He returned bearing horrific tales of hate-filled voting, anonymous feedback, oompa-loompas and a hand puppet named Mr Flibble... +And with him, he brought back 10 commandments on how to survive in the seedy underworld of amateur fiction... +This mad ramble was inspired by a thread on the Author's Hangout asking about commandments for writers. I can't credit anyone for the idea, as I've forgotten who it was, but you're not having it back. It's mine! +I came up with the deranged idea of writing a self-help guide for Lit writers. I came up with the problem that maybe I didn't have any right to. What the hell do I know? I'm not prolific like Killer Muffin, nor clear and concise like Weird Harold, nor constantly correct like Rumpleforeskin. What do I have to write about? +Then I realised that there were other writers like me, the true amateurs, who get intimidated by the big bad authors. ""How can I ever write like Whispersecret?"" you ask. Bad news, you probably won't be able to. But what you can do is read this and create your own little niche. Be an amateur writer; if I can do it, so can you! + **1) It's okay to be bad:** +This doesn't mean that you shouldn't try and improve your writing. If you don't want to improve, then what are you doing in the Writer's Resources? What this commandment means is that you shouldn't worry about not matching the top authors. You look at some of the work by the best authors on this site and think, ""Fuck, I'll never be as good as that."" The thing is, you don't have to be. Hell, Jeffrey Archer isn't as good as most of the authors on this site. Just write to your standard, no-one else's. +It doesn't matter if you don't think that you're very good, just give it a go. As soon as one person reads and enjoys your story, then you're officially an author. Sounds good doesn't it? +Don't worry; let go and relax. Just write. You may be pleasantly surprised by the results. + **2) Think of a plot** +It doesn't have to be ""Grapes of Wrath"" or ""To Kill a Mockingbird,"" but you must have some reason why your characters are having sex. Sounds difficult? Don't worry it's simple. +Think over your sexual exploits. How did you end up getting horizontal? Okay so maybe it was just a case of feeding him/her alcohol until the beer goggles took effect, but even that's better than some of the stories here. +Admittedly one of my earlier stories was described as ""giving an idea where XXX movies get their plotlines from,"" but at least the characters were having sex for a reason. The reason may only have been an aphrodisiac, but the key here is making it possible, even if it's not plausible. + **3) Put something of yourself into your characters** +Find something which you know about, which you've experienced and put it into your story. I am an insomniac, so when I write, sometimes I make my main character an insomniac too. I've written a story with a character masturbating to get to sleep. If you put something real in there, you'll strike a chord with everyone else who's experienced that. +Personality traits are good too. Someone once sent me feedback congratulating me on one of my stories. She loved it because I'd put in a sequence where the male character tries to avoid answering a question by pretending to be doing something else and avoiding eye-contact. ""My brother does exactly that!"" I myself do exactly that when I want to avoid answering a question and the fact that I put it into a story reached her. +Steal other people's quirks, steal your own and put them into your characters. It'll make them real, as opposed to 2D. Which brings us onto... + **4) Thou shalt not use stereotypes** +People don't like constantly hearing about blondes with 5-ft legs and 32 F bras. Or about virgins who are gagging for it. Or about men who have 14 inch penises. FYI, the longest penis according to the Guinness Book of World Records is 13 inches. If you can beat that, then you're a record breaker. Someone on the board once said, ""If a character's dick is described as 14 inches and thick as a coke can, I don't think ""Mmmm"" I think ""ouch."""" +This doesn't mean only put ugly people into your stories. This is fantasy; you're allowed a bit of artistic license. You should just be very careful about who you do let in. 2D characters are rarely sexy. You can get away with the voluptuous blonde if you make her real. Otherwise she's just a cardboard cutout of a character. + **5) Use less/more description** +Description is a tricky thing. I have been slammed in the past for including too little. I find it difficult to wedge it in amongst the story. I have to make a conscious effort to force it in to give the reader some idea what my characters/ my scenes look like. +However there are stories on Lit which go over the top: ""She had blonde hair and blue eyes. Her nose was slender and she had a pear shaped face. Her earrings were gold with a blue stone in the middle and caught the light. Her lips were adorned with red lipstick and a little dimple in her chin which appeared when she smiled."" +No. Don't do it. Don't make me hurt you. That's not description, that's an instruction manual for a portrait painter. By the second sentence the reader will have fallen asleep. Readers need to know what things look like, but do credit them with a little imagination. Giving them a step-by-step outline gives them no freedom to think. +Picture your character/scene in your mind's eye. What do they look like? Pick out three or four details which are the first things you notice. I once wrote a story in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer universe and needed to describe Dawn. First four details I got were: Mousy brown hair, elfin face, tall, skinny. So I wrote my descriptive paragraph with those details. I could have gone further: small breasts, narrow hips, large eyes, etc, but I don't need to. Those who know what Dawn looks like don't need the description and those who don't can fill in the gaps themselves. +""She had golden hair, tied back in a ponytail. Her eyes were slanted slightly, giving an exotic tint to her face. She was slender and the short, white tennis dress she was wearing showed off her muscled legs to perfection."" +Who do you see from that description? I was actually trying to describe Anna Kournikova. It doesn't matter that you didn't see her exactly, you now have a vague idea of who I was trying to show you and your imagination filled in the gaps. I could have described her in a lot more detail, but then you wouldn't have been given any freedom to imagine. +Small addendum to the description section. Never use measurements unless you have a very good reason. Inches, cup sizes, etc are all no-nos. They restrict the reader's imagination. Plus when was the last time you found a man who can tell women's bra sizes from outside her clothing? + **6) Do your research** +Read a lot. I'm not talking about cracking open ""War and Peace,"" but it is well worth the effort to read other Lit author's work. +I wrote my first ever Lit story while I was still a virgin (under another nom de plume). No real life sexual experience at all and I wrote a story that racked up a 4.3 average vote (It's still floating around on Lit). It was rated as ""very realistic"" simply because I'd done extensive ""research""on other stories. +Another reason to read other stories is to nick bits. I'm not talking about extensive plagiarism, but learning from them. If you're not sure how to write a lesbian threesome scene, go see how someone else has done it. If you look hard enough, you should be able to find a lesbian who's written a threesome scene. If you're not a lesbian (or even a woman), then first-hand intelligence like this is invaluable. +There'll always be someone who knows better than you. Go find them and learn from them. + **7) Learn to take advice** +I hate taking advice. I really don't like the thought that anyone knows better than me. However the sad fact is that people do, so I've had to learn to live with it. +A lot of the people who know better than you and me are to be found on the Literotica forums. Try going to the Author's Hangout and listen to people such as WildSweetOne, DeliciouslyNaughty, TheBragis, WhisperSecret, KillerMuffin, JonHayworth and RayDario. Hell even I manage to put on something worth reading every now and again. If you have a question, then ask it. They won't bite. +The Story Discussion Circle is one of the most useful things on Lit. Put up your story and you'll get it critiqued by other authors. Rumpleforeskin hangs round here a lot of the time. Learn to love him; he's annoying almost always correct and ridiculously helpful. You'll also learn a hell of a lot from looking at other people's stories. If you point out other people's mistakes, then you'll be less likely to repeat them in your own stories. + **8) Don't worry about grammar** +Don't worry, I'm not going to talk to you about grammar. It's deathly dull to those who don't understand it and incredibly easy to those who do. So I'm not going to try and explain it here. There are two reasons why you shouldn't worry about grammar if you don't understand it: 1) If you don't understand how a semi-colon works, why should your readers? 2) Editors are wonderful things. +3 Steps to perfect grammar in your stories: +> 1\. Go and find another author. Preferably one who knows what they're > talking about. Try the Volunteer Editors list or the Author's Hangout. > > 2\. Ask them to edit your story. > > 3\. Enjoy your grammatically corrected story. + If you don't know how to do it, then find someone who does. You may have to try a few before you find someone who has the time and the inclination to go over your story, but most will be flattered that you actually want their opinion. + **9) Work on your dialogue** +Dialogue writing is something that everyone can do. It's just a question of writing what you hear and say. If someone talks to you, then you can steal their mannerisms and use them for a character. Steal your own if you want. +""I am not going to have sex with you. You don't attract me."" +Simple enough sentence. Now think about your character. In your mind's eye, how would they say that sentence? +""I aint gonna fuck you sweetheart. You don't get me horny."" +""I'm not going to do it with you. You're just not my type."" +""Look, I'm sorry. I just don't wanna have sex with you. It's not you, I'm just not into you right now, you know?"" +Think about how your character would put that across. Say it aloud to yourself to see if it sounds right. Although don't do it in public, people will stare. +Never balk on using a swear word. If you think your character would say fuck, then make them say fuck. Don't bottle it and make them say darn, it won't work. If your readers are offended by your story's language, then that's their problem. You're writing erotica, so say fuck if you mean fuck. It's not as though there are children reading. + **10) Enjoy yourself** +Fuck it, go nuts. Who gives a damn about what I think? If you wanna write, write. Have confidence in yourself and don't let anything bring you down. Think of your ego as an airbag, protecting you from harm. Dammit, you are the greatest. Go out there and prove it. +Remember with sufficient balls and bluff you can blag anything. There is no spoon... + _The Earl is a recognised genius of the Lit world.

You know the hot guy or girl that everyone wants but you have just never been able to get with. There are a lot of magazine articles and how-to books out there, but most of them are total bullshit. The person you desire just does not desire you! Do you wonder why? Maybe it was how you presented yourself that turned them off. You are correct. Here are ten things you can do to prevent that from happening next time. This simple advice is short, to the point and is easy to follow. + **1\. Show your wealth** \-- sounds corny, right? Sometimes the tried and true method is the one that works. Take the object of your desire out on a date. Old fashioned yes, effective yes and not hard to do. There are many nice places to take them and begin to show your affection. However, they could say no or you could meet up with them when you are already out and about. If this is the case, sit with them, buy them the drink of their choice and eat your meal with them as they eat theirs. Don't worry about being offensive, they will like your confidant attitude. + **2\. Get them drunk** \- this is a continuation on from step one. As the night goes on, they get drunker and you get better looking. It becomes easier to talk to one another and inhibitions fly right out the window. However, if this is not working you can always move directly to step three. Please remember step three is a last resort. + **3\. Roofie** \-- if you can't get the object of desire drunk, then slip them a roofie. This will help make them relax and then you can have your way with them. + **4\. Lie about something** \-- yes, lie about yourself, your car, your house and your job. You know everyone does it. Make yourself sound wonderful, but do not exaggerate too much. Make it believable. Remember if it sounds too good to be true, then it is. Tell them how successful you are and the things you are working toward achieving. Tell them your future plans, even if they are false and you just made it all up right on the spot! + **5\. Promise them the world** \- tell them how much you are looking for someone to share your future, but just can't find someone with the same values. Yep, feed them full of bullshit, because in the end, you just want to fuck them. + **6\. Fondle them** \-- the odd touch of the hand here, brush against their thigh ... did they move away? If they didn't, keep on touching them, increasing the frequency of your touch. If they did move away, keep touching them anyway, but innocently and less often, slowly increasing the pace until they move towards you. When they begin to fondle you in return, move to step seven. + **7\. Talk dirty** \-- move close, whisper in their ear, ask them to dance or go for a walk in the park. If they say no, then buy more booze and keep fondling them. If they say yes, get close. Keep whispering in their ear, telling them what you want to do with them. Each whisper should ignite the passion of the other person. + **8\. Seduce them** \-- when they begin to respond to your dirty talk, pull them close and kiss them. Tell them you just can't help it, they are so hot you just had to do it. Make out until you can't stand it anymore then ask them if they want to be alone with you, you know by this point, they are drunk and want to be with you. + **9\. Find an excuse to undress** \-- Somehow, you found a quiet spot and your clothing fell off. Both of you are naked, horny and drunk. The only thing left is sex and I don't think you need help with that part. You have been successful; you got someone you wanted to sleep with you. If these steps do not work, move directly to step ten. + **10\. Pay them ... a lot** \-- if the person you want to sleep with you says no, shoots you down and possibly even embarrasses you, resort to this step. Lie and say you fucked them; they were bad in bed and then go find a hooker. Get laid and have fun! +* +Please, if you have read this and want to have sex, do not follow this advice, unless you plan on a life of celibacy.

The difference to be honest, is often nothing more than a Johnson and Johnson wipe. With tensions high, lust in the air, it's so easy to forget the most basic of hygiene tricks that can really prevent putting a damper on good clean sex. +It maybe curiosity or pure voyeurism that has led me to delved into the inner world of women who love sex for pleasure and work and these are the dirty, the filthy and shocking stories they've thrived on sharing. +Tip one: +Smells can cast a shadow over the pleasures of passion. +There are few thing more pleasurable than a shower before slipping between the sheets. Yet in a rush, with your heart beating with anticipation some smell traps are easy brushed over. +For Jamie the gym was where she met her new lover. After he was ushered in into the shower she waited between the sheet for the smell of fresh soap to drift into the room. +With his body fresh and warm she closed her eyes; smells filled her senses as her lips tingling from every movement that skin touched skin. Sweet, fresh, natural and then her tongue opened a crease of skin tucked between his balls and the stale taste sweat began grinding on her tongue. In a moment passion is lost. +30 seconds more in a shower and that acrid smell would have been washed away forever. +Tip two: +Clean your back bottom +It is in this region that the darkest of smells come forth. +It was at the start of a long deep massage that Naomi's fingers laid onto gorgeous John's shoulders. His body twitched as her hands moved oil down his backbone. +By this time she was positioned comfortably sitting on his butt when a little puff, an unusual smell came and disappeared so quickly. +Down her hands moved onto his lower back and this is where it gets a little frightening. She wedged her fingers gently to open his legs just a tad and froze. Oh lord what do you say? ‘Darling you've got a smelly bottom'. Ignoring the evidence her hands curved around his tight butt and then began to spread his checks and there was no escape. A small dark streak coloured his lily white butt. +It was an Angel who threw the life raft. A hot spa that overlooked the bay had filling so under her strict guidance they showered then quickly they sank into the warm water. It saved a tragic moment. +Its hard to see if your own bottom is clean and so often its overlooked. Wash wash wash up and down, use a douche if you like anal play. For women as well do a quick vaginal douche, just push water into your vagina to clean out any discharge, at least just before sex. +Tip Three: +Smells smells smells, and the list is extended just a little more. +Lady Dove, a stunning dominatrix had a favourite client. His one request was that Dove not shower for days before they met. For hours before her client's appointment she'd wear damp shoes and socks. It did the trick. ""Do I smell? Really?"" She screamed down at me as she threw her makeup on. Two steps towards her and you don't forget that stale smell of feet. +For most lovers the uninvited taste of feet during sex is disgusting. On my lover's birthday I fulfilled almost very man's dream by inviting another woman to join us. She was cute, I give her that. As our bodies played twister and with my eyes shut until I mistook my lover for her foot. The taste was torture. No amount of brushing my tongue, nor Listerine afterwards could remove that skanky smell. +Ladies, gentleman, wash your feet, even between the toes before sex. +Tip Four: +Clean your toes. +Now everyone, literally everyone seems to have tried anal sex, so its onto the next big trend. My money is on foot fetishes becoming the new norm. +Believe it or not a deep suck of a man's big toe can make him spontaneously combust. It was years ago that my good friend Jack did a course in the gentle art of toe sucking. His new partner was a farmer from out the deep west. ""Harriet, his toes were perfectly shaped, sucking heaven, except the cow manure that was stuck under his nails."" +Tip Five: +There are traps for women too. With two minutes before I met some lover I threw on nail polish to cover an unsightly fungal nail. He walked through the door, sucked my toes then kissed my lips. It was a dreadful moment where I tasted that undeniably strong smell of drying polish. +Tip Six: +As your lover knocks on the door pull back those nostrils hard, in a mirror, and look right up your nose before sex. +Let me tell you of a very refined man who pulled up in his shining BMW and a reward for me in his pocket. As I licked around the base of his ball I glanced up to witness the joy in his eyes. All I could focus on was a great chunk of gooie white snot that was lodged up his nose. +Tip Seven: +""I drank a can of pineapple juice three hours ago, it makes my cum taste really good"" said Grant. No. No it doesn't. +Tip Eight: +Perfume should be used sparingly and not where the tongue might go. +Armpits laced with deodorant may smell divine, but have you ever let your tongue slip inside that warm moist place? Deodorant's can taste like mercury, as that's what's often in them. +Tip Nine: +The mouth is the most intimate place and a bad taste is usually easily avoidable. +Brush and floss your teeth to remove any old food that's caught in your gums. Coffee tastes divine, but stale coffee breathe can be simply disgusting, best to avoid coffee just before sex. +Tip 10: +Throw used condoms in the bin. +As a young naïve lover I met the real Dorian Gray, blonde, muscular, charming, arrr.

We're not even really super-open folks... we ""swerve"" around more than swing and we really don't make a huge effort to be wild ""open"" people. But since we've both been asked so many times in so many ways how we make it work so well, here's what I've got... but by no means do I consider myself any sort of an expert on this, I don't study this subject, and I'd really love more input, ideas, etc. There aren't many guides on how to have an open relationship and most of the ones I've found are scripted ""swinger"" sorts of things that really focus on sex and not on relationships, and don't quite match the magic that we have found ourselves by just ""letting things happen."" Also, take any sort of ""advice"" on this subject with a HUGE grain of salt, everyone has a different experience and by no means should you ever make major life decisions based on anyone's advice but your own. For your consideration, however, I'm posting this... its what has worked so far for us and I consider my experience useful because I'm about as insecure and straight as they come... which probably represents a good percentage of women considering the open relationship strategy. +To me, an Open Relationship is as follows: you always have your ""steady"" who knows you better than the whole world, but you can ""play"" around with other people who understand how this works, and it actually makes your relationship happier and more fulfilling. I believe there is an ""Open Gene"" just like there is a Gay Gene. Really, I do! You may or may not have the ""Open-ness Gene"" in your personal chemistry or in your current relationship. I am discussing generally hetero relationships only for simplicity, but the same general principles should more or less add up for gay relationships too... there's just too many ""his/her/he/she"" instances for me to make sense. +I think the ""Open gene"" is a little different for women and men: in women, the gene actually makes them mentally more like a dude... it requires them to be more empathic towards their sig. other, and ultimately enables them to detach the ego from sex and things leading to sex, thickens their soft skin against insecure feelings of betrayal or rejection, and focuses them instead on pursuing their own fantasies and self-love. (Mind you, this idea is coming from an otherwise totally insecure high-maintenance Princess, so that I have concluded this is kind of freakishly awesome, and the only reason I'm capable of this is my strong empathic nature: because I am really good at ""feeling others' pain/pleasure"", it enables me to actually get turned on when my boy is having it off with someone else. Outside of this area, I am probably one of the most insecure, unstable, totally girly people I know). +The reason the gene manifests differently for women is that we have some extra layers programmed over it... we generally have learned more insecurities and body image problems, and most of us aren't sexually confident or aggressive enough to overcome that, even when its for our own pleasure. Sometimes, these issues block our ability to empathize with our lover. If a girl discovers her guy scoring with the Swedish bikini team and it makes her horny and oddly proud, then she's open. If it makes her feel ugly and rejected, she's either not open or she has HUGE insecurities getting in the way. +In men, who generally know more directly what they want, the gene manifests itself more simply. A guy with the fully developed open gene delights in his lady taking charge of her fantasies and pursuing happiness, rather than considering her his ""claimed territory."" If a guy sees his lady gasping in ecstasy with someone else and his first thought is an erection and not a fistfight, then he's open. If it makes him start that fight and yet he still wants to chase after other gals, then his real agenda is claiming as many females as possible and he's not really open either. He's just a caveman on the prowl, trying to claim as many females as possible and dominate the gene pool. In essence, he is lacking that important empathy that makes this work. +Yikes, that was harsh. OK, this is hard to explain! Let try another way: If you are often simply and genuinely empathically happy when your partner finds sexual joy, no matter what the circumstance, regardless if you are involved or receiving equal joy at the time, then you _definitely_ have the gene. If you are not empathizing with your lover's pleasure, and instead you find yourself tangling sex up with all sorts of hangups, (i.e. constantly comparing yourself to people your partner wants, holding him or her responsible for all your sexual happiness, or otherwise interpreting his or her desires as affronts to your self or your own attractiveness), then you may just not have that gene. Hopefully, if you're having problems being open, you just might need to free it up -- you may need to do some deep dives to fix up your self-esteem and figure out what really turns you on. +When either party starts consistently, repeatedly setting/enforcing a particular boundary on the other, this means (IMHO) that the empathy is weak in the relationship, and the ""open"" gene might we weaker in one than the other. If you're low on empathy and/or the gene, upping your ""open-ness"" easily degenerates into a sort of ""tit-for-tat"" negotiation, which seems like a horrible thing to do and impossible to resolve. All too commonly, one of the two people just plain doesn't have this gene and and thus it just won't work no matter how you try. I know plenty of couples where either the woman is not allowed to really ""play"", but the man is constantly breaking ""the rules,"" or the woman wants to be open but keeps getting all tied up in romantic issues and insecurities, rivalries, and bargaining. What's really happening is they aren't turned on by each other's exploits, there's too much ""me"" (respectively) in the way. +I guess that's why I'm putting my thoughts to paper here... I've seen a lot of open relationships not working and so I'm passing on the few things I know for sure that have worked. I know a lucky handful of open couples who are truly happy, open, free, confident, and incredibly sexy. They are not ""creepy"" or riddled with drama, they have no inhibitions, and they have discovered magic that really works for them. Some of them can even maintain long-term semi- romantic relationships outside of theirs, go on dates with other people, and so forth... some of them host play parties and teach what they know to others... and still others are simply dead-sexy, hot people who just can't keep their hands off all the other equally hot people they know (LOL... I think that's me and my boy). Whatever their game, all these amazing people we know generally agree with the concept of the ""empathic open gene""... heck, they taught it to us! +Here are the best things I can come up with for a checklist of sorts. + **1) Try your best to check with each other to make sure things are OK before you do ""major stuff""** +Even if its just a quick ""hey, I wanna ___; OK with you?"", take the time to do this! I've seen so many couples where one person (usually, the guy) fails to do this clearly, and so the girl doesn't see what's coming and she feels betrayed later. I know lots of couples who claim the ""goddess rule"" — that the woman has to ""call all the shots""... not for me, but for them, that's the trick (see #6). If you can't accomplish this ""check"" for practical reasons (you're not at the same party, you can't find each other, he's passed out) at least ask yourself, ""will this plan in some way be hot to my sig. other when I tell them later?"" ... its just a sanity check. Be especially careful to do this check when mutual friends are involved. Conversely, agree to never take offense when your sig. other asks for the wrong thing. You can't expect all your turn-ons to match. See #4. + **2) Avoid having lots of groundrules, or extremely firm ones.** +This means you're afraid, or you don't trust each other, or one has more empathy or Open Gene than the other. Things can turn nasty when there are rules to be broken, and every situation is unique; tune into what feels right and to each other, and then bring in rules when needed. You'll see, sometimes rules just don't apply! (Our only groundrules are here, or have to do with obvious hygiene stuff). Some people have a lot of groundrules and they think it makes them better at this. I have yet to agree, they fight more and fuck it up more than we do. :) + **3) Instead of lots of rules, have a ""trump card"" that closes something off, no discussion needed.** +Ours is a little simplistic but it super works, we call it the ""code word"" rule: every once in a while, there's a situation or person that one of us just ""doesn't like in that way"" and there's no need to explain it, end of discussion, end of situation/relationship. It means ""Hey that guy/girl/scene just totally weirds me out, please don't go there because it will bug me forever"", but we just use the code word (ours is ""Cookie Dough""), which is much simpler and easy to understand even when you're three sheets to the wind. Sometimes its just a vibe, and other times its something totally serious, like the person/scene has major drama, a bad history in your social cluster, contagious diseases, they're just plain gross and your partner has ""beer goggles"" on, or something about it/them makes you just plain more uncomfortable than you can handle. Call ""Cookie Dough"" (whatever word you make up)! You're taking care of the relationship and your sig. other when you do! + **4) Accept that you're going to mess it up, know you can fix it.** +You know you'll ""get it wrong"" and break the rules and even hurt each other's feelings and even so, agree verbally with each other that these failures don't count against you or your relationship (or anyone involved). After all, if you play with fire and you will get a couple burns! On that note, we have each messed up a little a few times (nothing major, but ya know, OOPS!), and here's the really amazing part: we just accept, love and respect each other even more afterwards (kind of like childbirth). You'll carry some scars, but its worth it to be free and know each other even more authentically, and besides, all scars fade. Sometimes,. all you have to say is, ""That's not how I wanted things to go but things got crazy, I'm sorry."" See #9. + **5) Know what you like, and tell your sig other.** +Recognize why you want something (just for your own growth as an open person), before, during and after. Kitty wants what Kitty wants. A basic physical urge is probably the very best reason you can have: your body tells you loud and clear when there is something great you won't find in any other situation, just the way a good mouser cat knows exactly when to pounce. If your sig. other can empathize with and celebrate your successful hunt, then you're doing it right. This is the ""open"" part of being in an open relationship. If they're not happy, you're not open. Excepting, of course, when Rule #3 above trumps this. + **6) Guys: be who you are, but be sure she is on par, especially for #5.** +If your sig other still hasn't found ""IT,"" be patient, encouraging, and seek input from others who have more experience. Try your very best to let the one with the weaker empathy and Open Gene ""go first"", so she can find out what is hot to her... its like practicing to fly. Women in particular have trouble nailing down #5. We're heavily deprogrammed for sex and sometimes empathy. This requires some maintenance and training. Secondly, remember that because of all our hang-ups, the very best thing you can do to help her out is make sure she feels totally and completely loved every step of the way. Encourage her, worship her, and butter up her ego every chance you get. You'll earn it back in spades with a hot, healthy, sexually ravenous woman as your ""partner in crime""! + **7) Reinforce the idea that you always have each other to ""come home"" to, nothing jeopardizes that.** +As you evolve, reinforce to each other that none of your adventures will put the relationship on the line or devalue your sig. other in any way: this is especially important if you decide you can each go after things you want separately sometimes ... see #5. This is the ""relationship"" part of being in an open relationship: its there and its solid. Hold it up! + **8) Stick with people who know what they're doing with this. Open relationships are most dangerous to the couple, not to its visitors.** +Avoid n00bs, drama, and folks who don't um, ""get it"" ... they might want real lasting relationships, megafights, true & everlasting love, kids, marriage, etc. 'Never ends well. We've been very blessed to have gotten into all of this with people who know way more than we do and without that, I'd have nothing to say here. That said, I've seen a lot of open relationships founder by bringing in the uninitiated. + **9) Laugh and expect little.** +Things might get awkward, or grand plans may fizzle. Have a comedy routine lined up just in case. Don't try to get laid all the time, that is where the empathy for each other's turnons can actually run dry. Its just sex, it will happen when it wants to. Plan to laugh and be laughed at when you fuck it up, its better than crying. See #4. + **10) Never ever ever EVER bring in issues from #4 when you're having a fight.** +What goes in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Don't fight with your penis/vagina, it doesn't have an ego... detach the two please, thanks." +4,14 Ideas for Valentine's Day,Tara Cox,How To,2012-02-02,2012-02-02,2022-01-04 08:24:35,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/14-ideas-for-valentines-day,What's a single girl to do on Valentine's Day,"['Single', ""Valentine'S Day""]",4.18,"14 Sin-sational (and Goody Two Shoes) Gifts for the Single Girl This Valentine's +February 14th...Valentine's Day...when we celebrate love and couples. But for the single girl, it is one of the toughest reminders of our status...single. On this day especially, it is the nastiest of curses. Everywhere we turn, we are reminded of being alone: the flower vendor on the corner of the freeway, the chocolates display at the supermarket, the giant cardboard hearts and balloons in the window of the card shop. It can be overwhelming. +Based upon the seven deadly sins, here is a list of naughty, fabulous, self- centered and SIN-sational ideas for the single girl to enjoy this Valentine's Day. +1) Remember your worst relationship (Wrath) -- Think back to the absolute worst boyfriend, date or relationship of your life. Visualize how it made you feel. Curse, throw things, beat pillows, whatever makes you feel better. Then thank your lucky stars that you are single this Valentine's Day. +2) Buy yourself the biggest, best toy you can find (Greed) -- And we are not talking about a doll either. A vibrator or dildo that makes even a porn star blush. +3) Take the day off (Sloth) -- Call into work, sleep in late, don't bother getting out of your fuzzy footed pajamas, watch chick flicks all day, order Chinese food. But whatever you do not leave the house, no need to face the day at all. +4) Hold your head up high (Pride) -- Dress up in your finest, do your hair and make-up to perfection, a manicure and pedicure. Looking your best will give you the ego boast you need to face this day with calm and dignity. +5) Arrange a hook up (Lust) -- After all there are single guys out there (or even unhappy married ones), who may not take this day as personally as us girls, but could use a little distraction too. +6) Spoil it for someone else (Envy) -- When your office mate goes on and on about the flowers and chocolates that her boyfriend/husband gave her, just smile sweetly and say 'That's so nice considering the...' then remind her of the last fight they had; the nastier the worse. Finish off with a simple, 'I am so glad that I don't have to go through that this year. Those chocolates go straight to my hips/tummy/butt.' Make sure that it is her worst physical feature not yours. +7) Make a fabulous dinner for yourself (Gluttony) -- All your favorites...ALL of them. Set the table with candles and wine. Then eat drink and be merry for tomorrow...is just another day. +Of course, if these options seem a bit mean-spirited for your taste, you could always try these ideas based upon the 7 virtues: +1) Remind yourself of all the good things about being single (Prudence) -- Sit down with a glass of wine and make a list. Don't dwell on the negatives but truly focus on what makes this time special. You can decorate your apartment/house just the way you like it even if that means pink floral bedspread with matching sheets and curtains. It is your room and no need to compromise on anything. You have time to go to the gym every day because you don't have to rush home and make dinner for anyone. The list is endless and as unique as we are. +2) Throw a party for all your single girlfriends (Justice) -- Make it a special day not just for yourself, but for other singles around you. +3) Remind yourself that this is just another day (Restraint) -- When your best friend goes on and on about the fabulous gift that her cheating boyfriend bought her, smile, bite your tongue and admire it with genuine good-will. Then thank your lucky stars it is her and not you. +4) Hold your head up high (Courage) -- Yeah, I know I used this one on the naughty list. But it is just as applicable to this one. The difference is all in your attitude. Looking your finest can give you courage just as easily as it can be a prideful, in-your-face response. It is all up to what is in your heart. +5) Join a dating website (Faith) -- Alright, so this year is a bust. But who knows perhaps Mister Right is out there somewhere. Give yourself the special Valentine gift of a chance to find him. +6) Give out Valentine's to all your friends (Hope) -- Remember elementary school and those silly little cards. Wasn't it wonderful giving them out to everyone in your class? Your best friend and your worst enemy. Why not try it again this year? Buy a box (or two or three) and give them to everyone you know...or even virtual strangers on the street. Bet you will make people's day. +7) Visit the local nursing home or a widowed neighbor (Charity) -- If you think that this holiday is hard for the single girl, imagine how difficult it must be for the elderly who have often lost the one true love of their lives and are spending the rest of their days alone. So take a couple of hours, load a box with crafty items to make special cards or download some oldie but goodie tunes for dancing the blues away then make a real difference in someone's life. +So whether you are naughty or nice this Valentine's Day, remember that you are special and deserve the absolute best. And sometimes the best is...YOU. As for me, I am going to be naughty and nice; selecting a couple ideas from each list. Why don't you give it a try?" +5,2016 Literotica Reader's Choice Awards Winners,Literotica,How To,2017-09-06,2017-09-06,2022-01-04 08:24:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/2016-literotica-readers-choice-awards- winners,"The best of 2016 - as chosen by you, the reader!","['Contest', 'Story Contest']",,"The stories and authors below were chosen by our readers as the best of 2016, in voting which took place [here](http://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?t=1443374).

The number 2 correlates to B, or the second letter in the English alphabet, while the number 10 denotes the tenth letter, which is J."" +A starry-eyed Al Roker will be crowned Miss Teen USA, before my publications find their way onto Oprah's Read o' the Month Club. +Strawberry-flavored cum, my articles are easy to swallow, but not for everyone. +From corn cob dildos, to guys with two dicks, I strive to capture the human condition in my work. Whether it's women with two assholes, or dudes with three balls, our slave species is displayed via my literary offerings. +Oddly enough, all my stories are true. I know, since they happened to me. +Who am I? +A veteran of the swing scene, the business card reads Hugh Mungus. Even though I haven't had a date in decades, I've managed to hook-up with over 5,000 women. +Shorter than a direct flight from El Segundo to Playa del Rey, the only time I turn heads, is when those craniums look away. Less attractive than the late Abe Vigoda exercising nude, my sexual arsenal was never fully stocked. +Hence, if I'd been able excel in the coliseum of coital cavorting, anyone can. +From the front lines of fornication comes a tale as anticipated as liverwurst- flavored Coke. A publication less successful than Macaulay Culkin's acting career as an adult. A literary offering more useless than opening a GAP in a nudist colony. We're talkin' another anecdote — complete with insider tips — for the single male swinger. +Look, you're smart. You don't require some motivational speaker — who sees you as nothing more than a paycheck — telling you how to get laid. Should you be curious, however, as to what it's like on the other side of the wall at your local hump haven, peruse a creamy fistful of my adventures, here on Literotica. +Unlike so many pop psych resources, my articles are free. I just have a story to tell — actually over 5,000 stories — and needed a venue at which to do so. Thus, I'm grateful Lit' provided me this outlet. +Let's face it. With all the self-help publications these days, it won't be long before The Idiot's Guide to Breathing hits a bookstore near you. Only idiots buy Idiot's Guides. It says so right there in the title. Again, you don't need an instruction manual, when it comes to finding sex. +Such stated, a little extra help never hurt. Hence, I'm happy to provide. +The Naugahyde couch creaked under the weight of half a ton of human flesh. This was a five-on-one, and everybody had somehow managed to congregate on the butthole brown sofa. +To our right, a porn — with no budget — skipped across a projection screen. A massive pair of trimmed balls slapped against some cameraperson's lens. Whomever had been operating the Canon XL-1 — over a decade ago — had obviously fallen asleep. +""Guy's got three freckles on his right nut, and a crucifix-shaped scar on his left,"" I observed, viewing this nameless actor fuck some chick in a nun's habit. ""Unless this dude watches his own performances,"" I pondered, ""I know more about the underside of his baby balloons than he does."" +The bastard's jizz berries were obviously too close to the screen, as the camera lost focus for a couple seconds, before coming in crystal clear. +And that's where the DVD got stuck — right there, during an extreme close-up of some XXX thespian's plum satchel, and hamflower. +Turning away, so as not to detract from my current engagement, I thought to myself, ""Ninety-five percent of these flicks is tits and ass. We had to freeze on this oversized wrinklepurse, and gargantuan anus?"" +It was all superfluous, since six of us were makin' our own porn — sans camera — here in the backwoods of Missouri. +Known as Pyramid of Pleasure, the venue in question is sadly no more. Like all edifices of ecstasy, this baby eventually ""up and vanished, like a fart in the wind."" +One side of POP was pure strip club. The other — sporting two XXX theaters — was dedicated to the swinger in us all. In between, a dingy dive bar fueled the fuckin' with rebated gutrot. +Stuffed on Pappy's, Scottish Arms haggis, and Urban Chestnut Schnickelfritz — yeah, we're talkin' The Lou — the two guys on either side of me looked like they might pop. Stoking their sausages, they patiently awaited their respective turns. +Doggystyle, in front of me, was somebody's wife. Said somebody was receiving skull from his spouse, while I ground my Arabica beans against the ass end of his missus. +Beyond the door to the theater, some drunk was mixin' up bum gravy in a bathroom across the hallway, and makin' no effort to hide it. +Through ventilation slats in a particle board wall, I could hear tires crunching over hot stones, as cars parked in the lot outside. +Pyramid of Pleasure was obviously a hybrid swing club. And like all sex shacks, POP had to remain inconspicuous, in order to survive. +Those you refer to as ""government"" are nothing more than criminals. They hate us so deeply, they'll do anything to keep us suffering. To them, that's ""job security."" +If everybody's happy, we realize we've no need for these felons, pretending to be our loving ""patriarchs,"" so they can cut themselves huge paychecks. Thus, bureaucracy has to generate fear and turmoil within us. +Only when we're frightened, do you we run to them, screaming for help. Hence, why they cause all our problems. Again, ""job security,"" so we feel as though we need them. +This means screw shacks — where people actually feel good about themselves — have to hide amid the landscape. Case in point, Pyramid of Pleasure — which was camouflaged at the edge of a rustic field. +Today's meeting wasn't one of chance. In the wee hours, the evening prior, I'd responded to an online classified this afternoon's couple had posted on a sex search engine. +The lass was lovely — happy, and high-spirited. Short spikes for hair, she dropped to her knees, as soon as the six of us entered the theater. +Prepared, hubby positioned a folded blanket beneath his wife, to prevent floor burns. +Awash in cupidity, the woman — we'll refer to as Nora — instantly began squeezing our cocks through our shorts. +The place — probably swamp cooled — was stifling, as we all rushed to remove our clothes. +In the bar a wall away, the crisp tinkle of glassware, and bottles kissing the speed rack, could be heard. The swift pump of colas being siphoned from bladder bags pierced the partition. +Once our pants were down, and Nora's clothes were strewn across the floor, she inhaled as many corporeal carrots as she could. This woman was ravenous, and 210 was her thing. +We'd have been fools to object, since the object of our lust was a seasoned snake charmer — superlative at her craft. A phallophile, she simply loved cock! +She probably spent an inordinate amount of time in the produce section, around the bananas, cucumbers, and zucchinis. Her family was almost assuredly sick of gnawin' on hotdogs every night, since that's all mom ever made! +Every car in the garage was stick. Every vehicle she ever owned, much less drove, was manual. In fact, she'd never learned to pilot an automatic. +Baseball cards, or comic books, were typical items hobbyists collected. For Nora, however, it was microphones used by famous people. +Every morning, it was sausages for breakfast. Lunch always included popsicles. Every evening, it was corn on the cob. +The woman was transfixed — addicted, if you will — with no desire to be cured. +For this, we were all grateful, as she rapaciously coveted each of our shafts. She couldn't have been happier, if she'd been the Pope stranded on an island, alone with a bunch of kids. +Drooling from zipper ripper to mancream maker, she'd slurp one, while stroking two others. If only her pastor could see her now. +The enclosed room — probably 400 square feet — became a sauna. All those bodies, generating all that energy, in a confined space, overrode any climate control system the proprietors had installed. +As such, we all sweated profusely. +Perspiration streaming down Nora's heart-shaped ass embodied the effort she was pouring into her passion. +After 15 minutes on the floor, I figured if she wasn't cramping up, she would be soon. +""Let's head to the couch, so we can fuck you, hon,"" I motioned to a sofa that was definitely not the envy of the other couches at the manufacturing warehouse. +""Brownie!"" +""Yes, sir?"" +""Pyramid of Pleasure!"" +The other sofas snickered. Some cowered in fear, backing away from Brownie, as if he was now diseased. +""Ex— Excuse me, sir?"" the young couch stared in horror. +""You— You heard me, son,"" the Priya Sofa Astoria Grand softened his tone a bit, aware he'd just levied a death sentence on the young couch. +I didn't even wanna consider how many loads the sofa had taken. ""Uh,"" always chivalrous, ""why don't you hop up on the couch, hon, so we can help you get off."" +Patting the cum-crusted davenport, I directed traffic, as Nora planted her naked ass on a cushion that was probably Hitler reincarnated — forced to endure the most hideous penance. The piece of furniture was literally a cum target, sat on by more fat, naked guys than the toilets at a weight watchers camp. +Eager to screw, Nora complied, spreading her legs, and holding her ankles aloft. +Snatching the blanket from the other end of the room, I slid it to the edge of the sofa. Kneeling before the woman, I suckled her slit. +On either side of her, the two dudes who'd inhaled enough Ted Drewes concretes to expand their waists to insane proportion, diddled their dicks. +Bucking beneath, Nora ground her pelvis into my mouth. Unaware how bony her cunt was, she thrust against me, causing my teeth to stab my tongue. +It was a pain I anticipated each time I licked the plate clean. Blood draining into my mouth, I ingested that familiar metallic taste, like I'd just sucked a handful of nickels. +Arching her back, Nora launched a successful mission into my maw, biting her own lip, before returning to a supine position. Grunting, she snorted, ""Fuck me, baby. Fuck me with that monster cock!"" +Sometimes makin' 'em wait is fun, and heightens the experience. In this case, however, Nora was more ready to go than freshly-prepared Grubhub fare. +Applying shrink wrap, I prepared to board and pillage. +Everyone in attendance was losing pounds per second, due to the water weight we were shedding. +As I entered her sausage wallet, I'd have been more successful clutching a greased pig, than I was attempting to grasp Nora's thighs. +Halfway inserted, I could feel myself sliding headfirst onto the woman, unable to grip ground with my wet feet. +The crazed caballeros astride Nora didn't care, as they emptied their clips on fine, female face. +Meanwhile, I toppled, toes digging into the cedar beneath, as I fell. Calf muscles releasing, I collapsed apologetically upon the poor housewife. +""No problem,"" the cool chiquita confirmed. +Following three unsuccessful attempts to pound in this posture, I flopped atop the other sofa, and continued to stroke. Frustrated, I knew there was an answer to this conundrum. +Some other guy gave it a go with Nora, encountering the same disappointing results, tumbling as soon as he took the plunge. +""Occam's Razor,"" I whispered, glancing across the room to my boots, hastily stashed in the corner. ""Of course!"" +A third suitor face-planted into the floor, as conditions were just too humid to hump. +Or so it appeared. +By that time, I'd already bounded back onto the battlefield of bliss, sporting what seemed felicitous fuckwear. +Three thrusts in, and it was a whole new ballgame, so to speak! I'd become a superhero. Not only were my boots gripping the slippery surroundings, they did so in any position. +Dropping like cell service on the Moon, the other penises participating were sidelined, due to atrocious playing conditions. +To those now relegated to watching from the opposite sofa, I turned, ""Wanna give it a go?"" Removing my galoshes, I offered them to any willing wieners. +And so it began: the origin of the fuckboots. Nowhere near as iconic as Eddie Van Halen's Frankenstrat — sealed behind glass for fascinated tourists to photograph — this footwear made impossible fucking possible, over the years. +That afternoon at Pyramid of Pleasure, we traded off using the boots, the way we traded off using Nora's pussy. As a result, the female orgasms flowed like solid steel at 32 degrees Fahrenheit. +I never said I was worth a damn in the sack. Thanks to the fuckboots, however, I'd now be able to hump in Florida quicksand, during a Category 5 hurricane. +— authored by Hugh Mungus" +7,24/7,Joseki Ko,How To,2004-06-19,2004-06-19,2022-01-04 08:24:40,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/24-7,The in's and outs of a lifestyle choice.,"['Behavior Modification', 'Slave', 'Slave Find']",3.99,"A Twenty four seven lifestyle is a choice that some claim can't be made. They choose to tell us that it is impossible to have a D/S relationship twenty four hours a day seven days a week fifty two weeks a year. They may be correct. Let's look at their point of view. Is it possible to have someone tied up indefinitely, punished indefinitely, or at the brink of orgasm indefinitely? Well no actually it's not. But if that is all that you care to have in a D/S relationship then by definition it is impossible. So you may quit reading now. +Ok for those of you still reading, that is by no means all that goes into a D/S relationship. There is cuddling, sharing, chores, behavior modification and training. Let's start with a few examples. It is not always necessary to pick out the clothing your slave will wear. Instead go through the slaves wardrobe discarding all that you don't like. Next define to your slave how you want them to dress. This might include only thongs and blue jeans for instance or maybe only dresses. Define the way you want your slave to look. +We should discuss money. Some of us have to have a second income in order to pay the bills. Some of us don't. If you have to have your slave work, be prepared to at least do some of the housework. Otherwise they will burn out very quickly. Also do you need to marry your slave? I'm not talking love here I'm talking finances. It may be financially advisable to have your slave as a spouse for tax purposes, insurance and other government agencies. I've met a few who could afford a live in slave and all the medical expenses associated with that. I'm just not one of them. +Next we have hygiene. I took my slave out to a mall where there was a bed and bath shop and we spent several hours defining how she was going to smell. I have a personal predilection for vanilla. That colored most of my choices. But she begged well, to be able to smell like other things. I sampled or smelled each product and we wrote down a list of what she was allowed to buy. Next we went to a styling salon, there I met a hairstylist and defined exactly how I wanted my slave to look. While I was there I picked out nail patterns so that for the next year she has 7 patterns to choose from. Two I noted down for special engagements. Now wasn't that simple. For an initial investment of a day I have now defined exactly how I want my slave to look. I can change this any time I like, adding to it or subtracting from it. +Now onto chores. Set a number of chores either per day or per week. These can be intensely time consuming for the slave, and not take much time for you at all. Cleaning is my favorite. Cleaning a house is a very serious investment of time. Checking however can be quick. Leave little sticky in untoward places that your slave has to find. If the slave doesn't find them all...well use your imagination. You should also spot check what your slave has done. Look at well traveled places as well as ones that don't get inspected very often. Such as light fixtures. I've picked up new slaves whose house was in such disarray that we had to start in a single room and work outward. Also pick a sexual chore, such as masturbation or plug insertion that reminds your slave who they serve and who owns them. +These can eat up large amounts of time. Now we get to the more hands on activities. Going out to a restaurant for instance. Order for your slave and make them finish eating it all. Making your slave eat an ice-cream cone is not necessarily in the same league as anchovies or avocado's. It can be fun to stretch your slaves palate. Sex stores also offer a wide array of possibilities. Having your slave demonstrate a product, undress before the staff or just pick out a video for you to reenact later. +Behavior modification such as not swearing or Bowing/curtsy to everyone you meet. No drinking at parties. Or the good old fashioned Sir or Ma'am to everyone, especially at parties. +I won't get into training here as we all have our own styles. Training games can be a lot of fun though so don't neglect them. Besides it makes your slave feel warm and comfortable to know that you take the time make of them something you desire more. I should mention that sending them to community college to become a masseuse for instance is also a great use of their time. +The most important part of living a 24/7 is that you just do it. It's okay if on some nights if you make love with your partner instead of the slave. Or if they wake you up yelling at you that your late for work. Don't sweat the small stuff. +And most of all, Have fun! Remember if we didn't enjoy it we'd be doing something else." +8,26DD vs. 36B,Stickyicky,How To,2004-05-14,2004-05-14,2022-01-04 08:24:41,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/26dd-vs-36b,A quick note on bra sizes.,"['Bra Size', 'Breast', 'Quick Note', 'Size']",,"Just a quick note on describing breast sizes for male (and, it seems, a few female) writers: +When describing a character in a story, the more details you can throw in the better. We don't want to know that a girl has nice tits, we want to know how high they sit, what shape they are, what colour the skin is, what colour the nipples are, what they smell and taste like, and how big they are – which brings me to my main point. +""Her breasts were small/medium/large/grotesquely over-proportioned"" simply does not cut it if you want your reader to visualise them. The easiest way to put a size on a pair of mammaries is to put a bra size on them. +This sounds easy enough, but when you consider that most male writers do not actually own a pair (or bras to put them in), it is easy to understand how so many people fuck this up. +A bra size consists of: +A NUMBER +The number is the underbust measurement – the distance around the ribcage DIRECTLY BELOW the breasts. This number has NO bearing on actual breast size. In American sizing, this is in inches, whereas Australasian sizing is simplified to dress size (eg someone with an underbust measurement of 28 inches is around a size 8, 32inches is approximately a size 12, etc) +A LETTER +The letter is the size of the actual cup, and therefore the breast itself. 'AA' is the smallest cup size (to my knowledge) and fits a very small breast. A 'B' (my personal favourite) is the kind of breast which fits snugly in a medium-sized (male) hand, 'C' is where we start getting big enough to require a bra to keep the breasts sitting above their southern border. After that, a double letter generally means a half size, so a 'D' cup is big, 'DD' is slightly bigger, 'E' pretty huge, 'EE' even more so, and after that we're into custom-made territory. Please note that it is not very likely that you know many girls with breasts bigger than a 'DD' or 'E' – although my flatmate (roommate) happens to own a very natural pair of 30HH's. We've dubbed her bras the kissing hats (you can fit your whole head in each of the cups, if you can't figure it out from there you don't deserve to) +So lets put them together. A girl who wears a size 28DD bra is slim with very big knockers, whereas one who wears a size 36B would be quite 'big boned' but with fairly unsubstantial breasts. +Please do not be tempted to increase the number to imply larger breasts – you are simply making your heroine fatter, which can be especially confusing if you have already described her as slim. Also, please do not feel that your heroine needs giant hooters to get herself into a quality piece of erotic fiction (a mistake girls especially make). Go with what turns you on personally – you'd be surprised how many people think just like you – and keep in mind that a study of Playboy centrefolds has shown a distinct decrease in dimensions of featured breasts over the years." +9,The 3 R's,wife2hotblk,How To,2009-03-30,2009-03-30,2022-01-04 08:39:37,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-3-rs,"Examining reduce, re-use, recycle.","['Earth Day', 'Ecology', 'Environment', 'Reduce']",3.38,"In celebration of Earth Day, I want to look at some simple things that all families can do each and every day that would make a major difference to slowing if not reversing Climate Change. I want to focus on what has been coined as the new 3 R's: reduce, re-use, recycle. But before we look at the specifics, I want to begin with the basics: why your family should join mine in these efforts. +Family first. Since we are our children's first and best teachers, I think that the time we invest in teaching them about all things environmental is an excellent investment in our futures and theirs. It is never too early to begin either. At three, my daughter knows the difference between the bin and the recycle bag (sometimes better than my eighteen year old). +Saving money. In fact, in the UK most councils offer free recycling facilities to all residents, which means that recycling costs us nothing. There are examples too of how recycling can actually save you money though, such as my wormary, which produces organic liquid fertiliser and compost or reducing your energy consumption by turning down the thermostat. But in the USA recycling too can actually pay money. Although not as easy for many American families to place bags or special bins on the stoop (although some forward thinking counties and cities are offering curb-side recycling as in the UK), the profit from this activity can be used to fund extras or meet essential obligations. Before I left Los Angeles in 2006, there were increasingly mini-recycling centres often in the parking lots of grocery stores. Families could take their paper, metal and plastic products and turn them into paper...paper money that is. In some ways this is more incentive to recycle than the UK system. What if your family could pay for its holiday through recycling? Perhaps even clean up your street? I know that my three years old loves helping me to pick up trash in her park. Could your family do something similar? +Environmentally friendly. Like I said, the 3 R's are among the basics of environmentally friendly. It is one of the easiest things that we can all do to save this special planet for our children and grand-children. Alright, we have all heard the pundits talk about how recycling does not make a difference. So to clear up a few of those myths: +• Enough energy is saved by recycling one aluminum can to run a TV set for three hours. +• A steel mill which uses recycled scrap reduces related water pollution, air pollution, and mining wastes by at least 70 percent. +• Creating one ton of recycled paper uses only about 60 percent of the energy needed to make a ton of virgin paper. +• Seventeen trees are saved for each ton of recycled newspaper. +• Recycling steel and tin cans saves 74 percent of the energy necessary to produce them. +• Today most bottles and jars contain at least 25 percent recycled glass. +Healthy living. It may not be immediately obvious how the 3 R's can make you healthier, but I have a couple of examples: +• Reduce your carbon footprint by walking to school, the store and anywhere else you can...also increases the amount of exercise you are getting. Walking is actually one of the best exercises there is. +• Eating fresher often means that there is less packaging as frozen, tinned and jarred products, which produce more waste also, are likely to have more added salts, sugars and preservatives. +• Reducing the carbon miles of your food by growing your own fruits and vegetables also allows you to grow them organically as well as having the benefit of reducing your stress through the pleasurable hobby of gardening. +Now that we have talked about the importance of the 3R's of reduce, re-use and recycle, let's look at each of them in turn. +Reduce...the Holy Grail +The hard truth is that we all need to reduce. Reduce the amount of money we spend. Reduce the amount of food we eat...and our waistlines. And reduce the amount of stuff we throw away. In fact when we look at the 3 R's of reduce, reuse, recycle, they are actually in that order for a reason. It is a hierarchy for a reason and reduce is the Holy Grail. Put in its simplest terms reduce means that we use less of the earth's resources and in any environmental scheme should be our first priority. That said, it is also the hardest to accomplish. +When I thought about all the things we do to be greener, the number of examples of reducing stumped me. I suppose the most obvious example of our efforts to reduce was the decision some months ago, not to purchase an automobile. My husband has the use of a company van, but even that is rarely used. The difficulty comes when we want to go anywhere as a family. The work van has only one bucket seat in the front that fits three people. Obviously this presents difficulties. Even on our Saturday shopping trips with my mother-in-law, I end up sitting in the back of van; a solution that is both dangerous and illegal for the children. About a year ago, when I was working full-time, we were seriously considering buying a vehicle. But in the end, we thought the expense was too much when you consider not just payments, but insurance, road tax, maintenance and gas. Instead, we signed up for StreetCar; a car rental scheme that you pay a monthly fee to join and an hourly or daily rate only when you need to use a car or van. Looking back, that was one of the best decisions we have made both for the environment and family finances. +The other obvious example I found of reduction was our decision a year ago to switch to bags for life. We now have a stack of them beneath our kitchen sink and faithfully use them for our Saturday shops. But I do admit to occasionally forgetting them when just running out to grab something quickly. When this happens though, we make certain to re-use (we'll talk more about that tomorrow) any plastic bags we get for outings or for small bin liners. Did you know that in the UK alone 100,000 TONNES of plastic bags are thrown away each year; that is the equivalent of 70,000 cars? So if there is one thing, I can encourage you to do, it is purchase bags for life. My store sells the sturdy plastic ones for about forty pence, the jute ones are about a pound, and the pretty cloth ones are about three pounds with a portion of the proceeds going to charity. Or it is very simple to make your own if you sew. +Speaking of which, sewing and mending our clothes is another excellent way of reducing. My boys from my husband to my sons are always wearing holes in their jeans on the inside thighs. Before the economic downturn, I admit we were likely to just toss them out and purchase new ones. But since I have not been working, we have instead taken them to the drycleaners and had them patched. The cost of the repairs is less than the cost of purchasing new (although I am committed to mending them myself from now on...a further savings). And we have reduced in a very small way the demand for jeans. +Of course, as I sit at my desk in my bedroom I am witnessing another reduction...the daylight streaming in through the open curtains. One of the first things I do each morning is open the curtains and the blinds. By using natural light when and where possible, we are reducing the amount of electricity that we consume and that the power grids must generate. We are also of course saving money on our bills. My husband is a genius at this; going around and turning off and unplugging everything he can each night before bed. I admit though that being American this whole switch on the plug thing still gets me and I often forget to do that, but I am improving. Of course, another example was turning down our thermostat during the winter and wearing heavier layers of clothes instead. In fact, I can think of only a couple of days this winter when we turned our heat on before night fall at all. +These are just a few ideas of ways that our family is reducing. There are many other things that we and you can do to cut back on the things we consume and help save our earth's precious resources. +Queen of the Re-use +If I give my family questionable marks on its efforts to reduce, I admit that when it comes to re-using I am the Queen. When I was a teenager there was a song, 'I was country, when country wasn't cool.' Well, I was re-using back when it was called hand-me-downs and everyone looked down on you for wearing them. Honestly though, I can remember being about five and having a distant second cousin visit. She had brought a bag of clothes that had been her daughter's, who had died. That may sound morbid, but I think my smiles and thanks for the 'new' clothes may have helped to let go of not only the clothes, but a bit of her grief as well. +If you were to look in my three year old's playroom, most of the toys you would see have been given to her second-hand from friends, purchased at charity shops or even salvaged from the bin...including her wonderful Little Tikes kitchen centre. But my re-using does not stop there, if you open my kitchen cabinets you will see stacks of old containers that once held spread, cottage cheese or something else. With the exception of the air-tight sealing bowls that my husband uses to transport his food to work each day, we do not purchase or use Tupperware, Serv-rite or any other type of plastic wear. And those plastic containers that once housed my produce such as strawberries, blueberries and peaches are now being re-used as pots for my spring seedlings. I also have a cabinet full of sauce jars that I am looking for ideas on how best to re-use. I have already filled several with nuts, bolts, nails and the like. But even after getting organised myself, I just can't bring myself to throw these into the recycle bag when I know that they are perfectly re-usable as they are. I have even taken to re-using my daughter's Fruit Shoot bottles by refilling them with concentrate fruit and water. Of course, a tad of a warning on this one: do not freeze plastic bottles as it can cause a cancer causing chemical to leach into the drinks. So I always replace the bottles after a few uses just to be safe. But then they can go into the recycle bag. +Even dinner last night was re-used food; better known as left-overs. I think one of the most beautiful examples of re-using is the folk-art form of quilting. Not only can worn-out old clothes be turned into colourful quilts, but they can tell a story: our history. I have also heard of people braiding old cloth to make rugs as well. Last year at the Green Show, I bought my daughter the cutest little purse made from old plastic juice boxes by a women's cooperative in the developing world. +Thinking back to my own childhood and the used toys and clothes that I was blessed to enjoy, I am glad that it has become the 'cool' thing to re-use. Not only do these items still have good life left in them, but they remind us that we, ourselves, re-use life's lessons to improve our world. So next time before you toss that item into the bin or even the recycle bag, stop and ask yourself could it be re-used instead: perhaps that wine bottle would look nice on a table with a candle or a few flowers or could that old t-shirt be cut into squares and used instead of paper towels or how about making puppets with old and mismatched socks. The ideas are limitless...I hope you will share your favourites with me as well. +Recycling...What it really is +Recycling has become the catch all phrase often used in place of the 3 R's. But in its truest form recycling means taking one thing and changing it, usually chemically, into another. This is not to say that recycling is without value; it is certainly better than putting the items in the bin where they will end up in landfills and leach chemicals into our ground water. It is though to say that before you place anything in the recycle bag, first consider if you could reduce or re-use it, because everything that ends up in the recycling bag will have to be altered before it can be used again. Even then it is cleaner to produce goods from recyclables than from raw materials. +Here are just a few reasons to make certain that after you have reduced the amount of waste your create and re-used as many things as possible that your family puts as many things as possible into the recycling bins: +• Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours -- or the equivalent of a half a gallon of gasoline. +• Each ton (2000 pounds) of recycled paper can save 17 trees, 380 gallons of oil, three cubic yards of landfill space, 4000 kilowatts of energy, and 7000 gallons of water. This represents a 64% energy savings, a 58% water savings, and 60 pounds less of air pollution! +• The 17 trees saved (above) can absorb a total of 250 pounds of carbon dioxide from the air each year. Burning that same ton of paper would create 1500 pounds of carbon dioxide. +• Recycling plastic saves twice as much energy as burning it in an incinerator. +• The energy saved from recycling one glass bottle can run a 100-watt light bulb for four hours. It also causes 20% less air pollution and 50% less water pollution than when a new bottle is made from raw materials. +• A modern glass bottle would take 4000 years or more to decompose -- and even longer if it's in the landfill. +Today is the actually a great day to talk about recycling. Each Thursday the council sends around men to collect our recyclables. The council gives us re- usable sacks, which we can use to collect all paper, cardboard, tin cans, aluminum, glass bottles and jars and plastic bottles. Unfortunately, they do not offer recycling for other plastics. As I have been writing this article that has been one thing that I have been especially mindful of: how much plastic packaging manufacturers use that cannot be recycled and that it is estimated takes over 500 years to decompose in landfills. +But it is not just our plastics, glass, metals and paper that we recycle. Thanks to a wonderful programme through our council, last year we were able to purchase a subsidized wormary to recycle our food waste into compost and liquid fertilizer for growing my own food. Actually, even though we may think that food thrown into the bin will degrade relatively quickly in the landfills, the biggest problem is the amount of methane, a dangerous green house gas, which it produces in that time. Methane is twenty times more potent than carbon dioxide and a major contribute to climate change. While my wormery cannot accommodate meat products I put all peels and unused fruits and vegetables into it. I should soon be harvesting my first patch of compost...just in time for my summer garden. +So how does my family do on recycling? Not too bad honestly. This week we had two bags of recylables and will only have two half full 13 gallon bin bags of other rubbish. Actually hubby and I got into a minor disagreement over the trash last night. One of the first rules of the 3R's is to only throw out your garbage when the bag is full. In our case though, it had begun to smell. I am still looking for a solution...if anyone has ideas they would be greatly appreciated. But for a family of three adults and one pre-schooler two large bags of recycling and one full 13 gallon bin bag in a week is pretty good I think. I imagine that there are single people, who put more than one bag in the bin each week. +So How You Doing? +In the spirit of recycling, I thought I would use those famous words from Friends character Joey. As we have looked at the 3 R's, reduce, reuse, recycle, I have shared with you ideas that my family are using to cut our carbon footprint on this precious Earth that we call home. Reducing is always a challenge, because it goes in the face of our societal values of having more and doing more, but it is the highest form of recycling. Re-using is something that has been natural for me through out my life. It may be challenging at times to creatively transform old household items into new uses, but this has become one of the staples of our efforts to be more environmentally friendly...and save money. Recycling has become the catch phrase for the 3 R's, but is strictly speaking altering one thing into another. It is important that we recycle as much as we possibly can, because making consumables from recycled goods is always cheaper and better for the environment than making them from raw materials. But we should recognise too that recycling should only be used after we have reduced and re-used. For our children and their futures, we must use all the arsenal of tools embodied in the 3 R's: reducing wherever we can, re-using everything that we possibly can, and recycling every item that our councils and recycling centres will accept. +So what can you do better? Remember though this is not about being perfect, but the little things that we can realistically do and continue to do. The things that may seem so small that you don't think they will make a difference: things that if we all did would make a huge difference." +10,"5-Minute Orgasm, For Ladies",Wordgoddess,How To,2005-03-22,2005-03-22,2022-01-04 08:24:42,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/5-minute-orgasm-for-ladies,"You want it, he's not in the mood.","['5-Minute Orgasm', 'Fast Orgasm', 'For Ladies', 'Quickie']",3.93,"For the purposes of this article, we will assume, that because 90% of women are straight, that you are, too. However, if you have a girlfriend, then please forgive me and simply apply what I say about ""your man"" to your woman. It's just easier than keeping on saying ""he or she"" and all that. +So, what's the point of this article? Well, most guys can wank in about a minute. Most of us ladies need a little more time than that. Like Jeff Foxworthy once said, women are like diesel engines. It takes us time to get going, but once we're running we can go a LONG time. This technique will get you off fast, so you know you're not left waiting several hours until your not-in-the-mood man's asleep before you can get some relief. Here's the scenario: +Your man just called. He had a shitty day at work, and he's all pissed off. He is so grumpy that all he does is grump at you, and you try to placate him with soothing words and promises of a peaceful homecoming as you gently end the call. +Meanwhile, before he'd called, you'd been thinking about what sexy lingerie you should have on for him when he gets home. You have on his favorite heels and everything, and you've even cooked his favorite meal. Your pussy is moist and your nipples are tingling. You imagine his lips brushing the side of your neck, and you get sweet little shivers. No doubt about it, you are really horny! +He said he'd be home in less than ten minutes, depending on traffic. +Well, crap, what's a girl to do? +You need the five-minute orgasm! +This will not work for every woman, because every woman is different. This is only a suggestion of one way to do this. Please, use your imagination and feel free to experiment! +First things first, you sexy thang, get changed into sweats or something so he doesn't realize what you've been doing! The last thing you need is him whining about feeling pressured for sex when he's so stressed out. +Next, head to the bathroom, get as undressed as you like, folding any such clothes and setting them on the counter so they don't wrinkle, and sit on the toilet. Make sure the fan is on and the door is closed and locked. If he arrives early or something, he'll think you're up to some serious bathroom reading and won't bother you for a little while. Relax. Take care of any outstanding potty business if you have to, and then sensuously wash yourself off from the nearby sink for about thirty seconds. Don't bother with toilet paper if you only peed; T.P. will dry you up. Let the warm water mix with your juices and cleanse you. +After that, run your fingers up and down your entire genital area, feeling your slightly hardening clitoris start to spring to life, and then move down to your slit. Feel around your outer and inner lips. Reach down further and feel your ass, running a fingertip over your tight opening back there, letting the moisture from the water mixed with your own wetness dampen the area. +If you like a little breast play, it's of course perfectly wonderful to unclasp your bra and feel your nipples, too, enjoying the weight of your breasts in your hands. If you are able, you may also want to take this opportunity to lift your breast to your mouth, flicking your nipple with your tongue, imagining your man doing the same to your nipple or your clitoris. Repeat on the other side. Don't linger too long, pleasurable as it is, or you won't make your deadline! +By now only a couple of minutes have passed, but you're hotter than ever. It's time to let those fingers do the walking. This will require a wee bit of coordination, but once you get the hang of it, it is so easy and intense; you'll wonder why you never did it before. +Take one hand (left is usually easier for the righties out there) and slip those fingers down to your slit and push in two fingers, nice and deep, until you feel a rough patch about the size of a quarter towards the front. Notice how great it feels when you wiggle your fingers up against it and how your clit jumps out when you push on it. That would be your G-spot! +Next, take your ring finger or pinkie of the same hand, and this is completely optional, but completely worth it in my opinion, and push gently against your tighter hole. It should let you right in, and you want to *just* slip in there. You won't try to penetrate to the inner sphincter, so don't worry about pain. This shouldn't hurt! +With your other hand, gather a wad of saliva from your mouth (saliva is the best feeling lubricant for this!) and slide your fingers over your clitoris, stroking gently, alternating with wiggling your fingers against your G-spot. You should also notice a delightful little tingle in your ass hole, too, even if you don't move your finger in there consciously. +Continue to alternate movements until you build momentum enough to do it all at once, and then go to town! About thirty seconds into the ""doing it all at once"" phase, you should be cumming about as hard as you ever have in your whole life, if not harder. + When you cum, you will likely notice that your pinkie or ring finger is driven deeper into your ass and your two fingers in your love hole are jammed in as deep as they can go while they wiggle against your G-spot, and the fingers on your clit are just moving as fast as they can to keep up with your gasping breaths and bitten lips as you hear your man walk through the door. +Congratulations, you made it!

""She thinks its gross."" ""She says it makes her sick."" ""She's a prude, a bitch, frigid."" ""That's not gonna change; it's just the way she is and she ain't never gonna change."" +Not necessarily. +She might never change, that's true. But what if maybe...just maybe by following these 7 tips you could change things. You could get your girlfriend to change from being a fellatio-phobe to being a fellatio-phile. Think of it, a girlfriend who's not only willing to go down on you, but who loves it. You dream of it, it don't you? Instead of _bob-bob-bob_ okay, all done; you get a long, deep, wet blowjob. You could have a girlfriend who slobbers all over your cock; who ""paint's the tree;"" who does the _Tootsie-pop_ ™ suck; who does vacuum-powered, golf ball through the garden hose, chrome off a trailer hitch, eyeballs out of your sockets, high powered cock sucking. A girl friend who'll not only go down on you in a theatre, but will stay there for the whole movie. Yeah, you dream of it, but your girlfriend will NEVER do that – no way! +Yes, she will. And you can make it happen just by following these simply guidelines. (Okay, honesty makes me say here that she may not get _that_ enthusiastic, but she will enjoy it a lot more and probably be willing to do it more often.) So try these 7 things and see if her attitude doesn't improve. + **1)** Bathe! – ""I took a bath this morning."" I hear you say. Yeah, but what have you been doing since then? Working? Been to the gym? Are you wearing polyester fabrics? The kind that traps heat and sweat and doesn't let your skin breathe. Chances are it's been hours since you bathed and that area gets filthy fast. So, show some consideration and wash-up before you ask your date to stick her nose down there. + **2)** Shave – Pubic hair tastes nasty and gets stuck in your throat. I'm not saying shave yourself bald; just trim it up a little, make it neat. You know how much a shaved pussy turns you on? Well, the reverse is true. So make that area trim and neat and she'll be more interested in spending time there. + **3)** Watch your diet – I don't mean watch your diet to lose weight. I mean watch it so your cum tastes good. You are what you eat. Your semen more so. Avoid acidy, high alkaline things like coffee, nicotine and junk food. If you live on coffee, cigarettes, and greasy hamburgers your semen probably tastes like battery acid. If you love her (or at least love getting head) add some fruit to your diet. Add some whipped cream to your coffee. I knew a man who put honey in his coffee and instead of sugar and his cum tasted great. The rule of thumb here is the healthier the diet, the better tasting the cum. + **4)** Negotiate - Some women love it when you grab their head and take control. It freaks other women out. Some like to be sitting up with the guy standing. Some like to have the guy lying on his back and they like to crouch over him. Some like to lie on _their_ backs and have the guy straddle their shoulders and feed them his cock. Some like to move around a lot. So, make sure you know what she likes ahead of time. A touch in the wrong pace at the wrong time can totally scare a woman off the process. Also, find out ahead of time if she'll swallow or spit. Have an old towel handy for her to spit into. Yeah, I know, you want her to swallow, but some women won't. So, which do you want – No head at all or head without swallowing? Oh, one more thing, if it takes you a long time to get off, be patient when she has to take a break. Those throat muscles get _tired!_ + **5)** Make noise – which means let her hear how much you like it. She can't look at you at that moment – she's busy. If her eyes are open, she's look at the skin beneath your navel and above your cock. Chances are, though, her eyes are closed since that's really not much to look at. So, let her hear it. Moan, gasp, say something like ""Oh that feels good."" Make more noise when she does something your like a lot. ""I like all of it at lot!"" the horny thirteen-year- old still inside you says. Yeah, but we want to hear it. Come on, guys, make a joyful noise! Let us know you like it. + **6)** Respect the gag reflex – There's this porn my boyfriend loves. It shows a chick on her back with her head hanging off the bed swallowing this guy's cock. It has to be at least ten inches long. She looks like a sword swallower. My boyfriend loves it because you can actually see her throat swell as the cock goes into it. Well, let's hear it for porn queens! The rest of us mortals need air to survive, so respect the gag reflex. Stop trying to shove your cock in deeper when she's trying to come up for air. In time you can over come your gag reflex, but it takes practice. Meanwhile give her a break and stop trying to choke her to death. I've been with my boyfriend eight years and his 8 ½ inches long and incredibly thick. He gets head every day. He only gets deep throated on special occasions. + **7)** Reciprocate – What is sauce for the goose is sauce for you too. Okay maybe not right this second because you probably want to roll over and go to sleep once you get off like all the other guys in the world. But next time, or better yet before you ask her to go down on you, go down on her. Make her cum with your mouth and she'll be happy to do the same for you. +Well, that's seven. Do these things and your girlfriend will be _much_ more interested in going down on you. Now, I'm not promising she'll be perfect at it. At least, not to start. But practice makes perfect so encourage her to keep trying. Be sure to tell her what you like and don't like. Coach her along and soon she'll be giving head like the best porn queen in town." +12,7 Weeks to Quit Smoking,Gregory_Andrews,How To,2018-09-11,2018-09-11,2022-01-04 08:24:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/7-weeks-to-quit-smoking,Mistress wants to help me quit smoking.,"['Blowjob', 'Guide', 'How To']",4.47,"You're going to quit smoking and I'm going to make you... +Mmmmm where to start... +Well, I think we start off the whole agreement with a real good dirty fucking... +Then, they say that it takes 7 weeks to change the habit, so...

Massages will last a minimum of 30 minutes. +At the conclusion of week 3, you will come home to find me wearing a rope bra, and ready to be tied to your bed in a position of your choosing. +Week 4: daily porn. +We will watch together and act out or role play daily... +End of Week: we will film our own porn video; acting out a scenario of your choice from one of your erotica writings. +Week 5: repeat your favorite or choose your own adventure. +End of week: repeat your favorite, or have a sexy adventure with a strap on... +I'm going to fuck the urges out of you honey...you will never want a cigarette again...even an after sex cigarette. +Week 6: daily masturbation +Many variations available here... +You want to watch me masturbate, well baby, you get a whole week to let me know exactly what you want to see.

I have gotten an awful lot of emails from men and women asking me to write a follow up to '7 Tips to GETTING good head."" Even before the emails started coming in, I was thinking about it. But here's the problem. I give head A LOT. My lovers are spoiled rotten. However, I don't eat a lot of pussy. I mean I have, but I don't often. So I don't know what a person who eats pussy looks for in the ideal pussy. So I decided to research the issue. Not personally, but by talking to people who do eat a lot of pussy. +When I asked what they looked for in a pussy, some of them said, ""A wet hole attached to a body with a pulse."" Others said, ""The pulse is optional."" But some of the men I talked to had some helpful advice. I took their thoughts added them to my own impressions from my own limited experience and below you will find the best advice I can think of for GETTING good kitty licking fun. +1) Bathe and Shave - Most women are better about this than men, but it still bears mentioning. Especially the part about shaving. I don't mean shaving it completely (unless that's what you like), but make things a little neater. The woman's sexual organ is MUCH more complex than the man's. It's hard enough for a man to find everything without having foliage in the way. So make things easier - tidy up down there. +2) Masturbation is essential to getting good cunnilingus and better orgasms in general. You need to know what gets you off so you can tell him. Plus, it helps a woman overcome the baggage and hang ups she may still be working through. We are loaded with stigmas about sex, masturbation, self-love and our own sensuality and it's hard to fight them all off. Masturbation, which is a celebration of our own sensuality, helps us jettison all that garbage. +3) Communicate - This has a few parts to it. First, give guidance especially if he is new to the sport. As mentioned earlier, the terrain of a pussy is convoluted and confusing. Tactfully help him find your clit. If you won't show him where it is, you've got no right to be mad at him if he can't find it. Second, once he's found everything, let him know what you want him to do with it. Some women really love having their clit sucked or bitten. This makes some women SCREAM in pain. Some women love to be fingered while being eaten; others - it just annoys them. There are some women who will kick you out of bed if you even TOUCH their anus. For other women, that's what puts them over the top. You never can tell. So don't make him guess - tell him! It will make things a lot better for both of you. Oh, and if you intend to fuck this guy regularly you will see a marked improvement in his technique over time. Third, make noise during it. Let him know that you're enjoying it. Your enjoyment is his main reward so reward him. Moan, gasp, whisper his name (but make sure it's the right name.) If you know another language use it. One of my research subjects said, ""It's all much sexier in language you don't know."" Whatever sounds you feel compelled to make are fine. Just make noise. +4) Touch - Human beings are sensual creatures. We need touch - caring touch, loving touch or sexy touch. Grab his hair and pull him in. Touch his back or ass with your feet. Touch your own breasts or belly. There is nothing your partner will love more than looking up the length of your body seeing your hands caressing and kneading your breasts with your passion filled face above that. You've touched your breasts before and you know it's fun, so fondle your breasts - put on a show! +5) Move - this is closely related touch. It's part of the non-verbal communication that is essential to great oral sex. Tell him that you like it by moving your hips around, writhing on the bed, arching your back or moving your legs. Referring back to #3, this will help teach him. If he does something that feels especially good - make sure you move a LOT then. If he does something really crappy, suddenly stop moving or jerk as if in pain. Believe me he'll figure it out. So make sure you move a lot. +6) Relax – Relax and be in your body. Stop worrying that your belly's too big or your tits are too small. Those are worries for before the date, when you're in your mirror getting ready. They don't belong in your bed. If the guy is naked in your bed, he already thinks you're hot, so stop worrying. Just relax and let your body get into it. Let your mind may wander. If it wanders into a fantasy (For example, if instead of your partner, your mind imagines Ethan Hawke down there) – that's cool. If it wanders to whether you remembered to set your DVR to record ""Desperate Housewives"" or ""Lost"", that's bad. Bring your mind back to the business at hand. Relaxation can make the difference between terrible sex and fucking awesome sex. If you're stressed or tense your body will be and touches that should bring pleasure are just going to hurt. So take some deep breaths and enjoy the ride. It's going to be fun. +7) Fake it – This is controversial. We are all convinced that there's something wrong with faking orgasm since it's pretend. Well, so is your lip color when you put on lipstick. So is your body shape when you wear control top stockings. A well-timed faked orgasm can help your partner relax increasing his enjoyment. Many men are hung up on the woman's orgasm. They get very focused on making sure their partners cums and can get extremely uptight about it. So if you fake one, they can relax and get on with things and so can you. The real thing will probably follow soon after. A fake orgasm can help you relax and will help you get into the experience even more. Don't be surprised at how often a faked orgasm becomes a real one. Now that is a fun experience! Some people believe that faking orgasm damages a relationship. My answer to that is only if they find out. I have faked orgasm with almost all of my partners and they never knew and it ALWAYS helped. (I put in the ""almost"" so all my former partners will wonder if they were the exception.) +8) Provide a goal - most men are goal oriented. So provide some incentive. Promise to reciprocate or to fuck him. And then follow through! You might be able to trick him once or if he's really dumb or desperate twice. After that though he'll never believe you. Besides it's only fair to give back what you've been given." +14,9 Steps to Sexier Stories,electric1,How To,2011-10-19,2011-10-19,2022-01-04 08:24:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/9-steps-to-sexier-stories,A Porn Reader’s Manifesto.,"['Prose', 'Tips', 'Writing']",4.61,"_As a reader, I want better porn. As a writer, I've taken note of the most common weaknesses in stories here, and I offer the following as a reminder to all of us. Porn stories can be made sexier, stronger, and more effective by following the tips below:_ + **1\. Skip Irrelevant Details** +If your story is about Betty Boob seducing pool boy Dick Hung, do not start with 5 paragraphs detailing how Betty divorced her husband and then went back to school and finally landed a job at Doofus Industries and quickly worked her way up to Executive Vice-President of Boring Readers to Death. Get to the sex!! When readers want back-story and human drama, they read Joyce Carol Oates, not LickMyRim69. +Many authors here pride themselves on not writing ""stroke stories,"" filling their work instead with what they feel is literary quality, lots of non-erotic plot and character-development, before throwing in a little sex. But if you're a writer with a burning desire to do that, write novels, not porn stories. +A writer who fills the first Literotica page with non-erotic content is like a stripper who walks out on stage and spends a half-hour reading her own poetry before she takes anything off. Even if that stripper happens to be Emily Dickenson, her poetry won't get a good reception because that's not what the audience came for. And if she can't find a better venue to present her poetry, she probably is no Emily Dickenson. +Every paragraph of a porn story should be rich with sexual tension. That does not mean you start with intercourse. Tease and build to the sex act. Start with Betty Boob checking out the pool boy. Then let every paragraph describe either wrestling with desire, planning the seduction, or doing something that moves the story closer to the sex. This is literary foreplay. +Back-story can be fine, but only if you wed it to the sexual tension. For example: + _""I'm sorry, Ms. Boob, but I can't sleep with a married woman. It's wrong.""_ +""Oh, you silly boy. I divorced that loser years ago. I'm single now, and I need a man like you to satisfy my needs."" +""That's great,"" he told her. And he meant it, judging from the bulge in his jeans. ""But if I don't get the other pools cleaned today, I'll be fired. We can't do it now."" +""How would you like to make more money sitting in an air-conditioned office at Doofus Industries?"" +""Would they hire me?"" +""I'm their Executive Vice-President. But I only hire assistants who know how to lick pussy. Do you qualify?"" + **2\. Skip Irrelevant Sexual Details, Too** +When I said, ""get to the sex,"" I really meant ""get to the plot of your sex story."" Back-story used as a long introduction can be boring even when the details are sexual. In our hypothetical story about Betty and her pool boy, some authors will start by telling us that when Betty was married, she and her husband had lots of sex at first, but then it became sporadic; after her divorce, she had a boyfriend, and they did it in the missionary position on the first date and did only a few variations later; but lately she's been in a dry spell except for blah blah blah. +A summary of the character's sexual history can be as boring as a summary of her career moves. Get to the plot! + **3\. Don't Generalize** +Here's something distracting: + _Like any 18-year-old, Peter had the typical long hair and wore only black._ +Readers are annoyed when you stereotype or make sweeping statements about an entire group. They think about people they know who don't fit your generalization, and then they are annoyed by your falsehood. +Such generalization, in fact, is presumptuous and condescending. Like most right-handed readers over 5'1"", I don't need to be told which elements are ""typical."" Just tell me what is true of your characters, and I can decide for myself whether it's true of others. +Stereotyping on the basis of age, race, gender, etc. is not only condescending but can be offensive, even to elderly Latinas. +The above example reads much better when written as follows: + _Peter, 18, had long hair and wore only black._ +That tells us about the character without distracting us. + **4\. Stop Starting** +Here's an annoyance plaguing many stories at Literotica: + _He started unbuttoning her blouse and then started to smile as her naked tits began falling into his view, her nipples starting to harden. She started unzipping her jeans, beginning to feel eager to start showing him her pussy, which was starting to begin getting moist. No sooner had she finished beginning to unzip her jeans than she immediately began continuing._ +Does anyone in a porn story ever COMPLETE anything?? Enough starting! +Compare how much better the same paragraph reads if we simply remove the starts: + _He unbuttoned her blouse and then smiled as her naked tits fell into his view, her nipples hardening. She unzipped her jeans, eager to show him her moist pussy._ +See? + **5\. Remove Empty Phrases** +The classic writer's rule is ""omit unnecessary words."" Two phrases often used without purpose at Literotica are ""with that"" and ""for his/her part."" As in: + _""You're hot,"" he told her. With that, he unbuttoned her blouse and then smiled as her naked tits fell into his view. She, for her part, unzipped her jeans, eager to show him her moist pussy._ +""With that"" and ""for her part"" are attempts to smooth transitions that, in 99% of cases, are smoother without. +And with that, I, for my part, shall pointlessly transition to the next tip. + **6\. You Must be at Least this Literate to Post Stories** +Writers should check THEIR dictionaries for correct spelling, or else THEY'RE going to look bad when they put THEIR stories out THERE. And not just them. YOU'RE going to need YOUR spelling correct as well. IT'S important that a word have ITS spelling checked. + **7\. Advertise Effectively** +Literotica lets you write the story summary, which tells readers whether this is a story they want to check out. Too many authors will write a summery like this: + _Pat and Chris do more than hold hands!_ +This tells us almost nothing. It suggests only that two people (Two women? Two men? One of each?) do something sexual (In a porn story, I would hope so!). +Tell readers what makes your story interesting. The relationship between the characters. The context of their actions. +At least tell readers the genders of the major players. If your story is a voyeurism story, tell us the genders of the watcher and of the person being watched. A reader who's in the mood for a man peeking at a woman is probably not in the mood for a woman peeking at a man. Likewise, if your story is group sex, is it a man with multiple women, or a woman with multiple men? +Here are examples of specific summaries that let a reader know if these are stories she wants to read: + _A high school jock spies his favorite cheerleader changing._ +Julia says she's straight, but Barbara plans to test that. +Can Betty seduce her pool boy? +It is often tempting for an author to want to surprise his readers and therefore avoid spoilers in the summary. But with thousands of stories to choose from, readers are likely to skip those stories with vague summaries and keep searching for something they know matches their taste. + **8\. Say ""Said""** +In writing dialogue tags, some writers fear the simplicity of ""said,"" and they use in its place fancy words that prove distracting. Ex.: + _""Can I fuck you?"" he queried._ +""You may,"" she preached. +He observed, ""Your pussy is pretty."" +""Thank you,"" she bellowed. +""I hope we don't get caught,"" he iterated. +""We won't,"" she enthused. +He verbalized, ""Are you sure?"" +""I am,"" she whined. +""How sure?"" he harped. +She declared, ""Very."" +""How do you know?"" he tittered. +""Trust me,"" she howled. +Just shoot me, the reader proffers. +Usually, you don't want to use the same word more than once or twice, but ""said"" is an exception. In a dialogue tag, readers skim over the word ""said,"" reducing it to white noise. And that's a good thing, because it's not the important concept in the sentence. When you use other words, you distract the reader's attention from the important elements of who is speaking and what is being said. + **9\. Don't Start with a Curtain Call** +Some writers start by giving each character a paragraph describing the character's face, body, and personality. This is boring. Why use paragraphs to describe characters we do not yet have reason to care about? +Personality should be revealed through action. +Bad: + _Monica was shy._ +Better: + _Monica's face turned pink as Jim unbuttoned her jeans. ""I can't believe we're doing this,"" she giggled._ +Physical description can spice up a scene, but don't give it to us in one block. Ladle out the details as they become relevant. +Bad: + _Monica had shoulder-length brown hair and blue eyes. She had long, curvy legs._ +Better: + _Monica dipped her face down as she giggled, letting her brown hair veil her face for the moment. When her face resurfaced, Jim loved the spark in her blue eyes. He loved even more what he saw when he pulled off her jeans and drank in the sight of her long, curvy legs._ +Better yet, perhaps, leave out physical details altogether. Let the reader imagine the characters as she pleases." +15,Abusive Friendships,Goldeniangel,How To,2006-01-23,2006-01-23,2022-01-04 08:25:31,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/abusive-friendships,Recognizing abuse outside of a romantic relationship.,[''],4.57,"I don't want to talk about the kind of abusive relationship that we all immediately think of - that being of an abusive man who hits a woman or girl that he has some kind of relationship with, whether it be romantic or familial. We all know and can recognize that kind of abuse, and get out of it quickly. +But there are other kinds of abusive relationships which can be just as detrimental and are harder to recognize. They're also often harder to get out of, because you aren't sure if you really have a reason or not... Emotional and verbal abuse are harder to recognize than physical. People can be verbally abusive without even meaning to, or emotionally abusive without really knowing what they're doing. And it's something any of us are capable of. +Some verbal abuse can be considered teasing, my friends and i constantly say that we have a mutually abusive relationship and it's only because we love each other. In fact, you can tell if we don't like you very much because we will never make fun of you. Those whom we love, we tease... but NEVER about something that would hurt the other person. +Teasing is such an acceptable form of caring that it can very easily get out of control. Teasing between friends or partners means that neither party has hurt feelings about it, the topics are clear-cut and defined as things that are ok to tease each other about. As soon as you cross into territory where the other person is getting upset, it can become verbally abusive. The reason this is hard to recognize is that the perpetrator does not always realize what they are doing. However, if someone says to you, ""Hey, that's not funny, that actually really hurt my feelings"" the acceptable response should NOT be ""Oh come on, I was just teasing, get over it."". What should happen is a response of ""Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, I won't do it again."" and go back to teasing on acceptable topics. +Too often people brush off verbally abusing someone as just teasing, they don't even realize what an effect their words can have. This happens most often between friends, someone you trust, and it's hard to stand up to them because they ARE your friend and you want to trust them. But it does not make it ok. If someone makes you feel bad about yourself, with things that they are saying, and they do not acknowledge your feelings about it or ignore you when you ask them to stop, they have become verbally abusive. And it doesn't not necessarily mean that they are an abusive person, but if they don't stop then it is still a relationship that you need to get out of. +Emotional abuse is even harder to recognize. It's a kind of twisting and manipulation to make you doubt yourself, doubt your down decisions. It's a way for someone else to gain control of your life, usually by making you feel bad about yourself. Emotional abuse is more than that, it's hard to define though and it's slippery. But if you are around someone and you notice that you are constantly feeling bad about yourself, less confident or insecure around them then it's a good chance something is going on that is not right. Friends and people that we care about are not supposed to make us feel that way, we're supposed to feel good around them, good about ourselves and about our lives. +Sadly, our friends know us best and it's often very easy for friends to become emotionally or verbally abusive, often without even meaning to. But that doesn't mean that you should put up with it, because - as with any abusive relationship - it will not get better if you don't take steps to make it better. And, sadly, one of those steps may ending the friendship if they do not respond to anything else. +You can always try to tell your friend how they're making you feel, if they are a true friend then they won't want to be like that. But if they ignore you, mock you for it, or quickly return to their old ways, then you might not have a choice but to leave the friendship, no matter how close you once were with them. These ""friends"" are toxic, to our lives, to our other friendships and to ourselves. +For an example, I found myself in a relationship with a friend of many years - almost 6 - who I felt stopped being a good friend. She never seemed to have anything nice to say about me, EVERYTHING she said was an insult. No matter how nice or complimentary I was to her, she never returned it. Every decision I made about my life she questioned and tried to get me to do what she wanted to. It was hard, because my friends and I DO tease each other, but when I told her that something was hurtful she just laughed at me and said I was being too sensitive. When I wanted to make my own decisions and told her I thought she was being too nosy she just said that she was worried about me and wanted to help me make the right decisions for my life. It was all to my benefit. +But I was becoming more unsure of myself, less confident, I was unhappy with my life, my personality and even my looks. +I am a size 8. I have an athlete's body. I would probably be a smaller size if it weren't for my shoulders, which are very wide because I swam competitively for 16 years. I have the little stomach roll like most people, and a very defined hourglass figure. When I was out shopping with her we went to Frederick's of Hollywood and I found a beautiful woven shawl which I held up for her to see. +She said, ""Oh honey, No. I've seen your body and No."" +I think that was when I realized that there was a serious problem with our friendship. I was depressed for the rest of the day because of what she had said to me; assuming that I would be wearing nothing underneath it for one, and for another making me feel like I was fat and unattractive. Before that I didn't think of myself as fat. I hadn't thought of 99% of the world as fat, I rarely think about size at all... but when her little size 2 said THAT... It shot my confidence straight to hell. Me, who was very proud of my curves and my hourglass. +It finally came to a head when she basically came out and said that she wanted to make my decisions for me. She was just a very controlling person, controlling, cold, judgmental, and getting worse throughout the years. For me, it became an emotionally and sometimes verbally abusive friendship that I stayed in because on occasion she would be a very good friend. And because no one ever tells you that good friendships can go the same way as romantic relationships. +So I'm telling you now. It is just as important that you stand up for yourself with your friends as with a partner. It's important that you not allow them to get away with behavior that hurts you. It's important that they recognize you as your own person and as their friend. And it's important that you not take abuse from ANYONE. Friend, partner, family member... because abuse is not just delegated to certain kinds of relationships. It happens anywhere and everywhere." +16,Action and Adventure Writing Guide,Sage_of_the_Forlorn_Path,How To,2019-04-24,2019-04-24,2022-01-04 08:25:32,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/action-and-adventure-writing-guide,"Not a story, just a guide I hope proves useful.","['Fantasy', 'Guide', 'How To', 'Instructional']",4.75,"Not an actual story, just a guide I hope someone finds useful. +Character: +Important characters require backstory, beliefs, and personality. The quantity of detail depends on the level of importance. Not all characters require back story, there is nothing wrong with ""throw away"" characters. The most important thing needed for writing characters is empathy. The writer needs to know how to walk a mile in someone's shoes, how it feels to experience pain that they themselves have never experienced before, to desire things they already take for granted, and to think in ideas they normally wouldn't. Each character should offer a new perspective to the writer, let the writer travel on a different life path. +• Main Character: +o Normal +The normal MC is a symbol of the everyday person, in terms of both morals and abilities, and the easiest for the reader to identify with. They usually act to fulfill a personal goal, rather than for the greater good. At the beginning, they lack a situation, training, or ability, and are otherwise helpless. They experience the most personal growth, deciding their own definitions for good and evil, with their journey revolving around which path they will take. +o Hero +The hero is meant to be a symbol of good, both the good in humanity, or the good in an idea. Their presence in the story is supposed to enforce the undeniability of a concept, like they themselves are that concept itself, such as the right of freedom, the value of life, or the obligations of the capable. They should inspire other characters or the reader to believe in the idea, but they require strong believability so that their actual personality isn't forgotten and they're reduced to a talking point. They have to be realistic, yet exemplary. They persevere without giving up principles but can break rules only at great personal anguish. If they act according to their beliefs, they have to be ready to face the consequences. If they suffer a crisis of conscious or have to go against what is right, they have to suffer and learn from it. While not without flaws, they must be reliable. +o Antihero +Often mistaken for the villain, the antihero pursues own goals that he deems to be good, even when it means acting badly. He makes sacrifices that the reader might not agree with but exists in a moral gray area that allows for more choices. The antihero represents the flaws in people, and while not often revered as much as the hero, is more believable and easier to identify with. Similar to the hero, the antihero represents an aspect of life, but theirs is a dark truth about the world, revealing what it costs for good to take place. ""If you want peace, prepare for war."" ""Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom."" They show that the world isn't fair and that good intentions can lead to bad actions. +o Villain +The villain pursues his own interest, despite those interests being evil. As the main character, he offers a change of pace from regular stories by bringing a completely different set of goals, options, and actions from the hero. They must offer results to keep the reader's attention, like conquests and heists, or entice them with their immoral lifestyles. To gain satisfaction through breaking the rules, to be free of conscious and simply take what is desired, it is a craving everyone feels. The villain should speak to that craving, let the reader get a taste of what it's like to unstoppable, not answering to anyone or anything. While the main aspect of his character or his goal may be evil, the rest of his character might not be. The difference between the villain and the antihero is that the antihero has a belief, while the villain has a desire. +• Support: +º Friends +Friends are a means of revealing your main character's personality through dialogue, even if the dialogue has nothing to do with the plot. What makes your character laugh? What annoys them? How do they spend their free time when they aren't in story mode? What kind of people do they attract or are attracted to? During the story, they offer segues for explanations and solutions to problems that the MC alone can't solve. Their abilities or ideas act as limiters for the main character, so that the main character doesn't conveniently become able to do anything and possess all opinions. +º Family +The family shows the upbringing of the main character, giving hints as to how they came to be who they are, and how they truly act. They can be a way to show that the main character is just like anyone else, facing the same problems and living the same life. They can serve as both an obstacle and a motivation. If the main character is young, then the presence of parents hampers the adventure (it's hard to save the world when you have a curfew), or their absence explains certain actions of beliefs (like Batman). +º Backup characters +Backup characters are rarely seen, but help expand the universe of the story and can even come to save the day. If there is action involving some variable force (magic or fictional technology), they can be used to give a wider view and provide examples of that force without having to delve very deeply into backstory. They show that there is a world outside the main character's drama and that the choices of the main character affect other people. +º Love Interest +The love interest is one of the main goals of the story. They alter the MC's personality and act as motivators, as well as symbolizing life after the story. Most importantly, they reveal the deep psychological issues in the MC. Do they have trust issues? Self-esteem issues? Does the MC feel that they are worthy of love, or feel that they deserve or are better off alone? The love interest takes the MC off the pedestal that the plot sets them on, humanizing them through the desire for romance. +• Antagonist: Enemy of the protagonist +o Predator: Evil from the start. They serve as a challenge for the MC to prove how good they are in comparison, and in some cases, the entire human race. Their goal is to establish the normalcy of evil, that evil is the natural state of the world. The hero has to prove them wrong. +o Antihero: Believes what they are doing is right. The antihero's strongest trait is how agreeable they are to the reader. Rather than good vs evil, it becomes a contest of who has the stronger beliefs, and which belief deserves to stand at the top, even if both are right in one way or another. +o Avenger: Has been wronged by the protagonist. This can be either a way of showing an MC's mistake or character flaw, or getting the reader to feel sympathy for someone other than the MC. Even if the MC is a hero, those opposing him might not necessarily be evil, like the antihero. If the antagonist believes they have been wronged, then it shows that they experience the same feelings and pain as everyone else. +o A neutral or good character simply in conflict with MC. Not all stories need good vs evil or a contest of beliefs. Sometimes two normal people can each want the same thing and be in conflict to get it. +• Fatality: Faceless casualties or characters who die for the plot. +o They can be used to reinforce severity and danger, such as the red shirts in Star Trek or civilians caught up in the crossfire. When tragedy strikes a public place or there is a scene of battle in a war, the details of death have to be made known. If the writer can't acknowledge or imagine the unavoidable deaths in such scenarios, then they shouldn't be writing them. A story's realism depends on how much plot armor is used to protect people. Preventing casualties with convenient death cheats like a Deus Ex Machina or resurrection infantilizes the story and insults the reader. However, too much death, such as killing characters for shock value or to manufacture drama can be just as detrimental. It is hard for a plot to remain steady if characters are constantly being introduced only to die. +o They can be used to alter the storyline. The death of a character both removes possibilities (how is a heist supposed to happen if one of the key members dies halfway through?) and demands the making of decisions. When someone dies, some action has to be made by the other characters. +o They can invoke emotion in the reader or characters, but this should be only a side-effect, rather than a goal. Simply killing a character to try and make the reader cry is cheap and exploitive. Rather, the goal should be to refine one's writing that they can actually instill those feelings. The writer must be able to fully-articulate the feelings of the characters, to describe the effect the deceased had on their lives. Even if the deceased never actually had any dialogue of action, if they were introduced into the story as already being dead, you must make the writer feel what the other characters feel and understand the worth of the deceased. +o They can show how characters deal with loss. If a friend or family member dies, how does the MC handle it? Do they bottle it up and try to push on through? Do they wallow in despair and try to drown their sorrows in some vice? Are they perfectly zen and accept death peacefully? Do they go on a violent rampage? Characters develop when exposed to choices, hardship, and unexpected occurrences. How they deal with loss is a great way to show what kind of person they are, and what kind of person they shall become. +Plot/Storyline: +• Collision: MC meets a character that starts the story (enemy or ally/love interest) by forcing their own circumstances onto the MC or revealing a life- changing fact, such as if there are secret details about the MC's life or origins that they aren't aware of (bloodline, prophecies, etc) or the unexpected truth of the world (Neo learning about the Matrix). Normal life takes a hard turn onto a new, exciting story. The MC is most often normal and powerless and develops their true character. +• Linear: A continuous story with one main goal. The MC is introduced as already on this path and is familiar with elements of the story. The Lord of the Rings fits this design with the Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas, who are already familiar with orcs and combat before they even join the Fellowship. +• Segmented: Story broken up into pieces either through time (Harry Potter) or goal (collection stories and video game plot). +• Problem-solving: The villain is introduced before the main character, often in the form of an oppressive government or other evil force, and the MC, growing up in a world shaped by said evil force, challenges the system. +• Rags to riches/happily ever after: MC starts out poor but ends up with wealth and prestige, either showing the benefits of hard work and determination or offering an easy shortcut that the reader will envy. (Rocky, Aladdin, Cinderella, etc) +• Tragedy: MC (often bad) falls from grace and story ends with their death, or make a choice that deviates from their normal life and causes their death. This is the most realistic storyline, showing the unfairness and brutality of life. (Achilles, Breaking Bad, etc) +• Slice of life: Light drama focusing on social interactions and lifestyle of character. +Main themes: +• Human vs. human +Basic conflict and antagonism, good guy vs bad guy. +• Human vs. society +MC wants to change the world, fighting institutionalized corruption and inequality. Basically the plot of every dystopian YA novel. +• Human vs. mother nature +Shows both the resilience of the human spirit and the utter helplessness of humanity in the face of nature. +• Human vs. God/fate +The MC, symbolizing freedom and choice, is fighting against a predetermined fate or system. +• Human vs. supernatural +The MC faces entities that aren't human, pitting the human race against something that is either its total opposite or too similar for cohabitation. Ghosts and demons as enemies turn the MC into a representation of light and life, showing the strength of the living. Intelligent monsters and aliens can be a way to reflect humanity's flaws and history, through means such as interplanetary colonialism, like in Independence Day. They highlight the strengths and weaknesses of humans, as well as evils in comparison. +• Human vs. self +The MC faces inner demons, such as mental illness, addiction, or past trauma, or doesn't want to be pulled into the story due to such faults. +Background +Story backgrounds require extensive detail, either through ingenuity or research. If the story is set in a fantasy world with its own history, culture, or natural laws, then the story must be an accurate representation as to how those variables shaped life for the MC. Differences between the story world and the real world must be fully elaborated and acknowledged. Anything out of the ordinary for the real world must be explained so that the reader can understand how it fits together into the story world. +If the story takes place in the real world, then it requires research. Scenes or storylines taking place in actual areas require an understanding of culture, appearances, and even history. For example, if a country in that story uses nuclear weapons, then either it actually possesses nukes in the real world, or the story elaborates on how they got nukes in the first place. Stories in the real world require realism. +• Time: Historical fiction/modern fiction. +What historical events are happening in the story? What is the quality of life for the people? +• Location: Country, planet, etc +What does the country look like? What is its climate and language? +• Culture: Societal and character links to the landscape. +What religion do people follow? What are the local customs and beliefs? +• Level of fantasy: Level of technology, presence of magic, real-world elements +If magic or a currently-nonexistent technology is present in the story, then how have they shaped the world since their introduction? How might the daily life of a character be different compared to the reader's because of their presence? Imagine traveling through time and giving a modern computer or cell phone to people of some random time era, and consider how that would change history. Now replace the computer or cell phone with magic or some currently fictional technology. +Convenience is the enemy of stories. The MC must solve problems through effort and sacrifice, with the situation or enemy having a fair chance of defeating them. For instance, unless your story focuses on time travel, NEVER solve problems through time travel. Unless your story is about exorcisms, NEVER solve problems through prayers being answered and divine intervention. +Solving a situation through an unbeatable force makes problems irrelevant and nothing short of cheating. Luck should manifest in the MC catching a foul ball or managing a lucky shot at a target, not coming across an unusual amount of money exactly when needed or breaking the laws of probability. Any asset introduced must have its implications fully investigated and acknowledged to avoid plot holes. +Resolution: +• How plot ties together, connecting the storylines and giving them all either a proper ending or acknowledgment as to the absence of a proper end. +• The MC shows their true character, becoming a different person from when the story first began. Either their beliefs have changed, their personality has changed, or their abilities have changed. +• All questions have to be answered, eliminating plot holes. +• Is the story finished or is there room for a sequel? +• What is the aftermath? How are the characters' lives changed now that the goal has been fulfilled or the enemy defeated? +*****" +17,Activities for Your Submissive Male,Whispor,How To,2019-08-22,2019-08-22,2022-01-04 08:25:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/activities-for-your-submissive-male,A list of sex acts to perform on a submissive man.,"['D/S', 'Dom/Sub', 'How To', 'Submissive Male']",4.4,"My assumption of you, the reader, is that you are a woman whose husband or boyfriend is sexually submissive. He may have expressed an interest in exploring this with you. Perhaps you are already exploring this dynamic but are looking for additional suggestions to try with him. You may also be a man who hungers to submit to a woman but need something to show her to give her a better idea of what being submissive actually means. +I'm also assuming that both you and your partner are heterosexual. Some of you may be bisexual or bicurious, but I am focusing this article on purely monogamous activities. Sexual activities with others outside the relationship are beyond the scope of this article, but they can be a delicious addition if the relationship is secure and both partners are willing! +There are strong themes of BDSM and sexual domination in this article. It's somewhat the nature of the kink. If those don't interest you then this is probably not the article for you. This is not an exhaustive list. It is also very likely that every single suggestion in this article will not apply to your man. It's up to you to pick and choose the appropriate ones that will arouse both of you, while avoiding the ones that will deter his submissive nature. Don't be surprised if you find some suggestions in here that are totally disinteresting while reading others that apply perfectly! + **Preface.** Sexually submissive men hunger to be controlled and directed. We desire to be in sexual servitude to our woman, and for her to take the lead in directing sexual activities. We also often have a strong affinity for humiliation to some extent. I will describe several activities and scenarios below, but there are two primary topics that are staples - dare I say _requirement_ \- when exploring with your sexually submissive man: +1\. _Anal Penetration._ Honestly, allowing someone to penetrate us anally is one of the most submissive acts that we submissive men can perform. It's a combination of both pleasure and vulnerability. It's something we crave, it fulfills a very basic need, and should be used by the female in the relationship. I'll describe various methods and related activities below. +2\. _Cum Eating._ It's not typically normal for a man to consume his own seed, yet we often do it anyway. Nature's intention is for us to inseminate a woman in order to propagate our DNA. The fact that sex is pleasurable for both of us ensures survival of the species. Being forced to consume one's own ejaculate is preventing that. It registers at a very strong level in our brains. I'm not saying that a woman should never receive her submissive man's semen during sex. Many women enjoy the taste of cum, and are turned on by feeling their lovers ejaculate inside their mouths. Having a man cum inside you is a very intimate part of lovemaking. What I'm saying is that outside those activities, while exploring your man's submissiveness, he should always be made to consume his own cum. + **Orgasm Ownership/Denial.** You own his cock. The semen he produces is yours and yours alone. You will make it absolutely clear that he is never to self- pleasure without permission. He is never to waste his semen, that you decide its final use and destination, and that you dictate when and if he experiences an orgasm. Just temper this with a merciful attitude. It's OK to deny him release, but be sure to reward him occasionally when he has excelled in his devotion and servitude to you. + **Body Hair.** Removal of body hair, specifically pubic, rectal, and underarm hair, adds an interesting dynamic to the situation. The submissive male should be instructed that he is to remain hairless in these areas at all times. This hair is a very important secondary sexual characteristic for a man when he enters puberty. It is an outward sign of his male sexuality, and you are removing it from him. It's also inconspicuous in case the male wishes to hide his submissiveness from the rest of the world, which is usually the case. Periodic inspections by you, the dominant female, add to the erotic value of this. + **Analingus.** This is the first of the oral servitude activities I will mention. The submissive male is eager to please and pleasure you while being denied his own sexual gratification. Long sessions of licking and rimming your (clean) asshole is a worthwhile activity to add to your sessions. Perhaps you shower and apply your make-up every morning. One possible suggestion is to require that he kneel behind you, spread your buttocks with his hands, and worship your anus with his tongue while you apply your make-up in the nude, dry your hair, etc. It's a short window but powerfully reinforces his place as the submissive. + **Cunnilingus.** This, of course, is his worship and devotion to your ""holy of holies."" (No pun intended.) He loves the taste of you, your feminity, and your feminine nectar. You come home from work after a long day, he's on his back either on the floor or bed, you remove your panties and squat over his face. His senses will be overwhelmed by the strong musk of your pussy and saltiness of sweat. Make him worship it. Or even deny him the pleasure. + **Cream Pie Eating.** Of course you're going to allow your submissive male to climax inside you. Because your pussy is worthy of his oral worship and attention, he should never leave his seed inside it as he might actually fertilize you. It should be very clear that if you intend to enforce his submissiveness that he thoroughly lick you clean and swallow what he ejaculated inside you. You can also squat over his face and allow his semen to leak from you as he licks and consumes it. + **Lingerie.** Make him buy it for you. Make him pick it out in the morning. Tell him that you will feel so sexy while you're out around other men because of what he selected to dress you in. This doesn't imply that you will cheat on him, but he's making you look sexy to him without obtaining the sexual release he desires. A woman could decide to make him wear her panties, but that is more _feminization_ and might not appeal to him. Discuss it with him beforehand. + **Cages.** Allowing his woman to enclose his penis with a cage under lock and key is very submissive. It reaffirms you own it, and denies him the ability to self-pleasure. He only receives sexual pleasure when you release him. + **Butt Plugs.** His asshole is yours. As I mentioned previously, anal penetration is a very powerful act of submission. Have your submissive male wear a plug, especially in public, and frequently inquire if he still has it in. Lewdly suggest that if he feels uncomfortable with it, that he will be even more uncomfortable later when you stretch his anus even more. + **Strap-Ons.** Hands down, this is one of the most effective tools to use when you want your man to feel submissive and/or to nurture his submissive nature. Don't get one that's _too_ large - you don't want to injure him or cause an aversion to having it used on him. Typically you will be dressed in very sexy lingerie while sporting your strap-on. The male should regularly kneel in front of you and fellate it as if he were fellating an actual cock. Tell him how sexy he looks by sucking _your_ cock. Make him tell you verbally that your cock is beautiful, to thank you for allowing you to suck it, and to beg you to fuck him with it. +...and _fuck_ him with it! He should be face down, ass up high in the air, and presenting his anus for you to penetrate. Grab his hips, fuck him like you want a man to fuck you, and tell him he's a slut - _your_ slut. Don't be surprised if he ejaculates from the prostate stimulation he receives from your artificial cock. At the very least, he'll be leaking prostatic fluid from his penis. + **Prostate Massage.** Allowing a woman to penetrate him anally is a very submissive act for the male. Massaging a man's prostate and expressing his prostatic fluid is a form of orgasm denial. Using your fingers with a gloved hand is especially arousing for us. If his ass is up in the air and you are behind him while you do this, his penis will ""ooze"" thick, prostatic fluid. It will usually drip and pool on the floor beneath him. Make sure you have something to collect it in or something it can puddle on so that he can be easily made to lick it up and consume it afterward. + **Enemas.** This definitely won't be everyone's choice, but receiving an enema from a woman is a very humiliating act and heightens the man's sense of submission. The woman controls the release of warm, soapy water into the man. It floods his bowels and causes uncomfortable cramping. One of the last things a man wants to do is to move his bowels in front of a woman. In this scenario, he can't until you give him permission. When he does, you'll be sitting across from him, looking him in the eyes, as he reluctantly releases. It's humiliating, but doing it in front of a woman is a very submissive act. + **Forced Orgasms.** These can be from handjobs, blowjobs, etc. Many times the orgasm is called a _ruined_ orgasm, where physical stimulation of the penis is stopped once ejaculation starts. This is maddening - his hips will thrust in an attempt to continue stimulation and the emission of semen will stall. It's a strong reinforcement that you are in control and determine his level of sexual pleasure. + ***** An alternative scenario to the forced orgasm aspect is to combine the clothed female / nude male (CFNM) dynamic to the activity. He is nude, you are fully clothed, and in turn he senses your authority. You can also have him masturbate for you while you watch, in a CFNM setting, and instruct him to ejaculate into a shot glass, on a plate, etc. Force him to consume it afterward, or use a spoon or your finger to feed it to him. + **Your Hot Past.** This can be a dicey subject to broach, but often a submissive man enjoys hearing about the previous sexual exploits of the woman he loves and worships. Knowing that you've sucked a big cock and/or swallowed its ejaculate can be arousing, as well as finding out your pussy has been stretched by a cock larger than his makes you even more of a sexual goddess to him, and worthy of being worshiped. You can choose to emphasize how much smaller he is than your previous lover if he's into that. Even if you've never had a bigger cock, you can fib. Be sure and embellish how good it felt. + **Summary.** This is not an exhaustive list of activities and suggestions to apply to your submissive male, but it should be a good starting place. Just remember that communication is the most important ""activity"" and that he must convey his needs and desires to you. Revealing those most intimate details to you is also a form of submission." +18,Add Some Real Power to Your Jacking,Decayed Angel,How To,2006-05-10,2006-05-10,2022-01-04 08:25:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/add-some-real-power-to-your-jacking,Make the most of porn with repeated orgasms.,[''],3.74,"Now guys, how often has this happened to you? You have some free time on hand, you're wife, girlfriend, friend with benefits, significant or insignificant other is out of town, out shopping or just out of the picture for the next few hours (at least) and you decide to take in a good porn flick. Yeah, it happens sometimes, you have an afternoon of some pure, lowbrow, raw visual entertainment with absolutely no redeeming value except for popping off. +Well, you find the perfect flick, get it home without drawing too much attention to yourself, get yourself set up with a beverage, some clean up rags and the remote control and you're ready for an experience. You fire up the DVD player and fast forward though the warnings and notices, endure a bit of useless plot and then suddenly, the clothes are removed and you are watching some of hard-core's finest breasts, cocks, pussies and asses in all their enormous, gleaming and thrusting beauty. +Yeah, you know those flicks and three minutes into the feature you are wanking away and try as you might, with all that hot action on the screen you are coming right along with the actor onscreen. And there you are, not even five minutes into your ninety minute porn film and you've shot your wad. What do you do? What do you do? +Well sure, for you younger guys you just carry on, but then again, after you've popped your load for a second time and you're only ten minutes into the film, you're still stuck. You could go on watching hoping to work up another hard-on, but damn, unless you've got an ample supply of some good lube your gonna rub that sucker raw, trying to coax one last cum shot out of it. And damn, even if you've got calluses on your cock your arm's got to be aching after that extended jerking, and we haven't even mentioned carpal tunnel syndrome. +Now, you could try rummaging through some of the toys hidden deep in underwear drawers, but after coming once (or twice) those vibrations begin to feel a bit like ""...the distant humming of some far-away bees,"" if you let me (mis)quote Laurie Anderson. Mind you, your head is in the right place, as long as you have batteries or electricity, these devices won't get tired and if you use some common sense, you'll not blister your twister reaching for that cum shot. The problem you face with these toys is simply, as Tim Taylor would say, ""You need more power!"" +More power: that is the answer. Don't go digging through your draws looking for those mild mannered girlie toys, step boldly into the garage, saunter up to the workbench and inject some real power into your sex life. That said gentlemen, let's use a bit of discretion here. Stay far away from any blades, hammers, drills, planes, scrapers, rippers, crow bars and screwdrivers. The secret here is to remember the concept of many of the toys we talked about earlier... think vibration. That's it, your good old vibratory sander. +Much like the toys described above, these vibratory sanders come in different shapes and sizes. Ryobi and several other manufacturers will make some fine specialty sanders and these may work for some kinky activity, but for just flat out, double, triple or even quadruple cum shots I recommend an old faithful. The Craftsman standard vibratory sander brings an earth shattering ¼ horsepower of jittering joy to even the deadest dick. +When using any of these sanders, it is important to remember to remove any sandpaper from the tool or you'll be raw for a month. Once you get rid of the sandpaper you are ready to experience power sex. Now, the Craftsman sander features a soft rubber padding with a smooth surface that, with a bit of courage can be applied directly against your skin, even the most sensitive areas around the glans and balls. If you are extra sensitive or are a bit nervous with the tool, you could use it through your clothing or use a towel to give you some extra padding. The towel is good to have on hand anyway, because using this tool, you'll have a lot of cleanup. +If you are having trouble picturing a scenario, I'll outline a possible agenda that takes full advantage the new features of your tool. Feel free to explore variations on this scenario that will satisfy your specific kinks or needs. +I choose a movie from my small collection of DVDs, not a compilation one that tosses the cum shots at you at fifty shots and hour, but one where I can experience at least a bit of build-up. I start up the DVD, move over to a comfortable chair, carefully placing the towel on one arm and leaning the vibratory sander on the other, making sure it is plugged in. I pull off my tee shirt, shorts and jockey shorts and, completely naked now, I settle back into the chair. +Fast forwarding through the start up screen and a bit of the superfluous dialogue, I kick back to normal speed as the clothes begin to come off onscreen. As the actor and actress undress each other and the woman's enormous breasts are sucked, licked, squeezed and tossed about, I slowly draw my palms up my chest, lightly circling over my stomach and then up onto my chest. By now my cock is hard, but I avoid any contact with it. +Finding my nipples, I gently circle them with my fingertips, feeling the tiny nubs harden to my touch. The tingling shoots though me so I can even feel some sensation in my balls, and I continue toying with my nipples as onscreen I watch the actor's tongue now slide up the actresses open pussy lips. He diddles her clit with his tongue as I start to reach for my cock. +At this point, I have a decision to make. I can go with the old fashion jack- off for my first orgasm, which will go pretty quickly considering the inspiration I receive from the onscreen images, or I can go with the sander and take advantage of a full load of cum when I come. Consider this, with your first orgasm, the intensity will be increased using the tool and often your come shot will be reminiscent of Ron Jeremy in his prime, before he gained all that weight and joined the cast of Real Life. Just be prepared for the cleanup because you'll be wiping cum from walls and ceilings. +Before I touch my cock, I pull my fingers along my thighs and gently brush over my balls, just to tease myself a bit more. On-screen the man and woman are now going doggie style, with an excellent camera angle showing the glistening cock slipping in and out of her pussy, her lips expanding and contracting around his cock. I reach for the sander and gently ease the soft rubber padding to just above my balls so that it gets just the base of my cock along with my balls. Leaning back in my chair I stare at the screen, where the actress has rolled onto her back and is playing with her nipples as the actor plunges his cock into her pussy. +Convincing myself her orgasm is real and not just acting, I turn on the sander and let the vibration ripple over my entire crotch. The onscreen intensity is building and I know the cum shot is not far away, so I press the sander harder against me, letting the massive vibration electrify my cock and balls. The noise from the sander grounds out the sound on the TV, and I know my neighbors are experiencing interference on their afternoon baseball game. +Varying the intensity of sensation riddling my balls and shaft by increasing or decreasing how hard I push the sander against me, I time my cum shot with the action on TV. Just as the actor pulls his cock out of the actress' pussy I let myself go, shooting my cum up on my chest, all the way up to my chin. On screen, white, glistening liquid arches over the woman, splashing on her breasts and running down the large curves. +The vibrations continue as my cock pulses again and again, shooting my come in descending rainbows onto my stomach and into my pubic hair. I finally shut down the sander and relax, savoring the faint sound of dialogue on TV as the lead up to another sex scene drags on. I grab the towel, wipe off my chin, chest and stomach and begin honing in on the action onscreen as the clothes are once again torn off. +I'll coast through the next scene, perhaps toying with my nipples and generally recovering from my orgasm. After a scene or two of teasing, I'll be ready for another power shot. Given the length of this movie, I figure I'll be good for two, perhaps three more shots. I feel my cock begin to harden some from the teasing on my nipples... +Depending upon your general health and the quality of porn you are watching, you could carry on for a number of cum shots. You might also consider having a piece of wood near your chair in case your significant other walks in on you, you can explain you were sanding the wood and well, just got carried away. Hey, she might believe it. +For the Ladies +Keep in mind fellows, the thought of more power can also be applied to the ladies in your life. I do urge you to introduce her to the idea slowly and don't come barging in from the garage, covered in sawdust, still wearing your safety goggles, with your sander screaming and shooting out sparks. You might want to get her a little drunk... well, get her hammered and then give it a shot. Be sure to have plenty of extra soft padding to reassure her. Of course you face the possibility that she'll really like the sander and then you'll never be able to find it when you have some sanding to do." +19,Adult Video Arcades and Gloryholes,PolySwingerWife,How To,2021-05-25,2021-05-25,2022-01-04 08:25:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/adult-video-arcades-and-gloryholes,"Some Women Love Them, Too.","['Adult Arcades', 'Adult Theaters', 'Gloryholes', 'Sex With Strangers', 'Sucking']",4.39,"A lot of guys might say, ""A woman can get sex from anyone anywhere, why would she go to an adult bookstore for sex?"" If you are new to the lifestyle or you are shy or not sure about having sex in your car or going to a man's house, adult book store video booths are a good alternative. +If you go to the book store alone, you can wait for men to go in or see them outside and approach them and ask them to accompany you into the book store. You can even ask them to share a booth with you. The chances that they will say no are very slim. +The great thing about glory hole sex is that it is anonymous. The men don't see or know you, and you don't see or know them. This gives both you and the men you suck, or let fuck you, the opportunity to have sex without being judgmental. Your looks and age and their looks and age don't matter. It is all about sex and having fun. +So what if the man you just sucked and let fuck and cum in you was 80 years old? He was still a man and he had a cock. +A good number of adult book stores and adult theaters get pretty busy on Friday nights and weekends. We have an adult theater on the Southside of our state that has three full-size couches in the back of each theater. This makes it much more comfortable when you are getting fucked. You undress, lie down, and the men line up. This is best done when your husband is with you. The booths in the book store are good if you are there alone. +If you do go to an adult book store, you'll want to wear something very revealing and easily pulled up, pulled down, or taken off. Make sure the man (men) who show up in the booth next to you know you are a woman. Motion for them to put their cocks through the hole. Once they do, you can suck them until they are rock hard. Once they are rock hard, you can position yourself so that they can enter you either vaginally or anally. +Many women, such as myself, have enjoyed getting it vaginally, as well as anally, from strangers we never see. The reason why doing it anally through a glory hole works as well as it does is because you have complete control of how fast the man's cock enters you and how deep it goes. +The doors on the video booths lock. So, you can get naked and the men can see what you have to offer. I have gone to adult book stores and walked around and let men know I was there, then I bought tokens and went to the booths. The booths usually are out of sight of the book store itself. Once you are back where the booths are, you can either lock your door and undress, or you can undress and leave the door slightly open. I prefer to have men join me in the booth. +Although I wear a blindfold when my husband and I go to the adult theater together, when I go alone, I want to see the guys I suck and fuck in the booths. Since we can lock the door, the men can drop their pants and I can get naked. I normally have the men stand with their backs against the door. That way, when they pull out their cocks, I am in kind of a position where I can't leave until they have had their fill of me. I like giving men that kind of control on occasion. +When men see me go to the booths, they follow me. I go into the booth, take off my dress and leave the door slightly open. The men usually walk by a few times before one of them joins me. When they do, they close and lock the booth door behind them. I am naked, that way the men know what I want and they know they can have what they want. +If you find an adult book store you like, it is not a bad idea to get to know the clerk. Let him know why you are there and that you are not a prostitute. Let him know you are married and are just wanting to play. Often the book stores have cameras outside. So, if the police drive into the lot, the clerk can alert you. I know all three clerks who work at the book store I go to. I have had all three of them as well, many times. +What I like about the adult book store video booths is that you can either have sex anonymously or you can have men get in the booth with you. There have been many times where the men will rent a large booth and invite other men to join us. These are the occasions where I get gang banged and all the men get to watch as well as have me. +Many adult book stores have large booths with make-shift beds in them. Those are nice. I have rented these rooms myself at times. The advantages of the larger booths are more men can join you, you have room to lie down and there is just more room. +I think the reason I like adult store video booths is that they make me feel slutty. The floors have cum all over them and the men just want to shoot their loads, in anyone. There have been men who have used their phones to video me sucking them and other men. Another great thing is that a lot of the book stores have condoms in the booths, although I never let the men use them. Either way, you have a choice, but if you are in an adult book store video booth naked and sucking men off, why bother with the condoms. Just have fun and let the men have their fun, too. +On average, I get to suck and get fucked by anywhere from 10-20 men every time I go to the adult book store. I have gone during the day and sucked and fucked up to 30 guys. This can all happen in about 2-4 hours. It doesn't have to take up your whole day. You can go to the adult book store early in the day, suck and fuck 10-15 guys, go home, get done what you have to do at the house, or do your running around and go back in the afternoon and suck and fuck another 10-15 men. If you make it a habit, the men will catch on and you may get to suck and get fucked by some of the men quite often. +Another great thing about many of the adult book stores is that the video booth area is usually really dark. I have gone to video booths where the only real light was coming from the videos themselves. That made it more exciting for me. It's dark, I'm naked and men know it. +Another thing I like about the adult store video booths is that the men are there for one reason, to get off. And if you go to the video booths not only do the men get to get off, but you get to have them get off in you. Where the men cum is up to you. I prefer to have men cum inside of me. I have taken a girlfriend with me to the video booths and she prefers to have the men cum in her mouth. All in all, when the two of us go to the booths together, we and the men all have a great time. +If you are still unsure of yourself, maybe you don't have a good image of your body or your sexual skills, book stores are a good place to practice your skills and to find out that other men really do want to have sex with you. The men who go to adult book stores want sex. They hope for sex. A lot of people say only gay men go to book stores to suck guys off. I say why should they be the only ones who get to have all the fun? +Another thing that makes adult book store video booth sex so great is that the men don't want romance. They want to get their cocks sucked or to fuck you, or both. When you leave the book store you know you have had sex, you know you had a great time and that you leave it all behind you until next time. +My husband loves it when I call him at work and tell him I am going to the adult book store. He knows why I am going and he knows what happens when I do. It makes his day better knowing that while he is at work I am at the video booths sucking and getting fucked, and that when he gets home he gets to play in all the cum the men have shot inside of me. +There are times when I do not feel sexy or attractive. When I go to the video booths, the men change that. They let me know that I am sexy and attractive. They let me know that I am still desirable. And I like that. Even if you are overweight, you can still be sexy. +There are a lot of men who like bigger women. And men at video arcades like women in general. That is why I tell a lot of self-conscious women that video booths are a great place to build their confidence. +As a larger woman, you can be just as sexy as a 120-pound hard body is. A lot of men want a woman who has more to her than skin and bones. A lot of men have told me that they feel that larger women are often better and do more, sexually, than skinnier women. Prove to men that bigger women are better and do more. +If you are a larger-bodied HotWife, you have the opportunity to change how men see larger women. You have the opportunity to prove to men that although you may not be 120 pounds, you are still very capable of giving them the best sex of their life." +20,Advice for Wayward Phone Sex Girls,HawkerDeHavilland,How To,2013-02-20,2013-02-20,2022-01-04 08:25:37,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/advice-for-wayward-phone-sex-girls,A working girl's script for pregnant phone sex.,"['Late Term Pregnancy', 'Phone Sex', 'Phone Sex Script', 'Pregnancy', 'Pregnant And Horny', 'Young And Pregnant']",4.58,"**Advice for the wayward phone sex girl: a script** +Ah, the challenged lifestyle of the phone sex girl! +Imagine it from their point of view: log in, get a call from God knows who and be ""sexy"". +Housewives, mothers, single girls and working women part-time become that sweet voice on the other end of the phone.

And that's okay. +When looking for sexual playmates, you want to look for what you can't get at home. If your husband has a small penis, you may want to experience a man with a larger penis. If your husband is timid in bed, you may want a more aggressive man. The great thing is that you have options. +You already know what it's like to have sex with your husband, but wouldn't it be nice to experience what you felt the first time you made love to and with him or any other guy. Sex with strangers can be exciting and very fun. It allows you to be a teenager again and have the fun you had when sex was new. +The important thing to remember is that all men are going to be different. Some men are going to be more experienced and some men are not going to have much experience at all. You have to choose whether you want to have sex only with men who have a lot of experience, or if you are going to try out several men. And you have to try out several men to find just the right ones. +Having too many rules can make things strange. I have only had two rules; No physical, real pain, and NO CONDOMS. I like to keep it simple. I don't want to put too much thought into sex because it shouldn't be something you have to work out. Sex should be spontaneous and fun. +I don't like condoms because they make me raw, and they just feel weird. Men, my husband included, tell me that when they wear condoms that they can't feel anything. I think that both, or all, people involved in sex should feel everything. I also like the feeling of a man cumming inside of me. So, it is up to you if you want men to wear condoms or not. I have found that most men don't want to wear them, and I am very okay with that. +Every couple is going to have their own set of rules, but keep in mind, in the throes of passion, some rules go out the window. It just happens. The only rule that should always be paramount is that of being honest with each other, you, your spouse, and your lovers. Tell your husband what you want, tell your lovers what you want, and allow them to show you what they want. +Friends make great lovers, yet they can become clingy. Strangers are best for sex, at first, because of the thrill of someone new. +For some wives having sex with another man can be scary. That is why your husband must be there. You want your husband's protection, but you also don't want to say no to a lover because if you do, you may lose out on a very pleasurable experience. Once the two of you feel comfortable, you can agree on you having lovers alone, without him being there. And you can go to lovers and be just with them. +Being a Hotwife, which is what you will essentially be, is a special position to be in. You are what other men crave and experience their fantasies with. And by being a Hotwife, you not only can please other men, but you also please your husband at the same time. +What should you look for in a potential sex playmate? +First, you should ask yourself what matters to you. Do you want to experience sex with a man who has a large penis? Do you care if he has facial hair? Is his weight important to you? These are things you have to consider when looking for a sex playmate. +If you want your sex playmate to be the best sex you have ever had, you have to be the best he has ever had. This means that you have to be open to new experiences. I am not saying that you shouldn't have boundaries. What I am saying is that you have to be open to possibilities. +If you are not into, or very good at, giving a man oral sex, I suggest you work on that. When other men come to you, or you go to them, the best part is when you show them that you really want them to please you. The best way to do that is to show them that you want to please them. +Men love confident women. So, when you get with a new sex playmate, it is best to be very open and allowing. +Kissing is a cross-cultural foundation of romantic relationships and has been throughout the ages. It's a fundamental expression of desire, intimacy, adoration, and passion for one's romantic partner. Certainly, some people are more ""kissy"" and comfortable with physical affection than others. And some women even refuse to kiss their sex playmates. Where's the sense in that? +Kissing is something I always do, no matter who I am having sex with. I like to kiss and I liked to be kissed. Men like to kiss, too. Make sure that this is part of your sexual play. It can only enhance the experience. If the guy isn't a great kisser, it really won't matter once everything else starts happening. And to be honest, most husbands want you to be as intimate as you can be with other men. It turns them on. +How you dress when you meet a new playmate is going to be important, too. You want to dress revealing or wear something easily pulled up, down, or off. You want to make sure that your sex playmate knows that you are available and accessible. Do Not wear panties or bras. They get in the way. +When you are looking for a sex playmate, remember that men like it dirty, too. Express your inner truck driver or sailor. Talk dirty. When you're telling him what you want him to do, say it like he wants to hear it. Not only will it excite him, but it will also benefit you in the long run. +It's okay to tell him to ""fuck me hard and deep! Give me that cock and make me your whore!"" Tell him to, ""Fuck me like a slut with your big cock!"" Men love hearing that, and it sets the sex you are having apart from everyday lovemaking. +Men love women who are open to trying new things in the bedroom. Everyone has a different sexual appetite, so be adventurous and willing to try new flavors. It's boring to do the same thing all the time anyway. It's also important not to make a guy feel bad about anything he wants to do. When you're open to his fantasies, he'll feel safe to express himself sexually with you on a deeper level. +LEARN TO SWALLOW! When you swallow a man's cum it tells him that you accept him completely. And it is a thank you to him, as well, for all that he has done for and with you. +For men, sex is very much about feeding their egos. They want to feel desired, appreciated and worshipped. And this is why oral sex is so important to men. They are fixated on it so much because they want you to worship their cocks just as much as they do. The key to giving a mind-blowing BJ is actually enjoying it. Having the power to send your man over the edge with a knee- buckling, thigh-quivering orgasm should make you feel sexy as hell. +Make eye contact with your man while you suck him and let him see how much pleasure it gives you to please him. You'll make him feel like a rock star! And he will do the same for you! +You want the men you get with for sex to want you. So, you have to show them you want them. Kiss them, rub them, go down on them. Take them to the bedroom and have them undress you, then undress them. Get excited. Once on the bed with your legs in the air, get into it! Show him how much you love having him do what he is doing to you. Tell him how good it feels. +Telling him to use you will make him get more excited. Men like to be told what to do in bed, in certain ways. And some guys like to be very manly in bed and get a little rough. Let them. +Be vocal in bed! Guys like screamers. Guys like women who are loud in bed. Be what he needs and he/they will be just what you need. And don't just lay there, move your hips, grind on him, get excited and let him know that he excites you. +Don't Fake It! Women usually mean well when they fake an orgasm. They don't want to bruise their man's ego. So, they just let him think he finished the job. However, you're actually giving positive reinforcement for something that didn't work. If your man isn't pleasing you, tell him how he can. Above all, your man really does want to please you. And faking it doesn't allow him to be the best lover he can be. +If you know that you aren't going to come and you are ready to finish, you can just tell him/them. A direct instruction such as, ""I want you to cum in me, fill me up, baby"" will let him know he's free to let himself go without worrying about whether it's been long enough for you. +It's up to you now to find the men you are going to play with, maybe more than once. But don't discount the one-timers. Let your husband go online and find men to have sex with you. Go online yourself and look for men to have sex with. The important thing is to find men for sex. You already have a great husband who is allowing you to have sex with other men. What are you waiting for?" +22,Affairs for Dummies,Evolution20XX,How To,2008-04-28,2008-04-28,2022-01-04 08:25:38,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/affairs-for-dummies,A tongue-in-cheek guide to affairs.,"['Affairs', 'Cheating']",4.22,"People who preach monogamy are always saying that affairs ruin marriages. +I'm here to tell you they don't, not by themselves anyway. +Depending on the reason for the affair, stepping outside the house can actually hold a marriage together. Both people are happy; who cares where the happiness is coming from? However, poorly managed affairs can indeed ruin a marriage. So, here is my manual to having your cake and eating it too, affectionately called ""Affairs for Dummies."" NOTE: These rules are not arranged in any particular order; just written down as I come up with them. +Rule #1: Make sure you know why you want the affair. +If it's love or affection you're looking for, get a divorce. Now. If your emotional needs are not being filled at home, your life will be a nightmare. Emotional attachment is what will make you want to spend inordinate and suspicious amounts of time away from the home and with the other person, and that's how people get caught. Emotions also tend to make us complacent, and we don't cover our tracks as well. If you are simply not getting any physical action, then this guide is for you. If your relationship lacks emotionally, you may need professional help. In more ways than one. +Rule #2: Never have someone lie to cover your tracks. +There's a joke that goes like this: ""A married woman went out for the evening. When she didn't come home at a reasonable time, he called all of her friends, but none of them had seen her. When she came home the next morning, she explained that she had been at a different friend's house. Some time later, he goes out for the night. When he didn't come home, she called all his friends. Eight said he had been at their house, and three said he was still there."" +Gender bias aside, if you ask someone to lie for you once, they could very well assume they need to do that all the time. If it doesn't get you busted outright, it will draw a *lot* of suspicion to you. +Rule #3: Have affairs. +That's right; I said ""affairs,"" plural. Having more than one piece on the side goes a great way in keeping things at a platonic simmer without emotionally boiling over. If one of your extras decides they want more than you can give them, let them have it. +With somebody else. +Needless to say, having multiple sex partners increases your risk of being exposed to STDs, not to mention that nasty pregnancy bug, so use condoms, but keep in mind... +Rule #4: Never pay for anything with a credit card that your spouse has access to. +All your spouse has to do is beat you to the mail one day and look at the bank statement; next thing you know, you're getting the third degree about a $90 charge to the local Holiday Inn. +Actually, never pay for anything with a credit or debit card period, for that matter. Receipts tend to fall out of pockets, and if you pay for things with a card, your name is on that receipt. Spouse finds that... Just use an ATM. +Rule #5: Use the Internet. +The anonymity of the Internet is a great shield that protects you from the possible downfalls that could occur with someone you meet in a public place. For instance, let's say you and your spouse frequent a certain social spot together. During one of your solo visits there, you meet someone and start an affair. You have just placed yourself in the danger zone, because even *if* the other person knows you're married, they may still walk up to you and speak when you're with your spouse. Needless to say, that can spark a conflagration right then and there. +Just remember Rule #4 if you find yourself paying for any dating sites. +Rule #6: Make the first meeting a medium between public and hidden. +If you can, meet in a park somewhere. There's likely to be enough space for you and your companion to meet unnoticed, plus you might even be able to talk them into the woods so you can get some right then and there. Failing that, meet somewhere where there are so many people that you can get lost in the crowd, like a mall or supermarket. +Rule #7: Learn your spouse inside and out. +If you're going to have an affair, you need to know your spouse's behaviors. You need to know where they are every minute of every day. If they go to lunch outside the home or office, you need to know where and when. Nothing quite says ""I love you"" like being caught by your spouse having a meal with another person that is not the same gender as you. Pretending to be co-workers rarely works in that tight a spot, because people often have at least a basic understanding of what their spouses do for a living and can always quiz you to see how much you know about your ""job."" +Speaking of co-workers... +Rule #8: Never have an affair with a co-worker. +I personally don't endorse sleeping with co-workers even if you *are* single, and if you physically do the deed at work, then you deserve to get caught. Co- worker sex is bad because: 1) It gives people something to blackmail you with; and 2) if the affair ends, particularly if it ends badly, you still have to deal with that person on a daily basis until one of you finds another place of employment. Of course, if work is the only place you actually have contact with other flesh-and-blood humans, then Rule #9 applies double for you: +Rule #9: Develop additional outlets for your interests and hobbies. +Let's say you enjoy playing computer games; find an Internet café to hang out at. Like to read? Get a library card, preferably more than one if you can. This gives you safe reasons to leave the house. However, this doesn't mean if you come home and sit on the couch until dinnertime that you suddenly start going to the gym for three hours a night. If you're like me, however, and do some kind of daily structured physical activity, then a gym membership will work for you. I wouldn't advise even looking for a 24-hour gym, though; unless you work nights, most spouses will get extremely suspicious of you wanting to go to the gym at 1 in the morning. +And needless to say, make sure you occasionally indulge your newfound interest, instead of always using it as a cover. You never know when your spouse may want to join you, and it helps being able to explain to him or her a little bit about where you've been spending your free time the last few months or so and what you do there. +Rule #10: Meet people who have circumstances conducive to an affair. +This is probably the second-most broken rule in affairs. People chase a prospective affair mate, only to realize that actually getting together is like pulling teeth. If you're married, other married people are almost out of the question; neither of you has a secure place that you can meet up at on a whim, and you both have to work your way out of the house, which two different people are rarely able to do at the same time. Outdoors sex is never a bad thing, but it's risky; nothing says ""I love you"" quite like coming home with a citation for public indecency because you got caught having sex in public, especially if that sex didn't involve your spouse. Maybe you're lucky enough to have a single friend who knows and accepts your extramarital promiscuity; if so, do everything possible (but within reason) to keep that person happy. I'm not saying you should use people, but the equivalent of a low-cost (or even free) hotel room is nothing to laugh at. (Hey, I call 'em like I see 'em.) +Rule #11: Put some distance between you and your affairs, but not too much. +Good affairs are like real estate: location, location, location. Find partners that live a comfortable distance away from where you live and work, but are close enough that visiting them isn't time-prohibitive. A good rule of thumb is to take the amount of time you can ""sneak out"" on average; less than 25 percent of that time should be spent traveling. Someone who lives between five and 15 minutes from you is a good goal to shoot for. +Rule #12: Anyone who has ever, or who may ever have occasion to, set foot inside your house is OFF LIMITS! +This is the third most-broken rule when it comes to affairs, but it's the one that brings the most disaster, and I'm speaking mostly to the men when I say this. When your wife hires that hot twenty-something babysitter and you have to drive her home at night, and she invites you in? Don't do it. When she's lost a little bit of her pre-marriage figure, and you meet her tight-bodied girlfriends, do you get horny wondering about the things they might be able to do for you that your wife can't? Hands off, look but don't touch. Women tend to be more susceptible to guilt about sleeping with the spouse of one of her associates, so the likelihood that she'll spill the beans to your spouse is leagues higher. +Of course, I'm speaking *mostly* to the men, but that doesn't mean that women are exempt from this rule. In fact, women need to pay even stricter adherence to this rule than men, but for different reasons. Let's say your husband has his buddies over to watch the game one day, and one of the guys ends up taking a little longer than normal in the bathroom. Guess what, ladies? For a woman, that's a guilt trip; for guys, that's bragging rights. You have just become the group's whore; all it takes is for one of the guys to brag about how good Jack's wife is (all without poor Jack knowing, of course) and every other guy in the group will want a piece of you. Don't ask me why; we're just idiots like that, I suppose. And groups of your husband's friends are like Lay's potato chips: you can't have just one. Once they get wind that you gave one of them the goods, you will be faced with a decision: screw them all, or they start singing to your man about how you screwed his best friend. +Now, let's talk about neutral ground: delivery persons, repairers, folks of that sort that come around as part of their profession. Let's just say, people like to work in places where there are extra benefits involved. Nobody has problems with their cable, air conditioning, receives packages or orders take- out every day. +Rule #13: Avoid being seen in public together. +It's too easy for someone that knows you, and more importantly knows that you're married, to walk up on you in public with someone that is not your spouse. Just make sure that the other person understands the need for discretion, which first and foremost involves... +Rule #14: Make sure the person(s) you are having (an) affair(s) with KNOW(S) YOUR MARITAL STATUS!!! +If you're single, say you're single. If you're married, say you're married. If you're an escapee from a polygamist sect, proceed directly to the nearest law enforcement building; nobody wants to get jumped by seven people who all claim to be married to you, especially when they all agree with each other. +And with that, my guide on affairs has almost come to a close, ending with the most important rule of all: +Rule #15: HAVE FUN!!!" +23,Aftercare Matters,XlornX,How To,2020-09-11,2020-09-11,2022-01-04 08:25:39,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/aftercare-matters,A submissive's view on BDSM Aftercare.,"['After Care', 'Bdsm', 'Bondage', 'Discussion', 'How-To', 'Kink']",4.47,"The Importance of Aftercare: +Aftercare is an essential part of the D/s dynamic and the responsibility for proper aftercare belongs to both Dom and sub equally. The purpose of this article is to introduce the idea and importance, however, in no way is it meant to be the consummate guide to all things aftercare. Trust and communication is key to any long-term relationship, be it vanilla or sprinkled with kink, so make sure you discuss with your partner exactly how aftercare and limits fit into your playtime. Concern for physical and mental health is integral to a healthy relationship and you may be surprised by how equally important the check-in, acknowledgement and comforting aspects are to both the Top and bottom of a scene. +Caring for your sub: +Of the Dominant, much is expected; you rule the room, your word is law and you must know which buttons to push and how hard to strike within a given situation. Consent for all aspects of a scene is a must, as are the conversations leading up to a play date in order to clarify limits, safe words and scheduling -- you never want to scene and split, this can be detrimental in numerous ways. +=================================================================== +After the last tremors of orgasm have run through their body. And you've released the methods of bondage from the evening's scene, you watch them retract from spread-eagle on the bed, to curling into the fetal position on their side, shuddering, shaking and still catching their breath. +The air is thick, the room is dark, and the music is low. +You know you'll need to turn up the light for an inspection, but for now you grab a bottle of water and gently rouse your sub. First, calling their name gently, waiting for a response and then lying down to embrace them silently. After a few moments they are ready for a drink and the fog seems to have lifted. Subspace is a very real and delicate thing so make sure your sub is fully conscious and firmly set back into the 3D world around them. +=================================================================== +What about psychological aftercare? Immediately reassure. Tell your sub they are loved, beautiful and important. When a scene includes humiliation or degradation, review for triggers before getting back to daily life. Then, a mental check in a day or two should help reconnect with your partner to discuss what worked and what didn't. Finally, make sure your sub knows if they need to talk about anything you are there and willing to listen. +Caring for your Dom: +Yes! Doms need aftercare too! Reconnecting with your Dom helps bring equality back into the room. You are two parts of a whole, right? Finding balance after an intense session is crucial to finding that comfort to share your truest feelings about the scene. After all, why do we play if not to enjoy O/ourselves? +Remember, the Dom sets the stage, They wield the whip and take upon Their shoulders the sanity and survival of Their partner. Psychologically- They must decide what limits to push, when its been 'enough' and pick up the pieces if it is ever becomes 'too much'. +=================================================================== +""Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown."" ~ W. Shakespeare ""Henry IV"" +=================================================================== +Appreciate your Dom! Acknowledge the hard work and energy that goes into a scene. First, offer hydration -- They just had a hell of a work out too! Second, give praise. You know you could never reach the heights of pleasure They bring you to on your own! And show your gratitude... be it through a sensual massage or performing oral sex. There should be time set aside that is just for Them. In days that follow your playtime, make sure you reiterate what you enjoyed and ways your Dom made you feel safe, secure and cared for, the reassurance that the scene was a success can mean a big boost to Their ego and self-worth so don't be stingy with the compliments! It may be difficult to have this conversation, especially when you are first starting out, so consider writing a letter or leaving a voice mail expressing your gratitude and acknowledging the fortitude and forethought that goes into a fulfilling scene. +Caring for A/all: +When we choose to become vulnerable with another person, it is a huge gift.

The choice is between immediate imposition or carefully scheduled (and delayed) punishment. Neither is always appropriate: the dominant needs to decide which approach is suggested by the circumstances of the sub's misbehavior. +Immediate imposition of discipline usually is selected when the sub has behaved badly in front of others and will thus benefit from being punished in their presence or nearby the scene of the crime. Of course, if the sub has gone so far as to challenge her domme's authority or position, most dominants would highly recommend that punishment be meted out right then and there, and with a significant degree of severity. This stern approach is mandated by the need to assure those present that the dominant is in control. +But when it appears necessary to shame the sub for his or her atrocious conduct, especially when this has occurred with others viewing the behavior, the dominant should be prepared to take matters into her hand, literally, with quick preparation and speedy imposition of punishment. +Often, the dominant will find herself taking the sub in hand literally, adjusting the sub's clothing by raising a skirt, and lowering panties or trousers, and then positioning the sub over her lap for a spanking or bending the sub over a convenient table, desk, or couch for application of the cane or strap. +Sometimes, it may be appropriate to state for those in attendance what the sub's offense was and that she is now going to be disciplined. The domme may wish to invite all of the onlookers to remain in the room to witness the punishment, which of course adds to the shaming factor. +""Susie has just misbehaved and with your indulgence, I will now give her a spanking right here so she may benefit from all of you observing her being disciplined,"" is one possible statement. This kind of statement also serves to notify those who, even in an audience comprised largely of those who support physical discipline, may have qualms about seeing a grown man or woman humiliated by having their clothing removed and then being spanked or caned in front of the group. +If the gathering is one that is for those both aware of and fond of discipline, then the domme may choose to make a more detailed statement of the situation. She may recite in some detail what the sub has done to earn the award of spanking or caning, and then carefully outline how the punishment will be administered. At this time, the domme may also choose to involve others present in the imposition of discipline. For many subs—both male and female—shame is intensified when their domme invites others, especially younger women, to join in spanking or caning the sub. +Sometimes the dominant may not wish to discipline before everyone present, and thus a good alternative may be to move behind a screen where those at the gathering may hear but not see the discipline being imposed. Since the mind remains the most powerful sex organ, those within hearing will be able to discern pants or panties being pulled down and then hear the spanking being given. The sub knows that this is being listened to by the others and is shamed almost to the extent that full viewing would produce. +We now may turn to the more general subject of preparation for discipline. First, the issue of scheduling a punishment should be examined. There is great benefit in postponing imposition of discipline to permit the sub to reflect on his or her offenses, and more importantly, to have their thoughts dominated by their wondering about exactly how and even when they will be punished. +Thus, the dominant may merely tell the sub that he or she has behaved badly and will be punished. She may go on to specify the time and place of disciplining: ""You will report to my room tomorrow at 4:00 P.M. for your punishment."" She may stop there or indicate that the sub will be spanked, caned, or strapped. +Many dominants feel that it is far better to refrain from specifying the nature of the punishment until the time for imposition arrives. Not knowing how he or she will be punished, the sub will constantly be worrying about how serious the discipline will be. If the domme says that he or she will be spanked or caned, the sub will then start thinking about how many strokes will be given or how long the spanking will last. And the sub may not be sure whether the punishment will be given in private or whether others will be invited to witness the event. +Preparation next should focus on the domme's deciding what pre-punishments or humiliations may add to the overall impact of the discipline. Some dommes require male subs to wear women's panties for the day preceding the actual spanking or caning; female subs may be told to wear very tight panties or perhaps little girls' panties adorned with ducks or bunnies. The major aim of this preparatory step is to increase the sub's feeling that the punishment will be a major happening. +Usually dominants expect that subs reporting for punishment will be dressed at least formally enough for work. Women will be expected to wear dresses and hose; men should appear in a suit or at least jacket and tie. I always get a charge out of having a male sub pull down his trousers so I can see the pink panties I've order him to wear all day before reporting to me for his punishment. +Another part of preparation is examining the sub's clothing and person when they arrive. Extra punishment follows if clothing is sloppy in any way. With women, I find that close scrutiny of the cleanliness of their panties tends to weaken their resolve—it becomes truly embarrassing when I question them about the source of stains. +Men, too, get embarrassed, first because they are wearing panties in the first place. But if I comment on cum stains or skid marks, they tend to turn very red in the face. +If I find stains in a woman sub's panties, I then tell her that she will be fully examined. I may insert a white cloth anally and then show it to her if it emerges with fecal stains. If there are cum stains, she may be subjected to a full pelvic exam. And if she is having her period, she will remove her tampon and show it to me. +When a caning has been decreed, I learned from some famous mistresses I have met to give the sub at least a day to think about how many strokes they may be getting. I do make them count, do not tell them how many they will be given (partly because I decide on that as the punishment proceeds), but warn them that I will start from one if they lose count. +I agree with the experts who advise to cane, strap, or spank on the fleshy parts of the bottom, not too high and not too much on the thighs. I may use a light whip or martinet lightly between a woman sub's legs but I avoid penis punishment as I wouldn't want to inflict injury. Yes, pussies are liable to be injured, too, but can withstand light strokes. For most women, just the idea of being disciplined ""down there"" inspires intense distress. +Follow-up is the third major aspect of any disciplinary imposition. One practice frequently chosen is corner time. This, of course, may occur before the punishment as well as after, but the impact of having the sub stand or kneel in the corner after being spanked or caned is heightened by their red bottom being on full display. Corner time is effective both in driving home the punishment by forcing the sub to think about what she or he did to earn the discipline they received and in increasing their shame by displaying their punished parts to all who may be present or pass by. +One refinement requires the sub to keep his or her nose touching the corner. Usually the skirt is pinned up and panties are lowered or removed. With men, trousers and shorts are kept lowered. Some dominants choose to extend the punishment by making the punished sub kneel in the corner—this may be made more severe by placing uncooked rice grains or dried peas on the floor beneath their knees. +Another follow-up measure is to make the sub wear embarrassing clothing for the rest of the day or longer following the disciplinary imposition. With women, this might feature their donning a very short skirt that will expose their panties. Clearly, this is a very embarrassing extra punishment—it may be increased by making the sub go without any underwear. Men may be made to wear all kinds of embarrassing clothing as well: it may be difficult to have them wear women's clothing in public when it is obvious that the wearer is male, but a frilly blouse will instill some shame. Even when items such as bras and panties are worn under a suit or other male attire, the wearer will be afraid of others recognizing that the feminine underclothing is being worn and will feel some shame in wearing it. +Another area for refining the nature of the punishment experience is regulation of bathroom access. Being told he or she will be disciplined often makes both men and women need to urinate. Some dominants prefer to allow use of the toilet prior to any imposition to avoid creating a mess. Others feel that making the sub retain prior to and during the punishment adds to the impact of the entire process. Since subs will naturally assume that they will be permitted to use the toilet once the punishment has been completed, restricting access after disciplining extends the punishment. This is intensified if corner time is employed while a sub is struggling to control his or her bladder." +25,Ambiguity and Writing,JagFarlane,How To,2013-02-21,2013-02-21,2022-01-04 08:25:41,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/ambiguity-and-writing,How being a bit vague can help your writing.,['Writing'],4.44,"Writers are often challenged with how to describe things and make a scene more real with details and yet how do you go about doing this while not breaking the spell the reader is hopefully in. One of the techniques that I like to employ is being a bit ambiguous versus giving very specific details. It doesn't work for every situation or every audience but it is fairly useful for most situations. +Why am I suggesting to be ambiguous? Well a lot of that comes from being too specific can sometimes alter the reader from being lost in the story to suddenly wondering what exactly a ten inch long by six inch in diameter mega cock would look like. When a writer gives numbers to a description, while you're giving someone an exact idea as to the object it can easily distract them. Also the problem with using measurements is that there are two systems of measurement in the world and the audience is global. Reading something in inches can easily make someone who is used to metric measurements stop reading your story in order to figure out exactly how that would look in terms of the metric system. +Instead of writing about exact details, giving descriptions like Jack's endowment was lengthy, well above average with an impressive girth to match, allows for the readers mind to shape the size the way they would wish to see it. More importantly it allows for uninterrupted story reading and keeping the reader within the realm of the story is what it's all about. +There are of course times where measurements are desired, some people are admittedly size queens and they may very well know the sizes they are necessarily looking for. This sort of situation falls under the idea of knowing your audience, if your targeted audience may be full of size queens then perhaps you'd be best putting in specific measurements in the system that they are most likely to be familiar with. +While we're on the idea of size queens, let's talk about the use of size in a story. Guys, let's be honest all too often male writers tend to focus on the size of the member and tend to write male leads that have enormous members, all the time. Now, while guys with large endowments do exist they're not as common in life as they are in stories and the reality is that they can cause pain in a woman. For the sake of the female readership it is advisable to perhaps tone it down a bit in the size department. Focus more on the actual use of his dick and a little less on him giving a porn star a run for their money. +It's not just in the area of penis measurement that we need to cut out the use of exacting sizes but also in the realm of women's bra sizes. Seriously, I don't think most of us could picture a woman with a size 36D exactly, instead it's easier to just imply she has an ample chest or other descriptors implying she has a larger than average chest helps the reader in not being shocked out of the story. +Finally a touch of realism is something that a lot of stories could use. Fantasies are nice and all, but having a little bit of realistic things happen can help a story immensely. It doesn't have to be much, just a little bit, enough to nudge along a reader so that they think that yes, this could really happen can truly sell a story. I'm not sure why writers tend to shy away from realism, the more real things that occur it seems the more the reader is willing to allow you license to be a bit crazy. If a character does something that perhaps seems a bit out of the normal, giving a decent explanation could help keep your readers from asking what the hell you just had the characters do. +I'm not saying that you can't type out something like ""Marcy rode John's 12"" cock while her 36DD's bounced heavily upon her chest."" Instead I'm saying you should be a bit more vague, tone down a lot of these tight restrictions on what is going on and add a bit of reality. By doing that you can turn out something a bit more like this, ""Marcy groaned deeply as she was stretched by John's massive cock with each stroke. Each movement caused her sweaty, heavy breasts to bounce upon her chest."" A bit vague, but in a lot of ways more powerful and allowing for the reader's mind to envision what they would like.

Yet another friend tells of her guy coming up behind her, while she brushed her teeth at the sink, and just going for it. Still others have seen that infamous scene inDeliverance, and cringe every time they hear ""Dueling Banjos"". For every person who loves anal, many more tell cautionary tales, relating bad experiences because of inconsiderate partners, wrong or insufficient information, little or no preparation and impatience. The good news is that, with consideration for her, communication, trust and preparation, you can avoid all of this, and hopefully win another over to the dark side of the moon. +Anatomical basics: +""Woe boy, the butt is not just a tighter pussy!"" While the vagina can +expand like a balloon to accommodate girth - baby's pop outa there after all – the tissues of the rectum are some of the most delicate in the body. They are not supposed to stretch far, and do **NOT** lubricate themselves. This last bit is most important. Do not believe what you read or see in porn; it is a myth that a little spit on your dong will make it all good. It won't! A little transplanted pussy juice won't sufficiently combat the ""ring sting"" either! Think about it. We've probably all had a big bowel movement that either hurt coming out, or caused pain we noticed later on. ""Hmm, I think I can see the stitching on the baseball!"" Blood is not a good lubricant for anything! +Condoms, to use or not to use: +If you're using condoms, do not use those coated in spermacide as the delicate tissues where we're going are easily irritated. Be careful with products containing perfumes, dyes, and sugars. Smucker's Plumb Preserves are not the right lube, despite what Little Jack Horner may have told you. If you're using condoms, also use a water-based lubricant, and lots of it! More than you think you need is almost enough. +If you're not using condoms, assuming things have been nicely inspected, cleaned, prepared and gently probed, and neither of you have STD's or hepatitis, you can use oil-based lubes. Believe it or not, a clean anus is probably no dirtier than the average human mouth, which is actually teeming with nasty bacteria. Personally, I love good ol' baby oil back there. It's delightfully slick and slippery, and it doesn't disappear like some of the water-based lubes do. Besides that, its innocent smell contrasts nicely with the rather raunchy taboo activity you're about to engage in. Cleaning and preparing is a necessary part of it, so enjoy it and think of it as a cleansing ritual. Cuddle in the bath together. +Preparing thy way: +Besides lube, the other watch word to keep in mind is RELAX! This cannot be +willed or forced mentally. The sphincter, that cute wrinkly muscular ring at the +entrance, is under involuntary control. You cannot fake being +relaxed or ready, any more easily than you can stop your heart or +stop breathing. If you're afraid, tense, or nervous, it'll stay tight! Cumming hard a couple times, through whatever way works best for her, may help a lot. +""Love, is a Burning Thing; and It Leaves a Fiery Ring"": +And now, we learn the other meaning of ""digital."" First, train the butt to accept small things before you go for the big one. Maybe give her a shoulder and back massage, and at some point, work a well-lubed baby finger in. (Kinkier readers may wish to try wearing a small butt plug while doing household chores, masturbating, or attending Easter dinner with family, to get used to that fuller feeling.) Regardless, go straight and slow and make sure your nails are trimmed short. Once she's grown +accustomed to that, go for a slightly larger finger, again, well-lubed. Eventually, you may work up to two fingers at once, and be able to gently flex them inside. The entrance is full of nerve endings and blood vessels, so it tingles and feels very intense when things move through it. +Positioning, AKA ""c'mere biotch"": +So, she's relaxed, she tells you she's ready, everything is all soft and yielding and slick with lube. It's time to get very very intimate back there. Maybe things are more relaxed if she's on her tummy, pillows making everything comfortable. Maybe her lying on her side is more comfortable. Both are probably better than her on all-fours or on top, neither of which promote the necessary relaxed state. Maybe the shower or bathtub will work better than the bed - you're going there after anyway. +""Shake hands with Beef"": +Lube up your cock and maybe squirt a last little bit into the cute quivering little target. Maybe get her to lube you up. This might get her more excited, feeling the large, smooth, greasy thing about to enter her most private area. +Pop Goes the Weasel: +Carefully aim straight ahead, go slow and listen for directions from her whether to stop or move forward. Getting the head past the tight opening is the trickiest part. Telling her to push, as if she's trying to expel you, is helpful. This doesn't actually push anything out; instead, it helps the muscles relax and loosen. The entrance will probably yield with a little ""pop"" feeling that I'm sure both of you will like. Stop once you're +inside a little, and let her adjust to having you there, and the new and intense stimulation you are giving. If things sting a little, just relax and wait. The fullness can feel amazing if you let it! +The Train Tours Hersheyville: +Ease forward, and keep going if she says it's ok. Before you know it, you'll experience the amazing contrasting pleasures of a tight, rubbery muscle around your cock, and the lovely pillowy softness of your hips, balls, and lower belly against her buns. Gently pull back, then ease forward, noting how the lube and all the preparation makes it easy, slippery, and very hot! Again, coming to rest fully inside, the tightness combined with the softness around it, is the magic part for me. If things are perfect and relaxed, you may even be able to give a little push near the entrance, and feel the combination of lube and momentum carry you all the way back in. +""Onward Christian soldiers"": +Can you pick up some speed at this point? Yes, if she says so. The important thing to remember is to be direct. Go straight forward, don't try to be fancy. No shimmying, just follow the lovely slick road. Your cock will take the path of least resistance all on its own. Don't pull all the way out, although she may love the feeling of you pulling back most of the way before each thrust, so this too can be great. Pick up speed and always listen for directions from her. Can things get slammin' and sweaty and downright beastly? Most definitely! That's why you made all this effort in +the first place. +""And the rocket's red glare, the bomb's bursting in air"": +Yes boys and girls, saying ""no"" to ""bush"" in this way can be a political protest! At this point, cumming quite fast is not a problem, if you're anything like me. However, she will probably need some help. She can reach under and play with her clit, or tell you to do so with your hands. A vibrator could be placed under or in her. Nibbling the back of the neck, shoulders, or ears, slight or not to slight hair tugs, nipple pinches, or shoulder grasping may be required, if she likes things a little rough. You are much more likely to be permitted back there again if she enjoys it though, and her cumming hard while you're in deep greatly increases your odds! +And After?: +As always, cuddling after is nice, but even more important here after something so special and intense. Talk. Stay inside if you want, because unlike vaginal intercourse, your softening cock is less likely to slip out. A shower or bath together is both loving and good hygiene. Carefully wash and caress those tender sexy parts you just explored. Similar to what it says on the shampoo bottle: ""Sodomize. Rinse. Repeat."" +Notes: +1\. I am pleased to report that some other curious wenches have tried anal for the first time, thanks to previous versions of this document. Daddy is so proud! +2\. ""Ring of Fire"" is apparently about Hell, but who cares, right? Apologies to Johnny Cash. (Also check out the Frank Zappa cover version onThe Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life, disc 1). +3\.

We were both drunk and in a moment of passion, I suggested it and she said OK. Unenlightened and unprepared, I just tried to barge on in, even after she cried out in pain I kept going as I thought once I was in her it would be all right. The worst thing that happened was that it scared my girlfriend into thinking anal was something she didn't want to try again. I have to admit I wasn't happy about her decision but I understood her feelings and let it go. +Although I respected her wishes as we made love I kept noticing that when I touched her around her anus I could tell it turned her on. Finally, one time after making love as we nestled together I asked her if it felt good when I toyed with her backside. She told me it felt erotic when I touched her back there and I began to rub her ass cheeks slowly getting closer to her crack. When I put my fingers between her cheeks, she pushed out to allow me access to her anus. I just teased her as I lightly tapped her little rose bud. We were now fully aroused again and made passionate love as we normally did. +The next day I stopped by the drug store and purchased some grape seed massage oil. By the time my girl friend was home, I had candles burning in the bedroom and a bottle of wine opened and breathing. I told her I wanted to try anal again but I wanted to do it right this time. I made sure she understood we would only proceed at a speed she was comfortable with and only if it was painless. I assured her we would take as much time as she needed and that we were in no hurry. She was still apprehensive and only after I promised her that I would not even attempt it that night did she began to relax. She told me she was concerned about her hygiene 'Back there,' as she put it so I suggested we take a shower together to wash our backsides. The shower was fun and after she soaped up and rinsed her anus, I offered to stick my tongue in her for a test. Only after my assurance that it was something I wanted to do did she allow me to tongue her. Her response of my tongue fucking was extremely erotic and as I tongued her she played with her clit until she exploded in orgasm. We turned off the shower, dried each other and went back to the bedroom +I began by giving her bum a thorough massage with the grape seed oil. Each time I slid my hand between her cheeks she would sigh. I next began to play with her sphincter, at first just a rubbing motion as I applied pressure with my finger. I could tell this was turning her on so I introduced my fingertip inside her. Between her heightened awareness and my lubed finger, it slipped in easily to my first knuckle. At first, she froze as she realized I was now inside her so I stopped and with my fingertip still inside her I rubbed her bum and stroked hips with my free hand. I asked if she wanted me to stop but she told me no and that it felt sexy. As I began just to wiggle that first knuckle inside, she began to push back against me, clearly wanting more. As soon as I had my whole finger inside her, I rubbed the walls of her rectum gently. She screamed as she had her first anal orgasm. I was too excited to wait any longer so I turned her over and we had normal vaginal sex. She came once again with me inside her. +The next day I stopped by the sex shop on the way home and bought some anal toys for us to play with. I would suggest at least at first only using toys that are produced for anal play as they usually have a wide base to assure they don't get lost inside the anal passage. She came home excited about taking that next step and was eager to start. After a repeat of our shower scene, I showed her my purchase. I again started with an oiled massage and after I got one finger in her, I tried two. She told me two fingers inside her was a different feeling from just one. As I spread them apart she could feel her rectum opening as I rubbed her inter wall. Next, I introduced one of the smaller toys I purchased and this was the first time we actually tried a fucking motion. As we worked in tandem, her pushing back to my pushing in I could tell she was really turned on by this. +The next toy we tried was a butt plug; this devise has a wide bulge just down from the tip. Once past the sphincter muscles the bulge gave her that full feeling that a cock gives but without a strain to her entrance. We had sex with the plug still inside her and believe me this was wild for both of us. Afterwards with the plug out she said her backside was a little sore but that she had enjoyed the feeling of being so full back there. She said she felt she was ready for the real thing and to be sure, I was too. +The next night was the big night and I found I was the one who was nervous, as she seemed calm and ready. I just didn't want to mess this up as I did the last time we tried it. We decided the way to be we sure we were working at a pace my girl would enjoy would be for me to be on the bottom and for her to lower her bum on to my cock. First, I oiled her rectum and then she did me. Both of us lubed and ready to go, I laid still and she slowly impaled herself on me. This gave her full control over both speed and depth. Once she got comfortable, she began to ride me and soon I was deep inside her with no pain at all. +We now consider back door loving as a special thing and we don't use it regularly. It is not something you should do on the spur of the moment or as a quickie. As my girlfriend is the only person I've ever had anal with, I couldn't say if my method of introducing it to her will work for you. I will say this no matter how you try it, take it slow to start with, and remember if it hurts, you are doing it wrong. One other thing when done right it really feels good." +29,Anal Orgasms,penbeatsword,How To,2005-08-25,2005-08-25,2022-01-04 08:25:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/anal-orgasms,Giving and getting anal pleasure.,"['Anal', 'Multiple Orgasms', 'Orgasms', 'Rimming']",4.28,"Okay, from a guy perspective, I love doing anal. Is it because of the taboo thing? Probably somewhat. But it also feels so damn good! Mostly, I've been the penetrater, but lately I've also been getting the urge to get fucked myself. I've never been able to stimulate my prostrate from the inside (had my partners' fingers and a dildo up there before to try it), but I'm hoping someday to find out what it feels like. +Anyway, orgasms from anal.... do you get them? how do they feel? same/stronger/weaker/different than vaginal/clitoral orgasms? My experience has been that there are a lot more women that enjoy anal than people would think. I know it's not for everyone, and that's cool too. But here are some of the things I've done that's helped to result in orgasms (sometimes multiple ones) from my female partners.... +Let her set the pace, and pay explicit attention to her, what you're doing, and how she's reacting. In order for it to be good for you, it has to be good for her FIRST. +The way I tend to start off is when I'm going down on her. I use my tongue/mouth on her clit, the fingers from one hand to massage her G-spot, and take a finger from the other hand (lubricated) and just start by gently stroking and making circles around the outside of the anus. Eventually, I put a subtle amount of pressure on the anus while massaging it in a circular motion. My finger is not pointed in towards her ass, but actually the pad of the fingertip (where your fingerprint is) is what makes contact with her opening, and usually the tip is pointed towards the vagina. +With subtle pressure and circles, and plenty of lube, eventually her anus relaxes and the end of the finger starts to enter her ass. As this does, I start to reposition my finger so it's pointing into her ass. The motion starts to change to more of an in/out than circular motion, making sure that it stays well lubricated. As she loosens up and takes more of my finger in, I position my hand/finger and move it in a direction that follows the natural shape of her rectum (so I am not stretching her anus too much or poking her inside). I slide it out, relubricate and slide it back in periodically. If she loosens up enough, I will introduce a second finger. If it's too tight to fit a second finger inside, then I just let the other finger or fingers rest against the outside of her anus, rubbing it. +When she feels ready, we can choose several different positions (whichever is most comfortable for her). She can be on her back w/her knees pulled up towards her chest, rubbing her clit with one hand. Or she can be on her side, with the leg not on the bed bent and the knee pulled up towards her chest. Or on her hands and knees with her ass angled in such a way that my cock will follow the natural shape of her ass/rectum. Or (my favorite), her lying on her stomach, legs together, with me lying on top of her, supported by my elbows and knees (which are straddling her ass). +I then make sure more lube is applied in and around her ass, and a lot on my cock. I hold my cock by the base with one hand, rub the tip in a circular motion around her ass w/subtle pressure while massaging her clit with the other hand (or she does that herself). I add just a little more pressure while making the circles smaller. Then (very important) I have HER start to slowly push back against me until the tip slides inside. Usually (unless she's loosened up or pushes all the way back onto me), we stay in that position for some time until she's comfortable with it and adjusts to it being inside. Then she slowly (with my help pushing if she wants) pushes more back, and we both rock as its slides in and out deeper and deeper until I'm all the way in. I let her set the pace in terms of movement (fast/slow, deeper/more shallow penetration, harder thrusts, etc.). I also try to simulate other areas of her (neck, nipples, ears, clit, thighs, breasts, collarbones, etc.). +The key is lots of lube, lots of time, let her set the pace. Sometimes, I'll just massage her anus, and the following times we have sex we'll add a little more. Sometimes we'll do everything. WHATEVER SHE WANTS is fine by me. If she wants me to rim her, I will (works best either in or just out of the shower). The big thing for me is: getting her off turns me on. +I've found that when done properly, anal stimulation/sex can be incredible. One previous GF had hated it before me, b/c the two times she tried it with her ex before it hurt like hell. But after we tried the above method, she started having orgasms before I was even all the way inside her, and she also has multiple anal orgasms. My last ex completely swore it off before we hooked up as she was raped (sodomized) many years before. She was willing to give it another shot, and the first two sessions, the only thing I did was rub her anus during oral and rim her on a second occasion. The third time around, she came from oral w/my finger in her ass. The forth time, she had multiple orgasms when we finally had anal intercourse, and now she swears she can come from anal stimulation alone and her anal orgasms are stronger than any other types. The last time we did anal, she actually passed out after her 3rd orgasm in a row. +Who knew? +Anyway, just thought sharing our experiences might be helpful to others.... +PS: remember, Lube, Patience, Let her run the show.... +PPS: Safe sex: if you use condoms, use a water based lubricant (and lots of it) if you are using latex condoms. Oils will start to dissolve latex condoms...a BAD thing. +If you choose to go bareback, just remember that besides the disease issue, if you come in her ass, there is still a small possibility she can get pregnant if your cum leaks out of her ass and drips down and makes contact with her vaginal opening. Be extra careful when you withdraw after cumming that she is on her side or in such a way that gravity will not cause any leaking cum to run down into/across her pussy." +30,Anal Pleasure,bigbeautiful,How To,2005-06-13,2005-06-13,2022-01-04 08:25:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/anal-pleasure,The basics of making anal easy on your partner.,"['Anal', 'Anal Fucking', 'Anal Sex', 'Ass Fucking', 'Guide', 'How To Do Anal', 'Pleasure']",3.94,"I hope that both men and women who read this article do find something useful within it.

Please enjoy, vote, and feel free to comment. I look forward to your feedback! +This article is mainly from the aspect of the couple being male with female but even if that is not the case you might gain something from the article. +Anal is the most longed for forms of sex yet the most unwanted. Contradiction in terms you are thinking? Maybe so, but alas it is true. +A really high percentage of all men I have ever known and/or discussed sex with has expressed either their love for anal or their longing to find a woman that will allow them to try. +An equally high percentage of women that I have spoken to regret having anal sex or dread it when it happens. And generally seem to only do it to hold onto the man in their life to keep him from wandering or maybe just feel it is their duty to please their mate. +Although it would appear that the majority of women don't care for anal while the men love it. I have seen a few cases of ladies that love anal while some men find anal sex with women to be unattractive and a turn off. +* * * * * +First of all people should understand that anal can be and usually is very painful especially if it is not done often. The thicker the cock the more painful it can be. +One of the most important things to remember is sex is more enjoyable for most people with lots of foreplay. Foreplay comes in many forms from licking to tickling etc. Anything that can be done prior to penetration that feels erotic and makes your desire level rise could be seen as foreplay. +I would recommend a minimum of 20 minutes of foreplay for women depending on her sensitivity and her partner's ability to accomplish bringing her to the edge and back for an overpowering orgasm she will never forget. +If you can rock a woman's world with the ultimate orgasm before you begin things will be much easier for you and much more pleasurable for her. You should be using your foreplay time to prepare your partner for anal later. +The basics have to include lube and preferably natural juices from your partner and yourself. Pre-cum is an excellent lube if he can produce enough to cover his cock. +No offense ladies but just because you are wet doesn't mean it's a good wet. There is wet from being turned on and all but when you cum it has a different texture. It is thicker and allows for a nice smooth less painful entry if you can cum enough for him to use this as lube. +And let me tell you gentlemen something about using other forms of natural lube such as spitting or some form of saliva. Spitting may work for you but mostly it doesn't work for the ladies/men that receive. +There are many types of oils/lubes available that you can purchase for many uses but you must be considerate when you use these. Not all of them feel natural and most dry out so to speak fairly fast. +Lube is good for getting you in but what about after? Friction causes drying out or off however you look at it and then it becomes painful sometimes. Keep the lube handy so you can re-apply often. +Now that all sounded very technical didn't it? So lets try to put that together in a sort of how to section here. +We are skipping the how you get to the bedroom with the hugging and kissing and all and getting to the actual business at hand. +Make sure she is comfortable and in an easy access position like doggy for instance. The tricky part of anal is getting in her without too much pain. The more pain she has the harder achieving your goal is. +If you use enough lube and preparation you should be able to do this part with little trouble. You should place the head of your cock to the rim of her hole. Don't just shove it in that just makes it hurt. Let her be the one to do the work at this point. +She should slowly and at a pace she is comfortable with ease the cock in her. Doggy works well for this because you can hold steady while she pushes into you applying just the pressure she needs to inch your cock into her. +You might re-apply lube from time to time until she is ready for you to fill her up and fuck her. Take your time you have as long as you need. Work on your stamina! Remember that pussy juices are the best. If you reach around and get your fingers/hand wet with her pussy you are bound to stimulate her which has an effect on the position of your cock. Make sure you hold your place though. +Just enough pressure to keep your cock where it is and let her continue to push back into you. You can use one hand in her pussy while the other on her hip, thigh, or shoulder to pull her into you. +Working the head in and almost out but not all the way out is a good way to get deeper with less pain. In a short time you should find yourself enjoying anal. +If she is still in pain you should try giving her pussy and/or nipples much needed affection. Kissing is a very good distraction as well. Keep it wet and keep her cumming and you should both love this adventure. +If you have any questions and or comments feel free to post them in the comments section and/or send me a feedback note.

I've written this HowTo as a guide for heterosexual couples who want to introduce male penetration using strap-ons into their sexual repertoire. +Many men are interested in anal play but are either uncomfortable approaching their partner, or don't know how to bring the subject up. I'll share ideas on how to talk with your partner about male anal play, and provide some useful information on issues including selecting a dildo and harness, instructional videos, hygiene issues, and selecting lubricants. +You should know that there's no ""recipe"" on how to talk about this subject with your partner. Everyone is different and is going to have their own ideas and concerns about the topic. You're probably not going to be able to read from a script and get your partner to try this activity. It's important that you patiently communicate with your partner about your desires. +There is one point I'd like to mention before going further. Men who are interested in penetration are often stereotyped as gay. This may be an area that the male will have to provide reassurance to the female. The discussion here does imply that there's something wrong with being gay. +REALITY IS NOT PORNOGRAPHY +If you are a beginner to anal penetration, you need to forget everything you've seen in a porn flick and everything you've read in the Lit Anal section. This warning particularly applies if you're a woman interested in penetrating your male partner. +Written porn works by raising the bar; by increasing the intensity. Here are some things that are common in porn that are false in the real world. + * Sex is effortless, everyone achieves orgasm every time, and it's never awkward. * Couples are perfectly in sync and require no communication. They instinctively know how the other person likes to be pleasured even when it's their first time together. * People can be anally penetrated by very large objects and suffer little or no pain. It will ""hurt good"" at the end. * Lubricant isn't really necessary. +I could go on for pages. Reality is not like this. Don't use exposure to porn as a guide to anal sex. It's not going to work and you're going to end up hurt or frustrated, or with a hurt or frustrated partner. +MEN: BRINGING THE TOPIC UP WITH YOUR PARTNER +Unless you're in the top 2% of sexually adventurous couples it's going to take some communications and honesty to discuss this. On the bell curve of heterosexuality, male anal penetration is pretty far to the right. In other words it's not a common practice. +Here's a fantasy conversation between a couple: +Man: I'd like you to do me in the rear with a strap-on. +Woman: Sounds like fun. Let's go. +BZZT! Sorry gang! Here's a much more likely scenario: +Man: I'd like you to do me in the rear with a strap-on. +Woman: (dead silence) +When you first bring this up, your female partner is going to have a lot of things running through her mind. First and foremost will be the thought that you are gay or bisexual. This is going to probably freak her out a little bit. If your relationship has any degree of seriousness, she's going to feel really threatened. It's a natural concern and it's one you are going to have to address. +You need to speak honestly about your desires. For my partner and me, the solution was to talk openly. I enjoy being anally stimulated. I told my wife that the vibrator I owned when we first met was for me and I used it fairly often. I also told her that while I enjoyed being anally stimulated, the thought of having sex with a man was just not appealing to me. Not even a little. +Another helpful thing to do is to work on your relationship with your partner. A woman who feels adored by her man is going to be willing to go a lot further than one who feels unhappy in her relationship. Start paying more attention to her emotional needs. If you can commit to making your partner feel absolutely worshipped at least once a day you'll be amazed at the results. +It may sound like I'm advocating you manipulate your partner to get your desires met. That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that the happier you are as a couple, the more likely you are to get your needs met. It also goes without saying that the happier you are as a couple, the happier you both will be, individually. +Be prepared to bring the topic up multiple times. Like anyone does with an uncomfortable subject, your partner may try to avoid the discussion, perhaps even in hope that it will go away, altogether. You may need to be persistent (as opposed to pushy). Remember to be patient and loving in your approach; listen to your partner. Forcing your partner into something she's not comfortable with is a bad idea. You probably don't want an angry woman near your ass with a strap-on. It's just not a good idea. +One helpful method of discussing anal play is to watch an instructional video together. I'll be discussing this later. +WOMEN: BRINGING UP THE TOPIC WITH YOUR MAN +If you're a woman and you're interested in penetrating your partner with a strap-on, you're going to have some of the same issues discussed in the previous section. +A major barrier for a man to overcome would be the mental perception that you think he's gay, or if he agrees he would be admitting to being gay, or if he likes it, he must be gay. Are you sensing a theme here? Another issue your man may be sensitive to is the idea of being submissive. Let's face it, agreeing to be penetrated would be seen by most men as a submissive act. Some men enjoy being submissive and if your partner is one, it can work very well. If your partner is not comfortable being submissive and a major source of your attraction to this is female dominance, you might have some issues to work through. +If you want to introduce your male partner to anal play, you should start slowly. Leaping from the closet wearing a 10-inch dildo that's 2 inches in diameter might be exciting, but it might cause your partner to cover his ass with his hands and run screaming from the room. You might want to try rimming or orally stimulating his anus as part of foreplay. Another suggestion would be to introduce a finger into the man's anus while giving him a blowjob (make sure your nails are trimmed, and don't forget the lube!) +You'll need to gauge how receptive your partner is during this. If he attempts to withdraw, or is showing discomfort, you need to talk with him. If your partner is enjoying the attention, you might want to tell him how much you enjoy pleasing him and how excited you are by his reactions. Once you've advanced to this point, you can try introducing anal toys into your love making. A small vibrating plug may be a good start. +Now you're probably ready to bring up the subject of strap-on play. Talk honestly with your partner about why it intrigues you. If your partner is sensitive to being seen as submissive or ""gay"", it might be wise to reassure him that it wouldn't diminish his masculinity in your eyes. If your partner confesses to being open to the idea of anal penetration, it may be a good time to watch an instructional video together. +INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS +There are several instructional videos on the market that address male penetration using strap-ons. I recommend that you get one and watch it by yourself first, and then with your partner. I'm specifying instructional here as opposed to a porn title. Porn titles are not going to have the instructional information you need and will likely present false or misleading information about anal sex practices. +An instructional video can serve three purposes. First, it can provide you both with information on the mechanics of strap-on anal play. This includes things like lubrication, hygiene, and toy selection. More importantly, it can provide a chance for you to talk about things you would like or not like to do. Finally, it can reassure your mate that your desires are not totally uncommon. +When you're watching the video by yourself, think of points that it brings out that you want to discuss with your partner. In practical terms, you need to give your partner some idea of what you would like to do. Another goal should be to think about how to make this act pleasurable for your partner. If there's an act that your partner may find exciting but you feel neutral about, then you need to bring that up. +If you're a woman bringing this up to your man, then you need to draw him out on what he would find exciting. Then is the ideal opportunity for you to discuss what you found exciting and work towards a middle ground. Here are some things we discussed while watching a video: +During a video, a woman was stimulating her anus using 3-4 fingers. I said that while two fingers would be OK, and three might work, four were out of the question. +During one segment the male ejaculated onto the female and the female picked up the semen and placed some in the male's mouth. I told my female partner that if that were something she would like to do, I'd go along but it wasn't something that I was particularly into on my own. +During the video, the presenter briefly mentioned male submission. I told my partner that I could be submissive if that were something she desired. As part of the discussion on submission, I told her that while performing fellatio on the dildo wouldn't be something I would do on my own, if she found that exciting I would be willing to go there. +During another segment, a double-dildo was introduced. I was surprised when my partner said that she thought that kind of toy might be interesting to experiment with. I didn't expect that. +In short, use the video as a chance to talk about things you're interested in doing, things you're neutral about, and things you absolutely don't want to do. Find out the same things from your partner, and work together to come up with a compromise. +Here are brief reviews of two instructional videos that I've seen. +Tristan Taormino's Expert Guide to Anal Pleasure For Men (1 Hour 40 Minutes) +Vivid Entertainment +This is an excellent video, and I highly recommend it. It covers male sexuality in relation to anal play, male anatomy, hygiene, lubrication, and toy selection. The video starts out with an instructional piece. Next, an interview with a couple is done. During the interview, the presenter talks about anal play, and the couple begin anal foreplay under the supervision of the presenter. +Finally, there are three video segments where male/female couples engage in anal play. In the first two segments, strap-ons are used. In the last segment, anal toys are used on the man during fellatio and vaginal intercourse. +Honestly, my partner and I didn't enjoy the third segment very much. We felt it was shot as straight porn and had minimal educational content. The models are attractive; scenes are well lit and erotic. In addition to the main video, this title includes mini-features on prostate simulation toys, strap-on dildos and harnesses, and an enema Howto. +Bend Over Boyfriend (55 Minutes) +Fatale Video +This is an older video, and its age shows. The biggest problem is that the video is poorly lit. It appears to have been shot with a light affixed to a video camera. The close in camera work was often out of focus, or unsteady. The volume on the soundtrack was really uneven, requiring constant adjustment. +This video also focuses more on male penetration as a submissive act, and in one scene a man briefly fellates a dildo. The demonstration scenes are largely un-erotic. While there is some instructional content, it's not as well presented as other videos. +In short, while this video may have been a trail blazer, there are better videos out there. +SELECTING A DILDO -- SIZE REALLY DOES MATTER +There are three things to consider when purchasing a dildo for anal play. They are: + 1. Safety 2. Diameter 3. Length +Safety -- Anything going in the anus should have a large flared base. This applies mainly to toys. Most dildos designed for strap-on will have a flared base. Having a flared base can stop a toy from becoming ""lost"". This can prevent you from spending an unromantic evening in the Emergency Room waiting for the doctor to remove the toy from your ass. On the bright side, you would never have to worry about life's most embarrassing moment again. This would be it. +Diameter -- You need to select a dildo that's going to be comfortable, yet large enough to be stimulating. In other words, you want one that you'll be able to feel, but not so large that it will be painful. When shopping for a dildo, look for one that's roughly 1 -- 1 1/4 inches (25-35mm) in diameter. If you're a man making the purchase, try out your new toy after purchasing it. Find some alone time, and masturbate using the dildo. You don't want to find out it's too big when an inexperienced partner is trying to shove it up your butt. After you've had some experience, you can purchase a larger size if desired. +Length -- You need to have a dildo that's at least 6 inches (150mm) long for use in a harness. If it is any shorter, maintaining penetration is going to be difficult or impossible I recommend one 7 inches (175mm) in length. After you gain some experience, you can go larger if desired. +Some strap-on dildos have an integrated vibrator. This can be a really nice addition and add immensely to your pleasure. +Finally, avoid a toy with excessive rippling, excessively bulbous tip, or surface texture. While these might be OK for masturbation, when used anally with a harness the sensations will be too intense for most people. +SELECTING A HARNESS +The best advice I can give you on purchasing a harness is to shop at a reputable on-line site and read the reviews from other users. Sites catering to GLBT customers will probably have a larger selection of harnesses and more reviews on them. Try to find a site that has at least 6 or more reviews on each product you're interested in. If everyone's complaining that the harness doesn't stay in place and constantly slips, then you don't want it. +If you're considering a ""kit"", read the review for the harness and the dildo before making a purchase. Pay careful attention to sizes on ""beginner"" kits. They're usually too small. +LUBRICATION +The first rule of anal sex is that there's no such thing as too much lubrication. Use lots. Use lots and lots. Failure to use enough lubricant can result in difficult and painful penetration along with friction burns on the rectal canal. All of these things are to be avoided. +DO NOT purchase a lubricant that has pain killers or sensitivity deadening ingredients. The second rule of anal sex is that if it hurts, you're not doing it right. Using a de-sensitizing lubricant could cause you to hurt yourself (or your partner) by using too big a toy, or continuing without proper lubrication. Things might be pretty uncomfortable when the deadening agent wears off... Don't use them. +Water based lubricants are compatible with virtually all sex toys. They rinse off with warm water, and are non-staining. Water based lubricants do tend to get a little tacky over time, so you'll need to reapply lube during your sessions if they last very long. +Water based lubricants with glycerin last longer and are slipperier; they are compatible with all sex toys. While this type of lube stays slippery longer than water based lubricants, it doesn't last as long as silicone based products. These lubricants are not waterproof and may stain fabrics. +Silicone based lubricants are very slippery. You don't need very much silicone lubricant, and it will not be absorbed by the body. Silicone lubricants are also waterproof and can be used in the shower or hot tub. The one issue with silicone based lubricants is they are not compatible with silicone based toys. You can get around this by using a latex condom over the toy. +HYGIENE ISSUES +For many people hygiene issues related to anal sex are a major turn-off. With a little care, you can minimize problems. Note that I said minimize. It's just not possible to totally eliminate the possibility of some fecal material being present. Here are some things you can do to make your experience a clean one. +The person being penetrated should use the toilet if necessary. +Take a shower immediately before sex. Insert a finger with MILD soap on it into the anal canal and ensure that it's clean. In my experience, this will usually be enough to assure a relatively clean encounter. This is a great time to practice relaxing the anus. You'll be able to feel the tension with your finger if you are not relaxed. +Some people may want to use an enema, or anal douching. Anal douching is similar to an enema, but you're not introducing solution into the colon. You're just flushing the rectum with water to remove any residual feces. If you are interested in more information on this, search the internet for howtos, or find an instructional video that covers the topic. +No matter what you do, there may be the possibility of a yucky encounter. Have same paper towels nearby so that if something needs wiped off, you're ready. You'll probably want paper towels handy for removing lubricants from your hands. If you're using fingers to penetrate your partner, you can use latex gloves as well. +If you're a man who wants to interest his partner in anal play, you can experiment alone with the techniques listed above to build a comfort level. +GETTING DOWN TO IT +The most critical thing to do in your first few times of trying male penetration is to communicate. The male partner must tell the female partner what's working and what's not. For example, if the female is penetrating the male with her fingers, he may want to tell her whether he prefers an in and out motion, or a wiggling motion. Similarly, he may want an additional finger added, or perhaps not as many fingers used. If the male partner isn't communicating, the female partner needs to take the lead and ask her partner these questions. +Prior to attempting penetration with a strap-on you should help the male partner relax. This can be achieved by penetration with fingers and smaller toys. Using lots of lube, start out with a finger. As the man becomes more relaxed, add another finger or slightly larger toy. One relaxation technique men can use is to tighten their ass (it's the same muscle you'd use to stop the flow of urine while peeing). Rhythmically tighten and relax this muscle. After repeating this several times, your anus should relax, and you can insert more of the toy. Toys can be introduced as part of foreplay, or while performing oral sex. +It's worth talking about positions for a few minutes. Doggy style is going to be the most natural and comfortable position. The downside to this position is that it makes emotional intimacy between partners a little difficult to achieve. Missionary position can solve that issue. You may need some pillows to adjust your height upwards. Another great position is with the man on top, straddling the woman. This position allows the man to control the penetration and provides both partners with access to the man's penis. You'll probably want to use multiple positions, for example, starting out with doggy position and then moving to man on top. +One of the funny things about male anal play is that the man can be receiving tremendous sexual pleasure from his ass, but lose his erection. If this happens to you, don't worry. It will usually come roaring back at the finish. One way you can help bring back the erection is by minimizing anal stimulation for a brief period and focusing on the penis. Leave the dildo inserted into the man, but sharply reduce or stop any stroking action. Now, gently stimulate the man's penis by squeezing and gently kneading it. Once the man achieves erection again, you can resume stroking the dildo in and out of him while stimulating the penis. If you get to this point, you can be assured that the end is going to come ripping along very soon! +Remember that unlike porn, in the real world, sex can be awkward sometimes. If you're as old as I am, the painful memories of how awkward the first few times you had sex are long faded. Be patient and have a sense of humor. Remember that with a little practice, the awkwardness will go away. +FINISHING UP +Male penetration can just be an outstanding experience for both partners. The first time I experienced it, I was amazed; I was practically glowing afterward. I not only felt sexually satisfied, but immensely pleased that my partner would be willing to overcome her reservations and do something so pleasurable for me. Between the efforts I made to make my wife feel adored, and the physical and emotional pleasure of anal sex, I can honestly say I've never been more satisfied with my sex life. +Remember, after your initial explorations to THANK your partner. If you're a guy, tell her how much it means to you that she was willing to do this for you. If you're a woman, tell him how much you value the trust he placed in you. Remember, all of us like to feel appreciated and the more appreciated your partner feels, the more they'll be interested in enjoying this unique experience with you again. +* + _I'd like to thank my editors LadyPineRose74 and ThinkerLover.

Personal view about anal sex.,"['Anal Lube', 'Anal Sex Advice', 'Anal Sex How-To', 'Condom', 'Personal View', 'Sex How-To']",3.66,"Well now in this part I will be telling you about me having anal sex with my two teachers about one of them I have already narrated in Part - 2. I was alone in the college and it was about mid afternoon once my teacher came to me and asked if I was free for some fun in the evening which I accepted as I was not doing any thing at that time. I forgot to tell you the name of my teacher his name is Mr. John. So in the evening I went to Mr. John's place and after some chitchat we started off with the sexual activities. +We both started kissing each other and in the mean while removed our dresses as well. Soon we both were in the bed kissing and fondling each other's parts specially cocks. Mr. John told me to lie down on the bed on my tummy so that he can kiss my back and butts, and I did the same. He started kissing my neck and then shifted his attention towards my butts and after kissing and lightly biting them he moved towards my anus, which I have shaved for the evening. He was excited to find my anus with out any hairs and that made him lick it with more zeal and zest. Soon after licking my anus for good about five minutes or so I felt as if some small bottle is been inserted in my asshole, Mr. John told so on inquiring it that he was oiling up my anus for a better fuck. +I was told by him to suck his dick that is about six and a half inches long and not much thick. I started licking and sucking his dick but I found that he was not ejaculating even after hard sucking of about ten minutes. I asked him the reason as it has never happened before and he replied that he has applied a lot of delay cream on his dick for better fucking of my ass for extra long time. +This made me shiver as I came to know that now I was in for a hard prolonged anal sex. After oiling up my anus Mr. John pushed his index finger in my anus and started to finger fuck me, soon he was having his two fingers in my anus. After finger fuck for few minutes he told me to get in to doggi style so that he can mount my ass from behind. I did the same, he rolled a condom over his dick and then he entered my anus with out slightest problem and after few slow strokes he was fucking my ass like he was ridding a horse. +Once he got tired in doggi style he placed himself on the bed on his back and told me to sit on his dick. I came right over his body and then placed my self on his erect dick +Now I was jumping up and down over his dick, he told me to face his feet and called this position as inverse cowboy. I rode his cock for some time and then he placed himself on the edge of the bed and told me to sit in his lap. Now I positioned my self in his lap with my legs either side of his body. And he held my body against his with one hand and with other started pumping my dick, which by now was semi, erect. Soon his pumping made me ejaculate and I ejaculated my sperms on his hand .He then moved his hand towards my face and told me to lick it clean which I did as I had no other option. +In the mean while we heard some knock at the door and person to enter was my other teacher, Mr. Martin. My fucker welcomed the new arrival and Mr. Martin with out any hesitation removed his cloths and came right up to me. His dick was very large and too much thick about ten inches long and 4 inches thick. He brought his dick right up to my face and told me to suck. I was not able to take the dick in my mouth as it was choking to take that much fat head in mouth. +He forcefully pushed his dick in my mouth and started fucking me in the face. In the mean while Mr. John was ready to cum .He told me to get up from his lap and after removing the condom pushed his dick in my mouth and started fucking my lips. Soon he unloaded his cum in my mouth .I had to drink each and every drop of his cum, which was bitter in taste. +My other teacher Mr. Martin laid me on the bed on my back and pulled my legs up. He folded my legs towards my chest and placed a pillow under my ass to support it. He tried to mount my ass but could not push his dick in my anus, as it was too big to go in. He applied more oil on it and then with a forceful jerk pushed head of his dick past my anal ring. I cried in pain as it felt that some baseball bat had gone in my ass. I pledged him to stop but he pushed almost his entire dick in my anus .It seemed that my anus would be torn apart. Mr. Martin started to move his dick slowly and just after few jerks came in my anus. +Now both teachers told me to suck their dicks and I was forced to do it and in return each one sucked my dick and licked my anus, which was fucked badly by both the studs. I ejaculated once again and then I was allowed to put my dress on and that's how this awful fuck finished. + _Rest of the story in part 4, till then bye have fun._ + +" +33,Anal Toys for Men,south_florida_bicur,How To,2004-03-27,2004-03-27,2022-01-04 08:25:51,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/anal-toys-for-men,How to buy an anal toy for a man.,"['Ass Time', 'Fingers Ass', 'Fuck Guy', 'Idea Talking', 'Life Pretty', 'Medium Size', 'Pretty Normal', 'Time Sex', 'Toy', 'Toy Ass']",4.09,"When I was growing up I always had a steady girlfriend and our sex life was pretty normal. There was the occasional anal sex but basically it was missionary position, her on top, doggie, and oral (me giving and me receiving). I would say that our sex life was pretty normal. After we broke up, sex with the next girlfriend/s was basically the same as the first one. +Then I met this one gal that was very open- minded. Her experience in sex was just like mine but she has a vivid imagination. She had fantasies and was expressed them openly. One of her fantasies was to fuck a guy. Me being so naïve, I had no idea what she was talking about. +I asked her, ""How are you going to fuck a guy if you are a gal?"" +She replied, ""I would strap on a plastic cock and fuck him with it!"" +I had no idea what she was talking about plus I have never had anything in my ass. The next time during sex she inserted 1 finger into my ass. It took some getting used to but I eventually did enjoy it. In due time she inserted another then another one until she had 3 fingers in my ass. Once I gotten used to 1 finger, 3 fingers were easy. She used to get so wet just inserting fingers into my ass. She told me she wanted to do more. Me being so naïve I had no idea what she was talking about. She again told me about her fantasy of fucking a guy. She then went to the fridge and took out a carrot. Of course my eyes popped out of my head and I asked her ""what do you think you are going to do with that?"" +She lubed it up and slowly inserted it into my ass. Of course it took a while but once I gotten used to it, it felt really good. She actually came just by inserting the carrot into my ass. +We did some research on the net to see what toys were better for the ass then others. The most popular toy was the butt plug. One day we were in the car and we passed a xxx store and she wanted to go in. I pulled over and we went in and she went directly towards the toys. She picked up a medium size butt plug and we bought it. That night and the next few sessions were amazing. I wouldn't say we used the toy or even did anything with my ass every time we had sex but it was a nice addition. Since then we have broken up but I still held onto the toy. +I wanted to pass a few suggestions to you guys if you are thinking about buying a toy for your ass or even your partner's ass. +1.Plug - Toy should have wings. What I mean is that we have all heard of the horror stories where people were rushed to the emergency room because they got something stuck up their ass. Well, wings prevent the toy from getting sucked up. Butt plugs basically come in two different shapes (smooth and rigid) but they do come in different sizes (sm, md, and lg) and also come in vibrating and non-vibrating. These toys are great if you do like to have a seat and not worry about it getting sucked in. +2\. Dong - A lot of guys think that using a dong means they are gay because basically a dong is a cock shaped toy. This is totally not the case. It just gives you a different feeling then a plug but it is just as good. The plug tapers in at the bottom before the wings so once it is inserted all the way, it stays there. A dong on the other hand is a molded cock. It has a head and a shaft so if you stand up, it just might slip out. The good thing is that most of them do have balls therefore the balls will prevent the toy getting sucked in. +3.Vibrator – the good about a vibrator is that it does what it says it does and that it vibrates. The bad thing is if left unintended it might get sucked up. I would recommend them but just be careful. +As for me, I will tell you a little something about my collection. I do have a medium size plug and a 6"" dong. Of the two I do like the plug the best because there are times I do like to keep the plug inside of me for more then just masturbating. I sometimes like the feel of being filled. +Does having a toy make me gay? Absolutely not! I am very hetero but I do have a curious side to me. I am single but I do have a girlfriend. You know how the dating scene goes. You might have a girlfriend today and tomorrow you are single again. My present girlfriend does not know about my curiosity and will not understand it but ex-girlfriends have known about it and was ok with it. I am very open minded and like I told one of my ex-girlfriends I will try anything once. I do not know if my thoughts will eventually become reality or they will remain as just fantasies but time will tell. +If anyone has any questions you can always email me." +34,Anal With a Woman: A Guide for Men,HombreAmigo,How To,2014-10-28,2014-10-28,2022-01-04 08:25:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/anal-with-a-woman-a-guide-for-men,Some hard won advice on this much loved subject.,"['Advice', 'Anal', 'Arse', 'Ass', 'Woman', 'Women']",4.03,"It not hard or mysterious, but the first time can be a bit daunting. I remember going through the forums and 'how to' when I was trying to cross this bridge, and now, ten years later, I thought I'd offer some hard won advice to other men. +Now, you could be in one of two positions; one, you have a partner who's willing to give it a go and are looking for the nuts and bolts of how to do it right. If that's you, you lucky devil, skip straight to the second section on getting it in there. Or two, you haven't quite got the 'ok'. If that's you, read on about popping the question. +The proposition +You can't just jam it in there; surprised don't end well, trust me. But equally, you're chances of getting a yes from a sit down, serious conversation aren't great. Your best chances are when she is highly aroused after some serious foreplay. This is for two reasons, one being that anyone who's aroused enough will do things they would otherwise never consider, the other being you're in a position to go through with it before she has a chance to change her mind. I stress the arousal - if you have to pull out half way through conventional sex, then do it. You want her to be very, very, hot under the bonnet. +Getting it in there +Let me start with some fails: +•Surprise anal - I say again, serious fail. You'll probably not only hurt her physically but you'll piss her off as well. And then you'll never get another chance. +•Not enough lube - this can happen even if you have the best intentions, so avoid the hot tub, shower, ocean or anything else that will wash away your lube. +•The wrong kind of lube - most oils and some water based lubricants can sting or irritate that very sensitive area. Play it safe and stick to unfragranced water based. +•Going too fast or hard - this one is too easy to do; you get lost in the moment... and then you break the moment. Self-control and take it slow. +•Forgetting the clit - women can enjoy anal sex, but most get more out of clitoral stimulation than anything else, so you have to keep exciting her clit the whole time. +So as the boys scouts say; ""be prepared"". For the perfect first time you will need a lot of water based lube and a good vibrator is a good idea. The lube goes all over your cock and all around her arse - don't be stingy. The best position is having her on top. This way she can lower herself onto you and control how fast it all goes. She is, after all, in control of her sphincter, and can better time slowly relaxing while accepting you inside her if she has control of the movement as well. You really don't need to do anything with respect to the cock in arse part of the exercise except hold your cock straight up so that you don't slip around. +What you do need to do is keep stimulating her clit. That's where a good vibrator is invaluable. Although you can obviously do it with your hand, as soon as your hand gets tired its game over. +Now hopefully she will slowly take you inside her. Once you're all the way in either she can start moving your cock slowly in and out or you can take over. Either way, go very slow at first and take very short thrusts. Never pull all the way out. That's a trick that you might be able to pull next time when she's comfortable with having you in there, but it's not for the first time. If you remember to keep stimulating her clit you'll both be in for a good chance of cumming. Outsourcing the vibrator to her once you get going is a good ideas as she won't forget to use it and you'll have your hands free to play. +Getting it again +There are just two things here: If she liked it and doesn't feel bad about it afterwards, she'll be up for it again. That means you have to make her cum if she's able to. Even if you cum first, you need to keep going with the clitoral stimulation until she climaxes. +During you have to be respectful and afterwards you have to be nice to her. There is a lot of social stigma about anal - she probably won't run home and tell her mum all about it - so don't add to it. It's up to you to make sure it's not degrading and that she doesn't feel bad about it afterwards, if nothing else because if she does, you ain't goanna get another chance. +Hygiene +So this unsavoury section is worth adding. Anything that touches her arse, or touches something that has touched her arse, obviously doesn't touch her vagina. So that means never, ever, pull out of her arse and go back to her pussy, and if you slip out and hit the wrong hole, she will need to clean herself very well. I once read of a famous porn star, whose name escapes me, who became infertile after an infection through doing just that trick for the cameras, so it does really matter. +Also, needless to say, there are sexually transmitted diseases. Anal without a condom is probably the best way to get one short of sharing needles before prostituting yourself. It's also a good way to get yourself a urinary tract infection. And that's hard to explain to your doc unless you know them very well, as men don't usually get UTIs. So, seriously, I'd consider wearing a condom, even if I wouldn't for vaginal sex. It also means if it all goes pear shaped you can take it off and, all is not lost, have vaginal sex. +So there it is.

The truth is that the anus is one of the most significant erogenous zones of the body. You can talk about sucking on nipples or earlobes or clits or penises but none of them have the eroticism of the asshole. It's the ""dirty"" place that seems so popular at the moment. Sure, the anus is the receptacle for intercourse for gay men. Nothing I've read or heard says that gay men aren't having a good time. They suck each other dicks just like hetero women suck their men's dicks. The good feelings are the same for the recipient of oral sex, whether it's a man or a woman doing the sucking. Yea, I know what the people in the red states say. Who the fuck cares!! Feeling good is all about feeling good. +No scientific study has determined that a gay man's anus is any more or less a suitable receptacle for anal stimulation and anal sex than a straight man's anus or, for that matter a woman's anus. Therefore an anus is an anus. All anuses are rich with nerve endings that, when properly stimulated, offer their owners incredible feelings. The ability and willingness to accept anal play is a mind thing. As a man, if I allow my anus to be part of sexual activity, then it means I'm gay. If I'm a woman and I allow my rectum to be licked or penetrated then I am a dirty whore. There we go with the ""Red State Philosophy"". There's no sodomy of any kind in the red states. Ask Pat Robertson or Sean Hannity. +As a 60 year old heterosexual male, I find the anus a very important part of my sex life. I have always been turned on by the description of anal sex in the written word and the depiction of anal sex in pornographic movies. As the arbiter of what's good in pornography in my house, I have always selected movies that include lots of anal sex. (I like almost anything directed by John Leslie.) Porno is usually part of our foreplay. +If you and your S/O like porn, then make sure that everything you watch has some anal in it. Porn can be so educational. And it should be gentle anal sex, not some guy who is hung like a horse jamming his dick into some girl's ass as she grimaces in pain. Good anal sex is done with respect and kindness. Anal sex is something that has to be cultivated, beginning with the understanding of what can cause pain or discomfort and what can create pleasure. In order to get to the point where your penis is all the way in your partner's ass and she is begging you to fuck her, which means she wants to heighten the feelings she's having by you pulling your dick almost all the way out until her sphincter is grabbing the head of your cock and then you push it all the way in, repeating this action until she's had an orgasm and you're ready to dump your load in her, takes a long time for most women. You have to crawl before you can walk and you have to walk before you can run. +Never force yourself on your S/O. Anal play is done best by prior agreement. Sometimes that agreement is implied. For example, you are sucking on her clit, with a finger or two inside her pussy. Maybe you let your fingers do the walking towards her anus. Now she could give you a no with a little negative ""Uh-Uh!"" or she might open her legs a little more to give you better access. I know how it works because it's happened to me. Most of the time I get a ""Come On In!"" but sometimes, for whatever reason, she's not interested. When I get the OK, it's generally fingers first and then her legs open as wide as they can, which is an invitation to full-on anal fucking. +If you want anal play from her and she's reluctant, then you might want to include some kind of toy in your playtime and show her what you want. Remember, your hands are very important, especially your fingers. Keeps your hands as soft as possible. If you want to insert a finger or two or three into her anus, make sure your nails have no sharp edges. A sharp nail can feel like a pinprick and can do harm to the fragile tissue inside her rectum. Likewise, if you want her to finger your rectum, she'd better not have long fingernails. You might be looking at a hospital visit if you are penetrated by some of the nails I've seen. Saliva is a fine lube for finger play but toys and cocks definitely require a good personal lubricant and, as everybody says, too much is not enough. +I could go on and on but enough said. If you want your prick up her ass, you would do well to show her that what feels good to the goose feels just as good to the gander." +36,Anatomy of a Hand Job,Many Feathers,How To,2006-04-30,2006-04-30,2022-01-04 08:25:54,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/anatomy-of-a-hand-job,Basic suggestions on giving your partner a helping hand.,"['Handjob', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",4.06,"I actually got the idea for this piece after having seen several porn videos depicting women giving men 'hand-jobs'. It dawned on me when watching them, that there was very little going on except for the old 'up and down' stroke technique. And I couldn't help but wonder, ""Where the hell's all the creativity and fun in that?"" +Maybe I'm not speaking for ALL guys here, but I have to think there's more than a few here who will agree with me. Sure...'arriving' is nice, but getting there is half the fun. +So, I decided to spend a few moments from a personal perspective in hopes that those who are interested, and who seriously enjoy masturbation with their partners, might perhaps learn something, or at the very least, incorporate a little creativity into what can be a very pleasurable and exciting experience. +I think that most women would agree, there's nothing worse or less stimulating than (in the long run) having your clit rubbed...and rubbed...and rubbed repeatedly over and over again in the same way. Men are really no different here. And like a woman's clitoris, (again for me at least) the head of my dick is where most of the really intense sensitivity comes from. But constant stimulus of that particular area only can also deaden the feeling and lessen the overall pleasure. What enhances that pleasure is a periodic change in technique, touch, pressure and placement of the hands or fingers on a man's prick. +Aside from the obvious, and the good old 'up and down' which will in time produce the inevitable ejaculation, it truly is about the build up and excitement in getting there. Part of that for me, is that naughty playfulness, that uninhibited exploratory caressing and fondling that should be pursued in a myriad of differing ways. And again, I don't think I'm alone in saying this, men enjoy having their dicks played with. (Not that women don't enjoy being played with as well) but lets face it, ever since we find this handy little apparatus dangling between our legs, we're drawn to it, touching it, discovering it, and in time, learning a lot of what about it feels particularly good. And thus...we as men generally masturbate a lot! But...no matter how many times I do it, it ALWAYS, ALWAYS, feels better when my partner does it for me...especially if it's not from start to finish, the old up and down as it where. +Girls? Or even Guys...get playful, trust me, most men will not only enjoy your playfulness, even silliness when stroking our cocks, chances are, we'll reciprocate in much the same way for you as well. +The key first of all...is plenty of lubrication. I think that goes without saying. Whether naturally produced by periodically stopping to continue squeezing out more and more precum as it's produced through natural (slow) teasing play...or periodically including some other natural lubrication such as KY, baby oil, or even something a bit more on the kinky side (I'll leave that up to your own imagination), but whatever works. +After that, it's all about giving, pleasuring, and taking control. (This should work both ways here by the way). Part of this particular act is about selfish enjoyment. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that, though like anything, it should never be taken for granted nor accepted without a desire of reciprocation in whatever form that may take. +But now...on to the dynamics of a really nice, fun and erotic 'hand-job'. +For myself? And I dare say I am indeed speaking for a great many men out there too, there's a LOT you can do to a man's prick to make it feel good and pleasure him. In that initial getting acquainted playful stage, I enjoy the sensation of the placement of two hands upon my shaft, each softly twisting in opposite directions. Included perhaps as a minor variation, the inclusion of some soft-slow up and down stroking here as well. But nothing hurried mind you, in fact...the slower the better. A minute or two at the most of this, then some more (brief) direct stimulation and caressing of just the head itself. +Once again, this is for me (and most men) where all the true real sensitivity really exists. Ensuring the tip at the very least is well lubricated, just a nice 'ovaled' stroking of the hand by pressing the thumb and index finger together over the head, then slow-stroking just below the crest of the ""helmet"" as its often called can be very...very stimulating and arousing. But once again, just for a minute or two, perhaps even less. Here you can go back to a variation of the 'up and down' by palming the entire shaft in a twisting, up and over the top maneuver, releasing it entirely, then re-grasping the shaft at the base and once again working your way up. (Experiment! There's no right and wrong way to really do this, left or right handed, either one. Even if it feels awkward or goofy...chances are, we're smiling!) +Another fun technique to try or do...making sure you have 'plenty' of lubrication to work with on this one, is what I call ""fire starter"". I am sure most of you have seen the old ancient way to try and start a fire by rubbing a stick as fast as you can between the palms of your hands until the base of it begins to heat up with friction causing the small thatch of kindling below to begin to smoke? Well...a 'slower' variation of this, up and down, back and forth palm stroke can be equally as fun and pleasurable to attempt dependant upon your partner's enjoyment of course. And there again is another key, communication, open frank discussion and verbalization of what's going on. Ask...and guys? Don't be afraid to tell her what you'd like her to do either. Faster? Slower? Harder? Softer? She's not a mind reader...tell her what feels good (what you enjoy doing to yourself). Or even...show her! Then let her try it! +Another thing that can feel really good, IF you're aroused and stimulated enough, is actually slapping his cock. It is and certainly can be, one of those pleasure almost pain things that can indeed feel good if one is sufficiently aroused enough. This one is best to have your partner show you first.Obviously, I wouldn't expect to have someone just haul off and slap my dick with the full-force of their hand...""ouch!"" But...you 'can' slap it just hard enough, repeatedly, back and forth like playing ping-pong with it, that it can feel damn nice. I know watching my lover 'spank'-'slap' her pussy...and then having me do it for her is quite enjoyable, wickedly arousing...and just this naughty side of kink. And who doesn't enjoy that really lusty, horny, decadent sensation when we're in the throes of real honest passion? +But the point of all this...is have fun. Get creative, and don't be afraid to experiment with all sorts of touches, strokes, and various hand placements and manipulations. It's ALL good! +Sure...the eventual climax is always nice, but if time is taken, if the arousal in getting there is performed in more than just the old up and down cock stroking, I can assure you, the climax, the intensity, and even the volume of ejaculation produced can be significantly greater than otherwise achieved. +I hope this has been informative, and though I've tried to keep this light- hearted and simple, the reality is...don't become a porn video when masturbating your partner. There really isn't anything arousing in that. Well...not after watching the first one anyway." +37,Are There Downsides to Cuckolding?,PolySwingerWife,How To,2021-06-12,2021-06-12,2022-01-04 08:25:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/are-there-downsides-to-cuckolding,This is why many (cuckold) marriages fail.,"['Communication', 'Cuckold', 'Husband', 'Marriage', 'Relationship', 'Wife']",4.09,"Just like anything else, there are going to be upsides and downsides, positives and negatives. Cuckolding is no exception. But you can't give credit or blame to cuckolding. It is those involved that are to blame or be given credit. +Cuckolding is rarely the reason that marriages end. It is often a combination of things, jealousy, not enough communication, a lack of honesty, a lack of trust, or the couple wasn't mature enough to handle all that cuckolding involves. +For a cuckold marriage to be successful, the couple has to be totally honest with themselves and each other. There has to be planning and cooperation. There must be trust. And the marriage has to be strong. Cuckolding can't and will not fix a bad marriage. +The most important thing to remember about cuckolding is that it's something that a couple does together, and it's special to both of them. And each partner has to be extremely open about their wants and needs. If the couple isn't completely open with and to each other, then cuckolding will never work for them. +Cuckolding, like marriage, is not something that a couple should rush into. Cuckolding, also like marriage, is a commitment. And with cuckolding, as with marriage, the primary relationship must be the most important thing. +For a cuckold marriage to be successful, the husband and wife have to be in love with each other. They have to want the best for one another, and each partner's happiness must be a paramount concern. This is why constant communication is extremely important +Rules can be made and boundaries can be set, but these can change over time. This is why communication must be constant. You don't begin a cuckold relationship and hope it goes well. It takes a lot of work. +One of the biggest reasons that cuckold marriages fail is because the couple didn't understand what cuckolding was and what is involved. The Internet is full of advice for cuckold couples from people who have never been into cuckolding or lived it. And the worst advice often comes from those who allowed their emotions or preconceived ideas to ruin what could have been a wonderful experience for all involved. +Before I go much further, I want to talk about cuckolding itself, what it is, what it entails, why to get into it, and why not to get into it. +Cuckolding IS NOT a way to save your marriage. Cuckolding is designed to enhance a marriage, to bring a couple closer to each other, to help bond a couple to each other. Cuckolding IS a shared experience. +Cuckolding IS NOT a husband jacking off while another man or other men fuck his wife. Cuckolding IS something a couple does together, to excite one another, to please one another. +Cuckolding IS NOT a female-led relationship. Cuckolding IS a couple-centered relationship. +Cuckolding IS NOT always sunshine and rainbows. Cuckolding IS something that will bring about the best and the worst experiences, emotions, and reactions. +Cuckolding can be the best thing you ever did as a couple, but it can also be the worst thing you ever did as a couple. +Some people warn that cuckolding is too risky, that it can destroy a marriage. Some people also warn that a wife may fall in love with another man, or the wife may fall out of love with her husband, or the husband may fall out of love with his wife. These are incorrect assumptions. Successful cuckold marriages are successful because the husband and wife truly love each other. +When a couple truly loves each other, the risk of one or the other falling out of love is null. If you truly love someone, you can't just fall out of love with them. If you love someone, it is unconditional. That's what love is. +When a cuckold marriage fails, it isn't because the wife had sex with other men. It's because the couple failed to communicate to each other their thoughts and feelings consistently. +A couple that can't be totally honest with each other should never get into cuckolding. +Cuckolding requires each partner to be totally open and honest about their wants, needs, feelings, and regrets. +Cuckolding IS a lifestyle. Cuckolding IS NOT a fetish. +Couples that get involved in cuckolding become cuckold couples, and the couple part is the most important part. Cuckolding may involve another man or other men, but it's the couple that is the most important part of the cuckold relationship. +Lovers cum and go. But it's the couple that remains afterward. The excitement and the build-up beforehand culminate and the couple is left with whatever outcome there may be after the lover is gone. This is often where the trouble begins for some couples. +Sometimes one or both partners may feel guilty about what has happened or what they have done. Other times, there are feelings that one or both partners experience that has to be talked out. Failing to talk these feelings out is often the reason that many cuckold marriages fail. +If a wife enjoys a lover more than her husband expected that she would, this may cause the husband to feel resentful. And if a wife were to secretly get with a lover, the husband may feel betrayed. Cuckolding, as I have already said, is all about openness, honesty, and trust. Without these things, a cuckold marriage is destined to fail. +All things being considered, cuckolding can be a wonderful experience for all involved. Yet, it can be heart-wrenching. If the cuckolding is not done in the presence of the husband, his mind can go to places he doesn't need or want it to go. This is why cuckolding should always involve the husband, before, during, and afterward. +Let's say that a wife gets into cuckolding to please her husband. This is never a good idea. She must get into cuckolding for the both of them, for her and her husband. If the wife is into cuckolding just to please herself, the marriage won't last. If the wife gets into cuckolding only to please her husband, the marriage will more than likely end in tatters. +Where many couples run into trouble is when the wife prefers sex with others to sex with her husband. In cuckolding, the sex the wife has with other men is supposed to enhance the sex she has with her husband. When sex with her husband is entirely replaced by a lover or lovers, then it is no longer a cuckold marriage. It's a wife choosing to put her wants above the needs of both her and her husband. +Where cuckolding becomes a fetish is when the husband or wife prefers the lovers to always have a bigger cock and be better in bed than the husband is. It's not always a bad thing when a lover is bigger cocked or better in bed than the husband is, but if this becomes an issue for either the husband or wife, then you have a problem. +I will agree that many cuckold husbands do prefer that their wives get from other men what they can't give her, be it a bigger cock, lasting longer, cumming more or more often. Yet, this is something that both the husband and the wife have to agree on, and the lover should never become more important to the husband or wife than their marriage is. +As a cuckold couple, the husband and wife need to agree on how often the wife will have sex with other men, how many men will be involved, if condoms will be required, and how far a relationship with a lover can and should go. +A cuckold marriage is simply a marriage in which the wife has sex with other men with her husband's encouragement and consent and the husband remains faithful to her. If the couple decides to fetishize their cuckold marriage, they can decide to involve humiliation, a cock cage, sexual denial of the husband, but this is not cuckolding. It's adding fetish to the cuckolding. +What must be remembered, though, is that involving humiliation, a cock cage, or sexual denial of the husband isn't always a fetish. It could be considered a fetishistic attribute of the couple's cuckold lifestyle, and as long as it is a form of play, then it can work. Where it goes wrong is when humiliation is not wanted by the husband and he has to endure humiliation. This will end a marriage quickly. +Many people falsely believe that a cuckold marriage is a female-led marriage. Nothing could be further from the truth. A cuckold marriage can only be successful if both the husband and the wife share control. If complete control is given to the husband or the wife, or a lover, the marriage will not last. +In a successful cuckold marriage, the husband and the wife both have veto power. A successful cuckold marriage is one in which the couple decides who the wife will have sex with and how often she will have sex with other men together. +When the wife in a cuckold marriage is the only one that makes all the decisions, the husband is left out. When the husband makes all the decisions, the wife is left out. In a successful cuckold marriage, neither the husband nor the wife is ever left out. +Although there are couples, cuckold and non-cuckold, where the wife makes all of the decisions for the couple, this is never a good idea. Most wives like and want their husband's input. And most husbands want to have a say in what goes on in their marriage. +Cuckolding is not where the wife does what she wants, no matter what her husband thinks or feels. Cuckolding is a lifestyle in which the wife and the husband both find happiness in the wife having a lover or lovers, and by the wife having a lover or lovers, the marriage is strengthened and enhanced. +Cuckolding is supposed to make a marriage more fun, more loving, and more exciting. It's not supposed to make anyone feel lesser than or humiliate anyone. +I want to state again that cuckolding is never the reason that a marriage falls apart, but, rather, it's a husband's or wife's reaction to something that occurred within that cuckold marriage that causes a cuckold marriage to fail. +If a wife feels that her husband wants her to have sex with other men so that he doesn't have to, this can be a problem. If a husband feels that his wife is trying to replace him, this will also be a problem. And a downside of cuckolding is often that a husband or wife may fear that they have no choice in the matter. +A cuckold is not a lesser man or a submissive man. This can be how many cuckold couples play in their cuckolding with other men, but rarely is the cuckold male entirely submissive outside of the act of cuckolding. +A wife needs to be able to respect her husband. If she can't respect him, then there is an issue that must be dealt with before she can cuckold him. Cuckolding is fun. It's something a couple does to make each other happy. If there is no respect for one another, then it is not a relationship at all. +Cuckold marriages are as varied as those involved in them. Some couples may involve humiliation or bi play. Others may involve sissification or female domination, but these things are usually part of the couple's play experience. When a lover or lovers are not involved, cuckold couples live lives just like everyone else. They have bills, appointments, jobs, and children to deal with. Cuckolding is their playtime, a time when they can be adults and make each other happy, sexually. +When a husband or wife minimizes their partner's feelings, this is when the marriage begins to break down. This is in any marriage, not only cuckold marriages. +If you are a couple who can talk openly to each other about your sexual fantasies, desires, wants, and needs, a cuckold marriage may be right for you. But, if you can't openly talk about your sexual fantasies, desires, wants, and needs, your marriage may not last, no matter what you do. +I could go on for days telling you the benefits of cuckolding, but today I want to address the downside of cuckolding. +One of the biggest downsides of cuckolding is that it can be more than a cuckold can handle. Fantasy is one thing, but the reality is another. A man may fantasize about his wife having sex with other men, but when it happens, he becomes overwhelmed and finds that the reality of the situation was more than he expected. The same can also happen with the wife. +Seeing something happen on your phone, computer, or TV screen is one thing, but experiencing it yourself is another. The first time a wife cuckolds her husband is usually the toughest. The wife and the husband have talked everything out, they've set boundaries and made rules. Everything goes as planned, but the couple wasn't prepared for the emotions that would spring up when the other man entered the wife. +When emotions kick in, this is when trouble often begins. If the couple is not in-tuned and wanting the experience to happen, it's not going to be good. This is why a wife should never get into cuckolding just to please her husband, and a husband should never allow himself to be cuckolded just to please his wife. +Sex without some kind of emotion doesn't exist. There are always going to be some kind of emotions. How you handle those emotions is what matters. +For some cuckolded men and some wives, the reality of the situation can be more than they can handle. +Imagine you're the wife. You've not had sex with strangers. You love your husband. He's your superman, he's your everything. You want to make him happy. So, you decide to go ahead and allow another man to have sex with you. Then, you are naked with another man. His cock is hard and in your face, and your husband is smiling from ear to ear. You don't love this other man, and possibly don't even know his name, and you are expected to suck this other man's cock, because it will turn your husband on. +You were only doing this to make your husband happy. Now it's actually happening. Now you feel obligated to suck this other man's cock and let him fuck you. You suck this other man's cock, even though you don't want to. You don't enjoy feeling obligated to suck another man's cock, but you do it because you want to make your husband happy. The problem is that you're not happy doing it. +You prefer to be treated like a lady, but this stranger is treating you as if you were his whore. You feel cheap and used, and sadly, you're husband seems to like seeing you treated this way. +You're happy when the other man tells you to lie back because you no longer have to suck his cock. Then he enters you. You prefer a lot of foreplay, but that didn't happen. +This other man puts his cock in you and he seems to think he has to slam it as deep in you as he can. And it's not entirely pleasurable for you, but your husband seems to like seeing it happen because he's masturbating and smiling and cheering the other man on. Then, this other man cums inside of you. Yet, that wasn't bad enough. When the other man pulls his cock out of you, your husband gets between your legs and starts slurping out the other man's cum. +You and your husband hadn't talked about him licking up and eating another man's cum from your pussy. Now you're questioning your husband's sexuality and your whole marriage. You know that your husband could tell that you didn't really want to suck this other man's cock, and you weren't enjoying the sex you were having with this other man, but your husband either didn't notice or didn't care what you were feeling or experiencing. The only thing that seemed to matter was that your husband was turned on. +Now, you're questioning your husband's sexuality. Your husband has allowed another man to invade the most sacred part of your body. You felt forced to have sex with this other man, and now you resent your husband. This is not cuckolding. You may have consented, but you weren't all in. +Your husband liked what happened a lot more than you did. This was not a shared experience because your husband got a lot more out of it than you did. And the resentment you feel has a lot more to do with your husband than it does with the man who just fucked you. +The other man leaves, and you are left with your husband, the man who didn't stop what was happening when he saw that you didn't like what was happening, the man who was so excited to get between your legs and lick another man's cum out of you. You don't know if your husband has always been secretly gay, but you do know that he didn't protect you. You're not sure how you feel about your husband. He allowed another man to treat you like some kind of street slut. Now you're not sure if you can trust your husband. And without trust, what do you have? +Let's turn the tables. +Your wife agrees to have sex with another man. She's as excited as you are at the thought of having sex with another man. When the other man arrives, he's as good-looking as he was in his picture. You and your wife talked with this other man on the phone several times. You and your wife have agreed on a safe word, in case she or you want things to stop. The other man is a gentleman. He's nicely dressed and freshly showered. Your wife kisses this other man and things seem to be going well. +The other man undresses your wife and she helps him undress. They kiss some more. Things are still going well. Your wife seems happy, the other guy seems to be happy, and you're enjoying what you're seeing. You realize that the other guy's cock is a lot bigger than you thought it was, and your wife seems to be overjoyed that this other man has what he has. Your wife spends a considerable amount of time sucking this other man's cock, a lot more time than she usually does when she sucks your cock. You deal with it because he's new and she seems to like what she can do for him. +You're impressed that this other guy can stay hard for so long. And this other man and your wife get into positions that you and your wife never have. And she sucks him again and again. Things are still going well. You're a bit envious of this other guy, but you attribute everything to him being new and the experience being new for you and your wife. The kissing didn't bother you. Her sucking him didn't bother you that much, but when he pulled out, got on his knees, and came in your wife's mouth, and she swallowed his cum, that was when a line was crossed. +Your wife never let you cum in her mouth. And now she's let another man cum in her mouth, and she swallowed! What the hell? This wasn't something you and your wife talked about or predicted. And now that it's happened, you're pissed. Why would she let another man cum in her mouth, and swallow, when she would never do that for you? Now you're wondering what else she's done that you don't know about. +You feel betrayed. What happened can't be undone. And it happened so fast that you didn't have time to do anything about it. When the other man leaves, you are left with a woman that you love that has betrayed you. Now you see her as a slut. And you don't want anything more to do with her. +The above examples are not of cuckolding gone wrong. They are examples of couples who didn't fully communicate, who let their feelings get the best of them, and in each situation, some things happened that weren't discussed before the other man had sex with the wife. What happened with each of these couples was not a bad sexual experience. It was a bad marital experience. +The situations above are a perfect example of why, long before another man is invited to have sex with the wife, that the couple must think of all the variables. They must discuss the times when things might happen that they didn't predict or expect to happen. +In the first situation, the wife didn't verbally communicate her discomfort to her husband. And the husband wasn't aware of and didn't notice, that his wife wasn't having a good time. In this situation, both the husband and the wife failed each other and themselves. There was a total lack of communication which led to negative feelings and questions that should have been answered long before another man was involved. +In the second situation, the husband was okay with everything until the other man came into his wife's mouth, and she swallowed. Maybe it was the other man cumming in his wife's mouth that upset him, but, then, maybe it pissed the husband off because his wife swallowed the other man's cum, when she had never swallowed his. This was a one-time experience, one that could have been talked out, but the husband let his emotions take over and the marriage would be stressed going forward. +Again, there was a lack of communication. None of the negative experiences had to do with the cuckolding, it had to do with a lack of communication. In both cases, emotions took over. +Anytime another man, or other men, are invited into the marital bed, emotions will arise. There's no way of getting around that. And that is a downside of cuckolding. It forces us to experience emotions we may not be prepared to handle. +Another downside of cuckolding is that it forces us to communicate. And if you are not good at communicating, then cuckolding will not only not work, it's going to be a struggle while you try to make it work. +Another big downside of cuckolding is the ""other men"". The other men are going to be as unique as you and your spouse are. And they are going to have unique personalities. Some of the other men are going to be open to the couple's wants and suggestions, and others will want to control everything. When you involve a third, or fourth or fifth, person in your marital bed, you're going to have different personalities, expectations, wants, needs, and desires. And you have to expect this. +Some other men may say, ""I completely respect the marriage of the couple I am with. But, that does not make me the slave of the husband. If the husband wants a guy that he can boss around and tell how to fuck his wife, and that is what the wife wants too, I'm out of there. They want a different guy, which is fine. +When we talk ahead of time, I am clear that I am there, first and foremost, for the pleasure of the wife. This is my avocation, giving women pleasure, and I have done this for wives for years. I am there to give them both something that they should want, her wild sexual satisfaction. +Most times, for her to get that, she has to not worry about the husband, his feelings of being left out, his physical pleasure, while we are having sex... at least at first, while we bond physically. He can watch, be naked, jerk, get close, and look, but only after we are all comfortable and the wife has really swung into her full orgasms do we open things up for the hub to be more active. +Some women need for the husband to start outside the room for a while before we let him in. Years of experience with dozens of couples have proved that this is the best way for me to work. Other men who do what I do may be different. +I am completely respectful of the husband. I don't need to make him feel humiliated (although those feelings are part of the experience for some men). When we are all easy, I am happy for the hub to suck me clean, lick the wife, serve us to make things even hotter. The wife often likes to see her husband suck me, as well. As long as she is getting the pleasure that she needs from me, and then if he is happy too, I'm doing my job. And it is some of the best sex that I ever have."" +The above statement is not an uncommon one. Many ""other men"" feel that they should be in control and the husband should be relegated to being just a bystander. This type of situation puts the wife and the husband in a bad place. The wife must defend the husband, or the husband must defend himself. And in this situation, both the husband and the wife want the sexual experience to be good, but now they have to decide how they should act and if they are willing to allow another person, who is just there to fuck the wife and leave, to control them and their playtime with each other. +Being the third for a couple can be tough for the ""other men,"" too. Most of them know that they are nothing more than a living-breathing dildo. Other ""other men"" feel that because they have a big cock and can fuck for a long time and can cum multiple times that it makes them more valuable to the wife than her husband is to her. Either way, this can become problematic. +Both the husband and the wife may want the wife to have sex with a man who has a bigger cock, a lot of stamina, and can cum multiple times, but they are not looking for a man to replace the husband, sexually or otherwise. They are simply looking for a man who has a bigger cock, who can fuck for a long time and can cum multiple times-and then leave. +The problem for a lot of couples is that they want a man that has a bigger cock, has a lot of sexual experience and can perform on-demand. Where this is a problem is in that a lot of cuckold couples are looking for the same thing. And if a man has a big cock, is very sexually active with a lot of women or couples, and can perform on-demand, he is a wanted man. Many couples look for such a man, but many wives fear that if this ""other man"" has sex so often, he may not be clean. They have no idea who this ""other man"" has been with and if he even cared. +Another problem is that if a couple prefers the wife to be with different men each time, they more often just have to trust that the ""other man"" is clean and DD-free. Some couples will take the time to make sure they and the ""other man"" are tested, but this is not always the case. +Then you have the possibility that the wife may develop romantic feelings for a man that she has had sex with on multiple occasions. Or, possibly, that the husband may develop feelings for this ""other man."" What then? +I, as many writers do, may point out the benefits of cuckolding more often than the downsides, but the reason for this is because most of the downsides connected with cuckolding have nothing to do with cuckolding. It has more to do with the couple themselves, their trust level and ability to communicate, and their ability to compromise." +38,Are They Cheating?,neruda,How To,2016-04-06,2016-04-06,2022-01-04 08:25:56,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/are-they-cheating,How to tell if your partner is cheating on you.,"['Affair', 'Cheating', 'Church', 'Coworker', 'Husband', 'Partner', 'Phone', 'Secret', 'Wife']",4.49,"How to Tell if Your Spouse is Having an Affair? +For the last 15 years I have worked as a corporate security consultant. It's an alternately exciting and terribly boring job. Most of my stories that I've written for this site have stemmed from my experiences at work and those same experiences have taught me a lot about human behavior and weakness. Because so many people on the Literotica site and forum know me for the work I do through my stories, I get asked for advice a lot. The most common question I get asked is ""How can I tell if my husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend is cheating on me?"" +Even though my firm handles corporate security, we also work with individuals, and like most firms this size, we have private investigators both on staff and on retainer. Many of the executives of our corporate clients reach out to us when their personal lives go up in smoke, so it pays to be ready for those eventualities as well. +This has given me a lot of experience dealing with this particular issue and I can tell you some of the patterns that seem to come up over and over, as well as some of the steps you can take to get to the truth. However, it's important to note that short of catching them in the act, there are few ways to know for sure. +Actually, that's exactly what happened to me when I was younger. I was in a long term relationship with a woman, a woman I planned to marry, and I caught her in bed with another man. In retrospect, all the signs were there, I just didn't see them. To be more specific I didn't want to. +So what do I do first? + 1. You first have to ask yourself why you are suspicious in the first place. Are you normally a trusting and open person, or do you tend to be suspicious about others, and especially your partners? If you find that you are the suspicious type, maybe your alarm was tripped for no reason and a little quality time together will set things right again. If not, then there is likely some event or issue that got your attention. Do you know what it is? +You may not. It's been my experience that a lot of people don't know, they just have this vague and creeping feeling that something is wrong and that their partner is cheating on them. Don't discount that. We all have two minds, a conscious one and an unconscious one. Many times our unconscious mind picks up on things that our conscious mind can't. Maybe it's a look, or a casual touch or the inflection in someone's voice. Do you find yourself thinking about a particular event over and over, you can't get it out of your mind, even though it seems innocuous? Your sleeping mind is telling you something. + 1. Be careful not to confront your partner too early. A lot of people make this mistake. They ask their spouse too directly if there is something they need to be worried about, or they ask too many questions about where they have been and what they were doing. You can be sure that if you do this, they will start covering their tracks like a pro, and any chance you had of catching them is going to be long gone. +So what are the signs? +Changes in behavior are really the most important signs to look for. In fact, almost all of what I can tell you to look for, in some way comes down to a behavior change. Are they spending money differently? Are they acting more distant? Etc... however there are some really specific ones to look for. + 1. Changes in how they make and break plans: Many people that find out that their spouse is cheating report that they have noticed that the person has started breaking plans at the last minute. Are you about to leave for a party or a trip and they suddenly feel badly and can't go, but you should still go? You two were going to have a nice dinner out, and at the last minute they call it off because they aren't interested in going out? +These changes can be a result of them either trying to find time to be with their other intimate partner, or it could be an attempt to avoid intimacy with you. Both are important and mean different things. +Another important sign is failure to make long term plans. For instance, are you the kind of couple to make vacation plans a year in advance, yet for some reason your partner just can't seem to commit this year, and its only six months out? Have you two been talking about buying a new house, or having a child, and suddenly they don't seem as interested anymore? +Failure to make long term plans can mean that they are unsure that they will be with you in the long run, or that they are sure they won't. + 1. Changes in work patterns: This is another really common one, and probably the one that most people know to look for. Are they staying late at work a lot? Sure that's a bad sign. Do they have to make a lot of trips out of town, one or two nights in a row, often with little or no warning? Yep, that's another one. Most jobs give you notice ahead of time when they want you to travel. Sure there are exceptions, but remember that we are looking for changes, something that is different now than it was before. +Another strange one that a lot of people overlook are demotions at work. I've seen this one come up a couple of times. The partner in question is suddenly spending more money on the affair than they can account for, so they make up a reason for a salary reduction. I happen to find that one particularly shitty. + 1. Changes in how they deal with money: Many times when someone is cheating they're spending so much money on the affair, that they change how they're spending money in the primary relationship. One way it changes is that they suddenly become very concerned about every dollar that is spent. Too many ""we can't afford that""s when before they were more liberal or generous with their spending. This is usually at a point where the spending in the affair has got them worried and they feel they have to tighten their belts elsewhere to make up for it. Unfortunately this is usually after the affair has been going on for a while. +Another change could be that they are suddenly more liberal with their spending. They get used to spending more and forget to hide it in other parts of their life. This usually happens more toward the beginning of the affair. +A final sign is that they are running out of money and seem constantly surprised by it. ""Wow, I'm sure I had more money on this card."" This is a sign of someone that has compartmentalized the affair so well that they are not seeing the spending in one part of their life as related to spending in another. + 1. Changes in sexual intimacy: Do they want sex a lot more or a lot less than they did before? Most people can see why someone would be less interested in sex during an affair, but have trouble seeing why they would want more. It's just like anything else, the more of something pleasurable you get, the more you want it. Have you ever been full, looked at a cake and said ""well, just one piece"". Two hours later the whole cake is gone? Well it's kind of the same thing. The more you have something the more you want it. +The alternate is that if your spouse is used to having sex three times a week and suddenly goes to zero, and has no interest in getting back into the swing of it, they may be getting their cake elsewhere. +Another sign is that they are suddenly interested in different sexual activities that they never have been before. Maybe they seemed to learn a new technique or trick out of the blue. Again, you have to ask yourself where the change is? Are they the adventurous sort that may have looked up fun and exciting things to do with you in bed, or are they a traditionalist? +Again, something that I have heard people tell me over and over is that when their spouse suggested something new in bed they said ""I know you'll like it!"" How do they know? Well it could be that they have already tried it with someone else, and the other person liked it. + 1. Changes in how the two of you relate: This is a hard one to describe. Only two people in the whole world really know how you and your partner relate to one another, and that's the two of you. If something seems different or off about your relationship, or how you communicate, then it's a warning sign. Do they seem distant? Do they seem overly concerned about your moods, like they are waiting for you to be mad? Subconsciously they may realize that you should be mad at them but aren't. Do they pick fights for no reason? + 1. Changes in the way they talk about someone you both know: This is an important one. Are they talking about someone too much or too little? One indication is that there is someone you both know and they start talking about that person constantly. This is because that person is becoming increasingly important to them and they are thinking about them more. Lets say the two of you are having dinner after work and he says ""Barbara said the funniest thing today at work..."" then a little later ""Barbara and I were in a meeting and you won't guess what she did..."" and then still later ""Barbara is going to the beach next week for vacation, I wish we were going...""We all talk about the people we work with, and that in, and of itself is not strange. However if that same person is coming up too often over a period of time, it may be something to worry about. +Now let's look at the other side. What if they normally talk about someone from work all the time, and then suddenly stop. They talk all about work, but avoid mentioning the other person. That could mean that they are trying to avoid calling attention to that person. + 1. Changes in the way your friends or family treat your partner or even you: The sad truth is that in many cases, our friends and family begin to suspect our partners of having an affair before we do. I like to think that this is actually a sweet thing. Most of us tend to see the good in our partners before we look at the bad. Sure, there are exceptions, but love blinders do exist. So look to see if your girlfriends seem standoffish around your male partner. Or do they seem overly sympathetic around you for no apparent reason? Do his friends seem uncomfortable around you or overly cheery? These can be signs that they are uncomfortable and don't know how to relate to you with the new piece of information they have. + 1. Changes in what they do with their phone: Face it, our lives are now ruled by our mobile phones. We are always connected, always available, always in touch. Because phones are so intimately a part of our lives there is a long list of things to look for. Here are a few: + * They start leaving the room when they take a call. + * They start locking their phone when they didn't before. + * They start terminating conversations when you come in the room. + * They are nervous to let you use or look through their phone. + * They have more than one phone, especially if it's one that you don't know about. + * They start taking a lot more pictures of themselves. + * Their phone bill goes up dramatically. + * They start taking their phone with them more. At night do they usually leave it on the table by the couch, but now they are carrying it from room to room with them. + * They take their phone into the bathroom, or other private area for long periods. + * They start locking doors when they are on the phone. + * They start keeping the phone on silent when they are home. + * They see a number on the phone and instantly drop the call without answering it. + * They are hard to get in touch with for longer periods of time with little explanation. + * They take a call and their physical mannerisms change to a softer or flirtier tone. + * They spend dramatically more time using their phone: especially text, email and social media. + 1. Change in clothing and appearance: Have they recently taken up a new interest in their appearance? Are they a lot more concerned than they used to be about how they look? Are they going to the gym more? Trying new hairstyles? Purchasing new clothing? +One of the dead giveaways is that they are purchasing new underwear. This is a lot more of an issue with women than men. However any new underwear, especially if it is different than what they normally wear is cause for concern. New sexy underwear that they don't mean for you to see? That's cause for a lot of concern. + 1. They start suspecting you of an affair: In my opinion, this is the most insidious, and yet it happens over and over. Suddenly and for no apparent reason your partner starts to get very suspicious of you and whether of not you are having an affair. They start questioning your whereabouts and your relationships. They start accusing you of things. Sometimes they get mean about it. +Sometimes this happens when someone is feeling so guilty that they are looking to assuage that guilt by placing blame on you. Sometimes it's a conscious attempt to distract you from their own affair by accusing you of something. Sometimes it's as simple as they thinking that if they are cheating, you must be also. Regardless if they suddenly suspect you, and you have given them nothing to worry about, you should take a hard look at this. +Important Note: Any or even many of these warning signs could be exhibited perfectly innocently. Just because one thing has changed does not mean your partner is having an affair. The more categories they fall into, the more concerned you should be, but that still isn't proof that they are doing anything wrong. +So, who are they cheating with? +When trying to answer this question, the first thing you have to ask yourself is if it's an online affair or a physical one. +Online affairs are intimate relationships that occur over email, social media platforms like Facebook or communication programs like skype. They can include written or verbal intimacy or even physical gratification through the exchange of pictures, videos and mutual masturbation. +Often people discount these as ""not real"" affairs, and therefore somehow more innocent or less hurtful. Unfortunately sometimes the opposite is true. These types of affairs can be devastating to a relationship. +To spot an online affair, look for changes in behavior related to connected devices like computers, laptops, tablets, mobile phones, etc. Many of these will seem to be the same as the list on number 8. +If they are having a physical affair, the chances are that you know the person they are cheating with. People tend to pull from their own social networks, rather than a stranger on the street. Since you and your partner know many of the same people, it only goes to reason that you probably know the person they are cheating with. The most common people for someone to have an affair with, in order, are: + 1. Existing friend + 2. Coworker + 3. Neighbor + 4. A member of your family + 5. A member of the same church + 6. Someone introduced to them by a mutual friend. +You may not know Number Six, but chances are you will know numbers One through Five. Again, look for the changes. Is someone you both know suddenly treating you or your partner differently? Do they seem to be spending a lot more or less time around? Do they seem to show up suddenly when you aren't expecting them? +Yeah, but how do I KNOW? +As I said earlier, you may never know. That's just the way it is. However there are some things you should start paying attention to, if you can. + 1. Always follow the money. Try to get access to any bills or bank accounts you can legitimately. Look for unusual spending patterns. Affairs cost money. + 1. Start checking the mileage on the car regularly. Keep track of it discreetly, and compare it to what they tell you they are doing. Let's say they claim to be going to see a family member, but when they get back there aren't enough miles for them to have made it there and back... or maybe way too many. + 1. When you see someone they were supposed to be spending time with, ask them what they did together. This can be done innocently enough, where it seems like you are just interested in the friend. But if you start seeing inconsistencies, it can be a sign of trouble. + 1. Look for behavior that just doesn't make sense unless they are acting on reasons that they are just not sharing with you. For instance they may be adamant that they don't want to go to an office party, but can't give you a legitimate reason why. Or maybe they are overly upset about being late for a church function. Maybe they are too excited about a painting your sister did, and they never had an interest in that before. + 1. Do not ignore the big signs!! I cannot emphasize this one enough. I can't explain how many times this one happens. Something is so obvious that any rational person would realize it's a giant red flag. However we think to ourselves that if someone were doing something wrong, they would hide it better, so we convince ourselves it must be innocent. (Incidentally this is the same with espionage and corporate theft.) +The only way I can illustrate this is to give a couple examples. +Example 1) A buddy of mine finally had to accept that his wife was having an affair. Before he did though, his wife was traveling a lot for work. One time she told him that she was being sent to a national convention by her company. Two days before she was leaving for the weekend, she told him that the dates for the convention were moved at the last minutes and she would be going two weekends from now instead. His response was ""Oh, that's strange"" and dropped it. Obviously major conventions don't have their dates changed at the last minute. It just doesn't happen, short of something like a terrorist attack or natural disaster. But he was willing to believe her because she was his wife. +Example 2) The COO of one of the companies we work for contacted us and said she was suspicious her husband had an inappropriate relationship with his adult niece. They seemed to be spending way too much time together and were uncomfortably affectionate at times. Some weekends she would stay at the house and he would disappear into her bedroom for long periods of time. When we looked into it, the girl was not related to the husband at all. She was a college student that was basically a prostitute. He was paying her rent and expenses to college for her to sleep with him and pretend to be his distant niece when other people were around. This had been going on for two years before the wife decided she had to know for sure. +Okay, I know now. So what do I do? +I just can't answer that for you. I wish I could, but that has to be your choice. When my girlfriend cheated on me I broke up with her right away and never wanted to see her again. (I did, and it was disastrous, but I didn't want to.) I've known people in better relationships that could get past it and grow stronger because of it. I guess it just depends on the couple. +However the one piece of honest advice I can give you is not to make any rash decisions. If you do find out that your partner is cheating on you, you have a lot of different paths that you can go down. But if you confront them right away, it may limit some of your options. Instead, I would wait to confront them until you are clear what you want to do, and what you want from them. Remember that you are the wronged party, and that you have nothing to be ashamed of." +39,Are We Satisfied,Glenmorangie12,How To,2013-12-01,2013-12-01,2022-01-04 08:25:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/are-we-satisfied,Questionnaire for couples considering more spice.,"['Cuckhold', 'Lifestyle', 'Mff', 'Mfm', 'Swapping Spouses', 'Swinging', 'Watching']",4.43,"This questionnaire will help couples to determine if they are completely satisfied with their current sexual activities or perhaps open up a dialog for a discussion on how to add some spice to a stale relationship. +Before actually starting the questionnaire, it is suggested that the atmosphere be set.

She was sitting with a small stack of papers in her lap and a pencil in her hand. She would look outward, not really looking at anything specifically but instead she was fishing for words to use that would fit into her write. +She scribbled on the paper and then looked upward as if she had just cast a thought, like casting a fishing line out in hopes of snagging a word, thought or phrase. She erased a line and replaced it with a new thought, like replacing the lure/bait with a new one. Then cast a gaze again. +I watched her fish for the words that eventually produced a very lovely and heart felt poem. +Casting thoughts~ +Imagine there is a huge lake before you. A rod and reel in your hand. Throw out the line and watch it splash upon the surface of this lake. At this point you're going 'souly' on feel as you reel the line and lure in slowly. +Hoping that it will bend over like a hooker on Friday night and dance like a belly dancer doing overtime, with a whopper of a tale on the other end. Suddenly you hear a slight swirl in the water and the lure is climbing to the tip of your rod. +'Nothing', you didn't even get a bite. You're as disappointed as a turtle humping a hard hat. +Do not despair; think of it as one of the one hundred throws needed to catch a great fish (story). +Statistics show: Out of one hundred casts, an average of ten fish may be caught. +Out of those ten fish, one or two may be good bounty. +Also, just as we have good days and bad days, we'll have days that are full of good story ideas (like a mass of salmon swimming up river) and other days where you can't think of a tale to save your soul. I recommend you designate a place to store your ideas like storing mounted trophy fish on the wall. +Obviously you'll either narrow down what you'd like to catch or simply fish the big blue waters of anything to land any thing at all. Keep in mind it always comes down to the waters you fish and the lures you use. +Tools~ +Alacrity is a Fisherman! +In order to fish you need a rod, a reel and tackle box. Fishing for a story idea you'll need a genre, a muse and a tool to write with. You're not sure what you'll catch but the joy of fishing along with the reward of a catch just may land you a whopper of a tale. You know what they say... +""You can't catch anything unless you cast a line."" (In this case a line of thought) +But what do you use for bait? Humorous worms on an erotic treble hook or an incest fly on a number 69 swivel-hook or maybe you're trying a new pink colored spinner with artificial intelligence. Homemade fishing lures is what I'll recommend to those fishing for stories. Tie your favorite genre feather to a reasonable size hook that fits your needs. Long, short, twisted or straight. +Some may be lured to read, for instance; The Fisherman, Free Willy, Moby Dick, a Dictionary and Thesaurus, etc. to become inspired to write a similar tale with a special twist. I have even fished the waters of the web trying to catch a spark of an idea or a muse by reading others. +Perhaps one paragraph of the poem 'Fishing for Zen' set your line to sail, the bobber hit the water and made ripples that grew and as you reel in your line, the story unfolds. +Chances are you're going to write within the genre that appeals to you personally. The waters that you're familiar with. I know some that will fish only with a fly rod for Trout, I know those who fish only for Bass and I know those who cast everything in their tackle box just to see what is out there. +Go Fish ~ +Gather your mental gear and imagine a drive to the lake, climb into your literary canoe and cast off. No need for a paddle because you're going to go with the flow and your hands will be busy typing or writing. Unless a paddle is your muse, if you know what I mean. +Absorbed in the surroundings of water gently slapping the boat, the tall pines that line the shore and offer shade from the burning hot sun that has not yet shed its light on thee. The dark shadows and solitude of the thick forest reminds you of the movie; Deliverance and a shiver runs up your spine. While you swat at the mosquitoes that swarm around you. +You'll cast your thoughts into every shadowed pool, protruding stump and moving ripple in hopes of snagging a story idea, or perhaps a word to fit in your write. You may have gotten a few nibbles so you know where you can cast again and hopefully pull in a small perched story but you're holding out for the 'bigger fish'. +A Fish Tale ~ (a true story) +One eyed Walter, we called him. He was a 72-pound 'Op' catfish that we ( My Father and I ) caught on the Trinity River in the early eighty's. I would suspect that leaving an invitational thread, asking for story ideas would be the same as trot line fishing. Leaving your bait out all night in hopes of having a string of 'small mouth' ideas the next day. +I remember pulling up to the trot line on the river and the water swirled as though the Lock Ness monster had just rolled under the surface causing a swell to arise. ""Holy Molly Batman."" I had no idea that this big fish would produce a grand tale with its huge tail. I can hardly express the anxieties that arise when you find a 72-pound catfish waiting for you to un-hook him. +It was not just a catch, it was historic. The biggest fish tale that I could tell you or any one for the rest of my life. It was no small task wrestling with a fish as big as me, trying to get him into the boat. +Once he was in the boat he flopped around violently rocking the boat dramatically and almost rose high enough to go over the side, so I sat on him. Straddled and held it down as if I was awaiting the referee's ten count, while my father drove the boat homeward. +It was Easter Sunday as I recall and when we got back to the house and parked the boat, I was reminded we had very little time before church started. +A well known fact is; when you catch a large catfish they are usually full of fat and the best way to prepare the fish for meals is to allow the fish to swim around for several days, so we tied a ski rope to its bottom lip and tied him to the dock. I was delighted to see One-eyed Walter settle to the bottom of the river and swim around slowly testing the rope and then settle into the muddy bottom. +I showered, dressed and went to church with my family. I couldn't tell you what the sermon was about but I bet you a dollar to a donut my thoughts were on that one eyed catfish. +It had lost an eye sometime or another in its long life so we named him, One eyed Walter. (I have no idea where the name Walter came from) I suppose one of the family members cast a line of thought and that was what they had reeled in. Probably in reference to the Movie: On Golden Pond. +After church I raced back to the house and out to the pier faster than a squirrel climbs a tree. The whole family came walking out to see what we had been bragging about all morning long. Our 72-pound catfish tied to the dock. +Pulling Walter from the water and onto the dock was not an easy task. My Mother, Father, Wife and our 2-year-old son, were all eyes when this huge whale of a fish came out of the water and flopped on the dock. We tied Walter to a boat shed 2 x 4 cross member and raised him upward to weigh him. He was as long as I was and bigger around. His mouth was so big we could have stuck the 2-year-old into his mouth and still had room for a six-pack of 'splash' soft drinks. +""Seventy-two pounds."" +The camera began flashing and pictures were being taken of this huge, once in a lifetime catch. I held the baby and twisted the line to make Walter turn, so that we could get his photogenic side. He didn't like this and began flopping back and forth as we took pictures of Walter the one eyed catfish. +Now the thing I never expected was for the ski-rope to snap and break. It was old and sun rotted and even as big as the rope was it was no match for a pulling and tugging 72-pound catfish that wanted back into the water. I held the baby tightly so that he was not slapped by a tail or a fin. Walter hit the pier, flopped around a time or two, fell back into the river and swam away. The only difference in this story about the fish that got away, is that I have the pictures to prove it. +Now you would as a writer fill pages and pages with adjectives and clichés to fill in the rest of the story. The whole idea is to catch a whopper and paint the story into a picture that lures readers to your short story with a big tale. +Drawing Ideas~ +Ever get the feeling that you couldn't hit water if you fell out of a boat? Or ever feel as though you couldn't draw a bath much less draw a picture? +I could hand you a list of ideas as if I had given you a stringer of fish but that is just not the same. I have heard it said that it is better to write something you know about or something that you have experienced in order to get the full effect into a story. You have to cast your own line and reel for your own fish story. You may have to cast for days before you find the fish that you want to write about but that is all part of the enjoyment we get from writing and fishing for stories. +Remember, the secret to telling a good fish tale is to take a minnow and make a whale out of it. Just how many times have you cast a thought out for an idea and reeled in nothing. As many times as I have I am sure. But rest assured, eventually, something will bite and a tale will unravel as you reel in an idea. +Let's say you cast your thought line out and catch a bass and it explodes out of the water. Writing is like drawing, you doodle the fish coming out of the water. You select the patched pattern along the side of the fish that makes it unique. Draw the swirling lines to imitate the waters spraying splash. You'll have to decide what color the water is and add a background. Finishing the details until you're satisfied with what you have created. +The obstacles that arise from drawing, writing and creating are the same as snagging your line on an under water branch or root. Or the backlash in a reel from casting. Problems and obstacles that arise in real life as well as our stories. Prevailing over these mishaps is what makes the tale. +My Father once told me that when the line gets all tangled up, ""It is much quicker and less frustrating to cut the line and restring than it is to try to unravel and figure out a mess."" +But it is the mess, in a story, that binds the characters together and unraveling the tale is like figuring out a knot. Which of course the hero or main character gets the credit for figuring out the mess, most of the time. +You may draw from an idea or a problem, for example; You have gone to the local Fishing Store with a friend and become separated. Take this problem and expand on it. Create characters and unravel the mystery. Finding that your friend was in the change booth with a stranger having wild and passionate sex in a pair of waders. +You may do as I do and catch several fish (ideas) and save them to eventually decide which story to elaborate on when I need a tale. Trophies on the wall. That is like having an Ace in the hole. +Do you have an Ace? +Go Fish! +* + _(A special thanks to (LuciousBi_Writes4U) and (LeBroz) for their pre-reads, notations and repairs to this story) (~_~)_" +41,Are You Ready For The Publishing Revolution?,darkduelist,How To,2005-11-25,2005-11-25,2022-01-04 08:26:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/are-you-ready-for-the-publishing- revolution,Should you self-publish?,"['Author', 'Publishing', 'Writer']",4.11,"Writing has traditionally been considered a solitary craft.

Get her arms pressed into her head and her legs straight, and jiggle the rope around her ankles and wrists a bit to make sure it's comfortable, and give her another quarter turn. Get her body completely taut. Mmm. Run a feather down this beautiful fillet of somebody's daughter, making her twitch, perhaps making her giggle uncontrollably. Light tickling is a delightful little warmup. See her stomach muscles tense up, just at the slightest lick of the feather. Her nervous system is yours. Good thing I don't like tickling that much. This is more for just getting her heart pumping. It's just a feather. God. +What else do you want to tease your sub with? She eyes me suspiciously, conscious of the nervous system she just handed over. God I love the breasts of a woman on her back. Her big round titties rise and fall a little less shakily now, with my hands at rest. The rack has a certain calming effect on people. Completely bound, completely helpless... they soon realize there's no sense in struggling. Let's kill some time :) +Not done with the feather yet. Let's oil her up. Bondage babes look best when they're covered in baby oil. This step is completely necessary. If she's wearing anything, like maybe leggings or something, you shouldn't worry about getting it wet. Use the thinner, slipperier kind. Drizzle, or pour it or whatever, on her stomach, some on her nipples, all down her legs. It's interesting to watch the fluid flow along her contours in tides, spreading itself evenly, pooling on her stomach and at her pussy, dripping down her breasts, getting her all shiny and sparkling. I like seeing my reflection. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the slippery wet softening of the skin also makes for a more sensitive surface... it feels great. Put a big squirt in your hand and run it down her body. Very sensual. She may also enjoy the baby oil advantage on the soles of her feet, and your nails. Get your feather wet. +Very sexy. Has your sub been struggling? Probably moaning, a lot. It's a wonderful experience, submitting yourself (and not being able to get out), and closing your eyes to accept whatever delights are in store for you. For instance, everyone loves a breast massage. But what's even better than that is a tongue tour. Get on top of her, your knees at her sides. She's slippery like a fish. Put your hands where you want them, and start off by kissing her neck, nibbling her ears. Push her hair out of the way. Drag your tongue (kept nicely lubricated) under her chin and down the valley between her breasts, kissing in a long line past her navel. Bite her hip a bit, and gently drag your fingernails down her sides, from her elbows, and suck, and tease her nipples a bit, make them a little harder. Her inner thighs are unfortunately unavailable. +Ever heard of the Wartenberg wheel? For the uninitiated, that's a stainless steel medieval (not really) torture device and sex toy. It's a pinwheel, with 22 sharp little tines that spin freely on a stick, for rolling across your sub's naked body, VERY effectively. They are inexpensive. You can get one with something like eight heads (which is nuts), for covering a wider area, but typically with one head, to be more precise. I like the head/wheel to be on the smaller side. And sharp. Or at least pointy. Pricky? However it is you describe a Wartenberg wheel, no dungeon is complete without one. +Want to do some neurological testing? Extract a confession? Get on top of her, facing her, her top half in front of you. Her fingers are wrapped tightly around the cords, her eyes glued to your movements. Although her soft boobs are _aching_ to be played with, let's leave them be for now. Start instead at her armpit, rolling the wheel down her ribs, making her go _eeeeeek_ and jumping a bit. It's gonna get rolled down her whole body. Might want to start with her legs instead. +Want to hear every possible variation of ""oh god""? This is how. And god knows the best techniques leave no marks. But we have a bit of maintenance to do before we continue. Do you have a vibrator? See how her legs will hold it for you? Mm, yes, they will. Position it just so, up against her pussy lips, and switch it to a low setting. This is part one to a process of making her scream. Two, get her sensitized. You could do this the trippy way and use hot wax... you should know what kind of candles to use. Specifically on her tits, on her stomach, down her legs and down her sides. If you're doing a slow wax scene and wax is the main point here, take your time. I like picking it off more than I like applying it, though. I just use my fingers but the Wartenberg wheel is good for picking it off her ribs too. Get it all off. +You could spare her nipples, if you want. Could brush them instead, while you're waiting for the wax to cool. Use something soft, like a blush brush or shaving brush. A nerve brush. Give her nipples a good brushing for a few minutes, in some spirals, then peel the wax off. Her skin will be a bit red underneath of it. +I have an additional toy, the Scott Paul windmill. That's what it's called. What it is is another pinwheel, with real pins on it, not just spikes, centered in a larger wheel of soft fibrous feathers, in such a way that you might not even see the pins lurking inside it. I like how cute it looks, and I love the sigh of relief when they see me picking it up instead. It's more for tickling, and, in making the most of her bondage predicament, is absolutely dastardly. It sticks on your finger. I love it. +Regular Wartenberg wheel in one hand, feather wheel on the other. She's breathing through her mouth, her ribs sticking out a little bit, panting and still tingling. No struggle room at all, hehe. The little fiber strands licking her skin make it much more deadly, and it is, seriously, literally, a torture tool. It's the kind of thing you get tied up for. +Wartenberg wheels (regular ones) are a different kind of teasing, and as far as I can tell it stimulates exactly as it was intended to (ie. awesomely). A unique feeling, the Wartenberg wheel is like a bug crawling on your skin, or a razor being dragged, making all the muscles around it quiver involuntarily. Just get one... and leave it on some ice until you're ready. Best used along the inner thighs, under her breasts where they meet her chest (oh god), nipples, across her waist and lower abdomen, her arms, hands, toes, around her neck (carefully), all up and down her legs... you're likely to make some discoveries. Perhaps spend extra time in one area and make her dread you exploring the rest. I like to trace her underwear back on. This is the dungeon, after all. The wheel is best on soft, squishy parts _and_ where her bones are closer to her skin, paradoxically. +She will probably jump, and shriek a bit and try to get away, as the device rolls across her. But she can't get far, and it looks like she's just going to have to deal with it. Some people hate it... you can take some liberties and really make her squeal if you want. Tell her to hold out her tongue. It's like tickling. She will beg you as the pins travel slowly towards her pussy. Yes, no, yes, no, yes, no. It is a temporary mental paradise, honestly, as your body aches all over, yanking at the restraints, all flooded with 3D feelings, no room for other thoughts. Eventually unglue the vibrator from her pussy, kept warm for you, and as slowly as possible run it down beside her clit. +Yes, you can make her lose her mind pretty quickly. The tickler-prickler is amazing. + **Tied to the ceiling** +I'd barely taken anything off when my hands were bound over my head, and further tied to a long rope that went up to a metal loop in the ceiling. A spreader bar appears at my feet, and I have to adjust my balance. Bra and thong. It's riding up my ass a little. I feel like I'm just doing a demonstration of the equipment, the bondage girl in her underwear, legs spread wide, arms stretched to the ceiling now. My legs feel especially bare. Stress positions are sexy... and only a little less so when you're in one. And, um, why am I like this anyway? Why can I barely stand? It wasn't even my idea to-- _SNAP._ She's whipping me. I'm not sure if I like thi-- _CRACK._ That was right across my ass. _OW_ That stings. It's like being bit by a snake. I prefer a dull ache, like clamps, instead something sharp... I thought I was going to fall over at first. +I can't see what my master is doing. She stays behind me, and seems to be going after my butt and my thighs more than anything. I am getting my ass whipped. I can't believe it. _SMACK SMACK SMACK_ And I can't help but shriek a little. But flagellation is just a precursor... we can do better than that. +I don't know how long she whipped me for (not very long), before setting it down. She knees beside me. Very nice, she compliments. I smiled, then heard her zip the toy bag shut. I had heard the noise. The Wheel, the Wartenberg wheel, rattling on its spine. Fuck. My mind is racing, trying to anticipate where the device will land. It's my ankle. She rolls it back and forth a bit and I'm kind of flooded with memorable sights and sounds from wheel use of the past. No, I don't have too much experience on the receiving end, which becomes more and more obvious as it rolls up my calf and behind my knee. I can only think of it as a bug, a fat heavy one with too many legs. Not the best thought when it's crawling up your leg. The backs of my thighs are raw and red and flushed from being whipped. Great... she had to get me tenderized first. Thanks. +Slowly up my left inner thigh goes the small, prickly pinwheel. I hadn't realized we were doing a torture scene. The spreader bar is killing me here, and having to stand. It feels electric and she is expertly tormenting my legs with it, taking care to run it over the spots reddest from the flogging. UGH. I can barely stop vocalizing, let alone stand. She stops. A pause. I hear a click and feel her slapping some cool, soothing oil of some kind on me, and ooh that feels good. I'm just getting into to her rubbing that lovely shit in when she, again, stops, and stands up and walks past, her hand leaving my leg a little hesitantly. She smiles wickedly over her shoulder, and pulls up a chair behind me. Groan. Time for some more butt work, I guess. She pulls my wet thong down. Yes, the device, all over my legs, all over my ass, and all down my freshly peeled ass crack all over again. Lovely. Up your inner thigh is the worst. I wish I were gagged better so she wouldn't know that. + **Oral sex** +Make love to me, I tell him. ""Uh,"" he replies, gesturing to the bondage frame in the corner. I sigh. I see his mistress come up behind him, and slip the pussy collar over his head. Ooh, I'm excited. I'm even more excited when she wraps two leather cuffs around my legs, tightening them over some of my welts from earlier. Woof, he says. I ignore him. I lie back on some pillows against the wall. I have a big grin on my face, and admire the wide leather straps. The trick is to get the clasps near the backs of your thighs. +He gets down on his elbows in front of me. No, down, she says. He gets on his stomach. There's still a good six inches between me and his chin... I arch my back and close my legs over his head to get him closer. He gets close, and kisses me. My mistress clasps two D-rings on his collar to my legs, and the instant I relax his head is jerked down, bringing his nose within an inch of my clit. He struggles a bit and tries to lift his head. He cannot. I savor this for a moment and slowly part my legs, pulling his collar taut and his face to my waxed pussy, for him to slobber on. Aahhhhhhhh. The sexiest part is the perfection. All he can do is lick... he doesn't dare bite me. +His face is, like, right there. And the slightest shift in my hips exerts total control over his head... I can press my thighs to his ears and let him pull back a bit, to tongue my clit, or just as readily sacrifice his scant amount of breathing room, and relax, and spread my legs (often involuntarily), lazily pulling his collar tight and forcing his mouth as close as our bodies will allow. The contact is constant; he is buried in your hips, resigned to enjoying a nice mouthful for a while. You'll find out how much pussy juice a boy can slurp in one sitting. His tongue gets a good workout... he will not be allowed to stop. And, again, the contact is constant. You WILL cum. Probably right in front of his face. I like to throw my arms back... I would be satisfied with two or three orgasms. +Mistress certainly hasn't undone the links on his collar. I ask him what he thinks. He tries to get up on his elbow to reply and is stopped very short, and pulled back down. I can't help but smile; I cross my legs over his back, feeling possessive. ""I think your pussy is awesome,"" he says. He's gonna be having more of it. Spit on it, I tell him. No, don't, says my girlfriend, making him look confused. I had forgotten she was there. She leans over me with a bottle of Sliquid. It's much colder than my radiating skin and I squeal a bit when she squirts a big glob of the clear lubricant on, just under my clit. It starts to roll down. There you go, baby. And the cherry on top: hands tied. Behind his back. There's a wet smacking noise and a muffle _unf_ as his face is pulled back to me. It's like bobbing for apples! Except now he can't support himself. Getting some thick lube on increases the smothering factor, and the extra wetness (as if it were needed) makes this game all the more mouthwatering. Better hope his sinuses are clear... get a pillow under his chest to save his neck. Perhaps have your lover lie over you for a deep make out session, to further melt into tongue bliss. Really great after a rough day at the office. + **How about I murder you?** +Tease and denial. We need a sub for that. See I'm on top, and practicing, we've already decided that. You could have him on the cross, or handcuffed on the couch, which is great for facilitating Nipple Appreciation Day, or on the chair, or just on the bed. You could talk to him about it, and he probably knows what you're thinking about now when get the rope out. Get his hands up over his head before he changes his mind. +We read that (on blowjobs): _The basic technique is to stimulate the penis using the warmth and moisture of the mouth, and the sliding friction of lips, tongue, the interior of the mouth, and the throat. The stimulation should be applied so as to steadily increase arousal toward orgasm, or to reach and keep arousal at a high level just short of orgasm._ Ie., playing with his orgasm. Not letting him have it. We're going to be exploratory, so (on bondage): _The sub's body is placed in a position of stress, continually pulling against the bonds. Bondage has an aesthetic appeal as muscles are tense and well-defined. It makes the sub feel vulnerable and continually aware of their helpless state. [The] inability to move heightens their sense of touch; this can further be enhanced by the use of sensory deprivation techniques._ I'm not sure spread eagle on the California King is a stress position, but good enough. _Often, the person will be gagged so as to increase their sense of helplessness. They may also be blindfolded for the same reason, or not blindfolded so that they can see their teaser being provocative._ Make sure he is stretched out to his fullest before you tie him. Be mindful of the breathing limitations of men or women gagged on their backs. +What's the theme? Skills development, romance, or an afternoon of well-lit sadism? Has he been nice to you lately? What do you wear when you're punishing someone? Strut in, with him already laid out for you, and look down your nose at him in latex.Or lace, leather, PVC, lingerie, whatever! Either that or just your underwear, after you take your jeans off and let him see your legs. Or just don't wear anything. I like fishnets, pushup bras, rubber, corsets, red, black, good posture, and strings over straps. I'm also a fan of being in _just_ a top, or a bra. Tell him how much you're just aching to have it off. It'll make your legs feel longer (like a mile long, when you stand over him). What you want is to be effortlessly extra alluring as the host of the show, whether it's made for TV or not. Arch your back, sway your hips, lick your lips and burn that image into his mind, like a cigarette through a phonebook. The power and tantalizing appeal of all your assets is amplified because he can't touch them. Keep it skimpy :) +So, it's important to consider what your captive is here for. Tease and denial is... what? Perhaps discuss it with him. It may as well be punishment. Just implied punishment. It's my favorite kind of slow torment, as administered by a skilled and vindictive female torture artist (me). He's gonna be stretched out on the bed for extra long today, completely exposed and very conscious of it. Slave scenes are almost always fun. I like an excuse to be excruciating. I don't typically use anything as an interrogation technique... I don't know if that's a lucky thing or not. +How will be pleasure our bunny first? Hold his big erection... It will be yours for a while. I'm like a spider, you see. Soon he'll be even further caught in my web, while I eat him an organ at a time. It doesn't really matter if you're a terrible, sadistic bitch of a cocktease naturally or not. It's not difficult. +I'm assuming he's on his back, on the bed, you're on top. Sit on his stomach and put your hands on his chest and look him in the eyes. His staring has got my breasts aching at this point. Too bad he can't touch them. Do you take it off? I make a special point of this seminal bra-removing moment cause his eyes bulge at the jiggling. A woman crawling around on top of him would make him crazy even with his pants on. +Ball sucking, tonguing, bathing, whatever. His balls will be pretty tight soon, and they like to stay that way. Give him a good, long bath, stretching them out, to wake him up. Suck them into your mouth one at a time for symmetry. Guys: I love sucking balls. But I really love it if they're shaven. +Mm, enough of that. We should get started. Put some clips in your hair or tie it in a ponytail. Handjob time. Latex oil handjob time. You will definitely need some lubricant to truly enjoy the smoothness no fur provides here. You probably have to buy something, if you don't already have something, as nothing provides the same effects as some kind of prepared lubricant. Not olive oil, not massage oil (which is different), not spit, not WD-40, and I hope you didn't think of water. You first thought might be baby oil. Here's some truth about baby oil: technically it is gross (and bad for babies!). It's mineral oil, which is a gas refinement byproduct, and not good for your skin. You can, and should do better. With that said, baby oil does have a couple of lovely qualities, like how it holds heat...use your microwave. I personally don't like KY. Go nuts. A proper squirt bottle of lube is important for skin contact, so make sure you have one. +One of my favorite additional tools is a pair of latex gloves. Not the one size fits all... these are my size with no loose material, not hard to come by. They are medical examination gloves. I probably have sixty pairs left... they're yellow. Examination gloves are for giving handjobs... really wicked handjobs. Wink at him. Squirt a big puddle in one palm, enough to drip, and stick your hands together, and coat your hands. The backs too. And touch him. Yum. What a great, and pleasant way to hold a cock. You don't have to put both gloves on, but I like to switch hands. Just how smooth is greasy latex? Real smooth. Look him in the eyes. Let's do some strokes. How comfortable are you? You'll sit for a while... but will you sit on him? Probably. Look him in the eyes. Let's do some strokes. +With one hand, loosely point him toward you. Wrap one hand around his dick. Yes, of course it's his dick. That's what I'm in to. One slippery latex- skinned hand is enough, however, you have two. One is for guiding him, and massaging him, and the other is for working him. My right hand slides slowly up his penis, with just the right amount of pressure on his shaft. It is wet. It slides past each of my fingers, making him shake, making his head disappear into my fist, slowly engulfing it, making him make a kissy face. All the way up. Hold your fist over it. Maybe three or four inches over it, and lower it, slowly...keeping him with one hand pointed up. Let him pop back in again, and go down. You know what to do. It's like pushups. One up and one down counts as one. +Feel his big, swollen cock slip between your fingers, sputtering, gliding wetly along whatever course you set for it. Get him hard, and shiny. Perhaps this is where your nurse uniform comes in. For optimal nerve testing response, we need his engorged, oily cock kept in place by two fingers around the base. Perhaps a fingertip massage? I don't know, I guess that and fist-fucking him is all you can do, with the gloves. But I like wearing them. Of course, make sure to get warm grease all over his balls as well. Often devote a few minutes to a good nut rub, to let his cock take a break. I smile at the little squelching liquid noises that are produced. I think he just hears them as another confirmation of what we're doing, and that he is tied up in the bedroom and helplessly on the receiving end. This is allll about him, remember, and maximum cum production. Try to be meticulous. And agonizing :) +How do you be agonizing? By squeezing. Less friction means more pressure. It is very delicious. Too sweet, actually. So, in the middle of all this we can pause and examine the effects of the Wartenberg wheel on his penis. Reach over and pick up the slim metal device, and twirl it around in front of him. Has he ever seen one before? Although it's shockingly nasty looking, it's actually better if he has seen it before. Don't think I'm overstating or exaggerating the power of the wheel. Does he jump when it first touches his skin? On his shaft, just above his balls. I hold it at its end and let gravity pull it back down a little. Leisurely roll it under and across his testicles... sometimes he'll choose to watch, but not always. Return it to its starting position, at the base of his cock, with him pointed to the sky, so he can see how high we get. Start it slowly rolling up (obviously slowly), and see if he can handle the pins ascending his taut skin. I like to take it up the side. Tell him to hold still; you need to be precise. You don't want to jump into it, you know? The little thing is just made for hard cocks. If he's not a fast learner... well, we have lots of time to make him learn. Take the wheel up and down and around his shaft, and under his balls, spiraling it, slowly, towards the head of his cock, if he's been good and you didn't have to start over. Believe me, you can kill a lot of time being slow. The real game is in inching it toward the head, keeping it just under, and then eventually going over it. I won't use it on him for long, but I am extra evil when I am. Just pretend you're Satan. +Cock ring? Maybe. Maybe put it on after to really tantalize him. Let him get soft a little, slip it on, and give him a sloppy kiss to bring him back. Is he being a total jerk, swearing, thrashing about? Get out a leather bootlace. Stroke him to a full erection again, and hold the long strip of leather in both hands and his cock in the middle. Begin winding it around his shaft, both ways, firmly but not hard, keeping it flat. He'll exhale and shiver as his cock gets just a little more firm with each pass. The leather strap grips nicely... in one way or another, this is better than a cock ring. Wrap it up like a present, tying it off an inch below his head. I'll typically leave his balls unaffected. The main thing affected here is the head of his cock, and how focused you now have to be on it... Although you can buy dedicated cock corsets, I like the bootlace better. You could keep it on the whole time even, and, in my opinion, this is where the real tongue twister begins. Tight skin means more of his nerve endings pushed to the surface. Focus on using the point of your tongue (that which was _designed_ for pleasure), perhaps after chewing some gum. You know it gets much worse than that. Told you we were serious. Don't worry, you can't suffocate it. +And when we get bored of that we can go back to pumping him for cum. And sucking for cum. And not letting him cum. Are you naked yet? Almost? Get on top of him, and press your breasts into his neck, and kiss his forehead. Feel his skin's temperature difference. He probably appreciates your cool breasts. Too bad there's no one else to satisfy them. Tell him you like having your tongue sucked... or at least I would. Have him experience the warm, silky confines of your mouth from another perspective. +Tease and denial is hard work, naturally, because you're horny. You need an orgasm. It will relax you, and certainly make a difference in more doting attention on him. I recommend you _don't_ use his cock to get you off. I like to make a bit of a show of taking my panties off, so I can sit on his face or fuck him or whatever. See, I'm wearing a black spandex thong, and it frames my ass nicely and makes it look delicious. So get your butt, all slick and wet of course, right in front of his face, hook your thumbs in the waistband, and roll the sticky fabric halfway down your thighs for his eyeballs, and have him guess where you're sitting next. Probably right here. You'll have to get off him again to take it off, so do that. Panties off. Feels nice. How can we make this better? Oh, I don't now, perhaps a puddle of baby oil in your palm, to lovingly apply over his mouth. Tell him to stick it out. +I certainly don't keep gum in forever, maybe ten minutes (gets in the way). Ask him if he wants your gum, like in the commercial. Too bad. Maybe ask him how he likes his dick sucked? Or what he likes about blowjobs. I think a lot of guys see them as, just, you know, another way to get off. But it can be so romantic. Ask him if he likes to throatfuck a bitch. +You could rest on one of his legs, which is comfortable, or on his body, or alongside him, or sit on his stomach, or be between his legs, perhaps. Switch as often as comfortable. This is only half of your lazy Sunday blowjob... the other half is a little more pure and raw than that. If you have an audience you can change some things accordingly, but in general, you're sucking him off. Mimicking a pussy, mimicking some divine alien love creature, giving him something to write home about, that sort of thing. You will experience control. Point his cock where you want it. + _Now_ slide down his body. Mmm, yes, the penis. Cocksucking. The squirming. It's pretty hot, getting sucked. Soft, delightful oral sex is very pleasing. I like to put a pillow under his head so he can watch. Precum? For me? I love precum; let us play with it. Hold his cock in both hands and give him a big flat lick up the underside, hard, like you're trying to lick the skin off. Grin at him, let him see your teeth, and do it again. Another big, textured lick, from his balls to the top. Do it... a couple of times. Give him a kiss, sweetly at the tip. How about some agonizingly slow oral sex and no coming allowed? How ungodly can you be? How much tongue can a boy handle? Maybe we'll find out... maybe we won't. Make at least half of his cock disappear. Don't just put him in, slurp him in. Watch him watch you very intently as your hot mouth descends on him, and your lips part and he's introduced again to some of the softest, sweetest, most orgasm-inducing controlled sensations, and the real teasing begins. Keep your lips sealed and slide up and down it, bringing him closer and closer to orgasm, and stop abruptly, leaving him hanging. Nope, no coming, sorry. I know it feels good enough to... as we understand, that's the point. It's dick sucking on a whole new level. Other moves to keep him boiling (and test his patience) are long licks up the shaft, little nibbles... keep your lips pursed and give him sweet little kisses all over. Feel him quaking, his whole universe centered under you. +With him about two inches buried, hold your mouth over him and open your jaw wider, and part your lips, them as swollen as he is from the suction, and stick your tongue out and slide it down the shaft, letting all that liquid you've built up (saliva, lube, precum, etc) flow past your lower lip and down your chin, in a big sticky curtain down over his cock. He'll throw his head back cause he can't watch, but that doesn't do anything so maybe he'll close his eyes. Smile with him between your teeth. Yes, it's kind of slimy. The slime is kind of spectacular. Let it run all the way down to his balls. Gross. Now you're the wet vac with a mess to clean up. Clean him up (you'll probably have to swallow it) before giving him a slow, loving, wet cock massage with your tongue and then your throat again. Keeping him at the far back of your mouth is how to produce thick porn star spit, which comes rather naturally. You need lots of saliva when you're eating something. It's quite gory actually, your bright red tongue sliding up and down his swollen cock, making him ooze more precum on every pass. I'm not exactly the deepthroat queen I wish I were, but that doesn't mean I can't moan on deep mouthfuls, trying to suck all the way to the bottom. Try to swallow with it in your mouth. +Eventually, release him, and let it smack against his stomach. It's nice to enjoy an intermission. Maybe stretch out and relax beside him. Wipe off his forehead. When I say his balls are mine, I don't mean mine for my own pleasure and my enjoyment. Although I will enjoy it, I believe my enjoyment pales in comparison to the experience of my recipient. I'm the real slave here, relieving my master of all responsibilities, taking the weight off his shoulders. It's up to me to give him the best orgasm; he needs only to submit and enjoy it. So no coming. Do not let him cum. Keep him huffing and puffing like a steam engine instead. Maybe suck an ice cube for a minute. The best thing you can do when you think he's anywhere close to orgasming is just release him completely. Let go of him early, just to be safe. You usually won't have to give him longer than a few minutes. +He's probably hoping for a trip between your thighs again. Whether he makes it depends on how you want to make him cum. Probably the most forceful way is in your hands. The most extravagant way is letting him be a shivering jello-like cumpop in your mouth. I don't know what to call ""just fucking him"". I imagine it must be slightly heartbreaking, watching that ass grind away. There's a big cumshot waiting for me, which I can't wait to swallow, to be honest. Well I can actually. He'll just have to wait for me to swallow it too." +43,The Art of Ball Stretching,thinking,How To,2010-04-19,2010-04-19,2022-01-04 08:39:39,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-art-of-ball-stretching,Your man will love this too.,"['Ball Stretching', 'Handjob', 'Intense Orgasm', 'Submission', 'Tease']",4.43,"Most guys really love having their balls played with, whether it is licking, sucking, stroking, tying them up or yes, even stretching them. Ball stretching is considered to be an extremely pleasurable activity, and is becoming very popular in advanced sexual play. If you are new to the idea of ball stretching, you may wonder just why any man would want to do that. That's a valid question. +Ball stretching creates a unique sensation on its own. Nevertheless, the most common goal of such an activity is to experience orgasm with the balls stretched. As a man nears and has his orgasm, the scrotum attempts to contract and pull the testicles up towards the body. Any mild resistance to this, such as having your balls stretched, causes a prolonged and much more intense orgasm than normal. It is truly unbelievable and is extraordinarily erotic. As the man reaches orgasm, he cums and cums and cums and shoots for miles. The reason for this is because the balls are unable to retract very far back into the body during orgasm even though the body tries to pull harder and harder, intensifying the orgasm. +To check out ball stretching, you might investigate some sex toys on the market. Ball stretchers and parachutes are straps of various sizes that go around the top of the scrotum horizontally, forcing the balls down into the stretched position. These include close snapped leather cylinders, double- ringed cock rings that are combined with ball stretchers, and other devices that will separate the balls while stretching them out at the same time. Parachutes are parachute-shaped devices with a hole in the middle for the scrotum to pass through, with the parachute itself resting on top of the balls. Ball weights are then hung from chains below the parachute. Weights can also be hung from arrangements of chain or rope attached to the scrotum. +If you are not interested in experimenting with expensive gear right off the bat, you can always try using a 3-foot length of soft nylon cord, or a medium weight shoestring, to tie off your balls and attach light weights. Just a modest strap around the top of the scrotum will have the effect of trapping the balls and preventing them slipping out of range. It's best not to use the thin or hard cords, as they might bite too hard. The easiest way is probably by looping the near end of the rope around the base of both the shaft and balls. The serves as an anchor as you slowly wrap the cord around the ball sac in a gradual stretch. Your goal is to eventually tie the 2 ends together at the bottom where the weights are hung. +Let me explain the technique further. First your wife (or girlfriend) needs to go to a sewing shop or craft store and get a 3/16 inch diameter cord about 2-3 feet in length. I think in the trade it's called sash cord. Even a 2-3 foot cotton shoelace will work adequately. Then it's off to the grocery to pick up a quart of milk. No milk isn't part of the activity but you'll want to use the plastic container, which includes a small handle, to fill with water to act as the ball weight. Very easy on the entertainment budget huh? +For the next part, a sexy warm shower together is a really great start since it allows a guys balls to get really loose and dangly. In any case, it's dangly balls you want. Now you just have to stand in front of her, spread your legs slightly, and she is going to make a simple loop in the center of the cord and slip that loop over your balls while positioning the cord so it hangs from the rear of your scrotum. She should go slowly and gently tighten the loop. +Once the cord is positioned, and the loop slightly tightened above your testicles, she needs to attach the empty milk container to the end of the string. She can then begin to fill the container with water. Gradually the water filled container gently begins to tug on your scrotum. As the full pull of the weight bears down, your balls should be fully bulged in the bottom of your scrotum, and they should be rotated forward slightly and very prominent as the string applies a constant pull to your testicular cords. You should tell her when you feel a healthy pull on your scrotum. The beauty of the milk container is that you can adjust the amount of water to just the right degree of tug. You will be able to tell her when enough is enough. (Note: Weights of 500g-1.5kg (1-3 lbs) should be enough to give sensation and be safe. FYI a quart of water weighs about 2 pounds, which is just about right for most men.) +When you feel that you have taken all the weight you can handle, allow her to massage your cock in a normal handjob fashion. You will notice a unique set of sensations as she does this and you might find yourself approaching orgasm a bit faster than usual. Nevertheless her goal should be to reach that edge, that delicious point of no return just before orgasm. If you can manage it, have her slow down her strokes as you feel your balls wanting to pull up. Your knees will probably get weak and after a while you won't be able to take any more. At this point have her stroke you vigoursly and you will shoot your white-hot semen everywhere. You will probably find this to be one of the most intense orgasms you have ever experienced. Now, you will be hooked on ball stretching. +Surprisingly enough, many women enjoy giving pleasure to their men in this fashion. In fact, they enjoy it so much, that many are not only willing, but also excited to help men investigate other ball stretching devices and teasing techniques. A lot of women will go shopping with their boyfriends and husbands to find the latest and best in ball stretching devices. Women love putting the ball stretching devices on their men's balls. Some will start out doing it at the very beginning, while others work it out eventually in a sexy hot way. +One couple I know (Lisa & Andy) actually makes ball-stretching sessions into a sexy role playing game. Lisa even has a full-fledged sexy outfit she wears when she and Andy are engaging in ball stretching sex. Lisa started this one night when Andy least expected it. She knew that he enjoyed ball stretching so she went shopping and bought a black leather corset, and black leather thigh high boots with very high heels. To make it even more fun, she bought a very nice parachute-stretching device with weights. That night, Lisa got all dressed up, and ordered Andy into the shower as soon as he got home from work. Upon getting out of the shower, Lisa ordered him to stand next to the bed, where she proceeded to tie his wrists behind his back with a silk scarf. Then she got out her little surprise for him. She made sure he was totally helpless as she attached the device to his balls. The excitement of the whole scene combined with the sensations produced by the ball-stretching device caused Andy's cock to become quite hard. Lisa used this to her advantage. Teasing Andy verbally, Lisa spoke to Andy in a sultry voice. She let him know that she was in charge, and that she would decide when he would cum. +Andy said later, that he had never found anything so sexually exciting in his life. He loved both the control Lisa was taking and exerting over him, but also the way full feeling that he experienced from the apparatus she had attached to his balls. Lisa also added to this experience by performing the most sensuous handjob on him he had ever experienced. +The key thing to remember in ball stretching is that levels of tolerance vary enormously. Ball stretchers and weights aren't hazardous within reasonable limits, but don't get impatient and overdo. When you're playing with anyone new, always start out lightly with any kind of stimulation to the balls and increase the intensity gradually. With an established partner you can safely begin at a higher level and move faster, but you should still be very sensitive to his (or your own) reactions as you go along. The man must be able to let the woman know unmistakably when he's had enough. Do not leave the any genital bindings on too long and certainly not overnight - a good rule of thumb is to remove them every 20 or 30 minutes and allow the circulation to return to normal for a while. +Well that's it. I guarantee this will turn a man inside out. In any case it is really intense for a guy, and it's an awesome way for a girl to see some fantastic waterworks up close and personal. I guarantee you will absolutely love it to the max!" +44,Art of Erotica,Quint,How To,2003-04-11,2003-04-11,2022-01-04 08:26:03,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/art-of-erotica,"Make your ""moaner"" story a ""screamer""!","['Air Pushed', 'Bigger Cock', 'Cutting Air', 'Erotic Fiction', 'Held Thighs', 'Make Em', 'Make Story', 'Man Place', 'Pushed Throat', 'Stepped Man']",4.4,"You and I are here for a reason: smut. I write it, you read it; maybe you write some of your own as well, you poor masochist. Smut is a good thing: it lets us live our naughtiest fantasies without fear, effort, or the money it would take to get a girl to let us do THAT to her. It makes us happy. And, of course, it makes us horny and hopefully aids in the relieving of that horniness. Smut is a very good thing. +It can usually be a lot better. +Don’t misunderstand me—I’m not about to imply that there is one Holy Code of Erotic Fiction. Quite the opposite! There are as many styles of writing as there are ways of thinking and speaking, and that is what makes this such a wonderful place. The words I use are too esoteric for many people—and if you had to look that up, you’re probably one of them—but my writing appeals to many others. I tend to avoid authors whose keyboards apparently were not built with the comma key, but judging by their stories’ high ratings, I’m not always in the majority. Fiction is like language: we’re all capable of creating our own personalized type of it. +However—ah yes, you knew it was coming—, just as there is the language howled maniacally at the television when Notre Dame makes yet another incomplete pass and there is the language forced out in painfully-precise dribbles onto a college essay, there are different languages of writing. Each serves a purpose, but some serve them better than others. A story devoid of punctuation may be the hottest thing ever conceived of, but eventually most readers will simply get exasperated and at the very least, the story will be rated lower than it could have been. All because of one flaw that ruined the reader’s viewing pleasure. There are tips and tricks to counter those fatal flaws and help to make your story that much more enjoyable, and here are the ones I find most helpful. +Characterization. I can’t stress this enough without resorting to the dreaded caps. One thing I’m sure you’ve noticed about reading short erotic stories is that they tend to follow one of a not-very-long list of formulas: naughty schoolgirl gets punished by her stern teacher after class, sexy young wife moves in next door, a couple gets stranded on an island/by the side of the road/in the rougher part of town, and so on. These are scenarios that generally turn people on; they keep getting recycled simply because they are effective. That’s fine. However, how many times can you read them without your interest flagging? Well, it all depends on what the author does to spice it up. Characterization is the best way to do this. +Consider this well-used plot: an attractive woman has just started a new job. She is extremely eager to do the job well and please her new boss, and of course this inevitably leads to all sorts of improper situations. We’ve all read this one. How can you the author make it new? Where can you add your own personal touch, the creativity that makes the story yours as opposed to the 5,000 other stories with the same plot? Add something shocking, something unexpected, something that is random and almost insignificant but definitely unique. Are you a martial arts enthusiast? Let your businesswoman go straight from work to her weekly Judo class to relieve some of that tension she built up over the course of the day. And when she is in the expected “Just as I’m starting to fit into this lifestyle of work and sexual favors, here comes this frustrated coworker to rape me” scene, have her throw him over her shoulder! Who the hell needs a hero? The reader will go “Huh. That was unexpected,” and you’ll have yourself a novel idea. Novel ideas are good because they keep the reader alert and interested. That’s good, right? Damn skippy it’s good. +Try to take an action or a dream or a trait of yours and stick it into a character. I personally look at a problem that I’m currently having, isolate and magnify it, and let my main female character deal with it. This has two benefits: one, I have a realistic dilemma to work with, and two, if SHE has fixed the problem by the end of the story, then I know how to fix it for myself. (The fact that I rarely finish my own stories makes this trick not so helpful.) Your technique of course may and probably will differ. However, using yourself as the test model has the advantage of “I don’t have to look up anything new to make the story realistic. Yay!” And it does hold the reader’s attention—I guarantee it. +So you have yourself a character, full of genuine, realistic qualities. Maybe you even have two! Now you can take a stab at the story. I like to look at a story that I’m writing as a sexual experience, and one a little more thorough than a typical teen misadventure. The story has to build in intensity and sexual tension from the very beginning. You can’t have 20 paragraphs of the most average, uninteresting, nondescriptive, nonsexual events, and then BAM! He’s fucking the girl he was just sipping coffee with. The reader just isn’t ready for that. Most people don’t open a story and immediately get wet/hard. You have to work for it. Toldja you were a masochist! +How to remedy this situation? Drop an innuendo here, a little shiver of excitement there, a stray thought that really shouldn’t be there because she’s in a meeting and ought to be paying attention, eye contact maintained a second longer than was comfortable, and so on. You get it. Use the introduction as foreplay: you are getting to know the characters, to become familiar with them and develop some sort of connection with them. This is when you’ll need to really show who the characters are, so that the reader too will know and relate to them and thus have an interest in what happens to them. Show them to be fascinating and sexual beings, people that we in our dream world would like to have lots and lots of sex with. I don’t just mean make all the women 38-DD and the men hung like a mastiff on steroids. Give them fuckable personalities, too! After that, take the heat up a notch and start increasing the amount of sexual dialogue and actions. Easy there, tiger—I don’t mean leap right into the bedroom yet. You want the reader to want the characters to fuck. You want the reader to be practically begging for the characters to finally get to it. You want the reader to be gnashing his teeth in frustration that the characters are taking so damned long and then, finally, you will give the reader what he wants and he’ll come all over the keyboard. Mission accomplished. +Do you have the patience as an author to draw the story out this long? Is it even necessary? The answer to the second one is no. Like I said, look at a story like a sexual experience. It can be tantric; it can be a quickie. However, even quickies require some heated words and furtive gropings that make your partner not even care that it’s going to be short, because it’s also going to be sweet. Likewise with the story. You can make the plot nonexistent and not hurt the sexual tension in the least. However, take the tension away and you might as well stick the story in Non-Erotic. Coax the arousal out of the reader. Seduce them. Make them yearn for satisfaction—and, of course, make sure you give it to them. +So now you’re down to the sex. About friggin’ time. If you mess it up here, there’s no hope for the story. Don’t be timid about leaping in and giving every sordid detail; the reader really won’t mind. They’re kind of hoping for it. Now is not the time for evasion and euphemism—tell the reader what they want to hear! Think about it yourself: what sort of thing do you pay attention to in sex? What particularly turns you on? Is it the sight of your wife straddling you and riding your cock? What exactly about that? Her breasts bouncing up and down? The way she closes her eyes but her mouth always falls open in an O of pleasure? The way her hands claw at your chest when she comes? Dammit, write exactly that! What’s so erotic about giving a blowjob? Is it his sudden inhale of breath as your mouth first envelops his cock? The heavy soft heat of him against your tongue? His fingers twisting in your hair, coaxing you to go down farther, take him deeper? The moans he can’t hold back as he’s coming deep down your throat? Say all of that. Don’t limit yourself to mere actions—give the setting, the sounds, the taste, the little details. Even more importantly, give the reactions. Compare these two paragraphs: +They were surrounding her now. The first man pushed her to her knees and shoved his dick in her mouth. He pumped in and out for a few minutes, came, and stepped away to let the second man take his place. This one had a bigger cock. He made her take it all, cutting off her air as it pushed down into her throat. She gagged and held on to his thighs as he fucked her face, pulling out at the end to come all over her face and breasts. +They were surrounding her now, she noticed with a whimper. The first man pushed her to her knees roughly and shoved his dick into her mouth. “Yeah, bitch, take it all. Take every fucking inch of it.” He pumped in and out, enjoying the tears streaming down her face, until with a groan of pleasure he came in her mouth and stepped away to let the second man take his place. This one had a much bigger cock. She squealed in fear and tried to move away but he grabbed her head and shoved it down on his enormous cock. He made her take it all, cutting off her air as it pushed down into her throat. Panic flooded her mind, erasing all ability to think, erasing everything except for fear and the humiliation at being so totally used by these men. She gagged and held on to his thighs as he fucked her face brutally, pulling out at the end to come all over her face and breasts. With each pulse of semen that hit her, she moaned weakly. +The first paragraph reads like a shopping list: this happened, then this happened, then this happened. There’s no reflection on what any of it means to the characters and so it feels empty and unsatisfying. You don’t really know much of anything about what the characters are feeling, if they’re enjoying themselves, what emotions are going through their heads, and so on. The second paragraph takes the same sentences and fills them out with more details. I find “sound” descriptions particularly arousing and so I pay special attention to dialogue and moans, whimpers, squeals, and so on. If you’re more visually- oriented, give lots of details about the look of disgust and terror on her face as she is forced to suck these men off. There are an infinite variety of ways to play with description and make it unique to you. It just takes a little self-reflection and patience. The end result is more than worth it. +So, to summarize, focus your attention on building realistic, unique characters. If your characters want to fuck each other, we ought to want to as well. So make ‘em live, and make ‘em love. (Making ‘em love more than once probably won’t hurt your rating, either.) But don’t get to it too soon! Let them simmer in the stewpot of lust—and don’t ever, ever use that phrase in an erotic context. And finally, lock them in the bedroom and give the reader all the dirty details they could ever want. You’ve just written a lovely, quality piece of erotic fiction, my friend.

Something were both of you can climb onto. \- Oils: Preferably something smooth and silky. My personal favorite is Baby Oil. \- Towels & Warm Water: To clean up after you finish. \- Clean sheets: One for under, and one to cover your partner. \- Soft tunes: Nothing overly erotic, simply something soothing. +First and foremost: +Make your partner comfortable. This means ask them to remove their clothes. If they wish, you may do the same, but please remember that this is a massage session and not a sexual encounter. +The second rule of the massage: +As stated above, this is a massage, therefore you must avoid the obvious sexual body parts. No rubbing her breasts, nipples or pubic areas. +The order of the massage: +This is an important part of the massage. Keep a general order on how you wish to perform the massage. By doing so, you know where you have massaged and where you are going next. If you perform massages often, you may want to vary the order, this way your partner will not be expecting your touch in certain areas each and every time. +This is my order, please feel free to use them at your discretion: +I usually start with my partner on her stomach, covering her with the sheet, leaving her shoulders exposed. Always remember to never remove both your hands from your partner’s body. Always keep some contact with them. +\- Temples: I always start at the temples, the source of all tension. I gently stroke in circular motions, applying a soft touch. Going clockwise, then counter clockwise, you can relieve most of her tension in only a few minutes. +\- Neck: Rubbing her neck with both hands, one on each side starting at the base of your partner’s head working down toward her shoulders. Using your thumbs, rub the spine downward. As you come back up, remove your thumbs, running your fingers up the side of her neck. Repeat as above. +\- Shoulders: The bearer of all problems a person experiences. Applying proper pressure to the shoulders can make your partner feel relaxed and more comfortable for the rest of the massage. +\- Arms: Now you must choose an arm and massage that arm, and only that arm first. Starting from the shoulder run your hands down the arm to the elbow and back. After massaging the upper arm, proceed to the lower arm, stopping at her wrist. After the lower arm, take her hand and massage the back of it and each individual finger. After completely the entire arm, return to shoulder and gently rub the entire arm from shoulder to hand. Now repeat the same to the other arm. +\- Back: This section is for the upper back, just above the dip in the lower back. Starting with rubbing the spine, work outwards. From the spine, rub your hands toward her arms, working downward as you go. +\- Lower Back: As above, working from the spine outward. Concentrate on just above the tailbone. Most people experience discomfort here, so please be careful and gentle. Remember, stay away from her bottom, but you can massage her hips. (More hip massage is covered when she turns over) +\- Thighs: Now you want to break down the legs as we did for the arms. Start with the thighs working not only the back of her leg, but the sides. She may be ticklish, so if she says she is, don’t dwell in that area. Nothing kills a good massage than a fit of laughter. +\- Calves: have you ever heard a woman not complaining how her calves hurt? This is the perfect way to satisfy her without sexual intercourse. The main area to concentrate here is the lower leg, right above her ankles. +\- Feet: Another sensitive area. If she is extremely ticklish, you may want to bypass this area. Do the same here as you did for the hands. Rubbing the inside of her foot, and then rubbing each individual toe. After completing the toes, run your hands up her leg to her bottom, avoiding her crotch please. Now repeat the last three steps to her other leg. +Now we have completed the first stage of the massage. Your partner should be very relaxed. This is where is it important that you are able to lie beside her. Lay down, your face near hers, but don’t speak unless she speaks to you. Run your hand along her back in soft lingering motions. About this time, she should have a smile on her face (Hopefully!) +About two minutes is quite satisfying, but you may go longer. When you and your partner are ready, ask her to turn over onto her back. When she is comfortable, put the sheet over her again, covering her chest. +\- Neck: This time you want to begin with her neck. Running your hands from just behind her ears to her shoulders. She may raised her neck to you, this is a normal reaction. +\- Shoulders: As from behind, rub her shoulders from her neck to her arms. Do not go any lower than her collarbone. +\- Arms: Now you want to concentrate on a single arm again, this time working the front of them. Again, another ticklish area is the crook if the arm, where it bends. Repeat as above, dividing the arm in three sections. Repeat for second arm. +\- Chest: I know what you’re thinking, but no, this is not a breast massage. Here you want to massage from below her collarbone to her stomach, avoiding rubbing her breasts and nipples. I know guys, it is tempting, but resist the urge. +\- Stomach: Gentle touches to her stomach are very pleasing. Work from the middle of her stomach toward the outside, rubbing her sides as you do. Be sure here again, you avoid rubbing her pubic mound. +\- Hips: Her hips are in constant motion during the day, why not give them a good rub down? Take both hands and massage one side, kneading her sides gently. Then proceed to the other side. +\- Thighs, Legs and Feet: As above, separate the legs into three sections, working on each leg separately. +This finishes the second part of the massage. What there’s more? Oh yes, one of the most important part of the massage. +Take your towel, washcloth, etc and dip it into the warm water. Run the towel along your partner’s body, wiping the oil off her body. Remember to refresh the towel often, as it may lose most of its heat with the oil. +Now, if you have followed the steps properly, and taken your time, your partner should be very relaxed and very satisfied. If you performed very well, she may return the favor, or even better, she will want to bed you immediately! +Most of all, have fun and relax. She will appreciate it.

With 30+ years of cock sucking experience behind me, I would love to share some of my sexy secrets with you, on the art of giving head. +Like most sex acts, there are an infinite number of positions you can assume in performing them. With this particular technique, I recommend your man be standing in front of you, facing you, while you kneel or squat on the edge of a low to medium height bed or sofa. If he begins to feel a little weak in the knees as the act progresses, he can simply lean forward against the bed for support. +You should take his hard cumpole very gently into both your hands, placing all ten fingers on the shaft, not touching the head or tip yet. Slowly begin rubbing his skin softly, by moving your hands back and forth in opposite directions, as you would twirl a stick in your hands to start a campfire. Remember, start gently -- no hard squeezing yet! +As you continue these finger-stroking movements, open your mouth wide in order to fully cover the cock's head without touching any part of it. When the entire head is inside your mouth, slowly close your lips over it as you start sucking softly. Utilize every area of your mouth -- tongue, cheeks, teeth, and roof -- to make direct cock contact! Continue this touching/sucking technique for about 10 minutes. +Glide the tip of your tongue back and forth, along the section where his shaft meets the head and forms a v-shape on circumcised penises. If your man is uncut, then you should do this tongue action around the ridge of his foreskin, being careful not to lift up the foreskin too much with your mouth. That area is extremely sensitive on uncut cocks. He may also enjoy a bit of nibbling, but be careful not to bite down too hard! The combination of the sucking and licking and nibbling should have him squirming a bit! +Begin twirling and twisting your tongue more firmly along that v-spot, while lowering your hands further down his shaft, continuing to touch him with all your fingers. As you slide the shaft deeper down your throat, lower your hands to tenderly touch and caress his balls. You should also be running your tongue up and down the ridge on the underside of his penis, where the canal-like tube fills with cum all along the length of his hardness. You can flick your tongue back and forth across this ridge as you work your way up to the head again. +When you reach the head on one pass, try smacking your lips and making kissing noises, while suctioning up any precum that has leaked out from the top of his rod. +Each time you slide his dick back down into your throat, you should push it just a bit deeper, deeper, deeper, until the tip is pressing against the soft part of the back of your throat. At the point where he is deepest in your mouth, you should be sucking furiously and rapidly, keeping your tongue in constant motion. If his cock is too long to fully fit down your throat, you may use your fingers on the part of his shaft that is exposed, jerking him off in harmony to your sucking action. +Throughout the entire blow job, enhance his pleasure by continually moaning, groaning, and making humming noises in your mouth and throat, sending hot vibrations up and down his cock!!! To excite him even further, speak to him now and then. Tell him how much you love to suck him off and say how wonderful his cock feels in your mouth when it is rock hard and throbbing. +Teasing him orgasmically is another little trick that should drive him into ecstasy. Each time you feel he is nearing ejaculation, release his rod from your mouth for just a second or two -- then resume rapidly by plunging him deep into your throat again. +Here is a little secret I learned, in order not to choke or gag on his fluid when he shoots his load: Just before he explodes, thrust his whole length to the back of your throat, letting the head press firmly into the back of your mouth at the base of your tongue -- his juices will then shoot smoothly down, barely leaving a taste. I find it helpful if he tells me just when he is about to cum, so I am sure to have him deep-throated at the right moment. +As a hot and sweet finale to the act of giving head, savor a few drops of cum, letting them lie on your tongue and dribble out the corner of your mouth. Plant a deep, loving kiss on his lips, letting him get a taste of that which you have just sucked from him!

Wonder what the diploma would look like? I dabbled in masturbation in junior high school, absolutely devoted myself to the pursuit in high school and by the end of college, should have been teaching it. Perhaps I can rectify that now. Consider this your first course. +Time was, masturbation got a bad rap. Nobody really talked about it much, even to their friends; it was embarrassing. A lonely last resort for those unable to get the real thing. Perverts who couldn’t control their animal instincts enough to keep their hands to themselves. What bullshit, and a waste of good energy. +The truth is, masturbation not only feels wonderful, but serves several useful purposes. +First, if you’re like me, you’re in the mood a lot, and you simply cannot wait to have sex with your significant other to cum. Maybe you’re having sex one, two or even three times a week, but it’s not enough. I hear you. That’s where masturbation gives you the release you must have, and I do mean must. +Or maybe you have no significant other at the moment. It sure doesn’t mean you don’t have needs. And since no one knows better than you do how to satisfy those needs, and no one is available to, then you’ve got yourself a new hobby. Beats chess. +How about those people who are having sex at home, but it’s just not satisfying. Maybe it’s tender and loving, but too brief. They long to be tied up, spanked, and have a large object shoved up their asses by a beautiful stranger while their other hand is…well, you get the picture. For these people, masturbation can mean the difference between a life of frustration and a situation they can tolerate. Ever been there? +For me, the best part of pleasuring yourself is the fantasies. There are no rules; nothing is out of bounds. No restraints at all. Creativity is king. You can be having sheet-tearing sex with anyone and everyone you choose, anywhere you like. Man, woman, cousin, movie-star, musician, athlete, teacher, porn- star, friend, boss…just to name a few. Inside, outside, in the movie theater, ski lodge, motel room, in the pool, on the desk, bent over the sink, in the shower…and I’m being tame. +And your object of fantasy can say whatever you want them to. How much they’ve always wanted you, how badly they need for you to make them cum…only you. Remember that high school flame you never got to fuck? It’s never too late. Short skirt on the girl in the next cubicle got you revved up? Use that image. Mrs. Jones, your junior-high school teacher with the short skirts and great legs? The combinations of people and places and endless. That’s half the fun of it. +The other half is what your mind can conjure that rarely – or never – happens in real life for you. A friend of mine, for example, never has anal sex at home, but craves it deeply. Her fantasy goes something like this: +She’s naked and blindfolded, laying face down on satin sheets. She can smell his cologne as he comes closer; hear his breathing. She jumps a little as she feels his tongue lick her ankle, making a wet path up her calf to her thighs. She shivers just a bit as her nipples begin to harden. Her legs start to spread all on their own, but he takes her ass cheeks in his strong hands and spreads them apart. +Her asshole is open and exposed as he first licks small circles around it. Wetness seeps from her swollen pussy as he sticks his tongue in her ass. Behind the blindfold, she sees stars – small explosions beneath her eyelids. She feels his weight and the hard muscles of his chest against her back as he climbs on top of her. A brief flash of pain – or is it pleasure – and he’s inside her, his cock making long, smooth strokes in her ass. +She opens her mouth to say – something – but as his hands cover her breasts and squeeze her nipples, no words come emerge. The feeling of his cock moving in and out of her ass is exquisite, like nothing she’d felt before. It sends shivers up and down her legs, over her stomach and into her neck… +He whispers in her ear, “you like it in the ass, baby?” +“Yes,” she moans, “so much.” +“You like being my little whore, feeling my hard cock fucking your ass?” +“Yes…I want to be…need to be your whore.” +She feels the sharp crack of his hand on her ass. +“Yes…yes,” she cries, water seeping from the corners of her eyes, “Oh God…yeeeessssss.” +Again she feels the sting, again…until it blends with the dreamy feeling of his cock easily – surprisingly easily – sliding in and out of her now willing ass. Her hands reach down to the smooth folds of her pussy and, spreading her lips, she rubs the hard nub that makes her jaw quiver. She feels the stirrings of the evening’s first orgasm about to intensify and overtake her… +OK, let me get my breathing back to normal, before I get carried away and have to practice what I’m preaching. I’m only trying to illustrate that fantasy can take you places you may never go in real life, and why not take every advantage? Masturbation does not have to be two minutes in the bathroom – though it can be if you like – it can be all day in your bed, it can be twenty minutes on the phone with a “friend,” it can be whatever you want it to be. +Years ago, I never thought much about women masturbating; never realized they did. I really can’t believe I was that naïve. Now that I know better, I have found that women seem to enjoy bringing themselves to orgasm in more passionate and creative ways than guys do; than I ever did. More than that, I think it’s hot. Very hot. When I hear about what some women do, it makes me heart beat fast and gives me a lump in my throat, among other places. +And this brings me to the reason for this article. Sharing information is what helps us improve in every facet of our lives. God, if only I’d known way back when what I know now. I would have left a trail of happy women from CT back here to NJ. It also would have helped me please myself a lot more. So in the interest of helping people please themselves, I offer the following information. +Men +I’m not going to go into the reasons we all masturbate, but just let me say they’re all healthy. When you’re young and inexperienced, you kinda feel foolish looking at an adult magazine you stole from your father’s drawer or got from a friend, a jar of Vaseline at your side and your cock in your hand. Late at night in your room, trying to be quiet and not let anyone see your flashlight. I should know, I’ve felt foolish thousands of times. Being caught, of course, would be a fate worse than death. Far worse. You may still be far away from the days when you masturbate in front of your lover, while she says nasty things to you, just for the turn on and because she likes to see you spurt cum. Good times ahead if you pick the right girl. +There are probably very few places I haven’t jerked-off. High school bathroom stall, fitting room at Macy’s, deserted office at work – and that’s before I got creative. I have no doubt that I coaxed enough sperm to re-populate China. So, I guess it’s fair to say that I’ve learned a few things. +For one, masturbating to fantasy alone is fine, but not as much fun as doing it while looking at adult photos in a magazine or on the Internet, watching a porn, or even reading a literotica story. Why? For some reason, it’s more rewarding to stoke your furnace with something tangible. Watching a beautiful porn star suck down cock like she needs it for nourishment, or having her ankles held high in the air while she looks into her lover’s eyes and receives a good hard fucking is a great way to get and keep a hard on for…oh, about a year. Certainly long enough to make yourself cum. When you have material like that, it tends to keep your mind from wandering. Of course, you have to have the time and place. +To lotion or not to lotion, that is the question. Vaseline is out of the question totally, in my opinion. It works great, but it’s not water-soluble. So your cock is going to be slick, soft and water-repellent for about the next two days. Plus, it’ll keep sliding out of your hand when you pee, so tell the guy at the next stall to watch out! Stick with lotion, unscented if you don’t want your cock smelling like a florist shop. I would recommend water-soluble lotion – Astroglide, whatever – over nothing, when it’s possible. To me, I’d rather have as much realism as possible. And in my experience, the vaginas my cock has had the pleasure of entering were warm and wet. If you know any dry and cold ones, please keep them away from me. More importantly, without lotion, you have to stoke light and fast to keep from “burning” your skin, while using lotion is much more like the real thing: long, hard strokes. +Take your time. There are two good reasons for this advice. First, why rush through something you enjoy. That’s one big difference between women and men. Women tend to take their time, often enjoying one orgasm after another and creating elaborate, romantic fantasies. Men seem to want to start and finish before the TV commercial is over. It’s not a race or a test, it’s an enjoyable activity. When you have the time, go slow. Second, and more important, when you rush though masturbating, you’re actually training your mind and cock to ejaculate quickly. It’s true. Therefore, when it’s actual sex, how are you going to please your lover when you cum in 30 seconds? +That got your attention, didn’t it? So yes, take your time; take it easy. When you get close to cumming, slow it down. Maybe even stop for few moments. The closer you can get to cumming, then stop, then start again, the longer you may last when it's time for the real show. If you’re smart, you’ll have given her at least one orgasm before intercourse anyway – but that’s another article. My point is, when you can prolong cumming during masturbating, you can do the same thing when it counts. This will make you a very popular fellow. Plus, there’s nothing to boost your confidence like knowing you really know how to please her. +By the way, if you’ve got a date tonight, cumming in advance can help you last longer later when you’re actually fucking. But not right before. Maybe that morning or afternoon. No need to reduce the sexual tension because seeing her in that tight dress doesn’t make your balls ache as they should. Give yourself some time in between. This has worked well for me in the past. Even when I was younger and could cum four times in a night. Two times is enough now. +Now, as far as your other hand goes… +You can always play with your balls, which feels pretty damn good, as you know. And obviously, some guys want to rub between their asshole and balls (the “taint” area), which is also great, because it’s so sensitive. I will give you one word of caution, though: if you want to stick your finger in your ass (which, by the way, requires a bit of contortion when you’re lying down), make sure you’ve washed your hands. Introducing the bacteria or dirt from your fingers into your colon is not best of ideas, unless you’re a fan of infection. Other than that caution though, the rule is, if it feels good, do it. I mean, leave the cat alone, but if you’re doing something to yourself that feels good and does not involve live electricity, then go ahead and enjoy yourself. There are few things that feel as good as cumming. Winning the lottery…maybe. I’d like to be cumming when I get the news, though. And if no- one is available, I’ll help myself, thanks. +Women +Picture a woman masturbating – may I, please? Chest glistening with sweat; mouth wide open and quivering; fingers furiously rubbing her clit, perhaps pinching a nipple; heels digging into the sheets, sliding back and forth; and at the moment the orgasm hits, her head is thrown back and an involuntary groan – so sweet and sexy – emerges from her mouth… +Enough about my nightly fantasies. From the women I’ve emailed with and spoken to, female masturbation appears to be on a whole different level than men’s. And naturally, women can orgasm again and again. Wonder what the thinking was on that design? If they let men do it, we’d overpopulate the world in two weeks? On one level, it doesn’t seem fair to me. On another level, it’s so incredibly hot that I don’t care. If I can watch a girl cum again and again, why do I need television? Oh I’m sorry, I forgot, I’m pretty much married. Still, I don’t mind cumming only once or twice if I can watch a horny woman cum over and over. It sounds like a fair trade-off to me. +The vagina, the clit, the anus, the nipples – women sure do have a lot of pleasure zones. And those are just the ones they can get to without a friend. But for a moment, let’s talk about woman’s best friend – the vibrator (and we’ll throw the dildo in for good measure.) +I’ve heard from more than one woman that men seem to be intimidated by vibrators. Wonder why that is? Do they fear being replaced by an appliance? I know that I don’t. When they make a vibrator with strong arms, soft lips, a tongue, experienced hands, penetrating eyes and teach it to talk dirty and appreciate women as much as I do, then I’ll begin to worry. For now, I feel confident that I can’t be replaced by anything with batteries, and I’d be happy for my lover to use one. Indeed, I’d encourage it. Anything to make the experience more rewarding. +You see, and this is a crucial point for both sexes to remember: masturbation does not replace sex, it makes you want it ever more! If you’re starving, does one bite of food satisfy you, or make you want more? I can honestly say that I do not know one man or women who, no matter how much they masturbate, wants sex any less. All it does is to help stifle the desperate need for release. For me, it makes me want the real thing even more. +It’s the same reason that men should welcome their women using a vibrator or any other kind of toy. Guys…I mean, hey GUYS…she’s a horny girl – you lucked out! Don’t complain, buddy -- rejoice. I’d rather have a lady who uses her vibrator whenever I’m not around than one who can take sex or leave it. Wouldn’t you? In short, if you can be replaced by a toy, don’t blame the toy. +For the purposes of this article, I’m often going to lump vibrator and dildo together into one category. Though there are differences, they essentially serve a similar purpose. Vibrators come in so many sizes, shapes and textures that it would require another article to discuss them all, and I’m really not qualified. Small, large, thick, thin, realistic, ridiculous, light vibration, jackhammer intensity, soft, hard, remote control, bullets, ticklers, rings, battery, electric, waterproof, ridged, white, black, clear, purple – I doubt there’s any segment of the market yet to be explored. +Most women I know have more than one vibrator, and some have a collection that’s downright impressive. And why not? You can get a vibrator for as low as $10, and probably go as high as hundreds of dollars. There are other good reasons for having more than one vibrator, and more than one type. You may want a thick dildo in your pussy, a powerful electric vibrator on your clit, and a thin, battery operated vibrator in your ass, all at the same time. If so, call me and I’ll grab my cock, my video camera and whatever else I can get my hands on and be right over. Uh, what I meant to say is, there are many methods and intensities of stimulation, and you have no reason not to experiment. +Most girls begin masturbating with their fingers before they move onto vibrators. So portable, the fingers; they go everywhere with you. It is at this stage where girls or women begin to tune-in to their body’s rhythms and find out what works best for them. Light rubbing, circular motions direct stimulation, indirect stimulation, anal stimulation or clitoral stimulation. Maybe all of this stimulation. Central to this stimulating topic is the fact that everyone has different pleasures. +Some women experience a series of small orgasms in sequence, while others reach a mountainous peek. Some have both. Many women delight in cumming over and over (this is where my male envy comes in) while others like a simple cum and go. +Controlling your orgasm during masturbation not only prolongs the pleasure, it allows you to master doing the same thing during real sex. How can you do this? First, of course, there is the tempo of your fingers on your clit. Most women, statistics suggest around 70 percent, cannot achieve orgasm from vaginal stimulation alone; they need direct clitoral stimulation. So obviously, rubbing your clit very fast will lead you to orgasm quicker, if that’s your goal. Varying the pace can make things more fun, though. You may go slow, fast, even stop at the brink – let the feeling subside – then begin again. +Watch your breathing and let your muscles relax. Breathing faster and tensing your muscles lead to quicker orgasms. Then there are Kegels. +Kegels, as you may have heard, exercise the pubococcygeal (PC) muscles. This group of muscles are commonly referred to as the pelvic floor and can be found stretching the length of your pubic bone to your tailbone. Many women practice kegels for purely sexual reasons. Since the muscle encircles the outside of the vagina, women who practice Kegels can often experience a stronger potential for orgasm, enhanced g-spot activity, and an increased sexual awareness. Some even claim they experience more intense orgasms or multiple orgasms once they begin performing the Kegels. (As a side benefit, performing the Kegels during intercourse provides a ""gripping"" sensation for your partner, helping enhance his orgasm. It’s like a hand gripping your cock, which, let me tell you, doesn’t suck.) +Exercising the PC muscles with kegels is not hard. Just tighten your muscles as though you are trying to stop the flow of urine. Hold for a count of five and relax. Do it a few times, until you build up to ten times. That’s all there is to it. +Masturbation is a wonderful new experience for many. Like a new toy that you never have to give back for the rest of your life. And it feels soooo good. There are few things in life more pleasurable. Again, experimentation is great when you start – great anytime, really – and it helps you discover what you like and don’t like, and what works. All of this can be done with your fingers, or your boyfriend or girlfriend’s fingers. Moving on to vibrators is the next logical step. +Little known fact: Right after ancient man discovered fire, they discovered masturbation and immediately after that, dildos, in the form of animal tusk. But once Edison invented electricity and batteries, his wife invented the vibrator because her husband was busy so much. She went through 3,000 batteries the first month. You won’t find this in many history books, though. The benefit of vibrators, of course, is that they offer a steady, adjustable stream of stimulation. Tongues only wish they could do this. +Me, I love to watch a women use a vibrator. I love to HELP a women use a vibrator. And I have. By placing the vibrator in different places, moving it up and down from anus to clit for instance, I’ve helped her find just the right spots. This way she knows just where to place it when she’s alone. Am I altruistic or what? Not totally. +By the way, who am I to predetermine what a women’s erogenous zones are? The vagina, the clit, the anus; those are obvious. But some women get turned on big-time by a vibrator on their nipples, between their breasts, on their neck. Always, If it feels good, do it. +Using a vibrator in your lovemaking with a partner is another great idea and more fun than free steak at the Outback. I once wrote a story about a girl with a vibrator in her pussy and a cock in her ass, who exploded in orgasm. Although the story is fiction, the action is not. The added stimulation of a vibrator, along with all the other sensory stimulation of sex, all at the same time, is like flooring the gas pedal. It just makes it hard to breathe – in a good way – with every nerve cell tingling. +A friend of mine beautifully describes her masturbation experience as follows: +“For me, it's the erotic touch…featherlight touch almost above the skin...slow exploration of a body and hard primal force all intertwined; and the tease that comes with both... Of course, when I'm getting myself off it usually includes a fantasy of some sort that got me started unless I just happened to need to get off, and the fantasy just comes during the action. Usually they include the more...taboo things you don't allow yourself…probably because there is a social stigma attached to masturbation as being something that's supposedly taboo. +But I disagree. I think it's totally natural, but I do like the naughty bit attached to it; ergo I indulge myself at will and fantasies abound. To really make myself come hard...it's a matter of stop and start rubbing my clit and working my Kegals in time…squeezing them tighter and tighter as the tingles build while I rub my clit almost to the point of no return then I stop all movement...and breathe...and wait for the wave to subside and start over very slowly rubbing my clit and then squeezing even slower.... feeling the muscles contract all the way into my body. Depending on how hard I want to cum I may do this three or four times. Sometimes I slip over that subtle edge, +I barely have control over and the orgasm comes which is somewhat of a disappointment...as it's not nearly as good as when I'm in control of it. Personally I think too many men explore the whole body in the first bit of 'wooing' but then they get into routine and go for the main prize and forget all the attachments that make a woman hot when you pay attention to them. Neck...shoulders...earlobes...thighs.... inner arms...too many things to mention. I agree about vibrators...both that they need not make any real man insecure, and they are a wonderful toy to enhance your play.” +As a man, I could never have put it more succinctly. Plus, wasn’t that damn hot? +The memorable point she made is that masturbation can be a full-body, romantic experience. Don’t simply rub your clit. As she writes: your neck, your face, your inner thighs, your breasts and stomach – explore them all with your hands, your vibrator, a feather – whatever gives you pleasure. +I hope I’ve given you some ideas, some fun and a good place to start or pick up from. Life is short – enjoy yourself whenever you can, even when you’re alone. If you have a minute, drop me a line of feedback. I always appreciate and enjoy hearing from those who are kind enough to read my stories.

This aspect of love making is very important in the sense of sustaining a good relationship with your lover. Any woman can put a cock in her mouth, but if she cannot do it in such a way that her lover is pleased, then what is the point? +When performing oral sex, you must always maintain eye contact. This is very sensual and your lover will be very turned on. Don't just look at him, make love to him with your eyes. This is very important and many women fail to do this. Ladies, I promise you, it will be as sexy to you as it is to him. Also, allow his to stand while you do this. That is very sexy having your strong lover stand there while you suck his cock...men love this. +Take your lover's cock firmly into your hand. While you are sucking it, stroking his cock at the same time is very arousing. Moving your head up and down, while your lips are firmly wrapped around his hard cock is pure ecstasy, but if you also stroke it as firmly as you are sucking it...he'll do anything you say. :)~ +Licking your lover's cock is as equally wonderful. Take your tongue, and from the very tip of his cock, run it down the length of his shaft, then back up again. Doing this over and over, while stroking and looking at him will drive him crazy. +Now, one thing many women tend to overlook are their lover's balls. Ladies, these are just in need of loving as his cock is. Do not be afraid to put them in your mouth. They are very delicious! While you are firmly stroking your lover's cock, take one of his balls in your mouth. Let it roll around, playing with it with your tongue. Do the other as well, you don't want it to feel left out. This will send him to another realm of ecstasy, I promise you that. +The clincher for performing oral sex is deep throating. Ladies, men love this and it is a great thing to feel. Imagine, your lover's big, hard cock jammed into the back of your throat. That is bliss ladies, pure bliss. To deep throat him, relax your neck muscles. Tensing up will not work. Let his cock glide all the way into your mouth. Once you have it completely in, make fast, sucking motions using your tongue and cheeks. Now, don't forget to massage his balls while you are doing this. If you can achieve this, he will be your playful little pet. +Finally, I realize that for some women this is a big turn off. But, in order to completely perform wonderful oral sex on your lover, you must allow him to cum in your mouth and you must swallow. The first couple of times it may seem very odd. But, I promise, the more you do it, the better it gets. After all, isn't that the prize for all of your hard work? But of course it is. +The ultimate goal of giving great oral sex is the fact that when you are done with him, it will be your turn. Don't be afraid to tell him what you want. If you want him to bite your clit, tell him. If you want him to probe you with his tongue, tell him. He can't read your mind. Many women tend to stay quiet, thus getting frustrated when the act is over. Now, who's fault is that? Ladies, if you want a fabulous orgasm, never hesitate in what it is that turns you on.

Once you've found a willing partner and while I've been told no at first I've not had one woman who has refused me. There is something that they find likable about it. Perhaps it is the attention that you pay to their titties. Perhaps it is seeing themselves with cum all over them. I think in a couple of cases for me especially early on in my career it was I don't want to get pregnant. Yes two girls in particular I can remember that they weren't on the pill. I've had some tell me that they have a climax, they get that excited. With the exception of one woman none of them had ever tried it before. The woman that did went into great detail of exactly what happed which made the tittie fucking even better. Never try it on a first date. You can and should suggest that this is something you'd like to try sometime that the thought of spraying their titties with cum is a turn on. Beyond that say nothing. You've planted the seed and got them to thinking. I've had women on the second date suggest to me that they would like to try it reinforcing what I said. +1\. Foreplay is a big key to the success of this. I spend a lot of attention to her breasts giving them a nice kneading, licking, sucking, cupping, and biting. A minimum of ten minutes. While I'm doing this I'm talking to her telling her how special her breasts are, how much they turn me on, what a special treat this is for me. While I'm doing this I'm either rubbing my cock against her pussy or I've already have put it inside her. My goal if possible is to make her climax while I hold back and wait. You're going to get some sort of response from her such as is there something wrong? To which you can respond with using her finger in her cleavage, or just whispering into her ear that you'd like to fuck them and cum all over them, that is why I'm holding back. She likely will not object. Once you move up and sit or straddle her stomach you can have oil ready to go on the night stand. Don't use too much! You can lovingly massage enough on her tits to make them more desirable or just squirt a small amount in her cleavage which is all you're really going to need. I've used scented lotion, olive oil, and baby oil. All of them work equally well. If you do use too much they'll be erotic looking but so slippery that your cock won't stay in her cleavage which gives you only one option; a hand job stroking your cock against the nipples and titty flesh until you explode. +2\. Smaller breasts are a bit more of a challenge and let's face it most women are in this category but it is still relatively easy to do. Some women with smaller breasts are a bit sensitive of the fact especially if they know you've been with a woman who has bigger titties than she does. Rather than using your entire cock show her how to squeeze them together and wrap her hands around them. You'll be concentrating on massaging the cock head only. You're up and down movement will still allow the head to pop out which is a turn on for many women. They like to see this especially as it becomes harder and more sensitive. At this point comments are in order such as I love fucking your titties, I could never get enough of this; do you like what I'm doing to your titties? Encourage her to talk dirty to you. Remember that she has already had her climax and is somewhat relaxed so she'll be more receptive to the talk. I know that for me when she says I want you to come all over my tits it turns me on even more. You can comment afterwards that you're not too small at all. Just look at all of the cum you generated. +3\. While you're sliding up and down your cock is very close to her mouth and you can ask her to suck on it while it is close to her lips, an additional turn on. As this is going on you can ask her if you should cum in her mouth or spray it all over her tits or give her a pearl necklace. I like to spray or hose them as it gives me the opportunity to spread the cum around with my cock especially concentrating on the nipples. This is also the time to say how nice they look with my cum all over them. Women like it when you pay attention to their bodies which will make it much easier for them the next time around. I've also if they agree, giving them a little bit in their mouth, just a taste and then finish cumming on their titties. +4\. Another technique that I've used successfully is while the heavy necking and petting is going on play them one of your favorite titty fucking video clips. Since I've enjoyed Christy Canyon over the years I usually put on one of her compilation films as she did it so many times with so many different people. There are a couple where she gets sprayed by two different guys one on each of her titties. This is something that you need to exercise a bit of caution with. Some women are just not into porn at all and showing a movie might completely turn them off. I've had women who will let you titty fuck them but no movie at all. Others who want to see the movie as it turns them on even more. An early titty fucking experience involved the use of a movie projector. We watched lying on the floor and then duplicated the titty fucking experience that we saw on the film. This was long before VHS had hit the market. I believe that the star of the film was Rene Bond. +5\. After you've finished be sure to tell her how sexy she looks with your cum all over her and offer to take a shower with her. This will give you the opportunity to soap and fondle her breasts once more. Again compliment her on her titties and how much you appreciated being able to fuck them. This will all go a long way when it comes to your next encounter. Believe me when I say this works. +6\. Something that I find quite erotic, a turn on and tasty is the use of what I call breast toppings. I casually mentioned it to one partner and to my surprise the following week she showed up with a tub of cool whip and a bottle of cherries. I've used chocolate, nuts, strawberries, and raspberries to name just a few. I've completely covered the breasts with whip cream and then took my time licking off most of it before I fucked the titties. Over the years I've got a modest collection of dessert toppings photography I've made on titties. Most women don't seem to mind this as much as there face is not photographed and you can't really see much except of course in your mind. +7\. I've played strip poker with the prize being a titty fuck. The poker is like a foreplay technique and I've had some partners take each piece off slowly to heighten the experience. Taking her bra off was really something special as she would slowly bring it down all the time talking. These are what you really want. Are you going to fuck them for me? Do you think my titties are the best ones you've licked, suck, and cum on? +8\. There are many different positions that you can try. She can sit on the edge of the bed, sitting on her, from the side, and her on top. I've also done it in the shower using body wash as a lubricant. +9\. It is important that you make sure that she is satisfied. Don't be afraid to ask her what you can do. If she wants to be fucked, licked, fondled, or massaged do whatever you can. I had one partner who never wanted me to come inside her so there were occasions that I was so horny that the tittie fuck consisted of one stroke the climax being a pearl necklace. +10\. Photography is something that you have to proceed very slowly with because many women are just not comfortable with that. Their afraid of course that someone might see the picture or in later years it somehow pops up on the internet and that of course can prove to be an embarrassment to them. I would never think of doing that but if you think that there is a chance that you might do it then don't. This is a type of hassle that none of us need in our life. Like the toppings pictures you can certainly not photograph the face but just the titties and the aftermath of cum all over them. +11\. She might be someone who is going to let you do it to her but she really doesn't want to and that being the case you'll be much better off if you decline and just have regular sex. Down the road this will be a plus for you because the next time she might feel slightly guilty and will willingly offer. Sometimes that okay is that it is new in the relationship and she doesn't want to lose you over it. If there is any doubt then just pass. +12\. Sometimes a hand job from her can be just as satisfying as a tittie fuck. Her hand especially if it is being rubbed on the flesh can be just as erotic. She is in control of the situation and many women prefer it that way. She is also going to make sure that she does it right and that you cum or it could be an embarrassment to her. The goal is for both of you to be satisfied and if you've done your part she is going to make sure that she does hers. +Hope some of these suggestions and ideas will help you in your goal of a good tittie fuck. Good luck." +50,The Art of Writing Smut,Boxlicker101,How To,2006-05-19,2006-05-19,2022-01-04 08:39:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-art-of-writing-smut,"It's not as easy as it looks, but is a lot of fun.","['Writing Advice', 'Writing Erotica']",4.41,"Writing smut, like any other kind of writing, takes a certain amount of skill and knowledge. Some writing skills are not required, such as establishing characters or plot development, because the only thing the dedicated readers of smut care about is graphic sex, and the more detailed it is, the better. Character is less important than the sizes of his cock and her tits. The plots consist of: A and B get together. They have sex. They have sex again, probably in a different way. They have sex another time, probably a third different way. Besides A and B, you can have C and D and E or any number of people, and they can have any number of sex acts, performed any number of times, depending on the length of the story. +I hope you notice I made no reference to fucking. Although it is an important part of smut, not every tale has to include fucking. Two men can take turns sucking each other off, or a man can eat a pussy for the entire length of the story, or a woman can do the eating. You might want to write about a man wanking or a woman frigging or two people masturbating each other or a whole string of people using dildos on each other or giving each other hand jobs of one kind or another. This is an area that involves individual preferences. Personally, I like writing about a variety of activities. +However, this is not as easy as it might sound. You could write: Mary sucked off Johnny. Johnny ate Mary's pussy. Johnny and Mary fucked. This would be a form of smut, of course, but of such abysmal quality that I'm sure that Literotica wouldn't even accept it, even if it happened to be 750 words long. I know I would never submit it but I might use it as a story outline. If I did, I would add details and dialogue until it was a 5,000 word story of the hot sex that Johnny and Mary had together. I will, hopefully be describing here how to convert those three sentences, or three similar sentences, into a 5,000 word story that will make people wet or hard, depending on gender. +As in any kind of writing, mechanical skills are important. For one thing, you have to spell correctly, and that requires more than Spellchecker. You can catch some misspellings and typos with the program but not all. If you type in something that is a word, but not the word you want, Spellchecker will not catch it. A smutty story does not have to read like an essay written by a professor of English but, as in any story, the writer should follow the rules of ordinary good grammar. Your computer will not catch all grammatical mistakes so careful editing for them and for spelling errors is necessary. +Also in common with any kind of writing, word selection is important. Avoid repeating names or words too often, especially long words. You can't completely avoid the repetition of articles and some pronouns but keep it to a minimum. Especially avoid starting a string of sentences with the same pronoun, such as: ""He unbuttoned...He removed...He looked...He caressed...He licked..."" Use proper names some of those times, or other references, such as ""the young man"" or ""the blonde"" or similar designations. Sometimes it might be better to combine two short sentences into a compound one or start some of them with prepositional phrases. One way to avoid using a proper name too often is letting the character have two names, such as Jen and Jennifer, and alternate using them. +Remember, you are writing smut, not a technical paper. Try to stay away from scientific terms such as penis, vulva, vagina, etc. Also avoid being cute with expressions like ""honey-bucket"" or ""trouser snake"" or old-fashioned terms like ""spend"" or ""cunny"" unless you are writing a story set in Victorian times. Although there are plenty of synonyms, I prefer to use what I consider the most affectionate words, ""pussy"" and ""cock"". This is also a matter of individual writers' preferences. +In writing smut, you don't absolutely have to have any dialogue, but it does read better if you do. You can say: ""Mary enjoyed the feel of Johnny's cock driving in and out of her pussy."" Or you can say: ""Oh, God, that feels good!' Mary cried out as Johnny's cock drove in and out of her pussy."" That's really two ways of saying the same thing but the second example is better for describing Mary's enjoyment. An important thing to remember is the characters are very involved with what they are doing. Any conversation will involve those activities, and they will talk the way actual people talk. In particular, this means using contractions and sentence fragments and otherwise not always using perfect grammar. +Have them talk dirty. This can be something of a turn-on for the readers and it reflects the way people actually talk in those circumstances. I can't imagine Mary or any other woman saying ""Your penis feels very good in my vagina."" More likely she will say ""I love your cock in my pussy."" Or ""cunt"", depending on how crude you want her to be. However crude or refined a character is, be consistent. Nobody is going to speak of her ""cunt"" and ""tits"" and refer to the man's ""penis"" or ""organ"". +Adults are not usually going to speak of a ""thingy"" or a ""poo-hole"" or use any other childish terms. An exception would be if at least one is roll-playing a child. Then they would use such terms to stay in character. Likewise, you could have a character refer prissily to a penis or vagina but, once they really get into the sex, talk about a cock or pussy. As long as you are consistent with the inconsistency, it's alright, and helps develop the character, making the story more believable. You don't need much character development but it can't do any harm. +Avoid too many short sentences. You should also avoid using sentences that are too long, and include too many clauses or too many prepositional phrases, because such sentences are sometimes hard to follow; the readers are liable to get lost reading them and they might give up and go on to something else, and it is quite possible they will avoid your work in the future, and maybe advise their friends and everybody else to do the same thing. Since you don't want this to happen, avoid sentences like that last one. Personally, at least in the narrative, I try to mix short sentences with longer ones. To me, the story seems to flow better when I combine sentences like that. +You don't need a lot of description of the characters, but you do need some. For readers to relate, they need to be able to picture the people involved in the story. The length and color of the woman's hair is usually enough, but sometimes curls or braids or other hair style might be mentioned if it somehow figures in the story. Information on the man's hair is not usually worth mentioning, although in some instances it might be. If eye color is relevant, mention it, otherwise describing a face as pretty or handsome or other general term is enough. An unusual facial feature, such as a big nose or ears might be mentioned, but only if it advances the story. +All the women in smutty stories have big, firm breasts. Besides being big, they are sumptuous or luscious or succulent or bouncy or similar adjectives, and have big, sensitive nipples that become erect when licked or fondled. Don't mention the exact size unless it has otherwise been made public, such as the woman having been in a beauty contest. Their actual size is of no importance anyhow, just as long as they are big. Besides having big breasts, they are generally sexy, although not spectacularly so. If you happen to be writing about a big, beautiful woman, make sure you emphasize the beauty of her face and how sexy the bigness makes her. Even though some people actually prefer the type, women in smutty stories should never have figures like Ally McBeal. +Her skin is always soft and smooth. It may be creamy white or a lovely soft brown or splashed with freckles or any other color, but it's always healthy and made for caressing. If licking her feet or fucking her insteps is part of the story, her feet are always soft and plump and completely lacking in corns or calluses. People who want to read about sucking toes or licking or fucking feet don't want to read about imperfections. +All women have pussies that produce lots of juices that have a delightful aroma, and taste even better than they smell. Her pussy lips are always swollen. Her clit is also swollen, so much so that it pushes its way out from under its protective hood. Whoever is eating her pussy devours her juices and declares how delicious they are, while she expresses what a thrill she is getting from that person's tongue and mouth. When she cums (or comes) it is a tumultuous occasion, with her ass bouncing up and down on the bed and her legs equally active, flexing or scissoring or oscillating. +The men in smutty stories are likewise excellent physical specimens, although falling short of being Mr. America contenders. They are never fat or skinny or bald or have bad breath or anything else disagreeable, unless they are up to no good, such as committing sexual harassment or something comparable. A man can be described as ""tall"" or maybe even ""well over six feet tall"" but his exact height is never given unless he is a basketball player or his exact height is meaningful for some other reason. +They are always virile enough to completely satisfy the other party. They always have big, hard cocks but the exact size is never given. ""Close to a foot long"" or ""so big her hand could only go half-way around it"" are about as much as you want to say about the size. When a man is sucked off, he always cums in the other person's mouth and he or she swallows it. Just like a woman's pussy juices, his semen is always delicious. +You may have noticed that I have been using quite a few adjectives. In the past, I have been criticized for using too many of them in my stories, and I have actually cut down somewhat. However, you cannot properly write smut without using numerous modifiers. You might be able to write other kinds of stories, even erotic stories, but not smut. These same critics also say ""Show, don't tell"" and I fully agree with the idea, but I believe you need adjectives to do that. Sometimes verbs can be used to good effect in describing a character. Instead of saying: ""Mary's pussy was dripping as she straddled Johnny's cock,"" say something like: ""As Mary straddled Johnny, pussy juices were trickling down her legs or dripping onto his cock."" +However, you can't always use verbs to describe a person or a body part. A cock might create an interesting bulge in a man's pants but once those pants have been removed, it is big and stiff. Even if you describe it as jutting or sticking out, you still need adjectives if you say any more about it. Furthermore, people don't just fondle breasts; they fondle succulent or luscious breasts. As I said earlier, cocks and pussies and breasts can't just be mentioned if you want to ""show"" them to readers. They have to be described, and this requires numerous adjectives. At the same time, a string of adjectives modifying a noun can just look silly. As in everything else, avoid excesses. +Adverbs have also gotten a bad press but they are necessary too. People don't just hold a woman's luscious breasts; they hold them gently. When Johnny thrusts his big cock into Mary's wet pussy or tight ass, he does so slowly and deeply. Like anything else, adverbs can be overdone but they are necessary in writing smut. Don't use them in dialogue tags, though, or your story will sound too much like an old word game called Tom Swifties. +Maybe most important, be realistic and detailed. The two ideas go together. Sometimes I will see a porno movie that includes a woman who is about to be fucked in the ass for the first time. The man will get behind her, rub some spit on his cock and give one big thrust. Like magic, all eight inches disappear inside her. That is never going to happen. For one thing, they would need plenty of artificial lubrication such as KY Jelly or baby oil or Aquaglide or something similar that will liquefy and not evaporate. Show how the lube is squirted into her ass, giving her a thrill, followed by the greater thrill of having a finger thrust deeply into her to spread it evenly. +For another thing, penetration could never be achieved that quickly. She has to hold her ass cheeks open and he has to wedge the head of his cock inside the tiny hole. After that, describe a series of thrusts, each going in farther than the preceding one, until ""his pubic hair is tickling the smooth skin inside her ass cheeks"". +Describe those thrusts in some detail. Show the readers how the man's cock plunges in deeper every time and let them hear her express extreme pleasure at the intrusion. Show how she continues to hold herself open and arches her back to help him drive his cock in farther. Show how she thrusts her ass back to meet him. Show them how the lubrication has liquefied and, even though Mary's ass is still tight, Johnny's cock slides in and out without friction, giving exquisite pleasure, approaching ecstasy, to both participants. +You can't show the readers, but you can tell them, how waves of bliss radiate out from her stretched opening and the channel that is being so delightfully filled. You can tell how pleasure is throbbing from his cock as her muscles squeeze its entire length. Once she is close to an orgasm, show how he massages her engorged clit and increases the pace, his balls slapping against her dripping pussy with every stroke, while she matches his greater speed, until she cums. +If he is fucking her pussy, no artificial lubrication will be needed because she will always be sopping wet with her own juices before they start. Even then, he will take several strokes before ""his pubic hair is brushing against her swollen pussy lips'. If she is on top, she will ""slowly lower her body and give a great cry of joy when the head of his cock wedges into her dripping pussy"". After that, she will ""impale herself on his hard shaft"" with a series of strokes until ""their pubic hair is mingling"". When two persons are fucking, whether in an ass or a pussy, the cock, either real or a strapon, always achieves maximum penetration, and be sure to let your readers know that explicitly. +Once the fucking is well underway, show how slow, deep strokes are used, to make it last as long as possible. Show how the person on the bottom, either male or female, responds to the person on top. Depending on the position they are using, show how his or her legs wrap around the other person's hips, and his or her arms clutch the other's shoulders. Describe how one participant thrusts up or back to meet the strokes of the other. If it's a man and a woman, she always cums first, followed almost immediately by him, unless you want her to be multi-orgasmic. One way or another, he always cums right after she does, whether it's her first time or her tenth. +If someone is eating a pussy, show the readers how that person's tongue caresses the swollen lips under his or her face. Show them how, as he or she continues, the responses of the woman being eaten become stronger and more pronounced. Her cooing or purring or sighing evolve into moans and whimpers of pleasure. Her movements go from squirming to writhing to thrashing on the bed, with her ass bouncing up and down as her pussy fucks into the face of the person doing the eating. The escalations continue until she starts to cum. Show this to your readers through vivid descriptions, which must include adjectives and adverbs. +When a cock is being sucked, show how the person doing the sucking loves the sensation of the round hardness going in and out between their lips. He or she will caress the entire length of the shaft with their tongue, reveling in the smooth and tightly stretched skin. If it is a woman who is doing the sucking, the cock will spend some time between her luscious breasts and/or being rubbed against her erect nipples. Either a man or woman will sometimes take the cock out of their mouth, lick around the ridge and the slit and smile at the man around the mushroom-shaped head. Describe this graphically and the readers will see themselves as one of the people involved. +Just as in real life, things shouldn't always go smoothly or perfectly. If Mrs. Robinson is seducing a young man, especially if it's his first time, there's a good chance he will ejaculate prematurely. When this happens she, through sucking, stroking and soft words, will coax his cock into another erection, so they can do some mutually satisfying fucking, or whatever she wants to do. If a cock slips out, as sometimes happen, the man and woman get it back in quickly. Similar minor mishaps occur every day, and the people involved cope with them, and so can the characters in your story. This doesn't make the tale more erotic or smutty but it does make it more like actual life. +I said to be realistic and then postulated hunky men and voluptuous women, all of whom are skilled and complete open in their sexuality. This may not seem realistic but there are such people. I also said that nothing should be done in excess and that includes realism. The average act of sexual intercourse is a short period of grunting and panting in the middle of the night until the man cums, followed by his rolling over and falling asleep. Nobody wants to read about that. They want to read about people who are attractive, but not too attractive, unless they know those people to be movie stars or super models. +When people read smut, they are looking to read about satisfying hot, sexy partners sexually, and being satisfied by them. Even if they are happily partnered, they want to read about somebody who is sexier and hotter than that partner, or otherwise better, even if only superficially. This applies to men or women, gay or straight. Smut is read by persons who want to fantasize, whether by individuals or by sexual partners who want to enhance their own activities. +There are few if any tangible rewards for writing smut. Literotica periodically has contests but they are rarely, if ever, won by writers of pure smut. The greatest reward I can hope for is receiving feedback and comments like this one from an anonymous reader about the incest story ""My Cute Nieces"": + **Thanks** + _12/02/05 by Anonymous_ +Thanks for this. You told it so well it was almost like I was lying back and enjoying this lovely pussy licking. I feel warm wet. Lovely writing. +Feedback and comments like this one are the reasons I write here. +* + _Thank you for reading this essay.

There are several things that are crucial in order for you to gain the most pleasure and enjoyment from this particular sex act, as well as keeping it safe and healthy for you. +The first and most important point regarding any ass play is CLEANLINESS. After all, we all know that the asshole is the least sanitary part of the human anatomy, being it is, literally, the avenue where all the waste from our bodies passes on to its final dumping ground!!! So use your simple common sense in being clean about your technique, or it can easily lead to the spreading of harmful germs and bacteria to other parts of the body. I highly recommend that both partners are squeaky clean before you begin, by bathing or showering prior to engaging in this activity. The use of a condom is absolutely necessary, unless you are the one and only exclusive sex partner with your lover -- even then it is not a bad idea to use one. Complete washing and bathing of the genitals of both people AFTER the act is completed is even more important. NEVER NEVER NEVER engage in any other sex acts, after having anal sex, without having completely cleansed your sex organs first!!! I cannot stress how very easy it is for you to get some kind of infection if you don't do so, particularly for you gals, OK??? +Once you are spanking clean and ready to begin your ass play session, there are two elements that, when combined, will highly contribute to your comfort, enjoyment and pleasure of this act. They are RELAXATION and LUBRICATION. To me, those are the secrets that will make engaging in anal sex a near-euphoric experience for the two of you! If either one of those elements is missing here, BOTH partners will be missing out on sharing what can be one of the most intensely erotic and exciting ways of making love to one another. Therefore, more than just a little bit of your standard sex foreplay is essential. +I find that starting out your session by giving your lady a lovely, long erotic massage is a fabulous way to accomplish both a state of being totally relaxed and being well lubricated at the same time. The guy should use gentle touching, kissing, licking, sucking and even a little bit of nibbling to stimulate his gal in any and all of her erogenous zones, focusing on the general area of her pussy mound and ass. +I strongly suggest keeping a tube of good, old-fashioned KY Jelly handy, and do not hesitate to use it liberally, if your lady is not prone to natural lubrication. There are many types of anal lubricants on the market specifically made for ass play. But I do not recommend them, since they contain a desensitizer called lidocaine, which dulls the nerve endings a bit for both partners --and feeling all of the fully pleasurable sensations that come from having a hard cock up my ass is what is it all about, as far as I am concerned!!! +One technique that worked well for me is when my lover actually ""scooped"" my wetness from my love hole with his finger, spreading it and smearing it all around my snatch and down my crack, and fingering my asshole with it slowly but thoroughly. This completely soaked and saturated me with my own juices, while his gentle finger massaging easily relaxed all of my ass-area muscles. He took his time and continued touching me in that manner for thirty minutes or more. Indeed, I was so relaxed and ready for him to fuck my ass, I was even unaware that he had stopped finger-fucking me there and already inserted his hard-as-steel rod!!! I had been lying there in a state of bliss with my eyes shut for quite some time when -- to my amazement – I looked up at him to find he was already fucking my ass with his cock, and I had no clue how long he had actually been inside of me! +Another important factor for the best kind of anal sex experience is, of course, BODY POSITIONS. And just like any sex act, there are a multitude of those, many of which are simply a matter of personal preference and choice. With most people, the good, old-fashioned doggy style position probably comes to mind first, when thinking about anal sex. My feeling is that you should experiment and try a lot of different positions until you find one or more that suit you both for comfort and in gaining the most sexual gratification you can garner from it. +Here is one that my lover and I found to be a wonderful way to make love when we are engaging in – what I affectionately call – our ASS PLAY: +I lay on my bed on my back with my legs spread wide apart and my knees comfortably raised. My lover sits on his knees between my legs, playing with my pussy, as I described above, in preparing to fuck my ass. Using slow, smooth strides, he takes each one of my feet in his hands, one at a time, and after massaging and kissing my toes a bit, he lifts my legs higher, placing one foot over each one of his shoulders, until my ass has actually been hoisted up off the bed, making me look somewhat like a wheelbarrow!!! This puts my ass in a great position for him to insert his hardness into my asshole ever so slowly and ever so gently -- in a downward motion – at an absolutely perfect angle. +After his stiff-as-steel cock has worked itself all the way inside my asshole, he will begin fucking me just a hair harder and deeper with each thrust. But extremely heavy and hard pumping away -- as is sometimes enjoyable for pussy fucking -- is not recommended for fucking up the ass, nor is it required to achieve an orgasm. Since the average asshole is generally much tighter than the standard snatch, a man will usually climax faster and more easily when he is fucking in this manner. And that kind of hard, heavy pressure could prove to be painful for the lady, as well as being damaging to that ever-so- sensitive area of her body. Just take it slow and easy the whole way thru, without ever hesitating to speak up upon feeling any discomfort. +So my guys, if you want to fuck your lady in this unique and often- thought- of-as-forbidden way; and my gals, if you are ready to experience a surprisingly erotic and enjoyable way of making love to your man – keep these words in your mind before you begin: CLEAN, COMFORTABLE, RELAXED, and WET!!! And above all else, remember to enjoy yourselves to the utmost, and have a lot of fun in doing it!!! +Love and kisses, Leslie" +52,Astrology 101,venuzian,How To,2007-12-15,2007-12-15,2022-01-04 08:26:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/astrology-101,Using the Zodiac to create vivid characters.,"['Astrology', 'Character Creation', 'Fiction', 'Fiction Writing', 'Plot Ideas', 'Story Ideas', 'The Zodiac', 'Writing']",4.05,"**Using the Zodiac to Create Vivid Characters** OK, OK I can hear you already that astrology stuff is a bunch of hooey.

Each sign of the zodiac describes the way we experience a particular kind of energy.

Our capacity for growth **Saturn** -Our degree of self discipline, integrity, and grounded-ness. **Uranus** -How we take chances, experiment and break rules and conventions **Neptune** -How we are inspired or can be deceived. Our level of spirituality. **Pluto** -Our ability to ""overcome,"" our depth of thinking and feeling, how we Might harm ourselves and others. + We make our fictional characters interesting by exaggeration, or making them larger than life. Using the archetypal or pure energies of the Zodiac can make for clear, consistent, vivid, easily identifiable characters and sharp contrast; but often at the risk of them seeming cartoon-ish. +So here's where it gets interesting: you can add a few subtle notes to your personalities by mixing and matching. Yes, all in one character. This happens to be the way we're all created. +So you could conceivably be a hot blooded Leo with a tender, romantic Pisces moon, have Mercury and Venus in picky Virgo, and mars in cool calculating Capricorn. It happens. The mixing, matching and overlap, is what makes us unique, gives us our strengths, colors, quirks, idiosyncrasies and personal demons. It's also the reason were able to get along at all. If we were all pure types, life on earth truly would be a living hell. + I won't bore you with any more details. My goal is to inspire you to do your own research. I've given you just the basics.

I'd say she was pretty much responsible for introducing baby boomers to the world of Astrology. She's did a brilliant job of putting ""flesh and blood"" on the signs of the zodiac. Many astrology books will only list the traits of each sign. + **WARNING:** you might want to have some allergy medicine handy. Her prose gets a little flowery at times; but she's definitely worth a sneeze or two. +As a doctor, farmer, scientist, or writer I believe there's a lot of comfort and even power, in being able to name a thing. In this case a particular kind of human energy. Once you've mastered knowledge of all the traits and developed a real feeling for the nature of each sign, you can use the Zodiac as your ""spice rack"" to create truly appetizing and believable characters. +Now I hope you're never able to write a story, read a book, watch TV, see a play or movie the same way ever again. +Write On!

However, this is very tedious to write, as you constantly need to open and close HTML tags, like `

I love it, I love reading about it and I love doing it. And I think it's quite possible for EVERYONE to love doing it! +The first step is to work your way up to it. I wouldn't suggest going into your first time of anal without having had at LEAST a finger back there. The best thing to do is get plenty of lube, have your lover put one finger in... work it back and forth a little to loosen things up. When you're ready let them know and they'll slide a second finger in. At any point that you feel like you need more lube, make sure you tell them! Personally, I like a little pain with my pleasure, but I do realize that not everyone feels that way. +My feeling is that the person who is taking it needs to be the one in control for the most part. While I do write stories where the guy just slides right in and it's all heavenly... I found this to not be true UNLESS you're used to anal. In which case it is QUITE heavenly. But, when you haven't done it in awhile (or ever before) make sure the person taking it is in control. This doesn't necessarily mean on top. I like it best in the doggy position, so what that means is that he stands behind me and I moved back and forth. +Go back until it hurts, move off it a little... go back again... hey doesn't feel so bad that time... hold it, move off, go back, starting to feel pretty good... push a little more in. Do this until it's all the way in. Reapply more lube if you need to during the process. And do try to make sure that you've had something in there before you stick his dick in, although fingers are not as long or as thick as a dick they help immensely. +When I first did anal, I found the doggy position to be too painful, there was something about the angle that just didn't quite work for me. He slid all the way in just fine, with all the lube, but then when he tried to move... oh MAN did it hurt! But it did loosen me up, so I had him lay on the bed and got into the usual ""Woman on Top"" position - but with a slight difference in hole. That was much easier, but it did start to hurt my legs after awhile. However, I found that once I had loosened up the first time, anal sex became easier and easier. We needed less and less lube, and he could sometimes take control of how far and how fast it was going at the beginning. All which I found very pleasurable. +Other ways you can work up to anal is by using buttplug. Start off with one of the ""small"" ones, later try a ""medium"" and after that you should be good to go - unless your man has the proportions of a porn star of course. When you take out the buttplug you'll still be open, wait too long before putting something else in and you will start to close up. That's the beauty of the ass though, it always returns to almost virginal proportions. But stretching it out does get easier with time, and the more it gets stretched (number of times) the easier it will be the next time around, even though it does shrink. +One thing to remember is that it is QUITE possible to really do some damage down there. Painful damage if you tear anything, and disgusting damage if you strain the sphincter muscles to the point where they won't close and you won't be able to control your bowels. The easiest way to avoid this? Take your time until your body is used to it. +Now, anal can be INCREDIBLY pleasurable. +If you're into things a little rough, you can use very little amounts of lube. In fact, you can use ""all natural"" lubes which involves a dip into a wet mouth or pussy and then just straight into the ass. This does hurt a little... but some of us like that! I have known people who don't even do that much, they like it to really hurt and go totally dry. Your ass while make some of its own lubricant - not as much as a pussy and not right away, but it will. +I do have to say, it is extremely unhygienic to go from the ass to anywhere else though. People DO do it, and enjoy it, but I have to admit it's not something I do and you will probably never see it in any of my stories. It's a good way to pass germs. My usual route: take a shower with him afterwards and then continue the fun! +Speaking of showers, that's a fun place to do it. Everything's wet and slippery so even less lube is needed, and there's just something very sexy and dirty about getting it up the ass while you're getting clean. *wink* +It is absolutely possible to orgasm during anal sex, in several different ways. First of all, you can actually have an anal orgasm, completely different and distinct from a clitoral or g-spot. Now, they're not easy to have - ie. I've experienced it once and I've been having anal for 4 years now - but it does happen. You can also have a g-spot orgasm during anal, because you'll be rubbing the g-spot from BEHIND. This does happen a little more often, especially depending on position, and it's an awful lot of fun. +Other fun ways to get off during anal include using a vibrator. If he objects, insist that he try it first. When he feels that vibe going in your pussy, right next to his dick in your ass, he will most likely stop objecting. I have it on direct commentary that it feels really good. It means that he's getting the vibrations at the same time you are. What's more fun that that? +Once you get into anal play there's other things you can do with it as well, such as putting a smaller vibrator in your ass while you're having regular sex, rimming, anal beads, buttplugs (various kinds can expand, vibrate and/or ejaculate), etc. There's an amazing variety of toys for the ass, many of which I'm dying to try out. What I can tell you works - and works well - are the expanding buttplugs, anal beads, vibrator in the ass, and regular buttplugs. +All in all, the ass is a lot of fun. +If anyone sees anything I missed, please leave it in a comment so that other people can benefit as well!

It's based on a fantastic idea -- and hey, fiction is all about the **idea** , right? It's totally original (and I mean _totally),_ with a great storyline, fantastic characters and really hot sex. So all you need to do is submit it to Literotica and the job's done. But -- OMG! -- they _reject_ it! You can't understand why anyone could fail to accept such a gem, especially for something as petty as, say, 'punctuation'; I mean, who cares about _that_ these days? Meh! So you decide you might need an editor to just fix this little problem so you can get past the nasty moderators and publish your erotic classic onto Literotica. +So you contact an editor -- let's say he goes under the handle of 'Bad Hobbit'; funny name, but whatever -- and (unlike almost every other editor you try to contact) he replies! But he seems like a grouchy kind of person. His profile is full of conditions, and so is his response to your request. He seems to feel that, before you submit a story, you should know something about writing, and do all sorts of boring stuff first -- like _checking your own story for mistakes, FFS!_ I mean, come on! Writing is all about getting your idea down, right? Then the editor can sort out the boring crap... +**** +So, change of PoV ('point of view'), which is not normally good practice in writing. (See below). +This is me, Bad Hobbit (aka Jack), sitting here, trying to get my own stories finished. But I happen to believe that if you want to write _well_ , you should also try editing. This helps you see problems with -- or clever techniques in -- other people's stories that you may not be noticing -- or applying -- in your own. It's also good to read work that others have written, and maybe collaborate with them if they're good. So, a while back I decided to volunteer as an editor on Literotica, and I got _loads_ of requests -- probably because none of the other supposed volunteer editors ever seems to feel the need to respond. (I know -- I've tried repeatedly to get someone to edit my stories, **with virtually no response whatsoever** \-- Literotica staff take note). +So having agreed to look at some of this work, I get sent stories that have stuff in them like this: + ** _""Amy and Lucy had been hiding in the kitchen, but from their drunken laugh I made sure they had a good time.Several times they had brought more alcohol and nuts. With each subsequent loading of the table, I felt Lucy's nipples swell more and more.""_** (At least 6 errors. I have a mental image of a foot-pump under the table, connected to Lucy's tits. The more you load the table, the more her nipples swell. Great idea for a TV challenge game!) +Or this: + ** _""With that I was lead to a smallish cell with a ben in it and that was that, apart from I still had a hard on from the anal probing...""_** (At least 7 errors. I'd certainly give the guy who wrote this an anal probing, possibly with a hot soldering iron). +Or this: + ** _""He backs you against the wall in your entryway, and starts kissing you again. Only kisses, some light touches, and lingering sensations that resonates throughout your body. It felt new, refreshing, like this time was special.He backs you up against a wall in your entryway.""_** (At least 6 errors and a wonderful potential _double-entendre_ ; is having a wall in your entryway a form of contraception, or like a chastity belt?) +Some would say ""surely it's an editor's job to correct little things like switches of tense, poor punctuation, repeated words, spelling mistakes, etc?"" Answer: **NO!** It's very, very time-consuming and boring as Hell. (I'm assuming that one of the big down-sides of Hell is that it will be mind- numbingly dull, but I'll have to wait and see when I'm consigned there by the people whose work I've criticized). ""But isn't that what editors are for?"" I hear some of you ask. ""No -- not necessarily to be consigned to Hell, but to do the dull bits that, like, anyone can do (dude) and allow the brilliant writer to explore and expand their fascinating ideas, unhindered by the shackles of petty things like grammar, spelling and punctuation?"" (Of course, it's only people with a vocabulary and the ability to write a coherent sentence who would say it that way). +Well -- again, **NO!** In fact, **absolutely not! Like, totally** **absolutely not, not, fucking NOT! It's YOUR job, you no-hope would-be writer! If you don't care about the quality and readability of your own work, why should I -- or any of your intended readers?** +I'm reliably informed (though I've never counted) that the English language has the largest number of words of any language in the World. It's the language of Shakespeare and Milton, Austen and Dickens, Hardy and Laurie Lee, Hemingway and Steinbeck, Tolkien and Mervyn Peake, Orwell and Huxley, Salman Rushdie, Gil Scott-Heron, Benjamin Zephaniah, Graham Swift and Jon McGregor. What do these writers have in common? They shape the language they use -- English -- to create something beautiful; not always _pretty_ , but often poetic, or evocative, or stark, or disturbing, or thought-provoking, or inspiring, or deeply emotional. So when someone writes something like: + ** _I'm looking at him, but his look is unwaveringly still. He didn't flinch at all even after hearing relationship between me and Alice._** + ** _""You didn't have to tell me about this phase of your life."", Justin, my lawyer said curiously._** +I feel as though I have to apologize to the English language for letting people mangle it like that. (BTW, I love that last 'sentence'. Depending on how you read it, there's a wonderful ambiguity about who Justin is, and I'm intrigued to know what was curious about the way the lawyer said it. Was it in a high-pitched whine, or a growly, Louisiana accent? I'll let you decide how many errors there are in those 3 'sentences'. It's not quite into double figures, but close). But I digress. +So here's something you budding writers should all take on board. I'll emphasize it, because it's really, really important: + **You, the writer, MUST be the first and most critical editor of your own work.** +Got that? Good -- I hope so, because every time I receive another half- finished pile of clumsy drivel, I'll get more and more abusive toward the self-styled 'writer'. We Brits have a picturesque word to describe something of poor quality: that word is 'shite'. It means exactly what you think it means, but sounds more polite. (My friends in the North East of England have an expression that means ""you're kidding me!"" It's ""hadaway and shite!"" which sounds to me like a firm of lawyers. I'm sure that in my dealings with the legal profession, I've met Mr. Shite on several occasions). +Yes, the role of the editor is to improve the work presented to them. They may point out that: the author has introduced some barely-credible plot twists; or there is too much exposition; or that certain character traits are not consistent; that some characters are under-used and should either be fleshed- out more or removed; that there may be unnoticed inconsistencies or anachronisms; or that the time-line doesn't work. An editor may make suggestions about pace, about the order in which events are related, or perhaps whether it might work better in first- or third-person. They may even find a few typos that the author has missed, some inadvertent lapses of tense or POV. +Yes, **some** editors -- I assume the type who also like to be locked in a dungeon, tied to a bench and then regularly beaten with a split tawse -- specifically advertise that they would be happy to correct spelling, grammar, punctuation and other basic errors. And sure, you can use these people if you like, assuming they're any good. They are the ones whose selfless service at this mind-numbing task will earn them points in Heaven. +But what about **you** , the writer? Is your ambition to be able to write about sex in a semi-literate manner and then just squeeze past the moderators. Or do you want people to read and rate your stories? Surely the main reason for getting published on Literotica is to find that people **like your work**. If it's barely-readable drivel -- and there is, sadly, a lot of that on the site -- then you'll just get ignored. So why not learn to be better? Why not improve your writing -- and your ratings -- by polishing your skills? +So IMHO, the author absolutely **must** be the first and most critical reviewer, and shouldn't release the story to an editor until it is in a good 'final draft' state, with all obvious errors removed. (Of course, if your name is Katie Price, David Beckham or Sean Hannity, these petty rules don't apply to you, as the editor will be paid handsomely -- or at least, paid -- to knock your self-obsessed pile of drivel into a best-seller. Or, if you're Hannity, the GOP will at least buy your book by the truckload to push it to the top of the best-sellers list). +So having got that off my chest, here are some things that you may actually find useful. + **Advice on approaching editors** +I've approached a load of volunteer editors on Literotica, and as I said earlier, most of them are a waste of time. ""Hey, isn't that just arrogant crap?"" I hear you ask. No -- because, in my experience, only one of the 'editors' on the site has EVER replied to a request, so sending them a carefully-crafted plea for help is literally a waste of time. Try as many as you like; from what I've seen, I'm the only editor on the site who bothers to reply to **every** request. Please DO tell me if you find one who regularly responds, as I'd like some of my own work edited. +But let's say you strike lucky with me or someone else. Before you send me -- or any other editor -- your story, it's important that you complete ALL of the following: + * Read this short guide, and make sure you haven't fallen into any of the numerous traps I've listed. If you realize you have, **fix these things first**. * Then **spell-check your story** & correct the **genuine** faults. Word's spell-checker isn't always right -- it has an annoying quirk about 'which' and 'that', and sometimes even 'there' and 'their' -- and it often misses some pretty-dire punctuation errors, but generally it will find the majority of real howlers, although it gets stuff wrong. (It wants me to change the contraction ""it's"" to the possessive ""its"" in the next sentence, which is bollocks). If you use Grammarly, good luck; I find it's right only about 50% of the time, which is about the same as Word's spelling & grammar checker. (I turned it on to check this document, and it wants me to change 'numerous traps' in the previous bullet to 'numerous trips'. It's also objecting to things like 'in tense' in the paragraph below, even though 'intense' would be stupid, and it has an obsession with what's called the 'Oxford comma', of which more below). I find Grammarly useful to remove redundant adverbs and adjectives -- words like 'really', which I tend to over-use -- but otherwise, it's pretty poor. * Next, read it through again **carefully** and weed out the type of errors that an editor will find on first reading. Repeated or missing words, poor punctuation and lapses in tense are horribly common. Getting a character's name wrong is another. One would-be author misspelled their main character's name 3 times in a 5-page story. I've even embarrassingly published something myself where I used the wrong character's name at one point. (I hurriedly corrected this when someone kindly pointed this out). * THEN, **put it away for a week** (at least), come back to it & read -- and correct -- it **again**. You'll be amazed at how much you missed the first time through. +If you've done **all of this** , then go ahead and write to me or another editor -- but take care over your request: I've rejected several because the would-be author didn't even bother to check the wording of their message before sending it to me, and it was choc-full o' typos. (If your introductory email shows carelessness, the chances are that your story will as well, and that's a huge turn-off for an editor). Tell me/them what you're looking for. Speaking personally, I reply to every request, and if that request seems literate and reasonable, I'll look at the story. (If it's clear you can't string a sentence together, I **will** decline). +It's really important to recognize that, in reviewing your work, **an editor is giving you many hours of their time** **for free**. As a business consultant, a client would typically be charged around the equivalent of $100-$200 an hour for my expertise, so for me to allocate (say) half a day of my time to looking at your masterpiece and providing constructive feedback, I'll be **giving you something worth well over $500 for nothing.** So don't fuck me around. +But what if you're unsure about how to get your story into good shape to start with? Well, in the following sections, I'll try to summarize a few simple techniques that have helped me -- and others -- write compelling stories. I have over 50 pieces on Literotica, almost all of which score around 4.5 or above. (But then, of course, they may just be wank-fodder; it's up to you to decide). My observations are based on what I've seen in the 40-odd submissions (some of them very odd) that have been sent to me. These points are not definitive rules -- I'm not a professor of English Literature, a creative- writing tutor or a professional editor or agent. However, I've written and/or edited around 1,000 business documents and at least 100 pieces of fiction, won a few prizes for my work and, most importantly, I've also **read** a lot of stuff by good writers. +I'm assuming that, as you're still reading this, your objective is to be a better writer, not just to get some half-finished rubbish past the Literotica moderators. (If that's genuinely your plan, kindly fuck off). What follows should be seen as almost a 'tick list' of things to do and things to avoid, rather than a real 'how-to-write guide'. There are some superb books out there on the basics of how to write (and also a lot of tedious shit that doesn't help). An excellent place to start is Stephen King's 'On Writing' -- the middle bit, where he gives some very helpful tips on basic writing techniques, not the first and third sections which are only of interest if you're a fan of Stephen King. His key recommendation is that you should 'read a lot and write a lot' if you want to be a writer -- excellent advice. Two other useful and entertaining books are 'The Elements of Eloquence' by Mark Forsyth and 'The Short Story Writer's Toolshed' by Della Galton. +I've also largely assumed that you'll be using Word or some other functionally-rich word-processor. For all its many faults -- and bugs -- Word is much more usable than Pages, so if you're using a Mac or iPad, try Office 365 or, if you want something for nothing, LibreOffice. You'll need a tool that at least has reasonable functionality that's **easily accessible** from the standard user interface. By this, I'd include things like styles and templates, a decent spelling & grammar checker, the ability to set the proofing language, a powerful track-changes capability and the ability to export into other formats. While Pages may have these features, I find them hard to access, as if Apple have hidden them away under layers of menus because no-one uses them. From my relatively-limited experience, Pages appears to have been created for people who want to write an occasional letter, but not for serious authors. A friend who is an Apple evangelist agrees -- and uses LibreOffice (though he also rates Grammarly, which I don't). I'm sure someone will tell me we're both wrong, so if you're happy with Pages, that's up to you. +So here goes: some important things you need to get right if you want to write decent -- or even indecent -- fiction. + **Punctuation** +I spend inordinate amounts of my time correcting other people's punctuation. Punctuation isn't that boring, pointless stuff that, like, only nerds are interested in, dude; it's the stuff that turns your otherwise-meaningless drivel into properly-structured and **comprehensible** English. Take this example. + _Where are you going sir joshua asked the old man with a fierce look in his eyes_ +This could be punctuated in at least 3 ways, with 3 completely different meanings: + _""Where are you going, sir?"" Joshua asked the old man with a fierce look in his eyes._ (Joshua is perhaps a child or is otherwise being deferential to the rather scary old man, possibly trying to help). + _""Where are you going, Sir Joshua?"" asked the old man_ _with a fierce look in his eyes._ (Sir Joshua is being stopped on the road and being asked for his destination, with possibly sinister intent). + _""Where are you going?"" Sir Joshua asked the old man, with a fierce look in his eyes._ (Sir Joshua is demanding of an old man, possibly a vagrant or peasant, where he is going, in a threatening and unfriendly manner). +Quite apart from the simple concept that you might actually want your reader to understand your story in the way you intended, if you can't punctuate, the Literotica moderators will kill you stone dead; they're **really** fussy about punctuation, especially in dialog. Any half-decent spell-checker will help you with the absolute basics -- though, as I said above, Word's spell-checker is far from perfect and (IMHO) Grammarly it gets it wrong at least as often as it gets it right. So here are a few simple rules you should follow: + * Firstly, commas are your friends, helping to give your sentences structure and meaning. **Try reading your story out loud. Every time you pause for meaning, to identify part of a list or, as here, to parenthesize, please ensure that there's a comma**. I probably over-use commas, but this is much better than massively under-using them, which is what I often find. Typically, you don't need a comma before 'joining words' like and, or and because, although there are exceptions -- mostly if the following text is a separate sub-clause -- but it can often be a matter of 'feel'. (Grammarly LOVES and insists upon the so-called 'Oxford comma' where, in a comma-separated list, you insert a comma before the 'and' or 'or' preceding the last item. I hate that, and most writers don't do it, but unfortunately you can't switch this off in Grammarly. It also sometimes insists you remove a 'parenthetical' comma before an 'and', where you've used commas to delineate an 'excursion' onto a different but related topic. It can be deeply irritating). * You should write in sentences, I keep telling people that they need to use periods but they won't listen, they keep using commas instead, it drives me mad. OK, so if you can't see what I just did, please, please don't ask me to edit for you. (Clue: the first four commas should all have been periods/full-stops). If you're starting to say something new, make sure you've used a period/full-stop and a space. **A sentence contains a verb and is complete in and of itself**. You can break the 'verb' rule occasionally if you know what you're doing, but don't push it or your story will sound jerky and disjoint. If you can write, it should just feel natural to apply full-stops/periods to make logical sentences. If it doesn't, PLEASE don't try writing -- or at least don't ask me to edit for you. * Why do people put a question mark/point in? and then continue as if nothing had happened. Or drop an exclamation point! into the middle of a sentence? Look, the rules for these punctuation marks are the same as for a period/full-stop. You ALWAYS start a new sentence afterward, with a capital letter. If that doesn't read right, your punctuation is in the wrong place. And please stop over-using exclamation marks/points! All the time! It drives me mad! MAD, d'you hear! Keep these little beasts to a minimum or you'll start sounding hysterical. And do make sure that a question really is a question. ""I wonder what he's thinking,"" is NOT a question; it's a statement of what YOU'RE thinking/wondering. Most questions begin with Kipling's six honest serving-men -- ""What and Why and When and How and Where and Who"" -- and end with a question mark/point. ""Who are you?"" ""Where are you going?"" ""How is this ever going to work?"" ""What is the point?"" ""Why would anyone vote for Donald Trump?"" ""When can I stop writing questions?"" * If you start a new theme or topic, or a digression away from what you were saying before, a new paragraph is required. As you'll see, I leave a blank line between paragraphs and I don't indent. This is how I write business documents, and I feel it improves readability. Others don't leave blank space but do indent, which is the style used in most novels -- probably because it saves paper. Whatever, DO break your text into clearly-differentiated paragraphs or you'll make it unreadable. * Beware more subtle punctuation, such as semicolons and colons. You need a really good feel for writing to use them successfully. If you know you're a novice in this respect, stick to commas & full-stops/periods. I touch briefly on these below, but check out the rules carefully on somewhere reliable like GrammarBook.com. (I've seen other sites that claim to tell you the rules and are utter shite). * Next, spacing. I've seen many pieces with random spacing, and it isn't pretty. Most punctuation is there to show the END of a phrase, clause, sentence, question or paragraph. Therefore spacing -- a SINGLE space OR a new line -- comes AFTER, NEVER BEFORE the punctuation, to separate it from the next bit of text. This applies to **just about everything** \-- a comma, semicolon, colon, full-stop/period, exclamation/question mark/point or **closing** quotes & parentheses. Got that? If it sounds complicated, just look at how I've punctuated this document, and the example below. * The only places where you need a space BEFORE punctuation is where it's STARTING something -- essentially just **opening** quotes & parentheses (brackets). And NEVER use two spaces together; I used to write business documents like that, but it's considered old-fashioned and publishers hate it. I've edited countless documents with random multiple spaces in them and it looks horrible. * If you use a dash (or, more correctly, an 'em-dash'), you need a space on either side of it. (More on this below). A hyphen joins two related words ('partly-finished', 'no-hoper'), and therefore DOESN'T have spaces around it. (If you find this confusing, again see the example, below). * American English also continues to use periods after abbreviations such as 'Mr.' and 'etc.' In the UK, we seem to have dropped these. Some blogs, sites and publishers are fussy about this, others not. * In American English, commas and full-stops/periods, etc, ALWAYS come INSIDE closing quotes, **regardless of whether this makes logical sense**. This is the **only** style of punctuation that Literotica will accept. So, my fellow Brits, if that's your intended publishing vehicle, forget what you were taught at school or in your creative writing classes; it's their way or the highway. + +Example: + _""This is an example of proper (American-style) punctuation,"" Jack said, with some feeling. ""I don't often find that people understand how to use commas, let alone semicolons. All too often, they either omit commas or, just as frequently, use a comma where there should be a full-stop. Not many seem to be able to work out when they have that in-between kind of pause that merits a semicolon; it's tricky, I know. If you don't have the knack, don't use a semicolon. And never, ever use semicolons to parenthesize. This is the job of commas -- or dashes, as here -- or actual brackets (as I'm using here).""_ +A good summary of punctuation rules can be found on the 'GrammarBook' site: +**The Apostrophe** +Dave Barry says that the purpose of the apostrophe is to warn you that there's an ""s"" coming at the end of the word. Whilst some folk seem to believe this (the worst example I've seen is ""A Skylark Sing's""), and market-stall holders across the UK regularly follow this approach, essentially the rule is **very simple**. There are **only two** **reasons** for using an apostrophe: + 1. To show possession. Not as in 'by evil spirits', but to indicate ownership; although ""Satan's budgerigar"" does sound intriguing. So phrases like ""Jack's guide to the apostrophe"", ""the girl's hair"", ""the black guy's cock"", ""the master's slave"", ""the town hall's clock tower"" all take an apostrophe because it is a thing (or person) belonging to someone or something. If you're indicating ownership and NOT using an apostrophe, you're almost certainly wrong. + 2. To imply a missing letter or letters, usually in what's called a ""contraction"" (see also below). So it's used in expressions like: ""it's"" (it is); ""isn't"" (is not); ""we're"" (we are); ""they've"" (they have); ""won't"" (will not); ""you'll"" (you will); ""I'm"" (I am); and particularly ""you're"" (you are -- please, please don't use ""your"" to mean this!) Sometimes apostrophes are used when colloquial words drop a letter, as in ""Don't You Worry 'bout a Thing"", ""Feelin' good"", ""five o'clock"", ""I only do it 'cause I love you"", ""Wow, that's fuckin' amazin'!"", etc. +There are then just three (minor) complications: + 1. If the object, objects or people **belong to** **more than one person or thing** , the apostrophe goes **after the ""s"" of the object, objects or people** **they belong to** **.** So ""the soldiers' rations"" (rations for more than one soldier), ""the racists' slogans"" (slogans used by multiple racists), ""the bankers' money"" (money belonging to -- or probably appropriated by -- more than one banker), etc. + 2. Some nouns are automatically plural, so ""the men's room"" is a room allocated to men, which is the plural of man. Likewise, ""the geese's wings"" are the wings belonging to more than one goose, as 'geese' is the plural of 'goose'. ""The cattle's owner"" is an interesting one; ""cattle"" is one possible plural of ""cow"", and in this instance, the _owner belongs to the cattle_. The People's Friend is a magazine in the UK -- the friend of the people (people being a plural). Equally ""the crowd's banners"" refers to the banners waved by a crowd, which is by its nature a plural. + 3. When we're talking possession, we're only ever referring to nouns. **Pronouns never, ever, EVER, take an apostrophe.** Got that? Because it's very, very important. ""Belonging to it"" is ""its"", **never, ever, ever** ""it's"", in the same way that we'd **never** write ""her's"", ""their's"" or ""hi's"". Likewise, **verbs NEVER take an apostrophe** ; hence my intense gag reaction on seeing ""A Skylark Sing's"", or more recently ""She mimic's what he said."" UGH! +Do you now understand that? The basic rule is very simple. The complications are pretty minor. Just practice, and read (and take notice of) what proper authors write. +Another place the apostrophe should NOT be used in modern English is when describing the plural of something known by an abbreviation, acronym, number or foreign word. Hence: + _The PC's keyboard wasn't working, but there were plenty more PCs -- and a few Macs and iPads -- in the workshop. But that big pile of CDs and DVDs that he'd bought way back in the 1990s was in the way. Oh well; first, he and his friend needed to finish their Mojitos._ +The keyboard **belonging to the PC** requires an apostrophe. The plurals of PC, CD, DVD, Mac and iPad -- and 1990 -- do not. In the UK, a garage may be offering MoTs, Marks & Spencer may be selling bras (not bra's), you may drink several Mojitos, (not Mojito's) or tequilas or Martinis, etc. While some of these words date back to the 1990s -- NOT the 1990's -- some go back to the Roaring Twenties (not the Twenty's). + **Hyphens and dashes** +Hyphens are essential where the two words are inter-dependent. You'll see them in phrases like 'crowd-pleaser', 'lion-tamer', 'self-confident' or just 'no- hoper'. Sometimes it doesn't matter if you leave out a hyphen -- but usually it does. For example, 'fruit flies like a banana' is different from 'fruit- flies like a banana'. 'A long felt want' could be a piece of clothing, rather like a scarf, whereas 'a long-felt want' is a desire that has been harbored for some time. (Note: don't put spaces around a hyphen. It _joins_ two words, and should be _joined to_ them). +Dashes are useful 'half pauses' -- I use them all the time. They can separate related statements -- as in the last sentence -- or to parenthesize, as I've just done. But be careful; a dash (or to be precise, an 'em-dash') doesn't appear on any standard keyboard, but is like this -- quite a long horizontal line. You only get a hyphen on a standard keyboard, so Word will create an em- dash automatically if you put a space before it, then a space **plus a word or character, followed by another space** , after it. (If you're using Word or LibreOffice, try this now. If you're using Pages, why? Give up now and use something that has some _easily-accessible_ functionality. You want to write, not spend half your time working through menus. You'll thank me for this advice later. BTW, Pages **doesn't** convert hyphens to em-dashes. Crap.) +Semicolons & colons are trickier. If in doubt, I'd go for a full-stop, or period as you may call it. It's safer than a comma, which always implies the briefest of pauses before continuing. A semicolon is a 'pause to think'; a short stop that joins two related phrases or clauses. (A clause contains a verb; a phrase doesn't). I like them and I tend to use them, as well as dashes, quite a lot. A colon has to be used with real care. I only use it: to start a list of bulleted items, or one separated by semicolons, where commas have to be used for other purposes; to help to list options; following something like 'Note', if I need to draw attention; or, as in this case, to illustrate the point. + **Contractions** +Contractions aren't just useful, they're essential. It's how we all speak, what we're brought up on. You'll have become accustomed to using them in speech, and you've doubtless used them when you're writing stories. I've mentioned this when describing apostrophes, and I'd be surprised if you haven't noticed by now how they've crept into multiple places in this paragraph already. Geddit? +In vernacular English -- how we speak on a day-to-day basis -- we use contractions almost constantly. Who says ""I am going to the sports bar,"" ""you have taken my keys,"" ""I will not vote for Donald Trump ever again,"" etc? No; you say ""I'm going to the sports bar,"" ""you've taken my keys,"" and ""I won't vote for Donald Trump ever again,"" if you have any sense. (That's all 3 phrases, not just the one about Trump). +So if this is what people actually **say** , why do so many people send me stories where characters waffle along with things like ""I have taken a Viagra pill"", ""you are the person I have been looking for"", (or ""these are not the droids you HAVE been looking for"") and ""we are about to seriously annoy this editor""? Contractions are not only natural speech -- what people **expect** to hear a character say, rather than the stilted, long form -- but they make the story slicker, giving it _flow_. +Contractions are essential, so use them! Don't let me see any more of this clunky ""we have come to see you because we have no understanding of how you are supposed to use a contraction."" Aliens might talk like that, but people no not -- sorry, people **don't.** + **Note:** when we make a contraction of (say) 'would have' or 'should have', the correct form is would've and should've. Some Brits write 'would of' and 'should of', and I've even seen this in newspapers. It's HORRIBLE and WRONG. Some expressions DO take 'of' -- I'm **tired of** seeing people writing 'should of', for example. However, other expressions take 'with', so you may be bored **with** me going on about this, but you must never be bored **of** it. (Even Grammarly picks this up!) + **Quotes and Dialog** +Here's an interesting question: should you use single or double quotes for dialog and to identify 'thoughts'? The answer's obvious, isn't it? Double quotes are used for speech, single quotes when conveying a character's inner thoughts. +Except -- not necessarily. If you're American, that's probably correct, but my fellow Brits, believe it or not (and many don't until they look), every work of fiction published in the UK since around WWII has used single quotes for dialog(ue). Check it now with whatever's on your shelves. (You do have shelves, don't you? And there are books on them? If not, go out right now and buy some!) When a friend for whom I was editing pointed this out, I was incredulous. But every British-published book I opened, including ones I'd inherited from my grandparents, parents and in-laws, all used single quotes if they were published after about 1942. (I guess there was a wartime shortage and quotes were rationed). My copy of 'The Lord of the Rings', Neville Shute's 'A Town Like Alice', and even a Kipling published in 1942 all had single quotes. Only a book given to a long-deceased relative as a school prize in 1918, an Aldous Huxley book from 1944 and one by Grimble from 1952 used double-quotes. +But several more recent **American-published** volumes -- Catch-22, a Dan Brown, some Dave Barry, etc -- use double-quotes. Most blogs follow American conventions and use double quotes, as I have in this document. Next time I get around to writing anything, if it contains dialog I'll use single quotes, then I'll try publishing it on Literotica and see what happens. If you're British, and your dialog(ue) is quoting other dialog(ue), THEN use double quotes, as in 'Do you know what she said to me? Bold as brass, she said ""I don't care if he _is_ married, I'm still going out with him."" What do you think of that?' And when you want to convey what someone is thinking, _this is best conveyed in italics_. If you're American, I guess you'd do the reverse. + **Tidying punctuation** +Before I submit a story to a competition or blog, including Literotica, I always do a global search-and-replace on typical careless or easily-overlooked errors. These include: + * If your target is an American blog or publisher, ensuring that all closing punctuation in dialog is inside, not outside the closing quotes -- and that there IS closing punctuation. Search for **"".** and **"",** and replace with **.""** and **,""**. I believe that Literotica has even objected topunctuation outside single quotes in at least one of my pieces, which often doesn't make sense; if I described myself as an 'unappreciated genius', the single quotes denote my (misplaced) opinion of myself, not a direct quote, so the comma should (correctly) be outside the single quotes. I haven't tested this recently, but you may find that your story is rejected for not having the comma **inside** the single quotes. * Making sure that all dashes are actually dashes and not Word's failure to convert the short hyphen into the longer dash. I do a global replace of "" - "" with "" -- "". If you miss out the spaces, it will change all of your genuine hyphens to dashes, which isn't what you want. You may have to copy & paste the dash symbol into the search & replace box or, in Word's search & replace facility, select the em-dash as a 'special' character. * Removing multiple spaces. Just globally replace with . Do this several times until it finds no instances, because you may have inadvertently added three or more spaces somewhere. + **Homonyms** +These are words that sound similar but mean very different things. A few examples: + * There (in that place), their (belonging to them) and they're (contraction of 'they are'). So ""I find them in their office. They're always in there."" * Your (belonging to you), you're (contraction of 'you are') -- and also yaw (a nautical term referring to the movement of a boat or plane). ""You're really annoying me with your misuse of 'your'."" People confusing these two get so far on my tits that they're suckling. * Principal (as an adjective, most important -- or as a noun, most important _person_ , or a sum of money invested) and principle (a fundamental truth, proposition or belief). So ""the college Principal explained the basic principles..."" * Compliment (say something nice about), complimentary (also meaning given free ""with our compliments"" -- because we're being nice to you) and complement (match, go with, complete or, as a noun, a complete set). So: ""I complimented her dress sense. I told her that her blue dress complemented her eyes"". ""As we were offering complimentary glasses of wine, a full complement of students turned up."" * Discreet (careful to keep something confidential) and discrete (individually separate and distinct). ""Whilst our goal may be global domination, we need to remain discreet about it, and accomplish it in a series of discrete and carefully-planned steps."" * Here (in this place) and hear (to detect something audible). Honestly, do I need to tell anyone this one? (Actually, I had one total fuckwit who claimed to be an editor of a hunting magazine -- he could kill innocent animals but not string a coherent sentence together -- who actually did this). * Queue (a line of people) and cue (a prompt or point when something is meant to happen, or a thing you play pool with). Thus: ""The pool player arrived on cue, walking past the queue of customers, carrying his cue."" * Too (excessive), to (towards, or a statement of intention), and two (a number). C'mon guys, _please_ don't make me correct this sort of rubbish. * Leant (as in 'was leaning on'), lent (allowed someone to borrow), and Lent (a period of fasting in the Christian faith). * Led (the past participle of the verb 'to lead') and lead (a metal, or the PRESENT tense form of the same verb). ""I lead my horse to water but he wouldn't drink"" is a switch between present tense and past tense that looks and sounds horrible. ""It was wrong to lead me on like that. And because you led me on, I'm going to hit you with this lead piping."" (Miss Scarlet to Colonel Mustard, in the Drawing Room). * Lose (to be unable to find something) and loose (not tight, or to release something). ""I'm going to loose my mind"" implies you have telekinetic powers. +There are countless others, but these are the ones I've encountered most frequently. I'm so, so tired of seeing things like ""glad your a happy girl"" (Tracey Emin), ""he lent on the back of the chair"", ""it's all getting to much for me,"" and other inexcusable shite. READ, FOR FUCK'S SAKE! See how published writers use this amazing language and don't ever, EVER write such ugly drivel EVER again. + **Tenses** +Tenses can seem complex things, especially as few of us were ever taught the rules of grammar in school when we learned English: unless, of course, we learned it as a foreign language. But if you learned French, German, Spanish, Russian or even Latin, you'll have been taught about things like the present, future, perfect, imperfect, future perfect, pluperfect and conditional tenses. If you were lucky enough to absorb any of that, try to apply it to your knowledge of English, which you doubtless picked up any-old-how from the time you were 2 or 3 years old. +I'm going to try to keep this as simple and basic as I can. I'm no English professor, and you're not here on an English grammar course, so if the stuff I say below seems sketchy, incomplete or just plain wrong, tell me. However, please recognize that I'm writing it principally for the many people whose work shows no grasp of tenses at all. Sure, it could be more rigorous, but I want to keep this to a page or two, not a whole textbook, or no-one will read it. (Probably no-one will read it anyway). +Present and future tenses are pretty obvious. In English, we typically use the auxiliary verb 'will' to denote the future tense. ""I will finish this story tomorrow"" (or, if you've read the bit about contractions, ""I'll finish this story tomorrow""). The alternative form is to use the present tense of the verb 'to be' with the phrase 'going to', as in ""She's going to visit London next week,"" or ""I'm going to eat my dinner when I've finished this paragraph"". This is pretty universal, though people get quite sloppy about it. We might say ""She's visiting London next week."" She hasn't set out yet, but her intention is to visit London. ""I'm having a drink later"" is a similarly-sloppy abbreviation of this. Note also the 'future perfect'; ""When you have collected enough stickers, you will have become a Jedi Master, Skywalker."" (I took the contractions out because Yoda is saying this. Note the ""will have"" -- describing a **completed state** that **will** be achieved in the future but isn't yet). I rarely find issues with writers' use of either the present or future tenses. Most people seem to get this. +Now, I've (unfortunately) read some stuff written in the first person, in **present** tense. ""I'm walking into the bedroom and there you are, lying on the bed. 'How did you get in', you say. 'Oh, I'm just wandering around randomly, and my writing reflects that,' I reply. 'Well, it doesn't make sense to me,' you say. 'Don't worry, the reader will figure it out,' I reply."" Some really good authors can pull this off. Unfortunately, I haven't encountered one yet while editing. So most fiction (that's any good) is written in the past tense, in first- or third-person, and this is where problems often arise. +If you're writing in first-person, then the narrator/protagonist (that's the character who is the main focus of your story), or if you're writing in third- person, 'the eye of God' (describing what happened as if viewed using a video camera on a drone which can often also read minds), usually describes something that **has happened,** rather than something that **is happening.** 'Vernacular' English -- the way we talk in everyday language -- is sloppy and much less strict than, say, French or Spanish. We tend not to distinguish (much) between the PERFECT tense, which describes a completed action in the past -- ""he drove to the station"" (on that specific occasion) -- from the IMPERFECT tense, which describes a continuous, repeated or habitual action in the past -- ""he drove to the station"" (every day). But as long as the author stays in the mode of narrating something that was in the past, they usually seem to get on fine. +The problems often start when the narrator or protagonist describes actions or memories that had been completed BEFORE the events being described. These will usually be in the PLUPERFECT tense, which describes an action that had been completed BEFORE the events currently being described were happening. So the PERFECT would be ""The Germans bombed the city of Coventry"", whereas the PLUPERFECT would be ""The Germans had bombed the city of Coventry the night before"" -- an action completed before the events currently being described. A lot of people get this wrong, simply describing everything in one of the past tenses, even when their characters are reporting (in the past) something they remember from further in the past. +The narrator may be remembering something that occurred before the events he or she is describing, such as: ""He had been walking along the road and had stopped by the baker's shop."" (Note: a single baker. If there were more than one baker, it would be ""the bakers' shop""). However, reported dialog happening at the time will mostly be in the PRESENT tense, & may include people talking about the FUTURE. So we might have: +""Hi. Are you enjoying your walk?"" I had asked. +(NOTE 'had asked', because it's an action that was in the past at the time the narrator is remembering it.) +""Yes. I'm heading up to the Post Office. I'm going to post a letter,"" he'd replied. +At the time -- which is in the past -- the walker is planning to do something in **their** future. As this is being remembered by the narrator, the letter will probably, by now, have been posted and delivered. But the narrator, who is talking from some time in the past, is remembering this exchange as having happened before the events being described. Yeah, it's complex. Welcome to English. +The occasional lapse here is excusable, but please, please don't pepper your past tense passages with lapses into the present tense. This gets very, very irritating, and destroys any sense of time. If your character is saying or thinking something at a time in the past, put it in quotes. + _They locked me in the room. I heard the key turn in the lock. Why am I here? What have I done to deserve this? If only I'd put all of that present-tense stuff in quotes, then perhaps they wouldn't be treating me this way._ +Alternatively: + _They locked me in the room. I heard the key turn in the lock. 'Why am I here? What have I done to deserve this?' I thought. If only I'd put all of that present-tense stuff in quotes, then perhaps they_ ** _wouldn't have been_** _treating me this way._ +That last bit doesn't have to be in quotes, as it's not thoughts or dialog. +I hope this is now clear -- or, at least, clearer. + **Repeated Words** +These come in two kinds: + * Basic typos where someone has had a mental aberration (it happens to all of us) and simply types the same word twice, or gets an edit wrong, leaving a duplicate word behind. ""I come across these errors errors all the time"". ""I will will get my contractions right eventually."" Or sometimes ""I'll will get my contractions right eventually,"" when you don't quite fix something with an edit. A good spell-checker (Word's is fairly good at this) will spot most of these for you, but a proper read-through should also pick them up. * Words or phrases that recur in the same or adjacent sentences. These are harder to spot, but those read-throughs are essential to pick them up. (Note that I've deliberately used 'pick them up' twice in close proximity to illustrate the point). Take a look at this: + _""...again wondered why I was here. Following Sister Clare out of the bedroom, we went back down the stairs, then along the hallway, but in the opposite direction to before. From here, we went through a larger brown door into another big room. To my surprise, there were lots of girls in here, as well as more grey and white Sisters, who were already sat around long tables, eating their meal. It seemed bright in here...""_ +I don't know about you, but the regular repetition of 'here' or 'in here' becomes jarring. With a paragraph like this, you need to go through, finding different ways of saying similar things -- or simply removing the unnecessary repetition. So it could be: + _""...again wondered why I was here. Following Sister Clare, we went back down the stairs, along the hallway in the opposite direction, then through a larger brown door into another big room. To my surprise, there were many girls, as well as more grey-and-white Sisters, already sat around long tables, eating their meal. It seemed brighter here...""_ +OK, so I cheated a little and removed not just the excess 'heres', but also a lot of other superfluous words. (I also hyphenated 'grey-and-white Sisters', as without the hyphens it could have a different meaning). Hopefully, you can see how to both get rid of annoying repetition and also tighten the narrative. A little later I'll touch on self-editing, which is not a crime against nature but an essential tool to improve the pace and flow of your work. + **'Person' and 'Point of View'** +I mentioned first-person and third-person points-of-view (PoV) earlier. First- person means that everything is described from the perspective of the person narrating: + _I was hurrying to catch the bus when I saw Mr. Reynolds, riding a water- buffalo. 'Hello', I said. 'Why are you riding a water-buffalo?'_ + _'Because it's quicker than walking,' he replied._ +Third-person narrative usually adopts the 'eye of God' perspective, looking down on and reporting the action: + _As the young major drove away, Frances could only fume. She summoned her housekeeper -- the one remaining member of her household staff -- and told her to make up the smallest bedroom for their visitor. She was damned if she would show any real hospitality to some crusty old colonel -- an American one at that -- who had been foisted on her._ +Now the interesting thing about third-person narrative is that, whilst observing 'external' events, it often tells us what one of the characters -- the main protagonist -- is thinking or feeling. (Hence the 'eye of God', or 'drone that can read minds' reference). More on this later. +Some people try to get either clever (like Salman Rushdie) or sloppy (like several people for whom I've edited) and use second person. For example: + _You arrive outside your house. It's dark, but you notice what seems to be a flashlight beam crossing the window. You get out and hurry to your front door. When you open it, you see Bad Hobbit, waiting inside. He asks you ""Why the fuck are you writing like this? It sounds horrible and forces you into some very difficult writing corners.""_ +This sounds to me like kids playing a make-believe game. Try writing a 20-page story like this and see just how much it sucks. You _could_ make it work, but I really wouldn't want to be the editor trying to sort it out when you'd finished. One of my examples near the start shows how this turns out at the hands of someone who doesn't know what they're doing. Don't do it. Just -- just don't. +So let's assume you stick with convention and go with either first- or third- person PoV, in past tense. Now, an important convention is to retain that PoV. _Everything_ should be described through the eyes of the main protagonist, in either form of narrative. In the first-person example above, if you then go on to say. _""Mr. Reynolds felt quite uncomfortable on the back of the buffalo, and he could smell the animal quite strongly,""_ I would quite reasonably ask ""how do you know?"" In first-person stories, _everything_ should be described _as observed by_ the person narrating it. You can say _""It seemed to me that Mr. Reynolds felt quite uncomfortable... His nose was wrinkled, as if the smell of the animal was unpleasant,""_ because this is how the narrator observes it. I've seen stories in which the narrator suddenly tells me how his girlfriend, or the dog, feels about something. As always, my response is ""how do you know?"" Don't do it. **Maintain a consistent PoV**. +With third-person narrative, it's still important to maintain consistency of PoV, and very poor practice to change it in the middle of a chapter. Even if it's the 'eye of God' describing what Laura is thinking as she's talking to Angelo, cutting to what Angelo is thinking in the same scene is clunky and amateurish. If you want to change PoV, do it in different chapters, or at least stick a line of asterisks across the page so you can show the reader the deliberate change. In 'Success' by Martin Amis, he tells the same story from the points of view of two stepbrothers, who describe the same events in very different ways. It's a device that works (very well) because he clearly signals the change of PoV in alternate chapters, and both descriptions are in first-person. In Sebastian Faulkes's 'Birdsong', he describes how multiple characters, in several different periods, interact with the story. But each chapter or section has a principal character whose thoughts and actions are described, and any other characters' thoughts or motivations are inferred by the main protagonist in each section. +It's much harder when you have a lot of characters, especially if there are scenes that don't include your main, focal, protagonist. In 'The Lord of the Rings', Tolkien gives himself quite a task, as he has a cast of thousands, and at least twenty main characters. The PoV is almost always that of the hobbits, whenever they're in the scene. He tries to keep the character of Aragorn aloof and 'kingly', so he's typically only observed by others -- again, usually the hobbits. Then, when the Fellowship is broken, and the hobbits disappear in opposite directions, Tolkien is forced to tell us what the trio of Aragorn, Legolas & Gimli are doing, so he selects Aragorn's PoV. This makes Aragorn more human, and undermines the 'aura' around this mysterious and noble character, which has its advantages and disadvantages. If it were me, I'd have told it from Gimli's PoV and kept the air of mystery around Aragorn that's present in the rest of the book. +But if you're writing a short story -- or even a novel -- with just two or three main characters, ensure that you describe everything _as observed by one main protagonist,_ regardless of whether you're using first- or third-person. If Angelo is sad, then Laura should observe (in first person) that he _looks_ or _seems_ sad. If it's in third person, you could say "" _Laura looked at Angelo. She'd never seen him look so unhappy.""_ But if you report that "" _Angelo felt heartbroken that Laura was going away,""_ I, and your readers, will ask ""How do you know?"" So make sure you retain that single PoV by looking at things only through the eyes of the main protagonist, whether you're using first- or third-person narrative. + **Anachronisms and local expressions** +Make sure that the language of your story matches its period and place. If it's set in the 1950s, don't have your characters saying ""no way!"" Expressions like ""24/7"", ""knee-jerk reaction"", ""thinking outside the box"", ""sussed"", ""and stuff"", ""made up"" (as in ""pleased""), ""gay"" (to mean homosexual), ""awesome"" and ""whatever"" (to mean 'I don't care'), ""bottled it"" (as in chickened-out of something) have all appeared in the last 50 years, and most in the last 10-20, so don't use them, even in narrative, if your story is set earlier. Expressions such as ""okay/OK"", ""I'd have to answer that with a no"", ""figure out"", etc, have no place in most historical fiction, unless it's very recent history. Conversely, using 'for' to mean 'because' or 'as' is archaic, and you won't find it much used in 20th or 21st Century contemporary literature. +Slang expressions and general usage also change a lot over time. If you're striving for authenticity, try to research and keep to the vernacular -- the everyday speech -- used at the time of the story. ""Fuck"" seems to be the one universal expletive today. It's used in almost every story, movie and on TV. (I'm surprised that there isn't a children's book called ""Where's my fucking cow?"") The standard American derogatory expression seems to be 'asshole', and to a large extent, these words have crept across the Atlantic and now pepper even French and German conversation -- in their English form. However, people swore much less in the past than they do today, and the swear words tended to be 'softer' and more colorful. In the UK even twenty or thirty years ago, words like bugger, sod, git, ponce and, of course, bloody and bleeding were in much more common usage. For those who didn't want to say something considered obscene, 'blimey', 'flipping' and 'damned' were used a lot. +If you're American and trying to write something based outside your native land or involving non-Americans, please be aware that English-speaking people outside the USA -- even as close as Canada -- don't always use American words or expressions. It may surprise you to know that there are many more non- American English speakers globally than those who use American spellings, expressions and slang. (My essay 'Local is as Local Does' offers further insights on this topic). Most Brits will know, from countless American TV and cinema imports, that American usage is quite different from British usage. +Sometimes the same word can mean two very different things, depending on which side of the Atlantic (or even Pacific) you're on. Words like 'fag' and 'fanny' can be hilariously misused, and in the UK, we're more likely to say 'bum' than 'butt'. Brits would say that something obviously wrong or untrue -- eg Trump suggesting injecting disinfectant -- was 'bollocks' rather than 'bullshit'. Brits know the American words associated with cars, but maybe Americans are less familiar with words like bumper, boot, bonnet, gear lever, tyre (with a 'y'), car park, petrol and windscreen. I often have trouble with simple expressions like '(a)round the block' and 'different from/to/than'. It's always a good idea to have the story edited by someone who is familiar with the place -- and time -- of your story before you try to publish. (Difficult if it's set in Mediaeval France). If I write something set in the US, I try to get it looked over by some friendly, capable American-based writers (typically good writers for whom I've edited) before I put it onto Literotica; it's saved me from several silly and embarrassing errors. +It's also important to be aware of things that have happened in society and to the story's setting since the time when it was set. Someone in Georgian London wouldn't look up at 'Big Ben', as the structure containing the bell called Big Ben -- the Elizabeth Tower, as it's currently called -- wasn't constructed until 1859. Most Victorians would never have crossed Tower Bridge, as it wasn't completed until 1894, and people in San Francisco couldn't have crossed the Golden Gate Bridge before 1937. Don't have someone watching ""Gone With the Wind"" before 1939, or a 'talkie' before 1927, discussing Darwin or natural selection before 1860 or black holes much before 1960. I saw a TV drama on the BBC, set in the early 1960s, in which a character said to another ""I saw you coming out of Embankment station"". He couldn't have done; up until September 1976, it was called _Charing Cross_ , and only became _Embankment_ when the merged _Strand_ and _Trafalgar Square_ stations were renamed _Charing Cross_. Cellphones only really started to become ubiquitous during the mid-1990s (though they were beginning to be used in business from around 1990 in the UK). Universal air travel probably began in the 1960s in Europe -- before then, only a wealthy elite could afford it. Many everyday diseases could prove fatal before WWII and the advent of antibiotics. (This is particularly true of sexually-transmitted infections and tuberculosis -- or consumption, as it used to be known). + **Writing sex scenes** +OK, now we get to the fun part! (Except, very often, we don't). +Sex scenes are not easy to write. They can be really hot and exciting, or they can clunk like a pebble in a hubcap. I've written sex scenes in over 50 short stories or chapters of longer pieces that have so far found their way onto Literotica, and probably in another 50 that are in various stages of development. Almost all of these have at least one sex scene -- often three or four -- and it can be tough to write something that many times and make it fresh and non-repetitive. There are only so many times a guy can stick his cock into a maximum of three holes in a woman, and only so many times he can lick a pussy or suck a nipple, before repetition creeps in. +Repeating yourself isn't the only trap. The vocabulary is also finite, so by the time you've used cock/dick/penis and pussy/cunt/vagina a few times, you really have run out of options. Of course, you could start using metaphors and euphemisms, BUT BEWARE: if you start to get too colorful, you're in very real danger of lurching into 'Purple Prose'. For example: + _With legs spread, the Queen's surprisingly-light weight settled onto his hips. The rigid length of Logan's desire lay between their bodies. A roll of her hips kissed his length with the first touch of her sex, warm and wet._ +Or: + _I withdrew my finger inducing a whimper from my needy muse, and bringing it to my mouth, relished the musky nectar_ +I don't know about you, but 'the rigid length of Logan's desire' doesn't do much for me, and it may not have done much for the Queen. I'm not sure about 'musky nectar' either. Purple Prose occurred a lot in semi-erotic fiction a few decades ago when words like 'fuck', 'cock' and 'pussy' were frowned upon by publishers. Yes, you can use metaphors and euphemisms for these words, but do so extremely sparingly, or they'll become unintentionally funny. Phrases like ""I was balls-deep inside her"" avoids both the need to use words like cock and pussy, which you've probably used a lot already, and stops you lurching into horrible things like ""my stalk was deeply embedded in her honeypot"", which kinda make me gag. +The other problem I've found with a number of authors is that, as they get into a sex scene, their sentences get shorter. And shorter. Sometimes only four words. Often only three. And no verb. They read. Jerkily. As if. The protagonists are. Short of. Breath. Sure, shorter, punchy sentences can improve the pace but, in many cases, the author doesn't really understand how to do this, so the effect can be unintentionally comic. Just try to keep the text _flowing_. Once you develop a real competence and feel for the way you describe something, then you can start playing with sentence length to get a particular effect. Frankly, with around 100 stories or long chapters under my belt, I still don't think I can always do this reliably. +Next -- realism. OK, I get that this is Literotica, so we're not going for a Nobel Prize for Literature here, but I try to keep my stories within the bounds of possibility. Yes, you can push those bounds if you're going for science fiction or erotic horror; there are some superbly wacky ideas that the brilliant Hollis Chester uses in his ""Captain Terdy's First Week"", which is still one of my favorite stories on Literotica. (Not only is the story inventive, fun and in places very funny, but the illustrations are some of the hottest I've seen on here, and he still keeps it believable). However, if your story is set in (say) present-day America, please try to be aware of the limits of the human body, male and female. If your hero has a 14-inch cock, don't have him spit on it and then ram it up a girl's ass; she's more likely to have a prolapse or a ruptured bowel than an orgasm. Don't have someone repeatedly have a long and complicated texting dialog _while they're fucking_ \-- I have actually seen this in a 'story' I was sent. (Try it, guys. I'm sure it's fun, though your partner may get a little pissed and you could struggle to keep your erection). Sure, guys _can_ come several times in a night, but rarely more than three or four and then only if they're young and/or have taken the appropriate drugs, and they usually need at least a short break between. Women usually only lactate for a period after they've given birth, and bearing a child will stretch a girl out of shape in a number of ways. Teenage girls with huge tits and an insatiable lust for hung older men are everywhere -- at least in stories on Literotica. I've not found too many myself in real life, but I do keep looking. +Then there's context and continuity. Where are your fuckers -- that's essentially what they are -- when you're describing them, how did they get there, and in what state? If the woman has pulled the top of her dress down to her waist so the guy can suck her nipples, does the dress come off over her legs or does it have to get pulled over her head? If the latter, the tit action will have to stop for a moment or two. Is she wearing heels? Do these come off before she gets onto the bed? If not, is there a risk that she'll injure him with them? (This has happened to me). If he's taken his pants off, where are his shoes? If she's not wearing a bra, make sure that he doesn't take one off her later in the scene. Or have her wearing a dress at the start of the scene and a blouse and skirt later on. Or have clothes scattered around, or put on afterward, that they weren't wearing at the start. (I've seen several instances of this type of continuity error). If they're drinking, please ensure they put the glasses down before they start having sex, or all that broken glass could cause a nasty injury. And if they're going for anal, at least try to make this credible; spitting on his cock and shoving it in only happens in porn movies where the girl has already filled her cavity with lube before they start shooting. +And think about how people generally react around sex. If I read a story where, on the first page, a girl starts quoting her measurements and those of her friends to me, I tend to switch off. In general, a woman may describe herself as 'skinny', or 'curvy', or 'busty', or maybe 'plump' or 'generously proportioned', but I've never met or corresponded with a woman who will say ""Hi, I'm Pandora, and I'm 48-24-38"". OK, most guys will have measured their dick at some stage, but generally girls don't ask ""So how long is your dick?"" They take a look, and it's either too big, too small or just right. Girls can refuse anal -- and even vaginal sex -- because a dick is just too big, or enjoy it specifically because the guy has a smaller one. Some women with small mouths can struggle to give a full blowjob to even an average-sized cock. And these aren't all disadvantages; you can use all of these elements in your story to give it some 'texture' and a sense of realism. In ""Mr. Big"", my hero has a cock the size of a baseball bat. Young, inexperienced women look at it and are terrified, but he eventually finds several willing partners from among older ladies who've experienced the dubious pleasures of childbirth. It also gives several opportunities for humor, which is something I like to do. +I try to populate my stories with plausibly-real people in believable situations doing things that are physically possible. Not all of the sex has to be good; in 'Uncle Bob', Stacey has a painful experience when she tries anal and isn't properly prepared. Many women can't come just from being fucked, and some can be hurt by a guy's clumsiness or over-enthusiasm. Guys lose erections or have trouble controlling their orgasms. Not all your characters have to be young or even good-looking; many of mine are the wrong side of 40, and some are substantially older. I'm currently working on a novel which involves a 'brothel for ladies', staffed with attractive young men. Some of the clients are in their sixties, and are of all shapes and sizes. If they weren't, the story would lose credibility and, as I said earlier, I like to write about things that _could_ happen, people you _could_ theoretically meet, and actions that are practically possible and realistic. So mix it up a little; a bit of realism may make your story more interesting. Most Literotica stories are sexual fantasy. Some are quite literally incredible -- as in 'impossible to believe'. Give yours a little texture and people might enjoy it more. + **Storyboarding, timelines and preparing to write** +OK, so I'm something of a 'pantser'. That doesn't mean that I think my work is total pants, as we say in the UK, meaning crap -- others may disagree -- but that I often write 'by the seat of my pants'; ie I often start with an idea and then let the narrative take me where it will. When you've written as much as I have, this can work for short stories, especially if you have a clear 'narrative arc' in your mind, as I usually do. However, for longer pieces, it can be a problem. My 'Uncle Bob' saga, that I started nine years ago, keeps bouncing around without ever really approaching the ending that's in my head, as I keep cramming in new ideas. I also discovered that, in my desire to explain Bob and Stacey's developing relationship, I'd forgotten that Stacey, a high-school senior, would have had a senior prom and a graduation ceremony somewhere in the period I describe. These are huge events in a teenager's life, but I never even mention them, so I now have to review my timelines (see below) and update a couple of earlier chapters already on Literotica if the story is to be believable. +The best way around this is to **storyboard**. This is standard practice with movies. All good novelists use the technique (see some of Graham Swift's work to observe a master of this technique at work), and the better professional speakers do it with presentations and lectures. It maps out the narrative arc and helps with the timeline. It's useful in keeping the content to a manageable level and preventing the temptation to cram in too much. It also helps avoid inconsistencies, manage different plot threads and to get to the end without wandering off into unhelpful literary side-alleys. +There are many IT-based tools that you can use that will help, but you can also storyboard on good old paper. Here's the basis of the technique. You can adapt it as you see fit. + * Note down on Post-Its all the key events/action points in your story (forget any background detail -- just the action & salient plot points) & lay them out in chronological order. Make sure that there's some indication of the (relative) dates of all of the key events. * Now look at the storyboard. Does the first bit look like it will grab the reader? If not, you probably need to tell your story in a slightly different order. It's often better if it isn't chronological. Start with some action that makes them want to read more. (For two great examples see James Clavell's 'Shogun' as an action thriller, and Judith Krantz's 'Scruples' as an erotic novel. Both open really well. Later on, Shogun gets a bit bogged down in period detail, but by then you're hooked and keep on reading anyway). * Now think about how you fill in the background to ensure your reader can follow it by WRITING AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE. Put the key facts, without which the story won't work, onto more Post-Its (maybe in a different color) & see where you might be able to 'dribble them out' between or (preferably) during key scenes. A few lines of good dialogue can often help to fill in a lot of background, especially when you're referring to historical events or places that are well-known. (But please avoid 'Dynasty-style' dialog like ""Hello, Horace, my long-lost one-legged cousin from Tasmania who was accused of murdering his father but was the victim of mistaken identity."" OK, so that was a bit extreme, but you get the idea). * It's a good idea to also rough-out character descriptions. I sometimes look for pictures on the Web that resemble my characters. I then have a clear idea of what they look like, so I don't start by describing Ethel as having short, brown hair, and then (maybe months later), write something in a later chapter about her long, blonde hair blowing in the wind. (It's very easy to forget the appearance of some of your minor characters). Also, think about what they're like as people, and sketch that in with a few important bullet points in your notes. If we meet Ronald at a BLM rally, and later see him wearing a red MAGA cap, unless this is intended as a real and deliberate change of mind for him, such personality inconsistencies will stick out to readers like the proverbial pump-action shotgun. * Also, try to give your characters distinctive names, not just in one story but across different stories. A lot of people from India have asked me to edit for them, which I find tricky; although I've visited that amazing country many times, the value systems are very different from those of the UK and the USA, so it's sometimes hard for me to make helpful suggestions. One author had three characters called Anupriya, Anulekha and Aaditya. See the problem? By three pages in, I was struggling to work out who was who. Another (very good) writer had a Latina called Connie in 2 different stories, and I wanted to know whether these were the same person and whether the stories were going to be linked; they weren't. So give your characters distinct names. I have a spreadsheet of as many male and female names as I can think of. Every time I need a character name, I check the spreadsheet and record which story the name was used in, and I then try not to use it anywhere else unless I'm trying to link stories. And I avoid having similar-sounding names, or even two names beginning with the same letter, in any story. * Once you have established a clear narrative flow that gets you believably from the beginning of your story to the end, without too many diversions, consider your timeline. Over what period does your story happen? Are there any annual events, or even major national or world events, that take place during this time-span? If you're setting your story in (say) 1940s India, there are a few minor intrusions -- World War 2, Gandhi's campaign, religious strife and slaughter, Partition, etc -- that you'll at least have to refer to. If it's set around the Millennium, failing to mention your characters' reactions to 9/11 might be seen as a rather glaring hole in the narrative. I didn't initially do a timeline for Uncle Bob. Then Bob was remembering something that happened three weeks earlier -- or was it four, or two? And, as I said, I forgot Stacey's senior prom and graduation. I now use a spreadsheet that lists the major plot events, chronologically, so I can refer back to them. When Stacey goes to college, I need to have left sufficient time between her graduation and this next event to make reasonable sense. * Once you have all of the above, think about chapters. Are you going to tell your tale as a straightforward linear narrative -- ie in chronological order -- or are you going to have flashbacks? (I sometimes have flashbacks when I'm reading some stories, to the time I did martial arts, and how I could use techniques I learned then to punish particularly lazy authors. But these aren't the flashbacks I mean). As I implied earlier, a good way to start a story is to throw the reader into some particularly tense or exciting scene, then go back and fill in a little of the back-story they need to make sense of the story. Chopping the timeline around can give you a more dynamic, interesting story -- but don't over-use it (as the author of ""A Skylark Sing's"" did) or it can make the story fragmented and hard to follow. Mostly this is a matter of feel. * It's also a really good idea to create an overall structural template you'll use for this and future work, setting up the default formatting styles you'll want to use. Start by creating or selecting your body text and heading styles -- fonts, sizes, indents, etc -- if you're not happy with the WP's defaults, and your proofing language. (If your story is set in the UK, Australia or India, say, 'English (USA)' is **not** appropriate, unless the main protagonist is American). Make sure your chapter heading style has an automatic page break before it and is recognized as a 'level 1 heading' style, so you can create a table of contents with it. (See below). You may want to save this as a named template (eg 'story.dotx') to re-use for future work. * Now create the skeleton of your new piece. Using the appropriate style, create chapter headings -- Chapter 1, 2, 3 will do for now -- and then add key plot points (maybe as bullet-points) under each one, together with the detail that needs to be explained at this point; essentially you're transferring your storyboard onto the computer. (If you're changing PoV to tell the story from different perspectives, note this as well so you know who needs to be talking). Now might also be a good time to create that table of contents. I find this really helpful in trying to maintain even-length chapters; otherwise, some chapters will finish after 5 pages and others drag on for 30, and I won't notice until it's harder to change. But don't try submitting a document with a TOC to Literotica, as it doesn't work for online content due to page-length variations. * Now you're ready to write your text. When you do, fill in each chapter (and obviously delete your initial notes once you've written those sections). Keep an eye on chapter length. Spell-check what you've written, read it through & correct, put it away for a week, read it through & correct again. But if you're serious about making it better, read the next section FIRST. + **Keep it punchy -- 'Show, don't tell' and self-editing** +A common error I come across is too much exposition. It's an easy trap to fall into, when you get grabbed by an idea or a theme, to go on and on describing what happens and fail to realize that you've lost your reader. Hopefully, on a critical read through, you'll spot where you simply ramble on, talking about things that are happening and using description rather than hints in dialog. +Try, whenever you can, to avoid long passages of ""this happened, then this, and after that, this happened again, and then that other thing, and then some more of that."" Sketching a few crucial experiences and some interactions in dialogue between characters can save pages of text. + _I'd counted nineteen floors. The numbers on the landing walls were lost in the thick, black smoke. We stopped, panting, sweat dripping down our faces under our masks._ + _""Half gone."" It was hard to hear Julie over the roar of the flames, just yards away. She tapped the gauge on her BA -- her Breathing Apparatus. My BA registered the same._ + _Two figures emerged from the smoke, towels wrapped around their faces, coughing. They looked on the brink of collapse._ + _So -- should we still try to climb four more floors with half our air left, looking for survivors, or help these people? Anyone we found would have to be carried, so could we help others down while also rescuing these two?_ + _A fireman's training doesn't give you a moral yardstick to help you decide who to save and who to abandon. You want to save everyone. Sometimes you just can't._ +This is based on something I read on the Web -- the first-hand story of a fireman and his (female) firefighting partner in Grenfell Tower in London in 2017, trying to rescue people from that appalling disaster. The original text was a verbatim, sequential description of events. I felt I didn't have to describe them getting the emergency call, seeing the fire and the chaos, putting on their breathing apparatus, carrying all of their heavy kit up 19 floors in thick smoke. Within 4 paragraphs I wanted to show the moral dilemma they had to face; whether they should follow their orders and go to the 23rd floor to look for survivors and thereby risk losing others and not getting out themselves. One carefully-chosen scene with a small selection of observations saves a page and a half of exposition and drops the reader straight into the action. Later, I slipped in tiny bits about the back-story, but the crucial part is to focus on what happened in the Tower and the impact it had on him, rather than a lot of preamble. +Most of us write too much. Stephen King says that, when you have what you consider to be a final draft, you should then seek to take out around 10%. Many of the stories I've read could usefully lose 25% -- including some of my own. One of my first short stories was a 6-page piece about a drug addict who imagines he sees a small child scratch herself on a dirty needle, rushes to take her to a hospital -- and in the process, saves himself. When I took it to a writers' group, one person said ""that's lovely. Now make it half as long and take out the Hollywood ending."" After editing, the piece was 'flash' fiction -- 1 page long. I'd lost over 80% of the unnecessary text, and the story was much better for it. +So BE RUTHLESS; leave out or take out stuff that doesn't add to the story -- it's just bulk. Use asides, brief observations, or small bits of dialog between characters, to tell the reader something they need to know without pages of 'this happened, then this, then that, and then this...' This is what writers call 'show, don't tell'. Long screeds of description or explanation -- 'exposition', as it's known -- slow the flow and can be tedious. Keep it tight and punchy, and use dialogue to fill in the background as briefly as possible. +I've written pieces for competitions where there is a strict word-count. This is great discipline -- on my 'final' edit, I go through, looking for flabby sentences and redundant detail and chopping it out. In most instances, you can cut down a sentence so that it uses fewer words to say the same thing. Or: most sentences can be shorter without losing meaning. Get what I'm saying? And I find it quite fun to go through, tightening up the work in this way, trying to meet the challenge of a word count. So try setting yourself a target -- 10% to 25% less than you currently have -- and then go for it; not with everything, as Literotica doesn't care how long your story is, but at least occasionally. It's great discipline and will improve your writing. + **Conclusion** +Writing isn't about 'the idea'; it's about how you develop that idea into a compelling story that someone wants to read. I've had literally hundreds of ideas for stories. A little over 50 pieces -- complete short stories and chapters of longer works -- are on Literotica. Maybe a hundred more are in development or have been published elsewhere. Some have remained 'in development' for 15 years. A story is no more about the idea than a painting is. You may have a great idea for a picture, but if you can't paint like Leonardo, Van Gogh or Picasso, it's not going to turn from that idea into a masterpiece. If you can't paint at all, it isn't going to turn into anything. +It's the same with writing. An idea, however great, is still just an idea until you can take that germ of a story and develop it into something interesting, fun, intriguing -- whatever. Above all, it has to be _readable_ or no one will _read_ it. +I've written this article to try to help people write better, and hopefully to save me hours of anguish in future editing tasks. It's a lot longer than I planned when I set out, so I should maybe have taken my own advice and edited it down. But I won't (at least not right now), because I want to get it out there so that people can start to learn from it and maybe give me some constructive feedback. +So good luck with your writing. The advice in here is really just the absolute basics. If you want to be a _good_ writer, follow Stephen King's advice -- 'read a lot, write a lot'. Just make sure that when you're writing, you don't slip back into any of the many problem areas I've covered here. +And if you need an editor, I make a point of responding to every request, so you only need to ask." +56,Basic Bulletin Board Posting Help,Mist S,How To,2005-02-24,2005-02-24,2022-01-04 08:26:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/basic-bulletin-board-posting-help,"All about signature lines avatars, post numbers, & links.","['Bulletin Board', 'Click', 'Control Panel', 'Html Tags', 'Link', 'Picture', 'Post', 'Signature']",4.56,"Ok, so you have just signed up to be able to post in the bulletin board. You go in there, find a place you want to say something, make a few posts perhaps, but then you notice things. Almost everyone has a picture under their names. There are pictures, links funny sayings and many other neat little bits under each of their posts. Wonder how they do it? This essay is intended to instruct you on how to accomplish these and many other things on the boards. +The first question many people ask, is how to get a picture under your name. First, you need to have 100 posts. Then, you find a picture you like, and resize it. If you have any sort of picture editor or a paint program on your computer, this is relatively simple. If you don’t, you can ask and someone from the boards and they will do it for you. The picture must be no bigger than 150 pixels by 150 pixels or approximately 2.08 inches square. Now, how to get it so everyone else can see it. Click on the user control panel tab also known as User CP. Then, click on the Edit Avatar link. From there, you can choose an image stored on a web page (copy the URL or address at the top of the page your picture is stored at and past it in where it says Enter Avatar URL) Or, you can upload it from your computer (Click on the browse button, find the picture from your files and double click on it) +Another commonly asked question is why I am a virgin!? I haven’t been a virgin for years! How do I fix this? The powers that be at Lit have given different numbers of posts different titles. To change your title, you need to post. Fairly simple right? Here is the list of post numbers and what you get for it; +1-29 - Virgin 30-99 - Experienced 100-299 - Really experienced 300-499 - Really Really Experienced 500-999 - Literotica Guru 1000+ - Custom Signature +Ok, ok, I can see the question forming in your mind. What is a custom signature, and how do I put one on? Well as aforementioned, you need at least 1000 posts. Then, you go to your user control panel, click on the Edit Signature link. After that, enter the title you want into the custom user title box. If you ever want to change this title, simply check the box reset title when you enter the new one. After that, simply click the save changes box and you’re done. +Now we move on to the signature line and the many things you can do in there. Back to the user control panel (of course, by now I am sure you’ve figured out that almost everything is done there right?) Click on the edit signature link and it will come up with a box that looks just like the ones you write posts in. Same principle, write what you want to say, then click the save signature button. +Now comes the more difficult stuff. Pictures in the signature line. This isn’t as easy as the avatar, because you will have to upload this onto the web or take it from an existing site to have a URL. To put a picture in, you will have to use HTML tags. Here is an example; +Put the URL of whatever picture you want where the * is in this example (keep the quotes intact though): + +Again, relatively straightforward, but it appears a little daunting the first time around. +To put a link into your signature, you have two options. You can either have the full link showing, or you can insert a line that says “my link” or whatever you would like. Both show up underlined, then a viewer can just click on the link and go there. To do this, click on your user control panel button, then edit signature. In your signature line, type (the * denotes the URL of the link you are using) then if you want the hidden link (with the sentence instead of the link itself) just type what you want to say followed by +A completed link would look like this; +This link is mine +This would show as This link is mine. +You can also place links in your posts using the same method. Another thing that many people like to do, is in a post, instead of having a link to a web picture, is to place the actual picture in the post itself. This also has to come from an existing website as a URL is required to make it work. This process used to be extremely difficult (I never managed to get one to work) but now, it is very simple. +When you are writing your post, click on the picture at the top of the posting space that looks a little like a postcard with mountains on it. This pops up a box that will do the HTML tags for you, all you have to do is copy and paste the URL into this space. If you want to do it the harder way, simply type [img]*[/img] (again, the asterisk denotes the URL you will use. +That should give you some of the basics, I hope it proves helpful." +57,Basic Massage Considerations,MaeveoSliabh,How To,2008-05-03,2008-05-03,2022-01-04 08:26:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/basic-massage-considerations,Advice on giving a relaxing massage.,"['Massage', 'Massage Therapy']",4.07,"This is a very general guide showcasing a few basic tips and techniques to give a relaxing massage. If you are interested in anything further, please seek out an accredited school for massage therapy. There are good schools in most areas that will be more than happy to have another student. +We will be covering a few topics that can change the entire face of the massage and will have an impact on the end effect. First is positioning of the recipient. This includes the environment. A quick chair massage on the corner of a busy street will have a different feel from an hour session in a darkened, quiet room. We will concentrate on the latter, as they tend to be both more relaxing and a bit more sensual. This is an erotica site, after all. The most relaxing environment for most people is actually fairly similar to what most consider to be romantic—a room with the harsh light blocked, perhaps with a low wattage lamp or a few candles burning, or with window shades and curtains drawn to mute the light of the outdoors. Temperature should be set at a level that's comfortable for a naked person without being too warm for you. It's very possible to literally work up a sweat if the temperature is just a degree or two too warm. Soft, soothing music or nature sounds can add to the overall effect. Another option is to set up outdoors, preferably in a screened area. A sudden mosquito attack has ruined more than one good massage. +It's also important to have a good working surface. This should be stable and hard enough to hold up to quite a bit of pressure without breaking, yet soft enough to be comfortable for the person being worked. My personal table has been tested for over 500 pounds of working pressure. Even weighing just over 100 pounds, I have been known to put nearly 300 pounds of pressure on a person. This in addition to their weight adds up quickly. Whatever surface you use should be sturdy enough to handle this. It should also be at a comfortable height. A good height for most people is at about crotch level. When the client lays down at that height, your hands will generally rest at just under waist level. Something in that general area will allow you to put downward pressure on a person fairly easily without having to bend and strain your back. The working surface should be covered. If your room is a bit cool, an electric blanket on a low setting covered by a sheet is a nice touch. Your client would lay on top of that, then be covered by another sheet and possibly a light blanket. +Once your area is set up, positioning your client is fairly simple. They should be between the layers of sheets and laying in a way that is comfortable to them. If on their stomach, it can be useful to tuck a pillow under their ankles. This provides support for the ankle joints, and will put less strain on them while you work on their calves and hamstrings. If on their back, tuck the pillow under their knees. This will keep strain off of their lower back, hips, and knees. They should be under at least one sheet, possibly more if the room is cool. It's better to have the inconvenience of having to fold back a sheet to keep them comfortable and warm than to have them chilly and unhappy. +Also take into consideration what type of lubricant would be best. There may be a reaction to certain types. For example, if the person you're working on is allergic to nuts, it would be best to avoid almond oil and lotions that contain nut bits. If they are prone to acne (or backne) it's better to use something a little less greasy and no oils whatsoever. I personally prefer to use either pure jojoba oil or a crème made by Massage FX. Both have a pleasant scent, and neither have caused any sort of reaction so far. No matter what kind of lubrication you decide upon, please remember that you are not greasing a pig. Use it sparingly. Enough oil or lotion to make your hands glide smoothly feels good. Swimming in puddles of the stuff does not. It's easier to add than it is to take away. +It feels better to the person you're working on if the oil is heated slightly before touching their body. A simple but effective approach is to squirt a small amount into your palm, then rub your hands together. It serves a dual purpose—to heat the oil and to lubricate your hands. This is important, as most of relaxation massage is a gliding stroke, not a rough pounding (tapotement) or kneading (petrissage). It's difficult for your hands to glide smoothly over the skin without proper lubrication, and the rough feel can be less than pleasant. +Your hands are your tools in massage. Each shape your hands make can be used as a different tool. The two that are easiest to use are the heel of your hand and a loose fist. These are fairly self explanatory. The heel of hand is an open hand, with the palm following directly behind the fingers. Turn your hand to lead with the side of your hand for another tool. If you fold your fingers in to the palm of your hand loosely and use the part of your fingers between the first and second knuckle, this is referred to as the loose fist. These are used to make broad strokes along the muscles. Each has a different feel, but does essentially the same thing. Another broad tool is often referred to as the 'double V' and consists of using both hands as one. Simply move your thumb out from your palm to form a V shape, then tuck the heel of your other hand into the space made. It's a natural motion for the second thumb to open out and lay against the pointer finger of the other hand, making the second V shape. +Any of these are good for your first stroke. It's better to start with either heel of hand or side of hand, however, as you can lay down one edge of the tool and roll the rest of your hand down onto the skin from there instead of slapping an open hand or fist onto the person you're working on. It's a little more pleasant for them. Any of these can be used either with or against the grain of the muscle, depending on how you would like the stroke to feel. It tends to be more relaxing to go with the muscle grain. +After the first few strokes it's important to find a nice working pressure. It should be comfortable both for you—no need to hurt your joints—and your client. I've found that most people are comfortable with a pressure that allows your hands to sink into their flesh slightly. If you were to push down and forward in a long stroke their skin and muscles would bulge slightly, or make a small 'hill' in front of your hand. Always ask to make sure this is comfortable for the person being worked on. Some people can not take that type of pressure for any number of reasons. +This is the time in which you should try to feel for any little bands or lumps that feel as if they should not be there. Some of them are pretty obvious, others are more subtle. One indication of a possible problem area is reddening of the skin, caused by increased blood flow to the area. When you run across an area that needs extra work it is necessary to judge the general size of it. Large bands are usually found in the lower back and legs. These can be worked out with the tools already explained used in a repetitive hand over hand motion. Simply concentrate on the lump or band of tissue. Smaller lumps and bands usually need a narrower tool such as a fingertip or thumb. The narrow tools go deeper into the tissue using the same amount of pressure, so a bit of extra care is needed when they are used. They can be used with the same tool- over-tool motion as the broad strokes, or can be concentrated in a smaller area using a circular motion, such as what you would do on the hands and feet. +Some precautions do have to be made. Ensure your pressure is all right. You don't want to bruise a person, or possibly cause a more serious injury, by pushing down too hard. There are also a few areas to avoid due to the way the human body is built. The area around the belly button, the front of the neck, the bend of the elbow, the armpit area, the bend of the knee, and the groin area should all be generally avoided. If you do go over these areas use a light touch to avoid injury. Most of these areas also contain lymph nodes, which can be hurt fairly easily. +From this point massage is more an exercise in learning what you like and what the person you're working on enjoys. Each person is different, and what is pleasurable can change from moment to moment. Use what you have, play, experiment, and have fun with it. You never know where a good rubdown might lead." +58,Basic Text Formatting 101,michchick98,How To,2008-05-11,2008-05-11,2022-01-04 08:26:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/basic-text-formatting-101,How to format your story for submission to Literotica.,[''],4.63,"After several disastrous attempts at submitting an .rtf file for my stories, I decided to start using basic HTML coding.

Unfortunately, some of these toys can be rather expensive. +For the Master or Mistress who is experienced, has been into the lifestyle for a lengthy time, or has embarked on a more professional attitude toward their lifestyle, good, quality ""weapons"" are a must. +But for those who are exploring, experimenting, or just don't have $200 to shell out for a flogger, there are alternatives. Being one who, in reality, has a teenager about to start college, a mortgage, a car payment, and all those other nasty realities that get in the way of our fantasy life, I most certainly am one who doesn't have extra money to invest in such toys. Ahhhhh but one day, I'll win the lottery and...OK wait. Let me step out of that fantasy land for a moment. +In the mean time, while I'm waiting on my lottery winnings to roll in, I've had to be creative and experiment, and learn to make do with what I have. Below are some tips on how to add to that toy bag without busting your checking account. +Nipple/Clit Clamps +Browse your local dollar store, or the dollar bin at the local quick mart. Clothespins are, of course, a perfect toy. A word of advice, however. If you're just starting to experiment, you might want stick with wooden clothespins rather than the plastic ones that have the ridged grips. At least until you're used to them. +Small jaw clips for your hair are easy to use and give a slightly different feel than clothespins. If you can find the pretty ones shaped like butterflies, or the like, those are fun to play with from time to time. +Another great example (I have several of these in my toy bag) are small plastic spring clamps. The handles look a bit like pliers, and they have just the right amount of ""bite"" to them without being too harsh. +Also, chopsticks and rubber bands are handy. Place a chopstick on each side of the nipple, and use the rubber bands to secure above and below the nipple. You can control how tight they are by how many times you wind the rubber band. Very nice effect. +Rope and other Restraints +Your local hardware store is a great place to find bondage toys. Browse the rope aisle. There are several kinds. My husband and I found this great thin rope at the hardware store that is just the right size for looping through wrist cuffs and ankle cuffs and tying me to the bed. They're also soft enough that if he happens to tie me directly with them, there's not a lot of rope burn. +We tend to stay away from anything that is nylon, or man made material. Too much friction and I bruise easily. +If you're really adventurous, on that very same aisle are several kinds of chain. Now I don't recommend the chain for binding someone, but if you're creative, it does have its uses. Hubby purchased a few yards of a small link chain to experiment with, and although it's not my favorite, he enjoys the look of it now and then, when he's in a ""photographer"" sort of mood. +If you take a trip to the mall, Spencer's has an interesting assortment of toys. We found a set of Velcro restraints that work perfect for us. They were quite reasonably priced. They hold me pretty well, but in an emergency, I *can* get myself out of them. I refuse to be bound with handcuffs. I made the mistake of reading ""Gerald's Game"". +Your local thrift store will always have a nice assortment of silk scarves that are also good for tying your love's hands, or feet, or blindfolding. My husband likes to use these for breath play, also. They tend not to leave marks on my neck like his fingers might. Let me just say that I do not recommend breath play for someone who's not experienced. Too much can go wrong if you don't know what you are doing. RESEARCH – do your homework before you ever enter into something like this. (Didn't mean to get preachy.. just want those who are new to BDSM to be careful). +Fetish / Play Wear / Costumes +Now, I can honestly say that I've never walked into my local thrift store and found leather bondage wear hanging on the rack. However, Hubby is into role play and costumes. So I am often at the thrift store looking for interesting items. Hubby has a thing for knife play and ""disposable clothing"". Most of the items I purchase are worn only once and then are trash. An example... recently I acquired a rather tacky bridesmaid dress from the thrift shop. I took it home, carefully removed the hideous ruffles from the basic dress, then cut it off just above the knees. When I was done, it made a pretty hot little dress for me to pretend I was a hooker he'd picked up on the street. I paid $4.00 for it, and he had the time of his life! +Use your imagination, listen to your partner's fantasies. You'll be amazed at what you come up with. +You're going to spank me with what? +Visit the dollar store again. Or the kitchen gadget section of any store. Need a good, sturdy paddle? Ever noticed those acrylic cutting boards with the handles? Or the wood ones? +Hubby's favorite item to spank me with is a hard, black nylon spatula. It's a nasty beast and I love it! Wooden spoons are great. +Feather dusters are another cheapo item that are lots of fun to play with, btw. Another cool toy we discovered is a tracing wheel, found in the quilting dept of the craft aisle, or fabric store. Gently ran across the skin, or once you've played with it a bit, a little more firmly, it can be quite interesting. +Whips and Floggers +Back to the beginning of my article. Those floggers and such can be quite expensive. I purchased one that wasn't expensive from an online site, and when I got it, I was quite disappointed with it. Sometimes you do get what you pay for. The problem I had with it was that the craftsmanship just totally sucked. I kept thinking about the different items I had seen, and what I wanted, and came up with an idea or two of my own. I experimented, and actually came up with one or two very practical solutions to my dilemma of not having a lot of money to spend. My first endeavor turned out much better than I thought it would, and is actually my favorite flogger even today. +I bought two chamois cloths and a set of bicycle handles at the local Wal- Mart. I think I spent about $20. I cut the chamois into inch wide strips, the length of the cloth. The bicycle handles were wide enough on one end, but the hole was too small on the other, so I carefully used a sharp utility knife and cut away some of the plastic until the hole was just big enough for me to work with. +Once I had the hole like I wanted it, I took some heavy gauge nylon string and an upholstery needle and sewed one end of the strips together. This took a little time, but once I had them secured together, I was able to drop the needle into the bicycle grip, and carefully pull the strips into the handle. Once I had them inside the grip, I used the nylon string to secure a looped handle onto the other side of the grip. Voila! My first flogger. +This one is soft, and thuds very nicely. It is great for warming up your submissive's skin, or just to tease him or her with. This one does not have much of a bite to it. But if you knot the ends of the strips, it does make it a little heavier. +My second attempt was quite different. I still had one of those bicycle grips I had purchased before, and my brain went into high gear one afternoon when I stumbled across a bicycle inner tube on the pantry shelf. Yep, you guessed it. I cut that rubber tube into strips just like I did with the chamois. Only this time, the strips are about a half inch wide, and forked at the end. I threaded it through the grip the same way as the chamois. +Now this one has a bite. I recommend you go easy with this one until you figure out how it feels. Hubby has actually drawn blood with this one. The last attempt I made at constructing an instrument of torture for Hubby to play with turned out to be the best, although the harshest item he owns, and sometimes, I dread him bringing this thing out, but he loves it (and secretly so do I, but don't tell him that). +The grip of this one is again made of a bicycle grip. This time however, I purchased a bag of suede strips that I cut to all the same length, then threaded into the handle again. I made a loop handle, and covered the outside of the bicycle grip with more leather strips to give it a better look. The lashes of this one are about 14"" long. +When I was finished with it, I tied five or six of those plastic ""pony"" beads on the ends of the strips – one to a strip. This hurts like hell. I only recommend the beads if you've got a true pain slut on your hands. If you're just experimenting DO NOT use the beads. Your mate will be screaming out safe words faster than you can blink. +I had enough material left over from this project that I made a smaller version of it. The lashes on this one are about 8"" in length, and just perfect for spanking the ass that you just happen to be fucking, without accidentally ripping an ear off or putting out an eye! +There are many more ideas and items out there. Use your imagination. Make it a special thing for you and your mate to go on a ""shopping"" trip. Make her go without panties, or wear something special just for you. By the time you leave the store, you'll be dying to go home and play! +Enjoy!" +60,BDSM,xelliebabex,How To,2013-03-29,2013-07-04,2022-01-04 08:26:12,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/bdsm-the-nature-of-consent,1. SSC vs RACK. 2. A light hearted guide to filling a kinky toybox on a budget.,"['Candles', 'Clamps', 'Pinwheels', 'Safety', 'Scarves', 'Toys']",4.52,"**BDSM: The nature of consent** +Safe, Sane, Consensual (SSC) +VS +Risk Aware Consensual Kink (RACK) +BDSM in some of its many forms has been around since time began, and Og found he enjoyed clubbing his woman on the head and dragging her around by the hair. It has evolved with each passing era into more of what we recognise today in the many facets of BDSM play. Most notably in history, during the Victorian times, BDSM games were indulged in frequently by the aristocracy. It was in this era that the Marquis De Sade, who indulged heavily in Sadism and wrote copiously on the subject of sadomasochism, came to prominence. Known by some as the father of BDSM he was of course a madman who kidnapped and tortured young women without their consent and was arrested for his deeds after several unfortunate deaths. Or was that just society's definition of insane at the time? Had the young women given consent would he still have been arrested? And could we believe that the consent once given was not coerced from the young women in direst times? +Despite his demise, and the questions that spring from that time, it was from this point on that those who recognised their need to dominate or submit came together in a burgeoning BDSM movement. Sadism and masochism were still seen to be mental illnesses so the people in these small communities were not exactly open about their practises. It was much later that these practises were deemed sane but remained largely underground as they were viewed with suspicion and reviled by the newly formed feminist societies. It could not be believed by mainstream society that sane people would consent to what was viewed as torture or being treated like an animal. +The growth in ownership of personal computers and the internet seemed to parallel the boom in BDSM participants and it would seem at the time, in order to make the lifestyle more palatable to the mainstream society, the term Safe Sane and Consensual (SSC) was coined. It is the basis of good practice within the lifestyle and the first thing any new player learns when entering into a BDSM relationship. To over simplify the notion it basically means that the players within BDSM may use whips and chains but they do it safely, with full knowledge of what they are doing and full knowing consent to the use of such devices. +Personally I don't believe that the average guy or girl on the street believe the mantra or understand what drives people to choose this lifestyle but rather turn a blind eye to anything they don't understand. I also have reservations about the Safe Sane and Consensual motto that gets trotted out whenever it is needed to reassure people who become concerned about a player. So let's look at it a bit deeper. +Safe: A standard dictionary tells us to be safe is to be _""secure from liability to harm, injury, danger, or risk""_ +So in a perfect SSC BDSM world a player would ensure any activity had no risk to it, and that all eventualities that might lead to injury, death or mental breakdown had been taken out of the equation. I don't think this perfect scenario was what they had in mind when they coined the term and the vagueness bothers me. +There are things I might do to make myself safe, but which would be unsafe to other people because of different tolerances and triggers. Not every kinky activity is safe. Slap and tickle? Sure. Handcuffs and light bondage? Go for it. Knife play? No way is that safe. The only thing we can do is to trust ourselves and our partners to be aware of the risks. If we want to limit BDSM to what is actually safe, a dominant couldn't do anything more extreme than flog somebody with a wet noodle. +Want to play with knives? Have fun if that's your kink. Want to do a suspension scene? Go right ahead and swing like a chandelier. Interested in wax play? Enjoy, make Madame Trousseau jealous. But be aware that these are not safe activities. They are dangerous. We, as risk aware human beings, need to accept and understand that danger, in order to take the precautions necessary to engage in these activities safely. +In this risk aware context, players see safe BDSM as taking care of their partner so that no matter how intense the scene may be, no unwanted injury or transfer of std occurs and that all precautions have been taken to minimize potential dangers. This means doing the research and being knowledgeable about your chosen kinky activities to protect your partner as well as yourself. +You can see where I am going with this right? There is risk in every thing we do in our daily lives but we measure that risk and decide for ourselves if it is worth continuing on. To me, jumping out of a plane hoping that the thin canvas sheet on my back opens and slows my fall is not safe. Yet it is widely accepted that I have calculated the risks and deemed it safe to hurl myself out of a perfectly good plane. Society agrees that it is a quite sane past time for the average person. Even the simple act of using condoms is not without risk, which is why it is technically called safer sex not safe sex. Living your life is about being Risk Aware and deciding what you will consent to and what you won't. +Sane: A standard dictionary tells us to be sane is to be _""of a healthy mind and free from psychological derangement""_ +This second part of the motto has always intrigued me the most. In the BDSM world though, this means that players act responsibly and exercise good judgment. The ability to engage in appropriate self control is a big part of the ""sane"" portion of this philosophy. If you cannot control yourself, you should not enter into a situation where power exchange is a key aspect of the activity. SSC advocates preach that all activities are monitored for the sanity of doing what is proposed. Whose definition of sane will we use to monitor said activities? Is there a single definition that doesn't need a psychologist to diagnose the insanity of an idea or a person? I knew I had a moment of insanity when I found myself hurtling toward the ground with a big rubber band attached to my ankles recently but it seems mainstream society would disagree with me as Bungee Jumping is a well accepted past time and no van arrived with a lovely white jacket to take me away once it was over. However, telling someone I love a good flogging from a dominant on the other hand causes those same people who had no problem with me throwing myself of a tower or out of a plane, to raise an eyebrow at me and ask, ""Are you insane?"" +Within BDSM, it would seem the sanity of what you are consenting to is inextricably woven around the safety of the activity you are involved in. Again I find myself frustrated by the vagueness of the SSC motto for those within the BDSM lifestyle. +Consent: A standard dictionary tells us that to consent is to _""give permission for something to happen or make an agreement to do something.""_ +This is unarguably at the crux of any sexual activity, kinky or otherwise. It is probably seen as more so important for the BDSM players because of the element of risk involved. There are no arguments for or against consent, it has to be there, without it the perpetrator has done nothing more than assault a victim and should be penalised accordingly. Having said that, consent given means nothing if the person is unaware of the risks involved in the activity they have consented to. Consent must go hand in hand with the awareness of the risk to ones mental and physical well being when undertaking a certain activity. +In a best case BDSM scenario the Dominant would tell the submissive what was about to occur. He or she would then outline all the risks involved, what precautions had been taken to make it as safe as possible and what would happen if things went horribly wrong. It could only be after this conversation had occurred and the submissive had been given the opportunity to ask questions and set limits that full and proper consent could be given because one person cannot decide what is safe or sane for another. +With many others feeling the way I do about the vagueness of the terms Safe and Sane a new motto emerged thanks to Gary Switch (2001) RACK: Risk Aware Consensual Kink. This mantra was rumoured to be first put forth on the TES mailing list in order to provide a more accurate guideline for the types of play that BDSM advocates engage in. This motto stems from the idea that every activity has a degree of danger to it and ""safe"" is best determined by the individual; what one person considers safe, another will not. RACK basically incorporates the idea that people can choose their own level of risk within an activity. +To explain I am going to use a quite an inane example, from Bea Amor (2008): + _A girl is told not to wear any underwear. The couple go out to a restaurant and sit down. Nothing is covering her as she sits down on a surface that could be infected with germs and bugs a plenty. I have never seen someone wipe down the chairs or wash the upholstery after every meal. How do you know what risks that girl is exposed to? Is it safe? Is it sane? Looking at it from the RACK perspective, one could say that yes the girl has been told to not wear underwear. The dominant could explain how there are risks and explain those to her. he or she could suggest ways of minimizing the risks, such as bringing a towel along that could be placed on the chair in an unobtrusive way, or the submissive could decide that the risks are too great and decide to not participate in that activity and to make it a hard limit._ +The difference between the two terms SSC and RACK can be made even clearer when they are applied to a public scene. When watching a scene that may involve some heavy risk you might hear the person next to you whisper to their partner ""they shouldn't do that...its unsafe...that is a dangerous Dominant"" you could be almost sure they were an advocate of SSC. If you had instead heard ""I wonder if he knows the risk involved in doing that....I wonder if he does ""this"" it could be made safer....I think I will tell him about it later after his scene"" you would have been listening to an advocate of RACK. +It would seem to me in recent years that the idea behind SSC has become one of you either are or you are not safe, sane and consensual. And that is completely relative. The intent of RACK is not what others think you should or shouldn't risk, but that of increasing awareness and making informed decisions on what you choose to risk. The difference is highlighted in how each term defines ""sane"" or ""safe"". SSC defines these terms separately and leaves them mildly vague and open to interpretation. It can be implied that what is considered ""safe"" and ""sane"" is based on common views of the community and society. +In contrast, R.A.C.K acknowledges the differences between individuals views of what is ""safe"" and encourages the individual players to choose for themselves what level of risk they wish to take. It allows more flexibility for those who wish to engage in play while under the influence of drugs or alcohol (Not that I support that in anyway which is my choice and a whole different debate about consent under the influence of mind altering substances) or certain types of play that have a significantly higher level of risk. +Both terms adequately put across the most important idea: that play should be engaged in by consenting parties who are knowledgeable and taking all precautions they deem necessary for the type of activity; the important intent is put across, the rest is semantics which can (and probably will) be debated at length +There are a lot of different philosophies when it comes to the guidelines for safe BDSM play, not just SSC and RACK. The biggest disasters in BDSM happen when the players involved do not have a clear understanding of who the other player is, if they are a trustworthy person, what that player's history is with BDSM, if they have experience with a chosen activity, and if they truly understand what they are consenting to. Being risk aware minimizes these disasters and is just more rational than believing someone plays by the rules just because they can rattle off the SSC motto at will, like a message of comfort and safety. But in the end both motto's basically boil down to the same message, consent only to what is right for you. + +" +61,Be A Better Boyfriend,Hawkeye802,How To,2014-07-17,2014-07-17,2022-01-04 08:26:14,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/be-a-better-boyfriend,How to not suck at being her boyfriend.,"['Boyfriend', 'Dating', 'Girlfriend', 'Relationship']",4.43,"So, you want to be a good boyfriend. Kudos. Good for you. Looks like you're in the right place. There are a couple quick disclaimers before we get started however. +1\. The author has no experience with another other type of relationship besides M/F exclusive, therefore this article will speak to the reader with the assumption that his is a male seeking, or engaged in a one on one relationship with a woman. However, this article may or may not be applicable to other types, therefore use your own judgment if the above description does not fit your relationship. +2\. The author does not suggest that these points will save or correct an otherwise broken relationship. Neither are they the sole determiners or a good relationship. They are merely suggestions, and are not the be all end all of relationship advice. +3\. Just because the title says ""being her boyfriend"" does not necessarily mean that dating or other forms of an intimate relationship are excluded. The points laid out in the article; however, will most likely be expected from a boyfriend, whereas they may not be from a guy she is casually dating. +4\. What works for some will not for others, so take everything with a grain of salt. +5\. No two women think the same about relationships. Never forget that. +Now that that's out of the way, let's get started. +1.0 Involved +When I say ""Involved"" I mean get interested in her and her life. You want her to be interested in you and your life don't you? Relationships aren't one way streets. Being engaged and interested with what she does is an absolutely crucial element of having a successful relationship. If you choose to apply any of the advice in this article; do this above anything else. +It makes sense deep down doesn't it? Think about it. You're on a sports team. She comes out to see you play. (Whether this scenario has happened, or if it is completely in your imagination, the hypothetical is still accurate.) Having her there to support you is a truly great feeling. You love her for doing it, because it means that she cares about you and your life. What you do and who you are is important to her. So why should that only go one way? +Make an effort to be involved with her life! Support her activities/dreams/goals/ambitions. +Is she in a singing group? Go to a performance or two. Does she volunteer for a community service or church group? Go to one of the events, or better yet, ask if she thinks there is room for another volunteer. Does she read poems at an open mic night? Offer to be a sounding board for her drafts. +Now, there is a limit. It's called ""not being clingy."" +Unless you have a joint consensus that doing all the same activities and attending all the same events is acceptable, don't do it. If you are constantly with her by doing the things she does, going to her activities, or just generally being around her all the time, you are approaching a level of clingy similar to that of a stalker. You're her boyfriend, not her stalker. Get it straight. +Of course there is an exception to this exception. I have known many couples who are constantly together and do all the same activities, and it works for them. Great. I'm happy for them. This is not always the case however, and to start ""getting involved with her life"" by being by her side 24/7 without knowing to what extent she enjoys having you be involved could actually damage the relationship. Take it easy, start out slow. Be with her for some, but not all of the things she does. If she reacts positively, step it up a little. Always remember, when in doubt, just ask her. It's that simple. Just say; ""Hey, do you want me to come with you to (insert activity/event here)?"" +2.0 Conduct +How you comport yourself in a relationship is extremely important. Your actions set you apart from other guys, and poor behavior gets you negative brownie points in her mind. Just like you would get reprimands at work for misconduct, your girlfriend is only going to give you so many chances to act properly. She's picked you above many others. She could just as easily go back to the drawing board and choose someone else, so don't be an idiot and throw away the good thing you've got. +When I say ""act properly,"" I don't mean change the way you are as a person. Don't go from being the jock she loves to party with, to some posh, quasi- aristocratic stick in the mud. Be yourself, but at the same time if you look at successful relationships there is a distinct pattern of behaviors that the boyfriends/fiances/husbands do to keep the relationship healthy. +2.1 Dates - Go on them. +Now lets talk about dates. Dates by my own definition and in this context are periods of quality time spent with your significant other. This does not necessarily mean that it has to be solely with your girlfriend, as double dates can count as dates as well. Similarly, ""quality time"" does not strictly mean going out to a swank establishment, eating escargot and sipping Charonnay while watching a dramatic reading of The Tempest. Quality time has different meanings for everyone. Some couples may absolutely love the aforementioned date, but I'm guessing that the majority would not. Quality time could therefore mean having a video game marathon, complete with pizza and soda, while sitting in jammies on the living room floor. As long as you both are having a good time doing something together, it counts as quality time. Just remember that it should be the two of you alone, more often than it is the two of you with company. +The distinction between a lazy night in and a date is sometimes blurry. While one couple may love to go out on the town every night and thereby understand ""date night"" to mean an activity out in public, another couple may absolutely hate public dates and be most comfortable staying home. What is most important to consider when planning a date is the following: +Have we done this before? If so consider a different activity. If every date night is a movie on the couch with popcorn, she will start to wonder if you are agoraphobic, or you just don't have the imaginative capacity to plan a fun date. +Will she enjoy it? Face it, not all girls want to go paint-balling. Find something mutually enjoyable but tending to lean towards something she enjoys. Absolutely don't do something that only you enjoy. Paintball could be a perfect example of that. +Is it within my means? If she is worried about how much you spent, she won't have time to relax and enjoy herself. +Is this date its own event, or are am just bringing her to a friend's party I was already invited to and trying to pass it off as an intimate date? If so, rethink your strategy. Parties are fine, but they aren't really meant for one on one time. Also a date should be a date in its own rite, not just a convenient tack on. +Can this date begin and end in less than 24 hours? Extended activities together is awesome, but don't forget; those are called vacations, not dates. Keep it simple. +2.2 Chivalry - It's not dead yet. +While it may be an outdated set of idealized behavior stemming from the medieval patriarchy's obsession with protecting the more ""delicate"" sex, the truth of the matter is that most women still expect and appreciate it. +This does not mean that you are obliged to throw down your coat to cover a puddle when she goes to walk through it, or hold every door, but there are some behaviors that are still an absolute must. +Open doors for her. This doesn't necessarily mean you always have to open a door, step aside, and allow her to walk though it first. Sometimes it's just not that feasible. If you walk through the door first; however, always hold it open for her after you cross the threshold, don't let it go and assume she will get it. +Hold her hand, or let her hold your arm when walking. Seriously, there is nothing more awkward than that couple who walks side by side with no form of contact. You're a couple, not just a pair of friends. It shows you care about her. Besides that, it's quite helpful to have an additional tether should you or she slip. It's like having a railing to hold onto at all times. After all, safety is important. +Raining? SHARE THE GOD-DAMN UMBRELLA! If it's too small for both of you, hold it over her, not you. You're not so sweet you'll melt. +Offer her your coat when it's cold. Chances are you can probably last longer without feeling uncomfortable in the cold than she can. You don't want to let your girl get cold. Plus, if you're walking down the street and she's shivering and you're wearing a down parka, you will immediately be branded as a cruel asshole of a boyfriend by every passersby. +Walk her home. It doesn't matter if she is hopping out of your car to walk ten feet to her doorstep, or she is walking home from your place and the walk is a mile and a half. You are obligated to walk with her. It could be colder than a witches left tit in a brass bra, and all you want to do is stay in out of the cold for as long as possible, but you can't. You are obliged to see her safely home, it's the gentlemanly thing to do. Even if you live in the safest neighborhood on the planet, it's the principle of the matter, and doing it without exception will make her feel safe and taken care of. +Stand up for her. Never let anyone badmouth your girlfriend when you're there, especially other men. She depends on you to back her up in less than friendly situations, just as you hope that she will have your back when you need it. If you let someone verbally, never-mind physically, abuse your girlfriend, you have failed in your unspoken duties as her boyfriend. This doesn't mean; however, that you should start a blood feud when your girl tells you that Jennifer from work called her a ""lazy bitch."" There are limits. +Be punctual. If you say you're going to be somewhere at sometime, you'd better be there when you say you're gonna be. Don't keep your girl waiting. If you absolutely can't be there on time because of unforeseen circumstances beyond your control, text or call her and let her know as soon as possible. No one likes it when another person they are depending on is always late, so don't expect her to tolerate it simply because she's your girlfriend. +2.3 Novel experiences - Share them. +Now this category is really just an extension of the dates category, but since its noticeably different, it should be given special attention. +The glue that holds any relationship together is the experiences you share together. Two friends will always talk about things that they've done together, and a group of friends will do the same. There will always be that crazy night, or that insane trip to Vegas hangover style, etc. Intimate relationships are the same. +How this fits into dating is that dating is often the platform by which couples have novel experiences. Going zip lining, taking a class, attending wine tastings, going white water rafting. These kinds of activities that neither you, nor she, has done before build the bonds that cement the relationship. +These experiences don't have to be insane things that neither of you actually like. Perhaps you aren't really a zip lining kind of person. That's okay, just makes sure that what you choose to do is something completely new to both of you. Is there a new exotic restaurant opening in town? Go try it out together. New experiences mean that you will always be able to look back on it and remember it as something exciting, and it's extra special because you did it together. +2.4 Relationship Talks - Sometimes unpleasant, always necessary. +Talking about your relationship in an open and constructive way is not always fun, especially if it's about something that could be slightly negative. When I say ""relationship talks"" I don't mean talking about that great date you had the other night, I mean the ""it really hurt my feelings when (blank)."" Or the ""where do we go from here?"" kind of conversations. +Relationship talks can be extremely intimidating, and being open about your feelings can leave you feeling vulnerable. Despite the fact that they aren't the most fun, they are very necessary to the health of your relationship. If there is an issue, it needs to be discussed, even if it's a small one. Small things tend to fester and in the end they will cause just as much harm as big issues. +So if you've got that sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach, and your intuition says ""Oh shit dude, you really need to talk to her about (blank)."" don't leave it for another day, or hope that it will blow over. Talk to her about it. +A solid way to open up that conversation is by saying something like ""Hey can I talk to you about something that's been bothering me?"" Saying ""Babe, we need to talk"" in a serious tone sounds wayyyyyy too foreboding and will immediately put her (or anyone for that matter) on the defensive. +Talk to her frankly and honestly about what needs to be discussed. Don't dance around the subject or be deliberately vague. Keep in mind that you should abstain from playing the blame game or being overly critical of her. Pointing fingers never actually solved an issue at hand. +In the long run she will appreciate the fact that you are making an effort to be open with her, and that you care enough about the relationship to have frank discussions about its ""health"" so to speak. You will feel better as well, because everyone knows that trying to go along as if nothing is wrong when something is, is not only very difficult, but also a huge burden to carry, regardless of the severity of the issue. +2.5 Compliments - Give them. +Compliments are an absolute must. Every guy knows it, but they don't always know how to do it right. +Firstly, compliments aren't obligatory utterances. You don't always have to compliment her when you see her, and you don't always have to compliment her about the same thing. The general rule of thumb is that if you think something on the inside you should say it, when it's appropriate. If she walks up to you when you two are meeting for your date and she looks stunning in her blouse and pencil skirt; tell her so. Don't just say she looks nice, or pretty. Making empty compliments gets boring and predictable, and pretty soon you'll start to sound scripted. She wants to feel special, not like a compliment whore, so don't feed her crappy lines. Tell her what you think, so long as it's not ""oh my God that dress looks disgusting."" Shape up bro, you're smarter than that. +Secondly, don't think about compliments as if they are a burdensome chore intended only for vain women. You like it when she compliments you, so don't treat it as if it's a one way street. If you want her to be open about what she thinks of your appearance, or musical ability, or whatever, you need to do the same for her. The goal is to make her feel special and appreciated. Sometimes you might want to do it just to see her smile, or blush a little bit. Seriously, don't skimp on the compliments, they can work wonders sometimes. +2.6 Lying - Don't do it. Ever. +This is probably the simplest section. Don't lie. Just don't. Once you start lying she will have no reason to trust your word, and trust is essential for the relationship. If anything she should be the one person who you can always be 100% truthful with. Let's face it, no one is always completely honest all the time. The one glaring exception should be your girlfriend. +If you are curious about white lies, the same goes for them. If she asks you your opinion about something, and you don't have a positive answer about it, don't pussyfoot around the truth, or feed her a bullshit line. Tell her the truth, just don't be an ass about it. +If you find that in your relationship you actually HAVE to lie to your girlfriend, (a classic example of that being telling her you're going one place, and actually going to another to hang out with your friends) you are with the wrong person. Sorry, but that's the truth. +3.0 Feelings - Your Feelings / Her feelings +Feelings are important. No question. There are a whole lot of sexual scripts about how men are supposed to be aloof and above such petty things as emotion. Because emotions can make us vulnerable, and 21st century men are never vulnerable, right?! Wrong. Please don't get too wrapped up in what society has taught you about manliness and masculinity and ignore your/her feelings. It will just cause trouble for you down the road. +Now there is a disclaimer for that last paragraph. Don't be that whiny bitch of a boyfriend. We've all seen them. They whine to their girlfriend in public about their emotions, or their feelings, or how much they hated this or that. Grow up. No one wants to hear it, and you're just embarrassing yourself, and her most likely. Feelings are good, but if they are negative ones, they belong in private. Don't air out your dirty laundry for the world to see. Conversely, don't keep positive emotions in check either. Feel free to talk about good stuff or how much you enjoyed something. The goal is to find that happy medium between bitchy boyfriend, and sour, sullen boyfriend who never says anything remotely related to emotions. +On the flip side of the issue are her feelings. Which are just as, if not more important, than yours. You are a partnership, so her feelings should always be taken into account by you, just as you assume she takes yours into consideration. Additionally, just because her feelings are sometimes hard to nail down or make sense of, that doesn't mean you can just shrug your shoulders and say ""well, I'm never going to understand, so I won't even try."" +3.1 Be in-tune with her feelings. +Now, as previously mentioned there is a very disturbing stereotype in modern intimate relationships. In actuality there are two problems with how society (and the individuals in society) view feelings in their relationships. It's quite typical of men to believe that they can never understand what their girlfriend is feeling, so why should they bother trying. Similarly, it's typical for many girlfriends to be hesitant to discus their feelings for the fear that their boyfriend won't understand, or even attempt to understand. +The whole situation is ridiculous, because it hinges on the idea that men are idiots when it comes to emotions and feelings. Men aren't naturally insensitive and oblivious, the unfortunate truth is that we're more or less trained by society to be that way. The good news is that you aren't actually doomed to a life of emotional idiocy. There is in fact a very simple fix. It's called your intuition. +If you've ever asked your girlfriend; ""are you okay?"" when she looks like she might be upset, or feeling down, that's good. It means you're intuitive. If she responds with; ""I'm fine"" when she clearly doesn't look fine, don't automatically assume just because she said so that she is, in fact, fine. Let's face it, guys don't like to talk about their feelings all that much, so we really can't expect girls to be forthcoming at all times with their emotions. +The big idea here is to use your intuition and push her to be open with you. Instead of saying ""are you alright?"" and being satisfied with a simple ""yes,"" try asking pointed questions like; ""you look upset, will you tell me what's bothering you?"" +The same goes for your feelings. Don't be afraid to tell her how you're feeling. If you're afraid that she won't think you're a big, strong, man anymore, don't be. Most girls actually prefer you to share your feeling, and a major complaint among them is that their boyfriends act as if they have no feelings. If on the other hand she does think that by sharing your feelings with her that you are less of a man, then you are without a doubt with the wrong person, and you need to rectify that situation. +The whole point of this is to get to a level where you both are emotionally supportive of the other and in tune with each others feelings. Have you ever been in a relationship where there were a lot of good things about it, but you just didn't feel that close to the person? Emotional intimacy may have been the area in which the relationship was lacking, and if you can start using your brain to really understand her feelings and her emotions as well as expressing yours, then you're on a solid track to having a better, and in the long run, more emotionally satisfying, relationship. +Summation +Naturally, this short list of suggestions on how to be a better boyfriend is not comprehensive. There are many more areas, categories, and sub-categories of content on how to be a good boyfriend. This is simply meant to be a starting point. In the end it's important to remember just three things. +1\. Respect her. +2\. Protect her. +3\. Make her happy. +***** + _That is all... good luck._ +Comments and votes are appreciated. +Thanks, +H" +62,"Be a Man, Submit",Bakeboss,How To,2010-01-17,2010-01-17,2022-01-04 08:26:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/be-a-man-submit,How to learn to serve your wife as a queen.,"['Be A Man', 'Fem Dom', 'Submit']",3.88,"This is for all of you macho he-men out there who are living a lie. You know who you are; god knows I was one also. You bluster about doing your so-called manly things when deep down what you'd prefer would be worshiping your wife. You know who you are but you're afraid to admit it. +Does it make you hard to think about being on your knees painting your wife's toenails while she enjoys a glass of chardonnay as she looks through Cosmo. Come on you know it does, you just don't want to lose all that control you have in the household. There's your first problem, you only think you're in control and that's only because your wife lets you think it. Do you realize you're not having the sexual thrill of orally pleasing your wife as she relaxes in front of the TV just because you want to save face? Really is it worth it, I'm just asking. +If I was to ask you, which you rather do, go play a round of golf with the buddies, or take your wife shopping, waiting while she tries on clothes enduring the humiliation of holding her purse. Oh, I know what you'll say but do you mean it? I hate to go shopping with my wife, she needs to look at every dress or bra or panties or whatever she shopping for. Shopping for lingerie is torture, all those sexy things everywhere you look but if you look, you feel like a pervert. Well you can believe me, once your wife knows she owns you there can be more pleasure in a shopping trip than you can believe. Once you admit how much humiliation can turn you on there's no limit to the excitement your wife can give you. My wife and goddess will pick up a pair of panties, ask me how I like them, and then rub them on my face to show how soft they are. It is so erotic and embarrassing at the same time but it never fails if the saleslady sees it, they always have a knowing look on their face. I just don't understand why there aren't any tell all books coming from the lingerie sales force. +Before all this I too was a macho fraud but as my fantasizes became more of, me as a sub and my wife as a Dom I decided to put my fantasies into reality. It didn't happen overnight and I started out by a humorous page I saw on the net entitled 'Porn for women.' It was pictures of men doing housework while their women relaxed. Another was of a man inviting his wife to shoe shopping. It was meant as a joke but I realized that being more helpful around the house would be appreciated by my bride. I mean face it like most men I was slug and rather inept when it came to housework. Yet even I could wash a dish or clean a toilet, maybe run a vacuum or stuff like that. When she asked me, what was going on I said I was trying to make her happy because her happiness was the most important thing to me. She said, ""Oh yeah, what if I wanted you to take me to the craft fair instead of watching those NFL playoffs you been talking about all week?"" I had the feeling this would be the changing point of our life, I got down on my knee in front of her and told her that's what I wanted most, to make her happy. So off we went to the craft fair, a place you'd never catch me before I decided to start serving my wife. +It took her awhile to determine my commitment and she would test me just to see how far I'd go. The more tests she gave me the more sexual satisfaction I got out of it. Now the tests are gone, as she now knows my goal is her happiness and is relaxed with our situation, enjoying her power over me. We still live in a life style that many would call vanilla but it's something my wife is comfortable with so I'm fine with it. I believe she knows there are no boundaries to my service to her all she need do is ask. +It's just inconceivable to me that I waited so long to offer my devotion and service to my wife and queen because I was in fear of her reaction to it. I mean that when you look at it I only see a win win situation for her. She now has a devoted husband who is at her beck and call and if she decides, I'm not man enough for her she knows she has the freedom to go out and find a lover who is man enough and still have her serving husband waiting for her at home. So far, I still seem to be able to satisfy her sexually but I guess I've never been too much of a man and it never bothered her before. +In conclusion, all you macho men out there just wishing you could be on your knees before your wife, I say go for it take that first step. Just start treating your wife as the queen she is and soon she may accept you for the servant you wish to be. As a person who has been where you are now let me tell you its well worth it. My life is now my fantasy and the more my wife learns to use me the more satisfaction I derive from it.

And, as we all know, not everything works for every person, so there's the disclaimer. Now, we're all pretty much familiar with the concept of oral sex. It stopped being considered a taboo and/or kinky a long time ago, except to the most religiously fanatical or prudish. If it's a prudish thing, get the fuck over it, seriously. It feels great for both men and women and it's sexy as hell. If it's a religious thing, well, this isn't an article on that. But while I can't speak to all faiths, just mine (which again, I'm not going to get into), I can assure you there's nothing forbidding sucking a cock or licking a pussy. So, that's that. +Now, as a man, I've read several articles on how to eat pussy. Some good, others...less so. And, not surprisingly, most of the best ones were written by women, straight women, no less. Now, the reason is probably obvious for this, a woman can tell you what feels good to her better than a man can tell you what feels good to a woman. No shit, right? So I figured a man would probably be able to write a good article for women regarding blowjobs. Made sense to me. +I should say right off that I have not personally given a blowjob. And while we're on the subject, men, let's talk about something a minute. A lot of men are squeamish about certain sex acts because it might be ""gay."" Some of those sex acts are going to be mentioned here, so let's figure out this gay thing here. For the purposes of this article, I don't give a flying fuck what side of the fence you're on as far as sexuality goes. But homosexuality is just that. Homo, meaning ""same."" A woman putting her finger in your ass is not gay. A woman licking your asshole is not gay. Frankly, a woman strapping on a dildo and fucking you in the ass is not gay, if you happen to be into that. Gay is one man deriving sexual pleasure from another man, end of story. +Back to blowjobs though. While I haven't given any, I have gotten several, and again, some were good, others less so. Let me tell you ladies, fellatio is one of the hottest sex acts, if not THE hottest sex act, you can do to your man. But it's not just the feeling of having someone suck one's cock, believe it or not it doesn't matter if you can deep throat. It's the actions and attitude that accompanies the blowjob that is most important. Your attitude seriously needs to be the center of your blowjob. It's pretty much what this article is going to be about. If you act like it's a pain in the ass, or you don't want to do it, or anything along those lines, it's a pointless thing to give a blowjob. It might feel ok, but it's like fucking, if your partner isn't responsive, it's not nearly as good. +So, attitude. The first and possibly most important part is desire. Like, burning, passionate, I've-been-waiting-all-day-for-you-to-come-home desire. You need to NEED your man's cock. I'm not really suggesting you fake it, but get yourself worked up so you do feel this way. Worked up enthusiasm is likely to lead to real enthusiasm sooner than later. By all means, start with a passionate make out session, undress him savagely, kiss your way down his body, but make it obvious that you are hungry for his cock. There is an article called ""Worship His Cock"" here in the Literotica How To section. I suggest you read it, it is an excellent guide describing the desire you should show. +Next is position. Position is important. If you can, get on your knees in front of him while he stands or sits. This conveys service and submission. Now, ladies, before you get all riled up and burn your bras (which I never did understand, but for the young and perky, by all means do so with my blessing), understand what I mean here. I'm not suggesting your place is in the kitchen or barefoot and pregnant or any of that bullshit. But getting on your knees to suck your man's cock is hot. Don't forget, he's going to go down on you, too (if he doesn't return the favor, get you another man). Not to mention the fact that while the appearance is you submitting to him, he trusts you enough to put his most valuable body part in your mouth. The act of servicing your man gives him a feeling of power, and the subsequent fucking you will get will make it all worth while. Besides, if you give yourself the chance to be open- minded, you might actually enjoy the concept of honoring your lover like this. +So now you're on your knees. Take the head of your man's cock and suck it gently. No teeth...NO TEETH. There might be that odd man in a million who likes his cock gnawed on, but it's not common. While your sucking, look up at him. From a man's perspective, looking into a woman's eyes as she has his cock in her mouth is incredibly sexy. It also conveys admiration for your man (hopefully your man has a body worth admiring). In addition to sucking, you might lick up and down his shaft. And don't neglect his balls. Lick them, suck them, for fuck's sake DON'T squeeze them. +As you get into it, provided your man is open minded to more pleasure, put a finger on his asshole as your suck him. You might even put some lube on or just lick your finger first so you can put it in his ass. This is an incredible feeling for a man. +So, at some point, you will probably stop sucking and get fucking. And, as mentioned before, you're in for a good one. But, suppose you just want to service your man. +He might get ambitious and start fucking your face. If you're into this, by all means, go with it. If not, let him know. Communication is important for sex in general, but especially if you're not ok with something that hurts. Believe me, the least sexy thing in the world for a man is knowing his woman is not enjoying him, especially if it's because of pain. +Well, eventually it comes to the climax. Your ministrations will be rewarded with a hot load of his cum. Consider his cum just that, a reward. It is his offering to you, a lust-laden gift in gratitude for your service. Treat it as such. So, do you spit, swallow, or let him cum on you? Truthfully, any way is fine. But again, it all depends on how it's done. If you swallow, or spit, and make a disgusted face or say it's nasty or something along those lines, well, congratulations, you just shot the whole experience to hell right at the finish line. +So let's say you want to swallow. When he fills your mouth, close your eyes and gulp it down. Now, lick your lips, eyes still closed, and give that sexy ""mmmm."" Look back up at him, smile, and tell him how good he tastes. Give him a hot, passionate kiss, and then he should return the favor and go down on you. +Spitting done properly can be every bit as sexy as swallowing, maybe even more so. If you spit, lower your head and let his cum drip down onto your tits. Close your eyes and rub his cum over your tits, massaging it into your skin. Again, smiling and some sexy vocal effects like moaning or breathing heavily while you do this are very appreciated. If you decide to have him shoot on your tits directly, pretty much do the same thing. The only difference is if you have him shoot on your face. The money shot is pretty much sexy on its own, just make sure you remember that smile. It lets him know you're happy with him and his offering to you. +Well, I suppose that concludes my particular take on the blowjob. I didn't get into technique much because, of course, that's up to you. Each couple is different, tailor your technique to what he enjoys and to what makes you feel sexy.

Kneel before your man with him standing if you're in a confined area, or when you want to strike a pose that is really hot. Other positions: seat your partner and crouch between their legs (slide a pillow under your knees if you're not on a soft surface), or lay down and let your partner thrust into your mouth, (harder to control the depth, but good for you lazy types). If you're in a car, your partner can lay down lengthwise in the back. +A sexy way to set the scene is to use your mouth to put the condom on before you get busy. +If you're dealing with a soft penis, you don't have to wait until it's hard to start the show. Put it in your mouth when it's soft (or semi-hard) to get acquainted. Kiss it. Lick it. Explore the different textures, especially the roughish tender head and the soft skin of the shaft. Feel it growing in your mouth. +Slide your lips gently over your teeth for smooth sailing. Most fellatio recipients like lots of spit, but others prefer a drier job, so check in with your partner. Asking quick yes or no questions like ""want it dryer?"" or ""more spit?"" can be helpful and hot. Despite your amazing technique, you aren't a mind-reader, so watch your partner for body language cues. Heavy breathing and moans of pleasure are signs that you're on the right track. +You can do more wonderful stuff with your mouth than just suck. Mix it up by licking the sensitive underside of the shaft, the nerve-ending-loaded head of the penis, and the testicles. Softly blow on the moistened areas. The combination of sensations will feel incredible. +Give your blow job a hand. Grip the cock around the base and slide it up and down, hand-job style, in tandem with your mouth. This is great because you can cover a lot of the shaft this way without worrying about taking the whole cock in your mouth. You can concentrate on the super-sensitive head and suck as hard or softly as you'and your partner'like. Use lube for extra slipperiness. +Deep-throating the act of taking the entire shaft into your mouth and throat can be cool, but you can give a perfectly stellar blow job without doing so. The key to deep-throat is to relax your jaw and throat muscles as much as you can. Otherwise, you trigger the gag reflex. +Look at your partner and the ecstacy you have caused! Make eye contact. Show your partner how much you love being down there. Moan, make appreciative noises (a well-placed MMMM! can make for some nice vibration, too), let your partner know how turned on you are. Don't neglect the rest of the body, either stroke, tickle, scratch the thighs, stomach, butt, and everywhere else you can reach. +It is ultimately your choice whether or not to swallow. Your partner's diet, health, habits and frequency of ejaculation will determine the quantity and taste of the ejaculate. The ejaculate of someone who ingests lots of red meat, caffeine, alcohol or cigarettes, may taste more intense than that of a non- smoking vegetarian. The most ejaculate you might encounter is a teaspoonful or so. You have several choices if you aren't crazy about ejaculate, but don't want to hurt anyone's feelings: +• you can take it in your mouth and discreetly deposit into a nearby towel +• as your partner approaches climax, withdraw and finish with your hand. +• You can let your partner come on your body and admire the copious amounts of ejaculate +• you can use a condom +When you're totally focused on giving head, it can be a lot of fun whether it's for power play (your partner's most precious asset is at your mercy), intimacy, or the pure fun of getting someone off. Remember, you should only be performing fellatio on somebody if you're really into it and are able to focus all of your energy on what you're doing. If you're staring at the clock, waiting for it to end, or worrying about the laundry in the dryer, you won't have a good time and your partner will be able to tell you're not into it, which can be distracting, too! +MISSIONARY: +The missionary position is probably the mot common first position people in the modernized world try, which is probably related to the high level of intimacy experienced. To get into the position, the receiver simply lies down on their back while their partner lies face down on top of them. Although aiming can be a little difficult at first for the giver, it doesn't take long to master this arrangement. +ARCH POSITION: +To do the arch position, the receiver gets into a partial bridge position with their shoulders resting on the bed while their partner enters from a kneeling position. The arch is often overlooked because of its perceived simplicity, but thanks to the fantastic penetration angle this sex position offers, it should be a regular part of everyone's routine. That being said, you'll want to make sure to use a pillow under the receiver's head to reduce the strain and risk of injury to their neck. +DEEP STICK: +To get into the deep stick position, the receiver lies on their back with their legs resting on the shoulders of their partner, who enters from a kneeling position. Titled the deep stick, this position holds true to its name; meaning the giver can penetrate with everything they got, unless of course they are too big. Although the position is versatile in terms of locations it can be performed, it can be very difficult for the giver if the genital altitude difference is corrected for... which is can be done easily using pillows. +LEAP FROG: +To try the frog leap position, the receiver squats, like a frog, in front of their kneeling partner who enters from behind. The receiver should arch their back to give easier access, and the partners should give a hand in supporting the weight... as the position tends to lead to sore thighs for the receiver very quickly. You can take turns with the reigns, or you can work together for the best of both worlds. +MIRROR OF PLEASURE: +To get into the mirror of pleasure position, the receiver lies on their back with their legs resting on one shoulder of their partner, who enters from a kneeling position. Similar to the deep stick, this position allows the giver can penetrate with everything they got, unless of course they are too big. Although the position is versatile in terms of locations it can be performed, it can be very difficult for the giver if the genital altitude difference is corrected for... which is can be done easily using pillows. +Eating Pussy +1\. Lick her like an ice cream cone... Big soft licks from stem to stern with a wide flat tongue stimulate all the nerves in her genital area. Go deliciously slow to make her feel like a yummy dessert being savored, or speed it up a bit and focus more on the clitoral area to push her towards orgasm. +2\. Dive in. Build up the intensity level gradually. Once you're into it, use your whole face. Bury yourself in her pussy, get your tongue in as far as possible, use your nose for more pressure. Not only does this feel good physically, it lets her know you are really into her taste and smell. Hint: if your eyelids aren't sticky, you're not doing it right. +3\. Insert two fingers in her vagina while licking her clit. Curl those fingers up towards your tongue, capturing her clit and G-spot between your mouth and fingers. As your tongue licks up pull down with your fingers; get a rhythm going +4\. Let your lover straddle your face. If lying back to be licked is too passive for her, let her hop on top. From there she can control the pressure and area of contact. To make this position even more fun, get tied down to the bed before she mounts you, and maybe she'll even boss you around with firm directives: ""stick your tongue out!"", ""open your mouth!"" ""suck it boy"", and so on. Bottomy munchers will, well, lick it up. +5\. Mix it up. If all you do is lick up and down, up and down, (""fencepainting""), chances are that it'll get boring to your partner after a while. Vary your movements, add pressure, use your lips, breath and teeth in addition to your tongue, change positions, use your hands....Get your whole creative body involved. +6\. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Most women orgasm in response to rhythmic stimulation, so if you're in a groove that is building her up, don't suddenly change what you're doing. Finding the balance between variety and consistency is the art to being an oral expert. +7\. Play the part. Combine your oral sex experiences with a variety of different erotic attitudes. Are you worshipping her pussy or are you controlling her with your tongue? Are you mystic lovers building an erotic energy ball together? Whatever your attitude, the psychic space you play in can make your sex connection that much hotter. +8\. Suck her into your mouth. Gentle suction is a nice variation on the licks and downward pressure of most cunnilingus. While you've got a nice piece of her sucked in your mouth, lick it while maintaining the suction. +9\. Lick her asshole. Use a barrier for hygiene, or if she is very clean and you don't penetrate, you may choose bare tongue on skin. The anal area is rich in nerve endings so all the varieties of oral stimulation--licking, sucking, nibbling--can feel wonderful. +10\. Add toys. Toys are a natural complement to oral play. +11\. Love your job. Pussy munching is best when both people love it. Doing it should feel really good and exciting to the giver. As good as it is for her cunt, it hopefully is for your mouth. It's something you're doing together. If you don't want to do it, don't. Performing sex because you feel obliged will kill that spark of sexual vitality in you quicker than anything. Follow the spark of your desire and you can't go wrong." +66,A Beginner's Guide to Bondage,Somegirl,How To,2004-09-10,2004-09-10,2022-01-04 08:24:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-beginners-guide-to-bondage,A how-to for novices.,"['Code Word', 'Dom', 'Good Dom', 'Hand Cuffs', 'Neck Ties', 'Strips Cloth', 'Wide Variety']",4.0,"Introduction +Many people fantasize about being controlling or about being controlled, and (in most cases) this is a healthy fantasy. While you can always do this in daily life the bedroom is a good place to live out those desires. +People who wish to be in control are usually referred to as the dominant, or the Dom, for short. People who wish to be controlled are called the submissive, or sub. Most people chose to be one or the other, but sometimes you may wish to experiment to see which you prefer, or you can change from Dom to Sub depending on your mood. +Beginning +The fist thing is to have a partner to share your fantasy. This person must be someone you trust fully whether you are Dom or the Sub. I recommend playing these games with a long time partner, not a one-time stand. Anything you do with someone you do not know may get out of hand. Both parts in the dynamic have a big responsibility for the safety and well being of the other, because while it may seem that the Dom in total control, in reality the Sub has just as much power. +As the Dom it is your responsibility to control the amount and type of stimulation the Sub receives. As the Sub you must tell your Dom when things becomes too intense or if the situation becomes uncomfortable in any way. If there is not enough communication between the Dom and the Sub there is a good chance of someone being physically or emotionally hurt. +I recommend you make a code word so that the Dom knows when the Sub really needs to stop verses when the Sub in really in the moment. Code word should be easy to remember in case things go to far, but something you might not say during play. Depending on the situation your code word may even just a simple ""Ouch, damn it that hurts."" +There are a few things most commonly associated with bondage: tying someone up, spanking, teasing, and obedience training. All of these can come in a wide variety and can be used in any combination or separately. +Bondage +When tying someone be sure that the ties do not cut off circulation or force the Sub into an uncomfortable position. The point of bondage for a Sub is to be able to let go not to be hurt. Also tight or uncomfortable bond can lead to strained or pulled muscles and joints. +There is such a wide range of things to bind people with, and ways of doing it that the only way to cover them all would be a book (one about the size of a phone book) in fact there are numerous books about the subject. Lets just go with a few of the basics. For the actual bonds you can use just about any thing scarves, neck ties, rope, string, strips of cloth, or hand cuffs to name a few. +Scarves ECT. +Scarves, neckties, and strips of cloth are a nice way to start, you can get them in ever material know to man. They are easy to find and you may have some around the house already or buy some just for play. For inexpensive scarves and neck ties you can use just for play try the local thrift store. (The items there may not match the bedroom, but if you're really worried about it you probably aren't having any fun any way.) +Ropes ECT. +Ropes and string or twine, are a little more intense then scarves. For one it is usually hard to get out of in a hurry, also some types of rope will dig into the skin and cut off circulation more easily than scarves. Before bring ropes into the bedroom try them out ahead of time. Nothing kills the mood like having to stop repeatedly because the Subs arms are numb. +Hand Cuffs +I do NOT recommend handcuffs for beginners as they can be to intimidating for novices. If you are going to use them you will mostly want to the furry kind, as they will not leave bruises like the metal one will. You can get them at a store if you don't want to go to one (or there is not a store that has bondage supplies near you) For Your Pleasure sells them (along with a lot of other things to spice up your bedroom). +You can also buy a wide variety of bondage equipment at most adult toy stores, or from a For Your Pleasure rep. +Teasing +Once the Sub is bond the fun can began. The Dom can blindfold the Sub or not and began to tease or stoke the Sub. You can use a feather or your hands to stimulate the Sub, just be creative. Your can use warming lotions, or edibles that you can lick off. The point of teasing is to get the Sub as close to orgasm as possible, so it is important to read the Subs body langue. At some point the Sub should be allowed to orgasm, how and when should be at the Dom's discretion. +Spanking +There are as many ways to spank, as there are to tie some one up. You can use your hand, the back of a hair bush, a strap, a belt, a fly swatter, a riding crop, or just about anything you can think of. Just be sure that you are not using anything with a point or a sharp edge as you may cut the Sub. With spanking make sure that if the Sub is bond, that there is enough play in the bonds that the sub can brace them self. (I had a friend once that broke her arm when her Dom tied her up and spanked her, when the first blow came she lost her balance and fell. That was not a fun trip to the ER.) +Spanking is where communication and your code word come in. Subs no matter how much your Dom is enjoying spanking you if it is too intense you need to tell them immediately! This should be as fun for you as it is for them. Doms if you get the scene that your Sub is indomitable stop what you are doing to make sure that they are okay. +Obedience training +Obedience training usually is not for beginners. It is where the Dom trains the Sub to do tasks on command. Doms use actual bondage, teasing, and spanking as a system of reward and punishment. Doms have Sub do anything from common household chores to having Subs play games for the Doms amusement. Doms may even have Subs perform for his or her friend or against other Subs. Obedience training may be your goal as the Dom or the Sub but be sure that you have mastered and are comfortable with the basics. +A good Dom will never force a Sub to do something the Sub is uncomfortable doing, or is harmful. A good Sub will let their Dom know what they like and dislike, and will not let the Dom coax them unto an unsafe situation." +67,Beginner's Guide to Buying Porn,BatsandGlamour,How To,2003-02-05,2003-02-05,2022-01-04 08:26:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/beginners-guide-to-buying-porn,How NOT to waste your time & money.,"['Fade Black', 'Fun Read', 'Ginger Lynn', 'John Leslie', 'Kay Parker', 'Long List', 'Mark Davis', 'Paul Thomas', 'Randy Spears', 'Search Engine']",4.64,"How well I remember my first experience with porn. I was just a teenager, maybe 15 or 16, and we went to my friend's basement with his dad's old Honeywell 8mm projector, some cigarettes, and no idea what we were actually going to see. +When the lights went out and the film came on, there was this rather old, somewhat overweight lady in a doctor's office, where she appeared to be getting a physical. I say appeared because there was no sound of course, and you could only infer from his white coat, stethoscope and exam table that this was the case. +Before long, he had his stethoscope, then his tongue on her nipples as she stroked his hair. Talk about doctor-patient privilege. Before long, she was giving him oral pleasure, he was returning the favor on her (very hairy) pussy and they were fucking on the exam table. He never took of his coat, or socks and shoes for that matter. His cock was twice the size of mine for sure, leaving me self-conscious for many years to come. Speaking of which, when _he_ came, he pulled out and shot all over her, which I did not understand at all. +We were in heaven, no longer just teenage boys, but suave young men well versed in the intricacies of the adult film universe. By the time we were finished with that story, the guys in school heard we had watched an academy award worthy adult film with the most gorgeous women doing the filthiest things that we had only dreamed of. Not a ten-minute silent film featuring a quickie-fuck by some past-her-prime hooker shot in someone's rec. room. +That was my initiation into porn, and it was so auspicious that I didn't see another one for ten years. +Ten years later, while a copywriter at a small ad agency, an art-director and porn enthusiast lent me a video that he recommended. It was the original Taboo, starring huge-breasted Kay Parker as a young mother who ends up in an incestuous relationship with her teenage son, some big sticked guy who I still don't know. Kay Parker was a big star at that time, and this was a good, professional film – not video, film – with a good plot, music and hot sex. +So I brought this tape home to our apartment, and my young bride and I popped in into the VCR. She had never seen a porn, or adult video, and had absolutely no idea of what to expect. Neither did I really. I certainly didn't expect what happened. +The movie came on and the plot took its time to develop, which made it watchable and fun. Not as good as a mainstream movie, mind you, but good. There was buildup and anticipation. Then the sex started happening. This was no longer amateur hour, since many of the early porn writers and directors came from the world of conventional. You could see the desire in their eyes, the sweat on their bodies, and hear their voices moaning, begging, cumming, albeit obscured by music. Of course, the pussies were still hairy but at least this was pre-silicone. Kay's tits were real, and they looked and moved like it. And she didn't moan like she was having a baby cow, she writhed and groaned with authentic passion. When she performed oral, she didn't just look at his eyes and swallow him like salami. She worshipped that cock, she rubbed it all over her face like it was her prize before she sucked it like her favorite lollipop. Of course the guy still pulled out and came on her flat stomach. +This was _hot_ , I mean hotter than anything I'd ever seen. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. My wife seemed to just take it lightly, unaffected. She's far from conservative, but she's no sex addict (like me!) either. She didn't dismiss it as silly or perverted, nor was she staring with her tongue hanging out like a rabid dog – at first. But as the sex got hot and hotter, so did she. As his cock slid in and out of her and her head swayed from side to side as her giant tits shook, I could see my wife's tongue licking her lips and her hand brush her crotch a little more than casually. As her pussy started to buzz and her nipples tingle, she began fondling her own tits and squeezing her nipples with helpless lust. Within a few minutes, we were having balls to the walls, wet sucking and fucking sex all over the room. She sucked my cock with a fervent gusto, moaning and twitching as I sucked her swollen clit until she just exploded, screaming my name. Then we fucked like two rabbits in heat, shaking the furniture and soaking the upholstery with cum and the pussy juice streaming out of her. +Was I hooked on porn? What do you think? +More, I needed more! My buddy lent me some of his other videos, many of the classic films of the time. John Leslie's Talk Dirty to Me and 1001 Erotic Nights. Vista Valley PTA, Amanda By Night, Beyond Desire, Chameleon, Seven into Snowy and more. +I'm not claiming that we watched porn every night, not at all. But we did enjoy these films every few weeks and they _definitely_ enhanced our sex. You just _can't_ watch hot sex with good looking people and not be stirred by it. +These were really the best films of their day and unless you're a great fan of shaved pussies and fake boobs (they're OK with me!) they still stand the test of time, bell bottom pants and colorful satin shirts aside. The sex seemed to make sense as an overall part of the movie, as opposed to the later films, where the plot was a thin device to string the sex scenes together. It seemed as though the focus of the sex was how great it felt, as displayed on the actor's faces. Today, so much more of the sex is what I call gynecology, where the camera seems literally _inside_ the girl's pussy for 15 minutes. +At that time, pornographic movies took more than two days to make, and there were therefore far fewer choices. Once we went through my friend's supply the trouble began. +I went to the few video stores that had an adult section tucked into the back somewhere, and prayed no one I knew saw me. I rented my videos based on the box covers and the enticing packaging. The videos we saw were generally and genuinely awful. Terrible plots, if any at all. Annoying, distracting, repetitive rock music – and I'm a rock music fan. My wife was not turned on by a chunky chick with a pimply ass being fucked by some skinny twerp with a big dick and an equally pimply ass. Followed by more scenes of the same. All looking like they were filmed by the light of a 40 watt bulb in my basement. Yuck. Our interest waned fast. Obviously the video store buyers did not know how to buy good porn. +Then I saw ads for adult videos in Penthouse or Playboy Magazine. This truly seemed like a better plan. I wouldn't have to stand at the counter renting 'I Cream of Jeannie' when my next-door-neighbor walked in to rent the latest Disney Video and discuss the PTA meeting. +Buying was a far more expensive way to go, though, as most videos were in the $29-39 range. But hey, it's only money right? Right – and far too much of it was wasted money. They, too, were selling what was probably cheapest for them to buy or had very little knowledge of what was _good_ porn. The box covers looked great, the descriptions were inviting, but the product was generally disappointing. There were _some_ exceptions, such as anything with Dyanna Lauren, who is so pretty it made me want to cry. Face of an angel, eyes like two blue icicles, body just too good to be true and that voice…or Celeste, who also has an incredibly lovely face and breasts a mountain climber could appreciate. Nevertheless, at those prices, I still wanted consistently good product. +Once the Internet became wildly popular, I found that it was and still is a superior way to purchase adult video and DVD. First, there's the privacy of it, since no one can see you at home on your computer at 3:00am feverishly looking for just the right porn and stroking your…wait, maybe that's – just me? Second, since there are many companies selling the product and they are all essentially distributors, you can shop for the lowest price for the same product. Third, you can get more information on a product before you order it. There's no shortage of information on the Internet. For example, if you want to see what videos Dyanna Lauren (there I go again), Tori Wells, Taylor Hayes, Juli Ashton, Annette Haven –whoever your favorites are or become- are in, you can easily search a seller's offerings. +As for me, I didn't know what movies I wanted to purchase as first, and was frustrated at buying those that sounded a lot better than they were. And the sheer tonnage of videos/DVDs is just overwhelming. Whatever category you like; straight, gay, lesbian, couples, singles, gonzo, wall-to-wall, fetish, bondage, anal, compilation, big tits, small tits, cum shots, incest, young, mature, black only, oriental, how-to, how-not-to, why-not? my mother, your mother, my father and your mother, fisting, vibrators, dildos, blowjobs only, schoolgirls in uniform, interactive, greatest scenes, professional, amateur, professional with amateur, husband and wives, wives with other men, gang bangs – whatever your desire, it's available, believe me. But where to start? +That's when I discovered www.rame.net. Rame is a free website that rates adult videos just like any reviewer rates movies you may want to see in the theater, and gives a wide variety of other valuable information as well. Instead of having just one reviewer as a newspaper may, rame has a large number of reviewers on the site, so that one person or many reviewers may review a video or DVD. These different point of views become important, because reviewers have different tastes like everyone else. Some may like a video with more plot and rate those higher, while others may only be interested in the action, and may not like a video with more character development or arty approach. +Many, though not all reviews will use a star system, giving usually one through five stars for the different aspects of the film, such as the sex, plot, technical proficiencies such as lighting, music, attractiveness of the stars, etc. +Rame's search engine is incredibly helpful because it lets you search for films by their title, or tell you what videos your favorite stars are in, then gives you a link to read the review of that video. It even gives you shopping information, so you know where you can buy the product online and shop prices, which are usually quite close to one another. +Not every video/DVD is reviewed, but the good ones usually are, so this site can save you a lot of money and wasted time. Nothing's worse than looking forward to a video/DVD you've ordered, then finding it has perhaps one or two good scenes out of an hour and a half. It's happened to me too many times. +By the way, most of the reviewers are experienced professionals and good writers. The reviews are packed with information, so you know just what you're buying, and many reviews are a lot of fun to read, as well. +I'm not suggesting that rame is the only review site on the Internet, I'm sure it's probably not. In fact, AVN (Adult Video News) magazine also features reviews of videos/DVDs online for free. AVN is the trade publication of the adult video industry. It gives news, interviews, adult video award information, trends, product information and lot more, created for the adult video and paraphernalia (vibrators, lubricants, anal beads, clothing – you name it) retailers, reviewers, industry executives and stars, and dedicated video enthusiasts. Its reviews are designed to guide retailers where a product would fit in. In the case of a video, what market it would satisfy and under what section to stock it. By section I mean couples, wall-to-wall sex, fetish, etc. +AVN is a great magazine, seriously written and produced by professionals and a publication whose scope and quality would be the envy of any industry trade journal. Their website is also top notch and a wellspring of information. If you want as much information as possible on the industry, directors, stars, trends, etc., a subscription might be a good idea. But for the 'casual' video enthusiast, a subscription to their magazine, though never a waste, might be a little overkill if all you want is reviews and an occasional snippet of information on a favorite star or upcoming release. For that, simply visit the AVN website. +Taking a step back for a moment, for sheer volume and quality of reviews, rame is as good as it gets in my book. Their reviews are usually long and detailed, giving me as much or more information with which to make a decision. They also usually give a long list of vendors who have good reputations. I've never had a problem with any of them. +OK, let's backtrack a bit. You may be saying, ""The review sites sound fine if I have some idea of what I'm looking for or like a particular star or director, but what if I don't know any of that yet?"" Are you saying that? I'm glad you did. There's nothing wrong with being a beginner. +There is not to my knowledge, which is by no means all encompassing, a site that breaks down videos into different categories. There are worthwhile Internet sellers, such as Good Vibrations that break down the videos _they sell_ into different categories for you. But there are tons of other titles in each category that they don't carry. +Before I begin more specific tips, I want to make one point clear, because it answers the one question people ask me all the time, which is, ""why aren't adult movies just like regular movies, only with more explicit sex scenes?"" It's a question I used to ask myself early on and has a simple answer. Making a mainstream movie takes many months and requires literally hundreds of people, from technicians to known, ""bankable"" actors. A movie today can cost between several million to tens of millions or more to make – and many still lose money. Adult videos don't cost nearly that much to make – and can't. They would never, ever recoup even of fraction of that kind of investment. It's a nice thought, but it just can't be done. +Considering the budgets and time constraints that adult video producers & directors endure, the product they offer is darn good. In terms of talent, many of the adult actors and actresses, including Randy Spears, Herschel Savage, Dyanna Lauren, Taylor Hayes, Mike Horner, John Leslie, Ginger Lynn, Mark Davis, Melissa Hill, Steven St. Croix, Tony Tedeschi, Jon Dough, Jonathan Morgan, Kaitlyn Ashley, Steve Drake and many others I haven't listed are good enough to star in mainstream productions, if only those markets were open to they. Sadly, they usually aren't, and porn stars and directors usually stay within their industries, with some exceptions, such as Nina Hartley, Tracy Lords and Ginger Lynn. So don't look for the production values, special effects, musical scores and overall polish of big-budget blockbusters, and you may be pleasantly surprised by some videos anyway. +That said, here are the most useful tips I can give you in finding the type of porn you can enjoy, no matter what category it happens to be. +* If you want good, general couples porn, look for the directors who make videos (and by that I mean DVDs as well) that cater to this market. These include but are not limited to Candida Royalle, who makes softer XXX, Paul Thomas, perhaps the best ever, certainly today's most prolific director of plot-driven porn, Brad Johnson, a veteran porn star himself and popular director, Veronica Hart, Andrew Blake, for highly styled movies with a lesbian bent and some of the most stunning women in the world, Michael Ninn, who also makes incredibly moody videos with superior technical aspects and gorgeous women having hot sex. I'm sure I have left out more names than I've included, but you'll get the hang of it. +If you go to the rame site and put Paul Thomas in the search engine in the performer category, you'll find a list of the many movies he's directed (as well as many he starred in as a younger man). Included there are Nothing to Hide - Justine 2, Bobby Sox, Bad Wives, Comeback and a long list of sensational videos. +* Look for the stars you grow to like and reward them by seeing their movies, just as you would any other actors. Who are the biggest female stars in the business now? It changes year to year and is most certainly a matter of taste, but I'd have to say Jenna Jameson (Flashpoint, Conquest, Dreamquest, etc.) Taylor Hayes (Jeckyll & Hyde, Masseuse 3, Fade to Black) Dyanna Lauren (Bad Wives, Ancient Secrets of the Kama Sutra, Censored) Brianna Banks, Terra Patrick, Sydney Steel, Juli Ashton, Asia Carrera, Chloe, Devon, Raylene, Stephanie Swift, Julie Meadows, Keri Windsor, De, Serenity and many more. There are others that I like a lot, like Racquel Darian and Celeste, but I think they retired. +Who knows why you may like one star more than another? It's certainly a matter of personal taste. Maybe you like the way they look, the sound of their voice. Maybe they remind you of an old flame or unrequited crush, like a teacher or friend's mother. Maybe its their expression while they make love, or the sexy things they say. These are the things that do it for me – or don't do it. There's nothing worse, in my opinion, than a drop-dead gorgeous girl who looks like she's being tortured when making love, judging by her expression. Or girls who shout, hoot and whoop so much they must be Terret's Syndrome sufferers. You _may_ like that and hey, to each his own. I don't like girls who are dead silent either, I just prefer a somewhat realistic approach to what they say and do during sex. +* Often, stars will 'retire' and come out of retirement more than once. So once you find a performer who you like to watch have sex, look for their movies. Many stars have, I'm not exaggerating, as many as several hundred movies to their credit. Marc Davis has been in over 1,000 movies and still has his cock intact. They may not have been the main star in all of them, especially their early videos, but it's fun to see how they've changed and, usually, become even hotter. As for men, some get older and fatter while some, like Randy Spears and Alex Sanders, seem to stay in incredible shape, which must be a lot of work. +* You can also shop by video title, then read the review to see if it's any good. For example, when you see movies titled ""Begging for Feet, ""Anal Injury, ""Adventures in Bondage, ""Runaway Butts, ""Screw My Wife Please, ""Swallow My Pride and ""Gang Bang Cum Shots,"" what do you think they are going to be about? These specialized films usually don't feature the biggest stars, but can have some wild, adventurous and totally inappropriate sex – my favorite kind! Again, with thousands of titles available, many will not be reviewed. This is especially true of compilation titles, those with sex scenes only – of which there are, God, probably millions by now. For these, you pay your money and take your chances, if you wish. +* Check out the studio. It's not quite like MGM and Warner Brothers, where every studio makes any type of movie. Adult studios often develop niches. Vivid and Wicked usually make couples-oriented, plot driven porn. Private is known for making films on foreign soil, often dubbed, with lots of anal loving, beautiful sluts, if you like that sort of thing (pant, pant) while other studios, such as VCA, Sin City, Caballero, Evil Angel, Hustler Video, and too many more to mention vary the content. Now, this does _not_ mean that a studio like Vivid makes strictly couples films and not specialty hard-core films, those with blowjobs only for example, because they absolutely do. Making money is making money and you give the public what they want. But a known couple's director like Paul Thomas works for Vivid (at this time), so they have a large catalog of couples oriented films. While a company like Anabolic is better known for anal offerings (don't you just love the way that sounds?) Many directors, work for one studio at a time on a contract basis. So Michael Raven films are for Sin City while and Veronica Hart directs for VCA. +* Most if not all studios have a website, usually www.theirname.com or just look it up on a search engine. But I want to tell you, some can be more trouble than they are worth. There are tons of annoying pop-ups advertising different memberships that enable you to see photos or videos on your computer, just like thousands of other porn sites on the internet. But those sites that are good give you a comprehensive list of what they sell and even sell them, though often at higher prices than you can get them for elsewhere. +* I'm not one to disparage a person's tastes, but if the specialty films you're looking for involve children or actual pain and suffering or worse, you're on your own. I want nothing to do with that kind of trash and neither should you. +* Aside from the studio websites and retailers you'll find on the net yourself or through rame, another avenue for purchasing adult video is ebay. Yes, ebay. They have an adult section under their ""everything else"" category. You have to establish you are an adult first by giving them a credit card, but believe me it's completely secure. On ebay, you are not able to search for a title, but can browse through different categories, such as straight, lesbian, etc. Many of the videos/DVDs are new, while others have been watched by the original purchaser. Like everything else on ebay, you are bidding and the highest bidder wins. Just don't get caught up in the excitement of bidding and pay more than you should. You can get some very good deals on ebay, especially for compilations. +Here again, I warn you that box covers and descriptions are frequently better than the actual video, so be cautious and read the review before bidding, if one is available. I've sold a lot of videos/DVDs on ebay and have been pleased. I've also purchased some real crap in my time, not ebay's fault. There are even some ebay ""retailers"" who offer hundreds of titles – many you've never of. They can be of every different variety. All I'm saying – it boils down to this – if you waste money on disappointing product, you may get turned off to the worthwhile videos, and that would be a shame. Stick to the good stuff at first, and if you can get great deals on some other titles and want to take a shot, go to it. +* If you're looking to turn your lover on, don't just stick with what you _think_ he or she would like. You may be wrong. A straight-laced heterosexual girl may be overwhelmed by a scene of two women getting it on, trust me! So may that bank manager husband of hers. More men and women have been turned to mush by the sight of two gorgeous women licking each other's pussies than you can imagine. In fact, it is _so_ arousing that most straight porn has at least one or two girl-girl scenes in it. All I'm saying is - experiment. +My favorites? I have to again admit that there are so many out there that I haven't seen, but you don't want to hear that. Well, some of my real favorites include: +Fade to Blue (with Juli Ashton) Fade to Black (with Taylor Hayes) Dinner Party (with Celeste and Mark Davis) Search for the Snow Leopard Nothing to Hide, Justine 2 (great!!) Chameleon (with Torri Wells) also, Chameleons 2, with Diedre Holland Eyes of Desire Elements of Desire Bad Wives (Dyanna Lauren & Mellisa Hill) Amanda by Night Talk Dirty to Me (John Leslie) Taboo (Kay Parker – wow!) Undressed to Thrill Borderline II (Celeste) Flashpoint (Jenna Jameson) Masseuse 3 +OK, let's summarize for a moment before you run off to the Internet or store. You can choose your video by the star, the studio or the subject – or all three. But you should _not choose it_ based on the box cover alone or you will usually be disappointed. +If you want couples oriented porn, you can choose Vivid, Femme, VCA or others that cater to this market. You can also choose based on the director, such as Paul Thomas or Veronica Hart, since they generally stick to the same type of films. +If you want sex scenes and nothing but, there are many 4-hour compilation tapes that will keep you happy for hours on end. This is another way to save some money. If you _really_ have the hots for a star, let's say Dyanna Lauren! (hey, it's my article), see if they have an interactive DVD. They are usually called _My Plaything_ or _Virtual Sex_ with (name of star). These DVDs let you sort of simulate having sex with the star by choosing the action (oral, intercourse, etc.), the position, and even the nature of the star (saying warm and fuzzy things or slutty things). If you like the idea of a porn star looking in your eyes and begging you to fuck her silly, these are fun, at least for a while. +Read the review of a movie before you buy, if one is available. www.rame.net is one great place, and they seem to be quite objective. Opinions on a feature may vary, but if they're all good or all bad, it's an important indication. The reviews usually have enough detail to help you decide on your own if the video is for you. +Well, I certainly hope that I've been helpful to you. I do think that porn is a great way to get fired up, learn some new positions and sex acts and spice up your sex life overall. With such an incredible variety to choose from and so many places to get it, including ordering over the Internet and having it delivered to your door, there's something for nearly every interested adult. Good luck, enjoy, and as always, email me with any comments or questions." +68,A Beginner's Guide to Dominating her,Master_n_Mentor,How To,2007-05-15,2007-05-15,2022-01-04 08:24:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-beginners-guide-to-dominating-her,First time Topping: how to start off right.,"['Bdsm Advice', 'Bdsm How-To', 'Beginner', 'First Time Bdsm', 'Safe Sane Consensual', 'Sex Advice', 'Topping']",4.57,"This is dedicated to the beginner Dominant. Many of you (I will leave out capitalization for this essay) will find this different than my many posts, but I have been asked so many time something like the following, ""…I'm trying to get my husband to open up to BDSM but he's not sure how to start… do you have any suggestions?"" And I find myself always answering the same way, ""… hare some very good links that helped me get started… allow time… talk a great deal… get him to understand that in a way it is simply reverting to what I perceive to be the natural roles…"" +The question that kept nagging me was, yeah that sounds great, but really, if you're a beginner and you pump me full of rules and regulations, do's and don't's then I'm going to get a bit discouraged and after all, ""this was [her] idea not mine"". Once I would reach that point I would be back to whatever I call normal and I would shut down inside. The shutdown would not be because of fear or distaste, but because of lack of ""actionable"" knowledge. What do I [do]? +I was watching a movie the other night and it came to me, there is a great approach that can be taken and help the first timer get through that very first Topping experience on his way to becoming a Dominant. The movie I was watching was Nina Hartley's Guide to Sensual Domination number 2 [How to dominate a woman]. I highly recommend it actually for the first timers, and as a way to perhaps break the ice and open the conversation. + ** _First let us start with some of the basics about sensual Topping:_** +The foundation of BDSM is ""Safe, Sane and Consensual"" and if you're going to start exploring this, you must understand that this is not ""sort of safe"" or ""mostly safe"" or ""should be safe"" but that it MUST be SAFE. So, if in doubt, start slow and make sure your partner understands your concern for her safety and together explore it. If you get to a point where it does not work for you or you're too concerned for her wellbeing then stop. Listen to your inner voice because it's there for a reason. Find out more about whatever it is you're trying to do, and experiment together. +In the BDSM lifestyle we make a big distinction between pain and harm. Pain is just one of the heightened sensations we feel, it is sharp short lasting and does not injure the person. A red bottom does not count as an injury, but third degree burns certainly are an injury and that most certainly qualifies as harm. +Many misunderstand the ""sane"" part. A top must be in full control of his senses. That means, no alcohol, no drugs, nothing that would keep your reaction time or your understanding of the situation from being the best it can be for you. The same goes for the bottom. She cannot be affected by alcohol or drugs and still be able to tell you that you are approaching the line the separates pain from harm. +BDSM play requires that it be consensual. Now you may be asking yourself, ""…wait a minute, I thought I gave the orders and she followed them? How can that be consensual?"" Well the answer is simple; BDSM is an exchange of power, not a license to be a domineering asshole. + ** _So then, what power is being exchanged and how?_** +The power that is being exchanged is whatever you define it to be. In many cases women are willing to give their ability to give and to receive pleasure, in exchange for not having to worry about his pleasure or her own pleasure. She is seeking the ability to get lost in the moment and to release control completely; but only to someone she completely trusts. The numbers of conversations I've had on this topic with women [both submissive and vanilla] center around one general idea. The idea being that there is stress in everything that they do: work, home, kids, and sex. Yes, sex can be stressful believe it or not. +Think of it this way, she is typically a giving type of person that wants to make sure you are pleased with her and that you enjoy sex with her, because she wants to please you. But you [if you're anything like I was] have been taught that taking the lead in bed, and perhaps in other social situations with women, is to take away from the women's right to define what she wants, what she likes, and what she doesn't. I think the term that comes mostly to mind is ""Chauvinist pig"". So, since you have a great self image, and you've been taught by society to be a nice guy, you want her to start, or you wait for her to signal you in one way or another (her breathing, or the way she moves her hips, or the sigh that's there or not there, the way she kisses you or doesn't, etc., etc., etc.,) so that you can do what she most wants you to do. +Wow! You are a mind reader, a body language reader and sorry to say: usually dead wrong, especially with a submissive wife [in hiding from you]. She loves you! She trusts you in ways that no one can trust you other than her. She knows you in the good times, in the bad times, as well as all your moods, and she still loves you and wants to please you. But, what are you doing? You are waiting for her to set the tone, the tempo, and the direction for the erotic times between you two. Wow, [yeah, I said it twice in one paragraph] what a recipe for disappointment and eventual disaster. You're trying your best to please her and you never quite know if you have, so you start to get frustrated. She, being your wife, understands you're getting frustrated with her and now she's frustrated not with you, but with herself. Can you see the spiral going down, down, down? +The exchange of power is the clarification that for the duration of the scene she will obey your commands, respond to your desires, accept our advances so long as they are safe, sane and of course consensual. How do you ensure that it is consensual? You two come up with a safe word. A word, that when spoken by either one of you, stops the action immediately. A safe word, especially for beginners, should be something very simple. It should be something no more difficult than the word ""STOP"". I tend to stay away from safe words like ""ouch"" if the scene involves spanking, or flogging, or anything that would normally elicit the ""ouch"" as a positive and pleasant response from her. But, I do remind my girl that ""ouch"" is not the safe word. That way, if she meant to use the safe word, she can do so before the next blow. + ** _The second thing that I want to cover is what the first scene could be, and why certain things may be a good idea to try._** +Keep your first scene simple. You're new to this so don't try to act like a ""know-it-all"" Master. Let's face it, you're not and the best thing is that she does not want you to, or expect you to be. +If you have the right bed (like a four poster) you may want to tie her up. Not with expensive cuffs or leather restraints, but with something as simple as your belt, or if she has a few silk scarves try them. Don't tie her too tight, this is not about actual restraint, but more of a mental reminder that ""you"" are in control. It works almost as well, to order her to hold on to the headboard and not let go: Or to hold onto the sides of the bed and not let go. Later as you two gain more experience and you decide that it is the right time you can add more formal restraints. +Lay her on the bed and physically or mentally restrain her. Allow her to feel her helplessness and her ability, in that helplessness, to let go and simply to accept whatever pleasure you wish to give her, and to take from her for yourself. Look at her. In essence eat her body with your eyes, and make sure she sees you and enjoys the ravaging looks you give her. She is your wife after all, and your approval and desire for her is a great turn on for her. +Touch her lightly. Let your hands explore her skin and her private areas. Look into her eyes as you ""take"" the pleasure her flesh gives you and don't be apologetic in the way you look at her. She's your property, it is your right to accept pleasure from her, and to take the pleasure you most desire. Ask her how she feels from time to time. This is not to make sure that you change what you are doing, but to let her know she is important to you. While she answers you, explore those places on and in her body that please you most. +Take your time. I can't put enough emphasis on this part. This is not a ten minute fuck session. This is about taking control of her pleasure and to heighten her self awareness and to heighten her awareness of the pleasure you are getting from sexually and erotically taking her. +Tease her, endlessly. Keep her on the edge and do not allow her to go over the top. You can do that two ways: 1) you can tell her that she is not allowed to climax without your permission, or 2) you can sense when she's ready and the back down from what you are doing. If she whimpers consider that a success for both you and for her. +If she's to ask you permission to orgasm, make it a big deal. Tell her to ask you formally: something like, ""Sir, may your girl be allowed to cum, please Sir"". The reason you want to do that is that it reinforces in her mind that she is submissive to you, and that you are one hundred (100) percent in charge of the situation. The side benefit is that it will make you feel very good to have your wife, your lover, your girlfriend asking your permission so formally. It will build both your Top mentality, and her submissive mentality. This is a win for both of you. +Give her oral sexual stimulation as part of your teasing. Explore her completely. You are not rushing her to orgasm, but instead you're teasing her. You are in control so take your time and focus on yourself. The fact that you are enjoying her will give her the thrill she seeks. You want to pinch her nipples, do so. You want to pinch her clit; do so. You want to give her a long loving French kiss with her scent on your lips; do so. I have to add here that you just have to take your time and enjoy her. The more you enjoy her, the more you'll see her releasing herself to your desires and achieving something akin to nirvana. +Give her an orgasm, or don't, that is up to you. She'll tell you, and it will be the truth, that it is not about the orgasm, but about not having to be in control or partial control. +Have her kneel before you. Have her spread her legs apart, and sit on her heels with her hands either upturned on her knees, or behind her back, or her fingers laced around her neck. Walk around her and caress her and enjoy the view from where you stand. She's meant to feel vulnerable and open to you. Her legs and her womanhood open to your every desire. Her breasts open to you. Her mouth open and inviting to you. +In this position she must be explored. Her body touched and used for your pleasure. Let her taste you but don't let her take you in her mouth till you know she's craving it. Allow her to make you feel good. It is her greatest desire to give you pleasure and she'll astound you with her ability to take you places you've never thought she could. Here you can use her favorite toy and at the same time not allow her to orgasm without your permission. Keep her fully aroused and make her the center of your world. +Grab her hair and use it as leverage to show her how much her mouth pleases you. Teach her how you like to be taken in her mouth. Show her the strokes you like, and caress her when she does it right. Don't make it about her, but instead make sure she understands from your body language as well as your spoken word that it is about you and your pleasure; but allow her to enjoy herself as well. Don't rush her, don't rush yourself and don't give her your orgasm until you are fully ready to end the scene. +After you've been properly pleased take her by her hair firmly but not harmingly and tell her to stand before you. Have her spread her legs and walk towards you and play with her openness. Then have her lean against the wall and stick her ass up in the air. Walk around her and caress every inch of her body, letting her know how much you are enjoying her nakedness. Slowly and teasingly explore every cavity in her body allowing her to feel your intrusion and the pleasure it brings to you. Allow her arousal to climb as high as you want it to and hold her there. When you are done, take her by her hair again, lean her over the edge of the bed and have her stick her ass up in the air and offer herself to you. Have her touch herself and to make it as pretty as she can for your viewing pleasure. Ensure that she knows that you are staring at her and eating her with your eyes. And, again, make sure she asks your permission before she climaxes. She's under your control, so allow it if you wish or don't if you wish as well. +Finish it however pleases you most and then cuddle her. If you wish to try something erotic have her curl up at your feet, and gently and lovingly caress her and talk about what you liked and what you did not like. Tell her that her thoughts are yours until you finish the scene and discuss openly the scene from each of your perspectives. +Add spankings to suit you and her any place during the scene. Next time try something different. Keep in mind that foreplay and after-play are very important to both of you. Once you have the first scene under your belt, you'll come up with many variations and your own relationship will guide you from there. +I sincerely hope that you found this a useful way to get started and I hope that you all will comment on this post. I'm looking for positive, negative and alternative comments. +Blessings to all…" +69,A Beginner's Guide to Spanking Her,Master_n_Mentor,How To,2007-06-06,2007-06-06,2022-01-04 08:24:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-beginners-guide-to-spanking-her,The do's and Dont's for that first time spanking.,"['Bdsm', 'D/S', 'M/S', 'S&M', 'Spanking']",4.51,"A Beginners Guide to Spanking her... (Second in the series for BDSM Beginners) + _{Editorial note: I do not mean to insult A/anyone, but for simplicity for the beginner I did not follow the proper capitalization rules.}_ In the first part of this series I talked about the founding principle of BDSM: Safe, Sane, and Consensual. I don't think enough can be said about the importance of each of these three areas. For those of you who did not read the first part, I will cover it here one more time because of how important it is to both the beginner and the experienced BDSM practitioner. Safety is the first leg of the BDSM three legged stool, if you'll permit the analogy. Safety first, second, third and always is the only way to truly enjoy BDSM to the fullest. That sounds strange doesn't it? Isn't BDSM about taking absolute control? Isn't BDSM about Bondage and Dominance? Isn't the S in BDSM stand for sadism, which means to take pleasure in inflicting pain? Isn't the M about masochism, or the enjoyment of receiving pain? Well, the answer to all those questions is; yeah, but! The BDSM lifestyle that we practice at home is a loving relationship that has the basis on the clearest of understandings. I dominate her, because she needs to submit to feel complete, and I need to have loving control so that I too can be fulfilled. One without the other is impossible, or better said it is not BDSM and can border on abuse and brutality at its worse. To the outside world [those who have only read the words, but not experienced the lifestyle] BDSM is the dark pictures they see on the magazines and the brutal pornographic images that sometimes are included in the movies. Just like a man can't leap over tall buildings, BDSMers do not brutally accost each other for the sake of the Sadism and Masochism traits they share. BDSM is about the open conversation about the fantasies, desires and needs as well as the enjoyment of dominating or being dominated and for both to heighten their erotic pleasure by the unique sensations they share with each other. The second leg of the three legged stool of BDSM is ""sane"". All play, no matter how extreme it seems to the viewer is done with an understanding that no [harm] will be done. The difference between pain and harm is very significant. Think of it this way, you may enjoy having your ass spanked [the thrill of the sharp sensation and the intimacy that accompanies it] but you would not enjoy being punched in the nose. Why? Simple, the blow to the cushioned fatty tissues on your buttock which is made for such abuse will cause no harm [no permanent damage]. However, when you are punched on the nose [even if you use the same force as on the buttock] you hit less than a millimeter of flesh and then you are applying direct force on soft cartilage and then directly on the bone. That same force is very likely to break something and cause injury. Harm is not BDSM, that's brutality and in no way accepted or condoned in the BDSM world. Sane also includes the fact that the dominant in the relationship is the one that while in control, also must assume many responsibilities for the safety of his submissive. This is not a one way street; it is in fact a very well balanced relationship between submissive and dominant. The dominant has to make sure that neither is under the influence of alcohol or mind, perhaps it would be better to call it perception, altering drugs. The dominant has to be able to focus all his attention on the submissive and have a clear understanding of how close she is to her limits. His reaction time must be at its sharpest to ensure that if the situation gets out of control he can slow it down or stop it in a heartbeat. That can be the difference between pain and harm. The third leg of the BDSM stool is consensual behavior. Neither party gives _cart blanche_ to the other. The importance of communication, communication and yes more communication cannot be emphasized enough in here. Long conversations need to take place between the dominant and the submissive to ensure that the scene is clearly laid out and that both know what the limits are and where they can and where they cannot be pushed. Dominants ask questions and make sure that you know exactly what's on the mind of the submissive. It is essential that you put her at ease and that she is made to understand that in this type of conversation she is not topping from the bottom: a topic all on its own. Once you've resolved all the questions in your mind, as the dominant, you must take control of the situation. She craves to feel your loving control over her and will only put up a fight to the extent that it heightens her enjoyment of being taken over; more appropriately taken in hand. But, at the same time, you must keep in mind that you are doing this for your own enjoyment of taking her and letting her feel your hand landing upon her flesh just as the rest of you will at the end of the scene when you take her. The same thing applies here that applied in your first experience dominating her: _take your time_! There is no reason to rush through a scene. The moment can be prolonged and minutes made to feel much longer because your adrenaline and hers are fully taking over your brain and the rest of the chemistry in your body. Give her a set of instructions that make sense to you. In this article I'm going to give you some ideas, but in the end remember it is your scene, and NOT mine. Order her to go to her room and put on appropriate clothing. My own preference is a loose short skirt, no panties, no bra and a tight low cut top. I want her to feel the embrace of the clothing and I want the clothing not to interfere with my machinations as I spank her. Order her also to come back to you and to kneel before you. The kneeling position I enjoy the most is called NADU and it comes from the Gorean worlds. She is to kneel, legs spread apart and her ass resting on her heels. Make sure she's comfortable enough by providing her a soft spot for her knees. Her hair is to be put up so that it is out of your way. Her upturned palms are to lay on her thighs offering herself openly to you. Once she's kneeling before you, make a big production out of observing her. Ensure that she understands that you are gazing upon her body and that it belongs to you. Make minor adjustments to her position so that it pleases you most. Arrange her hair the best way for your ability to touch all her skin. At this point you want her to feel your domination and total control over the mood, because it is that same mood you are setting for the scene. The mind is what you wish to control; the body is the easy part. Enjoy the feel of her breast upon your hands; do not allow her to look up at you unless you explicitly give her instructions to do so. Again, you are working on the mood and you are helping her achieve the mind set of the submissive. Enjoy a long caress down her back, ending on what will be the target of your blows. Touch her as if your fingertips were as light a feather and do not allow her to squirm because you are tickling her. Don't yell at her, just simply and firmly say: Stop! Do not allow her to protest that she's being tickled and cannot help it. A submissive, just as much as a Dominant, has to be in control of herself first and foremost. She has to have searched her own mind and spirit and decided that she wishes to submit to you, and upon arriving at that depth of self understanding, and then she is ready to experience the fullness of submission. If she's failed to do this, take her through this journey of self awareness. There are no shortcuts in life, and neither are there any in BDSM. The dominant person takes on many responsibilities as I stated earlier. The development of her self awareness is one of the requisites for the job. Come on, it's no different than the soul searching you did when you realized that you had the potential of becoming a Top or a Dominant or even a Master. You spent hours thinking about it, what it meant to you and what would be expected of you, she has to reach the same point or you two are not in balance with each other. Take your hands and roam her body one more time: always taking the opportunity to correct her posture to please you most. Follow the center of her body down to her thighs and caress them. Tease her, endlessly! She is your willing toy at this point and actually expects you to use her. Caress the inside of her thighs, slapping them softly and telling her: Open! Be firm, but be nurturing at the same time. She's learning what pleases you, and learning what she enjoys at the same time. Part her lips gently, enjoy the unencumbered view and allow your fingers to penetrate her. See if she's wet enough to go to the next step. Your preparations are to bring her arousal to a nice wetness that signifies that her entire body is ready for you. Stay in this stage, or similar one, until you have her completely melting to your touch. Before you move to the next step, keep in mind that there are parts of her body that are made to take punishment, but there are many parts that are not. Examples of two areas you should stay away from are her spine (I know, you had figured that out on your own) and her lower back. Her lower back, and on the side of her spine is where her kidneys are. The kidneys are very sensitive and are also attached to the muscular tissue directly connected to her flesh. A blow to the lower side of her back and you are dangerously close to causing damage to the kidney and to the injuring her. Not a good idea. One more area, that I'm sure you figured out as you walked behind her, was her neck and her head. Don't strike a blow to either, they will cause harm. The last word of caution is her coccyx bone, or better known as her tail bone. A direct blow to it can cause the tip to break off and that is severe injury and pain. Now that you have surveyed your property and are certain she is fully aroused, place her in a position that will allow you to spank her comfortably. Remember, this is not a ten second spanking, this is a good workout and will last a fairly long time. Once you've put her in the position you want her in, and then warm her up a bit. Take her butt cheeks in your hand, cup them and squeeze them. The purpose is to get her mind ready, and to get the blood flowing nicely to her ass cheeks. Lightly tap them. Take your coat off, get comfortable, you'll be here a while. Get the lay of the land, so-to-speak. Feel her ass cheeks; make sure her legs are still parted because you want clear access to her lips. You will want to check her moisture level from time to time, and to allow her to vent some of the eroticism she's feeling by playing with her clit, and plunging a couple of fingers deep in her; allowing her the pleasure of your penetration. Continue for a while squeezing and lightly tapping her ass just to get a good feel. Did you remember to set up a safe word? I hope so, if you read the last article. But in case you've not here is a good time to discuss safe words. Pick a nice safe word, one that would not be a commonly used word in this situation. Stop, is a bad safe word. Ouch, as I remind my wife, is NOT a safe word. I do that to give her a second to decide if Ouch was truly Ouch, please stop, or simply enjoyment of a well delivered blow to her lovely ass. ""Blue"" could be a good safe word, if you both will listen for it, and both remember the meaning of it. In addition to a safe word, you also need to find a word or a motion that will let you know that she enjoyed a particular blow very much. A word that lets you know that you can spank her harder, or a word that means you hit a perfect spot, please remember it so that she may enjoy that feeling again. Are you getting the idea that this is a lot of responsibility for you as the dominant? Good, you are getting it right and you'll do well. You must work this entire scene and words (safe and forward) out ahead of time. Begin by delivering a few nice soft but firm blows. Look for the areas on her ass and thighs she enjoys the most, and give you the most pleasure. Remember the good spots, and make a mental note to come back to them. Test her later on with harder blows, or more rapid blows so that you get a general picture of both of your likes and dislikes. The force and frequency of your blows need to climb steadily. You should start soft and slow, and then a bit harder and than later a bit faster. Interchange slaps across her ass, with squeezing and caressing. Give her body time to fully enjoy the sharp sensation of the blow, and then the tenderness of your love for her. You are using her ass and thighs to work her out physically, mentally and emotionally. Don't be afraid to make her cry; she may need your spanking to release those emotions. Don't be afraid to hold her down in place as you deliver the spanking as long as she does not use her safe word; but at first you should remind her that squirming or ouch not even crying is a safe word. Make her feel reassured that you are watching for her safe word, but that you are going to take her to the edge and let her peek over and test the other side, until she uses her safe word. As you land blows keep in mind that too many blows in one place tend to get painful and no fun for either of you; unless you are doing it on purpose. You'll learn that it is not always painful if she is already worked up enough. In that case it is a lot of fun and you should not hesitate to do it. Otherwise, switch cheeks; slap the lower part of her ass right by her thighs with a little upper movement on the hand to cup the ass cheek. Let your fingers linger and then plunge them deep inside her. If she's wet, pump her a few times, then remove your fingers and deliver additional blows where you know you'll enjoy the most. Observe her carefully and she'll teach you where you will achieve the best results by slapping, how hard, how often and for how long. Submissive women are not door mats, they are very intelligent and very strong women who simply need to be taken in hand, to be made, by sheer dominant _will_ not brutality, to feel their submission. Let your manliness come out, peel away the years of political correctness, wash them away and enjoy the power exchange you both share. It is like nothing else. As you do these scenes realize that the more you do them, the more you'll know and the further you can push her. Many women I've talked to tell me that their Tops at first did not push them far enough and that they needed to be taken up there so that they could release totally. Don't be afraid to let the scene last a long while; but always keep an eye on her to make sure her blood flow is not compromised and make sure her breathing is normal (normal for the emotions she's feeling). Her safety is in your hands and no one else's. Her mental and emotional state is yours to control, but it is also yours to observe. The deeper and deeper she goes into her submission she can get lost inside of herself, and now you have to take great care of her. Just as you took time to bring her to this level of release, you need to slowly bring her back down. This is when you have to be gentle with her and let her feel your presence and your continued control of her as she winds her way back down. Caressing and gentleness are the keys for after care of your girl. Afterwards talk about how she felt, what she was thinking, what she wanted to feel more of, and what she wanted to feel less of during the scene. If she's reluctant to be open with you, remind her that as your submissive her thoughts around a scene you've put together and delivered belong to you; both the good and the bad. Encourage her and reward her for open honest answers. This will only make your next scene far better than if you only had your thoughts and impressions to work from. _I encourage both Dominants as well as submissives to add to this posting by leaving comments describing your own feelings about spanking scenes that you've been involved in, and help the beginners gain a better perspective by the variety of thoughts. To allow my own thoughts and experiences to guide is not sufficient. A beginner is eager to learn from you and I humbly ask that you add your thoughts to mine. **Blessings to all of you and thank you for reading this article.**_" +70,Being a Good Parent,PrincessErin,How To,2008-05-19,2008-05-19,2022-01-04 08:26:22,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/being-a-good-parent,Advice on how to be a good parent.,[''],3.4,"This is not an article on how to be a good parent in the general sense. I've only been a parent for over a year and I'm sure I still making mistakes. This article is about how to be a good parent when it comes to the education system. It is extremely important that you take initiative and become part of your child's life when it comes to their school education. +As a high school teacher, I have seen my fair share of good and bad parents. I wonder sometimes why people think young people have such problems these days. Is it maybe because their parents have problems as well? The following are suggestions from an experienced teacher. +Call Your Child's Teacher +The first step in being a good parent is to keep an open dialogue with your child's teacher. I know this sounds simple, but it is the best way to make sure that you child is successful in school. +You might think this is too much work, especially if you have more then one child or if your child has multiple teachers. No matter how much work you think it is for you, it is much more work for the teacher to contact you. +On average, elementary school teachers have anywhere between thirty and sixty students. This is assuming that a class has no more than thirty students and that they have no more then two classes. If they teach a specialized subject such as computer studies, or physical education, they might teach the whole school that subject. This could mean up to two hundred or more students. +A high school teacher has many more students. If they teach three classes a day they might have up to ninety students. If there are shorter periods in the day they might have upwards of two hundred students. Either way, that's a lot of students and a lot of parents to contact. What normally happens is that if your child is doing fine or not really struggling, you will not get a phone call. A lot of times phone calls are made to parents when a problem has reached the breaking point. Something could have been done beforehand, but if the parent doesn't put in the effort to make themselves aware of any issues, it's difficult to deal with later on. With the amount of work a teacher has to do during the school year sometimes students fall through the cracks but in my experience a student who has an involved parent does not slip through the cracks. +As a parent, you might have anywhere between one and ten teachers to contact. Obviously, it is easier for you to call and ask if there is a problem than to sit and wait until there is a serious problem. +Contacting your child's teacher shows that you are interested in their education and helps the teacher understand any social or emotional issues that might come up. A teacher can do their job better if you are willing to make the first contact. +Support the School +This is an interesting concept and is similar to the argument of what came first, the chicken or the egg. Do students do well in school because their parents are involved in the school community or do parents become involved in the school community because their children are doing well? That is an argument for another day. +You don't have to be the chairperson of the PTA to support the school. Make sure you know what is going on at school. When do report cards go home? When are parent teacher interviews? These are important things to know. Stay in touch with the school and help out whenever you can. This might mean volunteering in the kindergarten class once a week or it might mean complaining to the board when they decide to cut funding to the arts program. +Be Accountable for your Child +As a high school teacher I only know what happens at an elementary school from what my colleagues tell me. I would love to say that the following issues only happen in a high school, but they don't. Either way though, this is an important step. +If your child makes a mistake, acknowledge that it occurred. It is not a reflection of your parenting skills. If you get a phone call from the principal or vice principal, they are not criticizing you ability to parent your child. They are working together with you to make sure your child doesn't continue to make bad choices. +I have heard horror stories about what happens when administrators call home. One vice principal called home to tell a mother that her son had been involved in a fight. She was in denial and refused to believe that her son had started a physical altercation. She then stated that she was so mad, she would go over and punch the principal in the face. +I have also heard parents defending their children's action when they have been caught on school property with alcohol and drugs. I'm not saying that their child didn't have a legitimate reason to do that, but it is important that the parent supports the decision of the school. Parents need to teach their children the importance of authority. If children see their parents not respecting the authority of the school, there is no way they will respect them either. This could also stretch to the real world, which would have disastrous results. +This is just a short list of ways that you, as a parent, can help your child develop into a well mannered, respectable, mature individual, who will be a great asset to society." +71,Being a Good Teacher,PrincessErin,How To,2008-05-19,2008-05-19,2022-01-04 08:26:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/being-a-good-teacher,Advice on how to be a good teacher.,[''],3.48,"As I wrote my ""How To"" on being a good parent, I realized that parents who read this article would take issue that I did not address the teacher's role in the development of their child. This article will hopefully address these issues. As a teacher, I have a very important job. I need to make sure that my students become mature responsible members of society. These are my suggestions. +Be Respectful +The most important skill that humans should have is the ability to respect others. This doesn't mean that you have to like everyone you meet. Adults dislike certain people and some adults even hate others. The issue is that if someone is in a position of authority, you must respect him or her and his or her role. Respecting others is a life skill, not just something for the school or workplace. As a teacher, you need to show respect to teachers, administrators, and other members of the school community. Students learn from your actions much more than your words. +As a teacher, I need to be respectful to my students. Even if I am upset at their actions or words, I need to treat them as human beings. I still need to discipline them and make sure that they learn from their mistakes. I need to do that in a respectful manner. +Communicate with Parents +This is such an important element of being a teacher. A teacher needs to communicate with the student, the parent, and the school community. If one of these parts of the triangle is weak, or non-existent, there will be issues. It doesn't mean calling all parents every week just to chat. In an ideal situation, teachers would have the time to call their thirty to two hundred students' parents. Unfortunately, we do not have an ideal situation in the education system at the moment. It means calling parents when a concern occurs. The contact must be done in a timely fashion and done in an appropriate manner. Phone calls are the best way to contact a parent. As a teacher, you need to call before the problem spirals out of control. +I remember working with a new teacher who was teaching science. She taught a whole month, teaching her students all about biology. At the end of the month, she gave the students a test and one student failed. She had also failed all the assignments that were given during the month. The teacher was worried because this unit was worth one-fifth of the course mark. When she called the parent, she was told that she should have called ahead of time. The parent was extremely upset because if she had been contacted earlier, she would have made sure her daughter finished the assignments. I agree with the parent in this situation, a phone call should have been made earlier. +When you call home, you don't always get the response you want. I have made many phone calls where the response from the parent is something along the lines of ""well at least he shows up for your class."" This is definitely not the type of response you want when you are trying to gain support in helping a child succeed. Some teachers can get frustrated and give up. This is not the correct response. When a parent gives you a response such as that, you should realize that the parent is equally frustrated at the situation. The child needs more assistance and direction, knowing that they are not receiving this help at home. +Try Your Best +No matter where you teach, the education system is a demanding workplace. Every school board, state, province, and country, are continuing to make very high demands on the teacher. Teachers are required to teach large amounts of the curriculum. They also have to prepare students for government mandated tests. Some regions in Canada and United States have students write tests every year of their schooling that are the same across the province or state. Schools are ranked based on how the students perform on these tests and schools with poor results are looked upon unfavorably. Teachers have to contact parents and go to professional development training days. The list can go on and on. With that said, you need to try your best. You can't do everything. You can't give up either. You need to do what you can to make sure that your students are successful. They are your responsibility from the time school starts in the morning until they leave for the day. You see these students more than their parents do. You are their pseudo-parent Monday through Friday, September through June. You can only do your best." +72,Bicurious and Married?,Pirate_Guy,How To,2011-01-04,2011-01-04,2022-01-04 08:26:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/bicurious-and-married,A primer for guys thinking about getting cock on the DL.,"['Bi Male', 'Bisexual', 'Cocksucking']",4.5,"So, since you clicked here, it's entirely likely you're one of the many married guys on Lit who are on the horns of a dilemma: You're straight, but you're really curious about the idea of sucking a big hard cock. +Maybe you get turned on by the ""pals go camping and get sweaty in the tent"" stories. Perhaps the steamy tales about manly blowjobs in the health club showers get you off. Maybe you spank your monkey while thinking about being forced to suck some hulking dude's veiny tool in a dark back alley. Whatever floats your boat, you've become a little bit fixated with the idea of having sex with another guy. +Hey, it's cool...fantasy is a wonderful thing. Action, however, is an entirely different matter. +As a practical consideration, you are married and you're almost certainly convinced there's no way in hell your old lady will understand and accept your urges. Take a quick spin over to the ""GLBT Chatter"" board on the Lit Forum and you will find many more guys like you: fixated on the idea but terrified of doing anything about it. +Let me guess: You've been married a long time and you find yourself vastly more sexually charged than your ""vanilla"" wife. She's lost interest completely or will only do it in the dark, under the covers in the missionary position. Yet you are hornier than ever. You're frustrated – very frustrated – and you've developed a gnawing itch to explore the sublimated bi side you've had since you were younger. You're not attracted to men romantically (yech!) and still love to fuck women (and would, if your wife ever actually deigned to open her legs for you). But you keep thinking about how it would feel to lick and swallow a big hard cock or get your ass royally fucked. You want it bad and you're thinking about how you could make your fantasy come to life. Am I right? +Well, if you're that guy, there are three things you can do. First, you can put about six glasses of wine into your wife, gulp hard, and share your inclinations with her. You probably won't do this because it scares the living shit out of you. Option two is to do absolutely nothing and keep secretly watching man-on-man porn on your computer, flogging your dolphin and bemoaning your situation. The vast majority of guys will do this because it's the path of least resistance and we're lazy by nature. The final option is to act on your urges. Only a few will dare to traverse this rocky and winding trail. +I was one of those few. I lived that lifestyle for the last four years of a now defunct quarter-century long marriage. Rather than telling you my whole sordid tale here, suffice it to say that I had plenty of experience in the world of secret married cocksucking. So, for the benefit of curious guys everywhere, I thought I'd share a few insights and tips for those of you considering this path. Let's get started! +First, since married guys are generally a wee bit squeamish about hanging out in gay bars or frequenting the cum-stained stalls of the local adult store, the logical place to start your quest is Craigslist.org or Squirt.org. Be advised that sane, masculine tops with rock-hard 8"" dicks and a place of their own are rarer than pink unicorns on Craigslist and – to put it quite bluntly – married cocksuckers who can't host are a dime a dozen. Squirt is probably a little safer and a little gayer than the Russian roulette that is Craigslist, the basic membership is free and the ""shopping"" is interesting. . Hey...do both if you want. I did. +Obviously, you need a double secret e-mail address and a fool-proof computer security strategy for all of this. More on that in a bit... +You can browse through CL, Squirt and various chat rooms and maybe contact guys who meet your minimum criteria (such as ""can host"" or ""doesn't seem like a serial killer""). However, I recommend you take the process into your own hands and create a good ad or profile. Be honest about who you are and what you want. Put in a little detail about your specific interests in your copy. Don't just post ""Want to suck a big throbbing cock right now!"" Take some time with it to sell yourself and try to appeal to the good guys out there who are less likely to be lying sacks of shit or, god forbid, dangerous. +Bonus Tip: Include a pic of some kind in your ad, preferably a nice cock shot and not an image you clipped out of a family portrait shot at Wal-Mart in 1996. The point is people are far more likely to respond if you include a pic. Go figure. +Next, swallow hard (so to speak) and post your ad. Modify it if you don't like the response you get. Be patient, for god's sake. You've waited years to wrap your lips around a fat juicy cock, you can wait a week or so longer to find one that happens to be attached to a decent, non-crazy guy. Trade some e-mails and try to find out what he wants. For example, does he only get off if you're wearing a pair of his wife's panties on your head? Does he expect to bend you over a picnic table and ream you bareback on the first date? Is he, god forbid, a pit sniffer? +Bonus Tip: I avoided guys who replied in one-line ""grunts,"" couldn't spell CAT or were fixated on one thing (""I luv giving road head!""). My experience was that smarter, versatile guys seem to be better in bed, more discreet and...well...smarter. Smart is sexy for me. +A lot of married guys prefer other married guys because you're ""both in the same boat"" and are unlikely to rat each other out. This is generally true. However, the idea of finding some hunky neighbor or some other safe dude to become a regular secret suck buddy is kind of a (ahem!) pipe dream. Chances are it will be a one-shot (ha!) deal. +(An important note from the author about being with bi guys vs. gay guys: In my humble opinion, gay guys give way better head. End of important note.) +(Another important gay-related note: You might be struggling with the whole ""Does this make me gay?"" thing. Here's the simple test: Picture a perfect naked woman and a perfect naked man lying side by side on the floor and both beckoning to you to have your way with them. Whose bones are you gonna jump first?) +Okay, at this point you've found Mr. Right and it's time to set up your mystery date. You should absolutely, 100%, no exceptions – seriously dude – arrange to meet the guy for coffee or a drink first and check him out. If he refuses, he's probably lying his ass off about something (e.g., weighs 400 pounds, has a 2-inch dick, hasn't showered in a month, is outright batshit crazy, all of the above). Try to arrange to meet near wherever you'll presumably be doing the dirty deed. If you click, you're off to cocksucking heaven in 10 minutes. If you don't click, you suddenly remember a dentist's appointment across town. +Okay, now for the risks. I worried less about STDs than about nut cases, but like I said earlier, it pays to be patient and find that clean, sane, smarter- than-average married guy and you reduce all the those risks. They are out there so, again, be patient. +Here's the real risk: Getting caught. You are cheating on your wife and almost certainly leaving an evidence trail behind you. I thought I was Mr. Careful about this, but my ex was suspicious by nature and knew just enough about computers to be dangerous. As a result, I am now divorced and broke. Don't get me wrong: I'm much, much happier...but I'm still suffering the just and well- earned consequences of being dishonest and unfaithful. I caused a good woman a lot of undeserved pain and guilt is a very shitty thing. But I digress... +Anyway, I'm obviously no tech security whiz, but in hindsight I'd never use a shared computer to do any of this stuff. Even on your personal laptop, always delete the browsing history every time and use ""In Private"" browsing or some version of it. Whatever secret e-mail host like gmail or Yahoo you choose, select a password that would literally never occur to your wife. Always log out of shit instead of using the ""keep me signed in"" function. Still, unless you're Bill Fucking Gates or something, your computer activity will always be a risk. You have been warned. +Bonus tip: All of this is immensely simpler if you happen to be traveling on business. You're alone in a hotel room, horny, with your laptop, you can meet the guy in the lobby bar and not really expose yourself badly...Welcome to Geographic Bachelorhood! When I traveled, I basically viewed the local Craigslist ""Casual Encounters"" section as a phone book for ""Dial-A- Cocksucker."" And I traveled a lot... +Bonus bonus tip: If you're a potential married cocksucker who does not travel, post a CL ad offering your oral services to business guys in their hotel rooms. Trust me, there are plenty of married ""straight"" and bi guys sitting in hotel rooms within 10 miles of you who are shopping online for a cocksucker right now. +Does all this work? I'm guessing that even with no small amount of experience, precautions and proven techniques, I still had a ""conversion rate"" of less than 50 percent after setting up a man meat meeting. Guys, as you know, are assholes about keeping appointments. They would get cold feet (or a better offer) and just wouldn't show up. Or, sometimes, we would meet and one or both of us would say, ""Nah, not my type."" +Among successful hookups, I'd say roughly a third were bad, a third were okay and a third were absolutely fantastic. I was particularly fond of one very, very skilled younger guy who looked right in my eyes and gave me my first ""shocker"" right as I was about to cum down his throat. I think my wad blew a hole through the back of his skull when he popped that wet finger up my tailpipe. Then there were the two very well-endowed guys who decided to bring out my submissive side for an entire day. Ahhh...good times...and I will write about them soon. +Here's the bottom (har!) line: Know the risks and weigh them against how much you crave this experience. Chances are, if you're halfway careful, you will get away with it the first time, probably the second, etc. But the risk grows over time and you can get (dare I say it?) cocky. You'll get sloppy about your computer habits or she'll start to wonder whether you really played poker with the boys Tuesday night and check your alibi. (You did have an alibi, right?) You will be living a secret life and only you will know if the thrills outweigh the chills. +If I could jump in Mr. Peabody's Wayback machine and change anything, I would have screwed up my courage ten years ago and told my ex that I was deeply unhappy with our sex life and wanted to try new things. She may have dismissed it with contempt, decided I was gay after all and tossed me out...but there was a glimmer of a chance that she might have understood. Either way, I could have avoided all of the dishonesty I engaged in while I was married by being honest about sex with a woman I professed to love. Poor communication is the death spiral of any marriage and this is important stuff that should be talked about. +Fortunately, I have talked like that with the woman I love now...and she gets it. Ironically, she'd flirted with going the bi route herself during the latter stages of her own long separation, so my confessions didn't make her brain explode. And honestly, our sex life as a couple is so amazing and so far beyond my wildest dreams, I simply don't feel the bi urge as often. But I may someday, and she knows that. I suspect it's only a matter of time before we invite another man or woman (or both) into our bed. That, kids, will be fun when the time comes because we'll do it right and choose the lucky person or persons wisely using the same techniques I learned in the good old bad old days. +Thus ends my advice column for the married bicurious guy. I will try to find time to write about some of my more interesting adventures and post them for your amusement in the ""Gay Male"" category (they should have one for ""Occasionally Gay,"" dammit). In the meantime, love any and all feedback – especially from other veterans of the bi/married wars who have their own thoughts to share." +73,A Block Party,RedMonkeyButt,How To,2012-03-23,2012-03-23,2022-01-04 08:24:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-block-party,Crawfish rule! How to cook them.,"['Block Party', 'Cooking', 'Crawfish', 'Crawfish Boil', 'Non-Erotic']",4.5,"Howdy, I'm RedMonkeyButt, and hopefully by the end of this article you will not only know what a crawfish is, but how to cook and enjoy them as well. I will not go through the ins and outs of catching the little buggers because not all of you have a good creek running through your backyard. Instead, you will have to hunt through the wilds of the grocery store to find yourself some finger-licking goodness. Not a fan of crawfish, you can substitute shrimp for this and skip a few steps. +First, you need to know how many people are coming to the party. Crawfish are considered party food, do not try to dispute this because you will not win that argument. You will need 3-5 pounds of fresh live crawfish for every person coming to the party. This is because, relative to the size of the live crawfish, the tail meat is actually pretty small. One would think it's not worth the work that goes into it. One would be wrong. For a typical block party here we figure that a minimum of 20 pounds of crawfish is needed. You can get less and include some fried fish and boiled shrimp in the mix. +Get thyself to the grocery store, dear reader, and pick up the following: +> Live crawfish. Make sure they are live and in a mesh bag. +> Some baby red potatoes. Size doesn't matter, just make sure the potatoes are > good. +> Fresh ears of corn. Do not be a coward in this, get the corn that's still in > silk and husks. +> A bunch of lemons. A BUNCH. +> A couple onions. Or more than a couple. Maybe a few. +> Your favorite sausage. It has to be something that can be boiled. +> 2-3 bags of crawfish boil. Louisiana makes a good crawfish and shrimp boil > in either powdered form or as bagged spices. Either of these will work, but > you'll need several packages. Liquid crab boil works as well if that's all > you can get hold of. +When you get home, put the crawfish in a very large ice chest. Don't have one? Go back to the store and get one, or borrow your neighbors. If he's wanting to eat your crawfish, he can share his ice chest for the purging. Now is the time to clear out any dead crawfish from your handy mesh bags. Fill the ice chest with the crawfish and then try your best to drown them. Add a little bit of salt to the water and let the crawfish purge. I'm not talking ocean salty here, but there needs to be some salt in the water. After a few hours, check on the mudbugs and change the water if it's really nasty. Chunk any dead ones at this time, as well. Do this every few hours until the water is clear. I usually purge crawfish for 24 hours before a big party. +After you have purged them for a day, it's time to get ready for the boil. Get your biggest, baddest boiling pot out of storage and put it on an outdoor burner. Turkey fryers are large enough for this. Fill it about half full with water. You don't have to get fancy with this, use the hose and make it easy on yourself. Dump one bag of the boil seasoning into the water and stir it around for a bit with a stick or big wooden spoon or kayak paddle. Set this so that it starts to boil and get to work on the veggies. +By now, you should have had some kids shucking the corn. If not, do this first and get as much of the silk off as you can. Do not use one of those sissy silk brushes, just use your hands - they're cheaper. If you got some big taters, cut them in half. Otherwise, leave them whole. Cut the ears of corn and the lemons in half. Take the onions and cut the ends off and then cut them in half. Discard the papery skins and the first couple layers and then cut these in half again. Cut the sausage into manageable pieces, too. Add all of this vegetation to the pot of boiling spicy water. If you have a basket that goes into the pot, use it. Those things make life easier. When the potatoes are fork tender and the corn is cooked, pull the mess out and put it in an aluminum roasting pan for serving. Leave the lemons and onions in the pot. +Now, this is the fun part. Take a large scoop, or the shovel from the kids beach toy pile, or anything big enough to get a large number of crawfish from the ice chest to the pot and start moving those puppies to the water. You may want to add another half bag of the seasoning before doing this. Get the crawfish in the pot and get the lid on it quick, fast, and in a hurry. Weight the lid, too, because they will try to escape. You don't want them to escape because they will attack your toes and scare small children. Leave them in there for 3 minutes and then remove them to wherever is convenient. Repeat this until all of the crawfish are completely dead. Do NOT try to cook any crawfish that was already dead before you tried to kill them. +To eat a crawfish, you hold the tail where it meets the main body, pinch, and then twist the tail away from the body. The real hardcore folks like to suck the juices from the head. Go ahead if that's what you like. Otherwise, discard the head and get back to the tail. Pull the first couple sections of shell off the broken end and then put the meat between your lips. While pinching the end of the tail, pull that meat out of there. Repeat for as long as needed to get a full stomach. +If you cannot get crawfish, or just don't prefer them, you can substitute unpeeled shrimp instead. It takes significantly less shrimp to feed each person - anywhere from ½ to 1 pound per person. Keep everything else the same. +You will also need one whole roll of paper towels for every two people. I recommend the cheaper brown paper towels. Feel free to message me on the forum, or send me feedback with the replying email field filled out if you would like more recipes using crawfish tail meat. Remember, it is generally better to get more crawfish than you need than to not get enough. Peel the remaining crawfish and bag the tail meat for later use. Discard the shells and the boiling water as you would any other trash - in a neighboring yard and trash can. *wink*" +74,The Blow Job Ch. 1,Beecee,How To,2000-10-11,2000-10-11,2022-01-04 08:39:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-blow-job-ch-1,An introduction to the art of fellatio.,"['Amount Cum', 'Blow Job', 'Cock', 'Deep Throat', 'Good Blow', 'Man Cock']",4.15,"Many women have only a basic idea of how to give a man a good blow job. Most seem to think that by closing their mouth around a mans cock and bobbing their head lustily up and down as fast as they can until he shoots his load constitutes a good blow job. This is true to a point and all well and good for a quick blow job in the car or under the office desk when time is limited. If you want to bring him off quickly then this is an extremely satisfying way, but what does the man's cock really want? You should pick a time when you will not be disturbed in a reasonably lit area so that both you and he can see what's going on. Overcome any shyness that you may have and let him see his cock disappear deep inside your mouth, observe and make a mental note of the responses from his cock and indeed the look of pleasure on his face that your tongue and lips are providing are the first steps to master. Pull his foreskin down to reveal his corona and run the tip of your tongue around the base of it. +Close your mouth onto his cock and flick the underside of his corona with your tongue. Talk to him, tell him his cock is wonderful and that you are not going to stop until he cums in your mouth. Always stay in control and don't ask which part he likes best, find that out for yourself. Keep your tongue, mouth and hands active. Cup his balls and gently scratch with your finger nails the area between his anus and balls. If you are wary of the amount of cum he will produce, just as he is about to erupt, place your thumb and forefinger at the base of his cock and gently squeeze to restrict the flow. The amount of cum a man produces is a good indication of how much he has enjoyed what you have done for him. Most men who have been stimulated in this way will produce copious amounts. Slow down and relax are the golden rules. +Every woman should also be aware of the most sensitive and sensual moment that a man's cock experiences. Most mornings, men wake up with a hard on, referred to generally as piss proud, usually but not always after alcohol the night before. This moment is about two or three minutes after he has relieved himself and is the ideal time to give him a sensual blow job. +What position should you be in? Because of the structure of his cock, as well as the structure of your mouth, lips, tongue and teeth, you can provide the highest degree of sensation for yourself and your partner by kneeling between his legs with him either sat down or standing up and with your head tipped slightly back, approaching his cock from the bottom rather than from the side or top. This will enable you to read the expressions on his face and observe how his cock is reacting to your stimulation. Alternatively, lie on your back on the bed and position yourself so that your head is just hanging over the edge. Relax and make yourself as comfortable as possible and open your mouth ready to accept him. He should approach you on his knees and as soon as you have his cock in your mouth, take control of the situation by placing both of your hands on his buttocks. This will allow you to guide him in and out at your own pace and to stop him thrusting and gagging you. + **Types of Blow Jobs** +There are three types, the quickie (this page) for when there is not much time e.g. in the shop doorway on your way home from the pub, in the car or even in aunt Mabel's living room when she is making the tea. Pure sensual oral love making when you really want to do something special and you have plenty of time (see Sensual Oral Sex Pt. I & II). Deep Throat which needs plenty of practice to be able to accommodate his cock fully down your throat and past your tonsils without choking you, (see Pt. IV - ""Deep Throat"").

My name is Mistress Sugar, and I want to tell you about the time I held a blow job school. A blow job school, what the hell is that? Well, you see I had a resort type of thing where we did all sorts of workshops, working with heteroflexible people. But once I got married, I decided I would do workshops in other things, and I put the word out there. Voices came back to tell me what to cover in my courses. It was quite interesting as it turns out so many women were not that comfortable with their skills in fellatio. They could be hoovering a guy's dick for a long time and not getting any result. Perhaps I am full of myself, but I consider myself to be talented in this area. My husband can testify for this. Did I think maybe I should impart my knowledge to these women? +I loaded the prospectus online and got back a few applications. There was a little thing in there, which I thought might put people off. I started this course with seven or eight girls of various age who were all keen to learn the intricate art of oral sex. +In the first few moments, one of my students piped up. +""Mistress Sugar, I know we are going to learn how to give head according to your techniques, but I am interested to see how you got to this point. Do you remember your first blowjob?"" +""Thank you for asking me that, Charlie. I do remember, and I remember it very well. Want to hear a story?"" +""Yes, the more we get to know you, the better this experience will be."" +""How right you are. Well, I was a lot younger than I am now and..oh gosh..."" +I came over all sullen. A tear rolled down my face. +""Mistress, you seem to be getting upset. Sorry if I asked too intimate a question."" +""No, I always get upset about the first time because he is no longer with us, and I never got to tell him how special he was to me. But he was a bit older than me, and he was a lot more sexually experienced. I used to go and stay at his house because I was friends with a housemate of his. I used to sleep in a little spare bedroom when I went to parties there, and when things started going on between this guy and me, I was scared because I hadn't done anything sexual before. One night, he was there in a bathrobe. It was dark, and there was this moonlight streaming through the window. Illuminating his body and it was eerie. Sparsely haired skin. I have this vivid memory of having him say ""suck my cock"" in the most seductive of tones. I had my hand on his cock and thought...well I told him, ""what if I don't know what I am doing?"" His response was ""well, I will most certainly teach you!"" +""Must have been nice to have such an experienced lover."" +""Yes. He had this nice thick cock, and I remember the satin feel of the skin. The lack of hair, I think he shaved. Well textured cock and it was like this instinct just kicked in. I knew what to do. He cannot have lasted any longer than three minutes. He stopped me and took himself out of my mouth and said, ""I don't want to startle you with my splat moment"". Ha, he always called it the splat moment because it did use to go splat with his ejaculations being so forceful. But he didn't want me to cum in my mouth because he thought it might frighten me. He did it all over my tits instead. I was pleased, I had the end result, and I have been successful ever since at giving head, so I am going to teach you girls how I do it. Sorry if it didn't make a lot of sense. The coffee isn't kicked in yet!"" +Jack was my first lover, and he was gone to time now, but he taught me so much about sex, and he is responsible for where I am today. I had these girls' attention, and I started to explain how I give head. +""The first thing I learnt was that you don't just go straight to the cock. You have a man's whole body to play with. Work out what works for the man. Some men like to have their nipples tweaked. Pinching, licking, sucking. Some men, it has no effect at all. He's got a body that you can run your fingers over in a gentle and serpentine fashion. It might even be a bit ticklish. You want to knead those thighs, and while you are doing that, you can see his cock stirring with anticipation. A passionate kiss never goes amiss either. The type of kiss with a lot of tongues involved and ooh, I can just imagine it now. Lips pressed together with tongues interacting one another in a slow, languid fashion. Delicious and I find the precursor stuff to be so important. It is like the foreplay to the main event. +Now when I give head, I like to have a relatively firm grasp of the man's cock. Instead of me just talking about, why don't we do the thing mentioned in the course materials? I actually thought it would put you off. Are you ready to meet them?"" +""Yes!"" +It was at the moment, I bought a guy for each woman. You didn't see them. But you had this glory hole set up in my house, and seven cocks were poking through the holes. I wanted to see how the girls were going to go first. Presented with penises, most amusing in their various states of erection. The more I talked about blow jobs, the stiffer they grew. +""I know you girls don't have the luxury of touching the man's body but are you ready for this sensation? First grasp of the cock with your dominant hand. You gotta be able to hold this steady. You might just apply this soft massaging touch to the cock along the shaft. What I find works best is if you use a bit of lube. Some men prefer dry masturbation, but lube works better in this situation, I feel. It is getting them prepared for what's to come. You will notice the lube we have is flavoured so it won't taste so awful."" +So good, so far. But I could sense hesitation in the air. +""I see you doing it, girls. Come on. Don't be afraid. Ah, that is the sound I wanna hear. So brilliant, the sound of the lube. Hmm, I heard that too. Actually, this is enticing me to do this with my own man!"" +Yes, I had my husband nude standing next to me. He would get the hand version of my instructions because hey I cannot orate my knowledge and suck dick at the same time. +""Yes, well, let's masturbate those cocks, shall we? Just slowly, not too fast. Slowly does it, make sure you hold onto the base of that penis. Slow movements like a corkscrew. Very slow, making him rock hard. Look at that...fancy that, I have eight erect cocks in my presence. The boys are getting rather turned on by this mysterious scenario. I rather like teasing my man myself. +Anyhow, you see that hand that you are wanking with serves a purpose because it is wet. You can if you so desire, but you don't really need to go as far as deep throating. It is a cool thing to do, apparently if you watch a lot of porn. Everyone thinks they have to do it. But some of us have a gag reflex. I am one of those women. I find sometimes men really don't notice the difference. A hand is a lot more agile and flexible than a throat, I think. +Girls, you might want to start getting your tongue and just give a little bit of a lick on the head. See where the very top of the penis is that is the glans. Where it meets, the shaft is called the frenulum. Pay attention to that spot. It can be very sensitive, so be aware of that, but it can feel delicious too. Just little licks and pinch your lips over the head of his cock. Maybe without warning, you would then slip that cock into your mouth. +Ooh, that cock head is swollen and yummy. I want you do do this action where it is a bit of suction and tongue. So move your mouth around his cock. Don't do that bopping head up and down thing, it doesn't work. You gotta maintain a bit of suction on his cock and use the tongue to hula hoop around the head of his dick. Flicker that tongue just a bit. Don't forget what hands are supposed to be doing. Give that cock a proper stroke while you do that. I see what you girls are doing, and you are picking this up really good. You know to place that cock near your cheeks. No teeth. Massage is where it is at, with all that sloppy spit. Cock tastes good, doesn't it?"" +Little cock worshippers are what I had here. Such good girls. +""While you are doing this, you don't just pay attention to his cock, he has balls too. Stop sucking and perhaps fondle his balls. You know, you might wanna put one in your mouth. I see some of you are afraid to do this. You don't need to suck on his balls. Touch them, though. You know for some men, anal stimulation is an enjoyable experience even outside the blow job scenario. We are not going to go there just yet, but if your man is open to the idea, I do suggest inserting a dildo into his ass when giving head. You would be amazed at how good it is for him, and it is a learning curve for yourself. Master class material. If you continue with the course, this is something I will cover a bit later. +I rather like what I see here. Now, this next part is going to be slightly tricky cos you can't see your guy. Eyesight is crucial when giving head. You would have media dictate you have eyes shut. But that should not be happening. Have eyes closed for some of the time but not all the time. That allows you to get into the groove. But you might want to casually glance downwards and see what his balls are doing. Balls will do different things depending on how close he is to orgasm. It is like a warning check. But you also need to look upwards at him too. You are worshipping his cock. That cock you are sucking. You are on your knees, giving prayers to this dick. You need to show your man that he is the idol you are worshipping. There is no better way to do this than to look right at him when you are giving him head. He may not notice, but if he does, I would be careful. That is insanely erotic material right there and an insane feedback loop. Yes, it is me who is sucking your cock, no one else. Get ready to squirt, guys. +Now I don't know if you girls are comfortable with the end result. There is no right or wrong answer for what we do with cum. You have been licking and sucking, and I figure by now, you know something is going to happen. It is the taste of it. Precum makes it salty. Even when he is cumming, you can work out what you need to do. If you are a mouth person, you can continue to do what you are doing but do not overstimulate. If you swallow, good. It can get a bit messy sometimes, and it can be difficult. One might even choke if the lover is rough. Spitting is really not on. If you don't want him to cum in your mouth, he can always give you a facial or elsewhere on the body, like the tits. That is my preferred way of ending things. So for that, you would just stop what you are doing with your mouth and let your hand take over. You jerk him off to finish. I haven't been giving my guy a blow job while doing this. I can certainly finish him off, though! +Let's beat that cock. Let's jerk the guys off. And you know how in porno films the girls always sit there with their mouth open, tongue out. It is actually quite a hot thing when I think about it. Cum all over my face. Ooh yes. I love your cock, I need your cock. Cock is delicious. Your cum is delicious!"" +Well, there I had it. I didn't give my husband a blowjob, but I gave him a handjob which was just as effective. I watched on as the girls applied the skills and over the space of five minutes, all the guys ejaculated. Some girls swallowed. Some took facials. I was delighted to see that, and glad no one spat it out. Spitting isn't very ladylike." +76,Blow Job Tips for the Insecure,honey_bee13,How To,2007-09-02,2007-09-02,2022-01-04 08:26:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/blow-job-tips-for-the-insecure,Get out of a rut & give him mind-boggling head.,"['Blow Job', 'Blow Job Techniques', 'Blow Job Tips', 'Head', 'Oral Sex Tips', 'Relationship Advice', 'Sex Advice', 'Vacuum']",4.34,"First of all, let me establish the most important aspect of giving a blow job -- confidence! A lot of women are self-conscious when it comes to giving head. While I can certainly understand being unsure of yourself, that's something you have to get over quickly in order to improve. Even if you're not the world's greatest, if he's getting a blowjob, he's pretty much already on Cloud 9. I'm not saying there's no wrong way to give head, because there is. I'm just saying that if his dick is in your mouth, for him, things are already off to a great start. +If you still feel unsure, tell your partner that you're nervous. Most guys will be not only understanding but turned on by what they'll see as your ""innocence."" They will be more than happy to guide you to what they like. +Also important is something that many people overlook -- position. Both partners have to be comfortable, which admittedly can be difficult at times. Also, the right position can give your man the perfect view of your handiwork.

This puts me in the perfect position in case he wants to finger me. +2\. He sits on a low couch or chair and I sit on the floor, leaning into his legs to support myself. +3\. He stands up and I kneel on a pillow. +4\. He lays down (with his head propped with a pillow) and I lay between his legs with my arms propped up. +A few more somewhat silly things before you begin: Taking frequent breaks is not only a necessity for you (unless you enjoy lockjaw and chapped lips), it can also allow him to last longer and build up a more explosive orgasm. Don't feel bad if you need to stop -- just don't do it abruptly. Second, you may want to have what to me are a few sex ""essentials"" on hand: water/drink, lip balm, lube, and of course, a hair band to hold hair away from your face. +I like to start off by gently holding his cock in my hand (hard or not) and slowing kissing and licking just the head. The point is to establish to him that you love his cock would love nothing more than to give him a blowjob. At this point, you can also stroke him very, very gently. The lightest touch can feel really good as he's anticipating things getting more intense. +Before he starts to get too hard, I also like to put his entire cock in my mouth. My boyfriend's cock is quite large so this is often the only way he'll feel the whole thing in my mouth! Even if you can ""deep throat"" your boyfriend, he may still enjoy the sensation of having his cock in your mouth when it's soft. +As he gets harder, I stroke him with a little more pressure and continue licking, but this time going all the way up and down the shaft. The wetter this is, the better, so don't be afraid to slobber. Sounds gross, but it's true. Once he's gotten pretty hard, I move on to literally sucking his cock. Rather than just moving your mouth up and down his shaft, actually sucking on it (very gently at first) feels more intense for him. Another important tip is to try not to let his penis out of your mouth completely. As you pull him back out of your mouth, leave the head of his penis in and continue stroking and sucking until you go back down. Again, don't be too self-conscious. Sucking, slurping noises are a definite possibility, and trust me, most guys eat it up. Along those lines, also don't be afraid to do anything else that comes naturally, such as making noises or touching yourself. It turns guys on to know that sucking on his cock turns you on. +I mentioned earlier that my boyfriend's cock is big. I do deep throat him from time to time, but I have to adjust to it and I can't do much with his cock once it's in there! He generally likes it better when I have less in my mouth but can do more with it. I place my hand over the base of his shaft (the part my mouth isn't covering) and stroke him constantly whatever I'm doing to him with my mouth. So, just remember that you can still give good blowjobs even if you're not a sword swallower. +As I'm sucking him and stroking him, I continue to make things interesting with my tongue and hands. My tongue flicks the head of his penis as I suck it and swirls around his shaft as I suck up and down. With your hands, you can stroke his penis or do whatever he normally enjoys as far as balls and all that good stuff are concerned. +Here are a few more techniques we both like: +1\. The ""melting ice cream"" method -- It's just how it sounds. I think I read it in a women's magazine and it really works! Just pretend like his cock is an ice cream cone and it's a hot summer day. It's melting fast and you've got to eat it all up. Then, just treat his cock exactly the way you would the ice cream. Another option here of course is to actually put whipped cream on his dick and then get every last drop off. +2\. The ""confused cock"" method -- I made up the name, do you like it? We discovered this by accident but it drives him crazy. While sucking on his cock in one direction, I will gently stroke his cock the other direction, then switch. So, for example, I'll suck back gently on his cock while stroking it downwards towards his stomach, then switch, moving my mouth down towards his stomach and pulling my hand up on his cock toward my mouth. +3\. ""Vacuum"" -- You got it - extreme sucking. My boyfriend likes to let me suck as hard as I can while he gently pulls back. Not every guy is this into having his cock pulled so don't do this with no warning. +When your partner is ready to come, hopefully he will let you know (or you'll be able to tell by his body language and sounds.) Girls have different feelings about cum. Some love it, some hate it, and some are indifferent. In my experience, it is worth it to me to swallow. For most guys it is an extreme turn-on; the perfect way to end the blow job. It only lasts a few seconds, so if the taste is unpleasant, you can just tough it out and then discreetly drink some water. However, don't force yourself to do anything that makes you uncomfortable. If you still want to provide a mega turn-on for your partner but don't want to swallow, there's a slightly less conventional option. As your partner is coming, take him out of your mouth and stroke him quickly (maintaining the same speed of your blowjob) and let him cum over your chest and stomach. Some people find this odd but to others it's a big turn-on. If you do want to do it, you might want to discuss it with your partner first just so he's not confused when the time comes. +Of course, this is what my partner and I enjoy and not everyone else will, but hopefully these ideas will help you break out of a blowjob rut or become more confident about giving head. Above all, get a partner who makes you feel confident and secure, and you'll feel brave enough to try anything that turns them on." +77,Blow Jobs: A Woman's Guide...,Harley Quinn,How To,2001-09-18,2001-09-18,2022-01-04 08:26:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/blow-jobs-a-womans-guide,How to give great oral to your man.,"['Blow Job', 'Blow Jobs', 'Ridge Head']",4.08,"**Blow Jobs: A Woman's Guide To Pleasing Her Man** +First, I need to inform those of us who aren't self-made experts on the male anatomy: +1\. Just because his penis is bigger than your clit doesn't mean he's any easier to get off. Men need just as much variety and attention as women do. +2\. He's not going to get off every time. You have your off-days, and so does he. +3\. He's not going to leave you if you're not any good in bed. If he does, he's not worth the effort. +4\. He can still enjoy the sensations of head without cumming. +5\. ""Too gentle"" isn't enough. ""Too sensitive"" isn't very good either. +Now, keeping that in mind, the first step to giving good head is to relax... and that goes for the giver and the receiver. The easiest position for this is to get in between his legs, lay just over his cock, and brace yourself on your left forearm. +Next, gather some saliva in your mouth (if this is a problem, for about $1 at any sex shop, you can find little one-time flavored lube packets) and S L O W L Y take the head--just the head--in your mouth. Gently lick the corona (the ridge around the head), not spending too much time in any one spot. Lick the frenulum (the V-shaped ridge under the head), and around the urethra (piss- hole). Take him out of your mouth (slowly, no teeth!), lube up your mouth, and go down farther (about half way.) If you can deep-throat, don't do it yet. You don't want to show him all your tricks in the first couple of minutes. As you come back up, lick the underside of his shaft in a figure-8 pattern, making sure to apply some suction. Vary these acts until he becomes rock-hard. +After he's fully hard, feel free to be a little harder and faster with him. _Note: the harder he gets doesn't necessarily mean the rougher you have to get with him. Emphasize variety by intensity, but remember not to be too light_. Do not bend his cock. Keep your tongue going around the corona, and on the shaft, your left side, a quarter inch below the head. If you want to deep throat him, now is the time. However, deep-throating doesn't constitute a good blow job. Look for signs that he's enjoying himself--what he says isn't always reliable. Listen to his breathing, watch the involuntary bucking of his hips, the twitching of his cock, and the pulling back of his cock. +When he's ready to cum, his cock and balls will draw up together. If you feel this and want to continue the sensation, firmly grab his balls and gently tug them down. Please remember that swallowing in itself isn't as important as letting him cum in your mouth. If you remove your mouth and finish him off with your hands, you're talking about taking away the source of pleasure and replacing it with something that he can do himself. If he wants a handjob, he doesn't need you. What you do with it is irrelevant. +Remember: make sure that you're both having fun." +78,Blowjob 101,engaged_88,How To,2007-04-29,2007-04-29,2022-01-04 08:26:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/blowjob-101,A tried-and-true guideline for women.,"['Beginner', 'Blow Job', 'Blowjob', 'First', 'Help', 'Ma', 'Proven']",4.19,"I know you've seen a billion of them on here; ""How To Give A Guy Great Head,"" ""How To Please Him,"" etc. I thought I would add my two cents because there are some things I haven't seen on here, plus I absolutely love giving my guy head, so my advice will probably be pretty awesome. +#1) Make sure you are both ready. There is nothing more horrible than saying you're going to give a guy head and then not following through with it; trust me, I know from experience. So, before your first time, make sure you are absolutely, 100% okay with it. If you and your guy have been having sex or have been ""active"" then the tips are going to be different than someone who hasn't done anything with the guy they're trying to please. For a couple who have been active and are comfortable with each other, head will come easier; you already know the other's reactions, their tendancies, etc. So, the main thing you have to remember is that, no matter what you do, ithe ending won't be some horror story; you'll just have to keep doing it until you get it right, which is half the fun. However, for a couple who have just met or are just starting their intimacy, you have to learn the signs, and this ""How-To"" guide is specifically for you. So anyway, make sure you're ready. +#2) Don't expect too much the first time. Few women are experts at it their first time around, and most are still getting over how disgusted or awkward they feel. Feel free to explain this to your guy; honesty works wonders. Let him know that you're nervous, but don't worry him and don't make him feel like he's forcing you to give him head. Huge turn-off. It won't be horrible, because guys just like attention down there and anything they can get, they love (usually). +#3) Don't jump right into it. Flirt with each other, get a little horny, get in the mood first. Don't just start going down on him because you want to get it over with or think that's what he wants. You need to be in the right mood, otherwise it won't feel right. +#4) When you do start, start slowly. Slowly take his head into your mouth, just the head, and listen to his reaction; I promise, you will get a very good/pleased reaction. Make a note of this reaction; this is probably what he will almost always do when he's pleased. Personally, my guy sighs and moans a little, and it is the best sound in the world to me. Your guy might do the same, he might gasp, he might jerk his hips, he might grab your hair; whatever he does, he is showing you pleasure and you need to pay attention to that. Slowly work your way down further and further. Not too fast, because you need to condition your body to this new and wierd activity. Stuff is supposed to go in your mouth then down your throat, not in and out, so you will feel wierd. Don't feel pressured to ""deap-throat"" it because you will gag and lose all desire to give head. +#5) When you start to feel comfortable, then change it up. There is nothing more boring to a guy than just straight up, down, up, down, etc. etc. etc., especially for a guy who has had a blowjob before. Just like when you masturbate; you don't just do the same exact motion until you cum, do you? You change your technique, you try new things, and you do this often. I have been giving the same guy head for two years, and he still loves it because I still change it up. Try flicking your tongue under his shaft. Swirl the head around with your tongue. Rotate your head. Start pumping the base half while giving head to the top half. Change your rhythm. Go slower, quicker, tighten your lips to add friction, flatten your tongue around the sensitive spot underneath the head. Play with his balls. P.S. Two VERY important notes here: Number One, be careful of your teeth; they hurt. Always pay attention to where your teeth are on his member. Number Two, do not play rough with his balls, if you decide to go there. Be very gentle, almost ticklish, and pay attention to grimacing/frowning/anything to show he is not happy. His balls are the most fragile spot and are not meant to be grabbed roughly or jerked around. They are meant for light sucking and licking, and light cupping and massaging. Some guys don't like any attention around their balls at all, so pay attention. +#6) Get ready for the finale. Have a plan beforehand what you intend to do here. Are you going to let him cum in your mouth? Somewhere on your body? In a cup? Are you going to swallow? I would suggest that, for your first time, either jack him off at the very end or let him cum somewhere on your body; face, chest, stomach, hair, whatever. Cum washes off, so don't get picky about it; let him go where he wants to go, if you decide to go this way. Head is all about pleasuring him, so give him a choice. However, do not let him cum in your mouth unless you are totally ready. When my guy came in my mouth for the first time, I gagged; I was SO not expecting the taste, and nothing is like it if you haven't tasted it before. So, if you let him cum in your mouth, have a cup ready, be ready to rush to the sink, ready to spit it out your car window, whatever; just be ready. And do not swallow it unless you really really want to or really really want to turn him on. To this day, I get stomachaches when I swallow my guy's cum, but I do it becuase it turns him on. Just remember that this is about him, not you. +Ok, so here is a summary: be sure you're ready, don't expect to give flawless head the first time, get in the mood first, start slow and work your way up, give him variety, and have a plan for what you will do when he cums. +Always, always, always make sure that you do what you are comfortable with and don't feel pressured. Also remember that he is a guy and any attention his penis gets is gonna feel great, especially the first time. So don't worry; there's nothing to be afraid of or get insecure about. And if he is the kind of great guy that deserves to be getting head, then remember that, even if you're horrible the first time, he is going to love it. ;) " +79,Blowjobs for Dummies,BatsandGlamour,How To,2002-11-12,2002-11-23,2022-01-04 08:26:28,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/blowjobs-for-dummies,1.

Reader's preferences add to the excitement,"['Balls Head', 'Feel Funny', 'Give Head', 'Good Mood', 'Lick Shaft', 'Loving Attention', 'Perineum Anus', 'Shaft Balls', 'Stray Hairs', 'Swirl Tongue']",4.65,"I recently wrote a story called ""How to Eat Pussy Like a Champ."" It was a labor of love. I was thrilled with the feedback I received. I got cheers from men. I got compliments and thanks from women. I also got several dinner invitations. For the record, I do like steak, but make me a well-prepared Italian dish and I'm putty in your hands. +What surprised me most were the comments I got from both men and women requesting and encouraging me to write a follow up piece about how to give a blowjob. Women wanted it so they could compare their technique or perhaps learn something new without having to bother their neighbor's husband. Men wanted it so they could hand it to their lady and avoid the discomfort of saying, ""While you're down there, honey, I'd like to give you some instructions on how to do it better."" Ouch – I can nearly feel the teeth marks. +Well OK, you know me, I'm more than happy to help. There's nobody that likes to be on the receiving end of a good BJ more than me. In fact, I bring my cock with me wherever I go for just such an occurrence. +Writing an article about how to go down on a woman, that was like a fish writing about how to swim. It's just something I truly love. But writing an article about how to give head to a man, oh boy. I can see the feedback now. ""Hey gay blade, why don't you stick to pussy and leave blowjobs for the chicks to write about."" Or, ""Hi, I'm Johnny from Hoboken. I loved your piece. Call me at 637-9648."" My friends, they'll never let it go. +Well, let me first say that I'm not gay. Although as Jerry Seinfeld put it, ""not that there's anything wrong with that."" +If my first article helped a few inexperienced guys please their women, I feel great about that. And if this piece helps a few more girls feel comfortable and confident and gives their guy greater satisfaction, I'll take the heat. That's what writing is about. +Ah, how fondly I remember my first blowjobs. Typically, the eager girl would put her lips over the head of my cock and frantically rub my shaft until I either came or developed a friction rash. Then just when I was excited enough to cum from all this attention, usually about two minutes, she'd pull my cock off her lips, so that she wouldn't taste any of the nasty sperm that shot out and made lovely patterns on my clothes. ""What's that on my jeans, mom? Glue!"" +Only years later did I discover that this was not in fact a blow job, it was being jerked off with a little tongue action. Sort of what I could do by myself, only a tad wetter. +What a disappointment. And yet, how could you blame her? It's not something that was taught in school, nor were the other girls any help – they didn't have anyone to teach them either. In most households, this was not discussed at the dinner table. ""Sweetheart, pass the salt, and lick my balls a little more tonight will you? How was school today kids?"" So here you had all these marginally satisfied guys running around wondering what was so great about blowjobs. I was one of them. +With the advent of video tape technology, we got to see a lot more blowjobs than we ever saw in the basement on the old 8mm projector. And there was sound! Moaning and groaning. At last, we got to see beautiful women sucking a cock so large that it belonged in the Jurassic age, using both hands and barely covering half of it, until the guy finally came a quart all over her face and tits. And you think we felt bad before? We went to our rooms and cried about how much nature had cheated us, and startled that a girl could take suck a large cock so far down her throat. No wonder they moaned. +Now with DVDs, we can see the same thing, only clearer. You haven't lived until you've seen a blowjob on DVD, watched on a large screen television. It looks like an episode out of ""Don't Try This At Home."" A huge face swallowing a python. It was intimidating to women and humiliating to men. +Now for the good news. You are about to read a **do** and **don't** article that will suggest how a woman can dramatically improve her BJ skills, if indeed they need improving. Some women out there love to suck a cock s much we love to lick pussies, and need no improvement at all – none. They live for it. They love the feel, the taste, the sight. They moan with pleasure when they suck. They slobber all over you. They rub a cock on their face like it's a wrinkle remover. To those women I say, ""Come to papa!"" But in any event, you _still_ may learn just one thing that will improve your performance, or clarify that you are as good as you thought. If so, it's worth reading – and you may have some fun. Read it at a party, that ought to spice things up! +Anatomy-wise, the penis is relatively uncomplicated. There's the head, shaft and balls. Hasn't changed much since the cave man. But let's get a little more technical. The entire head of the penis is called the glans. The crown itself, the ridge of flesh separating the glans and the shaft is called the corona. The meatus is the opening at the tip of the penis where urine and semen emit. And the frenulum is the underside of the corona where the circle of the corona comes together, and where the shaft connects to the corona, that 'V' shape. The scrotum is of course the sac that hangs below the penis and holds the testes. Under that is the perineum, or 'taint' area, leading to the anus. If you need photos, there are many, many websites that have them, if they're even needed. Got all that? They don't teach all this in health class as a way of improving your blowjobs do they? Hmm…maybe they should. +I wrote this information not to bore you, but because I don't want to describe it over and over in the rest of the article. As I've said before, I'm not a doctor. Yet, I've been to the doctor many times, never discussed blowjobs. He did stick his finger up my ass with a glove on though. And that was in the waiting room. So we made a deal, I won't practice medicine and he won't write about how to give a blowjob. Sounds like a better deal for me. +Now, here's the fun part, the **do's** and **don'ts** of giving a spectacular blowjob. These can put you in the BJ Hall of Fame. Where is it located you ask? In my display case next to the baseball trophies? It will have to remain a secret for now kids, but it's not in Canton, Ohio. +OK, you're kissing, you're rubbing, you've kissed your way down his neck and chest. You've lifted his shirt and kissed down his stomach, and you're unbuckling his belt. What now? +Watch any adult movie and what's the one thing they always **do** beautifully? They look into the lucky guy's eyes when they give him head, when it's physically possible. Why? It shows the connection they have with him. They're not just sucking a cock, they're sucking _his_ cock, and they want to taste _his_ cock. So start this practice early. When you're pulling off your fella's pants, begin looking in his eyes. An approving moan (would a gasp hurt?) or two when his cock springs free lets him know you're eager to please him and like what you see. + **Don't** pump his penis like you're milking a cow. _Gently_ (at least at first) rub his cock with your hands, making it as hard as possible. If you've gotten this far and he's not as hard as a rock yet, please come see me as soon as possible. Wait – did I write that? I mean, keep going. And don't just rub the top half of his cock, rub the entire cock, including in particular the glans and balls. The frenulum is incredibly sensitive and will send shivers through him – but I'll get back to that aspect. In the meantime, rub him all over, and don't forget his perineum and even his anus, lightly at this point. Again, I'll get back to that once the heat is on. + _Remember_ , the shaft of the penis doesn't have a heck of a lot of nerve endings. Its primary use, BJ wise, it to connect the sensitive head with the sensitive balls. The head of his cock and balls are where all the action takes place, so don't spend _too_ much time giving him the shaft. The more time you spend with your tongue and lips on his head and balls, the better head you'll be giving. Why do you think they call it head?? + **Do** talk to him. Tell him how much you love him, how much you want him, how much you want to suck his cock and how good you're going to make him feel. Now, I know this may be a bit uncomfortable for those uninitiated in the ways of dirty talk (hmm…another article in the making). But girls, I can't begin to tell you how arousing it is for us to know how excited you are and how much you enjoy what you're doing. Books have been written on just this subject. If you feel funny about it, and there's no reason you should, whether you've known the guy a week or have been married for 25 years, just start slow. +Perhaps ""I've been looking forward to this,"" or ""I can't wait to taste you,"" would get the ball rolling. Then simply go with the flow. Sure, if you want to say, ""God I love this cock…I'm going to suck your cock like it's never been sucked before…suck the cum right out of you…make you feel like you've died and gone to heaven…would you like that, baby? Would you like me to suck your cock hard and long until you squirt into my mouth? Because that's what I'd love to do…"" I guess that would be all right. But again, even if it's just an approving moan now and then. Anything is better than stone silence, where it seems like you're doing a chore. +The wetter the better, so **don't** skimp on the saliva. In other words, slobber all over his cock! If nothing else, all the licking it takes to do this is putting him in, let's say, a good mood. A jewelry good mood? Who knows. Certainly a dinner out good mood. More important, when you're pumping his lubricated rod with your hand, which is not such a bad idea, the saliva reduces the friction. So lick up and down his shaft with maximum drooling. Friction=bad, Wet=good. Comprende? + **Do** swirl your tongue around the head of his cock. It's the most sensitive area and responds well to this loving attention. Now here's a little secret that many people don't know and that I alluded to earlier. The frenulum, that little V shape under his cock head, is mucho sensitive. If you use your tongue to play with it, you'll be doing your good deed for the day. Likewise his meatus. Flick your tongue along the tip of his penis to get this area. The head of his penis is like your clit. Suck on it, swirl your tongue around it, bob your head up and down with your lips over his head, lick all the areas I just mentioned and you'll have him gasping for air. Another winner: while you're sucking and licking his cock head, circle your fingers in an 'OK' motion around just the base of his cock. Then, clamping tightly, 'jerk him off' in a mini motion of no more than an inch or so. It won't make him cum, but it's exquisite. + **Don't** stay in one spot doing just one thing. It becomes monotonous for both of you and begins to decay the pleasure after a while. When a guy goes down on you properly, he's kissing and licking all over, not just concentrating on one spot. Same thing with good head. Suck the top, lick the shaft, lick his balls, keep changing the pattern. _Except_ when he's just about to cum. When you're got him this deep into the pleasure zone, and you can tell from his words or his breathing that ejaculation is close at hand, now is _not_ the time to move away from what you're doing. Just keep it up until he cums. + **Do** lick and suck on his balls. Those two babies are his pleasure zones, shooting sparks inside his head. If you haven't been doing this, you've been unknowingly denying him a real source of pleasure. Go easy down there, needless to say, it's not the place to play handball. But licking and sucking on his balls, while your hands continue to caress his shaft – it just doesn't get much better than that. + **Don't** overlook his perineum and anus. This requires some explanation. If you think that a guy who likes his anus played with or even penetrated is gay or would like to be, you are dead wrong. A man's anus and surrounding areas are rich with nerve endings. Perhaps, it has been speculated, even more so than a woman's, and nobody faults her for enjoying anal sex – hell no. When you are licking his balls, if you go down a little further, licking his perineum which is, I'm testing you here, the 'taint' area between his balls and anus, you'll be rewarded with lots of moans, groans and heavy breathing. It just feels _amazing_. +Now, and here's the dicey part. If you insert a well-lubricated finger, preferably a pinkie, just a _little bit_ into his anus just as he's about to cum – watch out. He may cum like a fire hose from you massaging his prostate this way. Now this is not something I would surprise him with, in case he feels funny about it. But he _won't_ feel funny if you don't! Tell him you know it feels good and that's what you're trying to do. Let him know you feel comfortable about it, that there's nothing the two of you should deny yourselves sexually, and he should be just fine. Which, by the way, brings me to another point _for men only:_ Guys, _please_ , give the lady some courtesy – something to be attracted to. If you've had a long, hot day at work, or a great, sweaty workout at the gym, take a hot shower. Scrub the day's crud off your body before you ask her to swallow it, OK? Get clean, look good, smell good, and you're fighting a winning battle. If you want to do her a real favor, take a scissors and trim off some of the stray hairs around your cock and balls, _carefully_. I'm not saying shave the area, although it can be a hell of a lot of fun actually. +I'm just suggesting that you can save her a lot of time picking stray hairs out of her teeth or coughing them out of her throat if you remove some first. While you at it, if you'd care to be a gentleman, treat her nicely and with appreciation – well, that's another matter. Do it anyway though. + **Do** give him head in different positions, not just with him lying on his back. Give him head on your knees while he's standing, even if it's at the kitchen sink – but _not_ while he's carving the turkey. Sit him down in a chair and snuggle your face between his knees. Suck his cock in the shower. Blow him while he's working at his desk. Surprise him at work while he's giving a presentation to a large group at the Church and…strike that. My point is that variety here, as with most every other aspect of sex, is the thing that keeps if from becoming routine, so get creative. + **Don't** be afraid of cum. Sounds strange, I agree, on paper. But in real life, I've had girls nearly run out of the room, as though acid was spewing through my cock. This isn't 'Alien.' They ask themselves, should they watch it erupt like a geyser and keep pumping the guy's cock? Should they stop everything they're doing and watch the poor guy deflate like a balloon? Should they keep sucking and swallow all the creamy liquid? Will this get them pregnant? I'm not kidding, there have been some bizarre responses and actions regarding this, the most natural of culminations. +Look, if you've been doing this right, the guy's going to cum. And you know just about when, too, based on his breathing, his hips thrusting his cock into your face. Congratulations, you've done a nice thing! He's going to feel just great – you may get flowers. So don't blow it at the end. Can you imagine how you'd feel if the guy gave up licking your pussy just when you began to orgasm? You'd be within your rights to kick him in the nose! Therefore, here are your options: + **** +* **Don't** miss a beat, just keep sucking and swallow his ejaculate. Whether or not you like the taste, it won't harm you in any way. +* Again, keep doing what you're doing, take it in your mouth – no-one will blame you if it seeps out of the corners – and wipe in into a tissue. * Pull your mouth off – if you absolutely must – when he starts cumming and keep jerking him off until he asks you to stop. Disappointing, but better than you stopping just at the moment of truth. +Two things I'd like to mention here about adult movies again. If you like the idea of a guy coming all over your face – and hey, it's OK with me – then do it. It **doesn't** make the BJ feel any better though. Second, although it's fun to watch the sword swallowing antics of pornstar gals who can take an eight inch cock as thick as a can of tennis balls to the root, in real life most women can't even take six inches down. And the truth is, it feels as good or better to have your cock sucked and licked top to bottom, or have the head caressed, then to be swallowed like a salami. However, to each his own. +OK, you've built up to the BJ with loving attention, unless it's just a quick 'hummer' and that's OK, too. You've looked into his eyes, so he knows you're in the moment. You've slobbered all over his cock, getting it good and wet, maybe even rubbed it all over your face to show him it's one of your favorite body parts. You've shown loving attention to all areas, including the head, shaft, balls, etc. You talked to him, or at least hummed a happy tune to display your fondness for what you're doing. You've held his balls gently in his hand while you licked the sensitive underside of his cock head, making him squirm and moan. And you've kept up your end of the bargain until he rewarded you with showers of creamy goodness. Now what? +Now let's warm up the car for that ride to the jewelry store. You've just performed the most intimate of acts, and given your man great joy. You've turned up the heat and joined the ranks of those lovers who _know_ what they're doing, as opposed to the button down, straight lacesd masses who don't read this website and have no idea of what they're doing or how to please a man and probably never will. +You've done well. +Now, the last thing you have to do is send me feedback. If you liked the article, please tell me, I love to hear from you.

Learning any great skill takes lots of practice and patience. It really helps if you have a good teacher as well. +The first time I gave a blowjob was horrendous. I had no idea what I was doing and the poor guy was too young and naive to teach me how to do it right. I sucked his cock like a lollipop or a popsicle, increasing the suction like I was trying to siphon gas from a hose. He squirmed on the bed making odd noises until he grabbed my face pulling me up to kiss his mouth. Thinking back on it, I'm surprised I didn't suck his skin clean off! But, he didn't say a word in his defense and I felt like a failure in the end. +Next I had a boy fuck my mouth, his hand wound tightly into my long dark hair. He was all about power and control. He never said a word after he ordered me to open my mouth and pushed himself back as far as he could bringing tears to my eyes. I focused really hard on not throwing up and made little moaning noises to help him along. He just pushed harder against the back of my throat gagging me repeatedly until he pulled out and came on my face. I felt a little used and I didn't learn a thing. +The first time I swallowed cum was the first time I got it right. The young man was on my sofa, his pants down around his ankles. I had teased him ruthlessly, taking off my shirt and dancing in my black lace bra and tight black jeans. I watched as he stroked his cock while I whirled before him. His hand slid slowly up and down his shaft with a light hold. His eyes were slightly glazed, a pleased smirk on his face. +When he called me to him I knew what he wanted, they always wanted the same thing. I crouched between his legs and eyed his hungry face. I held his smooth shaft in my hand and moved it the way he had. His head lolled back, his eyes closed as a moan escaped his throat. His hand came to rest on the top of my head in a reassuring way. +I licked the underside of his cock in a long slow stroke from base to tip. I sat up on my knees to get a better angle and kissed the tip of his winking eye. My mouth hovered over his head for a second teasingly while he smiled in anticipation. +I let my lips slide slowly down his shaft until it hit the back of my throat. I liked the taste of his smooth skin on my tongue and licked the vein thick underside of him in little flicks as I slid back up toward his head. I moved my hand back up in unison with my lips. My hand matched the rhythm of my mouth letting him feel me all the way down to his balls. He never moved his open hand from the top of my head, never said a word, yet I felt power in every move I made. +It didn't take long for him to reach that tipping point. He tried to warn me grabbing my hair and moaning as he tried to pull me off him. But I didn't let him. He shot hard with a shout into my mouth and I held his cum on my tongue for a moment rolling it around until I swallowed in triumph. +I got better. I learned how to make it last with the next one. I could draw it out teasingly slow and then work him up again until he was shaking above me holding my face lightly in his hands as he watched me. I would start off slow, my tongue bathing him in gentle licks until I closed over him sliding down as far as I could go. He let me do the work and I worked him over good. I let him feel my teeth slide lightly along his thin, sensitive skin, loving to hear him suck in his breath between clenched teeth, his hips starting to rock with my rhythm. I felt like I owned this part of him. +The next one asked me to play with his balls. I learned to hold them lightly, to roll them in my palm, my fingers curling with just enough pressure. I would lick his sack feeling his balls jump then open wide to pull one carefully into my mouth, lathing it with my tongue until he moaned before I would go to his shaft. I licked the length of him slicking his skin with my saliva. By the time I reached the tip of his head a drop of pre-cum would be waiting for me. I spread the salty mix across my lips and slowly slid down his shaft taking the pre-cum with me. He was so smooth and hard, like a giant candy stick. His velvet skin sliding in and out of my swollen lips, my hand gripping him just the way he liked it. He would talk dirty above me his hands clutching fistfuls of hair trying to press me to him until I would bite down just enough to get him to ease off. +I would increase my rhythm moving my hand up and down twice as fast as my lips and then slow it down again to pull him back from the edge. He moaned over me, his hips rocking to my rhythm. Then I would start all over again working him up to wordless frenzy. He held my head tightly in his hands while I held him in my mouth. I could tell when he was so close that the slightest move on my part would be enough and then I took him there, one hand full of his balls, the other wrapped around the base of his shaft, his cock deep in my mouth. I took him to a place he could never have reached on his own. His voice catching between gasps for air as he filled my mouth full of promises. In this small thing, I was the master and I was pleased to serve him. +Every blowjob I give is an opportunity to learn and become a better lover. It makes me happy to know that I can provide that level of pleasure to a man.

An introductory discussion of bondage techniques. 2. Getting to the fun parts of what we can do with bondage.,"['Bdsm', 'Bonddage', 'D/S', 'Guide', 'How To']",4.24,"_First off, I wanted to say that I'm sorry to the kind readers who've been visiting me for the extended period of silence. Over the past few months I've tried getting back to it a few times, and had a few resulting false starts. It's difficult for me to pick up a thread like that, though, when I haven't been at it for a while, especially when I have a lot on my mental plate. My life is an unruly, chaotic, unpredictable thing that's been particularly twisty and turny of late. But, in a glass-half-full sort of way, hopefully quiet time will give me some fresh perspective change with which to attack this little topic of ours, again._ +Second, I'd like to thank everyone who's written for their mails and comments. It's been incredibly encouraging and gratifying to know that the things I say might be of some use to people like all of you. That really is why I do this, so please, don't be shy if anyone has questions, comments, or requests. At any rate, I aim on getting back to posting regularly, and I do thank everyone for their patience. +So, with no further delay, on with the deviance! +***** +During this unintentional quiet period from my blog I was soliciting ideas from my lovely editor, Miss Charlotte, for simple sorts of topics that I could crank out relatively quickly, ideally once a day. And one of her suggestions was talking about bondage. +The funny thing is that at first I was a bit surprised by the suggestion. It struck me as an almost too simple of a subject to speak upon individually. But as I set out compiling mental notes associated with it; safety considerations, tips, ideas, things like that, I realized I hadn't really reviewed my thoughts on it for quite some time, and that there was a lot more material there than I had considered. So, what I first thought might be too simple for an individual post turned out to be more like fodder for several lengthy ones. +So, let's begin as simply as my usually overly pedantic mind will allow. Bondage is simply the mechanical restriction of another person. By that, I mean one person has some capacity and inclination that another person restricts. +Note that in this instance, I don't use the terms 'dominant' and 'submissive' but 'persons'. As I've said elsewhere, while there's considerable overlap among many people's interest, it's not as ubiquitous as some might think. Many people who are into bondage and S&M don't necessarily go in for all the other aspects of D/s and power exchange, and it's generally not safe to assume otherwise without asking. +So, let's divide this idea of restricting a person's capacity, of curtailing their freedom, into two categories. The first, we'll call 'physical bondage', and it's exactly what most people think of when they hear the term. That is, they're physical devices that restrict a person. Handcuffs restrict a person's capacity to use their hands and arms, a gag restricts their capacity to speak, a blindfold restricts their capacity to see, and some of the more elaborate and devious bondage furniture restricts their capacity to do very much at all. +The second category is one of those phrases that is somewhat misleading, and so of course the common use of it has been misled. When most people hear the term 'consensual bondage', they assume it means physical bondage, above, but in an instance where the subject is simply willingly bound. While that is a common sense interpretation, it's not what the term was originally coined to mean. After all, by that definition, almost all healthy bondage would simply be consensual bondage, and therefore it wouldn't be much of a distinction, would it? +Rather, consensual is willful restriction as a matter of self discipline on the part of the subject. You might think of it as a negative form of obedience training. Instead of 'do this', it's 'don't do this'. This form, unlike physical bondage, is squarely within the domain of D/s and is actually probably the most commonly used tool in a dominant's bag. When you see a dominant say 'don't speak', 'don't raise your eyes', 'put your hands there and don't move them', or even simply, 'don't move', that is what is meant by consensual bondage. +Looked at another way, physical bondage has the effect of imposing a dominant's will on a submissive, or robbing the submissive of theirs. Conversely, consensual bondage demands the constant giving over of that power, willingly. +All these effects are considerations that go into the utilization of various modes of bondage; what they want to restrict on the part of the subject and whether that participation should be of a passive or more active nature. But, the fact is that the direct, obvious effects of these restrictions are all only part of the picture, and some would say only a small part, at that. +Until one experiments directly with bondage, it's difficult to truly imagine the potential magnitude of the emotional effects of bondage. +Consider the example of a simple touch. It can be as innocent or erotic as you care to imagine. Now imagine the same exact touch when a person is handcuffed. And then imagine that very same touch when you place a person's hands flat, palms down on a table, and say if they move them, you'll spank them with a strap. Bondage in the context of play is like the effect of nitrous-oxide injectors in a car. It makes all the same operations much more powerful, and of course much riskier. +Which brings us to that old adage, 'safety first'. Actually, we're doing safety second, but, y'know. +Disclaimer; Keep in mind, I'm explaining ways you can do this MORE safely, and pointing out things that definitely AREN'T safe, not definitively saying these things ARE risk free or advising you to try them. In my opinion and experience, bondage between consenting adults can be perfectly safe, but that opinion isn't that of a medical professional. So, consult a doctor and all that; I'm not liable. +So, I think the easiest way to do this is in a practical checklist of concerns that someone can mentally run through when considering playing with bondage. Think of it as a dominant's pre-flight checks. +1\. Circulation: This most often applies in physical bondage, but can also be a big concern in consensual varieties in instances where various postures and positions are maintained bodily for a period of time. In general, you want to ensure that blood is always flowing to and back from all extremities of the body freely. +When any sort of cuffs, ropes, or constrictive device are used, it's a good idea to use check coloration of effected extremities before they're applied. Try those little pressure tests on finger or toe tips, to see how the coloration responds. This provides a means of comparison so that later, you can check those extremities frequently as you go so you can keep track of how that coloration reaction might change. Needless to say obvious discoloration, such as parts turning blue or purple, are to be avoided unless you're an expert or retarded. +Keep in mind that the exertions or excitement experienced in a session will affect blood pressure and skin coloration, respiration, muscle engorgement, pupil dilation, etc. So, that can make it both more important to check that circulation is continuing properly, but also more challenging to tell with only a cursory glance. Whenever in question, loosen or remove these restraints. +Another thing to keep in mind is that the more broad and padded the contact area of a restraint such as a cuff is, the safer. Rolled up towels or sashes from terrycloth bathrobes actually make great improvised restraints, for that reason. The harder and more narrow it is, like police cuffs and zip ties, the more caution required. When using these, it's very important to minimize pressure to heavy blood flow areas. For example, if you're going to zip tie someone's hands together, do it so that the veiny insides of the wrists are against each other, rather than having the tie against them. Zip tying someone's wrist palm down to a chair's arm, so the tie runs along the outside of the wrist, is another example of a relatively safe configuration. If in doubt, some padding like a towel, napkin, even paper towel can disperse the pressure to dull the danger to circulation. +Many of the same concerns here apply to abrasion, below, as well. +Also, be careful of keeping a subject standing with knees locked or completely bent for long periods, and ask about feelings of numbness, pins and needles, light headedness, or any unusual sensations. Having a submissive pass out unexpectedly in a session is really not as fun as it might sound. +2\. Breathing: This is often included in with circulation, but for the sake of safety and thoroughness, I include this check individually. Needless to say, you always want your partner to be able to breathe. Constriction around the throat such as collars or the torso such as rubber clothing or corsets can all make breathing difficult. So can anything inserted into the mouth, such as gags or.. anatomy. The thing to keep in mind, as we said is that often excitement and effort can radically increase the need for oxygen, so what might be sufficient at the beginning of play may be insufficient when things get heavy. So make sure the subject can breathe and take a break if any sort of dizziness, light headedness, or disorientation occurs. Also not that asphyxiation play is a separate issue that we'll deal with (carefully) elsewhere. +And I don't need to warn anyone to never, ever apply bondage via the neck or throat, do I? Good, I didn't think so. +3\. Abrasion: Often bondage is applied in anticipation of actions the subject will be strongly inclined to do. Either due to willful resistance, reflex or instinctual movement, or the exertions of play, significant pressure can often be applied to the skin area effected by a restraint. Over the duration of a play session, this has potential to cause significant damage. +The precautions here are similar to some under circulation. Broader and softer or padded bonds are to be preferred over harder and narrower ones, especially in situations where one can anticipate a good deal of struggle on the bound person's part. This can be trickier than circulation, though, as often the bonds themselves obscure the affected area from easy view. Also, many more advanced practitioners prefer restraints that do cause a degree of discomfort when struggled against, such as metallic police cuffs, rope that can abrade skin, or zip ties. +This is the most common source of mishap in bondage play, but also, usually, the least seriously threatening. As long as you keep cutting risks away from major blood vessels, you'll be usually looking at bruising or friction burns if care isn't taken. But, more serious damage has occurred, and I've seen wrists virtually skinned by less sensible would be doms. +Also, keep in mind, your primary goal in this is to make sure the results of a play session are pleasant. Things that make it unpleasant will hamper the trust and intimacy building process that is our primary goal. So, you might think a bit of damage like this is nothing, but anything that makes the submissive less inclined to trust your judgment next time is detrimental. Especially if they have to explain questionable marks around their wrists to coworkers at the water cooler the next day. Even as a sadistic dominant, you want to be precise and selective about the damage you cause, never careless. +4\. Stability: Don't bind people in such a way that they're unable to prevent likely injury to themselves or exposed to serious danger or risk. This one is a bit of a catch all, and you might think is common sense. But, you'd be surprised how often we can simply fail to really think a plan through in the heat of the moment. All plans seem like a good idea before you start them, don't they? +This one is basically about ensuring that any risks that the bondage's hampering will cause are covered by you. If you are doing suspension play, make sure the fixtures in the ceiling are secure. Don't laugh, I've seen some really unfortunately timed structural failures along these lines. If you are putting a blindfold on someone, make sure you're there to lead them or assist them if they have to move around. If you are locking a pair of those suicidal high heels onto a girl like ballet boots and expecting her to perform any sort of action, make sure she has assistance balancing, and don't combine it with something like handcuffs that will further impair her balance, unless she's experienced. Broken ankles really aren't good for a play session. If you are handcuffing a girl and putting her down on the table, make sure it's balanced so she doesn't tip off. +Okay, that last one I've done. At the time, it wasn't nearly as funny as it sounds. I've even heard a story about some new heavy bondage furniture falling through a floor into an apartment below. With someone tied to it. The point is, remember that responsibility is always exchanged for power in a direct ratio. Every bit of power to keep someone safe that they surrender to you, you had better treat seriously, or they won't give it again. +This one gets screwed up most often, as it's sometimes hard to anticipate all the potential things that can go wrong. But while these are excusable and as we've said, most often fodder for a good chuckle down the road, not all are so lightly dismissed or forgivable. The number of plain old stupid things that people do involving bondage is shocking. I've heard of play around railroad tracks and shocking hazards, bondage around unprepared or unpredictable animals, bondage in hot-boxes like WWII POWs, bondage around deep water.. I could go on. +Look, bondage is fun and exciting. If it feels like you have to escalate it into some crazy, imminently physically dangerous game where your intervention will be constantly needed to prevent disaster, you need to seek thrills elsewhere. If it seems like a stupid idea, it is, no 'probably' about it. +5\. Structural: The process of physical bondage, where devices such as handcuffs are applied to restrict the subject's bodily motion, assumes the application of muscular force against that restraint. This in turn causes stress and strain on the body. In addition to the concerns mentioned under abraision, other injuries ranging from muscle pulls to dislocated joints can result. There are a few precautions to consider in preventing these. +First, be aware of the potential strain when applying bondage to reduce the likelihood. The safest configuration is when someone is immobilized, or bound to some rigid structure such as a cross or a chair. Here, the only likely result is muscular strain, and the required force to cause joint damage will be fairly violent. I hope it should go without saying that if someone is trying to escape bonds that frantically, remove those bonds at once. +Next come semi immobilized positions. This includes some suspension play, such as when one is bound by their wrists from overhead, or to a bed spread-eagle. In these instances, it's actually safest to have those limbs bound nearly but not quite fully extended. Placing too much strain, first, will likely cause abrasions as discussed above. Second, it will cause more stress on tendons and ligaments than a slight flex will, as well as lessen the danger of hyperextension of joints. Elbow cuffs and spreader bars and similar restraints which cause a certain degree of skeletal locking are also safest when applied with this degree of structural rigidity. +Additionally, in instances like suspension play, where weight is suspended on the limbs, if that limb is bent and loses strength, as occurs when passing out, muscular failure, or instances of surprise, the drop will cause a large strain, and injuries as severe as torn rotary cuffs can result. I have heard some people say that this is a reason to never bind someone with their hands over their head, and instead suggest wrists be bound together before them at eye level, or out to the sides of the head, individually. While I'm sure whoever came up with that is well intentioned, the ergonomic logic doesn't hold up, pun intended. It doesn't account for what will occur if, for example, their knees give way. The drop will actually be quite a long one, dropping the weight of the torso several feet until the slack is taken up at those wrists bound at eye level. Compare that to the force of a few inches of drop if the arms are already straight. I've heard of incidents of shoulders being dislocated after this fashion by people who thought they were doing things safely. Again, let me stress, if weight is to be suspended on limbs, those limbs should be kept extended mostly straight. +Something of the opposite is true for non-rigid bonds such as handcuffs. In instances like this, especially if the subject will be laid horizontally where the weight of the body might be applied against the bound limbs, you want to make sure these bonds have a good amount of flex, and the affected joints such as elbows and shoulders are never pushed to near to the periphery of their natural range of motion. If for example, hands are cuffed behind the back, never try to lift the arms out behind the person or too far to either side. +Structural stress on the body and the ergonomics of bondage are pretty complicated and honestly, this explanation is simplistic at best. A proper explanation is probably beyond my medical knowledge and technical writing ability. As I said, this is more to highlight what practices are safer than others, not to guarantee the safety of any of them. Until you have experience with bondage, the safest way to use it is simply to take it slow and easy. And if too much strain seems to be applied or it approaches discomfort, it's time to pause the session and let your partner out. +6\. Emotional: I know some people will read this and not take this one seriously. Those are precisely the people that you don't want to play with. This is the most pernicious of these risks, and one you really need to watch constantly. +The emotional risk is particularly and maybe surprisingly most acute in consensual bondage. Many submissives and masochists actually find physical bondage relaxing. I know, I certainly don't share that reaction. But consider, for someone who lives to feel they're serving well and pleasing, how much pressure to perform the lack of freedom takes off of you. How much can you really screw up when you're bound to a cross? Add to that the positive powerful associations and reinforcements of past endorphin filled sessions, and many ladies positively purr when being bound. +Consensual bondage does the opposite. All of a sudden, they are trying to perform something to please their dominant, often in a way that every bodily instinct is screaming to contradict. Recall my constant harping on the use of power exchange to build intimacy. Now recall my frequent warning; never give submissives more than they can handle. It might shock many to know how emotionally crushing this can be to a submissive in play; failing to do what a dominant asks of them. If I want to draw tears from a submissive, the most vicious means is merely to give a disappointed look. So, learning to challenge them without pushing them into danger zones is one of the many reasons I am telling people to go slow and accumulate experience before pushing too far. +Also, we said, the actual mechanical restraint is only part of the use of bondage. The bigger purpose is the emotional impact that it has on the participants. After all, if it didn't have some sort of powerful emotional charge attracting us to all this insanity, would we be sitting here discussing the practical points of tying people up? +That emotional charge is primarily one of vulnerability. When you are vulnerable in the care of another person who is responsible with that power over you, and the experience is positive, it leads to trust and intimacy. But if that person screws up and the experience is a negative one, trust is damage and we move further from intimacy instead of deeper into it. This is why this part of the check list is so vital.

The research will be a useful insight into what type of restraint and masturbation incurs the most intense orgasm. +I have tried the different clips available to my nipples. I find the clover clamps to my liking the most. The pressure applied is consistent and they do stay firmly attached if you are doing other things at the same time. I found the most enjoyable stimulation was to keep the chain taut in an upward position, for me to accomplish this myself. I went to the jewelry box, finding a necklace that was the right length and the chain thick enough to bear additional weight as I explored pain levels. I then added weigh to the center of the chain finding that also increased the pressure on my nipples as I moved. I began this at 5-minute intervals so I could explore this as a beginner who was curious. +I am curious the most of rope and being bound that I have spent more time looking at pictures. Yes, the Internet offers a wide variety of different rope, positions, and fantasies to be explored. I found the soft varieties in the rope, tends to come apart with repeated use. It also leaves less marking on your sensitive skin. I tried twine, which tightens really well but is itchy to my skin. I tried the plastic coated rope that loosens to easily, doesn’t maintain the restriction. Now as to the tension, I found my liking to be, bound very tight was more enjoyable. I found that my breasts became increasingly sensitive. I also found that flicking of flapper across while they are bound feels incredible but leaves bruises. That was apparent today, the bruises are quite evident but no discomfort from the experiment. +I explored elastics, interesting but difficult to remove alone. Another attempt was the soft hair elastics, applied only to the nipple after nipple suckers stimulated it to arousal. The reasoning there was the nipple was enlarged, and more sensitive. That was very enjoyable especially while masturbating. I found the tension to be pleasant and grew more stimulating with prolonging the time then removing the elastics just before you were to orgasm. The blood flowing back into the nipple area slightly uncomfortable with the orgasm increasing the pleasure. +I explored clothespins, now these are interesting. The wooden ones have the least tension, so a great beginning tool to explore. Placing on your stimulated nipple at first is painful, not unbearable but nonetheless something to adjust too. The plastic ones are for hard-core pain players, the tension is intense. There are some plastic clothespins that are with wider tips that aren’t to bad. Then there are also plastic clothespins that have teeth on the tips that take more to adjust too, but are enjoyable. I began with just the one on each nipple for 5 minutes. The blood rushing back to the flattened nipple was a burning sensation that was tolerable. I then took the next step to masturbate and then remove as orgasm occurs. I loved the pain/pleasure feeling, very much. +Then I went further with breast torture with 2 pins on nipples at once then adding more pins till the whole breast area was covered. Now for me that was quite a few, since I am endowed with 38c very full breast area to work with. The pinching sensation was distracting to me, found it harder to achieve orgasm. I had to go in short time frames with this breast torture, as my skin is very fair and bruises show quickly. I found the skin was noticeable for about an hour with red marks on. I found the sensation more if I was to put a lace bra back on my sensitive skin after clothespins. I also took my rope interest and combined the clothespins, I did enjoy the sensation. My breasts were so sensitive and aroused as the rope was tied, and then add the pins. The combination was intense and exciting as increased my pleasure with a vibrator as well. +Now you wonder as to the reasoning to explore bondage on oneself. I find to understand the power exchange between yourself and another you must know the levels of pain. I explored each in 5-minute intervals, then increasing so I would have knowledge of the pain. I wanted to know my own limits as well as a reasonable expectation of the pain so I could judge another’s reaction. It is very important to establish open communication and safe words. Respecting another’s limits is very important to safe sensual pleasure for both. +The more you practice, also will increase your pain levels and tolerance to the particular torture choice. +Role Play and Bondage are safe ways to increase your sexual pleasure so long as you remember to communicate. I found that I have learned my own body more intimately, and how to stimulate different areas to increase my pleasure. Fantasies, clothing stimuli what ever makes your sexual experience enjoyable, the key to successful experiments is communication. Talking with spouse or a good friend, so they know that you are seeking to be a better person or lover will help make your experiences enjoyable. The hardest is the discovery of alternative life style found out by another means then trust becomes an issue more than the actual items.

By Halo_n_horns_ + **Author's note** : This was originally posted in the ""How To"" forum of Literotica's site under the name I normally use for those threads. +* +I've seen a lot of threads regarding this subject. There's been a lot of prudery on the parts of some, some really good information and a few points that were questionable at best. +I personally have had the pleasure of having a great deal of experience with bottom play with the women I've been with. I've found a system that has yet to not be successful with a willing woman. I've shared what I've learned with a huge number of couples, and even a couple of doctors and have never heard of a single instance where the advice I gave failed. +My information and practices in this area come from two sources. The first is my own personal experiences, and I've had a lot of those experiences in teaching the women that I've been with, and the couples that I've known who were brave or secure enough to voice their interest in this play. +The second source for my practices is a book called ""The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Women"" by Tristan Taormino. I recommend it to everyone, male and female, gay and straight, who is interested in bottom play, or who would just like to have an accurately informed opinion on the subject, instead of practicing blind prudery or ill-informed advice from people who don't really know squat about this subject. +There's always some very standard advice for beginning to learn about bottom play: +Lots of lube! Though there are those who eventually learn to enjoy this play with very little or no lube at all, it's always best for beginners to use copious amounts of the stuff. +Go slow! You're going to be teaching your body to do something new. I strongly recommend that anyone wanting to be the receiver of bottom play begins by experimenting on one's self rather than letting the SO begin the experimenting. Sex is an area where you enjoy it the most when you know the most about your own body. Then communication becomes that much more easy with your lover because you know what your talking about first hand. +Start Small! There are many men and women out there who are capable of taking some pretty massive things into their derrieres. Starting small, like with a finger or a very small vibe or dildo, is where any beginner should start this little journey. +Practice good hygiene! Don't ever put anything into your vagina that's been in your bottom! Wash up with antibacterial soap afterward and preferably before hand. Thoroughly clean any toys that are used with antibacterial soap as well. +Now, outside the basics that I've just mentioned, and the book that I recommended earlier, there are a number of ""tricks"" that I've found make the learning of this kind of play so much easier and more pleasurable than just the basics allow. This is the advice that I've given that has never brought back any complaints or failures. +Though I'm speaking primarily to the women here, any men getting into this activity can easily utilize this advice as well. +Fair warning: Some may progress very quickly through these steps while others may have to try a number of times to become really proficient in letting this become pleasurable. +Ladies, when you and your lover are going to be getting into this type of play, it is paramount that your pleasure comes first and foremost!!! But, the best way for you to learn this is by yourself! +The very first step is that you have to decide that you really want to do this. The decision has to be yours with no outside pressure. +For you women who are capable of having a number of orgasms in a single day/night time period, I strongly recommend that you masturbate and come to orgasm at least once just prior to beginning to play with your back door. The hand-held shower nozzles are awesome for this since the hot water is also going to help that area of your body relax. The orgasm(s) you have just before your exploration begins will also help with the relaxation of those muscles. +For those of you who get too tender to have another orgasm shortly after just having one, go directly to the next step. +This is where some real fun begins. Get yourself really horny, randy, sexed up, hot n bothered, dripping with desire, wanton, but DON'T let yourself achieve orgasm! While you're in this pent up state your body should be much more open to other suggestive playing. Keep spending most of your efforts on however you're use to bringing on an orgasm without letting it happen, while also beginning to play with your bottom, specifically your anus and the skin around it. +You should find that as you have contractions from the pleasure your giving yourself otherwise, that your anus is also contracting, even if just a little bit. Let your LUBED fingers explore the surface of the area back there and feel the contractions with your fingertips. +Women with nails should use caution with this next step, or use examination gloves to help shield tender flesh from long nails or hang nails. You should also use examination gloves if you have any open sores of any kind on your fingers!!! +While you're exploring the surface of the area back there, see if you can begin inserting a lubed finger (or a lubed, skinny vibe or lubed, skinny dildo) during the contractions or during a moment of rest. If you're still doing this in the shower then obviously you want to be using toys that won't be affected by the water if toys are what you're using. Some lubes may also cease to be functional if too much water is introduced to them. +The initial penetration is very important because it'll almost automatically tell you if you can proceed easily or if more time is needed just explore topically. From what I've found, the hornier you are when you get the initial penetration, the easier it is, and the more enjoyable it becomes in a shorter period of time. Being really, really, REALLY horny seems to help dramatically from what I've been told of the advice I've given. +The next step can happen with a few different things transpiring, mostly in the number of fingers inserted, or the size of the toy being used. For those of you who are able to get a successful insertion, that at least is comfortable, and at best is causing you to go over the edge and achieve your orgasm, you should be finding out by being aware of the sensations just how much you're able to do back there that first time. I've known a few women who were almost instantly able to move on to more than one finger or a larger toy back there. There have been others who were only able to use as much as a pinky finger until they learned to control that part of themselves through becoming more aware of the different sensations down there. +Either way, when you have a successful penetration and insertion into your derriere, that's when you want to allow yourself to have that orgasm you were fighting so hard to keep down. This is going to help your body learn that this is for pleasure and begin remolding its instincts about that part of itself. Then, pull out or continue according to what your own instinct says you can do, and then do whatever feels natural after that. Usually relaxing is a pretty good idea. +This process can be repeated as many times as you wish or need to, to really get the full pleasure and effect of this kind of play. Allowing your SO to watch you do this to yourself should also help him or her to learn how to give it to you. +Again, from this advice I've known some women who have taken a number of times to get this to be a success, while there have been others who have had success right from the start. I even know of one woman who was taking anal fisting within a week of taking my advice, and she was a complete anal virgin prior to my advice. +Once you've done this successfully, you will start becoming much more conscious of your muscles that make up the anus and you should be able to start controlling them rather than just forcing them to cooperate. Again, this control is something that may happen the first time you do this, it may not happen until a later session of exploration. +I've kept to some very simple basics of how to do this. I'd love to hear the experiences of others from either trying this or learning another way. +I by no means consider myself to be any kind of an expert in this area. I'm only writing this from my own experiences and the experiences of others that I've told these things to. +Sorry this was so long. Information like this can't be given in just one or two sentences. +Continuation from later in the same thread... +The biggest key with this pleasure, for the one that's doing the receiving, is that your pleasure and comfort have to be first priority over everything else that comes before during and right after the act. I've stopped sex on the drop of a dime because the woman I was with felt a tinge of discomfort. Then I slowly moved on to pleasuring her another way without ""getting my cookies"" at all because of my concern for her comfort. +In time this can become just another part of sex play, like with my wife and I, we get into anal sex almost as easily now as changing from missionary to doggy-style. You'll also be able to experiment with the various positions just like with vaginal sex. We enjoy it immensely when my wife is on her back and I'm entering her derriere from an upright position. I love seeing her cunni while I'm doing this, and this position also allows her easy access to masturbate while I'm in her bum. While in this position she's also inserted on of those small remote control eggs into her vagina and used another vibe on her clit. When I thrust into her bottom the egg presses snug against her G-Spot. The combination of the three pleasure points being stimulated all at once has sent her into some room-shaking orgasms. +I can't stress enough how important it is for the one receiving to explore this pleasure with her or himself FIRST! And a number of times afterward just to make sure. You cannot guide someone else through the motions to please you this way if both of you are equally lacking in the knowledge of how your body will receive this pleasure." +85,Break a Drought,starrkers,How To,2007-05-19,2007-05-19,2022-01-04 08:26:33,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/break-a-drought,Surefire methods to guarantee rainfall.,[''],4.28,"_This is an entry in the 2007 How To Contest. Please take a moment to vote on this and the other entries_ +As I lay in my bath tonight, listening to the rain on the roof and bemoaning my bad luck, it occurred to me that luck, good or bad, had nothing to do with it. This was no less than a gift. +I am a drought breaker. More accurately, I, my family and friends are drought breakers. +In these times of widespread water shortage, I cannot in good conscience kept this revelation to myself. +I must pass on this gift. +However, before I do, I should add this one little disclaimer: I am used to working with the Australian rain gods. I know their foibles, their likes and dislikes. You may need to fine-tune this valuable information to suit your individual climactic deities. +There are some universally known methods of bringing minor downpours. +The best known of these is to wash your car, preferably inside and out and wax it as well. This must be done by hand; running the car through the automatic carwash will not work. Effort is required to get the desired result. +To add an almost ironclad guarantee to the upcoming precipitation, it would help if you need to travel over road works immediately after standing back to admire the gleaming clean machine before you. +Airing quilts, blankets and other heavy bedding is also a sure fire rain bringer but only if you hang said items out and then leave the house for the day. You will return home exactly ten minutes too late to bring them in before they are soaked. +These methods will sometimes bring a good fall. More usually, they will result in enough rain to wash the dust off the roof and give the grass the will to grow past mowing height rather than a good steady drought-breaking downpour. +For that kind of rain, you need to drag out the big guns. +To truly excite the rain gods, organise an outdoor celebration. One that cannot be cancelled at the last minute and rescheduled. +The absolute best of these is a wedding. +I have been involved in four outdoor weddings that were particularly memorable for their effect on the climate. +At my own, the rain -- a torrential tropical style cloudburst -- began five minutes before the park ceremony was to begin. The rain ceased an hour later, with minor flooding. I was married, not surrounded by flowers and smiling well-wishers in a park, but surrounded by poker machines and bedraggled, steaming grumpy folk in a club. +A friend chose a beautiful rotunda in a park overlooking the ocean. It wasn't so nice in a 30-knot gale with the rain driving in diagonally from the sea. +My niece nearly gnawed her (fake) fingernails off on her wedding day as the showers came and went and came back again. She did manage to be wed in a rose garden, with a sinking feeling as her high heels bogged in the mud. +Then there was the country couple who were married under the Sydney Harbour Bridge as the rain fell, the celebrant pausing as trains rattled overhead. The reception was held on a tall ship, cruising Sydney Harbour -- a truly beautiful setting. Except of course that is was pouring with rain and we all spend the entire cruise below deck, viewing the bar. +If the idea of nuptials makes you break out in hives, a family reunion may bring rain. But be warned, this type of event can also result in heat waves and dust storms (at least that's what's happened for me). +Not in the mood for a get together? All right. We come to the sure fire, never fail method of bringing rain to parched lands -- start a building or renovation project. +In my experience, nothing brings in the storm clouds faster than removing roofing materials. A simple three-day resheeting job took three weeks as the poor roofers tussled with the weather. +The same applies to wall cladding -- pull off any cladding and, as soon as the inner lining is revealed, before you can say, ""Where's the tarpaulin"", the drops will fall. +But nothing, absolutely nothing, guarantees steady rains as much as building from scratch. Dig a hole for foundations -- it will become a well overnight. Lay formwork for a concrete pour -- it will be a pond by the next day. +Suppose you manage to get the foundations down. Now you have to lay the flooring before the frame goes up. Go to it, put down that sheeting. Don't bother covering it: ""It'll be right. It hasn't rained in months"". I guarantee it will rain. Lots. For weeks. +Prepare your yard to take lawn. Dig it up, rake it out flat and level, and remove every imperfection. Go to bed tired, aching and happy in the knowledge that when the turf is laid tomorrow it will be best-looking lawn in the civilised world. +Wake up in the middle of the night. Yep, that's right. It's raining, hard. Hard enough to make little rivulets through your beautifully prepared bowling green. +What? I hear you scoff: ""It's not that easy. Our rain gods are not so easily fooled."" +Don't bet on it. +Get together with your friends and neighbours, synchronise with the bod down the street who needs a new roof, and plan ahead. Get all the work happening on the same weekend. +Make sure at least three people intone the mantra: ""We'll be fine, as long as it doesn't rain."" This must be said on separate occasions, by different people. And must be dismissed immediately as a frivolous thought. +What rain god could resist an open roof, a scraped bare yard, a fresh, wet concrete slab and a garden party all in one weekend? +Now stand back and have your umbrella ready. +Oh, and be sure your gutters are clear and your boat's shipshape, just in case." +86,Breaking Taboos Believably,Acktion,How To,2014-02-20,2014-02-20,2022-01-04 08:26:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/breaking-taboos-believably,How to write taboo fiction believably.,"['Fiction', 'How To', 'Taboo']",3.98,"I ran across a forum where the person was asking how to make crossing a sexual taboo believable. My assumption was that this was meant in terms of writing about it happening. +My forum posts are generally infamous for being a) poor attempts at humor and b) almost more long winded than my submitted stories. However this one began to even give me pause as the hours rolled past and I didn't run out of things to say on the subject. +And so, I pasted what started as a simple forum discussion response into a working document and began to get more serious. +To be honest, I have no good reason beyond the fact that it stirred my imagination and began to make me question my own perceptions of just what is taboo and, more germane, what makes crossing a taboo sexual rubicon believable. +The first question that came to me as I began to get more serious is just who the hell I thought I was to address the topic with anything remotely resembling authority. I have the overwhelming desire to stand and say, ""Hi. My name is Acktion and I am a sexual addict."" +That small attempt at humor probably offended some people. But, the fact is that it is true. I am a medically diagnosed sexual addict. I think that is why, in my misspent youth, I wasted a lot of time and money taking college courses and studying outside materials to become an addiction counselor and sex therapist which I then chickened out of. +Or, perhaps I just realized that putting me in a situation where I would be counseling someone else with a sexual addiction would be a lot like handing a three year old a flare gun. You aren't sure what will happen, but you can be sure it will make the papers. +But, I digress. +Despite going in a different direction professionally, I had a strong drive to learn and understand sexuality as fully as I could. By that, I do not just mean watching pornography and reading erotic fiction. Although I have certainly done more than my fair share of that. Usually with the hand that isn't on my mouse in my pants. +I also read research papers. The kind with abstracts at the beginning and statistics laced throughout. I knew I was different. Now, I needed to know how I was different. And if it was possible for me to be normal. +Normal, by the way, is a myth in my studied opinion. There is no normal. There's just that little voice that is telling you to clear your browser history before you log for the night. But, that may just be my addiction talking. +We're going to be at this a long time if you keep letting me get off topic that way. +As a result of my studies into the topic of sexuality, both prurient and non, I know a bit more than some on the topic and a bit less than others. I don't pretend to stand atop a mountain of research guided by my own hand or to have more than the two degrees I actually possess. +Instead, I merely challenge any who have made it this far to read on and decide for themselves if what I have to say makes sense, to research the scattering of topics I have hinted at rather than boldly citing just one or two, and at the end, to make up their own damned minds. +What is a taboo? +If you look through the categories on Literotica.com, you will find, about halfway down, one marked ""incest/taboo"". +Meaning absolutely zero disrespect to Laurel or Manu, I have often wondered about that seeming redundancy. Is there anyone who doesn't think incest is taboo whether it horrifies or tittilates them? +But, what about gay or lesbian sexual relationships? Don't those meet the definition of a taboo relationship? What about Anal sex in a heterosexual relationship? Are there not people out there who think such is wrong and possibly even sinful? +Just what does the word taboo mean anyway? +According to Wikipedia (since I'm too lazy to turn on the lights and look for my three dictionaries); +""A taboo is a vehement prohibition of an action based on the belief that such behavior is either too sacred or too accursed for ordinary individuals to undertake, under threat of supernatural punishment. Such prohibitions are present in virtually all societies. +""The word has been somewhat expanded in the social sciences strong prohibitions relating to any area of human activity or custom that is sacred or forbidden based on moral judgment and religious beliefs. +""'Breaking a taboo' is usually considered objectionable by society in general, not merely a subset of a culture."" +Hmm. Okay. I'm not smart enough to disprove that and smart enough to know it and not to try. +However, what precisely constitutes ""a society""? Just what is the cut off point that marks the number of people that can be a society? Is a belief any less strongly held because it is held by a family of four when just up the street a family of two is openly violating it? +Does the ostracism when one within the sociatal construct of four violates it hurt any less than if it had been a village of four hundred? +Is the naughty eroticism and guilty pleasure of courting disfavor by breaking it any less? +I'll let wiser and more interested heads than mine explore that to their heart's content. If it doesn't fall under the heading of sex, it doesn't touch upon my interest nor upon the titular topic of this paper. +I will only argue that for the purpose of this paper, something is sexually taboo to the individual if they are raised within a belief system, however large or small, that professes it to be. In short, if they believe it to be sexually taboo then it is for them. +And a taboo is by definition ""a vehement (or extremely strongly held) prohibition of an action"". +Anybody who thinks that racism is dead has their head buried in the sand. It may not be as prevalent as it was in the sixties or as open. But it's still around. Hell, less time ago than most would believe I watched a town be [B]forced[/B]to change a city ordinance and take down a plaque that read, ""Nigger don't let the sun go down on you in town."" +Ageism is alive and well too regardless of what we read in the Hollywood tabloids. So are anti-Semitism and other religious differences. As are the separation of classes. Hell, regardless of the popularity of ""Fifty Shades of Grey"", bondage and dominance are still anathema to John Q. Public and his upright community bearing. And many professed religious peoples still frown on anal as sodomy and a sin worth turning the ones who commit it into pillars of salt. +Hey, think about this one for a minute. The three most volatile subjects statistically are politics, religion, and sex. Yet, sex is the only one of the three that we hide not only from our neighbors but often from people living in the same house with us! +What's taboo now, eh? +Peer and family pressures are so abundant that I often wonder just how the hell anyone gets together at all to continue the species. +So what would make someone violate a long held taboo, beit personal, familial, or larger? More to the point for this particular work, what would make a reader have absolutely no choice but to believe that a character would break a taboo? +The answer is both simple and complex. Human sexuality is a direct result of three primary factors amidst secondary and tertiary causes. +The first and, arguably, most important is the biochemical balance (or imbalance) of the individual. I could cite chemical equations about dopamine and prolactin and other neurotransmitters, but the papers are out there for any who wants to Google ""neurotransmitters in sexual response"", so I will try not to bore any who don't care about the science of it. +The second is that it is an emotional response for the human animal as much, and in some cases more, than a physiological one. Very few people that have had a near death experience have not noted an overwhelming desire for sexual contact once the shaking stops. +We are not animals and are not driven purely by procreation, else we would not seek out sex during time periods when the eggs can not be fertilized. Again, there are papers about ""the emotive drive of human sexuality"" for those so inclined, so I will not belabor the point. +The third and final point I would posit as the last of the primary palate for sexual desire is a mental one. To be brief, curiosity. +Ask what someone was thinking when they broke a taboo and you may as well ask why it was that Columbus sailed the ocean. Or why Lewis and Clark walked across what we know as the American continent. Curiosity has often been cited as a driving force behind what, in some cases, made no sense otherwise. Hasn't almost everybody heard ""if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it"" at some point or another? +Other factors do have their part to play as well. Age for example. Generally, the older a person becomes, the more set they become in their ways unless there is some [B]radical[/B] life changing event to set their preconceived notions on end. The younger they are, the more likely they are to be experimental without some perception altering experience thundering down like Thor's hammer. +However, if you examine it closely, this is actually just a composite of the curiosity of the third and the physiological aspects of the first combined. While there may be a fourth primal cause that is not a combination of these factors, it is beyond what I have found in my studies. +So, what would make a scenario plausible in which someone ignored pressures to stay within determined sexual boundaries from virtually everyone around them? +First, they would have to have the biochemical drive. To wit, horny. Then they would have to have an emotional cue. Rebellion works. So does ""love"", whatever emotional response is intended by that four letter word. Finally, they would have to be curious. +The thing is, it does not happen immediately. +Even without the taboo factor, two (or more) people do not suddenly just start tearing at each other's clothes. There has to be a steady build up of pressure to make it seem possible and attainable. With the taboo factor in the mix for the three pressures to work against, this is even more important. +As a writer of erotica (and more usually pornography but occasionally romance), as a rule of thumb, I try not to allow the two (or more) people to have sex without a minimum of one Literotica screen (roughly 10 pages) of build up to that point if there is any hint of a taboo to the relationship. I don't always manage it, but I try. +Other more prolific and more popular authors don't wait as long and still others wait even longer. I have not the hubris to say that any is right and any wrong. I can only say that to me, as reader or writer, if the subject is at all taboo, there must be gradually increasing pressure to cross that boundary until it would hurt more not to for it to be believable. +I'll attempt to describe a specific example. +The idea of a wife (and mother) engaging in a sexual act with a man that is not her husband seems to be anathema to most people. More so than the husband cheating on his wife, or so it seems to me. I don't personally understand that, nor am I sure I agree with it. But, I've had pointed out to me too often that I am not normal to question witnessed loud complaints on the subject. +At the risk of angering anyone, I will attempt to show how this specific taboo act could possibly come to happen and not only be believable but almost accepted. +***************** +Imagine a woman who had been raised to devoutly believe in the sanctity of the marriage bed. She didn't just believe, she [B]knew[/B] beyond a shadow of a doubt that to have sex before marriage or to stray outside the marriage bed was to volunteer for an eternity in hell. She was married at eighteen and by twenty had her first child. +Now, at thirty-six, everything had changed. From having to submit to her husband's desires when they were younger, whether she had felt like it particularly or not, now she was deliberately courting them. +Yet, no matter what she tried, she could not interest him any more often than every Saturday night after the kids were in bed from exactly midnight to twelve oh eight. +In every other way that mattered, he was perfect. He was the head of household as she was raised to believe that he should be. He never raised his voice, much less his fist to her or the children. He was a good provider and protector. There was very little that they didn't agree on. And when it happened, she bowed to his will as she had been taught that a good wife should. There was no reason in God's eyes, or in her own less perfect ones, that she should even consider a divorce. +And yet... +So many, many nights she had lain awake next to him as he snored with an aching emptiness deep inside of her. One of the women at church had laughingly talked about easing that ache herself. Yet it sounded so filthy and wrong that surely God would not approve. So much so that she worried when she bathed that she not linger too long cleaning that part of herself. +Rising from their bed one night, she padded softly into the bathroom for a drink of water. Her eye caught on her reflection in the mirror. She noticed a new line next to her left eye and fixated on it. +As the water ran from the tap, her gaze wandered to the rest of her face and from there to her body. She didn't think of herself as proud or vain, yet she had felt a certain satisfaction that her husband had found her so appealing that had made submitting to his needs more bearable. But, whatever beauty she had possessed was even now fading behind skin that was not quite so soft and resilient and extra pounds from tasting the food to make sure he and their children would like it. +It should not bother her, this fading. Pride was one of the seven deadly sins. Perhaps it wouldn't if the man she had chosen to marry still found her so. It wasn't as if he, too, wasn't showing their age in his gut and his face and the streaks of grey in his hair. +""No."" She whispered. ""Forgive me, father. I should not be churlish of the many things you have granted me. Thank you for your many gifts."" +She should have stopped there. She usually stopped there. But, tonight she couldn't. Tonight it was too much. Tonight he had given her more than she could bear when for the third Saturday in a row, he had fallen asleep before midnight. +""But, Jesus, please help me."" She wept. ""Take this cup from me because it is too much for me to bear."" +Almost angrily, she scrubbed at the tears tracking down her face. But, she could not take it back. She would not. And she felt guilty for not being able to. +""Amen."" She mumbled almost apologetically as her hand reached for the switch to hide her aging face and body from her sight. +A light that she hadn't noticed coming in shone through the bathroom window. Curious, she padded deeper inside to see what light it was at this time of night. When she looked, she wished she had turned and gone back to bed. +The man of the young couple that had moved in next door was outside. In the bright exterior lighting, she could see him moving about. He held a bar with one hand as his body suspended from it and slowly pulled himself up. He wasn't wearing a shirt and sweat glistened beneath the light over tanned skin over muscles that rippled and corded with strain. He was beautiful. A work of art. +And she felt the raw aching need that she had been trying so very hard to ignore burst into flame within her. +With a gasp, she tore her eyes away from the window and went to seek her rightful place beside her husband. But, she could not close her eyes against the image in her mind as she lay there listening to her husband snore. +************************* +Ok, I'll stop there. That brief half hour of scribbling wasn't meant to entertain but to make a point and I think you get the general idea. This same general format would work for virtually any taboo subject, I think. +First, I clarified what made it taboo to the character whether it would be to the audience or not. Then, I turned up the heat by applying physical(horny), emotional(undesirable), and mental(curiosity) pressures. Scratch the extramarital affair and substituting the taboo of choice do the same thing. +Then it becomes a question of not if she will break, but when and what the straw will be that does it. Back off on the pressures and she may not at all or not for a long time. +Increase them though, and gradually add more and more and more pressue and eventually even the most harcore rabidly fanatical proponent of a taboo will be virtually begging the character to break it. +By the way, did you catch that? I said that there were only three primal factors. But, what else was there that I was promoting? +The fourth dimension of breaking a taboo believably is time. +In the poorly written example I gave, if she had walked out the door and drifted in a mental haze closer to the fence to watch him through a knothole, would it have been believable? +""Oh, yeah, baby! He was hot and she was horny!"" +Okay, maybe for you it would have. But what about for the ultra religious ultra conservative woman that I described? Not so much, right? +But, if it wasn't such a strongly held taboo by the main character, would the reader feel that it was nearly as erotic? (Assuming of course that I took the time to clean it up and work it through to it's climax and denoument.) +All too often I, and other writers I have read, tend to break that fourth barrier even when we pay homage to the first three. We tend to try to get past that other stuff and get to what people are really here for. +There are writers that can do this and do it well on these hallowed pages of Literotica.com. But, there are just as many if not more that can not. +All too often, this sacrifices believability on the alter of brevity and results in what I believe is referred to as a ""spank piece""? (Although, I prefer ""literary quickie"" myself.) +There is absolutely nothing wrong with this and I will admit that I have slipped the hand that is not holding my mouse in the waist band of my sweats on the first page fairly often. But, that shouldn't really surprise you if you knew about sex addiction. +In summation, I believe that a sexual act is taboo if either the reader or the character believe that it is. +I believe that any written work constitutes an agreement that the writer will not push beyond the suspension of disbelief the reader is willing to offer and so that taboo should be attempted to be broached as believably as possible. +I believe that it can be done believably by appealing to the physiological, psychological, and emotional motivations of the character in question and thus the reader. +And above all, I believe that time is a factor in believability. + _Thank you, Laurel and Manu for giving me this chance to explore my thoughts on the subject.

When a call comes in without a phone number attached, it assumes I want to screen the call. The caller gets a message alerting them to this function, and instructing them to follow a sequence of steps if they are to have any hope of reaching me. If they follow the instructions carefully and I want to talk to them, they can get through._ +Coincidentally, my wife, Veronica* has a similar feature, called ""Sex Intercept."" Whenever the conversation, well – my conversation, turns to sex, the subject matter gets screened in her brain before it has time to process any information. It then follows a path similar to the child's game, ""Mousetrap,"" where the marble goes from one crazy path to another, and the mouse in finally trapped. Except in this case, the talk of sex follows a bizarre path until it comes out of her mouth as ""It's going to be 60 degrees today, do you think the kids should wear long or short sleeves?"" +* I have changed my wife's name to Veronica for this article, to save my life, or at the very least one testicle. +Here's a perfect example: +ME (Speaking in appropriately hushed tones, lest anyone within 2 miles can hear) +Veronica, do you think we could get the kids to go to bed on the early side of midnight, so we can have some time to…and perhaps we can even trim your… +VERONICA (Gazing at me at though about to ask me to recite the Magna Carta) +I saw that Kohl's is having a sale on socks for the kids, and they only have 3,000 pairs. I think I'll run over there tomorrow. I have a coupon. +Has this ever happened to you? Has this ever _not_ happened to you? +This is what I call one of the Rules of Marriage. I can't really number them because there is no order of importance. They're all important and equally bewildering. What intrigues me is how many feedback letters I receive detailing the very same trials and tribulations that I go through. Even when we go out with another couple for dinner or other occasion, there is a similar convention. The guys talk with each other first about sports, business, etc. Then they move on to the important stuff. Sex. They don't get enough of it. What they get is not good enough. It's enough to drive them to a girlfriend. In the meantime, the ladies are busy discussing children's activities, hair coloring, how bitchy the neighbor is, school, the PTA, their figures and generally everything and anything that would motivate me to order another drink – or two. +Now of course I'm generalizing and do not mean to offend. I've received many emails from women who claim just the opposite is true. They are dying to discuss sex with their husbands, who are about as interested in it as they are in an IRS audit. But discuss sports with them and hey, now were talking. +Maybe, this is an idea, these wives should combine the conversation to attract and maintain their husband's attention. +WIFE (Light in her eyes) +Honey? +HUSBAND (More interested in his last fart) +Uh huh… +WIFE Do you think you might want to bring your ball over to my playground tonight? +HUSBAND (Faintly stirring) +My…what? +WIFE I said, do you think you could get your ball in my glove tonight? +HUSBAND My ball? Your glove? +WIFE Yes, dear. Do you think you might want to score a touchdown tonight. Hit a home run. Whack a slap shot. Win a set. Kick a goal into my net. Put your ball through my hoop. Am I coming in honey? Do I have to dress like an umpire and have John Madden announce the plays? +HUSBAND I understand what you mean. I'm not stupid you know. +WIFE (As if speaking to a four year old) +I know that, baby. I just want to be with you tonight. It's been…how long has it been? +HUSBAND How long has what been? +WIFE (Patience wearing thin) +How long has it been since we've been together, dear. I can't remember the last time… +HUSBAND (Still fully immersed in his fog) +Together…? +WIFE (In the ""I've had enough"" mode) +Oh, for Christ sakes, John. The Pope gets more sex than I do. When is the last time we fucked. And when I say that, I'd mean the last time we had sex when it took more than 60 seconds and both of us had orgasms. Maybe one of us even stayed awake for two minutes afterward without the TV going on? +HUSBAND +All right, all right. What are you getting so upset about? +This doesn't sound familiar, does it? +My friends, you have just encountered one of the Rules of Marriage. This is the **Alternate Universe Rule**. It means that when one of you is discussing sex, or wants to discuss sex, or even has the faintest notion of something sexual, the opposing spouse's thoughts are 1.2 million miles away. You might as well be discussing life on Mars – hence the name. +This is just one of the many rules of married sex that I've encountered in my brief (no jokes, please) lifetime. There are, of course, others. Or there'd be nothing to write about and we wouldn't be having all this fun, would we? I'd like to share some of my Rules of Marriage with you. I'd like to hear about yours. I'd like some answers. I'd like some guilt-free ice cream. I'd like, just once, for the store to have the advertised special _in stock_. Let's stick to one fantasy. Here are some of my rules, and the penalties for not following them. Please keep in mind that these are tongue-in-cheek rules. What I'm getting at without a lot of subtlety is that these _seem_ to be the rules of marriage. It seems that everyone I know that is married for any length of time faces them. +My goal is to give you a chuckle as you read about with what we've all gone through and are still experiencing. But more than that, I want to know why we have to follow these _rules_ at all. Maybe, and it's a big maybe, by identifying them and identifying _with_ them, we can all conclude they should be changed. For the _one_ married couple who reads this and says, ""yeah, that's us, we should change that…"" this article has been more than worth the effort. + **** + **The Proper Formation Rule** +This might as well be called the Routine Position Rule. You and your mate are having sex. You _must_ do so in one of a very few prepared, familiar and totally overused positions. You're on top, they're on top, you're leaning over to give head, they're leaning over to lick pussy. Missionary. Legs wrapped around, legs on shoulders, legs being spread and held by the ankles. Doggie. Spooning. Take your pick, you're never going to get all of them anyway. But never, _never,_ be so bold as to introduce a new formation. Forget about turning them over to lick from the base of their neck to the tips of their toes and every spot in between. Forget about sitting them in a chair to get a good position for oral sex. Don't even get me started about blindfolds and silk scarf hand tying. +If you try and introduce these new elements during the course of sex, you'll be met with resistance that makes Saddam Hussein look like Pee Wee Herman. You'll face more bewilderment than a nudist in Alaska. You'll hear more stammering than Pat Robertson at a gay rights parade. You'll…you get the picture. You spouse's inner referee will call a foul – improper formation, and you'll be penalized. Which means that they'll stop what you're doing – I call it a flow killer – and try and figure out what's going on. They won't know what to do, how to move, where to go. You've upset their routine. ""What is this?"" they ask themselves. ""I didn't read this in the program. This is nowhere in the instruction manual. I'm in uncharted waters here. Oh God, what do I do?"" All this because you've rolled them over on their side, mind you, not pulled out a leather riding crop. +Does this state of confusion mean you can only stick to the same routine every time? Imagine going out to dance and listening to the same song, dancing to the same steps over and over. Boring after a while, isn't it? +I think the antidote to this rule is one of two methods, depending on your spouse. The first one is to let them know in advance that you'd like to try something new. That way they can ask any questions, cope with any gut reaction fears they have before you have to stop in the middle. The second method is just to do it. Just make that different move, touch a new area, pull out that bottle of lube and the vibrator. Then, when their eyes open wide with fear and disbelief, look them straight in the eyes and utter in your most reassuring voice, ""Don't worry honey, I won't hurt you…you'll enjoy this."" + **** + **The Backfield in Motion Rule** +If I hear ""that's an exit, not an entrance"" when referring to anal sex one more time, I'm going to vomit. Please understand that some women _love_ the idea and act of anal, and most men that I know would love to get a shot at her tight little rosebud. And I'll tell you something else. Having a lady lick your ass or insert her finger just a little when you are about to cum is…let me wipe the sweat. Is it dirty? Is it wrong? Is it against every moral covenant and every religious belief? Good God, I hope so. What fun would it be otherwise. I'm not talking about doing it in church. Although… +And yet, those who are against it are _truly_ against it. You haven't been looked at like a grotesque alien until you've suggested anal to the wrong girl. And if that girl is your wife…you may be going to Mickey D's for dinner tonight, pal. Conversely, you tell a straight shooting, man among men type that you want to touch his ass and you might as well be asking him to save a table for you at a gay bar. You've just insulted his manhood, everything he holds dear. A guy who likes his ass licked or touched? He's thinking, ""She must think I'm gay. Maybe I _am_ gay!"" +Oh, please. There are far too many stunted individuals out there. It doesn't make her a blasphemous slut, or him gay if he's not. But, violate the Backfield in Motion rule and you may be considered a pervert for the rest of your life. Not that it's a bad thing in my book. +Talk them down from their ledge. That's my advice. Set the mood, choose the time, loosen up with a drink – anything that helps. But don't let this rule prevent you from making the other person feel good or trying something you've wanted for a long, long time. + **** + **The Moral of Oral** +This may be a shock to many of you. It knocked me off my feet. There are actually, I'm not kidding, men who don't want to get head, or go down on their wives. Who on earth would deny themselves the pleasure or getting their knob polished? Never mind that, can you imagine never tasting her sweet juices? Never feeling her shiver and hear her moan as your tongue delivers the final blow and orgasm rips through her? Is there anything on earth more erotic than to have your face between your loved one's legs? God knows, I'd do it at the grocery store if I could. Yet there are women whose husbands wouldn't think of it. Why, why, why? Is it religious? I'm telling you girls, marry a Jew, we were taught to please our women. Have you ever seen a rabbi without at least eight kids? +Seriously, wouldn't the world be a far better place if we were all thinking about giving and receiving head more often? I should run for office on that platform. _No_ women should be respected so much that a guy doesn't want to get head from her. I respect my wife plenty, get head all the time. +Get this straight. Respect. Blowjobs. Two different things. You'd be denying her a hot, erotic experience for…what? Still and all, there are those who just don't get into it. I don't get it. I love it more than…life itself. But, you can't force someone else to like it, or even to do it. If you try, you'll surely go to hell. See you there. + **** + **The Oliver Principle** +Yes, this principle derives its name from the beloved musical, Oliver. When the orphan Oliver has the audacity to ask for more food when he's hungry, he's brought out on the cobblestone streets and sold. For those of us with, shall we say higher than normal desires, we sometimes feel like Oliver. Yes, we want sex more than every week or two. What ingrates we are. How insatiable. Maybe we'll be brought out the street and sold. Maybe that wouldn't be so bad. +Is it my imagination? You fall in love with someone and you can't wait to rip each other's clothes off whenever it's possible, and sometimes when it's not. Then years go by, the pressures of career and a family, time constraints, health. And you get used to each other. The animal attraction gives way to a deeper love and affection and your needs and desires change and subside. It's only natural. +Pardon me, but the hell it is. You may be used to her. You may think you've done it all, it's all a routine. But I can guarantee you that somewhere inside her is a women who'd like to be bent over the sink and have the stuffing fucked out of her. And not just now and then. It goes both ways. He may have aged. He may have a gut and his hair may be a memory, but if you think for one moment that he wouldn't like to be force feeding his cock into willing lips, or slamming his pipe like a master plumber, you'd be dead wrong. Didn't anyone see the movie, ""Unfaithful?"" +It's actually frustrating. You make love, and instead of basking in the glow – if it was good, you say to yourself, ""I probably have to wait another week or two before we do this again…"" +I had a girlfriend in college that loved sex almost as much as I did. We'd do it at night and again the next morning. And even after that, I remember thinking, ""What stuff do I have to endure today until we can be back in this bed tonight doing it again?"" You think that's only for college kids? You haven't seen the feedback letters I have. Believe me, many long married adults feel the same way. It's their spouse that doesn't. +Don't live like that! Be like Oliver and ask for more. You shouldn't have to _beg_ for more because, believe me, it's out there for you. I am _not_ advocating infidelity _at all_. I'm recognizing the truth. If your spouse reads this and recognizes that her or she should please you or someone else might, I don't think that's all bad. I think that realization can _reduce_ infidelity. Remember, there's a cork for every bottle. Don't let someone else plug yours. + **** + **The Withholding Penalty** +If you think I'm not talking about taxes here, you're right. I'm talking about those angry folks who, in their frustration over not having enough sex, or enough good sex at least, have decided that the best course of action is to _punish_ their spouse by withholding sex. I've done it myself! +You're angry with your spouse over not having enough sex, and when they finally do want it, you're going to show them! You'll let them know how it feels not to have sex when you want it! They can wait two weeks, a month? Well, you can wait even longer! There – how does that feel? +In retrospect, this is not the wisest choice. The fact is, it makes things much worse, exacerbating your desperation. I have a better idea. +You want to make them pay? Let them know what they've been missing. If you're a girl, give them the blowjob of their life, but not enough to cum until them fuck you. Stick your pussy in their face and stay there until they _make_ you cum. Moan, groan and call their name like they're the emperor of the bedroom. Do things you've never done before. Make them realize what they've been missing. If you're a guy, make her cum again and again if you can. Take command. Lick her from top to bottom. Bend her over the couch and fuck the stuffing out of her. I'm being crude here, I know. Don't you just love it? Don't penalize them, make them beg for more, _then_ penalize them. You'll feel a lot less frustrated and a lot more gratified that way, believe me. + **** + **The 15-Minute Rule** +Remember making love for hours? Remember kissing until your lips were chapped, your heart beating wildly? If you're a guy, don't you remember having an erection for so long it permanently creased your pants? Where did all that go? +It seems as though there's an unwritten law that sex can only last for 15-20 minutes or so. Is that because it's the length of a typical half-time? Or the length of two commercial interruptions? I've seen my wife talking to a friend on the phone for an hour about stuff that can and does literally put me to sleep. I mean, I can tape record this conversation and play it on a subway, and no one will be awake at the next stop. Sleeping gas would not work this well. But sex? Hot, sweaty, steamy sex? 15-20 minutes. Tops. Including kissing, foreplay, oral, and intercourse – the entire meal from appetizers to desert. How can this be? I've had good bowel movements that lasted longer. +The only reason I can think for this dictum is that we're talking about two tired adults having obligatory sex at the end of a long day. I swear, my wife practically has to prop her eyes open with toothpicks sometimes in an effort to stay awake at 11:00pm for our 15 minute rendezvous. Under these circumstances, what do you think the odds are of handcuffs, pornos or massage oil? Zip. I swear, I'm sure that my wife is only doing it because she knows about _my_ one-week rule. If we don't have sex for more than a week straight, I start to get grumpy. I start acting out. In my mind, I'm not attractive any more, I'm not loved. Can you imagine how I feel after two weeks? I'm practically out on the street advertising for sex. It's true. I'm not a joy. My wife is no dummy, so she does her best to stay awake, especially when we approach that week deadline. +But why does it have to be this way? I will admit that on those rare occasions when both kids are out of the house at midday we usually take advantage of it. But I'm talking about real time, not measured in minutes. Time to have some fun, get kinky, and rough it up if we want – stay naked a while. +I am going to claim here and now that without those times you can not have a truly satisfactory sex life. Bold claim, I know. But what I'm talking about is a situation where you can be alone for a while. If you're just married, have no kids, or grown kids who are out of the house, you don't need to get away. But you still need to make time. +So to spell it out, if you are having those 15-minute sessions almost exclusively, make a plan to get away, or get time alone with no phones, TV or any other distractions. Or, surprise your lover with the time alone. Just do it. It will make a difference. + **** + **The ""Why Bother?"" Rule** +Why would a married woman, whose husband has fucked her so many times that he can find everything on her with his eyes closed – and usually does – want to do something to make herself more attractive to him? Why would she waste good money on some skimpy outfit? He's going to look at it, smile and take it right off anyway. If you're lucky. What a waste of money. Why would she want to try a new perfume? Why would she do something so radical as to buy a sex game online, or even shock him by shaving her pussy? He loves her just the way she is. +She's seen his gut 4,000 times, why should he get in shape for her now? Yeah, the flannel shirt has a few holes and stains, so what? And why _should_ he shave on the weekend, it's his time to relax, right? Appearance isn't everything for pity's sake. He doesn't have to try and look good anymore, he's _married_. +It just strikes me as remarkable that people can take no notice of their appearance, their clothes, their grooming, and then wonder why their spouse doesn't seem to notice them anymore. Knock, knock – am I getting through? +Please do not misunderstand me. I would take an average looking, sweet, fun loving gal who loves to laugh to bed over some stuck up supermodel any day. No contest. I'm not saying that looks are everything, because they sure are not to me and _my_ wife is _very_ good looking. You hear that, honey? +What I am saying it that I've read a lot of feedback letters from women who tell me they _have_ gained a lot of weight and mean to take it off soon and are waiting for…something to motivate them. They've had the same hairstyle since 1985. Their idea of dressing up is a cleaner pair of jeans or new sweat suit, and then wonder why their husbands don't seem interested in sex anymore. You realize, I'm sure, that the other women he sees every day are at their best. Made up, lips shining, dressed for work. Then the only way he may see you is dressed down, no makeup, folding laundry. I know a lot of women who look just fine with no makeup, but you get my point. Same for guys. You're walking around belching and farting, two days growth of beard and the same tighty-whitey underwear you wore in junior high school, only faded. How can she resist you? +You want to make a dent in that sex life? Looking your best from time to time reminds your spouse why he/she found you attractive in the first place. What's even better is when other people notice you. It's a big ego boost and gets your spouse thinking, ""hmmm, maybe they're right…"" +I'm suggesting you buck the ""Why Bother?"" rule. I'm telling him that if he shaves, combs his hair, puts on a dab of cologne and takes her out to dinner in his new shirt she _will_ notice. And if she wears her hair a different way, updates those old glasses, puts on some eye makeup and…I can go on and on…he'll definitely notice. The eye makeup is a biggie by the way. Most models' eyes are made up to the hilt, because eyes are one of the sexiest parts of a female. Lastly, don't get me wrong – looks are most certainly not everything. But I'm not talking about your looks, how attractive a person you are. To me, that's totally subjective. I think some swimsuit models look like concentration camp victims – way to thin for my taste. I'm talking about how you _feel_ about the way you look, and how your spouse feels about it. If you honestly feel good about yourself, that's all that counts. If not, getting to work on that will do a lot to raise your self-esteem, and that's sexy. + **** + **Arguing – What's the Real Motivation?** +Tonight's the night. You're sure of it. You've waited a week, two weeks, whatever it is. You're so horny you could fuck a stuffed animal. Yeah, you want it so much, it hurts. You've been acting nice, even loving, despite being frustrated by unrequited desire. And then, just as the day or evening begins to wind down and you can almost feel that tingle in your genitals, what happens? You have a stupid, silly argument and all your plans go awry. You didn't start it, and you did your best to avoid it. But there it is, and you know most people don't have sex when they're mad at each other. Talk about frustration! Is it a mere coincidence that on the night you were planning on having sex an argument popped up out of nowhere and nothing just to spoil your plans? +I can't answer that question with authority, but I often wonder. I know it must happen _sometimes_. I _can_ say with complete certainty that your spouse will look at you like you have two heads if you even suggest that they started a meaningless argument for the purpose of avoiding sex. Then again, who would admit to it? My wife will be denying me sex for even suggesting such a thing. See what I do for you? +Purely for scientific purposes, though, try this test. No matter what, no matter how they try to draw you in, get your blood up, cause a disruption, don't bite. Tell them, ""you may have a point, I'm going to think about that?"" Or, ""I understand what you're saying, and I can't argue the point."" In other words, you're not agreeing with something that you'll be sorry for later, you're just deferring the argument. If they keep pressing, keep trying to get your goat, do you have your answer? I think you do. + **** + **The Wave Length Principle** +Are you and your lover on the same wave length? If you feel that the time is near for explosive sex – hot, wet, fluid swapping, ass slapping, leather wearing, dirty talking – OK, sorry, _any_ sex – does your lover know it? Do the two of you have ESP? I actually believe that some couples do have this synergy. But for others, their methodology is to assume or even hope their spouse feels that same way at the same time. Is that working out for you? Let me put it another way, what do you think the odds are? +But again, it's an unwritten law of marriage that you can't actually whisper in her ear when she's near you, ""I'd love to slam you like a car wreck tonight…"" And she can't get close to you and breath, ""I'm going to suck your cock later like it's covered with honey and I'm a hungry bear…"" Why not? +Do you have any idea how much of a turn on it is to be at dinner with people and your lover whispers in your ear, ""I'm going to get you naked later and eat you like a Fig Newton?"" I do. It doesn't suck. Try it. At the very least, it's fun to watch them lose their concentration and forget what they were saying. + **** + **The ""Old Flame"" Syndrome** +The point I'm about to make may be the most important of the entire column. If you take one piece of advice from this article, other than to make sure you guys out there wash your cock between anal and vaginal sex – did I write that yet? – it is the one I'm about to make. It can change your perspective and your relationship, it's that powerful. +Everything seems better when it's from your youth, right? The food you ate, the car you drove, the places you went, the friends you had. It always seems like the good old days were so much better than perhaps they really were. The fact is that you're probably making more money, driving a nicer car and eating at better places than you ever did when you were a kid. The problem is, they all come with a price tag called responsibility, which is why it all seemed so much better back in the day. +Yes, time is like spackle for the memory. It smoothes over the rough spots and leaves only a clean and perfect surface. Nowhere is this more evident than with the old flame syndrome. +Has your spouse ever talked about their old girlfriend or boyfriend? What a great lover they were, what a great listener. How affectionate and attentive. Oh, all the wonderful things they did in bed. How can your sex life ever compare? One small point though…you guessed it, they married you. +What hasn't been brought up was the all-night fights, the jealousy, the unreliability, incompatibility, disloyalty, laziness and sloppiness. She cried when she didn't get her way. He had a fit when he wasn't in control. Her PMS turned her into a monster. His future included late night drinking with his old buddies. They cheated on you. +You forgot these things? Yes, it's incredible how time seems to obscure all the reasons you _didn't_ marry your old flame. +And here is this person that _did_ commit to you. _Did_ have faith in you. _Did_ remain loyal to you. Do you think you owe them a little something? I'm not trying to put you on a guilt trip around the world here. All I'm saying is that the past relationships you've had don't mean beans any more. They're in the past for a reason. Focus on what you've got in front of you. Stop wasting your time and energy and make the best of your relationship. You may be shocked what a _huge improvement_ this one point can make. + **** + **""My Spouse is Just Not Sexual""** +Oh boy, this one. The letter starts, ""I just loved your piece on oral sex. But my lover is just not a sexual person. What can I do to make them desire me and want sex more?"" These letters make me want to cry, because the answer is not a great one. +The true answer would be, ""Well, turn back the hands of time to about six months before you got married. You were engaged, you were in love, you were planning a life and future together. This was the time when, hopefully, you were as tuned in and turned on to that person as you ever would be. +How was the sex? If it was great, and over the years has lost is luster, I believe there is a hope and a way to regain much of it. If it never was all that good, the chances of a recovery are…not as good. You can't recover something you never had. You can not, in my estimation, transform an inherently non-sexual person, someone who is not nor has ever been highly motivated by sex and sexual gratification, into the dynamo you'd like them to be. +In the first case, where the sparks once flew and the flame burned hot, I feel you can rekindle it with things like time alone, getaway weekends, romantic dinners, erotic role-playing, films and literature, etc. You have to get back to the place you once were, if even from time to time. I totally believe that, in the absence of factors beyond my knowledge, such as loss of attraction, loss of interest, significant marital difficulties, health, family problems and the long list of life's grave difficulties, couples who have fallen out of the swing of things can regain their rhythm. +For the others I also believe there is indeed still a chance to awaken the slumbering inner desires that never fully developed. Long-term marriage can build wonderful bonds of love, trust and closeness. Even though they may not have extended themselves to the sexual arena, there is still room to grow. +This does not mean you can make wholesale changes in a person's behavior. I sincerely doubt you can talk a sexually conservative person into a threesome or foursome in your living room, complete with candles, soft music, massage oils, vibrators, blindfolds, uh…sorry. What I mean is that you can improve, and sometimes significantly, the lengths someone will go sexually. I say _can_ , I'm not guaranteeing it. That would foolish. I can not judge another person's desire. If it's not there, no efforts will reward you with good results. If the desire is there, but has yet to be released or perhaps fully explored, then it can improve. But how? +Again, there is no magic pill. Communication is the answer. Sometimes it's damn hard and _very_ uncomfortable. You want to be candid in a soft, non- blaming way. Believe me, the other way does _not_ work. I'm referring to accusing them of ruining your life, not being attracted to you, causing you nothing but pain, heartache and frustration, or even threatening them with leaving or finding someone else on the side. Having unburdened yourself with your feelings - and I'm not doubting for a minute that they may all be true heartfelt feelings coming out – may make you feel better in the short term. But they can also cause a lot of irreparable damage, anger, guilt and hurt feelings. What can you accomplish this way? Will berating them and hurting their feelings induce them to have better sex with you? I would have to say usually not. By spilling your guts you may be dooming your objective of better sex. +A better alternative is to tell them how you feel in softer, less accusatory tones and phrases. You love them, you want them, you want to make a new start of your intimate life together and get off on the right foot. _You_ have some suggestions. You're not putting them on the spot and asking them for a plan – _you_ have the plan. And this brings me to my final point. + **** + **Who's in Charge Here Anyway?** +Control. What a word, what a concept. When she's on all fours, your hands on her hips holding her tightly in place as you slam…wait a minute, what am I talking about here? Not that kind of control. I mean the kind of control where one person seems to make most or even all of the decisions in a relationship. Especially in defined categories. You would not expect most women to make a material list for a deck building project. Most guys are not found writing down the spices they need for a special chicken dish. I do know a few good recipes, though. I just mean that couples seem to have their individual territories. And this applies to sex, although there is no particular gender that's in charge. It varies from couple to couple and the most assertive men I know will often defer to their wife's routine or preferences. Or it may be the other way around. +However, when you are not the usual aggressor and want to make changes in the bedroom, this may threaten the ""balance of power,"" and cause some discomfort. Your spouse may feel they have done something wrong, that they are suddenly not competent, their lovemaking skills in question and their ego in danger. +Assure them that this is _not_ the case at all. Make sure they understand that you are trying to enhance and build on the good things you already do and feel together. Advise them gently that improvement and change are in both of your best interests, for they are the best way to insure that your love life doesn't become stale and routine as so many other's do. That you're both going to become _better_ lovers by experimenting and learning. Let the other couples travel the same path to eternal boredom – you're going to be trailblazers. You get the picture, right? + **** + **Conclusion** +Those of you who have read my other stories know I like to have fun, in and out of the bedroom. I want my readers to learn something, to active their own thought process and even smile while doing it. +However, I _never, ever_ , trivialize someone's pain or frustration. I know firsthand how sad it can make you, how hopeless it can seem when you're just not getting what you need. I find nothing funny about it at all. +As I said, conversation with your spouse on this subject can be very difficult. It's often not comfortable to discuss sex and related issues with your spouse _at all_. It's ironic how even in the best of relationships, where there is usually good communication, sex is the one subject that is so hard to discuss. And it's the topic on everyone's mind! I'm a victim of this situation as well as any of you. So what do I do? +I follow my own advice. I discuss it in the appropriate place at the ideal time. Not when my wife has just had a homework argument with the kids. Not when we're about to have sex, or are sort of coming down from just having it. Not in the middle of TV program. I set up the situation. I tell her that I'd like to discuss some things with her later. Looking in my eyes, she knows what I'm talking about. Look I am, and you are, trying to tell someone my feelings, and how I'd like to improve or make changes to our sexual repertoire that we'd both jenjoy. _Her_ appropriate response, in my opinion, is to listen and understand that I care enough to say, and not stray. +Nothing works all the time and on everyone. I'm quite sure many of you that know this all too well. I'm sorry about that – really. Perhaps you should show this article to your spouse and see what they think. It can actually be easier and less uncomfortable to learn from the written word then from your spouse. And for those of you who may benefit from just one point I've made, I could not be happier. As always, I'm very grateful for your votes and your emails. Best of luck to you." +88,Breaking Up (Online or Not),RisiaSkye,How To,2001-06-29,2001-06-29,2022-01-04 08:26:37,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/breaking-up-online-or-not,How to break up without looking like an asshole.,"['Advice', 'Breaking Up', 'Bulletin Boards', 'Divorce', 'Friend', 'Hurt Feelings', 'Make Decisions']",4.54,"How to Break-Up (Online or Otherwise) +In the last year, I have watched the fallout from a number of relationships and break-ups take over the bulletin boards. These problems have caused hurt feelings, have ended friendships, and have come to involve dozens of people (through bulletin boards, email, and other electronica) who have no personal stake in the outcome. The emotional devastation these poorly handled situations bring is totally unnecessary, and prompted the following. +The following is not scientific fact: it is based on my own observations, the experiences of my friends (male and female; straight, gay, and bi) and family, and a lot of tired, commercial popular psychology. That doesn't, however, mean that it's bad advice. +[sanctimony] +1\. Do it in person. If this is an online relationship, it may not be possible. That doesn't give you an excuse to send a Dear John/Jane e-mail. Get as close to in-person as you can, given the limitations of space and time. Call on the phone if you must, go over if you can. But NEVER break up with an answering machine, an e-mail account, or a public forum. You and your ex both deserve better: if this relationship ever meant anything to you, it needs closure. If it didn't, you have no right to take that out on them by treating them callously; it's not your ex's fault that you don't love them anymore. You are not ""off the hook,"" you still have to treat them like a real person, with actual feelings. +2\. Be honest, and do it before you're so upset that you can't be reasonable. If you're having problems, that doesn't necessarily mean that your partner knows about them or understands what they can do to help. Take the time to let them know what's bothering you. If your partner really cares about you, chances are some compromise can be reached, or they will at least try to address the behaviors that make you crazy. If it's unsalvagable, at least show them enough respect to end things finally, and with dignity. Don't say you want to be ""friends"" if what you really mean is ""drop dead, you jerk."" There's a big difference between letting someone down easy and leaving them hanging, emotionally manipulating them to serve your own ego needs. Be clear, concise, and as reasonable and respectful as possible. This isn't easy for anyone, and your ex deserves, at minimum, as much truth as you can give without being brutal and/or hurtful. +3\. Your (ex)partner is not a mind-reader, and neither are you. Don't think that they will automatically know what you want or need, or how you would like to handle the break-up. Do you need some time apart before you can face each other and perhaps build a new friendship? Tell them so, it will impact both of your social worlds, who you hang out with, etc. Do you think it's totally unfair and passive-aggressive that she wants to keep the book she gave you for Valentine's Day? Does he insist that you stop being friends with his buddy's girlfriend? They might be doing it for purely sentimental reasons, they might really be evil, but the point is _you don't know,_ so it's unfair to assume that your worst suspicions are accurate. If you cared about and trusted them enough to be in a relationship, give them the benefit of the doubt, even if they've betrayed your trust and you're bitter. This is not easy to do, but it WILL help in the long-run. You will solve nothing by assuming the worst and treating them badly based on those unproven beliefs. +4\. Keep private things private. Even if your ex has hurt you immeasurably, that doesn't give you a right to behave badly. If he said things to you in confidence while you were together, don't spread them around. If she was upset about your breakup and sent you an overwrought e-mail, don't forward it to everyone in your address book. _This goes double for sex._ I don't care if she liked to have sex in front of a full audience at the opera, or if he screamed ""Mommy"" when he came--it's fair to assume that only the people involved in the actual sex have any right to talk about it. This might be unnecessary if they're particularly open about their sexuality, but if you're going to be wrong, err on the side of caution and respect for privacy. If you had sex in front of a hundred tourists, that doesn't give you the right to send the video to his pastor. +It's a difficult and dangerous world, and anyone who trusts you enough to share themselves with you in the most intimate ways deserves for you to respect that trust. Often people violate this when they feel sexually betrayed, by a cheater or by being dropped for someone else. Being cheated on is emotionally devastating, but it's a different kind of betrayal than spreading someone's secrets to a wide audience, and this is not a fitting response: making public the private sexual events of your relationship can have serious consequences for you both, economic, financial, social, and even legal problems that neither of you deserves. Not to mention, spreading stories about your sexual escapades together makes you look like a braggart at best, and a lying hypocrite at worst. +5\. Don't hijack the kids. Any children that you share responsibility for (through birth, marriage, adoption, foster care, etc.) will be attached to you both. Just because you think he's a lying, cheating ass doesn't mean that your children are obligated to think the same, or that they don't still love him. Even if she's the no-good bitch who screwed your boss, she's their mother, and it's unfair to ask them to take your side. They love and need you both. Your break-up will be hard enough on them, don't compound their struggles by asking them to choose between you, or pass judgment on either parent. Because they treated _you_ badly doesn't mean that they're bad for the kids, one has very little to do with the other. If you're really not sure of their judgment or parenting abilities, be an active parent. By all means, make sure that your children spend their time with your ex in a safe, healthy, supportive and supervised environment. But don't interrogate your kids or accuse your ex of misconduct in an attempt to gain emotional leverage; you will only end up looking mean spirited and spiteful. As your children grow up, they'll make their own decisions and pass their own judgments. Be a role model, and provide them with the skills they'll need to make those judgments, but don't try to force them into taking your side in disputes with your ex. The emotional damage accumulates, and you can't take it back. +6\. Be fair to your friends. Your friends have a different experience than you do, they will have different responses to your break-up. The surest way to lose friends at the end of a relationship is to demand that they ""choose"" one of you, right now. Even if they think you've been wronged, _they haven't been,_ and it's perfectly reasonable for them to make decisions about their own social lives based on their own experiences. If the ex is really a jerk, be a good friend and warn them. But leave it at that. Your actual friends will consider the evidence. If you trust their judgment, trust that they'll hear you, and will ultimately adjust their perceptions accordingly. But don't put them in the middle, they're already feeling the strain. You didn't _always_ think that your ex was a jerk, did you? Your side of the story isn't the only one, and friends will have the chance to hear both sides, making their experience very difference from yours. In all likelihood, both you and your ex are right in some ways and wrong in others, but your emotional involvement keeps your from seeing it. You can ask your friends to love and support you, but you can't ask for them to _be_ you. Accept that their life is different. Finally, don't make things harder by asking your friends to endlessly analyze it for or with you. +7\. If it's over, let it end. Don't flaunt your new relationship in front of him at every party. Don't call her when you get drunk, to rehash all your problems with her or call her names. If it's really over, then let both of you move forward with your lives. If you have no interest in each other, then act like it. If you really hate them, you need to examine yourself: there's a fine line between love and hate, both are enormous investments. Do you really hate this person, or do you just have bad feelings? Can you ever be friends? If you can, then give it time, and don't say anything you'll regret later. If you really hate them, why would you keep interacting with them? You're free, stop holding yourself back by beating a dead horse. There are few things more pathetic than people who broke up years ago who still waste their time spewing bitterness about each other; think of all the time you're wasting that you could be spending reading Literotica stories instead! +8\. Take some time. Even if it's been ending for months, and you're desperate to get back out there and date (not to mention get laid), you probably won't be emotionally ready for a relationship for a while. In the meantime, be honest with anyone you go out with. Plenty of people will be willing to have sex with you for the physical pleasure, not looking for a lasting committment; don't lead them on if you aren't ready for more than that. Rebound relationships are a nice salve to the ego, but they're horribly unfair to that rebound man or woman. The rest of the world is not there to help you get over your ex, and you have no right to expect that they will. All you can hope for is honesty, and to meet someone who has similar needs and desires for now. The rest will develop if and when you're ready, and not a moment sooner, no matter how much you try to force the issue. +9\. Revenge makes everyone look bad. Sure, you _can_ bring pain into your ex's life. You might even be able to expose them for the asshole you know them to be. But doing it will put you in the awkward position, not them. They'll look victimized and gain sympathy, and you'll end up looking somewhere between mean and psychotic. If they cheated on you and you can't get over it, leave. Don't send the pictures you took of him in panties to his commanding officer, period. If he hit you, call the police and prosecute, don't run over his cat. +That doesn't mean that you have no right to assert yourself and declaim what they've done to you; just remember that revenge and justice are different things. Make sure that your actions are carefully considered, and not driven by hurt feelings and ego-deflation. Use your head, your best judgement, and the official mechanisms of justice when necessary. Why would you give anyone so much power over you that they dictate your feelings and actions even after they're gone? This is a sure-fire loser plan. And you aren't a loser, I can tell. +[/sanctimony]" +89,Breast Obsessed: Positive Aspects,curl4ever,How To,2008-05-02,2008-05-02,2022-01-04 08:26:38,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/breast-obsessed-positive-aspects,"Buying produce, motivating laundry, & other how-to's.","['Breasts', 'Corn', 'Driving', 'Fitness', 'Gym', 'Laundry', 'Natural', 'Obsessed', 'Obsession', 'Produce']",3.89,"The male half of mankind has a well-deserved, bad reputation for being obsessed with breasts. This obsession has a long list of negative consequences, such as blatant ogling in public, complete loss of memory and intelligence in the presence of cleavage, and causing an untold number of unnecessary plastic surgeries. This how-to article contains suggestions about how men can use their natural obsession with breasts to take advantage of some positive applications. +I need to apologize for two things up front: 1) I am writing from a male perspective and 2) I love breasts. (Hm. I guess that since those two are virtually equivalent, perhaps that only counts as one apology.) I also should mention that I had severe misgivings about submitting this story under my usual author name, so I almost invented an alias for the occasion. The rest of my stories are very relationship-oriented, with male characters who do not act like cads and beasts; that's the real me most of the time. Obviously, the thoughts described in this how-to guide have crossed my mind, but I have taken some literary license to emphasize a portrayal of single-minded obsession. After reading this, please don't discount the caring and sensitivity of my other stories. I only think like this on rare occasions... maybe once a month. On second thought, perhaps a couple of times a week. On third thought, maybe several times a day. Actually, I'll just stop before get into any further trouble! +BUYING PRODUCE: Let's face it; for most guys, the grocery store produce aisle is not our natural habitat. I have discovered a technique for choosing produce, however, that is fun and effective: I have found that the best corn- on-the-cob tends to have high-moisture kernels, making them heavy for their size. (I cordially invite any professional food technologists in the audience to contribute an official explanation.) Now as a technical type of person, I could try to intellectually figure out which ears have the greatest density. Instead, I realized that while holding an ear of corn in each hand, it is much more enjoyable to imagine cupping my hands under breasts. I feel their delicious heft and can instinctively recognize which feel like the ripe, full breasts I'd like to take home with me. Just like with breasts, you shouldn't look for the biggest or the heaviest, just the ones that feel right. My evaluation is that this picks the best produce ninety-nine percent of the time for corn-on-the-cob and ninety percent of the time for oranges. You can try this on melons or other produce at your own risk. The danger is that some female shopper will recognize the far-away look in your eyes and have you tossed out of the store for being a pervert. +MOTIVATING LAUNDRY: If my wife is running late in the morning, she occasionally asks me to iron her clothes for her. This is just the sort of favor that tends to get repaid with good sex at night. As I'm ironing her blouse or sweater, I always pay special attention to making sure they look good around the bustline, which can be a complicated geometrical challenge on a flat ironing board. The payoff is that if she looks in the mirror and decides her breasts look good, she feels good during the day and sexy when we get home. Furthermore, I'm happy to give her an edge over her male co-workers -- a good-looking set of breasts is a deadly weapon for distracting her competitors and encouraging cooperation from her supporters. +PERSONAL FITNESS: When I happen to be transported by the sight of a beautiful woman walking down the street, my first thought (well, maybe my third or fourth thought) is that I damn well am going to continue working out and getting in shape, so that I might similarly look as hot and interesting to the women of the world. Once in the gym, of course, the situation just gets better, with many female patrons wearing form-fitting workout clothes. Furthermore, the marvelous aerobic exercise inventions called treadmills, steppers, and elliptical machines have an excellent secondary effect of keeping the bouncing boobs in the same location, making it easy to keep an eye on them with brief glances or distant ""I'm absorbed in my workout"" gazes without the tell-tale head-swivelling of girl-watching in the more dangerous outdoor habitat. Also, like a good jolt of caffeine or adrenaline, in the gym, the sight of a sexy, athletic female is a sure-fire performance enhancer. +DRIVING SAFELY: For some reason I can't quite identify, the public revelation that I find to be the most embarrassing of all is that I am on particularly good safety behavior when my eye is caught by the shapely breasts of a pedestrian. This may seem counter-intuitive, since many men would become much less cautious about watching traffic and other hazards to fix their eyes on the objects of their desire. The thought that goes through my head, however, is ""It would be a particularly terrible shame if that delicious set of breasts were damaged in an accident."" +IN SUMMARY: With a little bit of effort, the entire innate male cluster of breast-obsessed thinking patterns can be exploited to have some (albeit very trivial) positive effects. +REMINDER: I don't really think this way all the time, and my other stories are much more balanced and thoughtful. (I was going to say ""well-rounded"" but that would have gotten me started again...)

Just because a lot of so called ""Sex in the City"" liberated American girls have ""slept"" with an average of ten men (college lesbian experiences do not count) before getting married, or are having their asses thonged by Victoria's Secret or Calvin Klein doesn't mean that American women know a rat's ass about lingerie! Furthermore, I recently heard some drunken idiot at a predictable Italian Irish wedding in New Jersey yell, ""Throw us your garter belt!"" during the over-rated garter tossing ceremony. No, I am not over reacting here - this misnomer is more common than you might think. The Internet is full of such inaccuracies, and it's not uncommon to find a myriad of wedding related web sites referring to the single garter worn on the leg as a ""garter belt"". +Lets get some things straight girls - brides don't throw ""garter belts"" - that in itself would be pretty bizarre visually, and I pray that she would have enough sense not to do that - because if she did, she would have to take off her entire wedding gown, get naked in front of everyone, and then throw it. It just doesn't make any sense. Besides, a naked bride is fine I guess, but one that is nude but retains her garter belt (with stockings, heels, and sans panties) is simply sublime in my book. What the bride throws is simply the garter that she wears under her dress on and her leg. A garter belt (or suspender belt for the Brits) on the other hand is a piece of elastic something - like a giant rubber band in lace and satin that helps keep stockings up, or is worn by a woman (or Mick Jagger, David Bowie, Rocky Horror Show aficionados) during sex as an accessory. +White - the color white - wearing things that are white, is a prerequisite in my opinion for things relating to weddings. No other color is acceptable. I don't care what era you are living in, or how many so-called ""strides"" the feminists have won - white is for weddings, period. Whether you have been a slut all your life, been divorced three times, or you are to have your hymen deflowered because you are an awkward virgin who is going to bleed on her wedding night - white should always be the color of choice for brides. +This travesty I have seen in America, especially amongst American movie starlets who wear black or red wedding gowns, but still have the audacity to wear white lingerie underneath. I can't phantom that. Weddings, as an institution have recently become a commercial enterprise, and a lot of the romanticism that used to be common has given way to plain gaudy design and materialism. +Although our culture has come to think that white somehow symbolizes the virginity and purity of the bride - this is wrong. Actually, it's a custom that started during the Victorian era. The pretentious unrealistic white dress became popular among the Victorian upper classes because one had to be wealthy to afford such a luxurious creation that it would only be worn one time. Moreover, white is traditionally the color associated with joy, and in my opinion the wedding ceremony, as well as the sexual act that follows should be of a joyous and celebratory nature. Oh, and I almost forgot, legend says that NOTHING black should be worn by the bride, else she risks becoming a widow real fast! This piece of advice also goes for wearing black lingerie under the wedding gown. A no no if there ever was one, especially with panties or thongs. Black, rather then white, makes a gal usually perspire more. The last thing a bride wants on her wedding night is a yeast infection, or to smell bad ""down there"" if the sex is to be spontaneous - like lifting up the dress and consummating in a flash. Wearing black lingerie during honeymoon sex, and for the rest of your sexual married life, is perfectly OK though and I actually encourage it when one wants to create a certain mood. +Married in white, You have chosen all right. +Disclaimer: +This progressive report is meant to be read by, brides to be, their grooms, or anyone interested in wedding lore, lingerie, or erotica dealing with weddings.

Is it cynical to say this? Well, yes it is - but being that a grand percentage of marriages tend to end at a rapidly alarming pace we need to be realistic. Although I will never wish any couple to go through divorce. +This manuscript will strive to give couples and future brides an invitation to make their weddings and honeymoons into an erotic masterpiece that they will never forget while incorporating lingerie into the nuptial sexual act. Many of the brides or couples that I counsel (for free!) come back and thank me, usually telling me that they have had incredible sex because of chemistry, love, lust, and all that jazz, but also because of lingerie! +This information although as old as brides have been wearing white for weddings is not going to be found in an Emily Post etiquette book, Redbook, or Brides magazine. Instead it's common wedding night etiquette amongst brides that have a unique fashion and sexual savvy, or it has been passed down from enlightened mothers to daughters throughout the generations. I was fortunate to have a mother that was sexually advanced for her age. She taught my sisters and I that the most important thing was LOVE! A marriage without love is basically void, and it doesn't matter if both partners have slamming bodies, hot sex in bed, or lots of cash. Love as an essence and spiritual component is necessary for any marriage to survive. +I remember my wedding day fondly. +Also wedding night love making should be consummated while the groom is totally nude, and the bride is dressed in a wedding gown that is lifted to expose her genitalia, or she should be redressed and made up in the appropriate white lingerie. +On my wedding day I wore a beautiful white lace custom made corset with six garter straps on each side, and cups that while capable of being called ""push up"", also were designed to be let down so the breasts could hang. The designer of the corset was a gifted Argentine seamstress who learned her trade in Italy, and eventually became an instructor at New York City's famed Parson's School of Design. The corset she made for me was flawless, and since we worked closely together to come up with a final product, she made sure that it fit me very comfortably. She was open minded too, and she knew that the corset apart from being used as a foundation for the wedding gown, would be also used either during the wedding night consummation, or during the sexual marathons of the honeymoon. Suffice to say, although the corset hugged and squeezed my body with all the boning and structural elements, Manuela, made it so I could move around in it. I looked absolutely ravishing in it, and I wish I 'd snapped a picture of it when I was dressing at home. The scene in itself was erotic as my two half dressed sisters (one was six months pregnant and glowing), one totally nude bride's maid, a eighteen year old aspiring model cousin just in her panties, and my beaming mom, wearing a black bustier, also in a state of undress because she was pantyless, had not put on her stockings yet, and only managed to wear her heels as they all congregated around me - fussing to get the dammed but beautiful lingerie on me. Getting the wedding dress on was easier, but it wasn't as much fun as fitting into the corset. It was a sensuous experience that bordered on the incestuous - well, almost. Actually it was kind of spiritual also, because it opened up to an all female bonding that has since left our prudish society a long time ago. When was the last time a bunch of women gathered around in nakedness and semi dress and prepared a loved one for a ceremony of love, followed by a celebration of more affection with family, and lastly sealed with a sexual act both lustful and amorous? +I felt like an erotic princess at that moment, and if by some freak of nature they all decided to orally go down on me, I would've gladly let them. I know, that statement is way over the top, but.that was the degree of my sexual arousal at the moment! +If the bride so chooses to leave her wedding gown on, she should consummate the marriage either in a missionary position with gown lifted exposing her pubis, and stockinged gartered legs spread apart as far as possible - as not to interfere with the movements of the groom. It is also helpful and traditional that she wear her white opera pumps during consummation. This important factor gives the moment an aura of added romanticism or fetishism, (if you and your groom are so inclined in that direction) and it also helps the groom retain his balance by holding the heels so he can thrust harder and deeper while he is in the missionary. A groom can also use the stockings, garter, or brides suspenders to hold on to while he thrusts into his beautiful bride. +The other and more common position for consummation while the bride retains her gown is the traditional rear entry, or in vulgar terms, ""doggy style"" position. This is as old and classy as it gets, and numerous brides in Europe and America have been made love to while they took up this position. My mother always joked with my sisters and I that this is how I was conceived being the oldest child. Knowing the unique sexual dynamo that my mother was, and still is at sixty years ""young"", it's no surprise that when daddy and her married, and honeymooned in Bermuda, that it was in this sexual fashion that I was bought into the world. Being very open minded and creative myself, I have for many years visualized my ""conception"" vividly. Someday soon, during a mother and daughter quality time, I will gather enough courage to ask my mother how it actually happened, and knowing how she is, she would most probably volunteer to tell my sisters and I in the most vivid and graphic of details all with a chuckle, reflective glance to the air, and a phrase like, ""that Cossack father of yours, boyo did he ever give me..."" +For the time being, I remain with visions of a very beautiful twenty-year-old New York society girl, with short blond hair, pudgy nose, hunched over a balcony at the honeymoon suit of the Princess Hotel, Hamilton Bermuda. There overlooking the Atlantic Ocean at night, balmy breeze blowing, light house bell ringing, I see my mom Sally with her gown lifted up, long taut legs refined from field hockey at Vassar, now sheathed in French silk stockings, moaning like there was no tomorrow, being penetrated by my future dad as he drank directly from a bottle of the most expensive French champagne, passing it to my mom hunched over in ecstasy, a handsome dark White Russian émigré she had met two years previous in a trip to Spain she had hoped would've been like Hemingway said it would. I don't know if she ever found Spain to be like ""Pappa Ernest"" said it would, but I can assure you that on that warm Bermuda night, my own poppa's Russian sperm commingled with whatever New England stuff Sally's expensive breeding had to offer thus creating me! Although it wasn't a violent act it was arduous lovemaking nonetheless, and I bet you the whole hotel were probably wondering where those moans where coming from. Was some one being murdered? Far from it, I was being created! +Not only does rear entry affords a deeper penetration, it's specially suited for those couples that are in a sexual hurry and unfortunately can't wait for the wedding night to consummate their vows. If the couple is in an anxiously excited state and can't wait, rear entry provides a fast and convenient position that can be done during the wedding reception in the 'bridal party"" room, broom closet at the catering hall, or after the wedding, in the Rolls (if privacy and finances permits) before taking pictures. Suffice to say, rear entry intercourse is perfectly suited for what in America they call a ""quickie"", or in the UK, a ""shag"". This happened to my cousin Violet right in the brides room at the Mohank Mansion as the guests partied a dozen feet away. +Wedding gown rear entry can be done in the following manner as it was done to my mom when I was conceived in Bermuda: +The nude groom takes his bride and he faces her back bringing her as close as possible, but letting him still have enough room to lift her gown. Naturally the bride is still wearing her wedding gown and it's optional whether she wants to leave on her veil. For added drama, I strongly recommend a girl wear the veil . This and other aspects of wedding night amour I tell certain girls that come into my boutique that I perceive to be of a highly sexual nature. Actually, I really don't volunteer anything, and instead they actually approach me sometimes after a number of fittings, or when they feel thoroughly at ease with me because we have built up a successful business as well as I sometimes become their sexual confidants as well as occasional casual lover. You'd be surprised how rampant is bi sexuality amongst rich white girls from New York City. +To all the girls that come into my boutique I always tell them to leave the veil on during sex. In addition, it's necessary to wear pumps if the bride is not tall. Not only do the pumps make the bride appear lovely, it also brings her vagina up at a closer level to the erect penis of the groom, thus ensuring a trouble free penetration. Even if the girl is a tall Amazon, I still recommend that she keep on her high heels during the wedding night lovemaking. Another important factor that can't be overlooked is that the groom must be very erect in his penis to carry this position out. A flaccid and weak penis not only can delay satisfaction of booth honeymooners, but it can also cause a state of angst and frustration because the groom is not hard enough to enter his bride. A groom wants his phallus to be hard enough to enter 1,2,3, and sure you can stimulate and tease the bride by rubbing your penis along her vagina and clitoris, but it must be sufficiently hard to avoid loosing time by playing with it to get it erect. As a woman I can tell you that the biggest sin a groom can commit on the wedding night is not the one about suffering from premature ejaculation, but making his bride wait while he gets hard. Don't drink too much grooms, it will affect your ability to get it up and shoot your ejaculate into your ecstatic and eager bride. +I recommend that the penis be very hard, sufficiently lubricated with saliva or a better quality lubricant other then the usual Vaseline or sticky K-Y Jelly. Astro Glide or the newer products by the K-Y Jelly makers are better, and if you must wear a condom, (traditionally you shouldn't) please I beg you, don't use Vaseline or oil based product that can tear the prophylactic. Use a water-based lubricant instead. +Unlike the majority of lingerie suppliers on the net, I also recommend vintage stockings, girdles and corsets, carefully preserved glimpses into an era of feminine glamour that is not around too much anymore. They are not modern these stockings, and they are made using old machinery - they are true collectors items to be cherished (and maybe worn for that 'special occasion'!). +It is imperative that the bride should be wearing stockings. Always stockings - that can be synthetic or silk - although silk stockings are preferred, they can be expensive and hard to find. As an aside, silk stockings are a delight to wear, but during wedding night sex they can get ripped and that is the last thing you want with a pair of hose you just spent fifty dollars on. There are no ifs ands or buts about this. If a bride doesn't wear stockings and instead wears panty hose then she is doing herself and her groom a disservice. Of course this is my opinion, but I know that many a couple that has come into my store thinks the same way I do about a bride wearing stockings. I guess it is acceptable if a bride wants to wear thigh highs that stay up without the use of garters or suspenders, they are still sexually arousing, but if a girl wants to be traditional she should be gartered with suspenders that are connected to a garter belt, basque, merry widow, bustier, or corset. This new trend that I have seen of girls wearing cheap panty hose under lovely two thousand dollar wedding gowns is just insane. Only in America, I guess. Besides, a good pair of stockings makes all types of legs look beautiful, and an aroused bride, visually stunning - while at the same time massaging a brides legs while she is physically active during her wedding or honeymoon fucking. Garter belts usually come with either four or six straps and the garter belt you choose will have a profound effect on the way you look and feel in your wedding gown and during sex. If you're choosing one to wear all day and you plan to have sex later on, the emphasis should be on comfort. Please go for a lightweight design, although look for a deep top for maximum tummy support. For wedding night sex were you would change into a new ensemble, the choice is much more varied. You could think about a bustier or corset for those romantic wedding night moments when you need some help staying upright! A bustier or corset with shoulder straps will give you even more support as your shoulders will then help to keep things in shape while you are penetrated by your groom. Top quality garter belts will have different length straps on the front, back, and sides. If the garter belt has four straps the back pair should be an inch or two longer than the front. If you've got six straps the back pair should still be longest: an inch longer than those at the side, which are in turn an inch longer than the ones at the front. Seamed stockings are the ultimate in chic and a joy to wear while getting pummeled, but you may find that the seams have a life of their own. To keep them straight, avoid garter belts that place the straps at the side and instead look for one which has them further round to the back. This is especially important if your legs are slim. Now for the stockings themselves. When pantyhose unfortunately came along they were seen as the comfortable, convenient alternative to stockings, but recent reports have revealed that they are also the cause of long-term health problems of which feminine itching is just the start. This is not something believe me you want happening on your wedding or honeymoon night! Don't worry, as the latest microfibre technology means that stockings can be every bit as comfortable as mundane pantyhose. If you ask me, panty hose were created by groups of gay women hating mad scientists in some German lab, or deranged feminists who were anti all things feminine. +The length of the stockings are all-important! If necessary, buy a size larger than you are used to. The garter belt straps be can be adjusted to take up the slack. For maximum leg coverage, you may find that corsets offer the shortest and highest straps. On the other hand if you have shorter legs, it is also possible to attach the suspender further down the stocking top, or welt, to create an appealing gathered effect, reminiscent of so much '50s glamour. When you first switch to stockings you may find they try to pull the garterbelt down, particularly if they are too short or if they stretch when you squat on your lover in the female on top position. If your stockings contain Lycra you can keep the straps tight as the Lycra makes the fabric far more stretchy than nylon alone. I found this out on my honeymoon five years ago. Stockings are easy to wear and simple to care for.

If you follow the rules set out here, I can't guarantee that your story will be accepted, but it won't be rejected for conversation errors. I strongly recommend the essay _How To Make Characters Talk._ This post doesn't replace that one, but is intended to cover the basics in one page. I am writing it as a conversation to demonstrate the rules in action. +""What is a conversation?"" you ask. +I answer, ""This is."" +This exchange consists of quotes by two different speakers. The words spoken are set off by quotation marks (aka 'double quotes'). The punctuation for what they say goes inside the quotation marks. Each time the speaker changes, the change is marked by starting a new paragraph. These few rules will fix most of the issues involving formatting conversation. Honest! +You persist. ""There has to be more to it."" +""There's a lot more, but a vast majority of the problems are addressed by following just two rules. Punctuation goes inside the quote and a new paragraph is needed every time the speaker changes."" You clearly aren't convinced, so I continue. "" _Strunk and White_ has a chapter devoted to the issue, but most of the errors that lead to stories being rejected involve just these two rules. +""Of course there are other rules. For example, if the quote spans more than one paragraph, there is no closing quote at the end of the first paragraph, but the following paragraph opens with a quotation mark. This helps readers keep track of who's talking. I didn't make the rules, but I pretty much have them down."" +You look at what's been said so far (noticing the 'missing' closing quote a couple paragraphs back). ""OK, you seem to know what you're talking about. So what are the rules about capitalization? In your first example, you have a comma, a quotation mark and then you capitalize the next word as if it was a new sentence."" +Looking back, I see your point. ""The quoted text is the beginning of a sentence, so it starts with a capital. The tag, the clause identifying the speaker, isn't a complete sentence so it ends with a comma. The quote in this paragraph is preceded by a complete sentence, so it ends with a period."" +""What about quotes without a tag identifying the speaker?"" +""That's part of why you have to start a new paragraph every time the speaker changes. It helps the reader keep track of who is saying what. What is said can also help keep things clear. You asked a question and I answered, so the reader knows you were the speaker of the preceding paragraph, and knows that I am answering your question in this one. This can eliminate a lot of 'he said' 'she said' verbiage."" +With a smug look you ask, ""OK hotshot, what about questions?"" +I ignore your expression as I answer, ""Questions are generally handled the same way. If the speaker is asking a question, the question mark goes inside the quotation marks."" +""What do you mean by 'generally handled the same way'?"" +I was wondering when this would come up. ""Your question actually provides the answer and brings up another point in the process. I'll address the new point first. In your quote, you quoted me. Nesting quotes comes up occasionally and all the basic rules apply, except that the nested quote uses single quote marks (apostrophes) -- to distinguish them from the main quote. You asked a question, there is a question mark inside the quotations marks. The quoted text is not a question, so the question mark is outside of the single quote marks."" +This particular rule deserves a slightly closer look. Did you say ""I'll have mine on the rocks""? Is a question, but what you said isn't, so the question mark goes outside the quote. If it were, ""Did you say I'll have mine on the rocks?"" The complete quote is a question, so the question mark goes inside the quote. It's a subtle distinction, but easily mastered with some practice. +The only other situation I can think of where punctuation may fall outside the quotes is when quoting written communication. The rest of the rules are the same, but the contents of the e-mail, text or whatever goes inside the quote marks. The quoted text is then followed by the appropriate punctuation. If the text message didn't have punctuation (does it ever?), add it outside the quote marks. +Looking back over our conversation, I see that all of the key points I wanted to address are covered. I know that there is more a novice writer will need to master, but I've covered the basics of conversations. The rest can be addressed in other posts. +I hope you found this little exercise helpful. It's possible to have stories where 'not a word was spoken' but it's rare.

By consenting I mean two -way enjoyment that isn't coerced or manipulated. +Yes, it can be dangerous if not approached with due caution, and it certainly has the possibility of being messy too, but the stigma attached to butt-sex more than those issues is why a lot of couples don't even try it. A lot of couples may have had a rushed/painful attempt at butt-sex and don't ever revisit that back door at all. +My advice to those that are curious is to start experimenting gingerly with your partner and learn from each experience as you go. Step by step you can get there, but it could take a while so be patient. If you fantasize about having butt-sex with your partner, I recommend you look at it as a journey not just something you want to check off your bucket list. +Done correctly there is really a lot more to butt-sex than meets the eye. It can have a positive effect on you beyond just fulfilling a naughty fantasy. You can actually have stress in your anus just like you do in your neck and shoulders or anywhere else, you would be surprised at what a nice round of butt-sex can do for both you and your partner's wellbeing. +My wife Gwendolyn and I enjoy butt-sex every now and then, it's like a rainy day or weekend thing for us. We don't plan or coordinate it, I just kind of know when she's up for it. After some warmup foreplay and prep with her favorite silicone lube she will wind up on the edge of our bed with her legs spread wide and I will be standing close on the floor pulling her toward me. +This position always works best for us, it has to do with getting the angle just right but also I think it's a mental thing too. I am standing up holding her legs high and wide in a dominate positon while easing my thick cock into her tight little ass-hole. We take turns getting off, she by rubbing her clit orgasms very hard and then I usually fill her up with my crème after her orgasm has subsided. +Fucking Gwendolyn's butt is more work that just regular sex and the mood has to be just right too, but something about it excites us maybe because it's taboo, or slightly dangerous, and exceptionally naughty. +I dutifully ease into her ass, closely following her directions as if I'm backing up a trailer until she has rubbed her clit to a earthshattering orgasm. I'm ecstatic whenever she has such an intense orgasm but also relieved that now I'm free to focus on my own orgasm. I do like to cum inside her ass, but just partly inside her maybe a couple of inches, right where her tight sphincter ring can rub on the sensitive part of my shaft just below the head. +Some dirty talk back and forth really heats up something that's already frickin hot. Dirty talking just naturally lends itself to butt-sex anyway, and about the third time I mutter something about her ""tight little hole"", I usually lose it and fill her ass with my hot sticky crème. +We didn't start out having hot butt-sex though it has been a journey to where we are now, and I will try to highlight the key points our butt- sex revolution. Getting into Gwendolyn's backdoor had long been a fantasy of mine, a destination that I really didn't know how to get to. When I finally was able to stick a finger inside her tight little hole the excitement was dizzying. +Initially; Gwendolyn didn't seem particularly keen on anal spelunking even after she could bring herself to orgasm by rubbing her clit while her tight little hole rhythmically clenched at my slick index finger. +When I introduced small anal toys to our sessions and she orgasmed pretty hard with them inserted too, that is if the mood was right and was amicable to that sort of thing. The introduction of sex toys was definitely a step forward; she prefers a slick silicone anal toy over my big knobby finger and started craving more anal play. Finally, once we found a couple of larger silicone toys she liked that gave us confidence that she could accept my thickness too. +For the Guys; pointing out the obvious here- it just makes sense if you're going to go fishing around in her nether-regions you should do some exploring on your own back 40 first right? The shower is a good place to do that (use a mild soap like Dove) and who knows you might just stumble across your prostate, which is a good thing! +I had that ""eureka moment"" of locating my prostate while exploring in the shower that way. Nowadays, I love a good prostate massage from Gwendolyn, but years ago I was clueless about it. Once I got my finger in just the right spot WOW! I got so excited that with a soapy hand I quickly jerked myself off, but the orgasm was different. It came from deep inside me at the base of my cock , a huge orgasm that rolled over me with my ass clenching at my finger. It was the same contractions I felt around my finger when Gwendolyn had cum while rubbing her clit. +Moving forward till today, depending on my mood I'd just as soon have her butt-fuck me as the other way around, after all I'm the one with the prostate! Funny how with age and experience I have totally changed my thoughts on the topic of being on the receiving in between the two of us. +She will oblige me with a rocking ass prostate massage, but fucking me is not something she craves to do with pent-up desires to be a ""Top"" or ""Dom"" that I'm aware of, she just thinks it's hot to witness me cum really hard. Getting onto kinky side-paths occasionally is just something we do for fun. +In conclusion, I recommend just about everything you read on the topic- Start small, lots of lube, lots of foreplay, and relax. +Remember it's a journey not a destination." +93,Caged Husband = Happy Wife,GeorgeSolomon343,How To,2018-11-01,2018-11-01,2022-01-04 08:26:39,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/caged-husband-happy-wife,Why women who cage their husbands are happier...,"['Cage', 'Chastity', 'Chastity Device', 'Enforced Chastity', 'Male Chastity', 'Orgasms Denial']",4.07,"By now, many women have seen or heard of enforced male chastity. The subject appears with increasing frequency in the mainstream media, and images of men locked in chastity devices have even appeared in a number of recent movies. Perhaps you have seen photos online of men locked in plastic or metal chastity cages. But, are you aware of the benefits that you could be enjoying by locking your husband in a male chastity device? If not, read on... +This writing is based on things that I've learned from a number of women that I've known over the years who cage their husbands. Two of these women also cuckold their husbands, and I've served as a 'bull' for them. Others are friends that I've met either in real-life or online, who have sought my advice as they embarked on their journey of enforcing male chastity with their husbands. I've stayed in contact with most of these women over the years, and they are always eager to share with me the latest developments in their journeys. +First and foremost, if your husband has hinted that he might want to 'experiment' with you locking him in a male chastity device, run (don't walk) to your favorite supplier of adult toys, and buy a male chastity device today. You won't regret it. +After locking your husband in a male chastity device, your husband will no longer be able to ejaculate without you unlocking the device. This means that YOU (not him) will now be in control of his orgasms. You will determine IF he cums, WHEN he cums, and HOW he cums. +Most women report that they begin to notice significant changes after an initial lock-up period of about three weeks. Around that time, you will start to notice behavioral changes in your husband, which you will immediately appreciate. He will be less agitated with you, less belligerent, more attentive to you, and more affable to you. Here's why: +1) He can no longer simply go somewhere and jerk-off. He's probably been doing that more than you realize. But, now that he no longer can simply get himself off, he NEEDS YOU for sexual satisfaction. As a result of this, you have now just become infinitely more important and more valuable to him. He now sees you in very different light than he did before. This will change the way he thinks of you and how he treats you. He will try hard not to disapoint you and he will be eager to please you. If, by chance, he digresses and treats you in a way that you find unacceptable, simply say, 'One more week...'. He will know exactly what that means, and you will see the look of regret in his eyes as he immediately wishes he hadn't done what ever he did to displease you. +2) Taking control of his cock and his orgasms puts a dent in his male ego. The male ego is the source of most problems in a marriage. Basically, it's what makes men assholes. And, the male ego is what makes many men think that they are naturally superior to women. But, nothing breaks down a man's ego more than the fact that he no longer has control of his own cock - the quintessential symbol of his very manhood. By breaking down his male ego, he'll be less aggresive and more pleasant to be around, and he will begin to see you (and other women) as equal (or even superior) to himself. +3) Just because he doesn't get to cum doesn't mean that you don't. His cock won't be available to you while it's locked in its cage, but his mouth will be eager to serve you. You can (an should) demand as much oral sex as you want while he is locked in chastity. Because he knows that he won't be cumming, he won't be distracted with the pursuit of his own pleasure while he pleases you, and therefore he will be able to focus all of his effort and energy on your pleasure. And, he will be eager to do so because of number 1 above. +There are numerous articles online that cover the pro's and con's of the different types of devices available, the logistics as far as fitting, cleaning, and other considerations. (FYI, I recommend a metal device. It will have a psychological effect on your husband of being more like a prison than a plastic one). A quick Google search will lead you to a wealth of information on these subjects, so I won't cover these here. However, the important thing to remember during the initial lock-up period is to constantly remind him that YOU now own his cock. Remind him several times a day of this. Tease him about it. Remind him that he won't be cumming until YOU allow it. Wear the key to his cage on a necklace around your neck, so that he constantly sees it. Dress and act provocatively and suggestively around him while he is locked in his cage. Play with his caged cock and balls, and remark when you see his cock trying to get hard inside its cage. After he's given you as many orgasms as you can handle with his tongue, ask him (sarcastically) if he would like to cum too. Then, when he says, 'yes', express your 'pity' that his release date is still weeks away. Feel his balls to see how full they are. Ask him what he would be willing to do for a blowjob (his answers might surprise you). You might think that all of this is very mean (and it is), but it is important that you do these things to reinforce the fact that you now control his cock and his orgasms. Doing so will amplify the effects of you caging him (particularly numbers 1 and 2 above). +After the initial lock-up period of about three weeks, you should grant him the privilege of an orgasm. Some women couch it as a sort of 'reward' for their husband. How you let him cum is up to you. It can be through sex, or you can give him a blowjob - or you can simply allow him to jerkoff while you supervise. Regardless of how you allow him to cum, you must immediately lock him back in his cage afterwards. There should be no mistake that his enforced chastity will continue. +Going forward, each woman that I've known has handled things differently. Some have kept their husbands on fairly short release schedule of only several weeks between releases, while others have used much longer durations. Some women have incorporated other ways of asserting their authority over their husband and further breaking down their husband's male ego - such as forcing their husband to eat his own cum after being granted the privilege of an orgasm, cuckolding their husband, taking their husband's anal virginity, forcing their husband to perform bi acts, etc. Many women who cage their husband see cuckolding as a natural next step after caging - i.e. even though they are getting as much oral sex as the want from their husband, they feel that they have a need to be filled, and being that their husband's cock is caged, cuckolding is the only other option. Other women have not gone beyond caging their husbands, and have no intention of doing so. Each woman's journey has taken its own unique course. +At some point, I plan to write a follow-up article, perhaps highlighting some of the more interesting journeys briefly described above.

He is in control and decides who to call, when to call, what to talk about, and how long to talk. +I've not had much personal experience with any of these commercial phone sex lines, aside from having done research and written some erotic scripts for a few of the local recorded sex lines. However I do wonder about the authenticity of the fantasy sex line operators. Are they really attractive wanton wenches who masturbate to orgasm while talking dirty to their clients? Do they even get aroused, or are they simply bored working women of all shapes and sizes who file their nails while reading scripts and watching the clock tick over till the end of their shift? +Perhaps it doesn't really matter since it is a fantasy, an illusion that one is buying when they dial into one of these lines, and as long as it provides the kind of gratification the client is seeking on his own terms, its money well spent. +If you are thinking about calling one of the professional phone sex lines, here are some suggestions for consideration: +Use your head, the one above your neck, and check out the internet or local newspapers in advance to familiarize yourself with what is available and which services will appeal to you and your price range. Basically there are the categorized recorded lines where a menu is provided of recorded messages in which different erotic scenarios are graphically described and these usually run for a period of around ten minutes, during which time you can do your own thing. Then there are the party-lines and chat lines which are live services where you can speak directly with the phone sex operator while the meter runs on. +Whichever you choose, it's important to fully understand how the billing is done. Will you be required to use a credit card or will it be billed directly to your phone account? If you are using a credit card, what is the rate per minute? Some lines have a minimum set charge or flat rate for a specified block of time with extra time billed for separately. Are you calling a premium-rate telephone number where a higher that normal rate is charged and how will it reflect on your telephone account? Apparently some lines direct you through foreign places like the Caribbean but are configured to charge the caller just like a toll number. However these may show up on your phone bill as is, and if you aren't the only one in the household who looks at the bill, they may generate some disconcerting questions, like, ""Who the hell's been calling Trinidad?"" Don't wait until the blood is displaced from your brain to an insistent throb in your cock before you start hunting down a line to try, and then inadvertently find yourself in hot water later. +Time is money, so sometimes it's best to postpone the call until you are well into arousal if you are budget-restricted. Remember the longer you remain on the line with an operator the more it's going to cost you. In general, phone sex operators are paid incentives or incremental bonuses for keeping their clients on the phone for extended periods of time so consider keeping an eye on your watch or having a clock nearby to ensure that billable minutes don't get out of control. +Since it's a business transaction, be a smart consumer. Start small and be selective. It only takes a couple of minutes to get a sense of whether the sex line operator is someone who you could enjoy and if her talents are what you're looking for. There does need to be some chemistry between you and her, and if she isn't going to blow more than your socks off, move on. +Have some ideas and be open and clear in telling her exactly what you are in the mood for and what you will be requiring especially if you have some role play fantasy or specific scenario in mind. Remember it's a phone call to a sex line operator who is a stranger and it is all going to be about talk and fantasy. It's no time for her to play guessing games, to string you along, or for you to get shy or indecisive. +A quality phone sex operator should be well informed and articulate about a wide variety of fantasy subjects including domination, bisexual threesomes or cross dressing. And she should be able to tell stories or graphically describe complicated scenes without being tongue-tied or shocked by callers who request them. +You may find that some phone sex companies and their operators will refuse to entertain unconventional fantasies of an extreme or taboo nature. So, if you're looking for titillation involving subjects such as scat, necrophilia, abduction and torture or other bizarre unspeakables you will have to research the internet for specialized lines that accommodate your particular tastes. They may not be plentiful, but they do exist. +However, contrary to popular belief it's not only men, or women who work on adult phone lines, that participate in phone sex. It also exists in the context of intimate relationships or between lovers who are separated by distance or circumstances. It's the perfect way to have a carnal connection when you and your lover are apart and enables you to merge emotionally, share physical feelings and ultimately reach sexual release. +Many people simply add a little anticipation and spice to their love lives by discussing their fantasies and desires over the telephone and masturbating together. +Now, I'm not suggesting that you pick up the phone and talk dirty to the first stranger that answers, but if you have an established mental and sexual rapport with another person it can be a mind blowing and intensely exciting experience that can make the lines sizzle. +Here I do speak from experience and can vouch for the fact that phone sex between people who care about each other or have a strong emotional connection is so much more than talking dirty or a few pants and moans on a phone. It is more like a dance of seduction with the mind and words are the music. Sometimes the music is hot and played with fire like a tango, evoking lust and wantonness and exploding in a climatic ending. The words set the tempo, are scintillating and lusty and can go something like this: +""I want you."" +""Mmm, you do? Tell me how much?"" +""So much that I'm going to call you as soon as my next meeting is done."" +""Oooh, that sounds delicious. I can't wait baby."" +""Uh-huh, me neither. Thinking about you already has me walking around here with a hard-on. Break out your toys; I'll call you in 30 minutes."" +Click. +Ring. +""I'm alone."" +""You do know that waiting for you like this has made me so wet, don't you?"" +""And you have no idea how fucking hard I am. My cock is tight and full. I'm unzipping now. Are you naked?"" +""Yeah I am, spread out on the bed with the curtains open."" +""Ohh you naughty girl! And what are you doing?"" +""I've been touching my nipples, making them hard, running my fingers over my tummy..."" +""And your pussy?"" +""No, I wanted to wait for you, baby."" +""Mmmm, spread the lips open for me, slide a finger inside your cunt and play with your clit too."" +""Ooh I'm soaked. My pussy wants your cock so badly..."" +""And I want to fuck you so hard. I want to push my cock all the way inside you and thrust deeply."" +""Ahhh God, Yesss! I'm fingering myself. Mmmm."" +""Fuck, I'm leaking precum. I'm smearing it over the tip now and stroking my cock up and down."" +""Oh God."" +""Do you have your toys there? All of them? +""Mmm yeah I do, with fresh batteries."" +""Good because I want a big thick one in your pussy and one in your tight little asshole as well. Slide them in for me baby but don't turn them on yet."" +""Oooh my ass loves being opened. I'm pushing it in but I wish it was your cock. Arghhh, fuck! I'm so stretched baby with two vibrators in me. I wish you could see how my cunt is wrapped around this big black one and how hot it looks with my pussy lips gripping it. +""Oh God!"" Let me hear, baby. Put the phone down there at your pussy and thrust it in and out of yourself. Let me hear how fucking juicy and wet you are..."" +I think you get the general idea of hot lusty phone talk. What else can that lead to, but an explosive mind-blowing orgasm? +As with physical lovemaking, sometimes the tempo is more of a waltz; smooth and gliding, seductive and tender. It may go something like this: +""I want to kiss you deeply my baby and run my hands all over your naked flesh."" +""Mmm and I want to run my tongue over your chest, suck on your nipples and lick all the way down to your navel."" +""Ah you sound so sexy angel. I wish you could suck me now. I'd love your sweet lips pulling around my cock. Long deep, slow sucks..."" +""I want you so much baby, I wish you were here inside me."" +""I am my darling. I am deep inside you and I want to hear you come hard, my love..."" +Yes, agreed it's masturbation, but there's no doubt of the connection and the profound intimacy. It can be like making tender love or fucking with wild abandonment. +Phone sex can happen just about anywhere where people have some privacy, but the most important aspect of phone-sex is imagination. If you've never tried it before, you and your partner will need to allow yourselves entry into the world of intimate erotic conversation and fantasy together. +If you have absolutely no clue on how to get started, try imagining what you've always wanted to do with this person and describe it step by step or share your steamy desires. +Initially some people may feel awkward or tongue-tied and it's best not to try and force yourself to say something vulgar or X-rated that feels or sounds contrived. Rather just chat as you normally would and ease into a more intimate exchange by saying something as simple as ""I wish you were lying next to me."" Or you might want to remind him or her of an incredibly hot session you had together and how horny thinking about it has made you. +You could also explore sexual situations that you have yet to try together in reality. That's bound to get the juices flowing both literally and mentally and you can go from there. +The way you use your voice and the things you utter to each other are triggers that spike and enhance the stimulation, so yes, you do have to be graphic or explicit. That's just how it works. And you do need to be comfortable using words that usually turn someone on. When you fantasize and are getting off alone you don't think of words like ""penis"" and ""vagina."" You think in more vivid and salacious terms like ""big hard cock,"" or ""tight pussy"" or "" dripping wet cunt."" Don't be afraid to say those words. You'll be surprised at how liberating and how arousing it is for both of you. And it will add to the excitement and intensity of the experience if you can just kick back and let yourself go. Hot, dirty talk gets easier and comes more naturally once you're relaxed and aroused. And there is nothing that beats hearing the inflections in the other person's voice, the sound of their breathing changing, the little gasps and moans of pleasure as their excitement grows and their orgasm builds. +So, once she begins revealing that she imagines you treating her like a slut, pushing her up against a wall and slowly but forcefully licking and biting her everywhere until you finally thrust your cock inside her ass, or he reveals that he wants to blindfold you and eat your pussy until his face is wet, I think you'll manage to find your sexual imagination lurking somewhere. +Discussing fantasies is often a huge turn on and are especially intimate and arousing for sharing during phone sex. If your own fantasies don't come to mind in graphic detail, why not ask your partner what their fantasies are? Or if you really want to up the erotic ante and be adventurous, consider sharing your deepest, darkest secret fantasy, which by implication suggests that it's possibly going to be a little over the top and very wild. It's probably also not something you would ever do in reality but is great fantasy fodder for screaming, toe-curling orgasms. +Fantasies could entail pretending to break into her home, making her your sex slave and having forceful rough sex with her. During phone play a normally conservative lady can become a hot slutty bitch or a whip wielding dominatrix. A married father can be a raunchy bisexual stud enjoying a gang bang or a forty year old can be daddy's bad little girl. +We all have hidden desires that we may be too reserved to talk directly about with a partner, and yet they really arouse us. With the phone as a go-between it can liberate you to open up mentally and feel comfortable to express verbally without fear of judgment. No matter what those fantasies are, you can explore them through the art of slow, seductive conversation, heavy breathing and grunts of pleasure while you touch and stroke yourself or get adventurous with your toys, in such a way that it lets the other person know that not only are you into it, but that it's exciting you to the point of orgasm as well. +There are no boundaries as long as both of you enjoy the conversation and respect each other's comfort zones. The intensity of the experience will depend on how much you are prepared to let go, how far you will allow your imagination to stray and of course how comfortable you are communicating with the person on the other side of the phone. I've had some really intense phone sex encounters where the combination of intimate talk together with the physical play has resulted in some of the most deeply satisfying climaxes and multiple orgasms I've ever had. +So, next time you're thinking of that special someone, feeling horny and can't be with them, remember that there's usually a phone in every household, hotel, pocket or handbag and a fantasy in every mind. With a little privacy and imagination, you and your partner can enjoy an erotic encounter so vivid, that you can both feel it and taste it. +And you don't have to wait for him, or her, to be away to try phone sex. Consider it as a new twist to spice up your sex life and to explore new ideas. Not only will it allow you a joyous excursion into a fantastic mind fuck, but whispering sweet nothings or purring sizzling somethings into the phone can let you get up close and personal at any time of the day or night. Plus, it will let your lover know that they are desired by you and even though you can't be together right at that moment; there is no place that you'd rather be than in their arms and in their bed. +* + _Author's Note: Thanks for taking the time to read my latest submission after a very long absence from Literotica.

I've been a dedicated camper for most of my life. I was lucky; I grew up with a father who knew how to camp. I'll take a week of camping over any other style of vacation. I can camp anywhere at anytime. I've camped in the mountains, on the prairies, the desert, and in the arctic. Summer, spring, winter, and fall, I've camped in all four seasons. +Not all forms of camping are for everyone. An inexperienced novice probably won't enjoy a week in the bush, living off the land with nothing but a map, a compass, and a trusty knife. +For the first time camper, I'd recommend an overnight stay, or a weekend at a State, or National Park. With the convenience of the internet, it's easy to check out campgrounds in your area, and see what amenities the campgrounds are equipped with. +Once you've decided where you are going, the next decision is how you are going to camp. There are two choices, tenting, or RV. I don't recommend using your vehicle as your shelter. + **Tents** +Go to the sporting goods stores, and look at the tents. Some of them even have some of their tents already set up and on display. How many people are going? You don't want to try to cram three people into a two-man tent. My rule of thumb for tent size is to add one to the number of people in your group, and look for tent of that size. So, if three are going, I'd look for a four man tent. For larger groups, two medium size tents is easier to deal with than one huge tent. +Don't be guided strictly on price. This rule is pretty much true for all camping equipment. Quality gear will cost a bit more, but generally it's worth the cost. +Once you've purchased your tent, take it home and set it up in the back yard. Take it down and set it up again. Know your equipment. The last thing you want to do is get to the campground when it's dark and try to set the tent up for the first time, reading the instructions by flashlight. +I'd highly recommend buying tent stakes separately. Generally the ones that come with the tent are flimsy at best. Wal-Mart, and other sporting goods stores sell stakes that look like big spikes, and are fairly reasonable. Don't forget to pack a hammer, or a hatchet to pound the stakes into the ground. + **Sleeping Gear** +Other than the tent, the sleeping bag is most important piece of gear. If you're not warm at night, you're not going to be comfortable. Most sleeping bags are rated to different temperatures. Know the type of weather you are going to be in, and buy your sleeping bag with that in mind. Don't buy a bag rated for 40F when the lows are going to be in 20F range, and don't buy an Arctic mummy bag rated for -50F when the lows are going to be in the 40's. Again, don't let the cost be your only guide. A good sleeping bag will cost a little more, but will give you years of service. +Air mattress or foam, that all depends on your personal preference. My only suggestion is if you buy air mattresses; buy the best you can find and afford. Coleman and other outdoors companies sell battery-powered air pumps. They're not expensive, and much easier than huffing, puffing, and hyperventilating while trying to get your bed ready for the night. + **Clothing.** +Your footwear is probably the most important article of clothing while camping. If you can't keep your feet dry and warm, you're not going to having a good time. I'd highly recommend a good pair of hiking boots, and take two pairs of socks for each day of camping. +Know what the weather is likely to be while you are camping, and pack appropriate clothing. The evenings can be cool, so pack along a jacket or sweater. Take an extra change of clothing in case something happens, falling into a lake or a stream is not totally unknown. Take along some disposable rain gear, it's cheap, easy to store, and a godsend if it begins to rain. Use the motto of the Boy Scouts, _Be Prepared_. + **Cooking and Food Storage**. +How will you prepare your meals? I'd stay away from trying to cook over the fire. That's an art form all in its own. I'd recommend buying a Coleman stove that uses the propane cylinders. They're easier, and safer to use than the stoves that use white gas for fuel. No pumping is required, just screw the cylinder on, and follow the instructions for lighting the stove. Good quality cookware is essential. Cheap pots and pans have a tendency to burn the food instead of cooking it. Garage sales and second hand stores are good places to look for inexpensive camping cookware. +Plan your meals before leaving home, and for the first few trips, keep them simple. Find what works for you, and what doesn't. A small barbeque is a great item to take camping. +Plastic tubs are great for storing and organizing dry and canned food items. A good cooler is a necessity for storing perishables. Block ice with last longer than ice cubes, some campers fill empty half-gallon milk containers with water and freeze them. Use large re-sealable bags to store meat, and cheese. +I can't emphasize this enough. Do not store, cook, or eat food in your tent. Keep your food well away from where you are sleeping, otherwise, you may wake and find a furry visitor in your tent. +A good-sized plastic, or tin washtub can be used for doing the dishes and for washing up. Tin plates, and cups may be the romantic stuff of cowboys, but remember they transfer heat instantly. Many a lip has been burned with the first cup of coffee. + **RV's** +An RV will allow you to camp with a greater degree of comfort. They offer a regular bed to sleep in, your own toilet and shower, and a fridge to store perishables. There are four main types of RV's Travel Trailers (I'll include tent trailers in with the travel trailers), fifth wheel trailers, motorhomes, (Classes A, B, and C) and Campers (The slide in type). Each has it's own unique advantages and disadvantages, but each has one thing in common, cost. +You can rent an RV, generally a Class A, or C motorhome, just look in the Yellow Pages. If you are considering any type of RV, I'd highly recommend renting a few times to see what you like, and don't like. +Camping in an RV is what you make of it. You can combine the comfort of knowing you will be sleeping in your bed after a night by the fire with hot chocolate and toasted marshmallows, with the exhilaration of cooking and eating breakfast in the great outdoors. + **Miscellaneous** +Never forget that you are in the wilds when camping. There's more than you and your fellow campers at the campground. Always be aware of your surroundings. Don't approach wildlife, no matter how cute and cuddly they look. +Invest in a propane lantern. Like the stoves, they're easier to use than the models that burn white gas. The rechargeable lanterns are great for kids, and inside of the tent. +Portable two-way radios are a great way of keeping in touch with the camp if someone goes hiking or fishing. +Always take a good first aid kit, and don't forget the sunscreen. +Have a pair of good quality flashlights, and spare batteries. +Make a check list of items you will be taking. +Don't be shy about talking to the park ranger. They are a wealth of information for their park. +Most of all, enjoy the outdoors. +As you camp, you will begin to learn what works for you, and what doesn't. You will find the more you camp, the easier it gets. +There's a long weekend coming, and I'll be camping. Who knows, you might be camped next to me. Come on over, say hello and have a cup of coffee." +96,Can You Kiss Me Like This?,RedHairedandFriendly,How To,2006-05-15,2006-05-15,2022-01-04 08:26:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/can-you-kiss-me-like-this,An author's take on writing the perfect kiss.,"['Examples Of Kissing', 'Guide To Writing', 'Help In Different Kissing Styles', 'Writing A Kiss']",4.54,"A kiss is just a kiss. . .NOT +Call this a sequel to _My Take on Writing a Female Orgasm_ or just a new 'How To' story; either way, I'm going to write about that old school yard rhyme K-I-S-S-I-N-G. How do you put feelings into a kiss? How do you make it more than just two wet tongues sliding in a warm cave of teeth and gums? +Stop and take a minute to look at your characters and their situations. . .then imagine yourself in the embrace of that individual whose lips are coming down to assault yours. +Assault? +Yes, that's the word I used. It is an assault. It is supposed to be if done correctly. It is supposed to attack your senses and in this case since you aren't standing in front of your reader kissing them, you have to attack them with your words, though for some readers, they would be willing to trade up and take the real thing if you were offering it. +Kissing. +A simple word for something that brings about so many changes in a person's body. A virgin kiss. A welcome home kiss. A hero kiss. A rapist's kiss. A kiss between mother and child, father and son. A kiss of desperation and longing. So many kisses and yet you have to portray them all differently. The question is how? +I'm not here to tell you this is how to write a kiss. I'm just offering a source to come back to if you desire, or a starting point to consider. I'll give examples of kissing and you are free to interpret them in whatever way you desire. +Do I draw you into the moment or was I flat in my description? I want to know what the character is feeling. I want to be assaulted by the lips of the person claiming my hero/heroine. + **Virgin Kiss** + _Emily looked up to Tyler; she'd been dreaming of this moment since she was a little girl. She'd had a crush on the boy since Elementary School, now he was a man and he stood before her. His lips came closer to hers. They were the same lips that brought smiles to her face. Now as the distance that separated them was pushed away she had no more thoughts except one; the need to please him._ +Their lips touched and she breathed in the scent of his cologne, his breath and his very being. Her heart skidded to a halt as the soft brush of his mouth against hers forced her knees to grow weak. Emily closed her eyes and her fingers slid up to grip his arms as she melted into him. She felt his tongue slip out and when it touched her lips, she gasped from the surprise, but she opened her mouth willingly. +She felt the spark of heat rush through her and her face flamed hot from the emotions that ran over her. Unsure of what to do, but loving the sensations that were quietly surfacing she tilted her head and timidly touched his tongue with hers. She was lost then as his fingers moved into her head and coaxed her to deepen the kiss and when she did, she was lost. +Words like dreaming of and crush, let the reader know that this moment is one that Emily has wanted for quite some time. That sets the stage for the reader that this is a big move for this young woman, perhaps she's a teenager on her first date, in this case though for Lit. reasons she's eighteen and perhaps lived like a nun. *wink* +Her heart skidded. This shows that she was taken back by the initial contact of skin on skin. She probably felt some tingles and perhaps a tilting of her world, because she was finally kissing the boy that had become a man. Words are your paints and you have to brush them onto the pages, but do you do it lightly or do you boldly stroke them? + **Desperate Times** + _Marc grabbed Sophia and pulled her to him. Their eyes locked and held. They both had denied the attraction, but now as the clock ticked down the final seconds, they both knew that this was it for them. They had only this moment to show each other what they felt. His mouth crushed hers and without thinking of the future, their tongues collided with each other._ +He pushed deeply into her mouth as she forced her tongue into his. They battled, both wanting to feast on what they had denied themselves. She clung to him as her head twisted to the right then the left. Each time she moved, she drove deeper inside his welcoming home. +The sound of the timer reached their ears and they separated. They stared at the swollen lips that they had denied tasting for so long. Their embrace tightened as their lips met one last time. +This couple died. Before they did though they shared a kiss that was full of weeks, months, maybe years of denial. They both wanted more, but something forced them to never act on it, until it was to late. When they became aware that the end was near the desperation in never knowing what could have been, broke through the barriers that were placed in front of them and they took the leap into each others arms. A kiss. . .simple and yet powerful. +Showing the reader the power of a ""desperate"" kiss is important. You want them to feel the spark of heat that comes when these two strong minded individuals finally give into the basic instinct to connect with someone they are attracted to. Words such as: longing, denial, taste, swollen, bruised, can be used to show a kiss that is wanted, but for some reason was held off. Now the couple is hungry for it; they can't wait and they eventually give in. + **Teasing Kiss** + _Sylvia smirked as she slid up Gabe's body. She'd left all his clothes on while she crawled all over him. Now as she looked down on his smiling face she thought of what to do next. Her finger moved over his lips, tracing the shape. Keeping her blue eyes open she closed the distance between them and her tongue slipped out to take the path her finger had moments before caressed. She licked the upper lip of her spouse, then the lower, eventually she slid her tongue over the seam._ +Gabe opened his mouth, begging her to come in and devour him. His body tingled in anticipation for more. His tongue came out and licked the taste of her on his skin. She jumped back and winked, not allowing him to kiss her. When he retreated she returned and this time she slipped her tongue over his teeth, enjoying the smooth pearls. Her teeth tugged on his lower lip, before she was to aroused to deny herself any longer. ""Kiss me,"" she told him. +He did. +Can you see Sylvia straddling her lover and just staring down on him with this look of. . .""Gottcha"" and a naughty wink? I can. I hope you can too. I see this woman who feels empowered, but as soon as she kisses him, tastes his mouth and plays with his lips, she can't hold back, she wants more and knows only he can give it to her. +What happened next? Did he roll her onto her back and have his way with her? Did he rip his clothes off and dive immediately into her slick sex? Or. . .did he return the favor and tease her into submission? +Words used here let the reader know that this woman was going to tease her lover and build up the tension. Sliding, crawling, tracing. . .slow movements on part of the character lets the reader know this is a tease that will slowly build up to something promising. Begging and anticipating lets you feel how much the recipient is wanting this to happen and how much they wish the other would hurry and end their suffering. + **True Love** + _Rebecca looked into the eyes of her husband. They had been through so much, now as he stood before her on a day that was similar to the one they shared fifty years ago, she felt herself being pulled back into the past. She loved this man and she could tell that he too loved her. They had been through so much and she longed for many years to come. Her fingers swept into his hair and when the Minister pronounced them husband and wife - again, she pressed her fingers into his scalp, beckoning him to meet her half way._ +Alan studied his wife and placed both his hands on her face. He cupped her beautiful features and lowered his lips to hers. They touched, merged together just as they did so long ago. This time when they kissed it was not the kiss of youths, but the kiss of two adults who had found themselves still very much in love. His fingers slid to her hair and held her to him. His tongue slid inside her mouth and hers slipped inside his. They stroked slowly, each renewing the hunger that they shared. Each danced a melody upon the other, both gliding and stroking, each one desiring to taste the other. +When they separated their eyes held and everyone in the room was speechless as they took in the couple that had seen their children grow and become parents. The power of their kiss was felt by many and yet only the couple themselves sensed how much the other needed them. +I hope you feel the strong bind that this couple has. They have renewed their marriage vows in front of friends and family, kids and grandkids and they are looking forward to experiencing many more years to come. I can sense theirs is a love that is strong and has stood the test of time. Theirs is dependable and sure. They have had ups and downs, but in the end their love conquered all, which is how love should be. +Their kiss is represented by time. It is seen with words that display a gentleness and a longing that both people share. Stroking, sliding, gliding. Words that are smooth and sure, just like their marriage. + **Forced Kiss** + _His arm gripped hers in a vise like hold and he dragged her to the back of the alley. His eyes were dark, almost black as they feasted on her skin. With a forceful shove he pressed himself against her and forced her back into the hard brick wall. Jack Barns refused to let the spicy vixen scream. He pulled the gun from where he'd pushed it against her waist and pushed his tongue into her open mouth. She was going to scream, now she was forced to accept his invasion._ +He plunged the thick muscle against hers and pulled her head to the side, giving him deeper access. He raped and bullied her mouth, bruising her lips and when she fought back, his teeth began their assault. He bit down on her lower lip and sucked on it, growling low as he rubbed his growing erection against her. His tongue licked at her, tasting the blood he'd forced from her. The cut now bleeding freely was ignored for the time being as he began to drive back into her sweet home. +She'd fight him. He liked it when they fought. +I see this as a dark invasion behind a seedy bar. Perhaps the character was lured their by someone she knew or just someone approached her as she was about to walk into the establishment. Either way, she's being forced to accept this man's kiss and she doesn't want it. +Words are there for us to use. We have to show the reader the characters thoughts and feelings. The words, drag, vise like hold, dark, feast, forceful all have strong meanings. They show dominance and the situation seems to be dangerous. This is revealed later with the words gun, scream, invasion. +The kiss is a demanding one. It says. . .I'm taking you, whether you like it or not. Fight me. . .I want you to. I can picture this woman struggling and her adrenaline is pumping through her veins. Will she win or will she lose her battle? +Just because you see a kiss in your head doesn't mean the reader will. You need to let the reader see it too. A kiss is not just a kiss. It is so much more. If you are writing a story with no emotion, depth, or true colors then how can a reader see it? + _Jill kissed her boyfriend Mike on the lips. It was nice. She wanted more._ +Or... + _Jill's lips pressed firmly against Mike's. Their softness beckoned her for more and she knew she would need to feast from them often._ +I think if I were Jill, I'd be wanting to kiss the lips that belonged to Mike in the second example, not the first. How bland that sentence seems. It was nice? I mean doesn't beckoning for more let a reader know... that was some kiss? Feast from them often? Again, if it wasn't nice, would she be wanting to feast from them at all? +Choose your words carefully and see what you get when your finished. Ask yourself, if I were reading this would I want to continue and see what comes next? Or would I want to pull out and drown myself from the lack of description in the words, a more painless death? +So remember there are a thousand meanings behind a kiss and it is your job as a writer to write them in there." +97,Care and Training of Your Sissy,eviltwin52,How To,2020-11-18,2020-11-18,2022-01-04 08:26:44,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/care-and-training-of-your-sissy,A how-to for those considering claiming a sissy.,"['Blowjob', 'Cock Sucking', 'Oral Sex', 'Sissy Seduction', 'Spanking']",4.27,"This is a beginner's guide to owning a sissy. Real men can claim ownership of a sissy at will and a daddy-less sissy would be a grateful and welcomed addition to a real man's domain. The sissy, however, requires care and feeding like all pets. And like all pets, proper grooming and rigid a training regimen are necessary to maintain a respectful and rewarding relationship. I will make an effort in this treatise to prepare the potential claimant for sissy ownership. +For those of you who are in denial or may not fully comprehend it, the Real Man and sissy relationship is one of Dominance and submission. It is what it is. The relationship will not work otherwise. To ignore this truth will result is a waste of both the real man's and the sissy's time and efforts. +There is a song from 1970, ""Spill the Wine"" with a verse that goes ""The fact that me, a long-haired leaping gnome..."". That description, my friends should bring to your mind the sissy. He/she's a gloriously delicate creature, full of life, usually a joy to be around. But that same sissy is a creature in need of a firm hand. Training and guidance are the real man's tools for taming the sissy and bringing her to heel. +Identifying the potential sissy: +Note: I shall refer to the sissy as her from this point on. No use in kidding ourselves as to what she really is. +The first step for those who may be seeking a sissy is to identify that individual. She could be anyone anywhere, or someone you already know. Some tell-tale signs of a potential sissy are effeminate traits and characteristics. Does that person sport a fanny pack or man purse for instance? Do they wear lots of floral print clothing that are revealing in nature? By that I mean tight pants, low cut tops or open shirts tied at the waist. Does she wear open toed shoes or sandals that show off her recent pedicure? Is that person's demeaner gentle and sweet? And the most telling, is it someone whom you sense is looking for a father-figure, a daddy? If so, you may have found your sissy. +Sidle up to her. Be-friend her. Compliment her appearance but make suggestions on what you think would be a prettier look. If she takes your advice and the next day seeks you out to ask for your approval, there, my friend, is a blow job in your future. +Take Command: +Set the hook now while you have your sissy in your orbit. Remember, she's weak minded when it comes to real men. She can't help herself. Nature has programmed her to respond in a positive manner to the attention she receives from real men. +Be friendly. Give her a firm and unexpected swat on her bottom and gage her reaction. If she jumps and emits a high-pitched squeak and smiles at you, you have yourself a sissy. If she should come off as coy and pretend to be insulted, pay that no mind. In fact, every time you pass her, whether it's the office, the store, the sidewalk, swat that ass. Let her know you are interested and will not take no for an answer. If she makes no move as to avoid you when she sees you approaching, she's interested too. Invite her to have a drink with you. +You select the place and time. Never, ever let a sissy or potential sissy have the upper hand. You make the decisions. You are the leader, the commander, the real man. She wants it that way. Let that come off as natural. If you are unsure how to act and have to work at it, the sissy will sense that weakness and may try to exploit that once you have claimed her. The time to teach the bitch you're the boss is now. Be right up front. I mean, ""Fuck her. Who the fuck cares what a sissy wants? You're the man. Act like one."" She'll adore you for it. Even if she doesn't show it outwardly at first, I guarantee she'll go home and beat her little dick remembering your manliness. +Never forget, a sissy lacks masculinity. She seeks it out in others, in real men like yourself. Masculinity is like a magnet to her. It attracts her. She's drawn to it like a moth to a light. The bitch just can't help herself. She wants to be around real men. Men who are strong willed and powerful. Men with big cocks who actually get pussy. The sissy admires those who are not like her. Those who can tame her, train her, and show her the meaning of her life. +When on your date, open the door for her. Lead her in with your hand at the small of her back. Let her sit first, helping with her chair. Always treat her like a lady... at first. Once you have come to an understanding the rules change. +Make sure to sit in a darkened corner. Order for her. If she protests, ignore her. I suggest a diluted white wine spritzer or Cosmo for her. Something that speaks ""Sex and The City"". When the server has brought you your drinks and left, compliment your date. This can be tricky as a newbie sissy may not fully understand her place in society. Lead her gently down the prim-rose path to self-realization and actualization. Touch her hand and tell her how soft it is. How pretty her eyes are how sexy her pout is. Trace her lips with a finger and watch her closely. If she licks at it or smiles, you have only but to introduce her to ""Mr. Big Stuff"" when the time is right. She may blush and get flustered. That is exactly what you want. The pump is primed and ready put out. +But she may be put off by your advances. She might say, ""Please don't,"" or ""Stop that."" If she is serious you must get serious. It's time for you to turn up that masculinity she lacks. Scowl, and act insulted by her performance. After all, you were only trying to make her feel good about herself, right? Your vexation might be just the aphrodisiac she is looking for in which case her pheromones may be activated. Or, she just may not be ready to accept her destiny. +If she should get up to leave, let her go. Fuck her, right? Who does she think she is anyway? But, and this is important, make her pay for at least her half of the bill before she runs off. Ideally, the real man should have her pay the whole fucking bill. Since she's the one ruining your evening, it is incumbent upon her to atone in some way. The firmness with which you handle the situation could very well turn the corner and have her polishing your knob minutes after leaving the bar together. +But, if she stays, if she's not offended by your advances, you're in. Touch her face. Stroke her hair. If she responds positively, move to sit beside her. Put her hand on your cock. If she pulls it away, put it there again. If she should pull her hand away again, grab her wrist with strength and keep in there. Tell her that the erection you have is her fault, that she brings out the beast in you. Tell her that since she's responsible for giving you a hard on she's equally responsible for taking care of it. If you feel her defenses crumbling, should she squeeze your cock and lick her lips, usher that bitch right out the fucking door and into your car. Times a wasting. +Never take her home on the first date. She may be a stalker and you'd have to do what you know you have to do if that's the case. No, drive to a secluded place; a park, the sea side, a dark, quiet street. Have the radio down low, some easy listening music on to have her thinking you're the sensitive type. Put her hand back on your cock and your arm over her shoulder. +Sissies may be air-headed bitches but once your arm is over her shoulder and her hand is in your lap, she'll instinctively know what you expect. +Listen up men, I DO NOT APPROVE NOR RECOMMEND RAPE AND OR VIOLENCE. NEVER. That is not what this is about so if you are inclined that way, I am sorry to disappoint you. REAL MEN HAVE NO NEED NOR THE RIGHT TO FORCE THEMSELVES ON ANYONE, EVER. +Okay, back to the basics. With your arm over her shoulder you should play with the hair on the back of her head. If she hasn't unzipped your fly, do it for her. She may be shy or she may be acting shy. Either way it's bullshit and not to be condoned. +One of you needs to free that hard cock now. The arm over her shoulder becomes your hand on the back of her head. Guide her, nudge her into becoming what nature intended her to be. A cock sucker. Remind her that your hard-on is her fault and she should correct the situation. Tell her she'll love it. At this point, say anything that will get your cock into her mouth. Neither of you has to believe the bullshit that's gonna pour out of you and onto her. A hard cock has no conscience. Say anything that's needed to get that blow job men. +At this point you may know how it's going to go. An experienced sissy will show off her skills. It's only for you to sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. +A novice sissy will need your guidance. Warn her not to let her teeth scrape your cock. Teach her how to please a cock. Tell her how nice her lips feel around it, how exciting it is to have her licking your pre-cum. Verbal encouragement will excite the bitch and spur her on to greater efforts. And don't forget to tell her not to neglect your balls. +Don't allow her to use her hand to jack you off. Fuck that shit man. Mouth only baby. Make her work for her reward. You ain't giving it away. She's got to earn that cum. +Once she is in to it, shove that cock down her throat and skull fuck the cunt. Use her. That's what she's there for. Take what is yours. Let her gag on that fat motherfucker. School is in session bitch. Whose your daddy cock sucker? Whose your fucking daddy? +Okay, so now you've fed the bitch your load. You got yours. Fuck her needs. Be nice but be adamant. You have man things to do. Ask where you can drop her off and tell her to give you her number and promise to call, just not say when. +If she likes you, make her wait a week or so. If she's merely a whore, a slut, you not calling her won't mean squat. She's been giving blow jobs every day to her regulars anyway. It's probably better if you move on. +Your best bet for choosing a sissy is to find a virgin, one who is new to the realization of her true destiny. It may take time to break her in, to take her virgin mouth and fuck that tight ass but it will be worth the wait. Be the first to part those pretty lips and give her that first taste of cock. She'll never forget you and will always be grateful for you showing her the proper place for those like her. On her fucking knees with her face buried in a real man's crotch. +If you have selected the slut sissy against your better judgement, you have some work ahead of you. This can go a couple ways. You can pimp her out and make a few bucks then toss her aside after you've paid off that new car or, you can break her of her whorish ways. Personally, I'd opt for paying off the car and then dumping the whore. A nice touch is to have her drop the final payment in the mailbox for you on her way down the road. +To break the bitch, one needs an iron will to provide a strong hand and firm guidance. It's a strong hand that breaks her of the habit of sucking random cocks. The pleasant sting of your belt on her fat ass will have her begging you to forgive her and let her show you she can be your good girl. An experienced sissy will already have enjoyed the feel of leather on her fat ass. She knows it's for her own good and will be grateful that you have used your valuable time to impart some well-deserved discipline on her. +Now you've selected and seduced your sissy. It's time to lay the ground rules. If she's a half stepper, by that I mean if she goes about her daily routine like work and errands dressed less feminine than you think she should, instruct her that you expect her to be dressed as a sissy should be dressed all the time, everywhere she goes. +I don't like my sissies cross dressing. I like them to be sexy, dressing for sex, oozing with the promise of loving blow jobs and a tight fat ass in which to empty my balls. But I want everyone to know that my sissy is a dude, a member of the male species but not a man. It keeps them humble. +Real men look down on sissies simply because they are sissies. Unless you happen to be a dominant gay, the sissy is not going to be your wife. She's there to do what you want her to do, plain and simple. Clean your home, wash your car, prepare your meals, run your errands, wash and iron your clothes, and empty your balls. +This is where rules come in. Ground rules are up to the real men. I'm not going to tell you how to live but I demand punctuality and accountability from my sissy. Let her know the rules are important to you and as such, they are important to her. They are absolute and written in granite. A broken rule must be punished. +Punishment has to happen as soon as that rule has been broken too. Otherwise, your sissy may not understand why she's having her bottom spanked. Don't be bashful. Talk to her. Tell what she's done to displease you and have her explain how she intends to improve her behavior. +Most sissies crave punishment. They know they are the bottom rung of male society and have a primal need to be servile. They long to be led and guided by a strong-willed, take no shit man. A real man. They will work hard to please you, to make you proud of them. That is how it should be. A lazy sissy is no good for you or herself. Put the bitch to work and see that she performs well. +At first, when the relationship is blossoming, find fault in everything she does for you. Criticize, complain, and best of all, compare her to your last sissy. This works in two ways. First, if she's worth your time she will work harder to please you. Second, she'll know you aren't afraid to discard an under-performing sissy and will be motivated to try harder to please you. It's a win-win, man. +Always keep her off-balance. It fucks with her head and can be fun for the real man. It also serves to maintain a healthy understanding of the relationship between the real man and his sissy. She must never forget who the boss is and what he'll do should she forget. +Have her always in a state of undress when in the home or parties at other people's houses. Panties, camisoles and the like are appropriate. Company be damned. Visitors are no excuse for her to hide what she is. If she's too proud to appear en fem for your friends, it is your fault for not eliminating that haughty pride from her. Realization and actualization. She is only there to please you. She has no other needs. Break the bitch of free will. +Make-up is a must. Tell her you want to see her lips as a welcoming place to park your cock and for her to keep them looking inviting. Let her know that you have friends that beg you for her services. Always tell her that you are tempted to loan her to the man she most despises. It will keep her thankful whenever he's been around and gone and you haven't instructed her to tend to his cock. +Some sissies think they're required to talk. If you have one of those, it is most unfortunate. Hushing her may work as might the sting of your belt on her fat ass. Should those efforts fail, ball gags are most convincing. I suggest one larger than she can accommodate as it will be extremely uncomfortable. Chastise her for drooling all over and around it and tell her it's for her own good. Sissies should be seen, felt, and used, but not heard. She must have an excellent reason for breaking that vow of silence to which you have committed her. Seriously men, what the fuck does she have to say that you really want to hear? Am I right? You're damned skippy I'm right. Really, who wants to hear some blathering bitch complain about her lousy day. You got a ball game on TV. Shut her the fuck up. +Grooming is important. Your bitch should always be clean and her appearance appealing. Her hair is always to be brushed to a high sheen and styled as feminine or androgynous as you, her real man instructs. Nails are to be polished at all times and her lingerie to be clean and free of wear and tear, and stains. Old cum stains are a turn-off for me and any company you may have won't want to see the evidence of your sissy's inability to keep her shit clean. Hose with runs are to be disposed of immediately or used as restraints; your call. +Of course, this goes without saying but I'll say it anyway; body hair in forbidden. There is absolutely no reason for her to shun the daily razor, or Nair, or any other hair removal product you have permitted her to use. I like to have my sissy shave. It's more work for her to address and it serves to keep her thinking about pleasing me. Body hair removal is to be a daily ritual and you, her real man, should do periodic and random inspections. +Failing that inspection is not an option for your sissy. Make that clear to her. +I seldom allow my sissy to sit on the furniture and never ever when I have company. If she's not fetching me a drink or snack, she knows her place is on the floor at my feet, even as I call my dog up on the couch beside me. The sissy must know her place. +For those who may ask, I do let her sit at the table when eating. The dog, not so much. This gives my sissy a feeling of superiority... over the dog anyway. I could, but haven't told her any different. It makes me feel good to make her feel good about herself once in a while. She has so little to look forward to other than my cock. So why not throw the bitch a bone on occasion? +Weight consciousness is a matter I take seriously. Control your sissy's diet and eating habits. I know she's there for your pleasure but you have to take pride in ownership and that comes with responsibilities. Like waxing your vehicle or changing the oil, maintaining your bitch is almost as important. Let her know when she's consuming too much meat and bread and not enough salad. Pilates and planking will work her core and stimulate mental awareness. Compliment her on the firmness of her fat ass, the tightness of her tummy, her slender legs. Use your belt to ward off any undesirable chubbiness. Fat is easier to keep off than it is to get off. +Keep in mind men, a fat sissy is a lazy sissy. How can she take care of your needs when she won't look after herself? Nip that shit in the bud. +Being redundant here, I look at it this way, ""If she isn't taking care of herself, she won't be tending to your requirements either."" If that's the case, it's entirely the fault of the real man becoming lackadaisical in his responsibilities to his sissy. Remember men, you have certain responsibilities too. The commitment to keep her on the straight and narrow falls to you. Make an honest bitch out of your sissy. +I typically decline my sissy alcohol. She can be a whiney bitch in general and booze only fuels the fires that lay beneath her personae, deep within her subconscious. But as her daddy it is up to you to determine what she intakes anyway. But alcohol and weed will only provoke her to speak and we've already covered that. +I said this earlier but I do not advocate violence. I do, however, believe in corporal punishment as a useful antidote to any and all of her misdeeds, real or imagined. I apply it to keep the bitch in her place or to humiliate her in front of others. An over-the-knee spanking when you have company is an effective instrument. It shows her that you care enough about her attitude and behavior to correct her whenever a course correction is required. +I have spanked my sissy in front of her visiting family; her mother, father and sister much to my sissy's shame and arousal. Holding her on my lap as I have her explain to her family why she made me punish her, I can feel her tiny dick become erect even before my hand falls on her panty covered bottom. Once she's received her spanking, she rushes off to attend to her little boner. Hurrying to the bathroom, my sissy will quickly masturbate herself to orgasm and flush her tissue paper pussy down the commode where it belongs. +When she does return, she is most attentive and loving. A daddy must show her that he is prepared to demonstrate his concern for his sissy's behavior regardless of when, where, and who may see. My sissy is grateful for my unfailing attention to her details. +Make-up sex with your woman is okay but nothing compares to the slow, sweet loving blow job you'll get from a freshly punished sissy. Lie back and accept your reward for a job well done. +My sissy is trained to accept that I enjoy pussy and that I have a couple women I see. I have no problem bringing them home once they understood and accepted that I have a live-in sissy that tends to my needs. My sissy welcomes my women and tries desperately to be a part of the sisterhood, knowing I will tolerate zero jealousy. +The women I see will also know that I enjoy their company for more than just sex as my sissy empties my balls as often as required. The women appreciate me not constantly bothering them for sex and in time will enjoy using my sissy for their needs as well. +I can't tell you the many grateful smiles I've received after one of my girlfriends has taken my sissy down the hall to the bedroom to have her pussy licked clean of the spunk I've deposited. And my sissy knows that suctioning my sperm from my women will be the closest she gets to getting pussy herself. And the extra orgasms my sissy provides my ladies are welcomed as well. Again fellas, it's a win-win. +In time, the sissy may develop a kindred spirit with one of my lady friends and trade make-up ideas, clothing styles, and crap like that. Who gives a damn what they do together? My sissy knows better than to try to insert his pee-pee in her. +If you've done your job my brother, you have a well-trained sissy; one who is programmed to know when she's gone too far, pushed the wrong buttons, or just aggravated you. She'll be eager to please you in ways that you can only imagine. +Now I understand if some of you real men are over whelmed by reading all this. I've only put down into written words that which generally comes natural to you real men while in pursuit of your next sissy. +Know this: owning a sissy can be a rewarding experience for the both of you. Like all relationships, a real man and sissy relationship requires compromise, give and take. You, the real man, take what you want and give your sissy cock. That's it. That's all there is to it. The harder you are on your sissy the more appreciated she feels and the more she'll feel rewarded. At least notice her sometimes. I mean when she isn't giving up that mouth or ass. That tiny bit of acknowledgement goes a long way. +In closing, I know there are many real men and sissies who read my works. I would very much like your feedback either in commenting or email. I will respond to all respectful emails whether you agree or not, an exchange of ideas would be fun." +98,A Category That Is,Sammael Bard,How To,2014-06-11,2015-04-10,2022-01-04 08:24:52,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-category-that-is-loving-wives,"1. An author's personal view on a very controversial category. 2. Some more on the Stories, Readers, Votes and Comments.","['Advice', ""Bard'S 2 Cents"", 'Cheating', 'Cuckolds', 'How-To', 'Loving Wives', 'Opinions']",4.62,"**Author's Note:** This is the sole thinking, views and muddling of The Soulful Bard on a category in Literotica known as 'Loving Wives'. +*~*~*~*~* +Seeing all those heavy-weight authors on Lit throwing their weight around with their criticisms and reviews, I decided to throw one of my own ideas into this chaotic mix. This review is about the most controversial category on Lit, better known as 'Loving Wives'- a topic that has successfully divided every Lit user on their personal opinions. +Okay, let's get started, people. Lock and Load! +So, what exactly is Loving Wives? Lit defines it as ""Extra-marital fun, swinging, sharing and more."" +Before I even heard of this website, I used to pump my imaginations from another website of the Penthouse Magazines where fantasies of Authors wanting to see their wives getting the shit fucked out of their brains by someone else are a predominant event. So it wasn't exactly a category that was new to me. +The first ever LW story that I remember reading was ' **Katie's Massage** ' by **bilbo181**. I absolutely loved the build-up and seduction, which I absolutely adore, and of course the fucking that ensues. Though the sex pales a little in comparison to the seduction, it was a great read nonetheless. I was left with raging hard-on that I was forced to relieve twice (no shit) during the story. +I gleefully searched the whole category in search of some more stories like the ones I had read but found something that was totally different to what I had expected. +The first few stories I had read about girlfriends and wives cheating behind the backs of their respective boyfriends and husbands made me really anxious as the ""What if I were him?"" scenarios circled relentlessly through my head. My girlfriend had no clue as to why I had started acting funny around her and looked at her with suspicious eyes. +Thankfully, my angel fucked some sense into me one night after I had tentatively told her what has been bothering me all this time. +So, y'all might be thinking right now - Now what? She cheated on you despite the assurance? +No, of course not! I just drifted away for a while. Sorry! +According to my rough estimates, 60% of stories in this category deal with the revenge kind, 25% deal with the Hubby-wants-to-watch-you-fuck category while a rare 10% deal about reconciliation to save a marriage. +If you do the math, 5% is still missing, which I've left intentionally, to include any thing other than the ones I've mentioned above. +I bet you must've read this a hundred times - +""He entered the house quietly, rubbing his hands in anticipation of the sex he'd have with his wife. The house was strangely empty and quiet except for a few soft voices drifting in from the bedroom. He climbed the stairs quietly, wondering what the hell was going on, and his world came apart when he saw the next scene..."" +This has been practically done to death. There are a total of five major scenarios possible from now on: + **1.** If it's the revenge kind, it would usually follow what measures he took to catch them red handed and file a divorce on the grounds of ""Adultery"", while the wife is either blissfully unaware or begging her balls out to persuade him. To add a twist, the author's likely to add a child or two, making it hard for our hero to give a divorce to his cheating, whoring wife so that his children aren't traumatized. + **2.** If it's one of those swinging types, it would usually follow what a raging hard-on the husband had and ended up ejaculating on the bedroom door itself. + **3.** If it's one of those reconciliation types, it'll still end up with the cheating wife/hubby realizing her/his mistake and groveling for forgiveness, but this time it's the path to a marriage counselor or even a psychologist. + **4.** If it's one of those I-Don't-care types, the offended spouse would leave right away and never take a look back, possibly to become richer and gloat it back on his now-divorced spouse's face. + **5.** I have no idea, right now, of any other major things that can happen, except for a slight few variations of the above mentioned three points. + **The Bard's Opinion:** +I've read quite a few of these stories, depicting some very indigenous and brilliant plotting and scheming to bring down the cheating wife/hubby and frankly speaking, I did enjoy a few of them. One of such stories is the "" **Fool Him Once** "" by **Longhorn_07** , where the author has taken a lot of pain in the planning and hatching elaborate schemes to bring down his wife and her lover. +Despite how much I've enjoyed the downfall of the cheating spouse, I still find revenge a very petty act. Some authors really mess it up when they try to write the proceedings in court and about police procedure but end up conjuring some very unrealistic circumstances. +Now, I know that you'll fire away straight towards the comments section and write down a single word: Wimp. Before you do that, I want to tell you what **I** would've done if I had the unfortunate luck to be in such a position. +I'm more of the fourth scenario type of person - I'll never give a shit about you from now on. I won't waste my precious time on how I would do this and that to catch you in this position and so on. If she has cheated on me, she has lost my respect and my love. I'll quietly pick up the shattered piece of my heart and invest it on someone else, who'll probably love me more than I do. +Everything in life doesn't have to cannonballs and bazookas. I've had a much disciplined upbringing throughout my life and was always taught to treat women with respect. It's just that...revenge isn't my style of sorting things out with someone. If it's your style, then fine, but **DO** respect other people's choices of what they decide to do when they face heart breaking situations like this one. +The second type, with the swinging and sharing ones, are relatively hotter and the sex is definitely steamier than all of the other LW stories combined. Though not a person to engage in such a lifestyle, I have absolutely no problem with people living in the swinger's lifestyle - Nada. +One story as I've mentioned earlier - **Katie's Massage** \- goes something along the same lines but one little difference is the husband hadn't really planned on getting his wife fucked by the masseur. Another one of those swinger style stories is "" **The Private Party** "" by **Snake138** , which is a contest winner. It involves seduction and a tiny bit of reluctance but the sex is absolutely goddamn hot. A few lines did make me laugh out loud such as ""His tongue speared onto her clit with the accuracy of a javelin"" but still, I gleefully added it to my favorites. +A problem I have with these types of stories is that I hate the indecision that the author puts into the protagonist's mind when he definitely wants to see his wife get fucked. Lines such as ""I was humiliated and angry, but I had a raging hard-on and I loved her even more"" are a big no-no from my side. It just doesn't fucking fit into someone's thinking, especially **my** thinking. Cut the crap and don't drag the story with such bullshit lines! +Also I have a bit of problem with the same stories where the hubby wants the wife to trample all over his dignity. It's one thing to want to see your wife getting fucked but it's a totally different matter for your wife to make you suck out some other man's cum from her recently fucked up pussy, all the while demeaning you. +Just not my type. +The third choice of reconciliation is quite interesting and always draws a lot of flak from the majority of the Lit crowd, if not done artfully. It even draws criticism even though if it has been done artfully, so there's no point of being able to avoid the barbed comments that are sure to follow. +Reconciliation is totally a psychological aspect of the story and not everyone can write that particular part without convincing the readers that two people can actually get back together after a very rough patch on their relationship. Being a person who takes an avid in Human Psychology and is studying to become one, I just can't swallow the bullshit some authors pelt out during the reconciliation sessions. +One story that did catch my eye in the LW category dealing with reconciliation is **Requital** , again by **Longhorn_07**. The dialogues in the beginning of this story are really good and get me hooked up real fast, especially the part where the protagonist gives out a verbal lash to ""Jimmy boy"" for making fun of poor people. The part where they go to a counselor and the talk that happened in between them also sounds very convincing to a normal person. All in all, it made a successful beeline to my favorites. +I find nothing wrong with people going to counselors for some advice to save their marriage that they think is worth saving. Again, they are the personal opinions of a few selected people and not for me to judge upon. +Alright then! On we surge to the last major type of LW story and my favorite kind - **I-DON'T-GIVE-A-SHIT-ABOUT-YOU KIND.** +I really like the philosophy of ""The best kind of revenge is to live better"". +These types of stories sound more convincing and mature to me. It is a thing that I'm **more likely to do in such situations.** The spouse simply walks away from the destroyed marriage and finds solace in someone else's arm. The other one is left to mull on the terrible decisions he/she has made that led to this point of their lives. If he/she is smart enough, they'll realize their folly soon enough but it'll be too late by then. They'll live with regrets in their heart for the rest of their lives and that's the kind of thing I wish for such people. +It is the best revenge for anyone I can think for anyone - Regrets. +Regrets are something that will stay with you throughout your life, especially regrets about trampling a good relationship to the dirt for no concrete reasons. It's a thing that just doesn't wash away. The pain will dull itself over time but it will hurt for the rest of your life. You'll be left wondering about the 'What if' scenarios at night and crying yourself off to sleep. +I'm **NOT** talking about the stories where the wife/girlfriend/hubby/boyfriend doesn't love you at all but I hope that you get my drift. +One story that caught my eye was "" **Discovery** "" by **Jidoka**. It is a story about the journey of a man from the very rock bottom to the absolute top and in the process, discovering his inner self and become a better man. The story is thoughtful and just my type. Oh, there is revenge **but** it is a result of the direct consequence of his ex-wife's own actions. The protagonist is just a bystander in the events that unfold. +So, these are the four major categories I had mentioned earlier and these are my thoughts. +A course of action can only be decided if you know what circumstances led to the cheating and all those stuff. If there's none of your fault, then you'll do just fine. You can move on, knowing that it wasn't you and you got out of this thing before wasting any more time with him/her. + **BUT** if a part of the fault lies with you, **REMEMBER - NO MATTER how many more relationships** you jump into after that, it'll always end up in a **failure** because you just never seem to realize your fault. +The major problem with humans is that they never like to take the blame for anything on their own head. It's just the way we are programmed and I'm not exempt from this but I have learnt to find my own mistakes and make myself a better person. If I can do it, then there's a 100% possibility that **you can do it** too. +Also, **REFRAIN** yourself from jumping into decisions that you will regret. You know that he/she had sex with someone else but **stop** and ask yourself - What made him/her do it? Was he/she blackmailed? Was he/she raped? +If the answer to any of the above questions is an unfortunate ""yes"", then stop and take a deep breath. Would you like your friends to abandon you if you were in her place, in such a dire situation? I will absolutely hate it and I think you would too. +These advices not only work for relationships but also in our lives. Follow them, reprimand yourself gently when you forget these things and try to instill them into yourselves. I'm sure it will help you in your life, be it in career or in relationships. It has helped me and I hope it helps you too. +Also, **DO NOT** let these stories about cheating spouses get to your brains. They are **fictional** and written by **amateur** authors, like myself, and are not necessarily the absolute truths of life. Don't let these ideas sully your relationship like me. +I was lucky enough to have an angel for a girlfriend, who understood the reasons of my stupid anxieties. If she had slapped and kicked me out, then it would've been my fault alone and I would be the one living with regrets right now. +You definitely don't want to push your luck, do you? +*~*~*~*~* + +" +99,Celebrating Mother's Day,PrincessErin,How To,2008-05-26,2008-05-26,2022-01-04 08:26:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/celebrating-mothers-day,Suggestions for celebrating Mother’s Day,[''],3.94,"I know that Mother's Day has already past, but this would be a useful article to reread prior to next year's Mother's Day. Mother's Day was actually created by a woman who was not married and was not a mother. She wanted a day to celebrate her mother and thus Mother's Day was created. Mothers give so much for their children it is important to recognize them at least once a year. The following suggestions are ways to celebrate the day and can be used by everyone, both children and adults. +Thoughtful Card +I'm sure the greeting card companies will be happy that I am giving them free advertisements. A greeting card is an excellent way to show your mother that you care. There are funny, happy, and sentimental cards. There are cards that sing, play music, and with the new technology that exists, you can even record your own voice in a greeting card. A card is a small way of showing your mother that she is the best. +What's even better than a greeting card purchased at a store is to make one yourself. This is restricted to those twelve and under. Since this is an adult website and those under eighteen will not read this article, share this idea with your younger siblings or children. A hand made card is worth its weight in gold, and a little more. The idea that a child spent time on a handmade card, with the spelling mistakes and the pictures colored out of the lines is touching and cute. I'm sure every elementary teacher blocks out time on the Friday before Mother's Day to do an arts and crafts activity with the goal of making a Mother's Day card. +Useful Gift +Gift giving has two purposes. The first purpose is to allow the giver to give their mother something that they would not purchase for themselves. It allows them to buy something that is thoughtful and useful and show their mom that they care. The second purpose is for the receiver of the gift to obtain something that they need. +There are a lot of ideas for gifts and they could be both material items and thoughtful things. Kitchen items, clothing, haircuts, and salon treatments are some ideas. Another idea, which is great for young children, is to give away hugs, kisses, and time spent with your mom. These can be made up as coupons, but any other idea works as well. +Spend Time with your Mother +This sounds like a common sense suggestion, but not everyone is able to spend time with his or her mother. If your mother lives close by spend the day with her. Take her shopping, out for lunch, or to a museum. She gets to choose what she wants to do; it's her day. Mothers aren't picky on what they do on Mother's day. As long as it involves time with their children, they are happy. If you are a student, or don't have a lot of money, remember that a fancy restaurant isn't necessary. Eating at the golden arches can be just as thoughtful and a good bonding experience. +If your mother is no longer alive spend time with a female relative that lives in your area. Maybe you can spend time with your grandmother or great grandmother. You might spend time with a cousin or aunt who is a mother whose children aren't able to be with them. +Those that are not Mothers +Another idea is to spend time with an important woman who is not a mother. Mother's day is to celebrate mothers. However, not all women have that opportunity. If you are one of those women or know someone who is, spend time with them, making sure they know they are valuable members of society. This is the perfect idea if your mother is no longer alive or lives in a different city. Those women who have not been lucky enough to enjoy the joys of motherhood find this day to be stressful. Acknowledging their importance in the life of a child allows them to understand that although they do not have the title ""mother"", they are still members of the community who in a small way raise a child. +Mother's Day is an important celebration for both adults and children. Everyone has a mother and spending one day out of the year acknowledging the sacrifices they made for their children is just a small way we can make the world a better place." +100,Character Description Dos and Donts,Cruel2BKind,How To,2011-09-22,2011-09-22,2022-01-04 08:26:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/character-description-dos-and-donts,How to Avoid the mugshot description.,"['Advice', 'Character Development', 'Description', 'How To']",4.83,"FBI'S MOST WANTED; A LIST OF DESCRIPTION DOS AND DONTS +Half of the stories you see on this website suffer from a simple, and easily- reversible flaw. Show, not tell. Specifically, characters. The paragraph below is an example of a writing style that is unimaginative, cheap, lazy, and unappealing to read. +... +""Hi, my name is Brenda. I've been going to Fuckmesilly University for three years now. I'm 5'2"", blonde, and I weigh 100 pounds. I have DD breasts, and bright blue eyes. I like to shave my pussy, but sometimes only in a landing strip. I find it hard to buy bra's sometimes, so I often go without."" +... +There are many MANY things wrong with the above paragraph, but the first and foremost is SHOW not TELL. This is the most basic rule that you learn in writing. The first time I heard about show not tell, I was in fifth grade. If a visiting author of CHILDREN'S books knows it, then we, as adults, should also know. +Now, granted; it is a lot harder to show your main character's desirable traits if you're writing from first person point of view. If you often have trouble describing what you're character looks like from 1st person, try writing in third. +Now, there are several very simple techniques that can be used to give the reader an idea of main characters, but there is also a very simple rule. Let's call it the golden rule of Show, not Tell. +GOLDEN RULE: Don't tell all at once. +If you give away you're character in little snippets and bits, it's far easier for the reader to digest. Maybe you think I'm going way too deep for a simple wank story. If you write simple wank stories, then the 'most wanted list' approach is natural. But if you're struggling to make a long erotic story, or a story with a plot, then this rule will help immensely. +Here is a second example, different character. +... +I woke up with a start. Rachel's alarm clock was going off. I groaned and put my face back into the pillow. I fuckin HATE mondays, and my roommate has a class at eight, so I can't help but get up at the crack of dawn with her. +I eventually gave up at trying to sleep again, so I minced down the bunk bed ladder, it always gets really cold in winter. Rachel always hogs the mirror and sink, so I have learned the ancient art of braiding my hair without one. Rachel says that my hair looks better down, but I'm Irish, so I have the reddest curliest goddamn hair the world has ever seen. I have to braid it so I don't go crazy, or get the teeth of my comb lost in the ensuing tangle. +I pulled the blinds closed and quickly pulled off my pajamas and got dressed. Me and Rachel both pull on sweaters, because of the weather, and she gives my chest a longing look. +'Beth, I wish I had boobs like yours... I mean, you can't even SEE mine when I'm wearing all of this shit!' +\--- +This style of writing does take longer, another reason why the writers of quick jerk-off stories don't like to employ it. It took an extra two paragraphs, but we learned so many things, and without the awkward 'Most Wanted List' intro. We learned her name, hair color, that she goes to college, that it's winter, and even a bit of her personality. All and all, the passage reads easier, and it feels more natural. +TECHNIQUES; HOW TO BREAK THE VICIOUS CYCLE +I use several techniques to my advantage in my stories, they are all simple, and if you don't use them gratuitously often, they pay off and make the story seem more natural. +THE COMPLAINT: Men and women (women to a greater degree, but don't write off gay men...) always have complaints about their body issues. Odds are, since this is an erotica website, your main character will be incredibly attractive, but there are always little complaints that you can use to reveal more of your character's physical appearance. +A few examples +\--- +Ugh, I hate the summer. I literally CANNOT tan. I'm a redhead y'know, so all the sun ever does is make my freckles breed... +I managed to make it to forty, but my hairline is finally starting to suffer. I guess I'm lucky... but I still hate seeing it every morning. Heidi is a doll, and she always says it makes me look refined... +\--- +And so on and so forth. The complaint is a good strategy, but can only be used sparingly. If you use it too much, your main character could be everything from a little bitchy to completely insufferable. +GROOMING: I don't use this one too often, but it's almost like another version of the Complaint. It just shows a part of the main character's routine that emphasizes one of their traits. It could be anything from what hair products they use to where they have to shop. +FAWNING: This does absolutely jack-shit if you're trying to describe your narrating character, but it helps to introduce the reader to side characters. It's basically when you're main character is ogling another. Like so. +\--- +I just couldn't believe it... James was looking better then ever today... He was in his jogging shorts, and his legs were shiny from sweat, because he had been running. His blond hair always clumps into these spikes when he runs... He's so tall, I would barely reach his chest. Those amazing green eyes looked my way, and I nearly ran into a wall! +Man, do I just love my teacher's legs. I know she's older, but DAMN! She always wears these sheer stockings, and one time, I caught a glimpse of her thighs, and the lace near the top. She makes me afraid to stand up! +\--- +So, useful. Also, this technique finds a niche when you're doing multiple perspective stories. +THE STRANGER: Okay, bear with me, because this one takes a little explaining. This technique cannot be used in all stories, and it mostly works in two situations. The first situation is one where the main character has undergone some deep traumatizing event, the second is when a character is acting completely different from how they normally would. +What happens next, is they see their reflection, and they feel like they're seeing a stranger. Both of the examples I'm going to show you are ones that are in my actual stories, and not just made up on the spot. +\--- +When I opened my eyes, I could see my reflection in the casket, a feminine blonde boy with hair that was too long and dark eyes that were swollen and red from crying. I hated that boy; I hated how weak he was. +""Come back you limp-dick pansy! Come back and fuck me!"" Was that her voice? That drunken and furious slur that snarled obscenities at the demon? +Master came forward and picked up the leash from where it had dangled during the Makeover. As we left the room (me on all fours) I glimpsed my face in the mirror, and I barely recognized myself. I was smooth and naked and slender, crawling like a woman in the dirty magazines my friend carried around. My body smooth and hairless, my eyebrows arched and smooth. My eyes were a little red from crying all the time, but my mouth was full and my cheekbones high and I looked... I looked pretty. I had never seen myself in this way before. Part of me hated that pretty face surrounded by a new stylish haircut. Part of me hated the sensation of my hairless thighs whispering together as I crawled. That part of me was broken and emasculated. +\--- +So, yes. The Stranger is a technique that can only be used in very specific situations, and I hope I did a good job of explaining it. I can't use it all the time, but when I do, it works very well. +THE MAKEOVER: A simpler, easier version of The Stranger, the Makeover is often used partway through the story. Maybe the woman decides that she is going to splurge, and go to a beauty spa. Maybe one of the man's gay friends takes him shopping to get a new wardrobe. Maybe she models a new dress. Maybe he decides that dammit, he's gonna lose some weight if it's the last thing he ever does! +The Makeover is one of the nice opportunities you will have to describe yourself, without sounding like a wanted list. Your main character is so amazed by him/herself that he/she will literally just describe themselves, amazed and flattered by what they see. +\--- +They say that you're not supposed to see the bride in the gown before the wedding... My mom took it a step further and didn't even show me the gown. She literally blindfolded me when they were tailoring it, and when her and my sister were helping me get it on. They finally took it off and I gaped at the mirror in shock (insert description here) +All straight men need a gay friend. It is a little known fact in life. I only had the confidence to start flirting with women after my friend Xandir started clothes-shopping with me... He picked clothes that I thought were ridiculous, but when I tried them on, they made me look thinner. He told me that girls love red, and he must have been right, because I get more numbers when I wear the red shirt. I call it my lucky shirt! +\--- +So, again, simpler version of the Stranger, and I hope it works! +THE FAMILY: It just proves that the best way to describe yourself is to describe others. Describing the main character's sister, and then pointing out small differences works. Or maybe saying that the main character inherited (insert sexy trait here) from his dad. It's an easy way to squeeze in some characteristics, provided the family is a part of your story. +\--- +My father is lovably insane. He looks at me and my brothers, with a huge smile on his face. He says that Ian got his eyes, Ben got his voice, Joseph got his looks, then he looks at me, rubs his balding head ruefully and claims that I stole his hair. It's sort of true. He's balding, and I'm the only son that turned out blond... +I guess it's only fair that people compare me to my sister. She's so beautiful, that to compare me to her is the highest compliment that people can give. We both got the green eyes, the curly hair and creamy skin, but what she got that I didn't was the talent. I got the weight. +\--- +COMPLIMENTS: Exactly what it sounds. Have side characters compliment the main ones. A five year old could do it. +\--- +""Ohh, I wish I had skin like yours! The day I break free of puberty, Strydex stock will plummet!"" +""I love your eyes, they remind me of the ocean."" +\--- +Alright, that's enough with techniques... I hope that this has been helpful and informative. This is my first How To, so please tell me if it was at all helpful. Also, give me a heads up if I'm absolutely full of shit. The people reading this need to know! +\--Cruel" +101,A Checklist for a Good Editor,Selena_Kitt,How To,2008-12-14,2008-12-14,2022-01-04 08:24:53,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-checklist-for-a-good-editor,Advice on proper editing.,"['Editing', 'Writing']",4.73,"As an editor, establishing a good editing relationship with the author is of primary concern. Without trust between you, editing is going to be a disaster. The author needs to know you're interested only in making their work shine, not changing their voice, style or story. When an author knows this, they will be much more likely to accept suggestions and changes. So work hard at making your author(s) understand this and give them plenty of reason to trust you with their ""babies."" +1\. Grammar, spelling and punctuation are paramount. If you're not sure, check it out. So if you have problems with lay and lie, its and it's, affect and effect, make sure you look it up. There are plenty of online dictionaries and places to check punctuation and spelling. Bookmark your favorites and keep them handy while you're editing. And when you change something, remember to educate your author as to why you're making the change. If you make an author aware of the difference between you're and your, they will be less likely to make the mistake again, and you (or another fellow editor) will have less to correct in their work in the future. +2\. Watch for awkward phrases and unclear ideas. If it doesn't make sense to you, it's not going to make sense to the reader. Have the author clarify or rephrase. +3\. ""God"" does not have to be capitalized if it does not refer to the actual deity. So ""Oh my god that feels good!"" would be acceptable. However, it would be, ""I prayed to God that he would get better."" +4\. Purge the words ""just"" and ""that"" as much as possible. They are often unneeded. For example, in the previous sentence, the word ""that"" is unnecessary. It should read, ""I prayed to God he would get better."" However, the ""that"" in the former sentence, ""Oh my god that feels good!"" is necessary. Smoothness/readability is the most important guide here. +5\. Here's a short list of words you should probably purge as much as possible from most works: a bit, about, a little, actually, almost, already, appears, approximately, basically, close to, even, exactly, fairly, finally, just, kind of, mostly, nearly, now, pretty, quite, rather, really, seemed, seems, simply, slightly, somehow, somewhat, sort of, suddenly, truly, utterly, very +6\. Minimize the use of ""And"" and ""But"" to start sentences, unless it has a dramatic use in the scene. +7\. A scene break should not occur if the action is still contained within the same time frame and location -- unless it's being used to indicate a point-of- view switch. +8\. Highlight repeated words and have your authors choose alternates if you find them often repeating the same word throughout the mss. Also, avoid repeating words within sentences, paragraphs, or even succeeding paragraphs. Please be consistent in your highlighting, however, and explain your system clearly to your authors. (For example, one of our editors uses green highlights for repetitions and redundancies, yellow highlights for important changes, blue highlights for drawing attention to something that should be changed, etc.) +9\. Correct passive voice, especially past progressive voice, as much as possible. ""She was sleeping peacefully"" should be ""She slept peacefully"". Active voice gives a reader a more immediate sense of what's happening. This isn't a hard and fast rule, but a general one, and I admit, a trendy one in the current market. Passive voice can be effective. Use your best judgment. +10\. Measurements and numbers should be spelled out—pounds for lbs, ounces for oz, two for 2, etc. The exceptions to this are years: 1970 is better than nineteen seventy, and time indicators should be a.m. and p.m. (not capitalized) with a space between the time and the indicator: 2:00 p.m. This should, however, be a last resort. Try to rephrase to make it ""two in the afternoon"" or something like that. +11\. Stephen King said the road to hell is paved with adverbs. Eliminate those --ly words as much as possible: beautifully, sexily, whinily. Ugh. Verbs and actions are always better to convey meaning. Adverbs are an emphasis technique and can easily be abused. A few adverbs here and there are fine, but if your author is an adverbaholic, it's time for a little AA -- Adverbs Anonymous. Highlight all the adverbs in the mss to give your author an indication of how many they're using and ask them to rephrase. +12\. ""Show don't tell"" has become the mantra for fiction writers everywhere, and it's generally a good rule, but like most rules, it can be broken by a good writer. For the most part, though, showing is better than telling. It moves the story along, gives the reader a sense of the characters, and also allows them the feeling of being ""in"" the story. If you find an author doing too much ""telling,"" ask them to rewrite to describe the action of the characters, use dialogue, etc. But remember, telling is sometimes appropriate, especially in instances where time is of the essence. +13\. Dialogue should be punctuated like this, ""I don't have it,"" she said. Double quotes, with a comma before the last quote if a speaker tag is used. A period is used only if an action tag is used instead. ""I don't have it."" She hid her hands behind her back, averting her eyes. In fact, using the generic, indescriptive verb ""said"" should be minimized. Action tags are usually preferred over speaker tags, and adverbs should be avoided as much as possible in speaker tags, i.e. ""she said angrily."" +14\. Avoid repetition of punctuation, even if it's being used for dramatic effect. So, ""Oh my god!!!!!!!"" should be just ""Oh my god!"" and ""What was she thinking!?!?"" should be ""What was she thinking?"" Also avoid all-caps, bold or underline. Use italics for thoughts or emphasis. And if you use ellipses (which should be used sparingly) there should be no spaces before or after. So, ""Please...don't!"" would be correct. +15\. The em dash has mostly replaced the colon and semi-colon in modern fiction—seen here. Like ellipses, dashes have no space on either side if they are inside a sentence. Also, em dashes are used for interruptions of speech or thought, not ellipses (which are only used for dramatic pauses and unfinished thoughts). +16\. As an editor, keep an eye out for everything that doesn't relate to the advancement of the plot. In most cases, suggest removing the extraneous sections, or at least, reworking them to enhance the story rather than distract from it. +17\. It's acceptable to have multiple points-of-view (POV) within a book or story, but eliminate all instances of switching POV's (head-hopping) within the same scene. It's too confusing to have characters going back and forth every other paragraph. Each scene should be from one character's point of view. +18\. Watch out for illogical/missing story flows, incomplete world building, inconsistency of facts and details, lack of character development, holes in character motives, forced endings, etc. +19\. Check accuracy of facts, libelous materials, plagiarism of published works (even if it's the author's own previous work), watch for anachronisms (i.e. pay telephone in WWII), and check the internal clock of the manuscript (chronological events and the time on which the novel is running). Also, especially in sex scenes, please make sure characters don't defy the laws of physics! +20\. Contractions shouldn't be avoided. In dialogue especially, they're preferred. Unless the style is purposely formal, the use of common contractions will make the prose flow more easily. +21\. If an author uses a word you don't know -- look it up. Make sure it's used correctly. But there's no need to change it. +22\. The word ""come,"" in erotic fiction, is used as a verb, as in, ""Oh, I'm coming!"" and the word ""cum"" should be used as a noun, as in, ""She swallowed his cum."" +23\. The word is all right, not alright. +The best course of action when editing is to suggest changes and allow the writer the leeway to make them or not. Aside from the grammar, spelling and punctuation, which should be set in stone (unless the author is using European spellings in a European-based story -- then it's just set in a different stone!) the author should have final say in what they will or will not change." +102,Chick Magnet,olderhormones,How To,2020-01-04,2020-01-04,2022-01-04 08:26:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/chick-magnet,How to attract girls.,"['Dogs', 'Guide', 'How To']",4.49,"© Copyright 2019. All rights reserved. +This is a work of fiction. All characters depicted are 18 years and over. +So you want to get girls. Then this is for you. I am going to tell you how to attract the right kind of girl. The right kind of girl is not one that is attracted by a flashy car, or expensive clothes, or money, or any of the other things usually associated with the guy that gets all the girls. Those guys attract the wrong kind of girl. One who is only interested about the things the guy has and not who he is. The right kind of girl is interested in finding the guy they can make a life with. +So how do you attract the right kind of girl? It is easier than you think. Get a dog. But not just any dog. It has to be one that is either cute, or beautiful, or has skills. And the dog should like people. That is really important because you will want the girl to pet the dog and hopefully the dog will cuddle up to them. +Some dog breeds do not have these attributes. But most breeds do have them. I am not going to list a bunch of breeds here, instead I am going to tell you a story about a dog that I had years ago that was the ultimate chick magnet. She could attract girls by the bunches, and sometimes even guys. But especially girls. +When I was 51 years old I lost my wife to an illness. She was only sick a short time but I was devastated. I dropped into a pretty deep depression and I had to get help to recover from it. One of the things my therapist suggested was to get a dog. My wife and I had dogs in the past but had somehow become without any pets just before her illness. I thought about it and decided that it was a good idea. +We had always adopted dogs from the animal shelter, but this time I wanted a sheltie, a shetland sheepdog. I grew up with collies living next door to me and they were my constant companions even though they were owned by my neighbors. Their names were Pat and Mike. When I was young I did not understand where the names came from but when I got older I realized they were from and old Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn movie title ""Pat and Mike"". I loved those collies, but eventually they passed on. +Collies and shelties are related breeds. In the nineteenth century people from the Shetland Islands took collies from Scotland and Ireland and cross breed them with smaller dogs to produce a dog that looked like a rough collie but was half the size. This was perfect for the Shetland Islands because the country there is rough and there is not a lot to eat. They raise sheep on the islands and that is why they wanted smaller collie-like dogs. Sheep herding is in the sheltie's blood line. +But they also are perfect for the common household. They are good with kids (if they are raised with them) and are one of the world's smartest breeds. If you expose them to strange places and people when they are young they will not be shy of them, which can happen if they are kept away from strange environments. +I finally located a breeder who had two litters available with puppies at a reasonable price. I did not want a show dog, I wanted a pet and this breeder specialized in providing shelties that would be family dogs. I wanted a female, not because I was going to raise puppies, but because I have had good luck with female dogs prior to this. +The litter I chose from was very large for a sheltie, a total of 12 puppies, two females and ten males. A sheltie usually only has 6-8 puppies in a litter. But I was in luck and fell in love with one of the females. She was only a week old at the time but she was beautifully marked, and just fit in the palm of my hand. The breeder said I could pick her up after she was six weeks old. She would be weened by then and eating regular dry dog food. +So I had to wait five more weeks. I was very excited and this picked up my mood immensely. I actually made another visit to the breeder prior to picking my dog up just so I could play with her. I told the breeder that I had chosen a name for her, Dora. The breeder really liked that name and used a paper tag to place the name on her. She was really cute and playful. She was also a real lover. But I had to wait until she was ready. +When the six weeks were up I went back to the breeder and picked up Dora. She sat beside me all the way home. I had so much fun playing with her when we got home. She was so little she had trouble walking in tall grass. She slept in bed with me so I would know when she needed to go out at night to do her business. She was my constant companion and I took her everywhere I could get her into, which actually turned out to quite a few places. She was always with me when I was not working. +A few weeks after I picked up Dora my mother had a small stroke and was put into a nursing home to recover. She lived about a hundred miles from me so it was a pretty long drive to visit her. The first weekend she was in the nursing home I went to visit her and I took Dora with me. Dora was an unbelievably big hit at the nursing home. Everyone wanted to hold her and pet her. The staff was especially excited about having her visit. +Within about a month or so my mother was moved to an assisted living center near where she would live. So I continued to visit her about every other weekend. The staff at the assisted living center just fell in love with Dora as well as all the people living there. Mom's status at the center went way up after my first visit, that was how popular Dora was. +I began to think about Dora and how much fun she was having at the center. It struck me that she would make a great therapy dog. She loved people and I had been doing some basic obedience work with her. The problem was that I knew nothing about how to turn her into a therapy dog. +So what is a therapy dog? And what's the difference between a therapy dog and a service dog. A service dog is one trained from a very young age to be a helper and companion to a disabled person. They have very intensive training for different disabilities. A service dog for the blind has different training than a dog for a wheelchair bound person. A therapy dog is very different. Its only task is to be petted by people and have some obedience training. That's it. And there is one other difference. Usually the state certifies a service dog, but not therapy dogs. This not the case for all states, just most states. +Of course, I learned all this by doing some research before I contacted a pet therapy organization. Pet therapy organizations do their own certifying of their member dogs. There are just a few rules but they are usually laid down by the insurance company that insures the organization. One of the rules that most organizations have is that the dog must be at least one year old and the owner has to have had them in their possession for one year. At the time Dora was only a few months old so I would have wait until she was old enough. +In the meantime I kept visiting my mom and taking Dora wherever I could. She really liked people and looked forward to wherever we went. +During this time I began noticing the people who were attracted to Dora. If the person liked dogs they invariably smiled when they saw her. This was especially true of women and girls, not so much for men. About half of those who smiled came out and asked about the dog. The most common comment was ""It is a little Lassie!"" which I would correct them by explaining she was a sheltie, not a collie. That usually opened them up to a conversation while they petted Dora with my permission. Dora got so used to this that she was sometimes disappointed when she did not get petted. So if they did not ask to pet the dog I asked them if they wanted to pet her. +All this made me realize that Dora was the perfect chick magnet for women and girls of all ages. She was a very beautiful dog and that was part of what made her attractive to people. Then I began to notice the type of women that were attracted to Dora. They saw me as a kind and loving person because Dora was also kind and loving. I began to think about it and realized that there was a lot of truth to that attitude. A dog is almost always a reflection of its owner. They can not help it because they always take on the personality of the owner. An aggressive owner has an aggressive dog, a loving owner has a loving dog. It's that simple. +After Dora was about six months old my company had a picnic one afternoon so I took Dora to work with me that day. I never knew a dog could be so popular. She was the hit of the picnic. She probably had seventy people pet her that day and twice that many who just smiled at her. And of course, the vast majority were women. +It was becoming more and more obvious that Dora was a true chick magnet. She attracted people just walking down the street. And the more people she saw, the friendlier she got. It was just amazing. +When Dora was a year old I got her enrolled in a qualification class for one of our local pet therapy organizations. The class is designed to familiarize you with the organization and see how your dog performs around other dogs and people. This organization specialized in serving the elderly community so they brought wheelchairs, walkers, canes, and crutches in during the class to see how the dogs reacted to them. There were about twenty dogs and their owners in the class so I could see where it might be stressful for some of the dogs, but not Dora. She seemed to thrive in that kind of environment. She made sure she met everyone in the class as well as all the evaluators. +The next day I got a call from the organization that Dora and I had been accepted into the organization. She had passed with flying colors they said. Obviously they thought she was as good as I thought she was. Little did I know just how good she was. +We were assigned to a nursing home near where I lived where we would be further evaluated and trained by a person from the therapy organization. This was to ensure that I knew what I was doing, the dog was expected to already know what to do. I introduced Dora to our trainer and the trainer fell in love with Dora immediately. Then we went around to most of the patient rooms to visit. Dora knew what to do almost instinctively. If they were in the bed Dora would place her front paws on the bed so the patient could pet her. If the bed was too high I would ask if they wanted her in the bed with them and if they did, I had Dora jump up into the bed. +To say Dora was a big hit would not do justice to her visit. I have never seen people brighten up more when Dora came into their room. She brought more joy to them than many had experienced in a long time. The trainer thought Dora and I made the perfect pair since we both seemed to enjoy the visit. She was sure Dora and I were going to be a great team. +We had two more training sessions and then we were released on our own. We started visiting an assisted living center about a year later as well as the nursing home. A year after that we started doing special events for the therapy organization. I will not tell you about all of the events, but I do want to mention one where Dora and I always had a good time. +The local university always invited our organization to an event that was held twice a year just before finals. The idea was that we could take finals off the mind of the students by bringing some dogs to visit in the student union for a few hours. We usually had about 10-12 dogs there and the number of students we saw was amazing. Typically Dora saw between 150-200 students during the four hour period. I want to stress that this was very atypical. Most dog are stressed out after about two hours with that many students around. Dora never tired, never stressed out, and was just as excited at the end as she was at the start. +The students usually sort of came in shifts. We would have a slow thirty minutes and then a crowded thirty minutes would immediately follow. It was like that for the entire four hours. During the slow time if there was no one visiting her she would get up and go over to a group where there were people and mix in with the crowd. She was seeking out attention. +Dora was a fantastic dog. A loyal companion and a first rate therapy dog. We sure had a lot of fun together. And through her I met my current wife. +On a Saturday I took Dora to the nursing home and there we met a new nurse that was serving one of the wings of the home. She was immediately attracted to Dora and that is how I met her. We struck up a conversation and over time a relationship. We started dating and she always wanted Dora to go with us if at all possible. Eventually we were married and we have never been happier. +Sadly, Dora passed away about three years ago. But before then we obtained three more shelties, all who are therapy dogs. We both now serve multiple locations and special events for the therapy organization. We really have a good time even though we both miss Dora. I will always have fond memories of Dora. She was the bright light in so many people's lives." +103,Choosing a Good School,PrincessErin,How To,2008-05-19,2008-05-19,2022-01-04 08:26:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/choosing-a-good-school,Advice on choosing the best school for your child(ren).,"['Parenting Advice', 'Parenting How-To']",1.92,"One of the most important decisions a parent can make for their child is: what school to send them to. Choosing a good school for your child can set them up for success. Sending your child to a school that does not meet their needs will surely create a disastrous situation. There are three main things that should be taken into account when choosing a school for your child. The first is the location of the school. The second is what the teacher's and the school's philosophy of education is. Lastly, programs and extracurricular activities play an important part in finding the best school. +Location, location, location. These words are used in real estate, but are pertinent when discussing schools as well. Where a school is located is extremely important to the overall success of your child. The school should be located in a good area of town and be surrounded by residential houses and parks. The school should not be in a downtown location or in an area with a lot of traffic. Safety for your child is a top priority and the community surrounding the school is what makes the school what it is. You also want the school to be close enough to your home. Having a long bus ride to and from school is detrimental to a student's success. The longer they are on the bus in the morning, the earlier they have to wake up. Some kindergarten students are required to be awake at six in the morning to get to school on time. Having a school close to your home also creates a familiar group of friends for your child since children from the neighborhood will go to school together. If the school is close to your home you will be more likely to participate in the school community, which will, in turn, help your child become an active member of the school community. +The teacher is the person your child will have the most contact with every day of the school year. Classroom teachers should have a philosophy of education and be willing to share it with prospective students and parents. Some teachers have very specific philosophies that outline how they deal with discipline as well as their teaching styles. A teacher should have varied methods of teaching and be skilled in differential instruction. A teacher should also explain their expectations for their students and these expectations should be appropriate for the age of the students. Their philosophy of education should fit with the values you have in the home. If a teacher's way of disciplining is the complete opposite of how you discipline at home, there will be constant conflict and this will confuse the student. Students need consistency and if there is seamless instruction from the home to the school and vice versa, there is a higher chance of success. If these values are not the same, then you need to find a new teacher or school. Some schools allow you to choose which teacher you have and if your school is large there might be more than one class of each grade. +In finding the best school for your child, you should also look at the school philosophy and what programs the school offers. Does it offer French as a second language or Spanish as a second language? Does it offer gifted or enrichment programs. Knowing what programs the school offers is a good way of identifying whether the school fits with your and your child's needs and wants. The principal should also have a philosophy of education and be willing to share this with you. They should be able to tell you how they deal with discipline on a school wide basis. They should also be able to tell you how they motivate their staff and what plans he or she has for professional development. A principal is the manager of the school and a well-managed school produces well-educated students. +School doesn't just mean the teaching that goes on in the classroom. Activities that occur both before and after school are just as important. Extracurricular activities should be varied enough to encourage the development of all children. At the same time, the activities should be well organized to make sure that students who participate get the most out of those activities. A school that has a lot of sports, but not a lot of intellectual clubs would be great if your child is active, but not so great if your child is more interested in the arts. A school should offer a range of activities and your child should be given the opportunity to participate in the activities he or she wants to do. +If you are able to choose the school that your child goes to, this is a great beginning point to making sure that your child gets the best education that they can. In simplistic terms you want to make sure that the school fits with your child's needs. You know your child the best and you know what they need to strive in the public education system." +104,Choosing a Yoga Class,KarennaC,How To,2008-04-05,2008-04-05,2022-01-04 08:26:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/choosing-a-yoga-class,Yoga is beneficial. Here's how to choose the best class.,"['Fitness', 'No Sex', 'Yoga']",4.26,"Yoga is a great activity. It's physically beneficial; yoga increases muscle tone and flexibility, as well as building strength. Mentally and emotionally, yoga provides other benefits, such as increased ability to focus, calmness, and a sense of well-being. +As more people come to recognize the benefits of yoga, more people are seeking to take classes, and more classes are being offered. These classes may be taught at a local gym, a yoga studio, a school as part of a recreation program, or in other places. In addition to classes, private individual lessons are often also available. +The difficulty is finding the type of class and instruction that is most appropriate for you. A good place to start is determining what type of yoga most appeals to you and will be most accessible for you if you have any physical limitations. There are several different types of yoga. Among the best known are: +Hatha Yoga. Hatha is the style of yoga with which most people are familiar. It's often relatively slow-paced, and is a gentle introduction to yoga for those who haven't practiced before. It's very relaxing, and is easily adapted for a variety of physical limitations. +Ashtanga. Ashtanga Yoga is a more physically rigorous form of yoga. In Ashtanga, emphasis is placed on breathing and on following a structured sequence of poses, each of which flows into the next without stopping. Ashtanga is usually performed in a heated room, though not as hot as in other forms of yoga. Power Yoga developed from Ashtanga and is very similar, though there is less emphasis on the specific sequence. +Iyengar. Iyengar Yoga emphasizes proper alignment of the body in each pose in order to experience maximum benefit. In Iyengar, poses are held longer than in other forms of yoga, and props may be used to assist the body into position. +Bikram. Bikram Yoga is practiced in an extremely warm room, usually ninety- five to one hundred degrees Fahrenheit. The heat helps loosen muscles, increasing flexibility, and the resulting sweat is believed to purify the body. +Once you have chosen the type of yoga you feel is best for you, the next step is to find a class in that style. You may want to check with area gyms, adult education programs, and recreation departments, particularly if you're interested in Hatha Yoga, in addition to finding yoga studios in your area. Bikram Yoga classes, because of the need to heat the room, are often held at Bikram studios. There are studios which specialize in only one of the other forms of yoga, as well as those in which classes are offered in more than one type. +While you are seeking a class, one important consideration is the instructor. Most gyms and studios have stringent requirements as to the qualifications of their instructors, such as a certain amount of training or specific certification. Many different types of training exist for instructors, ranging from one-day workshops to intense training courses that last several days or weeks and include the philosophical and spiritual concepts of yoga as well as the physical. Certification can be obtained through any of these; however, an instructor who has participated in the more in-depth training is likely to have two hundred hours or more of training, practice, and instruction under supervision of a more experienced instructor. The more training that has been received, the more effective the instructor is likely to be. +In addition to the instructor's qualifications, it's important to think about your own comfort level, personality, etc. For example, would you be more comfortable with a male instructor or a female? Keep in mind that in most classes, the instructor may physically adjust you in poses to be sure that your positioning is correct, though instructors will respect their students' physical boundaries. However, if you aren't comfortable being touched by someone of one gender, you'll likely want to find an instructor of the other gender. +Do you learn best through demonstration or by hearing an explanation? Yoga instructors often use a combination of methods to teach the poses to beginning students, but may use one method more than others. Is it easier for you to be in a fast-paced environment or slow-paced? The environment of the class depends both on the type of yoga and the personality of the instructor. Would you prefer an instructor who is structured, or one who is more laid back? +With these questions in mind to help you find an instructor with whom you will work well, you also need to consider the setting of the class. What time of day would be best for you to practice? Yoga classes generally last from one to two hours, depending on the type of yoga and the size of the class, among other factors. How convenient does the location need to be? Is it easier for you to get to the local gym, or are you willing to travel to a studio? +Once you've found a few potential classes in the type of yoga you wish to practice, it's a good idea to contact the instructors and arrange to visit the classes. Some instructors or studios offer a free trial class; others may not but might be willing to allow you to observe. It's important when you visit classes to learn whether the class is open to beginners, if you've never practiced or are starting a new type of yoga, and how comfortable you feel and the other students seem. By observing or participating in a trial class, you'll get a feel for which class will be the best fit for you. +Yoga is a beneficial practice, both physically and emotionally, and can contribute to lifelong health and fitness. Choosing the best class for you will help you make the most of the practice." +105,Church with Tom,Huntressinred,How To,2015-01-25,2015-01-25,2022-01-04 08:26:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/church-with-tom,A lovely dalliance with a Gentle Man on a Sunday.,"['Climactic', 'Gracious', 'Heated', 'Wild']",3.8,"Today was a bit different. We had Tom's house to ourselves. He met me in St. Francis after I dropped off Maddie to Bryan. +I love that truck. It smells so new and inviting when he helps me in, and he always helps me in. Will that, all those little courtesies ever get old and common place for me? No. They never will. I see the way some men walk in front and lead their partners around and don't seem to give a care where or how they are and the concern that is ever present when I am in his company makes all the difference in how I feel when I am so vulnerable in his arms. Do other men not see or understand that? +This man who is my generation, raised up and taught by a traditional mother, as mine was and my grandmother was, has always displayed those values and hold them honestly whenever he is in my company. I continue always to be impressed with him and who he is with me. +He asks what I would like to do, go back to his house or out to eat or? He doesn't seem eager to cook, or have me cook, so he takes me to a small place in Anoka on Jefferson St., the Main Street Eatery. He has researched it, he later admits. +It is VERY busy there but they seat us at a small table in a crowded dinning area. He is displeased, but I am not, and thus, we order and eat. I have eggs Benedict, that I have not had in a long time and order it with fruit instead of potatoes. It is very good and the fruit is deliciously sweet and plentiful. The table wobbles on an uneven leg and he holds it stable with one foot, slightly irritated. The things he will tolerate for my sake. He is accustomed to fine dining places and exquisite fare, but is just as happy to eat where I am comfortable in small out of the way bars or cafes and tolerate little inconveniences to keep me at my ease. Again, small sacrifices for me that endear him. Does he realize these things and how they impact me, or is it just natural to him? +After the meal he helps me on with my jacket and into the truck and begins the drive back to his house on a curvy country road through Elk River and Nowthen. The country music on the music system is comforting and familiar and pleasant, as is the warm truck and seat heater. He visits with me about incidental things and I marvel at the ease and familiarity that I always feel in his company. This is so new really, but feels so old, so right and relaxed. +When we get to his house he drives the truck into the garage and closes the door. Comes around to help me out of the truck and opens the door to the house. +I know the house from the last time I was here and know my way to the kitchen, bedroom and sunroom. +We talk, sit and visit some. He doesn't hurry, although I feel the need to be handled and held and what all comes after and with that. Actually, I was loath to go eat and just wanted to use my hours in the bed with him, but that is lewd and too anxious so I have bided my time till now and now can barely wait to undress. +He teases me about the cleanliness of the house and sheets on the be and whether or not there is turtle cheesecake. There are all those things waiting for me. He has had trouble finding the cheesecake though, had to go to a Byerly's to get it and it turns out to be luscious, and worth the search. +I go into the bedroom to wash and change into my lingerie outfit while he plays with the music on the computer and I come back in my brown satin lounge pants and chocolate sleeveless shirt. No under things at all. +This is his clear invitation to use his hands and mouth. I am always so ready to participate, gladly, enthusiastically. Finally I am free to indulge in this that I have come for. +Tom gives me so eagerly all the hungry desire I am starving for. We kiss and touch and fondle for just a short while until finally we move to the bedroom where everything is easier, more comfortable and freer. Clothes are soon discarded and skin is the order of the day and we get lost in the feel and smell and taste of each other. +Hours slide by, in the dusky bedroom with music in the background and oil, and liquor and ice. To sit and remember it and put it down on paper carries my mind back to a heady, happy glorious place I wish I never had to leave. +I have had such a difficult time taking my climax from him. Is that my conscience demanding payment for this crime of faithlessness? Probably, but today, I nearly reached that sweet point but not quite and again I resort to the vibrator which takes me at last over the edge. This is a disappointment for Tom I know, he admits it is and wants so badly to find the key to releasing that amazing feeling for me. +When his climax takes him, he is the animal unleashed that no one else ever sees or knows exists. +I tell him as much, after he catches his breath and can focus on where and who he is once more. +I laugh, delighted that he has enjoyed me, I have completed what I set out to do. His lazy, relaxed, relieved smile asks me ""what?"" +I smile, warmly as I move comfortingly into his arms, he has rolled off of me and onto his back. ""No one in your 'real life' knows you are this animal."" I tell him. ""You are this wild, unleashed thing only with me."" ""I love it that only I know this side of you."" +He tells me ""I have never been with anyone like you."" ""You are unique, amazing and beautiful."" ""You take me to a place I cannot reach without you."" +We lay there, in each others arms, resting, and content. This is almost as glorious a feeling as the play and climax. I think again, silently of how after that first opportunity I have this man, and how badly that turned out, that I thought 'no more.' +But something deep inside me begged a second chance for just one second chance. He was worth a second chance. Prophetic. All these lovely Sunday afternoons I would have foregone, had I not generously, graciously offered this gentle man one second chance. +Finally, we deem it time to leave this place of passion, this dusky room and dress and finish the day. +I am ever the honored guest with him, and when I request a shower, he makes all accommodation for that little comfort, and provides towel and necessities. As I indulge in my toilette he dresses, makes one fresh cocktail each and waits upon me. +I finally emerge, fresh, warm and coiffed, ready to begin my trek homeward and he smiles, ""one for the road?"" he asks me? +""Yes, thank you kindly sir."" I tell him and reach for the glass. Glass. He is much like I am in that, he won't drink his liquor from paper or plastic cups. Something about the cold hard feel of good glass in one's hand makes the liquor all the more splendid. It has been an exceptionally wonderful ""Sunday at Church""." +106,Circumstances that Make You a Bitch,Sabrinaseales,How To,2016-01-23,2016-01-23,2022-01-04 08:26:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/circumstances-that-make-you-a-bitch,Acts of desperation...,"['Cockhold', 'Desperate', 'Dildo', 'How To']",3.69,"Some days I feel so fucking desperate... +Hmmm...how did it come to this that I had not fucked or even kissed anyone in almost three years and my pussy ached like an itch to be scratched ...I felt myself in the urge to suck tongue so bad and pull some erect cock up my cunt. +Oh I tried going in churches almost everyday, to control desire and be a good Christian woman but at 38 I was so unbelievably horny.

I've got most of my information from asking other people, both guys and girls, and I've included stuff I've learned in my experience as a cock-sucking slut! +First of all, the general opinion seems to be that unless there's a pressing reason (like you're sucking off total strangers on a crowded train) it's preferable if you're naked. Particularly if you've got nice tits (and let's face it, boys are less fussy about the tits they can get in their bedroom than they are about the ones in porn), topless is almost a minimum requirement. There are a couple of advantages to being naked when you're giving a blowjob. Firstly, it's easier to clean up -- just rub anything that lands on you into your skin. Sure, you'll never get a nice Monica Lewinski-style souvenir, but at the same time you'll save money on dry cleaning. Secondly, it means easy access so you or he can play with your bits and pieces -- you'll both love it, more on this later. +Now, obviously getting naked before giving head will decrease the spontaneity a bit. Spontaneity is something a lot of guys like, and I think there are a few reasons. Firstly, the idea that you can't wait to drink the cum straight out of him will probably drive your man wild. I remember watching in awe as my best friend dropped to her knees at a music festival once, her man loved it so much she only just got her mouth around his dick in time to swallow his load. I think a spontaneous blowjob also has a subtle psychological effect. If you randomly whip out his cock and suck him off, it will seem more likely to him that you'll do it again some time. +So to put a bit of that spontaneity back in, you could try a couple of things that work for me. Obviously, you could take advantage of already being naked, if you're changing clothes or having a shower. Another thing I've found drives most men wild is to drop to your knees, start sucking on their cock, and then tear your clothes off. Finally, you could do a little bit of planning and be wearing something that will come off quickly and easily as you move toward his big, throbbing member. You could, of course, suck him off fully clothed every once in a while, some guys love it like that, some like to have a view. +A very important facet of your blowjob is what I will, for want of a better word, call presentation. I've found that there's not much turns a man on more than the idea that you can't resist sucking on his dick. Paradoxically, a bit of teasing is also a big help, particularly if you're trying to make and impression. The old sucking on a prop trick is clichéd because it works -- don't be scared to use it. If there's nothing suitable readily available, suck on your finger. This is extremely effective if you do it in public. Just keep your eyes locked on his, so he knows the prop is standing in for his dick, not someone else's. +In a similar vein, give him a big sloppy kiss and pretend his tongue is his dick. Suck it into your mouth and run your tongue over it. Some guys like this more than others. +Once you get him alone with plenty of time, give him a show. You or he can take your clothes off, but if you want him to do it you might need to get it started to give him the idea -- men can be a bit slow sometimes! If you're a confident girl, give him a bit of a striptease, with or without music, finish up with a few sexy poses, then get out his dick and chow down. If you're a bit less outgoing, or you're shy, take your own clothes off, but do it slowly. One thing that used to help me was imagining your hands belong to someone else. Move a slowly as you can, turning occasionally. Caress your own skin like a lover should. A big teasing tip: remove your underwear with your back to him, but turn between bra and panties so he gets a look at your tits. Pinch your nipples a bit for him, I've never met a man that didn't work on. If you're insecure about your body, do all this with the lights low; guys have a pretty good imagination, so chances are he'll remember you looking sexier than you think. +So now we're at the stage where you're naked and he's starting to go crazy with lust. You need to get over there and start sucking, and you can just do that directly if you want. This works well in terms of making him feel irresistible. I would recommend saying something like, ""Get that big dick out, honey, I want to suck you dry,"" as you advance on him. Try to time it so your knees hit the floor as his cock pops out of his pants, that way it's more like a porn movie, and he'll love it. +To keep things in your control, you need to keep him mesmerised, so I'd recommend slow and sexy movements. If he's standing I like to walk over to him, swaying my hips, and grab his belt. Pull him up against you, press your tits into his chest, and kiss him as you undo his pants. Get down on your knees as you push his undies down; kiss down his body if you want, I would recommend looking into his eyes. +If he's sitting I like to crawl over to him. If he's on a chair I crawl all the way, but if he's on a bed I'll walk to the bed then crawl up to him. As you crawl, arch your back downward like a cat stretching. Try brushing your nipples on the floor. This leaves your ass sticking up in the air, and the crawling motion will make it sway enticingly. When you reach him, stop at his dick, give him a lustful look and start getting into his pants. +This is the point at which you either whip him out and get going, or you turn the teasing up to eleven. I have driven guys wild by starting to blow them through their underwear (this works better with stretchy skin-tight undies than with loose silk boxers). Try giving him the impression that as much as you're teasing him, the self-denial is twice as bad for you. A girlfriend of mine likes to savour the smell as if it's a cigar. Do whatever you feel like, the important thing is you're teasing him to make it better, not to make his life miserable! +How you proceed once you're face-to-face with his cock depends on what condition it's in. Young guys will be just about ready to cum, while old guys won't be hard yet (generally -- prepare to be surprised, it's part of the fun!). One thing I absolutely love is putting a flaccid dick in my mouth and feeling it swell up in there. I'll also pop the young guys straight in so that if they're going to lose it we can get the first one out of the way and start again. Otherwise I generally give the cock a bit of a tongue bath. +I'd like to talk a bit about taste. Personally, I think cock tastes good. It doesn't have to be straight out of the shower, I don't mind if it's developed a bit of an aroma, within reason. If you pull it out of his pants and the smell beats you over the head take him off to the shower, give him a rinse, and continue there. Trust me, most guys will do anything for head, so he won't mind. Just try not to grimace or retch. You might find a man who wants you to lick things off him. Whipped cream and stuff is fine (although wash well to avoid smelling of cheese), no problems. Lots of guys like you to lick your pussy juices off them (assuming you're not using a condom, which means only in a trusting relationship once you've been tested -- very important), which is something I have no problem with. I would advise you to taste yourself on your own if you think you might do this -- just lick your fingers when you masturbate, and that way you won't surprise yourself. Some guys want to do the ass-to-mouth thing they've seen in porn. Leave this one in the videos, it's not worth the risk associated with ingesting your own shit. Finally, personally I hate the taste of latex, but I know some of my girlfriends don't mind it. I always use flavoured condoms for casual sex so he'll at least taste of chocolatey latex. +So, we're up to licking his dick all over. Try to savour the experience, it'll turn him on even more if you're loving what you're doing. One important thing about cocks is that you can push them up (against his stomach), but it could hurt him if you push it down too hard (some guys love this, though). Most guys like it if you push their cock up against their stomach and lick the underside of it. You can move down and lick their balls (gently!), and I go a bit lower to lick the perineum. This is where if you are into it, and don't mind the risk, you can give your man's ass a bit of a licking. +Usually at this point you've got one hand lifting his cock by the tip, and the other's not really doing much, which leads us to the question of what to do with your hands. If you're lucky enough to have a big man, your hands will be very useful because they will be the only way to stimulate the base of his dick. Wrap your hand around his shaft and pump the bit you can't fit into your mouth. You can do the same thing if you want to concentrate on his head with your lips and tongue. +If you're at a loss, you could always play with yourself. I've sucked a lot of guys who loved to look down and see me sucking hard on their cock while I tweaked and pulled both my nipples. If you're planning to blow this guy again, be sure to show him the wet spot you leave behind because you got so turned on sucking on his big, beautiful, hard cock. +By now you should have a big, hard cock in your mouth (you lucky thing!) and your man's full attention. As far as I can tell, the consensus seems to be that sloppy is better. Make sure you're not dehydrated before you start so you can generate spit -- you want to leave a shiny layer all over him. He'll love the idea that you drool at the thought of sucking him off, and I'm told it feels better. This is also an area where fingering yourself gives you an advantage -- just use your own juices to lube him up, supplementing his precum and your saliva. You might have seen in porn (or maybe real life, who knows?!) girls spitting at cocks. This is something I personally find a bit weird, but if a guy asked for it I'd do it. What I find sexier is nestling him between my boobs and sort of dribbling on him. Anything that misses I just wipe from my tits onto his cock. +Speaking of this kind of thing, I've been with guys who've asked for a titfuck, and I'm usually happy to oblige. I think with this kind of thing the turn-on is more visual than anything else, so be sure to look up at him with your sexy eyes and make a real show of sliding your boobs over his hard-on. Rather than waste saliva on this (it's hard to make enough) I recommend you get some lube. If it doesn't make you feel silly, a bit of dirty talking wouldn't go astray. One thing I do like is rubbing the cock over my nipples. In fact I love to tell a man how wonderful his cock is as I rub it over my skin -- face, tits, nipples, through my hair. I think it's because it feels a bit naughty. +On the subject of talking, I have this to say: if you can talk to the guy, it's not a blowjob. Your mouth should be full most of the time. Don't get me wrong, handjobs are great, especially at the end. I love to watch a dick twitch and pump a big load of cum at me, watch it fly towards me, and feel it splatter on my skin. If you're giving head, however, there needs to be lots of contact between your mouth and his dick. If you want to talk to him, do it between deep sucks of his cock. For example, ask him how it feels, then bury him in your mouth while he groans his ecstatic response, then pop him out again and tell him you love it too. Also, give him the impression talking is secondary to sucking by not answering him immediately. If he asks you a yes/no question, don't even take him out of your mouth, just answer with an ""Uh-huh"" with your mouth full. +In terms of incoherent noises, I would advise you not to fake sexual pleasure -- most guys won't buy it if you fake an orgasm while blowing them. If you do want to make some sort of moan, think more of eating a delicious chocolate dessert rather than being skilfully fingered. Of course, if you're going to cum for real, just let it out, and if you are playing with yourself (or he's playing with you), respond to that too. The noises he really wants to hear are the ones that show how hard you're working -- the sucking, slurping, popping noise of a girl trying as hard as she can to drink her man's cum! +If you talk to him, don't be too clever -- remember most of his blood's not in his brain anymore! When I first see his cock I like to complement it -- tell him it's big, hot, hard, beautiful, whatever's not too blatant a lie. If you really can't complement its appearance, give it a good licking or sucking and then tell him it's delicious. In fact, tell him that regardless. During the course of the blowjob you can reinforce the message by repeating it. You could also tell him how much you love what you're doing, or how turned on you are (don't lie about this -- he might check). If this is just stage one of the lovemaking, tell him what you look forward to doing next. If he's a stranger you've picked up, you could tell him you never do this but you find him irresistible. At the end, it's usually a good idea to give the guy permission and encouragement. It's nice to let him know you want to swallow, or take it on your face, or whatever. If there's something you don't want, tell him you do want something else, so instead of, ""Don't you dare cum in my mouth, you perve,"" go for, ""I want it all over my tits, you big stud."" If you don't want the cum on you, tell him you want to watch it shoot, then point his dick past you. +As far as technique goes, I think it comes pretty naturally. You're mimicking intercourse using your mouth, essentially. The difference is teeth, tongue, and the ""fact"" that good girls don't do it. Lots of guys are freaked out by teeth in blowjobs, some guys like it. You could ask, but I prefer to let him ask me for it. Generally, just use your teeth either to scrape gently over the shaft, or to kind of grip the head at the back and pull, once again, gently! The tongue is a whole other matter. You need to use it. I don't have a tongue piercing because I like my teeth and don't want them chipped or ground down, but apparently this really does make a difference. Your tongue should slither around him, wrapping itself around the head, sliding along the shaft. Your technique will vary depending on the length of your tongue. A favourite among guys seems to be sticking your tongue out to lick his balls while his dick is buried in your mouth, but unless he's miniscule you'll need to control your gag reflex. +Now, guys love going down your throat, which is something I blame on porn. I personally have a gag reflex, so I can't do the relentless throat-fucking thing you see in movies, and I don't think there's anything sexy about puking. If you are with someone who wants to make you throw up, make sure you get most of it on him. This deep-throat thing is ok as long as you're in control, though. Once again, probably because it feels naughty, it can be a real turn- on to go as far down a cock as you can. I think guys actually prefer it if you gag a little bit, pop up for air, then dive straight back onto them, rather than either the professional ""I can do this all night"" thing or if you go too hard and spend five minutes coughing. If a guy grabs your head and you're not one of those girls who likes that, or if you don't trust this particular guy, take his hands and move them down to your nipples. Then suck him as deep and as hard as you can to show there's no hard feelings. +If you're still at a loss as far as technique goes, get some porn and try anything you see that you like. What's even more fun is to get some porn, then watch it with your man and give him what he sees on screen (maybe a good idea to check the movie on your own first to avoid nasty surprises!). Guys love it if you can give them exactly the same rhythm and action as the slut on screen. +After doing your thing for a while, he'll be getting ready to unload for you. If you're a bit inexperienced and can't tell, he'll start to do something different -- lots of guys start to thrust at you, which means they want you to use their rhythm rather than yours so go with that; some guys go still, so basically don't let that freak you out; some guys start talking more, or get less coherent and more grunty. If he starts saying, ""I'm gonna cum, I'm gonna cum,"" over and over, he's probably a little way off and needs some help, which you can provide by popping him out of your mouth and begging for a big load! +You'll learn to read the signs pretty easily -- when he cums, his pelvic muscles all squeeze up to shoot the semen out of him and this means his balls will lift up and his shaft will twitch. Then you'll find yourself with a jet of spunk to deal with, and you should think about how you're going to do that well before it happens. +Personally, I think cum tastes fantastic -- I'd buy it in bottles if I could -- so obviously I have no problem swallowing it. If you do, I suggest two things. First of all, catch it on your skin, then rub it in -- it's sexy without you needing to taste it. Secondly, try to acquire a taste for it, because there are some fun places you can blow a man where you don't want to leave a mess (your car, for example). +Some guys want to cum on you (usually face or tits after a blowjob), which might be their way of marking you or something. Whatever it is, there's not much reason not to let them if you're in private. If you're in public (or about to be), maybe consider just how bad the consequences could be, although chances are people won't really notice much. One of the sexiest things I've ever done was to blow a random guy first thing in the morning at university, have him wipe his dick in my hair, and then walk around all day being able to smell the faint aroma of cock in my hair. None of my girlfriends commented, so I assume they didn't notice, but I was so turned on I had to go and buy some more panties at lunchtime. +To give a man the best of both worlds, do one of these, then the other. Either have him cum on you, then scoop it up and eat it, or collect his cum in your mouth and dribble it all over yourself. I have a friend who likes to ""accidentally on purpose"" get a few dribbles on her clothes to make herself look and feel more slutty. +Once you finish, don't forget to thank him -- he'll thank you, but won't expect thanks back. If he's a regular of yours tell him you have so much fun you need to do it more often. If he's more of a one-off thing tell him you'd love to do it again. +I hope all this helps. Please remember to be safe, and that nobody has the right to force you to do something you don't want to do." +108,Clench and Hold,ClarasBestFriend,How To,2021-01-02,2021-01-02,2022-01-04 08:26:54,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/clench-and-hold,How to Perform the Clench & Hold Meditation.,"['Breath Orgasm', 'Breathgasm', 'Chakra', 'Energy Orgasm', 'Full Body Orgasm', 'Meditation', 'Tantra']",4.29,"Clench & Hold +An Energy Orgasm Meditation Technique +This little instruction manual was written for a dear friend, who I believed would be able to benefit immensely from the techniques and practices contained in these pages. I hope she is able to achieve the highest levels of mental and physical clarity, and that her life is improved by following these instructions. +However, these instructions are not specific to any one person, or even to any particular gender or sex. Energy orgasms are beautiful in that they do not directly involve the genitals, and so can be practiced just as effectively regardless of the equipment any particular person may have. For instance, I am a man (though, I like to think, a very open-minded one), and most of the people who have written on this and similar topics have tended to be women (in my experience). But I followed their instructions and felt the full benefits they describe! +I would, of course, be remiss not to acknowledge Barbara Carrellas, whose writing provided the background, inspiration, and a large portion of the specific details contained in these instructions. What is contained here, though, is my own take on the ideas expressed in her work, combined with various other amazing sex educators and practioners of Tantra and other sexual/spiritual bodies of knowledge. +I hope that you, dear reader, are able to find some form of personal enlightenment and ecstatic pleasure based on these instructions. Feel free to follow them exactly, or modify them, or just take them as vague inspiration for your own ritual. Most importantly: Have fun! +Motivation +Why Even Do This? +So, you are at least curious about the experience of an energy orgasm, or else you wouldn't have made it this far into reading. These kinds of rituals can be incredibly beneficial, in everything from physical and emotional release to increased self-control to overcoming internal mental blocks which stand in the way of realizing your true, ecstatic self. +Speaking from my own experience, practicing these techniques regularly (maybe a few times a week) has allowed me to develop very strong control over my own arousal and release, get more in-tune with my partner (a beautiful young woman who we will call Clara), and clear my head from intrusive thoughts or hang-ups regarding sex and sexuality. Basically, it helped me become the person I want to be, sexually and emotionally and mentally. Plus, the first time I experienced a true, full-body energy orgasm (having only had the traditional, male, ejactulatory orgasms before and having been envious of Clara for the full-body, trembling orgasms I had seen and helped her experience), it completely changed the way I think of sexual pleasure. Rocked my world. And now, I experience all sorts of pleasure more fully, having opened those pathways in my mind and body. +If you follow these instructions, I have every faith that you, too, will reap the immense and diverse benefits. You will feel happier, more in control of yourself, and more capable of receiving pleasure from yourself, a partner, or whatever else. Your mind will be clearer, and that in and of itself is worth trying this meditation! +As an extra-fun bonus, Clara has been very clear in her appreciation of my changed outlook, increased control, and capacity to ""tune in"" to her body and what is bringing her pleasure. +If those reasons aren't enough, then maybe this will work: This is the best, most reliable way I know for women to be multi-orgasmic, and the only sure- fire way I know of for men to be. More orgasms are good, no? +I hope you're sufficiently motivated! Before we jump into the ""how-to"", let's spend some time going over the ""how."" +How It Works +The ""Science"" Behind Tantra +To be totally, completely up-front: I have degrees in math and physics from a very reputable university, and am currently a data scientist. That is to say, I fancy myself a man of science. I do not believe in the soul, or in ""manifesting energy,"" or any of that. +However, I do believe in the capacity for the human mind to have staggeringly powerful influence over sensation and physical experience. The placebo effect is extraordinarily real, with study after study confirming its efficacy even when the placebo group KNOWS they are taking a placebo. I don't know if the very real effects of these kinds of practices can be attributed to the placebo effect, but it seems as good an explanation as any. +All that to say: Whether you believe in this kind of spirituality or not, this stuff works. And trust me, you don't need to ""truly"" believe in the ""magic"" for it to work. You just need to believe that it will produce a tangible result, and give it a chance. If that means suspending disbelief and really getting into it (like I did), great! If you can't or don't want to go that far, that's fine. Just trust in the placebo effect, or psychosomatic phenomena, or even just think of this all as one giant experiment in cardiovascular tomfoolery mixed with some serious mental exercise. However you get there, all that really matters is that you try it, and it will work. +In the frame of mind of somebody who truly believes in the energy-flow ideas laid out much more artfully by other writers, the idea is basically this: +Create a calm, comfortable, safe space wherein to practice your ritual, free from situations and negative energy. For me, this can be either my bedroom or my living room couch, and I recently tried it in the shower to fascinatingly wonderful results. But to start, make sure you're lying down and comfortable, on your back with your legs out straight and your head resting on a comfy pillow. Soft, calming music is good, as is candle-light. Just some suggestions! +You invite positive energy into your first chakra (a Tantric ""energy center"" located at the base of your torso, between your genitals and your anus, i.e. at your perineum), channeling it into your body through calm, meditative breathing and focused visualization. While absorbing this positive energy, allow it to push all of your negative energy and intrusive thoughts out. +Repeat this process, replacing tension and negativity with positive energy and happiness and awareness, up through the rest of your chakras, moving one-by- one through the 2nd (located just above your pubic bone and below your navel), 3rd (the solar plexus), 4th (the sternum, level with the heart), 5th (throat), 6th (between your eyebrows), and 7th (the ""crown chakra"" or top of your head). At the end of this process, your body will be wiped clean of stress, tension, and negative vibes. You will be tingling with positivity and excitement, and supremely aware of your body. +Then, you will focus on this energy, building it up to fever-pitch, and creating a delicious potential in your mind and body. Once you are almost consumed by the energy coursing through you, you will do what the name of this meditation implies. +The ""Clench & Hold"" is exactly what it sounds like. You clench your entire body, creating an almost-unbearable tension, and hold yourself there (""on the edge"" of your energy orgasm). Then, thankfully, you release, letting the energy race through you and causing your entire being to vibrate with ecstasy. This is not ""like an orgasm,"" it well and truly is. Tension melts away, leaving a profound contentment and peace. +The after-care is also incredibly important. After being that vulnerable, even only to yourself, you need to be comforted and welcomed back into the real, physical world. Caring for yourself at this time is absolutely vital, and can elevate the experience from ""really fun"" to ""world-altering"" in its profundity. +So that's the magic. I highly recommend, even if you're like me and don't easily buy into that stuff, that you at least convince yourself to believe in this. It makes it more fulfilling, though most of the effects remain either way. On a strictly scientific level, though, this technique is still really cool. Basically, we're going to focus so intensely on our breathing and the movement of our muscles that everything else fades into the background. This is a great time to work through any internal, mental, or emotional blocks you may have re: pleasure. Then, with a completely clear mindset, we build up an incredible tension in our bodies. When that tension is suddenly and consciously released, well, that basically just is what an orgasm is, right? Especially if you focus on your genitals, breasts, or other erogenous zones. +I highly recommend reading this entire thing, and then trying it out. That way, you'll have some idea what you're doing, and can focus on doing it without having to pay attention to reading. With no further ado... +Stage 1 +The Buildup, or Psychological Foreplay +First, as mentioned above, you need to create a space wherein you can practice this ritual without interruption. A comfy bed or plush carpet is a great first place to try. Light candles, play calming music, darken the room, really just do your best to create what feels like a mystic, zen temple to you. +Next, I highly suggest undressing. Being fully naked allows you to experience every little movement that much more powerfully. But if that's not your style, just undress to your comfort level. Orr put on a winter coat, if that's what you want! I don't care; nobody else cares. This is about you, and being comfortable. You're in charge of what that means. +Once your surroundings and your wardrobe (or lack thereof) are ready, lit on your back on a soft, yielding, comfortable surface with your head on a pillow. Your legs should stick straight out, and your arms should be by your sides. Be sure to relax into this position, though. +Now you're going to start breathing. Breathe in slowly, gently drawing air into your lungs, and hold the breath in for a few seconds. Then, let it fall out of you. Don't compress your diaphragm to push the air out; just let gravity handle that. While thi is happening, I recommend squeezing your pelvic floor (the muscles that extend as a net from your pubic bone to your sitz bones, and sort of hold your genitals and other lower-torso organs in place). Letting out a gentle moan also feels really nice, though you can wait to do that until you are comfortable. At later points in this stage, you may find yourself wanting to moan more loudly. Go for it! Just do whatever feels right in that regard. +Now, to start the energy flow. The first phase of this is breathing energy into and out of your first chakra. Visualize positive energy (whatever that means to you; I personally try to imagine warmth and that fantastic post- workout muscular tingle) flowing into your perineum when you breathe in, and swirling about when you hold the breath. When you breathe out, imagine that the air falling out of you carries with it whatever thoughts and emotions are causing you distress or negative thoughts. If there is a past trauma or other bad experience, let the air carry the feelings associated with those memories out of you. If you have internalized any negative messages pertaining to sex and sexuality, let your breathe gradually carry those away. In their place, be conscious of the calm, steady, happy energy that you are pulling into yourself. +This is incredibly important: DO THIS UNTIL YOU FEEL LIKE YOU FEEL CALM. Any tension you were holding in that chakra should be gone by the time you move on. Don't rush it, though! The first time I did this meditation, I spent about an hour on this particular part. Be patient; it will pay off tremendously. +Be conscious to also remove the tension in your legs during this phase, as the 1st chakra is the most closely related with them. +Now that your 1st chakra is calm, happy, and hopefully tingling with visualized positivity, it is time to move onto the 2nd chakra. This one is located between your pubic bone and your navel, and is associated with the muscles in that area, as well as your instincts and digestion. Continue, without interruption, the process of cyclic breathing, but now draw the positive energy from your 1st chakra into the 2nd, while again allowing the negative energy to flow out of you and far away. Wait, again, until this entire chakra is calm and positive, almost thrumming with good feelings. Any tension in your abdominal muscles should dissipate while doing this, feeling your lower torso feeling almost completely at-ease. Take as long as you need, though for me this was much faster than the previous phase. Try to visualize the energy moving; it helps! +Then, repeat the process again but to your 3rd chakra, located in your solar plexus. Again, visualize the flowing energy, and continue until your lower chest is devoid of tension. +When the 3 lower chakras are all cleansed of negative energy and you can feel a sort of tingling throughout those parts of your body, it is time for the 4th (or ""heart"") chakra! This might take a while, like the 1st chakra, because we carry so much tension and emotion in our hearts and lungs. Just keep breathing, and visualize the energy flowing, until your chest feels calm and clear. Your entire torso should now be tension-less and almost vibrating with positive energy. Feel free to take some time to lightly, gently caress yourself, running your fingertips over your skin and feeling the blissful calmness. Keep breathing like you have been, though! This is a good time to pay attention to any lingering tensions, and remove them with focused, deliberate breathing. +When working on the heart chakra, be sure to also focus on removing the tension in your arms, as this is the one most closely connected to those extremities. +Congratulations! Your 4 lower chakras and your entire torso are calm, happy, and energized. Now, it's time to move onto the higher chakras. First up is the 5th chakra, located at the throat. Repeat the same process, continuing your breath and the flow of energy until the tension in your neck melts away and your skin there feels even more sensitive than usual. +Next, do the same thing but for your 6th chakra, located between your eyebrows. This is your ""third eye,"" if you want to get fully into it, and is closely associated with your ability to observe and manipulate energy. Again, go until there is no tension here. +Finally, the 7th or ""crown"" chakra, located at the top of your head. This is your cosmic connection to All That Is, and visualizing energy moving here honestly just feels so cool if you really get into it! Once this chakra is cleansed and suffused with positivity, your entire body should be calm and full of good feelings. +You should at this point be in a very steady, calm, happy frame of mind. This can take anywhere from 20 minutes to hours and hours, though it will speed up the more times you do it. Take your time, though, and make sure you really feel the results! +Once in this heightened state of body-awareness and calm, it's time to focus on building pleasure. This is where we transition from the deep, content, psychologically-healing part of this meditation to the ecstatic, orgasmic, fun part! +Stage 2 +Approaching the Edge +Your body should be optimally primed, now, to experience the heightened pleasure of the Clench & Hold. But first, let's build up the energy to deliciously-intense levels! +With all of the awareness and positive energy you've been building throughout your entire body and mind, it's now time to escalate things to the point where it feels like you're right on the edge of an intense, full-body orgasm because, well, that's why you're trying this! +This stage is pretty simple, but you're going to want to focus very closely on the feelings of what is happening to your body while you do it. The feelings are really cool, so be sure to enjoy that! +What you're going to do is 30 breaths. But this time, instead of calmly breathing and letting the air fall out of you, you're going to forcefully drive the air in and out. Be sure to completely fill and empty your lungs each time. Be mindful of the energy pulsing throughout your entire body, and be sure to still do pelvic floor squeezes on the out-breaths. +When you have finished 30 breaths (taking about a minute or so), your entire body should be pulsing with energy. Feel this, notice it, and pay attention to it. As a final tension-building step, take one huge breathe in and out, accompanied with a powerful contraction of your pelvic floor. Repeat this, paying particular attention to how the muscular tension makes your genitals feel. +Then, take a third huge, deep breath. Be sure to fill your lungs completely. Clench your pelvic floor, your abdominal muscles, your hands, your toes, and basically every muscle in your body. Arch your back, close your eyes, and hold your breath in. Count to 10. Now you're ready for a full-body energy orgasm! +Climax +What You All Came Here For +After counting to 10, with your breath held and every muscle in your body tensed, it's time. Release your breath, and all of your muscles. +A few things will happen at once: +Your heart will race, trying to circulate oxygen to make up for your held breath. You may notice your head feeling light, and feel your heartbeat throughout your body. +You will feel a rush of energy throughout your entire body, but especially in your pelvic floor and genital region, because you were clenching those muscles so tightly. +You will almost definitely moan, loudly. This is wonderful! Give into the urge and the feeling. Let it carry you away. +The tension you just built up in your muscles, and especially your genitals, will be gone. Completely gone. +Congratulations! You just experienced an energy orgasm. Woohoo! +Every time I have done this, it has felt incredibly awesome. It is a full-body experience, flooding you with release and pleasure. Ride that wave, and enjoy. +Afterglow +Self-Care As You Come Down +You just came. Sure, if you're a man, you didn't ejaculate. But you don't need to do that for it to be an orgasm! If you're a woman, well... It actually is pretty similar to a good vaginal orgasm, or so I'm told! +What you do now is incredibly important. Throughout this entire process, you have been incredibly vulnerable with yourself. And you just had a really powerful orgasm. So you need some after-care. You need to feel gentle touch, and hear reaffirming words. So touch your body softly. Skim your fingers over yourself, paying close attention to the tingly feeling. Tell yourself how amazing you are, how awesome it was of you to try this, how much you just impressed yourself. Be a considerate lover to yourself. Compliment what you love about yourself, talk about how beautiful that orgasm was, and laugh at the tingles going through your entire body. +Take care of yourself, staying lying on your back for at least 10 more minutes and just appreciating yourself. This was a hard thing to do, and took focus. You deserve some recognition! You are wonderful; make sure you know it. +When you are all calmed down, you should be totally tension-free again, like after a really good lovemaking session. You should feel light, and giddy, and whole. +Once you are back to normal, having gently welcomed yourself back from the heavens, stand slowly and go about your day. But don't forget this feeling! Carry it with you, and smile about it. +Benefits and Uses +Some Ideas for Further Play +Some benefits of this meditation: +Immediate release and physical/emotional happiness +Long-lasting calm +If practiced regularly, a growing sense of power over your own physical and mental state, and an increased awareness of the world and yourself +Just feels so great! +Ways you can incorporate this into your life: +With repeated practice, can be used to resolve a lot of internal blocks and tensions +Feeling horny, but don't want to masturbate in the traditional sense? This can be your release! +Done in the morning, this will clear your head for the rest fo the day +Done with a partner, well... Watching someone you care about writhe around in orgasm is hardly boring... +I hope you find a million more benefits! Just give this a try, and you will see positive effects.

I have a jewelry box devoted entirely to pearls. The bottom is lined with thick, black velvet boxes that contain the really good sets - the ones handed down from my grandmother, or the ones given to me by a lover. Those I reserve for special occasions. But on top of that is a tangled mass of strands, all different colors, white, black, pale pink, silver, gold, all waiting to be taken out and played with because yes - these are my ""play"" pearls. I don't know what it is about a strand of pearls hanging low between my breasts, but whatever it is, I definitely like the reaction I get when I put them on. And I don't know a woman who doesn't feel just a little bit more feminine and sexy with pearls sliding over her skin. +I saw an article recently about pleasuring your lover with pearls and because I'm a pearl girl, I had to check it out. There were some fantastic ideas listed, including tying your lover up with pearls (of course, it has to be more ""pretend"" than ""real"" bondage, unless you both want to end up tripping on pearlescent beads like a couple of Warner Brothers cartoons!) She even talked about penetrating a woman with pearls, which was a rather sexy thought, but then the article ended and I thought, ""Hey! Wait a minute! You forgot something!"" Or more to the point - _someone._ This bi-girl had focused on the female, but the masculine had been completely overlooked! +And you know me... we just can't have that! +What happened to the combination of pearls and cock? Because that, folks, is a marriage made in pleasure heaven, and my husband can attest to it firsthand! Well, he could, if he were here... but I guess since he's not, you'll have to hear it secondhand, from the perspective of the giver rather than the receiver. +In order to really give you the real how-to about cock and pearls, I thought I'd better do a little bit more research and practice, just to be sure I had the techniques down so I could relay them to all of you. +""You don't mind, do you?"" I asked my husband, standing naked in front of the mirror and slinging strands of pearls around my neck, all different colors and lengths. +""Anything in the name of science."" Mr. Kitt leaned back naked on the bed, his cock straightening toward full mast with every new pearly addition at my throat. +I knelt between his thighs, biting my lip and admiring the gentle throb of the member I was assessing, wondering just exactly how to proceed. I had an idea, but ideas don't always work in practice, which is why I was venturing on this experiment - he and I were going to be guinea pigs - without all the fur and squeaking. Mostly. +""Hand me the K-Y."" I always call lube ""K-Y"" even when it's not... just like I call tissues ""Kleenex."" +There is always a trusty (and sometimes crusty) tube of lube in each of our bedside drawers - well, except for the one time we went looking for it and couldn't find it on either side, and later found that our three-year-old had mistaken it for Purell and was ""washing"" her babies' faces with it. Thankfully, I was the one who found it, and not the babysitter... or Grandma! We've since invested in the edible kind - I love the cherry! - but we remember to ""hide"" it better in the drawers... +""Oh god..."" His voice brought me back to the present as I warmed the lube in my hands and began to stroke, not in any hurry, still contemplative. His eyes closed as I rolled my hand around the length, thumbing the head, slicking him up. He looked at me when I leaned over him, teasing his cock with the strands of pearls and my breasts as I kissed my way over his belly. +""Ready?"" +He just nodded, watching as I squeezed more lube into my hand and began to lube up a long, white strand of pearls hanging around my neck. When I leaned in and began to wrap it around his cock, however, we ran into a snag. +""Ack!"" +""What?"" He jumped and made me choke again. +""Too short!"" I quickly started unwrapping, divesting myself of all the other strands of pearls, tossing them onto the bed. I kept two - a shorter black one, for looks, and a very long white one, which hung down almost to my navel. I used the lube to liberally coat the longer strand, wiping the excess off on his cock, and started again, wrapping the pearls around and around, from base almost to the tip. +""Is that too tight?"" +He shook his head, watching me with interest. I could tell curiousity was outweighing pleasure at this point, but that was okay... we'd get there. Then we ran into yet another snag. I found, once wrapped, while it didn't _feel_ too tight, it was too tight to provide much movement and hence - friction. In true Goldilocks fashion, it took me a third try to get it _just_ right, loose enough to let me stroke him but tight enough to keep them from just slipping off altogether. +But once that was figured out, we were pretty much good to go. His eyes were bright as he watched me, at first using one hand, then taking the strand off altogether so I could use both, squeezing gently as I stroked him faster... a little faster, the lube creating a sweet, frothy friction. The pearls tickled the head of his cock with every pass, and it wasn't long before he was thrusting into my hands, his eyes half closed, his breath coming faster. +""Good?"" I asked, the smell of the cherry lube making me salivate. +""Mr. Wizard would approve."" He groaned when I slid the pearls all the way down and took him into my mouth. I could barely stretch around the pearls, too, so I just sucked the tip as my hands continued to squeeze and tug, getting used to the rhythm, following his breath. The taste of his pre-cum mixed with the cherry-flavor and I sucked harder, hand and mouth working together for that final release. +Mr. Kitt is good about warning me he's going to come. Not because I don't like to swallow, I don't mind, but he knows I love to watch, and he's always been very accommodating in that regard. +""Ahhh baby!"" I knew the tone. I kicked it up a notch, a little more pressure and a tickle of my tongue along the frenulum at every pass. ""I'm gonna--"" +Yes. Oh. God. Yes. I tasted the first wave, a bright, hot flood in my mouth, and swallowed that, but the next spilled over my contracting hands, the pearls slipping easily now, like a nubbed little sheath, urging his cum from his balls in incredible, quivering waves. He gave them each to me with a growl and a thrust, and I watched, delighted, my pussy wet with lust, as his cum slid down the now-sticky pearlescent beads. I worked it in with my hands, making him buck and shudder with pre-orgasmic bliss. +Needless to say, the experiment was quite the success, so I thought I'd share my tips with you! + _1\. Use edible, flavored lube - but definitely DO use it, and a lot of it!_ + _2\. Use very, very long strands of pearls (the kind that go down to the navel) if you want to keep wearing them during the session._ + _3\. Don't use expensive pearls - but make sure they are well made, and preferably individually attached to the strand (so if they break, they don't all come off at once!)_ + _4\. Don't squeeze too hard, and make sure you aren't pinching any skin with the pearls._ + _5\. Wrap the pearls in firm circles - this is sort of a Goldilocks comment, but not to tight and not too loose. Too tight and they won't move. Too loose and there's not enough friction. You'll just have to experiment to get it ""just right,"" Goldiegirl!_ + _6\. If you want it to be a pearl blowjob, and not just foreplay or a handjob, use the pearls to tease the head at the beginning, but as he gets closer to the finish line, push the pearls lower, use your hand to move them up and down (again, tension is important here!) and your mouth over the head.(This is where edible lube is important!)_ + _7\. When he's ready to come, it's really hot to watch it slide down his shaft all over the pearls... but if he likes you to swallow and you don't mind, that's okay too!_ +That's it!

I have, once again, like a lot of people seen the 'freaks' in porno movies who have horse like dicks and thought to myself – 'That can't be normal, most people aren't like that surely.' +But in the back of your mind, you always wonder. Now let me say from the outset that I have nothing in my pants to brag about and although through the years I seem to have been able to satisfy most of the women I have been with, there has never been more than one or two who have, afterwards, made favourable comments either about my length, girth, performance or stamina although they have commented favourably about the over all performance. Perhaps they were just being kind not saying much at all. +Yes, I could say it is because they were so fucking exhausted, they couldn't say anything, but of course that would be lying. I suppose though, if I think back amongst all the women I have had sex with, similarly, there have only been a few that I have thought to be outstanding for one particular reason or another and with them, I have made that very obvious. +I don't think any of them have had particularly small cunts – all the more reason for doubting myself. There has, however, been a couple that have had particularly well-developed cunt muscles and that has made all the difference for both of us. Once again, I now wonder why that was necessary. +There was another whose cunt inner walls were very ribbed and that was sensational. The only trouble with that was that those ribs were made to make you come and come I did. Luckily she was in the days when I was young enough to recover quickly and start all over again and again. +There was another who much preferred me up her arse mind you she had a huge cunt. Her husband once told me ""It was like chucking a bit of string in a Cathedral."" +There was another who had bushes of body hair everywhere she could cover up. That I found to be magnificent; I couldn't get enough of her. +I suppose that brings me inevitably on to the issue of size and my size in particular. Well here goes. As I have, for as many years as I can remember, been aware of my size and the issue of whether or not I was big enough, I can tell you that I always seem to have been around 7.5 – 8inches long with 4.5 – 5 inches in girth (that girth measurement is not around the head of my dick because I know that is bigger by about another half inch or so and therefore does not give the true measurement over all). +I therefore thought it was about time to go in search of facts and figures of prick sizes and on methods of improving what I have. With the web now so available to us all and virtually anything you want to research on there, I found no trouble in coming up with many different solutions to my 'problem'. +However, a new problem then developed. Did I want to spend a lot of money on contraptions for the outside of my body and tablets and potions for the inside of my body that might not work anyway? Many years ago, I had had one of those suction pumps that were great fun and made your dick look VERY impressive for as long as you had it on, but as soon as it came off, you were back to square one. +I really did give that one a go for a long time simply because I could see the result I wanted to achieve when it was in operation, but try as I might, it just didn't work for me. One of my friends who I confided in (after a particularly fine foursome where it was difficult for everyone not to be exposed to everyone else) suggested pills. +After some thought, I really couldn't understand how any pill would be able to aim just for your prick and enlarge that, surely there were other similar muscles in your body. And in any case all the pills were 'natural' or 'herbal' and easily available without prescription and that made me sceptical as well. +But then I came across a couple of exercise programmes on the web that were not going to cost me anything and could easily be done in a few minutes of privacy. I won't tell you the names of the sites I got these off otherwise you are going to think this is some kind of advert and not fact at all. However, if anyone wants to contact me, they can and I will give the name of the site to you then. +I started about three months ago and it seems to be having an effect. You can't just do the exercises on their own, you also need to strengthen up the muscle between your balls and your arse for the greatest effect – I will go in to that later. +Each day, I do a warm up whereby I take a shower and whilst still in there, I lather up the old tool and put my thumb and forefinger in an 'O' around the base and pull away from me. I found it best to have my hand the way round that kept the rest of my fingers furthest away from my body when I pulled. +I didn't pull my dick straight out from my body, it always felt most effective when I pulled it almost straight down. I would take each pull slowly so it took me about five seconds to pull down from the base to the head. +I, of course, have always found this to be quite stimulating and would become semi erect by the twentieth to thirtieth pull. Unfortunately, I have never been able to determine if this will slow down the effect I am having on my size or not, perhaps someone could let me know. +After I have done it with one hand about fifty times (always lathering him up frequently as I go) I change hands and pull it down the other way. I am not suggesting that you should pull it slowly down to one side and then the other, I always try to pull it straight down as I have never had any kind of bend on mine. +I suppose that if yours has got a bend in it and you don't like that, (heaven knows why, I have always thought that looked great on blokes, but there again, I don't know if it effects the way you can fuck) you could always slowly pull your dick in the opposite direction to the bend and see if that helps. +Once you have done about fifty pulls with both hands, you need to then gently play with your dick, (not a bad thing) whilst still in the shower to kind of let it get over what you have just done to it. +Just a couple of words of warning, if you are going to give it a try but have had in the past or can get hold of any professional advice now that suggests that, for what ever reason you shouldn't try it, then don't, it just might not be for you. But if you feel confident that it is safe for you and you would like to give it a try, build up to the exercise, don't go mad and do too much straight away. +I must admit, I did it too hard, for too long to begin with and it damn well hurt. My prick went a bruised colour and I felt sure I had done some kind of permanent damage. Luckily I hadn't, but it taught me a very good lesson. I started the second time with just ten pulls with one hand and then the next day, ten pulls with the other. +Soon, I was up to ten pulls per day with both hands and gradually, I have tightened my grip to pull harder as the weeks have gone by, also increasing the number of pulls. +Obviously, this is what works for me and everyone is different. If your prick is used to a lot of battering then you should be able to start stronger that if it isn't, but take it easy and take it steady. +I have now been able to graduate to being able to do it anywhere at anytime I have privacy, I no longer need some kind of lubricant, but my first pull of the day is always in the shower, with the warmth and with the soap, that kind of warms me up for the day. It doesn't take long to whip the old trousers down, say when you go for a pee, instead of standing at a stall, go into a cubicle and you can do a quick pull as well. +The other main thing to watch out for is where you are pushing the blood that is already in your prick as you begin each pull down from the base. Obviously, as your grip gets tighter and you pull down harder, you are going to trap the blood and try forcing it out the end – ouch!!! +For those of you like me who have a foreskin, you will find that it tends to have a semi permanent redness about it as though it is sore and to a certain extent it is. For those cut guys, I don't know what to say because I don't know any cut guys who are doing the same exercises. +What I have tended to start doing as the girth has improved is to continue with the downward pulls, with an ever increasing grip, but not go to the knob end. I now usually stop half way down, pull my foreskin back and then continue with the pull. I only ever go as far as the head. I have never continued my pull over it. +My pulling sessions now normally finish with an extended pull for the final time. That is to say, when I decide I have had enough and things are starting to get a bit tender (which they can if you don't always use lube), the last gripped pull reached the head and I stay there, still pulling for say another ten or fifteen seconds and then slowly let go. +My relaxation period (when I am not at home) always tends to be taking hold of him and gently squeezing him a dozen or so times until things feel back to normal (don't forget, this can be quite exciting and when you leave the loo, you don't want to be walking around the office with a damn great lob on, do you – or do you?). +What effect has all this had? Well, I think it has changed me in several ways, both physically and mentally. First of all, the one you have all been waiting for, what has it done to my dong? +Well when you consider that all these 'enlargement' sites tell you that although you will see change in a few weeks, for the best effect, you must keep doing it for at least a year. I can report that there is not much change in length – you remember I used to be 7.5 – 8 inches (could I really claim 8, well sometimes, just perhaps, maybe if I was quick enough with the ruler) well now, on many occasions there is definitely eight, perhaps a tad more, or is that just my imagination? +But it is the girth where there has been significant change – you remember it was 4.5 – 5, well now I can truly claim an increase to 6 inches at least and you can really feel the difference. When it is flaccid, it used to be about 3 – 3.5 inches, now it is 4 – 4.5 inches dependent on the temperature, you men will know what I mean by that. +And it seems to have been noticed as well (and this is where the mental effect comes in), because the girth has changes size, so has the head, although I have not measured the head yet when fully erect, taking into consideration the increased girth measurement, I would say that it is now in the region of 6.5+ inches, and that shows!!! +When I now have sex, there is a lot more squirming takes place by my partner when we are trying to get me up inside her. She can definitely feel that something is very different and when I am fully up inside of her, she shakes gently, holds me perfectly still as far up inside her as she can get me and squeezes him a lot more with her cunt wall muscles. +When she finally lets him go so that we can start moving, she now loves the feeling of the rim of the head of my dick scraping along the inside walls of her fanny. She also seems to be a lot noisier when she cums. +Now the other thing I thought I better mention is that muscle just behind your balls – I can't remember what it is called but I think it was once referred to as the PA muscle, but there again, it doesn't really matter what it is called as long as you exercise the right one. +All the sites I have found say you must exercise this along with the other pulling exercises and the way to do this is by clenching your arse cheeks together time after time after time. The way I checked which one it was, was to wait until I went for a pee and stopped myself from peeing once I was in full flow. Now the one you can feel yourself clenching is the one you have to exercise. +The sites also say that you can do this at anytime and in any position, laying down, standing up or sitting down. When I went for a pee and stopped myself, the muscle I felt was directly between my balls and my arse but when I started exercising, in certain positions it felt as though I was exercising a completely different muscle up inside my arse. +I don't know if this is the same muscle or not, but to be sure, I feel far more confident exercising when I am sitting down, particularly upright say when in the office or driving. And you really can do it anytime, anywhere no one will ever know what you are doing. +I can't recall any of the sites actually explaining why it is necessary to excise this thing but I have gathered from the way the sites are written that it will help us with our self control and the stiffness of our cock when erect – so exercise I do. +They also suggest that you need to build up to where you are clenching it hundreds of times a day in batches of say fifty at a time. This may sound a lot, but it really isn't IF YOU CAN REMEMBER TO DO IT. It is so easy to forget, but I have now got myself into a frame of mind where it just cums to me second nature now and I almost don't have to think about it, I just find myself doing it. +I do it slowly now but I started where I didn't hold the clench for very long because I found that if I did, it didn't take many clenches before it started to hurt as though I had strained it. Now, fifty takes me about ten minutes, that's all, and if I want to, I can start another fifty straightaway. +Obviously, I don't count them, otherwise I would never be able to concentrate on what anyone around me was saying or what other traffic was doing, I just know how long I have been doing it for each time, but I can really feel the difference in the size of the muscle, now all I have to do is learn how to use that better muscle to my advantage. Once again, if anyone could help me out on that one, I would be most grateful. +All these 'enlargement' plans claim – + **Permanent penis enlargement** – well, we will see, so far, so good + **Experience multiple orgasms** – can't say that one has worked on me yet + **Curvature straightening** – never had a curve + **Increased sexual stamina** – I can certainly last a lot longer now, maybe too long, you have to be careful here. + **Cures and prevents impotence** – cleaver one this, I suppose they can always turn round and say you might have suffered if you hadn't exercised. + **Bigger penis head** – definitely and it's great. + **Rock hard erections** – haven't needed too much here although I would say there is certainly an improvement. + **Increased levels of semen** – hard for me to judge because I love to cum so frequently, but that's another story, however, the girlfriend did go away recently for a couple of days and I was able to leave myself alone (except for exercising) for that time, when she got back and I whipped her straight off to bed, I nearly drowned her. + **More confidence and better sex** – definitely, when you can't sit down with your legs together or you are always having to make yourself comfortable down there, you know you are doing SOMETHING right and that transfers over to when you get her into bed. And it's great when you can sense that she feels the difference, you almost want to smile. With the increased flaccid state, you feel far more confident getting caught around the house. But the best bit is when you are on top of her and in a press-up position so that she can look down you and she sees what is about to hammer her and she makes that quiet little noise in the back of her throat and can't wait to get her hands around it and guide it into her slowly so that you don't hurt her -That's fucking brilliant. +Anyway, that's how if has worked and is still working for me. If you feel it can benefit you, why not give it a go. If you have tried something else and it has worked, why not share it with the rest of us so that we can all benefit. +Until someone cums up with a better solution on how to get your hands on your own member and make big improvements to its size – all free of charge, I am just going to keep pulling away and clenching with my exercises and see what I can achieve. I hope for some improvement to the length, more than I have achieved so far, and a continued improvement to the girth and head – I will measure it sometime for you if anyone is interested. +Please let me know what free improvements you have been able to make to your own meat and how you have been able to make them. Please don't exaggerate, hopefully you can see that I have tried to be as factual as possible with no exaggerations as at the end of the day, we are only trying to make ourselves act and feel better in life and that can't be a bad thing. +I really hope this helps some of you guys out there who have felt like I have in the past. +Good exercising and good luck." +111,Cock Play,ColetteJulie,How To,2018-08-28,2018-08-28,2022-01-04 08:26:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/cock-play,"How to play with a cock, a guide for novices.","['Anus', 'Balls', 'Cock', 'Finger', 'Head', 'Shaft', 'Tongue', 'Urethra']",4.41,"A bunch of girls and guys turned legal this year.

We don't just have sex to procreate, we are all born with a libido, male and female, we all need to satisfy our sexual needs. +So let's slow him down a little by learning what stimulates his cock most (except having it vacuum sealed in a hole) and the rule for great sex when you're between the ages of 18 and whenever your libido calms down a little is to let him climax the first time by means other than penetration, because honey, if you let him in the first time, you're barely going to be able to count to 10 before he spurts into you - yes, men are that horny at this age and require very little stimulation. +Your vagina is another matter, no matter how good it feels or how horny you are, you will require between three and seven minutes of vigorous thrusting on his part before you climax. +To get him to pay some attention to your female genitalia and heat up your fire to match his, you need to acquaint yourself with his cock and all the extra pleasurable spots. These spots and techniques work whether you're using your hand or your tongue. (Other parts of your body, like feet, breasts and armpits can be used for variation.) +1\. Lube him up. If you're going to be using condoms and/or toys, go for water based lube. If not, grab the Vaseline or the baby oil and slather that big boy. That alone will elicit a groan - trust me. Take your time, spread it all around and don't forget his balls and even his asshole. This is a sex organ, not a cake you're icing. There are millions of nerve endings all along the penile erectile tissue and around the anus. All these nerve endings are the beginning and end of his sexual pleasure. If you're using your tongue lubrication is not needed as you will be lubricating him with your saliva. +2\. The urethra. Also called the pisshole or peehole is located (you guessed correctly) at the tip of his penis. Firmly grasp the base of the shaft and run your finger or tongue around his urethra. If you use your pinky finger, you can gently insert the tip into the urethra and then slide it in and out. Do this a few times and keep a firm grip on the base of his cock. Here's where the oil comes in although most men will have a dot of precum at the tip of the cock by this point, this means you can use his own juice to stimulate him. +3\. The head. This is the red mushroom part at the tip of the cock. It may be a purplish color by now, this is blood filling the head of the cock. The tongue is most handy here, even if you're not going to give him a blowjob, (and please make sure he understands that fact beforehand) the tongue just naturally does a better job of stimulating the head. +By mouth: Open your mouth and take the head into it. Close your mouth around the base of the head. You can now pull backwards pursing your lips and that will put pressure onto the head as you slide it out. Do this until you taste another bit of precum. Do not let go of your grip on the base of his shaft! You can also keep the head in your mouth and swirl your tongue around it. Alternatively you can stiffen your tongue and run it along the underside of his head. A fourth technique is to slacken your tongue and push his head against the roof of your mouth then slip it back and forth in your mouth. +By hand: Palm his head and wrap your fingers around it, pull your hand off slowly keeping up the pressure. You can also stroke the underside of the head with your thumb. Place the tip of his head against your palm and rub all around with flat circular motions. (This technique is the most useful for post orgasm torture.) +4\. The shaft. If you watch porn for sex education, the result is going to be sad. What we see in porn is the fastest way to orgasm, not necessarily the nicest. While vigorous stroking is pleasurable, it's the pressure and resistance that is most pleasurable to men. They really do like that foreskin pulled all the way back. You don't have to break a stroking record here, a pace of three seconds a stroke is a good pace to keep him erect but not climaxing. Wrap your free hand around the shaft and stroke firmly. The whole idea when it comes to cock play is to keep one hand wrapped tightly around the base of the penis slowing down or preventing the sperm from entering the penis. +If you're stimulating him with your mouth, take the shaft into your mouth and using your lips, tongue and the roof of your mouth stroke the shaft. Although if you're doing this with your mouth, he's going to be pretty peeved if it isn't going to lead to a blow job; men are funny this way. +The underside of the shaft is more sensitive than the top, apply most pressure and friction here. +5\. The scrotum or ball sack. Many men complain that this part of their magnificent and majestic genitalia is overlooked by most women. Guilty, because what do the hairy balls do for us? Nothing. However, this is the sperm factory and where the male orgasm originates, so it's only polite to give it some attention. While your one hand remains occupied at the base of the shaft, use the other hand to caress the scrotum. Again rubbing in circles with a flat palm will elicit groans of pleasure. You're stimulating his balls to release sperm which is the beginning of his orgasm. If you want to use your mouth, the most sensual pleasure is for you to suck the balls into your mouth. One at a time if he's got big balls. A trick to prevent or delay his orgasm in a hands free way is to attach a ball separator at the top of the scrotum fairly early on in proceedings. +6\. The anus and rectum. Not strictly cock play but his genitalia are related to his anus. A thumb pressed against the anus or rubbing the anus stimulates all the other nerve endings as well. A finger inserted into the rectum will stimulate his prostate gland. If you are going to do this, insert your middle finger and if he is facing you make a 'come hither' motion with the tip of your finger. If you're behind him, insert your finger and push down with the tip, then slide your finger in and out rubbing over the prostate. For anal play all body parts should be well lubricated. +If you use your tongue, the best technique is to harden your tongue and rub it against his anus. You can alternate between rubbing with a stiff tongue and flicking your tongue around the little bumps of his anus, also called rimming. You can insert your tongue and many people do this because it turns them or their partner on, the sensation is very pleasurable, however the tongue is not long enough (usually, but there are always exceptions) to stimulate the prostate. +Once you have paid attention to all the parts that arouse both of you, the only thing left is bringing your man to orgasm. You can literally pick any part of his genitals and stimulate only that part and he will climax. Which is what you want. And if you've spent a good five minutes playing with him and preventing his climax, he will be aroused enough to cum almost immediately. +Again, this is what you want in order for the most pleasure in penetrative sex. Young horny guys can climax twice, thrice even more before vaginal or anal sex. Of course you could just have vaginal or anal sex four times before he has enough staying power for you to climax. It really all depends on the individual. But older people will tell you, great sex begins with great foreplay. +A note on post orgasm torture: If you're new to the concept, do give it a try. It's not really torture although the BDSM community embrace it. After climaxing the genitals of both men and women are extremely sensitive. Especially the tip of the glans on both the penis and the clitoris. Torture is simply continuing to stimulate these areas after climax. To do this you would continue to lick or stroke the glans gently post climax. It shouldn't be called post climax torture, it should be called irresistible torture. The reaction of the lover receiving such delicious attention can be violent as they involuntarily try to twist the body part away. That's what appeals to the BDSM crowd because to really affect this torture the giver has to tie the receiver up or risk getting a kick or an elbow somewhere. Added to that, bondage is always performed on the submissive party, further increasing the control of the dominant partner." +112,Cock Suckers Club President,greeneyedkity913,How To,2005-04-07,2005-04-07,2022-01-04 08:26:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/cock-suckers-club-president,How to give the best head ever.,"['Cock Sucking', 'Couple Times', 'Deep Throating', 'Dick Mouth', 'Gag Reflex', 'Lay Legs', 'Porn Stars', 'Pull Back', 'Suck Cheeks', 'Tilt Head']",4.15,"Okay ladies we have all seen porn... you see the hot buxom blond chowing on some cock and you think... hey I should do that... STOP RIGHT THERE!! I am here to tell you that porn cock sucking no matter how good it looks is not the key... +Here's a little background... my fiancé had received oral sex before but he had never cum as a result... (Ladies this is the product of half-assed sucking), well all changed when I showed up... I consider blowjobs an art, and something I am very very good at... +Porn stars always make the same mistake... Shoving the tip of his cock in and out of your mouth while only grazing it with your lips will make him happy (but only because you are down there >grin<) but he is only enjoying friction; which quite frankly he is capable of doing his own damn self... no you required... +A Blowjob should be something entirely different from anything he is capable of recreating himself... +So first we are going to go over the don'ts... +1\. Don't just bob his nob, he could have jacked off just as easily +2\. Don't wrap your teeth with your lips (granny without dentures style) its gross +3\. Don't jack him off while kind of sucking on the tip +4\. Don't ignore the rest of him, we expect more than the 3 light stop why shouldn't they??? +5\. Try not to use your hands +6\. Try not to do it from a kneeling position (I'll explain later) +7\. Looking up at him while sucking his cock is uncomfortable for him and you, just don't, it's not really all that sexy +Okay let's start with #1 +Pistoning your head up and down isn't pleasing no matter what porn tells you there is more, much more to it, friction is good, but not good enough. He is completely capable of creating friction; odds are he did it within the first 10 minuets of waking up. Be worth more than that. +#2 the granny lip thing you see porn stars doing? all bad. What kind man wants to think of his toothless grandmother while being orally pleased??? Only the really sick ones...so don't. The average guy doesn't enjoy it. Besides men are simple creatures friction does the trick but he won't remember you ten years later. +#3 this one is just a cop out, giving a hand job while occasionally putting the tip in your mouth. That one right there is bad head 101, for starters if you don't want his dick in your mouth then don't put it in there, for seconds its lazy and doesn't get the job done, your hand and neck will get tired before he manages to cum. +#4 no woman enjoys the 3 light stop, making out moves on to some nipple abuse, leading to fucking... YAWN!! Since we ask our men to act like they've made it past puberty it's only fair that we behave the same... men have lots of what I call Ooh Zones, their necks, their stomachs, the obvious places, the Ooh spots are places that are forgotten. His inner elbow, his palms, his wrists, and the big one... ready... His hips!! Unless he is incorrigibly ticklish this will be the best way to arouse him beyond reason and it also gives you a chance to breath... +#5 using your hands is okay but I have found that if you try not to its better, often times I only use my hands to steady the cock, when your hands aren't busy holding a cock they could be busy elsewhere, like running your hand up his hips and stomach, grabbing his ass, etc... he needs as much attention as you do, the more places you can be at once the better. +#6 ah yes, the porn star #1 no no move. Being on your knees takes your control away making it so that you can only bob his nob and nothing else, it also makes it easier to gag, not to mention your neck gets tired and your feet fall asleep, I have found the best way is to have him lay on his back and spread em' you can lay down in between his legs and this position gives you all the room you need to move if you get uncomfortable. +#7 okay and here the last one, a lot of times you will see porn and the girl is giving the guy head... (Duh) and she stares at him while doing it... he is trying to concentrate on enjoying him self there is no reason to sit there and stare at him like a needy puppy, you don't need to look up to see if he likes it, pay attention to his body, if he arches his hips do what ever you did again, now I am not saying don't let him look, everyone likes to look sometimes, what I am saying is if your hair is longer you can tilt your head straight down and he can't see, and as a treat you can tilt your head back a little and let him see his dick fucking your face. +Okay now down to business: +Giving head is an experience you want him to remember. The most important thing is change it up, here are some techniques that help... keep in mind each guy varies and you have to vary with him +There are a combination of moves that work differently for every guy for example suck in your cheeks and make the fishy face... that is the move that gets them every time, the suction and release makes for great sound effects on his end J +Here is Head 101 +1\. Change it up, don't just stick with up and down, put as much as you can in and swirl your tongue around the top catching it just under the rim +2\. Turn your head from side to side like a confused Labrador; the switch in movement may just get him off. +3\. With his cock in your mouth stick your tongue out and pull it back in a couple of times, your tongue has a different texture than the rest of your mouth +4\. Make a fish face, suck your cheeks in like your going to make the fishy face and hold the suction for a couple of strokes, then release. +5\. Teasing seems to be a long forgotten art, hover with your mouth open just above his dick so he can feel the warmth and heat, give it a tiny lick but don't put it in, then leisurely lick his hips, run your lips over them then go back and put the whole thing in your mouth... That is almost always a home run +6\. Remember to keep up the consistent change, just because he likes one thing doesn't mean that is all you should do, get to know him and find the moves he likes and change up the order of them throughout your session +7\. Teeth... dun dun dun!! Most men would rather you stick your little finger up their ass then have you use teeth on their most valued member, the trick is how to do it... (If you have large, scary, or metal encased teeth this is not recommended) with his dick already in your mouth pull up slowly and lightly, LIGHTLY... graze it with your teeth on the way up, only on the way up though unless he says its okay, this move is great for those unfortunate guys who aren't that sensitive. Another one is to leave your jaw loose and pull up off his cock as you are doing so skim your teeth gently up the head to the tip enough to give pressure and a little tickling, NO BITING, unless its your worthless ex trying to score some... in which case... +8\. Lips, your lips move, so move them!! While his cock is in your mouth pucker like you are going to kiss and then release a couple of times do this going up or down his cock the little ringlets of pleasure will do wonders make sure to put a little more pressure on the under side, kind of like a massage with your lips. +And now the biggest secret of them all!! EVER!! +DEEP THROATING: +Not as hard as it sounds, and not as scary as it looks I assure you... its all about training and how sensitive your gag reflex is... like most things that are worth your while this will take a little adjustment if you can't do it right off the bat. +I don't have a gag reflex, or more accurately I ignore it. Much like anal you have to be prepared and relaxed. Its all in your head, start by laying him down spread eagle and lay between his legs, put his cock in as deep as you can without gagging, when you feel the need to gag just pull back, now relax don't think, just open your throat and exhale through your nose... oh and by the way, unless your sucking off Godzilla you should be able to breath through your nose. Just concentrate on relaxing also it is not reasonable to expect yourself to be able to do it repeatedly, a few long deep strokes and you can go back to teasing and pleasing with the other techniques, deep throating is a special move to get his blood pounding, not to mention the deep respect (pun intended) he will award you with when he returns the favor... you can practice before you have a live man to please. Try a Popsicle sticks or a pencil (eraser first) put it in your mouth, relax your throat and flatten your tongue and aim for the back of your throat, the more you practice the more you desensitize the 9th nerve, which by the way is what makes you gag. With effort and the want to do it, you can be the cock sucking pro in no time... +... So we have covered it all, from No Go's to Yes Pleases, remember varying the motion is almost a guaranteed cum shot and don't forget the Ooh zones, his hips and inner thighs are just as sensitive as yours...so go now and be the one all other will be compared to, and welcome to the CSC." +113,Combatting Clenching,lesliejones,How To,2008-05-27,2008-05-27,2022-01-04 08:26:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/combatting-clenching,How Mistresses ensure parted cheeks.,"['Anus', 'Bdsm How-To', 'Buttocks', 'Caning', 'Femdom How-To', 'Figging', 'Spanking']",4.21,"_To Dearest Lizbeth_ +* +Experienced disciplinarians are familiar with the behavior known as clenching. The person being spanked, caned, or paddled seeks to press his or her buttocks close together in a vain attempt to avoid the pain that is inevitably coming. The dominant finds clenching annoying because it may affect the accuracy of the cane or brush stroke. What's more, the attempt to diminish the impact of the blow is a clear sign of resistance. +There are many ways to deal with this offense—for resistance of any kind must be dealt with firmly by any disciplinarian. The most traditional, and the one preferred especially by teachers and mothers with naughty girls and boys—of whatever age—across their laps is to adjust the number of strokes that will be given. Each time the buttocks are clenched, the naughty one is told that that stroke did not count. +Some prefer to stamp out the resistance by stronger penalties. ""Every time you clench that naughty bottom,"" one woman says, ""you will get two more strokes added to your punishment."" If the sub who clenches is receiving a spanking, the proper response may be to warn him or her that further clenching will see the punishment stepped up to a caning, or if it is already a caning, then a larger and more severe cane will be used. +Others resort to the scary practice of warning the punishee that any clenching will not only mean the stroke does not count but that the count will return to one and thus the entire punishment will recommence. Some subs have trouble avoiding clenching as a natural reaction and this threat will put them horribly on edge because clever dominatrixes may stop after the penultimate stroke and wait, knowing that a nervous sub may clench, say after stroke 49 of an intended 50-stroke spanking, and thus earn another 50 spanks. +There are yet other imaginative ways to address this problem. Some clenching occurs because the girl or boy is afraid that the person punishing their buttocks is intending to aim between the crack and strike the pudendum or the scrotal sac. Thus they try to close the gap between their legs in a vain effort to avoid such hurtful contact. No disciplinarian who knows how to impose proper punishment would ever strike those parts without intending to do so and one would hope that they would proceed very very carefully because permanent injury is so possible an outcome. +But to take advantage of that fear, the disciplinarian might instruct the punishee to open his or her legs and then proceed to rub an ointment such as oil of wintergreen between the legs, including the man's scrotal sac or the woman's labia. This substance will produce a burning sensation that will not permit the recipient to keep his or her legs closed or to clench. Another similar tactic is to administer a disciplinary enema before punishment. The punishee is required to retain the enema and will focus entirely on controlling his or her anal opening. +I also know some mistresses who have devised a nice solution to the clenching problem. When they punish, they have the submissive stand in a set place where there are straps to fasten the feet into place at the appropriate distance so that it will not be possible for the man or woman so strapped in to move their feet or try to clench. +The most definitive technique probably is use of a leg spreader. The mistress attaches a bar by straps to each calf and positions it between the legs so that clenching or closing the legs is completely impossible. This technique also is quite helpful in applying the pain-pleasure type of discipline that finds the use of a martinet on the bottom, with an occasional strand hitting between the legs, alternated with teasing of the parts between the legs with a feather. +But the classic means of both preventing and stopping clenching during discipline is use of the process of figging. This practice, which was first used with performing animals, consists of insertion of a peeled ginger root rod into the anal opening. The oils will begin slowly to affect the inner lining of the anus and prevent the subject from clenching his or her buttocks. Optimally, the ginger is carved into the shape of a buttplug. +Some writers have mentioned an even more severe practice they have labeled double figging, in which a ginger root is sculpted to fit into the vaginal opening as well as touch the clitoris. This results in exceedingly strong stimulation in both a woman's orifices and will cause some agony as well as prevent her from closing her legs during punishment. +The mere threat of figging also inspires good behavior. Some headmistresses were known for figging all pupils who were to undergo punishment so that there would be no possibility of clenching disturbing the administration of the discipline. In these schools, teachers would prepare the misbehaving pupil to see the headmistress by making the pupil lower her panties or his shorts and bend over, spreading the cheeks, so that the teacher might insert the humiliating and soon-to-be-painful fig. +The last method to be discussed here is merely a delay in punishment each time a punishee offends the disciplinarian by clenching. One young stepmother told her new stepson that she insisted on always ""parting the cheeks"" when punishing him. She would instruct him to spread his legs and keep them apart. Whenever he disobeyed her instructions, she calmly told him that the stroke of the cane she had just administered would not count. She reported that this improved his attention to her orders. +The imaginative disciplinarian thus has quite a few methods with which to combat clenching. Indeed, this brief survey indicates how much thought and cogitation has characterized the disciplinary regime over many years." +114,The Coming Metalocalypse,Sean Renaud,How To,2010-01-13,2010-01-13,2022-01-04 08:39:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-coming-metalocalypse,When the robots attack (or any other emergency) you best be prepared.,"['Guide', 'Robots', 'Survival', 'Survival Guide', 'Surviving']",3.7,"Let's be perfectly honest with ourselves. Over twenty years ago a man, a prophet, a technopath if you will had a dream of how humanity would end. What started with the automation of factories would continue until we had managed to foolishly make ourselves completely obsolete. Since that time there have been other prophets, other's who've seen glimpses of our futures and it's always bleak. Somehow we defy all logic and win but most of these are fairy tail victories that we shouldn't be counting on. We'll start with survival both things you should have set up in advance and things you should be considering for the future. +The advance planning for a Metalocalypse is the same as planning for any other disaster. Which means that if you don't have these things already you should be gathering them. Whether the disaster takes the form of a robot take over of the earth, alien invasion or something mundane like say an earthquake, hurricane or being snowed in it never hurts to have a few gallons of water at the house encase for whatever reason the pipes aren't delivering clean safe drinking water. The same goes for food. Every time you go shopping you should buy up just one of two cans of something that won't go bad and store in the back of a closet somewhere. I personally recommend doubling or tripling down as I have supplies in my house, office and car. I recommend emergency blankets and ponchos as well. You can't depend on the weather to hold and as bad as being shot by a robot would be it would be worse if the Resistance were killed by a cold snap. I'm not going to list everything just what I view to be the vitals. +2 Gallons of water. +3 days worth of food. +Flashlight with extra batteries (I recommend Mag Lights as they double as clubs, hammers and whatever other use you can find for a heavy metal pole) +Pocket Knife +Blanket +These things aren't enough to launch a resistance with, but they are hopefully enough to keep you alive long enough to find said resistance. You and your friends and family would also be wise to have a location, ideally central that you will meet at in the case of an emergency. Remember it is possible that when the robots take over they will cancel our cell phone contracts and still charge us early termination fees on top of that. What this means is that you need to know right now where you are going to meet your wife, mother, friends because you might not be able to arrange it later. I should stress again that even more mundane disasters can destroy repeater towers and knock down phone lines. If you can't find each other then you have a chance. +A Metalocalypse has some unique features to it that set it aside from other disasters. One is that our enemy is intelligent and is actively hunting us down. What this means is that while your first instinct may be to run out into the forest and hope that somehow being off the grid will help it won't. It's much better to stay in the cities where there are tools to use against our enemies and more importantly they will be less inclined to simply carpet bomb the suspected area. +If we are on the offense, or are given a chance we want to take out their power supplies at any costs. The fact is that until we invent robots that can run on beef we've got an advantage. Even solar powered robots would be unable to pursue us without resting to refill, unless you live in the Gobi, then you're just screwed. +Now we should talk about combat tactics. Stay hidden and focus your energy, initially not on destroying the machine but on disarming it. Unlike in the movies where the robots seem to have attended Storm Trooper Shooting School in real life a robot would probably never miss the same target twice. Unlike humans who are unable to visually track their bullets, and have problems like beating hearts and breathing that make each shot slightly different from the one before it robots have no such limitations. They can be as accurate as their weapon is. Running in erratic patterns may confuse their targeting system but I wouldn't trust it in the long term only in desperate situations. The point here is that you must get the guns out of their hands and not necessarily into yours. +As we've learned over twenty years of intense research bullets don't much bother robots. Hell they don't stop modern day tanks and can be stopped reasonably well by many already extant types of human body armor. I would recommend destroying small arms when possible as they can only be effectively used against us. Larger arms of course you want to collect, anything that can kill one you want to keep. +Returning to combat, in the movies they always show the robots as being clearly superior to us in unarmed situations. This however is a fallacy. If we are dealing with light weight robots which is unlikely it may be possible to destroy them by shoving them. More likely though we are talking about five hundred plus pounds of solid steel and that's where the one hundred sixty pound human has some advantages, many of which we would actively seek to improve upon. That fact is that five hundred pounds will break lots of things. Me personally? I'm heading to Louisiana when it happens. I figure there is ample swamp out there to always keep one nearby and robots sink in mud. They also will likely be unable to swim. +Now that we've survived the initial attacks and learned a little bit of what to do if we find ourselves in combat lets talk about what not to do. Don't gather in groups in excess of thirty for any length of time. Minimize the number of people who know where others are hiding. This is all for your safety because the less people who know where to find you the less people can give you away if they are captured and tortured. +Another important thing is to make certain that you both have multiple safe houses and that you never take the same route twice. It doesn't matter where exactly you turn off to make things different each time. What is important is that you cannot be ambushed because nobody is certain where you are going or what direction you will be coming from. It won't keep you safe forever but it will keep you safe for a time. +The final thing that you will absolutely require if you are to survive long enough for a solution to work its way out is a reliable way of communicating with other survivors. Without this you will not be able to get the supplies you need to stay alive, you won't be able to stay a step a head and when the time comes you won't be able to launch an offensive. Unfortunately I'm still working on developing a code that the machines can't crack. The best I've come up with so far is using a rotating system of slang terminology. +Sadly this is all of the knowledge that I have to give you about how to survive the coming Metalocalypse. I hope that it is enough to get enough people through the worst of it, the initial strikes that mankind will be able to survive." +115,Common Errors,velvetpie,How To,2005-02-13,2005-02-22,2022-01-04 08:27:00,6,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/common-errors-ch-01,1.

Some examples are: _I **have laid** the keys on the table_ or _He **lays** his life on the line every day_. + **LIE** is a verb that also describes an action but it doesn’t require an item to be used with it.

Some examples are: _He **lay** back on the bed_ or _I **am lying** on the couch right now_. + **COMPLEMENT / COMPLIMENT** + **COMPLEMENT** is a verb that usually means match, as in _The green in the dress **complemented** the green in her eyes_ or _Her street smarts **complement** his book smarts_. + **COMPLIMENT** is a noun or verb that means kind words that is given to someone. Some examples are: _I **complimented** the chef on his use of apricots_ or _Her **compliments** made him feel good_. + **QUEUE / CUE** + **QUEUE** is a noun or a verb that means a line, as in one that you stand in, or the action of standing in a line. Some examples are: _We **queued** up for concert tickets_ or _I froze my ass off while standing in the **queue**_. + **CUE** is a noun or a verb that means a specific action or the action of receiving that specific action. Some examples are: _When I gave the **cue** , everyone sang, “Happy Birthday!”_ or _I **cued** up the song so that it would be ready after the speech_. Please also know that the white ball used in billiards is known as the ‘CUE’ ball. + **ACCEPT / EXCEPT** + **ACCEPT** is a noun or a verb that means to get or receive something. Some examples are: _I will **accept** the nomination_ or _He **accepted** the fact that his life was ruined_. + **EXCEPT** is a preposition or a verb that means to exclude. Some examples are: _I want all of the tomatoes **except** the green ones_ or _She was **excepted** from the rest of the group_. + **DYEING / DYING** + **DYEING** is a noun or a verb that means to add color to something. A few examples: _The **dyeing** of the eggs is our favorite thing to do during Easter_ or _She is **dyeing** my pants to match the shirt_. + **DYING** is a noun or a verb that means to be nearing death or feeling as if a person or thing is nearing death. Some examples: _When she told him she was cheating, he felt like he was **dying** or _His **dying** on the bed made her not want to sleep on it_. The last example sounds very clumsy and though I have seen it used, I don’t think I would use it. _ + +" +116,Complete NaNoWriMo,oggbashan,How To,2007-05-04,2007-05-04,2022-01-04 08:27:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/complete-nanowrimo,How to complete NaNoWriMo and help you as a writer.,"['Month', 'Nanowrimo', 'National', 'Novel', 'Writing']",4.73,"* * * * * + _Copyright Oggbashan May 2007_ +The author asserts the moral right to be identified as the author of this work. +* * * * * +Anyone can ""win"" NaNoWriMo -- The National Novel Writing Month -where aspiring writers try to complete 50,000 words in a month. +All a prospective author has to do is submit 50,000 words to NaNoWriMo's checking software. There is no way to tell if those words were written by the author, were written in the month, or were just copied and pasted from elsewhere. +The only person who knows whether the author actually succeeded at the task of writing 50,000 words is the author. If the author cheated, they have cheated themselves. +WHY TRY? +So why do it? Why try to complete the NaNoWriMo task? Why drive yourself to a daily chore of writing one thousand six hundred and sixty seven words a day? +The only reason to contend for a winner's certificate from NaNoWriMo is to convince oneself that you can write consistently come rain or shine, inspiration or lack of inspiration and anything that family and friends can throw at you. It proves that you have a professional approach to your writing. If you want to succeed as a writer, the NaNoWriMo trial is a simple test of self-discipline. +HELP IS THERE +There are helpful techniques for completing the NaNoWriMo challenge. Their website has many hints from successful contestants. Support from family, friends and writing colleagues will aid your task. The Literotica Author's Hangout usually has a support thread started before NaNoWriMo to encourage authors to enter, and to cheer on those who start writing. +WORD COUNTS +The simplest aid is a word count, provided by NaNoWriMo. If you are writing a minimum of 1,667 words each day you are on target and will succeed IF nothing happens. If the In-laws descend for a weekend, or the cat gets sick, or any of the minor disasters that are part of daily living occur -- you will miss a day, and retrieving that missing 1,667 will be difficult. It is better to set a higher daily target, say 2,000 words a day. If you miss a day, the multiple of the extra 333 words will help get you back on course. +WHAT TO WRITE? +Despite the title of the contest, 50,000 words aren't the length of a novel. Writing 50,000 words in a month only proves that you can write 50,000 words in a month. It doesn't prove that you can write a novel. It proves that you have the application to write consistently. A novel might take you six months at the NaNoWriMo rate of 50,000 words a month and then there is the editing... +You could outline a novel in 50,000 words, producing a synopsis and several chapters. That might be enough to submit to an agent or publisher as a proposal, once you have tidied it up. So you could start on the way to becoming a published author through NaNoWriMo. +You could write down all those plot ideas that have been buzzing around in your head for months, including some scraps of each story. Beware that you don't run out of inspiration in the second week when NaNoWriMo fatigue sets in. +You could just write stream-of-consciousness ideas to be reviewed after NaNoWriMo. One year's NaNoWriMo could provide material for the stories you are going to write in the next year. +You could write a detailed diary, with flashbacks, that practices your descriptive skills. Who did you meet today? How did you interact with them? Can you describe them and what their personality is like? Could they be the villain or hero of your next story? +PLAN AHEAD +Whatever you intend to write during NaNoWriMo it will be easier if you have made a plan. +The first part of the plan needs to cover how you will find the time and place to write, what of your normal activities have to be stopped or postponed to provide that time, what the impact of your writing time will be on others, and whether you have their support. +The second part should cover what you intend to write. NaNoWriMo will be easier if you have too many ideas. There is nothing to say that you have to stop writing at the end of 50,000 words, or at the end of the month. You can successfully complete NaNoWriMo and keep writing. If you have too few ideas, or the story you had planned grinds to a halt, keep writing. NaNoWriMo doesn't require a complete story or completed plan. You could submit 30 short stories, one for each day, and still win. You could have written the first five chapters of the Great Novel. As long as those chapters come to 50,000 words, you will have succeeded at NaNoWriMo. +GOOD LUCK +I hope that you are encouraged to attempt the NaNoWriMo challenge. If nothing else, it will prove to you that you can write to a targeted output. If you use NaNoWriMo to develop yourself as a writer then you will have succeeded twice. The certificate is nice but the real winning is the increased confidence in yourself as a writer. +Og +PS. This How-To is about 850 words long. I wrote it in about an hour. Another hour at that rate and I would be on target to complete a NaNoWriMo." +117,Condom Use,FriskyVirgin,How To,2007-05-19,2007-05-19,2022-01-04 08:27:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/condom-use,The ins and outs of condom usage.,"['Birth Control', 'Condom', 'Condom How-To', 'Contraception', 'Contraceptive', 'Sex Advice']",4.22,"Here is some information for dummies like myself about one of the most important things involved in sex -- a condom! +What is a condom? +Condoms are sheaths of thin latex or plastic worn on the penis during intercourse. And they are available dry or lubricated. Sometimes they are called rubbers, gloves, safes, or jimmies. They reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infection. They are also effective over-the-counter, barrier methods of reversible birth control. +How do condoms work? +Condoms collect semen before, during, and after a man ejaculates (""comes""/ cums). This can keep sperm from entering the vagina. +Condoms are so effective at preventing pregnancy and disease transmission that they've take up permanent residence in bedside tables and wallets across the world. They're easy to obtain and easy to put on. Keep in mind that most condoms don't break because they're defective, but because they're used incorrectly. So whether you're new to condom use or have had a problem with breakage, brush up on these tips for putting on a condom correctly. +Handle condoms gently. Store them in a cool, dry place. Long exposure to air, heat, and light makes them more breakable. Do not stash them continually in a back pocket, wallet, or glove compartment. +Lubricate the inside and outside of the condom. (Many condoms are pre- lubricated.) +Lubrication helps prevent rips and tears, and it increases sensitivity. Use water-based lubricants, such as K-Y jelly or AstroGlide, or silicone-based lubricants, such as Eros, with latex condoms. Oil-based lubricants like petroleum jelly, cold cream, butter, or mineral and vegetable oils damage latex. +Remember — Practice Makes Perfect. +Put the condom on before the penis touches the vulva. Men leak fluids from their penises before and after ejaculation. Pre-ejaculate (""pre-cum"") can carry enough sperm to cause pregnancy. +The Steps To Putting A Condom On Right! +1\. Look on the condom package for the expiration date. If the date has passed, use a fresh condom. Also, don't use condoms that are brittle or have been exposed to heat or sun. +2\. Take care opening the package, as fingernails and teeth can rip the condom. Tear open the package from the corner with your fingers. +3\. Wait till the penis is erect before putting on a condom. +4\. Check to see which way the condom unrolls, and put a couple of drops of lube on the surface that will be touching the penis. Centre it over the penis so that it will unroll properly (think of how a carpet unrolls). +5\. Pinch the small pucker in the middle of the disk of the rolled up condom. Squeeze it shut to prevent air bubbles, and hang onto the top inch of the condom while you place the condom on the head of the penis. If the penis is uncircumcised, pull the foreskin back. Once the shaft is covered, push the foreskin forward (toward the tip). This lets the foreskin move without breaking the condom. +6\. Unroll the condom down the shaft, squeezing the air out as you go. Air bubbles are a common cause of condom breakage. Be sure to cover the whole length of the shaft to prevent semen from leaking out. +7\. Often the condom will turn out to be longer than the penis you are putting it on. That leaves a ring of rolled up latex at the base of the penis that does not stretch as easily as unrolled latex, and can constrict the penis. When guys say that all the condoms they have tried are too small for them, many times this problem is what they are referring to. If you scoot the condom up along the shaft and unroll it completely at the base, you can then scootch it back down so it's more like a scrunched-up sock than a hard rubber ring, and thus is less restrictive. +How to safely take off a condom +• Pull out before the penis softens. +• Don't spill the semen — hold the condom against the base of the penis while you pull out. +• Throw the condom away. +• Wash the penis with soap and water before embracing again. +If you are like me and embarrassed to go out and buy condoms and lube or anything and some young kid or someone older, do what I do. Go to a store where you can use the checkout operator yourself. Department stores have created checkout operators where you do everything yourself. From an ex- checkout chick, if you happen to get a security sticker (one that is like a barcode but doesn't scan), rub it on the scanner. This saves you total embarrassment as you are exiting the store and the beeps go off. Or go onto adult websites. Use only authenticated ones that have the https: url at the beginning and a gold padlock at the very bottom of the page." +118,Contract of Submission,dcuplver,How To,2011-10-26,2011-10-26,2022-01-04 08:27:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/contract-of-submission,A first timer's guide to training a submissive wife.,"['Ass', 'Demeaning', 'Obey', 'Pain', 'Restrain', 'Submission', 'Submit']",4.43,"Perhaps the greatest hurdle that women face in enjoying sex is overcoming society's imprint on their psyche. At a young age, they are often trained that sex is dirty, offensive and best left to be performed on an ""as needed basis"". Even as women grow, mature, and become more comfortable with their sexual needs, it can still be difficult to erase society's fingerprints from their minds. Add to that a woman's innate desire to please and the situation can become even more complicated. She wants to please her lover, but society has taught her that many things he wants are ""unladylike"". Also add in a woman's natural tendency to worry about events far outside of the bedroom and intimacy becomes even more complicated. Men can easily lie on the bed and immediately give full attention to sexual activities. Most women, however, find it difficult to shut of their work day, parental duties, and other commitments. So even as women become comfortable with giving and receiving pleasure, it can be difficult to shut out the world and let her juices flow. +One way to assist a female lover in overcoming all the mental noise she hears in the bedroom is to develop a scenario of submission. If a woman feels that her sexual desires are not under her command and that her full attention is required in the bedroom, she can be freed to focus on the matters at hand. Under her lover's command she is free to experience acts that she enjoys, but is unwilling or reluctant to ask for. +My wife is one such woman. She will do anything I ask in private, but she is often tentative in asking for her own desires to be met. She is interested in anal sex and is also excited by mild discipline and submission. While she may not easily ask for these activities, she thoroughly enjoys them. I developed the following ""contract"" to help her release her inhibitions. After signing this, she now feels free to experience all the aspects of sex that she enjoys and any guilt or apprehension is set aside under the auspices that I am ""making her do these things"". This new ""contract"" has been going so well that I thought I would share it with other readers. Feel free to use and modify it for your own needs. +Contract of Submission +I, ________________, do willingly agree to submit to my husband's will within the confines of our bedroom. Additionally, I will submit to his will in any location where intimate activities take place. I willingly give him possession of my mouth, breasts, pussy, ass and any other portions of my body that he desires. +By submitting to his will, I agree to give him free reign to use my body as he wishes. He may use whatever toys or devices he deems appropriate to bring me pleasure or pain. He may insert his manhood into whatever orifice he desires for as long as he likes. He may restrain me or use reasonable force to achieve his sexual satisfaction. I agree to perform any sexual act that will please him and assume any position that he desires. I will perform these acts for as long as I am physically able. He may also refer to me as a ""slut"", ""fuck toy"", or any other demeaning name and I will only respond with increased enthusiasm. I will also wear any costumes, jewelry, or lingerie that he provides for me. +I also agree to pleasure myself for his enjoyment. At his command, I will fondle my breasts, tug my nipples, stroke my pussy, and penetrate my ass and pussy with objects of his choosing. I will continue these activities until he tells me otherwise or I achieve an orgasm that he deems satisfactorily loud. +In exchange for my submission, I will receive amnesty from any feeling of guilt or apprehension that I may feel when performing for my husband. The acts that I perform and any resulting pleasure it may bring me are under my husband's control. I will not be held emotionally liable or responsible for the slutty, naughty, demeaning acts that my husband requires or demands me to perform. I also will not need to concern myself if I am performing an act correctly. I will be doing as he asks and therefore I will know that I am doing it correctly. +Also, in exchange for my submission, I will receive sexual pleasure provided by my husband or by my own hand at his request. I will receive this gift without guilt or remorse because it will be provided at my husband's desire. I do have the right to ask my husband to pleasure me, but I must respectfully address him as ""Sir"" when I ask. +I am my husband's wife and I live to please him. This contract of submission frees me to act as my husband's pleasure toy in private and outside the bedroom I will remain a dignified, free thinking woman. +_________________________________ +Signature +_________________________________ +Date" +119,Contracts - Get One!,psychiclover,How To,2015-04-14,2015-04-14,2022-01-04 08:27:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/contracts-get-one,Information on BDSM contracts and why they are needed.,"['Bdsm', 'Bondage', 'Contracts', 'Master', 'Mistress', 'Protection', 'Safety', 'Slave', 'Submissive']",3.44,"If you are reading this you are interested in a pursuing a BDSM Relationship. This article is about one of the most basic things that should be considered before deciding to get into the lifestyle. Yes, you saw it right lifestyle, not just kinky once in awhile sex. So there are greater expectations here. Making a contract is something you most definitely should consider with a long term partner. In fact, it is my belief that a contract is a cornerstone to a safe, effective, responsible, and fulfilling experience. This article is just about your basic information to get you started. +What is a Contract? Simply put a contract outlines everything expected between two people and formalizes the agreement. There are two types of contracts most often associated with this lifestyle: Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and BDSM Contract. For the purposes of this article I will focus on the BDSM Contract, although I will briefly share with you the differences between the two. The NDA is formally drafted by a legal attorney, signed by all parties and is legally enforceable. The primary purpose of one is to basically keep what happens behind closed doors during training or sexual activity private, as it is embarrassing or potentially damaging to one or either party. For breaking this agreement you can, and probably will be sued in civil court. If someone has you sign one of these they mean business, do not talk about what you do to any one. In contrast the BDSM contract is NOT legally enforceable, and is a separate set of documents entirely. +So if a BDSM contract is not legal, why have one? It may seem absurd to some people who have already been into the lifestyle for a long time. I absolutely feel that a contract is necessary for those that are more than just late night, one time, or casual kinksters. This is about laying out in words exactly what is and is not expected physically and behaviorally, the balance of power, guidelines, and responsibilities. +The first and most important thing a contract does is that it formalizes the agreement between Dominant and submissive for a certain length of time. The submissive signs over his or her body and shows their willingness to be used for the pleasure of the Dominant. The intent to submit to direction is the single greatest prize of the relationship, and this part of the contract ensures that ownership is maintained as long as certain guidelines ( mostly concerning safety) are followed during the contract. The length of the contract is determined before it is signed. I recommend shorter ones that can be renewed, say yearly or every two years. +The next thing a contract does is set boundaries. Whether you live with your Dominant or not there are boundaries that need to be set so that you know when you are and are not expected to fulfill your role. Again, this is not just sexual, but includes things such as free time and work. To some Dominants such as myself, you are always property; however, you serve us in your other life by being the best you can be. To yet others you will always do as they command. I allow some free time, as this is the reward for pleasing me. It can be revoked as a punishment. It also sets boundaries to what activities are and are not going to happen. Those activities that are ok, fetishes (probably rewards), soft-line no's (sometime no's or work up to it activity), and hard- line no's (never gonna happen) are all spelled out so that no lines are crossed during training. (I will talk about these in greater detail in another article). +A contract is useful for setting expectations and guidelines for behavior, activities, or appearance/ attire. Behavior is not just in the bedroom, but also in the presence of the Dominant in the streets. It is where you work. It is how you dress. It is the food you make. The way you prepare the Dom's tea or her clothes in the morning. It is the way you are to write your submissive journal, or check in. It is everything you are asked to do, say, etc. I require at minimum that all my pets check in with me daily to pay their respects, and that they ask permission before they touch themselves. Now your contract doesn't have to be this specific, but it might just be depending on your level of commitment. Without outing what is good and what is bad, how can they receive what they are due? +That bring us to what contracts outlines next: Rewards & Punishments. Rewards are those things outlined in the contract that are given out for good behavior. These are privileges such as free time, orgasms, shopping trips, a pair of Mistress's panties to keep, choice of dinners etc. Punishments are those things that are set aside for poor behavior. These things are whippings, humiliations, taking of cellphones, denial of orgasms, revoking of driving privileges, forced activities etc. Sometimes depending on the Dom these can get rather brutal depending on the infraction. Personally, I never cross the line of safety, but rewards and punishments are a very effective mental tool for controlling a submissive. +One final word about safety. All that you do should be outlined in the contract starting from who buys/ maintains the equipment to what your safe words are. Accidents happen, and crossing the line once in a scene means that the scene- and your whole evening is over. As a sub they then have the right to decide whether or not to continue being your sub. Remember, submission is about being willing to be used. That is why putting your hard-lines into a contract, and making sure safety protocols are followed are so vital. Most if not all BDSM activities have an element of danger in them, and THAT is why we like doing them. But there is a right and a wrong way to doing them. If you don't know what you are doing, or you don't know what you want, ask your Dom before you sign your contract. Take your time and research what you do and do not want sexually, as well as what you do and do not want in a contract. Remember, even though it is not legally binding you do not want to upset your Dom by walking out on your contract. They may just know someone that you want to be your next Dom... +***** + _Please note. I appreciate comments but if you cannot post your name on it, then do not post it at all.

Carne guisada for a crowd. 2. Red beans and rice and etouffee. 3. Two quick and easy meals that will impress!,"['Beans', 'Carne Guisada', 'Food', 'Homemade Yummies', 'Mexican Rice', 'Roasted Salsa', 'Tomato Salsa', 'Tortillas']",4.67,"I've never really been one to make a huge pot of stew and have it sitting in my fridge for a week. If I'm going to cook a lot of food for a large party of guests, though, I do like to go all out. For the purpose of this little How- To, I'm going to walk you through the makings of an entire Tex-Mex meal. Note that I said Tex-Mex, not Mexican. I do not live in Mexico and therefore, I do not cook Mexican food. The differences between the cuisines will have to be left for another time. +Before we start, what is carne guisada? Carne guisada, for me, is a thick, meaty stew-like concoction with enough heat to knock your socks off if you're not careful. It's best served with a side of rice and beans of some sort with a big pile of warm, homemade tortillas to sop up all the juices. +Now that you're ready to embark on this adventure, you need to make a list and run to the store to get a few things. I prefer getting my meat from a trusty meat market, but if you don't have one nearby just grab it from the meat section of your local supermarket. You'll want to get as much of the prep work done the day before you have a large group of people wandering through your house looking for food. This takes HOURS to cook, so be warned. +Figure out how many people you're going to be feeding and then head off to the store with this list (can be halved): + **For Carne Guisada:** 2 serrano peppers 2 jalapeno peppers 1 onion (yellow or white, doesn't matter) 1 head of garlic (you'll need 5 cloves) 4 lbs chuck roast (if your supermarket offers cut up stew meat, make it easy on yourself and buy that instead of the whole roast. if you're buying the roast, bone out is best for this application) 1 T cumin 1 T chili powder 1 t oregano ¼ c cilantro (adjust this to your taste, I only use about a tablespoon. And for the love of little green men, use fresh!) 1 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes, or 3 fresh tomatoes, diced bay leaves a bottle of dark Mexican beer, or other dark beer (I prefer to use Shiner Bock, but it's difficult to get outside of Texas) Some flour or other thickening agent (potato starch, corn starch, arrowroot, something like that) + **For Beans:** 1 lb pinto beans onion chicken, or other, stock smoked ham hocks, bacon, or salt pork seasonings to your taste + **For Rice:** 1 - 1 ½ c rice (long grain white, basmati, jasmine, etc) 1 can tomato sauce 1 red bell pepper about a quarter to half an onion _Note: I like to add some corn and peas to my rice, but that's because it adds a little bit more nutrition to it. Add what you want._ + **Preparation** +If your supermarket does not offer stew meat, which is basically cut up chuck roast, grab a 4 pound roast with NO BONE. I stress this because if you get it with the bone in it, you're going to have to remove the bone as you cut the meat up and that's just a pain in the ass. If you like deboning meat then go right ahead. +Anywho, take your slab o' meat and cut it down to about 1-inch cubes. It is ok to not have exactly 1-inch cubes of meat. Set those aside until you're ready to cook them. If you're going to cook them immediately, keep them out. If you're going to cook them tomorrow, put them in a ziploc in the fridge. If you're going to cook them next Thursday, put them in a ziploc and get as much of the air out as possible and stick them in a freezer. If you froze them, pull them out a full day before you are planning to cook and put them in the fridge to thaw. + **Cooking** +Now that you have your meat all cut up you're ready to cook. +Get out a big pot or a dutch oven. For this amount I use a 7 qt enameled cast- iron dutch oven and it fits just fine. Get that bad boy heating up on your stove with a couple tablespoons of oil in it. The oil doesn't matter (I use olive oil), use what you've got. +When it's hot, brown the meat on all sides. You will more than likely have to do this in batches. As the meat browns, chop the peppers and onion and get them ready. Mince your garlic and put it somewhere separate. +Remove the meat and set it aside. This is where I make a roux in the bottom of the pan. If you're not using flour to thicken things, you can skip this and add a slurry of starch or throw some arrowroot powder into it later. If you're using flour, you're going to want about ¼ cup of light roux. Get it smooth and let it cook for about 5 minutes. It doesn't have to be dark, but you don't want the raw flour taste because that's not good eats to anyone. +When the roux is done, throw in your vegetables. It's going to look disgusting, but just go with it. Stir it CONSTANTLY for a good 5 to 10 minutes. You don't have to break your arm, just keep it moving so nothing burns. Once the vegetables have softened a bit, throw in your garlic and cook it for another minute or so. Throw the meat, tomatoes, spices, cilantro, a couple bay leaves, beer, and 2 cups of water into the pot and mix it really well. Bring the whole thing to a boil and then turn the heat down to a simmer and cook it for 5 hours, stirring occasionally. If you're cooking beans with this, this would be a good time to get those going. + ** _The Beans_** + _Author's Note: This is my method of making beans. If you already have a good savory bean recipe, use that. I do not soak my beans overnight, nor do I salt them until the very end._ +Sort your beans and take out anything that's not a bean. Soak them overnight if you must, but I don't. It's seriously not necessary. +Get out another large pot and a 32 oz package of chicken broth. Yes, you can use bouillon and water. It's the same thing. Start the stock warming on the stove and get your veggies ready. I roughly chop an onion, a couple of jalapenos, and some parsley or cilantro if I have it. Since you just put carne guisada on the stove, you've got cilantro. Throw all of that in with the stock and add your beans. Throw in any spices (I add cumin, black pepper, and a very small amount of powdered habanero) you like EXCEPT SALT. If you salt your beans right now they can turn out hard later and that's no bueno. +Here's where I vary depending on what I'm making. If I'm making refried beans, I add smoked ham hocks. If I'm making a pot of beans for my dad to enjoy, I add salt pork or bacon. If I'm making borracho or charro beans, I add bacon. Do what you want, but know that if you're making refried beans you're going to have to pull the beans out later without as much of the chunky stuff. An alternative with the bacon is to cook it in a pan with some onions and peppers and then puree that in a blender or food processor and add it to the cooking beans. +If you're adding salt pork, then score the rind and toss it in. If you're using bacon, cut it into pieces and throw it in. If you're using ham hocks (for the love of little green men, use smoked!) just toss them in. +Bring this to a boil for at least an hour if you didn't soak your beans. If you soaked your beans, bring it to a boil and then reduce that to a simmer for several hours. I cook mine the same amount of time as the carne guisada. Stir them occasionally and add water if the liquid gets too low. + _If you are making refried beans:_ +Using a slotted spoon, scoop as many of the beans into a hot cast-iron skillet as you can. Then use a potato masher to smash them all to hell. Stir them and add a little of the bean liquid to make them smooth out. If you used ham hocks, make sure not to get too many big chunks of the meat. Small chunks are fine as they'll fall apart and mash just fine. Careful of the bones! When the beans are the consistency you like, turn off the heat and serve. + _ **The Tortillas**_ +You will need: +2 ½ c all purpose flour (you can do this with whole wheat as well, or half all-purpose and half whole wheat) 2 ½ t baking powder 1 t salt ½ c lard or shortening PLUS 2 T 1 c hot water (HOT, not boiling) +In a mixing bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and salt and stir it to combine. Cut in the lard or shortening with a pastry cutter - it will cut in very easily - until the chunks are pea-sized. +Mix in the water until a dough forms. IT WILL BE STICKY. Knead the dough in the bowl (I turn the dough over and rotate the bowl to knead, no need to dirty a counter for this) until it's less sticky. Your hand will be mostly clean when the dough is ready, and it will have cleaned the sides of the bowl. If it seems to be extremely sticky, add in more flour a tablespoon at a time. +Now cover it and let it sit for an hour. Go run a load of laundry all the way through. The dough will not rise, it just needs to rest. +Go and pull off chunks of the dough and make dough balls. I generally make about a dozen and a half tortillas out of one batch, and those are big fluffy tortillas. If you prefer smaller, thinner tortillas, make more balls. Place the balls on some parchment paper, cover, and let rest for another half hour or so. +Now's where it gets messy. On a well floured surface with a well floured rolling pin, roll the dough balls into something that resembles a tortilla. If you prefer thinner tortillas, here's where you want to roll them out really thin. If you like big fluffy tortillas, don't roll them out so thin. Don't be discouraged if they come out looking like an amoeba, you'll get better at making circles with practice. The key is to lift the dough and rotate it fairly often. If you're used to rolling out circles of dough, this should be a cinch. +Heat a pan on the stove til it's hot. You're going to be cooking these on a dry skillet. I have a flat cast-iron pan I use to cook my tortillas. Slap the tortilla onto the hot surface and watch in wonder as it bubbles. Flip it and cook the other side. You're going for a nice golden to dark brown color where the dough bubbled, not black. If your pan isn't hot enough, the tortilla will still cook but it will be pale. These are called ""tester tortillas"" and are meant to be eaten by the cook as a way to sustain their energy as they stand over a hot stove cooking tortillas. You'll get the hang of it and your tortillas will be fine. It's hard to ruin them, really, unless you burn it. Everybody burns at least one, it's no big deal. +Put your cooked tortillas into a tortilla warmer (with a paper towel to catch the steam so they don't get soggy) or place them on a tea towel and fold it over. Serve warm with... everything. +Note that once you feed your family or friends fresh homemade tortillas, those flavorless circles of cardboard you can buy in the store will not compare. +I have made the dough up to three days in advance and kept it in the fridge. It's handy when you only need a few tortillas at a time but don't want to cook the whole batch at once. I have not frozen the dough, so I don't know what would happen if you tried it. + **The Rice** + _Author's Note: This is my method of cooking Mexican rice. It may not be your method, or you may just not like Mexican rice. I prefer to serve rice with my carne guisada as it tames some of the heat and I just like rice._ +1 to 1 ½ c white rice 1 can tomato sauce ¼ c chopped onion 1 chopped red bell pepper ¼ cup corn (optional, for those of you out there that like more than rice in your rice) ¼ c peas (optional, for those of you out there trying to force more veggies down your family's throat... like me) Some chicken stock, I eyeball this, so I don't have a measurement for you type-A's out there. I'd guess about a cup. Salt to taste +In a skillet, toast the rice with a tablespoon or so of oil. Olive oil, vegetable oil, fancy-pants safflower oil, doesn't matter. +When the rice starts turning a toasty color and smells... toasty, add in the tomato sauce and the veggies. Stir it around so the rice is nice and coated in the tomato sauce, add enough chicken stock (yes, you can add water but come on! Chicken stock has so much more flavor!) to cover the rice and bring it to a simmer. Cook about 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked. Yes, you will have to taste it. + ** _Bonus Salsa Recipes_** + **Roasted Pepper Salsa** +2 poblano peppers 1 serrano pepper 1 jalapeno pepper 2-3 tomatillos ½ an onion juice of 1-2 limes salt to taste +Preheat your broiler.* +Cut the stems off the peppers, slice them in half and remove the seeds. Place them cut side down on a pan. +Remove the husks from the tomatillos and rinse the sticky off of them. Cut them in half and place them cut side down on the pan with the peppers. +Slice and onion into rings. I used half an onion for this recipe, but a whole onion would be fine. If you're using half, cut it into half-rings. Place these on the pan with everything else. +Place the pan on the top rack of your oven right under the broiler. Roast the veggies until they're blistered and black, checking often. The tomatillos will be very juicy, so beware of hot squirting juices! Turn the onions so both sides get charred. +Toss everything into a blender or food processor, squeeze the lime juice into it (if you get a lime that doesn't give up a lot of juice, use two) and add a teaspoon of salt or so. I also like to add half a teaspoon of black pepper. Pulse until it's the consistency you prefer. This will keep in the fridge for about a week. If you prefer less heat, leave out the serrano. +*As an alternative, if you have a gas stove, you can char the peppers over the gas flame. It's just easier with the bulk of this recipe to put it all under the broiler. + **Red Salsa** +1 can whole peeled tomatoes, or 2-3 fresh tomatoes, peeled 1 jalapeno 1 serrano ½ onion juice of 1-2 limes salt to taste dash of sugar 1 T cilantro (or to taste) 1 t cumin (or to taste, I add more) +Put all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and pulse until it's the consistency you desire. This will keep in the fridge for about a week. + _At this time, your carne guisada is done cooking, your beans are done cooking, and you're dead on your feet. Grab a beer and a bowl and for the love of little green men, sit down and dig in. After a full day of cooking, you deserve it._ +As this is for a group of people (or a week of leftovers) figure on 2-3 tortillas per person. + +" +121,The Correct Use of Affect/Effect,R.

One of the reasons is that there are two Lay verbs. One is the base form of the verb Lay, and the other is the past tense of the verb Lie. +Lay is a transitive verb meaning 'to put or place.' Someone lays something down. +(Note: Lay is also a widely recognized slang verb or noun involved with sexual intercourse. Examples are 'John wants to lay Mary.' or 'Linda is a good lay.' The lay that is involved with sexual intercourse is not under discussion here.) +Lie is an intransitive verb meaning 'to rest on a more or less horizontal surface.' Someone lies down on a more or less horizontal surface. +(Note: Lie is also both another verb and a noun. The verb Lie can mean to tell other than the truth. The noun Lie is a statement that is other than the truth. The Lie, either verb or noun, that involves other than the truth is not under discussion here.) +Both Lay and Lie are irregular verbs. Of course it adds to the confusion that Lay is not only a present tense of the verb Lay, but also the past tense of the verb Lie. +Present Lay: 'He lay the woman on the bed.' 'They lay the woman on the bed.' Lie: 'He watched the woman lie on the bed.' 'They watched the woman lie on the bed.' +Present Participle (continuing action) Is/Are Laying: 'He is laying the woman on the bed.' 'They are laying the woman on the bed.' Is Lying: 'He is watching the woman who is lying on the bed.' 'They are watching the women who are lying on the bed.' +Past Laid (past tense of Lay): 'He laid the woman on the bed.' 'They laid the woman on the bed.' Lay (past tense of Lie): 'The woman lay on the bed all last night.' 'The women lay on the bed all last night.' +Past Participle Had/have laid: 'He had laid the woman on the bed.' 'They have laid the woman on the bed.' Had/have lain: 'The woman had lain on the bed for some time.' 'The women have lain on the bed for some time.' +Perfect (just completed action) The perfect tense of Lay is has/have Laid. He has laid the carpet. They have laid the carpet. The perfect tense of Lie is has/have Lain. He has lain down to sleep. They have lain down to sleep. +Which is correct? 'A person was laid on the table.' 'A person was lain on the table.' +Answer: 'A person was laid on the table' is correct. Laid is the past tense of Lay the transitive verb meaning 'to put or place.' Only the person himself/herself would have lain on the table. +Which is correct? 'The woman is laying on the bed.' 'The woman is lying on the bed.' +Answer: 'The woman is lying on the bed' is correct. Lying is the present participle of Lie the intransitive verb meaning 'to rest on a more or less horizontal surface.' Only someone else could have been laying the woman on the bed. +Which is correct? 'Lay the woman on the bed.' 'Lie the woman on the bed.' +Answer: [You] lay the woman on the bed is correct. Lay is the present tense of the transitive verb meaning 'to put or place.' Only the woman herself can lie on the bed. +Sentences such as 'He is laying on the bed.' or 'Why don't you lie it on the bed?' are wrong. +Correct forms are 'He is lying on the bed' and 'Why don't you lay it on the bed?' +Exceptions: The verb Lay was once used with a reflexive pronoun to mean 'Lie' and survives in the familiar line from the child's prayer ""Now I lay me down to sleep."" +The phrasal verb 'lay for' is standard as in: They lay in wait for their enemy. (A phrasal verb is a verb plus a preposition which creates a meaning different from the original verb.) +The nautical use of 'lay',' as in lay at anchor, though intransitive, is standard. +Bob Dylan, wrote the famous lines: """"Lay, Lady, Lay/Lay across my big brass bed,"" It is not too difficult to see why Dylan did not write the correct form ""Lie, Lady, Lie/Lie across my big brass bed."" +It's probably a good idea to keep the two verbs distinct in formal writing, since people will be looking for evidence of your education in your work. If you're submitting something for publication, the copy editor will almost certainly fix your lays and lies for you." +125,The Correct Use of There/Their/They're,R.

Homophones are words that are spelled differently, but sound the same. The following analysis shows a writer how to use the homophones. The related words Theirs and There's are also included in the analysis. +The misuse of homophones is one of the most frequently seen errors in submitted manuscripts. The homophone errors are particularly bad, in that they make the entire work appear amateurish and cause doubt about the worth of the work. +Hopefully, the following analysis will aid Literotica authors to improve their use of homophones. +There can be an adverb. An adverb is the part of speech that modifies a verb, adjective, or other adverb. +1: At or in a place ""[You] stand over There."" 2: To, into or toward a place. ""I wouldn't go There again."" 3: At a point or stage. ""[You] stop right There before you say something stupid."" 4: In a matter, respect or relation. ""There is where I disagree with you."" 5: Used as an interjection to express satisfaction, approval, encouragement or sympathy, or defiance. ""There, now I don't have to worry about that anymore."" +There can be an adjective. An adjective is the part of speech that modifies a noun or other substantive by limiting, qualifying, or specifying. 1: Used especially for emphasis after the demonstrative pronoun that or those, or after a noun modified by the demonstrative adjective that or those. ""That person There ought to know the directions to town."" 2: (Colloquial) Used for emphasis between a demonstrative adjective meaning 'that' or 'those' and a noun. ""No one is sitting at that There table."" ""Them There beans ought to be picked."" ['That there' or 'them there' are normally used by an uneducated person.] +There can be a pronoun. A pronoun is the part of speech that substitutes for nouns or noun phrases and designates persons or things asked for, previously specified, or understood from the context. 1: Used to introduce a clause or sentence: ""There are numerous things to be considered."" ""There must be another way."" 2: Used to indicate an unspecified person in direct address. ""Hello There."" +There can be a noun. A noun is the part of speech that is used to name a person, place, thing, quality, or action and can function as the subject or object of a verb, the object of a preposition, or an appositive. 1: A place or point. ""He paused and then went on from There."" +Examples: ""They say it is dangerous There."" [They say it is dangerous in that place.] ""There is a football game scheduled."" [A football game is scheduled.] ""There is a tide in the affairs of men."" [A tide exists in the affairs of men.] ""There are numerous examples."" [Numerous examples exist.] + Their is an adjective, a modifier before a noun. +Their may be the possessive form of they. 1: Used as a modifier before a noun. ""He listed Their failures."" ""Their home town is Houston."" 2\. [Usage Problem] There is sometimes used as a general replacement for 'his', 'her', or 'its': ""It was required for each student to list Their sex."" [It is not generally accepted as a proper replacement.] Examples: ""Their car is the red one."" [The car belonging to them is the red one.] +""They are waiting for Their turn."" [They are waiting for the turn belonging to them.] + Theirs is a possessive pronoun and is used with either a singular or a plural verb. Theirs is used to indicate the one or ones belonging to them. 1: That which belongs to them. Theirs is used without a following noun as a pronoun equivalent in meaning to the adjective their. ""This game is Theirs."" 2: Theirs is used with an indefinite third person singular antecedent. ""I will do my part if everyone else will do Theirs."" Examples: ""The red car is Theirs."" [The red car belongs to them.] ""If you do not have a compass, use Theirs. [If you do not have a compass, use the one belonging to them.] +[Note: There is no such thing as their's. The apostrophe would be used to show possession. Theirs is already a possessive.] +They're is a contraction of they are. +""They're not going to do it."" [They are not going to do it.] ""Although they're succeeding now, they will fail in the end.""

I see and hear that a lot from the widest variety of people. They don't like it or they ""can't"" do it. College students are the worst. After public speaking, expository writing has got to be the most hated class. There's a simple reason why. Once something has been written down someone else comes along and puts red marks all over the page. At least that's the way it's been since we all signed up for Kindergarten. It always seems to be _wrong_. Our grammar that is. +English grammar is, by international consensus, the worst grammar to get a handle on. It's hopelessly complicated and even more intricate. Most languages follow a tried and true formula. You put the subject of the sentence in first, then you add the object, and then you slap on the verb. You're done. Compounding is done by a nice series of ""ands"" or ""buts."" English, well, we have to do things the hard way. +Part of the problem with English is that we don't really understand our own grammar. I don't know how they do things in places where English isn't around to torture people, but around here, they just don't teach grammar well. It's difficult, darn it. It's not fun either. If you had someone write up a list of mind-numbingly boring things, grammar would be in the top three. If you'd rather be sticking your pencil through your eyeballs, you're not going to pay much attention when they're throwing words like ""modifiers"" and ""clauses"" at you. What in the heck is a ""dangling participle"" and who cares unless it's attached to somebody's body? +If grammar wasn't so important I wouldn't be bringing all of this up. People stuck with English as the language have to use it whether they like it or not. Face it, if you don't have some sort of grammar you're either completely incomprehensible or, worse, considered stupid. The key to using grammar with confidence is to understand grammar. Oh don't sink down in your chair and make gagging noises, it's not that bad, really. +So, what's grammar? It's the recognized conventions in stringing words together to form a spoken or written thought. Okay, one more time in English. Grammar is the vehicle that you use to make people understand what you're saying to them. Okay, okay, you _try_ to make people understand what you're saying to them. +The good news is that English grammar is relatively simple. Yeah, yeah, I know I said it was hopelessly complex, but that was just so you'd nod your head and think, ""yeah, this chick knows what she's talking about!"" Really. It has a few basic principles that never change and that's where understanding should begin. +Grammar is really like a car. You've got a few things involved in a car, you've got a driver, an engine, passengers and the junk on the floorboards, your radio, and a few other cool accessories. Grammar has a few things involved with it, too. It's got a subject doing the driving, a predicate powering the sentence, an object along for the ride, and some really cool modifiers like adjectives and adverbs that really accessorize your ride. +The first big thing is the subject. That's what your sentence is about. Usually we call this a noun, but sometimes it can be a noun phrase. What's the difference? A noun is one word a noun phrase is two or more. Jimbo and Bubba or students, teachers, and lunch ladies. You get the idea. This is the driver of your little vehicle. Your subject decides where to go and turns the wheel so that the engine and everything else along for the ride cruise around in an understandable and hopefully legal way. Speeding is a bad thing. Especially when there's a nice police officer behind you. This part is easy, you got a handle on that. Subject, noun, yeah! +The next one is a little harder. It's called a predicate. No, don't beat your head on the desk yet, there's another word involved. Verb. A predicate is always made up of at least one verb. Not all verbs are predicates, mind you, but all predicates are verbs. This is your powertrain. It's the engine and transmission of your sentence. It's the powerhouse because it does all of the action. Exactly! A predicate is the action part of the sentence. It's also the transmission, too. You know in a car the transmission harnesses the engine's power and directs how it's transmitted to the wheels. You've got first gear when you need a lot of torque and power. You've got like overdrive when you need to cruise down the highway at high speeds and you don't need a lot of power to keep you moving because the laws of physics are already doing that for you. A predicate works the same way. It sets the tone of your sentence. It can have a lot of raw power, pure torque running to the axles. Orlando strode inside and took his seat. Or it can just hum along and not do a whole lot. Orlando slunk inside and slumped in his chair.. All you have to do to harness the power of your engine is pick your predicate with some thought to its tone. +Sometimes you want to run down to the local watering hole and drag your buddies with you. Or you just never clean the floorboards and you accumulate a mound of, well, let's just call it cargo. Your sentences do the same thing. Lazy bastards. We call this cargo an object. Not because it's made up of objects– yuck, have you looked at the floor mats?-- but because in your sentence the object receives some action. Not that kind of action. It receives whatever action the verb is doing. You know, like Orlando threw the chair. Orlando is the driver. Threw is the engine. Chair is the guy in the passenger seat who keeps stiffing you on gas. Chair is the object of the sentence that received the action, threw, from the subject, Orlando. Orlando drove the car, threw was the engine that moved it, and chair was the cheapskate pal you keep driving around town. Easy, right? Well, sometimes the object isn't just a single word. It can be a phrase. Objects are generally always nouns. Orlando can throw a chair, a desk, and his books. +Now we get to the cool stuff. Now we take your ride and we modify it. Add a system, a moon roof, some racing slicks, some window tint and you've got a fabulous sentence. What? You think I'm going to do that stuff for your car? There's tons of modifiers that you can use to tweak your sentence, but I'm only going to deal with three different kinds. You've got adjectives, adverbs, and prepositional phrases. Have you heard of those words before? +Adjectives are those things that make the driver comfortable. The leather bucket seats, the leather wrapped steering wheel cover, the cool sunglasses. Adjectives modify nouns. That means they change nouns a little bit. You can have a student or you can have a sleeping student. It's the same noun, but the second one was modified a little, something more in line with reality, right? Now you can have the leather bucket seats of adjectives or you can have a seat cover that keeps sliding down. The luxury adjectives are the phrases. An adjectival phrase is a group of words that you slip in front of a noun to modify it. She has champagne taste and he has an eat at McDonald's budget. Or you can bypass the leather and go for a vinyl bench seat special. She has expensive taste and he has a cheap budget. I think you can see the difference. +Adverbs are the meat of your modifiers. Everyone has heard of an adjective and they usually know what they do. Most people have heard of adverbs, but couldn't spot one without a sign. An adverb is a word that modifies everything but a noun. Usually they end in -ly. Here's a few examples, see if you can pick out the adverb. Slowly drifting clouds. Screamed loudly. Adverbs add the music to your grammar. Now you can pick what kind of system you want in your vehicle. You can run the top of the line Blaupunkt with more watts per channel than the sun puts out, or you can pick the AM radio and listen to Lawrence Welk. She screamed loudly. Yawn. She screamed glass-breaking, ear-drum piercing loudly. A little better. Your choice in tunes, 10-CD disc changer or an 8 track. +Now prepositions are where the rubber meets the road. They tell your sentence where it's being driven. On, over, to, after, in, of, under, at, or any one of a dozen places in relation to the road. Prepositions are extremely easy to understand because you've got two parts to it. The preposition itself, which is merely the beginning word that indicates the position of the following word. It'll make more sense in a minute. Then there's the object of the preposition. It's not the same thing as the object of the whole sentence. The object of the preposition is just the word that indicates what we're in relation to. Like a good tire, preposition are imperative to keeping your sentence on the road. See, prepositional phrase: on the road. Cool huh? +Some cars you share the road with are huge. You've got SUVs, trucks, and those monstrous 18-wheelers that blow past you in a rush of diesel stench. Compound sentences are the big diesels of the grammar world. You've got a 500 cat engine lugging up to 80,000 pounds of cargo down the road at 70 miles an hour; you might want to know a little bit about it. A compound sentence is exactly what the word implies, more than one. I went to the store and bought some film. That's a simplistic compound sentence. You've got the driver, ""I,"" and two engines, ""went"" and ""bought."" There's a lot more to it than that, of course, but a compound sentence is a sentence and a phrase or another sentence hitched together with a conjunction of some sort. Our fifth wheel in the previous case was a word ""and."" Sometimes we use punctuation. Now punctuation can get a little tricky. If you slap together a complete sentence and a phrase you can use a comma to do it. I am a gorgeous, incredibly smart woman, noticeably vain, too. Noticeably vain is what we call a dependent clause or a phrase. It needs to have the first part of the sentence in order to make sense. Now if you slap together two complete sentences, we call those independent clauses, then you have to use a conjunction or a semi-colon. It looks cool, but a comma is wrong. Like when a tire blows off a big rig and slams into someone's windshield, a comma splice is bad news. I am such an egotistical woman; everyone loves me anyway. Easy, right? Just look to see how many complete sentences you have and you'll know whether or not to use a comma or a semi-colon. +In the space of a few minutes I gave you a crash course in how to drive a car. Whoops. I mean in how to use basic English grammar. It's not nearly as hard as English teachers make it out to be. Who ever diagrammed a sentence in real life anyway? My boss never once said Muffin, copy these, file these, mail these, and diagram these sentences by two o'clock or you're fired. Understanding what you're using is a good way to begin understanding how to use it. Now, there's a lot more to grammar and punctuation, but the basics aren't that hard at all. We only have three basic parts to a sentence, the subject, the predicate, and the object. We have a few things to spiffy up the sentence so maybe you can sell it to a used car lot for more than a few hundred bucks. Modifiers are good for making things look classy. We also have the ability to slap sentences together and make them compound. Otherwise ""See Dick Run"" would be classical literature. +And if Mrs. Sullivan is reading this, you don't know me, I wasn't in your class, and I'm not even from your state.

I belong to a Missouri Synod Lutheran Church in Des Plaines, IL. There are three that I know of, so your chances of tracking me down are slight. I am writing to other Christian wives, married to husbands who may have a ""kinky"" sexual side. If this whole subject makes you queasy, then I suggest you check out now, instead of reading on and sending me some nasty note. I warned you! +My husband is in his mid forties, as I am, though he's a bit older. We have had a wonderful and exciting sex life for almost 25 years. Although, he has always been way more sexual, and (I would say) sexually needy that me. When we were first married, I participated in sex, but didn't see a great need for it. Though his drive began very high, mine has steadily been on the increase, as I have tried over the years to respond to the majority of his advances. +A little background on our professional lives might help. My husband is a seminary grad, however, instead of taking a call as a pastor of a local congregation, he ended up teaching at a Christian University. I am a nurse practitioner, working side by side with physicians in a local medical group. +Anyhow, back to the real reason for this article. In the last few years, my husband and I have been advancing in our sexual relationship. He has always been ready to explore his sexual side. But in the last 24 to 48 months he has been encouraging me to do more of this (which, I have to admit, I am not really all that comfortable with). I have started using marital aides (sex toys). I have begun to use vibrators and dildos, and I have to say I have found them to be very helpful in getting me to climax rapidly. +In addition, with my husband we have started to utilize differing forms of pornography, both written (erotica) and the film variety. At first I was so uncomfortable with this, and felt it was terribly sinful and awful behavior. However, after some time, I have begun to see its benefits. It can be instructional and it speeds arousal, and I have to remark here that it does this not just for my husband , but for me as well. Usually, we watch or read this material together just before we engage in our own sexual activities. Let me suggest that, to the extent that the sexual toy are helpful for me, the porn is a like this for my husband. Early on I thought we must stop this practice of viewing or reading such things, but then I thought, ""Haven't all of my toys been an aid to better sexual expression with my husband?"" What if he told me I had to do away with them?"" +This realization, that his sexual needs may at times need boosting, just as my motor sometimes has a bit of a slow run up period, has really help me to see, both marital aides, as well as certain forms of pornography as mutually beneficial to our sexual relationship. In fact, it started me thinking, ""What should be considered 'good' and what should be considered 'bad' within our marriage relationship?"" Is our God ignorant of our sexuality? Certainly not! Is He aware that certain things can have these effects on us? Certainly He is! Is He bothered when we indulge in certain activities or actions? On this, I think it may just depend. He doesn't condone blatant sin for sure. However, even blatant sin has been dealt with by the blood of Christ. That is, ""There is therefore, now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,"" as one of the apostles wrote. But, to ""continue in sin that the grace of God may abound"" seems a poor way to go. Indeed, and I would have to agree. But I have also begun to reconsider what sin really may be in this instance. +This brings me to the topic of adultery. Very literally, adultery is a husband or a wife engaging in a sexual union with someone who is not their spouse. It is a sexual infidelity or unfaithfulness. Jesus Himself, rightfully broadens the command regarding adultery to even include lustful thoughts. But before we begin condemning everything, we should first consider, that Jesus' motivation in saying what He said was to get the self righteous to despair of their own estimations of their goodness, not to try and get people to pretend to live a certain way, in order to save themselves. He wanted people to be so clear that they could not keep the commandments of God, by showing their true difficulty, that folks would look instead for a Savior outside of themselves. +Now, Jesus' words are still true. Lustful thoughts are still adultery and they still depart from God's perfect ideal of what humanity should be. Nevertheless, we cannot free ourselves from lustful thoughts, ideas, and images. This shows us the nature and depth of our own depravity. Even if we flee such things, then we develop a desire to have them again. And, if we successfully flee and don't desire these things, then we commit an even worse sin of religious pridefulness. +What can we do? Well, we can be realists when it comes to all manner of sin. We can take note that not everything we engage in in the different areas of our lives is pure and clear and untainted by sin. In fact, everything we do is tainted, even what we consider our purest actions. So, what then? Well, again we need to be realistic about our own nature, and we need to show respect for God's institutions like marriage, knowing that, though life is full of sin, it does go better when we follow God's prescriptions for it, to the best of our ability. +So then, when it comes to our marriage, we refrain from any wholesale adultery, while at the same time we each know that it would be impossible to root out all lust from our thinking. The trajectory of our sexuality is aimed toward one another then. I may get hot and bothered as I utilize my vibrating rabbit, but in the end I don't fixate on the rabbit, but instead how I can use my sexual energy and horniness to engage with my husband. My husband, and I, for that matter, my watch some explicit sexual scene in a movie, which causes and enjoyable engorgement of our members, but we don't seek out the people in the scene to have relations with. To the contrary, we look to each other for sexual fulfillment. +You see, part of the facts not often submitted regarding our broken world, is that it is sexually broken too. And that includes the pure mechanism that make human sexuality possible--arousal. Men end up impotent or with arousal issues as a result of the sinful fall. Women too, suffer from menopause, sexual disfunction or a lack of sexual drive, again as a result of the sinful fall. It seems then, anything that can curb these problems, and promote sexual excitement and health between married couples can and should be adopted into use, rather than allowing our sexuality (which is a gift from God to be diminished). +So now, this is where this article goes from being mildly discomforting for many of you women who read it, to downright out of bounds and disgusting. +Based on the same or similar reasoning in some of the above paragraphs then, I have slowly become far more willing to, as my husband has encouraged, ""explore my sexual side"". And, what have I found? I have found that, more than just vibrators, sensual stories and movies, excites me and even my husband sexually. I have experimented with my nudity, by going to a nudist beach and baring it all. I have gone with and without my husband (because at first I was ashamed to tell him what I was up to). Both in both cases I came home and had the most fulfilling sex of my married life, and help my husband to enjoy the same. Its not ever going to be a lifestyle, or something I get up and share in church about, but I get sexually charged up by seeing nudity and having mine seen. +Okay, prepare yourself for this! I have also engaged in sexual activities with my husband while another couple looked on. I will not share all of the details here, but here are a few. I've wanted to do this ever since my husband told me it was a fantasy of his. At first I pretended to hate the idea, but deep down it intrigued me. But how could we do it safely, in a way that would not destroy our reputations in the eyes of people that we would never be able to convince? Well, I decided to find an anonymous like minded couple on the internet. I met with the other wife, at a Starbucks of all places, to get acquainted and discuss the ground rules. We decided that there would be no overt sexual contact unless it was done between the married couples (this was to be a firm rule). The curious touch of a breast or a penis was deemed okay between couples, but nothing that could be construed as fondling, rubbing or arousing. Other than that, we would meet, get naked, enjoy a hot tub as a group, and head to the bedroom, to show off for each other. Never once did I wish I was having sex with the other man. But I will say that I have never been so aroused. I have never, to this day, been able to give my husband the kind of sexual pleasure that I was able to that evening. The air was just full of sexual tension, excitement, and fervor. And, by the way, we all needed a little fermented grape juice before anyone could relax enough to even disrobe. Would I do it again? Not everyday, no. But on a special select day, or vacation, I sure would. I want to show my husband how sexual I can be--that's the gift I can give him. And when I give it only to him, as he is the only one to experience me, I think I am doing something laudable, rather than something dirty. +Should we be parading our sexuality in public? No, absolutely not! But we did not. This was a privately arranged display of sexuality, mutually agreed upon by those involved. +I am learning that a man always needs new and exciting sexual stimuli in order to enjoy real sexual fulfillment. And I want to be the one to provide it, and to be involved in it, rather than having him be frustrated, or worse, looking elsewhere. I will continue to push my limits, within our marital limits, and what we see as God's framework, to excite and arouse my husband, myself and our sex life. +You may be asking, ""Aren't you just justifying a bunch of bad sexual behavior?"" My answer is, ""No, I don't thing we are."" We are fulfilling one another to such an extent that we are helping one another to avoid the really intolerable and destructive behaviors that are rampant in other more stilted marriages. +For me there are still boundaries that I will not cross. I will not engage in sex with another man. Though my husband has discussed it, and said it was a fantasy of his, I will not engage in a threesome (even though a male, male female threesome is a very erotic thought for me) I will not cross that line. I will not engage in swinging or cheating on my husband. +You see, it is all about marital fidelity, and there are two parts to that. First, being faithful to the one you married by not fooling around with another. Second, being faithful to the one you married by fulfilling their sexual needs, and giving them your unbridled sexuality. That is just it. For years, in my marriage, I didn't really give my husband my full sexual self. I bridled it. I tried to let him know I didn't have anything but the purest sexual thoughts and ideas. It sounded nice, I suppose, but it was not true. I was not giving him the true sexual me. I was giving him the picture of a woman I thought I should be instead. It was a mistake, girls. I should have opened up years ago. I didn't know it but, deep down, I was frustrated and so was my husband. Now, everything is out there. I know what he wants. He knows what I want. Some of what he wants is crazy and off limits, and some of it is workable. But at least he knows he can be honest about it all with me, and maybe even enjoy that which is not out of bound, by working with me to accomplish it. And the same for me. I now share my desires. I tell him about my enjoyment of showing my nudity, and of how exciting it is for me to watch others having sex. We look for movies together, we shop for toys, we look for opportunities to arouse each other. Marriage has never been so fun, or felt so secure. +I know I have run on a bit without a clear outline of thought, but I hope you get the idea. I am a Christian. I have a strong faith in Christ. I am very sexual woman too--a married one, who has a responsibility to the one man I married. I am going to move forward in my Christian freedom, and be all of these things to the best of my ability!" +130,Create an Off-line Library,normist,How To,2008-05-04,2008-05-04,2022-01-04 08:27:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/create-an-off-line-library,How to re-read your favourite stories offline.,[''],3.87,"I often re-read stories that I like. My bookshelves groan with the weight of books collected over the last sixty odd years. To re-read the stories from the Literotica web site needs, at the very least, a note of the titles and authors. I lost track of three stories before I started making notes! Furthermore, on holiday at our caravan there is no way of connecting to the internet. +While the idea, of making separate chapters of a Literotica story into separate submissions, is a good idea for authors, enabling them to get feedback as they go along. For readers, it can mean a lot of going to and fro among different web pages. The splitting of stories and their chapters into several web pages also breaks up the flow for readers. +So; after you have **read and voted** on a story that appeals to you, and you want to keep the story to read it again, try this method to combine the web pages that make up a story into one page. For example: the 21 web pages that make up the story ""Quartet-Ingrid"" can be saved as one web page of 340 kB. +The process is carried out using only a text processor. The windows text processor 'Notepad' is, perhaps, not the best program to use. I use Note Tab Pro. If you want to try it, there is a free version (see below). I have no connection with the website, except as a satisfied customer. One advantage of Note Tab is that different parts, such as the story and the HTML tags, appear in different colours. +The first step is to select or make a library folder to house your off-line reading. Next, you need to write and save two files. Here is the first file:- +body { +background-color: #ffffaa; +} +#content { +background-color: #ffffaa; +color: #000033; +width: 95%; +margin-left: 5%; +font-family: Arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; +font-size: small; +} +h1 { +background-color: #ffffaa; +color: #000033; +font-family: Arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; +font-weight: bold; +font-size: x-large; +text-align: right; +} +h2 { +background-color: #ffffaa; +color: #000033; +font-family: Arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; +font-size: large; +} +h3 { +background-color: #ffffaa; +color: #000033; +font-family: Arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; +font-size: x-small; +} +.cen { +height: auto; +margin-left: auto; +margin-right: auto; +text-align: center; +} +Type this file in your text editor and save as **page.css. _Note:_** This CSS file must be saved in your Library folder. +Now for the second file:- + + + **\--Story title--** + + + +

A range of optional colours is to be found on the web (see below) + _template.htm_ +The parts of this file shown in bold are the items to be changed! + **A note on copying** +Move the mouse pointer to one end of the text you wish to copy. Press and hold the left mouse button until the pointer has been moved to the other end of the text. Release the mouse button. Press and hold down the 'control' key first and then press the 'C' key. +Move the mouse pointer to the spot where you want to copy the text. If there is text to be replaced, press and hold the left mouse button. Then move the pointer to the end of the text to be replaced. If no text is to be replaced, just position the mouse pointer and click the left mouse button. +Now, press and hold the 'control' key first and then press the 'V' key. + **And now for the process** +Having read a story that you feel you want to save, go back to the first page. Click on 'File' in the menu bar and then 'Save as'. Accept the name in the save-as window. Where there are more pages, shown as Part 1, 2, 3 etc. at the bottom of the page, Literotica use the same 'save-name' as part 1. Here I click on the name and add space-b, space-c, after the name, and so on. Sometimes each Chapter comes in separate parts. Do the same on each part. As long as each saved file has its own name! +Now open your text editor and open the template.htm. Also open the first page of the story to be processed by double-clicking on the page icon. +The next step is to save the template file using the name of the story. By doing it now, you avoid saving your story as the template file later after you have made all the alterations! This would involve renaming your story to its proper name and re-typing the template file, which defeats the object of the method. +However, If it happens, do not worry. I have done it myself more than once! +All the following alterations are made by clicking on the start or finish of the of the text that you want to copy. Now, without letting go of your mouse button, move the cursor to the other end of the to-be-copied text and release the mouse button. Press Ctrl+C. Move the mouse to the text editor to where the text is to be pasted. If there is text to be replaced, select it as you did before (but not pressing Ctrl-C). Now press Ctrl-V. +There are five minor changes to be made in your text editor before copying the story itself. Copy the name of the story and paste it in the two places calling for it in the text editor. You only have to Ctrl-C the name once and Ctrl-V it twice. The story class and title is found after the word 'index'. Copy the Author's name. Finally, to find the 'Author number' click on the author's name to go to their submissions page. The 'Author number' is given in the address field. I.E. it is in the URL! Alternatively go to the menu-bar; click on 'View' and then 'Source'. This brings up the file in Windows Notepad. Find the Author number and paste it in your text editor. The object of this step is to provide a link to the Author's Submissions page. +Click back to the story page and now you can start copying the story. Click just on the first letter of the text of the story and drag the mouse pointer to the bottom of the text without letting go of the mouse button. The page may scroll a little slowly for your taste. You can speed it up by moving the mouse pointer left and right below the window. A warning here! If possible, when you look for the end of the text, move the mouse pointer slowly. If there is a space immediately following the text, try not to include this space if you can. It makes the later stages a little easier. Release the mouse button and press Ctrl-C. Go to your text editor and paste the text with Ctrl-V. Press the 'enter' key twice. This maintains the empty line between the paragraphs. +Repeat for all the pages of the story. You should now have the whole story in your text editor with a single blank line between paragraphs. Almost at the end of the file in your text editor find a line which reads

. Select this using Ctrl-C. Now scroll up to the start of the story. This is where the dull repetitive part of the process starts! Put your cursor on the blank line after the first paragraph of the story. Press the Ctrl key-'V' once and 'down-arrow' twice (in Note Tab). Repeat until you reach the end of the story! The first press of the 'down-arrow' takes the cursor to the start of the next paragraph and the second press takes the cursor to the blank line at the end of that paragraph. One possible error, which will stop going to sleep while filling the inter-paragraph lines, is that sometimes you will find more than one blank line between paragraphs. Watch out for these and correct as you go along. +In Windows NotePad, the process is slightly different. Instead of pressing control-down arrow twice for each paragraph, you have to press down arrow on its own for each line of the paragraph in your text editor. +If you have separate chapters in the story, it helps if put at the start of the chapter heading line and at the end. +If you have something like +* * * * * +as a break or to indicate the passage of time, put

at the start of the line and

at the end of the line. It will now look like: +* * * * * +WARNING!!--In this submission, I have had to centre these asterisks by another method! +Save the file and you are done. +However, you can take it one-step further. Unfortunately typos misspellings and dare I say it mistakes creep in. Even editors can miss them sometimes. What I do is to open the story file in my text editor window in the left half of the screen and the story in my browser in the right half of the screen. I read the story in the browser window. If a correction is wanted, it can be done in the text editor. Save the file and go back to your browser. Click on the refresh button (the one with two arrows) and the story updates will appear. +Respect the copyright of the author by not distributing the consolidated file. Keep it for your own enjoyment. Perhaps you would like to make an index page for your collection of tales.

Good conversation simply does _not_ consist of a listing of He said this, she said that, he growled, she purred, they hissed, etcetera. +People do not purr, or hiss, or chirp. Sometimes we banter, but a reader wants to see the bantering, rather than be told how it is being done. +I must reiterate this to you. Men do not rasp, or cluck, or growl, or bark. Women do not hiss (especially when their sentence does not end in ""s""), purr, chirp. +These are _lazy_ methods used in written word to avoid writing actively. While these methods are lazy, and distracting, they are nothing compared to the unforgivable blasphemy of misusing punctuation lazily. For example: ""!!!"" or ""!?""... +These symbols were not created to rape grammar, or ruin conversation. If anything should end with ""!!!"", then the topic preceding it should be imperative, negating the need for three exclamation marks. +Likewise, if something is such a serious question that it requires ""!?"", then the topic preceding it had better be a question of life and death... and all the same, _don't_ do that. +It's ugly, lazy, and it makes dialogue look forced, and obtuse. +Using implication, active dialogue creates a three dimensional conversation that avoids needless cliches in growling, purring, hissing, etcetera. +To illustrates the differences between the two, and to illustrate when using dialogue tags _is_ acceptable, please consider the examples below. +The following example of dialogue is written in the style that a majority of authors create conversation. This is written in the third person objective, but applies equally to first person objectives. +Mark and Jody +""Hey there Mark."" Jody sighed, lazily. She glanced into Mark's eyes, and smiled. +""Hey there Jody."" Mark said, mimicking her lazy drawl. He loved the color of her crystalline blue eyes. +""What are you doing around these parts?"" Jody asked, leaning back, but still maintaining her eye contact. +""Oh, you now, same old, same old."" Mark smiled. +""Same old, huh?"" Jody countered. +""You know it."" Mark grinned. +""That's too bad."" Jody purred. +""Too bad!?"" Mark growled. ""Too bad!?"" +""Don't get all pissy with me now, Mark. I've been chasing you for years and you never once saw me as more than a piece of ass.""< +""Jesus, Jody. I... I didn't know. I'm sorry.""< +""Yeah, well stay sorry. Why are you here...?"" +The above example illustrates a conversation that _could_ provide a compelling read if not for the constant distraction of Jody saying mark's name, and following it with ""Jody said"", and mark replying with a ""Mark said"" thereafter. +Indeed, because there are only two people conversing, it is fine to relax identifying tags so long as there are other indicatives of who is speaking. +Likewise, in a party of three or more, though it is trickier, it is still possible to avoid overusing speech tags. +The following example is the exact conversation as shown in the first example, but utilizing alternatives to speech tags. Unnecessary identifying tags are removed, and the conversation managed in a compelling atmosphere, with the attempt to _show_ the scene, rather than tell it. +Mark and Jody take II +The summer sun was hot, even in the shade. +Jody sat, feeling all too lazy, watching the breeze create smoldering whirls of dust devils in the cracked soil that used to be a front lawn. +She yawned, watching the approaching figure of Mark Dagney, a talented liar, and so naturally, her _ex_ boyfriend. +Jody locked eyes with Mark, relaxed, and waved a barely noticeable dismissal. ""Hey there."" +""Hey there."" Mark continued up her porch, and leaned against the railing. Chips of white paint fluttered away from the old wood, flecks sticking to the ribs of his sweaty tank top. +It had been a long walk, but an important walk, and there was a lot to say. +Jody stretched, arching her back out a moment, pushing her chest out only slightly, and reminding Mark exactly what he was missing. Cheaters never prospered. ""What brings you around these parts?"" +""Same old, same old."" +""Same old, huh?"" +Mark grinned, cocking an eyebrow. Jody hated _the eyebrow_. +"" _You know it_. + _You know it._ Jody knew that tone. It actually meant, _you know it **babe**_. +Mark's cute little nuances were nauseating now. She knew the song, and dance, and there was only one reason Mark Dagney came around, and it was never for polite conversation. +He was the epitome of the worse men in creation, squared. Jody drew her lips back into the pretense of a warm smile. ""That's too bad."" +Mark's brow furrowed, his expression darkening instantly. _Fucking Jody_. ""Too bad?"" +Jody would have flinched, but flinching gave Mark Dagney more power than he ever deserved in a lifetime. Jody, calm, kept the smile. ""Don't get all pissy with _me_. I chased your worthless, cheating ass around for years, and I was never more than a piece of ass to you, you arrogant son of a bitch."" +""Jesus, Jody."" Mark said, suddenly. ""I didn't know you felt that way... I'm sorry."" + _Yeah, you stupid shit. Too late for apologies._ ""Mark, what do you want."" +Here you see I actually did use a dialogue tag. Tactically exceptional, too. It was used as a dramatic pause in ""Jesus, Jody."" Mark said. ""I didn't..."" In the case of situations which require a pause, you do not need to write ""mark paused"". +The pause is implied. +You WANT to imply whichever emotion you're character feels. Instead of asking what Mark wanted, Jody demanded it. ""What do you want."" It wasn't small talk; it wasn't polite conversation. +Use italics! They emphasize thought, and emotion, and may convey exclamation greater than any ""!!!"" of ""!?"" ever could. +Instead of ""What!?"" or ""What!!!"" Try "" _What?_ "" or even, _What!_ It is simply more effective, and progresses the conversation along without stalling. +Italic thoughts are awesome for conversations. They indicate what a character is thinking, and therefore can imply it in the conversation. **Example:** +_Mark you stupid shit. Too late for apologies._ ""Mark, what do you want."" +In one sentence, because of a thought, the sentence implies he is neither forgiven, nor welcome there. +These are the basics of creating a driving conversation. Action sequences, and high paced conversations may be preceded by action. +The door burst open, splintering the frame as Mark crashed through it, tacking Jody to the floor. ""Stay down, stay down!"" +A maelstrom of gunfire poured overhead, as Mark crept on his stomach, dragging a shaking Jody behind him. ""What do they want?"" +Mark grimaced, pulling himself, and Jody behind a wall. ""They want _you._ "" +The same can be said of any emotional scene. Conveying emotion implies the tone, and mood of the conversation. It saves on overusing the He said, She said problem, and allows an author creativity, and flow, which keeps a story moving, and readers interested +Overuse of any punctuation will bore your reading audience. Substituting punctuation with proper descriptors is one way to keep the story exciting. +If you can find a way to describe intensity in a sentence, or less, this is INTENSITY. For dialogue, this is paramount in avoiding the overuse of ""!"" or worse, using the blaspheming ""!!"" or ""!!!"". +This same rule may be applied to general writing to weave excitement into the story, though it supersedes a single sentence, and may be written as needed, so long as the paragraph is supposed to end in ""!"". +If you can find a way to describe struggling with words, in such ways as hysteria, stuttering, or stammering, or stuttering, this is ""??"", or ""???"". +Always, always remember that ITALICS easily emphasize both ""!"" and ""?"", as well as their blasphemous counterparts. +Writing good, and believable dialogue is tantamount to creating a compelling story. +It is also acceptable to use caps lock when shouting. It indicates the possibility of screaming, however overuse may be distracting, and this method should be used with discretion." +132,Creating Believable Characters,NobodyWorthKnowing,How To,2012-02-28,2012-02-29,2022-01-04 08:27:20,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/creating-believable-characters-ch-01,1. Creating believable characters your readers will love. 2. Making characters worth falling in love(lust) with.,"['Author Advice', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing How-To']",4.03,"Without characters, a story is little more than a detailed road-map, or atlas. Empty scenes, and situations would be hollow, blank neighborhoods, fictional deserts of magnitudes post apocalyptic. Imagine reading a book where you were given beautiful descriptions, detailed environments, dangerous scapes, and deadly terrains, but nothing happened. + _Ever._ +This literary fiction desert would be useless. +Writing is not an exacting art; certainly there are exact methods, and exact grammatical efforts which an editor, a publisher, and an audience wants to see, but if writing were set in hard law, all authors would have the same voice, all stories would sound the same, and all fiction would be worth less than the paper it was printed on. +No, writing is chaotic order. It is translation of the spirit, the mind, and the body; it is an agreement to share them all with an audience. +This is not applicable to poetry. Poetry may describe anything from stale earth, to grains of sugar, and hail as prolific, and genius. This particular application is limited to fiction, and non fiction, in all genres. +Non Fiction, and Creative Non Fiction already have a cast; the cast is based off of whatever the situation, and subject deems, for a cast that was present at the time it all occurred. +Fiction is a different story. Literally, and figuratively... and character creation is an art in, and of itself. +Creating a three dimensional character is hard. Methods to doing so are also debatable among the writing community. +Some instructors insist that researching characters is a waste of time, and would have aspiring authors simply write a story, use their characters how they will, and complete the task. The belief that an author who knows their characters will translate to paper that knowledge, so that the readers too can know. +Some instructors call it hogwash, and insist that characters are allowed a file each, and a background perhaps ten generations prior to. The character profiles have hair color, and eye color, height, weight, pant, or dress size, history, schools, degrees... anything the author feels is important to that character. Major players get full overviews; minor players get a 3x5 note-card with brief descriptions of the same kind. +I believe in both methods, simultaneously. +The problem with not researching each aspect of a character is that characters often surprise us. We as authors believe we create these beings, but in reality, buried in our brilliant subconscious mind, these beings exist already, and are seeking their birth. It's a creepy sort of reincarnation, born of imagination, dreams, and nightmares. +This means that characters are subject to change. Sometimes mid story. Without a full knowledge base of who, what, when, where, and why, it could pull a story to a screeching halt. +New authors have a bad habit of writing characters into their stories as though each character is a single emotion come to life. The good guy is just good. He's unshakable, he's unbreakable, he has nothing to lose, and so cannot be beaten. The villain is evil beyond darkness, and fears nothing. He too is unshakable, and unstoppable, and he hates the good guy. The girl is madly in love with one, or the other, or both, but has no personality beyond that love (cough, cough, Bella Swan), and the cast of friends are only present to support, or bring down the protagonist/antagonist/etcetera. +Longing gazes, and long love stricken soliloquies are fine for poorly written teenage romance novels, wracked in strange fantasies, and marble skinned vampiric sexuality, and it certainly will make a published author rich... but I would rather be a respected, poor writer, than a rich hack... and yes. I have a personal-professional problem with a certain Twilight author. It is because of her that your work has expectation built upon it now. God help you if you loved Bram Stoker's Dracula, or Anne Rice's vampires, because if they don't glitter like diamonds in the sun, well. Let's just hope your characters are compelling. +Which leads happily to the next part of this lesson. +The compelling character is a character that has hopes, dreams, sins, and saving graces. He, or she, has memorable qualities, and weird quirks. Your tough talking character does not have to have adamantium claws, and a cigar. It's very one dimensional, because let's face it: He's the best at what he does, and what he does isn't very nice (I actually love Wolverine, but still: He was created for one genre. Comics. His character doesn't translate well into three dimensions, because he is the thesis of personal loss, pain, suffering, and revenge). Your anti hero can be a rough and tumble bad ass, who is also a rough and tumble homosexual (IE Agent Smecker in Boon Dock Saints). Your sassy sweet heroine doesn't have to be Thelma, or Louise. She doesn't have to be Joan Beaver, Mrs. Brady, or Mrs. Robinson. +TOO often are we focusing on media icons, modeling our characters after people like Jolie, Pitt, Cruise, Combs, Smalls, Pac, etcetera. We take what we see in contemporary society, and apply it to our work, and we create these characters that read more like D-lebrities, rather than people. +Three dimensions means your character eats, sleeps, and uses the restroom. They brush their teeth, comb their hair, they enjoy whatever things people enjoy, because they too are people. If your character has a job, and doesn't go to work, they had better have a doctor's note, or they're getting fired. If they have kids, those kids had better go to school, or a truant officer, or worse, child protective services will be breaking down their door. This is just the reality of it. You should translate your knowledge of a character into written form without having to slide into exposition. Likewise, you should be like the FBI with your characters, having complete files on their existence, transactions, lifestyle, boyfriends, girlfriends, dogs, cats, cars, and extended family. If your character were real, they should be terrified, or extremely angry that you know so much. +This knowledge helps you as you write, fills in the blanks, and allows you flexibility, and reference as your story progresses. +I can't help you decide who your characters are, or how they behave. I cannot tell you their names, or ages, or why they are the way they are. I can only tell you that they are NOT abstract pieces of multiple personalities, based on single emotions, and acting in that category only (unless you're actually writing a story where the characters are EXACTLY that). +I can only tell you that once you create your character, he, or she, should be someone that another character, or even you, could fall in love with. Someone that others, or you, might love, or hate, or argue with. Someone who should put down the toilet seat but always forgets, or close the lid on the pickle jar. They are a person with virtues, and sins, pride, and humility. They are good, and evil, and everything in between... and that is what makes them real. They are born of you, but grow on their own, so nurture them. They mean the success of your work, and without them, your stories would be nothing more than a road-map: a scenic guide to what could have been. + +" +133,Creating Constructive Feedback,Zanzibar,How To,2004-04-15,2004-04-15,2022-01-04 08:27:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/creating-constructive-feedback,How to help improve the stories you read.,"['Author', 'Feedback', 'Good Bad', 'Positive Negative', 'Readers Enjoy', 'Story', 'Story Good', 'Story Made']",4.35,"Authors, how many times have you wondered why people thought the way they did about your story? How many times have you looked at the information about your story and wonder why it got voted a 1 or a 5? How many times have you gotten feedback that provided no real information about why they thought your story was good, bad or indifferent? +Readers, how many of you that feel that telling someone their story is great, or that it reeks, is providing feedback that is useful to the author? How many of you feel great because you took the time to click on that form and add a few words? And you know something? It IS a great thing, and as an author I know I appreciate it. But there is a way to make those few moments even more effective, and become someone who authors will love to see comments from. Learn how to provide 'constructive' feedback instead of just positive or negative feedback. +Many times, I've gotten feedback such as: +""I love it, it was great."" +""Good stuff!"" +""That sucked, why do you write such crap?"" +All of the above are forms of feedback. The first two positive, and the latter negative... but none of them were constructive feedback. Why did they love it? Why was it good? Why did it suck? From what those readers wrote, I really got no idea of what moved them, good or bad. +'Constructive' feedback consists of identifying those items that stood out from the story, good or bad, and relating them to the author in a way that they know why it made you feel the way it did. Why did it move you? Why did it make you excited, angry, happy, upset, delighted, disgusted or horny? +'Constructive' feedback also provides the author with your comments in a manner designed to identify strengths or shortcomings in such a way that not offensive or emotional. It sticks to the facts of the story without attacking the author. This is especially important when identifying things you consider to be shortcomings in a story. +When I read something like - ""Your story sucked, asswipe! Why do you write such crap?"" I personally tend to just toss it in the trash with the remainder unread. That's the common response most people have when they feel attacked by someone – an immediate defensive reaction is to stop paying attention to what the writer is saying and fight back, or defend yourself. +When I read something like - ""The main characters in your story lacked any depth and I couldn't really relate to them. That kept me from getting into your story."" - or - ""The way you kept switching between past and present tense in your story really made it hard to follow."" I get a much clearer picture of what a reader didn't like in a story and it's presented in a manner that doesn't immediately make me react defensively. It makes me go back and look at my story and see where I made those mistakes, or think of ways to strength my writing style to make my stories more enjoyable to the readers. Those are examples of negative reactions presented in a constructive manner, to help an author become a better writer. +Positive feedback with specific instances of what moved you help reinforce good things in an author's style. Examples of some positive constructive feedback are: ""I liked the way you build up the suspense."" ""I knew exactly how the woman in your story felt because of your vivid imagery in describing her thoughts."" ""I liked the way you used rich descriptive phrases in your story to show me what was going on."" All three examples pointed out specific things that the reader enjoyed and made the story a better experience for them. That tells me what I am doing right! It's important for me as an author to know what my readers enjoy most as well, so I can continue to include that in my stories, or work to make that even richer for my readers. +So in summary – the best forms of constructive feedback will provide an author with the following: +1) The name of the work in question. +2) What you enjoyed, or didn't enjoy about the work. +3) Why you did, or didn't enjoy it. +4) If possible, a specific example of what you identified in 2 or 3. +As an author myself, I have found constructive feedback has been a great help to me – when I have been able to get it. It's incredibly valuable in helping me identify strong aspects of my writings that hook the reader and have them wanting more, as well as point out areas where I need more work. +I feel that's an important aspect for any author - Knowing what they are doing well, as well as knowing flaws in their writings that need work. After all, that's why I write... to paint a picture in a reader's mind that they can follow and see in a clear, imaginative manner. Everything that helps me do that in a more effective manner makes me a better author, and hopefully provides better stories for the readers to enjoy.

Paragraphs become wordy, long drawn out sequences of adjectives, adverbs, and clichés as the aspiring author attempts to impress readers with their skill in literary arts. +I am terribly guilty of this, even now, after twenty years in writing... but that's what rewrites are for. +The dilemma I see, though, is that new authors stake their claim in a first draft as though they found the mother lode, and their work is pure gold. Even if a story is platinum, if the scenes are obsequious, the reader will lose interest. I'm sorry, but it is a fact. +New authors get the idea that a concise message will dilute their work, and all those pretty words are wasted, but realistically, a concise paragraph that tells a story effectively is fiction on steroids. +If an author can describe blue in seven sentences or less, then this individual has out written the author who cannot. I realize how arrogant, how opinionated, how ridiculous, and selfish this may sound, but take it into consideration. When you read instructions, would you prefer longer instructions, or accurate short instructions? +When you watch a movie, would you prefer to watch a fast paced action sequence, or a sequence too busy to focus on the action at hand? +This is described in one word: chaos. For example: +The rain fell harshly, falling hard, like marbles, pelting the dry, and cracked desert soil. There had not been rain in the valley for a long, long time. Within minutes, the soil yielded helplessly to the rain, turning to mud, and then puddles, and then gradually, into a pond. The rain seasons had begun. It was during this time of the year that the most torrential storms shook the valley, and by the end of spring it would create an oasis that would last until the end of the first month of summer. Then the harsh relentless sun would destroy everything that had struggled to be when the desert became a wetland. +I almost fell asleep writing it, but we see it all too often. I felt almost like I was watching an episode of National Geographic. A description like this may even belong there, but it doesn't belong in a book. Cutting the description paragraph does not mean cutting the power of its effective description. There's a hellish desert. There's a storm that is alien to the desert but once a season, once a year, and there's the reclamation of that hell. It's a cycle. I was good friends with a famous artist by the name of **Oleg Zhivetin** (I was actually engaged to his daughter at the time). He read a manuscript of mine, tossed it back on my lap, and said (with his thick Russian accent): ""A story, written good, a reader should pick up the book, open it to any page, read a line, and be instantly able to read from that point forward."" +Translation: Every sentence should be interesting; every line should be a hook. At no point should a book ever have ""filler"" or ""dead air"". I am as guilty of this writing sin as anyone. +Let's visit that desert again. +Monsoons were alien to the hard, tortured desert soil. Lacking vegetation meant flash floods would soon replace muddy puddles, and nothing would escape the torrential rage. It would stay this way throughout April, calm by may, and by the end of July, you would never know there had ever been an oasis. +I realize the subject is lacking any real excitement... after all, I'm writing about Death Valley... or the Mojave, or Sahara... take your pick of any hostile desert terrain. That's it, right there... but I hope my point is clear. I managed to describe--to show--gale force storms in a single word: Monsoon. I managed to explain cracked earth, and dead land in ""hard, tortured desert soil"". Even that may have been too descriptive. I explained mud, puddles, and flooding in less time, and managed to explain how it began, how long it would last, and how it would end. +I did this all in roughly three sentences. Had I removed commas, and replaced them with periods, it would be maybe five sentences. It certainly wasn't written in the fashion of its original state. +Effective scenery means enticing descriptions that get straight to the point. It is not an easy method, it is not always fun, but it reads well, and keeps an audience interested. +Challenge yourself, seriously. +1) In seven sentences or less, describe a character with a broken kneecap. You're not allowed to use the word kneecap. +2) In five sentences or less, describe the color purple. You are not allowed to use the word purple. +3) In three sentences or less, describe the process of presidential election. +4) In one sentence, effectively describe a great white shark. +5) In one word, effectively describe a well shaped physique. +In five small exercises, whether you succeed the first time, or not, you begin to understand the importance of description. In fact, if you place limits on description while writing your poetry; your mini sagas, flash fiction, short stories, novellas, or novels, you will find yourself able to replace seven words with three, or even one. The more powerful your ability to do so, the more compelling your structure, the more compelling the read, the more pleased an audience you shall see." +135,Creative Construction of Character,Quint,How To,2002-04-04,2002-04-04,2022-01-04 08:27:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/creative-construction-of-character,"How to not write like everyone else, & well.","['Shy Woman', 'Story Read']",4.62,"Let me make myself clear from the beginning so nobody can use this as ""ammo"" in feedback: my advice is not for everyone. I understand that no two writers are the same, and I accept this fact with good humor and without blame. Nevertheless, there are trademarks that certain authors may adopt for their own, and one of them is quality writing. This is a hassle to many authors; a quantity of quick, easy, dirty stories will rake in more readers and more points than a novella the author poured her heart into, and it's less painful to get flamed. I'm a masochist, so I pour. This essay is not for the quick- and-easies out there, this is for the fellow masochists who say ""Please, let me create a piece of work that I can call erotic art, not a cum tale."" +So now that I have guaranteed myself an inferno, let's get started! I'm sure the reader of this article has read at least ten Lit stories recently. Remember those stories? Did they have a paragraph that went along the lines of ""She was 5'4"" with 36C breasts and long blonde hair""? I will bet you that 9/10 do, and I'm betting conservatively. To me, that gets old very quickly, and I'm talking about the fact that all that description is in one big paragraph, not the unrealistic perfection we all try to capture in our main characters. Admittedly, it is nice for the instant gratification crowd to immediately ""see"" the soon-to-be-fucked heroine of the story. Let me repeat, this is not bad! If you write to get as many people off in the shortest amount of time possible, this is a pretty good formula for you. No thought process is required for the reader or the author, and that can be reassuring. You may depart this essay without even leaving a rating. +However, if I still have your attention, let's explore an alternate route. Instead of telling the reader about your main character (and the subsequent ones, too) in one blunt, fast-paced, predictable paragraph, why not make them wait a little for it and piece it together on their own? Chances are, the reader will become much more interested in the story because a.) it isn't like every other one they've read, and b.) it's more realistic. That summation paragraph (henceforth referred to as ""The Paragraph"") puts the story on ""freeze,"" and displays the heroine on a revolving pedestal: ""And here we have exhibit one: a 48D female with a curvy ass and an 80's perm."" It's like a traffic jam. It's unaesthetic and boring, and if you put just a little more time into it, you can easily change it. +But how? Just see where description would logically fit in and stick it there! Windy day? Comment on how Character X's long brunette tresses were flying madly about her face. Going shopping? Mention how that shirt she tried on was far too tight for her 60F bosom. Talking to the soon-to-be-fucking-her boy? Have her smile and then have him suddenly realize what a cute little nose she has, giving him an immediate erection. Yes, there may be some blatant plot manipulation going on, but that's much less noticeable than ""The Paragraph"". Plus the reader might even enjoy putting the puzzle pieces together and finally having the mental picture of a drop-dead gorgeous, sexed out woman. Then he'll get horny. That's good. +Oh, but the fun isn't over yet! Let's go back to the examples. How many stories are there that state explicitly, ""Lilah was an extremely shy woman,"" and then have Lilah go out to a bar and fuck 20 guys and their Dobermans (Dobermen?) in one night? How is that the work of a shy woman? Answer: THE AUTHOR WAS LYING TO YOU! Do you want to lie to your readers? Then don't! +Here's an exercise for you: in the next story you write, leave out any sentences that go: ""X was (insert adjective)"". Remember what descriptions you wanted to put there, but don't write it in! Just write their actions and their dialogue. At the end of the story, read back over what you've written and honestly ask yourself, ""are these the actions and words of a character that I described mentally as (insert adjective)?"" If the words and actions are consistent with the word you really wanted to write, you did a great job! You SHOWED, you didn't TELL. Hey, key concept! Likewise, if your story looks like the ""Lilah"" example above, you either want to change your descriptions or change how you want your character to be, because one or the other has to go! Note that this doesn't mean that you shouldn't say a character did things a certain way, such as ""LaShountiqualla smiled brazenly as she cupped her 88N breasts."" That's showing, even though it states exactly how she said it. Try not to get confused; it's the difference between saying X is something and X does something in this manner. First is baaad. The second will make the reader sigh happily and unzip their pants. +Let me restate that this is not advice I expect many people to like, let alone take. This will take more time because there isn't a formula to follow, like with ""The Paragraph"". Nevertheless, I do believe that there are enough serious authors on this site who might just appreciate these words enough to take them to heart, and from there take them to pen. If you remember anything from this essay, let it be: show, don't tell. I will be elated, and, more importantly, your readers will not be disappointed.

This is based on the real (not fantasy) experiences of my wife and I, as well as the many people we have corresponded with who also enjoy this sexual scene. We decided I should write this more as a descriptive clips to some of the erotic interludes we have experienced ( size, anal, orgasm denial, B&D, light S&M, oral, creampie, humiliation, and the like). Keep in mind that these all revolve around her dominance and my submissiveness- while being a cuckold. I hope this flows smoothly. Depending on the feedback for each I will write the full descriptive stories surrounding these events. As always we would appreciate this feedback as well as the sharing of true experiences and/or desires you and your spouse have on the topic. +Some quick background on us- My wife and I have been happily married for 11 years and have ""actively"" been involved with cuckolding and femdom for the better part of 6 years. For us, as well as for others with similar sexual desires, this has become a major part of our sex lives- but not fully. I have always had submissive tendencies and my wife has always fantasized of sex with other men (including venturing away from my limited size and the erotic feelings she has when dominating me and watching my arousal). +My wife does not take a ""perm ant"" lover (someone she will spend a lot of time with) nor does she desire to. She has always chosen her stud but with some input from myself- remember, this is a shared fantasy. The size of the mans cock is not always the main point involved although in our case it plays a large roll (I am well under 5 inches). Just the thought of having the forbidden sexual contact with another man (with me either forced to watch or not allowed ) greatly excites my wife. For us, I am always present or in the vicinity. Our relationship is strong and to us this is no different than engaging in other fetishes. +THE AROUSAL +As I eluded to earlier, my wife's arousal surrounds several key points. 1.) equipment wise I am certainly on the small end. After having become accustomed to my size for many years my wife is deeply aroused to just see another mans larger cock. She says she is in another world when she can handle, suck and feel the size between her legs. 2.) the affect on my arousal is shared by the both of us. I become incredibly hard at just the thought of seeing my wife in the arms of another. I may be small in size but I produce a large amount of pre-cum and I have been know to have wet balls as a result! My says that as sexy as it is to be serviced by a real stud what puts her over the edge is knowing I am being forced to watch the process (or kept close but unable to see- such as in the corner, a closet, in the hallway...) +Seeing another man's larger cock is both sexy and humiliating to me. This combination turns me on a great deal, especially when I can see the look of pure lust in my wife's eyes. When she stares and gets wet I feel so humiliated and shamefully aroused at my inadequacy to pleasure her with my small cock. At this point I have the strong urge to come, although that is always up to my wife (or sometimes the stud!) As I get further into our past experiences you will see how this plays out... +VERBAL PLAY +We both find things spoken to add greatly to our excitement. I love to hear her voice- ""I need a real cock"", ""the only pleasure I can get from you is from your mouth"", ""watch him take me... watch him fuck your wife"", ""pull out that small cock and show susan... do it or else"". I will leave the rest to the descriptions of events below. +ALL THINGS ANAL +We are both anal erotic. One thing my wife has come to believe truly dominates and cuckolds a man is the use of the ass. 1.) When a woman receives the real- man's shaft anal in front of her husband she knows the cuckold is totally humiliated. To see his wife taken anally , in the most primitive of sexual eroticism, and have an orgasm is true submissiveness. 2.) to take her husband anally (or have her stud do it!!) is the total in control My wife makes sure I do not come in the process but she tries to keep me close. She also likes for me to experience not pain, but some degree of discomfort mixed in (you will see this as a recurring theme). She becomes even more wet when she sees me in this state and how it arouses me further by not only feeling it but seeing the heightened pleasure she also gets from it. +I have an anal fetish and my wife will therefore prevent me from having my cock anywhere near her ass- but she loves to make me watch her almost beg to have the stud place it there. She also performs this in ways were I can see everything. +Once when I was kneeling at the foot of the bed (tied of course) her stud was laying on his back with his legs hanging down to rest his feet on the floor to either side of my knees. My wife was over top of him as his large shaft went in and out of her ass as she rode him up and down. I could see every detail inches from my face as his strong hands grasped her hips. She was very verbal as I could smell her sex as it puddled in a stringy pool on his pubes. I could smell the muskiness of her ass as I watched her anus slide up and down his rod. I could see his body tighten and arch up as he yelled ""I'm cumming, I'm cumming!"" My shaft was soaked in my pre-cum as I heard my wife ""Yes! cum in my ass!"" She then settled al the way down, burying his shaft in her, as she rubbed her enlarged clit on his pubes until she had a ""fantastic"" orgasm. +Was this enough? No way. when she got off of him she took his still semi-haer cock in her hand and made me suck on it for awhile. I felt like I was about to cum as I tasted the mixture of her ass and his cum mixed on his manly shaft (minus the slight off-taste of the KY!) After this she got on all fours and arched her ass over my upturned face. ""I want you to suck every drop out of my ass"" is all I heard. I moved my lips to her puckered anus as it began to open and I could see her moist inner tissues begin to give up his seed. I hungrily ate and tried to rub off on the bedsheets as I was overcome with horniness.... +MORE LATER..." +137,Cum For Me (JOI Instructions),MsMorrigan,How To,2015-11-05,2015-11-05,2022-01-04 08:27:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/cum-for-me-joi-instructions,I tell you how to touch yourself for both our pleasures.,"['Fantasy', 'Joi', 'Masturbation']",4.2,"Hello there little slut.

It doesn't exist. It was solely created to frame this story. Any relation to any real product either actual or implied is completely coincidental. +My name is Dominia Sax and I have invented a new novelty sexual product called Cumgum. +It hit the market a few months ago. It has been a huge success. Or should I say: suck-sess. +Cumgum is a must buy for anyone who loves to eat cum. It solves the yearning for those who just can't get a load to eat when they are hungry to eat cum. And it is for anyone who wants to eat additional loads even if they are fortunate enough to have access to a load, but want more because one just isn't enough. +We are working on a slogan. So far we have, ""Cumgum is Yumyum."" +Each bite size chicklet is equivalent to about half a load of sperm. So the serving size is two pieces. But the feedback we often get is that three sticks of Cumgum is the best erotic serving. But to each their own. (Real hungry gum guzzlers will clearly devour more.) +Within thirty seconds of chewing a stick of Cumgum, the consistency in your mouth turns into a slimy, gooey glob of sperm. It isn't like normal gum. As you chew, it breaks down into a mucous-like mess. And the only thing to do with a slimy glob of a cum tasting goo in your mouth is to swallow! +Think of it like those hard candies that soften when you chew, only in this case, you are not swallowing sweetness, but rather you are eating cum. +And one great part of Cumgum is that it is made from real sperm! It's not an imitated or reproduced flavor from unnatural resources. It's not 'sperm- flavored'; it is real cum! Sperm from real men's testicles* preserved for your ultimate enjoyment, whenever you want it. +(*Note: Cumgum does not have any reproductive capabilities.*) +By now, you might have guessed that Cumgum is popular in D/S and kink scenarios. If you have, you are correct. +It's not just for vanilla sex play where swallowing a load of cum happens after a blow job. Think of the possibilities! +Do you control a partner who is afraid to swallow and just needs practice? +Serve them one stick at first; build them up to two sticks later. +Do you dominate a man who says he wants YOU to make him eat his cum? +Give him three sticks of Cumgum every night until HE asks you for permission to eat his cum. +Is your cuckold a fluffer? +Have your cuckold practice fluffing your dildo and give them two sticks of Cumgum to practice swallowing in case an accident happens. +Is your sissy in chastity? +Deny them from eating their own load even longer and have them chew three sticks every night before bed. +Is your sissy a cum eating cock slut? +Give them an additional load of four Cumgum sticks for each load they coax out of each dick they suck to an orgasm. +As the inventor of this product, people regularly ask me 'How do I best enjoy Cumgum?' +Well, I don't enjoy it at all. But as a dom, I use it regularly. Here are two ways I have some real fun with Cumgum: +I keep my sissy husband Patsy in chastity 24/7. Once a week, I supervise one hour of masturbation where the chastity device is unlocked and removed from his penis. Then for the next hour, he can touch himself wherever he wants- except his penis. Every 15 minutes, he gets two sticks of Cumgum. So after one hour, he has eaten four loads of cum. He says he hates eating cum. Yet, he has learned to please himself without touching his penis. I have watched him learn the eroticism of pinching his own nipples, the pain/pleasure of caressing-even squeezing-his own balls. He has learned how to trace circles around the rim of his own anus and massage his sphincter. And he is now shoving objects up his ass: butt plugs, dildos, vibrators...all for his own pleasure. +When the hour is up, he gets cocklocked for the next week. The ultimate goal is for him to achieve a sissygasm. A hands-free orgasm that he self initiated by masturbating and cumming without touching his penis. And when the time comes that he succeeds, I'm thinking he won't have to eat Cumgum anymore. Or, I'll come up with some new, fresh ideas. +So, I am using Cumgum as a tool to alter his behavior. Although, I'm predicting that when the day comes that he has a sissygasm, he'll be so hooked on the product, none of this will matter. +A second way I use Cumgum is to simulate Patsy's experience eating another man's cum as part of cuckolding. At first, I used to just chew several sticks to create a big load and then spit into Patsy's mouth. As if I'd just given a lover a blowjob and he needed to swallow the cum. Then I began chewing sticks and drooling loads in my panties for him to slurp out. As you can imagine, the cum simulation advanced from there. +So these are two ways I am using Cumgum. +I've noticed readers like to interact with stories and imagined it might be fun for readers to comment on HOW TO enjoy Cumgum? +How many sticks would you chew and what would happen to your load?" +139,Cunnilingus Crazy,redrider4u,How To,2003-08-07,2003-08-07,2022-01-04 08:27:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/cunnilingus-crazy,An intimate pleasure.,"['Gently Massaging', 'Lick Kiss', 'Move Back', 'Suck Lips']",4.3,"Performing cunnilingus upon your lover is one of the most intimate acts between two people. The giving and receiving of this pleasure draws both closer. The assumption of nakedness and being in bed are used in the following. +Depending on the extent of your relationship, she might need to reach a comfort level. There cannot be any doubt in her mind that you wish to pleasure her this way. Talk to her; tell her explicitly what you are going to do. Tell her how you desire her, want to pleasure her, to drink her, to kiss her deeply there; whisper all this to her. She wants to hear how you are going to please her, so oblige her. +How soon should you approach her there? There is no rule. Only you and she can decide when to go southward. Personally, I think that there should be wetness before you go there. Kiss her, touch her, taste her skin. Touch her breasts, love her nipples; respond to her. Make your pace the same as her pace. Kiss your way downward, slowly, enjoying all of her. The closer you get, the more her scent will reach you. Reach down, and gently touch her, and enjoy her wetness. Pause and move back up, kissing her, and tell her how much her scent arouses you. +(Ladies, I’m not going to get into a discussion about shaved or unshaven, but I highly recommend appropriate trimming and brushing in this area. It really helps!) +Slowly move back down her, until you are so close. Do not touch her there, but kiss the insides of her thighs, licking them, first one, then the other. Inhale her, and rub your lips all around her. Get between her legs and gently spread them. It’s also helpful to slip a pillow under her. Get oh, so close to her and gently blow into her. Spread her outer lips gently, and slip your tongue into her. Lap up her juices, and swish your tongue inside, enjoy the smoothness and taste of her. Suck on her inner lips, kissing them, pulling them gently. Lick and kiss her downward toward her anus. Go there if you wish. Come back up and drink of her some more. Listen to her responses; let them be your guide. Always be gentle, as she is tender around her lips. Careful with the use of teeth. She may move about, even buck a bit, perhaps even pull you closer, or guide you with her hands. Always respond to her wants, but remember, you are in control. Make sure you are comfortable, neck relaxed arms around her, holding her as you kiss and love her. +When she is ready, slip your index finger into her, your palm facing upward, gently, massaging her. Make a “come hither” motion with your finger, and you will be stimulating her “g spot.” At the right time, slip your middle finger into her, moving both fingers in opposite motion to each other. +When you and she are ready, move upward, and quickly lick her clitoris. You might have to pull her hood back a bit. This is her center, where most of her pleasure derives. Be gentle, but be relentless. Once you begin with her there, you must finish. You might pause, and tease her a bit, but always finish! Lick and kiss her slowly, then faster. Trace the letters of the alphabet there. Pause and lick and suck her lips again, then return. Now, take all of her around her clitoris and pull her into your mouth gently, nibbling on her and sucking her at the same time Use your lips, teeth, and tongue to ravish her there. No two women are the same, but she’ll orgasm, perhaps several times. You’ll know when from her actions. After her last orgasm, or when she asks you, leave her clitoris, as it will be very sensitive. Kiss her more around her lips, tasting her. Kiss your way back up to her, and hold her, gently kissing her. Whisper to her, and touch her, gently massaging her. Let her come down into your arms. +Once you’ve achieved intimacy with your lover, ask her what she desires. Initially she may be shy. Encourage her to tell you what she wants. Pleasing her just the way she desires will truly enhance the experience for both of you. If she says just do what you did, then you know you are on the right road to pleasing her. +These are the basics of cunnilingus. There can be much more.

You want to write but you can't. You have this piece you desperately want to get out, but, every time you sit down to it, you totally freeze. Or you can only write crap. Or you never seem to sit down to it at all because there's always a kitchen to tidy or a call you have to make and then the kids come home or you're too tired and somehow, you just never make it to the keyboard. +Or maybe you're the opposite -- you've always been prolific, churning out one piece after another but now, just at the point where everything should be flowing smoothly, it seems as though the well has dried right up. +Well, it's possible that you have writer's block. +It's also possible that you don't. +There are things that can stop you from writing that have nothing to do with writing, and all the advice and analysis and writing exercises in the world aren't going to help. +Before you frustrate the hell out of yourself, consider whether one of the following might account for why you're not writing: +NO TIME: This is a pretty obvious reason not to be writing, but one that is most often pooh-poohed as not being good enough. Rather than just whopping your limp carcass to sit upright in front of that monitor and create, try a more strategic approach. +Make a list of all the things you do during the day and how much time you spend doing them. Do you work eight or more hours? Do you commute back and forth? Do you have kids? Are you responsible for cooking, cleaning, and/or caring for a parent? Do you have friends, a spouse, or a pet that needs your attention from time to time? +Don't forget to add in office work you bring home and the number of hours you need to sleep in order to function and anything else you spend time doing during the week. If just reading the list makes you tired, then it should be no surprise that adding an hour of writing every day seems like nothing but a great, big, dreary burden. For now, maybe you should concentrate your energies on simplifying your life and making time (and space) for writing. +GRIEF, DEPRESSION, & ILLNESS: Another explanation for not writing that seems obvious from the outside is physical or mental anguish. It's sometimes appealing to think of throwing yourself into your work in these situations, to escape the pain or boost your spirits, but if it doesn't work out this plan can backfire and make us feel worse. If you can't write because of pain or sorrow, you may need to concentrate your energies on healing yourself before you can get back into writing. +NATURAL RHYTHM: Believe it or not, not all professional writers are prolific and it's possible that one short story a year is your natural rhythm. If nothing you've tried makes your productivity increase and pushing yourself to get more stuff out just makes you miserable, you might want to consider that the world has already seen a Jeffery Archer and a Stephen King, and it might be okay to allow yourself to write only as often as you enjoy it. +SOMETHING'S PERCOLATING/BRAIN'S RECHARGING: Here are two reasons for not writing that every writer can embrace and celebrate, because they mean that, to quote science fiction writer Spider Robinson, ""you ARE writing, you're just not TYPING yet."" But how do you tell the difference? Is this quiet spell the happy silence of little gray cells puttering away or is it the echoing silence of the void? Most writers get a feel for the idea percolation process, but it's a subtle distinction and hard to distinguish through a haze of writer's block panic. The other end of the process, brain recharging, may hit in the middle of a roll, after you've successfully completed one project with the intention of just breezing through to another. The sudden bout of tiredness, disinterest and the longing to be anywhere but in front of the word processor can be very panic-inducing, particularly when it goes on for a while. +Instead of jumping to conclusions on either front, give yourself a chance to sort things out. Take a break from writing for a while, test the waters occasionally, work on something else, but above all, listen to your inner voice. If it tells you nothing's broke, don't rush to fix it. +Now, if you've read through all of this and none of it applies to you, you might just be right about having writer's block. In that case, this How To is made for you. I hope the ideas help you, give you hope or at least take your mind off being blocked for a while. +Advice on getting off the block: +1\. Don't obsess on one thing -- have more than one project going at a time and if you get stuck on one, move to another. +2\. Commit to finishing everything you start -- if you've left a project, commit to returning to it; continue to work on the problem. +3\. Change the mode of putting down words -- if you're stuck on the word processor try a dictation machine or writing by hand; or change where you write -- go outside, or to a friendly coffee shop, or the library. +4\. Get some physical exercise -- go out and walk; mow the lawn -- physical activity of the pleasant and slightly mindless kind seems to precipitate mental activity of the kind that promotes creativity. +Okay, so those were good words and nice advice, but exactly are you supposed to _do_ when you have writer’s block? +Here are a few practical methods you can use to get started writing, or to free yourself from writer's block, or to explore new possibilities. Some demand a lot of time, but then the serious writer devotes a lot of time to learning the craft. + **Oral story telling to a friend** , followed by questions from the friend, followed by writing the story in detail based on the questions. + **Journal writing:** Write on a regular basis in a personal journal. Explore personal feelings, develop your thoughts, and record the happenings of the day. Underline any ideas you'd like to explore later in expanded writings. + **Spontaneous Prose Composition and Free Writing:** The aim of spontaneous prose composition is to work in a stead rush, not stopping to search for the right word or to think about grammar. Free writing does not attempt to focus on any object at all, as does spontaneous prose composition, but simply follows the mind's associations, writing them down, omitting nothing. + **Getting Words on Paper:** Most people get stuck writing because they have an internal censor who says, ""Wait-you can't write that shoddy sentence down. It's not smart/witty/concise/eloquent/perfect enough."" It's good to have a critical eye and high standards, but if you hold yourself to these standards all the time-even while jotting down first thoughts or a rough draft-it interferes with your creative juices. It's helpful to think of creating and critiquing as separate activities. First be creative. Get as many ideas on paper as you can. They don't have to be brilliant, original, well-formulated, or correct. Then when you're ready to be critical, you'll have lots of material to choose from. If the first four ideas are completely wacky and irrelevant, the fifth might just be useful and interesting. A few of your sentences might be usable the way they are-and lots more could be reworked into usable sentences. + **Using the senses:** Sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste. In erotic writing, it is very important to involve the senses in a scene. Concentrate on using all or any combination of them in a scene you are writing. Do not write anything other than this in the particular scene. + **Clustering:** Begin a cluster with a nucleus word. Select a word that is related to the topic you might like to write about. Record words that come to mind when you think of the word. Don't pick and choose; record every word. Circle each word as you write it, and draw a line connecting it to the closest related word. After 3 or 4 minutes of clustering, you probably will be ready to get going and write non-stop for 8 minutes. + **Sketching with words:** Carry a pocket-size notebook with you at all times (writer's journal) to record whatever catches your attention. Sketching can help you get over dry spells when you can't think of anything to write. Record actions, activities, characters, conversations, and events. In other words, record life as you see it happening all around you from the mundane to the extraordinary. + **Recording dreams:** Most of us do not remember dreams on a regular basis. To do so we must write them down. Keep a notebook or writer's journal by your bed, and if you are awakened by a dream, write it down. At first you may not remember much, but once you begin writing the occasional dreams you recall, you will begin remembering more. Keeping a dream journal has other advantages besides offering an incentive to write. Aside from offering whatever insights, if any, dreams may give you to your inner life; dream journaling is important for three reasons. First, it is another form of writing, and during the early stages of writing, the more you do, of any kind, the better. Second, dreams offer several literary devices to use in your work. They are filled with exaggeration, with impossibilities, with cinematic cuts. Third, dreams themselves are keys to the unconscious and can add dimension to your characters. + **Revise:** When you are ready for this process, take a deep breath, calm yourself and say ""don't worry, be happy!"" This step will be the most time- consuming. Here you will correct your grammar, organize your paragraphs in logical order, and delete or modify words for clarity. Use active verbs to improve the strength of your writing. Think about your intended audience; write for their level of understanding. Then leave it for a day or two, revise again. You will be amazed at how revising helps you get into the writing mood again. + **Piecework:** Sometimes, starting at the beginning induces Perfect Draft Syndrome. It may be easier to get started if you approach the task sideways. If you've got a plan for the article or manual, choose a section from the middle or a point you know well and start there. Then do another section. After you've gained some confidence, you can work on the opening and smooth out the transitions. + **EXERCISES:** Here are some useful exercises to help kick the block. You'll get out of these exercises as much as you put in. If you like an exercise, do it several times. A painter may sketch a face a dozen times and each time is new. If you don't like something, still give it a try. Don't use your dislikes as obstacles. In general, plan to spend 20 or 30 minutes on each exercise. But if something particularly stimulates you, of course, keep going. + **1.** Pick a story from your life and tell it to someone. Afterwards, ask them what else they want to know: anything about the action, conversation, character, or place. After this sorting out, write it down. + **2.** Scan your mind for an event that you have been bursting to tell-- a story that arouses strong emotions. Now visualize it. Then pick some point in the action and start writing. As you write, continue to see the activity you describe. If an idea or thought about one of the characters or about an object in the area grabs your attention, write about it until drawn back to the main event. Whenever your mind is drawn away from the story, let it follow the flow of association. + **3.** If you're having trouble finding an object to write about, practice free writing 10 minutes a day for a week. Simply write down the free associations that pop into your head. The mind, eventually tired of babbling, will focus on an object and kick in. + **4.** Each day, for 2 weeks find a different place to sketch with words. For example, sit at a lunch counter and observe what is happening. Write as fast as you can. Note conversations, but do not try to write them word for word. Get a few broad strokes, note the gist of the conversation, a few exchanges, note the mannerisms, or any odd expressions. Mainly concentrate on the ambience- the look and feel of the place. Is it mirrored in the look of the customers? What details of the physical setting are you drawn to? Which of those details turn you off? Is it very modern with clean lines, or old and rundown? Note what the waiters looks like. Do they reflect the place? Pick one. What does this person look like? How does he or she stand, straight or slouched? Does he or she talk much? Loudly? Any peculiar accent? Are his or her clothes clean? Greasy? Food splattered? What does the place smell like? Does it remind you of any place you've been before? KEEP YOUR SKETCHES VARIED: a street scene, a coffee shop, a library, a bar, a gym, a park, an office, etc. In some of your sketches, focus on process and activity; in others, focus on place. Focus on characters in others. + **5.** When you go to a grocery store, jot down your observations in a notebook such that later you'll be able to compose three paragraphs based on your experience. In one paragraph, describe a loner's looks and behaviour; in another, a couple's looks and interactions. In the third paragraph, describe how an employee communicates with the customers. + **6.** Take one of your sketches and transform it into a prose poem. No, this is not as hard as it looks. Try it. You don't actually have to do it well you know. + **7.** Pick a fast moving activity--crowds moving through a department store, work at a construction site, a sporting event-- and take notes. No later than the next day, write up your notes. + **8.** Observe an event carefully without taking notes or sketching. Five to ten minutes later write it up from memory. + **9.** Go to five very different public places and transcribe as much of the conversation as you can. As soon as you can, transcribe your notes, filling in whatever words you missed, based on memory or likely guesswork. + **10.** Write a short story about a person or group of people you observed during one of your sketching sessions. Let the plot be advanced through the building of the character arc. + **11.** Take any public domain tale and translate it into a contemporary story or take a story from the Bible and rework it into a contemporary tale. + **12.** Find an old ballad that you like and transform it into a short story or a tale told in free verse. + **13.** Keep a dream journal for at least three weeks. At first you may not remember any dreams; then, fragments; then, as your practice recalling and writing them down, you will find yourself remembering more and more of them. + **14.** Write a story or essay in imitation of your favourite author. Pick a theme and/or characters that typify this writer or take a published story with well-defined characters and a strong narrative and rewrite it in imitation of one of your favourite authors. As you do this, you will find yourself changing the characters and story line. + **15.** Sound, like visuals, can help create a sense of place or set the stage for activity. Write a short scene that begins with a sound that indicates an activity. Make that activity an important element within the scene. + **16.** Write a short scene that layers sounds on one another. Use the sounds to create tension. + **17.** Write a short action scene in which sound and visuals are integrated throughout. + **18.** Describe he town you grew up in--the streets, the shops, schools, churches, rivers, bridges, houses, people. Don't mention your emotions; don't be sentimental. Then for half a page, indicate a place in the above sketch where something happened. Map out the event with special attention to the physical details of the setting. It need not be a big event-- your shattering a window or seeing a teacher you had a crush on kissing a cop will do. Have you described the childhood place vividly? Do you mention enough details to construct a visual impression? Do you engage other senses, not only sight? Read your descriptions slowly. Are you there? + **19.** Make a one-page list of all the objects you remember from your childhood home. Don't use any particular order or many adjectives. Don't censor yourself-- something seemingly unimportant may evoke strong impressions. Read your list and circle the objects that evoke the strongest feelings and memories of events. What are these events? Do you see a story lurking there? Now write one page and describe one of these events. Rely on topography. Where exactly did it happen? What objects were involved? What people played a part in that event? Make sure you haven't used sentimental vocabulary. It's fine to be sentimental, but mentioning the sentiments won't give them to your reader. Connecting the details with the events might. + **20.** Write down your first three memories. Can you make a story out of them? Try. Why do you think you still remember these things when you've forgotten so many others? Even if you aren't exactly sure why you remember these or the exact details of the memory, keep going. Imagine that you remember more than you do. Later on, you might want to expand this writing and then even later on rewrite this in the third person and forget that it's you. If your drafts sound grave and heavily psychological, go back and lighten them up by inserting funny insights. + **21.** Write down the first dream you can remember having. Don't mention the fact that it's a dream you are writing about. Turn it into a story. Remember that in dreams you can't be held accountable for making everything plausible. Strange things happen, and not everything is explained. Don't punctuate, just drift words and images together into a dreamlike stream of consciousness. You can't remember all the details of your early dreams- or maybe you can? - but don't let that deter you from writing at least two pages. If you can manage to get into a primitive dreamlike state of mind you'll create strange connections and images. This approach could be productive for helping you develop unique moments in stories. + **22.** Recall a physical or verbal fight, and construct it as one scene. + **23.** Think about an incident that you avoid remembering-- or can't clearly remember-- and write about it. Write about a moment of terror you experienced, or about a defeat that hurts your pride. You can choose a terrible incident that, though crucial to you, you could not witness (such as the expected death of a close relative). Even if you are afraid to think about something--or especially if you are-- muster the courage to plunge into the middle of your frightful memory. You will come up with something that matters to you, and if you evoke it clearly, it should matter to the reader, too. + **24.** Imagine some event that could have happened to you but did not-- something that you wanted to happen or feared happening. First, make up the basic outline of the event, and then incorporate true details. Put your teapot and cats into the story; they won't sue you. Your knowledge of these details will help convince the reader of the truthfulness of the story's main event. Don't spend too much time on introducing this event or on drawing conclusions. Just give us the scene with your desire (or fear) acted out. Keep yourself as the main protagonist. Desire and fear are the MOST productive dynamos of fiction and imagination. Around the desire or fear you can easily integrate the character, conflict, setting-- all the basic elements of fiction easily fall into place once you have a character with a strong motive. + **25.** Think of someone who has meant a lot to you. Pick a crucial moment in your relationship with this person and then tell it to someone. Talk about the difference this person made in your life. If unusual or striking, describe his or her habits, looks, and gestures. Now, write it down. + **26.** Write a profile of someone who had a big influence on your life. You can do this in one of two ways: either write a paragraph on each important aspect of their character, or illustrate their character by describing an event in which the person played a pivotal role. + **27.** Write an account of an event to which you were a witness. Write it in both past and present tenses. + **28.** Write the close up of an activity. Then pull the camera back and see more of it. Describe it. + **29.** Describe with care the most ordinary items you can think of. Look at them as though they were strange and unusual. Conversely, describe extraordinary things--meteors, rockets, and so on-- in familiar language as just another stone ore piece of rolled sheet metal. This will help you learn to control your distance from the objects you describe. If you are too close, you may not see the shape; if you are too far, you may not see the details. Get into the habit of shifting the focus away from what would be your automatic focus, and you will see items in a fresh way. Practice the art of creating surprising details. Skip something obviously important and use something apparently unimportant. + **30.** If you live in a rural area or have visited the countryside, reflect on a time you were especially aware of the natural surroundings and felt at one with them. It may have been an hour lying underneath a tree, a day spent canoeing or hiking in the woods. It may have been a month in the country when time slowed down and you became intimately aware of the life around you. Write about it. + **31.** If you live in an urban area or have spent time in a city, describe a street fair or neighbourhood celebration, or a time you roamed city streets absorbing sights and sounds. + **32.** Write an account of a process. Perhaps the process is a skill you have such as sewing or painting. Perhaps it is a process you observed over a period of time, such as the construction of a skyscraper or the erosion of a hill. + **33.** Take a story that you've already written, reread it, and then visualize it part by part. As you visualize a part, write it down. Repeat the process until you've satisfied yourself that you've achieved the right level of detail, and then read the first and last versions to someone. Ask for reactions. + **34.** Experiment with writing at different times of day to find which works best for you. Practice writing for longer and longer periods. Experiment with different suggested ways of coping with writer's block. + **35.** Exchange work with a friend, and see how many irrelevant words you can cut from each other's works. How many clichés or hackneyed phrases can you identify? + **36.** If you are working on a novel or memoir, attempt to identify irrelevant episodes or redundancies. + **37.** Take something you've written - story, essay, poem- and identify those places where you have used the passive voice. Substitute active voice in every instance. Does it strengthen the writing, or does it subvert its meaning? Look at the same work and see where you can substitute stronger words for those you have. + **38.** Take a story you've written and change the person of narration. Does it work better in first or third person? + **39.** Take a story you've written or a story in Public Domain and heighten the tone and mood by exaggerating passages. + **40.** Take a newspaper editorial and put it in the mouth of a low status character. How would that person express his or her views? Would they use different words? How might they pronounce some of those words? Exaggerate in this exercise. + **41.** Take a page from a favourite story with narration and dialogue written in standard English. Rewrite it from the point of view of someone who speaks with an accent or in a dialect, preferably someone from your own locale or region. Spell some of the words phonetically. + **42.** Complete any open-ended sentence in as many ways as you can. Some examples of open-ended sentences are: I wonder how..., Too many people..., I just learned..., Television is..., One place I enjoy..., The good thing about... + **43.** Make a character visible through her surroundings. If she loves plants and cats and hates people, her house might assume certain traits. Sketch the house, listing the sights, smells, and sounds. Afterwards, read the sketch. Do you give precise details? Rather than ""the place smelled stuffy,"" do you show the stuffiness? + **44.** On 5 half-pages, describe someone's hands so that we get an idea that he or she is (a) nervous, (b) artistic, (c) rich (d) poor, (e) ill. This exercise will broaden the range of physical details you use when describing characters. Since what you can accomplish by describing noses and eyes may be too much strain on these organs, it's good to let the whole body do the work of developing the character. Just think of the skills you have in your fingers. Pay attention to appearance and motion. Are the hands expressing impulses? Can we see all you say? Rather than saying the hands are nervous (graceful, sensual, determined and so on-- adjectives that can rarely be visualized), do you give us a picture of a forefinger digging its bitten nail into the side of the thumb? It's all right to say that hands are nervous, but show that too. + **45.** Critique. Take a random story and write down your views about it. This may be about the theme, characters, atmosphere, descriptions, vocabulary, just about anything. + **46.** Have a friend give you three random words, then use those words in any way, shape, or form. Write a vignette. A poem. A novel. Use the past participle of the word. Use the poetic concept that means nothing to anyone but yourself. Go nuts. The idea is to shake loose parts of your brain you weren't even considering using for fiction, without the pressure of coming up with a premise or concept, and it can produce some surprising results. + **47.** Start a spontaneous and free-form dialogue between your conscious self (""I"") and your unconscious creative self. Give your creative self a separate identity, even a name or let the name come out of the dialogue. You can do the dialogue any way that's free-flowing and comfortable -- writing, tape recording, on the computer -- but you want to express it some way and also have a record of it afterward. After you've finished your dialogue, sit down and describe the personalities of the two speakers and the tone of the conversation. Two friends chatting? Mortal enemies baring teeth? You get the idea. + **48.** Freewrite. Choose one sentence in a paragraph and write a paragraph about it. Then choose one sentence from that paragraph and do it again. + **49.** People who tell you that physical exercise is important for mental activity are telling the truth. If nothing's happening on the computer screen or paper, take a walk around the block. Hit the treadmill or tennis courts or drive to the gym. But take your notebook with you. Fresh blood will be flowing through your brain and jogging might just jog something loose in your head. + **50.** Flip through a magazine. Cut out pictures, headlines, even certain blocks of text. Now write a short story based on your clippings. +Now that you have so many ways to get rid of the dreaded Writer’s Block, just kiss the damn thing goodbye and happy writing! +* * * * * * * * * * + _Author's note:_ I would love to hear your comments about this piece.

Simple & fun tricks to spice up your cyber sex. 2. A few more simple ways to spice up your cyber sex.,"['Cybersex', 'Sex Advice']",2.96,"Ah cyber, back in the early days of computing, (I'm talking Commodore 64, DOS and green glowing text on black screens) it must have been difficult to imagine the dynamic sexual potential the computer keyboard and screen held. The simple thought that by properly touching just the right keys on your keyboard you could inspire someone else, perhaps thousands of miles away, to have an orgasm was unfathomable at the time. Of course, all that is now old news as the computer has brought on a whole new way of having sex. Who knows, the next generation of computers may have their own built in vibrating cocks and pussies operating by remote control from your partner's keyboard. +Even now, with some services, sounds, pictures and even video are easily transmitted within an instant message allowing your cyber to become a sophisticated multimedia fuck. Of course such extravagant productions may not work well in an office setting or with a spouse sitting nearby reading the newspaper. So for the many people who, either by choice or lack of computer savvy, simply must use the words in the instant message window there are some things you can do to spice up your cyber love. +I start with a warning, a real problem most people face with text based relationships is that tone does not easily translate into a textual conversation. Voice inflection is lost here, so when you say ""Hey, I like your hat,"" the person you are talking to can't hear you laughing as you say it. They may really believe you like their hat. So be sure when you try some of these techniques that you are messaging with a person who won't suddenly disappear forever if they misinterpret what you are trying to do. Also, some people are easier to impress than others, so don't be devastated when your cutely creative addition to your session goes unnoticed. +Believe it or not, cyber sex, much like real sex, can become stale and boring if you fall into a rut, doing the same things over and over. I mean consider sex while hanging from a chandelier, take it from me, the first time you do it, wow it is sensational, so good you want to do it again. It's wonderful, but come about the fifth or sixth time you do it you begin to notice that it hurts your hands and about the tenth time you prepare to do it, you check the TV guide first to see if anything is good on TV that you can watch instead of having sex while hanging from the chandelier. Well, because it's like that with cyber too, I thought I might suggest a few easy additions to a session to add a tiny bit of wow back into your relations. +Assuming most people know how to modify fonts, text color, background color and that they understand some of the basic text associations such as ALL CAPS is equivalent to shouting and the lower case ""i"" is submissive I offer the following: + **Turn Off The Lights** +While many of you do this much of the time in real sex, in cyber the lights are on. Sure while sitting in front of your screen you may have the lights off around you, but if you are working in a standard instant message window the text is appearing on a garish, bright screen. Let's get romantic and turn out the lights on screen. All you do is switch your background to black and your text to white, yellow or other light color that will contrast nicely in the darkness. +Now of course when you send the message, your partner's screen view will change, but their response will switch the screen back to the white background. Simply repeat the change and hopefully they will pick up on the fact that the lights are out, or perhaps you've covered their eyes with a blindfold. + **Whisper Sweet Nothings** +If your cyber scenario has you in a public place where you must be quiet, or you simply want to whisper softly into your lover's ear, whisper to them. To whisper all you need to do is reduce the contrast in your text, or in other words if you are working on a white background change from a black font to a light gray. Your cyber partner will need to move closer to the screen to read (hear) your whisper. Of course the all caps or bold all caps would be shouting instead of whispering, perhaps appropriate if you are fucking while going over Niagara Falls in a barrel. +Those were just two simple and fun ways to spice up a cyber scenario. I'm sure you've played with some others, perhaps changing a font color or with emoticons, yes those little faces you make with punctuation marks : ) for instance. Of course some of these tricks may be difficult if you are typing single handedly, I'd recommend using two hands on the keyboard and excite your cyber partner first. Once he or she is finished, then you let him or her dazzle you. + +" +142,Cyberjacker,Badlands1,How To,2020-10-29,2020-10-29,2022-01-04 08:27:31,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/cyberjacker,"Spin your Web, Swingerman!","['Hugh Mungus', 'Humor', 'Internet', 'Las Vegas', 'Satire', 'Sin City', 'Swinger', 'Swingers', 'Swinging', 'Vegas']",1.78,"The cunt juice was fresh.

They can be used by themselves, or while performing oral sex on your partner. Although not necessary, it is better to perform these using a lubricant. Not only can these pleasure your man, but can pleasure you as well. With the following techniques, I am sure you can't go wrong, no matter where you are. +PRESSURE: +With one hand, pull the shaft's skin toward the base and wrap the fingers of this hand around the base to act as a cock ring. Using the other hand, rhythmically pick various points along the shaft of the penis and squeeze opposite sides of the penile shaft at these points, releasing pressure either immediately or after only a brief period of time. +FIRE: +Rub the penis between both palms, as if rubbing two sticks together to create fire. Be sure to use plenty of oil. +GLAND HEAD MASSAGE: +Hold the penis in one hand with the head sticking up. Using the well-oiled palm of your other hand, slowly and sensitively massage the glans head. Reverse directions every once in a while. +HEALING STROKE: +With the penis resting on the man's stomach, take one hand and cup the testicles. Then glide the heel of the palm of the other hand up and down the underside of the penis. +TWIST AND SHOUT: +Pull the skin of the penis toward the base with one hand. With the other hand, corkscrew the penis. This can be done with the thumb and first finger or with your entire grip. +ANVIL STROKE: +Start with one hand lightly grasping the top of the penis. Then stroke the penis from the top, all the way to the bottom. When you hit the bottom, release the penis. Meanwhile, bring your other hand to the top of the penis and repeat. +BOOKENDS: +Place both of your hands side by side against his shaft like a pair of bookends. Now push hard against his penis. Then lift your hands up and down. +DOORKNOB: +Turn the head of his penis like you're trying to open an oily doorknob. Now try turning the other way. Repeat. This stroke is sometimes improved by using the other hand to stretch the skin of the penis toward the base. +DOUBLE WHAMMY: +Bring your well lubricated hands down on his shaft. Some penises are so big they require both hands; if your partner's doesn't, then use the other hand to caress and lightly flutter his testicles, or tighten around the base of his shaft. If both hands fit along the length of the shaft then move them together, up and down, in the typical pumping motion. Pretend you're holding a baseball bat and are about to score a grand slam. You can also vary the directions of your hands: one up, one down at the same time. +MILKING: +Start with one hand lightly grasping the bottom of the penis. Then stroke the penis from the bottom all the way to the top. When you hit the top, release the penis. Meanwhile, bring your other hand to the bottom of the penis and repeat. +PERPETUAL PENETRATION: +Start with one hand lightly grasping the top of the penis. Then stroke the penis from the top all the way to the bottom, letting his penis ""penetrate"" into your fist on each stroke. Before the head of his penis pops out of your hand, bring the other hand up for the next penetration. This way it seems to him like he is penetrating deeper and deeper into an infinite vagina. Make sure you keep the penetration continuous. +RING: +Make a ring with your thumb and forefinger and pump up and down with it. When you get to the top, close the ring. Then make him squeeze his way in as you slide back down to the bottom. +SHAFT: +Stroke only his shaft, ignoring his glans head. You will notice his glans head swelling and turning red. When it's bright red, use Doorknob, Glans Head Massage, or Perpetual Penetration. +SHUTTLE PENIS: +Take the penis in both hands, fingers lightly touching the sides of the shaft. Now flick the penis back and forth between your two hands by holding onto the loose skin of the shaft. Do this stroke for a while to allow tension to build. +SPOT PINCH: +Lightly and slowly run a finger up the underside of his penis. Ask him to tell you where the most sensitive spot is. Pinch, squeeze, nibble and tease that spot." +144,The Dark Kiss: A Guide to Analingus,Selena_Kitt,How To,2006-03-31,2006-03-31,2022-01-04 08:39:56,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-dark-kiss-a-guide-to-analingus,Pleasure your lover through oral-anal contact.,"['Anal', 'Anal Play', 'Anal Sex', 'Anal-Oral', 'Analingus', 'Anilingus', 'Anus', 'Ass-To-Mouth', 'Rimjob', 'Rimming']",4.56,"Before you say, ""Ewwww!"" hear me out—it may not be your thing, but then again, if you're open-minded and experimental, just think, you might find an amazing new sex act to add to your repertoire! If the thought makes you squirm, and not in a good way, then go ahead and click back—but if you're even a little bit curious about oral-anal contact, then read on, and let's find out about ""analingus,"" as it is technically called, (and yes, that is the correct spelling, look it up!) or more commonly ""rimming"" in porn and erotica circles. +Remember when oral sex used to be a ""no-no?"" (Okay, maybe you're not old enough to remember, but it's true!) There was a time when it was outlawed in most states, and it was considered a perversion. No one admitted they did it, even if they did. Can you imagine your sex life without oral? I didn't think so! Rimming (I'll use this colloquial phrase from now on) is one of those sex acts that still remains in the sexual dark ages. It's time we brought it into the light, for those who want to venture into that arena. There isn't (and shouldn't be) any shame associated with any sexual act—rimming included. +Still, feeling some hesitation and even a little embarrassment about rimming is normal, for the very reason I state above—the anus is one part of our body that we have internalized a great deal of shame about in our culture. It takes overcoming some of that to even entertain the idea, let alone actually attempt it. +You might want to try some other forms of anal play first—fingers or toys—before you move on to anal-oral contact. In fact, I would bet if you're actually curious about it, and not just reading this for the gross-out factor like someone slowing down at the scene of an accident, you probably have already been involved in some sort of anal play. +Sometimes couples fall into this experience through a delightful mishap—he is going down on her, and—oops! His tongue slips down lower than either of them expected, and she jumps and moans and they both look at each other like: ""Wow! What was that?!"" It can happen the other way around, too, if he likes to have his balls and perineum licked and sucked—especially if it's dark! Either way, this happy accident can lead to a desire to explore this idea further. +If you're interested in it, but your partner isn't, let it go. One sex act shouldn't ever come between you, and who can enjoy something if they know the other person isn't enjoying themselves, too? But if you're both curious and interested, just not sure how to proceed, then talk about it. Who wants to give? Who wants to receive? Sometimes it's both of you, sometimes it's just one of you. If there are concerns about hygiene, then read on, because I'm about to assuage them. +The biggest fear with oral-anal contact is feces. (Some of us won't even put food that's fallen on the floor into our mouths!) If you can get past the psychological aspect of it, the reality is that with proper hygiene, there is very little danger of coming in contact with feces. Why? Fecal material is actually stored above the rectum in the colon. There are only trace amounts that remain in the rectum or on the anus, which can easily be washed away. +Infection is the real concern—the possibility of introducing bacteria into our digestive tract from oral-anal contact. The dangerous bacteria are E. coli, Salmonella, intestinal parasites like Giardia, and of course, AIDS. The good news is you can seriously minimize your risks. If you are in an exclusive, monogamous relationship, and you know that neither of you is HIV positive, has any STDs, and are free of parasites, careful washing should be sufficient. +You can shower together, which is always fun foreplay, anyway. One technique I've learned is to fill the tub halfway, squat down, and insert a soapy finger into the anus. Turn your finger around a few times, so the water and the soap wash away any residue in and around the area. +Some couples prefer to do enemas, which clean out the entire colon. You can actually buy disposable enemas, or if you're in this for the long-haul, get yourself a kit. They're easy to use—while on your hands and knees, you just insert the little nozzle into the anus, and squeeze the bottle to push the fluid into the rectum. You will feel the urge to go after a few moments, and you can sit in the toilet and just allow the fluid to drain. +If you're still hesitant, you can use a dental dam—a kind of rubber sheet that works sort of like a condom for the mouth. You can approximate one of these using unlubricated condoms (don't use any lubricated ones or any with spermicide!) or even just some Saran wrap! Kind of like sex with a condom, it doesn't feel quite the same, but it's still pretty good—and it's 100% safe. +Now, on to the fun part—actually trying it! It helps to get relaxed. A sensual massage from the giver to the receiver can only be helpful. Whatever you can do to relax each other, do it! My favorite position is doggie style—for two reasons: 1.) it provides maximum exposure but still allows for genital play and 2.) it is the most vulnerable. +One of the turn-ons of rimming can be the surrender in it. You are opening up parts of yourself to a lover that have never been touched—not only that, they have been culturally shunned and rejected. Many of our associations with the anus are negative: that's a ""bad"" part of the body or that part of us isn't ""ok."" This is a way to give yourself wholly and completely to your partner, and for your partner to accept you that way as well. I've also heard couples say that this position works well, especially the first time—if the receiver needs to hide their face in a pillow at first to deal with any shame that comes up. +Other positions you can try are doggie-style, but standing up. Just make sure you have something to hold onto that's stable! You can also lie on your back, but I would suggest using a pillow under the hips to raise everything up. I've also known couples who can do a sixty-nine position, but unless you do lots of yoga or are a gymnast, I don't know that you want to try this on the first go! +So, now you're relaxed, you're positioned... it's the moment you've been waiting for. Don't rush it—ease into things, so to speak. Kiss and touch and lick all around the area first, starting wide and moving in—begin with the hips, the lower back, the thighs, and of course, the ass. Nibble, suck, stroke with your hands, and move in, slowly, toward the anus, a little bit at a time. +It's good to start with kisses. Just feather little kisses around the anus. Pay attention to your lover's response. If they back away, start wide and circle in again. Sometimes you have to build up to it. You can also try some genital stimulation first to heighten arousal— with your fingers, though, not with your tongue. Unless you are using a dental dam or a facsimile, once your lips and tongue have touched the anus, you don't want to put them anywhere else until you're done. +If your lover is enjoying the kisses, move on to using your tongue. Flatten your tongue and press it against the anus. You can wiggle it back and forth gently, or start just by licking with the flat of your tongue. How does this feel? Um—fantastic! The anus has lots and lots of nerve endings, and they are highly sensitive to touch. Kind of like with oral sex—fingers are ok, but a tongue? Oh, heaven! +Once your lover is starting to respond to your licking (moaning and squirming and arching the back are all very common now!) you can try pointing your tongue and sliding it into the anus. This is kind of the scary part for the giver, but remember, you've done everything possible to be clean—let down your inhibitions, and listen to the sound of your lover's response. That's usually enough to keep the giver motivated to keep giving! +You can (and should) keep stimulating your lover's anus until they tell you to stop. You can keep up manual genital stimulation as well (or your partner can do it for themselves). Having an orgasm with a tongue sliding in and out of your anus—I just can't do it justice in a description, I'm sorry! Fireworks, weak knees, ringing in the ears, you name it. +When you're completely done, the giver should wash their mouth out with an antiseptic mouthwash, just to be on the (very!) safe side. Listerine is probably the best (I'm not doing a commercial, honest—but anything that tastes that bad has to kill more germs, right?) If your hands have come in contact with the anus, you should also wash those. +Rimming can be a very pleasurable experience, if you're willing to give it a try. There are definitely very safe ways to practice it, minimizing all the risks—and the benefits are extraordinary! You can have deeper intimacy, more pleasure, and you now have something new to add to your bag of tricks to keep your sex life from growing dull! +\-------------------- + **Bibliography** +Taormino, Tristan.

First, my congratulations to you. For authors -- those who live for it, those who dabble, or those who are just testing the waters -- it's an accomplished feeling, right? If you're like me, you're never _completely_ satisfied with how it turns out, but that finished project has a way of shining. Whether it's a diamond in the rough or a precious gem, it radiates with a pristine beauty that sometimes only _you_ can see and appreciate. +Going into writing for anything, you undoubtedly have some expectations. You're dreaming of a 5 star rating, dozens of glowing comments praising you and your work, and countless people pressing that ""Favorite"" button. Unrealistic, perhaps, but I know _I'm_ guilty as charged for dreaming just that. More often than not, however, you're going to have to deal with a few sour apples. More than likely, even more than a few. +There's never enough preparation for seeing what you perceive as a rejection to something you sometimes put your blood, sweat and tears into building. Melodramatic, maybe, but you spend innumerable hours growing and nurturing your story, polishing it to a gleam, that it becomes your baby. And what happens when someone makes the mistake of picking on your baby? You go fierce mama bear on their asses! (Or at least you fantasize about it... come on, admit it.) +It's one thing to experience rejection, though. How do you _deal_ with it is the question. + ******* + **Ratings:** They can be so kind... and so, so cruel. The majority of views will _not_ result in votes, as you may have already noticed while stalking your Current Submissions page. As you also may know, it only takes a few votes to have your rating rocketing into the stratosphere where you're rewarded with that coveted red H, or plummeting into the bowels of voting hell. Or, the most depressing of all, getting no votes and getting stuck with three X's. (Not the naughty kind.) +There can be several reasons that factor into a low rating. Is your story riddled with spelling and punctuation errors? Do your plot and/or characters develop smoothly and at a nice pace? Is your story in the right category? Is it too short? Too long? What _is_ a too short or too long story? Or maybe your story is perfectly fine as is and you've prompted the green-eyed monster to pounce. That one's comforting but the most likely case if your story is great is that it simply doesn't rev that particular person's engine. +The sad truth is as follows: not _everyone_ is going to love your story. The quicker you accept that, the quicker you'll be able to appreciate those that _do_. +There are steps you can take to improve your rating. If your story _is_ riddled with errors, an editor is at your disposal. There are hundreds of capable and competent ones that you can peruse to your heart's content until you find one that clicks. If you're unsure of what category your story belongs in, you can ask for a recommendation in the Notes field of your submission, or simply read through each genre until you find one that fits. As for length... Well, I'm still working on figuring that one out but more on that later. +In closing, the ratings are a fickle mother. They will fluctuate, doing the hot 'n cold routine better than Katy Perry sang about, but there's always hope on the horizon that they will rise, rise, rise. + **Favorites:** If you've gone onto your Recent Activity page and seen that someone has favorited you or your story, then you know the sizzling excitement that comes with it. You know how proud you are that someone has taken such interest in you and your work. It's a powerful incentive to keep on writing more stories that are worthy of even more favorites. It becomes addicting (at least for me) and you keep up with the stalking, jonesing for another stroke to your ego. +The withdrawal to that is devastating. +Even worse, when a story you think is going to be bombarded by scores of favorites receives no such thing, the blow to your pride might just be irreparable. You start questioning whether it's good enough, wondering why it's not getting the recognition you believe it deserves. Then there's the flipside, when someone _does_ favorite your story, then turns around and _un_ -favorites it. Another blow to your pride, accompanied by a rusted lance piercing your heart, and something I've experienced quite a few times. +Know that some people simply choose not to favorite stories. Sometimes they're content with a vote or a comment or just reading your material is enough for them. Know also that, in the cases concerning the _un_ -favoriting, there are times when they turn around and again favorite it. There have been several very good stories I've read that have had an abhorring lack of favorites but I've come to realize that they have no bearing on the quality of your work. Let it speak for itself and you'll find that you can appreciate the favorites you do receive all the more, but won't sweat it so much when you don't. + **Comments:** They have the power to make you feel ten feet tall, or two measly inches. It never fails to amaze me anytime someone lets me know how much my story touched them, or how emotionally involved they were right along with my characters. Those people have forever endeared themselves to me and I am eternally grateful for their kind words. Especially when they ask for more! +It also never ceases to amaze me how nasty some comments can get. Here's where word count can often come into play. I've written a couple of stories that are around 17,000 words and that's the length I'm most comfortable with on Lit. But in a couple of instances I've tried my hand at just a little over 1,000 words, and on one such occasion a person commented, saying a story that short should never be allowed to submit. I wanted to scream, ""It's about quality, not quantity!"" I didn't, wanting to be the bigger person and rise above it. But oh, did it rankle. +On another occasion, I was rereading one of my favorite stories on Lit., and I found myself browsing through some of the comments at the end. One stated that they had no idea why they'd read it, that it was a complete waste of their time. I found myself upset on the author's behalf. If they hadn't wanted to read it, then why did they? Why did they feel the need to post such a comment? Sometimes it seems as if they're intent only on inflicting as much emotional damage as possible, minimizing the glow of all the previous comments. +A lot of times an author will ask for constructive criticism, suggestions that will make their future projects better. A lot of times, the ""constructive"" gets taken out of it, and some people seem like they glory in tearing down your work. There's a lot of nitpicking, a lot of painful barbs that force you to retreat and lick your wounds. +Sure, you could strike back, plan a counterattack. But when you learn to let those few nasty comments roll off your back, it makes it that much sweeter when your followers rally in support of you. + ******* +So, my advice overall? Develop a thick skin. Condition yourself to view the negativity as motivation rather than a detriment. There is always going to be someone who reads your story and decides for whatever reason they don't like it. But do not, under any circumstances, allow a bad score or a scathing comment stop you from honing your craft. Keep at it, keep improving. +Most of all, believe in yourself, in your writing. +It's not always an easy feat to accomplish. You can't simply tell yourself to do or believe something and expect it to sink in and take root. It takes lots of time and tons of patience. The moral of this is to never back down, never give up.

You click the next button, feeling that wonderful euphoria and then Mr. You Suck spill his acid tongue all over your parade. +He can't even do it in a redeeming fashion, he just starts throwing around words like, ""you're terrible"" and ""you're the worst writer here"" and ""you are so stupid!"" and ""you call that a story?

Has he heard of capitalization? Punctuation? You just got hate mail from someone who probably couldn't pass high school and you're getting worked up about it.

When you figure out how, let me know. All right, in reality, I do one of two things, I either bitch profusely to some of my online author friends via IM. Nothing like a empathetic ear to make you feel better. Or, I write a nice, long, scathing reply to Mr. You Suck! using all of the icky words and phrases I can think of. It's inspired some of my best writing, though it's not exactly fit for human consumption. The act of writing to him is cathartic that way. +Mr. You Suck! has an agenda. His mission in life is to cause you as much nasty emotion has he can with the limited intellectual resources he has on hand. The simplest way to defeat his agenda is to shrug it off. It's not an easy task, we simply aren't designed to shrug off personal attacks, we were designed to either fight them or run from them, or so my biology teacher tells me. +Anger and frustration are probably nice to him, but hurting you is his primary goal. He is lashing out at you because he's impotent, jealous, or angry. He can't improve himself to equal you, so he must bring you down to his level and the only way to do that is to give you a string of bad votes and to write hate mail. +There is a nasty voice in all of us. It tells us the biggest pack of lies on a regular basis and usually we believe it. I think it's favorite refrain is, ""you're not good enough."" Mr. You Suck!'s success depends on that voice and that refrain. The hurt comes from the belief that you really aren't good enough and here is someone who is proving it. What is it about us that makes us want to believe the worst about ourselves? We read the best and decide that we're not that good so we must suck. The bald-faced truth is– can you handle it? -- you are a damned good writer. Repeat after me. Write it in permanent marker on your monitor. Tattoo it on your eyelids. ""I am a damned good writer."" +Despite his mean-spirited aggravation, he's useful, too. Yes, I just said that. I did, quit arguing with me. Mr. You Suck! can be useful. He really can be. He fills up the trash can nicely, doesn't he? He also manages to pop an over-inflated ego. Sometimes we get so full of ourselves and how well received we are by our readers, that we forget that there are readers out there who read the first paragraph and then back click. There are literally thousands of them who will do that on any given day. They don't email you and tell you, ""Sorry, man, I read the first sentence or two, but it just didn't interest me. Maybe it's cause they all seem to start out ‘She was a 5'4"" 36-24-36 blonde' and I just read that one."" +For all the people we're doing it right for, there are probably at least twice as many as we're doing it wrong for. Mr. You Suck! is a rather nasty wake up call to that fact, but there it is. Yes, believe it or not, there are actually people who don't like the way we write, what we write about, or how we tell a story. Maybe– I'll deny I ever admitted to this– there is room for improvement. At least just a little. +He's also a great catalyst. Prove him wrong. Rather than burn energy being angry at him, burn your energy in your writing. Give your characters the full depth, range, gamut, insert adjective of choice here of emotions that you just went through.

I want to be with you. Why do you not pay attention to me? Well, you did, back when the church was smaller. You would look at me, and say hello, when with your wife by your side. And I shyly smiled, and said hello too perhaps. But I don't remember that. I feel so sad. Maybe it is this sad song by Leona Lewis on the top 20 hits on the itunes radio. I feel like I let you down. I feel I did not become everything you wished for me when you saw me as a young adult in middleschool going to a private highschool. I was bright eyed back then, always looking to the future with great hope and expectation. And now that future is in the present, but not as glamorous as I hoped. Instead, I feel it is as good as I could expect, in fact better. I am not living the high life, of a lot of wealth and respect in business and owning a corporation like I wanted to. I am no vixen or dominatrix like I wanted to be as the boss I expected I'd become by now as some kind of prodigy. +Instead, you look at me with pity, because you learned that I was psychotic. I thought it meant I was a prophet of some sort. Maybe I should learn the arts of sorcery and magic so that I am a psychotic to be feared, rather than a mere person to be sad for. Maybe psychosis is really the ability to understand the nature of the world that normal common sense is not able to reach. Am I to learn esoteric knowledge? Then, you may not pity me anymore. And then maybe you will want me. I imagine I'd ruin your marriage. You said you'd rather die first than to ruin your church. I don't want you to die, but I am an atheist. And I believe when I die I am not going to heaven, but will become dirt and explode in a black hole someday when Earth is burnt to a crisp by the ever larger sun, and gets sucked into it. And, I don't want my life, or yours because you are not as young as we once were...I don't want our lives to end without getting to know each other intimately. I want to be your friend, but I am afraid that if I got involved in your ministries that it is not going to help me get closer to you, and it will be all for nothing...yes, for nothing because I do not want to get to know other people. I rather dream about you and me, and pay attention to other people that I also want to know instead through online stalking and keeping track of the books they publish and the sermons you give online. Meanwhile, I will stay at home, and wish that someday something will bring us together. Maybe I am going to be an intellectual in my own right, who talks about eroticism in my books with Christian leaders, and you will be one of them in my head, who I play with on paper, and turn into some kind of book. It will be a bestselling Harlequin, unless it is too racy for even them. +Anyway, I don't know what would happen if I got to know you personally. Much the time I look up to you, in fact all the time...but sometimes you say things that catch me off guard that I can't believe you are that way, or thought that. Like, that you wanted to die. It is too sad! Don't die. Don't want to die. What would make you think that way? Is it that my life has become nothing and I have gone to your church from the beginning and so you feel all your work was in vain? Is it because you can't get people to get off of their butts and to do soemthing with their lives, like me? Would it help you if I became something with my life? Would it help if I became somebody so that then you'd have an appropriate excuse to get to know me? What if my role was as an atheist who wrote to destroy your cherished Christianity? What if you harvested within your church a traitor all these years? And yet to me it is giving Christians hope, that if you have reached the pinnacle of it and want yet more, there is something beyond it you can turn to. There are people who have been at the top of the religion and want to destroy themselves, perhaps to see what more there is when one grows numb from a perfect mature christian life. +I want to put my hand upon your face, and to cry with you, when you grow weary. And yet, what is there to cry about really? Nothing. Life is good. Life is much better than many others. And yet there is that, ethereal outsider feeling I get, when I want to know what more is out there, because I feel I can't FEEL. My life is good, and I am safe with my conservative christian parents for now. And yet I am 27, and they are young parents who are barely in their fifties. But when they die, you will probably be dead too. I don't want you to ever die. I am feeling like I am going to cry and die too if you were to die before me. I want to meet you, but I fear ruining the dream of you and me meeting in more favorable circumstances. Even if I were successful, I feel it would not warrant me being able to talk to you. I'd want to have a personal role in your life. Success would be too pompous and too much a part of the happy life. You on the other hand don't seem happy and would not like that I'd think. Sure you want happiness for me, but I don't think you are happy yourself. I think you need a little spice in your life. I think you need a sensual experience and some worldliness in your life. I think you outgrew Christianity. I think you should become part of my christian atheist group. +In it, I am dangerous to the world because I do not fear being scandalous or risque because I have lived the perfect life before and virtue has it's role but is not everything. I lived in psychotic mental hospitals and houses, and I have ruined my reputation enough by confusing people as to who I am. And you have seen the effects of this lifestyle when I went up on stage one day at your church. But it was all about freedom to me, and getting rid of fears of hell and death, and now of virtue's stagnancy for my life. Having everything I wanted was never enough for me as a young adult, and still was not as I got a little older. Now, I find my joy comes in the form of the worldliness you taught me not to be a part of. I love porn, and laugh at it. I like Harlequin and erotic fiction. I like shows like Archer, and Southpark, and Family Guy. I like to spend my days playing computer games at most when not writing self indulgent pieces in my journal or on online sites, sharing it with others who can become contaminated as well with me. I love books like Flowers of Evil by Charles Baudelaire, an Au Rebours or Against The Grain which tells of the hermit who hates people as barbarians of society. I like The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, and Aloysius Bertrand's fantasies de la nuit or soemthing, being Baudelaire's favorite writer. I like The Catcher in the Rye and Vogue magazine. I love the sudden decline and the decadence, opulence, and magnificence! I like trash wrappers as if they were art that I then tape to my wall next to the Vogue glamour magazine ads I taped up to my wall already. I have my Coach Poppy perfume still that I sprayed on all my books that I am going to send in the mail. The 11 cats in our house are wrecking the place. But I like it.

The blowjob is a sexy thing, a very pleasurable thing for both parties. Particularly the male party. Putting your mouth around another person’s body, taking them inside you, stroking them with your tongue…it’s a power trip, pure and simple. Everyone has their own technique, their own style, and this guide is here to help you get a different type of thing going on. The Deep Throat. +In my experience, men have enjoyed going deep. It’s a different feel for them, different than anything they’ve experienced so far. It’s not the same as oral sex held solely in the mouth, and it’s not the same as vaginal or anal sex, where they are buried deep inside you. This is a totally different type of penetration, and it is very hard for some women to accomplish. There is the gag reflex to get around, the feel of something lodged in your throat, the taste, the anxiety of choking or biting, the pain of the jaw being held so widely open. There are a few ways to ease the discomforts, and to enable yourself to practice until you are a champ. Deep throating is not for everyone, but hopefully with this guide you’ll feel confident enough to at least try. +Men, if you want your women to suck on you, there is one courtesy that you need to grant them. Wash yourself off. It is not that your women don’t love the smell of you, the taste of you, the feel of you in their mouths…it is just easier to let it get all the way in if you wash it off first. Be so clean that you’d be willing to suck yourself. Sometimes cocks can be smelly, or taste a little foul, no fault of the man possessing it. Wash it off without question, or women, ask him to. It makes what’s to come easier. Washing it off in the shower is quick and easy, but even quicker is the wash in the sink. My boyfriend has no problem standing at the sink, bending over slightly, and washing his cock off with soap. There should be no problems here. The shower can be a fun little foreplay, the two of you in there together. Oral sex fun can be had in the shower as well, but for my guide it is necessary to be out of it. +When starting, it is a plus if the guy isn’t erect yet. Sometimes washing the cock helps with this, other times if he has just had an orgasm. It makes it easier to take the cock inside, and to accept it before it has reached its full size. Women also might find that if they are turned on, or more relaxed, it will be easier to open themselves to their man. A little bit of alcohol can go a long way, or else a bit of teasing. +The best position I’ve found for going deep is an odd one. The giver lies on his or her back, her head positioned off the bed or table, hanging free. The receiver stands above her and offers his cock to her mouth. It is the givers freedom to take it in; there should be no pushing or shoving or thrusting or grabbing of hair etc. It is much easier to accept a cock deep when the giver is controlling the speed. Positioned in this way it seems easier to let the thick cock slip down your throat. Relax and let it sit there for a while. +Another position is the 69, or any position that gets the girl on top. That way the giver has total control of how deep it is going to get, and if a gag is felt coming on, she can pull of in an instant. The downside to this is that more fearful or reluctant givers are going to have a harder time getting it all the way down. +Get used to the feel of it inside. Some women try to swallow while it is inside, thus opening their throat easier to penetration. Others, like myself, find it easier not to gag not by swallowing, but just by concentration. There are women who cannot get the cock deep down, and don’t feel bad if your first few times you are unable to take it very deep. Get it as far as you can, and then stop. Don’t push it. There will be plenty of time for practice. +The climax is something anticipated by both parties. The receiver is going to want to cum, and the giver may or may not be comfortable with the fact. Sometimes fear of the oncoming orgasm can inhibit the performance, so I suggest a discussion before the session to decide on how the climax is going to be handled. Is it going to come in the mouth, in the throat, outside? Decide, and follow through. If your girl doesn’t want your jizz in her then do not spurt it there. If you do, you’ll probably never get to fuck her throat again. +Practice makes perfect, and the more times you try this new oral sex technique, the better you will get at it. Good luck, have fun, and enjoy yourself. +\-- +Special thanks to everyone who helped me write these tips, and extra special thanks to my special someone who helped me master them. -- Chicklet" +150,Deep Throat,Beecee,How To,2000-10-11,2000-10-11,2022-01-04 08:27:37,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/deep-throat,How to go down deep on your man (pt. 4 of a series).,"['Amount Cum', 'Cock', 'Cock Past', 'Control Cock', 'Deep Throat', 'Mouth Pull', 'Mouth Throat', 'Past Tonsils', 'Pull Slightly', 'Throat']",4.28,"By understanding your anatomy you will begin to understand the requirements that will allow you to take the full length of your mans hard cock into your mouth and all the way down your throat without choking you. The biggest obstacle is the fact that there is a bend of almost ninety degrees behind your tongue leading down into your throat. So the first thing you need to do is get his cock past that angle without you gasping for breath and ruining the moment. +In order to practice this, get in a position where you can tilt your head in such a way that your mouth and throat lie almost in a straight line. The best way to accomplish this position is to lie on your back on the bed with your head positioned just over the edge and tipped sharply back. This position will put your mouth and throat nearly in a line and will allow him to approach on his knees giving you full control over how much of his cock you can take. You can then gently guide him in and out of your mouth at your own pace by grasping his buttocks and pulling / pushing him. Keep a firm grip on his cock with your lips and keep your tongue as straight as possible. +It is possible that not everyone will learn the ""Deep Throat"" technique until several sessions have been completed but this should not stop you from practicing. You must learn to allow your throat to relax completely and breathe through your nose instead of your mouth. +Pull his cock as deep into your throat as you comfortably can. To do this long enough for him to completely orgasm and cum down your throat is very difficult and may require practice beyond this one day alone. It may be that you will be able to take his cock completely down your throat, but you will not be able to maintain a good grip with your mouth. If this is the situation, then pull, push and suck as deeply as you can until he is just about to erupt. As his cum starts to pump in to your mouth, pull him past your tonsils and hold him still for as long as you can. Next time you will know precisely what to expect and how to react. It is important for the first few times at least that you let him know that you must be in complete control of his cock in this situation because only you know how much you can comfortably take. +After several sessions on your deep throat skills you will learn to relax and will feel more comfortable each time. You will know precisely when he is about to cum and how much of his cock you can take. +If you are feeling comfortable at this point, let him fuck your mouth at his own pace. It is possible to take a full 10 inch cock all the way past your tonsils and deep into your throat. You can feel his foreskin peel back as it eases past the back of your throat just as it does when he first enters your cunt. As he fucks your throat, he will not be able to or want to hold back for very long. The pure sensation of his foreskin pulling back and forth deep inside your throat will bring forth an enormous amount of cum. +Another technique, which is not really deep throating but will still give him the same sensation is to clench your hand around his cock as near to the base as possible and as you go down on him with your mouth, pull slightly downwards and on the way up, pull slightly upwards pulling his foreskin back and forth over the corona. Keep your clenched hand close to your mouth and this will feel to him like his whole cock is engorged and again will produce copious amounts of cum. +As mentioned before, the amount of cum a man produces is a direct result of how much pleasure you have given him. Feel free to follow all or some of my exercises and maybe make your own alterations/improvements along the way." +151,Deepthroating 101,Brittni4u,How To,2016-09-17,2016-09-17,2022-01-04 08:27:39,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/deepthroating-101,A girl shares tips and advice on the art of deepthroating.,"['Blowjob', 'Cum Swallow', 'Deepthroating', 'Fellatio', 'Oral', 'Self Help', 'Sucking', 'Swallowing']",4.68,"Here on Literotica and on the internet in general, there are several stories and guides posted on the subject of giving blowjobs. Many of them are great and give various techniques and opinions on how to enhance oral sex on a guy. Once again, I'm not claiming to be an expert, especially at the young age of 22, but I do have skill, experience and above all, enthusiasm. In this post, I'm focusing on the deepthroating aspect because I feel over time I have gotten pretty good at it and want to pass my knowledge along so that I may help others. +First, what is the definition of deepthroating? If a girl goes all the way down on a cock, gags, chokes, then immediately rises back up, is that defined as a deepthroat? Should there be a time limit on how long you have to keep it in your throat before it actually qualifies as deepthroating? Should you be able to, not only swallow the dick, but bob all the way up and all the way down on it while performing, in order to count it as a true deepthroat? I believe there are three levels of deepthroating, so the answer to all those questions are yes. A stage one deepthroat is the first type I mentioned which most girls can do. A stage two deepthroat is more difficult and fewer can keep the cock in their throat for an extended period of time and finally, a stage three deepthroat is the most difficult to perform and a low percentage of people can continually suck a cock while deepthroating it continuously every time they go down. If you are one of the lucky few that can give your guy a stage three deepthroat, he will be a very happy person. Deepthroating not only allows him to feel his entire cock into a warm, moist orifice, it also excites his mind seeing every inch disappear in your mouth. +My last serious boyfriend had a long cock. It wasn't freakish big, but was just over 8 inches. He couldn't believe how easily I could deepthroat it while I blew him. He became obsessed about it and together we would look up deepthroating porn on the internet. There are some amazing deepthroating videos out there but no one porn star that I had ever seen was better than a girl named Heather Brooke. Have any of you seen her work? OMG, she is the deepthroat queen, with no peers. If you haven't seen her, I strongly advise looking her up on the internet. +The two factors that prevent someone from deepthroating are either physical or psychological. The physiological makeup of people is what determines the largest portion of their deepthroating skill. The physical barriers include the gag reflex in which we all hear the most about, throat length, penis thickness which is much more of a hindrance in deepthroating over penis length, among others. Many times, our skill level is predetermined but I do believe we can improve it. I cannot walk up to Ariana Grande and ask her to teach me to sing as good as she can no more that I can ask Heather Brooke, teach me to deepthroat like you. If you don't have the natural ability, you cannot be elite but you can get better and better with practice and it would be a shame to never realize your potential. +Even if you are great at deepthroating cock, it is a physiological certainty that those barriers, I mentioned, will still get in the way sometime. Even the elite will gag, cough, heave and eyes will water at some point during deepthroating. As you perfect your skill, those things will happen less often but they still will happen nonetheless. That is why you would not deepthroat a guy through an entire blowjob. It's physically impossible. I treat deepthroating like it's glitter on a poster. You add a little here and there but it makes the best statement at the end. +I think the psychological hurdle accounts for only a small portion but I wouldn't underestimate the effect it possesses. Girls, we all know when we have crossed over into extreme horniness or what I call ""lust mode."" That may happen with alcohol, great foreplay, loving our partner, great lead up sex, or just a really hot guy who knows what he's doing. When you are in that state, that is the best time to attempt deepthroating. Lust mode may shed that ""claustrophobic feeling"" of having an object lodged in your throat if that is your psychological barrier. When you are uninhibited, you become more daring, experimental, and enthusiastic. +A good blowjob starts and ends with enthusiasm. You have to like sucking dick and you have to want to suck dick. I have questioned my girlfriends at length and some like doing it and some don't. The ones who don't, still will do it on occasion just to please the guy but he will sense this in your demeanor which will diminish his pleasure. I also hear that, on average, when a woman gets married or older in general, she performs fellatio a lot less but I don't know many older women that I feel comfortable asking, so I cannot give a valid opinion. I love sucking cock and hope that enthusiasm I have for it never diminishes. If you sincerely want to please his cock, savor the taste, do all the little sexy non-verbal gestures, and truly swallow every inch of it, he will absolutely love it. Sometimes, I get so aroused and into it, I feel like I can't swallow enough of it, even if it is completely buried down my throat! I want even more! We can sense when a guy's attitude is lackadaisical in eating our pussies and the guy knows when we are sucking his cock just because it's ""his birthday."" +Before you try to get your man's cock down your throat, be sure it's lubricated. Of course with all the sucking, there will be excessive saliva built up in your mouth but much of it will either stay in your mouth or ooze out as drool. There will be no doubt his cock will be lubricated but many forget to swallow to lubricate the throat. It is also good practice to have a drink handy when giving a blowjob if it is possible. The wetter your throat, the better his cock will slide down. Your throat is no different than any other orifice in your body. +You cannot read anything on deepthroating without hearing about the gag reflex. It is very real and very different for everyone. My sister gags at everything and cannot stick anything in her throat. My friend Kelly can slide a 10 inch dildo down her throat with no trouble. Those two girls have very different pharyngeal reflexes. I think my throat is much closer to Kelly's. Most of us girls have been so drunk or feeling so bad, we have had our fingers in our throat trying to throw up just to feel better. That is triggering our gag reflex. +When we have a dick lodged in our throat, we have to think the opposite. We are suppressing our body's natural instinct to reject the object. How can we do that? I think there are a couple of techniques that may help. The first one is practice. We cannot completely change our gag reflex but we can train it. When I was a teenager and learning the art of giving blowjobs, I got tired of gagging, so one day when I was at a friend's house, she was showing me her mom's dildo collection. She let me take one of them that looked old and not in good shape. I peeled the outer rubber or ""skin"" off, exposing only the core which was just a long, thin piece of rubber. I sterilized it with rubbing alcohol and used it as my practice tool. It was still very long and perfect for sucking. +I would push it to the back of my throat, heave and pull it out. I would try different positions and a variety of techniques before I would go to bed. Some of those included, shove it in very fast, very slowly, drive it back and forth very quickly, try to swallow it, and twist it around. I did get to where I found my own personal preferences that worked best for me. The guy I was dating at the time could tell a big difference in a relatively short amount of time as could I. In a few weeks, I went from gagging and choking to deepthroating his dick like a pro. The best advice I can give is to not think specific techniques work the same for everyone. Most information that I have read about deepthroating directs people to relax and straighten their throat because that provides a better ""sword swallowing"" angle and suppresses the gag reflex. Yes, that can work for some people but not for me, it is the exact opposite. I deepthroat better with my chin down and tightening my throat muscles. +To elaborate, I start out by locking or pressing my tongue down at the bottom of my jaw. I then open my throat while keeping the muscles contracted. Once the head of his cock touches the back of my throat, I push it down rather quickly without changing my throat position in any way. Quicker works for me but sometimes slower is better and you will have to see what works best for you. When his dick reaches its destination and completely submerged down your esophagus, it is important to not pull it completely out when you start sucking. Give yourself some time to get used to it. Shallowly, bob up and down while barely moving the dick in your throat and keeping your tongue perfectly still. Moving your tongue transfers the feeling in your gag reflex which could cause you to gag. +When you get more comfortable, you can ""slide"" the dick further distances until you are deepthroat sucking. It's important to breathe when it slides out. Try not to change the throat angle or the pace of the sliding cock until you have mastered your gag reflex. Even if you go to great efforts to keep everything consistent, there will be times in the heat of passion you will choke or gag. There is nothing wrong with pulling it out, regrouping and starting over. That is why it's physically impossible to deepthroat someone throughout an entire blowjob. +Of course there are many positions to give a guy a blowjob and to deepthroat in particular. Whether you are experienced and comfortable or just starting out, I feel the best position for deepthroating is with both of you right side up. The first advantage is you keep your orientation because while on your knees or sitting down, being right side up tells your brain that everything is ""normal"" which allows you to focus on the task easier without gagging. Another advantage to this position, is it's easier to control the depth and thrusting speed of the cock. Your mouth or his cock are not fighting or supporting gravity. If you feel yourself start to gag, a quick pull off is easy, plus, you can use your hands to press on his abdomen when direction is needed. In addition, this position allows you better access to his balls and ass. By fondling, rubbing, cupping, jostling, or just playing with his balls, you can add that extra sensation to make him cum quicker. If he likes ass play, he can spread his legs and allow you to slide a finger in his butthole to enjoy a prostate massage while you deepthroat him. That can also trigger him to cum quicker. +Another recommended position is, what I call, aligning to your lover's penis. If his dick curves upward, attack it from the top like you would do while on top during a 69 position. If it leans to the left, then get on his left side and swallow it that way. Properly aligning your throat to his natural curve can help reduce friction in your throat which in turn could help reduce gagging. It is ironic, if you have ever watched a nature show and see a snake swallow its prey, it aligns its jaws to help pull the prey down its throat and swallow it whole. Now we are the predator and our prey is the snake but we are trying to accomplish the same result. +I don't recommend allowing your man to be on top if you are inexperienced at deepthroating. Another words, it is very difficult to allow him to ""fuck your throat"" without complications. He may get caught up in wanting to go faster or deeper than your comfort level allows. However, if you do get to the point where you can handle him doing that, it can be very exciting and erotic. Make sure he is aware of your ""rules."" I will also tell you that if you upside down or lying with your head hanging over the bed while deepthroating, it can be a struggle to breath with his balls covering your nostrils. That is why I always keep a hand free to tap or ""rearrange"" him if needed. +Once you have improved your deepthroating ability, then it is time to add some skills for his pleasure. One thing I like to do is lick his balls while his cock is totally submerged in my esophagus. I like to give a little smile, maybe even a wink, and rub my tongue back and forth on his nuts. Be careful not to stick your tongue out too far because that releases the tension of gag reflex and can cause you to gag. You will have to find your own tongue technique that works best for you. +Another skill I like to performance during a good deepthroat blowjob is clenching my mouth very tightly. Once I have him completely buried, I clamp and keep removing the air trapped between my cheeks and his cock. This provides a different type of a snugness sensation, almost like a vacuum effect. When you start to bob in this position, it will feel like he is fucking a virgin. It will be no time and he will be ready to cum. +If you are willing to finish a guy while deepthroating, then you have decide how you will receive his cum. It can be a little trickier than it would be with just a standard blowjob. When a guy cums in your mouth during a blowjob, you can prepare by blocking off your throat with your tongue and let him empty without choking you. The second technique is when you suck it out like your drinking through a straw. Either way, it feels natural. Cumming in your throat is something completely different. It is more difficult but if you can master the technique, it also supplies a couple of advantages. +The first advantage to deepthroating an ejaculating cock is if you don't like the taste of cum. The cum shoots directly into your throat, bypassing the gag reflex and taste buds. So if you are one who hates the taste or even the slimy, thick consistency of semen, this is perfect and you are basically not swallowing until the end. Another advantage is that you have the entire cock trapped. Every inch is completely lodged and secured in your throat, therefore he cannot jam it down your throat any further which keeps you in control and gives you a better ability to take it without him doing something unexpected. +There are also disadvantages to deepthroating an ejaculating cock. The first would be the movement factor. This is the total opposite of what I just explained in the last paragraph. Yes you would have better control when you have it completely swallowed, but as he is enjoying his orgasm, he may twitch, shake, or even buck and this could cause the slightest change in your throat, triggering your gag reflex. I learned this the hard way with one of my boyfriends. He was a ""hard cummer"" which means he would completely shake and buck when he came. I would have to literally hold tight to his ass cheeks and keep him pressed firmly against my face when he shot because one time he bucked, causing me to gag, then shot a huge, thick wad that hit my air pipe instead of in my throat, causing me to cough up his load while he had to jack the rest of it on the floor. My eyes watered and there was a mess everywhere so you have to be careful. It was the ultimate deepthroat gone wrong. +I will tell you that once you have deepthroated a cock, your throat will be sore. With all the trauma, it feels like you are catching a cold, so don't be alarmed. I hope my tips and ideas will help you deepthroat you man like a porn star. Just remember to find what works best for you because no one method is for everyone. That is the key.

There are some challenges that are fairly obvious, like being able to successfully deal with watching your partner having sex with someone else. While other challenges are less obvious, such as resolving the social message that a relationship needs to be monogamous. Resolving the issue of monogamy particularly defining cheating can pose a hurdle especially because cheating is a term we understand but it is a word that has a specific meaning for each person. Such variation can create different expectations when considering a threesome and it if not resolved it may mean each person is held to a different standard. Overcoming the different definitions of cheating becomes quite important in the context of having a threesome since the success of the threesome and ultimately a couple's relationship may hinge on the definition. Therefore, successfully defining cheating, this author feels, is a cornerstone of having a successful threesome. It will define what activity is acceptable in a threesome and how much tolerance a couple will have between defining what is an acceptable misunderstanding and actual cheating. In addition, this author believes, how a couple defines cheating will ultimately determine if they will have a threesome or not. For a couple, a lot can hinge on how they define cheating. This section will provide an opinion regarding the a definition of cheating by exploring some of the sources of the idea of cheating, then by breaking the topic down into its elements and finally this chapter will propose an alternative definition that may work, for some couples. +The Beginning -- Early Experiences shaping the definition of cheating. +It is important before discussing how to define cheating that the reader begins to grasp how complex the definition can be due to varying individual experiences and how difficult it can be in reaching a common definition for cheating. Probably an unifying element is for cheating to occur a breaking of a trust must occur but what remains unclear is what event breaks the trust. In order to understand the reason for the variation regarding the event that breaks a trust in a relationship, it is important to look at person's childhood. Childhood is a time in our lives where our job is learning. Learning occurs in many different formats. It occurs formally in the classroom and it occurs informally through our interactions with our environment, such as playing with friends. During our childhood we play a lot of games that have rules, as we get older the rules become more complex and we become upset when a participant in the game intentionally breaks a rule in order to have a greater chance of winning. At that point we become upset and claim that the person ""cheated."" Then as we get older formal game playing begins to end and we play a more abstract game called dating. +Once we begin to ""date"" we begin to apply the rules we observed about relationships from adults around us along with our observations we begin applying our own belief system to the rules we feel that should define dating. Early during our dating experience, when a relationship tends to be short-term and we begin to learn how to care for another, we begin to confront the issue of what is cheating. The person we are dating may have gone to the local soda fountain for a phosphate or talked to a person of the opposite sex. Cheating, during this time, is clear-cut whereby any physical contact with someone else, regardless of how trivial it is, or acts inconsistent with our belief of what a couple does, is considered cheating. This leads to a ""check-list"" being developed because we have not learned how to communicate effectively in a relationship and the ""check-list"" serves as a way to protect ourselves being hurt while dating. Such a ""check-list"" defines physical activities we define as cheating and other activities if occur will ensure the relationship comes to an end. However as we get older and become better at communicating, in a relationship, then the cheating ""check-list"" we developed as young adults becomes challenged. Once it is challenged it requires some introspection in order to determine where our feelings on the subject lie and in most cases the ""check-list"" becomes no longer is fit for purpose. Should it be no longer fit for purpose, this means some type of change has been made to the person's world view and it means the person's definition of cheating is evolving. Moreover this means, the definition we hold for cheating is a continuously evolving definition based on experiences and challenges to the definition. +Trust, the foundation for defining cheating +Trust has many meanings and it means different things to different people. In the context of relationship that is considering a threesome in order for a relationship to last and to function there must be trust. Essentially trust can be defined as the reliance on what someone is saying or doing is true. However when you begin talking about a committed type of relationship, such as a couple considering a threesome, then trust takes on a broader meaning. Trust in this case also means that the success or failure of the relationship is linked with maintaining a trust. This usually means there is an interrelationship between trust and boundaries. Boundaries define the limits to which the threesome will operate and it builds a level of trust, this author feels, by building confidence that the threesome will not go outside of those boundaries. By having boundaries it allows the relationship to function by instilling a level of trust, otherwise this author feels having a threesome will become much more difficult. +This implies that any communication must be based on honesty and there cannot be any deceit. Such a statement also implies there is no universal list to determine truth. Instead truth comes about from the examination of the situation and understanding the person. Furthermore it can be said that trust is a core element that forms a relationship and without being able to trust the other in a relationship the relationship cannot function. Therefore this author believes that, trust develops over time resulting from effective communication, learning about the individual, and is the result of working together as a team. The more a couple invests in their relationship by developing trust and defining their limits of their relationship the more likely it is able to weather adversity. The trust is broken it may be repaired, though not guaranteed, by re-establishing trust. +How does trust and having a threesome relate? Having a threesome requires that trust exists and having a threesome relies on the fact that no one will break an agreed boundary. Also it requires for a threesome to be successful that each person trust the other two. Having a threesome is not like going to a burger place and trusting that the cashier will get your order correct. In a threesome situation you essentially trust the other two with your life and that they will respect you enough to adhere to the boundaries. +Finally, the question becomes how does trust and threesome relate to cheating? Essentially cheating results from a trust being broken. In a threesome situation boundaries are principally the union of each person's sexual comfort limit and by exceeding that limit trust is broken. Once trust is broken cheating becomes a possibility. This then raises another question is trust and cheating interlinked? +Difference between Trust and Cheating +Up to this point this author has not defined the difference between trust and cheating. However in this section the difference will become clearer. It can be said there is link between trust and cheating. This means cheating cannot occur if there is no emotional investment in trust being maintained and without the emotional investment it can be said no cheating can occur. Example of where this is a friend with benefit relationship. In this type of relationship, it does not matter if the person is being honest about having sex with someone because the type of relationship is based on physical attraction without needing to maintain a trust for the relationship to exist. This does not mean that a friend with benefit relationship does not require trust; instead it means the level of trust needed is less because other elements such as attraction have a role in maintaining the relationship. +The difference between a friend with benefits and a committed relationship is the emphasis placed on cheating. Cheating implies that violating a trust carries a heavier penalty than a feeling being hurt temporarily or that the relationship can continue without addressing it. In a primary relationship if cheating occurs it has a devastating impact on the relationship. A primary relationship can be thought of as a couple that has established a relationship but is looking to bring another into it on a temporary basis for the purpose of pleasure. Therefore trust can be said is something that is needed when forming a relationship, regardless of how temporary it maybe. However for cheating to occur it requires an emotional investment in a primary relationship. +Knowledge of Partner, what does that mean? +Before defining cheating it is important to define one more concept, knowledge of partner is a term that implies having a relationship with a person and from that experience a knowledge base is developed. Then from that knowledge base certain expectations, expected behaviors in a given situation, and if the relationship develops long enough a particular ""couple's language"" develops whereby the couple develops their own words along with a specific communication style. The communication style and language serves as a foundation for understanding. However when in a threesome situation it is best to return to the basics by abandoning any special words and any special communication style in order to ensure that nothing gets missed. Nonetheless the specific communication style and words could help as a way to communicate interest or lack thereof when selecting the third person. +What does this all mean, a proposed definition for cheating? +This author feels that the definition of cheating can be defined by a couple in a long-term relationship when a trust has been either intentionally or recklessly violated. Such a definition excludes simple misunderstanding, excludes emotional cheating (e.g. emotional affairs), and instead requires that violating a trust is something that can be expected from the chosen action taken. Expecting an action to violate a trust means that there is an awareness, at some level, that performing the action will result in a loss of trust and even though the awareness exists the individual nonetheless chose to partake in that behavior. +The above definition can seem confusing and this author will present two scenarios to highlight how to apply the definition. + **Scenario 1:** Couple A (Mr M & his wife Mrs A) agree to invite another male, Mr D for a two male threesome. A boundary for Couple A is that Mrs A can perform oral on Mr. D but Mr. D cannot cum in her mouth. During the threesome Mrs A performs oral on Mr. D that results in him cumming in her mouth. The question becomes did Mrs. A cheat on Mr. M by violating the boundary? + **Discussion:** This is a difficult question to answer as there are allot of ""it depends,"" and a need to evaluate the situation in order to determine if cheating did occur. One area to be considered was Mr. D aware of the boundary and was he asked to let Mrs. A to know when it was close to ""cumming"" so that he could try to pull out? Another question to be answered, did Mr. D cum too fast because of the excitement and stress of the situation? It could be that even if Mrs. A had warning that it could not have been avoided because Mr. D ""cummed"" too quickly. Third question to be answered what was Mrs A intention? A lot of this revolves around what Mr. M knows about his wife and the current state of their relationship. Also, it comes down to what Mrs. A felt about her decision to perform oral on Mr. D to the put of ""cumming"" and if she was willing to take the risk that it might be seen as cheating. Finally, did the couple risk assess this activity, meaning did they realize that this was a possible consequence and they were prepared, as a couple, to accept that Mr. D might not be able to ""pull-out"" in time. My feeling the answer comes down to how important this boundary was to keep, how much discussion occurred, the understanding each person had of the boundary, and given their planned threesome how practical it was to expect Mr. D would not ""cum"" too fast. + **Scenario 2:** Using same couple from above, they agree that any communication with the third person would be transparent, whereby each of them would be present when any communication would occur. Mrs. A waits until Mr. M goes to be and uses IRC to plan a meeting alone with Mr. D. Mrs. A does not tell Mr. M of the meeting and he only discovers it a few days later when he discovers a saved chat between the two of him while he was a sleep. + **Discussion:** Unless there was some agreement between Mr M & Mrs A, such as she should meet him alone or that she should talk with him alone, then it is probable that cheating had a occurred due to the fact, as a couple, they agreed that any communication would occur in the presence of the other. Mrs. A should have known or did know that communicating without her husband present to meet the other alone would be considered cheating since it is in contrast to what has been agreed. For a couple wanting to have a threesome and avoid cheating it means that they need to have definable boundaries that are understood along with being agreeable. In addition it means that for the couple they must rely more on their knowledge of their partner when considering if cheating has occurred in a threesome. If a couple encounters a violation of a boundary during a threesome, their definition is quite rigid and do not examine the violation in the larger context by trying to determine what caused it to happen then it is this author's feeling that couple will face major problems for their relationship . +Finally it goes without saying threesomes are risky, even if every precautions are taken and it is planned meticulously. Defining cheating and if a violation of trust occurs then considering it in the context of why it happened does not ensure protection from anything damaging to the relationship. All it ensures is that added protection to the relationship is given via communication and agreeing on the definition." +153,Defining Roles,psychiclover,How To,2015-02-03,2015-02-04,2022-01-04 08:27:41,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/defining-roles-submissives,1. For those interested in getting into BDSM. 2. Of interest to those who want to get into BDSM.,"['Bdsm', 'Bondage', 'Master', 'Mistress', 'Slaves']",3.96,"Having been a submissive at one point in my life, I can tell you that there is a simplicity in being a sub and surrendering control of one's self to another. For one like me, who was always meant to be a Dom, it was frustrating because I wanted to fight back to take back my control and my power for myself. But to be the Mistress I am today, I understand why I had to be tempered in such a way as to be able to show others that simplicity, and to use it for my own satisfaction as well as theirs. +Who can be a submissive? There are male, female, gay, bi-sexual, and transgender submissives. In fact , the more you get into the world of BSDM you will find that the lines of sexuality get very muddied. Often I stop trying to define what people define themselves as on the street so much as try to focus on what they are in my chambers. These are TWO different things entirely. Similarly, I do not regard financial status, race, or sexual skill level to be factors in becoming a sub. I have seen all of these as well. The only thing that matters when it comes to WHO can be a submissive is age. Anyone under 18 is illegal here in the USA. While anyone over that is technically of consensual sexual, I find that anyone under the age of 21 is still not experienced enough to know what they want. Please check in your jurisdiction and always verify a persons age before engaging in sexual activities. +So to the new reader interested in becoming one exactly what is a submissive or a sub? Merriam Webster Dictionary defines the term best. Submissive]adj.: willing to obey someone else. That is it. Nice and simple, or is it? +This term does not necessarily define ownership of the individual by another party, as if one were a slave. Being a sub is a recognition of the willingness or tendency to yield to the will or authority to one recognized as superior, in specific to a Dominant. (Also known as a Dom or Dominatrix) To some it is voluntary, meaning that they allow themselves to be humiliated and abused for their own personal reasons, kinks, fetishes, or simply because they can. I have seen very handsome and well endowed males submit in very serious ways to males and females alike. And to others it is impressed or forced upon them by other means. Sometimes this ""other means"" can be superior physical prowess, financial debt, dominant demeanor, family upbringing, psychological need, or perceived personal deficiencies. +Whatever your personal reason for wanting or choosing to become a submissive, there are different levels of submission. Just because you have decided to allow someone else to have control over you doesn't mean that you have to have to let go 100%, although there are those that certainly do take it to that extreme. More so than being a slave (which is primarily defined by ownership) submission is about mental control. Along with some of the other activities that occur in the BDSM community there are several things that some submissive choose to allow others to have control over them. +Here are some of the them : +-humiliation (verbal putdowns, emotional stress, embarrassing dress, or sex in a public or private setting) +-loss of choice (what you eat, where you work, who you get to be friends with or talk to, what clothes you wear...) +-loss of freedom of movement (outside of the home, and possibly binding) +-behavior modification (kneeling, bowing, never making eye contact, sleeping at the foot of the bed) +-performance of menial tasks (those things seen as unworthy of the Dom- cleaning etc, opening doors, ordering food at restaurants) +-chastity/ forced orgasm (loss of your orgasm when/ if it happens) +These are only a few of the things that a potential submissive can expect. All of them are meant to reinforce the dynamic of inferiority in the sub, and/ or to increase the pleasure of being one if they are utilized in proper manner by a skillful Dom. It is a surprise to some people to learn that the sub can get pleasure out of these activities, almost as much, if not more than the Dom in some cases. You can ascribe this one to the ""Different strokes for different folks"" axiom. In the end, it is all about choice. Some people choose to be subs full time, some switch from Dom to sub, and some are just into it for the part time kink of it. How far you go, and what you chose to do, are all up to you are your future Dom. +Enjoy. + +" +154,Dialog Punctuation Tips for Authors,elof69,How To,2020-10-14,2020-10-14,2022-01-04 08:27:42,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/dialog-punctuation-tips-for-authors,"Short and sweet, I will explain punctuating dialog, and only.",['Dialog'],4.64,"Short and sweet, I will explain punctuating dialog, and only dialog, in the way I wish my teachers had. +Don't let what all the ""rules"" scare you. Once you have this ""lesson"" down, you will be okay in over 95% of the dialog you write. +If you get confused, look online for answers to your questions. (Be very careful to only use sources that know what they are doing. If you see words like ""I don't think"" or ""In my opinion"" look elsewhere.) When I started writing, the internet was not an option. I looked in books to see how what I wanted to do was done. Publishers and editors had looked over every line before the book went to press. (It would be naive to believe they caught every error, but you could take it to the bank any slips were few and far between.) You can still do that, but _only_ with books on paper and of publications at least 20 years old. _Never_ use anything self-published as your guide. (I guess using those criteria, you shouldn't use this as your guide. But, wait, I'm different. You can trust me.) +Of course, other English-speaking countries have different rules for the punctuation of dialog. (In the United States, the period goes inside the quotation mark. In the UK, it goes outside.) _This is what I know about the rules in the US._ +LET'S GET STARTED +IF YOU GET NOTHING ELSE, please **ALWAYS start a new paragraph when you change the speaker.** Always. There are no exceptions. None. +(Bill could hear the shouts from the crowd. ""That's not fair."" ""How can he get away with that?"" ""Someone has to put a stop to it."" is the _same_ speaker - the narrator. The narrator is telling you what is going on. No character(s) in the manuscript is/are speaking.) +THE SIMPLE SENTENCE. +The _period_ is the big boss. When it says ""stop"" it means "" _stop_ "". Your sentence is _over_. Move on to the next one. I don't know of any exceptions to this rule. It doesn't matter what you have before the _period_ , that little dot tells you, you are finished with that sentence. +1.""I told you to stop."" +2.""I told you to stop,"" Bill said. +3.""I told you to stop,"" Bill said, ""and I mean it."" +Note that in #2, there is a _comma_ after ""stop"", not a period. That is because I am not done with the sentence, there is more to come. I want to add that Bill is speaking. As there is a _comma_ and not a period, ""Bill said"" is _part_ of the sentence. +It would be _wrong_ to write: ""I told you to stop."" Bill said. The period after ""stop"" has made ""Bill said."" into its own, stand by itself, sentence. +""I want you to stop."" +Bill said. +That's not what you are trying to do. You want the reader to know that Bill is the one who told you to stop. +Look at #3. I have added more to the sentence, but again the sentence doesn't end until we get to the period so ""Bill said"" is part of the sentence as well as ""and I mean it. +Correct: Becky smiled. ""Hmmm,"" she said. +Not Correct: Becky smiled. ""hmmm,"" she said. +Not Correct: Becky smiled. ""Hmmm."" She said. +WHEN THE SPEAKER CONTINUES IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH +If the dialog continues _directly_ to the next paragraph _without the speaker stopping_ , do not end the paragraph with a quote. But _do_ start the next paragraph with a quote. Because you have not closed the quote (the end of the dialog quotation mark), the reader knows that the same person is talking in the next paragraph. +e.g. +>>> ""Bill is an idiot. He doesn't give a shit what anyone else wants. It's his way or not at all. (End of paragraph as we are changing subject.) +""And don't get me started on his father. It's not hard to see where Bill gets it from."" +>>> ""Billy, I don't know what I am going to do,"" Bob said. ""It's beyond anything I've ever done. +""And Steven is useless as a resource."" (End of Steven speaking, so end quote.) +Two separate subjects (so a new paragraph) with the same speaker. His dialog ended the first paragraph but is continued at the beginning of the next. There is no change of speaker, so we don't end the first paragraph with a quote. +>>> ""Billy, I don't know what I am going to do,"" Bob said. ""It's beyond anything I've ever done."" +>>> Bob shook the oblong box, then placed it on the table. ""And Steven is useless as a resource."" +Here, dialog ended the first paragraph but didn't immediately continue in the next paragraph, so we insert an end quote. To show that Bob is still speaking, we can use an action tag for Bob, then follow with dialog. Without the action tag (or a dialog tag) either Billy or Bob could be speaking. ""And Steven is useless as a resource."" could have been said by either of them." +155,Dialogue This,Firebrain,How To,2010-09-29,2010-09-29,2022-01-04 08:27:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/dialogue-this,How to make your characters talk.,"['Dialect', 'How To', 'Slang', 'Speech', 'Writing Dialogue']",4.83,"**Dialogue This:** + **Making Your Characters Talk** +Y'know, people often say to me: ""Firebrain, how come you write such good dialogue?"" My stock response (whilst smiling smugly) is that I watched a lot of Buffy. Now that's actually quite relevant - Joss Whedon is the king of quippy dialogue and gorgeously grey characters - but that doesn't help you, on the other side of the screen. _This_ might. +You're going to look at this article and think, _fuck me - this looks complicated!_ It _is_ complicated. The thing is, you're probably doing half of it already - now it's time to consider the rest and watch how it inflates your reams of flat dialogue into something seriously juicy. +We're going to cover: + **First Things First -** basic grammar and punctuation for dialogue. + **The Ellipsis and the Dash -** you think you can use these bitches - apparently, you can't. + **Dialect and Slang -** because the poshest BBC accent is a dialect and even robots say _fuck._ + **Utterances -** learn to balance your _erms_ and _arghs._ + **Formal vs. Natural speech -** because you're writing Joe Average, not Stephen Hawking (and if you _are_ writing Stephen Hawking, I'm backing away right now). + **Dialogue Tags** \- who says what and how do they say it? + **Dialogue During Sex -** should actually be shexy, and not in the Anchorman way. + **First Things First** +If you're a little more experienced, you probably know all of this; it's still worth checking. Here's how we punctuate and shape a line of speech correctly: +i said what the fuck are you talking about alice cried justin +1) First, we're going to put the bit that is speech in speech marks (or quotation marks): +""i said what the fuck are you talking about alice"" cried justin +Speech - that is, what is said aloud - always goes inside these marks. The bit on the end - _cried Justin_ \- is called a **dialogue tag** because it tells us who is talking. +2) Now, we're going to capitalise where appropriate: +""I said what the fuck are you talking about Alice"" cried Justin +We've capitalised _I_ because it's the beginning of a sentence; we capitalised the names because they are proper nouns. Notice, though, that we didn't capitalise the beginning of the dialogue tag - _cried_. This is because it's technically part of the same sentence as the dialogue that precedes it - there's a comma at the end of the phrase inside the speech marks, not a full stop. +3) Now we're going to throw in the rest of the punctuation that's required: +""I said _,_ what the fuck are you talking about, Alice?"" cried Justin. +We've got a comma after _said_ because when reading aloud, we'd naturally pause here. We've also changed subjects from _I_ to _you_. +We've got a comma before _Alice_ because we have another pause and again, we're switching subjects - from _you_ to _Alice_. +We have a question mark -? - after _Alice_ because Justin's asking a question. +We have a full stop after _Justin_ because we're closing the sentence (and we'd naturally pause here, too). +Punctuating your dialogue is really important because we're not just telling the reader what the character is saying; we're telling them **how it sounds**. That's why we need to think about where we'd pause when saying this aloud. +4) We're going to add some emphasis by using italics: +""I said, what the _fuck_ are you talking about, Alice?"" cried Justin. +When you want to put some serious whack behind a word, you _italicise_. This lets the reader know that the word sounds strong and it is important. You don't need to italicise in every line of dialogue - in fact it's best when used sparingly - but do consider it, especially for emotional scenes. +5) When the next person speaks, it always goes on a new line: +""I said, what the _fuck_ are you talking about, Alice?"" cried Justin. +""The restaurant."" She rolled her eyes. ""I saw you with her!"" +You don't have to double space between lines of dialogue, as above, but I urge you to do it because it makes it much easier to read. + **Thoughts on the Ellipsis and the Dash** +Ahh, the old ellipsis (...); it coveys a trailing off or a dramatic pause. It injects suspense, tension, an elongated last word... +...it's also mistakenly used in place of a dash (-) way too often. +Here is how we correctly use the ellipsis: +""I wanted to tell you. I tried to tell you. What I mean to say is..."" Jon winced at the effort of his words, ""I love you."" +Jon paused: he needed a moment to think. He needed an ellipsis. +Here's how we use a dash correctly: +""I wanted to tell you. I tried - "" +""I don't care what you _tried_ , Jon!"" Lucy sighed. +Lucy interrupted Jon and he got cut off. He needed a dash. + **Thoughts on Dialect and Slang** +1) A character's location (and the time in which your story is set) will affect their **accent** and their **colloquialisms** (the regional slang that they use). +You can refer to **accent** in dialogue. Here is an example of a modern London ""Cockney"" accent written phonetically: +""Yer on. Sunday, ahhtiside the pab - I'm gonna kill yer!"" +That's going to get exhausting to read pretty quickly, no? This is why **I don't recommend writing an accent in completely** _._ What you _can_ do is use it sparingly, and use slang and description to imply it: +""You're on, you fucking weasel. Sunday, outside the pub - I'm gonna kill yer!"" Bill's Cockney accent was grating and coarse. +You only need to describe Bill's accent once in your piece; throw in the odd bit of slang and the reader will remember how he speaks. + **Not all of your characters, if any, which have such stylised dialogue** \- it will depend on your own style of writing. It is a worthwhile skill to have, though. +2) _Y_ our characters are going to use **slang** in some form whether it's a curse, a regional name for a cup of tea or a less than flattering reference to the enemy's mother. Use slang when you write dialogue; it personalises your character and it tells us lots of important things about them. Why spend three lines describing where they are from and how they are feeling when you can convey it in a single phrase? +Slang is varied by setting and regional dialect, as we have already seen. Slang is also varied by the social group that your character belongs to, whether it's working class northerner, New York yuppie, heavy metal stoner or Cuban pirate. +Slang curses might include: +""Fuck!"" +""Drat."" +""Oh Christ."" / ""Oh _man_."" +""Golly, miss Molly!"" +""Sweet mother of Abraham Lincoln!"" +""Buggery fucksticks."" +Remember that curses don't always need exclamation marks; if your character has a dry sense of humour or a quiet disposition then you might want to exclude the mark to convey a flatter tone. These little considerations are what really make a character. +Here's how slang and dialect can transform dialogue and the character speaking: +""I've got an exam on Friday,"" Zack said. ""I'm seriously worried."" +To +""I got this exam on Friday,"" Zack said. ""I'm shitting bricks!"" +Dialogue doesn't just have to convey information - it can imply things about a character's personality too. +Zack is evidently the kind of guy who says things like _shitting bricks_ \- not all your characters will be so vulgar, but that's what makes him a unique and believable individual. It also makes him fun to read. + **Thoughts on Utterances** +So yeah...um...this bit is about, er, utterances. These are the guttural sounds we make when no word is quite appropriate: +""Erm..."" +""Oh."" +""Aaaargh!"" + **When might you use an utterance?** +1) When our character is nervous or confused: +""Oh God. Um. How did you find out?"" +""What's the capital of Russia? I know this. Bear with me. Erm..."" +2) When our character is surprised, pleased, shocked: +""Argh! That fucking hurts!"" +""Ow...do that again."" +3) When the character is being dubious or sarcastic: +""Did you think I'd never find out?"" Sarah seethed. +Kevin bit his lip. +""Erm."" +""Don't you bloody _erm_ me!"" +Use utterances in your dialogue but use them _sparingly_. Let them make an impact; don't let them weigh the sentence down. + **Thoughts on Formal vs. Natural** +Your characters are talking _to_ each other - not just talking _at_ the reader. Acknowledge the other character sometimes in their speech: +""You know what I'm talking about."" +To +""You know what I'm talking about, right?"" or ""Do you know what I'm on about, Sarah?"" +They're also talking rather than writing - they won't observe all the formal rules of English. There are little touches you can add which imply this: +""Do you want to come for breakfast on Friday?"" +To +""Hey, Simon! You coming for breakfast on Friday?"" or ""Simon, mate. How'd you fancy brekkie on Friday?"" +Utterances, slang and setting play a big part in making dialogue sound natural - the last two sections really inform this one (read 'em now if you just skipped through). Listen to yourself talking to your family and friends; you sound like a human being, not an essay! + **Thoughts on Dialogue Tags** +There are four very common mistakes that are made regarding dialogue tags: + _1) ""Said"" is such a boring dialogue tag. I ought to whack out the old thesaurus, and I should weld on a zillion adverbs too!_ +As we say in England: I don't fucking think so. +Dialogue tags are not about winning the Nobel prize for literature. They are fuctional: they are there to tell us who said what and how they said it. I want you to think about this very closely: **how much of that work has my dialogue already done for me?** Has my exclamation mark implied a shout? Has the ranty slang implied my character's distaste? **Your tags and adverbs should not distract from your dialogue.** +Sometimes, _said_ doesn't cut it. Sometimes your character really does need to gasp, rant, cry, sigh, whisper, mutter or grumble. Sometimes they might need to say the line quickly, softly or scathingly. Use tags and adverbs sparingly, though - rare use lends a line far more impact and adverbs often disturb the rhythm of a sentence. +Be wary of tags and adverbs combined - you don't need both 90% of the time. Be especially wary of combinations that mean the same thing: _shouted loudly, whispered quietly._ + _2) Dialogue tags always go at the end of the line of speech._ +If you follow the same pattern every time then your prose gets flat and lifeless. If every line ends in ""she said,"" or ""he sighed,"" then you've got that problem - it's hard to inject any energy when it is read aloud because you're always adding on that low little ""he said/she said/Tom cried."" +Furthermore, not every chunk of dialogue is said in the same fashion: the character might smile half way through for impact, or break to sob. For example: +""I remember Grace, yeah. The girl with all that bouncy blond hair?"" Emilia smiled fondly. ""She was so funny when she had to do that phone interview with Simon Cowell..."" + __ + _3) Every line of dialogue needs a tag, right?_ +No! And thrice no. I don't care if they're debating the Russian economy or masturbating to the dulcet tones of Celine Dion; do not tag every line of speech! Here's an example: +Annie thrust a menu on to Luke's lap. +""What do you want for dinner, hon?"" +""Ooh. Let's have a looksy."" He pushed his glasses back into place with a nail bitten finger. ""Something with hot sauce, I think."" +""Oh yeah. Anything for the sauce,"" she giggled. +""Are you able to say anything without innuendo?"" +We already know that Annie is speaking because we described her action first. For the remainder of the conversation, we also know that the only two people speaking are Annie and Luke. That means that we don't need to be reminded every time that we speak. Did you even notice the lack of tagging there? +4) _It's not enough to use a tag - I need to say what my character is doing, too._ +""Did you see the big game last night?"" Rex called, striding towards my desk. ""It was awesome! +Now look at: +""Did you see the big game last night?"" Rex strode towards my desk. ""It was awesome!"" +Did we need to know that Rex was _calling_ as well as _striding_? No: he was striding towards the desk and was therefore some distance away to begin with. His voice would have been loud enough to carry. +We don't always consciously think about these things when we write but we do often see mistakes like this in a story. When you re-read your work, ask yourself: **do I need the tag** **_and_** **the action?** Would the action act sufficiently as a tag too? + **Thoughts on Dialogue During Sex** +Oh baby. Oh _God_ , baby. Fucking stick that dialogue to me, stick it in my pisshole! +When it's good, erotic dialogue is knicker stickin' sexy. When it's bad, it's...yeah. I cringe so hard that my face aches. +Erotica is written as fantasy; realism isn't always that important if the story is written well because we aren't reading for a real-life scene (e.g. the couple can have sex without a condom and we may not question the worry of her getting pregnant). However - don't confuse realism with plausibility: that is to say, don't confuse writing a fantasy scene with writing something ridiculous. A nine inch cock? Yeah, that'd wash; fourteen inches? I don't think so. +Here are a few guidelines for writing sexy speech: + **1) Less is more.** +Not everyone is particularly vocal during sex and sometimes, a single line is ten times more sexy than fourteen coarse demands. If you _are_ writing about a very vocal character, think on these things: + **What is the cue for this line of dialogue?** Is it a hand stroke, a partner revealing a voluptuous breast, an orgasm? Have the dialogue refer to this: it makes for interesting variety between ""fuck me!"" and ""oh, just fucking fuck me!"" + **Have I already used this phrase?** We often get incoherent and repeat ourselves during sex, but at least stretch your vocabulary a little (and if this is the third sex scene in your story, the same goes for the previous few scenes - don't write the same fuck three times!). + **2) You don't have to cuss.** +""Oh fuck! Oh shit! I want your cock!"" +Cusses have impact and power - when used sparingly - and some characters cuss more than others. +Consider, though, the power of lines without a cuss: +""I want you inside me _right now_."" +""Do you have any idea how big you feel?"" or ""You're a wet little tease."" +"" _Please_!"" +Not every man or woman turns into a foul-mouthed vagrant when they become aroused; ask yourself, is it plausible that the demure schoolgirl starts pouring _fuck_ and _shit_ from every orifice because you've just got her knickers off? Even if she did - which she might, depending on your fantasy - wouldn't she build up to it with some non-cussing lines first? +3) Call a spade a spade. +Pork sword. Man meat. Swamp cunt. Virgin flower. Greased beef express. Yeah, can _you_ say those with a straight face? +No, neither can I. +Don't be afraid to just call a cock, a cock; a pussy, a pussy. Of course you can get more imaginative but remember that you're trying to be sexy, not gross people out. A scene doesn't have to include seven different words for vagina - in fact it doesn't even have to include _one_ , depending on your style; you're writing a story, not a thesaurus. +Unless it is in keeping with a very particular style, avoid the more abstract euphemisms - cock to _cattle prod_ , pussy to _weeping chasm_ \- the reader might pause to decipher and it can detract from the impact of your prose. + **4) Utterance vs. Action** +""Aaaaaaargh!"" +""Oooooh baby! Yes, uuuuuunnngh!"" +Using utterances in sex scenes is a matter of personal taste. Some prefer to use a phonetic spelling, as above, and some prefer to describe the action instead: +Dashiel groaned as he painted Nathan's cheeks with cream. +I prefer the latter; I just find it easier to take seriously. If you're going to use utterances, the same rule applies as for non-erotic dialogue: use them sparingly. Sprinkle them into the description rather than allowing them to dominate the scene. + **5) Where's the personality?** +Your characters might have known each other for ten years; they might have just met. The point is, they have their own way of talking - their dialect, their slang, their cute little nicknames for each other and their weird sense of humour - and it informs their speech during sex as much as it does elsewhere. All of this builds intimacy. +If you want readers to invest in your characters, they need to read the sex scene and think, _wow, that's exactly what Taylor would do. I've been waiting to see that!_ instead of _this could be anybody._ The reader can still imagine themselves in Taylor's place - in fact little details that they identify with make this extra special. +Consider any of these ideas for adding personality to your sex scene: + **Taylor could refer back to an old memory or previous episode of fucking:** +""You know...that's amazing,"" Taylor murmured, ""but it'd be even better if you did that thing..."" +Robin grinned. +""What thing?"" +""Remember the log cabin?"" +""Oh yeah."" He looked at Taylor's round arse cheeks and thought of how they'd marbled to red and pink. ""I remember."" + **Taylor could have a special name just for Robin**. It doesn't have to be a sickly pet name but if she calls everybody _honey_ , it's not intimate. If she reserves _honey_ just for him (or just the men she fucks) then it implies a special level of intimacy. +""That's it, honey...please..."" + **Taylor could use her slang during a sex scene.** This kind of touch adds humour and realism; it's something you would add if that's what you're after. It's also more useful for characters with little background history: +""No!"" she screeched. ""Stop tickling me, you evil hussy!"" +Lucy collapsed into giggles beside her. Her fingers crept up Taylor's thigh and hooked her white thong aside. +""Frigid bitch,"" Lucy breathed. +""Oh yeah. Frigid...that's me... _oh_."" + **Shy, well-spoken Taylor could get so hot, she gets a little** **_out_** **of character**. This works best in longer pieces than stroke stories, but it all depends on the strength and style of your writing - if you can establish Taylor's personality well before the sex, you're good to go: +""Is that good?"" Lucy ran her nails over Taylor's calf. ""Well?"" +""Oh yeah, it's..."" Taylor broke off to pant as Lucy reached her inner thigh, ""it's good."" +""How good?"" +Taylor closed her eyes as Lucy reached her pussy; she needed to hide in the dark, away from the growing shame. +""How good?"" she moaned. ""Oh...oh _fuck_."" +The sex must be frickin' amazing to make this good girl swear, huh? Taylor's little lapse in character lends a whopping impact to that single _fuck._ + **So here we are** ; the final countdown, the closing credits, the end of the road. The post-orgasmic collapse. It's been an emotional journey and I feel like we've really grown together, you know? Sob, sigh...I'm so proud of you! +Now that I've finished patronising you: I hope this has been of use. I'd love to hear thoughts, ideas and even corrections on this little piece. Just don't send me pictures of your mushroom cock, ok? I get like three of those a week and always when I'm eating a sausage." +156,Dialogue: The Eternal Problem,satyricon.21,How To,2006-07-21,2006-07-21,2022-01-04 08:27:44,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/dialogue-the-eternal-problem,Why is dialogue in stories so often real crap?,"['Author Advice', 'Author How-To', 'Dialogue', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Dialogue', 'Writing How-To']",4.49,"_Thanks are due to '3113', who, despite a heavy workload, offered thoughtful, intelligent advice and comments. Bless you, thirteen, whoever you really are._ +* +Literotica specializes in erotic stories. OK, we all know that. So obviously, sexual union and communication is high on the theme list, and one of the things people often do when they communicate sexually is communicate verbally as well. But a whole lot of the dialogue on Literotica pages is profoundly unreal, whether the characters are merely talking, exchanging plot information, preparing for sex or love, in the throes of lust or passion, or chilling out afterwards. Why should this be? (Yeah, I know, there are plenty of honorable exceptions, but that's not the point here... yet). +Well, some of it's down to style and subject matter. Slut wives, talking vegetables, zombies, basic stroke stories, the purer adventures in fantasyland, don't demand realistic protagonists and don't usually need to develop characters into credible human beings. These stories aren't aiming for realism. But to take a theme like 'romance', or 'incest', or 'mature', or 'group sex', and to create believable people with motives and needs and reactions that will persuade the reader to suspend belief and think of them as real, if only for a moment : that takes a little more work. +When you've got the time, try this little experiment. Rig up a recorder with a decent mike, invite a couple of friends over, and start talking. As the awareness of being recorded fades you'll begin to talk more naturally. (Better still, don't tell them). Record enough to get a whole chunk of how you and your friends sound when you're talking casually. Doesn't matter what it's about: baseball, cooking, work... (If you're really brave, tape your lover and yourself when you're preparing for / doing / relaxing after sex/love). When you play that sucker back, listen carefully. Let me make a few predictions about what you'll notice. +• People don't talk in sentences. +• People contract words, often whole phrases. +• Words get mangled and slide together +• People do not use each other's names very much. +• People don't all speak the same way. +Let's expand these findings, and see what we can do with them: +• People don't talk in sentences. They think they do, but no fucking way. Grammar-free clauses, hesitations, corrections, repetition, meaningless interjections, sudden changes of subject... everything but clear, concise, grammatically correct pronouncements. Bummer. One of the things we could do here is just transcribe what people say. But unless you're a genius, transcription isn't the answer. You're writing a story, and your readers are going to need some help. Not too much though, or the dialogue will sound like a shopping list. Try this: transcribe part of what you've recorded and see the patterns, the rhythms, where the stress falls. Now write down what the person actually meant. There's a middle road here, and if you can identify it, so that the marks on the page echo the words in your head, you're on the way. In the following short example, stressed words are indicated in CAPITALIZED ITALICS. +Real person as recorded: +""So, um, I went to her HOUSE...ah...the NEW one...um, it's got this YARD? Have you SEEN it? Well it's kinda...REMEMBER her OLD place? Well...it's like... I mean, the OLD place had all these...um, BUSHES AN' SHIT... an' THIS one..."" +(No-one's going to want to read more than ten lines of this, and who can blame them? But, you've done two things. You've found the information words that are stressed in natural conversation, and therefore you've got the rhythm that this speaker uses. Now you can tidy it up without losing either). +Character's statement as written dialogue: +""So, I went to her HOUSE, the NEW one, and before, in her OLD place she had a YARD that was just FULL OF BUSHES and stuff, and THIS one...."" +(Of course, you're not going to put the capitals in, but the speech has the same rhythm and patterns as the spoken transcript, and it reads more naturally than): +""I went to her new house and unlike her old one, which had a yard that was full of shrubs, the new property..."" +• People contract words, often whole phrases, a usage which is called, technically, 'ellipsis'. There isn't a single native English speaker in the world who says 'I will', or 'He is', or 'They are not'. It's 'I'll', 'He's', 'They aren't', unless they are emphasizing or contradicting a point, or the phrase is inverted as a question, or it comes at the end of a sentence ('I'm cold, are you?' ... 'Yes, I am.'). How much ellipsis you use depends on your style, the story, the characters and the context, but it happens everywhere. Try spending a half hour not using these common contractions. First, you'll find it almost impossible, and second, your friends will wonder what the hell's wrong with you. If your characters' dialogue doesn't reflect this then you're kidding yourself and shortchanging your readers. +• Words get mangled and slide together. Writing this is harder. I use, e.g., 'wanna' and 'gonna', etc., when I'm writing about American characters, but I try to take care not to overdo it, or it looks like a bad attempt at dialect. Once again: style, story, characters, and context. +• People do not use each other's names very much when talking to each other, unless the conversation is very heavy or formal. We use eye contact to tell someone we're addressing them. In large groups, names are used to attract someone's attention, but not nearly as much as you might think. On the other hand it's a useful tool for the author if the speaker might otherwise be difficult to identify and you don't want to use 'he said / she said' the whole time. Local call. +• People don't all speak the same way. If you've got two characters conversing, and one is an old guy, grumpy, no college, been a mechanic all his life, and the other is a highly educated investment banker who's got an appointment at three and wants her car fixed now, they aren't going to sound the same. Different rhythms, different pitch, different vocabulary. Take your own voice away. Write the scene in a grossly exaggerated way, then pare it down until the essence of the characters is there in the way they speak. It's always harder to cut stuff out than to add it, but it's always the better way to attack the problem, and it nearly always leaves you with something cleaner and stronger than the unfocused page you started with. Do this right, and the characters will resonate in your readers' heads for a while. +People talking to each other in real life get round the grammar problem by punctuating their speech with pauses and tone changes. These are hell to transcribe. (Try to forget those little green lines that your spellchecker keeps inserting. It's designed for text, not speech, and it's dumber than my dick anyway). Written punctuation marks, used carefully, can go a long way towards telling your readers what the character's tone of voice, pitch, etc. is up to. When you're offering someone a drink in an intimate or casual situation, you probably say 'Coffee?', or 'You wanna coffee?', and not 'Would you like some coffee?'. It's not grammatically correct, but it's how people speak. On the other hand, if it's Great Aunt Eliza who's gasping for a drink, you're probably a lot more formal, especially if she's rich. +Now then, as we said, this is Literotica, and our characters spend a fair amount of time bopping each other's socks off, and rarely in total silence. What you and your lover say in bed is usually private, often silly, and sometimes weird. But here are some things I really don't say: maybe I've lived an unadventurous life... +""You are so hot"", ""That is so nasty"", ""Beg for it you fucking slut"", ""I'm gonna fuck your tight pussy."" +And here are some of the things that have never been said to me: +""I love the taste of your cum"", ""Make me your slut"", ""Fuck my dirty shit- hole"". +I guess I've just never met the right people. But if I find stuff like that masquerading as dialogue in a sex scene I sigh and look for something else. +Like I said earlier, if you're writing a simple stroke story, or an out-and- out (in-and-out!) fantasy, you can have your characters say what you like. But if you want them to have that third dimension, think carefully. Talking dirty does happen, and very nice too, but a little goes a hell of a long way. 'I am going to cum in your hot slut mouth you cocksucking wet cunt bitch.' isn't dialogue. It's one-handed keystroking. +Here is a piece of bedroom dialogue I found that sucks. I've omitted names, for obvious reasons, but otherwise it's just cut and paste, as it appeared: +""So what do I do first for you? What would you like me to do for you to please you? You are the teacher today OK?"" +I smiled and told him: ""Are you sure? You wouldn't want me to suck you off or sit on your cock and ride it until you cum? I know you like both of those!"" +He smiled and said: ""Well they both sound great, but is that what you want me to do for you? Would you rather have me eat and suck your pussy, or slowly work on your body and make it cum hard and long before we fuck? Your choice, just give me directions!"" +(If you heard that in a movie, you'd rupture yourself laughing. Read it aloud to yourself and then say: 'Hey, these characters are really credible. They sound filled with lust for each other.' Now go wash your mouth out with soap for telling naughty lies). +One of the problems with dialogue in bed is that just dialogue isn't usually enough. Unless there is some descriptive text as well the characters have to say far too much, far too explicitly, and far too often. People don't usually describe what they're doing (or are going to do) to their lover... at least I don't think they do. +If I were writing this scene, and if I wanted to keep to the narrative thread, I might produce something like this: +""You're the boss, sweetheart."" His voice was thick with desire, but still soft and reassuring, and he smiled. ""What's your pleasure?"" I shivered internally but decided to play his game. +""You sure about that? Suppose I check out how this tastes, or how it fills me up when I'm riding you? Wouldn't that be better?"" I caressed his cock and felt it throb against my thigh: he smiled again. +""Hell of a choice. Or we could turn it round."" His hand drifted from my breast to my mound. ""A little exploration here, maybe some attention elsewhere, and we'd still have all the rest waiting."" He was stroking me lightly as he spoke and I felt my pussy dampening under his touch. +OK, it's not perfect, but you might (just) imagine a couple saying something like that during foreplay, and it reads better than the original version by a long country mile. You could chop it down more if you wanted: +""Show me."" His voice was thick with desire and I shivered. +""You sure? I could see how you taste, how you fill me?"" His cock throbbed +""Hell of a choice."" He stroked my mound with knowing fingers. ""Here? Or maybe here? We'd still have all the rest waiting."" I felt my pussy dampening. +That's probably pruned a little too much, but that's not the point. Style, story, character, context. +Above all, read your dialogue out loud: or at least, read it out loud to yourself, though in my opinion genuinely out loud is better. This can be depressing at first. There's nothing more disheartening than slaving over a section of dialogue, editing, rewriting, sweating blood, and then saying it aloud and realizing that it sounds like a High School graduation speech read by a near moron. Imagine how the conversation sounds in your head, and look at the screen carefully. Is the choice of words believable? If not, change them. Is that a rising note? Put in a question mark. Is that a pause? Put in an extra comma, or suspension marks or something to show your reader what this person is doing with their voice, what their words mean, what their character actually sounds like, how they feel and think and behave. Ten words of good dialogue can tell you more about a character than a hundred words of descriptive text. +Read the good ones and learn. Literotica is great for that. Check out '3113', assorted 'kittens', (Selyna, Danielle, Flame), 'Dinsmore', 'Alex de Kok', 'Colleen Thomas', 'Stella Omega': of course there are more, plenty more, and I'm not omitting anyone deliberately, but those are the first ones that spring to my mind, mainly because they're the ones I've been reading recently. They're not infallible, no-one is, but we're not looking for Nobel Prize winners here, and if you want to see how characters are built without the author's voice intruding too much....'nuff said. +Now three personal hates: +• Exclamation marks suck, unless there's a truly excellent reason for them. People don't talk like that. Exclamation marks are for advertisements and the funnies. Two or more consecutive exclamation marks, and you're reading a no- brainer. +• Long lines of capital letters describing the noises people make at the point of orgasm are laughable. Also, lazy and unrealistic. Here, a short line of descriptive text is nearly always better. Compare: +""AAAAAAAAAARRGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!"" I / she screamed. +with +""A wordless cry of ecstasy was forced out of me / her."" +Which of them gets your imagination going? +• Tired clichés: 'gallons of cum', 'my white-hot jizz', 'jackhammered into her', (I truly hate that one), 'love-tube', 'man-meat', 'man-pussy', (yes, I actually read that on this site. I think it means 'rectum'), fuck-tunnel', 'fuck-muscle'... come on, people: a child of three could be more original. If I catch one of these early on, it's the back button for me. +I've been advised by a proof-reader / editor type person that this piece needs some links to other 'How To' submissions where some of the general points I've been trying to make are expanded, or which cover genres that I haven't touched on. The areas suggested in the first instance are +• Historical settings / period pieces: Good point. Even fifty years ago slang was different; constructions were often more complex, things that people talked about were not always what we chat about today. The occasional ""Gadzooks"" or ""Forsooth"" or ""Man, that is so groovy"" isn't going to hack it. +• Sci-Fi /Future worlds: You can have so much fun here, though I have to say it's not an area that engages me much. I suppose that style, story, character, context still holds good, but beyond that... I guess there's a 'how to' piece there waiting for someone to write it. +• Writing dialect: a subject in itself, as it covers vocabulary, rhythm, word order, types of contraction... too much for this piece. +There have to be other mentions that are necessary, so I'm throwing this open to you: I don't have the time or the patience to plow through all the submissions in this section looking for the gems: if there's anything that you've found helpful or which has lit up that cartoon light bulb above your head, put it in the comment section with a link. Please. +One last point: none of these rules are golden. If you overdo punctuation, or contraction, or ellipsis, or anything, it won't work. You'll have gone too far the other way, and when you read it aloud you'll blush with shame (again). But use these hints judiciously, striving for the balance between clarity and realism, and you'll feel so good when you've done it... your work will be better... and your readers (and characters) will appreciate it too." +157,Diary of a Phone Sex Operator,peepshowgirl,How To,2013-06-17,2013-06-17,2022-01-04 08:27:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/diary-of-a-phone-sex-operator,How I spent my summer vacation.,"['Phone Sex', 'Phone Sex Operator', 'Summer Vacation', 'Vacation']",4.12,"Desire is such a curious thing, universal yet utterly subjective. The earliest teachings of Buddha instruct that the root of suffering is found in desire. If you want more than you presently have, then you will never be satisfied with what exists at your fingertips. This may be true but it is my belief that the root of success may also be located squarely at the center of desire. Desire instructs us. Propels us into motion. Why did the chicken cross the road? Desire. Why else? +I have always been curious about what makes other people tick. WHY they do WHAT they do? I can spend hours sitting quietly on a bench in the mall, watching people walk by. I wonder about what they are wearing, who they are with, what they may be buying. I am a bit of a voyeur, I suppose, but really, people are just so fucking fascinating. Recently, I had an opportunity to explore the nature of desire. It was my intention to find something new and unique to say about desire. Legitimate research using books, professional journals and citable sources. Instead, I stepped quite close to the subject and found myself considering desire on a more personal level. What I discovered was not at all what I had set out to find, but in the end, I believe it was exactly what I was looking for. +Upon reflection, I am aware that this story may become a little unseemly. Still, if you continue reading, it is important that you try to consider exactly how these sorts of things develop. In hindsight, it is always easy to see the size and shape of choices, but life doesn't happen in hindsight. Instead, each progression of events is a ripple, so natural and seamless, as to appear almost inconsequential. After the fact, everything is obvious. Fortunately, the things I gained from this experience turned out to be immeasurable valuable. (And the rest? Eh, the rest was easily discarded.) +Here's how it happened: +I had been ruminating about an independent study project slotted for my summer break. I needed a way to make-up a few academic hours but I also needed a summer job. The subject of my proposed research project was Gender and Sexuality in Contemporary Culture. A large canvas to cover indeed. I enjoy both pop-culture, and an academic examination of Gender and Sex, as much as the next person, maybe even a bit more than some. Still, no one, least of all my academic adviser, wanted to read a 50 page document in which I regurgitated statistics about television vixens or sexist food advertising strategies. Serendipitously, right before summer break began, someone suggested I try exploring the ""specificity of desire""... the unique fingerprint of individual desires. This idea sounded as good as any I had considered. What follows is the evolution of that project. This is the (almost) completely true story of how I became a phone-sex operator. +NOTE: At this point in the story, I want to make a confession. I really want you to like me so I feel inclined to tell you what I think you want to hear... and I think you want to hear that I am not the kind of girl who would consider taking a job as a phone-sex operator. At the risk of disappointing you, dear reader, the truth is far less flattering. Taking the job was not a difficult decision to make. Almost as soon as the idea popped into my head, on some level I already knew that I was going to make it happen. That is just the way I operate. ""Wow, that stove eye looks hot. I think I'll touch it and find out."" +As it turned out, the real challenge was not taking the job. The real challenge was explaining this plan in a way that did not make me (1) sound like a lunatic or (2) feel like a prostitute. Nevertheless, I did rationalize this peculiar decision, to my closest friends, to my academic advisor and to myself. I explained that I only intended to be employed in this questionable profession for a short time and then I reminded everyone that it would be criminal to decline the chance to make money by earning class credits. Privately, the thought of doing something so naughty was absolutely irresistible. I was bored and I needed to be reminded that I was still capable of surprise. Besides, how hard was it really going to be, sitting in an air- conditioned house, talking on the telephone? +NOTE: In case you are thinking that I am very clever for coming up with this moneymaking / credit-earning scheme, please consider carefully. Nothing can prepare you for phone sex with strangers. Nothing, that is, except maybe previous phone sex with strangers. +In order to get approval for this unusual scheme, I performed a little song- and-dance routine for my academic advisor and eventually got a (reluctant) thumbs-up. I poked around the internet for a while, called a few friends, peeked into a few cyber-windows and eventually found an agency. Within two weeks of submitting an online application to a national chatline service, I was hired, trained, and given an access number. The training consisted of some dirty Instant Messaging with a professional operator. She typed something dirty and I typed an equally dirty response, then she analyzed my banter. After only about an hour or so, she suggested I say 'cock' more often and then she pronounced me ready-for-service. +NOTE: This leads me to a frequently ignored fact about phone sex: Only men call. It does not matter who answers, the caller is almost always male. The reasons for this gender anomaly are perhaps better left for another day, but I thought it was worth mentioning... that boys make almost all of the dirty calls. But really, is that surprising to anyone? +Once training was complete, my next task was to design a character that would entice potential callers into pulling out their credit cards and picking up the telephone. I was instructed to try to sound sexy but remain accessible. I was warned to avoid cliché stripper names, which meant I had to abandon my hopes of calling myself Hunny Potter. ""Choose a name that won't make you giggle when introducing yourself"" my trainer suggested ""Choose something feminine and familiar."" I decided to choose a name that was enough like my own that I would not forget who I was supposed to be. With my name chosen and my identity outlined, it was time to set up my first audio profile. +Hi, I'm Jenny. I'm 5'8"", 27 years old, long dark hair with an athletic build. I have a boring day-job so at night I really want to get WILD. There's no need to keep listening to these recordings. Go ahead and choose me, at extension blah, blah, blah. We're gonna have so much fun. +(Wait for it, wait for it... my purring tagline) +Come on, you know you want to... +And although NOTHING in this description was even remotely true, they did want to. They wanted to call and they wanted to talk to Jenny. They began calling within twenty minutes of signing-on and they called regularly until I finally deleted my listing. Suffice it to say that at a minimum of twenty calls per week, it doesn't take long to decide if professional telephone sex operator is the right occupation for any reasonable person. +The calls ranged in length from thirty second 'cum' calls to thirty minute 'pre-paid' calls. Every call was different. Some callers wanted to tell me things, some wanted me to tell them things. Some calls were lewd and disturbing while others were ordinary and tame. No matter the call, my objective was the same: be good at the job, but not TOO good. Keep them engaged for a minimum of six minutes. That, ladies and gentlemen, is how to earn maximum dollars as a phone sex operator... long calls equal more money. +The pay scale for most agencies breaks down about the same: under six minutes and the operator earns .10 cents per minute; over eight minutes and s/he earns .40 cents per minute. It is easy to see that a few minutes can make a substantial difference over a week's time. Unfortunately, anyone who has ever tried to slow sex, without stopping it completely, knows how tricky that can be. When it comes to sex, there is a kind-of +'point-of-no-return' and that point is not always easy to recognize, especially with a total stranger who is panting obscenities into the telephone receiver. Add a price tag of $1.99 per minute and you can see why this is a skill that must be cultivated in order to be a successful operator. +Once I had secured my employment, it occurred to me that I might actually be bad at phone sex. Admittedly, I have been kissed before but I do not have much experience talking about it. I wondered if my imagination would hold up under close inspection. My trainer's only advice, ""In for a penny, in for a pound."" (Sadly, her advice was far less valuable once I realized she was a phone sex operator who billed herself as a ""telephone actress"" without an ounce of irony.) +In addition to my concern about my own sexual imagination, I had worried about a couple of other things. Firstly, I was afraid that phone-sex might be too weird or terrible or disturbing. Although I am not a complete innocent, I really did not know what to expect. Secondly, and maybe worse, I was afraid that the illicit nature of the job might actually turn out to be something I enjoyed. I knew that it would be understandable, possibly even redeeming, if I was a terrible phone sex operator. If, on the other hand, I sat around all day with my hand shoved down the front of my pants, waiting for the telephone to ring...well, that would be very unfortunate. +As it turns out, although I wasn't a ""natural"", I adjusted far more quickly than I had expected. By the end of the first week, I was quietly doing house work or eating dinner while engaging in some pretty salty conversations. Luckily, when an operator purrs ""Mmmm"" into the telephone, it is almost impossible to discern whether it is sexual ecstasy or simply that she has a mouth is full of red beans and rice. During most of the calls, I was either totally disinterested or mildly repulsed. There were a lot of times when I had to bite my tongue to keep from laughing, and a couple of times when I wanted to hang-up and take a shower. Still, hidden amongst the sometimes silly, frequently vile, interactions were a couple of times when I was genuinely engaged and even once or twice when I as a little turned-on. Not many times, of course, but to be completely honest, there were a few. +I remained an awkward operator, embarrassed most of the time... and that NEVER got any easier for me. Each time I said hello, my hands trembled a little and my stomach flipped. I stumbled through the initial greetings and struggled to make small talk. It was difficult not to ask personal questions to ease the awkwardness, like ""Where do you live?"" or ""What do you do for a living?"" After a while I realized that if I could make it through the first few minutes, I usually picked up a kind-of rhythm. I never got very good at it but after a while, I also was not completely terrible. Turns out, when it comes to phone sex, not being terrible if pretty much all that is required. These men are not calling for subtlety or nuance; they are calling for telephone sex. I did not have to be talented; I just had to be willing. +To clock-in each day, I dialed an 800 number and typed in a code. After that, my telephone would only ring from the chatline switchboard, until I called again and retyped the code to clock-out. When working, I would pick up the receiver after the first ring and immediately hear a 'whisper message', the switchboard operator preparing me for the caller. The best whisper messages announced 'prepaid' calls. A 15 to 30 minute call prepaid with a credit card. These calls offered just enough time to relax and get acquainted, but not so long as to fall in love. 15 minutes may not sound like a lot of time, I know, but once the call has been made and the caller is sitting with his cock in his hand, I imagine it can feel like an eternity if done properly. +Bad calls were known as 'hard-core' or 'cum' calls. The whisper message before one of these calls was hissed into the phone like an air-raid siren announcing incoming fire. ""John wants a blowjob. HARD CORE, HARD CORE!"" Sexline operators translate ""hard core"" to mean a battle of wills. A battle to postpone orgasm by any means necessary. Sometimes I would try a sneaky-distraction: ""Tell me where you're sitting so I can imagine you. Sofa, recliner? Mmmm, I love a big old recliner."" Inside, I would be thinking, ""Really, Jenny? Really? A recliner. Is that what does it for you?"" With other callers, I would use the subtle shame approach, ""God, I love a man who knows what he wants... but wait on me. You don't want to finish TOO fast and leave me all hot and bothered. That wouldn't be very nice."" Again, I'd have to wonder if nice was a real concern to this man whose only instruction thus far had been, ""Suck it good, slut."" +I am sure if given a few minutes and a frosty mug or two, most of you could come-up with almost every scenario. A dude in lacy panties, a guy who wants to be called names because his penis is tiny and (my personal favorite) the man who wants you to put your feet on his 'junk.' Simply try to imagine all the things no self-respecting person would admit to enjoying and that is what phone sex involves. +The biggest surprise during my experience was the nature of the hang-up. The closing of every call was exactly the same. Click, THE END. It never varied, not one bit. No matter the call type or the caller's disposition, every call ended with, ""Pant, pant... click..."" No one ever said ""Thanks Jenny, that was great."" Or even a simple ""Good-bye."" Nope, all I got was a grunt and a dial tone, every single time. EVERY! SINGLE! TIME! The embarrassing part is that sometimes I would still be talking, right in the middle of saying something filthy, and they'd finish and hang-up. It might be a minute or two before I realized I was whispering into a dead line. Look, I was not expecting a love song or a gift card to Target, but for heaven's sake, an acknowledgement might have been nice. +After one very strange summer, I decided that I had probably learned everything I could from phone sex. I did not hate the men who had called but I disliked most of them a little. I was not irreparably damaged by the experience but I was altered in some fundamental way. I had come into the project with a fairly broad sense of sexual ethics, believing healthy sex to be any informed and consensual act of shared pleasure by two (or more) consenting adults. As long as there was no coercion, no children, and no animals, whatever grown people wanted to do together was just fine. It could be tender and loving, but it did not have to be. I was comfortable knowing that some couples would caress each other gently while others would make use of a brass-handled hair brush and a couple of little wooden clothes pins. What I mean is... I knew from the start that pleasure for one might not be pleasure for another and that made perfect sense to me. These men, however, managed to reduce sex to a bodily function, like having a shit or blowing your nose, and that, though not surprising, was a little disappointing. +The day I told my best friend that I had finally decided to resign my position as a ""telephone actress"" and begin the process of piecing together my research, his only question was, ""Did you learn anything from the experience?"" I did not know the answer to that question then, but after taking some time to process, I believe I do now. The answer is both yes and no. Yes, I did learn a bit about professional phone sex (say cock a lot) and about kink culture (say cock a lot), but I did not have any startling revelations about the nature of desire. Working as a phone sex operator simply confirmed many of the things I had already come to believe over the years: +(1) People usually desire most those things which are forbidden to them. +(2) No one is ever as normal as s/he seems. +(3) Sex without context is no more significant than a finger in another person's ear. +(4) Pushed far enough, every open-minded, sexually-evolved person will eventually furrow their brow and say, ""Well now, THAT is just plain weird!"" +I am still not sure whether desire is located at the heart of suffering or the center of success but perhaps these two locations are not mutually exclusive. As Lawrence Block so famously said, ""Look for something, find something else, and realize that what you've found is more suited to your needs than what you thought you were looking for."" If desire is wanting, then perhaps happiness is seeking... and that, dear reader, makes perfect sense to me." +158,Dictionary Smarts Can Up Ratings,sr71plt,How To,2012-12-05,2012-12-05,2022-01-04 08:27:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/dictionary-smarts-can-up-ratings,Using the dictionary to improve story quality—U.S. Style.,"['Capitalization', 'Dictionary', 'Editing', 'Hyphenation', 'Rating Improvement', 'Review', 'Self-Editing', 'Spelling', 'Story Improvement']",4.53,"A story is meant to be a partnership of shared understanding and appreciation between the author and reader, not an author's ""just try to understand what I've written"" game (well, for most of us). The dictionary is an aid to writers (and readers) in making this happen, and there is a way to ""read"" the dictionary to take much of the burden of ""what is right and what is wrong"" off the shoulders of writers to a greater extent than most authors seem to realize. Here are a few tips for ""reading"" the dictionary in U.S. publishing style to take some of the guesswork out of spelling, hyphenation, and capitalization decisions, to free time for the creative aspects of story writing, and to help your story ratings go up, if you are a Literotica author, or to help you clean up a story if you are a Literotica editor. +First, there are basically two types of English-language dictionaries. There are **descriptive** dictionaries that focus on telling you the latest information available on ""what is"" in word usage. _Merriam-Webster's Collegiate_ dictionary is one of these kind. And then there are **prescriptive** dictionaries, such as the _American Heritage_ dictionary that focus on telling you the ""why"" of word usage. Both kinds of dictionaries are trying to help writers make the best and least obtrusive choices in word usage. And most writers miss the boat named _Opportunity_ by not using the dictionary enough—and most editors would have been able to see through a veil of sloppy writing to see content issues better and to improve an author's story significantly if the author had used the dictionary more. Although it's good to consult both types of dictionaries when working with a word meaning, this essay will concentrate on the descriptive dictionary, and, in particular, _Merriam-Webster's Collegiate_ dictionary (which isn't just in print; it's available for free use on line), because the essay is concentrating on helping Literotica authors (and editors) who are using the U.S. style pick the best- choice renderings of words for their Literotica stories. +It's fine to write Literotica stories in the styles of other English-language markets as well, and much of what you find here is relevant for those markets too, but there will be variations in those systems that aren't covered here. This is targeted to the stories being written in the U.S. style (which is the primary style of Literotica). For the British-style market, the dictionary of choice is the _Oxford_ dictionary. +U.S. publishing has selected two descriptive dictionaries as its spelling/hyphenation/capitalization authorities. These are the best for a Literotica author writing in the U.S. style to use simply because the whole point of such standardization is to make the presentation of a story as transparent and understandable for the reader as possible so that the reader can concentrate on the content of the story itself. The kicker is that when the Literotica story reader isn't given this consideration, the vengeance taken is usually shown in the story rating and the ""get an editor"" comments. You don't need an editor to get a lot of this right. +The standard style guide for U.S. market fiction publishing is the _Chicago Manual of Style_ (CMS—because nearly all publishers accept this authority so that there will be a recognized standard). The CMS, again for the sake of making life simple and understandable and word renderings transparent for the reader, has identified two dictionaries as ""best choices"" (CMS, 2.51). The absolute best is _Webster's Third New International Dictionary_. Almost no one, including publishing houses, actually uses this, though, because it is so humongous in bulk that it requires its own special table to reside on and you'd need a crane to move it across the room. This leaves the latest edition (currently the eleventh) of the _Merriam-Webster's Collegiate_ dictionary as the one of choice. +The smart writer won't fight using this dictionary—the author will just be relieved the publishing industry is helping by reducing the number of wheels that have to be reinvented each time you sit down to write a story. +(A couple of asides on the _Webster's_ dictionary. First, ""Webster's"" is a generic name identifying a style of dictionary, not a company name. And, although the current edition of _Webster's Collegiate_ dictionary is the eleventh edition, this dictionary is actually updated every time there is a new printing, which is a couple of times a year. And this is why the publishing industry has chosen it for its descriptive dictionary. It updates current word usage every couple of months. Of course, this also means that that ""latest"" edition you bought yesterday will, like all those damnable Microsoft products, no longer be the ""latest"" information a couple of months after you'd laid out twenty-five bucks for a copy. But you can access it on line for free.) +OK, then, how can learning how to ""read"" dictionary entries help the writer? If you learn just a few pointers on what the dictionary is trying to do for you, you will save time and worry about whether you are making the best spelling, hyphenation, capitalization choices. This will both keep you from waking up in a sweat in the night wondering why you spelled _that_ word _that_ way and will make more time and energy available to you for the creative aspects of story writing. And it will be good karma for your Literotica story ratings and comments too. + **Spelling** + _Webster's Collegiate_ dictionary has built-in pointers on how best to spell a word: +Any word entered is spelled correctly in normal writing. U.S. publishing, however, wants words spelled in as standard a way as possible so that readers don't trip over them or stop to consider whether they agree with a spelling chosen, and thus lose the flow of the story. So, in the U.S. publishing style, the first-listed choice is the standard. For instance, in normal writing the renderings ""judgment"" and ""judgement"" are both proper spellings (as long as you stick to just one version throughout the work), but the dictionary helps you identify which one the U.S. publishing industry prefers. If you go to that word, you will find the listing ""judgment or judgement."" This is signaling that the first-listed form is preferred. +And speaking of ""signaling,"" if you go to ""signal"" to see the declension of ""signaling,"" you'll see ""signaling or signalling."" This is telling you that, although ""signalling"" is acceptable in normal writing, the first-mentioned version, ""signaling,"" is the preferred spelling for story writers. +So, look for and use the first listed rendering. That's the preferred choice. Zero sweat for you if you just go with the flow. It's the story elements that are the creative writing process, not the word spelling. +For the U.S. style writer, the dictionary will also identify British variation spellings (which are just fine in the British system, but shouldn't be found in U.S.-style stories). Under ""labor,"" for instance, you will find the full listing definitions. And under the British equivalent, ""labour,"" listing, you will find "" _chiefly Brit var of_ LABOR,"" which is telling you that ""labor"" is the best choice (in U.S. style writing). It probably won't even include any definition at the ""labour"" listing. This is a ""duh"" signal that this isn't where the action on that word is. +If you find the term _trademark_ behind an entry (e.g., ""Dolby""), by law you have to spell it exactly that way. You can use it in your writing, you just have to spell it as trademarked. + **Hyphenation** +Probably the most head-scratching puzzle in the realm of spelling decisions is what to hyphenate. The dictionary will help with some of this (but not all of it—there are all sorts of instances like combined adjectives, e.g., ""blue-eyed girl,"" and special cases like ""six-year-old-boy"" that aren't spelling issues. Similarly, combinations can be treated differently depending on where they are in the sentence, e.g., ""She was given the heart-to-heart talk"" but ""The talk she was given was heart to heart."" These sometimes would take a masters in grammar to work out correctly, unfortunately, so we'll just ignore them here. This is about simpler, more understandable basic good habits you can develop). +The dictionary shows much in the way of proper hyphenation, and the basic _Chicago Manual of Style_ rule is that if you find the term in the dictionary, follow its lead on hyphenation, and if you don't find the combined-word term in the dictionary, don't either hyphenate it or run it together—leave a space between the elements (CMS, 7.85). The general rule of CMS on hyphenation is, ""if in doubt, don't."" (And don't be Germanic and run all of the elements together in one long glop, unless the dictionary tells you to.) +One of the stickiest issues with hyphenation in Literotica stories is use of hyphens for prefixes, like ante, anti, bi, bio, co, counter, extra, infra, inter, intra, macro, meta, micro, mid, mini, multi, neo, non, over, post, pre, pro proto, pseudo, re, semi, soci, sub, supr, trans, ultra, un, and (*whew*) under. Literotica authors seem to love to set these prefixes off with hyphens, and in nearly every case they were wrong to do so. The dictionary can help you make decisions on when a hyphen for such a prefix is in order (almost never). If you find it hyphenated in the dictionary, than hyphenate it. And if you don't, don't—run the elements together without a space. If you look at the dictionary right where any of these prefixes would be listed alphabetically, you'll find a long list of words showing that they aren't hyphenated. Chances are good the word you are looking for is on that list. The dictionary people took the time to run those long lists to try to help you shake the usually wrong-headed hyphenation habit. + **Capitalization** +Being able to read a dictionary can also help in capitalization decisions. (And, like hyphenation, the rule of thumb is ""when in doubt, don't."" No, English isn't so close to German that we capitalize every noun.) +If the word is always capitalized, it will be listed that way—e.g. ""Friday"" +If an element of a term is capitalized but other elements aren't, it will be listed that way—e.g., Parkinson's disease. +If some forms of the word are capitalized but others aren't, it will be listed in lower case and identify when it's capitalized—e.g. [b]swede[/b]: _cap_ , a native or inhabitant of Sweden; (not cap), a type of rutaba. +Abbreviations (using full caps) will be listed in full caps—e.g., AIDS. +Formal titles preceded by prefixes (with, in such cases, do take hyphens) will be shown as they should be rendered—e.g., Neo-Expressionism; off-off-Broadway. + **Dialogue in Fiction** +You are not bound by dictionary spellings in dialogue rendering where you are trying to show voice patterns, regional dialect, or education levels of characters, e.g., ""sheeet"" for ""shit"" or ""gawd"" for ""God"" or ""pul-eeze"" for ""please."" What you should do, however, is to remain consistent for that character. + **Bottom Line** +The **POINT** is that, just by learning a few tricks of being able to read guides to ""best choice"" word decisions in the dictionary—and by actually turning to the dictionary when there's the least bit of question that you are rendering a word or word combination correctly—you, as a Literotica author, can improve the presentation of your stories significantly, free up time and energy for the creative aspects of your writing, and improve your connection to and appreciation by the reader. And if you do this and your story plotlines and characterizations are good and your sex scenes hot, your story ratings most likely will go up and your ""get an editor"" comments most likely will go down. +These have been just few, basic pointers—although ones involving mistakes that run rampant in the Literotica story file—on reading the dictionary. If you want to become a master at it, charts and discussions on what the information given in a dictionary entry means—and can help you—can be found in the early pages of _Webster's_." +159,Dig Your Fingernails in Deep,MSTarot,How To,2013-12-05,2013-12-05,2022-01-04 08:27:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/dig-your-fingernails-in-deep,A sermon on writing.,"['Job', 'Perserverance', 'Writing']",4.69,"""Why do you write?"" +You will see this question a lot in your life as a writer. It's almost as popular as the more often heard, ""Where do you get your ideas from?"" +The funny thing about that second question is, there is not a good answer. Oh, you can cite sources and places and conversations all day about where your ideas come from, and while that is true enough, there is always that thought at the back of your head. ""Is that really where I get them from?"" That thought may trouble you for most of your life as a writer. But that other question... +""Why do you write?"" +That has an answer. What is it? +Hum... because you have no choice? Bullshit, you could walk away from the keyboard, and all those stories would simply sit and simmer till you forgot them. Why else would authors say they carry a notebook to jog down ideas when they come? Because the good ones fade. If you stop writing, the good and bad story ideas will fade. Before long it will feel like too much of a struggle to even come up with a title let alone a story to put under it. +""So why do you write?"" +To reach out and make someone feel what I want them to feel. Okay... but why would you want to do that? What difference will it make that you made someone you will never see smile, or laugh, or cry... or get a hard-on? Will you even know that you did that? Oh I'm sure you will get a number of comments that will tell you that you moved someone. That they smiled or cried when they read your story. That they laughed or got hard (or wet). But is that enough? Is that enough reason to sit in front of a computer pouring out your ideas? Maybe for a few it is, but even for them, there will come a time when they feel they just don't have a story to tell. Writer's block. +""SO WHY DO YOU WRITE?"" +Because we want to be heard! +We want to be the person that when we speak, all eyes turn to us. The person that no one would dare to interrupt while we talk. That people will listen to with passion filling their hearts. That passion growing with our every word! We want that with all our innermost desire, yet most of us, when confronted with the chance to be that person... have backed down. Remained silent. Stood at the back of the crowd and listened to someone else say what we wanted to say, if we had found the courage to step up and say it out loud. +We are the unheard... yet with a keyboard before us we can and will let our words ring out. We will with every keystroke cry to the very heavens ""I will to be heard!"" +""... I want to be remembered"" +Is that it? Is that why you write? So some small part of 'you' will not be forgotten when the years have passed? When the last echoes of our spoken words have faded to just a dim memory?

Have them turning page after page. Be the writer that made the reader miss work because they stayed up all night trying to finish a story! +Is that what you want? Really? +It will take your full effort. Your every waking moment. It will take time that you will wish you could have spent doing something else. It will take time you should have been asleep. Writing must become the reason that you turn on the computer. The reason you carry a pencil and notebook everywhere you go. The really famous writers get up in the morning, get dressed and go to their 'office'. They sit down and they write. Not because they are in the mood. Not because inspiration struck them. They do it because it pays their bills. Puts food on their table. Pays for their kids to go to school. You know, that sounds like a... Job? +Yeah... it's their job. +A job just like the one you have. They don't want to be there, they don't want to be doing what they're doing. They can't wait till break-time, lunchtime, end of 'shift' time. They can't wait to get out of that 'office' and go do something fun. Now I'm sure that some of them love what they do. They love to get up and spend the day writing. Well, some people love what they do for a living too. Some of us, hell, most of us hate it. Just remember the old saying about work, ""If it was fun to do they wouldn't have to pay you."" +Also remember in the end whether they loved writing or hated it doesn't matter. They wrote. They wrote and they wrote and they wrote...and they will be remembered. For how long, no one can say for sure, but it will be a lot longer than most spoken words. If you think that what you have to 'say' is worth remembering too, then you need have the same level of dedication that they do. Put your heart into what you write, be it a short little story written for fun or a novel you gave up years of your life to see finished. Write a comedy, a tragedy, a drama. Make them laugh, make them cry, piss someone off and make them feel every word. When you write, let it be from your head and your heart and your soul. Leave nothing behind that you wish you had said. When they ask you why do you write, you look them in the eye. Take a deep breath and say- +""Because I'm a writer. It's what I do."" +And when they get that stupid smirk on their face and ask, ""Well, why do you write erotica?"" +Just smile at them and tell them with a grin. +""Because this writer wants to be remembered for being naughty of course."" +Always with a grin, +M.S.

After eyes and lips, the answer was overwhelmingly hands. Sure, girls might want to see a nice ass, strong thighs, or broad shoulders, but if a man has nice hands, women will notice him. I know you guys are rubbing your heads and thinking to yourself...uh yeah...sure. But hear me out. +In every relationship I've had with another woman, as different in nature and varied as they were, each sexual experience had one thing in common. Fingering. Lots and lots of fingering. It's not as if we didn't have dildos, vibrators, strap-ons, etc laying around to use. We just chose not to. And even though no one eats pussy better than a woman, that's not how we spent the majority of our time in bed either. It always went back to fingers. And I'll tell you why. For a woman, it is ten times easier to have an orgasm from fingering than from fucking or even being eaten out. (If done correctly anyway.) +You have to take into consideration that in order for a woman to have an orgasm, not only must all the right spots down below be stimulated, but she has to be able to relax and let go all at the same time. That can be kinda difficult when you have someone's face buried between your thighs, practically begging you to cum with every lick, suck, and flick of their tongue. And no matter how good they are at it, they may or may not be able to get you there. But fingering...that's something entirely different. +Let's just take a purely psychological look at it first. Sexually, most women need to feel connected to the person they are with (even if only for that moment) in order to truly enjoy sex. Women like to be kissed and touched and held. And those things are very difficult when all you can even see of the guy is the top of his head and occasionally his eyeballs peering out from between your legs (which can be a really bizarre and distracting sight at times). But if the guy is laying beside you, you're all wrapped up in his arms, his lips are traveling all over your neck, your breasts, and of course your lips, and then his fingers start to dance up the inside of your thigh and then up to your soft, wet lips...well, that's just heaven. As the girl, you get to feel safe and loved. When a guy goes down on you, it gets kinda lonely up top sometimes. And personally, I'd rather a guy spend the majority of his time kissing the lips on my face than the ones between my legs. (Not that oral sex isn't amazing at times...I'm just asking you to take another look at an old favorite.) +Do you guys remember the first time you got a girl to fuck you? Do you remember how that happened? I'd be willing to bet that it included a lot of fingering. It's funny that teenage boys know that, but somehow grown men tend to forget it. They just want to skip right over it and get on to 'the real stuff'. Fingering is just the preview before the main attraction, right? Wrong. +The easiest way for a woman to cum is through manual stimulation. Think about it...your fingers can do all kinds of things all at the same time. Rub, squeeze, pinch, tickle, thrust, plunge, grind. They can be gentle and careful or rigid and rough. You can hit all the right spots at the same time and your jaw doesn't even lock up in the process. And I promise...if you're patient and good at it, she'll cum at least twice and still be begging you to fuck her. I know I would. +Try this...it would certainly work on me: +Start very slowly...I'm talking so slowly that she doesn't even realize your fingers are there for a few minutes. Barely graze her lips with your fingers, play with any hair she might have, and as she begins to get wet, slide your fingers over the slippery spot, but don't let them slip between her lips yet. +After a few minutes of that blissful torture, she'll probably start to do one of two things. She'll either begin to spread her legs more and more. Or her hips will start to move (most likely in little circles or up toward your fingers trying to get you to slide them in without having to tell you). Don't do it. As soon as she starts doing that, you have her. Let your fingers slide down lower, running the tip of one of your wet fingers over her asshole. (Don't get all brave though and try to slide it in. That's for another time.) Gently...very gently, using your wet finger, stroke it for just a few seconds, never penetrating, just grazing. Then slide your fingers back up and let just the tip of one finger slip between her lips...not inside her, just parting the lips. +Take your finger and run it from the vaginal opening all the way up to where the lips begin. Go back and forth, slowly and gently a few times, spreading out the juices, making her slit soaked, top to bottom. Not only will it make it easier for your finger to glide over all the right spots, but the more moist the skin down there, the more sensation there is. (That's why shaving is so nice...no hair to hold the moisture so it stays on the skin.) +To familiarize you guys with a part of the female anatomy that is rarely discussed...something I never even knew about until I was with my first lesbian...the clit vein. This is the vein that carries all the blood to the clit...that is its only function. So as you might imagine, stimulating that vein is like using a remote control on the clit. And you can be rougher on the clit vein than on the clit itself. Seriously, pay attention to where female porn stars are rubbing themselves when masturbating on screen. It's up higher than the clit. And even if the tip of their finger is on that magic button, the majority of their finger is rubbing much harder on the skin above it. That's where the clit vein is. To find it, start where her lips begin under her pubic hair (or where it would be if she had any). Start running your finger straight down, toward the vaginal opening and you'll feel a hard little shaft-like thing that runs parallel to the lips and dead ends at the clit. Now, with your wet finger, maybe even two of them, rub that vein...gently at first, but you can build up to a little pressure. Just gauge her responses. +By this point, she's probably trying to finger herself, or at the very least, trying to push your fingers down farther. So, without further hesitation, slip ONE finger inside her and watch her buck her hips trying to get you to finger fuck her. But don't. Using that one finger, just explore inside her for a few minutes very slowly. (And of course, having your thumb every so gently rubbing her clit right then would be a great idea!) +Now, she should be squirming, biting your neck, grinding against your hand, twisting her own nipples, and most likely, reaching for your hard cock (if she hasn't already). But just let this one be about her for a while. Actually, I suggest leaving your underwear on and letting her touch you through them for a while...keeps things from getting too um...explosive...too soon. +The poor girl has to be frenzied by now, so slide another finger inside her and reach for the g-spot with those fingers while still rubbing her clit with your thumb (just make sure you aren't putting too much pressure on her clit or getting too overzealous with it cause that can really hurt). While gripping her in that C-clamp (as Jimmy refers to it), start to grind your fingers into her, putting pressure on the g-spot. That in and out stuff doesn't really do much with fingers unless you're using more than two. +As she gets wetter and wetter (and trust me, after all that, if you put pressure on the g-spot long enough, she might just gush for you), give her another finger (or two if she wants). And once you have three (or four) fingers inside her, you can get a little rougher because she's definitely gonna have the lubrication for it. That's where the strong, forceful arms come in handy. Be as rough as she wants. Fuck her with your fingers (you don't really have to worry about the clit anymore at this point...if she needs it, she'll rub it herself. But I certainly wouldn't require clitoral stimulation with everything else going on.). Do it hard and don't pull your fingers all the way out. It's just like when a woman is on top of you. Grind her pussy with your fingers...a circular motion couldn't hurt either. You can even use your knee behind your hand to push your fingers in more deeply...or even have her ride your fingers the way she wants to ride your cock. +Hmmm...I got started on that and just couldn't stop. I've also managed to get myself all wet at work again! Seriously, guys, use some of that manual dexterity you've gained from playing all those video games. Do this to a woman and she will not only be begging you to fuck her, but you will possibly give her the coveted female ejaculation orgasm...and that is just a whole other ballgame, folks!" +161,Dining at the Furry Snack Bar,JanusGoneAwry,How To,2019-01-25,2019-01-25,2022-01-04 08:27:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/dining-at-the-furry-snack-bar,Going down will never be the same.,"['Bearded Clam', 'Cunnilingus', 'Eating Pussy', 'Fish Taco', 'Going Down', 'Musky Cave', 'Orgasm', 'Suck That Clit', 'Tasty', 'Yumm']",4.42,"A female friend of mine named Jade was complaining recently; ""Why don't men understand how to fucking go down on a woman?"" +""Huh? Wait, what? I think that we understand pretty fucking well about going down on you,"" I replied. +""Then why don't you guys do it RIGHT?"" she begged. +I offered up a strong argument on behalf of myself and my gender, going so far as to offer to ""show"" her my handy work, but she continued to protest the fact that we don't know what the hell we're doing ""down there"". Unfortunately, she declined my offer and that was too bad for many reasons not the least of which because I am certain that I can make her howl at the moon but truth be told I've also been dying to get into her undies for a very long time. That is, as they say, another story. +So, for the better part of two weeks her argument that we don't know what we're doing when we're ""down there"" rattled around in my brain. In fact, I was preoccupied by it and so I started to do some research-if you can call watching porn research that is-and the next time Jade and I met up for lunch I told her about my fledgling obsession with her assertion that we are less than competent in the act of eating pussy. She laughed because she had already moved on-as women often do-but she wanted to know what I had learned. +I shared my observations, both from my personal experience and from the porn I had watched, and she told me that I was making good progress but that I was overthinking it and needed to become more intuitive in my approach. ""OK,"" I said as I raised my hands over my head. ""If you don't believe that we are doing it right, tell me how to do it right and I'll post your instructions on the web where a large number of men will have access to it."" +""Cool!"" she said as an ear to ear smile spread across her astonishingly beautiful face. So, what follows is the result of multiple conversations I had with my friend Jade where she proceeded to tell me how to give earth- shattering head to your female partner. +First off and most importantly take your time. Ever heard the cliché ""speed kills"" well in this case it's true cause it's a buzz-kill. When you decide to take the drive down south, go slow. Stop at various overlooks and tourist attractions and take in the sights as you make the trip. A nibble here and a kiss there before you reach the holy land will help to heighten her arousal level and the anticipation of what's to come will kick in, in ways that are hard to appreciate as a guy. According to Jade, you know that you're going at the right pace when she starts pushing and pulling you in the direction of her magic playground. If/when that happens by the way you should still take your time because for her, frustration, is a ""force multiplier"" and ultimately will make her orgasm that much more intense. +Second and very close in importance to the speed with which you dole out your oral attention, is pressure. By pressure I mean how much pressure you apply with your teeth, lips, tongue, nose, chin and in a supporting role fingers. According to Jade most of us think that firmer pressure means more intensity and more pleasure as a result, which makes sense given that a good hand job or blow job for that matter is all about friction, the more the better. In her case, however it's important to vary your pressure from light as a feather to firm like pressing an elevator button depending on where you are and when you are. +So, the question you should have right now is ""WTF, how will I know what and where?"" and the answer according to Jade is simple. Start light and soft at each new location and get firmer over time. For example, the first time you get to her little pleasure button your touch should be light and delicate but after 10 minutes of licking and sucking on her slippery slit your pressure on her clit can be firm and deliberate. I say ""can"" because Jade made the comment that we should always vary our pressure from time to time and not get stuck in just one gear. +To recap at this point #1 Speed - the tortoise wins this race and #2 Pressure - light to firm and back again, and again. Next on Jade's agenda was for us to understand the importance of the different parts of her sexual anatomy. Now I won't insult you by introducing the parts she was talking about. I am positive that everyone reading this knows the difference between her vagina-or as I like to call it her musky cave of love-and her clitoris. And yes, I do have a pet name for it too but I'm not telling. +One thing to keep in mind regarding anatomy is that her erogenous zone(s) extend far out beyond just the fertile valley between her legs and a truly awesome session should include side trips down her inner thighs where light biting is strongly encouraged and perhaps if she's into it a trip all the way to her uber-sensitive feet is in order. That having been said however most of your attention will be lavished on the juicy bits like her labia (both inner and outer) her vagina, her clit (of course) and if you're feeling bold her anus. As you are undoubtedly aware the little pleasure button reigns supreme when it comes to driving her wild but don't make the mistake of focusing solely on it because you run the risk of over stimulating it and ruining it for her. The takeaway here is sometimes less is more especially when it comes to her clit. +Next on the hit list is what you do to those juicy little morsels and by that, I mean kissing, licking, sucking, nibbling, biting, rubbing, penetrating, stretching, and yes even slapping and pinching (note proceed with caution with those last two, they are for advanced practitioners only!). For example, her clit should be subjected to just about, if not all, of those actions at various points in time. In other words, don't just latch on to her clit and suck it like a baby's pacifier for 10 min straight. Suck it, sure, then flick it with the tip of your tongue in rapid succession, then kiss it, then suck it some more then lick it like a cat cleaning itself, then...(I think you get the picture). +The same goes for how you go after the other juicy bits. Change it up and vary that technique, hell, use that nose to rub her stiff little clitty while you probe the slippery slopes of her ""grand"" canyon with your tongue or fingers or better yet both. The more you move and change up and (remember point 1 here we're going at a measured pace too) vary your pressure, speed and technique the better...to a point. +And that point is when she's on the verge of coating your face with her 10w40 girly oil (i.e. she's about to cum you numbskull). According to Jade as she tenses up and nears the ""little death"" as the French call it (la petite mort) she prefers that the stimulation be focused solely on her stiff little princess by sucking on it almost like you were nursing on your mama's breast. For her it gets so intense that she'll try to push you off her little mound of joy but she said, and she was adamant about this, don't let her get away. +Specifically, she said that as the intensity rises, she can't help but push you away but by doing so she's actually denying herself the full onslaught of the orgasm, so her instructions are to grab hold, clamp on and be a man! Don't let some chick push you around, what are you some kind of pussy? Hang in there and keep that slow motion direct pressure thang going until... +Until when? Well until she really can't take it anymore of course (i.e. overload). Isn't that just like a woman? ""Fuck me like an animal! What an asshole you are. You always treat me like I'm some kind of an animal!"" Can't win for loosing I tell ya. Well I pushed back on this one for us all and got her to clarify it somewhat for me. +So as she tenses up and goes into orgasm her senses are over loading and she tries to stop us, but she's not really all the way gone yet so we have to suck it up (literally) and hang in there but once the wave crashes over her and for some brief period after she climaxes her nervous system is going haywire and continuing to lavish her tender parts (in particular her little speed bump) will only hasten her departure from the ""crazy zone"" so you have to back off and let her ride the crest. +How do you know when enough is enough? Well she offered this ""If I'm pressing my thumbs into your eye sockets and threatening to rip your eyes out that's a pretty good indicator that I'm over the top."" So, barring that rather gruesome predicament be aware of hostile intentions I guess, to determine when it's time to relax your grip on the now thoroughly ravaged young lady you are dining on. +Ok, to recap... +1\. Take your time. Remember that fucking tortoise dude. +2\. Vary the pressure of your contact. Light to firm and back again. +3\.

This includes underwear. Firstly, lay down on silk sheets (although any tidy and candle/low-lit bedroom will do). +Run your hands slowly down your sides until your fingers brush the waistline of your underwear. Gently slide your hands inside and slowly slide them down your long silky legs. Take extra care when Removing them from your ankles, ensuring you keep your legs together and sensually slide them over the top of your feet and let them fall to the floor. +Reach one hand behind your back and slowly unclasp your bra. Taking first one strap, then the other in your hands, remove the garment and place it to one side. +Starting from your shoulders, slowly run your hands down your body, feeling the fullness of your breasts, the softness of your stomach and the tantalising ache of your mound as your hand nears your clit. Make sure that the clit is not touched yet. +Carry on feeling the sides of your pussy and let your hands drift to the inside of your thighs, slowly caressing yourself. +While carrying out the above actions, one should be imagining a scene in which you are on your knees in front of a powerful, authorative man. This man is your master, and you want to please him above all others. +As you caress your body, keep the image of you submitting to this man in your mind. Hold on to the thrill that courses through you as you imagine him using you for his own purposes. +Slowly return your hands to the sides of your pussy, giving slow and light caresses to where your pussy and thighs meet. Draw a finger on each side all the way up from the crease of your buttocks, to the top of your pussy, just above the clit. Repeat this action through steps 6 and 7. Do not deviate regardless of how strong the urge becomes. +Imagine now that the man stands and moves closer to you. His crotch is tantalisingly close. Focus on the feeling of yearning you are experiencing. How you badly want to take him in your mouth and please him. How you want to be the release he craves. +But you also know that you dare not do this, as he hasn't given the command. You are his property and he gives the orders. That is the natural way and you are born to obey. +As you continue to stroke as set out above, take one hand and caress your nipples. After several strokes, take one nipple between two fingers and pinch sharply. You are to imagine this is the master that you serve. +In your mind, he has not spoken one word to you this whole time, but he is now feeling your flesh, his flesh, as he owns you. If anyone else were to maul you like this there would be outrage. Not with him though. It feels right. +As the vision of the strong, masculine man in front of you finally unties his trousers and presents his cock, you now have permission to slide a single finger deep into your pussy and rub your clit with the other hand. +As you edge yourself towards orgasm, you are to imagine that your master has disregarded all pretence of control and is rapidly fucking your throat. Your saliva is coating his thick, hard cock as it pistons in and out of your mouth. He has your hair roughly bunched in his fists as he focuses on nothing but filling you with his seed. +As your climax draws near, slide an extra finger or two into your silky, sticky pussy as you fuck yourself harder. In your mind, see the scene as your master ignores your chokes and cries as you struggle to breath around his throbbing cock. +When your orgasm hits and causes your legs to stiffen and your hips to thrust upwards off the bed as your toes curl, imagine your master has reached his orgasm at the same time. +He stiffens and holds you still on the base of his member, ignoring your sobs for air and choking attempts at breathing. You feel the first rope of cum hit the back of your throat and you reflexively swallow. He shoots several more times into your throat and you swallow each one. +After what seems like an eternity, he lets you go, you fall back, gasping for dear life. +As the master approaches you and strokes your cheek softly, you can't help but feel all is right with the world." +163,Divorce Laws & Your Writing,Legio_Patria_Nostra,How To,2021-03-06,2021-03-06,2022-01-04 08:27:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/divorce-laws-and-your-writing,And... What's Condonation (Hint: BTB & ANON gonna hate it!),"['Condonation', 'Divorce', 'Divorce Laws', 'Divorce Laws & Your Writing', 'Lawyer', 'Legal', 'Realism', 'The Details', 'Writing Skills']",4.36,"> ""Fiction must stick to facts, and the truer the facts the better the > fiction."" - Virginia Woolf +As the writer Ms. Woolf succinctly stated, fact-based fiction is good fiction. Otherwise, the reader must suspend disbelief, which negatively influences the reader's experience or, in some cases, chases away that reader altogether. +The other side of Ms. Woolf's coin is using the occasional flight of artistic license, the insertion of a purposeful anachronism or a slight alteration of a historical timeline for the overall sake of the work. The greatest writers have used these devices, from Shakespeare, to Poe to the master of historical authenticity, Patrick O'Brien. Simply put, fiction needs some help occasionally. But not too much, and hide it wherever possible. +But where do we draw the line on making a story as authentic as possible or letting it slide just a bit? That's up to you as a writer, but the ultimate judge will be the reader, unless you're writing commercially. Then, there will be an editor between you and your renumeration. Whoever the gatekeeper ultimately is, that person must be satisfied. To assist, we have the Internet, tailorable search-engines and vast archives stored on the web to an extent unimagined just 20-years ago! +How do divorce laws figure in Literotica writing? It depends on the context, of course, but in many stories, the divorce and legal machinations pursuant to that divorce, are a major plot driver and often serve as a major catalyst for character actions and reactions. It is a big deal to get it right. +Think about the many times we read, especially in Loving Wives, the tortured lament of the angry, aggrieved spouse, who we're sadly informed lives in a ""no-fault divorce"" state. There, regardless of facts or circumstances it is written, everything will be equally split with the evil spouse. Ergo, the spouse gets to cheat, lie, steal, swindle, cuckold, wear white before Easter, abuse her husband and embrace the designated-hitter, all without effect and without any justice this side of the pearly gates. Think of the vitriolic comments alone, this theme drives, not to mention the intense feelings within the angry reader. +One of the things about laws in general, but especially divorce, spousal support and community property laws, is they are a patchwork quilt spread across all fifty states. These varied and manifold different laws are also universally influenced by rulings in Federal Courts and by the United States Supreme Court. On the upside, this uncertain tapestry of laws and judicial rulings gives you a choice as a writer, especially if the divorce action is a major part of your work. You can easily search the web for a state with particularly nasty, strange or archaic law which can be a major force in your plot. +Another example of educating yourself on divorce law concerns military pensions as community property. They generally are, unless it's a military disability pension, which cannot be attached as community property. Thank Mansell v. Mansell, 490 US 581 (1989) for that, but I've read with great sadness on Literotica that some cruel, BTB-deserving spouse took half of her suffering spouse's VA disability pension just before consigning him to room with either the Tidy-Bowl Man, or Mr. Hankie; I forget which. +\---------- +How about those ""no-fault divorce"" states? +For instance, Texas offers a ""no-fault"" divorce option, but the law, as written, makes this option exactly that, an option, and it must be agreed to by both parties. In lieu of a mutually-agreeable ""no-fault"" dissolution, a spouse may still file for divorce based on several specific ""faults"", including adultery. +In an adultery filing, the circumstances surrounding provable adulterous behavior may carry great weight when the court considers the division of property. Much of the outcome will be determined by the judge as he or she weights the facts and evidence. Furthermore, unlike some authors presume -- me included -- proving adultery in Texas doesn't require video or other forensic evidence. Actionable evidence includes eye-witness statements, video and/or photographs, love letters, emails, voicemails, Internet chat history, social media, hotel and/or travel records, and gift receipts/bills. Even absent the aforementioned, good, strong circumstantial evidence may be considered by the court. +Even alimony rules in Texas are different than in some states. It's not an ""automatic"" thing as some Literotica authors presume. There are clear stipulations and requirements. Check your state's laws, and you might be surprised at some of conditions beyond what you might assume. +Furthermore, Texas does not recognize a ""Legal Separation""; you are married until the marriage is legally dissolved. So, a revenge-fuck on your spouse, even after separation, is adultery on your part, and is actionable by your spouse in court. All debts, income and other things that apply in a marriage continue, even though the parties are no together. No ""free pass for adultery"" as some writers have suggested, or as far as Texas is concerned. +The legal concept 'Condonation' is part of Texas divorce laws, as it is in many states and other nations. It Texas, Condonation is a defense against a suit for divorce, but only if the court finds that there is a reasonable expectation of reconciliation. On its face, Condonation is a simple concept, but its implications and influence on court proceedings can become quite complex and are often subject to the court's interpretation. +\---------- +What is ""Condonation""? +In a marriage, 'Condonation' is when the innocent spouse voluntarily pardons an offense committed by his/her partner on the conditional promise that the offense will not recur. +Public policy strongly supports Condonation used as a defense in Divorce actions that are based on fault grounds. Being that preservation of the institution of marriage is considered essential for the overall good and continuing stability of society, Condonation is encouraged. This reinforces and promotes the desire that marriages should only be dissolved after much deliberate consideration. +Condonation requirements are twofold: (1.) The resumption of normal marital relations (i.e. sexual intercourse) after knowledge of the offense or offenses and (2.) The promise that the offense will not be repeated. Cases often seek to discern whether or not a legally-valid Condonation has taken place. +In the example where a wife commits adultery, and after discovering this, her husband allows her to return to the home, but he does not resume normal marital relations with her, it is judged that a full Condonation did not take place. The issue of whether a 'marital relationship' has been completely resumed is almost always considered to be a Question of Fact in divorce cases. +When the court considers support or maintenance obligations, the question of whether or not Condonation has taken place is vital. This is critical, because in many states, remedies for nonsupport will be granted only when it's shown the husband has been committed a serious marital offense. However, if this husband can prove Condonation, he can use this as a defense against the wife's claim of non-support. +Also, Condonation carries consequences in the formulation of the actual grounds for divorce. If, for example, man has beaten his wife on several occasions, but she continued to cohabit with him, the wife may later be unable to use the grounds of cruel and inhuman treatment to sue for divorce. On the other hand, the ongoing and continuous nature of offenses, such as mental cruelty, may not be eliminated by demonstrating a state of Condonation. +Used skillfully in your writing, a couple's attempt at achieving Condonation can be a powerful plot device. Imagine the possibilities, where the cheating spouse tries to assure the resumption of 'normal marital relations' and the injured spouse resists! +\---------- +Your state divorce laws are likely different that those in Texas, but there will also be vast similarities. In those differences is where your challenge as a writer lies. The best source is the Internet; trial lawyers across America make searching for this information simple, fast and easy. A pro-tip is to search your state's Family Law Code, which is a goldmine of specifics. Texas' Family Code can be downloaded in PDF and searched using the Cntrl+F search function. +In summation, as little as five minutes researching the divorce laws in your state can enable your characters to be thinking, acting and talking their way through a divorce action in your applicable jurisdiction. Of course, if you choose to locate your work in the mythical ""AnyStateUSA"", the laws are what you make them, within reason, of course.

Keeping them in top-notch shape will give him harder erections, more sex drive, higher amounts of ejaculation and enhanced orgasms. The key to proper testicle function and health is better blood circulation to the testicles. This article explains how to increase a higher-level blood circulation to his testicles to promote all round better function and health. An added side benefit to the ideas discussed below is intense orgasms on his part. My wife created this little routine (which I love) and I thought I would share it with you all. +Step 1: Setting the Stage +Shaving the genitals of men can be just as exciting and pleasurable as it is for women. Men who shave their cock and balls say their sensitivity is increased immensely. Their partners also don't miss the hair-in-the-mouth experience when performing oral sex. Shaved men's genitals are also easier to ""control"" when administering genital massage or other advanced forms of sexual play. +Shaving the male genitals is about as easy as it gets. All you need is a little water and soap (or shaving cream) and you're off to the races. Any double or triple edge razor used for facial shaving should suffice for the genitals. Some care must be taken to not nip and cut skin as you proceed. The man can do this to himself in the shower or leave the pleasure to his partner. +Step 2: The Warm Up +Before doing anything further, apply a nice hot wrap to his testicles or warm them up with a hair dryer for 3-5 minutes. This will make them warm and the skin more pliable to stretch and massage. After the warm up is complete, apply a healthy dousing of baby oil into your palms and really work it into his testicles skin, covering all viable area with baby oil. Make sure the oil is really rubbed in to the skin. +Begin to massage all surrounding areas of his testicles, but not the testicles directly. Massage in between the testicles with a pumping motion using your thumb and fingers. Massage at the base, pulling down as you massage. Do this for about 3 minutes. Then take your hands with your fingers spread apart and grip his testicles at the root and lightly pull them down, bring them back up, them pull them down again, over and over for about 3 minutes. +Lightly apply pressure to his testicles as you continue, massaging and stroking his penis as well while doing so. Massage all around them, working your way around both of his testicles constantly changing your pattern. Continue to repeat all of these steps over and over again. Another good stretching method is grasp around the base of his testicles with your thumb and forefinger and squeeze until his testicles are tight together on top of your thumb and forefinger. Take the other hand and apply a small amount of pressure on top of the testicles and massage them in a circular motion. While you are doing this, pull down lightly of the hand grabbing the base of his testicles connecting flesh. Do this for about 3-5 minutes without stopping. +After these massaging exercises, his testicles should be stretched out and appear to be hanging lower than normal, as well as appear to be larger. This is due to the increased blood circulated into his testicles from performing the above exercises. Another good tip to promote increased blood circulation to his testicles while performing these exercises is to heat the bottle of baby oil for several minutes in a sink of hot water before applying. This heat will increase the blood flow as well as absorb into the flesh quicker, enabling a better, more efficient workout. +Step 3: The Edge +The third part of the exercise is called edging. It's a more intense form of cock and ball massage whose goal is to get as close to orgasm as possible without really going over the edge...thus the term edging. Each time you do this additional seminal fluid is release into the scrotum, which eventually become very full and the desire to orgasm becomes more intense. By creating this additional fluid once orgasm is actually achieved, a larger amount of ejaculate is release, which cleans out the male reproductive system very effectively. And the orgasm is usually very intense. +You achieve this by going to the edge...over and over. Run your oily hands all around his penis and balls gradually building to an orgasm. The closer he gets to cumming the slower you go and decrease the pressure. After about ten minutes of this he should be right at the edge. The trick is to keep him just below cumming but at the same time giving enough stimulation that the excitement level does not decrease appreciably. It's a delicate balancing act. +The resultant intensity of pleasure can be close to that felt in a full ejaculatory orgasm but potentially unending. Furthermore, the associated sexual organs exercise, and the learned ability to better control those organs mentally, will greatly increased the scope and persuasiveness of his sexual pleasure. Feelings of pleasure are augmented by greater loin vasocongestion, and sexual organ fluid fullness and readiness. And unlike ejaculatory contractions, that feeling can last continuously, sustained for minutes on end, revivable in seconds if the attention flags. It really is a near- continuous, mind-blowing delicious orgasm! And every approach to ejaculation increases the amount of fluid held in the ampulla, with an associated increase in pleasure and passion of sexual readiness. +Another trick you might use when you finally get him to the edge point is this. You can really increase his excitement by taking each ball even more gently with all five fingertips evenly spaced around each testicle, and very gently massaging them, as if rolling an egg back and forth. No matter how desperate he is to cum, stimulating just his balls will usually not put him over, but it sure intensifies the feeling! +Step 4: The ""Coup de grace"" +And last but not least, if you really want to be devious and drive him crazy, you can try this little trick. Once you have brought him to the edge a sufficient number of times, and you can tell his balls are getting really full, you can take a piece of rope or a shoestring and wrap it around the base of his testicles. You may have to warm his balls up again to make them hang low so you'll have something to tie up. Making sure that it is snug/tight, but not pinching skin; continue to wrap it around and around until you have about 3 inches on either end remaining. Don't be afraid to give it a few good tugs to make sure the strands aren't loose. This won't hurt him, trust me. The goal of this phase is to separate the testicles from the body, making them unable to retreat back inside the torso. This also makes the skin tighter along the shaft of his penis, making it stand out more, as well as making it more sensitive. This also applies to his balls. There's no way they are going to escape her devious manipulations now! Starting to make sense? Finish up the process by tying the two loose ends together and viola'! With his testicles now being the center of your (and his!) universe, you now have his full attention in whatever you want to do to him. Now it is time to have some real fun! +Granted you could have tied off his balls at the very beginning of the massage and the choice is yours to make. In either case you will notice that his sensitivity has almost doubled once you begin your massage again. You can bring him to the edge again a few times if you wish but the primary objective of this phase is to give him an intense massage. The string around his balls will allow ALL of your touches to be amplified. Thus you should concentrate on his balls. You'll be surprised at the higher levels of moaning and body twitching that will occur when you massage him in this state. You could even tie him down to get complete control over him if he'll agree to it. Think you can tease him enough to get him to beg to cum? Once you decide to finish him off, don't be timid in giving his balls a good squeeze during ejaculation. You'll be surprised how intense his orgasm is, as will he. Rest assured he will thank you when it's over." +165,Does Sex Really Hurt Or Is That Just An Excuse?,Tigger_Lilly,How To,2019-08-07,2019-08-07,2022-01-04 08:27:51,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/does-sex-really-hurt-or-is-that-jus,"My vagina is closed for business, I have great sex.

More fun with bad poetry.,"['Bad Verse', 'Doggerel', 'Humor', 'Poetry How-To', 'Writing Advice']",3.44,"Like most, maybe all, of the authors on Literotica, I write to amuse myself and others, I hope. Mostly, what I write are dirty stories, or smut, with no pretensions that it's any more than that. I do not expect to ever be nominated for a Nobel Prize in Literature. Besides the dirty stories, I also write poetry, and I have no pretensions about that, either. Most of what I write, although not all, are jokes, dirty or otherwise, told in verse. All of those are what is usually called doggerel, which my dictionary defines as bad verse. Bad verse or not, there is a right way and a wrong way to write it. Or, maybe that's a wrong way and a more wrong way. +Anyhow, whatever way you describe writing it, doggerel has to rhyme. If you write in blank verse or haiku, it just sounds like a silly paragraph, which is okay, but it's not any kind of verse, and therefore not doggerel. It doesn't really have to scan, which means having the same number of syllables in corresponding lines, and having the same syllables accented. It doesn't have to scan, but it's better, or less bad, if it does, at least most of the time. +You may have heard poets or professors of literature or dedicated fans using mysterious words like ""heptameter"" or ""pentameter"" or other combinations, usually preceded by the equally mysterious word ""iambic"". If these seem confusing to you, don't feel bad about it or think you're stupid, because they are confusing. +An iamb, which rhymes with ""my lamb"" is a foot. That's not something you kick with, and it's not twelve inches, but it is a unit of measure. More precisely, it is one unstressed, or unaccented syllable, which is followed by a stressed one. The word, ""before"" appearing in a poem would be one iamb. The word ""after"" would not be, because the accent is on the first syllable, although it might very well be parts of two successive iambs. There are other kinds of feet, by the way, but iambic is the most common, and I'm not going to get very much into the others. This is ""Doggerel for Dummies"", you know, not ""Doggerel for English Majors"". +""Heptameter"", of course, means just what it looks like – seven meters, or seven units of measure. So, if a poem is in iambic heptameter, it means that each line in a couplet, or pair of rhyming lines, has 14 syllables, and every second one is accented. A poem in iambic pentameter will have ten syllables in each line in a couplet, with every second one being accented. You can, presumably, have a poem written in iambic quadrameter or hexameter, or anything you want, and some famous poems have been written in those meters although, for some reason, the expressions are rarely used. +I referred to a couplet as being two lines. Sometimes a poet may decide to write a stanza, or verse, of a poem as four lines, with the last words of the second and fourth lines rhyming. The stanza still consists of a couplet, but both lines of the couplet are divided into two parts. If you choose to do this, by the way, the first and third lines should be equal in length and accented the same, as should the second and fourth lines. +Here is the first verse of a poem that I wrote a few years ago in iambic heptameter. The name is ""Crap Shooting Blonde"" and, it is a good example of doggerel, because it is a joke told as a poem. If you want to see the punch line, you can go to my index and find it. The accented syllables are capitalized. +The BLONDE in THE caSIno, WORE her COAT down TO her KNEES. She WALKED up TO the TAble AND she SAID, ""ExCUSE me, PLEASE. i WANT to SHOOT some CRAPS here AND i WANT to BET the MAX."" And PLACED her MOney ON the LINE that SAID that SHE would PASS. +A discerning eye may observe that the last words in the third and fourth lines, or second couplet, don't actually rhyme, but don't worry about that. They are certainly close enough for doggerel. +""Close enough for doggerel"" is an important concept to keep in mind. Remember, you are writing for fun, and if the meter isn't perfect, don't worry about it. In fact, you would be in very good company. Some very famous poems by some very famous poets are not in perfect meter. +Of course, doggerel doesn't have to be in iambic meter. Limericks are doggerel, almost by definition, and they are almost always in some other meter. To be properly done, if there is such a thing when we're talking about doggerel, the first, second and fifth lines have to have the same number of syllables and they have to be accented the same. The last word of each of those three lines has to rhyme. The third and fourth lines have to match the same way. You don't always have to worry too much about the rhyming part, because some of the best limericks deliberately don't rhyme. Once again, I will use one of mine as an example. I am using my own stuff because I like people to read it and I don't want to run afoul of any copyright laws. +a WOman from EAST Saint MorITZ Was BLESSED with specTACular TITS. She WORE a biKIni, InCREdibly TEEny And DROVE the men OUT of their WITS. +I mentioned early that doggerel, even in an iambic meter, doesn't have to be in perfect meter, as long as the writer was satisfied with it. However, that is not an excuse to write a poem with a couplet like this: +I opened the door And went in and found something that wasn't there before. +Doggerel is bad verse, not incredibly awful verse. If you are going to write it, you should have some sympathy for those who might read it. Ogden Nash did quite well writing poetry somewhat along the same line, but not as bad, and it often included clever puns. And remember, you're not Ogden Nash. +Poetry has some fairly strict rules but, if you are writing doggerel, you can break them with impunity. However, some verses are better, or less bad, than others. If you are going to write bad verse, especially if you think others might read it, you really should make it the least bad that you can. As long as the lines in couplets have approximately the same number of syllables, and the accents and rhymes are good enough, go for it. Here is the first stanza from some more bad verse that I wrote. The name is ""Her Best Feature"" and it is 100% doggerel because, like the first one, it tells a joke in a poem. If you want to see the punch line, you will have to go to my index or some such place. +a YOUNG man was MOving inTO an aPARTment and ON down the HALLway he STRODE. a WOman was STANDing aLONE by a DOORway; her BOdy was WRAPPED in a ROBE. They STARTed conVERsing; she SPREAD her arms Open, the ROBE opened UP in the FRONT The YOUNG man was TREATed to VIEWS of her TITties and OF her magNIficent CUNT. +When I'm in the process of writing something like this, I don't capitalize the accented syllables. That would require too much concentration. I write the lines and read them to myself, while making marks like these under each verse of the draft I'm working on: +xXxxXxxXxxXxxXxxXxxX xXxxXxxXxxXxxXxxXxxX xXxxXxxXxxXxxXxxXxxX xXxxXxxXxxXxxXxxXxxX +When I do this, I can see that every line has the same number of syllables and is accented the same. If I have to change some words to make them fit, I do so. +I don't know what kind of meter this would be called, if it even has a name. It's not iambic, because the second syllable of each line is accented and, after that, every third one. For all I know, or care, I may have invented a new form of poetry. +That's one of the fun things about doggerel. Now, go see what you can invent. + +" +167,Doing the PWP One-shot,MorganHawke,How To,2011-01-31,2011-01-31,2022-01-04 08:27:54,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/doing-the-pwp-one-shot,The Quick & Dirty way to write a Porn Without Plot One-shot.,"['Pwp', 'Tip', 'Tutorial', 'Writing', 'Writing Sex', 'Writing Tips']",4.47,"""...doing a big long multi-chaptered story intimidates the hell out of me.

I think a lot of it still applies as a brief overview for trying out some D/s bedroom fun as part of an existing relationship. This is not for those who are negotiating scenes or playtime with new acquaintances. This also does not address D/s as a lifestyle. I have also published another How-to specifically on sensual dominance, which you might find helpful too.** +***** + **Before You Start** +First you need to determine if he's interested in being dominated. Chances are you're reading this for one of two reasons: either he's already indicated he is interested, or you're interested and aren't sure he is. Well if you already know he wants to be dominated, mission accomplished. If you don't know, the easiest way is to ask him. Well, perhaps it's not the easiest for you, but it's definitely the most direct. +An important thing to find out before you start is what are he likes besides just being dominated. There are so many different definitions of domination and so many related fetishes. A few related fetishes may include feet, anal (giving or receiving, fingering, licking or fucking), spanking, bondage, leather, humiliation, cross-dressing, etc. Some men want to be punished physically while others want to be punished emotionally. Some just want to serve a woman and rewarded when they do it right. Some want to really be hurt while some only want the illusion. Finding out his particular pleasure (and yours!) is very important so everyone enjoys the adventure. After all, the whole point of domination is to fulfill fantasies and pleasures. +Don't judge his fetishes, just determine which ones you want to include. Everyone has limits, so find yours. And find his. You want to cause pleasure, not panic. The best way to do this is to ask him. The idea of asking him may be frightening, somewhat awkward, and embarrassing. However, some of the things you will be doing require an amazing amount of trust. If you can't talk to him, you aren't ready for that level of trust. Just think of it as one of the sexiest conversations you've ever had. Honestly, if he has fantasies of being bound, asking him details about how to tie him will do nothing but make him focus on his fantasy. Odds are he'll thank you for it a hundred times over. +Domination is partially about physical power and partially about the perception of being overpowered. The illusion of being completely helpless is a major key to why domination is so sexy. He'll never be truly helpless because of the safety word (see the next paragraph for an explanation), but it's your job to feed the illusion. It's part of the game. +The last issue of preparation is the most important: safety. This isn't the safe sex discussion. Chances are you've heard that lecure a hundred times over. (If you haven't, look elsewhere for the mechanics of safe sex.) This safety issue is about the safety word. Pick a word that will never be mentioned as part of the hot, sweaty, dominating fun. In other words, don't pick ""no"" or ""stop"" or ""you're hurting me"". Those might be said to make the game more realistic. Pick something completely off-the-wall like the make of your car, your favorite musician, or ""Constantinople."" Just make sure it is something that can't be confused with anything else except the desire to stop everything that's happening. Here is where trust plays a crucial role. You must trust him enough to say the word when he needs to, and he must trust you enough that you'll stop when he says the word. No matter what, everyone must stop when that word is spoken because someone isn't comfortable. Discuss why the word was spoken. Just because he was uncomfortable with one thing doesn't mean he won't want to try twenty others. It doesn't mean to stop dominating him altogether. + **Domination....Begin** +First of all, relax. Chances are he's not an expert at this either. He'll be excited enough that you're trying and willing, so you don't need to be an expert. Remember that it's a game. It's just a temporary, role-playing game that's supposed to be fun and sexy. Afraid you'll laugh or won't be able to pull it off? Just remember two things: 1. It's role-playing, which means you literally play a role. You can act like a dominatrix just like acting in a play. You get to be someone else, so play it up! 2. He wants you to do this for his pleasure. You're fulfilling a fantasy for him, which is one of the sexiest, most intimate things partners can do for each other. It won't be so funny once you see the fire in his eyes. +Most men also love to hear a woman talk while being dominated. You can start small with whispers about how he isn't allowed to move....how he isn't allowed to touch you....how he can do nothing but wait for you to touch him. It's will get his mind racing even more. + **Clothing** +This is essential. Generally, men are visual creatures. This can really work to your advantage in the domination world. When men imagine being dominated, they almost always imagine the outfit. If he hasn't told you his favorite dominatrix clothing, don't worry. The basics are pretty standard, and you can always get suggestions from a friend or the internet. Think dark colors, a little slutty, and lots of texture. +Dark colors imply a harshness that is essential to the domination illusion. It's hard to appear forceful in pale yellow. Red, royal blue, silver, and dark purple work well. But the most popular by far is black. You can also mix and match black with any other dark color. The most important thing is to wear something that makes you feel absolutely sexy. It's hard to be a sex goddess if you're worried how your thighs look. Dark and dramatic are essential in making you a sexy dominatrix. +You should also show some skin. Men love the visual, remember? Well go ahead and show it to him. Don't worry about your non-model body. Remember, he's submitting to you because he wants to. Because he thinks you're sexy. Because he wants to see your body taking control of his. He's going to love seeing your bare arms, your thong, your short skirt, your bare midriff....whatever you decide. Think of it as more bare skin you get to rub against him. +Clothing textures are important as well. Some of the more popular textures in domination are leather, latex, silk, satin, lace, and metal. Mixing them can be very fun. Leather boots coupled with satin panties and a latex top....each one is a different thrill when it slides against his skin, lips, tongue, etc. Your textures don't have to match, they just have to provoke amazing sensations. +Lastly, don't forget his fetishes. If he has a foot fetish, spend some time (and perhaps a little money) picking out some dynamite shoes. If he has an anal fetish, wear something that shows off your ass. If he has a spanking fetish, wear sparkly rings and paint your nails a gorgeous red. Be sure to focus on his fetish to flood his brain with his own desire. + **The Rest** +Each man who wants to be dominated is different. The best piece of advice is to pay attention to his reactions. Not only is it arousing to watch a man get excited, but it will tell you what he likes and what you can do next. +For example, let's say you have his arms pinned down while straddling him. If he's straining to kiss you, take notice: he wants to kiss you. So what's sexy and dominating? Making him wait for it. Tell him he can't kiss you yet. Then to prove your power and test his obedience, lean down so close until he can feel your breath on his lips. You can even touch your tongue to each corner of his mouth. Anything to make him even crazier to kiss you. Make him wait. If he moves to kiss you, pull away. If he disobeys, punish him how you see fit. Assert your power! Listen to the way his breath hitches, the way he strains at your arms holding him down, the little whimper in the back of his throat. It's sexy as hell and shows you how much he loves it. And when you finally let him kiss you, it's the kiss of a starving man. +As another example, let's say he loves giving oral sex (lucky girl). Straddle him just above his face and finger yourself. He can't touch you, can't do anything but watch you, smell you, and feel your heat. (Plus this isn't all bad for you. You're touching yourself exactly the way you want.) Make him beg if you want because you're in charge. Then when you're ready, let him lick you to his heart's content. And yours. He thinks you're rewarding him, but if he licks you to kingdom come, who's really rewarded? +Now you get to learn the biggest benefit of dominating your man. Besides being the best girlfriend/lover ever for giving him fantasies, you're also feeling sexier than ever. Everything's hotter and more intimate. But here's the icing on the cake: it's the easiest way to teach him exactly how to please you. Wonder how? Well, the majority of men who like being dominated also like to be told what to do. They find it extremely sexy to touch you when and how you say. +So let's say you'd like him to rub your clit more before sliding his fingers inside you. Well as his dominatrix, you can lay spread-eagle, put him on his knees between your legs, and instruct him exactly what to do and when. Don't make it a how-to. Make demands. Remember, ""making"" him do it and controlling every action is exactly what he finds sexy. So tell him things like, ""You can touch me right here. I will let you stroke me on the outside from bottom to top, slowly. If you don't do it slow enough, you won't get to do it again."" He's in heaven because he gets to touch you, and he's getting dominated. You're in heaven because you're getting exactly what you want. When you're the dominatrix, phrase anything the right way (you are allowed to....I will let you....you must....do....now....) and you both get what you want. Find the words that make your man crazy with passion, and you can teach him anything you want. You come hard enough, and he'll remember what he did so he can do it again. +Much of domination is teasing. Denying him the exact thing he wants until he can barely stand it is an extremely erotic way to dominate a man. Just remember, it's not technically teasing because you actually reward him. (Which means please don't actually tease him. That's just mean.) This kind of teasing is just prolonging the pleasure to make it stronger. Remember, it's about sensation, intimacy, and the illusion of power." +169,Dominology,IvanMazlow,How To,2015-02-16,2015-02-28,2022-01-04 08:27:56,6,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/dominology-101-be-yourself,1.

It's always been the case in BDSM circles that those who lean towards submissive tendencies have been the ones who really put in the effort of creating and holding together the communities. Dominants tend to be more aloof. It's a truism, sure, and of course there are exceptions. All you need to do in order to notice these trends is look at the blogs and message boards. The vast majority are managed by submissives. When you do see a dominant commenting you really can't help but get the feeling that either a submissive is putting him up to it, or maybe he's fishing around to find one. +For whatever reason, it just seems to be something in our natures. I remember debating the possible reasons for this tendency going back well over a decade, and it hasn't changed. Whatever the cause, it's always been a lot easier to find insights from a submissive's perspective than from a dominant's. +Now, I won't be the first to observe that this is inconvenient. Being a new dominant has as many if not more challenges compared to being a submissive. And on top of that, well, you know, a dominant is supposed to be in charge. He kinda needs to have an idea of what he's doing, doesn't he? There's a little bit of pressure involved here. +So one of the things that I really wanted to do, in addition to the broader, more systematic 'how-to' methodology, was to address this. That's what these articles will be aimed at. Think of them as a bit of a grab bag of personal messages to my fellow dominants. These will be addressed specifically at their concerns, and in them I'll include ideas, reflections, tips, tricks; just a miscellany of things that I wish someone had suggested to me before several years of trial and error and finding my way out of pitfalls caused them to suggest themselves. +And in addition to sort of being a clearing house for all the various bits of advice that I'm too lazy to fit into the more structured methodology of the 'how-to', I want to offer something that I think is all too lacking for dominants. That is quite simply encouragement. Starting out and practicing as a dominant is a daunting thing, and in a way the more responsible and informed about it you are the more stressful it can be. +With all this in mind, I'd like to get to my first piece of advice to my fellows. It's probably going to sound a bit lame to many, like I'm being a bit Hallmark card feel-good. But the truth is it's the most solid advice I can give and sort of at the core of where I see the most dominants screw up. +That advice is simply be yourself. Never, ever, feel pressured to behave in a way that you don't feel inclined to. Never try to 'learn to be dominant' by emulating anyone else. +Learning to be a good dominant is like a craft that every single practitioner has to reinvent for themselves. Another can try to give pointers in developing that craft. But in the end, that can only really provide inspiration to help you draw this capacity from your own self. When done properly, this can be a very personal, esoteric thing, full of introspection, soul searching, and personal development and evolution. +It's natural, when we start any endeavor, enter any social group or activity, that we tend to model our behavior on the things that we've seen other people do that attracted us to it in the first place. We pick out 'Master Joe' and want to be like him and so deeply crave a relationship like he has with his submissives. All too often I see more 'experienced' member of the lifestyle tripping over themselves to validate themselves by persuading newcomers that 'This is how you do it,' and 'This is how a true submissive acts' or 'My kung- fu is best'. And, especially when you're learning from experienced people or in a group (which is in many ways ideal) to an extent, you have no choice but to begin by experimenting with their protocols and ways of doing things. +But it's important to keep in mind that these are just that; your initial experiments and experiences, and those protocols are like training wheels. You're supposed to grow out of them. Maybe the ways you find for yourself over time will look a lot like those, or maybe they'll be totally different. That doesn't matter. The measure of success of a mentor in BDSM is not how closely his protégées mimic his methods. It's how healthy and happy and how positive the effects of his protégées' practices look when they become experienced, themselves. +Another aspect of this is especially true of people who don't have mentors, who are self taught. They generally form their ideas, maybe through some conversation, but largely through reading BDSM stories or watching videos. The problem with that is that the people who make stories and videos for any topic tend to want those to be exciting and gravitate towards more extreme or intense events and activities. And that's exactly the opposite of how you want to start the practice. +Let me make this perfectly clear: there is only one measure of how well you're doing as a dominant, and that is how positively it's impacting you and your submissive, and the quality of the intimacy that is resulting. It has nothing to do with how extreme you can be or how cool you can look or how far you can push a submissive to behave. In fact the best dominants can accomplish more with a look or well chosen words than they could with handcuffs or floggers. +The end result of any D/s oriented activity or session should be deepened intimacy between the participants. That is the only measure of success. Everything else is window dressing. +And that's why this advice is so important. When you're starting out with a submissive, no matter how experienced either of you are, you figure where and how to begin by weighing two things: your nature and hers. You are basing this on you, not whatever videos you found hottest or how 'Master Joe says slaves should act' or 'How true dominants act'. +That is quite tricky to do starting out, until experience slowly builds for you a sense of context and proportion. So, how do you do it? +You start slow. Very slow. Never underestimate the potency of small, simple acts or gestures. Instead of imagining the most extreme ways to act out upon an urge or feeling, think about the smallest and easiest. It will be easier to observe the effects of those acts on you and your partner that way, as well, when you aren't tripping over each other to get as far outside your comfort zones as possible. +If you're experimenting with impact play, start with a little bit of sting and see what happens. If you're working with bondage, see what having her wrists held for a moment does rather than trying to squeeze her into some manacles. If you're playing with exposure try hiking her skirt a bit instead of trying to strip her naked. If you're working with obedience, direct the conversation and have her respond to your questions rather than trying to make her get on her knees. Brush at boundaries with a feather rather than stomping all over them like you see in the stories. +And while you're doing these things, you're not just observing the effects on the submissive, but on yourself. You're learning yourself; what you like and are comfortable with. Believe me, a submissive will respond to a little thing that you know you want far more potently than she will to some grandiose act you think you ought to want. + +" +170,Dos and Don'ts,katniss93,How To,2012-01-16,2012-01-16,2022-01-04 08:28:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/dos-and-donts,Shoulds and shouldn'ts of sex in relationships.,"['Help', 'Love', 'New', 'Orgasm', 'Passion', 'Romance', 'Special', 'Trying']",4.34,"My fiancee and I have been having crazy sex for the last year and a half. On our fist date he was really nervous and jokingly asked for me to come over to his place. Knowing he was nervous I thought it was the perfect opportunity to make my move. I told him yes and he was surprised and unsure of what to do. Later he told me about how he really didn't expect me to say yes so soon. But it turned me on that he hadn't had a lot of sex before me and it made him all the more exciting. I was nervous too because it was the first time I had sex at someone's place that wasn't their parents ( I was a junior in high school). The excitement for both of us was really high, I showed it less than he did. He was breathing really heavy and slightly clumsy. But it just made me feel good being in control for once. He gave me something I never had before. A night to enjoy myself during sex. He was the only one that ever made me orgasm. All the other guys I had dated were total d-bags and were done in less than 10 minutes. Between us, it lasted all night. I couldn't walk the next morning because I'd never used so many muscles for love making before. It was the first time I had ever felt truly one with someone. But later in our relationship we never got that excitement back and after about 6 months I became incredibly sexually dissatisfied. He used to be able to make me orgasm at least 2 times a week and after about the 6 month mark it just sort of stopped. Sex was never the incentive for our relationship but it was still very important to us. +What happened after 6 months? I started using toys and it became hard for my fiancee to pleasure me. So he gave up and I started getting angry at him for not pleasuring me after sex. When I didn't come I was upset and took it out on him. And then I started rejecting sex and becoming moody. Now I'm still working things out between me and him. But its caused a lot more trouble than either of us had imagined. Lately I've been staying up trying to figure out whats wrong with me and what I can do to fix the problems I create. +All relationships are different. Couples can have as much sex as twice a month or twice a day. But I'm writing this to share things that I have discovered in my relationship as well as things I've learned online and from many books. I would like to share these things so that if anyone has any of these problems can know that they aren't the only ones and that there are things to do to fix sex problems in relationships. +Things that you should DO in a relationship: +1) BE ROMANTIC: there will be some women who say they don't like romance and like things dirty. That's fine. To each their own. But that doesn't mean romance has to be taken out of the equation. All women love romance. And for women reading this, all men love knowing that they are being thought of; whether sexually or romantically. Love notes can be a cute and lovely way of sharing intimate thoughts. I love writing and receiving love notes because it shows that my fiancee and I aren't just focusing on sex together or responsibilities apart. And don't feel that anything you write will be corny. What you call corny are usually things that your significant other find sweet and wonderful. Its okay to sound corny just don't sound CHEAP. Don't use cards that have things already written in them unless you write something special in it. +Whatever you do or get, make it thoughtful. Women go crazy when they come home to a romantic setting, dinner, dim lights, etc...So one important thing when trying to be romantic is that you don't have to go all out. Sometimes the simplest things can be the most heartfelt. +Another thing about romance is if the other person isn't in the mood sexually don't make them feel as though you did everything for them so you could get laid. For example say your sweet heart comes home and you have the romantic dinner set up and all you can think about is how much he/she is going to enjoy a long passionate night of hard core love making after dinner. But they tell you they had a very bad day ( at work, between friends, anything that they would feel distressed over) and it kind of kills the mood. Be prepared to go to bed early. Focus on the night at hand and just use it as a tool to show you care and support them. ROMANCE ISN'T JUST ABOUT HAVING SEX. Its about sharing love and intimacy in a wonderful way in a place that's away from the rest of the world. But in the case that Romance does lead to sex I move on to another thing to do. +2) SMELL THE FLOWERS. Take your time. Have a setting that takes both of you away from the normal and gives you freedom to shake off the rest of the world. To be yourself. Men and women can't enjoy sex while still feeling the pressures of the outside world and having the feeling of impending doom hanging over their heads. That's why its good to just relax and take time to notice whats in front of you. Forget about that job interview tomorrow or how your presentations going to go. Just focus on the beautiful person before you, who you want to please and love on. And if it is a week day and you have to get up early don't be so quick to finish that you haven't fully enjoyed your partner. +It doesn't take hours to get the most out of your night, although if your both enjoying then there shouldn't be anything to stop you. I mean, if your going to wake up late wouldn't you rather be it over making sweet passionate love or having stayed up late worrying about whatever you have to deal with the next day. Also, sex helps you sleep, its doing something that drains your energy and makes you feel satisfied, if enjoyed properly. +3) HAVE FUN. Don't make yourself feel that pleasuring the other person is another responsibility. You have all day to do your duties as wife, girlfriend, husband, head of household, caregiver, provider, boyfriend, whatever it is you have to live your life as throughout your week. You have to put up a front all day long and so does your significant other for the days hard challenges, shouldn't you both be free to just let loose? What do I mean by fun exactly? Well, what do you find fun? Sharing laughs, wrestling around, teasing, playing games. Whatever it may be, just show you enjoy the other person and what you two are sharing. Show that its not another responsibility or duty or even routine. Its a get away, its a mini vacation, its rehab. It helps you live together in harmony. It should be joyful and uplifting. And if you feel more passionate than playful that's fine. Smile a little. At least let them know that this is an entirely separate world you share together and it means a lot. Maybe even live out a couple fantasies. But before you do look at the next thing on this list. +4) TALK. I can't make this clear enough. If you do not communicate sex is just a pass time. Its just a game to play before you go to sleep Whenever you have sex you are sharing something special. And it should feel special, sacred even. If you or your partner are feeling uncomfortable with anything its not just gonna go away by being pleasured. My fiancee and I used to have so much sex that I would get bladder infections ( also caused by certain lubricants). But I never told him it hurt because I felt it was my responsibility to pleasure him. Not realizing that he didn't find it pleasurable to see me cringe when he pounded into me. We talked about it and realized each others problems. I learned more about him and he learned more about me. All the better for pleasuring each each other. You can't fully satisfy your partner by guessing. You have to know what they like or don't like. For example I hate when he pinches my nipples, but I like when he plays with them gently. Sometimes its irritating but when it turns me on it really turns me on. I get soaking wet just when he sucks on me. But if he bites or pinches I instantly dry up. +There area lot of tiny details that can change the whole picture. These are things that he or I wouldn't know without talking. Another thing about talking is being patient. There might be a night when your really into it but he or she isn't and they stop to tell you. Though its interrupting its important to take mental note of everything they say and learn from it. Also, allow for change, sometimes something that feels a week ago might feel uncomfortable later on. Moving onto my next Do. +5) CHANGE THINGS UP. Doing the same thing over and over again can become boring or uncomfortable. It keeps things interesting and exciting. There's only a few things to say on the subject. One, that it gives both of you something to look forward to. Two, there are many things to do to change up things in the bedroom including different positions, role playing, and many other things. That's where you do research on things online and then see what your partner thinks. That's where talking comes in. +There's a lot of things you should DO when it comes to having sex in a long term relationship. But along with all the Dos there's many things that shouldn't be done. Now we move onto the DON'T. +DON'T: +1) FORGET THE IMPORTANT THINGS. Whats more important? Pleasure or love? Remember why your doing what your doing. If your doing it just for pleasure you will leave out love. But if you do it for pleasure you are sure to find pleasure regardless. Sex was made for intimacy, not just pleasure alone. That's one thing that's important to remember when being in a long term relationship. Remember why you love each other and that sex isn't above your relationship. The best sex is found in commitment. Its kind of like having a certain setting for likes and dislikes and you don't have to change readjust that setting when your with the same person for a long time. Women enjoy sex more in a committed relationship for this reason. Trust and love are important in sex. +2) USE PARPHENELIA TO SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS. I know of couples who have used drugs, toys, and porn to solve their sexual problems. Problems include argument, dissatisfaction, and selfishness. Couples who argue over sex ( how much/ little, why, when) think the problem is each other. But often times it is that they are both at fault for not having talked about it or been patient enough to understand whats going on in each person. Dissatisfaction and selfishness are also big problems because often times women can feel unfinished afterward and the man can feel that all he wants is to finish himself. Sometimes women can be selfish too but that's not something that comes up often in these discussions. But women are often dissatisfied when their standards are not met and men can't really reach them. That's where understanding and compromise come in. But often times couples try to attest their short comings to the fact that they don't have enough to satisfy them. So they turn to drugs, toys, and porn as well as other things. They use the experimentation of these things to fill a gap that is caused by something entirely different. Don't use drugs. It creates more financial and personal problems than they are worth and do little to fully fix anything wrong with sex. +Don't expect toys to fix your problems either because for a LOT of women there is the problem of becoming numb to your partner. I used a vibrator and ended up preferring it over my fiancee because it made me desensitized to him and I got more upset at him for not making me come like he used to. ""Bad vibes"". Anyway though toys add to the fun don't use them in the place of sexual dissatisfaction. Also, porn. Now I know this is an erotic writing site as well as some porn. I'm not blind. But porn can become a problem. Why? Because instead of it adding to a relationship often times ( at least 9 times out of 10) men start to view sex differently. And so do women. It becomes more about pleasure and less about love. +Now, some can disagree with the statement that porn is bad, but you can't disagree that somewhere along the line it does cause some distress in relationships. Either women will be seen differently or they will see men differently. And the same goes for men. I'm not going to say porn is horrible and you should never watch it, but if there is problems in your relationship put it away and solve things by talking being loving. I do believe people can become addicted to porn. That's why I try to make sure we don't watch it and look at it too often, there was a point where he preferred it over me and I preferred toys over him. That only made problems worse. So, if I'm against porn than why do I come to this site. Well, I do like the romance and find that the stories people write are good. I also like reading the how to section :). But more than that its what I consider mild in what I choose to read and its not raunchy enough to make me think differently about him or myself. I find reading is a lot less dirty than watching. But I know everyone is not that same. There are different situations, but the whole point of this section is to just let you know that sometimes what you or your partner, or both of you, are doing can severely affect your relationship. So whatever you get into, remember each other. +3) IGNORE THE PROBLEM. It is absolutely inevitable that you or your partner are going to argue about sex. Along with talking try to come up with solutions that aren't just sexual. My fiancee liked to watch porn with submissive women and started pushing me more and more into sex. When I didn't want it he became a different person and I saw a side of him I never want to see again. It got to the point where all I could do was yell at him to stop and he wouldn't even think twice about it till it was over. I never told him how much it bothered me and that I wanted to leave him for it (but knew I couldn't) so I started to feel like a slave. I just did what he wanted and let him have his way. But that was just as much my fault as it was his. I never told him how I felt, I ignored the problem, and let him do what he wanted. That's when learned to speak up when something bothers me. +I learned he didn't really enjoy hurting me but that it was just his way of showing that he wanted to have his fun. Though we're still struggling bringing our problems to the surface has made it easier +4) HOLD ON TO THINGS. The greatest way to get over a fight is by having sex. When all the talking is done and your emotions are still high, but you've forgiven each other, let them know you still love them. Sometimes when I'm angry I take my fiancee and I jump right on him and force all the anger out into passionate love. It actually took a while to master love over anger. But now that I have we hardly fight. Once in a blue moon maybe. We argue regardless, but fights almost never break out. That's not say I don't let him know I'm upset, I just wait till I'm more calm to say how I truly feel without exploding. But while I'm having sex I try to forget about everything. Why I'm angry. What I need to do the next day. How things will work out. All of that I leave with my underwear on the floor. Because if I think about these things I can't enjoy the person in front of me. +5) EXPECT EVERYTHING TO BE PERFECT. Sometimes I get excited about a romantic night out, and in. But things can pop up out of no where. Try not be upset when something distracts you. And if you are upset that things didn't go as planned try not to take it out on your partner. Remember why you were being loving and romantic in the first place. And for women who are easily dissatisfied try not to think of your man as someone who can't live up to your standards. For men, when your girl isn't in the mood. Try to be patient and understanding. Women have a hard time reading their own feelings. Why, because there are women who don't know what they want. And that should be respected. But those women also need to know how hard it is on men to read their minds. Patience is key in any relationship. +I understand the disappointment many people get when the toy they bought isn't that pleasurable for their partner or the movie sucked or the dinner tasted awful. But the mistake many people make is thinking that everything is ruined. Men aren't romantic most of the time because 1) they feel that it won't go right, 2) Its not worth it, 3) the woman isn't going to like it. But one thing that men don't know is that women don't care about perfection, they care about effort. And one thing women should know is that men do care and try their best. They need to be encouraged and women need to be loved on. +I know a lot of this isn't exactly about sex, but the best part of sex is how your feeling about the person your with. Its not pleasurable for women to make love to a man that doesn't try to make them happy or feel cared for. And it doesn't make men feel good to think that they can't satisfy their woman. When a relationship is good sex feels good, but when both partners need each other, sex is a reminder of their bond. +Sex can say a great many things. When done right it should make the other person feel loved and pleasured. When done wrong it can make someone feel used and hurt. Love comes first in sex, not pleasure. Pleasure happens no matter what when you make love. Unless you don't care about the other person. Anyway you get the point. BUT! There's one more DO I wanted to mention because it is one that is very important and I just want you catch this: RESEARCH. Show the other person that you have taken time to learn about them and what can be done for each other. Research one another and study other things. I've been reading books on relationships, studying my fiancees likes and dislikes, looking online for fun things to do in bed. And let me tell you it makes him feel so good know he;s loved and thought of. And men, I guarantee that women love when you do the same. It shows that you care enough to try things and make things work. It shows faithfulness, thoughtfulness, and understanding. Don't stop learning about each other. +Don't stop trying new things because your going to be with him/her for a while if your truly dedicated. There is also a really big DON'T I want to mention: GIVE UP. Things aren't always going to be good, money isn't always going to be steady, life isn't always going to be fun. You've given this person your heart and soul and a big piece of you and your partner has been shared through sex. If you give up on one another that piece will break and shatter and be lost. The road isn't always going to be so steady but show your in it for the long run. Sex isn't just for pleasure, its a bond you share. Its the two of you becoming one. Mentally, physically, and spiritually. This whole thing is aimed at couples who plan on sticking it out and being together for a long time. Its aimed at people who do, and will, run into problems with sex and I think people put too much focus on making sex good than making it special. +I wrote this in hopes that I could offer even a grain of advise to those who have been trying to find something to add to their sex life for both the good and the bad parts. I know this isn't really erotic but its important if your going to be erotic. So don't forget when your scrolling through this sight theirs more to everyone's story than just sex ;) +Enjoy." +171,"Down, Boy!",Firebrain,How To,2011-01-08,2011-01-08,2022-01-04 08:28:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/down-boy,Writing the Alpha Male in contemporary fiction.,"['Alpha', 'Analysis', 'Author Advice', 'Boy!', 'Down', 'Stereotype', 'Vampire', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Erotica', 'Writing Guide', 'Writing How To']",4.77,"**DOWN, BOY!** + **WRITING THE ALPHA MALE FOR CONTEMPORARY FICTION** + _""I don't want to be the leader.

He goes by many names; Dom, Master, Daddy, Sir, Giles (ahh, wait -- that one's just mine. Ahem). He's the leader of the pack; the one who wears the trousers; he eats lesser men for breakfast and girl-parts for lunch. +He's also a big, fuck-off cliché. +There's a reason why Mr. Alpha is so popular, so let's not knock him until we have tried (hung and quartered) him. He embodies a lot of endearing/sexy/somewhat disturbing implications about my own self esteem, and that makes him hard to resist. Besides, isn't good fiction all about wish- fulfilment and escapism? +Maybe. +The problem is this: I'm getting some serious déjà _who?_ Every alpha story I read seems to be same guy, token differences, tweaked plot. So I googled ""writing alpha males"" and I got a bunch of blog articles from romance authors. It seems that nobody but the category romance gals wants to acknowledge the poor bastard -- yet, he turns up in all sorts of fiction. Now, if you want to write a category romance, great -- write that category character -- but what if you want something _more_? +Never fear! Dr. Firebrain is on hand to diagnose and prescribe (and that diploma is not mail order. I don't know what you mean. Want a cookie?). + **So: want to write a three-dimensional, addictive alpha male? Read on.** (Frankly, he's not going to be very forgiving if you don't). + **DIAGNOSIS: HARLEQUIN SYNDROME** + ** _""And this...is your opinion of me! ...My faults, according to your calculation, are heavy indeed! These offences might have been overlooked, had your pride not been hurt by my honest confession of the scruples that have long prevented my forming any serious design.""_** **Mr. Darcy, Jane Austen's** **_Pride and Prejudice_** +Stefano is a cunt. No, really -- he's a cunt. He's done despicable things in his life; as much as the heroine wants to jump his bones, she just can't bring herself to because he's such a big meanie. Maybe he cheated on her. Maybe he sold his brother down the river in a sordid business deal. Maybe he's a demonic soul-eater who has killed hundreds of innocent people in his quest for psychosexual crack. Here's the kicker -- Stefano seemingly shows no remorse. +But wait! No! Can it be? Stefano isn't really a cunt at all; it was all just a big **misunderstanding** on behalf of the ill-informed heroine. He didn't really cheat on her; a nasty rival female just set it up so she _thought_ that he had. He didn't sell his brother down the river; the brother was a lapsed alcoholic who was bitter at being shut out. And yeah, well...maybe he _did_ kill a lot of people as his bad-ass demon self -- but it's ok. He's repenting. +Stefano _seemed_ like he had no remorse because he's such a stubborn git who didn't want to appear weak by admitting it. Isn't that cute, when you think about it? Just the kind of guy you want to set up home with...no? + **Prescription** +1) **Patrocillin** Let's remove the misunderstanding part. It patronises both the character and the readers. If Stefano has faults, if he's made mistakes -- have him admit to them upfront, or after a little ribbing. Have him be the adult who's trying to deal with them. Don't be afraid to leave your alpha with some jagged edges, even in the event of a happy ending -- his dark side is one of the reasons that we love him. +2) **Oxycuntin** Let him actually be a cunt. They're fun to write, and women do tend to love them -- so long as they're not cunts to _us_ (in fact, this bit makes us feel special). It's important to note that a cunt is not a guy who's done bad things but has a ""reasonable explanation"" -- a cunt is just not a very nice person. People fall in love with not very nice people all the time, but they don't admit it very often. + _What?_ gasps the reader. _You're telling me to deliberately write a character whom people are meant to like, as dislikeable?_ Yes and no. Firstly, never assume that somebody has to be likeable for people to like them; at times, we see a quality in a person that validates something within ourselves, and they garner our sympathy regardless. Secondly, you'll be surprised at what a man can get away with in fiction if he's pretty and clever -- lots of people have written cunts and just called them vampires, and that has served them very well so far. (Run for your iPads, bitches -- I'm on to you!) Thirdly: people who do bad things are fascinating, and there's a whole hotbed of readers who like to dissect them. +Have you noticed the emergence of the anti-hero in popular fiction? He's especially prevalent in fantasy. He's not a wholesome good boy, but he's not a villain either; his purpose usually ends up being for the greater good, whether that is intentional or not. He's a cunt, but he gets the job done. The _Dexter_ series is a good example with the serial killer who only kills serial killers; he's a complex guy who needs careful handling from his writer, but done right? Ooh la la. + **DIAGNOSIS: STALKER SYNDROME** + ** _""It makes me...anxious...to be away from you.""_** **Edward** ** _,_** **Stephanie Meyer's** **_Twilight_** +He loves me, he loves me no -- whoa. Is that him outside my bedroom window, again? He must _really_ love me... +Dominic (see what I did there? See? Oh yeah) is a protective kind of guy. He just wants to keep me safe, you know? He feels this overpowering lust for me twenty-four hours a day, and I guess that means he can't bear to be parted from me in case I fall through a wormhole in time and space (or run off with a werewolf). That's why I wake up and he's watching me sleep, or he won't let me go out alone after dark (or in the light, come to think of it). If I find that I don't want him at first, he might get a bit rough and ready with me. This is partly because I'm so wonderful that he can't control himself (like my autistic cousin, Marty, but with eye contact), and partly because he just senses that I like to be fucked like I'm owned (despite this, he's preoccupied with the idea that he might break me. Jesus, boy -- consent is _so_ 2009). +The fact that he hangs around like a bad smell couldn't suggest he might be a bit insecure that I might leave him...could it? He doesn't assert himself so aggressively because he's afraid of being weak, oh noes. And I am definitely not insecure, needing a man to want me so desperately that he's ready to force me into the naughty naughties. There's nothing creepy about either of these things, so stop looking at me like that. +(Also, Dominic, I'm on the toilet. This is not cool, ok? I told you -- not for number twos!). + **Prescription: Divistat** +As much as he worships me, Dominic needs to get a life. He needs hobbies and friends, and while I want to be his top priority because we still have an overpoweringfuckawesomelove, if he didn't have or want the other stuff...he'd be a bit pathetic. Yeah, I know he struggles to control himself around white- hot me, but talk about that too much and it's going to feel too easy. Maybe I _am_ insecure, and that's ok...but let's not make it so obvious. Please?!). +Of course, he can still hold me down and screw me like he bought me at a slave auction, but he might want to check that I'm into that first...lest he do something embarrassing (like get arrested for sexual assault). An experimental neck bite or hair pull would suffice. + **DIAGNOSIS: GASTON SYNDROME** + ** _""As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating -- my, what a guy! Gaston!""_** **\-- Disney's Beauty and the Beast** +Gabe is the ultimate male: tall, defined muscles, cock of epic horse proportions, piercing eyes (they're sometimes _penetrating_ , of course), dirty smile. He'll have a token weakness such as his pet dog, or he'll be strangely and conveniently good with my four year-old. Occasionally, I orgasm if he bats his eyelashes a few times in quick succession. +He's just as glorious in bed; he favours missionary or doggy, where he can exert his horse erection to the point where it forces my cervix to disintegrate, and his cockhead eventually materialises in the Russian wilderness. This is appropriate because he has the intellect of an astronaut and the tenacity of a Soviet spy (fnar). +When he talks, it's about sex (read: me), work or himself. He's got a bedroom voice -- ragged and heavy with his lust -- and a boardroom voice, which is calm, deep and measured. I know when I've really got under his skin because he mixes the two up (either that or he forgot to take his bipolar meds). +Men want to _be_ Gabe and women want to fuck him -- but he's mine, all miiiiine! He's an alpha, and alphas are best at everything; there's nothing he can't do (except, of course, control himself when it comes to me. Or admit that he's being stubborn). He's rich, and if he's not famous -- he's _in_ famous in all the right circles. +You'd think that somebody this perfect might be a bit smug. A bit annoying, perhaps. Or maybe he's disgustingly modest. His sheer Godliness might even be a bit intimidating to a simple female like me. Not that this might ever get dull to read, oh no... + **Prescription** + **1) Moderatine** \-- give Gabe a fault somewhere, whether it's physical or psychological. Make it a valid fault, too; being shit at Monopoly does not count (be wary of all the usual clichés, like his guilt over his evil past, his inability to see his own loveliness or his weakness for the heroine. These may well be present but you need a sucka-punch combo with something else to make him stand out). Alphas tend to be physically strong and I wouldn't suggest that you write someone weedy, but he doesn't have to be six foot three with shoulders as wide as Australia. +You might even subvert a cliché; if he's a vampire, have him wear something other than a leather jacket; if he's a businessman, maybe he could wear something other than a suit (or make it a well described/nicely individual suit). Heck, how about an alpha who wears jeans and a band t-shirt? He's out there... +2 **) Oxycuntin** \-- being a cunt is usually the realistic product of being near-perfect. Thus, a healthy dose of ass-hattery is once again applicable -- if handled well. + **3) Xanass** \-- so you can't bear to have your alpha any less than perfect? Hnnnghh...gnash...[fist shake]...oh, ok then. You're going to have to make the people around him stop fawning over his every move. Perfect people are not liked by all, even if they're genuinely nice; friends, family and even loved ones get jealous and annoyed. This is often done through a sibling with hardboiled resentment, or another brooding alpha male as competition. Try to avoid those tropes if you can. Here's the trick, though: get the reader to sympathise with the jealous person, instead of the alpha. Have them question, in little moments, who's really in the right here -- you're going for a deep shade of grey, rather than black or white. Poof! Now you've made Gabe seem human and a teensy bit vulnerable, but without having to disturb his masterful façade. +(Note: having the enemy hate Gabe does not count. He's _supposed_ to hate him). + **DIAGNOSIS: FRISKY SPERM SYNDROME** + ** _""Who do you love -- the child, or me?""_** **Pregnant Dorelei to Imriel** ** _,_** **Jacqueline Carey's** **_Kushiel's Justice_** +Morgan's got a thing about getting me pregnant. He wants to pwn me, you see, and while marriage is necessary for the dramatic (but romantic) resolution of our story, the ultimate way to stamp your ownership over your woman/bitch/little girl/slave is to get her up the duff. Plant your seed. Put a bun in her oven. Clever evolutionary science-types have suggested that we like alphas because they're at the top, so they must have the best quality lurve gravy and thus will ensure the survival of the species. That actually makes sense (or at least, it did before metrosexuality happened. ""My sperm? By Clinique.""). +The thing that's been kind of bugging me about Morgan is that well...we've only known each other for _three weeks_. I know that our love is all- encompassing and uber-intense, but don't you have to know somebody a bit longer to guess whether they'll make a half decent parent? Sure, I love that he wants me so much that he wants all these natural, primal things (le swoon), but when I think about it...I kinda want to go travelling first before I get tied down with the sproggage, and it's going to take Vera Wang too long to make my perfect dress for a shotgun wedding (yes, I still care. No, it does not make me a bad person). + **Prescription** + **1) Microguynon** \-- maybe Morgan doesn't want kids. Plenty of alphas are too busy saving the world, having hotshot, workaholic careers or being rich Peter Pans to realistically want to be fathers, and meeting Mary Sue doesn't break their resolve. I know this isn't the height of wish fulfilment for a lot of women -- but there _are_ women who don't want kids, and they are your readers too (the ones who do want them can still fantasise about changing his mind). + **2) Approprion** \-- marriage and children, for most couples (even the perfect ones!) is usually a slow progression. Sure, accidents happen and some people want to do these things quicker than others, but there's a lot to be said for an alpha who wants to just enjoy his woman for a while first. Even if these things do happen sooner in your story, Morgan doesn't have to be so creepily obsessed by them. Let him not swoon over little girls with his love's eyes, or boys he can bring into the family business. Hell, let him be slightly terrified of them (and let Mary Sue be scared too) -- when he does come around, it'll make it all the more special. + **DIAGNOSIS: ME, TARZAN -- YOU, LAME! SYNDROME** + ** _""If you stay, something bad will happen. I think I might hurt you. You don't want to get hurt, do you?""_** **Patrick Bateman, Brett Easton Ellis's** **_American Psycho_** +Meet Cain: he's that slightly creepy older guy who lives in a mansion on the hill and has a love of classic literature. I discovered said house and said books when he tied me up in his library and left me there, naked and cold, for about, er...I think it was seventeen hours? Not that I was counting, or anything. +You'd be forgiven for thinking that Cain doesn't like me very much, because he sure as hell acts like it. I like to be hurt a bit by my guy as much as the next woman -- lush little bruises to mark me as his property? Check. No phone call for a day to keep me on my toes? Bring it on. Domestic abuse disguised as a power game? I might be a fawning female but even _I_ have standards, Cain. Standards! (And you can fuck off with your shitty two-ply toilet paper, because this is not a princess and the pea situation -- you're really just a tightwad, and that is not sexy.) +Cain tends to inhabit BDSM and nonhuman stories; it seems to be easier to get away with cunts-with-shoddy-excuses there (bad behaviour? It's ok -- I'm a vampire. Dangerous and disturbing fetish? Don't worry -- I'm at a munch). He occasionally pops up in the Incest category too -- as the aggressive Daddy who makes the little girl cry just so he can get off on wiping her tears away and making it all better. I'm not sure if he's aware that being an alpha is no excuse for treating a woman badly, or that he needs more than a genre to validate his bad taste in seventeenth century literature; fortunately, he's not scary enough to stop me telling him. Fnar. + **Prescription** + **1) Metafetishazol** \-- so Cain is the product of a deviant mind, and he's there to fulfil a more extreme fetish (if your chosen fetish is being left tied up for seventeen hours, I promise not to judge you. Much). That's fair enough. What he's going to do, though, is do it _safely_. He's only going to make you _think_ you're in trouble; in other words, nothing he does is going to leave any lasting damage to your body or your mind. A lot of alpha/dom behaviour tends to be explained as being designed to make the woman better/stronger/get in touch with her submissive side, but what a lot of it is written as is just ""all this shit will make you stronger."" The existence of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder tells us that this is not true. +Cain, the internet might not be as pretty as your first edition of _Alice in Wonderland_ , but could you at least Google ""tying a Japanese rope bondage knot"" so I don't get stuck again...? And Daddy, your monster cock is amazing and so much bigger than my boyfriend's -- but going to the ER with vaginal tears was kind of embarrassing. + **2) Oxycuntin + Patrocillin** \-- okay, so Cain likes hurting women and he's not that bothered if they like it. He kind of prefers it if they don't like it, actually. You can still make him your love interest (the psychology of this desire is interesting, but it's way too complex for this little essay), but don't think for a second that just being an alpha validates his behaviour -- he's still a cunt. Probably a misogynist too. +Part of the alpha's appeal is that he's just a bit scary. You know when Cain really gets my adrenaline pumping? When he's a fucking psychopath! Granted, you have to be a special kind of woman to want a bloodthirsty loose cannon in your bed, but we do exist. So make the most of this evil side. Flesh him out. Why is he like this? Why does he enjoy it? Don't patronise the reader with the usual ""misunderstanding"" bollocks -- this guy clearly has issues. Revel in them. Think Patrick Bateman, Humbert Humbert (perhaps not the nymphet bit), Angel before he went all wet blanket, Damon from the Vampire Diaries. Don't waste your time trying to redeem him or make him ""ok"" (if you write him right, your readers will redeem him for you) -- just enjoy him for what he is: un-pc, illegal, inappropriate, about to be sectioned...and kind of yummy. +**** +So we've done the painful part: we've addressed the stereotypes that plague the poor alpha. Confused? In mourning? Slightly aroused? Don't panic. +There's no reason why you have to ignore every cliché when writing your alpha; he wouldn't _be_ an alpha without certain characteristics. Certainly, be careful on how you mix those medications -- they don't all work at once. +To put things into perspective, here are some **alphas that I think we should see more of in fiction** \-- most of them break one particular mould, rather than smashing them all with their iron fists of literary uberness. They might just give you some ideas, or remind you of some pretty cool alphas that you've read about before. + **1) Mr. Three-Dom-Ensional** +William is a strong, straight-talking alpha who doesn't take shit from anybody (which he manages to maintain with a somewhat elusive demeanour).But how did he get this way, and why does he behave the way that he does? Sure, maybe he was just born competitive -- but that doesn't give readers (or writers) much to chew on. So don't just think about how William is now; think about what has happened to him (it doesn't have to be a traumatic event), and what he plans for the future. Does he have goals that aren't to do with power, money and sex? Does he have hobbies that are unrelated to that holy trinity? It's common to read about the alpha who just ""is"" -- he never seems to question himself, but he can be an alpha and still do that. It's not the same as being insecure. It's about being self aware, and that's sexy. +We often read about the alpha whose ""bark is worse than his bite"" -- and hey, even tough guys have feelings too! But is it really that simple? Does the bossy, prickly façade conceal a big teddy bear who just vants to have lotz of bebbez? +Maybe. But I find him a bit pathetic, if I'm honest, so I don't want to read about him. +What I _do_ want to read about is the alpha who has his own set of interesting (and possibly deviant) issues. We already touched on this with how bloodthirsty psychopaths seem to make awesome love interests (not very comfortable to see that written down, is it, hmm? But why do you like vampire fiction again...?), but to tone it down a little: how do his insecurities inform what he is? Exactly how far is this alpha prepared to go to assert his dominance, and does he ever worry about crossing his own self-imposed line? +Think about his dialogue, too; does William have to bounce between a guarded killjoy and a sex-crazed WWF wrestler? Can he be snarky and sarcastic, instead? Could he even be a little bit chatty? Dare I say it -- could your alpha talk like a _normal_ person? It makes things ten times more interesting when you get him into the bedroom and discover his other side... +Finally -- think about his position within the pack. One of the things that defines the alpha is the way that other men behave around him. Don't just surround him with yes boys or Judases; mix these guys up, too. Make your beta _better._ + **2) Mr. Grasshopper** +We tend to see alphas who are older (sometimes centuries older) and they're mostly very confident in their dominant natures -- because that's part of being dominant, isn't it...? +Not exactly. +The transitioning alpha is a fascinating creature. For whatever reason, he's realised that it is in his nature to lead and to be in control, and the shame of occupying the role that cunts usually inhabit is slipping away. He's experimenting. He's not quite sure of himself, and he's not ashamed to admit that. He's often quite young, too. He's occasionally done as a clichéd ""my wife/girlfriend left me, so I'm not taking any more shit,"" type -- but it's _so much more_ than that. He's not becoming something through deviant Darwinism: he's embracing what was always there. Sometimes he's revelling in his new experiences, and sometimes he's fucking up, lead balloon style. Either way -- I think he's my favourite; fledgling arrogance, buoyant enthusiasm, ever teetering on the edge of control? Mmm. Yes please. +So if he's not yet a full-blooded alpha, how is Mr. Grasshopper still sexy? Well. Imagine the boy next door, who's quiet and foppish and kind of cute. You never really thought he was your type. Now, imagine him standing over you bare-chested, pressing a firm palm over your left breast and inhaling deeply. Circling your nipple with his thumb as if he's never seen something so perfect. "" _Mine_ ,"" he says, squeezing down. +My work here is done. + **3) Mr. Twist Out of Water** +The alpha occupies a number of usual haunts: the business bad-ass has his office and plush hotel rooms; the Lord of the Manor has his study with the roaring fire and his dungeon with the shackles; the vampire has his somewhat bare and impersonal boudoir (usually filled with priceless antiques), or the alley around the back of Tesco's. He's not just made of flesh and teeth and questionable sexual practices: it's about his space, his life, and the people and things he surrounds himself with. +What about those guys we don't always think about as alphas, and the spaces they inhabit? The gamers at their tournaments, the emos at their gigs, the librarians (hello Giles!), the vicars, the hobos, the drummers, the yoga guys, the angels (proper angels, not just ""nice boys"" -- although nice boys can make intriguing alphas too). Take that guy who you think doesn't fit into the mould: warm him up. Get him pliable. Stuff him in. How's he looking? Pretty damn good, huh? +(In fact, if anybody can write a convincing -- and not spoof -- story about an impotent alpha, I will send you a picture of my breasts. Which are awesome, by the way. Word). +Another relevant point here is that the traditional alpha is somewhat outdated and old fashioned (again, we see this played on a lot with vampires who have been around for centuries, or older Daddy/dom figures). What does it mean to be an alpha in the modern world, and how has he evolved? + **4) Mr. Big(amy)** +We touched on the biological appeal of alphas earlier; how the (literal) cream of the crop is obviously going to produce the strongest offspring. This theme is prevalent in alpha stories. But what gets ignored, time and time again, is the point that such a man is going to be in demand by more than one woman -- and he's not going to resist, not all the time. He's going to have his cake and eat it, because he can. Nature is telling him to spread his seed, so he's going to put it on toast. And pancakes. And crackers. And Nancy, that hot chick who works at the bookstore. +Who dares to write about the polyamorous alpha? (Not the cheating alpha; he's an entirely different case). It's been done before -- in fact, the Cain type mentioned earlier seems to embrace this side of himself most often -- but what isn't done a lot is an exploration of the implications. The women around him seem to just accept it because Cain is an alpha, and what he says goes. That might be all good for the male reader's wish fulfilment, but it also gets old pretty fast; why not get your teeth into the juicy conflict here? So this alpha wants more than one woman -- women who don't just roll over and bat their eyelashes at him -- and he wants to make it work. How's he going to get that? + **5) Mr. Match Made in Hell** +All too often, the alpha meets a sweet, innocent girl and sees the error of his ways. Last Friday? He was kicking it with the guys, scoping out the chicks (while secretly thinking how lame his friends were for enjoying such pastimes, since he's better than that) and throwing a few beers/virgin nuns down his neck. This Friday? He's going to Ikea with Bethany and then meeting her friends for dinner; sure, it'll be awkward at first, but he'll win them over in the end through his dry humour, evident love for Bethany and the fact that even her guy friends will secretly want to lick his shapely man-buttocks. +Hold up there. +Alphas like a challenge, right? So what the hell is he doing with Bethany, the pouty virgin who's probably not going to let him near her asshole until they're in the throes of a midlife crisis? (Contrary to popular belief, women do not relax all their inhibitions or preferences for the ""right man""). Yeah, no guy has been good enough for her to bend her morals of steel -- yet -- but come on. Bethany _lives_ in wait for her alpha. There's a reason that the best ice cream in the world is named after two men; women melt for it, and for them (I wonder if Ben and Jerry are alphas?). It's that easy if you know how -- and the alpha does. +You know who'd be a _real_ challenge? Zara. The girl who is possibly slightly better than him at the office. The one who likes sex as much as he does, and is a lot more likely to want the things he wants in bed (and be experienced enough to be good at them). He's a confident guy; he doesn't need a girl who's never had a lover before just to bolster his ego...does he? So awesome is he, surely her previous lovers will pale into insignificance! Just because Zara dares to beat him at a few things, doesn't mean that she's dominant herself -- she could make the ultimate sub. Now _there's_ a challenge. +There's a tendency within genre fiction to have the heroine somehow ""redeem"" her alpha male. If she likes everything about him, though -- why would she want to do that? How about a girl (like Zara) who just accepts him as he is, and enjoys it? Why have our jagged, rough couple morphed into snuggly bears for the end of the novel? That's a very lazy way to resolve conflict. Why does our alpha have to change for the ""better"", and how can you do this differently? The conflict needs to come from elsewhere. +**** +Oh, you're still here? +Sorry. Daddy put me on the naughty step for doing all that thinking, and then I had to redo my pigtails and rub the cookie crumbs off my lip gloss. +Well, that's me done. Officially alpha'd out for at least...ooh, three hours. I hope I've offered a little insight into the alpha in fiction, and I hope you've come away with some cool new ideas. Or maybe you're just embarrassed about your old ones (if it helps, that happens to me all the time. Never give a blow job with a breath strip on your tongue). Either way: it's been fascinating, so thanks for coming along for the ride. +If you have anything to add, please do so in the comments section -- did I miss anything? Did I get it wrong? Do I owe you for a dry-cleaning bill after what you did to your trousers? Or do you have a rather fabulous example of an alpha story that breaks the mould? +I wish you many fun adventures in the reading and writing of alphas. This has been one small step for bossy boys, but one giant step for -- okay, okay, I'm sorry, Daddy! Don't do it again! Yes, alphas never take small steps...sob, whimper...ooh, that tickles." +172,The Dummy's Guide to Masturbation,story_time,How To,2001-04-14,2001-04-14,2022-01-04 08:39:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-dummys-guide-to-masturbation,In praise of our five-fingered lover.,['Act'],,"INTRODUCTION +Masturbation infers the absence of contact from others. In fact, involvement by others in the process can completely destroy the harmony and rhythm of the act, not to mention making any reference to the act as masturbation technically incorrect. +Therefore, faithfulness to one’s self is critical in masturbation, to the exclusion of all others. It is, of course, possible to enjoy masturbation in the company of others. However, the temptations intrinsic in such a setting make this the path toward failure and carnal weakness. +PART I AVOIDING TEMPTATION Enjoying an evening of self-loving can present challenges, especially if one will be out for the evening. Studies have shown that, when aroused, 99 out of 100 people would rather be with another person rather than love themselves; a sobering statistic for true monogamy. Therefore it is important to keep amorous possibilities from flaring up. +POINT 1—JUST FOR MEN Males in this situation should immediately go on the offensive. The most common mistake leading to sex with another person is to assume that doing and saying nothing is the best course to a night alone. Women love shy men either as a challenge or curiosity or, more commonly, as someone who will listen to them without interrupting them. +However, males can preemptively strike with such long-held traditions as the inane pick-up line. With just a few words, it is possible to alienate all of the female population of any bar with almost guaranteed results. In fact, barring the untimely revelation of your manhood from below your knee-length shorts, one is almost assured of a night alone after uttering the phrase, “Do you come here often?” +Poor hygiene, grammar and seemingly spontaneous social gaffes—flagellation, discussion of past or current venereal diseases, etc.—should be used in combination to improve one’s demotion in desirability as a male. +POINT 2—JUST FOR WOMEN Obviously, the above suggestions do not apply to women since men are truly omnivorous. One has merely to reflect on the sexual act of necrophilia to understand that men can and do want to have sex with anything. For women, however, distraction is the best solution. Only hang out with beautiful women who are “easy.” Do not just discuss venereal diseases you have had but be capable of producing a notarized copy of you health records. +Finally, should these fail, make sure that any prospective suitors understand that you have a cliff and some very friendly sheep in your backyard and wading boots in multiple sizes in the garage. While they may not be swayed from wanting sex, they are truly lazy and will often opt for the easiest path to fulfillment. +PART II—SETTING THE STAGE POINT 1—A WARNING ABOUT ROOMMATES If you are staying home for the evening, a little one-one-one-minus-one is a lot less likely to be derailed by others. However, if you have roommates, get good locks. Intrusions invariable end in one of two ways; humiliation or amorous interest by the other party. In either case, they are the leading cause for bad unisex. +Do not believe you are safe because your roommates are the same sex. In fact, accidental discovery of a roommate masturbating is a leading cause to those “experimental” phases people, especially women, seem to go through. And, for God’s sakes, be particularly careful in college since this seems to be the time when all women have lesbian sex. +POINT 2—LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION The two most likely setting for masturbation are the bedroom and the bathroom. Both offer the privacy and security that is so crucial in finger-induced fun. However, the cold sterility of the bathroom should make this a retreat of last resort. There is simply no room to stretch out and really be with one’s self. Instead, the act tends to be a frenetic moment of shamed release, praying that someone doesn’t need to use the facility for its intended purposes. +A bed is undeniably better suited for the act since the best position for masturbating is nearly identical to that of sleeping: studies are ongoing regarding a possible connection between the two. Comfort is important. However, decoration in the room is of no consequence since eyes will invariably be closed or all attention will be focused on the task at hand. +PART III—ACHIEVING ORGASM POINT 1—VISUAL, MENTAL OR PHYSICAL There are several stimuli for arousal where no other party is involved. They include both still and motion pornographic imagery or erotica fro those stimulated by sight or the written word. For others, artificial stimuli—vibrators, dildos, etc.—may be desirable. It is important to find one’s personal path towards personal gratification. It is also important to have those items on hand. To this end, it is recommended that these items not be shared since they may be inaccessible at critical junctures (not to mention the sanitary issues involved in sharing of some items). +It is also recommended that one be completely honest with one’s self and one’s sexual interests. While many people find themselves unable to confess what arouses them due to embarrassment, this will not apply here, except for the truly self-deluded and those suffering from multiple personality disorders. +POINT 2—HONESTY IS THE BEST POSSIBLE While self-gratification will optimally occur without interruption, one must always acknowledge that interruptions may occur. Obvious precautions should be taken such as taking the phone off the hook. However, some disturbances, such as a roommate or spouse knocking at the door, are unavoidable. At these times, there is a tendency to curtail activity and often be embarrassed at getting “caught.” +However, rapid cessation of activity can have disastrous physical effects and the emotional effects of this can be horrible as well; Feeling dirty, wrong, embarrassed, etc. Instead, one should be honest with one’s self and others. If someone should knock at the door, an innocuous “I’m busy” should suffice. For the more curious who want to know what you are busy doing, tell them. Bluntness will, in most cases, ensure a hasty retreat and a return to blissful aloneness. The phrase “I’m masturbating” seems to cut through the air and will almost always end all subsequent conversation. +Of course, if the intruder continues to distract, be more graphic in your description of the act you are performing or the fantasy you are using to excite yourself, whichever you feel would be more disturbing to the listener. +POINT 3—THE ACT There are many techniques for pleasuring one’s self. However, discussion is of little value once one has become honest with one’s self. If you like putting a finger or another object in your to increase your excitement, you do not need to see this suggestion in a book or read about how to do it. The desire to do so and the way to do it already exist with you. It merely requires being open enough to admit that you like anal stimulation and have access to plenty of soap afterwards. +Therefore, there is now reason to belabor that act itself. In fact, having created the right environment and the right mindset, the act will invariably take care of itself. Like eastern philosophy, one must simply have the patience to let it happen. +POINT 4—HAVING FUN Once the act is complete, there is always the question as to what to do with the residue. For many, this seems and embarrassing part of the act. Having achieved bliss, the return to reality is filled with the sticky evidence. There is often the urge to simply clean it up with a towel or Kleenex and try to hide this act of self appreciation. +However, one should always consider this time as an opportunity. Since successful completion of the act will always involve such liquid traces, one should consider it to be a happy memento…and one with so many enjoyable uses. For instance, the liquid can make a great party mix and increase one’s enjoyment as the host of a party. Why, with each sip…well, you get the picture. Similarly, one can find all kinds of uses, even taking advantage of its lubricating qualities for home improvement. The possibilities are literally endless and, once more, enjoyment of this aspect will reinforce the correct mindset of openness so important to enjoying one’s self. +CLOSING While many may consider the above to be humorous and misguided, consider the heart of the message; admit who you are and seek what you enjoy. While the discussion has pertained to masturbation, this ideal carries through into all of sexuality. Few find satisfaction in the act and most are riddled with guilt and disappointment. However, such shame is misplaced unless one should feel shame for something that everyone has done. Even more frustrating, such an attitude creates a mindset for conformity over enjoyment that denies pleasure by not exploring and refining the mechanisms for enjoyment." +173,Ease Your Way Into the Sex,Queen_of_Dairy,How To,2001-09-07,2001-09-07,2022-01-04 08:28:02,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/ease-your-way-into-the-sex,Easing your characters into sex scenes.,['Sexual Tension'],3.55,"TABLE OF CONTENTS +1\.

The key is to be prepared in advance by using this technique consistently and for the rest of your life, so that women don't reject you when you meet them for the first time. Because those first three seconds are critical to whether you constantly get rejected by women or not. When you use this technique consistently and for the rest of your life, women will try to break down your door to fuck you and they will bring all their female friends with them so that they can fuck you to. +The technique. +The easiest and most effective way to increase your sexual stamina is to ejaculate as many times a day as you can. The more times a day you ejaculate the more women will try to fuck you, because women have the ability to instinctively recognise when you can't satisfy them sexually. So If you want to try to get one beautiful woman in your bed then you must ejaculate more than two times a day, every day for the rest of your life. If you want to try to get two beautiful women in your bed then you must ejaculate more than four times a day, every day for the rest of your life. If you want to try to get three beautiful women in your bed then you must ejaculate more than six times a day, every day for the rest of your life. If you want to try to get four beautiful women in your bed then you must ejaculate more than eight times a day, every day for the rest of your life. And so on. Some of you may be wondering why the ratio of ejaculations per woman is more then 2 to 1. The answer for this is simple +a woman's default position is to automatically reject you. +I don't need to tell you this because you already know this from remembering all the times you have been rejected by women over and over again. Therefore your sexual stamina and ability to satisfy them sexually has to be at least twice as Strong as a woman's instinctive desire to automatically reject you. because women have the ability to instinctively recognise when you can't satisfy them sexually. Therefore if you are trying to get a threesome you must ejaculate more than four times a day, every day for the rest of your life, Because if your noodle goes limp after one ejaculation, the women you are trying to have a threesome with will laugh at you and then leave slamming the door shut on your sex life, Because they will tell all their female friends about your limp noodle. And then Soon every woman you meet will be instinctively rejecting you. because women have the ability to instinctively recognise when you can't satisfy them sexually. as you already know women can be incredibly ruthless and cruel to you. And you don't feel a strong desire for women to continue to be incredibly ruthless and cruel to you more and more. Do you? So from now on every time you get rejected by more women, go home and ejaculate more than four times. And from now on every time more women are incredibly ruthless and cruel to you, go home and ejaculate more than four times. And from now on every time more women are indifferent and rude to you, go home and ejaculate more than four times. So start increasing the number of times a day you ejaculate to more than four times a day, every day for the rest of your life Because when you consistently use this technique for the rest of your life, the sexual rewards will be beyond your wildest dreams. Because this technique has worked for everyone that has used it consistently. +Important note one. +Use masturbation to increase the number of ejaculations you have a day. Even if you already have a regular sexual partner ( girlfriend / wife ) Do not try and force them to have more sex with you, to increase the number of your ejaculations. Because this will backfire on you badly, you have been warned. Just Continue to have sex the normal amount of times with your regular sexual partner ( what ever that may be in your particular case ) and then use masturbation to increase the number of ejaculations you have a day. +Important note two. +remember to increase the number of times a day you ejaculate steadily and gradually over time, don't try and ejaculate ten times on the first day you start using this technique. Start with one ejaculation every day for the first month. Then two ejaculations every day for the second month. Then three ejaculations every day for the third month. Then four ejaculations every day for the forth month. Then five ejaculations every day for the fifth month. And so on, until you reach your desired number of ejaculations a day and than just consistently continue to ejaculate that many times a day for the rest of your life. This is just a guide because this time scale will vary from man to man depending on your current sexual stamina. This process may take you six weeks or six years depending on your current sexual stamina. Space your ejaculations out evenly over the 24 hours, giving yourself at least 4 hour recovering time between each ejaculation to start with.

You're not an English major, but want your story to read well. I wrote the following short checklist to help you. It contains no jargon or technical terms. Much below reflects my opinions, not rules of grammar. Remember free advise is worth everything you paid for it. +* * * * * +Proofread your story by reading it out loud, slowly, to yourself. A trap for writers is they sometimes see what they meant to write, not what they actually wrote. +When reading a sentence, if it feels natural to pause, there's a good chance a comma goes there. A comma can also help the reader use your words the way you intended. EXAMPLE: He stood slowly ran to the door hesitated then opened it. SHOULD BE: He stood slowly, ran to the door, hesitated, then opened it. +Keep each sentence short. Three short sentences usually read better than one long one. +Keep paragraphs short. Paragraphs help the reader's eye not get lost. A paragraph is also a chance for the reader to mentally catch their breath. +Only use 'AND' when absolutely necessary. Too many sentences use 'AND' when using a comma or period will read better. Never have more than one 'AND' in a sentence. +Use ', AND' or ', THEN', but avoid ', AND THEN'. +Nine times out of ten, you can remove the word THAT, yet the sentence reads just a well. +I like contractions, I prefer seeing HE'D instead of HE WOULD. HE'LL instead of HE WILL. WASN'T in lieu of WAS NOT, etc. +Avoid begin sentences with these words: THEN, WELL, SO, NEXT, NOW, etc. If you remove the first word of a sentence, and the sentence still reads well, you probably don't need it. +PLEASE use your spell checker. +Remember your spell checker won't catch many typos or mental lapses. Example: writing TO when you should have written TOO or TWO. I often type FORM when I meant FROM, but both words pass a spell check. +Use TOO [not TO] when describing an extreme. Example: It was TOO small. +If a character has a name, use it from time to time. If a paragraph has a dozen SHE or HER's, consider replacing some of them with a name. +If more than two character's of the same gender/sex are involved, use names frequently so the reader can't get confused about who is doing what to whom. +If one word can replace three, fix it. Example: My hand started to move... vs. My hand moved... Or how about BEGAN for STARTED TO +Remove unneeded, distracting words. Example: He stood UP... Can he stand down? Therefore He stood... is probably all you need. 'He walked OUT INTO the kitchen', would read better as 'He went to the kitchen.' +Small words are often more effective than larger ones. Example: I started to NOTICE that her blouse was... could be written as 'I SAW her blouse was... +Your story should normally stay in one tense, past, present, or future. Many stories on this site are past tense, people writing about something that happened in the past. Therefore, words like WALKED, RAN, OR SAT would be used instead of WALK, RUN, or SIT. +Don't switch tenses as you go. 'I went into my room, I sit on my bed...' should be 'I went to my room, I sat on my bed...' +Many word processors have a Thesaurus. This means you can highlight a word, run the Thesaurus, and it will give you a list of other words with a similar meaning. Should you use insure or ensure? Further or farther? The Thesaurus MAY give clue which is the better choice. +Try not to repeat the same word in a sentence. Example: By this time it was time to time her. Could be: Meanwhile, it was time to record Sue's speed. Again, the Thesaurus can help here. If the word HOT appears 8 times over a couple paragraphs, the reader may well get bored. Each time you repeat a word, it can lose impact. You can probably remove half or more of the HOT's, yet improve the story. Can any of the remaining HOT's be swapped for another word? Fiery, sizzling, searing, steamy, warm, scalding? +If you seriously want to improve your skills or story, Literotica.com offers free editors. This sounds like a great service. An editor can be a huge help. But be fair to them. Do all the things listed above you can, before asking someone to help you fine tune a submission. +My definition of insanity: Continually doing the same thing, yet expecting different results. +* * * * * + _This article was written for posting on Literotica.com.

I mean, if you happen to be with a woman who has never had anyone eat her then maybe you'll be o.k. Marry a virgin and never let her learn about how great it is to have her pussy licked and sucked and you'll probably get away with it. But if you're with a woman who's been eaten, then you better, too, or else get left behind. +I'll tell you why I'm saying this. Many years ago, I had a chance with the sexiest girl I'd ever seen. A red head with a fabulous body. We ended up in bed, naked, and I fucked her. She said, ""Merry Christmas"", even though it was June, and never dated me again. I wasn't aware of what I'd done wrong for several years. +I married a lovely girl. We're still married 47 years later. She was a virgin and, while I wasn't, I might as well have been. I'd managed to fuck a few easy tarts but I'd never had a lasting relationship until getting married. I spent almost two years trying to get her interested. I mean, we fucked. Or perhaps I should say, I fucked. She just accepted me. But I couldn't get her truly aroused. She let me but she wasn't really into it. I knew this wasn't what I wanted. +I really don't know how it happened that I finally went down on her. I guess I'd tried everything and knew that oral happened so decided to try it. The world changed. I now had a hot woman in bed with me. I didn't know diddly about what I was doing but the mere attempt to do it worked. I don't think she knew either but in some basic way it turned her on. +I'm now 79 years old. We've had three children, all grown and we're grandparents. About twenty years ago I started having problems getting erections. After seeing a couple doctors, I was prescribed a pump. Well, it worked. But it's horribly intrusive. I mean, we're holding one another and kissing and starting to feel each other and I have to say, ""Just a moment"" and get up and go pump the darn thing up and put a big cock ring or fancy rubber band on it to hold the erection. But it's better than nothing. +Then Viagra came into existence and it worked for several years. Made sex a lot easier. The older we got, the hornier she seemed to get. When we were first married, I had to really work at getting her involved. I suspect I never really succeeded but she did let me fuck her. I didn't want to be insensitive but I'm a basic clod when it comes to sex. Perhaps I am when it comes to anything. +But I have learned, over the years, that I actually like eating her. Getting my tongue in there, pulling her lips open so I can dig my tongue in and find everything. Particularly her clit. Enjoying having her go nuts, grabbing my hair and pushing me in tight, wrapping her legs on me and then pulling my head away once she's cum and is all sensitive. I'm not getting anything out of it, it would seem, but some how I am. I love it. +Well, now, Viagra doesn't work any more. Cialis and whatever doesn't either. I've tried it all and been to doctors. I'm told it's more common than I might think. So, now, all we have left is my eating her. I think I've got pretty good at it over the years. I manage to give her the desired orgasm with some regularity. I can use the pump and do occasionally but I'm left with a much smaller cock than I once had and I don't get as far into her as I once did and with the cock ring on I never come so even when I try using it, I still end up eating her so that at least she gets her release because I never get mine. It's frustrating.. +Fortunately, she cooperates like mad. I end up like an old crock crawling up over her and pulling her to the edge of the bed so I can get at it. I mean, trying to bend down with your chin stuck in the mattress to lick her way down between her legs is almost impossible. Edge of the bed is the answer. And fortunately, I finally have, after 40 some years, figured out where her clit is and manage to get her off pretty well. +So what I'm getting at is, when you're young, the really attractive ones will have been pussy licked before and you better, too, or they'll never see you a second time. And when you get old, that's all that's left, so you better figure it all out and get good at it. You'll have women loving to be with you. Or one woman, anyway." +177,Edited Emails,mforj,How To,2001-04-02,2001-04-02,2022-01-04 08:28:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/edited-emails,How emails can help couples explore their wilder side.,"['Big Black', 'Black Monster', 'Catch Breath', 'Cum', 'Dirty Slut', 'Gently Pull', 'Kissing Deeply', 'Make Suffer', 'Mixed Cum', 'Shoulder Eyes']",3.97,"_What follows are extracts from emails between M and J over the course of a few days. They start off describing a casual encounter and some semi-public sex ... but go on through sex with a dark stranger and some BDSM We explore areas that we each knows will excite the other as well as ourselves. The pleasure is 3 fold .. writing for another, imagining how much it will excite them .. and receiving their thoughts. In exploring this way we can discover a lot about our own limits._ +* * * * + _FROM HER .. a simple enough start_ +Party (again!!). You had a row with the wife and decided to come alone. +As you walk in the room you are full of pent up energy and anger. I look up as you walk in and our eyes meet. Something goes ""zing"" across the room and we both smile ...... then proceed to ignore each other, each perfectly aware at all times where the other one is. +A couple of hours later I go alone to get another drink. You follow me. Our backs to the room, you reach out and cup one of my tits in your hand, rubbing my nipple with your thumb. I catch me breath, but still haven't looked at you. Finally I turn, and nod slightly. This tells you what you want to know.We go back to ignoring each other for the rest of the party. +Finally it gets late. People seem to be re-locating to the kitchen, all talking and laughing still. Hubbie is challenged to a drunken game of chess - we know it will be awhile........ you walk to the kitchen door and look at me. I follow. +Back in the lounge, it's dark, smoky and very loud slow music is playing. A couple sit talking and kissing on the sofa - another few people dance slowly - unaware of anyone else. You lead me to a corner, push me up against the wall and kiss me. I can feel your hard cock pressing into me. I wear a floaty skirt which you gently pull up at the front. Earlier at the loo, I'd taken my knickers off in readiness for you. You reach down to touch me, and smile at what I've done. Kissing hard, you use your fingers to fuck me, rub me, touch me. You say simply ""I want to fuck you"". +I help you undo your flies. Lifting one leg around behind you, I use my fingers to gently pull my lips apart, granting you easy access. You enter me quickly, we're both panting, desperate and longing. Standing there, fucking, wondering if anyone will see - will anyone break from the kitchen and come looking for us???? Touching my clit as you fuck me - god it feels so nice. Kissing deeply all the time, between ragged breaths. You tell me to cum. Saying words you know will work, talking, your breathing turning me on even more. I cum for you. Trying to be quiet, although who would hear over the music? You cum with me .............. +Is that the end?? + _FROM HIM .. knowing her preferences_ +No .. it's just the start .. +When you regain your breath and open your eyes you look over my shoulder and right into the eyes of a big black man who's grinning at you .. ""is it my turn?"" he asks. +I look at you and we are both instantly alert .. neither of us know him .. but I can tell you are turned on so I simply nod at you .. and you nod at him. +I pull my cock from you and my cum immediately starts to trickle down your leg. As I adjust my clothes and walk a few steps away he takes my place between your legs .. and you suddenly realise he is massive and completely rigid. +There is no time for you to reach down and prepare yourself .. but also no need .. you are so wet, slippery and wide open that he starts to slide in easily .. what makes you catch your breath again is how far he goes .. how thick and long this new black monster is. +You see me watching from the corner of your eye .. but you can't stop the waves of pleasure that are flooding through you .. and he isn't going to stop. +I walk towards you and look over his shoulder right into your eyes .. +“enjoy yourself, Slut, you'll suffer for it later!"" +Is there more??? + _FROM HER .. she wants to go to darker places_ +oh my god yeah!!! Do I taunt you..... you know I can wind you up, it makes you think of more to make me suffer .......... +I smile at you and say, ""but he's so big"". I'm sure that'd wind you up enough - lol. You whisper ""later"" and move away slightly, just watching. +Hopefully by this point, hubbie has passed out in the kitchen otherwise I'm in trouble - and no, I don't want to bring him into this! This is about you and me. +Previously, we'd agreed to no kissing between me and the others. You watch me getting fucked really hard by this monster ....... he's almost pushing me up the wall. For a while, its all I can do to hold on and enjoy the ride......... but I'm so turned on, I start to touch him, run my fingers over his body, caress him - you remember how that feels - recall the many times I've done it to you. He kisses me, for all he wants a quick fuck, he's got a gentle manner, kissing deeply and expertly. +He cums quickly. I didn't. +So he continues to kiss me while he fingers my cunt. Rubbing the mixed cum over my thighs. I cum, moaning deeply into his mouth. +Very, very briefly, my thoughts have left you, and you know it. +What do you do? I can't decide, does he go down and suck your mixed cum out of me, or does he ask me to suck him. +Either way, I need your permission??? Or have I gone far enough already? + _FROM HIM .. going with her_ +You have to feel pain now. +You know that you've gone much too far .. one glance at my face and you see more than disapproval. I'm angry! You kissed him! You let him come in you! You came! +You are not going to come again now .. he is not going to lick and suck you. +You're right about hubby .. he's so busy he won't notice you for hours .. but I will .. and intend make you suffer. +I tell the man, who is now wondering what to do, to get lost and as he quickly turns away and zips up I grab you by the hair. Dragging you upstairs to the host's bathroom I tell you what a fucking dirty slut you are .. and you deserve all that you're going to get. +First I want to make you clean - I push you into the bath .. pull up your skirt and turn the bath taps on full... then turn the water to the shower spray and direct it at your legs, cunt and arse. +I'm not particular about the temperature and first it hits you as a freezing cold gush .. then it starts to get hotter as I direct the jets to where you are must sensitive .. and messy. I spray deep into you and watch the mixture pour out and run over your legs and now soaking skirt. I push the nozzle hard against you and turn off the hot supply to make you suffer again. +I keep this up until I am sure you are absolutely clean and whimpering for forgiveness .. then I turn your face up and look at you .. and I can't help but slap you hard three of four times for your greed. I see you relish the pain .. your face is red and streaked with my fingermarks. +I tell you again what a filthy bitch you are .. no self control .. begging for it with the complete stranger .. you deserve more pain. +I throw a towel at you and tell you to tidy yourself .. we're going to explore the house for chances to make you pay. +Is this what you want?? + _FROM HER (3rd party description) .. making herself write what she wants to feel_ +She stands holding her wet skirt round her waist. He's holding her other wrist tightly whilst the shower presses hard against her cunt. The cold water gushes at her. It's agony. +When he's finished, he drags her out of the bathroom, and into a bedroom. He pulls at her skirt to get it off, the fabric rips. Somewhere deep inside him, he recognizes that she has to go back downstairs later, so he steps back and says in a steely voice +“Get undressed, now!"" +She does. He undresses. She realises that his anger is genuine and for the first time that night is a little afraid. +He pushes her back on the bed. Climbing on top of her, he pins her arms down with his knees, yanks her head back by the hair and leans in close. +“You are a dirty little slut and you're going to pay for what you've just done"" he tells her. +“Marcus, please, I'm sorry"" she says, but he's not listening. +He thrusts his cock deep into her throat, pushing all the way in. She gags, but lies still. +Then she struggles and tries to get away from him, moaning ""no... no"". He slaps her face, pinning her hands above her head with one of his as he shoves her legs apart. +“Not like this, please, not like this"" she begs him. +“Shut up and open your fucking legs"" he tells her. +Her cunt is cold from the shower and at first very dry. He doesn't care. He thrusts into her, past her pain barrier, thrusting, thrusting. When he's in, he holds her hips, impaling her on his cock. Leaning forward he bites her. Shoulders, chest, fleshy tits, nipples, biting, sucking, hurting. +She feels her desire begin to build. Oh god, what should she do. If she responds he'll call her a dirty slut, if she doesn't he'll say she only wants the big black monster. +“Marcus, can I cum please?"" she finally whispers. He stops, it breaks the spell. +He looks down at her, sees the desire in her eyes, the hard, red hand mark on her cheek. He pushes deep into her and tells her +“Yes, I want to hear you. Cum - for me!"" +“Thank you"" she whispers. ""Cum with me."" +He fucks her again, still biting, still hurting, but gentler this time. Its what she wants. He'll do it because it brings out his dark side - and he likes it. +That's how she wants it - his lover!" +178,Editing One's Work,History Nut,How To,2006-04-12,2006-04-12,2022-01-04 08:28:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/editing-ones-work,Discusses using a text to speech program as an editing tool.,"['Writing', 'Writing Advice']",4.69,"**Editing One's Work: Using a Text to Speech Program as a Proofreading Tool** + ** _In December 2006 I posted this to Literotica under the title: Using Microsoft Reader as a Proofreading Tool. Since that time, MS Reader has been changed in such a way that it is no longer useful for this purpose._** +* +What follows below is the original essay on the need for proofreading, followed by comments on text to speech programs that are available as freeware. +As writers we are obligated to write in a manner that makes reading a pleasure for those who read our stories, articles, essays, or books. +The need to tell a good story is almost so obvious that it needs no further comment. Almost, but not quite: a good story must flow smoothly from one scene to the next so that the reader does not get lost and confused by a sudden change of direction in the story line. +When we are traveling on the highway, we depend on information signs along the way to tell us where we need to turn in order to get to where we are going. In a similar manner, readers need something to tell them that the story line is changing. It may be switching from person A to person B, or it may be a change of location, or time. But, if you, as a writer, don't tell the reader that the change of direction is coming up, he will try to go straight ahead and become lost and confused. We call the information signs that we as writers use 'transitions.' Others have written volumes about the proper use of transitions, so I will not try to instruct you in their use at this time. I mention them here, because as you are editing your work before submitting it for publication, you must look for those transitions that keep the reader going where you want the story to take him. +Properly constructed sentences and paragraphs are also essential to good writing, writing that is a pleasure to read. A sentence must contain only one idea. It begins with a capital letter and ends with a punctuation mark. Three punctuation marks can signal the end of a sentence. The most common one is the period (.). The second most frequently end punctuation is the question mark (?). The third is the exclamation mark (!). With the exception of the period, only one sentence ending mark should be used, and more than one period can be used only for a specific purpose. When you wish to tell the reader that the sentence he is reading has begun, but has no end, you end it with three periods. We call these three periods and ellipse. Ellipses are used only to show an unfinished sentence. They are not meant to show a long pause in a sentence. That is done with one of the internal punctuation marks. +The use of internal punctuation marks seems to be in flux, so I suggest that you read a good, recently published, book on grammar and punctuation to learn the proper use of these essential tools of good writing. +Internal punctuation is essential to good writing because they set the pace of what is written. They are similar to speed limit signs along the highway. Each one tells the reader to slow down a little, to take a breath and move forward a little more cautiously. +In past years, many people had little access to books, and many could not read. Nevertheless, they enjoyed a good story and attended public readings. The reader read from a book or a script. The internal punctuation in each sentence told him where, and how long to pause to make what he was reading sound more dramatic, more life like. +Now that nearly all people can read, and books are readily available, the internal punctuation in a sentence is somewhat less important. Yet -- effectively used, it can help us convey to our readers what we want them to understand, or to vicariously experience. +The internal punctuation marks are the comma (,) the semi-colon (;), the colon (:), the n-dash (--) and the m-dash (—). Some people also consider the n-space and m-space internal punctuation marks. These spaces are of the same length as the dashes of the same name. +If you are reading aloud, a comma tells you to take a quick, short breath before continuing on. A semi colon signals a pause for two short breaths, and a colon signals three breaths. M and n dashes tell the reader to pause for dramatic effect. The length of the pause is shown by the length of the dash. It is longer than the three breath pause shown by a colon, and is open to interpretation by the reader. +To see internal punctuation at work, go to your public library on the morning that one of the librarians is reading to a group of children. Hear for yourself the effect of these internal punctuation marks on what the librarian is reading to the children. +Sentences are systematically arranged together to make paragraphs. Visualize, if you will, a table. The entire table is a paragraph. It has unity, and is well balanced. Its legs are the sentences it contains. Every sentence must fit that table. If the sentences do not fit, the table is unstable, and will look strange. Just as a table does not look right if it has two legs that are straight, another that is round, and one that is ornately carved, a paragraph does not look right if the sentences within it are written in a different style, or a different verb tense. +Now it is time to clear the confusion you probably have about the sub-title of this article. We all do our best to edit our work. But; I have found in my own experience that merely reading my work to my self does not always catch all of my typos, punctuation errors, and syntax errors. To catch these errors I have to hear what I've written while following along visually on the typed page. I used to have my wife read my manuscripts to me. Since her death, however, I have no one to read to me. Still, I need to hear my words so that I can know they are right. +Initially, I recommended using Microsoft Reader to listen to the text that you have written. During this past year, MS Reader has been revised in a manner that does not lend itself to use as a proof reading tool. Since I still need to hear my stories in order to edit and correct instances where I have used a wrong word, but spelled it correctly, thereby missing it when doing a spell check, or to revise a clumsily written sentence, I have been forced to find another text to speech program. +I hate to buy software without being able to try it, therefore, I did a Google search for ""freeware, text to speech programs."" I found eighteen programs that can be downloaded free of charge. One site lists a rating for each program, the date it was added to the site, and the number of downloads since that date. +Of the programs I downloaded and tested, NaturalReader 7 seems well suited for use as a proof reading tool. I like this program because it highlights the sentence being read and uses a contrasting highlight for the word under the cursor. This allows me to read the text while listening to it, thereby giving me two ways to find things I need to change. +Although my personal choice, at this time, is NaturalReader 7, other writers may find one of the other programs better suited to their needs. +Nearly all of these programs are available as freeware, however, the freeware versions are often stripped down versions, and while adequate the voices used still sound artificial. For a nominal cost, one or more full versions are available with a variety of natural sounding male and female voices. Moreover, the full versions of many of these programs are also capable of reading in various non-English languages and do so with correct pronunciation and inflection. Many of these programs also allow one to save the text as a mp3, or a wave file. This allows a writer to copy the spoken text to a CD or DVD for use as an audio book. +One final thought: by downloading these programs as freeware, one can test them and delete ones that do not work to one's satisfaction. Then, if desired, a full featured version of the most satisfactory program can be bought with some assurance that it will meet ones needs." +179,Editors & Etiquette,KillerMuffin,How To,2001-02-17,2001-02-17,2022-01-04 08:28:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/editors-and-etiquette,How to use the Volunteer Editor program to your advantage.,"['Common Sense', 'Editor', 'Editors & Etiquette', 'Story', 'Story Writing']",,"Cruising for an editor? A bit of etiquette... +Common sense, above all, should be the watch word. You aren't exactly trying to get a job interview as the CEO of Diamler-Chrysler, so the p's and q's aren't life and death important. You are, however, trying to get a stranger with some knowledge on the subject to look at your story and tell you what they think. You don't want to make this person feel hostile toward you, or think you're rude right off the bat either. Since Miss Manners isn't likely to stick her etiquette minded nose into it, a short list of ""guidelines"" might be of use to first time, or even 40th time, story submitters. +There is only one set in stone rule. Use your common sense. Some of us have to dig deep to find it, but I'm sure it's in there. Somewhere. 1. Some editors preferred to be queried first. Some don't mind receiving a story and a thanks for your time email. Some might. It's best to query first. Some editors don't have a full box, some don't have time. I've talked with several and opinions on this vary. It's better to be safe than sorry and to err on the side of politeness. +2\. Don't assume the editor has the same word processor you do. Some editors use off the wall things, like me. I use Word Perfect. That means I can't read your file. You may be using a Mac and your editor may have windows. In that case, you'll have to paste into an email. Usually saving in rich text format helps. +3\. Unless your story is short, don't paste it in an email without asking the editor first. I don't edit online. I do it in WordPerfect, and cutting and pasting out of the email usually loses the formatting. +4\. Be polite and don't use ""chat or email"" shorthand. hi, :~) hope u have time to do this 4 me! If an editor you are querying is pretty busy, this may get you rejected. +5\. Please realize that the editors are all volunteers. They are doing this in the interest of good writing and good stories. They aren't being compensated in any way, shape or form. They don't have to accept your story and it's not a privilege to edit your story. On the other side of the coin, you are due a timely response. If the editor you've chosen doesn't return your email within a reasonable amount of time, look through and find another one. (Laurel's note: if an editor does not give you a timely response, please email Laurel with the details.) +6\. All the editors come from different backgrounds. Some haven't edited anywhere else, they just have a talent with grammar, punctuation, and spelling. If you are looking for something specific, let them know. Sometimes an editor and a writer just don't match up. Don't be disappointed or feel that your writing isn't any good because your editor doesn't feel that they can edit for you due to a style difference. It's your content, not your writing that the editor has trouble with. Ernest Hemmingway is a master author, I can't stand to read it. Stephen King is a master author, some people can't stand to read it. Danielle Steel is a master author, some people can't stand to read it. +7\. Don't argue with the editor. They are merely giving you their opinion, you may take it or leave it as you choose. In some instances the editor is dead wrong, and bringing it up to them in a polite, assertive way will do far more for both of you than doing it either passively or aggressively. Everyone is human. +8\. Your story is your baby. When an editor points out something they feel is wrong, don't get offended. They aren't attacking you or your story. They are trying to help you. Writing and editing is a learning process, some of the bumps in the road can hurt. +9\. After you get your story back from the editor and start going through it to consider the feedback, don't feel that you have to check with your editor for every single change, or even any of them. Some things you should be able to learn from. You were fully capable of writing an entire story by yourself, then you found the courage to send it to a complete stranger for his or her opinion. You have the ability inside of you to apply whatever your editor has told you to the story. You are writing the story, not your editor, so you don't need your editor's approval for everything. You can always make changes and resubmit it to your editor for a ""what do you think?"" look. +10\. If you feel your editor isn't doing anything for you, or you just don't ""click,"" you don't have to keep using an editor out of politeness. +Bear in mind that these are suggestions based on my personal experience and the experiences of a few editors that I have spoken with. Feel free to add or make corollaries to anything. Some of these things don't apply to all authors, or even most of them.

What is discussed here probably isn't a definitive list and may be an arguable list, but if the highlighting of these evokes thought or discussion among writers, the purpose of this essay is served. +Literary erotica is more fully developed than what we refer to on Literotica as the ""stroke"" vignette, which is a perfectly valid form of writing for this site—so this is, by no means, an assertion, that you ""have"" to write literary erotica. But if you do want to write literary erotica, I suggest you need to focus on three major elements ( **completed storyline, developed characters** , and a **rich sense of setting/time** ), which are good to concentrate on when writing any full story, and four ""enrichment"" elements ( **sexual heat, humor/pathos, surprise** , and **human condition profundity** ). +Before getting into the ""dos"" of writing literary erotica, it would probably be best to run by some of the ""don'ts,"" although I don't think there are nearly as many of these—or that they are as rigid—as some of the others offering critiques on Literotica seem to think there are. I do think the grammar, punctuation, and spelling should be proficient enough not to intrude on the reading of the story, so I don't think those should be ignored. But perfection is unattainable and isn't as necessary for posting a story to an Internet Web site, I don't think, than it is to publishing it in the _New Yorker_ (in which case, the magazine would be having it professionally edited anyway). So ""get an editor"" seems to be a good idea to me, but I don't see it as a show stopper to posting your stories. I also think the advice not to do a longwinded data drop of background to start off a story is always valid. And a common mistake of fledgling writers is to frontload stories with all sorts of unnecessary (at least at that point) material—and to include data that doesn't serve the story just to pad out wordage. If this is what you were doing, shorter is better than unfocused verbose. +Some of the other ""don'ts"" that crop up seem more conditional to me, though. The ""don't use this or that voice or tense"" seems capricious. A good story can be written in any voice or tense as long as they are consistent. It's also always good to show what you can too rather than telling it. This means that dialogue is important. But there's good literary erotica that has no dialogue in it at all. It's all a matter of writing well enough to bring it off. And the better writer you become, the more ""don't"" writing you can get away with—and thus be producing something new and different. +The glory of fiction is its variety and how a writer can creatively use the voices and tenses available to attain interest and fresh perspective. ""Don't ever use bad grammar and don't ever give physical measurements"" also fall flat in fiction in the realm of establishment of character through dialogue and/or narration. +I don't think many Pulitzer Prizes for fiction have been awarded to authors following staid writing formulas, and trend-setting best-sellers do just that—they set trends. They stand the expected on its head and flout the ""don'ts,"" and they stand out because they do this well and get away with it. +So, on to what I think are the major elements of constructing good literary erotica. +First and foremost is that the work needs to have a **complete storyline**. Anything trying to be more than a vignette needs a storyline, so this is both basic and nothing special for writing literary fiction. The work needs a beginning (a starting place), middle (change of some sort), and end (some sort of resolution—or purposeful nonresolution, if that's the discernible point of the story). When you apply this to literary fiction, though, you would earn extra points by skewing this formula without violating the need to have all three elements. Literary fiction often starts in the middle and catches up with whatever necessary beginning there is as you go along (which, actually, is what is currently popular to do with any story). And, it's also trendy to start at the end and then move to either the middle or the beginning. This mix-up is often used frequently in literary fiction because it's hard to do well—which means it's also something to try if you want what you write here to be considered literary erotica. +You'd think that in erotica characters were very important, but, in fact, erotica writers often give them short shrift. There's actually a good reason to do this. If you want the reader to identify with the character getting pleasure out of whatever happens in the story, you have a good excuse to cut description of the protagonist to the minimum to allow the reader to identify more easily (which is also a good reason to use the first person voice). But in literary fiction, taking the time and effort to deliver fully developed characters is very important. You can get around this conundrum in literary erotica by keeping the physical description of the protagonist minimal (while expanding on what the protagonist feels and thinks) but developing the other characters really well (but in a balanced way—it's not good to provide details that have no relevance to the story. The important elements should all be balanced really well in literary erotica—which is hard, but you have to do the hard well to be writing literary erotica). +The last (and least, I think) basic element of a good story and entry point to good literary erotica is providing a **rich sense of setting/time**. The setting and time period are nice to have for good, basic stories—and, of course, you need to give some sense of that in any well-written story. But a well-developed time period and setting are earmarks of literary fiction, and thus of literary erotica. +To get all of these basics in, of course, you are usually talking longer than shorter—but there has been superior short literary fiction—so that's just another challenge for a great writer. In any event, if you throw in unnecessary padding, you may be in the realm of literary, but you are draining away your grasp on ""good."" Everything you put into a story should serve that story directly—if only to provide indirection. +These are the basics, I think, that should be there in a story (for anything more than a vignette, really). Moving into the realm of literary erotica, though, I think literary erotic includes considerable amounts in pleasing/surprising combinations of four elements: **sexual heat, humor/pathos, surprise** , and **human condition profundity**. +Literotica does have a section on the nonerotic, and there certainly can be literary fiction that is nonerotic, but, sorry, literary erotica requires **sexual heat**. You don't have to deliver on a sex act (or more than one), but you have to sexually arouse, I think, or you aren't talking about erotica at all. Good literary erotica, I think, requires an underlying fabric of sexual arousal. And to be literary at all, I believe, this needs to be tasteful, whether or not subtle. If the sexual element is crude, I believe you've lost all claim to having a literary work at all. The sex can be rough and intense and still be something other than crude, I think. It's one of those things, like the Supreme Court said, that I'd just know when I saw it. +One element I'm not fully confident in as a required element but that has been included in all of what I've read (or written) thus far that qualifies in my mind as literary is **humor and/or pathos**. Literary fiction is known for usually containing pathos, but I've just found that all good literary fiction I've read has included one or both of these elements. I'll drop this off my ""necessary"" list if I ever find something that I think is both good and literary that doesn't contain one or the other. So, why not put it in until the jury is in? Or take the challenge and write something really good and literary that doesn't contain either. +I don't really consider any story good that doesn't include **surprise** , some element that makes me go ""wow."" And I've always found this in any literary fiction or literary erotica that I thought was good. Why would we think anything was good that didn't make us go ""wow""? Every good story has a good ""hook"" to it. This is usually the element of surprise in it. And it doesn't really have to be all that much of a surprise to the reader. That it's a surprise to the reader that the story delivered an element that the reader figured out as the ""best thing to happen"" is as much a surprise as delivery of an element that takes the reader by surprise. (But in both case the element must be satisfactory to the reader.) In my stories, I usually try to go for the twist ending. But there are other ""hooks"" that can be used to provide surprise, (But if I tried to enumerate them, they wouldn't be a surprise.) This is an area where the writer can show creative and superior writing ability—and set her/his stories apart from the run of the mill. +The necessary element to anything qualifying as literary, however, I think, is the element of including an aspect of **human condition profundity**. If I'm left with the thought that the story has explored or presented a basic element of the human condition that is greater than the story setting itself, I know I'm dealing with literary fiction. And it applies equally to literary erotica. This is what really lifts a story above stroke and into the realm of the reader shaking her/his head and saying ""umm, profound. A real story."" +These are the elements of literary erotica that spring to my mind. What would you add or delete—and why?" +181,End Goaling in Writing Erotica,sr71plt,How To,2006-08-27,2006-08-27,2022-01-04 08:28:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/end-goaling-in-writing-erotica,Observations on why/how of writing erotica for the Internet.,"['How To', 'Writing']",4.41,"Most all erotic stories are some variation of ""he and/or she stuck/enveloped it in/around her and/or him, and she and/or he moaned in pleasure."" Whether or not you can write a story worth posting depends on your imagination in finding new ""hooks"" (the unusual/unique concept that make your story interesting in relationship to what's generally available) and twists (surprises that arrest the reader's attention) and interesting and arousing circumstances and locations. For an erotic story, it also helps if you can write it in a way that gets the reader at least aroused sexually, and ideally very wet—and, best of all, motivated to get up from the computer and go stick/envelop it in/around her and/or him until she and/or he moans in pleasure (and then stick/envelop it in/around him and/or her again). +In experimenting with writing, devise in your mind some sense of plot—where the story came from (without getting bogged down in background) and where it's going and what it's going to do while it's getting there. Also think of the hooks and twists that are going to make it worthwhile writing. Then, put yourself in the place of one of the characters and tap it out on your computer. You can always go back and change and polish after you get something down—you also likely will come up with new, better twists and hooks while you write. +Do you just walk up to a stranger—or have a stranger walk up to you—and say ""Let's fuck,"" and that's how it starts? Never, or hardly ever, of course. And a story starting this way will fall flat into the ""B"" ranks as well. You need to spend a little time and effort—but not too much—in making the ""contract"" believable to the reader. +This is basically your fantasy at work. If it's not making you hot and aroused as you write it, it probably won't do that for anyone else and isn't worth pursuing further. And if it does make you hot and aroused, there's 90 percent justification for having written it in the first place. Go clean yourself up and start imagining the next turn-on story. +Read the story aloud. If the flow is awkward or if phrases stick out or words are repeated noticeably, this isn't good storytelling. Go back to Go. +Although there will be legitimate arguments about this, I suggest that you not spend too long getting to one of the good parts (and don't have just one good part). Quick gratification is the most popular in Internet erotica. If most readers wanted to prolong getting to the first climax, they'd buy their erotica in books, not read it on the Internet. You can play with foreplay for a subsequent climax after you've grabbed the reader with some form of early-on gratification. +And speaking of climax, it's generally important (although, if you are a really good writer, you can occasionally get away with a tease story). The reader is generally seeking climax by reading the story, and you should generally offer it to them. The climax of the story is also important, literally speaking. If it's a good story, it finishes on a twist or some form of closure—with the best stories, in literary terms, not relying on an orgasm to get the story stopped. +It will help greatly concerning whether it's worth posting, if you already have a good sense of sentence structure, grammar, spelling, punctuation, and word usage—the mechanics of writing—and are a naturally good storyteller. You'll lose the reader if your storytelling is bad, even if your plot and the images they invoke are good. Don't rely just on spell check (but use it). Use the dictionary for any word even half way questionable (and contemplate whether that's the best word to use in the specific context). One jarring or awkward word can throw a whole mood off. +A mistake made by many is in using scattered point of view—interchanging from paragraph to paragraph the perspective of different characters. A good story will be told from just one perspective (or will keep the perspectives quite separate; or will break all the rules brilliantly). For erotic stories, the first person perspective (""I""—being one of the characters) is much better than third person perspective (""he,"" ""she,"" ""they"")—although harder to write well—because it's much more personal (and a reader of erotica is, ipso facto, looking for something very, very personal)—and a good erotic story puts the reader in the action. +Most important is just to sit down at the computer and do it—taking it wherever it turns you on. You can decide what, if anything, to do with it afterward." +182,English 101: Parts of Speech,lindiana,How To,2005-03-28,2005-03-28,2022-01-04 08:28:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/english-101-parts-of-speech,The eight parts of speech made simple.,"['Adjective', 'Group Words', 'Made Simple', 'Make Statement', 'Noun', 'Part Sentence', 'Pronoun', 'Subject Predicate', 'Verb', 'Working Laptop']",4.17,"English 101 is brought to you by Lindiana, who holds her Bachelor of Science Degree in Secondary Education/English. +* * * * * +In the English language, there are eight parts of speech: +The Noun +The _noun_ is a word that is used to name a person, place, thing or idea. Nouns are classified as one of three types: proper/common, abstract/concrete or collective. +A _proper_ noun is the name of a particular person, place or thing. Proper nouns are always capitalized. +A _common_ noun is a word that does not name a particular person, place or thing. Examples of a common noun would be words like town, house and lady. +An _abstract_ noun names a quality, characteristic, or idea. In other words, it is a word used to describe something abstract and arbitrary. +A _concrete_ noun names an object that can be perceived by one of the five senses. +A _collective_ noun names a group. +The Pronoun +The _pronoun_ is a word used in place of one or more nouns. Pronouns fall into one of the following categories: personal, reflexive, intensive, relative, interrogative, demonstrative and indefinite. + _Personal_ pronouns are used in place of a proper noun. The personal pronouns are as follows: I, me, you, he, him, she, her, it, we, us, they and them. + _Possessive_ pronouns are used to indicate possession: _my_ book, _his_ house, _their_ dream. + _Reflexive_ and _intensive_ pronouns are used conjunctly. They are words combined with either self or selves and can be used _reflexively_ (the action of the verb is directed BACK at the subject) or _intensively_ (emphasizes back upon the subject). +Examples: +Reflexive-Justin cut himself. +Intensive-Justin himself was cut. + __ + _Relative_ pronouns are used to introduce subordinate clauses. A subordinate clause is a group of words that contains a subject and predicate and is used as part of a sentence but cannot stand alone as a sentence by itself. The relative pronouns are as follows: who whom, which, that and whose. + _Interrogative_ pronouns are used in questions. The interrogative pronouns are as follows: who, whom, which, what and whose. + _Demonstrative_ pronouns are used to specifically point out certain persons or things. The demonstrative pronouns are: this, these, that and those. + _Indefinite_ pronouns are pronouns that do not fall into one of the classes as listed above. Most, but not all, indefinite pronouns express the idea of quantity. Here is a list of the most commonly used indefinite pronouns: all, each, most, other, another, either, neither, several, any, everybody, nobody, some, anybody, everyone, none, someone, anyone, few, no one, somebody, both, many, one and such +The Adjective +The _adjective_ is a word used to modify or describe a noun or pronoun. In this instance, to modify means to limit or make more definite. This can be done in one of three ways: +1.) Telling what kind: + _green_ eyes, _small_ town +2.) Pointing out which one: + _that_ man, _this_ classroom +3.) Telling how many: +s _everal_ poets, _fourteen_ freshmen +The normal position of an adjective is directly before the noun or pronoun it is modifying. Adjectives may be used after however and often are used as such by writers. +A _predicate adjective_ is separated from the noun or pronoun it modifies by a verb. +Also note that the same word can be used in different capabilities. Some pronouns and nouns can also function as adjectives. Most of the _indefinite pronouns_ can also be used as adjectives. +Example: Both girls wanted to go to the dance. (Both as adjective) +Both of you want it? (Both as pronoun) +Here is an example of a noun functioning as an adjective: litter box +In this instance the word litter is being used as an adjective, not a noun. +The Verb +It is commonly known that the verb is the action word. The verb in a sentence can also help to make a statement. The action described may be physical or mental. +Transitive vs Intransitive Verbs +Action verbs may or may not take or refer to an object. Those verbs that are linked to an object are called transitive: example, He finished the poem. Those verbs that can express an action without a noun are called intransitive: example, The writer quit. +Some intransitive verbs help to make the sentence complete by expressing a state or condition. These verbs are linked to the word that it is describing. Therefore, they are called linking verbs. The most common linking verb is the word be and its forms: am, is, are, was, were, be, being, been and phrases that end in a form of be. Other common linking verbs are: appear, grow, seem, stay, become, look, smell, taste, feel, remain and sound. +Helping verbs are also used. These are verbs that help the main verb to express action or make a statement. The common helping verbs are: am, has, can (may) have, are, had, could (would, should) be, is, can, could (would, should) have, was, may, will (shall) have been, were, will (shall) be, might have, do, will (shall) have, might have been, did, has (had) been, must, have, can (may) be, must have and must have been. +The Adverb +The adverb is used to modify a verb, adjective or another adverb. It functions much like an adjective does for a noun. It usually will tell how, when, where or to what extent the action of the verb is done. Some adverbs are used mostly to emphasize. On occasion, nouns will be used adverbially. An example: Lindiana taught us yesterday. +Here the word yesterday is being used as an adverb, not a noun. +The Preposition +The preposition is used to show the relation of a noun or pronoun to some other word within the sentence. Here is an example: She enjoys writing **in** the library more than working **on** her laptop. +In the above sentence, in and on are prepositions. In is used to link the ideas of writing and the library. On is used to link the ideas of working and laptop. +Prepositions always appear in a phrase and are usually located at the beginning. +The noun or pronoun at the end of the phrase is called the object of the preposition. As well, a group of words may function as a preposition. Following is a list of common prepositions: about, at, but (meaning except), into, throughout, above, before, by, like, to, across, behind, concerning, of, toward, after, below, down, off, under, against, beneath, during, on, underneath, along, beside, except, over, until, amid, besides, for, past, unto, among, between, from , since, up, around, beyond, in, through, upon, with, within and without. +The Conjunction +The conjunction is used to join words or groups of words. There are three kind of conjunctions: _coordinating, correlative_ and _subordinating._ +The coordinating conjunctions are as follows: and, but, or, nor and for. +The correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs. They are as follows: either/or, neither/nor, both/and, not only/but (also) and whether/or. +The subordinating conjunctions are used to begin subordinating clauses. A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and predicate and is used as a part of the sentence. A subordinate clause is a clause that cannot stand alone as a sentence in and of itself. The following is a list of the most commonly used subordinating conjunctions: after, before, provided, unless, although, how, since, until, as, if, than, when, as much as, in order that, that, where, because, inasmuch as, though and while. +The Interjection +The last part of speech is the interjection. It is a word used to express emotion and has no grammatical relation to other words in the sentence. Common examples we see used often are: Oh! Ah! Ouch! Alas! +There you go. The eight parts of speech made simple. + _Reference: Warriner's English Grammar and Composition, Complete Course_" +183,Entering a Themed Literotica Contest,oggbashan,How To,2007-05-21,2007-05-21,2022-01-04 08:28:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/entering-a-themed-literotica-contest,How to decide whether to enter a themed Literotica contest.,"['Author', ""Author'S Hangout"", 'Competition', 'Contest', 'Last Place', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing How-To']",4.55,"* * * * * + _Copyright Oggbashan May 2007_ +The author asserts the moral right to be identified as the author of this work. +* * * * * +I assume, for a start, that you write, and you write and post on Literotica. If you don't write, why are you reading this? If you do write, and don't post your work on Literotica, this essay won't help you. +But if you do write, and have already posted on Literotica, or are thinking of posting some of your writing on Literotica, then this essay might be some help. +Why should I enter a themed Literotica competition? +If you post your work in Literotica, or elsewhere on the internet, presumably you would like your work to be read, appreciated and perhaps have some feedback from the readers. Literotica is a good site for feedback and comments even if some of the responses are irritating, uninformed and just plain rude. The other, intelligent, responses should more than compensate for the unwelcome ones. +However, the length of exposure your work gets is severely limited. Once it is off the first couple of pages of new stories the views, votes and comments reduce to a trickle. Unless you write and post a new story several times a week, your work will be lost in the mass of stories here unless you are fortunate enough to attain a high place in the Top List for the category. +However, if you enter a themed Literotica competition, that entry will be linked from the front page for weeks. You will continue to get reads, votes and attention until the competition is decided. If you win? There's real money. Even if you don't win, you story has still been noticed far more than it would normally be. If readers like the entry, they are likely to look at your other stories, no matter how old, and all your work gets attention. +Is all the attention welcome? +No. There is no avoiding it. Competition entries attract some people who enjoy criticising authors' work unfairly. Among the reasonable responses there will be some 1 votes; some unpleasant comments, feedback, emails and PMs. +But that is true of any work posted on Literotica. Entering a competition increases the likelihood of all forms of attention. +When can I write an entry? +The entry must be submitted during the time specified for the competition. It doesn't matter whether you wrote it the day before, or the year before, as long as you have not posted it on Literotica before the competition. If you think of an Earth Day story in August, you can write it then and post it when the next Earth Day competition comes around. +The list of themed competitions for the year is posted in the sticky thread ""Welcome Authors! Please Read"" at the top of the Author's Hangout. Unless Laurel and Manu think of a new theme, then the same competitions run each year. You should have no excuse for ignoring Valentine's Day, the most popular theme of the year. +What is on theme? +The theme is stated in the competition rules. If your story isn't really on that theme it might be rejected, but if not, the readers are likely to punish you with low marks and adverse comments. For the ""How-To"" contest, the work must be a ""How-To"" and must be submitted in the ""How-To"" category. That's not difficult is it? Apart from How-To, a nod in the direction of the theme is often enough to qualify the entry. +My muses won't cooperate. +However you name it, sometimes we all get writer's block, lack of inspiration, inertia, laziness but if we deserve the name of author we should have techniques for dealing with the problem. Read some of the excellent How-Tos that already exist. +Write. Try to write something on theme. If it won't work, then perhaps this particular contest isn't for you, but if you have been aware all year round that the themed contests will come, in order, then an Earth Day idea could be developed months ahead. +The Author's Hangout Last Place ™ Contest +The Last Place Contest is a piece of silliness to remind us that popularity isn't always awarded to the best writing. The rules of the Last Place ™ Contest include a requirement that the writer of an entry for the main Literotica contest must declare themselves a contestant in the Last Place tm Contest. If you want to hide your head in shame, there is no need to declare your low score. If you want the acclaim of fellow authors, then perhaps Last Place is for you. You don't get anything other than the title of Last Place winner. +Money +The Literotica themed contests have real money as prizes. If you want to earn money with your writing, then posting it on Literotica might be unwise. If you do win a Literotica contest, that might help on your author's resume with some publishers (probably not if you want to have children's fiction published). +However the reality of the Literotica themed contests is that winning, even with a brilliant story, is very much a lottery that can be affected by factors beyond your control. Even winning Last Place might be snatched away from you by a sweep of ineligible votes, moving your rating from the dire to the mediocre. You can't guarantee winning. +Conclusion +You will get more attention, not just for your competition entry, but for your whole body of work if you enter a Literotica themed contest. Some of the attention will be unwelcome, some even unpleasant, but that can happen with any work posted anywhere on the internet. There is a price to be paid for fame. +Go for it! If you haven't entered a themed competition before, try the next one. Your writing will be read by many more people on Literotica than ever before." +184,Erogenous Zones,scienceguy1970,How To,2011-09-29,2011-09-29,2022-01-04 08:28:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/erogenous-zones-2,How to find and excite erogenous zones.,"['Erogenous', 'Massage', 'Tease', 'Temperature', 'Touch']",4.39,"The erogenous zones of the body are areas which heighten sexual excitement and increase additional sensory input. It is important to remember that the brain is the ultimate sex organ. All of the peripheral sensory input is interpreted by the brain as pleasurable or offensive and our desires are adjusted accordingly. +We have 5 classical senses, sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. Everyone has associations of pleasant and offensive senses. A person may have a favorite dress or shirt due to an experience they associate with that particular piece of clothing. When they look at it or think about it the feelings return, when they wear it they open up that state of mind again. The woman in a power suit may feel more confident giving a presentation at work, but will feel awkward at a dance club. A dress that hugs her curves and moves with her will make her feel sexy and desirable on the dance floor, but draws uncomfortable stares at the business meeting. +All of the erogenous zones must be activated by setting the right frame of mind. Using the senses to put someone in a relaxed and accepting state of mind will allow the partner to build upon the sensations they are sharing to heighten awareness and pleasure. This is why first dates are always awkward for some people, there is no history to build upon. Everyone has different interests, likes and dislikes, if possible choose a setting that will be nonthreatening while you discover more about each other. Always be honest, but don't go too fast and scare her away. +Touch has at least 4 different qualities. There are receptors for light touch, deep touch, temperature and pain. Most people will respond to light touch and it is the least threatening of the 4 sensations. Simply holding her hand will start to build a state of mind that is accepting and responding to you. Stroking the skin and massage can also be used once she is comfortable with your touch. Light kisses are more sensual, but require a state of mind that accepts such intimacy, this may be difficult to reach with some people and easier with others. All of these can be considered light touch. +To begin with, distant points are the easiest to be comfortable with, the hands and sometimes feet. Our hands are how we feel the world, therefore they have lots of nerve receptors. A tight grasp or loose grasp says a great deal about you without any words. Stroking certain places while holding hands can stimulate some of the nerve bundles. The space between thumb and forefinger is webbed and has a softer texture than that of the palm or back of the hand, this makes it ideal for gentle rubbing to heighten arousal from the hands. There is also a place just over the radial pulse that does the same. Between the other fingers are similar spots, but they are awkward to reach with normal hand holding. Intertwining of fingers may allow some additional stimulation to these areas. The palms and fingertips are very sensitive areas. However, they are used to feeling light touch during our usual day to day activities. By using a kiss or light touch with the tongue in an intimate setting they can become resensitized. The wetness of tongue or lips adds a small temperature change that heightens the physical touch, and the intimacy of the kiss adds a psychological edge to the movement thus turning a normal sensory area into a prime erogenous zone. Anyone who doubts this should have their partner lick gently along the creases of their palm during their next cuddling session and see what happens. +The feet are historically something of fetishism. Many people have a psychological block against the sensitive zones of the feet because of this. Most people stand on their feet all day and keep them in socks and shoes making them sweaty and dirty. The feet can be a very special and sexy part of the body. Any guy who sees a pair of feet that are well manicured, often with painted toenails, will immediately assume that the lady attached cares for all of her body in the same manner. Whether it is conscious or subconscious she has just become sexy to him. Many women and men feel better about themselves after being pampered with a foot massage or pedicure. Something about cleaning of the feet helps to cleanse our psyche and prepare for more intimate social encounters. Start with a bath or foot wash and follow that with a gentle massage to get the feet warmed up. In this case the deeper massage pressure will help loosen up tight areas from the stress of the day. Some lotion to soften the skin will aid in promoting sensitivity. Do be careful, since some people are ticklish, light touch can turn sour quickly if your partner is too sensitive. +Just like with the hands the softer skin at the base of the toes is extremely sensitive to touch and temperature. A skilled tongue or hand can relax and heighten sensation at the same time. The sole of the foot is the center of attention, it will relax and stimulate. The Achilles tendon is also rather sensitive once the foot has been prepped. Toes and fingers also allow psychological play to be added to the purely physical nerve stimulation. By gently sucking on them you convey a message of hungry desire similar to a deep sensuous kiss. Oral manipulation of the digits will often be mentally referred to more sensitive organs as a taste of things to come. +If the hands and feet have done their job she should be open to closer contact. We can slide up with light strokes or gentle massage to the joints. Knee and elbow have a softer patch of skin at the bend. This area is susceptible to stimulation for most but is not super sensitive for everyone. Combining this with manipulation of the hands works well to keep the proper frame of mind and piggy back the sensations so that they are amplified. The knee works a little better than the elbow and for those who enjoy control it puts the stimulator in a submissive position. +The thigh area has a great deal of psychological sensitivity, it is the approach to the most intimate place a person has. The inner thigh is more sensitive to light touch while the posterior thigh area is good for massage. Junction points where there are creases in the skin form a line of sensitivity in most cases. The crease between thigh and buttock is no exception. It is highly sensitive to massage and light touch. If she is receptive to this stimulation most all erogenous areas will open up to you and you will be able to give her an earthshattering experience. In the front the area over the femoral artery like the radial pulse area may be stimulated. Motions that move in time to her pulse with amplify her bodies own flow and increase the sensations within her. +Before pleasing the genitals we need to move back up to the top. Arms, like legs, are sensitive at the junction points. The underarm area, called the axilla, is quite sensitive. Some may prefer to skip this area due to the large amount of hair growing there. A simple solution is to shave, men and women can do this. I personally prefer smooth skin to work with on the body, the skin is more sensitive and pressure can be applied with greater accuracy. Some people don't like shaving and so you should discuss your preferences with your partner. Back to the axilla, for women this area is extremely sensitive due to the tail of breast tissue that runs into the area. If your partner can find it, then under the arm is the first area of the breast to be stroked. +When the axilla has been explored you will notice that her breasts are beginning to swell. To keep the mind properly focused for a breast orgasm there needs to be a smooth transition down from the axilla along the outer edges of the breasts. This can be done in alternating fashion or simultaneously with both hands. The edges of the breast are just as sensitive in certain places as the central areola. The crease along the underside is one of the more sensitive areas. Since it is usually a fold that is warmed by her body, I find that cooling it off by licking and lifting followed by a gentle blowing motion will cause chills. Alternating that with a warm tongue can drive some women with sensitive breasts wild. The cleavage area is similarly sensitive to touch and temperature play. +My preferred method of reaching the sensitive areola, which she is hopefully begging for at this point, is to circle the breast in tighter and tighter circles. The end result is a teasing closeness with the brain acknowledging the inevitable conclusion and ramping up the sensitivity of those areas. When reaching the areola and nipple surface rubbing or licking will continue the prescribed motions and excite her greatly. Sudden intense stimulation will be useful once she is breathing heavily and her nipples have fully engorged. Some women like being pinched or nibbled, all of them like being suckled. Start by circling to a very light touch of your tongue at the tip of the nipple. Open your mouth and wait for her body to notice the decrease in sensation, she will likely arch up slightly trying to bring herself closer to you. In a quick motion press your mouth to her breast with it as wide as you can and suck it into your mouth. For large breasted women bringing your hands to the sides of her breast and pressing her breast up into your mouth helps. Then suck and pull her breast into your mouth as if you were starving for her milk. Spend some time suckling and swirling your tongue over her, then tease and prepare the other side for the same treatment. Occasionally you can get a sensitive woman to orgasm just from this manipulation of her breasts. +Moving upwards we come to the head and neck area. These are the most psychologically sensitive spots as most women are very aware of their appearance. Gently touching and stroking of facial areas shows interest and intimacy. Particular areas of interest are the ears, under the chin, nape of the neck. The ears are quite sensitive and stroking or kissing them will tease and heighten expectations. In addition suggestions can be whispered which will add to desire and can foreshadow coming events allowing the brain to ramp up those areas sensitivity. The chin and neck area are in close conjunction with oral delights and can heighten the feelings evoked during sensuous or passionate kissing. These combined with kissing will open doors to new levels of desire. The nape of the neck offers some control and gives the woman the option of giving herself over to her partner. While sensitive to touch it is the control this area gives to head position that allows the psychology of the kiss or massage to place the receiver in the submissive posture. Once in this posture they are able to turn themselves over to receiving new pleasures and enjoying them without the worry or anxiety of what they should do next. +The mouth is a whole organ in itself. The kiss is a very intimate gesture and can express longing, warmth, control and a whole host of other feelings. A firm yet tender kiss is the least intrusive and can merge into more passionate forms if your partner is willing. If she is already longing for your kiss this provides a message of strength and security. To arouse passion and tease as part of foreplay, gentle probing kisses or light nibbling of the lip is recommended. As passion increases the tongue can explore sensitive areas just inside the lips and with deeper kisses along the edge of the tongue and underneath the tongue. Only the most gifted can reach up to the roof of their partner's mouth to explore that area. As a general rule all of the mouth is sensitive and will respond accordingly. The mouth also has an added bonus, Taste! A simple pre-kiss mint or drink of your partner's favorite flavor or a flavor that means something to you both will add a zing to a kiss that is already loaded. +Last thing above the neck is the scalp and hair. This is not something that works in all settings but certain times it can be intense. Wash her hair, the massaging motion and the relaxation of having a lover wash your hair is very exciting in a close and snuggly kind of way. It helps to relax the stress of any impending headaches and move from busy work day to relaxed intimacy. +The trunk area includes stomach and back. Back tends to respond to both light touch and deeper massage. The lower back in particular can be very sensitive to massage and manipulation. On the stomach there is the navel. This can be a fun and frolicking adventure, like licking a favorite food or drink from it, or more sensual with kissing and stroking around the area. In addition the line along the rectus muscle is often sensitive to touch and stroking this can be incorporated into motion from one area to another. Do be careful as some people are ticklish in this area. +The buttocks are always fun. People love to know that their ass looks good. Stroking and massage work well here. The crease between buttocks is again very sensitive and if your partner is not psychologically opposed leads to the anus. The anus is arguably the most sensitive area there is. Teasing this area on the surface will stimulate excitement in all of the adjacent areas, just make sure your partner is ok with it before seeking to enter. If they are then the sphincter here can be stroked and rubbed to great effect. For guys the prostate is located just an inch or two inside and feels like a small walnut. If your partner rubs this area you will see an increase in seminal fluid and swelling of the head of his penis. Anal orgasms can be achieved with the right combination of touching. +For the males the genital area has several places to concentrate on. Just between the anus and base of the penis is a sensitive area and just below the head of the penis along the front ridge. Both of these areas are touch and temperature sensitive. The ridge around the head of the penis is very sensitive, useful when beginning but it can over stimulate if teased too long. The shaft is more sensitive to massage than touch, some would argue that the ridge is sensitive to both. The testicles are light touch sensitive and very temperature sensitive. Like the breasts they must be handled with care and planning. +The ladies have a few more places in the genital area. The outer and inner labia are very sensitive to touch. The hood and clit are sometimes too sensitive to direct touch, but light pressure and massage of this organ can build multiple and prolonged orgasm if handled correctly. The outer edge of the vagina is where most of the sensory nerves are located and thus the most sensitive area. Slightly stretching this outer ring will provide a fullness and sensation of penetration which is the goal of the sexually charged brain. Just inside are 2 structures to be aware of. First the ""G-spot"" is just an inch or two inside and can be reached by curling a finger up. It feels like a little rough patch of skin. Like the prostate in the male, this area will increase excitement and sensitivity of the entire genital area. The last is harder to reach, the cervix. This is the extension of the uterus into the vaginal canal. Most women are familiar with it from pap smears, which can be painful. However, when rubbed with a finger or penis it provides a deep seated pleasure. +Each of these areas can be manipulated with fingers and tongue. For additional sensory variety temperature manipulation can also be used. Vary the source for the best results. Simple things like sucking on an ice cube to cool your mouth before sucking on her breast will confuse and amplify the nerve signals. Follow that with a drink of something hot and then suckle the other one. Heating pads or other heated massage aids are great for loosening up tight muscles and making her feel warm and relaxed. In contrast, ice or cool items tend to tighten up the area in question. For the truly adventurous purchase a glass dildo which can be heated or cooled as much as you are comfortable with. +Once trust has been established the absence of a sense will heighten the other senses. A simple blindfold will set all of the surface skin areas on alert. Hearing will also sharpen, but the mind will need to interpret the sounds and may under the right settings wander into truly fantastic realms with the simplest sounds or suggestions." +185,The Erogenous Zones,Vudu Blanco,How To,2003-09-24,2003-09-24,2022-01-04 08:40:00,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-erogenous-zones,Those points where sensibility is bigger.,"['Circular Movements', 'Clitoris', 'Erogenous Zones', 'Inside Thighs', 'Palm Hand', 'Part Body', 'Putting Pressure', 'Sensibility', 'Tongue Tip', 'Zone']",3.84,"The erogenous zones are those points where sensibility is bigger; And caresses can do that a woman become excited faster and more intensely. You must not jump with one to other of these zones, because the entire body is sensitive. It is better to attend to these zones within the erotic games specially. A good idea to discover the more sensitive zones of a woman's body is to give a sensual massage. Preparing a pleasant ambient and exploring without hurries each centimeter of skin. Discovering is more fun that learn. Besides, no everybody have same likes. But to stimulate the erogenous zones is not only a game before the penetration; Rather you must caress her during the penetration to increase the power of his orgasms and after in order that she feel at ease, relaxed and going preparing it slowly for a second penetration. +Some of the erogenous zones do not work well in cold. Some previous excitation is necessary than stimulate the capillaries that there is below the skin. That does that they become really sensitive. +The head and the neck. +Even that it sound a little stupid and snobbish but a woman's principal erogenous point is its mind and the form to stimulate it is to make her laugh, that she feel comfortable and desired. +A massage in the hair with the fingertips is a good way to begin. It is not erotic, but yes is very relaxing. +The nape is supersensitive to the caresses and the kisses. Specially the line of growth of hair. What normally calls the courage's hairs because if you pull of them itself hurts very much. It is necessary to use that sensibility positively. Rubbing with the fingertip, kissing softly or passing the tongue's tip. Also it can be blown to hair, doing that hair be pulled up. The ears are sensitive in the rear, specially in the beginning and in the border outside. Also the ear's lobe is supersensitive and it can be sucked or nibbling . Whispering to the heard flirtatious remarks or little smuttiness can increase excitation. Telling her the beautiful that she is, it very much that she excites you ... +The line of carotid a light sensibility, so that it will be necessary to imitate Dracula, has to kiss and to nibble the neck, getting down to the cavity of the clavicle that also has a light sensibility. +The cheeks and the cheekbones have certain sensibility to the caresses, but strong point is the mouth. There are many fellows of kisses, and not only the lips are sensitive but as well the inside of the mouth. But the more sensitive zone is the midst of the superior lip close to the border,, it is easy to nibble it softly or to grate on it with the fingers or tongue's tip. +The back. +Moreover of typical massage in the shoulders; you can stimulates all spinal column putting pressure on softly and moving down. But the more sensitive zones to the caresses are between shoulder blades and at the lumbar, just zone before of than begin the ass. +On the sacred bone, that place where the ass's cheeks stick, one especial point is, but if it is touched with too much toughness it provokes a disagreeable sensation. best way is to pass one only finger for the beginning of the butt end's split, of down to up. +Also is normal to find at this zone some fine and transparent fluff that can stimulate itself of same manner than in her never. +The bust and the abdomen. +Descending the trachea giving little kisses uses to work nicely, standing up some seconds where the clavicles stick and begin the sternum. This is useful for like advertisement that the following will be busts. Increasing desire and the anxiety that you play with her breasts and preparing her mentally. This effect of anticipation can be obtained in almost any part of the body, delaying caresses, moving slowly toward a sensitive zone and when it look like you go for arriving to turn back. Also it can be obtained using words. +In the middle of an intense excitation whatever you say to she has an approximately hypnotic power, the words arrive directly to her mind's center, as soon as you can go whispering them the way whereon you want to touch her, as you like that part of her body ... +The breasts are extremely sensitive and it can be gotten that a woman have orgasms only stimulating her breasts. Here almost all this one permitted; Caressing, amassing, pinches and soft bites, kissing, sucking ... what you think up . Only your avoid pressing with too much force, because the only thing that you will get is a sharp pain, equivalent to a kick in the testicles. +The more sensitive zones of the busts are the nipples and the breast's base, most of all in the nearby part to the armpit. One can ascend from the base making spirals with the finger to arrive at the nipple and to caress it in circles or to lick it. Another original thing is to suck the nipples to put them completely hard and sensitive. When still they are humid of saliva you blow over nipples; Doing that she tremble of pleasure. +Exist a light sensibility in the armpits and in the sides, only is necessary to be careful with tickles. So like in the line that goes down from the busts to the belly button. +The zone in the form of half moon that it is below the navel is especial but most people ignores it. All that zone answers very well to the caresses, all over the line of the elastic band of the panties. Passing a finger lifting up the elastic can make her vibrate, because the natural sensibility of the zone increases when unfastening the pressure of the elastic. And also the effect of anticipation for the proximity of the pubis is. +Arms and legs. +The arms perhaps be zone minus sensitive, but always can descend to the hands giving little kisses for the internal part of the arm, to delay some instants at the cubit's cavity and arrive slowly to the palm of the hand. The hand is an erogenous zone very important, but we are accustomed to using to touch softly and that this one obvious that he is very exciting. But little people lets that her hands be the ones that receive the caresses. The palm of the hand and the fingers are supersensitive, silly games can do themselves, going over the hand's lines, giving little bites or sucking fingers. +Too is good idea go over the arm from the hand to the shoulder to end up in the bust. +It is not necessary to follow a flat scheme with the caresses. One can return to the same zone several times, or to stimulate several zones at the same time or the same one of several different forms. +Some people have an especial fetichism for the feet; But truth is the feet that have little sensibility, that it is centered in the arch of the foot and in the thumb. Giving a soft massage at these zones can be a relaxing and fun game. It is necessary to ascend pressing softly for the instep of the foot to come to the thumb, always in ascending sense. One can play with the fingers of the feet, the same as with the fingers of the hands. The zone of the articulations of the fingers must be massaged in circles, changing the course of turning each few movements. +The inside of the thighs is a very especial zone, respond very well to all type of caresses. When a woman is right now plenty of excited, the inside of the thighs becomes supersensitive and the movement of blood produces a curious effect. The heft of blood of the capillaries deviates to the inside of the thighs, doing that temperature increase sufficient. While the outward side gets cold . +Also in the thighs one can play plenty of with the effect of anticipation for its proximity with the genital. +For example, before tonguing the vagina, thighs can be kissed and going ascending while the tongue's tip makes filigrees. +You can establish her on your knees and separating her legs when she be really excited. And then beginning to go over her thighs slowly with the hands, beginning for the knees and ascending while you kiss the nape or the shoulders to her. Each time the hands more near her groins and when she believe that these upon the verge of arriving, you descend again and you begin again this time arriving a bit more near but doing it to have a fit of anger a bit more. Her body and her mind will be impatient well then your you get on her vagina once and for all, that doing the things slowly is good, but if you overdo it, the odds are that the girl send you along to the shit for bore. +The inside of the thighs can be stimulated of many manners, it is necessary to use imagination. Caressing up and down, in circles, to amass very softly ... +Genital and vicinity. +You have just to ascend the thigh. The edge of the hand, among the thumb and the index finger, encircling the vagina fits in groins. That permits touching you four zone keys one-handed. The thumb, may touch the pubis softly and the clitoris, while the index fingers and heart make circles in the perineum. Also the hand's edge presses softly the groin and the exterior of the vaginal labia and the inside of the thigh amasses the palm of the hand. +Many men commit a basic error when they masturbate to a woman. They do it of mechanical form and at full speed; Centering round the clitoris only. They masturbate to a woman as they would do it with themselves. One more time, is necessary to take the things quietly and use the imagination to explore all of the possibilities. +A little trick: Before going direct to for the clitoris; You must use the tip of two fingers to massage a zone 1 or 2 centimeters on top of the rising of the clitoris. Do it of up to down even arriving to the clitoris's root. Also of effect of anticipation, you will manage to push an extra quantity of blood to the clitoris; Doing that the clitoris is swollen completely even to get out of its hood and than this hypersensitive. +Another interesting way of stimulating the clitoris is to use the articulation of the thumb instead of the fingers. I refer to the hand's zone where the thumb sticks with the wrist. Also to have a more big surface, it has more mobility than the fingers. Also to rub up and down or in circles, now you can make feel a pendular movement with the wrist. Something like a wave whereon the pressure on the clitoris goes varying constantly. Also, using the thumb's articulation sets free the fingers of the same hand at a perfect position to explore vaginal labia and caressing the entrance of the vagina as the same time as the clitoris. Whereas that the another hand also is free for go over the body with caresses. +As well you can give little light blows with the finger in the clitoris's peak. Like if you send a message in Morse. This technique is that to taste it to do correctly, if it is done too much strong or during too much time it can prove to be disagreeable and even painful. The appropriate are fast light blows during less than 30 seconds. And no directly over the tip, but a little underneath, that every light blow lift up the clitoris a bit. After that 30 seconds revert to touching it normally or even do not touch it during some seconds. When you lead some minutes touching her normally you can repeat. +Any form that you use for to stimulate the clitoris, remember not to be boring in the rhythm. Pass of fast to slowly and of circular movements to linear. Do it of form unpredictable for that each change surprise her. And when you believe that herself this one accustoming reverts to changing . +The vaginal labia and the vagina's entrance are sensitive but no as much as the clitoris. It is necessary to fidget with them, to separate them lightly with the fingertip for next to separate it completely to explore each crease and to turn them to assemble pressing softly. Putting pressure on the vagina's entrance as if you want to penetrate it but without doing it, only to fit well the fingertip and to move them in circles, extending vaginal flow and using it like lubricant. +The G point finds within the vagina; To some four centimeters in the wall outside. The best way to stimulate it is penetration from behind. Mainly in the posture of the tablespoons. In position fetal with the man embracing the woman from behind. This posture makes the penis to enter into a very oblique angle, rubbing intensely counter to the G point and leaving free the hands to touch the clitoris at the same time. +Also two fingers in the vagina to stimulate it directly can be introduced; Lubricating them well not to cause tears to happen. Introducing only two first phalanges, the fingertips will be left on the approximate zone. The G point is a slight bulkiness of half centimeter of diameter, the problem is than it likes playing on to the hide-and-seek, only it emerges when one is ringing directly; If you pass too much fast envelope its continues to be flat. If you have found it and you stop touching it also disappear . +The best is to do a movement of fan with the fingertip, and that the woman go giving intrusions, because in many women the G point is not centered, rather it can find deviated even a centimeter on the right-hand side or left hand. +This technique can do that some women feel uncomfortable because not like that they penetrate them with the fingers, and because besides when pressing the G point, also is pressed the urinary bladder doing that they enter a terrible desires to piss. That gets solved with a piss before beginning so that the bladder be empty. +Stimulating at the same time the clitoris and the G point is a warranty of an intense chain of consecutive orgasms. The best is to touch the G point with the fingers while you suck and tongue the clitoris. +The perineum is the no man's land, it is that part among the vagina and the ass, that it does not reach to be no one of two things. Most people does not know the sensibility of the perineum. Pressing in circular movements a very strong sensation is obtained. +The anus has plenty of sensibility, but can prove to be uncomfortable for a lot of people. The best is to ask around before beginning if she likes that caress her anus or approaching slowly so that it have opportunity to say to than no, before she come across a finger in the ass by surprise; And you with a slap in the face. It is necessary to caress it in circles with the tip of a finger without trying to enter." +186,Erogenous zones: The Joy of Teasing,Lovepotion69,How To,2003-08-08,2003-08-08,2022-01-04 08:28:15,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/erogenous-zones-the-joy-of-teasing,Find them and work them.,"['Erogenous Zones', 'Exploring Bodies', 'Hot Spots', 'Love Play', 'Partner Body', 'Partner Face', 'Running Nails', 'Time Exploring', 'Top Toe', 'Trail Fingers']",4.58,"The key goes into the door, the door swings open and you both stumble into the lobby. Neither being able to keep your hands off each other. Hungry kisses are being exchanged while you struggle with getting rid of that jacket, and she slams the door shut with her foot. You tumble into the bedroom and fall onto the fresh linen sheets. You’re both rearing to go. +Depending on the mood you and your partner are in, you can now choose to either: +a) rip each other’s clothes off, start banging away and getting the release you both want within 20mins of entering the home. +b) prolong everything by spending time exploring each other’s bodies, and then when neither of you can take it anymore; have steamy breathtaking sex. +Now, if you’re anything like me you’d choose answer b). I personally love exploring my partner’s body. Bodies are to me beautiful and fascinating. They’re like instruments waiting to be tuned in the right way. Like an instrument it’ll respond in different ways depending on the way you play it, and who is playing it. When two musicians play the same piece on the same piano, you can still notice the differences in how the instrument responds. Same goes for your body. +I remember one night with my first boyfriend. We were sitting opposite each other talking, and as usual my fingers automatically caressed his arm. I started to trail my fingers lightly over his whole arm, from the shoulder all the way down to his fingertips. As I could see he was enjoying it, so I continued. I held out his arm and continued to trace my hand along it, exchanging trailing the whole hand, the fingers and nails. I also varied the pressure and took note of where he seemed to be most sensitive. When finding that spot I’d work it for a bit longer, then continue and then back again. At times I would kiss the arm or spot. Now and then I’d blow on the spot lightly, and when he started to really get excited I’d run my tongue over it. +I remember him getting more and more excited, and he began to squirm on the bed. When I ran my nails with much more pressure than before, he suddenly started to moan and gasp loudly. After catching his breath he just looked at me with a perplexed expression, and said he just had an orgasm. I just laughed at him, but he insisted he had one, and that it hadn’t been the regular type. It had been one where he didn’t ejaculate, but had felt it throughout his body. He told me he had never cum that way before, with nobody touching his genitals, and he had only before had that type of orgasm by himself. That’s when I realised how many secrets the human body really hides. +Since that day I’ve loved to explore my partner’s body, from top to toe. + **Head** +Many women love it when their man plays with their hair. I don’t know exactly why we love it, but damn it feels nice! Run your hands through your partner’s hair. Play with it. It’s not for nothing certain countries praise long hair on women as one of their most feminine and erotic features. A scalp massage will also do wonders for anyone. It’s very relaxing, and combined with washing your partner’s hair it’s even better. Then of course, a little tug while being in the throws of passion always works wonders... + **Face** +First things first; don’t lick your partner’s face like you’re a dog. A friend of mine got into the habit of doing it when he saw me. What can I say? It was wet and not to be a recommended way to show your affection (unless you really are a dog). +Do kiss your partner’s face though. Think romantic featherlight kisses on the forehead, eyelids, nose, cheeks, chin, jawbone and, of course, lips. If you want to feel wonderfully silly, rub your noses together in an Eskimo kiss. A boyfriend of mine used to tickle my nose ridge. He said I made the cutest scrunchy faces when he did that. +Ears. I had no idea why people found kissing and licking ears exciting. Not until a friend of mine one day started to nibble my earlobe, and suddenly stuck his tongue into my ear. First reaction: yikes, what is he doing?! Second reaction: wow, do that some more. Many people are extra sensitive right behind the earlobe. +Nibbling is good, and if you want to use your tongue, see to it that you don’t shove it in too deep. Oh, and no dribbling please. +Kissing. We all love it, and we all want it done differently. I can only say two things really; don’t stick your tongue in too fast and too far, and please don’t slobber all over me. + **Throat/Neck** +Probably one of the most appreciated erogenous zones apart from the obvious ones. Kiss, lick, nibble, tickle, suck or bite. The choice is all yours. Most people love it when you pay attention to their neck, be it the nape, centre or where the shoulder meets it. Some are so sensitive there, you just have to blow or touch it lightly before they’re all fired up. + **Shoulders** +I love it when I get a shoulder and neck massage. I absolutely adore it. Helps me relax, and the more relaxed I am, the more prone I will be to let my body override my mind. +Kissing the collarbone is often appreciated and shouldn’t be forgotten. + **Arms** +As I mentioned earlier, let your hands caress the arms. One at a time or both at once. Remember, the more you concentrate on one area of the body, the more your senses will focus on what’s happening there. +The inner arm is usually more sensitive than the rest of the arm. I’ve noticed some are the most sensitive by the elbow joint. For others the it’s below the elbow and down to the hand where it’s most sensitive. Just trail your fingertips along the arm and find out what works for you. Running your tongue slowly along the arm is also very nice. + **Hands** +Run your tongue down my inner arm, stop by the wrist for a few seconds, then continue to lick and kiss my palm, before finally taking my fingers, one by one, into your mouth and gently suck them. Don’t forget a light flick of the tongue on the skin in-between my fingers and knuckles. Do that and I’m sure to be putty in your hands. Hey, if it worked for Johnny Depp in “Don Juan de Marco”, why shouldn’t it work for you? + **Breasts/Chest** +Women know men love to play with their breasts. That’s cool, we love it when you do. The general rule though is that, unless she wants it, try not to be too rough. They’re attached to a body, and not every woman is that sensitive in that area. I recall a girl’s night in when the topic of breasts and sensitivity came up. Though majority of the girls said they loved breast play, there were a few who just couldn’t understand the big fuss. Some women just aren’t as sensitive, and no, just because you’re spending half an hour licking and sucking my nipples, it won’t mean I’ll get more sensitive or have a porn orgasm. It’ll just hurt after a while. +I’m not saying that one shouldn’t play with the breast, but if you notice she’s not really into it, or perhaps need to be stimulated more by rhythmic circular movements, rather than having her tits squeezed, then follow her lead. +When it comes to men’s chests, well what can I say, but hallelujah for hot summer days when they take their shirts off. Some like ‘em hairy while others (like me) prefer them smooth. As men’s chests are limited in size, we don’t have the choices they have when playing with our breasts. Still, the normal kissing, licking and caressing always feels nice, doesn’t it guys? +Oh Girls, don’t forget to pay some attention to his nipples too. Even if yours may not be sensitive, it doesn’t mean his aren’t. Flicking your tongue and sucking his nipples while giving him a handjob can heighten his arousal. Or pinching themlightly while giving him a blowjob also works. + **Waist & Stomach area** +I swear the stomach is there for nothing else but to put your mouth to it and blow on it, creating farting sounds, while making your partner laugh and deem you as childish. Oh yeah, it’s great to fall asleep on too. +Now, the waist and sides are perfect places to find spots where your partner will start to squirm. For this purpose I’ve found using my tongue is the best instrument. Trace your tongue along your partners side, stop here and there to flick it around. Sooner or later you’ll find a spot where he/she is more sensitive. For the men I’ve done this too, it seems there are two main spots. One is waist height and halfway to the navel. The other one being just by the hipbone, going down towards the groin. The area between the waist and genitals seem to hold many interesting spots. Some guys have been too ticklish, while others went gaga when I worked their particular spot. +The navel. I’ve read many who mention that the navel is an erogenous zone to them. This was something totally new to me, and I’m curious now if it’d work on me. Better find myself a man so I can try it out! + **Genitals** +There is plenty of information out there how to give great oral sex or handjobs; lubrication, variation, pressure, speed, adding of fingers and a half hour to an hour should make it perfect (and that‘s the minimum time!). +I really can’t come up with anything new to add, apart from reminding the females not to forget the balls. Not all men like it, some find it painful even, but many love it of you play with their balls. Hold them in your hand and massage them gently. Licking them feels great (so I’ve heard!), and work yourself from front till back. The small area between the balls and rectum can be very sensitive. +Wait, I just remembered something. Guys, when you perform oral on a girl, don’t forget that some girls can’t take too much direct stimulation on the clit. Work around the whole pussy area too, don’t just concentrate on the clit. And use your whole tongue, not just the tip of it. + **Back** +Sigh, am I the only woman who has a thing for shoulder blades? Probably. Anyway, kissing, licking, caressing and massaging are once again fool proof here. Many men and women love it when you kiss/lick down their spine. The end of the spine is often the most sensitive area, so spend some time blowing, kissing and working that hot tongue of yours there. + **Ass/Arse** +Now, who doesn’t like a nicely shaped arse? Didn’t think so. +Kneading, massaging motions work great on the arse. Parting the cheeks now and then in the process doesn’t hurt either. Running your nails over his roundness, before grabbing him to help pushing in deeper while you’re getting it on, certainly isn’t a negative thing. Neither is blowing lightly and kissing right above where the crack starts. +Some people like a friendly spanking, a rimming, anal fingering or anal sex. Whatever works for you and your partner, but as with everything else; communicate first and don’t do anything the other person isn’t up to. If you’re interested in anal play, do look up other How To essays that deal with this. They give plenty of advice. +Oh yeah, guys if you want to do anal play with her, I think it’s just fair you let her play with you too. Just my opinion. + **Legs** +The inner thighs are often very sensitive, and is definitely to include in your top to toe repertoire. The back of the knee is another area definitely worth exploring. Don’t forget to caress the calves and if you partner isn’t too ticklish, play with their feet. Personally I’m far too ticklish for anyone to touch my feet. I’d end up kicking the poor guy instead! +When you’ve found your partners hot spots, keep working them until he/she can’t take it anymore. Being a big fan of delaying the main event (don’t you love the power kick it gives seeing your partner squirm and beg?), I usually spend quite some time playing around with these hot spots (naturally focusing extra on the main ones). When I’ve tortured him long enough I start to move in towards his genitals. This basically means running my nails along his inner thighs, closer and closer to his package. Then I normally start with the best teasing bit and caress all around his genitals, while taking in the lovely sight of his rock hard dick. +Ok, so he’s damn hard by now and dying for you to touch him directly. Don’t. Take your thumb and middle finger and put them lightly together. Imagine him lying down on the bed. Now run your fingertips from the back of his balls, parting the fingers to follow on each side of the balls, and continue alongside the sides of his shaft trailing the contours. Trail your fingers back the same way you came. First couple of times, try not to touch the shaft, then do it the third time. Perfect start for a handjob. Then later when he’s even hornier, progress to a blowjob. He’ll love you for it. +For the men, do the same trailing of contours, but along the outer lips. The skin around the pussy is usually very sensitive, as I’m sure you know. Run your fingers up and down along the sides of her outer lips, then when on your way up again, put the fingertips together again and let them go up along her wet inner folds. On the way down go along the sides again, then inner lips. Repeat and then just do whatever feels good for her. When you find something she likes, keep doing it. +If your partner is doing one thing that feels good, then imagine him/her doing two or three things at the same time! Yep, it’s multi-tasking time. When you know how and where to touch your partner, try to combine as many things as possible. Then just follow the old start-and-stop technique. Get your partner to the edge, then stop what you’re doing and start something new or take a break, then start again. When neither of you can take it anymore, have hot steaming sex. Add to this a bit of vocal accompaniment and you should be having a great time! + _I hope you and your partner will have a great time exploring each other’s bodies, and please vote and send me feedback._" +187,The Erotic and the Speculative,leapingfox,How To,2008-05-28,2008-05-28,2022-01-04 08:40:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-erotic-and-the-speculative,The challenges and opportunities of erotic SF.,"['Fantasy', 'Guide', 'Sci-Fi', 'Science Fiction', 'Speculative']",4.31,"SF (speculative fiction; the category includes science fiction, fantasy, and related genres) has a lot in common with erotica. Both are ridiculously easy to write badly and excruciatingly difficult to write well. Both are widely considered ""inferior"" by the mainstream literary community, yet actually contain some of the finest literature in existence. (Vonnegut's _Slaughterhouse Five_ is about space aliens and time travel, and Joyce's _Ulysses_ has such explicit parts that it was originally published as porn and banned by the US Supreme Court. It is a sad truth that both books are usually considered somehow ""transcendent"" of their roots, not ""just"" SF and erotica but something ""more"" than these, as if SF and erotica aren't good enough to be counted as literature.) +The subgenre of erotic SF suffers from the challenges of both its parents; the combination of the two makes it an extremely difficult genre to succeed in. +Yet with this challenge comes reward; once you lay down the taboos of your culture (erotica) and the facts of your human experience (SF), you suddenly become free to write about almost anyone, anything, anywhere---of course including people and places and things (and things that are part place, part person, part thing; think Moya of _Farscape_ or Andromeda of, well, _Andromeda_ ) that are not, never have been, and cannot ever be. This incredible freedom quite literally can take you to the stars, back through time a thousand years, and infinitely beyond. +So in that sense, yes, you do abandon the need for ""realism"" to write erotic SF; but do not be so quick to think that it is entirely gone. Realism leaves a shadow on SF that remains important. +The most important feature of this new realism is consistency. If the world you create---for it is worlds you are creating, whole worlds that have never before existed, and you must create them well---if that world contradicts itself, your readers will simply be unable to engage with it. If the same alien technology or magical incantation behaves differently the second time than it did the first time, there better be a reason; or your writing simply won't make sense, and no one will want to read it. +Another crucial part of this realism is imperfection. Everything is imperfect. Everything. Always. You must write imperfection into everything you do. Even if it is possible for a world to exist that contains something truly perfect, a human reader, who knows her own imperfection all too well, will be incapable of interfacing with that world. Its perfection will be opaque to her, and ultimately, uninteresting. It is infinitely better to have characters with flaws, who make mistakes, judge wrongly, even behave cruelly, than to try to imagine some pristine utopia. The world you make can be very different than ours, and on balance be better or worse; but unless it too has both its good and its bad, your reader will be unable to identify with anything or anyone within it. +Then, there is of course the matter of anatomy, as is often necessary in these how-to manuals for erotic fiction. In erotic SF, you are obviously no longer limited by the constraints of the human form. You may change the dimensions, multiply the organs, even invent wholly new structures the likes of which have never been seen on Earth. Hermaphrodism is almost bland by comparison with the options available to you. I have envisioned races with three, five, or seven sexes, even beings that reproduce by asexual cellular fission yet engage in acts of physical intimacy purely by choice. And of course there is always the option of taking someone else's creation---an elf, a fairy, an alien from _Alien_ \---and transmuting it by the power of the pen into an object of lust. +Yet whatever you create, you must create it consistently, following your own rules---if it is normal for the R'Neeki to have three four-meter penises (do you realize how huge that is? You could go up and down my leg twice!), then it is _normal_ for R'Neeki to have three four-meter penises. A R'Neeki female would not be particularly impressed if she encountered such in her lover. It would be like seeing a man with a six inch erection; certainly fine, especially as part of a whole package, but nothing particularly remarkable. Surely a human woman's reaction to our average R'Neeki male would be quite different---my guess is that it would be one of terror, but that should depend upon how you want to characterize her; maybe she is a xenophile, aching for the chance to have a trio of alien cocks wrapped around her body. +Another challenge unique to SF is the danger of spending too much time building a world or a language, too many pages spent on describing every facet of the environment and inventing new terminology to suit it. This sort of world-building is often far more entertaining for the author than the reader, and for that reason should be largely relegated to your private notes (which ye shall have, always) and not published in the final product. For the depth of understanding it gives you, is certainly good to know the muzzle velocity of a Solar Federation Marine's bolter machinegun, but you don't need to actually state it in the text of the story, and indeed if you do, you'll probably stall the flow of the narrative. (That is, unless the muzzle velocity of that weapon somehow becomes crucially important to the story... I can't imagine how, but part of the fun of SF is trying to come up with things that no one else can imagine.) +One thing you must _never_ think is that depth of characterization is somehow optional. Depth of characterization remains every bit as essential in erotic SF as in any form of literature---all the more so for the fact that it can easily be overshadowed by the alien worlds and exotic sex scenes. This is, in large part, what separates the authors from the people who think they are authors; only the former realize that despite the glitz of interstellar travel and the heat of tentacle sex, you still have to write a good story about interesting people if you want people to read what you've written. +The rest, I leave to you; I wish you luck on your journey." +188,Erotic Haiku,jthserra,How To,2021-01-15,2021-01-15,2022-01-04 08:28:15,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/erotic-haiku-21,the often delicate beauty of erotic haiku.,"['Erotic Haiku', 'Haiku', 'On Writing', 'Poetry', 'Poetry Forms', 'Poetry Writing Advice', 'Poetry Writing Guide', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Guide', 'Writing Poetry']",4.6,"To fully appreciate the often delicate beauty of erotic haiku, the reader should approach the poems with a basic understanding of exactly what erotic haiku is. Much like other erotic poems and erotic prose, erotic haiku will often be judged based upon very personal concepts of erotica. To find a broad definition of erotica readers can consult a dictionary which defines ""erotica"" as: _""literary or artistic works having an erotic theme or quality_ ""(1). The same dictionary defines ""erotic"" as: _""1. of, devoted to, or tending to arouse sexual love or desire 2. strongly affected by sexual desire""_ (1). +In other words, much like erotic poetry and prose, erotic haiku is NOT the naked woman or man calling you with legs spread wide. No, erotic haiku is the tilt of a woman's brow as she looks at you that ""certain"" way, it's the gleam in someone's eye just before they realize you caught them staring at your cleavage or ass, it's the glimpse of her thigh in a long slit skirt, or the hint of fragrance as he or she leads you to the bedroom. While other poetry and prose can carry on past these initial images, due to their brevity, erotic haiku will provide the reader with the initial spark of eroticism, leaving him or her to let the thought develop in their imagination. +Historically haiku was not often used as a form to express erotica: _""Because haiku traditionally tended to shun strong passion and romantic love, to explore those areas was to go counter to established tradition...""_ (2 pg ix). More often, poems of love and erotica were written in the more ancient tanka form, a Japanese 5 lined poem of 31 Japanese syllables. Tanka featured a more elegant, lyrical quality compared to haiku. Although erotica was not the traditional subject of haiku, there was some written as haiku: + _moonflowers in bloom when a woman's skin gleams through the dusk_ Chiyojo (1703-1775) (2 pg 40) +The subtle eroticism in this poem is accentuated in the comparison of the two images, the woman's skin gleaming like moonflowers in bloom. Though tame by today's standards, writing of this image in the 18th century was provocative indeed. +As time passed and haiku became more widely publicized, a wider base of artists began to study and write haiku. Though the years styles changed and challenged many traditions in the arts. Variations in forms developed and the senryu became popular. Though similar, haiku and senryu are different forms and their difference is significant in considering erotic haiku. Other articles posted at Literotica go into great detail on both forms, but briefly, according to the Haiku Society of America haiku is defined as: _""1: An unrhymed Japanese poem recording the essence of a moment keenly perceived, in which Nature is linked to human nature. It usually consists of seventeen onji (Japanese unit roughly equivalent to an English syllable). 2: A foreign adaptation of 1, usually written in three lines totaling fewer than seventeen syllables""_ (3 pg 4). +Senryu is defined as: _""1: A Japanese poem structurally similar to the Japanese haiku but primarily concerned with human nature; often humorous or satiric. 2: A foreign adaptation of 1""_ (3 pg 26). A third form, similar in structure only to haiku and senryu is the zappai: _""In Japanese poetry, zappai includes all types of seventeen syllable poems that do not have the proper formal or technical characteristics of haiku...""_ (4). +Basically, the short (usually seventeen syllables or less) poems of roughly three lines can be classified as haiku, senryu or zappai. Based upon the simplified definitions above and within certain structural limitations, if the erotic poem in some way links Nature (Mother Nature) to human nature it will most likely be classified a haiku, if it has only to do with human nature it will often be classified a senryu and if it is basically three lines of about seventeen syllables but doesn't fit the requirements for haiku or senryu it would be classified a zappai. For more information on each of the forms, please refer to the number of articles here at Literotica. +As time passed, many more Japanese poets studied the haiku and similar forms. Some wonderful erotic haiku grew from this increased popularity: + _the winter blooming plum buds touching one another in the twilight_ Ishibashi Hideno (1909-1947) (2 pg 123) +Though perhaps only about the ripening buds on the plum trees, another starkly erotic image may come to mind in this haiku: perhaps the hint of two women in moonlight. Another 20th century haiku artist presented an incredibly beautiful, erotic image with her haiku: + _beyond the dark where I disrobe an iris in bloom_ Katsura Nobuko (b. 1914) (2 pg 140) +As haiku spread to different languages, erotic haiku also followed. In Cor van den Heuvel's excellent book: ""The haiku Anthology"" a number of erotic poems were featured. Though some could be classified as senryu based upon the definitions listed above, these images are definitely erotic: +PORNO MOVIE + _the girl_ +loosens her bra +starts peeling off panties +darkens +$0.25 +Alan Pizzarelli (5 pg 149) +Without a reference to Nature, this would most likely be considered a senryu, but the image does meet the definition for erotic. From the same anthology, two poems are offered by Alexis Rotella. Notice that one of the poems, most likely a senryu is created in just one line: + _Lying in the wet grass, him still beating inside me._ Alexis Rotella (5 pg 171) _starrynightIenteryourmirror_ Alexis Rotella (5 pg 170) +Another one line haiku from ""The haiku Anthology"" features a break in the line, accentuating the two images: + _Night begins to gather between her breasts_ +George Swede (5pg 210) +The popularity of erotic haiku has grown throughout the 20th century, with a number of erotic haiku anthologies developed in the late 1990s. Gabriel Rosenstock, a haiku artist from Ireland published a book of his own erotic haiku titled: Cold Moon, The Erotic Haiku of Gabriel Rosenstock. The book features the original haiku written in his native tongue, with the accompanying English translation: + _waxy glistening of leaves sometimes i'd come along your thigh glioscarnach chiarach na nduilleog thagainn uaireanta feadh do cheathrun_ Gabriel Rosenstock (6 pg 15) _standing stark naked before you shadow-penis lengthening on the wall you tantalize the shadow seasaim lomnocht romhat scath mo bhoid a fhadu ar an mballa griogann tu an scath_ Gabriel Rosenstock (6 pg 93) +Into the 21st Century, erotic haiku has remained popular, with yet another anthology in the works from former president of the Haiku Society of America Hiroaki Sato. Two of his erotic poems include: + _in your panties slightly pulled down a crisp fallen leaf that first time my middle-finger slipped into your warm wet cleft_ Hiroaki Sato (7) +In fact the most recent edition of Frogpond, The Journal of the Haiku Society of America featured a beautiful, erotic image: + _lunar eclipse a nipple peeks over her dress_ Paula Fisher (3 pg 37) +Clearly, the erotic potential for haiku, senryu and zappai is distinct. While the brevity limits the reader to one or two quick images, it allows the reader to expand upon the erotic suggestion within the poem. The possibilities are limited only by the imagination of the reader. + _by the lamp the curve of her breast in silhouette_ +- +Footnotes +1\. ""Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary"" G.&C.

As a relaxation technique, it can’t be beat, and it’s something that you can do to substitute the high priced day or resort spas that exist out there. Let’s face it; most spas treatments are somewhat sensual when you look at them. Massage, facials, aromatherapies, hot tubs, saunas, body wraps, all have a certain degree of sexiness attached to them. Even the spas themselves, offering secluded, natural, well designed environments, sometimes replete with a myriad of candles, incense, soothing music and often times HOT attendants and therapists are a sensualists fantasy land come true. The only problem is that there aren’t too many spas around that cater to the erotic lifestyle in the United States. I have heard of a couple out in the Pacific coast region. Esalen, or Harbin hot springs (I can relate many accounts of beautiful lovemaking at Harbin which friends have seen), but none in New York City. +Those spas that do sensuality seriously are very rare indeed, and if we look here and there, the majority of establishments catering to sensual delights are usually all male or high-class brothels. This is a shame because in the great country we live in, the human body is still looked upon as something taboo and forbidden. In Europe, they are much freer with the body, and massage therapists are less likely to drape the human body during massage, or react negatively, when a client gets aroused, has an erection, or climaxes during a session. +Although American spas are a bit of a tease, disrobing completely with your therapist, or sharing a tub with your significant other, is something that is taboo. Therefore, to supplement your meditation, sensual, sexual, poly/swing or masturbatory practice, I have added some suggestions on creating the perfect spa in ones own bathroom. Now you can make your own bathroom into a virtual palace of sensory pleasures with a little bit of effort, creativity, and an investment of a few dollars here and there. +The following suggestions have been collected from experience, Internet articles, friends, and e-mails that have been sent to me by others who follow in the sensual holistic path. Enjoy them, and remember, one doesn’t need to be a rich super star to partake in the healthful delights only given at the high priced spas. Basically you need some candles, essential oils, organic soaps, soft music, and a warm and clean bathroom where you won’t be disturbed. +=============== +Turn off the lights, get your candles ready, and light some incense. Create your own bath oil by purchasing sunflower oil or sweet almond oil and pour it into decorative containers. Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil and pour into your tub. +No money for a cleansing colonic? Go to your local drug store and purchase a couple of do it yourself Fleet enemas. Easy and painless, and it will clean you out leaving you feeling better for a couple of bucks. +Make a magic facial mask. Almost anything on your face makes a great mask. Even semen which contains sperm and therefore a high amount of nutrients can be great. Only for the open minded. Before AIDS women in Europe were known to give themselves “facials” and masks with their lovers ejaculate. I know, it sounds a bit gross, but trust me, it works. I try to give myself a “cum” mask one about every week or two. My loving husband is always eager to do this for me. A little goes a long way, and the organic living things found within the semen makes my face smooth and radiant. Please only do this with those that you know, or those that you have an intimate sexual relationship with. +If you are not inclined go the semen mask way, then the following mask suggestions will work just fine. For dry skin, use mash avocados or bananas. For blemished skin, an egg white and honey mask will take out impurities. The other two are mashed papaya (papaya contains an enzyme to exfoliate and heal blemished skin) or tomato, which is a mild astringent to refine pores (be sure to drain juice and seeds before mashing). +The egg white and honey mask was hard to wash off, even after steaming. It did, however, make my skin feel taut when it dried. The avocado was perfect, but a little slimy - same for the papaya. The tomato was somewhat messy. My skin was definitely softer after all those masks! I liked the papaya the best because it smelled so good, but the semen mask was great on the skin overall! +For soothing bath salts, mix sea salts or kosher salts with several drops of fragrant oil. Pour liberally into your tub water. Lay back and relax! Light a candle, masturbate if you want. Attach an inflatable terry cloth pillow to the wall behind the tub. Have a generous supply of plush towels ready and waiting. The bath sheet size are especially luxurious Or wrap your self in a generous thick robe to dry. If you're giving yourself a body treatment, have a back brush, loofah or sponge. Keep all supplies close at hand: cotton balls or swabs, washcloth, comb and brush, magnifying mirror, hair clip, tweezers, shower cap, vibrators, dildos, or personal lubricants. +To make matching aromatic candles, add your essential oils into melted beeswax and pour into a glass container. Place in the wick and let it harden. +For itchy irritated skin, try the oatmeal remedy. Place plain oatmeal into a cut of cheesecloth. Secure the top, tie a sash and you are ready to go. +Spa Baths. Get the full spa treatment in your own tub by adding just a few ingredients. Suspend a few chamomile tea bags in gauze or cheesecloth under the faucet and let warm water run over them. I like to cut an orange into thin slices and float it in the water for added aromatherapy benefits. +To soothe achy muscles, use Epson salts in place of oatmeal, add a few drops of essential oils, and pour into hot water. To soothe achy muscles, use Epsom salts in place of oatmeal, add a few drops of essential oils, and pour into hot water. Homemade bubble bath can be made by combining, 1 cup of soap flakes, 1 cup of water, 3 TB of glycerin and 3 drops of essential oils. Mix and store in an attractive container. For soap flakes (for making bubble bath) use a grater and chip off flakes from your favorite scented soap. +To add to your spa, keep plenty of scented soaps, face masks, 100% cotton towels and nylon meshed puff washcloths. Pat yourself dry, wrap up in your towels, and cover your skin with moisturizing lotions scented to match your bath scents. Turn on relaxing music and make a hot cup of herbal tea to sip on while bathing. Wine or champagne is also an excellent spa like drink. Mulled wine, or hot toddies are also excellent during winter months. Some Kava Kava, or Valerian root pills are also excellent to relax. Keeping your mixtures in a pretty container such as a crystal covered dish or tea cup, enhances the luxury of the experience. +Always remember that one doesn’t need a real hot tub. Just fill the tub with somewhat hot water (not too hot – you can burn) and use your creativity with oils, and other organic substances. +A vigorous towel down after the bath can be very stimulating. It’s even better if some else does it for you! After this you can masturbate, make love, or simply wrap yourself in a lovely soft robe, drink tea, or take a relaxing cap nap. +The most important thing is to relax, be creative, and have fun!

TELL ME IN MY INBOX... CUZ ITS A SECRET... THEN REPOST THIS IN YOUR BULLETIN... YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED WITH THE RESPONSES YOU GET. THEY COULD MAKE YOU LAUGH OR EVEN SMILE OR EVEN DISGUSTED..."" +That message was sent by one of my Web Friends, Pierced, a young woman just turned 19. I knew her from another Website Forum Board and followed her profile link to the popular site where I asked her to join my Friends Network. +I knew she was Scorpio, I knew she was into Goth, I knew she was a daring young woman who at least spoke with a sexual maturity. So, I responded to her query - with disclaimers that it might disgust her to have a 60-something- year-old man have his way with her nubile young bod. +From experience with my teen daughter I knew some of the ideations a young woman could have about age. My daughter was perusing a Nude Male mag at 18 and she commented on what I thought was a very nice looking young man. The model was in his early 30's but my daughter said, ""He's so old."" When you think of it, that was double her age. So how about a 40-year age spread or triple her age? +I answered Pierced query honestly and with candor. I told her exactly how I would seduce her in those 24 hours, how I would give her a massage that would get very intimate, with my hands exploring her crotch. I stopped at that, not going into more detail because I seriously didn't want to freak the girl out and have her delete me from her Friends. But, I did invite her to respond and she did. +Pierced e-mailed me that I am not that much older than her parents. She also told me that I never finished telling her what I would do if I had her in the room for 24 hours and that I had piqued her interest. +I wrote her back that 24 hours is a long time and I was on the verge of writing one of my erotic stories when I stopped. I invited her to look up Shale on Literotica.com where I had over 20 pieces of erotica or sexual essays posted, many of them written before she was yet born. +So, I continued writing of the massage and my seduction of a young woman, the kind of fantasy that is quite appealing to me actually. (It helps that I have seen pix of Pierced and she is quite an attractive young woman). However, I wanted it to be real and asked for her input as a 19-year-old woman being seduced by a much older man. +Here is the unfolding story with Shale's questions and Pierced replies: +First, since there are 24 hours I would talk with you, perhaps with some wine, but not too much. I would eventually talk to you about how attractive you are and so begins the seduction. +I would offer you a full-body massage. It is a way to get experience of your body. The massage would feel good - very good - I am good with my hands. You would relax in the dimly, candle lit room and forget the great age difference and just feel my hands, pushing into the muscles of your back. +After you have relaxed by my touch on your back and shoulders, I would move to your legs and feet. My hands would feel so good on your calves, thighs and feet that you would barely notice that I was licking between your toes. If you did I would tell you that I wish to experience your young body - to smell and taste all your secret parts. +Q- SHALE: ""At this point would you object? What would be your thoughts?"" +A-PIERCED: ""Hmm. I don't think I'd be objecting. I'd most likely be holding judgment in reserve, just waiting."" +My hands would push over the back of your legs in long smooth strokes, deep into the muscles relaxing you to the point that you didn't notice them pushing under the towel, into your butt. It would be so relaxing that you would relish the occasional gentle stroke across your labia as my hands kneaded the back your upper thighs. +Q- SHALE: ""Of course by now you know that I am seducing you, would you object to this, feel repulsed, or curious?"" +A- PIERCED: ""Curious, I believe. It would be a novel experience."" +I would ask you to turn over, towel still draped from you breasts to upper thighs. As I worked on the upper legs, with long effleurage strokes that go over the hip, I can see the pubes peeking from the edge of the towel. After both legs have been massaged, I would pause, hand on the inner thigh, near your pubes. +Q- SHALE: ""What is your reaction to this pause?"" +A- PIERCED: ""Anticipation...that's the best word I can come up with."" +My hand would move from your inner thigh, over your hip and onto your abdomen. I would glide it upward, stopping right below your breasts, then slide it back down again, slowly, gently, exploring the contour of your abs, dipping a finger into your navel, stopping just above your pubes. +Q- SHALE: ""This is full-scale prelude to sexual intimacy - what is your take at this point?"" +A- PIERCED: ""Heightened sense of anticipation."" +Q- SHALE: ""Remember my age - is it still a factor? You don't have to get kinky by thinking of daddy - but go ahead if you want, it makes an even more lurid story"" +A- PIERCED: ""Maybe, maybe not. Sex is sex and is a natural human act, regardless of factors like gender of both partners, race, and age."" +My fingers slide into your upper pubes, just on the mound and I start twirling the coarse, curly hairs in my fingers, giving an occasional tug, bunching them between thumb and forefinger. +Q- SHALE: ""OMG - You don't shave do you?"" +A- PIERCED: ""Yes I do, allows for a better view of my hood piercing that Dad would flip out about if he knew."" +Then I flatten my whole palm on your mound, twisting my hand I slide it between your legs, pushing down with my middle finger to just crease the cleft of your vulva. You raise your hips to meet my touch and I push my finger lower, slipping between your lips, feeling the moisture that has been collecting there. +SHALE: ""OK, I'll take it from here. Jump in anywhere you want with a comment."" +I pull the towel aside and kiss you on the navel, licking at the jewel pierced there. +(PIERCED: "" I don't have a navel piercing; I refuse to get any surface piercings because of the high rate of rejection and outwards migration. They also tend to leave some nasty scars if they do manage to migrate out."") +(SHALE: ""Going to take the piercing out of the navel - I didn't much care for it myself - looks interesting but I prefer licking navels without bumping into things."") +My tongue follows the fine line of hairs that disappear into your dark brown bush. (Note from Shale: Bush taken out) I take a deep breath, inhaling your fragrance of moistened hair and soft skin. My finger pushes deeper within you as my mouth retreats up your abs to your firm breasts. I find a stiffened nipple and pass my tongue over it, enjoying the turgor as it springs back, awaiting my next lick. And suck. My lips pull gently at your nipple before I put my mouth over your breast, rolling your nipple with my tongue. One hand is playing with your other breast, gently squeezing as my thumb and forefinger roll a nipple back and forth. +My other hand is well within you, slippery and wet it probes your depth as my thumb slides slowly over your clit. You give a moan and slight upward thrust of your hips. Now there are two fingers in you and my thumb still teasing your clit. +I remove my head from your succulent breasts and lift your leg, ducking my head under. My face pushed into your hair, I inhale your fragrance and rub it onto my beard. My tongue darts over your clit, as I slide the hood back, and I press my nose there to savor the slight scent of smegma as my tongue, now inside you tastes the slight bitterness of your urethra as I lick from there to your clit. +As I lick you, my fingers are sliding in and out. My palm is up and my fingers curve up, tracing the contour of your vagina, pressing under your pubic mound. You start to lift your hip and I hear a moan. As I suck on your clit, sliding my fingers in and out, you give a shudder and squeeze my head between your thighs. I slow, but don't stop as I ride with you this wave coursing thru you. +That is what I would do to you. I think I have a few more hours. Still want to stick my nose inside you and lick your anus. But I need a break now. +____________________________ +Thus ended the initial erotica concerning the original question of what I would do if I could have my way with an attractive young woman for 24 hours locked in her room. The last comment about needing a break was no lie. +I get turned on when writing erotica. I have always had a very active pre-cum gland and sometimes, with erotic thoughts, start leaking without even being hard. In this case Shale was pushing at the confines of his shorts and dripping, so yeah, he needed a break. (Isn't that why we read JO porn?) When I did my erotic writing in the '80s and '90s my wife had to do Research & Development with me. I would write stuff and say, will that really work that way? - then go molest her to try it out. She rather liked it I think. +In a subsequent e-mail to Pierced, I wrote that I found an angle to make an erotic story out of that posed question. I would continue on an equally absurd premise from the '60s era, ""The Harrad Experiment."" +When the story was put together I e-mailed it to Pierced and asked for more input. Fact is, I was at a loss on one point where I lack experience: +Q-SHALE: ""Altho I've seen lots of pierced clit hoods and labia, I don't know what sensation it does in sex. Does it give a different sensation than without? Pulls a certain way? I know guys with Prince Albert's say it enhances the sexual experience (compensation for spraying urine and having to sit down to pee). I have actually encountered shaved pussy before - in Turkey. The pros shaved and I think it was to keep crabs away."" +A- PIERCED: ""The purpose of a hood piercing is to help stimulate the clit during sex. I read somewhere that during vaginal sex, the clitoris receives almost no stimulation (which is why most women like foreplay) and a hood piercing helps stimulate during sex itself. It also increases the number of times a woman climaxes, from about 1 or 2 to 3 or more during one session. Men also receive some stimulation from it as well, but it's true purpose is to stimulate women."" +Q- SHALE: I've never done oral on a girl with hood jewelry. Was just playing it by imagination. Ever since Peggy taught me to ""Suck it Rob, suck it,"" in 1967, I have been doing that with clits. I don't know if the piercing would interfere with that, which is why I was vague here. I'm into smells and like to slide the hood back and press a nostril to the clit (Yeah, women have smegma). Don't know if a piercing would interfere with that either. +A- PIERCED: ""The bar of the hood piercing rests right on the clit itself, and in my experience, guys like to play with it with both their hands and mouth."" +Pierced has several screen names, and the one originally picked for this story, Nemesis, did seem awkward. I asked her if it would be alright to post this on a Website where she was known by her screen name because, altho it is anonymous, it is actually revealing. +A- PIERCED: ""I have to say, I rather enjoyed it myself. Either Pierced or Nemesis, either one. I'm favoring Pierced, just because I am, but both work for me."" +Q- SHALE: ""Yeah, I think Pierced works better (now that we know the secret meaning) +Do you mind if I post it on the other Website Adult Forum? It is just a story, but both characters are known there. (my rep there can be sullied no more!) I would actually like to do a behind-the-scenes essay on how the story came about. That could also be posted on Literotica. I've got a couple of essays there as well as the porn stuff."" +A- PIERCED: ""I don't have a problem with you putting on the Adult Forum. I was wondering if anyone on that site was going to ask me about the ""Pierced"" in my name there. This will save them the trouble of wondering. The behind the scenes essay on the story sounds like a great idea."" +SHALE: ""Thanks for the input - it was fun. If I smoked I'd probably be leaning back in my chair enjoying a cig right now.""" +192,Erotica Guide to Teasing,Holdingout1,How To,2014-07-23,2014-07-23,2022-01-04 08:28:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/erotica-guide-to-teasing,A guide for couples who want to play teasing games.,"['Chastity', 'Couple', 'Erotic', 'Game', 'Play', 'Relationship', 'Teasing']",4.66,"\----------------------------------- +A Couples Guide To Erotic Teasing +\----------------------------------- +Many couples enjoy playing erotic teasing games to add some extra fun into their sex lives. Teasing games are great way to add some variety to your regular routine which also has the benefit of increasing the sexual tension between two lovers. Every couple is a little different in when and how they choose to play 'teasing games' but for many, it is a fun, additional part of their sex lives that can be played when they are both in the mood. When my wife and I choose to write this guide we hoped that spending some time to write down what we've learned would help introduce new couples to the basic ideas of erotic teasing. We hope that you enjoy it as much as we do, as an erotic adventure to take together. +\------------------- +Creating The Tease +\------------------- +To begin to understand the basics of erotic teasing, it helps to first understand what is a tease. Webster's Dictionary defines a tease as: +""To arouse hope, desire, or curiosity in someone without affording satisfaction."" +In other words, in order to tease your partner, you must arouse some uncertain hope on their part that they will get to have sex and that they will get to achieve an orgasm. So specifically teasing is not about just putting off sex for long periods of time. That is detachment, which is a negative situation and isn't at all the goal of teasing. Teasing is creating a situation where his orgasm is unpredictable for him. This unpredictability is what creates an erotic tension between lovers. So you should tease your lover regularly and often, even if just for a minute or two, or just enough to get him hard and then walk away. He will be unsure of when you plan to go all the way, and when you will stop, and this will intensify his desire to orgasm. +Of course, the most direct way of teasing him is to frequently bring him close to the brink of orgasm, which is delicious for both partners, and makes him that much more hopeful this time could be the one where he is able to get off. It is through this unpredictable nature of the orgasm that his hope and desires are increased. And as his desire is increased, so too is his motivation to please you, in the hope that if you are sufficiently pleased, than you will finally allow him some satisfaction as well. +You will find that the more time that you spend teasing him, the more time he will spend trying to please you in return. This is where the fun and play come into teasing games between lovers. +\---------------------------- +The Science Of Why It Works +\---------------------------- +So why not just allow him satisfaction every time? Wouldn't that make him happier, and also bring the couple closer together? To really understand the answer to this question, it helps to remember Pavlov's dogs, a famous experiment in behavioral conditioning. +Pavlov was able to prove that consistently providing for basic needs at regular predictable intervals actually decreases the dog's desire to seek that need, since that dog knows that the need will always be routinely met. With his needs met, the dog doesn't need to spend energy in seeking to have that need met, and likewise the desire for that need goes down. We never appreciate that which we take for granted. Likewise, the same is also true for consistently withholding a need, in that all hope of ever satisfying that need is abandoned, and so the dog's desire to seek the unattainable need gives way to apathetic hopelessness if unsatisfied for too long. +But, Pavlov proved that the dog's desire for a need is greatest, and the energy spend seeking that need is greatest, when satisfaction of that need is uncertain. Even after the dog has just had this need met, he will sooner begin trying to meet that need again, since the dog can never be sure when that need will ever be met again. +This brings us back to the original question, and the entire point of erotic teasing, which is that, the excitement of a teasing game is based upon the unpredictability of the orgasm, and the increased desire and efforts the 'teased person' puts forth to achieve the unpredictable orgasm from their partner. +As a final result, the teased man is spending more time and attention on his woman because his woman is spending more time and attention on teasing him. As you can see, both lovers are spending more time and attention on each other, which builds a closer, stronger relationship, and this is the ultimate benefit of playing erotic teasing games with your lover. +\-------------------------------------- +But Does He Really Want Me To Say No? +\-------------------------------------- +To answer this simply, if he has asked you to tease him, then yes he wants you to deny him as well. +It's worth mentioning this again, because, especially for a couple that is new to erotic teasing, if he's agreed to teasing and denial, he wants both the tease part and the denial part. One without the other does not work. It also does not work if during your play time you ask him if he wants to cum. This is because, if you were to ask this, then you are just giving the control of when he gets to orgasm back to him. If you ask, then he can get gratification whenever he wants which is the opposite of teasing and not what he wanted when he asked to play a teasing game. +This can be hard for people who are new to teasing to understand because they want to make their partner happy, and they might be afraid that telling him ""No cumming!"" isn't going to make him happy. But remember that giving in to his need to cum when he asks does not create any tease at at all. It's helpful to remember this fact especially when he is trying to convince you in 'that moment' when he is close to his orgasm. +Some have said that, the point in time where you take the control of his orgasm away from him, is the point in time he has been hoping for all along. It's the point at which you over-ride his immediate desires and you make things unpredictable for him. Once you do this a few times you will see how much it increases the sexual tension between the two of you and where it starts to get fun. Most men who are into teasing games, deep down want you to take control of their orgasms and own them. The only way to do this is for you to exercise your power over his orgasm by saying ""no"" now and then, unpredictably. +Lastly, while it may be difficult, don't feel guilty about saying ""no"", if he didn't really want to be teased, he wouldn't have asked for it in the first place. So, no matter what he says when his cock is hard and his balls are blue, tell him ""No"" and learn to love saying it. You are fulfilling his wishes, he will love you for it, and you both will enjoy a lot of fun. +\-------------- +A Time To Cum +\-------------- +Most couples find that they need to have very good communication to make make teasing games work. He should learn that as he finds himself getting close to the point of no return, he should announce that he is 'close'. This gives you the opportunity to decide ""Not yet"" or ""Cum for me"". By waiting until this very last moment to announce your decision, you maximizes his hope and uncertain yearning. +So what's a good schedule for his orgasms? +Well, the whole point of the tease is that the length of denial must be unpredictable, and therefore unscheduled. At the same time, it's still useful to remember, ultimately, that people still enjoy a great orgasm, so use that desire to your advantage. +Vary the frequency of his orgasms from multiple times a day (yes, even occasionally forcing him to get it up and cum again even when he doesn't feel like it), all the way up to making him wait a few weeks or more, and everywhere in between. Alternatively, she can occasionally make him cum at the very start of the day without any teasing at all, just to add to the unpredictability of it all. The most important thing though is not to get into a predictable schedule our routine. Keep him guessing and you will both love it. +\-------------------------- +Limiting His Masturbation +\-------------------------- +Once you and your partner have the basics of a teasing game established, you will both learn that it only really works when you have complete control over when he is able to orgasm. It follows that a teasing game does not work if he is able to masturbate whenever and where ever he wants. So to take erotic teasing to a new level you and your partner need to discuss his masturbation habits during the times when you are playing the game. +For most couples there are two ways of limiting his masturbation during your teasing periods, one is the ""honor system"" where you both agree that he will not masturbate on his own. The second option is to make this agreement more physically by having him wear a temporary anti-masturbation device known as a chastity belt. +Both methods result in the teased man giving up control and not being able to cum on his own, making him entirely dependent on you to allow him to cum. This creates a very erotic tension and a more powerful tease for him. +If you use the honor system method, and you agree to accept his promise not to cum without your permission, it's helpful to have a specific reminder of that pledge, like a ring, a bracelet, or a necklace, that you wear to remind him of his promise when he see's it on you. This is especially true if teasing and denial games are something the couple only play on and off. He will know when you wear the symbol that he can't touch himself without your permission, and likewise, when she removes the symbol, that their relationship is back in a ""normal"" mode. +For some couples the 'promise' method may not be good enough or very effective. Most men won't have the self control to stay 'good' in those times where all he can think about is cumming. The promise is broken and the game is ruined if he sneaks off by quickly masturbating to satisfy himself. Most all people masturbate regularly and Men in particular find that it is a hard habit to break. +Because of this some couples skip past the ""pledge method"" and resort to a more physical method of preventing masturbation by using a male chastity belt. In our opinion, such devices should be used for teasing fun, and are not seriously practical for long-term uninterrupted wear, but every couple will experiment with what works well for them. +There are a lot of options of chastity belts on the market, from more comfortable silicon models like the 'holy trainer' model to more secure options made of steel like the 'Jail Bird' from mature metal. These belts work for most but there are also more secure options made with a belt like the 'Love Jail' which will prevent the man from pulling out of the back of the cage when he is soft. +There is also something very symbolic about a chastity belt that regularly reminds him of her presence and her control over his pleasure and penis. For both him and her, there's also nothing more of a turn on than that palpable ""click"" of a lock to help make the game more fun for both the teaser and the teased. Plus if you wear the key to his belt on a necklace or on a bracelet, your partner will be constantly reminder of your control when he see's the key. +\------------------------- +So How Long Is Too Long? +\------------------------- +As far as prolonged denial, lasting over a month should be a rarity for several reasons. Normally a man would masturbate to meet his biologic needs if a relationship wasn't getting him there, but in a teasing game, that is not allowed. So in this setting, his orgasms are not just her privilege, but in some respects they are her responsibility as well. +By the same token, knowing that she would never make him go for a long time without coming removes some of the uncertainty for him and makes his orgasm schedule more predictable. So she may find it necessary to delay him for an extended period of a few weeks or a month at some points just to establish that she ""can"" if she wants to. Having done that a few times, will remind him that she's made him wait a long time before, and this in itself will be a good trigger to keep his desperation high, and his arousal intense. +One way to figure out his limits are to talk about how long he thinks he could go between orgasms. Once you get a time frame let him know that you respect it, but that you may triple this time, if you choose. This usually is much more then what a man expects and will really keep him guessing. +Remember, that hope is the foundation of the erotic tease! If she's particularly cruel, she could make him suffer through a long period with lots of teasing time, only to end that frustrating stretch of time with just a super quick orgasm. Wouldn't that be just scandalous? +\------------------------ +So What's a Girl To Do? +\------------------------ +So she's not going to let him cum for a while, and intercourse becomes more challenging because he will likely cum in minutes, if not seconds, when you do have sex. So what is a girl to do sexually in the meantime? +Easy, let him worship you, all over your body, and especially downstairs. +During a teasing game, he will be worked up and ready to do almost anything to please you. You should remind him that his focus should be all about you and satisfying your pleasure. So take advantage of this and enjoy yourself during these times and ask him to do whatever makes you happy both emotionally and sexually. +This could be giving you a bath, painting your toes, kissing you from head to foot, or giving you a long massage. Let him kiss your breasts, and bring you to as many orgasms as you like by using his tongue and his hands. You can always pleasure yourself and make him watch which will also make him super horny. All the while, she should enjoy that his hard-on rages unsatisfied, because that erection is his body's sign that her pleasure makes him happy as well. So if the mood strikes, she should feel free to lift up her skirt to enjoy some spontaneous pussy licking, some unexpected breast suckling, or his hand on her body, even if it doesn't go much further, simply because she enjoys his attentions. +Some women will miss the feel of him inside of her but with a little creativity this too can be part of the game. Use a desensitizing lubricant and a condom to take the feeling out of it for him or simply have him use a dildo on you until you reach that climax that you desire. +While giving you pleasure, He will enjoy focusing on her, and he will love when he gets to touch her body. He will also get great satisfaction in giving her as many of her own orgasms as often as she pleases. When his focus is on you, it will help remind him of how much your pleasure is imporant to him. +This intimacy is very freeing to both partners, she should enjoy telling her man exactly what she wants, and he is free to focus only on her pleasure without being distracted by his own. Remember ""tease times"" are 'her' times, so enjoy them to the fullest because it is all about you! +\--------------- +Other Benefits +\--------------- +Even if you aren't doing things related to sex, she'll notice his enthusiasm for her and his interest in her will be way up. He'll be hoping that she notices his efforts, and that she'll show her appreciation by finally letting him to cum with her at some point. Now, doesn't that sound exactly like things were when you were first dating?! +It's important to understand that she's not using a teasing game as a means to AVOID sexual interaction with him, which wouldn't be any fun at all, and isn't even a tease. Remember a tease does not have to be 'sex' it can be lots of ways that she might arouse him which can be as simple as saying something dirty in his ear to flirting with him in an everyday setting. +All the same, it's still fun to regularly tease and arouse him directly as well, just to build the sexual tension even further. Maybe she'll get a kick out of stimulating him, even many times a day, right up to the brink of an orgasm, to give him the hope that this time he may be allowed to cum. Occasionally she might just rub his cock until it's hard, and then let that be the end of it for a while. She could even let him inside of her for just a few seconds in some spontaneous place or time, just to remind him how wonderful her body feels, and to remind him what he's missing out on. The more spontaneous and unpredictable the tease, the greater the sexual tension becomes. +All in all, however he is teased, it is his yearning that gives him the desire to please her and make her happy, and that is what she should do during these times... take advantage of this desire and enjoy his attention. +\---------------------- +Head Games Can Be Fun +\---------------------- +Because you control the unpredictability of his orgasm, when it comes to actually deciding if he gets to cum that day or not... she can simply decide for herself if ""today is the day or not"". This will be empowering for her, and puts his pleasure at her mercy, which is motivation for him to be sure she is pleased that day. +But maybe she doesn't want to be the one responsible for his disappointment when she says ""no"". Or maybe she still feels guilty for making this decision even though this is ""what he wanted"". A simple solution to these feelings is to use an alternative way of deciding when he orgasms other then just her choice. +For example you could use anything from a flip of the coin, which is unpredictable enough, to a dice throw, or a card draw, to decide if today is the day. Regardless of the method you can take the decision out of it and leave it up to chance. +The more creative she is in deciding his fate, the more unpredictable the situation will be for him. Change the rules from time to time. For example you may say, I know today was your day but I've decided that make it tomorrow.......maybe. +But as with all things, everything in moderation, The couple can also decide to stop playing a tease game altogether for periods of time and the couple will switch back into ""normal"" mode for a while. She can have fun by reintroducing a tease game at any time by springing a new set of rules on him as he nears the brink of what he thought would be a regular orgasm. +Remember... unpredictability is the name of the game for teasing and denial, and soon you'll both be as giddy and infatuated as you both were when he first started to go out and date. +\------------------------------------------- +A Few Games To Have Fun With When You Play +\------------------------------------------- +One popular teasing game uses colored marbles which are drawn out of a pouch. A white marble means he is able to cum, a blue marble means he must wait. The woman will draw a marble each night (without showing him) and will tell him how she would like to be pleasured that night. When she has had enough, she will bring him close to orgasm and then when he is on the edge, she will let him know the color of the marble that she picked. If the marble is white he is allowed to cum but if it's blue he must wait until tomorrow for his next chance. The frequency of his orgasms is determined by the ratio of white to blue marbles in the pouch. After a marble is picked it is removed so that his odds get better as time goes on. There are lots of fun variations of this game where she can add or remove marbles based on his behavior, or if she has cum, or just because she chooses to change the odds. +Another game is to play the 6 senses game. (Touch, Taste, Sight, Speak, Smell, and Hear). On the first day do everything to arouse him through touch. Let him massage you, let him feel your body and play with the sense of touch. On the second day let him taste you and kiss you all over. On the third day take away his sight or don't allow him to see your body at all. On the fourth day talk dirty to him and read erotic stories. On day five wear your most erotic perfume, let him smell you everywhere but don't let him touch you at all, and on day 6 let him hear your play with yourself while being blindfolded. By day 7 he will be so aroused that he should be putty in your hands. You get to decide what's next or you can leave it to chance. +If you are experimenting with a chastity belt a very fun game is the 'magic number' game. At the start of the game, you write a number down, which is the number of days until he can cum. Once you figure out your number (don't tell him) you will put it into a sealed envelop. The rule is that he, at any time during the game, can ask you to open the envelope. If the number you wrote down is less then the number of days that have passed he is allowed to cum. But If not, you get to choose a new number and the game starts again. He will both be left guessing about the number you picked and also fully in control of his own fate which will put him in quite a mental fix. During the game, you can have fun trying to convince him to open the envelope up early, or tease him so much that he just must open the envelope. The possibilities are endless but you can be sure that his attentions will be on you. +Another popular game uses beans, over which, she has an ""unfair"" control. He starts each Monday with five beans, and throughout the week he can 'earn' more beans by doing nice things for her. During the week, if you decided to play with each other sexually, he must pay some beans in order to cum. The fun part is, as he nears his orgasm, she gets to decide how many beans that orgasm will cost him. This game gives him some sense of control, since he must decide for himself if her price is worth it or not, but ultimately she has an unfair advantage, since she sets the price. The game ends on Sunday, when an orgasms always cost just one bean. If he makes it to Sunday he is almost guaranteed to have an orgasm but if he has no beans left, he doesn't get to take advantage of Sunday's discounted orgasms, either. This gives her some incentive to tease him into enough desperation that he gives up all his beans at a much higher price early in the week. +The last game is an easy one to play with your partner, it's called ""Secret mission"" - She thinks of a nice thing that she wants him to do for her. It could be anything from rubbing her feet to cooking her a specific meal, but she does not tell him what that thing is. Then she tells him that he is not allowed an orgasm until he completes the secret mission. He will pamper her in any way he can think of until he does the right thing. Once a day, either in the morning or at night, the couple will do a ""Mission Check"" She will stroke his cock until he tells you he is close to cumming. If he has completed his mission in that day she rewards him with an orgasm. If not, she should just let him go and tell him to get dressed or to go to bed. +\------------ +In The End +\------------ +Have fun with the times that you and your lover are playing teasing games.

I will endeavor to use my decades of experience with hundreds if not tens of thousands of satisfied women (some of whom had to undergo physical therapy afterwards to regain proper use of their orgasm-weakened legs) to help those poor unenlightened men throughout the world. +Of course, some of you do not need this advice. For those of you I say, good men!! The rest of us hate you, of course, and tell women behind your backs that you are actually nice, Church-going guys who'll care for them and listen to them just to make sure that you never again in your lives see live poonage. We're guys. What can we say? +First, the act of cunnilingus should not be undertaken without some preparation. Proper physical preparation includes basic stretching exercises, especially the neck which will receive certain abuse by being yanked about mercilessly during the act. Other preparation involves breathing exercised designed to increase lung-capacity. Women, for reasons unknown, tend to hold a man's face into their nether regions during cunnilingus much as a mafia hit- man might hold a victim's face in a swimming pool - until they stop wriggling. Dying during cunnilingus is considered gauche in polite circles no matter how legendary it may make you inside countless frat houses. +Second, a man should never proceed directly into cunnilingus. There is a concept known as foreplay which should always be undertaken. Contrary to popular belief, foreplay does not consist of kissing her, smacking her ass, and saying ""You wet yet, baby?"". This is also considered gauche and may get you shivved. You should take some amount of time in kissing her and caressing her back and arms gently, proceeding to her legs. Take your time. It's not as if you have an Academy Award ceremony to attend. You don't have anything in the microwave. Take your time. Your patience will be rewarded. +Once you have given her the proper amount of foreplay, she will give you subtle hints that she is ready for more intimate attention. She may do such things as guide your hand to more intimate areas or take your genitals in her hand and softly say ""If you don't lick my pussy, I'll squeeze these things into pate"". For some reason, this is not considered gauche. Do not try to question her at this point. She is a woman on the edge of either satisfaction or homicide. +Third, move swiftly and unhesitatingly toward her genitalia. Kiss the insie of her thighs gently. Nip them softly with your teeth. Again, should she take vise-like hold of your testicles, feel free to move straight to the vagina. Use your tongue as a master artist might use a paintbrush to paint a delicate landscape. Run your tongue up and down her vagina slowly and gently, to increase her desire (again, paying close attention to any sudden and possibly felonious moves she might make to hasten you along). Part her labia with your fingertips (taking care not to use your fingernails. Try scratching your nails along your own penis. Go ahead - I'll wait until you've stopped weeping) and gently dart your tongue into the succulent inner folds. Taste her as you would the sweetest ambrosia, regardless of whether it's ambrosia there or not. Women are like wine: Some have a piquant and insouciant taste. Some are seasoned and spicy. A rare few taste of old dishwater. Suck it up, men, and get your tongue in there. +Fourth, once you have whetted her appetite, move toward her clitoris. Please don't stop and ask at this point where that is. If you haven't found it by now, look it up on the internet. But for those of you who won't do this simple thing, I'll give you a hint. It's up there at the top of the vagina and, if yuo've been following my advice thus far, it should poke you right in your lazy, uneducated eye. Don't cry. You deserved that. +Again, staying with the painting analogy, use your tongue to circle around her clitoris as you would paint the bright loose clouds of a June morning. You may, if you wish, gauge her reactions (which may include hair-pulling, demonic moaning, and head smacking) to move directly onto the clit itself. If when you do this you hear a hearty moan, you should smile and stay right where you are. You have found the Promised Land. Now, bring it home. There is an important note here. You may use your teeth, but DO IT LIGHTLY! Again, ask her to bite your penis for a comparative feeling. +One handy cunnilingus technique I have used to great effect is that of writing words with your tongue in cursive letters. Penmanship isn't important here, but enthusiasm is. Write her name, your name, or even a love letter. The more prosaic and prolific you are, the better. A woman will only rarely complain of too much cunnilingus. Vary the pressure between gentle and hard, increasing in pressure as her excitement grows. Take care not to press too hard. This isn't a test for a rat in a maze. You won't get a food pellet. You may get something - something we call a concussion when she axe-handled the base of your skull. You're warned, so don't wheel yourself over to me later crying and asking me what your name is because you can't remember anymore. +After some amount of time she will beging to invoke God and shudder. This is not the time to admire your handiwork. This is ""crunch time"". Get in there and bring that orgasm home to Poppa! Lick like you've never licked before! Sign your name with a great flourish and punctuate it vigorously! Beware of the fluid which will arrive, though. Take a quick deep breath and imagine that you're Jacques Cousteau, but for the love of all that's holy, stay in there! +Wait! WAIT!!! Beware the Thigh Clamp! Be sure that you have a full chestful of air. Once her orgasm arrives, your head will stay right where it is. No amount of frantic yanking and muffles pleading will get it out of there. You're stuck like Baby Jessica in a Texas well. I am told that there is a preparatory technique wherebly you can place your arms inside the woman's thighs which may prevent this and will allow you to do other finger-related things. I do not trust this. You run the very real risk of having your head and arms trapped betwixt her thighs. You'll be embarassed. Trust me on this. +After the orgasm, continue to lick very lightly around the clit. Show her your caring nuturing side by licking like a cat would as a small bowl of milk. Remember that the clit becomes quite sensitive after orgasm. If you've acted correctly, you may induce a second and even third orgasm. This is good. You'll want this. Again, lick lightly. You'll know you're licking too hard as she may wince, draw back, or, in extreme circumstances, fling you across the room or kick you in the forehead. Remember, in this, like in all things sexual, the goal is to give maximum pleasure without incurring debilitating physical injury. (What about minor physical injury? That can be okay in some circumstances.) +If you can do this correctly, your sex life will improve drastically. You will find yourself the object of much affection and endless sexual encounters with your woman. You may, of course, gloat to your male friends. Never do this, though, in front of her female friends or you may never get the chance to do it again." +194,Everyone Should Get Divorced Once,TatooedJohn,How To,2006-06-23,2006-06-23,2022-01-04 08:28:22,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/everyone-should-get-divorced-once,A how-to manual on getting divorced by an expert.,[''],3.89,"Some time ago I got a divorce from a particularly spiteful and malicious witch. Like most everyone, I went through a great amount of pain and suffering at the time. Eleven years after that one-sided contest though, I have significantly changed my attitude toward the hallowed institution of divorce. I now feel going through the ""big D"" prepared me for a measurably more productive life. It taught me elementary principles no less important than not kicking pit bulls or kissing rattle snakes. Even though I soloed through my divorce with little help and no idea of what was in store, it cost me plenty. It will cost you too if you are foolish enough to try this without some preparation. Without a thorough understanding of what will be happening, your chances of success are about as good as traipsing barefoot through a cactus patch without a scratch. However, if you prepare yourself well before hand, you'll come through your divorce a winner; learning things you can discover nowhere else. Why, where else could you compile such a thorough list of personal faults (with a bevy of suggested solutions, mind you), so accurately define every trait to avoid in your next wife, get such a sweeping education in poverty economics (definitely downside), and become (through necessity) an authority in every type of relaxation and meditation technique known to man? That's right - DIVORCE! +Remember the shy, bashful young girl with stars in her eyes who could only giggle at the mere sound of your manly voice? How many times did she tell you how perfect you were (when you could even get her to talk)? Those days are over, Bub. Now that the little princess has seen her lawyer, you couldn't stop her talking with a choke chain. And, her list of your faults could now fill an encyclopedia. You'll be amazed at how the helpless, naive sounding little voice she uses in the courtroom turns into something akin to a chain saw on a blackboard when she talks to you outside the chamber doors. Now is precisely the time to start using your new found knowledge my friend. While she's vulnerable and venting the years of accumulated poison in her guts, say very calmly, ""I can't understand what I did wrong!"" +Your best ""little-boy-humble"" look would not be out of place here. Then stand back and prepare yourself for a verbal avalanche of filth and obscenity the likes of which haven't been heard since the last Andrew Dice Clay concert. It will absolutely astonish you. But, no matter how tempted you may be - DON'T GRIN OR SMIRK HERE - or she could get seriously violent! One of two events will now happen if you're lucky. By the time she has finished her tirade the Judge will have ruled in your case and it will have cost you significantly less money, or she'll be unable to turn off that stream of abuse she's been saving for years when she goes back in the courtroom. The judge will then see what a really vindictive little shrew she is. Either way, you will win. Whatever you do, don't let her foul oration, as brutal as it may have seemed, go to waste. Your next marriage can only be better for the valuable insight you've just gained from your ""EX"" in her moment of weakness. Women don't expose this side of their personality very often and this is a rare opportunity to see into the opponent's mind. +When you started on the road to pick some pretty thing as your mate, Nature did not exactly equip you for success. Although she gave you a brain, it was unfortunately swimming in a sea of hormones (not an optimum state for selecting someone compatible with your PERSONALITY). Let's face it, you did not start out with exactly noble intentions when you asked this woman to get married either. In fact, marrying this woman had only one meaning to your recently post-pubescent mind at the time - SEX. The mind probing questions and subtle merging of personalities that should have happened kind of took a back seat to another kind of probing and merging. Of course, knowing now what this will probably cost, you have probably considered celibacy as a conceivable alternative (well, almost!). Now, in the smoldering embers of the testosterone forest fires, is precisely the time you need to examine this woman in detail with a calm, clear mind. You will see something you did not think existed until this very moment - a woman with whom you would turn down sex. Considering how this relationship started, that is a major accomplishment, don't you think? The last person you want to have sex with is now in front of you and embodies every trait you don't want in your next wife. Don't waste this valuable information. Burn her every feature and nuance into your beleaguered mind or you will never be able to avoid her type in the future. She may not be what you want, but if you're smart you can use her to avoid what you hate. +This is also the darling girlfriend who couldn't stand to have you spend an additional ten cents for extra chocolate in her milk shake while you were dating. She is now a woman who, if it were filled with your money, could suck a swamp dry with a soda straw. You should have gotten a hint that your marriage was in trouble when she started flexing her powers of deficit spending. My ex had some binges that would positively make congressmen look like tightwads. This same woman who supposedly couldn't remember to fill the tank with gas can now recite all of my credit card numbers from memory. There is unfortunately no defense for this. Don't even think of confronting her with it even though she still reminds you regularly about the extra dollar you tipped that blonde waitress five years ago. You can only make it worse. It's just one of the unavoidable costs of divorce that you must bear. It's been scientifically proven that if you just keep your mouth shut and take it like a man (Ouch!), it will cost you less in the end. (I'm convinced the scientist was a woman, though). +Speaking of declining finances, you can now forget golf, tennis, sailing, fishing, and anything even remotely costing a dime. All of those manly activities that used to be available to relieve the stress built up from work are definitely out. Remember the ""our money"" period, which became the ""your money and my money"" period, and how that later degraded into the ""her money and her money"" era. If it hasn't dawned on you yet, there isn't anything left for you! The only things you'll be able to afford now are those free meditation seminars and relaxation courses at your community mental health center. I know, you probably think there are nothing but old geezers and weirdo's at those meetings. After a while though you'll break down and be willing to do anything to get out of the house. Don't be surprised when you find a hundred other guys in the same shape as you at every one of these events you attend. You'll be able to get a great deal of relief from just listening to all the individual ""war stories"" like your own. Even more amazing is the fact that some of those relaxation and meditation techniques really work! One of my favorites is one where I close my eyes and picture my ex- wife's face while taking a deep breath. I then slowly, ever so slowly, count backward from: . . . 10.. 9 .. 8 .. 7 .. 6 .. 5 .. 4 .. 3 .. 2 .. 1 .. . . . . . . . . . only then imagining very slowly . . . . . pulling . . . . the . . . . trigger. The relaxation is instantaneous! +As dismal as all of this may seem, don't get discouraged. Scores of us have weathered it before you. We have without fail corrected faults, avoided entrapment by new witches of the same ilk, survived on allowances found only in Charles Dickens novels, and formed alliances with other battle-scarred veterans in the war of the sexes. All of us have come through it better men, our training ""in the field"" making us better at dealing with life. This is why we propose that everyone get divorced at least once. Our goal of more stringent divorce laws seeks only to share those sacred lessons garnered through the suffering of our brethren. Our arguments are based in somber reality. Join us and take advantage of our experiences. We need your help in our grass root's campaign for a national law mandating the end to all first marriages after five years. Our goal is to prevent anyone from slipping through the system without having the special opportunity of sharing in these life enhancing experiences. Help us stop meager attempts to avoid this litigation tango. Feeble claims of ""I'm happily married"" can be no excuse. Join the crusade to make remaining cheerfully wed a crime!" +195,Exit Only? Taking a Drive Down...,LaceySheets,How To,2001-03-12,2001-03-12,2022-01-04 08:28:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/exit-only-taking-a-drive-down,A beginner's guide to anal sex.,"['Anal Intercourse', 'Anal Sex', 'Ass Man', 'Gay Men', 'Guide Anal', 'Hershey Highway']",3.59,"**Exit Only? Taking a Drive Down the Hershey Highway** + _A Beginner's Guide To Anal Sex_ +Is your partner an 'ass man?' In my research I've found that males are either ass men or breast men, with leg men ranking a distant third. +I've also found that even an ass man can be repulsed by the idea of anal sex. Of all the third-grade humour names for anal intercourse, 'going down the Hershey Highway' has made the biggest impression on me. Haven't eaten a Hershey bar since 1987. +When you are raised in New Orleans, most heterosexual teen girls hang out in both straight and gay bars. In the latter we meet some of our best lifelong friends, gay men. We also confused lesbian tourists, but we really didn't mean to do that, by the way. +So one would think gay men would be the best source of information about anal intercourse, right? Not necessarily. One of my first questions was 'Do you have a cleansing ritual before having sex?' It seemed like a reasonable idea, safe sex and all. However, this was right before everyone knew at least one person who had died of AIDS. +I finally got the scoop, so to speak, while discussing fantasies with a Greek male heterosexual friend. I told him that the seemingly favourite fasntasy of most of my ex-boyfriends and a lot of males in general is the threesome. Preferrably two women and a male. He uttered a few words in Greek and angrily stated that, for a reason I didn't catch, this, among other reasons, is why outsiders think Americans are stupid. It seems European men think it is better to concentrate on one woman and do a lot of things most Americans would consider too kinky. +Finally I got my answer on how to make anal intercourse clean as well as enjoyable. The first step, and this is done as a couple so that both are involved and responsible, is to have a relaxing enema. I don't know about you, but I've never had a pleasant enema. Also, I don't think sharing an enema would be a big turn-on. To even try this, I would have to be married for at least twenty years. I mean I still don't urinate if my partner is in the bathroom. And I've known him for fourteen years. +So, supposedly now, after a 'relaxing' enema, you are at least very clean and don't have to worry about such a mess; you can still have nice bedding with 300-count Egyptian cotton. +Next, the male puts on a condom with A LOT of lubrication and gently, that's GENTLY, begin to introduce your penis to her anus. If she is just too tight, either from nervousness or just physiologically, you can lubricate your fingers and play around there, gently opening her up first with one finger, then two. Then try again. +The importance of slowly and gently cannot be overemphasized. The women who try it and say Never Again almost always had a long or thick or both penis rammed up there and was sore for two to three days afterward. +I don't know in how many states this position, this act is still illegal. I'm fairly certain in Alabama and Georgia, if caught, something terrible would be done to you, like forcing you to memorize the whole Bible. And to never step foot in their state again. +Personally, I find this to be an act that is consumated within the bounds of a long time monogamous relationship (but still use the condom). That way you can switch to vaginal intercourse without having to get up and wash. +A friend of mine, let's call her Sue, had been nagging her husband on and off for a few years to try anal. He was adamantly opposed. So she had a 'rehearsal' where she got on the bed, knelt and practiced holding her cheeks open while saying something seductive. It took a lot of tries to do this without falling face down onto the bed. +To make a long story short, it worked and now they use this position about forty to fifty per cent of the time. +Realize that one or both of you will need to be the clitoris flicker if the woman is to orgasm. +An interesting article written by a British author, where 'sodomy' is illegal, even between man and wife IS legal between two consensual males over the age of twenty-one in private. +Another interesting tidbit is that sodomy in Britain was punishable by death, life imprisonment or hard labour in the 'old days,' whenever that was. The degree of punishment depended upon who you were with and where you were, although there was a quaint clause about sodomy being all right after ninety days at sea! +The next article will focus on males in a male-female relationship and how the female can role play as the male with the proper toys. Until then, just think about it.

I looked the term up and was both intrigued and shocked, wanting to include sounding by one man of another in a story but having no context I could put it in. +I usually write from experienced emotions, and I didn't think I could do justice to the sounding experience in a story without having had the experience myself. I mentioned that to my steady male lover at the time, a university exchange student from Lebanon, who had been sent from Beirut by an old lover specifically for me to mentor at the local university in exchange for regular, dominating sex. To my surprise, Samir (I'll call him Samir, not the least because that was his name) said he had been sounded back in Lebanon and knew of a tattoo artist in this university town who did soundings. +I left it at that for a couple of weeks, afraid to pursue the issue, but my muse increasingly pressed me to write about sounding. I had been challenged to do so. The tattoo artist had rooms above his shop. He was a wiry, bald, but hard-muscled guy, probably in his late thirties, who was a walking billboard for his craft. I normally would not have chosen someone like him to have sex with, but he had something I wanted to acquire, and there Samir was, egging me on. He seemed as excited for me to have the experience as I was to learn of such a strange experience. +The tattoo artist told me that the key to sounding was that I remain absolutely still through the experience so that no internal damage was done—that after my urethra canal, running down my shaft, toughened to the experience through multiple use with wands—rods—of increasing thickness, the worry of damage would lessen. I was trembling. I had no plans at that point to have more than the one experience—and with the thinnest wand possible—so that I could write about it. +Seeing that I already was trembling at the mere idea of it, the tattoo artist said that the best position for me would be sitting on his cock in his lap, with my extremities immobilized. I told him I was worried about giving up full control, and his answer was that that was the whole point of one man sounding another. I would have to be submissive to his every command. And, as preparation, he would need to fuck me first and take full control of me. That I would have to be completely submissive to him; if I couldn't fully submit to him, he wouldn't provide the experience. +With Samir watching, I let the man bend me over his bed and fuck me from behind. As he did that, he gave me commands of positions to take and responses to make with my hands and channel muscles. He commanded that I hold the urge to ejaculate, and I did so, with difficulty. When he was satisfied that I would follow commands immediately, he showed me the sounding rods, saying he would use no more than two of the smallest ones on me in this first experience. Then he explained what he was going to do with them, in detail. +I almost backed out at that point, but Samir was giving me encouraging looks, and I didn't want to disappoint Samir, who had set this up at my request. Once again the tattoo artist said I'd have to remain completely still, but that I didn't have to hold off ejaculation. I could let it flow; I would just have to combat the urge to jerk while I did it if a wand was inside the canal. +He said that if I waited for the wand to be extracted, though, the experience of ejaculation during the extraction would be explosive and I could jerk freely—and probably would want to. When we had both cooled off, he sat in a straight chair, commanded me to kneel between his legs and service his cock with my mouth, which I did, and to roll the condom on him when he was hard and spray his cock and my channel with lubricant again, which I did. Then he pulled me onto his lap and cock, facing away from him. He worked his knees between my thighs and forced my legs wide apart, immobilizing them. He had Samir pull my arms around to his back and handcuff them, immobilizing them as well. He lifted and lowered my channel on his hard shaft until he was satisfied that he was in complete control of me. I had gone hard in the process. +He then had to repeatedly tell me to relax, hold still, and breathe naturally as, holding the bulb of my now-hard cock erect between two fingers of one hand and squeezing it to open my piss slit, he slowly pushed the silver sounding wand with a slight bulge at the end into my urethra canal and fed it down in a slight curve into the narrow canal. As he did so, I could feel his cock throbbing inside me, and I could tell that he was as keyed up as I was. He kept murmuring encouragement in my ear as I laid my head back in the hollow of his shoulder and whimpered at the feel of the hard steel penetrating down the length of my shaft, telling me how nice my cock was and how well I was doing. At length he told me the wand was in four inches, that he was going to twirl it a bit to give provide me the sensation of that and then extract it and replace it with a thicker one. And then that he was going to fuck my cock with the thicker one. +I gasped as he slowly pulled the rod out and almost ejaculated then. I trembled almost uncontrollably as the larger wand entered the canal and he stopped and murmured to me to relax, hold still, and breathe naturally. He was hard as a rock inside me, and I was concentrating as much on his cock inside me as on the wand. He was breathing heavily now, as much into the experience as I was. +He told me that the thicker wand was in deeper than the first one had been, but he didn't say how much deeper. He said then that he was going to start fucking the channel with it and that, although I could flow with the wand in, perhaps I'd want to warn him when I was about to come and he'd pull the wand out. He said the ejaculation I experienced from sounding would be like no other and that it might be best, especially the first time, if the wand was out, because I'd probably want to jerk and shudder as I spouted. He began moving the wand up and down, slowly, in the canal, and it did feel very much like fucking. He twirled it. Emitting little gasps and working hard to maintain control of myself, while lost in the new sexual sensations I was feeling, I felt myself ready to blow, and told him I was about to. He extracted the wand as I shot out onto the carpet, now free to shudder almost uncontrollably—and doing so. He was right. The ejaculation was extraordinary. I felt my whole body collapse into itself and go weak and trembly like a bowl of Jell-O. +Telling me how good I'd been, he stood, bringing me up with him, took two steps to the side of the bed, bent me over the bed again, and fucked me to his ejaculation. Afterward he put his mouth to my ear and whispered to me that he wanted me to come back to him for more. It didn't sound so much a request as it did a command, though, which frightened me. +It particularly frightened me because I could see where this fetish could become an obsession. And I didn't want it to become that with me. +I admit that I did go back to him a couple of times, enjoying the experience each time with progressively thicker wands, and wanting that special ejaculation, but I eventually stopped it as having been something to experience but not to practice regularly—afraid more of the emotional and mental control aspects of it than of the physical act. Fundamentally, I didn't want the tattoo artist to control me, and he would do so as long as I came back to him—and I would likely sink deeper and deeper into his control the longer I let him dominate me this way. The man who had initiated me into male- male sex had controlled me totally and used me mercilessly, and I didn't want to give up that much control ever again. +After the third and last session with the tattoo artist, I did let Samir, who dominated me and who I totally trusted, sound me a few times himself, and I felt a closer connection with him when he did it than I'd felt with the tattoo artist. With Samir, the familiarity and trust level permitted us to come almost simultaneously. Also, Samir continued practicing this on himself in my presence before we fucked, increasingly so when he knew I was aware of the practice, and it was arousing to me to watch him work himself with the sounds. +During that first session, the tattoo artist offered to sound Samir, who was willing, so that I could watch the effect on someone more experienced and able to take thicker wands longer and deeper. And from those experiences, I felt able to write stories about sounding. +My first effort was _Dark Angel Sounding_ , written on that first story Web site challenge to provide more stories on sounding. _Dark Angel Sounding_ , now commercially in its second edition, has become my gay male best-seller—and probably my most controversial work—and which, having had the experience, has permitted me to write the sexual act into other stories as one of enticing domination, submission, and total trust—and as medically safe if done properly. It remains for me a ""darker fetish,"" and I usually write it that way in my stories." +197,A Failure to Communicate,MagicaPractica,How To,2008-12-31,2008-12-31,2022-01-04 08:24:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-failure-to-communicate,Discussing sexual desires with your partner.,"['Openness', 'Partners']",4.26,"You would think it would be easy to discuss sexual desires with someone you feel comfortable enough to have sex with, but that clearly isn't the case. The simple fact that we _do_ care so much often makes it harder to make ourselves vulnerable by sharing. Someone we care about has more power to hurt us than a stranger. Similarly, it can be difficult to tell our partners that they are doing something we don't like for fear of hurting _them._ +Many times I've heard people say, ""I couldn't tell my partner I want to do _that._ What if they...?"" What? Laughed? Were disgusted? Filed for divorce? What, exactly, are we afraid of? I think we need to be more afraid of never being open enough with another person to tell them what we need and want. _That_ is what scares me. +If people aren't saying what they really want, then it probably isn't going to happen. You can't expect your partner to read your mind. However, you should be able to expect your partner to listen to your desires with an open mind, even if they veto them at the end of the night. +So how do we go about discussing sensitive topics? First, we have to establish sexual trust in the relationship if it isn't already there. Sometimes this needs a little rebuilding. +It's hard for a woman to feel sexy and do sexy things for a man when he doesn't let her know regularly that he things she is beautiful. Even the most self-confident woman needs to hear that she is beautiful to her partner on a regular basis. Men tend to say it once and think, ""she knows I think she's beautiful."" The truth is that looks and feelings change. She needs to know that you still feel that way. +""Good morning, beautiful"" goes a long way to making her day start right. She can hear she's beautiful all day long from a million people but YOU are the one she is in a relationship with so YOU are the one she needs to hear it from. Some men think, but I say it with hugs and kisses. Nope. Sorry, but she needs to hear the words. I love you is wonderful and necessary but it's not the same and doesn't necessarily make her feel sexy. +I recently heard a ""sex expert"" of some kind say that foreplay for men is pretty much the three to eight minutes before they orgasm while for women it's the twenty-four hours preceding love making. I'm not sure about the male side of the equation but the female side made a lot of sense to me. That's why it's important to touch her lovingly even when you're not interested in sex at that time. A kiss on her cheek, the touch on her elbow, rubbing her shoulders for a minute as you go by, all add up to her feeling loved and secure. +On the other side of the equation, a note to women. Men need to hear your trust and appreciation for them. Women get into a frame of thinking where they ask ""why should I have to thank him for doing something he should do anyway?"" For two reasons, so that he knows you appreciate him and to help remind yourself to appreciate him. It is so easy to take the people in our lives for granted but feeling and sharing gratitude for the good things in our lives can keep us mindful and make us feel better about our lives when everything isn't perfect, because, let's face it, when is it? +Understanding how our partners think and feel is important to the health and openness of our relationships but don't make the mistake of thinking that you know better than your partner what he or she meant, thinks or feels. You have to ask. And you have to trust them enough to take what they say at face value. That's hard, but the other way lies suspicion, mistrust and a struggling relationship. +It can be hard to put what we need to say into words. Sometimes it takes time to spit it out. Sometimes it's easier to write it out. Be patient. Build the relationship. Give it your time and attention, just like planting seeds in the garden, prepare the ground, plant, feed and water. Pull out the weeds by speaking up when something bothers you, and you will be rewarded. +Now, when you feel the trust is there, a couple of ideas for specifically discussing sexual requests with your partner. Set a context of caring discussion. If you just slip it in to your conversation, your partner might not know whether to take you seriously. Their response may be somewhat careless and less than you had hoped for. +It could be during the course of a romantic evening together or after you've just had a good time in bed together. Get their attention, let them know you're serious before you begin the discussion. +It could be a trade off. Start by asking if there's something they've always wanted you to do, something to please them. Then, whether or not they bring anything up, you can say, ""Well, there's something I've always been interested in."" +If they are less than enthusiastic at first, don't assume that's the end of it. Give them time to think about it and adjust to the idea. There are some very good articles on techniques here at Literotica that you could share. For example, if you want to have anal sex, but your partner is scared, there are articles that could help your partner understand and become more comfortable with the idea. You can find these articles using the search function of the story portal. +If, in the end, you simply don't feel that you can be this open with your partner, I have one more piece of advice. Get yourself, and possibly your partner, to a therapist or couple's counselor. You're missing out on one of the greatest aspects of having a partner in this life. You deserve that kind of trust in your relationship." +198,Fellatio Fun,redrider4u,How To,2003-06-08,2003-06-08,2022-01-04 08:28:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/fellatio-fun-1,How to please your lover.,"['Gentle Tender', 'Head Guys', 'Kiss Suck', 'Move Back', 'Run Tongue', 'Tongue Shaft']",4.21,"Sometimes we might wonder what our lover really wants and what pleasures him the most. The following is one way to please your lover…the intimate act of fellatio. The presumptions are that the receiver is male, the locale the bedroom. +As you are caressing and kissing your lover, move over to his ear, your lips brushing him, and whisper to him explicitly what your are going to do. Knowing, then waiting will stimulate and tease him some. +Move lower, stop, and pay attention to his neck while your hand softly touches his chest. Pause a moment, then kiss his chest in places while your hand(s) moves south. Do not touch his cock at this time. You can touch lightly his thighs, and around him, gently massaging. Kiss and tease your way down him until you are close enough to gently blow on him. Knowing you are so close yet not touching will raise the anticipation level for him. +Get yourself in a comfortable position, either next to him or between his legs. This is your choice, after all, you are in control. Gently touch his balls with your fingers, massaging them, rubbing them. Use your other hand to run your fingers up and down his shaft. If he is soft, this is sure to get him hard! Making the sign of ""OK"" with your thumb and index finger, start stroking his shaft. Do not touch his head. +(By the way, guys; hygiene is really important here. Also, do some pubic trimming or even shaving. Your lover will appreciate this!) +At this point, you might want to begin licking. Remember, your choice, you are in control. Start by taking one of his balls in our mouth, kissing it, sucking it, feeling his heat. Be gentle, as they are tender. Do the same to the other, taking your time. Time is on your side. Your lover might be moving about a bit, or letting you know verbally your success. When you are ready, run your tongue up his shaft and all around it, lightly, stopping to kiss him here and there. Pause, and move back up and kiss him, telling him how wonderful his cock is, and how you are going to love till he cums (use your own words, you know what to say!) Move back down, stroking him, kissing him more. Then, get very close to his head, and blow gently on it. Then, slowly, lick his head, around and around, taking any early juice, slipping your tongue into his slit. This is what really pleases your lover, so be careful and not overdue it. Stop, and run your tongue along his shaft while your thumb gently flicks his head. Run your tongue to his balls, playing with them, then back to his head. +Now, no two guys are alike. This is where you have to decide what your pace is when you suck him and kiss him. You can suck him fast and hard, then let him calm down, or take him to the end. Your choice, as you are in charge. Continue to kiss, suck him, going up and down and around. Do not feel like you have to take him all the way. Take what is comfortable for you. +At some point he might put his hand on your head, trying to guide you. If you do not want his hands on your head, reach up and lace your fingers in his and move your hands on his thighs and stomach. Soon he will cum. How fast will depend on you. How do you know when he will cum? He'll be moving about, thrusting, making noise. He may or may not tell you before he cums. But his balls will draw up some, and he will get slightly harder, and there will be some advance cum bubbling up. +The intensity of his cum will be relative to your performance. When he cums take him as deep as you can, swallowing him down. When he is done be very gentle, as he will be very tender. Another way is to let him cum on his stomach as you stroke him. Then rub his cum into his chest as you move up, rubbing yourself on to him. Lick up some cum and kiss him. All this shows your love for him. +The above is basic. You can create your own ways and plays. Performed to please your lover, fellatio is one of the most intimate actions possible." +199,Fellatio: Woman's Perspective,rougechapeau,How To,2004-02-16,2004-02-16,2022-01-04 08:28:27,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/fellatio-womans-perspective,Ideas to bring more enjoyment to oral sex.,"['Fellatio', 'Huge Turn', 'Learn Love', 'Mouth Penis', 'Parts Body', 'Penis Love', 'Pleasure Receive', 'Side Effect', 'Tremendous Amount', 'Warm Cloth']",4.5,"I love oral sex – both the giving and the receiving. In many ways I think that the sharing of oral sex is a much more intimate experience that traditional intercourse. Offering your genitals to your partner requires a tremendous amount of trust. The genitals are among the most tender and sensitive parts of your body. Rough treatment will almost always be, at the least unpleasant; at worst, painful. Sensitive stimulation, on the other hand, is almost always richly satisfying and rewarding. And I firmly believe that works both ways. +For the moment, however, let’s concentrate on fellatio – the classic word used to describe the sexual pleasure that a woman gives to a man’s genital area with her mouth and/or hands. Common terms include, _hand job, blowjob, going down_ , or simply _oral sex_. Personally, I prefer fellatio. I just like the way it sounds. +I think the key to mind blowing fellatio is the desire of the woman. Fellatio is a gift I give to myself. I love it. The reality that my lover also loves it, is an added bonus. Please don’t misunderstand. I don’t think of myself as a selfish lover. I don’t think my lover feels that way either. However, one reason that he loves it so much, when I offer fellatio, is precisely because I love it so much. It is precisely because I love it so much that I am eager and willing to offer it to him. +I think we are only trying to fool ourselves in saying that sexual satisfaction is _all_ about our partner. There are very few things in life, especially sexual pleasure, that are truly altruistic. The very best and most satisfying sexual experiences of my life have come with a partner who is mature and experienced; who clearly understands what is stimulating and provides pleasure to him; who is able, and willing to articulate his desires _and_ who pays attention to me when I share what I find to be stimulating and pleasureful. We play together, to find ultimate satisfaction for ourselves _and_ each other. Sure, a very large part of the pleasure that I receive in a satisfying sexual encounter comes from the pleasure that I know my lover is receiving, but I am also very invested in getting my needs met. When we can communicate effectively and thus offer each other what we desire, the results are always magnificently satisfying. +So, ladies, learn to like fellatio. No, not just like it; learn to love it. Both you and your lover will thank you for it. +Here are some tips. +First and foremost, think about the gift he is offering you. When your hands or your mouth are around his penis, he is at his most vulnerable. Is there anyone among us who doesn’t remember Lorena Bobbit? Think about it. When a man asks for fellatio, he is saying that he trusts you. That is a huge turn on for me. It speaks to the emotional connection that exists between us. I respond to that in a big way. +Before you begin, I think it is critical to know and trust your partner. Especially as you are beginning, you need to trust that you are in charge of this part of your lovemaking. Listen up here guys. If you want your partner to learn to love the giving of fellatio as much as you love the receiving of it, you need to let her control the show. If she feels like she’s in charge, her comfort level will increase. She will know that she is only doing what she wants, when and how she wants to. This is so important, especially in the beginning. So many women are concerned that they will gag, or choke up or otherwise do something embarrassing or hurtful. No one likes to find themselves in that situation, especially when making love. +So gentlemen, keep your hands away. Remain still. Let your lady set the pace. Your verbal endorsement of what you like and what you don’t is especially helpful in the beginning. Use your oral communication skills to direct her to what you find most stimulating. Once she begins to achieve a level of comfort, you can begin to get more involved physically. +Back to the ladies. If some of your concerns about fellatio revolve around the cleanliness of it, make that work for you. A soft cloth that is moist with warm water is a wonderful place to begin. You can even prepare it in advance and place it in a zip lock bag to have ready when you are. Washing your lovers genitals provides a fabulous starting point. Just make sure the temperature is neither too hot nor too cold. Be prepared for his response to begin immediately. It will depend on your touch, your lover’s attitude and the magic of the moment. +I love to begin with a flaccid penis. I love the feel of that soft, little penis inside my mouth. I am really turned on knowing that my mouth, my kisses, my tongue, my sucking, is creating my lover’s response. I love the feeling of his penis growing larger and larger in my mouth. Think about it, ladies. You’re running the show; directing the action. Isn’t that a turn on? It is for me. +Every penis is different. As you begin, take the time to get to know your lover’s penis. He will love the attention. Really look at it. Examine it. Impress into your memory the most unique and pleasing aspects of this part of your lover’s body. Talk to him about what you see and your response to it. +Every man will respond to your positive comments about his penis. They all love to hear, “Your penis is beautiful. Your penis is perfect for me. Your penis is so big and strong.” You get the idea. I’m not suggesting that you lie, but compliments on this part of his body, will further intensify his response to you. +And don’t forget his testicles and his ass. Many men don’t realize that sexual stimulation includes these parts of their body. Experiment. See what responses you are able to evoke. +As you begin this initial voyage of discovery, it will help tremendously if you and your lover talk to each other. Encourage him to tell you what he’s feeling, what he like likes and doesn’t like, being as specific as possible. Pay attention not only to the verbal message, but also the nonverbal cues. In the beginning, all this may seem contrived and forced, possibly even a bit uncomfortable, but I guarantee that in taking fellatio seriously, both partners will receive long-term benefits. +A few more ideas about technique. +Use a variety of different stimuli. You can encircle his penis with your whole hand. Or try taking it between just your thumb and first two fingers. You have your mouth, your tongue, your lips; just never your teeth, not even in jest. It’s not funny. Or your breasts. One advantage of large breast is the ability to cushion them around your man’s penis. With some lubricant, either natural or otherwise, the slipping and sliding between your breasts can be very stimulating. +Remember to vary the pressure. Alternate between a soft and gentle, barely there touch and something more firm and intentional. This one is a little trickier. Different men tolerate different amounts of pressure. Start out softly and build up slowly; all the while taking time to make sure that he is comfortable with the amount of pressure. But whatever his range is, use the full range. That will make it more pleasureful for you also. It’s tough to sustain the same touch over a period of time. If you vary it, he’ll usually enjoy it more and you’ll be able to go longer, which he surely will enjoy more! +One thing that I think is pretty universal with guys is “the slipperier the better.” Use a lot of moisture. The easiest is your saliva. Practice working it up in your mouth so that you can generate a significant amount on demand. Be aware that some different types of drugs, OTC or prescription, include dry mouth as a side effect. Check into yours. You may choose to ask your physician for other alternatives without that side effect. Artificial lubricants are always an option, but natural is always better in my opinion. Plus you never have to worry about the time or place. You’ll always have the right equipment with you to indulge your appetites in a quickie – anywhere. +Deep throating. Who among us hasn’t hear that term and flinched? Ladies, be honest. That one is a bit more unsettling. But guys absolutely love it. In most cases, unless you throat is just unusually deep and not particularly sensitive, deep throating must be learned through repeated practice. Like that guys? Don’t expect to take his penis into the back of your throat and tickle your tonsils the first time. Among all the different techniques in fellatio, deep throating takes time. And it requires a tremendous amount of trust. If you attempt to force this, gentlemen, it will more than likely backfire. Let your lady take as much as she can. If you are patient with her, encouraging her progress without demanding more that she can comfortable give at the moment, it will evolve naturally. +Ladies, relax. The more relaxed and comfortable you are, the more you will be able to take inside your mouth and down your throat. You might consider practicing with a banana before trying it on your lover. You _can_ learn to control your gag reflex. It is both an automatic reflex and a controlled muscle function. It just takes practice. +After you have practiced enough to be comfortable taking his penis deep into your mouth, to the back of your throat, learn to move your mouth around his penis very slowly and gently. The sensation of his penis literally tickling the back of your throat with subtle movements, is a huge turn on for me. The fact that he enjoys it so, make it all that much more pleasureful. +And for those of you who are really comfortable, the best position for the greatest depth is coming toward your man, with the top of your head pointed toward his bottom. Think about it. You need to bypass his pubic bone for maximum penetration. If your face is toward his, your forehead will hit that bone before you can achieve maximum depth. +Here are two positions that work well. +Lie on your back on the bed, with your head at the very edge; maybe evenly slightly off the bed. Have your lover stand at the side of the bed. Ease your face between his legs and take the whole length of that beautiful pleasure tool into your warm and waiting mouth. +Or, have him lie on his back on the bed. You kneel to the side of him or even over his face; but with your head pointing to his feet. Bring your wet and welcoming mouth down onto the full length of his incredible penis. +Either way, I guarantee he’ll be delighted. +Those are the biggies to remember, from my perspective. A couple of other things. +Don’t forget his testicles. Although this is another area, where guys can be really different. The level of sensitivity in this area varies greatly between men. Start softly, building up slowly to the pressure that you learn he prefers. +The perineum. Girls, do you know what that is? The tiny strip of skin between your vulva and your anus. Guys have it too; between the bottom of their testicles and their anus. And behind that little area lies his prostate gland. Pressure here usually heightens the intensity of an orgasm. Try it. You may find you both like the results. +And of course, the ass. There are equally as many nerves around the tiny rosebud opening of an anus as there are on a penis or in a vulva. Some guys like to be stimulated there. Some hate it and don’t want you near it. Find out which preference your lover has. If it is the former, you can chose to use your fingers or even your mouth, to provide the same types of stimulation discussed earlier in relation to the penis. This though is definitely an area where the aforementioned warm cloth would come in handy. +Finally, before we conclude, we need to consider the climax. As you learn the fine art of what you and your man enjoy and find most pleasurable, you will find that you choose to engage in fellatio for the sheer pleasure of the act as part of your repertoire of lovemaking skills or as an end onto itself. Either way, or best of all, a combination of both, are wonderful. +Sometimes you may really want to offer your lover fellatio, but when it comes time for his orgasm, you may want him to come in your vagina. Tell him that. Let him know, if possible before the climax, that you have a preference. And guys, if that’s what she wants, respect her request and honor it. +Personally I love the feeling of my lover’s orgasm in my mouth. I can feel the hard contractions begin deep in his testicles. His penis grows even bigger than I ever imagine that it can be. I can feel the surge of semen coming through the full length of his penis and shooting out into my mouth. And then as, his body quiets, I can feel the last little contractions signaling the final release. It is a very powerful moment. The vulnerability and trust between us is the most incredibly satisfying feeling. +To swallow or not to swallow – that is the question. I’d say that most guys don’t really care one way or the other at this point. From my perspective, swallowing is cleaner and easier, but hey, if that’s not your thing, this is another spot where that warm cloth might come in handy. If you swallow, don’t forget that there can be considerable differences in the taste of semen. From man to man, from one period of life to another, there can be a marked difference. That’s normal and natural and not cause for concern. +One more thing. Your orgasm. Ladies, with fellatio you can go either way. There are clearly positions that can allow your man to stimulate your genitals with either his hand or mouth simultaneously. If that’s what you want at that moment, go for it. I would encourage you to occasionally choose to concentrate on his orgasm. My focus on the physical sensations of my lover’s orgasm is a huge part of the pleasure that I receive in fellatio. I find it changes the experience considerably, if I am moving toward orgasms also. Buy hey, life is short. Make room for it all. And guys, if that’s what she says she wants, respect her request. This is not the time to try to persuade her differently. Believe me, if both of you work this right, there will be plenty more opportunities for other orgasmic experiences for you to share." +200,Female Edging Challenge,AllthingsOmaterial,How To,2021-01-01,2021-01-01,2022-01-04 08:28:30,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/female-edging-challenge,Timing and prolonged orgasm.,"['Edging', 'Erotic', 'Fetish', 'How To', 'Masturbation', 'Orgasm']",3.9,"**SETTING ASIDE SOME PLAYTIME JUST FOR YOU** + **Female Timed Edging Masturbation Challenge** +Most of my stories and instructions are an attempt to create scenarios that assist you on your path to orgasm. With such a straightforward objective, all that seems to be required is some good imagery and the proper length text to get you there in an appropriate amount of time. Obviously, three minutes would be far too short and three hours, likely too long. Also unique to this challenge is that there will be a multitude of themes that I will suggest but your memories and imagination will complete them. Some may fall in your 'goto' categories and others may touch on ideas that you had not previously focussed on. +In the event that a particular suggestion yields an unpleasant memory, that is obviously to be avoided and substituted for a positive image. With that one exception, you will concentrate exactly on the themes you are told to, when and for how long you are told. This means that you MUST NOT begin touching yourself until you have been instructed to begin! To succeed in this challenge it is important that you concentrate on the suggested themes and not let your mind wander off in directions not contained on the below provided 'orgasm roadmap."" +In this challenge, the objective is to cum exactly when you are told -- not a moment before nor a moment after. Moreover, it is important that you follow the instructions to a tee so you must be mindful to pay attention to the setup that is required and to have a block of uninterrupted time set aside so there will be no distractions. Although masturbation is typically a solitary affair, in this challenge you will be aided by my directions which obviously means you have chosen to give up a certain measure of control to another. + STEP 1: The Setup +This is the work that you need to do to get started (and finished). +1\. Set aside a sufficient block of uninterrupted time to pamper and pleasure yourself -- you deserve it. This will not be a 15 minute quickie! +2\. Have at the ready a comfort food of your choice if you wish. Nothing too complicated or messy. +3\. Have an appropriate amount of your favourite beverage or whatever assists in putting you in a comfortable and relaxed state. +4\. Choose the perfect location for the coming experience. Maybe music and candles set the mood. You choose the setup that will most enhance this exercise of developing your fantasy world. +5\. You will need your cellphone and, or preferably a laptop. +6\. If you like to use sex toys or aids it would be handy to have whatever you need at easy reach along with lube so that you don't have to take an unscheduled break for anything you may need in the heat of the moment. +7\. A comfy bath towel. +8\. A stopwatch, egg timer or countdown clock capable of being easily reset. +9\. The idea is that once you begin, you will follow the instructions uninterrupted until the end. +10\. You will require a minimum of 90 uninterrupted minutes to complete this challenge. + +STEP 2: Online Prep -- Finding Porn Images: +Even if porn isn't your thing or your usual thing, it will be a required element of this particular masturbation experience. +You will need to create a folder and download some materials in advance so that they are easily accessible when you are directed to rely on them. +Your masturbation research begins with the need to download and save a number of images that will aid in imagining the fantasies which are described below. +It is recommended that you collect a series of nudes which will include both males and females. The choices are entirely yours but thought should be given to the following possibilities: first, last, and former lovers; the one(s) that got away; the one(s) that you've often imagined but will likely never experience in the real world; neighbours, coworkers, or the taboo choice of a friend's partner who is off-limits; other choices might include a complete stranger or a celebrity fake nude. Perhaps your theme will focus on a profession such as fireman, doctor or masseuse etc. +Individuals and acts that would normally be outside your 'goto' subject matter -- these are safe in this environment and will assist in expanding the breadth of your fantasies, perhaps way beyond any acts you would be brave enough to try in the real world. +Finally, though obviously you are the best judge of what would usually colour your fantasy world, remember that I will be describing a wide range of images and activities and the photos you have chosen, be they full nudes or more focussed body parts, are designed to assist in colouring the descriptions provided. Refer to them whenever they might heighten a memory or fantasy as you follow these instructions below. +When your preparations are complete you are ready to begin. Remember that you must follow each and every instruction without fail. Further, it is very important that you do not read ahead to the next instruction until you have completed the previous task. + +CHALLENGE 3A: RELAXATION AND PREPARATION +SET TIMER 20 MINUTES +Run a warm bath or shower depending on your preference. Once the water is ready climb in and... +START THE TIMER! +For the next 20 minutes you may wash, shave, relax, or simply daydream -- the choice is yours. However you choose to spend this time, you must not touch yourself in anyway that might intentionally or accidentally cause sexual stimulation. +When your time is up you are to dry off and dress yourself simply in a pair of panties and a light top. Now you may move to your bed or wherever it is that you have chosen as your comfy place of self pleasure. +­ + +CHALLENGE 3B: MEMORIES OF SELF-PLEASURE +SET TIMER FOR 15 MINUTES +Put yourself in a comfy position on your bed. You will spend this period of time thinking exclusively of your own history of masturbation. In this time bracket you may touch yourself but only over clothing. No direct skin to skin contact with your breasts, genitals or bottom. Reminder, there are many fantasies below and you are NOT permitted to cum until you reach the very end so pace yourself! +START THE TIMER! +Allow your hands to caress your own beautiful body. Touch those spots that only you could know. Maybe it's the earlobe or the back of your neck. A gentle caress over the top of your breasts or panties. +Remember how and when you first learned to pleasure yourself. Was this self- discovery, online research, tips from a close friend or a combination of various sources? Or was the discovery of self-pleasure simply an unexpected but happy accident? Were you successful the very first time or did it take multiple attempts until you achieved success? Perhaps it was at the instruction of a boyfriend or the demonstration by a close girl friend. +Think back over the years to the many routines you have enjoyed all on your own. The things you have thought of. How your fantasies have changed over the years. +Maybe a time you just couldn't get through the day without at least a quickie! Was it a specific influence that brought that about? Did it force you to seek out an unconventional space? Possibly a school or workplace bathroom, a restaurant or changeroom. Hotel room on a business trip or the guest room at a friend's house during a sleepover. A car trip while concealed under the blanket in the backseat or maybe while driving even? Of course, the possibilities are endless but the current focus is to be exclusively about your own memories as opposed to the new ideas that may arise below. +Still focussing on self-pleasure, think back to the most powerful orgasm you have ever been able to create for yourself. Do you remember that moment? Where were you and how did you touch yourself? Think back to was in your mind or what the thoughts and motivation were that created that one instance that to this day, stands above the rest. +Looking back, consider how many different ways you have been able to bring yourself to orgasm. Is your usual routine fairly predictable or do you like to strive for variety and experimentation? +Are you content with your private routine or is it time to challenge yourself and explore the outer limits or your self-potential. Just what might that entail? Different positions. Different locations. Fingers, pillows, hard surfaces, clitoral stimulators, dildos, vibrators, a water faucet or maybe everyday items that you experimented with. +What about that daily record -- was there a day you remember that you were able to make yourself cum even more times than you thought possible? These are the types of thoughts that should focus your imagination in this particular introductory session. + +CHALLENGE 3C: LETS GET (MORE) PHYSICAL +SET THE TIMER FOR 15 MINUTES +In this session you will strip bare and though you must continue to pace yourself and NOT orgasm until instructed, you may now begin to pleasure yourself however you desire and with no further restrictions other than the cardinal rule that you may NOT cum --- yet! +The focus of this session will be on 'firsts' and other memorable early experiences. +START THE TIMER! +As your hands caress your body, think back to those early experiences that introduced you to the beauty of sex and all of the pleasure it can deliver. The awkward exploratory moves and the mixed emotions that come with wanting and craving while completely lacking the experience to know just what to do and where it all might lead. +Of course, the challenge may have begun with just trying to find a location to explore with another. The common locales might include a basement or the backseat of a car. Maybe it was a friend's house or possibly behind a church under the cover of a wood lot. Or did your firsts occur in the darkened parking lot behind a bar? These are the details known only to you. +Think back to the carnal desperation of the act of dry-humping. Maybe this was the compromise act that allowed you to stall before moving to the next step. Do you recall that first time your breasts were caressed by another? Think back to the moment that partner first popped the button of your jeans or snaked their hand inside of your panties. Making out. Your first hickey. The feeling of the first time someone else's fingers entered you. Did they know what they were doing or were they as inexperienced as yourself at the time? +Was that first contact with a penis met with fear or excitement or perhaps a mixture of both? And what about finally taking the plunge to full on intercourse? The first time. The second time. Those times when you were really starting to get good at it. Did it leave you wanting it even more? Of course, there are so many firsts of so many acts. You are the best narrator of your history of firsts and those are the thoughts that are to fill your mind during this timed session but -- do not cum yet! It is time to change gears again! + +TAKE A 10 MINUTE BREAK +Put on a gown or housecoat or stay as you are but get up and leave your chosen spot. For this brief respite you may do as you wish but do not stimulate yourself in any way. When this break is finished, return to your comfy place and prepare for the last two sections. + +CHALLENGE 3D: A CHRONOLOGICAL SUMMARY +SET THE TIMER FOR 15 MINUTES +This section is fairly straightforward. Whether it is challenging or not will depend upon your background. In this section you are to required to consider the individuals you have been with over the years. It isn't necessary what level of interaction you have had with them, just that they were a sexual partner at some point in your life. As best as is possible, consider a memory or more of each individual in the order in which they played a part in your life. Depending on how large or small that sample is will dictate how long your thoughts may linger on any one person but remember that the goal is to at least give a moment's thought to each and every one. +START THE TIMER NOW! + +CHALLENGE 3E: New Territory +SET THE TIMER FOR 15 MINUTES +For this final challenge which has had you waiting and delaying all of this time... it is time for something altogether new. You are to use these prompts and suggestions to fill your imagination while you work up to the moment of orgasm -- when the timer runs out. +This final section may lead you to areas that would not normally enter your fantasy world. In this section they should with the underlying assumption that it is of your choosing and within your control -- unless of course it is more comfortable to imagine otherwise. +Of the various topics below, you can either follow them in order or in this final instance, quickly read through and pick one that is most helpful in getting you across the finish line. Enjoy! +START THE TIMER! +Take (perhaps) a different direction and imagine a scenario with you and one or more partners of the same sex. Would it be a scenario of your making or one in which you have been seduced? Would the action be mutual or would you find yourself subject to the aggressor? Knowing what pleasures you, are you able to give that pleasure to another woman? Are there moments that might be more intense than the experiences you have had with the opposite sex? What are the biggest curiosities you would want to satisfy? +Take a page from a crazy scenario wherein you find yourself after a good night of partying on the back of the team bus with three or four of the players who had shown a great deal of interest in you over the night. Who is dominant and who is subservient? Are you fucking each of them one after another or maybe all at the same time? Do you see them as faceless bodies or can you picture the faces and the details of each? Are you in charge and lining them up by order of the size of their cocks or do you simply submit willingly to their desires? +Perhaps you might imagine yourself in a voyeur scenario. You peeking through a crack in the old wooden floor that reveals the privacy of the tenant below in their most private setting. Upon making this discovery do you do the right thing and forever look away? Or do you become the addicted voyeur who can't stop watching their every intimate act both when they are alone or with others? Do you take it one step further and record their every move for you later pleasure sessions? +Or, maybe it is you that is on display? Do you let it be known that you are aware of watchful eyes or do you play coy and let yourself be spied upon? Considering the possibility, have you ever purposely shown just a little too much? Is there that one memory where you absolutely knew that you were being admired and you let more of you show than you normally would? +WHEN THE TIMER ENDS YOU MAY ORGASM! + " +201,Females Submitting - Males Dominating,PolySwingerWife,How To,2021-05-13,2021-05-13,2022-01-04 08:28:31,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/females-submitting-males-dominating,This is what (most) women want.,"['Dominant', 'Female', 'Male', 'Men', 'Spanking', 'Submissive', 'Women']",3.59,"Females Submitting, Males Dominating, Spanking. Why would any woman want this? And what does it mean to submit, anyway? +My husband likes to consider himself a cuckold, a submissive. But he fails in the submissive category. I'll tell you why. If my husband were submissive, I'd be able to do anything I wanted, without any fear. The thing is that I do fear losing him. But why? Yes, my husband loves to watch me have sex with other men, but the men have to meet a certain standard for him to be satisfied with them. +For my husband to be able to enjoy seeing me with another man, the other man has to have certain characteristics. +The other man has to be masculine. My husband has to at least see the other man or men as a kind of equal. My husband was in the military, and most of what he did he can't even talk about. And he has black belts in two different martial art disciplines. My husband isn't shy. He never shows anger. People always remember his name. And my husband is extremely intelligent. My husband owns a very successful business. He's a cyclist. He's taught Tantra. And he always seems to get what he wants. +A lot of people have asked me how I can have sex with other men and still see my husband as the best of the best. The reason is that I will do anything for him. But why? What is so special about my husband that makes me want to do anything to please him? +My husband fits in anywhere he goes. And he is who he is, no matter where he is or who he is around. My husband is very confident. He knows what he wants, and he most often gets what he wants, without much push back. My husband can converse, intelligently, about almost any subject. And nothing ever gets to him. If he doesn't like something, he changes it or does something to make a change. He isn't afraid to tell it like it is. He's respectful, but he will call a spade a spade. +If my husband likes you, it's obvious. And if he doesn't like you, he'll tell you that he doesn't like you. And he'll tell you why. My husband is not affected by tears. He is attracted to people who make things happen and don't whine because things ""happen"" to them. +My husband lives his life the way he wants to. He's a nudist. He's a swinger. He is very athletic. He doesn't care what people think about him. Yet, people always respect him. My husband is a gentleman when he needs to be. And as a boss, my husband is very well-liked. His employees have stayed with him for years, not just because it's a decent job, but because my husband shows them that he cares about them, and their wants and needs, as well. +We can't go anywhere without people knowing my husband, by name. My husband is always calm, even when all hell's breaking loose. Yes, my husband lets me make a lot of decisions, but he does know how to say no. When he is okay with something, he allows it. When he isn't okay with something, he lets you know. My husband stands firm on his beliefs, yet he is also open to other people's beliefs. Although he may be open to other people's beliefs, my husband doesn't look for validation from others. +When I ask my husband why he loves me, he tells me that he's chosen to. It's a choice he's made. He sees value in me. And he sees me as an equal partner in our relationship. For my husband, cuckolding is not what defines him. Like competitive fighting, cuckolding, for my husband, is something that he does in his life. It's not his life. I've said before that I feel good that other women do not find my husband attractive, but that's not true. I tell myself that to make myself feel better. If other women aren't attracted to my husband, then I have nothing to fear. The problem is that my husband becomes popular anywhere we go. +Rules that apply to other people often do not apply to my husband. He can do things other people just can't. And it blows me away every time. I am always impressed by what my husband can get away with and what he can accomplish. I have never known my husband to back down from a challenge. And there's a difference between a challenge and a dare. +My husband has an air of confidence when he walks. And I have never known him to say the word can't. The people he hates most are ""wasgonna"" people. My husband believes that you either do or you don't. There's no ""wasgonna."" My husband believes that his word is his bond. I have never known him to break a promise. And I trust him. My husband has never given me a reason not to trust him. +Even when it was that time of the month, my husband kept a cool head, even when I went off. My husband never raises his voice in anger. And his words are well chosen. My husband is an entertainer. He has been to 38 different countries and he's done almost everything. And, although my husband loves to tell stories about his life and adventures, he isn't a braggart. He also enjoys hearing about other people's life experiences. +My husband is a generous man. He knows that by helping others reach their goals he is leaving a legacy. Many men have told my husband that they wish they had a wife or girlfriend like me. And it's nice to hear that other men wish they had what my husband has. My husband lives life to the fullest. He has very few, if any, wants because he already has everything he's always wanted. +My husband loves me, but I know he doesn't need me. My husband, although he doesn't need me, knows that I need to feel needed, and he makes me feel needed. +My husband is the man other men come to for advice, be it relationship advice or financial advice. Other men respect my husband. And other women see him as a gentleman. My husband spoils me. And he is very romantic. My husband is optimistic. His daily goal is to make today better than yesterday and to pave today a better tomorrow. +My husband sees failure as an opportunity to grow and learn. He doesn't let failure get him down. My husband sees every day as a gift because he knows you only live once, and you don't always get a second chance. +My husband worships the ground I walk on, but he knows that he isn't beneath me. My husband has told me time and again that he could never be with a woman that he didn't see as his equal. My husband knows that the way to be successful is to empower others to be successful, identifying talent in individuals and harnessing their efforts. +My husband doesn't know everything. And, that being the case, he is willing to ask for help when needed. My husband constantly builds me up. He tells me how attractive I am, a lot. And he isn't afraid to tell me, or ask for, what he wants. +My husband is influential. He's able to get people to do things he wants them to do, easily. Why? Because he's charismatic. You can't help but like him. My husband has no problem complimenting others and recognizing other's abilities. My husband doesn't apologize for his desires. And he sees sex as an important part of life. My husband embraces both his masculinity and his femininity. And he's a giver. My husband remembers people's names and details about their lives. And he is active, not reactive. +My husband compliments me in front of others. And he doesn't talk badly about others. He doesn't judge others, and he lives life on his terms. My husband lets me do what I want, but he will also call me out when there is a need to. My husband's silence can mean more than his words at times. And I am never left wondering if I have made him happy or not. When my husband isn't happy with me, he tells me. And he tells me how what I've done has affected him. My husband helps me push my limits and boundaries. He helps me grow. +Because of my husband's qualities and characteristics, he makes me want to submit to him. And I have not found this with any other man. And the fact that he will call me out is his form of spanking me, even though he will actually spank me, which I think is hot. My husband doesn't see anything sexual as intrinsically masculine or feminine. +I'm not saying that what women want is my husband. What I am saying is that women want from men what I have found with my husband. They want a man who isn't afraid to be a man. And they want a man who knows how to make a woman feel like a woman. Even the most militant feminist will tell you that she doesn't hate men. She hates men that are weaker than she is, mentally, emotionally, and intellectually.

He will need encouragement. Constantly remind him how he's given himself to you and how you cherish the sacrifice -- but he needs this training to really become yours. Associating arousal with pain and frustration is vital. +There are some things that are mandatory tools to train your mate. These fall into the core categories below. These are the things that truly get into your mates psyche and allows you to dominate them thus making them into a more affectionate and living thing. There are other things that we can do just to push the boundaries of our control, although these are not necessarily they can help reinforce the dominance and at the very least could bring enjoyment and pleasure to you. The fall under the auxiliary category. I will give a brief break down in the next couple chapters of why each is important along with some suggestions for the activities. +Core categories: +* Pegging +* Humiliation +* Cum eating +* Denial/edging/chastity +* Punishment +Auxiliary categories: +* Watersports +* Long term chastity +* Sissifying +*Pegging* +This is one of the most intimate forms of dominance. Penetrating your mans arse encompasses many of the core values of this guide; dominance, humiliations, affection, pain, submission and more. +Although there is many stimulating parts of pegging that your man will enjoy it may be hard for him to accept at first. This is where your dominance comes out. It won't be comfortable for him at first, after all you have to break down all those societal taboos. If done right though he will begin to crave it as a sign of your dominance and he will even enjoy it. +To not fall into the trap of being a Dom solely for his pleasure though this is where you will need to change up the size and width of the strap-on at times to continue to cause some pain just to make sure he knows your in charge. Forcing him to suck the strap on before taking his arse is another way to take some of the fun out of things for him and show your dominance. +Below is some suggested scenarios. These often work well will bondage and ties because it creates a form of helplessness that reinforces your control of the situation. +Level 1: (gentle force) +\- Fingering his arse +\- Using small butt plugs +\- Gently fucking his arse with a small dildo +Level 2: (forceful) +\- Using a medium sized dildo +\- Combining pegging with verbal domination (whose arse is this) +\- Fast pace and deep fucking his arse +Level 3: (submission under threat) +\- Using a large sized dildo +\- Not tying him down with as many ties +\- Have him suck the dildo before fucking his arse +\- Have him put on your strap for you +Level 4: (Full submission) +\- Have him hold his own ass open on demand while you fuck his arse +\- Tell him to get on his knees and suck your strap +\- Randomly tell him to bend over and fuck his arse +\- Have him jerk off while fucking his arse +Level 5: (Complete domination) +\- Have him ride your strap on +\- Fuck his arse missionary +\- Force him to cum without touching his dick just by fucking his arse +*Cum Eating* +On the surface your love's semen can seem like an annoyance. It's messy, it tastes bad, and it stains linens. But actually it is a great tool for training & dominating him. The most common way to use it is to force him to eat it. Normally after a man ejaculates he wants to just relax and not think. He wants nothing to do with sex for a while nor does he have much of a desire to please and listen. So having him deal with his cum after an orgasm is something unnatural to him. He absolutely won't want to do it. Therefore, it will require your firm command and his submission. This is great training since he will be doing many more ""unnatural"" things later. +It may take a couple weeks, but when he can swallow his entire load you will know that you truly have dominated your man. Here are some quick suggested scenarios. +Level 1: (gentle force) +\- Take A dab of his cum and make him taste it +\- Kiss him with his cum on your lips +Level 2: (forceful) +\- Scoop cum into your hand and force it into his mouth +\- Take his cum in your palm and rub it in his face +Level 3: (submission under threat) +\- Have him lick cum from your palm +\- Have him lick it off your body +\- If he cums in your pussy or ass make him eat the creampie +* Punish him if he doesn't obey(see level 2 also again) +Level 4: Full submission +\- If he's wearing a condom, pour its contents into his mouth. +\- Tie his legs above his head and make him cum in his own mouth +\- Put his cum in the freezer into ice cubes and than have fun (tell him he can either have it melt in his mouth or ass +Level 5: Complete domination +\- Have him cum on your strap on and make him suck it clean +\- Make him cum in a glass then drink it +This is a lesson of your domination and his respect of you. He will NOT want to do this, but he will on your command. Demand it! As he is doing it, enjoy it. Make this a positive event, and FROM THIS POINT FORWARD YOU MAKE HIM EAT HIS CUM. +Like other categories, this is a critical one to complete domination and will help train him to be more open to other activities like water sports. +*Humiliation* +All of the other core activities incorporate this core item as well. We have made it a separate category though because it deserves extra attention. To properly break your mate and get deep into their psych. +The various levels will also open up your chance for other parts of training. Such has having your mate clean your pussy after peeing will ultimately open them up to water sports. You won't need to fully experiment with full out water sports but should at least push some boundaries to fully train your mate. +Level 1: (gentle force) +\- Calling your mate names (bitch,pet,sub,slave, etc) +\- Having you mate sign a sub contract +\- Write names on slaves private parts (your name, degrading works like slave, bitch, etc) +Level 2: (forceful) +\- Wear chastity cage in public +\- Put panties & bra on ur mate +\- Make your mate send you pictures of ideas of punishment for you to perform +Level 3: (full submission) +\- Have you mate crawl around with you on their back +\- Take pictures of your mate in compromising positions +\- Spit in your mates mouth and face +\- Put mate in humbler and crawl to you +\- Attach anal hook to leash +Level 4: (Complete domination) +\- Have your mate accompany you to the bathroom and lick you clean after pissing +\- Have ur mate wear an anal plug for hours while running errands +*Denial/edging/chastity* +A crucial part of breaking your partner is making sure they are gaining to much please. Denial and edging is a great way to increase focus on you and prolong the session. Adding a chastity cage to the session not only assists in the psychology of breaking your mate down but also forces their body to focus on whatever torment you choose to inflict. Also the cage allows u to hook a lease to your mates cock and have other fun with it. +There aren't recommended stages such as the other core sections but here are some ideas: +\- Repeatedly getting your mate aroused than using ice to force them soft +\- Locking your mate in chastity until they are broken. +\- Teasing your mate by licking them while they are in a humbler or other form of torture +*Punishment* +Punishment is the aspect that goes thru all the core categories. Here we will touch on some popular punishments that we haven't already discussed above. Combing multiple punishments are particularly effective. +\- wax play (drip wax while your mate is tied down or while pegging) +\- Clothes pins (attach them to you mates balls and body ) +\- Whipping, spanking, flogging & smacking (balls, cock, ass face or any other place desired) +\- Using icy hot on testicals & anus +\- Anal hook play +\- Humbler +*water sports* +The act of peeing on your mate can be thrilling and give a huge sense of power because it breaks social norms, humiliates and dominates at the same time. While not necessary to break your make could be a good addition and an extreme fetish for some. Here are some ideas: +\- start by peeing on your mate in the shower +\- Pee while riding their face +\- Make them knee and kiss knowing you are about to pee on them +\- Hold their flaccid penis then tell ghem to start peeing. If their cock starts to harden with your touch, have them stop peeing until they are fully erect, then lie them on their back while holding their cock and direct the urine on their chest and face. +*sissifying* +Some enjoy stripping their mate of their manhood entirely. Forcing you man into wings, dresses and heels. This is also a common fetish. +\- try starting forcing your mate wear panties in public +\- Move onto full dress in home +*long term chastity* +Long term chastity is a good way of keeping your mates mind on you. For health reasons (if that matters) it is usually only suggested for those living together. Start off the program with a couple days than weeks and so on. +* bonus ideas* +\- The male sub is to put on a dry condom and proceed to cum into the dry condom. Put cum filled condom on dildo or strap on being careful not to spill a drop, poke small hole in tip of +\- condom and proceed to face fuck male sub forcing him to suck and eat out all cum, when all cum is sucked out, sub is to remove condom licking clean both condom and cock clean. +\- The male sub is to participate in various training exercises during the year including but not limited to; ball stretching, cuckold and femdom hypnosis, ass dialation exercises, kneeling and begging position classes, blowjob and cum consumption lessons, humiliation and pain training, cuckolding as well as other various physical and mental conditioning exercises to learn to bring more pleasure and pay homage to Mistress." +203,Feminization Triggers,lushusboobs,How To,2004-10-25,2004-10-25,2022-01-04 08:28:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/feminization-triggers,What makes feminization such a powerful experience?,"['Cross Dressing', 'Feel Feminine', 'Feminization', 'Make Feel', 'Men', 'Men Enjoy', 'Real Life', 'Role', 'Role Playing', 'Women Experience']",4.43,"**Why Feminize?** +In BDSM fantasies I get to play out the reverse of female objectification and sexism and turn the tables on men. In real life, I am not a sexist. I like men and see them as my equal unless they give me reason to believe otherwise. I am able to separate fantasy role-playing from my real feelings as a person. I know that in my real life I would never make a person into an object, label them or humiliate them as I do when I feminize them, however, in fantasy, feminization and objectification are quite therapeutic. +Probably all sorts of experts would argue with me about the harmful effects of BDSM, but I'm not really worried about what the experts say. Experts are sometimes full of hot air. Shame and objectification are so closely tied to our sexual experience, and not in a particularly positive way. However, exploring the shame, objectification and negative rigid gender stereotypes in role playing rids it of some of its' power. +BDSM in the case of cross-dressing or feminization is like a powerful political satire. People can and do have a sense of humor when performing BDSM cross gender role playing scenes. In acting out the stereotyped behavior, the participants become changed and transformed. Cooptation of behavior, words, and labels of a culture, specifically the sexist or rigid gender traditional culture, is a method of deflating or transforming it into something else. Using language like bitch, or using stereotyped behavior in role paying is a kind of cooptation. Cooptation is a powerful political and cultural tool which can be a catalyst for both personal and social change. For example, the word Queer is a label which has been transformed into something more positive by the gay community, and is cooptation of hate speech for the purpose of reclaiming it and changing its' cultural connotations. +There are certain triggers which are sexual hot buttons for a male submissive some of which I have taken from gender stereotyped culture and transferred to my feminization sessions. They are my own personal hot (anger - not sexual) buttons, and they seem to translate into something very exciting for men. In experimenting with feminization domination fantasies, I have learned some of the things that really send men over the edge. Not every man is the same, of course. And some of the techniques I like to use will work on some but not on others. + 1. **Objectification** \- turning the tables to make a man feel like a piece of meat, a boy toy, or a thing to be used. Using a man, if only momentarily in sexual fantasy, is very therapeutic for me as well as exciting for him. **Ways To Objectify Him** + * Dress him like a slut + * Offer him $5 in exchange for his services + * Pinch his butt + * Wolf whistle as he walks by + * Tell him that he is just a sex toy to get you off. + * Put a cock cage or chastity device on him and only unlock it when YOU need pleasure. + * Treat him like a party boy, i.e. dress him in a thong and make him serve your guests, and provide them with WHATEVER services they need. + 2. **The Housewife/Whore Dichotomy** \- Women's roles are so rigidly defined in traditional culture and there is a sexual tension regarding whether a woman is a good girl/mother/wife or a slut/whore. Many cross dressers play out the roles in their fantasies. Men who are into feminization enjoy playing out these housewife and whore roles, and they do it with a flair. I have to say that the amusement I feel at their flaming behavior only adds to the arousal that I feel. Seeing a man walk in your shoes, literally, is a great aphrodisiac. And the act of satirizing negative stereotypes is an incredibly empowering release for me from the power that they hold over me. +I believe that their fetishizing of rigid gender roles is a way of understanding and changing them. Very few women feel the sexual freedom which allows them to express themselves sexually without feeling guilty. It is a little unfair that men can be the slut without paying for it. Making a man into a feminized slut is very satisfying to some women because it is a way of acknowledging that men can be sluts too, and freeing ourselves of the double standard that says that it is not okay for women to express themselves sexually. I believe that sexual repression is the basis of much evil in the world and has extremely detrimental effects on the human psyche. + **Role Playing the Housewife/Whore** + * Make him dress like a maid and perform housewifely duties like cleaning, laundry, and cooking. Some Mistresses go as far as making him wash out their panties and hose by hand as an act of humiliation. + * Make him feel like a whore by trading him out to other Mistresses. + + 3. **Shame** \- I don't like shame because I think it is destructive not only for women but for men as well. Women experience much shame with regard to sexuality. But the fact of the matter is that shame within the context of BDSM has the effect of producing a brain chemical cocktail. I'm not sure exactly what chemicals are involved. Maybe it is a cocktail of adrenalin, serotonin, norepinephrine, endorphin, etc. But being shamed or humiliated by a Mistress can induce a sexual rush. Not all men get the rush, but for those who do, it is a powerfully addictive drug. +Humiliation is also a way of desensitizing ourselves to the things which shame us and trap us in guilty, conflicted, self-defeating behaviors. While the main aim of humiliation is sexual gratification or control, I feel that it has an eventual positive effect psychologically by getting us out of the shame cycle by desensitization, though at first it may be a little difficult to deal with. + **Ways to Humiliate** + * Use negative labels like whore, slut, cocksucker, boy, girl, bitch, etc. + * Make him feel embarassed for getting turned on by something which is taboo to him. + * Treat him like a child or be condescending. + * Punish or discipline him publicly. + * Make him do things which he finds humiliating or taboo. + * Humiliate his dick size; make him feel like he has to try hard to be man enough for you. + 4. **Pain** \--- I'm not into extreme pain, only mild discipline. But pain induces a similar chemical reaction like shame. Men are socialized to be impervious to pain, but often are drawn to it as a method of letting go of control. Pain can let a man know that you are in charge not only of his orgasm but of how he pleases you, how fast he performs, etc. **Mildly Painful Pleasures** + * Nipple pinching + * Hot wax on the body and genitals (hold it up high so as not to burn + * Paddling + * Cropping (lightly) + * Flicking nipples, cock, etc with a finger + * Mildly squeezing genitals * + * Nipple clamps + * Cock leash i.e. leather cock harness with dog lead + * Penetration of his ass with a finger or two, a small butt plug, or a small dildo + + 5. **Vulnerability** \-- similar to pain in that men are socialized to be invulnerable. But men have a great need to let go of their control and be vulnerable and get in touch with a more feminine side. I think it is helpful to them in connecting with their emotions and in connecting with others. But they are so caught up in the rigid role that society expects of them that they need a safe place in which to let go which does not spoil their image in real life. They often do not want to let go of control in front of their wife or girlfriend. Being feminized gets men in touch with that vulnerability element and they will express emotions and feelings that they don't express normally. It allows them to experience a more feminine type of pleasure which is about opening up and receiving rather than conquering and penetrating. **Ways to Help Men to be Vulnerable** + * Treat him like a girl in every way. Help him to feel feminine. + * Encourage him to vocalize in a feminine manner during sex. Tell him to moan lightly like a girl. + * Emphasize the fact that you are going to ""take"" him and not vice versa. + * Get him to spread his legs like a slut. * Call his ass a pussy and his cock a clit. + * Make him feel that you are in control and that you WILL without a doubt penetrate him, remembering the BDSM guideline of Safe, Sane and Consensual. + * Talk to him about the sensation of stretching him and opening up his tight hole. + * Pin him down or tie him to make him feel helpless. Please be careful when tieing though because some people have anxiety and could have a serious panic attack. If there is any nervousness at all about bondage or if you do not know your play partner well, I would recommend escapable bondage like velcro cuffs or quick release mechanisms. +I feel that the feminine and masculine orgasm are very different in their nature. When I am role-playing as a male, I imagine my clit growing and becoming elongated. I imagine myself actually penetrating the sub with my clit and the strapon just becoming the substitute or proxy for my pleasure. The orgasm that I experience is much different when I imagine myself with a dick than when I am in a femme role. +I think that the male role reversal experience is similar. To open up, spread your legs, and take rather than give is a uniquely feminine experience and has a totally different feel during orgasm. Not only is the prostate being stimulated producing a deeper orgasm, but the emotions associated with that type of orgasm are very different. +It is quite possible to have an orgasm while strapping it on. There are vibrators which you can buy that attach to the middle strap. Some people even get turned on enough by the friction of pumping and the rubbing of the strap that they can cum without additional devices. +Men sometimes forget that there are more ways to satisfy a woman than just with a penis. Women can experience a very happy and lusty sex life without ever being penetrated with a cock. Extremely feminized men often do not desire to penetrate their Mistress any more. They often begin to have lesbian fantasies and want to satisfy their Mistress in a more lesbian manner. Of course there are also men who cross dress or become feminized who are still very macho and very much in love with fucking and penetration. There is a wide spectrum of cross dressing behavior. +I believe that it is also a misconception that only gay men like being penetrated. Many heterosexual men enjoy being penetrated anally. And it is not just effeminate or feminized men who enjoy being penetrated, either. Bull doms can be receptive and take a cock or a strapon. Many of them like being penetrated. However, I think even they will agree that the feeling of an ""innie"" orgasm is much different than that of an ""outie"" orgasm. +Breaking rigid stereotypes is always powerful, and through the experience of feminization or cross-dressing people can act out negative stereotypes thereby transforming them. Cross dressing is not only pleasurable sexually, but emotionally as well because it seems to empower its' participants. Cultures throughout the ages have recognized the power of cross dressing and have adapted cross-dressing as a method of satire and social change. Powerful spiritual leaders such as the Berdache in native cultures cross dressed. +All of us have shadow natures and an animus or anima that drives us unknowingly. Getting in touch with the inner feminine, or the inner masculine in my case, is a powerful way of balancing the inner self. Being a feminization Mistress gives me a sense of accomplishing something very important and powerful for men psychologically as well as socially in how they interact with others after they have experienced feminization." +204,The Fiendish Guide to Punctuation,OmegaZone,How To,2004-07-29,2004-07-29,2022-01-04 08:40:02,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-fiendish-guide-to-punctuation,A complete guide to punctuation in English,"['Comma', 'Complete Sentence', 'End Sentence', 'Examples', 'Exclamation Point', 'Met Donna', 'Punctuation', 'Question Mark', 'Rules Apply', 'School Boys']",4.03,"Fiendish Guide to Punctuation V1.3 + This guide is intended to provide a basic but complete, or at least I hope to make it complete over time, guide to punctuation in the English language. It will be primarily targeted at authors who write fictional stories using the standard story style. It will include subsections pointing out the differences in US, UK and Canadian standards; almost everybody uses one of the three. +I will keep adding items to this guide as I think of them, or I am asked about them. + SECTION 01 +This Section covers: (Commas, Semi-colons; Question Marks or Interrogation Points? Exclamation Points! Apostrophes’ and Periods.) The core of the written language. +First is the trusty, ever-useful Period. In the UK and US it is most commonly referred to as a full stop. Periods are used to end sentences and indicate long pauses in speech. Periods are only used singularly, with one exception; When you need to indicate a long pause, it is acceptable to use three periods in a row, this is also know as marks of omission. However, this is only ever acceptable during speech, and not during narration or story telling. A single period represents a three beat stop. Three in a row indicate a stop of six to sixty beats. Anything longer should really be mentioned using an aside or a descriptive. You should never use a period after any other punctuation except a parenthesis or quotes, and those are special situations I’ll cover in a later section. +Here are a few examples: +This sentence is simple. When you speak and need to take a long pause… this is what you use. “What is happening…” is an example of a broken idea. “He was… green with envy! Yeah that’s right. +Next come the Question Mark (It sometimes referred to as an Interrogation Point) and the Exclamation Point. Both follow the same basic rules, and are the only termination punctuation you can double. A question mark ends a question like the name implies, and an exclamation point ends an exclamation or, in other words a sentence that happened in surprise, or with great emotion. +Now, since we have all seen a question asked in exclamation, how do you punctuate that? Well you have two choices. First, just use a question mark, or second, use both a question mark and an exclamation point. Yes, you can use both. Now comes the question of intent, because you can both use ‘!?’ and ‘?!’ So what’s the difference? The Exclamation first is used for lesser surprise in the US and UK, while the second reflects greater surprise, however in Canada it tends to be reversed, especially in bilingual communities. However I must point out that even though these are both correct, most books recommend avoiding them because they look bizarre on paper. I don’t use them often, but I have used them myself. +Here are a few examples: +What is happening here? Huh! What the hell happened to you!? Who the fuck are you?! +The apostrophe is both the easiest and the most difficult; I know - how can this be true? Well, the rule is easy; you use an apostrophe to replace letters removed from a word or series of words (called a contraction) and to indicate possession. +Examples of contractions are: +Can not becomes can't Did not becomes didn't Could have becomes could've +Examples of possession are: +Jack's coat. (Which means the coat belongs to Jack) Canada's coastline. (Which means the coastline belongs to Canada) +As you can see, nouns always take an 's to show possession. However, pronouns never do. A pronoun (he, she, it, for example) followed by 's is NOT possessive, it is a contraction. +Examples of contracted pronouns are: +He's means He is or He has. She's means She is or She has. It's means It is or It has. (Note, this is the one most commonly written incorrectly) +When you want to show possession with a pronoun, you replace it with another word called, surprisingly enough, a possessive pronoun. (His, Hers, Its) +Examples of pronouns are: +His meaning belongs to Him. Hers meaning belongs to Her. Its meaning belongs to it. (Again, note this one because it is often written incorrectly as ""it's"") +I will write a more in-depth Guide about pronouns soon. It will cover them in much greater depth. +So, an apostrophe always goes between letters to show either a contraction or possession when owned by a singular possessor. However, sometimes you need to show possession by more than one possessor. How do you do that? Well, you put the apostrophe on the other side of the s. It should be notes that you may also use a ‘s after the s, but it is not as elegant.. The previous rule also applies to any noun ending in an s. +For example: +The girls' dresses. (meaning the dresses belongs to the girls) The boys' school. (meaning the school to which these boys go, rather than a school just for boys) The Jones' garden (meaning the garden belongs to Mr and Mrs Jones) George Harris’ house (meaning the house belongs to George Harris) The anus’ muscular rings (meaning the rings that belong to the anus) + The last part of basic punctuation is mid sentence pauses, lists and inserts, for which we all use commas, but often we use them improperly and should actually be using a semi-colon. So how do you tell which is the correct one? I mean after all, they have similar purposes, so how do you pick the right one? Well, it’s actually simple; however, when not to use them is a little harder to detect. A semi-colon has only one intrinsic use, so let’s start there; a semi-colon is used to splice two complete sentences, which are related, together. I will write another guide on grammar, and you may want to use it to analyse any concept I use here. However, the definition of a sentence is very simple: (A sentence is a word or group of words that conveys a complete idea.) It is also acceptable to use a semi-colon when forming a list; however it is not as common a thing to see as a comma. +Here are a few examples: +It was the last thing he wanted to eat; he'd tried it once and hated it. No one was hurt in the incident; the only real damage was to a few panes of glass. The computer had a very fast processor; it was a top of the range model. +So now that we understand when to use a semi-colon, let’s see when a comma is appropriate. The function of a comma is to indicate a pause for the reader to take a breath, but must also be used correctly. The first use for a comma is to separate a dependant clause from a complete sentence, this can be done either by placing it at the beginning or end of the sentence. +A comma is also used to insert a complete sentence, or a clause, within a sentence. You can also use a semi-colon for this, but the effect is different. It is also used to separate two clauses joined by a conjunction. However, you have to pay attention to where you place it, and, what it will do to your sentence’s structure. It has an enormous affect on how the sentence is read and, what you are saying. When you vary the placement of the comma you change how the sentence is read, and perceived. +Placed before the conjunction, it separates the first part from the rest, creating a greater emphasis on the end of the sentence. Placed after, it creates the opposite affect, subjugating the end of the sentence. However, if you use it both before and after, you are purposely breaking the flow of the sentence; generally this is used to highlight the affect of the importance of both parts independently. +Here are a few examples: +When you see a nice girl, and want to get her attention, try to find a reason to speak to her. If that should prove difficult, don’t give up. A little persistence can prove useful and, who knows, she may actually come and speak to you. It is, however, very important to make a move if she does not. +The last major use for a comma is in writing lists. For lists you may also use semi-colons as noted above; they can be substituted directly for commas when writing a list. You use it to split items in a list apart and to indicate that you are not done with the list. Used either independently, or in combination with an ending conjunction, it has a powerful effect on how the reader perceives the sentence and the items in the list. +Here are a few examples: +She had bread, eggs, ham and mayo on her shopping list. The salad was green, fresh, crispy and best of all, cheap. Tom, Dick, Arnold, John, get over here now! +A colon can also be used to introduce lists, generally used only on long lists or idea lists. +Here are a few examples: +The steps in writing are: brain storming, planning, writing a first draft, writing a second draft, correcting spelling and logic errors, writing a third draft, correcting and revising that draft, writing a final draft, correcting and proofreading that draft, then producing a final copy. The main parts of a motor are: Pistons, valves, belts, pulleys, pumps and bolts. +Section 02 +This section Covers: (Colons: “Double Quotes” ‘Single quotes or inverted commas as they are called in the UK’ Dashes or hyphens – and (Parentheses) ) The core of expressing speech, thoughts and quoting. +The easiest way to approach these is to look at the way you insert speech into a sentence and, since that varies depending on where you were educated; there will be three separate sections. The first will be the US standard, the second will be the UK one, and the last will be the Canadian method. There are only minor differences but they should be mentioned. It is to be noted that these rules only apply to normal writing. Movie scripts, newspapers and plays use different rules which are independent of country. +In the US, you always use double quotes to indicate speech, and can introduce it either with a comma followed by a space then a double quote, or by colon followed by a space then a double quote. Just remember to pick one and stay true to it. +Here are a few examples: +Terry said, “I am really happy we met, Donna.” “I am also happy we met,” Donna replied. Terry smiled as he said: “I had fun.” “So did I,” replied an enthusiastic Donna. +You will also note that you punctuate the sentence identically if you use a post speech quote. This style is also used for thought. +Here are a few examples: +Terry thought: “Donna looks so good in those shorts.” “I really like this,” Donna thought as she watched Terry. Terry’s mind filled with the question, “I wonder what Donna is thinking?” +In the UK the above rules apply, however the single quote can also be used. All other punctuation remains the same, both in speech and thought. +However the Canadians and British have adapted an interesting way of punctuating speech and thought, they use double quotes for speech and single ones for thoughts. Again all other rules stay the same. +It is also to be noted that since you can quote another person’s speech while talking, like recalling events or storytelling, that the same rules should be used. But you should always remember that since quotes can be layered, that they must ALL be closed also. +Here is example paragraph: +John looked at me and said, “Like I was telling you, she came up to me and said: “I don’t want to sleep with you yet. My pappy always said, “If a man loves you he will wait till you’re ready,” and since I am not ready yet, you’re waiting.” Well at that point I thought, ‘Great, what am I going to do tonight?’ but as I was trying to figure that out, she started to strip. I didn’t know what to do.” I thought, ‘Maybe I should say something.’ But before I could act John turned and left. +Quotes and double quotes can also be used to indicate text taken from another person’s works. Parenthesis are generally used to outline objectives in informative works, they should be really rare when you write stories. The last part of this section is Hyphens or dashes. Their main use is to link two words together, but they are also used to indicate speech in script writing. So I will end this section with a brief look at script structure. In a play or movie script, you indicate speech by using a dash after listing the speaker, and you use parenthesis to indicate stage directions. I am writing a more complete guide on speech at this time. I will post it as soon as it is ready. +Section 03 +The section covers: ( Ampersands& underscores_ slashes/ back slashes\ number or hash signs# dollar signs$ cent or penny signs¢ asterisk* commercial As or at symbols@ and tildes~ ) All the exceptions and non writing symbols. +Ok, you may ask; if these are all non writing symbols, why do I mention them? Well, even though they are not designed for it, some of these symbols are still used from time to time when you write. I don’t use them, but others do, so I will explained them briefly. +The Ampersand& is sometimes used as a replacement for and, and is perfectly acceptable for use in titles and proper names except in the UK, where it is heavily frowned upon. +The At symbol@ as we all now call it is sometimes used as a replacement for the word at, and is again acceptable for use in proper names, such as Seti@home, except in the UK, where it is heavily frowned upon. Of course it is used for email addresses. +The Underscore_ is not really used, but can be used to indicate blanks in speech, either from static or interruptions or to indicate a desire by the speaker for the person spoken to to fill in the blanks. Again I don’t use it but you can if you want to. +Asterisks* are sometimes used to indicate a badly pronounced syllable or vowel. +Slashes\ are used sometimes when indicating a doubled word by the speaker. It can also be used for a crossed skill or noun. +Here are a few examples: +He/she/it was looking at me. He was a plumber/electrician. +Again I don’t recommend it, but it is sometimes used. +The Back slash/ is never really used, but can sometimes be used as a substitute for a slash. I don’t recommend its use. +The tildes~ are used sometimes when introducing a conversation that has already begun before the reader is able to hear. +Here are a few examples: +“~and that’s why I had my balls varnished.” “~but anyhow, what happened to yours? I mean your husband.” +It’s rare to use this one, but it can be useful for impact. +There are also recognised punctuation groups, or as they are now called Emoticons, that have migrated from email like: +;) :) :-) : + ; + :- + ;( :( :-( +They are just now starting to appear in compositions, if you choose to use then, they should be considered as insert that have no effect on the punctuation. +The last category is all other symbols, you can use them, but realise that it implies laziness or bad skill. Using them is up to you, I personally do my best to write them out in words, even dollars and cents." +205,Fifty Words? How To,oggbashan,How To,2013-01-24,2013-01-24,2022-01-04 08:28:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/fifty-words-how-to,Non-erotic version of How To Write a Fifty-Word Story.,"['Author Advice', 'Flash Fiction', 'Flash Fiction How-To', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing How-To']",4.2,"* * * * * +Copyright oggbashan January 2013 +The author asserts the moral right to be identified as the author of this work. +This essay includes works of fiction. The events described here are imaginary; the settings and characters are fictitious and are not intended to represent specific places or living persons. +* * * * * +1\. Basics. +It seems so simple. +All you have to do is write a story that is fifty words long. No more. No less. +The title, which should not be long, is not included in the fifty words but any title longer than a couple of words wouldn't be in the spirit of a fifty word story. +The site I write for has a minimum length of 750 words so I have to produce sets of 15 fifty-word stories. Writing one fifty-word story is fairly easy. Fifteen of them is more of a challenge. +Even a fifty-word story needs a plot to work effectively. The plot must be very simple and direct. Boy meets girl is a good choice. There is little space for development into conflict and resolution. +It is a good idea to include a twist in the last sentence, to take the reader's expectation of the ending and turn it around. +2\. Mechanics. +2.1. The first draft +A fifty word story is easier built up from fewer words than cut down from more. Writing a one hundred word story and reducing it to fifty is probably harder than starting with thirty words or so and building to fifty. +Here is an example, starting from thirty: +We decided to keep chickens. We bought a dozen hens and a cockerel. +Months later we still had no eggs. We asked a farmer. +His verdict? Our cockerel is gay. +That is thirty words. It is the basis for a fifty-word story. It isn't perfect. It isn't fifty words and there are enough words available for some more interest, so I added a new sentence of eight words: +Every morning the cockerel woke us at dawn. +But why did we decide to keep chickens? I added: +so that we could save money and help the environment +to the first sentence. That made 49 words. I could add one more word -- Three at the start of the third sentence, totalling 50 words. +Eggs +We decided to keep chickens so that we could save money and help the environment. We bought a dozen hens and a cockerel. +Every morning the cockerel woke us at dawn. +Three months later we still had no eggs. We consulted a farmer friend. +His verdict? Our cockerel is gay. +There is still some things wrong. +The reader should have to wait for the punch-line. The words ""Our cockerel is gay"" should be on a separate line. +The first sentence is 15 words. That is too long and too complex for a fifty- word story. Short terse sentences work better. Perhaps it could be broken up and re-ordered: +We wanted to save money and help the environment. We decided to keep chickens. +The two short sentences total 14 words. I have saved a word. I could just add a word at random, an extra adjective, but in fifty-word stories, words are precious. Each one must be there for a reason. So, why not rewrite the second sentence? +We would produce our own eggs. +If you can, the easiest way is to write something very close to the fifty words as the first draft. This would become easier with practice. By the time you have written a fifteen times fifty-word set you should have a reasonable idea of what would be fifty words, and what would not. +The final version now reads (fifty-words excluding the one word title): +Eggs +We wanted to save money and help the environment. We would produce our own eggs. +We bought a dozen hens and a cockerel. +Every morning the cockerel woke us at dawn. +Three months later we still had no eggs. We consulted a farmer friend. +His verdict? +Our cockerel is gay. +2.2. Word count +I copy and paste the draft into a Word document I have called 'fiftycheck' and then use 'tools' to count the number of words after each draft or revision. I delete the counted document and return to the draft to adjust if necessary. +I count the words up to twenty times before the draft is completed. Using Word is much easier than counting on the screen. +2.3. Editing +Once you are happy with the draft it is a good idea to leave it for a day or two while working on something else, perhaps another fifty-word story. +Look at the story you have written. With so few words it is important that every word is there because it has to be. Could that word be replaced with something stronger? Could that phrase be deleted and replaced with a couple of words, leaving a few words to use elsewhere? +Editing a fifty-word story is similar to editing a poem. Perhaps a fifty-word story IS a poem. +3\. Story Ideas/Plots +If you have difficulty finding story ideas or thinking of plots, then fifty- word stories will be hard work. One of my 750-word submissions will use fifteen plot lines. +If you have no idea how some authors produce so many stories, avoid fifty-word stories. You could use a lifetime's ideas in a few sets. +If you have more ideas than time to write them, fifteen short stories will relieve the pressure and let you concentrate on writing longer stories with more involved plots. +4\. Recommendations +If you think that you could write fifty-word stories then try. It may turn out to be no more than the writing exercise that is the usual reason for fifty- word stories. Even so, the effort might help you with normal length work, showing that complex sentences and extended metaphors are not essential to convey a mood, a location or a story development. +The hard part is to move from writing one fifty-word story to writing fifteen. You may learn and practise the technique but there is likely to be a point at which you run out of steam. It may be the fifth, the eighth or the twelfth story. If you are really stuck, save the file and leave it for a couple of days, weeks, months or until you have a story you KNOW will fit into fifty- words. +If you can't get beyond one or two stories, post them as poetry. +When you feel comfortable with the format there are other possibilities. You could write fifteen stories around the same characters as fifteen episodes in their relationship. You could even write fifteen fifty-word 'How To's. +I'm not the only person capable of writing fifty-word stories. Any author should be capable of attempting them. Have a go. Good Luck! +* +* +Examples +Here are three examples of my fifty-word essays on ""The Nude"". Think about how you might want to change them. Could they be improved within the fifty-word limit? +1\. Celebration +The nude body is wonderful. Throughout history artists have attempted to show the nude they saw. +If you love, celebrate the delight of your lover's body with what art you have. +Your talent may be with words, with paint, with a camera, or just with loving touch. +Tell your enjoyment. +2\. Acceptable if Art? +The Victorians loved art works showing nude women but needed the justification that the nudity was artistic. +Artists such as Alma-Tadema met the need with nudity in antique settings such as 'In the Tepidarium'. +Had it been contemporary it would have been obscene. Classical and Art, it was beyond reproach. +3\. Modern is rude +Modigliani painted nudes in his own particular style but represented real, not idealised, women. +His paintings caused a scandal when exhibited. Unlike Alma-Tadema's classical purity, his paintings showed nude women in contemporary domestic settings. +Nudity couldn't be modern without being pornographic. Yet Paris was the home of the dirty postcard." +206,Finding Your Slave,Joseki Ko,How To,2004-06-19,2004-06-19,2022-01-04 08:28:37,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/finding-your-slave,Recommendations for obtaining property.,"['Found', 'Girl', 'Life Years', 'Slave']",4.23,"Finding a mate is one of the toughest processes you will ever go through in your life. It can take years of hanging out at bars, joining a church, or participating in other singles activities. You hear stories all the time of people searching for a decade to find what they want. +Finding your slave is even tougher. Now don't get me wrong if a few sessions with a slave is all your after, you know wham bam thank you girl. Those relationships are easy to find. But truly finding the girl you want to own for the rest of your life can take years. +Once you've decided you want a slave not a wife, you have to decide how you want to start looking. I have found that submissives are more common than slaves and may generally be picked up in any Walmart. Even though you can search the Walmarts of America that's a time consuming thing. Even then when you've found one you have to spend some time figuring out if it's a workable situation. +I bought one girl at an online auction and that turned into a nightmare. So I started looking online and found a myriad of BDSM personals. I asked a lot of the older guys who had used these services, how long it took them to find their slave. I was gratified to learn that on the average two to three years is all the time it took them to find a girl. That can be considerably less time than going person to person. +I checked a lot of personal sites and the best one I found is Alt.com. It allows you to view literally thousands of women all across the world. You can test the waters with them via email. The site does cost. To get the most out of it you need to spend about 100 dollars and buy a gold membership. +I found this site to be the largest which gave me a large pool of potential candidates, plus I they allow you to tailor your search in very specific ways to find what you require. +Now to the important part, submitting a profile. The most important thing I can say to you about this is don't lie. Lying gets you laid yes, but it does not find your slave. A bdsm relationship is built on trust and if you lie or post a picture that is not of you, the odds are you will not be able to keep the girl. Try to put everything you are, everything you need and everything you want into this profile. You only have to write it once so make it good. Post a PIC on it. No nudity, nudity is for slaves. Make sure you save a copy of your profile, Alt can and does lose them from time to time. +Now we get to the fun part. Start looking for women. Use the search engine feature and tailor your search to find what you want. Don't restrict yourself geographically. Anyone in the world can be your slave. +Don't burn yourself out writing the girls messages. I wrote a little form message. It read 'Greetings girl, I've looked over your profile and I like what I see. Why don't you take a peek at mine and we'll go from there.' By the way I should mention spend the extra cash to let standard members view your profile. You'll get many more responses that way. +It also helps to keep track of who your sending these to. I lost one very promising girl because after we'd been talking for a week I accidentally sent her another of my introductions. She was hurt that I was still looking for other women and stopped talking to me. +Update your profile every day. Alt puts the most recently updated profiles first in their search results. If you keep yours on the front page of that list many more women will see you. +Ok now were talking to women. Here is your chance to be you. Any slave who becomes yours will participate in whatever your interested in. So wax poetic about it. Also develop yourself some tests. I found out early that women who were incompatible with me would not pass two tests I developed. +My two tests were both essay tests. The first test was the corner test. Make them get naked and put them in a corner for 15 minutes. Then they come back and write you a 750 word story on their corner time. It is easily possible to write 750 words on the experience. Everything they felt, everything they thought, and all of the wonderful physical sensations. Sore knees, aching back, and a hot face from keeping it pressed to the wall. A lot of girls will lie to you about this. Those are the ones to avoid. They are not really submissive and have an agenda all their own. You will soon be able to read these essays and know who is lying to you. +My second essay was about service. I hired a maid service to come in and clean my apartment. I paid extra for the spring cleaning option. I asked questions about what the hardest and least cleaned things were. I found 10 items. I then made this into a test. I told the girls they had to spend Friday night and Sat morning cleaning. At noon I would email them my list of ten things. They would report back to me on a pass/fail basis. Sometimes they got rewards more often they got spanked and cornered. Then when the reward or punishment was over they had to write me another 750 word essay. +These were very helpful in sorting threw the chaff to find the good slaves out there. From those two test we'd talk for awhile and if everything I found out I enjoyed, I'd have them come down for the weekend. I personally met over a dozen women this way. I also found that a lot of the women, though great slaves were not for me. And that is okay. Your looking for your slave not just any slave. +After you've found the one you want to keep do what it takes to get her under your whip. When I found mine I sent her enough money to take a bus and most of her possessions from Florida to me in Tucson. +My search took two years, eight months and a whole lot of trying before I found my girl.

Sounds too good to be true? Well thousands of satisfied dommes can't be wrong! +Findom is a fucked-up version of a simple male-female dynamic: Men use money/power to get women, women use men to get money/power. But certain men want to take it way beyond that: They want to become a sort of zero-friction conduit for this money/power exchange, so that it flows through them directly into the hands of the woman. What does the slave get from all this? The delightful feeling of freedom from responsibility, of having to make decisions. +If a man chooses to buy a woman a gift, he still has will, he is still a responsible agent. But the findom slave wishes to absolve himself of all responsibility: So he needs to be _forced_ to buy the woman a gift. So he needs to be dominated to such a degree that he becomes a machine, a human ATM, a robot, brainwashed and completely remotely controlled. +Think you're up to that, ladies? Can you take over a man's bank account, his will, his whole life entirely? Well, once you read this, I believe you'll find it a breeze. Because the beautiful thing about findom is, the only type of men you're going to work on are those who approach You in the first place, who are predisposed to become slaves. And these guys are going to collude with you all the way in your assault on their life, because they want you to succeed even more than you do! In fact most of them will positively _beg_ you to ruin them! + **But isn't it morally reprehensible?** +Yes it is. +Financial domination is considered an extreme form of femdom fetish. All I know is that, pretty obviously, it's an addiction that can seriously fuck up your life. It's not really 'extreme', it's just very addictive, and can quickly ruin you financially, just like gambling can. And like gambling, it can probably drive some poor bastards to suicide. +If I told you how much money I spent on financial dommes last month, you'd probably think I was lying. It's a HUGE percentage of my income, well over half. And my gross income last month would have been pretty good if it weren't for that goddamn GT (Goddess Tax). +So, yes, in my opinion, it is morally reprehensible. In fact it's downright evil. And in spite of my affection for evil, in this case, I mean plain _evil_. Yep, evil, like Ebola, not 'illicit evil' like cocaine, or 'naughty evil' like a big box of Belgian chocolates. +But hey, ladies, I know how it is these days: you really need the money, little Malka needs a new school uniform, and you have this great deal on high- speed Internet right now. Whatever helps You sleep. So, Evil, Shmevil: It's findom all the way until them bills are paid. And probably for a while after. And what have guys ever done for you except fuck you over all your life? Yeah: It's payback time. Literally. +Ok, so the Big Guy upstairs may not like it, but He'll forgive You. And if he doesn't, what does he know, he's a guy. Maybe you should switch to Hinduism and start worshipping the Goddess Kali. Now _there's_ a Domme for you! + **Know Your Slave.** +This is where a lot of online findoms go wrong. They hear about this great scam called 'findom' and think they can just wing it. But they don't really get anywhere because they don't know the psychology of a slave. This is where I can help. +What kind of guy gets addicted to financial domination? A guy like me, that's who. I'm not that common a male type, but believe me there's enough of us to fuel a thriving business. +Okay, so I just searched for 'findom' in Lit stories and read a couple, both, it seems, by pro dommes (or maybe wishful thinkers). The typical illiterate comments on one of those stories vary from the bemused 'wtf' variety to the comically mistyped 'you must be sic' [sic]. Also, the usual cry of 'where's the sex?' +Well, call me sic, but those damn stories (not particularly good ones, I might add), worked for me: I mean they got me really hard. And I hate myself for it. +Yes, I'm a perfect example of a findom slave. So study me well, ladies. +There was a time when I didn't know about findom. But I've always been into female domination of some sort. And I do mean always: I've had femdom fantasies since I can remember (my earliest one, when I was literally a little child, were triggered by the tall, naked store-mannequins in a local dress shop). +I've carried my femdom fetish with me all my life, and it's been a secret from my friends, family, wives and girl-friends. Only the people here on smuterotica, one domme I visited a decade back, and of course the models on the camsites I frequent, know this aspect of me. I'm now fifty-seven and it looks like this addiction ain't going away. I just have to make sure, like all addicts, that I keep it under control. +It's taken many forms over the years, some of them benign: They are all related: +I have an ongoing stockings and high-heels leg-fetish, which of course I share with a lot of ""normal"" guys. +I also have bondage fantasies, where I dream of being kept in kennels, cellars and other cramped and lowly places by an uncaring woman. My owner can be any age, build or ethnicity, it doesn't matter, as long as she's a fucking weirdo psycho, and sassy, and never sets me free. +Hypnosis is another big fetish of mine. Hypnodommes are often findommes too. It's all related. +And of course there's my latest, most dangerous fetish: Findom itself. +Conspicuous by their absence are fetishes to do with pain or humiliation: I don't want my cock and balls tortured, thanks. Or my back flayed or my ass fucked by a dildo. Nor do I want women to laugh at my tiny cock - mainly because it's not tiny. It's pretty big, and looks pretty damn nifty when I have a boner. Camgirls have tried 'small penis humiliation' on me, but they're more likely to gasp 'OMG' than laugh at my inadequacy when they see my dick. +If you read above at the kind of femdom I go for, and the kind of femdom that doesn't do much for me, you'll see that the ones that get me hard are all related to relinquishing power, and the ones that do little for me are all to do with torture, suffering and guilt. +No, I don't want to be punished. I want to be - weak and powerless. I want to give up all my will, all my power, yes, and all my money too, to a sexy woman. Oh yes, she has to be sexy. I may be sick, but I'm just as shallow as the next man. +I have an innate desire to serve. To be a 'good husband'. To be a loyal pet. To be a lowly subject to a lofty queen. Sorry, forgot to capitalize the 'q'. To a _Queen_ , dammit. +So, using me as an example, you can build a typical slave profile: +Your slave is seeking to put You on a pedestal, and is willing to pay big bucks to keep You teetering up there in Your dangerously high Louboutin's. +He is ideally single but divorced, and wants to relive his erstwhile role as a husband and financial provider, which gave his life meaning and endowed him with self-esteem. +He is born in the Year of The Dog, and keeps cats, who, as any cat-lover knows, are findoms _par excellence_ , cool, selfish and greedy, often working in cahoots with vets to strip you of your wealth. +In real life he may be powerful and financially successful, but he yearns to give his wealth away, hopefully to some ungrateful Ukrainian hooker who makes him feel weak and puts him in his place, which should ideally be no more than 6 inches above the cold, stone floor, from where he look up to get a great view of Her long stockinged legs towering above him. +His natural money-sense prevents him from turning his fantasy into reality; but keeping his lifelong secret is a heavy burden to him, so he dreams of being blackmailed and thereby having his deceitful life exposed to the world, but without being responsible - he wants to be outed, against his will. Because above all, a slave wants You to be responsible for him. Yes, after all, findom slaves are almost always men, and almost all men are cowards and wish they could just shirk their responsibilities and let Mommy take over their life, like the Old Days. + **How do I hook a slave?** +Now that you understand their psychology, hooking a slave is simple! Just remember what they're looking for: Absolute Perfection. +Most of the hooking will actually be done by the slaves themselves, by allowing themselves to submit to their distorted vision of You as a Goddess rather than a woman, so it's all about suggestiveness rather than being too blatant. They desperately want to believe You're some kind of Supreme Being, they haven't seen You gnawing Your fingernails at the bus stop when You're late for Your dentist's appointment. +Here are some basic dos and don'ts: +Do: Put Your cam on the floor, point it upwards slightly, so that You can dangle Your stilletos in their face while they stare at Your sheer tights. +Do: Adopt a Mona Lisa smile. This is similar to the smile You get when You've just had an orgasm, or if You don't get orgasms, when you've bought the last 80% marked-down Gucci dress in the sale, just before that bitch with the botox managed to nab it. +Do: Sit still, or if You're getting cramp, rise in slo-mo and then glide languidly around the room like a recently fed cat. +Do: Mention money the whole time, how greedy You are, how addicted they will become, how silly they look staring at Your beauty, even if You can't see them. Exude confidence. A lot of findom addicts are also addicts of other vices, so drop hints about heroin, gambling, booze, and Pokemon card collecting until he responds to one of these triggers. +Do: Slide a credit card seductively up and down Your tights. If You don't have a credit card, a library card will do, but don't let him get too close a view of it, as it could possibly make You look a bit pathetic. +Do: Use a mic, but always talk gently, and calmly. Remember, slaves don't want screeching, they want Hypnosis and sensual seduction. Remain serene and dignified. To that end: +Don't: Fart. That's a different fetish altogether, and will just confuse the poor sap. +Don't: Use dildos or whips, cockrings or other instruments of torture. Although that might work for some slaves, it makes you seem less like a specialist. Remember findom is a niche market for slaves who are all about the Mind. If you try to cater for too many different subtypes of slave you'll end up looking amateurish. If you do use toys, stick to those that simply reinforce his powerlessness. Cuffs and masks (for him) are fine. +Don't: Tell them about Your Real Life. Not one thing. You're a Goddess to them, and the last thing they'll want to do is to picture You at Christmas dinner with Your aunt, or going on holiday to Turkey with Your sister. +Don't: Thank them when they tribute You. Ever. That's a cardinal error, and has lost a lot of rookies a lot of potential meal-tickets. It works like this: The more a slave spends, the lower their self-esteem, and they need to pay more and more to You, in a desperate attempt to raise it, to impress You, to get You to say 'Thank You'. But You must always make them feel as though they haven't paid enough, even if You're thinking ""fucking hell, I can't wait to spend this on an iPhone 6+ for my kid!"" + **Ok, I have some slaves, how do I monetize them effectively?** +Retention is a problem for many findoms. No matter how much You tell them they're hooked for life and will have to sign their house over to You, in reality they'll disappear if You let it get too extreme. You should let them top up their money regularly and don't bleed them too fast. +Keep telling them it's Your birthday, at least four times a year. If they're really slaves, they won't dare contradict You. +Use a camgirl site that allows you to raise the rate per minute astronomically high. The mere fact that they're paying $20 a minute for the session gets the slave so hard you don't even need to appear on cam at all. +Finally, the best for last: Use TeamViewer! This remote control software is great for slaves with a blackmail fantasy. It can, in effect, be used for consensual identity theft. You also can get creative with it: Besides getting them to drop money into Your Paypal or Amazon account, You can team up with another findom and make the slave pay for a session with her simultaneously with yours. +Hell, let's face it, with TeamViewer the sky's the limit! +Well, that's about it for now, happy findomming ladies! +***** + _I wrote this to try and cure myself of a very dangerous addiction to a particular online financial domme who has parted this fool with his money for too long.

I’m here to talk to the boys (and yeah, open-minded gals) in the class who want to learn how to keep a woman in a state of repeated orgasm for five to six hours. I mean multiple orgasm, one after another, for HOURS. It’s a technique I’ve developed -- technique, hell, insane and inhuman skill -- which I’ve had the privilege of using successfully on five different women. And believe me, when I finished, they were different. +No, I’m not talking that tantric shit where you sustain one mega-orgasm that bursts your uterus like a piñata. Nor do I mean that multiple orgasm you read about on the feminine hygiene websites where she keeps pumping the dildo until she’s puffy and sore. What I mean is an experience I can’t find any information about anywhere, and if I hadn’t invented it, I wouldn’t know it exists. Unless you’ve pulled it off yourself, you’ll think I’m a liar. In the meantime, give it a try. +Before I delve into the ""how-to,"" a little background: The first time I witnessed this miracle was in the backseat of my crappy car in college. I was dating a Chinese girl at the time, and we often fucked like crazed ice weasels on death row. Her body was the perfect instrument for the method we were about to uncover together -- hairless, tiny breasts with ultra-sensitive nipples, and she masturbated as though it earned her money. On the night in question, we made out, fucked, then started fondling. The rest, as they say, is undocumented. As I make the grocery list of factors you’ll need, I’ll be referring to my Chinese love kitten often. (She was very American, but with that tight Asian package. I’m missing her, for the moment.) +Part I: Bring the elements together +Can you start touching and rubbing a woman and make her cum? Sure, at the next Super Bowl party for all I care, go nuts. But will you be able to craft the super orgasm? No, it’s important that you prepare yourself and your date for the experience to follow. You don’t have to be in love, but if you are, that’s good too. The weather can be hot or cold, it doesn’t matter, because you’ll create your own heat (that’s literal, not poetic). What IS essential are the following components: +A. FIND A GIRL WHO MASTURBATES. If you want to pull this off the first time, you should start with a girl who isn’t afraid of a big orgasm, and that means a chick who rubs herself. It helps if she knows how to induce her own multiple orgasm, but it’s not mandatory. A girl who frequently orgasms is just a few steps away from achieving multiples, whether she knows it or not, so maybe you’re just the guy to do it. LADIES, if you want someone to do this to you, be a sport and do your homework. Learn to masturbate to orgasm, become addicted to it, then let him know you’re ready to go. +B. PICK THE RIGHT SPOT. (Location, not G-spot, hardy har.) Like I said, the temperature doesn’t matter, but you have to be somewhere that you can build up some steam. A small bedroom will do, but the backseat of a car is best. Avoid saunas -- you’ll have to leave due to dehydration before you’re ready to quit, which would suck. The trick is to get her sweaty without causing her to overheat. Let her pussy get sloppy, keep her licking her lips. A little drool is to be expected, so be a grown-up and let her make a mess. Why the fuck do you think you’re doing this in private? The wetter, the better. Witty! +C. KEEP THE LIGHTS OFF. I know I know, you both want to look deeply into each other’s eyes, and you think it will be sexy to watch each other. Take it to Aruba or some damn place, because it won’t work here. Girls are what they are, and if she starts to get self-conscious about being watched, she’ll pull the emergency brake. Logically, she knows they’re your hands, so it shouldn’t matter, but logic isn’t a factor tonight. Just trust me the first time; you can experiment later, you freak you (wink). ALSO: No music, no TV, no fans, no toys or lubricants, no exceptions. +D. KEEP DRINKING LIQUIDS HANDY. Nothing spoils the party like a girl with blurry vision. China Girl wanted to keep going past the third hour, but her throat hurt from dryness, so she made me drive the car to a gas station and get her a big cup of ice water. Fortunately, I was able to keep her naked in the back seat (the windows were steamed to opaqueness, thank goodness), and I reached back while I drove and continued to finger her. She came three times before I got back to the parking spot. You may not be so lucky. +E. KEEP IT SECRET. If you’re planning on doing this to your sweetie, and she doesn’t know yet, that’s the best way to start. I’m a big fan of telling each other what you want (to the left, harder, oh baby), but this particular event requires a subtle touch and a good deal of patience. If you can gently get her in the mood, without a lot of the blah-blah-blah we boys are famous for, you’ll be in a better position to maneuver emotionally. Does that make sense? What I mean is, when the woman knows she’s expected to have multiple orgasms, she’ll try too hard, and you won’t be able to charm and woo her back onto the orgasm path. With the expectations missing, there’s nothing to do but let go and plow ahead. +F. TAKE THAT GROUP SHIT SOMEWHERE ELSE. I have two things to say to those kids who have sex on the floor at a crowded college party. First, your parents secretly wish you’d been kidnapped at birth. Second, you won’t be able to do what I’m describing here with twenty beer-swilling fraternity brothers looking on. Get in the back seat on a moonless night, and don’t tell anyone where you’re going. This is about two people devoted to ONE woman’s pleasure, not mutual gratification, and sure as hell not a successful gangbang. For conservative married men reading this, well, you’re the star pupils. +Part II: Fuck her brains out +Before you guide your woman into an ocean of bliss, you must put yourself in the right frame of mind. In other words, you won’t be able to concentrate on her orgasms when you haven’t had one of your own. So go ahead and bend her over, pop that cock in her hole and start fucking. Cum hard once, twice if you really don’t think you’ll be able to stand it (and by the way, good for you with the double-cumming, dude). +The added benefit of this step is that you loosen up those cunt lips, moisten the vagina, harden the clitoris, basically get her in the mood for more. IMPORTANT: Touch her body during the sex. Sounds obvious, doesn’t it? Watch any porno flick to see how easy it is to forget to touch one another. Hold onto her hips, fondle her boobs, suck on each other fingers. If you don’t, you’ll have to overcome that insecurity later in the evening. Get her used to the feeling of your hands and mouth on her body. THIS IS KEY. +Part III: Develop the scene +So you fucked, and she’s happy. Did she cum? Doesn’t matter, and I mean that seriously. The dick-in-vagina session was just to get the guy off, so make that your goal in that phase. She’s about to get hers. However, even though you don’t need her to orgasm during the intercourse, you do need her to feel emotionally safe and physically comfortable. How do you do that? Sorry punk, if you’ve read all this looking for the way to charm a woman, I can’t help you. There has to be at least some part of you that believes in romance and treating a woman right, or at least the ability to seduce a woman so you can get into her pants. You ripped-abdominals gym monkeys who hook women with your pecs and roman noses will find nothing in my instructions you can use. Go back to the college party gangbang and leave my technique to the professionals. Although, you can at least give it a shot with these next few tips... +A. CUDDLE, CUDDLE, CUDDLE. Remember what I said about constantly touching? Sure you do, punk. Keep your damn mouth shut and just hold her for a while. Run your fingertips up and down her belly, lick her neck, kiss her earlobes, massage her leg muscles. DON’T tickle her, or at least cut it out after you find a spot. For fuck sake, just roll around with each other for a bit. Play with her hair, on both ends. If she’s sweating, wallow in the sweat. Pinch her nipples a little, fondle her tits. You know, cuddle! +B. SLOWLY CREATE A MICROCOSM OF LUST. Look for the right moment for cuddling to develop into genital manipulation. Go down on her, finger her, or combine the two. Basically, take your time getting her to cum using your hands. Don’t stop cuddling! If you’re fingering her vagina, then don’t stop kissing her neck (read the women’s websites to find out where the goddamn G-spot is). If you’re rubbing her clitoris (same website), then keep pressing your tongue to her breastbone and under the bottoms of her breasts. If you’re eating her out, run your hands up and down her sweaty hips and torso, or entwine your fingers in hers. WHAT YOU’RE LOOKING FOR is a series of two or three orgasms accompanied by nothing but darkness, moaning (however that sounds for your date), and body language encouraging you to continue whatever the hell you’re doing to her. +Part IV: Craft the super orgasm +Time to put the pieces in place. TIMING IS ESSENTIAL. You’ve brought her to orgasm at least two or three times through genital manipulation. Now, start to cuddle again. You’ll find that this second round of cuddling is more purposeful than the first. Your date is more aware of her body and of yours, her body temperature has increased along with the atmosphere around you, her skin is sweaty, and her muscles are taut either from remembrance of the previous orgasm or anticipation of the next. +What you have is a girl who wants to cum again but needs a break. You’re about to trick her into believing she’s getting a break, but actually, you’re setting her up for the next round. Here’s the timing: 1) Finish licking or rubbing her pussy, and make her cum. 2) Lie beside her and fondle her tenderly. 3) When she responds to any touch -- e.g. kissing her neck, licking inside her ear, pinching her nipples (these three are great starting points) -- keep that touch going. 4) Continue that touch until she cums. 5) Gently decrease your pressure while she cums, then pick right back up again before she’s completely done. NOW she’s in a state of multiple orgasm. It takes a subtle hand, requiring you to ""sense"" when to back off and when to go faster or rougher. Just keep building the orgasms wave on wave. DO NOT FUCK HER WITH YOUR DICK. This immediately puts her back in the ""must please partner"" frame of mind. Lesbians, put a hold on that sixty-nine for another night. +You don’t believe it can be done? What can I say. In this state, the woman will cum when you BREATHE LIGHTLY on her neck. Her body is one big nerve just waiting to be struck, and you can have some real fun striking it. You’ll be amazed at the ways in which she responds, like a piano with a hundred keys (or however many fucking keys a piano has). Here’s a short list of touches you can use to cause an orgasm while she’s in this state: 1) Lick her labia (genitals are off limits for the first two orgasms of this phase, then revisit at your discretion). 2) Finger her (never fist). 3) Gently nibble or pinch her clit. 4) Suck her clit. 5) Lick her clit. 6) Lick her inner thigh. 7) Blow on her tummy. 8) Pinch or nibble her nipples. 9) Blow on her neck. 10) Lick her neck (avoid hickey-style sucking, UNLESS she responds -- remember, pain will cause a lingering sensation that is counter to the mood you are creating). 11) Finger that asshole, or lick it clean. 12) Try a number of different moves on her ears, including sucking the lobes and inserting your tongue. 13) Suck her toes -- works like a charm! +A. PAY SOME GODDAMN ATTENTION. If you follow my simple step-by-step instructions, you will fall on your face, and not in a fun S-M kind of way. Use the darkness and wetness to your advantage, to create an ongoing bond of communication between your hands and her body. Every electric current needs a complete circuit, and once you break the circuit, you have to start all over. BE PATIENT, watch the signs, attack areas of the body when encouraged by signs. +B. IF YOU HAVE TABOOS, GO TRY A DIFFERENT ""HOW TO."" This is about the girl’s pleasure, so you may have to experiment. (Toe-sucking and ass-licking are almost essential.) If you think you’ll earn her respect by being coy and sincere, or if you don’t want to violate her, then you should just fuck each other and go to sleep. The super orgasm requires a degree of adventure and imagination. +C. IGNORE ALL HER COMPLAINTS EXCEPT ONE. When she says, ""I’m gonna pass out,"" she means it! Take a break, give her some water, move your hands away, and don’t speak. If this is her first time to multiple, you may just have surprised the shit out of her. Fortunately, you should be able to resume once she’s had her second wind. Other than that, don’t stop for anything. She may not know she can multiple, and when she experiences the first one, she’ll want to stop. Seduce her, damn it! Touch, caress, fondle, stroke, keep her in a state of hungry passion from which she’d be insane to escape. Eventually she’ll lose the ability to reason, and you may continue triggering her orgasms at will. +D. DON’T BE A SELFISH ASSHOLE. What did I say about intercourse? Gimme that (throws it in a drawer, slams it shut). Tomorrow, she’ll give you the blowjob of your life, but tonight she wants to keep feeling whatever you made her feel. +Conclusion +Well sure, you have my word that the super orgasm technique described here is amazing and will change a woman forever, but what proof do I have? Try this on, wonderstud: Before I used this technique, every girl I dated dumped me (apparently, I’m too honest and aggressive). Of the five I subjected to the full-body workup, one-hundred-percent told me they loved me without any provocation, nor reciprocation from me. LOVED, dude. They confused the six- hour orgasm session with TRUE LOVE. Holy shit. If you think you have what it takes, whoo hoo for you. +BE WARNED: The super orgasm is not for impatient busters who are bored with the missionary position and will try anything. You need to be patient and determined, and it wouldn’t hurt if you (the dude or lesbian about to perform the technique) have that certain fetish that compels you to make a woman cum over and over. +ADDITIONAL WARNING: There’s a certain kind of girl out there who shares your fetish, and she’ll feel guilty about not pleasuring you more, at which point she’ll try to suck you off or offer her wet hole. Gently explain that you appreciate the gesture, but tonight is her turn to feel like a princess (concubine? Don’t say concubine) so she should roll over and let you keep licking her shoulder blades and asshole and that spot between her big toe and her second toe. She’ll smile, say thank you, and flip over. +I’d love to know if this was successful for anyone, and if it wasn’t, you did it wrong, but tell me that too. And China Girl, if you’re reading this, know that you are my number one fantasy, you sexy masturbating fiend.

Our children have become addicted it seems to highly-stimulating media, such as television, computers and video games. While these electronic options offer an easy and according to some studies educational alternative, they do not allow parents to fully engage with their children. As the mother of six, ranging in age from three to twenty-three, I have seen my fair share of long summer days. Below are a few options of free, fun and environmentally-friendly activities that you can utilize along with these new electronic media to keep your children entertained this summer...and perhaps help them and you to learn something new as well. +1) Good old-fashioned reading. Whether you are reading to your young child, listening to your child read to you or reading and discussing the same book with your teen; this is a past time worth encouraging. You may encounter some resistance at first; 'Mom, who wants to read on summer break?', but selecting an interesting book can solve that problem. J K Rowling did parents the world over a huge favor when she put pen to paper and created a mythical school for young wizards...and re-ignited a passion for reading in another generation. But there are thousands of other young people's authors, who are equally talented; perhaps you and your child will discover one this summer. Of course, libraries and book exchanges means this activity need not cost you anything. +2) Parks/Beach/Mountains or whatever is close to you. When was the last time you packed a picnic lunch and took a surprise visit to your local sites? I have been privileged to live in some rather famous cities, but I have found that no matter how exotic your home, you often take for granted tourist attractions that attract people from around the world. Of course, when you pack that lunch don't forget to take along fun games such as baseballs, badminton, and horseshoes to play after lunch. Also don't assume that the area will have adequate waste disposal; so always take a bag for your refuse to make your fun, free adventure environmentally friendly. This is especially important at the beach, where your garbage can present life-threatening obstacles to marine wild life. +3) A Treasure Hunt...better known as cleaning-up your neighborhood. This one works better with younger children as teens will find it somewhat embarrassing, but even then the lessons of personal responsibility and community spirit may outweigh those concerns. It is simple to do really; just grab a few trash bags and head out to the local streets to pick up rubbish. Of course, you can always separate cans, paper and plastic and sell them at the local recycling center. Then you can use that money to do something else fun or even donate it to your favorite environmental charity. And who knows what else you might find...perhaps even a real treasure? +4) Museums. I know the word alone brings forth visions of staunch and severe halls filled with untouchables, but many museums now cater to younger audiences. One of our favorite places in Los Angeles was the California Science Center. It was an adventure wonderland for children of all ages and only asked for donations. Living in London, we are delighted that all major museums are free of charge. But even in the US, most museums offer one day per month, where they are open free of charge. You can find out when by checking out their website. +5) Talking...and listening. It may seem simple, but when was the last time you took the time to actually talk with your child...not at them. I have always found my children to be fascinating people, even and especially when we disagree. Even my three year old can be prompted to share fascinating stories and recently jokes. Equally important and often forgotten part of conversation is the skill of listening. Listening implies more than simply hearing what is being said, but also opening yourself up to receive unvocalized clues to hidden meanings. It is a skill that we are losing, but one that has high value as our children grow into adulthood. I encourage you to take the time to practice it this summer. Some of my favorite memories from my teens is sitting on the front porch with my step-father and just talking. I have long since forgotten what we talked about, but the warm feelings from that time are vivid a quarter of a century later. I think you will find that your children have strong opinions on many subjects, if you take the time to ask them. +As an adult and a parent, I too often hear others complaining about our children. They are accused of being lazy, stupid and disrespectful...among other things. But I have always found the exact opposite. This generation is intelligent, industrious and for the most part empathetic, but all of these characteristics must be encouraged or we will lose them. So I challenge you this summer to draw yourself away from your laptop and your children away from their video games. Whether you use one of these five free, fun and environmentally-friendly suggestions or one of your own; engage with your child." +210,The Five Hour Hard-On,Badlands1,How To,2020-10-02,2020-10-02,2022-01-04 08:40:03,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-five-hour-hard-on-1,"How to fuck for hours...whether you want to, or not.","['How-To', 'Hugh Mungus', 'Humor', 'Las Vegas', 'Mike Oxhard', 'Swinger', 'Swinging', 'Vegas']",1.78,"When planning on being a Numbers Guy, a crucial trick of the trade is learning how to hump all night. Should you find yourself in a room filled with new women ― eager to fuck ― knowing how to pound mound until dawn results in multitudinous Digits. +In contrast, banging the traditional way ― shooting one's load, each time you mattress dance ― will cause you to miss out on numerous Numbers. Why fuck one woman, when you can fuck 12?! +Believe it or not, one of the keys to accomplishing this has to do with how you dress. Sounds strange, but an article of clothing actually enables guys to fuck better. +Work boots allow a Numbers Guy to gain traction on nearly any surface ― be it the wooden floor of a Motel Sex, slick with lube, or the nubby carpet of Strip casinos. Industrial-strength waffle stompers ― with soles more gripping than a Twilight Zone episode ― allow you to be the last man standing at a 15 guy gangbang, ready for the next Number to present itself. +In conjunction with the aforementioned attire, employ what's known as the Butterfly Position. This posture involves sliding a woman to the edge of the bed, and fucking her while on her back, as you're standing between her legs. +The Butterfly Position utilizes little physical exertion. You'll be a sexual superhero ― humping in this offshoot of Missionary ― since you're only using your hips, and will thus tire far less easily than when employing your entire body. +As this posture requires the penetrator to stand, add to your ease by placing substantial furniture behind you. In doing so, you give yourself a foothold with which to wedge your boot, and further keep from sliding, enabling you to thrust with more power. +Lube helps one retain an erection for hours ― an imperative when looking to fuck all night. Stroking yourself for protracted periods — minus groin grease — can cause your cock to become sore. Once you break the tender skin on your dick, it takes a week or more before you can vigorously jack-off again. +Lube alleviates that problem, keeping your hands from directly contacting your shaft. Liberally employing lubricant will stop you from rubbing yourself raw, and provide you the opportunity to fuck for longer intervals. +Flavored lube. The Wicked line carries an array that doesn't become mucilaginous as quickly as other brands. Caramel Apple, Cinnamon Bun, Salted Caramel, Vanilla, etc. are some of the arrows Mike Oxhard constantly keeps in his quiver. +A pittance of pretties don't like flavored lube. Such stated, a preponderance of pulchritudinous playmates appreciate the consideration displayed, when making such a purchase ""for her pleasure."" +Vanilla seems to be the most popular of the Wicked infused products. This flavor is neutral enough to appeal to most pallets, yet not so divergent folks find it beyond their scope. +Without knowledge of the above tricks of the trade, Oxhard wouldn't have been able to withstand the following onslaught: +A spume of hooker playing cards littered the soiled sidewalk of Las Vegas Boulevard. +Mike scurried toward the Wynn, where bronze windows tore the sky. +Deep-frying, cotton candy, and knock-off cologne suffocated the ambient scent of the desert. +Oxhard moved as quickly down the street as the crowds would allow. This was tourist season, and the teeming throngs were slathered liberally from Mandalay Bay to the Stratosphere. +Half the text message was misspelled. The included pics were either real, or purloined from a high end porn site. If the former was the case, this was gonna be a tasty treat, hand-crafted on a scratch skillet. +""ill be down in tree monutes,"" the electronic correspondence read. ""she doesnt speak english and i cant get it up. we been awake 4 days doing blow. u need 2 fuk her 4 as long as i say. it takes her at lest 2 hours to cum"" +Breeching the sterile lobby of the Wynn, Mike texted the couple on a cell that smelled of other people's beer, and recycled crab legs. Food and beverage used Oxhard, and belched him out, as he exchanged his life for cash — the vital scraps of paper this sick industry provided. He kept a roof over his head, as a runner in a restaurant on the Strip. +The golden-gilded elevator vomited forth a waste of human flesh drowning in dollars ― its soul replaced by avarice. Whatever this was hadn't been human for a while, and probably never put up a fight to remain so. +Such was the worst type of stumbling stiff ― the insanely monetarily affluent. Mike had nothing in common with them. The fact this disheveled douche wanted his girlfriend fucked by somebody with a huge hard-on, was the only reason Oxhard was here. +A Ramones shirt ― to make him ""cool"" ― and a wad of waved hundreds, to buy a pack of gum in the gift shop. Of course, a scene ― rivaling a battle from Star Wars ― was made, to display how much money this guy had, when the cashier couldn't produce change for a Franklin. +Mike had never heard a Ramones song, and only held hundred dollar bills when customers used them to pay bar tabs. Led to the room, Oxhard greased his oversized boner in the hotel hallway, beneath his threadbare slacks. All the while, he wondered if his Sherpa guide had ever possessed a soul. +Whatever the case, he'd be embedded in a waxed wagina in less time than it took Oprah to rape the masses. +This afternoon's entree ― Moroccan of origin ― was as plastic as an action figure, from fake tits and ass, to a bleached anus, and ice-white contact lenses. Mike could've been fucking a blow-up doll, except for the fact this portal of penetration felt warm, and he could hear what remained of its heart faintly beating within its chest. +""Choke her out, bro,"" the coked boyfriend decreed. +""Huh?"" +""Choke her out! Choke her out!!"" the incensed beau clamped down on his woman's throat with maniacal force. +Oxhard turned away, so as not to look. +Gums bleeding, the woman spit hemoglobin. +Smeared adrenaline made the room reek like the insides of a slaughterhouse, metallic to taste. +Mike had done enough coke in the past to know about the drip, and he surmised these two had waterfalls draining down the backs of their throats. +""Cum on that fuckin' horse cock,"" the crazed companion demanded. ""Cum on that fuckin' nine inch dick!"" the significant other levied the dissolute decree. +A demented demon dug dried bones ― doubling as digits ― into the wash-and-wear woman's windpipe. It was a scene from Psycho, and Mike kept wondering how long it was gonna take the head gasket to blow. +""Just a few more minutes, man. Just a few more minutes!"" the bellicose boyfriend kept promising Oxhard, as he lay languid beneath his girlfriend's convulsing corporeal chassis. +But ""a few more minutes"" became a tavern sign promising: ""Free Burgers Tomorrow!"" +A recalcitrant Rottweiler, the chick never came. +Seconds turned into minutes; and minutes, hours, as the belligerent boyfriend's boner ― bread minus the yeast ― refused to rise. +All the while, Oxhard ― lucid and sober ― was enlisted to perpetually penetrate. +It's one thing to fuck for five hours; it's an entirely different beast, when called upon to pierce womb for 300 minutes, sans respite. We're talkin' no time to lavish in a full-course meal at the Y, allowing one's steel pipe a minute of reprieve. +Mike now knew firsthand such was possible, but physically hurt more than a pickaxe lobotomy. +Oxhard 's cock had been doused with acid. Carving granite, he continued boring subterranean tunnels. Two hours, three, four, five! +Either this chick was gonna blow like a tax on oxygen, or Mike was gonna dump his load like the Exxon Valdez! Somethin' had to happen, as our hero's hose hurt more than the death dictum: President Jeff Bezos! +T-minus ten, nine, eight― +Oxhard uncorked the cracked Cook's bottle — doubling as his dong — and released the fuckin' Kraken! At that moment, more cream was dispensed than the dairy industry delivers in a year! +Subsequent fireproofing this woman's chest, stomach and thighs, Mike scrambled for the bathroom, where he doused his dong in ice water for what seemed days. +The above scenario wouldn't have been possible, if Oxhard hadn't been wearing work boots, and humping in the Butterfly Position. +— authored by Hugh Mungus; a.k.a.

Handle and knob designs are mostly a matter of personal taste as well as the maker's signature (especially in the knobs). But the falls make a very real difference in the sensation delivered by the flogger. +When applied to your subject most Floggers most fall somewhere between being thuddy or stingy. A thuddy flogger delivers a deep, pounding sensation. Used moderately, it can feel something like a massage. Stingy floggers deliver a much sharper sensation. Some people say they feel two sensations, one when the flogger hits, and another a second or two later. Which flogger you will want to use will depend on the effect you're after, as well as personal preferences. Practically every aspect of the falls contributes to how stingy or thuddy a flogger will feel. +Width: The wider the falls, the thuddier the sensation; thinner tails mean more sting. +Number: Fewer falls equals more sting; more tails equals more thud. The typical flogger has about 15 to 25 falls. +Points: Rounded and square-cut tips are the most gentle; pointed tips are stingy and forked points, doubly so. +Length & Weight: The longer the falls, the heavier they are and the faster the tips will be traveling when they hit their target. Heavier generally translates to thuddier, while faster can mean stingy. The exact effect will depend on the other factors controlling sting versus thud. About 16 to 24 inches is an average length for flogger falls. +Materials Besides the weight, width, length, and point cut, the fall's material matters most. There are a wide variety of leather and other materials available, and each provides a different sensation. +Chamois: The same thing you use to dry your car, chamois is buttery soft and very light. It's rare to find a flogger made out of this stuff, and with good reason: chamois will provide almost no sensation at all! You'll get some noise, a very light skin-level sensation, and not much else. +Plonge: A thin, lightweight, buttery soft cow hide, plonge has a shiny finish and a lush suede side. It is extremely gentle, although it can produce significant sting if used with force. Very few whip makers work in plonge. +Deerskin: A light and velvety hide, deerskin is great for caressing the body, and makes an excellent ""warm-up"" whip. Lots of noise, but very little impact. +Light Cowhide: Slightly stiffer and heavier than deerskin, light cowhide is used by some whip makers as an ""in between"" material. It generally has a light thuddy feel. +Elk: Heavier than deerskin, Elk is still fairly soft and compressible. It delivers almost pure thud, but gently so: you can put a lot of force behind a blow without risk of hurting someone. +Full Suede: A bit harder and stiffer than Elk. Mostly thuddy, but can sting a bit if the tips are flicked quickly. Many floggers are some sort of suede, and this is a very versatile and useful material for most players. +Top-Grain Cowhide: These leathers are smooth on one side, creating less friction with the air and more sting on impact. Whip makers seem to generally steer clear of these, perhaps because of the ""mismatched"" look of the tails. +Oil Tanned Leather: A soft, oily leather that tends to stretch...Mostly sting with a little thud. Moose: A dense and supple leather with a nice surface texture. Mostly thuddy, with some sting. +Buffalo or Bison: A thick, dense, yet soft leather with a very distinctive and defined grain. Very thuddy, but can sting if used correctly. +Bull hide: Heavier and less stretchy than buffalo, bull hide produces a lot of thud and some sting. +Latigo: A very dense and tough cowhide, heavily tanned. Latigo produces intense sting with very little effort. +Leather isn't the only material available for whip making. Some very interesting floggers have been made from non-traditional materials. +Rope: Unwind or unweave a rope, add a handle, and you have an interesting and versatile flogger. Widely frayed ends result in a very gentle toy; knotted ends can be more severe. +Horsehair: Horsehair floggers deliver the sensation of being scratched. This is one of the few floggers that grow less powerful as you make the fall thicker; more hair slows down the swing and reduces the impact. +Rubber: Most people will caution you that rubber whips are very severe. But it depends on the type and cut of rubber. The cardinal rule for rubber floggers is, ""When in doubt, try it out."" +Chain: Fine metal chain, or the ball chain used to turn on ceiling fans, is sometimes used to make floggers. Very intense, these should be used with great caution. Since they're made of metal and hold temperature well, they're more popular for dragging over the skin after being stored in a freezer than for actual floggings. +Posture/Stance The bottom can be positioned in various positions depending on the part of body to be flogged. Back or front to the top as they request, demand or negotiate. This ranges from standing, lying down, bent over, suspension hanging, kneeling, etc. Keep in mind that each posture can create a change in the way you can use a flogger on them. +There are many possible postures for the top, and you'll have to experiment to find one that's comfortable for you. Most important thing is that you strike as accurately as possible. The most common stance for flogging is a modified fencing stance or a martial arts ""ready"" stance. The legs are separated with the front of the body pointing to one side. The foot nearer to the bottom points toward the bottom, and the rear foot points to the side. The knees should be slightly bent, to facilitate easily crouching lower (to ease lower strikes) and side-to-side motion (to ease the use of different angles of impact). The ideal stance is a flexible one, as the top may want to move quickly from one position to another as the different strokes require. Good floggings often remind one of a dance. +Gripping the Flogger. Hold the flogger in your strong hand. Your grip should be firm but your wrist and arm must not be rigid, as a fluid motion assists in accuracy and control. Think of it as holding on to a small bird firm but not crushing. Experiment with the flogger to see where on the handle to grip. Holding the handle near the end will allow for more forceful blows, but may be more difficult to control for beginners. The flogger should feel well balanced, and it should swing with a minimum of effort. Good balance is one of the differences between a cheap flogger and a good flogger. +Fall of tails To determine the fall of your tails lightly swing your flogger in an underhand fashion straight out in front of you (palm down), and move forward or backwards until you see the tips just brush your target. This is the outside of your swing. You should extend your arm fully at this time to reach your target without leaning at all. Now...lean forward a bit until you can see the lashes fall a little flatter in the middle of your target. This is the inside of your swing. Any closer and you risk wrapping the tails around the side of your subjects’ body, which is very painful. +Brushing with the tip can cause a stingier/softer effect depending on the type of flogger used and the force behind the throw. When the lashes fall a little flatter it causes more contact and will produce more of a thuddy feeling. +Flogging Techniques/Tips Don't try and do all the work or fight against the flogger. Simplify the motion of the stroke as much as possible. Use the weight of momentum and the leverage of the arm/flogger combination as much as possible. In other words let the whip do the work. You can also lean forwards and backwards during the course of a stroke to put your weight into the stroke or to take some of it out. +If the falls of your flogger tend to splay out too much on impact you can slightly twist your hand halfway through the stroke to help bring the tails into line with each other. For a lighter stroke, you can slow the speed of the flogger as it reaches the top of its arc, and let the tails fall gently on the bottom. +Generally, the more directly the tips strike the bottom, the thuddier the sensation is. When the tips of the flogger’s falls brush against the bottom, and do so quickly, the sensation is often stingier. +The tips of the flogger, as they strike, convey the greatest force of the stroke. Thus, when one is flogging heavily, it is helpful to strike in such a way that the tips land first, this will also help avoid wrapping, which occurs when the middle of the tails strikes a good area, but the tips (which land later) wrap around to strike over the shoulder, around the torso, etc. This is generally considered Bad form. Also the tips speed up and wrapping can leave very interesting marks with a lighter flogger. +It's difficult to judge what strokes and floggers to use on a bottom at a particular time if you don't know the bottom very well or if you’re just starting out in flogging. The key is to ensure proper communication beforehand, and proper feedback verbal and non-verbal during the flogging (hence you might not want to use a gag when starting out or with someone new). But as with most things BDSM related. GO SLOW. +Flogging Strokes One basic stroke is the Overhand Stroke. It consists of striking overhand, with the palm toward the bottom. Throw the flogger back over the shoulder of the arm your holding the flogger in (be sure to grip the handle, don't want a flogger flying off behind you somewhere). Holding your elbow higher at this point can help increase the arc and speed of the flogger but isn't necessary. Now throw the flogger forward in an arcing motion by straightening your arm at the elbow and allowing the weight of the flogger to carry it down. This is a great motion to use to allow the tails to gently splay across the body. But if you increase the speed of your arm it can become a very powerful stroke. Another basic stroke is the forehand stroke. It's much like using a golf club. It consists of a side armed stoke with the palm toward the bottom. Starting with holding your arm out to the side and bring your arm across the front of your body. This naturally leads in to the next basic stroke. +The backhand stroke. This can consist of an overhand backhand stroke or a straight backhand stroke. The overhand backhand stroke consists of striking overhand with the palm towards you. With the flogger over the shoulder of the opposite arm your holding the flogger in. Throw the flogger forward in an arcing motion by straightening your arm at the elbow and allowing the weight of the flogger to carry it down. Keeping the elbow high will help increase the arc and speed of the flogger but personal preference should prevail. +The straight backhand stroke is very similar but instead of starting with the flogger over the opposite shoulder it merely starts out across the opposite side of the body your holding the flogger in. With the palm towards you straighten your elbow in the direction of your target and allow the tails to come around to the other side. +The underhand forehand and underhand backhand strokes are merely a variation of the forehand and backhand strokes. By starting with the flogger handle pointing down to begin with and bringing it up. These strokes take more skill and strength than those above and can require lots of practice to get them right. +The punching or flicking stroke, which may be overhand or backhand, but includes flipping the wrist to provide more of a sensation of the tails going straight into their target, rather than striking them obliquely. This is commonly perceived as thuddier than other strokes, and is valuable for providing a different sensation, as well as allowing strokes in body areas (especially lower ones) that might otherwise be difficult to strike. It is often easier to learn the punching stroke if you use your non-flogging hand as a guide for the flogger tails as they begin their motion. +The figure eight stroke is a combination of strokes on each pass. Forehand and backhand, overhand and overhand backhand, etc. You'll find it works your muscles more evenly and is a bit easier for longer flogging sessions...plus it has a certain fluidity and flair to it. +Start with a normal forehand stroke. As you come down towards your target, however, don't go straight down; instead, cross in front of yourself. Rather than bringing your flogger down along your right side, bring it down to your left (for the right handed person). Now swing up on the left and cross back; you'll find your palm naturally turns for a backhand shot. Swing down and back to the right, then repeat the eight. +This one will probably feel awkward at first. One key is not to travel back as far as you do for a forehand or backhand swing alone. Just let the flogger follow a gentle figure eight in front of you. With practice you'll find you can hit the same spot with the same intensity on both the forehand and backhand strokes. +As you're practicing the various strokes, keep an eye on the target and what's happening to it. Are you seeing marks that extend from the center around the edges, a clear sign of wrapped falls? Be careful to watch how your falls land and adjust accordingly. +While not exactly a stroke spinning or pin wheeling a flogger can provide a gentle breeze, a fast caressing touch, or a barrage of stings. The technique is simple: hold the flogger's handle firmly, and whirl the tails around in a tight circle using your wrist. At first you might find it easier to get the tails spinning, and then move them into contact with your target. +The line stroke is also a combination of strokes on each pass. Forehand to backhand (a side to side motion), and overhand to underhand (a up and down motion). In both, the stroke merely moves in a straight line from one stroke to the other. +The biggest concern here is just be careful and start out slowly." +212,Foot Sex 101,Brittni4u,How To,2015-11-21,2015-11-21,2022-01-04 08:28:41,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/foot-sex-101,A girl's point of view on how to incorporate feet with sex.,"['Bare Feet', 'Cum On Feet', 'Feet', 'Feet Kissing', 'Feet Licking', 'Feet Smelling', 'Foot', 'Footjob', 'Nylon Feet', 'Socks']",4.81,"_It may seem strange to hear a girl and a young one at that, post anything about foot sex. Now, I am not claiming to be an expert on the subject but thanks to an encounter I had with a teacher when I was in high school, I have developed a strong foot fetish or at least a strong appreciation for the foot fetish. I have also had input from guys and foot sex experiences which have helped raise my interest and excitement. My foot fetish isn't that I like guys' feet or even girls' feet, but I am aroused by guys or girls liking and wanting my feet. Technically, I guess you would call it a ""reverse foot fetish."" I think that control and maybe dominance is where my excitement lies. After taking thorough mental notes from that experience and from dating some foot loving guys, I am going to share with you what I think guys like and the types of sex involving the feet from a girl's point of view. If you are not aroused by feet, then this post is probably not for you. If you have anything to add or suggest, feel free to email me._ +***** +Why the feet? +I believe foot fetish guys enjoy the total submission of a nice cute or sexy pair of feet because, first, I believe the feet represent the ""lowest"" part of a female yet have a very distinctive feminine quality. That feminine quality separates our feet from guys' feet. We are the ones who have the smaller more dainty features, we are the only ones who wear toe nail polish, we are the only ones who wear nylons or heels, and so forth. When I say lowest, I am referring to the closest to the ground by proximity. Just by anatomical location alone, feet get the ""dirtiest"" quicker than any other part of the female anatomy. A girl could walk across the yard barefoot or wear a pair of heels in the heat for 5 minutes and her feet would already be dirty or sweaty. The fact that a guy could feel himself completely committed to that submission, is what I believe heightens his arousal to it. If females walked on their hands, we might be discussing why so many guys have a ""hand fetish."" +As I just stated, guys who are aroused by feet, are sexually excited by the submission they feel in themselves for being aroused in the first place. I also believe the proverbial ""worship at someone's feet"" or ""kneeling at someone's feet"" show that total submission as in the traditional ""master vs. slave"" relationship. Subconsciously, guys that have a foot fetish, want to be dominated by a girl's feet. They want to be close to them and will do anything they can to please them. This is why most foot guys love to ""worship"" a pair of cute feet. Using all their senses, whether its sight, smell, touch, taste, or even hearing heels clicking across a hard floor, they can't help but relate that to their sexual impulses. This is why, I believe that guys get really kinky when it comes to feet and some even go over the top. +We girls also need to remove the stigma that a guy who likes feet is weird or a pervert. Nothing could be further from the truth. If he loves feet, is that any different that if he loved your breasts, or vagina, or ass? Sure it's not a traditional ""sexual"" body part but that just means it's not traditional to us. We girls might not think like that, so therefore we might think it's strange. Is it any stranger than if we liked big cocks, or nice smiles, or big thighs, or tight asses, or muscular bodies? Absolutely not. If a guy likes your feet, then flaunt them. A guy's number one sexual sense is sight. He likes what he sees. We wear tight pants, low cut tops, wear makeup, show skin along with many other visual apparel, so let's show off our sexy feet as well and don't discriminate against a guy who might find them sexually appealing. +If our feet can intensify his sexual gratification and his orgasm, he will be a much happier mate and at what price to us? He will in turn intensify our sexual gratification. I have watched television in bed and had a boyfriend, fuck my feet and have a powerful orgasm and I really didn't have to do anything but let it happen. I even made him get his own lotion and a towel. Here is my point, he wants to do that stuff! He wants to be totally submissive to your feet! You could tell him to go clean the kitchen before he is allowed to fuck your feet and it will be done in a matter of minutes. I am not suggesting, if he is totally selfish and wants no connection with you or isn't interested in pleasing you sexually, then we should give into his fetish. I am saying, using your feet can be a win/win situation with pleasing your man and help satisfy that sexual craving along with us keeping some control. +You have to start by keeping those feet looking good +The first step in using your feet as part of your sex life is cleanliness. You need to keep your feet clean and bathed. Now, I know some guys like ""dirty"" feet but there are two types of dirty feet and the type that foot fetish guys enjoy are the ones that have some wear or dirt on the bottoms not the kind that are unclean. ""Unclean"" is if you haven't showered in two days and ""dirty"" is if you have some dark wear from your flip flops or they are sweaty from wearing your boots at work. Cleanliness also keeps your feet sanitary and that is important because if he is a licker or sucker, he will stay healthy and we can get more into that later. +The second step in preparing to use your feet as part of your sex life is grooming. You must have well-groomed and presentable feet. The toenails need to be prepared and they need to be sexy with toenail polish, French tips, or just naturally shown. Your toenails should be trimmed neatly and without fungus or discoloration. Your feet need to be smooth and without blemishes such as callouses or bumps. Girls, we need to make our feet just as desirable as our body and faces and to do this we need to put time in our feet with pedicures and products just as we would with anything else. A guy really appreciates and is aroused by the effort we make in keeping our feet in good shape. +The third step in using your feet as part of your sex life is flexibility. No, I'm not referring to the ability to stretch but I'm talking about adapting your feet to your guy's taste. For your lover to truly enjoy your feet, you need to simply, adapt your feet to ""what he likes."" I do know that guys with a foot fetish are very specific in their ""likes."" Those specifics can range from particular colors of nail polish, to certain shoes, heels, socks, nylons, etc. I will discuss more on the specific of each one later in this writing. +To summarize, girls, you should keep your feet clean, groomed, and flexible. Yes, we will always mimic the latest styles and fashions. That is what we do but we can always make time to please our man with our feet. It is a small gesture and will make him so happy and sexually satisfied. The nice aspect about feet is there is such a variety of things that can be done to spice up your ""foot sex life."" Hopefully, I can help you realize some of those. +A little bit of teasing goes a looooong way +When I use the word ""teasing"" I am not just referring to flaunting your feet without deliverance. I am referring to a girl's ability to start, continue, or enhance her lover's interest and arousal in using her feet as part of her sexual persona. The key to good teasing has three components. The first, is it needs to be sincere. There is nothing a guy hates worse than if he feels you are teasing but your heart and sincerity aren't in it and you are just doing it for his purposes. The second component needs to be the element of surprise. If he has to tell you when and what to say, then that destroys the spontaneity and excitement. The last component to good teasing is variety. Don't get caught doing the same thing over and over. Mix it up and sometimes just be flat out kinky and off the wall. He will absolutely go nuts. He needs to reciprocate those components back to us in our desires. +There are several ways to tease your man and like I mentioned before, use all his senses, but because his number one sense is vision, never stop showing him what he is missing and his reward. Not only does your ""foot man"" want to be teased, he also likes to hear you talk about your feet, shoes, socks, hose, or situations that involve any or all of them. Treat your feet like they are their own person with feelings just like a guy treats his cock. I have the ""Jeopardy"" teasing philosophy which means I like to phrase much of my teasing in a form of a question. I am going to discuss several examples, that I have personally used, of how you could tease your man with your feet. +1.You are sitting there wincing and rubbing your own feet when you ask, ""Honey, I'm not used to my heels yet (any shoe that you wore that day) and my feet are so sore and tense, do you think you can give me one of your slow foot massages that you are so good at?"" Then you point your foot at him. +2.You come home for the evening wearing your leather boots or heels and you have your guy, unzip them for you, take them off and you ask, ""Do my feet smell ok? That cool air feels so good, my feet were so cramped and sweaty."" You offer your feet up to his face where he doesn't have a choice but to inhale them. +3.You and your lover are eating and conversing at a table while facing each other. You slyly remove your shoe and slowly take your foot and first, play ""footsie"" with his foot, proceed up his leg, and eventually ending up on his crotch through his pants. You then proceed to give him a ""cock massage"" with your foot. I have had a guy actually cum in his pants from this. You can also do that while you are sitting together on the couch, bed, or floor together. +4.You want your man to go shopping with you and he is whining around and generally doesn't want to go. You bargain with him, ""If you go, you can pick out some leggings, or hose or shoes for me. I will let you try them on me."" When you get there, you look at those things together and let him give his opinions on what he likes and try on several pairs for him. +5.When you are putting on your socks or hose, lift your leg skyward, point your toe, and slide them on real slow while he watches. You won't have to say a word, his eyes and mouth will speak for you. Remember, a lot of toe pointing is a good thing to a guy who likes feet. +6.You say, ""Baby, my feet are cold. Would you suck on my toes and warm them up, pleeease?"" +7.You arrive home from getting your pedicure and continually ask your guy how it looks with lots of holding your feet in positions he can see them. Say things like, ""Honey, lookie at this. Are you sure they look good?"" +8.Your man is in bed sleeping and quietly walk in and lay next to him head to toe. You get his cock out and either start sucking or stroking it while you put your feet in his face to wake him up! He won't mind. +9.Just out of the blue, you point your foot at your guy and ask, ""Honey, would you jack off on my feet? That is so sexy"" or ""Honey, go get the lube and fuck my feet. That is so hot and I love watching you do it."" +10.Your man is fucking you in the missionary position and without asking, you mash your feet in his face and demand him, ""Kiss my feet while you shoot your load in me"" or ""Suck on my toes while you cum in me"" or ""Baby, will you pull out and cum all over my toes when you're ready?"" +11.While you're jacking him off, whip off one of your shoes and command, ""I want you to cum in or on my shoe."" +12.Allow him to get his phone out and conduct a little photo shoot of your feet, dressed and posed as he wishes. This is a great way to tease him. +These are just 12 out of hundreds of ways you can initiate or tease your foot loving guy and enhance his sexual arousal. If your man loves feet, then use that as your weapon. Be creative and kinky. He will also be more cognizant of your own needs as well. +Paying attention to the details +Earlier in this writing, I mentioned that foot fetish guys have very specific tastes in what they like about feet. The easiest way to find out is simply, ask. When he tells you, don't ridicule or act as if anything your guy likes is strange or weird. Of course we girls love to have the latest fad or fashion and we will wear that in public. However, you can make your guy feel special if you allow him to pick out your footwear for an evening once in a while. Of course you may have to limit the choices so it will match your outfit. Now, let's discuss the details to each type of foot fetish. +The most common foot fetish is bare feet. I have known many guys who love a girl's bare feet. Now there are many parts to a girl's foot. Some of the specifics to a guy's taste that I have witnessed, are the toes or the valley under the toes before you get to the pads. Other specific areas are the pads, arches, heels, ankles (I know they aren't really the feet but I knew a guy who was obsessed with girl's ankles while wearing ankle socks), top of the foot, the sole of the foot and many types of angles for each. Some examples are, a guy may like to see a girl's foot while it is up over her head while she lies on her stomach, or a girl's foot lying on the ground, upside down so he can see the soles, or a guy who likes to see the toes spread out or scrunched up. Many guys love to see the side angle of the foot with the heels upward as you would see in a pair of high heels. There are many more and that is why you should ask your man what he desires and for him to be very specific. +Toenail display also would technically fit into the bare feet category but because there are so many ways you can prepare them, I am giving them their separate section. It all starts with length of nails. Some guys love longer toenails whereas some love them to be very short. I prefer to keep mine short to average. Foot fetish guys who love toenail polish are usually particular about color. I have known those guys who love the dark colors that represent rebellion, Emo, or Goth such as black, navy blue, or hunter green. I have known guys who love the neon or ""carefree"" light colors such as lime green, yellow, sky blue or hot pink. Other colors include the traditional mature feminine cherry red, maroon, purple, or dark pink to the modern polishes like glitter, bling, or combo colors. You name the type or color, it is out there. A popular polish currently is picture painting or picture addition. Some of the salons can do just about anything and everything and the more different and feminine, the more foot guys love it! It truly is art and my salon girl is amazing. Some guys like no polish. They enjoy the natural look of a foot with plain toenails. That is why we girls need to keep them well-groomed because polish can hide lots of flaws. Finally, there are French tips or press-on nails. French tips have become popular and accentuate femininity because of the white tips and the glossy enamel. We will always prefer the top fashion and what promotes our personality or maybe even what matches our weekend outfit but it doesn't hurt to allow your man to choose how you wear your nails from time to time. +I call the next section ""blinging those feet out."" Bling is anything that spices up a look, usually with something that sparkles, glitters, or dresses it up. There are foot guys who love the jewelry like toe rings, chains, and anklets. They can be silver, gold, black or any type of personal preference as long as it blings out the foot. I have had a couple guys love my sterling silver S swirl toe ring. Tattoos are another form of expression and bling that can dress up an ankle or foot. There are some foot guys who go really crazy for tattoos whether they are in color or black and white. +The next foot fetish element is socks. Some guys just love the different types of socks that girls wear. The first difference is the length which range from knee socks to calf length to ankle to no-show. The sock encases and protects the foot which guys associate with his sex property and from my experience, it seems as though the knee high sock is the top preference. If you want to get your man's attention, wear a pair of knee high tube socks with stripes at the top, panties, with a full length football jersey and nothing else. He will be putty in your hands. The next specific quality about socks are the material. This makes a difference to a foot fetish guy. Sock material can range from the traditional thicker cotton athletic sock to thick furry or fuzzy types to dress socks that include argyle and finally the thinner ones made from lycra, nylon, or spandex like you would find in trouser socks. Guys love that tight, slick feel and you can rub your feet on your guy's face as you jack him off or order him to jack himself off. There are now toe socks where each individual toe is separated like a glove and toe fetish guys like these. Color can also excite your man. Many guys like the snow white socks because white represents purity and innocence like you would find in a school girls outfit or a low cut white sock with a pair of canvas tennis shoes. Some guys get off on the different colors just like girls wear on their nails. There are also socks with many different designs such as stripes, polka dots, zig zags, flowers, along with many additional varieties. Socks house your feet and your feet turn your man on and therefore your socks can turn your man on. +Let's discuss nylon or hose. From my experience, foot guys either love them or hate them without much in the middle. Foot guys who are pro hose, once again love the material, encasement and the ability to see the foot through the fiber. Foot guys also have their preference with hose. Color is the number one difference because hose have multiple varieties such as skin colors like tan and nude along with traditional colors like black, white with a variance of shades in each such as off black, jet black, antique white, off white, etc. After those, there is any color you could imagine. As like socks, there are different lengths that make a difference to a foot fetish guy. Nylon comes in 4 basic lengths and those are pantyhose that cover the entire crotch and legs along with the feet, stockings which are thigh high and can be held up with elastic or garters, knee highs which are held up with elastic, and finally ankle hose which are also labeled as socks but also can be made with thin nylon. +Now, length really doesn't change the look of a hose covered foot but the overall sexual presentation makes a difference to guys. The next variety in hose is material or fiber. Some guys favor thicker hose like you would find in spandex or lycra tights or leggings while others prefer the thinner material like nylon and silk. Fishnet and similar looks have also become very popular in which some foot guys favor. Another difference in hose is an additional layer across the toes or heels called reinforced. These are made to prevent against wear in the overused areas of the foot and cause the toes or heels to be darker in color. The final variance in hose are additions like seams running up the back, or bows tied on the top, and so forth. I have known foot guys to be so particular in their tastes so that is why we girls should always be taking good mental notes. +I'm going to have to limit my next foot accessory because I would have about ten pages and that accessory is shoes. Foot loving guys get so excited over our shoes because nothing really accentuates and showcases our feet more than the type of shoes we wear. Just to list a few are tennis shoes, boots, heels, slides, wedges, slip ons like Vans or Toms, pumps, crocs, stilettos, flip flops, and the list goes on. Foot guys also are particular in their tastes of color, style, open or closed toe, length of heel, thickness of bottoms, strappy vs. no straps, what part of the foot is showing, representation of the shoe which means who predominantly wears it, and that list goes on. He will act like your shoes are no big deal but to him, they are a big deal. Yes you will wear the shoes that match your outfit or fit the occasion but you can sometimes treat your lovemaking for that evening when you get home, separately, and he can choose your shoes for ""that occasion"" and truly appreciate it. +Use his senses to work for you +I will break down the five senses that can be used to stimulate and magnify a foot lover's sexual arousal. I also hope to share ideas or examples of actual situations and positions that you may have or can use when incorporating feet into your sex life. As I've discussed, a foot lover's and a guy's, in general, number one sense is sight. They are more stimulated visually than any other sense. Now touch is a close second but whenever you involve your feet into your sex life, make sure he can see what is happening. +Most of the topics I have discussed in this post have already incorporated visual application. The visual piece of foot sex also overlaps into other foot sex senses. If you are paying attention to the details and you effectively tease him, you obviously are allowing him to see your feet, or socks, or hose, or shoes. For example, your man is a bare feet guy who loves bling and flip flops so as you go out for your picnic, you surprise him by wearing your sexy flip flops and have your toes decked out with his favorite type of toe rings. You have just visually intensified his foot fetish arousal for the day. When you get home, you wear that to bed and during your lovemaking, spice it up by letting him enjoy those feet in the same way he has seen all day. I had a boyfriend who loved flowers on my heeled sandal/flip flops and when I would wear those with neon nail polish, we would have powerful sex that evening because I would wear them to bed and he would cum very quickly but he could do it a second time immediately afterward with no problem. +Another visual stimulation is shoe dangling. I could have put this into my teasing category because basically that is what you are doing. When I had my affair with my teacher Mr. Clark, it was the first tactic I used to grab his attention. I can't pretend to assume I completely understand why this is so erotic to foot fetish guys but I believe it's because the allure of partially exposing your foot as you would in trying to ""tempt"" or ""bait"" him sexually. As you sit in church, or the office, or in my case, class or the library, let those sexy shoes dangle off the end of your toes and ""Oops, one fell on the floor."" Believe me, any foot guys around will notice. +I'm going to share some other visual tactics you can use in your foot sex life which may be some things you have already tried or they might give you a great idea. I already discussed toe pointing as being a great visual for your man but don't forget other foot maneuvers that also work like lifting your toes to enhance your arch into an S shape, toe wiggling, and spreading your toes out especially if you are wearing hose. You may not be a tattoo girl like me but one day come home with a real sexy temporary tattoo strategically placed on your lover's favorite part of your foot. Flaunt it and make him notice it over and over while screwing. You are at the mall and make your man go watch you get a pedicure or make him get one with you. He will act like he is all macho and resistant but if he is a foot guy, he will succumb. +If he is an artist, have him draw or paint your feet. If you are videotaping your lovemaking, position yourself where he can get a great visual of your feet. For example, if you are riding him in the reverse cowgirl position, put your feet up on his thighs so the camera can capture your piggies pressed against his flesh or if he is pounding you in the missionary position, press your feet against his chest. If your lover is over top of you while you are rimming him or sucking his balls, put your feet together and point your toes so he has that visual in addition to the oral stimulation you are providing. While you are masturbating for him, put your legs up so he can get a great visual of your feet suspended in the air. While you are giving him a blowie, lay between his legs on your stomach and have your feet up over your head so he can see them while you're sucking. These are just a few visual enhancements you can provide and hopefully they might help you create some of your own which are specific to your man. +The next sense I will discuss is ""touch"" which I have already stated is a close second to vision for foot fetish guys. Your guy loves seeing your feet but he also loves touching them. My first discussion focus that involves touching is rubbing or massaging. If you are like me and love having your feet massaged, then find a foot lover and he will take care of that desire often. I love having my arches and in the middle of my pads massaged with the thumbs especially in a circular motion. Direct your man into the type of massage you like. The next type I like is a two handed massages where your foot is the ""meat"" in his hand sandwich because he has one palm under your foot and the other palm on top of the foot so both hands are working both sides of your foot simultaneously. Have him also work the toes including in-between them. You may not realize it but while he is screwing you doggie style, he can hold your ankles, lift your feet and rub the bottoms with this thumbs. Direct him in paying attention to each foot equally. You can get creative and have a stop watch or a sand glass timer and give him a directive on how long your foot massage needs to last. When it comes to feet, he is very submissive and will listen to your time ""demands."" +The second focus in the touching category is kissing. Have your guy kiss your feet frequently. I found that spontaneous request for kissing your feet works best. Choose a time and place where it might be completely unexpected and even slightly inappropriate. I have been at an amusement park and told my ex that we needed to go off to the bushes because I needed my ""feet kissed right now."" I had on a sexy pair of open toed slides and he was very excited to fulfil my request. You can do this many places such as a library, classroom, church, club, restaurant, amusement park, etc. If he is kissing your feet as part of your foreplay or lovemaking, encourage him to go slow and kiss very sensually. Make sure you direct him to kiss every inch and each foot equally. You can actually be jacking him off or even riding his cock while he kisses your feet. We like our lovers to caress and kiss us so make sure your foot loving man does that to your feet as well. +Probably the most common ""feel or touching"" sense stimulation for a foot lover is the footjob. I think the two most powerful aspects of the footjob are the visual stimulation it provides and the fact that the very fetish he desires is actually performing the manipulation on his cock to orgasm. Don't confuse footjobs with him fucking your feet or even jacking off with your feet. The footjob is jerking his cock with your feet with the giver doing the work. Foot guys love this and honestly so do I. You can sit to his side, facing him, behind him with your legs wrapped around his waist, or over top of him while he lies down flat, as long as he can see your feet while they perform, he will be happy. There are a few ways to provide that pocket of flesh. I like to use my toes like fingers. Grab hold of his cock and slide your feet up and down, using your toes to wrap around as much of the shaft as possible. Of course if you have a larger space between your big and second toe, there are instances where you can put his cock inside that space and jerk it but he gets much less skin coverage and that might take him longer to cum. +Other footjob techniques include putting your feet together side by side which also covers less skin but gives him a great view of your sexy toes on both feet, simultaneously. If you are flexible, the best method is to press the bottoms of your feet together and use your combined arches for his ""pussy pocket."" He can also use his hands to help your feet jerk his cock while using this method. The next technique is using what I call the ""over and under."" I take the top of my foot and press it under the dick while using the bottom of my other foot on top of it. It is a good feel for both of you but more difficult to sustain without your legs tiring quicker. This is why I believe I use the over top body position a large percentage of the time when I give a footjob. I usually get a chair and sit it beside or sometimes even overtop the guy so to give my legs more stamina. I have friends that are always worried about their legs not looking good and I advise them that giving a footjob is a great leg work out! Also when you are more overtop the dick, you can use the ""press"" technique. That is when you use the bottom of your foot to mash or press his cock against his belly and ""stroke"" it by rubbing it back and forth. The friction will make him spurt in no time. +Some guys' love the barefoot footjob and I would advise to use lubrication unless he is uncircumcised because then you can use his foreskin as your lube. Lotions, oils, and greasy agents work best with footjobs because water based lubes like KY Jelly and Astroglide just get tacky when they mix with precum and not only do they get sticky, you end up having to reapply multiple times. The exception to this rule is if you are planning to have intercourse, then go with the water based lubrications. +If he likes hose or sock covered footjobs, then you have to be careful not to wear his cock out with too much friction. I like to use smaller, slower strokes if I'm wearing these coverings. I was dating this guy who loved for me to wear black reinforced toe stockings when I gave him footjobs so I would use the ""flat foot"" technique most often to prevent friction. Try giving your guy a hosed covered footjob while in the tub. The wet nylon is sexy and will increase his arousal even if the footjob you give him is underwater. There are actually guys that prefer you wear shoes when you give them a footjob and I have only done this with one guy and it was difficult but hey, he loved it. I ended up lifting my foot heel in a pair of high heels and pressing down, trapping his cock between my foot and the shoe until he came about 3 feet! I will discuss him cumming on your feet a little later. +Another great position for a footjob is with him sitting, legs spread, facing you. Not only can he see your toes, your body, and your face, if you're flexible, you can bend over and suck his cock while your feet are jerking it. This combination of sucking along with using your feet not only adds to his visual excitement, it also enhances the physical pleasure. You can have him put his legs together and sit on his thighs while you do this also. Because of the extra height, it is easier on the legs but harder to blow him. I have also sat on a lover's abdomen, facing the opposite direction while I jerked his cock with my feet but he cannot see what you are doing and this is a hindrance to his stimulation. Another thing you can do is make him jack off while he watches you give a footjob to a dildo or penis shaped food like a cucumber or banana. +Foot fucking is in the footjob family only your lover is doing the work. If you are tired or just not completely in the mood but your lover insists he cannot help himself, then foot fucking is a great solution. Not only does this prevent your leg exhaustion, he can control his pace and skin coverage. If he wants tighter, he can press your feet firmer together around his shaft or he can pumper as fast as he needs to get off. There are several positions in addition to the traditional footjob positions that I have just described. The first one that I have used is with me laying on my side on the edge of the bed. I just put my feet together and let him pump away but just make sure you have a towel for the mess. Another one is with you on the floor, lying on your back with your knees bent and your feet up in the air. Have him stand and fuck your feet while you get an added bonus when he cums on your body (at least I like that). Put your feet bottoms together, point your toes outward, and have him stick his cock in the end, long ways, where your toes are located. This gives him a deeper pocket for tighter feel. Lay on your stomach and have him fuck your feet in reverse. He can be standing overtop you with your legs bent and up in the air or you can have your legs straight with him down on his knees. Either way, he will love it. +Another ""touch"" category is foot rubbing. Rub your feet on different parts of his body in addition to his cock or crotch. Places like his tight ass, chest, or face are great areas to get him really excited especially while you are making love. I suggest not to rub your feet on him while having sex until you are ready for him to cum because from my experience, he will not last long. He is pumping along and has satisfied you, then stick your feet in his face and make him cum so hard while he is screaming his muffled scream into the soles of your feet. I also like to have him lay down on his back while I sit down beside him. I will put my feet in his face and rub it while I jack him off. He will love this and I know this can overlap into other senses like taste if he sucks your toes or smell if he inhales your scent but I will mention those in this category because your job is to provide the feet in his face and he can switch back and forth. +Additional ""touching"" ideas that I will share are you can have him wash your feet while you are showering or bathing together. Make him go real slow so he can get them ""extra clean."" Have your man paint your toenails for you or even give you a pedicure. Have him make a mold of your foot with clay so he can rub it all over. He can also make just a footprint of your pretty soles and he can keep that as a souvenir. There are just so many ways to incorporate touching into your foot sex life and with a little creativity and spice, you can increase both of your sexual bliss. +Taste is the next sense I will focus upon. Obviously he will not technically eat your foot so taste is relegated to the various things placed on your foot. Some guys get into the food scene. They like to lick things off your feet such as whip cream and liquid type foods. I personally like warm foods such as heated chocolate or warmed up honey. I had an ex who loved to pour champagne off my foot and drink it out of my high heel. I cannot pretend to understand this but he loved it and it made him fuck that much better. Place the food on you lover's favorite part of the foot, have him lick it off while he jerks his cock until he explodes. Food can obviously get sticky and messy so I suggest you bathe or shower together right after you finish. +Licking can also just be on your foot in general. He might like the taste of your skin whether it's perfectly clean or sweaty. He may just like to lick the crevices like your arches or between your toes. I personally don't mind the licking but I prefer it not be really wet in the end. I just don't like a ton of saliva unless I am going to finish him off with a footjob. Sometimes he gets so excited, he prefers to suck on your feet or toes. This can be erotic for both of you. I like to make my guy suck my big toe, slow and sensual to show me how he likes to receive his blowjobs. I have also had guys want to suck on my heel or even have me see how far I could put my whole foot in their mouth. I one time got all five toes and almost half my entire foot down an ex's throat! Girls, he wants you to deepthroat him so how about turning the tables. +If you plan on letting him suck or lick your feet while you're either jacking him off or while he's fucking you, I suggest you use them intermittently. My point is that if you use them from the beginning it can first make him cum too quickly like I have previously mentioned, without building him up or get him numb to the excitement. If you do something too much, it has the reverse effect. Stick those feet in his face or mouth midway through sex, pull them away, and then add them again with verbal stimulation. For example, your jerking him off while he is sucking your toes, pull your feet away and encourage him, ""Ooo baby, you like those feet don't you? You're not getting them because you have been bad. If your good, then you can suck on em some more."" Then you keep jerking him until you feel he is getting closer and you put your feet back in his face and command, ""Ok, baby. Suck my toes. Do it. Suck em like I suck your dick. That's it. Keep going...keep going...oh yes, that feels good. Suck em while you shoot your cum. Take your time and shoot it high in the air."" That surprise verbal addition will get him over the top in no time. Taste can also mean the accessories that are connected with your feet. I will discuss this more in-depth in my humiliation section. +The next sense is smell. Smell is probably what I understand the least but again I believe it only enhances the submission of a foot fetishist. The various scents a guy might like on a girl's foot can range from pleasant fragrances like soapy cleanliness, perfume, powder, or lotions to more pungent aromas like sweat, a day's wear, and musky skin or hose. I have a guy emailing me right now who craves smelling musky tan hosed feet that have been in leather boots all day while getting jerked off. Coincidently, I have done this exact thing in the past with a couple of guys. I will give the same advice in smelling as I did with kissing and licking. The sit beside, sit in front facing him or even on your belly sucking him while he smells your reversed feet are great positions. +Another suggestion is to spread your toes and stick them right up under his nose, then pinch them together. I also like to force him to smell by sitting on top of him pressing his face down with the bottom of my feet or use one foot on his face while taking the other foot and hooking it around the back of the head and forming a ""clamp"" to not allow him to move. I will advise that if you forcefully make him smell to roughly, then he cannot actually smell your foot's aroma and that is what helps him get off. Don't forget, you can make him smell your feet accessories also but I will, once again, wait until the humiliation section. +The final sense is sound. There are limited ways you can hear feet. I already mentioned hard sole shoes, heels, or boots clacking down a hard floor. Other sounds that can turn your foot guy on would be the rustling of your toes moving around in his face, the swish sound of your sock or nylon clad feet sliding across the floor, bare feet semi-sticking to your leather couch, the crackling of plastic that is being walked over, or even that slurping sound of a well lubed cock fucking your pressed together feet. When I think of sound, I think of the verbal banter that I provide when we are involved in feet sex. I can discuss it in a tone that is sensual, teasing, begging, baby talk, or humiliation when I am engrossed in pleasing my man. I will give examples of each... +Sensual- ""Oh yes baby that feels wonderful. Do it just like that. Oh yes, kiss my arches nice and slow..."" +Teasing- ""Oooo baby, look at my toes. I just painted them. No, you can't touch them until they are dry but don't they look cute?"" +Begging- ""Please honey, suck my toes. They need it so bad. Please suck every one of them."" +Baby Talk- ""You are so silly. Would you take my shoes off of me please?"" +Humiliation- ""You sick fuck! You really like my sweaty feet, don't you? Smell them then you twisted bastard! Smell them until I tell you to stop!"" +Whatever the situation calls for, work it to your advantage. +Domination vs. Humiliation +Without sounding redundant, I believe that the foot fetish stems from a sexual submission eroticism. However, I am not suggesting that guys who have a foot fetish are sexually submissive all the time. I am merely suggesting that loving feet falls under the submission umbrella. Now a guy is still a guy and he has innate animalistic tendencies fueled by his testosterone. This is what I believe causes a guy to feel the desire to either cum on his fetish or see cum on his fetish. I equate this to an animal ""marking"" his territory. If a guy loves breasts, he wants to cum on them. If he loves asses, he wants to cum on them and if he is a foot lover, this is no different with our feet. This actually works out good for me because I like cum. I know it's a slutty guilty pleasure but I can't help it. Just to feel that warm, thick goo gets me going. Anyway, I need to get back to focusing on the topic. +When you are giving a footjob, encourage him to explode all over your feet or toes. Just by your encouragement, that will enhance his sexual pleasure. I know it's not for everyone but I like to eat the cum off my feet while he watches. The key is to make eye contact with him, always smile, and lick it up slow and sensual. You can even show it to him on your tongue before swallowing it. He will go absolutely crazy with lust! Have him cum on your feet when he least expects it. He can be making love to you and when you sense he is about to explode, whisper in his ear, ""Cum on my feet. Please, when you're ready, shoot it all over my feet."" As he gets ready and pulls out, put your feet together, point your toes and let him paint them white. Even if you are going at it doggie style, when he pulls out, put your feet together and allow him to shoot all over the soles of your feet. Either way, he feels masculine and excited that he was able to spill his seed all over his most prized fetish. +Not only will a foot lover enjoy cumming on your feet, he also will enjoy cumming on your feet accessories like socks, shoes and hose. He will love cumming on your nylon clad feet or you can just use a pair of hose or socks to jerk him off with and let him cum inside them. They will wash out. Foot guys also like cumming on shoes, especially flip flops, pumps/heels, and boots. While they worship your feet inside your shoes, make them jack themselves off and cum on them. Of course you want to make sure they are your lower priced pair and not your Fendi ankle or black Delman knee high boots or anything cloth or suede. After you have worn a pair of knee high hose to work, conveniently leave them laying around so he can find them and I guarantee that eventually he will jack off to them. +Being sexually dominant and kinky by nature, I love to humiliate a foot lover and there are oh so many ways to do it. First, you have to find out what he truly enjoys so not to cross his sexual boundaries. The nastier he likes it, the nastier you give it to him. As I discussed, verbally humiliating him works wonders. Tell him how nasty, sick, and perverted he is for loving your feet. Make him smell, lick, and violate your feet in ways that make him look foolish. I have had guys eat their own cum off my feet and enjoy it. Smear your cum covered feet all over his face. Make him smell your dirty socks while he is jerks off in front of you. Stuff your dirty socks or nylons in his mouth while you jack him off. Make him get down on all fours and become your foot stool until you allow him to stop. Make him wear your pantyhose or high heels while you're fucking or jacking him off. Role play and pretend you are a stranger at work and make him get down on his knees, kiss, and worship your feet. Role play and wear a Hooter girl outfit and make him kiss and worship your nylon covered feet. Use your imagination as much as you need. + _Closing Arguments_ +Once again, I am not an expert or in a position to analyze peoples' sexual impulses, but I have a kinky streak and take good mental notes to give you what I think make guys with a foot fetish tick. Combining sex and feet may seem strange to some but if you have an open mind and realize that guys who have this fetish are normal, kinky people who happen to associate feet with sex, then that will help enable you to accept that and use this power to your advantage which in turn, the sexual satisfaction can be enhanced for the both of you!" +213,Football Game Foreplay,captaindave1,How To,2020-01-25,2020-01-25,2022-01-04 08:28:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/football-game-foreplay,Football game becomes a sex game.,"['Couples', 'Football Game', 'Foreplay', 'Oral Sex', 'Superbowl']",4.51,"Below is an adult game that is played during a football game. The events of the football game help determine what happens in the Foreplay game. In this game the players will likely (hopefully) end up with no clothes and a big smile on their face. It is called ""Foreplay"" because when the football game ends everyone fucks; the game is all about the foreplay that leads up to the post game wrap up. However that is not to say there might be an orgasm or two along the way. +The game revolves around favors. Favors are awarded after a team scores. When one player wins a favor, the other player must commit to that favor. Below is a list of favors, this is not an exclusive list, either player can add to the list during the game however both players must agree to any new favors added. +Favors: +• Remove an article of clothing, requesters choice +• Go downstairs to get a refreshment- food or drink +• Consume a drink quickly +• Perform oral sex- this can be standing, laying back, or face sitting etc- requesters choice +• perform digital stimulation- fingers to pussy, dick , ass etc.- requesters choice +• erotic massage- wet or dry, head, face, back, neck , pussy, dick, ass etc.- requesters chooses the area to be massaged +• nipple sucking +• Vibrator play- magic wand, little multi speed, sit on toy +• Dildo play- in pussy or up the ass +• Self pleasuring, putting on a little show +Each player is granted one free favor before game begins; the player can tell the other player to remove an article of clothing or suck down a quick drink or pretty much anything from the list. +Each player will have one time out per half that can be used any time. A time out can be used to steal one favor or reverse a rule. For example if a player is told to go downstairs and make a drink that player can take a time out and the requesting player will need to go make the drinks. At any time either player can buy one more time out but the other player will get 3 favors. +How to decide who gets which team +• Coin toss- one player picks heads or tails, if that player wins the toss they will choose which team is theirs or allow the other player to choose their team, giving the choice away will allow them to select a favor. If that player looses the toss the choice of which team and a favor will go to the other player. +When a team scores: +• The player whose team scores a touchdown is eligible to pick 1 favor than, if their team makes the extra point they will be eligible to choose a second favor however, if that players team fails to make the extra point, all favors are lost and the other player gets to choose 2 favors. +• The player whose team scores a field goal will be eligible to choose one favor. However if a field goal is attempted and missed the favor goes to the other player. +• For favors where a player is performing an act such as oral sex or an erotic massage the favor will last for as many minutes as the number of points scored, for example if a touchdown and the extra point were scored the favor would last for 7 minutes, a field goal favor would last 3 minutes. Any favor request that is not directly related to a score will be 4 minutes. The exception is of course, clothes; once they are gone, they are gone. +• When one player is receiving a favor, they can use a time out to double that favor. For example a 7 minute erotic massage can turn into a 14 minute massage by the recipient simply using a time out. +Fumbles and interceptions: In the game of football, fumbles and interceptions are very costly; in the Football Foreplay Game, the same is true. +• When a player's team loses control of the ball, the player will also lose control until their team is in possession of the ball again. +• The player who lost control will have their hands tied over their heads standing or laid out spread eagle. Losers choice +• In either case, the bound player will have to submit to whatever intimate actions the other player wishes to impose. This may involve kissing, touching, inserting, vibrating, sucking, licking, oil, lotions, talking dirty. In all cases it is all about intimacy and fun. +• If your team were to fumble or have an interception just before half time, they might not have possession again until after half time. +• Time outs can be used to avoid being tied; if one player uses a time out to avoid being tied the other player will have to take their place. +In the event that a quarter passes with no scoring each player will be awarded 2 favors at the end of each quarter. +If during regular play one of the players really wants an orgasm they have the option to convince the other player that is ok. +Items needed: +Magic wand, dildo or two, slim vib, lube, oil, lotion, towel, couple ropes, towel. +Once all is said and done, the winner will be responsible to plan a sexy date night for both players to enjoy. The date can be out or in but it has to be sexy. Who knows if this game is as much fun as it could be, date night might be to watch another football game." +214,For First Timers,FriskyVirgin,How To,2007-05-19,2007-05-19,2022-01-04 08:28:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/for-first-timers,Advice for all about a woman's first time.,"['Female Virgin', 'First Time Advice', 'Sex Advice']",4.26,"HER FIRST TIME: +Most women are naturally a bit afraid of their first time having sex. Will I enjoy it? Will it hurt? Will I satisfy my man? Is he the right one? These are all questions that most women think about before their first time. The truth is that your first few times having sex will not be remembered as your best sex ever. Most women agree that the first time often hurts a little, is uncomfortable, and is often very clumsy. Once you get passed the first few times, you will start enjoying all the pleasures that this type of intimacy has to offer. +The first thing to consider is the person you are with. You want your first time to be with someone you really care for and that really cares for you in return. Since sex will most likely be not that great the first few times, the person you are with is what you'll want to remember. Many women often rush into sex before they are ready because their friends are doing it or because their boyfriend is expecting it. Neither of these should be a part of your reason, there is no correct amount of time to wait; you just want to make sure that you will not regret the decision later. +A few questions you can ask yourself are: Do I trust my partner with my life? Can I see myself having a long relationship with this person? Is he pressuring me? Is having sex for me, or for someone else? +Although everyone has anxieties, if you don't feel you are completely ready, wait. If the guy you are with really cares for you enough, he will understand that this is a big decision, and you don't want to rush it. You do not want to give it up to a guy who is worried more about his stature with his friends then your feelings. +1\. Choose a place where you feel safe and comfortable, your bedroom may be the best place. +2\. Choose a secure time when roommates / parents / friends won't come barging in. +3\. Gain some experience ahead of time. You want to have explored foreplay for quite awhile before you take the plunge. Having a good understanding of how your and his body works as well as having played together will take away much of the tension. Make sure that you feel 100% comfortable in the nude with the lights on, as having sex will be much more intimate then looking at each other. +4\. Communication is the most important thing in a sexual relationship. Make sure to talk about doing it ahead of time to make sure that you are both thinking the same thing. Getting the topic out in the open allows you to become more comfortable with the topic. +5\. Most women feel pain during intercourse the first few times because they aren't used to having an object penetrating them. This can be reduced dramatically through fingering. Whether you finger yourself or your partner fingers you, stretching out your vaginal opening will definitely improve the experience. +6\. Feel free to say stop when ever you want, whether you haven't started, are starting, or are well under way. It may be because you are getting cold feet, or something about the situation feels wrong, the reason can be whatever you want, just make sure the person you are with will honor your wishes. +7\. Although lubricant will not stop all the pain, it will definitely decrease it to some extent. K-Y Jelly is most often recommended, and it can be purchased in our online store. +8\. There are a few positions that are really good for starting out, depending on your concerns. If you want to be in control, then we suggest having your partner lie on his back, and you can straddle him ""cow girl style"". If you would rather be on the bottom, the missionary position is probably the best way to start. +9\. If your partner has difficulties with his erection, something that often happens the first few times, be supportive. This can be one of the most embarrassing things that can happen to a young man, and if not dealt with properly, can result in ongoing problems. If it does happen, try to stimulate him a little, and take some time before you try to put it in again. +Remember, this experience should be an extremely special and intimate time for both partners. Good luck, and remember, the best sex happens with people you care greatly about." +215,For Ladies Who Enjoy the Hunt,sueshows,How To,2021-02-26,2021-02-26,2022-01-04 08:28:44,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/for-ladies-who-enjoy-the-hunt,A primer for over 40 women to pick up men for sex.,"['Bar Pickup', 'Flirting', 'Over 40 Pickups', 'Suggestive Words']",3.95,"As a divorced woman in her 40's, I knew I would have to be proactive to find men. +I had maintained a better than the average figure, am 5'8"", and my best asset is my breasts. I enjoy displaying them when possible and have found men attracted to me merely because of their size. +After my divorce, I had several of the husbands of mutual friends approach me seeking sex. I turned all of them down. Their wives supported me in the bad times, and I wasn't going to let my sexual wants ruin our friendships. +I dated a few men, had sex with all of them but found them lacking in what I wanted. I ended each of the relationships myself. +Through a period of trial and error, I have the developed what I feel is my best approach to find my sexual pleasure. +I hope you find my method works for you. +Good luck. +I started frequenting lounges and bars in various hotels in my city. I would go in after work, during ""Happy Hour' and sit at the bar to scoop out the possibilities. +Most men are there to met friends, but several are in town on business. This group is my objective. I will look over the crowd, sometimes using the bar's mirror to assist me, and once I find a possiblity, making eye contact, I smile. If he returned my smile, I would flirt with him until he approaches me. +I will ask if he's 'local,' and if he says he's in town on business, I will tell him I hope he can have an eventual evening. +We will exchange information, usually full of misleading information, and eventually get around to him purchasing drinks for us. Usually, the bar will be packed, and he will have to stand by me while I am seated on a barstool. +If he glances at my cleavage, I will eventually tell him I enjoy being admired, especially my breasts. Usually, my new friend will comment on my boobs, and the conversation will take a turn to a sexual nature. +I will brush my boob frequently against his arm, and if he responds favorably, I usually place my hand on his body. By this time, he knows I'm approachable for his pleasure. +Oh, am I! +I will ask if he has a room in the hotel and if he does, all the better. +Knowing he might not want to be seen leaving the bar with a woman, I will ask his room number and tell him to go first. I will stop at the Ladies' Room and refresh my makeup, and follow him later. +Knocking on the door and seeing him with his suit jacket and tie off is a positive. If he is still wearing both, it will be a pain in the butt to get the action started. +Once in the room, I will approach him and let him know I'm not there for any reason but sex. (Some men may think you are a prostitute). +I usually take the initiative and remove my blouse or jacket to expose my breasts. Most men will move to me and caress them. While he does, I will reach for his belt and unfasten his trousers. +If the opportunity happens, I will move away and begin to take off all but my panties and heels. I will tease him about how 'naked' I feel and suggest he do the same. +Once he is undressed, I will seek anywhere except the bed to make my next move. Hopefully, there is a chair at a table, or I will sit on the edge of the bed if nothing else is available. +Looking up into his eyes, I will grasp his cock and gently pull him to me. Cupping his balls with one hand, I will lick the tip of his penis. I try never to look away from him. I will tell him how excellent his tool is and how much I want to receive him cum in my mouth. +I will take more of him in my throat but frequently remove it to raise it to tongue his testicles. Returning to his cock, I will begin to take more of it and, if possible, let it slide down my throat. +When a man sees a woman taking him entirely (deep throat), he is beyond pleasure. +Withdrawing his cock from my throat and mouth and then slowly returning it up to his balls will have to cause a special effect. Possibly I will notice he is close to cumming. +Moving my head away from him, I tell him I want to feel his cock inside my pussy. Yes, I say pussy. +I will stand and position myself with my hands on the bed and spread my legs. I don't open them all the way. I want him to feel he is so large I need to open them more as he attempts to enter me. +Now is the time to see if he can get to my opening with me in my heels. Sometimes I am too high for them to make an entry. I will remove them and use my toes to alter my height. +As he enters me, hopefully, I will shutter with excitement on my volition. I love to feel a penis opening me and slipping in in a steady, fluid motion. I have never had to ask a man to go slowly or to wait as he enters me. +Telling him how wonderful he feels as he begins to move against my butt is a must. I want him to feel he is giving more pleasure than is humanly possible. +If I am enjoying him, I will let him take the lead and use me as he wishes. If the sex is lacking, I will encourage him to move against me harder; saying the word 'pound' always draws out his animal instinct. +I have no qualms about reaching my climax before he does. I want the pleasure I came to get, and I'll take it first if it happens. +I will let him take me as long as he wishes. I will tell him how wonderful he made me feel, telling him I might come again, whatever it takes to get him off. +If it is obvious he isn't going to lose his load in me; I will resort to moving away and again taking him in my mouth. The taste of our mixed juices is a turn-on for me, so I will make a show of cleaning him entirely. +I will lick his balls and then put him back in my mouth. I will lightly use my teeth to stimulate him. Sometimes that alone will cause him to cum. +If not, I will go for the 'win all' move. As I look up at him, I will run my fingernails over his balls. It never fails to cause him to fill your throat. +If I want to be unique, I will let the sperm escape my mouth and fall on my chest. I often will make a show of massaging the sperm into my boobs. +What happens next is unpredictable. +Often he will want to end the party.' That's understandable, especially if he's married to a religious man. Guilt is filling his thoughts. +He will invite you to take a shower, usually alone. +I suggest you hurriedly re-apply your makeup, check your clothing for cum and leave him with a kiss on the cheek. +I have told you my technique I have used multiple times to find sex without commitment. +(If the guilt trip doesn't appear and he wants to continue, it's your decision. If he is staying more than one night, you might be lucky to see him again. If he didn't fulfill your needs, try another hotel the next night.) +You can modify any or all of it, but don't give up and seek pleasure each trip out. +I suggest you modify your wardrobe to include clothing to show your best assets. Don't try to dress like a slut, but showing cleavage can sometimes be achieved by closing fewer buttons. A short wrap-around dress leaves all the areas available to modify if you wish. +Have fun..." +216,For The Ladies,Sshafer,How To,2003-12-28,2003-12-28,2022-01-04 08:28:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/for-the-ladies-1,How to keep him home & hard.,"['Call Work', 'Eating Dinner', 'Finger Fucked', 'Girl Friend', 'Ground Rules', 'Lady Friend', 'Phone Sex', ""She'D Made"", 'Spice Sex', 'Threw Clothes']",4.46,"My first post in the How To section was How To Seduce a Woman, but this one is for you ladies, and hopefully, it'll show you how to spice up your love life and how to keep him coming back for more. +First of all you should know men are visual creatures, aroused by what they see, such as breasts, nipples, buttocks, faces, luscious lips, or bedroom eyes. But you should also know that not all men are the same, and different things arouse different men. For instance, some friends of mine are turned on by long shapely legs and a nice firm ass and could care less whether a woman has big or small breasts. This may be what arouses your partner or it may not be, but in either case, you should know what turns him on and accent that part of your body. Always keep in mind what it was like when you were dating, before you became partners, and make yourself a visual feast. +Here's an idea. Sit down and ask your partner what would give him a raging hard on, something he's always wanted to see or do. Now, you might wonder why your partner never talked to you about what really arouses him, but the answer is simple: almost all men have fragile egos and are afraid you might laugh at them or get mad at them if they reveal their deepest fantasies. +Based on personal experience I can tell you two things most men would like to see. One is to watch a woman masturbate and the other is to watch their partner be seduced by another woman. When it comes to women making love, your partner may join in or he may not, but trust me, whatever he does, later he'll fuck your brains out. +So ask your partner what turns him on and listen to what he says. And probably one of his fantasies will be what I mentioned above, but if having another woman make love to you isn't appealing, that's fine. Let him know and make it part of the ground rules in helping him live out one of his fantasies. +Let me give you a couple of examples of what's happened to me. A very dear lady friend I hadn't seen in ten years called and invited herself over to my place. I told her to make herself at home while I took a shower, and when I came out of the shower, I heard her in the kitchen washing dishes. I threw on some clothes, went into the kitchen, and found her facing me wearing an apron, the kind the covers you from neck to knees. I told her to forget about doing the dishes, but she just grinned and turned around to face the sink, revealing she had nothing on under her apron. Well, the sight of her nude body gave me a hard on a cat couldn't scratch, and I told her she looked hot as hell and was ready to get it on right then and there. But she had other plans for us and asked me if I still wanted to watch her masturbate, something she'd said years before she'd never do. +Of course I told her I did, and she led me into the living room and made me sit down on the couch while she sat down across from me in a comfortable chair with arms. She lifted the bottom half of the apron, put a leg over each arm of the chair and proceeded to finger fuck herself into oblivion. I got so excited my dick was about to rip through the front of my shorts, and when she finally had an orgasm, I threw off my clothes and we fucked like a pair of rabid weasels in heat. When we finished making love and lay spent on the floor I asked her if she had ever made love to another woman. She responded that when she was younger the idea hadn't appealed to her, but recently she'd gotten curious and had made out with a girl friend but only kissed and felt each other's breasts. I asked her if she'd enjoyed it, and she said she'd got a kick out of it and next time would go all the way with her girl friend. +My second example involves an old neighbor of mine who has long since moved away but was what men refer to as a walking wet dream. She was in her early 30s and had had five kids, but she looked like she was only 20 and had the whole package, small waist, large breasts, heart-shaped face, long dark hair, and a vivacious personality. I ran into her at a local store one day, we got to talking, and I gave her my address and telephone number and told her to call me some time if she wanted to talk. Well, she called me two days later, and after talking for twenty minutes, the conversation turned to sex and within an hour, I knew what turned her on and what turned her off. She was amazed she'd revealed so much about herself, but she told me I was easy to talk to and started calling me every day. +This went on for over two weeks, but then I noticed a change in her mood and tone of voice. I asked her what was wrong, and she said her husband was ignoring her. She'd meet him at the door the night before dressed in her sexiest lingerie, and all he'd done was yawn and go to bed after eating dinner. She was upset because their love making had gone from every night to maybe once or twice every two weeks, and I told her he just might be bored. She said she'd tried everything to fire him up but they usually ended up fighting. I asked her whether she had ever tried masturbating for him, and she said she hadn't because she wasn't sure how to do it right. Then she started crying, wailing she was at her wit's end to know what to do, and I calmed her down and told her I'd walk her through what she needed to do. It took me a while to convince her I knew what I was talking about, but she finally said she'd do like I said and promised to try it that night. +Well, the next day she called overjoyed that masturbation had done the trick. She'd made her husband sit down in a chair in their bedroom, tied him up, and let him watch while she finger fucked herself only a few feet away. Then she'd given him a blow job while he was still tied to the chair, and he'd blown a huge wad into her mouth. When he started to go limp she'd stood just out of reach of his tongue, bent over and finger fucked herself again. Well, that had really gotten him going, and when she'd untied him, they'd fucked until the wee hours of the morning. She wanted to try having phone sex with me, and I played along, talking dirty to her. And she loved it so much that from then on she called me each morning just to have phone sex. +What I'm saying is if you want to spice up your sex life you have to be willing to experiment. You might try going topless while riding home with him from a party. And I know that works because I had a lady friend do that to me and I can tell you I was ready when we got home. It started out as a joke, with me betting her she didn't have the guts to go topless for twenty miles, and the next thing I knew she was buck naked not just topless. I have an open mind but it shocked me, and I told her she'd made her point and to get dressed. But she said a dare was a dare, rode all the way home that way, and when we got into the house, we enjoyed ourselves the rest of the night. +I can hear some of you saying, ""But I have kids."" So get a babysitter and check into a motel room or send them over to grandma and grandpa's for the night. And if you can't do either of those things, work out something that lets you and your partner have time alone, which is the important thing. And another way you can spice up your sex life is to call him at work and tell him what you're going to do to him when he gets home. Or put a pair of your sexiest panties or a nude Polaroid of yourself in his briefcase or lunchbox and call him at work and tell him what you did. +If you're open to the idea of another woman making love to you, I would suggest you approach a woman you already know. You don't have to eat her pussy and she doesn't have to eat yours. Start out slow and just feel each other up through your clothes. Then after a few times of this you might remove an item of clothing and go a little further. But don't rush it, go at your own speed. And if you do decide to do this for your partner, set the ground rules of what you will and won't do before you start, and this way there will be no misunderstanding that could cause a problem. And remember, you're in control, not him. Most guys are like little kids and it doesn't take much to get them in the mood. +And like I said earlier, all men are different, and you have to let him know that you're aware of that fact while he's talking about what turns him on. And tell him nothing he says will shock you. If he wants to wear your panties and bra, don't laugh, make a game of it. And always remember, no matter how tough the man is on the outside, on the inside is a fragile ego and laughing at or getting mad at his fantasies could ruin your sex life forever. And if you want him to do what you want to do in bed, you have to listen to him. It's a two- way street and both men and women must listen to their partner's needs and wants. +And once you both open up about what your sexual needs are your sex life will improve. You the cologne will attract women. Sales of the cologne go up with sexy women in the ads, but will stay the same or decrease if all the ad shows is the bottle of cologne. Men don't really care what the cologne smells like, they buy it because of the hot babe in the ad and what the ad suggested. +Remember, if your sex life is wanting or stale, try something different. If you have a regular night for sex, switch nights. Put some variety in your love-making. Try different positions. Do it in the living room or in the kitchen. Do a slow strip tease for him. Undress him but don't let him touch you. Put on some flavored nipple cream. Attack him in the shower. Meet him at the door dressed in a robe and nothing else. Spice up your lingerie. Buy a see-through bra. Wear a thong or edible panties. Go to a party wearing no panties and let him know you want to be finger fucked on the way home. Let him watch you get dressed in a garter belt, stockings, and a half-cup bra, and tell him he can take them off later if he's a good boy. While at a party or out eating dinner, flirt with him. Touch him a lot. Let him touch you. Exchange kisses while doing everyday chores. Rub against him with your breasts or pussy. Use your imagination. And always remember it costs nothing to try something different. +Well, that's my advice. Take what you need, leave the rest, or ignore it. It's up to you. But always remember men are boys at heart and if you stroke their egos a little you just might be surprised at what happens." +217,For You Hotwives Out There,PolySwingerWife,How To,2021-05-25,2021-05-25,2022-01-04 08:28:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/for-you-hotwives-out-there,How to be more feminine and attractive.,"['Deepthroat', 'Feminine', 'Hotwife', 'Hotwives', 'Kissing']",3.68,"Most men are not attracted to manly women. They are attracted to women who are soft, vulnerable, and accepting. Men are attracted to women who like men to be masculine. +You already know the importance of looking the part of a HotWife. Now you need to act the part as well. And a big part of being a successful HotWife is being feminine. You need to dress and act feminine. +A feminine woman is not judgmental. She is open, understanding, soft-spoken unless she is having sex. A feminine woman knows the power of her femininity. Too many women fear giving a man too much power, but a feminine woman knows that she can gain power over a man with her femininity. +Women's natural female traits (such as nurturing, caring, sensitivity, being oriented towards feelings) have long been devalued by our society. But in the male-female relationship arena, that feminine advantage can beat the pants off men - both figuratively and literally! +To be irresistible to a man, you must exhibit the soft, feminine qualities of a woman. Men are disarmed when a woman appears soft. Therefore, avoid competing with men outside of the business world. Men generally have a dominant style of relating to a woman when they are in an intimate relationship. Women who compete or act in masculine manner cause men to treat them like a man. This is generally true unless the man happens to be the type who actually likes domineering women. That is a subject for another time. +There is a quality that always magnetizes a man to a woman — even if she isn't the most beautiful, the one with the sexiest body, the smartest - and even if she isn't his type. In his book, ""The Romance Factor,"" Allen Lloyd McGinnis states that social scientists have discovered that while looks, money, power, and prestige are all important in attracting and maintaining a mate, none of these rates as high as the ability to be at ease. +The ability to be at ease, to act comfortable with yourself in the presence of the opposite sex, is irresistible. Others would call this quality confidence, but it goes beyond confidence. It encompasses a good body image, no matter what shape she's in. +A woman who is pleased with her body usually has a great posture, holds her chin up, is perfectly comfortable in her skin. Men always want to know that they can make a woman happy. Therefore, a woman who laughs easily (but not excessively) is often irresistible to a man. When a woman indicates that a man makes her happy, the man begins to become more interested and wants to please her even more. If he senses that he can't make her happy, he moves on. +While the majority of men find physical appearance important in their choice of mate, they tend to be even more attracted to emotionally stable women, fun to be around, and supportive. A woman's laughter is like music to a man's ears. As the saying goes, ""Laughter is the shortest distance between two people."" This is certainly true with men and women. +As women, we love to laugh, and men want to be the ones to make us laugh, or to provide the climate for laughter. When a man causes a woman to laugh, the woman's laughter gives the man a sense of gratification, strokes his ego, and makes him feel that he can make her happy. That makes for an emotionally charged sexual cocktail and makes the woman appear irresistible to a man. +This sounds like a real no-brainer, but just remember the next time you're getting dressed and feeling too lazy to wear high heels, get over it. It is hard not to feel sexy in a pair of heels; they change the way you walk as heels thrust the hips and breasts forward, rounding off the buttocks, making a woman sensuous and appealing. They make her feet look smaller and her legs look longer, firmer, and thinner. +This boost of the butt produces a curve of the lower back toward the abdomen which, in mammals, is the position of female sexual receptivity. It's no coincidence that strippers are still wearing stilettos after they've shed their clothing. Men love a woman in high heels. If you wear stockings as well as sexy high heels, then you can be irresistible. +If you wear no bra or panties, you are going to be irresistible. And that is important when you want to attract men for sex. Let's say you notice a man looking at you. You can adjust the top of your dress and ""accidentally"" show your breast. Doing this will get a man's attention. +If you are being lady-like and sitting with your legs crossed, uncrossing and recrossing your legs, showing that you have no panties on, can get a man's attention as well. +Even if you are full-bodied, you can look good. A short dress that shows a lot of cleavage is very attractive. +Just as important as your breasts and your vagina is your smile. Men like women that smile. When a man shows interest in you, and you smile at him, it is a sign to him that you are interested in him. Sitting or stepping closer to him says to him that you want him in your personal space. +As a HotWife, allowing a man, or men, to get close to you is important. Even asking them if it is okay to get a little closer to them can be seen as a come-on. Putting your hand on his thigh can work wonders, too. +If a man is close to you, make some kind of bodily contact. Lean against him. rub his arm or leg. Let this man know that you want to touch and feel his body. These are signals to men that you want to feel more of them. Men have had a corny pick-up line for years, but used by a woman it can be very effective. If you say to a man, ""If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me?"" the results may surprise you. +Physical touch is as important to men as it is to women. By taking a man's hand and putting it on your body, you are making a connection that both of you can feel. The higher you put his hand on your leg, or if you allow him to touch your breasts, you are telling him that you want and that he can have more. +When you allow a man to run his hand up your thigh, and he finds out you are not wearing any panties, you can be guaranteed that he will do more with his hands. +Asking a man to kiss you is a good thing to do, as well. He has his hands on or in you and you are asking him to kiss you. This tells a man that he can have you. And that is exactly what you want men to know. +Kissing is a fundamental expression of desire, intimacy, adoration, and passion for another person. Use it to your advantage. +Kissing is fun. It is something we enjoyed when we were younger and should still enjoy today. Some husbands do not want their wives to kiss other men, although they want the other men to fuck you. The reason many men do not want their wives to kiss other men is because of their jealous feelings, and that kissing is too intimate. +Your husband wants you to suck and make love to other men's cocks. He wants to see other men's cocks in your mouth and down your throat, but he doesn't want you to kiss these same men? To me, kissing is how you get to suck other men's cocks. You let them kiss you, you find out how good of a kisser they are, then you move down to their cock. +Sucking cock and letting another man or other men have intercourse with you is very intimate, too. The way I see it, if you want me to suck your cock and let you fuck me silly, then you better damn well kiss me first. If you kiss me, you are already in my mouth, and since we've gone that far, you should already know what I'm going to let you do next. +Sex itself is intimate. All of it is, from kissing to fondling to sucking his or their cocks, to letting them fuck you senseless. +Sex should involve all of the senses. You should be able to taste, touch and feel them. They should be able to feel you, taste you, and hear you moan. And your husband and you should see the light in each other's eyes. +While the brain is the largest sex organ in the body; sometimes it doesn't hurt to not listen to our head and just dive into something that we know works for us physically. While the clitoris has 8,000 nerve endings, the lips (both male and female) have somewhere around 10,000. This makes the lips quite the erogenous zone in their own right. +Blood flow is the key to arousal and lubrication. Kissing stimulates nerve endings which in turn increases blood flow. Once this cycle begins, the body begins natural responsiveness and triggers emotional responsiveness in the mind. The mind-body connection is a two-way street and while the mind may be the dominant force, it is important to never underestimate the physical contributions of a lip connection, whether it is your lips to a man's lips or your lips around a man's cock. +If kissing a man on the lips isn't your thing, remember that a man's foreskin has around 20,000 nerve endings and the rest of the penis has about 5000 nerve endings. +Men enjoy kissing as women do, but if given a choice between kissing and getting their cock sucked, men are going to choose the latter. Often a kiss can lead to sucking a man's cock, and it can go other ways as well. Not all guys like kissing after you have had their cock in your mouth, but your husband more than likely will like it more after you have sucked another man. +Both kissing and sucking a man's cock can be and are intimate. Most men will let you suck their cock as long as you want to, and often want it to last longer than you do. And that is not a bad thing. Sucking a man's cock tells him that he is worth it, that you feel he is worthy of having your lips wrapped around his cock. +When a woman sucks a man's cock, it builds his ego. It makes him feel like more of a man. Feeling a woman's fingers, tongue, lips, and hair on his cock is an amazing feeling for a man. When you really enjoy sucking his cock, it shows, and they can feel the difference. +The more skilled you are at deepthroating a man's cock, the better lover the man or men will consider you to be. Men like to feel their cock go past a woman's tongue and down her throat, and few women can deepthroat well. So, if you practice being able to, or already can deepthroat well, then you can be guaranteed the men will want to be with you again and again. +I will admit that it is much easier to deepthroat a smaller cock. Technically, taking a smaller cock entirely into your mouth isn't deepthroating, but you are taking his entire cock into your mouth. When you can deepthroat a much larger cock, it does give you a sense of accomplishment. On the other hand, taking all of a smaller cock into your mouth means a lot to the smaller cocked man. +When you take all of a smaller cock into your mouth, your gag reflexes are not affected. To a lot of women, that is important. That does not mean that you shouldn't want to get better at not gagging on bigger cocks, though." +218,Forever Alone's Guide,OzzyDaBum,How To,2012-03-19,2012-03-19,2022-01-04 08:28:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/forever-alones-guide,A collection of stories and lessons.,"['Advise', 'Dating', 'List']",3.56,"After my exile from my home to study the dull career of computer programming, I've been overexposed to the internet trolling and the quite side of living the bachelor's life. For me it was weird to image that some people couldn't blossom as I did, but some people just won't shut up about how its SOOO hard to find anyone. This is list for that ""Forever Alone"" guy that seems to have it all but can't use any of it. This list is for the guy who is nice, shy, kind but never seemed to get his break. This list is for that amateur looking for love or just a girl for the night. +This list is more about the stories I had in my long-lived short life, a collection of success and failures, but more importantly a collection of lessons. I'm not a miracle worker dammit, and if something like ""so.....you wanna go to a motel?"" can be spewed from your mouth (like it did from mine that one time) then this list is the LEAST of your priorities. I don't claim to know anything and this I purely made on my own experience and this doesn't mean I'm right or you're wrong. If you get a laugh or a little spark of knowledge, then I'm glad to be of service. If you are offended or disgusted by this, send me a letter and ill make sure to file it in a round filing cabinet along with my expired milk carton. +1) There are no boundaries. None! All the limitations and excuses we make don't exist. It's all in our minds. Age, position, class, relationship status, don't matter. It took me some time to understand this concept even thou Gustavo, my manager at my old job and my best bud Freddy kept telling me this. It hit me after I had a random conversation with a girl online, and was confirmed after approaching a girl who seemed miles out of my league. It's hard to explain this concept, especially to a pessimistic person because it truly depends on your own self-worth. +I was randomly wasting my time on the internet laying in the sea otter position with my laptop, as all my stuff was in storage or sold to pay the rent and tuition, and my true life calling slowly drifting away, and I was chatting with a random girl. Random bullshit, and then the topic switched to sex like it tend to do on that website. We shared some dialog and some experiences, I don't quite recall how, we started to describe in detail how we would ""service"" each other. One hot sexting session later, she was already offering me to come to Dallas and spend the week, and I quote, ""fucking her brains out"". Alas I had to refuse, as I had a job interview in the morning, but we'll keep in touch till next time. +This made me wonder, if it was in fact that simple? In high school I wasn't the football jock that went to parties and got laid. I was the geeky nice guy who hung out with in the small clique of good friends with mutual interest where we all complained about not getting laid, not having jobs, and similar teenage bullshit. And then comes this hot, five ten brunette who digs your style, and guess what, even after your friends tell you ""she's out of your league, she's too hot, she's too smart, she's never even talk to you, she probably has a man, she's two years older then you"" ends up ""inviting you up for some tea"". So to your standards, and boundaries, and limitations, I say nay! Nay I tell ya! Too bad that Maria had I different career in mind and left, but I wish her all the best, where ever she maybe now. I just hope she remembers me. +2) Things are A LOT simpler then we think. The best plans are the simplest ones. When things get complicated, things go wrong. Don't plan to go to meet your friend at a party where he might or might not invite his buddies' girlfriends' friend, and then blamed the aforementioned friend for not inviting her. Don't think that every girl in the radius is married or taken. Don't think girls have super complex password lock on their panties that only comes off if you submit to their every whim. Don't think you have to be a millionaire playboy basketball rockstar model to hook up with a girl. And don't think girls don't want sex (see entry 9). +Things are simple, and they don't need to be complicated. People tend to over- think too much and try to predict and prepare for everything, which is in fact impossible. That's actually the reason my roommate still can't get laid, and that bastard has some of the best openers and conversations started. Too bad that after about a day talking him you feel like shooting yourself in the face. Maybe that's why he is 29 and still can't get laid. Sure Oleg, you CHOOSE to be a virgin and don't trust women. +The best plans are the simplest ones. ""Hey, I had a nice chat with you, how about we grab dinner and talk more in a quieter place?"" or even ""Damn girl you a fine dancer, how 'bout I we head up to the club on Saturday night, show me some of yo moves"". Then you await her response and then your build your schematics. If ""Yes"" then comes the digits and plans are made (see entry 11). If ""No"" then comes your next move (see entry 13, 16). It's not rocket science, you are two adults looking to spend time together, and I don't understand why it has to be so hard. +3) Never back her into a corner, but always try to manipulate her answer to what you want. No pressure, there is always a way out and she must always feel that she is in charge whether she is or not. This is where the introductory story comes. It's one thing being pushy and another just being creepy, and it's a fine line for some people if humor isn't you cup of tea. +At this house party I meet a young blonde girl and we hit it off well. Both into music, starting to work in the IT sphere and after the initial introductions and rules of the conversations (see rule 17) we went out to get some cigs. Ironically enough it took some time to find anything open as that damn mountain town seems to stop living after 10pm, the time when I woke up and got ready to go out, on a Saturday mind you. That's where the moves were made, tensions created, and numbers and plans exchanged. She wasn't drunk enough and I wasn't sober enough for me to make my move but some failed results followed, but none compared to the ultimate fail when we went out for a quick beer run. +As stated before, I turned to her and asked ""so....you wanna go to a motel"" to which she responded ""what for?"" and me leaning in for a kiss. If that wasn't creepy enough let's take into fact that she was in a parked car on a random unknow street, after we found out that there is no alcohol after 12 in this damn mountain town, and she is miles away from the party alone with some guy she met 3 hours and half a bottle of vodka earlier. Yeah I'm surprised Alexa even looked at me in the eyes after we got back to the party. I'm sure many of you are either on the floor laughing at my stupidity or shaking you head in disappointment. Either way, yeah, I know. +4) Slow down all your movements and speech about 50 percent. Always pay attention to your posture. Straighten out your back, keep your head up high and keep that ""damn I'm sexy"" look on at all times. Some say ""Dress as if you are going to get laid today"" I say you can get laid with a T shirt that say ""I have herpies"" if you keep a proper attitude about it (if someone actually tries that, it would be epic). First rule to white guy class (not swag, swag is for dudes, class is for men) is confidence. It's easier to drive smooth at a slower speed, and it is pointless to drag race if you crash into a pole seconds after, with your new BMW that your thrifty father finally let you buy on craigslist with your own cash. Same applies here in terms of control. +Walking slow with your back straightened shows you are presenting yourself at all times. Talking slower is always more understandable and nicer to the ear then blasting away your entire day like a minigun to your best friend who is playing Call of Duty and can only respond with ""yeah, cool story bro"". If you can show class and posture while running, and can rap like Busta Rhymes in your everyday conversations then my hat is off to you. Also, remember that face when you are dressed for an interview, in this new Armani suit and your hair is just right and you can actually taste the gum after the excessive amount of mouthwash it took to clean up that motorbreath from smoking a pack of spirits yellow? Yeah, that face, where you just want to go ""Yeah, I'd fuck this"". Try to keep that face everywhere you go. Just don't forget your ""I got herpies"" t shirt. +5) Remember, you are the prime candidate, just like during a job interview; you are what she wants and needs. You are great and at your prime, whether she believes it or not. As long as you believe it, then it is true. This was truer at an actual interview for me rather than a metaphor for ones love life, but it stands true none the less. +""Hey John, listen I didn't realize you only had 2 years of experience and jeezs.....what are you like 19, 18?"" is what a recruiter asked me over the phone after our initial swap of papers and expectations. ""But listen, after reading your experience and what you did at your company, that's exactly what they are looking for, I mean talk about young blood, ill schedule an interview with the manger, I think he's gonna love you"". Indeed, I was exactly what they wanted, but not what they were looking for. The other candidates had over 8 years of experience and a college rep sheet, while I faked finishing highschool and was too lazy to go to college because my band finally took off. +If the same winning spirit came to me while I tried to ask out Jackie then maybe I wouldn't have just sat by and watched as some half backed short douchebag with a ""My Chemical Romance"" T shirt come and take her away to McDonalds for a ""date"". I mean, Jackie....why? We could have had it all! I thought I wasn't good enough for her and always had a low marking for myself especially for Jackie, but after seeing what kind of shit she settled for, it was quite a shame to see that I in fact WAS the prime candidate over that emo douchebag. +6) Its about trying not about succeeding. Never leave with the thought ""what if I did that"". Always try, no matter what. Even if you don't succeed, at least you tried. I'm sure many guys compared this rule to baseball, but frankly baseball is dull as hell to watch for me. I'd rather compare it to beer. Beer has always been a good catalyst to starting something, even if dangerous at times (see rule 20) but it always led to some kind of story. This brings me back to two examples of ""what if..."" scenarios. +When I was in 8th grade, the word leaked out that I had a mad crush on this hot blonde in my drama class. I don't know how the female clothes work, but you could see her panty line from across the room when she got up to do improve. What if I talked to her, what if I asked her out, what if instead of deny that I like her I said ""yeah, what of it"", what if? What tortured me even more was that she was in EVERY one of my highschool classes freshman year, and I couldn't escape this damn ""what if"" feeling. +In senior year however, when my buddies and I finally started a band after talking about it for such a long time, it happened. During one of our lunchtime gigs I saw a rocker chick with blue highlights in the crowd watching our show. I saw her around the school and was intrigued before, but now she was here in front of me. Inspired by the power of rock and roll and after blazing through my finish solo along with finishing the set, I saw.....that she was gone. Fuck.....not again, not this time. I ask my buddies to cover and I chase after her with my guitar still in on me. I find her near my English class and bust the cheesiest line ever. ""Hi, im John, I don't know who you are, but I think you are awesome"". And yes, it worked. She guest appeared in our band and I was at her house when her dad was out working the next week. She had a thing for incents, and I had a thing for her big boobs, so it worked out well. +Don't let ""what if"" be your life. I came out to Marsha at our graduations (well, her graduation because I didn't graduate on stage or at all for that matter) and told her about the misunderstanding and how I felt about her. As for Stephanie, she dumped me 3 weeks after and last time I checked was taking it up the ass from my ""friend"" Diego. But I got no regrets; I let that play it how it did. At least I tried. +7) Lying is acceptable if you can back it up. Telling the truth is the best form of a lie. It's best not to lie, but if it becomes necessary, then make sure it sounds convincing. If people don't believe the truth and rather hear a lie, then you're better of telling people what they want. +The best liar is not the one that practice but the one that almost never lies. Keeping the story straight is important, and yes, you can claim to be a Hollywood producer who's casting women to be in his new blockbuster film, but you better have a greenscreen and a camera at home to back it up, or keys to Universal back-lot if you know people. +Hell, even my fake id had my real name and date of birth (except the year of course) just to make sure that my story was straight. Women or anyone for that matter don't like to be lied to their faces (or at least by an amateur). Lie at your own risk. I screw up a relationship because she didn't believe the truth when I finally stopped lying. Her loss I guess. +8) Treat her like your little sister. You like her but don't really care. You choose to hang around her, and although you have interested and are willing to listen and accept her opinion and voice, she needs to listen to you. Mind you, I'm all for women's rights even though I have been called a misogynist by some on my ex's. If you are a feminist, it your right to think and say what you please, but I'd be damned if you tell me not to think or say what I please. There are women who like to be on top, in fact Tani liked that a lot, but when it came to paying for meals, and opening doors, guess who had to do that? I like that feisty attitude she brought along with her to the table (or rather the bed), but when it came down to doing something she couldn't do, I had my fun pointing it out to her, with SOME restraint of course. If you truly believe in equality and want an exact split in power and all that good stuff, then again, I salute you. While you do that I plan to head over to my local club or bar and try my luck in the ""real"" world. +9) Remember, you DON'T want sex, she wants sex. Women are freaks. They want it more than men, and yes, they watch porn and dream of being in a gangbang. When pushing for sex your doing both you and her favor. I'm sure we all heard women talking about the whole ""unfair"" comparison when they have a lot of sex they are called sluts wile dude are called studs. I'm also sure we all heard that a key that opens many doors is a master key, and a door that opens to any key, is.....a slut. There is nothing wrong with that though, I don't agree fully with man-whoring or even woman-whoring at times (see entry 13), but we all got a sexdrive and it is pointless to think otherwise. +During my time with a lady of the evening, this was more apparent than ever. Andy was like a bank teller, always happy and helpful in every step of the way, and upon seeing her on the street you wouldn't even guess what she does for a living with her look and attitude. Now there was a woman that loved her job. Not exactly the lustful temptress I expected from an escort, but more like a friend that let you borrow her gameboy during class while the teacher wasn't looking. What really gave it away was when she asked to stick an eight inch dildo in her ass while I was doing her doggy style (subtle, I know). But it's a good feeling to know someone ""got off"" on you, once with you on top and again with a self double penetration. She gave me a backrub afterwards as well just to seal the deal. I still think she looks like a chubby version of Katy Perry. Very classy, even offered me a shower when we finished. +Another noteworthy incident I can recall was with the stripper Elena (see previous body of work). She rocked my world in that private room, and if she still worked at that club I would have gladly came back for some helping of that Ukrainian hottie! In a place like that I managed to find someone like her and share a moment of passion, and not have to pay with money or emotional baggage. Not only was it amazing, it was the only thing real that I could find in that place. Still glad I didn't get herpies or found out I got a kid somewhere in Dallas. +10) The less you care the better. The more you say you ignore her, the better. I see it as an art form. Not caring forces the other person to step into your category and to contribute time and attention. I'm sure we all came to a situation where a cute girl liked you and was willing to do anything for you, while you were ready to be stepped on by Carrie and her high heels while she completely ignored you but for some reason always seems to talk to you. Even though Brittany was nice and caring and everything a normal guy can settle for, I wanted Carrie, the ""no nonce"" heavy metal chick, always displaying her allegiance with her low cut ""Megadeth"" t shirt, and eyeliner that would make covergirl blush. Why? Because she was the dream, she was the display model, the first place prize. Without make up and deep in her studies she was a normal girl and if we would be in a relationship this hot rocker chick persona would fade and the novelty of ""yeah, I tapped that"" does wear off. It was the fact that she presented herself as that and cared less, while Brittany was at my feet ready for me to change my mind and come to her, which I never did (see entry 13) +11) Discuss plans and activities like you would in a car dealership. Don't settle for less. You want more at the best price, and if not, then you're walking out right now. You don't want a coffee date and maybe a kiss on the check, you want to take her somewhere nice and get laid after. You have a deal for her and you will not take ""No"" for an answer, like wise if you are discussing favors and you want her to do something for you. +When I was hanging around Erin, which to this day I can't forgive myself for, I learned that you can and will become what the woman wants. God I can't believe I had to sit there and tell that dumb bitch that I'm NOT driving to Hollywood to help her pick up coke and weed from her dealer. What's worse is that I agreed to it after receiving the WORST blowjob in history. Yes guy, I know there is no such thing as a bad blowjob, but trust me I was most dissatisfied with a girl sucking my dick. What's worse is that I stuck around through her terrible music and her retarded white girl ebonics for some second base action and bought her smokes for plans for anal. I think I struck a new low when I smoked that cig with her and made out with that ashtray of a mouth. Luckily I had enough self respect to say no and just stopped talking to her (see rule 13). That however doesn't excuse the fact that I let her break me and make me do her biding. +12) Don't ACTUALLY ignore her. Always keep a link, but keep it at your terms. Keep trying and if needed, give up some ground when necessary. That's the mistake so many of us make: not talking to a girl like you're mad at her, avoiding her, or just plain out rudely ignoring her. That's NOT how it's done. You tell a girl that you are going to ignore, like you don't think you have enough time or that you're making time for her especially. Send her a text out of nowhere acting aloof while not responding to her texts. Reject her plans for lunch or whatever ""friendzone"" plans she might be building. You ask her and if she even hesitates, say it's ok or that you will find someone else, and act like you don't care while giving her multiple opportunities to say yes and still keeping friendly relationship. +I made a mistake by not ""ignoring"" but just straight out being mad at Shannon for being, how should I but it ""one that can't keep legs shut"". If ignoring her made her interested, my morals and emotions kept me from actually banging her. I just ended up ignoring her for real and then wondering why she isn't sucking my dick like she did to Freddy. +13) Know your worth. Sometimes it's better to walk away and look somewhere else then settling for a clearly loosing situation. Use with entry 16 to keep a nice balance of morals vs. hormones. This debatable between men, as some will sell out their own kind just for a chance of sweet pussy, while others will stand strong by their morals and standards awaiting their maiden in the sea of whores. +Another one of my so called ""friends"" Liam went through so many sell outs just to get laid. He joined a band to score with the rocker chicks. He joined the treehugers club to score with the hippie chicks. He got braids to score with some black girls, almost joined the army for, you guessed it, the uniform and chicks. He even ""tried"" to be gay and made girls into friends and THEN fucked them (This actually pissed me off the most). Now he is rocking the hardcore vampire scene claiming to love metal (poser metal, and screamo bullshit) while wearing impossibly tight pants and keeping that god awful emo hairstyle. God I think he is a dumber bitch then Erin. +He sold literally everything about him for some kind of pussy, he let it control who he was. He had no morals and standards and while there was sex there was no substance. While I too have claimed horrific things in the name of the great V, (Claiming Kesha was a good artist was one of them) I refuse to sell out my morals for something that will be gone tomorrow (of course there are expectations). Sometimes it's better to walk away, hell, it's better to pay for a hooker, as she will take your money rather than your dignity. +This doesn't mean, be picky as hell and if the girl doesn't meet your checklist don't even bother, but sometimes we know we can do better, and sometimes the head on our shoulders wins. I couldn't stand Erin any longer even if she had massive tits and was willing to do anal. Just like I couldn't see myself with Brittany who is pasting herself at my feet, and to be honest, I wouldn't be caught dead with her in my arms anyways. +14) Never bring up a question like ""How come your single"" that only refreshes their own options and self worth. Yeah that one is always a killer. You remember that friend that can walk up to you in middle school, damn-well knowing you are talking to a Julia, the girl you've had a chance with and with no remorse tell you ""You guys seem like a good couple"" or ""You guys should be boyfriend and girlfriend"". Needless to say it kills the mood and the bastards clears the scene before you can even try explain it as a joke or get her to play along. Hate that bastard. Think of this as you cock-blocking yourself, and even though it can be used as a lighthearted jab to raise and humor one's self esteem, in most cases it will backfire and you will appear like the desperate one and the one that cares more ( see entry 10). +In a group of friends it's much more casual and that's where the real easy going conversations happen, but it is important to lead her away from the fray when it comes to making your moves, as your asshole friend (we all got one, and if you don't know who it is, then you ARE the asshole friend) can and WILL ruin it for you. I remember when Kenny and I had our eyes out for the same girl, who was in our same friend circle. He made the mistake of being too pushy even in the group atmosphere, while I took her aside or made an excuse to leave the group while she and I touched base. He rushed it and got blown off, and I causally came in and took her to dinner. However that bastard wouldn't let up even after he clearly lost and at every chance tried to make me look bad. I mean, get over it man, you lost. +15) Keep the conversations going, there is a certain minimum amount of words that must be shared before tits or GTFO conversation can be initiated. You are using each other's time, so use it wisely. I still can't believe that this even a problem, but in today's cyber lifestyle I guess it should be addressed, as I have jumped the gun so many times even WITH a fast passed lifestyle and debaucher levels of drunken club rats. +I recall one particular instance with Daisy, a girl I met at a local club. It was my first time at the club and even though it wasn't my scene my good friend Jack Daniels made it that much bearable. My co-worker and buddy Jeff who taught me a great deal of playing the field, was there trying to help me score when I stumbled upon her. She wasn't bad looking and with that seductive look we clicked and my half drunk ass decided to dance. We exchanged maybe three lines of dialog and one of the lines was her asking ""how old are you again?""This however didn't stop me from sticking my tongue down her throat and then her taking control and nearly eating my face off. Needless to say it was hot. She even did that thing where you run up her neck with your tongue and play and nibble on the earlobe after I introduced it. She then one-upped me and played around with my ear, and then eventually tongue fucked my ear. Needless to say it was hot! As this debauchery was going and as I was fingering her, the music stopped and some douchebag named Randy had his bachelor party on stage. Totally killed the mood, and then I tried to salvage the situation. I asked if she wanted to head over somewhere else, but she without a doubt in her voice she blew me off and said she was with her friend. That redhead sure got the fire to let you finger her one minute and completely blow you off the next. Whose fault was it? Randy's? Yes, but we exchanged four lines of dialog and my finger in her snatch. It wasn't enough to seal the deal (apparently), and it was my fault in a way. +16) Don't let up. I'm NOT saying ""No"" equals to ""Yes"", that's called rape, but while the girl says no, alcohol and you are saying ""are you sure?"" Keep fighting till the last breath, against all odds. Again, I can't believe this even has to be explained but in this day and age the nice guy doesn't get jack because the bro douchebag kept trying and eventual succeeded at talking to the girl and if doesn't fuck her, he will fuck her best friend. Fucking Arthur, I mean come on! I had my eye on her for a month, and I actually know her hobbies and interest unlike your fake ""jeans with a tie"" wearing ass. And that tattoo look stupid as fuck.....like you. +I do not support rape, but normal nice guys, like I used to be, lost a lot of their balls in the last few years while the tan muscle-head douchebags still reign supreme, and then that bitch Lola complains ""Why can't I get a nice guy?"" it's because you shoot him down with you horrible attitude and only a true veteran jerk that is sex-craved enough is willing to put up with your shit. And yes, I still find you hot, but I stopped trying not because I chickened out but because your bitch ass wouldn't respond to me and would reject me at every corner and then wonder, ""why didn't he try harder, I guess he didn't want it"". I wanted it (I still do), but I'm not driving to East LA to pick your and your date's drunken ass up so you maybe can go with me to dinner that I had to pay for. The dinner sucked by the way, she was on her phone the whole time and then asked me the next day why I didn't talk to her. Dumb bitch, at least she took me home after that, and conveniently forgot her brother was still out of town. +17) Don't be picky when going out. Your friends Granma's birthday party or drunken debauchery party the office slut invited you personally, go to both (unless they are the same day, then fuck that shit and get wasted and score with Samantha and avoid making eye contact with her for the rest of the month at work). +Yes we all want that party we see in the movies, where the girls are hot, the booze is plenty and the levels of morality and perversion border that of the Hair Metal era (or a Def Leppard concert). The cold fact is, every party is NOT like that. Hanging with my current company, it's even safer to say that those kinds of parties happen less and less after 28. This however shouldn't discourage anyone, because the times I had with those guys I wouldn't trade for the world, and maybe one day I can even credit some of those guys for teaching me how to be a working member of society. Probably AFTER my massive ego lets me, my hair grows thin, and I sell my Gibson Les Paul to pay for my kid's massive traffic ticket. +I recall going to concerts for bands I never even heard of, and heading over to clubs with women that I secretly wanted dead (after I'm done fucking them that is) but at least I tried. Rather than being Oleg who sat behind his computer playing WoW, damming everything that was happing to him, I did something about it. Maybe it wasn't perfect, maybe I didn't have that much fun, maybe I WAS too drunk to diver and should have let her do it and avoid that fine and half a year trying to avoid being pulled over (because I sure as hell will still drive even with a suspended license). The point is, I tried (see entry 6) and now have a story to share rather that ""my main is on eredar"" or ""that y2k shaman is so broken!"" Go get laid you bulgy bastard, and stop whining about how women are evil just because they have ears and don't want to hear your bullshit spewing for hours upon hours. +18) Booze does NOT make you a fun person if inside you are just as dull as you are outside. Drinking is a wonderful past time and we all know you are finally legally doing what you've been doing for the past 6 years, but some people can't drink, while others just shouldn't. +This became obvious when a drunken Irishman promised to protect me by pulling a knife on the other guy if he didn't want to pass me the Guinness. This however is specifically directed to my bassist Sean. He is a nice guy and but also suffers from ""forever alone"" syndrome and thinks that booze will help. It will because he himself is a nice guy inside, but it doesn't always work like that. The two most common things that drunken people say are ""I love you"" or ""I hate you"". Alcohol doesn't make you fun; it simply pushes the border that was held in by our won morals or by standards of society. We are given a bigger cage to play in, sort of speak. +I recall being hit on by a tranny and it was alright at the time being (mostly because she looked good and I found out LATER that she used to be a man). David sure got a nice laugh at me when I claimed to ""like that hot read-head MILF"". Yeah, laugh now because I would have banged that if given the chance (and don't you judge me at all). But alcohol didn't make me talk to Kristen, nor did it give me the thought ""ehh she's got tits and a hole"". Alcohol simply let me say that out loud and not be ashamed of it. If inside you are an uptight purist then you will just let more people know about it as you spew some racist comment about Barbra and her new boyfriend Jim. Yeah I'm talking to Al, keep that shit locked away with you white sheet. Alcohol needs to be used as a motivator. Maybe you can't talk to that girl across the bar, but Alcohol makes you do what you wanted to do from the first moment you spotted those huge puppies just waiting to get out. That's why I don't get drunk home alone; it will just capitalize on the situation and remind me further that my hand will be my lover tonight. +19) IGNORE the previous rule when buying a girl a drink. Nothing sounds like ""I wanna fill you up and fuck you in the back of my civic because my parents are home"" like ""water and vodka with cranberry for the lady"". As much as I love that civic, I don't think a can fit that wale along with my tall skinny ass in the back of that car again. It doesn't mean I won't try, but again, no matter how drunk you are, ""No"" is shorter then ""Yes"". Even when I was drinking with that bitch Erin, I knew I needed to get to work and even a nooner couldn't sober me up that quickly, so I just pretended to mix Jack into my cola, while filling her up and getting more and more of those amazing tits in my hands. +Getting a girl a vodka wile you order a cola just looks dumb. I had to do it at my old restaurant because they knew I was underage, and Monica was a mean drunk who wanted her wine even after 2am when it was illegal to have it out. The next day everyone was looking at me like I scored with her, and even though we are still friends, I wish that I would have met her at a different circumstance so I could have proudly looked back and let my eyes say ""fuck yeah"". Main point of the story, suck it up. Drink you bud light and get a Redbull when she's not looking and try to sober up to drive her home in an hour or so. +20) College and Highschool is for learning a fun skill, learning to talk to women, and making friends and connections that will last you WAY after you decide to drop out and be ""an artist"". God how I wish to go to the simpler days and do what really matters. If I could go back to highschool I would do nothing involving school and concentrate on playing guitar, talking to girls and finding a way to get Hugo from getting that chick pregnant (the first chick he got pregnant that is). Then I would have gone to college, not for the work or education, but to assemble my band, and have tons of barely consensual sex. I can't believe I even cared enough to want a Bachelors of computer science, or even waited that long to drop out of highschool. But the people I met and the times we had, I wouldn't trade for the world. +Time is never wasted but rather used, but dammit, sometimes you know you could have used that time better. My first job was 18 an hour without any fancy GED and my next didn't require any college degree (not to mention tons of loans). I'm not claiming that education is bad, or that the facilities provided are bullocks (maybe a little bit, but that's purely opinion), all I'm saying we all got a different route. Same applies to talking to women. Some can get a woman in bed with such famous techniques as ""yo bitch"" or ""Your face, I like it"". Other will have to slave away in ignorance praying for a glimpse of female affection. Luckily porn is there for just that occasion. But porn will be a whole different topic. +So that's my ""Forever Alone's"" guide to women, a collection of short stories. If you had a chuckle or got something useful out of this, then my work here is done. If you find this to be ridiculous amount of ego-boosting bullshit, it's your opinion, feel free to write it down, mail it to me, and I will make sure it ends up in that special circular cabinet along with my expired milk (I really got to drink that milk in time, or just not buy it at all)." +219,Formulas for Success,Badlands1,How To,2020-09-24,2020-09-24,2022-01-04 08:28:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/formulas-for-success-1,First out her; in her last.,"['Fast Times At Ridgemont High', 'How-To', 'Hugh Mungus', 'Humor', 'Mike Damone', 'Satire', 'Swinger', 'Swingers', 'Swinging']",1.76,"THE MATH OF SWINGING +Male: ""Well, how about them?

Let's say females resembled Jared from Subway. Would you still treat them like princesses? No. They'd be immense, hairy, and possess a pair of balls. +If women looked like men, would you radically alter your existence to accommodate them? +If Jared was having his period, would you be sympathetic? +Nine times out of 10, men wouldn't lust women, and vice versa, if they didn't find the opposite sex physically appealing. +When driven by the Numbers, you'll encounter fewer problems if you swing solo, as opposed to being part of a couple: +There won't be any obligation to leave parties early. +Mood swings? +Not unless you possess multiple personalities, since you'll only have to answer to yourself. +It's basic math.

We all love 'em: the competition, the camaraderie, the companionship. And, if a game leaves us feeling ready for a dive under the table – well, that's even better! +Euchre's my game. I grew up with it. My parents and three other couples used to get together every so often for an evening of euchre. I just adored those card parties. My brother and I would get sent to bed just as the guests were arriving, but I'd invariably creep back down the stairs to listen to their banter and, on occasion, sneak a peek into the room. They were younger then than I am now, but at the time they seemed so ancient. I learned a lot about life by eavesdropping on their games. Above all, I began to recognize the sexiness in people of all ages. +I remember how shocked I was the first time I overheard them all flirting with one another as they played. I was probably ten years old and had just learned the meaning of the word horny. I knew the word applied to me because I couldn't keep my hands out of my pants, but it certainly wasn't a word that applied to ""old"" people – especially my parents! +They would set up two card tables in the living room and a smorgasbord of finger food on the coffee table. Spouses never played as partners which, although I wasn't cognizant of it at the time, was undoubtedly part of the reason I typically woke in the wee hours to the sounds of my parents fucking. Those weren't the only times I overheard them having sex, but euchre nights were always the loudest. +But, I digress – and as entertaining as such digressions may be, I'm here to teach you how to play euchre. If you already know the game, then perhaps reading this will give you an entirely new perspective. (Insert wicked grin here.) +Euchre (pronounced YUKE-er) is game for four players. (Foreplayers!) The person sitting directly across the table from you is your partner. The word has such lovely connotations, doesn't it? The two seated on your left and right are your opponents. Playing with a variety of partners will hone your skills, but there's nothing quite like the rapport shared with a regular partner who knows your... um, kinks. The finesse involved in thoroughly screwing your opponents is quite exhilarating. +The game is played with only 24 cards: 9, 10, J, Q, K, A of each suit. Each player is dealt five cards and the remaining four cards form the pussy – I mean, kitty. The dealer places the kitty face down in the center of the table (Mmm!) and exposes the top card. +Moving clockwise around the table, beginning to the dealer's left (the _eldest hand_ ), each player has the option of ordering the dealer to pick up the exposed card. In so doing, that suit becomes trump for the trick. If ordered up, the dealer takes the exposed card from the kitty and discards one from her hand, placing it face down in the kitty. +I absolutely love being ordered up as dealer. If by an opponent, I get an ""Oh, you think you can score on us? We'll just see about that!"" rush. If by my partner, even better. I'm being told: ""Take this, babe. Use it well, and we'll both get off."" Being ordered up by my partner is almost always accompanied by a little shiver of sensual anticipation, but that's just how I'm wired. Your mileage may vary. +There's also something devilish about ordering an opposing dealer: ""I am so sure of myself and my partner that I'm giving you a trump card. We're STILL going to get off, and there's not a damned thing you can do to stop us. So there!"" +If all players pass on the exposed card, the dealer turns it down. The table is again circled and players, in turn, have the chance to declare any other suit trump. If no one does so, the dealer is fucked... I mean, _stuck_... and must choose the trump suit from the remaining three. +Once trump is declared, the team that called it (the _makers_ ) must take at least three of the five tricks in order to score one point. Taking all five tricks (a _sweep_ ) scores two points. If they fail, the defenders are said to set (or _euchre_ ) the makers which scores two points for the defenders. There's a delicious wickedness in pulling a switch and spanking... I mean, _setting_... the makers. And, seamlessly passing the lead back and forth with your partner to sweep a hand is an incredible rush, much like the give-and- take of an intensely enjoyable 69. +In addition to the six trump in the named suit, there is a seventh – deviant – trump card. It is the jack of the same color ( _sister_ ) suit. The hierarchy of trump is as follows, from highest to lowest: jack (called the _right bower_ ), sister jack ( _left bower_ ), ace, king, queen, ten, nine. Thus, if clubs named, the jack of spades becomes the second-highest ranking trump card. A trump card, of course, tops all cards in the other suits and can only be taken by a higher-ranking trump card. +Let's talk tricks. There are, of course, five tricks in each hand. The _eldest hand_ initially leads. Players must _follow suit_. In other words, if a diamond is led then you must play a diamond if there is one in your hand. Failure to follow suit is called _reneging_ (pronounced ree-NEGging) and is cheating. Online and electronic euchre games will not allow players to renege, but in face-to-face games it's obviously possible. If no trump cards are played, the highest card in the suit led takes the trick. The player turning... I mean, taking... the trick then leads. +Most hands result in either one or two points for the makers or two points for the defenders. The exception being a _loner_ , which is worth four points to the makers. This is when your hand is so fucking amazing that you announce you're going to do it all – take all five tricks – without your partner's help. Going alone is much like exhibitionistic masturbation while simultaneously spanking the sass out of your opponents. (Don't be surprised to see your partner's hands slip under the table in symbiotic ecstasy.) Defending against a loner is almost, but not quite, as enjoyable. And setting a loner is, in my opinion, a mind-blowing orgasm of defensive play – but it still only results in the defenders scoring two points (unfortunately). +The deal travels clockwise around the table and play continues until one team reaches or exceeds ten points. Thus, a game could consist of as few as three hands or as many as nineteen. (When's the last time nineteen hands were involved in your foreplay?) +There you have the basics. It gets sexier still when the intricacies of strategy are added. _Table talk_ (i.e., revealing information about your hand) is prohibited, so communication with your partner must take place via the cards you throw – keeping in mind, of course, that your opponents are voyeurs to this nonverbal communication. +Now, are you ready for some _four play_? +# # #" +221,A Fucking English Lesson,secretsxywriter,How To,2017-10-05,2017-10-05,2022-01-04 08:24:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-fucking-english-lesson,How to choose the right word for your story.,"['Grammar', 'Guide', 'How To', 'Writing']",4.85,"Thanks to everyone who has commented and offered suggestions for corrections and additions. +SSW +***** +I have been a fan of Literotica for over a decade, most of the time as a contributing writer. I even joined the Volunteer Editor program to share my skills with other authors. Not even getting into the issues with POV, punctuation, plot, character development, continuity, sentence structure, verb tense, or if a story even makes sense, I find myself saddened every time I read a submission where the wrong word is used. Whether it is from actual ignorance of the correct word or just a lack of proofreading, these types of errors tend to stand out more to the reader than any other grammatical mistake. +From my experience, many claim they do not care about bad grammar on Lit. Writing or reading it. They are here for one thing and one thing only, and they can overlook when a wrong word is used...even multiple times by the same author. That's great for some.

Likewise, bad grammar can do the reverse. +The ""list"" started as a way to vent on my Bio page. It was short (less than 10 words), and is actually prevalent on the Internet in various memes (usually depicting ""There, Their, They're""). A few have gone the way of adding the word ""fucking"" to the correct usage, which I found was abso-fucking-lutely brilliant. I added a few more commonly misused words after reading a story where the author had the lead character constantly ""wander"" about things in her head, and another where a character was always ""loosing"" something. The more I read, the more I edited, and the more my readers submitted their own suggestions, the longer the list grew until I had to modify the rest of my Bio to fit the character requirements. Now that it's become the length of a short submission, it's earned the right to be promoted to my list of works. +Spellcheck can't find incorrect word usage, only misspellings.

'Blowjobs', 'Gag', 'Gagging', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Oral Sex How-To']",4.51,"There are a lot of good how-to's out there about the technique of deep throat - a very worthy and noble pursuit. I mean, do you know any man that doesn't love sliding his cock _alllll_ the way into a warm, wet mouth, burying himself balls-deep and feeling a burst of hot breath through flared nostrils brush over his pubic hair while being looked up at with wide, adoring eyes? +Yeah, me neither. +Which is why it's certainly a skill worth cultivating. And I have, over the years. Over and over and over. I can take a lot of dick - I learned to relax my throat, to fight the gag reflex, to tip my head back to make more room. I learned to do it because I loved to see the surprised look on a man's face and the delighted sound of his pleasure when he realized I was going to take it all. And I can definitely do it with relish and even without gagging - not once (she says proudly!) +The thing is, choking while giving a blowjob isn't very appealing -- for a few reasons. It's not a very sexy blowjob if a girl is choking and coughing and her eyes are watering and she's apologizing the whole while for her inadequacies. Also, a man will often become self-conscious and his pleasure will immediately be diminished if he thinks the woman he's with is uncomfortable in any way or doesn't really like what she's doing. So a woman who can take a man's full length with nary a whimper and a great deal of enthusiasm is definitely arousing. +However... while taking him deep without choking is an end goal definitely worth pursuing, there is also an art to gagging on a cock. I know it sounds like a paradox. How could gagging on a cock be sexy if I've already said it really isn't? +Well, there's a subtle difference. The cough and sputter of a woman unable to handle what's being presented to her is decidedly different from a woman who, one moment, can take him fully into her throat, and the next is gagging and gasping and pulling his cock out of her mouth to whisper, ""God, it's so big!"" +Because what man doesn't love the knowledge that he's filling his lover completely, that she can't quite handle all of him, although she's oh so willing to try -- again and again and again? There's something appealing about a woman who is willing to gag on her lover's cock -- and _willing_ is the optimum word there. +If it's clear that she's uncomfortable, that she's inexperienced and truly not having any fun, it will turn most men off. But if her enthusiasm is so great, her hunger and greed for cock so compelling she can't control herself, that she takes even more of him than she thought she could handle and gags a little bit -- that's a turn-on. +But you really do have to be careful when intentionally gagging on a cock, especially if you've never mastered the art of deep throat. The best way to control the length of him going into your mouth is by wrapping your fist around the base of his cock. That way, unless he's extremely large, you'll have a manageable length to work with, and you'll be able to direct both the angle and the depth. +It's important not to start out gagging -- you need to show him that you really can handle what he's giving you, that you like it and want more. Using the rhythm of his breath is usually a good guide to how fast you should be going. Once he's beginning to pant a little bit and shift his hips, trying to press more of himself into your mouth -- let him. Take him deeper -- take him as deep as you can. If you're used to deep throating, don't worry about fighting your gag reflex -- go ahead and gag, then pull back and gasp. +He will probably be thinking he gave you too much at this point, so this is where it's important to reassure him, ""God I love it in my throat like that! Fuck my throat, baby!"" and take him into your mouth again, encourage him to move his hips, to shove his cock into your mouth. If you don't mind him grabbing your head (some women hate it -- I happen to love it) let him grab a fistful of hair and shove himself into your mouth. You may be surprised by the sounds he makes -- the growls and grunts and groans -- as he really gets into fucking your mouth, as he realizes that you really do like it and want more. +If you're not used to deep-throating, just keep your hand wrapped around the base of him. If you're brave or very experienced, you can move your hand and try to take all of him and let him fuck your throat that way. My lover likes it when I actually put my hands behind my back and let him take my mouth, surrendering to the thrust his cock completely. You will inevitably gag on him much more like this, because you'll have less control, and it can get very messy with all the saliva and precum. +And, of course, if you're going to finish him off this way, you'll have to make your own decision whether or not to spit or swallow. +Gagging isn't for everyone, of course. If you don't like it, don't do it. But I can tell you from experience that after taking his cock this way, I'm so wet I could float away and I often can't even wait and have to start touching myself while I'm sucking him. +So even if it's just an occasional ""Oh god it's so big!"" struggle or you come to like a full-out ""Please take my mouth!"" throat-fuck, gagging, if done right, can definitely be a major turn-on for both of you. +**\-----** + **> ^,,^<** + **\-----** + ** _If you enjoyed this, remember to leave some feedback and don't forget to vote!_** + ** _Thanks for reading,_** + ** _~*~*Selena*~*~_**" +223,Get Lucky & Score On Your Way Home,neonlyte,How To,2006-05-19,2006-05-19,2022-01-04 08:28:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/get-lucky-and-score-on-your-way-home,A twisted essay of twisted logic - except for the maths.,"['Cross Dressing', 'Fucking', 'Get Lucky & Score On Your Way Home', 'Lucky', 'Numerology']",,"**PART ONE - Numerology and Cross-Dressing.** +Getting lucky is an attitude of mind, and fortunately, it works for both sexes. Unfortunately, you have to play your part, just thinking 'lucky' will not of itself work, it's about style and dress, and how to impress, and when to be funny, and how to be mellow. And when to expose... your soul; touch another's soul, and you touch to the core of a person. But that's all long term stuff – we're talking short term. We're talking getting lucky tonight, on the way home, in the supermarket, on the train. We're talking fucking, not sex. +Before we discuss what you can do 'to be lucky', let's take a quick look at the odds for and against you getting fucked today, the likelihood is much better than you might think. With 6.5 billion people in the world, there is an awful lot of fucking going on. Take away 35% of that obscenely large number, to allow for the too old and the too young, and it leaves you with 2.1 billion couples in fucking mode (assume 1 female & 1 male, just to humour me), each and every day. The long relationship average number of fucks per week is 2.37 according to Deaders Rigest™, this is based on statistically averaging the four fucks per night of the couple who've just met right the way down the long slow slope to the one fuck per six months of the couple in the fortieth year of their relationship. If you are not getting the one fuck per six months, you just aren't putting the effort in, buy flowers, or chocolate. If you're getting the four per night, Vaseline helps, or talcum powder if you're finding the walking difficult. +Just on a personal note, we are doing our best, 2.37 is about our average, but I must stress, the .37 was not my fault, it had been a long flight and I was tired. +So where are we... 2.1 bn at 2.37 is equal to 29,868,926 fucks per hour, twenty-four fucking hours per day. Interested now!!! So in your average ten hour working day (that's actually a seven hour office day plus three hours for screwing around on the way to work, over lunch, and on the way home) that's 298 million fucks per ten-hours – roughly equal to the population of the United States getting fucked over every day, day after day, and actually, half the people on Literotica swear blind that is exactly what is happening, that the population of the United States is getting fucked over every day; in three year's time, it will be the other half of Literotica saying it, but that is Politics and this is Sex. +298,689,262 Fucks during your ten-hour working day – Feeling Lucky! +That means 8,296 couples fucked in the time it took you to read the above sentence (or 16,592 if you are a slow reader, or read the numbers out loud). You understand the implications of this... more than sixteen thousand people per second are engaged in fitting their bodies together in a squelchy, sticky, faintly odorous, definitely breathtaking, smoochy, finger-licking, humping kind of way. And that's just the ones fucking! +I can hear people saying this is a load of bollocks. Wrong, wrong, wrong – look at the figures, 130,860,569 births in the last twelve months equivalent to 1 birth per 2000 fucks. (You work it out – I've done enough math for you already) Now your average couple raises 2.59 children (UN Data), across a long married life of 40 years at 2.37 fucks per week that equals 5366 fucks or 2072 fucks per child. See the figures are right, worked from both ends; give or take seventy odd fucks, but they might have been extras, with the bloke next door or the girl in the office... So we can agree, roughly 300 million fucks a day. Your lucky day. How are you going to get yours? +Ok – here we need different approaches for each of the sexes. I'll take males first. +MALES – If you are not a Macho Bad-Boy or one of those soft guy's who only need to look at a woman to make her want to mother him (preferably at the breast) then you have your work cut out if you are going to fuck anywhere above average. Almost your best option is to wear girls clothes. Seriously! Dress up in girls clothes. For a start, this is going to get you noticed, by other males in particular, and by a certain strata of women who are both up for a challenge and determined to prove there is more to you than a pair of fishnet tights and a padded bra. I can guarantee you will get lucky on the first day you wear women's clothes, you might not enjoy it, but you will definitely get fucked. +If you don't fancy the women's clothing option, do not try to be more Macho than you actually are. The padded sock down the jeans can bring the WRONG kind of attention. Again, you will get fucked, but I guarantee you won't enjoy it. And any gal who is genuinely interested in a twelve-inch dong as thick as her forearm is going be well pissed off when she finds it's only the size of a stubby pencil. She's more than likely to take her revenge using a pencil sharpener. +If all else fails, use the old stand-by - flowers and chocolate. Work out how many women live in your town, place a bulk order, and get a discount. However, it could be cheaper to buy a wife through one of the Internet auction houses. +FEMALES – stand in any populated place, wait for thirty seconds. Choose. If no one has propositioned you after thirty seconds, send me a PM.

And if you have a man who loves to go downtown every chance he can get, great! But what do you do if your man either won't do it, won't do it right or long enough or if he treats pussylicking as something obligatory and a mere prelude to sticking his cock up your twat? Well, don't just complain. As a guy who LOVES to give head, here's some advice about what you can do to get your man to adore eating you for as long as you can stand! First of all, +1\. Initiate Sex: +Are you horny? Do you want his cock, his finger, his ass or especially his tongue: then let him know it! A lot of women, even if they're dripping wet and desperate to be sucked and fucked into oblivion, will wait for their man to initiate sex. Chances are that when that happens, a man is going to have his own agenda. But, why not start out with your agenda, instead of his? +So what if you're shy! Get over it! We know that women have moments when you want and even need sex. So tell us when that happens! If you're in a relationship, what on earth is the point of hiding your sexual needs? Is it some kind of weird power trip: if he knows you need sex, you can't ration it? That might have worked in the fifties, but surely we're way past that now. Besides, nothing will turn him on faster more than knowing that you want sex. So tell him! But how? +Words are best: nothing like an e-mail or a quick phone call to his office (provided it's private, if you need that) and a ""Honey: I can't wait till you get home. My panties are sopping wet."" Or ""I'm so horny and my vibrator isn't doing it for me; I need you!"" You can bet that he's going to blow off or rush through whatever overtime might have been in the offing (if he is the type who stays at work when he has a horny chick to come home to, what on earth are you doing with him in the first place?). +If you're reluctant to be that explicit you can always use all the tried and true chick come hither numbers. That's OK. But if your man is tired or depressed, he can miss the non-verbal cues, or worse, ignore them. Ignoring a verbal invitation is not an option for most men: 99 times out of a hundred he's going to accept, no matter how tired or down he is. +One final suggestion: a pre-arranged signal. One couple has a bride and groom from a wedding cake. When either one wants sex, they put it out where the other can see it: yes, it's really hokey, but it works. +So, why is so important for you to initiate sex? Because you score big, big points with your man just by initiating: men hate, let me repeat that, MEN HATE the burden of always having to initiate sex because unless you're hooking up with a nymphomaniac (whom most of us have never met, let alone screwed), initiating sex involves a certain probability (often quite a high probability) of rejection and attendant humiliation. When you initiate you instantly get your man's gratitude----and cooperation. And if he doesn't like to dive into your muff and polish your pearl, you will need some of that cooperation. So initiate already. +All right. You have your man racing to get into your panties. Now what? +2\. Tell him---yes, TELL HIM in WORDS---what you want. +Now, I gave you (reluctantly) non-verbal alternatives to initiate sex. But there's no way around this one---you HAVE to say exactly what you want: ""Honey, could you go down on me."" ""Honey, I need your tongue.."" The more explicit and urgent the better: ""Lick me!"" ""Eat me!"" ""Suck my pussy!"" Especially, if you're somewhat prudish or restrained, the more graphic and desperate your language, the more you will turn your man on and, maybe get his head between your legs, fast. +But what do you do if your man refuses or expresses reluctance? (Amazingly, there are some guys who are grossed out by the thought of connecting their mouth to their woman's pussy). If he refuses or if all you can get is a quick kiss on the twat you'll have to settle for that-----temporarily. OK, let him do his thing and start your campaign. +3\. Your campaign begins with talking (yes, you saw it right---a member of the male species telling to you to TALK to your man). +Personally, I am thrilled to talk to my partner about sex: it's so much more exciting and much closer to my heart than talking about kids or chores: but then I have an unbelievably open and understanding wife. And, as a bonus, it's often a huge turn-on to talk about sex, especially in public (discreetly or undiscreetly depending on how much of an exhibitionist you are). +Now I know that there are a lot of men---and women---who are too uptight or scared to talk openly to their partners about their love life. But I don't care if you have to go to a sex therapist to get a conversation going. If you're going to have a sexual relationship that lasts more than a few weeks, you need to be able to talk about sex with him. And the odds are overwhelming that he's NOT going to initiate that discussion. So first, accept the necessity of talking and second, figure out how to initiate it. +Once you have a conversation going, it's important to be gentle and supportive but also to let him know how you feel, what you like and what you want from him. Above all, avoid any hint of criticism or anger. Let him know you appreciate his willingness to be open and to meet your sexual needs. +First, remind him that it's not unhygienic to kiss your cunny: your bush is actually cleaner and more sanitary than his mouth (why else did God invent Listerine?). And reassure him that before you'll ask him to head south, you'll make sure you're really clean down there (please note that some of us men actually prefer that you not be overzealous about scrubbing your cunny, especially if you've been horny and wet all day; but that's another subject). +Second, let him know that (a) if the two of you are going to continue to have sex, then you want oral sex to be a part of it. (b) you're willing to take it slow and let him get acclimated; and (c) you don't want to expect to cum every single time he goes down on you, that he has the right to stop if he'd tired and that you don't want him to carry on heroically to get you to cum when his jaw is falling off. +It's way better to express your needs and wants directly than to abandon or suppress them or even worse fight him passively aggressively. Once you stated your position, it also helps if you let him know that you'll be patient and help him get through the awkwardness and that you appreciate his willingness and his commitment to satisfying you. And there are plenty of books and how-to articles (and yes, videos) that you can use to help initiate him into the ancient art of satisfying his woman with his tongue. You could start with some excellent pieces on cunnilingus in this ""How To"" section. Let him know, that you're willing to reciprocate (he'll be on really shaky ground if he likes having you suck his cock but he won't lick your pussy!). +Finally, you need to talk about is what turns you on sexually. If something has worked and he's done it right, let him know it----verbally, non-verbally, anyway at all. Just make it obvious that he's had an effect. Don't fake it or exaggerate too much. But do let him know what gets your juices flowing. +(An Aside about Pussy Juice). +Speaking of juices, there's no way to avoid having him deal with your nectar. To me, my wife's pussy juice (I suspect that many men feel the same way about their partner's juice) is the elexir of life, the yummiest, most delicious, most aphrodisical liquid in the universe, BETTER THAN CHOCOLATE (can you imagine???). If your man is not one of that group (and he'd better have a lot else going for him if he isn't), then you will have to initiate him into one of the principal joys of oral sex. +My experience is that most of you have at least some and maybe a lot of anxiety about how you taste and smell down there. And there are some times when your cunny might not taste or smell great. Start by finding out yourself. That means, to put it bluntly, you need to taste and smell your pussy more than once. If you're not comfortable doing that, how can you expect your man to be? +Now I can't speak for every single one of us men, but I think most of us are probably turned off by the smell of urine and execrement and the thought of swishing those in our mouths (not to mention your monthly flow). So try to eliminate those, but---please don't try to cover up with scented soaps or deodorants. I'm sorry, but even those of us who are not as totally nuts about pussy juice as I am, do not want to be sniffing—or worse, tasting--scented fruit soap or perfume in your nether regions. The idea here is to get your man to want the taste and smell of your cunt, not the latest Proctor and Gamble product. +Once you know that there are obnoxious experiences for him down below, then you need to start stage two of your campaign. +4\. The Campaign, Stage Two: Practising Kissing, Licking and Sucking. +OK, enough about talking and testing, let's get back to sex! The best way to get your man started on the road to great cunnilingus, it to draw the connection in his mind between kissing and oral sex. Now that may be obvious to you, but, trust me, it's not obvious to a lot of men (I was one of them). A great many women complain that their partners are not into kissing, don't seem to enjoy it and don't do it very well. You CAN change that (yes, you can). Start by assessing your own kissing skills: are you completely passive, waiting for the man to plant the lip lock on you? Do you swoop in and peck at your partner with wild abandon? Neither one of those approaches is going to convince your man that kissing is a rewarding part of sex to be enjoyed its own right and not just as a necessary means to get his wiener into your bun. +The first time I understood the mindblowing potential of a kiss was a few years ago after an obligatory lunch at a rooftop hotel dining room with a lady friend whom I had and have absolutely no desire to bed (I'm happily married and I want it to stay that way). She obviously had other ideas. As we took the elevator down to the floor where her room was (no, I didn't get out), she reached up and gave me the most seductive, the most tender, the most erotic kiss---ever!. Now, I've kissed a number of women (the order of magnitude will remain hazy in the interests of preserving my marriage). But that kiss was a revelation. It was an invitation, a . . . . words fail me. Can you kiss like that? If not, start practicing (this is something that you and your women friends can definitely discuss—and maybe even practice). And then take the initiative. Show your man what soft, tender, lengthy kisses can be like. If you blow his mind, you'll be on your way to having him blow your twat! +Once you have him started understanding and enjoying kissing, then get him into kissing, sucking and licking your tits as an activity that is pleasurable in itself rather than just as a prelude to intercourse (if you don't like having him play with your tits, then just skip this section). Now I haven't had hundreds of sex partners, but in my experience, very few women actively encourage their partners to suck and lick their tits, and that's what you need to do. +Take your breast and actually rub it on his face. Play with your nipple on his lips. Moan appreciatively when something he does turns you on. Above all--- tell him what works, what does turn you on and gently guide him: ""softer (or harder)"", ""bite me gently!"" ""yes, keep going!"". As long as what he's doing is even mildly pleasurable for you, keep him at it for as long as you can! This is training, and you want him well trained when you send him south! He needs to find out how to use his mouth and lips tenderly, how to prolong the pleasure, how to keep you on the edge. Every moment spent giving your tits pleasure is great preparation for him making love to your cunt and great training for you in communicating what turns you. So don't be in a hurry to send him down to the engine room before of you are properly trained and ready to perform your respective tasks! +When YOU, are ready, then you can give him permission to move further south (not all the way just yet; you guys have more practicing to do). This is where you learn to TELL him what to do, and make it whatever might turn you on. What you have him do is strictly up to you, but at this stage keep it relatively short. He could kiss your stomach, lick your thighs, roll his face on your mound; just as long as he keeps his face and his hands out of your crotch until you give the word. If what he does isn't doing anything for you, cut it short and get his face into your pussy. +(An Aside on Shaving) +I'm totally with Sophia Jane (""A Girl's Guide to Getting Head"") in the camp of do whatever is comfortable for you. If you don't mind shaving and you like the way it feels and looks, go for it! If shaving makes you itchy but you don't want a full bush, trim away. If you don't want to be bothered with shaving or trimming, by all means flaunt your beaver! The point is that YOU need to be comfortable with how your pussy looks and feels, and when you're comfortable, it's easier for your man to be comfortable with your pussy too. +And don't be defensive about your choice. Either way has its rewards for your man. Yes, I love the incredibly soft and delicate feel of licking a shaved pussy. (Feeling a woman's soft swollen labia with my lips is any unbelieveably thrilling part of oral sex!) And it's a definite turn on to be able to see a pair of engorged cunt lips or a hungry aroused clit emerging from its hood and begging to be sucked. But it's also great to feel a sopping wet bushy beaver desperately thrashing against my face. And a hairy cunt definitely seems to give off more delectable pussy smell! So, both shaved and full bush or anything in between, has its joys for the male tribe. It's your choice: experiment and go with what feels right for you, and if you want to change it, change it! +5\. The Campaign: Stage 3: +OK, his face is between your thighs. What now? +I know you may feel incredibly vulnerable in this position. But you need to remind yourself that you are the boss. If you man is inexperienced or repulsed by oral sex, you need to take charge and tell him what to do: namely, whatever he pleases you. Start by keeping it slow and simple. The first thing both he and you need to learn is how he can tease you. So have him experiment and tell him what works. You might have him stay away from your clit at first, and lick and kiss delicately around your outer lips, your mound and your perineum. Some women like to have their man take their whole cunt into their mouth; for others, that does absolutely nothing. Some woman adore having their man tonguefuck their cunt hole. For others, it's an annoyance. You need to tell him what's working, what starts the juices flowing for you. And you and your man need to keep reminding yourselves to take your time, take it slow and not rush towards orgasm. +If you're like most women, it feels better to be teased with a very light touch of his tongue. He needs to be guided to do that.. It took me a long time, a lot of practice (oh, the sacrifice!) and a lot of communication to be able to achieve the kind of light touch that delights my partner and sends her into orbit. But it's definitely worth it! (Note: you may need to remind your man to keep his mouth and tongue wet. Don't hesitate to give those kinds of reminders. It's much better that your man knows that than that you are uncomfortable.) +You may want your man to use his hands to hold your pussy wider. You'll need to tell him how much force to use. Some women love their pussies are wide enough so that they can easily tongue-fucked. Others don't. Also, some women like to have a man push his hand on their stomach. To others, that's a distraction. Either way is fine with us: just tell us what works. +Most women (but you may be the exception) want to be thoroughly teased and aroused before their man starts working on their clit. You need to tell him when the time is right and how you like your clit to be stimulated. Some women like a man to start by holding their clit gently in his mouth and then very gently flicking it with his tongue. Other women are so turned on at his stage that they prefer a harder touch or even a light nibble. +Again you need to communicate what works for you. And when you get to the point, where you can't stand being teased and you have to cum, your man needs to know that he has to hang in there and not break his concentration or his rhythm until either you cum or one of you has to give up. +At some point many women want their partner to use their finger or fingers in addition to their tongue. If you're among those, you need to make it clear when that would be good. For some women, especially those who get wet easily, it doesn't matter too much if a finger goes in very early. For others who need to be really turned on to have their juices flow, it might be painful to have their man's finger up their cunt too soon. +You also need to tell him what kind of digital stimulation works best for you. Some women love a vigorous fingerfucking. Others hate it. Some like their man to rub their clit with his finger. Others want a tongue exclusively. Almost every woman I know adores a soft, slow, gentle stimulation of their g-spot. A man needs some guidance to be able to do that. So give him that guidance: it will be well worth it. In my experience, a woman's orgasm is much, much more intense when both her clit and her g-spot are being stimulated at the same time. +When I do that right and I'm lucky, I'll get not just a squirt but a great gush of pussy juice right in my face. Now, there seem to be some men who are disgusted by the thought of their woman cumming all over their face (of course, they can't expect to be able to squirt semen on your face if they won't allow you to give them a facial). If your man absolutely can't tolerate your squirting on his face, you may have to draw the line there (although maybe he can compromise by letting you cum on his chest). +Fortunately, there are a huge number of men who absolutely live to give you the best tongue licking possible and take it as a personal compliment if you squirt on their face. This is such a turn-on for me that when it happens, I literally can cum without touching my cock! I can't tell you how much I adore the feel, the smell and the taste of pussy juice all over my face and in my hair! +I just hope that at least some of what I have written above will help you train your man to enjoy diving into your muff and giving you mindblowing oral sex.

With this I hope to give those out there something to think about and work from so that the next time they're with a woman they can give her one heck of an orgasm without having sexual intercourse. +Now all women are different and I myself only know what I want and what one other woman wants. I could generalize but that wouldn't help much, would it? So most of what I write about foreplay and fingering are going to be things that I know work for me and the other woman. Don't worry that the lady you try some of this stuff on won't like it, I'm sure that you at least know her enough to take what I'm about to tell you and tweak it for her specific pleasure. +First we'll start off with foreplay. Men, foreplay is your best friend. Most women want to be in the mood before having sex of any kind. It just feels better that way, it seems to become more personal when your body is all electrified and begging for something more. +Now here are the erogenous zones that I know of: +-Ears and earlobes +-Neck +-Shoulders +-Collar bone +-Inside of elbows +-Underside of wrists +-Fingers +-Palms +-Breasts (nipples included) +-Between the breasts +-Hip bone (you know that little bump on each side of the lower abdomen just under the navel and just before the mound) and the skin just around it. +-Lower back +-Inside of thighs +-Behind the knees +-Ankles +-Feet and toes +Basically I've named off nearly every bit of the body. But believe me these places each have their own specific spots within that if licked/rubbed/tickled will produce a very good reaction out of your woman. +Now I will try and give brief descriptions of how to work with each of these zones. Please note that feet and toes will get a very brief description seeing as that's not one of my zones so I know nothing about it except what I've heard. +Ears and earlobes: +This one's pretty easy. Some women like a little tongue in their ear. For this just make sure you have your tongue pointed so you'll be able to get into those tight spaces. Stick your tongue just to the opening of the hole in the ear. Then begin tracing the inside of the ear going from the space next to the hole and up the folds then around the outside of the ear. Do this very lightly. When you reach the lobe, lick/suck/nibble/bite, whatever you feel like doing or you think/know your woman wants. +It also doesn't hurt to breathe softly while doing this. Hot breath on the ear and the sound of it can send shivers down her back, especially after the ear is wet with saliva, the hot and cold of it all is very nice. +I also find that the spot just behind the lobe and jaw is a wonderful place to kiss or lick gently. +Neck: The neck. Probably the most thought of place when it comes to turning a woman on without touching her down there, and with good reason. I myself can have a wonderful orgasm with just having my neck kissed, nibbled, and licked. +This one is pretty simple. Maybe go here after you've finished with the ear. Use your tongue, still pointed, to trail lightly down from the spot behind the lobe and jaw. Don't worry if your tongue gets dry. All you have to do pull your tongue into your mouth while bringing your lips down to kiss while you rewet your tongue. +Once you've trailed down as much as you like, or your woman likes (each woman has a different area of the neck that sets her on fire). I'd try the spot where neck meets shoulder or just a bit above. +Just kiss this area, lick it like you'd lick a popsicle (meaning no pointed tongue anymore), suck gently, and maybe a bit of nibbling if that's what's desired. You may also like to trace shapes with your tongue here. Feel free to kiss gently up and down the neck, going from the spot where neck meets shoulders back up to the earlobe and then down again. This is very relaxing and yes, you want your woman relaxed. It will still keep her excited, so no worries. +Shoulders: Not many women prefer here but it can work if she's already in the mood. Same idea as with the neck. Kisses, nibbles, tracing. +Collar bone: Definitely a great spot. Again very simple with just kissing, nibbling, sucking, tracing. +Inside of elbows/underside of wrists/back of knees: These all go together because the skin here is fairly thin and sensitive to heat and touch. With the elbow you can start at the shoulder and kiss/lick your way down and then take her arm and bend it slightly or all the way, just so your tongue can slip in and out of the fold here. Don't let your tongue get too wet but don't let it get too dry either. I'd say your best bet is going for more wet than dry. +You can do that or you can leave the arm open and kiss and lick this spot. +Same thing applies to the back of the knee. +As for the wrist just kiss and lick and if you like you can nibble. But with nibbling don't try to grab some skin between your teeth unless your woman likes feeling pinched. Turn her wrist so you can bite the top side and bottom side. +Fingers: Men aren't the only ones who like their fingers sucked and licked. Basically however you like your fingers sucked and licked will work with the woman. Also try holding two of her fingers together and sticking your tongue between them. It feels a little slimy to her but still good. This might set her giggling or laughing but she's still in the mood (unless she hates slimy feelings). +Palms: One of my favorite places to lick on a guy. It works for women, too. Tracing with your pointed tongue works as does plain old licking and kissing. Hold her hand close to your mouth and let her feel your breath on her palm. Hold her palm over your lips because their soft skin feels nice. Then slip your tongue out to just barely touch her palm and trace around. Basically what you used to do as a kid when someone put their hand over your mouth to get them to take it away. +Breasts: This is where you can use your hands as well. Now guys, kneading is good and all but if I go by my preferences, it's not that great. Do some kneading (lots if your woman likes it) and then move on to using your finger or tongue to trace all over and around her breasts. You can tease her by getting close to her nipple and then pulling away. When you do actually take the nipple into your fingers or mouth here's what you can do: +With your fingers gently squeeze the nipple between them and roll it between your fingers gently. If you like try it a littler harder, the pressure depends on the woman (and sometimes how turned on she is). +With your mouth you can lick her nipple outright or you can suck it gently or hard and flick your tongue over it. She may jerk a little bit or gasp when you do this. Also you can take her nipple between your teeth and very gently apply pressure. Just like you wouldn't want a woman chomping down on your dick (unless you like pain) a woman does not want you clamping your teeth onto her nipple. +Between the breasts: Now here is one of my preferences so I figured it's a good suggestion. Simple kissing and licking is good here. Or you can combine the two. The best to explain how this is done is pretending like you're one of those sucker fish you see in the tanks at the store. Your lips are pressed to her skin and your tongue molds into the center. Wiggle it around. +Hold her breasts together and run your tongue between them. If she likes this she will love your dick between them with some lubrication. +This is a very new spot to me so I have no idea what's so nice about it. +Hip bone: This one you will have to be very careful with. Plenty of people are ticklish in this area. To get this right you will need to move slowly when approaching it and apply the right amount of pressure. +Too much pressure and it's no big thing, oh wow you're licking there, how nice. Too little pressure and she might buck and hit you in the nose with her hip bone and then the fun is ruined and all because it tickled. +To make this easier on both of you when you go for this spot put your hands on her hips with a thumb or finger very near the spot you want to go for. This will desensitize her skin enough so it doesn't tickle when you put your lips to it or your tongue. It will still tickle if you don't apply the right amount of pressure. But it won't be so hard to figure out. +Once you've got your tongue or lips on her here you can let go and use your hands to maybe fondle her breasts or run a finger between them. Or if you like you can play with the hair on her mound, but be careful as that may very well tickle her, too. +Now once you've gotten going this area is very much like the collar bone. Some sucking works wonders. Don't forget the tracing, licking, and kissing. +Inner thighs: This is a spot I wish men would focus on more. You probably should not go for this spot until you are ready to start playing with her down there. You can torture her by kissing and licking this area. +Use your tongue to trail up and down the insides of her thighs. Just as you reach the spot where her leg attaches to her torso go back down. I have also found that the skin between the thigh and the mound is very sensitive, much like the elbow, wrist, and back of the knee. +Using your tongue you can trail up this area between the thigh and mound and I can guarantee you that she will be wanting you to go down on her so badly she may start moving her hips. Whatever you do next is up to you. But don't leave her hanging too long or she'll get too frustrated and the mood will vanish. +Also sucking along that skin is great as is doing that along the rest of the inside of the thigh. +Lower back: Sound like an odd place? I know. The skin on the back isn't as sensitive as we'd like but it'll do. Now why the lower back? Because it's such a sexy area. You may also lick and kiss between the shoulder blades, just under that knob in the spine at the base of her neck. +Simple again. Just kiss, suck, and lick here. Tracing is good, too. +Ankles: Not the most sensitive of spots but there is a bit of thin skin just under the inside of the ankle. Pressing here with your tongue will have some affect on some women. Same thing as with the other spots on the body with thin skin. +Feet and toes: Maybe don't focus so much on the feet. I hear some men with feet fetishes like to fuck a woman's feet and some women with feet fetishes like to have that done to them. I'm not one of them so I can't give you much here. +The toes are a lot like the fingers. Treat them like you did the fingers. If you're afraid your woman doesn't exactly keep up her hygiene there then don't bother. Nothing worse than a tongue covered in sock lint. +~*~*~ +And now for the next part: Fingering. +Thick fingers help a lot. But moving them in and out as you would your dick isn't always going to get a great reaction. Sure it feels good but there's not much stimulation there. +Two fingers, at most, work best. Start with one and then move on to two and you can go from one to two and back again several times. +Now I'm going to include rubbing in with this. I prefer rubbing to actual stimulation to the clit myself. +You may start where you like, with the clit or with the vagina, it's up to you and your woman. I'm going to start with the clit. +Getting your finger wet is a good idea for this because the pad of your finger dragging and pulling at the clit doesn't feel that great. You may do this by licking your finger (or even hotter, in my opinion, getting your woman to suck your finger for a moment), or sticking your finger inside her vagina. As long as your finger is wet it's all good. +It's pretty simple stuff if your going for direct contact with the clit. Some circular motions, up and down motions, gentle pinching if you can, and light flicking. All will give your woman a good time. +You may even use you thumb to rub over the opening to the vagina as your working on her clit. Some pressure to the outside is just as good as it is on the inside. Women can generally only feel something for the first 3 inches inside her, after that it's all about pressure. +*Side Note* +Remember as long as a guy is at least 3 inches long you will feel something. It's not really the length that matters but the width. +*End Note* +Now some of you may be wondering about the rubbing. Aren't you already doing that? Well yes, but I'm talking about non-direct clitoral stimulation. It's my favorite. I really can't stand having direct contact. +With this you can just leave her underwear on if it makes it easier. If her undies are off be sure that the lips are covering the clit. Use your fingers to apply pressure to the lips and make circular, up and down, and side to side motions. If you know where the clit is between the lips while you're rubbing you can concentrate the pressure to that general spot and it'll work even better. +If you are going into sexual intercourse right after this you might think about using your dick to rub her clit. Open the lips up and lay your dick inside. As much as I hate this analogy it's like putting a hot dog in a bun. Then thrust like you would if you were entering her. If you feel like it's not touching enough then have her hold it down more or you can do that yourself. +If she is on top she can do the rubbing herself. It's technically direct contact but it feels more like indirect since the skin on a dick is smoother than on the pads of a finger. You don't have those tiny ridges of the fingerprints running over it. +Now for actually fingering her. Remember start with one finger then move on to two. If your girl is big enough use what's necessary. +You may start with the in and out motion but be sure to move on to other things. When you have two fingers in her flick them back and forth. If you don't understand what I'm getting at this will help: +Place on finger on top of the other and then slide the bottom one out from underneath. It will create a sort of snapping feeling (like snapping your fingers). It might make her jump but that's okay, she was either surprised or excited by it, or both. +Don't do this repetitively. It will lose its surprise value. Each time you do it you should be able to surprise her. +Another motion you can do will require you to be in a position so that the pads of your fingers are facing up instead of down towards her ass. +I'm sure most of you know how to get into such a position, but if not then it's best to be laying on your side next to the woman so your palm is touching her mound without hurting your wrist, as if just laying it down. +Now when your fingers are like this, pads up, pull up with them, bending your fingers at the middle knuckles. It's best to do this in quick, short motions otherwise you will just be pressing on her. With the quick motions your fingers will slide. +While doing this it's also a good idea to pull your fingers in and out every so often. +Now there are two things you can do while fingering her. You can use your thumb to stimulate her clit or you can use your thumb to rub her ass. Whichever your woman prefers will be great. +That's all that I can think of. I hope this has been informative and given you something to work with. Remember that it's easier to get to know the woman some to really know how to tweak what I've said so she will get the most pleasure out of it. +Also if you want to change things up a bit I suggest chocolate syrup, whipped cream, body dust, kissing potions, heating massage oil, etc. +Kama Sutra usually has wonderful things to use. Like their set of chocolates complete with calligraphy brush." +226,Getting Past Guilt,RisiaSkye,How To,2002-09-08,2002-09-08,2022-01-04 08:28:54,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/getting-past-guilt,Embracing fantasy and honest communication in your sex life.,"['Birth Control', 'Fantasy', 'Makes Feel', 'Mind Body', 'Normal Sex', 'Romance Novels', 'Sexual Fantasies', 'Sexual Fantasy', 'Sexual Fulfillment', 'Wide Range']",4.6,"When I got married, I had spent four years with my partner, but we had not once had a truly honest conversation about our sexual fantasies. We’d try, but then get embarassed or would tell only part of what we were thinking out of fear of judgement. To be honest, I’m not even sure we knew enough about our own fantasies to express them to each other, much less to start negotiating way to incorporate them, and their power to make us feel really nasty in a good way, into our sex life. Over the last five years, we have actively worked to overcome the barriers to our communication, and our sex life is better, hotter, and more mutually satisfying than ever. And, the benefits reach into other areas of our partnership--it’s tough to be cranky with someone who made you cum for an hour the night before, and it’s harder to judge or be insecure about someone who knows your most secret sexual self and loves you more, not less, for it. +Based on what I’ve seen in life and on the internet, an awfully lot of people are searching, often unsuccessfully, for sexual fulfillment. In that search, espeically on the ‘net, many spend some portion of their time consuming sexually explicit materials, words and images meant to get you turned on and fantasizing about sex. For some, porn acts as a substitute for a partner and provides masturbation material--arousal based on imagining one isn’t alone with their desire. And, in that capacity, sexual materials are utilitarian tools, the vehicle in which we drive toward release. For some people, even those with partners, the wide range of sexual words and images serves as a way to experience the fantasies that many (or most) can’t imagine having in their real life--power games, bondage, promiscuity, group sex, total control or lack of it, sex with “inappropriate” people like authority figures, religious leaders, and even relatives. And this is where things start getting complicated and the lines of communication break down, creating misconceptions and bad feelings. +In pursuit of sexual fulfillment, I suggest that we engage in a dialogue with our fantasies. First, we must learn to recognize sexual fantasy in our selves, our activities, and our culture. Second, by looking at how we feel about sex, and questioning the inner voice that makes us feel fear, shame, and guilt about sex we can start looking for its sources. Then we can decide for ourselves whether or not those messages are appropriate to our lives and our world and make some informed choices about sexual fantasy and behavior. And finally, we can overturn some of the false assumptions about fantasy and its relationship to real life by learning to communicate our fantasies to our sexual partners honestly, and to hear theirs without judgement. **Seeing Fantasy & Denying Reality** In other, more coded forms of expression, we can make excuses to ourselves about what we like and what it says about our fantasies: romance novels are about “true love,” not being aggressively fucked; the public is “appalled” by violence, even if each movie-of-the-week about abuse dwells in loving close-up on every blow, every bruise, and every tear; and empowered women certainly don’t secretly dream of fucking Daddy, so if fifty year old men continue to date twenty year olds, those girls must be gold-diggers or victims--in other words, deviant and wrong and not like “us,” right? Sure. And all those things have their place in our individual and cultural lives. They can even be a step toward realizing sexual desire--nice suburban mothers can read romance novels without fear of censure or worrying about harming her kids, and she can still enjoy the sexual fantasy, even if the writing and the sex are masked under flowery language and coyness substitutes for real foreplay. But they do nothing to substantially increase long-term sexual pleasure because they do nothing to make us confront our own ambivalence out sex--it’s the one thing everyone has in common, and the subject we’re least able to be open about in our personal lives and media-centered culture. +Erotica, on the other hand, puts the fantasy right out in the open, where we can no longer deny it. Thus, pornography makes us feel guilty; it is, in fact, the very definition of a “guilty pleasure.” It’s the magazine you’re wanking to when Mom walks in and you’re both mortified, the bound and gagged victim the feminist imagines herself as to get off, the desire to feel firm flesh filling his ass that makes a straight man question his identity and react with homophobia, the button-nosed pixie of a nice girl who also loves to fuck both men & women, and isn’t afraid to do so. It’s our shadow self, the steamy jungle of the forbidden, a living contradiction: pornography and sexual fantasy more generally create a place where we can drop our social roles-- gender determinations, various roles of responsibility and authority, and all varieties of “normality” and “acceptability” in pursuit of orgasm--and still be able to pick up those roles again after we come. +Because of this, watching or reading erotica/pornography (a distinction I find wholly arbitrary and meaningless) touches on the taboo: particularly in a cultural climate as anti-sex and rabidly anti-porn as the U.S., seeing or reading sexual fantasy and description invokes our most deeply hidden desires, the ones that for various reasons make us feel vulnerable to judgement and intensely guilty, and it turns our mixed emotions into sexual excitement. It makes us hot, but what it doesn’t do is make us feel good about it. + **Raising the Stakes: Recognize & Question Authority** Trying to contain sex and fantasy, telling people what to desire and how, when, and with whom they can have it, informs the social and political agendas of a wide range of groups; looking at the shared censorship goals of some divergent camps tells us a great deal about fear of sexual expression and the desire to repress sexual fantasy. Years after the Meese Commission spend **thousands** of hours looking at every possible variant of pornography--just to prove to themselves how horrible it was by looking again and again--the cultural understanding of sex remains stubbornly riddled with paradox: even the most avid smut collector probably hasn’t amassed, or even seen, nearly the quantity of porn that censorship campaigners have. It’s a drama many have exploited to make their name as public figures (Andrea Dworkin, for example) or to establish themselves as “pro-family” politicians. And now the picture starts to develop. +Misguided pro-censorship feminists have formed a troubling alliance with repressive-minded Christian conservatives in loudly denouncing the sexual fantasy represented in pornography, most commonly most aggressively targeting the fantasies which deviate most sharply from their view of “normal” sex. You know normal sex, right? It’s got a lot of names--straight, vanilla, mutual, and even _clean_ are common descriptors; more telling, though, is the name associated with the ultimate expression of this kind of sex--”Missionary style.” In case the name doesn’t already give it away, the implication of this kind of public discourse is that this narrow window of possibility is the only kind of sex church officials (and by extension, _God himself_ ) endorse-- monogamous and straightforward vaginal intercourse between married partners, aimed toward procreation more than pleasure, and if not actively denying then certainly unconcerned with female orgasm. The two camps have built their temple of purity on top of a long history of sexual repression and religiously-rooted cultural taboos, and have managed to make sex even more complicated than it has to be. +So, “nice girls” don’t do anal, “real men” don’t play with each others’ cocks, “strong women” don’t want to be forcefully taken, and “good Catholics” never wonder what Father’s got hidden under his vestments. By taking our fantasies and making them forbidden, political groups in search of power and specialists in search of money colonize our minds and control our bodies--letting homophobes, churches, psychiatrists, feminists, 12 step programs, and even the government take away our ultimate freedom of expression, sex and bodily pleasure. These groups gain power by making us feel bad about our desire, and their spheres of influence overlap and reinforce each other--church-sponsored guilt about “deviant” sex finds another support in (and also supports) sodomy laws and provides curious justification for the state denying gay marriage the property-rights and other protections accorded to straight marriage under the law. “Curious,” that is, in a nation that prides itself on having squashed religious persecution by virtue of separating church and state. These things are not just coincidences, and they don’t “just happen.” + **Mindfuck: the (Mis)creation of Sexual Guilt** This power over individual’s minds and bodies isn’t necessarily created with exploitively Machiavellian intent, enacted by evil people with evil plans; often, we adopt these models with the best of intentions--to protect physically defenseless children from violence, to help ensure that women are culturally valued as more than mothers and whores, to discourage emotionally immature teens from rushing into actions which carry potentially serious and permanently life-altering consequences. But, the teaching of these models comes to shape our identities and mold our perceptions of ourselves in potentially damaging, and always restrictive, ways. For instance, church officials (in some religions) tell us that birth control is wrong, and they justify it by quoting Biblical text (though I doubt Eve could have gotten a diaphragm, even if she wanted one) and invoking the ultimate fear of judgement and punishment, the wrath of God. +Divine judgement represents the totality of our fears--God is the Father (family), the Creator and thus source of all truth, and the ultimate authority figure who metes out eternal punishment and whose judgements are always, as a matter of dogmatic law and principled faith, true and just by definition. I’m not qualified, as I lack the Red Telephone to the Almighty, to question either the sources or the speakers who speak for God on the issue of birth control, but I suspect it’s more than coincidental that denying birth control to the converted helps to keep a religion’s membership roster growing. In terms of creating and sustaining the socio-political power of such religions, more children in the world (to protect and educate) is good, but more indoctrinated, obedient and tithe-paying church members is even better. It’s a little unsurprising, then, when churches lead the way in pushing for monogamous, married, procreative heterosexuality and the repression of all other sex. + **Struggle vs. Submission: Communication as Resistance** Guilt has real consequences and can cause real emotional pain, but its repressive power is not total--we have the capacity to resist inscription in the cultural codes which limit sex to the confines of Mom & Dad’s dark and silent bedroom. In fact, guilt can be turned to the purpose of sexual satisfaction, if you’re willing to manipulate yourself and take a little agency in the creation of your erotic self and fulfillment of your sexual fantasies. No, I’m not suggesting that everyone try to screw their sisters, blow the Pastor, or hypnotically create a harem of sex-starved zombies. Nor am I advocating an absolute abandonment of conventional codes of ethics and moral sentiments. I’m not even trying to imply that all sex is equivalent in my own mind--that I don’t have judgements of my own informing my thoughts and desires. +However, if we’re going to open our minds enough to make sexual fulfillment available to everyone who seeks it, then we’re going to have to broaden our understanding of eroticism rather than arbitrarily marking some desires deviant, degenerate, and dangerous. The first step to this is personal, and it requires an investment in self-examination. What I’m suggesting is examining our guilt about sex, and the anxieties about porn and fantasy which result, more closely as the first step. Then, armed with the fantasies we’ve learned to admit to ourselves, we can start honestly talking with each other about them, beginning with our partners and moving on from there until it’s part of the public discourse in a more honest and less fear-driven way. + **Coming Out: Embracing Fantasy without Sacrificing Personal Ethics** Only by getting past the need to hide our perversions can we start changing the culture’s attitude about sex and free expression; only when we recognize that even the darkest and most forbidden fantasy doesn’t necessarily make one crazy or criminal or morally bankrupt can we start making real sense of desire --and start turning those transgressive fantasies into safely satisfying sex for more people. When incest is the most commonly read genre of online porn, meanwhile parents can’t even acknowledge sexual desire when teaching their kids about what it means to be a healthy and responsible adult, something is really wrong--and the fantasy isn’t the problem. We need to learn that fantasy and reality aren’t, and aren’t meant to be, easily reconciled. The real risk isn’t that those incest-reading parents will fuck and damage their kids, it’s that they’ll stop talking to them at all out of shame or will send the children confusing mixed messages stemming from the parents’ fear of their own erotic imagination. We should be less afraid of the guy wanking to fantasy images of bondage and torture, and more afraid of the guy who disrespects every woman he’s involved with because he thinks only evil and worthless women want sex. +Is such a thing possible? I don’t know. Not overnight, certainly. But, in the bigger picture, I see no reason why not. So, embrace your fantasies and look for safe, healthy ways to explore them; after all, one needn’t be a young student to get a spanking from the stern Principal, any more than one must commit incest to hear someone say, “Yes, baby, yeah, show me you love it...oh, my good little girl.” The mind/body connection is more complicated than we think, but NO fantasy is so powerful that we need fear it. Maybe if we can all own up to our fantasies, drag our inner perverts out of the closet a bit, we can all stop feeling so guilty and afraid when it comes to sex. And as a result, perhaps we’ll learn to allow each other and ourselves more real freedom to express ourselves, in mind AND in body." +227,Getting Veterans Records,JagFarlane,How To,2014-01-22,2014-01-22,2022-01-04 08:28:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/getting-veterans-records,For veterans: how to get your US military veterans medical records.,"['Medical', 'Veteran']",4.47,"Recently I had to find certain parts of my medical records from the time that I was in the service and found that there was a lot of information available, but in bits and pieces. Most of the people that I spoke to knew only small parts of where to go and how to acquire the records. The fact that I kept getting sent to various offices and running into a variety of people, some who wanted to help but had no idea where to go, and many more who didn't care and left me at dead ends is what prompts me to write this. The process is different depending on the status of the veteran, if they didn't file a claim with Veterans Affairs, if they did file a claim with Veterans Affairs, and if they are deceased. +The first advice I'd have is for anyone who is still active duty and has access to your records, make sure you photocopy the records before you get out. This is especially true for anyone who plans to pursue an education as many schools and universities require a copy of your immunizations. +For anyone who did not submit disability paperwork, I would first trying going to the eBenefits website. If you're lucky they may have actually scanned your records in, if so then you can request parts of your personnel and medical files and get them in a very quick period of time. If the records aren't scanned in, well they at least e-mailed me back within a couple of hours. Don't be surprised if your records aren't there, I know people that have been waiting over a decade for access to their records online. +Otherwise, your records should be accessible through the Records Management Center of the Department of Veterans Affairs in St. Louis, Missouri. After the veteran passes away though, they will finally be moved to the National Personnel Records Center of the National Archives. Be advised that most of the Veterans Affairs paperwork telling you where to get your records will send you there. A couple of years ago the process changed and they are now at the Records Management Center, which is apparently in the next building over from the National Archives. +If you filed a claim with the Veterans Affairs then your records are at your regional office. Before you decide to just up and drive up there, be advised that if you go and visit them you probably will not be walking out of their office with a copy. From here there are two ways that I know of to get a copy of your medical records. +The first is to file a Freedom of Information Act request with the Veterans Affairs to get your records. I was advised that this method will take at least six months and most likely up to a year. Yes I know that the Freedom of Information Act was not designed to be used like this but that's how they do things now. +The second way, which should be much faster, is to find a veteran's advocate group, such as Disabled American Veterans or your state's veteran's advocates group. The way I found mine was to go to my local vets hospital where all of the local groups had an office. Generally the offices aren't staffed all of the time but if you call you should be able to find out who has an office there and a number for them to make an appointment. Once you have an advocate you will have to give them a limited power of attorney that will only allow them access to your records. Once they have that and have it approved then the advocates can access your files through the Veterans Affairs regional office. According to my advocate, this process can take upwards of a month to a month and a half. +Finally, if you are the next of kin looking for a veterans records after they have become deceased, then the records are being held at the National Archives National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis, Missouri. You can put in a request online and in approximately ninety days they will send you the requested information. +Unfortunately the process of getting records for many can be a very frustrating process, but I hope that this information will be helpful for anyone along the process. While most things I've dealt with in regards to the VA have gone smoothly, this seems to be a problem area for a number of veterans. Thank you for your service and best of luck in getting the records you need in the time that you need them." +228,Getting Your Characters Pregnant,PrincessErin,How To,2008-09-04,2008-09-04,2022-01-04 08:28:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/getting-your-characters-pregnant,A writer's guide to breeding.,"['Author Advice', 'Pregnancy', 'Pregnant', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Help']",4.37,"I have written a large number of stories involving characters who are either pregnant or want to become pregnant. It is a fetish of mine, which I consider to be on the tame side considering some of the fetishes out there. I have always found that readers love reading about pregnant women and breeding stories, especially those involving cheating wives, are always a popular read. +I have put together the knowledge that I have learned over the years to help authors in making their stories realistic when dealing with breeding. +Basics +1\. A woman needs to ovulate to get pregnant. Most women will ovulate once a month, or every twenty-eight days. That's the average cycle length although some women can have shorter cycles, around twenty days, and others can have longer cycles, forty to fifty days. +2\. A woman is most fertile three to five days before she ovulates. That is when she will have a lot of fluid and will feel wet 'down there'. If she doesn't get pregnant she will get her period between ten and sixteen days after she ovulates. +3\. Men produce millions and millions of sperm. Sperm is not semen. Semen is not sperm. Semen consists of sperm along with other fluids to help the sperm along its way. Men do not ejaculate gallons of semen however the longer they go between orgasms, the more semen there will be. The reverse is also true. The more times a man ejaculates, the less semen there will be. +4\. A man needs to ejaculate into the woman's vagina. The sperm will swim up into the cervix and then continue its journey into the fallopian tubes. If an egg is there, then it can be fertilized and voila, she's pregnant. +5\. A man's penis does not fit into the cervix. A finger does not fit into a cervix. The cervix remains closed tight except for during childbirth. +Now that we have the basics here are some suggestions to make your breeding stories realistic. +1\. Your characters should have intercourse in the missionary position. You can get pregnant in any sexual position you want, including upside down, however this position increases the chance of conception. Have the woman place pillows or something else under her hips to elevate her hips up on an angle. Once the man has ejaculated inside her, preferably deep inside her, against her cervix, the woman should close her legs and bend her knees into her chest. This will help the sperm stay inside her. She can remain in that position for a few minutes if she desires. +2\. A woman gets wet 'down there' when she is fertile. She will also have a high sex drive. It's a mating process for human survival. With that said, give clues in your story to make sure that your readers know how fertile the woman is. +3\. The best way to get pregnant is to have sex every day for a few days. Instead of having the couple copulate ten times in a row in a few hours, make them procreate every day for a week. This increases your sex scenes and makes it more realistic. If a couple is obsessed about breeding, they should know that you rarely get pregnant having sex only once. +Now that you know how a woman gets pregnant and the tricks of the trade so to speak, lets talk about pregnancy tests. Home pregnancy tests are available in most pharmacies and grocery stores. They cost between five and twenty dollars and although there are some fancy ones, the premise is the same. The pregnancy test has a section where a woman urinates on and if she has the pregnancy chemical in her body, the test will turn positive. +If a woman is planning to get pregnant, she will have one, two, or twenty tests at home. She might even have different brands, or all the brands if she is obsessed. If a woman had no plan to get pregnant then she will need to go to the drug store to buy a test. It's not something you generally have around the house. +The tests can be accurate on the day the woman is due to have her period. They are most accurate five to ten days after her period is due. If you remember my cycle lesson from above, a woman ovulates ten to sixteen days before her period is due. This means there is at least a two-week waiting period before she will know she is pregnant. +Each test is slightly different. One test has two parallel pink lines to show a positive. Another type shows a blue plus sign. The more fancy types are digital and will have a screen that will say 'Pregnant.' A test takes between two and three minutes to get the result although if a woman tests late the test can show positive right away. +Once a woman knows she's pregnant, she will normally go to her doctor's to confirm it. She will get a blood or urine test and then begin her prenatal care. +There are about a million different signs and symptoms of being pregnant and if you want to make it obvious then you can have your female character have sore breasts, nausea, heart burn, and frequent urination. More realistically, those symptoms won't show up for a few weeks, but then can begin early. +I hope this guide has helped authors who are interested in writing stories that involve breeding. It is up to you to decide who is going to be breeding with whom in your story, but when it comes down to it, it's all about biology. Your readers will appreciate your accuracy and this information will add an element of authenticity to your stories." +229,A Gift to Writers,Tx Tall Tales,How To,2013-09-09,2013-09-09,2022-01-04 08:25:00,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-gift-to-writers,"It's/its, your's/yours, to/too/two, etc. A writer's macro.","['Grammar', 'Homonyms', ""It'S Its"", 'Macro', 'Mistakes', 'Word', ""Your You'Re""]",4.55,"======================================= +It's/its, your's/yours, to/too/two, etc. + _I've learned a lot writing for Literotica the last dozen years.

One of the phrases that really struck me during the show was ""bush confidence"" (and no, I'm not talking about confidence in the President). I've thought a lot about it since, and what I'm wondering is-- can straight women have bush confidence? +Think about it: as a straight woman, you're unlikely to be familiar with the sight, feel or taste of pussy. Maybe you've seen your own in a mirror, maybe you've been adventurous enough to have even tasted yourself, via a partner or your own fingers. Most likely, the whole ""down there"" region is going to be a foreign concept, a forbidden land that is only entered by occasional partners (and hopefully a toy or two). How can we be confident about something so foreign, something we're taught is ""dirty"" from our very earliest years? And if we're not confident in our pussy, confident in our own unique appeal as women, can we really and truly celebrate and enjoy our sexuality? +Oh, I know a big part of the phrase ""bush confidence,"" as used on the _L word_ , was about hair and lack of. I know they weren't making a huge statement about women's sexuality, but, honestly, even the concept of shaving pubic hair is foreign, even bizarre, to many women. I had to have my best friend (coincidentally, a lesbian) walk me through the process. It is such a scary thing, with such pornographic stigma attached, that it's no wonder most women opt to just leave their pubes as nature intended. +But, back to my point. I completely lack bush confidence. It's been over a decade since I was up close and personal with a pussy (not counting my own), and I've forgotten the appeal almost completely. Sure, I'm somewhat familiar with the taste of my own, but after a decade of marriage to a man who hates oral sex, I've become almost ashamed of the entire ""down there"" area. And this sense of shame has carried over to my sexuality, making me one who aims to please but seldom allows my partner the pleasure of pleasing me. If I am ashamed of my body, of the very parts of me that make me unique as a woman, how can I give the gift of myself to another? +The answer is- I can't. And perhaps the reason for so many dissatisfying sex lives is that many others can't either. As women, we should stop being ashamed of ourselves, of our desires, our fantasies, and our bodies! We should not hide our smells and tastes. We should be thankful for them because they are part of us, part of the blessing and beauty of being a woman. +So how do we become ""bush confident"" you might be asking. It's a good question, one with many answers. The biggest obstacle to overcome on the path to ""bush confidence"" is your own mind. Those teenage boys who made fish jokes? Forget them. They were full of shit about everything, if you recall, so there's no reason to believe them about this. The guy with the weird hang-ups who always wanted to shower after having his mouth on your pussy? Forget him, too. He wasn't normal, and it was no reflection on you. I've been there, for ten years, and I know how easy it is to believe that your pussy tastes or smells bad. Trust me girls, it doesn't. The taste and smell of a pussy is sexy and sweet, with just the right tangy kick. Don't believe me? Ask a lesbian. They know a lot more about pussies than you do. For that matter, if you have a partner who seems to like giving oral sex, as I've discovered many men do, actually listen to him when he tells you he loves the way you taste, the way you smell you when you're aroused, the way you grab his head when he's doing something that feels good, the way your legs tighten around his ears as your body begins to tremble in climax. Listen to him when he tells you he loves to get his mouth on you, not because he wants a return favor (though, of course, he does) but because he enjoys it. Sure, there are men who hate cunnilingus, just like there are women who hate giving blowjobs. But they're a minority, and it's their own preferences that make them that way. It is not about you. There is nothing wrong or gross or bad about nestling between a woman's legs and feasting on her. Trust me on this. +It also partly depends on you, on who you are and what your particular hang- ups are. Are you like Charlotte from _Sex and the City_ who had never ""seen"" her pussy? If that's you, the first thing you need to do is find yourself a hand-mirror and a private space and get yourself familiar with your nether regions. Why does it matter what ""it"" looks like? Because if you don't know what your partner is seeing when he/she is between your legs, you're more likely to be ashamed and/or embarrassed. Things to notice when you're checking yourself out: the flare of your labia (otherwise known as your pussy lips), the varying hues of your folds of skin (who knew it was such a colorful region!?), and exactly where your very important openings are. While you're down there, why not play a little so you can witness the changes your body makes when it's aroused. +A slightly more advanced (and more fun for the adventurous) version of this would be masturbating in front of a larger mirror. Ever watched yourself come or admired the way a toy looks sliding in and out of your pussy? It's a beautiful sight, even for the most self-conscious (I know because I avoid mirrors, but still managed to take and enjoy some great pictures of the slide of a toy into my pussy). What you see in that mirror is similar to what your man sees when he's fucking you. Ever notice him look down while he's on top, watching his cock plunge into you? He's not checking himself out girls; it's what he's doing to _you_ that he's admiring. +Another important step to being ""bush confident"" is taking care of any hair issues you have. Does it bother you to have a full bush? Do you hate to see your partner pulling pubic hair from his teeth? Trim it. It's not a hard job, just requires some scissors; it's easiest while sitting on the toilet (instant disposal of the hair and easier straddling position). Just be careful not to get too close to the skin. Being trimmed isn't short enough? Go for the bare look by going to the salon and getting waxed or by shaving it yourself. Don't be afraid to go for it. Bare isn't just for porn stars, and I can tell you from first hand experience that being bare increases sensations, particularly during oral sex. For me, being shaved means instant and continual arousal. I want to be seen, tasted, and thoroughly devoured. And when I am being seen, tasted and devoured, I fully enjoy every second knowing that there isn't anything getting between me and his (or her) mouth. +Does it really make a difference whether you're confident in your pussy? Absolutely. If you're not completely confident in your body, in your womanhood, confident not just in your breasts or in the sway of your hips, but in every aspect of your body, it is impossible to revel in the innate sensuality and sexuality of being a girl. Not to mention that lacking pussy confidence makes it nearly impossible to _really_ enjoy oral sex. And while fucking is great, there's nothing quite like a partner sucking, licking, nibbling, and thoroughly tongue fucking you to multiple orgasm exhaustion. Speaking of which, I think I need a volunteer...." +231,A Girl's Guide to Getting Head,sophia jane,How To,2009-08-19,2009-08-19,2022-01-04 08:25:02,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-girls-guide-to-getting-head,A girl's guide to receiving oral sex.,"['Cunnilingus', 'Oral Sex']",4.49,"A few years ago I wrote a piece called the Girls Guide to Bush Confidence. To this day, it is my most commented upon piece; in fact, I still get comments and emails from supporters and nay-sayers alike. I also had the pleasure of co-teaching a workshop by the same name at a local toy store last year. What I've learned from all of that feedback and discussion is pretty much what I knew when I wrote it: that a lot of women are not comfortable with their pussies. Sadly, even more are not comfortable receiving oral sex. +Which brings me to a bit of a confession. When I wrote that essay, I wasn't totally comfortable with oral sex, either. Oh, I talked a good game, and I said all the right things, but I had my hang-ups still. I was damaged goods in that department, the product of too many years in a marriage with a man who didn't like giving head, didn't like the smell and taste, a man who would go wash himself off immediately following his once a year foray into the land of the pussy. By the time I wrote my essay, I knew in my head that the problem, if you want to call it one, was with him; I knew there was nothing wrong with pussies and pussy eating, that it was just his own preferences that had kept me oral-deprived for so long, but, even knowing that, I wasn't totally comfortable being the recipient, either. +So in this, the second part of a girls guide to bush confidence, I'm going to be totally honest and tell you about my journey from skittish to willing. One of the first things I had to conquer on my road to recovery was the idea that men give head because they feel obligated. That was, after all, why my ex headed south once a year, typically around my birthday. I'd hinted enough up to that point that he felt the need to do me the favor, but I never could bring myself to actually enjoy it. How can you, really, when you know that the mouth on you isn't there out of want but out of necessity? My first partner after my marriage was with a man who loved giving head, but whose ex hadn't let him. She found it gross; it was a perfect match in oral pleasures, but it was a short-lived relationship. In the short time we were together, though, he taught me that there are some men out there who love pussy, who LOVE giving head. He started me on my journey to just relax and enjoy the ride, orgasm or not. He also started me on my goal to never again sleep with a man who isn't ready and willing to head downtown. +And I was true to that to that goal. Though, of course, my journey didn't end there. The hard part for me was in believing a partner when he said he liked giving head, or when he wanted to go down on me. In the last two years, I've had three partners, all of whom are willing, eager even, to spend plenty of time being intimate with their partner's nether regions. And they've (finally!) taught me this: if a man says he likes to give head and then proceeds to give head on a regular basis, you ought to believe him. Just like I like blow jobs and give them on a regular basis because I want to, so do they. Oh yes, some men lie. Some men claim to love pussy, to claim to be so good at eating pussy that they'll make their partner come multiple times, or claim to be so good that lesbians couldn't do it better (I wonder how one compares that!). And those same men may do it, and do it regularly, but not because they love the taste and smell and sounds of a woman in heat, but because it gets them where they want to be: laid. But I think, if we trust our instincts and listen to our bodies, it becomes pretty simple to tell the difference. A man in lust with pussy isn't hard to identify if we let go of our hang ups and pay attention. So girls, the point I'm making here is this: there are men who love doing it; in fact, there are many many men who love doing it. So why not let them? If it makes you feel good, and it makes him feel good to make you feel good, what the hell is the problem? +But yes, I know it's not that easy. The second thing I had to get over was how long it takes me to orgasm during oral sex. Sometimes, quite frankly, I can't. And after a few earth shattering minutes of concentrated pleasure, my brain kicks in and says things like ""god, he's probably getting tired of this and if I can't come, he'll be so disappointed"" or ""I'm sure his mouth is worn out, I should stop him"" or ""god this feels god, but I feel so bad getting all the pleasure and I'm probably being really selfish to let him keep doing this."" That last one is my most common problem. After all (unless I'm in a 69 which is a whole other issue I'll get to shortly), the whole bit of business happening in the bed or couch or table (lucky girl!) is all about me. He's giving, and I'm taking. And I'm just not used to that. Sex, in my mind, is supposed to be about mutual pleasure, a give and take, a two orgasm ride, so the whole I'm the only one feeling really fucking great thing is hard. +But here's what I've learned, and it's a very new lesson I still sometimes forget: some men (I can't speak for all, but I can speak for the ones I know who love to give head) get really turned on by giving their girl pleasure. I know I get pretty damned turned on when I've got a cock in my mouth and a man purring in happiness in my bed, so obviously the same can be true in reverse. My current (and last, if I'm lucky!) partner gets more turned on by how I taste and smell than by almost anything else, and I'm learning to let him enjoy me while I enjoy what he's doing to me. If he gets tired or his mouth is worn out or he's ready for some of his own pleasure, he knows how to stop. Nothing says I have to come from every oral sex adventure (or from every sexual adventure either), so why not lay back and enjoy it without worrying about the destination? One of the keys to this, of course, is communication. If you have trouble climaxing during oral sex, tell your partner, ""Honey, it feels really amazing when you go down on me, and I hope you keep doing it whenever you want to, but I might not come. In fact, sometimes it feels so good I can't come. And that's totally okay with me."" +I'm still working on getting over my, somewhat related, hang-ups about frequency- why is that I feel guilty if he goes down on me three, four, or five days in a row? Shouldn't I, instead, feel blessed? I say I should, and so should you. Relax, enjoy, trust your partner. And yes, again I know it's not that easy. Even for me, the girl telling you to do it. But again, your partner is a big boy. He's capable (hopefully!) of expressing what he does and doesn't want. So if he heads south on a regular basis on his own volition, let go of your worries and let yourself bliss. +Which brings me to my last big oral hang-up, and I'll admit right now that I'm not over it. At least, not totally, though I'm working on it in the most enjoyable ways. The whole sitting on his face thing (why, oh why, does it have to be called that!). 69s, too. Anything where I might, as I fear, suffocate him. Granted, this hasn't happened. Also true is the fact that my partner is bigger than me, so could easily push me aside and catch his breath, if needed. But it's a worry, and it has long prevented me from engaging in any kind of me on top oral sex. I've found, though, that it's very fun (for us both) when I kneel over his face and tease him by touching myself, just out of his reach. This tease inevitably leads to his mouth on me, which leads to me, well, sitting on his face, for lack of a better description. And if I can do that, why not flip around and 69, so that he can get some pleasure, too. It's a fun ride, if you can get to it. Again, I suggest that you don't focus on your orgasms (or his), and you trust your partner to be honest about his comfort. You can, and should, talk about it before hand, especially if you have hang ups like mine, so that you know that he'll speak up if need be. Trusting your partner and then allowing yourself to enjoy the sensations for their own sake will make for a damned good time. I still ask my SO afterwards if I suffocated him (an obviously dumb question to ask a living and breathing person), but each time he smiles and assures me that not only did he not suffocate, but he had a damned good time. +I think, for me, that's what the whole oral sex thing (as well as every other kind of sex, come to think of it) comes down to: relax and enjoy. Don't search for an orgasm, don't over-analyze, don't bring guilt or fear into it. Relax and allow yourself to feel that tongue on you, to feel the suction or the nibble or the licking or the combination of all three. And then, enjoy. How can you not? +That's not to say that oral sex is for everyone. It's not. If you don't like it, don't do it. Don't feel obligated to give or to receive. But if you're holding back because you worry that it's gross or wrong or selfish, get the fuck over it. It's none of those things. If you're clean (and by clean I mean you shower- please don't use feminine hygiene products because they can make you ripe for vaginal health problems) and healthy (those vaginal health problems can create odd tastes or smells), then you're good to go. And good to enjoy! Another related concern is the whole hair issue, a topic I addressed in my first essay and a topic pretty much everyone has an opinion on. As I've gotten older, I'm firmly in the trimmed category. Shaving wasn't a comfortable solution for me despite my thoughts in Guide #1. Some swear by it, and that's fine; some want to let things grow as they will, and that's fine, too. It's all about your comfort; obviously, your partner may have a preference, but ultimately it's your body, and you're the one who needs to be comfortable in your skin (and in your hair!), so decide what you like and go with it. From all of the many, many emails I've gotten since my first piece, I can tell you that just as many people like shaved woman as don't like them. ( I can also tell you that a man who loves women and their nether regions is seldom all that picky when faced with a willing woman with open legs!) +So, girls, relax, please. Trust yourself. Trust your partner. And stop taking sex so seriously- enjoy it! It's fun! All you need is a little bush confidence....

He needs to be able to relax and enjoy himself, you need to be relaxed enough to focus on his cock. I normally find kneeling between his legs while he sits on a comfortable chair, or kneeling on the bed between his outstretched legs as he lays back work best for us, but experiment with different positions till you find one that suits. You might find that him standing, you kneeling at his feet exciting, something kind of slutty about kneeling at a guys feet and sucking his cock while he stands above you; be careful though as he has to not quite let go, not totally relax, or he will fall, probably taking a fist full of hair with him as he goes! +Anticipation is a good place to start, if he knows it is coming it builds the excitement more. Look into his eyes and kiss gently down his body, let your fingers trail over his body, resist the urge to go straight for his dick though, if he is laying below you as you move down his body let your nipples brush against him, not only will this feel great to you but for him also. As your chest reaches his cock press down slightly letting him sit between your breasts as you suck and kiss his belly. This will drive him wild. +As you lower yourself further lick up the stem of his cock with your tongue, base to tip without touching it with your hands. Do this slowly and as you get to the tip look him in the eye. If he is looking at you this will intensify the situation, bringing the two of you closer together, if he is looking elsewhere, the ceiling perhaps, or has his eyes closed it will give you a sense of how much he is enjoying it. +Lift his cock into an upright position, with your hand and slowly bring your hand up and down, after a few strokes place the head in your mouth. Make sure before doing this your mouth is good and wet. Slowly run your tongue around the head of his cock while holding it in your lips and holding the base with one hand. Do a couple of circuits before gently sucking, again just on the head. Slowly increase the level of 'suck' you are using, until you are sucking reasonably hard, but keep your hand still and do not go lower then the head. Then return to the circling motion. The sudden change between hard sucking and gentle liking will not only surprise him but also increase the sensation. +At this point I normally like to see just how much length I can get in my mouth. I open my mouth wide and swallow as much as I can, making sure my tongue is out of the way and my lips are sealed tight around the shaft. My hand doesn't move until I start to come back up again, slowly, and at this point it comes up with me. Another couple of slow, long sucks up and down with the hand following my mouth and his cock is normally nice and lubricated. +Now I like to alternate, not spending too long doing one thing or another, the element of surprise is fantastic and each time you go from gently running your tongue around the head to swallowing him whole his body will respond. It is great to hear your man groaning from the pleasure you are giving him and you should be able to tell when he is getting close to cuming, and return to the gentle licking to keep him there at the edge. +Try to look up at him every so often, I have been told that makes him feel more in control and he likes to see that I am enjoying myself. In reality he is not in control I am and we both know it really. I can make him cum at any time I want to, and he knows if I decide to do it he can't do anything but lay back and ride the wave. +Once you have him at the brink you can either stop, continuing with something else, or you can make him cum. If you choose to make him cum you both need to know what is going to happen at the point he does. Are you going to take it in your mouth? Or are you going to let him cum all up his chest, in your face, or across your tits? If everyone knows what is going to happen no one gets a surprise and everyone can relax and enjoy the experience. +Take his well lubricated cock in your hand and move your hand up and down before sinking your mouth over the head and once again taking him as deep as you can. Then moving your mouth and hand simultaneously gently increase the pressure and speed with each thrust. You may find he either voluntarily or involuntarily starts to meet you with thrusts of his own, go with it, but keep increasing the suction and the speed. +If you intend to take his cum in your mouth and swallow, (the polite thing to do, although not for everyone), try to make sure the head of his cock is as far back on your tongue as you can get it. There are fewer taste buds at the back and therefore you are less likely to be put off by the taste. Make sure you leave his cock in your mouth until he has finished, continue moving your head and hand as you swallow and follow his lead. He will relax when it is over and you can slowly let him withdraw. Make sure you do this slowly; a sudden retraction can spoil the moment, do it slowly while looking him in the eye then slowly move back up his body. Let him recuperate, and then claim your reward!" +233,Giving and Taking Lit. Feedback,sr71plt,How To,2014-03-07,2014-03-07,2022-01-04 08:28:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/giving-and-taking-lit-feedback,Advice tidbits on giving/ taking Literotica writing advice.,"['Feedback', 'How To', 'Literotica Feedback', 'Story Comments', 'Story Feedback', 'Writing', 'Writing Advice']",4.69,"In all likelihood most authors posting stories to Literotica are seeking connection and approval from readers here—and there's nothing wrong about that. And a good many are also interested in receiving help in developing their writing style and the popularity of their stories. There's nothing about that either. There also are readers willing to help authors develop their story skills and even some able to do so. +That established, Literotica makes feedback giving and taking possible, but Literotica is not a critique site; it's basically a reading site. Literotica makes it possible for authors not to entertain unsolicited feedback. Readers aren't leaned on to provide feedback and authors have no responsibility to accept or respond to feedback. Many writers are posting stories here for the sheer fun of sharing erotic writings with others and have no interest in developing skills. That said, feedback can be very useful in helping a writer to develop her/his skills. The kickers are to discern what feedback is useful and accurate and not to lose one's voice or ownership of the story in the process of adjusting to feedback. +Feedback does aid the author. It helps the author read her/his own work more effectively. It looks at the work from a fresh angle without the preconceived notions behind what the author actually wrote, which may be quite different from what he/she thought was being written and conveyed. +The problem with treating Literotica as a critique site, however, is the anonymous nature—even when account names are used—of gauging what feedback is constructive and useful and what is personal and/or informed opinion of a limited number of writers. Advice is only as valuable as the experience and ability of the one giving advice to be giving advice on that topic. Thus, a reader giving advice needs to be careful to make clear that they are only giving a personal opinion—based on just one perspective out of a huge number or readers on Literotica—or they need to substantiate somehow their ability to give writing advice. This can be established by citing authoritative sources and/or establishing a track record of giving useful advice on the forum or directly as a comment on specific stories. + _Giving Feedback on Literotica_ +Perhaps the first consideration one preparing to give feedback on a Literotica story should cover is what the motivation is for giving the feedback. Are you truly interested in helping the author and are clear that you have the grounding to help the author, or are you giving feedback to show what you know—or think you know—about the issues covered, or worse, to feel superior or to belittle the author? +Remember that it's a reading site, not an announced critique site. You can't assume that the author is seeking help with story writing unless help has been requested (in notes attached to the story or in the forum Story Feedback area). Authors who have contributed stories on Literotica for a free read have a right not to be hassled by vigilante critique, whether or not they have used the ""feedback not wanted"" mechanisms Literotica offers. Even if you see something in a story that you know is inaccurate or a technical mistake, you should weigh how important this is in the context of the overall story. If you don't receive thanks or you get your hand bitten in either of these instances, you shouldn't be surprised; being willing to be thus accosted was in no way a condition of posting stories on Literotica. +Supposing we've established that you are giving feedback with all good intentions of helping the author develop writing and storytelling skills, above all, remember that the story isn't _your baby_. Your feedback should be based on what the author is trying to do in her/his voice and writing style. Feedback should be careful to preserve the voice and intent of the author. The product of the author's intuition can be queried in terms of what he/she intended, but when suggestions start on how the commenter would do it, the feedback has gone beyond respecting the author's product. Your feedback should be about the author's work, not you. The feedback should truly be interested in the aims of the author in the work or you should be questioning your intent in commenting. +The best feedback highlights issues that pop out as questionable or disturbing the reading or the flow during the reader's experience of the work. Be specific with the points of your critique. Show specifically what you think the technical mistakes are and, if the context breaks down for you, where it breaks down. Don't make detailed suggestions on how to fix contextual breaks, though. Don't advise ""Your character should do/say this rather than that."" Note what you don't understand and why. Don't take the author out of the judgment seat on what, if anything, to do to adjust the work. Literotica doesn't take the author out of the judgment seat. The author is the last one holding the story file before it is submitted (even if it's edited), and the author is the only one who can make corrections to the story. +Don't go beyond your knowledge base on technical issues. If you question spelling, use a dictionary. If you question grammar and punctuation, use authorities on these. If you aren't sure but you see something questionable, marking a ""is this right?"" is constructive for the author and not raising the danger that the author was right and you are wrong. +Don't give advice on what is commercial fiction on the basis of having taken high school or college English. These courses teach a different brand of writing. Be aware of how commercial fiction is written before giving advice on it. You can gain experience in this by reading a lot of it with an observant eye and/or experiencing writing it yourself. As an untrained reader, you can still give useful feedback, though, just by noting where the story broke down for you and leaving it to the author to decide what to do with it/whether to do anything (e.g., ""In this scene, at this point, when the character does or says this, I stop believing in him. It readers to me as out of character or out of context of the story""). +Yes, point out any inconsistencies, discrepancies of fact, or anachronism you find (or think you've found). The most creative way of giving this feedback is not to say, ""This is wrong; it should be X."" It is to question whether what's written is correct, citing what you think is correct. This is fiction, however, so be prepared to find that the author is using literary license. We all known there are no Burger Kings on Mars (at least yet), but if the author wants to place one there for the story context, that's the author's literary license to take. +Don't expect the author to justify what she/he has written to you. It's not your story, and you should expect no more than a thank you for your help—and not even that if you are giving unsolicited advice (and, no, failure to turn comments and voting off does not constitute soliciting critique). Exit any blow-back argument as quickly and totally as you can. If they don't take your advice, they are the ones who will suffer any negative consequences. If you want to argue a point in feedback, this may say more about your needs than those of the author. +Be sensitive to the system the author writes in. Literotica publishes stories from all major English-language systems (and some stories in other languages as well). There are variations between UK and U.S. styles in spelling, word usage, and punctuation. And Canadian, Australian, and Indian writers use a variant of both styles. + _Taking Feedback on Literotica_ +Where do you draw the line on other people having input on your art? For starters in the Literotica system, if you truly want feedback critique, directly ask for it—in a note on the story itself, by posting to the Story Feedback forum, or by directly messaging another author whose work you admire. As Literotica is set up, it is not an assumption for either you or readers to make that feedback is being solicited just by posting a story. If you expect it, ask for it. If you haven't asked for it and a reader doesn't like the response or lack of response to feedback they have given, that is their problem, not yours. +Appoint yourself master of your story's vision. Look for feedback that supports your vision for the story. Nobody but you is going to be held responsible for it. Don't change anything solely to curry favor of a few vocal readers or out of lack of belief in your own instincts. Doing this for any length of time will completely strip you of your writing ""personality"" and your stories will sink into a glop of same-same stories. +Take charge of discerning what input actually advances your work. And _you_ have to discern this, because if you change to satisfy everyone's opinion on what you should have written, you will wind up with weak pabulum. Remain aware that the one giving you feedback may not be any more knowledgeable about writing erotica or the base of ""facts"" you've used in your story than you are. Be aware further that just because one or a couple of readers have commented on a point and others haven't doesn't mean that they are any more right or representative of the mythical ""Literotica reader"" than anyone else. +Beware of feedback that tells you how the commenter would write it—the reader who wants your work to read like his/hers or to cater to his/her specific tastes. Don't lose your voice, your own vocabulary, or how your stories revolve. Readers who become invested in your characters or stories often will ask you for more or something different or a more romantic ending. This is a compliment, but it's not necessarily an indication that more or different would be better than where and how you ended it. The end of every story is death of all the characters. Good stories don't have to travel to that point, and few of them do. +Don't argue with the one providing feedback. Thank them for their effort and then decide for yourself where or if their advice fits. +The challenge after good feedback is given (assuming you've become adept at identifying ""good"" feedback) is figuring out how (or even if) to solve the problems you accept as having been raised by the critique. And that challenge is the author's responsibility to meet, not the one who gave the feedback. I raise the question of whether to mess with the story at all after posted to Literotica, because conceiving and writing stories is a renewable resource, this isn't the _New Yorker_ , and you aren't being graded or considered for employment on the basis of the entire body of your work. Sometimes feedback tells you that it's just best to take the advice as it would affect future stories you write and then move on to writing the next one. Writing is an activity that can be enhanced by doing more of it. +Assess to the extent you can the ability of the feedback giver to provide feedback. That's hard to do on a story site of unidentifiable posters like Literotica is. But you can check whether the feedback they are giving others makes good sense to you, and you can check to see if they have written and published themselves in the genre you are writing—or at all. Unfortunately feedback on Literotica is a prime example of those who ""haven't done"" getting their jollies by telling others what they should (or must or must only) ""do."" +Be aware that different English-language styles are being used in the story file. Literotica itself uses U.S. style, but it accepts UK style and systems that are a variation of the two (i.e., Canadian, Australian, and Indian). If you write in UK style and feedback points to spelling ""colour"" as ""color"" and ""favour"" as ""favor,"" be aware that last least some of the disconnect is the different styles being used. + _Bottom Line_ +Like all advice on Literotica, what you have just read should have your own sense of common sense applied to it. Take what you find useful and leave the rest until and unless you decide it is useful too. The bottom line is that it's your story; any credit or complaint on it is yours to shoulder. At the same time, it's your creation. Don't lose ownership; don't let someone else make it theirs. And don't trust your creation to just anyone who comments on it just because they tacitly suggest they know more about writing and/or are more talented at it." +234,Giving Good Head,dillythemonkey,How To,2007-12-22,2007-12-22,2022-01-04 08:28:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/giving-good-head-1,A few tips from a true cock lover.,"['Blowjob', 'Blowjob Advice', 'Blowjob How-To', 'Give Head', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Oral Sex How-To', 'Self-Help', 'Sex Advice']",4.47,"**Giving Good Head, or How I Learn To Stop Worrying And Love The Cock.** +I love cock. I just do. To me, there is nothing more exciting then making out a bit and suddenly feeling something hot and hard pressed against you. I love unzipping jeans and letting the monster spring up. I love touch, playing, poking, pulling, stroking, and most of all blowing a good hard cock. The following is just a short list of tips and tricks to try to get you to love cock like me. +Warming Up +When was the last time you gave your man the pleasure of head? Men go nuts love a good blow job for obvious reasons but there are things going on. Women are viewed as hard to make orgasm, men easy. A good man is thinking too much about making his partner happy first and puts himself second. Sometimes you just have to pamper him and make him feel special to show how much you love him. Sometimes you can throw him on the bed and do whatever you want with him to get out your frustrations. +Beat your man to the punch. Ask to give him head before he ever suggests it. Most head starts with a hand job, or a good rubbing while making out. My favorite time to give he is first thing in the morning. My man loves when I wake him up by blowing him, but always ask! The best time is just before he's falling asleep so he can dream all night about it and wake up to the reality of it. +Another great way to start it is to lick two fingers and rub him with the wetness. Even better is if you're wet, slip a finger or two in and rub that wetness on him. Cocks love four things: warm, tight, soft, and most of all wet. +Whether you're kneeling, laying down, sitting down or leaving over with him, you can always just lean over and kiss his cock. Soft little pecks on the head, on the shaft, on his balls, on his thigh. Nothing is more fun then giving his cock a little kiss and then pausing, waiting for him to beg me with his eyes just to keep going. +Getting to Work +There is no wrong way to give head. Trust me. Just think about what you like. Generally I start slowly, lightly. I kiss. I lick. I stroke. I gently wrap my lips around or stroke him across mine. Wet is very good, though I'm not a fan of spiting or just plan drooling, a wet mouth is usually enough to get him slick. When he's good and slick you can move fast on him, but wait, tease, drag it out. +Don't ever forget his balls. Some might think they look a bit odd, feel strange but give them a good squeeze while you pump your mouth up and down on him. Lick them or best of all, suck on them. It will make him crazy. Other great spots to concentrate on are the sides of the shaft near the base, just behind the head, and the outer edge of the head. +Don't be afraid of using a bit of teeth. I know they always say don't, but trust me. Ever so lightly run them down the sides of his shaft. Rub them over his little veins and bumps. It the change in texture that he'll enjoy as long as you are careful not to bite. +The best thing you can possibly do is look him in the eyes as you blow him. Most men are visual. That why they love porn. Smile for him. Lick your lips. If you've got long hair, throw it around. Whisper to him. Good eye contact will tell you what he really likes. Maybe you can even let him take a few pictures while you go down on him to save the image. +New Things to Try +A ""True"" Blow Job: Lick you man slick and wet all over. now pretend that your blowing on a candle, enough to make it flicker but not got out. Its a cool blast that will make him tingle. +Lip Smacking: Put as much of him in your mouth as is comfortable. Suck on him as hard as she can and slowly pull up. When you get to just his head, suck hard as you can and then pull off completely. Most men love the sound of the wet pop as much as the feeling. +A ""Hummer"": As you pump or bob your head on him, hum or moan. Do this especially load when he's filling your mouth. If you get a strong even sound you can feel like a vibrator. +The Slap: Some guys just go crazy for a slap across you tongue. The sound, the feeling can be amazing change. Ask first, or simply do this very lightly. Or even better, let him slap you with it. +Finish Him +Watch your man to know when he's close to cumming. Some men will want to get in a hand in to finish, don't be offended. Also, if he close, just keep up exactly what your doing. If you change angles of speeds it may feel to different and set him back a bit. Encourage him to tell you what he's going through. +A great way to get good speed is to wrap one hand a bit tight around the base of him, and just bucking hard on the rest. That allows you to cover his cock completely without having to deep throat. If you have problems taking him all in, like his PA tickles your throat like my man, just go slow and don't worry about gagging. It will happen, just pull off and collect yourself and try again. If it's too much take a break or let him play with you for a bit. +I'm a girl not only swallows but loves a good cum all over. If you don't like to swallow, let him cum on your neck or chest. It's a naughty secret to share between the two of you and will drive him nuts. +Remember to just have fun. Play.

I reply to Feedback!_ +* +You would think that, as a straight woman, I would have the least experience in going down on women on the site, and that may be true. I have gone down on a few in the course of group sex, but I am not really attracted to the cunt at all. What gives me authority to write this essay is my experience both in going down and in being gone down on. +I have had my share of men. Some might say I have had more than my share. If you talk to some of my relatives, more than my share came at about two, which I hit at an age which we are not supposed to talk about on Literotica, but it was less than eighteen. I can't say that I have enjoyed every guy I have been with, since I started out with teenagers who had less than no clue what was going on, but all in all sex has been a very pleasurable experience for me. Why else would I do it so much? +Oral sex is a little different story. I have had some REALLY bad oral sex experiences. Bad to the point where I had to say ""okay, you are done."" I am sure that none of the men (or women, let's be equal opportunity here) on this site are that bad, but I thought that I ought to give some pointers just so that we could avoid further mishaps. +Okay, first, you don't just hit your knees and start with the oral sex. Start with the kissing and the feeling her up and the sucking her breasts . . . all this is terribly erotic and lets her know you are not just interested in her pussy. Kiss the neck and the stomach and act like she is the prettiest girl you have ever seen, because, just for tonight, she is. Make her feel like she is, and she will take YOU over the moon. +So now you have her naked and spread before you and you are ready to eat her out. Who came up with that stupid term? If you dive in and start munching away at her clit it will be over before it has begun. +Likewise, if you use too much delicacy, she will be asleep by the time you are through. Here is a step by step walk through of what to do. +Take a deep breath, open your eyes, and let it out. The breath on her pussy actually feels good. No fear. Her pussy is a beautiful thing. Kiss her thighs, and lick and kiss her pussy lips. They are very sensitive, and she will get very aroused. +Now. Part the flesh of her pussy and take a good look at where everything is. Every girl is different, so take a second to appreciate THIS one before you dive in and eat her. +Now. You see the pearly bud toward the top of her slit? That is her clitoris. NO. Don't go munching on it like a piece of pie. That would be painful and never bring her to orgasm. +Some talk about doing the ABC's on the clit (or around it), and that is actually a very good technique, but the key is to mix things up. At first the key is to work your way around the clit, only lightly touching it until it is fully aroused. Then, as she becomes more aroused, you will want to apply more firm pressure, and more direct pressure to it. When she comes the first time, assuming she is multi orgasmic, you will move on to other kinds of stimulation. +This lesson is about the tongue, but the hands also help with cunnilingus. If you stuff your fingers up her and they are dirty and have hangnails, they can breed infection, however. If you want to finger her, take care to wash your hands and cut off any rough spots or hang nails that might scratch her. Start with one finger. Add a second, and, if you feel the need, a third. Crook your fingers a little bit in a ""come hither"" kind of action toward her belly button to try to catch her G-Spot. It really does exist, but every girl is shaped differently and each one is going to be placed in a little different place. You will know when you have found it, because it is a little bit different in texture-- spongy, or soft. Manipulating the G-spot can cause different reactions in different women. Some scream, some relax. Some even squirt! To all of them it should be pleasurable, especially during cunnilingus. +While you give her the finger play, you can start really sucking on her clit. It should be fully erect by now, and the sucking action should really be incredible. While you suck, run your tongue over it in a flicking motion. +I do not suggest the use of teeth unless you really know what you are doing, as biting too hard can really cause a lot of pain (just like your cock-- do you really want an amateur putting her teeth on your family jewels?). However, judicious use of teeth on her clit can send her to the moon and over, if you are gentle and do it sparingly. +If you choose to tongue fuck her at this point, you are probably going to be one very tired boy. However, it is up to you. +Be aware that, no matter how long your tongue is it is not a cock, so should not be used as such. Your goal here is to give her the maximum sensation around the vaginal opening, which you will best do if you move your tongue in circles. Your nose will probably press against her clit, bringing her more pleasure, and she will be grateful for the attention. +As for ass play, it is up to you entirely. Personally, I love it. Having my ass tongued is incredibly erotic, and I have been known to cum from that alone. +Again, concentrate on your strength, which will be the anal opening. +Now for the coupe de grace. The best thing you can do for your girl, assuming she is into it, of course, is to finger her in both the ass and the pussy while sucking on her clit. Make sure she is okay with it and that you lube her ass properly, of course, but let me tell you the sensation is out of this world. +Give her this and she will fuck your brains out, gentlemen. +You still doubt me?

Getting great at it does take time. +One of my first girl friends, a red head, loved getting stimulated orgasms and or oral and was my real teacher, she was verbal and told me what to do and not to do which made me excellent at giving orgasms by finger or eating pussy, both I loved equally. Doing that all the time, made it second nature, I could always tell when they were going to hit their peak, sometimes I would drag it out to make it even better. They would beg me to fuck them as they couldn't stand my tongue teasing them, but having them cum by tongue was so much better than by cock as you can see and feel the cum, the hot cum running down your tongue and they are ever so grateful... +I recently had the experience of giving a double orgasm to my wife. We really haven't had much sex since being married, 10 years. Early on, my large cock injured her by tearing her, but she didn't tell me for a long time. She just didn't have the lubrication needed I guess. She went to the doctor, got estrogen and we bought KY lube which is great, very slippery and she would let me finger fuck her with sometimes two fingers, but I could always lick her clit and she always got to cum. +One day after reading articles about women's orgasms, I stopped in a Spencer's Gifts in the mall (they have a huge selection and you can buy discreetly online). I bought her a 6.25"" G spot vibrator, not knowing if I could talk her into using it or not, but after some coaching, she agreed. She already had a small electric vibrator for her clit, like the size of the tip of your finger, but it worked and fast. +So we get out the KY, put some on my hand so I can finger fuck her and get her warmed up. My wife is very pretty, has nice sized tits, don't hang, just a nice handful, very skinny butt and legs, light colored pussy hair and not a lot, makes it nice when eating her out which she loves and I always get her to cum. +We start with me finger fucking her with my middle finger, then as she gets wetter, I put middle finger and ring finger in and literally fuck her with them in and out, she loves it. +I hit her G spot regularly. After about 10 minutes of that, I pull my fingers out slowly and so gently slide in the vibrator. A little at a time, not turning it on just yet. Finally I have most of it in her and turn it on low, she jumps, more shocked than anything, but says it feels weird but great, so I'm sliding it in and out of her with ease as it has lots of lube, so it's just a natural feeling. She says it feels like a cock, smaller, but too hard to be a cock. She then gets her electric vibrator and starts on her clit. If she just used the electric for the clit, it takes her no time to cum and cum she does, you can watch the liquid cumming out of her when she cums and it's so warm, it's really hot to watch. +So we're using both vibrators one on her clit, the other inside of her on a low vibrate mode, slowing pulling it in and out just like a cock would do. You can see on her face and in her voice that she's getting ready to cum, she wants me to do the dildo faster and turn up the vibrator, when I do, OMG she about comes off the bed with excitement. We're going strong in and out and her electric clit vibrator, then it happens, she cums so hard, she is actually squirting cum which she never did before and she's almost screaming as she cumming. I'd never seen anyone cum that hard and pleasurable before, she was like cumming in waves, over and over, I thought she might pass out, but it eventually slowed down, she said that she had 5 or 6 full blown double orgasms like she had never had before. She wanted more, but had to rest first and actually fell asleep. +When she woke up, she remembered that nothing happened to me, she wanted me to lube her hand up again, I did and then she started playing with my full blown 7.5"" cock cut, rubbing my balls, and jacking me off, first the full length, then just the head with two fingers and her thumb. Wow, she had never done that before, just with the two fingers and thumb. OMG I was going to cum, I came, one of the best hand or finger jobs I ever had and I was happy with that, didn't need to fuck or get blown. She was going to town pulling on it and boy did I cum, all over me, her hand, seemed like I'd been saving a years worth for that moment, I think the best hand/finger job ever, didn't think I'd stop, was the longest cum ever and oh so good!

We really don't need to know that anything is broken, or that one of the kids was bad and needs to be talked too. Oh no. We need attention, devotion, a lot of leg and something suggestive worn. We men, that is, real men, want a Sunday school teacher for a wife; one who, at the moment your car pulls into the driveway, turns into a $5,000.00 a night hooker, who was paid in advance for taking you to the moon and back. +Real men want to be touched, grabbed, kissed with lust, stroked, teased and more. We want it all. They want their pants taken off for them, kisses down their chest, kisses to their little king (your Love Toy) and then, without any thought about it, a real life attempt at being fully engulfed during your gagging effort of deep-throating him until he pulses his way out. Stand up, offer him your lips, a few more kisses, then raise your top up and offer him your sweet breasts. Take one of his hands and push it down into your loose fitting pants, to your smoothly attended, clean, and trimmed source of 200 thoughts a day. Real men are simple. It is the lap dogs who are too complex. They live and die, having never figured it out. +Keep life simple. I'll trade you two bummers that I have to handle for one deep throat. It's the only thing we need; and I do mean need. So, here is the inside edition: Keep him happy and he'll keep you happy. It's yin and yang, give and take; it is the trade off for a loving, giving relationship. Giving; that is the secret to love, true love, and adoration galore. The secret to life, is love; the secret to love, is giving. +Fact is, many people never get it. I'm not talking the sex, but there are a ton of them that don't get that either. They never get that this world is made up of givers and takers. The simple truth is; we all want lots of things but, do we deserve any of it? So, pay attention because here is the message: The only reason to come home is you. You being a nasty-ass whore, who loves to dress up for us in little, skimpy, lacy outfits that allow easy, focused and attentive touches, strokes, and kisses that all become part of the whole picture; a picture of love that a man can focus on each and every day. +So, some of you are probably saying; ""I know! But I don't like the way I look, so dressing in skimpy, naughty attire doesn't look good on me."" Or, possibly; ""I am up tight. I can't do that."" That is the giving part of true love. You use it or you lose it. If your guy buys you skimpy attire that he wants to see you in, go for it! What do you have to lose? Read stories to turn you on! If you have fantasies, share them with him! Give him a chance to give back to you! +I was married once. I found my true love only after I left my ex. One day, I found all the naughty attire I had bought for her, in a bag, going to the Goodwill. ""What?"" I thought to myself, ""Am I not worthy of being dressed up for? You don't care what I like? You don't care to please me? You no longer like having earth shattering orgasms?"" I took that as a sign; a pretty big sign. This was a sign that did not include my dreams, my wishes, aspirations or my needs. If he buys you naughty little outfits, scanty frilled sexy clothes to wear; wear them! He loves you, he loves your body, and he wants to please you! Let him, but fill his tank once in a while! +My ex used to say to me; ""Why don't you hold my hand like he's holding hers?"" I would say, ""Because she swallows."" I mean, here I am, addicted to your scent, your taste and your body and why? I eat your pussy and you come three or more times. Then, I give you three, four, five or more orgasms after I enter you. Hell, I'd stick my tongue up your butt every damn day, if you'd just want me a little. +Well, she is alone now and I have found my own true love. I mean, when my love and I had this talk about how to make life grand, she had an epiphany! Not that I didn't know she had it inside, part of her being all along, because I did. It's just that, until we sat down and wrote out our ""charter,"" so to speak, she didn't know she means everything to me and always will. I told her, but sometimes, in some people, it registers but for others, they don't get it, they never get it. +Giving without expectations is the secret to love; if it's not one hundred percent all of the time, it's nothing. Anything less than giving everything to your love is, quite frankly, nothing, void of worth. True love means giving everything. I see it as if both people in a real life, true love relationships have to be wired to give without expectations. +Hold up a minute. This may be the best definition of love to date. ""Giving without expectations."" Wherever and whenever the need is, later tonight, at this moment, or even tomorrow, the way that will give them the deepest, most gut wrenching orgasm possible and doing what it is exactly they are asking for; all the right pressure, on the right spot, it's perfect. It opens up the communication into a very hard to ever obtain openness that makes all following conversations just about 200% easier for both of you. +If you cannot talk, have fun, laugh out loud, cry, lose control, knowing what pleases you, all while pleasuring your partner the way they want to be pleased, then it's not true love; it can't be, by definition. It is a settlement, an acceptance of limitations, a trade off that will never quite catch-up to or mends the hurt and suffering of his and your own ""something is missing"" body, mind and spirit. +So, in conclusion, giving without expectations is the secret to love and love is the secret to life. I hope that is easy enough to understand, because with the divorce rate at what it is, and rising, is giving what your true love needs too much to ask for? Think about being that perfect woman to him and for him, because without you, he wouldn't be there. +You can do it. You can be his Sunday school teacher who transforms; see if your life changes for the better.

It may be in a state of complete chaos and you're wondering how things ever got so out of control...but the important thing is that you've taken that first step and decided to shave. +You should gather everything you'll need in the bathroom (generally the best place to do this task) so you don't need to stop in the middle of the process to fetch something. I will be focusing on shaving with a personal razor (non- electric) and shaving cream for the majority of this article. I personally use the Gillette Venus Vibrance and find it leaves a very smooth shave. If you want to save a few bucks on razor blades, you don't need to buy their special Vibrance blades because they are no different than the original Venus ones aside from coloring (but don't tell Gillette I told you that!). +Now it's time to get down to business. One of the first things you will want to do is trim down your pubic hair with a pair of clean scissors or an electric razor. (If you've shaved before and your pubic hair isn't very long, you can skip this first step and just start with the main event.) You want your scissors or razor to be clean so you don't cause yourself any unnecessary risks of infection. When you shave, it is likely that tiny nicks will develop (some of them so tiny you won't even see them) and if you're using scissors you were just using to prune flowers in your garden or an electric razor you used on your dog, your chances of a bacterial infection are certainly going to be elevated. +""Trim down"" means what it sounds like. The goal is not to remove all your pubic hair in this step but to thin the trees back so you can get an effective shave with your razor later on. Otherwise you will end up cleaning your razor many, many times to keep the blade exposed and may end up snagging hairs which is never pleasant. You may want to do the trimming over the toilet bowl or in your shower, but you will certainly want to collect the hair you trim off somehow. If you are planning to be waxed instead of shaving, your pubic hair should be around one quarter of an inch long but no shorter than one eighth of an inch. +If you haven't done so already, why not check out your hair situation now in the mirror and see how things are going? You may find that after a trim, you have reached a pubic hair length which you are comfortable with. It's your hair and if you're not ready to go completely bare yet, there's no pressure. But if you are ready to go on, so am I. +It's now time to get wet and lather up. I prefer to shave in the shower after I've washed my hair because it gives the skin a bit of time to warm up and lets the steam of the warm shower soften the skin. You could also take a bath first but should shave at the end when you are ready to drain the water. I also usually put one leg up on the side of the bathtub or on a stool or step in the shower so I have better access to everything. +Cover your pubic hair with shaving oil, jelly or lather to form a layer of lubrication between your skin and the razor. I like to use shaving oil and jelly because I can feel the razor sliding over the skin smoothly, without leaving cuts and knicks. If you are desperate, hair conditioner can also be used but for best results I'd only use it in a real emergenc +You may also want to give some consideration to the type of shaving matter you use and what skin types it is recommended for. My favorite products are Venereous Shaving Oil and Venereous Shaving Jelly from Newf Brand. You can use them together, the jelly layered over the oil, or you can use each of them separately. Using them together just gives you an extra layer of shaving protection against knicks and leaves the skin extra moisturized. Plus neither of these products foam so you can actually see what you're shaving which is very useful. Some shaving gels have mint and other ingredients in them which may not be suitable for the sensitive skin in your nether regions. I have not had any adverse reactions using men's shaving gel versus women's but I generally select a product for sensitive skin. Some women's shaving gels state on the label that they are recommended to be used in the bikini zone and generally have a more feminine scent to them. +I usually cover the entire area I am going to shave at the beginning so I don't need to set the razor down constantly and fiddle with the container of shaving gel. You can always go back and add more shaving oil later, but be careful with some gels and creams because if you leave leave them on too long, you may start to notice a burning sensation on your skin. If that occurs, wash the lather off immediately and give your skin a few moments to recuperate. If you have another shaving lather, you may want to use it for the rest of the process and I would recommend not using the shaving lather which burns you again in the future for this sensitive area. +Now you're ready to put the blade to your skin. Don't be scared. If you've shaved your legs before, you know that it can take a little time before you are fully comfortable with all the contours of your body. Shaving your mound is no different and each one varies so you may find that these steps don't work perfectly for you or that a different order is a bit better. I'm just speaking from my personal shaving experience over the last 8 years. +Start with the top of your mound, use one hand to gently pull back the skin so it is tight and, with the razor in the other hand, shave down with the hair growth. I like to start on the sides near the crease of my legs and then work towards the center. After I've shaved most of my mound against the hair growth, I then shave against the growth and sometimes from side to side. In some areas of the body, such as the armpits, hair grows in multiple directions and to get a very close shave, you need to shave in each direction of growth to get every hair at its base. But when first starting out this can increase your chances of razor burn in the end so be sure that you have plenty of lather covering your mound while doing this. Run your fingers over your mound and if it's smooth, you're ready to go on. +The lips can be a bit trickier although the outer labia should be similar to shaving your mound. Shaving against the hair growth usually gets most of the hairs although you may have to retrace your stroke one or twice to catch any strays. Try not to go over the skin too many times, though, as this also might cause irritation later on. If you feel the need to shave with the hair growth, be careful because you may end up nicking yourself which is quite uncomfortable. +To shave inside your labia, use your free hand to gently roll the lips open and carefully pull the razor up along the edge of your lip and around the upper ridge to get those little hairs which will really agitate your partner during oral sex if they are missed. +At this stage, you are more or less finished. You may want to reach back and give your anus a quick once over just to be thorough. This is where a second set of hands would come in very handy. In fact, you may want someone to assist you during this entire process but try not to get too carried away or you may end up with a lot more cuts than you expected. +Once you get out of the shower or the tub, you may want to use a moisturizer such as Venereous Mountain Mist to help prevent irritated skin and razor burn. Try to avoid excessively touching the area for a few hours as that may also cause irritated skin. +If you decide you love the feeling of your smoothly shaven mound, maintaining this style is simple. You will probably only want to shave every few days at first until your skin gets used to this constant new attention. If you do decide to start shaving daily right from the start, your skin may be more sensitive and irritated for the first few days that you continue this process. But as it adjusts, any discomfort and elevated levels of irritation usually subside. +Although shaving your muff can be a bit tricky and it does take a bit of getting used to, most women love the results - and so do their partners! If you're doing this just for someone else, don't forget to let them know that you did go to some trouble and would really appreciate if they went out of their way to clear the forest too (if they aren't already)!" +239,Golden Grenades,Badlands1,How To,2020-11-07,2020-11-07,2022-01-04 08:29:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/golden-grenades,Savvy salacity.,"['Colorado', 'How-To', 'Hugh Mungus', 'Humor', 'Satire', 'Swinger', 'Swingers', 'Swinging']",1.78,"Golden Grenades: +Definition: ""Piss-filled water bottles you find on the sidewalks of shitty neighborhoods."" +Golden grenades are ubiquitous in Vegas, where I currently reside. +Ego. +Following your virginity, it should be the second thing to go.

That's because it was. +If I'd been a fucktard, however — like so many out there — I would've envisioned myself ""too good"" for the BBW in question. I was thin, and she wasn't.

Should her neighbors be gaping through the peephole, they receive an offering not available on NetFlix. +Backing Courtney into the murky apartment, I close the door behind me, aware the main course awaits somewhere deeper in this hazmat hellhole that reeks of puke. +Inside, the only ambient lighting is the blue glow emanating from a TV. +Her breath stinking of latent vomit, I stuff my tongue down the chubette's throat. She's obviously gone 10 rounds with her liver, having purged at least once. +Because I'm a sick fuck, my horse cock threatens to tear through the front of my sweatpants, as we stumble further into the entrails of perdition. +Against the hardwood floor, I slip in something buttery and crunchy, before regaining my balance. +""Is Heather here?"" I query, breathing profoundly. +Before my friend can answer, we breach an archway to the left, exposing the entertainment room of the dwelling. +Atop a blow-up mattress, a Rubenesque Latina reclines nude, fingers up her hole, a bottle of cupcake-flavored vodka pressed against her lips. +From a CD player draining squirt, what sounds like the late Stephen Hawking sucking sweaty scrotum loops continuously. +Pulling her tongue from my throat, Courtney motions to her friend — also a plumper. ""Hugh, this isss H— Hhheather."" +Formalities mauled by a bulldozer, I motion to this second sylph's slit, ""Would you like a hand with that?"" +Nodding, the sloshed señorita sucks from her bottle, the way an infant would a nipple. +Spitting on my thumb, I reach down, and massage her clam hat, as she continues excavating. +From a TV on its side, Gordon Ramsay microwaves his cock, in a furious attempt to prove he can make anything taste better than what some traumatized chef is serving. +Adjacent Heather, a bloody dildo rests atop the mattress. +Beyond a bay window in the background, snow falls, creating the idyllic holiday setting. +Slapping a hand over her mouth, Courtney races to the bathroom, her cheeks expanding like a blowfish. Amid the darkened confines of the lavatory, she regurgitates. +From some undisclosed source, Perry Como croons It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Crotch Rot, his asshole closing tightly around corporate cock. +Stripping off my shirt, and abandoning my pants, I revel in the romance, as I dangle my dick in front of Heather's face. +Dropping the bottle to the mattress, the salacious señora sucks more than the thought of four more years with a president — any president. +Bending, I manhandle her massive tits — the areolae of which are roughly the size, and coloration, of pumpernickel bagels. +Sliding her to the periphery of the box spring, I begin feasting on the scrambled eggs between her legs, as Courtney heaves in the bathroom behind me. +It was a Christmas card come to life. +Affixing a penis parka, I stand, and penetrate. +""Fuck!"" Heather breaths, wincing, as she tenses. +The 750 ml bottle steadily draining beside her head, the room begins to stink of sickly-sweet fermentation, as the sugary hooch spills forth. +White knucklin' the edge of the bed, the woman blasts out a load that makes the steaming pile government serves up every September 11th, seem trivial. Hunks of what appear to be cubed ham escape her throat, as she sloppily swipes a palm over her maw, rolls off the mattress, and crawls to the bathroom. +Just in time, Courtney returns — ramen embedded in her hair — as she drags herself atop the bed. ""Fug me,"" she rolls on her back, as I change condoms, and Heather now barfs in the shadows behind me. +Andy Williams takes it up the ass from the corporatocracy, as he informs us It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year. +Adding sausage to my friend's tuna pot pie, I replay a scenario similar to that which probably caused the stereo to be covered in groin goo. +Discovering the used bottle of flavored vodka to her right, Courtney refuels, as I drop to my knees, and voraciously devour pelvic burrito. +On the tube, Gordon Ramsay mauls some actor in a chef's hat with a beef log, while Anthony Sullivan learns firsthand what Rupert Murdoch's cock tastes like. +One more blast, and my pal's liver is again at full capacity, as she bowls off the bed, and back into the bathroom. +As though they'd timed it, Heather returns. Covered in mascara — to the point she looks like she spent the day at Midas, learning how to perform oil changes — she climbs on the bed for Round Two. +We go at it. +And so the evening continues, until both women suffer cirrhosis, passing out somewhere between the toilet and Hades. +Either way, they get off, and I leave this system in the dust for a couple hours. +This system that informs me it's necessary to celebrate the birth of a provably fake god, by pretending to believe in a fat guy, flown around in a sled by eight flightless animals. +This system that attempts to indoctrinate me bigger girls — like Courtney and Heather — are ""undesirable,"" and no fun. +This system that renders people homeless, forcing them to piss in bottles on the streets, thereby creating Golden Grenades, like the one I pass moments before writing this article. +Upon oozing from my friend's disheveled digs, and disappearing into the night, I praise myself for telling this system to, ""Fuck off!""

Though you may disagree with my ideas, or may not even feel you need my advice, here it is anyway… I simply feel the need to say it, and this is as good of a place as any. +1\. A good pet should always go the extra mile, if she wants something done, do it well or even far better than she expected you too, the pleased look on her face should be enough reward for any pet. This goes for everything from chores she wishes you to do, to sexual acts. Every time mistress wishes you to please her, do it with all your conviction. +2\. Learn to Desire her pleasure, learn to -enjoy- making her orgasm even if you’re getting no such treatment yourself. A truly amazing pet is the one that could get off simply by hearing his mistress moan with the pleasure he is giving her… but a good pet would never orgasm without his mistress’ expressed permission of course. +3\. Deny her no power, if you aren’t 100% certain you are allowed to do something, then ask mistress politely for permission to do it. She holds your leash, and expects that you wont do anything she doesn’t want you to do. Remember that if mistress doesn’t want you to do something, she has her reasons, and they are good enough for any pet. +4\. Learn to enjoy a little pain… as we all make mistakes, sooner or later mistress will have need to punish you, but she will be more pleased if you take your punishment well rather than sobbing like a pansy. Often times handling a “fun” punishment badly can earn a pet a night spent alone on the cold floor, untouched and ignored… which is far worse than any physical pain mistress would willingly inflict. +5\. Be open to all kinds of experiences, this may be the second most important. Your mistress likely has diverse sexual desires that you shouldn’t hinder, don’t be afraid to try new things with her, or let her do anything she wants to you… after all, you belong to her, your body is hers to use as she pleases. Remember that as a pet there is no such thing as taboo if it’s what mistress wants… if you find yourself shocked or appalled by any of your mistress’ desires… then perhaps you should -not- be a pet. +6\. Make sure that in your mind, her needs are always first. It does not matter that you need something right now, if mistress asked you to do something else. Most mistresses will allow their pets plenty of free time, and other social interactions, jobs or school, which means that the pets needs are served thoroughly as well… but never mistake that as anything more than her being generous, not something to be abused, it’s part of her showing how much she loves you. +7\. Have good control of yourself and great willpower, only very few mistresses would allow their pets to orgasm at their own leisure, and to most it would be a grievous insult to them to orgasm without their permission. You are her toy to tease and torment as she wants, for her own pleasure, and when you are a good pet…then she may allow you pleasure of your own beyond that gained simply from serving her. +8\. Be open to sudden change… many evenings mistress may not want a pet… she may simply want her lover, or maybe even reverse roles entirely so she can be submissive herself for a while. Though this may be difficult sometime for a good pet who is so used to being subservient to her, but a pet should be able to do it without question, after all, it’s still giving her what she needs, putting her first in a round about way. +9\. Finally, Always, always make sure your mistress knows just how much you love her. She is very special, and needs to be reminded of that as much as possible, you are her loyal pet, and will never leave her side, never hurt her, never let her down. This is the most important part of being a pet, beyond all else, good or naughty… it’s the loving pet who is kept for eternity. +Good luck in serving your own mistress if you have been claimed, if you haven’t, and you’ve ever felt the desire to be a submissive, find someone that will collar you, it’s a hell of an experience." +241,Good Sex during Covid Lockdown Ch. 01,Max64Scotland,How To,2021-02-03,2021-02-03,2022-01-04 08:29:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/good-sex-during-covid-lockdown-ch-01,A short guide for singles on enjoying sex.,"['Coronavirus', 'Covid-19', 'Masturbation', 'Pandemic', 'Prostate', 'Prostate Massager', 'Safe Sex', 'Sex Toys', 'Tantra']",3.4,"How can singles still enjoy good sex in the middle of this pandemic lockdown? Should we just resign ourselves to a life of chastity and boredom until things finally get back to normal? +I really hate this fucking pandemic for so many reasons. Basically, lockdown means no hookups, no meetups, no sex. Where is the fun in that? +Ok, there are some people who are still going out, breaking lockdown and meeting partners for sex and fun. But with so many deaths and so much suffering caused by this terrible Covid virus, there are very good reasons to follow the public health advice of staying at home and protecting yourself and others. And of course, wear a mask! +Despite all this, sex can still happen during a pandemic. Like most people, I have spent much of my life having sex on my own - that is, the 'self love' of masturbation - even when I have been in a married relationship(s). Of course, now that I am a single man, this is even more vital to my wellbeing. For those who are locked down with a sexual partner, then sex with another person is obviously possible. But even for people like me - and probably many of the readers on this site - full on sex of some kind would be nice. +In this first of a two part blog, I'll talk about some of the things we all can do to keep enjoying our sexuality even in the middle of this grim pandemic. +But I still decided to join a sex dating site during this pandemic, because sexual connection is about more than just quickies and hookups. When I first started looking I thought (perhaps naively) that the world would be safer by now, that I would be meeting people for possible hook ups and fucking at some point as the new year of 2021 began to get going. Of course, I didn't get that right. +And so, with the current lockdown in place for several more weeks at least, what can we do? How can we singles have some fun in these desperate times? Either we break the lockdown, meet up with others anyway, and risk further spreading the already out-of-control virus, or we find a more at home and online based way to make new sexual connections. If we assume that the lockdown won't last too long, I think we can still enjoy the next few months alone and connected online. We can cum together safely if we look for ways to enjoy this new way of doing sex in the era of Covid. +First of all, most men need to learn what many women have known for a long time already. That is, sex is something to enjoy and savour, to take time over and find new ways of bringing the body pleasure. Despite my age, I am amazed at how little I've been taught as a man to reach the sweet spots of my body - that so much of what has been taught to me about sex focuses on the very small region around my cock and balls. And that in large part, having sex has been about becoming hard, stroking and using that hard cock, and then using up that hardness by cumming. I don't think I'm unusual in this, that most men see doing sex as a very enjoyable but limited activity of becoming aroused, enjoying that arousal, and then enjoying a good climax. If they're lucky then they can eventually rinse and repeat. +I have wished for a long time to have a sexuality that is more like a woman's, more subtle and long lasting. The ability to climax several times, that builds up and does not simply explode. But I live in a man's body and was taught for too long to use it as a man. +And then, quite recently, I finally laid claim to my prostate, and the glorious 'a-spot'. I will write more about this another time, but if anyone is interested then Ruby Ryder runs free webinars on this (around the end goal of 'pegging'). But I have found - with the help of a beautiful 'prostate massager' - that the placing of a toy within me eroticises and pleasures my life in ways I had never imagined possible (I have it in as I'm writing this, I often wear it when I'm out, such as when I'm shopping - it's delicious!). I have not yet found the 'whole body orgasm' (the 'big O') that cums without any stimulation of the cock - but I have cum close. And when I have stroked and masturbated my cock alongside this prostate stimulation, the experiencing of cumming has been exquisitely powerful. If you're in a man's body, then if you've never tried it then you simply don't know what you're missing. You might perhaps think you're 'not into that kind of stuff'. That's bollocks, so think again - somewhere there is a prostate massager that has been made specially for you and your pleasure! +My second discovery is also mind blowing and sublime. This is the world of tantra - in particular 'urban tantra' - a recent set of approaches that mix together ancient Indian tantric practices with contemporary western kinks. Again I am starting off on this path, and have only dabbled my feet (or chakras) in the waters of this powerful delight. +Tantra is in short a way of understanding your body - male bodies and female bodies - which sees sex as not genital and related to nerve endings and fluids. Instead sex is energy, that flows powerfully through the universe and through our bodies. When we see sex as predominantly about what we do with cocks, pussies, asses, balls, and clits then we misunderstand completely how that energy can leave us with powerful, unforgettable orgasms throughout the rest of our bodies. And that if we learn how you direct and control that sexual energy through breathing exercises - akin perhaps to mindful meditation - then it is possible to cum simply through breathing. Although I am quite a novice of this at the moment, I have been amazed by the experience of this - imagine cumming that goes through every part of the body, not simply the area around the cock. +The tantra author Barbara Carrellas suggests that everyone should find 20 minutes every day to develop and work on this energy, to help it flow through the body and charge up our sexuality. This may involve breathing exercises, physical exercises, or of course simply enjoying masturbating and cumming every day. Imagine someone telling you to make sure you wank every day? Perhaps that's your guilty pleasure anyway (I think on most days I try to do so). I've even be told that it's even better to masturbate and cum once every day before sleeping and also again every morning (putting my morning wood to good use!). In a flexible work day routine of lockdown this is a little bit easier to achieve, most if not all of the time. But the simple advice - from your friendly (non-medical) doctor is that a daily wank is very good for you - physically, mentally, and spiritually. So no excuses and no guilt! +But all this so far is self pleasure. What about the joy of sex together - those sensual experiences that we cannot have alone? Sex on our own is definitely fun and fulfilling, but it doesn't have that pleasure of touch, taste, and smell of really good sex with a partner. I miss that so much, but I also do not want to spread the virus. +In the second part of this blog I'll talk about online sex, and connecting with a partner for safe fun and 'socially distanced' sex during the Covid pandemic." +242,Grammatical Erotica Pt. 01-02,Sappholovers,How To,2004-04-17,2004-04-17,2022-01-04 08:29:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/grammatical-erotica-pt-01-02,Styles of writing/styles of making love.,"['Feel Sexual', 'Fingers Inside', 'Inside Pussy', 'Language', 'Love', 'Sentence', 'Sexual Pleasure', 'Thing Life', 'Times Places', 'Wonderful Thing']",4.52,"**Grammatical Erotica, Part I.** +Styles for writing erotica should vary just as our lovemaking should vary. +There should many times and places for hot, quick, fast, intense sex: Take me hard in the morning, half-asleep, balls squeezed, lips on cock, your pussy moist from your own pleasuring, then mount me quick, and fuck me fast and furious, Hendrix riffing on the guitar. +But there should also be many times and places for our love supreme: the languorous, luxurious lovemaking that begins early in the evening with a man looking a woman in the eye and listening to her attentively through a beautiful dinner, then a concert featuring Rodrigo's ""Concierto De Aranjuez,"" then a slow removal of clothes in the bedroom by a fire, sipping champagne or wine, maybe a bath together by candlelight/ +Then like a long sentence, with many twists and turns, the man's tongue travels all along the contours and curves of her body, stopping in a few places, one nipple and then the other, for a bit of punctuation, a semicolon of a suckle, and then a parenthetical expression (a finger or two slipped inside the pussy), then bodies kneaded by slow hands of massage, the woman softened and pulled apart, loins open, the man fully risen, and then all the lovemaking comes to a brief stop, a colon, for a change of position: two bodies sinuously entangled in 69, lost in pleasuring each other, like a reader caught up in a sentence by William Faulkner or Henry James. +Then the lovemaking becomes all Hemingway: No flowery prose. Just hard pounding sentences. One after the other. Fast strokes of the pen. Action verbs. Prose stripped naked. Nothing cute. Sentences pounded out on the typewriter like fucking a woman doggie style. Drive each sentence home. Get to the point. Make her quiver. Fuck her with exclamation points!!! You've got her panting now. Short breaths. Shorter words. Do it to me. More. Don't stop. Yes. Yes. Yes. Ohh. Oh! O!!!. +The question is: What works the best for the most enjoyable reading experience? + **Grammatical Erotica, Part 2** +Here, let me offer three basic points of advice for invigorating prose--a triple dose of verbal Viagra, if you will: +1\. Become master of five forms of punctuation: the semicolon, the colon, the parentheses, the dash, and the ellipsis. +The comma is to punctuation what the missionary position is to sex: It's basic, common, necessary, and overused. Although the English language offers far fewer possibilities for punctuation than the Kama Sutra does for sex, a mastery of four ""positions""--the dash, the colon, the semicolon, and the parentheses--can do wonders for variety in prose. +The semicolon is like changing positions during sex; it provides for some change in direction, or a shift but without loss of continuity; for instance, we start out with cowgirl, and then shift to reverse cowgirl. (I was tempted to use an exclamation mark at the end of this last sentence, but the exclamation mark--despite its wonderfully phallic shape (!)--is my least favorite form of punctuation. The exclamation marks annoys me as much as underlining. It is like the way Oliver Stone uses music in his movies: he pounds the point into you, bludgeoning your ear, when something less loud, less insistent would be more effective.) (By the way, isn't it fun, when going down on a woman, to use all five fingers at the same time? It's almost as much fun just as trying to use my five favorite forms of punctuation in the same paragraph: the colon, the semicolon, the parentheses, the dash, and the ellipsis) (I particularly like inserting erotic bits in parenthetical comments.) The colon is neat: It grabs your attention for what follows. Here the shift is not from one position to another, but, say, from vaginal to anal intercourse: You need to be careful, however, not to overuse the colon or insert one more than once in the same sentence: Otherwise it gets too confusing for the reader. +I do like to think of punctuation as road signals for the reader, or musical directions for rhythm and tempo; they indicate when to take a quarter note rest (a comma) or a half note rest (a semicolon). My favorite mark of punctuation is the dash--it's like inserting fingers inside a pussy during cunnilingus: it adds some verve--indeed intensity--to a sentence. You can, like Faulkner, circle around and around with long sentences, sentences that just go on and on, as if you are writing them on a hot, lazy summer day in Mississippi, and you are writing as if to capture the rhythms of oral speech or tale telling in your prose, but the reader feels you don't know how to unfold the point and proceed more sharply, so then you need something quicker and faster--the dash--to speed things up (and, with some more vivacity, you can insert--for more enjoyment--at least two dashes, maybe even three or four, to a sentence, like adding, for tartness, wide cut lemon slices to a glass of lemonade). (Right now, I want to open you--unfold you--tongue you--and wiggle two...three...four fingers inside of you.) +Now the ellipsis is like wonderful lingerie.....breathtaking and suggestive. Better yet, the ellipsis is like when you are fooling around in bed in a hotel and the housekeeper knocks and then she enters...everything just stops, for a bit...or it should stop...but, with passionate, uninhibited lovers, it's just a comma of a pause, a suspended moment, as they are cool, natural, unashamed, and, if interrupted, they just wrap each other up in their arms, smile...and then continue. Or, to try another metaphor, an ellipsis is like when you move from kissing and sucking nipples in foreplay to lower down.....in a series of short, quick kisses..... from bosom to belly button.....a rapid line of kisses....that stops when you are all the way down there........between and below. +2\. To write sexy, potent, thong-dropping prose, deploy strong verbs. +At a moment of passion, the writer of limp prose declares, ""Sexual pleasure is the most wonderful thing in life."" It's true, but the phrasing is pathetic: The writer turns to the weakest of verbs, ""is,"" to make this declaration. He's got to pump up his prose at this point."" ""To be"" verbs just deflate a sentence. It would be ok to use ""is"" in a sentence to make a more tepid point. For instance, ""Like masturbation, reading 'The New York Review of Books' is a wonderful pleasure."" But to use ""is"" in a sentence where you are describing the wonderful pleasures of sex conveys all the enthusiasm for sex that a married couple might summon up as they are about to make love on Saturday night from 11:20--11:35 pm after 20 years of marriage. +The only way I would allow a writer to get by using ""is"" in such a sentence about sex is if the writer declared, ""Sex is fucking great. Nothing beats it. Not even reading The New York Review of Books naked in a bath by candlelight."" A writer needs to insert some added emphasis--some vibration, if you will-- into a sentence if he is going to use ""is"": For example, ""I feel that sexual pleasure, heightened by eroticism or love, is the most wonderful thing in life...."" Or he could be at once more romantic and more eloquent and more humorous if he wrote, ""I feel that sexual pleasure surpasses all other wonders of life; yet too often we let opportunity for this joy pass us by, constrained as we are by a host of social conventions (particularly marriage)."" +Here's another phrase that needs some verbal Viagra: ""My desire is to have sex with you tonight,"" say, ""I want to make you sweat,"" or, more concise, ""I want to fuck you,"" or, be more suggestive, ""I want to make love to you all night long."" The best choice of words depends, very much, on the audience and the occasion, so that there are certainly times when ""My desire is to make love to you"" is the appropriate phrase, but other times, when the straight, bold, emphatic ""Take me"" (or ""Fuck me"") works best, and, yes, at times, you can and should be wordy, so that to get the point across repetition or verbosity is not a bad idea, as in, ""Fuck me. Fuck me. Fuck me....yes, Yes. YES."" +3\. To allure in prose, create original metaphors, as metaphor is to literal language what eroticism is to sex. +Literal language is naked, plain, stripped down, functional. Metaphorical language is nude: it's alluring, sensual, charged, electric--it's lovemaking as ecstatic union. Metaphorical language is bliss: it's bringing together differences; it's uniting opposites; it's the tongues of lovers twisting and twirling together; it's arranging the shape and sound of words in unusual but smooth and alluring ways, a linguistic 69. Plain language is routine, missionary. Metaphorical language is language at play. Metaphor renders words unchaste, promiscuous. They lose their bond to an old relationship. They assume new meanings, new relationships, new associations. Language has its rules of grammar and syntax. But the best writers become grammar breakers and dictionary defiers: they free words from their traditional meanings. So instead of telling someone ""love is great,"" you write (as I steal from Katrina and the Waves), ""Love is like walking on sunshine."" But if you want to write a story for Literotica that gets more than a 3, you need a storyline that is more complex than something found in most 3 minute pop songs. So keynote could be: ""Love is not just like walking on sunshine; it can be like walking on broken glass [Annie Lennox]; it can be a battlefield (Pat Benatar)."" +Of course, when it comes to the language of lovemaking, the best dirty talk is wordless, but not soundless, or as wordless and soundful as orchestral music or the non-verbal grunting of rap music or the scat singing of jazz music. So let us write to make words pierce us and curl up inside, and let us write, and let us make love, to take us beyond the limits of language, so that our words give way to the eloquent silence of eyes locking on to each other and hearts beating in unison (and everything curling up inside us right down to the toes, that wonderful little exclamation mark of sexual ecstasy). We must write for readers who use their spine....who read for the moments of bliss, of pleasure in the text, when language becomes charged up, special, unique, explosive-- when you feel the words first in your spine, as if the spine is the wick of a candle, drawing up the wax, and your head the flame." +243,Great Anal,Always_loopy,How To,2008-05-01,2008-05-01,2022-01-04 08:29:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/great-anal,One woman's experience.,"['Anal How-To', 'Anal Sex Advice', 'Butt Plug', 'Sex Advice']",4.37,"Anal sex is one of those things that in general men love, and women put up with, but that isn't always the case. Sometimes if you're just in the mood it can be incredibly pleasurable and oh so naughty. It seems that more often than not it is the discomfort factor that puts most women off anal sex. A lot of this is caused by either lack of knowledge, or not taking enough time over it. You see women in porn films taking a huge cock straight into their ass without any sort of preparation....trust me, it doesn't happen like that. I need at least twenty minuets of foreplay and a lot of lube before I feel ready to take a cock in my ass. It did take me a while to be able to truly enjoy anal, without feeling too much discomfort, but it's definitely worth taking some time to go used to. +The key is to take it slow, and have some good toys to start off with. If your lady is willing and relaxed then you shouldn't have too many problems. Make sure the room is warm and comfortable and you have plenty of lube to hand. In my experience, the best position to start off in is on your back, with your legs up and spread as wide as you can. It also seems to help if you're propped up on some pillows. I like to start with a toy of some sort, a small butt plug or dildo makes it easier as you have more control. Just take it nice and slow, stopping at any discomfort, then proceeding slowly. Some women like to have their clits played with, sometimes I love this, and other times I'd rather just focus on what I'm doing. Personally I like to start out playing with the butt plug myself, my boyfriend just watching. I find it easier knowing I'm in complete control and that I can stop at anytime. Make sure you have the butt plug well lubed, and just move it gently, a little deeper each time. It will get to a point where you almost have the whole butt plug in, and the widest point is stretching you open, this is when it can be easy to get a bit worried as it can become a little uncomfortable. Either stop for a little while before continuing, or just hold it and you'll feel it starting to pull in of its own accord. Don't panic and try to pull it out, just relax and once it slips right in it feels a lot better. By this point you feel really full and it makes me oh so horny. I frequently can't resist sucking my boyfriends cock at this point, getting him really hard for what's to come next. +Once I feel comfortable and ready, I find that the best position for anal penetration is to have the man lying on his back and the woman on top, facing him. Many women will probably disagree with me, but it seems to work for me. Just going slowly, I am in total control in this position. On my knees I position his cock head against my ass and push gently until it slides in, covered in plenty of lube of course. Since I've already been playing with the butt plug I usually have no problems taking most of his length quite quickly. Being in this position means that not only am I in charge, but the angle in perfect to take my boyfriend as deep as possible. +Pushing deeper now, but feeling only a little pain thanks to the toys earlier, I take him half way in. You could always go back to the toys if you don't feel ready to take him deeper, or let him play with his fingers. Usually I start bouncing slowly on his cock, which always drives him insane and feels pretty damn good to me too. I tend to start playing with myself at this point and as I do I start to take him deeper, reapplying lube as needed. Still moving up and down on his cock he starts to get incredibly hard and I find it hard to stop him thrusting back into me, which can cause some pain if you're not expecting it. I generally put one hand on his chest to hold him back until I feel ready to take him all the way. So slowly I sink all the way down onto his cock and just hold it there until I become accustomed to it. By this point he's going totally insane and any hope I had of hold him back is gone, my pussy is drench and I can't hold back either. Playing with myself, he is now holding my hips and thrusting deep into my ass, where he shoots his load as I start to cum oh so hard.

Now, role-playing and cybersex are not one and the same. Sexual situations are very often depicted in role-playing but that is not the only type of scene that can be taking place. Some people have storylines that can last for years, with the characters growing up, going to college, falling in love and the whole nine yards. Some are just quick flashes, single scenes where two characters just happen to meet for a brief time. Most seem to fall somewhere in the middle. +There really are no set rules for role-playing, but here are a few simple guidelines that can make it a better experience both for yourself and for the people you come across while trying to find a writing partner. As with most rules there are always loopholes and exceptions and each person is free to find them out for themselves. +Rule Number One: Know your character well. +For some people this would go without saying. If you are going to be playing a certain persona, you should know that persona backwards and forwards. Yet every day, it seems like people come across players who are - well, wishy- washy for lack of a better term. I know a lot of people in real life like to switch things up, and there's nothing wrong with that. However when a character goes from being a very confident, proud straight man to a completely withdrawn gay one within the matter of minutes? Then the person behind the character needs to go back and figure out exactly what it is he or she is intending to portray. +Rule Number Two: Be careful whom you are playing with. +As far as this goes, there is only so much you can do. A major double-edged sword of the Internet is the fact that you cannot be sure who is on the other side of the computer. For role-play, this is a great thing but it can also be a curse, especially when sexual situations come into play. There really is no way to guarantee the other player is above the age of eighteen without requiring some form of identification, which quickly takes all of the fun out of the game. Remaining anonymous is one of the greatest parts of playing, which leads me to rule number three. +Rule Number Three: Remain in character as much as possible. +Humans seem to have this desperate desire to get to know one another. Even when behind the mask of a character, sometimes it's easy to want to know the person behind the character on the other side. And depending on the situation, this isn't always a terrible thing. I personally have gotten to know some incredible people from role-playing games (also known as RPGs) that I have been a part of over the years. I have also gotten incredibly burned and jaded when the person behind the character I've played opposite turns out to be the world's biggest asshole, thus ruining my good perspective I had on their character. The bad can easily outweigh the good so for safety's sake, it's best to try to stay in your character's head as much as possible. Some out of character (OOC) discussion is unavoidable, especially when it comes to storylines of a more sinister or serious nature. Just use good judgment. +Rule Number Four: Make sure that all parties are in agreement. +This is where the time to talk OOC comes into play. Really, all these rules go together more often than not. If you're looking for a storyline that requires the other player to be a certain way, make sure that they know what it is you're looking for and that they also would like to be that character. There is nothing worse than finding someone who wants to create a scene with you, only to find out that these characters could never find a level playing ground if they were real-life human beings. Some people really get off on doing things controversial - rape, incest, et cetera. Some just really like fetishes. Some aren't interested in playing scenes of a sexual nature at all. (If you're on this forum and you're thinking about joining this realm of writing, those might be the ones to avoid. Then again, they might not!) If one person doesn't mesh well with you, try again! There are thousands upon thousands of role-players on the Internet, and there are many different ways to get in contact with them. +Rule Number Five: Be true to yourself. +Don't let someone push you into a storyline or situation you are not comfortable with. Again, this goes back to Rule Number Four. There is no point in forcing yourself to play a certain storyline or character just because you do not feel that you can say no. If you are looking to expand your horizons and try something that is a little out of your comfort zone, that is one thing. If you are completely against something and yet feel pressured to put your character in a situation where they would play a way different from how you see them in your head, that is another. The other person can find someone else more willing and you will be free to find another role-player who will blend well with you as well. +Role-playing is one of the most fun forms of writing that I personally have ever come across. I truly believe that is has made me a better writer overall and has allowed me to find new things that I may want to write out in the future. If you have any questions or would like some ideas of where to go, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me and I will do my best to help you find somewhere that is right for you." +245,A Guide to Constructive Criticism,joshy029,How To,2013-04-10,2013-04-10,2022-01-04 08:25:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-guide-to-constructive-criticism-1,A handy guide to good criticism.,"['Constructive Criticism', 'Criticism', 'Guide', 'Information']",4.55,"I know how very few people comment, much less provide criticism on stories online. Giving criticism, however, easy for the reader and helpful to the author. +This guide isn't just for stories, I've found it useful in almost anything I've ever read, watched or played. In fact, I've even used it on food. That's just how versatile criticism can be. However, for the purpose of this guide, I'll focus on stories. +Many people reading this might say ""I gave you criticism. I said it was good!"" The problem is, that this is bad criticism. I know, you said it was good, so that's positive, right? Wrong. No matter whether you're giving good or bad criticism, a simple ""good"" or ""bad"" is bad criticism. +Sure, a nice ""This was good"" is a positive comment, but as criticism, it's bad. The point of criticism is to express your opinions in detail. If a story is good or bad, it benefits the author and the readers if you explain how it's good or bad. +For instance, on my most recent story, I received this comment: ""The chapters have gotten too short and sloppy."" Let's break that comment down. +The chapters being too short is the best part of that comment. It explains exactly what's wrong to the author: now I know that for the enjoyment of my readers, it would be a good idea to try and lengthen my story chapters. Maybe not all of them, since the occasional short chapter isn't a bad thing in most people's eyes. Now I know what to do about this aspect of the comment. +The chapters have gotten sloppy. How? I need to know how my writing has gotten sloppy. Give me examples with reasons and explain how it effects the story in your eyes. With that information, I can work on this portion of the comment. I can't do anything unless I know where I've gone wrong. +Now that we've gotten a fairly negative comment broken down, with information on how I can deal with the problem, let's look at positive comments. +Some positive comments, as it stands, aren't meant as criticism. I have had a fair few with simple praise (some of which involve sexual acts the writer of said comment wants to do to me). These comments are fine how they are. What we're looking at is comments like ""This story was great."" +As with the ""sloppy"" part of the negative comment, I need to know how it was good. When writing that kind of comment, it's a good idea to explain how the story made you feel, what it made you think and any other reactions you had that turned it into a positive read. +A better comment would be: ""This was a great story. The description was good and gave me a really clear mental image of what I was reading. The premise was interesting and once it was introduced, it paced the story well. Your story has turned me on and I'd love to read more."" +This is a good comment. Not how it not only explains that it was a good read, but it allows the author to know how they have effected the reader. It allows the reader to know that it made the reader think in an entertaining way about the story's content. Even the part about being turned on is useful to an author: it allows them to know what sort of things are popular in the erotic literature we all love here. +There are also comments that are somewhat ignorant. I have gotten comments, a lot of them, saying that I've spelled a lot wrong. Now, I understand that most readers on this site are used to reading in American English. However, I'm sure that they know that British English (which I write in, being British) exists and would register to them as spelling errors. +Now, this kind of comment isn't so bad. In fact, it's understandable. I know that may people read in a slightly different form of the English language. However, I can easily read novels and short stories that have been written in American English. +I guess that might be easier from me since all mainstream novels and short stories are published in American English, But it'd be nice to not get comments saying ""spelling errors"" when my profile states I'm British and it's widely known that we Brits write in a different format. +I guarantee that if you use constructive criticism right, those authors with potential will only get better and better. It will, as Stated several times, allow them to write much better. +I hope that this has been helpful in writing constructive criticism to authors. I hope you consider using it when you comment on stories around the site, as it'll be a big help to us writers when it comes to writing good, engaging material for all of you. +* + _Thanks for reading this guide and happy commenting._" +246,A Guide to Great Anal Sex,celesteandjim,How To,2011-06-30,2012-10-07,2022-01-04 08:25:04,9,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-guide-to-great-anal-sex-pt-01,1.

Conclusion--Go Pick Apples,"['Anal How-To', 'Anal Sex Advice', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",4.42,"My name is Jim. Celeste, my wife of thirty-two years, and I are almost exclusively ass fuckers. Anal intercourse for us is not a once in a while event, but our preferred method of expressing our deep commitment to and love for each other. This is for a very simple reason. Celeste would openly tell you that the weakest orgasm she experiences when I am in her ass is at least twice as intense as the strongest she has when I am in her vagina. If the purpose of intercourse is pleasure, we seek the greatest pleasure possible. + **I. Introduction and the female anatomy** +With so much misinformation available about anal intercourse, we thought it might be useful to share what we think we know in the hopes that this knowledge will bring the same pleasure to others that it brings us. (I'm writing this so that there will be no confusion about voices, but these lessons are a joint enterprise. The reader will identify easily many of the sections contributed by Celeste). +What follows is not fantasy. There are no sixteen inches penises involved nor women ejaculating across rooms. It is a factual, practical guide, underwritten by the following caveats: +1) This is Celeste and my reality. We have been in a monogamous, and extremely happy, sexual relationship for the entirety of our married life. Your reality may well be different and that may change your experiences. +2) Great sex depends upon both partners being within their comfort zones. If you are uncomfortable with the concept of anal intercourse for any reason- philosophical, religious, or physical-no amount of knowledge is going to bring you pleasure. Don't waste your time reading what follows if this is the case. +3) Neither Celeste nor I are doctors. However, the intensity of the orgasms Celeste experiences during anal intercourse suggest that any woman with either heart or blood pressure issues should consult her physician before experimenting with anything that follows. +4) Never, ever, ever move anything--toy, finger, tongue, or penis—from a woman's anus to her vagina. You're just asking the trouble: STDs and the like. +5) Just to get the subject of elimination out of the way, one obviously doesn't engage in anal intercourse when a bowel movement is impending or your intestines are upset. That aside, elimination isn't an issue. As for cleanliness, a bidet is perfect, but a soapy finger and a detachable shower head work just fine. +THE FEMALE ANATOMY +The key to great anal sex is knowledge of the complex female anatomy involved. This includes 1) the clitoris; 2) the g-spot and 3) the inner and outer sphincters of the anus. +Women and men know where the pea-shaped protrusion of the clitoris is located and that its stimulation leads to orgasms. What is less well known is that 85% of the clitoris lies under the skin. It has been described as shaped like the wishbone of a turkey (what you used to dry out after Thanksgiving dinner and then snap with a sibling, the holder of the longer piece getting his or her wish) or a horseshoe. The arms of the clitoris arc around the walls of the vagina and curve back toward the anus. A woman can experience swelling, non- orgasmic pleasure simply by having lubricated fingers, hers or yours, gently rub the walls of the vagina, not touching the hood. (Celeste insists that this is the point to say something about fingers. Ladies: if you want to size up a potential lover, forget his butt, eyes, or any fantasy you may have about his penis. Instead, look at his hands; they're a major clue as to how considerate a lover he will be. Neatly trimmed and filed nails may not be a sure sign of a great performer in bed, but rough, dirty, or unclipped nails scream ""stay away."" Fingers are very important to anal sex and there should be no rough edges to their nails.) +The g-spot is more controversial; some doubt its actual existence. Celeste and I both think she has one, located about two inches into the vagina on the front wall. It is a small, spongy area, the stimulation of which heightens her pleasure. Constant direct pressure on it, combined with clitoral stimulation, can lead to her ejaculating. +Finally, it is critical to understand the sphincters, a pair of muscles lying just inside the anal opening. The human body contains more than fifty pairs of these. One set, for example, make it impossible to breathe and swallow at the same and another how we blink our eyes. Although it is no more alluring than the image of a wishbone, think of the anal sphincters as two miniature rubber bands lying one atop the other. The critical piece of knowledge is that the outer sphincter is a voluntary muscle. Both men and women can control it by simple contractions. It is the inner sphincter that causes problems, and pain, because it is an involuntary muscle that has to be trained to relax. (Much more on this in a subsequent lesson). The furrow between the outer and inner sphincter is also important. Its stimulation seems to produce significant quantities of oxytocins in Celeste, a chemical release that heightens feelings of relaxation and well-being in the brain. +Great orgasms for Celeste result from the simultaneous stimulation of 1) the head of her clitoris, 2) the end tips of her clitoris located near the anus, 3) her g-spot, and 4) the furrow between her inner and outer sphincter. The most intense orgasm she can achieve comes when she lies on her side with her pointer finger pressing against her g-spot while she strokes her clitoris with her thumb and I massage the half of the sphincter furrow closest to her vagina with a well-lubricated (and warmed) pointer finger. This simultaneously stimulates all four key components giving her sexual pleasure that is obviously impossible during vaginal intercourse. After only a brief period, her body almost seems to levitate off the bed, slam down into it as her orgasm occurs (my finger can feel the powerful vaginal contractions that occur) and she screams into her pillow. +Skeptics are invited to try this for themselves, but partners should discuss the intensity of the orgasm that may occur in advance so that there will be no surprises. You should also know that intensity does not equal pleasure. Celeste only occasionally wants me to use my finger. The experience, she says, ""is like being hit with a stun gun."" She much prefers the use of my tongue or penis in her ass. (More on this in another lesson). +Finally, Celeste asks that we include brief mention of what she calls ""the world's best sleeping pill"" here. This consists of my gently massaging of the half of the semi-circle of her sphincter furrow lying furthest from her vagina without any other touching on the part of either of us. That releases oxytocins without sexual arousal. When I do this, I can actually feel her body relax, her muscles unwind, and hear the beginnings of deep rhythmic breathing. If I do it longer enough, she frequently falls sound asleep. Even if you have no interest in anal intercourse, you should try this relaxation exercise. + ** _II.

I will give you indications to look for in the beginning, how to cope during, and how to try to get out of the relationship. I will give examples of what I went through and the good along with the bad that goes with it. I in no way claim to be an expert on this topic, and every situation is different. This is written from my point of view. It is not to be taken as a self help book or a guide as to how to have an affair with a married man. It was written to help me move on and as a hopefully sometime comic release of everything I endured during my relationship with him. I just want it to be enjoyable reading for everyone. +Chapter 1 +How To Spot the Signs +You know a married man is coming on to you if he starts talking to you more. If he smiles at you and takes more interest in you than he did in the past. If he starts touching your arm or back as he talks as if to make a deeper connection with you. +In my case, the real indicater was when he offered to give me a shoulder massage on my front porch and proceeded to also massage my back, my legs and my ass. Then he pressed himself against me to let me feel that he was enjoying it more than I expected him to. To my surprise, as uncomfortable as I was with what he was doing because he was my married next door neighbor, I also was turned on to have another man's hands touching me and obviously wanting me. +Just don't jump to conclusions though, he might just be doing it to get a reaction from you. Don't show any response at first, don't let him know what he was doing got to you. Think it through and then ask him directly before you decide what you want to do. +This might be the hardest decision you will ever make and going on impulse could be your downfall. Ask yourself if you can handle the sneaking around and the guilt. +In my case, I held him off for 2 weeks, allowing him to come to my door begging to be with me. I let him kiss me, which sent an electrical charge through my entire body that I had never felt before and he groped me almost everyday before I gave in to temptation. I decided I could handle a short term occasional fling with him. I figured I could handle the guilt of seeing his wife and talking to her. I stupidly thought that because of the situation there was no chance of getting emotionally involved. +Boy, was I wrong. +Chapter 2 +Starting Up +When starting an affair with a married man, make sure the ground rules are stated outright and followed or problems can occur. This is especially important if the guy lives right next door in a row home situation. +In my case, what started out as short term, occasionally, turned into ongoing and frequent. For 3 months we had sex on the average of 2-3 times a week. +Don't ever underestimate your heart and the possibility of feelings developing for the guy. +In my case, after 3 months I was starting to look forward to seeing him as often as possible. I was disappointed when he didn't have time for me, or when his wife was off work and he couldn't come by. I realized I was getting hooked on him and decided to end the relationship before it got out of hand, or I ended up getting hurt. +Don't think ending a relationship with a guy who is having the best of both worlds is going to be an easy thing to do. Not only is it hard on you but the guy will probably not accept your decision. Be ready for what I call the ""yo- yo"" effect. +Chapter 3 +The Yo-Yo Effect +You finally realize the relationship has to end and you tell him it's over. Don't bet on it. He will beg, cry, tell you everything he thinks you want to hear just to hold on to you. He will keep coming back as often as it takes to break down your defenses and get what he wants from you. +In my case, I tried breaking it off with him over and over again. He'd stay away anywhere from a couple of weeks to several months, then be back at my door begging me to start again. This went on for over 4 years. Each time I'd resolve to keep it ended only to give into him once again. +Don't believe a word he says. The guy will tell you anything to get his way. He will lie straight to your face and make promises he won't keep. +In my case, the guy told me ""I was the best he ever had,"" that ""I was his,"" that ""he cared for me,"" and that ""if his wife ever found out, he would stand up for me."" My all time favorite was the ever popular ""I love you."" He meant none of them. +Don't even convince yourself that the wife won't find out. She will, and if she's right next door, your life will be hell from then on. You better have good self control also, because she will say anything and everything that pops into her mind when she's ripping into you. You better be prepared to act like the better person and not argue back or start a fight. You don't want to end up in jail fighting her over a lying cheater. +Chapter 4 +When The Wife Finds Out +Sooner or later, no matter how careful you are, the wife will find out. Even if she knows he has cheated on her previously with other woman, it's your fault. She will come to your door or call you on the phone and say every nasty thing she can think of to you. +In my case, the wife's favorite thing to call me was ""whore"". She wouldn't come to my door by herself, she made him come too and stand there while she ripped into me. She would threaten me with having my kids taken away. +Don't expect him to stand up for you or defend you. He's too busy trying to figure out how to kiss her ass so she forgives him and doesn't leave him. He may even add a few nasty things to what she is saying just to make her think that you are to blame more than he is. +In my case, he would just stand there like a little puppy with his tail between his legs. The real man he is in bed disappears when he's standing next to her. He acts like a little boy who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. He would follow her cue and say to me whatever she told him to say. He would call me names and state that it was over, as if he was ending it, when he's the one who keeps coming back to me. He would promise her that it wouldn't happen again, only to come back as soon as she cooled down, forgave him, and let her guard down again. +I found that the best way to deal with the situation is to just let her vent and get it out of her system. Don't argue with her, don't let her get to you, don't give her more ammo to use against you. The easiest way to piss her off is to do nothing. If you don't react to what she's saying she's not getting the satisfaction of hurting you, which is what she wants. +Chapter 5 +The ""Don'ts"" Of The Affair +Here are some of the ""don'ts"" that make the affair harder to keep hidden, or harder to live with. These are all examples of things that really happened during the time I was with him. Some were unintentional, some just plain funny, and some just totally stupid. +My ""don'ts"": +1\. Don't let him get control of the relationship, or make all the rules that he expects you to follow. You'll just end up feeling used. +2\. Don't let him know that you developed feelings for him. He'll use your feelings to get you to give in to him everytime you try to end it. +3\. Don't believe everything he tells you. He will say whatever he knows you want to hear just to get your brain to shut down and for you to start listening with your heart so you give in once again. He may even stoop as low as telling you his mother just had an accident and is in the hospital and he needs comforting, when he only wants to lower your defenses so you'll give him sex. I saw her 2 days later looking perfectly healthy. +4\. Don't believe anything he tells you about his wife. He'll make it seem as if she doesn't understand him, how she's cold in bed or doesn't want sex, how she doesn't listen to him. He wants you to feel sorry for him so he once again can get his way with you. He'll even tell you how he enjoys talking to you because you listen to him and don't judge him, that you understand him. He just likes the attention. +5\. Don't spend money on gifts for him or make them from your heart because all he'll do is say he can't take them or he'll give them away, or throw them away so his wife doesn't find them. Or he'll stupidly keep a CD of nude pictures of you that you made for him and his wife will find it. +His ""don'ts"": +1\. Don't try to avoid the neighbors from finding out about the affair or seeing you come to my place by climbing from your front bedroom window, across the porch roof into my bedroom window. That's alot more obvious than walking in my front door. +2\. Don't program my phone number into your cell phone, memorize it. Your wife can't dial it if it's not there. +3\. Don't come by if you get home from work late and your wife will be home in an hour. Nothing will make me feel like an easy piece of meat faster than a 20 minute from the time you get here till the time you walk out the door quickie. +4\. Don't tell lies you're not going to remember telling me. I'm not your wife and I'll remember everything you say to me and I'll catch you in the lie real quick. +5\. Don't ask me to come into your house for sex when your wife is off work but out of the house and you don't know how soon she'll be back. Giving you head with my shirt unzipped in your basement laundry room might be exciting, but hearing your wife walk in the door upstairs and racing for the back basement door while zipping my shirt is not something I want to do more than once. +6\. Don't use the woman's kids to get to her. Dropping off candy, apples, or even turtles you find for her kids is a low way to endear her to you. She'll appreciate the gesture but knows what you're trying to do. +Looking back on most of this I can laugh now. Some of the things hurt me to the core. The promises and the lies hurt the deepest. If I tell you I don't want promises or for you to lie to me, I mean it. When you do make promises and don't follow through it hurts more than if you never said it in the first place. +Chapter 6 +Getting Even With The Wife +Even if the guy is the one who starts the affair and keeps it going, you know the wife has more than enough reason to hate you and say nasty things to you. Sometimes though you just have to do little things to even the score once in awhile. +In my case, it was satisfying to relieve some of the pent up anger at the wife by having hot sex with him in their bed, hopefully leaving wet stains behind. Having sex in as many rooms of their house as he's willing to as if to claim the house as yours, or adding showers with him either before or after sex and using her towels to dry off with. +When you're slightly fed up with him there are ways to get even with him also. +In my case, I would leave notes on his car during the night for him to find when he left for work, sometimes she would see them first and he had to deal with trying not to let her read them. My all time favorite thing to do was when he would leave the room we just had sex in after straightening up the area so she wouldn't notice and I would pull several hairs out of my head and drape them over the bed pillow or wherever for her to find. This works best if your hair color and hers are different or the hair length is different. +You just can't be real obvious about what you are doing or he'll end up pissed at you. A little retaliation can go a long way in this type of relationship to keep you feeling validated. +Epilogue +Well, I think I covered all the major issues that can go along with having an affair with a married man. Falling in love with someone special can be a wonderful thing. Falling in love with a married man can also be wonderful but there are many drawbacks to it too. If you feel you can deal with all the ups and downs in this kind of relationship, go for it. Just remember the outcome will include someone getting hurt. Whether it be the wife or you, someone will have their heart broken. Go into it with your eyes wide open, no expectations from the guy and if possible a lock on your heart. +In my case, I have no regrets for the affair, no regrets for falling in love with him, and no regrets for finally doing what was best for me - giving him up. I will love him the rest of my life even though it means being miserable without him. I let him live his life the way he needs to and hopefully he'll be happy. At least until his wife finds him cheating again with someone else. +This book was written to give insight into this kind of relationship, not to influence anyone into doing or not doing it. Just as a guide, from my point of view, after being there and doing that." +248,A Guide to Sensuous Pet Ownership,2502kelly,How To,2008-05-11,2008-05-11,2022-01-04 08:25:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-guide-to-sensuous-pet-ownership,Useful pet ownership tips.,"['Obedience', 'Pussy']",3.51,"I'm a big fan of pet ownership. Owning a pet can bring a lot of added joy into your life, and it's almost impossible to stay in a bad mood for very long when you gaze upon a pair of devoted pet eyes, especially after coming home after an exhausting day. +Pets are always so happy to see you; rubbing up against you or licking your feet; delighted to have you home. A pet's sole purpose in life is to love you and make you happy. +As a personal note on this subject, I've recently trained my pets to have my favorite cocktail waiting for me when I walk through the front door after a long day's work; giving me another reason to want to get home right away. +If you're considering owning a pet, I've put together a list of items below that I hope you find helpful. Pet ownership isn't for everyone and owning a pet comes with additional work and responsibility, but for most people the advantages of pet ownership far outweigh the disadvantages. + **Choosing Your Pet:** +I prefer having pussies as pets and I've owned a number of them over the years. As a pet, pussy pets require very little maintenance and in return they're very loving, appreciative and affectionate. I've have had all types of pussy pet breeds, and quite frankly, I thoroughly enjoyed them all. I relished owning one pussy so much, that I recently decided to get another pussy pet, so now I own two. +Pussy pet number one has a small delicate, sweet face with bright, hazel- colored, expressive eyes. Her cute, dainty, budding pink, pussy tongue peeks out behind her pouty, sensitive lips whenever I pet her. She loves to be touched; rubbing her ass back and forth and back and forth up against my bare legs; batting her long lashes and crying out for more. +""Me-ore. Me-ore,"" she implores me; begging me not to stop. +Her blond hair is extremely fine and very, very soft to the touch, and she has black highlights at the tips; adding interest to her light-colored features; making her sexy and exotic. She has small and pink, perky nipples, a tight little ass and dainty pussy feet. Her pussy ears and long pussy tail look like they've been dipped in black ink. This pussy will do anything I ask of her; I've trained her well. +Pussy pet number two is relatively new to our family and possesses a completely different personality and different features than pussy pet number one. She has very long, chestnut-colored hair with strands of summer gold running through it. Her brilliant, emerald green-colored eyes glitter with sass and mischievous intentions (see discipline). +Her perfectly lush, pussy lips are dark; almost purple; and she has full, ample nipples, which compliment her bountiful hips and round, supple ass. +She's quite talkative; always having to get the last word in edge-wise,or constantly interjecting her opinions (see discipline). She loves having her fluffy, long, silky tail brushed. She purrs and coos loudly; letting me know she loves the attention; loves to feel the hard brush bristles running through her hair; abrading her skin. +Sometimes as a bonus, I'll smack her ass with the back of the brush handle; sending her into ecstasy, and she pushes her generous butt further into the air; hips swaying, praying that I'll do it again and again and again. +The Introduction: +Introducing a new pet into its new home or introducing your new pet to an existing pet can sometimes be tricky. It's important that your new pet feels loved, wanted and safe in its new environment. If you already own one pet, it's quite possible that there may be some feelings of jealousy toward the new addition, so make sure you give plenty of undivided attention to both pets. +Feelings of jealousy between two pets can lead to a lot of yelling, screaming and pussy fighting between your pets, and that just isn't fun at all; imagine hair flying, screaming tantrums and slammed doors in your home. This isn't a very pretty picture, is it? My pets hated one another for months until they both finally realized I loved them equally; helping them to bond. +After some time passed, both pussy pets have come to realize how much they enjoy being together. They snuggle and fondle one another, and if I'm not there, they're constantly rubbing up against each other. Knowing that they both have one another has really made a difference in our happy home. +Pet Care: +Pet maintenance means providing your pet with a proper nutrition, grooming them regularly, and making sure they have all their necessary vaccinations. I'm lucky, because my pets love eating nearly all the same foods I eat: Fresh, multi-colored vegetables, lots of fresh fish and high fiber, low fat carbohydrates, like brown rice. +As far as bathing, both my pets enjoy licking the other clean; clean as a whistle. I've found they also love taking baths together too. I'll fill the bathtub full of water; adding a capful of cherry scented, bubble bath and they both climb into to the tub at the same time. They play together; washing the other's hair, backs and all the hiding places that get dirty, like in between pussy toes, underneath their long, talon nails, the skin beneath their pussy nipples and the delicate, soft, wet folds just behind their tails. +There's been times when all three of us have ended up in the tub together; splashing, washing and sponge-bathing each other. It's really a fun way to get clean. +Sleeping Arrangements: +Both my pets have their own separate beds, and most of the time they sleep together; bodies spooning, or tangled and wrapped around the other in one bed or the other. I've accidentally walked in on them from time to time, sleeping together on the couch, a chair, or the window seat (exhibitionism). +They're not picky about where they end up. If the mood strikes them they'll curl up and sleep together on the floor. I'm okay with this behavior as their owner. +There are times when we all sleep together in my bed, but that can get pretty crowded, hot, sweaty and loud (lots of zealous affection) which can cause issues with your neighbors, not to mention wreaking havoc on your circadian cycle. We save sleeping together in my bed for the weekends, so we have the time to sleep in late and lounge around in bed until late the next morning. +Pet Attire: +Choosing a distinctive style for your pet that best expresses what you want to convey can be a lot of fun for both you and your pet. Both my pets wear black latex, full bodied cat suits, with 4"" stiletto, black leather healed boots, neck collars and an occasional, ball gag. This may or may not fit your pet's style, but it's a perfect fit for my pussy pets. +Play Time: +Play time is essential for your pets and for you. It helps further the bond between you and your pet. My pussy pets and I frolic around the house all the time; naked; breasts bouncing, hair flying, lots of laughter and smiles. We usually all end up in an orgy, piled on the floor, or in my bed; ménage a trios with playful pussies. If we head outside to a park to romp around in the grass, both pussy pets must be on a leash. +Discipline/Obedience: +You may have noticed that I have referred to this chapter in other areas throughout the How To text. Discipline is very important. It should be used to make your pet understand that you're the master or the mistress of the house. +Discipline should be used to demonstrate that rules are necessary to not only protect your pet, but discipline is essential at keeping the chaos in your house to a minimum. +Pussy pet number one understands the rules; she obeys me and I don't have to discipline her very often, unless of course it's treat time and she wants a good spanking across her delicious bottom. +Pussy pet number two has had to learn the house rules the hard way, I'm afraid. After threatening pussy pet number two with the paddle, whip, or cat o' nine tails and she still refuses to obey me, I'm forced to use extreme measures to discipline her: Hog tying her while I'm away at work all day; gag ball in her mouth; trying to teach her that I'm the boss; the mistress of the house and she must obey me. +After countless hours of disciplining pussy pet number two, I've finally come to the realization that she enjoys provoking me. I tell her repetitively not to pounce on pussy pet number one and she knows not to use the carpet as her scratching post, but she does it anyway, because she knows she'll be punished later with the nipple clamps, or the spanking board. +You see, it makes me think that she likes the punishment I give to her. +I'm the mistress of the house, and I want my pets to be happy, so I acquiesce to pussy pet number two's naughty behavior and spank, whip, slap, blindfold, confine and tie her up, until she obeys me and then I lavish her with kisses and love. +Final Words: +Well, I hope your find these tips helpful in getting you started with owning a pet. Whether you love cats, dogs, birds, fish, snakes, rabbits, turtles, or pussies, pets make terrific additions to the family. I've mentioned a few challenges above, and of course there's some extra work and care involved in owning a pet, but in the end, the benefits are endless. Your pet can make you laugh after a rough day, cozy up to you on a blistering, cold night, and make bath time an exciting and fun experience. I wish you the best of luck and hope that you enjoy pet ownership as much as I do. +* + _Note: Please know this story is fiction. I'm both respectful and sympathetic of all animals. The pets in our lives often take on human characteristics and this story is really intended to highlight some of those human qualities, by erotically poking fun at the idea. I hope you enjoy it and please vote.

Submissives and slaves tend to be helpless to his charismatic flair when he turns on the charm to overdrive. He is dominant by nature. He expects everyone to recognize his power almost to a point that he may not realize his excessive demands have exhausted those that adore and worship his power. Yet something about him makes his magnetic attractiveness and that wicked glimmer in his eye hard for almost any submissive to ignore or resist his will upon them once he has snared them. He's a spirited hunter type that spots what he wants and almost always gets it. +He likes his submissives to be creative and energetic to match his limitless vitality. He likes to experiment and try new things. He will always push if not blast boundaries to the next demension. Even if he is the calculating kind of Aries Master, he will always want to step it up and take things to the next level. He likes a submissive to be his partner in crime, open to any spontaneous game he may want to partake. He can bore easily with the same old play that was amusing yesterday, and today is repetitious and tired. At such point, the Aries Master has no qualms about pursuing his next target without missing a step, and if you can't keep up that will be your loss. +If he is an unrefined Master, the Aries Master can be quite insensitive to the needs of his subs, which can cause somewhat of a disconnect. When a submissive has crossed the line of the Aries Master, punishment can be swift and severe. Where an unsuspecting submissive may not know why things have changed so suddenly before they have been struck. Overall, the Aries Master is good natured, alert and has no problem asserting his dominance with a straight forward in your face approach. He's the BOSS! +Guide to the Taurus Master +Taurus Masters love luxury. They have an natural affinity for the good life. They tend to work for everything they want and have. As for their submissives, they prefer a slave that has some usefulness in their lives. For this reason, Taurus Masters understand the pimp mentality. If the sub is worth it, they just seem to have a knack for work ethics and transforming effort into cash over time. +A Taurus Master expects every comfort and sensual delight to be supplied by a submissive. The way a slave looks, smells, sounds like, and gives pleasure, especially oral pleasure is of great importance to the Taurus Master. He makes it clear to his subjects that they are his property. It is not a complex philosophy to them. In so many ways a Taurus Master's submissives are aware of his sense of possession over them. A submissive may be a prized possession held on a pedestal for others to admire from a distance, but he makes sure it is understood that he holds the keys to the gilded cage. +Taurus Masters have no problem spoiling their submissives, especially if they plan to keep them. It is not uncommon to find a penthouse pet locked in its beautiful cage until Master returns for familiar comfort. The Taurus Master can be very firm about his decisions. When he has his mind made up, the submissive better make sure that they don't push their Master too far. First of all, he will not negotiate when he has put his foot down about something. No amount of coaxing, begging or pleading will move him to do otherwise. His punishment can be slow and relentless. It can start with making a slave stand in the corner for hours, then gradually building up to a furious beating. The Taurus Master seeks quality, rarity and uniqueness in his submissives. He appreciates stability and generously rewards constant obedience. +Guide to the Gemini Master +The Gemini Master will have wildly varying expectations from day to day. A slave with a Gemini Master will be required to stay on their toes to really please him. He prefers his submissives to have acute mental dexterity in order to keep up with him. He has very little real interest in a mindless zombie submissive. Yes, he will have the final say, but he enjoys the exchange of dialogue and banter to get to that point. Duality and transformation are features of his style of domination. A submissive may not really know what is expected of them with each new day, and the Gemini Master likes it that way. He can be thoughtful and benevolent and at a moments notice, despise a subject. +He has a an amazing ability to adapt to his surroundings. A submissive must also be keen to making adjustments in tuned with their Master. For this reason when two Geminis can resolve the power exchange of Master and submissive, they bring out the best and worst in eachother, yet maintain an understanding that outsiders can't quite decifer. Gemini Masters often enjoy polyamorous relationships with submissives. Twosomes, threesomes, foursomes and moresomes are not uncommon to the sweet and spice of a Gemini Masters multiferous palet. Gemini Masters also tend to enjoy experimenting with unusual sex contraptions found in their toybox or private dungeon. Anything that can create a new experience and even better if it has more than one purpose sparks the Gemini Master's sense of novelty in BDSM. +Slaves are tested and punished like a school master with a pop quiz. The Gemini Master really wants to be impressed, yet when a submissive fails to demonstrate their alertness to facts, a sadistic Gemini Master can think up a million ways to torture his pet. He will use every advantage where verbal assult is often his weapon of choice. Slinging humiliation like icy rain, his submissive better know which game it's going to be right now, or else! +Guide the the Cancer Master +There are typically two types of Cancer Masters. Both want, expect, demand complete, undying submission even if they do not ask for it directly. The first type can be very dangerous, more so found in the exchange between an immature dominant male Master and a female submissive. This Dom has a love hate relationship with most women and has not reconciled security issues. Submissives under this type Master are bound by the soul of this man and will endure years of emotional debasement. The other type wants a mother and whore submissive, who will give him a well rounded sense of his dominance. +Those who submit to this type Master more often see his gentle protective side, where he is more of a Daddy figure. His authority is assured by the return of graceful submission of his subjects where he takes pride in training submissives to be just the kind of slave that he requires. Those that are in the inner circle of a Cancer Master's world know that the outside world is just that. Outside! It's what goes on usually behind close doors is where the real Master is revealed. Cancer Master's can have strict sensibilities about how they want their submissives to live. They will take the time to carefully mold a submissive into their ideal slave, pet, or student. Submissives who belong to a Cancer Master are not easily disgarded if not from their bed, then in their mind. Cancer Masters have no problem with a family style of polyamorous living as slave sisters bound only by what he means to both women, sometimes even to the point where female submissives may be expected or desire to breed where he will control how the youngsters will be expected to be raised. +Cancer Master's often prefer tradional forms of punishment with his subs, like over the knee bare bottom spankings with the hand, belt, slipper, or hairbrush. Sophisticated Cancer Masters may enjoy the use of different kinds of whips, crops, and floggers to maintain discipline and order when his submissives disobey. He is highly intuitive and can be a very caring Master who knows how to soothe away trauma from punishment. +Guide to the Leo Master +The Leo Master takes his job seriously. When he knows he's desireable. He knows he's powerful, however it is important for everyone else to acknowledge that he is a Dominant King among commoners. In his full glory, the Leo Master wants the spectacle of mastership. Entrances at BDSM lifestyle clubs and events where beautiful subjects follow their Master. Demonstrations, exhibitions or private audiences at the lair are some familiar themes for the active Leo Master. He expects worship in any form from his submissives. He is more inclined to strong figures where he has topped them with his forceful, captivating style of taming the challenging admirer and drawing out the lamb of submission for him to chose to sanctify or to sacrifice. The latter type of submissive doesn't stick around for long. +The Leo Master likes ultra sexy slaves under his supervision. He prefers exotic slaves that evoke envy from others. It's ok for a Leo Master's submissive to have a fiery side, but they better know how to turn it down, better yet, off when their Leo Master requires their attention. The Leo Master can never have enough submissives. He knows how to keep subs falling to the ground without even the slightest command. It's his way of offering something special and different to each submissive within his domain. For this reason, he is has a very generous spirit that elicit incredible loyalty from his submissives. Hardcore Leo Master often favor extreme statements of belonging from submissives. +He prefers branding, tattoos and slave contracts as the testiment of servitude and gifts from subs. As magnamous as he can be, he can also demonstrate a fury that is downright frightening. If a submissive makes it through the consentual punishment without needing special attention, the Leo Master will display a rare affection that true submissives melt for everytime. The Leo Master wouldn't have it any other way. +Guide to the Virgo Master +The Virgo Master is so very hard to please. They expect purity in the expression of submission form their slaves. Every detail will be under scrutiny. Submissives to the Virgo Master have been selected for a very specific function, which they will be made aware of very early on in the exchange between Master and slave. They will be expected to perfect a technique, specialize in a narrow form of BDSM or adhere to a strict regimine that may make no sense to anyone but the Virgo Master. As a dominant, the Virgo Master is inclined to varying degrees of torture tactics, including mental torture for the willing submissive. These Masters make the best Bondage Masters. +They may have been boyscouts when they were young, but they have transformed the skill of rope ties, and knots to a very grown up game of Master and slave. Virgo Masters have a tendancy for the extreme. They can construct super nasty scenes beyond most imagination where the sub is the star. Intense, over the top sexual stimulus or deprivation just to see how a slave will react is not out of bounds for the Virgo Master. There is a very dark side lurking beneath the cool exterior of the Virgo Master. Not everyone will be aware of this level of dominance surging through his veins. The Virgo Master wants them to think that he's a simple man with a simple life. +For those who know that there are more layers to this onion, know that the Virgo Master wants to be the chameleon so he will not draw attention to himself when an unsuspecting submissive lands in his web. Submissives of the Virgo Master often become experts in areas of the forbidden arts due to the meticulous training of Master Virgo. Virgo Masters rarely have to administer punishment because their expectation are more than clear to the slave, yet when they do, a slave might wish for a flogging instead of the creative torture that this Master will inflict. +Guide to the Libra Master +The Libra Master rides a counterbalance between two very distinct worlds. One moment the Libra Master could savagely rape a willing submissive and the next gently caress the slave with equal conviction and passion. They are part beast and part angel. They can't decide which pleasures them more, so they do both. The Libra Master often prefers one slave at a time. They really look for the connectedness and relationship even within the bounds of a Master and slave relationship. The 24/7 live in slave is ideal for the the Libra Master. There may not be a wedding, but there will most likely will be a collaring cermony for the cherished pet. +When the submissive accepts the collar of this Master, which those in this position would generally beg for the chance because he's ultra charming and equally dangerous. They will get their gentle Master and their cruel Master all rolled up in a rather dashing package. The Libra Master appreciates beauty and grace. They have very little tolerance for overly damaged goods in a slave. They demand refinement, so they can be the one to defile their property. The mature Libra Master leans toward a tendancy for benevolence and fairness. Submissives are punished for legitimate injustices. The Libra Master needs a calming energy from their subs to feel grounded. +Guide to the Scorpio Master +When a submissive leaves or is dismissed from an encouter with a Scorpio Master, they usually either depart permanently scarred, or permanently loyal to their Master for life even if they are apart and live different lives. As for the permanently scarred sub, no one trifles with a Scorpio Master. They can be so enchanting. The Scorpio Master literally puts a spell on his submissives with his gentle form of mind control. Once the Scorpio Master penetrates his will in every area of a chosen submissive's life, the submissive will either be scared out of their wits or be very brave to allow a complete envelopment of control by their Scorpio Master. +The Scorpio Master most definitely prefers the latter. He likes for his slaves to demonstrate a high tolerance for pain and torture and, emotional and sexual endurance if he is deep into the BDSM lifestyle and culture. He appreciate one of a kind qualities and features in a slave. Things that no one else can do or has done. The dragon tatto that starts at the neck and runs to the sole of the feet. His subs must possess something special. He expects his submissives to be real, with emotion, and laughter, and real tears, not a robo model slave that has never experienced terror and bliss in the same room. Not that he's not open for inexperience in a submissive, he just requires the authentic person requiring his domination. The punishment for a sub could be withdrawl of sex, play, and attention time with Master. Eager submissives might find his rejection a much harsher form of punishment and discipline then the sting of the lash from his whip. The Scorpio Master in his highest form has the ultimate control over any personal situation, and most people he may encounter give him high respect. +Guide to the Sagittarius Master +The fun loving Sagittarius Master may demand submission from a sub and in no time have no use for them, therefore rendering the helpless sub totally confused. This Master prefers the hit and run approach to the BDSM scene. Indeed, he likes variety and knows just how to mix it up by attending slave resorts, nude beaches, and big sex conventions for sinful excursions. The Sagittarius Master wants intelligence and character in a submissive. +They can be very adaptable to different customs often seeking submissives who are from other countries than their own. The Sagittarius Master likes to be entertained, only because they can be so entertaining and engaging himself. The Sagittarius Master can be very harsh and abrupt with the things that they say whether intended or not, and he does not have the patients to suffer extended displays of a submissives emotions. +The Sag Master likes independent people and the challenge which they offer him to express his dominance simply by topping them. The mature Sagittarius Master constantly juggles his higher and lower selves. BDSM gives this Master the outlet, yet he will have to find a self defined spiritual connection with his activities to be an Awesome Master that other Doms and subs always remember and respect. He will be an afficionado in various forms of control, domination and punishment. Doing what he does, only better than the rest. +Guide to the Capricorn Master +The Capricorn Master prefers to have submissives of means and wealth. Not that he won't deal with a sub with no money, he just operates more comfortably knowing that his worth is not wasted on garbage. It is most delightful for him to have a sub with money that can have anything in the world who only wishes to serve him and please him. This Master often has a taste for sex slaves with domestic abilities as well. There will be no lazy slaves trained by Master Cappy. His submissives will be expected to demonstrate excellent serving skill. +The Capricorn Master wants documentation of his Mastership. Things like provocative video and pictures of his subs, slave contracts, or standardized responses from greeting him to what a sex slave will say when being punished give him great satisfaction in his ownership. Finances are of great importance to this Dominant type. He may have a demanding job, and expect his sex slave to create a comfortable home and bed to enjoy after work hours, or he may integrate the service of his submissive into something useful. Capricorn Doms usually are big on the technique of punishment. Certain favorites become an artform as they not only want the best from their subs, they also expect the best from themselves. +Guide to the Aquarian Master +The Aquarius Master already has it in his head who his ideal slaves are. He is very specific about what he likes and what he will and will not tolerate from a submissive. +This Master operates from a very logical place most times, therefore because of his cool exterior, a more sensitive sub may feel that Master disapproves or that he does not want their service and obedience to him. This could not be further from the truth. The Aquarian Master rations his emotions as a form of control over his subjects. He will use a submissive's insecurity to cruelly torture and relentlessly test his subs. It's his own little private game that often take a very long time until a sub is let in on what he really thinks. It is worth the wait! +Submissives will enjoy a Master who will teach them well. If not through life lessons spent with this Master, then from the gems of wisdom and the personal challenges he presents to his submissives to overcome and grow. Similar to the Leo Master, the Aquarian Master is quite comfortable with communal servitude. No two Master/submissive relationships will be the same with the Aquarian Master. Submissives will report quite different experiences with the same man. +There are sadistic Masters of this sign, however the Aquarian Master tends to punish slaves in the context of the submissive's desire to experience pain. Let it be understood though that if a wanton sub requires a firm hand, this Master is not short of ways to help the submissive to correct their behavior. The Aquarius Master provides a one of a kind gift to every new slave in his world that no other can fit that mold. +Guide to the Pisces Master +The Pisces Master usually spots his next slave even before they are aware of what this man will mean to them. Once a submissive becomes hooked on a Pisces Master, there is no turning back. He may be emotionally removed or distant at first when interacting with subs, yet those that wish to be claimed by him will draw deeply to him still and sincerely try to please him. His acute sensitivity to his surroundings make him prone to projecting his feelings onto his subjects. When life is good, there is no better Master. +His strong sense of compassion truly wish happiness for those that love and worship him. However, when things are not so great, this man can become easily aggravated therefore targeting his submissive as an outlet for misdeeds whether real or percieved. The Pisces Master has a rich fantasy life in his mind where he effortlessly is the maestro of his personal utopia. There is no greater turn on for the Pisces Master when a slave gently gets in on the act to join the two worlds of fantasy and reality." +250,Guidelines for Hot Wives,vargas111,How To,2004-09-29,2004-09-29,2022-01-04 08:29:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/guidelines-for-hot-wives,"Homer's sister advises wives who want to be ""hot.""","['Attract Men', 'Dress Skirt', 'Hot Wife', 'Knowing Hot', 'Maternity Clothes', 'Miss Opportunity', 'Remember Men', 'Wear Public', 'Wife Give', 'Wife Thing']",4.41,"**Guidelines for Happily Married Hot Wives** + _By Evangelina Vargas_ +[Using some text from DawnMWF4Blk] +OK, you have heard about being a ""hot wife."" It sounds sexy but a little scary, too. You have lots of questions and uncertainties and many women have written my brother, Homer Vargas, for advice. Well, he has asked me to reply because this is something better handled between us girls. With two grown daughters, one kid in kindergarten, one in nursery school, and a bun in the over, I've ""been there done that."" +Probably your first question is ""Why should I become a 'hot wife?'"" There are many reasons but the most important one is, love. You have a wonderful husband whom you love more than anything in the world. You want to please him, to make him happy. You think that he might like a hot wife, but maybe you are not sure. What if he thinks you are a slut? Put that out of your mind, sweetie. Take it from me; if your husband is a heterosexual male, he wants a hot wife. If he is not heterosexual (or is a little underpowered sexually), there may be other reasons for you to become a hot wife, but I will not deal with those here. Men want hot wives; therefore you want to become the woman he wants. +Besides wanting to please your man, it's also a matter of elementary justice. Your husband deserves a hot wife. He has made a commitment to you. He loves you above all other women. He has promised to be faithful to you, giving up pussy from all those other little hotties he was fucking before he met you. You owe him at least the sexual satisfaction he could be getting from those other women if he were still ""on the loose."" +In addition, being a hot wife should be a mater of personal fulfillment. You are a woman and you want to be the best, the sexiest, the most feminine woman possible. Becoming a hot wife -- an ever hotter hot wife -- will give meaning and purpose to your life, releasing you from self centeredness and ennui. +Then, too, being a hot wife is a very healthy lifestyle. To become and remain a hot wife, you will have to exercise daily, watch what you eat, maintain your body in top form. Dieting and physical fitness will not seem like a chore when you keep in mind that you are honing your body for your adored husband's sexual gratification. You are not just a ""sex object"" -- and proud of being a damn good one – you are a sex object d'art! +Moreover, being a hot wife is to your material advantage. You want the good things of life: a nice house, fancy clothes, travel, fine food. So how does being a hot wife get you these things? Simple, honey. To acquire the material possessions you want, you need a financially successful husband. And nothing contributes to a man's success more than having a hot wife. +For one thing, a hot wife at home does wonders for a man's self confidence. After a night with you, he walks into that boardroom or law office or shop floor and looks around knowing that no other man in that room has a wife as hot as his! No one else, only a few hours ago, had a woman riding his cock, screaming his name in ecstasy as she orgasmed over and over, begging him to fuck her longer, harder. A man with a couple of good early-morning fucks like that under his belt can kick ass and get other men to do things his way. +But in addition to his self confidence, the reputation of having a hot wife will give your husband leg up in any encounter with other men. Remember, men are competitive, always measuring themselves against other men. When his rivals and co-workers know your husband has a hot wife, it gives him prestige and allows him to get his way. He'll be the one chosen for the highest bonus, the promotion, the challenging assignment that leads to advancement. And of every dollar he earns, 75% to 80% will be spent on YOU, his loving hot wife. (Of course if you are a hot high income professional that will further boost your husband's career.) +There is another reason as well that must be mentioned, girls, even thought it's not too pleasant. You need to be a hot wife in self defense. Knowledge that your man is married immediately makes him a much more attractive target for other women. For some women, knowing a man is able to make a commitment causes their claws to grow. Tired of boyfriends whom they have screwed for months or years only to see them slip from their clutches; these women may figure that here is a man who has proven catchable. +For others, it's just the opposite. They know you have your guy well tied down and he's not likely to get serious when all a girl wants is sex. And the way you look and act indicates that at least one other woman (you) has found him highly satisfactory in the sex department. Yummy! +Still other women seek out married men because they know that married men are likely to be sexually unsatisfied. Sad to say, most women (you are going to be a glorious exception) cut back on the frequency and nastiness of sex once they have ""landed"" a guy, leaving the poor schmuck flopping around in frustration like a fish out of water. +Finally, and this is paradoxical, the very success that your husband achieves thanks to your being his hot wife, makes him a more desirable prey. There are hundreds of sexy, slutty women out there wanting to take your husband from you and you have to be sexier and sluttier than they are to keep him! +Now that you understand the reasons to become a hot wife, the important question is, ""how."" First, and this is almost too elementary for me to have to mention but many women miss this point: SEX. Yes! You will want to make love, have sex, fuck, screw, boff, shag, get it on, ""do it"" with your husband every time he can get it hard. Any woman can out-fuck any number of men so there is no reason for your husband ever to be horny if your pussy is around. The key to a happy, successful, faithful husband is enough sex to keep his eyes crossed. +Almost more important than the frequency and nastiness (we'll get to that later) of sex is to make sure he understands that you want sex it because HE is a macho sexy Neanderthal stud. You are not doing him a favor (although you are!). These are not just frequent mercy fucks. You are fucking him because he turns you on. He makes you hot. He makes you want sex. He makes you NEED sex! With such a man, you are a sex slave! +Now let's talk about what kind of sex to have with your husband starting with what kind not to have. It will NOT be once a week, in the bedroom, missionary position, lights out, ""think of England"" while he empties his balls in you. No! You are so burning with lust for your husband that you will want him to take you on the shagrug in the living room, on the dining table, bending over in the kitchen, draped over the back of the sofa in the family room, in the shower. You have a totally irresistible desire to let him eat you and an almost irresistible desire to give him blowjobs (you swallow greedily), tempered only by the thought that each load of cum in your mouth is one less in your needy pussy. You are multi-orgasmic, or will fake it until you train yourself to become so. You are a moaner and a groaner and a squealer and a screamer. You claw his back in ecstasy. You like it doggie style, riding his cock, legs bent behind you head or heels (6"" stilettos) in the air. He can call you every filthy name in the book if it gets you a harder cock and a more cum pumped into your needy pussy. You put every porn movie he's ever seen to shame. +Because you want to fuck your husband so desperately, all the time, you are constantly looking for ways to excite him, to entice him, to make him want to fuck you. This means taking the initiative, seducing him! You will want to have a collection of sexy nightwear and scandalous casual wear for around the house that signal your constant horniness. Seldom is total nudity best. Always keep on a necklace, bracelets, and your heels during sex. Cleanliness is good and perfume is great, but never wash off or cover up the womanly scent of an aroused pussy. Be proud of how wet he makes you and put up with the mess. +Of course you do not stop being a hot wife when your hubby is off making money for you to spend. A true hot wife would not be able to go through a long day without her man if she did not have toys to keep her sane. Dildos and vibrators will keep you simmering and ready for his return. Masturbation is also important to help you become or remain multi-orgasmic. And of course he likes to know that while he is away, you are missing him so badly you need a large cylindrical object up your twat. +As you get into being a hot wife, seeing how proud and happy your husband is, you will gain self confidence about displaying your body. You may decide to start taking out the trash early in the morning wearing only a flimsy nightie. You may want to shop for groceries in a short shift that lets anyone see you have nothing on beneath it but your stockings and heels. If you work, you will occasionally ""forget"" to wear bra and panties to the office. +Now the next point is not for everyone and not absolutely necessary to be a hot wife, but many hot wives are strongly bi. Girl/girl sex is a great way to pass the long horny hours when hubby is away but it's also a great way to find women to bring to his bed for a threesome. (Husbands love WMW threesomes.) I have found nothing turns my husband on faster than seeing another little honey and me with our tongues buried in each other's pussies. And later I let him show me how grateful he is. +Hair is also important. You want a hairstyle that is attractive to your husband, not something that is convenient or easy to manage. Generally men like longer, curly or wavy hair. Variety is nice. If you are brunet, go blonde. If you are blond, try red or darker, perhaps darker with highlights. You have to find what works for you, but the important thing, is you are doing this for him. Don't ask him how he likes you new style; ask him if it makes you look sexier. When he says yes, make him prove it. +Finally a word on body type. Any ""body"" can be hot as long as you are neither anorexic nor seriously obese. In general men like rounder and fuller women than other women do. Before you decided to become a hot wife, you were probably keeping your weight down because of the expectations of other women, so it's likely you will can to put on a few pounds. On the other hand taking off a few pounds can say, ""I want to be sexy for you."" +So far we have discussed what you need to do in private. Being a hot wife, however, is as much or more about how you behave in public as it is about what you do when you are alone with your husband (or with him and one or two other women). If there is one golden rule of hot wife public behavior it is: DRESS THE PART. When you go out, remember you are NOT dressing for yourself. You are no longer dressing for other women as most women are prone to do. You are not even dressing just for your husband. You are dressing to show off for and tease your husband's friends, co-workers and rivals. You are dressing to attract and please other men. +Dressing to please and attract other men takes more time and work but take it from me, it will pay off tremendously in amount of attention you receive and how it affects your own ""hot wife attitude"". You should always keep in mind what the men you are trying to attract will probably like but in general follow this simple rule when choosing what to wear: ""Think dress first, skirt second, and pants only as a last resort."" This will be a radical change for many women but it's important to remember that most men prefer their women in dresses as opposed to pants. Short dresses and skirts are sexier to most men and they provide easier access in erotic situations. Any skirt or dress that's more than barely hiding your cookies should have a slit to show more flesh. Even a long gown can be sexy if slit nearly to the waist. You never know when you will have the opportunity to attract that certain man and you need to be dressed for the opportunity when it comes. The good news is that the hot wife lifestyle will probably make you feel like dressing up more and the more you wear dresses and skirts, the more you will find yourself wanting to. +Now I can already hear the objections. ""Oh, Evangelina, I could never wear clothes like that. I'm too [fill in the blank] short-tall-round-thin-dark- light."" Nonsense. The point is not to have women (skinny supermodels) make clothes look sexy; it's to have clothes make women (of all sizes and shapes) look sexy. Believe me, girlfriend, any woman looks good in a miniskirt and a top that shows the rounded top of your boobs. +What you wear under your dress or skirt is as important as the outfit itself. All men love women in sexy lingerie. The colors and styles you may want wear will vary but in general, here are some suggestions and rules to follow: +1\. Always wear matching or at least coordinated lingerie. +2\. Bras should maximize your bust size and display as much cleavage as possible. +3\. Choose thongs or French cut panties (crotchless) are best. Avoid white cotton unless you are going for the ""Catholic Schoolgirl"" look. If you are with men who know you, no panties is the best option. +4\. Always wear hosiery. High tops and thigh highs are great for casual wear but stocking held up by corsets or garter belt are best for formal occasion. No pantyhose. If you are like me, you probably have worn pantyhose your whole life, but they are death to your image as a hot wife. It is practically impossible get fucked on short notice if you are wearing pantyhose. Men understand this and detest them. Pantyhose say ""I'm off limits"" -- not the message you want to send. Besides, it's pretty difficult even to finger your self or let a man finger you, in the damned things. End of sermon. Stockings, on the other hand, will make you feel far sexier and more feminine and they provide your husband easier access as well as a sexier sight. Once you get used to wearing them, you will probably have no trouble giving up pantyhose. Seamed stockings are the ultimate for attracting men. You will always get a lot of attention in clubs if you wear them and if you dare to wear them in public in the daytime, men will drool. +The only shoes you should ever wear in public are high heels. This will take some getting used to as well, but men love them. Three-four inches are fine for casual entertaining, but try for four-five inches for nights out. High heel, spaghetti strap, open toe sandals are the ultimate ""fuck me"" shoes. +Jewelry is a must! It should be flashy, designed to attract the attention you deserve. Earrings should be large, loopy or dangling. Necklaces should draw wandering eyes to your cleavage. Always wear your wedding ring. Men love to think the might be getting a shot at another man's wife! Anklets and toe rings are a good sign that you are a willing hot wife looking to attract men. Bracelet's and anklets show you are a happy member of your husband's one-woman harem. A pierced navel below your tank top makes a sexy statement: ""I'll do anything to keep my husband fucking me."" Long highly polished nails in dark, daring colors help draw attention to you. And this goes for toes in those high-heal sandals. +Being a hot wife is more than just looks, however; it's also how you act. +1\. In a situation where you are trying to catch a man's eye; make sure to make plenty of eye contact with him and smile. +2\. Show lots of leg. Cross and uncross your legs and bounce the top leg on the lower one, perhaps pointing the toe of your shoe. If you find that you are very attracted to him, eventually let the skirt ride high enough so that he can see that you are wearing stockings and garters. In clubs a woman wearing stockings and garters is taken as a sign that she is there to get fucked. And of course you are – by your husband that night – but no one else knows that. +3\. Apply and reapply lipstick. Men want to see signs that you can't wait to suck a cock and lipstick is a great way to send that signal. +4\. Never miss the opportunity to drop something and bend over – from the waist, never bend your knees. (That's what those expensive sessions in the gym are for.) +5\. When dancing (probably the closest you can get to having sex in public), move your husband's hands to your ass and press close to him during slow dances. If you can feel his cock, he can feel your tits. Don't be shy about letting everyone see you come on his finger. With other guys, let them handle the merchandise knowing just exactly what they can't have. Fast dances give you the opportunity to whirl and twirl and flash your pretty panties or your prettier pussy if you're not wearing any. +6\. If a man puts his hand up your dress; whisper in his ear and ask if him if he would like you to remove your panties. +7\. If he compliments your dress; tell him you wore it hoping to meet a man like him. +8\. Never miss an opportunity to tell him how sexy he is and how sexy and feminine he makes you feel. +9\. However much you flirt with other guys, hang on your husband. Rub up against him. Squeeze his arm. Nibble his ear. Gaze into his eyes adoringly. Demonstrate to onlookers how eager you are for him to fuck you. +10\. Do not hesitate to sneak off with your husband to do the dirty during a public event. Sex in public will probably not help his career, but for a man to be seen being dragged away by a hot wife who can't endure another minute without his cock in her, is a real plus. +11\. When you depart early from a social event, make sure everyone knows it's because you are horny and need your husband to take you home and fuck your little brains out before you rape one of the guests. +12\. If your husband travels, meet him at the airport dressed to kill – heels, see-through blouse, cunni-skirt, the works. When you see him, fling yourself into his arms and start a stand-up make out session that will shame other wives and drive other husbands mad with jealousy. Make sure the other passengers know what you and he are going to be doing as soon as you get home (if not in the taxi). Leave the men shaking their heads thinking, ""What the Hell does he put in her water?"" +13\. Take your husband shopping for sexy clothes and underwear; modeling them is lots of fun. Husband love to say, ""No"" to wives who ask them, ""Does this show off my titites too much?"" ""Do you think this skirt is too short?"" +All of the above are fundamental to being a hot wife, but there is one thing that tops it all. Pregnancy! A hot wife wants to make babies for her husband. His genes deserve to have as many copies poured into the gene pool as possible and – hey, as a hottie, yours do too. If knowing he has a hot wife at home is good for a guy's ego (and earning potential) how much more is knowing he got his hot wife pregnant! By the same token, if other men are envious knowing your husband is fucking the shit out of his little hottie, they'll become comatose when they find out you let him knock you up. And all those sexy things you wear – skirts, heels, stockings -- and the sexy things you do – dancing, teasing, flashing -- are twice as exciting when done by a woman with a bulging tummy. +There are ways to flaunt it in, however. Start wearing maternity clothes – outrageously sexy, revealing maternity clothes – as soon as the rabbit dies. There is nothing sexier than a pregnant woman and you are letting everybody see it. Hint to your friends that you had intended to wait longer before getting pregnant, butyour sexy husband got you so wound up one night you had an ""accident."" Alternatively, you might let them think this was your surprise gift to him. Always say ""this baby"" or refer to it by number, implying that this is just the most recent offspring of many; your husband may be planning to keep you in maternity clothes until you are 60. Hold, pat, and rub your belly at every opportunity. Show off in public with his hands proudly on his wife's baby-filled tummy. Cultivate a dopey, fucked-out-of-it expression. Tell the wives of your husband's friends how your libido has just gone through the roof. It will get back to their men who will want to shoot themselves in frustration. None will be able to look your husband in the eye. +A final word on age. You are never too old to become a hot wife. It's even more important, in fact, if you have taken a younger man as your husband. Although your dresses may not be quite as short now as when you were in Jr. High fucking the football squad, a hot woman of thirty five or forty or fifty is hotter than any twenty year old in full slutwear. And this goes in spades when you are pregnant. Imagine your gray-at-the-temples husband in the middle of a multimillion dollar negotiation when he says, ""Can we roll this up pretty soon, TJ? My wife's about to pop with our seventh kid and I need to get home to give her a good fuck!"" +Wishing you every happiness as a hot wife, +Evangelina +The end + _Comments please to Homer Vargas._" +251,Guidelines for Ownership,Meanderingpoet,How To,2005-07-15,2005-07-15,2022-01-04 08:29:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/guidelines-for-ownership,Comprehensive guide on owning your submissive slut.,"['Bondage And Submission', 'How To Care For A Slave', 'Intimidating', 'Master', 'Ownership', 'Slut', 'What A Slave Wants']",4.17,"Welcome to the world of bondage, submission, control and pleasure. Your decision to consider the ownership of a fine young submissive brings you one step closer to understanding the satisfaction and enjoyment that a pet or servant can bring. There may be some doubts or questions that trouble you in your interest of a young slut to serve you. This guide will dispel your doubts and help you realize whether or not a submissive is right for you. Please remember this is not a contract, merely a guideline as the relationship between a Dominant and a submissive is a very fluid concept. As far as the terms of consent and safety go, the sky is always the limit for the relationship between a Master and slave, with very few hard and fast rules. The key is to be flexible, creative and to enjoy the lifestyle as well as each other. +I. Acts of Ownership. The first aspect of ownership is by far the most important. It is the consent to be owned, and the Will to Own. It may sound obvious, but servitude begins as an idea, and is indeed a highly mental lifestyle/activity. The first, and most important, responsibility of a true owner is to make the ownership known. This could take place as the verbalization i.e. ""I own you,"" ""you are mine,"" ""Come here, slut."" Or any other verbalizations that get the point across, that the subordinate is under control of the master. With a creative mind this will not become a tedious activity, as verbalization isn't the only way to make a slave feel like she's owned. Marking is also a highly erotic act of ownership that will keep a pet in line and content. Bruises from biting, cutting, or even a magic marker act as the tools to ensure the slut feels she belongs. The mark acts as a brand, and even if only she can see the act of ownership, it is a mental awareness for her state. In public, proprietary touching, eye contact and body language can work just as strongly to keep silent control over a pet. You can save the violent, sexual, and painful training for private, and still fill your servant with the satisfying glow of being owned without drawing attention in public. If a servant isn't feeling properly chastised she is likely to act out without the proper restrictions. Her need to feel controlled will propel her to take actions that will cause slightly more violent repercussions. It is best to act with rational discipline, and make quiet, though distinct demands of your sub while in public +II. Pushing boundaries. The second guideline to leading a productive life with a submissive is the aspect of pushing limits while keeping trust intact. This is crucial to maintaining a safe, though stimulating relationship. Safe words, I find, are for Dom/sub combos who don't share a certain wavelength, and are certainly a last resort. A healthy, communicative relationship between a master and submissive will create an ability for the master to sense when the sub is pushed too far. +It is imperative for the Dominant to know the slut's limits better than even the pet herself so that those limits can be stretched without the pet being broken. That means monitoring breathing, the body's limits, the pain limits, and how limber the slut is. Paying close attention to the slave will reward the master with a very intimate view of what they control, and how to best use what they own without causing harm to the slave. By constantly stretching limits the master and slave can both feel proud in what the slave can accept, and how far the master can push. +By not pushing or stretching the slut a relationship can become unfulfilling and seem stagnant. While you, the master may enjoy the slave for her charm, her sex appeal, and your desire to control; she looks to you as a guide, as a lover, and as a father figure who would know best for her. She expects you to punish her when she is wrong, be strong for her, and forceful in your desires. Your slave will want to please you in every way, no task too small...So making the most miniscule demands will become commonplace as you ask her to tie your shoes, or wear that certain dress you like. Her fantasy is to adore you, belong to you, and please you in every way. What does she get out of it? The feeling of belonging, of purpose, of being part of something bigger than herself, the pleasure of being selfless, and above all making her master happy and proud. Praise is like candy to slut, and chastising your slave will have her thanking you for teaching her how better to serve. +III. Monogamy. You will be wondering by now if your slut will expect you to be 100% monogamous, and whether it's worth the trouble. In my experience, there is often love that accompanies the need to serve. If there is a submissive that wants you as her very own master, she has chosen you with good cause. She loves you, trusts you, find you attractive and sane. You're everything she'd want in a boyfriend or husband; only she wants this separate form of relationship. +This does not tie you two solely together as the only relationships in your lives, or forbid you or her from forming other relationships. However, both your subordinate and yourself will be expected to be important in each other's everyday lives. She may choose to date other people, but will see you above others, as a man among boys, and also will see herself in higher form than any girls her Master may entertain. With the proper attention and care your slave will not mind your discreet pursuit of others, and will not act with jealousy or withdraw. It is only when a submissive is ignored or mistreated that a Master's advances towards other girls, submissive or vanilla, become harrowing. A slave should be confident of her place in her master's life, and as long as she is sure of herself and where she belongs as her owner's property she will be content. +IV. Communication. The individuals who believe that the BDSM is solely concerning the master, and that slaves need not be communicated with give the lifestyle/scene a bad name. Communication is the first step towards trust, eroticism, and striking a balance between what a slave and master desire. Talking means safety, as a slaves limits will not be crossed if it is spoken beforehand. Also a Master's whims cannot be fully anticipated, and stating desires will give a slut a perfect understanding of what's expected of her. Without communication all other aspects of this guide are void, as it is imperative that Owner and pet are both on the same page understanding the precious bond between them." +252,Guys Guide to Going Down,PaulBlart,How To,2011-12-16,2011-12-16,2022-01-04 08:29:14,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/guys-guide-to-going-down,A Cunnilingus Primer.,"['Cunnilingus', 'Eating Pussy', 'Going Down']",4.39,"My first experience with going down was a clumsy experience that left my girlfriend frustrated and me a little embarrassed and not at all excited about repeating. But then I met my now wife who is wild about receiving oral and made it her mission to turn me into the best pussy eater she could. Now, granted some of my tips here are going to be kind of particular to her tastes, but I think you can have fun exploring with your lady and use some of this information as a springboard to developing this area of your sex life. So, here we go. +1\. Pussy is very much an acquired taste. Think beer, coffee, wine, etc. The first time you tried any of these, you probably wondered how anyone could ever drink that crap. But, with experience you develop an appreciation for the taste. So it is with your lady's juices. If you have some concern about smell or taste, maybe plan to give your lady a bath or shower with her before. +2\. Don't just dive in. Women aren't like us, ready for action at a moment's notice. My wife loves getting a massage. It relaxes her and she finds it very erotic to have me rub oil on her body. By the time I work my way down to her feet, she's ready to turn over and have my face between her thighs. +3\. More than technique, women love enthusiasm. Don't go down half heartedly. Many women are very self conscious about receiving oral and anything less than your eager participation may totally kill the experience for her. So, get in to it. Afterwards, complement her on how she tasted, but no talking from you during the main event. This is about her and she really doesn't want to hear anything from you other than maybe a little moaning to emphasize how much you are enjoying this. +4\. Be gentle at first. Again, especially the clit is very sensitive and more so when you first start. Kiss around her abdomen, her inner thighs, her mons, her lips. Suck her lips between your, er, lips very gently. When you sense her warming up, move on to working your way toward the clit. Tease her a bit by darting your tongue around the clit, but once you start licking the clit itself, don't stop and move off. You can use a circular motion, up and down, trace the alphabet with your tongue, it should be pretty evident to you what she likes the best. Once you find a rhythm she likes, stay with it as much as you can. +5\. Most women like for you to use your hands. Sometimes my wife likes me to just get on my hands and knees and use tongue only, other times she prefers to have fingers inside. Hopefully your lady is comfortable enough to tell you what she wants and what feels good. But one thing I like to try is inserting two fingers with my palm facing up toward her clit. You'll feel a small ""button"" like structure in the anterior portion of her vagina. This is the G-spot and simultaneous stimulation of it along with tonguing the clit will send most women into orbit. I will often crook my fingers forward rhythmically (like signaling for someone to ""come here"") on either side of the G-spot and occasionally I'll stroke the spot with a circular motion using my middle finger. +6\. Now, this sounds a little strange, but I'm so in tune with my wife during oral that I can actual feel in my genitals when she is about to climax. Weird, I know. As she gets very close, she starts to grind her pussy into my face. When this happens, let her take control. Keep with your rhythm, but let her take care of the pressure. She's going to apply the pressure she wants. Don't worry if you're having trouble getting a breath at this point, she's so close you can hold your breath until she finishes. If your fingers are inside, you'll obviously have a better idea when her orgasm starts. At this point, you can just continue what you're doing or start to suck her clit rhythmically between your lips. +7\. As her orgasm subsides, she's getting very sensitive down there, but she doesn't exactly want you to disengage just yet. Greatly reduce the pressure and let her ride out the final contractions of her orgasm. Slow your rhythm until your open mouth is over her clit with your tongue simply resting on it and just stay there for a few minutes while she recovers. I like to finish by kissing all around her pussy for a few minutes. +Hopefully, this will help you get started. There are few women who don't cherish a man who loves to go down. Of course nothing makes you better like lots of practice." +253,Handjob,CuckoldGuy,How To,2011-02-19,2018-02-11,2022-01-04 08:29:14,12,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/hand-job-5,1.

The characters are eighteen years of age or older and only their names have been changed._ +* +When my wife was in her last year of high school, she and a fellow classmate were trying to gain membership into the National Honor Society which they did accomplish at the end of the year. +They were over achievers and often studied together. After school, she would go to the boy's house, where they would go up to his bedroom and study. They did this a couple of times a week plus some weekends over the course of a year. +During those times, in the sanctuary of his bedroom, Joel would teach Rosemarie in the many ways of how to masturbate him. He could have deflowered her but instead, being over achievers, they turned masturbation into an art form. +For that year, he would fondle and suckle her breasts. Then he would show her how to handle and play with his penis. She learned the many ways of stroking his erection to his ultimate pleasure. She played his genitals like a skilled musician plays their instrument. +At the end of the year, his mother broke up their relationship and he was forbidden to be with her. Then I came along and fell under the spell of her pleasuring hands. Like Joel, I was circumcised, so it was easy for her to transfer her skills over to me. +I was circumcised at birth, so I've never experienced having a foreskin. Not having that extra skin leaves my glans exposed and my penis is very sensitive, so when a girl feels it, she must use a very delicate touch, like she was handling an exotic orchid. +If a girl strokes an uncircumcised penis, she can use the foreskin as a lubricant and move it back and forth over the glans. Because of the thickness of the foreskin, she probably needs to use a firm grip to give her partner the sensations which will bring him to climax. She probably has to masturbate him for a longer period of time than if he were circumcised. +In the days before I met my wife, most of the girls who fondled my genitals would hurt me. One girl I remember seemed so gentle. She spoke so softly and she gently took my erection in her hand. Then she tightened her fist around it and started pumping it hard and fast. She ruptured several blood vessels before I could stop her. It took a month for them to clear up. Another girl jacked my erection like it was a pump and another cut my scrotum with her finger nail. +Then I met Rosemarie. Thanks to Joel, she was well trained in the many ways in which to fondle and masturbate a circumcised penis. The feel of her stroking hand is so gentle, soft, so tender and sensual, only a woman twice her age might possibly know how to do it. +Rosemarie will wrap her hand around the base of my shaft and watch it grow in her hand. Then loosen her grip to a very, very light touch, like a feather touch, as she slowly begins to stroke up and down, all the while, she is studying my face for the signs of pleasure that she knows she is giving me. +Sometimes she will change her feel so that just her forefinger and thumb circle my shaft as she continues her stroking. This is one of her many ways of prolonging my pleasure or she will just lightly stroke the mushroom head, making me squirm in pleasure. +As she strokes, she is watching my face, listening to my breathing, feeling for my body to tense up, looking for that sign that I'm near my climax and then she will bring me away from the edge. She may use only one fingertip, massaging what I call, my ""F"" spot. +Like the ""G"" spot in a woman, the ""F"" spot or frenulum, by it's technical name, is a highly sensitive area on the underside of the penis. It is located where the glans or head joins the penile shaft. It is the nerve center for the entire penis. Like the glans it is exposed in a circumcised penis. +She delights in seeing how long she can keep me on the edge and she will decide when I climax. When she decides, she will stroke me until I gasp, I tense up, I begin to shake and I moan. +When she knows that I'm about to cum, she will bring her hand up to her mouth and fill her palm with her warm saliva. Then I feel the intense sensations of her warm slippery hand engulf the head of it. She firms up her grip as she slides her hand down the shaft. She cups her other hand above the head as I begin ejaculating into it. +She can make the stroking session last a long time or she can make me climax in a very short moment. In any case, I am completely drained and gratified for days after. +I remember one night when we went to the movies. We were in the lobby, standing in line, waiting for the crowd to leave from the previous show. As the crowd was exiting a girl walked by us with her boyfriend. She said, ""Hi Jack"" and she continued walking as the crowd was moving her along. +I replied, ""Hi Lisa."" +My wife was standing in front of me and she turned around, pressing her body against mine. She hooked her fingers into the front of my pants and pulled them away from my body so she could snake her other hand down into my pants. I felt her hand caress my flaccid penis and it responded by getting hard. +While she was holding it, one of her fingers, I don't know which one, began massaging my ""F"" spot very fast. While she was doing this, she looked into my eyes and said, ""So who's your friend?"" +At the time, I was going to school at night and I answered her, ""She's in one of my classes."" +Her finger continued massaging that spot and in less than a minute, I began to shake. She whispered, ""Kiss me."" I did and in that crowded lobby, I ejaculated in my pants. +After we were seated, she said, ""How do you feel?"" +""I'm wet and sticky."" +She replied, ""Serves you right."" +""But I didn't do anything."" +Her hand jobs helped save her virginity for the time when we would be married. It was her hand jobs that made me take her out on that second date and eventually marry her. It has been her hand jobs that have kept me married to her for all of these years. +If I tell her that I was restless and did not sleep last night, than tonight, you can be sure, I will get a stroking. If I get upset about something, she will calm me down with a stroking. If I become suspicious about a man in her life, she will set me at ease with a stroking and when I protest my subservient status, she will stroke me into submission. +The first two years that we were dating, I would satisfy her with my fingers. I could get her so aroused and passionate that I could question her on her sex life. She would tell me about the boy who taught her how to jerk him off. How he would play with her tits and then she would jerk him off. That she really liked him. +In that aroused state, she told me about one of her teachers, a man in his late forties, who would look at her breast while talking to her. How it got her so aroused by him just looking. While she was telling me these secrets, she would get so hot that she would push my head down into her crotch and try to pull my mouth into her. She loved cunnilingus and she probably used it to keep me from asking too many questions. She did instruct me in the many ways in which to please her and I think I got real good at it. +After she was gratified, she would whisper in my ear, ""Here, let me help you. Oh! It's so big and hard. The head is so smooth and hot. I love the feel of it in my hands and Oh! Your balls feel so big and heavy. They're beautiful and this cock of yours is magnificent."" +During those stroking sessions she would always build up my ego and I could never lie to her inquiring questions. +She went on, ""I just like stroking it up and down like this. It's beautiful and your so handsome. You're smart and strong and with a cock like this, I'll bet you've had a lot of girls, haven't you?"" +""No."" +""Oh, come on. You can tell me. You know I wouldn't tell anyone."" +""No! I've never fucked anyone in my life."" +""You're telling me, that a handsome guy like you, has never fucked a girl? Here, let me wet my hand. Oh, yes. Now it's nice and slippery. Feels good, doesn't it?"" +""Yes, Oh yes."" +""Are you sure that you've never gotten laid?"" +""I swear to you, I'm a virgin. I'm, I'm going to cum... Oh, God! I'm cumming."" +Mutual masturbation is the perfect way for two people to get to know each other. They can talk to each other while pleasuring each other. It was during those stroking sessions that I became addicted to her hands. With her hands she could give my penis the most intense sensations, so much more than having intercourse. +After we got married, intercourse was a big disappointment to me. When we copulate and we both climax, I pull it out of her but my cock is still a little fluffy. In a couple of minutes, I'm ready to go again but she always goes into a deep sleep. I'm never fully gratified or satisfied as when I cum by her hand. +In all of the years that we have been together, she has never, ever, given me a blow job. There are times when she is stroking me that she will stop and put her mouth close to it. She looks like she is debating whether she should suck it or not. She will glance up at me and looking into my eyes, she will open her mouth as if to suck it. She thinks to herself, ""No! You're not going to get that."" She then resumes her stroking. +There were times when she has taken it in her mouth and kissed it and sucked it a little but never sucked it to climax. The most she would ever do, is give it two sucks and then say, ""put it in me."" +In those early years I tried to coax her into fellatio but she would have none of it. She would get get so angry that it broke the mood. So I gave up trying. +At the end of our first year of marriage, her boss cuckold me. Now that he was fucking her, Rosemarie went back to masturbating me. For him and his friends, she gave blow jobs and I came to know that she is very good at it but for me, I only get her hand jobs. +She claims that it is very degrading for her to suck my cock. For that same reason, she has never worn a sexy negligee for me. She claims that it would make her look cheap. I know the psychology behind this behavior but to explain it, I would have to write another essay. +Fellatio is the ultimate pleasure a person can give a man but it requires that the person giving, becomes the submissive. The man receiving becomes the dominate partner. My wife could never become a submissive to me and yet with her boss and his friends, she had no problem. With a strange man, she could let her hair down but with me, she had to maintain that good girl image. +When a man is getting a blow job, he can talk and tell his partner what he likes, what he feels. The submissive can say nothing but just stay there with their mouth full, listening to him while sucking his cock. +Rosemarie grew up in a household where the men dominated the subservient women. Rosemarie vowed that she would never be dominated or subservient to her husband and I agreed with her. We should be equal but some how, by using her hands, I fell into submission. +When my wife wants to get something from me or wants me to agree to something, she will get it by stroking me. I remember one night in particular. Her girl friend, Judy and her husband were going on vacation and Judy asked my wife if we wanted to go with them? That night, over dinner, my wife asked me and I said, ""No."" +We had a heated discussion over it and I said, ""No and that's final."" +After we cleaned up the dishes and kitchen, I went and sat on the sofa in the living room to study for a test. After a while my wife came in and sat down next to me. She had taken her shower and she had on her robe, tied in the front. She said, ""Honey? I'm sorry."" +As she was saying this she had placed her hand on my shoulder. She went on. ""I was a little pushy,"" as she slides her hand to my chest while letting her breast rest against my arm. +Moving her hand down to my stomach, she continues, ""You're right, it is expensive."" +I have on a pair of sweats and she is now rubbing her hand back and forth over my pelvis saying, ""I did want to go but we can't afford it."" +Her voice is getting soft and alluring. She knows that the material under her innocent, moving hand is stimulating the head of my penis. That I'm going to get an erection. I always do. +She always wanted me in loose fitting clothing and she would always buy me loose fitting clothes. It took me a long time to realize that she used my clothing in this way, to stimulate my glans and arouse me. +She went on, ""It was nice of them to invite us,"" as she now moves her hand down onto my hardening member. Her fingers trace the outline of it through the material. Her voice gets very soft, almost like she's talking to a little boy. +She thinks to herself, ""How easy it is to stimulate a circumcised dick. With out that foreskin, they are so vulnerable."" +She continues, ""I think you would have had a good time with Jim."" +Sliding her hand into my pants. I feel her fingers slide down the shaft of my erection. How I love the feel of her hand. She begins lightly stroking it. +I answer her, ""Yea, I do get along with him."" +In her soft voice she says, ""Why don't you slip these off?"" +I slip my pants down and off. Then I slip my top off. I'm completely nude before her. I'm in her hands. +She says, ""Hand me that lotion,"" indicating to the hand lotion on the end table next to me. Where did that come from? It wasn't there before. +I say, ""No, no. Let me lay on you. Let me put it in you."" +I want to take control. I want her to lie down on the rug and let me push my hard erection into her. To make her the submissive and me the dominate male. She will have none of it. +""Not now. I just want to stroke you. I want to feel you in my hand. You know you like me to stroke it. Now give me the lotion."" +She twists her hand around the mushroom head and I feel her fingertip massaging my ""F"" spot. The pleasure is so intense that I succumb to her hand. +I hand her the lotion and watch as she pours some into her hand. She continues talking to me, telling me what a good husband I am and how much she loves me. She now has my complete, undivided attention. +I feel the sensations of the cool lube as she smoothes it over the head. She takes her time as she strokes me and tells me how she really wants to go. She wants to hear me say the word yes. +She knows all to well of how to stroke me, slow and firm. She keeps talking while she is looking into my eyes, timing her strokes to the rhythm of her words. She feels my cock getting hotter, sees my face revealing that I'm getting close. My body begins to convulse. She knows that I'm on the edge. She pauses, stops her strokes and just holds the head of my cock in her fingertips. Like she is holding a ball that she is about to drop. +She asks me again, ""Can we go"" and she's waiting to hear the word, yes. +I lay there, all tensed up, feeling the head of my cock pulsing in her fingertips. I want to feel her hand stroke down my shaft and give me release. I'm shaking. She's looking into my eyes. +I whisper to to her, ""You have me by the balls."" +""No...I have you by your dick."" +She knows what she wants and she is not giving in, not giving me what I need. I need her hand to move. I try to push my cock up into her hand but it's no use. My eyes plead to her that I can't take any more and then I moan the word, ""Yes."" +Her face takes on a look of satisfaction as she rewards me by resuming her strokes. I begin ejaculating into her cupped hand. My body stiffens, my legs kick, I twist and gasp as she continues milking it all out of me. +It becomes too sensitive for me and I have a hard time trying to get her to stop. When she finally releases my penis, it is a small, shrunken and shriveled membrane, covered in oil and my semen. +She looks at it and she is pleased. I'm embarrassed of it. It lies to one side. She hooks her finger under it and flicks it over. She thinks to herself, ""It's dead. I did a good job on it. It'll be dead for days."" +I lay there, I feel like a little boy who made a mess. Ashamed, embarrassed and inadequate, I apologize, ""I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I didn't do anything for you. I didn't make you cum. I didn't gratify you."" +""It's OK. It's OK, don't worry about me. I get my gratification knowing that I made you cum."" +She gets up and goes into the kitchen to wash her hands. My semen on her hands, always gives her a feeling of pride and satisfaction, like a doctor who has just successfully completed a procedure. +I feel like each time she strokes me, she mentally castrates me and it takes me a few days to a week to recover. +After she dries her hands, she unties her robe and lets it fall open. Then she walks back into the living room. +She thinks to herself, ""Let him get a glimpse of my body. I want him to remember what he missed getting and what he can't get now. I am not going to let him fuck me anytime he wants. He can only fuck me when I want him to. I took good care of his little dickie and he won't be able to get it up for a few days. That's just the effect my hand jobs have on him."" +End + +" +254,Hands Free Orgasm,PrincessErin,How To,2008-10-14,2008-10-14,2022-01-04 08:29:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/hands-free-orgasm,Masturbation techniques for women.,"['Female Masturbation', 'Masturbation']",4.33,"I'm not the type to go around talking to my friends about sex. Maybe it's the fact that my only ex-boyfriend broke my heart to date and marry my best friend. In any case, I keep quiet when it comes to talking about sex. It was only when I started chatting on this site that I realized I could be open about my sexuality and about sex in general. +For as long as I can remember, I have been able to do something that not very many women can do. I am able to orgasm without touching myself. It is a very useful skill I might add. I can masturbate while typing or driving. I have done both although I would not suggest doing it while driving on the highway. Being able to type and masturbate at the same time is very useful when you cyber, however, it is difficult to convince your partner that you are indeed able to do both. Many men have gotten angry with me thinking I'm some creepy man pretending to be a woman. In any case, I digress. +Every woman is different when it comes to masturbation. For those women who haven't ever tried this, you have nothing to lose. Describing how I am able to do this will, hopefully, help others who are interested in learning. +It doesn't matter at all what I am wearing. I can wear a skirt, jeans, or nothing at all. I have found that wearing tight jeans helps how fast I orgasm, but that might be in part due to how aroused I am before beginning. Wearing tight jeans already puts pressure on my pussy and clit, which is really what causes me to have these types of orgasms. +I have to be lying down on my back or leaning back in a chair. If I'm on my back, I normally lay back on a few pillows. If I'm in a chair I lean back not so much that I'm lounging, but enough that I can squeeze my legs together tightly. Once I'm in that position, I need to either cross my arms over my lower abdomen or squeeze my abdominal muscles tightly. Once I have begun, I slide my thighs together. +I will do this for a few minutes, squeezing and then letting go of my thighs. Each time I squeeze I will grind my hips in circles. It puts more pressure on my clit and feels very good. I can feel the sensations throughout my whole body. While I'm doing that, I feel my legs begin to shake. Sometimes I will grind up and down, almost like I'm doing leg lifts. +If I want to tease myself, I will stop and try not to keep my legs together. Sometimes I can do that, but other times I need to keep my legs together. By this time, I can feel how wet my pussy is and if I'm only wearing panties I can feel my inner thighs wet as well. +As I get more aroused, I will squeeze my thighs together tighter and put more pressure on my lower abdomen. I will squeeze very tight and feel my orgasm getting close. At this point, I'll be biting my lip and trying to look innocent even though I'm squirming around a lot. Luckily, I can stay quiet when I orgasm. +As I orgasm, I keep my thighs tight together and grind my hips. A wave of pleasure sweeps over my body and my legs will shake. I'll be breathing very hard and sometimes will need to close my eyes. My pussy will feel like it is throbbing and I'm sure it is. I will not be able to open my legs since my muscles will be very tense. +After I orgasm, I will sit up straight and keep my legs apart. I get very sensitive after I climax and therefore can't have anything touching my clit or pussy. My face will be red and I will try to stop my legs from shaking. After a few minutes, I will be back to normal. +I can do this a few times in a row and of course, like most women, the more I orgasm, the easier it is to climax. Each time I do this, I don't change the method that much. Depending on my level of arousal it will sometimes take a few minutes to orgasm while at other times it might take longer. +As I said before, this is just my personal experience and description of how to do this type of masturbation.

Very personal. I have written this as sound advice for anyone who may be interested, but primarily females who may be getting to grips with the male member for the first time, or just those looking to broaden their knowledge and skills. Yes, the penis can be daunting for the uninitiated, but I love to share and to help, and so here I am. +One of the main points I can make is that every man is different, we all react to slightly different stimuli, and so what works for one man may not quite work for another. The main penile response is a little more subtle and complex than first appears. In this porn is both a blessing a curse. The classic scenario we have probably all seen of the female pornstar vigorously rubbing the shaft up and down may look good, but in my experience it is of limited value. I will say outright that most if not all of my previous female lovers have had initially poor handwork skills until I showed them how to do it. Unfortunately rubbing too hard, too vigorously and too fast is counter- productive and may be painful to your male partner unless you approach things a little more carefully. +As I said, porn is fortunately a blessing a well as there is plenty of amateur male masturbation material out there. Simply watch how men like to pleasure themselves, and compare several sources from either internet porn or other anecdotal sources so that you have a good idea of what you are doing and can feel much more confident about your manual skills. I am writing this because I want to help you as reader and help you enjoy your erotic life still more! +Communication is key of course, you and your man should be as relaxed, unhurried and emotionally intimate as you possibly can be. In fact, don't start your lovemaking or handwork session until you are both in that place, it's really important. Don't hurry, as this can be really counter-productive. The response of your male partner may vary hugely according to how relaxed he is, the immediate physical circumstances such as room temperature, and his age, degree of physical fitness and virility. However, we men are good at giving out non-verbal signals when becoming aroused, all you have to do is to latch on to and respond to them. If something doesn't quite work, then try subtle variations as you are probably closer to the mark than you think. Smiles. +So on to the main course, I will now tell you about some sure fire male masturbation techniques which in my experience as a man will always work. Use lube where you can, but pre-cum can also be effective once you are beyond first base. Warm, soft hands are very helpful, and you should ensure that your fingernails are in good state too. Long, well-manicured nails can be very effective for a specific grazing stimulation, though they should never be too sharp. Those long, well-manicured and elegant nails are also a fetish which appeals to a lot of men. +Your first job will to make your man hard, and this is best done by varying light and heavier caresses using a combination of thumb and second and third finger pressure points. Caress, stroke, glide your thumb and fingertips across the shaft in multiple directions. Experiment, and see what works for him. Resist the temptation to take the shaft between thumb and forefinger in order to stroke the whole shaft too quickly, and let your man's erection grow naturally. The combination of lube and those soft warm hands should do the trick. This is really where you can experiment and give your man a lot of pleasure. This fingertip masturbation is all about the degree and angle and speed of pressure that you apply. +As you progress, that fingertip pressure should become more continuous, more firm. Through your fingertips you will feel the vibrational sensations you are creating in his shaft. The longer the continuous sensation, the more pleasurable it will be for him. I personally am very responsive to a slow firm circular movement using the thumb and the second and third forefingers on that pressure point just below the head. For those not in the know, this is always the most sensitive area of the cock, and where you can give considerable pleasure as that pressure stimulation will be travelling right up and down his shaft and he will absolutely love it. There are other areas of the shaft where this technique also work, and a side to side caressing motion across the underside of the shaft can be very good also, but this is the one where you will masturbate your man the most efficiently. You can do something similar on the glans or head of the cock, but do bear in mind that your lover's skin is particularly sensitive there. +If giving manual stimulation to the glans then definitely use the lube and soft hands technique, as you can cause some discomfort if you are clumsy. Forming a cap using the palm of your hand over the head of the cock is highly pleasurable, especially if you use a slow corkscrew stimulation movement. Given its sensitivity, the head of the penis is also extremely susceptible to oral stimulation, but that is a whole different topic of conversation. +Do check in with your partner very regularly, ask him how things are going, and check with him if you are doing ok or need to make any adjustments, especially if you are learning your craft. You can mix things up too, revert to mouth on mouth or whole body kissing if you feel the need. Only when you feel that your man is quite hard should you take things on to the next stage. This would be an ideal opportunity to slip on a cock ring or condom and to move on to vaginal intercourse, but if you want to continue down the hand work route then you will probably need to change position. +I personally like to receive handwork laid down on the bed with my partner laid next to me, but there are variants. I do like to have my girlfriend sitting astride me, perhaps facing away but facing me can also be very good for the intimacy and eroticism which eye contact bring. Dirty talk, and lots of it, is a sure fire winner so express yourself with as much verve and confidence as you can muster. I personally need 10 - 15 minutes of unhurried masturbation to get to this stage of really being fully erect and possibly quite close to orgasm. Where you want to take things from here is very much up to you, given the choice I like about 30 minutes of masturbation before I feel I really can't hold back any longer, but you may be pressed for time. From here, the most effective masturbation technique is to take the base of the shaft in your weaker hand, reasonably firmly to prevent sperm entering the shaft before you are both ready for him to climax. With your stronger hand you are then able to perform the main masturbation, and this should be in the form of long, slow strokes the full length of the shaft. +This is where you can really go to town, again don't rush, experiment and get a sense of what he really likes, a multitude of verbal and oral indicators will give you a clear sense of how things are going. Your thumb and forefinger should form a relatively loose ring around his shaft, though you may need to adjust a little as you go along. The classic mistakes are to grip too hard and to stroke too fast, and again the plethora of porn films are very misleading in this area. I would say that one full stroke every one to two seconds is about right, but always check in to see if the speed is OK for him. Communicate communicate communicate and you can't go wrong. +This form of handwork is also very erotic because your man is giving you complete control, so make use of it to experiment and to express yourself sexually. It also lends itself perfectly to bondage, have your man tied up on the bed before you really go to work on him and you can wreak havoc on his erotic sensibilities through the pleasure you are giving him. As an added twist, gag your man with your panties while you bring off manually, this works for me every time. +I have recently discovered the joys of using a small 8 inch vibrator on my shaft also. Jeez what have I been missing out on ladies? A year or two ago I experimented with my partner's rather old-fashioned mains powered vibrator, it wasn't too bad but the vibrations were a little too heavy and powerful. I absolutely love the smaller chargeable model I have got myself though. By no means should they be restricted to the vagina and clitoris as they can also give a man considerable pleasure! Again, it doesn't have to be too strong a pressure, you can produce very stimulating effects by changing the length of time, point and degree of pressure, very similar to the techniques I have described above. As the stimulation is so powerful, especially when skilfully applied, you can make your man climax this way pretty quickly should you choose to do so. A sustained pressure of more than a few seconds can have this effect unless you are careful, so this is excellent for edging. Of course the closer you bring your man to orgasm through edging the less room for manoeuvre you will have, so it will take ever-increasing amounts of skill to keep him just below that tipping point. Of course, the more you practise the better you will get, and this applies to all the other wonderful lovemaking techniques too. +Orgasm. When you are both ready then you should finish your lover off with firm, steady, unhurried strokes. It really should feel like a milking action, steadiness of rhythm is really important at this point. Quite apart from producing the most pleasurable and fulfilling orgasms, once he realises that you have got him exactly where you want him, and you are about to bring him over the edge with these steady, unhurried movements and that there is absolutely nothing he can do about it, this will be pretty mind-blowing for him. It is also very trusting and intimate, for me exactly the right kind of intimacy that all the best lovemaking should be about. +A couple of really important and often overlooked points: don't stop the hand stimulation too soon! Keep that steady milking motion going for as long as you need to, and definitely until you are sure he is quite spent, otherwise much of the delicious effect of that orgasmic release will be lost. Once your lover is completely spent and the cock quite limp you should then steadily but not suddenly withdraw the manual stimulation, as the penis is extremely sensitive post orgasm. This is also where your man is, in any situation, most vulnerable, and think about gentle, loving and sensitive ways to bring him down to earth. +You should get very comfortable and familiar with the process of your man's climax. It is just a matter of getting used to it, engaging with it and enjoying the process. It is an incredibly intimate moment when handled with due skill and sensitivity, so enjoy that intimacy! Become familiar with the sight and taste and odour of cum, and take as much pleasure in his orgasm as much as you would your own. It is a precious fluid, unique to your man, to be tasted, licked up, swallowed and rubbed in. By all means it can appear strange and unusual at first, and every woman has her own tastes and sensibilities, but there is really nothing around the male orgasm that you should feel in any way uncertain of or uncomfortable with. +Of course the more you practise and the more you become experienced, the easier all of this becomes. I personally like to ejaculate for my partner and I definitely have an exhibitionist streak in me, all part of showing off my virility and ability to cum copiously which is actually really important to a man. However, it means so much more to know that my partner is willingly engaging with me and as relaxed and confident with the situation as I am. +Well, I hope that my words do some good somewhere. I am always happy to answer any further questions, as really I just want to help new and developing lovers in particular. Keep safe, healthy and happy." +256,Happy Endings,istanbulnoir,How To,2007-11-17,2007-11-17,2022-01-04 08:29:22,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/happy-endings-2,...and why it's good to avoid them.,"['Character', 'Description', 'Detail', 'Happy Endings', 'Story', 'Swinging', 'Writing Advice']",3.38,"Stories have happy endings. They also have snappy opening lines, the introduction of some characters, a crisis and it resolution and then the happy ending. If that sounds like a recipe for a soap opera, then that is because it is one. I also imagine that this is the kind of thing that gets taught in creative writing classes, which is why I have always avoided them like the plague. +The 'My Lady Grotesque' series that I have contributed to Literotica and which I may come back to with more episodes, has received almost entirely positive responses, mostly from male readers I suspect (some of them are anonymous and anonymous never discloses his/her gender), for they are very male point of view stories. +They have little in the way of story. All I do is put them together and leave them to get on with it. The focus is overwhelmingly on the erotic activities that the characters indulge in. In each story, I introduce a new character and let them get down to it with 'Lady' and 'The Adventurer.' I say 'characters', but they are all completely one dimensional, and I wrote them like that deliberately. The flatness of the characters was deliberate, because I wanted to focus on two characters, and a few others, purely in terms of their erotic adventures together. +The stories are about their erotic adventuring and describe in detail their sexual activities, and the more off the mainstream, the more I enjoyed writing the detailed descriptions. And it is in describing the sex that you can be inventive with language and image, but don't go too far. There is no subject on earth about which it is so easy to write badly. I once saw Anthony Burgess in a TV interview, talking about D. H. Lawrence, and Burgess argued that no one has been able to describe orgasm. I agree with him. The best word for it is 'come' and everyone knows what that feels like. +At the same time, I hope that the lingering descriptions of their bodies and parts of their bodies and what they are doing with them reflect on the characters, because they are concerned with every detail of what they do, because they are first and foremost erotic aesthetes, for whom sex is spectacle and display; pleasure without responsibility. And as such, they are people who are very aware of their own bodies and the body's potential for pleasure. +This is why story and other detail are kept to a minimum. It does not matter what kind of car 'Lady' drives, or whether she prefers tea or coffee with her breakfast. It does not matter what job 'The Adventurer' does. That they desire each other is never directly explained; they just do; and enough of the why of it comes out in the stories. They exist only in as much as they have sex with each other and they share a common pursuit of erotic adventuring and experimentation. There is nothing those two and their friends would not do in search of the next great experience. +Where did the characters come from? 'The Adventurer' is a version of myself; as I once was, for a while, though of course a very partial and incomplete version. 'Lady' is based on a woman I saw at a cinema shortly before I wrote the first of the stories. In that woman at the cinema a great many fantasies and memories of past experiences of mine coalesced with present desire and I wished that I could have approached her and picked her up; and she was there for the taking, but I am attached now and those adventuring days are over. And what I was unable to have, I wrote about instead. +At the same time, she is also all of the mature and overdone women I have ever seen. To me there is something glorious about them, in their refusal to be old, and at the same time something sad in the acceptance Lady has of getting old and the knowledge of what beautiful things she is losing; most of all herself. Sex is life-affirming, and she does it to remind herself that she is still alive. The knowledge and the acceptance are the dark underside of the stories and all good stories need that darkness, or at least a hint towards it, to give them substance and reality. +One thing that was striking about the feedback I received for those stories was that no one thought it a strange or perverted taste to find a woman of advanced years, who dressed and behaved like a decadent seventeen year old, erotically exciting and highly desirable; as 'The Adventurer' does. And that is encouraging, because it underlines the point that media stereotypes of beauty and sexiness are not what a great many people find either beautiful or sexy. One commenter even said that readers should not expect a 60 year old woman to be lithe and toned from decades in the gym and look 50. That is exactly what I meant. The great part of Lady's desirability is in the attitude she has to her decaying body. +Before I move on, I will make one more remark about the characters in my 'Lady' stories. The spirit of them and the scenarios are based on swinging experiences I had ten or twelve or so years ago with a number of middle aged and late middle aged couples. What interested me about these people, who were all very nice and very 'normal' and well adjusted was how relaxed an attitude they had to sex and swinging. They could handle it and they were mostly experienced at it, and the fact that they were so relaxed about it was because they had faced up to the reasons within themselves why they wanted to do it; and they had been honest with themselves. And I quickly learned that I enjoyed having sex with women twenty or thirty years older than I was then and I even found it comfortable for their husbands to be watching or joining in. +Sex can be cathartic and liberating, but it is never only those things. Again, the darker underside should be at least implied through allusion or the refusal of happy and too easy closure. The only closure is death, and of course, sex and death are close relations. If you don't believe me, read Freud, read Bataille. +My 'An Unexpected Meeting' stories are based on one situation I was in and a couple I knew as swinging partners, though they were not in fact my neighbours, and I never knew them before, during or after our swinging encounters, other than as a late fifties couple who I met at a nudist club and had sex with the wife while her husband watched, took photographs and sometimes joined in. And it was a very happy set up, while it lasted. But there is also a darker underside to breaking boundaries and taboos, and swingers negotiate with those; sometimes successfully, sometimes not. The people I met had done it successfully and were having a lot of fun that they could handle. +The story I have written for this site that I like most is 'Leggy Lola', because I think it raises an issue that is 'problematic'; the sexualities of disabled people, and the ethics of desiring them as that affects able bodied people who find amputees erotically exciting; as do the men Lola has sex with in her role as an escort. And I also think it succeeds in raising that issue without being didactic or preachy. I chose an ambiguous ending, with Lola saying something about her 'relationship' with Stephen that is ultimately evasive, and I thus avoided a happy ending. I also avoided getting too deeply into the ethics of the situation, and I was surprised that no one who read the story picked up on that. I'm not sure if I'm pleased or disappointed that no one has. +The story of Lola came from two different story ideas. I wanted to write a story about a disabled woman and her dealing with the relationship between her sexuality and her disability, and I also wanted to write a story about a prostitute. I could not find what I thought was an interesting way of writing either of them, until one day I suddenly had the idea of combining them. The interest in writing a story about a prostitute came from my own interest in prostitutes, and the idea to write a story about an amputee woman came from seeing pornographic images of amputee women on a website. What struck me about those images was that if a woman is attractive, limbs or no limbs; she is attractive, but at the same time it is impossible to ignore that fact that she is an amputee. And I wondered why can't that in some way be erotically interesting? +The story I least like among my contributions to Literotica is 'Late Spring Interlude.' I dislike it because it is dishonest. I wrote it to appeal to as wide a number of readers as possible, and it worked. It is thus calculated and not seeking to identify or explore something that I think is interesting about erotic life and erotic possibilities. The only vaguely redeeming feature of 'Late Spring Interlude' in my eyes is that it has an ambiguous ending. The rest of it is formulaic and manipulative trash. It remains one of my highest scoring stories in the voting. I am very glad that it is not the highest. +I have one happy ending story that I like: 'Every Woman is Desirable.' I knew that if a made a half decent job of writing it, it would get a good response; and from larger ladies and those who love them. What makes it different from 'Late Spring Interlude' is that it is honest. It is based on a real experience of my own, though adapted to the needs of the story, and the climatic scene is something I did, to the surprise and delight of the lovely lady with whom I shared that experience. That story has a happy ending because that is the ending that naturally follows the story that comes before it. +The types of stories I like to read on Literotica are the less self- consciously 'writerly' ones. I much prefer and I am much more aroused by, stories that get to the (erotic) point as quickly as the story in question allows, and I always enjoy rawness in the writing more than the studied and the rule-following. Snappy opening lines, a few stereotypical characters and a crisis and a cheap and easy resolution soap opera plot with a bit of sex thrown in to justify posting the piece to an erotic fiction site turns me off completely. Save that for the creative writing class, or better still, write non-erotic fiction. A story does not have to have a plot (see Joyce's Ulysses), characters do not have to have great depth (see the complete novels of Charles Dickens), and stories do not have to have happy endings (see Anna Karenina); and especially not easy, unearned and sentimental ones. However, if you want to win competitions, stick to the creative writing class formulas. +Write for yourself, above all, and some readers will like what you write, and what they will like most about what you write, is its honesty, and its refusal to pull the usual levers to get the cheap and easy effects. And write the way you want to: the story will tell you how it wants to be written, so listen to the voice in your head telling you. +So what I am asking for in erotic writing? Make it real; though that does not mean that it has to be based on experience. None of my stories is a straight narrative of something that actually happened, though all of them have their origin in something I have done or someone I have met or something I have desired. +Never include any storyline or even any tiny detail that is not in some way contributing to an 'explanation' why the people in the story are having sexual relations with each other. +Remember that happy situations and troubled situations with easy and unconvincing happy endings don't make for good story material. Where is the problem? Where is the tension? Where are the questions? Ask yourself a simple and at the same time very difficult question: what is sex about? +What should be in a story? Well, obviously, some kind of erotic situation or a series of erotic situations. Beyond that, there should be nothing that is not contributing to the centre piece of the story, which is the sex. In choosing place, make the place say something about the characters and the kind of sex that they have and why they are having it. Only introduce a plot line if it leads up to the sex and in some way throws light on why the sex is being had. +Avoid at all costs a storyline that is really no more than a vehicle for sex scenes. The story needs to carry the sex, but it needs to be closely related with it. Everything that happens in the story, everything that the characters say, think and do, should be explaining enough of who they are and what they are, to explain why they are having sex with each other. +Equally, every detail should be doing its work and earning its keep; if it isn't, cross it out. I give an example from one of my 'Lady' stories. Lady lives in villa on the outskirts of some unspecified city somewhere. I have no idea which city, and it doesn't matter. All that is disclosed about the villa is that it is expensively decorated. This Lady is wealthy. In the third or fourth story, I can't remember which; I decided that some description of the living room, where almost all of the sex takes places, would be a good idea. They always do it on the sofa, this being the living room, so the sofa was the thing to describe. It was the central object of the scene. How should the sofa be? It's obvious; it should have leopard skin covers, for what other style would a lady like her favour? +Once I had introduced that detail, and thereby revealing a little more of Lady's character, through her tastes in interior décor, I had to do something else with it, so she tells the Adventurer that many of her friends have leaked cum on that sofa and invites him to cum on it, which he does, with her assistance. None of this is at all profound, but pulls things together and gives the story unity. Showing and telling, as they say. It would have been far less effective to have just said of Lady; here's an older woman who really should know better, and whose is herself as tacky and cheap as a leopard skin sofa. And to me at last, what redeems her is that she knows this about herself, and she embraces absolutely her voracious and often outlandish erotic appetites and lives them all. +Most of all, remember that sex is never only about sex. Let's use the 'Loving Wives' MMF threesome example, as it seems to be a theme that upsets some readers. A couple decide that they want to introduce a third person into their erotic life; a man. Why do they want to do that? Is it the man or the woman who suggests it first? How does their partner react initially? +Let's say it's the woman and her husband is not keen. How is he going to feel? Jealous, most probably? Why would his wife want another man? Why would she want two men at once? How come he has never before suspected that she harboured such desires? Why did she hide them? Why has she felt bold enough now to raise the idea? How are they going to get from this impasse to a situation where it happens? And after they have, what effect will it have had? And in resolving the story, if the ending is to be that it 'helped' their marriage in some way, which it could, then the ending needs to show why. +Or try the opposite scenario, in which the husband suggests it. Why does he want to watch another man fucking his wife? Personally I wouldn't! And I say that as someone who has had sex with other men's wives while they watched. Why was I happy to do that, but would not want to watch my wife with another man? Well, that's another story, which would focus on the psychology and motivations of the third man. Freud would say it was the unconscious desire to re-live the moment when you first became aware that your parents have an erotic life. But let's keep Freud out of it; or let's not, because Uncle Sigmund is always very much present on the Literotica site; just look at he number of submissions to the 'Incest/Taboo' category, and take note of their popularity too. +Would our imaginary husband want to simply watch his wife with another man, or would he want to join in too. Would he want to have sex with the man too? And here's the question that interests me most; what would the wife think about her husband's desire to watch her with another man? Would it make her feel powerful; would she find it strange or even distasteful? +And afterwards, what would they have learned about themselves, inwardly; and what would they guess about each other's private thoughts about what they had done? Speculation on that would make for a more interesting ending than some banal remarks about how marriage affirming it all was. Swinging is an exciting game for those who wish to play it, but part of the excitement is in the risks and dangers of where it might go and what one might learn about one self and one's partner from it. +It's much more interesting to end with a scene that shows that whilst both partners find some fulfilment in the experience, they also found that it asked them questions that they did not have simple or untroubling answers to; and which lead them to further revelations about themselves that might lead them to question things more. The solving of a 'problem' does not mean that we all live happily ever after; it means we find ourselves in a new situation where new problems arise and ask new questions of us. +Erotic desire can take us sometimes to places and states that we don't feel comfortable with, and which may be disturbing, but as long as we are desiring things that it is not illegal to desire, the best think to do is think it through and then if we still want to, live that experience. Sex and sexuality are at the centre of what we are as human beings, and a good story takes us to that, rather than offering some cheap and banal escapist fantasy. +So; happy endings? Domestic sex is fine; a husband and wife, just the two of them can have an erotic life that is about their love for each other, and that can be a fascinating topic for erotic fiction, but avoid, avoid, avoid domesticated sex: sex is simple, sex is complicated; sex is consoling, sex is frightening; sex is challenging, sex is affirming; sex is reassuring, sex is dangerous; but don't make it boring by not explaining in a story what it is about for the people in the story, and don't tack on an unearned happy ending. You will make your readers think more if you don't. A good piece of erotic writing challenges the mind, as well as stimulating the senses. After all, don't they say that the mind is the most powerful of all sexual organs? And moreover, without it there would not be any erotic fiction." +257,Hard Hats,MSTarot,How To,2014-06-02,2014-06-04,2022-01-04 08:29:22,3,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/hard-hats,1. an accurate description of construction workers in stories 2.

Yeah you! I want you to come sit on my face!"" +Wolf whistles, cat calls and all other manner of Hollywood level stereotyping are the common perceptions of the modern construction worker. The classic image of a sexy woman walking past a work site and everything stops and then she is getting whistled at and having rude suggestions yelled at her is show often in cinema and in stories. +Does this happen? Today? +Not very often. You see there are now all kinds of legal ways to sue the hell out of the guy for doing that, and even if you don't do that a simple phone call to the site's general contractor (number is on the big sign in clear sight) will absolutely get that worker fired off, not only that job, but any job that general contractor works for the next year. +If it is a school, college, or hospital job that ban is for life. He will never work for that company again. +But yet that image of the rude hardhat yelling at the girls is so often shown that it's silly. +More than that, it's insulting! +As someone that has worked the construction trade I have seen, and heard shit that would make a sailor blush. The bit of dialog above was yelled by a guy I was working with to a girl walking past the job we were on. We were building a small church. The year was 1987 and I have to say that was just about the last time I ever heard that kind of thing yelled. +The problem with stereotypes is they while they do have some basis in fact, maybe the past or in some other place. It's not the here. Not the now. +Now? Well, if you are a woman and you are dressed to the nines and you walk past a construction site what can you expect? +To be looked at. Yes, you will be looked at. Count on it. +Why? Why are those dirty nasty men so rude as to stare at the women walking past? +Because you are without a doubt the most beautiful sight to touch our eyes during those long hours. We spend eight hours plus looking at other sweaty, dirty men, having to deal with pissy people that think they know what needs done. We are in a constant state of being rushed, in a very dangerous place to be rushed. Most of the time we arrive on the job to be told we are three months behind on our first day there. +Why? Because the general contractor was held up by changes, delays, weather, and ""unforeseeable"" problems that affect every job but are never made allowances for in the job schedule. +The superintendent has a headache due to the fact the architect is pushing him. He passes that headache down the line... all the way to the poor guy trying to earn a living doing a job that sucks pond water, but pays the bills. +Mostly. +So there he is, standing there with a dozen people above him making his life miserable and when he looks up what does he see? A beautiful woman. +He doesn't know who you are. He doesn't know your life story. He doesn't know about your college degree, that you have thousands owed in student loans or that you have two kids at home and a husband that wont cut the grass. All he knows, in that brief look, is that you are the best thing his eyes have seen in what has been an otherwise typically crappy day. +So he looks. He enjoys the movement of those curves and hips your husband complains about. He doesn't think your getting too fat, he thinks you look great in those tight pants. His eyes will devour you like a starving wolf because he is just that. His mind is starved for anything that isn't the same 'shit' he sees day after day. +Masons, electricians, carpenters, drywallers, roofers, plumbers, and all the pricks in business suits and shiny new hardhats that are making his life miserable. That is his day to day view of life. +Safety men telling us not to do this and to stop doing that. Treating us like we are three year old kids at the top of a set of steps. +Foremen telling us we only have 15:00 minutes to take a break and to not leave our work area to take it. Then his pain in the ass is standing there with a watch glued to his eyeball daring you to be a second late at lunch. +Oh yeah, hardhat lunch time that classic visual cliché. +Seen in hundreds of movies going back to the times of silent pictures. What's that lunch really like? Well you have only 30:00 minutes to eat your food. A cold sandwich or (if you're lucky to have a wife that loves you or time enough to do it yourself,) a bowl of leftovers from the night before, heated in a microwave someone brought to the site that only half works and has nine guys are waiting to use. Chug down a soda, stuff a Little Debbie cake past your teeth and it's back to work. +""Take fifteen, call it twenty, wish it was thirty."" is a very true saying. +Oh yeah and they want you to go use the port-o-let in that time too. +(I wont even go into the constant state of filth that is a port-o-let on a construction site.) +Now live that, day after day, for about a year in the same place with the same faces, day after day, and does it surprise you at all that that guy will look up at you as you are walking past? +You're a new face... although I will be honest, he's not looking at your face. For those few moments when you are walking past you are the girl of his dreams, you are his fantasy. +You. +You, who looking in the mirror think you look terrible. You, whose husband nags you to lose a few pounds. You are a fantasy, a daydream in the mind of a tired person who has too much to do and not enough time to get it done. But he will stop... stop and stare at... you. +True, if you could read his mind you would probably want to slap him. But the fact is you will never be payed a more honest compliment. +He will make half hidden motions to others around him to look at you. Drawing their attention to you as well. It's no longer the line of guys stopped staring at a girl's ass as she walks past. It's now almost one at a time, guy after guy checking you out, then sharing a grin with the others they are stuck working around. +Soft whispers have replaced the vulgar shouts of the past. No less vulgar in some cases, mostly comments about your ass, your breasts, your legs, your face. The visible. The easily commented on. +Oh, I can hear your mind. ""Well, it's still rude."" +Is it rude to go into a museum and stare in wonder at the art work of the great masters? You, are no less than a Picasso, a Rembrandt, a modern day living, breath, beautiful painted Da Vinci. In all your glory you are presented to that hardhat wearing man. +And that is an important part, as well. Man. (Yes, there are women in the work place, I've worked around more than a few. Guess what, they look at the sexy guys walking past. Well, some of them do.) He is in the end nothing more than that. Just a man. He probably is a father as well. A hard working, bill paying, birthday forgetting man. He smells of sweat, dirt, grease, exhaust fumes, and whatever part of the job his trade is working on. +Just a man there doing a job. +A hard job, no exception. A important job? Damn right it is! The house you live in, the building you work in, the school your children attend, and the hospital that saves your husbands life. They were all build by that tired, smelly, dirty minded man who just for a few moment of his long day wanted to take a moment and look at your ass. Maybe he grinned over the idea of what he would like to do with you in that little day dream fantasy where you are all soft and willing. +For a moment he forgot about that asshole foreman who is rushing him to get finished and is then going to forget to turn in his time right. He forgot about the stupid architect that can't figure out that just because it works on paper doesn't mean shit. He stopped worrying about the power bill his check wont cover this week or if his truck will get reposed before he can't get a payment in... because he had to make the mortgage payment. +He stopped worrying about all of that because of you. You! +His kids are sick with the flu, his wife want to buy all of Walmart, his brother wants to borrow money, his mother wants him to call her more often and his dad needs him to come over and cut the grass Saturday cause he hurt his back and can't do it. +His high school dreams of being a sports superstar are long gone. He's looking at thirty to forty more years of this same day, till he can get Social Security. At the same time he sees the older guys he first worked worked with dieing off within just couple of years of drawing their first S.S. check. He knows that is most likely his fate as well. +He hurts, he lives in near constant pain, he is exhausted in every way possible... mental, emotional, and certainly physically. He is cold, or he is hot depending on the weather. He is just fucking fed up with the whole damn job, but is worried sick he might get laid off. His daughter need new braces. His son want a bike for Christmas. He want to get his wife a nice piece of jewelry for their anniversary. To maybe try and make up for the one he had to work out of town on last year. +This is the man that just stopped what he was doing to watch ""you"" walk past. +You probably should thank him for the compliment. +If you're a writer at least thank him by doing him justice when you write of him. Don't use tired cliches and research his job like you would any other profession you were writing about. +Who knows maybe next time when you are walking past a construction site and you catch him looking, hell if you're feeling flirty, give him a sexy grin. +You will make his day. + +" +258,Head For The Hills,tonyholt,How To,2007-07-09,2007-07-09,2022-01-04 08:29:27,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/head-for-the-hills,A blowjob odyssey.,"['Blowjob', 'Choking', 'Cum', 'Gagging', 'Head', 'Puking', 'Sucking', 'Swallowing']",3.67,"I had always had trouble taking a load of cum in my mouth. I couldn't stand the thought of swallowing, and trying to hold a guy's juice in my mouth left me choking and gagging. Sometimes a trace of puke would rise, and then I would have to let go of the cum, ""cum"" what may. The results were usually not pretty, so I avoided giving head. +My first male suck-off partner was always in a hurry to finish. He was also my first male partner, period, and the head I had gotten from women previously was pretty limited, so I was deep in the dark about head. I later discovered that what he was giving me was not a blowjob, but a hand job with his mouth atop my cock. +Then my sister-in-law died. My no-good younger brother had abandoned his family years ago, but I was still the beloved uncle to his two children, their favorite uncle. That's not saying much, because their other uncle, my sister- in-law's brother, was an even worse rotter than my own brother. After her family picked over her belongings and took what they wanted, a Water-Pik remained, so I inherited a Water-Pik. Never mind what happened to the children. That's another story. The important part of the story here is the goddamed Water-Pik, of all things! +When I first started using it, I had the same sensations of choking that I had had with cum. I practiced and practiced for months consciously closing the rear of my throat until I could almost always do it as needed. +Close enough! I was ready to give head!! At the time I had no idea how transcendently delicious, how euphorically transporting, a great blowjob could be for the guy giving it. I had gotten enough head to know that it feels pretty good to the guy on the receiving end, but what was in store for me as giver I could not then imagine. +I advertised my ""services"" in a few places on the web. +I didn't know what great head was. Words like ""sucking"" and ""blowjob"" are totally wrong. Head is not about sucking or blowing, but gentle caressing. It is truly making love to your guy's cock. It's his little friend, and it can be a great friend to you too. Taste it gently all over with the tip of your tongue. Let your lips go everywhere on it. Take the head and just a little of the shaft in your mouth, so your tongue can explore the ""band"" where they meet. Feel the delicious contrast between the hardness of his shaft and the sensitive, tender softness of his cockhead. +But I digress. Pardon me for getting carried away. Let's get back to the story. +I found out the hard way I don't like pencil dicks, by giving head to a fat guy with a dick so skinny I couldn't get my lips tight enough. Thickness matters. I am still trying to discover what minimum thickness I need, and I don't know how to do it except with a tape measure, and that seems kind of rude. ""Excuse me, I have to stop for a second while I get my tape measure out."" +Then I met the doctor. He showed me what head was about, by doing it right. It is not about finishing. It is about keeping your guy on the edge, driving him crazy, for as long as he can stand it. The doctor said he had once given head for an hour-and-a-half. +I recently gave my longest blowjob ever, one hour. I suppose that all those cute guys you see in the street, and can never have, get hour-long head routinely, but for me it was an unexpected delight. The guy's cock was so delicious, its size, shape, and color so perfect, its hardness so exceptional, that I had no desire for him to come. I just wanted to keep on feeling the hardness of his shaft and the softness of his cockhead with my lips and tongue, running my tongue around his band, licking his shaft up and down, licking his cockhead and rubbing it gently with my lips, nipping the side of his shaft gently with my teeth. He was uncut, so I was able to push his foreskin partially up over his cockhead and lick its edge, and push my tongue between his foreskin and cockhead. I think I remember pushing the foreskin up enough with my hand that I was able to nip on it with my teeth.

Its just my story and some of the things I do to get all the cock I want. +Each of us has to make that choice whether to have sex outside of the marriage. Only 2 choices: yes or no. But its your choice: What will it be Yes or No? +If its No, you have a choice of whether to continue reading this or click off and go to another story. If its Yes, by all means continue to read this story. +First a little about myself: I am a 42 year old woman living in the South. On my wedding day I was a 18 year old virgin with no sexual experience. Other than letting the boys kiss me, I did let some suck on my boobs. One even went as far as to finger my pussy. I gave some of my dates a hand job. In my hand I knew what a hard cock felt like. +My husband is 10 years older than me. He had been married once before and was divorced. He was patient with me and taught me everything about giving and taking during our love making. First he taught me how to fuck, in differ positions, how to give a BJ, although I never could swallow. He is a good pussy eater and I have had some good orgasms with him. I have never let him take me in the ass. He has a 7 inch cock that is 6 inches around, very thick. He knows how to use it to make me cum when we make love. +It had been 25 years and I had never had but one cock my husband's. I have a vibrator that has seen a lot of use. when we make love we each share our fantasies and how we would like to make some of them real. I had one that I had been thinking about making real for a lot of years. That was to be fucked by another man. +It all started right after another man had asked me to fuck. I said no!! But I begin to think about it some. I didn't want to hurt hubby or for him to find out that I had been thinking about getting fucked. Since that first time I have been asked probably about 8 times. Each time was no. +Being a mother with 3 teenagers, working a job, house work, kids practices, meetings, gave me little time for some extra sex. I didn't stop thinking about it, I had already made up my mind that the next man that asked me to fuck he was going to get to, and I would find the time to get it done. +That all changed when I found out hubby was cheating on me. I decided instead of a divorce, and all that goes with it, I decided that I would fuck other men.. I enjoy the game of meeting and fucking.. Now there are some things you must do if and when you decide to fuck. +You need to get some comdoms. I prefer the 6 or 12 pack size: extra large. The men say they are better and fit better. Every man that fucks me doesn't have to use a condom, I still like to feel him cum in me, and give my husband his cream pie. But, I choose who gets to wear one. +Hide them where you can get to them, but at the same time to keep others from finding them. I carry one in my billfold inside of my purse. When I go out, I usually wear jeans or shorts and I slip 1 or2 in the front pockets. I need them if I find a man or men that I want or get asked. I carry them wherever I go. I am always looking for a man to fuck me. +On a piece of paper write down the names of every man that has asked you to fuck. Find their telephones numbers, address , where they work, etc. Make another list of the men that you know for sure wants to fuck you. Make another list of men that are available to you: like the pest-x man, cable guy, telephone man, ups delivery man, men that come to your home to do repairs. This is your list of men that you can get to fuck you. +Don't change the way you are doing things, stick to your schedule or life style. You don't want to draw unwanted interest to you. You want men to fuck you, but you want to do it without others knowing. If you do, no one knows, except you and the man that gets in your pants. +I still attend all the meetings with the programs that my kids play in. This way if I can set it up to meet a man, I can tell the kids that I have a meeting to go tonight and no one expects anything. I have even told my husband that I have to go to night meetings where I work. Its so easy to get away for a few hours and get some cock. I found out that I have the time to fuck. +While I am on this subject: where to go to find and be around men. Places like the above paragraph, shopping, men that come to your house, out of town clubs, meetings, etc. If you want to fuck, you can find the men to fuck you. That's not a problem. +Never give them your home phone numbers. I wouldn't want a man to call my house and one of the kids answers and he blurt something out. They have my cell phone and email address and not the email address you gave to your family and friends. +The men that I fuck or want to fuck, I give them my new email address. Don't let the address pertain to anything about you. And don't give them your home mail box address, or street, unless you live outside of a small town like I do and some of the men that live in or near me and I have fucked know it already. +You can fuck in a small town. From the info I have gathered my husband has already fucked 6 or 7 married women. I have fucked some of their husbands. But they don't know it. +Where to fuck: I have fucked at home when I knew no one was around. In hotels, in front seat of pickup trucks in the woods, at drive-in theater, in their homes and apartments, in an office on the desk, on a exam table in a hospital, on the ground lying on a quilt, on the beach. +Blow jobs: If you don't give them, learn to give them. My experience has been that men want and expect them. Most men that receive a good blow job with keep you on their list to fuck. There's no better person to get the practice that you need in giving a BJ than your husband. I couldn't swallow cum, but I can now. I surprised him after I practiced on him and told him that I wanted him to cum in my mouth. He did and I swallowed all of it. Just like using condoms the same thing applies to giving blow jobs. Not every man that I meet gets one. He can fuck me with a condom but I want blow him. Protect your self, all they want is to fuck you, and carry condoms with you. +Try to look your best: Before I started fucking I was on weight watcher losing a few pounds a week. After I got another cock, I had a reason to keep with it and I started losing 3-5 pounds a week. I have lost a lot since then and still on the diet. Try wearing sexy clothes around your husband so when the times comes and you go out somewhere alone to a club or to meet a man to fuck and you are wearing a revealing top, he want expect anything. Show more tit around hubby and he will love you for it. +Have another really revealing top, change of clothes, panties, something to clean up with, and whatever you want in a small soft case in your vehicle. I drive a van and I have mine under the middle seat. Try to put it there after you find out that you will be meeting a man later that day or night. Then slip it into the house after you get back. I have left home wearing a top or blouse that showed some tit, but changed down the road into something that hardly showed my boobs at all. I don't wear panties until after I have been fucked and on my way home. +O the cream pie: My husband said he wanted some cream pie. He has got quite a few. Even though you have decided to fuck, you still need to make love to your husband. I do, about 2 to 3 times a week. We both have strong appetites for sex. On the night that he got his first cream pie, I left home, got fucked, came back home and we made love. He ate my pussy that night and made love to me and never knew there was a cream pie down there. In our dirty talk during our love making I tell him he has got his cream pie, but he doesn't believe me. That's fine with me, he is still getting them. They tell you to fuck and give them a cream pie, and when you do they don't believe you. My husband believed that I would never let another man get in my pants. +I fucked a man several times and he suggested that we get our spouses together to fuck. We met at his house and I brought hubby. He got to see me get another cock and I got to see him fuck this man's wife. We have repeated this 2 more times with another couple.. He knows now that I will fuck +I thought about getting another cock for a long time. I have even picked up the phone to call a man that I knew that wanted to fuck me. I knew he would fuck me. Then after I made the call, I would hang up. I call now and I don't hang up. I am so glad that I have been fucked by men other than my husband. When I started I said that I wanted to be fucked once a week I have been fucked at least once a week. Some weeks I get more. +Gang-bangs: Some may want them, some don't. I have been in 3 and enjoyed them all. One with 4 men, one with 6, and one with 10 men. I carried a pack of condoms with me and they used them. The last one my virgin ass was had. It was ok, and I have had it in my ass a few more times. My hubby is to thick for my ass.. +I did go out and buy me a black addresses book, I wrote first name, his email address, cell number, and phone number if he gave me one. By his name I put a star* every time we fucked. I just want to keep a record of the times I have been fucked. Of course this is just for me. +I make love to my husband, but I get fucked by other men. Cover your tracks, I have. +You have read my story and helpful tips. Now if you want to be fucked by another man, get in contact with some body that you know, don't wait around for him to ask. If you know he wants you, let him know you want his cock. Even if you have to call him. It could be awhile before he asks you. Give your new email address out to some men. Let the men know you want to be fucked. You can get all the cock you want, you just have to do some things to get it. +Now that you have read this, what are you going to do? Are you going to read some more stories, get very wet and hot. Then go to your bed room and get your vibrator and lie down on the bed and insert it into your pussy. And lay there thinking about what another cock would feel like. You may even be thinking about the man that you want. Then you built up to your orgasms. Have one followed by several more. Then get up and go about your work knowing that you really do need to have another man's cock. And you still do nothing about getting another cock. +You have read this story and you know that its time to do something about getting another cock. It would be easy to get the vibrator out and use it. For to long you have wanted to take the next step, you have thought about it, you know you need to while your hormones will let you. You are tired of reading about other married women getting cock. It makes you wet and horny every time you read stories of other wives getting some more cock. Now you have decided that its your time to play. Now that you have decided to fuck, find a man that you know will fuck you, call him, email him, or go to where he is and let him know. Then let him fuck you today. Get the first fuck over with and behind you. There's no use in doing all the things I have written here until after you have been fucked one time if not a couple of times. Then start to work on getting more cock. Remember: Fuck today. Your husband might even love the new You.

Those who have gone back into dating in recent years, for whatever reason, have probably found it's a whole new ball game. I wrote some suggestions last year under ""Miscues and Mistakes"" to help with some of the dating problems. After receiving a number of comments and other suggestions from the readers, I decided to reiterate some of those finding as well as adding new how to's to help the latest daters. +How to find someone to date: +To begin, we need to know some of the places to find someone willing to go out with us. This shouldn't be too hard to do. I might say, before I start that, most of my comments and helpful hints are mainly for the male gender, but some ladies might find some interesting facts as well. +Malls and movie houses can be a good place to meet people as well as the Laundromat and your local bars and lounges. A nicer way is if you are lucky enough to have friends to help you find that right person. If all else fails, you can go on-line and find a friend or nowadays we have rent-a-date escort services. If you can't find at least a hooker then you might as well stop reading now. I can't help you. Just buy your hand a beer and watch a porno movie. +Even though this is some serious stuff I'm explaining to you, we still might find a laugh or two. +How-to guide for kissing: +Kissing used to be easy, but not anymore. First, let's deal with braces. If your woman (this stuff is for adults) wears braces, be very careful and kiss her lips very softly. If you apply too much pressure, her lips will push against her gums and cut the hell out of the inside of her lips and your date will be over before it began. +If you both wear braces, you might stick to kissing on the cheek only. If you get caught in a big lip lock, you might get your braces locked together also. You won't even be able to make it to the hospital unless you get a friend to drive you there. Give kissing some serious thought before proceeding with braces. +Older people are now out in the dating game. If you have false teeth, you might watch your kissing also. Light pressure open-mouth kisses are acceptable. Do not under any circumstances try French or kissing using the tongue. Just picture this: your woman sticks her tongue in your mouth and your dentures come loose. Need I say more? +Another thing about kissing; especially open-mouth and giving tongue type kisses. You might want to consider where your date's mouth has been prior to the date with you. This could be a problem when using a dating service or prostitute. +How to disrobe your date: +Let's begin by me undressing my lover. I try to unbutton her blouse but the little button doesn't seem to come through the little slit like it's supposed to. Finally, I get it undone and see her breasts staring me in the face behind her bra. Here is the problem I found out last year. +I reach my hand behind her back while we are kissing, feeling for the clasp on her bra. Where the hell is the damn thing? I'm an ultra male; I don't want to have to ask her. Finally in a nice way, we unlock lips and she says, ""The clasp is in the front."" Then in a very faint voice I hear the word, ""Moron."" +I quickly undo the clasp and let these big babies bounce out. I want to pull her bra off but it gets tangled in her blouse. Now I have to pull them off together trying to get them off her shoulders in a loving way like they do on TV. +After getting feedback on the subject, I now know what to do and will pass it on to you. While kissing her when her blouse is still on, rub your finger along her bra line. If it's smooth all the way across then the clasp is in the front and you won't feel so stupid. If you feel it in the middle of her back while rubbing the bra line then, of course, it has a back clasp. You should remove her blouse before un-clasping her bra. +Next, I want to remove her jeans. I have now learned to tell my ladies to remove them before climbing on the bed; saves a lot of hassle, unless you're a specialist in removing a woman's clothing. I made the mistake a few times of trying to gently remove her jeans while she is lying on the bed. Big, big mistake! Women buy jeans at least one size too small! The jeans look great on them, nice and tight, but they are hell to pull off. Believe me; I've tried more than once. If you can get it over her ass, you might have a chance. I never seemed to be that lucky, as I had to climb up and try to pull the jeans under her ass, scooting each side down about an inch at a time. +You want to do this without pulling her panties off at the same time. You might have to pull her panties and jeans down a little and then kind of pull the panties back up and then back to the jeans again. Hopefully, you were lucky enough to get the jeans down to her thighs. If she has big thighs, you might have to keep scooting the jeans one side at a time. Whatever you do, keep complimenting her on her body, even if she has thunder thighs and stretch marks. Don't ask her to spread her legs - it doesn't sound good. If she doesn't do it automatically for you, then scoot up between them and push her legs apart yourself, but not too far - you still have to get her jeans off. +How to get on the bed: +Hopefully, by now your date is naked. Somewhere along the line you should have removed your own clothing. You should usually leave your underwear on till you are ready to expose your big Johnson (cock). +Last year I tried to explain getting on the bed while kissing. A totally bad idea! +I wanted us to fall together on the bed gently like they do in the movies. So I held onto her and kind of pulled her toward me so we could fall together onto the bed. Big mistake! I didn't say anything to her while she lost her footing and fell on me as we bumped heads. It kind of killed the mood since now she needed a couple of aspirin for the headache she was quickly getting. +Another time my date and I were kissing when we fell together on the bed. She sent me her dental bill for the loose teeth she received. +I've never gotten that falling together down right. I tried to fall on the bed by myself over a hundred times so I could explain to the readers the best way to do this. Believe me, there isn't any good way to fall on the bed alone, let alone with a partner. Now I just tell my lady friend to climb on the bed and then I climb on top of her. I can't believe how many aspirin I have saved, and no more dental bills. Of course I might add, if she wants to be on top, that's okay too. +How to use foreplay: +Women love foreplay. The first thing and also the main thing to remember is to compliment! compliment! compliment! Women love compliments. I don't care if it's her hair, boobs, belly, feet, toes or nose, compliment her on it. You will be glad you did. +Hopefully your woman should now be lying on your bed with only her panties on. You should climb on the bed and have some foreplay before going much further. Women usually like this unless you are as inept as I was till I started practicing on using foreplay. +Let's talk a little about her erogenous zones. Women have many of them. Most men know about her nipples, neck, lips and the whole vaginal area. There are others that I have found lately and would like to pass on to you. +The shoulders: I can't tell you how many women have let me rub their shoulders. Of course you start there and they may let you massage a lot of other places as well. Women also love to have their feet massaged. Rub the little balls under their toes. After being on their feet all day, they will love you for this. If they have nice cute clean feet, you might consider sucking a toe or two. Of course you will need to check their feet out pretty good before sucking any toes. You have to be the judge here. +One of the newest places I have found that turn women on, is the area between their belly button and their mound. I can't tell you what a hot area this is on most women. I have to admit that this area is a turn on for me too, knowing that I am probably minutes away from pay dirt. Try both rubbing and kissing this area. No matter how big your woman is, this area is a turn-on. +Time to start the foreplay: I was kissing my woman over and over again. I was planting my lips against her taking her breath away. Literally! I didn't know she wasn't able to breath and she started kicking and moving under me. I thought I was really getting her turned on. I was 'Jerry, the super kisser.' I found out she wasn't able to breathe through her nose. I guess I really took her breath away. You might want to ask or at least make the kisses short if you see this happening. +I started kissing her neck like they do in the movies. Again, another mistake! I sucked too hard and gave her a hickey. For those of you who don't know what a hickey is I'll explain. It's sucking hard on her neck or other soft places that leave a bruise. Most women don't want hickeys. It's embarrassing especially if other people see the bruises and she has to try to explain it. If she's married, you might be in 'mucho' trouble. +Kissing and playing with her boobs. This was information I passed along last year but it still holds true. The boobs or breasts are a big misunderstood area. Some women loved them played with. None like them mauled - believe me, I found out the hard way. +Remembering one of my first big breasted women, I couldn't wait to get hold of those big babies and I grabbed them. She screamed out, slapped me and went home. The next lady, I tried to just squeeze them hoping to turn her on. Again, a mistake! She told me I felt like a mammogram machine - you know; those machines that squeeze the shit out of a woman's tits. No woman - and I mean NO woman - wants her breasts squashed, regardless of the size of her boobs. +Here is the right way to do it. I learned after the loss of sex from many women. Don't get your hands near those babies until you have laid some light kisses on them, lots of light kisses. Don't bite! Remember that women do not want sucker bites or any kinds of bites or bruising they might have to explain. Sucking of the nipples are a big ""Yes"". Women like this - maternal instinct or something - but women love sucking, licking and kissing of the nipples. If the nipples get big, you're doing real good. +If you did the sucking and licking right, you may now gently massage the breasts. I usually get yelled at and slapped by this time or my woman goes home with sore boobs. If you succeeded to this point, then rub and gently massage her breasts and softly touch the nipples. Be damn gentle with the nipples here. She hopefully is getting into it by now and will let you start to squeeze those babies. If she's moaning or groaning, that is a good sign. If she's just lying there you might want to find out why. She may be sleeping or worse - dead. If she is dead, call 911 and go home. You will be considered a freak if you go any further. That was a joke, readers. You have to learn to laugh a little. +Here is some more information I passed along last year. I did get some negative feedback from a couple of women who said most men's bodies aren't attractive either. I totally agree with them. A beer belly or hairy back isn't the most exciting thing for a woman to look at. This is one of the reasons that under no conditions should you say anything negative about the body of your date. +If she has stretch marks or a rather large belly don't say anything negative. If you do, your night will be over. Remember most women's bodies do not look like the ones you see on the big screen or the calendar on the wall. If you look anything like me, be glad that you have anybody that moves lying there in front of you. Close your eyes if you have to, but rub and kiss the belly even if it's not attractive. +Let's keep going. Move your hand into her panties. If she has a pad on, you have a problem. Either you have to go further or get up and go home. At this point you might want to pull her panties off and check under the hood so to speak. If you pull her panties off along with the pad or pulled the string and removed the tampon, you have to decide how bad you want it. If she let you go this far, she definitely wants to do it. So what are you going to do? If you don't fuck her now, believe me, you never will! +These kinds of decisions never have to be made on TV shows. +Let's say she's on her period. Put on a condom and jump her bones. This is what I suggest you do. Use the stupid condom and have fun. If you don't have one or don't like wearing them - and I don't like them - just stick it in as long as you know she is disease free. Blood and cum will always wash off. She'll consider you the man for doing her during this period. +No blood? No problem, she probably wears it for leaks. It only happens in real life. Women laugh, women pee, the pad absorbs it. So, if the pad isn't wet, jump her bones. If the pad is wet, wipe her pussy off with a wash cloth - that's something you never see on TV but it does help. Then proceed to eat her out. Believe me; every woman except the really weird ones likes her pussy eaten out. She may not like to give head but she loves receiving it. +Let's talk a little about oral sex. It's a big decision these days. One thing every man ought to know. If you don't plan on eating her pussy then don't expect her to be giving you any head. +We had a big discussion last year over whether a person with false teeth should keep them in or take them out. +If your woman has false teeth and wants to give you a blowjob, let her remove said teeth. You do not need her to accidentally bite your dick. It hurts and might make it unusable for awhile. The warm gums feel great around it. Don't kiss her till she puts her teeth back in her mouth and maybe even use mouthwash. +I asked for opinions on this and here are a few I received. +""If you have false teeth, leave them in your mouth. It is gross for your date to see your teeth in a glass next to the bed."" +""Sorry to say but that last part is a crock of shit. If she has false teeth, under no circumstances should you ask her to take them out. You'll think your dick is in a pussy that's just been fist fucked by a 10 ton truck....it'll be so loose that you won't feel anything. Nothing she can do will change it as without teeth the space in the mouth is so great that no cock can fill it and make it feel good for the guy. Furthermore, her jaws will ache so much from trying to suck and not being able to apply proper pressure...the only way she could; would be if the guy had one of those 14 inches, wide as a beer can cock you mentioned earlier."" +""Look DG, I have to tell you. If she has false teeth and takes them off, you're in for a big surprise, not good at all. With no teeth it's impossible to suck properly and the vacuum needed to perform fellatio is absent; furthermore, her jaws will ache like crazy. Believe me, if she has false teeth, let her keep them on. There's no more danger of being bitten then if it was her real teeth."" +Personally, if I'm eating a moist wet pussy, I take my teeth out so I can gum it and slurp in all the wet juices. The dentures take away from the feeling that I get. So, teeth or no-teeth, that is the question. As they say on Fox news, ""You decide."" +How to get that, ""Oh, what a feeling"": +Last year I said, ""Most pussies are really not that pretty. I have seen a lot of them and still get turned on by them, regardless of how ugly they might be."" +Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I decided most all pussies are beautiful. Soft, wet, moist, what's not to love? Now the smell is another story. To me, not every pussy smells the same. If you like fish, it will be a plus for you. I know, in all the stories you read the writers are talking about the heavenly smell. It only smells like that when you are at your horniest. At that point every pussy looks and smells great! +A word or two about bushes. Most ladies trim their bushes some, younger ones mainly to trim up the hair for their bathing suit bottoms. On the TV they always look great. At the pool where I hang out, I always see the hair sticking out the sides of their suits. Looks funny but I can't help looking anyway. Of course I'm a pussy hound and the hair doesn't bother me, especially in a dim light. It seems that a number of ladies shave it all off. It's okay but I think I prefer to see some hair down there. +If you see some gray hair on it, don't worry about it. It means she probably knows how to use it. Experience you know is always good. If you get hair between your teeth, try to just remove it without being seen. She usually can't see you over her belly anyway. +Use of condoms is big these days; lots of diseases to worry about. I was watching a lot of porno movies so that I could give you good 'how to' information here. Most of the porn stars are wearing condoms in their films. It kind of takes away from the film but I guess the actors want to live to fuck another day. +I brought this up because in the porno films, they always remove the condom before coming. They jack themselves off on the partners back or ass. Sometimes they have their woman actress slide down and cum all over her face. +Now, a bit more honesty here. That's why I'm writing this how to, to tell you the truth. I talked to a number of women and none of them got anything out of me pulling my cock out of her pussy and coming on her back. Their answer was, ""What the fuck?"" +Also, I have yet to find the woman that says, ""Pull your dick out of my pussy, I'm about ready to orgasm, but go ahead and cum on my face."" +Use the condom, fill it up while in her pussy and then dispose of it. You'll both be glad you did. +Some more information from last year. I'm still not big on anal sex. +Ass fucking: It's not for everybody, including me. I've tried it and it really wasn't that good. My partner said it hurt like hell and there was more than one partner I tried it with. If they don't have an enema or some other way of cleaning it out, it smells. I don't know about you but to me shit stinks. I really don't want it on my dick, even though in some of these stories they seem to like the Hershey highway. +For those of you who like anal sex, that's great. I'm not knocking you or your likes and dislikes. I'm just trying to base my opinions and observations here. The first time I ass fucked, I thought my dick was going to blow up. It didn't fit very well. I used all kinds of lube which helped get it in but it hurt me and it hurt my partner. I just felt my time would have been better spent if I put it in a hot wet pussy. No hard feelings for the anal lovers. +I have found out that while fucking from behind, (doggie style) that a finger or two inserted into the anal passage may be a turn-on. For those who want to try it, make sure your fingers are lubed or you rubbed a lot of her juices there first. +Update from a friend: ""If a woman lets a man take her in the ass and then shits all over the floor, it's not her fault. So don't hold her responsible - you asked for it. Clean up the mess yourself."" +Underwear, for the man, is always interesting. If you expect to get any, make sure you don't have skid marks in your underwear. That is good advice for both sexes. TV and movie people never have skid marks. No woman is turned on by seeing the nicotine stains in your jockeys. Same goes for the guys not wearing under clothing. Shit stains in your jeans aren't so good either. +For the guys, if you don't have underwear on, pull your own zipper down. If any skin gets caught in the zipper, it hurts like hell and your night will be over before it begins. Your lady friend might be in too big a hurry when pulling down your zipper. +Okay, we're nearing the end of the how-to. I will give you a few important facts that I have learned. A few facts guys should know that happen mainly in fantasy land. Most of this information has been given in the past but it doesn't hurt to read it again. +How-to, extra facts: +Because she let you touch her tit doesn't mean she has an instant orgasm. You want her hot? You have to work at it. +Don't rush to jab fingers into her vagina. She'll let you know when she's ready. Play around on the outside for awhile. You'll both enjoy it. +Just because you want to fuck her doesn't mean the feeling is mutual. Stay cool and go with the flow. She'll let you know when and how she wants it when she's ready. Don't rush her but do a lot of wooing. Women like that. +Only in stories do the women seem to lose all control and want to be lifetime slaves to some idiot just because he has a big cock. +What is a big cock anyway? In some stories, it's 6"" while in others it is 11"" and even in others 14"". Same with width - some of the stories have them bigger than beer cans. I'm afraid if she needs something 14"" long and as wide as a beer can she would never be happy with anyone I've ever met. ""You decide."" +Toilet seats always seem to be a big issue. Never know why, if it's up and you have to take a shit or a woman wants to use it, put the damn thing down. If you have to take a piss, then lift it up. Don't piss on the seat. Women don't like to sit on a toilet seat that is all wet. If you pissed on it, then wipe it off. Your lady will be glad you did. +Let's see, where else can I help you out here? Oh, after making love, compliment her on her lovemaking even if it wasn't the greatest. Smooch with her a little before rolling over and going to sleep. If you want to be the big man on campus then sleep on the wet spot. Show her that you really care. If you do that and wake up in the middle of the night, you can probably get another hunk while she is sleeping. +Remember the main thing is to compliment, compliment, compliment. +You have to remember that these are only suggestions and ideas. They don't work for everyone. Hope these suggestions help you out with your sex life. I'm always here to help. +Please forward comments so we can put your idea to work next year.

Take it from me. I understand your plight, I feel your pain. In such cases, the only thing you can do is learn how to hide your pornography effectively. If you follow these tips, they will look all they want, and won't find a single suspicious thing. +Tip #1: Hide things in plain sight People have the tendency to 'dig deep' when they are trying to find something. For example, they'll look in the very back of your dresser, under the mattress, behind bookshelves... in other words- they look in nooks and crannies that seem the most likely candidates for holding secrets- but not in the most obvious places, like ON the bookshelf or in your cosmetic bag. Now I'm not saying that you should leave your dildo on the nightstand, in plain sight. But put it somewhere where people won't bother to look because it would be considered 'too obvious'. +For example, I have a small decorative gift box on my bookshelf, surrounded by my jewelry box, a deck of cards and some pictures. I put my dildo in there, and I know for a fact that nobody ever looks in that direction. The box blends into the room too nicely to be noticed. +Try to find something similar- even hollow books work. Or if you have a messy room, put your toys or books or clothing under a pile of DVDs or in your dirty laundry hamper. +Tip #2: Keep things spread out This is obvious, but many people forget. If someone should happen upon an erotic novel or two, you would totally be able to own up to that without admitting that you also have toys/ games/ videos. Find several good spots in your bedroom, and use them all for different items. +However, when doing this it is very important that you remember all of your hiding places. This could lead to disaster and embarrassment, if, a few years down the road your parent/ relative/ friend is helping you rearrange your room, or move out of it altogether, and they should happen upon your stash. +Tip #3: For DVDs Hiding DVDs is relatively easy. Remove the original packaging of the 'offending' DVD and throw that out. The disc could then be hidden among your other DVDs or on your bookshelf. It would be preferable to hide them among those DVDs that are not often watched, to prevent you or someone else opening the DVD cases up at some inopportune moment. +Tip #4: For Computer Files If you have your own laptop or desktop, then hiding computer files becomes a whole lot easier. Create a login/password for yourself, and for anyone else that may use your computer. When saving pornographic files, save them under ""My Documents/Your Username"". Files saved in such a manner could not be accessed by anyone else, provided they know your username/password. +Many people will not have their own personal computer, however, and so should take note of the following points: +USB keys are a fantastic technology and should be used to their advantage. Pictures and videos can be saved directly on the USB key, and then detached from the computer to be pulled out at a later date. And USB keys have the advantage of being small (therefore easy to hide, in for example, a pencil case, briefcase or purse) as well as inexpensive. +Window Washer is your friend. This program completely clears your visited websites history, cookies and any history of recently accessed documents. Window Washer can be downloaded for free on many Freeware websites. Get into a habit of using it often. I personally run a wash at the end of every day, just before going to bed. +Probably the most obvious advice I could give you is to password protect any sensitive files or folders. Although this is a great method of keeping nosy people away from your stash, it is not the best way to proceed. Someone that comes across a protected folder or file will naturally become more curious as to what that file contains. This could lead to arguments and suspicion and doesn't entirely solve your problem. +Lastly, naming files creatively is an effective way of staving off nosy family members. For example, the article I'm presently writing is titled ""Hiding Porn Effectively"" but is saved in a folder ""Lottery Results 2009"" with the date that I started writing the article as the title of the file. There is no password attached to the file. Saving files in this manner arouses the least amount of suspicion or curiosity. If I were to create a password protected folder ""Literotica Fiction"", then you could be sure that nosy family members would demand to know what was going on! +I hope these tips and tricks help you hide files that are 'sensitive in nature' and avoid awkward situations or conversations. I would definitely be interested in any feedback you would have to offer as this is my very first Literotica submission!" +263,Hitchhiker's Guide To Men Ch. 02,TheLordMemnoch,How To,2007-05-01,2007-05-01,2022-01-04 08:29:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/hitchhikers-guide-to-men-ch-02,One man's advice on loving men.,"['Battle Of The Sexes', 'Relationship Advice', 'Self-Help']",4.1,"_Suck his dick, play with his balls, make him a sandwich and don't talk so much -- Dave Chappelle_ +We want to eat, we want to sleep and we want to see a woman nekkid -- Jeff Foxworthy +There are only three things women need in life: food, water, and compliments. -- Chris Rock +Feed me, fuck me, shut the fuck up! -- Chris Rock +* +I came across both the Hitchhiker's Guide to Women and the Guide to Men and felt I had to elaborate a bit on the male perspective as well as to offer a retort, which may or may not have been covered in the first installment of the guide to men. While it made certain valid points, it did not cover some of the things that I, for one, would like to have had discussed. +I'll begin with the principle differences in the way a man looks at a woman as opposed to the way a man thinks a woman looks at him. Men in general view women as more materialistic than men when it comes to choosing our mates, therefore males try to have the flashiest clothes, cars, jewelry, etc. It reflects on how men try to solve problems that may arise with the opposite sex as well. +The best way a man knows that he can perhaps patch things up with his other half is through gifts and praises. Men assume that ALL women are sensitive and emotionally needy, though some are, but that is where the praise comes in as well. The funny thing is that from what I gather from women, they think that we are emotionally needy as well, requiring tons of ego stroking. There is plenty of stroking that is appreciated, however it's not ego. +So how does that lead to problems between the sexes? A man sees no problems shelling out twenty five dollars for a dozen roses, another ten dollars for a box of chocolates and maybe another five for balloons, in exchange for not sleeping on the couch. The problem then becomes why THOSE flowers or why THOSE chocolates which becomes disheartening because, trust me ladies, if the guy messed up it probably isn't as big of a deal as you are making it out to be. This coming from a male perspective of course. +How can I make such a statement you ask? It's simple. The fact that men have different needs than women doesn't exactly mean that he doesn't care about your feelings of about you. And it always seems like it's about you doesn't it? He forgot MY birthday ergo he doesn't care about ME. He doesn't want to go watch Bambi together therefore he doesn't care about ME. Men simply don't think that way. Men forget to call their buddies on their birthdays all the time. Men don't care. +""Yo, man, my birthday was yesterday. Did you forget?"" +""Oh sorry, dude, I was banging Gina you know how it is. Happy belated birthday."" +""Thanks."" +And that is how a realistic conversation about the topic between men go. Maybe I over did it with the Gina bit, but the point is the same. Forgetting your birthday is not a personal attack on YOU. Neither is wanting to hang out with ""the boys"" one night a week (three or four if you are a teenage guy). Sure I can understand the frustration of nobody remembering your birthday and sure I can understand that the dingy pizzeria he likes sucks, but let's compare the alternative. +Not remembering your birthday can be upsetting though not that big of a deal. Choosing to be with his friends over you on a particular day means he wants to play football, Xbox, Dungeons & Dragons or even to drink and talk about girls. Huh? He is talking about Me to his friends? If you are lucky he won't be talking about you. What guy, other than an excited teen who just lost his virginity, would want all his buddies to know how well you sword swallow or how tight your ass is? Then he might not have any friends. +But seriously what if YOU went and did some of those things with him? Chances are none of his friends will take kindly to having a girl on their team who they can't tackle that hard. So obviously you, the girlfriend, are not invited. I am sure you are asking yourself what if you come as an observer? That can certainly work, but how long can you watch a boring game between six friends who are not all that skilled anyway? If they were playing for Notre Dame then I am sure you would watch him play all day long. Other than that I believe once is enough. +""Well, I am a cool girl, his friends like me, I can hang out with them."" +No you can't. That you have hung out with ""the boys"" doesn't mean you are appreciated there unless other girlfriends are there too. Buddy time is buddy time and yes sometimes it means having discussions about other girls. Don't forget, ladies, that we assume that you are all liars when it comes to not talking about or looking at other guys. We assume you do that with your girlfriends as well. +Speaking of liars that brings me to a huge problem that the sexes seem to disagree on. Women say men lie more, men say women tell bigger lies. Whatever. Both sexes lie about different things all the time. +Lie #1 +""Does this dress make me look fat?"" +""No."" +""Am I prettier than my best friend?"" +""Yes."" +I noticed that Yodafurball used those and I am sure that virtually every male has gotten in trouble over those questions at one point in his life. Why? Is there a universal book that is passed around prepubescent girls on ""What question to ask that will piss you off at your boyfriend""? Seriously why do females ask this question? It's a no win situation for us and can be completely avoided. Then you have men that take that and turn it around. +""Deep down inside women WANT to be lied to."" +Yes, ladies, a lot of men feel that way, yet they will never admit it to you. Don't bother asking your boyfriend if he agrees with that because if he does, and knows what's best for him, he will lie and say I am a jerk for writing such nonsense. How can we resolve this problem? Don't ask would be the smart choice. Another choice would be to ask and deal with the truth without telling him how he is a premature ejaculator or making references to his penis and a cheeto in the same sentence. It's one of those things that men don't know the answer to and never will I feel. +On the subject of penis size, this if probably where men are the most insecure. Men don't care if their hairstyle went out of style with the Beatles. The simple fact that he HAS hair is a good thing. A beer gut adds character. Men are so secure in their sexual appeal that all women of all ages and races would sleep with them. Nothing stands in their way! Until we discuss penis size. +Men, as well as women, have this fixation with that part of the anatomy but for different reasons. Women I think only concentrate on it because that is where it hurts the most, figurative and literally. There isn't a single weak spot on either gender that can come close to causing that kind of physical and psychological damage as a jab to the nether region. But why? What is it about this organ that can make or break a relationship at the mere discussion of it? +There is no greater satisfaction than knowing you are the largest penis your woman has ever seen(pun intended). Who cares if she thought you were a lousy lay? You are huge! Or so you thought. On one fateful day you actually took a ruler out to your penis only to discover that you are well below the studly 8 inches you thought. What's worse is that you are barely even average! Does that mean that your girlfriend has only seen two dicks in her life, and thank goodness for you, the other guy belongs in the hermaphrodite category? Or was she lying to you?I suspect it is the latter. +That's rather curious because by now it would appear that men need to be lied to as well. What man can stomach the fact that his girlfriends last boyfriend can give Ron Jeremy a run for his money? Men are insecure about their penis size for reasons unknown and it has been known to create problems which women can and will exploit. I am sure every man has chuckled when a girl they like talks about their last boyfriend and says the immortal words, ""He had a little dick anyway."" Bitterness for sure since it didn't seem to be much of a problem in the three years that she was with ""Mr mini bite"". +So we both tell each other little ""white"" lies from time to time to keep the sanctity of our home. Should we? If it means not sleeping on the couch then most men would say ""yes"" and we get to the point that he HAVE to lie. I know some people don't want to view something like this as lying but it is. Plain and simple. Ladies, until you get over this insecurity issue that I believe most have, you are forcing men to get used to lying to you. It forms a problem in other areas too. +The big O. Or to be more direct; orgasms. Faking an orgasm is counterproductive and gives the man the false impression that he is somehow inadequate. Another case of lying to keep the sanctity? I am afraid so. But honestly, I don't think that men are as sensitive about this issue as many women would like to think. Faking an orgasm to make him feel better? More often than not we can't even tell nor do we care so why lie about it? Most of us already know that there are a certain percentage of women that simply can't orgasm through sex so we also understand that it's not us. We don't take it so personal. Again this illustrates one of the major differences between men and women. +Stop taking everything personal, ladies. We don't hate you. Having a pimple on your ass one day will NOT prevent us from enjoying sex with you. Having your hair uncombed will not prevent us from any sexual activity. Can you just picture it? +""No, honey, I don't want a blowjob because your hair is a mess!"" +Or how about. +""You have a pimple on your ass so I will NOT eat your pussy."" +Can you imagine most men saying anything that moronic? However, to the ladies that actually have heard something like that from a male I say dump him. And fast. No sense in wasting your time with a superficial individual that probably is privileged to be with you because he might have nice teeth or have a nice car. There are certain things that as women I think you should overlook and that is not one of them. +What things should you overlook? If it's simple it probably means a lot more to you than it does to us I can assure you. Leaving the toilet seat up, for instance. Have you ever heard of a guy saying, ""Why the hell did you leave the toilet seat down when you know I have to take a piss?"" If the seat is down we put it up and vice versa without incident. If the man leaves the seat up all hell breaks loose and for what? Leaving the toilet seat up is not a personal attack on you as a woman or human being. +Then we get to the phone business. The reason why we don't use the phone as often or as much is because typically our conversations are strictly the facts. Who, what, where and why. No man is interested in his buddy telling him that he went to the store to buy a piece to the car but stayed there extra long because his mind was on the fact that he could not get it up last night and it has cause him irreparable damage to his psyche. We don't do that and to that I say men are insensitive to a woman's needs; Menstruation. +Mood swings, bloated stomach, feeling unattractive, acne and an overwhelming sense of blah for three to five days each and ever month is something that a man CAN'T empathize with. You can tell us about it and we can kinda understand, but we can't get it. It's physically impossible to put a man in those conditions because they don't exist. As far as we know it's all simply an excuse to be a bitch. That's the male perspective. +There are still deep rooted primitive frame of minds that as civilized members of the 21st century we have yet to shed. For instance, males are the dominant of the species with the bigger one always getting the lions share of the food, therefore the bigger and stronger the man the better he will be able to provide for the family and the reverse is true as well. A woman with big child bearing hips and a big ass will not have complications during childbirth. Also big tits are a sign of fertility. +So while men are only interested in the big ""important"" things women are more interested in the ""details"" of things. Traditionally that has always been true, but in today's ever changing society the gender gap is slowly narrowing. Now we have nonsense such as metrosexual. Metrosexual? What the hell is up with that nonsense? A man can't comb his hair without being labeled something other than a heterosexual male? Again, a primitive frame of mind. The man works and toils to provide for the family therefore he is ""supposed"" to be rugged all the time. +Men are not complicated at all for the most part and it's a mystery to me why women can't figure us out. The phrases at the beginning of this essay are for the most part so true. Men are direct in what they want and need. ""I'm cold"" is not a hint for the girl to give us a sweater. We don't drop hints. We don't hang up on you ""to see if she will call me back"". That's childish to most and I think most men will agree with me on that. We don't slam the door and leave the house. ""to see if she will run after me"" If we slam the door we are leaving. Period. +Now we get to chivalry and why it should stay dead. This one irks me the most as a man. After women's lib and the bra burning we have to hear how women want to be treated equal, same jobs, same money, etc, but still want to be treated like a ""lady""? Am I missing something here? For those of you that don't know, let me pose and example. All things being equal do you still expect the guy to open the door for you? Why? How about offer to pay for dinner regardless of who makes more money? If the woman makes more money than we do, a very realistic scenario in this day and age, then why do we still have to ""treat her like a lady"" and pay for the bill? It's a double standard that men are not too happy with. +Nice guys finish last. How often have we hear that one? Too often because the sad reality is that it is true. A ""nice"" guy is viewed as a pussy by most men and I fear that women agree though they won't admit to it. There is no such thing as TOO nice, ladies, unless you are deep in that liberation movement that you view it as a man treating you as a ""lady"" and not as a person. Then again, there is always that line as an excuse because you simply are not attracted to the guy. ""You are nice, let's just be friends."" Guys, take the hint and don't ask her out again, she doesn't like you. +So in closing, ladies, I would like to offer ten tips that will greatly improve your understanding of men and hopefully improve your relationship. +1\. We are not really interested in how many guys you dated, who had the bigger penis, or how you learned how to sword swallow so well. We are pretty sure you learned it from another guy, but we don't need to confirm it. Ex- boyfriends should stay in the past where they belong. Along the same lines don't call our penises ""cute"". +2\. Being sexy is a wonderful thing unless you play up to the attention. If every Tom Dick and Harry is letting us know that he can't wait to ""play hide the salami with that tight ass"" it can get rather old. We are already upset that a man is disrespecting us we don't need you to add to it. +3\. Stop dropping hints. If you are hungry, say you are hungry and mean it. Nothing is more annoying that saying, ""I feel like a cheesecake"" only to have us offer to take you out and for you to say, ""aw, that's so sweet! I don't really want one I just wanted to see if you would get me one"" A knuckle sandwich is perfect right about now. +4\. Men are not perfect and neither are you. Every time we do something and you say, ""That was nice, BUT you fucked something up"" only tells us that you could have done better. And our thinking is, ""Why the hell didn't YOU do it in the first place?"" If a man does something considerate even if it's cliche and you come up with a line like that, rest assured it will be the last time we do it. +5\. Stop being so critical of yourselves. We love you how you are. Do not remind us at every turn that you don't feel sexy because you gained some weight or you are having a bad hair day. We don't care. Now that's not an excuse to completely let yourself go, but you have to understand that you are still you. If I fucked you in the first place chances are that I actually like you how you are. I don't secretly stare at the mole on your left butt cheek and wish I had a girl without one. +6\. If we told you ""I love you"" once it doesn't need to be repeated ad naseum. I don't understand what this obsession is with us having to tell you those three words all the time. If we love you today we probably will love you tomorrow. Stop being so insecure. +7\. If we don't call you back after an argument don't take it personally. Our thinking is that we don't want to make a bigger mess of things and are hoping to catch you when you cool off. No sense in hearing how much of a failure you are for three more hours. +8\. Dates are just dates and the pressure of being obligated to do something special other than your birthday(or anniversary) is not as important to us. The first time we kissed, had sex, met your parents and not that important. The fact that we kissed, had sex or actually met your parents is enough for us. That we may forget your birthday, among all dates, is not the end if the world. It's a bit disappointing, but should not be blown out of proportion. Just remind him the day before or something if you want to do something nice. Come to think of it, do we really need a ""special"" day to do something nice for our other half? +9.If we nod a lot when you are talking this does not mean that we are not listening and I can't stress this enough. We ARE listening, however we are not interested in the window dressing. We want the facts and are blocking out certain elements of the story so that we don't get side tracked from what you were saying in the first place. We don't have the hormonal changes to able to truly understand the feelings surrounding any particular event. The less feelings and the more facts to a story would be better received by men. +10\. Stop being so insecure! +There you have it. It's a bit crude in spots, but pretty accurate as to how most of the guys that you come across will think. Yes there are exceptions, but then it would not be so much fun writing an essay like this." +264,Hitchhiker's Guide To Men,yodafurball,How To,2007-01-15,2007-01-15,2022-01-04 08:29:33,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/hitchhikers-guide-to-men-1,A take on the male state of mind.,[''],3.91,"Recently I have read an article asking for a man to tell the male state of mind. Now what I say may not apply to every man but I'm sure most of us think in this way. +Now when we guys screw up you ladies seem to think we don't care. Nothing could be further from the truth. We just don't see it in the same light. I guess a good example is your man is working in the garage. While he is staring into his project you would ask ""does my hair look ok?"" he answers ""ya"" In a tone that shows no enthusiasm. +From my experience this is where you ladies assume that he did not even look, so there for he is trying to get rid of you, there for he doesn't give a shit about you or what you think, then all hell breaks loose and we end up on the couch. Well from what I understand this is the track in which the female mind works. Ten assumptions ending it that one and only reason some guy invented throw pillows. +Ladies believe it or not a guy thinks in a similar way. But we do it thinking about other stuff than if you like us. When you asked your famous question of death, you didn't realized he did see your hair in the corner of his eye. So when he said ""ya"" he meant it. But at that same moment he also figured out why his engine keeps stopping after 10 seconds. So se we don't have a one track mind it just seems that way. +And sometimes it seems like we are just trapped, mostly with all the questions you ladies ask. +The questions we really hate are things like ""Do I look fat?"" and ""Do you think she is pretty?"" these are two death sentences, ""Do I look fat?"", No matter what we say we are dead. If I say yea because I think you look great I am going to get accused of lying. Ladies believe it or not you are in no way ugly, if we get to this question you should already know the answer. ""Of Corse not I like the way you look or I would not be dating you"". +If this question is common I would suggest doing some self searching to get rid of what ever daemons are giving you doubt, because sooner or later he is just going to start saying ""yea"" just to get the same punishment for the least amount of effort. +And ladies don't ask questions for which you don't want to know the answer. +""Do you think she is pretty?"" guys have a natural instinct to look at women it is a reaction we try to fight it around you but its hard so asking this question is like giving a loaded needle to a recovering heroin addict. +We are being forced into a habit we are trying to stay away from and it is going to destroy our lives. +If you have a man he loves you for a reason and will not leave you no matter how many breasts he looks at. If he does you deserve better anyway. +If you haven't Found Mr. Right yet quit thinking it's because you are not attractive. +Believe it or not someone loves the way you are. If physical alterations are not working try showing your soul that is the attractive part. +I'm sure you've noticed guys don't seem to care how we look. +Well we do but the male philosophy is if I am going out with a girl I will show her my other traits she must already think I am attractive. +From what I noticed you ladies seem to either on a search for the perfect relationship or a path to self destruction. +Ladies we do love you and that's why we don't share feelings. For one you've probably noticed guys can't go a week without saying something to get them in trouble. And a lot or our feelings came from passed experiences including exes. So it we tell you about why we feel that way normally it is a bad experience we learned in a former relationship and don't want to tell you that because if we even mention our ex even for a negative reason. We might as well have answered yes to the fat question. +So if you ask a guy why he doesn't like something don't get mad if he brings up an ex, it's probably a bad experience and if you put jealousy aside you might be able to learn from her mistake. +And if the experience was not to bad you might be able to do something similar but using her mistake as a reference on what not to do you might be able a create a good experience to replace his bad one. +One thing I've noticed ladies is for some reason you think because we still look at women or watch porn that we are unfaithful. Not at all, like I said before looking in a natural addiction. And normally our thought about a hot woman is ""damn look at the ass on that but I bet she can't do that thing like my woman does with a scrawny thing like that"". +We do look at women and yes a little more than we should but we always want to come home to you because you have something more. +And he isn't going to cheat. +I know Jerry Springer still has a hit show but few guys actually cheat. +My fiancé and I have a pact if we catch each other cheating its over. Because if you can't trust the person you love don't be with them. +So ladies give him some room to cheat if he does you deserve better, if he doesn't you have a keeper. +And most guys watch porn for two reasons one to get ideas and two I know my girl likes sex so the more exited I get the more she enjoys it. +If you wander why guys spend a lot of time on hobbies and not talking a lot. +We like a challenge we can win, if we can make things work we like it. +And if you haven't noticed the battlefield of exposing ourselves to you isn't even and we will lose so we just avoid the battle. +I know some of my examples may be blown out of proportion. But the same message is still there. +We are not as complicated as you think. And we do try to fix our mistakes. +We just realize things can be fixed over time and with effort so we don't seem to react to problems like you. +And please quit taking all our actions to heart, well the ones you think are bad. +Men love you women or he wouldn't have been with you this long. +I hope this is helpful to both women and men thank you and good luck." +265,Hitchhiker's Guide to Women,Goldeniangel,How To,2005-11-21,2005-11-21,2022-01-04 08:29:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/hitchhikers-guide-to-women,Common mistakes men make: how NOT to make them.,"['Advice', 'Dating']",4.45,"The other day my boyfriend showed me an email he'd gotten called ""Ten Common Mistakes Men Make With Women""... it was written by a man. Which was all well and good, and he got some of the mistakes right, but not WHY they were mistakes. Of course, he was just trying to sell his product - i.e. his book - but I got to thinking, why doesn't a woman write something like that? After all, men are always complaining that women seem to be from another planet, and vice versa (In fact, if a man could write a piece like this for us girls, that'd be fantastic! *hint*hint*). +So, I'm going to tell you a lot of the common mistakes men make, WHY they're mistakes and hopefully how to fix them (or what to do instead). As with all how-to's, this is a general type of thing and not every single thing will work exactly the way I say, and this will not apply to all women... so YOUR job is to figure out what DOES apply to you and what applies to your woman and go from there. This is less a how-to on how to get a woman as it is on how to keep one and have a good time doing it! +One of the very first mistakes men make is either thinking that women ONLY care about looks and money or that they don't care about looks and money at all. It's neither... and both! Those are not what we're REALLY attracted to. Sure, good looks can be attractive... right up until we find out that you're an asshole. A complete and total asshole. And then those good looks start fading away to something else.. +Now some of you are probably sitting there going, ""Well hey, I'm a nice guy, and trust me, nice guys finish last."" That can be very true, and we'll get to fixing that later. The important thing to realize right now is that most women are not attracted to looks or wealth alone. There has to be some kind of attractive personality there... did you ever see ""Hitch""? All those gorgeous women fixed up with average looking guys? It's because those guys have something more going for them than looks, and although I would never recommend following what goes on in Hitch as a way to get the girl, it does give a good example. +What ARE women attracted to? A sense of humor - not just telling jokes but the ability to laugh at yourself. A guy who can laugh at himself has a stable ego, not too insecure but not egotistical either. Thoughtful guys, who have something interesting to say, who aren't afraid to put their observations out there and who listen well. And when I say listen well, I don't mean sitting their nodding your head. I mean remembering and giving feedback. +Example: +You're in an art gallery, she says, +""Oh I love Van Gogh... I think he's just so passionate!"" +If you just nod, to her that means that you're thinking something and you don't want to share it. And then she starts wondering why you don't want to share it. +Is it because you hate Van Gogh and you don't want to disagree with her? Well, that's just kind wimpy. It tells her that you're going to agree with her no matter what, it means that you're not sharing your true thoughts and feelings with her and that means that you're lying. You're a liar. +Or is it because you have no opinion? But why no opinion? Do you not care about her opinion? Are you just shrugging her off? Why don't you care about her opinion? Do you not care about HER? Why is she on a date with you if you don't care about her? +Or is it because you're checking out that woman over there... that pretty one with the huge boobs. Are you wishing you were with her? Are you just not looking at the painting... you're...you're looking at the other woman. You asshole. You're on a date with me and you're looking at another woman already. We haven't even gotten to dinner yet. +Or is it because you're agreeing with her? +Now, believe it or not, ALL of that is going to go through her head in about 15 seconds... and probably more than that with all its varied conclusions. And so she will then say something that seems completely harmless and your reaction to it will make or break you because it will tell her which one of the above options was the reason for your nod. +Yes. Women psychoanalyze that much. And it is quicker than you can ever imagine. And not only that, but women are better at reading body language then men. You know that thing called ""A woman's instinct""? Apparently it's not instinct, it's body language. We KNOW. +So, INSTEAD of nodding - it's better just to avoid that whole thing you can say something like +(If you love Van Gogh): ""Oh yeah, he's one of my favorites. I really like his later pieces where you can see his madness creeping into the art, with all the shadows and everything."" +OR (If you think Van Gogh's a sap): ""Yeah, he's passionate, but I'm just not that into impressionists. I like the more defined stuff."" +OR (If you don't have a clue about art and you ARE just there because she wanted to go): ""Really? I don't know much about him..."" +Any of these are better than a nod. Just about any answer is better than a nod. +Now, let me get into the whole ""Nice Guy"" thing. Yes, there are some women who are attracted to the rebel guys and would never go for a nice guy, but there are a lot of women who are still attracted to nice guys. The problem is being TOO nice. +You know those big romantic gestures? Well, a lot of women find them kinda cheesy. And not very specialized. The whole flowers, dinner, movie, go back and watch the stars under candlelight... meh. Everyone does it. If you want to do a romantic gesture, show her that you pay attention to what she likes. If you're going to do flowers, get her FAVORITE. If you're doing dinner... cook it! And make something you know she'll like ALONG with something that's one of your favorites. Movies... meh. Unless of course it's something you both are really excited about. But what about taking her to somewhere she would really want to go? +My boyfriend took me out for my 21st birthday with all the regular stuff... but after dinner he took me to see Phantom Of the Opera. Not the movie, the show. I had never seen it before, always wanted to and I LOVE theater. +Another note for nice guys... DO NOT DO EVERYTHING SHE WANTS TO DO. Do NOT ask permission to do things, do NOT make her make all the decisions, do NOT keep your opinions to yourself just because they contradict hers. She wants to know what YOU like too. +If you want to go out with your friends on Friday night phrase it as, ""Hey, I think me and the boys are getting together on Friday night for a guys night. Just wanted to let you know."" +PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't say ""Honey, is it ok if I go out on Friday night with the guys?"" You're a big boy, make your own decision. +The only time it is acceptable (and mandatory in fact) to ask permission is if you're canceling something with her. And then it better be a damn good reason for canceling. +Do not always ask what she wants to do for dinner. Or if you are going to ask, be prepared for her to say ""I don't know... what do you want to do?"" +This is not a trick question. She is honestly asking what you want to do, do not go back and ask what SHE wants to do. It is time for YOU to make the decision. +Now, that said, YOU STILL CONSIDER HER DURING THE DECISION MAKING PROCESS. If you know that she HATES Mexican food (because it makes her gassy, she hates spicy, WHATEVER the reason) you do not then suggest a Mexican restaurant just because you love it. A restaurant that serves Mexican AND other food is acceptable. But she wants to know that you are going to consider what SHE likes as well, that you care enough to remember what she does and doesn't like and that you care enough about HER to factor that in. And of course, don't forget to make sure that it's a place you'll like too (although you do get extra points if you choose her favorite restaurant). +Oh, as a sidenote, an acceptable question after she says ""I don't know, what do you want to do?"" is to ask, ""Are you in the mood for anything in particular?"" And she will then give you her preferences. And because you asked, you had better honor them. +The problem with most nice guys is, they're TOO nice. They don't want to take a step forward without knowing that it's ok... hey, it's cute sometimes when guys make mistakes. And it keeps things interesting (as long as the mistake isn't gigantic). Also, getting flowers, chocolates, jewelry... all very cliche. And not that we don't appreciate it, but after awhile it just seems commonplace... mix it up a bit. Personally, I get all tickled when my boyfriend PICKS a flower and brings it home and i have no idea what it is but he picked it cuz it was purple and he thought I'd like it. And I do. +Most women don't want to make the decisions all of the time. They don't want their guy constantly asking permission to do things. But they DO want to be taken into consideration when the guy makes decisions. +Now, along with the flowers/chocolate/etc... BIG BIG THING. DO NOT EVER buy them because you've done something bad. Or because you know we're upset at you. If you buy them because you already know we're upset it just seems manipulative and ruins the gesture. If you get them when you've done something bad and you're bringing them along to your confession, it just means that the gesture becomes LESS then meaningless. And either way it means you think we can be bought. +I understand that it's not how guys see it... but honestly, getting presents because of either of those feelings is actually hurtful. And it makes us see you in a lesser light, to think that we'd be less upset because of those things. It's like putting a band-aid over a cut that needs stitches... and it makes us feel like you don't care about what's actually going on. +That being said... DON'T forget about the little things. Not all the time of course, but every once in awhile it IS nice to get flowers. Not huge bunches necessarily, but just a single flower, picked or bought, either way. A little note in our wallet that says ""I'm thinking of you"". Keep track of the little things, and keep the big romantic gestures for special occasions. And no matter what, show that you always have our likes and dislikes in mind. +Little things that guys can do: +Send a text message/email/ecard sometime during the day that just says ""Thinking of you"" or ""I love you"" +bringing home dessert... our favorite dessert +leaving a Hershey kiss somewhere that we'll find it +little touches or hugs throughout the day +a foot or back or full body massage +etc. etc. +Seriously, little things. They usually cost from nothing to very very little. But they mean the world. +Now this is something that a lot of guys don't always realize. The phone is important. Use it. And if you say that you are going to call at a certain time, you had better not forget. You know why? Because we're watching the clock. We're sitting there waiting. We might be doing something else as well to keep our hands and minds busy... but we're waiting. For us, it's like a date... and if you're late it's like showing up late for a date. And if you don't call at all... +When you say you're going to call at a certain time, it is a date. Treat it as such. Or just say ""I'll call you later"" (and try to make sure it's not TOO much later or you still get in trouble). +One of the most important things that men don't realize, is that it is NOT just an action that upsets us. Forgetting to call, not listening when we're pouring out our hearts, checking out another women when you're on a date with us, choosing a restaurant that we hate... It's not the action. It's the reason behind the action... because to most women, what all those things say is: +""I Don't Care About You."" +Actions speak louder than words, and if you do something that upsets her, chances are it's because for some reason it showed that you didn't care - about her, about her feelings, her opinions. Whatever. It shows a lock of consideration and courtesy. +When we get upset and we sit you down and tell you, chances are we will start telling you WHY we're upset. +And chances are you will react with something like, ""I KNOW, I KNOW, I messed up, I get it, WHY do we have to go over HOW I messed up again?"" +Because if we don't, and you don't understand WHY what you did upset us, then you will do it again. Not the same action, but something that sends off the same message, and then we'll be REALLY upset because to us it's a repeat offense although YOU still think it's something completely new. It's not. +I recently got into a fight with my boyfriend because he said he was going to call me after rehearsal and he didn't. In fact, I realized my phone was turned off and called HIM, thinking I was an awful girlfriend because I hadn't even realized that my phone was off and he must have called and not been able to get through and I call him ready to apologize... and he hadn't called. Not only hadn't he called, but he wasn't coming home. He was staying to play a game of Capture the Flag with his castmates. Normally something I wouldn't have a problem with, but it was already 11:30pm and once I realized that he hadn't called I realized that he wasn't even planning on calling. +Faux Pax #1: He forgot that he said he would call. He forgot = he doesn't care about me = i was going to be sitting up waiting for his call while he played a game. +Now, that's bad enough, trust me. But then I got upset and he asked me what I wanted... and I said I wanted him to come home. He said ""Well... we're already at the field."" +Faux Pax #2: He asked what I wanted and then brushed it off. A second instance of showing that he didn't care about me, because he didn't care about what I wanted even though he'd asked. +I got upset, started crying (Hey, I was sick and over emotional and lonely and I'd been alone ALL day waiting for him) and said ""FINE."" And hung up. Five minutes later, I realized that he had not called back. I realized that he was going to stay there and play the game and not call back and not come home until after he'd played with his friends. +Which is like multiple faux pax's all at once. And after a week where I'd already told him a couple times that I was feeling neglected, having THAT happen... I was ready to break up with him. When I called and told him that I needed him to come to my place NOW or never come again at all, he got very upset that I would do that just because he hadn't called and because he wanted to play with his friends. +What he didn't realize was that every single thing he had done that night had sent ME a message of ""I don't care about you."" and ""I care about myself more than I care about you."" and ""I don't care that you're upset and hurting."" +Worst of all, when I was trying to tell him why I was upset over the phone, he did not leave to come home right away. He kept trying to say things that would allow him to stay and play the game - which had not started yet. And he kept asking if I REALLY wanted him to come home, which to me just said that HE didn't want to come home, which at this point was really not an option if he still wanted to be with me. +Some of you may think I overreacted, and I did a little, but I had already told him twice that week that I was feeling neglected, I had been sick all week, had no one to take care of him, and I had been alone in my house all day by myself since he had left that morning at 10am. 10am-11:30pm I was alone. And tired because I was sick and still waiting up for him. +At any rate, if a girl feels like you DON'T CARE, she will not want to stay in the relationship. Period. +Just some little tidbit ground rules: +\- If we hang up because we're upset, CALL US RIGHT BACK. If you don't, it shows that you don't care we're upset. And maybe it's stupid and maybe it's a testing thing, and if you don't like it then don't call back, but I can guarantee you it's more trouble than it's worth if you actually like this girl. Just call back. +\- Try not to check out other girls when we're out with you. You don't have to be perfect, just try. +\- Never ever ever forget a date. Or our birthdays. +\- Always offer to pay, if she says NO twice, then let her pay but make a deal that you get to pay next time (date offer too!). +\- If we answer ""I'm Fine"" in an angry tone of voice, you're in trouble. If we say it in an upset tone of voice you are in a LOT of trouble. If our voice is neutral, you need to get on your knees and very quickly figure out what it is you did so wrong. +\- We know when you're attracted. We can tell when you're about to kiss us. We can tell when the proposal is coming. We can also tell when you're lying. +\- Try not to ask her if she's mad at you EVERY TIME you speak to her. Actually, if you THINK she might be mad, try to find out WHY and do something about it. +\- If she says she's cold, don't be an idiot and say ""me too"" and stand there, give her your jacket or just simply hold her in your arms. +\- don't cheat. ever. +\- don't check out our sister or best friend. a VERY bad idea. +And this is a list of things that I received from a male reader of things NOT TO DO (his contribution to this piece): +\- Just because I'm hard doesn't mean she's in the mood. +\- No, she doesn't want a 3 some with the hot looking chick from the bar. (Even if it would be smokin!) +\- Don't fondle her breasts 15 minutes after she has told you about how much her head hurts. +\- Just because she has told this story before doesn't mean it might not contain a new fact or 2 that you will need to know at a later date. +\- Just because what she is telling you is long and boring doesn't mean its not important. +\- Ask before you jump in the shower with her. +\- She's your wife/girlfriend/partner not your sex slave, Mom, or maid. +\- Just because your doing what she wants to do tonight, if you are a prick, you score no points (and probably loose points!) +\- Just because you saw or read it on the internet doesn't mean she wants to try it (or discuss it in some instances) +\- NEVER refer to her sister as the ""sperm burping gutter slut""! +Anyway, I hope this helps some of you in some way... women are hard, I know that. Trust me, men are hard too. I really wasn't kidding when I said that I would love it if a man wrote something like this for us ladies... I realize that all the stuff in here seems like a lot of work, but trust me it's worth it. First of all, the better you treat her and the more in tune with her that you seem to be, the better she will treat you. +I am definitely not saying that the men should do all the work, what I am saying is that I know a woman's mind a lot better than I know a man's, and I do not feel qualified to write a guide similar to this for the ladies. I think it's something a man should do. +But yeah, I hope it helps, I hope you found something useful, and I wish you all the best of luck with your relationships!" +266,Homemade Pussy Device,ErnstBlofeld,How To,2001-10-26,2001-10-26,2022-01-04 08:29:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/homemade-pussy-device,How to make an artificial vagina using a plantain banana.,"['Cock', 'Cock Fit', 'Sheath Cock', 'Vagina', 'West Indian']",4.18,"The plantain vagina in my opinion has to be the best homemade male masturbation device that I have ever used. Forget about buying expensive artificial vaginas that are out on the market. Most of them hardly work at all, they don't satisfy, and they will lighten your wallet! Unfortunately, men don't have the sensual luxury women have in that they can use a myriad amount of vibrators, dildoes, double dongs, and even cucumbers to get off on. Sure, men can stick a dildo or butt plug up their asses, but if they are not inclined towards the anal arts, then what's the use? +The plantain vagina is not only natural, but it's inexpensive! The plantains go for about 3 or 4 per U.S. dollar. Plantains can be found in the United States in Hispanic (Latin American) bodegas (a Spanish store) or markets, and if you live near either a Puerto Rican, Cuban, Mexican, Dominican community you will always find tons of plantains so cheap that you would think they're giving them away! +For our randy British wanker cousins, you chaps can go into any West Indian market in your UK towns to find plantains. All West Indian people like Jamaicans, Barbarians, Bahamians, and even Brazilians eat and love plantains. Similarly in the US, and Canada plantains can also be found in West Indian / Jamaican markets if you have them in your towns. Many regular super markets also carry plantains, and I have even seen them at a ""Lucky's"" super market in Orange County, California when I was visiting that part of the country. +To start,7 let's get some things straight. +According to the University of Florida, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, plantains are classified thusly: +""Plantains are hybrid bananas in which the male flowering axis is either degenerated, lacking, or possesses relicts of male flowers. Plantains are always cooked before consumption and are higher in starch than bananas."" +The fruit you want to get for the plantain vagina is not the common banana that is eaten as is. Common bananas are too small and would break if you put your cock in them. You want to use the fruit that is usually cooked – but in our case, we are not going to cook it, but instead we are going to look for one that is at the right stage of ripeness to make your vagina. The following list underneath can give you an idea of the right plantain to pick at the perfect stage. +Green Plantain: Not the one to use! Starchy with a taste more comparable to a potato. Use in recipes that require a starchy vegetable taste. Pulp is ivory color and firm and too hard for a vagina like feel. +Yellow Plantain: This is the one to use for the plantain vagina! Yellow skin may be freckled with black spots. The pulp inside is semi soft to soft and it can be easily pushed out. +Black: Not the one to use! Too soft and yucky looking. The black stage ranges from heavy black spotting to a fully black plantain. +So, as a reminder we want to use the yellow plantain with freckled black spots. This plantain has the right amount of ripeness to fool your cock into believing that it's in a real pussy! +Ok, so now we know which plantain to get! Follow these instructions to create the ultimate in natural masturbation technology! +1\. Go to the market and look for plantain that is fairly large in size. Pick a plantain that you can visualize your erect cock fitting snuggly inside. Make sure the plantain is somewhat ripe. If not too ripe, take it home and put it in a brown paper bag so that it could ripen for about a couple of days. Wash the outside of the plantain with some mild soap if you want. Dry it with paper towels. +2\. The plantain should be ready to use when the outside skin is not too green or not too black. It should be somewhat yellow with a little black spots here and there. It should also be somewhat soft to the touch. +3\. The banana leaf consists of a long, tube-like structure called a sheath. Your cock will go inside the sheath. To accomplish this, you cut the end tip of the plantain that is large enough for your cock to fit into. Not too loose, and not too tight that your cock won't fit into it. When you have cut the end to a size that you think will fit your cock, you then squeeze out the plantain pulp. Gently squeeze the pulp starting at the front and work your way towards the top. It's a good idea to squeeze the pulp out in sections using a soft squeezing motion. We don't want to break the plantain skin. +4\. When all the pulp has been squeezed out, your plantain vagina is ready to use. Since you are going to be pumping it furiously we recommend that you punch a few little holes towards the top of the plantain. The reason we do this is for some of the air inside the plantain to escape when you are thrusting in and out. If the holes are not punched, there will be air pockets, and the plantain will have a tendency to break. +5\. How do you use the plantain vagina? First, lube your cock. The walls of the plantain contain a deliciously slippery natural substance that feels like the inside of a real vagina. All you have to do is wet your cock with a little water or spit. Saliva is the best lubricant to use, although one can use KY or Astroglide mixed with a little spit. Believe it when we say it – this will be one of the best orgasms you will ever have. It's simple, you lube your hard cock, then you insert it into the opening of the plantain. At this moment, you slide your cock into the sheath as if you had a condom on. After this you will use both your hands to move the sheath up and down your cock until you feel like your are going to climax. The orgasm is unbelievable! +One can also run the plantain skin under hot water to emulate the temperature of a real vagina. This is optional. In addition, one can place the plantain skin between a mattress or anything that will hold it in place. By doing this, your hands can be free, and you can pump it in the usual way you fuck a pussy. +Don't be alarmed if your cock is covered in some of the plantain pulp. The pulp contains natural enzymes and proteins that will only lubricate and nourish your cock. +Please let us know how your plantain vagina worked out!" +267,"Honey, I Have a Headache",ElaraCollins,How To,2012-04-14,2012-04-14,2022-01-04 08:29:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/honey-i-have-a-headache,30 REAL reasons a woman doesn't want sex.,"['Advice', 'Honey', 'Husband', 'I Have A Headache', 'Relationship', 'Relationship Advice', 'Romance', 'Self-Help', 'Sex Advice', 'Wife']",4.23,"Sometimes real honesty is more difficult than what we end up saying. So, if you've ever wanted to know the truth, here are the real answers behind ""I'm tired."" Or ""Honey, I have a headache."", and YES, I am aware that some of these also apply to both sexes. +30 of the REAL reasons women don't want to have sex: +1\. Because you didn't do the dishes. Daily chores are a major mood killer. It would be nice if they were already done for us. (See number 11...we would be thrilled if anything on that list was done for us.) We know you are gone at work all day. So are we. Unless you can afford for us to quit our jobs and be a ""perfect"" 50's housewife, get those hands soapy every once in a while! The less time we have to spend cleaning up after you, the happier we will be to spend time doing other things with you, or shall I say...to you. +2\. You are too hairy, sweaty or there is a weird smell coming from down there. Take a shower first, then we may consider it. Women, in general are very cleanliness oriented. If you haven't showered, don't even think about it. +3\. You flirted with the waitress and it made me upset. Really guys...unless the woman is so drop-dead-gorgeous even WE notice and comment to YOU, don't bother asking for sex an hour later. If you are still clueless as to WHY...it's because we want to know WE are the only women in your world. The only one you look at that way. +4\. I feel fat and I am so not in the mood. This isn't so much about what we weigh, but how we feel about ourselves. You have the power to make us feel beautiful, no matter how high that number on the scale creeps up. So if you want to get lucky, you can make us feel lucky (and beautiful) by saying something sweet about our appearance. +5\. I have B.O. so I don't want you near me. Let me take a shower first...and shave, and wash up 'down there' and brush my teeth. Hint... as a common courtesy, you should do the same. This especially applies to us (and to you) after retuning from the gym. +6\. You aren't paying enough attention to foreplay. We know after ten seconds of kissing you are pretty much ready to go at it like rabbits, but women like a little more build up to really get going...but trust me...once you take the time, we can go and go and go...like the energizer bunny. +7\. I really don't want to give you a blowjob. If it's not smelling funky or overly hairy (which is a total turn off...see number 2.) then it could be we just can't handle being gagged and choked when you grab our hair and start humping away. I don't know about other ladies, but if I'm going to be going down there, I want to be the one in control. So lay back and enjoy and let me do it my way. If you're, let's say more than averagely generous in that department, it can be intimidating. Like it or not, not every woman can deep throat without panicking or gagging. If we want to do it, we will...if not, don't try to force us to do it, or, chances are, you won't be getting any ever again. +8\. Because I don't want to do it the minute you walk in the door like you expect. Take ten or twenty minutes to actually TALK to your woman. You'll get a lot farther if you show some interest in her as a person first. +9\. Because you've been a pervert all day and it's annoying. Sometimes a woman just wants you to hold her hand, or give her a hug and show some affection without being mauled or insulted. Unless your lady gets off on dirty talk, be a gentleman. If you honestly don't know how to talk to a woman like she isn't staring in a porn film, that is a sign you have a major porn addiction and there are programs for sex addicts. Get some help. +10\. I'm hungry -- and not for sex. We aren't really going to enjoy anything if we are so hungry our tummy is growling, or on the flip side, if we ate a very heavy dinner and our tummy is hurting. In that case...wait a couple of hours for the food to digest a bit. +11\. Because I'm tired. Seriously...I don't know if it's partially the hormonal ups and downs (which can be exhausting by itself) or because we try to do too much in one day (get up at the crack of dawn, make food, cart the kids off to school, go to work, deal with annoying people all day, run errands, go pick up the kids, put away groceries, help the kids with homework, make more food, break up a sibling squabble, clean the kitchen, put the kids to bed. That doesn't even include PTA meetings, dentist appointments, Karate lessons, visiting with your mother, taking the dog for a walk or paying the bills, balancing the checkbook, doing laundry, chatting with the unexpected guests, getting stains out of the carpet, unclogging Jimmy's toy that he tossed in the toilet, volunteering to bake 300 cupcakes for the school bake sale or weeding the flower garden)...we barely have enough energy to shower at the end of the day, much less be all frisky with you every single night. We really ARE tired and just want to sleep. Furthermore...a constantly stressed out woman WILL have headaches, nutritional deficiencies (that cause low energy or low sex drive), or random mood swings. 9 times out of 1O, THIS STUFF why she is cranky. If you want your lady to relax, get your mom to baby sit for a weekend, or offer to take the kids to a movie or the park so she can have a few hours to herself. Or at the very least, offer to rub her feet while you're sitting there watching TV together. +12\. Because you're drunk and I'm not, and groping doesn't turn me on. If the only time you show any interest in us is after you down a six pack (or two), just forget about it. You are so drunk you'd have sex with a tree stump, and that doesn't make us feel desired or sexy. +13\. I don't feel sexy. Sometimes we just want a massage or a (sincere) compliment...or even just not to be nagged at about whatever stupid chore we didn't manage to get to today. If you treat your woman like a maid or your mother, instead of your lover, she isn't going to feel sexy. +14\. Because I have no interest in sex at all. Most likely, (especially after a baby) it's a hormonal flux issue. It will pass. When a woman's hormones are balanced right, she has a healthy sex drive, and probably wants sex just as often as you do. There are natural, safe, herbal remedies to help women with hormone issues. They really do work. +15\. Everyone's been up my ass all day, the kid, the dog, the boss, I don't want you there, too. I just want to be alone. There are a lot more demands put on a woman to be the perfect wife, mother and employee than most men realize...everything we do is for our husband, or kids, or the boss or our parents, or our Church, or the pets. We are constantly taking care of everyone...sometimes we just want to be left alone, for a few minutes of peace and quiet, away from the pressures of the day. Don't get us wrong...we really do love you and everyone but honestly...we aren't superwoman...no matter how hard we try to be. Bonus points if you take care US for a while. ;) +16\. Because you're being an asshole. Treating your lady like she's a whore or ignoring her, laughing at her, or using crude language is not a turn on to a woman. You can act like that with your buddies, but when you're with a woman, at least PRETEND to have some common decency. +17\. Because you're being rough in a mean way. Some women like to be bit or have their hair pulled, or rubbed really rough. Most women prefer a more gentle touch, at least to start out with. If it hurts, we aren't enjoying it. This is also another reason we don't like to have sex with you when you're drunk. Try pretending your fingers are like feathers, or use your teeth very, very gently. If we say OW, or STOP...don't ignore us. You might get smacked upside the head instead of what you really want. +18\. I masturbated today. I've had enough. Sorry boys...we do it too, and sometimes we do it so well for ourselves, we don't want you fumbling around down there trying to figure it out after we have already been satisfied. However, if you pout enough, maybe next time we will let you watch. :) +19\. Because I can't orgasm and I don't feel like faking it right now. Ok, here's the deal...some women can't relax enough, or have had some kind of sexual trauma and just can't get there. Sometimes it's just that we don't have the sexual maturity or experience to enjoy it enough. Sometimes, you're just not touching us just the right way long enough to reach the stars...and we don't want you to feel self conscious or BAD about it. Secretly, we feel inadequate about not being able to orgasm as easily or quickly as men can. You can help us out by being understanding and helping us to talk about it without making us feel guilty for admitting it. Also, if she really responds to some specific stimuli, don't freaking stop or change the pressure or speed unless she asks you to. +20\. Because you aren't hard. For whatever reason, if you can't get it up, it's not that exciting for us either. However, we can work together to solve the problem, be it emotional, physical, mental or whatever. Whatever you do, don't shut your woman out. It will only make her feel rejected and unloved. Talk about it and come up with a solution as a couple. Please don't be ashamed or embarrassed about it. There are TONS of things that could cause ED and many different approaches to find a remedy. In most cases, it's a very temporary issue. +21\. Because loafing around the house in your boxers while you scratch your balls doesn't make me hot. Try asking her instead, what about you makes her hot...what makes her want you BAD, right NOW. You may be surprised at the answer. +22\. I'm on my period. I am aware that some men don't mind having sex at this time of the month...however, most women are at least a bit self conscious about it. Remember how women are generally into cleanliness? Not only is it actually painful for us (things are a bit over sensitive, in addition to cramps) for a few days, but it's kind of gross to us that you would even be interested in sex when we have our periods. +23\. Because I wish the time you just spent playing your Xbox you were playing with me instead. Unless your woman is just as much into Call of Duty or WoW or whatever game it is, chances are, Mr. Gamer...you've been ignoring your woman too much. Put down the controller and go spend some time with a girl. If she goes to bed before you and you stay up until 3 am playing games, she is NOT going to be happy you woke her up for some nookie. +24\. Because you don't want to do it how I want and I don't feel like explaining. Try this: Sometime BEFORE you plan on getting busy, when the two of you aren't busy doing other stuff...just ask her outright, one of her fantasies about how you would make love to her. Then next time (not right then) do it EXACTLY how she describes. Secretly, we all WANT to be able to tell you, but we don't want to be made fun of, or risk damaging your ego. +25\. I fantasized about an ex today. I can't do it with you right now. Yikes...ok...so unless you have NEVER EVER thought about being with an ex again OR fantasizing about (insert super hot Hollywood star or Super Model here) ...you can understand right? Women are relational creatures, and sometimes our thoughts wander to past relationships we have had. So, if the sex was pretty good...we might end up fantasizing a little. It's not like we can TELL you that's the reason, but we don't want to be feeling guilty thinking about being intimate with an ex in the past, while you are trying to make love to us. It's just...awkward. +26\. Five minutes ago you were basically ignoring me. Now you want to have sex? No. Really guys...this one should be a no brainer. No woman wants to spend the day being totally ignored by the man she is in love with, and then expected to perform sexual favors on demand. +27\. Because I don't think you love me. Every woman wants to be irresistible to you...but if she doesn't think you find her irresistible, she isn't going to feel very affectionate. A woman knows when a man really, really loves her. Trust me. If she isn't feeling it, make sure she knows. Tell her, but more than that...SHOW her you love her. Compliment her, spend time with her, bring her a small gift, do something for her without being asked, touch her in a not sexual way (rub her shoulders, hug her, hold her hand, kiss her on the forehead etc.) bring her flowers...even if it's a silly flower, like a bunch of dandelions. She will most likely still smile. +28\. Someone else is more important to you than I am. If you spend more time with your mother, your best friend, or your fantasy football league, or your car...think twice before expecting your woman to spend time with you sexually. We understand that you work hard, and need a break from stuff to have a little fun, but if we are consistently coming in last on your priority list, you might find yourself removed from our life altogether. +29\. I don't like intercourse. Believe it or not, the actual act of intercourse isn't always as exciting for women as it is for men. Some women (most actually) can not climax from simple penetration. We need some clitoral stimulation to reach that peak, which is usually why women prefer more foreplay than men. For us it's the most enjoyable part. Also, for penetration we need to be properly aroused for things to be, shall we say, more fluid. The wetter the better, for everyone involved. Try changing up the rhythm and asking your woman what feels best to her. Don't feel bad about it. The more she tells you what REALLY pleases her, the more pleased she will be, which means she will want to have sex with you more often. So, if you do have an issue with ED, focus on the foreplay. If you can make her climax a dozen times without penetration, trust me, she won't care so much about what you can't do. +30\. I'm in love with someone else. Ouch...sorry guys. This one is non negotiable. If a woman is really and truly in love with someone else (from her past or maybe she found a new guy) there isn't much you can do to change her mind...because it isn't her mind that changed, her heart did. For a woman, having sex with a man she doesn't truly love is not nearly as fulfilling to her as making love with the man she gave her whole heart to. It's got very little to do with skills you have or may not have. It's all emotional. For men, I assume if they are not really in love with the woman, they aren't going to do much more than the minimum requirement to satisfy a woman's sexual needs, before their own gratification. A man who is truly in love will do whatever it takes to make sure his woman is COMPLETELY sexually satisfied. It's the same with a woman...she will only be minimally interested in having sex with you, and not put much enthusiasm into it. If either partner is really in love with another person, I suggest, in this case, ending the relationship and finding someone you can be truly happy with, or at least sexually compatible. +There you have it men...the brutally honest truth about why your woman may be resisting your advances. +* + _If you want, send me an email and tell me the top five or ten reason YOU wouldn’t want to have sex with your woman.

I hope you enjoy reading it almost as much as I enjoyed writing it! Happy reading!_ +* +First things first, I like to start when I shouldn't. One of my very favorite times is when my guy is on the phone...I like to surprise him and give him a challenge to keep his voice even, so that whoever he's talking to won't suspect a thing. So, when he's sitting in a chair, for instance, I'll get up, under the pretense of retrieving something, and when I return I'll settle on the floor between his knees. Often, I'll keep my attention elsewhere for a few minutes, and then, slowly (and quietly, sneakily if possible) I'll turn to face him, lean in, and gently brush my lips over his still clothing clad cock. It will, inevitably, jump a bit with the pleasure and surprise. Now he knows what's coming, and his face will show it: a beautiful contortion of restraint and longing; knowing that he should tell me to wait, but unable to do so. That look...it always urges me forward. +Slowly, I reach up and undo his belt, my lips still pressed against his now slowly stiffening dick. As I unbuckle, unbutton, and unzip, I make sure to let my fingers brush against the ridge as well, the pressure from my fingertips increasing slightly with my progress. Throughout these moments, I'm fortunate enough to be able to inhale deeply, taking in his scent, my mind flying forward to the moment I'll finally be able to taste him. But, I force restraint upon myself, and continue to go slowly. +Careful not to actually touch his penis, I slip my hand into his now open pants, aware of his audible sigh; a mixture of relief and slight frustration as I'm not touching him now. With my head resting on his belly, and hand happily in his pants, I trace around the base of him with my finger tip, slowly, before wrapping my hand around his shaft and giving a gentle squeeze. I squeeze harder, and give a slow stroke from the base of his shaft to the head, letting my thumb gently stroke over the head. I encounter a drop of pre- cum, and slip my thumb into it, through it, creating a silky trail around the tip that I long to taste. With my head resting against his body, I can feel him holding his breath, so as not to utter sounds that would give him away to his friend on the telephone. Reluctantly, I back my thumb away from the oh-so- sensitive tip of his cock, and give his shaft another firm, tight fisted stroke. +Right about now, he often tries to end his phone conversation, knowing that then he'll be able to more vocally enjoy my attentions that way. I, however, want to make him squirm just a bit more, so as he's starting the goodbye process, I promptly remove my hand from his cock. Instead, I lightly caress his balls, enough so that he knows I'm not going anywhere, but also making him aware that it's in his best interest to keep talking. (This is the one area of our sex life where I like to have the upper hand sometimes...typically I prefer to submit to my guy, but when it comes to giving him head, I occasionally enjoy drawing it out and keeping him in my clutches!). He takes hint and resumes his conversation, and I immediately reward him by bringing my other hand to his pants, so that I can return to stroking his cock once again, while still giving his testicles attention as well. +I continue this for several minutes, stroking and squeezing his full testicles, occasionally giving them a gentle tug, as I simultaneously jerk his cock, occasionally giving the tip extra attention with my thumb, whenever pre- cum begins to accumulate there. Then, as I start to feel that he's adjusting to the attention, and not struggling with his composure anymore, I let myself slip down, so that my mouth can finally skim over the familiar flesh. My closed lips experience the heat that's radiating from his shaft, the wetness from the tip, and the pulsing from the head. As much as I might like to tease him further, I can't keep torturing myself. I let my lips part, and (finally!) feel the perfect sensation of his cockhead slipping between them. I can't keep my tongue from gliding over the same spot my thumb previously attended to, happily tasting the pre-cum that has beaded up. I gently probe the hole there, and then trace the ridge with my tongue, sucking easily on the head, while still jerking his dick with my hand. +I continue that for a few moments, savoring the taste that's always familiar and new, comforting and exciting. Very soon, though, I want, and need, more, and can no longer content myself with sucking on only the head. So on the next downward stroke, I let my lips follow my hands further down his shaft, and even further still, until my hand hits the base, and I release it. As I let go with my hand, I suck harder with my mouth, sucking furiously as I pull away. I drag my tongue along the underside of his cock, and then massage the head, hard, causing him to pull the phone away and cover it, as he lets out a groan of pleasure. +When I suck his cock back into my mouth this time, I do it quickly and take it deep, all the way, until the head is pressing against the back of my throat. I make myself keep going, to a point just short of gagging (thank God for my lack of gag reflex!), until my lips are wrapped tightly around the base. I push my head forward a couple of times, grinding his cock into my throat, feeling it spasm around the familiar pleasant invasion. As I sneak my tongue out, licking his balls, I hear him give a hurried goodbye into the phone. I know he's done talking when I hear him let out a very audible moan, and, at the same time, he pushes his hips up into my face, pressing even more tightly into my throat. +His sounds of pleasure, combined with the fact that sucking his cock turns me on more than almost anything else, is making me start to squirm. Unable to resist, I sneak a hand into my pajama pants, and, feeling the immense wetness and heat, I am compelled to give my pussy a long stroke. As I tease myself, I work even harder on him. I settle into an easy routine, sucking in quickly and deeply, each time deepthroating this thick cock, as I stroke my clit. Then, I pull away slowly, but sucking hard, as I finger my pussy with a single finger, which is enough to feel good, but leaving me craving more. +Suddenly, he pushes me off of him, gently enough not to hurt me, but firmly enough to know that my time of taking charge in this is over, and it's his show now. He stands, takes my hand, and leads me upstairs, to our bedroom. He undresses me quickly, and finishes undressing himself, before he lies down on the bed and motions for me to join him. As I climb onto the bed, he pulls me up, so that I'm straddling his face, and then he pushes my back down, instructing me, without words, to get back to work. +I obey, happily, and start to ease back into the blowjob, but the instant his tongue connects with my flesh, it's like an invisible force is pushing me forward, forcing me to work harder, faster, and more diligently than before. I get closer to gagging on each stroke, somehow seeming to take his cock deeper, feeling my throat tighten each time I taste his balls with my tongue. At the same time, I can't help but respond to the excitement of nearly gagging on his dick, and I grind my pussy against his face. It soon becomes a vicious cycle, the deeper I take his cock into my throat, the more excited he becomes and the deeper he pushes his hips into my face. This, in turn, excites me further, and I can't help but grind against his talented tongue, which seems to urge him forward even more, causing me to suck harder.... And so it continues. +As his cock starts to spasm and jerk more frequently, I give more attention to his balls, with my hand; squeezing and tugging them with one hand. I return my other hand to his cock, and make sure that my mouth is pressed tightly to my wrapped thumb and index finger. By now, his cock is deliciously slick, with a mixture of my saliva and his pre-cum, and, using my hand as an extension of my mouth, I jerk him off hard and fast. At the end of each downward stroke, my hand flattens against his pelvis so I can deepthroat him for a brief moment, before pulling away, my hand gripped as tight as possible. I suck hard with my mouth as I pull up and away, my tight hand pulling his skin up and over the head of his dick, eliciting groans and bucking hips. Within minutes of this, I know he's ready to cum, and so I manage to squeeze my hand even a little tighter, so tightly that my hand almost aches. As his tongue furiously strokes my clit, and dives deeper into my pussy, I match him stroke for stroke, deepthroating him in rhythm with his tonguing. I keep jerking him off as his cock starts to spasm, harder and faster when his balls tighten in my hand. His hips surge forward, and as soon as I feel the first shot of his thick cum blasting the back of my throat I hold my head as tightly to him as possible. I let him grind his cock into my throat, hard and deep, feeling his thicken and jerk, filling my throat with each shot. I might gag once or twice, but I think the spasms of my throat muscles only cause him to cum even harder. I refuse to pull my mouth away until his cock starts to relax a little, savoring the change of rock hard to slightly softer against my cheeks and tongue. Meanwhile, I let my tongue trace every inch of him, licking up every inch, not letting any of his cum go to waste. +Knowing that my own orgasm will come soon enough, I relax on top of him, letting his cock slip from my lips, but leaving my face against him, resting my cheek on his dick, still unable to leave it. Perhaps because I know that as soon as he starts licking me again, I'm going to need to feel him slipping between my lips once again." +271,How (Not) to Dirty Talk in German,Munachi,How To,2006-05-15,2006-05-15,2022-01-04 08:29:40,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-not-to-dirty-talk-in-german,"or, How linguistics can interfere with sex.","['Dirty Talk', 'German', 'Grammar', 'Language', 'Language Problems']",4.44,"_Disclaimer: The writer of this text might or might not have had sex with all the persons she mentioned. The situations might or might not be part of her personal experience – or her imagination. In fact, you can't even know if she's really a she. Only she knows that._ +*** +In fact, I am not the right person to write a text about dirty talk in German. There are two reasons for that: +Firstly, I am not a big fan of dirty talk. I don't say much when I am enjoying myself during sex, at least nothing much coherent. I don't mind the guy saying something, as long as it's not really distractive or silly. For example, I once had a one night stand with a Spanish guy who throughout the whole 15 or so minutes he lasted, kept shouting out _""Me encanta! Me encanta!""_ which translates into something like ""I love it! I love it!"" Happy though I was that he was enjoying himself, after about the third time he said this it started getting on my nerves. I was glad when he came because it meant he would shut up at last. +Secondly, my sexual vocabulary in German is surprisingly small, even though German is my native language, the one I grew up speaking and speak best to this day, and the language I most often use. Years of communication on various (mainly English and American) internet forums, and several English or Spanish speaking boyfriends, have contributed to the fact, that I speak about and during sex with much more ease in English and to a smaller extent in Spanish rather than in German. There was once a time when I could think of ten or fifteen ways to suggest to someone to go down on me in English – and only one awkward sounding phrase in German would come to my mind. +It's not like German completely lacks a sexual vocabulary. People here have sex too, and I am pretty sure they talk about it on occasion. In fact, one of my favourite sexual words is German. My first boyfriend back in the days when I still had German boyfriends, said it to me, shortly before I lost my virginity. We were lying on my bed, taking a break from the various touching and exploring of each other's bodies that we had been engaged in, and I suggested asking my parents if he could this time stay for the night. He said something like _""Wenn ich heute nacht hierbleibe, werde ich dich wohl vernaschen.""_ – „If I stay here tonight, I will ... you."" +Most people will say that _vernaschen_ is a pretty tacky and also somewhat sexist word. I like it anyway. Maybe that's because I will always associate it with the butterflies caused in my stomach by the prospect of finally going ""all the way"". + _Naschen_ is a quite common German verb. It means, according to my dictionary, ""to nibble, to eat on the sly, to have a sweet tooth"" – _naschen_ is used almost always when referring to eating candy or chocolate, but also when you, for example, while setting the table already take a small bite of that tasty cheese, because you can't wait till the meal starts. _Naschen_ is eating that isn't done to still hunger, but rather for the enjoyment of taste. +The prefix _ver-_ to me has quite a violent sound. It's found in verbs like _vernichten_ – to destroy, to annihilate; _verstecken_ – to hide away; _verlieren_ – to lose; _verlaufen_ – to get lost; _verhexen_ – to bewitch. It's often something someone does to someone or something else. Conjoining _ver_ with the sweetness of the verb _naschen_ forms, for me, an interesting contrast. +The combination of the two, _vernaschen_ , means, according to my dictionary, ""to spend on sweets"". Yes, you could use it in that way: ""Ich habe ihm fünf Euro gegeben, und er hat sie noch am selben Tag vernascht."" – „I gave him five Euro, and he spend them on sweets and ate all those sweets on the same day."" However, the more common usage of this word is, to ""have sex"" with someone. The implication being that the one doing the _vernaschen_ has the active part, while the other one is something sweet and innocent. There is a certain ravishing sound to the word, but sweeter. Back when my boyfriend used that word, it sounded to me like the implication of me being like a piece of chocolate he'd eat and enjoy, and I couldn't do anything against it. +*** +Apart from that first boyfriend, I very rarely had sexual contact with Germans – and thus no need to talk about sex in German. For many years, I went out with an American, and during that time I discovered a lot of my own sexual likes and dislikes. I thus learnt to speak about them in English. German sex words, to me, were the ones I would have used in the stupid little jokes we told each other when I was a child. They now all sounded silly and somehow wrong. +I first confronted my inability to speak about sex (and to speak during sex) in German, was during a one night stand in Paris. The guy I had the one-night stand with was staying in the same hostel as me. I had not planned to spend another night in Paris, but there had been no bus tickets for the day I had wanted, and after buying a ticket for the next day, I spent my last money on the hostel. My bank account was empty, I couldn't withdraw anything. The guy had come to Paris for a job that didn't work out and was now looking for a different job, promising the hostel owner to pay as soon as he found work. +We were both stranded and broke, maybe it was that what drew us to each other and spoilt my plans to use my feminine charms to get myself invited for dinner in a nice restaurant. We were so broke we ended up asking other backpackers in the hostel kitchen for a little bit of their bread, as we had no money for food. We were so broke that I walked for one and a half hours from the hostel to the Eurolines station the next day, because I didn't have 1.20 Euros for the Metro. We were so broke, we wandered around in the cold October wind for a few hours when we got bored in the hostel, but didn't go in anywhere for lack of money. We were so broke, we couldn't even get drunk. Sex was pretty much the only thing we could do. +And sex in a hostel has its complications – especially when you are sober enough to realize that there are other people there, too. We decided against our dormitory. Instead, we went into one of the hostel's showers: A tiny room with a stone floor and a lockable door. The guy (I have forgotten his name, all I know is that he was German, and had also been travelling for quite a while already) brought a blanket for the floor. But things in the small space of a shower tend to be a bit awkward, and the few German words we said to each other – suggestions on what the other could do, or the question of whether he liked what I was doing – added to the awkwardness. +Finally I looked into his eyes and said ""I can't do this! Listen, do you mind if I speak English to you?"" He seemed relieved at my suggestion. Just like me, he had been away from Germany for quite a while. We continued both in English. +*** +After that, I stayed away from the Germans again. +Instead, I ended up seeing a Romanian, G., who was living in Germany (after all I can't always wait until I am travelling, can I?). I would have been happy to enhance my sexual vocabulary in Romanian, but G. had been in Germany since his teenage years, and usually replied to me in German. +G. was also the only guy I have ever been with, that was really into dirty talk. When I said before that I don't mind dirty talk as long as it is not silly, I was thinking of him because most of what he said sounded quite silly to me. Because most of what he said sounded quite silly to me. More than once he called _""meine kleine geile Fick-Stute""_ – ""my little horny fuck-mare"". I always wondered, whether whinnying would have been the appropriate reply. +His dirty talk sounded like copied from a porn movie – and what was worse, copied from a German porn movie. Now, I know what the rest of the world associates with German porn, and that's not what I mean. He wasn't into any of these things. What I mean is simply that all of his dirty talk was in German. +However, since G. was not a native speaker of German, his dirty talk came with an accent. I realize many people find accents endearing, and I often think so myself. Additionally to the accent, however, there were also grammar mistakes. Again, many people appear to find grammar mistakes cute, but I study languages, and I have something of a teacher inside me it seems. I make quite a few mistakes myself, in English, Spanish, Romanian, or whatever language I am trying to speak, and I expect the native speakers to correct me. Else, how could I learn? +Additionally, I have a whole lot of friends from different countries that are living in my home town because they want to learn German. We have agreed that I should correct their mistakes when they speak German, and they correct mine when I speak their language. With time, it becomes something of an automatism. When I hear a mistake, I correct it. +Now, imagine the following situation: G. is lying on his back, I am above him, doing the things a girl does when on a bed on top of a guy. Suddenly he says one of his porn movie lines, but confuses the gender of a noun. I move up and down a few more times, getting slower. I stop, hesitate. Do I say something? No, I can't! I try to get back into rhythm, but I can't concentrate. The sound of what he said is echoing in my head, bothering me. Finally I stop again and say ""Look G., I am sorry, but I have to get this off my chest before I can continue: It's _der Schwanz. Der!_ "" +Little bit of a mood killer. +*** +As a little epilogue I would like to add that I am currently again seeing someone who is not German but has been living here for quite a while, and thus usually speaks German to me, with accent, grammar mistakes, and everything else. +He talks less during sex than G., but what he says is a lot sexier than the things G. used to say. In fact, he is in general a lot sexier than G. +However, the other day he committed quite an obvious violation against German grammar rules. For a second or two, again, I felt the sound of the words he had just uttered echoing in my head. Again, there was this bothersome urge to correct him. +The next moment, however, he thrust into me, and I am not even sure I remembered my name at that moment, let alone German grammar. +Thus, I suppose, the moral of this story is – if you want to dirty talk in German without knowing all the grammar rules, just make sure that everything else you do is distracting enough to let your mistakes go by unnoticed." +272,How I Could Enjoy Literotica,diggypop,How To,2010-11-13,2010-11-13,2022-01-04 08:29:41,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-i-could-enjoy-literotica,"...even more. (aka How to write better for Lit, or anyone).","['Story Telling', 'Writing Tips']",4.77,"Ever since I discovered the Internet, and specifically Wikipedia, I've been unable to restrain my compulsion to seek out large amounts of useless information on whatever subject happens to catch my fancy at any given moment. One of the many, many topics I have an odd curiosity about is porn versions of so-called 'straight' entertainment. +I had already been privy to the fact that a porn actress going by the name Krysti Myst had done an entire series of films in which she went by the name, 'Buffy' and the thought suddenly popped into my head, ""I bet Wikipedia will know if one of those films is a Buffy the Vampire Slayer parody!"" +Well, it turned out they had an entire page devoted to erotic versions of Buffy (a page which no longer exists, by the way), and one of them, improbably enough, was a story on Literotica entitled, ""Buffy the She-Male Vampire Slayer."" How could I resist? Of course, any time information like that gets posted on Wikipedia, it will almost certainly be tagged for failure to meet notability criteria, which is a shame, because the mere existence of a story with such a title I found damn entertaining, and therefore notable. +I should add that I have always enjoyed written erotica as soon as I was aware of it. For a bookworm like me, it was almost inevitable that my first exposure to explicit sexual material would be in the form of the written word. After all, even Playboy was behind the counter and strictly for adults, and my parent's taste in magazines leaned towards Reader's Digest and Christianity Today (although they've loosened up a lot, to be fair). +So I go to the site, and I read the story. And it is erotic, and I do enjoy it...at first. But it goes on for a while, and it starts to dawn on me that it really doesn't feel like I'm in the universe of Buffy taken a sexual twist. It feels like I'm reading a long, drawn-out series of sexual episodes (some degrading) that uses the names of characters from one of my favorite TV shows to tell a rather bizarre narrative that has neither the humor nor the layers of metaphor I look for from Buffy. +To be fair, I really had no expectations whatsoever until Buffy, newly granted male genitalia (she also keeps her female parts) thanks to her encounter with a demon, thinks to herself, ""Now's the time for me to take advantage of Willow's long-term crush on me!"" and then goes in search of her friend. Part of me really wanted to see (or read) that happen. But it was pretty obvious, given the number of chapters in the story, that if that occurred, it would be a long, convoluted journey. +I had never really been a peruser of fan fiction, although I was aware of its existence, and I was struck by the disclaimer in the 'Celebrities' section that the stories in said section constituted parodies of the copyrighted works and thus were not copyright violations. An evil idea began to dawn on me... +My first attempt at submission of material to this site was basically unsuccessful. One of the many twisted erotic fantasies I have formulated and indulged in (mentally, I mean) over the years is one based on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. For some reason, the idea of turning a girl into a blueberry has an extreme erotic charge to it. The turning blue, the swelling, the squeezing her out -- I have always wished someone would recreate this scene and sexualize it, with an adult actress of course. +With this in mind, I proceeded to write a version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in which each of the naughty children is ensnared, not in a series of traps, but in a series of sexual initiations. Of course, since this site has a strict policy about no one under 18 being involved in sexual situations (except when the editors aren't paying attention, of course) a magic spell to raise them to the proper age was necessary. +Usually, when inspiration hits me, it's more a downpour than a trickle. So at the same time, another idea hit. Use the same premise as my Wonka idea, but set it in Narnia. I had just read a number of scathing criticisms of the Narnia series, and the idea of sending them to a realm where they are confronted by truly grown up things like drugs and sex seemed a lot more moral than drafting them to fight a war, the avoidance of which is after all what had drawn the Pevensie children to that blasted house in the countryside in the first place. +While I planned the Wonka parody as a completed story, it seemed best to write the Narnia series in short chapters, as it was a longer and more involved storyline. Which is how, only three quarters of the way through writing ""Charlie and the Other Factory"" I submitted the first of my Narnia chapters. +Well, it got rejected, and although the wording of the response was a bit muddled, it seemed clear that magic spells may be all right for plunging children into scenes of bloody combat, but it simply wasn't enough of a smokescreen for Literotica to allow me to initiate Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter into the ways of sex. Even though there are erotic versions of The Wizard of Oz, Harry Potter, and Alice in Wonderland that have somehow made their way on the site, it seemed churlish to argue. +Fast forward several months, and my girlfriend noticed that I never seemed to write any more. Now, I have two novels that I've started and need to finish, but I really felt I needed a fresh start at writing. If nothing else, this site has an utter lack of pretension, and I decided to give another shot to an idea I had back when my dreams of writing scandalous versions of beloved childhood tales had been shattered. +Or, to put it better, set on the back burner. In my heart of hearts, I know if I wanted to set up my very own site with my very own dirty scribblings, I could. I would also be completely on my own in terms of generating an audience. And I would have to take ownership in a way a site like this one allows me to avoid. +Just like plenty of writers in the sixties and seventies wrote stories for pornographic publications that they didn't include on their resumes when submitting stories to the New Yorker, or even Playboy, I can write a story for this site and dismiss it as a harmless piece of fluff that has no real bearing on anything more ambitious I might do. +So I came up with the idea for an erotic version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It is derivative enough of the original that I wouldn't want to chance attempting serious publication for money, which is usually when the lawyers show up. But it is still enough of its own work to provide me a great deal of enjoyment in writing it, and I hope others equal enjoyment in reading it. +I tried specifically to match much of the tone of the original, while also creating new characters and trying for a more thorough portrayal of the inner life of each character as appropriate. Unfortunately, there's not much I can do about Ford; he's a pretty shallow character regardless. +And then, out of the blue, another idea occurred to me. It came to me from a variety of places, some crazier than others. One of my regrets is that the religion I was raised in was a very conservative, fundamentalist form of Christianity, and it took me quite a while to get over the idea that sex before marriage is a moral breach comparable with lying or stealing or even striking someone in anger. It has influenced me throughout much of my life, so why not a story? +I also have read interesting speculations about colonies such as Jonestown in Guyana, everything from ""It was a CIA plot"" to ""It was a Vatican plot"" (Yes, I know; that one's completely nuts) and find the subject fascinating. The initial ideas I had months ago of ""Let's find ways to initiate all these innocents into sex"" suddenly had an acceptable (by Literotica's standards) setting. A young man thinks he is going to a Bible summer camp to learn how to be a better Christian. But the people running the camp have a darker agenda. And so the Not Bible Camp series has been born. +It's definitely a slow burner: The main character is deliberately being manipulated to feel higher and higher degrees of sexual arousal and frustration and only his relative naivete and his own immersion in a belief system that specifically retards his sexual development make this manipulation possible. It definitely isn't an excuse to write a bunch of graphic sex scenes, unlike The Erotic Hitchhiker. +And so I am currently writing two stories on this site, one as light and fluffy as I can make it, the other I can even conceive of reworking and publishing for real, without a hint of embarrassment. And that leads me to a potentially thorny topic: the state of writing on this site, and what I think would improve it. +***** +I have seen more than one story on this site start with the disclaimer that the author wrote it for the sheer pleasure of it, and that therefore they wanted no comments on such things as spelling and grammar errors. Certainly I can't fault anyone who simply writes for the sheer pleasure of it, and to be fair, I can usually tell within a paragraph or two if the writing is to my taste or will simply irritate me. Generally when that disclaimer is in place, I seldom bother. +Let me reiterate that it doesn't irritate me that someone would write heedless of care or skill, or that they would choose to do so in such a public format. After all, this site isn't run blindly. If the admins of this site do or don't see fit to publish any story, it doesn't harm me, as long as I get relative clarity regarding what I submit (i.e. will they or won't they publish it, and why). +And I get why someone would choose to do that. Obviously they get pleasure from writing, however hastily, and they like other people telling them THEY got pleasure. They are still risking negative feedback, but the disclaimer makes it relatively unlikely, unless someone particularly cranky and/or offended comes along, and those comments are always discounted. +But occasionally someone will say they do appreciate constructive criticism, and occasionally I will even give what I feel is exactly that. I only do that if I really think the writer in question has the capacity to improve. If I haven't been able to last through two paragraphs, not only is it unfair to criticize, it seems futile. And my unwillingness to read a given story usually isn't simply due to mistakes. They can be like grains of sand, irritating but usually not derailing the impact of the story. +No, for me, what truly sinks most stories on this site are a lack of focus and a lack of conviction. Again, for many on this site, the attention to detail that I value in writing is anathema to the ends they seek from this type of writing. And that's OK. I'm not trying to stop anyone from writing whatever they damn please; like I said, I can generally detect if something isn't to my taste within a couple of paragraphs. And if I lose interest halfway in? Well the story must have had something worthwhile to keep me going that far, so no hard feelings. (Well, that's another reason to stop reading...) +I'm writing to those people that draw me in so far but no farther. Who surprise me with concise detailed descriptions, and yet still leave me bogged down in the forest of their words. Who seem to think a paragraph summing up the protagonist's past is an acceptable substitute for portraying their subject's inner life. And lastly, anyone who has heard but doesn't quite grasp the significance of ""Show, don't tell."" +***** +So here are my handy-dandy tips on How to write better for Literotica or anyone else. My advice is to take any one of these tips and play with it. Don't think of them as rules: it's not that kind of game. Imagine if you were a magician and someone said, ""If you cross your eyes when you cast the teleportation spell, you can get there an hour before you left;"" wouldn't you at least try it out? Then, if you decide you don't want to jump back in time, you don't have to. But isn't it nice to know you can? +Step 1. Know what you're writing +This isn't the same as writing what you know. Although this is WAY too simplistic, there are basically two types of stories I see on Literotica. Or rather, there are two types of stories I'm addressing in this essay. The first type is essentially erotic fantasy. This genre has gotten little respect over the years, partly because of where the majority of it has been presented: in the pages of pornographic magazines. +The classic erotic fantasy is written in the form of a letter. If the phrase ""I never thought I'd be one of the people who write in to your magazine,"" sounds familiar, then you are familiar with the form. The primary function of this type of writing is to present a sexual scenario, similar to the scenes that appear in serial pornographic films, such as the Barely Legal series. Occasionally someone will attempt a longer form, similar to 'classic' films like Deep Throat or Behind the Green Door, which attempt to string several scenes together in the form of a story, no matter how disjointed. +The point of these pieces is to present sexual episodes, not to introduce us to complex characters or convey a message. It's fine to include humor, incidental details, evocative descriptions and sharp dialogue to these stories as long as you remember the cardinal rule: if it isn't contributing to the final, climactic scene, which should always be sexual and should always be the most explicit, steamy firecracker of a scene in the entire story, than it doesn't belong. +A general rule is that historical detail, biographical detail, etc should be as brief as possible. If you can fit it all in the opening paragraph, so much the better. This goes for any detail that isn't specifically heightening the erotic appeal of the story. +For example, three paragraphs about how one's ex-wife took the kids in the divorce and the heartbreak that resulted in doesn't really belong in this kind of story. An eighteen year old girl talking about how she used to practice kissing on her pillow and how she looked at her dad's Playboy to see if her breasts were big enough, now you're talking. +Please note, just because I'm using examples that appeal more to heterosexual males, don't think they can't apply to less mainstream erotica. Your own gut is the best guide. If a page-long description of how your character cried themself to sleep every night for a month heightens the arousal factor of the story for you, then go for it. But a lot of the time, details like this appear because people want to pretend they're writing another kind of story. +The other kind of story is, in essence, all the other stories that exist. It's the stories that appear in Analog and Asimov's, Ellery Queen and Alfred Hitchcock's, Twilight Zone, Playboy, New Yorker and Harpers'. It's a story, with the only difference being that it's just a little more explicit sexually than you might find in those magazines, or even a lot more. +(About the only magazine I'm familiar with that regularly published sexually explicit stories that was neither an erotic nor a pornographic magazine was National Lampoon, and, unsurprisingly, the majority of those were humor stories, which, again, is a mainstream genre.) +My point is, in sex fantasies, the point of the story is to lead up to a climactic sex scene, sometimes with almost no preamble, and kick it up to eleven, hopefully with the result that the reader has a release of his or her own. The point of a story is, quite frankly, dependent on each story, but everything in it still needs to contribute to its intended effect, whether surprise, an emotional epiphany, a laugh, or a resolution of a moral dilemma. +In so many of the stories I've seen on this site, a perfectly good sexual fantasy is ruined by someone who's convinced that if they just put in a bunch of stuff about the character's past and how lonely they've been and how they haven't been able to trust anybody and then present the sex scene as their resolution of all these problems, they've got a real story on their hands. +And sometimes what might be a real story if there was a careful, focused attempt to include exactly what was needed and no more, becomes derailed by pornographic detail that only serves to accentuate how little effort was taken to get the actual story down properly. So once again, I reiterate: know what you want to write, and write that. If you've managed to successfully write a hot, dripping fantasy that turns you and everyone who reads it on, you have nothing to be ashamed of, unless it's really DIRTY. Then you should probably be a little ashamed. +Note: If you ARE going to write a sexual fantasy, you could do worse than looking at the classic examples. Hustler still publishes ""Hot Letters"" as part of the magazine, but the ones from the 1990s to earlier exhibit a wider range and better sense of humor. Penthouse Forum is of course legendary, but they often have a self-consciously 'respectable' veneer which I personally think gets in the way of the arousal factor. Pretty much any magazine that billed itself as 'porn' in the 70s and 80s will have lots of this stuff just because they couldn't show penetration, so they made up for it with dirty stories. +Step 2 Show, don't tell. +This is one of those cliches that has a lot of truth to it, although it's almost as important to know when to disregard it. So, to put it more directly, if it's important, make it concrete; if it's trivia, abstract it or leave it out all together. +Obviously some elements of your story need to be rendered in more detail than others. A car ride in which your mother tells you you're adopted should get a few details to bring it to life. A cab ride that's changing the scene of your bachelor party from an apartment to a strip club, not so much. +As a writer, you are God. That can be a pretty heady thrill. But we westerners have gotten a little too used to the idea that God is automatically good, rather than just powerful. The, ""It's true because I said so"" attitude can lead to a lot of lazy writing. +Anybody can write, ""Jim woke up that morning depressed."" There is an attitude behind sentences like that one, one that's often unintentional. It says, ""I don't really give a shit what it means to be depressed. If you want to know the meaning, look it up in the dictionary. I've already spent all the time I want to on how it feels to be my character."" +Contrast that with, ""Jim's eyes came open, slowly and reluctantly. He had never been so uncertain that he even wanted to get out of bed as he was that morning. He attempted to psych himself up by thinking of all the tasks he needed to perform, everything from brushing teeth to eating breakfast, but the sheer number of steps involved in getting ready for a day he didn't especially welcome made him more tired than ever."" +Remember that your job is not just to create the world of your story, but to guide your readers around in it. Have empathy for both your audience and your characters. +Note: This rule has a particular application for the sex fantasy. Any time you want your readers to see a little movie in their head, you MUST provide them with detail. Paint a picture, and don't wait until the clothes are off to do it. Unless you start with them naked, in which case the reader better be able to see everything in that bedroom, or wherever else the action happens. +3\. Every so often, ask: Who sees & who says? +There are a gazillion different perspectives one can write from. As authoritative as the omniscient third person is, it can rob your narrative of focus if you aren't careful. +One peculiarity of this universe is that for something to count as an observable fact, it must be observed. Now, there are a lot of things we count as facts that haven't been directly observed, but are merely extrapolated from things that have been. A needle jiggles and we say we've detected an electric charge. Another one jiggles and we say, ""Ah, a seismic wave!"" A tree that falls unseen may very well exist, but events in stories have to be observed by someone. +Now an invisible observer who sees everything is a useful tool in the writer's arsenal. You don't even have to credit him as a character. But if you're trying to get people to identify with your characters, you don't want your readers knowing too much more than them. It distances the characters, and can confer upon the reader the equivalent of an unfair advantage. There's a reason readers can only guess the outcome of a mystery until the end. +So every event you describe needs to be from a particular perspective. Sometimes the third-person omniscient is the best choice, but it should be a choice, not a default you aren't even conscious of. The same rule goes for narration. +Again, the third person has serious advantages. It sounds authoritative, it allows for presenting a scene from multiple perspectives without losing narrative flow, and it allows the writer to forge their own narrative voice rather than be limited to any given character's. +But if you're trying to get your audience to identify with one character in particular, letting that character's voice be the narrative one can immerse the reader thoroughly, almost frighteningly, in someone else's head. If you want to reduce the distance even further, stream of consciousness is often devastatingly effective, but it can also be exhausting for the reader. +Just remember, nobody knows everything. So if you write as one of your characters, don't just write what you know. Write only what they know. Raymond Chandler wouldn't even let his character Philip Marlowe say he was sad or happy. His pulse would race, he'd get a burning at the pit of his stomach, or his eyes would tear up. The reader then had to take it from there. +Note: With a sex fantasy, it's almost gospel that you write it from the first person perspective. This partly stems from its traditional form as a letter, often to a pornographic magazine. All I can suggest is that even if you feel like using a third-person observer, try writing it from a first-person perspective. It's also a fun exercise to write something you wrote in first- person in the third person. Remember, play doesn't have to mean putting no effort into polishing your writing. Learn to love the act of writing, and not just the outcome, and both will inevitably improve. +4\. Every paragraph has at least one job. Every sentence has at least two. +Robert Anton Wilson used to say that every sentence should carry something of the tone of the entire work, and something to make it interesting. He wasn't unnecessarily strict about it; it was always more a goal than a strict criterion. But every paragraph that goes by without even one sentence that rewards the reader for paying attention is like a sign saying, ""Just skim me; I'm not that interesting."" +The paragraph's job is convey something that the work as a whole needs. Sometimes it's pure description; sometimes it's an action that's performed; sometimes it's what a character says or thinks. Now, because of Literotica's rules about paragraphs, you may find yourself having to split one up to make sure you aren't overwhelming your reader with text. It's OK. As long as you keep the second part of this suggestion in mind. Give each sentence at least two jobs. +Ideally, you could make every sentence a piece of polished literary silver. But that's not necessary. The two jobs your sentences must carry out are: convey SOME information to the reader that builds up the paragraph as a whole; and provide a bridge from the sentence before it to the sentence after it. Obviously this is amended for sentences that begin or end chapters, or sit next to one of those breaks we signify with little stars. (Not to mention single sentence paragraphs. Either it should be a long sentence, or you should be trying for serious emphasis.) But it never hurts to pay attention to what comes before or follows regardless. +Remember, if you come across a sentence or a paragraph that doesn't seem to serve any purpose, it's almost always better to eliminate it and sew up the cracks around it as best you can. But you're going to find exceptions. Once again, this is about making choices, not being perfect. +Note: This is mainly true if you're writing a 'real' story. A sex fantasy is best when the prose doesn't overpower the sexual description. The last thing you want is for your reader to say to themselves, ""Ah, yes, I'm reading a story."" Whereas that's fine with almost any other kind of story. Just remember when the sex or the violence happens, you want the reader to focus on the action. +5\. You don't have to draw the universe if you draw the reader in. +Middle-Earth, Shannarah, Belgariad-land, these are all places where magic works and the landscape differs from our own. Both sci-fi and fantasy authors often take a certain pride in coming up with a wealth of detail for their made-up worlds, much of which won't ever be used in a story, just for the pure pleasure of creation. +But I don't need to know, for instance, the name of the 20th king of Narnia to be transported there. All I need to do is read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and follow Lucy, Edmund, and the rest along as they explore it. And the secret to creating such experiences is this. +No one notices every detail of every single experience they've had. They notice just enough for their brain to organize the data into a larger picture, and then, if their nervous system gets really excited, they get flooded with an overwhelming amount of detail. But our brains don't like to stay excited for too long, so eventually they adjust. +And that's generally all you need to draw someone into a written narrative. While you should avoid the abstract (go for ""elegant cheekbones and full lips"" over ""a really pretty face"") remember that your details are best when they support the story, not bog it down. So let your character notice a line of ants crawling on the sidewalk. Don't feel you need to mention every crack in the sidewalk, unless there's some reason a character would notice it, or someone trips on it, or it needs to be repaired. +This is a good reason to follow one character's perspective for a while. It gives you the balance between noticing too much or noticing nothing at all. If every detail builds up the world someone inhabits by fitting in their subjective experience, then empathy towards your character can be a remarkably apt guide for what to include, and what not to bother with. +Note: Sex fantasies are, by their nature, more insular than regular stories. You want to create in the reader the sympathetic sense of arousal, not create a world so vivid he regrets not having time to smell the roses. +It has been noted, however, that women are far more likely to respond to environmental cues when it comes to being aroused. I have heard the claim that Dangerous Liaisons, or A Room with a View is far more arousing to many women than a story about cunnilingus would be. So if the center of arousal in your fantasy is a woman, what might be going overboard on the details from a male perspective may be just what is needed to bring her to a soul-shattering climax. +Again, you have to know what you're writing. Are you writing a sex fantasy from the perspective of a believable woman, or the kind of woman you want to believe exists? Either one is fine, but don't kid yourself. P.S. 99% of sex fantasies published in porn magazines feature the latter. +6\. Don't be afraid to learn from what others have done. Good writers borrow; great writers steal. +If you want to write a romance, read romantic fiction. How does the writer create the effect that makes you enjoy it? The same goes for mysteries, sci- fi/fantasy, cold war thrillers, and coming-of-age stories. Part of writing is taking the pleasure that others have given you over the years and appropriating it for yourself. +One advantage to a site like this, of course, is that because sex writing carries some of the same stigma as porn (even though the best practitioners are every bit as serious about their work as any other writer), it feels like there's less pressure. Free means there are no immediate mercenary motives, and certainly nobody is submitting stories here thinking they'll get a Pulitzer, so even if someone subjects your story to a hurtful, vitriolic attack, well, how important can their opinion be? +Thus one has the freedom to write any kind of story one likes, and the adding of one or several explicit sex scenes can feel like a buffer. It especially can encourage one to adopt a lighter, tongue-in-cheek style; it reinforces the MST3K mantra, ""It's just a show; so just relax."" And the last thing I want to do is inhibit anyone's sense of fun. +So my advice is, take as much as you can from whatever genre you're doing a sexy version of. Learn to be a gifted mimic. This is especially true of the kinds of stories you see in the Celebrities and (to a lesser extent) in the Humor and Satire section. If you want to do your own episode of Sabrina, or Buffy, or CSI Miami, then try to bring those shows to life. Incorporate their humor, the tics of their characters, even the plots, or your own versions of same. +There's a distinct structure to the large majority of plots in either written or broadcast fiction, and there are reasons behind that structure. Maybe nobody will be hiring you to write the next episode of House, but that doesn't mean your version of it can't incorporate everything you love about it, and sexy scenes besides. You learned to talk by imitating those around you. It's also a pretty good way to learn how to write. Your own voice will develop naturally, in time. +Note: And this especially goes for the erotic stories you find in old issues of Hustler, Penthouse, and even their lamer cousins like High Society or Genesis. Yes I mentioned this before. Yes, it's worth reiterating. If you were ever a teenager, and someone slipped you a copy of a 'skin rag,' and it felt like a whole world opened up, these were a crucial part of that feeling. It's part of our cultural heritage. +7\. Chapters are your friends. Use them. +Of all authors, I was a little surprised to read that Terry Pratchett, one of the most superb authors of satirical fantasy around, is disdainful of chapter divisions. I could see his point, which is that they break up the action artificially, telling the reader ""This is significant. These words in this particular sentence, they are all the more significant because the page ends here, even though there's lots of blank space left."" (I'm paraphrasing wildly.) +But even though he has a point (after all one can't dictate the response of one's readers, and attempting to do so often results in a rather didactic feel), there are moments when it's a far from unwelcome gesture for the author to say, ""At this point, maybe we can take a little break."" +Such famously difficult authors as Faulkner and Joyce still found it appropriate to use chapters, or at least sectioned their longer works in rather a formal fashion, and it hardly makes them less readable. (But they still are tough going for lots of readers. I find them worthwhile, but unless the reader is prepared to put forth a great deal of effort, they may not be rewarding.) +Even if the characters or situations in a given Literotica story are interesting enough to pull me into chapter after chapter, that doesn't mean I want to spend an hour at a time reading one. Any activity is better when you allow yourself a break, and sexy stories are no exception. +Want a rule of thumb? OK. Consider about once every chapter putting in one strongly detailed, explicit sex scene. That means if you're writing about a long weekend, maybe that scorching 69 scene deserves its own chapter, and maybe that scene with the anal sex in the hot tub is worthy of its own chapter, etc. +If something other than the sex is driving the story, than this still is about the right ratio. As your intrepid archeologists jet-set around the globe searching for the Holy Grail, it makes more sense to have one sex scene in Paris, and one in Morocco, than to have one in the hotel room, and one in the lobby, and one in the ride to the dig site, and one at the dig site, and one in the library, and then three more in the hotel room... +However, if there are multiple characters in your story, there will still be times when multiple sex scenes make the most narrative sense, and breaking them up into formal chapters will seem like an artificial division. That's OK. But it's all the more imperative in such a situation that you've created, lively, interesting characters so that readers actually want to see them shagging their brains out. Remember, sex should enhance your readers' interest in the characters, not be a substitute for believable, fleshed-out personalities. +Note: I have observed that it is quite common for sex fantasies to present one sex scene after another, and while this also runs the risk of exhausting the reader, I can understand the impetus. Sex fantasies and porn movies are often very similar, with the exception that a far greater number of written fantasies (the professionally written kind, at any rate) are, if fluff, at least polished fluff. Even porn films with budgets tend to put all the money into set design, or costume. +With the exception of some of Will Ryder's efforts (Specifically Not the Bradys) there is virtually no effort put into script or believable performances. Which does not hamper in any way their audience appeal, apparently. +However, this creates an expectation that an erotic movie is one with a plot of varying complexity, lots of hammy performances, and a string of sex scenes, usually at rigidly timed intervals. This also goes for the soft-core variety, ubiquitous on pay-cable channels. And it works fine, given the basic assumption: No one is expected to watch one of these movies all the way through. +You see the sex scene, it turns you on, or doesn't, and if it turns you on enough, you masturbate and call it a night. If it's a cable soft-core, well, maybe you'll check it out again, perhaps On Demand, to see how the silly plot turned out. If it's real porn, you stop it and come back to it. This is especially suited for DVDs, which let you go directly to any scene your sick little heart desires. +The written version, however, if it's doing its job, is almost certain to sap the reader's vitality before he or she comes to the end, provided it has five or more sex scenes, or even one that takes up a whole page. Is there a solution? I myself have written at least one such story (the aforementioned Wonka), so I know it's possible to sustain a narrative through multiple sex scenes, particularly if one is doing a parody or pastiche. Of course, the reader can always copy and paste, perusing it at their leisure later, but that gets unwieldy after a couple of pages. +Once again, there's no shame in using chapters to break up the monotony. If you're worried about sustaining the pace, relax. Variation in pacing is, in 99% of all cases, more effective than simply putting the pedal to the floor and never stopping. +8\. Try writing your first draft. +And by writing I actually mean putting a pen to a piece of notebook paper and physically writing it out. Now, after trying this once, you may decide it feels silly and unnatural and you never want to do it again. And that's fine. If you are a trained typist, regular writing may even seem painfully slow. +But there are some advantages to it that can't be beat, even if you have a laptop. There is almost nowhere you can't go with a notebook, nowhere you can't pull it out and start writing, and when you have thirty minutes with nothing to do, like waiting for a bus or for business to pick up at the bar or club you got there way too early for, well now you have something. +And what you write on paper is so obviously yours. Sure, you may have the worst handwriting in the world, but the only person who needs to be able to read it is you. And notebook pages fill up so quickly, especially if you're on a roll. Suddenly you're incredibly prolific, and instead of forcing yourself to finish a page, you've written five and you aren't sure you CAN stop. +But the main advantage, I've discovered, is that now you have to transcribe all that onto your computer, and all of a sudden, you'll discover you've cut the number of typos, shifting tenses and unintentional sentence fragments down dramatically. Making corrections just seems less onerous when you have to rewrite anyway. +9\. Don't let your tenses slip. Shift them consciously, or keep them rigidly. +It's hard sometimes to stick to one tense. After all, so much of the storytelling we grew up reading is in the past tense, it just seems natural to write that way. But then, as the story or scene plays itself out in your head, you can get caught up in the immediacy of it and start writing in the present tense. And it can be jarring to the reader. And it seems sloppy. +Here's the deal. Because our minds formulate reality out of our past experience, it IS natural to write narrative in the past tense. It makes it feel more solid and settled. This happened; you can't unhappen it. +The present tense, however, feels almost detached to some people. Things that happen in the present aren't fixed; they're still in flux. If we see something surprising, it often takes a couple of seconds to be sure we weren't just seeing things. Ever had a friend that half the time would take back what he said with a ""Just kidding?"" What a dick, huh? Forcing the reader to think in the present tense can feel like that sometimes. +But it has an immediacy to it that can't be denied. And if you're trying to arouse in the reader a similar experience to what the character is feeling, it can be a very powerful tool. Just always remember to pick up your tools when you're done with them. +Note: As the first-person is to the sex fantasy, so the past tense. If you do choose to experiment with present tense in this genre, be prepared for a more arch, formal tone than you'd normally expect with this genre. +10\. Poetry is about struggling for the right words. Prose is about choices. +There are so many elements of our lives that can't be summed up in words. Sex is one of the biggies. Feelings and emotions are more basic than language ever could be. And yet we can never know if another's feelings matches our own. Words can't solve that dilemma. +And yet a clinical, sexually explicit description of sex will never capture the way it feels any better than emotionally charged words like 'love,' 'desire,' 'lust' or 'vulnerability.' All words can do in the service of story, really, is draw us into a state where we try to feel an imaginary person's reality for a while. We may, along the way, explore any number of facets of humanity, but ultimately we never get completely out of our own heads. +With that said, what our prose needs is not certainty, but confidence. We can never know fully what effect our writing will have on the other side of the screen. But we can make decisions, and we can be conscious of our reasons for making them, and that, at least, can carry through our work. +So be of good cheer! You will be misunderstood, accused of espousing ideas you never heard of, and people will laugh at the serious parts and not get the funny ones. But you were there when inspiration hit. You were there when you wrote your fifth draft. You were there when you put the finishing touches on it and said, ""I'm ready for this to be read."" And I'll be keeping my eye out for you." +273,How I Increased My Libido,Sexual_Thoughts,How To,2013-07-18,2013-07-18,2022-01-04 08:29:42,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-i-increased-my-libido,Details of how I naturally increased my libido.,"['Boner', 'Erection', 'Libido', 'Men']",,"Through years of trial and error I've developed a sure fire way to raise my libido and keep it high. +The method I've developed is divided into three different parts, which are: physical, cognitive, and freedom. +The first part 'physical', is made up of five principles, which are: consistent workouts, eat and drink healthy, quality sleep, masturbate without ejaculation, and avoid medicine. +The second part 'cognitive', is made up of four principles, which are: read and write erotica, leave fantasies unfulfilled, look at pornography infrequently, and take care of your appearance. +The third part 'freedom', is made up of three principles, which are: avoid jealousy, explore sexy activities, and flirt with other women. +All of the principles mentioned above act together causing a synergetic effect to naturally propel my libido into the stratosphere! +Through years of trial and error I've found why these principles are so important, and I'll provide that insight to you now. +The physical issues concerning libido are essential, and fundamental. Without a physical body that performs and functions properly, libido will not and cannot occur. To this end it is very important for me to keep my body functioning at it's highest potential. +Regular and consistent workouts are the number one thing I can do for my body. I've found that the most efficient method for working out consistently is to workout every-other day at home immediately after waking, by performing five full circuits made up of various body weight strength training exercises that work my entire body, followed by 30 minutes of low impact cardiovascular exercise. +My circuit consists of single leg squats, followed by decline pushups, followed by chin-ups. I perform these exercises one after the other with no rest. I do this circuit of exercises five times. +I follow that with 30 minutes of low impact cardio kick boxing, which I do by cycling through a series of jabs, hooks, uppercuts, straight punches, elbow strikes to the front, elbow strikes to the rear, front kicks, roundhouse kicks, side kicks, knee strikes to the front, and rear kicks. +I eat and drink healthy by moderating my intake of caffeine, alcohol, sodium, saturated fat, highly processed carbohydrates, and sugary food. I make sure to get plenty of water, and nutrients. +I get eight hours of quality sleep everyday, using a CPAP machine because I suffer from sleep apnea. +You've heard the term 'use it or lose it'. Well that applies to to my ability to develop erections. If I were to go extended periods without purposely getting erections, I would lose the ability to do so over time. Therefore it's very important for me to masturbate everyday. However, masturbating doesn't mean ejaculating. The ancient Taoists have a saying which is ""an ounce of seed is an ounce of a man's soul."" What they mean by this is that retaining ejaculate will keep the sexual energy in you, as apposed to ejaculating which will leave you lethargic and less energetic sexually. Therefore, I masturbate everyday and try not to ejaculate. This keeps my erections functioning properly, while keeping my sexual energy high. I don't worry about the buildup of ejaculate because I know from researching it that it naturally gets reabsorbed in my body. +It's important for me to avoid all drugs, particularly prescription medication. While some medication is unavoidable, such as antibiotics, it is a fact that the more medication you take the more difficult it is to develop erections. +There are some medications which are particularly bad for erections such as high blood pressure medication. Therefore it is very important that I keep myself as healthy as possible naturally by following the workouts, nutrition, and sleep guidelines mentioned above, and avoid taking medications whenever possible. +The cognitive issues concerning libido are equally important as the physical issues are. Without a proper mindset libido will not and can not occur. To this end it is very important that I keep my mind as sexual as possible and take the proper steps to develop that highly sexual mind. +Writing erotica develops my ability to conjure up sexual thoughts, which are meaningful to me. It was difficult to write erotica when I first started out, but over time I developed a knack for coming up with erotic ideas.This ability to focus and conjure up erotic thoughts is so important for my libido, and writing erotica is the key to developing this ability. +It's also important for me to read erotica as well as write it. When I read erotica I interpret the story as I see fit, and I internalize it as well. In the process of interpreting and internalizing the erotica I create the perfect mental environment for my own sexual thoughts to take hold, furthering my ability to develop sexual thoughts. +I'm sure you've heard the saying 'you want what you can't have'. A lot of times the temptation to have something that is forbidden can be overwhelming. This desire in a sexual context is a powerful force which always raises my libido. For this reason it is very important for me to leave some of my fantasies unfulfilled. Unfulfilled fantasies are a catalyst that develops sexual thoughts which is essential to my libido. +It is very important that I do not look at visual pornography often. While very infrequent viewing of pornography can stimulate my sexual mind, repeated exposures will take away my sexual excitement, and damage my ability to conjure up sexual thoughts which are needed for libido. +The more I look at pornography the more use to it I become. The excitement that I had when I first saw pornography diminishes over time causing me to need more and increasingly shocking images to obtain the same excitement I had when I first looked at more innocuous images. +Furthermore, repeated viewing of pornography causes me to become reliant on the visual stimulus as my sole source of sexuality, and ignores my mind's ability to conjure up it's own sexual thoughts. As previously mentioned in this essay, if I don't use something I will lose it, and this applies to my mind's ability to conjure up sexual thoughts. By repeatedly looking at pornography I leave my mind to waste away to the point that I cannot conjure up any sexual thought independently, and I become a slave to obtaining sexual excitement from looking at pictures which aren't nearly as exciting to me as they once were. +It is important that I take care of my appearance. I practice good hygiene, get my hair styled, and I wear fashionable clothing. Feeling good about myself, and having a feeling of self-worth gives me confidence which is an important prerequisite for libido. +Issues regarding freedom are equally as important to libido as physical and cognitive issues are. Without sufficient freedom, libido will not and can not occur. To this end it is very important for me to pursue sexual freedom by incorporating the following principles. +I have to avoid jealousy at all costs. There is nothing that extinguishes libido quicker in a relationship than jealousy. If a spouse doesn't feel free to express themselves sexually, the libido of both people in the relationship will shut down and become dormant. +Drastic problems such as jealousy require drastic solutions, and the following solution is just such a thing. My spouse and I would never entertain the idea of a swinger lifestyle, however we don't have to partake in the lifestyle to get the benefits from it. Secretly accepting my spouse and I as swingers without telling my significant other cures my jealous feelings of her instantly. Without my partner knowing that I now consider our relationship a swinger relationship she will not engage in overt extramarital affairs, and will continue to live her life as she always has. There is no reason for me to engage in affairs either, however my 'swinging' activities consists of tamer things which I explain below. +The healthy social behavior that my spouse has always engaged in, and which caused so much jealous feelings in the past, is now a non-issue for me. Secretly accepting my spouse and I as swingers not only releases my spouse from the prison of my jealous thoughts, it also gives me the freedom to relax. In so doing our libido has the environment it needs to thrive, and we both reap the benefits together. +Secretly accepting my spouse and I as swingers is the most drastic and newest addition to my program. Admittedly it took a leap of faith to try it in my life, but the instant increase in libido and the mental peace it brought made it well worth it. +Not only is it healthy for my spouse to have space, and freedom, it's healthy for me too! It's important for me to get out there and enjoy life! I experience all that life has to offer to excite me and increase my libido. I take drop in classes at yoga studios, I take one on one sessions with female personal trainers, I get a massages, and I even get brazilian waxes. The list of sexy activities I can partake in are endless. The excitement from exploring and finding new sexy activities is one of the greatest joys in my life. +The final principle of mine is a simple but very important one; flirt with other women. I'm in a committed relationship, but I'm not dead. Flirting with other women doesn't mean I'm going to have sex with them, but it does mean my confidence and self esteem and subsequently libido will increase. +A prominent psychologist once gave a hopelessly depressed man homework to flirt with at least ten women every single day. Imagine the adrenaline rush that man must have had from coming out of his shell and expressing his sexuality with others. As he became more assured of himself I'm sure his quality of flirting, and subsequent confidence increased. This no doubtably led to an increase in his libido. +To make sure that I'm following all the principles in my program consistently I follow a very important 'to do list' that I made for myself: +Workout every-other day at home immediately after waking, by performing five full circuits made up of various body weight strength training exercises that work the entire body, followed by 30 minutes of low impact cardiovascular exercise. +Eat and drink healthy by moderating my intake of caffeine, alcohol, sodium, saturated fat, highly processed carbohydrates, and sugary food. Get plenty of water, and nutrients. +Get eight hours of quality sleep everyday, using a CPAP machine. +Masturbate daily trying not to ejaculate. +Avoid taking medication whenever possible. +Read and write erotica daily. +Avoid fulfilling some of my fantasies. +Look at pornography very infrequently. +Practice proper hygiene, get my hair styled, and wear fashionable clothing. +Secretly accept my spouse and I as swingers. +Go out and do sexy activities. +Flirt with other women everyday. +I live, eat, and breathe these principles every minute of every day. They are my creed, and the blueprint for my life. I've memorized them and use them as my personal mantra. +Discovering the significance of the principles are one of the crowning achievements of my life, and I'm honored to have the opportunity to share them with you." +274,How I Overcome the Block,NaivelyWandering,How To,2011-05-31,2011-05-31,2022-01-04 08:29:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-i-overcome-the-block,Getting rid of that annoyingly persistent brick wall.,"['Brick Wall', 'Inspiration', 'Muse', ""Writer'S Block"", 'Writing']",4.31,"_Author's note:_ +Undoubtedly, this issue's been addressed with innumerable 'how to' guides across the web. If what I've offered below doesn't work for you, find your favourite search engine and 'give it a burl'. + **How To...** +Overcome writer's block. My way. Not necessarily your way, but shooting or beating your monitor won't help. Well, it might give you momentary satisfaction, but that will stop when your fist starts to hurt. +~~~~~~ +You feel it coming on; you know just as soon as this paragraph's done, you're screwed. There's a wall right in front of you. It's made of angry, red clay bricks, held strong with depressing, grey grout. You scrape your hands over the wall's rough surface, and wordlessly beg it to crumble. But it stands strong, and you huff. How long this time? A day? Week? Month, or two? A few years? +Staring at it helplessly, hoping for sympathy on the wall's part, you know you've got no chance; it's a wall, it doesn't care that you really, _really_ want this story written, done with, polished and published, another notch on the wall. +~~~~~~ +When I see the wall getting larger the closer I trudge toward it, this is what I do: +1\. Put the story away. Close the window it's opened in, slide the paper into a manilla folder; just get it out of your sight. _Right now._ You're not putting it away forever, not even the whole day, fingers crossed. +2\. People-watch. You don't have to leave home to do this, and you won't get accusative glares. If you've got a TV, radio, extroverted room-mates, pick one. I prefer movies. Tune in to conversations. Talk-back radio is particularly good for this. Follow them, as though reading a script. Listen to the words they choose, spoken clearly, stumbled over, mumbled or shouted. In your mind's eye, throw your character into the conversation. How would they speak? What would their opinion be? How would they behave? +3\. Turn said 'talk-box' implement off. Now it's time for quiet. Let your mind run over the conversations you've just listened to, and give a voice to those characters waiting to be heard. You might be thinking 'But NW, my character's a fifteenth century barbarian – he doesn't know the first thing about Star Wars/ Lady Gaga/ Babe Ruth!'. Not to fret. Tell him all about it, especially Princess Leia's slave outfit; he'll cream his pants. The point is to get closer to what your character is like – rather than the story itself. Once you can get in on their psyche, you'll have better command of them, and the floodgate to story progression may open to you. +4\. Turn on your best writing music. Now picture a completed scene that you're happy with, and play out that scene while listening to your music. Of course, choose music that can relate to this storyline. For example, if you're imagining a party scene, try pop or hip-hop. If you're imagining a quiet, romantic dinner, find a crooner to listen to. Got the point? Play this music until the scene in your mind is completed, not when the music stops. Put the play-list on repeat, if you have to, but try to avoid interruptions. +5\. You might, at this point, feel ready to return to your story. Keep playing the music. Your brain is now associating the music to the story or character, and you'll find the keys on your keyboard have lost their invisible barrier. +6\. If you've reached this far haven't gotten any closer to smashing that wall down (or walking around it, you rotten pacifist, you), then I suggest, drum roll please: Play pretend! It may sound silly, but if I'm stalwartly determined to get something done and refuse to put it away, I'll play pretend and act out the scene in my living room. You'll need props. Maybe a lot, maybe only a few. A plastic sword, a bike helmet, a cowboy hat, to name a few. I have a chest full of old Halloween costumes and props which I regularly use to play with, and even if I only end up realising that the logistics of a situation that I've written don't work and need a re-write, that iota of indulgence into the world of imagination can turn into hours of writing. +7\. Okay, so points 1 to 6 are useless to you. What are you writing? For general populace's sake, let's say you're writing erotica. Okay, so watch some porn. _No really, watch some porn._ Specifically in the category you're writing, if you can. Watch closely and comment out loud on what draws your attention. Take away the heavily made up chick and the over-buff dude, and replace them with your characters. Freeze-frame if you need to, but take a while to actually see them in the position you're going to be putting them in. What do they see? What do they feel? What do they smell? What do they hear? Use senses, and just scribble while looking at this picture about what makes the scene memorable, what touches you. +8\. Find a spare set of critical eyes. Proof-readers are your best friends, even if you sometimes feel as though they're your worst enemies! Getting fresh eyes on an unfinished piece might bring different ideas to throw into the pot. You do have to be careful here, though. If you have a proof-reader who does what they do for the sheer enjoyment of it, that doesn't mean they won't expect to be credited for collaboration. Some people don't care; and I'm only speaking for myself here. I think a good volunteer proof-reader/ editor is only to be credited for that. If they want to give you ideas on where to take your story, that's up to them to provide if they wish to. If you _ask_ for their ideas on plot progression, character development, etc., then offer to credit them for their collaborative efforts on your work. I'll take a guess and say 9 out of 10 won't care, either way, but will appreciate the offer, nonetheless. Remember, being an editor is a _free_ service; you don't have to pay them in coin, but you can at least pay them in spoken gratitude. +If I get to this point (and I often do), and the muse still stubbornly refuses to descend, I give up for the day. In the past, I've forced myself to finish chapters and had my editor call me on exactly the parts I was having trouble finishing. Lesson learnt, these days I refer to point 1. The important thing to remember is that you're writing because you _enjoy_ it. The end result of achievement is worthwhile, but if returning to the same story every day only feels like work, then you need to look at changing your perspective or venturing down alleys you wouldn't have thought of before now. + **Preventative Measures** +My routine for writing good chunks of fiction without the muse taking abrupt flight is proven for me, but quite possibly the opposite of what yours is for you. +First of all, you need to _want_ to write. If you're not feeling it at all, don't bother. If you want to, but lack the ability to 'get into' your story, try the above points, again. If you already have the drive and desire to put fingertips to keyboard, pen to paper, then give my method a go, and see if it works for you. +Things you will need: +1\. CD player or mp3 player. I use Windows Media Player on my PC, you can also try online streaming, but that's out of my domain. Whatever you use, make sure it's got a looping function. +2\. Instrumental music with little to no lyrics. I usually listen to scores from 'epic' movies, such as Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, Inception, Sunshine, X-Men, Platoon, to name more than a few. It doesn't matter what you choose to play, as long as you don't find yourself singing along and getting distracted. +3\. If it's night, which it probably usually will be, change the visual settings on your word processor, so that you're working on what looks to be light grey paper, rather than white. Taking away the brightness of the page will help relax your brain. +4\. Coffee is on hand, kettle boiled, ready for more. Getting up to grab a cuppa every now and then is vital, but don't overdo coffee, especially before bed. Stretch your limbs, even if it's a yawn/ stretch in your chair. Go and get a drink, get some food into your belly. Interaction is just as important as writing, regardless whether it's interacting with your caffeine hit via mug, with the kitchen window looking at the view or with the sun-soaking cat, giving it a rub. Whatever your interaction, you need to keep moving, rather than sitting stagnate for 6-8 hours straight. +An important note to add here, if my method works for you, is this: If I listen to the same musician, or same album two or three times, eventually the effect begins to wear away. It might happen to you, or it might not. But should it, don't panic! Just find another album by the same musician, or composer, or in the same category as you've already got. Music evolves, and we as writers can use it to the best of advantages. Just recently I learned that my favourite trance DJs are close to finishing a new album, and though what I'm listening to now still has the desired effect, I'm super excited to hear what the future has in store! +Well, literature extraordinaires, I bid you good luck, and wish you well, beating that brick wall to it's well deserved death. Just don't be so naïve as to think it'll give up that easily. Like all good horror movie series, the baddie always comes back for more when you least expect it!" +275,How I See It,Luke_n_Lacy,How To,2021-09-24,2021-09-30,2022-01-04 08:29:44,5,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-i-see-it,1.

I've got two kids, although they're teenagers now, at the time they were just kids. +I'd been writing an erotic story for a while when I wrote the email asking him if he'd give it a read and some feedback on it. It was my story, my characters, my fantasies. I'd been writing it for years. My husband and I have a good marriage and we've raised our boys right but this writing was my outlet. It gave me a place to go in my mind when the same-old-same-old got to be same-old. Anyone who's ever been married or in a long-term relationship understands the lulls and swings of it. Our sex was good, we'd developed our tricks and ways of meeting the other's needs but I wrote my stories and when rare moments of privacy occurred I would secret away on my iPad and indulge myself. +My husband didn't know I wrote this kind of stuff, only a couple of my girlfriends knew. I only ever shared it with one or two of my closest friends. I never had a problem sharing with my girls, but, at the same time I knew who I could trust and they know who they are. +When I emailed Otto and asked him if he'd read it, I suspected he'd be into it, but I was terrified nonetheless. I considered him a close friend and I didn't want that part to go away, but at the same time, I wanted him to see this other side of me. I wanted to show him. These were my personal and intimate fantasies and I was about to share them with a man I'd secretly imagined touching me in ways only my mind would ever make happen. I never imagined any of it would be a reality. It was all in my mind. Outing myself to him would change everything, but I had no idea how it would look or feel. +The first email I sent was just to ask him, ""Hey, I've been writing a story for a while now and I know you write too, so I was wondering if you might give it a read. I totally understand if you're too busy."" +He replied pretty quickly. I know nowadays people/friends/family get an email or text and can take days or weeks to reply, but we were pretty good friends. He was single and I think he was attracted to me in some way, although he never ever acted upon it. It was because he always replied within 24 hours, and always with something witty or interesting, I felt from the beginning he liked me. Plus, he told me his theory on friendships between the sexes. +A man and woman cannot be friends if they're attracted to one another. +I thought he was being a misogynist. But he meant that men and women, who are attracted to one another can be friends, but the friendship stems from their attraction. That actually may be a misogynist viewpoint now that I think about it, but he never struck me as such, I would never have been friends with him if I'd suspected otherwise. He said if a man and woman remained friends for a long time and nothing ever transpired sexually between them it was because one or the other wasn't attracted to them. The friendship would be a passive one, without intimacy, without compassion or care. +It was because he'd shared this with me and behaved as if he did care, and he was there for me and I was there for him that I knew he must have been attracted to me. If I hadn't understood this innately, I would not have sent him the email. +And true to that belief, he replied within 24 hours that he'd be happy to read it over and even offered notes if I so wished. +The moment came. I attached the story as a Shared Doc and wrote that he could make comments in it if he had the time. I was literally trembling when I hit send. +Directly after sending it I read the email 20 times, re-read the story a dozen times, each time measuring it for his reactions. In my mind, I'd just made the first move. I had held his hand. We were having our first kiss. I was thrilled and touched myself that night despite the anxiety, or maybe because of it. +The characters were Luke and Lacy. I know...so cliche, but I never could get names right in my stories. Luke was like him outwardly. Rugged, strong-willed, sensitive, and compassionate. Lacy was like me...sort of. She was my alter- ego. She and I shared traits like our love of a good showerhead and our desire to be taken by a strong man. We both know what we want and like. We both won't stand for any BS, but we are both forgiving and loving. We want our men to want us, we want them to respect us, and we build our relationships on trust and reciprocity. +But Lacy was an aggressive woman too. I don't know if I secretly, unbeknownst to even myself, am an aggressive woman, but I wanted Lacy to be more dominant. I wanted her to experiment for me. +How it started +I met Otto at the school where I'd been working for 3 years. I taught English and so did he and on the first day of school while teachers all stood in their hallway during break he walked down and introduced himself. He was older and this was his first teaching job. He was really nervous and every question he had was about the students and the school. He was very nervous. +That day we had lunch together in the small break-room in our hallway. Our school was remodeling at the time and subject teachers were out in pods separate from the main buildings. English teachers all shared one pod and we had our own little room with a fridge and stove/microwave and table and chairs. +I walked in and saw him sitting eating his lunch and joined him. We hit it off directly. He was funny and kind of rough around the edges. I'd come to learn he was quite a polarizing person, people at the school either really liked him or they didn't like him at all. I enjoyed talking with him about pedagogy and classroom management. Even though he was older, I had more experience than him in the classroom, but talking with him about the students and lesson design reminded me of when I'd first started teaching. It was refreshing. We arranged pretty quickly after that first lunch together to meet on a weekly basis and grade papers, talk strategy, and discuss philosophy. +We'd meet every Sunday at a coffee shop near my house. Many times though, instead of talking about school, we just talked. He was single, and it seemed to me, a confirmed bachelor. He'd had some long-term relationships, but as he put it, he could never find anyone to marry him. He said it was a great wish of his to have kids of his own. +He would go on an occasional date now and again but nothing ever came of them. I even tried hooking him up with my friends. I enjoyed being his sounding board. It felt like I was talking with one of my girlfriends if I'm honest. +I had my girlfriends too. I had my boys and my husband of course. Most of my time, I devoted to them so whatever time I had with the girls was precious. I made sure to balance it all, and most of the time my husband was pretty good about taking the boys when I needed time. He knew I was meeting with Otto every week, but I assured him he was not attracted to me. I honestly didn't think he was. I might have told my husband Otto was gay just so he wouldn't freak out, but I never introduced the two of them. That was a bad move on my part in hindsight. If I'd not told my husband he was gay, I would have, but he would have known Otto was straight as soon as they met, which is why I never introduced them. +Otto and I started hanging out more as our friendship grew. We'd go shopping or to school functions together. I found out he was a writer and read some of his stories. They were good stories, some tragic aspects to them but with humor and playful sexual undertones. I liked his stories but they were unpolished and wandered off into nothingness often. +Shopping was fun with him. I'd never met a man who enjoyed shopping. He smoked weed so I think that had a lot to do with it. He was a great shopping buddy. Like I said, a lot like one of my girlfriends. I think he saw himself that way too. He just enjoyed hanging out, talking, and laughing. We would get lunches occasionally too. We would go to school plays and musicals. We'd dress up and go for a drink after and talk about the performances. We lived in a small town in a culturally starved part of the country so this was about as intellectual as we could get without actually making a real date. +One week, at our Sunday morning meeting, he was hungover pretty bad and we were just talking. He was telling me about a date he had with this Japanese woman with two teenage kids. He was very forthcoming and it was turning me on. I liked him as a friend. I definitely thought he was handsome, but something about the retelling of his night's debauchery got to me. I led him down the path and assured him that I was enjoying his account and he revealed more. I felt as if I was ""leading"" him. And he followed. That day he was wearing an old pair of sweat-style shorts and a loose-fitting t-shirt with flip-flops. He got up to use the bathroom and I swear I caught a glimpse of satin pink material that had slipped up above the waistband of his shorts. +""Was he wearing panties?!?"" I thought to myself, impossible. This overt man, this rough-around-the-edges man was definitely wearing panties. +When he came back from the bathroom I started asking him questions about his writing. Like, had he ever written stories for his girlfriends? Had he written erotic stories? I remember the look on his face, deciding how to respond, or even if he should, but he told me he had and if he believed what they'd said about the stories, they were quite good. +That night, after putting the boys to bed and while my husband was watching Sunday night football, I got on my iPad and searched Literotica. I'm a long- time member, although I've never published anything, and my profile is absent of any personal information, I love reading the stories. I don't follow any authors because it's easy enough to find something that tickles my fancy so I never saw the need. +I searched for Otto. Back then the search tools on the site weren't that great or very well-organized, but it didn't take me long to find him. He'd used his email handle for his username. I thought it was quite bold of him. I have part of my first name in my username, but my first name is quite common, and I altered the spelling of it slightly, added a two-digit number that was my birth year, but it would be virtually impossible for someone to find me based on my username. The combination of letters and numbers, regardless of their meaning, would be a million to one that someone would figure it. But his email handle was quite unique and anyone who knew his email would recognize his Literotica username as belonging to one and the same person. +I read his stories that night. I was completely astounded! At once I was floored and aroused. He wrote with such realism and certainty, and I could identify his ""normal"" writing voice and style inherent inside these erotic fantasies and knew immediately it was Otto. +I read each story. I noticed he wrote sporadically. Sometimes three or four stories in a six-month stretch, sometimes nothing for a year or two. He hadn't written anything in over a year. The last story he wrote was about Maria, an ex-girlfriend he'd told me about. He even used her name. I did notice he never used his own name so there's virtually no way anyone who knows Maria would know the Maria in this particular story was her. +The story was so shocking. So shocking and real. Otto was a secret submissive crossdresser and something about it was extremely arousing. Also, realizing that earlier that day, he was in fact wearing women's panties added to my shock. It has explained so much about our relationship thus far. He enjoyed being my ""girl pal."" +I carried this secret knowledge with me throughout our friendship. I kept a watch for any further glimpses of panties or undergarments but never saw any after that one morning. Our friendship remained like this for the entirety of his stay at our school. +A change +Otto was not fit for this town or this state. I said he was polarizing, and much of it was his own fault, he was relentless and unforgiving of the locals' states of mind, the ""culture"" if you want to call it that, but therein was the problem. I knew very early on that his goal was to teach internationally. I was envious in a way because he was totally un-obligated to anyone and after his third year he started signing up for job fairs for international teaching positions. +We went over his prospects together, our Sunday meetings became preparatory meetings for the job fairs. He had targeted European cities, Berlin, Amsterdam, Prague, Copenhagen, and I found myself daydreaming about what that would be like. I was happy with my life, but it was an irresistible temptation to imagine myself alone, starting a new life in some European country. Learning a new language, making myself whatever and whoever I want to be, and meeting people who had no idea who I was or where I came from. +That last year before he finally secured a job was wonderful and bitter-sweet. I knew he was leaving and I would miss my friend. At the same time, he met a woman and it became almost a weekly date. He would tell me all about their sex life. She was 56! I was shocked that he was dating her, and how much he seemed to like her. He was only 40 at the time and I couldn't believe he was dating a woman almost 60. +He genuinely liked her, but once he told me that the biggest reason he wanted her was because of her age. ""I want to know what it's like to be with an older woman so I know what I'm in for when I get that old."" That's what he said. It was funny, but I also knew from reading his stories he had a thing for older women because they were more dominant, they knew how to handle a man. Even though he was ""dating"" her, he still made our Sunday meetings and we still went shopping and we still had lunches together. +In February of his last year at the school, he went to a job fair in Iowa and then in San Francisco. The Sunday before he left for Iowa I gave him a gift box with a calendar for keeping track of his interviews. I did my research on how the fairs worked and knew he'd need to keep track of his appointments and contacts and I could see he recognized and appreciated the fitting gift. I also put some chocolates and a little note telling him how much I'd miss him and asked him to make sure to keep our friendship going wherever he landed. I even took him to the airport and wished him luck. I was sad but also happy for him. +He called me to tell me that he'd gotten a job in Berlin at a bi-lingual high school. I was thrilled that he thought to call me. I was sad because I was afraid I was losing a friend. I knew how he was, and in the back of my mind, I feared he'd get to Europe and forget, not just me, but everyone he'd left behind. +As the school year drew to a close, our school was performing Oklahoma as the drama club's grand finale, and Otto and I made our first ""date."" We agreed to dress up, go for a drink and then the show, and finish off the night at our town's most popular Irish pub. +I told my husband I was going with a group of teachers and he was going out with his friends so we had a sitter for the boys. I wore a black dress and open-toed heels. I knew from his stories that he was into women's feet. I got a mani-pedi. I looked good. We met at a roof-top bar/restaurant, one of the town's nicest restaurants. We arrived at the same time and took the elevator up to the roof. Otto stared at my toes the whole ride up. He was wearing a black sport coat and slacks with a blue t-shirt and leather shoes. He looked pretty hot. We made a good-looking couple. I felt like I was on a date. I felt butterflies in my stomach. He kept telling me how good I looked, and then I'd catch him looking at my toes. +We had a couple of cocktails and then walked over to the school's auditorium. The show was great and it felt so strange to show up with Otto alone as if we were on a date. Our colleagues were looking at us with suspicion in their eyes. Otto was oblivious, but I felt like I'd been caught cheating. I felt the whole of our little town judging me. +After the show, I still felt that strange judgment and we walked to the Irish pub. On the walk over I checked my phone and my husband was blowing me up. I called him and as we walked through the doors of the pub Otto was leaning into my ear asking me what I wanted to drink. He wasn't being obnoxious, the place was loud and he was just making sure I could hear him. My husband wanted to know who I was with and he thought I was with girlfriends, and what the hell am I doing with a man? +Otto was oblivious again. He had no idea. He just looked at me like a stunned ape, I was furious with him. What I realized later, and what actually happened is that my anxiety of being judged by my colleagues had carried itself over to the pub, and coupled with my husband's interrogation of my whereabouts and who-with-abouts had my head spinning. I lost all self-control and confidence and told Otto, ""I'm sorry, but I have to go."" +My husband, in addition to interrogating me, had told me he was on his way to the pub and wanted to meet this guy I'd been hanging out with for the past four years. I couldn't let that happen and flight or fight took hold and I fled. +That was the last time we hung out. Summer came, and on July 2nd, Otto was on a plane and heading to Berlin. +Long-distance relationships +Summer was busy, the boys were playing ball and taking martial arts, my husband was back to not worrying about where I was and who I was with, and I was busy getting ready to start my master's program to get my admin certifications. It was good. I was actually relieved. Otto was totally oblivious to so much that mattered to me and my community. He was a single man with no kids from a completely different part of the country--he was like a bull in a china shop. I needed the summer to decompress and shift my paradigm. I took a yoga class that summer, spent time at the beach alone when time afforded me, and ramped up my writing on the Luke and Lacy story. I was taking care of me. +Otto wrote me in early fall just to say hi. It was good to hear from him and I wrote him back just filling him in on my life. He was working long hours getting acclimated to the new school, city, and country. +I focused on work and my master's program and an occasional girls-night-out. Weekend nights, after the boys were in bed I'd write my story. My husband was working nights now so I could relax, have a glass of wine, light some candles, and write. I liked to wear a black chemise, a pair of lace boy-cut panties and my open-toed slippers while I wrote. It got me in the mood. Sometimes I wouldn't write, I'd just close my eyes and imagine Luke or Lacy, or both. On good nights, I would cover myself with my down comforter, slide my magic wand from the side-table drawer and ride him to orgasm. I really love my wand. +Sometimes I'd read stories on Literotica. In late fall, I noticed Otto had posted a new story. It was about ""her."" I knew from our talks that ""her"" was Maria, his, ""one that got away."" +The core of the story is Maria edging him as he is dressed in women's lingerie. She edges him and slowly milks his ""clit"", as he called it, releasing his sperm in short and deliberate spurts into the palm of her hand and feeding it to him. And then repeating this act until finally letting him ejaculate onto his own face. The story seemed so real. +I read the story several times playing with myself. I kept imagining Otto dressed in panties, chemise, stockings and garter. I could see his face painted. I could see him serving the Maria, who soon became faceless, who soon became me. I put myself in her position in total control of Otto's sex. +I left a comment. As I said before, my username includes part of my first name and my birth year. If Otto saw the user comment and thought of me, he'd realize it was me, his friend from the states. I was tingling. I just wrote, ""thanks for the great read"". I was nerve-racked. I was trembling. I clicked ""submit"" and watched the comment post itself at the bottom of his story. +I didn't know if he would even see the comment, let alone put two and two together, and I had no idea how often he went to Literotica. If he saw the user comment and saw that part of my name was in the user name he'd know it was me, I was sure of that. I wasn't sure he'd act on it. I wasn't sure when he'd see it. The anticipation was killing me. I wanted him to know it was me. I wanted him to send me an email saying he knew. I wanted him to discover me. +But time went on. After a couple days I kind of just forgot about it. I was finishing the semester projects for my masters program and getting ready for Christmas break. +During Christmas break I had a girl's night out with a few of my girls and showed them Otto's story and my comment. They were fascinated and I could tell, a little jealous. It was exciting. The next day my husband took the boys to his parents' house for two days and I had the house to myself. That's the night I decided to send the email. +Hey O, +I hope you're having a good Christmas break and you're enjoying your time off. Hey, I've been writing a story for a while now and I trust you because you write too and have shared your writing with me. I was wondering if you might give it a read. I totally understand if you're too busy. +A@## +Less than a day later. +Hey A@##, +Of course, send it along. I'm happy to read it and give you some notes. +O +All I wrote +O, +Story attached. Feel free to make comments. +A@## +[Send] +As I said, I read and re-read the story a dozen times. Each time I read it, I imagined Otto's reactions. I knew he'd like it. I knew he'd respond. I knew it, yet I trembled with excitement and fear. I mean, anything could happen, despite my certainty, anything could happen. My worst fear would be no response at all. Then I imagined repulsion. I imagined never talking to me again. But I knew, deep down I knew I had him. +He wrote back a day later. +A@##, +""I masturbated 3 times last night reading your story. I love love love it!"" +O +Thank god! My first thoughts were, ""what parts made him ejaculate?"" I wanted to know what turned him on. I had so many questions. Did he know it was me who'd left the comment on his story? Did he see me as he was touching himself? What does he expect? Does he think I'm hot? What does he think of me? Is he going to tell anyone? What about our colleagues? Will he tell anyone from the school? Does he even keep in contact with anyone from our school? Was he wearing panties when he read my story? Can I get him to tell me who he really is? How can I get him to tell me? + +" +276,How I Suck Cock,hema_willams,How To,2004-09-10,2004-09-10,2022-01-04 08:29:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-i-suck-cock,Her secret technique.,"['Balls Cock', 'Balls Still', 'Base Cock', 'Circular Motion', 'End Cock', 'Place Lips', 'Still Bound', 'Suck Hard', 'Taste Precum', 'Tip Cock']",4.42,"You lean back in the armchair and I push my way between your knees. I place my lips on the end of your cock and kiss it. On my knees before you I lift your cock to reveal your balls. (Hopefully thry are shaved, but that's another thing.) I lick your sack and balls within, then begin to lick all the way up to the very tip of your cock. Many times in quick succession, like licking an ice cream cone. Then I take you inside my mouth and barely close my lips around your shaft. With my head I begin a circular motion. Your cock will slide to different places in my mouth as I continue the circle motion. I make circles clockwise and counterclockwise,your cock slipping and sliding this way and that. I spend some time doing this, marvelling as your cock grows more and more rigid. Your balls are being drawn up tightly to the base of your cock. I don't want you to cum yet, so as your begin to try to force your cock deeper down my throat I cease movement. My mouth is still encasing the couple of inches near the tip. My breath is hot as I breath out, cooling as I breath in. +As I wait the several seconds this takes I feel between my own naked legs. I find the reason for the yearning feeling in my crotch. My clit is pert and erect too. It's begging for me to touch, to caress it. It's tempting for me to play with myself. It's another temptation also to return to your rod and make you cum. I can taste your precum and a part of me says to go ahead and do it. Make you come right now. I know you'll enjoy it and I know I'll enjoy it. Especially the clean up as I lick away your cum from your shaft. But no, this is a special time. I'll do more. +I slide my tongue lovingly over the head of your cock until it is well moistened. Then I slide your hot rod through my wet closed lips. With my hands on your shaft I stroke you. I slowly twist my head from side to side making sure my moist lips stay in contact with your coronal ridge. While doing this I continue to stroke the length of your shaft. My tongue flicks the underside of your cock. I taste more precum as it oozes from the slitted end. Your cock is very hard and erect. Your ballas are sucked way high high. And you are moaning, groaning, and trying to push your way deeper into my mouth. I know you want me to envelope your cock with my mouth. I remove your cock from my mouth and sit back on my heels for a moment. +I keep my hand sliding slowly up and down the magnificent length of your love spear as I watch the way you thrust your hips up, loking for more. I enjoy seeing you this way. So horny. Wanting me so bad. With one hand for you I use the other to take a few strokes up and down my pussy lips. I am wet and ready to be fucked. I yearn to feel your hardon inside me. But I must not succumb to such urges. Not yet! +I rock forward and my lips meet and close over your cock head. I slide down until I feel you contact the back of my throat. My gag reflex wants to kick in, but I swallow and control it. With my tongue pressing firmly on the underside of your red hot poker I slowly slide my lips up until only the tip of your cock is within my mouth. Once again I engulf you deep into my throat. And once again slowly withdraw to the tip. My tongue does several swirls, lingering on the underside of the ridge. I suck hard and am rewarded with a quantity of thin salty precum. +Keeping my lips closed around your pole I bob my head up and down rapidly a half dozen times. You moan out load again. I feel for your balls and with some difficulty prise them away from their nestled hiding spot. Grabbing a wide elastic from the table I stretch it over your hard cock down to the base. Then I carefully slip each of your jewels through the elastic. (a rubber band like those used to hold fresh broccoli stems in the grocer's produce department) I ease it down into place close to your loins. Your balls and cock are held captive, sticking out in front of you. Oh it's so fucking sexy for me. My finger tips trace lightly over the tightly stretched skin encasing your balls. +Turning my head sideways I place my lips on the side of your erection and slide sideways back and forth. My tongue licks at the veined length. Once again I engulf you deeply and suck hard as I pull back to the tip. I repeat the plunge and suck motion several times, then stop as you begin a deep moan. I think you're getting ready to cum. I quickly check my cunt with my fingers. I've been seeping wetness out between my pussy lips. Pressing my palm over my snatch I spread my wetness and press down on my clit. Oh what a feeling! +You are begging for me to finish you off. I reapply my mouth to the enjoyable task. Bobbing my head several times in rapid succession, then going down on you as hard as I can causes your cock to being pulsating. A thick rich shot of creamy cum splashes into my throat. Pulse after pulse, wave after wave of warm cum fills my mouth. I cannot suppress a smile and cum dribbles from the corners of my mouth. It runs down the length in trails like candle wax. Swallowing your load I return to licking away all traces of cum. +Lifting my head from your crotch at long last I smile broadly. You lay there, eyes closed, a picture of naked contentment. I rise from my kneeling position and stretch the kinks out of my long legs, my back and my arms. You open your eyes and sweep from head to toe drinking in my naked form. Drawing my shoulders back I accentuate my breasts. I place my right foot on the chair's arm and lean forward as I finger my clit. I slip a finger inside, swirl it. Pulling it out I offer it to you to savor. You suck it clean with a smile. +let's have some fun!... I have some variations for a continuation... +[A] +Taking your hand I tug and help you to rise from the chair. You attempt to embrace me but I sidestep and slip from your grasp, then slouch into the warm vacated cushions. You stand there not sure what I'm up to. Your cock and balls are still bound with the elastic, and are pointing at me. I love the sight! I hook a leg over each of the padded arms of the chair. I finger fuck myself again and once more hold it out to you. As you bend to it I lick it and then suck it myself. I point to my pussy with my free hand and murmur, ""It's your turn now! Eat me!"" +[B] +You have slid down in the chair as to be almost prone. I grab each ankle and pull you down to the floor. Astride your prone form I release your balls and cock from the elastic and guide your wet cock to my wet cunt and sit on you. The feel of you inside me is wonderful. +[C] +I clamber up onto the chair, kneeling on the broad padded arms. I wiggle close up in front of you and press my pussy into your face. You busy your tongue licking my juices as your hands cradle and play with my ass. +[D] +I drop back to my knees and dive on your cock. I use the circular motion, rotating one way then the other. I play with your balls, still bound by the elastic to the base of your cock. I force a hand under your ass and finger stroke your anus. +*************** +I've not met a guy who did not LOVE to have me suck his cock. They all find it a thoroughly enjoyable experience! I enjoy it too! Partly it's the power I have over the guy while I'm sending him into ecstasy. And in part I truly do enjoy the feel of his cock in my mouth. It's sexy!

If you do not have a penis, be forewarned that this story is not for you. This story is about men and for men. Men only. Unless you are a Tomboy with tits bigger than your IQ and know not only how many quarters (hint) there are in a football game but also how many minutes in a quarter, and actually enjoy watching football, women are not allowed to read this story. Sorry, but this is our story, a real man's story, a manly man and a macho man's story. +""Men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men..."" +Since all you women have your holiday chick flicks ready to watch, we men need and must have one lousy story for one day of the year, Christmas, and this is it. Okay? After all, we are men...men, men, men, men. +You will notice that I didn't write How To Have A Merry Christmas or How Men Can Have A Merry Christmas but, instead, I wrote How Men Can Have A Happy Christmas. Ergo the key word here is happy and not merry. Trust me. There's a big difference between being merry and being happy. Don't believe me? Just ask Robin Hood and his band of merry men the difference between being merry and being happy and, if they were still alive and living in Sherwood Forest, you'd make them cry because they were all so frigging miserable living in a forest, instead of living in their own houses. +Women and families traditionally have a merry Christmas, while men traditionally have a miserable Christmas. Oh, c'mon, ladies. Don't believe me? Without bribing him with food, or promising him sex, or trying to make him feel guilty, ask your man, in all honesty, if he had a merry or a miserable Christmas last year. Certainly, he didn't have a happy Christmas. That's for sure. +Go ahead and ask him. I'll wait. See? I told you so. Now, ask him what it would take for him to have a happy Christmas this year and don't be surprised if he asks you to read this story. +""Yeah! Duh? It turns out that I know your man better than you do."" +This story details how men can have a happy Christmas, finally. Sad but true, there is one most important ingredient necessary for a man to have a happy Christmas and without it, it is impossible for a man to have a happy Christmas. Of course, I'm writing about the man cave. Every man needs to have a man cave to have a happy Christmas. +It's impossible for a man to have a happy Christmas without being able to hide in his man cave during the holiday. It's impossible for a man to have a happy Christmas sitting upstairs in the living room surrounded by your family. Seriously, most men don't even like their own families. What makes you think he likes your family? Trust me. He doesn't and he never did. +""Get real."" +Sorry, but it's about time you knew the truth. Your man never liked your family. He hates your loud mouth and obnoxious brother, despises your fat, slutty sister, and dreams of putting a plastic bag over your interfering mother's head. The only member of your family that he remotely likes is your Dad because he pretends to fall asleep at family gatherings. How could he not like your Dad? He's such a poor, pitiful bastard being married to your shrew of a mother. Is it any wonder why he pretends to fall asleep just to get some peace and quiet? +For those men who don't know what a man cave is and for those men who don't have a man cave, let's begin this how to story by describing what exactly a man cave is. Of course, you'll need to know why you must have a man cave to have a happy Christmas. This story will also tell you what you need to create your man cave. +Typically, a man cave is a place away from the main house, where a man can go for some peace, privacy, and alone time. Sometimes, all men require a place away from their wife, girlfriend, and/or significant other. It could be the basement, the attic, the garage, or a room in the back of the house, such as a reconverted back porch. My man cave is in the basement, which I had soundproofed. Trust me. My wife and family doesn't want to hear me screaming at the television at a botched play, cheering after a touchdown pass, masturbating over cheerleaders, or crying when they lose the game. In fairness, just as much as they don't want to hear me, I don't want to hear the hens upstairs talking about fashion, cooking, shoes, children, the soap operas they watch, and books they've read either. +Your man cave must have a lock on the door that only you have the key. In case of an emergency, it is acceptable to give a copy of your man cave key (try saying that fast three times, man cave key) to a friend, but never, under any circumstances, can you give your man cave key to your wife, your girlfriend, and/or your significant other. That's a man cave violation because, as soon as you leave the house, they will be in there snooping. By giving them the key to your man cave, your private domain, you will have no more secrets. Your man cave will no longer be a man cave, but a family cave, and a place where your wife will entertain her friends. +""You have Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, and Lindsay Lohan posters on your man cave walls? You even have pictures of them getting out of cars without panties. Eww. That's so perverted. What is wrong with you? They're young enough to be your daughters. Shame on you."" +See what I mean? Save yourself the trouble and the embarrassment and do not give our your man cave key to the woman in your life. Whatever it is your woman finds in your man cave will surely be used against you in a court of law at the divorce proceedings. +""Your honor, he had naked, spy photos of my mother getting out of the shower pasted all over his man cave wall."" +So, what's in a man cave? Big screen TV is an absolute necessity, along with a comfortable reclining chair for relaxing and napping. Check. Also a comfortable computer chair for Internet porn site surfing, especially if you have a bad back. I recommend the Herman Miller Aeron with the lumbar support feature. It's expensive but worth it. I have one and love it. I can sit comfortably in that chair for 12 hours a day. +What else must you have in a man cave? Let's see. A collection of porn DVDs and porn magazines, of course, along with a separate computer with a different IP address from your home computer is a priority, so that you can surf the Internet for porn in privacy. Of course, the requisite pool table, along with your favorite pinball machine are favorite items to have in a man cave, as well as a workout bench, weights, or Bowflex, something to make the chicks think that you have a buff, hard body under those bulky, oversized sweats. +""He just looks fat from the outside,"" says your wife about you behind your back. ""But if you saw him naked in a darkened bedroom, while drunk and disorientated, you'd think he was someone else, a hunk."" +For convenience sake, if nothing else, so you're not having to go back and forth in the house and answer questions and/or be asked to do a household chore, you'll need a small refrigerator for beer, a bar to serve your drinks, and a cabinet to store snacks. You don't want critters and pest getting in your junk food supply. A telephone is necessary to call for pizza, buffalo wings, or Chinese food delivery, a cell phone is acceptable. A bathroom is a must have in a man cave. Trust me, you don't want to leave your man cave unattended to go through the house just to pee. If your woman sees you locking and unlocking your man cave door every time you go in the house to pee, she's going to think you're hiding something. +""Hello police? I think my husband is either a terrorist ala the Unabomber or a serial killer ala Dexter."" +The walls of your man cave are yours to decorate or not decorate. Decorating is a personal decision. A step above my ancestors on the evolution scale, whereas they decorated their man cave wall with drawings of extinct dinosaurs, I decorated my walls with automobile memorabilia and my shelves with die cast cars. I love cars. Including the ceiling, car posters grace every wall, except for the most sacred of walls, the big screen TV wall. +Yeah. That wall, but for the TV is blank and is reserved for the big screen TV, of course. That wall doesn't come alive until I feel the energy from the uninterrupted channel surfing power of that remote control that surges in my hand and pulsates my index finger, baby, enough to push the power on button for... +""Blast off! HD 3D TV. Wow!"" +One of the questions I'm commonly asked is how big should the big screen TV be? +""Huh? Are you kidding me? Duh!"" +If you have to ask, you may not be ready to have a man cave. Too many men make the mistake that the television must fit the scale of the room. The scale of the room? Are you kidding me? What scale? Scale my ass. Hey, we're not talking die cast cars here. We're talking about a big screen TV in a man cave. Who says a TV must fit the scale of the room? Where is that written? +Hey, this isn't your living room and you're not an interior designer looking to blend, coordinate, and accessorize. We're not hiding this big screen TV behind a Chinese silk print or behind a teeny tiny TV cabinet door because we don't care if we overwhelm the room with our big screen TV. Matter of fact, we want to overwhelm the room. When it comes to big screen TV's, bigger is always better. The purpose of having a man cave is to have that giant TV, so that, when someone enters your man cave, the first thing they notice is the size of your penis, or lack thereof, by the size of your big screen TV. +""Wow! That's the biggest TV I've ever seen, bigger than the jumbotron they have at the arena."" +""Yeah, baby! I really do have a big one, don't I?"" +In case you need to see your television screen from space through your skylight or basement window, you want your TV to stand out as if it's sitting on an altar and a beam from Heaven is shining down upon it. This is your cave, your man cave. The rule of thumb is to buy the TV to fit your wall, literally. If you have a ten foot by ten foot man cave space but have a 100 inch wall, it's all good. +""Perfect."" +Go for the 100"" high definition TV. Sit back in your chair and feel the experience, especially if you installed surround sound. Let the sound blow back your hair, if you have any hair or let it blow off your baseball cap. +""Beautiful."" +With a set that big, especially if it's the new 3D television, you'll feel, as if your there at the stadium. +Another question that is commonly asked is how much beer should I buy for my man cave? That's a question that can only be answered with another question. How much beer can you afford to buy? +""Okay, back the truck up and unload the beer. Put the cases on one side and the kegs on the other. What doesn't fit in the garage, you can stack around the outside perimeter. I'll bring it down the basement later."" +The last rule to have a happy Christmas is no relatives. Oh, yeah, trust me, once they know you have the man cave, they'll come bearing gifts. They'll come disguised as your brother, your father, your uncle, your grandfather, even your son, but stick to your rule of no relatives allowed for just this one most sacred man cave day, Christmas. +""Dad? Mom said to tell you we're opening the presents."" +""Go away! I'll open presents tomorrow."" +Only those invited can enter your man cave. +""You're ruining Christmas for the kids. Get out of your man cave now."" +""Sorry. This is my day. This is my happy Christmas Day. Besides, the kids are 30-years-old."" +For all those male relatives trying to get into your man cave on Christmas day, shouldn't they be home in their man cave having a happy Christmas, too? +Trust me, relatives, even male relatives, will ruin your happy Christmas. Hey, you can have relatives over any other day of the year, but if you want to have a happy Christmas, stick with the no relative rule. You'll thank me later. +Why? Nitwit relatives will only argue over something stupid, whether it's over the game or something you did as a kid. It never fails. Besides, they'll drink your beer, eat your food, and fart in your chairs. Is that how you hope to have a Happy Christmas? I didn't think so. +Let's do a recap of all that you'll need for your man cave. +1\. Big Screen TV +2\. A comfortable reclining chair +3\. A comfortable computer chair +4\.

But this isn't a counseling session on how to make love (though if you are paying attention you might recharge your bedroom playground.) But sexy stories aren't just about scenarios or kinks you haven't tried. I confess, on the Literotica list of story categories there are stories I don't care about because they just ain't my thing, though I have played with fetishes and kinks in print that would never appear in my bedroom. My quibble is with being a lazy lover _in print._ +Why are you here? You want to read about people having sex, right? But do you want descriptions of what happens in the bedrooms of the average Joes and Jills out there? Think about it: most penis in vagina sex takes about six minutes. There are lots of bored, tired couples of all persuasions. Lots of youth who have barely touched their own erotic zones much less those of another human. A lot of us are chronologically old. +There are lots of people who are pure vanilla in bed and jasmine and jalapeño salsa in their minds. There are readers who are Lotharios and Jezebels above the chin only. This is where you get to have an out-of-body experience involving the hottest romping you have ever dreamed. So this playground is for mentally living out fantasies. And a lot of you want to write this stuff. But given how long the reading list is, about everything has been writ. +So. What are you going to do? +Readers want something new. But not just, ""And now Molly does a police officer."" +You get to tell _your_ story. So that means you are cheating yourself and us if you just trot out old clichés. Unless. +If jumping right to ""He slammed his hot cock into her steaming cunt"" gets you right off then it probably does for others, too. Mostly young men who were 99% there already and so new to porn that the 'f' word spoken in their minds generates instant stiffies. +I wince when I hear a man call a woman 'babe' or 'baby'. She isn't your kid. If you are having sex with her, she is a grownup, or pretending to be. She has a name. Of course, in the evolution of your relationship, you may have found some sweet and slightly icky nickname like 'Puddles' or 'Wuzzy' or 'Clyde' and, hey, if that turns her to butter, so be it. Same goes for gals, except sometimes 'Babe' is kind of hot when applied to a guy, and OH, BABY! at the right moment is a scorcher. So, yeah, applied to men, maybe okay. +But we're talking about writing here, more than just doing. +So, First Rule is; Put down the yardstick and the measuring tape. ""Hon, can you tell me your bra size before we make love? No? Well, wrap this around your boobs and give me a reading, thanks. Thirty-eight? Got it. Your turn. Let's measure from where my dick hits my pubes to the end of my fluffy foreskin. Four and 3/16 inches? That can't be right. Let's start at my taint and stretch up from there. Ah, seven and 7/8. Much better."" +So you've got this thing called an imagination. Otherwise you wouldn't be writing stories (or reading stories, for that matter.) So use it to imagine having sex with a particular person with their own unique body. What is interesting about her breasts? Do they tilt up a little at the nipples? Do they spread out when she lies down? Are her nipples long or puffy or fat; pink, rosy, brown or mahogany? Is her ass pear-shaped or a 'high onion'? Is he lean with strange scars? Shoulders like a fullback? Taller than Lew Alcindor? Does his dick curl up or down? Thick and red or twisted and brown? Spend time letting us see face, hands, tentacles. What does the lover love about the hair at the back of her neck? How does she appreciate his treasure trail? +Second rule: Sex is more than fucking. Unless they are so charged up by the time they get to the room, or the haystack, or the airplane wing, so that it's just lock and load and over in a heartbeat, wait a while for the ""He slammed his monster rod into her steaming twat."" Imagine two real people, or a real person and a tentacled werewolf, but give them some time to do other stuff to other parts of the body before you go for the two-stroke piston. Tease your participants and your readers. His new mustache on her virgin nipples. Her hairy maw on his left buttock. Tickle. Breathe. Lick. And talk. +Third Rule: Talk. Oh yes, that. Humans can communicate with words. Don't have to be Shakespeare or Sappho. But they can say more than, ""Hey baby, can I slam my twelve inch johnson into your steaming twat?"" Maybe you wish you dared say that to a real woman but would never try it 'f'real and that's why it's hot. But why not imagine how you might get the hottest woman in the world into a situation where she would bed you? And gals, suppose you could say just the right thing to get Mr. or Ms. Magic all misty-eyed. Let 'em talk to each other; feel each other out before they feel each other up. Check out stories by Sara2000Z. She really has dialogue down. Caution: Really choose your excitement and orgasm words carefully. ""Aaaarrrgggghhh!"" or ""Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit!"" somehow pops us right out of the story. +Fourth Rule: For pity's sake, mix it up. Missionary and doggy get boring. I just discovered a website with ninety sex positions. Just search ""sex positions"" and you'll get more sites than you can shake a dick at. And he doesn't have to be in her ass to be doing something exciting and different. He doesn't have to tie her up. She doesn't have to peg him. They can actually like each other. +Fifth Rule: Location, location, location. Do more than just get your characters' clothes off. Mommy and sonny, Master and maid, Heathcliff and Cathy, Madonna and Lady Gaga, it isn't enough to put your characters on the roof, or on the moon but then have the sex be nothing but the ""old in-out"". Take your lovers to a new location: out in a rowboat, into a cave, in a tent on Everest. Let us see the location and the props. How does it feel to climax in a sling on the face of El Capitan at midnight? What is the texture and sensation of the jute ropes stretching tight across her puffy aureola? +Sixth Rule: Don't skimp on the orgasm. It's the culmination of the scene or the story. You want to get your reader off too, if possible. So ask yourself, 'What would do it for me?' You are cheating us with ""He came and came as the hot jizz poured into her steaming twat."" Unless your story has built a serious image of your lovers in the reader's mind and groin, a description like that one is like, ""Slide the paper into the service drawer and press the 'copy' button."" Oldest rule, 'show, don't tell.' Imagine your primary character's point of view and experience. ""Suddenly her hips locked to his own and he knew he could drop into her to the deepest root. But he waited for her. He felt her fire lifting, lifting. Her mouth and eyes were wide as though to devour the moonlight.... 'I need ... I need,' she gasped...."" +Seventh Rule: Get out the damned Thesaurus. And never, ever use the word 'precum.' For Thor's sake, you can find some way to say he is excited and ready to go. You can conjure up her excitement with some other word than 'dripping'. If you want your story to appeal to women and a large swathe of men, go easy on the words 'pussy' and 'cunt' unless you think your female character is the kind who would use those terms, or your male or lesbian character wants to be raw and vulgar because that's who they are, or talking dirty is a turn on you are deliberately using for the story. +Eighth Rule: It's exciting to keep it clean. Speaking of 'dirty'. Believe it or not, sex does not have to be bad to be good. Of course, if what excites you, the writer, is taking sex to the grubby side or into the dark realm, that's your kink. But it is not the default. And I don't mean just go for boring sweet mommy-daddy six minute sex. Here's a simple challenge: Twenty- five year married couple. Someone sends her an anonymous gift of a sex toy. (Do your research. Name your flavor.) How does she find out who sent it? How does it change sex with her long-time partner? Is there a new partner? What does she and/or the partner find out about her body? +Ninth Rule: Don't get stuck in his POV. Maybe you are a straight male writer and that experience is what you know. But, doh, if you want to be a better lover yourself, really pay attention to what your partner is experiencing. +• For women it can be all about the foreplay, and the foreplay can start with someone noticing their smile when they wake up in the morning. +• Not having sex all day when she wants to can be a huge turn on. +• Compliments and gentle kisses. +• Really seeing her body and appreciating all of it as it is. (Aside: Don't paint all women as hot babes. Let us see different body types. Same with guys.) +• Paying attention to everything but her wubbly bits can build a slow raging fire. +• Mouth and hands can put her on a climactic plateau that she wants to stay on as long as possible. +• Her magic button is really the only way most women get off, but many get deep satisfaction from all the varieties of being filled. (Do your research. How many variations are there between the long slow slide and the roaring short strokes?) How does she feel to have a great mostly out-of-control beast charging into her? How does she experience that last great surge and the sensation of hot liquid pouring inside? +• What are the emotions of coming down off that peak? Is the post-fuck time sleepy, or talky, or tender, or cold? +Insight: Telling stories is like reporting what you see looking over your neighbor's fence. The neighbors aren't doing anything so very different from you, but they are ... somebody else. Different body types; different way they approach each other; different positions that ring their chimes; different locations that flip on their barbecues. Some mysteries about their pasts. And how do their stories make you think about what stories you like? +Tenth Rule: Pay attention to how your characters are _feeling_. Spend some time on that. Trust me, it will make your story, and the sex, more hot. Think about it; how does your character feel as they are about to get it or give it? Are they scared? Angry? Pooped? Drunk? Curious? Impatient? Cruel? Forgiving? Ah, you see, that in order to include one of these emotions on top of the horniness you need to _tell a story,_ get inside the head of your characters and not just with dicks or tentacles. Dare to make your strong guy scared or your shy gal fierce. +Bonus rule: We often write erotica, or fantasy, or super hero stuff to imagine someone bolder and better than ourselves. But dare to put your own worries and insecurities into your character and when they get that great hook up or release your readers will really be right with you and as grateful as that perfect lover you imagine." +279,How NOT to Kiss,LargoKitt,How To,2019-10-23,2019-10-23,2022-01-04 08:29:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-not-to-kiss,Not a story; a few notes on the awful crime of bad kissing.,"['Kiss', 'Snog', 'Tongue-Fucking']",4.48,"I'm pointing this little instruction manual at any people who might be taking notes from erotic films, actors in erotic films, or, more and more, ordinary romances, or any other show or situation in which people get into a lip lock. I do not claim to be the king of lip action. However, over a few generous decades I've come to appreciate a well-placed kiss, and abhor the strange lip- gobbling that masquerades as kissing these days. So, of course, you are free to take my suggestions with more than a grain of salt; especially if you are snogging your love on the dining table. But these notes are aimed at making the foreplay a temptation treat, and hopefully coaxing a few videographers to have their performers ditch the slobber-fest and show some real passion. So, to begin: +Do not ever, I mean never do the guppy kiss. This can best be described as two people facing each other and clearly becoming hot and bothered. Then one, maybe seeing a crumb or chocolate on the other's lips, darts in mouth open like a fish eager for bait, nose to nose, snatches a quick gulp of those lips and backs out again. This may be repeated ad nauseum indefinitely by either partner, sometimes snagging a bit of lip in the process. +The guppy gulp takes this a step further. Both parties hover closer and closer to each other, mouths agape; and then, just as their lips touch the mouths both snap shut and lips push forward in a fishy pout that should only be used on grandmothers and virgin sisters. Lips smack each other with an audible juicy pop and the process is repeated again and again. +Lip wars are battles to see who is the Alpha Kisser. More vicious than the guppy kiss, this entails both partners jockeying for judo lip holds to see which one can bite vulnerable mouth flesh in a way that is supposed to be sexy but is actually hostile. +Tongue fencing, that is facing your lover nose to nose with your mouths wide open, tongues slapping at each other; not a way to show your lover you are really into them. There is a good way to French kiss and this ain't it. Pas de tout. +Deep tonguing, or shoving your tongue as deeply as you can into your partner's mouth, is equally obnoxious. It doesn't say, ""Oh lover, I just can't wait to shove it into you, or, coming from a lady, to have it shoved into me."" You're just choking somebody and the Heimlich Maneuver has no place in good lovemaking. +Fast tongue fucking or jabbing your tongue in and out as fast as you can is obnoxious unless you are a lizard. Old hint, most lovers want you to do the old in-out as slow as you can, not like Flash on his way to the can. +Avoid the bing, bang, boom. This is the fake kiss where you are just too damn hot to get to other stuff father south, so you give a predatory smack or three on the lips, dive for the nips, and then start gulping whatever they've got behind the zipper. I know, sometimes the boom is what both of you want most. But don't insult the kiss by making it a potato chip. And that middle region deserves lots and lots of time, perhaps explored in a future post. +So that's basically how NOT to do it. Here are some pointers for launching your lover before you ever get to the nitty-gritty. +How to kiss +Make eye contact with your partner and hold it for a while as you do nothing. +2\. Begin by kissing your partner somewhere else than on their lips. Foreheads are good. The back of the neck is very special. Ears. The temple in front of the ear. The chin. Even a shoulder is nice. And a kiss is not a nip, or a lick. It isn't a darting guppy smack. It's not a gross pushed out pout. Press your warm, closed lips against your lover's flesh. Make eye contact after you do it, and do it again. +3\. Real kissing is something you do to show your partner you care for them. It doesn't have to be eternal love, but you want to show them that they are very special. Remember, the phrase is to give someone a kiss. You are not taking something away, or trying to show that you are the hottest lover from central casting, or the boss. This is about them not about you. If you don't respect them, don't kiss them. +Very Important: As your face approaches your lover's turn your damn head maybe thirty degrees so your noses don't bump. +Your mouth can be closed, or slightly open; you could match your partner, and keep it that way until your mouths meet. Press your lips together, lightly, or more firmly if the spirit rises, but wait a while on the tongue action, even if your mouths are open. Hold the kiss without doing much more than that. No smacking sounds. +4\. French kissing starts best as a tease. Barely tickle your partner's tongue with the tip of yours; and take a while to go beyond that. Stop and make eye contact again. Kiss their face. Say something complimentary. +5\. Breathing is important and necessary. Holding a long kiss is terrific but take note of whether you have cut off your lover's air supply. +6\. Kissing during sex is wonderful, but not always possible, best perhaps when you are melted into a slow rhythm and your bodies match well. Some flexible partners can turn and kiss while being penetrated from behind. Kisses on the back and neck can be great at these times. Lucky the couple who can close in a kiss during climax. Probably nothing bonds you like this. And at those times nobody much is paying attention to kissing etiquette. +Still, remember that a kiss is a gift of communication and how you give that gift says worlds about how you feel about the person you are kissing, and whether it is likely to happen again. +For video pointers on good kissing scan some old movies like Gone With The Wind or From Here To Eternity. Take your time; sometimes the first act is the best act." +280,How NOT to Write,CornishBabe,How To,2007-07-28,2007-07-28,2022-01-04 08:29:51,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-not-to-write,A reverse How to Guide.,"['Author Advice', 'Grammar', 'Humourus How-To', 'Writing Advice']",4.02,"**How not to write -- A look at the common, and not so common errors on the internet** + _Please note, I can't tell people how to write, nor can I ever hope to cover all the possible mistakes people make. This is just a little piece I put together a few months back for my college's e-magazine._ +Thanks for reading! +* +With the internet information sharing has never been easier, we have online magazines springing up everywhere, and Yahoo Groups, and forums and sites such as this where amateur authors get chance to shine. Newsletters can be transferred by e-mail on simply posted on a company website. Getting news, stories, jokes and poetry to people has never been easier but has the new information age taken away our ability to use correct spelling and grammar? Are we becoming dependent on our flawed spelling checkers and forgetting how to proofread our work? +I plan to take a look into the darkest corners of the internet, largely my friends' bedrooms and the forums I often frequent, and unearth the most deadly typing errors that have tried to hide and to drag these errors kicking and screaming into the harsh light of day, namely this web page you are now reading, and hopefully I'll try and work in a little humour as well, but I wouldn't get your hopes up! +One of the most common mistakes I see is the misuse of homophones, words that sound the same when spoken aloud, but which are spelt differently. Now, if you were giving a speech the spelling of the word isn't important, but if you are trying to write a news article, or a piece of fiction, or even a blog entry that you want to be taken seriously then you need to spell things properly. +Let's take a look at an example that I unearthed whilst reading an amateur story posted on a forum that I moderate. +""Their she lay, left for dead in the grass; her lips blew with the cold as the night wind chilled her to the bone. She knew in her very sole that if she did not move she would freeze."" +Need I say anything more? Although I can make sense of what is being said from the sounds of the words, the story lost a lot of credibility as those who offered constructive criticism found it difficult to see past the spelling errors. +It should read: +""There she lay, left for dead in the grass, her lips blue with the cold as the night wind chilled her to the bone. She knew in her very soul that if she did not move she would freeze."" +After the author had corrected these errors, and the numerous others we were able to offer her more ideas of how to further improve the story because we were no longer struggling to see past the errors. Over time, what had begun life as a misspelt disaster evolved into an absorbing piece of short fiction. +My next piece of advice follows on directly from homophones and the comment I made in my opening about blindly following a spelling checker. The crucial thing to remember is that your spelling checker will not detect homophones, as they are spelt correctly, they just don't make sense. A great example of this would be in the poem 'owed to a spelling chequer' +Eye half a spelling chequer It came with my pea sea It plainly marques four my revue Miss steaks eye kin knot sea. +The complete 'owed to a spelling chequer' can easily be found by Google, or any other search engine you would prefer to us. +So, you have a piece of writing, you've been very careful about your homophones, and you've used a spelling checker, which handily also tries to help with grammatical errors, and you have tried very hard to tell your spelling checker that you write using English, not American English, or vice versa to be sure that you get everything right, what more can you do? +There is one more thing that so many people forget to do, even myself and that is to proofread your work, this will help you in many ways. By looking at your writing with a more detached view point than you had while actually writing it you may be able to notice things that don't work so well plot inconsistencies and such like that you didn't notice when absorbed in the world you were writing, while your hero was fighting off hordes of undead, or having some of the best sex of his or her life. +It should also allow you to notice simple typing errors that again your spelling checker may not have noticed because they are actual words. A good example of this is one I often do myself, writing 'tome' instead of 'tone' because m and n are right next to each other on the keyboard. +One memorable mistake I made, in a completely harmless setting thankfully, was while talking to a friend via IM, we were in a group conversation and someone asked ""How is everyone?"" to which I promptly replied ""I am god."" Now as much as I would like to think I could be God, I just don't think I would be very good at it, and it is rather a lot of responsibility. Needless to say I have never lived down my mistake, and I have learnt to always proofread and slow down a little sometimes. +Of course, things can't always be perfect and I frequently find that if I have been working on something for a long time I can often overlook mistakes in my own proofreading because I automatically know what they should say. As such, it is always a good idea to ask another person to proofread your work before you submit it for intense public scrutiny. +Now, how many mistakes have I made? That would be ironic." +281,How to 7/7/7 On GCN Gor,Joseki Ko,How To,2005-01-02,2005-01-02,2022-01-04 08:29:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-7-7-7-on-gcn-gor,A how-to guide to on 777 actions.,"['Action', 'Attempt', 'Chuckles Josekiko', 'Entered Room', 'Gcn Gor', 'Josekiko', 'Josekiko Chuckles', 'Left Hand', 'Open Gate', 'Post']",1.67,"**How to do a 7/7/7 on GCN Gor** +A 7/7/7 is actually made up of 5 different posts. These include an intent post, three separate action posts, and a done post. +Intent post; This post shows ONLY the intent to commit action against another person. The person being attacked MUST be stated in this post and a distance defined. No attacks are permitted in an Intent post. +Combat posts; These are posts showing a single action. An attack post must be at minimum 7 words of at least 3 letters in length. No abbreviations are supposed to be accepted as legitimate words. (In practice lt and rt work for left and right) There must be three of these posts. All actions in a post must be accompanied with either attempts or tries. If you attempt two actions in the same post each must be attempted or tried. However only one action may be an attack, An attempted strike must be made TOWARD a specific point on the target. +DONE; The word DONE in caps as it is here must be the last and actual 5th post of the Melee. +Any post by an attacker starting with the intent post can be broken by the person being attacked as long as their post is also a minimum of 7 words of at least 3 or more letters. Again abbreviations do not count as words. (except for lt, left and rt right) The defender must state who the attacker He or She is trying to defend against is. In the case of two combatants if a 7/7/7 is broken there are two alternatives. First the combatants may start their combat posts again trying to get three posts. (This starts from the first post after the break) Or two if a 7/7/7 is broken properly then the combat may be taken to the pit or the arena of combat in the Home the action has started in. In the case of a Woman trying to collar a Man this rule does not apply but the FW attempting to collar a Man is at risk of being collared Herself in the same 7/7/7 format. +All actions must be realistic and believable. Which brings up the second way to break a 7/7/7, It can be broken with a story line. For example when a slave goes through the escape tunnel to exit outside the home or a combatant is thrown from a moving wagon. +Example +[20:25] Piosenna has entered the room. +[20:26] *JosekiKo nods for chubby to open the gate for theFW and the girl* +[20:27] *Piosenna slowly makes her towards the main room, eyes darting about at those present.

Yet this has still left a void, I realize, so here is the counterpart to the apologizing instructions. +So, you've had a conflict. Whether you've already done your apologizing, or you are the rare ""completely-wronged-I-didn't-do-anything"" party, you are about to receive an apology. But it's just not that simple. If a person apologizes correctly, they will be showing their remorse, and a simple, ""okay"" is often not a proper acceptance. So here are some simple instructions to help you and the apologizer move forward in peace. +Preparation: +1) Get your concerns/issues/problems/complaints straight in your own head, first. After a fight, the real causes get lost, so it is important to really know why you were upset and/or hurt. This links with step 2. +2) Figure out what would make you feel better. This is VERY IMPORTANT! You must know what kind of apology you want, and how you want to move forward. Otherwise, if you are not satisfied with the apology you receive, you will not exactly know why, and not be able to voice your concerns or what would make the situation better. These need to be concrete actions/words; vague statements such as ""let me know you care"" or ""leave me alone"" or similar demands are difficult to fulfill and vary from person to person. Therefore, you must clarify for yourself what you mean with these ideas, and express them clearly to the other party. +3) Try to find your own fault in the situation. Are you setting the other person up for failure? Are your demands reasonable? Try to see what you are doing to help or hinder the communication, and its breakdown, and change this behavior. These could also be good things to bring up when receiving the apology, as this avoids the ""I'm the good one, you're the bad one"" element that makes many people unwilling to apologize. +Receiving the apology: +1) LISTEN TO THE OTHER PERSON! Often, people are not satisfied with an apology, because they do not listen to it. The other person is trying to make amends, give them a shot. +2) If you feel that the apology does not address the issue (as you figured out in the preparatory stage), calmly and clearly explain what the issue is to the other party. Explain that you recognize their wanting to apologize, but that you don't think they understand why it is that you're upset. +3) LET THE PERSON FINISH! This is another key problem. Often, while receiving an apology, the ""wronged"" party will interrupt and remind the person of what they did, that they're hurt, etc. Let the other person give the whole apology, then you can point out your issues as explained in point 2. Remember, you want to feel better, and the only way you can feel better is if the other person makes amends, but the other way the other party can make amends is if you let them get a word in. This can be difficult, I know, especially if you are still hurt. If you find it too hard, though, it might be better to tell the person that you recognize their remorse, but at this point you're still too angry for this conversation. +4) Now it's time to accept the apology. This does not mean you have to say you forgive the person, because sometimes that just takes time. But now would be the time to say that you accept the apology, that you feel better about the situation, that things have been made right. You can still say that you need time before you'll feel completely better, or before the person is fully forgiven, but you need to close the book on this. +5) Here could be a good time to bring up some of the things that you did wrong. Let the other person know that you acknowledge your own responsibility for the situation, and that you're also going to try to change in the future. +After the apology: +1) So, they apologized. Now you need to move forward. First of all, if anything still bothers you or bubbles up, approach the person in a calm way, explaining clearly and simply what is bothering you, and give the person a chance to respond. This is not excuse to keep having the same fight! You accepted the apology, you both are trying to move forward, so only do this if the issue still feel unresolved to you a day or two later. +2) Be kind. Remember, the other person feel bad and will still be filled with feelings of remorse. Don't make it any worse. You don't have to act all sweet or like everything is completely better, but don't use the situation to your advantage and make the other party feel as though their apology wasn't really accepted or didn't really move things in the right direction. If you need your pound of flesh, get it during the apology, not afterwards. +3) Try not to bring this issue back up in the next fight! Of course if it is directly related, it makes sense, but to bring up everything that you've ever fought about with someone just escalates the issue, instead of trying to move towards resolution. When you fight, remember that you're trying to solve a disagreement/misunderstanding – don't fight just because you can't back down, just try to explain your position as clearly as possible." +283,How to Analyze Your Scores,CarlusMagnus,How To,2012-01-14,2012-01-14,2022-01-04 08:29:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-analyze-your-scores,Getting as much information as possible from your Lit. score.,"['Author', 'Author How-To', 'Feedback', 'Scores', 'Writer']",4.38,"_In order to profit from this note, you must be able to read and use simple algebraic formulae. You might want to have your calculator handy to follow the examples as you read._ +************************* +It might seem that your Literotica scores don't tell you very much, but there's more in them than meets the eye. You can extract more information from them than you might expect—although probably not as much as you'd like. We'll look at some specific examples, involving particular cases, and using specialized reasoning, first. Then we'll move on to some general statements. The latter don't say as much as one might hope, but they have the virtue of always applying. +To begin with, let's remember that each voter can assign one, two, three, four, or five stars to a story. Literotica counts up all the assigned stars for a given story, divides that total by the number of people who voted on that story, and then rounds the resulting number to the nearest hundredth. It appears that Literotica's computer rounds so that the second digit past the decimal point gets bumped up by one if the third digit past the decimal is a five or larger—and otherwise doesn't change. This is typical of rounding done by computers, and we will assume throughout that Literotica's computer behaves this way. Thus, for example, if 97 readers have awarded 405 stars to your story, your score is 4.18—which is the result of rounding off the quotient 405/97 = 4.17526…. +We can work this backwards to some extent, but the score calculation destroys information in two places. That is, if all we have is the pair of numbers that Literotica gives us for a story—its score and the number of readers who voted—we can't reconstruct all of the information that went into finding that score. +In the first place, the number of voters who awarded your story five stars is concealed. Literotica knows, but we can't tease that information out of what it gives us. The same is true of the number of voters who awarded your story four stars, three stars, two stars, or dreaded one-bombs. Generally speaking, we can't reconstruct those numbers from the information that Literotica gives us. This effect is complicated by the fact that Literotica periodically removes story votes that are highly inconsistent with the general pattern of voting that it believes it sees for the story in question. These periodic removals are called ""sweeps,"" and only the folks at Literotica know what criteria they use to decide what votes to discount. +The second place where information gets lost is in the rounding. If, for example, I have a story whose score is reported as 4.01 with 412 readers, I can't reconstruct the exact number of stars my story has earned from that information. In fact, that story might have anywhere from 1651 stars to 1654 stars. Try it: 1651/412, 1652/412, 1653/412, and 1654/412 all round off to 4.01. +Sometimes, by following a story score's behavior for a little while, we _can_ recapture missing information. In the example of the previous paragraph—a story with a score of 4.01 from 412 voters, for example, let's suppose that a day later I find that story's score reported as 4.02 with 413 readers. +Now it might be that a sweep is in progress. In that case, it's entirely possible that several votes were discounted but replaced by other votes between the two times I checked my score. Because we don't know much about sweeps except that they do take place, there isn't much we can say about what has actually happened in the voting on my story. +Suppose, for example, that I had 1654 stars yesterday. It could be that Literotica swept away three one-star votes—only to have four new voters each give me a two-star vote. So today I have 1659 stars and 413 voters, which gives the expected score of 4.02. On the other hand, it is also possible that Literotica swept away a single one-bomb, and that one new voter gave me three stars while another gave me four. Then I'd have 1660 stars and 413 voters—which also gives the expected 4.02. And there are many, many other scenarios under which a sweep could produce the behavior I've observed in my score. +So sweeps further cloud the picture. But it's usually fairly easy to tell when there's a sweep in progress, because they take several days and folks on the Literotica Bulletin Board frequently remark on the way the number of votes they've gotten for some of their stories has decreased. (You may even see that the numbers of votes for some of your own stories have gone down when a sweep is going on.) Most of the time, we seem to be justified in believing that no sweep is under way. +And if we don't believe that a sweep is in progress, we can say some interesting things about the example we're currently discussing. We know, to begin with, that voter number 413 gave me a five. That's because my score went up from 4.01 to 4.02, and, in the absence of a sweep, a score can't possibly rise unless a voter has given me a vote that's bigger than the score was to begin with. +But, in this case, we can say even more. We saw above that, yesterday, when I had 412 votes, I must have had from 1651 to 1654 stars. Today, my score is 4.02, with 413 voters, so now I must have at least 1659 stars, but no more than 1662 stars. We are assuming that sweeping isn't going on at the moment, so there's only one way this could happen: I must have had 1654 stars yesterday, and I must have 1659 stars today. +One-bombs are often easy to catch this way. Suppose that my story had a score yesterday of 4.50 with 112 votes, and today I see a score of 4.47 with 113 votes today. There just isn't any way that could happen unless that single vote was a one-bomb. (Remember—we've assumed no sweep.) +But these examples are all rather special; they involve particular lines of reasoning that are specific to the numbers in question. Now I'll give some principles that we can always apply. Then I'll give an extended example. +I won't give here the reasoning that underlies these principles. I have two reasons: One the one hand, most readers won't want to slog through the mathematics, while, on the other hand, it's not at all clear that Literotica will permit the formatting and the HTML code that's necessary to discuss the mathematics in readable form. +Readers who want to know where these principles come from can use any of the methods that Literotica provides to request the details from me. But _do_ be sure to give me a way to get them back to you if you tell me you want them. Anonymous requests won't work—and I won't even be able to tell you why I haven't responded! A warning: Please don't be surprised to find that the reasoning involves some algebra—nothing advanced, but algebra nonetheless. +************************* +In the following statements, N stands for the total number of voters for your story, and S stands for its score as reported by Literotica. All of the principles listed below are true generically—regardless of whether or not a sweep is in progress. + **Five-star Principle:** +Let n denote the number of five-star votes awarded to a story. Then +a) n is no smaller than (S – 4.005) × N, and +b) n is at most N × (S – 0.995)/4. + **Four-star Principle:** +Let n denote the number of four-star votes awarded to a story. Then +a) if S does not exceed 4.00, n is at most N × (S – 0.995)/3, and +b) if S is 4.01 or larger, n is at most (5.005 – S) × N. + **Three-star Principle:** +Let n denote the number of three-star votes awarded to a story. Then +a) if S does not exceed 3.00, n is at most N × (S – 0.995)/2, and +b) if S is 3.00 or larger, n is at most N × (5.005 – S)/2. + **Two-star Principle:** +Let n denote the number of two-star votes awarded to a story. Then +a) if S does not exceed 1.99, n is at most N × (S – 0.995), and +b) if S is 2.00 or larger, n is at most N × (5.005 – S)/3. + **One-star Principle:** +Let n denote the number of one-star votes awarded to a story. Then +a) n is no smaller than (1.995 – S) × N, and +b) n is at most N × (5.005 – S)/4. + **Remark:** +These principles don't give very tight estimates for the number of votes of a particular kind. They are, nevertheless, the best general estimates available from the information that Literotica gives us. The uncertainty is built-in and can't be avoided. +************************* + **Example:** +As I write this note, I have a story whose score, with 73 votes, is 4.53. Let's see how the principles just given apply to this story. + _Five-star Analysis:_ +According to part a) of the Five-star Principle, the number of five-star votes that this story has received is no smaller than (4.53 – 4.005) × 73, or 0.525 × 73 = 38.325. But 0.325 votes is impossible, and 38.325 is the _smallest_ possible number of five-star votes my story could have. Therefore, my story has to have _at least_ 39 five-star votes. +On the other hand, part b) of the same Five-star Principle says that my story has no more than 73 × (4.53 – 0.995)/4 five-star votes. That's 73 × 3.535/4 = 64.51375, and I can't have any more five-star votes than that. But, again, fractions of a vote aren't possible, so the _highest_ number of five-star votes I could have on this story is 64. +Conclusion: The number of five-star votes I have for this story falls somewhere in the range of whole numbers that begins with 39 and ends with 64. + _Four-star Analysis:_ +My score of 4.53 is ""4.01 or larger,"" so I will use part b) of the Four-star Principle now. It says that I have at most (5.005 – 4.53) × 73, or 0.475 × 73 = 34.675 four-star votes for this story. Fractional votes are still impossible, so there can't be any more than 34 four-star votes. +Conclusion: I have no more than 34 four-star votes for this story. +Notice that if there are 34 four-star votes, the other 39 of the 73 votes must _all_ be five-star votes, or the average doesn't work out right. And if there were 35 (or more) four-star votes, there couldn't be enough five-star votes to make a score of 4.53 with just 73 votes. + _Three-star Analysis:_ +According to part b) of the Three-star Principle, there are at most 73 × (5.005 – 4.53)/2 three-star votes for this story. That's 73 × 0.475/2 = 17.3375 of them. +Conclusion: There are no more than 17 three-star votes among my 73 votes. +This time, we notice that if there are 17 three-star votes, then we can reach the score of 4.53 with 73 votes only if there are exactly 73 – 17 = 56 five- star votes. And 56 falls well within the range we determined in our five-star analysis. + _Two-star Analysis:_ +Part b) of the Two-star Principle tells us that there are at most 73 × (5.005 – 4.53)/3, or 73 × 0.475/3 = 11.558333… two-star votes. +Conclusion: This story collected at most 11 two-star votes. +If there happen to be exactly 11 two-star votes, the only way to get the books to balance is to have a single four-star vote and 61 five-star votes. These numbers are consistent with our earlier analyses. Any more than 11 two-star votes, and balance isn't possible. + _What about the one-bombs?_ +Part a) of the One-star Principle assures us that there must be at least (1.995 – 4.53) × 73 one-bombs amongst our votes. But that's a negative number, so part a) of the One-star Principle doesn't tell us anything we didn't already know: The number of one-bombs is at least zero. A good look at the principle tells us that this will happen any time a score exceeds 1.99. So, if our writing is any good at all, part a) of the One-star Principle isn't very useful. (A similar phenomenon is attached to the Five-star Principle, half of which isn't very useful if a score less than 4.01) +On the other hand, part b) of the One-star Principle says there can't be any more than 73 × (5.005 – 4.53)/4 = 73 × 0.475/4 = 8.66875 one-star votes for this story. +Conclusion: I know that this story can't have been trolled more than eight times. +Notice that if eight of the nasty critters are among my voters, then I must also have collected either 1 three-star vote together with 64 five-star votes or 2 four-star votes together with 63 five-star votes. (And, either way, I'm pleasing—really pleasing—a lot of people in spite of my rather moderate score.) Nine trolls isn't possible, because that would leave room for only 64 five-star votes—and that would give me a score of only 4.51. +Do the troll votes have much of an effect on my score? Unfortunately, they might. I can't know how many of them there really are, but there might be as many as eight. If there really are eight, my score would be a very impressive 4.97 once they and their votes were removed from the pool. +This alone suggests that eight is a very high estimate, and that it is much more likely that there are zero to three one-bombs amongst my 73 votes. You can check that if there were a single one-vote and it were to be removed, my score from the remaining 72 votes would be 4.58. If there were just 2 one- votes and they were removed, the remaining 71 votes would give me a score of 4.63. Three one-votes, 4.69. +************************* + **Final Remarks** +The fact that Literotica conducts periodic sweeps shows that they retain a good bit of voting information—much more, in fact, than running counts of stars awarded and numbers of votes. We can wish that, instead of reporting the minimally informative average score for a story together with the number of voters involved, Literotica would tell authors how many voters assigned one star, two stars, etc., to each story. Then none of the analysis described above would be necessary, and authors would have better information about how many people they're pleasing and how much. +************************* + _Please leave your comments and your suggestions.

I'm not entirely sure why this is, but has become increasingly obvious to me. Apologies can easily seem half-assed and meaningless, but a real apology is priceless. It's not about groveling for forgiveness; it's about showing remorse and trying to make the situation better. +Below, you will find some key points of how to apologize to a woman. Men usually don't comment on the quality of an apology, nor do they seem to criticize an apology when they receive one; therefore, it is safe to assume that this form works for both genders, although I would be happy to hear if any men contradict this. +1) The first step is to actually utter the words ""I'm sorry"". Now, this may sound rather simple, but it's almost scary how many people have a hard time with those words. Of course, the words themselves are not enough. If you scream them, or say them in a way that sound devoid of emotion, these words will be meaningless. They only have power when they are uttered with a tone of remorse. +2) Next, you must acknowledge what you did. This can be a range of things, but should always include the action/words that caused this apology to be necessary, as well as whatever pain and suffering came along with that. It is not enough to just apologize for some vague thing -- this step is necessary for making the person who has been hurt (sometimes both parties) feel that their concerns have been heard. +3) Beyond that, you must admit that your actions were wrong. Sometimes just using that word can make all the difference. If you skip that part, the other person will assume that you feel justified in your actions, and the apology will be nullified. Of course, there are situations where you do not think all your actions were wrong. In this case, state those actions you do believe were wrong, and clarify your others in the next step. +4) Now, it is necessary to explain your intent. Usually, when people do something that necessitates an apology, they were trying to do something else and something went wrong. As such, it is important to explain what you were trying to do when things went awry. Of course, it is important to explain that this is NOT AN EXCUSE! You are not trying to get away with what you did, but just make it clear that it was not your intention to upset the other person. You can even say outright, ""This is not an excuse. I want to explain why I did what I did, but I am not trying to say that what I did was the right thing to do."" +5) This is the part that most people forget to do. This when it is important to explain what the person means to you, and how much you want to make amends. This makes any apology go above and beyond, to the point of actually helping to move towards reconciliation. You wouldn't apologize if you didn't want the other person to accept your apology, so make sure they know what your relationship (working, friendship or otherwise) means to you, to let them know that it has some value to you and is worth fixing. If appropriate, this can be a good time to give the person a compliment (that is in some way connected to the precipitating incident) and explain the importance they have in your life; you have hurt this person, it's time to try to make them feel better. +6) Repeat these steps until your apology is accepted and you are able to make peace with the person. +7) Be open to letting them say what hurt/bothered them. Even if they've already told you before. Sometimes they will need to say again why they are upset. PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT THEY SAY! This is what you must mention again in steps two and three. If they feel the need to repeat it, it is probably because they do not feel that you have heard them/understood. If, after repeating step two twice or more, ask them if you have covered everything or left anything out. Remember, you want to make sure they know that they've been heard, and sometimes just checking will make them know that this is important to you and that you really want to make sure you understand why they are upset. +8) At the beginning of the next conversation, it is helpful to just make sure the person is feeling okay. Sometimes, new things bubble up after an apology, and if you want to move forward in peace with that person, just make sure that everything is still as you left it at the end of your apologetic conversation. +Of course, every person has their own style, and specific things that may be more or less important to them. However, if you follow these steps, your apology is more likely to be successful. Now remember, if it is insincere, the other person will know! These steps will only work if you truly feel remorse, and are just unsure of how to express it." +285,How to Appreciate a Man,Selena_Kitt,How To,2006-05-17,2006-05-17,2022-01-04 08:29:56,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-appreciate-a-man,What's the secret to appreciating the man in your life?,"['Relationship Advice', 'Self-Help', 'Sex Advice']",4.74,"Author's Note: I am **not eligible** to win this contest--just entered it for fun. I do hope you enjoy this entry and I welcome feedback. -SK +\-------- +I love men. I love the way they move—their straight, tall spines and the way their eyes check out the perimeters of any new room they enter. I love the way they will protect anything smaller and more vulnerable than themselves. I love how generous and kind they are at heart. I love their focus and direction, how they can spend hours figuring out how it all works, endlessly fascinated. And yes, I love that they can lift the heavy stuff, start lawn mowers, open jars, and kill spiders. +I have grown up in a culture that doesn't give up the love to men very much. From bumbling dads like Bill Cosby who feed kids chocolate cake for breakfast to the comical but idiotic-like Homer Simpson or Everybody Loves Raymond, the images of men in our culture have served to show them as silly and superfluous. +My daughter, now fifteen, has an even less clear definition of the masculine to go on. She is entering a world of dating where men are ""metrosexual"" or ""ubersexual""—perfectly coiffed, buff, hairless men who can go head-to-head with her in deciding on wedding favors and colors for the curtains. It makes my head spin. +To me, one of the best things about men is how different they are from women. It is, admittedly, one of the most frustrating things about them, too. I can understand the world's constant pressure to create a gender neutral ground where we can all communicate in the same language, instead of trying to speak two versions of alien to each other. On the other hand, if you take all the masculine out of the masculine and all the feminine out of the feminine, you no longer have anything to attract the other. Neutral things have no charge, no spark. +As a woman, I love and revel in the differences between the sexes, physical and otherwise. I know too many women, though, who hate men. I don't even know if they know they hate men, but the way they talk about men—their husbands, brothers, fathers—is so demeaning and castrating that it makes me cringe to hear it. I know, because I used to talk about and think about men this way, too, at a certain point in my life. +In my marriages, one failed, and one a work in progress, I have discovered a few things about really appreciating the men in my life. I learned it by trial-and-error and by making a lot of mistakes. I'm still by no means perfect—I often lapse in my appreciation of the opposite sex—but I always come back to it now, and remember how much I really do love men. They are amazing, and so deserving of feminine recognition. +And the secret is—are you ready for this?—they live for it. In fact, if a man isn't being appreciated by the feminine, eventually, he just disappears. Sometimes, he literally leaves, and sometimes he just checks out of the relationship somehow. He craves appreciation, acknowledgment and respect. Now, let me be clear. I'm not talking about approval. That sets up a power dynamic, more like a mommy approving (or disapproving) of a son. That's not what he wants. +I'm talking about appreciation, an open expression of heartfelt gratitude. It's so simple. He carries in the groceries. You say thank you. He fixes the dishwasher. You listen to all the ins and outs of his trial and error method, ooo-ing and ahh-ing in all the right places, and in the end, you kiss him and thank him for your amazing new working convenient and time-saving appliance. +It sounds contrived, but I'm not saying you should do it in an insincere way. In fact, he'll know if you're not really appreciative. And frankly, aren't you truly glad that he's strong enough to carry in the groceries? Aren't you glad you don't have to wash dishes by hand? And beyond that, aren't you grateful that he's willing to do something so generous for you? +Giving him a genuine expression of your appreciation in the moment is like putting money in your relationship bank. You are investing in the future of your relationship with every smile, kind word, touch, and thank you. +Here's another little secret—the more you thank him and appreciate what he does—the more he will do. This doesn't mean you should say thank you as a manipulation. It should always be a genuine expression of your heart. Still, expressing your gratitude creates this wonderful cycle of generosity from your partner, which in turn inspires more appreciation from you, and so it goes. +Men are actually very kind and generous souls. When women make demands on men, they feel burdened, and often seem stingy. You can tell a man what you want, and in fact, you should. Contrary to feminine belief, men are not mind readers. They want a woman who knows what she wants, and who will express that. But that doesn't include making demands or bargains to get it. +I knew a woman once who hated oral sex—giving it, of course—but she wanted a new diamond ring for their tenth anniversary. So, she made a bargain. ""I will give you a blowjob every time you put away a hundred dollars toward my ring."" After the newness of oral sex wore off for him, though, he got bored, and stopped putting money away. +Yes, a man bored with blowjobs. How could this be? Because he knew that, for her, it was just a means to an end. There are very few men that I know who want to feel as if a woman is with them just to get something. He would rather forgo the oral sex than feel like he was being used or manipulated. If you are giving your ""appreciation"" just to get something, you can forget it. It will backfire every time. +And here we come to another secret about men. Do you know the best way you can show a man you truly appreciate him? You might not believe me, but I've found that it's generally true. Men want to experience a woman experiencing pleasure. It is the most tantalizing thing in the world for the masculine. That doesn't necessarily mean in bed, although there, too, of course, but it can be as simple as laughing at his jokes, smiling at him when he does something goofy, or saying ""Mmm!"" when he brings you chocolate. +It's really as simple as enjoying life in his presence. He loves and lives for giving you pleasure, in bed and out. I knew a woman whose husband constantly complained about how much she spent on clothes. She was a beautiful woman, with a great figure, and she was, admittedly, a huge clothes horse. You know the kind, with more shoes than Imelda Marcos. This was a huge power struggle between them, until finally, she gave up and said, ""Fine. I won't buy any clothes unless you buy them for me."" +What happened? She discovered that her husband was actually much more generous with her than she had been with herself. He took her shopping, bought her beautiful dresses that she would have been afraid to purchase because their price tags were cost-prohibitive. Instead of sneaking her purchases here and there, filling her closets on the sly, she allowed him to give her pleasure, which in turn gave him pleasure, and the outcome was better than she could have imagined. +This applies to between the sheets as well. The best way you can appreciate your man in bed? Open yourself to receiving pleasure from him. Go ahead and ask your man what gives him more pleasure—his enjoyment, or yours. You'll be surprised by the response. +He gets an incredible rush from giving you orgasms, from making you moan and squeal and giggle and gasp. There is nothing that makes a man feel more appreciated and acknowledged than watching his lover's face as she dies into bliss in his arms, knowing he took her to that place. +Now, that said—men don't want a performance. In spite of the ""When Harry Met Sally"" conjecture that a man doesn't really know when a woman is faking—men aren't stupid. They are linear, focused, clear and direct, but they aren't stupid. They know when a woman is acting, when she isn't really feeling what she's expressing. They know when someone is being insincere and disingenuous, and they will know if you are faking, even if they don't say so. +Which brings us to the two things that you can do to cultivate appreciation for a man: 1.) Know what you want 2.) Ask for what you want. I know it sounds like a paradox, but the best appreciation a man can receive is to experience the deepest, most genuine pleasure of a woman. +In or out of bed, this applies. And of course rule number three would be: 3.) Thank him for giving you what you wanted. It's so simple, and yet so many women don't have a clue what they want, or if they do know, they don't know how to ask for it... and then, if they get it, they're so embarrassed for wanting it in the first place, they find it hard to say ""thank you."" +What you need to remember is that a woman's enjoyment is the secret ingredient. He wants to see that everything he does, everything he works for, everything he offers, is appreciated by his woman, whether that's watching her face when she opens the gift, or seeing her eyes light up when he gives her flowers, or watching her toes curl when she cums. +""But what if my man doesn't do that kind of stuff!"" you say? Recognize what he does do, right now. I don't care how small it is. Did he bring in the garbage cans? Thank him. Did he rinse his dinner dishes? Thank him. Did he take the baby for an hour? Thank him. I don't care if you asked him to do it, or if it's something he's ""supposed to do and why should I thank him for that?"" Thank him. +Find that spark of gratitude in your heart, and give it to him. The more you do, the brighter the fire will burn between you. +Now, there is one caveat to appreciating a man. A woman has to be able to express her pleasure and enjoyment without demeaning him or making him small in the process. In other words, there should be no ""Buts"" attached to the ""Thank yous."" +""Thank you for rinsing your dishes... BUT you could have put them in the dishwasher."" +""Thank you for taking the baby... BUT you didn't change his diaper."" +""Thank you for bringing in the garbage cans... BUT you forgot to shut the back door."" +That ""BUT"" will serve to negate the appreciation. It's like putting money in the bank and taking it right back out again. You never build a surplus. So what if you're right? And of course, you are. But would you rather feel pleasure or anger? Would you rather feel right or feel loved? +So, he didn't put the dishes in the dishwasher, or change the baby's diaper, or shut the back door... but he did rinse his dishes, take the baby and bring in the garbage cans. Acknowledge and appreciate the small stuff. You will find, soon enough, that you will have more and more to acknowledge, as time goes on, because the more you do, the more he will do, too. +The hardest part I've found is saying ""Thank you"" when my own tank doesn't feel full. When I feel like I'm running on empty, it's the last thing I want to do. When this happens, I know I'm not experiencing enough joyful things in my life. I need to take some time for myself—take a bath, take a walk, take a break. Usually, after I do something for me, I can find that gratitude in my heart again. +One of the ways I've found to really appreciate my man when I know I've been slacking off in the appreciation department (and I know, because I start feeling grouchy and hostile and resentful of everything) is to stand in front of him, put my hand on his heart, and say, ""My magnificent man... I really appreciate you for_____."" You fill in the blank. +It can be one thing, or ten. The more, the better, actually. You'll find yourself softening, too, the more things you can find to acknowledge him for. And ask any man reading this right now, even as goofy as the ""my magnificent man"" part sounds, if he would love to have his woman put her hand on his heart and say such a thing with all the love in the world in her eyes? Go ahead, ask. You might be surprised. +When it comes to appreciating men, a woman really has everything she needs already. She's built for pleasure and he craves her enjoyment of it. It's really a beautiful thing, when it works. A woman who is self-confident, who knows what she wants and expresses it without being demanding, and who can revel in her sincere, genuine enjoyment and pleasure, will go a long way toward being able to truly appreciate the man in her life." +286,How To Appreciate A Woman,Sex and Death,How To,2006-06-07,2006-06-07,2022-01-04 08:29:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-appreciate-a-woman,What's the real truth about appreciating a woman?,"['Relationship Advice', 'Secrets', 'Self-Help', 'Sex Advice', 'Woman']",4.61,"Appreciation is a potent drug. When a woman appreciates a man she lets him know he is respected and trusted. When a man appreciates a woman she gets to feel cherished and beautiful. And not only does appreciation cause different effects in women and men, it needs to be administered differently to women than to men. +Don't worry about asking your doctor for a prescription, appreciation is an over-the-counter medication (or over the bed rail, the kitchen table, the hood of the car...) Want to really appreciate your woman? Here's how. + _Disclaimer: administration of the information herein may result in the exposure of parts of the woman in your life that she has seldom revealed to you. Side effects may include, but are not limited to, wild abandon, sweet surrender, and squealing playfulness, as well as any other combination of the adjectives and verbs that comprise her unfathomable nature._ + **But Winning _Is_ Everything, Isn't It?** +You were conceived, born, grew up. You got to the prepubescent age and started noticing that funny feeling in your lower belly when you oh-so-subtly snuck up on ""that"" girl on the playground and pulled her pigtails; when you acted cocky in front of your friends, for her benefit, with a joke or a heroic effort in a football game; when you ran after her in the hallway or after school, ""Hey, Allison, wait up! Carry your books?"" +Then you reached puberty. Your cock started getting hard when you would see Allison, think about Allison, dream about Allison...and when the wind would blow. You couldn't keep your hands off your cock, and you could barely keep your hands off Allison. This is when you got the message that you had to become either a Nice Boy or a Bad Boy. Remember that? Oh sure, there were variations of the game—Jock, Nerd, Burnout, Poet— but it all boils down to Nice Boy or Bad Boy. Which did you choose? Nice? Bad? Some combination thereof? Was it a tag-team effort depending on which role was required in the moment to obtain the Golden Fleece (so to speak)? +So, you developed your Nice Boy-Bad Boy game plan, or you decided to sit on the bench, or you may even have been inclined to join the other team and avoid the opposite sex altogether. Whatever your game plan, this guide is aimed at those seeking to better and more deeply appreciate a feminine heart, whether that heart is in the body of a woman or a man. Modulate pronouns as you see fit. +You practiced. You adjusted your game plan. You had some degree of success and some degree of failure. At some point, you scored, you made fire, you bagged your doe, you got yourself a woman. Touch down! Two points! He shoots, he scores! It's in the hole! +Ok, so now that you've got her, what do you do with her? How do you keep her? Why would she stay? What can you offer her? + **It's Not Whether You Win Or Lose...** +A woman is not a goal line reward. She is not a trophy. She is not an accomplishment. She is a flower, the weather, the full spectrum radiance of light itself. She is a great mystery, an unfathomable beauty. And, like these things, she is a gift to be appreciated, not a problem to be fixed or a goal to be achieved. +Don't get me wrong, she enjoys the hunt and the game, being the prey and the prize. So don't box up your broad heads or high tops and put them in the basement behind the holiday decorations just yet. She feels seen and beautiful when you pursue her. But if she feels unappreciated, there will be no pursuit, or anything else. +You may be asking, ""But doesn't the fact that I won her show her that I appreciate her?"" ""Wasn't appreciating her part of the whole 'winning her' thing?"" ""Can't I just quietly slip out of bed, grab my clothes and shoes and leave...or maybe just call her a cab?"" Sure. Go ahead. I'm sure she'll let you know just how much she felt appreciated if you do that. Let me know how that works out for you. +You know when a woman's feminine heart feels unappreciated. She is angry, grouchy and irritable. She doesn't take care of herself. She withdraws, withholds, shuts down, closes up. She complains and nags, takes charge, tells you what to do, does things herself that she expected you to do. She undermines and threatens. She usurps your power, cuts you down to size and goes for your balls. +You may think her anger, however she expresses it, is a punishment for you, but it isn't. Every woman knows that when she is feeling unappreciated and unloved, and is acting out in anger because of it, she is really punishing herself. Deep down in her heart, she blames herself for your lack of attention, presence and integrity. She feels she is not beautiful or loveable. She feels worthless and unseen. If you think this is how she wants to feel, then you probably think that a 4.6L DOHC 4 valve per cylinder engine sounds better with a thrown rod. +Whatever social, philosophical or psychological partnership models and rules you subscribe to, however much you value being equal partners in an equitable and comfortable 50-50 relationship, those blueprints no longer apply at this point (and never really did). When you promised to be with this woman, whether you asked for it or not, she gave you her heart. She trusted you with it. You are responsible for it. It is in your hands. If you aren't willing to do whatever needs to be done to rise to the occasion, you should save yourself, and her, a lot of trouble, pain and grief, and simply leave. +This is a challenge, a test, my friend. She wants you to step up. She has given her heart to you and she is laying it bare, open and raw before you because she knows—she knows in the very fiber of her being—that you have what it takes, that you measure up, and that you are the man for the job. But she's not going to keep offering her heart to you forever. Sooner or later, if you don't step up, you'll have used your time outs and the buzzer will sound. This is a challenge. Take it as such. Men grow through challenge. Time to separate the men from the boys. +This sounds harsh. It sounds impossible. It sounds like a hassle and a burden. A real pain in the ass. The short end of the stick. But, as men, we aren't always attuned to the subtle messages and nuances of the feminine heart. She has probably been turning up the volume for years before we have finally heard how she feels. For many of us, it's too late when it gets to this point. She is too angry to open up to us again, to trust us again and feel the pain of our failure to respond one more time. She leaves. +There you have it. She's gone. No more hassle. No more burden. No more pain in the ass. Finally, a fair deal. We're free, right? Or are we? If we can't find our freedom, a sense of knowing who we are and what we're here to do, while we're in the midst of relationship and its inherent pathos and drama, then we are not really free at all, are we (notice, that's not a question.) + **The Challenge** +I paint a pretty harrowing picture, I know. Edvard Munch's painting, The Scream, comes to mind. But it doesn't have to be this way (yet again.) As a matter of fact, there are some basic instructions you can follow to troubleshoot, repair and maintain your relationship and deeply serve the feminine heart in your life, to encourage her in giving her gift of beauty to you and to the world (figuratively speaking, of course, unless you're into that sort of thing.) +This is a challenge, yes. But taking on this challenge presents us with unforeseen rewards. Each time we step up and stand our ground in the miraculous, tumultuous, unfathomable heart of a woman, while not compromising our freedom and integrity, we accomplish several things: we take back our balls; we allow her to give us her pleasure (which is a greater reward than feeling our own pleasure); and we become better men. If you need a payoff, and serving your woman for her sake, not yours, isn't your primary motivation, then these rewards probably won't be enough for you either. Better to stop reading here. +But, if you're feeling man enough to take up the gauntlet, then enter at your own risk, for here there be dragons. +How do you appreciate a woman? 1. Earn her trust. 2. Claim her heart. 3. Be fully present with her. 4. Push past her defenses +To perfect the slapshot you have to first have a proper stance on the ice, followed by proper puck positioning, and finish with proper weight transfer and follow through with your swing. If your initial stance is out of balance, the whole shot is off, but when each phase of the shot is mastered and performed in the proper sequence, the whole slapshot transcends the sum of its parts and becomes a beautiful and powerful act of artistry. The four phases of appreciating a woman are the same. It works best to gain competency in one phase before moving on to the next. Once competency is gained in all four phases, the phases of the process can come together masterfully and artfully. + **1\. Earn Her Trust** +Keep your word. Walk your talk. Take the initiative. Decide what you're going to do, tell her what and when, and then do it. Seems simple enough, doesn't it? +Before we can keep our word, we have to take the initiative, decide what our word is, and then we have to say it out loud. This takes more courage than we like to admit. Every time we take the initiative and make a decision and voice it, we risk rejection. Remember, nobody ever died from rejection, and the fear of it is always worse than the reality. If your woman knows you'll collapse at the first sign of rejection, she'll keep pressing that Big Red Button until you overcome it. She will continue to test you. That's her job. You will continue to rise to the occasion. That's your job. +Refusing to take initiative is the safe way out. We know it well. Ever say something like this to your woman? ""Honey, it's your birthday, and I want to take you out to dinner, and then shopping. We can go anywhere you want, just let me know what you decide!"" I imagine you got a favorable response. +Have you ever tried something like this? ""It's your birthday. We're going out. Wear something dressy, black and above the knee. Pack an overnight bag with the red panties, bra and fishnets that make you wet when you wear them. Be ready by eight."" Try it. Thank me later. +If you don't take the initiative, you put your woman in the position of doing so, and she will feel you don't trust yourself to take the lead. She wants to trust you, but she won't if you don't trust yourself. Why should she? +Taking the initiative doesn't mean you're being selfish and laying down the law. This isn't D/S 101. Take the initiative with confidence, but remember you are doing so not for your own ego or pleasure, but to allow her to trust you, which is what you both want. If she offers positive feedback, then go with it. If she offers negative feedback, then re-evaluate your decision and make a new plan. Honor her feeling. It is her gift to you. But take it as information, not as a Royal Decree. +I have found that a woman's heart takes priority over her words, and that her heart and her words aren't always on the same page. She feels appreciated when you trust her heart and feelings more than her words and push past her words into her heart. (Don't buy that? How many times have you asked an obviously angry or distraught woman what's wrong and gotten the response, ""Nothing!""?) +Taking the initiative is a necessary risk if you want to begin appreciating the feminine heart of the one you love. But keeping your word is the next step in Phase 1 of earning her trust. +Women love Harrison Ford and the men he portrays. Indiana Jones. Han Solo. John Book. Jack Ryan. Even Allie Fox, the over-driven inventor from Mosquito Coast. A defining quality they all share? They say what they're going to do and they go hell bent for leather, risking life, limb and the security of families, nations and galaxies to get it done (and not even their woman pleading with them not to go or threatening them with divorce or death will keep them from their appointed tasks, their missions, their raison d'etre, which we will address later). Take out the garbage, come home from work on time or give her that back rub like you promised, with that attitude, and see how that reads on the Trust-O-Meter. +We're talking about integrity here. There is very little that wounds and hurts the feminine heart more than broken promises and patterns of not doing what we say we will do. Taking the initiative and following through is a tall order for generations of men who were taught from an early age that they should be good boys and not be too assertive. Many men have become too accommodating of others to act at all. Strong masculine hearts that are decisive and trustable are too rare, but developing those qualities is a way to deeply appreciate a woman. +There's a back door to this. If you don't actually plan to leave the toilet seat down, mow the lawn before the game, or fix her broken headlight after work, then DON'T promise to do it. It's far better to say NO, than to say YES and not follow through. She will trust and appreciate your NO, as long as you follow through with it. Oh, she may storm or complain, but if you stick to your guns, she will appreciate that you know what you can and can't do, and when, and that you manage and value your time and energy enough not to placate her with empty promises. + **2\. Claim Her Heart** + _It's a good day to die! It belongs in a museum! This is your mission if you choose to accept it. To boldly go where no man has gone before. To protect and serve. I'm here to chew bubblegum and kick ass—and I'm all out of bubblegum. Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds._ +A woman who feels your claim on her heart is a woman who feels deeply appreciated. A woman wants you to take her, pin her to the wall (or table, or floor, or bed) and claim her fully and completely—body, heart and soul. But she doesn't want to be the reason you wake up in the morning, what drives you, what makes you tick. She doesn't want to be your reason for being alive. She doesn't want to be your mission in life. And you can't claim anyone until you have staked your own claim in the world. She may say that she wants to be your everything but, if you make her your everything, she will know you are easily manipulated and swayed from your course and she won't fully trust you. +You cannot claim your woman's heart and make her feel, of all the wildflowers on the mountainside, that she is the woman you choose, unless you know who you are and where you're going. She wants to be your inspiration, the energy that fires you up to take on the world, your healing balm when you return home from the battle. She will not feel appreciated if you fumble around in life with no greater purpose or mission than to make it to the weekend to watch the game, play your X-Box, or go out with the guys. If you don't know where you're going in life, she won't feel safe enough to let her guard down and fully open up to you, and she will take responsibility for where the relationship is going because you have abdicated not only the responsibility for taking the lead in the relationship but the responsibility of taking the lead in your own life. A woman doesn't open her heart when she feels needed. She opens her heart when she feels wanted. Life is a great adventure, and a woman wants to be a part of that adventure with you. +There is a John Cusack movie, one of his earlier teenage chick flicks, Say Anything. If you recall, when Cusack's character, Lloyd, first meets his new girlfriend's father at dinner, and the father is grilling him about what he wants to do with his life, Lloyd says, ""What I want to do with my life is be with your daughter. I'm good at it."" At that moment, Lloyd became even more of a sweetheart to many of the women watching him, but it also became clear that Lloyd had no direction in his own life and was following his girlfriend around like a puppy. +The woman in your life wants to feel that you are living on purpose, that you have a mission that is greater than her and greater than yourself, that you know who you are and what you're supposed to be doing while you're here. And she wants to feel that you would rather die than turn from your course, and that you want to die with the rudder in your hands. +If you don't know who you are or where you're going, stop whatever you're doing, including reading this how-to article, and find out. You can't claim a woman's heart if you don't have any ground to stand on. And she won't feel appreciated if she feels that she is distracting you from knowing who you are and where you're going. +The masculine heart feels no greater pain than not knowing who he is and where he's going. Finding out who you are and where you're going requires that you move out of your comfort zone and be tested, learn your place in the Big Picture, and learn your mission and purpose from whatever you discover is greater than yourself. Nothing you can do will show your appreciation for your woman more than this. +But this is an article informing men how to appreciate a woman, not an article informing men how to live on purpose (although they intersect) so if you'd like that information, or you're a woman who wants a man in your life to have it, give me a shout out, maybe there's a how-to waiting to be written. + **3\. Be Fully Present** +Does the woman in your life have to put a shot clock on the nightstand and get open outside the 3 point line to get your attention? +If light, flowers, art, and beauty were persons, they would all want the same thing. They would want to be seen, noticed and paid attention to. That is their nature. Same goes for the woman in your life. The more deeply she is seen, the more she will reveal herself. +You know that a woman is feeling appreciated when she reveals herself to you. She will feel appreciated and reveal herself to you if you focus your full attention on her and are fully present with her without distraction. To a woman, experiencing your full presence is like experiencing your seeing right into her heart and soul. +A woman also knows when you are not paying attention, when you are not noticing her, when you are not fully present. What are the things that distract you from being fully present with your woman? Does the woman in your life wonder if you'd rather be sleeping with David Letterman, your double- bevel laser-leveled compound mitre saw, Yuna from Final Fantasy, or your best friend, Stan? +Am I saying that you have to be fully present with your woman every moment? No. And she doesn't want that either. As I mentioned, if the woman in your life is the only thing that attracts your attention and presence, she will know you have no sense of who you are and where you're going. I'm saying that when you _have_ promised to be with your woman, she will feel more appreciated if you give her your _full_ presence and attention. +If you have promised, either directly or indirectly, to be with your woman, and you are distracted by something, your woman will feel that she is less attractive than whatever has distracted you. You may know that she's more important to you than the latest rerun of Mythbusters, but she won't feel the truth of that in her heart. She'll feel unseen, unloved, and unappreciated. Is testing the deceleration rate of various ballistic projectiles in water really worth it? +A masculine heart is not a rainbow. It is a laser beam (doesn't that make you feel like a superhero?) If you're a man who has trouble staying on target, focusing all your attention and presence on your priority on the moment, whether that is your work, your play or your woman, then basic relaxation and meditation exercises can help. +You can find books, audio and video, and information on the Internet that provides instruction on basic relaxation and meditation. Only 5-10 minutes a day of mental focusing practices can make a difference in your ability to remain present and undistracted, and it will improve your focus and attention in every area of your life, including your relationships. Don't take my word for it. Try it and see if the woman in your life feels more appreciated when you're with her. +When a woman feels your deep presence, she feels she can relax, let her guard down, and reveal herself deeply in her many colors and textures and hues and shapes. Remember, a feminine heart is like the weather, always changing and unfolding. She is the beauty of the calm and the storm, the light and the dark, the heat and the cold. +A woman will even begin to test you when she feels your attention and presence become more focused. She will begin to seemingly throw surprise behaviors and mood changes at you, which will seem irrational and out of the blue (because, to the masculine, they are.) She will feel appreciated if you hold your focus and presence and do not collapse. She doesn't want to feel you check out, no matter what aspect of her heart she is revealing to you. She wants to be seen fully, even in her wildest, darkest and scariest aspects, and she wants to know you will not collapse, run or check out. +For example, a sure way to get my wife to strip for me and give me a lap dance is for me to work on a project in the same room that she's in. If I lose focus on my project and pay attention to her, I may get some sugar, but if I stay my course and don't collapse, I end up with her, um, deeper appreciation (read her how-to entitled How To Appreciate a Man for what that means). + **4\. Push Past Her Defenses** +Once you have earned her trust, claimed her heart, and established a pattern of being present with her without distraction, she will want more. Who wouldn't? Once she feels appreciated enough to give you her trust, you can continue to appreciate her even more by pushing past her defenses and guiding her to reveal parts of herself that she would not reveal if she didn't trust you. +You have come to a point with the woman in your life that she trusts you and feels appreciated on a consistent basis. She can still open even more and reveal even more of herself to you, which is what she longs to do. She longs to give herself to you and trust you as completely as possible. She never feels any more appreciated than when you honor her longing by making yourself into a man she can keep revealing more of herself to, the man she knows you are deep down in her secret heart. +Knowing the ways in which your woman wants to open is a matter of feeling what she wants in her heart, feeling what she wants no matter what her behavior and words may say. It's easy to get confused and be uncertain. Feeling her heart takes practice, but it can be done. It's not magic. +You can remember those moments when you knew she would enjoy a night out with friends more even though she said she'd rather just stay home, or when she said nothing was wrong but you knew something was bothering her, or when she would feel more attractive in the red dress than the formal black. (And sometimes, no matter what she says, no matter how devoted she's been to the low-glycemic index since a waffle-less breakfast, she really does want ice cream.) +Use those moments as guidelines to remind you that feeling her heart and acting for her sake is possible, to remember what it feels like when you do it, and practice feeling her heart and pushing past her defenses even though she may be scared or may initially protest. +My wife is a practicing doula, which is a woman who helps women, couples and families during pregnancy, birth and during the first months of the new baby's life through education and physical and emotional support. My wife's secret dream was to become a doula. Her first husband wanted her to have ""real"" job like a ""normal"" person. +When we first married, my wife could barely even talk with me about her dream. She was so sensitive and full of self-doubt about her dream that, on several occasions, she actually ran and hid when I brought the subject up. I could feel her desire to do this work and offer her amazing gifts in such a vocation even through her fear and self-doubt. +Through encouragement and persistence, I continued to make it safe and possible for her to make her dream a reality. Today she is a much sought-after practicing doula. I don't take any credit for who she is or what she's doing. I just helped her by pushing past her defenses and comfort zone so she could find the courage to do what was already in her to do. I earned her trust, claimed her heart and practiced being present with her as the groundwork for helping her to make her dream a reality. +Appreciating a woman is not about what you do, but about who you are. Deeply appreciating a woman requires that you become a trustable and strong man of integrity, because a woman feels most deeply appreciated when she can open her heart and reveal her deep beauty, pleasure, joy and love to you. You can become that man and appreciate your woman by earning her trust, claiming her heart, being fully present with her, and pushing past her defenses. +\------- + _Author's Note: I welcome all personal stories, comments and criticisms and I hope you find this information useful._" +287,How To Arouse A Cougar,Tigger_Lilly,How To,2021-06-13,2021-06-13,2022-01-04 08:29:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-arouse-a-cougar,Younger surprises older with sex skills she did not expect.,"['Arousal Advice', 'Cougar', 'Cougar Cub Erotica', 'How To Turn On Women', 'Older Woman Younger Man', 'Seduction Tips', 'Sexy Bath']",4.37,"[[[Bonus Turn On Tips : Try asking her, ""Can I get a lady's opinion on something?""

You shiver as my finger skims your back when I pull the hem of your blouse from the waist band of your black pencil skirt. +""If you keep that up, we won't get to the bath...."" you tease, opening your sea green eyes and looking at me, lips curling into a wickedly delicious grin. +""Come here, you.""

I stride into a wider stance for you to have easier access. +You turn around and slip out of your blouse revealing your summer sun kissed skin showing off a white lacy bra no Victoria's Secret Angel could fill better. I couldn't help but gasp. ""You are more beautiful every time."" +You purr, ""You are sweet as honey."" +I am mesmerized watching you turn away to slip off your skirt. A matching white lace thong meets my now hungrily scanning eyes. ""Could you hit the light,"" I croak from a dry throat as I light the candles around the tub. +My heart is doing nascar tire burns in my chest as my eyes zone in on that body in the dim candlelight. You are so damn hot, I feel like I am going to lose complete control. +""Climb in and relax, baby, I will go get the wine."" I growled in a low voice. +I reach out and you take my hand so I can help you step into the tub. I can barely let go of you. Biting my lip I pointedly allow my eyes to wander as slowly as possible up and down your body knowing that you can sense me admiring you. I can't take my eyes off your breasts. I swallow and bite my lip as I stop myself from reaching out to touch. +You love me watching you. I can tell. +My mouth waters, longing to wrap my lips around those nipples hardening in the cool air as you stand in the tub before me. Maybe it is my desire for you that your body is responding to. +When my eyes return to yours, you never break eye contact as you smile and slowly lower yourself into the bubbles below. +I can't help but notice your eyes linger on my crotch and I feel myself naked under your gaze as you lick your dry lips. +You watch me as my manhood twitches to life and I cannot believe it but you slowly lick your lips.

Quietly kneeling at the tub. I stroke your hair away from your damp forehead and lean in to kiss you. +""Hurry in,"" you whispered to me as you lift your face to meet my lips. +I slip out of my clothes and step into the tub behind you. Finally my legs curled themselves around you. Tipping your head back toward me slightly, you stretch your arms up and around my neck exposing those breathtaking breasts before my thirsty eyes. +Even though I am rock hard against the small of your back I hold back my passion and desire so you can fully get in to your turn on .

Just who are we you ask, we are the men who live lives of quiet desperation as normal married men yet yearning to be sub hubs. We want nothing more than to bow before our wives and beg to be their slaves yet we cannot for fear of losing their respect or even worse of losing them. One would think that a wife would be glad that her husband desires to serve her and please her in any way she wishes and yet there is a stigma attached to any man who does not behave in the strict parameters defined as an alpha male. +There is an intrinsic defect in our society, where the female of the species complains about the very flaws in males that they are attracted to e.g. a wife wants her husband to help with the housework and yet sees a man who does housework as weak and emasculated. I realize I'm painting our world with a broad brush but as I am generalizing, I don't mean to offend anyone who falls beyond these boundaries, I know there is a big difference between a husband who helps around the house, and a husband who is desirous of treating his wife as a queen. If a male helps with the laundry, he is helping but if he is hand washing his wife's panties he is serving. To show just how crazy this all is, take the fantasy of the husband pleasuring his wife orally as she relaxes with a glass of wine and a good book, there is a good chance that both he and she could be having this fantasy at the same time yet neither would tell the other of it. +I define myself as a man in a wife led vanilla marriage, that is, I defer any decisions in our life to my wife and yet she always asks my opinion, I think merely as a courtesy. To our friends and children we are a normal couple and in reality, I guess we are and yet I crave so much more. Alone I search the web looking for husbands abused and humiliated beyond belief and feel a pang of jealousy as these men enjoy the labors of honesty over priority. +So how do we men cope with a normal relationship and yet with desires of so much more? On a personal note, I have eased my so-called normal marriage into just enough of a wife led lifestyle that we both are still comfortable with it. My wife enjoys the power she has over me without knowing she could have so much more. As for me, I follow her lead then juxtapose that into my fantasy world. This tilting of the balance of power helps me to fuel my fantasy while still giving me some semblance of respect. This is the compromise I have worked out and as with all compromises both side lose something, I'm sure she wishes she had more of a man for a husband and I wish I were more of a doormat. +To be a sub is not a choice you make, it comes from inside you and it's just what you are. I wouldn't even want to try to get into how a person becomes someone who desires to be used and abused by the person he or she loves. Is it from our childhood or are we born with it, I don't know and I guess it doesn't really matter we are what we are. To live a lie such as I do doesn't mean I reject what I am it is just I'm trying to hide my flaws from the world, and my wife. If I am not a man who wishes to come out of the closet so to speak, that should be my decision to make. +The balance of reality over fantasy is what each closet sub must select. Would your fantasy world be better for you if it were real? That is a question only you can answer, in your mind this whimsy keeps you constantly hard and makes you cum like a race horse and yet would you really like to be on your knees cleaning the toilet with your toothbrush? As I'm prone with my face between my wife's legs worshiping her pussy with my tongue I'm pretending I'm cleaning her lover's issue from her well used cunt. This is extremely exciting to me and I in fact can cum while doing this but to actually put my face into some man's spluge, come on have you ever tasted that stuff. +So the decision is yours, do you want to be a man and admit to your wife your are a wimp or do you want to be a wimp like me and lie to your wife that you're a man. If you're like me there is a line drawn in the sand that you won't cross and that is what we call compromise. I realize it is a strange balancing act trying to blend two complete opposites and yet it's done all across the world every day. Now as far as fooling your wife into thinking you're a real man, come on there is no way, she knows you're a wimp and she's living as big a lie as you. Ah, but that's another story." +289,How to Be a Female Breast,Decayed Angel,How To,2006-11-06,2006-11-06,2022-01-04 08:30:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-a-female-breast,How can you be a female breast? It's an interesting question.,[''],2.75,"How can you be a female breast? It's an interesting question, one I admit I had never really thought about until recently. Sure, I've always admired them from my junior high school days as I began to pay attention to the more curved line of the female form, through my bolder peeks at cleavages on women of all ages, into my prurient studies in playboy, to more intimate tactile investigations (all this happened after the breasts and I were over 18, honestly) and afterwards. +Oddly, my tactile experiences have basically touched upon the extremes in size as I moved from basically slightly inclining mounds highlighted by wonderfully erect nipples, to soft, curving mountains peaked by seemingly smaller nipples. I figure the nipple size is all a matter of optical illusion, presumably they all were similar to each other in size. While this excursion into the extremes in breast size give me a pretty good idea what an average breast might look like (taking averages and all), I do lack the experience with an average size woman's breast. +Fortunately, breast size has never been an issue for me, I can appreciate the subtle change in slope while admiring the line of a dancer's form, while also turning my head at the fluid bounce of a larger breasted woman. I've never understood the reasoning some of my friends had regarding size, it always confused me why a guy would ignore a beautiful, friendly woman with small breasts and then chase after the meanest bitch with enormous breasts. +Of course all this doesn't really address the question at hand: ""How to be a female breast?"" As I mentioned above, this is a question I only recently have considered. The question first came to me as I read Phillip Roth's erotic tale The Breast, an enticing tale where a man suddenly discovers an increasing sensitivity in and around his cock. The increase in sensitivity obviously led to a heightened sexual experience for the man, leading him to crave more intimacy in bed and out. +Foreplay became more important to him and after sex, he was suddenly inclined to want to cuddle with his girlfriend longer. When spending time with her outside the bedroom he became more physically demonstrative and basically more attentive to the woman. +He noticed physical changes too. A discoloration appeared circling his cock and balls that not only slightly reddened, but was very sensitive. As an average man, he took all this in stride and increased his sexual activity with his girlfriend from maybe a couple times a week to four, five or six times during the week. He did visit a doctor but nothing much was found. +The doctor did want to complete some extended tests and hospitalized the man to conduct the tests. Surprisingly, within a couple of days, the man became a female breast. A transformation had been underway when he went into the hospital, but the overnight change in his condition shocked everyone. +At this time, I could wonder about how it happened, look into the varied theories the doctors at the hospital discussed, even do extensive research into the medical improbabilities, but that is truly beyond the scope of the question. We are, mind you, considering the question: ""How can you be a female breast?"" not ""How do you become a female breast?"" +The first thing you would have to consider is mobility. While this may not be a real issue for women with small breasts, it certainly becomes a concern for your normal six foot tall, two hundred pound breast. When considering the anatomy of this six foot breast and considering the problems of chafing and overall support probably the best means of support and mobility would be a large, sling like apparatus. This could be suspended from a framework above the breast. With wheels attached to this framework, there is some mobility. +Of course the breast would need to get nourishment and water. Intravenous feeding and hydration is a painful option, but perhaps if the nipple were partially submerged in a solution it might take in the food and water it needs to survive, much like the air it is breathing. Yes, yes I am cheating here, I am borrowing from the solutions Mr. Roth covered in his book, but it does seem plausible. +Communication might be an issue if the breast couldn't talk, but strangely it can. Yes, I understand no one has heard a breast talk, but have you really, honestly now, really listened to a breast. If it is real quiet and you listen hard enough, you just might hear it speak. You do have to listen hard and don't be discouraged if you don't hear what the normal size breast is saying. Actually it is very difficult to hear a six foot breast talk, so something much smaller it would be nearly impossible to hear. +A breast can and often does listen. In fact they hear very well. I think it has to do with all that flesh and the vibrations it can absorb and transfer. I mean just look how those things juggle as a woman walks, it must sound like drums in the jungle. +Boredom can be an issue with a six foot breast. Now with its keen sense of hearing an obvious diversion for the breast is to be read to. Unable to see to read, the breast does enjoy stories, long novels are favorites, but poetry and short stories are fine too. Of course, like many of us, a breast truly enjoys erotica. +When you think about it, what is this six foot breast built for. Well, considering it does not have the input of hormones for it to develop milk, the breasts next important function in life is not balance or fashion, it is sex. While a breast enjoys being read to, especially erotica, it lives for sex. +What kind of sex can a six foot breast have? Well pretty much everything a normal breast has. It loves manual stimulation of the areola and nipple and if someone kisses or licks it, it will moan in ecstasy. Of course gender can be an issue especially if you have a male female breast who craves sex with a woman. As long as a woman has no problems satisfying a male by kissing and manipulating a female breast then the breast can have a wonderful sexual experience. +Of course what the male female beast truly craves is to penetrate his female partner. ""How?"" you may ask. Well, that nipple does become erect and if a woman can handle it, the breast would love its nipple to slip into her pussy and fuck her. It arouses the breast immensely and can help satisfy the breast's female partner. +Fortunately, or unfortunately depending upon your outlook, the breast doesn't experience orgasm. This gives it the capacity for endless sexual arousal and stimulation, or at least until the breast collapses into its sling from exhaustion. The breast is always ready for sex and since after a while listening to someone read can drive it nuts, it actually craves sex non-stop. A breast's partner must realize this and be prepared for all the consequences. +Obviously there is a lot more to learn about how to be a female breast, but as time and relationships pass science and society will begin to define behaviors and practices in relating to these breasts. Relationships will vary as male female breasts are embraced by homosexual men and female female breast are touched by lesbians. And who is to say we may not begin to see six foot male breasts, whether male or female. +Yes it's a confusing world out there, but if we all learn to appreciate and embrace the breast into our society this would can be a better place. It will be a dream come true when six foot breasts of all sexual orientations and races can happily live in harmony with the men and women who love them." +290,How To Be A Good Editor,LadyCibelle,How To,2005-02-02,2005-02-02,2022-01-04 08:30:02,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-a-good-editor,Tips & tricks for dealing with a writer.,"['Editor', 'Good', 'Writer']",4.53,"fPlenty of people openly complained on the Public Portal about my first submission, ""How to Piss Off an Editor"", and in the same breath wrote to me privately; saying they wished they'd had the guts to say what I had and that I was right.

They are big boys and girls and they can hear what's what._ + **• A good editor doesn't just praise but also says why and where the praise is due;** + _It's too easy to give pats on the shoulder; we need to get more in depth in our analysis of the work submitted to us._ + **• A good editor critiques and is not afraid to say what's on his/her mind;** + _Constructive criticism is difficult, even for us, but it's also the thing the writers crave the most. Let's not be afraid to say what we don't like and why. No writer can hate you for being honest with them (at least, not if he/she is serious with his/her writing)._ + **• A good editor knows that some writers are like infants and need to be taught what's wrong and what's right;** + _It's better to give too much information than too little. Even if he, ultimately, has the last word with his work, you're still the one who may have a broader sense of what is right or wrong because you're standing back from it._ + **• A good editor needs to establish a relationship with his/her writer before he/she can do a good job;** + _In my opinion, compulsory if your goal is to improve the current, and future, projects of the writer._ + **• A good editor needs to see and understand where his writer is coming from if he wants to understand where the writer's characters are coming from;** + _Self explanatory in itself but too many editors forget that writers come from all walks of life and what they deem ""unrealistic"" might be this particular writer's reality._ + **• A good editor involves himself in the writer's writing process and puts his foot down when a character acts ""out of character"" inappropriately;** + _Don't be afraid to hash over ideas with your writer; in the end he can only gain from it._ + **• A good editor knows when to stroke his writer's ego and when to kick his butt;** + _Kicking butt and stroking egos must be imparted sparingly and with much care.

Nope, not even a titillated trollop. Sorry about that. This assault on good taste and English letters is concerned with the fine art of creating attention grabbing hooks in the opening lines of your next Pushcart Prize winning short story or Nobel Prize contending novel. +For starters, here's the biggest single rule those eager to become happy hookers should always keep in mind. There is NO single rule that can guarantee success. Not one. There are, however, some guidelines that might be of some help, maybe. Here are five. +1\. The mission of those first few words at the beginning of your story is to intrigue--not inform--your readers and keep them reading. +Don't fall into the trap of using that priceless piece of writing space to describe people, places or things that can be mentioned later. Consider the following opening line by Nobel Prize winner Gabriel Garcia Marquez. +""Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendía was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice."" One Hundred Years of Solitude +The reader doesn't know who the Colonel is, or any of the other W's (what, where, when, why). But ask yourself, would including any of that information have made the sentence stronger and the ""hook"" more compelling? +2\. Instead of falling back on description, try to open with action. That doesn't mean you need to begin with a car chase, shoot-out or near the climax (so to speak) of a sex scene. There is, of course, nothing wrong with any of those, especially here at Lit. Just remember that action doesn't have to mean frantic activity. Here are a couple examples: +""It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen."" 1984, by George Orwell +""They shoot the white girl first."" Paradise, by Toni Morrison +3\. High on the list of things to avoid describing is the weather. Granted, the opening to ""1984"" includes a brief mention of the climate. But even if you pull off an Orwellian caliber job, editors, agents, reviewers and other such literary flotsam and jetsam seem predisposed to not liking the practice. No doubt this goes back to the infamous opening line from the novel, Paul Clifford, by Edward George Bulwer-Lytton: +""It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents--except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness."" +4\. One of the better ways to intrigue and thereby ""hook"" readers is to begin with a question. It doesn't have to be explicit. In fact, implied questions often work best. For instance: +""Nobody was really surprised when it happened, not really, not on the subconscious level where savage things grow."" Carrie, by Stephen King +""There once was a boy named Eustace Clarence Scrubb and he almost deserved it."" Voyage of the Dawn Trader, by C S Lewis +5\. If you feel compelled to use a direct quote, try to make it short, as in, very. The problem with a quote is your reader has no idea who is speaking or the circumstances. Since that can't be established until the end of an opening quote, if it's a long one, there's a risk readers will stop reading to go back and re-read the quote. Here's one example of a great short-quote opening: +""Take my camel, dear,"" said Aunt Dot as she climbed down from the animal on her return from High Mass. The Towers of Trebizond, Rose Macaulay +That's all well and good, you say, but what about erotic stories? Glad you asked. +Writing, is writing, no matter the genre. To quote the great Dooley Wilson, ""The fundamental things apply."" That includes erotica. Still, when writing fiction intended for Literotica or lesser sites, there are a couple special items you might want to consider when crafting the opening. +note: The examples that follow are all taken from stories of mine currently posted at Literotica. I did this, in large part, as an act of outrageous hubris, but also to avoid the challenge of trying to pick a few prime examples from among the works of the other (good) writers here at Lit. +Stories in categories such as Incest, Group Sex, and Loving Wives seem to do best when they have a strong, active openings. There are many, award-winning exceptions to that rule-of-thumb and, as mentioned before, the opening does not have to be in a sex scene. For instance, the first example hints at what may be about to happen, while the second opens in the middle of all the action. +""Horny and half-naked, Randi Druitt stood in the open door and studied her kid brother. Some kid."" (Randy Comes Home, pt 1 - Incest) +""Donna Faircloth was getting gloriously fucked. Waves of ecstasy surged through her writhing body as the powerfully built man lying between her long, outstretched legs hammered his demanding cock in and out of her very willing cunt."" (Nurse Made -- Loving Wives) +In categories such as Novels/Novellas, Romance, and Non-Erotic, readers don't seem to have a problem with openings that are more involved and contain little or no sex. For instance: +""Sensual and seductive, she lay amid the rumpled sheets of the bed where we'd just made love—relaxed and at ease within the golden skin of her petite, perfect body. Not posing, not looking at the camera so much as through it, into the photographer, into me, waiting with an expression of amused tolerance for me to finish and rejoin her."" (A Special Photo - Romance) +""The ear-splitting explosion was followed by loud shouts. "" What the hell was that? Where'd it come from? Is everybody all right?"" In the opinion of Specialist Fourth Class Mark ""Bear"" Carson, this was not a good way to spend Thanksgiving."" (Alive and Going Home -- Non-Erotic) +And in conclusion my fellow writers, let me say that the one rule to always remember about writing fiction in general, and openings in particular, is there are NO unbreakable rules, EXCEPT, don't bore the reader--grab their interest from the beginning and never let go. The writer who can do that, is usually a happy hooker." +292,How to Be a Real Hot Wife,dclinic,How To,2018-08-31,2018-08-31,2022-01-04 08:30:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-a-real-hot-wife,Tips on how to become a happy married woman.,"['Great Sex', 'Hot Wife', 'Hotwife', 'How To', 'Wife']",4.09,"So, you want to be a hot wife, yes? Let me make it simple for you my dear future soulmate, a hot wife is exactly what the name suggests: She is a married woman (who aims to remain married) who also feels attractive and sexy. +Therefore, a hot wife is neither a carless woman who doesn't look after herself but wants to get free ticket to sleep with other men nor a sexy woman who is looking to divorce her husband at the first encounter with a rich, handsome man. +An actual, real, hot wife is a far cry from what men imagine them to be and the situations in which the popular Internet erotica place them. In particular, a hot wife is first and foremost a woman in charge of her sexuality. She doesn't need to be ""hooked up"" by her husband nor get into unsafe or embarrassing situations; she may not engage in sex at all and yet feel hot. In short, a hot wife is a happy married woman. +Now, how do you transition from being an ordinary wife to a hot wife? What is it that you must change, and how do you tell you have become one? As you might have guessed, you don't turn into a hot wife by achieving a set number of goals but by prioritising two key aspects of your life: your body (and how good you feel in it) and your sexual pleasure. +Let us dive straight into the ""hot"" aspect. A regular wife assumes that because she's already won a husband, she doesn't need to look after herself. Many insecure husbands even promote this behaviour by letting their wives put on weight to the point of threatening their health. A hot wife always takes measures to feel good in her skin and to be aggregable to herself in the mirror. She doesn't mind if her looks are decent or indecent; if she is too old or too young to wear a given outfit. A hot wife does not hide her legs because she is ashamed of cellulitis. She doesn't hide her boobs because they are too small or too large. She celebrates her body and works hard to improve it within the boundaries of her age and genes. A hot wife focuses on what is under her control; the hours she spends in the gym and her attention to detail to her dressing, hair and makeup. A hot wife's looks are always in tune with her hotness potential. +As you improve your looks, you don't ask for feedback. Never ask to your husband or friends whether you are slimmer or prettier than ""before"". Asking is a sign of insecurity. You are your own best judge. Compliments will always arrive for free; but be patient if you are starting your journey from a low point. +The last point about hot aspect is that you should feel hot at all times; when you go to the supermarket, when you go to work, when you walk the dog. Always mind your underwear as well because you never know when or where you may need to undress. +Now that we are done with ""hot"", let us look into the wife side of hot wife. As I said before, the whole point of a hot wife is that she is a wife and remains one, so the transformation away from ""ordinary wife"" should not be toward ""hot divorcee"". +There are essentially two situations; either your husband has prompted you to consider the hot wife ""life style"" (I hate that word) or you have bought into it yourself, but your husband hasn't got a clue as to what you are up to. Let me clarify that the state of being a hot wife is not a contract with rules about what is tolerable or not to your husband since this defies the goal of being in charge and in control of your sexuality; to spell it in clear English: when, where, with whom, and how often you want to fuck is under your control only. A hot wife is not a swinger nor in an ""open relationship"". She is just in control of something she already owns by nature and has taken away from her for centuries and in many (but not all) cultures by social convention: her vagina. +Now, getting back to your husband, it is not like you will arrive one evening and confess to him that you've decided to turn into a hot wife. First, if you've been investing in your body and image, things would have changed already; it is likely that your husband would have called out the attention you have been receiving from other men and his feelings about it. If he is happy and secure next to you and takes the attention you get as a compliment to him as well, then there is little further work to do. +What you have to find out is the extent to which your husband will facilitate your sexual freedom so that you can enjoy yourself more often and in a safer manner. Some husbands will help you dress and select a killing set of lingerie but that's about it. Some others, instead, will always come to pick you up after one of those ""one too many drinks"" night outs, don't ask you too many questions, and even fuck you again. +For most hot wives, though, there are no ""rules"", ""agreements"", with their husbands. You husband will tell (unless he is blind) that you are becoming hotter every day and that it would be surprising if you hadn't been fucked a few times already. What can't possible happen is that you act in a sloppy manner. And speaking of rules again, even though you may not have an agreement with your husband, there are rules for yourself, my dear. These can be summarised in two: discretion and safety. Whatever you do, never ever risk your reputation nor your safety. Flirt, tease, fantasise if you must but a hot wife will never let gossip or disease (more on condoms in a few moments) enter her home. And here lies the difference between a slut (and future divorcee) and a hot wife. A hot wife is not stupid. +Having said the above, a hot wife life style is not about adultery and cheating. Most regular wives who cheat aren't hot (this is why they don't get attention from their husbands in the first place), get picked by average- looking men and are carless both about discretion and safety. Hot wives don't do slutty things like agreeing to meet men in hotels or worst, at home. Planning encounters with men is the domain of whores. We don't do that. There is no contradiction here. You become a hot wife precisely because, unlike a boring wife, you want to always feel beautiful and ready to fuck in any place and at any time. This is why, you carry always a pair of condoms in your purse. Did I say condoms in the last sentence? Yes, and I've been asked a couple of odd questions about them before: ""Isn't it embarrassing to buy them and how do you hide them?"". +The answer to these two questions is that safety is never embarrassing and hiding what gives you safety detracts from it. In my case, my husband buys ""my"" condoms and I take new ones every three days or so and discard the old ones since the heat and movement of the purse make them more prone to tear. My husband is happy that he doesn't need to carry them with him and that we can fuck at any time in any place which is what being a hot wife is all about; remember? +The ""ready to fuck"" feeling is empowering and it also adds spiciness to one's marriage. As I said before, I don't let condoms get ruined in my purse so I get new ones frequently but I make sure I always dispose of them outside home and place the new ones in my purse in front of my husband before going out. This leaves an air of mystery as to the outcome of the old ones. Have I just thrown them in the bin? Have I made balloons for a hen party? Or were they full of cum? +A good friend of mine was questioned by her husband as to whether she needed to get new condoms all the time. Her answer was ""If I were to be using them to fuck, would you have wanted me to fuck without them?"". Not another word. +One final comment now that the safety topic is settled is about sex-wise targets and goals. I find ""keeping score"" a very male-orientated attitude to sex. What do I mean by targets and goals? Something along the lines of ""fuck 100 men before you die"" or tick boxes such as ""experience a three some"", ""fuck someone younger than me"", etc. The reason I oppose this mentality is that I see it as a form of premeditation and not the result of spontaneous genuine sex drive. For me, my goal is just one: to fuck whenever I am wet provided that the setting is discrete and safe. In most cases, my husband is always within reach when these conditions are met. And yes, you still need discretion when fucking your own husband in a plane's restroom. +As I have mentioned early on, this life style is not about adultery; it is just about feeling great in your body and empowered in your mind. The experience of most of my friends that I count in the ""hot wife club"" is the same as mine; we have the power to seduce any men and fuck them like wild animals but we exert such a power on our very husbands... most of the time." +293,How to be a Slut for Your Guy,BatsandGlamour,How To,2008-10-20,2008-10-20,2022-01-04 08:30:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-a-slut-for-your-guy,Ignore at your own peril: get your man hot for you!,"['Relationship Advice', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",4.23,"There is nothing in the world as intoxicating, as powerfully motivating as new romance. It is the light and heat of the sun; it is air; it is everything...and more. No matter your physical age, new love makes you feel as fresh, optimistic and giddy as the proverbial kid in the candy store. Even better. It improves and enhances every aspect of your life. Makes you wonder what all the fuss was about with work, friends; that car problem. +None of it matters. It is your time—your time in the sun, your time to shine and be shined on. Everything is fun again, everything is bright and new. The future holds nothing but promise and euphoria. You'd fight for it; you'd die for it—for him or her. You think I'm exaggerating? I'm not. +And the sex that is at the core of new romance is like a gift from above. The greatest gift. The kissing goes on for hours. Her smell alone makes you hard. Her hair, her skin, her eyes. Every word that comes out of her mouth is a revelation to you. When you make love, it's as though making love was invented for you two alone. Sometimes it's long, languishing sex, side by side as you look into each other's eyes and you slide in and out, seeming to cum for hours or days. And even when you're both spent, lying next to each other, the glowing embers warm you both. +Other times it's hard and fast. Cock sucking, pussy licking, hair pulling, ass slapping, tit grabbing, hard pounding ""who's your daddy?"" sex that leaves you both in a sweaty heap and yet, like Chinese food, ready for more just moments later. Sound familiar? I hope so. +And yet, for most people, over time the heat simmers to a flicker of its former self. The job, the kids, the house and the millions other things that comprise life can turn that inferno of lust, passion and desire into the warm glow of complacency and comfort. The long nights and cool mornings filled with marathon sex become 5 minutes of virtually a peck on the cheek and 3.5 minutes of in and out with barely a sleepy good night afterwards. Once a week—maybe. +Unless you're freaks like us. +Then something is different in your wiring. That switch that was supposed to be shut off—let's call it a dimmer that was supposed to descend over time—never did. You go through your teens, 20s, 30s, 40s and beyond with the same needs, the same passion and desires. You go to sleep with sex on your mind and wake up hard or wet (Guys, if YOU wake up both hard and wet, you may need to see a urologist). You need that connection as much as you ever did and if it's strong enough and neglected for long, you'll get it wherever you can, at home or not. And if it's the right person, you're going to—believe me—fall in love so strongly that nothing will stop the inevitable from happening. Which is OK...sometimes. +Thank you for giving me the time to get to my point. +As a man, I write from a man's point of view but I feel that the thinking is universal...interchangeable. If you are, as I said, a freak like me; like many of us, your insatiable desire to find that compatibility with someone is overpowering. If you've had it at one point with your lover (wife, girlfriend; whatever), there's at least a good chance you can get it back. If you've never had it but both want it, there's also a good chance if you follow the advice I'm about to give. +If one of you is a sexual freak and the other just never was, is not and never will be, then you're driving down a long road to nowhere. You're either going to go elsewhere for what you must have or you're going to learn to live without it. A or B. There is no C. +Side note—great passion and sex is action, not talk (don't get we wrong here, talking during sex is HOT. I've said and heard some very memorable things during the heat of sex. So ""Give it to me...give it to me...harder...faster...fuck me like that...just like that..."" is not what I'm referring to). What I mean is, your lover's promise of great sex to come is about as useful as their boastful stories of the great sex they've had with others in their younger days or previous relationships. It's a burger with no meat; an ice cream cone without the ice cream. It does nothing but make you hungrier and more frustrated. Talk or do—make your choice. +So how can you do it? How can you reignite the passion you used to see in your lover's eyes. Get that feeling back; brings things to next level...a level you may never have reached before, or have so easily with another? +Believe me, it's not about looks, ""losing those extra 10 or 20 pounds,"" or embarking on a total makeover plan. Many of us are not hung up on ""perfect,"" runway-model-thin girls anyway. I know I'm not. Nor do women all want or need washboard-ab-sporting hunks. +Again, a side note here for guys. You may look as strong as an ox, but those 10 or 20 or 50 extra pounds that you may be lugging around are much more than a cosmetic issue. The fat that is pushing your belly out is also surrounding your organs, clogging your arteries and making your heart work harder. We're talking about blood flow here and guess where it also flows or does not flow to? Yep. It's true, getting and staying in shape may be hard, but it also makes you hard and keeps your hard. Isn't that motivation enough? +So how can I say this gently, girls? Be a slut. If there's one point you take away from this whole story, it's that guys like to fuck girls who act like they loved to be fucked. It is truly that simple. +OK...OK, I know all the connotations. I'm not talking about fucking the mailman when he comes to the door (I mean, hey, I'm not judging; mailmen need love, too). I'm not talking about debasing yourself, or dressing or acting like a low life out in public. But there is nothing hotter, I mean NOTHING HOTTER, than a professional in the workplace who's a sexual monster in the bedroom. When the dress comes off, the hair goes down and the lights dim...God (and, frankly, I) only knows what you're going to do to each other under the right circumstances. It can be life altering. +But, you may ask, how can I make such a drastic change and have my lover take me seriously? What are you literally asking me to do? What are the actual steps I should take? What does the Electoral College really mean? +Let me give it to you straight (calm down, now). You are going to have to act a role here. Haven't you always wanted to be an actress? Here's you chance. +Part one is makeup. You know how your mother always told you not to overdo the eye shadow, mascara, lipstick and makeup? Well, overdo the eye shadow, mascara, lipstick and makeup. Make yourself look dramatic. Highlight those bright eyes, those soft lips, those rosy cheeks. If you take a look at your average supermodel without makeup, she looks like any other woman with nice features. But with the right makeup, she's a knockout. You can do the same thing. +Part two is wardrobe. Everyone has their preferences, but in general, I would say highlight the positive. Large breasted (God bless you)? Wear something that pushes them up and together, preferably a lace teddy. Preferably with a photo for me. Long legged? Thigh highs with a lace top are very attractive, especially with ""fuck me"" pumps. Long hair? Let it down. Short hair? Hmmm...let it grow long. Long, dark hair and big breasts? Let's talk. Seriously, there is no shortage of websites that sell the right clothing to get him salivating. +Part three is scent. Get a good one—a new one. There is something about a new scent that drives us crazy. Nothing musty or too strong. Just light and sweet. And if I can just add an addendum to part three it is grooming. There is nothing sweeter than a nice shaved pussy. Nothing tastier or more inviting. A shaved pussy just screams ""taste me, eat me, come on in!"" +Now, play your role and like any good actress, don't break character in the middle of the scene. +Look, you've been playing the same role for so long that your guy knows the lines by rote. How have them been working for you? Perhaps now is the time to change them completely. +Imagine: ""Get over here, Peter. Get on your hands and knees for me. Lick you way up those calves. Do you smell me? Can you smell my pussy? Do you want...do you want to taste it? Taste it. See how soft it is. Make me crazy, Peter, make me cum. Lick me up and down until I moan for you and rub my soft tits all over your cock..."" +Now it's true, you may have to call 911, but isn't it worth it? You must take this part very seriously and not fall back into the familiar. You are not the same person he is used to coming home to. Just do something different. Buy a new vibrator and make him watch you make yourself cum with it. Then, looking him in the eyes, suck your own juices off of it. Present yourself in different ways to him. Get on all fours on the bed and stick your ass in his face (you have some courage? Lubricate and stick your finger in and out your ass while you look at him and dreamily close your eyes) +Buy a porno (again, no shortage of websites) or go to the internet and make him watch with you. There is little if anything in our over technical world more arousing than watching two people fuck and suck. I never get tired of it. It's basic; it's Darwinian—it works. Once he's good and hard (about 10.5 seconds, I would say), release your prize and surprise him with your oral skills. +Is your office open on the weekends? Most are not. Bring him with you to ""pick something up."" Once your there, get on your knees and suck his cock. Bend over your desk, turn your head and look him in the eyes and say ""give it to me from behind, baby."" Different positions are always a great change. +This just isn't you? Make it you. Make a change. And once you do, you don't have to explain yourself and dissect the whole episode. Let him think you're a different person now. You are. You should be. +Now look, there are probably hundreds of scenarios I can think of and write. Fantasies, roll playing, bondage, tender love—but enough about what I've done. What I'm trying to say to you—freaks like me or not—is that if you want to keep your sex life alive and well for now and forever, you're going to have to change the rules now and then. +The flip side of the equation is that if your husband is the freak and you are not, you'd better, how can I say this...get in touch with your freaky side? If you don't, nothing may change at all. He may be totally content with his ball games or fishing; he may spend his time thinking about how to make more money or impress his colleagues; he may happily and mindlessly cut the lawn and work in the woodshop. +Men, the same goes for you. She may be content to work and take care of the kids. Go shopping, use the treadmill, play on the internet. She may not. She may be looking for that person who makes her feel like she used to, like she needs to, like she's always wanted to and she deserves that person. +You may want to deny the possibility that the one you love may run into someone who is so special and rocks their world to such a degree that all those things seem like distant memories to them. And one of those distant memories may be you. Maybe. How do I know? Well, you can read my stories, ""Wake up call"" or ""My obsession."" There are people out there who will ring your bell but hard. Who just do it for you. So trust me. I do know." +294,How To Be A Writer...,Tara Cox,How To,2012-04-24,2012-04-24,2022-01-04 08:30:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-a-writer,It may not be what you think though.,"['Author', 'Write', 'Writer']",4.67,"The title of this article is a bit deceptive. Writing is an art form, a gift, that you either are born with or not. Of course, even if you are, you must still polish that gift. Learn your craft. And practice it. +Practicing the craft of writing is what this article is really all about. Making time for writing in a world where people are constantly rushing...towards their deaths. Where there simply are not enough hours in day...days in the week. It is task that I have struggled with for thirty plus years. +I have wanted to be a writer for as long as I can remember. The one time I got into serious trouble at school was because I was writing a fairy tale for my baby cousin...in math class. In high school, I took Creative Writing class...twice. And I even placed in a regional poetry contest. But then life...two marriages and six children happened. And writing got put on hold. But writing is something that kept raising its head and just would not die. +Then in fall of 2011, I had to take my young daughter out of school for health reasons. I became a full-time homeschool mom and carer for a special needs child. It is exhausting work in itself. But I did not want to give up work (and independence) completely. So I decided that with the advent of e-readers and the explosion in self-publishing that I would give this writing dream a real go. +This article shares with you some habits that I have learned in the past six months, work habits that can take your writing from an occasional hobby to a career. +1) Treat it like a job. +I am lucky, besides caring and educating my daughter, writing is my job. But for many of you, this simply is not possible in the short term. See it instead as a part-time job. But it is important that you still see it as a JOB. +Why you ask? Because you do not blow off your jobs. Jobs, even part-time ones, are not something that you do when you feel like it...and don't do when you don't. A job is something that you show up to...because you made a commitment. +Of course this is not to say that sometimes you do not miss work. We all have sick days. We may even take 'mental health days.' But with a job, you think carefully about calling in. It is not something you do lightly. +So begin right now. Make that commitment. Become a writer. +2) Make a schedule. +Most jobs have scheduled hours, even part time ones. You know in advance how many hours you are working and when. Of course, as with most part-time jobs, you have some control of this. You decide when you are available. +So sit down with your day planner or whatever you use (even if that is just kept in your head) and decide what your available working hours are for your new job. +Be realistic though. Do not try to cram too many hours of writing into an already full schedule. Because if you do, then you will end up feeling stressed and not keep your commitment...basically you'll quit your new job without giving it a real chance. +3) Consider how you work best. +Writing is perhaps one of the hardest jobs there are. There is very little more frightening than to stare at a bright white, blank screen. You know you are supposed to fill it with your brilliance but staring at that emptiness is daunting. +For me, I am a morning person. I am lucky too that most mornings my daughter likes to sleep in. So I set my alarm clock and get up two to three hours before she does. Which leads me into my next point... +4) Consider your work environment. +I need quiet...and clean/organization. With my daughter in bed, it is easy to get that first one. But after a long day of writing and homeschooling, I often lack the energy to clean up the house before I fall into bed at night. So I moved my office/work into the spare bedroom...that rarely gets used and is never messy. What do you need to work your best? Where? +5) Invest in your tools. +What tools could you possibly need to be a writer? Well, the obvious one is your computer and the software that allows you to process your words into sentences and stories. Or perhaps you may be the pen and paper type. But increasingly there are tools that allow writers to take their craft on the road. Tablets and smart phones can add hours to your writing time if you know how to use them. +Which is to say...that your tools can also be your knowledge/continuing education. Taking classes in writing, graphic design, computer technology and even time management/organization can help you to maximize your potential in this part-time job. +I have an odd tool as well...a cup of hot, black coffee with extra sugar. It gets my muse up and going each morning. She sometimes requires three, four or even more of them. Other writers speak adoringly of chocolate. What might you do to feed your muse? +But the most important thing of all is to just do it. Take that plunge, that leap of faith and decide that you are a writer. Use the suggestions here as a starting point. Then develop your own (and please share them with me...I am always interested in learning new ideas). But as the saying goes..." +295,How to Be Alone...

I always have been...and always will be. I am a throwback to another time. And to evolved for this one. I am a romantic. A true romantic. Whether it be the trashy romance novels that I have been reading since I was twelve and writing for almost as long. Or the idealistic way that I see the world and the people in it. I love being different. I love being me. But it is lonely. +When you are those things, it is hard to find someone like you. Someone to share this journey with. A partner, a true partner. Oh, there are always people about. Friends and lovers who are attracted to you. To what you can do for them. For what you can and do give them. There are more of them than you can ever feed, love and nurture. +Because the sad truth is that there are too few givers in this world and way too many takers. I am forty-nine...and five weeks. And I have always been alone. Even when I was in relationships. Even when I was married. I was alone in all the ways that matter most. +As a child, my sperm donor left me when I was two and a half. I was raised by my great-grandmother in a neighborhood with only a handful of children. My only friends were women ten times older than I was who taught me to sew, cook and crochet before I could read. They told me stories of the Great Depression and World War II. Don't feel sorry for me. Those women taught me more, were better friends than most I have had in my life. They made me who I am today...and I am thankful for that. +When I went to school, I was alone. Oh, I had a friend...or two. But I was not in the popular crowd. I had trouble learning to read so I was called dumb. My family did not have money so my hand me down clothes were made fun of. I escaped into my mind. My fantasies. I suppose you could say I told lies, but they are not lies when you believe them more than the reality about you. Don't feel sorry for me. Those experiences taught me to fantasize. That as long as you have your mind, you can go anywhere, be anything. +When I grew up and got married, I thought everything would be all right. I had someone that was all mine. A best friend. Someone I could count on. Except it was more about him counting on me. Me being what he needed when he needed it. When the chips were down, I was always alone. I was the one facing the hard choices...alone. Don't feel sorry for me. I made those decisions. I took the consequences. And I survived. That is what matters. +When I had children, I thought...at last, someone that will love me forever. And I poured my heart and soul into them all. I loved them. I taught them. I mentored them. And then I let them go. To be the people that they were meant to be. Don't feel sorry for me. That is how it is supposed to be. Children grown into adults and have their own lives. And if you have done your job well, they fly back home every now and again. Just often enough to remind you that it was all worth it. +These days I have my friends. People around me that care for me and I care for them. When I need someone to talk to, they listen. If I truly need something, they give it if they can. They are wonderful people. But they cannot be there all the time. The truth is that unless you are a twin...all of us enter this world alone. And even if we died in the arms of the person we love the most, we all leave it alone. +One of my favorite authors is Dr. Seuss. The man offers some of the best advice about how to live your life that you could ever have. Forget self-help books. Forget philosophy. Forget gods and religion. Go with Seuss.

These words are immortal: +All Alone! +Whether you like it or not, +Alone will be something +you'll be quite a lot. +It is the one thing that most of us spend a lifetime trying to avoid. As babies, we wake up alone and cry to get someone to come and just pick us up. And if no one comes? The sad thing is that we learn not to us...and it fucks us up for the rest of our lives. As teens, we do almost anything we can to be 'popular.' Drink, smoke, do drugs. We discover the one that we will continue to manipulate well into adulthood...sex. If we have sex, then we are not alone. Right? We marry. We have children. We make friends. Hell, we work crappy jobs. Just so that we won't have to be alone. +Except alone is not that bad a place. Alone is quiet. Alone is peaceful. Alone is freedom. To do and be what you want. Alone is serenity. Alone means just for me. +But getting to that place is not easy. I know that. I spent forty-nine years trying all those things that I mentioned. Two marriages. Six children. A dom. A daddy. A master. Friends. And way too many lovers to mention. I tried them all to avoid the one thing I have come to love and embrace the most. Just being alone. +So what have I learned? How did I get to this place? What makes it so wonderful? +1) Spend time looking in the mirror. Yeah, for some of us that means actually looking in those glass things. But that is only a first step. The more important mirror is eyes...the windows to our souls. Look into your own. See yourself for who you really are. The good. The Bad. The Ugly. The Special. The precious being unlike any other. Yeah, you have made mistakes. Welcome to the human race. Embrace them, those mistakes, those ugly parts of you. Know that they are there and probably won't ever go away. Then choice to focus on the good parts. Choice to see the amazing things you do get right. Learning to love yourself, it is the greatest love of all. +2) Find good people. They are out there. People like you. Basically good but horribly flawed. Let them in. accept them as you accept yourself...for who they are. Not who you want them to be. Not who you think they should be. Don't try to change them. Just be there for them when they fuck up...and let them in when you do. +3) The most important words you will ever learn are...I am sorry. Because without those three little words then those other (I love you) will never mean anything. Without admitting when we are wrong, first to ourselves and then to the ones that we have hurt...we are toxic to them and us. +4) Yes is more powerful than no. From the moment we start to crawl...and perhaps even sooner if we were unlucky enough to have those type of parents that thought they would teach us life's important lessons by not coming when we cried...the word we learn almost as soon as Mama or Dada is NO. We hear it hundreds of times a day. And it eats at our souls. It gnaws away the happiness that we were born with. Oh, don't get me wrong there will always be no's in this world. There has to be. No, don't touch that fire. No, don't bite your friend. No, don't give up your dreams. But the yeses in this world should always outweigh the no's. +5) Do what you want/love. Never let your dreams die. Because if you do, then you have died already. If you dream of writing that story, that poem, that play/movie/TV show that will be read or watched hundreds of years from now like Shakespeare, Austin, Hitchcock or (insert name), get to writing. Even if you don't make money at it. Even if you have to publish your crap for free on places like...Lit (love you Laurel and Manu for giving us this place). OK, so some dreams are harder than others. If you are my age and always wanted to be an astronaut or play major league baseball, we can agree those dreams are not physically possible. But you can still have those same feelings...join an astronomy club...hell, save up your money for those silly trips to 'inner space.' Coach a little league team...who knows maybe you will make that dream come true for some little kid. Just get your ass up and do something. Anything that you love. +6) Give. Give love. Give support. Give you. Until it hurts. Then keep giving. Because here is another secret...the more you give, the more of you there will be. +And when you have those special quiet moments ALONE you will discover that you have found what you sought all along...HAPPINESS." +296,How To Be At The Right Place,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-19,2008-05-19,2022-01-04 08:30:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-at-the-right-place,Voyeur's guide to appreciating exhibitionists.,"['Accidental Nudity', 'Bikini', 'Exhibitionism', 'Exhibitionist', 'Oops', 'Paparazzi', 'Thong', 'Upskirt And Downblouse', 'Voyeur', 'Voyeurism']",2.51,"_(Editor's Note: this is an article about appreciating willing exhibitionists.

Soon the heat of the summer will inspire more revealing clothes and bikinis and thongs are just a heat wave away. It's good to see the female form again after such a long wintry hibernation. I love seeing the forbidden flash of flesh and peek-a-boo peeks of feminine body parts, especially those that I wasn't supposed to see. Oops! +The problem with being a voyeur is we are seldom at the right place at the right time to see the upskirts, downblouses and/or wardrobe malfunctions. It takes surprising situations of serendipity to be at the right place at the right time to see the right things that we all hope to see. How many times have you seen a photo or a video and said I wish I had been there to see that? Ah, so many women and so little time. Undeniably, as frustrated voyeurs, we miss more voyeuristic opportunities than we see. +Do you remember all those Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and Tara Reed photos of them not wearing panties? How about those sex tapes that they all denied making but somehow surfaced and made the Internet? It makes you wonder how the Paparazzi happened to be at the right place at the right time so often, but in actuality they're not. +There are literally thousands of Paparazzi reporters who stalk celebrities while patiently waiting outside of restaurants, homes, nightclubs, and hotels for hours and days to hopefully get the money shot. How boring it is to sit in a cold car night after night while waiting for a celebrity to do something naughty. It's not as glamorous a job as it's cracked up to be. +And let's face it there are only so many dressing room security camera attendant jobs to go around. Believe me; I tried snagging one of those jobs. Besides, the voyeuristic benefits of the job far out weigh the hourly wage of that position. By the way, my sexual discrimination lawsuit is still pending against the hospital for not hiring me as a technician in their mammography department. +Fortunately, for voyeurs everywhere, with the advent of the Internet and faster video cards to take advantage of faster computers, we now have graphically explicit voyeuristic videos. From the time of the first silent black and white movies to the XXX porn movies in sleazy theatres to high definition instant videos on your home computer, we definitely are a spoiled bunch of perverts because after a while even videos aren't enough and always our sexually appetites want more. +Instead of watching the accidental exposure second hand on video, if only there was a way we could be there to actually see it and experience it with our own eyes as it happened, that would be special. If only we could fly through space and time to always be there at that very moment when a panty or bra or nipple or pussy is exposed. If only we could be the proverbial fly on the wall to see the voyeuristic opportunities as they unfold and while they happen. Alas, if only... +Well, now there is a way where we can experience it all as it happens. Unbelievably as it sounds fellow voyeurs, now there is a way we can innocently enjoy our voyeuristic preoccupations without arousing the suspicions of women and without women thinking us perverted. Oh, baby! Life is good. Finally, there is a win/win situation for us to view our own voyeur video in the privacy of our bathroom, I mean, home. +Just as there is accident reconstruction when someone is in a fatal automobile accident and crime scene reconstruction when there is a murder, now there is video voyeur reconstruction. I have assembled a highly skilled team of professionals to realistically reconstruct upskirts, downblouses, wardrobe malfunctions and more to view with our own eyes as they unfold and as they happen. Moreover, as a public voyeur unselfish service, I'm sharing complete, detailed instructions as to how you, too, can have your own video voyeur reconstruction team or VVRT for short. +This is what you need to begin furthering your voyeuristic passion while helping women kind the world over protect themselves from being video voyeured. (It's crazy, I know, but they fall for it every time. Thank God women are so easy, kind of, not really, not at all.) +First, neatly make up two signs using a big, bold, black magic marker with the letters, 'VVRT' and the words in smaller printing 'video voyeur reconstruction team' in a circle that surrounds the letters VVRT. I use colored construction paper with heavy black magic marker, the one the writes in heavy thick black indelible ink. Now, tape that to your car doors, both doors. +Then, so as not to wash away in the rain, I cover the construction paper signs with Seran wrap and duct tape the corners so that it doesn't blow off the car as I'm quickly driving from video voyeur reconstruction scene to video voyeur reconstruction scene. It looks professional, kind of in a grammar kid art school sort of way, much (almost) like those official signs on the car doors of network news vehicles. +For those of you who have a graphic arts background you can make a more professional appearing sign with your computer. Matter of fact, I even took my old Direct TV dish antennae and glued it to the roof of my car. Now, my 1972 Ford Pinto station wagon looks like a real news van, kind of. +Now, if you want to record this to playback later, you need a video camera. Of course, you could approach your video voyeur victim without a video camera but she wouldn't take you seriously, would think you creepy, and it would no longer be called a video voyeur reconstruction team but just voyeur reconstruction team. So, a video camera is really critically crucial to have, necessary actually, to accomplish your mission, which is to video voyeur women in all manner of undress. +Next you need a tape recorder with a microphone. To be honest, after springing for the construction paper, magic marker, and video camera, I needed to conserve on the expense of a tape recorder so I borrowed my niece's Fisher Price tape recorder. It looks a bit eccentric, foolish actually, with the colorful plastics that they use and the red microphone, but the thing really records and it has a strap so that you can wear it over your shoulder. +Lastly, it really helps if you have identification to show exposed women that you are on official VVRT business. Do you remember when the Three Stoogies pretended to be news people and they borrowed the faucet handles from the men's room that read 'Press', well that was funny, it was tacky. Since this is 2008, most women aren't that gullible unfortunately, therefore we need to look more professional to not only be taken seriously but also to gain the trust of our victims, I mean, women to be interviewed. +I suggest you take a piece of your heavyweight construction paper and copy the logo that appears on your car doors, only make them smaller. Duct tape one to your baseball cap. It doesn't matter if you have a dreaded New York Yankees baseball cap or a beloved Boston Red Sox baseball cap, either will work. Just cover whichever logo with your homemade VVRT patch. Now, make a second VVRT patch to duct tape to your shirt or jacket taking care not to cover any of your VVRT logo with duct tape. +There, you look the part. Now, you look like an official VVRT reporter. I wear my blue blazer, the one with the gold buttons whenever I go out on a video voyeur reconstruction. My VVRT patch looks official on that jacket. +Let's do a recap and list what you need. +1\. You need a couple sheets of heavyweight construction paper, any color will do. Although to be immediately recognized as video voyeur reconstruction team member we should decide on a universal color. How about red? +2\. You need a black magic market the kind that writes really thick. +3\. Seran wrap +4\. Duct tape +5\. A video camera +6\. A tape recorder +7\. An old, discarded Direct TV dish antennae +Now, you are ready to interview women who have had an accident of exhibitionism that you have missed. Once we get more voyeurs to start more video voyeur reconstruction teams we'll have a movement across the country and all over the world. Soon much like the Ghostbuster white ambulance station wagon everyone will recognize our vehicles and women will be calling to ask us to interview them and to reconstruct and videotape their voyeuristic faux pas. Wow! +I've already been on a few scenes with my Video Voyeur Reconstruction Team. One was at the mall. We interviewed a woman who had been voyeured as she was walking up the escalator while wearing a short dress. It's shocking the lengths that some perverts will go just to see some beautiful woman's panties. +To reconstruct the voyeur crime scene, we asked her to stand on the escalator and to lean just a little bit forward while my cameraman sat behind her on the steps videotaping her from the angle that the pervert used to record her panties with his cell phone. Once, she saw our VVRT logo she was happy to cooperate with the knowledge that maybe by showing our video of her panties on the Internet that it may help another beautiful woman from having herself voyeured and her panties videotaped. Ah, life is good. +I gotta go. I just received a call that a secretary was voyeured when her boss looked down her top as she was talking on the telephone and she wants us to recreate that special moment, I mean that voyeur crime scene and preserve it on video. I think she's planning a sexual harassment law suit. +Hey, admittedly it's a nasty business but someone has to do it." +297,How To Be Happy Now,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-21,2008-05-21,2022-01-04 08:30:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-happy-now,Freddie's part III in his self-help how-to series.,"['Anti-Depressants', 'Fulfillment', 'Happiness', 'Self Help']",3.62,"""Dee do do do do do do doe do dee da...Here is a little song I wrote. You might want to sing it note for note. Don't worry, be happy. In every life we have some trouble. When you worry you make it double. Don't worry, be happy."" +Oh, sorry, I didn't realize you were all there reading over my shoulder. I was just singing Bobby McFerrin's song, Don't Worry, Be Happy. +So, you want to be happy? Well, you've come to the right place. Welcome to my story, How To Be Happy Now. +How happy do you want to be? C'mon, it's just the two of us. Whisper it in my ear; only don't stick your tongue in my ear again this time. That was gross. +Really? You want to be that happy? Wow, that's really happy. You're pretty giddy now. I can't imagine you being any happier. Any happier and you'd be comedic, locked you away in a rubber room happy while wearing a straightjacket and laughing like a hyena happy. +Yet, it doesn't matter. If that is what you really want, then I can give you happiness because I have the magic formula to achieving real happiness in your life. +How to lose weight fast? How to become rich quick? How to be happy now? I've pretty much cornered most of the self-help books and programs on the market haven't I with this story? Now, seriously, what about my name Bostonfictionwriter did you not understand? I write fiction about Boston. Did you seriously believe that I could help you lose weight fast, become rich quick, and be happy now? +Wait; don't leave just yet because, actually, I think that I can help you to be happy now, only maybe not right now, but definitely, later after you've read this story, given me a 5 vote, and allowed it to percolate in your brain for a while. Let's start with a bit of commonsense first. You need to ask yourself several questions. +1\. Why now? Why do you want to be happy now? What has happened in your life that you suddenly feel the need for happiness now? +2\. Why aren't you happy now? Were you happy before? When were you happy? Were you ever happy? Can you remember a time when you were happy? Hold that thought. Don't let go of that thought. Think of nothing else but the last time you felt real happiness. Allow that thought to overwhelm you. Relive the feeling and acquaint yourself with happiness. +3\. So, just how happy do you want to be? Happiness has many shades. There is happy and then there is happy. Let's hope you don't want to be comedic or clown happy because, generally comedians and clowns are sad people who hide behind a happy face. Actually, now that I think about it, writers and artists are a fairly miserable bunch, too, present company excluded. +Speaking of happy, I was first exposed to that ever annoying happy slogan followed by a smile, ""Have a nice day,"" when I was in California in the early '70's. I was pretty happy back then or so I thought. I was working in the Boston branch office of Warner-Elektra-Atlantic Records and flew out to Las Angeles to see the corporate office and maybe meet some celebrities. Actually, I was thinking about transferring from the Boston office to the Las Angeles office, but it was too freaking hot in California and with so much pollution and traffic, everything was always too far away. I decided to stay where I was and I was ""happy"" with my decision. +Only, my imagined happiness was made apparent when practically everyone was wishing me to ""Have a nice day"". Even that guy in LA central who tried to mug me wished me to have a nice day after I beat him within an inch of his life with my Kabuton. Read my story, How to Protect and Defend Yourself if you don't know what a Kabuton is. Only, remember to give me a 5 vote after you've read it. Go ahead. Take your time. I'll wait here for you to return. +""Dee do do do do do do doe do dee da...Here is a little song I wrote. You might want to sing it note for note. Don't worry, be happy."" +Back already? That was fast. +I don't know, but maybe because I'm from the northeastern part of the country and much like New Yorkers and those people from New Jersey, we Proper Bostonians aren't real happy people. We're more realists and it's difficult to be happy when you are, as Randy Jackson of American Idol fame would say, ""Keeping things real, baby, keeping thing real."" +Matter of fact, the four things that still piss me off today are happy politicians (it makes me suspicious why they are so happy), Happy or Smiley Faces, Hare Krishna people, and someone telling me to ""Have a nice day."" +""Have a nice day."" +""I beg your pardon?"" +""Have a nice day."" +""Have a nice day? How dare you say that to me? Who the Hell are you to tell me how to live my life. Beat it! Scram! Get lost! Get outta here! Hey, wait up! Did you just put that smiley face on my car bumper? Get that fucking thing off my car and get out my life."" +""Sorry, okay, I removed my happy face sticker from your car mister. Have a nice day."" +""Have a nice day? Did you just tell me to have another nice freaking day, again? Go fuck yourself!"" +That was me then and this is me now. ""Don't worry, be happy. In every life we have some trouble. When you worry you make it double. Don't worry, be happy."" +Okay, I exaggerate, I'm not that happy, but I'm pretty happy and happy enough that I can help your miserable ass become a shade bit happier. I still don't like happy politicians, smiley faces, and Hare Krishna people though. +So, tell me, why now? Why do you want to be happy now? What has happened in your life that you suddenly feel the need for happiness now? Don't answer, yet, think about it. +Have you been feeling down and a bit blue? Are you depressed? Are you unemployed or underemployed? Do you wish you had more money? Didn't you read my story, How To Get Rich Quick? Go read it, give me a 5 vote, and come back. Go ahead. Take your time. I'll wait here. +Back already? That was fast. +Was it your divorce that set off your unhappiness? Are you alone and lonely? Did your dog die? Didn't you read my story, How To Pick The Perfect Pooch? Go read it, give me a 5 vote, and come back. Go ahead. Take your time. I'll wait here. +Back already? That was fast. +Have you gained weight recently? Are you depressed because all your clothes are tight and the weather is getting warmer, too warm to wear your sweats? Didn't you read my story, How To Lose Weight Fast? Go read it, give me a 5 vote, and come back. Go ahead. Take your time. I'll wait here. +Back already? That was fast. +Certainly, now I can more understand your reason for wanting to be happy. +Yet, happiness is but a state of mind and a sense of well being. If you can feel happiness then you can attain happiness and if you can feel and attain happiness then you are happy. Think happy and you can still be happy when everything around you is falling apart. Your happy mood and your happiness will make even the worst things in your life seem better. +No, put the gin down. Drinking will only give you a temporary high and a hangover. You need something longer lasting. You need an attitude adjustment and I'm just the guy who can give you that with this story. +Before you can find happiness you need to identify why you aren't happy now? Were you happy before? Were you ever happy? Can you remember a time when you were happy? Now, hold that thought...again. +Think of a time when you were happy. C'mon, everyone was happy many times in their lives, even you. I was happy when I was invited to a prom...four of them. +I was happy when I was going on my Honeymoon. That was a happy time for me. I was young and finally free from the control of my parents. I was on my own with the woman I loved ready and eager to embark on a new life. That was a happy time of my life. +I'm happy every Christmas giving out gifts. Christmas is a special time of year. I love the season from Thanksgiving to New Year. The happiness that I feel carries me through the cold, gray months of winter. +I'm happy every Sunday feeding the homeless, that is, so long as I don't allow the sight of so many needy people needing a bit of happiness in their lives to depress me. Sometimes the feeling of sadness that you can't give enough of yourself to really help can be overwhelming. Yet, smile and the whole world will smile with you. It's true. +""What the Hell are you smiling about? Are you making fun of me?"" +""No, I'm just happy."" +""Freaking retard."" +I was happy when I graduated college...twice. I was happy when my daughters were born...twins. I was happy when they graduated college...together. I'm really freaking happy now that they left home finally and are living on their own. +""Bye! Don't forget to write. Call me!"" +""Happy! Happy! Happy! Are they really finally gone?"" +I was happy with every new car I bought and when driving my new car. I love cars. Only, I'm not so happy now that they are sticking the greed of gas prices up our asses and our happy president is doing nothing, absolutely nothing, about it. Hmmm, it makes me suspect that he's happy to see the prices so high. Now, that I think about it, the prices shot way up after he had that meeting with his Daddy's friends, the Saudi's. +I've been happy with every dog I ever owned. Dogs make me happy. I've had five dogs in my life. Dogs are four legs and a tail worth of happy licks and playful barks. I love dogs. +""Did you just pee on my sofa?"" +Pardon me for telling you what you need to do, but you are reading my story. So, this is what you need to do to be happy. +1\. Think happy thoughts. Yeah, I know it's not easy to always think happy thoughts. This isn't Disney World and you can't always go around singing Zippity Doo Da, but if you can avoid thinking negative thoughts and replace them with as many positive thoughts as you can and continue practicing to do that more each day, then you will be happier. Trust me; no one wants to be around a sourpuss, a whiner, and a complainer. We all have problems and don't need you to bring the rest of us down. Be happy. +2\. Surround yourself with happy people. Seriously, this works. If you want muscles, surround yourself with bodybuilders. If you want to be fat, surround yourself with people who live to eat. If you want a drinking problem, surround yourself with drunks. Ergo, if you want to be happy, surround yourself with people who have a positive outlook on life and who are happy with their lives. +3\. If you can't pull yourself out of the doldrums, maybe you need to talk to a professional. Maybe, you need a bit of mental health therapy. You may have a chemical imbalance. There are magic pills out there that can better adjust your mood and change your outlook. Aside from talking with a professional and taking antidepressant medication, there are other things that you can try to improve your mood and happiness level. +4\. So many people say to get a hobby, something that you like to do to occupy your time. I have lots of hobbies and lots of interests. I have so many hobbies that I don't have time for them all. Instead of a hobby what you need is to find your passion. What it is that you love to do? Finding your passion will give you real happiness. I found my passion. I love to write. I may not be the best writer here, but few can match my creativity in coming up with story lines. +5\. Do something for someone else. Listen, it's not all about you. You are unhappy, no doubt, because you pity yourself way too much. Woe is me. Replace woe is me with how much of a help can I be to someone else? You should have a problem. There is always someone worse off than you. Yeah, I know, I met a man with no shoes who was comparably happy because he met a man with no feet. +If you want to be happy, help someone who needs a helping hand. I feed the homeless every Sunday and there go I before God. I should have a problem. There are so many people who have absolutely nothing and they are happy, happier than you and happier than me sometimes. How can I not be happy in their presence? They are so thankful and so grateful for a hot meal and a place to sleep that they warm my heart. Give me a break. Stop complaining, get off your ass, and help someone. The act of helping someone who is less fortunate than you and who really needs a helping hand will give you happiness. +If you really want happiness, as I wrote above, you need to do something nice for someone. You can start by giving me a 5 vote for this story. +6\. This by far is the most important single thing that will make you happy. No one should be alone. If you do not have someone in your life, then you need to find your special person. There is someone for everyone, even you. +Having your special someone is the one thing that can make you happy. If you have someone now and don't feel that magic that you should feel, then either you need to work at improving your relationship or you are with the wrong person. +You need someone who understands you and who loves you. You need that person who will do anything and everything for you to make you happy, as you will do for them. +You need a person to take a walk with, hug, kiss, and hold, watch television with, to talk to about everything, and to laugh at nothing. There is nothing better than being in love and there is nothing that can make you happier than making love with the one you love. +I'm lucky. I'm blessed. I don't know what I'd do without my wife, my best friend, and the love of my life. She makes me so happy. +Then, of course, there's my girlfriend. We have so much in common that it's unbelievable. I'd be lost without my girlfriend. I love her to death. She makes me so happy. +Without taking anything away from my wife and my girlfriend, there is my mistress. For those days that I'm horny, restless, and lonely and need to curl up with a warm naked, voluptuous sexy female body, I don't know what I'd do without her. I love my mistress. +God blessed me three times by giving me three beautiful women, my wife, my girlfriend, and my mistress. +Let me tell you...I'm a happy man and you deserve to be, too. +""Have a nice day.""" +298,How to be Prolific,WFEATHER,How To,2008-08-07,2008-08-07,2022-01-04 08:30:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-prolific,Strategies for writing A LOT.,"['Author Advice', 'Writing', 'Writing Advice']",4.28,"Many people have written to me or spoken with me in person to say that they are amazed at how prolific I have been. I must admit that, while my ego certainly likes such compliments, I do not particularly see myself as being prolific. Yes, I write a lot, but it is really not because of me, but because of the characters and their stories which fill my head. In essence, I am simply a means for the characters' stories to be told. +That said, there are indeed strategies which can help someone to become a prolific writer. These are strategies which I employ in order to tell the characters' stories, but they are simply strategies, and they can be used for erotica or probably any other genre of writing as well. +The first is to not _attempt_ to be prolific. This may seem counterintuitive, but it really is important. By focusing on such a goal, it could become very easy for someone to lose sight of the reason(s) one writes. Those who read a lot have certainly found this: Some authors who seem to write an encyclopedia's worth of books in a given year lose the quality of their writings over time, so while they may still be prolific, whatever their initial reasons for writing could be getting lost in the quest for higher profits for their publishers, greater fame for themselves, etc. Yes, money and fame can be good, but those goals are probably going to cause more issues than benefits in the long run – if quality drops, for example, fewer people will buy the books, which could put that person's writing career in jeopardy. Therefore, one must focus on other reasons – like the initial reasons – for writing and continually tap into those reasons to maintain a steady stream of output over time. +Related to the above is to never lose sight of the reason for writing. Personally, I simply enjoy it, in part because it is a great way to ""forget"" the issues and stresses related to my job. Writing also allows me to relive some experiences, and dabble with new concepts. Perhaps a side benefit of all this is that I am almost never bored: When things are slow, I can always think about whatever stories are currently in progress, or consider new stories to be written, so that I am always ""writing"" even when I am away from my laptop and do not have pen and paper on hand. +Inspiration simply cannot be overlooked. Personal experiences and interests can be a great source of inspiration, and once one thinks about personal interests and the various details and facets of them, for example, the number of stories which can be told could potentially be innumerable. Experiences and interests can also be ""combined"" in various ways to create new stories. For example, I love auto racing and video games, so I turned the final lap of a racing game into a story, from the point of view of the driver in the car as if the driver was in a real race and not a digitized environment. Using that same combination of interests, I have an idea for a story (which I have yet to map out on paper) in which the characters within a video game try to understand why things suddenly go dark all the time and then their next memory is of starting at the same places and situations when the darkness recedes. There are likely other permutations of the racing/gaming interest combination which would yield interesting stories. +In the end, what really helps a writer to be prolific is to have a strong character or set of characters which practically live in the writer's mind and take on lives of their own. Unfortunately, I have yet to understand just how such characters are created or why certain characters tend to have such a lengthy ""lifespan"" in terms of the stories they can tell. Yes, this can lead to lengthy tales with dozens of sequential chapters, or perhaps dozens of standalone stories featuring the same set of characters. It is usually easy to recognize when such a set of characters exists, for suddenly the end of a story featuring those characters is no longer the end of _their_ story. Unfortunately, there will be a set of readers who balk at such series and can be a source of frustration for the writer. +Finally, the most important strategy of all is to get into the habit of writing daily or at least almost-daily. For writers with very busy schedules, this may even mean staying up rather late or waking up rather early to write. The main idea here is not necessarily to write one story or chapter per day, but to write _something_ on a daily basis. There are various places online which offer a writing prompt or writing challenge every day, and these can be useful both for maintaining a daily writing habit and for inspiring what could potentially be a significant story or series. There are also various challenges available online to produce a certain amount of writing within a given time frame: NaNoWriMo is probably the best known of such challenges (writing 50,000+ words in the month of November), but one cannot underestimate the power of Literotica's own Survivor contest (being the most prolific writer on Literotica in a given calendar year). While life events may force a writer to skip one or two days of writing per month and still allow the writer to ""win"" NaNoWriMo or be named the #1 Survivor, neither goal can be attained if there are significant periods of inactivity. That said, once a daily writing habit has begun, it tends to maintain itself, even if only in the form of short fragments of unrelated stories." +299,How to be Safe in Buying Sex Toys,Middleagepoet,How To,2010-01-01,2010-01-01,2022-01-04 08:30:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-safe-in-buying-sex-toys,"Sorry kids, but we can't afford dinner tonight.","['China', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex Toys']",3.55,"Okay folks in an earlier how to guide I took you into Sears and we took care of a lot of your sexual shopping for the upcoming holiday season. The general idea was to avoid some of the snobby or overly zealous sales people at your local fetish shops. Of course, other than adapting normal hardware into sex toys, another proven way to purchase products without the embarrassment of face to face sexual conversation with a spiked, pierced and tattooed kid less than half your age can be found in the mail order catalogue. +It's easy to do, there are ads around for a lot of different mail order companies specializing in the kind of toys you want. Once you get one of their catalogues you will need to resist the urge to drop your drawers and begin masturbating right there because these are hot little publications. I mean just reading the product descriptions are as good as many of the erotic stories I read online. +As you discover the wide array of toys, devices, lubricants, porn, clamps, electric works, rubber works, etc., etc. you will need to watch your check book. I mean it would be tough at the end of the month to have to say: ""Sorry kids but we can't afford dinner tonight because of the ultra high intensity vibrating, ejaculating and gyrating vibrator I bought you mother last week."" +Yeah, and of course off they go to school the next day and give the detailed explanation why they are hungry to their teacher and so on and so on. And hell you think it's hard enough to hide your hand guns from these little kids, just try and hide your six foot long flexible double dildo. +Okay, now on a more serious note, there are some real health concerns you will need to consider when ordering your sex products. These first came to light during the Olympics in China a few years ago. Amid health concerns about some of the food served in the surrounding provinces other problems came to light. +Complaints came from women in the sex industry whom, after their customers pushed a wide assortment of Chinese made sex toys into their bodies they found an inflammation and itching problem with their ""nether region."" That means inside their pussies and assholes if you don't understand Chinese. +It seems a number of sex product producers have outsourced their manufacturing to China. Now while many of the products manufactured there, according to Chinese sex shop operators, have very high failure rates, the real problem is that China still allows the use of Poly vinyl chloride (PVC) products in these very personal type of products. PVC has been found to contain phthalate-based polyester, a chemical that some researchers believes causes ""...reduced sperm count in men and menstrual irregularities in women."" +In Japan the government prohibits the use of PVCs in nipples for baby bottles and pacifiers. The manufacturers of sex aids like vibrators and other things in Japan use silicone or ABS Resin. In Europe PVCs have been banned altogether. You can only get PVC based sex toys from China. +Okay, so you are drooling over this catalogue and find the perfect sex toy for yourself, your wife, girlfriend or all three of you together and you want to order it. Sometimes you can't be sure of the product's origin. Now when you get that brown paper wrapped box brightly labeled ""Sex Toys Inside"" (no they don't really do that, but I imagine your mailman knows what's inside) and you open it, look around for labels or some indication of who made the product. +Now if it does say China, calm down. Just slip that yellow polka dotted vibrating dildo into a condom and plunge away. Provided you exercise a bit of caution regarding tears and things, you should be protected from the PVC in the original product. And hey to be completely honest, you probably should put a condom on any of these carved or mechanical devices into anything you think important, but hey, that's just a thought. +And guys, this doesn't just go for the dildos, you know that synthetic vagina (artificial pussy) you just bought.

Of course if you have a girlfriend or wife who doesn't mind a batting average of .200 (that's one out of five) you'll be okay. +Damn, I know of a few guys in the major leagues with a batting average no better than Chinese Viagra.

Internet dating services have sprung up all over the internet with amazing speed. All interests, nationalities, religions, and ethnicities are represented. Although there is a wealth of services available, why do so many people say that they are not meeting the people they truly want to? Is it truly possible that people can meet and develop the type of relationships they are looking for online? Yes, it is, providing you know how to use online dating to your best advantage. +Because there is so much variety in the places where a person can look for other people, it is imperative that a goal is set before beginning. Decide whether the purpose is to simply meet people, to date casually, to form a long term relationship, or to simply find a sex partner. Know what the final achievement should be before setting out. Know your own mind before trying to convince another person that you would be great to get to know. +Once your goal is firmly established, search out the site or sites that best suit your needs. Are you looking for a long term relationship? Then do not consider places that cater primarily to those individuals who are only seeking out sex partners. There are hundreds of sites on the internet. Peruse them carefully for the ones that fall in line with your own interests and goals. +Not all dating services are alike. Most do have either a free section or some sort of free trial period. Take advantage of these free amenities, if the site interests you. Be careful that by choosing the free memberships, you will be limited as to the services you will be able to engage in. Some may only let you send one email a day. Others may limit your browsing capability. Others will not allow you to send email. Taking advantage of a free membership or trial period is a great way to get a feel for the site and to see if there are other people who share your interests and have the same purpose for being on that site. However, do check out the cost for membership, and be certain you are aware of the length of contract, if you can cancel at any time, and if the site will automatically recharge a credit card after your time expires. There are many good, reputable sites available, and there are some whose reputation is less than stellar. Make your selection wisely. +All online dating sites have you place an ad. Do this carefully. Find a quiet place and take your time writing out what you want to say about yourself and the person you would like to meet. Remember, this is often the first impression another person has of you and if your ad is filled with spelling errors or phrases that are not well thought out, your ad might be bypassed for another one. Be certain you spell out exactly what you are looking for, and be open about the kind of person you are. However, there is a balance, and you do not want to end up writing a book about yourself. Nobody reads ads that are overly long. Try to maintain a little mystique about yourself. That will give the other person something to ask you questions about, as well as want to get to know you better. +Normally, you will have to post some general or specific information about yourself regarding looks, ethnicity, marital status, religion, or any other topic that might be of interest to another person. Always be honest. Remember, people will be basing their response to your ad partially on how you answer these questions, and if they meet you only to discover you lied, the relationship is over before it began. Sometimes it is hard to be honest, especially if you feel that it will lessen your chances at finding another person. But that honesty in the long run is what is going to hold you above the rest. +Always try to post a picture of yourself. Face it, we all base our initial response to some one based on a physical look. That may or may not be fair, but it is truthful. Many times, people won't post a picture because they want their words to do the impressing. However, there comes a time when the other person will ask for a picture or will meet you in person. They might be impressed with you from your words, but what if they aren't? It is best to post a picture at the site, if possible. Many sites will allow you to post more than one picture, and some will allow pictures of full or partial nudity. However, for a main picture, the one that normally accompanies the ad, it is best to use a close up facial shot, with just you in the pictures. Avoid having other people appear in the picture – especially if they are of the opposite sex. Do you really think that hot gal or guy is going to think that person in your picture is just your cousin? The picture should also be fairly recent. Try to avoid posting something that is 10 years old as it really doesn't work. If you have the option of posting more than one picture, consider full body shots, candid shots, shots with groups of friends, or anything that will give some one an idea of what kind of person you are. Avoid nudity unless you are only looking for a sexual partner. It is important to note that most non-sexual oriented sites will not allow you to post pictures that contain nudity. If you have difficulty getting your picture posted, ask for assistance! People who post pictures are far more likely to receive replies to their ads and have their initial inquiries answered than those individuals who do not post pictures. +Most sites offer some sort of chat service. It can be difficult for some to get used to that environment, but it is helpful in meeting other people. It puts your name out there, and allows you to display a little of your personality. If you like to chat, it's a great way to meet other people. If you don't like chatting, perhaps just checking in occasionally is might be more your style. +When it comes time to search for people, try to be as open as you can in your search criteria. That Pamela Anderson look a like or Brad Pitt's double is probably not going to be hanging around waiting to meet you. Keep in mind that the majority of people who post ads are just ordinary people. If there is certain criterion that must be met, such as age, then try to select as broad a range as you can. You will probably not respond to all the people who come up on your search, but you want to give yourself a broad range to select from. +When choosing who to contact, be certain you take the time to look at the person's ad. If you just look at the person's picture, you are more likely to be disappointed. Read what the person took the time to write. You might find that the two of you have differing purposes and expectations. If you want a long term relationship and the other person is looking for casual dating, there will be conflict from the start. Check carefully to determine what aspects the other person is looking for in the one they are searching for. Does it describe you? Good! If it doesn't, you can still try to capture the person's attention, but bear in mind you might not get far. That's okay, however! At least you tried! +Try to initiate a lot of emails or private messages to various people. The wider the net is cast, the more fish you are liable to catch. Keep your initial email short, sweet, and simple. After all, you are simply introducing yourself. Invite the other person to check out your ad and get in touch with you. Keep in mind that most people get several responses to their ads a week, so you are likely not the only one who is responding. But that does not lessen your chances at having them look at your ad and consider you. +When you receive responses to your ad, try to respond to every one. This can seem daunting sometimes, but it is the courteous thing to do. If you are not interested, simply thank the other person for responding to your ad and let them know that you are not interested at this time. If they persist or harass you, warn them that you will notify the site administrators. If it continues, follow through with notification, if possible, block the person. +If you receive responses that interest you, be certain to keep your response short and include another way to get in touch with you. Be careful about giving out phone numbers, however. Include an email where the person might contact you, unless you feel more comfortable using the site's email service. Be aware that if the site sends you responses through your email address, and you respond, your email address will appear on the response. Be certain to erase it if you do not want the other person to know your email at this time. +It is always a good idea to take things a little slowly on the internet. People can be whoever they want to be, and may not be representing themselves honestly. Try to establish an email connection with the other person first, possibly moving to an instant messaging system for real time, one on one chat. Only when you feel comfortable with the other person should you exchange phone numbers. Realize that some people are initially shy even though they appear to be rather outgoing on the computer. It may take a while for the other person to feel comfortable around you, or vice versa. +When the time comes to meet, try to be courteous. Don't reply to an ad and expect that person to meet you that night or even that weekend. Keep in mind they have a life as do you, and they may not be immediately available to you. Ask if they would like to meet and settle on a date and time. It is a good idea to keep the first meeting casual and brief. If things move along well, you can always stay or make plans for another day. Be certain to meet the person in a public place, and be certain that some one knows exactly where you are. In the BDSM community they have ""safe calls"", and it is a good idea to incorporate into the online dating scene. Make prior arrangements with a close friend or relative to call you at a pre-determined time. Instruct the friend or relative that if you do not answer the first time to call back a few minutes later. If you still do not answer, instruct them to call the police. This might seem a little weird, but with so many people meeting strangers on the internet and then simply disappearing or ending up badly injured, you are better safe than sorry. +Go to the meeting with lowered expectations. Expect to meet a friend, a buddy. Don't meet the person expecting to meet the love of your life. You will be disappointed. By lowering your expectations, you allow room for growth. And, if things don't work out, you just might have a new friend! People can be shy at first meetings, so check your opinion if you think the other person is being snobbish or quiet. They may simply be shy. Try to emphasize asking questions about the other person. People love to talk about themselves, and this is a good way to get a shy person out of his/her shell. +Most importantly, have fun. Online dating cannot promise that you will meet your one true love or the best sex partner you ever had. All these services can provide is a way for you to meet others with the same likenesses and expectations and goals. Be honest and truthful with yourself and the other person, and simply enjoy the idea of being able to meet new and interesting people!" +301,How to be the Perfect Wife,dirtyjoe69,How To,2006-12-25,2006-12-25,2022-01-04 08:30:14,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-the-perfect-wife,Taken from one man's perspective.,"['Husband', 'Relationship', 'Wife']",4.38,"How to Be the Perfect Wife +A Man’s Perspective +I am going to give you ladies a few pointers on how to be the perfect wife. I know I will probably get a bunch of hate mail but some things you just have to let slide. +Remember women we are men, Neanderthals to the core. We aren’t perfect like you, we are men and we are going to act like men most of the time. +First, and this is a hard one for a lot of ladies to understand but we are going to look at other women. So take it for what it is, a look. Don’t be smacking your guy just because a cute little tart or some sexy thing walks by and his eyes wander. It doesn’t mean he is going to run off with her and have a mad passionate affair. It is just a natural instinct to check out a member of the opposite sex. +Second, and this is a big one that has to be worked out between the couple but porn can bring a lot of trouble in a relationship. Men have been looking at porn since the first nude pictures were available. If you have a problem with it let him know about it. Another way to overcome this problem is to join him in watching or reading the material that turns him on. If the same thing doesn’t turn you on find something that does and then you can each treat each other to your fetishes. +Third, clothes on the floor. If your man is anything like me, then they have a real problem with leaving a trail of clothes after the workday throughout the house. Let me tell you ladies after a hard day we sometimes become retarded and don’t think that clearly. The first thought in my head is I have to get out of these fricking clothes. But when we do this don’t make an issue out of it like it is the end of the world. If you have a problem with it just hint or nicely say “Hey Hun you left your clothes on the floor.” Don’t be condescending and bitchy; be nice it will go a lot further. +Fourth, the dreaded toilet seat! You girls can’t even begin to understand what a pain in the ass it is to raise up the toilet seat time and time again. If he leaves it up then just put it down. You could just as easily put it up after you are done so your man doesn’t have too! And for you ladies that say you fell into the bowl and got wet ass, why the heck aren’t you looking before you sit down! +Fifth, sex, sex and more sex! Do you have a man that wants sex all the time? Do you have a man that doesn’t want sex as much as you? If you have a man that wants it all the time and you just aren’t in the mood don’t get pissed off if he wants relief. Let him jerk off right in front of you and don’t be put off about it (he could take his desires else where). If you have a man that doesn’t want it as much as you, then you can masturbate. I can assure you once a guy sees you masturbating it won’t take long before he is in the mood. +Sixth, if you are a homemaker and don’t have a job be just that. Take pride in your house and make it so your husband can bring over a guest at anytime and not be embarrassed at the state of the home. Keep it clean and he will appreciate your efforts. If you are a working woman then make a schedule between the two of you with duties each will do so that neither of you are feeling that you are doing more than the other. If you are not working it is always nice feeling for a man to come home to dinner on the stove. I know it sounds a bit Leave it to Beaver but trust me he will love ya for it! +Seventh, treat him with a nice unexpected gift from time to time. You know how much you like getting flowers or a card for no reason, well men like getting things too! +Eighth, dress up for him. You want to rock his world. Make a point when you know the kids are going to be out for a period of time to dress up extra sexy for him. Wear your sexiest out fit and serve him dinner. Go up to bed a little before him and have the candles lit and be on the bed in your favorite position waiting for him. We like surprises like that. +Remember we are only men. We are not mind readers. The blunter you are with us the more we will get what you are trying to say. So if you want a glass of water ask for the glass of water don’t sit there and play word games to see if we can figure it out! +I hope I didn’t insult any of you ladies these are just pointers to what this man and many more like me enjoy and want." +302,How To Be The True Love Of His Life,KingRichard923,How To,2010-11-04,2010-11-04,2022-01-04 08:30:16,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-be-the-true-love-of-his-life,A look at what love is and how to make it the best.,"['Giving', 'Haughty', 'Loving', 'Sharing', 'Trust']",4.14,"Too often we work our asses off all day or to those of you with night hours, all night, and for what? Then after we fight tooth and nail through all the lane monitor drivers who should (all ride rapid transit and) get off the road, we finally make it home. We don't need to know anything is broken, one of the kids was bad and needs to be talked too. We need attention, devotion, lots of legs and always something suggestive being worn. Most men want a Sunday school teacher for a wife who (at the moment your car pulls into the driveway) turns into a $5,000.00 a night hooker. Call me perverted but sex is fun, it's perfect and it certainly takes the edge off of every day known. +I mean who needs a list being tossed at us like a Frisbee when we walk in the door? Real men want to be touched, not just physically but mentally grabbed, kissed with lust and passion. We need to be stroked, teased and more just like women do. We want it all just like women do. I might be wrong, but, don't most all men want their shoes and socks and then their pants taken off for them? Little kisses down their chest, legs, on their neck, nipples and oh yeah, a few kisses, good kisses, wet engulfing kisses to their little king. Then (without any thought about it) a real life attempt at being fully engulfed in a lusty gagging effort meaning nothing more than, I want you, I need you and I am not waiting. Stand up then, offer him your lips, a few more kisses and, raise your top up and off, offer him your sweet breasts, your nipples and take one of his hands and push it down your loose fitting pants to your smoothly attended to source of his some 200 thoughts a day. Men really are simple though. +I'll trade you two bummers that I have to handle and three items on that never ending list of yours for one deep throat and a promise that tonight you want me in you as much as I want to be in you. It's the only thing we need and I do mean only thing we need. +Keep him happy and he'll keep you happy. It's yin and yang; It's give and take; It's the trade off for a loving giving relationship. Giving, that's it, the secret to love, true love, never ending adoration galore. I know the secret to life, It's true love. But, the secret to love is giving. Fact is many people never get it. But, this world is made up of givers and takers. That's it, the simple truth is; we all want lots of things, but, do we deserve any of it? +So pay attention because here is the message in this ""how to"" section. The only reason to come home for most men is you. You being a naughty, lusty, passionate, sexual predatory temptress who loves to dress up for us in little skimpy lacy outfits that allow us a place of easy and focused sexual attention. Start with strokes, kisses, licks and sucks that all should become part of your shared vision of true love. Don't waste your thoughts or breath saying I don't like the way I look in these lacy things, or, dressing in skimpy naughty attire doesn't look good on me. Yes it does, I love you, I want you, I need you, that's why I rush to get home to you. As simple as it sounds it is, it is. I mean, hoping you want me and need me as much as I want and need you is the mandatory foundation to true love. +It's the giving part of true love. You use it or you lose it. If your guy buys you skimpy attire that he wants to see you in, go for it what do you have to lose? Other than him I mean. Read stories here on Literotica to turn yourself on. If you have fantasies, share them with him, give him a chance to give back to you but give, give, give. +One day I found all the naughty attire in the bag going to the Goodwill I had been buying and giving my ex. What? I thought! I am not worthy of being dressed up for? You don't care what I like? Want? Need? I took that as a sign, her sign, bummer for her though it was a stop sign. Shit women, if he buys you naughty little outfits, scanty, frilly, skimpy clothes to wear for his mental pleasure, wear them. +My ex used to say, why don't you hold my hand like he's holding hers? I would say because she swallows and you don't. I mean here I am addicted to your scent, your taste and your body and why? I drink your fluids hell I'd stick my tongue up your butt every damn day if you'd let me. But no! You won't drink my fluids. Well she's single now and women I can say this meaning it and knowing it's true she's single and deservedly so! +Giving is the secret to love, if it's not 100% it's nothing. Anything less than giving everything to your love is quite frankly less than how love was designed to be. I see it as if both people in a real life true love relationship has to be wired to give without expectations. Hold up a minute. This may be the best definition of love to date. Giving without expectations. When you both give to the extreme, asking your love how to please them expertly, (each and every time you two make it a point to be sharing your fantasies in bed or wherever the need is right damn now). It's the way that will give them the deepest most gut wrenching orgasm possible and doing what it is exactly they are asking for; at the right pressure, on the right spot, it's perfect, right? It opens up the communication and makes all other conversation just about 260,000% easier for both of you. +If you cannot talk, have fun, laugh out loud, cry, lose control, all while pleasuring your partner; it's not true love. What it is, is a settlement, an acceptance of limitations, a trade off, a lie. A lie that will never mend the hurt and suffering his and your own mind is needing healing from. So! If Giving without expectations is the secret to love and true love is the secret to life. Is that easy enough for you to understand? I hope so, because with the divorce rate at what it is and rising, is giving what your true love needs, ever too much to fucking ask for? I mean think about being that perfect woman to him and for him. Because you are exactly who he dreams of, or he wouldn't be there. Yep you can do it, you can be his Sunday School teacher who transforms into a hooker with all the trades tricks perfected. So do it, do it the minute he walks in the door, see if your life changes for the better.

So, don't presume this exercise is anything like beating a living horse. It takes dedicated effort to get yourself nowhere. +Take a proper grip on your instrument. The work is cleaner if it's a blunt object; more effective if it's heavy. Wind up, and start with the head. That initial blow needs to come down hard. +Be precise. Don't hesitate. It takes nerve. Fight down any nausea. +Because after that first blow, he'll pretend that all this is new. That the lifeless, grotesque hide of this dead horse has never been offensive.

Afterwards, immediately roll onto your side away from him. +Sometimes, stomping on the body cavity helps to crush the heart: +Pretend to forget pet-names. What he gave you for Christmas.

We feel sad and restless, and left untreated these symptoms can develop into a serious and dangerous depression. +Instead of feeling like weirdoes for having ""shameful"" psychological problems, we should recognize this for what it is; our bodies' natural physical reaction to the changes in the environment. Sort of like when we breathe in fumes from a car, and the carbon dioxide causes us to cough. +Just like we protect our health by avoiding to have a pick nick next to a running car, we need to protect our health against the lack-of-light depression. +In those cases where the symptoms are very strong, some doctors prescribe medicine and light-therapy, where the patient is exposed to hours of strong lights. People who have strong feelings of depression should most definitely seek medical care. This is a serious physical, not mental disease! +Those who are only having a mild case of The Blues, however, may try doing a little health treatment at home. +Since you're feeling low due to your body not getting enough light, the first step is to bring more light into your home. Lots of light! Turn on every lamp you have! Buy small, decorative lamps and pack the windows and bookcases with them. OK, it may not be all that environmental friendly, but you can always make up for that in the summer, by not using any lamps at all. +You could also light candles – a very popular thing to do in Sweden in November – January. But be careful – don't EVER leave candles burning unattended! +If you look through the window and all you see is another concrete apartment building, smoking factory chimneys, or a messy, slushy street, then that sight's going to make you feel even more gloomy. Shut it out! +Cover your windows with curtains or Venetian blinds in bright, cheerful colours, and focus on the inside of your home instead. Try to see it as a cosy cave, where you're kept safe and warm from the cold and the darkness outside. +Clutter is tiresome for the eye. Try to scrape up the necessary energy, and then put one weekend aside to have a BIG cleaning. Sort things, scrub floors, the whole package, and you'll feel much lighter at heart afterwards. +Mind how you dress! Boring, worn-out clothes in black and grey will make you feel worn-out and grey yourself. Choose clothes that make you feel attractive, preferably in light, cheerful colours. If you use make-up, take the extra time to make yourself look truly gorgeous! It will do wonders for your self-esteem. As will all the compliments and admiring looks you're bound to get! +Take a walk every day if you can manage it, preferably in nature. The physical exercise will change your restless energy into an urge to do something positive; work, clean up, finish tasks that have been left behind, etc. +The light, the fresh air, and the exercise will improve your health, and being out in nature will reduce your feelings of stress. It's hard to feel stressed about the assignment that is due on Tuesday, when you're meditating under a tree that has seen generation after generation of people rush by. Trees know the truth. There's nothing more important than feeling good. Calm and harmonious. Be a tree! +It might also be a good idea to mind your diet. You need to take care of yourself and give your body what it needs to stay strong and healthy. Avoid fast food, sugar and fat, this is just empty calories, and don't drink too much coffee either. Part of being depressed has to do with the body mixing up the hormones, so that we get the sleeping hormones during the day, causing us to feel tired; while we get the ""working hormones"" during the night, making us feel stressed and nervous. +Eat lots of fruit and vegetables, avoid fried food, and switch to mild herbal tea. Make sure to get your daily dose of vitamins. +If you have trouble falling asleep, don't try to force yourself to fall asleep, this will only enhance the stress. Drink a glass of milk, open the window – a lot of people sleep better when the bedroom is cold – and just lay back and relax. Try to think of something nice. Something positive. Daydream. It doesn't matter if it's completely impossible for you to quit your job and travel around the world, in your dreams, you are allowed to do whatever you want. Let your fantasy run free, and create an ideal world for yourself, a world where you can do whatever you want. This sort of positive thinking has a strengthening effect on your self-esteem, even though you may not notice the effects right away. +Plus, it gives you something nice to do while you're waiting for the sandman... +And finally – get your mind off boredom and anxiety by doing something funny. At least ONCE a day, do something you really enjoy. Read a book. Rent a movie. Call a friend. Join a cooking class. Go out dancing. Have sex. In really desperate cases, ask a friend to tickle you! +Hang in there. Everything comes and goes. Spring and light and happiness WILL come again. You just keep busy having fun while you're waiting for it." +305,How to Become a Sissy/Cuckold,Quietoldie,How To,2016-10-18,2016-10-18,2022-01-04 08:30:18,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-become-a-sissy-cuckold,For husbands wanting change in their marriage.,"['Adultery', 'Cream Pie', 'Crossdressing', 'Cuckold', 'Fem Dom', 'Flr', 'Panties', 'Sissy', 'Stockings', 'Submissive']",4.41,"This is a How To Guide for Sissies and Cuckolds. +Please do not read this guide if you have no interest in the cuckold/sissy lifestyle. +Like most couples these days both partners will be doing demanding full time jobs. Traditionally husbands have done gardening, cleaning the car, putting out the trash, performing do it yourself jobs around the house, driving the car if you are going out in it together and anything that might come under the heading of 'physically demanding' work. It's true that the last sentence now sounds somewhat old fashioned although there are still marriages where such arrangements exist. If you are the kind of husband that secretly desires a different relationship with your wife the chances are that you have already negotiated a more equal division of labour. You have accepted that, where both of you are doing demanding occupations, it's only fair that tasks outside working hours are shared equally. +My advice for those drawn to the sissy/cuckold lifestyle is to work towards a female led relationship first of all. Broaching the idea of your wife becoming sexually active outside your relationship whilst you indulge your desire for cross dressing could be unnecessarily shocking for your wife coming right out of the blue. +What you are embarking on is quite difficult. You have a long term aim in mind but you are not letting on what it is at this stage. I would also advise against arriving home and announcing that you are putting your wife in charge of all decisions from now on. Do it by stealth. Gradually take over as many of the household tasks as possible without making a fuss about it. Encourage her with her career. Compliment her abilities so that she gains the confidence to apply for promotion. Suggest she works longer hours to gain respect and further her career. Buy her white silk blouses and other tops that make her look smart and efficient at work and iron them for her. Coach her to improve her interviewing skills. Encourage her to buy a newer, bigger car whilst not changing your own car. Make sure that your joint trips are in the new car with her driving. +Your wife will be feeling the benefits of not having the repetitive humdrum tasks to do on her return from work and at weekends, (you'll be doing the ironing at the weekend). Her confidence will increase and she will begin making more of the important decisions in your marriage. Don't challenge her decisions, go along with them. Praise her even if you feel she is wrong. This will be frustrating and against your usual nature. It's important that whilst you are building up and improving her career you are allowing yours to stay in the doldrums. +Leave work early, go into work after your wife. (you'll need to put the breakfast things into the dishwasher). Wherever possible have a meal ready when your wife arrives home from work. You'll need an apron when completing kitchen work, why not wear one of hers, or if there are no suitable ones in the house, buy her an especially feminine one with pastel shades and flowers, then wear it yourself. You'll be sending her a subliminal message. +If you have enjoyed alcohol in the past it's important that you cut down. You must avoid becoming inebriated at all costs. You cannot get out of control because your accepting, submissive behaviour may slip. Encourage your wife to drink more alcohol, share a bottle of wine with her and make sure she drinks the lion's share. Be prepared for her being more self centred and less kind to you when in drink. You may find out what she really thinks about you and at this stage it may be hurtful. You will be sober. Take it on the chin. Do not react. Your best strategy is to say 'Yes dear' to any criticism. If she tells you that you are behaving like a wimp your best plan is to agree with her. +In a sense you have been acting a part although it will probably become second nature over time particularly if you enjoy it and find it sexually stimulating. Many submissive men become aroused completing tasks such as ironing for their wives. You may enjoy ironing items that do not need ironing such as her panties. Wives might read a hint into that and if nothing else she will find it amusing. +These changes will not happen overnight but it's important to be patient if you want to achieve your dream. You will notice a distinct change in the way she speaks to you and how she treats you in other ways drunk or sober. No doubt she'll show her gratitude but it's inevitable that over time she will begin to take you for granted. Your status in the family will have dropped quite low. Her friends will be envious and she will boast about how she can twist you around her little finger. If she does this in front of you, you will find it humiliating but in reality your new life has hardly started. Imagine overhearing your wife discussing her latest boyfriend and showing them pictures of you in panties. Their laughter will be far louder and longer. Again there are cuckolds who find it arousing to become a figure of fun. +Whenever you go out for an evening to a place that sells alcohol always offer to drive. Encourage her to let her hair down especially if she's had a rough week working long hours. Boost her confidence by suggesting that other men in the restaurant or bar find her attractive and are trying to catch her eye and flirt with her. This may or may not arouse her but once back at home mention a particular man you think she might have been attracted to whilst making it clear that you want to fool around. Mention that you have a work colleague who enjoys wife swapping. Talking dirty in this way will heighten her sexual tension. +Once you are under the bedclothes crawl down the bed and lick her cunt. Make sure you bring her to orgasm then cuddle her but don't try to enter her. If she has had a lot to drink she may fall asleep without noticing but if she reacts make up a lie about your penis being sore or suffering bruising to your balls. Do this regularly so that actual fucking becomes less and less common. It will be necessary for you to masturbate more frequently. Make sure you wank off before you go out drinking together. You can learn a lot from masturbating to erotic stories about cuckolds and sissies but don't forget that they are not real. They are written mainly by men to titillate and give you an orgasm. Sometimes the stories are so unlikely that they become ridiculous but these are often the stories that are the most popular. +We all know that there is always a fair amount of flirting going on in most office workplaces. This flirting will pave the way for more serious sexual behaviour on office nights out and particularly at the Christmas office party. It is essential that you make sure your wife goes to the office Christmas party on her own. You may pretend to be interested in going then drop out at the last minute. She will, of course, want to choose her own outfit but encourage her to wear a dress not trousers if you get the chance. Provided there has been sufficient time to bring about the changes outlined above this may be an opportunity to take things a step further. As she is getting ready to go out pour her a glass of wine or mix her a gin and tonic or whichever alcoholic drink she prefers. Your conversation might be as follows; +""I hope you are going to have a good evening dear. Just enjoy yourself tonight won't you? You know I'm not the jealous type."" +""What are you trying to say dear?"" +""Well, I find it difficult to put it into words. It's just that I know that things sometimes get out of hand on these sort of nights. I don't mind you flirting a little, it's only natural. I just want to reassure you that, if anything does happen I won't get mad. I want you to have a good time, let your hair down. You are a free woman, forget about me for once, just do what you want to do."" +""So what you're saying is, if I want to kiss Mike from Accounts I can come home and tell you all about it and you'll be all relaxed and smiley and glad that I enjoyed myself?"" +""Yeah pretty much, it might give me a stiffy. I know I've been neglecting you lately."" +You've prepared the groundwork but don't be surprised if your wife shakes her head in disbelief and marches out of the house thinking that you are going a bit crazy. The important thing is, you've planted an idea in her head which she won't forget. It may take months or even years to bear fruit. But if you've judged the timing perfectly she may reply as follows; +""Okay darling, thank you. I'm going to have a few more drinks than usual and see what happens. Fetch me that little black dress from the wardrobe, the one you like so much. And I'd better wear the half cup bra sweetie. Mike's always trying to flirt with me at work. He's got a bit of a reputation around the office. Are you sure you're okay with this?"" +""Of course I am. All those extra hours you've worked this last year. It's made a big difference to our income. You deserve a good night out. Here, I bought you these I thought you might like to wear. They'll put you in the mood."" You show her a pair of expensive black stockings. She takes them off you looking uncertain. +""Stockings? I never wear stockings these days. Wait a minute,--they are the right size. I suppose I could wear them. There's a suspender belt in the bottom of my knicker drawer somewhere."" She looks at you. You are smiling. ""You checked didn't you?"" You nod looking a little embarrassed. ""Thank you, darling, you've really thought this through haven't you?"" +""I suppose so."" +""Mike may not settle for a kiss and a cuddle. What if...?"" +""He wants to fuck you? Like I said, it's your decision. If that's what you want it's okay with me. Has this Mike had sex with other married women in the office?"" +""So they say, but their husbands don't know anything about it. There'd be hell to pay if they found out."" +""This kind of thing helps spice up a marriage. I'll bet there are a few of his conquests who tell their husbands all about it. It's becoming quite common these days you know. Strong, manly men are in short supply. It's only natural for a woman to fuck with them, enjoy their bigger cocks, then go home to their husband who provides them with the love and security that they enjoy with him. Their husband enjoys the fact that they have this outlet, it makes them happy and contented."" +""Don't you see yourself as a strong, manly man?"" +""If I did you would know that I was deluding myself. Actually I feel more womanly than manly at times."" You look at her a little embarrassed. +This might stop her in her tracks. She'll look at you and raise her eyebrows. +""What's made you say that darling?"" +""When I was nineteen my company sent me on an Outward Bound course for a month. It was supposed to bring out my leadership qualities. It didn't really work in my case, some of the tougher guys from the big cities bullied me. It didn't help that part of the course meant performing a play and our director casting me as a teenage girl. I had to wear a dress, put a wig on and make up. The bullies could see I loved it. They delighted in pulling up my skirt and showing the others my erection. But I've never forgotten how I felt at the time. Wearing women's clothes just seemed right somehow."" +If you're really lucky your wife will appreciate your honesty and take an understanding attitude. She might say; +""I expect you'll have tried on some of my things when I'm out haven't you dear?"" Your brief nod and red face tells her all she needs to know. ""It's okay, I won't shout at you. It's a lot to take in at the moment. I'm glad we had this chat. All this has come as a bit of a shock."" +Once she's spent all night with Mike giving her the fucking of a lifetime your marriage will have changed forever. If Mike spurns her advances there will be other studs who welcome them. Once she's been broken by a big cock she'll want to do it again and again and not just with him. You'll encourage her to dress more provocatively and pretty soon the word will get around that she's an easy lay. People will look at you in the street and turn away and whisper something to their friends. You'll hear people giggling and assume they are laughing at you and often you'll be right. +Hopefully you are married to a kind, sensible woman who appreciates you and spends most of her time with you, her cuckolded husband. Once she's processed your cross dressing revelation she'll want you in panties under your work clothes and a night dress in bed. She'll be sensible enough to realise that turning you into a sissy will increase her domination over you. If she still wants to fuck with you she'll prefer it if you lie under her, legs apart whilst she does all the work pushing her cunt hard onto your penis. You'll be spending even more time with your head between her legs slurping up another man's semen until you begin to enjoy the taste. +She'll be the one in charge so it will be up to her whether she brings men home and lets you watch them fucking her. She may expect you to dress as a maid and serve them drinks. She may like you to take part in their fucking, licking her clitoris or nipples as he fucks her or sucking his cock to get him hard. Many wives place their sissy cuckold husbands in chastity, locking their penises in a device which prevents an erection. They themselves can become as submissive with their lovers as you are submissive with them. A cruel stud might take the key to the chastity device away from your wife. +So be careful what you wish for, it might come true." +306,How to Become a Smoothie,FloridaSmoothie,How To,2012-09-07,2012-09-07,2022-01-04 08:30:19,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-become-a-smoothie,The phases in going from hair down there to bare.,"['Pubic Hair', 'Shaving', 'Smooth']",3.71,"This instructional is not for fruits wanting to get pulverized in a blender. It's for people interested in the serious topic of personal transition from hairy to bald in the most intimate area. Also, it does not have tips on pubic shaving, as those are aplenty online, and I have nothing to add to what has been published. Finally, none of this applies to athletes who remove hair for competitive purposes. +This guide will take you through the four or five steps (depends upon your circumstance) of going from hiding your favors behind a fog of fur to baring your bald beauty. I believe these steps are easier to accomplish than the 12 steps needed to cure a run-of-the-mill addiction. That is just an opinion since I have no addictions other than smoothism and nudism and have no desire to cure either. A good dose of illumination in the manner of my transformation is included for instructional and creative stimulation. +Step one, inspiration. Most likely you are not going to suddenly, out-of-the- blue, think about removing your hair down there. Reading this could just be the stick that breaks your camel's back. It could be that stripper at the neighborhood titty bar. There are endless inspirational possibilities, but a 1962 Playboy centerfold will not be among them. +For me, it was a magazine dedicated to bare female vulvas called ""Close Shave"" I discovered in the 1980s. At the time, it was the only magazine I could find specializing in the topic. Complete removal of pubic hair was not yet mainstream, and in some books and articles it was referred to as kinky. Since it was a fringe sex magazine, it contained no advertisements. Most of the models were not as attractive as the young women found in the more acceptable porn magazines of that time. The ""Close Shave"" women were usually older than the typical porn models, but they showed me the things I wanted to see. I eagerly anticipated the newsstand appearance of each issue. +In the back of the magazine was an amateur section, where pubeless readers self pictures were published. They never showed the faces of these amateurs. Each submission contained only the name and the state of the person. Sure. In one issue they published pictures of a male that removed his pubic hair. Supposedly, he was from California. Until I saw those pictures, the idea of a male removing his pubes had never occurred to me. He was my inspiration. +Step two, desire. This may be the hardest part; recognizing you want to take the plunge. Of course, it is easily reversible, unless you do laser or electrolysis; unlike getting that embarrassing tattoo removed. It is one thing to recognize other folks are living without pubes, but quite another to decide go there yourself. Nobody can create the desire within you, although you may have a sex partner, fuck buddies included, who begs you to go for it (see step three, motivation, below). +This was not the case for me, as I was flying solo at the time. For a few weeks I kept returning to the ""Close Shave"" pictures of the pube free male. I found them stimulating. What would it be like if I also shaved my pubic hair? I had a very thick bush and it was not a pretty sight. Once I realized there was an alternative to the way I looked naked, the desire to change grew within me. +Step three, motivation. Going from desire to removing it requires a motivating factor. There could be any number of things that motivate you to go smooth. Just a few that are mentioned often by those of us in this select group: the naughtiness of it, the promise of better oral sex, closer skin to skin contact during intercourse, a different look, keeping up with the Jones, pleasing or surprising a partner, and/or easier access to your genitals for masturbation. +My motivations were practical, sensual and sexual. The practical was to no longer get hair caught in condoms while putting them on or taking them off, when the opportunity arose. The sensual was to improve the view of my goodies (i.e. junk or package) in the mirror. (A guy thing.) The sexual motivation was to optimize my masturbation sessions, a favorite pastime, with better hand- genital contact. +Step four, support. This may or may not be a biggie for you. If you are not involved with anybody at the time, you can go to step five. Otherwise, you will want moral and/or physical support from those with whom you share you genitalia. If you are going to surprise a significant other with your transformation, you better do some investigation to their feelings about smoothies of your gender. If there is one thing consistent on the Literotica discussion boards, it is the various view points regarding this. Just because a person is smooth does not mean they want their partner to be smooth. One such example, smooth women who think bare male genitalia is reserved only for boys. So a word to the wise; investigate. +In the event you already have moral support, your partner may become instrumental in lending physical support, otherwise known as being the shaver to your role as shavee. +As I was single and not involved with a woman at the time, the support issue did not impact my transformation. It came into play with every partner I had subsequently. None of them objected to my lack of pubes, and in three cases, the women had me shave them for their first smoothie experience. The first time the woman I eventually married saw me naked, she quickly asked me to shave her. Yum. +Step five, acceptance. Some folks experiment with pubic hair removal under a number of circumstances which may not have included any or all of the first four steps. They may have done it on a dare from a college roommate. They did it for a porn photo session. They did it to shock a parent or grandparent. They did it for sexting. The reasons are nearly endless. Acceptance is committing to being smooth as a lifestyle choice; a part of how you plan to live for the foreseeable future. It becomes part of who you are, your identity. In other words, you will not care what your dermatologist or gynecologist thinks when they see you are a smoothie. Think of it as Smoothie Pride! +My coming out as a smoothie had two aspects; family and doctors. My father and I were often nude together. As I originally left some of the hair around my penis untouched, and there was so much of it, at first I do not think he noticed the change. A few years later, when I started trimming the surrounding hair, my smoothness became rather noticeable. Although he never said anything about it, once I noticed him do a double take while looking at me from a distance. +Finally, I have been to three dermatologists for examinations since I began removing my pubic hair. Never a comment from any of them. My guess is they appreciated how it made the examinations easier for them. And when I had a vasectomy, the doctor's instructions were to shave the pubic hair prior to the operation. No problem." +307,How to Beg,robinet_esclave,How To,2009-04-23,2009-04-23,2022-01-04 08:30:19,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-beg,A submissive's guide to begging.,"['Bdsm', 'Begging', 'D/S']",4.53,"_With gratitude and obedience- your dearest kitten_ +Begging is act that is not just an art form, but also a requirement in serving as a submissive. To some subs, it may feel awkward or even humiliating to plead for something they want since it has been engrained in them that the needs of their Dominant takes priority over their own. However, begging actually reinforces the position of power in the relationship through acknowledging that the Dominant has the choice to grant or deny a submissive's request depending on how well their level of desperation or genuine need is communicated. For some, verbalizing their needs can be very difficult since it requires deep understanding of their own desires, the ability to articulate personal feelings and thoughts and makes them vulnerable to criticism, judgment and rejection. +Begging can be displayed in many forms such as verbal pleading, hand gestures or kneeling or even facial expressions conveying desperation. Regardless of the type of begging a Dom enjoys or wants performed, the message of sincere need must be conveyed. In my case, my Dom will tease and arouse me to the point where every inch of my body is on fire with desire and I feel as though my heart is pounding out of my chest and my clit is throbbing with intensity and he will tell me to beg for him to fuck me. I can barely stand not having him inside me, so I compose myself enough to verbalize my need for him and how desperately I crave his cock deep in my dripping wet cunt. The first thing I do, is rephrase what he asked of me. Whenever my Dom asks me to beg for something, it is not his words he wants to hear out of my mouth but my own. He wants to hear my need, my feelings, why I truly want what I am pleading for and not just appeasing his command. +Verbal begging involves articulating exactly what you want and how you will feel once you get it. This includes details of your desire. To say simply ""please fuck me"" doesn't say anything about what is driving you to plead for it or even what craving you need satisfied. I will say something more along the lines of, ""I need my cunt to be consumed by you, to feel you thrust in me, claiming what you own. My body yearns for the heat and power of your cock filling me, having your body grind against mine. I am your slut, your slave, please use me. My juices are dripping down my thighs I want you so desperately, please ease the agony of my lust and tension by fucking me savagely."" This brutal honesty tells my Dom what I want and why I want him. He also knows that it embarrasses me to verbalize such nasty, sexual thoughts and the fact that I'm pleading in this straightforward, specific way shows him that I am doing this to please him. +In addition to begging with your words, you can also beg with you body or express your desire through your facial expressions. If you spout about yearning to be consumed, that your body actually aches with need to be fucked and used, to have some kind of release from the pain of anticipation, it is important to look like this need is affecting you physically. This aids in conveying that your need is genuine. Getting on your knees and looking up with pleading eyes can humble you, and reminds you that you are begging your Dominant to grant your request. I will find myself placing my hand on my chest while begging, because my words are pure and I am speaking from my heart. There is a pain in my chest from how much I need him to fuck me. I also look him directly in the eye, connecting with him, so he can feel my desire through my eyes. I have the tendency to wear my emotions on my face, so if I am desperate to be fucked, my face will express my agony, my yearning for my Dom's cock. While I'm begging, I will hear myself moan through my words because I am overwhelmed with need. I have also begged only using my eyes because I was in too much anguish to speak, all I could do was look at my Dom with intense, vulnerable eyes as tears of lust ran down my cheeks. +No matter how your Dominant prefers you to beg, it is important to remember that having your request granted is a gift. Pleading properly is to bestow mercy upon you which is something that needs to be earned. While begging, your Dom wants to see your true self, all composure and vanity stripped away so all that is left is a pleading, sex driven submissive who would do anything to have their Dom grant their request. As a submissive, we live to serve our Dominant, and begging for what we need is just another way to please him/her done with respect, honesty and love." +308,How To Blow A Guy In His Underpants,sack,How To,2004-09-01,2004-09-01,2022-01-04 08:30:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-blow-a-guy-in-his-underpants,New skill for your repertoire.,"['Boxer Briefs', 'Boxer Shorts', 'Deep Throating', 'Fingers Butt', 'Full Cut', 'Move Tongue', 'Pair Underwear', 'Swallow Cum', 'Tongue Action', 'Year Olds']",4.16,"One of the best kept secrets is how pleasurable it is for a man to be blown in his underpants. Once a guy can relax enough to let it happen, foreplay will never quite be the same. For couples wishing to explore having sex in public, it is vital that men's underwear flies become inviting and sexy, not merely a clothing barrier. There are many situations in which it is too risky to get totally naked, but dropping a guys' pants to his knees is possible and the ensuing underwear blow job is a real pleasure. +Basically, once the pants come down, you will be staring at white or colored jockey briefs (pants, slips, jocks) or trim/full cut boxer shorts. Occasionally a man will sport a thong or a bikini, but generally such individuals will wear briefs as well. Since the techniques herein only work with underwear that have an open fly, you will have to encourage the bikini or thong wearer to switch to briefs, at least for public trysts! In general, men 18 to 30 wear mostly trim or full cut boxers, or boxer briefs, 31 to 45 year olds sport a mixture of briefs and patterned boxers, and 45 year olds and up are more apt to choose tighty whities. +The fly on white or colored jockey shorts and boxer briefs is very similar, so the technique for blowing a guy through these is the same formula. Basically, the piss flap resembles an oval with a little kink in it. Put the index fingers of both hands on either side of the oval, and pull them away from another. Gradually, a very small opening will be revealed as the flaps of the brief begin to part. Move the opening to where the cockhead is pressing against the fabric and make it as wide as you can. Then, stretch the fabric over the swollen glans until just the head peeps out. You can now swallow the cockhead and press down with your mouth so that the prickshaft spreads the briefs fly one delicious inch at a time. Your guy will be moaning and grunting as he revels in the exquisite sensation of his penis spreading his briefs and entering your mouth. If the briefs are very tight, they will function as a cock ring and keep a man's prick rock hard. +When the dork is completely out of the briefs fly, put your hands up the jockeys' legs and gently cup your partner's balls. At the same time, swirl your lips over the cockhead, making sure to dip your tongue rapidly over the frenulum several times. Gradually alternate deep throating the cock with side and top tongue action, taking care not to go too deeply at first. At this point, your man will be grunting like a sweaty pig and will be working on holding back. Move your fingers up the back of his briefs and put a few fingers in his butt. The intensity of the sensations could very well bring him over the edge. At this point, you could either swallow his cum, let it fly all over the place, or have his shirt catch the cream. If the jockeys are tight it is liable to be a very powerful orgasm, so expect a lot of screaming, swearing, and bellowing. Guys that wear briefs are often skeptical about being blown in them, thinking it will be awkward, painful, etc. However, once they have experienced an expert blow job with them on, the second and subsequent times are a piece of cake and eagerly anticipated! +With boxer shorts, you have the added advantage that a guy's balls can be sucked out of the fly as well. Even die hard brief wearers should be encouraged to wear boxers to bed to at least experience the difference in the blow job technique. As the pants come down, the head and part of the excited shaft will try to poke out of the boxer fly. You may have to undo buttons or snaps (fun!) or simply spread the ample pee flap. The fly on most boxer shorts is wide enough to take a man's balls completely out. Beginning with the hefty sacs, move your tongue as far back as you can, bathing each ball with ample spit. Your guy should be moaning and shrieking if you do this correctly, with gentle pressure and maximum tongue area. After you feel the testicles are ready to burst, move your tongue over the prick head and lick the sides and glans vigorously. Then, take the cockhead and part of the shaft as far down your throat as you can. As your man groans into oblivion, alternate deep throating his wang with frantic tongue action on the head. You can also put your fingers up his butt to facilitate a strong orgasm. +If you don't want to swallow cum, take another pair of boxer shorts, encircle the cockhead with the elastic waistband, and jerk the prick up and down firmly. This will simulate a blow job, and your significant other will shoot the Load of Loads into the spare pair of underwear. Some couples take a break at that point, and then the guy screws the gal/guy with the boxer shorts still on, also very pleasurable, especially if they are silk. +One way of making an underwear blow job a special treat is to wait for a certain day of the week (TGIF!) or special occasion, birthday, anniversary, etc. Another possibility is to reward the conversion of briefs to boxers or vice versa with some head through the brand new pair. Usually new underwear is a bit stiff and tight, so the above techniques can get the fly opened up easily, to the delight of both participants! +With public sex, it is preferable to take the trousers down to at least mid thigh, to avoid the tingling sensation of a guy's zipper chafing his cock. The sight of a stiff dork and bloated balls sticking out of a cute pair of boxers or a trapped cock making a vulgar mound in a pair of briefs should turn on even the most jaded partner.

Ever wondered what cyber is, how it feels, why people bother? Here's my personal journey, written at the time and annotated later! +I hope that you enjoy reading and get a new perspective. I realize that some of my advice/ hints go against the grain, but, hey, I broke the rules and ended up happy as a clam!! +================= +Foreword- +I am a nice person, I swear! I've been married for 15 years, never cheated, and I love my sweetie husband SO much!! I live in hope that our hot sex life will come back, but for now we seem to be in a holding pattern. How long since we've um, done it? A YEAR and counting! And the past 8 years haven't been that hot, either...but I live in hope, remember what we had, and...well, I already said live in hope, right? Here's where my journey began, six months ago that feels like a lifetime! +================= +""Boy, do I feel dumb. I was feeling lonely and went online to an adult chatroom and invited the first person who said hi to me to private chat. Even though he was hanging out in the Japan chatroom, he was from somewhere in Europe, very polite, not great English. I am ashamed to admit that I started to feel bad for him for having to chat about my job and pets, and suggested we have some sexy chat...next thing I know (yes, I clicked the accept button, but I didn't know what I was doing!) I was staring at his giant **** on a webcam . Since he was (obviously) ready to go and happy to have been asked, I gave it the old college try, with the predictable results...then we said goodbye and I thought...well, that was fine, not the guy for me, but maybe if I can find someone who is better at English and typing with one hand, no webcam and more imagination, this cybersex thing is not all that bad... "" +================= +Note to those who have read this far...I STRONGLY recommend keeping your cyberfrolics one-on-one, at least at first!!!!! What do I mean by this? DON'T bring any third parties, real or imaginary, into the special world that the 2 of you are creating. If that is your freaky thing, feel out the situation and wait 'til there is a good level of trust before telling stories involving third persons or having a virtual orgy...for many cyberpartners, the intimacy that comes from having a virtual playspace with someone who knows and understands them is very healing...risk that at your own, well, risk! +My best advice about the ""HOW"" is to, beyond all other considerations, try to start out with someone sympathetic and expressive! Lit is a GREAT place to find a the right match. If you are female, just make up a sexy username and when offers come in (and they will!), check out the person's story submissions and profile, then, when you're too hot to resist, send a friendly private message. +If you're a guy, find a woman who has written a story that appeals to you and write and compliment her!! +If you need it bad, you can get it anytime by contacting random people who are online, but if your needs/ preferences don't match, you may well wish you hadn't! In any case, be kind...we are all just people with needs, trying to find someone to brighten our days and/ or nights. +OK, enough of a lecture, back to the journey! +================= +""Then, back to another chatroom, this one less general and more ""I need it bad, right now"" type (I know, I know, what was I thinking??). Again I intelligently invited the first guy who said hi to private chat and again there was this weird 30 minutes of polite talk about my pets and favorite music (I thought the first guy was just shy...NOT). Me (now that I've read this forum, I know that I was acting like a major cyber-ho), thinking to speed things up a tad, suggest that perhaps we should cut to the chase a bit, and next thing I know we're virtually doing the deed...No webcam this time, thank goodness, and the guy was nice enough to explain that his ""endowment"" was very average (not nearly as scary as what I found myself landed with the first time), and he was very sweet...He asked me to be his Net GF, whatever the heck that might entail, and I said sure...we said 'bye. and I sent him a note to say hi and thanks...me and my ideas of netiquette! I think I actually got a virtual crush on him, or, more accurately, on my image of him, since I have no idea what he might be like in person. He replied that night and said he is coming to my country and let's spend the weekend together and lots of ""honey"" and ""sweetie"" and ""my girl""...and I started wondering what exactly I had agreed to! I made an appointment to meet him at a certain time a few days later to talk, thinking that I would be able to explain how clueless I had been."" +==================== +WOW! I was SO shocked and clueless! Read on for the 7 lessons I learned PDQ! +NOTES- 1) On privacy! +This was a VIRTUAL appointment to meet him...be VERY cautious about giving out personal info if you don't want your new paramour to show up on your doorstep with flowers...the power of cyber is...powerful! +2) On the uses and misuses of technology! +Guys, I know that you love to show off and get excited by the thought of a woman looking at you, but to be 100% honest, the brain is the most powerful sex organ. I know that you spent good money on that webcam, but that doesn't mean you have to use it indiscriminately! If she wants to see, she'll beg! Maybe she never will...maybe that's ok! +Try it without the technology first. If you are very verbal, very aural (no, I did not misspell that...look it up!), and have a decent imagination, I VERY much doubt that you will need anything more. +There are plenty of voyeuristic women out there if you find that you feel the lack of a look...but try it without first, just to check! There is something about the imagination that makes us get, um, close up and personal. Trust me on this for now. +3) On honesty! +\- Guys, we are WOMEN! We are interested in YOU, your hopes, your dreams, your fears, your heart! Share at least a bit...who knows? You might find a soulmate on the internet, in the most improbable of ways. At the very least, maybe you can make someone's day. +-Women, they are GUYS...they get overexcited and pushy at times. TELL your cyberpartner if you are feeling weird or if they are turning you off rather than on...guys aim to please, and also understand that you might have things in your real life that you might need to get a guy's perspective on...just don't bore their sox off! +-A note about bodies: +Piece of advice #1- you can have perfectly good mindblowing cybersex WITHOUT describing your equipment! A nice penis is hard, beautiful, thrilling. A nice vulva is wet, lovely, willing. Don't get into the measurements if you don't want to...you MIGHT find serious compatibility issues, and why lose a potential orgasm, or a potential cybersoulmate, over something so pedestrian? +Piece of advice #2- If you must get into the nitty-gritty, be honest! Guys, there are women out there who would be ripped to shreds by a 10-inch penis. If yours is 5 1/2, TELL her...she might be thrilled! Women, there ARE (believe me!) guys out there who will get super-excited by your A-cups...don't make up an internet body...many, many people like the velvety, erotic feel of a soft, voluptuous waist or the tickly feeling of a hairy back. You are YOU! Be proud of your body, love it, enjoy the feelings you can get and give, and never, never change it just because it doesn't match someone's mental image. +(if I sound like a crusader, maybe it's because I finally got sick of trying to be a shy, submissive girl who keeps her handbag well-organized and never, never asks for what she wants...and guess what? Once I decided I liked what I liked and that my body was a source of pleasure and that I should be grateful instead of trying to change it, I have felt a heck of a lot better about myself!) +4) On prejudice! +As far as I am personally concerned (and for those who are wondering, YES, I have talked about this with my [hopefully temporarily] out-of-comission husband), cybersex is NOT cheating!! In fact, it might well be the last resort of the super-faithful. If you are not comfortable doing the virtual deed with someone who's attached, just say no. This goes back to being honest...if they ask if you are married or connected, by all means give them the (short version of the sad and depressing) story. +A note about stereotypes- Piece of advice #1- check them at the door! You can have mindblowing cyber with someone across the world, half your age, from a different culture, with limited English, of the opposite gender, or differently abled. If it works, it works, don't limit yourself. +Piece of advice #2- free your mind, and the rest will follow! 'nuff said! +4) On preferences! +DO ask, DO tell...if you have had a history of editing your wants/ needs/ desires in real-life relationships, now's your chance!! Just make sure that you don't bore their sox off, and keep it mutual...your partner may have unmet needs, too. +A few ideas, for what they are worth- +-if you wish you had lost your virginity differently, lose it again, with your cyberpartner. +-if there's something you've always wanted to do, but you're too shy, do it. +-if you had a bad experience in your past, and IF you have a trustworthy and compatible cyberpartner, suggest re-experiencing it...let your Net boyfriend smash that guy's face in and rescue you! +5) On love! Make sure to be sweet to one another!!! Pet names, cuddling before and after, caring and love...these are what make life worthwhile, and just what might make the difference in someone's life, so don't be stingy with your heart or your hugs! +6) On c'c'c'commitment! +Consider an exclusive online relationship...aka Net BF/ GF. Cyberfidelity is NOT a dirty concept! Of course you need it bad, or you would not be loving the cyber, but if you are NOT exclusive, just tell your partners so they don't get (cyber) hurt. Sorry to tell you, folks, but cybersex can be very emotionally real. Wouldn't you really rather be monogamous in real life AND in the parallel universe of cyberspace? If your answer is ""NO WAY!"", fine...just give your partner a clue that that's where you are coming from! +7) On this brave new world! +Keep it real, or, rather, keep it virtual! For a sensitive heart there is nothing worse than having your newfound online soulmate interrupt the hot online sex by constantly complaining that they would rather be doing it in person, or that what they REALLY want is to come to your town and attack you. Real is real, cyber is cyber. Keep them separate. Appreciate what you've got. Quit wishing for more. Don't get obsess-y! Remember, taking pleasure as it comes is fine, it is the attachment to and pursuit of pleasure that leads to trouble. +================= +Wow, what a long digression! Back to my journey- +================= +""Next day both guys are IMing me at all hours of the day and night, clamoring for more where that came from. I put them off as nicely as I knew how, and Mr. Crush/ Be My Net GF didn't show up for our meeting, probably because I wouldn't ""do it"" at 3 am when I had to work early the next day. +The thing that people should know, and I had no clue about, is that I seem to be having the same emotions as if all of this had happened for real. +Fortunately, I learned how to block them, but gosh-o-gosh I honestly had no idea and feel like I just stumbled into a whole 'nother world. +In real life, believe it or not, I am a responsible adult with a busy job and a conservative lifestyle...but online I managed to break all the rules without knowing there were any and now I feel like cybervixen."" +================= +*Note on all of the above- This advice is coming from someone who DID meet her net BF...and is very glad she did! And NO we didn't cheat! But that's a story for another day! +================= +The moral of the story...cybersex ROCKS! + _...to be continued!_" +310,How To Break the Literotica Toplist,Tink4Fairy,How To,2007-05-18,2007-05-18,2022-01-04 08:30:22,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-break-the-literotica-toplist,The formula in each category.,"['Category', 'Instruction', 'Toplists', 'Writing', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Instruction']",4.63,"Have you ever wondered why some authors seem more popular than others? Why do some stories get so many views and votes, while others languish without the hope of a little red ""H""? Why does it seem easier to get into the toplists in some categories but impossible in others? Is there some secret formula for writing a popular story? +Yes, actually, there is—at least to some degree. Every category at Literotica has its own essential theme, something that a majority of readers are looking for when they click on a story. These vary, of course, but just as there are real examples to fill any stereotype, there are formulas and reader expectations that apply to stories in each category. So if you're a writer who's always wondered how to break into the ""toplists"" on Literotica, read on! +First of all, I want you to note that the following advice is about how to write _popular_ stories. I didn't necessarily say the most literary, or the best. We all know the books which make it to the NY Times Bestseller lists aren't always the most well-written or important, and so the stories that make it to Literotica's ""toplists"" aren't always, either. They just happen to appeal to the masses. This is a guide that will tell you what's popular and how to make your stories conform more to those guidelines so you'll be likely to draw in more readers. +Secondly, everything that I'm about to say is a huge generalization. Of course there are exceptions, and none of these are true 100% or even 99% of the time. All I'm doing here is trying to give you an idea of what _most_ readers want, so as a writer, if you want to cater to readers in order to write a more popular story, you can. This guideline, then, by no means encompasses all of Lit's readership, and sometimes categories are split almost 50/50, making them even more difficult to navigate and readers harder to please. +Literotica [""Toplists""](http://www.literotica.com/stories/toplists.php) consist of the first 75 highest ranked stories in each category. If your name is anywhere on that page, you will be much more likely to have your story—and any other stories you write—read by more people. If that's something you long for, then knowing what most readers want is going to help you write a story that appeals to the masses. Each category, though, has its unwritten rules and requirements, and not all of them are obvious. So, let's delve into what a majority of the readers are really looking for in each category... + **Anal** +Readers in this category want long, detailed, lurid descriptions of anal sex. I know, I know, that seems so obvious—but haven't you read stories in this category that are pretty much just a normal sex story with only a paragraph or two tacked on at the end, like an afterthought, where the anal sex actually occurs? That won't fly here if you want a popular story. Anal readers are... well... anal! They want the details, every last one, including long, preferably realistic descriptions of how it's done and how it feels. If you can do that, you'll rock the anal reader's world. Some authors on the toplist to look at: selenakittyn's [Unfolding](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=268464) series for the female's view of anal and Mindfiend's [Ass- ignation](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=176958), for excellent, detailed descriptions. + **BDSM** +True sadism and masochism aren't often topics found in this category on Literotica. Popular stories are primarily varying versions and degrees of the domination/submission aspect of BDSM. The most popular stories explore the dom/sub relationship, how it manifests and how it looks and feels. Techniques and tricks and toys (which are all part of the BDSM world) are good, but secondary to the emotion and connection between the dom and the sub. If you want two good examples of BDSM, check out [ A Good Student](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=297515) by Dr_Mabeuse or [The Birdcage](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=278612) by Ohida. + **Celebrities** +This is one of the least read categories on all of Literotica. Celebrity fantasies tend to be very hit and miss, and their success is usually dependent on whether or not your reader has a fantasy about the particular celebrity you're writing about. So the key is: write about celebrities who are popular and hot. Of course, that's a broad range, since everyone's tastes are so different. My suggestion for this category, if you want to be on the toplist, is to know your subject, whatever it is, and write a real story. Don't just write a scene where the names could be changed, and instead of Sarah Michelle Gellar, it could be _anyone_ having sex. This works best for fanfic stories, like the popular Buffy the Vampire Slayer series. Mindfiend writes excellent Buffy stories—his voice is accurate and dead on. That's key when writing in celebrities. See his [Buffy and the Corruptor](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=114761) story in the celebrity toplist for a sample. +**Chain Stories** +This is another low-read category, but the good news is, if you're involved in a chain, you'll at least get views and votes from the other chain members. If it's a big chain, you'll get lots of views and votes and most of them will be good (because the other authors won't want you to vote their story down when it comes time to post their own.) Most chain stories start with authors seeking a challenge, and they're more for writers than for readers. That said, there are good chain stories out there. So the best way to write a popular chain story is to get involved with a good chain, preferably a large one. These are found most often in the [Author's Hangout,](http://forum.literotica.com:81/forumdisplay.php?f=3) but there is a [Chain Story Directory](http://forum.literotica.com:81/showthread.php?t=402154) you can check on the Survivor board for contestants. Ordinary Lit readers are more likely to read your story if there are well-known authors in the chain, or if there is a title and theme that attracts them. It's helpful to have an original idea with broad appeal. A good example of a recent chain like this is the [Laresa's World](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/story_search_engine.php?date=&category%5B%5D=28&features=&keywords=laresa%27s&author=) series. +**Erotic Couplings** +This is the missionary position, the catch-all category of Literotica—if it doesn't fit anywhere else, writers put it here. Readers in erotic couplings are mostly looking for a good quality story with a sensual, erotic sex scenario. This is almost like the softcore porn channel of Lit—the hardcore stuff here is going to most likely get voted down. Things usually not liked in this category: m/m or f/f pairings (which should go in gay male and lesbian, respectively). ""Couplings"" in this case means hetero, if you want to write a popular story in this category. Look at [Babes in the Wood](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=266795"") by thewritemike if you want to see what's popular in this category. + **Erotic Horror** +A misunderstood category if there ever was one... Perhaps it's a pet peeve of mine, but there should be a sign on the door: No Vampires and Werewolves Allowed. Those should go into the non-human category. But unfortunately, you'll find lots of Anne Rice wannabe's here along with your ""I'm not a dog, I'm a werewolf!"" stories. True Erotic Horror should encompass both eroticism and horror, in a way that's not always titillating, but should at the very least be shocking and—here's the important part— _integral to the story._ If you can take the sex out, and still have the horror, it's not really erotic horror. Okay, down off my soapbox. How do you write a toplist story in this category? Make it scary and horrific, make sure the sex and horror are somehow related, and make it a good story. Erotic horror readers are truly looking for a story, not just titillation. A great example of this is [Scold's Bridle](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/showstory.php?id=221415) by BlackShanglan. + **Exhibitionist and Voyeur** +Exhibitionist and voyeur are two halves of the same whole, but that doesn't always translate on the page. In a popular exhibitionist story, the arousal is in the enjoyment of exposure, which is usually accompanied by a certain amount of reluctance and shame. In a voyeur story, the focus is on the secret enjoyment of watching, unseen. Both of these require a different perspective and unfortunately often split the readership. The good news is that, while readers often prefer one perspective or the other, most can and do enjoy this category from either side. So what makes for a popular exhibitionist/voyeur story? From the exhibitionist side, it's all about the exposure and the thought of being seen. There are also common devices deployed in these stories: binoculars, cameras, dressing rooms, two way mirrors, watching from a crack in the door. A popular story in this category will give the reader lots of teasing and titillation. These stories require a definite slow build and rise in the action, culminating in some sort of satisfying final climax. A good example of this is [Waking Up To Dawn](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=269300&page=4"") by en_extase. +**Fetish** +You can't please everyone in this category. To write a popular fetish story, you really have to know your subject, specialize, and focus. Fetish stories are all about obsession. Pleasing readers in this category is all about getting into the particulars. Whatever fetish you're choosing to write about (and there are so many—panties, pregnancy, fisting, water sports, pantyhose, hairy women, milk, feet, you name it!) you must focus on the minute details. Readers will find the fetishes they're interested in, and you can become quite popular if it happens to be your fetish as well and you focus enough interest on it. A great fetish story writer is [Oggbashan](http://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=129447&page=submissions""), and if you want to see an example of someone focusing on the details, check out [Marianna Lends a Hand](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=299929) by furryfan—a story about the ""hairy women"" fetish. + **First Time** +Stories in this category are primarily about the loss of virginity, and the most popular ones are about girls. Readers in this category want innocent teens being gently and lovingly led toward adulthood by a caring boyfriend. There usually isn't a huge age difference between the two main characters, and the girl should be a little hesitant, as good girls should be, but still willing and sweet. There are readers who want first time stories that involve young men as the main character as well, but innocence is still paramount and key. This category is truly about the loss of innocence, and the impact of that upon a character. A great example of this is [Goodbye La La Land](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=170395"") by MLyons. + **Gay Male** +In spite of the category name, don't assume your audience consists only of gay men. They aren't the only people reading this category—there are many bicurious men out there, and believe it or not, lots of women adore this category. You have to be familiar with and know the ins and outs (ha, pun intended) of hot, sexy man-love. There's a strong, physical aspect to gay erotica, a lusty sort of passion, whether it's a story involving emotion and love, an in-depth exploration of sexuality, or a quickie in a parking lot. Whatever story you want to tell, in order to write something popular in this category, you need to make it hot, physical, and descriptive. An excellent example of something from gay male to look at is [Sweet Music ](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=232416) by Tom Collins. + **Group Sex** +A very popular category on Literotica, but in spite of the name, it really isn't about ""group"" sex, in the sense of orgies. There is the odd gangbang or swinger type of story, but really, the most popular stories here are threesomes, and it's primarily the female/female/male version that readers want. There are some male/male/female versions, but if you're going to write one of those, I'd suggest a disclaimer at the top, because there are readers out there who might be offended by the gay male aspect of such a story outside of the gay male category—and don't expect it to make it to the toplist. A popular story in this category should have two women, one man, and will suspend the reader's disbelief that jealousy and fear aren't an issue for any of the people involved in the three-way. Remember, Lit readers want a fantasy, not what might really happen in that situation. Usually these stories involve a couple who adds a third (often the wife's best friend) and leaves the reader with a warm fuzzy feeling at the end. A good example of a group sex story from the toplists is [King Size Bed](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=176708) by strickland83. + **How To** +The most popular how-to's are easily readable, humorous, contain personal examples, show the writer's personality, and are about sex. There are exceptions, of course, but if you really want a shot at the toplist in this category, you'll follow that sort of formula. You also really need to know your subject or have done your research, because if you have errors in your how-to, readers will let you know it! BatsandGlamour writes great how-to's, and his [ Breaking the Rules of Sex & Marriage](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=87314) currently sits at number one on the how-to toplist as I write this. +**Humor and Satire** +This is a tough category, because humor is such a personal experience. Everyone's idea of what's funny tends to be different, so it's hard to tell you how to ""make it funny."" There honestly isn't a formula for this one. You can't appeal to the masses. Your best hope is to write what you think is funny and then post it and cross your fingers! Your response will probably be relatively small, but people who ""get"" your sense of humor will give you positive feedback, I'm sure. I'm not even going to attempt to give you an example in this category...! + **Illustrated** +If humor is one of the hardest to nail down, then illustrated is one of the easiest. This category is very straightforward—supply realistic, sexy illustrations to complement your story. It's that simple. Okay, maybe it's not _that_ simple. It has to be a good, engaging story, and you have to be able to actually draw (or know someone who can!) With the new computer drawing programs, you might be able to circumvent that last requirement, although it seems that most people still enjoy hand-drawn work over computer-generated stuff. You can do a story with abstract images, or ones that aren't meant to be sexually arousing, if you want to, but don't expect to be on the toplists. Readers will feel cheated and invariably vote you down. One of the toplist stars in this category, Chris Cross, has a great example in [Rock Chick](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=87314). + **Incest/Taboo** +This is Lit's money-maker, as they say. Probably eighty to ninety percent of Literotica's readers come to the site specifically to read this topic. There are writers out there who, after seeing the sheer numbers this category generates, will write incest stories just to get that volume of readers! The primary ingredient in any popular incest story is (are you ready?)... love. It's true. There are very few nonconsensual incest stories and they rarely do well. +Readers of incest want to see love, and they want that bond to be so overwhelming the two (whether it's brother/sister, mom/son, father/daughter, doesn't matter) simply can't deny it—the very strength of that love is what compels them to commit such a taboo act. Yes, sexual desire, teasing, obsession, all of those are involved in the beginning, but ultimately, readers want to see the emotion driving the characters. If you can give readers that, in whatever pairing you're writing, you're already halfway there. +Another aspect of incest that you have to pay attention to is dialogue. Remind readers of the familiar bonds by having characters state them—often. Have the brother call his sister ""Sis"" or ""Sissy."" In father/daughter stories, the daughter should call him, ""Daddy,"" and in mother/son, ""Mommy"" should be reiterated (as in, ""Mommy loves her little boy..."") Without this, all you've got is another sex story. When you focus on those familiar bonds, you give the readers what they really want—the extra heat of the taboo. Just having related characters isn't enough—they have to be extremely aware of that relationship and find it arousing. That's why so often writers get their hand slapped when they write about ""in-law"" incest. Readers in this category find in-law incest to be ""cheating"" because it doesn't highlight the taboo nearly enough. +On top of that, each incest pairing has its own set of genre requirements. Brother/sister tends to be about the older sibling fulfilling the role of sexual teacher, leading the younger one into the adult world with love and knowledge. +The mother/son pairing focuses generally on a reluctant desire to give in. Mother should be full of angst over her attraction, but eventually, she finds it too much for her to deny, so she falls into a sexual relationship. There's a great deal of reluctance at first, but she ultimately finds it totally amazing and fulfilling. As with any older woman story, here or in the Mature category, the reader wants to hear about certain physical attributes—larger breasts and copious amounts of pubic hair symbolize her maturity and maternal nature, for example. +The father/daughter category tends to split on whether the reader is male or female. Women who read this category want a daddy figure, and men want the young, nubile Lolita. For the most part, the popular stories in this category should be a father lusting after an innocent, beautiful young girl, and being drawn into a sexual relationship. The girl should be teasing and tantalizing, but in fairly innocent ways—just testing out her sexuality, but still generally sweet and pure. There are physical requirements here as well. The daughter should be petite, small-breasted, and have little or no pubic hair (all which symbolize youth and virginity.) Mindfiend's [Stacy](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/story_search_engine.php?date=&category%5B%5D=9&features=&keywords=stacy&author=mindfiend) series is a good example in the incest category of the brother/sister pairing. + **Interracial Love** +The politically correct tyranny of our society today often keeps this category from going as far as it could. Still, the most popular stories in interracial remain black men and white women, with racial language playing a major role. Yes, the black man should be well-endowed, the woman usually fair-skinned and petite. If you want to know how to get into the toplists, you need to give readers what they want. In this category, it's still the stereotype. If you're going to write a less popular interracial pairing, make sure to highlight the differences and the obvious taboo in the pairing of two races and cultures. Remember, that's the titillating part for readers in this category. [Housewife Porn Star](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=260316) by karenkay is a good example of what readers are really looking for in this category. + **Lesbian sex** +Do you know the answer to the question: ""Who watches the most girl on girl porn?"" If you answered: Men! You're correct. The majority of the readers in this category are male, followed by bi-curious females, with actual lesbians bringing up the rear. So the majority of readers will be looking for stories of (legal, of course!) teen girls having gentle, exploratory sex with their friends. If you want to make the toplist, I wouldn't write about rough sex, fist fucking, dykes, butches or ass play. To write a popular story in this category, think about male-oriented fantasy porn, and you've pretty much got it. [Secret Kisses](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=200649) by stepjones is a perfect example. +**Letters and Transcripts** +The key element here is in how realistic you can get the piece to seem. The readers want to believe it's a letter or conversation that actually happened, rather than a creative piece. [My Moment of Weakness](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=250229) by RebeccaBrowning is a great example. + **Loving wives** +This is the strangest category. ""Loving"" in the title at first seems like a misnomer, because basically, this category involves some sort of infidelity. The idea, often, is that the wife or husband ""loves"" their partner _so much_ they're willing to give them anything they want—even another lover. Be forewarned, writing in this category takes a strong ego and the ability to withstand some pretty caustic criticism, because fans of this category are very vocal and opinionated, and often use the story comment sections to argue and debate their beliefs about infidelity. To write a popular story in this category, you need all the details. Readers here want to know characters' histories, motivations, all the details of their lives that led up to the infidelity, etc. and often the aftermath as well. Revenge stories are popular in this category. Usually, you're going to split your readership no matter what you do, because there are those that like the cuckold fantasy, and those who feel anything short of shooting a spouse who cheats makes the wronged partner a ""wimp."" There are authors who succeed here, though, and if you want to know what a popular Loving Wives story looks like, check out the [Fool's Envy](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/story_search_engine.php?date=&category%5B%5D=12&features=&keywords=fool%27s&author=S-Des) series by S-Des. + **Mature** +The most popular stories in this category are men with older women fantasies. There are a smaller percentage of stories that are younger woman/older man. The key to writing a good mature story is that the older partner should be comfortable in their sexuality, knowledgeable, and willing to fulfill the teacher role. For older women, there should be a physical indication that she's older—larger breasts and thick pubic hair, for example. For the older man/younger woman fantasy, the girl should be the petite, small-breasted, Lolita type. A good example of the older woman as teacher can be found in [The Process of Illumination](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=244244) by Barb36D. +**Mind Control** +The most popular stories in this category are about sexually immature males with little or no experience who dream of being able to have the power to make women fulfill their sexual desires. To write a popular story in this category, you usually need to have a male adolescent main character who can suddenly get all the popular cheerleader types who have always been mean to him to do whatever he wants them to sexually. Revenge scenarios are popular, here, too. The [Alan](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/story_search_engine.php?date=&category%5B%5D=29&features=&keywords=Alan&author=juliancoreto) series by juliancoreto is popular in this category. + **Non-Erotic** +This is a pretty self-indulgent category on a sex site. Stories here are most often about writers working out a personal demon of some sort, and those that are popular happen to coincide with the personal demons of the masses. [All By Myself](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/showstory.php?id=263039) by leapyearguy is an example. + **Nonconsent/Reluctance** +This is a complex category and, like Gay Male and Loving Wives, one that's difficult to excel in because so many readers will vote stories down simply because they don't agree with the basic premise. The readership is also split along gender lines, making it even harder to write something that appeals to the masses. This category is about power, either having it or not, and sex just happens to be the method by which it's expressed in a non-consent story. Like the exhibitionist/voyeur category, it's two halves of the same whole, but it isn't always expressed with the same perspective. Women who read and have rape fantasies want to experience a loss of control—they want to be dominated and forced. For men who read and have rape fantasies, it's about being in control, dominating, and forcing a woman to his will. The most popular stories in this category will come at the power dynamic from one of those two perspectives, and will give the reader a vicarious experience that is ""safe"" to live out in story form. [Hunted](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=223792) by furrybert is an example from the masculine perspective. + **NonHuman** +Now here is where we find our Anne Rice vampire wannabe's and ""I'm not a dog, I'm a werewolf!"" stories. Also stories about aliens, ghosts, androids, fairies, demons, catgirls, things with tentacles—you name it. If you want to write a popular story in this category, you have to have a good grasp of the genre the creature you're writing about usually lives in. For example, most vampire lovers want the dark, brooding, irresistible sort. Also, readers here want sexual descriptions involving the weird and surreal aspects of these characters, so detail is important. Yes, they want to hear about large, hairy wolfman penises and tiny, little fairy vaginas. I'm not kidding. To write a really popular story in this category, it helps to have a little bit of a fetish in one of these areas, to make the details appealing to the reader. A great example is Dirty Alice Black's [Wolf Man](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/story_search_engine.php?date=&category%5B%5D=14&features=&keywords=wolf&author=DirtyAliceBlack) series. + **Novels and Novellas** +Novels and Novellas can be split into chapters or posted whole, but most readers seem to prefer the chapters, released a day or so apart, sort of like reading a serial story. Novels and novellas implies a longer work—don't post short stories here (anything under a total length of 25,000 words, I'd say, should go somewhere else.) Any genre goes here, of course, but the most popular are the romance novels. DanielleKitten's [Saint's Quest](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/story_search_engine.php?date=&category%5B%5D=33&features=&keywords=saint%27s&author=daniellekitten) is a good example, and even won a monthly award. +**Reviews and Essays** +I know this category says reviews and essays, but reviews are less popular than essays. For essays, as with how-to, the most popular are easily readable, humorous, contain personal examples, show the writer's personality, and are about sex. Again, BatsandGlamour excels at this with [In Praise of Older Women](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=93988""). + **Romance** +This category is fairly simple to excel in, actually, especially if you've read a lot of formulaic romance novels. If you want to write popular stories here, make your characters larger than life, the situation pushing the boundary of belief with lots of adventure and conflict, have tons of sexual tension and banter between the hero and heroine before the first sex act, and make the sex more prosaic and softly done than hardcore descriptive. The number one requirement for a popular romance story, though, is some sort of Happily Ever After or Happy For Now ending. The queen of Literotica romance is DanielleKitten, and her [A Gift of Love](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=230539) is a good example of what is popular in this genre. +**Sci-fi and Fantasy** +Storytelling and world-building is the key element in this category. Writing popular stories in this genre is all about how well you can immerse the readers into your created world, whether that's an alien universe or some magical realm. Colleen Thomas wrote superb lesbian sci-fi stories, creating worlds of depth equal and beyond many professional authors. See her [The Run](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/showstory.php?id=122892) for an example. The sex in these tales is really just an incidental bonus as your readers are mostly focusing on the world you're creating. The [Danica](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/story_search_engine.php?date=&category%5B%5D=38&features=&keywords=danica&author=darkniciad) series by Darkniciad, does a good job of balancing both—great sex and great world building. + **Text with Audio** +Readers in this category are seeking a sexual experience beyond that of just reading words on the page. In these stories, you need to get to the action quickly, or at least put something in at the start to grab and hold the reader's attention. The other primary thing that makes these popular is a sexy, woman's voice reading the story. If she orgasms (or at least sounds as if she does) during the story, it's even better. Women with accents are very popular, as in [Kitten's Playtime](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=280502) by sxy_kitten and [Just For You](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=224822) by Asian Princess. These are stories that don't have an actual text to follow along with. There are popular authors who do write stories and read them in a sexy female voice, though, like the [Bluebeard's Wife](http://www.literotica.com:81/stories/story_search_engine.php?date=&category%5B%5D=39&features=&keywords=bluebeard%27s&author=selenakittyn) series by SelenaKittyn, which has proven quite popular. + **Toys and Masturbation** +This category caters primarily to men who like to see women masturbate. The most popular stories here should be female narrated, and about women. Toys and fingers and lots of detail will make the readership here very happy. [My Time Alone](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=299566) by LilacWine is a great example. +**Transsexual and Crossdressers.** +This category is almost a cross between fetish and gay male. As in fetish, detail is paramount, especially in the case of a cross-dressing story. Also, your primary readers are probably men with latent homosexual/bi fantasies that read this category who refuse to read gay male, so the pronoun ""she"" is important here, even if _she_ has a male appendage.[ My Initiation](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=234753) by cdandy is a good example of how to write a popular story in this genre. +Now, those are obviously just guidelines about what makes a story popular in any given category. It doesn't take anything else into account. If you write a story with any of the above elements so riddled with errors and human sexual positions which defy the laws of physics that your reader can't get past the first paragraph, you're going to seriously lessen your chances of getting onto the toplists. +If you already manage to write a decent story, though, and you employ the aforementioned formulas, you're going to increase your readership considerably—and probably make it into a toplist or two. Once you've made it there, you need to decide if and how you want to keep your momentum. There are writers who have made it to the toplists once or twice, and that's it. There are writers who have written hundreds of stories, whose names are all over the toplists. You need to decide which you want to be. +If you want to keep and maintain a readership, there are three more ideas I will leave you with. My first suggestion would be to write as a woman. A huge percentage of Literotica readers are male, and most of them really enjoy reading stories written by a woman (or someone they believe to be a woman.) I would also suggest never writing a story in 2nd person—1st or 3rd person is best. And my last suggestion would be to keep your readers happy—write what they like, write it well, and write it often. +\---- + _I hope this little how-to helped give you an idea of what a majority of readers are looking for on Literotica. Remember to take time to enjoy your newfound fame and all those little red H's! One last little hint... remember that the toplists are based on votes, so ask the readers to vote at the end of your story, something that looks like this: Thank you for reading! Please leave me feedback and remember to vote if you enjoyed my story!_" +311,How to Buy a New Car,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2007-03-20,2007-03-20,2022-01-04 08:30:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-buy-a-new-car,Advice on new car buying.,"['Cafe', 'Car Dealership', 'Car Salesmen', 'Erotic Cars', 'Mini-Vans', 'New Cars', 'Ordering A New Car', 'Pickup Trucks', ""Suv'S"", 'Used Cars']",,"Did you notice that the name of this article is how to buy a new car and not how to get sucked into buying an SUV, mini-van, or a pickup truck? +I love cars but I hate SUV's, mini-vans, and pickup trucks. SUV's, mini-vans, and pickup trucks are too big, too heavy, gas hogs. Okay, pickups are cool if you live on a farm or on a ranch or if you need that type of vehicle for work, otherwise, do not buy one. And SUV's have some value if you have the need to go off-road, live in the back country, and cannot possibly drive a car on the unpaved road, unless you are motoring in an Audi Quattro. Yet, how many of you who own SUV's have ever taken your vehicle off road? I figured as much. +So, why should you not buy an SUV, mini-van or a pickup truck? Because they are not as safe as cars, and the reason why they are not as safe as cars is because the Republicans, back in the '80's under President Ronnie, who should have won an Oscar for his starring role as Mr. President, duped the public by working with auto manufacturers' lobbyist in creating a legal loophole that bypassed the CAFÉ laws. +What are the CAFÉ laws? Corporate Average Fuel Economy that stipulates that the cars sold by automobile manufacturers must average, throughout their fleet of cars sold, 27.5 miles per gallon by 1985. Exempt from the CAFÉ laws were, you guessed it, trucks, ergo, the legal loophole. +Do you know what the first thing that General Motors did when they passed that loophole to circumvent the CAFÉ laws? They closed the plants that made the big, safe, body on frame, Chevy Caprices, Pontiac Bonnevilles, Oldsmobile's 88 and 98, Buick Roadmasters, and Cadillac Fleetwood Broughams. Why? Because those cars cost more to build than the shit that they threw together calling them SUV's, mini-vans, and pickup trucks, GM made a fortune. +And those mini-vans and SUV's that you people put your beloved children in are, yep, right again, trucks. Did you know that trucks are not as safe as cars? Why? Because trucks do not have to adhere to the same set of safety laws that cars must. Trucks, until just recently, did not have to have head restraints, side impact beams, or gas tanks relocated so that they were not behind the drivers' seat, blow up in a crash, and douse the occupants with gasoline. +All of those rollover crashes that you read about where people are thrown from their SUV's or out the back door of their Chrysler mini-van, which has since been fixed, opens and bounces junior along the highway or the roof caves in and dents your head just enough to kill you, well that is your lawmakers not protecting you but lining their pockets instead with free vacations and other perky gifts given to them by the auto industry. Trucks, as do cars, do not have to have doors that, once locked, will not pop open. Whereas a car roof must hold 1 ½ times the weight of the car on it's roof, trucks only have to hold as much weight as two cases of beer, which is why their roofs collapse in an accident. +You don't believe me? Just go to a junk yard. Do you see that crumpled up piece of metal that looks like an erector set gone bad? Yeah, that was a mini- van. Nice, huh? Trust me; anyone sitting in that piece of shit did not survive that accident. +""Hey, Freddie, what is erotic about buying a car, anyway? Did you forget that this is Literotica?"" +Cars, not SUV's, mini-vans, and pickup trucks, are rolling erotica. Whether it was Elvis's pink Cadillac, the Beatles' psychedelic Rolls Royce, Janis Joplin asking the Lord to buy her a Mercedes Benz, the Beach Boys singing about their GTO and the Chevy 409 or the 50's hit, Hot Rod Lincoln, cars are erotic. What about the sports cars from Italy, such as, Maserati, Lamborghini, and Ferrari, now those are erotic exotics? And who would not want to be seen pulling up to an expensive nightspot getting out of a 16 cylinder, 1,000 horsepower, 253 mile per hour Buggati Veyron? Talk about erotic, if you were a guy pulling up in that 1.4 million dollar car, you'd have your choice of gals or if you were a woman pulling up in that car, you'd have me. +""Welcome to Chez Exorbitant's valet parking. I will park your Buggati for you?"" +""Not on your life, pal. I'll park my own damn car."" +For me, put me in the driver's seat of a Mustang Cobra 500 coupe, orange, with black racing stripes, black wheels, and a six speed transmission. Man, I can't believe this is 2007 and not 1967 all over, again. Suddenly, I feel like Mark Donahue reincarnated. Now, this is what Carroll Shelby and Lee Iacocca had in mind when they teamed up over the Mustang to create the Shelby Cobra. +You just have to look at the two-door convertibles, such as, the Mazda Maita, Porsche Boxster, Chevrolet Corvette or the Dodge Viper to understand what the designers were thinking about when they designed those low slung, sexy cars. +""Honey, I don't understand how having sex with me three times a day helps you to design the interior of a Mercedes CL 600?"" +And what about Oscar Meyer's wiener mobile, now if that vehicle is not an erotic phallic symbol on wheels, then nothing is, and phallic symbols are, yes, erotic. Some think that a Checker Marathon taxi cab is erotic while others find the Mini Cooper erotic, no matter, what I am attempting to do here is to help you buy your dream car, be it an erotic vehicle or a practical vehicle. Do you remember those big station wagons back in the '60's with the shag carpeting and mood lighting? That was erotic, especially if you were taking one of those to the drive-in with Becky Sue. Hey, you may like your car so much that you may want to have sex in it or sex with it. Now, there's a story. +""I was on my knees in the driveway with my ass up in the air as he slowly backed up the driveway until the exhaust pipe of the Lexus 430SC convertible penetrated me anally. It felt so good, so hot, that I thought I had blown a gasket. Just to be fucked by my automobile was like no other experience I have ever had. I was blowing out exhaust fumes for a week."" +""The court remands this woman in the custody of the state for 30 days observation."" +Besides, you cannot turn on your television without seeing a new car ad with some sexy woman behind the steering wheel or sitting in the passenger seat. If you don't believe me, just go to an auto show if you doubt that new cars are not about sex. Sex sells and scantily clad, pretty women sell cars. Do you remember all of those X-rated calendars that they had hanging in the full- service gas stations, when they had full service gas stations and the stations were owned by Joe or Bob or Ed and before they were owned by Muhammad, Habbib or Ali Babba? Additionally, you can tell a lot about people by the cars that they drive. Unfortunately, that is, yet, another story for another time. +""Hey, did you see the guy driving the Yugo? You can tell he's not getting any sex."" +At one time or another, starting with Dinah Shore with Chevrolet, every celebrity has stepped in the shoes of a sales representative and pitched a car to the public. ""See the USA in your Chevrolet."" From the Nash Rambler to the Volkswagen Beetle to the Brinklin to the DeLoreon, cars and sex have unified in creating a need and an image, an erotic one at that, to sell cars. We Americans are in love with our cars and have had an ongoing love affair with the automobile since Henry rolled out the first Model T. Now, what part of love is not erotic? +Nonetheless, no matter if your dream car is designed to pick up chicks, if you are a guy, or guys, if you are a chick or whomever, if you are gay or lesbian, or if your dream car is designed to drive back and forth to work, haul the kids to soccer games or to run to Wal-Mart, this how to story should help you to buy a new car. +That's right, new car. This article is written for new car buying and not used-car buying. The reason for that is simple. Unless you know the previous owner, I do not trust buying a used car from a dealership or from a private seller. There are way too many variables that can cause you to buy a lemon. There are still too many flood cars sitting in used car lots throughout the United States with transferred titles from Louisiana and Mississippi. +""Hey, look, Honey, I found a fish in my engine compartment. I wonder how it got in there."" +The first step to buying a new car is to remove sex from your purchasing plan. That's right, get that girl wearing the mini-skirt and low-cut blouse out of your car and out of your head. Seriously, that red Mustang may attract babes, but did you forget that you are married with children? Hey, a mini van can be sexy, kind of, not really, not at all, you are screwed, Dude, if your dream car is a Plymouth Voyager or a Honda Odyssey. +Decide on which car you want and stick with it. Believe it or not, this is the most difficult part of buying a new car, making a decision which make and model to buy. So many people change their mind in mid-sale, flip flop because they think this one is on sale or the dealer has the exact color that they want on the lot for the price they can afford, only in a different make and model. +Pick the make and the model and do not allow the salesperson to change your mind or to bait and switch you. Yet, before you amble down to the dealership, buy a book, like Edmunds new cars or you can do this on line, too, at their web site, and go through the options picking out the color, the interior, and the accessories noting all the prices. When you have your dream car priced out, take your list to the dealer, and tell him what you want to pay for the car. If he does not want to sell you the car for what Edmunds tells you to pay for the car, get up and start walking out. He will stop you before you reach the door. +""Hey, while you were walking towards the door, my sales manager came over and gave me the high sign. He has accepted your offer of $100 over invoice and not the $2,000 over manufacturer's sticker that I wanted."" +Next, never buy a car off the dealer's lot. In case you were not paying attention, allow me to repeat this. Never buy a car off the dealer's lot. Oh, trust me, they will tell you that it is cheaper to buy a car that his been sitting on their lot for weeks or for months, but it is not. They will try and convince you to buy that car that has been sitting there all winter. Why? Because they have been paying finance fees to have that car sitting on their lot in the hopes of selling it. The longer that car has sat there, the more that car has cost the dealer in overhead and the more the dealer must ask for it. Moreover, the dealership is giving their sales staff more incentive, ergo commission, when selling cars off the lot. The salesman will try and dissuade you from ordering a car because he will make more commission when you buy off of his lot. Order the car. Let me repeat that because this is really important. Order the car. +Most people do not know that you can order a car and those who do know that they can order the car do not order the car because they do not want to wait the 8 weeks for the manufacturer to make the car; they want it now. Fewer than 5% of all new cars sold are ordered vehicles. Besides getting the color that you want, you can pick and choose the options that will really make your car not only last longer but also perform better. The good items that improve the performance and/or durability of a car are never found on a car that is already sitting on a dealer's lot nor will you ever find that special custom color. +Dealer lot cars do not have sport suspensions, posi-traction, heavy duty brakes, heavy duty suspensions, engine oil and transmission oil coolers, wider wheels, performance rear end gear ratios, and performance tires nor will they have the really good colors that will make your car stand out from all the other Chevy Impalas or Toyota Camry's. Dealers' cars only come in black, blue, red, white, and silver. You want a gold, green, purple, yellow, or an orange car? That's a special order. +I'll give you an example. One of the best cars on the road is the BMW 3 series. Now, I dare you to go to any BMW lot and find a new BMW with a sport package. What is a sports package and why do I want it? Well, if you are buying a 335, the sports package is only $400 more and if you are buying a 328, then the same sports package is $1,200. And what you get for that additional $400 or $1,200 are two Recaro seats, wider wheels, better suspension, and better tires. Now, if you were to duplicate that package after you bought the car, well, just the Recaro seats would cost you $3,000. You will only find that package on an ordered car or on a car that was previously ordered by a customer and cancelled. +Matter of fact, if you are one of the lucky few buying a Bimmer, you can order a new car right from the factory. Once they make your car, BMW will pay your airfare and hotel stay to go to Germany to drive your car around before they ship it home to you. Moreover, most BMW dealers in the United States will not discount the car, but if you buy it in the mother land, they will discount it 7%. Now, 7% of 40,000 is $2,800, which more than pays for your trip to Bavaria. +It will take approximately 8 weeks for the manufacturer to make your special ordered car but you will receive a car exactly how you wanted it. And, surprise, it is cheaper to order a new car than it is to buy a new car from a dealer's lot. Why? Because an ordered car is like a consignment vehicle, the dealer never takes ownership of the car. The automobile passes from the manufacturer to you, the customer and the dealer does not incur any additional overhead in finance fees that they must recoup and pass along to you in the price you pay for the auto. +When is it a good time to buy a car? Today or tomorrow, it does not matter which day. Oh, they will tell you President's Day or the end of the month when the salesman are struggling to make their quotas or when the manufacturers are offering rebates. Nope. Not true. Whether you order your new car today or tomorrow, unless there is a price increase, you will pay the same price. +What do you need to order the car? All you legally need is $100 as a deposit. The dealer will ask you for a $1,000 or a $500 deposit, but all that is required under the law is $100, so do not give them a free loan of your money for two months. Besides, if something was to happen, you lost your job or if you were suddenly unable to afford the car, you may lose your deposit. I'd much rather lose $100 than $1,000. +Sure, if you are in the market for a Cadillac Seville and if Cadillac is having trouble moving Sevilles, then that is your lucky day because the manufacturer may have instituted a rebate program that the dealer will pass on to you, if you know it exists and if you ask for it. Some manufacturers' incentive plans can be as much as $5,000. Again, you can check the Edmunds web site to find out which manufacturers are offering what incentive programs and how much they are offering. +Should I trade in my old clunker? No! In case you missed that. Allow me to rewrite it. Never trade in your old clunker. Whatever you get by selling it to someone is more than the dealer will give you. Yeah, but the dealer offered me $1,000 for my junk box that is worth $100. Sure, and instead of giving you the 7-10% customary discount that he would have given you had you not traded-in your car, which, depending on the price of the car, is anywhere from $1,400 to several thousand dollars, he will gladly give you $1,000 off the retail list price of the car. +Even if you sold your old clunker for $100, you'd still be ahead because not only will you be $100 richer, but also you will have received your 7-10% discount on the purchase of a new car. +Lastly, whatever the dealer is selling, do not buy it. They will try and sell you Scotch Guard for your interior, rust-proofing for the car, alarms, and warranties. All of these items add to the purchase price. You do not need it. As a rule, if it does not come with the car from the factory, do not buy it. +Now, those that already are burdened with SUV's, mini-vans, and pickup trucks, set them on fire, collect the insurance money and reread this story to find out how to buy a car. +Good luck with your new car. Oh, you don't have to thank me. Just a 5 vote for my story and a nice comment is good enough for me." +312,How to Buy a Sex Toy - FOR MEN,Noira,How To,2011-02-01,2011-02-01,2022-01-04 08:30:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-buy-a-sex-toy-for-men,The male masturbator-centric version.,"['Fleshlight', 'Male', 'Masturbate', 'Orgasm', 'Pocket Pussy', 'Prostate', 'Vibrator']",4.11,"_Author's note: This is for you, anonymous!

Because there's a solution for every problem, and the problem of being plain and sick of ordinary jerking off and the secondary problem of being too hideous, fat, picky, drunk, addicted to video games, busy, only attracted to Asian hermaphrodites, wearing ugly plaid, nocturnal, sparkly, married to someone who doesn't put out, or gay to find a woman is a problem experienced by many men currently among the living. Because let's face it: either she's too picky, you're too picky, or a myriad of other things all cumulating in an essay on human sexuality, which wasn't why you came here. +You wanted to get off. +And you're sick of using your hand! +The personal topic of male masturbation is one experienced by likely many who visit this site, searching stimulation amidst the masses of literary works and quick to the point stroke-fics cluttering up Literotica. It's just you, your hand, and a bottle of lube. You know how to get satisfaction! But it's just not satisfying anymore! +BUT THAT'S OKAY BECAUSE you just need a sex toy, that's all! As great as Rosie Palmer and her five sexy daughters are, there's only one thing left to do. +HOW TO BUY YOUR FIRST SEX TOY—for men experiencing ennui, horniness, or a critical lack of a partner, or of course women experiencing penis envy. Itching, breaking, weird rashes, or STDs (sarcasm transmitted, duh) may occur. Use at your own risk. +Let's face it. Sex toys are a primarily female-centric industry. There are dildos coming out of the sex toy industry's fucking ass, and if you want something that looks like a disembodied penis that vibrates, well, you can throw a crappy porno DVD and hit twelve. This is because women have a lot harder of a time reaching orgasm, or perhaps because the male creators of sex toys have this strange fetish for vibrating disembodied cocks thrusting faster and faster into female pussies. +If you wanted a dildo, you won't have a problem. +Male sex toys are a bit more elusive. +STEP ONE - determine that this is what you want. Have you been fapping your penis raw? Have you jerked it so many times that there are finger shaped indentations in your cock? Does it take you three hours of masturbation just to come? Have you watched and downloaded every single bit of free porn available on the internet and you still can't reach satisfaction? Are you just plain and simply unsatisfied with your life? +Weigh the pros and cons. On one hand, you may need a male masturbatory aid. On the other hand, you may simply be experiencing ennui and wanderlust due to your midlife crisis. Maybe you just need a new job. +If your hand just isn't doing it and you're sure this is not because you're gay and not because you really, really want to bang a good looking woman, move on to... +STEP TWO - analysis your funds. If you are currently experiencing feelings of dissatisfaction due to the crickets in your piggybank and bats flying around in your bank account, you may not wish to dump several thousand dollars on the gold plated prostate vibrator. You can get a bullet vibe for a few bucks; you can get something to insert up your ass for a similarly cheap price. You can also spend absurd amounts of money on a really expensive ass toy. +The most well known male masturbation aid retails for approximately sixty-five dollars. If you want quality, you're going to be looking at the range between fifty to a hundred dollars. +Do you want your cock to enjoy the best? OF COURSE YOU DO. Can you afford a few thousand dollars on a masturbation machine? PROBABLY NOT. Would you rather buy a car? PROBABLY. +STEP THREE - Acquaint yourself with the various models of male sex toys on the market. You're going to find the following: artificial vaginas, artificial arses, artificial mouths, artificial hands, artificial OH GOD WHAT IS THATs, artificial inflatable women, and artificial things covered in fur and spikes. You will also find a wide variety of prostate massagers, buttplugs, and anal vibrators. Then there are the cock rings: either they vibrate or they don't. There is a significantly smaller array of male masturbators, as for the most part, your hand cannot be replaced and costs absolutely nothing. +The first category, artificial somethings, all have one thing in common: they're designed for you to thrust your hard throbbing cock in and out of repeatedly until you reach orgasm. One toy alone dominates this market: the Fleshlight. If you want cheap, you can always go the jar of peanut butter route. If you want a quality and lasting artificial something to thrust into, you're probably going to go the route of the Fleshlight. +There are, of course, other options. You can buy a silicone ass, a silicone face, a silicone stimulation of a real woman, a blow-up doll... take your pick. In the end, they're all intended for you to insert yourself into and repeatedly thrust until you reach orgasm. +One of the major deciding points in an artificial something should be how easily it can be cleaned. There are single use pocket pussies, and there are some that come apart to be easily cleaned post-orgasm. Do you want a one use novelty that looks like a take-out ramen container, or do you want something that can be reused and won't be filled with crusty dried sperm next time you indulge in a night of porn, lube, and tissue paper? It's the difference between your hand, a sock, and a condom. +Another deciding point should be, of course, transportability and discretion. The infamous Fleshlight is modeled to look like a flashlight. A real, modeled after life sex doll is not going to be so discreet. Do you want something that can be chucked into the back of your car for a camping trip without looking like you're kidnapping a rather sullen hooker? Or can you have Miss Blowmeup in your closet and feel safe that no one will ever knowwww? +Materials don't really matter quite so much in the realm of artificial pussies. Everything is likely to be made out of silicone. You won't find glass or metal here (ouch!), and you don't really have much choice. Go with silicone over the dubious 'jelly', which reminds me of the can't-hold'm toys from my childhood. Almost everything you encounter worth buying will be silicone. Do you want to thrust your quiveringly hard cock into a dubious blend of chemicals? Probably not! Go with the tried, tested, and true. +The second category of male sexual aids is of course, anal. Anal toys will not make you gay. Repeat after me: IT WILL NOT MAKE YOU GAY. A good prostate toy will add a whole new dimension to your orgasms. +Anal sex toys all have something in common: they have the weirdest names on the planet. MANGASM. Well, you wanted to mangasm all over the place anyway, right? +Make sure everything you get to stick up your tight little ass has a base, so that it won't vanish up your tight little ass. Sodomy is a fairly common household accident, if the ER has anything to say about it—and you really don't want to be rushing over to the hospital because a huge black dildo just vanished up your ass. Really, it'll be embarrassing. Toys intended for anal use will have a flared base, to keep them from disappearing. Do not just sit on a dildo. It will disappear. +Many ass toys for men will also include a ring on the end so that you can easily control its movements. Look for a toy with these features for usability. +Your options here include toys that vibrate, and toys that do not. This is a personal preference, and if you want something that vibrates, keep in mind that your options are significantly smaller than that of the female audience buying things that vibrate. Check out whether or not your toy will be rechargeable, and if not, what batteries will it require? +Otherwise, you have the choice of beads and buttplugs. Size isn't everything. Start small before working your way up to the massive, soda can wide plug with a massive flare. You don't want to hurt yourself. Hurting yourself will remove the fun. +If you get a silicone ass toy, do not use silicone based lube. Before inserting anything up your ass, involve copious amounts of lube. If there is any blood, you did not use enough lube. There should not be blood. +Again, silicone is probably your best choice for material. You want something that can be sanitized. There are also metal and glass anal toys available, and depending on your preferences, you may enjoy the solid feel of something metal in your ass. Whatever you pick, make sure it can be cleaned, and if not, pop on a condom. Especially with something that's going up your arse, you want to make sure that it'll come clean. If the sight of shit will bother you, definitely slide on a condom before any insertion play. +The third category of male sex toys is of course, things that go on your cock for sex. If you have a partner, a cock ring might be a valuable investment. But vibrating cock rings are more for her pleasure than yours. If you just want to jerk it, go with a pocket pussy, a prostate massager, or a combination. +There is of course, option four: buy a female sex toy. A vibrating bullet or egg can be used on the head of your penis, or held in your hand while you jerk it. Nothing says you can't use a penis shaped vibrator to vibrate yourself intimately if you want! And a Hitachi Magic Wand can be used by anyone, plus have the bonus side effect of being usable on a potential partner later. +There are a lot less creepy male sex toys out there, so chances are you won't run into the really, really weird ones unless you try (Baby Jesus plug, hairy toothy masturbator, etc) so check out the reviews, and buy the one you think will suit you best. Cheaper is not always better, but neither is expensive. You don't need a full life-sized doll to get off. +STEP FOUR - go and buy your sex toy! +Either hop down to a porn store, or hop onto the internet! If you want discretion, the internet is the way to go. You can shop around and find decent sales, and most adult stores will ship discreetly. Heading down to an adult store may be the more embarrassing route, but you can also pick up other interesting accessories while you're there. You do, after all, want something to provide visual stimulation too, right? +The people who work in adult stores have seen it all, so brace yourself and head on down with your dollars and a budget. They can answer questions and will probably be able to direct you to a toy in your budget. If you're shy, hit the internet. Pick your toy, pick some lube, sweet talk Rosie Palmer into sharing for one night, and get back on Literotica for the self love of your dreams! +And for the love of donuts, don't forget the lube!" +313,How To Buy Your First Sex Toy,Noira,How To,2011-01-29,2011-01-29,2022-01-04 08:30:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-buy-your-first-sex-toy,For the slightly paranoid. Warning: contains sarcasm.,"['Buy', 'Dildo', 'How-To', 'Sarcasm', 'Sex Toy', 'Vibrator']",4.44,"You're of majority and now you're just plain and bloody well sick of using that electric toothbrush as a sexual object. Let's face it: bristly spinning brushes are not intended to be objects of lust and mysterious desires of the flesh. You want pleasure, and you want it _now_. And now that you're all warmed up, your fingers just aren't going to cut it anymore. You need something bigger, something better, something that has twelve different speeds of vibration and wiggling pink appendages, something that's jelly-coated and squishy and ejaculates lubricant into your moist and waiting pussy as it pulses in beat to the tune of your iPod and makes you a sandwich. +You need satisfaction and you need it fucking NOW! +Except maybe with a few less of those pulsing, squirming appendages, and a few less spikes and _oh good Lord they make things like that to go into my what?_ +Welcome to the real world, where there's five bazillion different brands of sex toys that stimulation all twenty-seven erogenous zones on your body all _at the same time_ with spikes, bristles, wooden revolving heads, coils, and carefully applied heat, cold, liquid nitrogen and irritating techno music while Hello Kitty's head spins and vibrates to stimulate your ass. You can get them in any color of the rainbow, in fifty-seven interesting unknown chemical forms. Next thing you know, there's going to be a periodic table of ways to relieve horniness. ""Oh, good God,"" I can hear you saying to yourself as you creep away from the overwhelming list of terrifying sexual stimulants. +BUT WAIT! Don't go! +I promise they won't bite you... unless of course you happen to buy _that_ one. + **HOW TO BUY YOUR FIRST SEX TOY —** _without attempting to gouge out your own eyeballs from shock, horror, or sheer overwhelming fright, for women likely of the conservative genre, but also for anyone else who wants to buy a sex toy, or possibly just enjoys a bit of sarcasm in their how-tos._ + **Step one —** Determine that you are bloody well sick and tired of whatever you're presently using for stimulation. Kitchen sink? Done that. Bathtub? Old. Spin cycle? You caught your mother's parrot doing it. Hairbrush? Toothbrush? Face scrubber? You just don't get off on looking at bristly objects attacking your pussy while you're _trying_ to indulge in the common carnal practices known as masturbation. You need something sexier. +So go on. Throw out that DIY toy. Put it over there, off to the side, and come closer. This was the _easy_ part. + **Step two —** make sure you're financially set to buy pleasure devices. Sure, you can buy a ten dollar vibrator, but you can also buy a several hundred dollar gold plated clitoral stimulator. On one hand, quality isn't cheap. On the other hand, that's just showing off. What are you going to do, go around and brag about your new Mercedes-buzz-for-her-pleasure? If you're reading this, probably not. So go ahead, check the bank, and see how much money you have to fling around in the general direction of your crotch. +A cheap bullet stimulator can be purchased for mere dollars. Whatever your price range, there's something that will fit your needs... and in your pants. A reasonable quality toy can probably be had for under fifty dollars, and you can certainly find something workable for under a hundred. Don't throw all of your money at one really expensive toy until you know what you like. +Set aside your dollars, count up your soon-to-be-illegal-pennies and move on to step three. + **Step three —** find out what you want. +I can hear you saying ""oh god"" to yourself right now, and that's not the good moaning in pleasure and inhuman ecstasy sort of moan I hear. That, my dear, is the moan of someone who has no bloody clue what to buy. There's so many choices! So many colors! So many weird wobbly appendages that are probably supposed to simultaneously insert themselves into your anus, clitoris, tongue, and nipples all at the same time and _not all of those are even intended to have something inserted_ but due to a lack of knowledge of the female anatomy that's what the site says anyway! +But ignore all of the psycho toys for now. Maybe later you'll discover you have a fetish for male sex toys that look like they're growing fur on the outside, or that you really, really, _really_ just need that strange vibrating coil with the spikes and the lock on the end in order to get off, but chances are, you'll probably be just fine with a normal toy for now. +Don't panic, don't assume that just because they actually make those you really, really need one, and get to know what's available. +Most toys for women serve one purpose: to stimulate the clitoris, which is the only part of the female body intended solely for delivering sexual pleasure. As it happens to be such a significantly wonderful addition to the female anatomy, it is your duty (and therefore that of creators of pleasure devices) to make sure it gets used as often as possible. Others stimulate the g-spot. But they have one thing in common: they vibrate. Goodbye, stress; helloooooooooo screamy, moany, thrashy orgasmic bliss! +Some sex toys don't have any fancy functions but are merely insertable for those who find a sadistic pleasure in things that look like disembodied cocks, or more likely, simply enjoy the feeling of penetration and don't have anyone around to do the penetrating. Dildos are either fashioned in the likeness of a penis, or are designed to look as non-penislike as possible. There is a vast array of available dildos in many shapes and sizes. Some are meant to stimulate the g-spot, and others are meant to fulfill every function of a penis except for the inevitable emotional attachment. When I say _vast_ array, I mean extremely vast. Big heads, balls on the end, swirls, curves, knobs, bumpy ridges, massive, tiny, ejaculating, inflatable... +If you're looking to purchase a dildo rather than a vibrator it's best to look at what you currently use for self-pleasure. Bigger isn't always better. Pull out a tape measure and take some measurements! The materials are also important. Glass may look amazing but might be too hard. Silicone is one of the best materials but is often expensive, and you cannot use a silicone based lubricant with it. Cyberskin tears easily. ""Jelly"" is dubious and made out of unknown chemical concoctions, though it's cheap. Weigh the different options. In the end, I feel it's best to spend a bit more money for a dildo that will last a long while and is safe to insert into your body, but if you don't have the money to shell out for a silicone dildo, slip a condom on beforehand and keep the inside of your body safe! +If you will be using an insertable toy with partners, make sure that the toy can either be safely sanitized, or use a condom. Don't forget the lube! +But don't be bought in by the notion that you need penetration to feel pleasure. Most women derive most of their pleasure from clitoral abuse, and that's nothing to be ashamed of—it's perfectly normal! A rabbit will fill both the need for penetration as well as provide clitoral stimulation, but for many women, a simple bullet or egg vibrator will do the job nicely. +Examine the options. What do you want in a toy? Does it have to be whisper quiet? Rechargeable? Use only AA batteries? Waterproof? Aquamarine? Usable with a partner? Read reviews on toy review blogs to find out if the toy you're thinking of will meet your needs and do your research. Post in the Literotica forum and ask for thoughts. (Someone will tell you to buy the Hitachi Magic Wand, and not to use jelly.) A little bit of research will pay off in finding the toy that is perfect for you—I assure you exactly what you want is out there somewhere, because this is the internet. Someone's already found out that it's their fetish. +And remember: this is something personal to you. It doesn't matter what someone else thinks. Ultimately, if you find yourself absolutely lusting after a toy, go with your heart. It's going to be used on _your_ girly bits, after all, not that random forum poster's, not that review blogger's, and not mine. + **Step four —** so you've found the toy of your wet dreams. +Great! Now you have to go out and purchase said toy. Count up your nickels and dimes and hop down to the nearest adult shop. +Oh, wait, you can't do that? You don't have a nearby adult store, or you're too embarrassed, or one of a hundred other reasons why you can't just stop in at a shop that happens to sell enormous disembodied cocks for your pleasure? Well, that's okay. We're here on the internet for a good reason! Put your pennies in the bank and make an account with Paypal, or get a credit card, or some other method of transferring money across the interwebs and make way for the _online stores_. +These are pretty safe. No one's going to see you here, and you can easily shop around to find the best price for what you want. If you live in the States, with a bit of shopping you'll probably be able to get a good deal. Many stores offer free shipping for purchases over a certain cost, and have email newsletter deals to save even more money. If you don't want your toy now, a bit of time may pay off and save you a good amount of money! +Check out reviews for the stores. If you're feeling really distrustful, Amazon sells a wide variety of adult accessories. But most adult online shops will ship discreetly for no higher cost... just check their FAQs or shoot them an email to ask how the package will be shipped, and what will appear on your credit card statement if discretion is an issue. Adult sellers are generally quite sympathetic in regards to the need for privacy and go out of their way to make sure no one knows that innocent brown box contains a collection of techno-colored vibrating _things_. +If you live out of the States, shopping around online might be a bit more difficult. Often shipping internationally is insanely pricy, and it can be difficult to find websites that ship from your country. Most sites will ship internationally, though, and it's just a matter of finding one that will. +Toss your toy in the card, check out, and wait until it ships. Presto! Pleasure in a box, in the mail, just for you! You've bought your first sex toy, and you didn't even have to take that humiliating step of going into a porn store. Now if you can just convince that postman that this is a porno and not real life..." +314,How to Charm Panties off,leggydragonlady,How To,2006-06-05,2006-06-05,2022-01-04 08:30:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-charm-panties-off,Gentleman shows how to charm the schoolmarm.,"['How To', 'Mature', 'Panties', 'School Teacher']",4.55,"**How a White Haired Gent Charms the Panties off the Schoolmarm** +Who knew she was so rowdy? +First off, let me reassure you that being a schoolteacher has a bad reputation. Women who teach school are not the prudes that most perceive them to be. We simply have to behave like that because our profession demands it. However, there are times in our lives when we relax enough to allow our true selves expression. I would like to tell you how to charm the panties off any woman who appears to be cold and distant. +To begin the seduction, one need only apply some intelligence to the situation. Women love to have their intellect engaged. It shows that you have a brain between your ears, and that you think (if only occasionally) about something other than sex. The gentleman of whom I am thinking as I write this manual took a book to a crowded pub on a Friday evening as he went to eat his solitary dinner. A book can signify many things when you are eating alone. It can signify that you are single and not interested in watching others flirt during dinner. It can signify that you are temporarily alone due to business travel (your own or a partner's), or it can provide a topic for conversation with another person who is similarly eating alone. +This lovely man was not pushy or overly forward. He responded to conversational gambits by the bartender and myself, but bided his time and sipped his beverage. We ate dinner together – two strangers sitting at the bar, because sitting alone at a table on a Friday night is very depressing. We discussed our geographic locale, our occupations, and our children in a desultory fashion. Dinner was there to be enjoyed, and having a conversation with someone else was a pleasure. He engaged my intellect in our discussion of current events, sports and the book he had brought with him to stave off loneliness. +The materials needed for seduction of the schoolmarm are basic. A book, a brain, the crowded pub in a location that has a lot of traffic, and the ability to put them together for your own benefit. Craig used all of his materials well. He also had a killer smile and sparkling blue eyes indicating a devil-may-care attitude. I do not understand why that is so exciting for women, but I confess to falling for it often throughout my life. +First, Craig never mentioned his raging erection or his need for sex. Guys, it is assumed that you need sex. We do understand that. We simply do not want to hear about it unless we know you intimately. The realization that sex does not have to be verbalized is important to the charm factor. The goal here is to charm the panties off the school marm. +Secondly, Craig was polite and used his table manners while dining alone. Gasp! There are people who appreciate good table manners. Women expect that men will use their manners in public settings. If you are not polite in public, you will express yourself with greater disregard for polite conventions in private. Therefore, manners are an essential tool to charming a school marm. +Third, Craig was interested in the current events portrayed on the television at the bar, but not to the exclusion of conversation with an attractive woman who happened into the bar to dine alone on that fateful Friday evening. He understood references to the current darling of the NBA, one LeBron James, who I had had the pleasure of watching as a young man in our hometown. Yes, there are women who appreciate a well-played game of basketball (or football or baseball), who might not wish to discuss it ad infinitum, but who are at least conversant with the basic points. Craig understood that I appreciated basketball, but that it was not a driving force in my life. Talk about it, but be prepared to vary the topic of conversation to something else. Current events can become too heated in these days of controversy about the war in the Middle East or any of the Bush policies or procedures. There's always someone who dislikes what is going on – and the goal is to get the school marm out of her panties, not up on her soapbox! +Fourth, Craig was responsible. He did not drink to excess, nor encourage me to do so. While getting a woman inebriated may be a good ploy for seducing the college girl down the corridor, it is frowned upon by women of mature years. We all have to drive home afterwards. Drinking is not responsible if one has a distance to drive before reaching home. Craig was also responsible financially. He did not grab for my tab or assume that conversation meant he was to be responsible for my meal. A quiet offer and refusal, and he was content. +Next, Craig was respectful. He did not dominate the conversation, or intimate that conversation was a precursor to satisfying his erection. Please see the first step above for a reminder that it is not necessary to talk about your erections. It is lovely to know that you are responding to our femininity, but please keep the details to yourself. This is not the time or place for measurements (we really do not care) or circumcision status. Your goal here is to charm, and flirt and be nice. +As we left the pub, Craig asked if he might hug me goodbye. A hug, I can hear you thinking? Adult women are starved for simple affection. Rarely are we offered a conversation or a hug or having our hand held in a movie. The proffered hug was very nice, and exhibited that erection that men love to discuss and women wish to discover for themselves. It was quite titillating. I found that my panties were suddenly damp. +At long last, Craig bent his head and brushed gossamer kisses across my lips, my face and my neck. Nirvana. I was so glad that he did not attempt a tonsillectomy with his tongue, that I found myself responding to a far greater extent than I would normally have done. We walked into the darkened car park hand in hand, occasionally stopping to exchange another lovely soft kiss. +When we arrived at my car, Craig unlocked the door for me and checked to make sure there was no one hiding inside. Many large cities these days have stalkers waiting in car parks, and I was glad to see that Craig was extending his courtesy to ensuring my safety. However, it seemed that Craig had something more in mind than my safety. He continued to kiss me until my knees weakened. At that point, Craig opened the rear door and slid me inside, following after. He never stopped kissing me. His hands were gently smoothing my back and my hair, and running up and down my arms, but not causing alarm by groping my breasts or my bottom far too early for my comfort. +As we continued to kiss in the rear seat of my car, I realized that Craig was pulling me closer to him. In fact, he asked me to sit on his lap to prevent him from twisting and injuring his back. I thought that was a reasonable request, and moved to sit on his lap. His kisses became deeper, stronger, more passionate. My hands were twined into his thick white hair, and his were stroking my arms and back. The kissing had gone on for probably 30 minutes by this point, and I was feeling very warm. I slid my blazer off, and dropped it on the front seat. Craig responded by sliding his hands up my ribcage and palming my breasts, while continuing to kiss me. +How lovely to have someone else's hands caressing me I thought, just before my brain ceased to function. Craig's hands were gentle, kind, and used very little pressure. He did not grab and twist nipples to inflame a barely ignited passion. He understood that blowing gently on a flame would make it burn hotter and brighter. His hands roamed my upper body while his lips continued their dance around my face and neck. I squirmed on his lap, encountering that raging erection that Craig had still not mentioned. I moaned, just as Craig decided to dispense with my bra. Off it came, and was dropped on top of my blazer in the front seat. I was topless in the car park, sitting on the lap of a man I had encountered several hours earlier as a stranger in the pub. +Craig's hands began a slow exploration of my legs. I tend to take very good care of my legs and wear skirts when leaving the house. Today was no exception to that rule. I was wearing stockings and hold-ups under my skirt, and Craig rapidly discovered this for himself. He traced the welts of my stockings with one finger while continuing to stroke my upper body with his other hand and kiss my face. +When Craig reached the tops of my thighs, I moaned again, and my legs fell open for his journey of discovery. He found that my panties were absolutely soaked, and gently removed them, tucking them into his blazer pocket. His fingers (nicely manicured and smooth) gently spread my lower lips, and touched ever so softly my wet and glistening petals. Craig's hands were patient, and his kisses, while passionate had still not left my face and neck. He gently stroked and smoothed my skin while kissing me so that my brain would not awaken. Oh how lovely to have a man touching my nether lips, and how well he did so. His touch was so gentle and exploratory. He discovered where I liked to be touched, and with what degree of pressure. I was very aroused. +Finally, Craig asked if I would mind if he tasted my juices, which were flowing steadily. I was hesitant. I did not know this man, and he wanted to taste my very liquid center. The hesitation lasted but a moment, when he lay me back on the seat and knelt beside me. He looked at my nearly naked body (I was still wearing the stockings and hold ups) in quiet enjoyment. His hands never stopped stroking my body, searching for areas that would make me purr with pleasure. He bent to my center, and began to lick ever so gently at my lower lips. His kisses resembled those he had earlier showered on my face and neck. Soft and gossamer, his lips and tongue encountered my well-trimmed pubic area. His hands continued to stroke any area of my skin that he could reach, further inciting my passion. I wanted to orgasm hard for this man who offered so much of himself without asking anything in return. He began to probe my vagina with his tongue, kissing me steadily with the passionate kisses earlier experienced by my mouth. My passion was burning white hot, and I was ascending to the pinnacle of my desire. +My bottom was cradled in the hands of this man who was giving me such pleasure. His hands slid lower, and fingers probed tiny holes, groping for access. Would I allow his fingers access to my pussy? Would I even let him finger my bottom? I cared not at this point, as his tongue gently kissed my clitoris, bringing me ever closer to orgasm. I sat on the edge of the seat, with my knees over Craig's shoulders as his hands plundered the holes in my bottom and his tongue urged my clitoris to orgasm. My hands were stroking my breasts in that slow, gentle fashion women find so erotic. I was on the verge of orgasm when Craig suddenly leaned forward and kissed my lips allowing me to taste my own sexual flavor. I sucked his tongue into my mouth, and his fingers into my bottom orifices and squeezed as the orgasm raged through my body with the energy of a freight train. As I exploded into orgasm, Craig gasped. He had come along with me with no stimulation other than experiencing my orgasm. +He kissed me gently, straightened his disheveled clothing, and slipped out of my car. I dressed myself for the long drive home, and only then discovered that Craig retained my tiny silk panties. This then is the manner in which to charm the panties off the school marm. I hope that if you follow my instructions, you will enjoy many sexy assignations with women who will enjoy your charm, only to lose their panties." +315,How To Cheat On Your Spouse,JRob,How To,2002-01-03,2002-05-22,2022-01-04 08:30:28,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-cheat-on-your-spouse-ch-1,1.

She has no place to go, let her blow, let her blow, let her blow."" +I caught a bit of the holiday spirit on the way to the mall and began humming the Christmas song while driving down the highway. Somewhere along the way I changed the words a bit and laughed. +Don't I wish! I mean, my secretary was a cutie, and yes, she would have made an excellent partner in the sack. But there was a little problem: I was married with three children, and the little woman at home frowned upon marital transgressions. I know that for a fact, because it wasn't all that long ago that she caught me in the act. +That was not a pretty scene. After some time and counseling, we mended fences, but I got the ultimatum: even flirting with another woman was cause for her to give me the pink slip, kissing her, my kids, our house and most of our bank account, goodbye. +I took those words to heart, and have been a model husband for more than half a decade. +Then there are guys like Artie, a manager in the Accounting Department at the company where I'm employed. On the outside he's a pleasant enough guy in his early 30s with a wife and two lovely children. Behind the scenes, though, he's a wolf. A certifiable louse. +He's strayed more times than a barnyard cat, and somehow has never been caught. +I thought of this while driving to the mall, and given my past history, decided to ask him how he does it. I didn't think he would answer, but it wouldn't hurt to ask. +So I did. +Much to my surprise, Artie was agreeable, and over a few beers at our local Irish pub, we spoke about the ins and outs, so to speak, of cheating on one's spouse. What follows are his frank answers to my probing questions. +Q: We've talked in the past about some of your, well, dalliances, and I wondered if you could answer a few questions, anonymously, of course. +A: Ask away! +Q: Do you love your wife? +A: Of course. She's a darling, the mother of my children, and a great friend too. +Q: Then why...? +A: (Interrupting) Why do I, uh, stray? +Q: Uh huh. +A: That's a complicated question. Probably something for a psychologist or psychiatrist to probe. But if you drill down and look for an answer, I'd say it's the excitement. The thrill of the conquest. The danger. +Q: Life on the wild side, eh? +A: Yes. I think that's it. +Q: Do you fear being caught, being found out? +A: Of course I do. I think about it all the time. But something happens when I smell the challenge of a conquest, and, stuff happens. +Q: Often? +A: Guess that depends on your definition of often. +Q: Okay. Give me a number, then. You've been married about 8 years, right? How many, uh, liaisons, have your had? +A: (After some thought) There have been nine women since I got married, but three of them I knew before Julie and I were married and we sort of got together again for little flings after my marriage. +Q: When was the first? +A: I'm embarrassed to say the weekend after I got married. I ran into an old girlfriend at the grocery store, of all places. We talked for a while, stopped for coffee, and after sitting and talking in her car for a while she went down on me. It was fantastic. I think it was a real turn on for her to get me to cheat on my wife so soon after getting married. It was the only time we did it, but it was an unbelievable, exciting happening. +Q: No regrets? +A: Absolutely. I shook all the way home. I had to stop at a fast food place on the way home to clean myself off, wash her smell away. I mean, my Julie would sometimes surprise me when I got home with a quick bj before supper, and that's all I needed! So I stopped and washed myself off just in case. +Q: Did she? +A: What, when I got home you mean? No, but later that night the sex was fantastic! I kept thinking about having two different women in the same day. +Q: What is your secret to keeping these, uh, dalliances, secret? +A: Obviously, the biggest thing is to be discreet. You never know whom you might run into, or where, so it's important to be smart about where you will meet, how you can explain if stumbled upon at, say, a public place like a restaurant. And it's especially important to keep track of where you are supposed to be and when. +Q: You mean an alibi? +A: Definitely. +Q: Say more... +A: Well, receipts are bad, unless they serve a purpose. By that I mean, if you are going to Morton's Steakhouse and an item shows up on your credit card bill, it would be easy for Julie to open the bill and question me on what I was doing at an expensive restaurant. I mean, the company isn't generally going to pay for me to take a client or someone there. So, why in the world would it be there? It would be hard to explain that away. +Q: So how do you charge things then? +A: Cash is king. But sometimes a credit card is necessary, like at a hotel or that fine restaurant. I have one of those addresses at a Mailboxes, Etc., where I receive my ""special"" credit card bills. I pay they with postal money orders so there isn't a cancelled check. +Q: Brilliant! +A: Just common sense. But sometimes a credit card can verify where I've been, and that can be just as important. For instance, I've been seeing this married girl in Pittsburgh. Now that's about five hours from here, too far to drive up and back in the same day. So I will schedule a business trip there. Stay the night, and invite her over to the hotel for breakfast and then a little morning delight before heading back home. It works for her, it works for me. +Q: You just mentioned the word married. I would think you would be after single women? +A: Not really. Married women are best. Single women can be all sorts of problems, I know it first hand. I've been with a couple single women but over time things get more serious and all of a sudden you have the possibility of getting a phone call at home and that's nothing but trouble. Married women, on the other hand, have a lot to lose if our relationship is uncovered. Both of us stand to lose. So they are careful, I am careful, and that works best. Plus, the sex becomes really great in two ways: first, the excitement of having another man's wife. Second, you do for her what her man can't. Another distinct turn on. +Q: What other ""secrets"" do you have? +A: Just a few. Never, ever, neglect your spouse. They have an innate ability to sense when something is up. So make sure you give them the time and affection they need. Be caring. And that shouldn't be a problem if you love her. I know I love my wife dearly. Be sensitive to her needs. Be there for her. +Q: Those are all hints about your spouse. But what about, well, stuff outside your marriage. +A: I'm getting to that. And that's the point. You have to take care of business at home or else anything else will be easily detectable. You wife is, after all, your wife. Presumably you love her. I love mine. +Q: But...? +A: Thinking of other relationships, outside marriage, some things are obvious. +Q: Don't take the other woman home? Don't call out her name in bed? +A: (Smiling) Now you are catching on. Don't have lipstick on your collar! But seriously, no biting. It is very hard to explain a hickey on your neck or butt or somewhere. And use a condom, you don't want to be bringing anything home with you! Have an alibi. Witnesses are good that way. As I said before, don't leave a trail of evidence. +Q: That sounds a like a bit of contradiction. Don't be seen, but have a witness. +A: Good point. Different strokes for different folks. What I mean is, you don't want to be scene with a woman in an improper setting. If you are out dancing at your country club with the ""other woman"" in front of your wife's friends, that's suicide. But if you are dining downtown and aren't all over each other in a booth, if someone you know happens to see you it's merely a common sense situation. +Q: How so? +A: First off, you tell your wife you are having dinner with a client, you don't necessarily say where. She has your cell phone number, so if she has an emergency or something and calls, you are available. Second, if someone does happen to see you, introduce the woman and get the reason for the dinner out front right off. For instance, ""Hi Bill, I'd like you to meet Dana, who represents the XYZ Company."" Of course, you have to make sure Dana knows how to play the part. Don't make her a computer salesperson if she doesn't know a hard drive from a CD ROM or something. Rehearse the part if you are going to be out on the town. Be smart about it. +Q: What else? +A: Never over commit with the ""other"" woman. Don't promise her you will leave your wife. Don't tell her things that aren't going to happen. Be up front about the situation. Now of course, if it's a one-night stand, bets off. You should probably assume another identity or make sure you don't leave any telltale signs of whom you really are. But if you are in a relationship with a married woman, for instance, know what she needs and make sure that's what you give her. If she needs a new relationship, and that's supposed to be you, then cut it off. Otherwise you are walking on thin ice. +Q: Okay. So let me get this straight. First off, make sure you take care of things at home as to not create any suspicion. Do not neglect your spouse or her needs. Second, be smart, use common sense. Third, be discreet. Fourth, watch where and how you pay for things. Fifth, an attached woman is a better prospect for a discreet liaison than a single woman. Sixth, take care to avoid incriminating marks, like hickeys, lipstick, matches, receipts, or, worse case, STDs. +A: Absolutely. And there are a few more things. How about seven, have an alibi for where you are going and what you are going to do there. Eight know your partners, your wife and your ""friends"". You don't want to miss an anniversary to be with the ""other"" woman, it would be a dead giveaway to your wife that something was wrong. Likewise, if your friend becomes too possessive, no matter how good the sex is, you have to cut it off before she gets too serious. +Q: Any others? +A: A couple old standbys. Don't go changing your looks all of a sudden. I know this one guy who went on a diet, changed his hairstyle, bought a convertible, all to impress the girl...only to get caught in the act at a local motel by his wife on their first rendezvous. It was obvious he was up to something. +Q: Anything else? +A: How about this: be careful to dispose of any evidence. Love note are wonderful to get, but have to be destroyed! Can you imagine me trying to explain how a love note from another woman happened to get into my briefcase? +Q: A definite no no! +A: You have that right! By the way, do you remember Jeff Atkins at our Chicago office? He's the perfect example of this. His wife found intimate photos of him and his girlfriend on their laptop. It was impossible for him to explain that away. +Q: Oh no! I guess not. That goes back to being careful, being discreet, being smart, right? +A: That's the long and the short of it. +Q: Well, I appreciate your candor. +A: Hey, as long as this is anonymous, no problem. +Q: Well, it is, of course. I have to ask you, though, any regrets? +A: (Thinking)...yes, absolutely. I feel like a bastard at times, especially after a rendezvous. The guilt can be tremendous. I feel like trash, and I recognize I probably am in lots of ways. But I rationalize it, I guess. I do love my wife, I try and make her happy. But there is this little voice inside which drives me toward women and, well, there are some great things that happen. +Q: Like? +A: The variations in lovemaking. Deborah, for instance, gives the best head in the world, and she does it in cars, in my office, wherever. She's amazing, she gets off on it. And Kelly loves it up the ass. Her husband has never had her their, yet I have. I took her anal virginity! I've done it doggie style over her own bed. I'm really not trying to brag, but I've done it in great locations, all places imaginable, you name it. It has been great sex. I love it and think I'll keep doing it. +Q: As long as you don't get caught. +A: Absolutely. And if it comes to that, in the words of a former President, deny, deny, deny. +Some insightful comments from a guy who should know. A guy who cheats and gets away with it. It's not for everyone, it's not for me, but if you are going down that path recognize that for every bit of excitement there's a whole lot of guilt and concern and danger. +Maybe that's the whole reason he's so good at it. + +" +316,How to Cheer for Your Favorite Team,dirtyjoe69,How To,2006-12-25,2006-12-25,2022-01-04 08:30:31,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-cheer-for-your-favorite-team,Get caught up in the madness of being a fan.,"['Cheering', 'Sports']",3.14,"Is there a right way or a wrong way to be passionate for your favorite sports team? Yes and I am going to give you a few tips on what not to do when rapped up in sports. Through many years of heartache (you will see what I mean when I tell you my favorite teams...LOL) I have learned some valuable lessons on how far to take my passion. I hope my ideas will keep you from more heartache. +First you need to have a team to be passionate about. When I first met my wife she wasn't into NFL football at all but I soon changed that. Now she watches every weekend with me. I don't dictate what teams my family can choose although I wish they would pick the same ones as I have. +Here is the list of the favorite teams in my family. In hockey it is a runaway for all of us, we are all Toronto Maple Leaf fans (can you feel the heartache already?). Baseball it is the same, Toronto Blue Jays (at least they gave us the championship twice). Basketball once again, the Toronto Raptors (still young and I can accept their struggles). Now the biggie, the NFL; this is where the whole family is different. My youngest son is a Green Bay Packers fan (he started watching football when Brett Farve was in his glory days, so I can't blame him). My oldest son loves the Oakland Raiders (He grew up with NWA so the gear was cool). +When I introduced football to my wife she took me to a real game for my birthday and was hooked. I told her to pick a team, but unlike most people just starting out she didn't go for the top team at the time. She actually watched and she fell in love the jaw jutting coach of the Pittsburg Steelers, Bill Cower (who would of known she would have her glory just last year!). Now for the heartache of my life, yes people I am a hurting Buffalo Bills fan. I have been a fan of the team since I was an infant. +Second, if you have the money it is okay to buy and dress up in the gear of your favorite teams. Collecting all the collectables is fine as long as it doesn't cut into your bills and food. Who cares if you dress like a geek, if it makes you happy to put on your striped pants and your teams jersey, I say go for it! Hell paint your face on game day if you think it is going to help! +Third, don't get so wrapped up that the rest of your life suffers. There was I time in my life that I lived and died depending on the way my team played that week. If the Bills lost I found myself depressed and not wanting to do anything so you can imagine how the four Super Bowl loses in a row crushed me. I was angry, depressed and I had no control of the situation which made it that much more pathetic. I have grown up since then and I accept it for what it is a game! +Fourth, I know how much you can be consumed by the game but don't overreact. It was a yearly event for the cops to come to my house because I got so warped and taken in by the game that a bad call by the refs or a bad play would have me literally screaming at the television and bouncing off the walls. When they would show up they sometimes thought that it was a domestic dispute but would just look at me, their eyes telling me how pathetic I was for getting into the game so deeply. I still sometimes lose my cool during games but nowhere near the level I used to. +Lastly, remember it is just a game. It isn't going to change your life one lick if your team wins or loses. It only changes the lives of the people actually involved on the teams. You can't change the outcome no matter how much you cheer at your house. It doesn't matter what rituals you might follow before games, you are not playing so you can't do anything about it. I know it's hard to accept that all your passion means nothing to the outcome of the game but once you realize this you will be able to cheer for the fun of it. +I hope these little tips allow you to have a better grip on the reality of what sports are and even though you feel you can make a difference you really can't." +317,How To Choose A Massage Parlour In Jamaica,Marcus Victory,How To,2007-03-25,2007-03-25,2022-01-04 08:30:32,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-choose-a-massage-parlour-in- jamaica,Quality is important.,"['Jamaica', 'Massage Parlour']",2.84,"How to choose a massage parlour in Jamaica +Thought history man has asked the question how can I get sexual satisfaction from a woman without meaningless conversation? The answer to this question in Jamaica is the massage parlour. The 'quality' or good massage parlour is one in which a man can explore his fantasies in a safe, clean environment without meaningless conversation. Here are the steps to choosing the right massage parlour for you: establish desire, convenience, geography, price and finally girls and decor. +First of all before looking for a massage parlour you must be specific about what you want. It is important to note that not all massage parlours offer the same services. How do you decide what you want? This is a simple process. You go online to a search engine and 'type of massage'. Now you have an idea of what general services a massage parlour will provide. After you must find which one you think you will like. For example a therapeutic massage: this massage entails the rubbing of the clients muscles with oil. This is an excellent way to relax after a stressful day at the office. An even more relaxing is the 'Wet Set'. This massage has the client and the masseuse take a shower together, which is then followed by a 'sensuous' massage on the bed. A sensuous massage is one in which the clients genitals are massaged until climax. There are many variations on each theme depending on the massage parlour. For example some parlours have what is called a 'Double Wet Set' which is the same as the wet set only there are two women instead of one. After each type of massage has been examined and you now know what type of massage you want, you are now ready for the next step. +The second step to choosing the right massage parlour for you is geography. You must find one that is in an area that is relatively safe, an area that you are familiar with and one that is not out of your way. How do you do this? You check the Internet by going to a search engine and typing 'Jamaica massage parlour'. If this does not work keep typing in variations of those three words or try a different search engine. Your search need not be confined to the internet. There is a vast quantity of printed materials that will contain the information you are looking for, such as The Jamaica Observer and The Jamaica Gleaner. The information is in the classified advertisements in a section you will find many massage parlours listed with many having what parish the parlour is in or what area of that parish. Some of these advertisements will have websites with directions on how to get to the parlour. Other printed materials with massage parlour advertisements are local pornographic magazines like Thrill, Bliss and True Hardcore Confessions. The advertisements will be all over the magazines in no particular section. With the discovery of a location that fits the pre-requisites you can now move on to the next step. +The third step in choosing the right massage parlour is price. This is very important because you don't want to pay too much. Each massage parlour has a different price range same as every restaurant has a different set of prices. When you have found a massage parlour that offers the service you want in a convenient location you must now find which one has the best price. This step requires you to call or surf the internet to find who has the best price on what you want. There is more to do than just making calls or surfing the internet; sometimes a massage parlour has specials on certain days or on certain massages, or certain seasons and even anniversary specials and packages. For example one massage parlour offers the third massage free while another gives a 20% discount on Saturdays. When you have finished your price research you can now decide which massage parlour has the best price for the service you require. +Having completed the previous steps the final step is girls and décor. This is the most important step in the selection process. The environment where you are to get your massage must be clean and attractive, so must the girl giving you the massage. Most times you cannot assess the girls or décor until you are actually at the massage parlour. Thanks to the internet this can be avoided. Most massage parlours with websites place pictures of their girls along with their facilities. If you do not have internet access then take careful note of what facilities are offered in their advertisements. Look for the following to make your choice: shower with hot and cold running water, Jacuzzi and air conditioning. +With all these steps satisfied you are on your way to finding the massage parlour that is best for your unique tastes. This combination of steps clearly demonstrates how to find a massage parlour in Jamaica." +318,How To Claim Winning Lottery Ticket,PositiveThinker,How To,2009-12-30,2009-12-30,2022-01-04 08:30:32,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-claim-winning-lottery-ticket,Here are things to do & not do when winning the lottery.,"['Attorney', 'Casino', 'Corporation', 'Credit Card Debt', 'Investments', 'Lawyer', 'Limousine', 'Millionaire', 'State', 'Taxes']",4.3,"Here are some things to do and not do when hitting the big lottery jackpot prize. +Dumb idea for a how to story you're thinking, no doubt. How to claim a winning lottery ticket. How do you claim a winning lottery ticket? I bet you don't have a clue. +Hey, you never know. You may have a winning ticket one day and this story could save you tens of millions of dollars. Let's face it. Someone has to win and it could be you. +I wrote this story because most people don't know the first thing to do when winning a huge amount of money. You just go down to your corner store, sign the back of the ticket, and have them mail it into the lottery commission. Right? Isn't that what you'd do? +Or are you the type who'd take a limousine to the lottery headquarters. Either way, both ways are wrong. There are some things that you need to do first before picking up your money. +Now I'm not writing about a hundred dollar scratch ticket winner. I'm writing about claiming the big jackpot prize 25, 50, 100 million dollars or more. If you won that kind of money, what would you do? Would you trust your winning ticket, albeit signed winning ticket, to a lottery agent? Able to bleach off your signature and write in their own name, I wouldn't. +Did you read about that guy or gal from New York who won $162 million dollars in the Mega Millions Lottery Game? What would you do had you won that prize? Wow. I can't imagine winning that amount of money. +Yeah, I know, you'd buy a big house, a few houses, and pay cash for them, and furnish them with the best new furniture, antiques, and artwork. Then, you'd buy new cars for everyone in your family, including a couple of special vehicles for yourself and your sweetie. Then, the real fun starts, a shopping spree where you'd buy watches, jewelry, and clothes. Finally, you'd take that extended cruise you always wanted to take and travel to see all those faraway places you've only read about and always wanted to see. +Forget about work. You wouldn't even bother to take the time to give them a call to tell them that you quit. They can take your job and shove it and keep your last lousy paycheck. You don't need that pittance anymore. You're finally free of that drudgery. +Lastly, you'd make sure you and your kids were financial secure by making some long-term investments, stocks, bonds, money markets, annuities, treasury notes, and, of course, more lottery tickets, not to mention your side trip to the casino. Hey, why not? This may be your lucky time, after all. You may as well go with the flow. You could be on a lucky streak. +You'd pay off everyone's school loans and unsecured credit card debt. Only, slow down. Let's back up a minute. How do you claim the ticket? +Would you take the lump sum cash buyout or would you take the 25 year payoff receiving a payment every year. Think about it. Which would you do? Tick tock. One time sum or payments. +I know, because it's an anuity, if you take the lump sum they reduce it by nearly 40%. If you take the 25 payments, you'd received all of your money without the 40% reduction. Which one is the right decision for you? +Let me give you a hint. You want to take the lump sum payment. You don't want those bastards holding onto your money any longer than they already have. You want it all and you want it now. +But wait. It's the end of the year. You don't want to claim your prize until after the start of the new year and a new tax year. Make sense? +Now, about the one time, lump sum payment. You don't want to claim the ticket in your name. Yes, I understand you thought you'd claim the ticket in your mother's name because she's over sixty-five and blind and by claiming it in her name, you'd get all those extra exceptions at tax time. Now, we're thinking creatively, but that's not nearly good enough. +If you just walked down there and claimed the ticket in your name, even in your Mom's name, and asked for the cash buyout option, after federal and state taxes, you'd be left with around $50 million of the $162 million dollar jackpot. Nope, I'm not kidding. Isn't that criminal? Why settle for less when, with a bit of planning and sound financial advice, you could have a lot more, maybe as much as double that amount. +Fifty million dollars is a lot of money, but why settle for fifty million, when you could have twice that amount, one hundred million? Whether you take the fifty million or roll it into one hundred million, either way, it's still a lot of money, more money than you can spend in a lifetime. +Yet, it should be a crime that these states get away with falsely advertising their jackpots, even though they know that you won't get a fraction of what they advertise. If a business falsely advertised like that, in the way that the state lottery commissions do, they'd be shut down by the state. Rules are rules, what rules are made for private industry should be the same for the government, but they aren't. +So, what do you do? How do you claim your ticket without giving so much away in taxes to the federal and state governments? First things first. +Make sure you sign the back of your ticket. Don't tell anyone you won the lottery and take your ticket to the bank and lock it away in a safety deposit box. If you plan on staying with your spouse, tell him or her that you won, no one else. Otherwise, go find a good divorce attorney and confide in him. +Trust me, you'll have plenty of time to tell people later, after you come down from the ceiling. And you don't want the newspapers or the lottery commission taking your damn photo. If your photo is published with your name, along with the city where you live, with a story that you won the big lottery jackpot prize, you'll not only be hearing from relatives you never heard of but also you'll be having to defend yourself against frivolous lawsuits. +Now, you want to find a financial adviser, one who is also a tax attorney. He'll draw up the papers for you to establish a corporation. A corporation? Why must you claim your prize in the name of a corporation? +You don't want to own and run a business. You don't have the time, the interest, and the experience to run your own company. You just want to have fun. Now that you have all this money, you want to be free of the business world and don't want to be tied down by the responsibility of a corporation of all things. +To receive as much of the jackpot prize as you can, in the name of the corporation is how you must claim the lottery ticket. Why? The tax rate on that amount of money is at least and not less than 50% for individuals, more with the amount of money you won, and only 25% and probably much less than that for corporations. +With corporations and corporate taxes, there are many legal deductions you can claim to reduce that tax down to a mere 10% or even lower. With a bit of creativity and a creative accountant, you could even show a loss, depending on the company you establish, such as a pharmaceutical research company or an oil and mineral mining company, even a green research company that helps save the environment. Conceivably, you could end up collecting all your lottery money and pay no taxes at all with the huge tax write-offs and subsequent tax refund you'd receive. +Well, for those who have hit the big one, I hope you will read this story and remember me with a finder's fee of say 10% of every tax dollar saved." +319,How To Cook Naked,KittyO,How To,2008-05-22,2008-05-22,2022-01-04 08:30:33,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-cook-naked,Sex is hungry work.,"['Dressing Up', 'Humor', 'Kitchen', 'Nudity']",4.26,"Sex is hungry work. +The easy answer is to nip to the fridge and grab a pot of yogurt to spoon over each other but there is nothing as restorative home cooking. And why get dressed? Almost everything is more fun to do when you are doing it naked. +I am assuming that the urge to cook naked will come upon you when you are already naked; in search of an inter-course snack so to speak. Naked cookery has a place in every relationship but is best in the down time between bouts of sex. If you start the evening naked at the stove you are going to burn your dinner. +Most naked cooks are women. First of all, I have never met a man who would willingly put his naked cock anywhere near a gas burner. Secondly, men like to watch women doing things naked that are usually done clothed. Last, there is an advantage to looking tantalizing while he is recovering his strength. He isn't going to roll over and fall asleep when there is a naked woman whipping something nearby. Rested and fed, he will be ready to go again. +The kitchen is perhaps the most underused room in most houses when it comes to sexual encounters. This is a shame, as kitchens are packed with erotic enhancers; sweet sticky jams, ice cubes, olive oil. The gentle burning sensation of a hot chili rubbed over a nipple lasts for hours. (You can tone down the sting by dabbing with a little Japanese sweet rice vinegar.) And don't forget the utility drawer; twist ties, wooden spoons, string, duct tape... +For some men, the very idea of a woman cooking naked in the house is enough to keep them aroused and content to stay in bed, even if they can't see her. But watching is half the fun. If you plan to do a lot of naked cooking, invest in a sofa for the kitchen or move to an open-plan house. +How naked are you going to be? +Total nudity is terrific for building body confidence. That said, a few accessories will add some spice. My personal preference is bare but for a pair of navy blue, patent leather stilettos that I keep in the kitchen as a daily reminder of some very tasty meals.Lingerie is generally incompatible with food preparation. It's one thing to lick a bit of maple syrup off a naked hip but it's pretty revolting to suck it out of the side strings of a thong. Frilly and dangly bits get in the way, garter belt snaps get hot, and there is the obvious problem of flammability. If you feel you must wear something consider an apron. +There are two basic types of apron, the waist and the bib. A waist apron can look particularly charming tied high above a well toned ass. Add high heels for a subtle tip of the pelvis. The obvious source for a waist apron is a uniform supplier that caters to maids and waitresses but have a poke around vintage clothing stores for something special. Waist aprons were popular until the 1960s and can be found in satin or taffeta for formal entertaining and cheerful prints for everyday wear. You can pick them for pennies as no one seems to know what to do with them these days. Now you do. +The bib apron is the one most people are familiar with. Look for one that is small enough around to leave your bottom exposed at the back and narrow enough up top so that at least the outer third of each breast remains uncovered. +Bib aprons are a great choice for male naked cooks as well and come in rougher fabrics like canvas and denim. The strap around the neck makes shoulders appear wider and the bow at the back turns the back of the thighs into a Christmas present. Tie it tight enough to encourage a little tent in front for dessert. +One more note on personal presentation, get waxed. There is nothing less appetizing than an errant pubic hair in the hollandaise sauce. +What to cook? +Never cook bacon naked, no matter how much you want it. +Whatever you choose to cook it should be light and it has to be fast. Don't make anything that produces crumbs if you plan to take the dish back to the bedroom Sweet things are good for energy levels, protein is good for stamina. +Some of the classic aphrodisiac foods will work while others simply don't. It is difficult to keep chocolate melted in the bedroom and the sterno for the fondue pot poses a fire hazard. Shucking oysters is always messy even if the mesh glove is a little bit kinky. And it's almost a shame to eat lobster naked, wasting all that ripping and tearing, which is such a nice prelude to ripping and tearing your clothes off later. Generally, anything that requires two hands to eat will complicate your evening. You should aspire to keep one hand free. +Be careful of anything that needs to be served very hot. Soup can prove disastrous; draining pasta is just asking for trouble. +In another dangerous category are those foods that look like other things. Reheated egg rolls, or, worse, reheated mini spring rolls are the opposite of sexually encouraging. Figs, on the other hand are an excellent choice. Cut Xs into four figs almost to the bottom. Gently spread them open and pour over honey warmed and diluted with a little water. The honey supplies instant energy to replace depleted blood sugar. Serve with crème fraishe or shavings of parmesan cheese if you prefer something savory. +Pancakes with fruit and whipped cream are fast and practical. Seasoned scrambled eggs are simple but effective. Warm, butter-soaked blinis with smoked salmon or caviar can be eaten with fingers which will become lickably butter-soaked as well. +If you feel confident enough to flambé in the nude, Bananas Foster is a decadent treat. Bananas have the added benefit of being high in rejuvenating potassium: +In a sauté pan melt together 4 oz butter and ½ cup brown sugar. When the sugar has dissolved and the butter is foaming add one sliced banana and a pinch of cinnamon. Baste the banana slices until they turn golden. Pour in two shots of dark rum and ignite to burn off the alcohol. Serve over vanilla ice cream. +Of all the foods suited to naked cooking the humble omelet is king. The process looks impressive while actually being very simple. Most people have a few eggs in the fridge and almost anything works as a filling. Omelets are light, fast to cook, easy to share, and nice to feed to each other. +Using a fork, mix together 2 or 3eggs, one teaspoon of water, salt and pepper. Be careful not to over-beat, working only till the color is uniform with no white streaks. +An omelet pan should have a long handle and sloping sides. And size really matters; the depth of egg in the pan should be about ¼ inch. The right sized pan for a 2 or 3 egg omelet has a six inch base. This, as a visual reference, is the same measurement as the length of the average erect penis. (Julia Child recommended a 7 inch pan, but, Julia Child was 6'2"".) +Put the pan on the flame and let it go white hot. Add butter or butter mixed with oil to make ½ teaspoon. (The combination is a little less likely to go brown at the high temperature.) +One of the best features of the naked omelet is the ballet you do while making it. Wriggle your hips and shift your weight from side to side as you swirl the butter around the pan taking care to coat the sides. +When the butter is foaming pour in the eggs and take 5 breaths. This small display of patience is good practice for other things. +The edges of the omelet will have started to cook. At this point you have two options. For the first one, tilt the pan forwards about 45 degrees. Use the fork to pull the far edge into the center. More egg will roll down to fill the empty space. Continue this motion all around the pan until the egg is set but not cooked. This is the time to add any filling. A handful of grated cheese adds a nice tang, while a few leaves of basil will perfume both of your mouths. The view from behind for any onlookers will be of you rocking and swaying in unpredictable loops. I'll call this omelet the exotic dancer's naked omelet. +Option two is more advanced as well as more athletic. Grasp the handle of the pan with both hands and tip it forwards as before spilling the egg mixture away from you. Then, level the pan and jerk it towards you sending elbows back and hips forwards and up. The backwards thrusting will knock the egg mixture against the far edge of the pan and then send it falling into the empty space at the handle end like a breaking wave. Repeat this movement until the egg is set but not cooked. Now, proceed with filling as above. Picture this from behind and you will see why I am calling this one the money shot naked omelet. +The easiest way to fold the omelet is to tip the pan forwards again and coax the near side over far with the back of a fork. +For the last fold, take the handle of the pan in your dominant hand and a warmed plate in the other. Hold them together in a V shape. Tip the pan over the plate as you bring the plate level. +Grab two forks, crawl back into bed and enjoy." +320,How to Create Boob & Nipple Art,Tedluvs38C,How To,2020-12-13,2020-12-13,2022-01-04 08:30:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-create-boob-and-nipple-art,I love making arty pics of boobs & nipples!,"['Boobs', 'Erotic Art', 'How To Create Boob & Nipple Art', 'Nipples', 'Tits']",4.56,"Boob and Nipple Art - How to Create It +I love boob and nipple pics! + _All boobs and nipples described in this essay are of women over 18; I am also well over 18._ +You'd think that in COVID times I could write more, but with the wife not going to various beauty parlors, not seeing her friends, etc., it's been tough to find blocks of time to write. +Instead, I keep adding to my collection of images of boobs and nipples, and pull out my hard dick for a little private time when she's working in another room. Bustybloom is a favorite site - lots of girls with big boobs! It often leads to other sites, and before I know it, I'm down the rabbit hole, with 15 sites open, boobs and nipples everywhere. +I love finding a bosom in profile, especially if there is a stiff nipple on the end. My eyes trace the lovely lower curve, the underboob, following the contour out, out until the curve rounds out to the areola, then to the nipple itself, as I stroke my dick. I scroll with my right hand and stroke with my left, then have to quickly release and catch my breath when a particularly hot boob (especially if stiff nipples are involved!) comes into view. Then it's copy and paste into my never ending set of boob documents! +I have other favorites, too, like girls who are bending over so their tits are hanging down, or up blouse views, where you can see the underside of a well- rounded boob, or downblouse images, especially stolen views extending to a stiff nipple, or side boob pics, especially when the girl is outside somewhere, likely showing off her tits and nipples to anyone in the right position. It makes me hot to think of these girls, daring the world to take a peek at their braless breasts! +I also love girls who are looking down at their breast or nipples. Sometimes, they will have on a partly sheer top, and their nipples are showing through, and it's like, Wow, am I hot showing off my braless tits, and I can even see my nipples! +Probably the hottest, for me, are girls holding their boobs, or maybe even pinching or pulling on their nipples! Whenever I find an image like that, I _have_ to copy it, even if the girl has small boobs. And if it looks like they're being overtaken by a nipple orgasm, it's sometimes - um - hard for me to hold back from a nipple-orgasm-induced orgasm of my own! +But as much fun as it is to troll for new images, I also enjoy curating the photos captured in previous sessions! The rewards are fewer in number, but the end result always keeps me hard! +You see, for me, it's all about the boobs and nipples - with one exception. But generally, my method involves cropping out everything but the tits, then expanding the image to fit the full width of the document. It's almost like I'm diving into the cleavage, face to boob with a glorious tit, imagining running my tongue over a wonderfully hard nipple. +But recently, I've been going back over my collection to create erotic boob art. By manipulating the images, I can take one perfect boob in profile and turn it into a mirror image pair, with stiff nipples on perfectly symmetrical breasts just touching each other! In my head, it's like two hot girls rubbing their nipples together, which is just so erotic! And a few times, with the right shaped tit, I mash four copies of a half boob together to form one pair of torpedo shaped tits, meeting in the middle with stiff nipples fusing together! I really have to be careful stroking my dick so I can keep making more boob and nipple art without making a mess - especially when my wife might come back from the library at any point! +Then, too, I've made more ""arty"" images, with double-nippled boobs, or boobs pointing out from a girl whose body is no more than a wisp in the middle of the creation. +When first drafted this essay, I included some of my art. But in looking up the restrictions, it seems they only allow art from pictures that I would have taken myself, which is not the case. Too bad - I've got some really artful erotic images. +But if you'd like to get an idea of how to do that yourself, here's the how-to section. + ** _CREATING YOUR OWN BOOB AND NIPPLE ART_** +NOTE - If you are an expert with Word and images, please see my plea for help at the very end. +First, get a fresh document prepared. Here are the steps I follow: +\- Set the margins. To get the biggest view possible and the most images, reduce margins to 0.1 inches: Page Layout, Margins, Custom Margins, then reduce all four to 0.1. Ignore the warning about printing. +\- Set Font size to, e.g., 3. Home, Font, put mouse in the box with a number (might be 12) and change to 3. This will reduce the white space between images. +\- Eliminate the white space between pages (once you've copied in a few pictures). Put mouse over the gap between one page and the next. You'll see two arrows pointing at each other, with the instruction, ""Double click to hide white space."" You might end up with headers and footers, but just escape and try again, being careful to keep the mouse steady. +\- Copy and paste some pictures from your internet search. +TIP - If the paste fails, with the document just showing an indented icon with a clipboard, (Ctrl), and a down arrow, here's what to do: backspace or undo, then click the down arrow under Home, Paste, Paste Special, then select Bitmap and okay - and voila! Your bosomy lady should appear in your document. +\- To crop the picture to your favorite parts, click somewhere in the image, look for Format at the top of the screen under Picture Tools, then look for Crop at the far right. You should see L shaped icons at each corner of your image. Press and hold the left mouse button to bring those L's into the picture to narrow in on your favorite area and eliminate extraneous portions of no interest. Simplest is to use opposite corners. Click outside the image to accept the changes. +\- To resize the image to fill your screen, put the cursor over one of the right hand corners until you see a double headed arrow, then press and hold the left mouse button to expand. +TIP - Word sometimes goes crazy if you do this near the top or bottom of the screen; if so, move the page up or down so the corner in question is more mid- screen. + ** _LET'S GET ARTY!_** + ** __** +\- Decide on your objective - will it be two images that meet from left and right, or will you take a hanging boob and have it implausibly meet another boob rising from below? +\- For left and right, decide which nipple is your target, then use the same cropping technique described above to narrow the image down until the edge is just touching, or a fraction inside the nipple. You may want to expand the image to increase your precision. +\- Next, you need to size the image to just less than half of the available width of the document - for me, about 4.1 inches. +\- Next, copy the image and paste it next to the original. That can look pretty hot on its own, but here's how to make it arty! If the nipples are both facing left, click on the left image, click Format under Picture Tools, click Rotate, then select Flip Horizontal, and voila - nipple touching nipple! +TIP - Sometimes, for reasons I can't fathom, Word leaves a thin white line between images. I don't know how to reliably eliminate these, but two methods sometimes work. Simplest is just to drag and drop the left image to be on the right. You might have to try a few times. If that fails, the only other thing I've found to fix it is to start fresh from your original image - redo the cropping, etc. This can also work. +\- For hanging boobs to touch from above and below, you have up to the full width of the screen to expand your image, depending on when graininess sets in. Crop as described, but from beneath. +\- When you're ready to paste, click just to the right of the image and paste. The image will be on the line below. +\- To flip one or the other see above to find Rotate, but select Flip Vertical. +\- To eliminate the white space between the boobs, highlight both images (click in one, then hold the shift key and click in the other). In the HOME tab of Word, find the Paragraph section of commands, with stuff like left or right justification. At the lower right corner, you should see a tiny arrow pointing down and right. When the box opens, select the Indents and Spacing tab. Find Spacing, then the box under At. Reduce this to, e.g., 0.8. Play around as needed to get the white eliminated. +Other effects can be created by using Rotate 90 degrees. +Enjoy! +HELP - Please see the TIP just a little bit above. If you know how to make Word get rid of the vertical gaps that sometimes appear, let me know! + " +321,How to Create Erotica on the iPhone,Middleagepoet,How To,2009-11-09,2009-11-09,2022-01-04 08:30:35,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-create-erotica-on-the-iphone,Draw and import drawings from your iPhone for Literotica.,[''],2.57,"Like many of the writer's of illustrated stories at Literotica I have continually searched for a way to create graphic art that can be easily translated into the text of a story and posted at Lit. While photographs using a digital camera is one means of creating some erotic art, if you don't have models willing to pose in sexual positions you are left to either landscapes or abstract images. +There are some computerized drawing programs that are available that will allow for some fairly sophisticated erotic drawings. From the looks of some of the art included in the illustrated stories at Lit these programs work nicely. Unfamiliar as I am with the complexity of these programs I am not ready to drop a lot of money on one of these programs. +Well, while shopping through some applications available for the Iphone, I came across an interesting product called Sketchbook Mobile by AutoDesk. For only $2.95 I downloaded a product that gave me the tools I needed to create my own erotic art on my phone. +When you first open the program, you are given a brief tour of the program showing some drawing and painting tools, a color palette, and some file management tools. Then the screen falls to a blank page with only a small circle of icons at the bottom of the page. You tap on that circle of icons and it will move to the center of screen and give you three drawing options, a pencil, a spray painter and a brush painter. +You can also choose an eraser, a brush or pencil sizing tool, a layer option, a color palette or a mirroring tool. In the center of the circle of these icons is a dial which will let you adjust the thickness of your pencil line, the paint spray or the paint brush. At each corner of the screen you can undo an operation, redo an operation, clear a layer of fit the drawing to a view. A simple double tap at one of the corners will make the changes indicated. +My Iphone is a 2G phone using 3G software. While it does work well with the program, the 3G phones include features that can enhance your work. I will not cover those since my phone won't let me. +In creating your art, you need to keep in mind the tool you are working with to do the drawing, basically your finger. The screen will not work with a pencil or pen point, so don't have a great deal of fine control as to where the screen will sense your fingertip and put down a line. Unless you are very patient or have small fingers you should veer away from highly detailed work with intricate line work. +Often times you will need to make a number of attempts to get the line placement and curve you really want. You will get used to using the undo feature here a lot. I have found the best way to paint a human figure is to use a flesh tone color with fairly wide brush stroke to form a body part, say the curve of a hip, a breast, etc. Later, I will switch to the pencil set to black and add lines of detail to show the hip more distinctly, to form the curve of the breast or to add an areola and nipple. +Again, unless you can really get a good control of how your finger moves on the screen, you will probably be better off working with abstract or impressionist art. With only a few colors and black lines you can often create a truly seductive image. Often a few lines will offer the hint of two lovers in a more intimate scene that the most detailed photograph. +Sketchbook will also let you import photographs you have on the Iphone into the program. You can then use the tools to alter the photograph or take advantage of the layering tool to actually trace a photograph. Once again, your dexterity with your fingertips will dictate how successful the tracing can be. +The real beauty of the art you create in Sketchbook on the Iphone is the simplicity in moving it into your illustrated story. The size of the art is typically small, but you will need to make sure the width doesn't exceed 525 pixels wide or it won't fit Literotica's guidelines for submitting art. Assuming the art is small enough, all you need to do is use a function in Sketchbook Mobile to email the art directly to yourself. +Once you begin typing a story into a MS Word document all you need to do is open your email, copy the artwork it and paste it directly into the document. The drawing file you transferred from your IPhone is in a PNG format, basically a transfer file, however, I was able to transfer it into MS Word and later into Literotica. If you do have difficulty here, you may want translate the PNG file into JPG before importing it into your word file, but for me the PNG worked fine. +Once your drawing is in the word file, you can scale it up or down once it is inside MS Word using the tools available in the word processing software. From that point all you need to do is directly upload the story to Literotica using the function on the submit page." +322,How to Create Some Special Effects,SunrockSin,How To,2008-12-14,2008-12-14,2022-01-04 08:30:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-create-some-special-effects,Instructions on audio effects in Sound Recorder.,['Audio How-To'],4.75,"Like my earlier article, How to Record a Text with Audio Story, this article is primarily geared to those new to recording Text with Audio stories for Literotica or those not very familiar with Sound Recorder. Sound Recorder is limited in what it can do and certainly has few of the special effects and other capabilities that many other sound and recording software have available. While it is limited, there are few things writers can do to enhance their recordings of poems or prose. +The first thing you can do is not really a special effect, it is simply a function of the sound quality, however, with a bit of imagination and insight, a resourceful writing can advantage of the sound qualities available. In my article on how to record a story, one of the first software settings we looked at was the sound quality. Sound recorder allows you to record with CD quality, radio quality or phone quality. While a writer may select a lower quality sound to make file handling easier (the lower quality sound recording creates smaller files) he might also want to use the quality level to add dimension to a recording. +While the CD quality recording provides a crisp, clean sound, perhaps a story taking place outside on shipping dock might seem odd with such crisp sound, perhaps a slight crackle or hiss in the background might give a rough quality to the story that enhances the listening experience. Perhaps if the story is related through a phone call, perhaps a phone quality recording might enhance the effect. You might want to try some readings using the different sound qualities and see which one works best for you (refer back to my article How to Record a Text with Audio Story for detailed instructions on changing the recording quality.) +Sound Recorder has some simple editing features that will allow you to merge several different files. This might allow you to mix several different quality level recordings into a single story, so you can have a dock scent, a telephone conversation and a crisp, indoor scene all rolled into one story. I don't have a lot of experience in mixing and merging files so I will leave this to you to perfect and perhaps report upon. +In addition to the sound quality and editing effects, Sound Recorder has some effects available to modify the sound once it has been recorded. Please be safe with your file and make sure you save a backup file of your recording before trying the effects, it is far too easy to screw up your recorded story, so make sure you have a backup plan. +Once you have backed up your main file you can simply click on the menu item Effects and take a peek at the drop down menu. You can modify the volume up or down. While this is not an exotic technique, you will be surprised how often the volume level of your recording needs adjustment. Here you have an easy fix for a too soft or too loud recording. +Another effect will allow you to speed up or slow down a recording letting you reduce the size of your file if you need to or extending the reading time if you think a slower reading will add to the story. I imagine a good pornographic elf story might be enhanced with the elf-like sound a speeded up voice would produce. Hey, elves need sex too you know. +Perhaps the most enticing effect available adds an echo to the sound. This is especially rewarding in reading poetry or perhaps some more gothic or horror based erotica. All you do is click on this item after you have recorded a story and your words will echo. Give it a try and see what you think. It certainly won't work on all stories, but it is an interesting effect. +Sound Recorder has one last effect available but I am not sure how understandable your stories will be if you use reverse. I am reminded of the old TV series Twin Peaks, which ended so abruptly that they put out a movie to finish up the story. There is a dream scene in the movie where a dwarf speaks. He speaks English but in such an odd way you can barely understand (the movie actually provided captions here). I finally figured out that the actor actually spoke the work backwards in the original recording and this track was then run in reverse, so the words she spoke backwards now played out running forward. It was an odd, odd effect. +Of course, anyone recording a story is free to add any special sound effects your microphone can pick up. Play music in the background, or perhaps add some other sounds pertinent to your story. I think some writers here have actually recorded some love making sessions and included the sounds in the stories. See what works for you. +With these effects in mind and with the recording techniques discussed an earlier article, you are ready to grab a story and start recording. Or if you really want to do something special, perhaps tailor the story you write with this audio recording in mind.

But being a slut is really just a state of mind. I knew back when I was just starting out in puberty that I was a head turning hotty, hell, most girls do. It’s just that at that age we have all of these idealistic fantasies about marrying some studdly prince mind reader charming. (An idea that was introduced to us earlier by our parents, relatives, and friends.) The only problem with that concept is it’s like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. And if neither one can change enough to fit permanently with the other the relationship falls apart. Both the peg, and the hole get all mangled up, and neither will ever fit their proper dimensions again. So now if neither of them can change back then they both have to go hunting for what they hope will fit their mangled being, and they just keep mangling their way through life without ever finding a proper fit. Men want to marry their princess, and women want to marry their prince, but what happens after the wedding ceremony changes everything. Why? Because men want a slut in their marriage bed to fuck, and women want a real manly stud to make a real woman out of them. +Unfortunately, once the hot and sweaty is over with these two people now want somewhat different things. Oh sure they both want to be appreciated, and if they both smoke they’ll enjoy a cigarette together. But after their passions have been slaked what do they have in common? +Certainly not their plumbing. And their plumbing has a great deal of influence over their thoughts, and how they live their individual lives. A woman’s plumbing is set up to make, and carry babies to term. Conceivably, if she can stay healthy, and relatively attractive once a woman reaches puberty she can get knocked up at least once a year until she enters the change of life, and that could be as late as in her late 40’s, and even early 50’s. And even if she has twins every time, she won’t be able to carry 100 babies to term in her lifetime. (Except perhaps for the original Eve.) However a single individual man’s plumbing is set up to make thousands, upon thousands of babies in as many women as will accept his seed. (Whether by natural, or artificial means.) +Now after carrying her babies to term the woman is naturally disposed to care, and nurture her babies until they can leave the nest. This is especially true after all that she has gone through to bring the baby into this word. However a man has no idea, no real comprehension of this process, or what it feels like. And therein lies the real difference between men and women, and how they think. Now I’m not saying that men can’t be curious about the process to the point of becoming a doctor, nurse, or midwife if they so choose, or even become attached to their offspring at the very least imprinting a real love for their own children. But it is only due to the way that they were brought up that determines whether they will continue their relationship with the woman who bore their offspring, or not. And who’s to say that they have to? +By their very nature babies are born into this world selfish. They think only of their immediate wants, and needs. However as they grow they quickly determine which parent’s plumbing they inherited, and begin to imitate that parent’s behavior. True there are aberrations to this during adolescence, but for the most part the plumbing eventually will win out when it comes to the thought process. Case in point is the saying that: A man thinks with his stiff prick. If that is true then it must also be said that a woman thinks with her cunt. +Let’s take this as a truism for the moment, shall we. A stiff prick requires no foreplay to become the invader, it is unyielding though occasionally it will bend, it is determined, aggressive, and it spits even if stuck up somebody’s ass, or a knothole. A cunt more often than not requires foreplay to be invaded, it is pliable, yielding to aggression, undetermined dimensionally speaking, and is the portal for all humanity. Which of these two sounds saintly to you, and which is built for deviltry, and mayhem? Can you determine just by my two defining sentences why each of the sex’s think the way that they do for the most part? If your answer is no, and you are a woman, then please step to the back of the class where Ms Biology will prepare you for puberty all over again. If your answer is yes, and you are a man, then you can come up here and sit with the teacher. +Tab A goes into Slot B is basic fucking 101 at puberty, and still works all through our lives. It is what makes life so tolerable. However like all good things there is a heavy price to pay for just a short time’s worth of fun. Women know this instinctively, but men have to be taught this from birth, and laws are passed to make these responsibilities real for them as well. Men take pride in their ability to earn a decent living from the sweat of their brows, as well as their imagined sexual prowess. So since it would be wrong for the legal system to cut off their dicks, (Though castration isn’t entirely out of the question as yet.), they do the next best thing, and pull money out of their wallets to help support those little responsibilities. And yet there wouldn’t be any problem at all if people would just take, or _NOT_ take other people the way that they are, and stop thinking that they can change them just by putting a wedding band on their left ring finger, or by having a baby with them in, or out of wedlock! Okay, perhaps I digress, but it needed to be said. + **Relationships aren’t born they hatch, and grow:** +The difference between falling in lust, and falling in love is that the later is a giving thing, and the former is totally self-serving. Now in all honesty I can’t speak for other women, but for me a man has to really like me, as much as I really like him before I’ll even consider bringing him home for a cup of coffee. And I’m not talking about my, or his looks, or sex appeal here, we all have that to a certain degree regardless of what you, or they think of yourselves. It’s in the plumbing, remember? +True, all of us want to be lusted after, but most of us want to be loved, and adored, as well as mutually love, and adore back. However to truly love someone you have to like, and respect the real them first. And you have to invest time to find out if you do like them. But even finding out that you like someone doesn’t mean that you’re going to fall in love with them, does it. Why? Because you can like what somebody really is, even respect them for it, but still not be comfortable with them once you run out of things to say, and do together. However you can still become friends, or lovers with them, and that alone is worth the effort as nobody can have too many friends, and dependable lovers. +If that sounds slutty of me to you, then so be it. But think, if I were a man you’d be praising my conquests, wouldn’t you. So slutty must really mean when a woman acts like a man concerning sex, meaning she likes it as much as men, right? And why shouldn’t a woman enjoy sex as much as a man? And if she doesn’t enjoy sex as much as the man what does that say about the man who enjoyed having her? +I never met a man who would turn down a blowjob, but I’ve met more than my fair share of men who refuse to eat pussy, mainly mine. And why? I mean I keep the damn thing clean and fresh, shower twice daily, and even douche when I need to. Those who have eaten my pussy love the taste, I’m proud to say. And those who haven’t I refuse to call lover ever again. So what am I talking about here, do I digress once again? No. +Love is a matter of constant giving of one’s self to the one that they love, even to the point of giving them over to someone else that they truly love, if it comes to that. Love is never selfish, or truly jealous, and in a silent room takes only a look to make the moment warm, and comforting for both. True love is a mutual passion that never burns out. Sometimes it may just simmer waiting for the time when the embers can be stoked. Other times it just flares up out of nowhere. But it never totally goes cold. +Falling in lust, on the other hand, can often times be quite beneficial to both parties, as long as they both realize that it is only lust, and is in no way harmful to some other relationship outside of this one. Unfortunately, as I stated earlier, lust is self-serving, and for the most part a selfish kind of passion. And because it is selfish, it can hurt any real loving relationship that is already in progress, as can be testified by the rise in the divorce rate in America. +So what does it take to build a real loving, mutually respectful relationship? Most people will say right off that it takes honesty, and trust. And I would agree accept that there are too many variables to account for. For a real loving, and mutually respectful relationship to work each of the two involved has to agree to be mutually forgiving, and forgetful of the other’s transgressions as well as be as openly honest, and trusting as they can at all times. We have to become Adam and Eve if you will. +Did Adam, and Eve love each other? How could they know since there was no one else to compare their relationship with to start off, and no other possible mates to choose from either. And later when there were others did they play around, or didn’t they? And if they did play around why didn’t they separate over it? And when Eve deceived Adam into eating the forbidden fruit why didn’t he just ask for another mate? He still had plenty of ribs after all. Why? Because true love isn’t just giving, it’s also forgiving, and forgetful. And that’s how real relationships work. Anything else isn’t really a loving relationship. It’s just two people who get along with each other as long as certain criteria are met by both of them. Nobody on this planet has ever approached perfection save for one, and he was legally murdered because of it. +Life is all about change. And so are relationships. People are constantly changing, and even though they may not notice it in themselves, they do take note of the changes in their significant other as time goes by. As long as they are comfortable with the changes the relationship continues to be fruitful to both parties. And again let me use Adam, and Eve as a comparison. After all they live over 900 years each, and were together from day one as man and wife until one of them died. They had to have had more changes occur in their lifetimes than anyone else can possibly conceive of. And yet they must have each of them been comfortable with the changes in each other to stay together all of that time. +Any wound is only a fleeting pain unless you allow it to fester, and if you do then you can die from a simple wound the same as you can from a bullet to the heart, or brain. It just takes a little longer is all. An indiscretion in a relationship is a simple wound of sorts also, but if not forgiven, and forgotten can fester into the death of any good loving relationship, and is still the reason for most divorces worldwide. Is it all because of those wedding vows, and the rings? Did one person stop cherishing the other, or did they just get horny, and fuck somebody else other than the person that they were married to? Should we be happy with the person that we married to the point of absolute fealty, to the vows that we made, or the contract of marriage that we signed? +Well legally, and morally the answer is yes. However that yes doesn’t take into account certain variables either. And again I’m speaking about change here. For instance; what if the two parties concerned mutually agree to wife swapping, or an open marriage after a while; where other sexual partners are now allowed into their sex lives. Commonly known as the seven year itch after which most married couples would willingly agree that their sex life has taken a drastic turn to the worst due to their mutual knowledge of each others wants, and turn-ons have left a, shall we say, bland taste to their sex life. If both partners can agree, then even this is possible without breaking the comfort barrier that keeps them bound together. As long as it works for both anything is possible in a loving relationship. The problems only evolve when one of the parties doesn’t want a change. And that’s when a relationship is in real peril. Why? Because jealousy can’t live in a truly mutually loving relationship. And a mutually loving relationship always allows for change. +In closing I’d like to add this: On their 30th wedding anniversary my grandfather, and grandmother proclaimed that their honeymoon was finally over. They could now look forward to a normal sex life like every other married couple enjoys. They were in their mid 50’s, and she had just started the change of life phase. When asked what was their secret, my grandfather pointed at my grandmother, and she pointed to him both at the same time. Not really sure what they meant by that I approached my grandmother later to ask her in private. +“We just meant that both of us had to work at it every moment we were together, or apart to get it right, dear. No one says that you have to like all of the changes that come about during your marriage, but you do have to be willing to live with them, and comfortably accept them, be giving, and forgiving, and constantly attuned to each other to make a mutually loving relationship work.” +And there you have it in a nutshell, the truth about how to create the perfect mate." +324,How to Cuckold Your Husband,lovecucks,How To,2008-01-16,2009-03-18,2022-01-04 08:30:38,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-cuckold-your-husband,1. Woman's guide to making a husband submit. 2. Other fun things to do.,"['Bitch', 'Cuckold', 'Domination', 'Dominatrix', 'Femdom', 'Hotwife', 'Husband', 'Mistress', 'Submit', 'Training']",4.12,"Introduction +Turning your husband into a cuckold can be one of the most rewarding things you ever do. A successfully cuckolded husband will be completely submissive. He will satisfy all your sexual cravings, manage all the mundane chores of your life, allow you to sleep with whomever you wish, subject himself to any amount of humiliation you desire, and of course, love you unconditionally. +But be warned, cuckolding can also be one of the most challenging things you ever do. The process is long, complicated, energy consuming, and by no means sure of success. The strain on your marriage will be unbelievable, and it may be weeks or months before you succeed. In the end though, it will be worth it. +Hopefully this will help educate women on how to begin the wonderful journey of female domination and to hopefully relieve some of the apprehension that might prevent a woman from ever trying. After reading this it will be clearer that cuckolding your husband is not as hard as it seems, and that accomplishing this feat is more possible than you thought. +The most common reason a women doesn't cuckold her husband is that she thinks he'll never go for it - that he's not the type. This is such a myth that it must be dispelled immediately. Many cuckolds begin as ordinary husbands. Your husband may even be as manly as men come, but don't worry, cuckolding is often a just a matter of helping your hubby discover his submissive side. Take heart in the fact that underneath all his machissimo and pride, there is a cock loving wimp that is begging you to force him to do all sorts of nasty things. +First train yourself +Think of cuckolding as an expertise. For the wife who decides to cuckold her husband, she must have complete mastery of certain skills. Much like in any profession - she must go to school, read, and practice. So like a professional, before you ever begin training your husband, you must first train yourself. You're about to go on an incredible journey; you want to be prepared, right? +The world of cuckolding is unlike the normal world. It has various rules and customs that are different from everyday life, of which you must be aware. You must immerse yourself in this new culture. To begin, start reading erotic stories that deal with cuckolding. Many women before you have cuckolded their husbands and recorded their experiences. Also many men have written about their decent into female domination. Learn from them. Reading stories will acquaint you to the new world of cuckolding and will prevent you from having to reinvent anything. Beyond stories, you may want to read books on female domination, and buy videos of dominatrixes humiliating men. +You must also train yourself to be sexually independent. If you want to control your husband you need to not need his penis. In the future you will need to deny your husband the pleasures of your body and this will be only possible if you are strong enough to abstain from sex. Sex between you and your hubby is probably pretty vanilla anyway if you're thinking about cuckolding him, so it shouldn't be too hard. Masturbate often. Splurge on vibrators, dildos, lotions, clothing, and pornography. Have fun! Visit your local sex shop and ask for ideas. You may also want to think about buying toys that, after using on yourself, you can also use on your husband once he's properly trained. The key is whenever you really have the urge for a fucking, train yourself to seek satisfaction from a source other than your husband. For example, when you're horny, take out your vibrator. +A good way to help your training along is to change your appearance. Make it your goal to become a hotwife. The prime focus of a hotwife is expressing her sexuality in all manners, from the type of shoes she wears to the way she shaves her pussy. A hotwife wears tight fitting clothes as much as she can. She wears short skirts, perfume, and high-heels all the time. She does her hair and wears makeup daily. At night she wears sexy lingerie. She goes to the gym often. When she goes to the grocery store she doesn't wear underwear. If you start doing thing like these, not only will you be sending a signal to your husband that you've changed, but you'll be sending a signal to yourself. Because you look like a hotwife, you'll think you're a hotwife, and then you'll be a hotwife! The advantages to being a hotwife are numerous. You're husband will lust for you much more, even if he doesn't show it, other men will croon over you (this will increase your confidence), and your sexual energy will increase, all of which you can channel into power. +Also feel free to start flirting. It's probably been a long time since you've flirted with another man, so you'll need practice. Look men in the eyes and smile. If you drop something in the office, bend over without bending your knees. At night go out with girlfriends that like to party. Make it a goal to flirt with at least one man a day. The key is to increase you're confidence. Not only will it be very satisfying to know that there are other men out there who are interested in you, but in the back of your mind you can use this knowledge as leverage against your husband. +Beginning +Once you've properly educated yourself in the art cuckolding, freed yourself from your husband's dick, and increased your confidence, it's time to begin. +The first submission of your husband is the most challenging phase of the process. Even if he wants to be your slave, he will resist. There are many reasons he will do this like gender stereotypes and the years of routine between you, but first and foremost will be that he wants to save-face. Not only can he not admit to you that he wants to be your bitch, but he can't admit it to himself either. He will never just give you power over him even though he wants to. This would violate his manhood. You need to take it from him - it's the only way. +During this time, the power in your relationship will be in flux. Neither of you will be sure where the other stands. This uncertainty will be uncomfortable for both of you because it is human nature to order the world. You will have doubts such as, ""Am I being too hard on him?"" ""Was this a good idea?"" ""Did I ruin our marriage?"" These are completely normal thoughts, but you must never share them with your husband. It will have to be your own private burden. Sharing thoughts of uncertainty will only insert doubt in his mind and show weakness. His uncertainty will be twice that of yours, so you must be the guiding hand for him. +Broaching the Subject +You'll definitely want to let him know what's going on. If he doesn't, how can he play along? Remember, you husband wants to be cuckolded. You only need to break the ice. For example: +Has your husband ever mentioned how you'd feel about a threesome, swinging, or anything extramarital? This may be a good place to start if he did. First make your husband really hot in a way that still allows you to talk to him, like by giving him a hand job. Once he's near orgasm ask him, ""Hey honey, remember that time you mentioned having a threesome? Do you still feel the same about it?"" +Judge his reaction. His eyes may light up or his heart may start beating faster. He'll try to hide his excitement of course. +He'll ask, ""Would you really consider it?"" +And you can say, ""Well I've been thinking about it. It might be fun to make some changes."" +or +If you suspect your husband masturbates often, try to catch him in the act. Then you can give him hell. +""Honey, I've had it with you! This is the last time I catch you masturbating. It's disrespectful and disgusting. Things are going to be changing around here!"" +These are just a few examples of how to broach cuckolding with your husband. Note the range in ways. Also note cuckolding was never mentioned. At this early stage there is no need to be specific. The only thing you need to be concerned about is the main message: ""Things are going to be changing."" Of all the stories you've read about wives cuckolding their husbands, choose the method you are most comfortable with. +Being Mean +After you've let him know that things will be changing around the house, you have to follow through. Remember, he won't just give you control, you have to take it from him. Basically you're going to have to be mean to him. If you were raised right this will probably not be easy for you. You were taught to treat everyone with the same respect you wish to have. This is one of the hardest parts of cuckolding because you'll be breaking the golden rule, but once you get used to it, it becomes natural. +Start by taking aspects of his life away from him. One of the first things you can do is to take is his identity away. For example, feminize your husband's name; Jack can become Jackie, Dan can become Danielle. Or childize his name; John can become Johnny, Bill can become Billy. You're main objective is equate him with weakness - historically women and children. Actually have a conversation with him about this. Let him know that you will be calling him something new from now on. +Also don't let him call you by name anymore. Only equals can call each other by name. Force him to refer to you as ""Mistress"" or ""Goddess."" When you ask him a yes or no question, make him respond with ""Yes, Mam"" or ""No, Mam."" This will help condition him as a subordinate. +On the same lines, you can call him nicknames like, ""Little One"" or ""Tiny."" And refer to his penis as a ""dicklet."" This will strike his insecurity with his penis size, and if he never had an insecurity, it will create one. +Other examples of being mean to your husband are to take his free time away by giving him chores, his money and possessions away by demanding he be frugal, and his sex life away by withdrawing sex. Start small, but be firm. You want him to get used to submitting, and you used to dominating. For example, make him make the bed every morning from now on instead of you. Even something as inconsequential as making the bed will have a submissive effect on him and it will be something to build on later. For example, when you feel the time is right you can add to his responsibilities, ""Honey, since you're doing such a great job making the bed everyday, I'm going to have you clean the entire bedroom every morning from now on too."" +Take you time being mean. It's more important that you are comfortable with the process than the actual process. You are training yourself to be the beautiful and terrifying wife whose husband begs to please you. Be strict with the rules you make. If your husband doesn't take out the trash let him know your displeasure. Punish him with real consequences if he messes up. +Punishment may be many different things depending on your style. You can be passive aggressive by withdrawing sex. You can be very aggressive and spank him. You can force him to do something perverted like eating his own semen. Just make sure you communicate with him at the time of his infracture that you are displeased with him, and that there will be consequences. +Being Nice +The beauty of being mean to your husband isn't in its direct benefits, but in how it redefines being nice. Things that used to be normal for him are now special treats. He used to be able to have sex with you whenever he wanted, but because you've withdrawn sex from him, you've made it a rare event - something to behold. By being constantly mean to you husband, you'll lower his standard of what is considered nice. +Use this concept once you've established a baseline of meanness, which will probably take few weeks. Once being mean has become the norm you can start. For example, let him know a reward will follow his future good behavior. You can say, ""I've decided today that if you're a good boy all week and do all your chores, I'll give you a blowjob at the end of the week."" A blowjob only a few weeks ago was not worth doing an entire week of chores for, but because you're mean now, a blowjob's value has greatly increased. Being ""nice"" like this you give your husband an incentive to follow your rules -- further deepening your control. +It's all about sticks and carrots. Reward him for good behavior, punish him for bad, and most importantly, remind him that he's lessor to you. +Your Pleasure First +Once you've mastered being mean to him, you can progress to a new lesson. Train him to subordinate his pleasure to yours. His new reason for being will be solely to please his mistress. Let him know this. Things like the new car he was planning on buying make off limits. Nights out with his friends, no -- he has to stay in and clean. Fishing? Nope, he's got to do laundry. +Not only will this degrade him, but it will give you more free time. Take advantage of this and enjoy it! Go to the pool and relax, go out with your friends at night, go on dates with other men. You won't have to worry about the kids anymore because your husband is watching them. And because you've forbidden him from buying that big ticket item he's been saving for, go shopping! There's plenty of money now, right? This the time to be a hotwife -- go for it. +If you don't do these things by deciding you'd rather be nice to him, it will be to your determent. It's up to you to fill the void of your husband's powerlessness. If you only force him not to buy the car, but then don't spend the freed money, you're sending him an incomplete message. Spend the car money on yourself, and let him know, ""I, your wife, don't care about your pleasure because mine is more important."" Make sure you fill the void; you don't want all your hard work wasted. +Changing the definition of sex +This lesson is especially important. Definitely no more blowjobs. The blowjob is the epitome of giving him pleasure. Don't even have sexual intercourse with him. Intercourse equates both of your pleasures, not exactly the message you want to send him either. If he insists on sex, have him fuck you with your favorite dildo. Make sure to mention how much bigger it is than his penis and how much you enjoy having a ""real cock"" in you. If you absolutely must have sex with him a good idea may be to make him wear one or two ""long lasting"" or numbing condoms. This will greatly reduce his pleasure. The best thing you can turn sex into is him eating you out, period. You may want to squat on his face and force him to eat your pussy, or lay on your back and make him beg to eat you. Either way, he should soon learn what you mean when you say, ""Let's have sex."" For him, at most, let him masturbate afterwards and only if he did a good job. +Conditions +From here you can take things further. A good way to do this is with conditions. A condition is basically a trade. For example, ""Okay wimp, I'll let you cum tonight, but you have to cum in your hand and eat it afterwards,"" or ""Alright bitch, I'm going to be nice tonight and let you fuck me, but afterwards you're going to have to eat your cum from my pussy."" By using conditions, you can bring him to higher levels of submission voluntarily. This is more than worth the momentary pleasure you trade him. +Once you've gotten your hubby to do a degrading act for the first time with a condition, the subsequent times become much easier. Let's say it had been a month since you let you husband stick his dick in you. Then one night you offered him the chance to fuck you as long as you got to fuck him afterwards. He was so desperate to feel your soft, warm pussy, he jumped at the chance. That night you give him a good cum, then put on your strap-on dildo and stuck it in his ass for the first time. You've now made it much easier to fuck him in the ass for a 2nd time by breaking that initial barrier. You probably won't need to bargain with him again, just force him. Using a condition at every major cuckold milestone is recommended. For example, when you bring another man into the relationship. This is a big step for him, so you'll have to coax him along with rewards. +Don't use conditions forever. They are just a tool to use in the beginning stages of taming your husband. After a while you will have amassed so much power, there will be no need for them. You can just make him do whatever you want. Once you've reached this point using a condition will actually make you look weaker. +Congratulations! +Sometime around this point you will have reached a milestone in which you can say you've officially conditioned your husband to be your cuckold. Usually it occurs after you've forced your husband to do something so depraved that he has no self respect anymore. It may be the night you take his anal virginity, the night you come home from a bar and make him eat another man's cum from your pussy, or the time you force him to suck another man's larger penis. All the hard work you have done training yourself and your husband culminates here. For afterwards the change in your relationship will be so apparent that both of you will never be able to go back. He will be stricken with terrible shame and embarrassment, and you will have finally tasted the ecstasy of pure power. +Also remember that with great power comes responsibility. You are now responsible for another human being. You will have to make many more decisions because he has deferred authority to you, his dominatrix. You have changed his life purpose from the pursuit of happiness to the pursuit of your happiness; you must give him every opportunity to fulfill this new mission and he will be grateful to serve you. +Now relax, you've made it! Enjoy the lifestyle perks that cuckolding has to offer. Live a life of leisure. Have you husband take care of all the mundane things. Make him do all sorts of nasty and perverted things. Sleep with other men and bring them home to play. Whatever you choose to do with your cuckold, enjoy the luxury of having the choice...:) + +" +325,How to Cum Like a Racehorse,BatsandGlamour,How To,2002-04-07,2002-04-07,2022-01-04 08:30:39,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-cum-like-a-racehorse,...and other secrets of enhanced sexual performance.,"['Amount Semen', 'Kay Parker', 'Read Story', 'Sex Life', 'Sexual Performance']",4.2,"Time goes by. So, you're not 18 anymore, so what? The hair may be thinning, gray or both, but that's OK, if the sexual spirit is still willing. +As we get older, our sexual performance often begins to lag. We can't cum as often or as perhaps as voluminously, and hope we're still doing the job. Making love to the same women for 18 or 20 years may not help – but it may not be worth giving up the house, kids and savings to have better sex. +So how can you spice up both your performance and therefore your sex life? Here are some answers from the archives of the real world. +Challenge: She's tired, or seemingly not interested in sex. +Solution: You may be reading it right now. The stories in literotica.com may just do the trick. Read a story to her, have her read one to you – any way you can, have her read a story. The beauty of this website is than you can find a story that you know she'll probably like. +And let's face it, erotic literature much like porn is arousing as hell. It gets people thinking about sex, imagining it. There's a little voyeur in all of us, and peeking into someone else's sex life is stimulating to everyone. Don't overlook this suggestion– it works! +Speaking of porn; let me tell you a true story from a few years back. My wife had never seen a professional adult video. The only ones I had seen, as I recall, were on a Super-8 projector with a bunch of horny teens. +A buddy of mine from work lent me a few of his videos. I just couldn't wait to get home that Friday. My underpants were getting tight just thinking about it. I told my wife about them and she agreed to watch with me. She was curious as well. The first video we put on was the original ""Taboo"" with Kay Parker. +I'll tell you, that video wasn't on for long before my wife exploded with desire. No kidding – before I knew it, she was sucking my cock with a ferocity I'd never had with her. The video just pushed her buttons. We fucked like crazy that night – crazier than ever. It was wonderful. We've had many such nights since. +Take my advice, let the erotica do its job and get out of the way! +One thing, there's a lot of lousy porn out there. Instead of turning you both on, it can put you both to sleep. Plus, the videos in the rental shops usually stink, chosen for their box cover which often cost more to make than the movie itself. Buy your own, and before you do, check out the Internet for a review of the video or DVD. They will even suggest vendors to buy online, which saves you money, embarrassment and is the easiest thing in the world to do. +For starters though, try; Taboo with Kay Parker, Fade to Black with Taylor Hayes, Bad Wives with Dianne Lauren, Nothing to Hide, Justine 2 (my favorite) with Roxanne blaze. Flashpoint with Jenna Jameson, The Dinner Party (excellent) with Celeste. +Arousal aside, another benefit of watching adult videos is for both of you to learn new techniques and positions. My baby might never have tried anal without first seeing it on video. +One caveat: these guys are not hiring necessarily for their acting ability but for their, er, plumbing. Don't compare yourself to them – it's pointless. +Challenge: You can't fill a shot glass with cum anymore. +Solution: First of all, does it matter? Are you in any contests? +But OK, let's say it's a matter of pride. Let's stipulate to your desire to pull out and impress her with your river of semen. Here's a trick that will work, giving you plenty of ammo for when you're ready to unleash the artillery: +Masturbate a few hours before you plan to have sex, but stop when you come close to the point of ejaculating. The sizable amount of semen produced by your prostate and seminal vessels will still be there a few hours later. Then when you do actually ejaculate during sex, you'll have your normal amount of semen in addition to the extra amount you built up masturbating – a double dose. Better have a towel nearby. +By the way, if the problem is low testosterone, which it probably isn't, your doctor can supply you with supplements, in the form of an injection or even a patch. Either one can significantly increase your rate of semen production. +Challenge: It takes a little too long before you're ready for action again. +Solution: Share a glass of wine or a cocktail with your lover. Alcohol has been shown to increase the arousal signals between your brain and your cock. Hold on though; one drink is enough. More may have the opposite effect by depressing your nervous system, making it more difficult to get an erection. +By the way, if you intend to have a night of passion, hold off on the ""self- love"" for a while. If you can stifle your masturbation for at least a few days and up to a week, you will not only be hornier than all get out, you'll have built up your stamina. You'll ejaculate more semen and have a shorter refractory period. But then, you probably knew that, right? Then get your hand off of there! +Challenge: You go from kissing to fucking in 5 minutes, and you're not floating her boat. +Solution: To start, remember that her breasts are the center of the universe, a direct link to ""Orgasm Central."" I've made a women cum by circling her nipples with my finger while we kissed, then coming in for a landing my gently squeezing her nipples during and after licking them. Believe it. Play with her breasts and she'll have wet underpants. Caution: some women's breasts are super-sensitive, so be gentle until you get to know what she likes. +Next: Here is one thing that you definitely will learn from the porn pros: vary your position. Missionary is fine to start if you like, but it doesn't hit the clit well unless you ride her high. Roll her over and try doggie, which lets you drive in real deep. Lay down yourself and let her get on top. Chances are, your cock will hit her pelvic floor, which can give her an intense orgasm – that's a fact. And while she's up there, gently massage her breasts. She'll be in la-la-land and think you're the lover of the century. +There are of course more tips I can give you, and definitely some you can give me (email me!), but let's start here.

Help for guys who wanna cyber.,[''],4.42,"Well, I already wrote about how to I stumbled into the wonderful world of cybersex...for those out there who want the benefit of my trial-and-error learning, I offer the following, for what it's worth! I've included a few personal anecdotes, but everyone's identity has been disguised. +First things first- How do you meet someone? +If you're female looking for a male partner, finding someone couldn't be easier...just make up a sexy and descriptive username and register on Literotica discussion boards...even if you don't post much, you'll probably find lots of charming invitations in your inbox soon. +(Personal anecdote- ""I want to [fill in the blank] you, email me"" is not the kind of charming invitation that is likely to get you an eager response, believe it or not) +I would imagine that the guys also get a certain amount of this...and they also seem to be pretty proactive about reading the boards and stories and sending private messages to say hi and see if they get a nibble. +My best advice...don't think about meeting someone...think of meeting someone compatible! +If you aim low, you might wish you hadn't bothered! Bad cyber can be just as bad, and nearly as awkward, as bad real-life sex! +(Personal anecdote- Having to limp through an encounter with a grammatically- challenged horny selfish demanding guy with an extremely limited vocabulary is enough to make anyone swear off cybersex for good...luckily, I am the stubborn type, and the next partner was a much better match) +Cybersex has some benefits that real-life sex doesn't have. Geography is not a problem (except for those pesky time differences). Age (providing you are both LEGAL) doesn't matter...as long as you don't mind taking some time to learn about/ explain age-related cultural references. Physical, um, discrepecies can basically be ignored. Essentially, cybersex relationships offer a great chance to get past all of the outside trappings- age, culture, geography, finances, what-have-you, that keep us apart as people, and get to know someone you might never have had the opportunity to meet in real life. +(Personal anecdote- and YES, you can become great real-life friends!! Let other people look at you weird because you look like you have nothing in common! Nope, he's not my student or my son...he's not even my Net BF anymore...he's graduated to being my FRIEND (withOUT benefits...LOL). When we met in person, it felt a bit strange at first, but once we started talking we laughed our BUTTS off...nice to find someone so compatible in spite of those silly outward differences...hi, Baby!) +The ONE best way to make sure that you have a positive experience with cybersex is to meet someone compatible from the start. That's easier said than done...most of us have to kiss a few (nice, sincere, but just NOT compatible) frogs along the way. Nothing wrong with that, but if you want to keep your frog ratio low, here are a few hints- +1) To up your odds of meeting a great match first time out, DON'T wait 'til you've had half a bottle of Chardonnay and need it bad to start looking. You CAN meet someone nice that way...after all, they are probably just feeling lonely and out there looking just like you...but there are probably better ways. If you DO manage to stumble into a meeting that is not what you had in mind, be kind!! Remember, it may be virtual sex, but the people and their feelings are REAL. +2) just like dating, look for somewhere that has a sexy atmosphere and nice people, rather than a cyber meatmarket. Literotica personals are great, or the discussion board, or the chatroom. If you have other recommendations, post and let folks know. +3) try to make a connection on a human level. If you read a story you love, write and compliment the author (no, that's not a hint, guys...my dance card is filled! You will get a polite thank-you, though), or if someone posts something that you relate to, send them a private message to say hi. +4) suss out the other person as much as possible BEFORE you contact them. Find out what they've written about themselves in their profile. Read their other posts. Read their stories. A little mystery can be nice, too, so don't write off people who haven't posted much info about themselves...some folks are shy. +5) don't be pushy!!! This is one of the worst ways to lose a nice potential partner. You don't know the other person's circumstances...but almost everyone on Earth has heard something creepy about online relationships. Respect their privacy, and if they don't reply to your messages, don't take it personally, and don't get hurt or upset...take the high road, and ride off into the sunset (to the Land of Mixed Metaphors!). +(Personal anecdote- I had a guy I thought I could trust THREATEN me!!! I IMMEDIATELY asked him to explain what the HELL he thought he was doing and why he would say such a thing to someone who had only shown him kindness. When he tried to make light of it, I broke it off with him. Be VERY careful about giving out personal information, and at the first HINT of creepiness, NAIL them on it...If they can't explain, buh-BYE!) +6) Let the other person keep control. In the case of online chat, that means to let your partner add you on Messenger without asking them to let you add them...unless they ask, or until after you know one another better. That way, they can block you unilaterally if they choose. +7) So, you've got yourself a potential cyberpartner...now what? Just like early dates, early chats are your chance to build a nice foundation for future hot times...and, if you are lucky, for a sweet, spicy, hot, healing relationship that will be great for both of you. Don't be pushy...be flirty and take things easy at first. At the same time, try not to ignore your partner's signals...if they are coming on too strong for you, say so, in a light, humorous way at first, but don't get pushed into anything that feels bad for you. If they drop a flirty hint, don't ignore it...respond in some way. Chatting, then chatting about sexy topics with a bit of flirting, and eventually letting nature take its course, and before you know it, you'll be having full-blown cybersex! If you guys skip all the steps and jump one another's virtual bones, don't get all freaked out! Never be afraid to email the next day and say ""wow! should we go back and tell each other our names?"" +8) Remember that the feelings involved can be 100% real...If you find yourself falling head over heels, remember that at least part of what you are falling for is your IMAGE of your partner. The better you get to know them, the more you will figure out that they are no more perfect than you are. Again, be kind. It's very nice to learn that it's possible to have a hot, bouncy, happy, healing sexual connection with a fellow flawed human being...heck, that knowledge might even carry over into your real life relationships. +For more of my thoughts on cybersex, especially ethical, emotional and technological issues, see my story, ""How to Break All the Cybersex Rules"" + _Comments are VERY welcome!

I had some difficulties figuring out to get started after a long break. +The following is a fictionalized version of how to best deal with pesky muses and their bothersome inspirations. I hope this entertains. +I was settling into a booth in a local coffee shop, getting ready to read a bit, order breakfast, and enjoy a good cup of diner coffee. Work has kept me busy the last four years. I changed jobs, then got promoted, and genuinely have enjoyed the benefits of a more upward mobile career than I had experienced in the previous five years. +I placed my iPad on the table, ordered a pitcher of coffee, and asked for a menu. I began reading a few blogs, then news, then slipped into Literotica to see if there were any new stores posted. +Soon after a gaggle of women entered the restaurant talking and giggling. I saw the blonde first, and blinked curiously. +""I knew her, didn't I?"" I thought to myself. +At that moment she turned and saw me, and pointed, ""There he is!"" and the rest of the group turned and headed to my booth. +I did a double take, and looked behind me at the empty diner, and then back to the approching foursome. +They stopped and my table and the lithe redhead slid beside me. She turned towards me and kissed me on the cheek, then shifted over my lap to sit near the window, still pressed against me. +""Hi Lexi,"" I sighed as I felt her gentle kiss, ""how are you."" +""Perfectly happy,"" she smiled as her head leaned on my shoulder. +Carmen slid in next to me and turned, and tugged on my beard. +""Ay Papi, grew it all the way out, huh?,"" she smiled and pulled my lips to kiss her, ""And so distinguished with the grey streak."" +She settled in beside me and rubbed her fingers up and down my thighs. +Kelly slid over into the other booth, and just smiled at me. +""I've missed you,"" she said, ""You never call, you never... Write."" +Then Alyssa slipped in besider her, and looked at me, before she pushed her glasses up her nose. +""We are here to discuss the latter,"" she said with a grin, ""In case it wasn't obvious."" +""My lack of writing?"" I asked with a sly grin. ""I write quite a bit, actually. It's just a shame it's mostly emails."" +""Too right,"" Kelly simpered, ""and you never send me any emails. I check it everyday, you know."" +""Well imaginary email addresses are notoriously unreliable,"" I parried and picked up my cup of coffee to enjoy a sip. +Alyssa looked at me, and wouldn't stop looking at me. +""What??"" I finally growled, startling the waitress. +""You're not real,"" I hissed, ""you're a figment of my imagination."" +""Are we though?"" Alyssa asked. +Carmen moved her hand and started feeling the shape of my manhood that was starting two grow. The lovely women that surrounded me and the small glimmer of a glow that Kelly emitted tended to have that effect. +""This seems real,"" Carmen said, with a smile, focusing her fingers on places that made it hard not to squirm. +""Look,"" I said sternly, ""I enjoy thinking about you, but I've moved on."" +Alyssa arched an eyebrow, ""That doesn't seem the case, does it Hank,"" she said simply, ""We are all right here."" +""We are always thinking of you,"" Kelly said then gave me a dazzling grin. +""Don't you remember that dream the other night,"" Lexi whispered in my ear, then licked along the lobe which made me quiver. +""Stop,"" I hissed, ""you know what that does to me!"" +""I certainly do,"" Carmen said as she curled her fingers around my expanded girth, ""I think he liked it."" +I sighed, part out of frustration, and part out of the true fact that Carmen was very good at what she does. I looked at Alyssa again. +""I'm stuck,"" I answered honestly, ""That last stint took it out of me, and each time I think about what's next I get stuck."" +""Show me what you've written,"" Alyssa asked and reached for my iPad, pressing her glasses back up her nose. ""Maybe I can help. You know I helped Jeremiah out of more than a few binds."" +""Wwwelll,"" I stammered, ""I haven't written much, but..."" +I swiped and tapped, opened up Google document and flipped open a little story I'd drafted a couple years ago, and turned the iPad around to face Alyssa. +She smiled and winked at me, then started to read, ""Oh this is about you Lexi,"" she said. +Lexi slipped onto the ground under the booth, then peaked up between Aly and Kelly, and leaned on her elbows as she read along. +""Mmmm.. Master,"" she said, ""I miss him, why isn't he here with us?"" +Carmen coughed, and caught Lexi's eye and I turned to see Carmen pointing at me. +""Jeremiah is a personification of,"" Alyssa started, then looked at me with a grin, ""Him."" +""Oh really,"" Lexi said as she continued reading, ""Mmmm, I think I like this story..."" and she squirmed on the bench across from me, her hand slipping beneath the edge of the table. +""She's right, you know."" Alyssa said, and waited for Lexi to finish reading before swiping up to the next section, ""It is good, you capture their dynamic so well."" +""Well,"" I shrugged bashfully, ""I try, but these are just my fantasies, there isn't much story there."" +""I do love your fantasies,"" Carmen whispered in my ear, ""That cabin scene in the lake, with the ropes, ... gawd makes me purr every time I read it."" +""You too?"" I asked and looked at Carmen. +She just looked at me with an arched brow, and broke out into laughter. +""We're just figments of your imagination..."" Kelly mimicked and giggled. +""Well I thought I wrote that part pretty well."" I stammered and looked at the fingers of my hands. +Alyssa reached for my hand and then I looked up into her eyes. +""You did write that part well."" She said, ""The whole story is wonderful. We just want you to continue. Did you write anything else?"" +I nodded and gulped to swallow a ball of emotion, opened a nee document then flipped the pad back to Alyssa. +""Oh, this is about Zac, Kel,"" Aly said and read raptly. +Kelly leaned over and wrinkled her nose, ""Yeah, he's painting my kid as some out of control sex god."" she huffed, ""No thank you."" +Aly looked at Kelly, ""Sweetheart, the whole first series was about you being an out of control sex goddess. It seems to follow that..."" +""Stop it,"" Kelly said sternly, ""He is my baby boy!"" and turned to look at the window stiff as a board. +""Seems like you have some good conflict to work through,"" Aly said looking back at me. +""Would you want to make her mad??"" I said tilting my head at the still fuming Kelly. +""Well, yes,"" Aly said, ""You'd have to be careful about that."" +She looked at me. +I looked at her. +She looked at me. +I looked at her. +""Well, if it's too much of a challenge,"" she said, ""We understand, c'mon girls."" +""No wait,"" I said and they froze, ""You think I could do it?"" +""Well, you did fashion an entire fictitious world that combined lore of myth, religion and modernity into a fairly refreshing read."" she said with a shrug. +""You could give it a go,"" she said simply, ""see what's there."" +""Well,"" I stammered, ""I'm busy with a lot of things..."" +""Oh of course, we wouldn't want to put you out."" Aly said and slid to the edge of the booth. +""Well wait,"" I said, ""I was thinking about, well what if..."" +Aly smiled and leaned to stand up, leaned over the table and kissed me on my forehead, and then slid out of the booth and stood up. +""That's what I want to hear, Hank."" she said, ""Just keep writing, and we'll see you in your dreams. +They disappeared and the waitress brought me my food. I started eating and then flipped back to the Literotica site and logged in. I thought to myself, let's see what's changed. +""Oh I can write right in the app, in my profile..."" I thought to myself as my fingers started taping out a stream of words, then sentences and paragraphs. +""Showed that muse who was boss, this time.""

But there are occasions when I get those emails or feedbacks that say, “You suck,” or “You are one twisted sick fucker and everything you write is a piece of shit and you’re going to burn in hell.” Now the question is how does one react to this. +I personally find myself growing angry every time I read one of those type of feedbacks. Simply because it is normally done anonymously and the person never has the nerve to put their name on it. Then I find myself chuckling because hey it means they read or at least scrolled to the end of the story to send this. +I try and never send that kind of feedback or if I am going to send negative comments I include positive ones of what an author did right and suggestions on how to improve in my opinion. But what should the average joe that doesn’t have many submissions on here and rarely gets feedback do the first time he receives a negative one. +Well you can do a number of things. First you can simply delete it and chalk it up to some chicken that doesn’t want you to email them back. Secondly, you can just laugh it off and if they provided any constructive criticism take it and learn from it. Maybe they are pointing out something about a style or wording that could help. Also another choice is to just give up writing or strive to do better. +Some people attack the higher ranked stories and send negative feedback to make themselves feel better. Making it look like it was a phantom striker and not someone of stature on this site. Others and there are a few out there attack the higher ranking stories because they hate to see anyone succeed. I have no idea if this is an author who just can’t produce anything better than average scores or if it is a rabid fan of one of the better author’s and they are trying to secure a spot for their favorite. +Who knows what leads to this. But if you get negative feedback I suggest you do what I do. I have a separate folder for just those feedbacks and I save them all and go back and look over them when I need a laugh or I get to high and mighty about the work that I am doing and need a reality check. It means someone hates your work and you haven’t succeeded in pleasing everyone so you have to strive a little harder to make them enjoy. +I also like to print the most recent ones off and read them to my significant other and listen to what she thinks. Sometimes she will tell me yes, they are right you screwed that story up by doing this or that. Or she will just let me know that in retrospect I have only gotten ten pieces of hate mail for about every 20 stories. Most of them coming for one story or another. But best of all she will slide over and kiss me and tell me that she loves what I write and since it makes me happy don’t worry about one or two hateful people and think about the many others that send feedback positive and with there names in hope of a response or just letting me know that they loved the work. +I must say one of my greatest pleasures in dealing with negative feedback is to converse with other authors on this site and having a giggle over them. We all get them at least once and it shouldn’t bring anyone down. Even the bible has received negative comments from different fractions over the centuries. So see anyone can find something negative with any work. +But as I said I look through all the positive feedbacks I have saved from my stories here and they outweigh the one or two negatives. I am lucky in the respect that an author I truly admire, is a big fan of my work and never fails to let me know what she thinks of each piece. She has also thrown in her negative comments where she saw something wrong but always in a positive manner. +To her, Maggie thank you for being a constant stable in my education and writing on this site without your positive feedbacks at times I would feel useless. And to all the fans that will send negative or positive feedback for my works this included thank you. I just love those feedbacks." +329,How to Deal with Writers Block,JagFarlane,How To,2013-02-21,2013-02-21,2022-01-04 08:30:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-deal-with-writers-block,My take on dealing with writers block.,"['Creativity', 'Stress', 'Writers']",4.38,"I think as a writer one of the biggest hurdles that potential authors face is writers block and while this is a topic often beat to death by many accomplished writers I'm still going to throw in my two cents cause well, I'm a writer and I can. While on Lit I'm rather new to publishing stories in another life I've written quite a bit and have spent a large amount of time hanging out with other writers. Having done that I think the majority of writers block tends to fall into two categories, both of which cause an immense amount of stress in authors; negative feedback and other authors. We tend to pay a bit too much attention to those things and really need to refocus attention and thoughts. +Writing is an art form, and pretty much the only one I'm any good at, sometimes I get lucky with a decent photo or drawing but for the most part it's writing that I enjoy the most. As such it's special to me, and it's a form of relaxation to just sit down and write. Like many writers I enjoy getting feedback, be it positive or negative and I really do enjoy my readers. I am in awe at some of the emotions that people have felt at my writing and the time people spend to write a constructive comment. This isn't the feedback I'm referring to, instead we need more of that sort of feedback and to each reader who makes the effort to give constructive or positive feedback I thank you deeply. +To post their work is often a very emotional decision that writers make, we're putting ourselves out there and that leaves us vulnerable to folks who like to troll the boards and seem to take joy in nothing less than shredding a carefully constructed story for the simple need to hurt someone else. These people sadly do exist and even worse really have done some harm to people full of potential. It is these people that I refer to. Writers, first and foremost I think there are those who really need to either develop a little thick skin or at the least learn to not read those sort of comments. It is a shame that they exist, yes, but unfortunately if you read any comments section on the internet you're bound to find them. +Developing a little thick skin is the first line of defense, don't take it personally but not everyone is going to see within your story exactly what you see. You can leave a line meant to mean one thing and someone will perceive it another way, if you're lucky they'll leave feedback that helps you to understand that. Appreciate that feedback, it is constructive even if it hurts a little that they misunderstood what you meant. But if the feedback is just trashing you in general with no constructive points to it, odds are it was someone trolling and felt the need to say something nasty for whatever reason it was, ignore them and don't let them ruin your joy at writing. +One final thing on feedback is don't take scores too personally, for one people do like to push down scores of writers for whatever reason. If your story suddenly nosedives odds are someone decided they needed to push your scores down. I usually don't take scores seriously for at least two weeks and even then a month or so should really be given to wait and see if sweeps clear up the scores. This is especially important in contests as people will try to prop up the scores of stories they loved or push down stories of scores they disliked. In regards to the contests, no score will really be correct until the management unleashes the final standings. +Other authors seem to also be a serious stressor for newer authors particularly when it comes to offering advice on writers block. My advice is simple when it comes to this, stop listening to everything some says. Do this for at least a couple of days, appreciate some other forms of creativity such as reading a book, watch a movie, listen to music, or go to an art show but do not try to force the creativity. There are some fantastic writers on this site, and most of them mean well when they offer advice on how to stir up the juices but if you notice one thing, just about all of them have something different that they do and that's really the point of this advice, everyone is different. +When it's not feedback that kills the muse it's people trying to force the muse to work. Muses are fickle, they will strike and leave when they feel like it so embrace it when it's around but when it's not try to create a fertile environment which will make it want to return. All too often we try to force it with exercises and whatnot, really that just seems to be forcing something that should be invited in. It's not just writers, I've watched photographers try it and to be honest it tends to show with the folks who embrace the environment and those who force the creativity. So stop it, just really stop it, take a breath and allow yourself to relax into creativity, it will come when it wants to and the more often you encourage it by surrounding yourself with creativity the more it will come. +Basically though, authors like other creative people tend to allow themselves to be hurt by negative feedback and trying too hard to force things vice allowing the creativity to flow. I won't guarantee this advice will work, everyone is different but much like how we're all different this advice seems to be a bit different than what is often preached. If you still find yourself struggling though, come to the Authors Hangout in the forums, there are plenty of folks more than willing to share their advice and tips.

Using it as a guide, will assist writers in crafting the basic structure of a storyline. This article offers advice on what professional editors and writers have found to work for them across varied styles of writing -- from manuscripts, short stories, and novels to Literotica's erotic works. The provided information will help writers hook readers into coming back for their well-crafted stories. This primer is a good starting point for budding authors and a refresher course for intermediate writers. +The primary focus of this article is on structured writing, although it touches on the stream of conscious writing technique as well, to some extent. I write about and provide story excerpts to illustrate the concepts and elements of a good story structure including descriptive writing. +Your desire and intent to communicate does guide your will to write. As a writer of short stories or novels, your goal should be to provide your readers with a well-crafted story. One that draws them into the intriguing plot line via their attraction to the characters and the situations in which those characters find themselves. The outcomes of those interactions must flow logically through any twists or turns in the plot right through the resolution of the story. Bearing in mind, that not all resolutions necessarily have successful conclusions. + **COMMUNICATION** \-- That's What Writing is About +Without a desire to communicate, you have no bridge between your inner thoughts and the rest of the world around you. It takes bravery to take that next step and publish. It is the baring of your conscience to unknown souls: the merciful few who encourage you, and the occasional handful who enjoy flagellating your flesh while they hide behind 'anonymous.' That protective tag line they are afforded in the box beneath your request for commentary regarding your masterpiece! Of course, you could just turn that Literotica commentary box off -- but, then you aren't open to communication, are you? +For the sake of this missive, I'll take a leap of faith and say that you are open to suggestions and are at the point of submitting a story to Literotica. Are there suggestions that could help you, encourage you even, to not just hover over the submit button, but to hit that submission button with confidence? +The right hand that hovers there as you hesitate and ask yourself, 'Is this my best effort?

Novel writing has more components; therefore, that's a topic for another missive. +If you are reading this and have not started writing -- lucky you! +I believe this article will help you through that process. If you have started, or are at the end of your work and haven't hit the submit button, then let's look at your work. Even, if it's already finished -- lucky you, too! +Robert Lee Brewer's blog speaks of two types of writers using a catchy set of terms that I came across: 'pantsers' and 'plotters.' +The 'pantsers,' he says, are writers that write by ""...the seat of their pants."" a free form of writing. While 'plotters' approach story or novel writings in a more structured approach using mapping techniques to flush out the story and characters. Both are valid approaches that apply to short story creations as well. When I first started writing those terms were known as 'stream of consciousness writing' and 'mapping.' In this missive I lean toward the plotters, especially for most of us as neophytes or beginners. Its approach is like spreading oil on the waters to help calm the writing jitters a bit. + **WRITING FROM A 'PLOTTER'S PERSPECTIVE'** \-- A Mapping Exercise +1.Did you write an outline? Good! +2.Does it have the three basic parts? You did check for continuity among them, right? +3.Did you interview your characters for their roles in your story? Hum, ... What's that? Didn't hear you say you held auditions to see if they really qualified for a part in your story! +If the answers to any of those questions are 'no.' Hold off on hitting that Literotica 'submit button!' +Master writers and master teachers of writing highly encourage the use of outlining your story or masterpiece. It is a writer's aid to reigning in wayward spin-off themes or actions that are not relevant to the main theme. +Then, perhaps more importantly, are the qualifications of your characters. Those are critical in gaining acceptance of your brainchild by your readers. It's critical that you spend the time and energy to make your story people as real as the persons with whom you share dinner. A reader should be able to turn the page and be damn surprised that the character is able to crawl out of your storyline and sit next to them—explaining what transpires, as the reader fully engages your well-crafted journey to the point of resolution. +First, let's tackle the easier of the two -- the outline. Later we will address the more difficult one -- the characters' development. + **WHY AN OUTLINE?** +For starters, few writers, even seasoned ones, are capable of spontaneously crafting a story that stays on task and flows well from beginning to end without adding serious post-draft editing time. If you have already dabbled in writing, you probably know how difficult it is to chop off even one participle from something you toiled over so laboriously! Even if you find the story has lost traction or spun off the primary theme and down a rabbit hole, you are going to be reluctant to reach down that hole and pull it back out! +Using an outline, will help reduce post editing time, according to the experts; almost all of them! [That means less reaching into the hole and grasping the furry critter by its ears and yanking him back into the correct part of the story—or possibly, just covering the hole and leaving him to his demise entirely! The latter would be a true waste of your time.] + **PERSPECTIVES ON OUTLINES** +1.Professional writing coaches encourage you to develop a plot line, beginning, middle, and ending -- that sketching out of the setting and character introduction, the flushing out of how the plot develops, and finally, how it gets resolved; also known as the conclusion. +2.Having an outline gives you a bird's eye view of your story. You have a road map to follow. At least you know at the onset, you have the three key components in place. It steers your story and keeps it from wandering off into the wilderness and finding readers closing out of it before they reach your wonderful ending. +3.Certainly, you can modify and change those elements as your story evolves. They are not set in stone—unless you say so! +4.Prepare the outline -- no matter how simple -- and you have a road map to what generations of readers expect from a good story. That road map has three components: +a.an intriguing beginning, +b.a well-thought-out plot, and +c.a resolution or closure that emotionally satisfies the reader +5.Outlining your story to reach a logical resolution will tie all the elements together; from beginning to end. It is your road map without having to peer in the rearview mirrors to see what you missed along the way in developing your storyline. +Emily Wilson, a writing specialist with Scribendi Inc., a Canadian publishing company, describes writing quite well in her article entitled, '5 Healthy Writing Habits (For Less Stress and Better Writing). She writes, ""In many ways, writing is more like being a wilderness guide than a reclusive creative genius. As a writer, it's your responsibility to guide your reader through your text. Moreover, depending on who your reader is, you must design a route that is either well-reasoned and orderly or laden with carefully constructed twists, turns, and compelling mysteries."" +In other words Literotica writer, you are the tour guide on your story's road map and it's your job to make sure the readers arrive safely and are comfortably entertained at the end of your tale. Not scratching their heads and wondering what the ... was that all about ... or who was doing what to whom? +I wrote and published my first novel here on Literotica. It took four weeks of time to piece together the storyline and define all the components. Another three months of a labor of love in writing the first draft of that tome. Longer still to edit it, until it reached the point that I felt it was my best effort. +I had an anonymous commenter write, ""Long and ... stupid! Quantity and skill with putting words together do not justify reading a 21 page story about dribble."" A counter comment to that critique said it was wonderful and I shouldn't change a thing! +Who is right? The answer — it may surprise you — is that the correct answer lies in the writer's choice. You, as the writer, have the choice to accept either; or neither, and discard both knowing that in your own mind you submitted your best effort to your personal satisfaction standards. You wrote this story for your own satisfaction first and decided to share it with others for their enjoyment as a secondary consideration. +[Writer's note: A WicKed Metamorphosis is 181 pages in Microsoft Word covering about 74,500 words -- 21 Literotica pages. If you write here on Literotica you will come across such comments occasionally. If you believe you gave it due diligence, then you can move on; knowing not everyone enjoys the taste of your tea. Note: that novel is currently wearing a lip-stick red 'HOT' tag and is rated at 4.6 by readers. Not too bad for my first novel effort.] +Ms. Wilson goes on to say, ""If you don't know where you're going, you cannot guide someone else there effectively (let alone do it with style). Outlines force you to always keep your destination in mind, ... with an outline in mind [it] increases your chances of enjoying a stress-free writing process and encourages you to be clearer and more concise in your writing."" +Now, that's a real truism! Although, I wouldn't say that your actual writing would be stress-free, altogether. + **THE OUTLINE IS HALF THE ANGST** \-- You still have more to go! +Having the basic three parts of a story outlined is half the mental stress! +Once you can see your carefully outlined pathway through the forest to the meadows beyond, you are halfway to your goal. The high-level cognitive gymnastics you jumped through to build the three stages will be well worth it. You will have just jumped through eight functions that your brain uses: thinking, listening, learning; to understand, justify, question, and pay close attention. Talk about stress! +Now, with your abbreviated notes on how you want the story to unfold, you can begin addressing the details. It's time to look at the individual elements of the outline and the aspects of good story writing each contains. + **THE BEGINNING OF A STORY** \-- Opening Storyline, Setting, and Character Development +One tip, blogger Rachel Kramer Bussel offers in '5 Writing Tips for Getting Your Erotic Short Stories Published in Anthologies' is to make, ""... your story stand out with a bang ... or using an attention-getting writing style ... or sexual practice or type of sex toy that most people know nothing or very little about."" As an editor for the anthologies she publishes, she encourages writers ""... to differentiate their story from all the others ..."" +Create 'a hook' that catches and draws your reader immediately into the story. Spend the time to carefully craft an opening to your story and it is less likely that a reader peruses a couple of paragraphs and goes off in search of a more entertaining story among the thousands of other Literotica submissions. If you didn't create an outline and your hook gets placed at the middle or end of the story — well you know what happens! You may just have lost a potential reader of your other creations down the road. Not to mention the current one that the reader quickly exited for lack of finding a good hook! +Set the hook well enough and they are drawn into your story; becoming captivated by it. It's likely they may 'favor it' and be more likely to 'follow you' as your writing progresses. You have them waiting, holding their collective breaths, for the next story knowing your work is well differentiated from the run-of-the mill stories on Literotica. Caring writers use their previous works as learning tools to improve their future works. +[My apologies to those who read this and feel I'm shaming their Literotica published work — that's not my intention. I'm certain that much of what is published on this site didn't get the scrutiny of the type I am putting forth in this missive. Writing is always an evolving and learning process toward improvement! Like a doctor's practice and diagnoses; they get better with experience and a keen eye to editing the next one using more scrutiny that the last story!] +The first story I chose to illustrate the elements of writing that are addressed in this article is from my only entry, as of November 1, 2021, in satire/humor; a sparse reading area of Literotica. It posted on September 30th, 2021. By October 31st, it has been viewed 2.9K times; and scores 4.68 by 269 raters. In one month, almost 3,000 people viewed my story — not to say they all read it. Some may have found it not to be their cup of tea; but 269 of them must have — they rated it, nicely for me! +The planning time on task took about five hours including: the beginning, the plot, and the conclusion. That time included the incubation period to figure out the characters, their motives, what the plot would be and how I wanted the characters to engage with one another. It was not done in one five hour block. It was 'chunked out time periods.' Spread out over a day of 'incubation on storyline development and mapping.' +Once the outline was drafted then the total time spent in writing the first draft was about ten days' time on task -- three to four hours per day. Final draft, before I hit the publish button -- two more days of combing for errors, polishing dialog, and transition alignments! The story consists of 17,500 words -- 37 MS Word pages. Yet, there are still a few mistakes in it after publishing! +This is my opening hook to 'Life is Like Shit -- Not Chocolate,' about a guy down on his luck. It took about an hour of keyboard time to structure this brief opening: + _The music was thumping out of that old jukebox in the corner, but nobody was dancing to my bucket of quarters. Who does that at 5:30 when the joint is half full or half empty; depending on how you look at it? The music was just some noise to drown out my errant thoughts of suffering grief. Most guys in here are on their way home to a house full of kids and a flagging, loving woman caught up with rug rat chores at the wind-down of a long day. They just needed a mug of courage to make it all the way home._ +Me? Just chilling after a hard day's labor; before starting my second job of the day. No one is waiting for me to come home to kiss or to hug. I'm just sitting on my favorite stool covered in house construction sawdust and looking pretty much like a weary old man - 'cept I'm not old; just weary. +My best bartender friend was just wiping up some spilt beer at MY end of the bar. The corner that still needed a sign saying, 'Commiserating Corners - Open for Business.' At least that was the one I thought about hanging up there today. This is my corner. My stool. My time of the evening to unwind. Tomorrow, well there could be a different sign, but just now this one fits my mood just fine. Everyone here has a spot, even though there's no name tag on it. Like cattle lining up at the evening feed trough for grain -- each of us has our own place to suck down some suds before calling it a day. Don't take a man's place at the trough if you're new here -- that just ain't right. +This opening begins in Danny's own voice as he tells his story. Alludes to something that has happened to put him in this situation. Gives us a glimpse of his social status as a construction worker. A barstool loner. By the third paragraph I suspect several readers were asking themselves: Who is this grieving guy and why is he suffering? Why isn't there anyone at home to hug or kiss? Why is the weary, young, lonely fellow looking for someone to commiserate with him? +Everybody knows somebody like this! I think the opening created an empathetic hook in some readers right away — just with a few brush strokes. +The setting is the place in your outline to introduce the main character(s). Sketch out her or his chief characteristics along with the cohorts -- wanton, bubbly, brutish, and some physical aspects so that readers can begin to identify with the characters once you begin to develop the plot. At least indicate the primary character's personality traits in your notes as you flush out your introduction. Paint a clear picture of the background for the storyline. Sketch these into your outline as well with some descriptive terms so readers get a sense that the setting is real; at least real enough to believe it could be visited! +TadOverdon, a Literotica Guru, in a forum discussion addresses characters saying, ""I usually have a pretty clear image of my major female characters, and then I'll go look for visual material like pictures of actors or porn performers that fit the image. +""They're never ideal matches, naturally, but that's not the point. Often, it's a matter of someone having the right expression or physical attitude. Sometimes it's hair color and age. Physical type, eye color and so on are less important. But it does help to have an image to ""pin"" to."" + **CHARACTER NAMING** +Take care in naming your characters; often a unique name helps a reader to remember the character. Try not to tag them: Rachel and Raquel, or James and Jimmy; such similar names can make it difficult for readers to mentally differentiate them when the two characters interact; even if you have well defined them. Get to know them — intimately as though they are at least your well-known cousins if not closer! Stew over them a bit — memorize their warts, their petulant or optimistic moods, their idiosyncrasies, and then tackle the next writing element — the plot. +K.M. Weiland, a published writer, offers her free 40 pages plus, eBook on developing characters. It's called 'crafting unforgettable characters.' It is what I have come to call a 'golden nugget' of useful information; something to store away and make use of in future writings. You can Google her name and find the eBook or check at the end of this missive for her website. It is a real treasure trove of information containing character development worksheets she generously created and allows you to download. It would help new writers, and experienced ones as well, to make their characters believable — down to what they were thinking as they stepped in front of a bus! [That bus thing is not actually in her eBook; I just added it here to entertain you for a moment!] + **SETTING DEVELOPMENT** +As to the setting, for example, if you are writing a story set in Atlanta and have not been there; just Google it -- find some noteworthy streets, or a few famous places, notable buildings, or restaurants, and slip them into your story as the characters met there; or drive by them on the way to a major event in the story. I slipped in a famous hotel and a best restaurant that was dimly lit, had a dress code, and didn't allow cowboy hats. I read that in a review of the restaurant. [I Googled famous Atlanta hotels and best restaurants in Atlanta; looked on a map to see if they were near each other; before I put them into the storyline] I wrote those names and descriptions into my storyline. The places appear within my characters' dialog lines! +The dim lighting information caused my scene to change from its original form and worked to better the story. The gunshots scene couldn't be readily described by nearby seated guests; too dark, they told the police detectives, to see how it happened. It added realism for the readers on how the scene played out for the diners that evening. +That's permitted in story writing by the way, to mention the landmarks' names or that characters meet at those locations — just don't claim it is a run-down seedy joint and disparage the place if it's not that way — just do that to your characters, if they deserve such treatment! +This is a partial excerpt of that golden nugget of intel gathering via google in my Noir styled story, 'Life is Marked In Milestones.' The storyline picks up with Rachel's conversation, told with that noir sparse nature of writing and speaking. ++++++ + _""You are coming, right?""_ +""Yes, I promised, remember. I always keep my promises."" +I thought about Daddy's answer. It was true -- always. That was one thing he was good at. Well two things -- he could fuck really well also. +""Okay, when?"" +""Noon, Saturday. I'll see you about 1:00 by the time I get out of the airport. What would David like to do?"" +""He wants to go riding. He's never been on a horse. I booked some time for us at a riding stable. Dinner afterward at The Capital Grille. It's off of ..."" +""I know the place, ..."" He cut in, seeming to be in a hurry. +'Of course, you would know the place. You know all the good places!' I thought. +""... dark lighting, but great food. Be sure to bring a change of clothes for you and David. It has a dress code. No cowboy hats allowed."" ++++++ +See what research gets you? Hard to imagine I could have made up the dress code and cowboy hats or even have thought to include that tidbit to create a touch of realism in the story line. Was it déjà vu that David's mother booked a horse riding experience and I found the restaurant had a dress code and no cowboy hats allowed? [Guess, you might be thinking that David would be wearing a cowboy hat, right? Of course, he would, after I did the research!] +Electricblue66, another Literotica Guru speaking about settings on the forum, offers another golden nugget, ""I've always been of the view that if you anchor a story with a grain of truth, however small, readers will spot it (consciously or subconsciously) and suspend a thousand yards of disbelief. The corollary is also true."" +My interpretation of her remark is, that adding a landmark to your story -- doesn't mean all of what you speak about it must be 100% accurate. Just enough to evoke a belief in the reader that it's a real element that adds plausibility to your storyline. +M.K. Weiland says, ""Beginnings are all about character. If the reader doesn't find your character interesting, why should he stick around to follow this same boring character through the next 300 pages, no matter how brilliant your final plot twist may be? Readers aren't going to waste their time on characters that aren't brimming with life—and neither should we as writers."" +Ms. Weiland does address setting the hook as well in a storyline as she writes, ""It's no wonder, of course, that beginnings are difficult when you consider their weight in the overall story. Beginnings must accomplish all the following: +• Give the readers a reason to care about what happens to the characters. +• Plant an irresistible hook. +• Introduce overall tone (satiric, dramatic, etc.). +• Introduce setting (time and place), conflict, and possibly theme."" +""In short, the beginning of every story is rather like a résumé. You flaunt your talents and hope the reader finds what he's looking for. Otherwise, you're never going to make it off the bookstore shelf."" +Or as I noted earlier, your potential reader may scan a couple of paragraphs looking for something interesting to catch her/his eye. And if, as a writer, you do not provide some interesting eye candy, he or she will scroll through thousands of other Literotica stories looking for an appetizing hook to while away the hours. Leaving your story sitting on the Literotica's alphabetical list instead of in the vaulted red HOT category, or even better in the most read category; or even better still, in the Editor's pick category! + **THE MIDDLE -- ALSO KNOWN AS THE PLOT** \-- Where the Characters and Storyline Unfolds +Here, your outline contains notes of the character engagements with one another and the reasons they are involved with one another. It answers the traditional newspaper interrogatives: Who, When, Where, What, How, and the all-important Why - did this happen! +This section is where your credibility and believability as a writer shine. At this point, your life, as a writer is at stake -- [sorry a bit overly dramatic maybe -- but it is important!] +Readers are expecting your story to be at least in the realm of plausibility (except for sci/fi). They expect it to unfold with some sense of consistency, progression, or have clearly structured flashback or flash forward scenes that are readily apparent. You are building your characters, taking your readers down your guided tour of what happens to them. Explaining why it happens; and the consequences of their actions or lack of actions. You are invoking the reader's emotional concern for those individuals and their situations. You want them to be so real and vivid that readers are identifying with them. 'Rooting for the good -- hissing for the not so good' if that's applicable to the storyline. +K.M. Weiland adds in her article 'crafting unforgettable characters,' ""From the very first page, we have to give the readers a character they can't get out of their heads ... [and] is giving the reader a reason to care about the characters."" +This is the story writing area where readers soak up the individualities, their temperaments, and frailties. It engages your characters with one another as your plot unfolds. Readers are drawn to those emotional moments where decisions must be made and the consequences drive the thoughts, as well as the next course of actions that carry the theme toward resolution. +To get to that level you must have done your due diligence in creating your characters' personalities, attributes, attitudes, and make them truly believable. That is a paramount cornerstone to nail down in your storyline. +[Not, hopefully, in one paragraph where they are introduced as, 'My cousin John, is a 7' tall linebacker, 292 lbs., size 56 jacket and narrow at the hips with a 12"" deep purple headed, throbbing wang ... that I fell in love with.""] +This is where John's character must be built up a brush stroke at a time as he interacts with others. For instance, mentioning hair color as the character exits a door into the sunlight. Or describing a lady's delicate fingers meticulously done with frost tipped fingernails as she picks up a glass of wine; that sort of buildup. Even a posterior description or clothing visual presentation as someone turns and walks away, creates a wonderful observation point to script that alluring scene. Just -- don't lump all the physical attributes in a compressed crackerjack box and let that be the only time and place you engage your readers with your character's description. +For example, this extract from a scene comes when the garage lights are powered on after a monstrous rainstorm downed the electrical power ... just after Danny rescues a lone bike rider. He thought she might be a young girl. Until, finally they see each other in brightly lit circumstances. From this scene we get to know a bit more about Jackie Wilson and her physical features and nationality and learn of Danny's instant attraction. ++++++ + _I could tell by her attitude she knew I was mesmerized by the sight of her. How could a man not be smitten by her beauty? Her tee-shirt was plastered to her skin and her nipples clearly showed. No damn bra hiding those perky pears! Her cutoff shorts did a good job of carving a deep V-shape right at her camel- toe. Damn! She looked just like an Asian American version of Daisy Duke -- just more Asian, you know? She wasn't a bit bashful and smiled again._ +It was a damn bright one that said, _'I get that look a lot, Danny boy.'_ + _""Twenty-four."" She said out of nowhere. I swear she was a damn mind reader! I was thinking it but wasn't going to ask her age._ +""Jackie, you look like a drowned rat!"" + _I chuckled observing the water dripping down those soft Asian American features. As I spoke, she turned reaching into the truck and switched the engine off then killed the headlights. She had the longest straight black hair I'd ever seen. It streamed down over her shoulders to her lower back. It must be holding a gallon of water at this point as it is plastered to her thin tee shirt. Jackie is that wonderful blend of Asian and American features with a perpetual suntanned skin color and dark coco eyes. I felt a smile cross my face. The first I'd had in a very long time. My eyes stayed glued to her ass, until she turned back around._ ++++++ +The character development and physical attributes can easily spread over several scenes. The first story I mentioned, for example, has these attributes for Mr. Wilson and a mystery woman that Danny describes in a light brush stroke of information. His internal dialog also adds to Danny's character development: ++++++ + _I watched that great big oak tree rise off that stool -- caught a glimpse of a badge pinned to his belt just under his leather jacket. Snickered to myself -- hell, I just told my story to Marshall Wyatt Earp! He strolled over to a table where a petite woman with really long, long hair just sat down with her back to me and facing the doorway. She was doing one of those 'read the room moves' with her head. I thought, 'Lucky bastard, you got someone to hug tonight.'_ ++++++ +Rachel Kramer Bussel, as a reader, speaks to this character development rather masterfully, saying ""I want to get inside the characters head in a memorable way and be swept away by all the physical sensations and emotional reactions they're having in that moment."" +As an editor, she wants to know the characters intimately, ""But without giving a stale monologue or tedious backstory, I want to know, through their words and actions and thoughts, what's going on for them, especially during erotic scenes."" +Adding, as a frequent editorial comment she makes on sexual scenes: _""How did it feel?""_ +There are several sex scenes in my story that might illustrate this question. I believe this one fits Rachel Kramer Bussel's answer as it is from Jackie's inner voice after Danny rescues her. This sex scene follows Jackie's initial need to dominate and ride Danny to overcome the effect of an earlier life- threatening event. The second sex session is mild, sensual, and expressive of what both needed at this point in the story. Listen to her voice telling us about that second session via internal dialog — not back and forth dialog with Danny. ++++++ + _The second, comforting ride belonged to Danny. I almost turned to jello at that point. He rolled me over onto my back. My breathing was still just under a marathon runner's gasp for air. He wasn't in a hurry. His gentle hands slid beneath my shoulder blades and his fingertips curled up over my clavicles; gripping me. I felt his breath over my eyelids in the darkness -- then he kissed each one lightly. Those lips turned hungry when they found mine and our tongues entwined for a few moments before I surrendered and let him suck my tongue into his mouth. I felt my body melting beneath him. All 103 pounds pressed into the mattress until he lifted himself up onto his elbows._ +Thousands of years of instinct flowed through my body. My legs drew upward taking on the butterfly pose. Opening them like welcoming wings. I welcomed his penetration. I know he felt the tension drain. That's when he moved, tenderly, slowly as the rains outside poured down against the windows. He built the lust back up into a flame again; until my hips matched him thrust for thrust. Finally, I heard his groans as he spued forth his own version of rain into me, as sweat dripped from our bodies. We came in subdued silence. Just the huffs of our breathing sounded along with the rampaging storm outside. +We had perfected the ancient euphemism 'Clouds and Rain'- the blending of male and female, sky, and earth, and created rain -- the product of a climax between a couple engaged in sensual intercourse. ++++++ +Do you believe you could tell how Jackie Wilson felt from her climatic scene at this point in the storyline? Did you note the Asian ethnic link to the euphemism? Did you miss all the 'inserted tab A into tab B' banal sex references you read in Literotica? I hope not! Was this scene captivating? +I think it met Ms. Bussel's test of how the character felt in the moment. +Scribendi's blog article also addresses character development in this manner, ""What's going on inside his head? Does he have an inner life? You, as the author, need to express his thoughts, his way of looking at things, his inner conflicts. You can do this through dialogue with another character, or you can simply show the character's thoughts to the reader through his own inner dialogue. When you go into a character's thoughts, you deepen him, and he becomes more real."" +The paragraphs below are indicative of that inner thought dialogue scenario. Danny is seeping with emotional turmoil -- the kind that builds empathy with readers. ++++++ + _The second day, after Momma was off to see her sister, I was alone in a quiet, empty house. The quietness of it all began to seep into soul. I left the television off. The silence felt so damn good. I needed that feeling it gave me. A feeling of relief seemed to flow through my bones. It felt really good to be alone - even if was only going to be for two weeks. Maybe this blessing would give me some self-analysis time. The library books I'd taken out to read about divorce trauma sat on the bedside table. My eyes started to water as I read. I could see myself on most of the pages. They got wet as I slowly turned and read about myself on each one; roof leak I guess; how else would the moisture get there? Funny, I didn't remember it raining outside._ + **Readers Want to Identify with Your Characters** +Readers identify with characters that come to life. Characters that have emotions, conflict, or flaws the reader can identify with — not so much if they appear in a storyline as two-dimensional wallpaper stickies. Those types of characters are the ones your readers will have problems keeping track of as they digest the actions. A reader cannot readily associate the names of emotionally detached characters in compressed action scenes and keep them straight in their minds as they engage in the reading process. Particularly when those two-dimensionals having throbbing body parts [Tab A] going in someone else's parts [Tab B]. And the reader finds herself or himself stopped in the middle of an intense sexual session trying to figure out who they are -- and why they are doing that to each other! If a reader, or a writer in review of the plot, must stop to figure that out then -- that's bad writing you just waded through! + **CHARACTER AND PLOT DEVELOPMENT COMPLETED** \-- You are Two-thirds of the Way Home! +When you master the creation of character development and have an interesting or unique plot to support them you are two-thirds of the way to a successful storyline development! +Congratulations! ++++++ +TAKE A BREAK! You deserve it! +How to Develop a Good Story 01 +by Donald Mallord +Copyright 2021, All Rights Reserved +This is an important note about making time to take a break. Relax a bit. Step away from your favorite writing tool. By now, writing fatigue has set in and your eyes are blurry from staring at the dark screen feature of your computer screen. +Take a pointer from Emily Wilson, ""... consider giving the Pomodoro Technique a try. This popular technique involves focusing for a 25-minute chunk of time before giving yourself a five-minute refresher break. It can be very effective if you have many distractions in your workspace, such as kids, that require frequent attention."" +Emily's advice is still good even if you have no distractions. The mind and your eyes need that time away from a health and mental perspective as well. [Please, no children reading over your shoulders - asking, 'Hey, isn't that a bad word?' while you are writing that Literotica masterpiece!] ++++++ + **THE CONCLUSION** \-- Rounding up all the characters and seeing daylight at the end of the tunnel. +This is where many writers have reached the end of the road. Both literally and figuratively. They have run out of thoughts or desire and just put a period at the end of that last word -- calling it finished. It's the point where they can see the daylight at the end of the tunnel and are in a rush to finish. Perhaps going at it for five hours straight and are just anxiously waiting to run that final spell check, that grammar thing again, and log into Literotica to post the masterpiece. +Wait! +Please, Literotica writing aficionado, hold off a moment -- there is more to go! +'You can't beat a dead horse and make it go!' My great-grandpa used to say at the end of long day of plowing. +Just as you are not going to be able to pound out a well-crafted story if you are not at your best or have just chunked together a 10,000-word storyline and said a writer's prayer that it is, hopefully, done. +Besides, your anxious fingers aren't ready, just yet, to hit submit. Remember, I said that before! There are a few things yet to come -- editing for example. But first let's get the Conclusion stage on paper or computer screen. + **THE STORY ENDING ELEMENTS** \-- the Conclusion or Resolution Stage of Writing +Breathe deeply and run the story through your mind again up to this point. Ask yourself: +1.""Did I 'hook them' with an exciting or intriguing opening in the setting stage? Did the characters come to life and capture the hearts of someone who would read this story early on rather than toward the end? +2.Was there a point of conflict or mental struggle she/he overcame or failed to overcome as an appropriate action that drew the reader into the story? +3.Did I leave any loose ends hanging that didn't get resolved? Is there a tie to the beginning scene that brings closure to the mind of the reader?"" +4.When I put in that last punctuation mark, do I believe the storyline slaked the reader's mental and emotional fulfillment -- their pleasure at finishing the resolution portion of the story? +5.Did I make the adjustments I believe personally, as a writer now, that I should have said or added that would possibly make this a better ending? +6.Ask the girl or guy in the mirror, ""Is this your personal best effort? Don't look down! Look at me when you answer, baby."" The chief editor is going to ask you! +If the answers to those questions are yes. Then look at your outline and notes making sure the conclusion ties those elements together in a logical manner for the reader. The reader should have made this journey with you at this point and at your ending -- they should feel resolved just as the characters do as you put this story to bed -- as they say in the newspaper business. +So simple ... so far! +Rather than giving away the ending from the current story I am using to illustrate this missive ... You will have to go read the ending yourself! [It is the only satire story in my bucket list.] +However, I will use another story for an ending illustration on leaving the readers pleased at the resolution as well as the two characters involved. The storyline from 'Tutoring Miss Picket' began as an infatuated 9th grade girl expresses her platonic love for her algebra teacher and years later, when as an eighteen-year-old, after graduation, chances upon him at his mailbox. This ending ties all those elements together, summarizes the events, and brings closure to the readers and the characters. The story was submitted on May 28th 2021, has at this point 17.6K views, rated at 4.62 by 261 votes; and is another red Hot stamped story. The closing occurs after a long afternoon of sensual tutoring and examination by the teacher of Miss Picket's deficiencies in sex education. ++++++ + _Fresh out of the shower, she stood before me at the foot of the bed, naked, while I kissed each nipple, each cheek, tops, and bottoms, and gave her peach a gentle, respectful thank-you kiss. Then regretfully, I helped her spoon herself into the Daisy Duke getup that she wore and tied the halter behind her back again. Miss Holley Picket, displayed as she was, was at least street legal to return home once more._ + _As we faced one another, I felt twenty years younger, my grin must have telegraphed how I felt to her. Because her well-tanned face beamed a broad smile back at me in return. Rising on tiptoe, she kissed me -- on the lips!_ + _As I walked her to the front door, she asked, ""So, Doctor Johann Wolfgang von Goethe how do you think my oral exam went, today?"" the melodious words cooed from her lips._ + _""Miss Holley Picket,"" I mused, giving the question some due thought, ""I think I have enough exam data to figure out a tutoring program for you. So, I'll expect to see you here promptly after your studies on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. How does that sound to you?""_ + _""Count on it, Johann. I knew you would be an excellent tutor!"" she giggled as she slipped past me while I held the screen door open for her. Again, her breasts, just grazed my chest, the same as they did when she entered._ + _It had been right at noon when I spotted her at the mailbox and it was after four o'clock now as she strolled out my door. I headed to the kitchen looking for something to restore my strength. 'God, she nearly killed me,' I thought as I creaked and gingerly limped across the living room. It had been years since Emma and I had done anything like that together. Looking up at the mantle, I thought I saw Emma's portrait wink an eye at me before returning to that wonderful smile she always had in our evening conversations._ + _""Sugar,"" I sighed, ""if I did wrong, then come for me tonight before I get too far into tutoring Miss Picket and can't stop.""_ ++++++ +From this excerpt, you can see Professor Von Goethe reflects on his former student's need for tutoring [not algebra this time], points to his earlier chance encounter at the mailbox, and the duration of the encounter. We detect his emotions as more jubilant, feeling twenty years younger. Even in the ending, we get to feel his love for his deceased wife still as he converses in the evenings with her portrait. +That latter point wraps back to the original setting that opens with his soliloquy on his wife's passing at the start of the story. It tied up all the loose ends and brought the story full circle. This comes from my series, ""Tutoring Miss Picket."" I wrote a follow on story, ""Tutoring Miss Picket -- Her POV' when readers commented they wanted more descriptive details. +That's a nice thing about Literotica, you can get some good feedback right away from readers and respond, if you do so choose. +Did this conclusion tug at the emotional heartstrings of readers? Judging from one reader, I believe the power of good internal dialogue and the right context indicates it does. Anonymous commented, **_""Loved the story between he and the sexy student, but there is just something in the last sentence that grabs this old 83 year old heart. I still have my sweet thing with me. Married now 60 years. I hugged her tighter last night after this story.""_** +Now, I don't know about you, — but that comment brought warmth and joy to my heart—I felt misty-eyed as I read his short praise. Isn't that worth taking the risk to publish? + **TIME FOR EDITING** +I've synthesized some cogent points from Emily Wilson's article posted on Scribendi's website about editing, hopefully without damaging the intent of her excellent article 'Writing Habits for Less Stress and Better Writing.' These quotes, I feel, are well in line with my own observations, but better said by an expert writer. +""Embrace the fact that first drafts are for mistakes. ... give yourself permission to write an imperfect first draft ... it is a multi-step process that requires lots and lots of revision."" +""Your first draft isn't the end. It's the beginning. It's where you'll be able to see what works, what doesn't, and what's clear or muddled within the context of your entire work. ..."" +""After spending so much time revising your writing, it can be very difficult to finally let go. ..."" +""Revision is a necessary part of the writing process ... Learn to trust that your work is enough. Editing is important, but don't use it as an excuse to never share your work."" +Her words neatly summarize the concept of writing as an iterative process ... stew over the ideas, write them, edit them, revise, and repeat until you feel you have achieved your personal best in the writing of the missive. Then publish it on Literotica.com. Let the world know your master work. ++++++ + **SOME PERSONSAL NOTES AND TIPS I HAVE LEARNED AS AN IMPERFECT WRITER** + **FIRST DRAFT STAGE** +Spend your time writing -- writing -- writing and writing — while your ideas are fresh and your creative juices are flowing -- don't worry about typos and grammar. The time wasted on that trivia, stunts your writing development. Deal with all the minutia, after you have written your conclusion! Never mind the red flags in your typing program! Never mind those homophones, homonyms, and mistyped its, it's, and all the other apostrophe placements. Put aside trying to correct and stopping to re-read what you just typed. That just halts the feeling of _'being in the zone'_ and keeps your characters sitting on the couch tapping their impatient toes — waiting for you to get back to making them interact with one another. +Just ~~wright~~ , ~~right~~ , write, damn it — and don't look backward until you are done! +Okay, so just keep focusing on where you want the story to go — there will be time to handle the minutia later. Keep thinking this is just a draft ... just a draft .... just a first draft until you reach the resolution of the FIRST draft. +At the end of the first draft, then, take a break and do some clean up: run a spelling checker and/or grammar if you absolutely are feeling OCD about it and let them work for you. + **SECOND DRAFT STAGE** +This requires your mental awareness to be sharp. You should have put your story away for a day and then return to read it anew. You are going to be looking for the flow of your story as you reread the storyline in its entirety. Here you are looking for things that jar you. Sentence constructs that cause you to stumble as you read the storyline ALOUD. Yes, that's right -- read it aloud as though you are reading the story for someone else to listen to -- story telling mode. [Not via subvocalization] You will be surprised at how many mistakes you find in the structural flow when read in this manner. It's going to be that way for your readers -- as most are verbalizing what they read even though they are reading it silently. Subvocalization is the linguistic term for hearing non-verbal speech as you read silently. Proofreading via subvocalization is not as effective as reading text orally aloud. [You still read too fast when using subvocalization.] I ask that you trust me on this one! +Note and change those as your progress through your story. Then repeat the spell checker and grammar tools again. + **THIRD DRAFT STAGE** +Search for those pesky apostrophes, the homophones, homographs, and subject verb agreements. Also review the use of quotation marks that you missed particularly in dialogue interactions among your characters. Check your paragraph structures for opening and closing sentence 'connections.' +Are your paragraphs in the correct order? +Should you move them to another part of your storyline? +Does it 'logically flow' from one paragraph to another? +This is also a good time to look at white spacing. That breaking down paragraphs into computer screen chunks that help ease the visual readability of a story. Large paragraphs are difficult to read on small screen devices. Help your readers' eyes by separating long ones for screen readability! +Review the dialogue scenes. Keeping in mind that dialog for each speaker is in a new paragraph. +This, sample dialogue below comes from Episode 5 of my 'Rescuing a Snow Angel' stories. Note how the dialogue of each speaker is in separate paragraphs and the descriptive, non-dialogue parts are also isolated from the spoken text quotes. Sometime, as in this case, an internal dialogue voice does better justice to the theme better than active dialogue lines could do alone. As mentioned earlier, the story incorporates known businesses and locations to add realism to the story's structure and continues to build upon bringing closure with references to earlier parts of the story. This is Jimmy speaking; a Vietnam POW hero's perspective: ++++++ + _The following day the mystery woman and stroller reappeared in the park. Today, her gaze seemed focused on the Worthington Building. It wasn't long before she stood up and pushed the stroller around the building and out of sight. Something didn't seem right about the way she kept surveilling the building, but I couldn't put a finger on it and went back to work. Pulling out of the parking lot after work, I drove around the block to the nearly finished restoration of the old Radisson Hotel into a modern condominium complex._ + _""Jimmy.""_ + _Came a soft voice from behind me. I knew the voice. A year ago, it spoke to me, filled with vile anger; wanting to know if I'd fucked her when she was asleep. I turned to see the vagrant that I had saved from freezing in the icy storm on Christmas eve; the same woman standing in the park with the stroller, was now standing three feet away._ + _""Hello, snow angel."" My reply came out a little like a frog caught up in my throat._ + _""I've been thinking about you, Rachel,"" I added._ + _""Are you mad at me?"" Her soft, hesitant words were spoken hardly above a whisper._ + _""Did you do something wrong to make me mad at you?"" I asked, brushing aside her question._ + _""Yes, I broke your trust in me. I'm sorry Jimmy.""_ + _Her eyes were brimming with tears; that broke my resolve. No one should be standing in an empty parking lot crying - that just isn't right._ + _""You have a child, now?""_ + _Sniffling, she replied, ""She's in the car - with my boyfriend, Eric. Her name is Kathrine Anne; named after my mom.""_ + _""Are you happy?""_ + _""I think so, Jimmy. That's the best answer I can give you now. I'm in the twelve-step process, Jimmy. You are on my list of people to make amends to. Jimmy, I'm really, really sorry that I took advantage of your kindness. I was an asshole for treating you the way I did after you saved my life. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me, please.""_ + _I'd lost so many comrades and that weight of lost lives hung around my neck like an albatross for so many years. Finally, I managed to rescue a snow angel, nearly frozen to death in the hotel's empty parking lot on Christmas Eve. I got one miracle right; I saved a life. And even that was stripped from me the following morning as she left without saying good-bye. It's no damned wonder I fight demons nearly every night._ + _I raised my arms and Rachel flowed into them. The sobs racked her body and she cried her heart out. It was a good thing I was a head taller than she, the tears that crested from my own eyes couldn't be seen as I clutched her to my heart. After what seemed like hours, her cry subsided and I released her from my grasp._ + _""Thank you, Jimmy, thank you,"" she whispered as she turned and started to walk away - then turned back one more time._ + _""Jimmy, Kathrine Anne is Eric's - just so you know, Eric's, understand?""_ +The emotional tones of this story certainly pulled at the heartstrings of a number of individuals who dealt with that war. One anonymous commenter left 800 words about those turbulent times. His comment could be a story in its own right. At one point he wrote, ""... It's nice that she cleans up purdy, that they made love, and that she followed his advice about returning home. It's not so nice that to get there she chose to rob the man who'd saved her life, [It would have been nice] asking for the money as a gift or loan. She is going to have to give up her street rat's virtue in exchange for the more mainstream ""don't rob the people who help you,"" or even the classic ""Thou shalt not steal,"" at least if she ever hopes to regain a normal life..."" +Now, readers, that story really invoked empathy with that commenter! He wrote as though the characters were sitting next to him as he read the story! ++++++ +[I have a reference note at the end of this missive about dialog writing from another Literotican's article. It does a good job of explaining why periods instead of commas come with the quotes as end punctuations.] + **THIRD DRAFT - Second Set of Eyes** +This is a coin toss item. By that I mean it would be a good time to have a second pair of eyes to review your story for continuity, and storyline flow. A second reader can also help spot grammar and spelling errors. Those eyes are new to the story and are somewhat disinterested in the content, if they have been given the chore of wading through grammar and spelling as their primary purpose for reading. +Even though you have read your work multiple times, you will find mistakes later. Your mind knows what you intended to write; it has worked the plot so many times that it is a memorized and replays the events as you _perceive_ them. The mind gets engrossed in what it knows should be there. However, it can skate over an error having already 'read ahead of that action section' because it knows what should be on the page — not what remains as an unspotted error on the page. +Another reviewer doesn't have that skating factor, she or he doesn't know your story fifty-ways-to-Sunday and every wart of every character you crafted. From that perspective a fresh set of eyes will catch those few remaining details for purging. +If another reviewer is not available or acceptable, then 'pass your eyes' over it for another vocalized reading, looking for those same jarring structures and to see if your perceptions of the actions are fluid. That the timelines are the way they should be according to your outline. +As Ms. Wilson remarked earlier in my citing, ""Editing is important, but don't use it as an excuse to never share your work."" You are posting on a free website that recognizes you and I are not professional writers. Thankfully, they allow us some leeway. Certainly, the readers, most of them, also appreciate that we did our best to entertain them and are not too 'groused' about a few hiccups in our missives. +Literotica has a list of perspective volunteer editors -- offering to read and advise you -- for free. Several guru level writers on Literotica have mentioned they use and encourage the use of such editors. I have a list at the end of this missive about editors and other site resources. +Kenjsato, a Literotica editor, graciously reviewed this post, acting as a 'second set of eyes' for me. He caught many mistakes — ones that I fell prey to as I had already proofed it to the point that I was 'skating over' those obvious ones. Others, he caught that appeared due to my colloquial writing terms as well as finer points of grammar. That 'at-an-arms distance editor' really helped! + **CODING FOR LITEROTICA PUBLISHING** +Whew! +Just when you thought you were through! Now you must make your story pretty! Attractive for your readers and easy on their eyes; especially for those small reader devices. +I knew nothing about formatting stories on Literotica's site when I submitted my first story. I uploaded it as a Microsoft Word document. It sure 'looked pretty on my computer!' The kind folks at the upload source reviewed the document and 'published it.' +It sure didn't look the way I wrote it! What happened to my centered text? My italic use for 'mental dialogue' to distinguish it from regular speech? My bold? My color? +Alas, I found that any formatting in MS Word does not transfer: e.g., italic, centering, bold, and many others. However, Literotica does use a coding that is mentioned in a couple of obscure locations. +Now, before I submit my new articles to be published, I format the story in MS Word as I normally would do. +When I want a title centered on Literotica I add these <> codes as additional typing steps in my MS Word story. Then copy the entire story, and paste it into the Literotica submission box. It appears in a draft view mode [While you are in draft mode -- it doesn't have any formatting applied!] Once you select preview and publish mode - you will see it the way it appears to your readers. Carefully -- read the entire thing again! Sometimes you miss enter a code and everything looks cockeyed! Just have your word processor document open and look at the same spot as in the Literotica window. Keep correct the missing ingredients in the word document. When you have spotted and corrected them, then copy/paste it again into the Lit window. -- Yes, one more editing thing! + **CODE EXAMPLE** +< center> ""How to Develop a Good Story"" < /center> +< center>< I> Donald Mallord < /I>< /center> +Note 1: the < > encloses the word 'center' and it must also have the closing 'slash' before the second captured 'center.' If not, all the following text to the end of your story will get centered as well! [DO NOT include the space before the commands as shown. I had to put in a space just after the < so that you could see it in the published window! Leave out the blank space!] +Note 2: The second line has my name centered AND italicizes the moniker as well. You must type out the full word 'center' but for others you can use shortcuts: +•< I> example < /I> produces italic formatting +•< b> example < /b> produces bold +There are other coding commands -- just a few here for you to see the process. In the reference section I have a resource article on this for your review. +[You might recall the first page of this document has the title centered and my name centered with italic script. There you do not see the < I> italic text. If you forgot, just take a moment to see the outcome of using those coding techniques on the first page.] + **STRUCTURED WRITING REVIEW** \- Recap +This missive has taken you through some rudimentary steps to frame your story in a manner that captivates your readers. It 'hooks' them if you use the framework and character development notes provided. If you follow this as a general guide your writings now have an introduction, a defined plot development section, and a defined resolution. You have a road map from the start of the story to the wrap-up. Following the road map will keep you from wandering all over the countryside and it will help reduce your editing time. +Remember the editor and published writers' points I cited regarding character development. Those are so important to creating a captivating story. Characters are what readers are interested in — if they truly are seeking a good storyline — not just ... sex for self-gratification while reading Literotica stories -- stream of conscious writing works there! +Make certain to create an intriguing opening for your story! Remember, many are prone to escape out of a story after a few paragraphs if they have not had 'the hook' set to keep them reading your missive. Make your 'stuff' stand out among the others publishing here! + **DO I FOLLOW MY OWN ADVICE?** +Now, ask me if I always follow the mapping strategy for my writings! I dare you! Okay, no, I do not always follow this scholarly advice. On occasion, I will spend a considerably long time stewing over a theme that involves something that I continually refine and mentally edit well before I sit down to script the story. [I'm certain I have way more time on my hands to ponder themes and plots than most Literoticans.] That works for me when the writing involves my own personal life events. My wounded warrior hero stories don't need any brainstorming on how the characters feel or respond under the storyline situations. I am very much aware—of how they actually happened! +Although, I do employ this mapping strategy for more than 90% of my work! It is a good model that has kept and continues to keep my thoughts focused on the storyline's progression in a more orderly manner. ++++++ + **STREAM OF CONSCIOUS WRITING APPROACH** \-- A non-structured writing method +There is another writing technique called stream of conscious writing. It is the antithesis of a structured approach. You sit, you think, and you start writing whatever comes into your mind. Amazingly, sometimes those writings provide you nuggets that can be flushed out in outline form and be productive writing. Yes, that requires a lot of restructuring to get it into shape, however, I only employ that method when my muse is as dry as the Sahara Desert. +In a communique with electricblue66, a Literotica Guru, I cited earlier regarding realism in using named locations, she says, ""...I have no structure at all with my writing. I don't plot, don't do outlines, don't do any of the ""traditional"" stuff. I start with some simple idea, characters can arrive in the length of a paragraph, and I write till it seems right to stop."" +Her approach is a perfect model of the stream of conscious writing technique or 'pantser' writing. Her works are here in Literotica, and published through other sources. So, accomplished authors do not necessarily have only a structured approach to writing in their bag of tricks; they have honed their writing skills to overcome things that would cause neophytes, beginners, to falter. +Once, I attended a writing workshop that used a five-minute stream of conscious approach given some specific topics. At the end of twenty minutes -- four sessions -- we were assigned to select one of those topics to flush out for a story. In those days, it was all pencil and paper -- long before computers, so not a lot of words or thoughts hit the pages. It was an interesting class and some attendees felt it was a beneficial way to find a storyline to expand as a new story. +Still, today, decades later, I use the old fashioned mapping exercise way of drawing circles and jotting notes inside them about: characters, locations, etc. I use an 11"" x 17"" blank sheet of paper to design my storyboards. It just seems better sized that an 8 ½"" x 11"" sheet. I link those circles to related events. It is easy to catch the hang of it after you have seen a few samples. Google 'free storyboarding templates' and you will see how they are created. Adapt the paper version to your own style of writing. Sometime its best to be away from the electronics for a bit just to have tactile sensory modes engaged with paper and pencil! +Today, there are software aids to writing stories. These programs allow you to automate the hand-managed process mentioned above and are available for PC and Macintosh. Google 'story writing software' and you will see those -- some are free, some are on-line, and of course there are those that come at a cost. ++++++ + **CONCLUSION TO DEVELOPING GOOD STORY WRITING** +This missive has discussed the basic storyline writing components that create a fundamentally sound story. It reviewed the three basic parts of a story: beginning, middle and conclusion. Within those steps, for good stories, are: creating an intriguing beginning, a purposefully planned hook to hold readers captive, well defined living and breathing characters, and a resolution that leaves readers feeling comfortable in knowing the story reached a logical outcome — either a 'feel good ending' or one that deserved a tragic outcome if that is the writer's intent. +To reach that writer's goal I proposed using a structured writing model and provided a brief overview of stream of consciousness 'free form' writing as an alternative; albeit a more cumbersome one requiring greater post editing for most writers. +I hope the stories I chose to illustrate this elements were sufficient and entertaining along the way.

No spelling mistakes or short-cuts to confuse the innocent reader? +All you need do is read it, right? +Too bad that the kids are creating, the TV is on full blast and 'er indoors has the Rolling Stones going good & loud, and someone's just flushed the loo. +And I've not mentioned the traffic noise from outside. +And you need to whisper sweet nothings into a microphone? +Have you ever seen the inside of a studio? No? Let me tell you a bit about it. +Generally speaking it has solid walls and a generally sound-absorbent (or deadening) lining. The table, upon which sits the microphone, is covered in soft material (usually over a sponge or similar). The microphone itself is mounted on some sort of anti-vibration or soft base. And squeaky chairs are not welcome. +I'll leave the technical recording stuff - for now. +So you need somewhere QUIET! +Now, one thing about sound is that it reflects off a hard surface. +Close the curtains in a room and you've just reduced the problem quite dramatically (for a given size or type of room). I'll assume that it's carpeted; a hard floor is going to do you no favours whatever, I'm sorry to say. It might look great in a catalogue but it's absolutely no benefit whatever is you're recording. If you have a floor like that, cover it with carpets, towels or anything soft. +Hang sheets or blankets over hard surfaces, such as a wall. +Got a curtain rail round the room? Hang some clothes or large towels (a 'Bath sheet') on it! +Or have you a large-ish wardrobe? Clear a bit of space and away you go! +Or a walk-in one? That may be ideal. +When reading your story, you need to be real comfortable; relaxed and switched on to what you are doing. And here we may present another problem: Clothes. Unless the sounds made by clothes are part of the general ambience (sound effects) of the work, the last thing you need is the sound of pieces of corduroy rubbing against each other; nor does the listener expect to hear the sound of the underwire in a bra or the slither of a blouse or shirt at an inconvenient moment (this might also include any jewellery; a clanking bracelet can be a very noisy thing indeed). Even quietly, these sounds can be remarkably distracting: Natural materials, worn slightly loose & discretely is more likely to be just the thing you need. +Your mouth needs to be a 'reasonable distance' from the microphone. +This may come as a surprise, but a microphone can usually hear you breathing, so you'd better practice! You don't want to be (with a simple microphone) too close that also gets all the explosive consonants (Ps & Bs, etc.), nor so far away that you need nearly flat-out recording gain complete with noise (hissing, etc.). A generous cladding of low-density sponge, can really help (sometimes available via E-Bay often called a 'Pop Filter'. +Here we have a bit of a problem that only you can solve. For a given type of microphone, there's generally an ""optimum"" distance, for a given type of voice. +At this point, I'll leave you to experiment and find your own best method. If you have a shrill, trebly, voice, use a big microphone which responds well to the Bass notes. +You need a fair bit of energy at the bottom end, usually (a lot depends upon the type of story). If you have a deep voice, you'll need something a little smaller, with good treble. The alternative is an 'equalising' mixer, but that's getting a trifle technical. +You might be tempted to think that one microphone is much like another: It ain't. +At the beginning end of microphone types, there are two to look for; ""Omni directional"" and ""Cardioid"". As it's name implies, the Omni literally picks anything up from round it, regardless of direction. This often includes next door's domestic row, vacuum cleaner or even the lawn mower; all of which may be reduced a little by the sound-deadening soft furnishings outlined above. +I do not recommend an ""omni-directional"" microphone as a general rule for an individual voice. An omni microphone, on the table may well pick up a group, so if you have a number of voices round the table, and Omni mic is the place to start (do not forget to insulate it from the table top). +The Cardioid has, as its name implies, has a roughly heart-shaped response, tending to reject (perhaps that should be 'suppress') sounds from the sides. You usually have to speak directly into this microphone, depending upon the reaction you want. +And upon what sort of machine are you going to record this masterpiece? +Let's start off with the easy end: you have a half-decent cassette recorder or even a decent Open Reel type. +Now, if you get the acoustics right, you could be on to a winner here; provided you have a decent microphone. +I suggest a moving coil (a.k.a. ""dynamic"") type for preference; an electret can be a bit tricky and, unless you have the knowledge, forget the true ""Condenser"" microphones; they usually require a power supply). E-Bay can help, but there's lot of serious advertising and the skill of the buyer is assumed in there; and very confusing it is, too. Price? Anything from 99 pence to 99 pounds, depending upon the make and type. +You'll notice I have not mentioned stereo. Two channels (Left & Right); thus two microphones, perhaps; it's not vital, but it/they do have advantages (you can shift the sound source from one side of the ""sound field"" to the other, think of a conversation). Naturally, if you have the supplied microphone, it might even record to both channels anyway. +One important thing: never 'blow' into a microphone. Scratch your fingernail across the grille, or gently tap it but NEVER, NEVER blow into it (even a cheap one can be easily damaged). +Of course, the modern 'gaming' headset, with a boom microphone could be just the job, provided you have a decent control of external sounds and acoustics. This brings me to the use of the Computer as a recording medium. As I have and use a PC, I'll stick to that. I assume Mac users can find some sort of equivalent (if Apple lets them). +There's a good, free, programme called ""Audacity."" You can make the sound 'jump through hoops' with the wiggle of your mouse. It also has the advantage of presenting you with a digital file. +Whatever machine you use, from a cassette recorder, via a big open-reel machine to your huge PC, control the level of your voice. If your character loves to shout (or if she's a screamer), just put the microphone further away from the mouth. This is something you'll have to practice with before you get it right. +Always leave a slight pause after operating a switch before you start to speak and another before you switch off the recorder. It makes editing a great deal easier. +In closing, let's consider the voice itself. +You'll need to practice speaking; and Yes, I am serious. God and your antecedents gave you the shape of your larynx, but gave no clues about how best to use it. You need to practice; just as an actor does. Voice exercises are a good idea, but don't overdo it. +While you bathe or shower is a good time; it's usually more private. +The things to remember are: +Rhythm +Speed, +Volume, +Pitch +Don't gabble, Keep the speed right for the text, don't whisper or shout, unless it's in the text, and keep a normal adult pitch (it's no good sounding like some whiney-arsed kid moaning about no sweeties; remember that, by & large, your characters are grown-ups and have a fairly-well developed larynx). Make sure you do not get interrupted. +Be Very Careful with the pages of the script. Type your screed in large type, double spaced in a good, clear font with a serif (ITC Bookman, Bookman Old style, Calisto MT, for example). Make sure that it is well-illuminated and loose-leaf. +And make sure that the page bottom does NOT feature half a sentence (it's collectively known as 'Widows & Orphans'). Turning the page takes time and half-way through some exciting action is not the time for a gap in the reading. Even splitting a paragraph is sometimes ill-considered. +Turn your pages with care! (and if you need a drink, do it with the tape OFF). +And do not forget that characters have their own voice. Your hero may sound like Walter Cronkite and your heroine like Lauren Bacall but this is not common.

So we organize it. Suits, jeans, shirts...lululemon stuff is a must, of course. But that's all outerwear. +How do you really want to dress your man? +Fortunately, mine lost his driving licence for too many tickets. That gave me the opportunity. Simply put, in order to ride with me, in my vehicle, and he had to ride with me whilst suspended, he had to dress as I said. +So we started out with the absolute basics. +I let him slip into the passenger seat, and pass me my coffee in the travelling cup. Then I told him he was going to remove everything from the waist down. Then I sipped my coffee, and waited. +It's not as though this was the first time he'd been naked in the vehicle. He had a knack for losing bets. Poker, both normal and strip. Football. Baseball. For a guy who knew sports as well as he did, he lost a lot of bets on games. And some of them involved riding naked, here and there, that sort of thing. And he knew to expect pretty rough treatment in that respect - since he'd written and posted that story, unbeknownst to me, about the sex in the shop. +Yes, I am the manager of a shop. Yes, I did have sex with him in the shop shortly after we met. But no, I did not think of him as a bastard - and he did not leave money and a business card stuck to my perspiring flesh - and most importantly he did not check with me before posting it! So when he lost he rode naked, and did whatever else seemed appropriate to me within the context of the bet. +He wrote stories, naked, under my direction. Quite often. Almost all of the stories posted here are because of lost bets - or fictionalized accounts based on actual lost bet payouts. And they are always always written naked. And to my satisfaction. +But in this instance, he had not yet been informed of the basics outlined above with respect to riding with me. Until now. +And he was dressed in a suit, for work. And it was Monday am. Not later in the evening. +So sipping my coffee, sitting in the driveway, I explained the basics as you know them to be. +Only when he was naked from the waist down, did I start the car and leave the drive for his work. It's a longish drive to his place of employment so he was naked for a long time, in considerable traffic. I took the time to explain all of the terms and conditions. +He was dependent on me for all drives. He was not to use any other source of transportation except me, without my express permission - and he could expect any such permission to involve him being dressed as he was on that morning, if not less even than on that morning. And to emphasize this message, while we were idling in traffic I insisted he remove his suit jacket - and in part because I was bored, and he had sports on the radio, and we were still sitting there, bla-bla-bla. So why should he not pay for the irritation to me? He had no answer to that. So I then insisted he remove his tie and unbutton his shirt. And part the shirt. +He dresses left. For whatever reason the human erection cannot stay straight up for any period of time. So it does this cute little leaning tower thing. I only tell him his erection is cute when I want to offend him. Seems 'cute' has size connotations. Fact is, his erection is gorgeous. Before we had got that far, in an email, because I had asked him, he had told me his fingers fully splayed from little finger tip to thumb tip was 9 inches - and that his erection was that size. Turned out to be true. I have pix to prove it. One from that morning when I drove him to work where I had him use the seamstress tape measure I keep in the glovebox whilst I snapped a few more pix on my phone. +I did not take him into the carpark of his employment of course. Instead I took him the automated carpark over the road. There were cameras dotted around the carpark and lots of traffic coming and going but he was grateful I had not dragged him virtually naked into the firm carpark. +So I exploited the situation. Passing off his gratitude with a smile, I insisted he remove the now sweat soaked shirt - and I gave him the summary chapter and verse then. Thou shalt not. Thou shalt not. Thou shalt not. Thou shalt...thou shalt...thou shalt. He sat there, poor dear, now stark naked, flinching at every echoing car door and foot step, listening - and nodding and agreeing. +I finished and I made him wait, until I was satisfied he grasped the message. +I then got out of the vehicle, rounded to the boot and came back with a lululemon dressy teeshirt to replace his white shirt and tie. At the very least that would mean he would spend the whole day drawing attention because it was such a shift in dress, for him. I also insisted it was a commando day. I then gave him only enough time to slip on the new shirt, the jacket and the slacks before hustling him out onto the cold concrete to fend for himself and peel on his shoes and socks. +That evening, responding to my text instructions, he came to the shop a changed man. +Only you girls know that is not true. So did I. I closed the shop and took him down the road to Le Vie En Rose, where I installed him in one of the changing rooms - and, using sign language, whilst resisting the urge to chuckle or in some other way spoil the 'ambience', I tucked every stitch of his clothes into the shop bag from a much earlier visit. Then I left him stranded. And browsed the shop again. +I bought him a thong. Black. Lace. Perfect. Not only did it show the globes of his tight tush, it also covered nothing out front except his cute testicles. Pardon me, his gorgeous testicles. They are not that small either! It did however, prevent his dress left tendency - once I had communicated what I wanted by sign language. +Not that I minded his dressing left. I thought it cute...and sexy. But if he is a reno - tear down to the bare timbers and do the job right. At least that is what I was thinking, letting my fingertips trace every visible bit of erection...right up to the lovely circumcised head, which was hovering an inch or so up his taut abs from his navel and far enough from his actual flesh that I could slip my fingers into his thick perspiration soaked pubes. And give him a quick tweak. +While he pleaded, mutely, desperately, and on both sides of us women compared notes about this outfit and that item. +And I plucked away for a time, making him dance from one foot to the other, and sweat some more, and savouring the vision as the white glistening pre-cum oozed into view... and I decided to make him shave his pubes. For my amusement - details to be determined later. +Which is also when I came up with the next phase of the process. One piece, all laid out, so to speak. Clear as a bell in my mind. +But no rush. The suspension had weeks to run... +***** + _Comments welcome.

Get out of my way, Grandpa."" +No doubt, you even think you are a superior driver, better than most, except for those professional racecar drivers that you see on television, Formula One, Nascar, and Indy. If only you had the chance, you'd even show them what you can do. +Well, I'm here to give you a few pointers to not only help you drive your car faster but also to drive your car safer. First of all, to all those who are driving pickup trucks, mini-vans, full sized vans, and SUV's, allow me to give you the best advice that I can. Slow down. Yeah, I know you have big V8 engines that have mega horsepower, but your vehicles aren't meant to go fast. They are more meant to carry heavier loads and to pull a trailer. Sorry. Also, this how to story is not all the information that you'll need to know to drive faster safer. It's just a brief introduction, the rest is up to you. +For the rest of you cowboys and cowgirls who love speed and have a lead foot, this how to drive faster safer story is for you. If you haven't already, the first thing you should do, before you buy those big, useless 20"" wheels, is take a professional driving class with a professional driving instructor. Yeah, they are expensive, but worth every penny, especially if it ends up saving your life and the life of someone else, not to mention the bodywork of your car. It's a worthy investment. +By the way, just as an aside, if a crash is inevitable and you have a choice where to crash your car, a tree, a pole, another vehicle head on, or a wall. Pick the wall. Usually hitting trees, poles, and other cars head on are, more than likely, fatal accidents. Chances are, you'll have a better survival rate and of walking away from the crash without a scratch, when hitting a wall. +Why? The force of the crash is spread out and dispersed over a wider area. Trust me, I know. I've hit two walls and demolished two cars testing the airbags and walked away with nothing more than soreness, stiffness, shock, and bruises. +Yeah, both accidents happened before learning how to drive faster safer and, in both instances, I was driving too fast for the road conditions. Nonetheless, even though both accidents were more the fault of the other driver, I still accept responsibility for thinking that I was a better driver than I was. I was lucky I hit a wall in both accidents. Better that I totaled my cars than killed myself or someone else. +Back to the story. Why should you waste your time and money to take lessons from a professional driver? You already know how to drive. Yeah, but you don't know how to drive faster safer and that hasn't stopped you from driving fast unsafely, now, has it? The first thing that a professional driving class will teach you is how much you don't know. Driving faster is more than hitting the apex on a curve. +Let me give you an example. Do you remember seeing all those high speed chases on television, most of which were in LA, the car capital of the world? Why do you think 99% of the speeders were unable to get away from the police. Yeah, they use helicopters to track them, but police officers are required to take professional high speed driving classes. They not only know how to drive, they know how to drive faster safer. Unless that police car chasing you is in disrepair or has a blowout, you aren't going to get away from him or her. +I took a Grand Prix course nearly 25 years ago and it opened my eyes. It was a weekend course with the famous Bob Bondurant. Young, dumb, and full of testosterone, I thought I was a hotshot with my '85 Mustang GT. Back then, there weren't many cars that could beat it, especially for the price that I paid for the car new, $12,000. Twenty-five years later, at $35,000 a Mustang GT is still one of the top dogs in that price range, a fun car to drive fast, and, to my biased ears, it sounds better than anything on the road, except for a Ferrari. +Mr. Bondurant taught me how to balance and brake a car without flipping it or skidding it sideways. The key to driving faster is to drive smoother and the way to drive smoother is to always drive your car neutrally balanced. When you brake, the weight of your car transfers to the front wheels. When you accelerate, the weight of your car transfers to the rear wheels. When you take a hard right, because of centrifugal force, the weight goes to the left side of the car and the opposite when you take a hard left, with your weight going on the right side. The art of driving faster safer is to maintain the weight in the middle, neutrally balanced, and the way to do that is to feel what your car is doing, when it is doing it, and before it's too late. +Even after you finish taking your driving class, you aren't going to drive like the professional drivers. To get the crazy speed they need to win, professional drivers drive on the edge of disaster, constantly but momentarily driving their cars in an unbalanced condition to pass or to make their move before resuming their smooth driving techniques. That's the difference between racecar drivers and us, they not only are professional drivers but also they are extraordinarily talented. +Bob Bondurant taught me how to drive smoother, the key formula in how to drive faster. At a time before computerized anti-lock brakes, traction control, and anti-skid control, to drive fast we had to depend on the seat of our pants and not computers, which brings me to tires and seats. You can't drive fast with all season tires or, God forbid, snow or mud tires, just as you can't drive fast in an unsafe vehicle, one that has bald tires, shot brakes, springs, and shocks. +You can't drive fast safely with underinflated or over inflated tires. It's imperative that you buy a good tire gauge and check the air in your tires regularly. Just like it says in the Michelin tire commercials, your tires are the only things holding you on the road. You dig? If you plan on driving fast, you need performance summer tires for better traction and braking. Without top tires, you're a passenger and not a driver. +Another aside, raise your hands. How many of you, who live in the snow belt, put snow tires on your car? Very few. I figured as much. +All season tires are a compromise. They aren't as good as high performance tires in the summer and not nearly as good as snow tires in the winter. I don't care if your car has front wheel, all wheel, or four wheel drive, I'll drive circles around you in my 4 snow tired shod rear wheel drive car. Do us all a favor, if your car is shod with all season tires, slow down and move from the high speed lane, so that I can get by you Thank you in advance. +You can't drive fast without a good seat. The first thing that I did when I bought my car was to remove the driver's seat and install a Recaro seat. Yeah, they're expensive, about $1,200, but they are worth as much as having a Herman Miller Aeron chair for your office, which I do, too. Not to mention I also have a Tempurpedic mattress, a necessity and one that I highly recommend, but that's a topic for another story. +I know I'll catch a lot of flack with this statement, but you can't drive fast in a front wheel drive car. Yeah, I know there are plenty rice rockets that will blow my doors off, no doubt. Yet, I prefer my rear wheel drive car and have blown the doors off of plenty of Subaru WRX's, Mitsubishi's Evo's, and Mazda Speed 3's with it. +When my car speaks to me, I've learn to listen to what the car has to say. Besides, when all things are equal, driving fast is more the driver than it is the car. You can put a professional driver in a underpowered car and what he'll lose on the straightaway, he'll make up for in the curves and in the twisties. The average, non-professional driver, a driver who had never taken a high speed class, will have a difficult time keeping up with someone who knows how to drive faster safer. +Do you know what happens after you complete a professional driving course? Instead of driving faster, you drive slower. It's true. It happens to everyone. Why? Because with more to think about, you now have more of an appreciation of what it takes to drive faster safer, namely balance and smoothness. Moreover, now that you know all the things that can go terribly wrong in the blink of an eye, not only are you a more knowledgeable driver but also a more careful one. +Trying to always maintain the balance of the car, while driving smoothly, is why you suddenly drive slower. You are driving, as if you're a new driver, while trying to implement all that you have learned in your professional driving class. In time, you'll not only drive smoother but also you'll driver faster safer. +I know enough to know how much I still don't know. What I do have is an appreciation for a professional driver, such as Bob Bondurant and his ilk. After all of us hotshots drove around the Grand Prix course his instructors worked so hard to lay out, after we demolished most of the orange cones, Mr. Bondurant piled all twelve of us in a 15 passenger, full sized van, a big mother of a top heavy van. Then, he proceeded to drive that course with all that extra weight that none of us had in our Mustang GT's. Without so much as squealing and lifting a tire, by keeping that van balanced and driving smoothly, he beat the best time. Wow. I don't know about you, but I was impressed. +There are some basic things that we all can do to drive faster safer. Follow the speed limit when in traffic. Driving in traffic is not the time to go fast. Too many things can go wrong too quickly. +Don't drive in the pack. Either drive ahead of the pack or allow the pack to pass you. Most accidents happen while you're stuck in a pack of cars and have nowhere to go but to crash into the car in front or beside you. +Don't tailgate. Keep a safe distance, at least a car length for each ten miles you are traveling and even more, for the reaction time you need to brake, the faster you are going. Believe it or not, but there are some people out there looking to get hit for the insurance. +Always give yourself an option. I prefer driving in the far right lane when I'm not driving in the high speed lane because I have that extra lane to maneuver should someone in front of me lose control of their car suddenly. +Never ever drive when you've been drinking. Even the best driver will think that he or she is a better driver and will take risks that they wouldn't ordinarily take, after only two drinks. If you're out drinking, give your keys to someone who isn't drinking or better, leave your car home and take public transportation or a cab. +Before you even start the engine, check your tires and check your mirrors. Now, that you're in the car, get comfortable. You don't want to be sitting on top of the steering wheel or too far away from the steering wheel. If you're a little person, a small woman, when that airbag pops out at your face, you're going to get hurt. You want to be at a distance where your arms are bent just a little, enough to be comfortable. If you can't reach the peddles, get peddle extensions. They have them. Lastly buckle up and lock your doors. +Did you know that in an accident, if your doors are unlocked they will more than likely fly open and throw you from your car? A locked door will not open. If it does, your relatives can sue the manufacturer on your behave, after you're dead and buried. +I used to box as a kid and my boxing instructor taught me to look my opponent straight in the eyes. Let me tell you, it's difficult not to blink when there's a jab coming at your face but, after a while, you learn not to blink. My boxing coach said that if you keep your eyes focused on his eyes, you can see all you need to see with your peripheral vision. The same principal applies to driving, especially on the highway, the safest place to drive fast, by the way. The fastest you travel the more tunnel vision you have, which is why you need to look so far ahead because by the time you look there, you are there. +Look far ahead. Trust your peripheral vision to see the rest of what you need to see. I know some of you drive while talking and, God forbid, texting. I don't talk on my cell phone when driving, especially not when driving fast. Instead, I prefer holding my steering wheel with two hands, at the 3 and 9 o'clock position. +Matter of fact, most times, I don't even listen to the radio. Yeah, I know, shocking for those of you who really aren't drivers. Yet, for those of us who are drivers, we'd rather listen to our exhaust and listen to hear what the tires are doing on the road than listening to Sports Talk Radio or Bon Jovi. +Another thing, I never drive without eyes and ears. My eyes are a good radar detector. I have a Valentine One and my ears are a CB radio. As long as you return the courtesy to truckers and tell them how the road looked over your shoulder, the truckers will always let you know if there's a bear parked along the side of the road. +Yeah, sure, radar will pick up 95% of the speed traps, but too many cops now beat those who drive with radar by using instant on radar, radar that is only on for a second, enough to bag you and too late for your radar detector to signal you a warning. Then, there's those low flying planes that call ahead to an unmarked car parked on the side of the road. +I hope this little how to story has given you enough information to want more. For those of you who can't afford the three to six thousand dollars to take a professional driving class, there are cheaper one day classes that will give you the basics. Also, there are plenty of books and DVD's on the subject. +In the meantime, slow down, stay to the right, and just let me pass you. I'm a professional. I know what I'm doing. Do not try this at home." +334,How To Drive Wicked Fast,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-12,2008-05-12,2022-01-04 08:30:51,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-drive-wicked-fast,This How To story is dedicated to the 2008 Indy 500.,"['Automatic Transmission', 'Cb Radio', 'Driving Fast', 'High Speed Driving', 'Seat Belt', 'Speeding Ticket', 'Sports Car', 'Suv']",4.08,"This story is about how to drive wicked fast as opposed to how to drive stupid fast. Driving stupid fast is when you are driving 20 mph over the speed limit in your mini-van or SUV while talking on the cell phone. Then, there is driving scary fast. Driving scary fast is when you are driving so fast that you scare even yourself. If you are scaring yourself by driving beyond your abilities to drive fast, then you are not in control of the car and need to slow down. +First things first, to drive wicked fast, you must learn how to drive slowly. Slow? Why slow? Because driving slowly will teach you how to drive smooth. Driving smooth is the key to driving fast and the smoother you drive the faster you will go. Driving smooth is driving without making mistakes while always maintaining complete control the car while keeping it in neutral balance. +Did you ever wonder why it is so much easier to catch up to someone who is driving fast than it is to stay ahead of someone who is intent on catching you? Well, here's the answer. The guy following you is watching and learning from all the mistakes that you make trying to get away from him. You are driving stupid and/or scary fast and he is driving not only much smoother than you but also faster than you. He is driving wicked fast. Now, if you, as an average driver tried to follow a professional driver, you couldn't come close to catching up to him because he wouldn't make the common mistakes that scrubs off speed and prolongs lap times. +There are those who believe it is the car that makes the driver and not the driver that drives the car. Well, if you ever went for a ride with a professional driver, you'd not only change your mind but also may have to change you underwear, too. A good driver driving a bad car will always win against a bad driver driving a good car. +In a previous paragraph I referred to two key words, balance and neutral, which are important elements in driving wicked fast. The good sports cars have a weight distribution of 50/50 or as close to 50/50 as they can, which means fifty percent of the weight is from the middle to front of the car and fifty percent of the weight is from the middle to the rear of the car. Most of your high end sports are 50/50, Porsche, Ferrari, and Lamborghini come to mind, and even the Corvette is 50/50. +Manufacturers go to great lengths to maintain a 50/50 weight distribution with some installing the engine in the middle of the car, behind the driver, with one, McLaren, putting the driver's seat in the middle of the car with a passenger seat on either side of him, and others reducing weight by using more composite and carbon fiber materials instead of steel and/or aluminum. +For that matter and for the purpose of driving wicked fast, most great sports cars are rear wheel drive. Maybe because I never owned a front wheel drive car, but have driven several front wheel drive cars including my girlfriend's Mini Cooper S, I can never imagine driving any front wheel drive car wicked fast. First of all, I hate the torque steer that happens when launching the car off the line. My girlfriend's turbo charged Mini Cooper S has so much torque steer that if you are not hanging on to the steer wheel with both hands, the car will veer away from you, crash, explode, and you will die in a fiery crash. Sorry, as a writer of fiction, I sometimes exaggerate. Suffice to say that her car has lots of torque steer. +Balancing the car neutrally can make you not only a safer driver but also a better and faster driver. Mistakes are what slow you down. Missing a shift, missing an apex, and braking too soon or too late or not getting back on the accelerator quick enough are all mistakes that scrubs off speed and you must change with the car's dynamics to balance it. +What do I mean about balancing the car and keeping it neutral? This is something that you can practice at home with your car. When you stomp on the gas, you can feel the weight of the car transferring to the rear and making the front not only lighter but reducing the traction and contact patch on your front tires. If you let up off the gas, you can feel the weight of the car shift its weight to neutral. Conversely, when you stomp on the brakes, you can feel the weight of the car transferring to the front making the rear not only lighter but also reducing the traction and contact patch on your rear tires. Again, if you let up off the brake, you can feel the weight of the car shift its weight to neutral. +In both instances, whether you step too hard on the gas or on the brake, you have upset the balance of the car and no longer are you driving a neutral car. Moreover, no longer are you going as fast as you could be going when driving a balanced car. Neutral is when the car is balanced and the weight is in the middle. Driving a car in the neutral zone is how you drive wicked fast. Maintaining a neutral balance with smooth transitions from gas to brake to shift will make you drive faster, much faster than you ever thought you could but it takes practice. +Now, when you take a hard right turn, the weight transfers or loads up the left rear and conversely when you take a hard left turn the weight transfers of loads up the right rear. In both instances turning in too fast will upset the car with the centrifugal G forces working against you to spin the car out of control. There are many ways to correct the situation, take your foot off the gas, give it some brake, or downshift before exiting out of the curve and rebalancing the car by giving it some gas. +By the way, and I'm sure that I'll catch lots of flack for this, especially from those driving those Subaru WRX's or a Mitsubishi Evo's but if you are driving a car with an automatic, there is no way you can drive that car wicked fast, that is unless you are wicked stupid. +Yeah, sure, you can plant your foot on the accelerator and go, but you have so much more control of your car when driving one that has a standard transmission. It is only with a standard transmission that you can explore what your car can really do. Sometimes, especially if you are running your car on a track, your automatic transmission just can't keep up with the starts, stops, and turns as will a standard transmission does. An automatic transmission will actually lower your lap times. +Most times, I never brake with my standard transmission car. Sometimes, I need only take my foot off the gas. Now, a car with an automatic will continue to travel at speed for a bit even with your foot off the gas, whereas my standard transmission car will slow immediately, giving me enough time to do some fancy heel and toe footwork to reduce my revs and downshift or hit the gas and shift upward. +I can downshift, double clutch, accelerate, trail brake, and steer out of situations that a car with an automatic just doesn't give a driver those capabilities. Moreover, anyone who drives an automatic is on the brakes more than they are on the gas, definitely more than someone who drives a car with a standard transmission. Automatics are for mini-vans and pick-up trucks and certainly not for sports cars. +My girlfriend has an automatic in her Mini Cooper because she injured her back horse riding competitively. She has those column mounted shifters that the Formula 1 cars have and they aren't bad. Certainly, it gives her more control over the transmission than a typical car with an automatic and it's fun to drive with the paddles. She even has a sport mode button that will change her shock settings mechanically. Still, it's not as much fun as it is driving a car with a standard and manually shifting just while revving to and bumping redline. +Yet, before we talk about driving, there are things we must do before even getting in the car. Do a visual inspection of your car. Does everything work? You must check your brake lights, directional lights, headlights, fog lights, and windshield wipers. Now check the tires. +First of all, if you have the original tires that came with the car, unless you opted for the high performance rubber donuts, then you need to buy a better set of tires before even thinking about driving wicked fast. If you want to drive wicked fast then you must have high performance tires on your car, tires that have a sidewall reading of AA, AA and V, W or Y. +The first double A reading is for temperature and the second double A reading is the traction and tread wear rating. V rating states that their tires can travel up to a speed of 149mph for one hour, W up to 168mph, and Y up to 186mph. There are other codes on the tires, but to drive wicked fast we are mainly concerned with the temperature, traction, and speed ratings. Okay, now that you have checked that you have good rubber on the car, check your tread to make sure your tires have plenty of it. Did you check the air in the tires? Duh! +What about your wheels? I assume you have aluminum wheels. Steel wheels add additional unsprung weight to your car, not a good thing to have. Aluminum wheels are usually, at least, half the weight and dissipate more heat than do steel. Did you check your brakes? We could mention installing a roll bar, but there are some things that spouses just wouldn't understand why there is a roll bar in your car. Your tight back seat is now even tighter, too tight for the babies' car seat. +Do you know what a Bugatti Veyron is? Well, it's a million seven hundred thousand dollar sports car. Simon Cowell of American Idol fame owns one. It is a 16 cylinder, 1001 horsepower wonder car that will go 253 miles be hour, which is significantly faster than a Ferrari Forumla 1 car. Yeah, so, what's my point? Well, going wicked fast in that car is going, well, 253 miles an hour. At that speed, a set of Michelin tires that cost $17,000 will only last 45 minutes. The custom wheels on this car cost what a new BMW 3 series cost, $43,000. The car has 10 radiators! +Next open your hood. Check your oil, battery, water level, hoses, belts, and wires. If everything looks good, then you are ready to get started...almost. Now, open your trunk. What is all this shit? +Get rid of the steel wheeled snow tire. We won't have snow again until December. Unless you're planning on driving to the golf course wicked fast, leave the clubs at home along with all this other heavy stuff in your trunk that you have adding weight to your rear and disturbing your car's weight distribution. It is so much more difficult to balance a car to neutral that has a poor weight distribution to begin with, such as does your car with all this unnecessary dead weight. +Speaking of weight, you could stand to lose a few pounds yourself. Hey, I'm just saying, the lighter the load the faster the car will go. +Next, open the driver's side door and remove your driver's seat. Yeah, you heard me right. Get rid of that piece of crap that came with the car. Yep, if you're a serious speed freak, the seat that comes with the car, unless the car is a Porsche, Ferrari, BMW (with the sports package), Corvette, and a few others, the driver's seat that comes from the manufacturer sucks. +I recommend you buy a Recaro seat. They are a bit pricy at $1,200, but they are well worth the money. I've had one in my cars for the past 20 years and I've never had a backache and the seat firmly holds me in place. Yet, that is not the important part, not having a backache and being firmly held in place. The important part is the Recaro seat allows you to feel what is happening on the road by transmitting it to your body through the seat. Moreover, in my youth of stupid, scary speed, I've crash tested a couple cars with Recaro seats and the seats hold up much better than any standard passenger seat. +Next remove your rear view mirror and replace it with a 4 or 5 panel Wink mirror. This is the mirror that NASCAR drivers use and they use it because there are no blind spots. It takes a couple weeks to get use to seeing every car come flying up behind you, but once you are used to driving with this mirror, you will never drive without one. +Wait; don't get behind the wheel just yet. There are a couple more things we need to drive wicked fast. The first is another set of eyes, a Radar detector. Forget the rest and buy either an Escort or a Valentine. I've had both and presently have a Valentine One. What I love about the Valentine is that it not only tells you how many radar signals there are but how strong or close they are. +Instead of beeping its head off as soon as it detects radar, it tells you the number of them from 1 to 9. Trust me; it's not unusual for police to piggyback their speed trap spots within a quarter mile of one another. Just as soon as you think you made it through harm's way, there is a second trap looming on the horizon. +Also, the Valentine actually tells you with arrows pointing up and down and side to side, where the radar is coming from. If the up arrow is illuminated than the speed trap is in front of you. If the down arrow is illuminated then the speed trap is behind you. Then, there are self-explanatory the left and right arrows. +Further, all radar detectors make different beeps for different radar. You want to learn all the different sounds. You'll know the real radar trap by the annoying sound that it makes, a kind of brapping sound instead of a beeping sound. Then, there is the instant on radar. There is no defense against instant on radar, even when using a radar detector because there is no early warning detection. Instant on radar comes on well...instantly. Some police departments have guns that go on only for an instant enough time to record your speed. If your radar lights up like a jukebox, you've been zapped. +The only defense to instant on radar is a CB radio. I never drive without wearing my ears. All I have to do is to call to the truckers ahead of me and they will tell me if there are any bears (cops). +Okay, now that you did a safety check on your car, replaced the tires with high performance tires, replaced your driver's seat and rear view mirror, installed a quality radar detector and CB radio, and removed the junk from the trunk, you are ready to get in and sit in the driver's seat. +Hold on, where's the fire? Before you insert the key and start up the car, adjust your seat. Get comfortable. You want the steering wheel as far but as close away so that your arms are comfortably bent, not straight out, and not bent too much either. +Now hold the steering wheel with two hands at the 3 and 9 positions or the 10 and 2 positions. How does that feel? You forgot one very important thing. Buckle your seatbelt and lock your doors. +Okay, start up the car and take it slow out of the driveway and down the street, all the while holding the steering wheel with two hands unless you are using your right hand to shift. +Many years ago, I took a high speed driving course from the famous racecar driver for Ferrari and Carroll Shelby, Bob Bondurant. After his personal instruction of how to attack the Grand Prix style race course that he had arranged with orange cones, he allowed all the students to drive Ford Mustangs around the course while sitting next to a driving instructor helping us with braking, steering, and shifting. Definitely, this was the best time I had while wearing my clothes. +At the end of the session, Mr. Bondurant took 14 students in a 15 passenger 1 ton capacity van and blew away everyone's times. He did it by driving the vehicle smooth and always maintaining balance. Even with that load of people, more than 2,000 pounds, he was able to maintain the balance and neutral feel of that giant van. It was the greatest display of wicked fast driving that I've seen short of Danny Sullivan spinning and winning the Indy 500 in 1985. +I've driven wicked fast a few times, but less since I took the high speed performance driving instruction. Now, that I know how to drive a car wicked fast, I don't. It's the same principle when you go to college and earn your bachelor's degree. Instead of feeling smarter, you discover how much knowledge that you don't know and need to learn. There are too many things that can happen and go disastrously wrong when driving an ordinary automobile wicked fast on ordinary roads that are crowded with other ordinary people driving ordinary cars. +I recommend that everyone take high performance driving instruction, especially those of you how have teenage children just learning to drive. I recommend that if you have the need for speed and want to drive wicked fast that you drive on a closed race course. This subject is too vast to explore in this story and I suggest those who want to learn more but can't afford the cost of high performance driving instruction to at least read a book on the subject. +The high speed driving instruction has made me a safer, more knowledgeable, and a better driver. Yet, once in a while, early on a Sunday morning, I'll take a run down a deserted highway and exit the ramp at double the recommended speed knowing that I'm a safer driver than the person speeding up behind me while talking on his cell phone." +335,How To Drive Your Man Wild,Pussymad,How To,2004-08-10,2004-08-10,2022-01-04 08:30:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-drive-your-man-wild,How to be his dream woman.,"['Breasts Make', 'Cock Woman', 'Dirty Sex', 'Make Sex', 'Porn Films', 'Push Forward', 'Recovery Time', 'Redouble Efforts', 'Remember Men', 'Sex Woman']",4.41,"There are a lot of articles on this site and elsewhere offering advice on either how to become a sensational lover yourself, or turn your partner into either a stud or a raving nymphomaniac. This is not one of those articles. For many, some of the ideas put forward are simply too much for either themselves and/or their partners so what I propose is a far simpler solution. +This article is written from a man’s perspective but for a woman to read, about all of the little things that she can do to make sex a really special experience for her partner. I do not profess to know what women want so I will leave it to a woman to write the other side of this and I would be more than happy to hear from you if you want to take the trouble of contacting me. +None of what I am about to say requires having to become a contortionist, be a raving nymphomaniac, have a 12 inch cock or be able to get it up ten times a night. What you have to remember is that sex is as much psychological as it is physical. After all, if a guy has his cock in a woman’s pussy, he’s going to enjoy it to a degree even if she acts like a plank of wood, so what makes the experience special is the subtle things she can do to really excite his mind, stimulate his imagination and most of all, flatter his ego. +The first thing to remember is that men put themselves under tremendous pressure to ‘perform’ and be a really talented lover. While I accept that there are men out there that care only for their own pleasure, I believe that most men would really like to know that what they are doing is being appreciated. Most women I know say that they are very satisfied with their husbands/boyfriends performance in bed but do you always make it clear to him that you do while actually having sex? +Let’s start with basics. Don’t just lie on your back and make him do all the work because then he will get the impression that you are only doing this because you feel obliged to in some way. It is only very recently that society has begun to accept that women can enjoy sex as much as men and old attitudes are hard to dispel so you have to make sure that he knows you want to be having sex with him. These historical beliefs tend to mean that men generally assume that they are a lot keener on sex than the woman and women tend to be inhibited about expressing what they actually want in bed in case they come across as a ‘slut’. Don’t worry, men may like ‘ladies’, but in the bedroom they want a slut. +Men tend to naturally adopt a more dominant role in bed and I’m not suggesting that this should change but women do need to be a little proactive in the relationship. This will make the guy feel like a stud and I guarantee that you will appreciate the results because the more of a stud he feels the more he will be prepared to do whatever you want in return. I am not suggesting that women everywhere should just jump on their man’s bones and ride him senseless. No doubt he would enjoy it but this article is about more subtle techniques that can be used. So, how do we achieve this in less demanding ways? +Most women have reasonably sensitive breasts and nipples and enjoy a man fondling, kissing, caressing or sucking them. This is an ideal place to start because most men are pretty keen on breasts too and it is often their first port of call. What’s the problem, you may ask? A problem arises when women just lie there and accept what his hands and mouth are doing. It isn’t enough to just allow him to suck and squeeze to his heart’s content. Remember the psychological side of sex. He desperately wants to know that you enjoy what he is doing and want him to do more. If he is sucking on your breasts, make sure that you put your hand on the back of his head and slightly pull him towards your chest. This will be enough to let him know that you like him being there. In his own mind he is already becoming something of a stud and will probably redouble his efforts for you even more, both parties win. Even better, use oral encouragement as well. It doesn’t have to be desperately articulate, a soft moan should suffice or maybe a “That’s nice”. Furthermore, if you want him to do something slightly different, don’t be afraid to tell him. He won’t mind and you will certainly enjoy it more. +Much the same sort of advice holds true when he is going down on you. I don’t know any women who don’t like a man eating their pussy and I even know a lot of women that prefer it to penetrative sex, being only able to achieve orgasm this way. If he starts eating your pussy without any prompting, great, but he will still be looking for encouragement. As with your breasts, make sure that you hold the back of his head and apply some pressure. To make sure he is doing the right things for you, increase the pressure on the back of his head in proportion to how much you are enjoying what he is doing. He will soon learn what you like and you will get a far more memorable experience. Better still, be even more proactive and push him down to your pussy first as this way he will be encouraged by your enthusiasm. Alternatively, just move yourself and sit on his face. Unless he has an irrational objection to eating pussy he certainly won’t object. Either of these techniques are good because in his mind he will once again see himself as something of a stud because he has got you so excited. Sex, for him, is suddenly out of this world and he will probably again redouble his efforts for you – a win/win situation. +You need to remember however that oral sex works both ways and getting a blowjob is something that every man loves. The physical reasons for this are fairly obvious and by now you are hopefully beginning to appreciate how his mind works as well. As the woman has to do a lot more in a blowjob than any other aspect of sex I’ve mentioned I will spend more time on this. +For a woman to take a man’s cock in her mouth is an extremely intimate act and, like vaginal sex, will probably be enjoyed by the man regardless of how well the woman performs this act. Nevertheless, there are a number of things the woman can do to make it extra special. +1\. Make sure you go down on him _before_ he tries to eat your pussy. I know it should be ladies first but there are a number of practical reasons for the man to be seen to first in oral sex. Obviously it helps to allow him recovery time so that he can calm down before engaging in full intercourse and he can do this while eating your pussy. If you have only excited him with oral sex he will probably eat your pussy for quite a while because he will be afraid of cumming too soon when he does enter you. No man wants this. If you have sucked him to completion he will obviously need recovery time and because he will be so grateful for what you have done, will probably do whatever you want during this period. +2\. If the woman starts to give her man head before he has eaten her pussy it is far less likely that he will see the blowjob as something she feels ‘obliged’ to do. Men like such enthusiasm in a woman. It flatters their ego because they will always believe that it is due to their prowess as a lover. Also, a woman should never be in a situation where her man has to ask her to suck his cock. While he may still be pleased that you have, it will nevertheless spoil the overall effect and thus dampen his enthusiasm – enthusiasm he can be using to your benefit. +3\. How to suck a cock. There is plenty of detailed advice about this elsewhere so I will try to keep it as brief as possible. Firstly, don’t rush to just shove it in your mouth and suck like a Dyson vacuum cleaner. No doubt he will enjoy it but the effect can be made more powerful by slowing down. As men enjoy all aspects of a blowjob so much it is one of the few times in sex when the woman doesn’t have to worry about slowing him down. All I will say is use kisses and your tongue all over his cock (including his balls), suck slowly at first and then gradually build from there. Lots of people talk about deep throat techniques but this just isn’t going to happen with most women so let’s concentrate on what can be achieved. Men like penetration deep, be it vaginal, oral or anal. He will always try to get his cock as far into a woman as possible. I think it must be an evolutionary thing so it increases the chance of his sperm fertilizing the woman’s egg but whatever the reason, it is always true. Lots of women do not take as much cock into their mouths as they can because they are afraid that the man will suddenly push forward and choke her. Do not fear. Take as much of him into your mouth as possible (he will love it) and then wedge your hands between your mouth and the base of his cock. If he does then push forward he will only push your head safely away but he will very much appreciate that you are trying to take as much of him in your mouth as possible. If he sees that you are trying to get as much of his cock in your mouth as possible it doesn’t matter if you get it all in or not because if you fail (as most women will) he will see it as being due to the immense size of his equipment. True or not, that is how he will rationalise it in his head. +4\. Moan a lot while sucking him. This is very effective because the vibrations in your mouth and throat will be transferred to his cock and increases his enjoyment. He will also feel like a real stud because you seem to be enjoying it so much and are clearly in awe of his impressive equipment. +5\. Spit or swallow. The eternal dilemma. Actually it is up to you and there are arguments on both sides. Contrary to what may be seen in porn films I can guarantee that he will want to cum in your mouth and not just on your face. All men prefer to cum inside a woman regardless of the hole being used. We simply find it far more satisfying, which is also probably an evolutionary thing. If you are to spit, make sure that you only have the tip of his cock in your mouth when he cums. You can then close your throat and hold it in your mouth until he has finished before spitting it out. You haven’t swallowed but as it is resting on your tongue you have tasted it a lot. If you are to swallow the opposite is true. Position his cock as far back in your throat as possible so that when he cums it will shoot straight down your throat. Start swallowing straight away and you won’t taste a thing. Does allowing a man to cum in your mouth make you a slut? Yes, and that’s exactly why he likes it so much. Men will always believe that their partner is a lady so he will tend to rationalise your slutty behaviour in the bedroom as being solely down to his skill as a lover. His ego is flattered and therefore he enjoys the sex a lot more. Not allowing him to cum in your mouth at all comes a very poor second but if this is the case, make sure he cums all over his favourite part of your body (usually tits). +Finally I would like to point out that all men like it when a woman talks dirty to him during sex so don’t be bashful. The bedroom is an unreal environment and sex is really a form of adult escapism so if you can’t act out of character there, with a person you love, when can you? Men can be quite contradictory creatures. They like a demure lady out of the bedroom but a wild slutty type in the bedroom. They don’t usually like their woman using too much inappropriate language in everyday situations but love it when they talk dirty during sex. +Why? +Once again it is simply because it flatters the very fragile male ego because he will always rationalise it that he has made you lose all control because he is the best lover you have, or ever will, encounter. If you want an idea of the kind of things he will appreciate you saying you can check out any good porn film. I’ve seen loads of porn films and the best scene I have ever watched involved a rather fat woman who was nothing special to look at. What she lacked in looks, she more than made up for by what she said. In the cold light of day phrases like “Ohhh, your cock’s so big and hard” or “My pussy’s so wet, it feels so good wrapped around your big dick” seem a bit ridiculous but don’t worry about that. Remember, a man will always rationalise such behaviour as being due to his own skill and will therefore love you all the more for it. Some experimentation and research will help but I would suggest that some things will always be true of most men. They will always want to know that you appreciate the great size of their cock; they will always like you commenting on how hard it feels; and they will always want you to beg/plead them to fuck you. The word ‘fuck’ is an important one for you to use precisely because it is so unladylike. +Most women would also do well to remember that men are not psychic. Every woman is different in their sexual preferences just as are men, yet many women have difficulty in expressing exactly what they want their lover to do. It makes life a lot simpler for everyone if you tell him in some way. Don’t just say that what he is doing is wrong, as his ego won’t be able to take it, but do suggest alternatives. Most men really do want to please you so he will appreciate the guidance and certainly won’t take it the wrong way if you are doing all of the things I have already mentioned. If you don’t feel comfortable just telling him, try to guide his actions with gentle pressure from the hands and a system of moans and groans when he does something right. I can’t emphasise too much how important it is to be vocal during sex. Like a clever sheepdog, you will find that he catches on quite quickly." +336,How to Eat Pussy (Instructional),AnonymousNin,How To,2021-09-01,2021-09-01,2022-01-04 08:30:53,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-eat-pussy-instructional,A very short guide on how to give a girl head.,"['Cunnilingus', 'For Men', 'For Women', 'Guide', 'How To', 'How To Get A Girl Off', 'How To Give Head', 'Informative', 'Instructional']",4.35,"_This is the best way to give a girl head.

I think not. +What is more the essence of sex than a woman’s vagina? The source of her pleasure, home of the clitoris, center of her sexual universe? Nothing, in my opinion. +All roads lead to the vagina, do they not? Look at a lovely woman. On the street, in the mall, at work – anywhere. Her abundant hair, alluring eyes, soft full lips. Follow down the curve of her neck, the swell of her breasts, the strength of her stomach. When you hit the center of her body, right between her beautiful legs, you’ve hit the center of her being. +Or start with her delicate feet. Strong enough to carry her for a lifetime, yet supple enough to massage and fondle. Also, by the way, often cold enough to freeze whatever they touch under the blankets! Move your eyes up those shapely calves to the curve of her thighs and roundness of her tush, and there it is again, the Bermuda Triangle, mysterious and unknown. +Well yes, as you may have noticed, I’m a man who loves vagina. Loves the way it looks, the way it smells and tastes, and most especially when treated right, the joy it gives a woman. Naturally, you don’t have to be a man to feel this way and that’s cool, too – very cool, judging by the adult video and film industry. +When you hold a woman’s legs apart and use your tongue and talents correctly, you may become a very popular lover indeed. Songs may be written about you. Statues erected of your likeness. College dorms named after you. At the very least, you’ll have very few lonely nights. As one of the lovely gals in ""Sex and the City’ once opined, ""If a man can do that well, he doesn’t need to do anything else."" How true it is. +If there’s a girl who doesn’t love having her pussy showered with affection, I haven’t met her. And if you’re new to this form of intense pleasure, if you want to be a better lover and realize there’s no manual, I believe I can help. +Now, for those of you of don’t know a vulva from a Volvo, a clitoral hood from an oven hood, let’s start with a quick and simple anatomy lesson, so we’re all on the same page when it comes to descriptions. By the way, I prefer to call the area the pussy, as I do in my stories. It’s kind of erotic, I think, where cunt is too harsh and vagina is too clinical. Plus, gash, slit, love tunnel, etc. are too cute and can get confusing. +The entire outside of the vagina is called the **vulva**. The large, soft outside lips are the **labia majora** , while the inside, thinner and more delicate lips are called the **labia minora**. High up on top, inside the inner lips is the **clitoral hood** , which when lifted reveals the **clitoris** itself, which can actually swell and become somewhat erect when stimulated. The small opening right below the clitoris is the **urethra** , where urine comes out. Below the urethra of course is the larger opening of the **vagina**. Between the vagina and the anus is the **perineum** , called the ‘taint’ in slang (‘taint the asshole, taint the vagina.’) Got all that? Good, let’s get to it. +There are many forms which can work with this type of article; Q & A, Do’s and Don’ts,Pros and Cons. I’ve ruled out Q & A because I’m not sure which Qs you’d A. As for pros and cons, there are no cons to oral sex, so that’s out. Let’s try Do’s and Don’ts. If you do, however, have any Qs, just email me, I’ll be happy to A to the best of my knowledge. +Also I must advise you, I’m not a doctor or sex practitioner. If you happen to meet a doctor that loves licking pussy as much as I do, and has done as much of it, feel free to listen to their advice instead of mine. Of course, it may cost you $100 for every 15 minutes, while I’m free (And here I was thinking that I was just cheap.) Plus, I’ve been to the doctor many times, never discussed eating pussy – not once. What do we pay them for, anyway? And with that, away we go… + **Do** understand, please, that every person on the planet is different. One woman’s honey may be another’s poison, or something like that. Instructions are fine, but we’re not assembling a bicycle here. There’s more than one way to do it. In fact, there are many, many ways, some of which I’m sure that I’m not aware of yet (though I do try _so_ hard to stay current.) As they say, communication is the key, baby. If she likes what you’re doing, or even loves it, keep it up. If she doesn’t like your technique, all is not lost. Just dial it down a notch perhaps, begin with the basics as I will explain them. If the challenge, however, is that she wants you to be wilder, crazier, more intense, please call me immediately, I’ll be right over to help. ** ** _24 hour service only available in New Jersey – sorry. _ **Don’t** rush to the vagina as soon as you’re both aroused enough to undress. Take your time, oh impatient one, it will be worth the wait and increase her arousal tenfold. Start with her neck and shoulders. Caress, kiss and lick your way down her chest, lingering on her breasts. I can not overstate how sensitive a woman’s nipples are. When you circle her aureoles with your lips or fingers, then lightly (or not so lightly, depending on her) squeeze her nipples, she’ll likely feel the vibration right down to her buzzing pussy. +Not too long on those nipples, though – she may get sensitive quickly and you don’t want to make her squirm -yet. Kiss the soft insides of her thighs, her calves, even her feet. By the time you get down to the vagina itself, she should be primed and _aching_ for your tongue. + **Do** take your time and by all means, enjoy yourself down there. It’s what you’ve been dreaming about, right? Savor the sight, the smell, and the glory of it all. Kiss it, caress it, rub your thumbs all over the soft folds of beautiful flesh. Are you getting the picture? This is no time to rush, you’re not eating an ice pop here. It’s not going to melt. Be slow and thorough. Trust me - she’ll appreciate it. + **Don’t** go right for the kill by starting off licking her clit. Men are results oriented, I know, and want to make her cum fast. But it’s not all about the orgasm, it’s about the journey. So slow down. Lick her outside and inside pussy lips first, with broad, flat strokes of your tongue. Lick around the inside of her vagina and, if you like, use your stiffened tongue like a mini penis, sticking it in and out of the hole. Lick around the bottom of her pussy and her perineum. If she’s comfortable having her asshole licked, (bless her heart) which is called rimming, then _by all means_ do so as long as you’re comfortable as well. Many men and women find this highly erotic, and I’m one of them. Even if she’s never had it done before, ask her if she’ll just give it a try. Hopefully she’s open-minded and will let you. You may send her to heaven this way. Now, when all this prep work (you call this _work_?) is done, move your tongue up to the clit and even when you get there, toy with it. Lick around the clit in circles, lick over the top, around the bottom – all before you really get down to business, which is sucking her clit into you mouth and licking it fast with the tip of your tongue until she cums. + **Do** play with her anus – again, providing she’s cool with it, which hopefully she is. It works like this: While your tongue is dancing on her clit, rub some of her juices around her little hole (cute name, huh?) This double stimulation is very arousing to her, and she’s concentrating on your tongue so much that your finger doesn’t matter, it just feels good. As she gets closer to climax, continue to rub around it until she’s breathing heavily…getting very close. Now – stick your finger in the little hole just a bit, as far as the first digit perhaps, no more. In my experience, there’s a very good chance that this will set her orgasm off like a time bomb, bucking her hips like they were on fire. Yes, the feeling of your finger in her ass will make her cum much harder – you’ll see. + **Don’t** neglect her nipples either. With your tongue on her clit, reach up, over, whatever, and gently hold her breasts. As she gets closer, circle her aureoles lightly, as I mentioned earlier. But this time, as her breathing and body language announce her impending orgasm, squeeze her nipples. Believe me, some ladies will save you the trouble and do it themselves. They know the secret, that this extra stimulation will break the bank, sending them crashing into climax at warp speed. Her moans and cries will prove me right. + **Do** try different positions. They keep things from getting stale as a result of repetition. If you, as a lover, always keep her guessing what’s next, what’s new and what’s different, you’ll always be at the top of her hit list. She’ll always look forward to making love to you. If you like the standard position, on your stomach while she lies on her back with legs spread, that’s fine. I like it too. I had a girlfriend who lived for this position. She tensed her legs so tight when she came she nearly cracked my head like a walnut. And I loved every minute of it. But try this: You’re lying on your back while she straddles your face, essentially the ""sit on my face"" position. It enables her to grind her pussy into your face as hard as she likes, which is always a treat. It also lets you easily reach up and play with her breasts. Holding hands is nice and tender, too, if you’re into that. Another favorite of mine is eating her from behind while she’s on all fours in the doggie position. And here’s a great one: she’s sitting in a chair while you kneel in front of her, happily lapping her juices. She can keep her legs spread with her feet on the floor, or place them over your shoulders. Standing up works, too, with you under her spread legs. Careful, she may go wobbly in the knees when she comes. + **Don’t** think I forgot about the 69 position. I think it’s fabulous, with one drawback. Certainly, the more aroused you get, the more feeling and passion you’ll put into your end of the bargain. But the closer you get to orgasm, either you or she will lose your concentration while you focus on how good it feels to you. Not always, I’ve known at least one girl who would keep giving me outrageous head right through her orgasm. And you can be sure I’m licking like a madman when I’m cumming. It’s just great to put **all** your energy into pleasing her, isn’t it? + **Do** hum. It means more than you enjoying your efforts. When you hold her clit in your lips and hum, it works like a small vibrator, which is exactly what it is. The vibrations will spread from her clit to all areas, and make her tingle like a tuning fork. It may seem odd at first, but not when she feels it. You hum, she’ll sing. +When she’s about to cum, you know you’re doing the right thing. So **don’t** change your approach just as she’s gonna blow. If you’re sucking on her clit and she’s squirming and shaking, her breath coming in gasps, don’t suddenly switch to licking her clit with broad strokes. You’ll kill the flow. If she’s just about there…just keep doing what you’re doing until she cums. Variety is great, but when you’re about to score a touchdown, don’t change the play. Gee, you think they discuss this in locker room pep talks? +Her clit, which you know by now is like a mini penis, is the center of her universe. So make sure that you **do** get the best access you can to it. How? By pulling the clitoral hood out of the way. To some degree, the clitoral hood, which protects her clit like an umbrella protects you from the rain, will move out of the way on its own. But not all the way. Therefore, take your thumb and from the top of the hood, pull up so that her lovely little clit is fully exposed. Do it in the light at first, so you can see what its like when you’re in a dark bedroom, closet, prison cell, basement…you know, the usual places. +Above all, **do** go for it! If you remember just one thing, it’s to lick, fondle and suck your way to her heart. There’s no downside to giving her oral sex. No taboo, no mystery. If you want to be considered a good lover, it’s **got** to be in your repertoire. You’ll love it, believe me, just love it. +Lastly, since I largely have only my own experiences to draw from, I’d truly appreciate any feedback about different methods or stories of your own. Especially from women. I’ve often said, if I can do what I do just a little better, or try one new way that works, I’m thrilled. +I sincerely hoped you’ve gained something from my article. I write only for the love of giving others enjoyment. Please read my other stories on the site, too. Good luck!" +338,How to Ejaculate Like a Young Man,Whispor,How To,2019-08-20,2019-08-20,2022-01-04 08:30:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-ejaculate-like-a-young-man,This is how I increased the force & volume of cum I produce.,"['How To', 'Prostate']",4.44,"I've always been self-conscious about the size of my penis and testicles. I'm on the small-to-average size, but always been able to sexually satisfy all of my lovers. One aspect of my sexual function that I've always been personally proud of has been the volume and force of my ejaculations. The amount of semen I would produce can only be described as ""copious"" and I could easily ejaculate over my head and onto my own face. Sadly, as we age our ejaculatory function becomes diminished, often dramatically so. After mourning the loss of my own ejaculatory prowess, I found a way to restore it to the way it functioned when I was a much, much younger man. +Here are the methods I have found successful in restoring my ejaculations to a more copious, forceful state. + **Hydration.** I cannot stress this enough. You must be well hydrated in order to produce a healthy amount of semen. You should be drinking the recommended amount of water for your age, but the best rule of thumb is to dring enough until your urine is clear, and have to urinate frequently. There are numerous other benefits to being well hydrated, too. + **Kegels.** Do them! Do a web search for instructions on how to do them and how often as the information is readily available on the net. You will see a noticeable increase in the force of your ejaculations in as little as a week, and even more as time goes by while continuing to practice them. + **Expectorant.** A what?! You may not already know what an expectorant is. When you have a cold or congestion, an expectorant thins the mucous secretions that your body produces. While it has the desired effect of thinning this mucous in your lungs and nasal passages, it also has a direct effect on the prostatic fluid that you produce. I discovered this by accident once when I was sick but very horny. Having loaded up on expectorants and water, the volume of semen I produced was noticeably larger when I masturbated and ejaculated. The chemical name of the expectorant is guaifenesin. Do _not_ buy it with a decongestant included as that will have the opposite effect. Take this a few hours before your planned ejaculation. + **Hot bath.** Most of the time, just a hot shower won't do the same as a hot bath in a bathtub. Make the water as hot as you can tolerate and keep your pelvis submerged for at least 15 minutes. This increases bloodflow to the prostate and pelvic area, and is also an effective treatment for prostatitis. + **Prostate massage.** So many men have a hang-up about inserting anything into their anus. Anal penetration does not make you gay! There are a lot of nerve endings around your anus and they feel good. That being said, prostate massage will increase the volume of prostatic fluid that is released during an ejaculation. The prostats is a very ""spongy"" organ, and manual pressure on it releases the fluid similar to the way wringing a sponge does. +It is almost impossible for a man to massage his own prostate with a finger, so unless you have a partner who can do this for you it might be best to purchase a prostate stimulator. If you are lucky enough to have a partner who will do this for you (as my wife does for me) be sure and read how to do it effectively. The prostate has two lobes, and is best massaged from the center toward the edge (again, a web search is your friend for instructions.) + **Prostate stimulator.** When I'm traveling for work, my time alone in a hotel is a masturbation holiday! I can get naked, watch porn, and edge for hours prior to achieving my orgasm and ejaculation. When I do this, I take my prostate stimulator along on the trip. I personally enjoy anal stimulation. There's something deliciously erotic about feeling that thing stretch my anus right before my body ""sucks"" it inside me and into its desired position. The benefit of having one that is contoured like a finger is that when you perform the Kegel muscle contraction, your anus squeezes it and presses it against your prostate. This releases prostatic fluid into the urethra (commonly known as milking the prostate) and it may ooze out the tip of your penis. It also loosens the fluid up that's inside the prostate similar to the way a prostate massage does. Upon ejaculation, your anus is rapidly contracting. This forces even more pressure against your prostate which in turn increased the amount of prostatic fluid released. + **Pinch it off.** There's one more thing that I discovered by accident. As you get older, your urine flow is often diminished by an enlarged prostate. If you pinch the tip of your penis prior to urinating, try to urinate, and then release the pinch you will see an improvement in urine flow and your ability to empty your bladder. When you reach the point of ejaculation, gently pinch your glans so that your urethra is closed off. Allow two ""pulses"" of your ejaculation to occur, and release right when your third contraction occurs. The force and volume of semen is greatly increased, and I find the pleasure of my orgasm is intensified. +Let me know if you get a chance to try these steps out and see an improvement. My wife was amazed at the amount of semen I can once again ejaculate, and with the exception of the prostate activities I do all of the above steps when I know she's going to give me a blowjob. That ensures she has a _lot_ of my semen to taste and swallow, as well as a more erotic facial if we're making a video." +339,How to Eliminate Writer's Block,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-12,2008-05-12,2022-01-04 08:30:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-eliminate-writers-block,Freddie's surefire ways to eliminate writer's block.,"['Bakers Dozen', 'Inspiration', 'Inspired', 'Poems', 'Stories', 'Writer', 'Writing']",4.21,"As you can tell from my 425 stories and 52 poems, I don't have any problem with writer's block. I used to, though, when I was younger. Finally, after long writing dry spells, I decided that my writer's block was attributed to not having lived enough of life, yet. I didn't have much to write about, then. I didn't have any stories to tell. +Actually, now that I think about it, my writer's block back then may have been from having too much testosterone. It's difficult to concentrate on writing stories when there are so many young women waiting to meet you. Ah, those were the days, young, dumb, and having writer's block. +Now, that I'm older and will be 88-years-old with my next birthday (cough, hack, wheeze) on July 26th, a Leo the lion, I have plenty of stories to share. By the way, I can use a new thick pile terry cloth bathrobe if someone doesn't know what to buy me. +I have plenty of surefire ways to eliminate writer's block. +1\. Get away from the story. Leave it for a few minutes, hours, days, weeks or months. Start a new story if you can. Frank McCourt who wrote Angela's Ashes took 30 years to write his Pulitzer Prize winning novel in 1996. +2\. Watch television. Read a book. Go outside and take a walk or a drive because the new images and things that you feel, smell, and hear, may induce some thoughts and reignite your story. Besides, all the while you are doing something else your brain is still percolating your story. Much like a computer that never shuts down, your mind is an amazing organ. +3\. Take a nap. Trust me, this really works. Only, just before you put your head on the pillow and close your eyes, think about your story. Think about what you wrote or what you want to write. Fill your brain with those thoughts. Even read your story over before taking a snooze. Your sub-conscious mind will percolate your story while you sleep. More often than not, as soon as you wake up, you'll have plenty of ideas to help you continue writing your masterpiece. +4\. Print out your story and read it out loud, really loud. Read your story as would an actor read his role. Put real feeling into reading your work. This will not only catch typos but also will stir thoughts in your mind about your story that you never thought you had. +4\. Take a shower. Weird, huh? I don't know why it is, but I get so many of my ideas for a story while I'm washing my hair. Go figure. After having written so many stories from taking so many showers, I have the cleanest hair. +5\. Go for a long walk. Some of my best story ideas happen when walking my dog in the dog park. The place where I walk my dog is so beautiful with hill and dale and trees and water that it's difficult not to have feel lots of emotions. Often times, as soon as I walk in the park I think, what to write today. Usually, I never answer my question, until I arrive home and sit at the computer. +6\. Take a large pad of paper and free write and/or draw and/or doodle and/or scribble. Trust me, this really works. Only as you are doing this exercise, try and keep your mind free of thoughts, that is, until the thoughts that come are about your story. The more you do this, the more you will free the blockage in your mind. +7\. You can do the same activity on a computer keyboard. Just write a bunch of unrelated words. Don't think about what it is you are writing, just write. You can list them in a line or write a bunch of nonsensical sentences. Allow your sub-conscious mind the control to choose the words while you just type them. Eventually, from what you have written will emerge a pattern of thoughts that will motivate you to write. +8\. Write only when inspired to write. You can never force yourself to write. If you try and force the words, they are never any good, anyway. +Many people ask me where I get the ideas to write so many stories. It does not take much to inspire a story that will motivate me to write it. It can be a word, an image, a thought, or a picture. +I'm weird in the fact that normally, I get the entire inspired story in my mind all at once, the beginning, the middle, and the end, including the title. It comes to me in a rush like a fast forward movie. I've even gotten thoughts for novels like that. Sometimes, I can't type fast enough to record everything before I forget it. I've forgotten more than I've captured. Matter of fact, as evidence by some of my stories, my better stories were forgotten and never written. +I think this is one of the reasons why I'm such a lousy editor because I don't see my inspired story as words and sentences and paragraphs. I see my story as a whole story and even though I read over several times, it is difficult for me to read each line individually without seeing the entire story unfold in my mind. Maybe, I should have been a movie director. +9\. Write within your window of inspiration. When I first started writing, my window of inspiration lasted only for a few minutes. After the window closes, all my writing was forced and not nearly as good as when it was inspired writing. The more you write, the longer your inspired window will remain open. +Now, my window remains open for hours at a time. Inspired writing is always the best writing. It just flows. Inspired writing is the closest thing to free writing and when you are experiencing inspired writing, you should never stop writing to read over what you wrote or to correct and edit mistakes until you feel the inspiration waning and stop. Then, sometimes, by reading over from the beginning what you wrote, you can continue to force open your window of inspiration. +10\. Know your preferred time to write. My time is very early in the morning, 5am to 9:30am and late at night, 10pm to midnight. Rarely do I write anything in between and if I do, it's never any good. +11\. Know your limitations. There are some days that I just don't have it. I couldn't write a sentence if I tried, so I don't. Then, there are some days that I'm possessed. I can easily write 5,000 words or more in a few hours. +12\. Never under any circumstances should you write while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. How dare you tarnish the artful image of writing by drinking or taking drugs? If you are unable to control your need for intoxicants, you may mail them to me so that I, uhm, can help you continue your writing while clean and sober. +No, really, you don't have to thank me. It's my pleasure. Just write me for my address where to send your cases of alcohol and drugs. +13\. I've saved the best suggestion to help you eliminate writer's block for last. Whenever you find yourself staring at a blank page, whenever you can't clear your mind to focus on what it is you want to write, whenever you are stumped and frustrated...read my stories and give them all a five vote. +I know, it sounds ridiculously self-serving, but trust me, it's not and it really works. Granted, you may have to read through a few hundred of my stories before your mind is clear enough for you to continue with your writing, but so long as you always give me a five vote, the process works like a charm. +Yes, there are those non-believers who think after reading only one of my stories that they may lose their mind. Well, lunacy is the principle behind writing and what makes for a good writer anyway, is it not? What better way to go crazy and to reignite your writing process at the same time then by reading my stories and giving them the ultimate vote of five. +Now, it is important that you always give my stories a five vote otherwise; I can't guarantee that this will work. +Good luck." +340,How To Embrace What Is,Selena_Kitt,How To,2008-12-18,2008-12-18,2022-01-04 08:30:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-embrace-what-is,Reframe your life.,"['Advice', 'Relationships']",4.57,"Remember that line Susan Sarandon says to Gina Davis in Thelma and Louise, when Gina is complaining about her husband? +""You get what you settle for."" +Well, Lori Gottlieb made a case recently in The Atlantic in the same vein: women should settle for ""Mr. Good Enough"" before it's too late. Apparently, Ms. Gottlieb has grown tired of the single mother scene. She's discovered that doing the child-thing all by yourself isn't as easy as she thought it was going to be and is now looking forlornly at all her friends who ""settled"" for less-than-perfect in their husbands and married anyway. Now she sits back and watches, green with envy, as Daddy throws a ball with Timmy in the park and Mommy actually gets to have a sandwich. +Look, I know being a single mother is hard. My mother was one for lots of years. I was one for a while, too. It isn't easy to be the only one in the house who can answer a plaintive call in the middle of the night, to clean up vomit while you're also throwing up every half an hour, or to deal with a migraine and a toddler at the same time. But no one ever said it was easy, and no one ever said life was fair. I think Ms. Gottlieb missed the memo that went around about promises and rose gardens. And that other one, about making beds and laying in them. +We all make choices, right? I chose to have children very young. I missed the whole getting drunk at frat parties and pulling my top up during Spring Break thing. I also missed, for the most part, the climb up the corporate ladder. I could have taken that route, but I chose something different. When we make a choice, we immediately close the door on something else. There is just no such thing as ""having it all."" Ms. Gottlieb chose to have a child without involving the father—a perfectly valid choice. +So why all the sour grapes now? Does the grass really look so much greener over here in marriageville? +Honestly, if you read the article, you'll see that Ms. G doesn't really want a husband. In fact, all the complaints her friends throw around about their husbands just reaffirms her idea that they have ""settled"" for something less than they deserve. But that doesn't mean she doesn't want a husband, she protests. Vehemently, she claims she does. In fact, she makes herself sound desperate enough to jump the bald guy with plumber's butt who came to fix her toilet last week and told her she had a nice ass. +Except she isn't. What she's doing is still holding onto the ideal of marriage, just like she idealized having a child. Both of those things inevitably fail to live up to our expectations. That's called _life._ Marriage isn't perfect because people aren't perfect. Having children isn't perfect, because again, human beings have faults. Having children is rarely ever what we fantasized while we were pregnant. Our spouses never live up to the image we had of them walking down the aisle. +Gottlieb's logical, practical (and rather self-absorbed) approach gets her that far... but that's where she stops. Her own narcissism keeps her from going any further. She assumes, based on her current yearning for connection (or her longing for someone she doesn't have to see all that much who'll share the financial burden, childcare and housework - it's hard to tell which she wants more...) that she should have ""settled"" for someone inferior because then, at least, she'd have a partner with whom she could run the boring, tedious and tiresome ""business"" of family - and, hey, she wouldn't even have to put on lipstick get a little nookie once in a while! +Is this chick for real!? Unfortunately, I think she is. She's bitter and angry with herself for not settling sooner, for idealizing marriage and relationship. Yet she's done nothing to change her selfish and limiting perspective. From her inflated vision, every marriage is considered ""settling."" (Except those people who were lucky enough to have romantic notions and wonderful beginnings - they just end up disappointed and bitter when the facade falls away.) +What Gottlieb doesn't seem to grasp is that it is within all of those horrible human imperfections, we find our most precious gifts. When our expectations are dashed, it opens our lives up to the fullness of possibility. What Ms. G doesn't see from her superior high horse is that settling isn't about _lowering your standards_ \- settling is about embracing what is. +Our flaws are what make us beautiful, individual, human and loveable. The Zen potter puts an intentional flaw into every piece. Amish quilters include a faulty square in every quilt. These deliberate flaws add to the unique beauty of each piece, and some traditions believe that it is through these flaws (or in humans, our wounds, our ""issues"") that gifts and beauty flow. +Perfection is too cold. The pursuit of perfection is pure torture. Imperfection, on the other hand, is not only warm and inviting - it keeps you warm at night. + _Settling_ is simply the flipped opposite of pursuing perfection. It is giving up on the ideal. However, _embracing what is_ \- that ultimately gives us _far more_ than our expectations would ever allow. If we stop trying to make things the way we want them, to control everything, to fit them into a box, we find the beauty in the people and things right in front of us. If we get out of the way of ourselves, we get the joy of connecting to another person, who is an amazing miracle, flaws and all. +If you think of it as some sort of business transaction, or ""settling,"" you're going to live a miserable life. If you truly see the beauty in the flaws, in the imperfection, you're going to find much more peace. +And that's how you embrace what is. You not only accept or tolerate it - you love it. It's not as hard as it sounds. All it requires just turning around and looking into a mirror. Are you perfect? Are you without flaws? Neither is anyone else. But you can still love yourself - and you can love those parts of someone else as well, and together, you might just find a way to heal what's broken inside you both. +That's what Ms. Gottlieb is missing. She's missing it still. +Instead, she encourages woman to settle: ""...do it young, when settling involves constructing a family environment with a perfectly acceptable man who may not trip your romantic trigger—as opposed to doing it older, when settling involves selling your very soul in exchange for damaged goods."" +Good grief! Men magically turn into damaged goods after the age of 30? Do they all just go downhill? Or do they get picked over, like the best fruit at the farmer's market, so only the bruised and rotted ones are left? Perhaps it's not the crop, but discernment of the person choosing that's out of whack here... +It's sad to see a woman so afraid to let go she's backed herself into a self- constructed catch-22, someone so caught in their own condescending vision of the world, they can't open their eyes and see what's right in front of them. But it's obvious that she isn't ready to let go of her high expectations, in spite of her lip service to the contrary. Maybe she never will be. +But until she is, she's not gonna find Mr. Good Enough... let alone Mr. Right... or even Mr. Right Now. At the moment, she doesn't really want a husband. She wants to complain. +I do have one suggestion for her though... +Okay, two... +1\. Get over yourself. 2\.

My impression is for the most part that a lot of men want it and a lot of women are horrified at the very thought. Generally, society has frowned on this type of sex, as reflected in derogatory remarks such as ""asshole"". Unfortunately, a lot of people are missing out on a great addition to their sexual repertoire. +Before I go any further, I want to VERY clearly urge anyone with ANY concerns about their health to USE a condom. Even the gentlest anal sex can cause tiny nicks and scratches that could easily conduct any organisms straight into your body. +The anus has a multitude of nerves and muscles which when stimulated correctly, can provide enormous pleasure. Two sphincters are obvious when a finger is inserted – the first which provides the 'pucker"" with which everyone is familiar, the other, about half an inch in. The first is controlled by the individual consciously – thus you can tighten or loosen it at will. The second is controlled by the part of the brain that controls bodily functions such as heartbeat, breathing etc – i.e. you cannot control its reactions directly. Proper and gentle manipulation can be equally enjoyable for men – whose prostrate can be stimulated from the insertion of a finger in the rectum – and for women, whose G spot is readily massaged through this form of lovemaking. +I would highly recommend that each individual familiarize themselves with their own bodies, exploring their own fundaments first to gauge the feeling and reactions that the insertion of a finger or object engenders. +As an aficionado myself, and female, I thought it would be helpful to address the issue and give my own suggestions/recommendations respecting the introduction and enjoyment of this unique form of lovemaking. I will deal with male penetration of a female's rectum as that is what I can recommend and am familiar with. +Anal sex is not something that should be introduced on a whim, nor thrust upon someone who is unfamiliar with this very arousing form of lovemaking. Ultimately, I believe that preparation and patience are the two primary ingredients of a successful introduction to anal sex. +A subtle yet honest form of behaviour modification works very well in this regard. Introducing your lover by attempting to push a stiff penis up a very small area unused to intrusions from that side of the body is a guarantee of failure. Rather, start gently and carefully. +1\. First, begin with oral sex – an excellent starting point as you not only have intimate access to the desired area but as your lover's arousal increases, you are provided with the opportunity to gently and subtly introduce a finger; for instance, just tickling the fundament as your tongue takes care to keep her attention focused on the main event. As your lover starts to peak, push your finger very gently within the rim – do not go too deep or you will not only most likely derail her orgasm (thus creating a very frustrated and angry lover), you will also overstep the first steps to successful seduction. +Do this frequently and often, allowing her to slowly get accustomed to the feel of something tickling her anus, and in turn, linking an orgasm with the sensation of a foreign object around her anus. Done correctly, she will unconsciously begin to enjoy the extra stimulation provided by a careful finger or a warm tongue. +My strongest advice – DO NOT rush it! Most of us have been taught from a young age that anything to do with the very natural functions conversant with an anus are ""dirty"", that anything to do with the butt is ""hands off"". So not only do most people have to deal with the startling reality of accustoming themselves to something foreign in their anus – even more importantly, they have to overcome societal imperatives and parental restrictions. +2\. Second, after your lover has become accustomed to – and learned to enjoy – non-threatening anal play, slowly begin to increase the level of your insertion. The anus does not self-lubricate, so unless your finger is sufficiently lubricated with your partner's own juices, then use a proper lubricant such as KY jelly or something similar. Providing oral sex while gently thrusting your finger in and out of her anus after she has learned to enjoy anal play is guaranteed to provide a very satisfactory and intense orgasm – thus continuing your gentle behaviour modification. +At this stage, it can also be stimulating and encouraging to gently insert a finger during intercourse. This can be done in a variety of positions, the easiest being the female kneeling and the male penetrating from the back. He then has easy access to her rectum and although it can be tricky, the sensation engendered by double penetration can be seductive and immensely exciting. +3\. Third. After a sufficient period of time has elapsed and your lover has become accustomed to and enjoys her anus being stimulated, then you can begin preparations for actual anal intercourse. +There are some basic rules and preparation that I would highly recommend if you want an enjoyable and satisfying experience with anal sex. I will list them below: +• Be healthy – ensure there is plenty of fibre in your diet so that your natural functions are normal and healthy. Some individuals prefer to have an enema to ensure no fecal matter is present, but if your diet is healthy and you have emptied your bowels, I do not believe this is necessary. +• Have a recommended lubricant on hand, such as KY jelly. +• Be conscious at all times of your lover's responses – being aware and responsive to her reactions is crucial if both parties are to enjoy the process. +4\. Next, it is probably most helpful to introduce anal sex when your lover is already open, relaxed and aroused – i.e. don't START with it but consider it the culmination of a sexy, fun and enthusiastic session of lovemaking. This is also advised because due to matters of hygiene and possible cross- contamination, it is highly recommended than the penis is washed thoroughly and carefully with soap and water after anal sex. The penis must be washed both to avoid any bacteria that might cause infection in the penis, but also to avoid giving your lover any issues. +Thus, assuming that you are now ready to introduce the penis, I suggest the following: +1\. Lots of lubrication – particularly the first few times – play with your partner's anus with lubricated fingers and warm tongue until the rectum is relaxed and open. You can lubricate her rectum during play. Then, ensure that your penis is similarly coated with a safe lubricant. +2\. Choosing a position which is comfortable for both of you – spoon fashion works very well especially for the first few times as it gives the woman more control – holding your penis firmly, push it gently – and I mean gently, against the lubricated rectum. A lubricated anus together with a lubricated penis almost guarantees that the spongy head of the penis will slowly push in. JUST as you enter – STOP! +It should be noted at this point, that the two sphincter muscles I mentioned above now become relevant. The woman can help with the first muscle by pushing out as if having a bowel movement - that flares the anus open and gives egress to the penis. BUT, once the head of the penis has entered, the man must stop and allow the inner sphincter muscles to accommodate themselves to the intrusion. However, eager and open she is, the woman cannot control that inner muscle and must wait for her body to accommodate – forcing it at this point could damage and tear the muscles. +3\. Let the woman take the initiative at this point. She has to accustom herself to the feel of the penis in her butt – the sensation when first experienced can feel quite uncomfortable, as if you need to have a bowel movement. Allow her the time to relax both physically (given time, the inner ring of muscles will loosen) and emotionally, to the feel of a penis in her rectum. Allow her to take the lead, to indicate either verbally or through her body that she is ready for you to push a little more of your penis up. Again, GO SLOW. As the penis is thrust up the fundament, that ring of muscles will once again tighten; allow them the time to loosen and relax as they accommodate the girth of the penis. +Once the entire penis is inserted to the groin, relax and enjoy the sensation before actually beginning to thrust. The woman can flex and constrict the outer ring of muscles as she becomes used to the feel. By slowing wiggling her bottom, she can control the rhythm and make the decision when she wants her partner to push in or out. +4\. The feel of a penis up your rectum is immensely arousing once you have been properly prepared. There is the physical reality that the anus has a multitude of nerve endings and muscles that signal pleasure, the feel of a thrusting penis against the G spot can induce a sensation unlike any other (and can actually eventually lead to female ejaculation which will be the subject of another essay) and then the emotional reality that you are engaging in a ""forbidden"" pleasure can be in itself stimulating and exciting. +From that point on, keeping hyper aware of your partner's response, you can engage in an increasingly enthusiastic bout of anal intercourse. As the intercourse continues, while the anus itself doesn't self lubricate, the sensation and intense pleasure will ensure that the woman's natural lubrication together with the male's pre-cum mingle to form a very satisfactory and slippery lubricant which adds to the pleasure and allows intercourse to become more enthusiastic. +The man at this point, may want to reach around and stimulate the woman's clitoris manually as it is quite common for women to require a little extra stimulation. +The only drawback to anal sex at this point occurs when the very exciting session has culminated and both partners have orgasmed. While it is tempting to loll in bed and enjoy the aftermath, it is crucial to wash within a reasonably quick period after sex – both the male and the female – to avoid the possibility of any infections. +I would add at this point that once you and your partner have a little more experience, some may prefer to use less lubricant or dispense with it altogether. Many females such as myself prefer the rougher stimulus provided by an unlubricated penis. +All in all, anal sex can be an exciting, arousing and fun addition to lovemaking." +342,How to Enjoy Fantastic Sex,Collectable,How To,2009-06-10,2009-06-10,2022-01-04 08:31:00,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-enjoy-fantastic-sex,Giving and getting max pleasure.,"['Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",3.76,"Let's face it: sex can range from rape and violent or drug induced physical domination to the self-pleasures of masturbation. The difference between routine once or twice-a-week or month, plain vanilla sex (which is still pretty good) and fantastic sex is almost all in your mind. Certainly it's not for everyone, even within a good, long-term relationship. But, with a willing, trusting, spontaneous and unselfish partner it is surely worth striving for. Obviously, not every sexual experience will qualify as fantastic, but even winning ball players think batting 300 is pretty good. Fantastic sex may not be a lifelong lifestyle, but even a few experiences should make it worthwhile for you. Be aware that this article is not about how to pick up girls or boys. It's aimed at people who are already in a relationship and who want to make it more exciting and rewarding. +The following suggestions are not exclusive or even comprehensive. Mostly they're not original. But they touch many of the bases. More important, they can be learned and taught. Some of these suggestions may reflect my male point of view. +Some of the ingredients are absolutely necessary. Some of the ingredients are optional (desirable but not absolutely necessary). A liberal dose of Love (with a capital L) can make the whole cake even tastier. But sex can still be fantastic even without the long-term commitment of love. +One word of caution: The game of FANTASY prescribes agreement on a set of words that give both partners a sense of safety and control. The expression 'green light' signals that everything is going okay or that it's okay to keep going or move ahead. 'Yellow light' tells your partner that you have questions about how things are going and that it may be time to discuss the situation. 'Red light' signals that everything should stop immediately. This will allow a partner to say 'No' or 'Stop' or 'Don't' as part of the game (of spanking, for instance), or to heighten sensations, without stopping the action. After discussion of the situation, a green light may get things going again. +* Basic ingredients: +Find a willing partner. +The reality is: you can't have fantastic sex by yourself (despite Woody Allen's comment that, 'I was the best I ever had'.) The partner should be physically attractive to you and he/she should be able and willing to share fantasies with you and work to fulfill them. +Start with a fantasy. +Probably everyone over the age of ten or twelve has enjoyed sexual fantasies. The secret of fantastic sex starts with designing a fantasy that you and your partner can get excited about. In some ways it's like scripting a play or a movie. Each of you has one or more roles to play. The script doesn't need to be too tight so long as everyone involved has a strong sense of who their character is and how they are expected to behave. +Of course, websites like Literotica, can be a treasure trove of ideas for your fantasies. And erotic movie sites can give you lots of examples of what others are doing. +Have a goal for each experience. +Setting goals shouldn't become a burden, but it will be helpful for lots of people to determine what you expect to do, and how you will know if you are succeeding, when you start experimenting and adventuring. +Take the time. +When you have your 'scipt' in mind, commit sufficient time in your schedule to do justice to the production. You can always start out with a mini-production to be completed in a couple of hours. But allow yourself the flexibility to expand the scenario if the action invites such an expansion. +Have a place. +In town, out of town, in your bedroom, in a bar or hotel lobby, even in a make-believe office or on a train or plane. It's your fantasy. Put it where you want it so long as the location is affordable and satisfying. Remember: it's a fantasy. Back seat sex may have been fun, but with all the anxieties it was not always fantastic. +Maintain your heath. +It stands to reason that sex will be more fun if both of you are in decent shape. Not many fantasies focus on sloppy fat, short-winded or drunk or drugged-out lovers. +* Give more than you get--Partner's pleasure comes first +Look back at those words: willing, trusting, spontaneous and unselfish. They apply to you as much as to your partner. If both of you are striving to give more than you get, you can't possibly lose. Learning what excites and pleases your partner-and helping to provide that experience-will also open new doors for your own growth and pleasure. +Giving more than you get will also help you avoid the disappointments of exploitation that mar many relationships. +* Discover what turns your lover on +We'll talk more about 'talking,' but sometimes the best ways to discover what turns your lover on are by asking and discussing and exploring. Trying a variety of things helps. Reading romances or porn, and watching movies may help. Talking with friends about their experiences can work for some people. +* Discover what turns you on +What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. You need to be open and adventurous in sharing your own preferences and in discovering new turn on's. It's essentially a matter of telling your partner what you'd like to try. Or like them to try. Even stores like Borders or Barnes and Noble have shelves full of illustrated books showing a variety of positions lovers can enjoy. The right words are always a turn on. +* Never say 'no'--Be spontaneous +If you're going for the whole enchilada you have to learn to say ""yes"" to almost anything that isn't physically or mentally painful or criminal. The fact that you haven't done something before shouldn't be an excuse for not trying it now. The possibility that some anonymous ""they"" might not approve can't be allowed to stand in your way, especially if your activities are conducted in private. Discretion and common sense precautions should be practiced, especially where others outside the partnership are involved. There's not much to be gained by taking unnecessary chances with strangers or potentially dangerous equipment or activities or drugs. +* Lovemaking should be fun for everyone +Fantastic sex will never be a chore though it may sometimes be physically exhausting. At times the learning process may be awkward, but if a particular activity never becomes enjoyable for both partners, look for another turn on. If it's not fun for everyone it's not fantastic. +* Don't let jealousy spoil things +There may be times when jealousy is justified, but it is always likely to get in the way of fantastic sex. If you and your partner can't trust each other enough to set ground rules you can both live with then you probably need to find another field of adventure like sky diving. +* No surprises +Surprises may be a great way to celebrate a birthday or some other special occasion. And there are some surprises than can make for fantastic sex. But there are some other surprises that are guaranteed to make for rough sailing on the seas of fantastic sex. +Don't share your infections with your lover +There's absolutely no fun in sexually transmitted diseases. If you have a SID take yourself out of the game until your problem is solved. Not only might you harm your partner, but you may be committing a crime. And when the word gets out that you're so thoughtless, you'll find it hard to get back into the game with quality partners. +No pregnancies, please +With the availability of condoms and birth control measures, why take a chance on pregnancy? If you're in the market for babies, sex can still be fantastic but its nature will change over time. +Careful with commitments +Until you're ready to make a commitment don't depend on lies. Find a partner who can join you in the spirit of fun and growth rather than long-term death- do-us-part commitment. 'Fantasy Sex' can allow you the freedom to say or promise anything you want to heighten your partner's enjoyment within the script with the understanding that it all turns to smoke an hour after the stage lights go out and you part. +Never kiss and tell +Unless you're pimping your partners, there's no excuse (and no need) to tell others about your/their physical superiority or your adventures. If you decide to get into group activities, this may change. +* Watch your language-praise, flattery, domination, subservience +Remember that fantastic sex is largely a matter of seduction. Words are a major ingredient in that equation. If your partner likes dirty talk, fine, but don't let your language turn them off. The point is for both of you to relish the experience, so cater to their desires and make them feel better than good. Telling each other what you want and what you enjoy is paramount. Making your partner feel appreciated is good form and usually very rewarding. Unless you're a mime or a deaf mute, silent sex is not likely to be fantastic sex. +* Don't be a cherry picker---Forget beginners +Despite all the fantasies about finding a virgin, most newcomers are pretty nervous about the whole thing. And this makes for awkwardness or clumsiness and embarrassment. If you find yourself in a relationship with a virgin, go strong on foreplay, verbal and otherwise. Finding someone who wants to expand their somewhat limited horizons can be much more rewarding than a relationship with someone who has no horizons to expand. +* Variety is the spice of love- +Millions of marriages and other relationships, even in this enlightened age, are mired in sameness. Months and years of the missionary position with no variations are designed to give rise to headaches and boredom and a desire for change and/or variety. But attitude is still trump. If you know what excites your partner, agree on experimentation and strive to give more than you get, you don't need to sink in 'ho hum.' +Bondage +Not for everyone, but a turn on for some, male and female. It's probably not worth doing some of the things that are obviously dangerous and/or harmful to one or more of the partners but some folks do turn on when tied up. +Domination +Fun when acceptable to both but just as a spice for most. Sure, some women like to pretend they're a slut and be treated accordingly. Some men find pleasure in being treated like dogs. But how often can you give more than you get from a droid? +Sadomasochism +Unless you have a partner who really turns on to pain, this isn't likely to be a long-term appetizer on your menu. Some people do enjoy mild biting and spanking, but be sure the appetite is mutual. +Anal +While you're learning to create greater enjoyment, anal may be worth a try. Again, if both partners enjoy it, fine. Kisses and tongues and fingers in the anal area can heighten pleasure for both partners. But be alert to the possibility that what one man enjoys is just a pain in the ass for his partner. And don't invite infections by going from anal to vaginal without proper cleansing. +Oral +Sex without oral sensations will probably never approach the fantastic level. How can you leave out kissing? Then why leave out kisses to each other's erogenous zones? According to popular mythology, having a lover swallow his cum is a world-class turn-on for many men. The same mythology tells us that many women find great pleasure in having a partner use his/her tongue on their vaginas. For older generations, perhaps especially women, oral may be a 'turn off' rather than a 'turn on'. +Interracial +As is true of most fantastic sex, the wonder of having sex with someone of another race is mostly in the mind. Life doesn't start with interracial sex and life doesn't end if you never experience interracial sex. But if both of you have the goal of providing maximum pleasure for your partner and interracial sex is one of your fantasies, it can be as fantastic as any other. It's a worthwhile variation if you think it is. Remember you can imagine your partner is Tibetan if you want to. +Exhibitionism +Some people really get turned on by displaying their bodies in a sexual way. The fashion industry would go bust if women quit wanting to draw attention to their cleavage or their well-shaped bottoms. Flashers flaunt the law for a reason (not necessarily a healthy reason). The key to success may well be a matter of maintaining control and avoiding criminal activities. The bedroom is one good place to make the most of this appetite with seductive exposure. Group activities, where everyone is of a like mind, is another. +Voyeurism +Watching other people, your partner or others, engaging in sexual activities is a great turn on for some people. Peeping through other peoples' windows is criminal. The availability of pornography today makes it seem foolish to risk activities that might become embarrassing for one or both of you just to satisfy this appetite. Filming your own activities, with one of you in disguise is worth considering. +Taboo +Taboos such as incest and sex with someone in a dominant/subservient or forbidden status are often illegal. That doesn't keep them from providing good or even fantastic sex, but be alert to the criminal aspects which can be a damper for some. Surely you can imagine your partner is a parent or priest or boss. +Fetish +The range of fetishes is broad. The object is to discover what fetishes, if any, excite and please your partner and give them as much pleasure as you can. Once again, Literotica and films can help open your imagination to possibilities. +Homosexual +Most of these suggestions work as well in homosexual/lesbian relationships as they do in heterosexual relationships. +If you believe the common mythology, most men are turned on by watching two women make love. If your partner is interested and has a willing companion, fine. Pushing the issue may be a turn-off for your partner, but there are hundreds of porno films that may be exciting for both of you without causing your partner to feel pressured to do something they would rather avoid. +Group +Group activities may be a fertile ground for realizing fantasies. They can also be a fertile ground for all sorts of jealousies and other complications, social or legal or health related. Caution and discretion are the order of every day when you reach out to others to help make your dreams come true. +* It's all in your mind: words and looks and imagination +We'll say it again. Fantastic sex occurs when one or both of you are living out a fantasy. Once may be enough for a given fantasy, but work together to give it a fair try. Again, films and books and projections of story lines from others can all serve to feed your imagination and help structure your adventures. +* Talk, talk, talk-the ultimate aphrodisiac/foreplay +A common complaint among women, if you believe all the self-help books, is that their partners don't talk to them enough. If you want to experience fantastic sex, it's worth talking with your partner about what turns them on, what turns them off, and what you want to try. Learn to let loose of your inhibitions. +It's bound to be fruitful to give your partner all sorts of verbal encouragement and compliments before, during and after your sexual activities. +You can send non-verbal signals as well. If you want your partner to behave in a certain way, have an agreement that he/she will echo your own behavior, then do for/to them what you want them to do for/to you. +Ask for what you want with your words and your actions. And reward your partner with appreciation. +* Know the erogenous zones +Make a concerted effort to learn all the special spots that give your partner exceptional pleasure. +* Use all your senses for maximum pleasure-touch, taste, sounds/words, aromas, sights +Words are not the only verbal signals you can send. Make the most of your moans and groans and gasps. +Use your fingers and tongue to excite your partner in any way you can. Caressing, kissing, licking, biting, tonguing all have a place. +Use seductive settings (candles, romantic music, the sound of the ocean, exciting or pleasing aromas, flavored douches) to stimulate your senses and your partner's senses. Movies can also serve to make the adventure more fantastic. +Bon appetite!" +343,How To Enjoy Fellatio,nancylondon,How To,2007-05-04,2007-05-04,2022-01-04 08:31:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-enjoy-fellatio,Giving head: it's easier than you may think.,"['Blowjob', 'Fellatio', 'First Time Blowjob', 'Give Head', 'How To', 'Suck Dick']",4.55,"Fellatio, blowjob, giving-head, call it what you wish - either you enjoy doing it or you don't. This How-To is geared toward the women out there who either have never gone down on a man before and have mixed feelings, or have performed but do not like it. If you fall in to one or both of those camps, continue reading and maybe you'll walk away with a little more enthusiasm for you, and your partner, to share. +First, a little background information. I am a midwestern, born-and-raised, Catholic school girl. I'm proud of my roots and I do not wish to have grown up any different. Unlike many of my girlfriends back then, I was always the quiet chick. Boys noticed me but seldom made any passes. In fact, it wasn't until my last year in high school that I had my first boyfriend, Mark. Up until then, the closest I've ever been to sexually intimate was dry humping with my best friend at a homecoming dance. Seriously, I was probably the most inexperienced girl you could have ever known. So you can imagine my reaction when, after five months together, Mark whipped ""it"" out one night. My faced turned so red, I couldn't even look at him. Not only was I afraid to make a fool of myself by even attempting it, but the act of going down on a man just ... struck of a nerve for me. +Mark apologized profusely after that night, but nothing could ease my own disappointment for not being able to please him. We didn't talk about the issue for quite awhile, until one afternoon on our sixth month anniversary. I remember us being in my room, as I starting necking him. Then I began kissing and licking his chest, watching him writhe and groan from the excitement. None of it was anything foreign, but something about the atmosphere made the experience seem more erotic. I moved down to his stomach and listened as his breathing deepened and his voice intensified. ""God, I'm doing this to him!"" I thought, and it made me even more turned on. Without really thinking about it, the next thing I knew his pants were around his ankles and the head of his erect penis throbbed inside my mouth. I started going through with the motions, and although he seemed to love it, I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. The taste wasn't bad, but the constant gagging sensation was. I couldn't even finish him off because I felt like I was going to throw up. I definitely hated myself at that point. +So what was the problem? Many things, but nothing that couldn't be helped. We tried it again a few weeks later, and the experience was slightly less intimidating. Eventually, it was no longer nauseating for me to perform on him. I couldn't say I was any more enthusiastic about the act, but I did it to please him anyways. There was something psychological about a man's penis being in my mouth that just weirded me out. I thought that I would never be able to enjoy fellatio for as long as I would live. Of course, I was completely wrong. Four years later, giving head is now one of my favorite activities to do with my new fiance. And I don't feel grossed out, laborious, or slutty either. +Everyone is familiar with the age-old expression, ""Where there's a will, there's a way."" There certainly is both in the area of giving head, and it's all about your determination to reach a comfort level with it. But there may be obstacles that stand in the way of that. Below are some very common concerns by other women I have met, and my advice to them: +\--- +""I just don't like the idea going down on a man. I don't know why - I guess it's just gross."" +For most women, there are usually only two reasons for this. 1) You feel that the penis is dirty, unsanitary, germ-infested, etc. Or, 2) You feel that the act itself is morally unclean and degrading. If your dilemma is the former, here's a little fun fact for you: there is actually more bacteria in your lover's mouth than there will ever be on his penis. Millions more, in fact. Yet, you find nothing unnerving about kissing your partner, do you? If that's not enough for you, then a viable solution would be to use a warm, sanitized cloth to clean off his genitals prior to performing on him. Don't worry about your man objecting to this; most men quite enjoy the sensation. +However, if you fall into the later, ask yourself this: is there anything morally unjust with two consenting lovers having intercourse? If you answered ""no"", then why is fellatio any different? Both acts involve an enormous amount of trust on both behalves by allowing the man to penetrate the woman, regardless of location. Oral sex, like sex itself, is a sacred act of intimacy and an extension of showing one's love for another. By its very definition then, there is nothing inherently wrong with going down on your partner. +\--- +""I've given head to my boyfriend many times in the past, but I still find it hard to enjoy it. When he's inside of my mouth, it's very difficult to keep him away from the back of my throat. I'm constantly gagging as a result, and it's something that hasn't gone away."" +Having a gag reflex is a very normal response. It's your body's way of warning you that you're dangerously close to swallowing something that may be too large to consume. Of course that isn't the case here, so it would be ideal to turn this function off, wouldn't it? It may be distressing to know time after time, you're still experiencing the same discomfort when performing on your lover. This was very much the case with me with my first boyfriend. However, there are things you can do to lessen your gag reflex. +The next time you go down on your partner, try bringing him as far into your mouth as you can, right before you feel the urge to gag. Hold it there for as long as you can until you can't take it longer, catch a breather, and repeat. Over time, you'll find your throat will adapt to this action and it won't be nearly as sensitive. Or, an alternative for those who would like a quick fix, there are many over-the-counter oral-anesthetic sprays that help numb the gag reflex. If you'd prefer something stronger (like, totally-numbing) you can speak to your doctor about Cetacaine. Simply tell him or her you have difficulty brushing your teeth and swallowing pills without gagging, and they will be more than happy to prescribe it to you. +\--- +""My boyfriend has been pressuring me to give him head, but I really don't want to. I love him, I really do, but I just don't know how to do it. I'm afraid I won't pleasure him, or worse, that I'll hurt him."" +What you probably have is performance anxiety. Meaning, you're afraid to try new things in fear that you won't be good at them. Of course, him pressuring you isn't going to make it easier, so you should sit him down and explain why it is you don't feel comfortable doing it. One thing to realize though, is that men have their work cut out for them when it comes to oral sex on us women. Not that fellatio is an easy affair, but it's considerably more straight-forward. Quick tips for that: pay special attention to the head of his penis. It is the most sensitive area and will respond well to stimulation. Also, never under any circumstances, allow your teeth to rub against or sink into his shaft. For most men, this is a path straight to hell. Aside from those, you're free to stroke, lick, kiss, and suck your way around. I will write an in-depth article on actually performing fellatio in a future How-To, but for now simply relax and do what comes natural. +Something important to realize is that if he really loves you, how good you're doing will be the last thing on his mind. Plus, like the old saying goes, ""Practice makes perfect"". You can't get anywhere, let alone better, if you don't try. Another tidbit: I find it incredibly erotic at the sight of my man enjoying what I do to him. The way his knees weaken and his jaw hangs low turns me on intensely. I love to give him head more so because I know he loves to receive it. So, that's something to keep in mind in building more comfort and confidence. +\--- +""What if he comes in my mouth? I'm not sure if I'm ready for that. I heard semen tastes really bad. I told him to let me know when he's about to so I can decide what to do, but I'm afraid he'll get too caught up in the moment and forget."" +The great debate: to spit or swallow. Or for many, to even allow semen to enter your mouth at all. Personally, I've gotten used to swallowing. For me, it's much more than the act itself - it's the ultimate form of trust between two lovers. But it's also the most practical solution simply because it leaves no mess. Otherwise, if you allow him to ejaculate in your mouth, but you don't wish to swallow, you'll need to find a place to spit it out. Or even worse, if he pulls out and it gets all over your face and body, you better have a roll of Bounty near by. +As far as taste goes, it varies from guy to guy. Some are sweet as sugar, while others are down right rotten. Pay attention to his diet to find out what his might be like. If he eats a lot of fruits, candy, or anything with high sugar content, his semen will also taste sweet. However, if he drinks a lot of alcohol, smokes, or eats excessive red meat, he's likely to taste very bitter. Either way, a good remedy to ensure good taste is getting him to drink lots (and I mean lots) of pineapple juice. You'll be amazed as to how much of an impact it'll have. +\--- +That's about it. In summary, many woman have their reasons for disliking fellatio. However, none of these should be debilitating for your partners pleasure. When I was younger, I had a difficulty going down on men, but it eventually grew on me. It didn't hurt that my first boyfriend was a very kind, understanding guy that helped me learn to love the act. And whether you're afraid to perform because of hygiene, personal beliefs, bodily restraints, or just general apprehension, you can find hope in the fact that it does get better through time. Giving head doesn't need to be a chore, it can be something that both you and your lover can enjoy. It's all a matter of will power, and whether or not eventually being able to show your love for him in this manner, is important to you. +I hope this helped, and I wish you the best of luck!" +344,How To Enjoy Sex During Pregnancy,Selena_Kitt,How To,2006-03-28,2006-03-28,2022-01-04 08:31:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-enjoy-sex-during-pregnancy,Tips and tricks for enjoying sex during pregnancy and beyond.,"['Different Positions', 'Postpartum', 'Pregnancy', 'Pregnant', 'Pregnant Sex', 'Sex During Pregnancy', 'Trimesters']",4.55,"When I was pregnant with my first baby, I didn’t feel like having sex much during the first trimester—I was nauseous and exhausted. During the second trimester, I felt back to my old self, in fact, I wanted sex more than ever, it seemed, but then my husband seemed suddenly disinterested in sex, which was very unusual for him. I thought it was because of my growing tummy, but when we talked, I discovered that he thought sex might harm the baby! That’s just one of the many common misconceptions about sex during pregnancy. Having a baby doesn’t mean the sex stops, (obviously, since people do have more than one baby!) it just means that you have to make a few adjustments as you grow as a couple, and a family. + **Reasons Not to Have Intercourse** +There are a few reasons to stop having sex during pregnancy, and your doctor will tell you about them, if they apply to you. If you are concerned, don’t by shy about asking. Things like placenta previa (where the placenta implants over the cervix), premature labor, unexplained vaginal bleeding, abdominal cramping, cervical insufficiency, a dilated cervix, or ruptured membranes (your water has broken), might be reasons for you to stop having _intercourse_ for part or all of the duration of pregnancy. + Now, this doesn’t mean that the sexual energy can’t keep flowing between you—and there are plenty of alternatives to intercourse, including self- stimulation, mutual masturbation, oral sex and even anal sex, if you’re into that. (You just have to be meticulous about hygiene, so as not to spread any possible bacteria to the vaginal area—you want to really avoid infection during pregnancy.) If your doctor has said no orgasms (for her) this doesn’t mean that you can’t work together to stimulate him! + **Changes** +The majority of couples can continue to have sex throughout the entire pregnancy, but you still have to make adjustments as you go along. The female body goes through a lot of changes during those nine months, which aren’t all bad, actually. Some women become aroused more easily, they climax more quickly (some even start having multiple orgasms for the first time during pregnancy!) and many men find the new curvy, ripe bodies of their partner even sexier. The opposite is true, too, of course—some women experience a lag in their libido, and some men are turned off by the burgeoning shape of pregnancy, or they’re afraid that sex might hurt the baby. Any of these feelings are normal. As a couple, if you know what to expect, you may be able to circumvent or deal with the changes better, and this may improve your sex life during pregnancy and beyond. + _ **First trimester**_ +In the early months, you have to battle fatigue, sometimes along with nausea and fear of miscarriage. Breasts will be enlarged, and probably more tender, so care should be taken. + _ **Second trimester**_ +Hormonal surges level off. Fatigue and morning sickness usually lessen, the fear of miscarriage subsides as the statistical risk decreases, and many women show a surge in sexual desire. The heightened sensitivity of the erogenous zones is so thrilling to many women that they experience more enthusiasm for sex during the middle months of pregnancy than at any time in their lives. + _ **The Final Months**_ +In the final months, a woman may feel too large, too awkward, or too preoccupied with the coming birth. In the third trimester, as the ballooning abdomen literally comes between the woman and her partner, most women report that they focus more on becoming maternal rather than being sexual. Even if the body is willing, it is often clumsy. + **Common Misconceptions** +There are some common misconceptions about sex during pregnancy that we should get out of the way. Knowing that some of these are false may inhibit you less, and allow you both to enjoy sex more, which is always a good thing. + _ **Sex Will Hurt the Baby**_ +Nope. The baby is very well-protected in there. Men sometimes worry that penetration will hurt the baby, but a quick lesson in anatomy shows that, in fact, the penis isn’t hitting the baby’s head, like you may fear—it is touching the mouth of the uterus, or the cervix, which is sealed with a thick mucous plug to guard against infection. The motion of sex may actually rock your baby to sleep! Sometimes the baby will be more active after a woman has an orgasm, not because it is feeling any pain or knows what’s happening, but because it is responding to the mother’s hormone level and heart rate changes. So don’t let this myth hold back! + _ **Sex Will Hurt The Mother**_ +The engorgement of the vagina during this time and the ever softening cervix can be a source of discomfort at times, especially with very deep penetration, but this just requires an adjustment in terms of positions. With a little experimenting, you can find a position and technique that works for you both. Communication is key—if it hurts, stop, and try a different position or another angle. There are lots of alternate positions that I’ll talk about later that you can try. The good news is that the engorgement of the genitals and more sensitive nerve endings can also make the pleasure more intense! + _ **Having Sex Will Cause Premature Labor**_ +Having sex can cause contractions—but these are the “practice” contractions of labor, (called “Braxton-Hicks”) not the real deal. It’s normal for a woman to experience some uterine contractions after an orgasm or after sex. This isn’t premature labor. There is no medical evidence showing that the act of sex causes labor, although stimulation of the breasts and nipples can speed up the production of oxytocin, which can cause contractions as a woman nears her due date. As long as you’re not at risk for preterm labor, there shouldn’t be a problem. If the contractions continue longer than an hour, then call your doctor. + _ **Oral Sex is Out**_ +I never did understand this myth. Why would oral sex be a no-no during pregnancy? Normal oral sex won’t harm your baby at all, and it’s actually the perfect solution if you’re one of the couples who have been told not to have intercourse during pregnancy. The only risk is introducing air into the vagina, but this applies before pregnancy as well. Blowing air into the vagina could cause an air embolism (obstructing a blood vessel) which could potentially kill a woman, so that is definitely out—but regular oral sex? It’s perfectly safe! + **Making it Enjoyable** +There are ways to make this time in your life even better sexually than it was before. Here are a few tips and tricks to keep the fire alive during pregnancy. + ** _1\. Act Sexy_** +For pregnant women, there often comes a point when they don’t feel sexy anymore. Their bodies feel different, ungainly, everything feels “off.” The good news is, acting can effect feeling, so if you act sexy, you can actually start feeling sexy before you know it. This can start a wonderful cycle of acting and feeling sexy, a wave you can both ride. + ** _2\. Accentuate the Positive_** +Another way to feel sexy is to get a sexy new look. Try a different hairstyle, experiment with make-up, buy some sexy accessories. So, you may not be able to fit into that corset, but you can still wear a sex nightgown, or buy yourself some sexy jewelry. + ** _3\. Communicate_** +Talk to each other about the way the pregnancy is effecting how you feel about sex. You may simply be under a false assumption, like I was during my first pregnancy, thinking my husband didn’t want be because I was “getting fat,” when it was really just that he was worried about hurting the baby. You never know what mountains you’re making out of mole hills until you talk about it. + ** _4\. The Power of Attraction_** +Women often worry that their burgeoning shape is unattractive to men, but research shows that this usually isn’t the case. Men’s eyes are actually drawn to soft curves, and you have a nice, big, soft curve up front now for him to feast his eyes on. Most men really do like the fleshy feel and look of a pregnant woman’s body. If you have convinced yourself that your partner doesn’t want you because you’re “fat,” you are probably just feeding yourself a false belief. + ** _5\. Don’t Hide_** +Women often try to hide their bodies as they begin to change, but this is a mistake. Most men will be fascinated by the changes, and will love to watch them over time. Try to include your partner in your body’s changes—the darkening nipples, the enlarging breasts (some men love this part!), the growing tummy bulge. Let him feel the baby move inside of you—this can be one of the most amazing, intimate moments in the world to share together. + ** _6\. Dating Again_** +If this is your first baby, life is going to change considerably after your little bundle of joy arrives. Now is the time to really take advantage of your last few months of being just the two of you. Start “dating” each other again—or take weekend trips away a few times, if you can. The second trimester is the best time to do this, because of increased sexual energy, and the fact that the belly hasn’t gotten too big, yet. Make an effort to really connect and spend some romantic time together during the pregnancy. + ** _7\. “Gift” not “Service”_** +Sometimes women really lose their desire to have sex during pregnancy, especially during the first few months, and in the last few weeks. Sex isn’t an obligation or duty, and most men don’t like to be “serviced” as if it is. If you are truly feeling ill, there is no reason to have sex—but if it’s just a laissez-faire kind of thing, where you’re feeling listless or tired, give it a go anyway. You will often find that acting sexy, again, makes you start to feel sexy. Take advantage of the “up” times to gift your partner with your sexuality, rather than feeling it is a duty or an obligation. + **Alternative Sexual Positions** +Comfort should come first. If she’s not comfortable, you should stop and try something else. It may require a position change, or some other small adjustment. Again, communication is always key. Women shouldn’t be afraid to tell their partner’s when they’re feeling uncomfortable. + ** _Missionary Position_** +This position still works, if you use pillows! It’s amazing what a pillow or two can do! Try experimenting with raising her hips with a cushion under them. This keeps the tummy tilted away from him. Also, he can kneel between her legs, instead of being directly over her. This also works well with a few pillows under her hips. It reduces clitoral stimulation, but leaves him free stimulate her there with his hand. This position also works well if a woman can bring her bottom to the edge of the bed (or couch or chair) and he can stand or kneel, depending on the height of the furniture. You should also know that laying flat on your back in late pregnancy can sometimes make a woman dizzy, because the uterus presses on a main artery along the spine. If this happens, just change positions. + ** _Woman on Top_** +This one is a great position, because she has control of the amount of penetration, and sitting up on him leaves lots of room for her tummy. She can also turn around to face his feet, if their bellies get in each other’s way (sometimes dads put on “sympathetic weight” during pregnancy!) She can also try squatting over him, but towards the end of pregnancy, this requires more balance than she may have, and he may have to help, but it does provide lots of room for him to stimulate her clitoris. + ** _Side-Lying_** +This works better if the man is behind her, kind of spooning and entering her that way. She can reach down and stimulate her clitoris. Facing each other is more difficult, but it can be done, in a kind of “scissoring” posture. If you like this position, just keep experimenting until you get it right for both of you. + ** _Doggie-Style_** +This is a great third-trimester position. You can put a pillow under her tummy for support. If deep penetration is a problem, have her press her shoulders to the bed while she’s on her knees, so she can reach under and wrap her thumb and forefinger around the base of his penis, to keep him from going in too far. She can have more control this way, and he doesn’t have to gauge whether or not he’s hurting her. You can try this position standing as well, just make sure you have a sturdy object for her to hang onto. + **Other Ideas** +If you are one of those couples who has been told “no intercourse”—or you’re just finding it too difficult, no matter what position you try—there are alternatives! +Mutual masturbation is fun, especially if you talk to each other throughout. Maybe this is a good time to share some hot fantasies! This may also be a good time to invest in a vibrator if you don’t have one already. This can help, whatever positions you decide to be in, for manual stimulation of the clitoris. +If she’s been advised not to have an orgasm, then oral sex for him, or a hand job, are the best ways for you to probably go, or he can stimulate himself while she whispers into his ear. If you are woman whose doctor has said orgasm is ok, just no penetration, then while you may not be able to do the traditional “69” position, you can do a modified version. The woman gets up on her hands and knees, and faces his genitals, just as she would for a 69 position, but instead of climbing onto him, she moves as close as she can, her knee against his shoulder. He can manually stimulate her clitoris from this position while she gives him oral. Oral sex should be fine right up until the end, and it’s something you can both enjoy. +Anal sex is something you probably won’t read about in most “sex and pregnancy” articles, but this is Literotica, and statistically speaking, there are probably more people here who have tried it than not. If anal sex was already part of your repertoire, you can continue doing this. The only issues are, as always, never go from anal to vaginal penetration, to avoid infection. You need to be even more vigilant during pregnancy about this rule. + **Sex After Birth** +So you’ve made it through the pregnancy, and now you know what they meant when they said that life after baby is just never the same—and that includes sex! It doesn’t mean that your sex life will be worse, just keep in mind that things may be _different_. In fact, some women say they experienced a shift for the better in their sex lives after baby was born. Here are some tips for postpartum sex that may help you make that adjustment: +\-- Have sex when you’re ready, and not until then. Most health care providers ask that you wait 4-6 weeks postpartum (until bleeding has stopped) usually because of the risk of infection. Some women are ready very quickly (1 week postpartum!) and some need more time (4 months or more). The average time is about seven weeks. +\-- Lubrication! Make sure you and your partner take enough time to get into the mood and that you're feeling moist enough to handle it. If you think you need some more help than what mother nature is providing, be sure to use an over the counter lubricant rather than worry needlessly. If you're still concerned, talk to your practitioner. +\-- Experiment together! Side-lying positions or woman-on-top gives more control over penetration and allows a woman to gauge how much pressure is being put on parts that may still be healing. If you try intercourse and it’s uncomfortable or painful, simply stop and try again another time. There’s always cuddling and petting, oral sex, or mutual masturbation, which are all fun, too! The most important part is being close and feeling good. +\-- Contraception is a must, even for nursing mothers, if you don’t want to get pregnant again quickly. Ask your health care provider’s advice about the best contraception options for you. +\-- Healing from an episiotomy or even a cesarean birth can take a long time, much longer than the standard 4-6 weeks they say to abstain from intercourse, sometimes months, even up to a year. If pain persists after an episiotomy, you can ask your practitioner for an estrogen cream that may help. +\-- There may be several psychological issues that will make you hesitate to take the plunge back into your sex life. Fatigue, poor body image, a feeling that your body and breasts belong to the baby, jealousy (on your partner’s side, of the baby and the time and attention he/she is receiving), fear of conception (another pregnancy), fear that things “won’t be the same” now that he has seen you give birth. Any and all of these may hold you back. The key here is communication. Talk about your feelings with your partner and ask him about his. +Just because you have made the decision to have a child, doesn’t mean that your sex life is shot. Children bring challenges to everything, and that includes sex—but they also bring joy, and the changes you experience in everything will be an adjustment that you can and will make. Sex during or after pregnancy doesn’t have to be a chore or a battle. The key is good communication, a sense of humor, and a great deal of love. Keep connecting with one another throughout the pregnancy, and after the birth, and you will find ways to enjoy sex during pregnancy and beyond!" +345,How To Enjoy Sex Like A Man,punkin_pussy,How To,2006-06-28,2006-06-28,2022-01-04 08:31:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-enjoy-sex-like-a-man,"Hey ladies, it's our turn to have fun.","['Fun For Gals', ""Lady'S Fun"", 'Sex Like A Man']",4.55,"Hey ladies. Have you ever found yourself in this position: Your stud comes to you late at night, and immediately starts to try and turn you on with every move he's got, yet you just aren't in the mood? Unfortunately, a lot of women fear this situation due to a simple fact. Some women just don't enjoy sex as much as men do. I pity them, me being a punk who can't get enough. Well, I'm here to rescue the poor souls of those women (that's right). I'm here to tell all you hot, sexy chicks how to enjoy sex like your man does. +The first step is to not think about you for five seconds. I'll clarify a bit here, since I know that half of you had to reread that sentence and make sure you didn't need glasses. What I mean by this is, do not think about how your body looks. You may think that your boobs aren't big enough or your stomach is bunchy....trust me, your man doesn't notice. Unless you've got a third head growing out of your belly button, your man is only thinking about running his hands all over you and sucking on your nipples (No matter how big they are...okay?). This kind of anxiety that we all have, is very distracting. If you and your stud are trying to have a hot night and you're too busy thinking about your thighs, you're going to miss a lot of the best parts of fucking, and your honey is going to notice. So please, put aside the bull shit for a few minutes, and just RELAX. +Second step, one word: Touch. A lot of us gals think that our job is to get on top and ride. WRONG! (Besides, fuck that! Like we want to do all the work? I don't think so.) It's true that the height of the pleasure usually exists while he's got himself jammed inside of you and you're just kinda writhing around, but I have noticed that guys don't like to just watch your rapidly changing pleasure points. They usually like to feel it too. Don't just sit there arms stretched out, moaning...try grabbing onto his shoulders when he hits that really good spot or even running your hands across his chest. He'll enjoy it, and so will you. That's the whole point of this isn't it? Touch him for god's sake! +Thirdly...and don't make fun of me for saying this: Pretend you're a porn star. Okay, don't tell your man this is what you're acting like because.....ummm, let's just say he'll probably make fun of you. But seriously, think in your mind that you are a fucking awesome sex machine. Think that you have got skills (which you probably do ^_^) that he is gonna roll over and beg for. If you think of yourself as hot and sexy, the confidence you emit WILL make you hot and sexy, and you are going to have an awesome night. I'm not saying that you should watch porn, and do exactly what they do; that seriously lacks imagination. Pretend that you have that one special move that he craves, and your going to love waiting for him to throw his head back and moan. +The fourth step is to slow down. Too many of us are racing to the orgasm. I don't know what is up with some of you ladies, but you make love like you're competing against the clock, trying to beat the record or something. A quick fix can be handled on your own. Tonight (or today), you are with your stud, he doesn't want to come quickly as much as you do. If you take your time, your sex is going to be a lot better and your orgasm is going to be awesome. You can't make anything good in record breaking time, so why try and fuck against the clock? +The fifth and obvious step is to try new things. There are other positions out there than just ""woman on top"" or ""Man on top"". There are a lot of positions out there to try, and you don't have to be a yoga master for all of them. Take me for example. I'm possibly the least flexible girl ever born, yet my boyfriend and I never had ""weak sex"". My favorite position (though tricky to pull off) is when the man pushes me up against the wall while I've got my legs around his waist. Oh my god... (Sorry, just thinking about it makes me lightheaded). That particular position is awesome because when you think about it, your legs are spread apart, you can feel yourself sliding...or falling every time he pulls out, and lastly you're completely and totally wrapped around your man, and every woman loves to do that *wink*. Changing positions during sex may cause a little down time, but when you try it, you'll see it's worth it. +Ladies, that's all the general steps I can give you. I know that every woman is different, but I can almost guarantee that if you try all of these (at least these five steps), you're going to love fucking him as much as he does you. Sex should never be a chore. So don't turn into a house wife. Rock On, and I'll be here all week." +346,How to Escape from Literotica,Kathi,How To,2008-05-14,2008-05-14,2022-01-04 08:31:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-escape-from-literotica,Literotica's seduction techniques.,[''],4.51,"The new format and features that Literotica is developing are becoming addictive to some people. In talking with other readers and authors I found that I was not alone but I am a member of a large and growing group of addicts trapped in a cycle of Literotica stories. +In my case, it all started one morning when I settled down into my routine with my second cup of coffee sitting next to my keyboard along with a second apple tart that I knew I shouldn't eat. I was ready, like many other readers and authors on Literotica, to browse the ""New"" category of Literotica stories published the night before. +Taking alternate sips of my coffee and bites of my tart with one hand, I used the other to mouse through the routine of deleting the overnight collection of junk email that had slipped through my filters. After bringing up my Windows Explorer, I clicked on the ""Literotica-New"" stories in my list of favorites. +Selecting a story from ""Loving Wives,"" one of my favorite categories, I watched as the screen faded and was replaced with the familiar ... ""What the hell is this?"" I wondered aloud when the story screen appeared. +Many other readers have shared the same shock that I felt when the traditional screen did not appear. The difference was alarming and shook me out of my early morning lethargy. It is a less obtrusive display with its muted characters and colors on the right hand side of the screen but it is more pleasing to the eye than the old one. +One must learn to get used to it by taking short peeks at the new format while trying not to fixate on it to the point where the stories become secondary. An advantage to it is it has less possibility of being spotted for what it is by a coworker passing by our cubicle. It is also possible to dim the screen to further reduce the possibility of being detected and branded a pervert by the other perverts in the office. +Literotica very cleverly didn't make any general announcements of their new format and features but they were slipped it in while we slept. Those of us who feel violated at this intrusion can complain to the site under the title of ""I was raped by Literotica."" +The second part of the change that has caused a dramatic impact on my life, and I am sure on many other readers out there, is that little obnoxious box that now appears on the last page of all stories. +It sort of sneaks up on the reader as they are scrolling down towards the end of a story. It makes itself known as a little blip on the bottom right hand corner of the monitor. As the reader scrolls down, the blip grows into a little white box filled with links to ""Similar Stories."" This is where the Mind Control part of Literotica's seductive plan comes into play. +The reader must now decide whether to finish the story being read or stop reading it and check out the new Literotica feature. Most abandon their reading and choose to click on the first entry in the Similar Stories box. They are surprised when, after reading through the suggested story, a new box containing new links is found on the last page. +Now, we have readers in a dilemma! We now have two stories that are unread. Should he or she go back to the first story being read and read through the links in that story's box or should he or she continue on with the new links in the current story? +Don't fall into the trap set by Literotica. Finish reading the current story before clicking on the links. Practice doing this as a routine or you will find yourself embroiled in a maze of stories that has no exit. +Don't think you can outwit the Literotica team and open up all of the links in new tabs in Explorer 7 so you can go back and read through them after completing the one you are reading. That tactic won't work. +You will find yourself on a treadmill, trapped in a squirrel cage of links and tabs. Your computer will run slower and slower until you become frustrated with the delay in opening new links and pages to try and capture the deluge of stories that Literotica is raining down on you. +If you find yourself already caught in the unending cycle, it is not too late. Even though you have been made a victim, there is a way out. Literotica's subterfuge has caught you in its trap but, with help, you can escape. +They are trying to convince you that you cannot bear to miss anything that Literotica's new link boxes are suggesting you read. The problem is that you can't read them fast enough to get through them all. As you open new tabs you will discover that eventually a little red box will appear on your Taskbar informing you that you are reaching the maximum CPU cycles available on your computer. +You will find that it takes many seconds to open a new page and many minutes to open a new link. You will be fighting to keep your head above the pool of stories waiting to drown you. You are trapped. +I have seen reports where some readers have been found sitting between their desktop and their laptop trying to work two mouses (mice?) so they can keep up with the links being displayed by Literotica. You can't win this one folks, technology will triumph unless you do something about it. +Now that you have been warned, here is what you have to do. +First, never open a Literotica story unless you have someone that you can trust in the house with you or someone in your office that is also a secret reader of erotica. Work as a team and use the buddy system. If your buddy hears you whimpering in your cubicle or in the den, he or she can immediately come to your aid. +You must caution your buddy not to glance at the screen or screens but to immediately perform the maneuvers necessary to break the vicious cycle. There are anecdotal stories of buddy's who glanced at a monitor and the words ""juicy cunt"" popped up. They were found two or three days later, slumped over their respective keyboards with slobber running out of the corners of their mouths. +Your buddy must not allow you to convince him or her to, ""Take a look at this one,"" or you both will be trapped. It is a good idea for your buddy to wear an iPod headset so he or she can't hear your pleas to join you in reading just one. +Your buddy must be firm in his or her resolve and shut down the computer before Literotica becomes your master!! That is the only way to escape the cycle of link seduction. +The fight against LLO (Literotica Link Obsession) is a lifelong battle. It cannot be won but the villain can be kept at arm's length if we are vigilant. Those who are susceptible to it can be weaned from it by allowing stronger readers to download the new stories and put them in a file to be read offline. The downloader must remember to delete all of the links left in the text before the addict is allowed to access the stories. +You too can be saved from the insane compulsion of LLO but you must be eternally on your guard. Even now, as you read this, your eyes are probably straying to the right-hand bottom corner of your monitor. You are waiting for the top of that seductive little box to appear to suck you into another cycle of deadly compulsion. +Remember, LLO is like any other addiction, clicking on one link is like drinking only one beer or smoking only one cigarette, it can't be done. Don't do it! +Good luck!" +347,How to Ethically Compete: Survivor,Zrnko_Pisku,How To,2013-01-01,2013-01-01,2022-01-04 08:31:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-ethically-compete-survivor,How to ethically compete in Survivor.,['Contests'],4.67,"As the year closes the air is filled with jingling bells, Christmas music and the incessant drone of whining. Much like the commercial where after losing a video game on his phone a competitor says, ""I like to win,"" to which an older lady sitting nearby replies, ""You like to whine,"" the Survivor Forum is filled with whining. Echoing through the great halls of Literotica you hear the words, ""Sneaky,"" and ""Unethical,"" as if some grand misdeed is afoot. +Of course the whiners do concede the so called ""sneaky"" or ""unethical"" behavior is completely legal, yet they go on with the whining as if there exists some odd subset of the rules that apparently they get to define. You see, there are several competitors who apparently believe that whoever is leading the contest in June, or September or even November should be the winner and that everyone else should simply concede. To support themselves in this belief these competitors hit the Contest Forum with declarations of sneaky behavior, unfounded claims of outright cheating and elaborate fairy tales of evil past winners. +In response to the recent, almost tear jerking onslaught of whining, I wanted to help competitors, especially the new competitors facing this propaganda for the first time, to keep from falling for the strategies I describe above. Yes, the complaints, falsehoods, and moaning are simply just another strategy in what is at its core a simple competition. To accomplish this I will outline some recommendations, outlooks and strategies on how to ethically and effectively compete in Survivor at Literotica. +Survivor is simply a competition where points are awarded for stories written and posted on Literotica within the time period described by the rules (basically one calendar year). To compete a contestant must, before the October 31st deadline, indicate they wish to take part in the contest that year and by a specific cutoff date defined in the rules (shortly after the start of the new year) complete and post their scorecard. It is as simple as that to compete in Survivor. +Of course if you want a chance at winning some of the prizes or even winning the competition you will need to familiarize yourself with the intricate, often confusing rules and scoring system. Because the basic premise of Literotica's Survivor Competition is to encourage writing a lot of stories in a lot of different categories and to encourage writers to enter stories in the special contests the scoring system has been designed support that goal. +First of all, if you want to have a hope of winning Survivor you must enter all of the six Literotica special contests. Since the establishment of the current scoring system no one has won Survivor without participating in all the special contests. This is because of the amount of points available here, you get five points for simply entering a contest (the most points you can earn for submitting any single story) and if you submit stories in all six contests you earn an additional thirty point bonus. That is sixty points for writing only six stories. +Secondly, you will want to write in as many different categories as possible. Once again this is because of the scoring where you will earn three points (six points for the Novel and Novella category) for your first submission in each different category. Also you can earn bonus points for writing in many different categories (5 addition points for 10 different categories, 10 additional points for 20 different categories, 15 additional points for 30 different categories and 30 additional points for all 35 categories). That is another sixty points in bonuses for writing in every category, all in addition to the points you earn for each story. +If there are categories you may have difficulty, for whatever reason, writing in you can claim immunity but this requires a bit of luck to obtain the immunity. While the immunity may help you achieve those important bonus points be aware that the rules here are complex so read up and if you have questions ask questions on the Forum. Make note that for each immunity you claim you must fill the first tier of another category (three submissions) or the immunity will not count. Also, make sure you are aware that there is only a short period of time after you win the immunity to claim it. +The stories you write must fit within Literotica's guidelines for submission but basically, if the story is accepted by Literotica it is eligible for the contest unless it is submitted as a chapter of a longer work (chapters are allowed in the Novel and Novella and the Chain Story). Additionally, for a story to be eligible for Survivor in the Novel and Novella Category it must be a minimum of 7,500 words (the scoring is increased to 6 points for the first story and two points for each subsequent story posted for this category). Additionally, while stories shorter than 750 words can be submitted for the Text with Audio category they must be at least 750 words for the text portion and the audio must present at least all the words in the text. +Now, you might hear (or read) the whining about story length. When you do, simply ignore it. The length of a story is simply what the author determines is needed to tell the story. Now Literotica requires a story to be 750 words before it will accept the submission (no limit on poetry) so you will need at least that to enter the story in Survivor, but beyond that it is up to you (and only you) to determine what it takes to tell your story. If you have the skill and expertise to tell your story in 750 words then do it. Don't let others try and convince you it is unethical or cheating to concisely present your work. Those who do that are simply using a strategy to undermine you in competing. +Sandbagging is a term you may read in the Survivor Forum. It is used to describe either the act of delaying the submission of stories until the last minute or also to describe not entering your submissions on the scorecard immediately after they are published. It is intended to be a derisive term as if there is something inherently wrong in doing this. Once again, the rules are clear: stories must be submitted and accepted during the time period outlined and the scorecard must be completed and posted before the deadline prescribed by the rules. +Ethically, if you choose to feverously write forty stories on the last day of the contest and they are submitted and published on time you have accomplished something wonderful. Once again, IGNORE anyone who will tell you otherwise. They may call it sandbagging and infer you are cheating but you must recognize they are simply trying to convince you not to do this so they can hold on to their lead. +With regard to the scorecards it is simply a personal choice, nothing more. Some people will use the scorecard as an incentive and by updating it as they post each new story they can drive themselves to continue. Seeing some other scores in comparison to their scores can also be an excellent motivator, however if you feel that you can better compete by not updating your scorecard you don't need to. The rules are very clear. +Actually, in spite of what the whiners say about hiding scores being sneaky behavior, any writer's score can easily be determined (as long as you aren't too lazy) by looking at the author's page on Literotica which lists every story published by them. There was even a ""How To"" article submitted either last year or the year before on how to easily and quickly calculate a competitor's score. So even if someone wanted to be sneaky about their score it would be very difficult (not impossible) to do so. +There are many more rules, strategies and methods to the game of Survivor that I have not touched upon here. I leave it up to you to read, understand and follow the rules in a manner that best supports your writing and competition. Hopefully the above information will help you avoid falling into some of the traps and strategies the whiners will subject you to as you compete." +348,How to Find Mr. Right Now,lindiana,How To,2006-06-01,2006-06-01,2022-01-04 08:31:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-find-mr-right-now,It's a virtual world: come swing from a cyber star.,"['Cyber', 'Online', 'Relationship Advice', 'Self-Help']",4.25,"There you are, staring in the mirror and wondering what went wrong. All your girlfriends are married, some for the second time, and have at least 2.5 kids. And here you are, still single in a married world. Why has the world done this to you? And better yet, how can you change it? +In today's virtual world, it isn't easy to find the right match. Everyone is in a hurry. Certainly, we act like we are responsible. We pay our bills and give to Katrina Relief. We eat at McDonald's but we only order the salads. We get our medical check ups regularly but then that is why God gave us medical insurance. But for some of us, somewhere on the road of life we hit a big fat Detour sign that lead us to All Aloneville. +No, it is not impossible to meet a great guy. Admittedly, most of them are now on the internet downloading porn and chatting with girls with improbable names like Chantilly Lace and Summer Breeze. These girls always have these stunning photos with long blonde air billowing behind them and these perfectly round and exceptionally large breasts, always bared. How can we, the average female, compete with these online goddesses? +It's very simple really. Pretend you are one. +1.) Make up a name that sounds like you are probably horny 90% of the time and undoubtedly totally in to giving head. Pearl Drops might work if the guy isn't too old and it reminds him of the teeth cleaner of the same name. Just remember that the name is the first step into creating the illusion. Think it over very carefully. +2.) Buy a Thesaurus. If you want to sound like a slut, you need to speak like one. Only a thesaurus can show you one hundred new and exciting ways to say ""I want to suck your cock, big boy."" +3.) Lie about your looks. It is very unlikely anyone cares what you really look like. The guys you meet online want to think you are a Playboy Centerfold with absolutely nothing to do but talk dirty to him. Make him believe the mystery. +4.) Lie about your age too. They want us all to be 23. If we were 23 years old, hot, big breasted and blonde, what the fuck would be doing online talking to them? +5.) Never give out your real name or location. You do not want the guy showing up at your work looking for Miss December 2002 and finding you. +6.) Remember if you are lying, so is he. How many men are there really out there with 9"" or more? And unmarried at that, sometimes still living at home with mom and just happen to have a webcam set up so they can show you Mr. Woody. +7.) If at first you don't succeed, try and try again. There are plenty of chat sites online. Eventually you will find one that fits your personality. There are ones for the meek and mild virginal types all the way up to hardcore BDSM ones (my favorite haunts) . Find what you like and stick with it. +8.) Admittedly, a great number of men online are nerds in real life. So? You are alone and desperate. Do not forget your goal. +9.) When things start to feel right, you might be attempted to tell the truth. Make him go first. +10.) Webcams are fun but eventually he will ask for a face shot. +11.) Talking dirty is much easier when you are typing it and not actually saying it. You do not giggle as much when you type. And you also have the ability to use the backspace key rapidly to keep yourself from saying something you will regret. The backspace key is our friend. +12.) Never ask him about his marital status. He will not be honest. Of course, sometimes it is better to ask up front. I have had men advise me six months down that road that oh yeah, they forgot to mention they were married. That is a pretty large sin of omission, guys. +13.) If you keep it all online, it isn't real. It is virtual, baby. Nothing online is real. It is just a bunch of words flying around in cyberspace and landing unsuspectingly on some person's doorstep. I have seen people have nervous breakdowns over an IM. It is not worth losing sleep over, people. Real life is serious. Virtual life is not. +14.) Cyber sex can be damn good fun and not quite as intimidating as first time sex in the real world relationships. And it is also a great way to ease tension while waiting for Mr. Right to find you. +15.) There is no such thing as a Knight on a White Horse. Get over the fantasy and move on to the virtual. I have room on my keypad. My name is Honey Gold, I'm 23 and my measurements are 36x24x36....see you in cyber space!" +349,How to Find Peace Within,dirtyjoe69,How To,2006-12-25,2006-12-25,2022-01-04 08:31:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-find-peace-within,Helpful hints to get you out of the blues.,"['Depression', 'Help']",4.64,"Do you find yourself struggling just to make it through each long tiring day? Do you find that you fly off the handle for no apparent reason? Are bills wearing you down to the ground and you feel trapped in a world with no way out? +If any of these things apply to you then you might want to read the rest of this how to, and see if my ideas can help you and get you feeling better and on the right track. +The first and most important thing to do is breathe. Yep that is right, a simple little thing we take for granted but approach it a little differently. Take deep cleansing breaths. Listen to your breathing and find your heartbeat. If you are about to go off on somebody take a second and breathe. If you hear your heart racing in your chest if you take a few deep breaths you will notice your heart will slow down. This will relieve some of the tension and it will also give you time to clear your head before you do or say something that you might regret. +Next, don't sweat the small stuff. If someone cuts you off while you are driving don't freak out. Maybe your kid spilt milk, no need to get angry. Little things like these don't need to be taken out of context. Just let them slide and not eat you up inside. If you sweat the small stuff your pressure increases causing bigger obstacles to become out of reach for you. If you go to step one when something little happens then you will find yourself much more at ease. The more things you let get at you the more run down you become. +If you have the money treat yourself to something nice and relaxing. Perhaps you like the movies. However if you do go to the movies make it a light hearted contest. Maybe a day at the spa where you can be pampered would be good for you. Who couldn't go for a nice relaxing massage? I know I love them. +If you don't have a lot of money may I suggest a nice walk on the beach or at your nearest park? Suck up the nature and get away from all the hustle and bustle of the busy city. +Find a hobby for yourself. Do something you like that can take your mind off of everything that is bugging you. Painting, scrap booking, photography, golf, carpentry, and collecting are just some of the many hobbies that can take your mind and soul to a better place. +If you are a religious person go to your place of worship and pray. You can use your religion to keep a strong base. Perhaps counseling with Pastor, Minister or Rabbi could help you through your tough times. +Go for a drive. I know driving itself can be pressure packed but if you drive for the love of driving and not because you are in a hurry to get somewhere you will find it much more enjoyable. Hit the open road and be that geek who has the stereo cranked up and sings along at the top of their lungs. +Turn the lights down in the house, light some candles and turn on some nice soft music. You might love heavy metal but the aggressive beats will only get your heart pumping faster. Just sit back and listen to the music and take in the soft mood you have created for yourself. +A nice hot bath with bubbles of course is always a nice way to escape. A whole ad campaign was based on this. Do you remember ""Calgon take me away!?"" Just lie in the tub and soak in the wonderful peacefulness of the moment. +Last but not least talk to someone. If no one knows what you are going through then no one can help you. Don't try to take on the world yourself. So the next time someone asks you what is wrong, vent about what is really bothering you. It works magic to get stuff off your chest that has been eating you from the inside out. The longer you keep in bad stuff the longer you will feel bad. +Remember stress is a killer...literally. It causes many deaths a year, don't be one of them. +I almost forgot, if you have kids give them a hug. You wouldn't believe how therapeutic it can be realizing what is important in your life and your kids should be the most important. +Anyway I am not a doctor, I am just a regular guy who has been down and found ways to get back up.

Flying international is never that easy, as I know. In fact, right now I'm sitting in the terminal of my regional airport waiting to board my delayed flight to Newark Liberty International to then board my flight to France. So I thought, ""what the hell – I'll write something."" In this little article, I plan to give you the skinny on what will happen in hopes of minimizing the headache._ +To start off, let me say this is aimed at US citizens flying out of the US to another country, though it might be helpful for anyone flying international, in my opinion. And let me add that I am only drawing from my experiences. I have not flown every airline to every international destination, so there may be things I leave out because I just don't know. If you read something incorrect or have something to add, please contact me. As a traveler, I always like to know everything I can. Plus I can update the article too. +As for my qualifications, I attend college outside the US so in the past 4 years I have made over a dozen trips back and forth, so I consider myself an experienced flyer. I have divided this article into sections so you can scroll down and find something quickly if you just need information on one particular thing. +1\. Getting Documentation: +Now before you fly the most important thing is to make sure you have the proper documentation. For US citizens vacationing in a foreign country this is just a passport provided you are staying less than 90 days. Any more and, depending on the country, you may need a tourist visa. Likewise, if you are studying you will need a student visa. +a.) Visas: +BEWARE – getting it sounds easy, but depending on the country, it can be a major hassle. To start you will have to get it from a consulate or embassy. Immediately you need to go to the embassy website to find out where. Then go to the visa section to see what documentation you will need, processing time, and when you can apply for it. +I cannot stress how important it is to have everything they say to have and do exactly what they say to do, no matter how trivial it may seem. They control the process and they can deny you one. Make sure you allow for processing time. In fact, I would recommend allotting twice as much time as they say. +If the time comes and goes and you don't hear from them, contact them immediately. If you application couldn't be processed or they already contacted you, they won't always follow up. I cannot stress how important this is. You have to have this to study or travel. +2\. Packing: +If you don't need it, don't bring it. +Each airline has limits on the number of bags and their weight. For example, Continental allows 2 checked bags per person up to 50 pounds (23 kilos). After 50 pounds, you have to pay $25.00 per bag extra. The cut off is 75 pounds (34 kilos). If your bag is over this, they will make you open it up and take stuff out. You can move it to another bag, but if you have no other bag and no room anywhere for it, they will make you throw stuff away. I've seen it happen. +Make sure you weigh your bags before you leave especially if you are a student traveling with books. They weigh more than you think. I found out through this process that my 48-pocket DVD case weighed over 2 pounds (which totally shocked me). And don't think that if you can lift it, it must be okay. I did that one and found out at the airport that apparently I can lift 80 pounds. +The easiest way to weigh them is to weigh yourself, then pick up the bag, weigh yourself, and subtract. If you can't do this, most airports have a large scale you can use once you get there. +Also, make sure you allow for the stuff you will get over there. Pack an empty bag or leave room. Also, due to security issues, you are not allowed to have locks on your bags. If you have them, they will ask you to take them off or when your bag gets checked, they'll be cut off. This is so TSA people can check your bags for, you know, bombs and such. +b.) Carry-On: +Again, if you don't need it, don't bring it. Remember you're going to have to lug this around for up to 24 hours. The lighter it is the better. I usually only carry my laptop, passport, ticket, wallet, and cell phone. That's really all I ever need. (I would recommend always carrying your laptop in your carry on since often checked bags are thrown around a lot.) +Do not leave your bags unattended. If you do, you run the risk of them being blown up by the security people. I've seen it happen. They push people back and bang! Right there where they stand. Always keep your bags with you. +3\. The Day Before: +In my experience, the most stressful part of flying is the day before. Make sure you plan to leave that day to packing and other trip related things (unless you're already packed). The first thing you need to do is go photocopy your passport and get an extra set of passport photos. If your passport is lost or stolen, this will make it much easier to get a replacement and/or travel back to the US. +Go get traveler's checks, if you plan to have these. I would recommend them because if they are lost or stolen they can be replaced, unlike cash. If you plan to use your US credit cards, call or e-mail the company to let them know you're going out of the country. Most credit card companies will put a hold on the card if they see that all of a sudden there are international purchases. You can get money changed at the airport either before you leave or once you get to your destination. I would advise doing it sooner rather than later. The lines to change money at the major international airports are long. We're talking like 30-45 minutes sometimes. +Make a list of things you need to pack. There are so many little things that if you don't, you're liable to forget something. But if you do, don't worry. The two things you must have are your documentation and money (credit card, travelers checks, cash etc). If you have those two things, you're good. Anything else can be replaced or you can go without it. +In my experience, the night before is the worst part of traveling, and contrary to what most would think I would recommend getting only 5 or 6 hours of sleep. Now, let's be honest, if you're a nervous traveler you probably aren't going to get much sleep anyway, so why fight it? Also, if you don't get a lot of sleep the night before it will make it easier to fall asleep on the plane. Don't pull an all-nighter though. You need to be at least partially alert and awake when you're in the airport. +4\. Check-In: +Some (not all) airports have limits on how early you can check in (usually 3-4 hours before the flight). So, if you're one of those people who get there extremely early keep this in mind. However, even with a limit sometimes if they're slow they'll still check you in (which is what happened to me this morning). +Always go to the desk and ask when check in will start for your flight. If you're at a smaller airport, you can just sit and wait and usually there won't be much of a line. If you're at a larger airport, though, get in line ASAP. Whenever I fly out of Charles de Gaulle in Paris, the line for check in starts forming 30 minutes before check-in starts. And by the time it starts, the line is extremely long. +If you're one of those habitually late people, try to fight your impulses. The earlier you get there the better. Airports have a cut off for check-in. Most of the time for an international flight, (even if you're connecting through another US city) it is about an hour before boarding. Of course, if you show up 55 minutes before boarding they'll try to get you there in time. The smaller the airport is, the more lenient this rule is, in my opinion. At Charles de Gaulle airport, this is strictly enforced. At my regional airport, it's flexible. If you're late, the people at the desk will try their best, but remember they can't alter the laws of physics. If you're late, you're late and you might miss your flight. +If you do miss your flight and it's a regional flight (one from a regional airport to an international hub) there will usually be another one. There are around 3-5 of these flights a day depending on the airport and airline. If you miss your international flight, you might be in more trouble. Some airports have 3-5 flights a day to international locations, so you can get the next one. Some only have one, so be careful. It's always better to wait around for 3 hours than to miss your flight. +5\. Security: +Oh boy, where do I start? Okay, first check the TSA website to see what you can and can't bring. The list usually doesn't change, unless something happens. Certain airports have stricter security than others, but generally it shouldn't take you more than an hour to clear the checkpoint (and that's a high estimate). In my experience at both major and medium sized airports it takes around 15-40 minutes. +When going through security you will need to put into a bin (not all in separate bins, except for your laptop; that gets its own): +a.) All liquids in a Ziploc bag +b.) Shoes +c.) Belt +d.) Laptop +e.) Jewelry +f.) Coat and/or scarf +g.) Cell phone +h.) iPod +i.) All other electronics +j.) All other metal items +I advise wearing slip on shoes and not wearing a belt or jewelry to make this quicker. Try to get what you can ready as soon as you can. They tend to want to move it quickly. +DO EXACTLY WHAT THEY SAY +If you don't, even if its just not standing where they say, they will pat you down and go through your stuff (this happened to my mother once). +Don't go to get your things or even try to touch your things until they clear you (which will be after the metal detector). +If you are patted down, don't worry. They're not that bad. Due to medical reasons, I have to get one every time I fly. In the US, they're very politically correct and will offer you a private pat down as well as ask you if you have any sensitive places. This isn't always so with foreign airports. At Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris, they just do it. Its quick and effective, but not very PC. And, of course, the person doing the pat down will be of your gender. +Look out for which checkpoint to go to! In most airports, it doesn't matter. Some, however, like Newark, NJ, have many small checkpoints for a cluster of gates. This is good because the lines are short and it doesn't take very long usually. However, if you go through security then realize your gate is at the other end of the airport, you may have to go through security again, so watch out. (I did this once – not fun.) +6\. At The Gate: +Once you're through security, you're pretty much on the downhill slope. The rest of the trip is just waiting and waiting. +If you're at a large airport, find your gate before you go wander off. Always keep an eye on gate information, etc. Gates do change, more so at larger airports. +7.) The Flight: +Now, if you have one of those small, wheeled suitcases as your carry-on on the regional flight you may have to gate check it. The commuter flights are usually on smaller planes that don't have large overhead bins. So, any large carry-ons have to be gate checked. They give you a tag for your bag, then when you're on the jetway, right before you enter the plane there's a person there who takes it. It is put in with the check bags and when you arrive, you wait on the jetway, they get it, and you can go. It's no big deal. I've had it done many times, but it can be a hassle if you have a close connection. +On the flight itself -- sleep. That's the best thing you can do. If you're flying ahead in time (the US to Europe, Middle East etc) when you land it will be morning/noon, so you need to be rested. You'll always have some jet lag; it's just a question of how much. +On the short, commuter flights you can only expect a snack and drink, so plan to eat before or after the flight. +8\. Connecting: +If you're flying into a larger airport, connecting can be a bitch. Helpful hint: on Continental airlines inside the Continental magazine in the back is a map of their major hubs and I suspect other airlines have this as well. It shows you where security checkpoints are, where trains to their terminals are, and which trains between terminals require you go through security again. Most hubs have a train or bus between terminals that does not require you go through security. The only problem is finding it. The map will show you where it stops, and where all the gates are, so you can make a plan of attack on the plane. (My advice is, when the flight attendant has his/her back turned, tear the map out of the magazine and take it with you. Maps in the terminals aren't always abundant). +If your connection is tight (like under 25 minutes), tell the flight attendant. They can call for one of those carts that zips through their terminal and have it waiting when you land to get you to your gate in time. Or at the very least, they can contact the gate of your connection and tell them you're on the way. +7\. International Flight: +Make sure you are near the gate at all times. International flights usually start boarding 1 hour before departure. First is first class, then parents with small children, and those who need help. Then general boarding starts usually beginning with the back rows and moving forward. Depending on the airline, flight size, and airport, they may or may not really regulate general boarding. On the large, full flights they will and they will not let you board until your row is called. If it's a small, half full flight they may just let you board all at once. +Sometimes on large international flights, the airline will ask that all passengers go to the desk to verify their passports before boarding in order to streamline boarding for everyone. Just go ask if they want you to do that or listen for an announcement. +On this flight, there will usually be a movie or movies and dinner. However, the meal is, in my experience, usually small. So, if you're a big eater, bring some extra food. At the end of the flight sometimes they serve a breakfast meal as well, but again its usually small. +8\. Customs: +During the last 30 minutes of the flight, the attendants will come around to give out any needed forms for customs. This varies from country to country, but usually you'll have to fill something out. +Customs varies from country to country again. Just be calm and go with the flow. As long as you don't have a Ziploc bag full of cocaine shoved up your ass, you have nothing to worry about. And again, do exactly what they say. Not obeying the rules is a sure-fire way to be searched. (And most customs officers at major airports will speak at least some English, so don't worry about the language.) +9\. Getting from the airport +Now I've thought many times, ""When I get there, I'll just take the subway, since it's cheaper."" Nope. When you arrive you will be very, very tired. Plan to take a cab. There will be signs directing you to where you can catch a cab and many major airports even have people there to catch it for you. You just get in line, wait 5 or 10 minutes for your turn, give the guy the address and he does the rest. +A note on jet lag: +The best thing to do for jet lag is to hit the ground running as soon as you arrive. Force yourself to stay up, and then you'll sleep like a baby that night and have your internal clock mostly adjusted by the next day (though not entirely for around 3 days). +And Hooray! You survived. Now you just have to survive the trip back. +10\. The Return Flight: +Plan to take a cab again. It really is the easiest thing. Most cities have shuttles, busses, subways, etc, but a cab is best especially if you have a lot of suitcases. +Overall, the process is pretty much the same as before. Pretty much any flight to or from the US will have English-speaking personnel on the flight and at the gate and check-in, so don't worry about communication. +11\. US Customs: +Once you enter the US, even if you have a connection you have to go through customs. The process goes as follows: +1\. De-board plane +2\. Follow herd of tired passengers to passport control +3\. Go through passport control and follow signs to baggage claim +4\. Get bags +5\. Follow signs and tired passengers to customs check. +6\. Go through customs +7\. Emerge in the US at baggage checkpoint +8\. Check bags if connecting OR if not connecting get the hell out of there. +9\. Go back through security +10\. Go to gate and fly home +Generally those are all the steps involved and you'll have to do them all, sometimes not in that exact order though. Just follow the signs and you'll be fine. It can take as long as an hour and a half, depending on the line at security. I once managed to do all this in 35 minutes, just enough time to make my connection (granted that was at a smaller hub). +The important thing to remember here is that you are in the US. If you miss your flight, you can get another one. If you make your flight, but your bags don't, they'll come soon. +There will be customs forms to fill out too. US citizens will only have one to fill out. BEWARE: On the back, they ask you to list all purchases and their value. Do NOT overestimate the value. If you say you have bought more than $800 of stuff, they will make you pay taxes on it! (Again, this almost happened to me once, but I batted my eyelashes at the guy and he let me slide.) +Well, they're calling my flight, and that's all the pearls of wisdom I have for you on the subject. Again, if you have anything to add to this, contact me. If I get a lot of e-mails with helpful hints, I'll update the article to share the information. +Happy Travels!

There isn't or at least _wasn't_ a How to explaining this shit and for new authors there really should be, especially since many of the authors don't know themselves how to do some of this. +Now some of you are long time readers might be thinking what's the point in having formatting in your stories and if that's you I can only shrug. I mean if I have go and explain the amount of character it adds then helping you might be beyond my power. +I think it's past time we got this moving don't you? So it's time to get this moving a bit more swiftly. So lets pick one thing and start there. +All of these formats must be put between angle brackets which are those alligator things from school that eat the bigger numbers over your comma and period. When you are finished with a format be it bold, italics, centering, underlining or block text you need to end it with a forward slash or virgule. Yeah, most of us have never heard the word virgule and it sounds kinda dirty. + _Italics_. I tend to use this when someone is thinking something but not necessarily saying it, it's also good for when something is supposed to be said _icily_ so it sees a lot more use amongst my female characters when they are being a tad bit bitchy than anything else. Hell I should probably just title it the bitchy font and move on from there though they have other things. If you want to use italics the letter you need to use is an i. It doesn't matter if it's capitalized or not between. + **Bold.** This is another favorite of authors. I tend to use it on the rare occasion that I need to info dump something secret agent style or when someone is shouting and caps lock just won't accurately convey the thunder in their voice. You can of course is it for whatever the hell you want. I sometimes call it the shout or thunder font. The letter for it is b and follow the above with the angle brackets and virgule. +Underlining. I don't find a lot of use for this in stories to be honest. It's intrusive and doesn't seem to portray (to me) a particular mood or anything. If I use it it's usually to give a specific bit of information that's going to be important later or if I'm making a messy scene change. So I might use one like a time location stamp but probably not. +> Blockquoted text. +I never use this at all, and actually had to stop to look up why you would and as a story writer I can only imagine using to for if your character receives a letter and you want to show it completely. Personally I would use italics here but that could be the one of the reasons why I don't have a crap ton of those lovely red H's that tell you you're a great author not a hack. +Finally we have centering and it's ugly. +The way to code it I mean. It's borderline real computer programming for fucks sake. +Centering is a great option for authors because it allows us to set titles and chapter breaks neatly, if you're one of the very few writers who decide to write novels and novellas or even particularly long stories on Lit. Most of us can't be bothered with that either as writers or as readers but still it's nice. +[p align=""center"">Those square brackets should be angle brackets. [/p] +Given the amount of detail there I assume there are other things we can do like right aligning in fact +>Hey it worked! +There are probably more but that's a little past my pay grade unfortunately. +You can use hyperlinks but since you can only use other Lit stories and I've yet to find an etiquette rule for linking to stories that aren't yours it's a bit pointless. Though I have occasionally mused about writing stories where characters are reading other, better stories. Then I realize my readers won't come back and screw that! +I hope this has been helpful, I wish I'd known some of this sooner.

It's also a sexual practice that can provide tremendous sexual pleasure for the participants. The following information is a guide to anal sex for both men and women that should facilitate pleasure and intimacy between partners in a safe way. +To set the stage, I recommend starting with a healthy bowel movement at least two hours prior to trying anal sex. The rectum should actually be devoid of any poo poo. If that is done, you shouldn't have to worry about things getting too terribly messy. I suggest the use of an enema and you can get a premixed formula at the drug store for less than $2.00 or use the good old fashioned kind your grandmother used to give you from the red bag. After that, a shower to clean any trace poo poo away should set the stage. If you have any cuts, hemorrhoids, or anal tears, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT attempt anal sex, not even with a condom. +The key to anal sex is start small and go slow. While I like small butt plugs and vibrators as an introduction, my preference is tongue. It's much softer and pliable and gives a lot more pleasure. It's also more intimate. Depending on the experience of the giving party, they may or may not be comfortable with ""tossing the salad"" or licking someone's ass so again it's a personal call. It's imperative to constantly ask for feedback and give encouragement for both parties. Sex is mostly mental so it's about getting the person relaxed and aroused. Tell him or her how sexy their asshole, how much it turns you on to know that they are giving it to you, sharing it with you, how much pleasure you want to give them, how good it tastes, etc. If it's a guy, jerking him off is essential while licking him, if it's a woman, have her use a vibrator on her clit because she'll know her body better than anyone and can create more arousal. Extreme sexual arousal is the key to great anal sex. +After sufficient licking, about 15 minutes or so, start with a finger. There are actually two actions that will help relax the muscles around the anus that will make anal sex less painful. ""Squeezing"" and ""Pushing"" should be used in tandem to help relax the muscles. Use a lot of lubricant. There's no such thing as too much. The recipient should push out, like they are trying to have a bowel movement. That allows for easier penetration. With the tip of your finger in, then tell them to squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, like they are trying to hold in an urgent movement, which causes the sphincter to get exhausted. After they've done that, go back to stimulating the pussy or dick and just leave the tip of your finger as still as possible. Once they have done that for a few while, tell them to push out again, which should allow your finger to go in without any real effort on your part. Once you are in a little deeper, let them get used to the feeling of your finger in there and then tell them to squeeze for dear life. Each time they squeeze, the anal ring will get weaker and weaker, making it looser. By this time, they should be loving every second of it so you should just keep on with the verbal encouragement. I find dirty talk increase stimulation so try your hand at some explicit language to heat things up. +A couple more rounds of squeezing and pushing and you should have one finger all the way in. Always follow each round of pushing and squeezing with being completely still. The receiver usually has no idea how much finger they have taken so once you are all the way in; just feel around and get comfortable with the way their ass feels. That's excellent to do so you can get an idea of the angle of their ass. Nothing's worse than someone trying to fuck someone in the ass and going in at the wrong angle. Men usually jump out of their skin when your rub their prostate, a little marble sized gland located at the base of the penis inside the anus. At that point, if you've done everything right, they should be begging you to finger fuck them harder. Again, don't be afraid of water-based lubricant, more is better. Silicone-based lubricant is also very good but I have concerns about what elements are introduced into the body. +Whatever lubricant you use, be sure to use it liberally. +After you've gotten up some serious finger fucking, inserting another finger should be a piece of cake. You might have to go a couple more rounds of squeezing and pushing but I'd let the recipient control it at that point so they can drive the ship for a while. It's been my experience that you can get a third finger in and the receiver has no clue how many fingers are in them. I would like to caution you to NOT engage in fisting activities, or insertion of the entire hand into the rectum, because I'm not comfortable with that sort of hazardous practice that could cause serious injury. There are many people that engage in the practice but it seems awfully extreme when there are so many other anal options. +Because I personally don't have a real dick, I have to use toys, so for me, I usually start with a battery operated vibrator first and move on to the dildo. Use the same techniques for the small vibrators. More lube, more pushing, more squeezing. It should go in very easily so the trick is to start out slow with the vibrations and increase the intensity. Position the recipient on their knees with their face down in order to facilitate the best penetration. The dildo/dick comes next and you should basically let the recipient control the pace. Do a lot of touching and stroking and caressing all over their body when you put the head to the asshole and continue to use your pushing and squeezing techniques until the head is in. Once the head is in, DON'T DO A THING until the recipient tells you it's okay to proceed. Here is where the pushing out really comes in handy because with the tiniest bit of pressure they can accommodate the entire thing. +After about four inches of the dick/dildo is in, you are going to hit a little kink in the colon that is like a little bend. For many, that is the spot where they experience the most pleasure. Once the head is past that point, you are on your way to becoming an anal expert. If you've done all that and continued to talk to the person the entire time, you should be ass fucking like a pro. Go slow, get lots of feedback, and enjoy. It's incredible pleasure for both the giver and the receiver. +AND ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS USE A CONDOM! +The information provided is NOT from a medical professional and should be considered opinion. +Please consult a physician or licensed sex therapist for further information." +353,How to Fuck Me,DireLilith,How To,2007-03-07,2007-03-07,2022-01-04 08:31:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-fuck-me-2,This is how you get her off.,['Female Orgasm'],4.14,"I can't tell you how to do it to the next woman you meet. But when it comes to 'how to's' the one I'm going to be best at is how to get ME off! So here it comes, ladies and gents. Take notes! +I'm your girl. Not your wife, and not yet your lover. But I'm yours, no matter what title or position you've given me or that the world sees. +You've earned your way into my life by putting in the hours. When I talk, you really look like you're listening. And even better than that, you respond intelligently and can repeat back to me what I've just said. That elevates you very quickly in my book of respect. You astound and amaze me with what we have in common. Our interests, our quirks. What we don't agree on, you quietly accept with a smile. I love that. We can talk forever without arguing or feeling like we're spending crucial hours defending our principles and morals. I don't want to fight or debate with you, not all the time. I just want to get to know you, and give you the honest chance to get to know me. Check another one off for you because you're doing this part so well! +You've wined and dined me. A few flowers here, a pretty shirt on your credit card over there, and dinner at the restaurant of my choice but on your bill. That's pretty nice. When I want to stand up for myself and be your equal, I will. But for now, we're on the proving grounds. And I need to see that you're willing to put out for me...long before I put out for you! +I don't have to ask you for space, you don't invade my privacy. But whenever I need you, you aren't farther away than a phone call. And maybe you can't always come rushing to my rescue when some small drama happens. That's alright, as long as I can hear your voice during those crucial few minutes when something in this crazy world has me about to falter. I've learned that I don't require a lot. I'm not high maintenance like so many would-be lovers turned jerks have said. I require quality time, not quantity time. It's not about how much time you give me. It's about being available when I have time to give to you! Our schedules, our free time, our extra activities -- these things seem to match up. It makes me appreciate you more, makes it easier for me to see you as a real part of my life rather than just a one time crush destined to peter out. +So tonight, it might be the night. We've gone to a movie. I let you choose this one because you've really been great to me. Besides, we have similar tastes. No movie you choose is going to offend me. I might giggle. But with you next to me through the movie, I'll watch anything. I'm falling for you hard, you have to see that by now. +We've had dinner. It was quick, but good. You drove us to a market near my house, let me pick out those special gourmet items I always talk about. And you let me beckon you into my house with one finger, and the promise of good tasty things to come. You let me decide if tonight is the night you enter my domain. Smart boy... +The food was the foreplay. And we both know it. We dropped our coats and our shoes by the door, moved into the kitchen and quietly shared in small talk while I whipped up something I knew you'd like. Now we've finished eating and I've giggled over the few beers we shared. The music on the stereo is something we both like, heavy with a slow beat that vibrates my bones. Now this is where the lessons begin. +Come to me, because even if you can't see it in the way I'm swaying, I'm begging you to hear me calling. Stand up straight, but don't loom over me. Just melt against me. Not too close. I want to see your face. And don't try to be some pop superstar. I just need you to move with me. Or for you to stand rhythmically, swaying almost imperceptibly while I brush against you. +I'm moving against you, grinding my hips against yours, rubbing your arms, your ribs, your shoulders. I know you want to just throw me down and have at it right now. +Don't. No matter what you think you're here for, you aren't here to force me or overwhelm me. +Let me come to you. Let me guide you. +My couch is nearby. I'm not ready to have you in my bed yet. You're going to have to be good if you're going to pull this one off and if you've only ever made love in a bed. I'm ready to move to the couch now. You'll need to be ready to follow. +I haven't touched you much. But by now, you've got to be hard. Do what it takes to set that up yourself. If you're one of those people that needs me to touch them physically, skin on skin, before you can be aroused...we're going to have a problem. As a strong woman, I need to believe you're in a constant state of preparedness. I need to believe that the very thought of being near me, here in my home, excites you to the point of erection. Don't wait for me to slide my hand down your pants like a dance floor slut. It won't happen -- not until we're ready for role-play and I choose to become YOUR whore. +Maybe you need to think of what's coming next to get aroused. Maybe you have to fantasize I'm someone else, some super starlet or some porn mag floozie. I don't care. I don't read minds. Do what it takes. Just be hard. Because when we get to that couch I'm leading you to, I'll be checking. Trust me on this. +We're there now. I've tugged on your belt a little. This is only to get you to be in the same position I am, on my knees on the couch cushions. Me tugging on your belt was not THE SIGN, the one that says, dude get naked now. When that time comes, IF that time comes, I'll let you know. Right now, pretend innocence. Have a questioning look on your face, along with that dazzling smile. Just let me pretend I'm doing the seducing, and join me on the couch, on your knees. +It's time. I'm running my hands down your chest while I lean in to kiss you. Kissing is something we should have down pat by now. I'm thinking we would have kissed many a time. I'd have given you much opportunity to show me that you know what to do with a kiss, with lips pressed against yours. I don't need to focus on that right now. Your lips against mine excite me, have no doubt. But for now, this kiss is a distraction. It's me pretending you're too distracted to notice my hands are going lower...lower....and lower still. +Good boy. You listened. And I can tell that your cock is rock hard under your pants. I'm not going to linger there. It was just a check, me testing to see if you're really into this. Into me. And you are. You pass. We will continue. +This is the part where I play coy now. This is where I pull away from the kiss and make eye contact, where I imagine and pretend things of my own. This is the part in the dance where I tell myself, I can tell what he's thinking about by looking in his eyes. Oh I know what you're thinking about. And your eyes didn't tell me a damned thing. Your cock, hard in your pants, is what I am thinking about. And it's telling me you're into me and really willing to let this play out, on MY behalf. +So we continue. +I lay back now in the corner of my couch. I might throw one arm above my head. This is to make me look vulnerable, exhausted, faint of breath, dizzy. Anything to make you want to jump on me, throw your massive body against mine and start taking me hard and heavy. +Don't do it. Don't fall for the ploy. If you did, I might have let you fuck me. But I don't think I'd ask you back. My trust in you would have been destroyed, even if we continued to see each other. You'd be just a fuck to me. And if that's what you wanted, then you shouldn't have read my little instruction story here. It's not what you need. This story is to tell you how to get ME off. Not how to get me naked so YOU can get off. If you jump me now, you might get your dick inside me. But the chances are strong that it will be the one and only time you do. +You've resisted the urge. Good boy. +Now I'm going to look at you. And my eyes should show you how hungry I am for you. My teeth might come out and bite at my bottom lip. I might run my hand suggestively along my chest. Your job right now? Sit there, on your knees, and smile. Enjoy the show I'm giving you. Watch for the body parts I touch -- take notes! I'll want you to know to touch them later, just like I'm touching them now. Am I rubbing my thighs together? That's because my clitoris is swelling. Am I playing with my breast flesh? That's because I like having my whole breast stroked. Am I teasing my nipples through my shirt with the barest bit of my fingertips? That's a sign, sweet one. I like my nipples played with. And if my hand is wandering down to my abdomen, to my waist? Chances are good I'm hoping for some oral action. Take notes. There's a test later, count on it. +I'm reaching up to touch at you now. And now you're finally able to come to me. I'm hoping you took note of everything I did up to now. Because now, we're going to kiss. And I want to know that you want me. This kiss isn't the surreptitious kiss from earlier. This one has expectation in it. Is your mouth wet? Are you drooling for me, baby? This is where you show me, by kissing my lips, my neck, my chin, my jaw line, all done very softly. +Notes for this kiss: don't pant now, you'll sound like a dog, especially if you're panting in my ear; don't try to whisper things to me unless you're a professional writer because you just won't know what to say and if you say something stupid or macho, I'll be kicking your ass out the door; don't bite or nip at my ear because we're still in the set-up stage and that comes later, I won't be paying enough attention right now. +Now you need to look at me. Look me right in the eye. Right here. And tell me you want me. Don't be shy, don't be afraid to say it. And don't muck around with paperback novel or dime store types of lines like, oh girl you're so fine that I gotta have you right now, or things like can I fuck you now? Just say three words -- I want you. Because believe me, if I've let you get this far, I want you too! There's still a large opportunity for you to screw this up and for me to cancel this whole thing and ask you to leave. But by now, if that happens, I'll be really disappointed. Tell me you want me. And I'll tell you I want you too. I might ask how much you want me. It's just a test, and you don't need to create complicated metaphors or analogies to pass it. Leave that for your wedding night. I'm just a girl and just need to know you really are into everything I am. +Right now, I wouldn't mind if you pressed your cock against my thigh. I wouldn't mind if you looked over my whole body as well. Just don't spend too much time staring at my tits. Sure, they're beautiful. I enjoy them too. But I'm a whole person, not a pussy and ass with boobs. Enjoy all of me and show me with a wandering gaze down the length of my body. I just might arch my back and press those heavy breasts up against you. Just like you're pressing that cock against my thigh. I'm enjoying myself. You're good. +Now I want you to hear me speak. I might make up some excuses on why we can't have sex. Maybe it's my moonflow and I'm too ashamed and horny to tell you to stop. But we really should because our first sex session shouldn't break intimacy barriers. It's just us coming together as one. If this isn't the right time, hopefully I wouldn't have let us get this far. If I did, there must be some reason I'm stopping it now. If I'm objecting and asking you to wait or slow down, just do what I ask. Me telling you that now isn't a good time is not the same as me telling you to pack up and leave. Smile and say, so what WOULD you like to do? And we'll do it. If I say I really need to get to bed, well, I guess you're out in the cold. Something went wrong. If you're lucky, you can earn your way back here again. I'm not other girls. I'm not going to tease you and bring you to this point more than once before going beyond it. You'll have to have faith in that. +Being angry with me right now if I say no would be a bad thing. So let's hope you aren't doing that. And let's pretend I didn't say no. +Good. I want you too, and really badly. +Now you could tear my clothes off, put your dick inside me, and get your rocks off and be home in time to watch the end of the big game on the television. You really could. I'd be disappointed, ashamed I thought more of you than that, and I probably wouldn't want you back. I'm not pathetic, I'm not desperate and at this point, you're replaceable. But then, if you did that, just took me hard right now, you don't care what I think of you and you got what you came for anyway. +The best thing to do right now is make out with me. I'm not going to get into the details of this. I'm hoping that you aren't a virgin and I'm hoping you have some experience with a woman's body. I'm not talking about having sex with a first timer right now. I'm talking about you and me finally hooking up. So spend this time enjoying the sweet taste of my skin, the soft feel of my flesh under your hands, and appreciate the way I rub and grind against you. My hands will wander too. We're enjoying our time together. +Note -- don't make this take too long. I have plans for you. Big plans. And they don't include spending the evening acting like teenagers on the couch. Watch for my signal. It's a tricky one but it's there. It comes when you move your hand lower and rub against my crotch through my clothes. If I pull away, I'm not ready. If I press up against you, I'm ready. So, ask me if I'm ready to go to the bedroom, or say it like this -- can we take this to your bedroom? +By saying it like that, you've given me the chance to say no. You've also acknowledged verbally that it's MY bedroom and MY choice. You've spoken respectfully and made your intentions clear. That's all good, baby. How can I say no? +Don't run ahead of me as we go to the bedroom. Follow me. If I am not holding your hand already, don't reach out and grab it or awkwardly grab at my hair as I walk. If I'm moving fast ahead of you, it's probably because my bedroom's a mess and I have something I want to clean up fast with a quick swipe of my foot before you get inside. If I want to hold your hand, I will. Better yet, when YOU help ME off the couch in a nice gentlemanly manner, I'll fall into your arms and we'll madly kiss again. Let that continue to the bedroom, if I am willing. And I'll lead you there, never fear. +My bedroom. It's my domain. I know where everything is. I walk through this bedroom with my eyes closed while wrapping towels around my hair. I walk through here in the dark if I have to pee in the middle of the night. I know where everything is. +Don't touch anything. Nothing. It's mine. I will probably explain things in my room tomorrow, if I let you stay. Or some other time, when we're just cuddling. Right now, we're about to have sex or something equally engrossing. I don't want to talk about my teddy bears or my portraits on the wall or where I got that particular antique dresser. Just follow me to the bed. +Note -- if you come into my room and immediately get naked, I'm going to think you've got one thing on your mind. And that would be the wrong thing. You're right if this is confusing. It's meant to be. I want to believe at least in my own mind that you are just doing what you can't help but do -- but only what I want you to do. I don't want to think you're following me, staring at my ass going yeah, imma hit that shit tonight! That's not what this is about. It's about me being seduced by you in such a way that it looks like I'm the one in control. Of course I am because I've already taught you exactly everything you need to do, in this instructional story. But I want to pretend, alright? I want to pretend that you're only in my room because I invited you, that you're surprised and delightfully so, that I invited you in. And I want to believe that you come into my room with no expectations, that should I end things at any point you will respect that and stop. Truth or not, it's what I need to believe in order to feel safe, in control and willing to go on. +Wait for me to beckon you to the bed. Maybe I can't keep my hands off of you. Maybe I will be the one breaking the rules. Maybe I will tear your shirt off and unbuckle your pants, throw myself on the bed and pull you on top of me. And that means throw this whole story out the window because you are GOOD and you just hit jackpot! +Chances are, though, that I want to see what you're made of. I want to see how you handle this new pressure. I'm going to slowly slip out of my clothes, and drop there wherever I wish, or fold them and put them away. Are you naked yet? No? Good! You're waiting for me. I might even tease you and ask what you're waiting for. This is a great opportunity for you to act dumbstruck at my raw and naked beauty. Take this time to say something poetic if you're of a poetic nature. Or just whisper softly, 'damn...' -- I'll understand and appreciate anything you say in the positive affirmation of my sexual beauty. +Now I'm beckoning you closer while I lay on the bed. Watch my hands as I watch you get naked. Go slowly, so you can watch me move. Do I hide under the sheets? Then I'm proud of my body but secretly unsure what you think of me -- OR I'm playing coy innocent and really into being seduced. Am I blatantly stroking myself while watching you get undressed? Then I'm saying I'm a dominant female eager to be pleased and telling you that you've got your work cut out for you. This is my room. And I'm the one that's allowed to enter it with expectations. Am I on my knees, helping you to get naked? Then chances are good I think you are so damned hot, your cock so big, I just can't wait to see it. From here, I might even proceed to give you a standing blowjob. Don't ask me to. Don't move my head to your crotch unless you want me to cut your dick off with my teeth. If you get a blowjob right now, it's only if I say so. Don't hope for it. No expectations, remember? +Personally this time, I'm laying on the bed. I hope you're strong. I love it when a man moves over me, using his arms to hold him up and keep his body from laying heavily on me. I love the idea of a man looking down my body, appreciating my curves and dips and valleys and crevices with his eyes. I want you to be imagining all the things you'd like to do to me some day. Today is not that day. But let's just pretend you think it is. Devour me with your eyes. That makes me feel so much more wanted than if you just toss your weight on top of me. +Hold your body up for a very short while, then lean your legs on top of mine, sliding between my thighs. Don't put your dick inside me. That's just rude at this point. Look me in the eyes. No matter what fantasy you had to have in your head to keep your cock hard all this time, it's time to just think about me. Just me. Think about me. I will see this in your eyes, in your hot gaze, in the way you wet your lips and drool while looking at me. And it will make me shiver. It will make me struggle not to writhe underneath you. +You're doing so well. If you're at this stage, you've passed the verbal and physical exams and it's a go! +We're going to kiss now. Let the kisses be soft. Now's the time to nip gently at my ear, and the time to lick that sensitive place on my neck beneath my earlobe. Move a hand over my breast like when we were making out. Remember the notes you took about where I like to be touched? Follow those notes now, baby. Show me you learned my body just by studying me. It's what I've dreamt of, a man who knows me before he gets to know me. +Your job now is to wait for me. You can grind against me with your cock. You can move side to side with your hips, a bit. But don't enter me until I give you the sign. And the sign is? Parted thighs! That's it, that's the big sign telling you to do it to me now, baby, oh yeah oh yeah. Parted thighs! +When I part my thighs, your body should slide naturally between them. By now you should be evened out proportionally. Your head will be above mine because my lovers are usually taller than me, putting their heads higher up on the bed than mine. Your chest might end up near my face if you don't raise up on your hands. If you're super huge, we'll have to do some delicate adjusting because really, this isn't the time for me to lick your nipples. Right now, all I can think about is your cock inside me, so let's not smother me with your hairy or sweaty chest muscles now, okay? +I don't really enjoy when men have to grab their dicks and aim for my hole. Even though it's not truth, it makes me feel like I'm huge or like the guy got lost down there. Like he couldn't put his finger to his nose if asked! I don't like it. So, lift yourself up, make some groans as your cockhead meets and greets my wet pussy, and make some thrusts. +Note -- and this is big -- don't thrust if you feel any kind of resistance. I've had men try fucking my clit. Hate that! I've had men fuck my perineum. What are you thinking? If you feel any kind of resistance, that's not me! By now I'm sopping wet. And I'm not a teenager. Tight or not, I'm going to open for you. There ought to be no resistance. If you're close enough, your cock head will slip in after sliding down the inside of my labia majora, my bigger pussy lips. If I have chubby labia minora or little pussy lips, well they won't give you much resistance either. Everything about me, every part of my privacy, is encouraging you to enter. If you feel resistance, just slip and slide around a little. You will find the right spot. +One more thing to note -- nothing looks sillier than a man with his tongue between his lips, staring at the wall with furrowed brow as he tries to put his pecker in a woman hands free. If you really can't do it, then be gentle and subtle and slide your fingers down. Distract me with a kiss or a bite on the ear. Do try to be a man who can talk, walk and chew bubble gum at the same time. I want to know you're familiar with your penis before you become familiar with me! Put the damned thing inside! I'm going crazy over here! +You're in. Good. Because it feels so good now, baby. Thanks for everything you did to earn this moment. Thank you for being the right kind of man. Thank you for enduring my tests, my foibles, everything required to get us to this point. Believe me, I will pay you back and make it worth your while! +I've had men who entered me -- and came on the spot. Flattering in hindsight but disappointing at the time. Try not to be them. I know, you've kept a hard- on for the last while, waiting for us to get into bed. And you really love the way my tightness feels around you, you can't believe how good it feels. It was worth the wait! But you just want to get off now. I know. +Don't. +Don't just thrust and thrust and get off. That makes you a two stroke Johnny. And that would be disappointing. If you think you'll come too fast in forethought about the night to come, well jerk off before dinner, or at the movie theatre in the bathroom. Wear a cock ring. Whatever it takes. This is about me, and I don't want to have to ask you to go down on me after you've jizzed all over my pussy. And I will do that, to discipline you. So there! +Move slowly at first. Stop to kiss me if it gets to be too much. But find your rhythm. I like rhythm. And I like it if it takes just a little while to get going. I want to enjoy you too. I want to rake my nails down your back. I want to clutch at your ass cheeks. I want to suck your nipples now, lick your neck, bite your shoulders, all in playful intention. +But don't think you're going to impress me. Not now, okay? Not this time. I know you think you're a stud. You even bothered to read this instructional story in the hopes of knowing how to fuck me and proving to me how great you are. This isn't how you did that. The things you had to do to get to this point were the things you had to do to impress me. And if your cock is thrusting inside me? You already did all the impressing you ever needed to do. +Don't come to my house thinking you're going to fuck me all night long, and show me moves I've never seen before. I have a life and I have to get up tomorrow. Or maybe you'll just be doing what every young stud does and making a fool out of yourself with a woman whose way more worldly than you. Don't think if you're older than me that you can show me a thing or two. You can't, and if you think like that, I won't give you the chance. Tonight is about me, my domain, and my worth and value to you. I want to feel how hard you are inside me, feel you spreading my walls. I want to feel you riding the same waves of pleasure as I am. I want to believe you're going to cum at the same time as me, not just fuck me and get off. I don't want to be a notch in your bedpost or belt, another number in your black book. I'm not a booty call. I'm a real girl, the real thing. And if you did all the work required to get up to this point, to be feeling the golden pleasure of my sex wrapped around your cock...don't ruin it by pretending you know the kama sutra. Don't try to be my teacher, or the last lover I will ever need. +Why? +Because right now, I want to pretend you are totally into me. Wrapped up in the loving body beneath you. Your thoughts wound up in the flesh and the sensations only I am giving you. Maybe you're one of those wise guys that has to fantasize about someone else. Go ahead, I don't care, just NEVER tell me unless we get married. Seriously. Don't admit it to me, ever, unless we're married and I beg you to admit what I already know. You do what it takes to get hard, and to stay that way until you get me off. Let me feel like I'm the only woman you have ever known. Ever. The only woman who has ever made you feel this good. +Again, why? +I hate it when men say, oh this one time I did it this way, so let's try that! Um, so you enjoyed sex in this particular position, room or place with another girl. And you want ME to be her now? K, no...bye! Just that simple. I will not be with a man who sees me as yet another girl. I must be THE ONLY GIRL, especially at this exact moment. We were virgins before we got together, before our bodies joined in wet unison on this bed. I don't want to think about you ever having anyone else, never mind enjoying what you did with them. We can explore those kinds of things when we've got a full strong commitment between us. For now? Just let me revel in being the goddess in your eyes that you're making me feel like, let me believe I'm your princess, your queen, the only woman your cock has ever known. Oh so good, baby! +You're moving faster now. I'm excited. I can feel you entering the very depths of me. With every thrust, you're seeking and finding a new part of my soul. That's what sex is like for me, when it's good. Some ethereal immaterial part of me feels exposed with every deep thrust. It feels like the hair, scalp and bone are ripped from my brain and neurons are exposed to the same sweet kisses you were giving me. My whole world is suddenly alive and welcoming, like Heaven's gates. And I just want to ride you right up to those gates and burst through. I don't know what it's like for other women. I can only tell you where you're taking me. And this is where. +Keep going. I hate it when a man stops to brush hair out of his face, or mine, or wipe at his sweaty brow. Deal with it. Whatever it is, use your martial arts training, your skills, your full concentration to ignore it for later. Right now, focus on me, on us. And fuck me rhythmically, slowly speeding up. +Don't talk dirty to me. I'm not your whore, your bitch, your slut. I don't want you to call my orifices nasty names .We can discuss options like that later, when I ask you back over or go to your house to play. Tonight though, just make love to me. +You can call out my name. Make sure it's MINE though. +You can tell me how good it feels, as long as you don't compare me to nasty ho's in a porn mag. And don't call it ""shit"" even if you mean it in the good way. When your dick is inside my body, I do not want to be referred to as shit. Golden, cream, sugar...these words please me. Find ways to use them, but if you can't, just fuck me. I'm going to moan. I'm going to cry out too. +And here's a good note -- I will tell you when I'm going to cum. +Yes that's right. You're still being tested. Will you be so lost in your own climb to ecstatic heights that you don't hear me saying I'm about to cum? I hope not. Because when I cum, then you cum. In that order, baby. You keep that dick hard inside me, you work MY body, until I get off. This is after all, the story of how to get ME off...not you! +I'm cumming. I'm thrashing around on the bed. Careful now. I DO bite. I do claw. I bite, I claw, I pinch, I scrape, I kick, I knock your head with mine if you get too close. Keep fucking me, don't stop now, baby. Just because I look like I'm in my death throes doesn't mean I'm having a seizure. This is what you did to me, and it feels so good. Me losing control like this is a GOOD thing. It means you are so good at what you do that I just can't help myself. I can't control my instincts and the wild tigress inside me is coming out, tearing her way to the surface of my world and fighting tooth and nail for release. This is me in the midst of passion. Don't be surprised if you wake up tomorrow and find some new bruises and scratches. It's a good thing. Take it as a badge of honor, a sign that you're really good. This is better than just managing to make me cum. You've surpassed your betters now, baby. How many men say they make their women cum? Okay but how many can actually show you marks? You've entered a new club, the lust marks club. Enjoy it, and enjoy me. +I'm lost in my ecstasy. No matter what you do right now, I'm not sure I'm responsible for paying attention to it. I am just laying here, my whole body electric and alive. Think you're done doing what you need to do? Think again. +Baby I need you to cum. And I need you to get off without me doing anything special. You can hold me close now, if you dare. Or stay in the same position above me. Keep fucking me. Move sideways, whatever you need, but don't ask me to change positions right now. I'm so exhausted from releasing all this built up held in tension. I can't think, I can't move. So fuck me, even if you fuck me hard. And let me feel you get off inside me. +That's right. I don't like condoms. If we're having sex, chances are I feel safe with you. We've talked about sex and we've discussed trust levels. The wise woman would say that unsafe unprotected sex is a death sentence. I hope you're going to help me prove her wrong. If we're using a condom, well, then just get off inside it. Less mess for me to clean up later. +But I do so love the feel of cum spurting up inside me. Some whacked out doctor once told me women don't have nerves inside their vaginas. After some less than friendly poking and prodding down there, I know he's wrong! And when a man is cumming inside a woman, she may not feel every spurt. But that rush, that sudden ejaculation, we feel that! And I LOVE it. I want to feel you cumming, I want to hear it in your moaning voice as you lose control and throw your head back and whine or howl or grunt or cry out. No matter how far down I have fallen after my own orgasm, I will be watching you to see how you cum. And if you totally give in, no matter how ridiculous you sound or look, I will still love you for it. For totally letting go with me, of all women. Just me. +We've cum. We've orgasmed. Now I want you to just lie here with me. Don't withdraw, even if your penis starts to slip out. I want to feel you inside me for as long as possible. It's truth that some of the reason for this is to keep your cum plugged up inside me until I'm ready to dash for the bathroom or fish around for cum towels kept by the bed for this purpose. But mostly, I just want this to continue, for just a little while longer. +Later, we'll get close and develop a real relationship on trust and sharing. You'll tell me all your sex stories and I'll tell you mine. And you'll tell me of the women you've loved and left, just like I will tell you of the hearts I've broken. +For now though, I am the special lucky woman. I'm the one that you fucked tonight, the one you worked for, waited for, respected and treated special. You did everything you were supposed to. +Tomorrow, we might try doggie style and work our way through the weeks up to anal. We'll do some oral, maybe even in public. We're going to have a blast as long as you keep on being the guy I was originally attracted to. All the things you worked for, all the things you did tonight? They weren't just so you could get to this moment and fuck me. If they were, well, that's disappointing. But mostly, I'm just glad to have you hear with me right now. And I'm looking forward to what we get to do next. If you're lucky, we'll sleep a bit now and get up and do it again. Maybe you'll wake up to the sweet feel of my tongue cleaning you off like a kitten and a bowl of milk. Maybe. +For now, I just feel like the luckiest woman alive. And you did that for me. Thank you. +And that's how you fuck me, how you get me off. It's not just the physical. It's the respect, and the acknowledgment of my worth. +I know what I'm worth. If you do too, you get to fuck me. Otherwise, I guess you're left perusing stories on a sex site, hoping to find that special someone who will be YOUR everything. Good luck with that ;)" +354,How to Fuck Without Saying 'Fuck',Trionyx,How To,2021-11-10,2021-11-10,2022-01-04 08:31:15,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-fuck-without-saying-fuck,Using erotic synonyms with your writing.,"['Erotic Synonyms', 'Synonyms', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Guide']",4.63,"How to fuck without saying 'fuck' +Recently here on Literotica, SisterJezabel published a nice story in which she used the term 'cloven inlet' for a woman's vulva. This was a refreshing change from the usual 'pussy,' a word which clearly has been overused in erotic literature. As I looked into the origin of 'cloven inlet,' I was struck with the multitude of synonyms available to the erotic writer for many common words. What follows is an incomplete listing of words or terms which the writer may wish to consider using in place of the more common words. (The writer certainly can explore many more terms for body parts or sexual acts. Simple search engines can turn up dozens if not hundreds of terms.) Many are humorous and may evoke interesting images. Some of these are national, regional or more ethnic in origin and should be used appropriately in any stories. Care should also be taken to match the terminology with the character(s) involved. For example, a sophisticated woman masturbating might be more inclined to say 'having a onesome' than 'hitting the slit'. +Keeping a list such as this readily available may make your writing more intriguing and varied.

The exquisite feeling of sticking your cock in that soft, velvet-like envelope and hearing your wife or girlfriend moan, ""Yes baby, that's it... fuck me in the ass... your cock feels so big in my tight ass... fuck your baby in the ass... harder... harder..."" Is that living – or what? +And let me tell you, as an aside, that no matter how big or small your cock is, it feels big in her ass! +But before you can get there, you may have to go through a bit of trouble. Is it worth it? Yes. Can I help guide you through the waters? Yes. Hey buddy, that's what I'm here for! +Now, I've read all the Penthouse and Literotica stories about all the women who just love anal sex, even the first time. They beg for it. They live for it. They want the whole neighborhood in their ass, or at least the entire produce department. Tell me, where do they live and what are their phone numbers? In my experience, women are afraid of anal sex, at least initially. Afraid of the pain, afraid of the dirty stigma the taboo. And if your wife is dead set against anal sex, ""that's an exit, not an entrance!"" then you probably feel that all is lost. You'll never experience it with her. Wrong! +I can tell you that my wife felt the same way for the identical reasons and we overcame it. It took some time. But here's the thing – it could have been a lot quicker had I known what I am going to pass on to you! +We did it all wrong at first – dove right into it. No lubrication, no arousal, no deal. It hurt her like hell and we didn't try it again for years. What a waste. I won't let you fall into this trap. +I should tell you though, if she is unequivocally against it for, perhaps, moral or religious reasons. If she has painful hemorrhoids or another medical condition – they you may possibly – not definitely – have insurmountable obstacles. But if the hang up is that she once tried it with you or an old boyfriend and has 'painful' memories of the experience, this can be overcome with some knowledge and technique. +I'm sure you've read lots of material on anal sex if you have an interest in it, like me. So I won't go over the same worn out information except for just a few biggies: +1\. Do not move your cock from her anus to her vagina, you can cause a bacterial infection and may never enjoy anal sex with her again. You can, of course, go from vagina to anus – just not the other way around. +2\. Do not start out pounding her like a raw piece of meat. You may hurt her or rip something inside. Just start off with the head of your cock inside her beautiful asshole and let her sphincter muscles adapt to it. Easy as she goes. +3\. There's no lubrication down there – it's not the vagina – you've got to bring your own. I've heard and read lots of stories where guys will use their spit or pussy juice to lubricate their cocks for rear entry – hell I've written some. How manly. But unless you both work in an oil factory, they don't work well. I highly recommend Astroglide, which you can buy next to the condoms and the drug store. It's slippery as an eel, and will let you slide right in. Plus, it doesn't smell, won't melt a condom and washes right off. Any good quality water soluble lubricant is fine. +OK, that takes care of housekeeping. Now the good stuff. First, the big question – what's so great about anal sex? Women have one nice, soft, wet hole – shouldn't that be enough? Why go through all the aggravation. Isn't one hole as good as another? +Well, yes and no. Sure the first hole is plenty good! I've had some of my best times down there. Women usually cum easier from vaginal sex. It's got its own lubrication source. It's in a convenient location, etc. +But suppose you've been there and done that a thousand times already. Suppose you're ready to spice things up a bit. Walk on the wild side a little. Experience something sort of nasty for a change. Have the opportunity to say things like ""Who's the boss? – Who's your daddy?"" without being in prison. Then anal sex may be for you! +When I first broached the subject with my wife, she declined. I think her exact words were, ""Don't ever touch me down there or I'll fart all over you."" Arousing. So I let it go for a little while – say ten years. But then, as I said, time went by and even she got a little bored with the routine. Plus, when it comes time for her period, there's a week off from sex that I don't need. +I read a lot about anal sex to her, but it always seemed like 'Advice from your doctor about anal sex.' It wasn't helping, or stirring her to action. Then I read about a book called Tristan Taormino's ultimate guide to anal sex for women. Tristan is a women who's an expert in the field. The aim of the book is to educate and initiate pleasurable anal sex. +Better still, I read that it was available on videotape. Read the review if you like. They'll even tell you where to by it online. I bought the videotape. It's a big one, two parts. We watched it together. It was a little slow at times, not your typical adult video. But it did show people talking rationally about and enjoying anal sex. +I'll never forget my wife's reaction after watching the tape. She said, ""maybe it hurts good."" I was in – but not yet. Just because she'll give it a try doesn't mean you should go about it in the same plodding way you did the first time. You'll make the same mistakes and wind up back at square one. +So here they are – the do's and don'ts – the ins and outs. These tips will work! +1\. Set aside a date and time when you'll have some real time alone. Not at 11:00pm on Thursday. Best option, go away for the weekend. You'll never have a second chance to do it right the first time. And that first time is the key. A good experience will bring you others. A bad one... +2\. Start off with a cocktail, if you drink. No, I'm not suggesting you get her drunk and sloppy, that won't work (well it might!). I'm recommending that you do something to take the edge off, to lighten things up and feel good. A drink or two can really help. +3\. Start off with lots of foreplay and get her hot and bothered first. Kiss her neck, squeeze, bite and lick her nipples, go down on her – but not enough to make her cum – yet. Very best bet – go buy yourself a vibrator if you don't own one already (what??) Play with her clit with the vibrator. Then stick it into her pussy. +4\. Now, lube up. Spread the lube liberally on your cock and around her asshole. Just around it is fine, you don't have to stick your finger in it. In fact, women I know who love anal sex hate having fingers stuck up their butt – big turn off to them. So unless she doesn't mind or wants to, don't do it. +5\. You're lubed up, she's worked up. Now a word about position. On her side works well. Or on her back with her legs way up. If you're doll is on all fours, you may have to squat over her to get your meat in right. Again, easier is better at first. When you have more experience, there are a lot of good positions to try. Like reverse anal gowgirl (RAC), where she sits on your lap on a chair or the bed with you balls-deep in her ass. +6\. Now stick just the head of your cock in her anus. It may be a little tight at first (God bless her) so don't force it and make sure you've got plenty of lube on –reapply if you have to and as often as you want to. Once the head is in there, hang out. Let her get used to the feeling of it in her ass. +7\. Then slowly, inch by inch, bury that fucker in there. Make sure she's still getting plenty of clitoral stimulation. My wife was too busy concentrating on how good the vibrator felt on her clit to worry about me violating her ass. When she was getting ready to cum from the vibrator, my cock in her ass felt plenty good - she told me. It enhanced her orgasm tremendously. +8\. After you've hit the jackpot, and stop smiling after a week, don't go back to the well too quick. Wait a few weeks, a month, before you try it again. Anal sex is not an every time event for most women anyway. +At this point my wife asks me to fuck her in the ass. Hell, she plays with my ass and it feels great! Plus, she likes it a lot when I rub her clit and lick around her asshole, sticking my tongue in just a bit. It makes her cum – hard. She never would have even thought about this before we had anal sex. +Lastly, and I hope no women take this the wrong way. A good women likes to please her man, just as, hopefully a good man takes care of his gal. If she can do something to excite and please him, that doesn't involve pain or injury, she might be more receptive than you think. It may just be a matter of some thought readjustment, jettisoning of old, useless beliefs about right or wrong. +Wrong, in my opinion, is something that causes another person physical pain or injury. Asking them to take too big a risk. Right is rejecting old beliefs out of hand, forgetting what other people might think – though who are they to tell you what to do in your sex life? – and doing something new that picks up the pace and gets the juices flowing again. +Try it – and let me know how you make out or any suggestions you may have for me!" +356,How To F*** Your Daddy,sarahhh,How To,2006-05-23,2006-05-23,2022-01-04 08:31:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-f-your-daddy,Doing your daddy basics.,"['Anal', 'Cunnilingus', 'Deep-Throating', 'Fellatio', 'Humor', 'Lap Dance', 'Older Man', 'Spanking', 'Sugar Daddy', 'Younger Woman']",4.4,"Let me preface this tutorial by saying that fucking your daddy is illegal in the United States. In the state of New York it is a felony with a maximum penalty of four years in prison. So go to France where fucking your daddy is not illegal if you are an adult. The rules of this How-To Contest say, ""We will not accept How-To submissions that teach people how to do acts that are illegal in the United States."" So let me emphasize, I am NOT talking about your REAL daddy. No, I am talking about your PRETEND daddy. Your sugar daddy. An older man (anywhere from a day to seventy years older) who is NOT RELATED to you and wants to lavish you with furs, and jewelry, and cruises, etc. In return ""daddy"" wants you to play his little (but 18 or older) girl. Daddy wants you to play his little girl. Mostly his good little girl but one who is sometimes naught and deserves a spanking, among other things. +First off, it's very important how you appear to your daddy. Let's start with the hair. Pigtails are best. Daddy just loves to pull those when you are going down on him. If not pigtails, at least a ponytail. Give him something to grab hold with his hand while you grab hold of him with your mouth. Avoid the ""bed head"" look. Daddy might think you frequently do something in bed besides sleep. You want daddy to think that this is your first sexual relationship. +What to wear is essential. Daddy likes the school girl look best. A plaid miniskirt is a must. When daddy asks why is it so short just say, ""I should have got it dry cleaned. The wool, ya know?"" Don't forget the white thigh highs. +Let's talk about the lingerie. Don't show him the black/hot pink frilly cleavage-enhancing bra and matching Brazilian panty. No big old granny bra with a g-string. Go with your basic white 100% cotton. And don't let him wear your panties. Not the first time, anyway. +Sooner or later you'll get around to the sex. Probably sooner. The first time you see his cock exclaim, ""It's so big!"" Touch his penis reluctantly at first like you are afraid of it. But with a look of great interest bordering on a little excitement. Make that ultimately turn into a look of worship. Then giggle and say, ""Daddy, your baby wants to lick a lollipop."" Use your teeth and bite him a little like you never gave somebody a blow job before. +Make your daddy want it really bad. Delay his gratification which builds physical tension and emotional excitement. Lick his penis and then stop and run your fingers over his chest. Take him all in your mouth for a few moments and then stop again. No wait, don't take him all in your mouth. Even if you can deep-throat big black cock. He might think you're a little too talented for a rookie. Take about half of what you really could do in your mouth as you tickle his testicles with your hair. +When daddy cums let him do it in your mouth. But gag a little and you must spit. If you swallow, daddy will know this isn't the first cock you ever sucked. But promise daddy you will try to swallow the next time. +So much for fellatio. Now let's discuss something important. Right—cunnilingus. You can't just blurt out, ""Eat me, Daddy!"" You need to drop hints so that he thinks it's his idea. In casual conversation use phases like, ""beaver dinner, carpet munching, muff diving, yodeling in the canyon, flipping the bean, and tickling the bearded clam."" +After your daddy gets you off at least three times it's time for sexual intercourse. But don't seem eager. You should act afraid, very afraid. Practice saying, ""But I'm a virgin!"" with a straight face over and over. And don't you dare suggest sexual positions. Daddy is going to get suspicious if you display considerable knowledge of the Kama Sutra. Just lay on your back and spread your legs and do it missionary. Chant ""Oh baby, oh baby"" over and over. It's like counting sheep. When you get to a thousand fake an orgasm. +If you don't think you can fake an orgasm convincingly, then use some V power. When daddy is on top of you in the missionary position, make a V with your first two fingers and place them around your vagina such that his penis slides in and out between them. Daddy will love the feel of your fingers on his dick and you will love the feel of your fingers on your clitoris. +Those are the basics. Now we'll cover some related issues in a little more detail. +Do not clean house for your daddy. You start picking up everything and doing his laundry and such he'll think he is going to fuck his mother instead of his (pretend) daughter. And if he thinks of you as his mother instead of his daughter you'll get some stupid plant you can't even smoke for a present instead of diamond earrings. +Don't tell your daddy his hair smells like the inside of a baseball hat. Especially if it does even after it's freshly washed. Just pass on one of your products that says ""fragrance"" in the ingredients. This means the scent is concentrated and will last longer. If that doesn't work, fill his shampoo bottle with Bain Douche Biologique. +Be prepared how to deal with any embarrassing situations that might give daddy a limp dick before you get the opportunity to make it limp yourself. For example, if you stink up his bathroom and can't find any air freshener handy, make a joke about it. Say something like, ""Hey, shit happens."" +Let's talk about talk. Yes, conversation. Watch how you talk to your daddy. Continually utter the word that drives him nuts. Right, the word ""Daddy."" Just hearing it is an aphrodisiac to him. And talk about subjects that interest your daddy. Besides sex. Talk about sports. If your daddy doesn't like sports then he is probably gay and shouldn't be your daddy in the first place. If your daddy is a hick mick from Scotland, talk about Rangers. If your daddy is from Cleveland talk about the Dog Pound. If your daddy is a Yankees fan talk about steroids and how little those dude's dicks must be compared to your daddy's. +Viagra (or similar product). Need I say more on this subject? Make sure he is adequately stocked at all times. It doesn't matter what fucking color the pills are. What matters is the fucking. +We should probably touch upon your daddy's family. If your daddy has a son your own age fuck him too. And tell Daddy you did but assure him that father sows best. If it's a daughter, inform her in intimate detail of your college days as a LUG (Lesbian Until Graduation). And now for the most difficult aspect of family relations. Right—Daddy's mommy. Suggest the old battleaxe give you cooking lessons. Then, when you're chopping cucumbers and she is whacking them with a vengeance while complaining that her husband still wants sex, offer to serve as a surrogate. +Even if the old battleaxe does give you a few pointers, don't use them on your daddy. No, you don't want to cook for him. You want Daddy to take you to expensive French restaurants. Say things to your daddy like, ""Daddy, if you take me to Le Domaine de Lintallic I'll make your meat loaf"" as you playfully fondle his crotch. That particular restaurant is in Paris and you better throw in playing the skin flute a dozen times if you expect to go there. +If your daddy has a fragile ego, make sure you don't deflate it. You should be more interested in inflation. If it should happen that Daddy doesn't get you off while you're screwing don't ever say, ""That's okay, Daddy, I'll just finish the job myself."" And if your daddy is a slow learner just grin and bear it and think of you and your vibrator later rather than hand him a pen and paper and tell him to take notes. This is important too—don't refer to your hand by sexy nicknames like ""Pussy Tamer."" +Daddy likes to buy presents for nice little girls. For nice girls who make Daddy happy. So occasionally in conversation with Daddy refer to yourself as ""Princess"" or ""Daddy's Princess."" Soon enough Daddy will start calling you Princess. Daddy will naturally want to lavish gifts on Princess. When Daddy buys you a gift, even if it's not what you want, say something like, ""Oh Daddy, thank you! You make me so happy! And when you make me happy I want to make you happy. But I don't have any money to buy you a nice gift. Tell me Daddy, what can Princess do to make you happy?"" Don't worry, something will come up. +This opens the avenue to the wonderful world of shopping with Daddy's money. Sure, he might come shopping with you to Victoria's Secret, but that just about covers his interest in retail. So, when he comes home from work, some sighs from you, rolling of the eyes, and a general listless demeanor are in order. Soon Daddy will be asking, ""What's wrong, Princess? Is my little Princess unhappy? Come and tell Daddy. Come sit on my lap and tell Daddy what's making Princess so sad."" No tears at this time, save them for special occasions. But, sadly and a little quietly, tell Daddy about your day at the mall with your girlfriends. And how you saw this flamenco-style Behnaz Sarafpour gown for only $535 and how your girlfriends all said how gorgeous you'd look wearing it. And how you were thinking how your daddy would like to see you wearing it and how happy that would make you. But you're sad because this month you just can't afford to buy it so you'll have to wear the same old rags. This tactic will often only work if your daddy is older. Use this sparingly, only for important items, and occasionally for things Daddy actually likes. +Maybe your daddy wants to be told what to do. If so, say things like, ""On your knees and bark like a dog! Oh yeah, that's good. Now let me see that big doggy tongue. Now look where I'm putting the whipped cream. Does the daddy doggy want to lick it off?"" Maybe your daddy wants to be punished before he is made happy. If so, say something like, ""You're such a bad daddy! I really want my daddy to make me happy, but I can't make my daddy happy because he's been so bad and I'm so disappointed. So Daddy you are just going to have to watch me make myself happy. But all the time I'll be wishing it was you, Daddy."" +Mostly you should be a good little girl for your daddy but once in awhile you should be bad. At those opportune naughty moments look real guilty when Daddy comes home. And say something like, ""Oh Daddy, I've been bad. So-o-o-o bad. I used your razor to shave my legs."" Then lift your skirt so he can just barely see the edge of your white 100% cotton panties. ""Don't they look smooth though, Daddy? Go ahead, feel them."" After he does and his eyes light up with some passing interest, turn around and lift your skirt up over your panties and bend over and cry, ""Spank me, Daddy!"" +Your daddy will like to play fun and games with his little girl. Daddy likes to play with schoolgirls, nurses, female cops, and even female proctologists. But the best game is lap dance. Then you get to dance around in your scanties in front of your daddy, but he's not allowed to touch. All he can do is put some $20 bills in your panties. $200 easy for thirty minutes. And maybe make Daddy happy after the music stops. But that's more $20 bills, many more. Hide and seek is a good game too. You take Daddy's credit card and go shopping for new shoes at the mall. When you come back with a dozen pair then Daddy gets to hide something. Just not in your back door. We'll get to that. +Here's one other tidbit before we get to the coup de grace (anal sex). When you are riding the crimson wave, make sure you let Daddy know that all is not lost for three or four days. Say things like, ""Oh Daddy, when Aunt Flow comes to visit I so much want to show her my pearl necklace."" If he doesn't get that hint get a banana and peel it. +And now for anal sex. Now you know Daddy is going to want that, but he's probably going to be afraid to mention it because he doesn't want you to think that he's a dirty old man. Because you are so clearly an anal virgin. And you have never even heard of such a disgusting practice. So YOU bring the subject up. Right after making Daddy very, very happy. Just as he is falling asleep. Say something like, ""Daddy, I heard some girls at the mall talking today. They were talking about using the back door for sex. I wasn't sure what they meant. Could they mean about getting their boyfriend's thing in their pooh tube? Surely that can't be right. It's so disgusting. And it would be sore!"" That will wake him up. And that's when you fall asleep. +This carrot can be dangled for several days, even perhaps weeks. Your curiosity seemingly gradually overtaking your reluctance to Daddy. Eventually, after you have made Daddy very, very happy, tell him you'd like to try it in your back door. But you say so sweetly that you hope he won't think any less of you for suggesting it. And you'll quite understand if he doesn't want to. But you'd be so grateful if he does. Obviously the first time you have got to let him know it hurts, really hurts, but for him to keep on if he's enjoying it. He won't stop. But never, ever, appear too keen to open the back door. Familiarity breed contempt, and if Daddy has to work hard to overcome your reluctance now and then, it will never become familiar. Oh, and this is where you mention a cruise. +The world is full of guys who want to be your daddy. And if any girl has had a daddy but lost him, not to worry. Any Friday night, the right sort of bar, the demure dress and the little-girl-lost look, and hey presto! Another daddy! +Now go get yourself a daddy and fuck him! If you already have a daddy, fuck him better! +One more thing—Daddy's last will and testament. Be in it." +357,How to Get a Round,MungoParkIII,How To,2007-12-20,2007-12-20,2022-01-04 08:31:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-get-a-round,A brief look into three French forms of poetry.,['Poetry'],3.2,"No, this will not be a discussion about running around on your spouse, lover or significant other, and it has nothing to do with a Beach Boy's song from the sixties. This will be a brief discussion of several French forms of poetry that have been translated into English. Much like the villanelle, all of these forms utilize a limited rhyme scheme and feature refrains. + **Rondeau** The rondeau, or rondeaux in plural form has two basic restraints from which the poem is built. The first of these is a refrain made up of the first word or words in the first line which must appear in line nine and fifteen of the fifteen line poem. The second restraint is that the remaining non-refrain lines utilize only two rhymes. The thirteen lines also must be written in the same meter, often either in iambic lines of four or five feet. +Sometimes the first five lines form the first stanza, sometimes there is no break until after the ninth line. The following rhyming diagrams will show the layout of the rondeau: +Line refrain or rhyme 1 R a —first line contains refrain 2 a 3 b 4 b 5 a +6 a 7 a 8 b 9 R -- refrain +10 a 11 a 12 b 13 b 14 a 15 R -- refrain +Or alternately +Line refrain or rhyme 1 R a —first line contains refrain 2 a 3 b 4 b 5 a 6 a 7 a 8 b 9 R -- refrain +10 a 11 a 12 b 13 b 14 a 15 R – refrain +One of the challenges of a rondeau is the effective use of only two different rhymes. The poems often have a forced or artificial feel unless the rhyme is handled with deft subtlety. + **Roundel** A roundel is very similar to the rondeau except with fewer lines and slightly rearranged refrains. The roundel should have lines of any single length, not necessarily with matching meter. This eleven line poetic form draws the refrain from the first word or words of the first line. The refrain is repeated in line four and eleven, with the stanza breaks after the fourth and seventh line. Again like the rondeau, the non-refrain lines use only two rhymes. The roundel would diagram as follows: +Line refrain or rhyme 1 R a '—first line contains refrain 2 b 3 a 4 R – refrain 5 b 6 a 7 b +8 a 9 b 10 a 11 R – refrain +Although there are not as many repetitive rhymes in the roundel the rhyme must still be handled well to avoid the rhyme feeling forced. + **Rondeau Redoubled** The rondeau redoubled takes the complexity of the rondeau and doubles it, or at least it seems that way. It is a twenty five lined poem featuring five quatrains (four lined stanzas) followed by a single quintet (five lined stanza) and a single line. Each line of the first quatrain make up four refrains that are repeated at the ends of stanzas two through five. Additionally, a refrain made up of the first word or several words of line one makes the final refrain on line twenty five. Rather than try to diagram this form I offer a sample poem, used with the permission of the author: + _ **Sweet Agony**_ +I yearn the touch, your hands are mine Searching your soft geographies Fingers ply your body supine Coaxing the ache, sweet agonies. +Your face, your eyes burn with your needs As palms press your breast's supple line And I whisper my lonely pleas: ""I yearn the touch, your hands are mine."" +Fingers and nipples intertwine Grow firm to your circular tease Then curving downward, serpentine Searching your soft geographies +You move in subtle harmonies Arching upward and then recline In rhythm with your fragrant seas As fingers ply your body supine. +Tension rises, desires entwine Throbbing lips part to your wet heat A liquid touch in rhythmic grind Coaxing the ache, sweet agonies: +A pulsing quake of ecstasies A burst of light, the sun outshined As you seethe in your lone release I'm left to dream, breathless repine +""I yearn the touch."" +James M. Thompson +There are a number of other similar forms including the Rondel, Rondel Supreme, Roundelet, Rondine, and Roundelay all of which feature the varied use of refrains and are limited to two different rhymes. Again, the restrictive rhyme requirements in all of these forms make the skilled use of rhyme an absolute necessity for these forms. +Documentation: +1\.

Of course, she gets all pissed off and belligerent and tells you to get rid of all your beloved porno videos. Sometimes she even gives you an ultimatum: ""Either the videos go or I go!"" And guess what usually goes (hint: it's not the girl!)? +But sometimes, with a little coaxing (and a lot of luck!), you may be able to talk her into watching at least one blue movie with you to see whether or not you can get her into watching--and perhaps even liking--porn movies hopefully as much as you're into watching--and liking--them. That way not only can you keep from having to throw them out but maybe even from time to time enjoy watching one with your wife or girlfriend. +However, before you pop that video into the VCR, there are some things that you should take into consideration. I mean, you can't just have her watch any old porn movie, especially if the woman in your life has been raised to believe that all pornography is ""degrading towards women"" and/or she only has sex with you ""whenever she feels like it"" with all the lights in the bedroom turned off and she only lets you do it in the missionary position. If this is the case, as it infuriately is with a number of women in this sex-negative society, then a video like The Girls Of Splash Mountain: California Cocksuckers 3 is usually not a good choice for a woman's first X-rated viewing experience. You need to be a bit more selective in choosing a video for her to watch with you since, after all, the video that you choose for her to watch may very well be the deciding factor as to whether or not she stays with your perverted ass (if you don't do her bidding and throw out your video collection, that is!)! +First of all, there are some porn actors and even porn actresses you might want to avoid. In the actor category, two actors you should avoid like the plague are Max ""Hardcore"" Steiner and Ron ""Hedgehog"" Jeremy. Max Steiner first appeared in more ""mainstream"" porno fare--like, for instance, the film Oral Obsession where he has a rather intense anal sex scene with porn starlet Vixxxen--before releasing his own videos through his company Filmwest Productions under the moniker Max Hardcore. Mad Max is often so rough with the actresses he has sex with on camera that many porn actresses refuse to work with him. He literally stretches pussies and assholes to their limit before he pounds the women's asses with his cock as hard as he can and then comes loads on their faces. Sometimes he even simulates rape scenes in his videos. They're not real rape scenes, of course, but they're ""realistic"" enough to not only scare your woman off but make her file a restraining order on you! +As for Ron Jeremy, well, they don't call him ""Hedgehog"" for nothing! Other porn actors you might want to steer clear of are Italian porn stud Rocco Siffredi and the late John ""14-inch"" Holmes. The reason why is because these two men are--on, in Holmes' case, were--much more, shall we say, blessed than the average male. One of the newer porn actors who fits this category, and yet another one you might wish to avoid, is Julian who is so well-endowed that, in the first scene of the film Sex Commandos, he gets jerked off by ""plumper"" porn actress Stacy Valentine who is able to wrap both her hands around his massive schlong and still have enough room for her to deep throat the head of his cock. (And do I have to say anything about the black porn actors?) Remember, the goal here is to get your lover turned on but not make yourself feel inadequate to her in the process. +In the actress category, three women you might want to avoid at all costs are the so-called gang bang queens Annabelle Chong, Jasmin St. Claire and Houston. These ladies--and I, of course, use the term ""ladies"" loosely--made a slutty name for themselves in the porn industry by appearing in the World's Biggest Gang Bang video series. Annabelle appeared in the first one by doing 251 guys in one day, Jasmin appeared in the second one by doing 300 guys and Houston appeared in the third one by doing 550 guys after initially planning on doing only a mere 500. In fact, it might by a good idea if you avoid anything with the words ""gang"" or ""bang"" anywhere in the title (along with midgets, clowns, freaks, etc., etc.)! Jasmin St. Claire, I think I should point out, also starred in the X-rated video classic Blow It Out Your Ass! where, in the movie, she literally shoots fire out of her asshole. Not exactly what you'd call a good date movie, if you know what I mean! Other porn actresses to avoid include Chloe Nicholle who normally goes by the name Chloe in her movies. +Chloe's done probably just about every nasty, filthy and downright demented sex act imaginable on camera (which is, of course, why we guys love her so much!). For instance, Chloe hosted and starred in the movie The Fist, The Whole Fist & Nothing But The Fist where, among other things, she takes a foot and two fists in her pussy at the same time. In her award-winning ""drama"" titled, appropriately enough, Chloe: The Story Of A Sex Addict, Chloe gets smeared with fried eggs, gets anally penetrated with an antenna from a cordless phone and gets fucked with a beer bottle. Again, not a very good date movie. Chloe, as most porn connoisseurs know, is most noted for her intense anal sex scenes and facial cumshots and especially for her boasts of not ""faking"" anything on camera. +Yet another porn starlet to avoid is the notorious Mila, who stars in the Ass Artist video series where she stuffs enema bags filled with watercolor paint into her colon and then shoots them out of her ass onto a canvas. Mila is known in the porn world for being able to turn her asshole inside out, which she does quite frequently in her movies. And, even in films where she doesn't, Mila, like Chloe, is still known for her depraved sex scenes; like, for instance, in the Vivid Video release Another Man's Wife where Mila gets double-fisted in both her pussy and asshole at the same time by porn actor Tony Tedeschi. Not exactly the type of thing you'd want your girl to see in an X-rated video with you the first time out, especially if it's the first one she's ever seen. +As for other videos to avoid, be wary of any video put out by any company called Angel (e.g. Erotic Angel, Elegant Angel and Evil Angel). Though they may have the word ""angel"" in their company title, the videos they release are anything but angelic! Evil Angel, for example, distributes videos produced by HIV-positive porn star John ""Buttman"" Stagliano where women are not only routinely fucked in the ass--hence the name Buttman--but are also slapped and spat upon. Elegant Angel distributes videos produced by highly depraved porn director Rob Black who directs movies like Gangbang Angels where Eurasian porn starlet Stephanie Swift gets spit on by a group of males and, in the movie's climatic moment, licks the hairy bunghole of Ron ""Hedgehog"" Jeremy. Erotic Angel, likewise, releases similar-themed videos. +Another type of video to avoid is the so-called gonzo video. These videos feature little plot and a whole lot of sex, usually of the depraved and kinky variety. A perfect example of this kind of video would be any video directed by highly twisted ""gang bang"" director John T. Bone, such as Perverted: The Babysitters Vol. 1 where, in the first scene alone, a young blonde-headed tramp with freckles and wearing pigtails gets gang banged by nearly half-a- dozen porn studs dressed in diapers and wearing bibs like babies who take turns reaming her in the ass while she sits on porn actor Peter North's well- endowed cock before they lay her upside-down over a chair and shoot their wads all over her face. Yet another type of video to avoid is the ""all-girl"" or ""girl/girl"" video. It's all right if there's a girl/girl scene in the video you select for your lady to watch since, of course, about 99.9 1/2% of all porn movies feature at least one lesbian scene and can also appeal to her ""bicurious"" side (which all women seem to have, by the way, whether they'd care to admit it or not!). +But, if you make her watch one of these videos, she might just make you watch a gay male video out of sheer spite. So, unless you're a little bicurious yourself, I don't think this is a chance you'd want to take, do you? Still yet another type of video to avoid is any video that has a young-looking girl on the box cover. And by young-looking I mean girls who look like they've just graduated from high school (or maybe even still in high school!). These kinds of videos include the My First Time, Dirty Debutantes (directed by and starring pasty-faced, eyeglass-wearing, middle-aged Ed Powers), Cherry Poppers (directed by Gen X porn auteur Matt Zane), and, my own personal favorites, the Kelly The Coed (starring Britney Spears look-a-like Allysin Chaynes) video series. Guys, don't let those innocent smiles on the box covers fool you. These young ladies--and, again, I use the term ""ladies"" loosely--do things in these movies that you only dreamt about in high school (and a few things you didn't!). +And, lastly, the final type of video to avoid in choosing one for your sweetie to watch is what I call the ""big boob"" video. Here are some examples of big boob videos (actual titles of actual videos): Booby Prize, Mammary Lane, Gazongo, Bodacious Ta-Tas, you get the picture. Also avoid big-boobed porn actresses with names like Whitney Wonders, Wendy Whoppers and Letha Weapons. As you might've guessed, those aren't their Christian names! Anyway, just like you don't want to feel inadequate to her, she definitely doesn't want to feel inadequate to you. A good rule of thumb is if the actress on the box has noticeably bigger tits than your woman, then don't make her watch it, all right, guys? (Another good rule of thumb is to fast-forward through all those phone-sex ads at the beginning of every video before letting your woman see them since they a lot of times show stuff that's a lot kinkier than the actual content of the video!) +Now that I've told you what kinds of videos to avoid, here is a list of videos that are what I call ""female friendly"": Practically any video released by the aforementioned Vivid Video, a company that specializes in what they call ""full-length films for couples"", is usually a safe bet. Of course, they do occasionally release more raunchier videos, like the one starring Mila I mentioned earlier, and especially videos released under their Vivid Raw and even Hustler imprints. (While I certainly have nothing against Hustler, some women don't, uh-hum, appreciate Hustler the way most men do. So it might be a good idea to wait and show her these videos if and when she gets off on the milder stuff, okay, fellas?) +Here I would suggest a Vivid film like Borderline (starring the gorgeous Celeste and the small-breasted Missy) and Trapped (starring the kinky Kobe Tai and the equally insatiable Julie Rage). While these films do have the occasional anal sex scene and facial cumshot (and let's not forget the lesbian scene!), the actresses who perform in these scenes don't act like they're having a seizure, a la Chloe, and they don't look like they're having the life reamed out of them, a la Max Hardcore. And, most importantly, none of these films feature Ron Jeremy (no offense, Hedgehog!). +There are also a number of ""female-oriented"" blue movies that are directed by women that aren't as graphic as other porn vids. The most notable of these female directors is probably ex-porn star Candida Royalle who directs and releases her own films like One Size Fits All through her company Femme. But, be warned, just because a video is directed by a woman doesn't make it ""safe"" for your woman to watch (think Chloe Nicolle, who also directs her own porn movies, and you'll see what I'm getting at!). Other X-rated films I would suggest for female viewing are the classic porn films, circa the seventies and eighties (except, of course, for classic films like Deep Throat and Debbie Does Dallas, for obvious reasons!). These films featured more realistic- looking women--and realistic-looking men, except, of course, for John Holmes! --and even the sex was more realistic and spontaneous (or, at least, it was made to appear that way!). +A perfect example of these kinds of films would be Insatiable parts I & II starring the legendary Marilyn Chambers (who has since returned to doing X-rated films after a long hiatus, by the way). Released back in the early- eighties, both these films have not only gone on to become million sellers but seem to be loved by both men and women. +For instance, I was watching Marilyn Chambers being interviewed on this call- in TV talk show one night and this woman called the show and told Marilyn how much she ""enjoyed"" these films. Even Marilyn herself stated on the same show that she occasionally masturbated to the infamous ""pool scene"" where she's having sex with a stud--supposedly for the first time--on top of a pool table that was so hot it was featured in both movies! Now whenever a porn actress admits to jilling off to her own movie, you know it's got to be good! (The first Insatiable, I feel I should point out, features a cameo by John Holmes in the last sex scene of the movie where he sticks his 14-inch rod into the ass of Marilyn Chambers. But I think in this case an exception can be made, don't you?) +Well, there you have it, my suggestions for what movies to select--and, of course, which ones to avoid--if you want to get your significant other interested in porn. Of course, there are lots of women out there who openly admit to getting off on porn, including the raunchy stuff. In fact, a number of statistics and polls show that nearly 50% of all people who rent and/or buy porno videos are in fact women. However, as there are women who actually like pornography, there are still a good many women nowadays who wouldn't admit to liking porn or watching it even if you had a gun pointed at their head. +But, guys, don't despair; if your current girlfriend insists she hates porn no matter what and leaves you because you won't stop looking at it and getting off on it. You could very well find a woman who'll like porn even as much as you do, perhaps even more so! And if, in fact, you do find such a woman, consider yourself blessed." +359,How to Get Her to Do Anal,ClaudetteLauzon,How To,2009-10-12,2009-10-12,2022-01-04 08:31:19,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-get-her-to-do-anal,"A simple, necessary guide for men.","['Anal Dildo', 'Anal Sex', 'Anal Stimulation', 'Fear', 'Lubricant']",,"Okay boys, here are the down and dirty things you need to know to get her to let you give it to her ""back there."" Most women are probably like me, they have had guys begging them to let them do it, and a few have tried it once or twice to discover that it is painful. Pain is not a requirement of anal, and that is something that people need to know. Now boys, if your girl has had one of these experiences, she is going to be even more reluctant to let you do it. My biggest suggestion is to be patient. Don't ask her while you're in bed, and hope that she'll turn around and offer it up to you like a birthday present. It probably won't happen unless she has done it before and liked it. +And she can like it, all it requires is a little sensitivity on your part, and a willingness to follow a few simple directions. I will dispense my advice on this subject now. +1\. Tell her that you fantasize about it, but don't ask her to do it-- not yet. Hearing you talk about it will put thoughts in her head without making her feel pressured or nervous. +2\. Many of you will not like this one, but here it is: ask her to do it to you. I'm not suggesting you buy a strap-on or anything, although if you are into it, great-- I'm talking about asking her to just put her finger up there. Tell her how great it feels, and how much you love it. +Before you let her do this to you, allow me a few personal preference related suggestions. Wash yourself well, and make sure you don't need to ""drop the kids off at the pool"" anytime soon. This is a messy and unpleasant discovery for any woman (okay, most women). Furthermore, buy yourself an anal douche, if you want one a bit more cheaply (anytime it is marketed as a sex product the price shoots up a thousand fold), you can go to your local pharmacy and buy an enema kit or bag. This will ensure that your colon is empty and clean before you proceed. I know, an unpleasant thought, but let's be real here for a moment: we all know what comes out of there, don't we? +3\. Use a lot of lubrication, your choice here, but ensure that you are using enough. Then ask her to insert her finger in your ass. Don't say it like that. ""Darling, would you do me the courtesy of inserting your digit into my rectum?"" won't do you, her, or the mood any good. Say something sexy; ""I want to feel your finger inside me,"" works well for me, it isn't crass, but doesn't leave a lot to the imagination. +4\. Once you have conquered her fears in this area, try suggesting the same for her. Start small gentlemen! You generally have larger fingers than we do, and if you scare her or hurt her now, you'll be SOL. Go slowly and gently and, trust me, once she gets over her initial embarrassment, she'll be purring and moaning under your ministrations. +5\. Purchase an anal dildo. Okay, I can see where this might be an uncomfortable purchase for you to make. Nothing says awkward like walking to the woman at the counter with an object that screams ""I love it in my ass."" Nonetheless, suck it up and do it. Or order it online if that is easier for you to deal with. Make sure it is somewhere between the size of your largest finger and your erect penis. You may even want to purchase something like the Doc Johnson Anal Tool-- it has increasingly larger bulbs on it to help stretch her although it's purpose is really more about the sensation. +6\. Give it to her as a gift, but not in the bedroom. Let her think about it, dwell on it, anticipate it. If you have done everything right up until this point, she'll be thinking about the potential for enjoyment rather than fearing the thing. +7\. Speaking of letting her think about it, you want her to be really turned on. I mean really. Any anxiety or tension in her body will make her tighten her sphincters making the whole thing fairly difficult and unpleasant. +8\. Once you have her moaning in exquisite pleasure, start to use the anal dildo with her. The purpose here is to increase the stretching capacity of her anus, while making her relax, knowing it won't be painful. Don't do any of the porn moves-- the hard thrusting, the really deep insertion-- save that until you are both experts. +9\. After a few experiences with the dildo, you may be ready to try the real thing. Once again, make sure she is really turned on. She should be dripping with need before you go anywhere near her backdoor with your member. Go down on her, describe your fantasies, tell her all about what you want to do. If you can, make sure she has an orgasm before you go for it; this ensures greater relaxation as well as higher levels of specific ""feel good"" hormones coursing through her brain. +10\. Lube well. And then, lube again. I cannot emphasize the necessity of this enough. Use your finger to work it up inside her, and make sure you are coated fully. Now, start slow, with just the tip, and gently, GENTLY I SAID, work your way in. This may not be the night to achieve complete penetration, it may be another few nights until you are able to do any real thrusting, but trust me, the results are worth it. You want her to enjoy it as much as you do. If she doesn't, you ain't getting' it again baby!" +360,How to Get Her to Swallow,ClaudetteLauzon,How To,2009-10-16,2009-10-16,2022-01-04 08:31:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-get-her-to-swallow,"A ""more academia than lusty"" oral How-To.","['Oral Sex', 'Swallow']",,"After receiving a request for just what follows, I give you this piece of wisdom. Note: My wisdom, and $1.90 will get you a small coffee at D&D! +So gentlemen, I bet a lot of you are wondering the answer to the following question: ""How do I get her to swallow?"" At least, that was what the request I received asked of me. Here is my take, for whatever it's worth, on that very subject. +1\. Each man's ""taste"" is different-- or so I've heard *wink*. It also varies based on diet. If you are a man who eats a lot of garlic or onions, drinks a lot of coffee, or consumes items high in sulfuric compounds -- certain antibiotics like Bactrim, Septra, and Pediazole (although I hope none of the readers are taking that one-- it would violate your user agreement), anticonvulsants, diuretics, or foods like kelp, kale, turnips, brussel sprouts (although I don't know why you'd want to eat those)-- your semen will be more bitter. If you really want her to get it in her mouth at all, try to cut these items way down. Of course, if your drugs are long term, medically necessary, this may not be a good choice. +It is possible to eat differently to improve the taste, so I encourage you-- strongly-- to do so. Consuming foods like lemon, celery, pineapple, and other high sugar fruits, in addition to herbs and spices like cinnamon and parsley have, anecdotally, been shown to sweeten the taste of your ejaculate. This is a very nice gesture on your part, so make sure you tell us. +2\. Now if she is a ""spitter"" rather than a ""swallower,"" you are already half way there. Many women mistakenly believe that spitting it out will help them to avoid the taste, which-- trust me men-- is not preferable to cheesecake no matter what some of these stories may insinuate. However! The good news is, that if she swallows, the taste doesn't stay in her mouth as long. The act of spitting actually spreads the flavor along all the various types of flavor receptors on the tongue, and will cause the taste to linger. +Another thing you can try, which you'll love too, is the Altoid trick. Altoids are the best for this, but any highly flavored peppermint will do. As she is blowing you, have her keep one in her mouth. The sensation will blow your mind (pun intended), and it will also overpower any unwanted flavors that she may encounter. +3\. Now, if she is a ""tell me ahead of time"" kind of gal, you are going to have more difficulty. Although I am not entirely certain why a woman would do something so hurtful, I know that this is an issue. And let me also take this opportunity to apologize on their behalf. I can imagine that it would be like a guy telling me he didn't want to go down on me because it was ""gross tasting."" Yeah. Big X for him. On the other hand, she may have some perfectly valid reasons: STD's (STI's) can be easily transmitted through contact with bodily fluids like semen if you have a cut in your mouth, on your lips, etc, etc. If this is not her concern, assure her that there is nothing harmful about it: approximately 7 calories-- she certainly won't get fat-- and containing, on average, 3 million sperm, it is entirely harmless. +I will suggest the following: +A: Tell her you want her to. Appeal to her nurturing side by explaining that it is hurtful to you that she is ""grossed out"" by it. Even if it isn't true, I'd believe it, and I'm a bit of a Doubting Thomas. +B: Ask her what her opposition to it is: if it is the taste-- see numbers one and two, and show them to her too! If it is the texture, which at times can be a little off-putting, explain that the ""texture"" changes. If you haven't had an orgasm in a while, the texture is different than the resulting ejaculate of a second orgasm. You may want to offer to masturbate before hand-- I'm sure, with the promise of her swallowing, this wouldn't be a hardship. +C: If she just thinks it is gross, you may be SOL. Nevertheless, you should talk to her honestly about it. Tell her why you want her to swallow: what it means to you. You may also want to mention that it just plain feels better if she keeps going until you are done cumming. Give her the following analogy: What if I stop whatever I'm doing just as you start to have an orgasm? Imagine the difference for me. +Here is my advice for the ladies: As the Nike commercial says: Just do it. Make sure it's at the very back of your mouth, as far back as you can get it without gagging yourself, when he orgasms. This way, the ejaculate doesn't hit any of your taste buds at all. Really, with the face baths we expect them to take, what's half an ounce of semen?" +361,How to Get Laid in Outer Space,GratefulFred,How To,2008-05-04,2008-05-04,2022-01-04 08:31:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-get-laid-in-outer-space,Hitchiker's guide to getting laid in the universe.,['Alien Sex'],3.61,"Prologue +You won't find any ""Don't Panic"" encyclopedias, end of the universe restaurant bartenders, laboratory mice, or intelligent fish to help you on your quest to scoring with galactic 3 tongue whores, cock twirling pussy nymphs or a host of other hot green-blooded titanium mining Aliens daughters, but rather this here ""How-To"" manual shall be your universal source of carnal knowledge in the cosmos. +We expect that after you have practiced alone the techniques described herewith in front of a mirror you will be ready to move on to the next step, namely being to rip out the convenient cloth page and clean the mirror before your wife/mom returns home -- hence you see we have thought of everything, including keeping your wife/mom occupied while you make a fool of yourself masturbating in front of a mirror. The universe as you may have fantasized has hundreds of zillions of able bodied full figured females just looking for some fun noncommittal sex and perhaps to demineralize earth right afterwards, but remember done right the sex is mind-blowing. +Good luck on your journey, +© GratefulFred +Chapter 1 -- Getting outside Earth's gravity +Whereas 99% of intelligent life in the universe has made this jump, most of you Earthlings seem to be grounded only occasionally riding a mere 35000 earthly feet over sea level. The secret has been well known, but unfortunately those who've discovered it were unprepared for space travel. Since this is a beginner's course we will explain the obvious. +The trick is to take your thumb and insert it up your ass and twist. This will shoot your body outside of Earth's atmosphere and land you in a passing spacecraft. I will say this in a language even you Earthlings should understand - Do this only when a spacecraft is in the vicinity. Thus far the tourists maps have not painted a pretty picture of you Earthlings with your constant littering of space with all your naked dead bodies! +Chapter 2 -- First Impressions +Speaking in a foreign language is considered rude behavior once you are on an alien spacecraft. Since all Aliens have mastered telepathy (another simple feat) they will know of your intentions to have sex and will call for the closest female to greet you. If you pull out a condom they will throw you into deep space. +Chapter 3 -- How to get your first interstellar blowjob +Always hold the female Alien's hands while getting your penis sucked. If you forget this vital rule you may discover a thumb up your ass and seconds later it'll get very cold, very suffocating and get you very dead. Aliens can breath in space and they get off seeing how long you can stay hard after life has left your body. +Chapter 4 -- Sex in the City +All female Aliens watch Carrie and the girls on reruns. They know New York and worship everything to do with that show. If you say the words ""Mr. Big"" and point to yourself, this is a sure fire way to have sex around the clock; shortly afterwards you will arrive to meet the Alien's family and have sex with the Alien's sister; After which the two Alien sisters will have a terrible fight; Afterwards you will be their dinner; use this tactic if you are suffering from some life threatening illness or don't mind shredding a few hundred pounds. +Chapter 5 -- How to squeeze four tits with two hands +Don't! Female Alien's tits have minds of their own. If you squeeze two and neglect two you may discover your arms have left their sockets. You can rub your body on top but do not show any favoritism. Naturally anyone who thinks they can lick one Alien nipple at a time deserves the beheading. +Chapter 6 -- Penetration and the Venus Fly Trap Theory +Facts are you earthlings have small sexual equipment and without this vital advice you will last perhaps a second if something like a commercial for ""Sex in the City"" shows up. Use your arm. Stick it inside all the way in an out-out motion. If you do a good job the Alien will scream out in delight and you will feel your arm dissolved away in burning vaginal acid. Try and relax as Aliens do have the technology to grow your arm back save it will now resemble a long penis. +Chapter 7 -- Giving a Female Alien Oral Sex +Ok penis head -- reread last chapter. +Chapter 8 -- Returning Home +Should any of you wish to return to the boring Earthly way of life just twist your thumb in your ass in the opposite direction while crisscrossing the Milky Way Galaxy.

I bet men don't know that, as far as women are concerned, there are five levels of sex. I bet men don't know that there's such a thing as level five sex, the top tier of sex that all men should aspire to when having sex with women. Did you know that? A secret, sadly only those men who had level five sex with women know that there are different levels of sex. Only, there aren't very men who've had higher than level three sex with women, never mind men who have had top tier sex with women. +Alas, an elusive award given only to the very best of men, not many men attain such a high honor to reach the zenith of sexual satisfaction. An achievement of a lifetime, once you've had level five sex, no doubt, you'll want to have top tier sex over and again. All men who have had top tier sex want to have top tier sex all the time and with all women. Once they've had level five sex, never will men settle for any sex level other than level five. +Oddly enough, sex levels have nothing to do with physical appearance. It doesn't matter what men and/or women look like. No matter if men and women are plain looking instead of handsome and beautiful, anyone can achieve and maintain level five sex. Anyone can feel that sexual bliss that's only limited to just a few. With women already knowing the secret but unwilling to share it, men need only to know how to reach level five to enjoy top tier sex. This story will tell all men how to enjoy better sexual satisfaction from all women. +With most men not even knowing that different levels of sex exists, few men know that level five and top tier sex exists. Not many men can boast that they're having top tier sex with women. Level five sex is the pinnacle of orgasmic pleasure, the Zen of sex that transfers the subconscious mind from a state of consciousness being to a state of unconsciousness. If only briefly for a few seconds, eyes literally roll back in their heads while men and women soar through the universe in a state of sexual pleasure that they never thought they could achieve and be capable of not only ever feeling but also maintaining. +A rarity of men having level five sex with women, with only one man in a million to receive such a high honor of having top tier sex bestowed upon them, if men think they've had it, they've never had it. If men brag about having level five sex, they've never had top tier sex. No man who's had level five sex would want any other man to know that there's such a thing as level five sex. Those who have experience the pleasure of level five sex belong to a secret society, a special species of men and women. Trust me, anyone who has had level five sex would know if they were having and/or have had level five sex. +* * * * * +In the way that men rate women on a scale of one to ten for having the prettiest face, the best eyes, the best hair, the best body, the best rack, the best ass, the best legs, and/or possessing the best cocksucker skills, women rate men too. If you're a man, did you know that women rate you too? If you're a man, I bet you didn't know that women rate you too. +How could you possibly know that when women are secretive and don't usually tell men what they do behind closed doors while having a glass of wine with other women. Indeed, if only just once to try it, in a lonely, horny, and/or drunken or high moment, most men would be surprised to know that their wives, girlfriends, and/or significant others have had lesbian sex in college or in their basement. For fear that men would ask women to have lesbian sex again while they watched, even if men asked women if they've had lesbian sex, few women would confess that they did and fewer women would tell men the lurid details. With most women not enjoying another woman licking their pussies, most women would rather have men lick her pussies. +Top tier sex is reserved sex and only given to men who are usually the very best pussy lickers, although there are always exceptions to every rule. Just as men love having their cocks sucked, women love having their pussies licked. Something that most men don't know, no doubt, being how few men take the time to pleasure a woman by licking her pussy long enough for her to cum, is that women love having their pussies licked. Most men would rather have their cocks sucked than to lick women's pussies. Most men care only about their own sexual satisfaction. By being so sexual selfish, most men miss out on all the real fun of sex. Sadly, throughout their entire lives, most men will never go beyond level one or level two sex with a woman. +A true statistic that was investigated and analyzed by the GAO, the general accounting offices of the government of the United States of America was commissioned under President Clinton. The research that the president undertook was at the insistence of Hillary Clinton as part of his penance for receiving a blowjob from Monica Lewinsky. Unfortunately the classified documents and their findings were not only never released but also they were never made public. Only after digging through the Library of Congress under stacks of Hustler magazines and Penthouse Forum volumes did I find the redacted documents. Sadly and unfortunately, the findings of the official GAO report are this. For every one thousand cocks sucked, there's only one pussy licked. Sadly and unfortunately, it's true. For once, money well spent, the government got it right. +A true statistic, with Hilary Clinton not having had her pussy licked and her not sucking a cock in more than 40 years, Monica Lewinsky was the reason for the research. Even though Miss Lewinsky gave President Clinton a blowjob, he did nothing more than to fuck her pussy with his unlit cigar. Being that she was an attractive woman, especially with the sexy seduction of that bright, red lipstick in combination with that cute beret, I wonder if the president kissed her, French kissed her, and made out with her before pushing her to her knees. Lipstick on the dipstick, I wonder if President Clinton asked her to apply more red lipstick before she blew him. Being that she was a busty woman, I wonder if he even took the time to play with her tits and fondle her nipples while kissing her. +If only he had licked her pussy instead of defiling her pussy with his cigar, this entire scandal may have been avoided. If only he had licked her pussy instead of allowing her to suck him, he never would have been exposed by the DNA evidence of his cum stain on her blue dress. A Rhodes Scholar attending Oxford, how stupid could he have been to have had sex with a lowly intern? +Alas, if only he had licked Monica Lewinsky's pussy, he never would have been impeached. Sadly, if only he had licked her pussy instead of being done with her after ejaculating his semen in her mouth. If only he had licked her pussy instead of shooting cum down her chin and neck, and all over her blue dress, he may have achieved as high as level three sex with her instead of merely having to be sexually satisfied with level one sex. If only President Clinton had licked Monica Lewinsky's pussy, a knee jerk reaction instigated by the First Lady, the official investigation by the GAO comparing cock sucking to pussy licking never would have been authorized and a senate sub-committee never organized to begin the process of impeachment. +Relegated to having level one sex for the rest of his life, President Clinton had no idea what he was missing by allowing Monica Lewinsky to suck him without him returning the oral favor. A long-term extramarital relationship, a dyed blonde, older version of Monica Lewinsky with her decorated with the same shade and full application of lipstick, he did attain level three sex with Jennifer Flowers. Perhaps because Monica was so young, he was happy to have only level one sex with her. If only he thought more of her sexual satisfaction than he did of his own, he may have been promoted to a level two sex status. Or, in the way he attained level three sex with Ms. Flowers, being that he was the sitting President of the United States of America, he may have attained level three sex status with Monica too. +Alas, if only he had licked her pussy, none of this would have been made public. If only he had licked her pussy instead of allowing her to suck his cock, surely, with no physical evidence to examine and to prove that they had sex, all of this would have been he said, she said. Alas, not to be, it is what it is and what's done is done. Bravo for Hillary for forcing her husband to have the GAO compile the information that analyzed cock sucking to pussy licking. Had it not been for Hillary, the first hint to men that there is more to sex than women sucking their cocks, men may have not had any inkling that there are five levels of sex. +* * * * * +Level five sex also known as top tier sex is the highest sexual intimacy that a woman can bestow on a man or a woman and that a man or a woman can receive from a woman. Level five, top tier sex, is the gold medal of sex. As far as women are concerned, level five, top tier sex is the Congressional Medal of Honor, the Medal of Freedom, and/or the Nobel Prize of sex. +Unlike playing Super Mario when having to master one level at a time before being allowed to move up to the next level, having sex with women is much different than a mere video game. Bypassing levels and not having to go through all of the levels to receive top tier sex, just as any and all men are capable of giving women top tier sex, any and all women are capable of giving men top tier sex. Any man is capable of receiving top tier sex at any time. Yet, alas, just because she may be sexually attracted to him, seldom is any man worthy of such a high sexual award. Not wanting men to think them sluts, women will ever confess to men that there are different levels of sex. Not wanting men to think them whores, women will never admit that there's such a thing as top tier sex that they reserve for someone special. +No matter what men look like, whether they're ugly, old, and/or fat, most men don't realize that the way to a woman's heart is not with flattery or with money but through her pussy. Men are no different than women in that regard. Just as men want women to suck their cocks, women want men to lick their pussies. The best way for men to seduce women, even the most beautiful and the sexiest women, is by giving her the best orgasm she's ever had when giving her oral sex. Ergo the problem. +Men may be the Don Juan of pussy licking and may be the best pussy lickers in the world, yet that's not enough unfortunately. The problem still remains how does someone who looks like you get someone who looks like Sofia Vergara, Kate Upton, Angelina Jolie, Charlize Theron Rhianna, or Scarlett Johansson in bed naked for you to show her that you deserve her to give you level five sex? Whether enticing her with your charm, your looks, your kindness, or you're your money, keeping a woman interested in you is a whole other story. Yet, just because you were lucky enough to get a beautiful woman in bed once for a one night stand, the dilemma is how do you keep her there? Hopefully, this story will tell you that sexy secret. +* * * * * +Just as there's top tier sex, there are many levels of sex when it comes to women giving men or other women sex. When it comes to sex, the difference between women and men is that women don't want men to know that they dwell on sex as much as men do. In the way that some men have always kept a little, black book with dates of their sexual encounters along with details and the scores of their sexual prowess, women have always maintained different levels of sex. The best way to keep a woman sexually interested is to give her a sexual memory. +""He may be not much to look at and he may not be rich but that was the best oral sex I've ever had in my life. I've never cum as hard as when his tongue and fingers were buried in my pussy."" +For the sake of all men and all women having better sex everywhere, I decided to break my silence and tell men about women's dirty, little, sexual secret. In the way that women keep an internal score that plays out in the intensity of their sexual passion, I decided to tell all men everywhere that all women have different levels of sex. As if playing a Super Mario game when having sex with a woman, the higher levels of sex are reserved for certain men and for specific sexual occasions. Unfortunately, not very many men will go beyond level three. Extraordinarily few men will reach level four. All but the best men will know the special feeling of having level five sex with a woman. +Being that I've been writing about the different sex levels that women have, now is the time to identify the five levels of sex. Now is the time to come clean about women's sexual secrets. Now is the time for all men to know that any man, at any time, can attain having sex higher than level three sex. The first step is to know what men are doing wrong and how to change their sexual behaviors. +* * * * * +A little bit better than the self-abuse of masturbation, level one sex is the sex a woman gives a man who she really doesn't know all that well. Level one sex is the quickie sex that women give to someone who picked her up in a bar or at a nightclub when she's had too much to drink. Level one sex is the sex women reluctantly feel they must give men in the backseat of his car for them to leave them alone so that they can leave. With not much of a difference between the two levels, level one sex, sometimes known as uninspired sex and/or unconscious sex, is the same sexual satisfaction that a mortician receives when having sex with a dead body. Level one sex is the same sexual satisfaction that, no doubt, Bill Cosby receives when having sex with a drugged woman. +Much higher than level one sex but nowhere near as inspired sex as level three sex, level two sex is the sex that women give her husbands, boyfriends, and/or significant others on a Saturday night when they're too tired for sex and just want to go to sleep. Finally, by giving men level two sex, women relent in having men use their bodies for the sake of their sexual satisfaction so that they'll leave them alone so that they can sleep. A bit higher than unconscious sex, level two sex is the sex where the woman is actually talking, perhaps pillow talking, to her partner. Even though level two sex may be the same unsatisfying sex for the woman, with women screaming their feigned delight and faking their orgasms, level two sex is usually more satisfying for the man. +Sadly, just as men think that women are really having a good sexual time and are interested in having sex with them, women would much rather get it over with so that they can sleep. If only men knew, whenever a woman is having level two sex, she's always thinking of things other than having sex. When women are having level two sex, emotionally unattached, they may be there in body but they're seldom there in mind and in spirit. Where level one sex is reluctant and begrudged sex, level two sex is uninspired and/or automatic sex. Only and unfortunately, as long as they get themselves off, most men don't care whether they're having level one or level two sex. +Level three sex is definitely without a doubt more inspired sex and more sexually exciting. Level three sex is the sex that the woman is excited about having, giving, and reciprocating. Level three sex is the sex that most women dream and sexually fantasize about having while masturbating themselves to an orgasm. Level three sex is the sex extramarital sex. Level three sex is the sex that women give to husbands', boyfriends', and/or significant others' best friends. Unfortunately, most husbands, boyfriends, and/or significant others will never experience level three sex from their women. For a husband, boyfriend, and/or significant other to experience level three sex, he'd have to cheat on his wife, girlfriend, and/or significant other with another woman. +As the late, great Kurt Vonnegut would say, ""Tweet, tweet, so it goes..."" +In addition to having level three sex with your husbands', boyfriends', and/or significant others' best friend, level three sex is sometimes better known as incestuous sex. Level three sex is the sex that women reserve when having sex with brothers, sisters, uncles, fathers, brother-in-laws, and father-in-laws. Not to be confused with level two sex or with level four sex, which I haven't even discussed level four sex yet, level three sex is also the sex that a woman gives her husband, boyfriend, and/or significant other when rewarding them for doing something nice for her. +Sometimes not always, depending upon the relationship, level three sex can be reached by taking a woman out, buying her flowers, and/or giving her perfume, a piece of jewelry, or buying her an outfit that includes buying her shoes too. No doubt, most of you have experienced levels one and two sex with a few of you occasionally experiencing level three sex with a woman. Yet, it's the rare man who has experienced level four sex. +Level four sex, typically called rebound sex, is the sex women reserve to make themselves feel better after an emotional breakup of a relationship. When given to an unsuspecting man, level four can also be used as women's way to get even by having sex with someone they know would make their ex crazy insane with anger. +""What? Bad enough that you had sex with my three best friends but you had sex with my brother, father, and uncle too? Why did you do that?"" +In addition to rebound sex, level four sex is the sex women give men when they clean the whole house. With him washing the windows, waxing the floors, vacuuming, doing the dishes, and cleaning the bathrooms, cleaning the whole house is worthy of receiving level four sex. Not only do most men not know there's such a thing as level four sex but also most men don't know how easily it can be achieved by merely cleaning the whole house. Only and unfortunately, when women clean the whole house, men don't give them level four sex. Women are lucky to have the energy left for level two sex. Only and unfortunately, unaccustomed to cleaning the whole house in the way that women routinely do, most men are too tired to have level four sex after cleaning the whole house. Too pooped to pop, after cleaning the whole house most men will usually settle for level one sex, getting a blowjob while watching football. +Level four sex is the same level of sex that women give men when men pretend to listen to them, really listen to everything they're saying, while holding their hands, nodding their heads, and giving them Kleenexes. Level four sex can sometimes be achieved by giving women backrubs, pedicure, foot massages, and American Express Centurion, black credit cards for women to go shopping and buy an unlimited amount of clothes and shoes. The Hell with doing something nice for women, taking them out, buying them jewelry, cleaning the house, listening to them, and giving backrubs, pedicures, and foot massages, or AMEX black cards, level five sex is mostly reserved for men who are masters pussy lickers. +Oh, yeah, with women as sexual as men, achieving level five sex can be that simple. Men can be the worst bastards on the planet but if men know how to lick women's pussies, they're their heroes. Suddenly, instantly, and emotionally dramatically, they're their level five men. Indeed, the best men deserving of receiving top tier sex are reserved only for the very best pussy lickers. Trust me and without a doubt, as long as men strived to be the best pussy lickers, women will always give those men top tier sex. +* * * * * +Only, it's not easy to become the best pussy licker. It's difficult to correctly learn such a sexual skill and erotic technique. Some men are born naturally to it while others must practice, practice, and practice. In the way that some women give lousy, uninspired, spitting blowjobs, some men have no idea how to lick a pussy. The only advice that I can give men who want to become the best pussy lickers and achieve level five sex is to forget about receiving blowjobs for a while and just concentrate on pussy licking. Trust me, if you give women good pussy lickings, they'll be more than happy, thrilled actually, and inspired to suck their cocks. +Unfortunately, most men think that they just put their heads between a woman's legs and lick her up and down while waiting for her to have an orgasm before they can get to the really good part of sex of her giving them a blowjob. Right? Wrong. Unfortunately, those clueless men been stuck in level one and level two sex way too long to know any better. +""I got this,"" said Ralph. ""Licking a pussy is as easy as can be. It won't be long before she has an orgasm. It won't be long when I'll be done licking her and when I'll finally really be enjoying myself with her giving me a blowjob."" +""Duh, loser. You're so wrong. What a waste of time, such a waste of time for a woman to be having sex with someone like you."" +At the most, women will give men level two sex for trying and perhaps level three sex for giving her an oral orgasm. Yet, level three sex is as far away from receiving level four sex or even five sex, top tier sex, as level three sex is as far away from level two sex and level one sex. All this time men have been settling for levels one to three sex when they could have had level four sex before reaching the top tier of having level five sex. If only men knew that there are different levels of sex, yet how could men know when women will never tell them that there are different levels of sex? Top tier sex is women's dirty little, albeit sexy secret. Men only need to know the combination to unlock women's vaults. +* * * * * +In the way that sucking a cock is an art form with all of the deep throat movies, pussy licking is an art form too. Those men not giving women oral orgasms while licking their pussies will never have any sex beyond level three sex. It's only those men who enjoy licking pussies, truly going down on a woman, who are rewarded with level four sex and even level five sex, top tier sex. Most men don't know that women even have a second level of sex never mind having subsequent levels of sex, do they? Most men don't know that women reward men who are better pussy lickers with higher levels of sex, do they? +Most men routinely experience not much more than mere blowjobs when having sex. Most men have no idea that they could have had so very much more than uninspired, semi-conscious sex. Something that all men need to aspire to, all men could have top tier sex if only men gave women what they really wanted, expert pussy licking. All this time when not even getting women to cum by staying between their legs long enough while licking and fingering women, men thought they were the loving men for dabbling at and briefly licking women's pussies when they weren't. If anything, men who don't get their women to cum during oral sex are pathetic. +Shame on you for not giving women as many oral orgasms as you hope to have blowjobs. Shame on you for not licking and fingering women's pussies in the way that women routinely suck men's cocks. If for only one reason more than any other, women put up with the sexually selfish asses of men because men are the fathers of their children. How dare men not make women cum when all men want to do is to cum in women's mouths? Most men are what women are stuck with when dreaming about real men, men who'd give them not just a good pussy licking but the best pussy licking. +Any man or woman for that matter with a tongue can lick a pussy but it takes a special pussy licking man or woman to reach the top tier level of sex, level five. Beautiful women, desirably women, and sexy, shapely women have been known to stay with men, older men, and not such good looking men just because the men are skilled pussy lickers. Don't believe me? Allow me to give you some examples of expert pussy lickers. +Just ask Angelina Jolie why she was not only with Billy Bob Thornton but also why she stayed with him so long. Just ask Angelina Jolie why she stole Brad Pitt from Jennifer Aniston. Just ask Jennifer Aniston why she married Brad Pitt in the first place and why she pined over the loss of him. Billy Bob Thornton and Brad Pitt have discovered the secret of level four and level five sex. They are both expert pussy lickers. Why do you think Angelina Jolie is always smiling? +Billy Bob and Brad aren't the only men who routinely have level four and top tier sex. Rick Ocasek with supermodel Paulina, Billy Joel with Christie Brinkley, and Donald Trump with all of his young beauties. Why on Earth would these beautiful women not only date these men but also stay with theses average looking at best men? Trust me, it's not for the money that these women are attracted to these men when many of these women are already wealthy. The reason why these women stay with these average looking men is because these men have found the secret, sexual success that great pussy licking can bring. +Just ask Michael Douglass how he got Catherine Zeta-Jones never to leave his bed. Why do you think 35-year-old Coco is with 56-year-old Ice? When she could have had anyone, how do you think 45-year-old Jay Z got 33-year-old Beyoncé? Further, when she can have any woman on the planet, even Hillary Clinton, why is Oprah with Gayle King? That's right. All of these people, albeit celebrities have reached the top tier of sex just by mastering the art of licking a pussy. Just because some of these men can no longer cut the mustard sexually when in bed with a woman, they can still lick the jar. +* * * * * +Money you say is the reason why this one is with that one but with all of these celebrity women wealthy in their own right, they could be with anyone. With all of these celebrity women wealthy in their own right, they don't need a man. Instead of being with any man, they chose to be with their ultimate pussy lickers. Just ask Jay Lo and Madonna why they prefer younger and less sexually experienced men. It's because they can teach them how to lick a pussy. +When any of these superrich women are bored, their personal pussy lickers are there to lick their pussies. When any of these spoiled women are sad or just having a bad day, their personal pussy lickers are there to lick their pussies. Just as men put so much stock in having their women suck their cocks and allowing them to cum in their mouths, women give the highest sexual regard to the best pussy lickers. Level five sex and top tier sex are reserved for the best pussy lickers. If men want the secret to sexually turning on a woman, they need only lick their pussies and make them cum while going down on them orally. +As if he's the world master, grand champion in Martial Arts, a tenth degree dan, black belt, there's only been one man in the history of men who has reached a sexual level higher than level five. No one knew there was a level higher than five, not even many women, until this man came on the scene back in the 50's. Some women say that he can make their pussies tingling wet by him just looking at them. Some women say that he has two tongues. Some women say that his fingers are motorized. Some women say that they've never had their pussies licked until they had their pussies licked by him. +Still going strong today at 88-years-old, he's surpassed level five by going to levels six, seven, eight, and nine. Now at level ten, with his technical, sexual skills all learned by practicing the art of pussy licking and by concentrating on licking pussies instead of merely receiving blowjobs, he is the oracle of pussy licking. No one man has had sex with more beautiful, busty women than this man. No one man has licked as many pussies as this man. No one man is a better pussy licker than Huge Heffner, the founder of Playboy Magazine. +THE END" +363,How To Get People to Read Your Story,Whispersecret,How To,2001-05-05,2001-05-05,2022-01-04 08:31:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-get-people-to-read-your-story,The importance of a good title.,"['People', 'People Read', 'Poker Party', 'Read Story', 'Reader', 'Story', 'Title']",4.37,"What makes a Literotica reader click on a story? Many people choose from favorite categories or authors. Still others rely on the little “H” (for Hot) and “E” (for Editor’s Pick) designations. Often, I’m sure it’s just random impulse. +If you’re like most of us authors, you aren’t just writing for yourself. You want other people to read your work. Here at Literotica, the competition is fierce. I’m going to explain how you can push the odds in your favor. +When a reader looks at the New Stories page, he finds a list of titles and one-line blurbs describing the stories. As a writer, this is your first chance to hook a reader’s interest. Laurel, the webmistress, writes the one-liners, and luckily for all of us, she’s damn good at it. You, however, choose the title of your story. Be smart and take advantage of this. Here are some do’s and don’t’s. +1\. Take some time to think. Really! Don't settle for the first title that flits into your head. Let’s say your story revolves around a wife and a poker party orgy. _Linda and the Poker Party_ seems bland and unimaginative. (Plus, it’s kind of a cliché plot anyway.) At least challenge yourself to think of a clever title. Personally, if I don't get that _That’s it! That’s THE TITLE!_ feeling, I keep thinking. Pay attention to your intuition. Choose a title that resonates with the story you've written. +2\. Often catchy titles are plays on words. Luckily the subject of sex lends itself to that very well. For example, my non-consent novella is about a girl whose father sells her to a corporate pirate to use as he pleases for one week. I named that tale _Hostile Takeover_. You can see the double-meaning. +Try looking for a pivotal theme, idea, or scene from your story and brainstorm words and phrases around it. Taking the poker example, I might think of bets, wagers, chips, laying cards down, bluffing, full house, four of a kind, dealers, winning the pot, antes, raises, etc. Then I might try to associate one of those thoughts with some aspect of the story. These examples aren’t the best, but hopefully you get the idea. + _Betting on My Wife Ass, Mouth, and Pussy: Three of A Kind Calling Her Bluff Bluff or Muff? Bluffs and Muffs The Jack-Off-Pot_ +3\. Another method for choosing a title is to quote a phrase in your story that jumps out at you. While writing a story set on a golf course, I gave it the working title, _By the Water Trap_. I knew that was a stupid title, so after finishing the first draft, I looked for a catchy, engaging phrase that somehow captured the fun, romantic mood I was trying to create. I ended up calling it _A Hint of Gorgonzola,_ which is something one of the characters says in the story. +4\. In general, I’d stay away from _The (fill-in-the-blank)_ titles, such as _The Pool, The Apple, The Stripper,_ etc. Stories with these types of titles may indeed be titillating, but as a reader, I’ll be more likely to pass and go to another with a more intriguing title. Remember, the goal here is to get them to click on your story. All the wonderful writing in the world won’t help unless you get them to choose your story above the others on the list. +However, this type of simple title can be effective if a word is unusual or thought-provoking,. My second erotic novella is called _The Artifact._ Despite the fact that I generally dislike _The (fill-in-the-blank)_ titles, I’m happy with this title because the word “artifact,” conjures an ancient mystique that I want. +5\. Titles that revolve around the female character’s name are so common, they’ve become cliché ( _Candy’s Hot Adventure, All About Kimmy_ or _Cindy Gets Laid_ ) If you go this route, there’s a danger that your story will get lost among the other name titles. This isn’t to say names have no place in a title. If you can incorporate the name in a unique way, then do it. Just don’t be boring. For example, I’ll probably ignore _Nina’s First Time_ , but I may click on _Nina and the Man from the KGB_ , just because I’m curious about the spy aspect. +6\. Some people swear by alliteration (using words that repeat the first letter, as in ""Hot, Hefty, Humongous Hooters."") Be careful about forcing alliteration just for its own sake. You run the risk of having your title sound contrived. Tawny T. maintains alliteration is one of the reasons for her popularity, but at this point, I think her consistent use of alliterative titles is more of a trademark for her, rather than a practice that all authors should put into use. +7\. Because the categories at Literotica are set up alphabetically, some authors try to gain an advantage by adding asterisks or numerals to their titles. ( _*The Birthday Party*,_ or _16 Ways to Fuck Mommy_ ) This way their story will be at the top of the list, even before the A’s. Or they are a little less blatant about it and just use a title that starts with A. I think this is less than admirable behavior. It’s tantamount to admitting your story can’t stand on its own, so you have to try to manipulate the lists to give it an edge. +8\. Beware of “tricking” the reader with a title that doesn’t fit your story. If you wrote a romantic, erotic interlude between two loving people, and you name it _My Endless Fuckorama_ you’re misleading the readers into thinking your story is something it’s not. And they’ll get annoyed. On the other hand, if your story is just about sex, pure and simple, wet and wicked, you might want to say so with your title. +No matter what type of story it is, I personally prefer understated titles that don't have an obvious sexual connotation. Then I have the opportunity to figure out the double-meaning myself, and it's not pushed into my face like a foul-smelling cock. That’s just my opinion. Not everyone feels the way I do. Some people looking for masturbatory fuel appreciate being able to recognize the pure porn from the XXX title. +Now, I’ve gone on and on about titles, because it’s the first thing readers see, but there are a couple of other things you can do to increase the number of people clicking on your stories. +When you submit work to Laurel, you are asked to identify some key words because many readers use the “search” function to find stories they want to read. When making your list of key words, think like a reader. What key words would you use to search with? If you create a comprehensive list, you may grab more readers than you otherwise would have. However, don’t cheat by using popular words like “incest,” if there is no incest in your story. Again, you’ll just end up making people mad. +Lastly, the most difficult (but the most fulfilling) method to get people to read your stories is to build a readership. There are many well-known, good writers here at Literotica. People know they can rely upon these authors to provide them with a well-written, hot story. If you have only just begun dabbling in erotic fiction, don’t fret. Just keep this in mind as a goal. +To summarize, the simplest way to get people to read your story is to choose a solid title. Avoid the commonplace and strive for the intriguing. Choose your key words carefully; some people choose stories based on them. Finally, write your best and keep posting. Readers will be loyal to authors who faithfully deliver excellence." +364,How To Get Rich Quick,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-20,2008-05-20,2022-01-04 08:31:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-get-rich-quick,Freddie's part two in his self-help how to series.,"['401K', 'Billionaire', 'Credit Cards', 'Millionaire', 'Money', 'Savings Account', 'Stock Market']",3.42,"So, you want to get rich quick? How rich do you want to be? C'mon, it's just the two of us. Whisper it in my ear; only don't blow in my ear this time. Wow! That much? You are a greedy person aren't you? Now, that is really being rich. Actually, it doesn't matter how rich you want to be because I can help you become as rich as you dreamed of being rich. +Just out of curiosity though, how much money do you make now? C'mon, it's just the two of us. Whisper it in my ear; only seriously don't blow in my ear again this time. It's not funny. No kidding? That little? No wonder why you want to be rich. I don't blame you one bit for wanting to be rich. With you making so little money now, a thousand bucks to you would be a fortune. +Between how to lose weight fast and how to become rich quick, I've pretty much cornered most of the self-help books and programs on the market haven't I? Now, seriously, what about my name Bostonfictionwriter did you not understand? I write fiction. Did you seriously believe that I could really help you become rich quick? +Wait; don't leave just yet because, actually, I think that I can help you to get rich, only maybe not quickly. Let's start with a bit of commonsense first. You need to ask yourself three questions. +1\. Why do I want to become rich? +2\. How much money will satisfy me? +3\. How quickly do I want to become rich? +Seriously, these are important self-help questions that you must honestly answer. Realistically, you will never succeed in becoming rich quick unless you first identify the reasons not only why you want to be rich but also how much money you need to be rich and how quickly you want to be rich. +Moreover, it is important that you write down your answers. You need not share your answers with the rest of us, but by the mere fact of writing the reasons down on a piece of paper that you can review from time to time will give your reasons more weighted importance in your mind. Along with being in your conscious thought, the process of recording your answers will put them in your self-conscious thought and allow you to focus more on receiving what you want. +Basically, it works much like that principal that everyone is going crazy over, The Secret. Well, that was hardly a secret, duh, wanting something so bad that you think about it all the time. Yeah, now you've got a secret, too. You want to get rich quick. +Now, after you write down your answers to these most relevant and revealing questions, why do you want to become rich, how much money will satisfy you, and how quickly you want to be rich, fold the paper in a small square and tuck it away in your wallet or purse. There may be days that you may need a bit of motivation and this may help you to focus on your goal of becoming rich quick and if you have the paper there to whip it out and read it, the thoughts will remain in the forefront of your mind. +Matter of fact, the comedian and actor Jim Carey used the same principal. Early in his career before he found fame and fortune, he wrote himself a check for ten million dollars. At the time, he barely had a pot to pee in and two nickels to rub together. Yet, he believed in himself. Finally, a few years ago, he was able to cash that check. Think about it. It makes sense. It's all about positive thinking. +First let's ponder why you want to be rich. +This simple question has different reasons for so many people. Of course there are the obvious reasons, such as buying things, a new car, a boat, a motorcycle, a grand house, new furniture, jewelry, and clothes. Then, there are other things, such as paying off school loans and medical bills, assuring your children have money put aside for their college tuitions or you have enough money not to worry about retirement. Those of you who travel may put a top of the line recreational vehicle high on the list while others may plan a world cruise or luxurious trips to Europe or family vacations to Florida. +For me, the answer to the question of why I'd want to be rich is that I'd buy my freedom. No longer would I need to work at a nine-to-five job. No longer would I have to answer to anyone. I'd be in control of my life finally and could buy anything, go anywhere, and do anything at any time without worrying about how to pay for any of it. +That is what I'd do with the money. I'd buy my freedom. Moreover, I'd buy my children's freedom, too. Never would they have to worry about not having enough money to do the things that they wanted to do in life. +Now, let's consider how much money it will take to make you feel rich. +Different people have varying degrees of what it means to be rich. If you are a homeless person on the street, they may think that ten thousand dollars is rich, as it would give them enough money to put down on a place to live, but some of life's necessities, clean themselves up enough to get a job, and get them back on the road to making a better life. +There are those who may think that one hundred thousand dollars is being rich, having enough money to buy a new car with enough left over for a down payment on a house. Those two things, a new car and a down payment on a house are the two things that most people want. +Then, there are those who may think that one million dollars is being rich. Unfortunately, so many people will not even earn a million dollars in their lifetimes. A million dollars is rich enough for most people and enough money to live comfortably for the rest of their lives. +Yet, with inflation the way that it is and after watching the lifestyles of the rich and famous, a million dollars is not nearly enough for anything anymore. Many people who want to experience life at the other end of the fabulously rich spectrum would need a minimum of ten million dollars and more like one hundred million dollars or even a billion dollars to consider them rich. +So, there you have it. Pick a number. What's your number? How rich do you want to be? +Lastly, how quickly do you want to be rich? Yes, I know, most of you who are reading this are mouthing the word...Now! Well, Abra Kadabra won't work in this instance. Even though this story is about how to get rich quick, there is no magic wand for being rich, especially being rich instantly. We all want to be rich and the quicker the better. I've never known a person to turn down free money though, and I have a few ways to get you some free money, which is money that is already your money but money that you may have let slip through your hands. +Realistically, unless you win the lottery for millions of dollars, are purposely and unremorsefully run over by the president of Coca Cola while he drove a Coca Cola truck, are left a vast fortune when your crazy aunt Hilda died, invented the cure to the common cold, invested in a new startup Internet company that actually made your molecules travel through space and time ala Star Trek with their time warp travel transporter, then you will have to make your fortune the hard way. You'll actually have to work hard and earn it. Sorry, but it is best you stay in school and finish your education because you'll have a better chance of being struck by lightning than getting rich quick. +Yet, there is light at the end of the tunnel. There are some things that you can do now to become rich sooner than later. Surprisingly, by applying the list of twelve items below, you just may become a millionaire. +1\. Pay off your credit cards. Do you realize what those jeans that you just bought on sale and charged on your credit card will end up costing you? Figure about two and a half times what you paid for them. So, those twenty dollar pair of jeans will end up costing you fifty dollars. Do not use your charge card unless you can pay the balance in full when the bill is due. +2\. Pay cash for everything, yes, even your car. If you don't have the cash, don't buy it. Paying cash not only allows you to avoid paying extra on interest charges and late fees when you don't pay on time but also it will limit your spending to what you can truly afford. Instead of buying the new Hummer, you may have to buy the used Honda Civic because you only have $10,000 and not $50,000 to pay over time. +3\. Except for renting your apartment, which is a terrible idea, never under any circumstances should you rent furniture of fixtures. Stay away from those rent to own stores. They are a rip off. You are better off waiting until you have to cash to buy what you need. The same thing applies to taking out weekly pay check loans and accepting your tax refund money early from those tax services. Do you realize the interest rate you pay them for the privilege of having early use of your own money? It's whopping. It's a rip off and it's costing you money. +4\. You need to buy a house. Yes, before you add those shiny $2,000 set of 20"" chrome rims to your ten year old Honda Accord, buy a house. Save that money that you would have spent on foolish things towards a down payment for a house. You will never make wealth without owning property. Consider the game of Monopoly. There is no way to win that game unless you own Board Walk, Park Place and the Rail Roads. +5\. Pay yourself first. When you get your paycheck every week or every month, put something aside for you. Whether it is $25 or $250 after a year or two you'll be surprise how quickly it will accumulate. +6\. If there is a 401K at work, invest to the maximum, especially if your company matches part or all of your contribution. This is free money people. This is a benefit given expressly to you by your company that you can not afford to take advantage of while toiling away for them. It is not uncommon for long term employees to leave their companies with six figure savings over the course of fifteen or twenty years. Moreover, you are allowed to roll over your 401K into another plan at a different job. +7\. Pay someone to do your taxes. So many people miss so many deductions because the tax laws change every year and the average person does not have the expertise to take advantage of the changing tax laws. +Now, I'm not advising you to do this, but if it was me, I'd pay someone to do my taxes correctly but not have him file them. Then, I'd take them home and increase all my itemized deductions to where I'm getting most of the monies that I paid in taxes back. Hey, if the rich people can get away with cheating on their taxes and paying one half of one percent on their enormous incomes, why should I be a sucker and pay ten to fifteen percent, twenty to thirty times the amount that the rich people pay? +8\. Take a little money and invest in the stock market. On average the market rate of return on investment is 9-14% per year. Which stocks should you buy? It doesn't matter so long as you buy blue chip stocks, diversify, reinvest your dividends, and hope for stock splits. +For those who are nervous about the market and about losing money, buy stocks in the products that you use and that you like. Buy stocks in the company names that you trust. +Take a look around your house at those things that you buy all the time, that you can't do without, and that you love using because of their quality, value, and/or engineering, whatever. Find out the name of the corporate company and buy stock in them. You really can't lose. +9\. Buy in bulk. Buy those things that won't go bad, such as toilet tissue, paper towels, paper plates and cups, Kleenex, water, trash bags, lunch bags, tin foil, plastic wrap, soaps, dish detergent, tooth paste, shampoo, razor blades, deodorant, breath mints, and/or anything that has a shelf life of at least a year. Watch for sales and buy it by the case. You will be amazed how much money you will not only save but also how much money you will have at the end of the year because your pantry will be completely stocked. +My favorite stores are BJ's Wholesale Club and Wal-Mart. If I can't buy what I need at either of those stores, I do without. Yeah, sometimes I splurge and hit the outlet stores, but I leave my charge card home pay cash for what I buy. +10\. Whenever you must buy appliances or furniture shop around for deals. So many companies now offer no interest financing so long as you pay for your purchases within the allotted time. The catch, of course, is that if you don't pay for the purchase in that time, you will be charged interest from the day you made your purchase. +11\. Use it up, pass it down, wear it out, and repair it before buying anything new. We all waste so much money buying stuff we don't need. Think about and question what you are spending your money on and why you are spending it before reaching in your pocket. Do you really want that? Do you really need that? Impulse shopping is the worst. Stay away from the malls. +12\. I've saved the best for last. This last item is the most important and is the best way that I know how to get rich quick.

How to entice you to read by using mother and son incest. 2. Enticing readers to read stories by using mother/son incest. 3. I show how to entice readers by using mother & son incest.,"['#1', ""How To Broaden A Writer'S Reader Audience"", 'How To Develop Characters', 'How To Entice Readers', 'How To Get Readers To Read My Stories', 'How To Show Instead Of Tell', 'How To Write A Better Story', 'How To Write Dialogue', 'How To Write Erotica', 'How To Write Pornography', 'The How To Difference Between Erotica And Pornogra']",,"Writer shows how to entice readers to read her stories by using mother and son incest. +There are more than fifty-five thousand writers who contribute stories to Literotica. With all of the stories, tens of thousands of them that appear each year and nearly three hundred thousand stories that appear in Literotica's archives, how do I entice readers to read my story on Literotica? Not an easy thing to do, especially when there are so very many other stories on the site vying for the readers' attention, how do I entice a reader to read my story when there are so very many other stories to read? +Since there are so many other stories to read, why would a reader take the time out of his or her busy life to read my story over another story? Surely, no one has the time or the inclination to sit for hours every day to read every, single, new story that posts on Literotica. Chances are readers will go to their one or two favorite authors and/or categories to read the new stories that posted for that day before scrolling down the new story list and/or searching through the archives hoping to find the story or stories that interest them. With so very many stories on the site, chances are that they won't read my story but someone else's story. +For the time they're looking at the daily list of new stories, wanting to read something good, sexy, and hot, Literotica's pornographic and erotic readers are a captive audience just waiting for my story to grab their attention. Nonetheless, my job as a writer, before they scroll by my story to read someone else's story, I must capture their attention for them to read my story. Either by the title, by the category that the story posts in, and/or by my reputation as a writer, my story must reach out and grab them for them to read it. So how do I do that? How do I entice the reader to read my story? +* * * * * +No matter which category a reader favors, typically, it's the title and the first sentence of the story that grabs the readers' attention, even if it's a category that they don't normally read. Another way of grabbing readers' attention is to make all of my titles as close to 35 letters as possible, the most letters that Literotica allows in the story title. That way, by making my story more noticeable in making my title longer, as if waving to the reader to catch their eye, my story title sticks out past all the other story titles. Tricks of the site, for the same reason as stated above, I also make the description line of the story, the line that appears just beneath the title, as long as Literotica allows too, about 60 characters. +As another way to entice readers to read my story over someone else's story, I could write more pornography. Being that most readers prefer reading pornography over erotica, something to get them sexually aroused enough to masturbate over, I could write more stroke stories, instead of writing more erotic, real stories. Writing pornography over erotica is certainly one way to gain more readership but at the sacrifice of those who prefer reading erotica over pornography. Besides, more difficult and rewarding to write, I much prefer writing erotica than I do pornography. +Since most readers prefer reading incest stories, I could write stories for that one specific category and that one select audience. Whether they are mother/son/father/daughter, sister/brother, grandmother/grandfather/grandson/granddaughter, uncle/aunt/niece/ nephew, and mother-in-law/father-in-law/sister-in-law/brother-in-law stories, incest stories are the most popular stories on the site. Dating back to ancient times, even though there is so much more to writing erotica than writing mother and son incest stories, nonetheless and by far, mother and son incest stories remain the favorite incest stories on the site. Why is that? +Call it Sigmund Freud's Oedipus complex, when a man fantasizes killing his father to have sex with his mother, this one storyline, not necessarily killing one's father but definitely having sex with their mothers, seems to be the favorite fantasy of men. Especially but not necessarily, if their mother is a MILF, a mother I'd like to fuck, men love reading about women that are young, sexy, and beautiful enough with young sons that are old enough to give them hot sex. Ergo, if I wanted to entice readers to read my stories, I could concentrate on that one specific category and on that one niche of writing mother and son stories that show a beautiful, young mother seducing her son or a son having his wicked way with his shapely and sexy mother. +Perhaps it's better that I show the reader than to tell the reader how I can entice a reader to read my stories by writing an incestuous story of a mother seducing her son. Perhaps it's better to give the reader an example of what I mean by writing a short, incestuous scenario of a mother with her son. Below is an example of how to entice readers by using a mother and son incest story. +* * * * * +""Mom, I'm home,"" said Johnny walking in the front door from his college class. ""Mom? Where are you?"" +* * * * * +Pornography versus erotica, instead of beginning the story with sex between a mother and her son as a pornographic writer would, conversely as an erotica writer, I first need to introduce my characters with some character development to explain who my characters are and what their motivation is. Already from the first line we know the son's name is Johnny and being that he's home from college class, over 18-years-old, he's old enough to attend college. Different from pornography, erotica uses dialogue, description, imagery, and tension to gain and maintain the readers' interest. Even in a pornographic story that's filled with sex but little else, a reader won't read a story unless he or she feels connected to a story by, at the very least, a character that interests them. Unless the reader just wants to read about sex while masturbating, an undeveloped character won't interest anyone to read the story past the sexual parts. +* * * * * +It was just him and his mother now since his father left them five years ago for his sexy secretary, Jennifer, a woman nearly half his age. If taking her husband suddenly leaving her without warning wasn't difficult enough, leaving her for a woman who was young enough to be his daughter was even more difficult. As if he stuck a knife through her heart and left without so much as looking back to see all that he was leaving behind, her, his son, and the good home that she provided, how dare he do that to them? +Thirty-seven-years-old when her husband left her and now 42-years-old, even though Maureen was an attractive woman, how could she compete against a 24-year-old woman? She couldn't. How could she compete against someone so young and carefree? She couldn't. +How could he do that to her and to her son? Five years later, his secretary isn't even thirty-years-old. He's such a pig. How could he abandon her and his child for sex? Wait until Jennifer dumps him for a younger man. +Wait until Jennifer grows older and gets dumped if not by her husband, then by someone else. Wait until it's her turn to cry with a broken heart. What comes around goes around. Young and beautiful now but that won't protect her from rejection later when she's older and not as good looking then as she is now. +Someone who wasn't weighed down with the responsibility of a husband, a child, and a house, could concentrate all of her attention on him, the man that she stole from Maureen, Johnny's father. As a woman and a as person who has her own wants, needs, and desires, she didn't have that kind of time to dote on her husband in the way that his sexy secretary could. Putting herself in the background while caring for their house and their son, she couldn't just forsake herself for him in the way that some, young, immature, slut of a secretary could. There was no getting her husband back or even wanting him back now after how he humiliated her by cheating on her with another woman and a much younger woman at that. Taking the breakup hard and walking around in a daze as if losing her mind, she's been drinking ever since. +* * * * * +Now that we have a brief glimpse of the mother, we need a brief glimpse of the son. Being that this is an incestuous relationship, a mother and son sexual story, chances are that the mother and son will have sex. So now we need to know what motivates them to come together for sex. Why would a mother have sex with her son is more curious than why would a son want to have sex with his mother? Since most sons fantasize about having sex with their mothers at one time or another, it's easier to understand the son's motivation to want to have sex with his mother than it is to understand the mother's motivation to want to have sex with her son. Moreover, normally, with the mother the more mature adult who's more in control of her emotions and with a young son who's eternally horny, it's much easier for a mother to seduce her son than it is for a son to seduce his mother. +* * * * * +""I'm in the kitchen,"" said his mother leaning against the refrigerator to steady herself while supporting her resolve with a heavy hand on the kitchen counter for what she was about to do. +As soon as Johnny walked in the kitchen, he saw his mother standing in the middle of the room. +""Mom!"" +""Hi Johnny,"" she said nervously smiling at him while taking a sip of her drink. ""How was your class?"" +How was his class? Who cares about college? As if he had seen a ghost, he stopped dead in his tracks. As if he was still sleeping and dreaming or as if he was drunk or high, he questioned his sanity. +As if his sexual fantasy had come to life, immediately he developed an erection. Then when she turned to face him, she gave him a full frontal view of her. As if posing for a Playboy Playmate photo shoot or as if starring in a porn movie, his mother stood there staring at him staring at her. As if he was having his usual fantasy of seeing his mother naked in his dreams, he couldn't believe his eyes. Naked, naked, naked, with nothing but for her wide, bright smile, his mother was standing there naked. +""You're naked,"" said Johnny talking to his mother's exposed, big breasts. +She looked down at herself obviously to see all that she was showing and all that he was seeing before looking back at him with a face full of sexual excitement. +""Being that you're stating the obvious, I guess that I am naked. It's a good thing that I didn't open the door to get the mail or the newspaper,"" she said with a laugh while continuing to stare at him staring at her. ""I would have given the neighbors quite the show that I'm giving you now."" +Never removing his eyes from her nakedness, staring from her breasts down to her pussy, he stared at her body as if trying to remember every curve of his naked mother. Definitely, never forgetting the naked sight of her, he'll be masturbating over this sexy sight of her for years. She must be drunk for her to be standing there in front of him without her clothes. She must be crazy to be standing in front of him naked. +""Why are you naked?"" +* * * * * +Why is the mother naked? We don't know. The reader will have to read more of my story to find out why the mother is naked. +With just the appearance of his naked mother and with just the son asking his mother why she's naked, hopefully, I've already hooked the reader to want to know why the mother is naked and to read more of my story. No doubt aroused that a mother is not only naked in front of her son but also that the reader wants to know why the mother is naked in front of her son, the reader feels compelled to read more of the story. +Instead of mother and son just jumping in bed to have incestuous sex, something usually missing from a pornographic story, what happens next is more character buildup to make the reader not only feel the mother's plight but also see the son's incestuous, sexual excitement. The reader won't care about the characters and about the story, unless I show the reader who the mother and son are. Moreover, such a bold move on the part of the mother, still the unanswered question, the readers want to know why Johnny's mother is naked. +* * * * * +Always looking at her as if undressing her with his eyes, today he didn't have to do that. Right here and right now, as if he was dreaming her, she was already naked. Standing before her son without wearing a dress to conceal her beautiful body, she wasn't wearing a blouse or a bra to conceal her C cup breasts, her pink areolas, and her erect nipples. She wasn't wearing panties to cover her trimmed, auburn pussy and/or her round, firm ass. Standing there naked, she wasn't wearing any clothes. +Standing far enough away from her to take her all in with one glance, he looked from her face to stare at her tits and then at her pussy. With his eyes continually moving up and down from her breasts to her pussy as if he was watching a vertical ping pong game, he was as much sexually excited as he was confused. Glad that she was naked, he thought, but why was she naked? No doubt, either she's lost her mind or she must be drunk. Believing the latter than the former and since she was drinking at this time of day, he figured she was drunk. +* * * * * +Building the tension by delaying in telling the reader the reason why his mother greeted him naked, the reader still wants to know why this mother is standing before her son without her clothes. Moreover, now we know that not only is the son interested in seeing his mother naked but also we know that Johnny wants to have sex with his mother. As it so happens, Johnny has been fantasizing over having sex with his mother for five, long, sexually frustrating years, ever since he turned 18-years-old. Being that his mother is standing there without her clothes, it seems inevitable that mother and son will be having incestuous sex. Especially if incest and especially if mother and son incest is something that interests the reader, thus far, I was successful in enticing the reader to read my story. +* * * * * +""We need to talk Johnny,"" said his mother taking a big sip of her drink for courage before brushing back her long, red, beautiful hair from her bright, blue eyes. +As if she was a new bride and walking up to her husband to give herself to him on her Honeymoon, she walked to her son to offer herself to him. In the way she's done so many times before, she ran her fingers through his red, soft hair and looked deeply in his blue eyes that matched hers. Then, something she's never done before, she gave him more than a motherly kiss on the lips before surprising him by parting his lips with her tongue while pressing her naked body against him to give him a pelvis to pelvis hump of a hug. Something so very inappropriate that a mother should never do with her son, this mother was French kissing her son while naked. +As if he was dreaming her kiss but using everything around him as a reference that he wasn't dreaming, when she put her arm around his neck, he could hear her ice cubes clinking in her glass. When she French kissed him, he could taste the alcohol on her lips and on her tongue. While hugging him, smelling as if she had just emerged from a fragrant bath of exotic, bath oils, the aroma of the mixture of perfume and body wash reminded him of all the times he cracked open her bathroom and bedroom door to peep on her while she was bathing or dressing. Such a familiar scent, as soon as he opened her door to peek at her nakedness, in a rush of steamy fog, he was greeted by the same smells. +The familiar floral smells of his mother made more powerful with her being naked, as well as the feel of his mother's shapely, naked body was intoxicating. Alas and unfortunately, she had been drinking again. He didn't like her as much when she was drinking. Always worrying about her now, especially whenever she was home alone, he was just glad that she was home and not out driving drunk again. He didn't understand how someone so beautiful and so sexy could be so unhappy to be drinking and now to be standing before him naked. +Naked, naked, naked, he couldn't believe his mother was naked. Naked, naked, naked, he couldn't remove his eyes from her beautiful, naked body. Naked, naked, naked, wanting to touch her, feel her, and caress her everywhere, he wanted her now more than ever before. All that he could think about was that he was finally seeing his mother naked. +Nonetheless her being naked, he didn't understand why his mother didn't move on and find someone else to take his father's place. Not a happy drunk, he didn't like her when she was drunk. A chore that he didn't mind doing, more than once he had helped her to bed. Never having the courage to undress her, more than once he felt her through her clothes while hoping she was too drunk to notice his inappropriate albeit loving touches of her beautiful, sexy body. +While standing there in the dark watching her sleep, more than once he held her drunken hand to his bulge. Once even, he dared to put his naked cock in her hand. Moving her hand back and forth with his, he had her give him a drunken hand job and stopped just moving her hand before cumming. +So soundly sleeping drunk, he even ran his cock across her lips while imagining his mother sucking him. Involuntarily, he hoped she'd take him in her mouth and suck him but she didn't. More than once, he wished he could strip himself naked and climb in bed bedside her. With his cock buried between her ass cheeks, he imagined spooning her while feeling her big tits and fingering her erect nipples. +His incestuous, sexual fantasy was to undress her on the pretense of putting her bed naked so as not to wrinkle her clothes. He couldn't count the number of times that he masturbated while imagining himself undressing his mother naked for bed. And now, here she is standing in the kitchen naked before him naked. Naked, naked, naked, with his cock aching for her, the incestuous lust that he felt for his mother screamed through his head in the way of a fire alarm. Certainly not needing to undress her for bed now, he could only imagine where he'd touch her when putting her to bed later tonight when she was soundly sleeping. +* * * * * +When developing characters, as part of a character's description and as part of bonding the reader to the story, writers use the five senses, eyes seeing, tongue tasting, hands touching, nose smelling, and ears hearing. Using the five senses connects the reader more to the character. By using the five senses, instead of them just being words on a page, we give characters human traits to make them more real and more believable in the readers' minds. The writer needs to breathe life into the characters so that they won't fall flat and, instead, will move up from the page to become three dimensional in the readers mind. +* * * * * +Unable to control himself with him never having felt his mother's naked body against him before, he returned her kiss before wrapping his arm around his mother's waist to pull her closer and to hug her tighter. A thought he's masturbated over doing many times before, holding and hugging his mother's naked body is something that he never could have imagined the sensation of that he was feeling now. He couldn't believe that he was holding his naked mother in his arms but he was. +He couldn't believe he was French kissing his mother but he was. With a son French kissing his mother, overwhelmed with emotion for his love of his mother, he wanted to help her. He wanted to protect her. He wanted to save her from herself. Only, with his incestuous desire for her getting in his way of ordering her to get dressed, he didn't know how to save his mother from herself or from him. +Overwhelmed with incestuous lust for his mother, putting his sexual needs over her need for psychiatric help, he wanted to make love to her. He wanted to fuck her. He wanted to make his mother is sexy bitch who'd give him hot sex anytime he wanted to have hot sex. Maybe now that she was already naked, giving her a real need to see a shrink, he could at least have sex with her before having her see a psychiatrist. +Showing his mother how he truly felt about her, embarrassed by it yet excited by it, he could already feel his huge erection poking his mother in her soft belly through his jeans. Then, he did what he's always wanted to do and what he's done through her jeans or through her panty when lifting her short skirt when she's drunk and sleeping. He slowly dropped his hand down to feel the round, firmness of his mother's naked ass. He looked in her big, blue eyes as if to ask her permission and she gave him a smile and a nod as if giving him the go ahead to feel her full breasts and finger her nipples. +* * * * * +Even though we still don't know why his mother is standing there naked, being that we're now so engrossed in the story of a naked mother allowing her son to kiss her while touching and feeling her naked body, we don't care. Especially those readers who have mothers that they'd like to fuck, they imagined themselves with their naked mothers. Especially those readers who prefer pornography over erotica, they're now more interested with what mother and son does than they are with why the mother stripped herself naked and is standing in front of her son without her clothes in the first place. +Is Johnny going to bend his mother over the kitchen table and fuck her from behind like a dog or is he going to give her shoulder a gentle push as his subtle hint for her to fall to her knees to suck him? Is Maureen going to allow her son to make love to her? Will she suck her son? Being that we now know who the characters are and have already bonded with them somewhat, we are more interested to know what it is they are about to do than why the mother is naked. +* * * * * +""Talk?"" +""Yes, we need to talk Johnny,"" she said. +As if lost in a video game, as if he was texting on his cell phone, or playing on his gaming pad, her buttons to her erogenous zones, his thumbs and index fingers worked her erect nipples. As if she wasn't even there but for her naked body, more engrossed in her naked body than in her words or even why she was standing there naked, he continued feeling his mother's tits while pulling, turning, and twisting her nipples. +""Talk about what mother?"" +""About the birds and the bees,"" she said with smugness as she looked down to watch his fingers deftly fingering her nipples while quivering with the sexual excitement that he was giving her. +His fingers made her nipples so hard. His fingers, without even touching her pussy, obvious by the way that she was squirming in the way of a grasshopper rubbing it's legs together, already made her so wet. +""The birds and the bees, mother? I don't understand,"" he said. +""Yes, the birds and the bees,"" she said. ""We need to talk about sex."" +Momentarily, he stopped fingering her nipples to look up at her with confusion before returning to touch and feel her breasts and before continuing to finger her nipples. A longtime sexual fantasy of wanting to touch her tits while fingering her nipples, he loved his mother's big breasts. Always trying to sneak a peak of her breasts with down nightgown views of her tits, now that she allowed him to touch her, feel her, fondle her, and caress her breasts while fingering her nipples, he wasn't even listening to her. +""I know all about sex mother,"" he finally said snidely. +Normally whenever she was drunk and he inappropriately touched and felt his mother through her clothes while putting her to bed, he always felt so wickedly guilty after for taking sexual advantage of her being drunk. Yet, now that she was naked and with her inviting him to see her naked and touch her while naked, too sexually excited to feel guilty, he didn't care. With her already naked, he couldn't wait to climb in bed with her naked too. +""I don't think you do know all about sex,"" she said with as much attitude as he gave her when he told her that he knows all about sex. +""Why do you say that mother?"" +Willing to play her game so long as he could have his horny way with her beautiful breasts, her erect nipples, and her naked body, he continued touching her and feeling her where no son should ever touch and feel his mother. +""I found my panties beneath your pillow,"" she said stiff arming him away from her to pick up her panties from the kitchen counter. +To be continued... + +" +366,How to Get Your Characters Naked,sack,How To,2006-07-03,2006-07-03,2022-01-04 08:31:30,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-get-your-characters-naked,The fine art of undressing is just that.,"['Nudity', 'Stripping', 'Underwear', 'Undressing']",4.37,"After having read hundreds, maybe thousands of Literotica stories over the years one nearly universal flaw has become increasingly apparent: the way the characters undress is not handled as well as it could be. Either clothes are dispensed with in one sentence, or the seduction description is sparse or otherwise unsatisfactory. The purpose of this little essay is to give newbie and experienced writers alike some suggestions on how to go from fully clothed to the opposite. Whenever possible, I will give specific examples to ""flesh out"" (groan!) my points. +1\. Don't rush it! +This could be interpreted as common sense, but as my wise grandmother once said, ""common sense isn't very common!"" I am amazed by the number of stories where clothes apparently take themselves off, and we aren't talking about the ""Non-Human"" category here! Almost all readers appreciate some sort of seduction, teasing, or gradual turning of the screw, so why disappoint in this critical area? Here is a typical example of a boring undressing description: +""They removed their undies quickly and lay back on the bed."" +WOW! I'd hate to read a story by this author about paint drying. Now, here's a more drawn out, detailed version: +""Gary slowly approached Linda trying to conceal the obscene bulge in the right leg of his baby blue boxers. He tenderly rubbed her aroused breasts through her stark white bra, while attempting to unhook the back snaps. Linda smiled and helped him in this daunting task, until finally the skimpy garment fluttered down to her feet. Gary then plunged his hand down Linda's satin teal panties, feeling her moist bush and the heat down there. He pushed the sexy garment down one delicious inch at a time, delighting as his fingers massaged her jet black cunny hairs. When the panties fell to Linda's feet, she quickly stepped out of them. Pushing Gary's hand away for a moment, she outlined the tent in his boxers, slowly pressing his engorged prick toward the center fly slit. He winced as his fat prick spread the fly agonizingly slowly, grunting loudly as Linda flicked her tongue against the wide mushroom head. When the 8 inch monster finally worked its way through the center opening, Linda laughed at the comical sight and unexpectedly pushed Gary's engorged tool back into his boxers. He grunted as she suddenly pulled them down, causing his prick to hit his stomach with a loud ""thwack""!"" +While that paragraph is not going to win a writing award, it does at least give the reader a visual illustration of exactly what is going on. In the excellent stories of Charles Petersunn, which I highly recommend, this undressing process sometimes takes 3 literotica pages!! Don't worry about being too descriptive...in the inadequate medium of writing, one has to be as explicit as possible for maximum impact, whether you are writing a ""stroke story"" or a romantic novel. +2\. Don't forget articles of clothing or who you are writing for. +In the Literotica world, hardly anyone wears underwear or socks. The other scenario, which is common with heterosexual male authors, is that female undergarments are described to the last detail, while the male figures consistently go commando. My guess is that at least 40% of Literotica readers are women/gay men who would appreciate knowing exactly how the man is undressed and what he is wearing in the underwear department. Yes, you can make taking off shoes and socks detailed too, even in the most mundane situations. For example: +""Lynn couldn't believe she was undressing a real nerd. Staring at his ""Walmart Special"" sneakers, she noticed they had two little flaps which looked to be velcroed on one side. Trying not to giggle, she pulled the flaps away as Dilbert pulled his feet out of the faded navy blue footwear. Expecting the tiny white ankle socks 99% of teenage boys wear, Lynn was rather surprised to see high black dress socks. She tickled the soles of Dilbert's feet as he giggled like a 10 year old schoolgirl. Then, she quickly rolled down each sock at a time, staring up his polyester cut off shorts which had legs that were far too wide for him. As she had predicted, Dilbert wore little boy white jockey briefs that were already punched out by his stiffening member."" +Some people might argue that such details are not really necessary and they don't want to hear about Dilbert's dumb shoes. Yet, I maintain that as an author, you need to constantly paint vivid pictures of your characters. Dilbert is a nerd, and his clothes have to reinforce that image. As you write about undressing, constantly read back short sections to yourself to see if YOU can visualize the picture and action in your mind. If you can't, imagine how confused the reader is going to be. Try to consistently describe the underclothing of both sexes, and please don't ever use the word ""undies"". It sounds like a term a non-English speaker would employ after consulting a translation dictionary. Need some synonyms? Consider the following: +Women: panties, boy shorts, boxer shorts, briefs, bikinis, bloomers, knickers, nightgowns, slips, teddies, bras. +Men: boxer shorts (trim and full cut), briefs, tangas, bikinis, jockstraps, boxer briefs, wife beaters, crew necks, V-necks, union suits. +Of course, there are many other slang underwear terms but this should be enough to get you started! +3\. Use all the senses during the undressing scene. +Writing is a terribly inadequate medium. Besides having to provide the reader with an alluring visual image, the writer needs to use ALL five senses for maximum impact. That this is almost never done makes it worthy of discussion. To relate the senses to an undressing/seduction scenario: +a. What does the fabric of her panties FEEL like? Are they silky, cotton, nylon, or satin? What does he do when you touch his balls through his briefs? Or nuzzle his cock through his boxers? What is her reaction when you tickle her nipples through her bra? Or work two fingers up the back of her panties? +b. What does her pussy SMELL like? Is it pungent, sweet, or something else? How would you describe the smell of his body? Salty? Locker Room? Powerful? What is the aroma of her panties? Faint Perfume? Funky? A French Whorehouse? +c. What does his cock and cum TASTE like? Is it salty, gooey, or faintly reminiscent of almonds? What drink or liquid are you reminded of as you eat her out? Salt Water? Stale Orange Juice? Cough Syrup? +d. What sounds do you HEAR during the undressing act? Gasps, grunts, groans, giggles? How about screams, howling, or some choice cuss words? The moment of orgasm (with or without clothing) is a critical one. Some authors like to use such chains as ""ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."" Personally, they turn me on but others see them as merely amateurish. +e. What does the clothing LOOK like? Are his boxers tapered, baggy, tented, or faded? Are her panties cut-out, peppermint pink, or granny bloomers? Don't forget pants and dresses as well. Is he wearing Dickies, khakis, or tight jeans? Is her dress a mini-skirt, knee length or folded like origami? Again, writing is such an inadequate medium don't worry about overdoing the description. Chances are someone, somewhere will get turned on by an added detail you thought was trivial. +4\. Continue the foreplay AFTER they get naked. +Sure foreplay in underwear is fun, and I have devoted entire stories to just that topic. However, I have read too many Literotica submissions where all the characters do after they get naked is put tab A into slot B. That is one option of many and ideally can be prolonged in the manner of chinese water torture. Premature ejaculation is always disappointing, but Premature Copulation is nearly as bad. Consider the following: +""When they were finally naked, Greg quickly plunged his hard dick into her waiting gash."" +Ho-hum. What's for dinner? +Now for another version: +""As her sexy panties slowly fell to the rug, Greg got on his knees, taking in the luscious sight of Pam's shaved bush. He stuck his tongue down her honeypot and instantly made contact with her ultra sensitive clit head. She moaned sharply in complete ecstasy as Greg's skillful tongue played her clit like a virtuoso pianist tickling the ivories.

Don't tell him about what you want to do. Instead, do describe exactly what you would be doing if you were there, just like an adult version of Just Pretend. +Take a deep breath and plan on simply texting one part of the story at a time.

""Please don't stop..."" +Ready? Set? Cut And Paste This Perfect Blowie: +💋 Hey baby, I have been doing a little research on naughty texting. Do you mind if I practice on you? +💋 I want to start by giving you a virtual massage, I can't wait to run my hands over your body. I love how your muscles feel when my hands are all oily and slippery. (Bonus Turn On Tip: If you want to really get his attention, mention that you would like to add some body sliding, skin to skin, full body stroking if he behaves himself.) +💋 If you were here right now, I would take your hand and lead you away from your work. I have a table set up and ready for you. +💋 I unbutton your shirt, never breaking eye contact, slipping my cool fingers under the smooth fabric of your shirt, feeling your hot skin underneath. +💋 I reach in to brush your nipples with the back of my hand. A rush of turn on hits me as I feel you stiffen against my skin. +(Bonus Turn On Tip: Notice when your turn on surges as you cut and paste these texts into your own text stream. Think of it as if you and your partner are musical instruments and when y'all harmonize, the mutual turn on may swell and take over at anytime.) +💋 I slide your shirt off your shoulders and it falls to the floor. Reaching down I unbuckle your belt and pull it with a snap from your belt loops. +💋 Unsnap your pants, I whisper. +💋 (Bonus Turn On Tip: You can make him wait any time you want. You can't help it if your battery goes dead or you have to take a call at work, right?) I hook my pinkie finger in the waist band of your boxers and pull it out for a peek. Mmmm, I say, licking my lips. +💋 You race to take off the rest of your clothes as I turn to walk toward the massage table. Your eyes are glued to the shape of my ass silhouetted in the vanilla silk chemise hugging my curves. +💋 Fuck, I love your eyes on me. (Bonus Turn On Tip: If it is hard for you to talk dirty, texting dirty is a great option. Guys generally think it is hot when a girl curses, even in text!) +💋 You lie on the table face up, your arousal beautiful before me. ""Not so fast."" I whisper, face down please. You protest but comply, adjusting yourself on the black silk sheet beneath. +💋 I have your favorite massage oil and I can't wait to rub your back and shoulders. I lean over and my bare breasts just graze the smooth oily skin between your shoulder blades. +💋 I feel my nipples stiffen as they skim your back, you moan when you realize I have taken off my robe. +💋 I crawl up to straddle you and feel your body rising up under me, I know you want to turn over and kiss me, but I won't let you. It is my time, my turn to choose the time. I know exactly how hard you are. +💋 My fingers separate as start to stroke your sides and I let them slip just under your hip bones. I feel you raise your hips as I stretch my fingers in so close to you but stopping just short. +💋 Should I go on? (Bonus Turn On Tip: If it is your turn on, you can ask for him to call you Mistress at this point. Make sure it is clear that you are in charge of this blowie.) +💋 I slide off to one side and tell you to turn over now. +💋 I crawl up until I can finally kiss you. I am on top and I am almost touching your lips so gently with mine. My mouth aching for the taste of your skin, I refuse to let myself have what I crave and I pull away. (Bonus Turn On Tip: Make him wait. The hotter it feels, the slower you go.) +💋 You reach hungry for a deeper kiss and I lean away...teasing you. +💋 I move backwards, kissing your chin...down your neck, my breast brushing your chest as I move down. +💋 My thirsty tongue now hungrily circles each nipple licking, nipping at the skin on your chest and I let one hand drift between your legs. +💋 I cradle your balls in my palm and knead them gently as I kiss and lick my way down your belly, letting out little squeals and moans as I go. +💋 Your fingers wrap themselves in my hair and you pull me close. I love when you pull my hair. +💋 I stop and look up at you and whisper, ""I can't wait to f-k you with my mouth."" (You might just get a whimper at this point.) +💋 I move slowly, sliding my skin against yours, kissing down your lower belly letting my cheek rest against your stiff self and look up at you. ""What do you want"", I whisper looking deeply into your eyes. +💋 I wrap your swollen manhood (fill in your favorite street name if you wish) in my hand and slowly slip my lips around and over it. My tongue moves slowly under the ridge and around the tip in a figure 8. +💋 Next I trace my lips with your stiffness and then slowly take you into my mouth. I love how it feels to stretch my lips over my teeth so I can take you in. +💋 All the way in and then pulling away slowly with a twist and then back again. Your one hand stroking my back and shoulders and pulling my hair with the other, I shiver in pure delight. +💋 Lying down next to you, I run the outside of my teeth up and down the underside of your hardness. I moan in my throat at how good it feels to lick and kiss you as I fondle you and tickle the soft skin of your smooth thighs. +💋 I kiss and nip (carefully) down your belly, and kiss and nibble my way toward the soft skin down under. The sound of your whimpers and moans go straight to my lady bits. Such a turn on to know how hot you are. (You are hot, aren't you? LOL) +💋 I slowly work my way back up, hand on the base of your straining manhood. As I suck and glide I feel you straining to hold back your orgasm, wishing you could make it last but needing release. I hear you panting and calling my name. +💋 I speed up my hand, twisting, sliding up and down, at the same time I am sucking and swirling the tip. At last I feel your body convulse as release finally hits you. I know to be so still while I hold you in my mouth. In time I feel you soften and whisper my name. +💋 I crawl up to rest in your arms. You kiss me tenderly and I feel your hands stroking my back and hips. We snuggle together and breathe in the warm summer air. Sleep will come soon. +It may take a little practice, but even if you are super shy, you will find texting a guy a virtual blowie can be a real turn-on, especially when you relax and enjoy his pleasure. The good news is that you can't mess up here. Even if it is your first time, he will be over the moon being pleasured like this and appreciate your cyber oral sex efforts. +Bonus Turn On Tip: If you are super shy about the whole idea of oral sex, don't worry. Your partner will be patient with you, I promise. Even reading this story a few times can help you get used to the language and ideas. Personally, I like calling a blowie a blowie. It feels sexier to me. +Many men adore this kind of pleasure in a text scenario. Men tell me that their solo sex is boring and no fun. Can you clearly see how you can fix that little dilemma? +Learning to text him a blowie is an easy way to please a man from a distance with a most intimate text session. +First timers, give it a try and let me know how you do.

I happen to be on the worshipping end, and I love paying homage to what, in Tantra, is called the Lingam (pronounced ling-ahm)—which loosely translates into ""Wand of Light."" In the physical sense, it is what we might call the cock, prick, dick, etc. The Tantra definition expands the view of the male genitals beyond the physical—the masculine is a pure laser beam of consciousness, raw energy and single-minded focus. A Lingam Massage is about worshipping that consciousness, and giving a man space to relax into his body, and expand his consciousness to receive even greater pleasure. +This type of massage can also help men work through sexual trauma, or negative sexual conditioning, given a massaging partner with enough gentle patience. Orgasm is never the goal of the Lingam massage, although it happens sometimes, and it is often much more intense than normal orgasms. The true goal is to massage the Lingam, testicles, perineum and ""sacred spot"" (more on that later—it's the masculine equivalent to the feminine g-spot) to encourage a man to explore the edges of his ability to receive pleasure. + **Preparation** You can bathe or shower together first. Make sure you both void before starting, as you won't want to have to interrupt the flow if one of you has to use the bathroom. +You need a quiet, preferably dim space, with a bed, or a futon mattress on the floor, or even just pillows. You can drape a sheet over them, in case you spill any oil. The temperature in the room should be a little warmer than normal because you are both going to be nude, so you may want to turn up the heat. Lighting many candles in the room also helps generate heat and keep the room dim. You will want to make sure that you have an open time frame where you won't be disturbed, preferably a few hours. Remember to turn off all of your phones and pagers, and if you live with others, you can even put a ""Do Not Disturb"" sign on the door. +Music is good to set the mood, but be sure it's something where _all_ of the tracks are appropriate. There's nothing so jarring as a discordant piece of music suddenly playing when you're trying to relax. Make sure your CD player has a ""repeat"" function, so you don't have to stop to push ""play"" again and again. +Your lubricants and oils should be somewhere within easy reach. Try to get spill proof bottles, and use plastic rather than glass. (Knocking over a bottle of massage oil and breaking it makes a huge mess and goes a long way toward ruining the mood!) +If you are giving this massage, you should remind your partner that their communication with you is key. Make sure that they feel comfortable making requests or comments. He should know that this is about his comfort and pleasure, and if he needs a break, or if the room is too hot, or the touch is too light or too hard, he can and should speak up and say something. You can often encourage him by asking ""Is this too hard?"" or ""Is the temperature ok?"" +The first thing you should do is breathe together. Breath is the way we make love with the divine. Look into each other's eyes and breathe, deep into your belly. You should be sitting face-to-face (or standing, if you prefer). You can hold hands, or hold onto each other, whatever feels good to you both. + **The Lingam Massage** The massage begins with the man lying on his back, usually with something under his hips to lift them a little—a pillow (cover this with a towel) or a cushion. He can place a pillow under his head if he likes, or not, whichever is more comfortable. Make sure he is relaxed and truly comfortable before you begin, because he is going to be in this position a long time. +You should sit between the man's legs, cross-legged, with his legs apart, knees up and slightly bent. You should continue looking into his eyes and breathe with him. Remind him, often, of his breath. If you find he is holding his breath, you can place your hand on his lower belly and remind him to breathe from that space, to ""fill his belly"" with his breath. Practice this a few times before you begin. +Lingam massage begins with a slow, sensual massage of the other parts of the body. Massage his legs, his chest, his abdomen, his arms. This is a long, slow process. Advance the massage slowly toward the inner thighs and pelvis, until he is breathing deeply from his belly, and his body has no more tension and is fully relaxed. +Then, and only then, should you approach the Lingam. This is a sacred act, and a powerful one. You should ask his permission to touch his ""Wand of Light."" You can simply say the words, ""May I touch your Lingam?"" or you can more formally ask, ""May I touch your Wand of Light?"" Whatever reaction or response he has is normal. Take it in stride, whatever it is. +If he gives you permission, pour a small quantity of _very good quality_ massage oil or water-based lubricant on the Lingam and testicles. The quality of the oil is important. This area of the body is very sensitive, and the skin can get raw quickly if the oil isn't high quality. Rub the oil into the skin, and then begin at the top of the inner thighs, in the crease where his legs meet the pelvis floor. Work along the connecting bone and muscles, releasing tension as you go. Spend a great deal of time here, rubbing the oil into the skin. Use slow, steady motions. +Remember, too, to ask him what he is feeling—is it too hard, too soft? Too fast, too slow? Let his pleasure be your guide. You don't need to have a conversation (and probably shouldn't—it might take him out of his body) but definitely keep communicating during the massage. Look into his eyes, and keep breathing with him. +Next, massage above the Lingam, on the pubic bone. Rock your hand over this place, feeling the bone beneath the muscle and skin. Then, move on to the scrotum, gently (and I say gently, and I _mean_ gently!) pulling and kneading his testicles. You will need to pay very close attention to his responses here, and encourage him to tell you what is just right for him. Some men are more sensitive than others in this area, and can't stand to have their testicles touched at all, while others require a harder touch. Experiment, starting light and moving toward hard, rather than the other way around. +Then, move your hand down to massage his perineum. This is the area between the testicles and anus, and can be very sensitive. Pay special attention here, circling and pulling at the tissues. This is a very overlooked and neglected part of the male anatomy, and most men find great pleasure in having it stimulated. You can use downward strokes from his Lingam to his anus, or a circular motion. Vary your speed and pattern and ask for feedback often. +Now you can move your hand to touch his Lingam. As you do so, imagine you are making love to a god, some divine being, and this is the source of his energy and light, this hard shaft in your hand. Worship him as you begin to stroke the shaft with varying pressure and speed. Let him feel all your devotion and love in your movements. He is your god here on Earth, and this is your opportunity to show him that. +If, at any point, your man seems close to ejaculation, you need to back off immediately and let things cool down before beginning again. He will have to be more aware of his own bodily sensations during this time, and should be giving you feedback. If he thinks he is close to ejaculating, he should tell you, so you can slow your movements. If he passes the point of no return, that's ok. If he is _very_ close, but not quite there, you may be able to hold off his ejaculation by squeezing the tip of his Lingam between your thumb and forefinger. You need to squeeze very firmly, and hold it for about thirty seconds. Encourage him to take deep, belly breaths while you do this and it may delay him. +Now, as you are massaging the shaft, begin to gently squeeze his Lingam at the base with your right hand, and pull up, sliding completely off. Then do the same with your left hand—squeeze his Lingam at the base, and pull up, sliding completely off. Then do this again with your right, then your left, and so on. Then, after a while, change directions—slide alternating hands from the top down to the base. +You should pay close attention to the tip or head of his Lingam. Hold his Lingam by the tip and gently shake it back and forth. Then thoroughly massage the head, cupping it in your palm and making a ""juicing"" motion (like you are juicing a lemon or an orange) around and around. +Another thing about Lingam massage—because it's not necessarily about achieving orgasm, he may not be fully erect all the time. That's perfectly normal, and in Tantra, it's actually preferable. Women experience the same rise and fall of arousal, too, like waves—it just doesn't have such tangible measurements. Let him stiffen or wane, as his pleasure increases or decreases. The more he does this, the more in tune he will be with his own arousal. +Move from the Lingam to the testicles to the perineum and back again, paying close attention to his response. A man can learn to master his ejaculations more effectively through this technique, as you massage him and he learns to identify the cues his body sends that orgasm is imminent. Remember to keep backing off if he gets too close to ejaculating, moving your hands to a more remote area, such as his perineum or even his thighs for a while. +The next place to explore is the male ""Sacred Spot."" You can do this one of two ways. The first way is to locate the spot halfway between the testicles and anus that creates a small indentation, about the size of a dime. You should be gentle, here, (go light at first, and increase pressure as he likes, that's always a good rule) but begin to push inward with your finger. He will feel a sort of pressure, and it may even be painful at first. +The other way to access the sacred spot is through the anus. Some men are sensitive about having anything inserted and don't want to have it done this way, and that's fine. If he is open to it, you can insert the index finger of your left hand (use lubrication!) slowly and gently into the anus about an inch or so. Then crook the finger in a ""come here"" gesture, and you will feel the prostate gland. This feels good when massaged, and some men like to have the Lingam massaged at the same time. +Like a woman's G-spot (her sacred spot) this can hold strong emotions that may be released as you are massaging him. Whatever comes up, it's normal, just let him experience the wave of emotions without trying to comfort or rescue him. Keep pressing there, allowing him to release whatever he needs to. +The male sacred spot is also another way to help control ejaculation. If he starts to feel close, you can decrease stimulation on the Lingam and increase stimulation in the sacred spot, either anally or on the perineum, and it should help decrease his immediate need for orgasm. +If he wants to ejaculate at the end of the massage, that's fine. If he doesn't, that's fine, too. If he does choose to ejaculate, keep reminding him to take deep, deep breaths, even during his orgasm. It will probably be more intense than most orgasms he has experienced. When he feels complete, slowly remove your hands. Ask for his feedback—some men do like to snuggle afterward, but some would rather drift off into a meditative state. Let him do whichever he prefers. +I love to worship a man's Lingam, devoting my whole self to his pleasure, feeling the power in him as he learns to master his own ejaculations. I hope that you can give your man your devotion and love through this massage, and show him how much you worship him and his ""Wand of Light."" +\--------------- + **Bibliography** +1.)

I assume you can already give a good massage, so this won't focus on the technical details of the massage, but rather how to heighten and eroticize the experience. There will also be some short vignettes for the prurient and perverted to read, even if uninterested in giving massages themselves. Enjoy! + **Step 1: Set-Up** +The important thing to remember about the ambiance for a massage is that it should be like correct grammar and spelling. You're not trying to have the recipient focus on the music, the light, or anything else. It should simply be there to coddle the senses so that they can focus on touch, so that they aren't jarred out of the experience by anything distracting. Low light and soft music that barely registers upon the listener are best: white noise, nature sounds, and calming instrumental music that flows in one ear and out the other without leaving any sort of impression. Scents are good, as well, but again, should be only enough to keep the mind focused on the massage, rather than drawing attention to the scent itself. +You'll need to pick an oil for the massage. I like sweet almond oil, myself, but you'll have to pick something that works for you. I'd avoid a scented oil, just because it can be a bit strong and distracting. I've got a strawberry scented bottle of oil, but using it just makes the room smell like a dessert and I get hungry, and you don't want to be hungry while giving a massage because you might bite the wrong thing. +Make sure that the room is a good temperature. You want your recipient to be comfortably warm, especially for any times when their towel is off their body. If the room's too cold, they may have a difficult time showing their excitement. If possible, it can be a good idea to warm up the towels beforehand. Just toss them in the dryer for a bit. They won't keep their heat long, but if the room's a bit chillier than you like, it can certainly help. +I usually use two towels. A larger one to drape the body, and a smaller one to cover the eyes after their face is massaged. One advantage to having a second towel is that, with their eyes covered, your own movements are more likely to be a surprise. People are also less bashful if they can't see you, so your recipient will be more likely to be willing to let you work your magic. Additionally, the sensory deprivation will amplify certain other sensations. Be sure you have everything you need in advance so there won't be any interruptions. + **Step 2: Build-Up** +For the actual massage itself, a lot of teasing is very important. You want to heighten their excitement and expectations before anything truly explicit actually occurs. They should be aching for your touch, for the relief that only you can bring them, long, _long_ before you intend to actually succor them. +While massaging a man's thighs, go as far up as possible. You'll find yourself brushing against their scrotum, but technically you're only massaging their leg, so there's a nice bit of plausible deniability there if things aren't yet certain. Reaching under their upper leg, too, is a pleasing sensation for them. +One place I especially like to tease is the perineum and surrounding areas while the recipient is still face-down. Find an excuse to massage his tight ass, such as how many muscles there are in that region, if you need one. While you're massaging lower, let your thumbs drift to the area between his balls and ass and gently knead there with your thumbs and knuckles. It's a very unique feeling, and he'll love that exquisite combination of vulnerability and pleasure that it brings him. +Once he's on his back, the face is an intimate area to massage. You can linger on his lips, rest your chin on his forehead, gaze into his eyes in case he opens them, things like that. It's also a natural time to compliment his appearance, telling him how you never noticed what a handsome face he has. If he has a beard, let your fingers run through it. +As you massage his broad, manly chest, be sure to pay attention to his nipples. Just a quick flick or two is enough to tease and get his attention, although you can massage his pectoral muscles for longer and just ensure your fingertips rub them especially. I think the stomach is under-rated for teasing possibilities. In my experience, your fingers under the towel, waltzing down his abdomen, will make him tingle in all the right ways. Wander down his happy trail and through his pubic hair, even bumping against his shaft while you caress his stomach. If you're particularly well-endowed, stand above his head while you massage his stomach, and lean down so that your plump, round breasts rest gently upon his face. It'll be a memory of mammaries he won't soon forget. +When you massage his arms, find a good place to rest his hands. His arm will be totally in your control, so take advantage. If you're quite forward, you can guide his hand to your breast while you stroke his arms. Otherwise, you might guide it to your stomach or hip or thigh or cheek, depending on what you want to highlight and your relative heights. +And lastly, the thighs are the best place to tease, if only for their proximity to your true prize. As before, go as high up as you desire. By now, he's hopefully rock hard, just waiting for your touch. If his towel is still covering him, you might move it just to expose one thigh, leaving it in the middle, where his hard shaft's eagerness might be enough to push the towel off of itself, exposing it to your ministrations. If his cock is exposed and up, a nice trick is to massage the thigh opposite yourself. That is, if you're standing on his left side, use that position to massage his right thigh, so that his hardness is between you and your goal. It's a wonderful opportunity to brush against his manhood with your hands and wrists oh-so-innocently. + **Part 3: Climax** +And finally, it's the main event. I like to categorize the various ways to finish things into four broad categories. I'll explain each a bit and include a bit of a vignette to demonstrate. If I were to plot these on a graph because I'm a math nerd, the two axes would be his pleasure and your pleasure. Both of these are just purported pleasure, though. Obviously, in all these cases, hopefully both you and the recipient are thoroughly enjoying everything. But the difference lies in, outwardly, who is this supposed to primarily benefit? + **The Nonchalant** +One possibility is to approach the matter as nonchalantly as possible. Simply treat his cock as though it were any other limb. This technique is low on both your and his purported pleasure, because if an orgasm happens, it either wasn't intentional, or it wasn't a big deal. You were just rubbing and _oops_ , or you saw a friend with some stiffness and you were there with a helping hand. It wasn't sexual at all. Just a few good pumps to get rid of that last bastion of stress, and all that tension came squirting out. +If you're giving a nonchalant happy ending, you probably won't even mention it. Once he's hard, you'll just move the towel aside and pump away casually until he finishes. Or you may not even give proper strokes, just massage it gently as you would his arm or leg, squeezing and rubbing, until all his stress goes away. When it is time for him to cum, you can make sure there isn't a big mess by aiming his cock either between his legs or by pinning it against his stomach so it all just goes on to his abdomen. The latter might ruin his orgasm a little bit, but it's not like that's a big deal, after all. +Or if you're doing it more as a friend because this sort of thing isn't a big deal at all, you might ask him if he wants you to take care of it, and once he inevitably agrees, give him a quick finish so he can focus on the rest of the massage. But it certainly isn't anything to make a big fuss over. Just finish him off, wipe him up, and continue with the massage. His cock is another limb, no more special than any other. + _Example Vignette_ +Her hands expertly massaged my thighs, kneading my aching muscles. And yet, despite how good it felt, I couldn't help but wish that she would notice my _other_ aching need. My rock hard cock throbbed under the towel, apparently invisibly, despite its prominence. But Beatrix worked silently and patiently away at my legs. Maybe she, like me, wasn't quite sure how to address it. She had to have noticed it, after all. It was impossible not to. What was she thinking? +Was she simply hoping it would go away? Was she disgusted? Flattered? Annoyed? Aroused? I wished I could hear her thoughts right now and get an idea of what was inside her head. +She finished my right leg and moved to my leg, her hands squeezing, her forearms pressing, and all my tension leaving me. I just sighed deeply and closed my eyes. If nothing else happened, this had still been an excellent massage, and I could always jack off as soon as I got home. Or as soon as she left the room, I reconsidered, my cock begging me for relief. Her hands left my leg, and I prepared for the massage to end. +But she wasn't done yet. +I felt her hand land on my thigh and slide up...and up...and _up_... I swallowed. Her hand snuck under my towel and wrapped around my cock without any formalities. ""You need me to take care of this real quick?"" Beatrix asked. +""Sure,"" I said, too thrilled to quibble over her 'real quick' comment. +She nodded, a neutral expression on her face. She pumped away, steadily, unhurriedly, with the same firm grip she had used on my arms and legs. I couldn't help but groan, my pleasure building as she stroked my manhood. She pulled the towel down for easier access without missing a beat. I watched her hand move, her visage betraying no emotion. If she were enjoying herself, I couldn't tell. She had the same look as when she had been rubbing my arm: a look of focus, fixated on her work, but it was clearly just a task to be completed. +My hips bucked. Her hand felt amazing. I wanted this to last forever, yet I knew I couldn't last much longer. Already the familiar sensation of an approaching orgasm rose inside my loins. ""I'm going to cum if you keep doing that,"" I warned her. She simply moved the towel between my thighs and aimed my cock downwards. +I groaned as that pleasure exploded inside me. I trembled in her grip. My body released and my essence gushed out of me. Her hand kept pumping, eking out every last drop into the towel, ensuring my climax was as efficient as possible. As soon as my orgasm subsided, she released her grip. ""Better?"" she asked me. I nodded. ""Good."" + **The Tease** +My personal favorite is to be a tease. A Tease is doing this for her pleasure, not his, and doesn't really care whether or not he has a satisfying orgasm, or even any orgasm. He might just end the massage with blue balls, or a ruined orgasm, or if he's very lucky, he'll get a real orgasm, but only after you've thoroughly enjoyed making him squirm. +You'll graze your fingernails up his shaft, giving him just the barest caresses. You'll massage all around his package, your fingers exploring where his scrotum meets his thighs, and brushing through his pubic hair. You can even massage his perineum while he's on his back, forming your thumbs and forefingers into a diamond, your thumbs pressing against him below his balls, your forefingers on either side of his shaft, touching nothing sensitive, just reminding him that, at any moment, they could be. You'll use the towel to your advantage, keeping it draped over his cock, and then rubbing beneath it elsewhere, so the friction of the towel's motion relentlessly and torturously brushes against the head of his cock. He may even cum without you touching his shaft directly, if you can do it correctly. +You'll need to be very patient. He's going to want more than you're giving him, and by the end, he'll be begging for you, aching for your touch. Don't feel obligated to give it. If he wants to cum, he has hands, doesn't he? You can make him jack off for you while you watch, providing support both moral and physical, caressing his balls and thighs while he strokes away. + _Example Vignette_ +Her wrist bumped against my cock again. I gripped the sheets and tried to ignore it, but I found the task impossible. She was doing it deliberately. There she stood, to my right, while massaging my left thigh, my hard cock jutting towards the ceiling between us, and yet she refused to move to the other side of me, instead insisting on keeping my shaft between her and her task. Her little ""accidental"" brushes and nudges were more torturous than satisfying, enough to nudge me closer to orgasm without giving me any true pleasure or relief. +I wanted to ask Jenny to just finish me off. I wanted her to rub my cock against her pert, petite breasts and her pebble hard nipples, to engulf it with her plump lips, to take hold of my cock and give me some semblance of a real orgasm before I simply lost control and had a helpless, ruined jizz in front of her, but what little dignity I retained kept me from outright begging for it. She had to take pity on me eventually, didn't she? +One of her hands departed from my leg, tracing a trail up my thigh and towards my cock. For a moment, I thought I might be about to receive what I so dearly ached for. But alas! Her fingernails grazed up my trembling shaft, just barely touching, the lightest whisper of a caress, all the way up my cock, until they passed my head, and then she stopped and waited. My cock twitched, bringing a smirk to her face. A few moments later, she did it again, watching my erection for its reaction, ignoring the rest of me. It was evident that my cock was her goal and her toy, and the rest of me was superfluous. +My loins tingled and prickled. God, I knew I was close. I tried to distract myself and declined Latin nouns in my head, but another pass of the edges of her sharp nail up my shaft and my mind turned into _pulticulam_. She began to caress my uppermost thighs, her hands tracing the edge of my scrotum and pressing firmly into my thighs. +The pleasure inside me began to waver and topple. I knew nothing could stop what was about to happen. I reached out to grab her round, tight ass, but she dodged expertly. I grunted as my cock betrayed me and I came, helplessly, untouched, my cock flailing wildly, spurting cum as Jenny laughed uproariously, pulling her hands back to avoid the mess. +My orgasm ruined, my cock deflating, covered in my own semen, my arousal only intensified rather than satiated, Jenny looked from my mess to my face. ""Wow, just from your thighs, huh? That's almost impressive, Quickdraw."" She gave my tamed cock a playful pat. ""Good boy. Maybe next time you can last a little longer. What do you think?"" + **The Professional** +Another option is to approach it as a job to do. You may even negotiate beforehand, either as part of a roleplay or for real, depending on just how close you are. If you do ever need to negotiate with a man, I strongly recommend waiting until his hard, throbbing cock is in your hand. It gives you quite a bit of leverage. +Once you start, though, it's for his pleasure, not yours. To you, it's just a job. He might grab your ass roughly or firmly take hold of your tit while you stroke him to completion, and you just let him. The customer is always right, after all, regardless of where his hands wander. +Unlike the previous two techniques, which are pretty strictly hands only, the Professional can use other body parts, too: her mouth, her cunt, her tits, if nature has blessed her thusly, and so on. Try to get him to take a bit of a dominant role, giving instructions for you to follow. If he's a bit shy, you may need to prompt him a bit, but once your hand is wrapped around his cock, his imagination should begin flowing. +If your recipient is really into the whole happy ending massage kink, this offers a lot of opportunities for you to roleplay a bit. Asking him, ""Is this okay?"" as you massage various parts of his, negotiating for a payment before you stroke him off, acting like you're his side piece and making references to his girlfriend or wife, or faking a thick accent can all help with that. + _Example Vignette_ +""Please turn over,"" Indra instructed me. I did so, waiting for her to drape the towel back over me. But she didn't. She walked by my hips and stationed herself by my exposed crotch. She began to massage my thighs eagerly, her hands dancing within inches of my cock and balls. Her intention was immediately obvious. I grabbed her ass firmly in my hand, squeezing her plump, tight ass while she worked. She squeaked, but submitted. +It wasn't long before the twin sensations of her derriere in my palm and her hands so close to my cock brought me a full erection. She wrapped her hand loosely around my cock and asked me, ""Do you want me to massage her?"" +""Yes, please."" +""How much you pay?"" she asked, her hand lazily stroking my cock. +""What's the usual?"" I asked. I felt myself at a distinct disadvantage in this negotiation, what with my desperate eagerness on full display, yet I decided to try anyways. +""Sixty dollars."" +""Can you make it forty? Sixty's a bit much. My girlfriend'll notice."" +Another stroke of my cock. ""She won't find out, it's okay. Sixty?"" +I groaned. It was getting difficult to maintain my concentration and keep myself from finishing embarrassingly quickly. ""Fifty?"" I compromised. +Her grip tightened. ""Fifty."" Her hand quickened its pace. Her other hand delved between my thighs, found my balls, and caressed them in her palm, sending me into a state of erotic relaxation, my body surrendering to her touch while my cock was ready to blast off at any moment. My hand left her ass and reached to her chest. I grabbed her tit hard and squeezed roughly. ""This feel good?"" she inquired. +""Very,"" I panted. Her firm breast filled my hand, her lack of bra both noticed and appreciated, the plump flesh an invitation to squeeze and savor. +""Your cock is very handsome. Nice, big dick,"" she said, taking hold of it with both hands, sliding her hands up in alternating succession, as though she were pulling the rope to close the curtains at a theater, creating a sensation of an infinite stroke without beginning or end, pulling my pleasure right out of my body and into my cock where it collected and condensed into the beginnings of a orgasm. +I felt the end coming. I gripped her breast as my hips bucked involuntarily. She switched to one hand and pumped me fast and smooth and with a purposeful dedication, her hand massaging my balls to help me on my way. That ecstasy inside me exploded forth, my entire body shaking, quivering, as pure, intense pleasure coursed through me like tingling electricity. My cock spasmed, my cum gushed out of me, onto her hands and my crotch, covering us both in an ivory glisten. Her pumping slowed as my ejaculations weakened. She gave my balls a playful tap, as though checking that they were empty. Satisfied that no more was to be milked out of me right now, she got a warm, moist cloth and tenderly cleaned me up, gently wiping my cum from my body, leaving me clean and satisfied. +""Worth it,"" I whispered to myself. + **The Girlfriend** +However, you may prefer a more intimate approach. This technique is for both of your pleasure, and is the most romantic. Kiss frequently and everywhere. Use kisses in combination with your hands to massage his body: his face, his chest, his abdomen, his thighs, and his cock. +Making off, where you stroke his cock while kissing him passionately, is definitely encouraged. It's a lovely sensation, occupying both his lips and cock at the same time. You can do other combinations of carnal and romantic, too, like jerking him off with one hand while the other caresses his face lovingly. Having him finish inside you, either your mouth or your pussy, is strongly recommended, as well. +Be vocal. Be sweet. Tell him how much you adore him while you coax him to climax. Make sure he knows just how much you love him and how much you appreciate everything he does for you, and that this massage is his well- earned reward. Climb on top of him and guide his big, thick, hard cock between your lips and ride him, letting him stare at your jiggling breasts, until he empties his essence into your womb, and then describe in exquisite detail how good it felt. +Or you may prefer to take his shaft between your lips and bob your head until you can swallow every last drop of his delicious cum, locking eyes with him the entire time, holding his hands in yours so he can grip them tightly as his body convulses and his cock and balls pulsate as he surrenders to his orgasm. + _Example Vignette_ +Lauren kissed me deeply, our lips pressing against each other, sending tingles down my spine as her hand ministered to my cock, overwhelming me with disparately pleasurable sensations, romance and carnal lust both swelling inside me. Her lips detached from mine just long enough for her to gasp out, ""I love you,"" before returning to their osculations. +""You're the best thing in my life,"" I whispered back, my hand finding her soft, pliant heart and gently caressing her breast, her nipple stiff against my palm. I meant it, too. All I had had to do was mention how sore I was after our day of hiking and she had practically pushed me onto the bed so she could massage my aching muscles and make all my tension disappear. Of course, she had had an ulterior motive, but I wasn't complaining. +""Ready for your happy ending?"" she asked. +""This isn't already a happy ending?"" +She shook her head. ""Nope. This is just the happy beginning. Then there's going to be a happy second act, a happy rising action, a happy climax, a happy denouement, a happy sequel..."" she babbled on. +""Just...I'll take whatever's on the menu."" +She kissed my cheek. ""Good choice."" She climbed on top of me and guided my cock between her soft, smooth lips. I watched, entranced, as my manhood vanished inside of her and she began to rock herself back and forth on top of me, her quim gripping my cock with no intention of letting go. ""Put a baby in me,"" she begged. ""I want you to cum inside me."" +My cock throbbed from her words. I grabbed her hips and helped guide her movements. ""You mean it?"" +""Yesssss,"" she hissed. ""I want it so bad, you have no idea. I want your baby inside me. Make me yours. Make me a mommy."" +I needed no further encouragement. I squeezed her ass and helped her ride my cock, eager to cum inside her, to fill her womb with my seed and essence, to mark her very body as belonging to me. Her firm, pert breasts bounced above me, her nipples hard, her long, red hair tumbling down her body like rivulets of fire. +""I'm going to cum soon,"" I told her. +Without a word, she leaned down close to me, our chests together, our hearts beating as one as I wrapped my arms around her and held her close. My cock pulsated and throbbed as I came inside her tight, fertile cunt. ""I can feel it,"" she whispered against my ear. I filled her, flooding her womb with my passion, pushing my manhood as deeply into her as I could, penetrating her, impaling her with my tool in an attempt to ensure success. All of my pleasure, all of my physical bliss, flowed through my body and into her. +Once I had finished, I rolled her over. ""Don't let a single drop come out,"" I ordered her sternly, kissing her nose. ""You just lay there like that. I'll bring you some blackberries and hot cocoa. Sound good?"" +""Sounds good."" + **Part 4: Clean-Up** +But you're not done yet. If you're not planning to clean up orally, licking up that creamy proof of a job well done before safely storing it away in your stomach, savoring the salty satisfaction of every last drop, I'd recommend having a warm, moist face cloth available to clean him up. It's an intimate, tender touch, and afterwards you can cover him back up with the towel and finish the massage. +Once you're finished, give him some privacy to get dressed. I usually make sure to let him know just how much I enjoyed the massage. Feel free to set his next appointment, as well. I'm certain he'll be eager to do so. Enjoy yourselves and have fun! +* * * * * + _Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoyed the story. Please be sure to vote and leave a comment. I'd love to hear what you think!

As a woman, if you have never had one, I highly recommend it! I discovered places in myself that I didn't knew existed, deepened my connection with my partner, and learned how to be the receiver of pleasure in the moment. It is an amazing process, and I hope that I can convey to you the profound power of this sacred act, so that you can learn how to give the woman in your life this kind of experience. +""Yoni"" (pronounced yo-knee) is another word for vagina—but its meaning goes far beyond the physical. The word was first mentioned in the Kama Sutra, and its meaning is loosely translated as ""sacred altar"" or ""sacred space."" When spoken of in tantric terms, the Yoni becomes the sacred doorway to the Goddess, an aspect of the divine. This was a place to worship, and the goal of the Yoni massage it just that—to worship the sacred temple that is Yoni. +The feminine is all about pleasure, and this massage helps a woman tap into and understand her deep connection to bodily pleasure. This massage isn't so much sexual as it is sensual, designed to promote relaxation and openness in a woman. Orgasm isn't the goal, although orgasm may occur during a Yoni massage, and it may be more intense and expansive and more deeply satisfying than other orgasms. +The person giving a Yoni massage is a witness to the beauty of all that is feminine. You, as the massager, are worshiping at the sacred temple of Yoni. Remembering this and connecting to the Great Feminine through your partner throughout the massage will make it a more powerful experience for both of you. Touch her as you would touch a goddess—with reverence, awe, respect, and great love. + **Preparation** +Bathing together is a beautiful ritual to partake in before a Yoni massage. You can start your process of worshipping her long before you touch her Yoni. Use essential oils in the bath—lavender is a wonder relaxer. Wash her hair for her. Dry her body off after the bath, and moisturize her skin. Make sure you both void before starting, as you won't want to have to interrupt the flow if one of you has to use the bathroom. +You need a quiet, preferably dim space, with a bed, or a futon mattress on the floor, or even pillows. You can drape a sheet over them, in case you spill any oil. The temperature in the room should be a little warmer than normal because you are both going to be nude, so you may want to turn up the heat. Lighting many candles in the room also helps generate heat, as well as giving the room a soft glow. You will want to make sure that you have an open time frame where you won't be disturbed, preferably a few hours. Remember to turn off all of your phones and pagers, and if you live with others, you can even put a ""Do Not Disturb"" sign on the door. +Music is good to set the mood, but be sure it's something where _all_ of the tracks are appropriate. There's nothing so jarring as a discordant piece of music suddenly playing when you're trying to relax. Make sure your CD player has a ""repeat"" function, so you don't have to stop to push ""play"" again and again. +You can also go so far as to have fresh flowers and fruit in the room, as well. These are sensual delights, and will help soften a woman into her feminine nature. Soft, juicy fruits are best, especially exotic ones like mangoes and papaya, but even peaches and pears work in a pinch. Feed her with your fingers, let the juices run down her chin. This flow will encourage her to flow elsewhere. +You lubricants and oils should be somewhere within easy reach. Try to get spill proof bottles, and use plastic rather than glass. (Knocking over a bottle of massage oil and breaking it makes a huge mess and goes a long way toward ruining the mood!) +If you are giving this massage, you should remind your partner that their communication with you is key. Make sure that they feel comfortable making requests or comments. She should know that this is about her comfort and pleasure (which, ironically, may initially make her feel uncomfortable, but that's ok) and if she has to get up to use the bathroom, or if she needs a break, or if the room is too cold or too hot, or the touch is too light or too hard, she can and should speak up and say something. This alone can be a difficult practice for some women, and you can often encourage her by asking ""Is this too hard?"" or ""Is the temperature ok?"" just to get her into the swing of things. +The first thing you should do is breathe together. Breath is the way we make love with the divine. Look into each other's eyes and breathe, deep into your belly. You should be sitting face-to-face (or standing, if you prefer). You can hold hands, or hold onto each other, whatever feels good to you both. +The massage begins with the woman lying on her back, usually with something under her hips to lift them a little—a pillow (cover this with a towel) or a cushion. She can place a pillow under her head if she likes, or not, whichever is more comfortable. Make sure she is relaxed and truly comfortable before you begin, because she is going to be in this position a long time. +You should sit between the woman's legs, cross-legged. Tell her to bend her knees slightly and then let them fall open. You can also position her legs for her if you like. You should continue looking into her eyes and breathe with her. Remind her, often, of her breath. If you find she is holding her breath, you can place your hand on her lower belly and remind her to breathe from that space, to ""fill her belly"" with her breath. Practice this a few times before you begin. +Yoni massage begins with a slow, sensual massage of the other parts of the body. Massage her legs, her belly, her breasts, her arms. This a long, slow process. Look at the feminine form in front of you, breathe her in—this is a goddess. Worship her with your hands, your eyes. Advance the massage slowly toward the inner thighs and pelvis, until she is breathing deeply from her belly, and her body has no more tension and is fully relaxed. +Then, and only then, should you approach the Yoni. This is a sacred act, and a powerful one. You should ask her permission to enter this temple. You can simply say the words, ""May I touch your Yoni?"" or you can more formally ask, ""May I touch your sacred spot?"" She may giggle, or smile. She may actually get tears in her eyes. Most women have never had their bodies held in such regard and worshipped in such a way, and any reaction is normal. Take it in stride, whatever it is. +If she gives you permission, pour a small quantity of _very good quality_ massage oil or water-based lubricant on the mound of the Yoni, just so that it drips over the vulva (the outer lips). The quality of the oil is important. This area of the body is very sensitive, and the skin can get raw quickly if the oil isn't high quality. (I know this from personal experience—yeouch!) Spend a great deal of time here, rubbing the oil into the vulva. Use slow, steady motions. You can cup the entire Yoni with your hand and massage it that way as well. Then focus on the outer lips: squeeze each lip between your thumb and forefinger, stroking up and down the entire length. +Remember, too, to ask her what she is feeling—is it too hard, too soft? Too fast, too slow? Let her pleasure be your guide. You don't need to have a conversation (and probably shouldn't—it might take her out of her body) but definitely keep communicating during the massage. Look into her eyes, and keep breathing with her. +Next, do the same motion over the inner lips, squeezing each one between your thumb and forefinger, stroking up and down the length. Spend as much time as you need here—this isn't about rushing through. Her Yoni is a sacred space, and you are making your way through it, exploring it completely. Worship every soft, delicate fold as you massage her. +Her clitoris should be stroked gently, first with clockwise, then counterclockwise circles. You should then squeeze it between thumb and index finger, and gently pull on it. You should continue to stimulate her clitoris in slow, easy circles. She will probably become aroused during this process, but continue to encourage her to relax and breathe. +When you have spent your time here, you should move on to the entrance of her temple—it is time to enter the Yoni. Again, you should ask her permission, in whatever way feels most comfortable for you to say. ""May I enter you?"" is fine, as well as, ""May I enter your sacred space?"" Gently insert one finger (some women prefer two, you can ask which she likes) slowly into her Yoni. If she prefers one, use the middle finger of your right hand. If she prefers two, use your middle and index fingers. +Gently explore and massage the inside of the Yoni with your finger(s). This is a massage, remember, and while you _are_ penetrating her, this isn't about simulating coitus. This is about truly discovering what she feels like inside, reveling in every glorious inch of her flesh, and allowing her to feel your worship of her while she experiences the pleasurable sensations of her own body. +Explore the textures of her, the smoothness, the softness, with your finger(s). Take it a fraction of an inch at a time. If you come up against spots that are painful and tight, stop moving, but continue to press your fingers there. Women often carry years of pain, frustration, and trauma locked up tight inside their Yoni and this massage can help release those if you are patient and gentle. +You may be surprised if she starts to cry—whatever her reaction is, it's ok. This is about releasing, and letting things flow. Strong emotions—fear, anxiety, or even joy—could come up. Encourage her to let them flow through her as you keep massaging the inner walls of her temple. She may also experience some tingling or heat in those places where there once was tension. This is normal as well. Keep breathing together. +If you have been using just your middle finger, now insert the finger between the pinky and the middle finger and, with your palm facing up, put them as far as they will go inside of her. Now, curl your fingers in a ""come here"" gesture—crooking them back towards the palm. This is the area of the G-spot (it's ""sacred spot"" in Tantra). It can be very sensitive and it feels different from the vaginal walls, soft and spongy to the touch. You will know you have found it because most women feel an urge to urinate when it is first stimulated, or some may experience a kind of burning, or some woman find it immediately very pleasurable. Continue focusing here at this spot, varying the speed and pressure to her liking. Remember to keep asking her for feedback. +You can use your other hand, or the thumb of your right hand, to begin to stimulate the clitoris. You want to begin to awaken her to an even higher state of arousal. You can also, if she is amenable, insert the pinky of your right hand into her anus. (Don't do this unless you already know she enjoys anal stimulation—this isn't the time to experiment with first time anal play!) In Tantra, it is said that when your pinky is in her anus, the next finger and middle finger are in her Yoni, and your thumb is on her clitoris, you are ""holding the mystery of the universe"" in your hand. Experience the power of that moment together, breathe it into your bellies. You are worshipping the mystery she is, as woman. +Continue massaging her this way until she asks you to stop. She may orgasm, clitorally or vaginally, or some combination thereof. If she doesn't tell you to stop, then don't. Many women can learn to have multiple orgasms using this technique. Keep reminding her to breathe from her belly, and remember to breathe with her. You can use your other hand to press her womb, as a reminder. You can also use your other hand to massage her breasts, or her belly, or her clitoris. You shouldn't, however, use your other hand for self- stimulation. If you are a male massager, you may have an erection, or if you are a female, you may be aroused—this is normal. Use that energy to focus on the woman in front of you, pour into her the passion and love and reverence you are feeling with your hands. It is a powerful gift. +You should stop massaging when she tells you to stop. At that time, slowly and gently take your hands away. Thank her for the opportunity to worship her, and then you can hold each other, kiss and cuddle if you like. If you are going to transition into some other form of sexual contact, I would recommend a break of some kind—go to the bathroom, or go to another room to continue. You want to keep the Yoni massage about worshipping her as a goddess, and don't want to diminish it in any way. +If you do Yoni massages over a period of time, a woman can learn a new level of trust and intimacy and a deeper connection to her body. Yoni massage can release layers of tension, and allow a previously non-orgasmic woman to become orgasmic, or even to learn how to have multiple orgasms. Just remember, it is about entering the temple of the divine feminine—treat her with reverence, deep love, respect, and honor her for the great mystery that she is. If you do, you may find that the rewards are immeasurable. +\------------------ + **Bibliography** +Copeland, Pala and Link, Al. – Soul Sex: Tantra For Two The Career Press, Franklin Lakes, New Jersey 2003." +371,How to Give Characters Random Names,cheetah83,How To,2006-05-14,2006-05-14,2022-01-04 08:31:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-give-characters-random-names,A surprisingly simple & effective name generator.,"['Author Advice', 'Character Advice', 'Naming', 'Writing Advice']",4.45,"When I started writing erotic fiction on Literotica a year ago I vowed never to give characters names of people I know. Well, about 10 months and 12 stories later I found out I was out of names. I either didn't know enough names or I knew too many people (I hope it's the latter). So when I exhausted the appelations of my obnoxious flatmates and the mean girls on my high school cheerleader team I was faced with a dilemma: I either had to find a way to generate plausible character names randomly, or write about my gay step uncle shooting hot blobs of cum in the mouth of the batty Estonian lady at the drycleaners'. +If you find yourself in a similar situation (gay step-uncles and Estonian cleaning ladies abound) you might find it instructive to duplicate this relatively simple (if you are familiar with the software) Microsoft Excel procedure I devised in order to generate random character names: +Step 1 >>> Here is where your undergraduate tuition is finally going to pay off! You need to access free US Census population data online at: http://www.census.gov/genealogy/names/names_files.html +It gives you 1000+ of the most common male and female names in the USA. +Now go ahead and open the ""dist.male.first"" link. It will open as a text file - a bunch of names and their frequency among US males. +Step 2 >>> From your window menu, click on ""Edit/Select All"". The entire jumble of names and numbers is now selected. Click on ""Edit/Copy"" to copy it. +Step 3 >>> Open Microsoft Excel. You need to have it in order for this cunning trick to work. +Step 4>>> Select the first cell A1, then click on ""Edit/Paste"" in the Excel window. You now have the all the male names on the first 1300 rows of your workbook. +Step 5>>> This is not really essential since it won't interfere with the procedure, but you might want to delete the useless numbers next to the names you need. The easiest way to do that is to click on ""Data/Text to Columns"", press ""Next"" ""Next"" and ""Finish"" on the window that appears, and then get rid of the columns that the numbers got sorted in. You can also keep the columns if you want to use the data for something else, say a sociology paper ;) +Step 6>>> In cell B1 type (without the quotation marks)the following: ""=RAND()"". This function generates a random number between 0 and 1 (say 0.1532) adjacent to the first name in A1. +Step 7>>> Now, in cell C1 type this: ""=IF(B2<0.999,1)"". This means that cell C1 will return ""1"" if the number in B1 is less than 0.999 and ""FALSE"" if the number is greater. I chose to do it with ""FALSE"" because it is easer to spot when you scroll down fast as you search. +Step 8>>> Drag-Paste the B1 and C1 cells on the next 1219 or some rows to repeat the function for each name. If you don't know how to drag paste - select both B1, C1 ro both, then click on the little black sqare that peeks on the lower right corner of the selection border. Holding your mouse down (the cursor looks like a gun sight) drag the expanding selection field down. It makes all the cells equivalent to B1 and C1 (but relative to their own row). +Step 9>>> You are almost done! Now repeat the same process for the female names using the ""dist.female.first"" file and pasting the names in cell H1 or in another worksheet. The female names are actually 4,200+ but you can use only the top 1000 if you don't like to bother. I personally like the fact that there is a wider selection of femmes to choose from, since my stories often involve several exotic ones doing each other, or touching themselves and pining over some guy with a bland name. +Step 10>>> You are ready to roll! To use your random names Generator, simply press F9 on your keybord. Excel reshuffles the random numbers and you have character names for your stories!

It sends a little tingle through my whole body and makes me glow. But I'm not foolish enough to think that my writing doesn't have room for improvement. Even the best writers have at least a quarter inch or so where they could improve. I know I have at least a quarter mile to go. One of the best tools I have to improve my writing is when someone takes the time to give me constructive feedback. +Now, hearing what is wrong with your writing can be hard to take. On a good day, I grin sheepishly and say, ""yeah, I need to work on that."" On a bad day, it can make me cringe and want hide under the bed covers. Thankfully, there is a simple method to giving constructive feedback that anyone can use to correct and yet encourage a writer at the same time. + **The Rule of Two's ~ Be Encouraging & Constructive** +*""Of course, Noah had a heck of a job really. He had to go out and collect +all of the animals of the world by twos. Two mosquitoes... male or female?"" + **Be Encouraging** ~ Find two things you like about a piece of writing, _no matter how small._ If you're going to tell them what they did wrong, tell them something they did right _first._ It can be a particular turn of phrase that flowed nicely, a description or a line of dialogue. Even if it's just the color of the main character's hat, _find something._ It will encourage the writer who needs building up and may help keep the writer who really needs help from getting defensive. +That being said, don't lie. You can state your encouragement in a positive though non-effusive manner if the story really needs a lot of work. Having some people tell a writer how outrageously wonderful their story is and then other people say it stinks like chicken shit is either going to confuse and dispirit the writer or build up a false belief in their skills. Simply using the phrases ""I enjoyed"" or ""I liked"" allows you to offer praise without being fake about it. +*""And he had to keep telling the rabbits, only two... _only_ two."" + **Be Constructive** ~ Pick two things for the writer to work on that will most improve their writing. Focus on the things you think are most distracting to the reader. You do not need to respond to every single thing you see wrong in a piece of writing. The more help the piece needs, the more general you can be. If you really want to tell them everything you see wrong with the story, offer to edit it for them. Then don't be offended if they say, ""no, thanks."" +Be specific in your constructive criticisms. ""It's boring"" or ""I couldn't get into it"" are not only a little tactless, they are pretty much useless bits of criticism. You need to explain yourself. ""I found it boring because... there was not enough dialogue."" ""I couldn't get into it because... you changed tenses several times in the first three paragraphs."" Be specific in your criticisms or they are useless to the writer. +Have a little tact while you're at it. One of my favorite words, tact. There is simply no need to be rude! Tact is not about pussyfooting around or neglecting to say what so clearly needs to be said. It is about stating things in a polite way that shows respect for another person's feelings. Have you noticed that people in your life bristle at your suggestions? Or have stopped listening to you at all? It may be that you need a little tact. Neglect to use some tact and the writer you are commenting on has every right to disregard you as either, at best, a tactless jerk or, at worst, a troll. It can also make all the relationships in your life run a little smoother, I promise. +Taking the time to read and vote is a kindness in itself. If you don't have much to say but enjoyed the story, then leave a little positive comment. If you notice some things that could have been done better, please take the time to send constructive feedback. This is a simple way to encourage quality writing on Literotica. Share your expertise in this area as often as you are able. There may be some who are not appreciative but, if done with a modicum of tact, most will listen, learn and be very grateful for your help. +* +*Bill Cosby, ""Noah: Me and you, Lord."" **The Best of Bill Cosby.** Warner Bros.

Did I miss the part where sex bloggers became the next designated Dear Abby? +It made me wonder how many emails like this she gets - and perhaps others like her, as well, who have established sex blogs. Do people really believe that having a sex blog makes you an expert sexual advice giver? Some magical keeper of sexual knowledge? +But people seem to assume that, too, when you write erotic fiction. I have received countless requests for relationship and sex advice -- but just what in the world makes them think I'm qualified to give it is beyond me! +One of my ""I need advice"" emails was from a nineteen year old girl.

And if I want to do something, like give him a blowjob, I feel like an idiot just doing it. I have no confidence in my technique.

Enjoy what you're doing. And don't do anything you wouldn't enjoy! Honestly, you don't have to worry about your technique - if you like what you're doing, he will, too. If you want to give him a blowjob, then take your own pleasure in the feel of him in your mouth - make lots of yummy noises so he knows you like it. +For the feminine, initiating isn't about being aggressive -- it's about experiencing pleasure.

Just take a deep breath, close your eyes, and let your body do what it wants, experience the moment, right there, as it is. +As for telling him about your period? Just be honest. Guys know we have periods. If you still want to be intimate, you can. Oral sex (for him) is an alternative. If he starts to put his hand between your legs, just say, ""You might not want to go there - I've got my period."" You can even still have intercourse if you feel up to it. The shower is the perfect place this time of the month. If you're still going out with him over a period (ha, pun intended) of time, you can develop a sort of code for this time of the month. I tell my husband, ""Sorry, baby, the water's not safe for swimming."" And I love it when I can say, ""Yep, the water's safe for drinking again!"" :) +The best thing you can do is relax and be who you really are with him.

A man's guide on how to blow men. 2. A variety of physical techniques to enhance orgasm.,"['Blowjobs', 'Cum Swallow', 'Gay', 'How To']",4.62,"I am a 33 year bisexual man. I have gotten many blowjobs from men and women alike and I have given many blowjobs. I am writing this to help both men and woman to understand the art of pleasuring a man's penis orally. Sucking a man to orgasm can be great for him and just as exciting for you. I am going to give you some helpful information and even share some of my stories that can help you improve your oral skills. +Orgasms +Men love to cum but that is no secret. Men basically have three types of orgasms and I have labeled them in three levels. A rushed or uninspired quick release may provide a basic level one orgasm. It feels decent, there may be a few minor squirts that basically ooze out and it is all over. +Now a level two orgasm feels pretty damn good and men will settle for this one. This type of orgasm comes when the man is aroused and you put in some time. A man can shoot a strong load and is very satisfied when he is finished. +The level three orgasm is what all men strive to get. This type of orgasm is what causes men to ruin their lives, perform the nastiest shit imaginable, while sneaking to find ways to achieve them. They are rare but when they happen, the man loses all self-control as he feels an electric current jolt up his ass, through his balls and rifles out the end of his cock. This type of orgasm causes a man to crinkle his toes, tense his whole body, and shoot his sperm with great force and great distances. He feels like the head of his cock is actually exploding. +It takes time to build a man up to a level three orgasm. You need to stimulate him mentally as well as physically. You need to take your time and make him feel relaxed and not rushed. You have to want to pleasure his dick in such a way, it has no choice but to release its sperm whether it wants to or not. When I suck a man off, my goal is always to make him cum so hard, he feels like his body is seizing up and his cum smacks the back of my throat with great force. +Preparation +The first thing you need to do is get the man in comfortable position. Allow him to choose if he wants to sit down, lie down, or stand with his legs spread while you are on your knees in front of him. Then remove his pants in a way that gets him excited. Slowly unbuckle his belt and unbutton his pants. Then slowly unzip him and slide his pants down his hips. If he is sitting or lying down, have him raise his ass up so you can get those pants completely off. When you do the work for him, it allows him to feel you want to please him and not that you are just doing it for him. Sometimes, the quickie mentality can be very enjoyable and you can pull is pants down to his mid-thigh or stick his cock out through his zipper. +Once his cock is out, it is your job to love on it until it is fully hard. Tell the guy you are about to blow, that his cock looks delicious. Give it compliments but make sure they are genuine. While you are kissing and licking this man's dick, pay attention to some of its great features so you can make honest comments about it. Study and learn those features. +It always starts with the 2 most obvious features and those are its size and length. Sure, everyone loves the big dick and they get the most recognition but learn to appreciate the smaller cocks just as much as you love the large ones. Notice if the cock is bald or hairy, smooth in texture or real meaty, if it is uncut or circumcised, if it has veins protruding out of it, if it has a big head or a tapered head, if it has an upward arc or if it is straight as an arrow, the smell of it, and pay attention to the color of it depending on the race of the man you are sucking. For example, when I suck off a black man, I will tell him how beautiful his black cock is and so forth. +Some of the comments you can make with all those observations are, ""Wow, your cock is huge and it would be a pleasure to service it for you."" or ""I love how your dick is curved so now it fits perfectly in my throat."" If a guy has a 5 inch cock, don't say, ""Boy, you are huge."" He knows he doesn't have a big cock, so don't patronize him. It might be more effective to say something like, ""Your cock looks strong or powerful."" Honesty is a big aphrodisiac. +There are also things you should do to show your man that you really are into sucking his dick and you're willing to put the time in. I first smell his dick. This is so erotic and can excite you so much that you cannot wait to get started. Dicks can smell like many things such as laundry detergent from his underwear, masculine musk from just the all days wear, sweaty from the day's activities, cologne that was put on earlier in the day, latex from wearing a condom, and even pussy. I once stayed with this couple and many evenings when the guy would fuck his wife, he would sneak in my room in the middle of the night for me to suck him off. His cock would taste like rubber and pussy which I found to be a turn on. There were times; he wouldn't even cum at all while he screwed his wife because he wanted me to make him cum with my mouth. He would cum so hard, he would almost pass out. +Additional outside smells can also get you so aroused that you want to suck dick. For example, chlorine water smell is an aphrodisiac for me. I love it. Just recently, I was at the YMCA working out and that smell was very strong in the locker room. There was a thin muscular gentleman showering and I ended up sucking him off while he was in the shower. Without exaggeration, he was shooting his cum in my mouth in less than three minutes. He must have also enjoyed that smell as well. Whatever the smell, enjoy it and get lost in it. +Another technique I use is allowing the guy to be visually stimulated while you are giving him head. I will put in a porno that he likes and let him watch it while I suck his cock. For some reason, there are people who strongly object to this and I ask, why? This is a win/win situation. The guy gets to watch something very stimulating which in turn, makes him cum quicker and harder and you don't have to but in so much time before you get his load. Both of you win. +For example, I was with this older guy for a couple of months and he loved girls' asses. He would rent porno videos that showed all kinds of asses and they were getting licked and fucked. He would sit in his beanbag chair and watch these videos while I sucked his dick. He would get so worked up; he would be blowing his load in my mouth within no time. There were several occasions where he would even cum two or three times in this manner within a 30 to 45 minute time frame. Why suck a guy's cock until your jaw is stiff and sore if you don't have too. +Sucking +It is now time to start the blowjob. I like to massage the man's prick as I lick and kiss it. Show it lots of love. Be genuine. Inhale everything. Give it an occasional suck. Look up into the guy's eyes as you are performing all of this so his imagination can run wild. Remember, before you get down to the real action, you want this man's cock as hard as he can get it. You want that dick skin to be tight and the head to be purple and bulbous. The harder the dick, the more precum will leak out. I like to savor the precum because it is a man's way to let you know he likes what you are doing. Once it is completely hard, it is now time to get down to business. +When you wrap your lips around a man's erection, you want to do it slowly and evenly. The three things he loves the most on his cock is warmth, wetness, and continuous friction. After I have a guy inside my mouth, I start to suck slowly and sensually. I make sure I keep my mouth on it and bob up and down so that he can really feel those three things. Be sure you keep those teeth out of the way especially when you're going faster on him, preparing for his cum. You want your mouth to feel exactly like an orifice he is used to fucking. Remember, a blowjob is a mouths way to simulate the guy fucking something familiar and the more you can make your mouth feel like something he likes to fuck, the quicker and more pleasurable he will cum. +Don't confuse a blowjob with allowing the man to fuck your mouth. It is still oral sex but has a different vibe to a degree where it is almost a different type of sex altogether and that is what makes it exciting. Once again, it is a mental thing. When you are blowing a man, you are in control and you are the person taking his cum but when he fucks your mouth, he has the control and he is giving you his cum. +When you allow a man to fuck your mouth, there are some things you need to keep in mind. You are providing an orifice for him to get off in almost to the extent where he is using your mouth to masturbate. I try to keep my mouth a consistent diameter for a tight fit, keep my teeth out of the way, and most importantly, I try to hold still until he finishes. Nothing is more aggravating when a man is trying to fuck your mouth and you keep pulling him out or stopping him over and over. Now the exception to this is if he tries to fuck you in your throat and this is the only time you have the control and he will choke or gag you if you allow that. +I use mainly three positions for mouth fucking. I will either sit or kneel on the floor while my partner stands in front of me, I will lay on my stomach with my head up while my partner is on his knees in front of me, and finally I will lie on my back on the side of the bed with my head turned and the guy will stand on the floor beside me. Remember when a man is fucking, he is thrusting his hips in and out which means he will need some leverage so he doesn't either lose his balance or slide away from you. To provide that leverage, he will often hold your head on both sides, or from the top, or from the back. +I was seeing this one guy not too long ago who loved when I laid on my stomach with my head dangling over the side of the bed, I would lift my head to give him access to my mouth and he would use his large hand to hold the top of my head like he was palming a basketball. He was strong enough to hold me still so when he blasted his cum in my mouth, I couldn't instinctively pull back or off of him until he was completely finished. After he had completely finished cumming, he would just stand there and shiver with his dick still in my mouth and I could feel his cock soften and the remaining sperm ooze out. When you are getting your mouth fucked, it is better to allow him to decide when it is finished because he can make sure he is completely satisfied. +Deepthroating +Deepthroating is a skill that is very difficult to learn and not many people can truly do it. I have been lucky enough to master the skill but not without years of practice. The most common myth is the longer the penis, the harder it is to deepthroat. Actually the most difficult characteristic that prevents you from deepthroating your man is his thickness. I've sucked 6 inch cocks that were so thick, I had trouble getting them down my throat all the way up until I once deepthoated an African graduate assistant from Nigeria in my professor's office, who had a 13 inch dong. It was very thin and once I got past the gag reflex, I didn't have much trouble taking him all the way down to his pubic hair. I am not saying you cannot deepthroat fat cocks but it is much more difficult. I have sucked off a few guys that were just too large to deepthroat. +When I blow a guy, I always at least try to deepthroat him. They love this because most people cannot do it and the sensation feels great. Before I deepthroat cock, I need to get it naturally lubricated. I have a technique where I suck and purposely slobber on the head and allow it to run down the sides of the shaft. Then I use my hand to squeeze the shaft so that I can milk out a glob of precum to add to the mix. The last step is to smear it all over the dick as though you're jacking it off. When a dick is going down your throat, the moisture helps lubricate it which is doubly important if that dick is thicker. +Getting the cock down your throat is difficult enough, but it takes practice to be able to go up and down on it while it is lodged down there. I recommend practicing with different thicknesses of dildos until you have it perfected. When I was learning, I purchased 5 dildos. I had a smooth thin 6 inch green dildo that was meant for assholes like a butt plug, a thin 7 inch realistic feel model, a thick 7 inch veiny model, a clear, thin 8 inch model with a larger head, and a 10 inch large dong modeled after Jeff Stryker. I used to frequently practice with these along with watching select porn stars performing it. I now think the realistic housewife Heather Brooke is the queen of deepthroating and I highly recommend pulling up her on the internet. +To deepthroat, you must lift your chin to create a straight tunnel from your mouth to your throat. Relax your throat muscles and breathe through your nose. I really takes concentration because you have to convince your brain you are not choking. You don't want to swallow the dick but allow it to penetrate or slide down your throat. Let the mushroom head slip past the gag reflex and hold it still for a little while. You will gag, wretch and your eyes will water when you are learning and that is normal. You may have to keep pulling it out and retrying. +When I first started, I would lie on my back with my head draped over the side of the bed to get that head tilt or go down on him with the top of your head pointing toward his feet like you would be in a sixty nine position. I would have the guy, place his dick in my mouth and slowly ease it in if I'm in the lying down position. In other positions, I pull the hard cock down away from the guy's belly and work my way down until it disappears all the way down my throat. The problem is the man you are deepthroating wants to start fucking your throat and it is just too difficult to allow that so you have to use your hands to guide him on his force and speed as I mentioned earlier. +Preparing for his Cum +Obviously when you are going down on a guy, the purpose is to make him cum and you have to decide where you want that cum to end up. No matter how you're sucking a dick, you want to pay attention to subtle clues he will give you to let you know how he feels or how close he is getting. When a man is getting close to blowing his wad, he will start squirming, breathing faster or shallower, drastically change facial expressions, and even verbally encourage you. One way you can tell when a dick is about to erupt is by feeling the underside of it with your tongue as you're sucking and you can feel those little ""cum gushes"" inside the shaft as it makes its way up to the head for release. In some guys, you can feel this more than others. +That was very evident during my senior year spring break trip to Florida when I blew this Cuban worker in his work truck during his night shift. I sucked him off three, maybe four times that week and right before he would cum, I could feel his semen ""mini squirt"" up the shaft before he released. The first night, it was so powerful I actually thought he was cumming and I stopped sucking only to find out nothing was in my mouth. His English was very poor so he just pushed my head back down onto him until he finished. +The guy you are sucking might feel a little apprehensive because he is about to cum and he may not know if you will take his load in your mouth or not. Like I said earlier, you want your guy to be totally comfortable so I like to pop my head up for a split second and say, ""It's ok. Just relax and release it. I need you to go ahead and cum in my mouth for me. I would love to taste it."" If you say something really off the wall or sleazy, not only will this make him cum quicker, he will also cum harder. For example, you are sucking the guys dick and he starts giving you clues, he is about to explode, pop your head up and say something like, ""Will you please cum in my mouth and feed me my lunch? I haven't eaten all day."" I guarantee he will be ready to detonate. +After you say something like that, get back on that dick as quick as possible so he doesn't lose the feeling. Be sure you continue to suck just like you were doing before. Now, he will be relaxed and know he can let loose his giant load without worrying about you. I have been sucking dick for years and I prefer the guy to cum in my mouth so I can swallow his spunk but not everybody feels that way. +Accepting his Cum +The final act while you are blowing a man is deciding how you are going to accept his cum. If you have already let him know it is ok to blow his nut in your mouth, then there are basically three ways to take it. I personally love the taste of cum and like the domination aspect of swallowing it. I imagine I am consuming the seed from a dominant animal and he is marking his territory for the evening like a dog that pisses on the bushes. I feel a sense of accomplishment and humiliation when I know I am carrying around, in my stomach, millions of a man's sperm for the evening. He knows where he left his mark. +The three main methods for a extracting a man's sperm when you're blowing him is using your throat, mouth, or hand. If you are able to take a man down your throat when he ejaculates, you will be able to feel every twitch of his shaft as it spurts which I think is very erotic. This method feels great for the guy and there is no choking or gagging if he is deep enough. The sperm is shot directly into the bottom of your throat and is neat and clean. You have to learn to breathe through your nose effectively. There is a possibility of a couple of glitches during this procedure and first glitch is his cum can choke you. He may get so excited he starts bucking and the cock slides out a little bit and his cum shoots right where it gets caught in your throat. Another way the sperm can choke you is if it is really thick and slimy and it sticks to his head as he withdraws and then it sticks to your throat walls on its way out. +One time I was blowing this guy in the bathroom that I met in a club. He had and extremely long and thin penis. I would have to say it was at least ten or eleven inches long. I was sitting on the toilet while he stood in front of me and I was comfortably deepthroating him and ready for him to cum down my throat but just as he shot his first wad, he pulled away from me slightly which caused his cum to blast in my windpipe. I started choking and coughing and I never finished him off with my mouth. He jacked the rest on my chin and lap as I struggled to breathe. That is why you have to either keep a man all the way down your throat as he ejaculates or just in your mouth. Nothing in- between will work. A technique I learned was to reach around and hold his ass so I can control how much he moves during his orgasm. +The second glitch that may occur when he shoots deep down your throat is you really can't taste it. I feel one of the exciting things about giving a guy a blow job is to find out how his cum looks, feels, smells, and tastes. When you deepthroat a guy to orgasm, you don't know any of that. Cum is unique in the fact it all basic tastes the same yet every guy tastes different, if that makes any sense. Sperm has given me heartburn before and I have even belched cum for a while after I have sucked men off. I was stoned at a party one night and I ended up sucking off 4 or 5 guys during the course of the evening and I will tell you I had to take some antacids the next morning. +When I would deepthoat Jenta's (the Nigerian guy I mentioned earlier) 13 inch pole, he would blow his wad so far down my throat; I would have never known he came if I hadn't felt the twitches of his cock. When he was finished, I had no taste or anything except the smile on his face to let me know how he felt. +The second way to receive a man's cum is to allow him to shoot directly into your mouth as you are sucking him. Don't be fooled into thinking that he can't choke you from his load with this technique. Take the back of your tongue and press it up to the roof of your mouth while keeping the end of it down against the bottom and tighten your throat. This closes off the tunnel to your windpipe but you can still breathe through your nose. Imagine you are drinking out of a straw even though you don't want to breathe in with your mouth as the guy is shooting his cum. It is really difficult to swallow during this process so you just provide a pocket for his semen and store it in your cheeks until he finishes. This is the most common way to take a man's spunk. +You just have to make sure when he starts cumming, not to alter your sucking rhythm even when he is shaking, bucking, or thrusting and also definitely don't stop until he is completely finished. That is one of the most difficult things to do. A lot of novice dick suckers will stop when a guy starts cumming and you will hear him say desperately, ""keep going, keep going"" or he will fumble around trying to grab your head and manually maneuver you to keep sucking him. If your warm mouth going up and down on his prick causes him to cum, then that motion should not be changed until he has emptied his entire load. Stopping your sucking will cause the sensation to change which could lessen his orgasm. This is also the reason you will have some guys pull his dick out of your mouth and jack off on your face or in your mouth because of the fear that powerful ejaculation will be interrupted by you stopping. I will talk about the hand extraction in a little while. +If the guy you're sucking is sitting or laying then it is not as difficult to keep your sucking rhythm when he nuts even if he is shaking or bucking because you can use your hands or your own weight to kind of hold him down until he completely finishes. It is more difficult when he is standing and you're kneeling in front of him. He will have the tendency to grab the back of your head and force you down on it or his movement during orgasm might cause him to slip out of your mouth. That is when you reach around and grab his ass to steady him. +The final way to take a man's sperm is to grab the base of his cock just as he releases his wad and start jerking him in a smooth, controlled manner so it simulates your mouth. This is the technique you have to use when a guy has a very large dick. There have been some black men and a few white guys I had to use this method just because their dicks were too big to really blow properly when they came. Don't grab too tight unless you're performing the damming technique blowjob because that actually takes away the sensation and the orgasm could be less powerful. +I remember Big Ed. He was a huge black guy I met at a party. He was about 6 foot 8 and weighed about 400 pounds. One thing led to another and I ended up blowing him out in the garage. His dick had to be at least twelve inches if it was an inch and as big around as my wrist. I am unsure if anyone reading this has sucked such a huge cock but I will tell you it is impossible to actually suck. You have to fit the head and maybe an inch or two in your mouth then jack him off. If you do it sensual and slow, it simulates a good blowjob. With Big Ed, I had him stand while I sat on an old milk crate. I used both hands to jerk him off while I sucked. I synchronized my jerking with my sucking and when Ed finally came, I never slowed down my jerking pace which allowed him to powerfully cum in my mouth without losing any sensation. I was able to capture his sperm and swallow it. He told me it was the best blowjob that he ever got. +I try not to use the jerking technique while sucking cock unless he is well hung because he wants a true job and not a hand job. There is another time when you may have to jerk as you suck and that is if you happen to be blowing more than one guy in a short time span. If you suck off more than one or two guys in an evening, your jaw and mouth are going to get very tired. You will need that extra friction to speed up the process. Just make sure you are still using your mouth for most of the action and use your saliva for plenty of lube. It is just unrealistic to think you can suck dick for more than an hour without some help. +There will be times he will prefer to jerk it when he cums and that is ok because he may just want to finish with that extra sensation or control. You just keep doing your job and sucking that dick until he decides to pull it out and jack it off. If he wants your mouth, just open it up very wide and stick out your tongue because when a guy is preparing to cum his aim is not very good as we all know. Usually he will just sit his mushroom head on your tongue for stability like a soldier propping his gun up on the ground. A guy will do this too if he oozes instead of shoots. There are also times when he will pull out to jack off and I will immediately dive my face and tongue into his nuts and either lick or suck them while he gives me a facial. Sometimes he may prefer you to wrap your lips around his head as he jerks his spunk into your mouth. The bad news is that sometimes his hand will hit you in the chin as he jacks but the good news is none of his cum misses your mouth. +If you are on top of the dick after it has unloaded and you don't want to allow his cum to run out when you pull your mouth off of it, there are a couple of techniques that work. You can use gravity buy keeping his dick head in your mouth as you pull it down to his stomach if he is lying down or pull it down to the chair if he is sitting and turn your head sideways to catch all the cum as you pull off it. The second technique you can use is to press your lips tightly around his shaft, slide your mouth carefully up until you get to the spongy head, and then slurp with pressure as you lift off and then quickly clamp your lips together not allowing any of his seed to escape. After a man finishes, you want to just keep him in your mouth for just a little while until he starts to soften and this will help because his cum will naturally just ooze out on its own . It is more difficult if he has a large head and that is when you just wait longer than usual before you pull off so you can give it more time to deflate. +I used to blow this eighteen year old neighbor of mine and every time he came, he would literally start shaking so much; it was very difficult to keep my mouth locked on his dong all through the orgasm. The next problem was he usually came so much that there was nowhere to store the sperm without some of it running out of my mouth. What I finally ended up doing was taking the first shot, grab the base of his penis with my hand, pull back and swallow lightening quick, then continue sucking without disrupting his rhythm. I had to do this in-between the first shot and the second shot. After I perfected this technique, I never allowed any of his goo to run out of my mouth again. +Now you have a mouth full of sperm. If you are a swallower, you want to be sure you swallow the entire load and don't wince. Most cum tastes fine but occasionally you will get a batch that is just bitter. You have to be a good actor and after it goes down the hatch, you give him that look like it was the most delicious drink you ever had. Some guys like for you to show them the load in your mouth but if you do that, tilt your head back so it doesn't spill down your chin. I think it gives them a sense of power. +In college, I used to meet up with a guy I met at the library. I was a freshman and he was a senior and I would go over to his apartment a couple days a week to suck him off. I used to suck his dick every way imaginable but his cum was awful. It was thick and had such a bitter taste; it was difficult for me to even pretend it tasted good. I would smile and swallow it and the first chance I got; I would turn my back to him and wince. I would also belch this foul cum smell all evening. I finally had to tell him and I think it hurt his feelings, but it was just too much. +After your guy has completely finished and you have swallowed his cum, it is polite to clean out the remaining sperm in his shaft. Not all of it gets ejaculated and what I do is grab his softening cock and give it a squeeze until the remaining glob pops out of the hole and coagulates on his head. I either take my tongue and lick it off or wrap my lips around his cock tip and suck it off with one giant slurp. Sometime the guy will squeeze his shaft and pop it out for you to clean off. There are times when you are licking or sucking the slime off his head, you get carried away and suck on it too hard which can be very ticklish for the guy. The head of penis gets real sensitive after ejaculation so clean it off quickly or softly. +If you prefer to eat men's cum after it has been ejaculated, then pull your mouth and jack him off all over himself. The cleanup can be very exciting. It allows you to see the thickness and density of the cum, the amount, the distance it shot, the musky, pungent odor of it, and to savor the taste of it as he watches. +It sounds a little gross but the thicker a man's cum is the more I like eating it. For me, there is something erotic about eating clumpy sperm and I think it has a sweeter taste. I once hooked up with a guy whose cum was so thick that I literally ate it off his belly with my hands. I would have him lie on the couch as I would kneel beside him on the floor and suck him until he was ready to cum. Right before he would blow, he would tap me on the head and I would jack him off all over his stomach and chest. He would cum so much and it would be so thick and nasty that I still get excited about eating it to this day. I would have it all over my fingers and lips. I was like a two year old making a complete mess. It was like eating oysters or real thick tapioca pudding. I do miss that. I will tell you, if you are going to eat cum off a man's body, you want to do it quickly. A man's goo tastes much better when it is warm. If you let it cool, then that significantly changes the taste. +If you're not into eating a man's spunk, just as he begins to cum, you can always spit when he finishes or pull off it as he starts shooting and jerk him off on a variety of things. You can have him give you a facial especially if he is standing in front of you. You could jerk him off on himself if he is sitting or lying down and be kind enough to get him a towel. I also let guys blow their load on something that is a fetish to them. I've had guys cum on my chest, feet, and every other body part imaginable. +When I was 15 I used to go down in the basement with my cousin who was also 15 at the time. We would suck each other but he always wanted to finish by cumming on my face. He thought that was so cool he wouldn't let me finish him with my mouth. Right before he would cum, he would pull his dick out of my mouth and jerk off on my face. It used to make me mad when there were no towels around and I would have to use my shirt or underwear to wipe it up. +I once was sucking a guy who had this foot fetish so as he got close to cumming, I hurried up and wrapped my feet around his cock and finished him off with a foot job. He came so hard, he just about passed out. His sperm was dripping from my feet and toes. It was foul and thrilling. +When you take your time and truly want to please the man sexually, you will be able to give him that level three orgasm he so desires. You just have to be willing to put in the time and pay attention to detail. + +" +375,How to Give Great Handjobs,MarkLazer,How To,2014-12-24,2014-12-24,2022-01-04 08:31:39,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-give-great-handjobs,A man's guide on how to jerk off other men.,"['Beat Off', 'Cum', 'Fetishes', 'Gay', 'Gay Sex', 'Handjobs', 'Homosexual', 'Jack Off', 'Jerk Off']",4.5,"The paraphrased clinical definition of a handjob is masturbating an erect penis with one's hand. Just good ole fashioned jerking off is one of many slang terms for it. A handjob separates itself from many other types of masculine sex because a guy can perform it by himself. Because of this, the handjob has a reputation of being the lowest form of sex desired after intercourse or blowjob. If you understand the male penis, are willing to put some variety and effort into your performance, you can give great handjobs to your partner that will make him cum like a teenager once again. I want to share my knowledge and give you tips so that you also can completely understand the process which will enhance your handjob skills. +Preparation +If you have read my other ""how to"" writings, then I will once again start out by telling you that before you engage in any type of sex, you will first need to stimulate your partner mentally. What so many people, who are poor at sex, don't understand, that any type of sex is just as much mental as it is physical. Understanding, accepting, and implementing your partner's desires, fetishes, and quirks are what gives him the powerful orgasms he desires. +One needs to understanding that there are many different factors that can be considered in performing a good handjob. Those factors that can be considered are hand placement and position, surface coverage, speed, dick angle, stroke technique, lubrication, fetish inclusion, and cum guidance. If you consider all these factors in deciding the type of handjob you're going to give, then you can enhance your skills and his pleasure. +Stroke Technique and Lubrication +Basically there are two types of stroke techniques and then sub-variations from those. The first one is when you actually stroke the prick by sliding your hand up and down the surface which makes sense as to why I call it the ""full hand slide"" technique and the second technique is when you grip the cock and ""choke"" or stroke it by moving the skin back and forth rather than sliding your hand. +When using the full hand slide technique, the most common and what needs to be considered is whether you should lubricate the penis or not. If you are actually going to slide your hand on the skin of the entire length of the erection, I recommend using some type of lubrication. If you are not planning on having any other type of sex during the handjob, then that increases your choice of options for lubrication. Any sexual lubrications like Astrogluide or KY Jelly work great but they are water based which is exactly what you need for intercourse but those lubrications can get tacky and sticky if the handjob starts taking some time to complete. +Oil based lubricants are the best type of lubricants to use if you are going to perform only a handjob all the way to completion. Products like alcohol free lotions, Vaseline, baby oil, and those types of products are great because they stay greased and lubed throughout the handjob and you will have to reapply less frequently. If you really want to add to the stimulation, warm the lubrication up first. I have discussed this in one of my previous writings. Soak the lube bottle in very hot water for a few minutes or wrap a heating pad around it for a while. When the warm lubrication hits the guy's cock, he will let out a pleasure gasp and you will be on your way. Another positive when you use lubrication is the slurping or smacking sound it makes as you beat it. That sound can be very erotic and help him cum quicker. The down side to oil based lubricants are they can taint the semen if you plan to ""clean up"" the mess. +The phrase ""clean up"" refers to eating the cum after it has been ejaculated all over him, your hand, or jacking him off directly into your mouth if you don't have the availability of letting if fly everywhere. If you plan on doing this, you don't want chemical products mixed with the semen. When I know I'm going to clean a guy up, I will either use saliva, his own precum, or I will use the second type of technique which I will discuss here shortly. If you choose to use saliva, you have probably seen people spit on the cock or lick their palms. Those are effective but you may not provide enough lube, especially if the guy is well hung. I try to make a point to at least suck on it for a little while to spread the saliva evenly. Also, sucking it, will give the guy more time to get worked up and leak more precum. If you don't have time to suck on it, then you probably aren't going to have the opportunity to clean it up anyway. +If you are trying to get more of his natural lubrication, there are a couple of good techniques to make a man leak more precum. The first one is getting him extremely aroused mentally. Describe what you are going to do to his prick, tease it, involve yourself in foreplay, incorporate a fetish of his, talk really dirty or whatever you can do to make him extremely hard. The more aroused mentally he becomes, the more precum he will ooze. Another way to draw out more precum is to get your man hard, then allow it to soften slightly before you get it hard once again. This will allow some tension to be released and the precum can flow more freely. +When you use the full hand slide technique, you have to be careful to not slide your hand up over the cock head for most guys. It is a sensitive area and actually tickles more than it feels good especially after he has ejaculated. Now if you use the ""choke stroke"" technique, then on some guys, you can jerk the head only but grip it very loosely and usually with little surface coverage in which I will describe later. That will raise the level of sensitivity but prevent it from tickling. +The second stroke technique is as I previously mentioned, when you ""choke"" or ""milk"" the cock. You grip the erection and move your hand up and down, using his foreskin as the sliding force. Your hand does not move very much on the surface of the shaft. Obviously, if the guy is uncircumcised, he has plenty of foreskin to work with. Even if he is circumcised, there is enough loose skin to move up and down, but many people do not realize that is occurring. This is the primary technique used on short cocks. I will discuss the variations of these two techniques later in this writing. +I mix up my techniques according to the guy's natural reproductive system. Penis's are like snowflakes in that no two are exactly alike and I'm not just talking about shape and size. Some guys will get extremely hard with a tight, puffed up cock head and some will be spongier to the touch. Some guys will have a smooth, tight shaft while others will have that veiny, meaty feel. Some guys will leak a ton of precum and some will rarely produce any. The variations go on and on. If you learn your man's cock and what feels the best for him, you will be able to jack him off to an earth shattering orgasm. +For example, when I hooked up with this black athlete with a huge, uncut dick, sometimes he would continuously leak precum like a faucet. I am not kidding, it would literally, just flow out, nonstop. When I would jerk him off, I never needed lubrication. The problem I had was when I would see all that precum oozing out, it was just too tempting not to put it in my mouth. I don't remember giving him very many handjobs because I always ended up sucking him off but when I did, I used that precum to my advantage and I could use the full hand slide technique whether I was using one hand or both of them on that beautiful 11 inch black tool of his. +Hand Placement and Position +Little attention is given to hand placement during a handjob. There are the basically four different hand placements on a cock and all have a slightly different feel which does make a difference. When a man jerks himself off, biologically, his hand placement is mostly with his fingers underneath the shaft toward the balls and his thumb is overtop the shaft toward his belly button. I will describe each hand placement in accordance to where the fingers are placed. +This ""fingers underneath"" hand placement can be mimicked by standing behind your man and jacking him off which has the nickname of a ""reach around"" or you can sit down with your legs spread. Have your man sit down directly in front of you and his back should be almost up against your stomach. Have him put his hands behind his back and you use your hands as if they were his. If your man is really hung, you can reach both hands around and jerk him off. The negative to this position is that you cannot see his cock during the handjob or when he cums. Watching your man cum is an exciting visual for you. +Another ""fingers underneath"" hand placement position is the ""sit beside."" It really doesn't matter which side you sit on but I do recommend the side of him that matches up with your dominant hand so that you can just reach across your body for a comfortable grip. If you sit on the opposite side, you will just have to lean over his lap and twist your body to achieve the same grip but it can be just as effective. Another position where you can use this hand placement is have your man lay flat on his back. You straddle his abs and sit facing away from his face and towards his cock. Sometimes in this position, I will scoot down and put my cock up against his and jack both of us off simultaneously and see which one cums first and then use that cum as lubricant for the other one. It is exciting when we cum at the same time. +The final ""fingers underneath"" position can be obtained when you are positioned between his legs and you turn your hand upside down. He could be laying, sitting or standing and you have to position yourself accordingly to gain the best grip for ""milking' him. This position isn't used as often, because it usually isn't conducive for comfort for the handjob giver. Sometimes handjobs take some time and in this position, your hand can get tired pretty quickly, but it is a nice change once in a while. +The second and third hand placements are ""fingers left"" and ""fingers right."" This is when you grip the cock with those fingers to the side and the thumb is on the opposite side. Obviously, sitting, standing, or lying beside your man is the best position for this. This grip and position is also the best position to vary your dick angle in which I will discuss a little later. When I use this position, I often will have my guy lay down flat on his back and I will turn my head sideways and lay my cheek on his stomach facing his cock as I jerk. This gives you so many options along with the hand and wrist comfort. Not only can I vary my dick angles, I can suck on it anytime, finish him off with my mouth, take a facial, or basically anything I choose. +The final hand placement is with the ""fingers on top"" grip. There many positions that will allow you to perform this grip. Your man could be sitting, laying, squatting, on his knees, or standing. You have to place yourself between his legs and face him. If he is lying down, you can sit between his legs and jerk him off or you can lay down on your stomach while beating it. This gives you close access so you can occasionally lick or suck on it. I like to sit with my legs spread in a v formation while he sits with his legs spread the same way facing me. I will have the guy sit close enough and have him drape his legs overtop mine. This position will give you options. You can give him a standard jerk off, you can put your cock up against his and jack both of them off simultaneously, you can have him put his legs up high and perform anal stimulation on him like inserting your finger, butt plug or any other object he likes. I have had guys like many things in their ass when I jerk them off and not just gay guys. +I always think of Roy. He was a married straight guy who lived next to my Grandmother. When I would stay with her in the summer, I frequently, would go over to his house and get him off when his wife was at work. Most of the time I would suck him off but occasionally I would give him a great handjob. Whether I would be laying between his legs with his cock buried in my mouth or sitting on the floor jerking him all over himself, he loved when I would put a finger in his ass just as he came. I would be doing my business while using my middle finger to encircle or massage his anus and he would yell out, ""Put it in"" or ""Do it now"" and I would slip that finger straight into his rectum and he would cum so hard. It was an exciting see him buck like he was riding a bull in a rodeo even if sometimes it was difficult to hand on until he finished. +If you are going to perform the ""fingers on top"" grip and you are on a lower plain than him, you can also be creative. He could be sitting on a chair or couch and you could be on the floor between his legs. He could be standing while you kneel in front of him or he could be on his knees with you lying on your back between his legs. These positions can let you use your tongue on his balls or his asshole. You can also once again insert things in his ass for the prostate message handjob. There are endless possibilities when you jack your man off. +Dick Angle +I spoke about dick angles in my ""receiving anal sex"" writing. Many people don't realize that the angle you have a hard dick from the body changes the feel ever so slightly. Obviously, you could move the cock away from the body and create many angles but basically there are about 4 that can make a difference in an orgasm. If a guy is laying down on his back and you have his dick sticking straight up in the air, that obviously is a 90 degree angle. If his cock is barely off his stomach that is about a 15 degree angle while in- between those two angles are about a 45 degree angle and if you have the erection pulled down between his legs it is about a 120 degree angle. +The larger the angle means the cock is pulled further from the body. The further the cock is from the body, the more stamina it has to resist cumming because the base of the cock that connects to the body creates tension. This tightness slightly decreases the sensation that leads to orgasm. This will also explain why men have more sexual stamina and don't cum as quick when you are riding them as opposed to them fucking you in other positions. All the angles feel great but each has a different feel. The biggest advantage of a handjob, is you can vary the angles throughout the act. If your guy is fucking you or you are giving him a blowjob, once you establish your position, the dick angle will not change much unless you change positions. +For example, I may be beating a guy off with his cock at a 90 degree angle and I may lean forward, shift his cock at 15 degrees (right next to his stomach), and rub his abs while you say, ""Shoot it all over your belly right here. I want to lick it all up."" That cock angle change along with the mental stimulation brought on by your dirty talk, will make him cum very quickly and powerfully. +Some other reasons you may change the dick angle of your handjob would be to aim the cock so it will cum in a desired direction or because you are trying to perform multiple tasks at once. I will give an example of each one. Aiming it in a desired direction is very common. I love seeing men cum and also enjoy the power over making him do it. Some people may find it revolting but I really enjoy semen. I love the taste of it and yes, occasionally I run into a guy who's cum tastes bitter but for the most part, I like it. Even when I jack a guy off and he starts cumming, all I can think about is how it will taste. This is why I give a ton more blowjobs than handjobs. Because of this fetish I have, when I change handjob angles, it is usually to aim it in my mouth or face. I will have a guy laying on his back just beating his meat at a 90 degree angle. Just as he gets close, I will lay my head on his stomach and finish him off in my mouth. Obviously, there are many things to aim a cumming cock at and I will get more into that later in this writing. +An example of performing multiple tasks at once would be messaging his balls with one hand as you jerk him at a 90 degree angle with the other. As you continue, you decide you want to lick or suck his balls instead of messaging them. You shorten your angle to 45 degrees to give yourself room to get your mouth down there. Eventually you may decide to shorten your angle even more so you can get further under his nuts to rim his asshole. The great thing about handjobs, you can keep changing angles as needed. And because there are so many different angles and sensations, you can keep your handjobs exciting and fresh. +Surface Coverage and Speed +Surface coverage refers to the amount of the shaft that is actually touched during a handjob. Speed refers to how fast you move your hand up and down when you jerk. Now obviously the most common surface coverage is the one handed, four fingers and a thumb handjob. Some guys like a lot of coverage and some guys like very little coverage. When I jerk a guy off, I usually perform all of the choices and let him decide what he likes best. The most coverage would obviously be the two handed handjob with one hand positioned on top of the other. This can only be accomplished if your man is well hung. I have been lucky enough to have had several big cocks at my disposal but those are a minority and that is only because I have had so many dicks. When performing a traditional two handed jerk off, keep your top hand where it runs just under the helmet or rim of the head and either give slow, smooth strokes or a slower down stroke with a quicker, jerk on the upward strokes. From my experience with most men, it gets too sensitive on the head if you run your hands too high. Even when I accidently do it, I will have guys squirm and almost take their hand to move mine away. Also, a traditional two handed handjob gets tiring and uncomfortable pretty quickly for the giver so if your man hasn't given you his load in a short amount of time, then there are some varieties to the two hander. +I like to keep one hand on the base and just hold it still while I stroke with the other hand very quickly or stroke in a circular motion up and around the cock. You can also stroke with both hands in a circular motion. This technique is also very good while you're sucking him off. I have also stroked both hands in opposite directions but that becomes difficult to sustain if your man takes a little while to blow. Another two handed technique is instead of stacking one hand over the other, stack your hands on top of each other to form one giant hand. You can then use all the jerking techniques including the twist. These techniques are great if the guy has a really thick cock along with length. +Of course the one handed handjob is the most common not only because two hands cannot fit on most cocks, but it is comfortable for the giver and the giver has more freedom to change the angle and stroke technique at any time. I will tell you that if your man is uncircumcised, slower speeds in the beginning are better because you can use all that excess skin to your advantage and speed up later if needed. +I have had some men like very little surface area covered when I'm beating them off. For example, you can use just your thumb and trigger finger as the only part of your hand on the cock during the handjob. It looks like your signaling the ""ok"" sign. You can use that grip and twist it around the hard-on or use a steady traditional stroke. When covering very little surface are on the cock, there are times when you can stroke the head of the penis without much negative sensitivity for the man. I have made many men cum by using that two finger stroke on just the cock head. The key is to apply very little pressure by using a light grip. I was even with this one guy for a little while who could cum with me just using my thumb. He had a huge penis head that had an over exaggerated cleft underneath it. I would take my thumb and place it right in that split and rub up and down. I swear it would take him no time to spew his cum everywhere with just my thumb. I could also make him cum with just using my tongue in the same manner. +Another light surface coverage handjob technique is using all your fingers and not your palm. Take all 5 fingers and lightly put your tips all around his cock head like an octopus gripping its prey. Lightly message the head with those fingertips almost to the extent of tickling it. Use your other hand to stroke it and you can get him unloading in no time. +When talking about surface coverage, please don't forget about the balls. Now balls have a different feel for different men. Some men like when you play and jostle the balls during a handjob and some men would prefer you leave them alone. Be gentle with them no matter what you do. I like to cup the balls with one hand while I jerk my lover off. You can also rub the balls and even lightly squeeze them as you jerk him. Some guys like when you do something with the balls as he is cumming. I have told this before, but I was with this black guy who had the biggest dick I have ever seen and when he would cum, he loved when I lightly smacked his nuts as he blasted. I once asked him about it and he told me that the vibration made him cum harder. +Surface Texture +Surface texture describes the different feelings and items one can apply to an erection during a handjob that will stimulate or enhance the excitement of the recipient. Varying your surface texture can act in a dual role because not only does it excite your guy physically, but it excites mentally. There are two ways to change the surface texture and that is wear some type of glove or put something on the cock itself. +There are many types of gloves and the first type is latex or some type of rubber glove. Many men have this rubber fetish and just love the way it feels. With that and other type of tacky surfaces, always use lubrication. Other types of gloved surfaces are silk, cotton and those big furry gloves. Additionally, you can use mittens which can also be erotic. All those surfaces provide a soft feel which give your man a different feel during his handjob. +Putting various surfaces on the erection can also enhance the pleasure of a handjob. Another benefit to putting something on the cock is that it can catch or at least block the cum which prevents a mess. Once again, if your man has a rubber fetish, put a condom on his dick and it is exciting to see him fill up that reservoir tip when he orgasms. Other surfaces you can put on an erection would be different types of socks. Socks form a great tube and you can use all different sock fabrics. I personally like to use knee high nylons because they are thin enough to get a great feel on the prick and also tight enough to snug up all around the shaft. Nylon will catch the cum but doesn't hold it well because it soaks through the material very quickly. Wrap your underwear around his cock and that will also get him worked up but that is getting into fetishes and I will elaborate on that later. Whether the surface is rubber, plastic, silk, spandex, cotton, rayon, leather, shimmer, elastic, or any other type of surface, use all of them to your advantage and give your handjobs according to which ones turn your man on the most. +Fetish Inclusion +Incorporating your guy's fetish into your handjob might be the single most effective thing you can do that enhances pleasure and helps him cum quicker. It only stands to reason that if your man is stimulated mentally, the better his orgasm. A fetish is any sense that sexually excites a person. Let's review our five senses and those are touch, vision, sound, smell, and taste. So far in this writing, I have focused mostly on the physical aspect of a handjob and that would be mostly examples of touching. If I talked about all the fetishes people have, I would fill up the next 100 pages and still not be finished. I will discuss a few big ones and you can vary from there. Whenever including a fetish during your handjob, it is better to add it in the middle of it rather than start with it. This introduction adds to the shock and eroticism which can increase the speed and power of orgasm. +I have said this before but one of the biggest fetishes that men have involve or center around feet because feet represent the lowest part of a person and that thrills submissive people. When I give examples of all the sense fetishes that you can incorporate into your handjob, I will give feet examples. +Vision has the most fetishes associated with it. What men see can turn them on tremendously. Body parts such as feet, ass, toes, muscles, hands, cocks, balls, tongues, lips, etc. are popular fetishes. Apparel such as shoes, socks, underwear, jocks, suits, shorts, etc. are more fetishes. You name it, and there are some people that like it such as domination, humiliation, water sports, role play, personal actions, and many, many more. My point is to add those visual fetishes to excite your man when you give handjobs. +An example of a vision fetish added to a handjob would be letting him see your feet. Jerk him in a position so he can see your feet from different angles. You can lay on your stomach with your feet up over your head or sit across his lap so he can see your feet. You can even keep certain shoes on that he likes or you could wear the socks he likes while jacking him off. If it is a visual fetish for him, then wear it and/or let him see it frequently and from different views. +A touching fetish example while you are giving your handjob would be put your feet on his face rather than just letting him look at them. Put your arches against his lips and things like that. You could be whacking that cock and out of nowhere, put your feet up against it or wrap your toes around it. Do things out of the ordinary and implement that fetish and your man will love his handjob. +In staying with the feet theme, implementing a smell fetish is very simple. While you are jerking your man, put your feet in his face and have him smell them or grab one of your nearby shoes and make him put his face in it and wear it like a gas mask. Certain fetish smells can be a great aphrodisiac. +Taste also has a great fetish arousal for your jerk off recipient. I will be beating off my guy and slide down and put my toe in his mouth and make him suck it or hand him my sock and make him put it in his mouth. That taste fetish will make him launch his load like a rocket. +The final sense that can act as fetishes for men are sound. That mostly means dirty talk. Men love dirty talk especially if it is sincere and unique. I will be jacking off my man with lotion and I will say, ""Do you hear that slurping sound? My hand his sucking your dick!"" In sticking with the feet theme, I will say, ""Look at my feet. I have been working all day and I know you want to smell them don't you?"" The problem that most people have with dirty talk, is they aren't very creative or get embarrassed easily. If you know your guy's fetish, then the sky is the limit with topics for dirty talk. +I have used feet as my theme to describe fetishes but that is just one fetish. If you are not into feet, then use the fetishes your man likes. Be creative and implement them often. +Cum Guidance +The next topic is basically an extension from fetishes and that is cum guidance. When you are jacking your man off, you simply need a place for him to cum. Now many people reading this probably think, ""who cares"" and those are the people that probably give weak handjobs. We are human beings but I also believe we have innate animalistic tendencies. Many animals are territorial, especially males, and have the natural instinct to want to mark their territory whether it's scratching, rooting, pissing, or anything else. When a guy is sexually excited about something, he naturally can get turned on by the desire to cum on it. Why else do guys like cumming on anything? Pull up any porn site and you will see guys cumming on faces, feet, shoes, clothing, asses, panties or any other fetish object. +The key is to make it a surprise and spring it on your man as he gets closer to cumming. For example, I was with this guy one time and he was in the kitchen fixing breakfast with this shorts on. I came up behind him and pulled his shorts down and started jacking him off while he was in a standing position. As he got closer to cumming, I got next to him, pulled my shorts and underwear open and ordered him, ""to cum in my underwear"" while I was standing in front of him and he obliged me by filling up my crotch area with his sticky mess. It was very exciting. +Sometimes you are not purposely aiming his load at something and you just need somewhere for him to put it. When you are in the privacy of your own bedroom, you can make any kind of mess you choose. However, there are times where you might be on expensive furniture, have clothes on that can't get stained, or you may be in a public place and you need to ""dispose"" of the cum without any mess whatsoever. You can hold out your opposite hand to catch it or use your mouth. +If you use your hand, I recommend cupping your palm over his penis head in the beginning because the first couple of shots will most likely shoot past your hand and make a mess anyway then you can slide your hand palms up to catch the rest. I am a big cum eater so I often use my mouth. To prevent a mess, I then recommend keeping your tongue in your mouth. I will put the cock head on my bottom lip and tilt my head or mouth back, forming a pocket to catch all the cum. Sometimes he will shoot on your nose or you will get some dribble on your chin but those are easy cleanups without making a total mess. Just be sure you keep your teeth out of the way. +Most common handjob mistakes +There are some common mistakes people make when giving handjobs. The first mistake is impatience. If you are jacking your man off and he is taking longer than expected, and you show impatience, he can sense it and it will not only take him longer to cum, his orgasm won't be as good. So if you sigh really strong, keep shifting yourself forcefully, ask him to hurry up or concentrate, or hold your arm signaling it's getting tired are all mistakes made while giving handjobs. Instead of being impatient, do the opposite by telling him, ""take your time, we have all day"" or add a fetish like previously mentioned. Your attitude dictates the pleasure in the handjob. +The second mistake made is when a man is taking extra time to orgasm, the natural instinct is to either grip his cock tighter or stroke it faster. In reality, you should do the opposite. Gripping the cock tighter or jerking it faster only causes a numbing effect which makes it take longer for him to blow his load. You should either stop all together, and wait 30 seconds before starting back up or loosen your grip or slow down your jerking. Allow him to feel your hand softly and slowly which will increases his sensation that makes him cum. +The final mistake made during a handjob is changing the jerking speed, rhythm, or technique during his orgasm. Now mixing those skills up during the handjob is great and adds to excitement but when he finally gets over the edge and starts spurting, under no circumstances should you change what you are doing. Also, be sure you don't stop or slow down that exact technique until he is completely finished. +In closing, the handjob is not just the lowest form of sex if it is performed correctly and enthusiastically. Use variety and incorporate different techniques and you will be able to jerk your man off like a porn star." +376,How to Give Great Rimjobs,MarkLazer,How To,2015-03-19,2015-03-19,2022-01-04 08:31:40,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-give-great-rimjobs,A man's guide on how to give men great rimjobs.,"['Anal Play', 'Anal Sex', 'Ass', 'Ass Licking', 'Ass Play', 'Gay Sex', 'How To Gay Sex', 'Rimjob', 'Rimming']",4.59,"There are many people who find asses extremely sexy but the asshole extremely disgusting. If that area is disgusting to you and/or gay sex, then you may not want to finish reading this. An anus itself has many sensitive nerves located in areas that can provide a great deal of pleasure for your man. The two most prevalent areas are the anus entrance itself and the prostate gland located inside the anus underneath the taint area. I am going to give you some tips on how to properly approach this topic and eventually rim your man's asshole in a way that gives him the maximum amount of pleasure. The proper term for rimjob is analingus and I have rimmed plenty of asses in my day, so I want to share with you some tips and techniques that I have used so that if you are interested in rimming your man, you too will have the skills to enhance his pleasure. I believe these tips can help men and women alike. +Preparation +The first step in preparing to eat another man's ass is deciding your reason for it. There are three primary reasons you stick your tongue on a man's anus and those reasons are either to prepare him for anal sex, foreplay to stimulate him for other types of sex, or to give him a complete rimjob until he cums. Knowing the reason will help you decide the proper approach and the types of techniques you may want to apply. +The next three steps that begin a proper rimjob are cleanliness, cleanliness, cleanliness. Make sure the ass is clean. For me, without that, there is no rimjob. His ass needs to be freshly bathed and washed. I like to see a nice clean, fresh smelling, puckered rectum before my tongue gets busy. Not only does this provide you with more motivation, it is more sanitary. +For those of you who have a problem with the skin on skin contact because of sanitary reasons, there are products that can be used such as dental dam which is used in oral sex on a vagina but an alternative great technique is to put a condom on your tongue. Unroll it down your tongue and put the hardened ring in your mouth like you are sticking out your tongue to blow a bubble with chewing gum. This way, you can lick his asshole without the fear or any reservations you may have about that area. Always use a condom if you are unsure of your man's cleanliness at that particular time. +I also like the asses that I lick to be hairless. Most of the time, this isn't much of a problem but occasionally you will have to work your way through a bush the first time you rim a guy. After that first time, you can encourage him to shave. He will be more than glad to smooth it up for you because not only will he want you to do it again, it will be more pleasurable because of the added sensitivity. A really good time to lick your guy's anus is in the shower or bathtub. You not only know that it is clean, you can even shave it for him. My first experience with rimming a man was when I was young and an older gentleman that lived up the street would have me come over during the summer while his wife was at work. I would rim him and learned what he liked while he was in the shower. He taught me a lot. +I like to start a rimjob with a little foreplay to get the guy warmed up. First use your hands. Knead the ass cheeks like you would dough. If he has a muscular ass, you obviously will have to put more effort in but it is well worth it. Massage and squeeze them together. Tap or smack the cheeks depending on the guy's preference. He may even like to be spanked. Be sure you vary all your hand techniques to heighten his sexual anticipation. +The next preparatory technique is I kiss my lover's ass all around, nice and slow, while occasionally inserting my tongue just inside the crack in mostly a teasing manner. Making smacking sounds with slow kisses so he can get an added audible stimulation is always a good thing. Lots of licking will also get him sexually charged because he feels that sensitivity on his skin. I start at the top of the crack and just lick down through the butt cheeks without getting too deep. This technique will drive him crazy and make him excited and anxious for your tongue on his hole. I also start on one cheek with my kissing and then lick sideways across the crack and start kissing the other cheek. Keep your licking and kissing soft and sensual. Now that the man is about begging for his rimjob, it is time to go to work. +Try to keep your licking and kissing dry unless you are preparing your man for anal sex. If that is the case then you want to produce excessive saliva so it can be used as part of the lubrication. Another benefit of extra saliva is that initially, it produces a slight warming sensation before switching over to a cooler feeling when the air hits it and you can accelerate that cool air feeling by blowing against it. If your man is jacking off, this is a good accelerator to his orgasm. +Positions +I am going to discuss some good positions that will give your mouth the best access to your guy's asshole. I will repeat, that if you have an idea of why you're rimming him, this will also help you decide on his position. His position is also important for your comfort as well, especially if you are going to do it for an extended period of time. The key to a great time extended rimjob is that both men are physically comfortable throughout the session. +Depending on his spread or the thickness of his ass will determine if you need to manually spread his cheeks. If you do not need to spread them, then place your hands on the front of his thighs for leverage or open your hands and place directly on the cheeks so that you can go back and use your hand techniques I discussed in the preparation section. You can also use your hands on his cock by giving him a reach under jerk. If you need to spread his ass cheeks apart, you can use your four fingers on each cheek like your peeking into a window or place your entire hand on each cheek and use your thumbs to pull them apart. I use this technique most of the time. I've also had the man pull them apart himself but this can get tiring for him because his face is now on the bed. Whether you need to pull them apart or not, it's time to get his rimjob started. Here are some great positions. +The first and most common position that I am going to discuss is to have your man get on his hands and knees. I prefer my lover to be on a bed or soft surface. Have him put his hands somewhat close to his knees which will draw his ass upward and give you a better angle. You should also have him spread his knees in that positon but it isn't necessary. The best position for you is to sit down right behind him. If you are much taller than him, put some pillows under his knees to raise him up. That is much better than if you stoop down because your own comfort will help you maintain your enthusiasm. This position has other benefits as well. He is able to jack off if he desires while you are performing and you can take your time and you have great access to lick his taint and ball areas. +The next position is with him lying on his back with his legs up. You can basically divide that position two ways. He can lie completely on his back with his ass hanging over the edge of a bed or a piece of furniture. If he cannot hang his ass over the edge, then use a pillow or two under it so it will prop his ass up to the proper angle for better access. The benefit to this position is his cheeks spread apart naturally and you will have to do little work to manually hold them open. Because you don't have to use your hands to spread them, it can free them up to jerk him off while you go down like I previously mentioned. +The second similar position is with your man starting in a sitting position on a chair or any furniture with a back rest. Have your man slouch down and lay back with his knees up. This is a great position because while you are rimming the hole, your nose is very close to his balls and that musky smell from a man's balls are a great aphrodisiac for you the giver. You can also take breaks from the asshole and suck or lick on those balls or dick so when your tongue returns to that puckered bud, each time an added sensation ensues. Another bonus is he can watch you work and that visual stimulation is great for him. +Obviously this is the most recommended position if you're giving a true rimjob to completion or you're going to clean him up. No matter which of us is jacking him off, his cum will land on all over his stomach, pubic area, and shaft. This gives you the best access to clean it all up with your mouth or even if you are only going to wipe it up, this position is the least messy. +The next position is him lying flat on his stomach. This is the best position if you are going to give a long rimjob because of the comfort for both of you. I also lay on my stomach between his legs with my face buried in his ass. You can take your time and really work it over. The drawbacks to this position is you have no access to his cock or balls and it is more difficult to get to his hole. You have to press your face and spread his cheeks apart with more force. He will be very relaxed almost to the point of receiving a massage. +When I was in college, I hooked up with the large black football player and a tall basketball player and they both loved when I rimmed them. Sometimes they even (especially Dante who was the basketball player) preferred this to me sucking on their huge black dick. One time Dante laid on his stomach with his legs spread and I ate his ass for like 45 minutes. My tongue was sore for two days. +The next position is with him on his side and his legs spread like scissors. That means his under leg remains straight while he brings his top leg way up by placing his knee by his chest. He needs to slightly lean so that his stomach points downward. This is a great position to rim him with your body positioned the opposite direction of his and it is one of the top positions that give you great access to his nuts. +The next position is with him standing and putting his hands on a table or wall like you are either getting frisked by the police or a doctor is about to give you a prostate exam. Obviously, the more he bends over, the easier the access. You as the rimjob giver, will be on your knees. I advise getting something like a pillow for knee comfort if the floor is really hard. I use this position on the bed. I have my man, stand on the bed, lean over and put his hands on the head rest. The only problem is it is difficult if the guy is really tall like the 6 foot 10 guy I mentioned earlier. This is also a great position for a reach under jerk off while you munch his ass. In this position, he can take the back of your head and hold it down, pushing your face and tongue deeper in his butt. If your guy likes taking control, I suggest this position but be sure you have a safe sign so he doesn't hold you too much and suffocate you. +The next position is with him sitting on your face and riding your tongue like it's a cock. I suggest you have him on his knees and you underneath him. In this position, you can use your hands more freely to spread his cheeks and guide him so that he doesn't smash your face. This is another position you need a safe sign so he doesn't suffocate you. In my experience, I have had men get so worked up, especially when they cum, they want to sit completely down on my face so you have to be prepared for this. This is probably the best position for him to get himself off in. He can jerk off all over you the giver and he can control the depth of your tongue in his hole. It is a win/win situation. +Techniques +When I discuss techniques, I am referring to the way you can use your tongue or mouth. His pleasure will completely depend on your skills and your ability to use them in such a way on his ass. All guys are different and he will let you know what he likes best by either expressing it verbally or giving you physical cues. Your job is to pay attention to them. +The first technique I call ""the wiggle."" I place my tongue on the asshole very lightly and wiggle it up and down or side to side very quickly. By placing the tongue very lightly on the hole but using speed with the movement is very pleasuring for the man because you are really stimulating those nerve endings on the surface of the anus. Be sure you use a combination of both or make the cross sign so you don't get stuck doing the same pattern for very long. +The second technique I call ""the swirl."" I place my tongue on the hole and swirl it around in a circle. You can start the circle real small and then slightly go bigger like a tornado or you can do that in reverse by starting the swirl big and get smaller like water going down a drain. I like to end each swirl with a warm kiss directly on the hole or inserting my tongue for a moment but I will discuss that later. Some assholes have little ridges and some are very smooth and you as the rim giver can really feel the difference with this technique. +The third technique I call ""the flick."" I place my tongue somewhere on the butthole and flick it quickly upward. This technique will get the man squirming every time you hit that sensitive spot. You can use a series of slow rougher flicks or quicker softer flicks. He will love either one. At times, it is almost as though you are rolling your tongue. +The fourth technique is ""lapping"" with your tongue instead of using the tip. So far, all my licking techniques have been movements with the end of the tongue. The lapping technique is when you use the top flat part of your tongue like a dog laps up water or a cat cleans themselves. You can do this on his ass cheeks, the crack, the inside of the cheeks, or on the asshole itself. It gives your man a different feel with warmth and texture. It also cover more area at one time so you can lick his entire asshole, including the rim and bud simultaneously. I guarantee he will love it and cum harder. +The fifth technique I call the ""CPR"" technique. I actually open my mouth and place my lips completely around the anus like I'm giving it mouth to mouth resuscitation. I seal my lips all the way around it and suck before using my tongue once again. If you give a popping sound when you release your mouth, your lover is more audibly stimulated because it sounds like you are eating his asshole. Any sense of his you can enhance is more erotic. +The last technique I like to use is called ""the dart."" This is where you use your tongue to dart or penetrate inside the asshole like your fucking it. In my mind, I am fucking the hole with my tongue. If you ask any guy who has had the pleasure of one of my rimjobs, they will tell you this is my signature closing technique. I like to end the rimjob with this technique especially if the guy is going to cum while I rim him. If he is jacking himself off or I'm doing it for him and I hear the cue, ""I'm goin to cum"" I like to stick my tongue as far in his butthole as I can get it and leave it there until the point where he blows his wad. The warm spongy feeling of your tongue provides an added stimulation just inside the nerve endings located inside the anus to enhance the power of his orgasm. I try to at least penetrate the hole a couple of inches. You can actually feel his sphincter twitch around your tongue with each ejaculation. +I swear once when I was rimming this guy while he lay on his back, I stuck my tongue in him and he shot at least three times over his own head and it landed on the wall and headboard of the bed. He said he had never cum that hard in his life. This is a common occurrence during a true rimjob. +Obviously you will use these techniques in a series or a combination of them. Hopefully these techniques can help you eat your man's ass like a pro so that he and you can enjoy the sexual thrill together. If you can give him a great rimjob, I guarantee at the very minimum, he will be hard as a rock. As long as he is clean and you are enthusiastic, rimming can be a very exciting part of your sex life." +377,How to Give Head,BlondNDesirable,How To,2013-02-20,2013-02-20,2022-01-04 08:31:41,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-give-head,The art of giving a good blowjob.,"['Blowjob', 'Oral Sex', 'Swallowing']",4.68,"OK, this is for the ladies out there. Well, really for the women and the men, as you'll see. +Here's the thing. I love (LOVE) giving blowjobs. Nothing sexier to me. I have literally had orgasms while going down on a guy - it turns me on that much. But....lean in a little closer here...I have a secret to share. I, um, well don't really like the taste of cum that much. I, know, I know just shoot me (ha). Actually I guess I should say I like the taste more than I did. But it's still not my favorite. Many of my female friends would probably say the same thing. Look, semen tastes strange. It does. It's really salty and powerful. It has an odd consistency. It's kind of messy. There can be a lot of it. Don't believe me, guys? Well, next time you are masturbating, just shoot a blast into your hand and lick it up. Tastes a bit sour, no? +OK, I said it. It's out there. But yet....I love swallowing. LOVE! It is unbelievably sexy to me, and I wouldn't miss it for the world. And to all the women out there who don't like giving head, and hate the taste of cum...I'm here to tell you that you can have the second part, and still love the first. I'm living proof. +So what's my secret? Well, two things. First off, I really get into it. I completely let myself go. It's OK to feel slutty and sexy and hot while you are doing it. Let the icky factor turn you on. I mean come on, you have a guy's hard dick in your mouth. He's all sweaty. Your pussy is getting wet. It's primal. It's dirty and sexy as hell. Let those feelings overwhelm you. +Second? - Mouthwash. +OK, stop laughing. I'm not kidding. And I don't mean after. Nope. I mean before. Here's the thing about mouthwash - it has alcohol in it, and flavoring, and it kills germs and for a short period of time pretty much numbs all of your taste buds. Plus your breath smells and tastes good. So use it....use it for a while (or all the time) until the mental hurdle becomes less and less, then maybe (like me at least a good deal of the time) you won't need it at all. +Because here's the thing....women if you really want to be a good lover and you really care about pleasing your partner...then you should swallow. Period. Anything else is telling your partner that something he does, with sex, is gross. Now I'm not saying there aren't lines you shouldn't cross. If your partner wants to piss all over you, and you find that disgusting (my hand is raised here), I'm not saying that you should grin and bear it. It's OK to have some lines that you don't cross. But I'm sorry - not swallowing shouldn't be one of them. Well, let me back off that a little....at the VERY LEAST you should always let the guy cum in your mouth. And really if you are going to do that, then swallowing should be the next step. But the bare minimum must include letting him shoot his cum in your mouth. Anything less is - frankly - insulting and selfish, and those are two things that you should never, ever, EVER have associated with sex. I mean look, if I ever date a guy and he won't perform oral sex on me....well, we don't date very long (i.e. not after I find that out). It comes with the territory here - pun intended. If a guy thinks that sticking his tongue up inside my pussy when it's wet is gross....well, then that's his call, but it's then my call to kick him to the curb. +But it goes both ways. How can I expect a man to keep wanting to date me, if I don't/won't give him a blowjob? Not doing so, as I said before, is tantamount to me saying that his cum is gross, or that licking his dick is wrong. It's crazy. If you don't like giving blowjobs, then either date an ultra conservative who only believes in intercourse, date a guy who can't get an erection, or go lesbian. Those are your options. And if you are going to give a guy head, how can you even consider not letting him cum in your mouth? Seriously? It would be like letting a guy lick you, and right as you start to cum, he just pulls away and stands there and watches. Huh? What's sexy about that? What's erotic or selfless about that? Nothing, nothing and nothing. +So, here's where mouthwash comes in. Ladies - decide that you are going to give you guy a blowjob, and go rinse your mouth out with mouthwash. Then go get him. You have about ten minutes before the effects fully wear off, and most guys won't last a full ten minutes....not if you know what you are doing. Of course I don't use the mouthwash right away. And to understand why, let me tell you how I like to give head. +To start with, I let him know right away that I want to suck his cock. I use dirty words. I let him know I feel slutty. This is not about me sucking him a little then having his cock in my pussy. Sure, that's OK, but I'm talking about wanting to just give a blowjob here. Kiss your man. Nibble on his ear, or lick his neck. Do what you know turns him on. Then whisper to him, ""God I want to suck your cock right now. I've been thinking about it all day. Picturing your hard cock moving in and out of my wet mouth. My pussy was so wet today imagining it."" Use hot words. Let yourself get wet while you are saying it. And let him know, in no uncertain terms, what you plan on doing with his cum. My favorite things to say: +""I can't wait to suck your cock and swallow your hot cum."" To the point and sexy. No ambiguity. +""Oh God, I can feel how hard you are. I can't wait to wrap my lips around your cock and suck every last drop of your hot cum into my stomach."" +Or my favorite: +""I want to suck your cock so badly, but only on two conditions,"" I say as I'm licking on his ear. ""One - that you'll cum in my mouth, and two - that you promise, and I mean PROMISE, that you'll make me swallow every fucking drop."" Yeah, that's hot. I know (ha). +Say these things or something like them. Be a slutty cock sucker. It's OK. It doesn't make you a bad person. It's sex. It should turn him on (and you). So then I build up the tension. He knows that he's getting his dick sucked. He knows I want it. He knows I'm going to swallow him. Those things....um....well, they tend to turn a guy on. They tend to make his cock really hard. Ladies - those are good things. So then I make him wait, while I increase his arousal. I take off his shirt. I kiss his nipples. I take of my shirt. I let him lick my now rock hard nipples. While he does, I let him know how much that turns me on, and I whisper that I bet his cock is rock hard, and that I can't wait to use my mouth on it. Sometimes he'll get excited and start to try and take my pants off, or put his hand down into my panties, but at times like this, I stop him. This is about him...not me. I want to bring him off, not have him do the same to me (again, at times it's OK, but I'm talking about just wanting to suck his cock). +So then I take off his pants. Slowly. First I rub my face all over the hard cock that wants to badly to get out of his pants. I kiss it through his jeans or shorts, or slacks. I run my hand over it. I whisper more dirty things ""What's this in your pants? Is that your hard cock? You're naughty to have such a hard cock. You must really want that cock sucked to have it be so hard."" It's simple really. Keep him turned on. Let him know that this is turning you on just as much. When I take his pants off, I leave on his boxers at first (and guys - please - either boxers or a cool kind of underwear...no tighty whitees...ha). Now his cock has room to be fully extended, but he's still clothed. Now I can rub the soft cloth of his boxers over his cock. Now I can cup his balls through the fabric. And now, I can see how much precum has poured out of his cock. +And that's a HUGE turn-on for me. When I take his pants off I get the evidence of the work I've done. Look, most guys will have precum develop even at the hint of having sex. It's biological. The stuff comes out to create lubrication for sex. But when you turn them on. When you build up their desire....boy, it pours out. You take off their pants, and their boxers have a huge wet stain on them. When I see that, my pussy literally starts leaking it turns me on so much. +And here's why I don't use the mouthwash at first....because precum....well, it actually tastes pretty good. It's sweet. For the life of me I'll never understand why that liquid can taste so completely different than semen itself, but it does. So ladies....no excuses here. Go after their precum. When I see this, I'll dip my nose into the wetness on his boxers. Then I like to find the opening and whisper something like ""I'm not the only one getting wet here am I?"" and then I lick it up...slowly. I slurp at it. I let him know that I'm sucking up the fluid coming out of his cock and taking it onto my tongue and in my mouth and swallowing it. I want him to know that. It turns him (and me) on even more. That's my goal. Sometimes I'll dip my finger in it and pull it up to my mouth. It's stringy and will dangle from my finger down to his cock. I'll lick it off my finger then follow the trail back down to the head of his cock where more of the tasty stuff waits. +But I'm not done. Now I'll lick down his legs a little. Kiss under his knees. Then I gently slide his boxers off.....and tease him some more. I lick up into his crotch where his legs attach. I kiss up around his pubic hair. And I lick his balls. I don't spend too much time there, because honestly, his balls aren't typically that sensitive....but it's sexy. So while I lick them I'll say things like ""I love licking your balls. I know how much cum is in them, and I can't wait to feel it shooting down my throat."" By now there's even more precum, and his dick is fully in view. Now it's time to compliment him, ladies. Tell him how hard he is. Tell him how big his cock is (even if it's not, or not as big as others you've seen....it's big now, and that's what matters). Keep telling him how hot this is making you. +Then I slowly lick up his shaft, and when I get to the head I (once again) drink in his large pool of precum. Then I tell him how good it tastes (and say again that I can't wait to taste all of his cum as it shoots into my mouth). Then, I like to take his hand and take one of his fingers and slide it up hard along the shaft, which brings out a huge glob of precum. I'll giggle and say, ""Is that all for me?"" and then lick it up and swallow it. Again, this stuff tastes sweet. It's fun to do. Your taste buds actually like it, and by now your man is squirming. I lick around his cock and up and down, and lick his head. +So now it's ready for the main course. Ladies, some of you can do the mouthwash before anything happens. That's fine, but it will wear off a little and you won't taste his precum at all. So at this point, I'll say something like, ""stay here...I'll be right back. Stroke your cock for me and get me more of that sweet fluid to drink"" and I'll dart in the bathroom and very quietly swish some mouthwash. Not so that he hears it. When I walk back I'll say something like ""I needed some water cause I'm so fucking hot sucking you like this."" Whatever....at this point, he's just dying to have my mouth on his cock. But I've now numbed my taste buds. It's go time. +So then it's kind of simple. You lick him a little, take him in your mouth and suck on him. Use your tongue on the part just below his head (that's where his nerves are). I like to bob my head a few times, and then just stop right there and swirl my tongue back and forth without moving. It drives them wild (and warning, sometimes they will cum right there...just be ready in case it happens). I like to lick slowly at first. Make sure to keep your teeth back...grazing him with the edges or your teeth does not feel good. Do what feels natural. Moan. Let him know you are enjoying it. +If he can last a while, then great. Finally I'll pull off him, look up and with my sexiest voice (and a soaking pussy) I'll say something like ""I want your cum so fucking bad. Please shoot your hot cum into my mouth. Please! I'm begging you to let me swallow your cum."" It's fast and slutty what I say, but I'm letting him know that the end is near. That the next time I take my mouth off his cock will only be after I've swallowed every single drop of his cum. Then I go to town. I lick fast and furiously. I moan like crazy. I like to take one hand as well and very softly tickle the end of his balls....letting him know with my hands that I want all the cum that's building up in them. +And you can tell when it's about to happen. His breathing will increase. If his inhibitions are gone (and they should be) he'll talk to you. Tell you how hot you are. Tell you how good his cock looks in your mouth. Tell you what a good cocksucker you are, and how much he's about to cum. Then typically he'll yell out or scream ""Oh God,"" or ""I'm cuming,"" or just ""Fuck, fuck, fuck."" Sometimes you get a quiet one, but even then you'll feel their cock start to twitch. +And then I slide his cock until just the head is in, and (here's a tip), I pull my tongue back up and curl it a little, so that it's not under his cock any more. Now his cock literally explodes in your mouth. Cum blasts out, and then again, then again. Really fast at first, and thick. If you haven't used mouthwash, the change in flavor is dramatic. As I said, much more bitter. More salty. If you have...well, you can't really taste anything (and that's the point - there's no more gross factor for you). Of course now there is physics at play here. Your mouth is filling with his cum, and there's not a ton of room in there. This is why you pull your head up before he cums so that you create a little more space. Let him shoot about 5 or so blasts, and then just contract the back of your throat and swallow it down. Good, first wave is sliding down your throat now...but more is coming out. That's good too. If you've done your job, he'll cum a great deal. That should turn you on. It's ALL because of you. So swallow again, and now you can start moving your head again. He's still cumming, but it's slowing even more now, and you can coax it out with your moving mouth. Now I just let it fill up, and wait, and then I'll pull my mouth off completely and give my first good (and quick) swallow, before immediately putting him back in and sucking some more for those last amounts. Remember I told him I would suck every drop. +So a guy's cock gets really sensitive after this, and eventually he will pull you off him (after say 5 seconds or so) because it's just too much. What I like to do then is look up at him with a big smile and lick my lips a little for any that might have slipped out and swallow. Then I'll run my hand up his cock just a little so some more appears at the top of his cock, and then quickly flash down and suck that up. He'll pull back because it's still sensitive, and I'll laugh and say ""Hey, you promised you would make me swallow it all."" At this point he should pull you up and tell you how awesome you are. +When you are done, make sure you let him know how much you liked it. The end game matters here. Kiss him and say, ""Thank you for letting me swallow your hot cum. God I love how good it feels sliding down my throat."" or ""Your cum tastes so fucking good. God that was so hot."" Let him know this was not a chore....and that you'll be back for more! +OK, so that's the basics. Now a few other things. +First to the men: +1) As I said, you better be prepared to return the favor. If I'm going to work to make you cum more than you ever have, and swallow it all down, then you better be ready to lick my pussy, stick your tongue way up in me (tongue fucking is always hot) and make me cum like a mad person. Period. This is a two way street. Otherwise, you get one blowjob from me and one only. +2) Don't force your cock into our mouths. Don't. Let us take charge. You can run your hands through my hair. You can hold my head while I bob up and down, even moving with my rhythm, but don't force your cock down my throat. Many of us don't like that, or can't do it, or have gag reflexes. I knew a girl who was giving a blow job while a little buzzed, and he grabbed her head and shoved his cock into the back of her throat and she got sick right there. Not fun! If your girl likes to deep throat, or can, let her take you there. Not the other way. +3) If we are going to treat your cum like it's candy, then you better not be disgusted by it. Let me say the QUICKEST way for me to want to give a guy another blowjob is when I'm done for him to pull me up and make out with me. God that is sexy. Let's him know that he knows the taste is a little odd, but that he's OK with that, and that he's appreciative of what I've just done. One boyfriend in college would always say, ""I love kissing you after you've swallowed my cum."" He would say that and I immediately wanted to suck him again. Man, why did that relationship have to end? Ha. +So ladies, once you've gotten your technique down, you can do more things. You can use the mouthwash before you even start, or an hour before. Sort of ease your way into the taste of his cum. Now there are some times when I don't use it at all, and even though I still don't like the taste, I try to turn that into a strength. I tell myself how slutty I'm being - getting all wet and hot knowing that I'm about to let a guy blast his cum into my mouth. +And try different things: +* If he's standing up...make sure you look up at him when he cums. Show him with your eyes how fucking hot he's making you. +* Let him fuck your face. Be careful here, because he could gag you...but just get a pillow under your head and make sure you have some room. The fact is, most guys won't want to fuck all the way down your throat. That doesn't feel very good for them. They like the spit and wetness, and they'll be pulling back and forth. The best part here is that you can now reach up with both hands to caress his balls. Also, one thing to know is that often when this happens they will push forward as they cum, which makes it harder to swallow....just be prepared and ready to move your head back a little more. +* Have him stand up and when he cums tell him to pull out and shoot it directly into your mouth like they do in porn movies. It's not as hot for me....but many times they will like it. +* Let him cum in your mouth, but don't swallow. Tell him before that you're going to hold it all. Then look up at him and show him all that cum in your mouth and then close your lips and swallow it with a lusty stare (here's where mouthwash really helps). +* Have him cum on your breasts, and then slowly lick it up with your fingers while he plays with your clit (I had one of the strongest orgasms in my life the first time I did this). +* My favorite.....when a guy is fucking me, every now and then I'll whisper in his ear something like ""Yes. Fuck me with your hard cock. It feels so good. But when you cum, I want you to pull out and cum in my mouth. I want to swallow your hot cum and lick my wet pussy off your cock. Fuck me and cum down my throat."" Sometimes I'll even tell him that before we fuck, but I like to be spontaneous (even though I might have sneaked in some mouth wash that he doesn't know about). But it's super hot to have him pull out, and when he sticks his cock in the first thing I taste is my pussy and his precum, both of which are sweet. If I haven't used mouthwash, when he comes it's such a contrast, and dirty and hot as hell. If I'm really, really into the guy, and feeling super slutty, I'll even let him cum inside me, then have him either use his fingers to feed me his cum, or tell him to pull out his dick so I can lick him clean (and do it more than once). +The guy I knew in college would fuck me and sometimes he would say to me, ""Where do you want me to cum? You want my cum in your hot pussy or down your fucking throat?"" God that turned me on. Usually I would say, ""You pick,"" and he would almost always say, ""I want to cum in that hot mouth of yours and have you taste your pussy while you swallow every drop,"" because....duh...what guy doesn't want his girlfriend/partner/wife to swallow his cum in the hottest way possible. Why did I not end up with that guy again? +Happy sex to everyone!" +378,How To Give Your 1st Blow Job,Dayguy,How To,2005-06-17,2005-06-30,2022-01-04 08:31:42,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-give-your-1st-blow-job,1. How to please another man and yourself. 2. How to give another man maximum oral pleasure.,"['Go Slowly', 'Make You That You Unzip Him.', 'On Your Knees', 'Rub His Crotch First', 'Tell Him How Good His Cock Looks', 'Wet You Lips As You Look At It.']",4.42,"This is a short ""HOW TO"" for a man who desires to give another man a blow job. Because I have done this a times now I wanted to share what I feel made it a great experience for me and the other man. +First, how to find your man! +I met all 4 men on line in local chat rooms that were specifically for m2m chat. Make sure that they are the age that you desire, in my case I wanted them to be about 50 years old or more. Be very clear about what you want and avoid what you don't desire to happen. I wanted only to give a blow job and not receive one. Most of the men that I chatted with desired to suck me also, that was not what I desired so I moved on. Explain to each guy that you feel okay about that you are looking only to suck his cock, not to be sucked. Give it time and you will find your man. +Second, meet in public place first. +Meet in a safe place first to see in your new friend is what you expected, if he is not, leave. If you like what you see and the chat over coffee goes well, make plans to meet again. Meet at his place or yours, do not do this in public or in a car....eek! Find a guy who can host if that's what you desire, it will make the experience very relaxed and much more fun for you. The ""real"" meeting. If you both agree to meet again, this time it's for real. If you want to back out, the time is now. +Third, What to do when you meet. +Discuss in advance who will be in charge and if he desires anything special. He may want you to spend more time on his balls, or not touch them at all, find out. When we met he wanted me to kneel and rub his crotch for the start of things. I enjoyed this because it gave me a feel, not pun intended, of his size and girth. Make sure that you unzip him slowly as he watches you. Unbutton his pants and slowly unzip him until his pants fall from his hips. He will step out of his pants, and he may or may not have underwear on. This point is critical as he wants you to show how happy that you are with his cock and the way it looks. A simple, ""I love your cock, it's so fat"" as you lick your lips will do very well. +Fourth, ask before you proceed. +""I love your cock, may I lick the head"", always worked for me. With my last guy I asked, ""would you rub your cock on my face please"". He loved it and so did I. +Fifth, go slowly and enjoy the fun. +I like to slowly lick the head as it hangs down in front of me. Tease him a bit, never rush or it will be no fun at all. Tease his cock slowly just like you would enjoy having your cock teased. +I look at that large head and I give one slow wet lick and than smell his cock so that he notices me inhaling his manly odor. If he hold his cock up for you move closer so that it rubs against your face and just moan, he'll get the hint. +When he has rubbed it on your face long enough put out your tongue and lick his shaft softly from his balls to the head of his cock. Most men like to have you do this as you hold their ass cheeks and not holding their cocks. +Sixth, i'ts time to stop teasing you man. +I like to look up at him and rub his thighs and stomach up to his chest as I ask him if I can suck his cock now. I'll ask him if he wants to sit or lay down, he may want to continue standing. ""Promise not to cum to fast, I'd like to take my time"", I say as I take him in my mouth. +I take one of his hands and put it on the back of my head to guide me to what he desires as I put my other hands under his balls and softly cradle them. I avoid holding his cock with my hand because I want him to feel that he is control, and it's a much better visual for him to see his whole cock sliding in and out of my mouth without my hand in the way. +End of part 1, your comments are appreciated. + +" +379,How To Go Green For Earth Day?,andtheend,How To,2010-04-11,2010-04-11,2022-01-04 08:31:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-go-green-for-earth-day,"Cheap things to save money, while helping to save the planet.","['Conservationism', 'Ecology', 'Farm Stand', 'Gas Station', 'Homeless', 'Landfills', 'Newspapers', 'Public Transportation', 'Recycle', 'Shotgun']",3.5,"Cheap things that you can do now to save money and save the planet. +1\. Install solar panels, a tankless water heater, and buy an alternative energy vehicle. +The above items, installing solar panels and a tankless water heater and buying an alternative energy vehicle are certainly not cheap things to do for the sake of saving money, although, without doubt, they will save you money. Nonetheless, with the initial outlay of cash, it will take you some time to get your money back from the investment. Yet, there are other ways that are cheaper to not only go green without breaking your budget and make you feel better about yourself in the process, by doing your part to save the planet, but also that will save you some money in the process. +You don't need to add solar panels to the roof of your house, or burden yourself with the expense of investing in a tankless water heater, or even going through the expense of selling or trading in your car for a more fuel efficient one. In these times of disruptive and life altering recessionary transitions of high unemployment and home foreclosures, there are many smaller and less expensive ways to change your lifestyle, save you some money, and help to save the planet, all at the same time. +""What's Tommy doing up on the roof with all those mirrors? What's he up to now?"" The first neighbor watched Tommy carefully positioning mirrors at the perfect angles to attract the sun to his roof. +""Oh, he's determined to go green and save money,"" said a second neighbor taking a sip of his coffee, while watching Tommy putting the mirrors in place on his roof. +""The man's an idiot,"" said a third neighbor. ""After he set his car on fire trying to burn trash for fuel, instead of gasoline, this time, he thinks he fabricated some homemade solar panels to save some money. He got a quote from the solar panel dealer and they were too expensive, so he figured he'd make his own. Commendably, he's trying to save money by heating his house with the sun and helping to save the planet by reducing his carbon foot print at the same time,"" said the third neighbor. +""Heating his house? Those aren't solar panels. Those are mirrors. He won't heat his house, he'll set it on fire,"" said the first neighbor. ""He'll burn it to the ground."" +""I know. Live and learn. I told him that, but he wouldn't listen to me,"" said the second neighbor. ""Go figure."" +""Maybe I should get some marshmallows,"" said the third neighborhood. ""We can have a barbeque, later."" +""Maybe we should just alert the fire department,"" said the first neighbor. ""They'll talk some sense in him, before it's too late."" +2\. Instead of asking for paper over plastic, just bring your own bags to the supermarket. +Going to the supermarket? Ask for paper instead of plastic or even better, take your reusable bags with you. You won't save any money but it will help to save the planet. If we all did that, at the very least, used paper instead of plastic or our own reusable bags, we'd notice the difference. +""Well, I may not be saving money, Gloria,"" said Tommy, ""but I'm saving the planet by using our own reusable grocery bags, instead of using the paper or plastic bags from the supermarket."" +""Speaking of groceries,"" said Gloria looking in the back seat of the car. ""Where are the groceries?"" +His wife shot him a look of disbelief, as this wasn't the first time he's done something as stupid as this. +""Shit, I was so focused on bagging my own groceries that I forgot to put them in the car. They're still in the carriage at the supermarket parking lot."" +""Not anymore, you moron,"" said his wife. ""They're gone. Someone took them, no doubt."" +3\. Use newspapers for packaging, instead of bubble wrap or Styrofoam. +Packing a package to send to grandma? Be kind to our landfills and save a few dollars at the same time by not buying bubble wrap and Styrofoam. Use crumpled newspapers, instead. Besides saving money and helping to save the environment, Grandma may get a kick out of reading your local news, even if it is a bit dated. If we all recycled our newspapers, we'd save tens of thousands of trees each year. +""George, come look at this,"" said Tommy's grandmother to her husband, Tommy's grandfather. +""What is it?"" +""Tommy used all these crumpled up newspapers to cushion our Christmas gifts, instead of wasting money on bubble wrap and Styrofoam and I started reading some of them."" +""So? He's concerned about the environment, no doubt, and he's doing his part to help save the planet. I'm proud of my grandson for doing his fair share. He's always been a good boy."" +""Yeah, but there's a police report here in the newspaper that he was arrested for soliciting a prostitute last month. Seems like he's not such a good boy after all."" +4\. Plan your car trips. +Instead of hopping in your car to run your errands daily, group your errands together and go out twice or once a week, instead of every day. The money you'd save on gasoline alone, not to mention the wear and tear on your car is well worth the extra planning. +""Honey, hurry, my water just broke. The baby is coming. My contractions are every few minutes. We need to go to the hospital."" +""Gees, Hon, ordinarily, I'd take you to the hospital, if I could,"" said Tommy turning to look at the calendar mounted on the refrigerator, ""but I'm not scheduled to go out to run errands until tomorrow. Sorry. Why don't you sit down and keep your legs together?"" +""Keep my legs together? That's what I should have done nine months ago and that's what I may do from now on, after the baby is born. This is an emergency, you fool. Get in the car and drive me to the hospital now."" +5\. Use public transportation, instead of your car. +When taking a trip or commuting to work, think of taking the bus. +""Gees, we're packed in like sardines on this smelly, hot bus. I've never seen it so crowded,"" said Tommy to the passenger standing beside him. +It was so crowded that he struggled to put his arm down from holding onto the overhead railing to reach for his wallet to retrieve his bus pass. Just as the bus was leaving for the next stop, he looked out the bus window in time to see a homeless man holding his missing wallet, after having pick pocketed it. +6\. Then, again, there's always carpooling. +""Okay, who farted?"" Tommy opened his window and waved his hand in front of his nose, while everyone in the car looked at one another laughing and without confessing, who had passed gas. ""Did you have tacos for dinner last night, Glen?"" He looked at his neighbor sitting next to him in time to catch him laughing. +7\. Get fresh air and exercise by riding a bike, instead of driving your car. +Instead of driving your car everywhere, alternate. Walk or ride a bike on those nice days that you don't need to drive. You'll not only help to save the planet but also you'll improve your health by getting some exercise. Who knows, maybe you'll even shed a few pounds? +""God damn it!"" +""Gees, you're always so tense, Tommy,"" said his co-worker. "" What's the matter, now? It's a beautiful day, what could possibly be wrong?"" +""Someone stole my bike,"" said Tommy looking up at the bright, blue sky that was suddenly giving way to dark, grey clouds, just as it started to rain. That's just great. It's raining and my umbrella and raincoat were in my saddlebag on my stolen bike."" +8\. Even when you must take your car, you can still walk part of the way. +Even if you feel the need to take your car, park it at a distance from where you need to go and walk the rest of the way. You'll be surprised, what you'll save on gasoline and the health benefits will add up quickly. +""Honey, why park way over here, when the mall is way over there?"" +""We're not going to that mall. I thought we'd walk to the one across town."" +""Are you nuts? That's three miles there and three miles back."" +""I know. C'mon, I'll race you."" +9\. A well maintained automobile will not only be safer but also save you on gas. +Check your tire pressure. You'd be surprised by not only how much less gas your car will use in better rolling resistance running on properly inflated tires but also your tires will handle better, stop the car in shorter distances, and your tires will last longer, too. +""What the Hell? Hey, this inflation machine is deflating my tires instead of inflating them,"" said Tommy to the gas station attendant. +""Can't you read, buddy? There's a sign that reads the machine is broken."" +Tommy looked for a sign, before looking down on the ground. +""Oh, you mean, this sign that's on the ground face down?"" +10\. Let in the sunshine. +Open your blinds and drapes and let in the sunshine. Take advantage of the sun's natural energy, whenever you can. You'd be surprised how quickly the sun's solar energy can heat up a room, reduce your heating costs, and make you feel better, all at the same time. Sunshine is free. It's all that home heating oil, gas, and electricity that cost you money. The natural energy from the sun is the way our ancestors stayed warm and what we can do, too. +""Ding dong!"" +Tommy stepped from the shower, grabbed a towel, and tied it around himself, before opening his front door. A policeman with a stern face greeted him at the door. +""What seems to be the problem, Officer?"" +""We've had reports that you've been flashing your neighbors."" +""Flashing my neighbors? Oh,"" said Tommy in a quandary and nearly losing his towel to scratch his head. ""I opened the blinds to let the sun in and I didn't realize that--"" +""We've heard that excuse before, sir. I'll let you off with a warning this time. Unless you're fully dressed, make sure you close your blinds."" +11\. More efficient energy conserving light bulbs will save you money. +Use energy conserving light bulbs. Not only will you save money on your electric bill but also you'll save much needed energy for the planet. +""Gees, look at all these different kind of light bulbs. Which one do I buy? Holy shit, look at the prices on some of these things."" +12\. Save electricity by turning off energy zapping electronics. +Not going to be home? At work all day? Are you going away for the weekend? Are you taking a vacation for the week up at that cabin by the lake? Then, unplug all those electronics that zap and use your precious electricity. In the course of a year, you'd be surprised how much you'll save in electrical costs. +""Honey, get up. We overslept again,"" said Tommy shaking his wife, Gloria, awake. +""What time is it?"" +""It's 10am and we're both late for work. This is the last time I unplug everything,"" said Tommy jumping out of bed. ""I had to reset the cable, the TV, the computer, and the clocks on the microwave, the stove, and the DVD player. I must have forgotten to reset the alarm clock. This is nuts. It just isn't worth it."" +13\. Buy fruits and vegetables from a local farmer. +Support local farmers by buying fresher, cheaper, and better produce from them than from the big supermarkets. Helping to support local farmers by buying fruits and vegetables from them helps everyone. +""Well, hello cutie pie. If I knew the farmer's daughter was so pretty, I'd have shopped at your local farm stand long ago, instead of going to the supermarket."" +Tommy looked long and hard at the young, blonde, and buxom woman. She was so beautiful. Much like the woman in the Cool Hand Luke movie, the one where she's washing the car and getting lots of soap suds all over her nearly naked body, she was so sexy. Wearing Daisy Duke shorts and an unbuttoned top that was tied at the bottom and that barely confined her big, braless breasts, he couldn't stop leering at her. +""I'd be careful runnin' off your mouth like that with compliments, Mister, if I was you,"" she said spitting out a gob of tobacco. ""He doesn't take kindly to strangers being too friendly, especially if those strangers are city slickers. He doesn't like city slickers,"" she said looking over her shoulder at the man sitting on a tree stump and holding a shotgun. +""Oh, sorry, is that your grandfather over there?"" +""Grandpa? Nope,"" she said with a laugh, while shaking her head. +""Sorry, I meant no disrespect to your Daddy?"" +""Daddy? Shucks,"" she said looking down, while twirling her shoeless toe in the dirt, ""You sure are a funny one, Mister. I may be a bit backward never havin' been formally schooled but, I don't reckon I'd be havin' sex with my Daddy,"" she said showing a toothless smile before looking over her shoulder at the man sitting on the stump. ""That there's my husband, my jealous husband."" +13\. Buy organic fruits and vegetables. +Although they may cost a bit more, eat organic fruits and vegetables, whenever you can. No one needs to consume all those pesticides and synthetic growth hormone chemicals that the big fruit and produce companies use to unnaturally grow their fruit and produce to larger sizes for bigger profits. +""Gees, how much are these apples? They look a little puny to me,"" said Tom taking a bite out of one. ""I'm used to the bigger and shinier ones they have at the supermarket."" +""They're organic,"" said the produce clerk. ""They don't have all the growth hormones that cause birth defects and pesticide chemicals that cause cancer."" +""I don't get what all the fuss is about. They don't taste as good as the non- organic ones. They're not as flavorful."" +""That's what Snow White said before she ate the poison apple that the wicked witch gave her, the one grown from synthetic growth hormones and covered in pesticides and that nearly killed her. You're going to have to pay for that apple you took a bite out of, by the way."" +""I'll take a dozen of these organic apples,"" said Tom. +14\. Use what Grandma used to use. +Instead of using toxins in spray cans with a laundry list of chemicals that you can't pronounce and don't know what they are and what adverse affects they may have on you and on the environment, that is, until it's too late, return to the good old days of cleaning your house with the trusted and proven non- toxic things that your grandmother and her mother before her used. Baking soda, ammonia, peroxide, and white vinegar are miracle cleaners that can clean practically anything. +""Honey,"" said Tom, ""your teeth are really white but you taste like the smell, when I clean out the coffeepot."" +""Oh, I've been using a mixture of baking soda and peroxide to brush my teeth, instead of using expensive chemically laden toothpaste."" +15\. Stop wasting food. +Hey, don't throw away those food scraps. Stop feeding all that wasted food to Fido. Put it out back in your compost pile. Organic and non-toxic, your plants will show how much they like your garbage by blooming for you next season. +""Hey, Tommy, where'd you get all those trees in your backyard?"" +""Trees? Oh, those aren't trees, those are my sunflowers."" +""Sunflowers? Really, how'd you get them to grown so tall?"" +""Organic apples. I figured the plants would like them better than I did and I was right."" +16\. Recycle. +If you're not already recycling, recycle. It's not just cans and bottles that can be recycled. You can recycle practically anything and everything. From bottles, to plastic, to paper and cardboard, to cans, and even unwanted electronics. You'd be amazed to know how much energy savings you can do by recycling one bottle or can. +17\. Only, there's a limit to recycling. +There are limits and laws, even, to what you can and cannot recyle. +""Tommy, where are you going with my mother? Put her down."" +""I'm taking her to the dump. I figured I'd recycle her. She's dead anyway."" +""Put her down, now. I've already called 911. Once the doctor signs the death certificate, she'll be released to the funeral home."" +18\. Unfortunately or fortunately, you can't recycle everything. +Recycled paper is cheaper to make than paper from wood pulp. Save a tree and use recycled paper. Moreover, don't throw out that paper, turn it over and write on the other side of it. You can use it as scrap. Matter of fact, whenever you can, use a dry erase board, instead of paper. We're talking about saving trees here and it starts with one piece of paper at a time and it starts with one person. It starts with you. Multiple that one piece of paper by all the people in the world and by all the paper that we waste in just a day, well, you get my point. +""I know you're trying to save money, as well as helping to save the planet, Tommy, but this is ridiculous. This is going too far. I'm not going to reuse your used toilet paper."" +""The other side is still clean, Gloria. See?"" +""Eww. Gross. Flush it, Tommy. That's just disgusting and the smell is so nasty. I'm not making you tacos anymore."" +19\. Save water. +Use low flow showerheads. C'mon, seriously, no one needs to take a shower that feels like a fireman is holding a fire hose on you. If the money you'll save at the end of the year by using less water isn't enough, with droughts and water shortages expected over many parts of the planet in just a few short years, the water you'll save for the rest of us should be enough to make you switch. +""Look Gloria, it's raining."" +""So? Where're you going, Tommy?"" +""I'm going outside to take a shower. Those low flow showerheads really suck. It takes me twice the time to rinse off the soap."" +""You can't go outside naked? You'll be arrested."" +20\. It's not your father's car anymore. +Ready to buy a new car? Think about an alternative fuel vehicle. The electric and hybrid cars are not only cheaper to run but also better than the cars that preceded them. Even Uncle Same is ready to reward your green nature and frugal ways in using less fossil fuels with a tax credit. +""Did you hear about Tommy?"" +""No, what did he do now?"" +""He bought a Toyota Prius,"" said the first neighbor. +""Yeah, so. Don't tell me it was one of those cars that was recalled,"" said the second neighbor. ""Did he crash it, when his brakes failed?"" +""Nah, not that,"" said the first neighbor. ""I'm mean, yeah, he did that, too, and he is suing Toyota."" +""It's always something with him,"" said the second neighbor. ""What else happened to him?"" +""He used the tax credit that the government offered for driving an alternative fuel vehicle,"" said the first neighbor. +""So? What's wrong with that? I wish I could have taken advantage of a tax credit, when I bought my Hummer."" +""Well, he hasn't filed his taxes in years,"" said the first neighbor. +""Oh. That sounds like Tommy,"" said the second neighbor. +""He's being audited."" +21\. Thermostat is another inexpensive way to save not only energy but also money. +Change your thermostat to a digital one instead of an analog one. You'd be surprised how inaccurate and inefficient that 1960's style thermostat was wasting your precious fuel. +""Tommy, shouldn't you turn the power off first, before you install that thermostat?"" +""Nah, Gloria, this is easy. It's only three wires that when...Yeow!"" +""911, what's your emergency?"" +""My husband has been electrocuted. He's not breathing. I think he's dead. I would have driven him to the hospital, but I don't do my errands until Thursday and today is Tuesday."" +""We'll send an ambulance, Ma'am."" +""Okay, no hurry. Take your time."" +Well, there you have it, my list of how anyone and everyone can go green, while not only saving some money in the process but also helping to save the environment. +Happy Earth Day everyone." +380,How to Goal Set for the New Year,Tara Cox,How To,2012-12-29,2012-12-29,2022-01-04 08:31:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-goal-set-for-the-new-year,An unconventional option for people with conflicting roles.,"['Goal Setting', 'Goals', 'Objectives', 'Resolutions']",4.89,"It's that time of year again. Time to look back on another year. Evaluate your life and the progress you made this year. Time too to set those elusive goals, New Year's Resolutions, whatever you call them. For me, it is something that I have been doing for most of my adult life. In the past decade or so, it has become almost an obsession. I have read dozens, if not hundreds, of books on the subject. +But as with most people (probably most of you, if you are reading this article, when I look back each year I have managed to achieve less than half of my goals. It is like the old adage that resolutions are usually broken before the end of January. So you might ask, isn't it all just a big waste of time? Why keep doing something if you know it never works? +It does work though. It works because it forces us to look at our lives, those things that we value, those things that we want to achieve and it makes us prioritize them. There is n old saying that applies well, 'Shoot for the stars and you might just reach the moon.' That definitely applies to my goals last year as a writer. +As I began my career as an indie-writer, I had lofty goals. Lofty equals unrealistic. I was going to write and publish a novella each month and three full-length novels. Now it is not that I cannot write that quantity. On an average day, I write about three thousand words. And on my most prolific, I have written over eleven thousand. +The problem with my goal setting was that there is more to my live than simply writing. Other demands upon my time. And that is where most of us go wrong in setting our goals. We fail to see the picture. We focus upon just one thing and neglect all of the other trees around it. I am an indie-writer with three novellas to her credit. +But I am also a full-time mom to a special needs child and that means there are way too many days were I am able to write absolutely nothing. To put things in perspective though, if you look at my goals for that role as mother, I achieved every single one to one degree or another. Even if I did not completely achieve something, I am well on the road to doing so. +That is the first rule of goal setting: Realize that you have many roles and all of them are in conflict for your precious time. So you have to make choices, sometimes hard ones. As you set goals for the new year, decide which areas of your life, what roles, are most important to you. +This second rule, learned from too many years of hard experience, goes against everything I have ever read about goal setting. I have always been told to make things specific, dollar amounts, deadlines, that sort of things. And if you are one of those lucky people, who are either completely single-minded or do not have many things in your life to divide your attention, then that might be the best option for you. But if like me, your life is full of those conflicting demands, then perhaps setting broad objectives for this new year in each of those areas will prove more fruitful. So second rule is to set broad goals/objectives in each area or role. +But that will not work either if you only set goals once a year. If you write down those objectives and then forget about them, allowing the tempests of life to toss and turn you as she will, then you will come no closer to achieving those objectives than you did the strict goals you have written in the past. For this new method to work, you need to re-visit your objectives on a monthly, weekly and even daily basis. This is something that I learned long ago form one of the best authors on the subject, Stephen Covey. It is though more important in terms of making fuzzy objectives into reality. +For instance, for years I have had the goal of finishing Literotica's Survivor contest with one story in each category. Another lofty ambition. This year as I began the process of goal setting for the new year, I realized that as an indie-writer Survivor no longer fit my needs. This would be my final year competing. But what then of that unfulfilled goal? I have trouble just letting some things go, so with less than a month to go in the contest, I decided that if this was going to be my last time competing I was going out with a bang. I was going to fulfill that goal...for me. And assuming that none of my stories are rejected or re-categorized, I did it too. +But I was able to do accomplish it in part because it was a short term goal. I knew that I needed to write twenty-four stories in less than a month. For me, it is easier to deal with life on those short term basis...month by month, week by week and day by day. So rule three is: set monthly goals, then bite and chew those on a weekly and daily basis. +In order to do that though, we need to be reminded of those overall objectives. There are several ways of accomplishing that and how you do it may depend upon your lifestyle. For me the most effective method is a goal wall. This week I will type out my goals and print them in pretty colors on fancy paper. I will mount them and hang them on the walls of my bedroom so that each morning as I wake, I am reminded of the things I want to accomplish. Of course, there are other options: dozens of applications for your computer and smart phones, making books of them, collages or if you are computer savvy enough perhaps even screen savers. Hmm, maybe try as many of these options as you can. The more we are reminded of our goals the less likely we are to forget them. +So what is next for Tara Neale you ask? For me, the indie-writer anyway: My goal is to develop a reasonable backlist and make a decent living as a writer. Pretty fuzzy right? Well, I already have three novellas published so that means I likely need another nine items to qualify as a decent backlist. But whether those nine are novels, novellas or collection of short stories, I can decide based upon the other demands on my time. +Biting off the month of January alone, my goal is to edit and publish my first full length novel, The Arrangement. That would be one down and eight more to go in eleven months. That way I am able to adjust to the demands of my other role as mother and respond better to my readers. So go ahead, email me, bug me, tell me what you want those other eight stories to be this year." +381,How to Grow Old Gracefully...NOT,Tara Cox,How To,2011-10-06,2011-10-06,2022-01-04 08:31:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-grow-old-gracefully-not,Especially for those hitting the big four-zero.,"['Ageing', 'Aging']",4.57,"When you were fifteen, did you spend much time thinking about what life would be like at thirty? In your twenties, did you pine away hours thinking about life at forty and your first grey hair? Even in our thirties, age seemed such an arbitrary thing; there was plenty of time left. But hit your forties and those first aches and pains of aging come at you with full gusto. Life no longer seems infinite. +So how do people like Madonna, Cher and Tina Turner remain active and beautiful well past their 'middle age?' I know the cynics among us will point to plastic surgery and drugs, but I believe that the answer lies far deeper...within our very souls. This is my plan to make the next forty-five years even better than the first. +1) Be true to yourself. The most amazing thing about this age is that by now most of us actually know who we are, what we believe in and what we want from life. Something that we lacked in our teens, twenties and perhaps even thirties. That alone is almost worth the pain of plantar fasciitis when we first step out of bed each morning. But I think that this presents a new challenge for the latter half of our lives...being true to that person. Just because we have reached this monumental milestone of the big four-zero does not mean that we are now immune to peer pressure, except as adults we call it...fitting in. It is the drive to have more stuff than our friends; the latest techno gadget, the hippest new fashion, the biggest television or the fastest car. This need to 'fit-in' though can be at war with deeper callings within us to be true to ourselves. +2) Remain active. Yes, I know...deeply and personally...that those aches and pains of sore muscles after a good work-out seem worse and take longer to fade, but studies show that those who remain physically active throughout their lives live longer and happier. Even things as simple as walking to the store instead of climbing into your car can make a difference to your health. Or perhaps invest in a bicycle if the store is too far to walk. +3) Keep your mind active. As children and teens we were forced to study and learn. In our twenties, we went to college to prepare for jobs and this thing we call life. But now we have the unique opportunity to learn simply because we want to. Because we enjoy something. For me, it is writing. And we are lucky too, with the advent of the Information Age, there are thousands of things on offer at the touch of our fingertips. Want to brush up on your French that you took in school? Want to learn to cook like a chef? How about re-building the engine of that 1965 Ford Mustang you always wanted? All of this and more can be learned in the comfort of your own home. +4) Invest your time. Don't spend it. Like money, time is a valuable commodity. Today's millionaires know if you spend your money on the latest fashions, they will be out of style by next season. But if you invest your money then it will grow. So too with our time. If we spend it sitting on the couch watching television, we will get fat and lazy. But if we spend it doing the things most important to us, each moment takes on deeper meaning and purpose. Whether it is time spent with family and friends, volunteering with our church or community or enjoying Mother Nature, time well invested has huge returns. +5) Don't forget to really live. So often our lives run on auto-pilot. We wake up and go to work. We give our best to the job then come home tired and grumpy. We overlook the most important things and people in our lives. Even vacations are about where we went and what we did, not spending time relaxing with those we care about. Part of this, of course, is realizing that we are still sexual beings. Perhaps that is where Cher and Tina get their energy even more than their surgeons, the knowledge that they still have that 'mojo.' Maybe just maybe like fine wine...it only gets better with age? +So if you find yourself sitting one day and wondering 'where has all those years gone,' take a moment to consider this...perhaps the reason why the past four decades seemed to go so fast is that we rushed right through them. Why not take the time to really enjoy and appreciate each moment of the next four decades? And if you need some hair dye to cover the grey, a gym membership to fight the effects of gravity or even a magic scalpel, it's your life.

Of course we do! +Well, some of us anyway. +And ladies, do give it a try if you have never done this, you'll be pleasantly and orgasmically surprised. +The reasons pussy slapping is so popular are many and varied. +Sometimes it's because we have pussies that need to be deliciously mauled before we orgasm. +Sometimes it's a mind thing and pleasure and just a touch (or a bit more) of pain combine to want us to give our naughty pussies a thorough slapping. +Some women love to be punished. And yet others simply crave the two extremes of hands on love. The slap followed by the caress. Especially that one. Just like a good master knows how to spank a slave, the whip followed by the hand caressing that stinging bottom is a pleasure known to turn both sexes of slaves into greedy jelly. The more they get, the more they want. +The slap (on the pussy) wakes up every single nerve ending in the erectile tissue that the clitoris is made of, and causes them to sting a little, the caress over those wide awake nerve endings causes the whole vulva, not just the clitoris to shiver and shake with erotic excitement. +Repeated slapping with repeated caressing stimulates the entire area beyond the point of control and leaves our pussies gushing juice as we orgasm. Think spurting, not just gushing. +As foreplay goes in the modern world, the clit and the pussy are sometimes only given the slightest stimulation (or regrettably overlooked completely) to make way for sex. +The same goes for the cock (the stimulation of which will be discussed in a future how to) . There are those that think that if the cock is erect, the man attached to it is ready to go. Yes, he is but some foreplay with the cock would go a long way to a better climax. +The same goes for the woman's clit. Yes, her nipples are hard, her legs are open, her pussy is damp. She's good to go at that point, but spending just five minutes on exceptional foreplay will make her very willing to go three more rounds. +Here's how to slap the bitch out of that pussy and get your woman screaming and clawing for more... +1\. Oil her up. Use a water based lubricant if you're going to be using additional toys. If not - go old school - and pull out that bottle of baby oil. Don't be stingy either, hands slipping and sliding around the clit and the vulva and the sharp sound of palm on pussy all add to that intense orgasm. +2\. Make sure you cover the whole pussy, from the top of the crack down to her asshole. If you want to do some ass whipping as well, make sure you cover her buttocks as well. The oil increases the sound of the slap, or the instrument you both like. However if your partner prefers that hot stinging sensation on her ass, do not lubricate it. +And if she doesn't like being spanked at all, avoid the bottom or she will abandon the whole sex session. However, the good news is that many women who don't like to be spanked on the bottom, will gladly and enthusiastically take a spanking on the pussy. Different nerve endings sending a different message to her brain. +3\. Let the fun begin. Gently rub the oil or lube all over her pussy. Caress her clit, make sure it knows it's gonna see some action by flicking it right on the tip. Give her a taste of what's cumming. +4\. Now rub her firmly, all the way from top to bottom. Stimulate all the nerve endings. At this point she knows what's coming, so this is a tease. +5\. Start slapping. Work your way up the slap scale by beginning at one which is a gentle pat. Once you're patting that pussy she should start to move her hips and lift them to your hand. This is the signal to up the ante. +6\. Watch her body as you slap harder, keep up the rhythm. Not too fast but not slow either. About a slap a second is a good pace. The more she thrusts her hips and arches her back, the faster and harder she wants you to slap. +7\. You'll know you hit the sweet spot when she freezes back arched and hips thrust forward. She's at the edge now and you can go for it. Bring your pace and power to ten on the slap scale and don't stop until she suddenly drops back with her legs closed. The intensity of the orgasm(s) will ensure that this will be her reaction because the whole genital area is super sensitive after orgasm. +8\. If you are charming and you want a taste, now is the time to convince her that a soft caress with your tongue is what she really needs. Enjoy a good pussy eating while she recovers. +9\. When you've eaten your fill, she should be back to moaning and twitching for more. Give her some more. Give her the whole thing. +10\. End off by inserting your cock and listening to her scream as you pound those super sensitive nerve endings. Try to give her a good pounding inside. This means you may have to recite the alphabet backwards but remember, she has faith in you to pound her like only you can. +11\. Accept her gifts to you graciously, whether she brings you a beer, goes for pizza or rims your asshole. All gifts stemming from a great pussy slapping should be accepted with gratitude. +12\. Do it right and this could be the first step to phenomenal sex. And it only takes five to seven minutes. And you can then be in a better bargaining position for five to seven minutes of cock foreplay. Just don't ruin it by cumming." +383,How To Handle Infidelity,lonelylisa,How To,2003-11-15,2003-11-15,2022-01-04 08:31:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-handle-infidelity,Dealing with & understanding infidelity.,"['Brain Cells', 'Close Eyes', 'Diane Lane', 'Infidelity', 'Love', 'Man', 'Men', 'Night Stand', 'Time Still', 'Woman Husband']",4.55,"_This is for my friend, and also for me. I love you D._ +Infidelity. Just the word can bring havoc and panic to the heart of most committed people, married or not. It happens all the time, we hear about it constantly. That coworker at the office, the late-night call from a friend. But...it never happens to US. Never in OUR relationship. Oh yes it does. You'd better fasten your seat belts boys and girls...this is one hell of a bumpy ride. +First, let me give you my history on this topic, so you know up front that I've been there. +I've been on both sides of this emotional roller coaster. My first brush with infidelity came at the tender age of 20 years old. So young, so inexperienced with life, sex, orgasms, and men. He was 23 years old, and to me at that age -- that meant he was a MAN, and I was impressed. His marriage was crumbing, he told me so. I was the woman of his dreams, the love he was looking for. +And the sex, have I not mentioned the sex yet? Ladies...this man rocked my world. Before him, I had never experienced an orgasm that wasn't self- inflicted, never had a man eat my pussy, never had anal sex. My thighs quivered so much from this man that I thought I might never walk again. +So he had a wife, so what! She wasn't my concern. It's amazing how good sex can throw all clear thinking right out the damn window. I played the role of the ""other woman"" for almost three years. Until...he went back to his wife for good. He's been married and divorced twice now. The second marriage ended when she cheated on him. What's that old saying? You reap what you sow. +I got married myself two years later. I chose a shy, sweet, innocent man. He was a virgin for God's sake. He adored me, he would never cheat on me. Yeah, keep telling yourself that. Looking back, I can honestly say I didn't try as hard as I could have to make sure he was happy. I was so confidant of myself, that I missed the signs right in front of me. +4 years into our marriage he was cheating on me. It took me months to figure it out. I think the phone call from her one afternoon was my first clue. That same great sex I had been having with some faceless woman's husband, was NOW being had by another faceless woman with MY husband! Here we go again. You reap what you sow. +In my somewhat humble, yet slightly educated opinion on this topic, I feel there are two basic types of infidelity. While there can be many different variations of this, they do seem to be classed into two distinct groups. + **Type #1** +The one night stand. That sort of fly-by sex. You don't think much about it ahead of time, you don't necessarily plan it, it just happens. A moment presents itself, you're in the wrong place at the wrong time (or the right place at the right time), and that heated lusty feeling in your groin sucks up all your brain cells and you fuck like bunnies. +It can be incredibly intense and erotic. Maybe your sweet, demure wife doesn't give head, and this woman whose name you might not even know is sucking your cock like she works for Hoover. Maybe your football-crazed husband tells you ""later, honey, the game is on"", and this man you just met is practically ripping your panties from your body because he NEEDS your pussy. Did I mention this could be intense? +But, it's a lapse -- a one time fling -- nothing more. You pull your cock from her ass, find the shreds of your clothes scattered all over the floor, and crawl away in shame. (Once you cum, you can't get out of there fast enough anyway) Or, ladies, you salvage what's left of those ripped and damp panties, quickly stuff them into your purse, and run home to get the kids lunches made for school the next day. It's temporary insanity, as I tried explain to a friend recently. You won't get the death sentence for it, but that gold-plated free pass to heaven has just built up some tarnish. Does anyone need a ride to confession? +During the act you may or may not be feeling any guilt. You may get so caught up in the passion of the moment, that real life has escaped your brain. Your brain cells are rather pre-occupied at the moment. Who could blame you? On some levels this may even seem like fantasy, with the reality not hitting until your clothes are back on, and you've scampered off into the night. +You might not feel guilt afterwards either, though from my own experience, and the stories I hear from my circle of friends, most people do. The guilt can eat away at you, making you question your values, and even your relationship. You vow that this will never happen again. You shower your significant other with love, kisses, attention, and gratitude. All of this, of course, is to try to reduce your guilt. +Sometimes it doesn't happen again. That was it, you sowed your wild oats. You swear on all that is holy that you will never stray again. Sometimes you don't. Then again...sometimes you do. +As horrible as this may sound to those people I saw waiting outside the confession booth with me last Saturday (Please, don't tell my mother I was there AGAIN), even if you slip again...with another person, and it happens only one time, it's STILL a one night stand. Does it make you any less of a cheater? Hell no. It just makes you a Type #1 cheater. +I've known people who felt that because they never slept with any of their ""one night stands"" more then once, that it didn't mean anything. It wasn't REALLY cheating...they were all just ""mistakes."" Using that logic, we can rob the bank of our choice, and as long as we don't rob each bank more than once, we aren't REALLY stealing. Stick to that story when you meet Bubba, your new prison-mate, when he's handing you the soap on a rope and calling you ""his bitch."" +This brings me to the next and in my opinion, the most damaging, type. Remember, I've been here, and I've played every part in this nasty little game. I've been the victim of both one-night stands and more meaningful infidelity, but I have also been the one doing the cheating. Am I proud of what I've done? Hell NO! But...if asked if I would change the experiences I've been through, I would really have to think long and hard. + **Type #2** +The ""more than once encounter,"" maybe not so casual infidelity. Oh sure, maybe it started out as a case of temporary insanity, but you go back for round #2, and maybe more. Type #2 infidelity is almost always born from Type #1. You think it won't happen again, but God, it felt so amazing, you were reborn sexually, and you just can't help yourself. It's like a drug addict needing another fix. You try to tell yourself this is the last time you're going to see her, the last time you let him fuck you, but it's like a runaway train, you can't stop it from happening. +As if Type #1 wasn't messy enough, filling you with enough guilt, Type #2 is worse by tenfold. This is damn hard for some people to admit to, but once you begin seeing someone on even a semi-regular basis, a relationship is formed. Semi-regular can mean once a week, or once a year. Does a relationship always mean love? God no, but a relationship has formed none the less. +That first time can sometimes be written off using the ""temporary insanity"" plea. But...when there is a second time, and maybe more, you're no longer insane, my friends. You have made a conscious decision to cheat. You may not even realize the choice has been made, but trust me, it has been. From now on, though, where this goes, and what it means, gets very tricky. +First of all, men and women look at infidelity in completely different ways. Let me give you an example: When my husband began his first affair, the first thing I asked him was ""do you love her?"" Oh, believe me, I asked hundreds of other questions, and still do. But at that moment, when he finally told me about ""her,"" the first and most important thing that came from my lips was ""do you love her?"" +Not ""have you slept with her? Is she better then me?"" All of that came later, after a very large bottle of wine. Women are generally much more emotional creatures then men are. We see the world through our hearts. If, as a woman, you have never experienced this, close your eyes, and imagine...just for a moment...your husband embracing another woman, and telling her ""I love you."" Do you feel that in your stomach? Do you want to throw up? Yeah, I know, it's gut wrenching. +All right ladies, put the baseball bat back in you son's room and step away from the car keys. I didn't say he was cheating, I just wanted you to know how it feels. Go back to folding his underwear, make him a nice dinner, he's been a good boy. +Now, men -- they react differently. For men -- for the most part (not trying to classify anyone) -- the biggest fear is of another man touching their wife. I think it goes back to the caveman days. Men are wired differently then women are. Men are hunters by nature. Going out into the world and bringing home their prey. They will proudly, with swelled chests, show their catch to other men, but don't try to take that catch home with you, or out come the clubs, and a battle will ensue. +Now it's the men's turn. Close your eyes boys (don't worry, you wont miss any porn pop-ups) and without me even making a suggestion, what is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think about your wife or lover being involved with another man? Hmm...let me take a stab in the dark here. I would bet money it didn't have anything to do with her saying she loved him. Does it have anything remotely to do with another mans body on hers, his cock inside of her, making her cum, gasping and moaning in pleasure? +Okay, okay, drop the club, and unclench your jaw. Go buy her some flowers, tell her you love her. She was home doing laundry all day, I swear. That was just the gardener leaving all sweaty. +Does everyone remember ""Fatal Attraction"" with Michael Douglas and Glenn Close? Remember all the talk around the water cooler from men? Remember how freaked out men were about it? Do you know why? The woman became the hunter, Glenn Close went after her prey like a mad woman. Men were terrified. I would bet that many, many men who were in the midst of a hot, steamy love affair quickly ended them out of sheer terror. My husband has seen that movie a dozen times, and he STILL calls her insane. +But...ask those same men to watch ""Unfaithful"" with Richard Gere and Diane Lane, and they will react entirely differently. They will call Diane Lane every name in the book for the most part, and will continue to go on saying the man she had the affair with deserved to die. That movie shocked people, and opened their eyes to their own personal views about infidelity. +It's a double standard, isn't it? It's almost as if men are allowed to cheat, and women are expected to forgive. But God forbid if a woman cheats. There is no excuse in the world to justify that, at least not to her husband, or a good portion of men. Maybe that will change someday, but for now, society still deems it much worse for a woman to be unfaithful. +In one regard, it doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman. If you have cheated, or if your spouse has cheated on you, the basis to dealing with it is learning to understand why it happened. Sure, there truly are some people out there who just can't seem to keep their pants on, and fuck everything they can catch. But that's not what I'm talking about here. If you're unfortunate enough to be with someone like that, give Glenn Close a call, she can help you remedy that. +This is deeper, and its tougher to handle. For you, or your spouse, or your lover to go outside of the relationship to seek sexual fulfillment, something has to be missing at home. That's a tough pill to swallow, isn't it? When you have been betrayed, it's very easy to blame the entire incident on your partner. If we take some of the responsibility for their actions, the hurt is even deeper. Let me give an example I told to a friend of mine recently. +I adore Ralph Lauren's Polo on men. Any man. The checkout boy at the market; the postman; but mostly, my husband. Whenever I smell it, it arouses me on some level. For many, many years whenever my husband would wear it, I was all over him. I wanted him then, right then. It makes me feel submissive, and very erotic. But...after 14 years together, I don't react the same all the time. Oh, sometimes I still want him to take me right then and there, and will even suggest that to him. Sometimes, he will even turn the game off and oblige me. But...then...there are those other times. I will smell it, and I go into that bitchy wife mode. +I've caught myself doing it. Instead of letting the scent fill me with lust and desire, I will gripe that he didn't put the bottle back in the medicine cabinet. I'll bitch that he wears it too much, and its too damn pricey to wear to work... Or, I will accuse him of wearing it for some other woman. I assume the woman at his office doesn't bitch when she smells it on him. I wonder whom he is more likely to respond favorably to? +Does that mean it's okay for him to start sleeping with her? Absolutely NOT!!!! But...if I'm completely honest with myself, perhaps I can see why some other woman would be more appealing to him. The same goes for men. If you are so absorbed in your football game, your car, whatever it is that makes you happy, that you are pushing your wife aside and not seeing to her needs, then how can you be totally surprised if she fills those needs outside of your bedroom? +Most of are guilty of being too comfortable in our relationships. It feels safe, secure, and we stop trying very hard, or stop trying at all. The hubby rolls over and slips his hand under your nightie, and you grumble about being tired, having to get the kids up early. He pulls his hand away, and you go to sleep. It's no big deal, right? You can do it the next night, he isn't going anywhere. But...after years of being told ""not tonight honey"", trust me, he's going to stop trying. Not because his need is any less, but simply because he's sick and tired of being rejected, and he just gives up. +Does that mean it makes it right for him to begin a torrid affair with the woman at the grocery store who flirts with him? No, it doesn't. But, it sure does explain why he responded to her flirting in the first place. Once you can admit that to yourself, and see that you may have an active role in why the infidelity took place, you may be on the way to forgiving it, moving on from it, and making sure it never enters your life again. +An affair can be highly exciting for the person involved in it. It's completely free of any responsibilities. That person that you meet once or twice a week to have wild, hot sex with doesn't give a damn when the mortgage is due. They don't care who's taking the kids to soccer practice, or if you picked up the dry cleaning. All they care about at that moment is the feeling of fucking you. Fucking you in a way that your spouse never does anymore. Remember when you and your spouse were like that? You couldn't keep your hands off each other? God, the good 'ol days. They don't have to be gone, you just have to work harder to get them back. +Guys...get her flowers on the way home...just because. Tell her she's beautiful even if she's wearing sweats and a T-shirt. She just may reward you with exactly what you were looking outside of your relationship to find. +Ladies...how about taking off the sweats today, and putting on those jeans. The pair he loves on you whenever you wear them. Maybe tonight you could roll over to his side of the bed, and sleep in late this weekend to make up for it. +Trust me...the excitement and the thrill that you or your spouse feels with someone new would quickly vanish under the pressure of day to day life. Try talking about the mortgage with your new fling, see how that goes. +Will it always work out the way we want it to? Sadly...no. But if you take an active role in trying to make it better, you won't be filled with the guilt of knowing you could have tried harder. Thanks for reading, It's time for me to dig out those jeans the hubby loves, and make him forget about the little checkout girl for tonight." +384,How To Have a Grrreat 69,FriskyVirgin,How To,2007-05-19,2007-05-19,2022-01-04 08:31:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-a-grrreat-69,Follow these steps to have the best 69'er of your life.,"['69', 'Mutual Oral', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To', 'Sixty-Nine']",4.39,"**How to Enjoy 69: Getting the Most out of Mutual Oral Sex** +What is a 69? +This is considered one of the best oral intercourse positions as it allows both partners to stimulate each other at the same time. Either partner can be on top, but performing fellatio is significantly more difficult when in the bottom position... just remember not to forget to stop and enjoy being on your sides between switching! +The Steps To Perform The Best 69. +If at first you don't succeed, well just keep practicing. Practice makes perfect and also enjoyable if you are new to it. +1\. Line Up: The ""69"" sex position gets its name from the shape of the numbers. The nine looks like an upside-down six and the two numbers fit snugly together like puzzle pieces. So in order to perform and to receive mutual oral sex, two bodies in the sixty-nine position need to be lying head to toe. Successful mutual oral sex comes from finding the most comfortable way possible for you and your partner to be, well, end-to-end. A basic position involves one partner lying down on top of the other partner so that you're facing each other's genitals. The partner on top can lean on his/her elbows for easier movement of the head, neck and upper body. Lying on your sides facing each other's bodies is another position which can allow for more freedom of movement (you can rest your heads on each other's thighs — instant pillows!). +2\. Around the House: Utilize furniture at home to make 69 easier. Place pillows or cushions under your heads or hips and you'll have easier access to each other's sweet spots. Ramps and Wedges, angled foam cushions made to be used for sex, can also help your positioning. +3\. All in the Timing: One criticism of 69-ing is that splitting one's focus between giving and receiving oral sex at once can be distracting. While the concept of mutual oral sex is to give and get, it doesn't necessarily have to happen totally simultaneously. You and your partner can take turns giving and getting stimulation for certain periods of time, so you each get a chance to concentrate solely on creating or receiving sensation. +4\. Tune in to your partner. Check in with your partner to ensure that both of you are getting what you want from the sixty-nine position. Listen to your partner for signs she or he is feeling good — moans, heavy breathing. Take a moment to ask quick yes-or-no questions — nothing complicated. A single-word question will do: ""Harder?"", ""More?"", ""Faster?"", etc. Encourage your partner to do the same for you, or just speak up to get what you want. +5\. Accessorize! You can also mix things up by using your hands and toys along with your mouth; try small wireless vibrators as they both fit right on a finger to easily use on clits, vulvas, penises and testicles alike. You can also use dildos, butt plugs. +6\. Enjoy the ride. Remember to take your time with 69 - it's not a race to see who can come first! (And if you do come first, make sure your partner has your full attention afterward.) Take your time and enjoy making your partner feel great and vice-versa. Make the act more of a tease and even a challenge with a blindfold or handcuffs wrist restraints. For handjobs or vaginal penetration during 69, try silicone lube like Eros bodyglide, which is super- concentrated to last and last. +ADVANTAGES OF HER ON TOP +• She has control because she's on top. +• She can move her vagina deep into your mouth as she pleases. +• You can use your fingers to explore within while you suck on her vagina like a human vacuum. +DISADVANTAGES OF HER ON TOP +• Depending on how much she weighs, she can possibly cut off the circulation in your body, hence turning your solid member into a flailing leaf. +• You have less control over the situation (use a pillow to keep your head propped up). +• She may tire quickly from having to lean on her elbows or hands. +• She might end up having rug burns on her knees from the friction (something to remember you by). +MANS TIME TO SHINE +• Now if you're the one on top, things change somewhat. First off, you'll be leaning into her sweet treat and your face will be in immediate contact with her clitoris (yum yum). You can take things at a slower pace and lick her from the clitoris to the end of her vagina. +She, on the other hand, can put your member deep down her throat. And since her hands are free, she will have more liberty to maneuver and venture into areas like the Male G-Spot. +ADVANTAGES +• You have a lot of control in this given position. +• She can venture around your body parts in ways like never before. +• You can ram your member down her throat at will +DISADVANTAGES +• You could suffocate her easily if your pleasure takes over your realistic train of thought. +• You might strain your neck if you keep struggling to lick her deep within. +• Once she puts your penis in her mouth, she could have a hard time getting it out considering you'll probably have a tendency to want to keep it in there. +SIDE BY SIDE +This is probably the best 69 position to ever come about. Men and women alike rant and rave about what a wonderful and viable position it is. +In this position, you and your woman lay in opposite directions but side by side. Thus, your face, as usual, will be in direct contact with her vagina, and her face will be facing The Ladies' Fan (or penis if you like). +Because no one is putting their weight on the other, this position remains comfortable and you can even look at one another while doing your thing. You're not dominating the situation and neither is she -- it's perfectly equal. +ADVANTAGES +• You don't have to worry about hurting her with your weight. +• You can use your hand to rub the outline of her body or rub her breasts, nipples, tummy, and all that good stuff. +• She can rub her hand down your back and massage your thighs in the midst of her private performance. +• You can watch her inhale you +DISADVANTAGES +• There may be a lot of fluid dripping down the side of your face (but for most, that's not such a disadvantage after all). +And so there you have it. The world's most popular number finally realized and defined in detail. Remember, when you orgasm, don't forget about her; instead hold her tight or suck her juices until she yells out in ecstasy." +385,How To Have A Happy Summer Vacation,andtheend,How To,2010-09-06,2010-09-06,2022-01-04 08:31:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-a-happy-summer-vacation,Explaining how to have a happy summer vacation.,"['Academia', 'College', 'Extramarital Affair', 'Healthcare', 'Swinging Lifestyle', 'Teachers', 'Uncle Sam', 'University', ""Workingmen'S Compensation"", 'World Cruise']",3.64,"After careful thought and considerable research, I've discovered the secret to having a happy summer vacation. It wasn't easy for me to come up with this, but I did it for you. Only, this How To story is not for everyone. This How To story may not be for you who is reading this story, but it could be for the guy or gal standing over your shoulder reading this story. Actually, I wrote it especially for you, that is, if you fit the parameters of who I had in mind when I wrote the story. First things first, let us eliminate those people who don't need my help in having a happy summer vacation. +It's the summertime and this How To Have A Happy Summer Vacation is not for those of you who aren't lazy, public school teachers, I wish you all a happy summer. Sorry, I'm just jealous. In case you teachers have your heads too far up your asses to realize that the rest of us don't get the summers off, we don't. In the real world, depending if we still have a job and aren't unemployed, the rest of the working middleclass stiffs get one or two lousy vacation weeks off a year. That's it. +No, of course, I'm not writing about you, your son, and/or your daughter. You, your son, and/or your daughter are great teachers. We wouldn't have a school system without you. When you retire, they should name a school after you. I'm writing about those teachers who have been in the school system way too long and who need to retire and give someone else a chance to reach and to teach students. +Seriously, unless you're a doctor, a lawyer, a scientist, a newscaster, a talk show host, or some other profession where the longer you remain in your career and on the job, the more expertise you gain. Out of touch teachers who have been teaching at the same school and at the same grade level for forty years need to go to Miami or Arizona or wherever the Hell retired teachers go. Sorry. So much like having a ruler shoved up their asses, they are the stiff lipped teachers who walk around with the union rule book in their back pocket, along with a photo of me, or in their pocketbook, along with their dildo, ready to strike at their first grievance. +""Gees, Patti, a cruise around the world? How'd you manage that, when I only had enough vacation time to have a lousy barbeque in my backyard, before returning to work, until this time next year?"" +""I'm a teacher, silly. We get paid summers off. Don't you?"" +This How To Have A Happy Summer Vacation is not for those of you who are bad attitude city, state, and federal workers and who only work 20 hours for a 40 hour paycheck. We see you sitting in your trucks reading the newspaper, drinking coffee, and sleeping. We see four guys pile out of a truck to put up one fallen sign pole, one to supervise, one to hold the pole, one to hold the ladder, one to tighten the screws, and take three hours to do it. Are you kidding me? Pay me half of what those four earned and I'll put up the sign pole myself and save the government money. +We know they're there hiding in the office, while their telephone rings off the hook. When city, state, and federal budgets are the tightest they've ever been, it's pretty shitty of them to play the system in the way they do, by making their day one long, bathroom break. While they get paid for their one plus hour, liquid lunches, the rest of us aren't even paid for our lousy chew and gulp, half hour lunches. In the way my Mom used to collect Green Stamps, they've been accumulating not only weeks of summer vacation time but also months worth of personal and sick days. They have enough time accumulated that they could feign an illness and not work for nearly two years, after not having worked a full day during their entire career, anyway. For the rest of us, if we don't use our allotted time in the year given, we lose it. +No, of course, I'm not writing about you, your son, and/or your daughter. You three are the best city, state, or federal workers ever. They should name a street, a bridge, or a building after you. I'm writing about those city, state, and federal workers who have never worked a full day in all the years they've been on the job. They are the ones who gripe and complain and who file workingmen's compensation claims at the first hint of a backache, when they really hurt their back bowling, balling, or blowing. +""Kathy! What happened? Are you okay?"" +""No, I pulled my back bending over like that to suck your cock. I'm going to have to make up a workingmen's or in my case a workingwomen's compensation claim at work tomorrow. I'll tell them that I hurt my back lifting a box at work."" +In the real world, working as hard as we can, the rest of us are supervised, scrutinized, and victimized. +""Okay, lunch is over. Back to work! You went a minute over your allotted 30 minutes and I'll be docking five minutes from your pay."" +Just as not all public school teachers are lazy, not all city, state, and federal workers have bad attitudes, kind of, not really, pretty much, and play the system to work less hours than they're paid. Just as they know who they are, we know who they are. Many teachers earn every dollar they're paid and even must take money out of their pocket to buy supplies and/or to treat their students to a party or an outing. +""Why aren't you eating lunch, Sally?"" +""My Mom didn't have any money to give me for lunch."" +""Come with me and I'll buy you lunch,"" said her teacher escorting her to the cafeteria. +Many city, state, and federal employees still do their jobs, despite watching the certain few, political appointees play the system, pad their paychecks with no show hours, and goof off on our time and the public's dollar. +""Absolutely, just give City Hall a call. We're here to help you. That's our job. Thank you for paying your taxes that gives me this job."" +Wow! Wouldn't you love it, if all public servants were like that? Only, how oxymoronic is it to call your local politician a public servant when he enters office comfortably rich and leaves office fabulously wealthy, while serving no one but himself or herself? +For those of you who work for colleges and universities in academia, who don't know what real work is, by never having had to work in the real world, the business world, you don't need me to tell you how to have a happy summer vacation. You already know how to do that. While enjoying your paid summer off, you're having happy times now, while traveling the globe with your special travel discounts that aren't available to the rest of us. +""Gees, Linda, you went to Egypt, Spain, France, and Italy all on your summer vacation? How'd you afford all that, when I only had money enough to buy this lousy, I love Cleveland, tee shirt of the city where I live?"" +""I work at a college silly. We get special travel discounts. Don't you?"" +When those who work in academia are not enjoying the rest of a happy year hanging around corridors and offices and flapping their gums, while flaunting their advanced degrees by acting oh, so intellectual, they're experiencing it now by having their paid summertime off. Instead of working, instead of doing the job that they're so overpaid to do, they pretend they're so overworked and complain they're so underpaid to anyone who will listen. Just so they can complain, too, the only ones who can bear to listen to them are their fellow co-workers. The rest of us, just want to throttle them and beat them with their employee benefit handbooks that lists that their children can attend the college or university where they work for free, while the rest of us must remortgage our homes, if we still have one, to pay for our children's education. +""Wait, let me understand this before I sign this loan agreement, after my four kids graduate college, I'll owe more than I'll earn in two lifetimes in student loans? I'll have to work until I'm 130-years-old just to pay for their college education."" +""Nah, don't worry about that. You'll die long before you pay all that you owe and we'll just take your house."" +For those military men and women who screw off and screw up in non-combat, support positions, while the real heroes go off to war and die for your right to do nothing, but collect fat paychecks and federal benefits from Uncle Sam, shame on you. By not doing your jobs, by not giving 100% to your country that your fellow patriots must give when in combat, you are indirectly responsible for the deaths of them. How do you feel when a piece of equipment fails, while the real heroes are in combat? Between the sweet no contract deal that Bush and Cheney gave Haliburton, with plenty of blame to go down the chain of command, where does your buck stop? Do you take responsibility for your job or do you just blame the other guy or gal? The problem starts and stops with you not doing your job. +Not all those in academia work the system and are overpaid. There are many men and women, who work long hours and give of themselves to insure a better education for all. Not all military men and women in non-combat, support positions are screw offs and screw ups. Some even take their lives in hand to make sure that the men and women, who risk their lives in combat, have the provisions and the best backup equipment they need, whenever they need it. +The rest of the middle class, we who support the whole, are routinely abused, mistreated, and threatened with unemployment, if we don't conform and pick up the slack because companies rather have higher bottom line profits than have happy, motivated, and loyal employees. Loyalty went out the window, along with retirement plans. The rest of us haven't had a raise in years and if we get a raise, it's not even enough to pay for our morning coffee. The benefits we once had are now replaced with inferior medical plans that require we pay more in co-pays than our parents paid for their entire medical plan. Overworked and underpaid, we must work more than one job at understaffed companies, just to afford housing, healthcare, food, and gas for our car. +Notwithstanding those of you who do their jobs, this How To story is not for those who have the entire summer off or who fake working for a paycheck. This How To story is not for those of you who are not feeling the belt tightening pinch of this economy and who have never had to go without a paycheck, a raise, and a promotion. This How To story is not for those of you who have never been denied credit, lost your home, your car, your life, and your identity by not having a job. For the rest of you, this How To story is for you. +This How To story is for those who work in a piecemeal factory and don't have clean restrooms. This How To story is for those who work in a sweatshop mill and don't have air conditioning. This How To story is for those who risk their safety at a construction site and are routinely injured on their job. This How To story is for those who regularly risk their lives working in a mine, on an oil rig, as a firefighter, and as a police officer. This How To story is for those nurses, who must work long shifts, and for all of those employees, day laborers, restaurant and fast food workers, and retail workers, who must work long hours to earn very little. For all those workers who are overworked, underpaid, and for those others who are unemployed and can't find a job, this 'How To' story is for you. +So, now that I've pissed off the teachers, the city, state, and federal workers, everyone who works in academia, and those military non-combat screw offs and screw ups, how do the rest of you hard working people have a happy summer vacation? It's simple and surprisingly, it may be something you never considered doing before, that is, until now. So, pull up a chair, make yourself comfortable, grab a cup of coffee or tea, a cold beer or a glass of wine, or a big glass of water, because what I'm about to tell you may change your life forever. +You're dying to know, how to have a happy summer, aren't you? Well, first of all, this information on how to have a happy summer only applies to married couples. Sorry to all you young, single people, who already know and who are already having a happy summer vacation. There's nothing that I can tell you that you don't already know. +For those hard working, overworked and underpaid, married couples who are longing and yearning to have just one worthwhile summer vacation that will get them through the rest of the year, until their next lousy one week or two week summer vacation, I wrote this with you in mind. This is your How To Have A Happy Summer Vacation story. First a truism. The longer you've been married, the more happily married you pretend to be, and the more miserable you truly are, the more important this information is to you and the happier that I can make you by telling you how to have a happy summer vacation. Only, you must believe what I have written. You must trust me because I do have your best interest at heart and in mind. +Close your eyes. Relax. Take a deep cleansing breath. Blow it out and do it again. Feel the stresses of your job leaving you. Okay, now open your mind, open your eyes, and continue reading. +How to have a happy summer vacation is simple. Ready? If you haven't had one already, have an extramarital affair. That's right and that's all you need to do. Please, there's no need to thank me. If you want to have a happy summer vacation, have an affair. Wait, don't stop reading because you can't have an affair or you think that having an extramarital affair will ruin your marriage. Trust me, you can have an extramarital affair without it ruining your marriage. I will tell you how to do that. +Now, wait, before you run off and screw the first man or women you see and make a mortal sin by having sex with a nun or a priest, let me explain. Before you get on your high horse and pooh-pooh my idea of breaking your marriage vows, bear with me. Those same vows that you broke already, when you allowed your wife's sister to stick her hand down your bathing suit and feel your cock in the deep end of the pool or when you flashed your neighbor's husband your tits, ass, and pussy by pretending that you didn't know the blinds were open with the light on, when you were undressing for bed. Besides the obvious, let me explain why having an extramarital sexual affair with a cutie or a hunk will make you have a happy summer vacation. +First of all, you have the affair in the summer, of course, when you're on vacation and when you have the time to have an affair. Secondly, you have the affair not only with the full knowledge and consent of your spouse but also of all parties concern and with someone who is as discreet as are you. This is still puritanical America and having sex outside your marriage, unless you're a drug crazed celebrity or powerful politician, is as forbidden as praying in school, killing unborn babies, pirating video tapes and music, and reading pornography, which is what you're doing now. Shame on you. +After you've taken the kids, the spoiled darling children, your treasured off springs, who don't deserve to be taken anywhere, to Disney World, to the beach, and/or to the amusement park, it's time for mommy and daddy to get some X-rated rest and recreation. The best way for adults to recover from working 50 weeks a year is by having plenty of hot sex, which only happens with a sordid affair. Especially after you've been married for a while, you will never get the kind of X-rated, head banging, heart pounding, body sweating, and orgasm screaming sex from your spouse, as you would from a stranger, that you'll surely need to recover from working your life away, unless you have an extramarital affair. Trust me, I know. Sorry, but I don't kiss and tell. +Now, there's nothing wrong with having an affair, so long as there are not only two consenting adults involved in having the affair but also two consenting couples in having the affair. Both husbands and wives from both marriages must agree that it's okay for all four parties involved to have the extramarital affair. I'm not talking about having a swinging lifestyle orgy, that is, unless you want one and all parties agree to have one. That's up to the four of you. I'm not talking about multiple affairs. I'm talking about one affair, a year. That's it. Trust me, one affair is enough to take the edge off and allow you to return to work with a big ass smile on your face and a vivid memory that plays endlessly through your mind like a song that haunts you. +Now, you don't necessarily need to have the affair with the wife of the husband that your wife is having her affair or with the husband of the wife that your husband is having his affair. For the affair to give you the full erotic benefits, it could and should be with the spouse of a different couple. So, now, we have four couples involved in your extramarital affair, instead of two couples involved in your little summertime vacation sexual escapade. Exponentially, do the math. With all parties agreeing to having an extramarital affair and, especially, if you decide to have more than one affair, this, conceivably could broaden to 8, 16 or more couples involved. Still, all parties must agree to having the discreet extramarital affair, otherwise it won't work and what you do now will return to bite you in the ass later. +""But you said you loved me?"" +See? Be careful about saying things in the heat of the moment that you don't really mean and that you'll surely regret. +""And this is your baby."" +Oops, I forgot about that precaution. Think safe sex when having your extramarital summer vacation affair. Always wear a condom. Just as click it or ticket works with seatbelts, cover your stump before you hump, don't be silly, protect your Willie, when in doubt, shroud your spout, can't go wrong, if you shield your dong, she won't get sick, if you wrap your dick, wrap your meat, before going in heat, dress your penis, before undressing Venus, don't make a mistake, cover your snake, sex is cleaner with a packaged wiener, if you can't shield your rocket, leave it in your pocket, no glove, no love, don't be a fool, cover your tool. Understand? +So, out of all the things that you could do to have a happy summer vacation, spending time with your family, traveling to faraway places, fixing your house, your car, or your boat, spending more time relaxing at home watching TV, while eating and drinking, or doing the things that you love doing but never have the time to do, why should you have an extramarital affair? Because the effects of an extramarital affair, so long as it's done correctly, out in the open, and with the consent of all those involved, is something that you will feel the effects of for the rest of the year. Not to mention, you will have fond, warm memories of your sexual affair for the rest of your life. +The hours you'll spend in heated pillow talk alone with your spouse later is worth having the affair. Hell, you may have had such a great extramarital experience that you may not need to have another one for several years. Then, again, it could all go so afoul that you finally get that divorce you always wanted from your spouse and marry the second wife or second husband you should have married in the first place. Either way, it's a win/win situation for all involved. +""Daddy, don't go."" +""I must. I don't love Mommy anymore."" +""Mommy, don't go."" +""Go? We're staying in the house, but Daddy is leaving."" +Ah, you're with me now that I see you smiling, while already thinking about who it is you want to have your affair. It's a great idea to have a happy summer vacation affair, but how do you find discreet, open, and likeminded couples willing to have an extramarital affair for the sake of having a happy summer?

I'm going to let you in all the secrets that have worked for me in the last 8 years. They may not be everyone's cup of tea, but there are still general lessons that anyone can take away from them. +Rule number one is that a good marriage starts before the first date. It starts with being completely open and honest and letting the other person know exactly who you are and what you are all about. No put on heirs, no pretenses—rule number one: What you see is what you get...period. +Rule number two: Honesty and openness are always the best policy. That is the only way you'll know if the first date is even worth either of your time and effort or not. Lay all your cards on the table from that first electric spark that says I want to know more about you and continue to do that for the rest of your relationship. +Rule number three: How can someone else love you if you do not love yourself? You have to know who you are and what you are all about. Accept and embrace it even if there are things about you that make you different than the norm. +I'll give you an example of these things... +Terri knew that she liked girls when she was about thirteen. But she was 15 by the time she acted on it. Then all through high school and all the way through her first failed marriage she hid the fact that she adored men and women equally. And cut herself off completely from that part of who she was. Trying to let it go dormant thinking it was a phase that would die out. She has always told me that she believed that there were a both a male and a female love of her life out there just waiting for her to find them. +And when she found Mr. Right she knew that she had to be honest from the beginning. She told him up front ""Look, I like girls too, and if that's going to be an issue, if you don't think that you can share, then we might as well end this first date we're planning before it ever starts."" +Luckily for her Mr. Right was an average red-blooded American male and he was actually very turned on by the whole idea and hoped that maybe he'd at least get to do some watching one of these days. +That started Terri and Jim off on the right foot. They've been on it ever since. When you are honest enough to share the weirdest or must out of the norm thing about yourself right up front...everything else is small potatoes after that. +Being true to who you are and then finding someone who truly loves you for who you are, not for who you've conned him or her and yourself into believing you are is the ultimate ticket to happiness. The safety and security of being open about all your feelings makes for a lot less arguments too. Sit down and tell your significant other when they've done something that upsets you. Discuss it like adults. Don't allow it to fester for days and weeks until one day the smallest thing makes you blow up at them. +So that is rule number five: Face and conquer all adversity head on and remember that you are equal partners and that you are a team. It is you two against the rest of the world! +That brings us to the open and sexually happy part of your marriage. And rule number six: Be honest always with your lover of all your desires. Fantasize about things you haven't done yet individually or together. It can be a great fire starter in a bedroom that is a little stale at the moment. +If you've always wanted to try supper something say with another girl or another guy...tell each other...don't just blurt it out at the table, but in those quiet times you have alone. Talking about fantasies during sex can be very revealing and very stimulating as well. Some people are more apt to open up and let a few of their greatest desires come out when they are feeling loved and secure or are in the throws of passion. +Terri and Jim have had numerous girlfriends. Some of those were only for Terri and Jim got to do no more than watch occasionally. Others were there to double Jim's pleasure as well. +Don't be afraid to share. But talk it all through and lay down plenty of ground rules. And remember...anyone involved can back out and say stop I don't want this at any point. But we'll have another whole chapter that is devoted to the sharing issues later... +Being able to let your lover in on even the most crazy and dirty little secrets that bounce around in your mind opens up all kinds of things sexually. Some of these things you think of you would never actually dream of carrying out in real life. But they make it something fun for your lover to use to get your fires stoked and keep them roaring. The right whisper about wishing one of your lover's fantasies ""was happening right at this very minute"" and ""can you picture it...how good it would be ...how hot you would look..."" etc. can turn a regular so-so session of love making into passionate and meaningful sex. +For some more tips and tricks be sure to log-on for Chapter two." +387,How to Have a Mind Blowing Orgasm,lustprincess,How To,2011-05-07,2011-05-07,2022-01-04 08:31:51,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-a-mind-blowing-orgasm,How to have a mind blowing orgasm during sex for ladies.,['Female Masturbation'],3.94,"I don't know about you, but I've had some pretty lack luster sex experiences ranging from virgins to guys that just want to knock one out. I mean, yeah, when the guy has a big cock, it feels good, but how he uses it is what matters. So, ladies, here's what to do before you engage in sex, or even foreplay with your man, and then what you should do once it's time to do the deed. +Preparation, preparation, preparation +Preparation is key. Sex is always better when you're in the mood for it way ahead of time. So, grab your vibrators, your shower heads, or your hands (or a combo of all three if you're feeling pretty risqué for the day) and start playing. +Take a bath. Light some candles to relax—vanilla, musk, and peppermint are three scents known to have turned women on. Lay back in the tub, spread your legs, and just let your mind go blank. Focus on the sensation of warm water between your legs. Start playing with your breasts. Lightly run your fingers all over your breasts without going across the nipples. Begin at the outer edges and make smaller circles as you work your way inwards. After doing this for a few minutes, FINALLY get to your nipples. Lightly pinch them at first. Get harder as time goes on. For those of you who like a bit of a rougher experience, twist and pull them. DO NOT LET YOURSELF CUM. Play with your nipples for a few minutes. +This next part works better if you have a handheld shower head. If you do not, I will explain an alternate experience that works almost as well. Turn the shower head on to the pulsating mode and aim it at your clit. Run the jet of water back and forth on your slit—from the clit to your vagina. Every time you think you're about to cum, take the shower head stream away from your crotch and count to thirty or until you are relaxed enough to resume play and still be able to control your orgasm. Repeat this until you think that you simply cannot take anymore. That's when you know that it's time to stop what you're doing and drain your tub. As promised, I will now give an alternate way to accomplish this part of play if you do not have a shower head. Drain your tub. You can leave about an inch of water in it if you want to keep warm, but if not, just drain it completely. Turn the tub faucet on. MAKE SURE THE WATER IS LUKE WARM. +If the water is too hot, it will burn and if it is too cold, it just won't feel good. Positioning yourself is kind of tricky and it took me a couple of times to get this down so don't feel bad if you can't get it on your first try. For those of you who aren't very flexible, do not fear! This can be accomplished by people with varying flexibility (trust me, I can't even touch my toes and I can do this). Lie down and scoot your butt all the way to the end of the tub until you can't go any further. You can do one of two things with your legs. The first is just stick them straight up against the wall. The other is to sit cross legged around the faucet, almost holding yourself up to it. If you choose to do the latter, I recommend that you brace yourself up on your arms too, in order to give your upper body a little more support. Again, DO NOT LET YOURSELF CUM. It's ok if you accidentally let one slip, but I promise you, sex will be MUCH better if you hold it in. When you get on the precipice of the point of no return, turn off the faucet and get out of the tub. Pat yourself dry with a towel and head to a comfortable room. +If you have to go out somewhere for the day, wear something that turns you on. For example, wear some skimpy lingerie underneath whatever your going out clothes are or go commando and wear a skirt/dress. If you have to be out for a long time, bring a toy with you but make sure it's easily concealable. Vibrating eggs work especially well because they stay in place and they vibrate. However, if you are uncomfortable using or do not own toys, just use your hand to keep yourself stimulated. +When you get home, find a relaxing environment—I prefer my bedroom. Turn the lights down really low or completely off. Generally, just having some natural light is perfect; your room is neither too bright nor too dark. Strip down until you are completely naked and spread your legs open wide. Once again, play with your breasts (the same way as mentioned above). Then start bringing yourself to the brink of an orgasm again. The key is to keep yourself on the edge. When you're starting to get to that point where you feel like you absolutely will cum if you keep touching yourself, stop and send your partner a sexy message stating exactly what you want him or her to do. Then put something on that you know will excite your partner and wait for his/her return. +Once the fun begins, make sure you partake in foreplay for some time. You want your partner to get you to that same state of almost climax until you're just craving for something inside of you. (This next part is for heterosexual couples. I only have experience with male/female sexual encounters, so that is the only thing I can really write about). Lie on your back and place a pillow underneath your butt. Wrap your legs around your man and make him put just the tip in and start moving slowly back and forth until you can't stop squirming. Have him thrust in and upwards so he hits your g-spot. Make him keep doing this (and rubbing your clit) until you feel the huge orgasm build up inside of you. +Just let go and enjoy the ride!" +388,How to Have an Affair,Timkitten,How To,2005-09-13,2005-09-13,2022-01-04 08:31:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-an-affair,Guide to the dangers of being found out.,"['Affair', 'Affairs', 'Cheating', 'Infidelity']",4.43,"_This book is dedicated to Mary, Joan, Sally, Elaine, Daisy, Jane A., Angela, Kim, Nina, Ann, Jadwiga, Stella, Kate, Dianna, Sarah, Susan, Leah, Jane P. and the others._ +INTRODUCTION: +According to a recent report, more than fifty percent of adults in England take part in one or more affairs while already in a steady relationship. +What is classified as an affair? +An affair normally involves three people; two who are in a permanent relationship, and a third party. One of the three usually doesn't know anything about it. Sometimes one partner knows that the other is having affairs, and either turns a blind eye to it or, very occasionally, actively encourages it. +Some men and some women have multiple affairs, but those are the sort of people who will not benefit from the advice in this book, although they may be able to contribute new material for How to Successfully Have An Affair - Vol 2. +Affairs can become very complicated when both the people involved in the affair have partners. Suddenly the risks of being found out are more than doubled. The risks still exist after the affair has finished as retribution or revenge can rear its ugly head months or even years later. +Many people who have affairs get caught. The idea of this book is to help those who embark on affairs not to get caught. If you are caught, the consequences can be disastrous, and sometimes even lethal. The Fatal Attraction scenario does exist, and if you do get found out you will be very lucky to survive the fall-out unscathed. +This book should be seen as an honest survival guide, rather like published information on the use of illegal drugs. The author doesn't recommend that you should embark on an affair, but if you are going to anyway, then it is best to take some sensible precautions. +The research for this book consisted of placing advertisements in newspapers and magazines. The advertisement requested information from people who had had an affair, or who were currently involved in an affair. Hundreds of stories were received, and many of them have been included in this book. Some people were willing to give direct recorded interviews, and the best of these are also included in this book. +All the names and places have been changed to protect the guilty. +CHAPTER 1: WHY? +Affairs can be divided into two main categories. A relationship that involves sex, and surprisingly, one that doesn't. Many men and women in established relationships have secret liaisons with members of the opposite gender, but without sex. Is this really an affair? Well, although sex doesn't take place, the consequences of being found out will probably be the same. +There are many documented accounts of one partner finding out that their partner was seeing someone else, in a non-sexual relationship. The ""affair"" was purely platonic. They were just going out to dinner or to the theatre together. They even went away for the odd weekend (booking separate hotel rooms). The repercussions were the same as if they were sleeping together. It's perhaps renowned as the biggest known lie - ""We didn't do anything."" Oh yes... who's going to believe that? You might as well have gone the whole way. +The sexual affair is far more common. But why do people who are settled in steady relationships go out looking for more? It could be that there has to be a lot of compromise between two persons living together. In an affair there are not the same restrictions. But if the affair ends up with the couple living together, then once again compromises have to be worked out, and the same old problems might resurface. +Couples feel secure with their lot, and they don't want to lose everything, (financial security, steady comfortable relationship, home, pets, children etc.) unless they are absolutely sure that the new relationship will work out. It's rather like test driving a new car, you are not obliged to lose your old one until you have made your mind up. +Another reason for an affair is boredom. When two people live in a settled relationship for a period of time, life becomes very predictable. Couples leave notes reminding each other that the rubbish should be put out for the refuse collectors. The sex drive diminishes very quickly once a couple start living together. And with the high pressure lifestyles of today, sex becomes something more like a duty which is only performed when both partners are not too tired. "" Something for the weekend, sir?"" +An affair reawakens the sexual drive. It increases the sexual drive so much that an indication that your partner is having an affair is when your partner wants sex more often. It's all a matter of wanting excitement. When couples first start to court each other, they both spend a lot of time and effort on the preparation of their appearance. They will make sure that they are freshly showered, hair washed, and will think carefully about which clothes to wear. This preening can take a couple of hours every day. But when this couple start living together, it all changes. The frequency of bathing diminishes, and any old clothes will do. +LISA: +I've seen so many of my friends enter in a relationship which has ended soon after they start living together. After a few months, both feel that they no longer have to make an effort, and you see them out together in old paint splattered jeans, and a T-shirt. I feel that when they see someone who still dresses very smartly, they find this person very attractive, and an affair ensues. You should always make sure that you make a continual effort to keep clean, and dress smartly for your partner, if you don't want to lose them. +In a normal relationship where both partners are no longer making an effort with their appearance, you should be suspicious if your partner suddenly reverts to their previous ways, and you find them bathing more regularly, and dressing with more thought before they go out. This could be an indication that they are having an affair. +Having an affair boosts self esteem, and spices up a boring life. It makes you feel more of a man or more of a woman. It's a great feeling to know that you are loved by one person. It feels twice as good to know that you are loved by two or more people. +Sometimes the sexual relationship between partners comes to a complete halt. But it is unusual for both partners to loose their sex drive simultaneously. That leaves one person with a very active sexual need. An affair can result as the sexually active partner searches for sexual satisfaction. The affair is based totally on sexual need. +LUKE: +My wife and me got married when we were eighteen, and we decided to have children early, so we could enjoy being with them while we were still young. +After a few years my wife lost all interest in sex. We still loved each other and were best friends. I went elsewhere to satisfy my sexual needs. I had a few inconsequential affairs, and then I met a woman who I fell head over heels in love with. The sex was brilliant, and she was a very warm-hearted and kind woman. I had to make a decision on whether to leave my wife for her. But when it came to the crunch, I couldn't leave my best friend - my wife. So I finished the affair because although there was no sex between my wife and me, I still wanted to stay with her. +Sometimes an affair is accepted by both partners, as a necessary evil, just to allow one partner to satisfy their sexual urges. +NANCY: +After Steve and I got married, I found that I couldn't stand having sex. I was a virgin until my wedding night. I find the whole sexual act utterly repulsive. This obviously caused some pretty major arguments between Steve and me. Steve eventually persuaded me to go and see the doctor. It was so embarrassing, but the doctor acted as though he heard this same story every day and he referred us to a sex therapist. After two years of therapy I gave up, nothing could change my mind. I realised that I would lose Steve unless his needs were satisfied, so we made an agreement. +Steve could go and have as many affairs as he wanted, as long as he never told me about them, and as long as he always came back to me. We have been very happily married for twenty years now, and I presume that he has had affairs, but he has never told me about them. +When a partner is fed up with their normal relationship, and wants to finish it, this can often be the catalyst for an affair. They don't want to simply break the normal relationship as, through experience, the aftermath is always problematic and depressing. It's easier to finish one relationship if you have a new partner to help you through it. This applies particularly to men, who need to know that there will be someone to cook, wash and clean for them. Home comforts are hard to relinquish. +Opportunities for affairs are greater now than they have ever been, with both people in a relationship working and meeting new people outside their social circle. Having an affair used to be almost expected of men, but now more women seem to be embarking on affairs. +Sexual images are ever present in today's society, on television, in films, in magazines and in advertising. It is hardly surprising that people think about sex as much as they do. +CHAPTER 2: WHO? +Most affairs take place between people whom their partners already know. It could be a neighbour, or someone in your social circle. Many people have affairs with colleagues at work. Quite often the affair is with your partner's best friend. This type of affair is fraught with guilt and anguish, as if you are ever found out, your partner feels twice the hurt. Not only have you been unfaithful to your partner and destroyed their trust, but so has their best friend. +As Bernard's experiences illustrate, it can become rather complicated, and rather nasty if your affair is with a friend's partner, once the cat is out of the bag. +BERNARD: +Although I was married, I was having an affair with Sarah, who was my best friend Bob's girlfriend. I feel guilty about it now, but at the time I saw it as a kind of challenge. Bob, Sarah and I used to meet up two or three nights a week in the local pub. Sarah and me were very generous and wouldn't let Bob buy any drinks. Each time we got a round, we made sure that Bob had an extra vodka in his pint, and often kindly bought him a double whisky chaser. +After a couple of hours, the obvious happened, Bob would be reduced to a drunken wreck and would stagger off home. Sarah and I would then go to her flat, secure in the knowledge that Bob would be fast asleep in a drunken stupor at his parent's house. +We carried on like this for a couple of months, and although Bob once caught us kissing, he forgave us and put it down to us having too much to drink. +I wasn't very happy about the situation and the guilt nagged away more and more. I didn't feel guilty about being unfaithful to my wife, I felt guilty every time I met Bob. I didn't want to leave my wife for Sarah, but I pushed Sarah to break up with Bob, to salve my own guilt. +One afternoon Bob turned up at my house very distressed. He had received a letter from Sarah in that morning's post. Sarah had written to tell Bob that she no longer wanted to have a relationship with him. Bob was devastated, and as I was his best friend he needed me to console him. My wife made a pot of tea for us both, and did her best to cheer him up. My wife took me aside and suggested that I should take him out for a few drinks. So I did. +I spent a very depressing evening listening to Bob telling me how much he loved Sarah, and how he couldn't live without her. He eventually became drunk enough for me to take him home, after which I of course went round to see Sarah at her flat. +About a week later, Bob was drinking with an ex-friend of mine who held a grudge against me. My 'friend' decided that it was in everyone's best interest to tell Bob about my affair with Sarah. +The result was that a very drunk Bob turned up at Sarah's flat while I was there, and a rather nasty scene then ensued. The upshot of it all was that Sarah suggested that I should leave, and I did. Bob and Sarah got back together, and four months later they were married. Needless to say, I wasn't invited to the wedding. Bob then embarked on a (possibly justified) hate campaign against me for three years. This involved constant telephone calls at my home and at work, car tyres being slashed and eventually the complete vandalisation of my car. This is what can happen if you have an affair with your best friend's partner. +Generally it is better to have an affair with someone that your partner does not know, and is never likely to meet. So this means avoiding affairs with people who are in your social group, or who are neighbours. Having an affair with a work colleague can be very traumatic. It doesn't take long for everyone else in the workplace to find out. You are also storing up some very big problems when the relationship finishes, especially if you work together in the same department, and either you or your affair partner has a supervisory position. You can imagine the consequences. +It is important to try and avoid at all costs having an affair with the boss's secretary, unless you are planning to leave your employment in the near future. +Never get involved in a family affair, as it is the most dangerous. An affair with a brother's wife or girlfriend, or a sister's husband or boyfriend, will lead to so much trouble, that it could even be lethal. +If you want to live, then affairs with your mother's second husband, or your father's second wife should be avoided. +Keeping it in the family is definitely out. +Having an affair with someone who has children can cause all sorts of problems. +CAROLINE: +I had been seeing Robert whenever I could. He was married and so he had to make excuses to his wife to enable us to get some time together. I had my three kids from a previous disastrous marriage, and was now bringing them up by myself. Robert and I really loved each other, and after a while he left his wife and came to live with us. Although Robert was a kind and gentle man, he had never had any kids of his own, and he couldn't handle the mess, the noise, and the disruption which is caused by three young over-active boys. When we split up he told me that if I hadn't had the kids, then it would have been perfect. I don't hold that against him, it's never easy for someone to bring up someone else's kid, let alone three. +Children can also be responsible for revealing an affair, as Janis to her horror discovered. +JANIS: +My husband was away on business most of every week. My next door neighbour, Douglas, was a writer for those supermarket type magazines. He worked from home and he lived by himself. It was a very hot summer and Douglas started writing in the back garden on fine days. We used to chat over the fence. +He was a good-looking bloke and I quite fancied him. After I had got Daniel, my twelve year old son, off to school, I would change into my bikini and lie out in the garden sunbathing. I had fallen asleep when I was awakened by a hand on my thigh. I opened my eyes and just pulled Douglas down on top of me then and there. We went up to his bedroom and made love. As luck would have it Douglas just happened to be the best lover I'd ever had. +The affair became an everyday occurrence when my husband was away. I felt so good, full of zest, I wanted to shout from the rooftops, I wanted to tell the whole world. But of course I couldn't. I had to write my feelings down somehow, but I dared not keep an ordinary diary that someone might find. I decided that it would be safe to write it down on our computer. You could hide a file so it wouldn't show on the directory, and you could secure the file further by giving it a personal secret code, without which it would be impossible to access. As the affair with Douglas continued I wrote everything down, and in graphic detail. I even allowed my very secret erotic fantasies to be included. When I couldn't see Douglas, I consoled myself by reading over and over again our previous experiences together. +One day as I was packing my son's school bag with his PE kit I found some pages that he had printed from the computer. It was all there, the complete story of my affair with Douglas, and there were three copies. I removed them from his bag and wondered what on earth I could do. Daniel went off to school and I knew that sometime later he would discover that the printouts were missing. I also knew that I would have to tackle him when he got home. I went over to see Douglas and told him what had happened. He was mortified. He suggested that I tell Daniel that none of it was actually true, that I had made all up. Anyway, there was no actual physical proof, he said unconvincingly. I went home and erased the complete diary off the computer. When Daniel came home I decided to tell him the lie. He didn't seem all that bothered, but he was annoyed that I'd removed the three copies that morning, he was selling them to his school friends at a pound a time! The affair finished that day, and soon after Douglas moved away. Daniel never said anything to his Dad, I don't know why. In Daniel's end of term report his form teacher had written, ""Daniel has worked very hard this term and has showed much initiative. He seems to have a great aptitude for working with computers and should be actively encouraged in this area."" Mmmm... yes... I thought. +Be careful in your choice, and look outside your usual life patterns. Join a sports club, or a local theatre group, or sign up for some evening classes; things that you can do without having your usual partner around you all the time. +Men and women are always taking enormous risks while indulging in an affair. Your ideal affair partner can sometimes be found, and if you do find one the chances of being caught are minimised. +Ideally the ultimate affair partner should be a look-alike of your normal partner. The same length and colour hair is very important for two reasons. First, it negates any embarrassing questions of stray hairs found on your clothes, in the car, or even in your bed. Second, if you are noticed at a distance, or passing in a car, your affair partner could be presumed to be your normal partner. +If your affair partner has the same first name as your normal partner, that's always a help, but life isn't normally that easy. It can cause all sorts of problems if you call the wrong person the wrong name. This usually happens when you are off guard; when you are making love, or just waking up, or drifting off to sleep. +The best way to deal with this is to give your affair partner a pet name. Kitten, Tiger, Teddy Bear, Bunny are well used pet names. Then if you were to inadvertently call your usual partner by a pet name, it wouldn't matter. Better still, attach the same name to all your partners, and for ever after. This will avoid a lot of confusion, and that terrible sinking feeling when you realise you've called your partner the wrong name. +PAUL: +I use the pet name Fluffy for my wife, and she calls me Fluffy as well. With every woman that I've had an affair with - and there have been a few - I've called them all Fluffy, which they seem to like. But I wouldn't let them call me by a pet name. I was terrified that they might meet my wife and me at a party and call me Fluffy in front of her. One of my affairs came to an end because of the pet name. My wife confided to a neighbour that in bed I always called her Fluffy. The next time I went around to see the neighbour, she slapped me around the face and called me a bastard, so that was the end of that relationship. +So a perfect affair partner should look and act like your usual partner, and if possible have the same name. Now, there's a challenge. +CHAPTER 3: HOW? +Personal advertisement columns can be found in most magazines and national and local newspapers. Magazines like Private Eye accept adverts from people who are looking for affair partners. The wording is always quite explicit. Respondents are made aware that the advertiser is looking for a discreet affair, and if either happens to be in a steady relationship, or married, no problem. This is a safer way to carry on an affair as you are not trying to hide the relationship from the people within your normal social circle. Both of you are also aware of the rules from the start. +Computers can be used in various ways to advertise your wants. Hidden messages can be left on your intended target's monitor, and messages can be passed to each other through computer office mail systems. Now with the advent of e-mail, one can communicate with anyone, anywhere and any time as long as they are also connected to the internet. +Currently in America, a husband is suing his wife for a divorce on the grounds of adultery. He claims that his wife had an affair over the internet. She never met the person that she was communicating with. +If you wish to have an affair with someone that you know, you have to find a way to make your intentions known to that person. But it has to be done very carefully, and in such a way that your invitation can be declined without losing a friendship. +One method that can be used is to find a go-between, and tell them about the person that you are interested in. You are hoping that they may drop a hint to your intended affair target. This can, of course, have the opposite effect, as Samantha was to find out. +SAMANTHA: +I moved into a new area. A few doors further down from our house lived this wonderful man, who I fancied like hell. The problem was that he was married and so was I. We met a few times at parties, and I kept trying to think of ways of making an approach. I decided to drop some heavy hints to another neighbour, hoping that she would be able to find out if he was interested. +It turned out that she was a close friend of this man's wife, and she told the wife that I fancied her husband. I was rapidly frozen out of the social scene. Fortunately, we had to move soon afterwards. +Various techniques can be employed to see if there is a spark. This is known as testing the water. It's all about giving subtle hints. +You normally meet your potential affair partner in a social situation like a party. One should employ a cat and mouse technique, but make full use of body language. First you must use reverse psychology and show that you are not interested at all. +The cat and mouse technique is very easy to master. In a social situation like a party you can get away with much more than you could, say, at work. Approach the person that you are interested in with a huge smile and make sure that you give the impression that you are brimming with confidence. Direct eye contact is very important. If it is possible, take a physically submissive position. If your intended target is sitting on a chair, then you should sit on the floor or crouch down by their feet. You will be considered as non threatening, which is exactly the feeling you are wishing to give to your intended target. +For a limited amount of time, make your target feel that they are the most important person in the room. Don't talk about yourself, ask questions about them, and if they try to ask you direct questions, then steer the conversation back to them. After only five minutes, get up and talk to someone else, preferably another intended target. +Yes, you are teasing. You are showing great interest in someone, and then trying to make them jealous as you talk to someone else. You are not trying to pull them that night, that's why this technique works. If your first target is interested, you will notice during the evening as you scan the room that you will keep making eye contact. +But keep cool. As you are leaving at the end of the party, find an opportunity to touch. But only briefly, and preferably just a quick squeeze of the hand and a flash of eye contact. Sometimes it is better to leave the party quietly, and without letting your target know that you've gone. +When you next meet this person, it is time to move to phase two. Again take the physically submissive position, but talk for a little longer, although not for too long. You will need to establish some definite common ground for a reason to see each other again. One well-worn path is to find some music that your target would like to hear, and offer to record it for them. This establishes possessional territory. In other words, once you have recorded a tape and dropped it off to your intended target, they are now in possession of something that will constantly remind them of you every time they play it. +When you deliver the cassette, don't wait around. If you are invited in for coffee, refuse. Make some excuse, remember you are still playing hard to get. When you meet for the fourth time, you now have some good common ground to converse on. If the intended target says that they haven't had time to listen to the cassette, it's time to back down. They are obviously not that interested in you. If they were, just the thought that you had recorded the tape for them should have provided enough excitement for them to want to listen to it immediately, and as often as possible. +The cat and mouse technique is a safe non-threatening way to discover whether your intended target wants to have an affair or not. By recording more tapes, or lending a book, you are constantly increasing the frequency of visits and slowly moving into a position where an affair could arise. +When you are ready, be careful how you make your proposition. There is the classic story of a male singer called Jed, who suspected that Jill, a female singer in the same band as he, was interested in having an affair with him. Unfortunately Jed over-estimated her intelligence. +JED: +I needed to ask in such a way, that if the answer was in the negative, I would still be able to save face. After taking some advice from another band member, I 'phoned Jill, and suggested that she might like to come over to my house to practise some harmonies. When Jill arrived, I was freshly showered, and had my best aftershave on, and I was in my dressing gown. Jill went into the front room and discovered an open bottle of wine and lit candles on the main table. I announced that this was the way that I always practised, it set the right atmosphere, I said. After a couple of hours of working together on harmonies, I called a break, and made Jill some coffee. While we were drinking the coffee, I said to Jill, ""I expect that you have heard the rumours."" ""No, what rumours?"" asked Jill. ""Well..."" I said, ""all the members of the band have been saying that the way you and I work together on stage, there is an obvious sexual chemistry, and they all presume that you and I are having an affair."" I rushed on, ""I know it's silly, but hypothetically speaking, would you have been interested?"" The idea behind this approach is that if Jill was to say no, then this leaves me to laugh it off, as a silly band rumour, and I could remind Jill that I used the word ""hypothetically,"" and to cover myself further I could say ""I'm glad that you said no, because I wasn't interested either."" If Jill was to say yes, then my next line would be, ""Prove it!"" However, in this instance it didn't quite work out. Jill didn't know what the word 'hypothetically' meant. The following day she informed the rest of the band that I'd told her that I wanted to have an affair with her. Worse was to come. Later she demanded to know which band members had been spreading untrue rumours about her and me. The band had been going for years, but this botched pass resulted in the break up of the band. +You should be able to tell if an affair is on the books much more easily than Jed. You must look for all the obvious signals: the touching, the closeness, and the off the cuff remarks. It's important to keep up contact in many different ways at this point; send a personal message on a birthday card, make a surprise visit or arrange a surprise meeting, record another tape, or lend another book. Look for situations where you can be together, and alone. But again, just for a very short time. +Remember you are still playing the cat and mouse game. +Allow your intended affair partner to make the decision for you. Try to make it easy by always giving subtle hints. Talk about how much you like to go for walks in the countryside as the sun is setting. You are leaving room for a response such as, ""Why don't we sometime?"" +Talk about other passions, cinema, opera, classical music, or even a rock band. Always be on the lookout for positive signals. But still don't rush. Gently decline the first invitation, giving some excuse why that particular date is not convenient, but suggest they 'phone with an alternative date. If you haven't heard from them over the next couple of days, telephone on some pretext and suggest another date. +But be non-committal; don't forget that you are still playing hard to get. +When you find yourself in the position of starting an affair, life takes on a dream-like quality, it feels unreal, and in the excitement of the first few weeks no one thinks about how it is all going to end. In fact you don't consider there will be an end. +If possible, you should try and make some rules before the situation gets beyond control. The rules are for the starting point only, and can be changed later as the situation changes. +You should make it obvious from the start that you are embarking on an affair, and nothing else. You are not prepared to leave your normal partner, and you don't expect the person that you are having an affair with to leave theirs. Of course, you can always change your mind. +People are used to the way you smell. If your affair partner uses a different type of perfume, or aftershave, your normal partner will notice straight away. The odour lingers for days in a car, or on your clothes. This is easy to deal with. Ask your affair partner which is their favourite perfume/aftershave. Then tell them that it just happens to be your favourite as well. +Go out and buy two bottles of the perfume/aftershave, and give one to your affair partner, and one to your normal partner. Your affair partner will wear it every time you meet, because you bought it for them. Problem solved. +If you ever go for the very high risk strategy of having your affair partner in your own bed, always wash the sheets, duvet cover and pillow cases, because people can tell by smell alone if someone has been in their bed. This should also remove any trace of stray hairs, but to be doubly sure, vacuum the house as well. +By vacuuming the whole house, you end up with two rather useful benefits. First, you feel rather pleased with yourself as you now have a lovely clean dust-free house. But more importantly, you are conducting an inch by inch search which should uncover any unwanted alien items such as earrings, cufflinks, buttons, handkerchiefs etc... +A special warning here about contact lenses. If your affair partner wears contact lenses, they inevitably travel around with a small laboratory, which consists of bottles filled with chemicals, Bunsen burners and so on. So check the bathroom with a fine-tooth comb, and also check all the wastepaper bins. +CHAPTER 4: WHERE? +Where you meet, and how often, determines the risk of being discovered. You should not meet at each other's house, for example. By keeping to that rule you will avoid the spine-chilling sound of a key being inserted in a door, while you are lying in someone else's bed with someone else's partner. +Never meet in local pubs or clubs; you will always meet someone you know, or someone who knows your partner. Always try to meet away from the area that you live in, and not in public places. Even when you meet far away from the area that you live, you can never be assured that life won't conspire in some way to trip you up. This story illustrates the point. +JOHN: +John was married and lived on a large council estate. He was having an affair with Janice, a married woman who lived in the same town, but on a different estate. John arranged to meet Janice in a small country pub thirty miles out of town for a romantic evening meal. It was very quiet in the restaurant, which suited John and Janice, and was one of the reasons that they decided to go there for a meal. At the end of the evening they both went back to their respective partners. The following evening John was questioned by Wendy, his wife, about the previous evenings activities, and John made the usual excuse of working late. What John didn't know was that a friend and neighbour of his wife - Joan - was also having an affair. Joan had been in the same restaurant the previous evening with her affair partner, and they were at the next table. Ironically, she was incensed that John was cheating on Wendy. So Joan told Wendy everything that she had seen and heard. This example goes to show that you are never really safe. +Persons involved in an affair are always looking for some sort of excuse to spend some time away together in a distant town. This enables them to have a night or two of passion, and then spend a day or two in a place where no one knows them. They can walk around the town, arm in arm, and for a while act like any other ordinary couple, without the fear of being discovered. +The first problem is booking into an hotel. It is best not to book in advance, as the hotel may 'phone to confirm the booking details. When you find an hotel you will be asked to sign the register, so to save any embarrassment, decide on what names you are going to use. +If you are going in under the names of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, this could cause problems when you go to pay with a cheque or credit card in another name, unless of course your name happens to be Smith. Hotels are used to women signing in under their own name in these more enlightened times. +All hotels know that many couples that stay are having an affair. They don't mind, as long as the bill is paid. David is a night porter at a central London four star hotel. +DAVID: +Yeah, you can always tell those who should be together and those that shouldn't. If a married couple come to stay you'll find them wandering around the hotel separately. He'll go up to the room with her, and then she'll stay up there while he goes to the bar for a drink. She'll join him for dinner, and she'll just look into space while he'll probably read the paper. They don't really talk or touch. After dinner she goes on up to the room, and he stays in the bar until it closes. Then you get the other ones in. He's usually a lot older than her, she's all very pretty and made up, always high heel shoes, and her eyes are just... well you know, sparkling. They can't wait to sign in, and get to their room. They always look sheepishly at each other when they sign the register. They always arrive at the last minute for dinner, just in time. Then they spend the whole meal looking lovingly into each other's eyes, and talking and touching, and holding hands. Just like lovesick teenagers. +The following morning, they normally miss breakfast, and when they do appear, they look happy, but knackered. +The best way to pay your hotel bill is by cash. That way no record of your stay will appear on a bank or credit card statement. This also allows you to stay under an assumed name, and a false address which can be very important, as Nigel found out. +NIGEL: +I told my wife I was going to an old friend's funeral, and what with the children and the pets, it would be better if I went alone. Anyway it was late November and Newcastle would be quite a drizzly sight this time of year, cold and wet. To top it off she had not known Roger, my best mate at university, so there was no point in her going. She agreed. I picked Anne up that evening, and we drove down to Devon and booked into a hotel over looking the sea. We stayed two nights. It was wonderful, it was magic. Two weeks later my wife opened a Christmas card that was addressed to Mr & Mrs Raunton, that was us. The card had a picture of the hotel covered with snow, on the front, and inside it said, ""Dear Mr. & Mrs. Raunton. The staff and management of the Hatfield Hotel wish you both a very merry Christmas, and a happy New Year. We trust you both enjoyed your visit with us on November 28th & 29th, and we hope that you will visit us again in the near future."" That wasn't one of the best Christmases that I'd ever had, the New Year wasn't much better either. +Try and avoid taking your affair partner to any official functions, as this can cause unforeseen circumstances as Derek can well testify. +DEREK: +I had to go abroad to a conference, all expenses paid, but my wife didn't want to come. I was having an affair with a girl called Annette, so I took her. When I got to Denmark I introduced Annette as my wife. Well, who would know here? I thought. +Two days after I arrived back in England, my wife received a huge bouquet of flowers, and a card thanking her for presiding so graciously over the conference. Whoops! After that the handcuffs went on, and the wife never let me out of her sight again. Needless to say, the affair with Annette came to an abrupt halt. +Many affairs are conducted wholly or partly in cars. This can cause unforeseen problems, as the following story illustrates. +ANNE: +Thursday night was my night out with the girls. My husband Alan accepted that, and stayed in to look after the kids. To start with I was in a ladies pub darts team, but after a while I noticed this gorgeous looking bloke eyeing me up at every match. I got chatting to him, and then this led on to Scott and me having an affair. I still pretended to Alan that I was going out playing darts every week. Scott used to pick me up from the pub and then we would drive out into the country and find a field somewhere. +Sometimes we drove to a wood which had a kind of picnic area. It was a very popular spot for courting couples late at night. It was quite funny to watch the cars rocking back and forth, and to hear the grunts and groans of pleasure from the couples inside. One very hot August night, Scott and me were sitting in the front of his car, smoking a cigarette after making love. All the cars had their windows open as it was so hot, and we were being entertained by the couple in the car next to us. All we could see was a man's bottom going up and down. It was quite spotty. Suddenly I had an awful feeling. I recognised it! It was my husband's! +My first thought was to get out of Scott's car, and drag Alan off the woman, and scream and shout and hit them. Luckily I remembered that I shouldn't be here with Scott either. I slid low into the seat and told Scott to drive out quick. When I got home I found that Alan wasn't back, but he had booked a baby sitter. I introduced myself and quizzed the poor girl about the arrangements. She said that Alan had been getting her to baby-sit for the last six months! I paid her the money and waited for Alan to come home, which he did, exactly as the clock struck eleven. +I realised that I always got home about twelve, and when I came in he was always asleep on the sofa. No wonder! He was surprised to see me home so early, and said that he had had some urgent business to attend to, which is why he had to go out at the last minute. I couldn't tell him what I knew without exposing myself, so I told him that I had come home early because I had a bad headache. I made a few inquiries and it was revealed that Alan had been carrying on with this woman for six months. Furthermore, the baby sitter was Alan's woman's younger sister. It didn't take long for everything to come out into the open, and that was the end of our marriage. +Cars also have an element of danger completely unrelated to the affair, as Richard found out. +RICHARD: +I was having an affair with a young secretary in my office. Lisa and I took every opportunity to get away for a few hours. One afternoon we finished work at twelve and drove up to the Lake District, and booked into a small bed and breakfast place that we knew. It was a four hour drive, but when we got there we telephoned our respective partners and made up some story about an urgent business meeting that we had to attend in Wales, and we wouldn't be home until late tomorrow evening. Of course to avoid any suspicion we didn't mention that we would be together. +On the way home we had a very bad car accident, and we were both taken to hospital with serious injuries. I remember lying in bed feeling ill, and trying to explain to a policeman why he mustn't 'phone my wife. He apologised, and said it was too late, my wife and Lisa's partner would be arriving within the next hour. +When they arrived they couldn't work out why we were together in a hospital in the Lake District. +Although badly hurt, we managed to lie our way out of it by saying that there was a last minute change to the business meeting, and that it was important that Lisa, as my secretary, should be with me. My wife and Lisa's partner never found out the real truth. +Cars can also go wrong. Make sure you have yours regularly serviced if you are having an affair. +KIRK: +I borrowed my girlfriend Kim's Austin Metro on the pretence that I was going to see a friend in Cambridge for the weekend. I picked up my other girlfriend, Laura, and drove her down to Devon. On the Sunday morning, as I started the car, there was a huge bang. I didn't have any money, but I called out the local garage to look at it. The mechanic shook his head and said the drive shaft had shattered. He added that he would give me ten quid for its scrap value. +I 'phoned Kim and told her about the car, and asked whether I should accept the money. She was very upset, but she said no, she had an uncle in Cambridge who would come and pick it up, apparently he was very good with cars and could probably fix it up for her. Problem; the car wasn't in Cambridge, it was in Devon, outside a cheap bed and breakfast, and with another woman in it. +I tried to persuade Kim to accept the ten quid, as I needed the money for the train fare home, although ten quid was not enough to get us both home. But Kim wasn't having any of it. She asked for the address in Cambridge where the car was. So I made one up. She said that her uncle would be there soon, and he would give me a lift back. +I told Laura what the problem was. She was brilliant. She suggested that I 'phone Kim back and tell her that when I got back to the car, someone had either stolen it, or towed it away. But not to 'phone Kim until we were getting near to Cambridge. The delay in 'phoning could be explained away by saying I had spent a few hours looking for it. +We sold the car for fifteen pounds to the mechanic, and got him to drive us to the station. Within two and a half hours we were at Cambridge station. I 'phoned and told Kim the ""bad news."" She was frantic because her uncle had 'phoned her saying that he couldn't find the address that I had given her. I told Kim to 'phone her uncle on his mobile, and to ask him to pick me up from Cambridge station. He had gone back home, so this gave me just about enough time to rush to Cambridge police station and report the ""theft"" of the car. +Laura hitched from Cambridge and Kim's uncle drove me home. Kim claimed on her insurance for the theft of her car. Everything was fine until the insurance company came across the registration of her car. The log book showed the new owner as a mechanic in Devon. Then the police got involved and eventually I had to tell the truth, with the obvious consequences. +Cars have other ways of exposing affairs. People recognise their friend's or relative's car. How often has someone said to you something like, ""What were you doing in Almeda Avenue last Thursday at 3.30pm."" Yes, they saw your car parked on the road. We even recognise cars when passing in opposite directions on a dual carriageway. Emma's story illustrates the dangers of using your own car. +EMMA: +I could have parked the car anywhere. But I didn't think. I was seeing this man called Ralph, and I used to drive to his house as soon as my husband had gone to work. Ralph and I had been seeing each other for about five months, and Ralph was a good friend of my husband. +One fateful day my husband was passing by and noticed my car outside Ralph's house. He parked the car, and rang the doorbell, presuming that I had just dropped in to see Ralph for a cup of tea and a chat. Ralph didn't bother getting dressed, he just went to the door naked and opened it. My husband pushed past him, ran upstairs and discovered me lying naked and tied up on the bed. It was not a very friendly scene after that. +Probably the safest way to conduct an affair is to rent a flat in another town, and use that as your meeting place. It is an expensive option, and you have to hide the expenses of rent and other bills. On the other hand, have an affair with a single person who lives on their own. You will then have all the comfort and security that you desire. +CHAPTER 5: BEWARE! +When you are having an affair, you are aware that it has to be kept a secret, but as the affair continues you become more confident, and you selectively tell a few close friends. One of the reasons people tell their friends is because it is like an insurance. Your friends will give you back-up and support if the affair ever comes out into the open. The friends who didn't know would be annoyed because you hadn't told them. Others would revel in the position of being able to say, ""Yes I knew."" +Another reason we tell our friends is because we feel slightly guilty, and we want to share the guilt with them. Possibly we tell our friends because we wish to strengthen our friendship bonds, by sharing with them an important and secret part of your life. Of course it could be that we just want to show off. +You shouldn't tell anyone at all. For each person that you tell, they will tell at least their own partner. Their partner will tell at least one other person, and so it goes on. It should be made a rule from the outset between you and your affair partner, that neither of you will tell anyone else. If you don't adhere to that rule, then it won't be long before you are found out. +When people involve themselves in affairs, it is quite usual for them to discuss their other partner. It is not advisable to slag off the other partner, for this can often come back to haunt you at a later date. It also gives the impression to your affair partner that you want to break up your normal relationship. +Never let your affair partner meet your usual partner, because if the affair is revealed, then your normal partner feels far more hurt if they thought they were friends with your affair partner. +People like to think that they can tell if their partner is having an affair. But it is always devastating when they find out, and again it's worse if your affair partner turns out to be someone that they knew or trusted. +It is quite a thrilling sensation when your normal partner meets your affair partner seemingly by accident at some sort of social event such as a party. But you have to go out of your way not to be seen taking notice of your affair partner, to avoid raising suspicions. This inevitably upsets your affair partner, but you can always make it up to them later. +There are many ways that an affair can be discovered. Sometimes people want their usual partner to discover that they are having an affair. To successfully hide an affair one must always be diligent, and never be forgetful or sloppy. You always have to be running on full throttle, and must never stop concentrating, even for a moment. +Newton's maxim, ""To every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction"" has to become your motto. In other words, every contact that you have with your affair partner must be thoughtfully considered and then reacted to, to cover your tracks. +The telephone is probably responsible for bringing many affairs out into the open. It is best never to give your home 'phone number to your affair partner in case they are ever tempted to 'phone on the off chance that you will be in, and your normal partner out. +SAM: +I was having an affair with this girl, who went away on a skiing holiday. To my horror I discovered that she was phoning my home every day. If my wife answered the 'phone, she just cut the call. If I answered she would always say, ""Is it convenient to talk?"" +It never was, as my wife was always in the room, so I had to pretend that it was a wrong number. When she came back from the holiday she told me that the reason she 'phoned every day was so she could hear my voice on the answering machine. +With the advent of call-back facilities, by pressing the numbers 1471 a recorded announcement relates the number that has called your 'phone, and the exact time of the call. Most people now keep a record of all their friend's numbers in numerical order, to enable them to quickly identify who called, and when. It's very frustrating when you don't recognise the number that has called, and after a while most people 'phone the number and say ""Hi - you were trying to contact me earlier."" Imagine the problem if your partner has 'phoned either your affair partner, or your affair partner's partner. If that makes sense! +Never telephone your affair partner from you own home for three very good reasons. First your live-in partner may have made an earlier 'phone call to someone who was out, and not realised that you have made a subsequent one. So they press the button for last number redial. They might just do that if they were suspicious as well. The second reason to avoid 'phoning from home is that most bills are now itemised, and people do like to check through the telephone bill when it arrives. +If it is imperative to 'phone your affair partner from your home, then always calculate the cost of the call for the time of the day, and make sure that the total cost is below forty-nine pence. Any calls under forty nine pence do not appear on an itemised bill, unless it is a mobile phone. After you have made the call, 'phone anyone you want to for a chat. This covers you for last number redial. +The third reason not to 'phone your affair partner is because many people have extension 'phones installed, as Susan knows only too well. +SUSAN: +Mike and me had been having an affair for two years, and we prided ourselves on how we had managed to keep it secret for so long. Mike used to 'phone me from his office at lunchtime every day. He would always ask me what I was wearing, and to excite him I'd tell him that I was wearing some slinky underwear and was lying on the bed, imagining that he was touching me all over. I wasn't though, I was just in jeans and a T-shirt or a tracksuit, and was ironing, or watching TV, but he didn't know that. The 'phone calls always got him so worked up that they made me feel very sexy too. So after a couple of weeks, I decided it might be quite enjoyable to actually do the things that I was telling him I was doing. +From then onwards, on every weekday, I would go upstairs to the bedroom, draw the curtains, dress up, and lie in bed waiting for Mike to ring. +It all came to a horrible end. My husband Dennis was a sales representative and unknown to me had come home early as he wasn't feeling very well. He had presumed that I was out shopping, and he picked up the downstairs 'phone to cancel his afternoon calls. At first he thought that he had a crossed line, and I think he was quite enjoying listening in. After about fifteen minutes of Mike and I ""doing it"" on the 'phone, he suddenly realised that it was me. There was a big row, and then it all had to come out. We are now divorced, and I lost Mike as well, because he decided to finish the affair in case Dennis told his wife. All this due to a bloody extension 'phone. +Mobile phones are a notoriously insecure method of communications, as some members of the Royal Family have discovered to their cost. The problem with mobile 'phones is that anybody with a scanner can listen in, and even record conversations. This opens you up to possible blackmail. Text messages can also expose an affair. +DUNCAN +I was having a purely sexual lustful relationship with a girl twenty years younger than me. We text each other all day. Smutty and suggestive text. I hid the 'phone behind the light in the shower, no way would my wife take the light cover off and look in there. I was out with this girl when my wife needed to contact me and rang my mobile 'phone. She dialled the number and could hear my mobile upstairs and went to investigate. She was rather surprised to find it in the bathroom. Because of where I'd hid it, she was naturally suspicious and looked at my text messages. And there they all were, all in graphic detail. That was the end of the marriage. +You must delete all text messages as soon as you receive them, and delete all your sent items also. +Also, as previously mentioned, all calls on a mobile 'phone are itemised on the bill. The best advice on 'phones is to be very careful, and use public 'phones when communicating. It's inconvenient, but it's safer. +Letter writing is very dangerous, as there is always the chance of someone discovering the letters. The only safe way to write a letter to your lover is to post it to an understanding friend of theirs. But people who are in love are sentimental, and they like to keep the letters. Where do you hide them? Nowhere is safe. Any letters, notes, cards etc. must be destroyed. If you keep them they probably will be found, and they can even be used as evidence against you in future divorce proceedings. +Illicit lovers are very tempted to send birthday or Christmas cards to each other, hoping that they won't be noticed by your normal partner among all the others. Don't be fooled, as they will be noticed. Of course, there is one time of the year when you can get away with it, and that is on Valentine's Day. As they are supposed to be anonymous, you can always make the excuse that your mum/dad/sister/brother have often sent one to you before, as a joke. +The weather was nearly responsible for bringing one affair into the open. Jim was having an affair with a girl called Rita. Rita lived in the same street as Jim and Jim's wife. +JIM: +My wife was always up by 5 a.m. to go to work. I waited until she went to sleep, then I slipped out of the house and went to visit Rita. I had to be back before my wife woke up, and there was one classic occasion where as I crept back into the bedroom and had my trousers round my ankles, my wife put the light on and said ""Well... you're up early this morning."" ""Yes couldn't get back to sleep,"" I said as pulled my trousers back up. +One night I slipped out to see Rita. Later as I left her house I noticed a heavy covering of snow had fallen. It was beautiful, so still and so quiet. I trudged up the road back to my house and was just going to insert the key into the lock as I looked back down the road. There was a perfect trail of footprints in the snow, going from Rita's house right to my front door. +There were no other tracks in the snow, and my wife was going to be up and out in twenty minutes. I had no option, as it was a very quiet road and I knew there would be no passers by at this time in the morning. So I spent the next ten minutes running up and down the road leaving false trails to nearly every house in the road. I was freezing cold, and the snow had soaked my shoes. My feet felt like blocks of ice. That was close. +Sometimes your usual partner loves you so much that they will go to great lengths to give to you a sign of that love. Mary was going away for a weekend on a management course. Mary gave her husband Tony the details of the hotel that she was staying in, in case he needed to contact her about the children. +MARY: +I could see Tony and the two kids in the rear view mirror waving goodbye, as I drove off on the two hundred mile journey to the hotel. I loved Tony lots, and I felt a bit emotional as I left them behind. +The course consisted of two nights in the hotel. After dinner on the first night, I was sitting in the bar when one of the others on the course came over and offered to buy me a drink. His name was Gavin. I noticed Gavin earlier, he was one of those men that just made you feel all gooey inside. We had a few drinks, and I just felt overwhelmed with desire. As we went upstairs he asked me if I would like to have a night cap in his room. So I did. He said that if I wanted I could stay the night with him. I really wanted to, but because of Tony and the kids I thanked Gavin for the offer and went alone to my own room. +The next day we had to work together as a team, and by the evening all my principles and morals had flown out of the window. I thought that if Gavin didn't ask me to stay the night with him, I would throw myself at his feet and beg him. After dinner we retired to the bar and had a few drinks. I suggested to Gavin that perhaps he would like to come up to my room for a night cap. Well, that was that. We were like animals. +Tony had decided to pay me a surprise visit. He asked his sister to look after the children, and got on a coach in the early evening. He arrived at the hotel just before midnight. He showed identification to the hotel receptionist, and told her that it was our wedding anniversary, (although it wasn't), and that he had made the journey to give me a wonderful surprise. She gave Tony a keycard to my room so he could let himself in. +It was quite a surprise for all concerned. +An affair in an hotel is always a very high risk. There have been many stories about celebrities, and even the odd Member of Parliament, dying in an hotel bed with someone else other than their normal partner beside them. +Taking photographs or videos of your affair partner is not recommended. One tends to forget what's on a roll of film until it comes back from the developers. And on videos it is sometimes impossible to erase previous filming, or you forget what is on which video tape. George had invited a few friends around for a party, but the party broke up earlier than George expected. +GEORGE: +Christine was a neighbour and she and I had been having a steamy affair ever since I got married to Tracy, four years previously. Tracy and I put on a party. Some of the lads knew I had a few blue movies, and pestered me to put them on in the back room, so I did. They usually watched them quietly, but this night there were lots of shouts and cheers. I was talking to Christine and some other friends in the front room when Tracy decided to investigate what was going on in the back room. +There was a terrific scream, and Tracy flew at Christine and at me with a bottle. We managed to get out with just a few bruises. As I stood outside my house wondering what had happened, the bedroom window smashed open as Tracy started hurling everything out of it. By then every had decided it was probably best to leave. One of my mates told me what had happened. They had come across a video of Christine and me making love. +Well, that was it really. What could I say? That was the end of my marriage, at that point. I was certain that I'd erased that particular video, but obviously I was mistaken. Worse still, I saw a very grainy copy of it a few years later at someone else's house. I couldn't believe it! I knew it was me and Christine, but no one else did. I stole the tape that night and burnt it. +But I know there must be lots of other copies around somewhere, which will no doubt come back to haunt me every now and again. +The main thrust of this chapter is beware of technology in all its forms, as the technology of today will use its full force and power to reveal an affair, at every opportunity. +If you are still considering, or currently having an affair, good luck, and be careful." +389,How to Have Good Sex After Marriage,BatsandGlamour,How To,2002-05-23,2002-05-23,2022-01-04 08:31:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-good-sex-after-marriage,It's not over yet! How to heat up the sheets at home.,"['Adult Entertainment', 'Anal Sex', 'Gonna Cum', 'Great Deal', 'Improve Sex', 'Married Sex', 'Sex', 'Sex Great', 'Sex Life', 'Sexually Satisfying']",4.52,"I recently wrote a story for literotica called ""How to Fuck Your Wife In The Ass."" It is a collection of points that I wish had been presented to me when I became interested in punching things up with anal sex. I think they would have saved me a lot of time and error. And given my sex life a kick in the ass (sorry). I've been rewarded with a great deal of positive feedback from that story, for which I am truly grateful. +One of the feedback emails I received contained the following poignant question: +""I'm counting my last days as a bachelor, and when I get married I'm surely going to use your tactics. But tell me one thing - is anal sex going to spoil a relationship if not done properly or if the wife is reluctant about it?"" +This touching question got me to thinking about the nature of marriage and sex. I don't claim to be a Ph.D. in the field of marital psychology or sex therapy. But I _have_ been through the ups and downs of a married sex life. So have all my friends, and we've talked about it at length – still do. As a result, I've learned a great deal about what can be done to make married sex better – _tons_ better. Who would you trust more, someone who reads about it or someone who _lives_ it? +My second 'disclaimer' is that I don't profess to know about sex at 50 or 60 years old or later. I know what I've learned in 43 years, and it's been a lot. Lastly, my point of view is a male one – can't help it. Though I always do my best to see things from both sides. +Now then, let's get to it. +When you're serious with a girl or engaged, sex is great. In point of fact, the sex _may or may not_ actually be great, but just being intimate with someone you love is powerful enough to overcome a lot. For a while. And in your youth, you're naïve enough to think that whatever shortcomings may be in your sex life will magically repair themselves, because that is what love's all about. Sure it is. +In addition, many of you may think, as I did, that if you once had a sexually satisfying relationship in the past, that your current relationship would get there, too. That all relationships end up sexually satisfying, just at different rates of speed. This kind of rationalization is only made by those who are happy with the girl (or guy) but not the sex, and is usually either incredibly wishful thinking or just plain dead wrong. Think about it – why is it going to change? Because they'll love you more? Because they'll become more comfortable with you? If you're not there on both counts already, then why on earth are you getting married? +In any case, let's assume that you _are_ married, and you're moving along in your life, marriage and career. Ten years goes by – fast! Maybe you have a child or two – all wonderful. Then you wake up one day as if you've been in a coma with one overriding thought: ""Holy cow – my sex life sucks! I thought it would get better, I thought it would take care of itself, I thought love would conquer all, I thought I'd stay firm without exercise and keep all my hair!"" Sorry – you're on the wrong train. +It's at this point where men freak out a little and try to fix everything at once. We invariably blame our wives for everything (even the hair) and inform her that if things don't get better, there's going to be a real problem. Or we do one of two things, which are even worse. +1\. We find a substitute, perhaps at work, and start an affair, which usually damages the marriage beyond repair. Or +2\. We resign ourselves to having a crummy sex life and chalk it up to another aspect of our lost youth. We then replace the sex with something else, typically golf or home improvements. +In my case, I got very angry and frustrated. I didn't have an affair or take up golf, though I did improve a few things at home. I had a frank discussion with my wife and found out many things. First, that she loved me and was still attracted to me. Second, that she didn't have a clue herself about how to improve our sex life and third, the _biggie_ \- that she didn't realize it was so bad. +This is so key. She's _got_ to know how you feel and visa versa. If she's gained 100 pounds and just doesn't float your boat, she's got to know. If you've let yourself go as well, and loaf around the house in a ripped up unwashed t-shirt that makes her want to stay away from you, she's got to tell you. Neither of you are mind readers. But you just can't, and shouldn't, suffer in silence. Have a candid discussion, using tact and a gentle, not blaming tone, to discuss how you feel about each other and the situation. +These points bear further scrutiny. The first thing I had to know was if her head was still in the marriage. If we had faded away somehow without knowing, then I didn't want to waste both our efforts in mending something beyond repair. Perhaps she had lost her desire for me. I'm not the gorgeous young boy I used to be, I guess. I just needed _the truth_. The truth was, we were ok there. +Second, I found she didn't realize that there had been a problem. Can you imagine? Talk about a communications gap. Yet it's so incredibly common. My friends all agree. You see, no two people have the same sex drive. Mine happens to be very strong, while hers is probably average. Therefore, while I was drowning in my frustration, she thought our sex life was just fine. +Third, although she told me she'd be happy to try new things, she didn't have the first idea of what to change or how. In short, it was up to me. That was just fine, I don't mind doing a little research. But the salient issue here is that she was _willing to improve_ our sex life. If she hadn't, if she had been insulted that what we had wasn't enough for me, then we would have had a much greater problem. Not insurmountable, but more significant. +So now I had my mandate – ""OK, let's improve our sex life."" But how? I personally can't stand when people tell me all about the problem but offer no solution. Not me. So - here's your blueprint, here's what I did. +1\. I discovered porn. Not gross, disgusting, boring porn, but hot adult entertainment with gorgeous girls, good looking guys and reasonable plots. The first time we watched one, my wife got so horny she could hardly control herself – and didn't. This effect didn't occur as strongly after a few videos, and you can't go back to the well too often, but an occasional video is arousing as hell. More important, you can learn many great positions from these videos. If you really want specific recommendations, email me. +By the way, the effects of port hold true regardless of the medium. So, reading stories from this website, or other erotic stories, can have the same effect. One of the most important and valuable aspects of adult entertainment of any variety is to help you _switch gears_ from talking about how your day was or what the kids are doing, to thinking about and engaging is satisfying sex. +2\. I bought her some sexy outfits. I know a lot of people think, ""why buy them, they just come right off."" Well, do they have to? Can't she wear it under a robe around the house? Or under her clothes when you're out to dinner, a foreshadow of things to 'cum' later? The point of sexy lingerie is not how long it's on, but how it makes her feel about herself. When your lady starts thinking about herself as a sexual person, only good things can come of it. Same goes for you. Are you still wearing those stained 'tighty whities' with the elastic coming out of the band? The kind you wore in summer camp 25 years ago? Get some new underpants man! Splurge on $5-10 a pair. Either nice tight briefs, boxer briefs or silk boxers – whatever you're comfortable in. Buy a pair of each and ask her what she likes. +3\. Change the scenery. We went away for a romantic weekend to kick off our new foray into romance and sexual adventure. We went to a B&B in the country, but it can be anywhere, as long as it's time alone without distraction. It was as though we were on a new, exciting journey together. It has to be together. +4\. We mastered anal sex, which is what the previous article is about, so I won't repeat myself about that process. Suffice to say that once we got comfortable with it, anal sex spiced things up quite a bit. +5\. We bought and leaned to use a few toys; such as a vibrator (there are many to choose from and I recommend you buy a few) a blindfold, perhaps some fur handcuffs. Look on the internet – get creative and have some fun. +6\. We enjoy the arousing nature of 'dirty talk.' There's nothing more stirring than to hear your wife say things like, ""I love how your big cock feels inside me,"" or ""Fuck me baby, fuck me harder – slam into me, make me hurt, make me moan,"" or even ""That's it, lick my pussy – I'm gonna cum so hard, I'm . . . gonna . . . cum . . .NOW!"" Anything but ""Wait a minute, did I forget to call my mother back?"" +Now look, I know some women might think this is ""faking it."" But who doesn't fake things? When the boss says, ""So how are we doing today?"" does your wife reply ""Shitty, asshole. I'm getting my period and I feel like crap, plus I've got a big, sore pimple on my butt – wanna see?"" Is it real for a woman to wear makeup? Ask her this: what does she think most men would prefer, a girl who is dead silent because that's what's 'real', or a girl who moans, cries and talks like a porn star? Just ask her how much she really wants to satisfy you. +This goes for men as well. I'm sure it's very satisfying for a women to hear, ""It feels so nice to be inside of you, you're so beautiful,"" while making love. Of course other women may get more aroused hearing, ""I'm gonna fuck you hard and long – I'm gonna make you scream my name."" It's all individual preference of course. But surely you'll agree that dead silence, or the occasional moan from an uncomfortable position, does not make for spirited lovemaking. Lastly, and this goes for both of you, it may seem a bit uncomfortable or unnatural at first. It will become second nature in a short time, and is _very cool_. +7\. We tried a bit of fantasy/role playing. Did you ever hear about the nasty schoolgirl and the strict headmaster? How about the prison guard and the desperately horny prisoner? Let's face it, it's fun to pretend. Add sex to the mix, and it can be totally hot, erotic and memorable. The rules are – there are no rules. When some people think about fantasy, they think their wives are having sex with them while thinking about their ex boyfriends. First of all, if this is the case, there's nothing you can do about it and you probably won't know. Second, and the truth may hurt here, if it makes them hot and bothered, where's the problem? They're with _you_ , right? People's private thoughts are private, and that's not what fantasy is about. It's about creating a situation which promotes imaginative sex. Dressing up, or just acting a certain way that fulfills the fantasy can be fun and different. That's what makes it great. Hey, sometimes you like the chicken barbecued, and sometimes you may like it breaded over rice with sauce. Viva la differences! +8\. We found some good lubricants. Lubricants are used in several ways; for intercourse, both vaginal and anal, for massages on all parts of the body. Some women are real gushers once you get their juices flowing. Others are not. It doesn't mean they're not excited, it's just their physical makeup. But it can make sex a little 'dry' and perhaps even painful for them unless and until they become wetter. But if you use a slippery lubricant, Astroglide for example, you cock will slide in like the proverbial hot knife through butter. It sure is more exciting to start slamming into a warm, lubricated vagina than to go slow and easy until she's wetter, by which time a man may be ready to blast off. +I'm sure many more tips and techniques to enhance married sex than I've covered in this article. But you have to start somewhere! One of the wonderful things about this website is its member participation. If you have methods that have worked for you, I'm not just eager to hear them, I'm _dying_ to hear them!

It's not a guide for nudists, as nudists don't usually associate nudity with sex. +I'm writing it because being naked and fucking on a remote, secluded or even sparsely populated beach is the one of life's great erotic experiences. The combination of the exhilarating freedom of being naked in the elements combines with the risk of being caught to produce an incredible sexual frisson. This guide is for not for the experienced: it's for those who are interested in trying it. +Step 1 -- Overcoming fear and timidity +You can't run before you can walk: don't expect to head down to the local beach, strip off and hit on your significant other in a trice. It won't work: you'll be far too nervous even to take your clothes off. +First of all, get comfortable being naked. While it is not always the case, women find this initial stage harder than men. So take it slow. If you have not been topless before, take a trip to a beachwear shop and buy a skimpy bikini. Then find a beach where topless bathing is accepted (stay away from ""family"" beaches). Try letting your husband or boyfriend slip the top off in the water first: water flowing over sensitive nipples is very sensual. Stay under water and no one will see. Next try slipping your top off while you are sunbaking on your front. When you feel comfortable doing it, flip over on your back. +What you'll notice is that you won't be stared at, provided toplessness is the norm at the beach you have chosen. You might get a few admiring looks, which you might find a bit embarrassing at first, but they'll also excite you. +Take a few trips to the beach doing this, to get really comfortable with the idea of being topless. If you feel up to it, walk around the beach and into the water topless. Get to the point where it's the norm, and it's not something that worries you. You'll both naturally start to combine all this with some mild sex play. Do this in the water, and you can have total privacy. Provide you've chosen a beach that's not densely populated, you can do it on dry land as well. Guys, caress your girl's tits and nipples, and feel her clit and pussy gently. Girls: you know what to do. In the end, you'll both rush home and fuck each other's brains out. +The next step is getting it all off. Girls, you might find this easier than your partners, as you've already done half the job. But for both of you, it's a big step: risking being seen by total strangers completely naked. There are two approaches: one is to go to an official or unofficial clothing optional beach, and joining the throng. If you can overcome your initial fear, you'll relax quickly as you'll be two of many. If that's too confronting, the other option is a deserted beach or one with hardly anyone it. These are harder to find, but I reckon that's a better option. Once the bottoms are off, you're much freer to be yourselves, horse around in the water and on the beach and so on. Other beachcombers won't make a fuss, and will keep a discreet distance. +If neither of these options works for you, try going out to a quiet beach on a warm night. But don't swim out: if anything happens, no one will be there to rescue you. Waste deep is as far as you should go out. +Once you've done this a few times, you'll be ready to take the whole thing much further, if you haven't already started, and the rest of this guide is designed to help you do just that. +Step 2 -- Choosing the right beach +Rule number one is that it needs to be remote. This usually involves a walk from the car, and it will mean a drive away from main population centres. It can be a clothing optional beach, but it's more likely to be an unofficial one than an official one, as there will be fewer people there. A thinly populated unofficial CO beach is the best: if other people are naked, you won't draw as much attention to yourselves. But CO is not essential: the most important thing is a thin spread of people. The people on it need to be sufficiently spread out so that each person can't easily see what everyone else is doing. +Rule number two is to go somewhere you won't be known: you'll be far more relaxed about this far from home, I can tell you! If you do get caught, you don't want to get caught by your friends. In fact, doing this on vacation is a great idea, provided you are able to suss out the local beaches. +Rule number three: don't choose a busy period. Labor day weekend or spring break are no nos for first timers. Even weekends are not great. Weekdays, particularly those early in the week, are good. Go early morning -- say around nine -- before many people have arrived or after four, when most have left. +Rule number four is to find a fairly long beach: this will allow you to find a part with few others on it, to pick your spot. +The most important rule of all is to find a pretty beach, with nice sand, trees and bushes. Choose a day which is warm not hot, and not too windy. Strong breezes are distinctly unromantic. +Step 3 -- Choosing your spot on the right beach +There are two distinct approaches here. Find a spot in the dunes or bushes, which is totally private. There's only one problem with this: if someone walks in on you, you'll have no warning at all, and there'll be red faces and limp pricks all round, particular if this is your first time. +For this reason, even though you'll feel much more exposed, I think you're best to choose an open part of the beach, where you can see people coming for miles, so you have plenty of warning before others get too close. Check the fringes of the beach to make sure that there are no tracks at that point from the road, to avoid surprises from the hinterland. Other than that, ensure that you are far enough away from the nearest people so that you can't really see what they're doing. If you can't see them, they won't see you. +Step 4 -- Doing it the first time +Get comfortable first, relax in the sun, go for a swim. Whatever. Don't try to have sex the nanosecond you arrive. +A bit of serious foreplay is a great way to start, and it's very easy to stop quickly if you have unwanted visitors. Guys, if you girl is multi-orgasmic, try getting her off by masturbating her: she can lie flat face up, while you can lie on your side, finger her and keep a lookout at the same time. +Girls: give your guy the start of a blow job. Your guy can be on his back, lying down, while you kneel over him and suck him off. Guys: it's your job to keep the lookout. In this position: no girl can give a decent blow job and watch for intruders at the same time. +When it comes to the first fuck, there's one position which is just meant for sex on the beach, and that's the cowgirl position. It works well on sand, and you have an instant female lookout tower with a 270 deg. range of vision. If you choose cowgirl, no visitor will ever be a total surprise. This is a stunning position anyway: the girl is in control but has impaled herself, the guy has this fantastic view of his lover's torso, from her cunt and pubic hair over that lovely flat expanse of tummy to her tits. The guy can also watch, as his prick slides into her cunt. He can feel her clit and her tits, or she can feel her own, if she's so inclined (many are). Best of all guys, she can squeeze your balls while she fingers herself as you feel her tits and you both come. +Missionary and girl on top both work OK, but the sand will always slip away from your ass, making it hard to maintain penetration some times. Spooning works quite well too. Doggy style is obviously fine, although this is one that anyone who can make you out at all will recognise. But hell, who cares if they do? +Either way, finish it off with a swim. You can clean up and have more fun at the same time. +Spicing it up +If you both get into this, you'll develop your own ways of giving the whole experience more of a sexual edge. Here's a few ideas based on our experiences. Some of the ideas lean towards a bit of exhibitionism, but if you've got this far you have the tendencies anyway. +Girls, try getting yourselves off. If your guy is into live porn (most men are), there's nothing much hotter than a female flat on her back in a public place, legs spread, rubbing her cunt as if her life depended on it and then having an explosive orgasm (and believe me you will in that setting). +Try wandering up and down the beach without your clothes on and without towels of anything. The sense of freedom is just unbelievable. Find some hard sand, lie down and fuck each other and it's even better. +The wandering about bit can be good fun at an unofficial CO beach, as you can wander around among the others on the beach and do some mutual looking. Girls, if you get into this, you'll appreciate some admiring looks from other men, some of whom will be on their own. Don't be afraid of smiling in their direction: you'll make their day, and you'll turn yourself right on. Guys, if you've got good control, get you cock just erect enough that it looks large without looking erect: you'll get the once over from the female population on the beach. +Try dressing for the occasion. One of the thing my wife has done many times is wearing a sheer beach blouse with only a bikini bottom underneath, and unbuttoning the blouse while walking in or out and letting her tits hang free. We'd nearly always walk past someone with her in this state, and she'd get a real rush from it. Once she walked back from a beach topless, and we passed an army detail. What a hoot! +If you're driving, you can extend all that to the car, but I won't get into that detail, because that would require another guide in itself. +Close up the distance between you and the other couples. This works where you're not the only ones playing games, and a fair few people are nude as well. Get as close as you dare. Fucking mightn't work, but pussy fingering can be done fairly discreetly at quite close range. +You'll even find some beaches with people who like to watch. If this makes you uncomfortable or at risk, then don't. We've done it, kept it reasonably discreet -- we couldn't see them but knew they were there. My wife was so turned on she brought herself off five times. It's the most obscene thing she's ever done. The combination of fear and excitement is intoxicating. +You can of course do more. We've never done them, but a threesome or foursome on the beach would be just amazing, and could be done safely using Step 3 above. +Whatever you do, make sure you have fun. Respect each other's limits, do it in stages if you want, but above all enjoy! +Some words of warning +As this is a ""how to"" guide, I need to add a few words of warning. +First, remember that what we're talking about here is illegal in most if not all countries. So if you don't know the area you're in, do some research first. You'll find that some CO beaches are patrolled by police from time to time, so stay away from those. If you are close enough that others can see what you're doing, think about whether you are likely to offend first. +Secondly, some beaches are known for this sort of activity and attract voyeurs as a result. Voyeurs are often harmless, but you may not feel comfortable in that environment. There are also spots frequented by people who are much more aggressive. Harassment is absolutely the last thing you want. Again, some local research will help you avoid those places. +Finally, respect the rights of others and avoid offence. Stay away from family beaches and don't get too close to others unless you are really sure of your ground." +391,How to Have Great Sex Over 50,BatsandGlamour,How To,2016-04-05,2016-04-05,2022-01-04 08:31:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-great-sex-over-50,No need to slow down now--time to dispel the myths.,"['Active Sex', 'Adult Sex', 'Fulfilling Sex', 'Great Sex', 'Mature Sex', 'Sex Over 50', 'Sexual Fantasies', 'Wild Sex']",4.51,"**5 myths about great sex for men over 50** + _P.S.-show this to your husband or lover_ +We're all (hopefully) going to get there.

So as it approached I was understandably apprehensive. And what happened was...nothing. Still lifted, still ran; still partied as much as I wanted to. And I was smarter; had more money and a nicer car. Life was good. + **Fast forward 9 years...** +Forty approaching faster than I could have imagined. So busy with work, kids, house and life that the years went by in a blur. But there were differences. Some premature gray. Hairline heading south a bit. I still felt the same, though.

Is my cock going to fall off soon? This is unchartered water. Am I old now? Is my sex drive gone? Do I even need my dick anymore?

You should get checkups, etc. to keep small problems from becoming big ones. But the things you read about sex are largely unsubstantiated bullshit. Myths that can affect your confidence. +I'm going to give your confidence back with a healthy dose of the truth (see what I did there?). + **The 5 most disturbing myths...and the truth** (as I see it) + **1\. After 50 you just can't perform sex as well.** +This is the most destructive myth there is and patently untrue. +We used to measure our sexual prowess by how many times we could cum in a night. ""We did it five times last night!"" you beamed at 19 years old, thinking that number made you a super stud to be desired by every woman, if they only knew. +Think again. +As a young man, a lot of your feelings about sex are tied up in what's important at the time. Your ego, how you look (more on that in a moment), how many times you can cum in a night. How far you can shoot your cum (maybe that was just me). Sex is all about _quantity._ You really didn't know or care how a girl thought or felt. it's a confusing time. I remember. +As you get older, you learn that _feeling_ and _listening_ to what a woman wants put you on path to sexual prowess. That even something as simple as a kiss, when delivered passionately and softy, can make her feel like she's being fucked. +Taking your time, worshiping her body, appreciating every inch of it, is something that simply doesn't occur to a slam-bam younger man (wow—that rhymed!) +This is perhaps the primary reason younger women like older men. Older men are less into themselves and their possessions and much more into the pleasure of being with a good woman (and being good with a woman), and they know how to express it. + _""I ain't as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I ever was.""_ —Toby Keith + **2\.

My normal and someone else's normal are worlds apart. +Would you like a fast and easy way to change ""Same old"" into ""Yes, please!"" +Write down sexual scenarios in which you'd like to be involved. Write them on small pieces of paper and put them in a jar. Here are some thought starters: +• You've been in prison for 2 years without sex and I'm the new prison guard coming to visit you at night. What do you want to do with me? +• I'm a casting director and you want to be a star. What can you do to get that part? +• You've always wanted to try bondage or a little rough sex and I'm new at it. Can you show me how to turn you on? +• I'm just back from military duty and have 2 hours before I have to leave again. How do you want to spend it? +• Will you pick out porn from the internet that turns you on and watch it with me? +Enough about my fantasies. Whether or not these scenarios are appropriate for you is not for me to say. What matters is that you can get creative in your own way. And creativity keeps sex hot. Just so you know, your lover can do the same thing with her fantasies. There should be no winners or losers; no judgments. +As far as trying new things, it's not an age thing. I never thought I'd have a leather-wearing girl tied up and begging me to spank her ass—the same ass I was fucking—while I alternately shoved a vibrator in and out of her eager pussy. You know, a normal Friday night. There are so many new things I learned after 50 that I can't list them all. But they are all good. It just takes the right partner, a little imagination, and a healthy dose of being twisted. Just kidding. Sort of. + **3\. After 50 you lose interest in sex.** +I expected that to happen. I waited for that to happen. I lost sleep over the prospect of that happening. +It never happened. +I think that was passes for losing interest in sex is losing interest with having the exact same sex with your partner, or surrendering the fact that perhaps they've lost interest and so to keep your sanity and your family intact, you've managed to suppress your desires. +That sucks. It doesn't have to be that way. I personally don't believe you can have a good relationship without satisfying intimacy. No, it doesn't have to be four times a week (it doesn't _not_ have to be, either). +If two people are willing to make the effort, their sex life can and should still rock. Maybe not every time, but often enough. This takes communication. This takes alcohol. This takes porn. Whatever it takes, do it. It's not your age, because you know what you'd be like with a new girlfriend (or boyfriend). It's your situation. Two people with strong sex drives should be having good sex to the grave. + **4\. After 50 you turn into a fat old man that nobody is attracted to.** +Only if you let that happen. The best way to stay in shape is not to get out of shape. I must say that most of my friends have let themselves go. Not all of them. My best friend is a second-degree black belt who, at 58, is in terrific shape. I work out six days a week for 30-40 minutes. That's all it takes. Eat clean and exercise. +If you think it doesn't matter, if you think nobody looks anyway so what's the difference, you're wrong. Women, even young women, will always admire a strong, toned physique. They do in my world. The young guys walk with no swagger when they're with me because they know I can work out as hard as they do or harder. What I get a lot is, ""Dude, I hope I'm in the shape you're in when I'm your age."" +It's not the age, it's the effort. Your wife or partner will not mind seeing you in great shape, believe me. +If you want to get into better shape, you can go the all in ""Insanity"" or ""P-90X"" approach and bomb it, or just made steady, gradual changes in what and how much you eat, drink, and exercise. Losing a pound of fat a week equates to 50+ pounds a year and is not that hard. + **5\. Women don't want to be ""dirty"" with a guy my age. The wild days are over.** +You've been hanging out with the wrong women. +Listen, bud, plenty of women want to be just as wild and edgy as you do. It never surprises me when, after a breakup or divorce, a man or women finds a partner with whom sex is the wild adventure they'd always dreamed of. She lives to suck his cock. Not only is her ass not off limits, she loves it when he tongue-fucks it and shoves his cock in. He doesn't just talk during sex, he drives her wild by saying things at the right time in the right way that make her cum harder and harder. Or instead of being nearly silent, she screams his name and claws his back. +If you think you can tell by looking at someone whether or not the sex will be fun, hot, and life-affirming, you're sadly mistaken. The best sex -best intimacy—I've ever had in my life was with someone who looked as prim and proper as I've ever seen. Talk about not judging a book by its cover; she was the best lover _on earth._ +And yet, it's puzzling how it never happened with your previous partner. This, my friends, is called chemistry. And when you find it with someone, you are likely to have the best sex of your life. Trust me. When you find the ying to your yang, the sex and just overall intimacy can be earth shattering. +But what if the person you're with, a person you love and want to stay with, does not have that chemistry with you? +I would be lying if I told you that you could just snap your fingers and make it happen with them. Sometimes there's just someone who does it for you, and they are not the person you're going to spend your life with. This is sad, yes, but there is actually—no, it's true—more to life than sex and may have a wonderful relationship in other ways. +Still, barring illness, there should be nothing preventing open and honest communications about wants, needs and desires that lead to a more satisfying sex life. This starts with a conversation and taking action. And you have to keep it up and work on it; it's not one and done. Keep moving forward until a great sex life becomes the norm. + **Conclusion** +If you want a rocking sex life you can have it—yes YOU—if you're willing to throw away useless misconceptions and get to work. If you take one thing away from this article it should be this: if you are not having the sex life you want and need, it's not your age holding you back. It could be your partner; I hope not. It could also be your approach and your attitude. If I see you with a beaming smile at work tomorrow, I'll know you listened to my advice. I know who you are! I'm wishing you good luck with great sex." +392,How to Have Happy Valentine's Cheap,SuperHeroRalph,How To,2011-02-03,2011-02-03,2022-01-04 08:31:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-happy-valentines-cheap,Celebrating Valentine's Day with your honey on a budget.,"['Chinese Food', 'Chocolates', 'Massage', 'Pizza Delivery', 'Roses', ""Valentine'S Day"", ""Valentine'S Day Card"", 'Vibrator']",4.05,"_This is a Valentine's Day contest story. Please vote._ +* +How to celebrate Happy Valentine's Day with your honey on a tight budget. +With so many people unemployed and underemployed, after just spending what little money we had on Christmas, it's already Valentine's Day. Now what? Just a Hallmark Valentine's Day card is approaching five dollars and many of them aren't even worth the price of the paper. +""Roses are red and violets are blue, today is Valentine's Day and I love you."" +All of them say the same sad, silly sentiments we've all heard a thousand times before. It would be different, more worth the money, if we found the card that we really loved, the card that said exactly what we wanted to say, but couldn't put it in words. +Depending where we buy them, a dozen roses cost thirty dollars and up, twice what they cost, before and after Valentine's Day. +""Excuse me, how much are the roses without the pretty paper, the ribbon, and the extra greens? Yeah, just the flowers. What's that? You don't sell them that way?"" +That box of heart candy is a waste of money for the little amount of candy that they arrange inside the box to make it appear we're getting more. +""Excuse me, but why do you have this giant heart shaped box for only six ounces of candy? Don't you have a smaller box with the same amount of candy for less money? What's that? You don't sell them that way?"" +For what we pay for that velvet heart with ribbons, we could buy pounds of her favorite candy, albeit without the velvet heart box and without the ribbons. +Candy doesn't have to be Godiva chocolates to be appreciated. The candy doesn't have to come in a red satin box to be enjoyed. The absence of the heart box doesn't mean that you love her any less. You can buy her a fancy little box at the dollar store, a bag of those little sugar hearts imprinted with words for a dollar or two, along with a few pieces of her favorite chocolate. Put them in a pretty box and wrap it with ribbon and you've made your own candy box for much less money. +""What the Hell is this? These aren't Godiva chocolates."" +""It's a Valentine candy box that I made myself for you."" +""How come you didn't buy me the red heart shaped box?"" +""It was too expensive."" +""Too expensive? You didn't care about money when you were betting on the Super Bowl, did you?"" +Being unemployed or underemployed and just having eked by Christmas, forget about the bling this year at Valentine's Day. Unless the bling is something plastic from out of a quarter bubble gum machine, chances are that you can't afford to buy any bling for your baby for Valentine's Day. At least, not this Valentine's Day, after spending your last few dollars on Christmas. Maybe next year, when the economy coughs you up a job, but this year is tight and Valentine's Day is just another day that merchants hope to make us feel guilty enough to pick our pockets of the last few dollars that we have and need for food to feed our families and gas to fuel for our cars. +""What the Hell is this?"" +""I couldn't afford to buy you a real gold ring, so I thought this would be symbolic of our love. Happy Valentine's Day, baby. As soon as I get a job and save some money, I'll buy you a real gold ring."" +""What did you get this out of a Cracker Jack box?"" +""Don't be silly. I got out it out of the bubblegum machine."" +We all need to cut back and return to our roots and more treasure the real meaning of Valentine's Day. This one day is all about love and togetherness. It's about romance and making the one special person in our lives feel loved and appreciated. We don't have to spend a lot of money to do that. +By allowing Hallmark to do it for us, too many of us avoid confessing our real innermost feelings. Think about it. Giving her a card, flowers, and candy is the cheap way out and the way that too many of us take to get through Valentine's Day. Instead of buying her a card with a meaningless sentiment, hold her hand, look her in the eyes and just tell her how you feel. +""Roses are red and violets are blue, I love you as much my old dog, Blue."" +""You love me as much as your dog, your old dog?"" +Okay, maybe some of us should opt for the Valentine's Day card. +Nonetheless, my point is still valid. I'm trying to save you some money and still have a happy, albeit cheap Valentine's Day. Rather than giving of ourselves, rather than taking the time to intimately know what our baby wants, instead of buying her a card, flowers, and candy, just giving her you is more important and giving her your time is always more appreciated. +""Are you seriously going to stay home and stare at me all day?"" +""It's Valentine's Day,"" said Roger. ""I thought I'd give you my undivided attention."" +""Don't you have a basketball game to watch? I have things to do,"" said Sheila. +Maybe it's something as simple as turning off the television and fixing that door, she's been nagging you repairing. +""Roger, why is the door upside down?"" +How about doing your own damn laundry or, while you're at it, doing her laundry, too? +""Roger, you washed everything all together in just one load, whites, colors, delicates, your clothes and my clothes, didn't you?"" Sheila held up what was left of her clothes. +When was the last time you cooked her anything? C'mon, be honest. Bringing home Kentucky Fried Chicken or Chinese food doesn't constitute cooking. It's not the same. +""Okay, here he comes. Don't forget, take the pizza with your left hand and give him the money with your right hand."" +Sorry, but ordering up a pizza, while coercing her to flash the pizza delivery guy, when dressed only in a towel that suddenly falls at the most inopportune time doesn't count as cooking either. +Now that you don't have the money to spend on Valentine's Day, reconnect with her, be honest with your feelings, and tell her why you love her. +""Honey, I love you because you're a good sport, have a great sense of humor, have big tits and a nice ass, and are a good cook."" +""Gee thanks, I think."" +""Go ahead. Your turn. Why do you love me?"" +""You used to have a good job and made a lot of money."" +""Wait, so now that I'm unemployed, does that mean--"" +""Connect the dots, Roger."" +""Nah, you're just teasing me. That's just your great sense of humor. Right? Right? Sheila? Hey, where'd you go, baby?"" +This day of love and romance is not about spending money you don't have on things she doesn't want and that you can't afford. Just because something isn't expensive doesn't mean that it's cheap. Just because you make something doesn't mean that it wasn't made with love and loving regard for the person. +There are some easy, commonsense things that we all can do to save money at Valentine's Day and still show that even though we may not be able afford to be generous with our money or lack thereof, we can still be generous with our heart, our emotions, our sharing, and our time. First, save yourself the hassle and the expended fossil fuel energy of driving to the mall. Forget about going to the mall. Repeat. Stay away from the mall. Stay home. Get it? No mall. +With all their cute kiosk carts and store displays tempting you to spend your money, I guarantee you'll leave there spending part of your rent money. Start by making your own Valentine's Day card. There's five dollars savings, right there. You're welcome. I just saved you five dollars and the three dollars you would have spent on a gallon of gas going to and returning from the mall. Now we're already up to eight dollars that you wouldn't have in your pocket. +Not artistic? Duh? Do you have a computer and a color printer? Don't have a color printer? Magic markers or crayons will do. +There are millions of graphics on the Internet that you can download for free. Instead of watching a hockey game and drinking a six pack of beer, spend a little time on the computer to find an image that's meaningful to her, maybe something romantic, a photo of a park bench, where you had your first kiss or (ahem) your first blowjob. See? I just sparked your enthusiasm, inspired your creativity, and heightened your libido by writing the word, blowjob, didn't I? +Instead of downloading from cyberspace, have the kids make Mommy and/or Daddy a Valentine's Day card. They'll love to do that fun activity with Daddy or with Mommy. If you're a single Mom on a tight budget, enlist your child to make your boyfriend, girlfriend, or significant other a card, along with your help or input, of course. Moreover, anyone blessed with receiving a handmade, homemade Valentine's Day card can't help but feel the loving effort that went into creating the card and will more appreciate a homemade card than a store bought one. +""What the Hell is this?"" +""It's your Valentine card. I made it myself."" +""Are you kidding me? Are you so frigging cheap that you couldn't even buy me a card. You weren't so cheap last week, when you were stuffing all those dollar bills in the stripper's g-string."" +Not a good writer? Can't think of a sentiment or a poem to write? Google something that is appropriate. Lord Byron or Shakespeare won't care if you use their sentiment to romance your baby. Nonetheless, because you found it and copied it, makes it so much more personal because you took the time to find that perfect sentiment that even Hallmark didn't have. +So long as you put the words in quotes and credit the writer, it's acceptable to use someone else's words for your personal purpose. It's the meaning that counts and not the writing ability or lack thereof. Besides, when buying a Valentine's card in the store, you're using another writer's words anyway. +Now about the dozen of roses? Where is it written that you must give roses? There are other bouquets that are equally as beautiful and some fresh flowers last longer than roses. Then, again, what's wrong with making your own roses or a facsimile. With a bit of creativity, you can make your own bouquet of flowers out of construction paper, even newspaper ala decoupage, and crayons or colored markers. +""What the Hell is this?"" +""Roses. I made them out of newspaper."" +""I should have listened to my mother. She told me not to marry you."" +Moreover, it doesn't even have to be flowers. It could be her favorite thing, a dozen mixed donuts, my personal favorite, is a great gift for her. Perhaps, a twelve pack of beer for him. Creativity is what matters more, along with the fact that you made it so much more personal by making it for her or for him or buying something that they'd really want and enjoy, instead of buying what you think is expected. +""Wait, let me get this straight. Instead of buying me a dozen roses, you bought yourself a twelve pack of beer? I don't follow the logic of that."" +When the price of flowers are doubled during Valentine's anyway, just because they make the same bouquet of roses that cost half as much last week, by adding a few greens, a ribbon, and pretty paper, don't buy flowers. Instead of wasting money on flowers at a time when you just cannot afford that in your budget, give her something that outlast the flowers. Give her something she'll cherish. C'mon, think. You know this woman. You've dated her, romanced her, married her, maybe, even had children with her. You intimately know her well enough to know what her twelve favorite things are. Give her that, instead of flowers. +For sure, her twelve favorite things don't have to be expensive. Seriously, they could be a dozen colored eggs decorated more appropriately for Valentine's Day, instead of for Easter. Now, that's creatively different and that's something that you can get the kids involved in doing, too. Just hard boil them first. +""Roger, where are all my eggs?"" +How about a foot massage with a pedicure? Yeah, sure, you've never given a pedicure, but it's the thought that counts. +""911, what's your emergency?"" +""My wife's toes won't stop bleeding. She can't walk. I need an ambulance."" +Trust me, just the fact that you're massaging her feet, before giving her a foot bath will make you her hero. Along with the foot massage, you could give her a regular massage. +Maybe you could gas up and wash her car. +""Let me get this straight. You thought you were doing something nice for me for Valentine's Day by putting regular gas in my diesel Volkswagen?"" +Make her breakfast or lunch or dinner. +""What the Hell is this?"" +""I made you eggs for Valentine's Day."" +""There's colored shells in them."" +""Yeah, well, we didn't have any eggs and I used some of eggs that I decorated."" +There are a lot of things that you can do for Valentine's Day to show your honey that you love her and that doesn't cost any money. You could vacuum the house. You could run her errands, do the food shopping, shuttle the kids to school and back, and take them to all their activities for a week. +""Roger, where are the kids?"" +""I drove them to school for you."" +""It's a snow day,"" said Sheila. ""They don't have school today."" +""I'll be right back,"" said Roger. +There are a hundred things that you could do for her to make her remember that day as special. No, sorry, but having sex with her mother and/or her sister is not one of the things that she'd want you to do. That's your fantasy, not hers. +Speaking of fantasies, you could give her fantasy, sexual or otherwise. Fantasies don't have to cost a lot of money, especially when the fantasy is a sexual one that begins with sensual arousal and ends with a sexual orgasm, not yours, but hers. +""What the Hell is this?"" +""It's a vibrator. Your sexual fantasy. I heard you say my vibrator in your sleep."" +""A vibrator? A vibrator isn't my sexual fantasy."" +""What's your sexual fantasy, then?"" +""Vick is, Michael Vick, is my sexual fantasy, Mike Vick, my hero."" +""Sorry, Mike Vick, my hero, sounded like my vibrator in your sleep."" +Something as simple as reading to her in bed, may be appreciated, after you've drawn her a bath, given her a massage, and made her a drink. Sometimes the best times are when you don't have any money. Sometimes, with all the material possessions out of the way, you can finally see through the cloud of junk that interferes with your relationship. Some of the best times can happen when you don't have any money and can't afford to go out but, instead stay home and watch a movie or play a game. +""Roger, you cheated. I saw you looking in the Scrabble bag to pick your tiles."" +My most memorable times are those raw moments without money interfering and coloring how I feel about my baby. +""Oh, I gotta go. There's my honey coming up the walk. Oh, how nice, he bought me roses and a Valentine's heart with chocolates. Just let me get my binoculars to see what he's carrying in his hand. It's a blue box! He bought me something from Tiffany's for Valentine's Day.

Now, now, this is not going to be a lecture on condoms or abstinence (heaven forbid), we are looking beyond the microbial dangers we face in our sexual escapades. I believe, with our freeways becoming more and more crowded, we need to keep driving safety at the top of our priorities. +Sure most of us have taken driver's ed. or some other safe driving courses, but in this brief article, I thought I needed to cover something that I doubt you covered in driver's ed., and that is How to safely have sex while driving. Scoff if you must, but if you have some terrible accident while driving under the influence of your libido, don't come whining to me. +Now you all remember those days in high school, after your 18th birthdays of course, when your date suddenly looked at you and said, ""I can't start the car,"" or ""I think we're out of gas."" Gosh what are you to do then but quickly begin making out and unbuttoning blouses. Ah what fun, but now, that stuff get's to be old after a while and you need something more. Well, how about one of those hot, sweaty sessions in a car doing fifty, sixty or seventy miles an hour. +Okay, you see the possibilities now... +First of all, turn off your cell phones. There will be no calling or even worse, there will be no texting while sexing as you drive. What you are about to undertake will take all of your concentration, besides, it's rude to be texting while having sex. +Okay, now with the cell phones safely shut down and put away there are a few other things to keep in mind. While a parked car offers you a lot of things you can grab for leverage or just the right place to squeeze as you are coming, the moving vehicle tends to react oddly when say a steering wheel is swung to the side as someone spreads their legs, or the gear shift can do some awful things to your car if suddenly pulled as someone adjusts their position. +And hey, that car in your side view mirror will really be closer than they appear in the mirror... closer to get a better look at the action going on in your car. So, rule one, make sure whatever appendage you go to grab while in the throes of passion, make sure it is either attached to you, your partner, or a non-essential part of your vehicle. +Now, I don't care how good your wife or girlfriend's gag reflex may be under control, if she doesn't also have excellent control over her bite response, I'd be careful about what goes in her mouth as you are driving. I mean, you know how glancing lightly off a car, or guard rail or some one's house is kind of normal for you, well, it can be an excruciating thing to lightly broadside a car and have your partner suddenly bite hard in response to the accident. Yes, regardless of how good your car insurance is, it is damn difficult to reattach an errant cock. +We already lightly touched on another danger... the spectator. Yes, if we are to remain safe we must keep the spectator in mind. Yeah, it's okay letting all the passengers on that bus examine your prowess at eating pussy as your wife shifts gears, but when you reach the driver of the bus, you need to show some discretion. Cover yourself up so not to distract that driver. You should probably do this when passing police officers, school buses and funeral processions. +As for positions, you are basically only limited by the model of car you have and the design of the interior. I can imagine doggy style from the back seat of a convertible while the car is on cruise control and your wife leans over the headrest of the front seat as she drives can be thrilling, there's also the more sedate thrill of a hand job while cruising over the Golden Gate Bridge. +I do recommend you make sure your doors are locked when you get in heavy traffic. Well that is unless you want a few others slipping into your car as you slowly creep along the highway. Who knows, a few alternative passengers or hitchhikers make help you pass the time caught in the gridlock. +So there you have it, some tips on having a safe trip. If you follow the above advice you can enjoy numerous climaxes without the anticlimax of an accident or ticket. So please drive and fuck safely, especially if you are doing it at the same time." +394,How to Have Sex in Public Places,RomanCEisdead2,How To,2008-11-19,2008-11-19,2022-01-04 08:32:00,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-sex-in-public-places,The musings of an author.,"['Exhibitionism', 'Public']",4.27,"I've never written a ""How to"" before and didn't really set out to do so. It was just a collection of thoughts while trying to come up with a plot for a story. I put those musings together and came up with this: + ********* +OK, if you expected a handbook, you're not going to get it. Ultimately, it's up to you to come up with your own ideas. I'm not saying that any of the following scenarios have happened to me, but they are most definitely possibilities for having a little fun. +For the purposes of this discussion, let us assume that the Sex in the title means sexual gratification between two people (e.g. one or both of you have an orgasm). +I suppose that some don't really care if they are caught ""in flagrante"", but to the majority of us this could have dire consequences. However, in order for such acts to take place, there must by their nature be a certain element of risk. It's this risk that makes such an experience so deliciously erotic. Not just at the time, but upon recollection when looking back. +Having a little alcohol in your system will always help to break down inhibitions, but too much is likely to make you take wild risks -- and then us men may have problems fulfilling our (or our partners) expectations anyway. +We can probably break down the acts into the following categories; masturbation, fellatio and intercourse. +OK, hands up all those people who have achieved all three of these acts, in a public place - but not necessarily at the same time? Wow! That many huh? + ********* + **Masturbation** +Not a particularly difficult objective to achieve, but why not try and find a way to make it even more exciting? As a suggestion, you could try doing it during a train journey. +You probably need to be familiar with the line and its stations. For example, you don't want to find yourselves at the point of no return just as the train arrives at a busy station. For a woman, it's probably not quite as bad as you can just look uncomfortable until the moment passes. But for a man, the idea of your cock shooting off like a loose canon in front of a couple of shocked and outraged grannies, come dribbling out from behind the fingers that are trying to conceal your manhood, is enough to put you off of the idea of risk taking for life. +You may also wish to avoid contemplating your act on a section of line where others may be able to view down into the carriage. In the age of the mobile phone, a police officer could be called and be waiting for you at the next station. +The carriage itself doesn't need to be deserted, although a very busy train may prove more of a challenge (but even then it's not impossible). Imagine this scenario; you board a busy tube train and find yourselves crushed into a corner by the opposite (non-opening doors). A hand nonchalantly dangling down between you can work wonders, especially if you are wearing an unbuttoned overcoat. More extreme movements (such as the pulling down of a zip) can be made when the train lurches. +Wanking can, of course, take place when you are fully clothed. It probably helps to have clothes that are fairly loose and not too thick, although even Jeans should be OK. The only recommendation that I would make to men on this front is to wear dark trousers. Underpants will help to collect your ejaculation, but going commando could cause embarrassing wet patches. +If you are sitting down on a train, as long as nobody can see below your shoulder line, gentle hand and arm movements are not really detectable, so a woman could stroke a man's penis through his trousers. Equally, a man could toy with a woman's clitoris and labia if her clothing is thin enough. +Of course, in warmer conditions, the participants may be wearing skirts or shorts. If the latter are baggy enough, it should be possible to slide a hand up the leg and even negotiate the underpants. Let's be honest; it's much sexier to touch flesh to flesh, isn't it? The great thing is that if you are disturbed you can quickly retrieve your hand within a fraction of a second. You may look flushed and guilty, but can the observer be really sure what they think they just saw? +Skirts are a whole new ball game. Now, I realise that tights are not exactly an obstacle, particularly if you are using the ""still clothed"" methodology, but stockings have got to be a better option. Apart from being incredibly sexy and erotic in their own right, they allow free access all the way up to the crotch. And, naturally, it would be a matter of personal choice if the woman wore panties or not. +I'm not going to suggest specific places where you can get up to mischief, but these are some that I've heard of; a crowded pub (honestly -- and nobody knew), a quiet pub (actually slightly more difficult to achieve as other customers tend to glance around a lot more), all forms of transport (the most dangerous being a motorbike -- not recommended, with or without protection), on walks in the countryside (more difficult in the winter due to the amount of clothing) and finally, while swimming in the sea (why do you think its so salty?). + ********* + **Fellatio** +Well, you probably need to have nerves for this activity (it's taken as read that you'll be feeling incredibly horny and therefore motivated). By its nature, only one of you can be watching out for the possibility of interruption during this act (I'm ignoring the lunatics who would consider indulging in mutual oral sex at the same time -- we'll no doubt read about them in the newspapers). +Locations? Somewhere remote, private… Oh, how boring! You might as well be in the bedroom! No, we can be a little more inventive than that. Walk along any street at night and you will see little alcoves and darkened corners, but naturally you will want to avoid areas that are frequented by criminal elements or down and outs. All you need is somewhere that is usually pretty busy during the day but that few people will walk past at night and are where passers by would be unlikely to look in your direction. If you are in the shadows they shouldn't see you anyway. And even if they did, most people would turn away, unsure of what they were witnessing. +Once again, a skirt with either stockings or bare legs and no panties is the ideal wear for such an event for a woman. If you've planned it, or hope for it, a quick visit to the Ladies before setting out to find the perfect place will give you an opportunity to prepare. If he needs encouragement, just breath into his ear that your pussy needs attention and you can't wait until you get home to feel his tongue. When you then tell him you aren't wearing any panties, he'll soon find somewhere. Equally, if the woman wants to give her man satisfaction, she can whisper that she wants to taste his cock, now. Tell him you can't wait any longer and simply have to have him in your mouth. +Men, if you want to perform cunnilingus on a woman, you've got to know how to persuade her. If you can get your lady really turned on, maybe she will agree to whatever you want? Play with her and talk to her. Tell her how she makes you feel. Tell her how sexy she is. Kiss her passionately and then tell her that you want to taste her, to tongue her clit. Beg her to let you do it. Tell her that you think you'll explode if you can't. +If you want a blowjob - and it's merely a case of persuading your partner where you want her to do it -- you have to work on your lady. Prove to her first that her pleasure is the most important thing to you. When she knows that, perhaps she will take pity on your sad, strangled and frustrated look and agree. +I would suggest that it's not advisable for the man to drop his trousers round his ankles. Two reasons; a) a Caucasian male's legs tend to be very pale and will show up against a dark background, b) if you need to make a quick escape, it will prove difficult with your ankles wrapped up in clothing. +Women are built differently to men. Somehow, when you unzip their trousers they don't fall down (something to do with hips). This means that you don't need to pull them down too far. +Garments with elasticated waists would be very practical for any of these activities, but tracksuit bottoms are definitely not acceptable in say, a restaurant. And let's face it; I'm assuming that you and your partner would have been out somewhere nice beforehand. Can I help it if I'm an incurable romantic? +Try and find somewhere dry -- and not too grubby. You don't really want to be seen walking around with dirty, wet knees afterwards (particularly if you had been wearing a skirt when you knelt down -- nobody would need three guesses for that one). Squatting down will mean spreading your legs, but will avoid such problems. Besides, while you're giving head you can be having a little fun with yourself. Can't you picture it? Your hand wrapped around a lovely hard dick, whose heat is almost burning you as you stroke it and enclose the end with your mouth. Meanwhile, your other hand has pulled the gusset of your panties to one side, allowing you to tease and stroke. How wet will you get before he finally explodes? +Another issue (excuse the pun) that needs to be considered; Not all women like to swallow, some do not even like men to ejaculate into their mouth. The first can be dealt with by the obvious means of spitting, the latter takes a little more thought. For instance, assuming that you are gentleman enough to warn your lady, she may wish to finish you by hand. The trouble is, in the dark she may not be able to see you spraying and therefore your come may end up just about anywhere. You may only discover its location when you get back out into streetlight. Milky white fluid dripping down the side of a woman's leg will get noticed. Ladies, in this situation, stand side-on to you partner. You can continue wanking him while ensuring that it's pointing in a safe direction. And there's nothing to stop you grinding against his hip at the same time. +A safer location would be in say, a car, in a deserted lay-by. The biggest danger here is not from other cars but from larger vehicles (such as trucks). Car occupants would probably not be able to see across into your vehicle, but HGV drivers would definitely be able to see down into it. Don't even contemplate having the top down (on the car that is -- on the woman it's optional). Oh, and if you do get caught, don't try an excuse such as a well- known British actress did, when she suggested that her partner had bad stomach pains and she had unfastened his trousers in order to massage his belly! If you are honest with the police and tell them that you couldn't wait to get home, they will tend to just give you a warning and send you on your way. + ********* + **Intercourse** +Best advice here is to suggest that you make sure that you have both ""warmed up"" well beforehand, perhaps using ideas from the previous two sections? That way when it comes to the ultimate act, you can both achieve satisfaction more quickly and therefore reduce the risk of discovery. +On the other hand… if you're into ""dogging"" then being discovered is all part of the thrill and you can take as long as you like. Let's assume, however, that you prefer your (relative) privacy. +The primary requirement is seclusion. Not necessarily somewhere wild and lonely -- although that should be pretty nice. What about a picnic table in wood? Or, if you're fit enough, up against one of the trees. Ladies, imagine how it would feel to be pressed up against the rough bark, your skirt up around your waist and your panties hanging off of one leg. Can't you just feel those firm buttocks in your hands, your fingernails digging hard into the flesh? And men can you imagine how wet your partner's pussy would be as you plunge into her? +Places that I have heard of being used include a telephone box (incoming calls only -- it was an old-fashioned red one, the woman had one foot propped up on one of the window frames), a collapsible workman's tent (that had been left over a telephone manhole overnight -- holding on to the sides wasn't an option, this required a kind of leapfrog stance), a JCB digger cab (watch out for the levers -- they can be a hindrance), a bus (She sits on his lap and let's the suspension do the work) , a train (similar), an aeroplane (it doesn't have to be in the toilet -- some of the cabin crew can get really horny), a ghost train ride, a pub toilet (both men's and women's), a bus shelter (after the last one has gone), a library (now there's a tale, but I'm keeping quiet about it) and even a tree! +But, do you know what? The best place is the next one you accidentally find to have sex, without prior planning. Spontaneity is everything. +I would always recommend safe sex, but this sets you up with another problem if you need to dispose of used condoms. Please, please don't just drop them where you are. Think about other people who might want to use the place. If you are well prepared you will have some tissues in your pocket. Wrap it (or them) up and drop it in a bin later. + ********* + **Rules** +What rules? You can make them up for yourself, but these are a few suggestions: + 1. Don't get caught. 2. Be prepared, but be spontaneous. 3. Enjoy yourself. 4. Never go back to the same place again (just in case)." +395,How To Have Sex...Ch. 1,Bolsh,How To,2000-10-11,2000-10-11,2022-01-04 08:32:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-have-sex-ch-1,"A ""how-to"" for bi-curious men.","['Bottom Shaft', 'Crack Slowly', 'Cum Make', 'Girl Matter', 'Hand Slowly', 'Lick Bottom', 'Lick Head', 'Man Hand', 'Slowly', 'Swallow Cum']",4.27,"**How To Have Sex, All Styles Ch. 1: Man-Man** +Gay people are often scolded and treated like pieces of crap. However, sexual orientation doesn't matter once it comes down hot, sweaty sex. If you're a girl and you want to pleasure another girl, then it shouldn't matter if they are a girl or not -- All that should matter is bringing pleasure to both people, or, in some cases, all people. +For a guy to screw another guy properly, you can't just dive in and hope for the best. There are several techniques which you must master before you can fully give pleasure to another man. +First of all, hand techniques. Most of you men out there have probably mastered the art of jerking off. Giving another man a ""Hand Job,"" as it's called often, is almost identical. However, there are several differences that you should note. First off, you need to not just grab and yank away -- That's not a huge turn on, trust me. If you really want to pleasure your partner, you should take a more calm, relaxed, and ""I want you to cum"" approach. Instead of just grabbing and jerkin', instead slowly run your fingers over the head of his cock. Slowly make a fist around it, not squeezing too tightly, but tighten and UN-tighten your grip in varying speeds and ways. +As he starts to get into it, he might ""fuck"" your hand. Let him. Either way, start to run your hand VERY SLOWLY to the bottom of his shaft, then back up again. Slowly increase your pace, and at this time, start handling his balls. He should be fully erect by this time. Now comes the real ""warm up."" Continue feeling his sac, but take your other hand away. Lean over, or kneel if you prefer, and lick the head of his cock a few times, just to prepare him. Then, lick the bottom of his shaft, running your tongue all the way to his balls. Once there, stop feeling his balls and take one in your mouth and suck. You can moan a little if you want to give effect. Suck his ball slowly, then switch sides. After a little bit of that, re-lick your way up to the head of his cock. +Here is where preference takes over -- If you and your partner are into anal, then apply a little lube to your hand and SLOWLY finger and work your way into his ass. If not, you can simply skip this part. While fingering, make sure to start slowly. If he seems to be loosening up, slip another finger in there. +During this time, you should wrap your mouth fully around the head. The head, tip, whatever of his cock is the spot where you should focus your attention. Plan ahead -- Do you want to swallow his cum, make him pull out, or cum on you? While the choice IS yours, you should make sure he knows what you want. If you want him to cum in your mouth, I recommend taking his cock, licking the head, then stuffing it as far down as you can get it without gagging. Rub the head along the top of your mouth or your throat, depending on how far back you get it. Lick the BOTTOM of his shaft, since this is usually more sensitive. Continue to rub it in the back of your throat until he shoots his load -- Be prepared and use his cum right. Make sure to swallow it slowly, so you don't gag. +If instead you choose not to swallow but to have him cum on your face, or if you want him to pull out, then follow this routine (My recommendation). Slowly take the head in your mouth, and use your hands. Tickle his penis with your fingers, running your hands all along. For about a minute, suck the head and part of the cock where his head and shaft meet. After that, slowly lick the bottom of his shaft down to his balls and passed until you get to the skin between his asshole and sac. Lick up and down from here to the head for a short while, and he's bound to cum. If that doesn't work, try sucking the side of the head for a while while either jerking or fingering him. +After a short rest, or not if you're especially horny, you both should get hard again. Now comes the real test. Go to the bathroom -- Both of you. Take a REALLY hard shit. If you want, a joint shower would be a way to be absolutely sure to be clean. Second, decide whether to be TOP or BOTTOM -- Do you want to take it in the ass, or do you want to give it? If you choose to take it, you're a bottom. Make sure he applies enough lube to your hole and his dick (or condom if you prefer) to prevent too much pain. A little is expected. As he slowly enters, tighten your crack a little. As he goes all the way in slowly, stay still. Then, as his movements become more rapid and he goes in and out, move with him. As he is slowly thrusting in, move toward him. As he pulls out, go away from him. Keep your movements aligned. If you want, noises can be a nice added effect. Whatever you do, don't just lie there, like a dead animal. +If you choose to be a TOP -- you're the man with the tool in the hole -- then things change. A condom is a good idea to prevent anything ugly (Whether something in his ass or him ... relieving himself), and lube is a must. Apply some to his ass crack, slowly fingering him to loosen him up. Apply some to either the cock or the condom. Either lay him on the bed face down, bend him over, or lay him face up with his legs spread high and his head (Face head, not dick head :-)) between his legs, and prepare to enter. Don't rush in as you would for a girl -- Go slowly. His ass, if he's a virgin, will be tight, despite everything you may think or have heard. Slowly go in if it's his first time or if he's a veteran -- Either way, don't rush. Push your head a little way in, then pull out a little but not leaving his ass. +Go back for another thrust, pushing a little further. Read his judgments -- If he's in pain, slow down or back out for a second. If he's loving it, go a little faster. Making sure to understand your partner is a must. Fuck his ass for as long as you can -- If he cum's first, keep going. If you finish before him, then jerk him off, give a bj, or let him fuck you. The choice is up to you. +There are other techniques which I personally am not into -- Such as rimming -- But you can feel free to try them. I hope this guide helped you, and I'll be writing three more -- Girl/Girl (Learned this from watching), Girl/Guy (Learned this from doing), and group (also from doing.) If you wonder how I learned all this YES, I do have sexual relations with men. I'm not gay -- I am semi-bi. +Just as a side note, you may find yourself wanting to experiment with another guy. This doesn't mean you're a full-fledged gay man. You could be SLIGHTLY bi -- I personally couldn't see myself with another guy for anything else then sex. Don't worry if that's what you feel like -- It's perfectly normal. However, my suggestion is to act on those urges and find someone to experiment with. But make sure they know that you don't want a relationship.

It's hard, sometimes, to know what to do in situations like this, when someone you care about is in a lot of pain. I was angry and confused, and I couldn't even begin to imagine what she was feeling. She cried, I cried, and I did the best I could at the time, with what I knew. +As a therapist, now I know what to do and say—as a friend, though, those actions and words don't come quite as easily. Once it becomes personal, the situation seems much harder to respond to in a way that would be most helpful for the victim of the assault—but the statistics show that many of us will have to deal with it, one way or another, because one out of three women over the age of 14 will be raped in her lifetime. + **Believe** +The biggest fear sexual assault victims have is not being believed. It doesn't matter if a shadow of doubt crosses your mind— **don't express disbelief.** You will break a trust that may not be repairable if you do. If your friend is confused, or doesn't remember the details of the assault, just know that this is a normal trauma response, and doesn't necessarily mean that she isn't telling the truth. The FBI estimates that less than 2% of rape reports are false. This is less than for any other felony. + **No Blame** +I know my friend kept saying, ""I know it's my fault,"" over and over, which completely befuddled me. A sexual assault victim will often believe it's their fault, and even if they don't voice it as a concern, it's good to be proactive and tell them that a sexual assault is **never the victim's fault.** Asking questions like, ""Why did you go with him?"" or ""Why didn't you scream?"" are questions you just shouldn't ask. Whatever errors in judgment she tells you she may have made, it doesn't matter—no one ever asks for or deserves to be assaulted. + **Listen** +Whatever you are feeling (angry, disturbed, nervous, scared, awkward, they're all normal), you need to listen to your friend. Try to just reflect back what your friend says to you (this is called reflective listening.) If she says, ""I'm so scared,"" you can say, ""Yeah, I hear you're scared."" Reflecting her thoughts and feelings back to her is the most effective form of listening, and makes her really feel heard. If she gets quiet and can't talk about it anymore, that's ok—don't press her. Respect her silence as much as her words. + **Empower** +You aren't there to make decisions for your friend. Even if you believe she should go immediately to the police and report it, that isn't up to you. When someone is sexually assaulted, they feel as if they have lost all sense of control. In order to help her regain her sense of control, you need to support whatever decisions she makes—and let them make them for herself. + **Normalize** +Whatever your friend is feeling is _normal_ , and she needs to be told that. Victims of sexual assault often have post-traumatic stress disorder-like symptoms: mood swings, changes in eating habits and sleeping patterns, distrust and fear of everyone. My friend was afraid she was going crazy! It can be a relief for a sexual assault victim to know that these are normal. + **Confidentiality** +Please respect your friend's privacy. She trusted you enough to tell you—don't blow it now by going to her family or a friend and telling them about the assault. You are probably going to have strong feelings yourself, but it's best to talk about it with a therapist or counselor. You can even call a rape/sexual assault hotline yourself—they are specially trained in helping with the issue. + **Support** +You may be angry when your friend tells you about the assault (I know I was!) You may even feel like seeking revenge against the attacker, especially if you know them. All of these feelings are normal—but your friend needs you to be the calm, rational, and reasonable port in a storm right now. If you step into the middle of things by running off to confront the attacker, you have not only left your friend alone in her time of need, you may also be causing serious legal difficulties if your friend decides to report the crime. Remember to reflect your friend's feelings, and not to project your feelings on to her. Even if you are angry, don't make threats against the attacker. Let her express _her_ feelings—you can express yours later, to someone who can help you process them. + **Resources** +If you don't know what the sexual assault and rape resources are in your community, all you have to do is call information and ask for a rape crisis line. They are free and confidential and available 24 hours a day, and they will point you in the right direction. Encourage your friend to seek help for herself, but remember not to make the decision for her. You can also suggest counseling for your friend, and encourage her to seek it out. Rape hotlines should also have a list of therapists who specialize in sexual assault. If the sexual assault has happened within 72 hours, you can encourage your friend to go to the hospital to have a rape exam. You can also encourage her to call the police to report the incident. If she decides to do so, you can accompany her. + **What She Needs Most** +What a sexual assault victim needs most is patience and time. The journey from the pain of her assault toward healing takes a great deal of time, and involves letting go of so many fears. Don't give up on her, and accept her unique way of dealing with the trauma. Try not to give her time limits or put your expectations on her. She is her own person, and she will come to the healing she needs to, in her own time. Give her the space to do that, but always remind her that you're there for you. That's the best you can do to be a good friend. +\-------------------- + **Bibliography** +Lindquist, Scott. The Date Rape Prevention Book: The Essential Guide for Girls and Women.

It provides security and companionship. It lets you be with some one you can trust implicitly and confide to. If all goes according to plan, it will last us the rest of our lives. +I have been married for 17 wonderful years and am head over heals with my husband to this day. He is my best friend and I would move heaven and earth for him. Our relationship however has not been without its ups and downs. Most of these issues revolved around sex. We started off in a very vanilla sexual relationship. We certainly did very little out of the ordinary and for us, spicing things up would mean we did it in another room in the house rather than the bedroom. +You may have heard of the 7 year itch and in the case of our relationship, it couldn't have been more apt. About 3 years in to our marriage (7 years in to our relationship), there was a very sudden and dramatic shift with respect to sex. It became clear that we, and probably more importantly he, needed a little more when it came to our time in the bedroom. He began asking more and more risqué questions and requests of me. The one that truly stands out was the desire for a golden shower which also intrigued me and so we performed it and made it a part of our sexual relationship. To me this was about as out there as I could possibly have imagined although I did enjoy this naughty aspect of our sex lives. I kept thinking, ""what if my friends knew what we were up to?"" Guilt crept in and I became more and more reluctant to perform these sorts of acts whilst my husbands desire started to grow for them. +As my interest and guilt kicked in, my husband started demanding more. He started to bring up the idea of humiliation. This was the straw that broke the camels back for me. I broke down in tears and took this as an ultimate rejection of myself. He didn't love me anymore! He wanted to engage in strange and ludicrous acts that would have made even Hugh Hefner shiver in disgust. He might be mentally ill! No one in their right mind could have possibly sought to do the things that he wanted me to do to him. I convinced him that we needed therapy if we wanted to move forward with our sexual relationship to which he reluctantly agreed. +I finally felt relief! The therapist would cure my man of his depravity and hopefully, we would be able to leave the whole sordid mess behind us and pretend it never happened. I was the one in for the shock however when we sat down with the therapist. +""There's nothing abnormal about that,"" replied the therapist when I had finished my tirade against my husband. Had she not heard me? Perhaps she didn't understand the sort of sordid requests he was asking from me. ""It's actually perfectly normal,"" continued the therapist. ""Every couple at your point of the relationship will have something out of the box that they will be doing. It's the seven year itch! Sexual relationships need the spark and kick to keep it exciting."" +It was her next line however that will stay with me forever. ""If he wasn't coming at you with some sort of kinky desire at this point in time, he is either extremely conservative or he is getting his satisfaction elsewhere! The question you really need to ask yourself is how you feel about it?"" +And that's when it hit me. My reservations revolved around what I perceived to be normal. I couldn't get the idea out of my head of what my friends would think of me if they knew what we got up to. But as this woman was showing me, the same could probably be said if I knew what they were up to. How did I honestly feel about it all? Did it excite me? Not really but with in the context of what I had heard from the therapist, I also didn't feel repulsed by my husband's requests. Perhaps she was right? If he wanted to change it up, it would be easy for him to go and find someone else to do it with. A change in partner would provide the excitement he was after. But he wasn't doing this, he wanted to do it with me. I started to realise that his request actually didn't bother me that much at all and I was making it into a bigger deal than it should have ever been. +I decided that I would do it. But what was 'it'? He had given me a few ideas but not very much to go by. I was absolutely clueless. Our first night was a disaster. I called him names but felt weird doing it and hardly very convincing. It petered out to nothing and I think we were both a little disappointed by the experience. We put the cue in the rack for a few months after this but I decided I owed it to him to try a bit harder so I took the initiative and started reading a bit about it on the net (not as easy as it is today as it was still a bit primitive back then). I found the contact of a dom from my research and started messaging her for some tips and ideas which has since evolved in to a great friendship. +I was amazed at the different types of humiliation. Firstly, for many Dom's and Sub's, this isn't a one off event but a lifestyle. The Dom/Sub relationship extends to every part of that persons life and isn't restricted to the bedroom. This wasn't for me (though is for my friend) though it was intriguing to me that a couple can live their lives this way in such happiness. +The style that I was looking for was humiliation as an event. It's not part of our everyday lives nor is it even part of our everyday sex lives but is something we do on occasions. At present, it is my Wednesday nights with hubby. Throughout the week we will also have a romantic night for the two of us and a night that is all about my sexual fulfilment (humiliation night is about him). On these other nights, humiliation does not make an appearance. +I also discovered that there are two forms of humiliation. One in which the sub enjoys the experience and one in which he dislikes what he's being asked to do. The end result for both however, is an incredibly sexy experience and I believe it is important to mix a healthy dose of both forms in to the play. Otherwise, the humiliation element will eventually be taken out of the equation if you stick with just likes on hubby's part and instead, you'll just have a collection of kinks. In saying this though, there are still boundaries. There are some things that he will find distasteful and then there are some things he will flat out refuse. Be mindful and respectful of where those limits may be. I find for me that part of the thrill is constantly testing those limits and I am constantly surprised by just how far I can take things. But I have had some demands knocked back and whilst I may playfully punish him for this, I completely respect it and note it down for next time. +I then gave it all another shot and this time, he was not disappointed! I have now been humiliating my husband for 13 years and he can't get enough of it. I have gone from being disgusted to lukewarm on it all to now getting a kick out of making him do what I want and enjoying the testing of his limits. I feel such love from him when performing these acts when in particular, he is just doing it because I have asked. That is part of the structure that gets him off. I don't necessarily get a big sexual rush from being dominant but I do love the pleasure it brings him and have come to enjoy it in many other ways. Ultimately, to see your hubby so satisfied is a thrill in itself and an ultimate compliment to yourself that you were able to do this for him. +So with out further ado, here is a list of some of the many things I have done to my husband over the past 13 years as well as some things that I know some dom friends have tried but I am not game to. I have categorised them for ease of use but I suggest that you mix and match a bit. Also, it is important that you use this list as a dom. It is quite extensive and it should be you calling the shots not him. This is not a list of things that he might like to try but a list of things that YOU can make him do. Be dominant and most of all, have fun with it and really get yourself in to it. When he starts to respond sexually, it should drive you even more to really embrace your role. +WATER PLAY +This was our natural starting place as we had engaged in water play before we had ever contemplated humiliation. Whilst we had engaged in Golden Showers in the bath and the shower, it never went further than really splashing each other with our pee. +The first successful attempt I had at humiliating my husband was through trips to the toilet. We picked a night in which he was to be humiliated and every time I went to the toilet for a pee, I would make him lick me clean after I came out of the bathroom. I secretly cleaned myself the first couple of go's as I thought he would surely baulk at this but he cleaned me up with such enthusiasm that I stopped cleaning myself before going to him and eventually on my last trip, I left myself dripping so that he was undoubtedly licking pee of my vagina. This all resulted in a massive orgasm and it was quite clear that he enjoyed himself. +After a few more times of this, I picked an activity that I was sure he'd reject. I was going to actually pee in his mouth and make him swallow it all. When I suggested this, I almost keeled over in shock when he accepted my request. Even more so, I could tell that not only was he willing to do it but that he was eager to do so. He greedily guzzled it all down and wanted more. +This started a whole string of different activities in this domain all which I have never been knocked back. Here are my memorable ones: +• Piss all over the floor of the bathroom. I then tell him he has to get on all floors in the bathroom and lick every drop up. Whilst doing this, I either ask him to finger himself or I come from behind and either finger his anus hard whilst he is licking the floor or I put a strapon on and fuck him from behind. All the while, I tell him how filthy he is. I might also pee all over the toilet seat and make him lick it off there. +• Piss in to a cup and give it to him to drink whilst I sit at the edge of the bed and watch him. I might ask him to take a tablet with the drink. I might pee in to a cup with ice and a spirit such as rum or vodka. I may ask him to dip food in to the cup and eat it whilst I watch on. I might also piss in to a drink he is already drinking be it a soda, a beer or a glass of wine. All of these he has done without hesitation and with much delight. I may also ask him to play with himself whilst he is doing all of this, particularly by either fingering himself or playing with his own nipples. +• Piss all over food he may be eating. I have given him a bowl of cereal (rice bubbles) that I have subsequently peed on and watched him eat them as they went snap crackle and pop. I have peed over a plate of fries before he has eaten it and told him I am adding vinegar! I have opened bags of candy, peed in to the bag and given it to him to eat. +• Get in the shower and put some shampoo in his dry hair. I then get him on the ground whilst I squat over him and get him to shampoo his hair using my pee. Only after he has had a really good clean and he has cleaned with his tongue any pee that may have splashed on the shower floor or on my legs do I let him turn the shower on. +• Fill him up with water for a change and have him lie on the bed with rubber sheets. He doesn't get anything from me sexually and is not allowed to touch himself until he has peed over himself. I then get him to clean himself up and to suck as much out of the sheets as possible. I might also make him pee in to a cup and drink his own pee which doesn't excite him as much as drinking my own. +• Piss my panties and then hand it to him. He has to squeeze as much pee from them as possible in to his mouth before cleaning any mess that I may have made anywhere else with his tongue. +These are but a few ideas. Think depraved. I personally find it all a bit gross but I do love to come up with my next depraved activity for him to do and watching him follow through. I can always tell that when it comes to water play, he cannot wait to see what I come up for him next. +SCAT +This was a boundary that my hubby would not cross much to my own relief. I asked him to eat my crap but he refused in what was the first time that he turned me down. I expected this although I must say, he has done a lot of things that I also thought would be turned down. +What he will do is lick my ass after I have been to the toilet. He does this only after I have wiped with toilet paper so really it is perfectly clean down there and I actually don't mind it as the one thing he does clean off is the occasional tiny bit of toilet paper that is stuck to my behind. He enjoys rimming me and I find it quite pleasurable. +All in all, scat is not for us but it needed to be included as it might well be perfect for you the reader. +SPITTING +Spitting is a staple of most humiliation sessions. It is usually something that most couples are open to as you are already swapping spit every time you kiss. There is something exciting and degrading about it though and really should form a solid part of your repertoire. +• Spit on your partners penis whilst you tell him how disgusting he is +• Spit on his ass, scoop it up with your hand and shove it in to his mouth +• Ask him to open his mouth wide and amuse yourself by seeing whether you can spit in his mouth from a distance or just hover your face above his and spit in his mouth. +Spitting is a big turn on for him and something that I enjoy very much as well. +FEMININITY +This is a category my husband does not like (except for a few parts) but that he will do when I push him to. You can see the disgust with himself when he is doing some of these but it still really gets him off because he does find it so genuinely humiliating. +• Simply fuck him with a strapon. My hubby does like this part of it though he does not like the pain that comes with it. I respect his wishes here and take my time to work it in but others may wish to cause a bit of pain. +• Get him to suck your strapon. This my hubby does not like but I make him do this a lot now as it is a good safe humiliation tool. I like to get quite in to it as well and thrust a fair bit whilst holding his head there. +• I will make him wear sexy lingerie for me. Again, this still makes him uncomfortable but really does work. Have him lie on the bed and play with himself through the panties. I make him slide the bottom of the panties over while he fingers himself. All the while I refer to his ass as his pussy and ask him to finger it. I will also ask him to put his hands under the bra and play with his tits. I like to also put him in crotchless panties and stockings whilst I bend him over and fuck him with the strapon. He seems to cum buckets when I do this. +• I sometimes put him in a dress and refer to him by a female name whilst I have sex with him. He leaves the dress on whilst I do him from behind. I might then turn him around and make him look in to my eyes whilst I do this too him whilst I keep spitting in his face. This is again by no means something he enjoys but it is utter degredation and he certainly gets off on it in a big way +CUM PLAY +This is something we do with either his frozen cum or some fake cum that we will make up. +If you use real stuff, Just try to use condoms and freeze them. Then let them thaw when you want to use it and use as you see fit. +• An obvious one is to eat a creampie after he has gone in you. I don't care who they are and how enthusiastic they seem, when it comes to the crunch they will almost always baulk at it as they have lost their desire. You have to make them do this! Make them come in you and hold their head against your pussy and demand they eat it up. If they don't, tell them you'll never do any of this again for them and that they'll be sorry later on. Stick to your guns and make sure they know you mean business and they will get down to it. I actually really enjoy this one! Also, you may wish to force him to lick it up off himself after you have forced him to masturbate for you. +• The other creampie option is to fill yourself up with your pre prepared cum. This can either be real or fake. You will have a more willing participant this time around. Use a bit of fantasy here. Tell him you just had sex with his best friend but he didn't use a condom. Tell him that the saliva will help kill off the sperm so he needs to get in a clean you out so that you don't get pregnant! Whilst he cleans you, tell him how much fun you had with his friend (or whoever you may wish to choose) and that you can't wait to do it again. Tell him how good he is at cleaning up! You may wish to splash a bit of cum around other parts of your body such as your face, breast and ass as well as dripping down your thighs. +• Put your strapon on and cover it with real/fake cum. Make him suck it off. Better still, I have a dildo that has an empty chamber in it that can be filled up and can simulate ejaculation. I make hubby suck this and squeeze it to cum in his mouth. It's a little on the large side but I have also pushed it up hiss ass and squeezed it in to there and then watched him have his own creampie. +• I will occasionally go wild with the fake cum. I cover myself from head to toe in it and get him to lick it all off my body. I then get him between my legs to lick it out and then start peeing in to his mouth. +BELITTLING +I find this the hardest to do as I am not at all sincere with what I am saying but with practice, I have become good at it and see it as some quite playful fun. +• I tell him how small his cock is and that it just doesn't satisfy me. I tease that I may need to find someone who can. +• I talk about my ex boyfriends. I tell him how much the thought of being with them again turns me on and how they were so much better in bed than he is. +• I refer to his ass as his pussy and his nipples as his tits or breasts (breasts is actually an accurate term anyway) and demand that he plays with them whilst I watch. I call him a sissy or gay. +PUBLIC ACTIVITIES +This is a bit hit and miss for us but can be a lot of fun. I generally don't want him to actually get caught out so this may not be as extreme as everyone would like. +• Put either a butt plug or a set of ben wah balls in his anus and I go out with him for the night. No one knows that he's doing it but he gets a thrill and I make occasional references to scare and humiliate him such as ""what is that sound"" if I can hear the Ben Wah balls tapping together or ""is there something wrong with the back of your pants"" if he has the butt plug in. +• I make him strip off completely naked and sit on our back lawn late at night whilst I watch him from inside the house from the window. I then instruct him to masturbate for me and to finger himself. I might go outside and pee all over him as well and if its cold out there, I'll quickly come back in whilst I ask him to play with himself some more for my amusement whilst I watch on. Our place is reasonably secluded but there is a small chance that someone might see him. +• Take a trip in the car with no pants. He is not allowed to bring pants at all and wears a towel around his waist to get in to the car. I remove this then drive. I will occasionally go park at the mall and leave him there whilst I go in to do some shopping. I have also asked in these situations that when I get back, I want to see that he has ejaculated over himself. This is the most risqué one we do but I still don't think anyone who has ever passed the car has realised he is missing his pants. +• I have done this only once but I once had my Dom friend come over to watch him. I humiliated him in front of her and made him masturbate and finger himself after I peed in his mouth and on his food. This was our ultimate humiliation performance and was quite well received by hubby but I would never do it with any one outside the sub/dom community. It will be a very occasional activity moving forward. +OTHER PARTNERS +This one is on the extreme side and it's not something I have ever done. We have discussed a bit of swinging but I don't think I could humiliate hubby in the cuckold situation that I'll describe below although my Dom friend has done this to her man. I do like to play on the fantasy side though. +• Actually go out and find a man to have sex with and bring home a creampie for hubby. This is a big fantasy for a lot of people but is not something I could ever do. Not only could I not do that with another man, there are the practicalities of STI's and pregnancy to consider. It is popular in the more extreme Dom scene though and so I have shared it here. +• Bring another man home with you to have sex with. Either do this in front of hubby or go to another room. If you go to another room, set up a baby monitor so hubby can hear it all. Whilst having sex, keep telling the man how good he is and how he's the best you've ever had. Say how you wish your husband could please you like this and make sure you moan and scream as much as you can. Again, not for me but it is definitely hot if you are in to it. +• Fantasise about being with other men with your hubby. This I will do and he seems to respond excitedly to it. Keep calling your hubby someone else's name and refer to hubby as though he wasn't in the room. As above, say things like you wish your husband could satisfy you like this. +So there you have it. That should give you a bunch of ideas to get the ball rolling. As mentioned, I've tried all of the above except for the Scat and some of the other partners points but have done just about everything else. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. Have fun in coming up with dastardly things for your man to do. Don't be limited by how disgusting a particular idea might be. Push the barriers and see how he responds. Get a kick out of being his sexual boss for an evening and having him do whatever you want. If your man likes a little bit of pain, punish him if he doesn't do exactly what you want or doesn't do it as well as you would like. I have a paddle and whip and will use both if he doesn't obey. I also have some clover nipple clamps and will pull them slightly every time something is not done up to scratch. +Remember above all else that this is normal. We may not talk about this sort of stuff with our friends, but trust me, they're doing crazy stuff too. You're not a couple of freaks. There are millions of kinks out there, just check out the internet. What turns one person on will disgust another but be assured that we all have some kink or fetish that we'd be ashamed for anyone to know about it. Stop feeling shame, embrace it and have fun. Here's hoping you'll have many more years of great sex together! +Mistress Anna!" +398,How to Hunt a Werewolf,Sean Renaud,How To,2009-08-20,2009-08-20,2022-01-04 08:32:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-hunt-a-werewolf,A brief training guide for hunting lycanthropes.,['Werewolves'],3.31,"I'm going to start this guide off by saying what I often say when I start explaining to civilians how they should go about hunting various paranormal threats that threaten mankind. I hope you are reading this for entertainment. I hope you don't believe there are really werewolves out there and that right now you are smiling as start reading this work of fiction and humor. My second hope is that if you are one of the believers that you are reading this with a completely open mind. A lot of what you thought you knew is false and if you go into this thinking that I don't know exactly what I'm talking about that you will die. This report will take you through the most important basics of fighting and hunting a werewolf. Identification, location and destruction. +Proper identification is important. Civilians tend to get most of their information from bad movies and don't know anything about werewolves and so there are a lot of misidentifications. The first misidentification is the wolfman. If your werewolf is standing on his hind legs like a man he's not a werewolf. If you are in the east you are most likely looking at a Rakasha, the tell tale sign for a Rakasha is that the thumb is on the wrong side of the hand even in their human form. I don't know how to fight those, I recommend making a deal or running like hell. If you are in the west you are most likely dealing with a Sasquatch. That's actually good news. Sasquatch are easy to kill, anything that kills people kills them just fine. True werewolves turn into actual wolves distinguishable from natural wolves only by their size and coat which is without fail an unnatural shade of silver. +Werewolves are relatively difficult to identify compared to most supernaturals. They have few common aversions like sunlight for vampires. However they are highly allergic to both wolfsbane and mistletoe which will allow you to identify them. In their wolf form the smell of either of these plants is often enough to drive them away and in their human form it will look like a bad case of hay fever, again often driving them from the area. It's good for both identification and to ward you home. +I should tell you that lycanthropes species, not a disease. All the stories you've heard about killing the werewolf you bit you before the next full moon or that kind of thing are cases of mistaken identity. The reason for this is simply that many breeds of vampire have the ability to transform into wolves and civilians often make misidentification. So if someone never changed before you should consult To Slay a Vampire instead of this information here. Vampires will occasionally pretend to be werewolves simply to keep people from searching for the proper culprits and also so any humans who do come hunting them will be armed with the wrong equipment. It is for this reason that you need to be absolutely certain of your identification of the creature prior to launching an assault. +Forget all the things you've ever heard about the full moon. That is a combination of habit, superstition and Hollywood. It is true that the full moon tends to bring out more lycanthropes than other cycles of the moon but that is just because or the urge to howl at the moon, the same thing that draws human beings out in the light of the full moon to observe it's beauty drives many werewolves do enjoy nature more closely on those nights. The point is that if you think you are safe approaching a known vampire because it is one in the afternoon and the moon is on the far side of the planet good luck with that. They can transform at will and those who live far from humans may be more comfortable in their wolf form than in their human form. +The next step is to locate your local werewolf. This can be extremely difficult, particularly in urban environments where actually tracking is difficult. I don't recommend trying to follow them to their lairs for a number of reasons. The biggest is that werewolves, again unlike in the movies, are similar to regular wolves in their behavior. What that means is that they travel in packs. Unless you've got a death wish following a werewolf back to its den is usually suicide. I recommend hunting them as they hunt which is much easier since they do usually separate to hunt. Werewolves, like real wolves are not actually fond of human flesh and in the wild are no more dangerous to humans than average wolves, however because of their ability to become human and spend time with humans they often find themselves in environments where other kinds of prey are rare. They will still seek out isolated prey just like any other predator, alleyways, parks any of the places that your instinct tells you not to go is where they are. I recommend using bait (ex girlfriends tend to work best) but you can go alone if you are confident or suicidal. +Finally we need to talk about how to destroy a werewolf. This is one of the few things that Hollywood didn't completely screw up. Werewolves are allergic to silver. It bonds with their red blood cells and prevents them from regenerating. Silver bullets though are not the way to go unless you are just an incredible shot. This is one time when the older societies had it right. The reason is that unless you've got silver buck shot the bullet goes in and out, it has minimal contact unless you hit them in the heart of the head they'll die but slowly. More than enough time for them to finish tearing your rice paper human flesh to bloody ribbons. What you want is a silver plated spear or sword if you're bold. It inflicts bigger wounds that are more immediately fatal. +I'm going to close this the same way that I opened it. I hope that you got a glimpse at this and that you are laughing and thinking about the movies you've seen and the video games you played and you just think this is funny. If you are not, if you are one of the unfortunate souls who is going to be heading into combat I'm just going to wish you happy hunting." +399,How to I-Phone Your Text with Audio,Zrnko_Pisku,How To,2013-01-01,2013-01-01,2022-01-04 08:32:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-i-phone-your-text-with-audio,How to prepare Text with Audio submissions with an I-Phone,"['Audio Submissions', 'Submission How-To']",4.45,"Over the years in submitting stories to Literotica and competing in their Survivor Contest I have noticed that, except for a few gifted writers, the Text with Audio and Poetry with Audio categories have been avoided. This was especially true in the Survivor Contest where I watched contestants sweat out the weekly lottery in the UK hoping to get the two coveted immunities to fill in the Text with Audio and Poetry with Audio slots on their scorecards. +I guess there are several reasons many of the writers avoid these categories. A writer may feel they don't have the voice for presenting their story, or perhaps they have some inhibitions in performing. It is one thing to write some of the exotic and erotic things we do in these stories, it is entirely another to verbalize it out loud. What might be some spicy hushed dialogue in the bedroom does make for some difficult recitation in the home office. +Unfortunately I will have to let you work out those issues by yourself. I am writing to give you some tips that will hopefully help you solve another difficulty in producing the audio files for your Text or Poetry with Audio submission which is how to record your work in a format that Literotica can use. If you visit the FAQ on Literotica they list the basic step by step procedures to follow in submitting a Text or Poetry with Audio story. Their instructions work nicely (at least for the ""upload your file"" means of submission) but you must first have the file. +Literotica's FAQ indicates that they can handle most any sound format but they prefer WAV, Real Media, Windows Media, or MP3 files. Call me old fashioned but I like to work in WAV files and hey, the sound recorder software on windows had an easy option to save to WAV so that's what I did. Later, when I purchased a voice recorder it also saved to WAV so I just kept using it. Window's current sound recorder, well at least the one in Windows 7 saves to a Windows Media (WMA) format which should be compatible however you must have a microphone hooked up to your computer. +Well, quite frankly, I was too lazy to chase down my microphone and since I wanted to limit the background noise from using the one in my monitor I decided to give my I-phone a try. I mean it has a sound recorder and hey, I used it to sketch some of the drawings I've submitted on my illustrated stories so why not? +I had a couple of short poems I wanted to submit so I quickly read them into the I-Phone and then emailed the recording to myself. Downloading the files I immediately noticed it saved them to a M4A file type. I'm not a Techie so I didn't immediately recognize this as an MP4 file. Either way, I wasn't sure if Literotica could handle MP4 files so I tried to covert it using the software I had on hand which was Windows Sound Recorder, Windows Media Player and I-Tunes. Well, none of those had any obvious means of converting the M4A file. They played it fine but I couldn't find a way to convert it to something I was sure Literotica could handle. +When all else fails I do what everyone else does, I google. Sure enough right at the top of the page I spotted several free downloads and holding my breath I picked one (ConverterLite v1.6.2) and downloaded it. Well in just a few moments Norton flashed a pop-up informing me the download was safe. Now when you go to download this pay attention because the download comes bundled with a lot of toolbars and browser stuff. You can easily decline any or all of these offers and still get what you need. +The install is quick and all you have to do is open the program, select the file you want, select the type of file you want to convert to (WAV in my case) and then simply click on finish. The file can be saved anywhere or you can simply let it default to where your original M4A file was located. Once you have the file converted all you've got to do is go to Literotica's FAQ under multimedia submissions and follow instructions to upload the audio file. You then submit the text portion of the submission as you would any other non- audio story but make sure you do reference the audio file you uploaded in the comment box for your submission. +There you go, with just an I-Phone, some free converter software and Literotica you can easily submit your Text with Audio stories or Poetry with Audio poems." +400,How To Imbibe Alcohol,Joseki Ko,How To,2005-01-02,2005-01-02,2022-01-04 08:32:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-imbibe-alcohol,Ways and means of drinking.,"['Beer', 'Chug Beer', 'Cold Water', 'Deep Breath', 'Emerald Green', 'Lean Back', 'Shot Glass']",3.62,"_~~~ NOTE: Drink Responsibly and never drive after imbibing. ~~~_ +\- Why beer bong? +The art of beer bonging can be tough for some, but if you are in the mood to get drunk off some cheap brew fairly quickly (and want to look mighty cool while you're at it) the beer bong is the way to go. +\- How to beer bong +1\.

There's a good reason for this. +When ice cold water is dripped into good absinthe, or an ice cube added, the emerald green spirit clouds into a milky, minty green.

When you look up a word in the dictionary, you find its denotation. However, the connotation of a word is what we’re really concerned with here. The connotation of a word is all about the nuances and insinuations of a word. For instance, the difference between a _smile_ and a _smirk_ is in the connotation. You move your mouth in approximately the same way for both, but you wouldn’t smirk at your newborn baby. +If you want to write well, grab your readers, make it on the Top Twenty List at Literotica, you can’t skimp on your word choice. Take the time to find just the right word. If you do, you’ll be closer to distinguishing yourself from other amateur writers. + **So, is it a crime to write, ""He walked toward her?""** +No, of course not. But why settle? The English language is like a palette of paints. Use it with care, and you can create images that are vivid and alive. Or stick with the basics, and run the risk of ending up with something bland and uninteresting. Take this sentence, for instance: + _She looked at his big cock._ +There’s nothing wrong with that sentence. But if your entire story consists of third grade vocabulary (not counting the sexual words, like cunt and cock), your writing is going to be flat and boring. Whenever I finish a first draft, I go over the entire thing, looking for words that are, what I call a tad common. In the example I just gave you, the words ""looked"" and ""big"" stand out to me as common. +Depending on the tone of your story, you might want to consider substituting these words for more descriptive choices. + _She glanced at his enormous cock._ + _She stared at his monstrous cock._ +Also, consider substituting descriptive phrases in the place of words: + _She stared hungrily at his cock, which was roughly the size of your average kielbasa._ + _Uninterested, she glanced at his enormous cock and then shrugged, unimpressed._ +Now that’s not to say I don’t ever use the word ""big,"" or ""looked."" It’s all right to intersperse words like those into your writing. Like in all things, balance is the key. Just be careful you don’t go overboard the other way and have an adjective attached to every single noun and an adverb to every verb. +Completely blocking my view from anything else in the large and spacious room, her ponderous tits swayed invitingly in front of my eager face, and slurping and panting like an oversexed teenager, I licked them ravenously, until they were shiny with my hot saliva. +Personally, I think the above sentence is over the top. There is such a thing as going too far, but just how far you go will depend on your own style. + **But I don’t want to sit there for half an hour trying to think of a better word. What do you suggest for those of us whose heads aren’t swimming with synonyms?** +No writer should be without a thesaurus. I use mine far more often than I use my dictionary. Sometimes my brain cooperates and gives me the ""perfect"" word, but sometimes all I know is that the word on the screen is wrong. If I’m feeling lazy, I’ll press *shift F7*, which brings up my computer’s thesaurus. But the choices there are usually limited. The best thesaurus I’ve ever found is ""The Synonym Finder,"" by J.I. Rodale. Because it’s set up alphabetically, it’s easy to use, and it contains over a million synonyms. + **Okay, I got a thesaurus. Now what?** +Start writing, of course. +Oh, and read, read, read. There’s no substitute for reading other people’s work if you want to improve your writing. But don’t just cruise the Incest category and read a random story. Find something that you like. And don’t judge it solely on its turn-on factor either; instead, see if it strikes you as particularly well-written. Then, divorce yourself from the content and analyze it. Find an author whose work you admire and read it.

The DEFs of some kinky and stinky stuff.,[''],4.03,"Well, quite frankly, it's like this, for a wild, sexy, erotic web site Literotica sure has its share of uptight and even prudish people. Wow, carry a story over between several story categories and you'd think you were a mass murderer given the variety of responses you get. Why even a fairly tame fetish like masturbating while listening to women change in a department store changing room is called sick by a reader reading in the fetish category. It's apparent that some of the readers need to see a bit more of the incredibly wide variety of sexual fetishes, perversions and just plain outlandish behavior. +As writers I think we need to explore the various fringes of extreme behavior be it sexual or otherwise. With the exception of several taboos, Literotica is the perfect place for a writer to tiptoe on the fringes of sexuality and safely return. Well, safely return except for the prudish feedback, but to be honest, they can be some of the most fun reading here. What I offer here is some food for thought, if you excuse the cliche'. Some of the odd fetishes and behaviors I describe below can be excellent starting points for stories. As writers all you have to do is abandon all hope and dive deep into the kink. +Consider the statue. Some of the earliest erotica ever created was in the form of statues. Many women (and gay guys) think of David and men (and lesbian women) think of a Venus De Milo and can feel a bit aroused. Ah, take the arousal a step further, strip off your clothes and have sex with the statue and you are practicing **Agalmatohpilia.** In ancient times Clisyphus was said to have placed a piece of meat on a statues crotch and then proceeded to have sex with it. +Later, worshippers of the god Priapus had a statue of the god that featured an erect penis which they would use to penetrate virgins in ceremonies. More recently some men will masturbate against manikins. I can only hope it was after store hours. +Perhaps crossing over the line of acceptable behavior, but fitting at least one category here at lit is **Biastophilia** or when someone gets aroused by sexually assaulting an unwilling victim. Often if the victim submits to this person, the person may lose interest. Their arousal comes from the fear and tension they see in their victim. +Hate tight spaces? Consider **Claustrophilia** or those sexually aroused by being confined in small compartments. Often a person can put a partner with claustrophobia in a confined area and the apprehension can increase arousal when having sex. Just imagine the phone booth, coat closet and coffin fantasies we might be reading about. Well, maybe not the coffin stuff. + **Anasteemahilia** is the attraction to a person because of their difference in height. Wow, my fantasy with a WNBA basketball team now has a word to define it. Of course the variations here can add a bit of spice. A short man with a tall woman is a bit different from the normal pairings we see and can get very exciting in BDSM adventures, while very tall men with very short women can feel and enhanced sense of power, again with some BDSM opportunities. +Ah, the arm pit. The arm pit is very sensitive to a tongue or the warmth of a penis. **Axillism** is the use of the armpit for sex, a practice more common in Europe where women are more likely to grow their arm pit hair, however, the freshly shaved armpit is very sensitive, but if there is too much stubble it can be irritating to a penis. Of course, with a few good stories about arm pit sex here at Literotica and axillism may become the new blow job in the not too distant future. +Okay, let's exercise a bit of caution with this next practice, though according to some practitioners, it is not really all that painful. I'm talking about **Bee Stings** on, yes, you got it, the penis. While bee stings were once thought useful as a remedy for arthritis, they can also be used to extend the duration of orgasm and the stings increases the circumference of the penis. To save yourself from having to run naked into the flowers, some people suggest capturing two bees, spinning their jar to make them dizzy and disoriented and then, holding their wings, apply them to the penis. +Again, the practitioners claim this is not really all that painful, but honestly, I ain't gonna be fucking no flowers anytime in the near future. One thing guys, if you are allergic to bee stings, let's not try this, even if you are working hard to impress a lady. Honestly, exercise **caution** here, it is believed that about 5% of the population is allergic to bee stings. If you have been stung and are experiencing an allergic reaction, quickly consult a medical professional. Hmm, now if you need a fun way to kill off a character, here may be your chance. +These are just a hint of the strange, sick, and downright kinky things that some people have done or are doing right now. Just think that sexy person riding up in the elevator with you may have just... well, that is entire up to you. Have fun. + **Bibliography:** +1.)

Especially considering the amazing wide variety of persons, places and things there are out there to fuel our sexual appetites. Considering the many odd fetishes and sexual practices that people indulge in or fantasize about, erotic writers have a rich fertile place to look for story ideas. +Of course this rich fertile place for story ideas is also a rich fertile place to find sexual gratification. Within the bounds of common sense and the specifics of your locality's laws, all that is holding you back is within yourself. Even though you may not dare to try some of the things I describe they are often interesting to think about. +Guys, imagine yourself kneeling in front of a beautiful tall woman, or women imagine a man kneeling in front of you. Imagine the guy moving forward and slipping his hard cock between your knees for a fast and hard knee-fuck. Well that is **Genuphallation** or rubbing the penis between a partner's knees. This certainly adds a little color to the phrase, ""Knee high to a..."" or perhaps not. +For those of us writing for the Mature category we often write about **Gerentophilia** or the attraction of some people to significantly older partners. Some people are aroused in some way hoping to reconcile the lack of affection they may have experienced from a parent or others may just prefer the compassion, intelligence and experience of older people. There are also rapists who only attack older women. This is also called anoraptus. +The transsexual and cross-dresser category is often home to stories of **Gynemimetophilia** or those aroused by a male impersonating a female or male to female transsexuals. While this is only half the transsexual equation I imagine there must also be a term for those turned on by women impersonating a man or female to male transsexuals. +When writing either S/M stories or gay stories consider the **Handkerchief Codes** where a person indicates his or her preferred sexual activities based upon the color of a handkerchief and where it is worn on the body. Some gay and S/M groups use handkerchiefs to signal potential partners of their preferences. Generally if a handkerchief is worn on the left side, it means the wearer is a top, while if it is worn on the right side, it means the wearer is a bottom. +The color coding offers a wide variety of sexual activities to advertise: +Black ------------ Heavy S/M Dark Blue -------- Anal Light Blue ------- Oral Gray ------------- Bondage Red -------------- Fisting White ------------ Novice +Please be aware these codes are not necessarily universal, so you might want to confirm the coding before donning your colors and heading out to a club or something. When considering the dark blue versus light blue, you might want to make sure you use a washing detergent that won't fade colors or you might get a surprise. + **Harpaxophilia** is the arousal from getting robbed. This can be used in fantasy play where a ""victim"" goes to bed later to be awakened by a scantily clad cat burglar. At some point the ""victim"" will be bound and interrogated about the whereabouts of valuables and then sexually molested by the ""burglar."" +Perhaps a bit shocking for some people, **Hierophilia** defines those aroused by sacred objects. A hierophile may masturbate with a cross or while sitting on pews in a church. Some people have been known to break into a church and have sex on the altar. Wow, perhaps this can be used in the celebrity category: ""Holy fuck Batman, I didn't know the Penguin was a hierophile."" ""Don't bother me Robin, I'm ah... praying."" +Somewhat in line with hierophilia is **homilophilia** or being aroused while listening to or _giving a sermon_. Oh Jimmy Swaggart, had we only known. +There are some adults who remain children actually having an aversion to adult bodies, clothing, etc. This is **infantilism**. There also those who are aroused by playing the role of an infant, often donning diapers as their partner cares for them like an infant. +Okay folks, here's one for your sewing circle. **Infibulation** is the sewing or fastening of the foreskin over the penis, sewing the labia together or sewing the scrotum over the penis. And to think your wife wants a new Singer Sewing Machine for Christmas. Fucking ouch! +There you go, a few mild little kinks, if we disregard the sewing machine. Of course it will never be the same for me when I'm in church and I look around during the boring sermon and see nothing but smiling faces.

The footprints they leave will literally ruin your garden or lawn, and if you think your dog leaves a big mess when he does his business, boy are you wrong! So, to keep your yard safe from these pesky pachyderms, follow the steps below, and I guarantee your yard will remain elephant free. +When you first lease or purchase a new home, the first thing you should do is take a trip to the local nursery to purchase as many elephant ear plants as you can. Plant these about two to three feet apart around the entire perimeter of your yard, inside the fence line if possible. (Some people used to think that elephant ear plants would attract elephants, but when they see a bunch of disembodied ears lying around, it tends to deter them.) +When they are all planted, you must mark your territory. In most instances, masturbating on the leaves works the best, because rain cannot wash the scent away as easily as urine. Both the male and female of the house may share this task, as elephants are repulsed by the scent of both sexes. If you have an unusually big yard, and you have friends who would be willing to help you out, enlist them. If not, drink plenty of fluids to keep yourself hydrated, because you have a big job ahead of you. +The next step is to buy a couple of dozen white mice from the pet store. Place each one in its own clear jar, making sure to give them air holes, and put them aside until later. +When the sun is just about to set, take the mice to your main driveway and put them in a circle big enough that two people can comfortably lie between them. Light twelve candles and have sex as loud and nasty as you can, christening your new home. (If you are single, see if you can find someone who is willing to have a one-night stand, and if not, you can always pay someone for it). +When you are finished, you can set the mice free if you wish, or keep them as pets. Whatever you do, don't kill them, or the elephants may come in your yard just to thank you for your kindness. +To deter bull elephants from your yard, this next step is very important. For at least two weeks after you move in, every time the male of the house goes outside, he should proudly display his trunk to show that this yard is his domain. The erect position seems to work the best from my research, as it points up and sways more like an elephant's this way. If the male is not very well endowed, or there is no male available, a strap-on dildo also works well. (Elephants are always comparing trunk size, so the larger the display, the better it works.) +Female elephants are much easier to trick than the males. To keep them off of your lawn, you must place diapers, bottles, or anything that has to do with babies in the trees and bushes around your yard. Elephants hate anything to do with being pregnant or having babies. (If you had to be pregnant for two years, and then give birth to a four hundred pound baby, you probably wouldn't like it either.) +The final step you must take to keep the elephants away is the most important one of all. On the night of the first full moon that you reside in your home, all adults in the house must perform this ritual. +First, take off all of your clothes and run around the yard squeaking like a mouse for several minutes. Next, when you have caught your breath, take an elephant tusk (or something that resembles one), and circle the perimeter of your property five times. As you go, use the elephant tusk to sodomize each other. When you are finished, I guarantee no elephant will ever come into your yard. (If you saw someone sticking an elephant tusk up someone else's ass, would you want to visit him or her?) +With all of the tasks complete, you should never have a problem, because as you know, an elephant never forgets. What you may not know is that they also tell all of their friends which yards to avoid. The down side of these rituals is that your neighbors may think you are insane and not want to associate with you, at least until an elephant tears up their yard. Then you can share your knowledge with them, and you will be life long friends. I know this works, because I have never had an elephant in my yard, ever." +405,How To Kill A Good Thing,Threesheets,How To,2003-01-14,2003-01-14,2022-01-04 08:32:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-kill-a-good-thing,How to ruin a loving relationship in one easy lesson.,"['Couple', 'Good Thing', 'Thought Told', 'Told Needed']",3.74,"Four years of trust, friendship and yes, love, down the tubes because of a stupid mistake. +The Open Lifestyle community is a good sized thing but it's not so large that eventually you don't take the chance of running into someone who knows some of the same people. For the most part we are all a fairly close mouthed group. We don't kiss and tell. There are occasions when that does not apply and that would be where we are now. Someone sincerely cares about your health and well being so that they let something slip or describe something that you recognize as too familiar to let pass. +Take the other day when we started seeing another couple. We indicated we preferred to be friends first and that was fine with them. We did have dinner a couple of times and we chatted on the computer and phone to make sure we were compatible. +Now I know it's a bad thing following up on someone but sometimes you can't help it. +About three months ago our steady couple we have been seeing indicated they would be going out with another. That in itself is no big deal except my wife and the husband of the other couple had been on the outs for a while. There were some trust issues that just couldn't be resolved. +We were ""mutually exclusive"" that is no other couples but us. Or so I thought. +It was hard to maintain a relationship this way, we were still friends, cordial, participating in family functions as we always did. +It had been quite a while though since we were intimate. The other couple (the wife) told me they went on a date and that the couple were nice but they probably wouldn't pursue them as partners. Well that was fine with me, no one ever said you couldn't ""date"" and check folks out. Just that if you went ""horizontal"" you protected yourself and your other partners by letting them know and by using condoms. +As fate would have it and we all know how Mr. Murphy rears his head on occasion, my wife and I also started to ""date"" so we could meet new folks. I was proud of the fact that we were open and honest with each other and our prospective partners. +On our second dinner date, I mentioned the fact that I still had an ongoing relationship with a woman who, I thought, told me everything I needed to know to protect me. +Well as I mentioned, Mr. Murphy was at the table and the couple described an evening they had with another couple. Nothing detailed and absolutely no names, but by the description of events, actions and behaviors, it readily became apparent that they were describing our partners whom we trusted to tell us if they were to get involved with another couple. +We discovered that the couple they were describing, our friends, had been with them no less than two other times and they had been horizontal both times. Although the woman in the new couple could not get over the way the other woman was clinging and hanging on her man. It really got to her to the point I don't believe she enjoyed herself and she just came out and said there was no way they would ever go with them again. +The man in the new couple indicated that he not only did his thing but she was VERY receptive to his advances. +Now it's really hard to get into specifics but about this time I asked the lady to take a walk with me. +As we left to walk along the water front, I asked her if the woman she was referring to was named *****, and was her husbands name, ****. To both she answered yes, and I went on to describe her and him and their car to make sure we were on the same page. + We were and she was so angry with the other woman's actions that she said the only reason she brought it up in such detail was because I had said my girlfriend wouldn't lie to me and told me all the things I needed to know about being safe. +This obviously was NOT the way I thought things were going. +She was really concerned that she made a mistake but I assured her the only mistake was made by the one who didn't tell me so I could be careful. +We parted good friends and we'll see them again soon. +The following day, as luck would have it, the couple in question were to be at our house for a little ""quality time"". +As two of us were in the spa, I mentioned that my wife and I would be dating and as a result of that dating, we would be using condoms in the future to ensure safety. I got a ""good luck"" in a sarcastic type of way. When asked she said she and her hubby had tried dating once and that it was an abortive effort. That is they did it once and then not again. +I was floored although I shouldn't have been with the information from the previous evening. I let it go for the time being, as I wanted to talk to my wife and also the other couple to find out what exactly happened. +I did this and my wife and I were truly upset that we could have been exposed without our knowledge to something SERIOUS. +After touching base with the new couple and getting a time line for the ""dates"", I then set up a lunch with my girlfriend who I thought told me everything I needed to know. We were dealing with a lot of hurt, and a lot of mistrust that had built up. We had lunch and what it boiled down to was one question. I had mentioned to her that I was really upset. That I had found out about the ""other couple"" in an ""oh, by the way"" type of conversation. I was really wondering how many other ""oh, by the ways"" there were. If she had been with someone while we were still together in an unprotected situation or what. +Let me say this, because of the open lifestyle I accept a lot. If my girlfriend or wife want to have relations with someone, that's fine, as long as I know that it's happening and I can take the appropriate steps to be safe. +That said, I asked if there were any other ""oh by the ways"". She said no. Just the one time and she didn't even get wet. Now this flies in the face of what I knew already. There was more than one time. I think that hurts more than anything else. The fact that she lied when she said she didn't even get wet could be marked off as her not wanting to hurt my feelings by saying someone else excited her also. No problem with me there. The big problem though was that I knew she was lying and I have to wonder how many more times I've been lied to that could have caused me to contract something that keeps on giving, like genital warts, herpes, or worse, something that killed me. +So to get back to the subject of How to Kill a Good Thing? Play games, be less than truthful with the ones who love and trust you and in general, just lie.

Now, now, settle down, Kinky is a fine man who I'm sure in his private life he gets real kinky, but when it comes to the public, he keeps his zipper pulled up and his kinks curled up in his hair. Unfortunately, in spite of the zipper and kink thing, he lost, finishing fourth in the race. The only hope we have now is if he runs for President. +So what does this have to do with kink? Well you got to read... this is the more. I bring you Kinky things and political commentary. What better bedfellows could we find? So beyond the semen stained dresses and lies about WMDs what else is there in this fucked up kinky world? +Where here's one for all us writers here at Literotica, sick bastards that we are: **Narratophilia** describes many of us, people who get aroused by telling sexual stories or jokes, or reading erotic stories or poems to our partners. In the great tradition of Mark Twain, James Thurber, Will Rogers and many others we tell wild and wonderful stories, only difference, we fucking get off to writing or telling our stories and poems. Just be careful the next time you read your stuff at the local Barnes and Noble, that tell-tale wet spot in your pants may give you away. +For those of you still remembering the nasolingus I discussed earlier, I bring you **Nasophilia** or arousal from the sight, touch, act of licking or sucking a partners nose. Okay, okay, calm down, some of this is not all that snotty, really. Consider the Eskimos who will rub noses when greeting someone, and the Sioux Indians who would rub noses to express affection. As for the licking or sucking it' _s not_ something I want to discuss further here. +For all you ""Six Feet Under"" fans, our next kink takes you into some pretty dark places. **Necrophilia** takes us into the erotic attraction to corpses. While most of us have heard this term, the kink is a rare paraphilia. Some necrophiles will masturbate during funeral sermons or songs, while others will go as far as getting up close and personal with dead bodies. +As they might say on Monty Python, ""And now for something completely different,"" we have **Normophilia** or the condition of being is sexual conformity with the religious and legal authorities in your area. Oh my, can we spell B O R I N G. Kind of makes you think of what they say about dieting: ""If it tastes good, it's fattening."" I guess there must be a corollary, ""If it feels good it must be sinful."" Okay, okay, before I get lynched by the Religious Right let me just say, ""It's a fucking joke."" Yeah, yeah, not a particularly funny joke, but it is a joke. Oh where is John Kerry when you need him? Last time I ask him for a joke to tell you. +So, when all of you are rounded up to watch me be lynched, just remember as you are jostled about, there are those among you who might be enjoying the crowds more than you are. **Ochlophilia** describes those who are sexually aroused by the presence of a crowd. This may include when they are involved in orgies or merely attending large gatherings where the performers or spectators are semi-nude and packed closely together. Some ochlophiles will take advantage of the crown and grope those around them. Historically, the church occasionally had problems when priests were traveling in and out of crowded train stations. The brushing up against and interaction within the crowd often led them to orgasm amid the over-stimulation. And to think preachers nowadays have to hire prostitutes. +Okay, so you like watching the action while you have sex, well you better not watch too closely, especially if your partner is into **Oculolinctus** or the sexual arousal from the act of licking your partner's eyeball. There have actually been several cases where a female had to lick an eyeball during sex in order to orgasm. Just have plenty of Visine handy and you got it made. +Well, for all you normophiles out there, take this: **Pecattiphilia** is the sexual arousal from sinning. This may also display itself as guilt. Hmm, feeling guilty? You fucking sick pecattiphile pervert. Yeah, you see, we all have our kinks. +No read carefully here and pay close attention to the spelling, **Pediophilia** is the sexual arousal some get from dolls. One case described a man who collected Barbie dolls and then pulled off their heads, shaved and swallowed them for sexual arousal. Damn and all along I thought it was all about Barbie's incredible breasts. +And now one for the ladies or gay guys, **Phallophilia** is the sexual attraction to an extremely large erect penis or to an erect penis with extraordinary endurance. And I guess if you have both it's a double phallophile's dream. Like the old joke said: + _Guy: ""It's not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean.""_ +Woman: ""But only a fool would go to sea in a dingy."" +And that readers and writers is but a sampling of the wonderful kink from N to P along with some other Kinky things.

Presumably there are a lot of smart people reading here at Lit, but statistically there are also some pretty dumb asses also reading, so if I may borrow a joke that might have come from Jeff Foxworthy, ""What are a redneck's last words? 'Hey watch this.'"" Perhaps a corollary is appropriate here: ""What are a dumb ass kinky person's last words? 'Hey, what's this feel like?'"" +Honestly, some of the kinks are fun and harmless things, others are not and some are downright illegal or worse. So study up, pay attention and understand that for some of this stuff you probably should just read it and say to yourself, ""Hey, that's some pretty silly shit man."" And not, ""Well, it looks dangerous and I might maim or kill myself, but I really wonder what this feels like."" +Okay, enough of that common sense stuff. Keep in mind that, in most places, if you write about the kinks instead of actually practicing them you probably won't get hurt too bad. Now if you publish your stuff in your church gazette and use your real name, you might get yourself in trouble, so yeah, use a little common sense there too. + **Queening** is a more European practice where a dominant female, uses a man's head as her throne. She either sits on the side of his head with his nose near her anus or she sits so the male's eyes are covered by her pussy. The point here is not cunninglingus (fuck you spell check that is a word and it is spelled right), but more bondage and breath control. A somewhat similar practice in the US is in some strip clubs where a man sits at a chair with his head back as a dancer brings her pussy within inches of his face and then dances while the man is not allowed to touch her anywhere. You know, I don't remember this on that old TV game show, ""Queen for a Day."" +With another nod to the BDSM community, **Rhabdophilia** describes those who are aroused by being caned or flagellated. The caning is often combined with humiliation or fear in fantasy scenes. Usually in order to stimulate, the caning must be anticipated, threatening or administered as part of a scene with someone they are attracted to. Reference common sense here folks, I mean caning... like ouch. And even if you like ouch, do pay attention to what you are doing. Of course if it's in a story feel free to flail away. +Ah, now we are back to some good old, down home kink with **Sacofricosis** which is cutting a hole in your front pants pocket to allow access to the penis allowing for public masturbation. Like I always said, ""Never shake hands with a smiling man with his hand in his pocket."" +Perspiration... imagine a beautiful body with that incredible sheen just after a workout. A wonderful sight for **Salirophilia** or people aroused by tasting salty body fluids such as perspiration. At one time perspiration was thought to have magical qualities and I must admit, seeing some people glistening with it is certainly magical. +Here we go, the whole point about common sense was with this practice in mind. **Scrotal Infusion** also called ballooning or scrotal inflation is when a liquid (never air!!!!) is injected into the scrotal sac until it resembles a water balloon. Get this: men actually claim this doesn't hurt (I ain't gonna find out) and also claim that by the next morning the fluid will filter to the penis causing it to swell up like a beer can. Well, all I can say is, ""This Bud's for you,"" because I am not going to even consider anything like this. Warning, read up on this practice, there is a lot more involved that just the minimum description I provide above. +Now, back to the more normal fun and games we have **Siderodromophilia** or those people aroused by trains. Couples will often reserve a cabin on a train and then have sex standing in front of the window while the train passes through the town. ""Why look mommy isn't that grandma and grandpa on the train?"" Other people will sneak quickies in bathrooms or corners. Who can forget that scene in ""Risky Business?"" +So there you have it, a lot of kink and a bit of common sense. It is best practice both together.

If it could be licked, sucked, fucked, pissed on, kissed, or milked some one has done it trying to get off. +With all this fun, demented, sick and kinky stuff going on how on earth can writers run out of ideas. Ah, then you say, but some of that shit some people may not want to read about. ""If I write it they might be uncomfortable or feel nauseated or think it's impossible, they just won't like it."" So what? If you write a story that has them vomiting on the floor, well, if that was your intent then you have done a good job. If they hate your character so much they vote a one on everything you ever wrote, then you have effectively written your story (well, provided it was your intent to create a despicable character). The same goes for kink. +Now yes, there are limits. Literotica has some specific guidelines about what they will let you post here. Bestiality, pedophilia, excessive violence and excessive humiliation are among a few other things that are simply not welcome here. Elsewhere it may be different. If there is a story, write it and if it fits here at Lit, give it a shot if you like. You may get a lot of fun comments from a lot of anonymous people, if the comments bother you just remember they are anonymous. Remember the Beatles song, ""He's a real nowhere man, making all his nowhere plans for nobody."" Occasionally the comments can give you a gauge on how well the story worked and on some rare occasion you get some knowledgeable commentary on your work. Either way, once they have been posted to your story, they are yours to do with as you please. If only all those anonymous commenters left their name and address you could pay them for their insight. +Ah, then they would all get rich for just leaving comments and they might experience **Timophilia** or those people aroused by wealth or status. Well, duh! Aroused by wealth or status? Reminds me of a story a friend once told me, actually from a sermon she heard. + _A man talking to a beautiful woman says, ""I'll give you a million dollars if you'll go to bed with me.""_ +She replies, ""Why yes of course."" +The man then asks, ""Well, would you do it for twenty dollars?"" +""Of course not, what kind of woman do you think I am?"" +The man replies, ""Well, I have already established what kind of a woman you are, I'm just negotiating the price."" +Wow, that's a pretty brutal look at virtue. Actually, the term above applies to the person with the wealth. Some wealthy people will actually take treasured objects to bed with them. Jimi Hendrix is reported to have slept with his guitar, while wealthy women have worn furs and diamonds to bed. The wealthy also get a sexual rush from the power and influence they can wield over people, including sexual partners. And hey, if anyone wants to pay me a million dollars to go to bed with me, please let me know. Twenty bucks? What kind of whore do you think I am? Twenty bucks, well okay, but first you have to buy me dinner. +Not really a kink, but an interesting peek at **Touch** and sensitivity. Sensitivity is measured with an instrument like a hair pin with two separate points adjusted to some specific distance apart. Tests are then run touching the skin with the two points and the distance between the points where the skin feels the sensation of two distinct points instead of one give an indication of the sensitivity. The closer the points are to each other when the skin detects two points instead of one the more sensitive the skin. A sensitivity chart shows what areas on the body are more sensitive: +Location Distance between points +Tip of tongue 1-2 mm +Clitoris 3-4 mm +Penis Glans +Pre-tumescence 5-9 mm +Tumescence 9-15 mm +Post-tumescence 3-4 mm +Anus 4-5 mm +Nipples 8-10 mm +Lips 3-4 mm +Neck 50-60 mm +""Well, piss on that,"" you say. Okay then we'll talk about **Urophilia** or those who derive sexual pleasure from acts involving urine. This includes a multitude of activities including urinating on someone, being urinated on, drinking urine, and a few others. The gratification for some people involves engaging in activity that their mother would condemn. For others, boys especially, discover urine is a powerful weapon, I mean almost everyone will retreat from a stream of urine. This sense of power can be recreated bring on arousal. +There you are, some more kink, a few writer survival recommendations and some interesting information on sensitivity. I found the difference in the penis glans sensitivity particularly interesting, especially how it loses sensitivity as it become erect and then suddenly become most sensitive as it softens. I guess thinking on it, it sounds about right. And now, let's all get kinky. +* + **Bibliography:** +1.)

If writing about it you will be relatively safe, again, depending upon where you publish it. Another thing to consider with a lot of this kinky stuff is safe sex. Yeah, I know in stories it kills the fantasy of it all, but hey once you put down the book, shut down the computer or quit writing and start pulling off clothes and getting kinky, the fantasy becomes very real and so do the consequences. +Basically if you are exchanging bodily fluids of any kind (remember the nasolingus?) you are leaving the realm of safe sex. So feel free to fuck those knees or armpits, but keep things in focus and take the proper steps to protect yourself. This is especially important if you are considering the first kink I will touch on here. + **Vampirism** basically involves drinking blood for arousal. The methods and means are varied, but includes cunninglingus during a woman's menstrual cycle. It also can include biting that draws blood, making a cut in the skin, and using a hypodermic needle to collect blood. Some kinky folks drawn to vampirism will seek partners who have large veins because just looking at the veins is arousing. Vampirism is often part of extended rituals and fantasy scenes played out by enthusiasts. +Ah, here's one for all you workout nut, something to do at the gym. **Weight Training** refers to sex games played where weights are hung from nipples, genitals or piercings. In some cases it will heighten sensations, for instance an experience with nipple clamps becomes that much more intense when weights are hung from the clamps. In other cases it is just some kind of kinky fun. A good example was a competition once held at the Chicago Hell Fire Club where weights were hung from men's testicles to see how much weight the men could bear. Starting with a nominal weight, the weight was increased in five pound increments until the contestant could bear no more. Well, there was a three way tie at a weight of eight-five pounds hung from their testicles. None of the three men wanted to endure the additional five pound weight added so they could claim the entire title for themselves. Okay, picture this, you are mountain climbing nude and your very small girlfriend slips and grabs the first thing she can grab sliding past you. Ouch. But damn, I think there's a story in this one, nude mountain climbing. +There are strange people and then there are strangers, people you don't know. Well for you lucky strangers we have **Xenophilia** or those sexually aroused by strangers. They will feel in increase in passion when they meet new people, but after seducing them will often quickly lose interest. A xenophile is built for the one night stand. Of course this would be a wasted kink on those people who are said to never have met a stranger. +Long before the world had phallus worship and perhaps the ensuing penis envy there was **Yoni Worship** or worshiping the woman's genitalia. One reason for the yoni worship, especially in ancient times is based upon its ability to give life. Carvings of the yoni were initially carved in a round stone, but later took forms much like a horse shoe. These carvings of the yoni were thought to bring luck when hung upside-down over a doorway. And hell, I thought the lucky horseshoe was about horses, not kinky pussy worshipers. +Jealousy is a powerful emotion, it can be more powerful with those having **Zelophilia** or people aroused by jealousy. This arousal may come from either partner's jealousy. The zelophile may be aroused seeing his partner's jealousy rising from his actions or talk or they may be aroused in their own jealousy over a partner's actions or talk. If they are aroused by their own jealousy if often stems from a fear of loss and the adrenaline it produces. This type of zelophile may gain sexual arousal witnessing their partner being approached or even in engaging in sex. Wow, think of all those Loving Wives stories featuring zelophiles. +And another Zee word brings us to **Zoophilia** which is not allowed here at Lit. Let just say it's about having a bit too much fun at the zoo. Enough said. +Suddenly, there it is, a small sampling of the A to Zs of kinky stuff and a few other things thrown in. Hopefully thinking about these kinks may bring on some story ideas or give you something to do on a lazy Saturday afternoon. For some of the things I talked about you might want to make sure your local emergency clinic is open when you begin your kinky play. Otherwise, have fun with your kinks. +* + **Bibliography:** +1.)

I may not know what all females want but I do know from being a female and from my female friends that we have a lot of problems with what the guys think they have to do to please us. +If you guys out there really want to know how to please a female and I’m not just talking about in the sexual way then read this and I guarantee it will help out. +First of all, All woman love romance we love to know that you have put a lot of thought into pleasing us the one thing you guys always mess up on is the excuse I couldn’t do it because of money or because I didn’t have the time. First of all it does not take money to plan a romantic evening. Here are a few ideas. Take her to a park bring a radio and picnic food with you but make sure to add some erotic food in with the rest like, strawberries, grapes, oranges and whip cream. If you have a bottle of wine bring it along with glasses. Play some slow music and poor a glass of wine for both of you. The erotic fruit is there for feeding each other. Try and tell her on that day what she means to you and what you think about her and if you want you can tell her what part of hers turns you on females like to know they please you. +Another thing you can do is find an open field turn on the radio and the head lights and get out of the car and ask her for a dance it’s romantic to be in the arms of the person you love, while beneath the stars. +Another problem I have heard about from a lot of females is guys don’t buy them anything for their anniversary because they said they didn’t have the money to or what they want to get was to expensive right now. First of all females don’t care about how much something cost what we care about is the fact of how much thought you put into it and if it comes from the heart. Make a card and put your feelings down in it or write what you would like to do to her in it. Write a coupon book with things you would do like “I will give you a thousand kisses but not two can be in the same spot”. Light some candles if you have them if not turn a lamp on and throw a thin cover over it and turn on some slow music and take her into your arms. That all it takes +Now when it comes to the sexual part females like be shown how much she turns you on. First of all the one thing I have heard that a lot of females have complained about is you guys always want a blow job but don’t go down on her half as much as she does you. Or that you guys don’t take your time on feeling her or rubbing her. Guys listen up females are as just as sensitive as you are in that area or maybe more we always hear it makes my tongue tired or it hurt or my tongue is numb well guys here is the truth giving you head is not easy why not get a pickle or cucumber and try it and see what I mean. Our mouths get tired and numb and sore but we still go on because we want to please you. Also take time to enjoy your partner’s body take time to find the sensitive areas find out what she likes and don’t like find out what makes her moan or what makes her scream and the way to do that is to explore and take your time doing it. And I guarantee you your partner will thank you deeply later. +Another thing you guys may not know or understand is females have low self esteems most of the time they need to be told how you feel they need to know you desire them and that you think they are pretty or beautiful. They love to be complimented like for examples your lips are like a fine wine, your hair shines like the morning sun, and your eyes are like the stars at night things like that. +I think there are only a few guys out there who truly know what a woman wants out of you. Why is it so hard for you to do simple things like calling your girl on your lunch break or writing a sweet note and sticking it somewhere you know she will find it how hard is it to pick up a rose on the way from home from work?

It is greatly appreciated. +This how to story will be a continuation of my last how to story which for those of you who did not get a chance to read was about how to know what women want. For the guys that have not seen the first part of this I’m here to help guys understand women better and also I am here to try and explain why most of us women complain and what guys could improve on. +First off guys the big problem I have always heard about is that you guys start courting a woman in the beginning of your relationship then when you start getting serious in the relationship you stop telling and showing her how you feel, and that is a big mistake. A lot of women have doubts (for example does he not desire me anymore, am I to fat for him now, does he think I’m boring). So we need to know what you feel all of the time. Some guys think that showing a woman emotion makes them weak, but in truth in our eyes it makes you even stronger. Some guys are afraid of telling women what he wants in fear of rejection or in fear that you will be laughed at, but I have always heard that I wish my wife or girlfriend would tell me what she wants, but in truth we are afraid for the same reasons. So guys don’t stop telling and showing your women how you always feel and always let her know that what she has to say is valued by you. +Also it is true some women tend to want all of this without giving the same in return. I am not like this nor are any of my friends. So for the women who always wants affection please remember your guy needs it to. What I write in these how to stories may not be the same for other women but for most it is. A question for the guys is what do you truly want? Guys always talk about not being able to read their loved ones mind but also remember that this problem goes both ways. I personally want guys to tell me what they truly want. +I have heard guys tell me in the feedback that they sent me about how they just don’t think that way. It is true guys have different thinking skills than a woman does. Guys grow up thinking about cars and electronics while women start planning their wedding at age 9-10 some times earlier, but if it’s so easy to say I love you then how hard it is to show it? What makes me mad in this world today is that you hear and see everyday about men sleeping around and females doing the very same think but have they not thought about how it will affect them when they do find the one they want to be with for the rest of their lives? Don’t they know that every time you sleep with someone that you give a part of your self to that person, and if you sleep around a lot, by the time you find the one you want to spend the rest of your life with, you will have nothing left to give. Also cheating is another thing that makes me mad, why cheat? What is the point in it? I think that if you want to sleep with someone else why not end the relationship you’re currently in? +Sex should not be taken lightly as it is suppose to be a joining of the souls. Sex is not a chore nor is it something you just have to do. Guys we don’t want to hear about your other sex partners or girlfriends because all it will do is start making us have doubts about ourselves, or make us think that we are not as good as they were, or that you still desire her. Guys and girls don’t compare the opposite sex to your ex lover or spouse. Everyone is different and your new loved one shouldn’t have to pay for what she or he has done to you. If she or he in the past has cheated on you don’t assume that your new loved one is doing the very same thing as well. +I have always heard that “my guy is not open with me, or I don’t know what he thinks when it comes to me, or I have no clue as to what he wants for us in the future”. I have heard those so many times that I can not even begin to remember the number of times I’ve heard them. Women like to know what is going on, as we don’t like to be in the dark. A lot of times women have this feeling well I’m only here to cook, or clean and that I’m just here for sex. That may not be true but how many times have we been told thank you or how many times have we been appreciated for the everyday things we done? A lot of guys think we have it easy and that we get to stay home and that cleaning the house and taking care of the kids is easier than a man’s job. That is not true, not even close to being true. My friends and I have done a study on this, and we’ve always heard it from our other half so we chose one day that us girls would go do their job while the guys done ours. It was a test for us. We came home happy and not tired, and the guys were beat and complaining about all the stuff that they had to do and how difficult it was but they all learned that it is not as easy as you would think. Why don’t you guys give it a try once in a while? +Guys I need to speak up for a minute as I have received a lot of emails from guys who say they do all of this and more. I have also received emails stating that the women take advantage of them when they do these things but in my experience with women like that they are not worth your time and to you guys who said those things think back on how many times she has done the same for you? Sometimes when females don’t appreciate the things you do it is usually because she wants out or that she doesn’t know how to take it. +I don’t just sit down at my computer and write these how to stories. I go out and talk to many females on this subject and write down what each one says and put it into a story format. So this is not just coming from me. The last story I wrote was out of close to 60 women who spoke on the subject including myself. +To the guy who asked me “why do women develop the attitudes that they do”. Well there are many reasons that a woman might develop a attitude. First off think about it, we are not really accepted as much as guys are. Women have certain things they look for when it comes to a guy and when they search and search and can’t find what they are in search of that can become frustrating. Hormones are another thing that can cause an attitude to develop. Guys in general are just complicated as they don’t usually see life as we do, they don’t think in the same way as we do, and their hormones are a lot different than a woman’s hormones are. Also when it comes to females we have to keep a guard up as there are a lot of guys out there that think that we are sex toys or we have guys who think we have a sign on our bodies saying touch me, but we don’t. We don’t like guys to just come up and grab us. We have guys that talk about our body parts like we are on a platter. Okay guys it is about time for this story to end so I will leave off with a few more romantic notions that you could do to see a smile on her face. Buy her a rose on your way home from work, call her on your lunch break, write a love note and put it some where that you know she will find it. If you want to be even more thoughtful you could get home before she does and fix lunch or dinner for the both of you. Depending on what time it is you could light some candles and play some soft music but for the big part you can write her a lot of little love letters and make a trail into another room with you at the other end with roses in your hand. Try to relax her and make her feel pampered. Draw her a bubble bath and ask to wash her back or give her a shoulder massage. Well guys it’s about time for me to end this but I hope this how to story was as much enjoyable as the first one.

Which is the best place you can think of. No, not the grandstand for your favourite sporting event. It's when you are in that delightful warm, wet and slippery place of love; inside your lovers body. +We men are biologically programmed for sex. As soon as our basic needs (food, clothing, shelter) are dealt with, our thoughts turn to sex. It is a basic urge and we all experience a build – up of tension between one sexual encounter and the next. +Unfortunately, we seem to be biologically programmed to come too fast. It is probably our ancestry; ancient peoples needed to deposit their sperm inside their mate quickly before someone else had the chance to. +Now it is the 21st century and the urge to have sex is still there; but we are now enlightened enough to know that for our partners and ourselves, long languid lovemaking is generally preferable to short and sharp. We take pride in satisfying the sexual needs of our wives, partners or lovers. We now know that women take more time to get aroused and reach orgasm. We also know from our own feelings that a long lovemaking session gives US more time to enjoy the sensations that only our lovers bodies can give us. Some of us know that a long build up leads to a bigger and better orgasm. +HOW LONG IS LONG ENOUGH? Early studies of western sexuality in the 1930's had average intercourse lasting around 1 minute and 30 seconds. By the 1960's, we men had improved to about 3 minutes. By the mid 1990's, the spread was 3 to 7 minutes, with most intercourse lasting around 5 minutes. +Five minutes you say. It seems a lot longer. Yes it does. I usually make love in our bed, and beside the bed is a digital clock. Next time you make love, check the time at the start of intercourse and check again when you come. You may be surprised. Five minutes seems so much longer. +How long does a woman need to come during intercourse? Sometimes, if they are really, really aroused, not so much time at all. Generally however, about 12 to 15 minutes. Bit of a time gap, yes. +WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO LAST 10 OR 20 MINUTES? Well, it gives us more time to experience the sensations of our partners bodies for one. If 3 minutes are good, 5 minutes is better. If 5 minutes are better, then 10 minutes is better again. Another reason is that we can take our male orgasm to places you never even dreamed of. Whole body orgasm and multiple orgasm become available. We are all capable of these with the right practice. And, of course, if you want to get your partner turned on the point where she is clawing at you with sexual tension and pleasure (and not faking it), you definitely need to learn to go the distance. +HOW TO LAST 10 OR 20 MINUTES Sex has been described as doing what comes naturally. Unfortunately, naturally usually means entering and then thrusting fast and deep. We need to do better than that. If you want to last, start slow. The outer 30mm or so of the Vagina is the most sensitive. In positions where you can control the depth of penetration, just enter that first 30mm and then draw back until you just make contact with her lips. Do it again. Do it several times. Then go deep but slow. Really, really slow. Then shallow 30mm some more times. And then deeper some more times; but really slow thrusts. Play around with shallow and deep and feel the different sensations. Feel how your partner responds to this; you may be surprised. +Second, stay in the moment. Don't let you mind drift away. Don't fantasise. Just concentrate on the feelings here and now. Feel how you penis feels as you vary the depth of penetration. Feel how much more arousing it is to thrust slowly, how her wet vagina caresses you on the way in, and her lips pull on your shaft on the way out. +Thirdly, watch your breathing. This is most important. When we have sex, all too often we lose control of our breathing. We pant, we hold our breath, we can't breathe properly. Concentrate on your breathing. Breathe long deep breaths, fill your lungs and then fully empty them. Just like the long slow strokes, mirror them with long and deep breaths. +Finally, keep your eyes open. Watch your lovers beautiful face. Even if her eyes are closed. Keeping your eyes open will help you stay in the moment and to be able to concentrate on the sensations around you and within you. +BUT, THERE IS MORE Men, this will require some practice on your own, but the rewards are worth it. First, you need to locate your PC muscle. This is the muscle you would clench to stop a urine flow mid-stream. It is easy to find with a finger pressed into the spot between the scrotum and the anus while actually stopping a urine flow. Once found, you need to strengthen it. +Practice squeezing, holding for several seconds and then releasing. Practice several repetitions several times per day until you get to about 100 or so per day. At first, the muscle will get tired quickly, but it will build up strength within a week or so. These exercises, known as Kegel exercises, can be practiced anywhere at any time. In the car waiting for a red light to change, in the bus or train on the way to work, at home in front of the television or while you are reading this guide. +Okay, after a few weeks, you have your PC muscle strong. This is good, you may already notice that a strong PC muscle is giving you a more intense orgasm without any other changes to your lovemaking. +The next step is to use your PC muscle for control. This requires self – stimulation (masturbation). If you are married, or in a relationship, it may be difficult to find the time and place. It is important that you do, because the benefits will be well worth it. +Your masturbation will be different. Do not grip the penis hard with your thumb and fingers circling it. Instead, use some lubrication and just stroke it with the fingers held flat. Try to mimic the gentle caress of the vagina. Feel how your body responds after some minutes as you get aroused. A tingling sensation will start at the base of the penis. As the tingling starts, stop the caressing, squeeze your PC muscle and attempt to draw the sexual energy in your penis up into your heart (your chest area). You should feel the tingling stop. Then continue the caressing until the tingling starts again. Again, squeeze the PC muscle and draw the energy to your heart centre. Keep on going, allowing the penis to become more and more aroused before drawing the energy away. Allow yourself to become very aroused; tingling along the whole length of the penis, like just before you are about to come. Then, squeeze hard and draw the energy away. If you start to come though, DO NOT attempt to stop it in mid-stream. +Try to do this exercise for around 20 minutes without coming. If you do come, it is of no consequence. You will need to do self – stimulation and practice control a few times until you feel confident that you have mastered the technique to mange the build up of your sexual energy. After 20 minutes of stimulation, you may want to allow yourself to come in order to avoid too much unresolved sexual tension. +PUTTING IT TOGETHER At this stage, the solution for advanced lovemaking should be obvious. However, the sensations during lovemaking are very different to self – stimulation. So it may take a number of goes to get it right. But don't worry, the practice is as much fun as sex will ever be, and every practice should improve your techniques. +Slow lovemaking, controlling your breathing, keeping your eyes open and using your PC muscle to help you to draw away excess sexual energy to your heart should give you the basic tools to extend your lovemaking to last as long as you want it to last. +FURTHER ENHANCEMENTS The techniques described above are from Tantric sexual practices. There are additional techniques for the curious. +Non ejaculatory orgasm. Surely, in a man, ejaculation and orgasm is the same thing? No so. With training, and practice, it is possible to separate orgasm (the pleasurable rhythmic contractions) from ejaculation and then, with training and practice, have an orgasm without ejaculation. +This can be used in two ways. The first way is if, during lovemaking, sexual energy is running too high, a non-ejaculatory orgasm, apart from being pleasurable in its own right, can be used to lower sexual energy without losing an erection. +The second way is as a substitute for ejaculatory orgasm. Tantric practitioners believe that emitting semen is a drain on energy and should be limited. I do not personally follow this belief, and recent medical research indicates that regular ejaculation is good for the prostate. Also, I find that although the waves of pleasure are similar, the non-ejaculatory orgasm is less intense. Even though I can have non-ejaculatory orgasms, and I sometimes have several, I always finish lovemaking with ejaculation. However, because of my sexual build up over a period of time, the orgasm that goes with ejaculation is very concentrated and often encompasses the next technique. +Whole body orgasm. A whole body orgasm is difficult to explain, as difficult to explain as trying to explain sex to a virgin. The closest analogy is that you can feel the body building up a 'charge' of energy, like electricity throughout the body. The face, fingers, toes, up to all of the body becomes charged with energy. When discharged through orgasm, the feeling is intense waves. Not the small waves of pleasure focused through the penis on ejaculation, but huge waves of pleasure, 10 times greater, throughout the whole body. +There are books available on Tantric practices, however for those who are curious about expanding the boundaries of pleasure, I recommend the workshop sessions that are becoming more common in different parts of the world. They can be for males only or for couples. I recommend couples sessions, if you partner agrees. Otherwise, you will need to undertake male workshop training. +I was fortunate to undertake Tantric sex training (with the blessing of my wife). No matter how much I read on the subject, at the end of the day there was no substitute for actually being shown and being able to practice with a Tantric Goddess. +CONCLUSION There is more to good sex than entering and pumping away. Many of us have developed techniques over time to help us get the most out of one of our most pleasurable pastimes. Notwithstanding that, there are always improvements we can make. Either to improve our pleasure, to improve our partners pleasure or to add more variety. I hope that this quick dissertation will assist those who are interested to consider looking into expanding their sexual performance horizons." +413,How To Learn Computers Via Sex,vic_elor,How To,2005-11-28,2005-12-07,2022-01-04 08:32:18,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-learn-computers-via-sex,1. Explaining computer terms via sexual examples. 2. Comparing computers to sex.,"['Computers', 'Sex']",4.65,"_Before you read this and possibly take offense, please keep in mind that this is meant to be funny. So chill out!_ +A lot of people have a hard time understanding concepts that relate to computers. If you don't have this problem, you probably know someone who does. On the other hand, most people understand sex. So, maybe you can learn something about computers by thinking about sex! +Hell, it's worth a try! +Below is a list of computer terms. With each one you'll see a description defining what it means in regards to computers and then a description defining the same thing in regards to sex. + **Daisy Chain:** +In computer terms: +A daisy chain is the effect of linking multiple devices together by plugging one into the computer, another into the first device, another into the second, and so on. This allows the user to hook up lots of devices to one computer. +In sexual terms: +Imagine a couple lying on the floor, and the woman is sucking on the man's cock. You could daisy chain this by getting another woman and having her eat out the first woman. You could continue to add woman onto this line quite a ways before things became impractical. + **Software design process:** +In computer terms: +The software design process is the creation of new programs. This involves designing the program, writing the program, testing the program, and maintaining the program. All stages can cycle backwards. +In sexual terms: +The software design process is like eating out a woman. First, you have to figure out how to use your mouth to give her pleasure. Then, you have to actually start doing it. During and after, you should check to see if it's working or not. If she's not enjoying it, you should make changes. Once you've figured it out and you know you can do it, start trying to improve it because you know she's going to want more pleasure the next time. + **Different types of computers:** +In computer terms: +We often only deal with three main groups of computers: Macs, PCs, and Linux machines. Macs are great but you're limited to some standard things and what ever you can come up with. Linux machines have lots of options, but it's hard to get them to do what you want unless you are experienced. PC's are very common and have lots of options, but are plagued by viruses and unwanted effects. +In sexual terms: +Macs are like masturbating. You can get a few common toys, but you'll largely left to your own ingenuity to get what you want. The plus side is, it's hard to get and STD from masturbating and you still get the job done. +Linux machines are like marriage. It sounds good at first because of all the possibilities, but you soon realize that you'll need to put in a lot of effort to make it work right. Much like masturbating, if you're married to a loyal partner it's not likely you'll catch an STD but you'll spend more time making them happy then if you just played with yourself. +PC's are like hookers. They are cheap, unless you want them to do something out of the ordinary, they are easy to use, and it's easy to find another one when you're bored with the one you have. Still, if you are not extremely careful, you're going to get lots diseases and your married friends will make fun of you for needing one. + **Disks/disk drives:** +In computer terms: +Disks are small objects that store data. You can take your disk from one machine to another without any problems. If you use the disk on a machine that has a virus, it might be transmitted via the disk to other machines. +In sexual terms: +This is just like fucking, at least from the male perspective. You stick your cock into a girl and if everything goes write, you send out your ""data."" If data doesn't get sent the first time, you pull your cock out of her and put it in her again and again until it works. The only difference between the two is you want things to work right on the first insertion with a computer where as with a girl if you shot off a load of data on the first insertion she's going to be very disappointed. + **Error messages:** +In computer terms: +Almost anyone who has used a computer has seen an error message. ""Java error 104"" is a good example. If you are an expert with computers and know a fair deal about the machine you're dealing with, you might know how to fix this error. If you're not, then this error means nothing and you can't fix it. +In sexual terms: +A computer is like a woman. She'll give you subtle or not so subtle hints that she's not happy. If you have lots of experience with women and know a lot about this girl in particular, you might be able to solve her problem. If not, you'll have to sleep on the couch. + **Server-Client VS. Adhoc networking:** +In computer terms: +A network is multiple machines hooked up together so that they can share data or resources. Two common types of network models are Server-Client and adhoc. The server client model means that all computers hook up to one centralized machine whose purpose it is to facilitate all the other machines, both computer and accessories, working together. An adhoc network is one in which machines just randomly group together without anyone centrally telling them how to connect. The first method has better control while the second requires less hardware. +In sexual terms: +Imagine a room with one guy, some sex toys, and a large number of extremely horny women. In the server-client model, all of the women are straight. They are more then willing to use the sex toys but they will only have sex with the man. This means that the only connection the women will have each other is through him. +In the adhoc model, all of the women are lesbians. They are all willing to use the toys and maybe even willing to share the toys directly with another woman. Since they are all lesbians, the man is ignored and the women can group up together in any random arrangement that they want. +Hopefully, you learned something from these comparisons. If not, hopefully, you at least thought that they were funny. +Either way though, if you are ever in a conversation in which one of these computer terms comes up, you know you'll start thinking about sex. So try not to giggle if a coworker is having problems with his disk drive. + +" +414,How to Learn to Swallow and Not Gag,Clintdear,How To,2012-11-17,2012-11-17,2022-01-04 08:32:19,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-learn-to-swallow-and-not-gag,Guide to learning how to swallow and not gag.,"['Blowjob Advice', 'Blowjob How-To', 'Cum Swallow', 'Gay Blowjob', 'Gay Oral', 'How To Swallow', 'Oral Sex How-To']",4.27,"There seems to be a lot of issues regarding learning to swallow your lovers cum. Some people gag, some choke, some just let it run out of their mouth and make a mess. That is not pretty or sexy! +Swallowing your boyfriend's cum goes a long way toward showing respect for him. It is an important aspect of being a gay guy, and a useful skill for a woman. +The point after a man's climax leads to a bit of a downer in most guys, and swallowing helps to allay that feeling. And of course, there is no clean up time necessary so you can seamlessly slither back into his arms and mitigate some of those feelings by whispering into his ear how wonderful he is, and how happy you are to be there. +So for you girls or boys, here's how to learn this important skill. +The initial problems many face are: +A - I didn't expect it. You'll learn that quick enough. +B - it was gooey. +C - it hit the back of my throat and made me gag. +What I am going to attempt to teach you is how to control the ejaculation by restricting the urethra (tube) at he bottom of the penis. You can push down on that tube a little as if your finger were pressing on a hose, and by doing that you are regulating the flow - but don't stop it completely, he won't like that. If you can't deal with it's output at first, then just retreat and let him cum the way you usually do. It takes awhile to learn, but you will learn if you follow my steps. +For the girls, if your boyfriend is cool with it, try regulating his stream by pressing on the urethra when he is taking a pee. Trust me, he might think you are crazy but he really won't mind. For the boys, no explanation is necessary except to do it on your man when having sex. But for both, try to be subtle with it. If you are gentle, he won't know what you are doing or why, let alone care. After all, he is in the midst of an orgasm! +So, reducing the velocity of his stream this way will also reduce the velocity of the ejaculation, and will spare your gag reflex from being triggered. As you probably know, the first and second spurts are the strongest, then things taper off from there, so you can practice letting off sooner and sooner. +By reducing the initial inrush of cum, you will be able to more easily concentrate on getting used to the taste, texture, and the feeling of the cum as it flows into your mouth slowly and gradually instead of getting it in a sudden deluge. By having smaller amounts come in slower, it is more quickly diluted with saliva and depending on your progress here, much easier to swallow. As you practice, you will find yourself becoming more and more eager to have him cum in your mouth with strong manly spurts. And you will also eventually be more and more comfortable with being a genuine sweetheart and letting his cock relax and soften in your mouth until he is ready to remove it. +When you've finally leaned to go ""hands free"", you will love and crave the unique and sexy feeling of your lover climaxing in your mouth. And you will have the satisfaction of knowing you gave him a blow job worthy of a porn star. +Regarding the gag reflex. Learning to tame it won't affect you too much. But if you don't really need one as much as you did when you were a child, your next lesson should be to deep throat, since it's related to cock sucking. +Like any nerve, it gets used to a certain stimulus and eventually treats it as normal. So start by going deeper on the cock until you start to gag, then back off, then immediately do it again and again until the reflex gets tired. It's as simple as that, and you already have a head start from the exercise above. But over time, you will diminish the gag reflex to the point where it really doesn't work effectively anymore. The only question then is ""do the the benefits outweigh the risks""." +415,How to Leave Your Lover,clarissaj1982,How To,2016-06-01,2016-06-01,2022-01-04 08:32:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-leave-your-lover,Vanessa is done with Oscar and now she gets to let him know.,"['Break Up', 'Football', 'How To', 'Oral']",4.06,"Vanessa was done with Oscar. She knew it. He just didn't know it yet. She thought he was a beautiful man, but he was selfish. He was cheap. He was a self obsessed narcissist. +She required no further convincing of his bad character. Not after last weekend when she had gone to his condo for a barbecue. She had taken extra time with her hair. She had shaved her legs, trimmed her pubes, and dressed in her sexiest top and shorts. She loved barbecue and was hoping to get lucky after dinner. That's what she told herself but what she really wanted was to fuck his brains out. When she got there Oscar was sitting on the couch watching football. He wasn't wearing a shirt. He looked good when she sat down next to him and put her hand on his shoulder. She wanted to touch him. +""Are you watching the Chargers?"" she asked. +""Nah, Ravens. Chargers game hasn't started yet."" +Vanessa thought this might be a good opportunity to get laid because she knew Oscar was a big Chargers fan. That was the game he was waiting for. That was the game he wanted to watch. She slid her hand down on his chest and rubbed his nipples as he watched the TV, engrossed in the game. When he leaned forward to grab his beer she let her hand slide down and rest on his crotch. He wasn't hard, but neither was he limp. She figured that situation was rectifiable. She slid her hand under the elastic waistband of his shorts. He was going commando tonight and she smiled as she began, gently, massaging his dick. He started to grow and stiffen. Soon he noticed what she was doing. +""Damn, Vanessa,"" he said, ""feeling a little frisky?"" He lifted his hips off the couch and pushed his shorts down to his knees then sat back down. His dick lay against his leg. ""There ya go, knock yourself out"" he said. +She smiled and took off her top, she leaned over and rubbed her tits on his dick, she wanted him hard so she lifted his cock and licked his balls. She spent some time sucking his balls and he was developing some serious wood. His hand had snaked over her back and he cradled her right breast. He squeezed her boob once during a play where the Ravens picked up 25 yards. She had been paying attention to his cock, not the game but he told her, ""did you see that, baby? It was perfect they picked up 25!"" +She took the head of his dick in her mouth and began moving her tongue in circles around it. She liked Oscar's cock. She liked the way it curved upwards when he was hard. She liked how hard it got. She didn't mind that it wasn't all that big - it was big enough for her. It was only Oscar who seemed a little insecure about the size. +Without any warning or sign that he was going to do so, he pushed her head down hard on his dick and started spurting cum. Warm, salty spunk was shooting into her mouth; lots of it. With a lot of force behind it. She lapped it up, swallowing every drop. She loved to make him cum but she was a bit disappointed that he had done it so quickly today. He pushed her back up on the couch, stood, and pulled his shorts back up. Then he plopped his butt down again, next to her. He said, ""Baby, I didn't get to the store so we don't have anything to put on the grill. Why don't you put your shirt back on and run get us some burgers. There should be a twenty on the entry way table. I wanna watch the rest of this game."" +""Really?"" she asked. She had been hoping for some reciprocal sex from him but it seemed that wasn't on his radar. +He just stared at the television. He didn't hear her so; she pulled her top back on and headed towards the front door. She spotted the twenty dollar bill on the table by the door and grabbed it. It was right next to his wallet so she picked that up too. She found another $300 in his wallet. She crumpled it together with the twenty and stuffed it in the pocket of her shorts. She hooked her bag on her shoulder and headed out the front door to her car that was parked at the curb. +She didn't go for burgers, and she didn't go back to Oscar's that day. She was pissed. She stopped at Aldo's and had the lunch special: poached salmon in a white dill sauce with capers. It was wonderful. Halfway through her meal Oscar called on her cell. She punched ""Ignore"" and took a sip of her white wine. She swirled it around in her mouth, still trying to rinse away the taste of his cum. She looked at the time on her phone. It had been over an hour since she had left. The game must have finished and he realized that she wasn't back. He must have been hungry. Good. +Three hours later she was at home when he called again, she figured that the Chargers game had just finished. She took his call this time. +""Hello"" +""Baby, where are you? The San Diego game is over and you're still not back."" +""Yeah, sorry, I had some car trouble on my way to Taco Bell. I was lucky though, a tow truck came by and rescued me. I've been sitting at the shop a long time. I'm probably not going to make it back over today. I didn't even realize that my phone was off till a minute or two ago. Sorry if you worried."" +""I wanted burgers."" He said. +""Yeah, so?"" +""You said you were going to Taco Bell. Why would you go to Taco Bell when you knew I wanted a burger?"" +""Sorry, I meant to say McDonald's. Listen, is it OK if I come over Wednesday night after work?"" +""Sure,"" he said, ""see you then."" +She hung up the phone, turned it off and went upstairs to draw a hot bath. She felt like a good soak and figured she had earned it. +When Wednesday came around Vanessa hadn't heard from Oscar at all. She left the office, went home and started the shower. She washed her hair, shaved her legs and then decided to shave her pussy. What the fuck, Oscar had been trying to get her to do this for a while, so she did. She kind of enjoyed the smooth feel that came with a shaved pussy, especially when she put soap on it. She used the hand held shower head and her fingers to bring herself off. She might have to keep shaving her pubes. It was nice; she thought that she could grow to like it. +She did her hair, dressed in a short skirt and button up top with the top three buttons undone. No bra. No panties. Four inch heels. She went down to the kitchen table and read the paper. Oscar called twice, she ignored them both. When she got to his house it was almost 9:00 and he met her at the door. +""Where ya been, baby? I've been calling. I was worried about you."" He took in her appearance. ""Damn, you look great."" +She grabbed his chin and planted a chaste kiss on his lips. ""Come in the kitchen with me,"" she said, ""I have something to show you."" She took his hand and led him behind her. She leaned back against the counter, and spread her feet about a foot apart. She bit her lower lip and unbuttoned two more of the buttons on her top. She pulled blouse open, shook her torso, and showed him her tits. He moved towards them but she closed her blouse before he could get his mouth in. +""That was just a teaser,"" she said. ""This is what I really wanted to show you."" Vanessa lifted the front of her short skirt exposing her pussy. She ran her fingertips up her leg, pausing only a moment to insert her finger and then hold it beneath his nose. +""Fuck, you shaved it,"" he said and dropped to his knees to began licking and sucking. He had kind of an awkward angle but she didn't care. She let him do what he was doing and when she came she pulled his head in tight as she shuddered. She wanted it to last forever. When he had a mind to, Oscar could give really good head. Finally she pushed him away and tousled his hair. +""That was great, man."" She said as she dropped her skirt and smoothed it down. ""I'm starving, let's go to Taco Bell."" She buttoned her blouse, snagged her purse, and headed for the front door. +""Wait a minute,"" Oscar said, ""what about me?"" She looked over her shoulder as she was leaving and saw him pulling down his trousers. +""Oh, that's right,"" she said, ""You don't like Taco Bell. OK, suit yourself."" She walked out his front door and down the walk. Her phone was ringing before she got her car started. She ignored it and pulled away from the curb. In her mirror she saw him dash out the front door trying to pull his trousers up over his boner and tripping on the walk. She laughed aloud and turned on the radio. +In some ways she was going to miss him. He had a magic tongue and a beautiful cock, but he was such an asshole. She wouldn't miss that at all." +416,How To Lick Pussy,Grifters,How To,2004-03-30,2004-03-30,2022-01-04 08:32:22,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-lick-pussy,A descriptive guide to orally pleasing a woman.,"['Eat Pussy', 'Legs Kiss', 'Moans Groans', 'Press Face', 'Show Appreciation']",4.04,"There is really only one way to eat pussy. And that is with every fiber of your being. Now don’t get me wrong there are several styles and positions you can do it in but to really lick and eat pussy you have to want to be down there and not afraid to get your face and hands messy. +You have to lay her back and spread her legs and kiss and lick and tease her pussy before you even think about entering her with a finger or tongue. You have to admire her legs and kiss and nibble and lick them. You cannot also forget that the rest of her body is very sensitive while you are between her legs, let your hands roam, play with her breasts, take her hands in your hand, feel her excitement. Now that you have driven her crazy with your teasing it is time to lick a single lick from the very bottom of her to the very tip of her pussy. This single long lick should receive a long slow moan and perhaps her fingers grabbing your hair to show her appreciation. The best thing about going down on a woman is hearing her as you do it. The moans and the groans and the screams are what it is all about. Even when she asks you to stop she probably doesn’t really mean it, getting a woman so excited that she needs to take a break is the greatest feeling in the world. Pushing her to extremes she doesn’t normally feel will make you a fond memory for years to come. +And once you get to open her up and lick her and taste her on your tongue you should be moaning from the taste and the feel of her. This amazing pussy that will soon be housing your cock as you fuck her into the evening. Show your appreciation for all that it does for you and the feelings it brings you. When you are licking and tasting and sucking on her lips do it with the energy of a child going after his favorite candy. Press your face hard as you tongue fuck her, suck with all your might as you tease her clit in your mouth. Make sure you use every single weapon in your arsenal. Use your fingers and your tongue and your lips, make sure you attack her body with so many sensations that she cannot help but come for you, over and over. Slide a finger or two in and out of her pussy as your flick your tongue all over her clit, circling and pressing. Make sure you listen to her as well, if she isn’t as vocal as some she will let you know what she likes with her hands or her moans, pay attention. She will always let you know one way or another. +And the end result of this incredibly fun act is to make her come. It isn’t to warm her up for a fucking, (though you will get that as well) It is to show her that you are willing to give as good as you get. You will know when she is close to coming for you. You will feel her strong legs hold you and kick and spread for you, you will feel her pussy getting ready to reward you and you will hear the moans and groans of a woman on the edge of ultimate pleasure. DONT STOP doing what you are doing, I don’t care if your neck hurts or your hands cramp. For this is the best part, the part where her body totally lets go and comes. A woman’s orgasm is an amazing thing, she can have them one after another and that is what makes them so much fun, if you do this right and do not stop one might turn into two and so on. And you would be surprised how much men don’t really care a woman coming. So when a woman finds one that does care and will put in all the time to make her come, she will be yours. Body and soul. So as you finger and lick and suck and press your face against that wonderful pussy, tasting all she has to offer, don’t stop, keep going. Moan into her and grab her with your hands and hold her as you continue to please her. And don’t you dare stop till she is DONE. +Thank you." +417,How To Live Life…Batteries Included,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-02,2008-05-02,2022-01-04 08:32:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-live-life-batteries-included,Author's suggestions for a Dummy's Guide To Living Life.,"['Birth', 'Directions', 'Grandparents', 'Hospital', 'Instructions', 'Life', 'Living', 'Manual', 'Parents']",3.71,"It's odd that everything we buy comes with instructions, but not us.

I hope you find them helpful and will write me with your own suggestions to add to my instructions for life. +Rule #1 - Save all your money. Stay away from the mall and never accept a free offer for a credit card. The Hell with a rainy day, start saving now and don't spend a dime if you don't have to spend it. +Rule #2 - Never give a dime to someone who wants to borrow your money. You know that you will never see the money that you give this person back. So, why give it to her? Just tell your mother that you are sorry, but you are not a lender or a borrower. Okay, she's your Mom. Loan her the damn money, but charge her market rate interest and make sure she signs over her social security check to you. +Rule #3 - Stop, look, and listen before crossing the street. This is really good advice. Yes, I know you are walking within the crosswalk and there is a traffic light, still, I have to see things with my own two eyes and listen with my own two ears before I know it's safe to cross. Okay, now that I stopped, looked, and listened, it's safe to cross. +""Okay, quick, jump back on the curb. I missed my opportunity to cross the street. The light changed already."" +Rule #4 - If it doesn't smell bad, it's okay to eat...most times. Have you ever been to a foreign country? I mean, a really foreign, like Indonesia and/or Micronesia foreign. I wouldn't eat that. That looks like a big scary fried bug to me. It is a big, scary, fried bug. Don't eat that. Yeah, it's a good idea to bring your own Ritz crackers and a jar of peanut butter with you. +Rule #5 - Don't eat that. Read rule #4 above. Yeah, I know it was free and that you are hungry, but really, don't eat that. It looks bad. +Rule #6 - Don't drink that. Read rule # 5, above that refers you to rule #4. Yeah, I know it was free and you are thirsty, but really, don't drink that. It doesn't look good. +Rule #7 - Don't touch that. That's a live wire. Didn't you read the sign? +Rule #8 - Don't do that. That's really annoying when you snap your gum like that, especially when you click your ball point pen at the same time. It's deafening. +Rule #9 - If you are ashamed to bring her home to meet your parents, then why are you with her? Well, blowjobs aren't everything. What happens after she loses her teeth? Gum jobs. Okay, then, forget rule #9. +Rule #10 - Buckle your seatbelt. As one who has always driven a fast, sporty car and who has tested the airbags a couple times, please wear your seatbelt. You have much better control of the vehicle when taking a corner fast. No, that's silly. You won't be stuck in your seat in a fiery crash and burn to death. You have a greater chance of hitting your head in a low speed crash and/or being thrown from and run over by your own vehicle. +Since we are on the subject, lock your door, too. Why? Because doors are guaranteed not to pop open in case of a crash, so long as they are locked. If left unlocked and you are unbelted, you'll be bouncing along the pavement at 60mph after impact. +Rule #11 - Don't drink and drive. This is only commonsense and goes along with rule #10. You are an average driver at best when sober; don't push your luck by driving intoxicated. +Rule #12 - If you are a man, never wear white socks unless you are playing basketball. Unless Archie Bunker is your idol and you hope to emulate him, it just looks bad, especially with black shoes. +Rule #13 - If you are a woman and don't want to look like Ruth Buzzi from Laugh-in or a homeless bag lady, never wear those half nylons with anything, especially a short skirt or pedal pushers. It just looks nasty. +Rule #14 - Don't smoke. If you haven't started, don't start. If you do smoke, stop now. Please, it's a matter of life and breath. +Rule #15 - Drink and eat in moderation. Here we go with the commonsense again. Do you really need to eat two double cheeseburgers? No one is that hungry. Must you drink a six pack of beer every night? Where did you find a tub of ice cream that large? Tell me that you don't have two more of these in the freezer downstairs. +Rule#16 - Never go to the deli under any circumstance unless it is to buy pickles. There is nothing there you want and everything there will eventually kill you. You're better off chewing on lard. You'll eat less of it. Matter of fact, don't eat any processed foods. +Rule #17 - Don't believe all you read in the newspapers and/or see on television. Again, commonsense is required to read between the lines. Believe it or not, but not everyone has your best interest at heart. There are those who hope to take advantage of you. For those who are blonde, busty, and beautiful, remove all your clothes and I'll explain in depth in the privacy of my bedroom. +Rule #18 - If it sounds too good to be true... Yeah, well, huh? What were you thinking? Did you really think that this dollar a gallon gasoline was anything but water? +Rule #19 - Always wear clean underwear...you never know. Yes, you can live with the embarrassment of hospital emergency rooms, they've seen it all. Besides, you'll be either unconscious or on death's door if not DOA. Yet, what if you were stuck in an elevator with Angelina Jolie and she had just broken up with Brad and was hot and horny for you? +Rule #20 - Always carry a condom...you never know. Read the second part of rule #19 above, that same rule applies to this. +Rule #21 - Keep your friends close and your enemies closer...you never know. This is something that I learned from the Godfather I & II movies. I just thought I'd pass it along. I got my one good eye on you. Don't make me come over there and give you a beatin'. +Rule #22 - Yes. Of course, when saying yes, it depends on the question. +Rule #23 - No. Read rule #22 above. Of course, when saying no, it depends on the question. +Rule #24 - Maybe. Read above rule #23 above that will refer you to rule #22. Of course, when saying maybe, it depends on the question. +Rule #25 - Because I said so. Sometimes, you just have to give in to it. +Rule #26 - Trust your girlfriend, but not with your Ferrari. I love my girlfriend, but I'm the only one who drives my Ferrari. There are just some things that can't be explained. +Rule #27 - Trust your boyfriend, but not with your best friend. Well, yeah, duh? Don't you watch soap operas? Don't you read the tabloids? C'mon, really. Everyone knows this or should know this. Now, you know. So, uhm, do you know where your boyfriend is? +Rule #28 - Real men don't eat quiche or wear plaid. Hey, if you live in Montreal, then I guess it's okay to eat quiche. They like their quiche up there. Yet, unless you are Ralph Lauren standing aboard your 400' yacht, take off the plaid pants and put something else on, but not those to the knee bathing trucks. It's just not right. +Rule #29 - Wear normal bathing trunks and not those stupid things that go down to your knees. See rule #28. There's nothing sexy about those things. +Rule #30 - Call your mother. No, there's nothing wrong. Just call her. She's lonely and she misses you. +Rule #31 - There are exceptions to every rule. Everyone knows that. +Rule #32 - There are no rules. Do you know why that is? I have no damn instructions on how to live my life. You can't have rules if you don't have instructions, I don't care what anyone says. You want rules? Give me instructions on how to play the game first. Yeah! +There we are riddled with confusion not knowing what to do and how to do it, even if we knew what to do and how to do it, we'd still have anxiety. Should we do that or should we do this? What if we choose the wrong one? What if we make a mistake? You don't want to do that. That's a fatal mistake. How can I live life without instructions? +There are those who seek the wisdom of a parent or grandparent. Even then, not all of us had parents, per se. Some of us were orphans. Then, what? What do they do then? Who do they trust to show them the way? They really are all alone and on their own. +There are those who seek the learned knowledge of a medical doctor or psychiatrist. There are those who fall on their knees and pray for the guidance of the Holy Father. There are those who seek comfort in food, a needle or a bottle. None of the above are equipped with instructions. +When we were born there were no instructions. We only had our parents to care for us and tell us what and what not to do. Are those who were born to smarter parents guaranteed a better life? +Yet, here we are the blind following the blind because when our parents were born they didn't receive instructions on how to live their lives either. I'm grateful that batteries were included because, not very mechanical, I wouldn't know how to install them or to change them even, if I had to do that. +Luckily, my girlfriend is very handy around the house. She loves tools. She even has a tool belt. She's not bad to look at either. I'd let her change my batteries any day, if you know what I mean. Actually, I'm not even sure what I meant by that. +Where other women's favorite store is the shoe store, her favorite store is the hardware section of Home Depot. Conversely, I don't even have tools. I have a butter knife and a hammer. If I can't fix whatever is broken with my butter knife, I smash it to pieces with my hammer and buy a new one. Let me tell you, I've smashed one too many televisions, computers, and automobiles. I wish I had instructions. Where are my damn instructions? +Does anyone have instructions? Maybe, if you have a set of instructions, I could make a copy. I mean, we are all human; most of us are, that is. There are some things, most things that would be applicable to me and I could just ignore those things that are applicable to you, especially if you are female. I'd skip the menstrual, prom, pregnancy, gossip, estrogen, and menopause chapters all together. I might peruse the chapter on lesbianism. +Moreover, I'd want American instructions. Foreign instructions wouldn't do me any good, I don't think. Foreigners are well, foreign. Depending where they are from, foreigners are a strange group of Earthlings, especially those from Canada, Australia, and England. Yeah, I know they are almost American because they all speak English or I am almost Canadian, Australian and/or English because we almost speak the same language, but they still talk funny and don't totally think like us or totally like us, for that matter. They'd have a different and more skewed set of instructions than mine. Definitely, they drink way more than I do. +For many of us, it would have been handy to have instructions that we could refer to, especially when times got tough and when we are at the crossroads in our life and don't know which road to take. Yet, there are those of us who don't need any damn instructions. They are the ones who live a charmed life. They think that they know all the answers. +Those are the ones who come to you later in life apologizing for their bad behavior and asking you for your help when the other shoe finally drops and they don't know how to handle life when things don't go as planned. There are those who go through life without a problem. Then, there are those who have too misery piled upon their shoulders. +It's not too late for my daughters. They're 26-years-old, identical twins. By the way, if there are any eligible single men out there, actually, on second thought, maybe this is not a good place to look for a husband for my daughters. Sorry, never mind. +I'd like to write them a book of instructions and this How To story is my beginning of that. Yet, if I wrote my own instructions now for them later, they could add to it and pass it on to their children. I like that idea, finally, someone having some kind of instructions for living life that they could add on to as they lived and pass it along to their survivors. +There are those of you who will say that everything I need to live my life by is in the good book, The Bible. Well, what I say onto thee is that not all of us are religious and not all us read and are students of the good book, The Bible. Further, there are those of us who don't believe in God. +I'm not one of those, I believe in God but am no longer religious since the scandals of the Catholic Church have soured me against them when they failed to take action against those priests who abused children. The Catholic Church thought more about money and how much the subsequent lawsuits would cost them than they did about those poor sexually abused children. +Besides, The Bible hardly reads like a book of instructions. Everything is open for interpretation and everyone derives his or her meaning from reading passages that might mean something to them but not to another. Moreover, The Bible has led many astray. We just have to look at some of those self- righteous ministers and ministries that have fallen to greed and sexual scandals. +The Jews have the Book of Life. I should read that. I'm willing to read anything that will give me a clue as to what the Hell I'm supposed to do because I have no idea, really. I don't even have any tools. +Being born without instructions now explains why so many people have totally screwed up their lives. Being born without instructions explains why there are so many 'How To' books on the market, but which ones do I buy? Which ones do I read? +Wouldn't it be nice if there was a Dummy's Guide To Living Life?" +418,How to Locate Your Lover's G-spot,robertreams,How To,2013-12-31,2013-12-31,2022-01-04 08:32:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-locate-your-lovers-g-spot,...and properly stimulate it.,"['Female Ejaculation', 'Female Prostate', 'G-Spot', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",4.51,"First, you must know how to locate and stimulate your lover's clitoris. If you have not quite gotten this far in your sexual education, I will here provide a quick review. +The clitoris is much easier to locate if your lover is already sexually excited. If you do not know how to sexually excite your lover at all, I probably cannot help you. +Basically, your lover's external pussy consists of two layers of 'lips'. The outer lips (labia majora) are thick and covered with hair. On young women and those with little or no sexual experience, the inner, second layer of 'lips' (labia minora) may not be at all visible unless the outer lips are spread, or the woman reaches a certain level of excitement, or both. +Many factors can affect the look and feel and elasticity of these two sets of lips: a woman's age, her level of sexual activity, her level of sexual excitement; one or more pregnancies and deliveries, to name a few. The inner lips of her pussy may range from totally un-visible, to protruding several inches outside the inner lips. These inner lips are often darker in color and more wrinkled in appearance. They also fill with blood and darken with the rise in sexual stimulation. Excellent photos and Illustrations of the organs and structures of a woman's body pertinent to this discussion can be found on Wikipedia. +At the upper extremity of the inner. or minor,lips, there is a tight flap of tissue commonly called the clitoral hood, I usually refer to this structure as the female foreskin, for when it is retracted it exposes the tiny head of the clitoris. This organ, the clitoris, can vary as widely in size as the male penis. It can also increase in size by the type and amount of stimulation it receives. At the beginning of her sexual life, a woman's clitoris may appear very tiny and be extremely sensitive, even painful if manipulated roughly. (somewhat like the head of the male penis, but even more sensitive) In the same way that a male penis head becomes desensitized through the mutilation of circumcision and years of exposure to the rough texture of clothing, the female clitoris may become less sensitive through use. In many countries, it is common to also desensitize female clitorises through the ritual mutilation of circumcision. Like the penis head, the clitoris can be somewhat desensitized by constant or frequent stimulation. This can be a good thing because many women report their clits are simply too sensitive for prolonged, continuous or rough contact. However, through years of stimulation, the clit can be desensitized and may often become larger overall, the visible portion even measuring up to one or even one-and-one half inches in length in some cases. +What is important is that what most people perceive to be the clitoris is merely the external head of the clit, the body of which extends into the inner vaginal wall. This organ's inner and outer portions grow and fill with blood during arousal, much like the male penis. This fact is very important and may be the reason why many women report strong clitoral orgasms, even through only intercourse. +For the proper location and stimulation of the G-spot, or female prostate, it is important that proper stimulation with fingers, lips, tongue and even facial hair first be applied to and around the clitoris. Much lubrication is required! For me, saliva works best. The man (or other lover) will know when the clit and g-spot are being successfully stimulated because the fluid emanating from the woman will be vastly increased. +The point that should be thoroughly stimulated for maximum g-spot arousal is immediately inside the vagina, behind the clitoris and urethra. Stimulation of this area should at first be approached very cautiously. The woman may report what she feels as a strong need to urinate. This is because several glands which ejaculate their contents during g-spot orgasm discharge their fluids through the urethra, and because the entire area fills with blood during intense arousal, which puts additional pressure on the urethra. +Now as to technique. +For starters, hold your palm up in front of you. Flex your middle finger. Now see if you can touch the base of your lifeline, (the crease which runs around the muscular base of your thumb) with the tip of your middle finger. This is basically the movement you will need to stimulate the g-spot. With the middle or middle two fingers inserted in your lover's vagina (depending upon her size and level of arousal) try to tap the base of your thumb with your fingers. I find this motion wonderfully easy when I lie beside her and kiss her. +If you arrange your position correctly, and practice, you can become deft at rubbing your lover's clitoris with the base of your thumb and her g-spot and the (by now, hopefully swollen) inside portion of her clitoris with your finger(s). The motion should be basically the action of one hand clapping. Once her juices really begin to flow, you can hold your fingers tight on the swollen spot within her, the base of your hand tight on her exterior clit and slide repeatedly upward as if trying to lift her by a handle, squeezing and lifting simultaneously. +Do not be surprised if your lover squirts copious amounts of fluid all over your wrist and forearm at about this point, but do not stop this motion until she begs you to. Once she begins to ejaculate, it is a great time to enter her with your penis or dildo; she will never be hotter or readier. If you practice all these moves together, her g-spot will learn to grow and swell so that if you position yourselves properly, you will be able to repeatedly bump her g-spot with the head of your penis (or dildo), providing clitoral, vaginal and g-spot stimulation all at once, rewarding yourself with wet thighs, belly and balls. For those women whose breasts play an important role, stimulation can be provided in that area at the same time +One caution. The fluid she ejaculates may have a faint, or even a strong odor of urine, may even contain small amounts of urine, (It is after all, being discharged through her urethra which leads from her bladder.), her ejaculate will almost certainly contain a certain amount of a chemical also contained in urine. Also, it is not uncommon for contractions during g-spot orgasms to be so strong that evacuation of he bladder and/or rectum may actually occur in some individuals. But what the heck? Don't you want her to cum so hard she. . . well, you get the idea. +If your lover is very young, and/or very inexperienced sexually, it may take a very long time for you to acclimate to each other. Communication is the key. I do not suggest that you try these procedures on a one-night-stand you have never or scarcely met. The response from those who do not know or trust you may be one of dislike or even terror. Care and caution and tenderness are called for to develop the necessary trust she needs to allow you to manipulate her body in a way that may seem strange to her and a bit frightening. +There may be women out there who can stimulate their own g-spots, but I have never met one. It may be nearly as difficult for a woman to reach the proper spots from her angle as it is for a man to give himself a blow job. Hoorah for togetherness. +It should be noted that once a woman learns how to ejaculate, she may be able to do so, from one or two fingers touching the proper places within her, while your tongue and lips stimulate her clit. If you reach this level of trust and intimacy, you may be rewarded by your woman ejaculating in your face, a rare treat! +However, if you follow these directions, I guarantee that when you find the proper spot and learn to apply the proper pressure, you will both know immediately. Chances are good she will make a sound she has never, or rarely made before. Chances are also good that her response time from zero to orgasm, even ejaculation, will be greatly reduced, +The added advantage to this, basically sensitization of your lover's female prostate, is that even if you are a quick shooter, you can bring her to several orgasms before you lose it. How to train yourself not to be a quick shooter, may be the topic of a future how-to article. +Gains made in sexual response from g-spot manipulation seem to be permanent. The area will respond by growing more sensitive and by a larger area becoming responsive. I know at least one woman whose response to stimulation of the g-spot area has caused her sensitive area to grow to approximately three square inches, making it all the more easy to bring her to g-spot ejaculations. +In summary, The g-spot, or female prostate, is located behind the clitoris, inside your lover's vagina. Several glands there, Skein's gland and Bertholin's gland, for example, discharge their contents through the para urethral glands during the phenomenon of female ejaculation. +Many scientists and other doubters claim these structures and responses do not exist. To them I say: something squirts out of women under certain reproducable conditions. Whatever it is that is ejaculated, it is accompanied by intense contractions and extreme orgasms. The phenomenon can be repeated almost indefinately, with copious amounts of ejaculate reported on each subsequent orgasm. +Other scientists have abandoned older terms and have decided to use the term, 'female prostate' to describe an organ they believe truly exists. +Let us assume, for the sake of argument only, that these extreme contractions and orgasms are not female ejaculations, but actually are causing the woman to piss herself. I say, ""oh well, she orgasmed so hard she pissed herself."" This is terrible? I don't think so! +Above all, caring, loving caresses before, during and after. Loving kisses, loving and tender touches are called for. Remember, the primary sex organ is the brain. Love, trust, and communication are the keys." +419,How To Lose Weight and Keep It Off,PositiveThinker,How To,2009-12-26,2009-12-26,2022-01-04 08:32:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-lose-weight-and-keep-it-off,The no secret way to lose weight and keep it off.,"['Diet', 'Exercise', 'Jogging', ""New Year'S Resolution"", 'Nutrition', 'Steroids', 'Walking', 'Weight Loss']",4.06,"Merry Christmas. This is my gift to you dear reader for reading my stories. For those of you who need it, this is my free guaranteed plan to help you not only lose weight but to keep it off and get healthier, while doing it. +It's that time of year when all of us make our New Year's resolutions that we quickly forget, once we get over our hangover. Before we made our resolutions to lose weight and keep it off, we thought it important enough to make the promises to ourselves being that it is the one thing we named, as something that we'd like to accomplish. Only, by the number of diet books sold in this country, too many people don't know how to lose weight and keep it off, and the ones who know how to lose weight and keep it off fail. Instead of sticking to their weight loss plans, they end up hibernating and grazing throughout the winter and when spring arrives, they are 20 pounds or more heavier. +It's good to have a goal. I commend you for wanting to take control of your weight issues. It's important to want to improve ourselves. Yet, sometimes too lofty of a goal is a self-defeating prophesy. If you think you're going to lose all the weight you need to loose in a few short months, before the good weather arrives, so that you can hit the beach by the summer, unless you only have ten to twenty pounds to lose, then you're doomed for failure. You aren't being realistic. +If you're a couch potato, a person who's never been athletic, active even, didn't play a sport in high school or college, never did anything competitive, rethink the amount of weight you want to lose and then lengthen the time period you'll need to lose it. If you've never done a pushup, pull up, or a sit up, never jogged, or rode a bike for any extended length of time, or maintained any fitness plan over a length of time that improved your aerobic conditioning, what makes you seriously think you're going to do a complete 360 and do that now? Let me burst your bubble for you now before you become depressed later and eat more and gain even more weight. +""It won't happen. You won't last a week exercising. Sorry."" +Yet, don't fret. I didn't write this how to story to discourage you from losing weight and keeping it off, I wrote it to help you. Wait. Don't go. Get back here. See? You're giving up already, before I even told you the good news, and there is good news. There is light at the end of the tunnel. There is a rainbow with your name on it. This is your lucky day. Are you ready? This weight loss plan is for you. +If you're the type of person who has never seriously worked out, don't despair. Don't overwhelm yourself by dwelling on the whole. Think of one thing and one goal. Take a breath and relax. Feel better? +Of course, you should always check with your doctor first before you begin an exercise plan. Also, when you are exercising and feel dizzy, nauseous, have chest pain or numbness, stop and seek emergency medical care. Excessive eating and lack of exercise is what got you in this unhealthy condition and moderation and exercise is what will change your life for the better. +Here goes. Once someone like you starts working out, someone who has never exercised before, the weight drops faster and the muscle goes on quicker. Yes, I know, you're a woman and don't want muscles. Don't worry. You can't get muscles in the way that a man can, unless you've been taking testosterone supplements from the men's aisle in a health store. Besides, those things don't work anyway. Only a doctor's prescription is safe and effective to take and only illegal steroids can make you look like those monstrous female bodybuilders you see on television. +This is my foolproof formula over a realistic time period to not only help you to lose the weight but also to keep it off and make yourself not only healthier but also look better. Think back and remember yourself before you were heavy. How long did it take for you to put all that weight on is twice the amount of time it will take for you to take it off. I know, it's discouraging when you think about it in those terms. Unfortunately, there is no magic pill to shed the pounds and nothing in life that is worthwhile is easy, so true. +There is a shortcut, however, and one that works, only it's not easy. Like everything else in life in takes hard work, dedication, perseverance, and a determined effort. How badly you want it is your personal barometer measuring your success or failure. +Yeah, sure, your personal trainer will tell you differently. He or she will tell you that you'll look like a different person in whatever amount of time he or she knows will keep you coming back to him or her. Only, your personal trainer is paid by you to tell you what you want to hear. Besides, he or she is not with you 24/7 when you're gulping down two donuts for breakfast, MacDonald's for lunch, and pizza for dinner with an ice cream, cookie, and a potato chip chaser, as a snack later. C'mon, get real. Yet, relax, as I mentioned before, there is a shortcut, though and one that works, only it's not easy. +I've worked out all my life and because of all that I've done, I've maintained my weight. Don't hate me, but I take the same size clothes that I took after I graduated high school. I know. My friends that I bump into after 30 years tell me the same thing. +""You look the same. You look amazing. How do you do it?"" +My wife who had been overeating because of childhood emotional issues had gained an enormous amount of weight. By her doctor's definition and body mass index charts, she was considered morbidly obese. With my help, she lost 90 pounds in a year and a half and ten years later has kept it off. +You notice that I didn't write overnight or in 90 days or 6 weeks, as some of these miracle diets and exercise plans promise you. Unless you're a contestant on Survivor or a cancer victim, you can't lose that kind of weight that fast and still remain healthy. If you really believe that you can lose weight fast, as too many diets purport, I have a used car to sell you with low mileage that my elderly aunt only drove to pick up her mail at the end of the driveway, once a week. +So, how did I do it, maintain my weight? This isn't about me. It's about you. How can you do it, lose weight and keep off the weight that you lose? +First, is your diet. Forget about diets and dieting. Do not diet. Diets don't work. Today is the day that we're going to eat with our heads, instead of our emotions. Remove the diet word from your vocabulary. This is what you want to do instead. +Write down all that you eat on a daily basis for a week and be honest. If there's an empty calorie, remove it. Ice cream, cookies, candy, and potato chips are examples of empty calorie foods that make you fat and tired. Replace some of the carbohydrates and empty calories with vegetables and fruits. When you eat, have normal servings, human sized, not animal sized. You're older now, you don't need all that food just to slouch on the couch. Trust me, one banana is enough to keep your eyes open and you coherent. +If there is something that you're eating every day, such as a candy bar or a donut, there's an easy ten pounds in the course of a year that you will lose just by eliminating that one item. Only, I know, you're addicted to your Bavarian crème donut and Chunky candy bar. Only, now is the time to make the choice. Do you want to look and feel better or do you want to continue down the road that will surely take you to your early grave? +Now, repeat after me. Never, is when you eat donuts, bagels loaded with cream cheese, salads floating in salad dressing, fast foods, pizza, Chinese food, and supersized burgers and fries. Those foods are poison. You are what you eat and those foods will kill you. Jack La Lanne said fifty years ago, you don't want to eat any processed foods, anything that man made. Your best bet is colorful and leaner foods, fruits and vegetables with fish and chicken. +Go to bed hungry. Eat smaller meals. Snack during the day. Rather than eating one big meal at the end of the day and sitting on the couch, before going to bed, only have enough food to remove your hunger. Eat slower. Chew your food more. All these things will trick your mind and your stomach into thinking that you've have more food than you've actually eaten. +If you are dumb enough to still be smoking after all the information about how unhealthy, deadly actually, smoking is for you, don't even bother reading the rest of this story. Just go outside and have another cigarette with a pack or Ring Dings. There's no hope for you. Quitting smoking is the number one thing you can do to not only improve the quality of your life but also to save it. For that matter, you shouldn't even be drinking alcohol, but let's just concentrate on one thing at a time. Okay? +Let me ask you a simple question. What do you do every day, without missing a day, and without giving it any thought? You breath, you sleep, you eat, and you go to the bathroom. Right? Hopefully, you shower and brush your teeth, too. Some of you work, as well. There is one more thing that you must add to your daily routine and that is as important as breathing, sleeping, eating, and going to the bathroom, and that's exercising. +Wait! I know I said a bad word for some of you, exercise, but before you stop reading, just read a few more paragraphs. I promise not to give you a full routine of exercises with repetitions and sets that you won't do. Let's not call it exercise. Let's call it activity. It doesn't matter what kind of activity you do, so long as you do something, anything. +Pick one thing. What do you like to do? C'mon, be serious. Sex is not exercise, per se. Are you a walker? Jogger? Bike rider? Rope jumper? Stair climber? Swimmer? Roller skater? What? they even have that Wii game with workout DVD's. Maybe you or your kids got one for Christmas. There are a lot of fun things that you can do with that game that you can do to burn calories and get you off the couch and moving, while having fun at the same time. Just pick one thing that you enjoy doing and that you know you will continue doing. That is your key to success to burning calories and replacing fat with muscle. +Never mind what the other woman or man does for a workout routine. Chances are they are exaggerating what they do to serve a boastful need of who they think they are or need to be and are just saying that to make you feel bad about yourself. Don't listen to them. They are evil. They are your enemy. Now, make them your motivation to succeed. Besides, whatever it is that they do, may work for them but may not work for you. Got it? +Before I suggest those things that you can do to lose weight and keep it off, allow me to tell you what not to do. This is what you don't want to do. Do not join a gym, especially if you've never joined a gym before. For those who have never been to a gym, it's a scary place with devotees to the muscle God and Goddess. Some of these people are truly nuts, the machines they use are scary, and the weights they lift are insane. +Chances are you will hurt yourself the first day and never return. All of that put together will make you depressed and want to quit trying to lose weight and eat. I wouldn't blame you. It's all so overwhelming and impossibly difficult to wrap your head around. It's too much of a shocking change to your routine. Keep it simple and keep it fun. +The gym is a wonderful place if you can handle it, but it's not for you. Trust me. With your new workout bag and clean clothes, most of you will go once or twice to the gym and never go again and now you're stuck with a gym membership fee that you signed for a year. Do not go out and spend money on a piece of gym equipment for your home that will sit in the corner and remind you of what a loser and quitter you are. Don't do that to yourself. You're a better person than that. +Besides all of that, by not going to the gym, you won't have to drive your car to the gym, change your clothes in front of a locker, exercise, shower, get dressed, and drive home. It's too much trouble. There is an easier way and the reason why I wrote this how to story to tell you. +Do something cheap. Do something that you like to do and will continue to do anyway. Do something that you'll stick with. I've always been a walker. I have long legs and can walk very fast. Fortunately, I have a dog who loves to walk, too, run actually, but I've never been a runner. If you are a very heavy person with a lot of weight to lose, running and jogging is not for you. You need something more low impact, such as swimming or riding a stationary bike. +I always preferred skipping rope. By the way, there is a new jump rope out there that doesn't have a rope, a ropeless jump rope. It cost around $39 and it's great. I love mine. +Just as I know people who love to endlessly walk the mall, I know people who jump in place in the privacy of their bathrooms every day. Then, there are those people who do pushups, pull ups, and crunches every day in their homes. That's their preferred method of moving and getting healthier. It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you do something. The key is to do something that you enjoy doing, Palates for an example, because if you don't mind doing it, if you enjoy doing it, chances are you'll continue doing it. +Anyway, when I got my dog, he was a puppy and because he is a high energy type of dog, I couldn't exercise this dog enough. He made me walk faster and faster, until I was speed walking him. I actually had to buy a vest and put a five pound weight on each side of him to slow him down and take the edge off. Yet, in doing all this walking I discovered something. +Even with all the exercise plans I've had throughout my life with all the pushup, pull ups, crunches, and weights that I've lifted, I discovered that I was getting an aerobic benefit, just from walking, albeit walking very fast, something I figured that I could only get from marathon running or bike riding the planet or swimming Olympic pool laps, which I hate doing all those things with a passion. Boring. I'm not runner, biker, or swimmer. I don't have the time. +Since I was out walking my dog anyway, I walked every day, three times a day. It was good that I had a dog by my side, so that I didn't look like a pervert walking and stalking the neighborhood. Also, it was good that I lived in the shadow of a mountain and had a very long one and a half mile, flat, stretch of sidewalk road to walk to the base of the mountain and back to my house. Perfect, 3 miles a day, three times a day. Yeah, I know, that's too much for most people, but I was fairly fit before I started this adventure and my chosen method of exercise was walking. +You do what you can, whatever it is, so long as you get your ass off the couch. This isn't a competition nor is it rocket science. Eat less, move more. This is the quality of your life. This is about you. You only have one life to live and who wants to live it walking with a cane and complaining about aches and pains, while you're still young enough to enjoy a more active lifestyle. If you have a choice and now you do because I'm telling you how to do it and it won't cost you a dime, just your time, why not do it. +Walk. Start slow, but walk. Forget about carrying weights in your hand. Knowing how clumsy you are, you'll trip, drop a weight on your foot and break it, which will stop you from walking and will relegate you to eating, while lying on your couch recovering. Just walk. That's the least that you can do for yourself. Only, don't meander. Walk at a brisk pace, one where you can still hold a conversation. Walk with a friend. You don't have to walk alone, just as walking doesn't have to be a mindless activity. Learn a foreign language while walking by playing a tape or CD in your Sony. +After you've been walking for a week, seeing everything in the neighborhood that you never noticed before from your car window, while sipping your coffee and talking on your cell phone, walk longer and a little faster the second week. By the time you've been out walking for a month or two, I want you to walk so far and so fast that you'll think you are the walking champion of the world. Yeah, go ahead, it will do your heart good to jump up in down with your arms raised over your head, as Rocky Balboa did in Rocky. +Listen, it's no excuse if it's cold, raining, snowing, whatever. There are lightweight, warm, waterproof clothes you can buy to keep you dry and warm and there are ice cleats for your shoes to keep you from slipping and falling. Just walk or pick a backup exercise, something that you can do indoors whenever the weather is bad. Instead of walking outside, you can jump rope with a ropeless jump rope, ride a stationary bike, or walk on a treadmill. Just get off your ass and move. It doesn't matter what you do, so long as you do it. +Don't like to walk? Pick something else and follow the same principle, whether its riding a bike, rollerblading, ice skating, swimming or even jumping up and down in place. Do something other than sitting on your ass. +Now, that you've mastered the one thing you've picked is the time you add some resistance training to your workouts. Go out and buy a set of dumbbells. Start light. A set that has 5, 10 and 20 pound dumbbells is perfect. Most dumbbell sets will come with a chart to tell you which exercises to do and how to do them. If it doesn't come with instructions, then this is what you want to do with them, every other day. The dumbbell workout will only take you 15 minutes and I guarantee you that you will see phenomenal results in a very short time, within weeks, especially if you've never done any weight resistance exercises or if it's been years since you did any. +Do arm curls for your biceps, shoulder presses and lateral raises from the side and then lateral raises from the front for your shoulders. Do some reverse curls for your triceps or French presses Squat down and up while holding the heaviest dumbbells. While lying on a flat surface a bench or a chair that can support your back do some bench presses. If you have never done any of these and don't know what they are or how to do them, Google the exercise. They are all online with photos and explanations. +Oh, I almost forgot. There is one more thing that you must do, but only if you are a female. This is a very important part of your weight loss program. Send me a naked photo of yourself before you start my program and another one after you've lost the weight you wanted to lose. I just, uhm, want to see something, I mean, of course, monitor your progress. +Good luck, skinny." +420,How to Lose Weight Effectively,Bakeboss,How To,2009-09-19,2009-09-19,2022-01-04 08:32:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-lose-weight-effectively,A personal guide to weight loss.,"['Losing Weight', 'Weight Loss']",4.43,"First off, let me say I am not a qualified dietitian and I have no formal training in this field at all. Everything I am saying is found through personal trails and errors only. The only reason I am writing this is that I know there are many people who have a problem with weight gain just as I do. +There is no secret to losing weight, no special pill, no secret food that sheds pounds and not even surgery will work for permanent weight loss. Let me say it now before I get all the nasty letters, the various surgeries for weight losses seem to work at first. I mean it makes sense that if your stomach is now smaller you will eat less and get full faster. The problem comes from not changing your life style. If you are use to eating until you are stuffed then every time you stuff yourself you will stretch your stomach a little bit more and before long, you are right back where you started. Losing weight has to begin with a lifestyle change and just like most goals it takes commitment. You have to decide that you want to be slimmer more than you want that slice of chocolate cake. +Once you make that decision to be a healthy slimmer you, the rest comes down to simple mathematics. Every time you burn off 3500 more calories than you consume you lose one pound. You can do this by eating less or exercising more or by what I feel is the best way a combination of the two. It doesn't take a math genius to see if you just cut 500 calories (one Big Mac is 540 calories) per day from your diet you could easily lose one pound per week. Now if you included something like an hour a day riding your bike (that is 300 calories per 26 minutes of vigorous pedaling) you could easily make that two pounds per week. OK so you don't have the time or maybe the energy to pedal hard for an hour a day, then just do a half-hour and eat 1000 calories less than you do now. Does all this sound to simplistic? Yeah it probably is but that is the basic rule for losing weight. Still all things being equal, if you just followed those two things you would lose eight pounds a month. Let's say you started in January by summer you could be down fifty pounds with a waist that is five inches slimmer. +I personally have been on a diet and lifestyle change for over nine months now. I have managed to lose over seventy pounds and almost ten inches off my waist. I know I look better and my wife agrees with me but what is even more rewarding is I feel so much better. I'm even sleeping better now that I don't have that big belly to try to sleep around. One other reward that I just noticed the other day is I no longer need antacids. I found myself suffering from heartburn almost every day and I was taking something before bedtime or I would suffer the consequences. +Allow me to include a few hints I have discovered along the way. Do not, I repeat do not weigh yourself every day. There are too many dally variables for accurate recording to allow you to weigh daily. If you just happen to have a meal with too much salt in it, you can throw off the scale by a couple of pounds with water retention alone. Once a week is plenty and if you want, twice but do not weigh yourself more than three times a week. Many people don't believe in using a scale ever, just letting their clothes tell them where they are. Personally, I find it rewarding to see that scale drop as you get on it. Water is very important in all weight loss regimens. You need to drink at least eighty ounces of water per day. Unbelievably drinking extra water helps you from retaining water and it flushes the ketones (basically the ash left from consuming calories). I fill five one-liter bottles with water every day and I have found that it is much easier to drink and easier to keep track that way. As far as exercise, I would advise joining a gym just because there is more equipment and therefore more diversity. However if you don't wish to go that way, there is plenty of exercises you can do at home. There must be a hundred websites with both home and gym exercise tips on them. Cardio exercise is the most important as you need to raise your heart rate in order to burn more calories. Strength training is also very helpful in weight loss as muscle burns calories faster than fat. +Another thing to keep in mind is that we are all human and eventually we will slide off the wagon. A party or a night on the town it doesn't really matter what causes it. The thing is you have to keep the faith so to speak, if you have a wild weekend and eat and or drink too much come Monday you have to get back on that wagon. As I have said, this is a lifestyle change but it is still a life. There will be times when you will need or simply want to overindulge, just remember it is OK as long as you go back to your routine. +Well I hope my ramblings will help someone make the commitment to take that first step so to speak. The one thing that helps is that when you start you will lose weight faster than at any other time on your diet. Although most of this loss is just water it is still encouraging to a new dieter. So here is to your new lifestyle and your new look and believe me, I know you will enjoy it." +421,How To Lose Weight Fast,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-19,2008-05-19,2022-01-04 08:32:27,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-lose-weight-fast,Freddie shares his quick weight lose program with you.,"['Confidence', 'Diabetes', 'Diet', 'Exercise', 'Obese', 'Overweight', 'Self- Esteem', 'Self-Help', 'Skinny', 'Weight Loss']",4.33,"So, you want to lose weight? How much weight do you want to lose? C'mon, it's just the two of us. Whisper it in my ear. Wow! Seriously? That much? How the Hell much do you weigh now and how did you get that heavy? Never mind. I don't want to know. Besides, it doesn't really matter how much you weigh because I can help you to lose every pound that you want to lose. +How to lose weight fast? Now that I have your attention, I've pretty much cornered a good section of the fad diet programs and self-help books on the market with this story haven't I? Seriously though, what about my name, Bostonfictionwriter, did you not understand? I'm from Boston and I write fiction. Did you seriously believe that I could help you lose weight fast? +Wait; don't leave just yet because, actually, I think that I can help you. Let's start with a bit of commonsense first. You need to ask yourself two questions. How did I gain this weight? Yes, obviously by overeating food. Then, ask yourself why you want to lose the weight you gained? +Seriously, these are important self-help questions that you must honestly answer. It is important that you write down your answers. You need not share your answers with the rest of us, but by the mere fact of writing the reasons down on paper that you can review from time to time will give it more importance in your mind. You will never succeed losing the weight and keeping the weight off unless you first identify the reasons not only why you gained the weight in the first place but also why you want to lose it now. Think about it. It makes sense. +First let's ponder why we gained the weight in the first place. +Did you gain the weight from overeating? Did you gain the weight from lack of exercise? Did you gain the weight in a combination of overeating and lack of exercise? +Why did you feel the need to overeat and/or not exercise? What happened that suddenly changed your eating and/or workout habits? Was it medication you were prescribed and taking? Do you think you may have a medical condition that caused you to gain weight? Perhaps, your thyroid is the medical condition that suddenly made you gain all the weight. Let's rule that out first by having a medical exam. Never should you embark on a weight loss and/or exercise problem without first consulting your doctor. +Yes, I know, you are big boned. You have bones that are as heavy as the bones of a brontosaurus. If it wasn't for your big bones, huge bones actually, you'd weigh next to nothing and would be a size 4 instead of a size 20. Only, if you are going to continue to kid yourself as to all the reasons why you are overweight, then you will never lose the weight. You will always find an excuse to deceive yourself into failing, eating more food, and gaining more weight. +For those of you who have never seriously worked out, first get an okay from your doctor that you are healthy enough to exercise. The good news is that if you have never worked out before, once you get over the soreness, stiffness, and pain (lol), you will be amazed with the immediate results. Those who have never worked out before will receive faster and more pronounced benefits than someone like me who has been working out since (good God am I really that freaking old) 1963. +By the way, as an aside, for all of those gym owners and personal trainers who continue to send me all those wonderful expletive filled e-mails that I don't know what I'm writing about, I worked in a few gyms in my younger years teaching people how to lift weights and how to exercise. Then, as a semi-pro boxer, I taught disadvantaged kids from my neighborhood how to box and how to train for a fight. +Moreover, I've worked out for 45 years and anyone who knows me and/or has seen my photo knows that I'm muscular and in good condition for an old guy (cough, hack, gasp, wheeze). I used to workout with Victor Rivera a professional wrestler from the 60's who fought Bruno Sammartino for the championship and I sparred with Bob Urich of Spencer for Hire fame back in the 80's when he was making his television series with Robert Parker. +Did some emotional trauma happen in your life now or was it an emotional trauma that happened in your past that you are now reliving subconsciously and that has manifested in you overeating and/or not exercising? Do you think it would help if you talked with a professional? Have you tried hypnosis? It does work for some people. +Now, let's consider why you want to lose the weight you gained. +Is it just a public perception issue? Do you believe that by losing weight that the weight loss will make you feel better about yourself by giving you more confidence and lifting up your self-esteem? That's so interesting. So, is it safe to assume that you feel bad about yourself now? Have you considered that how you feel about yourself now is more than just a weight issue and that even if you lost the weight, you would still feel bad about yourself? +Moreover, have you considered that your negative thoughts relating to your body image manifests itself in more eating and increased weight gain? Do you think relaxation and meditation exercises will help to change your thoughts from negative to positive, thereby helping you to eat less? It's a vicious cycle that you've created for yourself. Hey, don't get mad at me, I'm just trying to help you. Put the frying pan down. You could kill someone with that thing. +Do you want to feel more desirable and be more attractive to the opposite sex? If you are a guy, are you hoping to get lucky? Gees, sorry, I didn't know you were a virgin. You'll have to read my story on how to get laid, but I haven't written that one, yet. +If you are a woman are you hoping to find the right guy and get married and have kids? See? Why is it that women are way better than men? Men just want to get laid and have sex with as many women as we can, whereas women want to settle down with one special guy, have a family, and get started with the more important things in life, such as buying a house, going shopping and accumulating credit card debt, and nagging her husband so much that he wishes he was dead (kidding). +Are you unhealthy, morbidly obese and/or have high blood pressure and/or diabetes? Yes, I truly understand that unless you change your behavior and modify what you eat and how much you eat of it, you will die. That's not good. Hey, I need all the fans that are going to give me a vote of 5 as I can get. I don't want my audience dying. I have a vested interest in not only helping you to lose the weight but also in enabling you to live longer so that you can give me more 5 votes. It's a win/win scenario for both of us. +Well, unless you must lose weight for medical reasons, I wouldn't make yourself miserable about not being thinner. Being thin isn't everything that it's cracked up to be. Think about and consider all the other good things about yourself. You have a lot of good qualities. I love your eyes by the way. Hey, I like you. You gave me a 5 vote for this story. How could I not like you no matter how much you weigh? +Besides if someone can't see beyond the body image, then a romantic relationship will never work. You're smart, sensitive, kind, and a good dancer, too; wouldn't you want those same qualities in your lover? Why settle for someone who is so shallow that he or she just wants the wrapper without delving into and exploring the dough (no pun intended)? I've seen way many more skinny bitches than I have fat witches. Oh, I see you are just as shallow as are your thin counterparts and you want someone as good looking as you think you are not. Now, I understand. Houston, we have a problem. +Seriously, though, I've known some people who were overweight all their lives and many of them were healthier than me. Not everyone is genetically blessed or cursed and going to be as skinny as Paris Hilton (and who wants to be that unhealthy thin), just as not everyone can safely carry excess weight around. Hey, if you ask me, Paris is so skinny that it makes her nose look bigger, but that's just my opinion. I really don't even like the dumb broad. Moreover, I've known many overweight women who are way better looking than Paris Hilton, not that she's any measure of beauty. +I've worked out with weights and aerobic conditioning all my life. Yet, I'm a 26.5 on the BMI, body mass index and by all the life insurance charts, I'm 50 pounds overweight. Are you kidding me? If I lost 50 pounds my friends would think I was dying of cancer. +I'm perfectly healthy at my weight, according to my most recent blood work. I do feel a bit tired though (cough), maybe I'm coming down with something. Nurse! I need a nurse to check my hard-on, I mean heart. I know bodybuilders who are a 30 on the BMI scale and they are unbelievably healthy. Muscle weighs more than fat. So throw your scale away. Bodyweight is not always a sure sign of how healthy you are. +Listen, if you are serious about losing weight, in principal it's easy to do but in reality, losing weight is just as difficult as trying to stop smoking, which by the way if you smoke, you are crazy not to quit. Anyone can lose a quick 5 or 10 pounds, depending upon the percentage of weight loss to your present weight. Yet, if you are serious about losing 30 pounds or more, it took you months to gain that weight and it will take months to lose that weight. Give yourself realistic goals that you can achieve and not make yourself feel bad by failing to reach unrealistic goals. Losing one to two pounds a week is a good goal to have. +Below are listed my four simple and guaranteed ways to lose weight. +1\. Eat less +2\. Move more +3\. Buy bigger clothes +4\. Send me a nude photo of yourself (women only, please) +1\. Eat less -- Make better choices with your caloric intact. I've never heard of any diet that is successful by starving yourself. When you deny your body food, you may lose weight in the beginning but eventually you'll gain it all back and more. +This is what to do instead. Eat natural foods whenever you can and avoid eating man made foods and fast foods. Eat fruits and vegetables instead of donuts and muffins. I've come to the point that I'd rather eat an apple, orange or a banana than that chocolate Bavarian cream donut that looks so delicious that it makes my mouth water more than this freaking banana does. +Yet, sometimes when I crave a chocolate Bavarian cream donut, I won't deny myself that and will have something similar to it but not as fattening. Never will you ever see me eating a tub of ice cream, a sleeve of cookies or a bag of potato chips in one sitting. Now, if you eat in such a way as that, then you have other issues that must be resolved by discussing them with a mental health professional before you can successfully lose weight with only diet and exercise. Truly, no one is that hungry. +2\. Move more -- Yes, I know you are really heavy and your feet and knees hurt but walk more. First of all, forget about style, buy a better pair of shoes, ones that are as supportive as they are padded, so that you can walk comfortably without pain. Look, it's a nice day, the sun is shining, and the birds are singing. Go for a walk. Instead of parking your car in the handicap zone, park your car across the parking lot and walk. That's a start. +Believe me walking will make you lose weight. My wife lost 100 pounds just by going for a walk after dinner. We'd walk for an hour or so every night and we did that for eighteen months. Yeah, she was hit by a car but...kidding. +It's amazing that she lost that much weight not by joining a gym, not by working out hours every day, and not by starving herself but just by walking and changing her eating behavior and making better food choices. Besides, we talked as we walked and grew closer while doing that. +3\. Buy bigger clothes -- I know it sounds ridiculous but not as ridiculous as you look trying to squeeze yourself in those tight jeans. You'd look thinner and shapelier if you bought a bigger size. We all have a favorite outfit, something that makes us look good and feel good, real good. Well, buy more of those look good and feel good clothes instead of the clothes that make you feel and look fat. +Wearing those too tight jeans are self-defeating and indeed, as soon as you pass by a mirror in the mall, the sudden realization of how bad you look will cause you to have negative thoughts about yourself and those thoughts will make you depressed and make you want to eat more. +You want to sooth your soul as much as you want to loose some weight. Whenever I put on a pair of jeans that I can no longer button, I wear something else. Not only do I immediately feel better about myself but also I feel more comfortable and skinny even, now that my stomach is not bursting out the sides of my jeans. +4\. Send me a nude photo of yourself (women only) -- Think of me as you would your doctor. Yes, that's right; you may call me Doctor Freddie. Hey, I'm here to help you, but unless I see how severe the weight problem is, then I can't diagnose your problem and draw up a weight loss plan specifically for you. For those who are embarrassed having me ogle, I mean view your naked photos you may leave on your hat and shoes. +Actually, all you need to send me is a photo of your face and tits. I can tell so much by just staring, I mean seeing your face and breasts. You have no idea the things that I can imagine, I mean see. +As soon as I see your nude photo, for those who I feel that I can help by delving deeper in the problem, I will send you my telephone number and we can discuss your weight loss in depth and in a more comfortable position and private location with our first face-to-face meeting. +I'm certain for those naked women who are serious about losing weight; I can make you sweat off a few pounds with some hard thrusting and deep probing action. No, there is no need to thank me. I will receive my own rewards helping you to lose weight by having sex with you, I mean, by showing you how to lose weight by having more sex. Yeah, that's it." +422,How To Make a Bad Marriage,angel_in_disguise,How To,2005-07-27,2005-07-27,2022-01-04 08:32:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-a-bad-marriage,Somewhat humorous look at marrying the wrong person.,"['Recently Divorced', 'Resentment', 'Wrong Person', 'Wrong Reasons']",4.57,"There are many reasons people marry and some of them are what most would call ""the right"" reasons. Those might include love, companionship, the need to be with that special person and only that one person. For the rest of us, who later find we've made a mistake, the following is a ""how-to"" for not only making the wrong decision, but doing nothing about it. It's a somewhat humorous look at the seriousness of making a wrong decision. +1) Marry for the wrong reasons. This will definitely take years off any marriage. Get married to cure loneliness. Get married to have help financially. Get married because you were dared. Get married because everyone seems to think it's what you should do. Better yet, get married because for some insane reason, you think it will make a bad relationship better. Best reason: because it's better than being alone, right? +2)Marry the wrong person. Sure, there might be someone else you like more, someone you're more compatible with, but so what? This one is available. S/he has annoying habits or personality quirks that make you crazy... no big deal! You've got the rest of your life to get used to them! And, refer to #1- it's better than being alone, isn't it? +3)Marry someone very recently divorced. This is the best. They're still bitter about their last marriage and will compare everything you do, you say, you think to what their ex did, said, thought. Oh, it makes for great dinner conversation! No matter how innocent what you're doing may be, there's a dark underlying tone that only s/he is aware of. You will be guilty until you can prove otherwise, and isn't having to prove your innocence a great thing??? +4)Marry someone with kids. Make sure they're young; the younger the better, and that they live with their other parent. If they are younger than your own and have lots of issues left unresolved, are basic brats who make your kids on a bad day look good this is even better! By golly, you just can't imagine how rewarding it is to have those lovely 'your kids' vs. 'my kids' discussions. If your spouse, that lovely person you married, is the type to blame everything on everyone else, then you'll get the added bonus of hearing how his/her kids are so bad due to the custodial parents lack of proper upbringing. If you're really lucky, you'll become privy to the fact that everything you've done as a parent up to the point where s/he came into your life was wrong. +5)Make sure the wrong person is the total opposite of you. You will not believe how much enjoyment you can get from watching TV shows you hate, listening to jokes that even a five year old would find demeaning, and having nothing in common to talk about. If you like an occasional drink, make sure s/he is against alcohol. You're an extravert, marry an introvert. You have a sense of humor, marry someone who has to have the punch line explained. Never marry someone who's intellect is equal to your own. +6)Stew in your resentment. Oh, this one is good! Make sure you stay longer than necessary so you can really resent not only your partner, but yourself! You'll know you've been with him/her too long when the sound of the door opening causes you to wretch because you know s/he is home from work. Real resentment comes when you see their mouth open and you want to stuff a dirty sock in it before s/he has a chance to say another word that will make you grit your teeth. You stay up late to avoid having to get into the same bed with him/her. You stay late or go in early to work to avoid being in the same house with them. When you reach that point where not only can you not stand to look at your partner and be in the same room with him/her, but you can't stand the person you see in the mirror when you're alone... boy oh boy! We're cookin' with gas now!!! +7) Marry someone who needs to be in control at all times. This can lead to abuse of one kind or another. Don't we all want to be abused?? Doesn't it make you want to get up in the morning, just to see what s/he is going to say or do to make you feel like crap? +8) Marry someone who lies. Make sure s/he actually believes the lies being told so that at first you become a little confused. Whatever you do , don't question the tales because you wouldn't want to be accused of making false accusations would you? Besides, it's rather fun deciphering the truth. +9)Marry someone who is jealous of everything and everyone in your life. You don't need friends, do you? Didn't you agree when you got married that all prior friendships would become null and void? And does your dog really need any attention? The kids will be grown sometime, so it's not like they need any of your attention either. You have a job outside the home? Do not talk to anyone; they might reply and you'd be in a conversation that doesn't include your spouse, therefore making it unnecessary. You must give all your attention, time, and energy to your spouse only. +And finally... +10)Don't leave. By golly, you just might feel better about yourself and life in general, and we wouldn't want that, now, would we? Of course not!

Our culture values the idea that when you want something, you go after it, or at the very least, you ask for what you want._ +That is one way of thinking -- sometimes referred to as a Western perspective. Another paradigm, though, is to think not about the outcomes but about the circumstances. In this school of thought, you set up or enter into the context, and watch whatever naturally results. What you need will come to you. Things aren't always as they seem. +I met Mike when I was twenty-five. I was a financial aid counselor -- young, just a year out of grad school -- and he was a broke medical student. It was an unexpected way to begin a friendship. Here is how it all began. +At Big University of Loma Linda (a.k.a. BULL), you had to have an appointment to see financial aid counselors, every day except Friday. I don't know what horse's ass thought this policy up, but there it was. Fridays were always mobbed in that too-small, grungy office. The orange and tan canvas painting in the lobby held too much dust. The floors never seemed to be clean. The students hated it and the counselors hated it more, for we had to face it every damn day. The staff took no end of abuse from college-age kids who were broke, desperate, and angry. We did our best, but there never seemed to be enough people, time, physical space, or money to go around. +One Friday afternoon I sat in my office, exhausted. As the primary counselor on call that day, I had worked with so many students my head was swimming. It was late in the day. The clock ticked hopefully from 4:30 toward 5:00. Even though rush hour would be no picnic, at least I could go home and close my eyes. +Then the phone rang. ""You got a student,"" said the front desk. I straightened my back and went out to the lobby. It was surprisingly quiet, but for the one customer who had prompted the call. I gave him a smile and took the slip from the receptionist. ""Medical student,"" she said. Her tone rang a low bell of warning. +""Hi, Mike,"" I said brightly, looking at the scrawl. Shaking hands with him was like sticking my hand into a MLB pitcher's glove. ""Come on back."" He tried not to outpace me as I led the way down the dim cabinet-lined hall. I introduced myself as we walked and, when we got into my office, invited him to have a seat at the side of the desk. +""I see you've written 'student loan' here,"" I said. ""Can you say more?"" +He nodded glumly. ""The bank says they mailed the check over a month ago,"" he replied. ""I've called every week but it still isn't here."" +He proceeded to tell me how his landlord was looking the other way on the rent past due, at least for now. And a friend of his who owned a grocery store was letting him run a tab. Mike had been shopping after hours at the store so he could eat. +Obviously this was an appalling situation. I asked a few questions about dates, the name of the bank, and called up his file on the dumb terminal. According to Oscar, everything was in order, or should be. +""Mike, I'm going to check a few things,"" I told him. ""If you'll please wait here for a few minutes, I'll be right back."" He nodded again, still looking unhappy. He didn't look hopeful that I would have any effectiveness at all. +Across the hall I studied the student loan check log. The undergrad told me she had already looked. ""I believe you, Karlene,"" I said. ""I just want to be thorough."" Back for several pages, three months in time, I scanned the log for any mention of this particular student. The bank was listed more than once, so I knew they were mailing as they said, and we had been receiving checks from them. Didn't look like the problem was there. +I backtracked, into the grody hallway, and searched out the student's file. Application, federal paperwork, ok. Taxes, parents' taxes, fine. And then -- stuffed in between the 8 ½ x 11 papers -- there was the check. +I just about barfed. It would have been less disgusting to find a dead rat in there. My eyes glazed over a bit as I read ""pay to the order of ... the sum of twenty thousand dollars and 00/cents."" My head tipped back and I squinched my eyes shut. Oh, this place, this insanely incompetent place! _Here it comes_ , I thought; _he's going to kill me_. +I took a deep breath and stepped into the doorway of my office. The blond giant looked up. ""Mike,"" I hesitated, ""ah, let me start by saying I'm really sorry."" He didn't interrupt, just stared. +""You see,"" I continued in a strangled voice, ""what's supposed to happen is that, when we receive bank checks, the student worker logs them in. Then they're delivered to the bursar's office, which has the authority to dispense the funds to the students."" +""And?"" he asked. My stomach clenched up. I knew full well that the bursar's office had closed ten minutes ago. Wouldn't this guy just love another weekend scraping by, knowing a $20K check was locked up a few blocks away. +""The check is in the file,"" I said quietly. ""It looks like a student worker made a mistake and just filed it."" _It has probably been sitting there for several weeks_ , I didn't say out loud. +""Well can I have it?"" he said. Again I grimaced. ""I don't know,"" I admitted. ""I'll ask my bosses."" +Scott and the Ice Queen were enjoying late-Friday chit-chat. They looked up at my knock and I explained what had just happened. I told them everything this kid had just told me: the rent, the groceries, much less the textbooks and lab stuff. Medical school isn't cheap. A glance over my shoulder showed Mike sticking his head out my office door. I'll never forget the look on his face: expectant, vulnerable, and suddenly quite young. +To my astonishment, Ice was benevolent; I had won the case. ""OK, give it to him."" Shock! I ran back down the hall, slipping a little in my $9 pumps, and excitedly thrust the check into my client's hands. +* * * +Mike and I still chat on the phone from time to time, or swat an email around here or there. Our friendship has lasted for nearly two decades now and I expect it always will. +One might initially think that better circumstances, where there is enough money and the premises are clean and people aren't stressed and tired, would be more conducive to making friends.

Yet just because I'm unqualified to give advice on this subject is not going to stop me from doing so. For most of us men who can cum at the drop of a hat or at least the vision of a lady in a short skirt bending over to pick up a dropped hat it is hard for us to understand how so many women find it difficult to achieve the same thing. How can the two genders from the same species be wired so differently for the ability to achieve the same sensation? +I understand the original biology of it all, the male needs to get his sperm deposited first and foremost and the female needs to stay in place to allow the sperm enough time to fertilize her eggs. Therefore, the male cums fast and the female orgasm turns from excitement to a slow glow. Of course, I also know for a biological result the male must climax while it is not necessary for the female to do the same. Still with all that a given we are not talking procreation here, we are talking recreation and in that context the woman has as much right to achieve orgasm as the man. +If I have any expertise on this subject, it has come from my two wives and the women I dated between them. Although that is not enough for a scientific study, I think it is enough for me to give my opinions. With every woman I've been with, my goal was and is for them to have as much pleasure as myself. In no way was I successful every time I had sex but it still was my goal Most of my failures were due to my own clumsiness or my inability to understand the needs of my partner. With each new partner I was with, I increased my knowledge of the parameters of the female orgasm. +One of the hot topics on the web these days is women who squirt, that is, women who ejaculate fluid as they orgasm. As seen in the pornos, these orgasms are intense usually leaving the women gasping for breath and shaking uncontrollably. I have seen reports of this not being possible or at best just urine escaping with the orgasm. Years ago, I was lucky enough to have a girlfriend who was a squirter. She didn't do this every time she came but every so often, she would just go off soaking me and everything around us. Just like the pornos she would be left shaking and extremely sensitive to the touching of her clit. I never could ascertain what made her cum like that and learned just to enjoy it as a treat when it happened. After many of my own taste tests, I can guarantee this fluid was not urine and didn't come from her urethra but from her womb. This was long before the web or anything like it and neither she nor I knew what was happening. To me it was extremely erotic and although messy, was a complete turn on. +Although not all women are having orgasms, all women deserve orgasms. If your partner is not having orgasms with you, it may be your fault or it may have something to do with her own hang-ups. I dated a very sexy woman for quite a few months and no matter what I tried, she could not cum at all. This girl was a topless dancer, she could tease a whole room full of men, and she could do it well. Even in her clothes, she knew just what to do to get a guy to start thinking with his little head. In bed, she loved to do wild and crazy things but would not allow me to give her oral. She admitted that her extra large labia was an embarrassment to her and therefore did not want my face near her privates, as she called them. I tried everything to convince her otherwise to no avail and when I tried to press the subject, it only made it worse. +During one weekend we spent together, she told me to go ahead and sleep in while she took a bath. I was aroused from my sleep by her screaming and thinking she was in distress, I rushed into the bathroom to see her screaming in the throes of orgasm not pain. She was sitting in the tub with her legs splayed and on the wall with the spigot between them. The water was splashing on her clit and this was what sent her into orbit. When she looked up to see me watching she screamed and shut the tub enclosure. I went over and opened it up again only to find her with her face buried in her hands, crying. I apologized and tried to explain I was not spying; I heard her cries and mistook them for distress. She was humiliated and embarrassed beyond tears. I dried her off and took her back to bed where she told me the only way she could ever get off was by water flowing over her clit. +I told her it was all right, that I had no problem with the way she came as long as she came some way. She thanked me but said there was no way she could orgasm while I watched. I told her that was still all right I just wanted her to have an orgasm every so often. +A few days later I was in the local hardware store and saw on the wall for the first time a hand held shower. I bought it on the spot and left for her house. I let myself in with her hide-a-key and installed the hand hand held shower without even telling her about it. She called me at about four in the morning, she got off work at two-thirty and went straight home and when she hopped in the shower, she saw my present. If you do the math, you can see she used her new toy for at least an hour. After saying she was sorry for waking me up she went on to rave about how well her shower head worked. You have to realize this was when these devices were still quite rare and she had never seen one. She went on to say she loved me and I kidded her that she only loved her new toy. The thing about the shower-head was she could now use it standing up or sitting or whatever way she wanted. Before she always felt like a freak by the way she had to position herself to get the right angle of the water flow. Now she felt all right doing this in front of me and I'm sure of any of the other boys she went with after me. +Now that I'm no longer in the field of helping strange women achieve an orgasm I've learned of the research into the C-V distance. This was first looked into in 1924 by a Princess Marie Bonaparte a French psychoanalyst who found in her studies with women that most of the women who could not achieve orgasm through intercourse had a distance of over 2.5 centimeters (roughly the size of your thumb from the knuckle to the tip) between their clitoris and their vaginal opening. What her research boiled down to was if the clit were too far away from the cunt, the cock would not be close enough to stimulate it. +As this is just a bizarre twist of genetics, there is nothing that can be done about it. Ms. Bonaparte who suffered this same longer separation even tried surgery to move them closer together to no avail. Does this mean these women can't orgasm, no, it just means that most of the time they need something more than just penile penetration. +I really do believe that most men want their women to achieve sexual satisfaction and if they don't they don't deserve their women. It is just such a delicate balance with many women and so easy to go over the edge and end up with nothing. As her frustration builds, the male feels this and many take this personally. Like many of the problems between the sexes most of the time they can be resolved with communication. Men you need to talk to your partners find out their feelings and what they desire and the same goes for the women, they need to tell their man what they want and what he can do to help them. We love our wives and girlfriends, we want them to feel fulfilled, and most of us are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve it." +425,How to Make a Woman Want You,SusanJillParker,How To,2013-08-28,2013-09-07,2022-01-04 08:32:31,3,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-a-woman-want-you-ch-01,1.

Afraid of losing their jobs, men didn't ask out female co-workers unless it was on their own time and their advances were mutually welcomed and women didn't welcome any advances from their male co-workers while at work. Waiting for the right opportunity to show his affection for her, while waiting for her to give him the go ahead, green light with a look, a gesture, or with her body language, Wayne lusted over Susan from afar. If only he had her in his life, his life would be complete. +If only she was his he imagined all the things they could do together. Going out to eat, going to the movies, even going bowling together, he realized all the fun that he was missing not having, never having a girlfriend. He could take her home to meet his mother. She could take him home to meet her parents. +Tall, blonde, busty, beautiful, intelligent, and witty, Susan was everything that any man would want in a woman. His longtime dream woman, she was Wayne's version of Christie Brinkley in the way that Christie looked two decades ago as a supermodel. Unfortunately and assuredly, not seeing him in the same light, she looked at him as if he was Billy Joel but without all of the talent, success, influence, and money. Had Wayne really thought about it, had he looked at himself in the mirror, he should have known that someone like her would never be interested in someone like him. +Striking out a lot lately for some odd reason, never making it to second base and never so much as getting a second date, he didn't have much success with women. Yet, in the way that Susan was always so nice, polite, and accommodating to him by always making eye contact with him, smiling at him, and helping him with the daily paperwork at his job, he figured that he may have a chance with her, if not for romance perhaps for sex. Then, one day, with them working late and everyone else gone for the evening, building up the courage to blurt it out, he seemingly and innocently asked her if she wanted to grab a bite to eat. +Even before she accepted his invitation, after taking her to dinner, visualizing what would happen next, he imagined her being all over him. As if her agreeing to go to dinner with him was his sexual fantasy come true, touching him and kissing him, feeling his cock through his pants before unzipping him and removing him from his underwear, he imagined her stroking him before sucking him. Allowing him to touch her breasts through her blouse and feel her nipples through her bra before moving his hand up her short skirt to cup her pussy through her panty, he envisioned making out with her. +A first step in any relationship, especially an office romance, where fraternizing with other employees was frowned upon, he needed to get her away from the office. He needed to ply her with a couple of drinks to relax her. He needed to show her how much he wanted her. He needed to have sex with her. +* * * * * +""Shall we go to dinner together? My treat,"" he said. +""Dinner?"" She looked at him as if he was asking her for a pint of blood. ""Yeah, sure, I guess that will be okay, so long as it's just dinner,"" she said giving him a long look as if trying to discern if he had an ulterior motive which, of course, he had and which, of course, all men had when around her. ""I don't want to have to report you to Human Resources for sexual harassment Wayne,"" she said warning him with a toss of her long, blonde hair, a sexy move that made him wild with lust for her. +""Sexual harassment? Me? We're only going to dinner Susan after working late at the office,"" he said with a nervous laugh. +""So long as you understand that I'm not interested in you in a sexual way Wayne, I'll accompany you to dinner as a friend,"" she said. ""I trust, when in my company, you will behave like a gentleman and not paw and grope me in the way that so many men, too many men, have done."" +""Gees, it's not a date Susan. It's just dinner and some shop talk,"" he said. ""So, what do you say?"" +He imagined her being pawed and groped by a multitude of men, men who wouldn't take no for an answer. He imagined her submitting to their wills by getting naked and allowing them to have their wicked way with her naked body. +""Sure, why not? I already told you that I'd go with you, so long as it's just for dinner and nothing else and so long as you act like a gentleman,"" she said again, this time looking at her watch. ""Besides, it's too late to buy something at the market for supper and I'm too tired to cook anyway."" She looked at him in the way that he imagined her looking at him when he was naked. ""I'm all yours for the evening,"" she said with a big, white smile. +All mine for the evening? Is that what she just said? Is she playing me? Is she teasing me? How long may I have her for the evening? Is she hinting at sex? +He imagined foregoing dinner to go back to her place. He imagined stripping her naked while kissing and kissing her. He imagined her stripping him naked while begging him to allow her to blow him and cum in her mouth. He imagined having sex with her in the living room, the kitchen, the bathroom, and the bedroom. He imagined making her his sexy bitch while totally ignoring her at the office so as to keep his job and not violate the company's sexual harassment policy with a secret, office romance. +With all eyes upon her when they walked in the restaurant, no doubt, people figured he must have money to have someone who looks like her on his arm. Obviously having grown accustomed to having men turn their heads when she walks in a room, with her disregarding their looks, and with him proud to be with someone who looked like her, he took Susan, his attractive co-worker to dinner. He thought that things between them couldn't be any better. +In the way that she smiled at him and looked at him while making constant eye contact with him, he thought that he may have a chance with her as her steady boyfriend. In the way that she made him feel as if he was the only man in the room, he thought that he may even have a chance with her as her special fuck buddy. Already in the ballpark, he couldn't wait to cross first base before hitting one out of the park with her naked and begging him for sex. +Eating, drinking, talking, and laughing, glad that he asked her to dinner and that she accepted his invitation, she seemingly had a good time and he did too. They each had a couple of glasses of wine with their meal and talked, mostly about their respective jobs and about the people they worked with at the office. Obviously more interested in her than she was in him, he asked her lots of personal questions about herself and about her family. Obviously not seeing the grimaced look on her face and not realizing that he was giving her a headache is when she had a third glass of wine before polishing off the remainder of the bottle. +Ignoring some questions that were too personal or strangely weird, she reluctantly answered most of his unnerving questions while not asking him any questions about him in return. The wine seemed to have relaxed her enough that nothing could foul her good mood, not even Wayne. Obviously to her, this was nothing more than a spur of the moment, quick dinner. Obviously to him, in the way that he gazed at her, a love connection, he was already in lust with her. No doubt, had she not had the extra glass of wine, she never would have answered any of his so personal questions about herself and her family. +Finally, after driving her home, they sat outside her apartment in his car while talking about tomorrow's workday. Showing him a little more of herself than she should, it was obvious to him by the disheveled and careless appearance of her clothes that she was a little tipsy. Knowing Wayne and no doubt suspecting that he'd sexually take advantage of her, she needed to flee this small, secluded space that he called a car. This is where she should have gotten out of the car and left him to himself to lust over her in his dreams with his hand around his cock that night but she didn't. For some inexplicable reason, she lingered in his car. For some inexplicable reason, she stayed there taunting him and teasing him without even realizing that she was torturing him by prolonging her departure. Maybe she was drunk. +* * * * * +Didn't she know how beautiful she was? Suddenly Sammy Kershaw's song played through his mind, She Don't Know She's Beautiful. Didn't she know how sexy she was? Didn't she know what she was doing to him by just sitting there while smiling at him and laughing at his lewd jokes and inappropriate comments? +Perhaps had she not had that one, last, extra glass of wine, she may have collected her thoughts enough to leave his car and abandon him to his bad self. Perhaps had she not been so tired, the wine wouldn't have gone to her head in the way that it did? Perhaps had the radio not been playing her favorite song, Unchained Melody by the Everly Brothers, she would have already alighted from his car, walked in her apartment, and retired to bed alone. +Adding to Wayne's impassioned lust for her was the way she was immodestly, sexily dressed. A little too sexy for office attire, her low cut blouse had fallen even lower and plenty low enough for him to get a good view of her long line of cleavage along with the bulbous tops of her perfectly amazing breasts. With her nipples making their big impressions through her bra and through the thin material of her blouse, his lips involuntarily moved in the shape of a goldfish. He could see even more of her big boobs whenever she leaned forward, especially in the way she was leaning forward now when rifling through her purse to retrieve her lipstick. Enamored with her full breasts, at least a C cup, possibly even a D cup, he wondered if they were real. +A good question, but not thinking that her lips may be dry from dinner and from the starchy port, house wine that she drank, he wondered why was she putting on lipstick now when she was getting ready to go inside her house? Suddenly the sexual excitement of the situation took hold of him in the way that he knew he was going to get lucky with his Prom date, Mary Beth Higgins so long ago, when she applied a fresh coat of lipstick before going down on his dipstick. With her taking control of his rearview mirror to bath her lips in bright, red lipstick, was that the signal that she was expecting him to kiss her? Or forsaking the kiss goodnight, she was going to go right to the blowjob? +He could use a little red lipstick on his dipstick right about now. Did she want him to kiss her? Did she want to kiss him as much as he wanted to kiss her? As if he was the bull and she was the matador teasing him with a red cape, is that why she's repainted her lips so brightly red? Red, full lips with bright, blue eyes, and big, firm breasts, she looked so sexy. +Having had so very little experience with women, he didn't know what she was thinking and what he should do. A total mystery to him, he never knew what women were thinking. He never knew when and how to make his move. Damned if he did and damned if he didn't, he wished he had a friend who could teach him all there was there was to know about woman. Nonetheless his inexperience and his inability to discern her motives, he had all the intentions of kissing her anyway, reapplied lipstick or not. +A spectacularly sexy sight to see, he looked from her lips to her breasts and down to her legs. He imagined her legs wrapped around his neck while licking her and fingering her pussy. He imagined her legs wrapped around his back while he made sweet love to her before fucking her hard. +She was such a sexy bitch and there she was sitting vulnerably in his car while waiting for him to kiss her. Watching it climb ever so slowly higher with her every movement and with every bump in the road, her short skirt had been driving him crazy during the entire ride to the restaurant and back. She had such shapely, long legs and with her not wearing any pantyhose, he knew that she was only wearing panties. Wondering what color panties she was wearing, he'd love for her to flash him her panties. +Yet, what if she wasn't wearing panties? What if she removed her panties at the office or in the restaurant? The gentleman that he wished he was, instead of jumping in his driver's seat, when she climbed in the car at the office and again at the restaurant, he wished he had stood there by the passenger side door to open and close the car door for her. Definitely, with her climbing in his low car in that short skirt, with her legs so immodestly spread wide open, she would have given him a between the legs shot of her panties or pussy, that is, if she was wearing any panties. Now consumed by the thoughts of her short skirt, her panties, and her pussy, again, if she was even wearing panties, his clue to know if she wanted sex, he had to know if she was wearing panties or not. +Now with her hem nearly up to bottom of her crotch and her knees parted enough to see her panties or her pussy, he was enamored with seeing so very much of her shapely thighs. As if he was Harvey Keitel as George Baines lying beneath her piano, in the movie, The Piano, he'd love to be staring up at her from his passenger seat floorboards. Focusing on her panties again, he wondered what color panties she was wearing. If she wasn't wearing panties, he wondered if she was shaved, trimmed, or bushy. He wondered if she'd allow him to kiss her. He wondered if she'd allow him to stick his hand down her top to feel her big tits and his other hand up her skirt to feel her panties or finger her pussy. +Now or never, the moment he's been waiting for, this was it, the point of no return. With her lipstick freshly applied and in the way that he imagined Loni Anderson looking at him, his longtime favorite sexual, fantasy woman, she looked at him with her beautiful face and smiled at him with those big, blue eyes. Waiting for the right moment, with her head back and her eyes momentarily closed while she listened to the music that the car radio played, he looked at her as if he was in love and at that moment losing his mind to her sexuality, he was. +She was so beautiful and with that freshly applied lipstick, she was so ready to be kissed. In that sexy outfit of a low cut blouse and a short skirt, she was begging him to feel her up while kissing and kissing her. Getting himself ready for some hot action, and with him already having an erection, a daring albeit a perversely perverted move, he stealthily removed his cock from his jeans and underwear and covered it with his shirttails. +He felt so exposed. He felt like such a pervert but he didn't care. He was too horny to care if he was taking advantage of her being a little inebriated. Perhaps it was the alcohol that she consumed over dinner but she seemed receptive to him making a sexual move. Perhaps it was the alcohol that he consumed over dinner that made him even more desperately horny than he was for him to be so despicable in removing his cock from his jeans. +""Thank you Wayne. I had a good time,"" she said opening her eyes to smile at him with her hand on the car's door handle. +""I had a good time too, Susan,"" he said. +She should have left his car but she didn't. She delayed her departure and prolonged her time with him by sitting there in an alcohol dazed stupor. Maybe she felt guilty for not being so forthcoming in answer his questions. Maybe she felt guilty for not asking him even one question about himself or his family. Maybe she figured that she was wrong about him and that he wasn't such a bad guy after all. Then, as if she hadn't noticed his car before and as if making up for her bad manners, he watched her staring at the interior of his car. +""What kind of car is this Wayne?"" She looked at him as if he had built the car himself. +""It's a Honda,"" he said with pride. +""A Honda? Seriously?"" Unable to hide her look of dismay, she looked all over the inside of the car. ""It doesn't look like any Honda that I've ever seen,"" she said looking at him while chuckling. ""How old is this car?"" +""It's a classic,"" he said with a prideful smile. ""This car will be worth a lot of money one day. Not a full sized car like the new ones, the Hondas today are too big and too heavy. No ma'am, they don't make them like this anymore,"" he said patting his dashboard as if he was petting a pet. +""Thank God,"" she said unable to hide her contempt for his car and wiping her hands with a wet wipe. ""This car doesn't look very safe. Does it even have airbags?"" +""Airbags? Yeah, I think it does but I doubt that they still work,"" said Wayne moving his hand across the dashboard as if he was feeling a woman's leg. +Excited and nervous, this was the moment that Wayne had been waiting for but dreaded the most, the much anticipated goodnight kiss. Always going overboard and always never knowing when to stop, he had difficulty in reading women's body language. Always it was a nightmarish wrestling match with him desperately groping the woman while trying to kiss her and while trying to force her hand on his cock. Always it was the woman acting as if he was trying to rape her. Women were such cockteasers. He hoped he'd have been luck with Susan. +He imagined after kissing her, after parting her lips with his tongue, and after feeling her tits through her top, and fingering her pussy through her panty, if she was wearing any, he hoped she'd invite him inside of her apartment. He hoped that she was as sexually attracted to him as he was to her. He hoped she'd want to have sex with him. He hoped that she was the one, his first, real girlfriend and fuck buddy. He'd love to have sex with her every morning and every night. The prettiest woman in the office, she has such a smoking hot body. +From all the women at the office, he liked her the most. A woman he could marry and have children with, he really liked her. She was kind to him when the other women weren't. She always said hi to him whenever they saw one another in the corridors. She always wished him a goodnight and for him to have a nice weekend. At this point of his life, it didn't take much for him to fall in love and he was already in love with her. +* * * * * +If it wasn't for the sexual harassment policy at work, he would have asked her out a long time ago. If it wasn't for the sexual harassment policy, after everyone had gone home but for them, he would have banged her already in the copy room, in the lunch room, and/or in the storeroom. He would have bent her over somewhere in the office, lifted up her short skirt, pulled down her panties, and fucked her from behind while feeling her big tits and fingering her hard nipples. Then, with a gentle push on her shoulder, he imagined her dropping to her knees to suck his cock. With his cum dripping out from the sides of her red lipstick covered mouth and staining her blue blouse in the way that Bill Clinton's cum stained Monica Lewinski's blue dress, he imagined filling her mouth with his cum. +Obviously expecting much more than a goodnight kiss, Wayne hoped for so much more. Hoping for a blowjob while playing with her big tits and fingering her erect nipples, he was expecting a hand job while reaching beneath her short skirt to explore her panty clad or naked pussy. At the very least, he'd settle for some French kissing while he felt her breasts through her blouse and fingered her nipples through her bra. At the very least, he'd settle for sticking his fat hand beneath her short skirt to feel her pussy through her panties as she felt his cock through his pants while kissing and kissing and kissing him. +""Well, thank you for the nice meal Wayne. Thank you for being a gentleman. I had fun,"" said Susan reaching for the door handle again. ""I'll see you tomorrow at work,"" she said giving him a sexy smile before turning away. +""Wait,"" he said. +This was it. This was the moment he was waiting for and she was about to leave. What was he thinking? He couldn't allow her to go. He needed to stop her. He needed to strip her. He needed to touch and feel her everywhere that a fellow employee should never touch and feel another fellow employee. +What was she thinking? She couldn't go and leave him like this. She needed to kiss him. She needed to stroke his cock before sucking him. She needed to invite him to her apartment for hot sex. +""Yes,"" she turned her head to him.

It's Celeste again and I'm writing without Jimmy's help because I'm on a mission. It is to explain to women the wonderfully complex body we inhabit and how to realize the full sensual pleasure you can experience if you know, respect and love it. +First, we need to explore three hidden pleasure centers that help you achieve orgasms you wouldn't think possible: your complete clit, your g-spot, and the magical valley around your anus. Then we'll talk about how they should be touched and with what—a finger, penis, or tongue. Finally, I'll tell you what my five favorite orgasms are when I access them and hope you'll share yours with other readers. If this seems rather clinical it's because my purpose is to teach. What you do with what you learn is where the fun begins. +Lying below your belly button, these three pleasure centers are all located close to each other and interact with each other. Let's start with the clitoris and work south. +1\. Know your clitoris, all of it. +When you say clitoris, most women think of the protruding nub that lies just above the vagina and that generates the most intense arousal instincts in our bodies. I'm not sure that I've ever had an orgasm without at least the indirect stimulation of the nub. But that's only part, and a very small part, of a complicated, pleasure-giving organ. 85% of the clitoris lies under the skin and look remarkably like the wishbone of a Thanksgiving turkey. Its arms extend down the walls of your vagina and then curve closer together (they don't actually meet) as they approach your anus. My clit arms are very sensitive and love to be stroked. This stroking produces a subtle, rising sense of arousal that is absolutely delicious. When I can't stand it anymore, I stroke my nub and the result is a take-your-breath-away orgasm that leaves me shuttering. +To experience this, the next time you masturbate lube your pointer and index fingers and press them against the walls of your vagina until you feel bony structures on both sides. Stroke up and down and see if it doesn't produce a sensation that you may never have felt before. +If you want to add still another sensation, see if you can locate the ends of the arms and press against them. I can do it, but it took a great deal of practice and isn't easy. Generally speaking, if you think of your anus as a clock with noon as the point closest to your vagina, try pressing above it and to the sides at approximately ten and two o'clock. That works for me. +Frankly, if you have a body-mass index approaching thirty or higher, you are less likely to be able to feel the parts of your clit lying below the skin. The area around the lips of your vagina is one of the first places that fat tissue accumulates. Not preaching, just telling the truth. +2\. Locate your g-spot precisely. +This isn't easy to do because you can't see anything and you'll be relying entirely on your or a partner's sense of touch. It's well worth the effort to spend the time that's necessary to locate this roughly textured little patch that lies on the outer wall of your vagina (the one closest to your skin) between two and three inches in from the entry point. You'll know you've found it when your finger finds a spot that feels like it is rubbing across a piece of corduroy. You can google any of the excellent anatomical charts to see where you should be looking. Believe me, you'll know when you find it. +The easiest way to explore is with your finger, or two fingers if you want to stimulate the arms of your clit at the same time. Lying on your back with a pillow under your hips for comfort, take your middle finger (make sure that the nail is trimmed and filed), lube it, and insert it fully into your vagina. The trick is then to move it around exactly as if you were making the ""come here"" motion as you scrape along the outer wall. Be patient. It will probably take some time to find what you're looking for. Once you do however, you will have unlocked one of the great sensual secrets of your body and it's a piece of knowledge you'll enjoy for the rest of your life. +The g-spot is unique among the three in that it responds best to constant, applied pressure, not to stroking. Once you've found it, leave your finger pressing against it and see what happens. Wow. +3\. Map your magic valley +Your anus, or asshole, is second only to the nub of your clit as a pleasure center in your body. It has a huge number of nerve endings that send arousal signals to your brain. But you have to know where they are. +The human body contains thirty-five pairs of sphincter muscles, one voluntary and one involuntary. In the eye, they control how we blink, in the throat they make it impossible to breathe and swallow at the same time. The anus has a pair and you can control the external (voluntary) one by clenching and then relaxing your butt cheeks. The problem for many women with anal sex is that the internal one is involuntary; you can't control its relaxation. It's the penetration of the internal sphincter that causes pain and scares many women away from the pleasures of anal sex. The pain doesn't last and you can train the muscle to relax (see our Guide to Great Anal Sex), but it is also true that you can have a fabulous anal experience without penetration. +First, and this will be real fun if you've never done it before, you need to explore your hole. Take your pointer finger, or have your partner take his or hers, be sure the nail is clipped and filed, lube it, and slowly insert it into your anus pressing against a side. An inch or two in you'll come to something that feels like a taut rubber band. That's your external sphincter and you can flex your cheeks on it. Then slowly press forward until you meet resistance. Now you're at the internal sphincter and you shouldn't go any further unless you want to experience the sharp pain that begins the training process for anal sex. +What's important is that you don't need to. The tip of your finger should now be in the furrow or ""magic valley"" between the two sphincters and that is where the nerve endings that generate pleasure are located. Personally, I have completely different responses depending upon where I touch myself or where Jimmy puts his finger, or preferably his tongue. +Here's my roadmap. Imagine again that my anus is a clock face with noon the point closest to my vagina. Experience has taught me that any touching between 11 and 1, along with clit stroking, produces a harsh, overpowering orgasm that is so intense it is actually unpleasant, like being hit by a stun gun. On the other hand, touching or licking between five and seven relaxes me completely and sends me to sleep. For arousal leading to a beautiful orgasm, contact between two and four and eight and ten is perfect for me, a sensation that feels so good that you can't imagine the pleasure it brings until you experience it. That's just me. You should go to the trouble (it really isn't trouble at all) to create your own personal roadmap of your ""magic valley."" Do it by yourself or with a partner, whatever makes you feel more comfortable. +You have a homework assignment before the next class, but it's the type that we all wish we had been given in school. Either by yourself or with a partner, masturbate to the point of complete arousal stroking or pressing against the arms of your clit, your g-spot, and your magic valley. Finish by rubbing the external nub of your clit to achieve orgasm. This won't take very long, guaranteed. Repeat as necessary until you know what pleases you the most and you have complete knowledge about these three pleasure centers. +When you've done this, ladies, you will be ready for the second lesson: how they should be touched, and with what. +Celeste" +427,How To Make An Aurora Manhattan,phantom4533,How To,2011-01-09,2011-01-09,2022-01-04 08:32:35,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-an-aurora-manhattan,A collaborative effort in making a cocktail.,"['Cocktail', 'Humorous', 'Mischievous', 'Stimulating', 'Tasty', 'Teasing', 'Wet']",3.93,"Kevin had been waiting somewhat impatiently when he heard the sound of tires crushing the dried leaves outside his kitchen window. The leaves, which had started to fall on his driveway much, too soon, he thought to himself, would soon be mulched. But not before he had lived out a fantasy that had been swirling around the inside of his head for sometime now. +He looked out the window in time to see a tall goddess exit her car. Aurora had finally arrived. She definitely has a name to suit a goddess, he thought. His goddess, and he loved every inch of her. It was so nice to stand toe to toe with this statuesque woman, to be able to look her in the eyes and tell her how much he desired her, without either one having to twist their necks at odd angles. He appreciated that for a number of reasons, not the least being the collapsing, bulging discs in his neck. His close to sixty years had not treated him that badly, but his neck had been an issue for years.. He though to himself, ruefully, that at least he had been pain free since he had met Aurora. +Aurora walked up to the side door of Kevin's house and, not bothering to knock, entered. She had been a guest here before, and would be again, hopefully, more often. More than three decades younger than Kevin, she had found in him someone who understood her so completely that it scared her sometimes. She had found the puzzle piece that fit her. +Kevin, for his part, had been nervous at first. The age difference had bothered him, knowing that he could have been this woman's father or, in some parts of the country, her grandfather. That thought made him laugh. But it had not taken long at all for his trepidations to subside. He knew this woman fit him, as well. They mentioned it often, reinforcing their feelings for one another. The real joke was that the gods had played a cruel trick on them by having them fall in love at this particular point in time. The two of them considered each other to be soul mates and were going to enjoy every minute allotted to them. +Kevin greeted Aurora inside his kitchen door. A soft, lingering kiss on her lips was his first form of greeting. The second form was that of his hand squeezing her ass. Aurora giggled into his mouth, which had opened to completely cover her lips. His tongue snaked inside, tickling her gums, causing her to giggle more and to pull away from him. She then hugged him tightly nuzzling into his neck, emitting a contented sigh. Breaking the embrace, he led her into the living room and had her sit down in the corner of the couch. His spot, she thought. ""What does he have planned now?"" she said to herself. +""Aurora, love, I'm going to make us some cocktails before dinner. Is there anything in particular you would like?"" Aurora thought about it for a minute and decided on her drink of choice. ""Could I have a Peach Sangria?"" she asked. ""I believe I have what I need for that. Give me a couple of moments. I'm going to have a Manhattan. A special one, I think. I'll show you how I make it after your drink is ready."" he said. +After mixing a batch of Sangria and pouring Aurora a glass, he returned to the living room. Offering the peach flavored drink to her, he made sure she was comfortably seated on the sectional. ""I think you'll find this to your satisfaction. Now, I'm going to make my drink. I'm going to call it the Aurora Manhattan, in honor of you."" He then told her the recipe. +Two parts rye whiskey +One part apricot brandy (in lieu of sweet vermouth) +Two cherries (for sharing) +A drop of good bitters +Explaining more about his drink, he told her that old-fashioned American rye whiskey was making a comeback. He had four different kinds in his liquor cabinet, but for this drink, he was going to use a Rittenhouse rye. This was one of the less expensive ryes in his collection (and he did think of his whiskeys as collectors items) and it lent itself well to mixed drinks. He felt it was just spicy enough to overcome the sweetness of the brandy. She found it nice that he was telling her about another of his passions. She liked finding out about his passions, especially since she seemed to be one of them. +""If I may, I'm going to ask you for your help in making my drink. Most people use ordinary maraschino cherries, but I started marinating my own. Lately I've been using a brandy to soak Bing cherries in, but tonight I'd like to try something different ... if you're willing."" Aurora nodded her head in the affirmative, smiling. She liked the thought of helping him make his cocktail. If, in doing so, she made his cock hard at the same time, why that was just so much the better. She laughed inwardly at that thought. ""You are?"" he exclaimed. ""Wonderful! Sit there and I'll be right back."", he said as he smiled. +He went back into the kitchen, returning shortly with a small bowl. In the bowl were some large, dark red Bing cherries. Sitting down beside her on the couch, he leaned over and kissed her on the lips, tasting the sangria she was sipping. ""As you can see, these particular cherries are on the plump side. Aurora, I'm going to try a different marinade tonight."", he said. ""There is an art to marinating cherries. First, I'm going to need you to remove your panties."" Slipping the hem of her dress up over her smooth thighs, he made a discovery. His eyes widened as he said ""Oh my goodness. You're not wearing any. This is utterly fortuitous."" His eyes were full of mischief. +""These cherries are perfect for what I want to do."" he remarked. Taking a finger of his left hand, he placed it on her labia. He started to rub some. As he began to part her pussy, he told her of his intentions. ""Aurora, I'm going to marinate these cherries in you. I need to see if you have enough juices for this to work."" Slipping his finger past her slippery lips, he marveled at how wet she was. ""You have more than enough to do this properly."" he stated. He took his finger out and raised it to his nose. Then he put the finger in his mouth and sucked it clean. ""The taste and smell are exactly the qualities I was looking for in my marinade."" he remarked. Using both his hands, he pushed her thighs farther apart. ""Why don't you throw a leg up onto the back of the couch?"" he asked. +Aurora was very compliant. This was going to be extremely interesting, she thought to herself. Bending her leg and putting a calf on the top of the couch back, she asked if she could assist in any way. ""Just relax and enjoy"", He said. ""Watch and learn."", as he chuckled. +Picking up a cherry, he made a show of inspecting it. Putting it back in the dish, he reached into a pocket of his shorts and took out a small container of dental floss. He pulled on the floss and tore off two 12"" long strands, tying a strand around the stem of each cherry he had chosen. Then, reaching between her thighs, he began to rub the first cherry up and down her slit. Aurora started to moan and shifted her hips some, lifting them off the couch to increase the pressure. With a gentle push, he inserted the cherry into her vagina. Aurora caught her breath, her eyes never leaving his. +He took another cherry and repeated his steps, rubbing her labia and then inserting the firm , tiny orb into her pussy. She squirmed a bit, feeling those cherries inside her. They may not have vibrated like her favorite toy, but having them nestled in her cunt like sugarplums was every bit as exciting. +Looking down, she saw the two strings and hoped that they wouldn't slip off the stems when the time came to remove the cherries. She closed her eyes, relishing the feel of his fingers on her slickened pussy lips. Aurora wondered was going to happen next. As if reading her mind, he said, ""I'm going to start dinner. I have a movie I want you to watch. It's called 'The Guitar' and it stars a woman named Saffron Burrows. Very hot! But her co-star, Paz de la Heurta – oh, Aurora, I think you'll really like her. She has such full lips. You watch, and moan from time to time. It's a very erotic movie. Not porn, just simply erotic. I'll come back when I think the cherries are ready."" +Aurora squirmed around a bit more as she brought her leg back down and crossed her ankles. He picked up a remote, turned on his plasma television, and started the movie for her. Sitting up, legs still crossed, she took a sip from her sangria. He went back into the kitchen, letting her know that he was going to get started on dinner for the two of them. Aurora had never felt more pampered and certainly had never been a part of foreplay like this before. As she watched him disappear, she felt a shudder, the cherries rubbing the surface of her pussy with every slight move. Enjoying the sensations, she began to watch the movie. +About halfway through the show, he reappeared, stepping through the kitchen doorway and carrying a shaker containing his Manhattan ingredients. He also had a martini glass. Placing them both on the coffee table, he sat down beside her. He patted her thigh, noticing the hooded look of her eyes, and pushed apart her legs again. ""Why, Aurora, you're still squirming. I do believe the cherries have marinated long enough. Why don't I take one out and see."" He said, another sly grin crossing his face. +He had her put her leg back up on the top of the sofa and slowly lowered his face to her pussy. He kissed her, first on her womb, then lower, just above the top of her slit. He looked at her very swollen labia and noticed that she had drops of nectar seeping out of her, making a small trail down to her anus. There was wet spot under her ass. He thought to himself that it was a good idea to have gotten the stain protection when he purchased the couch. His tongue darted out, catching a drop of her juices, tasting her ad causing her hips to jerk upwards. +He continued to lap for a short while, then brought his lips to one of the strings attached to the fruity sex toy. Sucking it into his mouth and following the trail to her now open petals, he bit on the floss and began to gently tug, his nose brushing her slit while did. Soft gasps escaped from her. Out popped the nectar-marinated cherry. He deftly untied the floss and placed the cherry in his cocktail glass. Repeating this sequence of events, he retrieved the other cherry and plopped that into his glass as well. +He picked up the shaker, beads of water on the sides mirroring the beads of juice on her pussy's outer walls, and poured the chilled contents into the glass, covering the cherries. Letting it sit, he returned to more pressing matters, pressing his face to her cunt again, this time not stopping to tease. He proceeded to lick and lap at every surface of her pussy until she came with enough force to buck his face off of her. +Sitting up, his lips and chin now covered with a coating of her juices, he reached for his glass. Watching Aurora as she recovered, he took a sip of his drink. He then took his index finger, placed it to his chin, swabbing at the juices left behind, and touched it to the rim of his glass, making a lap around the edge. ""Perfect."" He said. ""Just perfect. This may be the best Manhattan I've ever made."" +Kevin sat down next to Aurora, placing an arm around her. Holding her close to him, sipping at his Manhattan, they resumed watching the movie. ""Dinner will be ready shortly"", he said. He couldn't wait until she laid eyes on the cheese filled chicken breasts. Anything filled with a creamy substance seemed to get her juices flowing, he thought, with a lascivious grin. And I'm going to have her for dessert. +The End" +428,How To Make Characters Talk in Your Stories,Whispersecret,How To,2002-07-27,2002-07-27,2022-01-04 08:32:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-characters-talk,The ins and outs of potent dialogue.,"['Dialogue', 'Dialogue Punctuation', 'How To Punctuate Dialogue', 'How To Use Quote Marks', 'Punctuating Dialogue', 'Punctuation', 'Punctuation Help', 'Quote Marks', 'Writing Dialogue', 'Writing Help']",4.77,"**LESSON 1 Why Use Dialogue in the First Place?** +Hi, I'm Whispersecret. I am going to attempt to explain how you can include dialogue in your stories. Hopefully, by the time I'm done, you will be able to confidently use quotation marks, commas, ending marks (.?!), and tags (he said/she exclaimed) correctly. There is even a ""final exam"" at the end you can take to see if you understand. +First, I wanted to talk about why using dialogue is critical for stories. Literotica has thousands of erotic stories. If your story is riddled with grammar/punctuation errors and lacks good dialogue, it's a good bet that people will pass and move on to a story that is easier to read. +Some contributors to Literotica refrain from having their characters actually talk, and their stories get read. They may even get good response. But I think those stories are lacking for many reasons. +REASON 1: Stories that have long, uninterrupted blocks of text are difficult to read. The human eye needs that white space. It helps the reader track the lines easier and prevents migraines! Haven't you read those stories yourself, where you lose your place in the paragraph? It's probably because you're looking at a solid wall of text that has nothing that your eye can use as a sort of marker or guidepost. Real dialogue can provide that necessary white space, making your story easier to read. (Proper paragraphing helps too.) +REASON 2: You are writing erotica to entertain readers with a sexy tale. Pure narrative with no conversation at all can be boring, and for an erotic story, that's counterproductive. +Take this example: + _I asked her to get on her knees and suck my dick. She told me she wanted that more than anything! Then she took me in her hot mouth and I told her how incredible it felt._ +That is what passes for dialogue in some stories. It is not dialogue; it is poor writing. Those three sentences aren't enough to be considered truly boring and monotonous, but if you have a whole story like that, believe me, it can get tedious. +How much more interesting is it to read this instead: + _""Get on your knees, baby, please. I want to watch you suck my cock.""_ +""I want that so much, Matt. God, I want to feel your hot prick in my mouth!"" +""Fuck...oh, FUCK! That's incredible. Don't stop. Suck it harder, baby..."" +Can't you just hear the desperation in their voices? The naked lust? And I didn't even add tags to describe their voices, the expressions on their faces, etc. That's coming up next. +REASON 3: Dialogue provides a punch to a story that can't be given any other way. Look again at the example I gave you above. Let me add a little to it and see how much more effective it is. See if you come away with a little bit more than the last time. + _""Get on your knees, baby, please,"" I begged Yvonne in a hoarse voice. ""I want to watch you suck my cock.""_ +""I want that so much, Matt,"" she said breathlessly. ""God, I want to feel your hot prick in my mouth!"" +I panted as she took me between her lips. I could barely speak. ""Fuck...oh, FUCK! That's incredible. Don't stop. Suck it harder, baby..."" +I hope you saw a difference. I hope you _felt_ a difference! This time you know that Matt is so aroused that his voice is hoarse. Yvonne is breathless; she really wants him. +REASON 4: You can communicate much more about your characters by choosing the _exact words_ they utter. For the next example I'm going to have three people say basically the same thing—that someone was wearing something that wasn't the current fashion. See if you get a different impression of each person based on the actual words that come out of their mouths: +""I was totally blown away. Her outfit was like so yesterday. I mean, this is the new millennium, you know."" +""I'm telling you, everyone who is anyone was talking about it. How could she possibly have worn that outdated ensemble? It was positively passe."" +""Huh, sugar, I can't tell you how silly she looked. Like she raided her grandma's attic!"" +Did you get a feel for those three people? Did you even create a picture of them in your head? I hope so. You can say about your characters by putting specific, well-chosen words in their mouths. +I'm sure I've missed some other reasons why dialogue is important to stories, but hopefully you get the idea. Quotation marks need to be there. Make friends with them. + **LESSON 2 Quotation Marks and A Little Bit about Commas** +Now, I'm actually going to teach you some rules. +Stop rolling your eyes! +Periodically I'll insert little ""tests"" so you can try it yourself. I recommend you actually use a pen and paper to write the sentence the way you think it should be. This will help cement the skill in your head. I'll have several returns to separate the ""quiz"" from the answer so you aren't so tempted to peek. +When I teach school children about quotation marks, the first thing I tell them is that whatever is inside the quotation marks is **exactly what comes out of the character's mouth.** If you remember that one thing, you'll do fine! Anything outside of the quotation marks is part of the narrative. +Here's a sentence without quotation marks: + _I don't swallow cum she said._ +Where do the quotation marks go? The marks should ""hug"" the exact words that come out of her mouth. + _""I don't swallow cum"" she said._ +Now, something is still missing. The comma. Usually you have to set off the quotation from the tag (he said, she replied, etc.) with a comma. (I'll get into exceptions to this later.) The comma goes **inside** the quotation marks. + _""I don't swallow cum,"" she said._ +Try it yourself. Here is a sentence without punctuation: + _Your cock can't possibly be ten inches long the doctor said._ +Which of the following is correct? + _A. ""Your cock can't possibly be nine inches long,"" the doctor said. B. ""Your cock can't possibly be nine inches long"" the doctor said. C. ""Your cock can't possibly be nine inches long, the doctor said.""_ +The answer was A. Did you get it right? Good for you! **REVIEW: Rule 1.** Quotation marks bracket the exact words the character is saying. **Rule 2.** If your quotation comes before the tag, the comma goes inside the quotation marks. + **LESSON 3 More about Commas and Capital Letters** +Sometimes the tag comes before the quote. If it does, you still need a comma. This time, the comma goes directly after the tag, **outside** of the quotation marks: + _She said, ""They had an orgy.""_ +Did you happen to notice that the above sentence has two capitals? I'm sure you remember your first grade teacher telling you that every sentence must start with a capital letter. That is why ""she"" is capitalized in that sentence. However, when you're quoting someone in a story, you also have to capitalize the first word they utter. That is why ""they"" is capitalized in that sentence. +You try it: + _Larry said her tits were like cannonballs_ +Which is right? _A. Larry said ""her tits were like cannonballs."" B. Larry said, ""Her tits were like cannonballs."" C. Larry said, ""her tits were like cannonballs.""_ +The answer is B. Give yourself a pat on the back if you got it right. That was complicated. +Every sentence needs an ending mark (a period, an exclamation point, or a question mark.) The ending mark acts like a stop sign to tell the reader that the sentence is done and a new sentence is next. In dialogue, the ending mark goes **inside** the quotation marks: + _Larry said, ""Her tits were like cannonballs!"" Larry said, ""Her tits were like cannonballs?""_ +You try: + _A. Dolores cried, ""Don't touch me there""! B. Dolores cried ""Don't touch me there!"" C. Dolores cried, ""Don't touch me there!""_ +The answer was C. + **REVIEW: Rule 3.** If your tag comes first, the comma is outside of the quotation marks. **Rule 4.** If your tag comes first, capitalize the first word that is uttered by the character. **Rule 5.** If your tag comes first, the ending mark for the sentence goes inside the quotation marks. + **LESSON 4 More About Ending Marks** +Take a look at this sentence: +Is that a banana in your pocket she asked +Shoot! This is complicated, isn't it! Where does the question mark go? +Well, let's put the quotation marks in first. Remember they hug the exact words being spoken. +""Is that a banana in your pocket"" she asked +Good. Now, remember when I told you that usually the quotation is set off from the tag by a comma, but that there would be exceptions? Here is an exception. She is asking a question, so you need a question mark **instead** of a comma. The question mark goes **inside** the quotation marks. It's supposed to punctuate the actual question being asked: + _""Is that a banana in your pocket?"" she asked_ +This sentence is still missing one thing. The entire sentence needs its own ending mark, a period. + _""Is that a banana in your pocket?"" she asked._ +There. It's exactly the same with an exclamation point: + _""It IS a banana!"" she exclaimed in disappointment._ +You try it. Which is correct? _A. ""How many shaved pussies have you licked"" he asked? B. ""How many shaved pussies have you licked,"" he asked? C. ""How many shaved pussies have you licked?"" he asked. D. ""How many shaved pussies have you licked he asked?""_ +The answer is C. +Suppose the tag is first. It's even simpler. There's only one ending mark, and it still goes **inside** the quotation marks: + _She asked him candidly, ""Will you fuck me?""_ + **REVIEW: Rule 6.** If your character is asking a question or exclaiming something, the ending mark goes **inside** the quotation marks. If the tag follows the quote, you need to add a period. + **LESSON 5 The Tag in the Middle** +We've gone through tags in the beginning. (I said, ""I love you."") We've covered tags following the quote. (""I love you,"" I said.) Now I'm going to teach you about tags that sit smack-dab in the middle of the quote. +Here's a sentence with no punctuation: + _No Kyle said with a laugh she's never been with another woman_ +First, let's put the quotation marks in. Remember, they go around whatever words come out of Kyle's mouth. It's tricky, though, because he says something, then you have the tag identifying Kyle as the laughing speaker, and then he says something else. + _""No"" Kyle said with a laugh ""she's never been with another woman""_ +Now, remember how quotes have to be set off from the tag with a comma? In this case, you need two. + _""No,"" Kyle said with a laugh, ""she's never been with another woman.""_ +You try it: +I would like to make love to you the man said right here, right now +Choose the right one: _ A. ""I would like to make love to you,"" the man said, ""right here, right now."" B. ""I would like to make love to you"" the man said right here, right now."" C. ""I would like to make love to you, the man said right here, right now.""_ +The answer is A. +Now suppose Kyle says something longer: + _No, she's never been with another woman Kyle said with a laugh as far as I know she's not bi-curious at all_ +In the above example Kyle says one complete sentence, then there's the tag, and then he says something else that's another complete sentence. Here are where the quotation marks go: + _""No, she's never been with another woman"" Kyle said with a laugh ""as far as I know she's not bi-curious at all""_ +Now, look at the above example and see how many sentences you see. +There are two. Where you divide them is up to you. You can connect the tag to either the first quote or the second. +If you attach the tag to the first quote, you need a period after ""laugh"". That makes the next quote a complete sentence on its own, so it needs its own capital and ending mark: + _""No, she's never been with another woman,"" Kyle said with a laugh. ""As far as I know she's not bi-curious at all.""_ +If you attach the tag to the second quote, it should be this way: + _""No, she's never been with another woman."" Kyle said with a laugh, ""As far as I know she's not bi-curious at all.""_ +That reads a little awkwardly, though. Still, the choice is up to you. +Here's your chance to see if you understand: + _I can't believe it he said with a grin I actually saw her panties_ +There are two correct answers. Here are your choices: _ A. ""I can't believe it he said with a grin I actually saw her panties."" B. ""I can't believe it"" he said with a grin, ""I actually saw her panties."" C. ""I can't believe it,"" he said with a grin. ""I actually saw her panties."" D. ""I can't believe it,"" he said with a grin. ""I actually saw her panties!""_ +Answer: C and D + **REVIEW: Rule 7.** If you put the tag in the middle of a quote, you can attach it to the first quote or the second. Follow the other rules for adding punctuation. Make sure each sentence has its own ending mark. + **LESSON 6 Paragraphing Dialogue** +Generally, every time someone new speaks, you start a new paragraph. On the Web, that means a double return, not indenting. Here's an example from my story, ""Hostile Takeover"": + _""Tired?"" Rockwell's deep voice startled her out of her reverie. He stood not two feet away. Her father was busy lining up his next shot._ +""What?"" She sat upright on the barstool. She must have sunk down during her daydream. +""You looked like you were falling asleep. Don't stay up on my account."" +Remarkably, her father agreed. ""Absolutely. If you're tired, baby, go to bed."" +""All right."" She edged away from Rockwell, smiling nervously. ""Good night, Mr. Rockwell."" +""Good night, Fiona."" He paused and smiled at her, his hand wrapped around his pool cue. ""Sleep well."" +Now suppose one person is saying a lot. Then it gets more tricky. You have to apply a different rule for paragraphing by looking at the content of what they're saying. In general, paragraphs are made up of several sentences that talk about one idea. In stories, the sentences may revolve around an action, rather than an idea. +Here's another example from my story, where a character is saying quite a lot. The first paragraph deals with her thoughts about another character. The second paragraph is a different set of ideas relating to something she did. + _""My God, when we went riding that day, I was trying to figure out how to seduce you! Is that your game? Is that how you really get your kicks? I'll bet that's it. You find a virgin to be your sexual Pygmalion. Then the minute she seems to act like the sleazy slut you were training her to be, you shun her and watch her make a fool of herself. Groveling at your feet for one lousy kiss._ +""Well, fuck you! I don't want to be a whore! I did those two guys because I had to! I didn't want to. I didn't like it. I hated it!"" +Look at the end of the first paragraph. Notice that there are no closing quotation marks! Ooooh! +""But, Whispersecret,"" you say, ""that kind of goes against the rule stating that quotation marks hug what's being said, doesn't it?"" +Yep. But that's the way it is. Look, I'm not the one who made up the rules! You omit the closing quotes on the first paragraph to indicate that the same person is still speaking. + **REVIEW: Rule 8.** Each time someone new speaks you start a new paragraph (double indent). **Rule 9.** If one character has a long speech that stretches over more than one paragraph, you only need the closing quotation marks at the end of the last paragraph. + **THE FINAL EXAM** That's it. That is all I can think of to tell you about the rules of dialogue and punctuation. Now, let's see if you've really got it. Punctuate the following sentences. Then check your answers carefully at the end. Aim for one-hundred percent; all true writers do. _ 1. I always swallow she said smugly_ +2. he shouted at the top of his lungs I understand, mistress (Be careful with this one. Notice how he's shouting.) __ +3. she loves you so much Sara said I can't believe you're dumping her +4. Tabitha said in a sultry voice that feels so damn good. Don't stop +5. I'll never submit to you she screamed, straining against her bonds you disgust me +6. Lifting his face from between her thighs, he asked what did you say +7. Tara chewed her gum noisily as she said the problem with guys is they always go right for the clit. I mean, don't be in such a hurry. Take it slow, tease me a little first. I want some time to enjoy it. You know what I mean? And how come so many of them like shaved pussies? I mean, why would they want to look at a mound that looks like a little girl's? I think it's sort of perverted myself. (Add punctuation and divide this into two paragraphs.) _ 8. You suck him, Ally, I said. No, you first, Ally replied. I frowned. How come I always have to go first? Because I'm the oldest and I said so._ (Hint: Two people are speaking. They each say two things. Don't forget to divide this into paragraphs.) __ +Good luck! Happy writing! + **ANSWERS** +1. ""I always swallow,"" she said smugly. +2. He shouted at the top of his lungs, ""I understand, mistress!"" +3. ""She loves you so much,"" Sara said. ""I can't believe you're dumping her."" (You COULD have a comma after ""said"" if you choose, but I think it's better with a period.) +4. Tabitha said in a sultry voice, ""That feels so damn good. Don't stop."" +5. ""I'll never submit to you!"" she screamed, straining against her bonds. ""You disgust me!"" +6. Lifting his face from between her thighs, he asked, ""What did you say?"" +7. Tara chewed her gum noisily as she said, ""The problem with guys is they always go right for the clit. I mean, don't be in such a hurry. Take it slow, tease me a little first. I want some time to enjoy it. You know what I mean? +""And how come so many of them like shaved pussies? I mean, why would they want to look at a mound that looks like a little girl's? I think it's sort of perverted myself."" +8. ""You suck him, Ally,"" I said. +""No, you first,"" Ally replied. +I frowned. ""How come I always have to go first?"" +""Because I'm the oldest and I said so.""" +429,How to Make Chores into Sexy Fun,perunaeen,How To,2008-05-12,2008-05-12,2022-01-04 08:32:37,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-chores-into-sexy-fun,Add a little play to your work.,"['Household Chores', 'Maid', 'Sex Advice', 'Sexy Outfit']",3.9,"Doesn't everyone hate it? +Is there one person here who looks forward to washing up the dirty dishes left over from last nights romantic dinner? +Does anybody jump out of bed, missing out on a joyful morning quickie to swirl the vacuum cleaner around the carpet, under the sofa and up and down the length of your curtains? +If you do, fantastic and good luck to you! But if like me sex comes first and housework way, way, way below that, I've come up with some hopefully helpful ways to add some sex to the shower (cleaning) and some love into the laundry. +1) A sexy maids outfit is an obvious accessory to those normally boring rubber gloves. I like black ones. Black gloves, black butt skimming skirt and a very small blouse really work for me and my boyfriend...In fact it takes a lot of will power to get on with the task in hand (I hope that you realize I mean the housework though if not your mind is far too dirty for me!) but if you like the tantalizing tease of drawn out foreplay you might just enjoy dusting away those pesky spider webs in stiletto heels! +2) How about surprising your boyfriend when he gets home from work. Nothing too dramatic like hanging from the scaffolding naked after cleaning the windows of your 8th floor apartment. Of course, if you have attempted this I'd love to hear about it! I once cleaned out the entire contents of our closet and made plenty of room for me and the boyfriend to climb inside. I guess for him it was quite a shock to find me hidden in the closet, naked. It was a great way of throwing things out and sorting through assorted clutter, accumulated over at least 2 years. Old shoes, old clothes and many items representing the start of a new one of the boyfriends' collections were all given to the thrift store. Spread the love. +3)You must've seen the movies with vibrating washing machines!? If you have then you know exactly what I'm going to say and really should have tried it. I reckon it works best if the floor of your apartment is an uneven surface, and the extra noise this makes also drowns out any other noise you or your other half may be making. This is especially advantageous if you live in an apartment with the paper-thin walls of a dolls-house. So when I have these thoughts in mind I sort the colours from the whites with a lot of pleasure and a very dirty smile on my face. With this as a promise the boyfriend is also a lot more enthusiastic about loading the machine. +4)Apparently doing the dishes is for many people one of the most boring chores. For me this is the complete opposite, I would really advise against buying a dishwasher and not because I love the feel of my hands submerged in a washing up bowl! The only situation that I'll have my hands like that is if I'm pushed up tight against the sink with a man behind me kissing and biting my neck and thrusting his cock in and out of my cunt. In that case it's actually quite pleasurable and if you haven't tried it you sure should. Also, if you want your man to do the dishes for you why not give him some encouragement, you could murmur your thanks with his cock in your mouth. That's if there's enough room between the sink and your mans legs. +5)In this hot summer weather, are you hanging your washing outside to dry? Better for the environment, better for the laundry and if you do as I do, far, far better for you. I like to wait until the sun is starting to go down. When the neighbours aren't as likely to spot you getting it on in your garden. The thought of being seen by the young guys next door isn't that much of a worry though. In fact it's quite the aphrodisiac. So as an example, ask your boyfriend to come outside and help you to bring the washing in. He knows it's much better for him to say yes but he thinks it's so he won't get yelled at, little does he know he's going to get great, wild, outdoor sex. Maybe consider doing it like the way animals do it and then it's even more of a special treat and I bet next time you're fetching in the laundry he'll be way ahead of you in his rush to help. +If you have read this I hope you got some ideas about getting it on and cleaning and if I haven't given you any ideas I hope you're all having great sex anyway...however you're doing it." +430,How To Make Her Beg To Be Tied Up And Tied Down,garcher27,How To,2007-09-18,2007-09-18,2022-01-04 08:32:38,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-her-beg-to-be-tied-up-and- tied-down,Prepare her for her first BDSM date.,"['Batteries', 'Bdsm', 'Clothespins', 'Crop', 'High Heels', 'Hotel', 'Lingerie', 'Monster', 'Weights', 'Willing']",3.56,"You have already done the work of letting her know, in a subtle, sexy way, that she would look great tied up and tied down and how much it would turn you on to see her that way and be the one that does it to her for the first time. You have already assured her that you would be so turned on you would so make it worth her while. She has agreed to do this for you, but you hear the hesitation in her voice. Knowing that it will be much more fun for you if she is almost as engaged at the idea of her immobile, tormented and tortured as you are, you must have a plan to get her in the mood. +Step One: Ask her to spend the night with you at a hotel. Neutral ground. Tell her to pack her idea of sexy lingerie and high heels, in black if possible. If you actually get as far as the hotel room and see her dressed in her idea of sexy clothes and ready for bondage you are not really going to care what her idea of sexy is. Don't be picky yet. Save that for the next go around. +Step Two: Tell her what time you will pick her up and be on time when you show up at her house. When you pick her up, be very patient and attentive. She is very nervous and is trying to not let you know that. When she is ready to go, grab her face in both of your hands and give her the biggest tongue kiss of her life, look straight in her eyes and say, "" I am so happy you are doing this for me."" +Step Three: Take her to a bar immediately for one or two cocktails to loosen her up. Say something like, ""It was so hot working outside today. I really feel like a cold beer."" Or, ""Do you want to stop off for a drink before we go shopping?"" She is going to be nervous and be receptive to one depending on what kind of woman you are hoping to torture. +While at the bar, focus only on her and be a total gentleman. Your cum filled balls depend on it! Flirt, kiss her, and give her the 'I want to fuck you' eyes. After one or two cocktails, lean in close to her and grab her hair from the underneath at the back of her head, and kiss her deep and say something like ""Are you ready to go Beautiful?"" Or if she is basically a dirty girl, ""You're making my cock so fucking hard. Are you ready to go?"" +If she leaves the bar with you at that point, you probably have it made. Now all you have to do is play your last mood-setting card and she will be begging for your sick mind to take her to places she has never been. +Step Four: Drive to the local farm supply store. Watch the confusion in her face as your park your vehicle in the parking lot. Say something like, ""We need to pick up a few things."" Face her directly and look at her with a sexy, mysterious look. +Take her inside and let the games begin! Grab a cart and push it around confidently. Start her out small by going to the Home aisle and picking out a few candles. Make sure to let her smell them all like you are interested in her opinion of the scent even though you are looking more at the color and imagining dripping the hot, molten wax on her abused tits and pussy later and what is going to look good on the pics you hope she approves of you taking. This is where compromise comes in. Let her have her way if it is going to suit your plans, otherwise try to sway her choice by saying how much you like the scent of the candle you really want by playing to like the scent soooooo much. She is eager to please and you will win. +Next take her and the cart to the automotive aisle. Show her the rack of rolled chains on the wall. Say, ""Pick one out."" Watch her blush and walk up to them very curious and touch each one. +Once she says, ""This one,"" call the store staff over to assist you. When they come to help you make sure to say, ""We need four, six feet chains please sir."" The guy who works there will not be stupid, he has seen this before and he can see the knowing looks pass between the two of you. It will be a toss up as to who will be more embarrassed, your girl or the worker. But it will be fun for you. +Next aisle, dog and cat collars. You need one leather dog collar and four leather cat collars. She stands there, uncomfortable, as you look at the dog collars. You pick one up and wrap it around itself to see its size as you instinctively look at her neck to see if it will be a fit. Her face turns red and for reasons unknown to her, her pussy moistens as she realizes what you are doing. You find one you think will work and grab four cat collars that will fit her skinny wrists and ankles. +On to the Hardware aisle, toss a couple packs of small padlocks in the cart without breaking stride. You are on a roll and the lust and curiosity in her eyes start to make your cock twitch. Throw a couple of quick links and eyehooks in the cart and smile big at her. +If she has touched your arm, belt loop, started to sweat or you have heard her trying to slow her breathing you have her right where you want her. She is going to be naked and bound on that cheap hotel bed in no time! +Just for fun throw a cheap plastic tarp in. You may or may not use it, although, it may come in handy for that hot, dripping wax. But they are only a few bucks and you'll get a kick out of watching her try to figure out what is for. +Go to the sporting goods aisle and grab some fishing weights and line. Make sure to pick up the smallest weights, pause, pretending to think about it and put them back on the shelf and grab much heavier ones. +If you are really feeling randy, get some live bait. Nothing like new uncharted sex territory and the thought of live worms to mind fuck a girl. Besides you can use them when you go fishing this weekend with your buddies. +Lean down to her and give her a reassuring kiss on the forehead to make up for screwing with her even though she doesn't know you were. Get a sturdy duffle bag while you are there. You are going to need something to keep your new 'rape kit' in. +Back to the Home department again. Locate the laundry line and grab a pack. The clothespins should be right there. Grab a big bag of the old fashioned wooden kind. When she says wide eyed, ""What are those for?"" Smile an evil smile and giggle. +On your way out of the Home department grab an extendable shower curtain rod. You may need to use it as a spreader bar or want to put in her pussy once she is bound. +Saving the best for last, make your way to the equine aisle. Note the look on her face as she sees all of the whips. If she starts to cry, leave the cart and get out of there with her as fast as you can. She is not the girl for you. +If she is still game, have a good time with this. Pick out a variety of whips, study each one and let her handle them. Throw a crop in the cart and ask her if she likes any others. If she chooses one, bonus, get it too. Say something like, ""We are going to have so much fun tonight,"" and grab her hand and give it a squeeze. +After asking her if there is anything else the two of you need head to the checkout. +Once there, you spy the batteries as you wait and grab a few 9-volts incase things are going well later and you want to juice her tit or pussy piercings up a bit. +After you have put all of your new treasures on the belt for the checker, put your arm around your girl and pull her in close. You will probably be able to feel her heart racing as she sees all of her torment lying their together and realizes the checkout girl just figured out what is up. If your girl stands up straight and clearly is enjoying the fact that you both have been 'found out', you are in for a very long night of living out many of your deep, dark fantasies with her that you have been beating off to for awhile now. +Pay and grab all of the bags. The crop won't fit into the bag so hand it to her as you make your way out of the store. If she carries it in one hand and grabs your hand with the other, you are going to have a lot of fun later and she is ready, willing and able to do this. +If she takes the crop and starts smacking it against the palm of her own hand as you two exit the store, you have just created a monster. +Good Luck!" +431,How to Make Her Scream for You,LilliannaMorgan,How To,2009-07-07,2009-07-07,2022-01-04 08:32:40,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-her-scream-for-you,A general guide to the core of a woman's sexual desire.,"['Desire', 'Foreplay', 'Hot Sex', 'Husbands', 'Lovers', 'Making Love', 'Oral Sex', 'Romance', 'Seduction', 'Wives']",4.46,"_Written for all men who wish their wives/partners would have more sex with them, and for all women who wish the men in their lives knew how to really please them._ +* +Frustration...it's a bitch...it can be good, really good, or very, very bad. The idea is to make the sexual frustration great for her, so that when the time comes, she is so wild for you, the sex is mind blowing for both of you. This can happen every time, if you know what to do, and how to approach her the right way. +There are THREE KEYS to mind blowing sex. +1.) Knowing Your Partner's Needs +2.) Planning: Take Your Time +3.) Tease Her: Make Her Wild +No matter how tempted you are, and I know you are, DON'T skip down to number three. Take a few minutes and learn something other women will probably never tell you, but ALL of them wish you knew. +1.) KNOW YOUR PARTNERS NEEDS: You HAVE to know what she likes and doesn't like, not just sexually, but emotionally as well. If she is frustrated emotionally, you aren't gonna get anywhere with her. Meet her emotional needs first. If she is not feeling loved, or appreciated, if you have troubles in your relationship, then take the time to fix it. THEN focus on the sexual needs. (Usually bad sex is what creates the core of relationship problems.) +Not every woman is the same, and not every woman will reach orgasm the same way. Some never will because their partner is too impatient, or her EMOTIONAL needs aren't being met. If your too embarrassed, or impatient to ask why she isn't enjoying it, (if she isn't climaxing, she isn't enjoying it) she will be very reluctant to have sex with you. If your wife/partner consistently refuses your advances, makes excuses, rolls her eyes, snorts, laughs, and won't give you any...YOUR most likely the source of the problem. WHY? An emotionally and sexually satisfied woman will not refuse her man sex, at least for long. She will hunger for it, like a cat in heat. +If you can't answer these questions, don't be so quick to call her frigid. When a man really knows what his woman wants, and actually takes the time to give it to her, she will almost NEVER refuse him intimacy. She won't WANT to refuse you. In fact, once you master the three keys, she may be the one begging you for sex. THE QUESTIONS: +i. What are her sexualfantasies? +ii. What gets her in the mood? +iii. What turns her off? +iv. Is she stressed, depressed or angry? +v. Is she feeling loved by you? +vi. Is she feeling desirable to you? +vii. How does she like to be touched? +viii. How does she hate to be touched? +ix. How does she like to touch herself? +x. How does she WISH you would touch her? +xi. What makes her feel more relaxed? +xii. What makes her feel uncomfortable? +xiii. What makes her hot for YOU? +xiv. What makes her hesitant to initiate sex? +xv. What makes her hesitant to tell you want she likes? +Ask her these questions first: +xvi. What kind of relationship do we have now? +xvii. What kind of relationship do you want? +xviii. What would it take to move our relationship to a ""10"" today, next week, next month? +xix. What can I do for you today to make your day better? Ask every day. At first she may say ""nothing"" If she does, do something spontaneous anyway, like pick her a flower, fold the laundry, rub her feet, let her pick the movie, brush her hair for her, put the kids to bed for her, run an errand, make breakfast in bed, give her an extra long kiss goodbye, and a wink, dedicate a song to her, clean the kitchen for her, write her a love letter, rub her shoulders, plan a picnic, send flowers to her work, just because, ...there are a million little things a woman would love for you to do for her, non sexual things you can do...pick one and just do it without being asked. +xx. Find out her Love Languages (Read The Five Love Languages, by Gary Chapman) Even if SHE doesn't know them, you will be able to recognize them. Make sure your filling her tank with the right gas...(you'll have to read the book) +If you don't know the answers to these questions, it's most likely the main reason you dont have the sex life you want. It's your job to find out. She WANTS you to know the answers to these questions, and probably doesn't know how to bring it up without risking you shutting her down, because women know most men HATE talking about the relationship. I think it's because most men don't know HOW. Men, dare to be different and actually talk about your relationship and how to improve your sex life. Use the questions as a guide. +She might think you've lost your mind because such a thing is so foreign to you, and it's the LAST thing she ever thought you would say. Feel free to print this out and show it to her, I don't mind. +Pick a time when the two of you are not busy, and NOT trying to be romantic. Shock her speechless and tell her your going to dedicate the next (however many days) making the relationship better, not just sexually. Make sure to take this seriously, be open, be honest, and make sure she knows all YOUR answers to these questions too. You'll get a MUCH better sexual response from her once you address her emotional needs. +THE HEART OF A WOMAN (From the book Captivating, by Staci Eldridge) +At our core, women are just more emotional than men. Learn to deal with it. We CAN'T change that, because we are designed that way. For a woman to feel most fulfilled, romantic and loved, she must have three basic emotional desires of her heart met: +1\. Every woman wants to be romanced—and not just when your trying to seduce her into bed. We all have a desire to have a great relationship, and we recognize one when we see one. We recognize a bad one too. We KNOW when we are really, truly loved, and when we are not. If your not really in love with her, she knows it, trust me. +2\. Every woman wants to have a beauty to unviel. We want to know you find us enticing, attractive, lovely, radiant, sexy. There is a reason little girls like to twirl around in princess dresses and like hearing she is beautiful. Face it, you want to be the prince who comes to beauty's rescue. +3\. Every woman wants to know she is irreplaceable to you. Just how every man wants a battle to fight, and a grand adventure to go on, the lady in your life wants to know that she has a place in that adventure, by your side. She wants to know that you need her, (even if you don't think you do.) FYI, you need her too. +This first step is vital to a great sexual relationship with any woman. If you skip it, you'll be doomed to, at worst, very little bad sex; to, at best, mediocre sex, for the rest of your life. Ok, now for the good stuff you've been waiting for. +2.) PLANNING: TAKE YOUR TIME +This is important, because women are like crock pots, men are like microwaves. It just takes us longer to heat up. Or, if you like, women are like diesel engines...once we get revved up, we can go for miles (hours). You're the mechanic. Some women like to be taken by surprise and ravished, but most of us need a lot more time to REALLY get into it. A woman's sexuality is like a plant. It needs to be tended to, taken care of, watered regularly. Being that you're the one with the hose, you're the gardener. It's up to you to water her plant, or it will wilt and die. (I'm talking foreplay here boys, not just intercourse.) +When a woman's emotional needs are being met and she feels loved and secure in the relationship, she will bloom sexually as well. (ie: you have more, hotter sex). This is where asking all those questions pays off. Some women never really bloom because the man in her life is too selfish to meet her needs—and has no freaking clue what he's missing! +Pay attention to her answers, and do your best to provide her with what she says she needs. Even if you don't get it all right at first, she will appreciate the effort you put into being romantic, and the more comfortable she will become sharing her sexual side with you. +For a woman, a fantastic night of great sex actually begins that morning. A woman actually requires several dozen non sexual touches a day. Basically, we like to be touched, but not alwasys sexually. Holding hands, hugging, a caress, can be enough to make us feel the first twinges of desire for you. If your not the one doing ALL the touching, she is likely to find someone who will. Here is an example: +Take the time to romance her all day. Set the alarm at least an hour earlier if you can and just spend time kissing. Tell her what it is that attracts you to her, all the reasons you love her. Tell her how much you are looking forward to the night. Bring her breakfast in bed. Take a shower together...tease her a bit, but don't finish...no matter how much you both want to. The goal is to build up to the night time action. Take the time to kiss her at the door...until you can't wait to come home at night, and she can't wait to have you home. +During breaks and on lunch, call her or text her...say something sexy that will make you both wish you were home right then. Arrange for her to get flowers sent to the house before you get home, or leave love notes where she will find them after you leave for work...in her car, in her purse, on the bathroom mirror, in the desk. Whatever. +When you get home, unplug the phone, answering machine, disconnect the doorbell, cart the kids off to a sitter, or grandmas, or send them to a friends house for a sleepover, get dressed up, and take her out to dinner, it doesn't have to be expensive. Or make a meal at home. Cooking together can be very erotic...especially if its done naked. (Don't cook with hot grease if you go naked.) Feed each other...really talk to each other, not about kids, school, work, bills, health problems, the respective parents...nothing that will kill the mood. Be romantic, be silly, be seductive. Take your time and enjoy the meal. +Later, take turns giving each other a massage...with warm, not hot, oils (even olive oil) tease each other...caress...discover every inch of her skin, find her non obvious erroneous zones, (collarbone, neck, ears, inner arm, feet, back of knees, her butt, her back, her sides)...its different for every woman, and she may not even know all of them. Help her discover all of them. Make her bloom. Patience is the key here. +No matter how impatient you feel, take a deep breath...do multiplication tables, count to 20, whatever works, and keep going. Focusing on her pleasure will pay off for you in the end when she calls you the best lover she's ever had, no matter what size you are. (It really doesn't matter to most women, especially if your focusing on foreplay. If your insecure about it, don't be. Trust me...if you tease her enough, she won't be thinking about that, and neither should you.) +Caress her, kiss her, lick her...everywhere but her breasts and her clit. This teasing will drive her nuts. You may have to keep her hands off of you. Be prepared to tie her (use soft materials, use a square knot.) down so she can't hurry things up. Don't stop teasing her until she's begging. This process could take hours, if you're that patient. +3.) MAKE HER WILD: Ok, now that you've sufficiently romanced, wined, dined, tickled, teased and tormented her, turn up the heat on her crock pot. Focus on her breasts for at least an hour...see if you can make her climax just by teasing them. Most women can, if they are aroused enough. Make it your goal of the night to see how many orgasms she can have. Don't be afraid to take directions, and let her know you WANT her to tell you what she likes. No matter how tempted you are, don't speed things up...keep teasing and her...go slow, no matter what she says. +Find her clit, or let her show put your hand there, tease her with your mouth, lips, tongue, fingers, feathers, toys...be very gentle, and ask her to direct you...don't be shy...the better she feels, the better she will make you feel later. Don't use your teeth unless she asks you to. (Imagine how it would feel if she bit down on you) It doesn't feel good for us either. Make her cum a minimum of 3-5 times before you continue. At some point, she will probably become overly sensitive...back off a little and let her cool down some. Continued stimulation would be similar to her biting down on your balls right as your trying to come. It hurts, and not it a good way. A multi-orgasmic woman can have several climaxes one right after the other...you'll know your successful if she is moaning loudly, begging, calling your name, screaming, thrashing, biting, hissing, swearing, clawing, pulling your hair, begging you to stop but holding you to her, bucking, tossing her head, whimpering, crying, trembling, rolls her eyes in the back of her head and gets as stiff as a board, squirts, grunts, groans, claws the sheets, and finally, screams at the top of her lungs. +Only then do you finally enter her. Even then, don't just pound away at her, find a rhythm. She will be a wildcat...because you actually took the time to please her the way she always imagined someone would. +Not every encounter has to be as detailed as this one, or as planned out, but the same amount of effort should be there, no matter how creative you get. Any man that takes the time to make a woman experience the best sex of her life, will never again be wishing he had more sex. She will never want to deny you sex, but you have to be willing to wait to get her to that point. Once she has, she will bloom sexually, and pursue sex with you probably several times a week, if not every day, twice a day, and you'll have moved well beyond mediocre sex. You won't be the one begging for sex, anymore, and she will begin seducing you, so long as you make sure to tell her what you like. You will never have to worry about her finding another man, so long as you keep in tune (you're the mechanic remember?) with her emotional and sexual needs, and once she blooms sexually and becomes a tiger in bed, you won't want to find woman either. +PS...Every woman WANTS to be a tiger for the man she loves...he just has to help her to bloom first." +432,How To Make it Through Alone,_Lynn_,How To,2007-05-21,2007-05-21,2022-01-04 08:32:41,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-it-through-alone,"You can learn to help yourself through a ""low"".",['Self-Help'],4.67,"There are times in our life that we just shouldn't be alone. At obvious things such as giving birth, going into surgery or getting life changing news we seem to have a loved one with us to hold our hand. The list is long of things that we go through with someone right there to carry part of the weight for us. +But what about a time when we really need someone by our side and no one is there? How do we cope? Where does the strength come from to make it through that particular crisis? How many times do we go through things alone before we just can't do it anymore? +""Why do I have to be alone? Why me again? What did I do? Why does it always happen to me? When will it stop?"" +How many of you have asked some of those questions? I know I have. There is one particular time when I have found it really difficult to be alone: an extremely low day, when the depression hits so bad all you want to do is curl up and cry. The kind of day where the low side of your mind is trying to take over, and coming close to winning. +The mind is a scary thing on bad days. It can trick us into thinking all sorts of things. When I say that it is almost like the mind is talking to us, I don't mean exactly that there are true voices inside. It's more like impressions, suggestions maybe, of how the brain says to react. ""I can't do this, I'm not strong enough, I'm not good enough, people think I'm stupid, I am weak"" are some feelings that come from that low. +But I have also learned a few things along the way that might benefit someone else. I would like to share some of those with you. What follows is a list of a few things I have discovered to help me get through the bad days. It is not a professional opinion. +1\. I have found that something comforting helps. Kids have a teddy bear, why can't we have something too. Hold a pillow or a blanket close and feel the warmth go through you. It can trick you into thinking someone is there. +2\. Talk to yourself out loud. Sure, if you did this around people they would stare and think you were weird or strange. The point is, no one IS there. Find upbeat and positive things to say. If you want to, keep a journal or notebook of sayings. Or just wing it, depending on the day. Hearing a voice makes you feel less alone, even though it is your own. +3\. Music of some sort can really help, as long as it isn't depressing. Find something you like and listen to the words. Feel the music in your body. It can feel like the heartbeat of someone else right next to you, almost like tricking you into feeling that you aren't alone. +4\. Many people will say crying doesn't help. But keeping it all inside just builds until we explode. The tears can be a way to release some of that pressure. Letting them fall as you talk to yourself can be healing. Remind yourself that it's better to cry than to never show any emotion at all. +5\. Write down how you feel right then. Your hand might be shaky but it doesn't matter. Don't even worry about full sentences, just write whatever you think of right then. All the anger, pain, fear, and sadness from inside is now on that paper. Take it and shred it to little pieces and then throw it away. You will feel better for throwing away those feelings. +6\. Still having trouble and no one is home? Go online and find a really close friend that knows about your illness or problems. Talk to them. Let them be the other person in your room with you. If they understand your illness at all, they will ""sit"" with you while you work through it. +7\. Pick up the telephone and call someone you can trust that can stay on the phone with you. The sound of another voice, right there in your ear, can do as good as in the room. Again, if they know your illness and you, they will understand what needs to be done. +8\. Try to take a nap. This might sound childish, but if you can rest while the low is at its worst, when you wake up you can handle what is left better. Someone might be home by then as well. That small amount of sleep can give you the extra strength needed to fight. +The ideas above are just some that I have learned in the part few years. I didn't list them in any order, but more as I thought of them. Everyone having a bad day has to discover for themselves what will work to bring you back up. Maybe one of these ideas has helped you before. Could be you tried something similar and found it not to help at all. +There are so many things that can be used to help us through. Obviously having a loving and understanding family is number one. But not everyone has that kind of support. When we reach out and no one is there to take our hand, we learn to deal with it on our own. +If someone you know reaches out, scared and alone, asking for help, please hold their hand. It doesn't matter if you don't have the ""right"" words. When you care for them and are willing to stay with them, that's what matters. It only takes a little bit of time from your day, but can mean the world of difference to theirs. +\----------------------------------------------- +""STAY STRONG"" +Pulling you down again when you least expected it; try not to give in or let it win. +Evil laughter in your head wanting to get the best of you; hide the weakness show the strength instead. +Getting tired of it all makes it tough to keep on; put on a smile be sure to stand tall. +Tomorrow is another day starting all over again; kick it to the curb it’s better that way. +\-------------------------------------------- +""WINNING"" +How do you stop them turn off your brain, not let them win be allowed to remain. +How do you change thoughts in the middle of it all, maybe hearing a friend through a short phone call. +Can you lose them throw them all away, make your life better day after day. +Knowing what to do strong enough to be done, when the crash is over you know you have won. +\------------------ + _Thank you for taking the time to read my ""How-To"" entry.

And, unlike most men who are easily aroused with anything that is visual, women tend to need all five of their senses stimulated in order to become totally turned on! Of course, you cannot plunge directly into acts of sex until you have made sure your lady is relaxed and comfortable, yet also eagerly excited in anticipation of doing the deed! hehehe Many people use the word 'foreplay' to describe that sort of 'getting ready time' before actual intercourse takes place. I prefer to refer to it as 'making love' to your partner. For sure, it is those touches and feelings of love that make the before-sex sex play so tantalizing! With that in mind, here are a few tips and tidbits regarding pleasuring your lady, that I learned from my journey along life's road. I wrote it for your reading pleasure and perusal, with the hopes that someone may learn something new, and use it to make someone else happy! +NEVER UNDERESTIMATE HOW PLEASURING YOUR PARTNER WILL PLEASE YOU. Assuming it is your turn to pleasure your gal, you'd be wise to devote your full, undivided attention to pleasuring her alone, and forget about your own desires for a few moments. You will find that you'll be incredibly hot and rock hard for her, if you take it slow and easy, enjoying fully her every inch, as you delve more deeply into your love making. +START SLOWLY, SOFTLY, GENTLY, TENDERLY. Initially, speaking 'sweet nothings' softly in her ear, combined with gentle touching, caressing and long, tender hugs and embraces should be enough to at least get her interested in engaging in an intimate encounter. These early actions can also include feathering lip kisses on her skin, particularly in the areas of her neck and ears, leading up to fully kissing her on the mouth, with an ever-growing intensity in the length and depth of your kisses. Gradually move your touches and kisses down her body, paying particular attention to her breasts and nipples. By now, you may want to have incorporated some licking, sucking and nibbling mouth action, especially around her erogenous areas. Use your fingers and hands; lips, tongue and mouth to their greatest capacity, as you advance 'around the bases' - so to speak lol - into your love making session. +ASK YOUR GAL LOTS OF QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT SHE LIKES AND PREFERS: Nothing turns me on more then having a man talk to me during our intimate encounter, asking me questions about how his actions make me feel, and what can he do to make me feel even better, in bringing me closer to ecstasy. Long before our actual love making begins, and we are still in the early stages of getting to know one another, it makes me so hot and horny to hear that a guy is truly interested and even intrigued, wondering about all the things that get me off, and turn me on, and drive me wild. Ask your gal specific questions about where, when, and how to touch her, and have her explain in detail the things that will lead her to an explosive completion of her sexual pleasure, by bringing her to a climactic orgasm. +ALWAYS ASK FOR THE GO-AHEAD FIRST and THEN ACT ONLY AFTER ASKING: This ties right in with the tip above, although this time you'll be asking her permission to perform some specific act on her - particularly when all is still new between you and most things remain in that realm of the unknown! For example, before you dive down deep into her breast, and furiously start sucking and nibbling on her left nipple, simply ask, ""Is it OK if I concentrate on your boobs for a while?"" In other words, springing surprises on her with whatever you are going to do to her next may not be your wisest choice, if you want to make a firm, positive, lasting impression on her. By being polite and courteous in asking permission to touch her private parts, you show you genuinely care and are concerned for how she FEELS about her body and herself as a woman. For it is a well-known and understood, completely given fact that what a woman FEELS is very important to her -- in every respect and aspect of her life, and most especially when it comes to SEX! Yes, indeedy! hehehe Also, asking your gal these kinds of questions, whether it be for permission or just a general query, can be quite exciting and titillating to her. For in that moment of hesitation - when she's answered and is waiting for you to begin - the anticipation can build up in a big way, making her tingle and twitch, and even tremble with expectations of how delightful it will feel when you finally do TOUCH HER! +PLAYFULLY TEASE BUT DON'T TORTURE HER! Since I firmly believe that having sex was meant to be, above all other things, FUN -- teasing a woman sexually can help keep the love making on a lighter note, in adding a laugh or two. For instance, right before you go down on her with your mouth, tease her playfully for a few moments, tickling her gently with your fingers all around the area of her pussy mound -- that being her inner and outer labia lips, her uppermost inner thighs, and of course, that perfectly pink little pleasure button itself -- her very own tiny man-in-the-boat -- her clit. The preferred method of movement to most women when it comes to stimulating their clitoris, is to run one finger in a circular motion all around the outer perimeter of her magic button, and stroking it across the top, in back and forth or circular motions. Take care never to rub too hard -- a gentle touch is all that seems to be required, and it is the repetition and length of time you perform these movements that will make her climax and cum like crazy! Orgasmic teasing is another way to prolong the pleasure for your lady, by bringing her to the brink of an orgasm and suddenly halting your movement for several seconds, then resume, halt, resume... Do that four or five times and when you do finally finish her off, she may very well actually squirt a load of sex juice from her love hole, in an intensely powerful climax. Be careful always to just playfully tease though, and never torture her. Incessant tickling on her most sensitive spots, or toying with her in any way that scares or frightens her, can spoil the sexy mood you've created in an instant, by having the concentration on her pleasure cut off and redirected to a negative center of thought. +KEEP THE THRESHOLD CEILING ON THE PLEASURE DOME! lol That means, remember that making love should be about having fun with feeling pleasurable, good and positive sensations. As far as I am concerned, any kind of pain or hurting should not enter into it at all, no matter if it is directed to the other person or inflicted on oneself. So be considerate, careful and thoughtful in everything you do to, for, and with your partner, in making sure that it all feels good! And, if at any time during your love making session, one or the other of you feels something painful or is getting hurt, even if it seems like a small, inconsequential sensation -- SPEAK UP IMMEDIATELY, and simply say STOP! Then your partner should know immediately that they are hurting you, and to cease and desist from whatever they are doing at that very moment. +KEEP THE PURPOSE OF WHAT YOU ARE DOING ALWAYS IN MIND. Some men tend to think that all they need to do, in order to make love to a woman, is to have a nice, big, hard, cock and then to be some kind of expert in knowing how to use it! lol It's guys like that who need to come down a peg or two, and let a little air out of their slightly over-inflated egos. hehehe Making love has virtually nothing to do with any one-in-particular act of having sex, per se. Neither is it some secret technique one can use in combining a whole big bunch of them together. MAKING LOVE to or with another person means exactly what it says it means -- that is, two people -- usually a man and a woman -- sharing and exchanging in equal amounts all of the pleasurable sensations and feelings that result from giving to and receiving from one another. Tender care, sincere respect, gentle consideration, and all of those other quality characteristics contribute to the meaning of what we define as LOVE. If you consciously keep those thoughts in mind while you are doing it, you can rest assured that you are really and truly, and in every way that matters -- MAKING LOVE!" +434,How to Make Love to a Woman w/o Penetration,Hollywood,How To,2000-10-11,2000-10-11,2022-01-04 08:32:42,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-love-to-a-woman-w-o- penetration,The Secret!,"['Back Arms', 'Begin Moan', 'Careful Touch', 'Cheek Gently', 'Gently Lick', 'Gently Massage', 'Leg Foot', 'Light Touches', 'Repeat Process', 'Totally Relaxed']",3.88,"It was a nice evening with just the two of us. We had a candle light dinner and a bottle of wine. You looked very sexy in your elegant evening gown. On the way home you were saying how much of a lovely time you had at our romantic dinner. +After we returned home you were standing in the bedroom kicking off your shoes when you asked me to rub your back. I approached you from the rear and placed my hands onto your shoulders. You let out a sigh when I began to massage you. You started saying how good it felt when I took my hands and traced down the outside of your arms. When I reached your hands I started to massage your fingers very gently. Then tracing back up your arms I pulled my hands across your shoulders then down your back putting just enough pressure on each side of your spine with my thumbs while placing my fingers on the out side of your back. I continued this until you were totally relaxed. I then reached your butt and took my time to caress each cheek gently. I then continued down your left leg to your foot. I proceeded to move back up this time with my hands under your dress to your butt. I again massaged each cheek gently, while ever so lightly caressing the back of your neck with my mouth. I then moved down the right leg to your foot. Then with a hand on each leg I moved my hands back up the sides of your body removing your beautiful dress. I take the dress up over your head. Placing my hands back onto your head I gently massage your scalp down to your neck. I then turn you to be you facing me. I lightly give you a kiss on the forehead telling you how beautiful you are. With the back of my hands I trace ever so gently down each cheek to your neck. Then with feather light touches I trace around your breast back up between them to your neck. I'm careful not to totally touch either breast or nipple. Again I gently glide my hands down your arms and gently massage each finger. I then move my hands around to your back down your butt and on down your legs. Then with my thumbs on your inner thigh I trace back up your legs. Just before I reach your panties, I pull my thumbs out and place my hands on the back of your thighs. I continue up, placing my face ever so close without touching you so she can feel my warm breathe, as I move up to your stomach, I move my hands back around to your stomach and feathery touch you in between your breasts back to your face. I gently kiss you on the mouth while I ever so diligently pick you up and place you onto the bed. +Once on the bed I have you roll onto your stomach. I then sit next to you and spend a very large amount of time gently massaging you. I start at the top of your head and continue down your back and arms to your butt, were I kiss each cheek, then continue to massage you to your feet. Once at your feet I repeat the process only in reverse and go back to the top of your head. I then roll you onto your back. Again I gently massage you. Starting with your face continuing around your breast making sure I don't touch a nipple. I then kiss around your breasts and let your nipples feel my warm breath. I continue kissing you all over down your stomach then to your moist pussy that has soaked your lace panties. After you have felt my breathe upon you, I trace with light touches around your mound without touching your clit, then I go down each leg until I reach your feet. I then repeat the process only this time in reverse back to your face. I'm careful not to touch your nipples or your pussy. I then kiss you ever so gently on the mouth. Then moving to your ears and suck them as you like. +I continue to kiss you with like pecks using my tongue on your face and neck continuing down your chest to your nipples. I take each nipple into my mouth gently sucking and licking spending ample time. I continue down your stomach to your bellybutton. I gently lick and bite your bellybutton before continuing to your lace panties. I gently slide them off. When I reach her feet I take your panties and sniff her sweet nectar that you have left in them. I then take and suck and lick each toe into my mouth. Starting back up I alternate my kissing on each leg. Has I go back up you begin to spread your legs. I lay between your legs and ever so elegantly begin to kiss and lick the inner part of your thighs. I can feel the heat you have started to generate upon my face. I continue this around your pussy and then on each lip. As you feel my warm breath on you, you begin to moan ever so softly. I continue to slowly tease you by licking her pussy from the top all the way to your anus, I tell you how sweet you taste but careful not to touch her clit. Then when you begin to moan louder and starts to squirm and can not take it any longer, I gently lick your clit. I then take your clit into my mouth where I elegantly suck it. Not to hard at first just soft and slow. As you begin to rock and moan loudly I then suck your clit faster and harder. As you have your first of many, orgasm I do not release your clit from my mouth. Only when you begin to relax will I release you. Then with a gentle tongue I slowly lick your pussy and anus clean. Slowly tasting all of her sweetness, and not leaving a drop. +When you have totally relaxed I move up and tell you how beautiful you are and how much I love you. I then kiss you Good Night." +435,How to Make Love to Your Car,SunrockSin,How To,2008-12-19,2008-12-19,2022-01-04 08:32:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-love-to-your-car,"How to finally experience true, physical love with your car.",[''],3.56,"For most everyone's entire lifetime many people have had an ongoing love affair with their automobiles. While I have observed this phenomenon mostly in the United States, I have also seen the European versions of it displayed on the Autobahns. While the monster cars such as the Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Porsches will take anyone's breath away, I've seen similar devotion to Chevy Malibus, Honda Accords and especially the Volkswagen Beetle. Yes, millions around the world simply love their cars. +Oddly, while some cars will age and fall out of favor, some of the most devoted car lovers will carry on their affair for years and years as their ancient machines keep running and running. I have a feeling that while some people may not remember the first person they had sex with, I bet each and every one remembers their first car. Okay, some of these love affairs are fleeting as people trade in their cars every few years, I don't think anyone can resist that new car smell. +With all the love we maintain for our cars it has been a sad fact that we've never really taken this love to a level above owning and driving a car. Unlike with our girlfriends or boyfriends where love can lead to some wonderful things we seemed to reach a plateau with our cars. Sure we wash and polish them, get them tuned up, perhaps even have a new paint job but we still can't reach that next level, making love to our car. +Well, in this article I will discuss the ways you can actually make love to your car. Mind you I am not writing on how to make love in your car, but how to make love _to_ your car. Yes we can finally experience true, physical love with our cars. +Now, anyone familiar with a lot of porn has probably seen women using the gearshift knob as a dildo, and yes ladies, you are ahead of us men here. Some women have already made love with their vehicles simply sliding the wonderfully phallic gear shift knob and shaft deep into your pussies. For those of you who haven't tried this I'd recommend a few precautions. +First of all ladies, make sure the gear shift knob is compatible with your anatomy, not too wide and certainly not too jagged. The best knob would be a roundish, well worn knob. Of course if you have your own dildo with a hole through the center you could always unscrew the uncomfortable knob and slide your dildo over the gear shift shaft. +For those of you with the gear shift on the steering column, you might want to slide a dildo or rubber ball over the shaft because those mounted there are pretty thin. Of course you'll need a bit more acrobatic approach to take on this gear shift. If your car has a handbrake it can be treated similarly. +One caution ladies, since you can't always be sure where that gearshift knob has been, you might want to use a condom. Yeah, yeah, it doesn't feel as good for the car that way, but that's got to be better that catching some std or something. Also, imagine what could happen without the condom, I mean can you picture giving birth to a Buick? +Besides the gear shift knobs, there are other areas of the car that might fit a lady's fancy. While in college I drove a sport's car which had raised lights in the front with the hood shaped with aerodynamic humps just behind the lights. These were about the size and shape of a man's thigh and hey, it seems a fun way to bump and grind yourself to a wonderful orgasm. Other vehicles may have similar humps and curves that may fit perfectly to a woman's anatomy. +Now guys, it is a little tougher for us, but hey we can't let the ladies have all the fun. One of the sexiest things I have found in a few of my vehicles is the rubber seal that goes over the hand brake. The soft, pliant rubber folds around the brake lever with a long slit down the middle that curves at the top just like a woman. As long as you keep that rubber soft and pliant you can happily finger your wonderful car until it simply purrs. Unfortunately, the brake lever has already popped that cherry and unless you remove the rubber seal here you probably aren't getting your cock between these soft folds. +Speaking of folds you might try some your seats where the back rest comes into the seat portion. I know you've slipped your fingers into those slits looking for change and things. Depending upon your car's design and your body's flexibility, you might be able to slip your cock into this opening. If not, what about the rear armrest? All you have to do is slide your cock into the slit between your seatback and the armrest. If it's too tight a fit, then pull down the armrest and slide your cock underneath it. That plush fabric on your seats will tickle your fancy. Of course you'll want a good fabric or upholstery cleaner to get up the cum stains. +For you more adventurous guys you can try the fuel intake. Now you'll need some soft fabric to line the metal sides of the opening, but wow, throw one leg up on the back of the car and you can take your lady for a ride. While the small amount of cum you'll spurt into her most likely won't cause any problems, I would only try this one time on a tank of gas. You don't want too much semen gumming up your lover's works. +Of course for those of you into doggie style, there is always the tailpipe. Caution, don't try this if your car is hot and bothered already. No, you need your car cold or you are going to have a lot of explaining to do at the emergency room. Anyway, the tailpipe will be dirty and rough so once again you'll want to line it with some type of soft fabric. Nice thing about coming into the tailpipe, you don't have to worry about your cum messing up the engine. No, you take your car from behind and you can cum and cum and cum. +Now there are other possibilities like sliding your cock between the weather- stripping on doors or trunks, but be careful here, one good hard thrust and you may close the door all the way. That's a pinch you'll never forget. +Anyway, if you practice safe sex and follow my advice you may find making love to your car an incredible experience.

Sorry, I didn't know you were already there reading this over my shoulder."" +Let me start from the beginning. It all started when I broke up with my girlfriend last month. I met her at the dog park. She has this great Golden Retriever named Jimbo. I'm going to miss that dog. +Anyway, since I don't know how to cook and she cooked all my meals, I joined a cooking class to learn how to cook. Let me tell you, if you want to meet some hot chicks, I mean, if you want to learn how to cook, you need to take a cooking class. +My first day, I met this gorgeous Asian chick. Matter of fact, I invited her to dinner tonight and she'll be here any minute. She's tall, thin, shapely, and beautiful with jet, blue-black, long hair that goes all the way down to her cute ass. She has these perfect A cup tits that I hope to get better acquainted with tonight, if you know what I mean. +Oh, my God. I'm so glad Jimbo no longer lives with me, as she's allergic to dogs. Thank God my dog, Polo, the pain-in-the-ass Rat Terrier is the hypoallergenic type of dog. He has short hair. Besides, I'd have a tough time explaining my girlfriend's presence to her. I guess I could have introduced her as my cook, but I don't think my girlfriend would have gone along with that. Yeah, that would have been awkward introducing my old girlfriend to her new replacement. +Anyway, my cooking class homework assignment is to make Sushi. Now, I've never even had Sushi. Have you? I have no idea how to make it. I know that it's sliced, rolled, raw fish stuffed with some stuff and placed on a bed of white rice. Gross. Nonetheless, I decided to go out to the Asian market and buy everything that I needed to make sushi. +Of course, the first thing that I bought is one of those big, puffy white chef hats and a red bandana. I figured if I looked like a real chef maybe that would help my cooking 'cause the only thing that I know how to make is coffee (thank God), hard boiled eggs, toast, peanut butter crackers, cereal, and cheese sandwiches. +First, I needed to decide which kind of sushi to make. I learned in cooking class that there are five different kinds of sushi. I never knew that. Did you know that? +I always thought that there was only one kind of sushi, regular sushi. Anyway, there's Nigiri-zushi sushi, which is bundles of white rice topped with wasabi and fish. Since I have no idea what the Hell wasabi is, I immediately looked at the next choice. +There's Chirashi-zushi sushi, which is prepared in a bowl with several different kinds of fish that I don't even recognize and vegetables that I don't even recognize mixed with white rice. Since, this sushi salad sounded like too much work for me, I decided to skip that one, too. Besides, it looked nasty all mixed in together like that. I think I even saw a couple of fisheyes staring out at me. +Then, there's Oshizushi sushi which is pressed or squished sushi. Now, I remember when the New England Patriots played the Miami Dolphins back in 1972 in Superbowl XLII and our fans rooted squish the fish. Well, since my Patriots lost that Superbowl against Miami pressing or squishing Oshizushi sushi didn't appeal to me either and I skipped that one, too. +Next was Maki-zushi sushi, which is white rice and seafood rolled up in nori seaweed. I don't know about you, but I used to live not too far from Revere Beach in East Boston and I've seen the seaweed that comes in with low tide from the Atlantic Ocean. There was no way that I was eating any seaweed, nori or any other kind of seaweed. +""Yuck!"" +Finally, there's Sashimi sushi, which is raw fish, such as salmon and squid with other fresh seafood sliced thin and served without rice. Since I already like salmon and squid and love shrimp, I added some fresh shrimp to my mix. The fact that I didn't have to make rice appealed to me, too. This cooking isn't so bad after all. I don't understand why my girlfriend made such a big deal about cooking when she came home from working her two jobs. I'm glad she's gone. +Step #1. I ran to my local Stop & Shop and bought some fresh salmon, squid, and shrimp that was already skinned and cleaned. I even put some scallops in there, too, the real big ones, 'cause I like scallops. Let me tell you, buying all this fresh fish was expensive. I could have bought a couple nice Fillet Mignons and a six pack of imported beer for the price that I paid for all this fish. +Step #2. I figured that making Sashimi sushi without rice is a bit plain so I sprung for a small box of Uncle Ben's. I'll just throw a bunch of that in the rice cooker. How difficult could it be? Besides, I may need the carbohydrates for energy, especially if I get lucky tonight. Hmm, maybe, I should have bought some oysters. Oh, well, it's too late for that. +Step #3. Once home I washed the fish in cold water and pat dried it with clean paper towels. As my cooking tip of the day, I can't believe I'm giving out cooking tips, already. This cooking class is really paying off. Suddenly, I feel a bit like Emeril Lagasse. Maybe it's this big, puffy white hat or the red bandana or a combination of the two, I don't know which, but my cooking tip of the day is that I prefer the Bounty paper towels for their absorbency. There you have it. That's my cooking tip of the day, Bounty paper towels, for the quick picker upper when making a mess with fish. +Step #4. Using a very sharp knife, I appropriately have a Ginsu knife that I bought years ago on one of those informercials with the guy that wears the big, puffy white hat too, I slice the fish. This is important to note, just like when cutting wood with your hand saw, you must slice the fish along the grain in a downward motion making sure to avoid sawing the fish. My sharp Ginsu knife makes a clean cut, which makes the fish more appealing to eat. You don't want to mangle the fish, especially at the price that I paid for all this ocean cuisine. +Step #5. Now, cut the fish in thin, ¼ inch to ½ inch thick bite-size slices that are approximately 1 inch to 1 ½ inches long. +Step #6. Arrange the fish slices on a plate. Layer the fish and arrange in patterns or roll in slices, such as small rosettes. Since I don't know how to make rosettes nor do I even know what a rosette is, I made my fish slices in the pattern of a classic Ford Mustang. The '65 Mustang is one of my favorite cars. +It's my version of origami but with fish instead of paper. It doesn't look bad. I decided against adding blue food coloring that I had left over from coloring eggs at Easter. I was thinking about coloring the fish to make it look like that powder blue paint job that the '65 Mustang had back then. It was a tough decision, but I decided against it. I think I made the right call. What do you think? +Step #7. Garnish the plate with wasabi and vinegared ginger. There's that freaking wasabi again. It's probably some kind of gross horseradish shit. Since, I don't even know what the Hell wasabi is and am sure that I wouldn't like it even if I knew what it was, and since I don't have any vinegared ginger, whatever that is, I substituted cinnamon and sugar. +I buy the cinnamon/sugar in that little plastic cowboy or they have the bear, monkey, lion or spaceman. Since I'm a Leo the Lion, my favorite one is the lion one. I have a whole collection of those. I sprinkle that on my toast in the morning. Let me tell you, I make a mean slice of toast. The art is in knowing which heat setting to use. I crank it all the way up so that it comes out Cajun style. +By the way, here's another cooking tip. Suddenly, I'm full of cooking tips. Soon, I'll have my own cooking show. Anyway, when making Cajun toast, make sure you remove the batteries from the smoke alarm first. That's my second cooking tip of the day. +Step #8. Serve with a bowl of rice and soy sauce. Again, since I didn't have any soy sauce, I substituted maple syrup. I like the Aunt Jemima kind. I buy that stuff by the gallon. Only, now with my girlfriend no longer here to make me pancakes, I should have picked up a box of those frozen waffles when I was at Stop & Shop. +I'm looking at this plate of Mustang shaped sushi and I have to tell you, it doesn't look bad. I mean, it doesn't look really good either. +""Yum! I'm hungry already, kind of, not really, not at all."" +Lastly, I take the entire plate of that crap, cover it with Seran wrap, and put it in the refrigerator. +Perfect timing, my invited guest is already at my front door. +""Sushi! You look absolutely gorgeous. Jade green is your color. You look fabulous in that dress. Come in, come in. Make yourself comfortable. I'll get you a glass of wine just as soon as I get rid of all these people from Literotica reading my How To story. What's the title of the story? Oh, it's, uhm, how to make friends with someone from the Far East. Yeah, that's it."" +C'mon, seriously, did you really believe that I was making sushi? Nah! Well, I was, I mean, I did. And now, I'm hoping to make it with my new Asian girlfriend, Sushi. That other sushi shit is for my cooking class tomorrow. It's my homework. There's no way that I'm eating raw fish. Double yuck! +Well, I got to go. Thanks for stopping by to read my story. Wish me luck in getting lucky with Sushi. Matter of fact, we're not even having sushi tonight, we're having pizza. +THE END" +437,How to Make the Most of a Workout,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-09,2008-05-09,2022-01-04 08:32:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-the-most-of-a-workout,Freddie's fast fat burning and muscle mass building routine.,"['Bodybuilding', 'Bowflex', 'Conditioning', 'Exercise', 'Free Weights', 'Losing Weight', 'Muscles', 'Weightlifting']",4.0,"Ah, yes, spring is in the air. The birds are singing, the sun is shining, and the women are dieting to fit in their itsy bitsy bikini. It's time to get rid of that bulky sweatshirt and head for the beach. +You can't? Why not? My God, your gut is huge. If you weren't a man, I would have thought you were pregnant. +How the Hell much weight did you gain over the winter? You're kidding, that much? Well, maybe, I can help you lose some weight and build some muscle mass at the same time. +Weightlifting is what you need to do to not only burn more of those beer calories but also to build muscle mass. The more muscle mass you build, the more calories your body can consume without gaining ugly fat weight. Sure, you might even gain a few pound from lifting weights, but that's okay, since muscle weighs more than fat. Yet, even if you put on a few pounds, by changing the symmetry of your body, you'll look much slimmer and attractively appealing to the ladies, I might add. +Moreover, did you know that weightlifting, unlike aerobic exercises will burn fat as you sleep? Yep, it's true, so, go ahead and get a good night's sleep because you'll be looking more like Arnold in the morning, that is, not the way he looks now, the way he used to look when he played Conan the Barbarian. +For those of you who are older and/or who have never seriously worked out before, always check with your doctor first to make sure that you do not have any medical conditions that prevent you from lifting weights. +If you don't have any stored in the garage or collecting dust in the basement, what you need are some free weights, at least a couple hundred pounds and a bench, preferably a bench that has a leg apparatus for doing leg lifts. Cast iron weights will give you the best workout. Don't bother buying those plastic weights filled with water or sand because you really can't fit enough of those plastic discs on a bar to give you a proper workout, especially when working the major muscle groups, back, chest, and legs. +Dumbbells instead of barbells will give you a great workout, too. Dumbbells will give you better flexibility than will barbells. For best results, I recommend using both in your workouts. Mixing it up is always good. +For those of you who are older, those who may have a bad back or knees, and are concerned about being injured lifting weights, and I don't blame you, buy a Bowflex. Granted Bowflex machines are pricy, but they will last forever and have a great resale value. I sold the one that I bought 9 years ago for nearly half what I paid for it new. Then, when I ordered my new machine, because I was in the Bowflex computer, they gave me a thousand dollars discount towards the purchase of a new machine. +With a Bowflex, you can work with a little as five pounds of resistance in each hand to as much as 410 pounds of resistance. I bought the Bowflex Ultimate 2 and I love it. It does everything. Yeah, it was a bitch putting the thing together. It was delivered in 9 boxes and I had to tip the UPS guy twenty bucks to help me carry it inside, but it's a great machine. +Although a Bowflex won't give you the pump that free weights will give you, it will certainly tone you and give you more strength, flexibility, and muscularity. Bowflex, especially the newer models can do nearly 100 exercises and everyone in the family can easily make use of the machine without having to break down the apparatus every time you want to do a different exercise. Also, because it is a machine, you can quickly move from one exercise to another without having to breakdown weights, and the power rods are guaranteed to last the life of the machine. +Also, when you remove the bench, the seat becomes a rowing machine, a neat feature. The rowing machine is great for your legs and back while being an aerobic exercise, as much as it is a strength building exercise. After lifting free weights for years, I appreciate being able to workout at home and get a gym quality workout without having to go to a gym. Further, unless you do something really dumb, like falling off the bench, it's virtually impossible to hurt yourself on a Bowflex machine, something that you can't always say when lifting free weights. +Now, without further ado, whether you use free weights, barbells, dumbbells or a Bowflex machine, I have the perfect routine for those who don't have much time and who want to get the most from out of every exercising minute. It's called the push/pull routine. Those weightlifters out there who are familiar with the push/pull routine, already know the benefits of it. +One day you do push exercises and the next day you do pull exercise. Yes, I realize that this is a more advanced routine but it works well with beginners as well as you gym rats. The key ingredient is to start slow with one set of as many repetitions as you can comfortably do, up to ten repetitions, instead of doing three sets of ten repetitions. That comes later. +Monday, Wednesday and Friday are your push days and Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday are you pull days. +Now, since you don't have a lot of time, I'm going to concentrate on the major muscle groups being those found in the chest, back, and legs. I do include some exercises for the arms, biceps and triceps, with a couple for the shoulders. +Every push day, you do a flat bench press, deep knee squats, behind the neck shoulder press or military shoulder press, your choice, triceps pushdown, and hopefully, if you have a leg machine at the end of your bench, a quad push. After you are finished lifting weights get down on the floor and do as many pushups as you can, the slower the better. I recommend pushup handles for maximum effort and concentration on the required muscle areas, that being the pectorals and deltoids. +By the way, if you have no idea what any of these exercises are, you can Google push pull and/or any specific exercises. There are plenty of photos and diagrams on the Internet of all these exercises. +On the pull days you do bicep curls, lat pull downs, leg curls, front and side shoulder raises, and dead lifts. After you've finished lifting weights get down on the floor and do as many crunches as you can with your legs off the ground. You want to emulate a pair of scissors while tensing your stomach and holding each repetition for a few seconds. You could add side to side movement with the crunches to target the oblique area. Now, for those of you who have a chin up bar, that is a great strength builder to add to your pull days. +These five exercises each day, ten different exercises in all, over a period of six days a week will only take 15 minutes a day, and as conditioning develops, no more than 30 minutes a day. +Start out by doing one slow, perfect set of each for 4-10 repetitions. When you can comfortable do ten reps in perfect form, rest a minute and then do a second set. When you can do two sets of 10 in perfect form, add a third set with a minute rest in between each set. Once you can do three sets in perfect form, increase your weight or resistance on each of the exercises. +For those who are already in shape and want to build more strength, lower the repetitions from ten repetitions to four to six repetitions and add more weight. For those of you who want to lose weight, increase your repetitions from ten to twelve to fifteen and lower the weight. For those of you who want an overall general conditioning, eight repetitions are perfect for doing just that. +You should see a significant difference in your body after only a few weeks of faithfully following Freddie's fast fat burning routine. After 12 weeks following the push/pull routine, you should adopt a different routine with different exercises, as your body will get comfortable enough with this routine that it will not grow as much muscle mass as you would if switching to a different workout routine with different exercises. +The more you can shock and surprise your body and trick it by not allowing it to get too comfortable with a routine, the more muscle mass you will grow. Some tricks you can do to accomplish this shock to your system is to change exercises, change weight or resistance, and/or by changing the amount of repetitions. Of course, you also can surprise your body by even changing the times of the day that you exercise. +Form is very important. Find out how to perfectly do each exercise before actually doing it. If you follow form perfectly, you will never hurt yourself. +You want smooth and fluid movements rather than forced and jerky movements. Also, you want to maintain control of the weight or resistance because if you cannot control the weight or resistance throughout the exercise then you need to lower the weight or resistance. Form is always more important than how much weight you are lifting and resistance you are exerting against. +Lastly, remember to always breathe. Breathe out with the exertion of exercise and breathe in when relaxing before the exercise. Also, after completing each workout, eat some protein, peanut butter, tuna or a piece of chicken. This will insure that your muscles will build new muscle instead of just tearing down the muscle that you already have. +Now, for those who want to take your workouts a step further, in addition to the weightlifting, you can jog, skip rope or buy a heavy bag. Heavy bags will give your entire upper body a great workout. I highly recommend them. Only, make sure you buy hand wraps, wrap your hands, and wear bag gloves. +Start out slow punching the bag, for those who have never hit a heavy bag. It's easy to break your forearm if you just wail away at it. You want to punch with your shoulder, back, and legs and not with your arm. It takes a bit of practice, but if you are doing it correctly, you will notice the difference immediately. +Now, on the most important day, the seventh day, Sunday, what do you do then? You read and vote for my stories, of course." +438,How to Make Turkey Soup...Naked?,SusanJillParker,How To,2014-11-27,2014-11-27,2022-01-04 08:32:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-make-turkey-soup-naked,Just talking turkey. How to make turkey soup...naked?,"['Thanksgiving Day', 'Turkey Carcus', 'Turkey Dinner']",4.41,"Please give me the support of your vote. +* +Just turkey. This how to story is just about turkey and how to make turkey soup...Naked? +Be honest. Being that this is Literotica, you wouldn't read my How To story if the word naked wasn't in the title, now would you? Am I right? So, staying true to the title, How to Make Turkey Soup...Naked, whoever makes this soup must prepare it naked. +I'm willing to bet after she's consumed a couple glasses of wine, the woman making this turkey soup will be willing to strip off her clothes. Hey! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. It's worth a try. At the very least, you'll have some turkey soup to eat. Just in case you get lucky, have your video camera at the ready. +I can already see some of you guys thinking about printing out this story to give to your mothers, your sisters, your mothers-in-law, your aunts, your wives, your girlfriends, your mistresses, and your significant others, as long as they're not another man. I mean, it's okay for two women to cook turkey soup naked but there's something a little creepy about two man cooking turkey soup naked. Not that there's anything wrong with gay men and/or gay men cooking turkey soup, just not naked. I'd just prefer they were fully dressed when making my turkey soup. +""I just found another pubic hair in my turkey soup,"" said Supreme Chief Justice Clarence Thomas to Anita Hill. +""Blow it out your ass, Clarence,"" said Anita. +Seriously though, whomever you give this recipe too, a good ploy and a solid pretense to get them naked, tell them that they must be naked when making the turkey soup. Tell them that it's important that they make the soup while naked. Tell them the soup will test better if they're naked. Tell them the soup will be ruined if they do not cook the soup naked. Tell them whatever you need to tell them to get them naked while they cook this soup. Trust me, if they are any kind of cook at all, they'll want to follow the recipe. They're not going to start fiddling with the recipe by not even getting naked. +""Mom! What are you doing?"" +""I'm making turkey soup, Jimmy, from SusanJillParker's recipe,"" said Jimmy's mother. +""No, you must follow SusanJillParker's recipe. Look. See? It says right here that you must be naked to make this turkey soup."" +""Oh, okay. Pour me another glass of wine first,"" said Jimmy's mother guzzling the wine. ""Now be a dear and unzip my dress and unhook my bra, my fingers are covered with turkey meat."" +Do you see how easy that was? Especially if you're successful in getting one of the women in your life naked, I'm willing to bet this How To Make Turkey Soup...Naked is not only going to make you the best turkey soup but also will be the best story that you've ever read on Literotica. +* * * * * +Well, folks, it's that time of year again. Every year, I see someone buying a frozen turkey the day before Thanksgiving. Seriously, what are they thinking? Maybe they'll be using it as a doorstop but there's no way that bird will be thawed in time to cook for Thanksgiving. +Now that you've had a wonderful turkey banquet, for those of you who aren't poor and homeless as I once was, it's time to make some turkey soup...naked. Actually, I'm still poor. With me still living in the spare bedroom of a kind, elderly but crazy Mennonite woman, I'm just not homeless. Anyway, it's time to decide what to do with the leftover turkey from the Thanksgiving Day dinner, an age-old problem for every household! +You can play touch football with the carcass in the way you did last year. +""Take a right at the Chevy and then go long and I'll throw you the bird for a touchdown!"" +You can mail the carcass to a homeless shelter for them to make turkey soup...naked. +""Why is the cooking staff in the kitchen all naked while making turkey soup?"" +You can mail the carcass to a politician who you think deserves the picked turkey award. +""This is for you turkey, signed one of your constituents."" +You can put the carcass out on the back lawn and watch the birds go crazy picking the bones while you pick them off with your .22 caliber rifle. +""Hey, Jeb, watch this shot,"" said Clem. +""I don't want to watch you killing birds, Clem. I'm giving my turkey carcass to Betty Jo to watch her making turkey soup...naked."" +Or you can follow my How To recipe and make turkey soup...naked as Clem did with Betty Jo. +""Clem Hatfield! How dare you? Get out of my house! I'm not making you turkey soup, especially without my clothes."" +* * * * * +What's it going to be at your house? Will it be hot turkey sandwiches, turkey salad, turkey casserole, turkey pot pie, munching on plain turkey meat, or ravioli stuffed with turkey meat, you heard it here first. +""Yum."" +Yada, yada, yada, you get the drift. The things to do with a turkey carcass are endless, only that man standing in the corner, please put that away and zip your pants. That's just nasty what you want to do with a turkey carcass. What's wrong with you? Get a life. Buy a bagel. +Next year, maybe you'll buy the smaller turkey than that oven stuffer that you bought this year. Now let's talk turkey as this How To story is all about making turkey soup...naked. Before we go any further, be sure that you have plastic or glass storage containers for the extra soup so that you can freeze some. Just as good and as healthy as you're mom's chicken soup, there's nothing like hot, steaming, turkey soup on a snowy, cold winter day. +You'll thank me when you have that awful head cold or flu that you have some nice, hot, turkey soup. Moreover after you download the video to your computer of your naked mother, your naked sister, your naked mother-in-law, your naked aunt, your naked wife, your naked girlfriend, your naked mistress, and/or your naked significant other, after the soup is eaten, you have something to enjoy for years. Who said cooking is laborious and boring? If the woman in your life follows my recipe and gets naked, cooking can be sexually exciting. +""Wow!"" +I make turkey soup, actually turkey, noodle soup by adding in the stuffing. Adding stuffing to thicken the turkey soup is my secret recipe ingredient. Instead of adding noodles, you can add rice if you prefer. Personally, I prefer rice to noodles. I like rice. And, sticking with the recipe, I always make my turkey soup naked. The turkey soup doesn't taste the same unless I make it while naked. +* * * * * +If you're an anal, recipe person and need to measure your ingredients, save yourself the trouble and the aggravation and read no further because I don't list any measured ingredients in my turkey soup recipe. +""Sorry."" +Best you make your turkey soup from your Julia Child cookbook, who by the way didn't measure her ingredients either. Nor did the Galloping Gourmet measure his ingredients either. Just as in the movie, A League of Their Own, when Tom Hanks said to one of the female players, Evelyn Gardner played by Bitty Schram, ""There's no crying in baseball,"" I say to all you chefs, ""There's no measuring in good cooking."" +Much like your auto mechanic does when repairing your car, didn't know that did you? With my cooking done by trial and error, there's no recipe for most of what I cook. I allow my palate and my nose to decide and to dictate if what I'm cooking is good or not and if it needs a dash of this or a pinch of that. I don't measure ingredients unless it's a baked good of some sort. +Baked goods are a whole different category, trust me. Just as your auto mechanics did when charging you extra labor for their unnecessary repairs and screw ups, I found out the hard way through trial and error after making many mistakes. Where cooking is more about experimenting with ingredients and in tasting and smelling, cooking a dish never comes out the same every time you make it. You must be more accurate when baking however or you'll end up with some pretty awful cakes, cookies, and pies. +Let's get on with the task at hand. Hopefully you have stuffing left over. Without stuffing, this soup will not be as yummy. Just as you never considered cooking turkey soup while naked, you never thought about adding stuffing to your turkey soup, did you? Also, don't forget to add some leafy tops from celery stalks to your soup. Without the leafy tops from celery stalks, your soup with not taste as good and look as inviting. +Do you still have the turkey carcass? No? Don't tell me you threw it away? Unless you have an old shoe or a dirty rock laying around, sorry, then cook another turkey or no soup for you this year. Remember the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld? +""No soup for you!"" +Use a big pot with a lid, a pot big enough to hold your turkey carcass, and let's make some magic happen. Fill the pot with enough water so that you have the amount of soup you want to eat and some to freeze, plus add extra water as you cook. Water evaporates while cooking soup, so you will not get enough soup if you forget to add some extra water, about 4-6 extra capfuls. Turn the stove on high enough for your soup to boil at first and then down to simmer once everything boils together for about ten minutes. +If you don't have a pot big enough, crush down your turkey carcass enough to fit in the pot. Don't worry about bones as you'll be straining the soup anyway. If your turkey has quite a bit of meat on it, then don't add any extra turkey meat. If you ate your turkey to the bone, then chop up some extra meat and add that near the very end of the soup making. +Chop up the celery leaves, ½ half onion, a couple of carrots, add a little celery, and let that boil for a few minutes. Take one to two cups of stuffing and add that into the pot and see what happens. The consistency of the soup changes immediately and starts to thicken up some. Soup always tastes better if it taste like more than just hot water. +You'd think that would be enough flavor, but it isn't really. Add a couple of bouillon cubes or a couple of cans of chicken broth and see if the color changes to the shade that you want your soup. Everyone feels differently about how their soup should look and taste, so you'll have to be your own chef here and select your perfect color and preferred taste. +Tasting your soup several times during the cooking process will help you to decide on how much broth or bouillon to add. Being that it's soup, you can practically add anything you'd like, whatever you personally enjoy eating in your soup. I know that mass murderer and cannilbilist, Jeffrey Dahmer enjoyed putting in his soup...never mind, that's just gross. +Sneak in a little Worchester sauce, usually a few drops will do. Okay, all you tasters, this would be another time to do your thing and add whatever other flavors you'd like in your soup. Only, do not add salt. Repeat, do not add salt. +With all the items in the pot already, adding salt would not be a good idea. Think of the salt that is in the food already along with the other ingredients that you've added to the pot. Trust me. Keep your hands off the salt shaker and step away from the pot. Soup always needs salt, right? Not this time, cooks. Besides, you can always add some to your soup bowl later. +Put the lid on the soup, but be sure to leave a little crack open so that some of the steam can escape or you'll have a mess to clean up from the soup boiling over onto your stove. Let the boil continue for a few minutes more and then turn the pot down to simmer! Don't forget to stir occasionally as the soup simmers away. +""Boil, boil, toil and trouble!"" +After a couple of hours, probably less, I really don't know how long, get your noodles ready or rice if you prefer to add to the pot of excellence. Noodles are a staple in Pennsylvania Dutch country. God knows, there are dozens of different choices of noodles in the grocery stores here. I've never seen such a selection, so where ever you live, just pick a noodle that is pleasing to you and will look cute in the bowl. I really like the wiggly, wavy kind that are medium in length! Make sure you have a strainer handy as the games are about to begin. +Carefully take the pot off the stove, remove the carcass and place it in a separate container. Then strain the soup into another large pot. Put the strained soup back on the stove and bring it to a boil. Beware, you're entering into uncharted territory now. The noodle packages will not have this method of cooking listed in the instructions. I boil the noodles right in the soup, it's unconventional, but adds starch to the soup and makes it richer in taste. +After the noodles are soft, add back pieces of turkey and some of the veggies, as long as you don't mind picking though the strained mess. Be careful not to get any bones into the soup. If your carcass didn't have much meat left on it, now's the time to chop up some leftover turkey and add it to the soup. Now, ready to serve, give it a good stir, and enjoy! +SusanJillParker says that you now have the best turkey soup you ever tasted. Soup is all about love. A lot of love goes into making soup. If you were successful getting your mother, your sister, your mother-in-law, your aunt, your wife, your girlfriend, your mistress, and/or your significant other naked, you'll not only be making soup, you'll be making love too.

I'll show you, regardless of gender, how to make some fun playthings using fairly simple household items. + **Male sex toys:** + **A vagina tube:** +All you need for this snazzy little device is a cardboard tube of some sort, a condom, and some lube if desired. When looking for a tube, a toilet paper or paper towel tube will work as options. +To assemble this device simply open and remove the condom from its packing, place it through the tube while sliding the opening of the condom around the end of the tube. Now, if desired, insert some of your favorite lubricant. +This device is simple but effective, assuming your penis conforms to the approximate width of the tube. If the difference is too big the device will be useless. + **A soap buddy:** +All you need to make a soap buddy is a bar of soap and something capable of cutting soap. (What isn't capable of cutting soap)? +Take your bar of soap, ideally the biggest bar of soap you can find, and remove it from its box, wrapper, or whatever it is packaged in. Now take your soap cutting tool and make a hole wide enough in the soap for your erect penis to fit into. +Now you have a soap buddy you can fuck until the cows come home or until you're ready to blow a load. This is good, clean fun even though that was a very bad pun! + **Female sex toys:** + **A chilly self-made dildo:** +You'll have to think of this one a little bit in advance ladies because the prep time is significant. If you live by yourself or in a situation where someone else discovering this toy won't be embarrassing then you may want to prep this one and just let it wait for use. +Before you begin you'll need to find a condom. Size, texture, and color are up to you. Once you've opened and removed the condom from the wrapper you'll need to expand it somewhat. To do this you can either use your finger or any other long slender object, like a pencil with the eraser end first. If you don't want to use an object you can also inflate it yourself like a balloon. +Once the condom has been expanded slightly, place the opening around the head of your faucet and turn the water onto a slow stream. The longer you allow the condom to drip fill with water, the larger and longer it will become. Once the condom is filled to your preferred amount, turn off the water. Tie off one end of the condom and place the water filled condom in the freezer. +When you place the condom in the freezer you should keep in mind its position. If you prefer a dildo that will be roughly the same thickness from start to finish then you should place the condom on its side which will cause gravity to pull on the side of the condom. On the other hand, if you prefer a dildo with a head on the end of it, place the condom in an upright position, allowing the gravity to pull on the tip end of the dildo. +Once the condom has frozen you will have your very own icy sex toy, a novelty most store bought dildos do not provide. + **A fruity dildo:** +This is a little bit old school, but that doesn't mean it's not still a good toy. All you will need is your favorite fruit, a condom, perhaps some lube, and yourself. +In this case, your favorite fruit won't be the one you most enjoy eating but rather the one that is the proper shape for your desire. I'll give you several examples: Carrots, for starters, are long but fairly thin. Cucumbers, on the other hand, are pretty much of medium or long length and fairly fat in width. A banana, lastly, is a compromise of the two being of medium length and girth. +Now, unwrap the condom and slide the fruit product into the condom. If this is your first time using a condom, the fruit will make good practice for when putting a condom on a real penis although lots of guys probably wouldn't mind you fumble around with their ""bait and tackle."" Of course if you don't plan on fooling around with men, then your new skill will only by useful for fruit products. +Now you will likely want to apply some lube to your fruity dildo before beginning to use it. Also, you'll probably want to throw the food item away afterwards although as long as nothing indigestible or poisonous has been added to it you can eat it afterwards if you choose. Unquestionably you should wash it off prior to ingestion though. + **A final thought:** +Now that you know how to make these four homemade devices, all I can suggest is GO PLAY WITH YOUR TOYS!" +440,How To Masturbate Better,Angelscuck,How To,2009-11-14,2009-11-14,2022-01-04 08:32:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-masturbate-better,A twelve-step guide to better masturbation.,"['Masturbation', 'Self-Help', 'Sex Advice']",3.66,"Introduction: +I was once told by a friend that his problem wasn't that he masturbated daily, it was that he did it so badly. After thinking about his problem, and realizing there is no manual on this subject, I decided to take it upon myself to write one. +What follows is a twelve-step guide to help novice, inexperienced or just plain inept individuals, obtain a higher, more satisfying masturbatory sexual self-fulfillment level. +If you have already reached your maximal level, please disregard the following information. If you have not, or if you are not sure, please continue reading. +The following information is divided into twelve sub-topics and does not apply to the ""I need a quick release to get to sleep"" situations. +1) Timing: +It is best to choose a time where you are not rushed or the possibility of being interrupted is not an issue. That is, unless you prefer being rushed or interrupted. If that is the case, this subject will be addressed more adequately in a future instruction manual under, ""Speed Masturbation"" or ""The Thrill of Getting Caught."" sections. +Another timing issue is what time of day or night is best. Are you a lark or an owl? I have always maintained a theory that most often ""night people"" were born at night and ""day people"" were born during the day. This is when our body clocks and Circadian Rhythms were set. I was born at seven in the morning and all my life, this is the time I seem to feel my best. It's downhill from then on. +Wether you subscribe to this theory is unimportant. The point being, pick a time when your energy level is at its highest to ensure best results. +Another suggestion regarding timing is to abstain from sex for a few days prior to the event, if possible. At least a twenty-four hour hiatus is recommended for minimum results. This is not always easy, but well worth the effort. +2) Place: +The place we chose is very important. It should be peaceful, private and esthetically pleasing. Usually this means your own home because here we generally have the most environmental control. You may choose the bedroom, the bathroom (toilet or tub) or perhaps the room where the computer is located. This is your call. +All of these areas are quite suitable, however if you require someplace special the kitchen, the fire-escape, a closet or the roof, please refer to my future articles on ""Sex Can Be Fun Anywhere"" or ""Flashing the Neighbors For Added Risk and Enjoyment."" +An added thought regarding toilets; when asked if ""it is possible to catch a sexual transmitted disease from a toilet seat?"" I am reminded of the reply, ""Yes, but it's a lousy place to take a date."" +3) Position +Along with place, position is another consideration. Sitting, standing, prone, supine, or even trandelenberg are all acceptable positions. Standing on your head, balancing on one foot or squatting with one leg extended really fall under the topic of ""Yoga Sex for Better Health and Fitness,"" and will be discussed in future articles. +4) Lighting: +Be sure you have adequate lighting to see any visual aids, (magazines, photos, drawings, sculptures or mirrored reflections) needed to assist you in achieving maximum pleasure. If none of these things are required, I recommend a soft lighting; coral or red usually induce passion. Avoid blue which can cause depression, and green which has been known to exacerbate schizophrenia. Purple is generally a color associated with fantasy and should be used sparingly. +5) Sound: +Either silence or your favorite music is recommended. If you are using the cornucopia of pornography provided by the internet, earphones are recommended for hands free movement or to prevent the distraction of worrying if the neighbors are overhearing and perhaps calling the police or complaining to the manager. +This also applies to audio tapes. One piece of caution in regards to porn soundtracks. They are usually dubbed and/or enhanced after the filming and often are out of sync with the action on the screen which can be distracting like the soundtracks of a 1950's Asian horror flick. +More words of cautions regarding sound. If you live in a crowded tenement or apartment complex where the walls are thin, hearing a neighbor say ""Oh shit, I stubbed my fucking toe!"" or ""Honey, where did you put the Fleets Enema, my shitter's backed up again."" can sometimes spoil the mood. Earplugs can be useful in these situations. Unplug the phone, turn off the cell. +6) Smell: +This is an often overlooked part of ambiance. Using fragrances, incense or room fresheners can add to the moment. If you prefer something a little funkier, a used undergarment can come in handy. +7) Attire: +Nude is nice but if you are uncomfortable with this stark reality, a soft robe can suffice. For those of you who have special needs, cross-dressing, latex, costumes, bondage or other requirements, do what feels best. +8) Visual Aids: +Pictures, magazines, erotic literature, computer porn, can enhance the experience, I do however recommend the use of hands-free devices, (earphones, music stands, slide projectors, duck tape, mirrors) to allow for maximum enjoyment. +9) Touch: +This is a touchy subject. Whether you prefer, gentle, rough, bare hands, mechanical or water devices, fabrics, hot or cold lotions, or oils, this is your call. I do advise those of you into lotions to use water-soluble. These are better for the skin and the environment and they will not stain cloth or destroy synthetic rubber. +One personal note regarding mechanical devices, if you haven't tried the Magic Wand by Hitachi, you may be in for a delightful surprise. It has two speeds, easy to clean, can stand up to a lot of punishment and comes with a wide variety of attachments. It is the best vibrator on the market and although I do not own stock in this company, I wish I did. +10) Duration: +Again this is a personal preference. I recommend prolonging it as long as possible. Remember, you are making love to yourself. Even premature ejaculation during masturbation can be a disappointment. +Take your time. Build slowly. Bring yourself to the brink of fulfillment a few times and then stop. Tease yourself. Rebuild your passion, wait for the perfect moment, and then go for it! Repeat steps 1-10 if necessary. +11) Afterglow: +After you achieved your orgasm or orgasms to the point of satiation, lie still and enjoy the refractory period. Nobody likes ""hit and run"" sex. Show yourself that you truly care and loved every minute of that wonderful experience. Enjoy the moment. Take a nap. +12) Conclusion: +You are your own best friend. You know you won't stand yourself up, turn yourself off, give yourself VD or forget to call the next day. Enjoy, love yourself. Practice makes perfect. Good luck." +441,How to Masturbate Without a Computer,Katthrynn,How To,2007-05-19,2007-05-19,2022-01-04 08:32:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-masturbate-without-a-computer,Getting off like they did in the olden days.,"['Dildo', 'Fetish', 'Hand Job', 'Jerking Off', 'Masturbate', 'Masturbation', 'Stiletto', 'Vibrator']",4.27,"Man! It's been a crappy day! Just shitty. Work was a hassle and now you're stuck in traffic trying to get home. It's hot. You're tired and you're frustrated. The only think keeping you from going postal is the promise of hot sexy chicks and/or hot sexy guys waiting for you on your computer. Gorgeous naked girls with large soft breasts and round luscious butts; with pouty full lips and long shapely legs. Or it's the hard chiseled bodies of rugged, good- looking men with washboard abs, tight buns and long beautiful cocks. Cocks that make you want to drop to your knees and worship them. +You squirm in your driver seat. You surreptitiously touch yourself hoping none of the other drivers can see you. You wonder if you dare masturbate while in the car. No, you decide. Better to wait until you get home. You sigh. You can't wait to get home. +Finally you make it home. Thank God! You go straight to your computer and get ready to play. Horror! Oh the humanity! Your computer won't even turn on! It could be the power supply or maybe the motherboard is fried. You can't even think clearly enough to figure it out. You must get off and you must get off NOW! But how -- your computer is fried! +Don't panic, my friend. There is a solution. It IS possible to masturbate without using your computer. I know it seems impossible, but it can be done. It involves using some dead technology -- dead tech for short, some household objects and your imagination. It's not easy and will take practice, but you can do it. Here's how. +First, you get your equipment together. Whatever tools you use to whack off at your computer, you'll need. So go get the lotion, lubricant, dildo, pillow, vibrator, butt plug, cucumber, whipped cream or whatever. Take them to a room with a comfortable place to sit or lay and which allows for privacy. Could be your bedroom or could be your living room if you're sure you can be alone. Next, you're going to need to get your hands on some dead tech. This could be a magazine with nude pictures of the correct gendered people. It could be one of those really explicit romance novels. (You know the ones I mean, girls.) It might be an old picture of someone who really turns you on. Whatever you can find. +Got everything? Okay. Now arrange everything so you can easily reach it from where you plan to sit or lay. Yes, lay. Back in the olden days before computers people used to lay down to masturbate instead of sitting in office chairs. I know, it sounds weird, but it's true. (Actually it can be quite comfortable once you get used to it.) +Once you have everything set up the way you like it, undress. You don't have to strip completely, if that's not your thing, but you'll at least need to access to your privates. Then you sit or lay down. In your dominant hand (usually the right) pick up your favorite accessory and begin to play or begin to fondle yourself directly. In your weaker hand (usually the left) pick up your dead tech. If it's a magazine, look at the pictures. Find the hottest body in the most erotic scene. Stare at it for awhile. Don't forget to keep playing with yourself. Study the picture. Let it get you excited. Now, close your eyes. Try to see the picture in your mind's eye. Open your eyes. Look again. Close them. Envision the scene. Keep stroking yourself. Now put yourself into the picture. You're the hot stud fucking the hell out of the blond, tanned chick in the white thigh high stockings and 4-inch patent leather heels with the cutsie bow on them. You're the dominatrix with the whip standing over the smooth skinned boy toy who is worshipping your stiletto heels. Can you see yourself there? Are you getting hotter? Is your hand moving faster over your cock or clit? Keep going. Run your mental movie through to the end. +If you're using a Romance novel or maybe an authentic pornographic novel, your have to work your imagination a bit harder in one respect. You have to imagine what the people look like from scratch. But in another way it's easier because you don't have to imagine what happens. The book tells you. As your stroking yourself or fingering yourself or slowly increasing the speed on your vibrator or slowly sliding the butt plug in deeper the action is unfolding on the page before you. The coeds are jumping their professor for better grades. The pirate captain is ravishing the maiden who protests, but who really can't wait to spread her legs for him. The bored housewife seduces the workman who came by to fix her Jacuzzi. +Now close your eyes completely. Let the dead tech fall from your hand. You don't need it anymore. You see it all in your mind. Your free hand fondles your breasts or your balls. Your other hand is working harder and faster. You see it all in your mind. It's hot and vivid and right in the privacy of your own head. Oh my God! Here it comes... the money shot! But better than you've ever seen it before. It happens just the way you like it. He cums on her tits giving her a pearl necklace. She cums while riding him with his cock deep inside her. They cum together in a glorious sixty-nine on the desk while the professor shoots his cum over both of them. +And you cum too. A deep shuddering orgasm. The kind that usually shakes you out of the office chair and onto the floor. But now you just shake and shudder against the mattress and a big pile of pillows. Now you understand the whole laying down thing. It's definitely more comfortable. You look around your disheveled bed and realize you've knocked over the lube. Damn it! Now you have to change the sheets. You get up to go to the linen closet. You pass your computer and glance down. You see the empty wall socket and realize the computer was just unplugged the whole time." +442,How To Meet People Online,EmeliaBell,How To,2006-08-12,2006-08-23,2022-01-04 08:32:51,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-meet-people-online,1. Basic guide to making new friends (and others) online. 2. How to meet them in the real world.,"['Cyber Sex', 'Friends', 'Lovers', 'Meeting']",4.38,"Although young, I have to admit that I have met quite a large number of people online. Most of them are friends, but a couple turned into something a little more intimate and I've been dating one of them for nearly two years now – next month we're moving in together! +Now this is not a guide for anyone who's already met people from the internet. I doubt I have anything stunningly new to point out to someone who's already a seasoned cyber-chatter, but for the beginner who's only just discovered the wonderful world of online communities and friendships this should give you an idea of some of the places there are, how you can get chatting, how and when to develop the relationship and meeting up in person. +Firstly let's have a look at the various ways of meeting people. +1- The online forum. +This is a good way to start off and you've already found a website where you can start off, as Literotica has an excellent forum where you can chat with others about writing and all things erotic. +The basic idea of a forum is a community based on a common hobby, belief or interest. Whatever you're into, there's probably a forum out there for you. This is one of the main benefits of a forum – you've already got one thing in common with everyone on there. What a great place to start. +Secondly there's the fact that it's very flexible and totally anonymous. You generally have to register with the site, but you can create an online alter- ego and there's no need for a photograph or any identifying element. +Forums work by having a series of topics (ie- on a cookery site, appetisers, starters, main courses etc) and each of these contains individual conversations or 'threads' started by one of the members (ie- 'anyone know how long to cook a whole chicken?') +Other members can then reply to this thread with their ideas and opinions and there's no time constraint on replying – no-one will get cross if you don't reply immediately. +Forums offer you a chance to talk to a huge number of people about a huge number of things with no pressure. If you want to talk more to someone then you can send them a private message. +2- The mailing list +This has a similar community feel as a forum, but instead of you going to the website to talk, the talk comes to you. +Again mailing lists are based on a common hobby etc, and different topics are divided up by having different e-mail topics. +There are various places where you can sign up for a mailing list, yahoo has one of the most popular (www.yahoogroups.com) with a huge variety of categories. Once you are signed up you will start getting e-mails from the list, for instance if the list you signed up to was called rockmusicuk then that's the sender who will appear in the list of e-mails. +If you reply to this e-mail then that will be sent out to everybody on the list, including you. If you want to start a new topic, then instead of replying to previous e-mails, you simply send a new e-mail to the list's e-mail address. +With me so far? +The downside of this is that your e-mail address will be displayed to those on the list, but if you want to retain your anonymity for the time-being, just set up a new account with a free e-mail server, like hotmail or googlemail. +3- Dating or Friendship Websites +Right, now we come to the crux of the matter. +I've met people through both the other methods, but this is where the mice are divided from the men. +Many of these websites charge you a small amount in order to join, but there are several very good free ones which I'd recommend for a beginner. I've been using such sites for seven years and I still only use the free ones, so don't dismiss them as a long-term solution. +Right, now the hows, whys and wherefores. +Dating sites rely on each member creating an individual profile and then browsing other profiles to find someone they want to talk to. This has several obvious up and down –sides. +The ups first. +Obviously you've tailored your profile so it gives a much clearer picture of you and so has everyone else. This means that you're basing any friendship (or more) on a larger number of things than just the one hobby in common. There's also the distinct bonus that everyone on there is actively looking to meet new friends or lovers. +Downsides +These are fairly obvious. Your anonymity is compromised somewhat. I'll get to the specifics of creating a good profile later, but most of them will include at least one picture and that means you can be recognised. Be aware of this. Sod's law (aka Murphy's law) dictates that there's a distinct possibility someone you know will happen across your profile and then you'll be busted. Are you prepared to be outed? +Another downside – you **will** get messages from freaks and weirdos and foreigners wanting to marry you to get residence in your country. Delete and ignore. +Creating a Profile +Do include a photograph. You _may_ get _some_ messages, but seriously, with a photograph you will probably increase interest by about 10 times. +Rules for photographs. +a) think carefully about what you are looking for. If all you want is sex then a naked/erotic/underwear photograph is obviously the most appropriate. If you want a friend, include photos of you doing the things you love – dancing, skiing, whatever. If you want a partner/lover then include photos of you doing things you love, but also some showing you how you are in downtime – relaxing with a book or by the sea, cuddling a dog, whatever you think is appealing really. +b) Don't include any identifying information. Check carefully for streetnames if it's taken near your home, addressed envelopes, car registration plates, university name/logo, workplace or full name. +c) Do include more than one picture. This gives a much clearer picture of how you look. It's all very well including flattering photos, but do you really want to meet someone in person and have them go 'Ugh!'? Be honest right from the start and you won't get hurt by rejection later. +Rules for personal information. +a) If you use your real name, make sure it's first name only. +b) Be reasonably general about your location. Give the name of the nearest large town, for example, rather than the tiny place of about 2,000 inhabitants where you really live. +c) Be very specific about what you DO and DON'T want. If smoking is a no-no then say so right now. If you're only looking for friends, make it clear and if you're bisexual and only want to meet one gender, then let them know. +d) Do not lie or be vague about important stuff. This includes: children, drugs, smoking, drinking, religion, current marital status, weight and, for some, dietary requirements (such as allergies or veganism). This is not a definitive list, but use your common sense – is there something about you that you or other people feel strongly about? Mention it. +e) Most profiles include a section for some personal notes where you can write a bit about yourself that might not be included in the set questions. This is your chance to make a mark and display your sense of humour and personality. _Do_ be original, _do_ be funny and try to avoid any contentious statements. Here might also be the place to list any specific requirements you have, such as a man who likes cats or a girl who is educated to at least degree level. +f) Personal description: follow the above rules. Be honest. If you're a size 16 then say so – then at least only people who like bigger girls will contact you. +Sending a private message +The initial message is pretty important. Like the personal statement section, this is your chance to display your personality and make an impression. Keep it light, mention something they said which amused or interested you. Make it clear why you messaged them – did you just want to chat, are you bored, are you looking for a friend or a lover or did you want to talk dirty? Don't sound too desperate, don't be too 'wacky', it'll just freak them out if they don't know you and keep it short. +Here's an example of the kind of thing that should elicit a response... +Hey! Just saw your profile and was really interested to see that you liked Douglas Adams – that guy is a genius! Anyways, I'm just hanging around, insomnia is a killer, message me back if you want to chat. So long and thanks for all the fish Vermilion +If you follow all this then hopefully you should meet some people you have things in common with and be able to bulk out your instant messenger list a bit! +Of course, now you've met someone it's not the end; there's still a lot of work to do before you become proper friends and especially before you meet them in person, but that's a story for another day.

This article is intended to help. Now sluts can be male or female, but this article is going to focus on females. +The first thing you need to know is where to find your slut. I personally like finding them online. Why you may ask? Simple, it's easy. You have access to millions of other people from around the world, and you can do it all from the comfort of your own house. Add to that that you don't have to worry about what you're wearing, awkward physical movements, getting tongue-tied, etc. After all, online you can take some time to think about what you want to say before you say it. Now, where online do you meet these women? I like local area chat rooms or chat rooms that involve a special interest of yours. This gives you something in common right from the get go. Something in common means you have something to talk about, i.e. something to build on. After all, just like in real life you can't just go up to a woman (or man) and start talking about sex or ask them if they want to be your slut, no, of course not. You have to lay a foundation first. All good relationships start as friendships. +Okay, now that you have a hunting ground so to speak you need a target. You either want to start young (18-20ish) or middle aged (mid 30's-mid 40's and even early 50's). Why these two age groups? The reason you want a young woman (or man) is because they are less likely to have sexual experience and preconceptions as to what is taboo, gross or painful. For example, a young girl with limited or no sexual experience is more likely to be curious about all things sexual and thus more willing to try new things. Their curiosity works in your favor therefore you need to do your homework and be as knowledgeable about sex as you can be or at least the various things you're interested in, especially if you have never tried them before. For the first age group, that's all for now. On to the second group. +Why middle-aged women? Because they tend to be more open minded and adventurous when it comes to sexual experimentation, especially those who have been in a restrictive marriage and are recently divorced. Middle-aged women tend to want to get a little wild and sow their wild oats before they feel they are too old to do that type of thing anymore. They can be just as curious or even more so then young women and just as anxious to explore sexually. +The next thing, is knowing what you want. This is very important; perhaps the most important part of looking for a slut to mold. Now, I'm not talking about hair color, breast size or even body type; although that is important for a lot of people, it's not what I'm talking about right now. After all, if you don't find someone attractive you aren't likely to want to turn him or her into your own personal slut anyway. You should try and be at least a little flexible when it comes to a person's physical traits. After all, if someone has everything else you want how important is their hair color or whether they're a few pounds overweight. For some it is a big deal for others not so big. When I say it's important to know what you want, I mean sexually. For example, if anal or oral sex is important to you then obviously you won't be happy with someone who doesn't like doing those sex acts or is very reluctant to even try them. You also wouldn't want to be with someone who is interested in group sex or multiple sex partners if you are the jealous type. Again this is where your sexual knowledge comes into play. Do your research! I can't stress this enough. Make yourself an expert in everything you like to do or want to try. Wikipedia.org is a great resource to gain sexual knowledge. You can look up a term and, more often than not, you'll find the answers you're looking for. There are other sources of course the internet is full of them just type what you want to know in your favorite search engine and you'll probably find a number of sites with the information you want. You also want to find out if there is more than one way to do something. Often times, when a sex act is done one way it can be uncomfortable or unpleasant, but when it's tried a different way it can be very enjoyable and even become a favorite new activity. An example for this is anal sex. When done properly it's very enjoyable and you'll want to do it again and again. When done wrong it's very painful and can even cause physical damage, so do your research. +The next step is talking to your prospective slut and finding out what turns them on. After all if you can't get your slut turned on you won't get very far; nor will they hang around for very long. Start off slow. If you start off too hardcore you're more likely to scare your perspective slut off than turn them on. Find out what positions they like, fun places where they'd like to have sex or have already had sex, ask them about their fantasies and the different things they want to try sexually. You can also go into personal grooming like how they like to wear their pubic hair to what type of underwear they like to wear. Then you can move onto the things you like and see if they share your interests, but don't be pushy if they don't. That type of behavior will just push them away. If they don't like something hounding them about it is not going to help you get what you want, and if they do give in they will most likely not enjoy it because they felt so pressured to try it in the first place. If it's something that's really important to you and they won't even consider it, then they aren't the one for you. +Be honest and be yourself. Honesty is extremely important in any relationship especially a sexual one. If you tell someone you have a 10-inch cock and you only have a 6-inch one then they are going to be pretty disappointed when they finally find out the truth. Same for you women, if you say you're a D-cup and are really a B then your guy/girl is going to be disappointed when they find out the truth as well. Once you get caught (and you always do sooner or later) you lose all creditability. +Now as for getting together that often times takes patience as well. If you met this person online you don't want to suggest meeting after just an hour of conversation. They will most likely make some excuse as to why they can't and you probably will never hear from them again. Take your time! Patience is extremely important when grooming someone to be your slut. If you meet online the next step in talking on the phone. Again, take your time; after that you meet in person. Always meet someplace public. A restaurant, a mall, some place with security officers and a good amount of people traffic. Don't worry about being overheard talking about sexual stuff because you won't be doing that when you first meet in person. Why? Because you need to feel each other out first that's why. Now, you might do that later in the first date and you might not. Don't expect it either way. You have to feel that one out for yourself though. If you rush it and move to fast you might scare them away. At the same time, if you move too slowly they might get frustrated or think you're not interested. So use your own judgment, just don't expect things to go a certain way before you actually meet face to face for the first time. +The next thing is you have to be creative. If you do the same thing the same way each and every time it gets boring. There is nothing worse then a stale relationship. Stay safe, but don't be afraid to try new things in new places. Don't be afraid to ask others including your slut for ideas. If you're like me most of your friends are pretty vanilla and you can't really go and ask them for ideas, but you can use various message boards like the ones here on Literotica. Literotica has a wide variety of people from all different walks of life and cultures. There are other sites you can use as well; you just have to look for them. I recommend bondage/BDSM related sites for this because the people from this lifestyle tend to be very open minded and less judgmental then most. +Lastly, be protective. Your slut needs to trust you and know in their heart that you will not allow harm to come to them. Once that happens, they will be more willing to try things they normally wouldn't do because they trust you and believe you won't hurt them. Don't ever, ever abuse this. If you do, they will never really trust you again and will be a lot less likely to do the things you want them to if they don't just leave you all together." +444,How To Name Characters,snoopercharmbrights,How To,2011-11-03,2011-11-03,2022-01-04 08:32:54,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-name-characters,Avoiding common pitfalls while naming your characters.,"['Characters', 'Names']",,"**Purpose** +This short offering is intended to make your stories more readable. It is undoubtedly true that a reader who keeps having to track back and reread parts of a story is soon tempted by that button top left on most browsers marked [<\--] meaning [BACK]. +The names of characters in a story can considerably help or hinder the smooth reading of that story. In this 'How to ...' I intend to give some pointers which I have learned over the years, mostly by trial and terrible error. +Remember, things may happen in real life, but that does not mean they are suitable for use in stories. + **Differences** +I always try to make the names in my stories as different as possible. In a story with only a handful of characters each of their names will start with a different letter. In larger works, such as my 'Delights' series of twelve novels, that is clearly not possible, but I took care that people with names which are somewhat similar do not appear in the same book if possible, and have widely differing characters. +Using family names which can also be forenames is fine, but if you have a Henry James in your story you should not also have a James Joyce, and don't then compound that by having a Joyce Grenfell! +You may know two sisters called Jan (short for Janet) and Jen (short for Jennifer) but that does not justify using those names in a story. Remember, when you post your story, that you know all these people very well; they have been in your mind for months, or even years. The reader is meeting them for the first (and sometimes only) time. +The one exception to this rule would be in a mystery story where you want to confuse the reader. The erotic example of this would be where two identical twins are playing at being each other and the respective sex partners cannot tell which is which. + **Jobs** +There are many people in the English speaking world who have family names which are the names of occupations, such Butcher, Carpenter or Driver. In general these should be avoided, though the commoner ones (such as Smith) and the obsolete ones (such as Archer or Wainwright) will probably be acceptable. The thing to avoid is confusing concatenations such as a butcher called Driver. + **Ranks** +Just as occupation based names should be avoided, so should family names which are formal ranks; a British Prime Minister can be called John Major but it would be unfortunate if such a person were in the military, as Corporal Major just looks silly. +This applies in all fields where there are recognised titles. In a mediaeval story John Lord would look odd, and Bishop Lord even odder. In a police story someone called John Constable would seem odd, especially if he were Constable Constable. + **Colours** +Again, because you know the story you have written very well, you know that Conrad Black is white, and that Willard White is black (to use two real people). Colours have very particular connotations in people's minds, and not all the same ones, so you lead a reader to pre-judge a character called (for example) Mr. Green subconsciously by the reader's own ideas, which may be very different from yours. + **Unpronounceable** +This is perhaps the most contentious area, since the names which are, or are not, easy to pronounce depends on the culture and language of the reader. I have used the name Hajji Darwish Dosmukhamedov for one of the protagonist's advisors in the 'Delights' to emphasise that he is a true Kobekistani, as opposed to David Ransome, even under his Kobekistani name of Mahmoud Abdullah. + **Above All** +Nothing, repeat - **nothing** , annoys and disturbs a reader more than an author who confuses or mis-spells the names of his/her characters. Just be **very** careful. + **Pronouns** +Pronouns avoid the excessive use of names. Consider the sentence:- _Mortimer took Mortimer's handkerchief out of Mortimer's pocket and blew Mortimer's nose_. Few readers would claim that this is better than writing:- _Mortimer took his handkerchief out of his pocket and blew his nose_. +On the other hand consider the sentence:- _John hit Harry, who fell backwards into Paul, making his nose bleed and grazing his knuckles_. It is far from clear who owns the nose or the knuckles! Here we could say:- _John hit Harry, who fell backwards into Paul, making Harry's nose bleed and grazing John's knuckles_. However this is again an excessive use of names; a better solution is to reorder the sentence as:- _John grazed his knuckles as he hit Harry, making his nose bleed and causing him to fall backwards into Paul_. +If there are only two people present, it is usually clear to the reader who is doing what, and to whom, therefore the names are less necessary than if there were a group involved. + **Changes** +Beware, be very aware, of the dangers of changing names in mid-story. I read a story in which the sentence 'She bit into the succulent Benato' appeared, and I originally assumed that a 'Benato' was the brand name for some type of confectionary. It took me some time to realise that the leading character 'Ben' had been called 'Tom' in early drafts and the dreaded curse of the Global Edit had struck. +I don't say don't change them, but do it very, **very** carefully. + **Sources** +So how do I think up names for my characters safely? +First I have a lot of lists of first names from different backgrounds. To find these just do a browser search for 'baby names' and a whole series of sites which have such lists, often sorted by country of origin, will appear, thanks to the wonders of the Internet. If this site allowed I could let you have the URLs, but the powers-that-be do not permit it. +Family names are similarly obtainable from telephone directories available on the web. +When starting a new story I make a list of all the main characters and allocate their names separately from writing the story; generally this is done at outline stage, before starting on the real story text." +445,How to Name Your Characters,Whispersecret,How To,2001-01-05,2001-01-05,2022-01-04 08:32:54,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-name-your-characters,What's in a name? More than you might think!,"['Character', 'Names']",4.49,"**_What’s in a name? _** More than you might think, actually. Can you imagine if the hero in Raiders of the Lost Ark was named Kenny Miller instead of Indiana Jones? Or if Dorothy Gale had been Libby Lieberman? +Whether you’re writing an erotic, intergenerational saga, or just a simple description of a sexual encounter, character names are important. They imbue your characters with a certain flavor all their own and can enhance all the personality traits you develop in the course of your story. If you choose a name that grates against the character’s disposition, your readers will feel a vague annoyance each and every time that name comes up. + ** _Hypothetical question for ya’--what if I’m writing a true story about my significant other and me? _** That’s great. Many people write stories for Literotica based on fantasies they’ve had since high school, or to mentally live out a recurring daydream they have about a co-worker. If you want to keep your real names for that extra thrill that you, and maybe your sweetie, will get every time you read it, go for it. +But take into consideration that someday the truth might come out. Whomever you’re writing about might not appreciate the fact that you’ve been fantasizing about doing her in the X-rated theater, so you might want to ""change the names to protect the innocent."" + ** _I’ve heard that some people just assign a name at random, intending to change it later. Anything wrong with that? _** Not at all. If that method works for you, then you should keep using it. Writing is completely individual, and you may find unique routines that are successful for you. However, I think you should take the time to find a character’s name right off the bat. +For me, naming a character is much like choosing a name for a baby, except that I get to choose the baby’s personality. (In fact, I’ll get into baby name books later.) When I start a story, I find it helpful knowing what my main characters’ names are. It helps clarify their natures for me, which makes it easier to write about them and to decide what their courses of action will be in the plot. + ** _Baby name books?? _** Yes, baby name books. Although they’re meant for expectant parents, they’re also excellent resources for writers with nameless characters. I picked up _Baby Names from the Bible_ , a pocket baby name book by the check- out at the grocery store because it had some unusual names in it. But if you’re going to be writing a lot, I’d suggest splurging on a more comprehensive list. The one I use most is _The Best Baby Name Book in the Whole Wide World_ by Bruce Lansky. It doesn’t quite live up to its name, but it’s not bad. +I have another interesting name source called, _The Writer’s Digest Character Naming Sourcebook_ , in which the names are listed according to their ethnic origin. So, if you have your heart set on a certain nationality, you instantly have a large list from which to choose. + ** _So, what do I do? Just close my eyes and point? _** Good heavens, no. And I wouldn’t suggest picking your favorite name either. Here are some suggestions on what to do. + + 1. Think about your character’s personality. Is she prissy, proper, and devout? I’d think about Mary, Sarah, Abigail, and I’d reject Delilah, Lolita, and Serena. Is your hero mean and sadistic? Then Danny, Biff, or Bruce might not be the best choice. That’s not to say that you can’t make a Mary a slutty cocksucker. If you’re a good writer, you definitely can. Just be careful. + 2. Say the name out loud. Listen to see if it has hard sounds (k, g, t, d, b, p, j, etc.) or soft sounds (sh, th, s, h, l, v, m, n, w, r, etc.) A hard-hearted person might be better off with a hard name. Villains often have names with sibilant sounds. + 3. Be wary also of having two major characters that share a common first initial. Strange as it may seem, sometimes readers have trouble distinguishing between the father, Michael, and the best friend, Matthew. + 4. Just as words have connotations, so do names. ""Skip,"" is obviously a preppy, yacht-sailing kind of guy. ""Bertha"" is a large woman with facial hair and a voice like a foghorn. Use this to your advantage. If you want a character to fit a certain stereotype, you might want to use a name that carries that same feeling. + ** _How do YOU choose a name? _** As I said, I use the baby name book. Sometimes I start with A and skim the pages until I find something I like. Sometimes I know the name I want right off the bat. Sometimes I have to name an incidental character, and I turn to my bookshelf, the phone book, or a magazine’s editorial staff list, and mix up names from there. I sometimes think of students I’ve had in the past (I’m a teacher.) and take a first name from one person and a last name from another. The Bible, literary classics, myths, and movies are all good sources for names. Which ever method you end up using, take some time to make sure the name fits. I’ve taken an hour before to find the right name and not thought a minute of that time was wasted. Then again, I’m sort of anal about my writing. You don’t have to go that far, but don’t necessarily use the first name that pops into your head. +Good luck with your writing.

Why there have even been some woeful attempts to make a non-erotic short story on how to buy a new car. I'm here to recommend you take those articles, print them out, then stack them up and use them to soak up the oil leak from your old car. +Now hold on here, there is a reason for this madness, I mean we all understand that your automobile is the worst monetary investment you will make. You've heard the horror stories how a new car decreases in value by $1,000 the instant you drive it off the dealer's lot. Every inch you drive after that decreases the value of the car. +That is true up to the point where your car is basically worthless, at that point, every added mile you get out of the car is simply a bonus and your car essentially becomes priceless. If you bought the right car in the first place, then you will have paid it off long before it is worthless, so the only cost besides gas, a bit of oil, and a few other essential fluids is upkeep. +Now, the secret in keeping upkeep down (how's that for a phrase, keeping upkeep down?) anyway, the secret here goes back to when you first buy a new car. Yeah, it's a chicken and egg kind of thing, somewhere along the line you need to buy a new car, and by new I mean either brand new, or lightly used car so you can properly nurture it into an exquisitely long life. +So you have your new or lightly used car, what do you do to minimize upkeep during the next decade or so? Well, in my humble opinion, the five most important things to do are: change your oil regularly, regularly change your oil, be sure and change your oil regularly, make damned sure you change your oil regularly, and don't forget to change your oil regularly. Yes, changing your oil regularly is very important. +Now I know it's a pain, but you know the little handbook that comes with your car? Yeah, turn to the part about recommended maintenance and follow these instructions implicitly. Okay, I know it is a pain and a struggle to take a spanking new car in and pay $50, $75, $325 or $750 for their regular maintenance checkups for when you hit fifteen thousand, twenty five thousand, thirty thousand, or whatever intervals the car manufacturers recommend. +After about the first one hundred thousand miles you put on your car you can back off a bit on your maintenance schedule. Change your oil every ten thousand miles or so, and then double the time between your recommended maintenance checks (if they say do this every 25,000 miles go to 50,000 or even a bit more.) Now the possible exception to the above is your brakes, always keep you eyes and ears on your brakes. If a fuel pump or alternator fails you end up broken down along the side of the road, your brakes fail and you find yourself broken up on the road. +Okay, time for some controversy. Call it tough love or being unpatriotic or whatever, but in my experience the best type of car to have if you plan to own it for a decade or two is a foreign car. Scream and holler how you will, but in my experience those little sons of bitches just keep going and going. Now I will admit domestic cars are built much better these days and I actually have a 2004 Chevy Malibu finishing up it's fifth year (it's actually my daughter's but I'm paying most of the repair costs) that has lasted better than any other domestic cars I've owned. It has 138,000 miles on it, but it does have some issues. +Again, I've had good successes with a 1982 Toyota Celica lasting 257,000 miles and about ten years, a 1992 Nissan Maxima that lasted 297,000 miles and nearly 15 years and I'm currently driving a 2001 Nissan Altima that current has over 178,000 miles. In each of these cars I've found that the components usually lasted two to three times their normal service lives. It's hard to argue with that success. +Now every car has its foibles and you will need to be prepared for them. You will need to either accept the problems, fix the problem completely or respond to the problem with a home remedy. In my case, the Toyota was know to shed its trim, so all those pretty little swan symbols (I think celica might mean swan in some language), the neat black trim around your windows, well after some noisy flapping I simply watched those slip off and disappear along the highway. I accepted this problem. +The Nissan Maxima was known for its undersized brakes that consistently needed work. Remember what I said about brakes before? I got these fixed each time a problem occurred. The Maxima also had a problem with the electric windows. The window drivers would have a problem and your windows would start slipping down when you didn't want them to. Using a home remedy here, I simply pushed the windows up with my hands and siliconed them shut. That was for the back windows, I had to keep the driver's side window working. +Now you might think driving one of these clunkers is a draw back, but just consider the fun you'll have when you pull into a parking lot and see where some guy in a $30,000, $40,000 or finer car has let his tires cross over into an adjacent parking space. You can whip in right next to him or her, and carelessly open your door. The cringe on the owner's face when your door stops a half a centimeter from their car is priceless. Of course, you'll be secure knowing that even if you did whack their door, it was their fault anyway because they are parked halfway in your parking space. +You will also find that drivers in those expensive new cars are more likely to yield to some ten year old clunker who needs to change lanes, or make a quick turn or even back up on the freeway. You'd be surprised at the respect you get on the road driving one of these beauties. +Ah, but now you're wondering what this has to do with sex. Well, if your car is nearly 10 years old and your love life is anything like mine, you will remember how nice it was 10 years ago when you were actually getting some. So now, when you've finally worked up an erection and walk into the bedroom to have a romp with your wife and are told to ""...take it out in the back yard,"" you have someplace to go. +Instead of taking it out into the back yard, you simply take it out to your car, where you can remember the times you had sex. Hell, back then you probably had sex in that very car. Now all you got to do is lean back the seat, unzip your zipper and remember the cramped, painful and sweaty sex you had in the car. Probably some of the best sex you ever had, well maybe. Besides, those cum stains on a car this old is a good thing, shows your passengers you still got it. +So there you have it, a guide on how to not buy a new car." +447,How To Open Your Relationship,quietbutkinky,How To,2007-05-09,2007-05-09,2022-01-04 08:32:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-open-your-relationship,How to make open relationships work.,"['Open Relationship', 'Relationship Advice']",4.23,"**_(A Beginner's Guide)_** +So you've decided you and your partner want an open relationship. For the sake of simplicity let's assume right now it's just you and your partner which will be considered the primary partners in this relationship. While there are many types and variations of open relationships I will be focusing on what I know as I don't feel qualified to discuss what I haven't experienced yet myself. In this scenario the most important relationship is the one between you and your partner. Together you've made a decision you want an open relationship. Or have you? +Let's take a step back. Do you know why you are doing this? Do you honestly want an open relationship? Do you know what this entails? Is the bond between you and your partner strong enough to withstand all the guilt, jealousy and other possible strains this may put on your relationship? +I wish I had taken the time to ask myself these questions before jumping unprepared into my first open relationship. +So here's a few suggestions I have for all the other beginner's out there, it's worked for me so far, so I hope it will work for you but as we all know nothing in this world is guaranteed as far as relationships. + **1\. Trust your partner** +How do you achieve this? How do you know he or she won't run off with someone else if they have the chance? Maybe he'll dump you and run off with that cute girl he fucked the other day. That's what happened with my first open relationship and what made it worse was he had my permission to fuck her, at least the first time. So I tried to do what everyone does, to learn from their relationship mistakes. The first open relationship was a young one in all meanings of the word, at least for me, it was my first boyfriend of any type, I was young, naïve and had only known him for about a month before I agreed to try something new. So I suggest you don't try adding spice to the relationship until you know you have a very solid one with your partner to start with. +If you don't trust them completely, with your life, your emotions, your mental health, or even the temptation that adding another person to your sex life will bring, don't do it. I can only say time and unique, often stressful situations will show you who your truest friends are. I'm not saying to put yourself in these situations voluntarily is a good idea, but I know my best friends have stood the test of time and been by my side when I needed a hug and a shoulder to cry on. I can only say I'm very lucky my current partner has been there for me as a good friend for years before we ever thought of starting this kind of relationship and it's probably the only reason this works for us. + **2\. Communicate openly and honestly with your partner** +It's a great idea to talk to your partner about your sex life, I'm sure many of us can take a few cues from Hikergirl (great how-to by the way). Talk about what turns you on, your fantasies, what movie stars you would be naughty with if you could. And for many people that's as far as it needs to go. I see nothing wrong with that, discussing new things can turn you on and be foreplay for your own sex life with your partner, leading to a night of great sex and it may stop right there. But for some if the conversation keeps coming back to the ideas of including a third or fourth person or more in your relationship, temporarily or permanently, at least explore the idea. How would you go about it? Possible complications, concerns? If one person believes they would get too jealous or it's not for them the other person should respect that and not push their ideas on the other one, trying to force them to act out fantasies they don't want to happen, some things are not meant to be acted out and only to be dreamed of. + **3\. Be open minded and have fun, safely** +However a time and place may happen when you have a partner you trust and has the same desire as you to try something new. In this case a three or four or moresome can work if a few ground rules are laid out. +A). Be honest and open about your concerns and feelings at all times with all people participating +B). All participants should meet first in a non-sexual place to discuss rules, expectations and fears. Agree on basic rules such as: if anyone at anytime feels uncomfortable they can call a stop to all actions they are engaged in or watching. +C). At a later time when engaged in sexual and intimate acts, have fun but be respectful of others feelings and respect all rules agree upon previously. +D). Meet up later after the sex is over to see how everyone feels after that fact, hopefully everyone had an okay time, or at the very least wasn't hurt. The most important thing is that everyone is okay with all that happened and went on. +Jealousy, guilt, excitement, nervousness, and an unexplained inability to get hard when another male is in the room may occur. Anything can occur in such a situation and expectations that a threesome will be the best mind-blowing sex ever is silly. I know the best sex is after some one has gotten to know you and knows what you like so the first time with someone new might be the worst, especially if there's the added pressure of others watching. The point is to make the best of it and if someone just isn't ready for that kind of experience to not try to push it on them. I thoroughly enjoyed my first and only foursome experience and was eager to repeat it but with more people there are more relationships to consider. After sitting down and reviewing what happened we both liked the girl of the other couple but felt uneasy around the guy so it hasn't happened again yet. But one day we hope to find another couple we feel comfortable with. +Always remember. An open relationship is many times harder then a normal one. People get jealous. People get scared. And stupid things will happen. So long as you can talk about these things though, this could be an amazing adventure.

Try as many as you like in each session you are intimate. +Here are some favorites: +With cock in mouth getting sucked up and down or keeping cock bottomed out in your throat, do this - both hands are scratching balls and scrotum and below (taint), in the middle and on both sides - this feels AWESOME!! +Just make sure area is nice and super wet. You can lick it or spit on it or apply it to your hand and then to the area. Spit lube cream lotion oil, whatever you have, remember there is no wrong lubricant and there is no wrong way. +Some guys want your fingertip or a knuckle or the whole finger or a toy in their butt and some don't. It's a very sensitive area so definitely explore and check reactions. Both you and he may be pleasantly surprised. +Caress thighs and the whole general area or run fingernails on the skin - oooh shiver :-) +Scratch balls all around especially on the sides at the seams where legs meet. +All up and down the sides and then the front of the sack. +They may even like it when you pinch some scrotum skin and pull it outwards a little bit and / or just rub it between your fingertips a little roughly or twist it. +Then tiny little bites all over the scrotum to make him feel fantastic. +All around the anus with licks sucking-kisses nibbles is oh so damn good. +If he's amenable, some gentle prostate massage is usually welcome. Some guys want it hard and fast. +Give them what's they want. +So yeah, the whole damn area from asshole to perineum to scrotum to balls to base of cock to shaft to head/frenulum should be wet and stroked scratched kissed licked nibbled on bitten chewed upon sucked pulled pushed twisted pinched slurped and be snacked upon. +There should be some moaning on your side too so they can tell you are enjoying doing this for them. +You making the right noises drives men wild and many times makes the whole session last a lot less longer. +Use your throat - take it in till his cockhead hits your throat and use your throat to squeeze that head and just contract around it if you can. +Alternatively do short strokes making the head hit your throat as that may make him cum. +When sucking, sometimes go all the way down and all the way up instead of just doing short sucks halfway or just sucking the head. +It's great. +Sometime with full strokes, once he is all the way in, stay down there for a bit feeling his full cock in your mouth. +Some advanced gifted women can actually stick out their tongue there and lick balls while his cock is all the way in. Try it. +It's frickin' amazing!! +When using your hands, use a lot of lube or oil or spit and milk the cock with one hand or with both hands. +Either going up or going down, but not both, usually slowly and sensuously. Try different pressures. +It's absolutely delightful to men. +Try one hand at the base of the cock in a V shape (two fingers) or encircling (thumb and finger)- this is usually very nice and stabilizing and also feels good as the other hand slowly milks. +Sometimes one hand on top as a roof just putting pressure on the cockhead as the other milks feels just heavenly. +Sometimes try this: make a cage of one hand with four fingers down and use it up and down hitting cockhead with the palm. Up and down at a slow to medium speed. Then as you go along, try speeding up and see his reaction. Many guys cum from just this. +Sometimes just use one hand or twist and play with the head and frenulum with one hand while the other hand strokes shaft and balls. +While sucking his cock, take a break and jerk off the cock now and then. +Use different speeds. +Use one hand then the other. +Use different grips regular and then overhand or backwards (thumb down). +Do it while sitting on top of him facing him jerking his cock in front of you towards his face. +Or same position but with his cock behind you and you reaching behind with your hands masturbating him while you watch his face and talk dirty. +Or sit on top Facing away from him with cock in front of you jerking it towards his feet. Or same position but with his cock behind you and you stroking him as you talk about how good it would feel inside you. You can then turn around and look at him as you talk and stroke him. It will drive him wild. +Or sitting behind him encircling him with your arms jacking his hard cock and making him spray his seed all over. One hand can stroke cock while the other caresses stomach or pubes or just play with the balls. +Or laying down in front of him on your stomach worshipping that cock. +Or on your knees sucking that dick for all its worth. +Remember, these are all options available to you as you play and pleasure each other. +Suck it slow Or suck it fast, a little bit or all the way up and down. +Some like to add a twist by turning your mouth on the way up or on the way down or both. +Twist with your hand or your mouth. +All these options and techniques are good. +See how he responds and adjust. +Sometime surprise him and do what you want. That's very exciting to a man. Just be so damn hungry for it that you don't care what he is doing what he wants what he prefers - it's all about you and your voracious desire. +Other times, serve him - literally do what he wants and make him feel like a king. +Sometimes go very very sloooow or choose the opposite and jackhammer it very fast. These two can be used within seconds of each other or you can do only one thing the whole session. Tease him. That's usually very helpful. +When getting close to orgasm put into turbo mode until he comes, if he likes that. Or take him to the edge and slow or stop until you're sure he won't come and then start again. +Anyway, if you choose to, when you decide to end it, to put him out of his misery, to stop the beautiful torture, start the last time and then don't stop, until he blows. +Please TALK DIRTY +Most Guys LOVE that. +When he starts to cum, keep doing whatever you are doing and keep going unless he asks you to stop or slow down or let go (very rare). +Also, swallow every last drop. Men appreciate this attention to detail. +Milk it / suck it / stroke it / push out slowly using hands from balls to head for a minute afterwards as well, unless too sensitive, because there's usually a few more drops in there that you absolutely want. +Let it all come out and take it on the tip of your tongue. +It's just beautiful. +Look at him, smile big, (maybe naughty, maybe innocently) and thank him. +He will love it. +Don't try to kiss him unless he is into that. Some guys like it but most guys don't. +Afterwards, you both can cuddle if both like that. +If he wants it, please bring him some food and drink or let him rest sleep relax etc. +The after effects are best with no stress no talk no nothing. +Just savor each other and what you have shared. It's so powerful and intimate when there are no distractions. +Now remember, either he will be energized or he will be totally drained and relaxed. +Both are fine. It happens. Accept whatever it is. +By the way, this ejaculate sweet or salty or bitter or sour white creamy cum is highly nutritious and has a lot of healing life force energy. +Don't ever waste this energy. +Always swallow. +It will only help you in myriad ways. +:-) +The above essay is all first hand experience that I've had. +This is how I like to get a blow job / hand job and I usually come screaming and then I laugh for a good twenty seconds or more because it was so fucking great!! +I'm very lucky and I feel extremely grateful. +Thank you, all you beautiful amazing giving talented sexy caring sharing ladies. +Happy new year." +449,How to Panty Your Husband,happywife82,How To,2012-09-03,2012-09-03,2022-01-04 08:32:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-panty-your-husband,One wife's advice on adopting a fem-led marriage.,"['Cuckold', 'Fetish', 'Hotwife', 'Humiliation', 'Kink', 'Small Penis']",4.35,"When I meet new women dipping their toes in the kinky lifestyle, one question I'm often asked is, ""Why would you panty your husband?"" +Gosh, where to start. First a disclaimer: Not all pantied men have small penises. However, the term ""pantied"" usually encompasses an entire set of kinky activities including adopting a more female-led relationship, submission, and erotic humiliation. +Yes, a lot of women like their guys in panties - and a big cock in panties can be sexy as hell! But a pantied husband, in my experience, is most often a husband with shortcomings ... and everyone in the relationship not only acknowledges it - but celebrates it. +So the first reason to panty your man is acceptance. If his penis fits into a snug little pair of panties, he is tiny. He knows it, you know it, the question is - is anyone bringing this little fact out in the open. When you do, your man will likely feel incredible relief. He just wants to be able to talk about, and sexualize, his small penis. Give him a chance to showcase his cute little guy! +Another thing to realize is this isn't necessarily some huge lifestyle switch (though it can be). It's sexual play, intended to help adults have fun and grow close. Much of what you see online is extreme and exaggerated! Keep that in mind. Pantying your man does NOT mean you need to go sleeping with other guys the next day. Some couples do build on pantying; however, many keep it as a part of their sex lives. +You are always allowed to have your man take you like a wild animal. He's your husband, after all! Many men are extremely macho, despite being secretly pantied at home. +Pantying your man will, in my experience, cause an immediate shift in the balance of power in your home and in your relationship. Even ""tough guys"" often soften up, become more submissive, and willing to help. +Those are just a few of the reasons why. Let's talk about how. +Starting out slowly is a good idea. ""Honey, I had a wicked thought - try on these panties for me!"" He might be reluctant, but you will know his true reaction by the reaction of his little guy. If your man has a small penis, and you have him strip and step into panties for you as you ohh and ahh, I can almost guarantee he will get hard, and instantly. +If his body is responsive, you are off and running ... on the way to a sweeter, submissive husband. Isn't that what we all want, girls? Next you can buy him panties, or even take him shopping. Have a sales girl walk him around the store if you are daring and naughty! +Give him a special panty drawer, so you don't ""get them confused."" What you are really doing is getting him very used to the idea that he now wears panties. So, do you want him in panties and a Victoria's Secret night shirt every night? Let him know. Start to lay down ground rules. +Gradually show him the balance of power is shifting in your home. Maybe your routine becomes he gets home from work, undresses in front of you, and showers with the curtain open. There's no need for modesty, let him know his little penis hardly shocks you. He can change in front of you, too. +Ladies, use your charms. Give his little penis a soft, warm blowjob when he listens. Or give him a tender handjob ... switching to just two fingers to emphasize how tiny he is. Another common aspect of a pantied husband / female- led relationship is to switch up the way you make love. Feel free to let your special guy know it's time for ""little penis"" sex, or ""sissy sex."" Then after he tries to satisfy you, have him use a dildo on you. +Of course, point out the significant difference. A small penis can't work in so many positions, such as a man sitting on the couch and a woman straddling him (facing him or facing away). Hint at how you miss real sex, and tell him his main duty is to please you orally. He'll be an expert in no time! +Remember ladies, a pantied hubby wants to worship his wife, so give him every reason to. Dress sexy, wear stockings, garters, and let your wild side out. Couples in the hotwife or fem-led lifestyles often report better health: If your body is on display constantly, chances are you want to get and stay fit. +In short (no pun intended), pantying your man will probably bring you two closer than you've ever been. Take the lifestyle any direction you wish ... it's your sexlife. Read blogs, read sites such as Literotica, and keep your little man guessing with what naughty suggestion you'll have next.

Each one has taught 'me' what feels good, what they like (or don't like) and has given me the kind of experience that in those terms might make me a bit of an expert so to speak. +Secondly, I also had the unique and rare opportunity to prove that talent on two bonafide lesbians. (And please, don't be sending me hate mail for saying, or claiming that.) Truth of the matter is, I was given that rare opportunity to do so out of real curiosity to see if a man could in fact perform in that area just as well as another woman could. I can honestly state that both women enjoyed the experience, one of which had previously had difficulty even reaching orgasm through oral intercourse 'with' other women, yet was able to do so with me much to everyone's surprise. +So, having said that, allow me to share some of my own personal insights and techniques. +For starters, have fun. Sex should be fun after all. It's meant to be an enjoyable experience, for both parties. Sure, an orgasm feels great, but as they say, getting there is half the fun. So why rush it? +Setting the mood. +It's important that for a prolonged period of oral sex play, that both parties be as comfortable and as relaxed as possible. Make sure you have plenty of space. Don't be afraid to change positions periodically either. It keeps things from becoming tedious (on both sides) and heightens the affects of differing sensations. +Like any good feast, it takes plenty of preparation. Use your senses, and I mean that literally, all six of them. There is nothing more sensual or more intimate than preparing your partner (and yourself) for what can be one of the most intense physical experiences possible. So lets not just jump into anything. Lets first off enjoy what we're looking at. Lets admire, actually look at...and experience the beauty of that treasure we're about to so intimately come into contact with. Guy's (and Gals too!) Taking the time to actually do that can enhance your partner's desire and arousal level. (This is about having fun remember?) So explore with your eyes, your mind, and after a while, gently, lightly with your fingers. Tease, caress and tantalize your partner in preparation for what's to come. (No pun intended). Next, enjoy her smell, the aroma of her sensuality. This type of activity certainly involves a certain amount of personal hygiene, but the last thing I want to be smelling is a rose garden. We all exude a certain chemical smell that is meant to entice and arouse one another. Don't destroy that or cover it up with body oils or soaps too soon before oral sex play. Let that feast preparation produce the natural lubricants and odors designed to stimulate and enhance one's desires. It's important to note here, that giving the pleasure to our partner through oral gratification can also be a very pleasurable experience as well. Let yourself enjoy and savor the taste as well as the smell of your partner, along with the sensation of touch, moisture, heat and sound. +Yes sound. Communicate. +Guys, you might actually consider yourself a real tongue-stud. And the last person you were with might even have told you that you were. But it doesn't mean the person you're with now will find, or even think the same thing. The reality is, what may work or feel good for one woman, might not work or feel good for the next. It is here where communication is key, for both parties. And once again, if you're already being this intimate to begin with, then why not be intimate enough to share with one another what does feel good, and what doesn't. And there's lots of ways to communicate what we like, or what we're enjoying. So lets not be afraid to express that, or show that. Encouragement also goes a long ways. +As I've already mentioned, every person is different. Be ready to adapt or change from one technique to another. There is also something to be said for differing sensations, where one doesn't feel as good now, it may very well feel really good a little later. +Soft and slow. +It's a good place to start. And I don't mean directly on the clitoris either. I'm talking about getting her aroused, excited, ""wanting"" that tongue on the clitoris. But it's also about getting ""you"" to ""want"" to start licking that clit too. So once again, lets start with some gentle kisses, some light flicking licks of the tongue on other surrounding areas. Let her clit be aware that you're down there without actually introducing yourself. Take the time to explore her, enjoy her smell, her taste, and let her know that you are in the process. Trust me, she'll be able to tell if you are, or you aren't. And that can make all the difference in the world. They don't call them lips for nothing. Kiss them, gently or lightly suck them, and move on. Kiss and lick those soft tender areas between her legs and her pussy, without actually touching her there. (I thought about using the word vagina here, but the last thing I want to do is sound clinical. And besides, I personally think pussy is a sexy word to describe a woman's femininity). +Allow the tip of your tongue to explore her, let it gently, and softly slither just inside the opening of her lips, top to bottom, and back again. But once again, take your time, we're not in any kind of a rush here (or shouldn't be yet anyway). Hopefully by this time, that so-far neglected clit is actually ready for some direct and indirect attention. And clits, just like cocks, come in all shapes and sizes. (Yeah, they really do). They can also be very sensitive, to supersensitive. And you need to be sensitive to that as well. Sometimes immediate direct contact and stimulation can be too much too soon. Especially if you begin flicking your tongue against it like it was a tootsie- pop and you're anxious to get to the chocolate center. That might be your desire, but it might not be hers. +Once again, taste the candy, take your time. Those first slow, light gentle caresses of the tongue can do wonders for allowing a woman's clitoris to adjust, and prepare itself for more forceful, and harder stimulation. Let her tell you when, whether verbally, or physically. And Gal's, please don't be afraid to point that out either. Those first few minutes of slow tender tongue-touches can become less than enjoyable if you don't let us know it's ok to turn things up a notch or two. Or...to turn them back down again for a while if that's what you enjoy. +Techniques. +There are a lot of varying techniques. And what might feel good for some women, might not feel as good for another. So once again, listen to her body language, her sighs and moans to let you know if what you're doing is a good thing. Or even better, telling your partner if something feels really good...or just nice, helps a lot as well. If you want it softer, harder, slower or faster, then say so. A good lover listens. A better lover shares. +Like the head of the penis, (too clinical?) ok...prick. The head of a woman's exposed clitoris can be equally sensitive. And sometimes too much prolonged stimulation to that area can become annoying unless she's aroused and stimulated to the point of orgasm. But one technique is to lightly run your tongue up and down that delicate little shaft. Give it an equally light suck or two then let the length and flat of your tongue fully caress the full opening of her split, once again top to bottom before searching out and again directly or indirectly assaulting her clitoris. The amount of pressure, friction, tempo can and should be alternated as you explore and arouse your partner. Once again, changing positions periodically can also change the differing sensations for both partners as well. +When her breathing, or her spoken words alert you that she's ""very"" aroused now, then more direct stimulation and force can be better tolerated (if not downright needed and wanted by this time). Here, and again be open to communication, but a firm though still yet gentle sucking directly of the woman's clitoral shaft can be extremely pleasurable. Sometimes holding it there with your lips, using the flat of your tongue to press it deeply within your mouth, still holding, though sucking lightly at first, and perhaps a little more forcefully as indications of your partner's pleasure is expressed. I enjoy doing that, with an in-between variation of the old ""butterfly"" clit flick of the tongue. Whether that be also hard and fast, or soft and slow. Mix it up a little. Again, use your own imagination, and have fun. Enjoy yourself, and she'll enjoy it all the more as well. +Use your hands and fingers. But be aware of what she likes, or doesn't like here too. Not every woman enjoys a finger up there while she's being stimulated orally. And even those who do, just enjoy the presence of it being there more than any hard-fast thrusting one might be tempted to do. (If she wants that...she'll let you know hopefully). But this is also an ideal time to go back to those breasts. They're not just there for foreplay. Very often the direct stimulation and caress of a woman's clitoris can be heightened and intensified by the added stimulation of her breasts and nipples simultaneously. Most often a woman's nipples can become even more sensitive, more pleasure driven when you are by now directly stimulating her clitoris, and visa versa. With practice, you can vary the tempo of stimulation to both areas. Soft caresses and nipple touches while the tongue is flicking madly on the surface of her clit. Or harder (if she enjoys that) nipple pinches and squeezes, while one's tongue light as a feather, dances across the floor of her clitoris. +Finger scissors. +Not all women enjoy this. And it's certainly something you'd best ask about before doing anything. Don't assume. Once again, one woman might want only oral stimulation of the lips, mouth and tongue without any penetration at all. Others still might also enjoy that added sensation, whether it be secondary and passive, or firm and authorative. On some other occasions, a well lubricated, gentle finger in her ass in addition to one inside her pussy can produce exquisitely erotic pleasurable enhancements to the oral techniques I've described above. But that is again a personal preference, and not mentioned here as an absolute requirement. But I have through my own experience found it to induce very intense orgasms in most women who've allowed and enjoyed this particular technique. +The orgasm +Here again, all women are different. Half the fun is finding out how different they can be, and enjoying that difference, and sharing it with them. Some women excrete additional fluids when experiencing an orgasm. Some others actually have what is called ""female"" ejaculations. Whatever the case, it's her orgasm, and if you care about it, or care about her, then go with the flow as I say. Something I again personally find very, very enjoyable. +Be very much aware of a woman's sensitivities, or abilities to be multi- orgasmic. Some women having experienced climax can become supersensitive (just like guys can). Continuing to flick or suck her clitoris when the pleasure has receded can be downright painful. When she grabs your head, maybe its time to let up. But surprisingly enough, sometimes that same gentle soft linger of a lightly touching tongue after an orgasm, can bring about another one within a relatively short period of time in some instances. Be patient in that, if she's enjoying that post-climatic pleasuring, let her decide if it's going to lead to yet another climax, or simply if it's a nice slow gentle way to come down. If you've pleasured her well enough during this session, chances are she'll be ready and wanting a bit more. And remember that turnabout is fair play. Please your partner, pleasure her beyond her wildest expectations, and I can assure you, she'll do the same thing for you. I certainly welcome your comments thoughts or ideas. Feel free to contact me to discuss any of this, ask questions, or even disagree if you wish with anything I've said. All I've hoped to do here is share with you what I have learned and enjoyed through personal experience. Does that make me an expert? Not necessarily, but I've not had anyone complain yet either, on the contrary. But it's also something I love doing. And I think that's also just as important as anything I could try and tell someone how to do." +451,How to Pew Vol. 01,Todd172,How To,2018-07-10,2018-07-10,2022-01-04 08:33:02,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pew-vol-01,Some more or less random thoughts on Military Fiction.,"['Action Adventure', 'How To', 'Military', 'Research', 'Violent', 'Writing']",4.76,"**I answer a lot of questions on military issues so I thought It'd be fun to put together a few primers on it covering different aspects.

Thanks to sbrooks103x, as always for editing these otherwise-unreadable tracts.** +***** + **How to Pew. Volume 1.** + **Some More or Less Random Thoughts on Writing Military Fiction** +Military fiction can be, if you'll pardon the pun, a bit of a minefield. Even if you've served in the military, your experience is very different from pretty much every other man or woman who has served. Country, time period, branch of service, type of unit, military specialty and sheer luck will make everyone's perceptions different, so there is no easy one-size-fits-all set of rules, but there are some helpful things to keep in mind. +Note: This one is about the basics, so there's no real primer on tactics, etc. It's also mostly on the Modern era -- WWI to Present or so. + **Everything is Different** +Every service is different, every time is different: Army to USMC to Navy to Coast Guard to Air Force, every service has its own standard behavior and its own set of rules, both written and unwritten. The rules vary by time and place. An Army unit full of draftees in the Vietnam War in 1969 is incredibly different from the same unit full of volunteers in Iraq in 2008. Unless you were there, you'll have to look things up to get it right. +Every job is different: There are a lot of different jobs. Not everybody is primarily a shooter -- there are finance guys, medical, administrative, etc. Most of them have basic combat skills, but we're not talking Delta Force if you have a graphic designer. That said, even a National Guard ""Weekend Warrior"" who works as a grocery store manager may well have three tours kicking in doors in Iraq, and is likely far more dangerous in a gunfight than the average gang-banger. Don't sell Reserves or Guard short, some of those units perform exceptionally well. + **Joining up** +Every service has some version of ""basic"" or ""boot"" training. The intent of it is to do some physical conditioning, but mostly to get you started integrating into military culture. Learn to be part of a team, recognize rank insignia, learn some traditions, and start to think in military terms. Basic skills, like map reading, taking care of your feet on marches and which end of the weapon the bullets come out of are taught here. This is usually 8 to 14 weeks, depending on service, time period, etc., and it usually isn't a lot of fun at all. This is followed by courses on whatever specific job you are going to perform is -- anything from infantry to cook to supply clerk to chaplain's aide. +The schooling will never quite stop, by the way. If you stay in, you get rank and skill specific schools of various kinds. + **The Army** +I did my twenty years in the Army, enlisted. Mostly in rather non-traditional units, but I worked with many of the active divisions. That said, my experience will not exactly match anyone else in the Army. +Frankly, I'm also a little concerned for the Army. Every place I ever went, some First Sergeant or Sergeant Major told me, ""Well, that's the way we do it here, but that's not how it's done in the real Army."" As far as I can tell, I never managed to actually find the real Army. I always assumed it was somewhere at Fort Hood, Fort Bragg or Fort Benning, but in every one of those places, I was told the exact same thing. +So where the hell is the real Army? We seem to have lost it, and that's really bad, because the Army is expensive and like everything else that's expensive, _somebody is signed for that shit._ We'll probably all get called back and have to go look for it. Hopefully it's just stashed in a warehouse somewhere and not being sold on eBay. + **The Air Force** +I worked with both flying units and non-flying units. I can't begin to describe the difference, it's almost like two completely different organizations. While the ground units are very professional, often in a sort of ""corporate"" manner, for lack of a better term, the flying units are extremely motivated, extremely focused and very combat oriented. + **The Navy** +I did a couple floats with the Navy and worked with a couple of their flying units. Like the Air Force, there are different ""Navies"" that seem to be completely different organizations -- Shore, Fleet, and Brown Shoe (Aviation). Each has its own personality and quirks. The Navy also has weird rituals. The ceremony for crossing the equator to convert Pollywogs to Shellbacks is across several Navies and merchant ships; to us non-sailors, it is just strange as hell. + **The USMC** +The Marine Corps is smaller than the other services, and get much of their support from the Department of the Navy, so they have a higher combat troop to support troop ratio. The standard of training is very high and they are generally outstanding. They are, however, far more parochial than the other services and do not always work and play well with them, and that is occasionally problematic. + **The Coast Guard** +These guys work for Homeland Security these days, with the ability to be placed under the Navy if necessary. They do all kinds of things, but be aware they are actually credentialed federal law enforcement. + **Special Operations** +Let's get to this -- a lot of writers like to center their stories on Special Operations because it is cool. All Special Operations arose from the need for extremely highly trained personnel to exploit tactical situations where larger units would not be useable. +Army Delta Force aka the Combat Applications Group (CAG), Navy SEALs, Army Special Forces, Army Rangers, Air Force Combat Control Teams, Air Force Pararescue (PJs) and MARSOC Marines (Marine Raiders) are all examples of special operations units. There are more, some of which don't even have official names, and some of which disappear like illusions when you try to look directly at them. Each of these units has a very specific mission set and very specific capabilities. None of them are easy to get into, and there's no relaxing once you are in, you have to keep an edge. Crazy and brave doesn't cut it in these units, you have to be a professional, and act like one. +Take the time to learn a little bit. It doesn't take long to read a Wikipedia entry on whatever type of unit you are using. Then you can avoid things like ""USMC Ranger."" +While we are at it, the term ""Operator"" really applies to CAG/Delta Force. The term differentiates the shooter from the support personnel in the organization (although in CAG, the support personnel are pretty damn good shooters too). Most other organizations have their own designators: SEALs are SEALs, Rangers are Rangers, and so on. The term ""Operator"" has become a little more widely applied than it originally was, but Delta certainly has the claim on the term. +Intelligence ""activities"" have ""Operatives,"" not Operators; mind you, they are damned dangerous by any reasonable measure. Annoyingly, they generally appear to be more like the boring IT guy than anything dangerous or cool until they shoot you. They also tend to be much less idealistic and much more brutally pragmatic. +None of these are large organizations, most are actually pretty small. There are probably less than 100,000 special operations troops of all types on active duty in the US military. +There are about 4,000 Navy SEALs on active duty and if you read fiction, it is pretty clear that their wives have no idea and often think they are pathetic weaklings. +Yeahhhhh. No. +Whether it is SEALs, Delta Force, SAS, or any of dozens of special organizations or activities, the spouses always have some idea. With all the training they have to do, it's pretty obvious. Wives talk and form all kinds of networks so they always know more than they should anyway. Most of these guys are also pretty obvious alpha males as well and that usually doesn't change when they get out. Despite an insane divorce rate due to long separations and heavy training schedules, most are also married. Stable people tend to get married, and these units, especially the more elite ones, want stable people. You don't give this kind of training to some gung-ho screw- ball, you need him to have his head on straight. +Incidentally, the vast majority of these special mission unit types - Operators, operatives, SEALS, Rangers, etc. - are enlisted guys, because that is where the necessary skill sets reside. Sergeants, Petty Officers, etc. Recruiting to these units takes various forms, from open try-outs to targeted recruitment for skill sets. Getting through the selection course for these organizations is incredibly tough. The higher echelon units such as CAG and SF often get their recruits from the Ranger Regiment. + **Combat** +For the most part, war is pretty boring. It is uncomfortable - too hot, too cold, too dirty, whatever -- but boring. The majority of the time is spent sitting, driving or walking around waiting for something to happen. +Actual combat itself is, however, incredibly intense. Every firefight is different; some are remarkably noisy with thousands and thousands of rounds fired, explosions, air support and hours and hours of fighting for an advantage. Some are nearly silent, with a few, usually lethal, shots fired and end in seconds, with barely a ruffle of activity. + **How to win a firefight** +Bring many friends. Numbers are important. It's a math problem; the more you can subtract from their side faster, the more likely you are to win. +Bring many long guns -- rifles - with lots of ammo. Rifles shoot farther and harder. Use them. +Aim your shots and shoot first if possible. Preferably before they are even aware you are there. +Hide from bullets: use solid, bullet-proof cover once the lead starts flying. Your car is not bullet proof, except maybe the engine block. Neither are most house walls, couches or refrigerator doors. +Bravery does not make you bulletproof. Nor does exercise, cool uniforms or operator beards. Bullets do not care. They can't, they are just chunks of metal moving at very high speeds and your goal is to not be in their path. Because at the intersection of physics and anatomy, you lose. And getting shot hurts a lot. +Win by any means necessary because these days, firefights aren't about honor or reputation. The winner gets to write down what happened anyway. Be the winner. + **Weapons** +Weapons vary by unit, time period and personnel. I'm not going into special purpose anti-tank missiles, flamethrowers or crew served/team weapons like the M240B or M60; if you need that kind of info, look it up. For the most part there are standard individual weapons in use in every military, at every time period, and they are relatively easy to figure out. Once you figure out what they are, if you aren't familiar with them, look them up on YouTube; somebody is geeking on them, no matter what they are. Probably that crazy Russian guy. +But there are some basics to know. **Bullets** don't actually slam people backward through windows, not even shotgun slugs. It's just physics, velocity times mass is momentum, a measure of the energy you are transferring to the target, but the mass of a bullet is very small, an ounce or less. By the time you put enough velocity behind that bullet to have the energy to pick up a human body, it's moving so fast that the energy doesn't really transfer to the target, it goes right through without slowing down. People that are shot tend sort of sag to the ground most of the time. You cannot curve bullet flight paths enough to matter by twisting, swinging or otherwise moving the gun while firing. Bullet flight paths do curve as a function of their ballistic properties, but if you are taking the time to explain ballistics in a story, you should really think about how much you want to do that; it is very math-y and can be boring to explain. **Do not confuse Automatic with Semi- automatic.** In Automatic fire, you pull the trigger and bullets keep coming out until you release it, run out of ammo or the gun jams; this is a machine gun. Semi-automatic means one trigger pull equals one round. + **Sniper rifles** are long, heavy and typically slow firing. They have carefully set optical sights -- scopes -- and are usually fired from prone with a bipod or rest of some kind. A shot at a particular man-sized target from over about 500 meters is a difficult shot for most shooters, but that's just getting started for a sniper; kills have been made to over one and a half miles. These typically fire heavier rounds than the usual military rifle. Heavy deer hunting rifles are essentially sniper rifles. Most of these will pierce civilian-available body armor pretty easily, and even military level IV armor at closer ranges. Within the modern historical period, most are bolt action or semi-automatic. They have limited ammo capacity and a slow rate of fire. The .50 caliber round is popular in some units, but that results in a very heavy rifle, nearly twice the weight of other sniper rifles. The M82, M24, and the M25 are American military examples of sniper rifles. Some ""sniper rifles"" are actually **Designated Marksmen Rifles;** these are for ranges between 500 and 800 meters, maybe a bit further, beyond the reach of the average assault rifle, but not the insane ranges of the heavier sniper rifles. Russian SVDs and the Romanian PSL are examples. + **Main battle rifles** are rare these days, but were common until the mid 20th Century when assault rifles took over as the standard issue weapon. Main battle rifles overlap with sniper rifles in many armies and many conflicts, the main difference being optics in some time periods. The American M1 Garand and Russian Moisin-Nagant are examples of these from World War Two; the Belgian FN-FAL is a more recent example. + **Carbines** are smaller lighter rifles typically used by second line troops or airborne troops. They are lighter, more portable and still provide significant firepower. The M1 Carbine is an example from World War Two. Generally, these have been phased out in favor of the assault rifle. + **Assault Rifles** took over as everyone recognized that most firefights took place at less than 100 meters and took another look at the carbines that had been issued to airborne troops as a possible basic weapon. Assault rifles are lighter, carbine sized weapons, generally smaller caliber than main battle rifles, with high magazine capacity and rapid rate of fire, with select fire including single round and burst or full automatic capability. Full automatic fire is rarely used by individual soldiers in the US or UK military -- it's considered indiscriminate and unprofessional, and it is easy to run out of ammo. It is very important to note that in all the history of warfare, nobody has ever won a fight because they ran out of ammo first; they may have won one despite it, but not because of it. The M16/M4 series of AR-15 type weapons and the AK-47 family of weapons are the most common examples of these weapons. This is not the same thing as the ill-defined ""assault weapon"" you see in the news, although the confusion is probably deliberate. The main legal difference is that assault rifles have either burst fire or fully automatic, which is not generally legal without a prohibitively expensive license. + **Submachine guns** preceded the assault rifle, and typically had a low basis of issue, although in World War Two, the Soviet Union equipped entire regiments with them. Basically a scaled up, fully automatic pistol, they tend to be most useful in urban combat. There is overlap with assault rifles, but a decent rule of thumb is that if the cartridge is a pistol cartridge, it's a submachine gun. They are still used, though it is generally for very specific missions. They can be as small as an Ingram MAC-10 or Mini-Uzi or as large as a Thompson submachine gun. The German MP-40, Russian PPSh-41 and the H&K MP-5 are examples. + **Handguns** are pretty much last resorts on a modern battle field -- most are nowhere near as lethal as a carbine, assault rifle, or main battle rifle. There are instances of men being shot in the head with .45 caliber bullets multiple times to little effect. They just aren't in the same league with long guns. Even submachine guns using the same round are more dangerous because they have longer barrels which equates to more power. If you are using a handgun things have probably gone really, really wrong. There are exceptions to this, places where a handgun is optimal -- like a crawlspace, but they are generally rare. For God's sake, do not hold them sideways; the sights are on top and the ejection mechanism is designed to work best when the gun is upright. In the US military, the M1911 .45 was the standard for several years, followed by the Beretta 9mm. A version of the Sig Sauer P320 is being phased in now. +These will vary in special operations units, where there is a lot more leeway, although, they will likely use a standard military issue round. Glocks, while not official, are very popular in some units. They're basic, very reliable and inexpensive; practically disposable. With a trigger tip safety, you pull the trigger, the bullet comes out. No thumb or grip safeties. There is no real craft to them, but they are very functional and very reliable. + **Automatics.** Nearly all modern military handguns are self-loading semiautomatic pistols aka ""automatics."" These cycle up bullets from a magazine -- usually, but not always located in the grip -- using the energy of the recoil from the previous round. Automatics have several advantages over revolvers from a military point of view. More bullets and easier to reload quickly being chief among them. + **Revolvers** are less likely to jam, and can be fired from inside a coat pocket or handbag without a spent shell casing causing all kinds of problems. They also do not leave shell cases with pesky fingerprints laying around. They are relatively rare in military use these days, but have solid applications in other arenas. + **Magazines and clips.** To avoid the baying of purists, use ""magazine"" when referring to the (usually) metal box of bullets that gets jammed into the rifles and pistols to feed them. Clips is often taken to refer to ""charger clips"" and ""stripper clips"" that hold cartridges in line together to be fed into a rifle with a fixed (non-removable) magazine. There's actually a lot of confusion -- the original documents for the development of the 1911 .45 described what purists would clearly consider a detachable box magazine as a clip. But it's best to avoid the whole issue; just use magazine most of the time. Unless you are writing a historical piece, it should do. + **Grenades.** There are several types of grenades tear gas, concussion, incendiary, flash bang, but the most common in military work is the fragmentation grenade. These do not make big fiery explosions like the movies, they make short sharp blasts with little flame. They also usually throw fragments out with remarkably lethal results for several meters in radius. Most of them can throw fragments farther than a man can throw a grenade. + **Suppressors or Silencers** do not remove all the sound from a shot. They significantly reduce the loudness and change the sound in ways that make it sound less like a gunshot, but it isn't like the movies. + **Knives/Bladed Weapons.** If handguns are a last resort, knives are a ""what the holy fuck have I done wrong now"" weapon on the modern battlefield. Still, it can happen in extreme cases; if it does, stick the pointy end of the knife into the other guy. Repeatedly. Kidney, liver, up under the rib cage into the lungs and, if you are lucky, the heart. Do not try to stab through the ribcage, it is there as a sort of protective armor, so it can and does interfere with your goal. Do this quickly because there is absolutely no room for error now that you've gotten yourself into this. Prison yard rush, pin him with your weight and stick him. Leave the fancy dancing around shit for the movies, you need this over with right fucking now, because things have gone to hell or you wouldn't be doing this at all. +Slashing is much less effective than stabbing. It is very bloody and quite dramatic, but it takes too long for the blood loss to work, and biomechanical slashes to the tendons are not always reliable. Stab them. The British used to teach their soldier to only use a couple of inches of their bayonet -- ""just the tip"" into the abdomen, because that was usually enough. +Chopping with a sword, machete, kukri, or axe is fine, just try to do enough damage to drop them immediately. +Do not ""knife fight"" on a modern battlefield. If he has a knife, you grab a brick or a rock and use its ballistic advantage. Or use a club or a tire iron or... whatever. The certainty of engaging with a knife is that somebody is going to get cut and you don't want to be that somebody. +Throat cutting. This is done to remove sentries and it is very, very rare now. Killing an armed sentry this way requires stealth, nerves of steel, and not a little luck. Do not grab him, reach across his neck and draw the knife from ear to ear. If you try to do it that way, odds are the blade will ride over the windpipe, and he will both fight and make plenty of noise. Noise is a bad idea right now or you would just shoot him. Instead, come up behind Sentry, cup his chin with left hand and pull up, while kicking the back of his right knee (reverse if you are left handed). Ram the knife through his neck, side to side, just behind the windpipe, blade edge out, then shove the knife forward, opening him up like a Pez dispenser. Be careful not to stab your own arm in the process of doing this. With the blood supply to the brain cut off, he will be unconscious in about 9 seconds, dead in a minute or so. This is very messy work and you will want to wash up before you eat dinner. +The Chinese Spoon is a more difficult process, but with more certain results. Use a spike or stiletto type knife and drive it under the center back base of the skull up into the brain. The result here is nearly instantaneous death, but there's a chance you'll hit too low and get the tip stuck in the spine or too high and blade tip will ride over the skull in a bloody but ineffective wound. It is even more rarely used, and nearly always only used by elite troops. + **Hand to Hand Combat** +Martial arts are very popular with service members, but there are application problems on the actual battlefield. The average fighting load of a Soldier in Afghanistan turned out to be about 62.43 pounds, with an approach march load of 94.98 pounds. +Reread that last bit, it's important. Basically, the approach march load is equivalent to carrying one Viet Cong. +The body armor vest alone weighs 30-35 pounds depending on the size. The helmet weighs in at around 2 to 3 pounds or so. Not wearing the armor and helmet is a really stupid idea, they actually stop bullets and, as mentioned above, getting hit by bullets hurts a lot. +All of this added weight makes a jumping spinning heel kick a bit difficult to execute. While there are hand to hand combat systems designed around the tactical military gear, they tend towards single-opponent styles. Subduing grips are useful in handling prisoners, but for the most part, martial arts are problematic. Most veterans lean towards a ""prison yard rush-and-crush"" where all the added weight of their gear is actually useful. Your helmet can be used to beat an opponent unconscious, if necessary. + **Historic Weapons** +Research is essential in any historic period, weapons can be particularly difficult to get right. One simple example -- ever notice the old civil war and early Wild West movies where the shooter points the revolver at the sky while cocking it? Most people assume that is because it is easier to cock the single action revolvers that way, and to a degree, that is true; but there is another even more critical reason. In cap and ball revolvers, if the revolver is cocked level, the spent percussion cap can fall into the hammer mechanism, jamming it, leaving you essentially unarmed in the middle of a gun fight. Good to know. +A lot of things like that are lost, and you really need to consult an expert if you aren't familiar with historic weapons, but there are a lot of experts around in various societies and they are usually really eager to share their expertise. + **Final thoughts** +This was really written to clear some space in my head, but I hope this is some help to somebody Or at least entertains a bit. I am planning on a few more volumes covering different things as time allows." +452,How To Pick The Perfect Pooch,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-08,2008-05-08,2022-01-04 08:33:03,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pick-the-perfect-pooch,"So you want to buy a dog, but don't know which dog to buy?","['Breeder', 'Dog Park', 'Dog Training', 'Dogs', 'Pet Store', 'Pet Training', 'Pets']",2.86,"How To Pick the Perfect Pooch. +So you want to buy a dog, but you don't know which kind of dog to buy? Well, you've opened up the right story. It's good that you didn't open up a story of romance and intrigue. Yeah, it may have entertained you, but you'd still wonder which dog to buy after you read the story, whereas after reading this story, you'll at least have more of an idea which dog is right for you. +First let me write in print that, as any dog can be a bad dog, any dog can be a good dog. It's the owners that make a good dog bad. If you just follow the simple rules of the Dog Whisperer, Cesar Millan, of exercise first, discipline second, and love last, then you'll have a well behaved pet. The problems happen when too much love comes first, which in the dog's brain reinforces their bad behavior, and not enough exercise and discipline are given. Yet, dog psychology and dog training is not what this story is about; that's another story. This story is to help you decide which type of dog to buy. +Let's get back to buying the perfect dog. What you don't want to do is to buy a puppy without knowing what he'll grow to be when he matures to adult. Moreover, buying a dog shouldn't be an emotional or an impulsive decision. Never buy a dog because he looks cute. +You are making a long-term commitment of yourself to care for an animal. The best ways to make your many years of dog ownership happy ones is to fully research your decision. You must know and understand what you are getting into before bringing little bow-wow home. Moreover, you must really want a dog to care for it over the many years you'll be together. +I've had a dog all my life. I love dogs. I can't imagine not reaching my hand down to pat my pal laying by my side or resting in my lap. I'm not a big dog type of guy. I like dogs that are in the twenty to twenty-five pound range. +Every time anyone sees me with my dog, they all make comment, especially the women. My dog is a real chick magnet. +""Oh, he's so cute."" +""Are you talking about me or the dog,"" I reply. +""Both,"" she says with a smile. +This story is for those of you intent on buying a dog but who don't know which breed to buy. There are so many different types of dogs and then there are the mixed breeds, the mongrels waiting for someone to adopt them at the shelters. In many respects, mongrels make perfect pets, especially when you have small children. I've adopted several mongrels and they have been great pets. Mongrels, because they are a mixed breed, tend to be more docile and are not as hyper as some of the other purebred dogs, such as terriers. Only, sometimes, unless you buy an adult mongrel dog, with a mongrel puppy, you don't know what you'll be getting when your dog grows to an adult. +Listed below are my hopefully helpful tips in finding the dog that is right for you. +1\. Buy a book of dogs, an encyclopedia of sorts, one that has lots of photos of dogs. Take your time to peruse the pictures. Then, read about the specific breeds. +The books, generally coffee table size retail for a lot but are usually found in the discount pile and are cheap enough to buy. Now, before you even get confused reading about all the different breeds, think of the size dog that will work for you. How big or how small of a dog do you prefer? +The easiest way to pick a dog is by using much the same process you used when picking a type of car or buying a house. Select the size dog, as you did when selecting the size of your car and house. +Do you want a huge dog the size of a Ford Expedition or a Chrysler Town and Country mini-van, such as a Great Dane, Wolfhound, Deerhound or Saint Bernard that will happily run around and/or lounge around your huge estate? +Do you want a large size dog more befitting a Lincoln Town Car or Chevy Impala, such as a Labrador Retriever, German Shepard, Collie, or Doberman Pinscher to run around your 4 bedroom, 5 bath, and 3 garage home? +How about a medium size dog to fit in your Toyota Camry or Honda Accord and your apartment in the city, such as a Pit Bull Terrier, Basenji, Whippet, or Border Collie? +How about a small dog befitting your Ford Mustang or BMW three series and one bedroom apartment, such as a Jack Russell terrier, Cocker Spaniel, West Highland terrier or a Corgi? +Then, there are those toy dogs that will not only fit in your Mini Cooper S or Mazda Miata but also have plenty of space in your small 500 square foot studio in Manhattan, such as a Dachshund, Chihuahua, Yorkshire terrier or a Chinese Crested? +There are so many dogs from which to chose, but the first thing for you to do is to determine the size of dog that is right for you. Too many people buy the wrong size dog only to regret their decision later. You don't want to distress a big dog by confining it in a small space, just as you wouldn't want a toy dog out in the wilderness where the coyotes view your faithful companion as lunch. +2\. Now that you have chosen the size, next choose the breed. It is important to pick the breed of dog that most fits you and your lifestyle. If you like the water, don't buy a Bulldog. They sink. Instead buy a retriever, Labrador, poodle or Portuguese water dog. +If you love to jog, don't buy a Pug. They get overheated easily, especially in the warmer weather. Buy a whippet for warmer climates or a Husky for colder climates. Those dogs will out run you. +If you need a dog for protection, buy the specific breed of dog that will dog the job. Even though that Bichon Frise is really cute, it's not going to dissuade someone from attacking you. Buy a German Shepard or a Doberman Pinscher or any larger size dog that will give anyone second thoughts about breaking in your house. +There are companion dogs, such as a Boston terrier, Italian Greyhound, Lhasa Apso, and Maltese. There are the fighting breeds, which include any terrier breed, Bulldog, and Mastiff breed. There are guard dogs, such as a Rottweiler, Weimaraner, and Rhodesian Ridgebacks. There are herding and cattle dogs, such as Border Collies, Australian Shepherd, and Keeshond. There are hunting dogs, such as retrievers, setters, pointers, spaniels, and water dogs. There are sight hounds such as the Afghan hound, Borzoi, and Greyhound. There are scent hounds, such as Basset hounds, Coonhounds, and Dachshund. Whatever your requirement, there is a dog to perfectly fit your need. +There are millions of documents online about dogs. Read. Seek and you shall find. Whatever you need is just a Google or Yahoo search click away. +3\. Once you have narrowed down your size of a dog and breeds down to a few, interact with dogs. Take a walk in the dog park. Go to a pet store. Talk to your friends and relatives who have the types of dogs that interest you. Talk to a dog groomer or a pet sitter. Linger around the animal shelters. Talk to a veterinarian. Rather than you not be happy with your pet, veterinarians, breeders, and animal shelter personnel would much rather answer your questions about certain breeds before having you make a commitment and make a mistake. +After you have picked the size and breed of dog, E-mail a breeder. Breeders are the perfect people to pick their brains. Not only do they love waxing profoundly about their breed but also they know everything about their breed. +For those of you who already have a dog, have a heart and help out those who are looking to buy their first dog. What kind of dog do you have and what do you like about that breed of dog? Please post your comments at the end of this story. Just as it was fun writing this dog story, it is fun to read about the different kinds of dogs that people buy and why they buy them. +What kind of dog do I have? Everyone knows that I have Polo, my pain-in-the- ass Rat Terrier." +453,How to Pick Up a Stripper,davevjr,How To,2003-04-06,2003-04-06,2022-01-04 08:33:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pick-up-a-stripper,How to get sex from a stripper.,"['Lap Dance', 'Make Money', 'Rule Number', 'Test Waters']",3.12,"First Let's go over of few things like why you go to a strip club. Admit It You want to get LAID! Wait what about the rules. As far as I am concerned forget the rules. Ever Adult club I have ever been to have said absolutely no touching the girls. Yet I have every time I go I fondle them, suck their tits and even get blowjobs every once in awhile. And if you are really lucky you can take one home. I have took a girl back to my home three times in recent memory, but there is different set of rules if you want to take one of them home. +Rule Number 1 is never tip them onstage. They need to come to you. If she doesn't don't sweat it because there will other hot babes stripping for you in a minute. Rule number 2 when she does come to you engage her in some light conversation, but remember she is trying to make money of you. Go ahead and get a lap dance or two. In some clubs the girls will have a drink with you. Doesn't hurt to ask even if it is a no alcohol, it give you more of chance to talk to her. The goal her is to make her feel comfortable around you. Get her talk about herself. One Very serious no no is don't ask about her body, a compliment is okay but don't ask if they are real. If you ask if she is likes women she most likely say yes because it excites men and that's how she gets money. Things you ask her where is she from things like that. +Rule number 3 is about when you are getting the lap dance. The rules of the club are not written in stone. They will let you break them to some extent depending on there own personal taste. They are more likely to let you break the rules if they like you, and if they are having a slow day. Most guys just sit there and let the girls rub their body all over you and never move a muscle. But I say do this the other way around. Show your excitement to the girl she will like it. She likes for one or two reasons. One of course is she has the potential to make more money. Two she just might be getting turned on by your excitement. Try to touch her she might let you get away with it. If they let you get away with keep doing it. If the say something tells them you were not aware of the rules. Keep in mind all the girls have a different point were they will say no more you have to test the waters. When all is said and done don't let her just walk away. You need to keep her attention. Also do not ask to go back to your place straight out. You need to test the waters. +The are many ways to test the waters. One thing is for sure though if she is not trying to get away by this point she is open for whatever. That means you got her were you want her. This is the best time to engage her in conversation. Pick a feature and compliment it and be original don't compliment her ass or breast or her body. She knows she has a nice body. Remember guys pay to look at her body. If you are going to ask a girl to leave the club with you the best way to do it is to hold her hand and ask. Never say for sex when you ask. Think of something creative to tell her. She needs a good reason to leave with you. Hopefully you had a couple of drinks together and this will be a lot easier to do. Also don't say my place when you are asking her to leave with you unless she is obviously wants you. Strippers do on occasion slip phone numbers but don't count on it. What you say when you ask her to leave must be original not a line. +This is a few notes about the girls who work as strippers. Some of them are just there for the money in which case you won't get lucky. Some of them really enjoy their work and the attention they get from that come there. This is the kind of girl you want to try this on. She is the one that will come to you when you are just sitting in the back. The other one will go the people who are spending their money on tipping the stage dances first. These are the girls that will do something extra during your lap dance as long as you don't ask her. This is the one you want. She won't be looking for it but when it finds her she be ready and willing if you know how to kick your game. All the things I mentioned about sucking tits and getting blown was done during a lap dance at some all nude clubs. One last comment it really doesn't matter what shape you're in or how old you just how you talk to them and such!" +454,How To Pick Up A Woman For Sex,Seal 6,How To,2000-09-01,2000-09-01,2022-01-04 08:33:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pick-up-a-woman-for-sex,Navy SEAL tells all.,"['Business Cards', 'Meeting Place', 'Men Woman', 'Pecking Order', 'Sex Man', 'Target', 'Ten Percent', 'Waste Time', 'Woman Bed', 'Woman Sex']",4.07,"W.G.M.A.T.A.T.S.: Unofficial SEAL Team Six motto: We Get More Ass Then A Toilet Seat. When you think of the SEALs, you picture a military unit, guns blazing, advancing against an enemy. We do that. But, we also travel throughout the world, with documents identifying us as business men, travelers, tourists, or reporters, not necessarily American. We wear unconventional clothes and are unconventional groomed. Several of us may converge in an area using different airlines or modes of travel so that we may operate undercover. We have no trouble passing through the airport metal detectors carrying guns, knives, or bombs. We are, after all, supplied by the Christians-In-Action. CIA. +Spending this amount of time away has provided us with the time and opportunity to refine the process of moving a woman from meeting to bed with the least wasted effort. The system is simple, easy, and should result in your having sex one out of every three nights that you try. +The rules of engagement are: Target is a woman, clean, between eighteen and sixty, weighting less then one hundred eighty pounds. Your pride is no factor. One night stand, while providing false identification, yet securing all her information for possible use by you or others another day. If you are successful in getting the woman in bed, you must bring her to orgasm and delay as long as possible your enjoyment. Once sexed properly, the target may be available for years. +You. It is extremely important that you are freshly scrubbed, nails clean, fresh shave, cologne, and you have a breath mints with you. Your clothes should reflect what a traveling business man would wear if he left his motel for a drink. +Motel. If in fact you are traveling, your choice of motel should be as near as possible to my suggested meeting place. I will add instructions for the ""local guys"" later. +Meeting Place. In every city there are several bars, taverns, and lounges. Surprisingly, each has a well defined clientele. The local bar has the local regulars that leave their home, just to get out and go sit sipping on their beer. The twenty one to twenty five year old kids have a loud crowded place where you can't find a place to sit. What you are looking for is the lounge, with a dance floor, soft music, that caters to the professional men and woman from age twenty seven and up. Where will the thirty five year old female real estate woman go for a drink with her present lover? If you find this as part of a motel, or next door, smile big guy. +Why is the woman at this place? What ever the reason, she did not go out tonight with the thought that she would pick up a man and have sex with him. Possible reasons: Business, place to gossip with girl friends, pick up a professional man for relationship, flirt and play woman games with men. Some woman just want to dance or be seen. Bad relationship with husband or boyfriend, so wants love. The important thing is that she is there. +Normal operation: You arrive and go sit where you can observe all the seating areas. There will be thirty five single guys, each who has left his motel room in hopes for having sex, but has no plan except to ask the prettiest woman.. There are twenty woman, in groups of two to four. The men will be looking over the woman to determine which one they really, really would like to bed. The woman will look over the field of men to determine who is the most attractive. Remember this point. There is also an understood pecking order by both men and woman as to who might be available to them. If Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt are in a place and I see Elizabeth Shue, I am not going to waste any time working on her, since those guys would have first dibs. You are going to have sex tonight because you will short circuit that system by coming on to a woman that does not expect you to be attracted to her.. +What you do is look over the largest group of woman. You go over and ask the least attractive woman to dance. Yes, the least attractive. While dancing, you have eyes only for her. Get her to talk about herself, and keep the conversation about her. Be attentive and try to get invited to sit at her table. This may take a few dances. If she tells you anything that would make her unavailable that evening, excuse yourself and try the next group. If you get to sit with them, keep your eyes on her. If she is number four in their pecking order, one, two, and three will be pushed out of shape that you choose her. The better looking you are, the more this effect occurs. Find out as soon as possible who is the driver. Hard to pick up that woman. If your Target is the driver if she has any interest in being with you after she drops off the others. +The other three will look at the men there and decide if you are more attractive then the field, especially after talking to you some. Their body language will tell you what they think. If they are turned sideways, looking away from the table, then they are letting ""four"" have you. If they turn square facing to you, they have signaled that they will try to take you from four. In either case, the woman you are talking to, is flattered by your attention and really really likes it that she has upended the pecking order and has attracted this man - you. Do not abandon your girl unless she is the driver, or you are certain that the new choice is a sure thing to go with you to bed. Be aware that the process for a woman in the selection of a man that she will allow to bed her goes like this: He is reasonably attractive. He is well spoken. He is happy and makes her comfortable. He smells good. His circumstances are such that he won't interfere with her current life. She can meet him in a way where her friend don't think badly of her. There is a safe, secluded place for intimacy. As you spend time with her and she warms up, you must tell her that you would like to spend some time with her to plant the idea, and provide time for her to consider her options. It also gives her time to get horny. +Horny. Yes, woman like sex. If the Target is thirty five, she has gone to bed with twenty five men. Once she leaves the lounge with you, it is a done deal. Her motive by then can be any number of thing from pure sex, show her friends that she can, get to know you better, etc.There is an interesting woman sexual factor that the doctors are beginning to pay more attention to, that once was called the ""seven year itch."" Doctors now believe that when a woman's children are about seven, that something inside her tells her to have sex with a man other then her husband to spread her gene pool. An amazing fact has surfaced since the compiling of DNA family relationships information has become common. Ten percent of the children of married couples in the United States have DNA that could not come from the husband. Ten percent! +If your progress with this group goes sour for any reason, immediately go sit at the bar for one dance, and then approach another group. Don't waste time. It makes no difference how many ""no thanks"" you get. What counts is one ""yes."" No one knows you or cares. +Who you are? In your travels, go out of your way to collect the business cards of important men. Manager of this, or President of that. Use a card index to age them, so no one will connect them to you. Have a card with you and become that person. Go over your cover story, in detail, before you meet with a Target. Depending on your age, and the Targets home facts, it may be better to be married. In most cases, she would not go to bed with a guy that she will see every day unless she is husband hunting. A married woman likes the idea that you will gone by morning and have reasons not to talk about an affair with her, if you get my gist. The more important the new you is, the more reasons for the Target to respect you and want to be with you. There are a lot of woman out there that will gladly give sex if they think the man is a potential provider of the good thing that money can buy, even if only once every two months. The last thing you want is a Target phoning your residence. Your wife or girl friend will not think it is funny. Tell the Target that you come to the area every other month. That does not crowd her, yet offers the chance of an ongoing relationship that she can control. +Local Guys: You must drive to a town or city at least thirty miles from your home area to be able to play the role of a man from out of town. Arrive in the area early to locate the nearest motel to the pick up point. Be prepared to pay cash. Rarely can a Target take you to her residence, safely. The test is; what are the chances of you bumping into someone that says, ""Aren't you Sally Jones husband? +A woman that lets you bed her once, will probably allow it many more times if you provide the following: You are VERY considerate of her wants and desires in bed. Foreplay, foreplay, foreplay. Tell her how much you enjoy being with her. Never thank her. Pick out some feature that turns you on, and talk about that. When you are finished, consider her every need until she is gone or you have delivered her to her place.. Find out about her home life, and determine the best way to contact her again. Could be a e-mail to her at work from a weight loss group, signed by ""Sue"". Could be a message to her on her home computer from someone with a number in the message section. It must appear innocent, and under no circumstances, should you do anything that will tarnish her reputation or disturb her marriage. You should have a e-mail address at Yahoo or Hotmail that can be used by Target to contact you. Use a lot of thought setting this up, since the Targets may be trying to contact you by any number of names. ""Smith Investments"", Ted Smith. Take notes, in code, so that you remember that her husband is on the road on Wednesday or works the second shift every other month. You can't have too much detail. You may have two or three Targets engaged at one time and it is a no no to call Betty by the name Joann. +An added story. One of our people looked exactly like Kenny Rodgers. He had his hair and beard groomed like Kenny, even colored gray, and bought tapes of Kenny so that he could sound like him. He had business cards made up with Kenny's name and address in Branson. He was challenged one day as to how many woman he could bed in one night. We were in Phoenix. He had sex with four different woman that night. It is a tough job, being a SEAL, but somebody has to do it. +You can contact me at: AWay4U2Play@AOL.com. We would like to hear from you about how this worked for you.

Want a good cook; try gourmet foods. Want a clotheshorse; try down the street at the Mall. Women in WalMart are cheap or is that thrifty. Actually, WalMart is cheap and women, not so much. +Women's clothing. Does this outfit go with my skin tone? No, but it fits your fat ass so who's complaining. If you're worried about your skin tone, check cosmetics. You might want to check out the exercise equipment in sporting goods for that wide butt while you're at it. +Lingerie. Now we're talking. Here you can check out who wears granny panties and who wears a thong. If they head for the girdles, about face and go elsewhere. But do keep an eye on the hosiery isle. Thigh highs are great; pantyhose are a bummer. +House wares. Exactly what does a house wear besides shingles and siding? All the shit in this department goes inside the house. Mostly in the kitchen. Remember this room. It's where you're supposed to cook. Prepare food. Salad and finger sandwiches is not food. Steak; that is food. +That's why WalMart has a meat department. You get the steaks there. That and its one place that puts nice bump in the front of ladies blouses and sweaters. This and the frozen food isle are the places to find out who's wearing a bra and who's not. +Any woman wandering around sporting goods or automotive is either lost or looking for a date. +Stay out of the shoe department. These women are too serious and in love with their own feet. This doesn't apply if you have a foot fetish. Just be aware that staring to long at the object of your desires could result in said desires making a trip to house wares for a set of knives. +The pet food isle. Dog food is good as long as it's the small bag. Anything over twenty pounds indicates a guard dog at home. Cat food is better but again, anything over twenty pounds at one time is an indication of major problems down the road. Now we're talking cat lady. +The paint department. White means dull and boring. Pastels indicate frilly and lacy so follow her to lingerie. Bold bright colors are for the wild child, a definite plus. Check out the rest of her cart, you might have a winner here. +The bathroom isle. Suzy Homemaker here. She's looking for a mate not a date. The same applies to the cloth and sewing area. That is, unless they are buying leopard print material. Definitely worth a second look. +Crafts department. Bored and have too much time on their hands. Well worth a little time invested. You might be able to show them better ways to spend their time than stringing beads and arranging flowers. +Home furnishings department. The women there are too cheap and tacky to even worry about. Unless they are very young, like furnishing a first apartment or dorm room. Then you could be in like flint. They always need help loading the heavy boxes. +Children's wear. Run, run like the wind. You have wandered into a danger zone. Husband material only need apply here. +Health and beauty aides. Watch carefully. You can learn a lot about your object of affection or in some cases infection. A thirty pack of condoms is a good thing. Vagisil is not. A ten pack of tampons is good; a forty pack of super pads is not. PMS is hazardous to your health, mentally and physically. +Electronics. Fourteen Disney movies. Run! Four chick flicks, could be of interest unless there's chocolate and maxi pads in the cart also. Two action adventure movies; move on, she already has a boyfriend/husband. +Garden department. Flowers are good. A shovel, an axe, and two bags of lime. Check cart for maxi pads and chocolate. The last boyfriends is about to make an appearance on a milk carton. +Men's department. Got a boyfriend/husband unless she's buying super huge men's shirts; then make a hard run on her, as she likes to wear them and only them. Naked girls in men's shirts are outstanding. Be advised that normal sized men's shirts may be an indication of a lesbian. They make excellent friends but you aren't getting any, so you're wasting your time. +All in all, WalMart is a cornucopia of information for the man on the prowl. You can learn more about people just by looking in their cart than you could with fourteen private detective agencies. +Of course this plan also works for women on the prowl so be advised." +456,How To Pick Up Women Like Musicians,NickFoxx,How To,2013-03-08,2013-03-08,2022-01-04 08:33:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pick-up-women-like-musicians,A how to guide (with examples) from a veteran musician.,"['Dating Advice', 'Humor', 'Pick Up Lines', 'Picking Up Women', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How To']",4.43,"I'm writing this for three reasons. +1\. I grew up singing and playing guitar, bass, piano, sax and flute. And before you ask-Yes, I picked up girls while playing flute-so I know what I'm talking about. +2\. I've slept with a number of women and I met virtually every single one of them (including my wife and my ex-wives) when I was in a band. In all honesty I don't have a good frame of reference for picking up women any other way. That may give you pause and make you wonder-""Does this guy know what he's talking about?"" Don't worry. It's not just about me. +3\. I think the title sounds cool. +Whether you're a musician or not, I think the techniques I'm going to tell you about can work if you apply yourself. +If you're a musician you have huge advantages over most guys when it comes to picking up women. Musicians are cool. I'm not cool, but a lot of musicians are cool and you have women's attention. In fact, if you're good, you have lots of women paying attention to you. There's a good chance she already likes something about you. If she didn't, she'd be watching some other guy in some other club, but she's not. She's watching you. +That gives you a leg up toward getting a woman's legs up. So at this stage you have a little less work to do. You just have to make your move and avoid doing anything stupid. (I didn't say there was no work involved, just that some of the heavy lifting was already done.) +You also have the image advantage whether you're a wild party animal or sensitive artist. You never know what will work in your favor. So, if you're a musician, you're probably not having trouble picking up girls. It sounds easy doesn't it? Well it is. As a matter of fact, if you play in a band and you can't pick up girls, put this down right now. You're too big a wuss for me to waste my time on. Go on. Put this down and walk away. Go on. Get out of here. Good. Now that they're gone, here's my advice for the rest of you guys. +Picking up a girl is a challenge. We don't want to get rejected and we don't know what to say. We're awkward and tongue-tied and we have to face the distinct probability that we will not have any female companionship. +Before I get too far along, let me tell you something that's important for you to remember. You're going to get rejected. It's going to happen. Just take it and move on. So when (not if -- when) you get rejected, accept the rebuff politely and go find another girl. There are plenty out more there. +There might even be a girl who wants to console you after your public humiliation. Remember-pity sex is just as physically satisfying and takes much less effort on your part. Since you've been shot down and made to feel inadequate, you can expect your partner to spend a considerable amount of time stroking your ego (among other things) to make you feel better. Don't let one rejection define who you are or what you do. Getting a girl is a matter of playing the odds. +For example, I wear my hair long. I know from a survey done in the nineties (which I have no qualms about quoting despite the dubious accuracy of my memory) only 50% of women like men with long hair. That means half the women I hit on are likely to reject me because of that. I also read that about two thirds of women don't like men with beards. That whittles me down to a pitiful 16-17%. Along with that there are women who don't like curly, blonde hair or quiet, sensitive guys. Those probably each cut the possibilities in half again. That means at best only about 4% of women will find me attractive and 96% won't. It's depressing to look at that way. But that means that in a bar with 100 women, four want to find a guy like me to do unspeakably kinky and disgusting things with. Woo-hoo! +To be successful, you have to be able to talk to women. If you're shy, don't try to conquer it. Trust me, you'll never conquer it, just resign yourself to being shy and find a way to deal with it. Find a way to be shy and still talk to a girl. For example: I have a buddy who is painfully shy around new people. He told me that he feels more comfortable sitting at home sketching and painting than going out. So I asked why he didn't do both? Why not go out and find a cool place to hang out and sketch the people or things he sees. I think what he does is impressive whether he draws a girl on a cocktail napkin or on an easel. And I've seen him score more than once sketching a pretty girl he wanted to meet. +Another buddy of mine is a songwriter (actually a lot of my buddies are songwriters). He often sits and works on new song ideas in cafes and parks. Though most people find it odd to hear a guy humming to himself, every now and there's a girl who's curious enough to ask him what he's doing. That won't get him all the way around the bases, but at least he gets to take a swing. +There's a guy I know whose favorite things are photography and beer. I suggested he photograph the things he likes - wildlife, concerts, sports or whatever. Any girl he met doing that would like the same things he does. He told me he liked renaissance fairs. When I heard that, I thought he'd be living in his mother's garage for rest of his life. But that's not what happened. He started going to renaissance fairs and photographing everything and everyone. The beer wench that he met there changed his life. They've been happily married for years now. You should see the outfit he wore for the wedding. There's nothing in the world like the sight of a 6'3"" 300-plus pound guy in purple velvet and tights carrying a broadsword. The thing is, she thinks he's hot. And she is hot. Plus she always has beer. +Find a creative way to cope with your shyness and/or fear of rejection. Then you've got to figure out what to say to separate a woman from her clothing and make her willing to be separate from her clothing with you. It's hard enough to talk to someone you don't know. It's even harder to get past the talking and get into the nasty, sweaty, crazy sex. (Hold on a second, I got a visual image here...oh yeah...okay) +Charm and humor often work, but you have to be careful. Sweet, funny, charming guys can fall into the most terrifying of traps in male-female relationships. It's one that's easy to get into but like a Chinese finger puzzle it's incredibly difficult to get out of. (If you don't think living with one of those things is tough, try typing with no index fingers for a while-see how you like it.) +The great relationship trap is being 'a friend'. Of course what's worse than being a friend is being a 'good friend'. Beyond that is the dreaded status of 'best friend' or 'just like one of the girls'. If you end up there just have yourself neutered and forget about it. +Strangely enough, women want the man that they share their life with to be their best friend. But best friends don't have sex. To that I say, ""Welcome to marriage."" (My wife doesn't think that's funny at all-in fact she says that just cost me a chance of getting lucky tonight. When I pointed out that she just proved my point, it didn't help. She didn't think that was funny either.) I figured something out though. The trick is to have sex precede the best friend status so you're not doomed to it forever. You have to go through the lust and love to find friendship at the end. Don't worry about it, don't attempt to decipher a hiding meaning or agenda, just acknowledge it and move on. +Overwhelmingly women list a good sense of humor as being a man's most attractive quality. Men, either we are far less physically appealing than we think, or laughing stimulates a woman's libido in some unfathomable way. I know this must be a fact because funny, ugly guys get beautiful women. It's true. If you don't believe me check out the wives of guys like Rodney Dangerfield, Chris Rock or Jerry Seinfeld. Let's face it, nobody's out buying those guys' swimsuit calendars. +Other qualities women find attractive are money and power. Hence the success with women that is enjoyed by men the likes of Donald Trump and Henry Kissinger. (No swimsuit calendars from these guys either.) The problem with these attributes is that you have to orchestrate a military coup in a foreign country, throw around huge wads of cash or fire someone in public. None of these is a good idea because they tend to make a scene. So, what do you say to pick up a woman? Well, I've seen a few unique approaches and I'd like to share them with you. +DISCLAIMER +The following is a list of ways to approach women. In no way do I guarantee that these methods will work or that you should try them. Just because some guy you've never met before (that would be me) writes about someone who allegedly got lucky using one of them (that would be my friends) doesn't mean that any of them will work for you. Please use these tips responsibly and always have a wingman available to take you home, to the ER or post bail as needed. +END OF DISCLAIMER +The Big Question +A keyboard player I knew like to approach a woman when she was with a group of her friends. Though making a move while she's got someone there to help her kick your ass is inherently dangerous and ill advised, he used it to his favor. He was able to approach a girl while she felt safe and had her guard down. He would choose a woman and walk up to say hello. If she were even mildly interested, he would then ask her to marry him. +Though they almost always said no, he got a good laugh (see attractive qualities listed above) just about every time. After she said no, he would ask her out for dinner or coffee. Compared to matrimony, neither was too big of a commitment. If that didn't work he could play the pity card of having his heart broken by the rejection. A few times he ended up with one of her friends instead of the girl he proposed to because she felt sorry for him. (You can refer back to my earlier comments on pity sex to see how that paid off if you need to.) +It did backfire a few times though. Twice women said yes and put him on the spot. The first time he was unprepared and thrown completely off his game. It was fun to watch because he completely lost it and eventually one of us had to go help him get away. The second time the girl was a bit crazy and ready to do it. That led to weeks of her following him around until the restraining order took effect. +The third time was both hilarious and catastrophic. He saw a girl who looked like she needed a good laugh so he took a shot. It was obvious he'd messed up when she started to cry hysterically. For some reason, being reminded she'd been left at the altar that afternoon didn't amuse her. The bridesmaids-to-be who were consoling her descended on him in a fury. It was quite a sight. I laughed so hard I spilled my beer. +The Card Trick +A drummer I worked with for years had a technique he used quite effectively in its day. Though it won't work today in a world full of cell phones, before pay phones went extinct it was quite effective and clever. He called it 'the card trick'. He had a business card printed with nothing but his first name and a phone number on it. Then he had slots cut in it to hold a coin to cover the cost of the phone call. Part of what makes this work is that it's extremely simple and open to interpretation on the woman's part. If they're from out of town you can give them a tour of the city, escort them to cocktail party, or offer assistance if they're in trouble. If they're interested, attracted, intrigued, horny or amused you may get lucky. +It also gives them control of the situation, forcing them to make the first move. Doing that takes a tremendous amount of pressure off you. It lessens the chance of rejection to virtually none. Plus the girl who is bold enough to call is probably bold enough to do other more interesting things without too much persuasion. You do have to be willing to postpone your immediate personal sexual gratification. +You also have to be careful. It's an open-ended thing. You may get a call from a girl long after you've forgotten who she is, after she's been through a terrible breakup, just got out of rehab, or (god-forbid) when she needs reassurance that she's still attractive. +Please remember to never put your full name or home phone number on the card because that's the kind of information lunatics use to hunt you down. +No Nonsense +One of the most daring ways to pick up women that I've ever seen was used by a guitarist I knew. He was a no nonsense, let's not waste our time, go for the gusto kind of guy. (He was also kind of a dumb ass, but I'm not sure if that's relevant.) When he saw a woman he liked he never stopped to figure out what kind of mood she was in. +He never worried about whether she was looking for company or she wanted to be left alone. He never even bothered to check if she was with someone else. He just walked right up to her and asked, ""Do you want to fuck?"" No - Hello, how are you? May I buy you a drink? What's your sign? Do you come here often? - Or any of that bullshit for him. He wanted to get laid and he wanted to find someone who was ready to do it. +As strange as it sounds, he was very successful. Don't get me wrong. It failed plenty of times. I saw him get kicked, slapped, doused with a drink, and worse. I once saw a woman knock him unconscious with a pitcher of beer. He was lucky she did it. If she hadn't clipped him, her boyfriend would have done worse. Fortunately, when my friend went down, her boyfriend was laughing too hard to do anything. If your target woman is looking for sex for its own sake, this can work, but I don't recommend it unless you have a high pain threshold and good health insurance. +A Radical Idea +Which approach is best? You have to figure that out. I'm not as conniving or brutally honest as my idiot friends so my favorite technique is to tell the truth. It's a radical idea, but it works. When I saw someone I was interested in, I'd ask a woman if I could talk to her for a moment. I'd tell her I wanted to find out if she was as attractive on the inside as she was on the outside. It made it difficult for a woman to say something ugly in response. If she did, they proved to me and everyone else in ear shot that her beauty was only skin deep. +If I found a woman so attractive that I didn't know what to say, I walked up and told her so. In one instance I saw a blonde so stunning I was at a loss for words. I walked up and told her that when I saw her I wanted to meet her, but I was at a loss for words. I introduced myself to her and all her friends at the table. Then I explained that I just wanted to say hello because I thought she was so devastatingly beautiful that she left me speechless. After explaining that, I excused myself and begged their pardon for my interrupting their evening. An hour later she was sitting on my face telling me how much she liked me too. That was a fun night. +Women appreciate a sincere compliment but they can detect bullshit from miles away. So if you choose this method it can work, but only if you're honest. I've been told that my self-depreciating manner makes me less threatening, and the vulnerability is charming. Since I'm already explained my inability to express myself I can get off easy. If I'm not invited to join them, I can deliver the compliment and walk away. That gives us both an easy way out. If she's interested, she'll have to help me get the conversation going so I can sit back and let her talk. It worked very, very well. +I tried other methods and some of them worked, but not as well. For me honesty really is the best policy. Since women rarely hear it from men, it probably throws them off guard. I don't know and I don't care. All I know is that it got me laid and I didn't have to lie to anyone. +More Good Advice +So there's no simple, clear answer of what to say. DUH. If it were easy you wouldn't be reading this. It takes thought and planning on your part. But don't over think it. If you plan or practice too much, you'll look rehearsed and come off swarmy. Let it be natural and relaxed. I know you're not relaxed there's an easy answer to that: take a deep breath, let it out slowly and then pretend you're someone way cooler than you really are. +Keep in mind when you get rejected that only one girl has refused you. There are others out there. As I explained earlier, picking up women is a matter of percentages. You've got to roll the dice enough times to come up a winner. When I was out there trying to get laid I always did the same thing. I started by approaching the hottest unattached girl in the room. If I scored, great, if not, I could always work my down. +Learn to read a woman's body language, it can tell you so much about her. I've watched people interact and learned a lot that way. Pay attention. You can read people if you practice. To pick up women, you've got to figure out what to say while not having a clue about what's going on in her head. Short of inventing a device to read minds, you're left with trying to interpret what they want by observation alone. This can get tricky. You see, there's a fine line between 'checking somebody out' and the steely-eyed stare of a wacko. It probably goes without saying but just in case-DON'T CROSS THAT LINE. When you go too far, there's no going back. +If you're lucky while you're checking somebody out, they're checking you out too. That's a wonderful and rare event. One night when it happened to me I pointed it out to the girl in question. I said it seemed like we were attracted to one another. When she said that was true, I mentioned how rare that was and that we should celebrate it. We celebrated twice that night and once more the next morning before she left for work. +But remember, when you're checking a woman out you have to determine a couple of things. Is she approachable? Many have misread the signs and ended up slinking away after being rejected. If a woman is approachable, what does she want? While women think this is not important to know ahead of time, we know better. Few men are out there trying to pick up a new friend. Men want sex. Even if a woman is approachable, figuring out what you can say to get her into bed with you can be difficult. Even then there's no such thing as a sure thing. Let me give you an example. +I met a beautiful girl at a party one night and after a number of drinks, some lively conversation and a bit of making out in a dark corner, she asked me if I'd like to go somewhere more private. Taking this as a sign that sex was imminent, I eagerly agreed. We went back to her place and soon we were enthusiastically groping each other on her bed. During a break in what I assumed was pre-coital fondling, she asked me what I now know was an important question. At the time I didn't realize its significance because I was horny and the blood had rushed out of my head into another part of my anatomy. I wasn't thinking clearly. I tried to be funny and glib and said the first thing that came to mind -- which was the truth. That was when I screwed up. +She asked, ""If I let you stay tonight, will you still respect me in the morning?"" +Like a fool I said, ""I barely know you and I'm already in your bed. What makes you think I respect you now?"" +Moments later as I stood shivering in the cold outside her door looking for my car keys, I realized where it had gone wrong for me. I had told the truth. +It should be obvious by now that I don't know any more about this than you. So just go find a girl who looks nice and say hello. If it goes any further, good for you. If not, find another girl and try again. Good luck. You're going to need it. Oh, and if you can play guitar or sing, that'll make it easier." +457,How To Piss Off An Editor,LadyCibelle,How To,2004-12-02,2004-12-02,2022-01-04 08:33:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-piss-off-an-editor,What not to do in dealing with an editor.,['Editor'],4.6,"_This is my Christmas Gift to all my fellow editors :)_ + In my time as an editor I’ve received stories from people of several continents, male and female. The stories have all been varied and of different lengths _(who says size doesn’t matter!!!!!!!)_ , some good, some bad, some totally awful and some absolutely awesome! +When I first sat down to do this, all I was doing was making a list to myself about all the things a writer does that really pisses me off. I found many more irritations than I initially expected and I wondered if I should make an essay of this. The more I was writing, the more I thought that other editors would recognize the same faults in writers they have worked with or are now working with. Then I **really** thought and realized that I could make it into a how-to list for writers so they know what **not to do** when comes the time to work with an editor; whether they realize it or not. +So here is my list, in no particular order, of what **YOU** , as a writer, should consider never **EVER** doing before engaging with an editor. +I hope this also raises a laugh or two among my fellow editors. As you can see I resisted the temptation to name those erring writers who were the inspiration behind my list. + **• Have an inability to accept criticism and comments;** (Why do they ask us if they don’t want to hear it???) + **• Think that you’re story is so good that you’re doing a favour to the editor in sending it to them;** (Not all writers can be “RGJOHN” or “MASTER_VASSAGO”) + **• Ask for advice but don’t take any;** (Self explanatory) + **• Don’t do the correction(s) suggested by the editor;** (They post their story anyway and then complain to us that they don’t get good reviews) + **• Complain when the editor tells you what is wrong with your story or what its lacking;** (Even the contest winners are not right every time) + **• Don’t re-read what you have written before sending it to the editor; Make him/her double his/her work load correcting minor mistakes that could have been easily done by you;** (What else is the “grammar and spelling” function in Word good for?) + **• Write a story so poorly written that it’s a total waste of time for the editor to go through it;** (Did our education system really let people down so badly:(?) + **• Have no depth of characters or interaction between said characters;** (I know it’s primarily a sex story site but really…!!!) + **• Believe that the editor is your “slave” and will do everything for you;** (You wouldn’t believe what one of them wanted me to do :O!) + **• Think the editor is only a proof-reader and won’t accept that he/she has things to say;** (Yeah sure we are puppets and only there for them to use when the need arise!!!) + **• Expect the editor to do a total rewrite of your work and don’t even say thank you when the final product is done;** (Has anyone else had to change ENTIRE paragraphs?) + **• Don’t read the editor profile correctly and send them a story that they have no interest in editing;** (Don’t you just hate receiving a story in a category your profile specifically excluded?) + **• Be careless how you dress and undress your character;** (They put a hand up her skirt and into her panties but take her jeans down and discover she’s sans panty :-\\) + **• Send the wrong type of file even though the editor clearly mentioned the type of files he wants to receive;** (Self explanatory) + **• Ask for recommendations of what the editor thinks is GOOD writing and then go and trash those writers just because the editor said they were better then you (YOU know who you are don’t you?);** (It’s funny how writers I’ve recommended suddenly get “anonymous” negative feedback when previously they only had praise from everyone) + **• Ask the editor for storylines and/or ideas and pass them as your own;** (One of my “former” writers changed a whole scene in one of his stories using the idea I gave him and his book was published without an appropriate acknowledgement) + **• Don’t appreciate and acknowledge the work the editor did for you;** (A simple thank you does good doesn’t it ?) + **• Change the name of your character halfway through the story;** (One minute she’s Julie and the next she’s Suzy?????? But at least Dave hasn’t become Sheila without a sex-change operation :O) + **• Fail to recognize that some words just aren’t sexy;** (Apologies to British readers but “trousers” just isn’t sexy. We all have our pet peeves so I won’t name them but can anybody REALLY like “poop chute?”) + **• Be inconsistent in the way you describe your character;** (How can their character be a total slut on one page and yet the next is all sweet and innocent; pushing the envelope so far as depicting her as a virgin is totally beyond my understanding!!!) + **• Make derogatory comments about the editor in retaliation to the aforementioned editor’s comments/criticisms about your story;** (Funny how some writers regress to childhood when they don’t like what you have to say!) +This list could go on and on like that.

This year I will use some new ideas, good e-mail information and some dumb humor. You may have heard or read a lot of this stuff before but it's always good to read it again. +Let me start with the wife and grocery shopping. If you're like me, and she asks you to go to the store for bread, milk and eggs, I come back with bread, milk and eggs. When she goes, she has over a hundred dollars worth of groceries. She just went after the same three items that I did. How do you respond? +First: don't say a damn word or you will regret it. You'll be making your own dinner for the next month. +Second: don't ask her if she needs help carrying in the groceries if she is about finished. You will more than likely get your head bitten off and she will be mad the rest of the evening. +What you do is sit so you can see when the car pulls up and run out and help her carry in the groceries. Compliment her for buying your beer. This is her way of saying she spent too much money. Accept this as her apology. Don't say another word. +I used to have a problem when my wife asked me to go shopping with her. First, she asks me and then starts yelling at me. +""Honey, I didn't say a word. Why are you yelling at me?"" I responded. +""I can see it in your face. You won't do anything with me. All I ask is that you do a little shopping with me, but no, you have to watch a dumb ball game."" +Guys, next time do what I have learned to do. You have to understand that if your wife is like mine, you were probably the last person she asked to go shopping. Her friends and family were already busy. Smile and go with her. If she goes to a large store, go to the TV sets and watch your game. She really doesn't want you around bugging her anyway. She just wanted your company getting to and from the store. +Lately I have asked her to go to the mall instead. Of course, there are a lot more stores and she is happy to go there. While she shops, I go to the Cinema and take in a movie. She meets me when the movie ends and we go out to eat. Everybody's happy. +If the mall has a Victoria's Secret, tell your wife to go in and buy something for herself. The chances are if she's bigger than a size five they probably won't have anything that will fit her. She'll smile and make some kind of snide remark, but she will remember your nice gesture. If she does go in and buys something then you just hit the lottery. It's a win-win situation for you. +Then there's the problem when your wife holds up two outfits and asks which one you like. This is a lose-lose situation or at least a bad one. If you answer her you had better have a good reason why you picked the one you did. Better yet, try and reverse it back to her and ask which one she likes better and then agree with her. Let me give you a good example. +I loved watching 'Alias' with Jennifer Garner. In one episode, she was undercover on an airplane. She was supposed to be a hooker for this customer. She came out of a bedroom -- yes, this plane had a bedroom - holding two bra and panty sets. One was black and the other was red. She showed them to the customer and smiled with those big dimples. Damn, I'm getting hot remembering this. +She went back into the bedroom and came out wearing the black panties and bra and looked fantastic. She smiled that beautiful smile, for those looking at her face, and the man said to try on the red one. She went back and put on the red outfit. Again, she came out looking great. +She smiled at the man and then pulled out a gun she had in her hand hidden behind her back. She shot him dead center in the forehead. Her words to him were. ""What was the matter with the black outfit?"" So guys, really give your answers some thought. +So, be very careful what you say when helping her choose an outfit. Remember, no matter what outfit she chooses, her ass is never too big and her boobs always look great. +Speaking of asses. If your wife is blocking your view of the TV and you're missing the game, don't say a word. No matter what you say, all she's going to hear is, ""Get your big fat ass out of the way. I'm missing my game."" +Calmly wait until she moves from blocking the TV and continue watching the game. If you missed anything important, you can always catch the replay or it will be on the eleven o'clock news. Believe me, you'll be glad you waited. +While we are talking about asses, I should tell you about what happened while my wife was cleaning the BBQ grill. I mentioned to her that her ass was the same width as the grill. It was a big mistake. She didn't say anything to me at the time but you have to remember that women never forget any negative statements made by their husbands. +My wife still brings up stuff I said twenty years or more ago. They say elephants have great memories. My wife has them beat by a mile when it comes to things that I've said or done. +Later that night I was horny as hell. I slipped into bed next to my wife and grabbed her butt. I was ready to make love. ""Get your hands off of me,"" she yelled. +""Honey,"" I replied. ""I want to make love to you. I'm all hot and horny for you."" +She turned over and looked at me. ""Do you think I'm going to fire up this big ass grill for one little hot dog?"" Needless to say, I didn't get any that night or for the next month. +Another problem I used to seem to have is my wife always wanted me to stand behind her and protect her. Believe me, she was more than able to take care of herself. I remember one time when we went to this one bar. It was pretty crowded and the only seats in the place were two empty stools at the counter. +We sat down but I didn't realize my wife was sitting next to a man who was totally inebriated. My wife looked at me with that look of disgust. I gave her my, ""I'm sorry, I didn't know"" frown. Then it happened. The drunk let out the biggest fart you ever heard. Phffffffttt. +My wife gave me that, ""do something"" look. I jumped up and pulled the drunk off his stool and started shaking him saying, ""I dare you fart before my wife!"" +The drunk looked at me and, scared as hell, he said, ""I'm sorry, sir! I didn't know it was her turn."" +Toilet seats always seem to be a problem. I'll never know why, if it's up and you have to take a shit or a woman wants to use it, put the damn thing down. If you have to take a piss, then lift it up. Don't piss on the seat. Women don't like to sit on a toilet seat that is all wet. If you pissed on it, then wipe it off. Your wife will be glad you did and it will prevent another argument +A new problem has risen in my household concerning toilet paper. Now my wife gets pissed if the roll is empty when she uses the bathroom. If the roll gets small go in the cabinet and take out a new roll and set it by the old roll. It shows you're at least trying. If for some reason there are only a few sheets on it, throw it away and put the new roll out. +Women have a tendency to use a lot more paper for obvious reasons. Make sure there is enough for her next trip to the restroom. +We guys need to learn which battles are worth fighting for and believe me, a roll of toilet paper is not it. +Oral sex is still a problem at my house. My wife doesn't like to do it. I think one of the reasons is because of her false teeth. I know they are hard to control when eating a pussy because I have that problem too. I just take them out and gum the hell out of her pussy. I asked her to do the same thing. +I've never said it to her but I don't care if she looks great while giving me a blowjob. I just want to come. Besides, I would just as soon that she gum my cock as bite it with false teeth. I'm still working on that problem. +One big problem that pisses my wife off is when I do the grilling. I don't have a lot of say-so here but people always congratulate me on a dinner well done. You see, my wife has thawed the steaks, put the seasonings on them and brought them out on a platter. All I do grill them. +Well, I stand there and keep my eye on them she makes the potato salad, relish tray and everything else for our cookout. Our guests always tell me how good it was. If you have this same problem, don't wait for your wife to get mad. Tell your guests how the little woman did all the hard work and got it all ready. At least it will soften the blow and she might not hate you. +\-------------------------------- +I'm not the only husband with problems. My friend Frank feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she once did and he thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the family doctor to discuss the problem. +The doctor told him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform to give the doctor a better idea about her hearing loss. +""Here's what you do,"" said the doctor, ""stand about 40 feet away from her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you. If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a response."" +One evening my friend's wife was in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in the den. He says to himself, ""I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens."" +In a normal tone he asks, ""Honey, what's for dinner?"" No response. +So, my friend moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his wife +and repeats, ""Honey, what's for dinner?"" Still no response. +Next, he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from his +wife and asks, ""Honey, what's for dinner?"" Again, he gets no response. +So, he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10 feet away. ""Honey, what's for dinner?"" Again, there is no response. +He told me he was scared that his wife had lost most of her hearing so he walked right up behind her. ""Honey, what's for dinner?"" +""Frank, for the FIFTH damn time, CHICKEN, we're having chicken!"" +So before you blame the little lady, make sure you're right. Frank now wears a hearing aid. +My buddies Al, George and Ralph all thought their wives were very simple minded. We were at the bar one day drinking a few beers when the subject of what stupid things our wives do came up. I decided to stay out of this one because whatever I said would somehow, someway get back to my wife and there would be hell to pay. I was interested to see what my friends had to say about their wives. +Al went first. ""My wife is as stupid as they come. The bank called the other day and said our checking account was overdrawn. Linda told me that it wasn't even possible, she still had six checks left in her checkbook."" +George went next. ""My wife did something more stupid then that. She went and bought a lawn mower because it was fifty percent off."" +""What's wrong with that, George? You got a new mower and she must have gotten it at a pretty good price,"" I asked. +""We live in an apartment building and don't even have any grass,"" explained George. +""My wife has got them both beat,"" said Ralph. ""The other day I wanted a cigarette so I went into my wife's purse to get one and I saw a whole box of condoms in her purse. She must have got a hell of a deal on them but I've had a vasectomy and she doesn't have a cock. How much more stupid can she be? "" laughed Ralph. +After listening to Ralph, I thought it was time to go home. I don't think Ralph was wrapped together very tight. +\------------------- +I went to see another one of my friends who was in the hospital. He was beat up pretty badly. He told me that he came home one day and his wife was in her birthday suit. He cracked a little joke and his wife didn't think it was funny. +The way the story goes was that his wife went over to his son's house to visit her new daughter-in-law. When she got there her daughter-in-law was naked except for an apron. When she asked her why she wasn't wearing clothes she was told that their son Brad loved to come home and be greeted at the door with her being naked. He would take her even before they ate dinner. +My friend said his wife thought she would jazz up their love life and try it. When he came home and saw his wife naked, he asked her why she was wearing only her birthday suit. She told him she did it to look good for him. +He made the mistake of trying humor and told her she should have ironed it first. He should be released from the hospital the first of the week. +One time I returned from the bar and my wife was trying on some clothes that a friend gave her. The woman used to dress like a clown. My wife came out with a stripped pair of pants, a checkered blouse and a goofy looking hat. She asked me how I thought she looked. +Shit! Should I tell her the truth or not? She really did look like a clown. So I told her, ""You look like a million bucks,"" I replied. +She responded, ""You've never seen a million bucks."" +I said, ""That's right! You look like something I've never seen."" +I don't think we're talking yet. +\---------------------- +I was writing this short 'How To' when I received an e-mail from a friend. It fit my wife to a tee but I knew if I gave it to her, she would get pissed at me. I sent it to my son who my wife says is nice and nothing like me. I had him send it to his mom and she thought it was hilarious and gave it to me to read. It's about everything his mother has taught him.

To start with, split the group into male and female. One gender will then challenge the other to guess a word that has been jointly agreed upon -- for the purposes of this explanation I'm rather wickedly going to assume the boys' team are challenging the girls to guess the obscure and virtually impossible-to-pronounce name of the Welsh town of Abergwyngiegynn! But the mystery word can of course be anything you like. You should be playing for a nominal prize to ensure everyone has an incentive to try as hard as possible -- perhaps the leftovers of dinner, a cake, or a bottle of something nice. But the important thing to remember is that, in my example, the girls will be playing against each other as well as against the boys' team. If one of the girls guesses the town correctly, she wins the prize all for herself. But if all the girls fail, the boys' team shares the prize between them. +Because there is no way the girls will be able to hit on the name of the town in question by means of a lucky guess (unless, naturally, one of them happens to hail from the general vicinity of Abergwyngiegynn), they will require some fairly direct hints. The boys will start by telling them how many letters there are in the town name (in this case fifteen) and will then offer them the chance to be told specific letters. But these clues must be earned, and the girls will be competing with each other to earn them. For starters they must each, in turn, submit a bid -- an offer of something they're prepared to do to entertain the boys. It can be absolutely anything they like, just so long as it conforms to one cardinal rule -- it must take five seconds or less to perform. So a girl could offer to hum the opening bars of Kumbaya, to do her devilishly good impression of Moldovan President Vladimir Voronin -- or alternatively to flash her breasts for five seconds, or to look deep into the eyes of one of the boys and ask with conviction ""Why do you never make love to me?"". +After the bids are in, the boys' team must collectively decide -- by vote if necessary -- which of the assorted offers sounds the most exciting. The selected girl must then perform her mini-party-piece exactly as she described it in her bid, and provided she does so she can then request the letter of her choice (eg. first, or seventh, or last), which one of the boys will whisper in her ear. As she is competing with the other girls to get to the name of the town first, it is vitally important that the letter is not overheard, and she must commit it to memory. If she fails to remember, it may even be necessary for her to bid for the same letter at a later stage of the game. +If after the first round none of the girls have correctly guessed the town name (rather likely in my example), the bidding process opens again in exactly the same way as before, for offers of any party-piece that lasts five seconds or less. But here's the twist -- the girl with the winning bid must this time perform her own party-piece AFTER she has performed the party-piece of the girl who won the bid in the first round. So if the winning bid in round one was to hum the first few bars of Kumbaya, and the winning bid in round two was the impression of Vladimir Voronin, the winning girl in the second bid must first hum Kumbaya, and then immediately break uncannily into the voice of the esteemed Moldovan President. The same rule applies in each subsequent round -- the successful bidder must perform each of the previous party-pieces in sequence, and then add her own at the end. Only if this is done correctly will she be given the letter she needs -- if not, the bidding process will reopen and she must try all over again. +The beauty of this game is that everyone is in complete control of what they are prepared to do, and consequently there is absolutely no way of predicting which way it's going to develop. It may just turn out to be a very fun and incredibly silly game where nobody does anything sexually suggestive at all. But in the example I've given, the fascinating question would be the dynamic of the girls' group. At some point, probably quite early on, the penny will drop that the sure-fire way of winning the bid is to offer to show some flesh or do something particularly raunchy. But if each of the girls decide to tacitly work with the others to 'suppress the bid' -- by never crossing a certain line - then there will be no need for any of them to cross that line to outbid the others. But it only takes one of the girls to go just that little bit further, and the others will then have to continually up the ante, or else end up passing on their bid and effectively dropping out of the game. +If all the girls pass on the same round, the game is over and the boys win. But if things really get going, and the girls stick with the game and try to outbid each other in ever more daring ways, you could end up with the following actions being breathlessly performed in sequence -- hum the first few bars of Kumbaya, do an impression of President Voronin, make dolphin noises, scream ""I am not a tractor!"" in a German accent, nuzzle boy A's neck, gently massage boy B's hand, quietly suggest Boy C might like to make her pregnant, flash breasts, rudely push boy D's head straight into bosom, stroke boy E's penis...and so on. The possibilities are endless -- or as endless as the five-second rule will permit! +And of course, once the game is over, fair's fair -- it's time to turn the tables and let the girls come up with a ridiculously long Welsh place-name that the boys will have to entertain to discover. It could go on for some time..." +460,How to Play 'Greetings!',GlasgowCity,How To,2008-11-17,2008-11-17,2022-01-04 08:33:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-play-greetings,The rules for a brand new party game.,"['Adult Game', 'Cuddle', 'Game', 'Kiss', 'Naked', 'Party', 'Party Game', 'Strip']",3.86,"It's sometimes said of strip poker that it's a game that's regularly fantasised about, but very rarely played for real. And perhaps I haven't been going to the right parties, but it seems likely to me that there's more than a grain of truth in that -- while games designed as a thin excuse to see your friends in a state of undress (or to snog or grope them) are played commonly enough, they invariably seem to be of the chaotic but curiously one- dimensional 'spin the bottle'/'truth or dare' variety. Presumably the main reason for this is that most people are unlikely to be persuaded to participate in any type of 'strip' game unless they are, shall we say, very much in a wild party mood. Such a mood is infinitely more conducive to spontaneous, relatively structure-free games than to something more celebral like poker. +But it seems to me there is also something being lost there -- the whole frisson of a more structured game is derived from knowing that there are firm rules that must be adhered to, and that those rules might lead to someone ending up naked. More particularly, there is the delicious tension and uncertainty over how it will happen and to whom. Will it happen in twenty minutes' time, or in five? And will it be you? Or that friend you'd like a little sweet revenge over? Or will it be that special person you've secretly had a crush on for months? And will you know where to look if it is? +Incidentally, it's this very tension and uncertainty that the occasional televised versions of these games have generally been unable to replicate. Typically, these will be played out by paid actors or models, and the progress and outcome of the game will have been largely or wholly predetermined -- a fact that usually becomes swiftly obvious to the viewer, leaving no room for any meaningful tension. +So is there a happy medium to be found? Games that have structure and discernible rules, and the consequent frisson in the air, but are at the same time spontaneous, unspeakably daft and lots of fun? I think there really ought to be, and in that spirit -- and also on the basis that a little more variety in life can never be a bad thing -- I plan to suggest a number of new games here over the course of the next few weeks. Some of them might turn out to be a bit too crazy, or too dull, or too contrived, and I'm sure some will never -- or hardly ever - see the light of day. But hopefully one or two might catch some imaginations out there somewhere. +In order to walk before I try to run, I'm going to start in this article with the simplest and least fussy of the ideas I've come up with. It's loosely based on another almost ridiculously simple game -- that old favourite 'scissors, paper, stone'. Just in case there's anyone on the planet who doesn't know how that game works, the idea is that each of the two players simultaneously form one of three shapes with their hand. A fixed (but circular) hierarchy of the shapes determines the winner of each round. Scissors beats paper, paper beats stone, stone beats scissors. It therefore ought to be a game of complete chance, although it has been suggested that it may be possible to increase the probability of winning a round through a mixture of tactics and an ability to read your opponent's non-verbal signals. +So, the first thing to imagine is a game of 'scissors, paper, stone' in which the loser of each round is required to dispense with one item of clothing, and in which play continues until one person is left completely naked (or however far the players decide in advance they want to go). And if there are only two of you around, that may in itself be a fun enough game to play. But of course what we're really looking for here is a game that can be played by several people all at once. So there's a twist. Instead of forming a shape with your hand, you're instead going to physically 'greet' an additional playing partner as if you haven't seen that person for quite some time -- and there will be a choice of three distinct ways of doing this. +The game therefore requires four participants, split into two pairs of 'greeting partners' (although a fifth person would be useful to act as an adjudicator). Ideally, everyone's partner should be of the opposite sex, or someone of a gender they could at least in principle be attracted to. In each partnership, one person must endeavour to stand absolutely still, while the other person -- the 'greeter' -- approaches and performs the act of greeting on them. The direct competition in each round will be between the 'greeters' from each pairing -- they must approach their partner from precisely the same distance and then simultaneously perform the greeting of their choice. +The three possible acts of greeting are the cuddle, the kiss, and -- because some people simply can't control themselves when they greet someone they haven't seen for at least seven seconds -- the grope. You and the other participants must agree before the game starts what each of the three options will actually mean in practice. For instance, you might decide that the kiss should be a chaste peck on the cheek, but on the other extreme you might prefer a more turbo-charged version of the game where you insist on a full-on snog with tongues, lasting a minimum of thirty seconds. Similarly, a safety- first grope might be restricted to some light tickling of an innocuous part of the body, but if you're all in agreement it could just as easily be...well, use your imagination. But whatever you decide, it's probably best to put a tight limit on how long the grope can go on for, so there's no danger of anyone getting carried away! +The all-important hierarchy of the three greeting actions is -- kiss beats cuddle, grope beats kiss, cuddle beats grope. At the start of every round of play, each 'greeter' should stand the same distance from his or her partner (perhaps three or four paces). The tension at this point is heightened by the fact that, although it is only the greeters who are in direct competition, their partners will be equally in the dark about what is about to happen to them, and yet will know they must stand perfectly still while it does (although admittedly that may prove impossible if it involves tickling!). +On the signal of the adjudicator (perhaps an 'introduction' of the playing partners to fit the greeting theme) each greeter must simultaneously move forward and greet their partner in one of the three possible ways. The adjudicator will then declare the winner of the round based either on the hierarchy, or on whether there has been any cheating (ie. one greeter delaying for a second or two to see what the other is doing). +The loser of the round then forfeits one item of clothing, which is passed to the adjudicator for safekeeping, and can only be returned once the game is completed. Again, there are a number of possible variations of how this part of the game can unfold. You might decide that the losing 'greeter' should have their item of clothing removed for them by their playing partner. At the very least, I would suggest that the partner should be able to nominate what is to come off. +If there is an infringement of the rules by the greeter's partner (ie. if he or she fails to make enough of an effort to stay still), the greeter should not automatically be penalised by losing the round. Instead, at the adjudicator's sole discretion, a special forfeit of a single item of clothing can be imposed on the greeter's partner. +Notwithstanding the above rule, you might well be thinking at this point -- isn't this a bit of an unequal game? Only one member of each pairing runs much risk of losing their clothes, and only one runs the risk of being kissed, cuddled or groped? Well, there is in fact one more twist. Just like 'scissors, paper, stone', there is a reasonably high chance that any round of play might result in a stalemate -- that both greeters will choose the same form of greeting at the same time. If this happens, the rule is that the roles in each pairing are instantly swapped over -- the greeter's partner becomes the greeter. This remains the case until another stalemate occurs, at which point everyone swaps back again, and so on. +The game continues until there is a clear loser. Once again, how you will determine this should be agreed at the outset. The most obvious way would be to wait until someone ends up completely naked -- but equally you could opt to play a safety-first version of the game in which only certain items of clothing may be removed, and once these have gone the loser is declared. The important thing is to find the level at which everyone in the group feels safe and comfortable, and that way you can get the most fun out of the game. +So that, in a nutshell, is the game of 'Greetings!'. And although it seems to have taken me a good deal of time to explain it, I hope you'll agree the rules aren't particularly fussy, and that the game also has the priceless advantage of being very, very silly. So if you ever find yourself in the right sort of company, and have half-an-hour you don't quite know what to do with, why not give it a spin?" +461,How to Play 'Liar is my Enemy',GlasgowCity,How To,2009-01-07,2009-01-07,2022-01-04 08:33:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-play-liar-is-my-enemy,A third brand new party game.,"['Game', 'Naked', 'Party', 'Secrets', 'Strip', 'Towel']",3.95,"This could be the ideal game for one of those swelteringly hot days when it's natural not to be wearing very much at a party. The game entails the asking and answering of intimate questions, and the object is to distinguish between who is telling the truth and who is fobbing you off with outrageous lies. But, as you'll discover, there's rather a lot riding on you guessing correctly. +The guys in the group will be playing against the girls, and one side must agree to reveal some of their deepest, innermost secrets – while the other side will run the risk of revealing themselves in a rather more literal way. For the purposes of this explanation I'm assuming the guys will be asking the questions and the girls will be answering them. Because it is this way round, the boys should be clad in towels (it's an open question whether they'll be wearing anything underneath, but I'll return to this later). For them, the aim of the game is to keep those towels on – and the aim of the girls is to thwart them in that quest. Simple as that. +The boys should each write their name on a separate piece of paper, and fold it twice so the name cannot be deciphered. It's important that everyone folds their sheet in roughly identical fashion. The sheets should then be rounded up and placed in a pile. Then, take some more pieces of paper (enough to make the overall number equal to exactly double that of the number of girls in the group), write the work 'blank' on each of them, fold them up and add them to the pile. +The papers should then be thoroughly mixed up so no-one has any idea which one is where, and each girl should pick out two sheets at random. She should unfold them without showing anyone else, and then read what's there. Whichever girl has ended up with a particular boy's name will become his designated 'enemy' for the duration of the game, and the one who will be aiming to relieve him of his towel at the conclusion – but, at least to begin with, he'll have absolutely no way of knowing where the danger lies. The only clue will come from the fact that she'll be required to tell him an outright lie every time he asks her a question, while all the other girls will be required to tell him the truth as far as they can. If any girl ends up with two pieces of paper with the word 'blank' written on them, she'll be the enemy of no-one, and must tell the truth at all times. +The boys then take turns in asking each of the girls an intimate question. It must be one he could have no prior knowledge of the truthful answer to. He must try and judge which of the girls is lying to him, looking for crucial clues such as non-verbal signals, the length of time it takes to formulate an answer, and of course the general plausibility of the response. Possible questions could include ""who or what were you thinking about the last time you masturbated – describe in detail"", ""have you ever spied on someone naked without them knowing, and if so who was it?"" or ""have you ever – for any reason – thought about any of the people in this room when you were making love to someone else, and what was the thought?"". +Once all of the boys have had the chance to ask each of the girls a question, it's time for a second full round of interrogation. The boys can use any clues they may have picked up so far to help them frame their second question in the most effective way. If, for instance, one of the girls stood out as a particularly lousy liar, it might be sufficient to ask her ""that story you told me earlier about the nun and the pogo-stick – that wasn't entirely true, was it?"" And if she bursts into a fit of helpless giggles at that point, you may well conclude you've nailed your enemy. On the other hand, if the identity of your opponent is still a complete mystery, it might be an idea to throw in a curveball by asking the girls questions that touch on their self-identity, values and individual sense of morality. If a particular girl has a self-image of being very giving, it will require something of a mental flip to describe herself as an inwardly very self-centred person. Requesting that she describe the nature of her selfishness in detail may well lead to her giving the game away. +Examples of questions that might be asked at this stage are ""do you care for the well-being of another person more than yourself, to the extent that you would – in a real-life rather than fantasy scenario – consider dying for them?"", ""have you ever secretly enjoyed seeing a friend upset, and if so why?"" and ""have you ever told someone you loved them, knowing it wasn't true, in order to gain any one of the following things – attention, money, sex – and if so how do you feel about yourself for having done it?"" +Now that the interrogation is over, we reach the tense conclusion of the game. The girls should line up in a row, and one boy should step forward to face them. The girls will ask the question ""so, which of us do you trust?"". The boy will respond ""I trust..."", adding the name of the girl he is most sure has been telling him the truth throughout, and who he therefore believes is not his secret enemy. That girl should then approach him, taking hold of the top of his towel between her fingertips, while he keeps his hands and arms well out of the way so he cannot interfere with what might be about to happen. He should then ask her ""did you tell me the truth about (fill in the blank)?"". As soon as he has completed his question, the girl will do one of two things. If he's called it right and she's not his secret enemy, she'll say ""of course I did"" and take her hand away from the towel. Perhaps a chaste kiss on the cheek might be in order, in recognition of the fact that this is clearly a relationship founded on absolute honesty. +If, on the other hand, the boy has misread the situation completely, and the girl he calls forward is in fact his secret enemy, on the completion of his question she should make a cheeky reply such as ""no – simple question, simple answer"", while abruptly whipping his towel off. +If the boy guessed correctly, though, his troubles are far from over. He must repeat the above process with each of the girls, either until his towel disappears, or until there is only one girl left. Only if the one girl he chose not to call forward is his enemy will he be safe, and retain his towel. Either way, the process is of course then repeated for each of the remaining boys in turn. +And to return to the crucial question – will the boys be left naked if they're unlucky enough to be robbed of their towels? That of course is up to them to decide in advance, but they might just feel it's in their own interests to be bold and take the risk, ie. if their masterplan is to shame the girls into wearing little or nothing underneath when they don their towels for the next session of the game! +In fact, the beauty of 'Liar is my Enemy' is that there is an inherent trade- off in the rules of the game that might make it easier to coax mildly reluctant people into taking part – ie. ""if you want a truthful answer to that question you've always wanted to ask me, now's your chance, but you'll have to risk ending up naked to get it"". Or ""I know you've always wanted to see me with all my clothes off, and you might just be in luck, but first you'll have to tell me your deepest, darkest secrets"". +And that concludes the third in my series of suggestions for new party games. Who knows, I may yet try your patience with a fourth at some point!" +462,How to Play - Doing Hard Time,dirtyjoe69,How To,2006-07-23,2006-07-23,2022-01-04 08:33:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-play-doing-hard-time,A game for swingers.,"['Adult Game', 'Anal', 'Game', 'Money', 'Party Game', 'Public', 'Sex Game', 'Swingers', 'Swinging', 'Toys']",3.43,"_NOTE- This is just a game and the terms are for entertainment purposes only. No real ""rape"" is meant to occur. The game is to be played by consenting adults only!_ +If you do try the game let me know if you had a good time. +* +The wife and I have been having swinger parties for the past ten years. Even though they are fun, they are a lot of hard work. You always have to come up with different themes, and different games to get the party started. While sitting down one night preparing for the next soirée I came up with a little game called Doing Hard Time. You don't need many items and it is real simple to play. It is a mixture of Truth or Dare and Three Man (that is a drinking dice game). The game is designed for 3 or more players. Here are the items you will need to play this fun game: +-A pair of dice +-Some restraints- scarves, handcuffs, zap straps or what ever else you can find to tie your wrists up +-A toy of some kind- vibrator, dildo, butt plug +-Lube, of course +-Any kind of currency- we try to use cigarettes for authenticity but you can use coins, candy or monopoly money even poker chips would work +The object of this game is to become the ""Big Dog"" of the jail. And you do that by accumulating everyone else's ""currency"". +You start of with an equal set amount of currency say a pack of smokes each. You each roll one die to figure out who rolls first. The highest roller gets this privilege. Now going in a clockwise order you roll the dice. +If you roll a double you take the number on one die and become a ""taker"". You choose who you want to take from. You may split it up if you want to. If you roll a double you must roll again. +*Note- All doubles count for taking except double sixes (that will be explained later) +If you don't roll a double you become a ""giver"". Unlike being a ""taker"" you don't get to choose who you give to. +If on your roll, you roll and even number 4,6,8,10 then you start handing out a single ""currency"" to each person starting on your right. Until you have given the amount on the higher of the two die. So if you rolled a 10, and it was a six and four you would start on your right and six people would get a ""coin"" each. If you have a small number of people playing you just skip yourself and continue distributing around the circle. +If you roll an odd number follow the same instructions but this time start on your left. +If by chance you roll double sixes then you must remove your clothes and keep them off for the remainder of the game. This is know as ""solitary confinement"". You still get another roll after since it is doubles. If you happen to roll second double sixes in a row then you get to pick a person of your choice to join you in ""solitary confinement"". +*Note- Once you lose your clothes they stay lost! +As the game goes on some will run out of ""currency"". If this happens they become the ""prison bitch"". If you become a ""prison bitch"" you can no longer collect on rolls, however the dice now have different meaning for you. +If you roll three doubles in a row you are no longer a ""prison bitch"". So when you roll a double it makes it a safe roll for you. +If you don't roll a double and it is an even numbered roll you once again take the highest die and count from your right. The person who is in that spot you must perform a ""favor"" for. A ""favor"" is much like a dare in Truth or Dare. You have the right of refusal on any dare but you forfeit your next roll. +If you roll an odd number then you start from the left following the same rule. +If someone else rolls and is a ""taker"" and they choose you, you must perform a ""favor"" for that person. +*Note- a ""taker"" can not receive ""currency"" and a favor on the same roll. They must pick which one they want. +If one rolls three double sixes in a row they get ""prison raped"". They must either take a toy or an ""inmate"" of there choice and have intercourse. However the person gets their fourth roll before any ""prison rape"" can occur and if the person happens to roll double sixes a fourth time in a row they become the ""rapist"" and get to choose the ""target"". The ""rapist"" also gets the privilege of binding the ""target"" up in restraints. +*Note- You do not have to become a ""target"" but you forfeit your next turn. But if you are the roller and have to receive ""prison rape"" then you must at least use a toy on yourself. +Once again the winner becomes the ""Big Dog"" on the cell block and this is achieved by collecting every one else's ""currency""." +463,How to Play Texas Hold'em,dirtyjoe69,How To,2006-12-25,2006-12-25,2022-01-04 08:33:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-play-texas-holdem,Tips on improving your game.,"['Cards', 'Games', 'Poker']",4.11,"There are a few pointers I am going to give you here that might help you win the next time you play Texas Hold'em. I am not guaranteeing that you will win but some of my strategies have worked for me. +Always keep you emotions in check. If you watch the great players they never get frazzled when they get a bad beat. If you lose a hand just chalk it up to ""that's playing poker"". If you don't do this you might play a hand that you wouldn't normally play just because you are playing mad as opposed to smart. +Read all you can on the subject. The more knowledge you have on the game and the nuances of the game can only help you. I suggest reading strategies from the great players like Scotty Neugen. Guys like Scotty have been to the biggest final tables and know what they are talking about. There are many books on odds, feeling and position. +Feel the table out before you jump in a on a big bet. Try to play tight at the start of a game (tight means don't play in every hand) and see what others are doing. This will give you a read on opponents and whether they always play and how they are betting. You may not win a lot of chips at the beginning but at least you will have chips to play later on. +Play your cards. If you don't have it and someone is calling your bluff get out of the hand as fast as you can! You will just be giving your chips away. +If you get the feeling you could be right. Sometimes when you play you get a feeling about your cards. The good poker players go with their gut more times than not. It might mean that you are taking a risk but you get no reward without risk. +Don't buy into the ""I never win with such and such a hand"". If you think you have a powerful hand the odds are in your favor. Just because your bullets burned a couple of times before you still can't shy away from the dominant cards. If you think you are going to lose with the hand you got then you have already lost. Good poker players will read you like a book! +Keep your emotions in check. If you wear your heart on your sleeve you will never be able to become a good poker player. Your emotions give your cards away and a good player will eat you up for breakfast. +Learn the odds. Know what beats what and what the odds are getting a card you need on the flop, turn and the river. If you play the odds you will win more than you lose, that is why they call it odds. Know how many out cards you have available left in the deck, if you are chasing a flush or straight this is critical. +Make sure you look at the board over and over again. I can't tell you how many times my two pair or three of a kind has been beaten by a low straight because I wasn't reading the board. If you are on the final bet look over the board and go over all the best possible hands your opponent can have. +Don't bet too early if you have the best hand possible with the cards on the board. Maybe limp in to show weakness to keep others around. If you make a powerful bet and represent a big hand you will scare potential chips off the board. If you check, or bet small you can sucker others along. That way when someone thinks they have a good hand and you have them, and then bet big. +Show your cards from time to time. When all people fold to your bet show your cards every once in awhile to show them you had the dominant cards or that you do know how to bluff. This will make it harder for them to read you later on in the game. +Decide what type of player you are going to be at the beginning of the game and play that persona. If you are going to be the nice guy be the nice guy. If you are going to be a bully don't half ass it. If you are going to be the jokester then keep them laughing.

I was raised in a church, taught the ways of the Bible. A True Southern girl. I cook, I clean, Believe that a man is truly the head of the household and while you should have a mutual relationship, he should be the sense of all power. Except for one thing. When it comes to pleasing a man. +I love the thought of being controlled in a bed. Of a man pinning me down to the bed with his rough demeanor, overpowering me in the quest to bring us both to ultimate pleasure. A utopia, in which worlds spin and collide, sending both of us shaking, sweating into a thriving, pulsating, want, need and hunger. Craving the others flesh with ours burning from the touch of theirs. +But there is one time that I want control. +It's something that controls my thoughts nearly 95% of the time. +When I yearn to please a man. With just my mouth. +Anyone can open their mouth, stick a penis in it and go up and down a few times and call that a blow job. +But it is called a job for the work put into it. I don't look at it as a chore. It is something I must do in order for his life to continue. This man may die if I don't stick his thick, pulsating, hot quivering cock in my mouth. Yet it is something so simple to do. If you can follow a few steps. +First. You must want it. +Don't think of it as you sticking his penis in your mouth and how gross it is. It's not. You are taking one of the most sensitive parts of a man into your mouth. Don't think of it as your mouth. This is one of the most controlling parts of your body. With it alone you can bring a man to the brink of ecstasy. +Second. You must assume the perfect position. +This is a land of many choices. You want to make sure he is completely relaxed. So he can concentrate on what you are doing. A few choices for this are, him lying on the bed, him in a recliner, or sitting in a chair. From this angle you can sit in-between his knees. This proves to have very good leverage on your part to put your whole body into the act. +For those who are a bit more advanced you can soon start to experiment with this position. My all time favorite is having him stand (leaning on a wall if nessesary) with you at his feet on your knees. This position allows for him to thrust into your mouth, but still you have control of the situation. Again, being on your knees allows for leverage on your part and using your whole body. Another position (that I wouldn't recommend if you CAN'T deep throat) would be have him lie on a couch, but on his side, you again on your knees but sitting facing the couch, so that he is fucking your face. This is what I call my lazy position. I've used it when I was sick, had a headache, or even had just had a tooth pulled and didn't want to do the work!! This is giving him a lot of control though. So make sure that you're ready to finish it another way if you don't like the idea of your face being beaten like that...but its soooo hot that I suggest at least trying it once! +Okay. So you're psyched. You've got your guy in the chair. He is naked. You're in between his knees. He is in hog heaven. He can't believe that you've actually asked to give him a blow job. He didn't have to beg. What now..... +Make sure you're comfortable, put a pillow under your knees if nessacary, be prepared to be there anywhere from 3 minutes until 2 hours later....You have a JOB to do lady! Get ready to go! (And yes...I've actually done one for 2 hours) +Okay. Using your hands slide them down till about mid thigh. (And YES hands are okay, remember where I said leverage for your WHOLE body...USE IT) Then back up, taking your left hand slide it around the area around the base of his penis...depending on where he is on the hard level this may help if not its teasing...which is amazing . Using your right hand, gently but firmly grip the base of his penis, sliding your left hand down to his balls, cupping them slightly. +With your mouth partially open and your tongue sticking out guide his cock (such a better word) towards your mouth. Licking from the base of his cock on the underside to the tip of it. Wind your tongue around the hole of his cock. Even gently sticking your tongue in it if the mood strikes. Take ONLY the head into your mouth, devouring it as if it were a blow pop. While doing this gently rub your right hand up and down the shaft. If he wasn't already, he is usually rock hard by this point. While his cock is in your mouth swirl your tongue around it. Getting it nice and wet. Remove your mouth only to go right back down and slowly work your way down the cock. From the head to as far as you can go. +Being able to develop a rhythm of doing it is the key now. You've got him hard wet throbbing at your mercy. Use it. +It is important to constantly have his entire cock covered with some sort of movement. Whether your hand is going at it. Or your mouth. +I like to use both. I usually start off going up and down the shaft with my whole mouth, with my right hand at the base of his penis (for not wanting to deep throat yet). I proceed to go up and down many times as fast as I can. When my neck begins to get sore from this I start using my hand to move up and down his shaft. +Don't be afraid to use pressure, to go fast or of hurting him. He touches himself everyday. He will let you know what he doesn't like. And what he does. I use a firm consistent pressure. With both my mouth and hand going I know that he is having ""full coverage"" Keep up your speed unless you're teasing (which will come at a later day). +Remember you're goal is to have him quivering by the time you are done. Stopping and going is only going to slow this process for you. Keep pumping away with your hand and using your mouth too. +You can tell from the sounds of the guy what he is into what you are doing. Shallow breathing, clenched fist holding on to the chair and ooohs and ahhhs are the key. +Keep doing this until you can tell he is about to cum. A good key to this is by having your hand on the bottom of his shaft. Most guys have a vein that starts pulsating signally the speeding up of the blood, other guy's thighs start clenching and you can feel the muscles. If you're paying attention, and please do pay attention. +Okay. He is about to cum. What do you do??? +Personally. I put all the hard work into it I want to devour every drop. IF you should choose to swallow, (the only way I'll do it) he WILL love it. +Regardless of how you do it when he is about to cum, do NOT whatever you do slow down your pace. Keep it going. At this point I am usually using just my thumb and ring finger to jack him off while my mouth is still going at it. When he starts cuming I like to deep throat at that time. While still using my hands....This took time to build up to. I slam my face into him and start gulping like I haven't drank in years. I just ran a 10K and this is the best thing I've EVER tasted. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. But there are tricks for that too.  +If you've swallowed then remove your hand almost immediately. Most guys are VERY sensitive afterwards, but still allow your mouth to gently w/out pressure this time move up and down his shaft. You want to make sure you don't leave any messes! If some has dripped out of your mouth and onto him, lick it up. No matter where it is. +If you've opted not to swallow then make sure you have tissues around for clean up. And you do the clean up. You were doing a job remember....finish it.... +Afterwards sit back and enjoy the smile on his face. Don't expect anything in return. You did this just for him. Yours will come later....and maybe the next time you go down on him...you'll be the one cumming too...I've had it happen!!!—The C.Fiend." +465,How to Please a Woman,KCBadBoy,How To,2001-05-20,2001-05-20,2022-01-04 08:33:14,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-please-a-woman,Learn to give her the incredible orgasms she deserves.,"['Blood Supply', 'Finger', 'Finger Clit', 'Pubic Bone', 'Spot', 'Start Rubbing', 'Top Vagina', 'Vagina Wall', 'Woman Body', 'Woman Clit']",4.37,"Sometimes I think guys just don't have a clue about a woman's body. Judging from what my past lovers have told me I would be right. After having sex with a girl a few times, I can usually have them cumming within two minutes of initiating sex. I have heard many stories about all the things that guys have to do to get a girl in the mood. The easiest way to get a girl in the mood is for her body to know that you have knowledge to make her cum like she has never cum before. Then it becomes a subconscious effort on the girl's part. You just touch her and she knows what is about to happen. The juices kick in and all that time that is spent on foreplay isn't needed. I am not saying don't have foreplay. It is a good thing. Caressing a woman's body is incredible; so is running your lips across it. There is nothing better than feeling a woman tremble at your touch. So do not stop the foreplay. +Let's talk about a woman's clit. This is what it's all about. This thing only has one purpose to allow a woman to get off. They come in many different sizes. Generally speaking about the size of the tip of your pinky finger. It is location is at the top of the vagina; there is a hood of skin over it when it isn't aroused. When it is aroused then it will usually pop out of it's hood. Be careful, it is very sensitive. Don't rub it while it is dry. This will cause her pain and she will not give you anything! Make sure anything you use against it is well lubricated; whether it is a finger or a tongue. +Fingering a clit for most of us guys is very difficult. We have tendency to be very rough. Most girls do not enjoy this; you must be very gentle. If your finger is very wet then just try rolling your finger around the clit this should start getting to her. Stop every now and then, run your finger up and down her lips, this has two effects. One she will really enjoy it. The lips are very sensitive also. For your purpose it will rewet your finger. No need to make it obvious, by lubing your finger by putting it in your mouth. Some women find this to be a turn off, use her juices to lube your finger. She will just think the rubbing of the lips is just part of the action! +Some girls can be made to cum with just a finger. However if you do this you are cheating them of even greater pleasure. There is nothing like a tongue to send her over the edge. By this time she should be getting excited. If you were to look her clit should be sticking out of the hood. Get down between her legs, from this angle her clit will be right on top. Take a moment to look at it and feel it. Start at the tip of the clit. It should be throbbing is she is responding. Take your finger and run it up the clit towards her belly button. Notice the clit isn't just a little button and it goes back into her body. +Now here is the key, remember when you were a kid and you would put a rubber band around your finger? What happened? It swelled up; this is what you want to do to her clit. Take a finger above where the clit sticks out of the hood press down so that the blood supply is cut off between your finger and her pubic bone. Be careful of her hair, if she has hair, that is. If you do not press right then you are libel to pull some of her hair; she will not like this a bit. You can also try using your upper lip to do this. +However, you will have to use some pressure and if you do it long enough you will leave an impression against the back of your lip from your teeth. You may also get some swelling of your lip. These are simply temporary drawbacks, and they are greatly outweighed by the rewards. When the blood supply is cut off then her clit will become even more sensitive. It will not take long for her to orgasm if you are licking her clit while doing this. Also try pressing then releasing while flicking her clit with your tongue. Remember each girl is different. You will have to figure out what she likes best. +Nevertheless, let us presume that you just simply do not have the time, or want to invest the time. You need to get her off and yourself. What is the easiest way? Oral sex, of course. There is not anything like your tongue against her clit to push her over the edge. But there is also is not any reason that you have to do it for half an hour before she responds. You have to find her G spot. She will thank you after for the time you take to find it. The way to go about finding this ""G"" spot is to take your index finger and slide it into her vagina palm up. Now curl your finger up so that it is curled around her pubic bone. Do you feel where her pubic bone meets with the top of her vagina? That is the area her ""G"" spot is in. Just start rubbing in this area, if she does not respond then move your finger a little and try again. You will have to apply pressure. This is not a spot that likes it gentle. The reason is that the ""G"" spot is not in the vagina wall; it is behind it. So you have to use enough force to push the vagina wall into the ""G"" spot. If she says it hurts then back off, but remember to use pressure. +If you tell her you are trying to find it then it should be easier. She can tell you what feels good and what does not. If she tells you that it feels like she has to pee then you have hit the mother load. Don't worry she will not give you a golden shower, but at this point it will seem that way to her. If either of you is worried about then have her relieve herself before you start. +Keep rubbing this spot. The sensation she is having will soon turn to pleasure. You will not believe the difference this will make in the way she is responding to your touch. She will have an explosive orgasm. Probably one of the best she has ever had. +It is possible that she will squirt when she cums. This is normal for some girls. For those who can do squirt, it causes a wonderful sensation. The ""G"" spot causes this; much like the prostate on the man it will ""ejaculate"" when overly stimulated. If a girl is really turned on and her ""G"" spot is stimulated a lot the fluid will build up and actually squirt from her vagina. Don't worry, this is not urine. It is pretty much clear and tasteless, but be prepared because some can really soak the bed!!! +We have covered a lot up to this point. Until recently I thought this might be as good as it gets for the woman. However, I was seriously mistaken. There is another spot within her vagina that really gets them going. I have heard it referred to as the Epicenter. This spot is at the rear of the vagina along the top wall near the uterus. When I first heard about this I was very skeptical. I had never in all my days of pleasuring a woman heard of such a thing. So of course I had to see if it was for real. Let me tell you, from front line experience, it does! I have tried it and had incredible results. It makes for a fulfilling orgasm." +466,How to Pleasure a Lady - & Yourself,Teenage Venus,How To,2004-07-27,2004-07-27,2022-01-04 08:33:15,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pleasure-a-lady-and-yourself,Advice from a Teenage Sex Connoisseur.,"['Back Tease', 'Coronal Ridge', 'Firmly Wrapped', 'Grip Hard', 'How To Pleasure A Lady - & Yourself', 'Orgasm Clit', 'Orgasm Make', 'Orgasm Women', 'Stimulation Clitoris', 'Trust Partner', 'Vacuum Suck']",4.65,"Whatever sex or age you are, sex plays a great part in ” Mr, Mrs, or Ms Average’s” life. Invariably, each of you have aims, hopes, and expectations of certainly achieving great orgasms for yourself – and most likely – giving them to your partner. Unfortunately, few know how best to do this. +Cunnilingus; (going down on her) Fellatio; (giving a blow job) Masturbation, Intercourse: These are the usual paths to Ejaculation/Orgasm. (Getting off.) +In the case of self-gratification by masturbation, males usually do this reasonably satisfactorily by using their hands to stimulate their penis - so producing an ejaculation. With females, a much more varied source of body areas, techniques and objects are available to assist in achieving orgasm. Stimulation of breasts, clitoris, labia, and internal vagina (and other erogenous areas) are all used singly, or in various combinations, to reach a single (or series) of climaxes. I intend to concentrate here mainly on how best the male can pleasure his female partner. Taking any woman to the point she has to orgasm is a thing any guy can do to any gal – it just needs ‘know- how.’ However, I will list first a few techniques females can employ to attain orgasm in those moments alone when they feel randy – +Some Female Masturbation Techniques +“Tickle Your Fancy”:- Anything soft will do for this: paint brush, feather, bit of velvet! Start by tickling your nipples, then breasts and belly. Move it around your body, but don't touch your vagina. Then start on your inner thighs, back to nipples and belly, and then move down to your thighs again. Keep this up as long as you can stand it. The result is usually very intense. +“Ice-cool Ecstasy”: - Whilst lying naked and comfortable, have some ice-cubes to hand. Begin by slowly rubbing a cube on your breasts. Circle your nipples with it, and slowly proceed to move the cube down your body, finally on to your clitoris and labia. There is nothing like the icy temperature to set your nipples pouting erectly, or giving your clitoris an extreme energy rush. +“Lazy Washday Vibes”:- Whilst they are switched on doing the wash, park yourself on top of your washing- machine or dryer. Adjust your position and legs to get the full benefit of the vibrations. Cross your arms and relax. Let the vibes do the work until you cum and cum again. +“The Roller”, or “Tweeker” technique:- Using thumb and index finger, hold your clitoris between them, then roll it gently between them. Adjust the speed and pressure best suited to you to achieve an orgasm. Paused: • Right before you are about to climax, Stop. Relax a little, and then return masturbating. A few times doing this will make the end=result more powerful. +“The Clit Grinder”:- Grind your clit against any suitable object: Door, chair/sofa arm, and rock back and forth against it like you would a thrusting penis Use some fing help if you need it – chances are you won’t. +“Toad in the Hole”:- Stick a warm sausage inside a condom and stick it inside your vagina (hang on to the condom end!), then just enjoy it, or use your lower muscles to hurry things along. Unlike a penis, they don’t go soft on you at the instance when you need them hard most! (More enterprising ladies may prefer a sizeable cucumber!) +“Jetting Off”:- Whilst using a removable shower head to play water on your clitoris is a favourite ploy, your bath may not have one attached. An alternative to this is to have an empty liquid soap, or shampoo bottle in the bath with you. Fill it with water, hold it very close to your clitoris, and squeeze. The water jets out onto your clit – and WOW! +“Tap Dance”:- Lay on your back and pop your index finger on to yourr clitoris. Start lightly tapping it rhythmically, and continuously. Adjust the speed and pressure as the urge strikes you, until you just have to cum. +“The Seamstress”:- You need a pair of tight jeans for this. They have a stout seam runs near your clitoris. Sit in a chair and rock back and forth whilst moving it across your clit. That gets most females going. +“Polish the Pearl”:- using an electric toothbrush is best for this. Gently pop it onto your clit, and start ‘polishing’ it all over. Every gal I know that tried this says it is simply the best. +“Strip Tease”:- Lay down naked on your back with a small pillow by your side, and finger- tease yourself for a short while. Then roll over onto the pillow and hump it until you are about to orgasm - then stop. Repeat this as often as you can stand it. When you DO ‘explode’ it feels like a bomb went off inside. +“Good Vibrations”:- A decent size waterproof vibrator is needed for this: Get naked, lay and relax, switch on the dildo and set to work .lightly caress your my whole body – except your vagina. Give plenty of attention to nipples and breasts. Wait until your nipples are gorged and rock hard. By that time your pussy is hot, wet, and begging for attention. Use your dildo to start pumping in and out of your vagina, whilst using your other hand to rub your clit in a slow circular fashion. You do what comes naturally as your body starts to spasm. Just go for it… +(Many women never achieve orgasm through intercourse. A surprising number never experience an orgasm throughout their life. This has to be sad, and it is not so much the lack of desire to do so, as their own or partners’ lack of knowledge on how to achieve/induce one: It is my aim to pass this knowledge to both, in the writing that follows:) +I defy any man to fail to induce orgasms in his partner if he heeds my instructions. I defy any female desiring to have an orgasm to not get off if she is at the receiving end. First requisite is that each trusts the other and feels comfortable being intimate with them. This is more important for the female than the male. In general, if a guy is feeling randy he is as able to get off ‘shagging’ a knot-hole as he is a 36” 24” 36” sex bomb. Whilst most females can get off by themselves, and most by having a partner help, how frequently, how satisfying, and how intense, is proportionate to the trust they have in their partner, and his sexual skills. +Does penis size matter? It does not need to. (Though in fairness, I would sooner have ten inches than ten centimetres attending to my internal needs!) However, the bog standard average five point zero three inch American Male’s appendage will induce the desired effect admirably. Whilst a ‘quicky’ will keep a man happy, it invariably leaves his partner disappointed, unfulfilled, frustrated, and feeling cheated. +“Bang, bang, thank you Ma’am” is okay for the guy: It’s as much use to the girl as a top hat with sleeves in. The moral to this, men, is to treat your partner. That is right – give her a treat each time you screw with her – leave her satisfied and content. Believe me it’s better for both of you than your ‘bang, bang – shoot your load, - roll over, grunt, fart, and start to snore! +It is unfortunate, but so many females are so badly disappointed with their partner’s efforts, they find it best to ‘ let him get his rocks off quick’, and simulate an orgasm to keep him happy. The guy thinks he is a super-stud and is quickly snoring loudly – resembling a bear with asthma. Few men know when the woman is faking it, and ‘experts’ have you believe you cannot tell – but you can: Next time you think you are an 'all-pleasing rampant stallion', check her breasts and nipples. Note the difference between them when she does have an orgasm – and when she is just kidding to keep the peace. (Note: You may have to catch her at it alone in the bathroom to do that!) +Just for once – next time you decide to ‘bang’ her – try making gentle love to her instead. It is worth the effort for both of you. +Approach lovemaking with a purpose: That purpose should be to pleasure your partner. (In doing so, you pleasure yourself.) Bringing a female to orgasm can be likened to blowing up a festive balloon. It needs handling carefully (no fingernails causing damage), and takes just a little patience and effort to get things going. Women resemble a balloon (not literally, ha, ha,): Often a moist tongue and kiss around the neck makes the job easier. It is a little hard to get her build-up started – just as it is to get the first puff of air into the balloon. However, once that first step is over, the rousing of her sensuous emotions becomes progressively easier as you fill up her emotional balloon. +As with the balloon, do not rush too much once you are on the way. Feed her emotions as you would the balloon, taking care not to blow and burst it in one big rush. Pause for a moment to take a breath. If the balloon had a life of its own, it would want to be filled to brimming in a few large breaths. Your partner should now be feeling the same. Hold her, admire her, and tease her. Make her want it – then give her a little more. Kiss her tenderly, slowly, gently. Fondle her – but do not grope her. Keep concentrating on her upper body and breasts, only occasionally letting your hand or lips hover anywhere near her pubic mound. Caress her, stroke her, lead her right to the edge, and then ease off. Move to slightly less erogenous areas. Stroke her arms and wrists. Keep her hot, but tormented. She wants to get on with it, wants to feel you inside her, make her wait. +Vary your caresses: Be gentle, fondle her breasts, circle but do not touch her nipples. Use your mouth and flick your tongue around them. You will feel her desire building. Her thighs will strain involuntarily, hungry for you, begging for attention. Making love is an art. Women love the foreplay: the embracing, kissing, the sensuous touching, and the feeling of being loved. This is the reason we concentrate initially on any part of her body but that all- important spot between her legs. +If you go straight to her ‘pussy’, subconsciously she thinks all you want is to screw her. Of course you do, but let her know that you love all of her. Let her feel that you love her completely – not just her pouting hole. For this very reason, you should always follow a few rules. Even if she is just a ‘one- night-stand', follow them. Word will soon get round that you really are a stud, and other females will seek you out. (Give a ‘one-nighter’ the ‘whip-it- in-shoot-whip-it-out-and-wipe-it’ treatment, and you will soon find it harder to pick up a ‘piece of stray’). +If she is a steady partner or wife, by following these rules you will keep her happy and eager. (Convenient ‘headaches’ become a thing of the past). She will look forward to each new session with genuine desire and expectation. Her vaginal juices will start to flow, and – if you could see it – her pussy is already starting to gorge and pout in anticipation. +1/ Treat her as your best friend. Convey to her that she is the best thing in your life. Even hold and squeeze her hand. Gaze into her eyes; look at her with love filling your own. Look often and long into her eyes as you start your lovemaking. +2/ Let your caresses and kisses cover every part of her body (except her vagina. In seconds, you turn her whole body into one complete erogenous zone. Include her hair, ears, neck, eyes, shoulders, inner/outer arms, hands, between her breasts, thighs, buttocks - legs, feet, toes even. +3/ Vary your order (never follow a set routine.) As you feel her respond, tease her by including brief caresses and kisses to her inner thighs, then gaze into her eyes again before continuing to stimulate other areas. +4/ As you gauge her heightening excitement and pleasure, intersperse your kisses and caresses with gentle massage and sucking of ears, breasts, and elsewhere. As you do this, so you build up longing, and that all important thing, trust, in you. +(Few women even know what a good lover is – far less ever meet one…) +5/ Enjoy what you are doing, and let it show. Whether you have had her regularly, or it is your first time together, surprise her. Show her you really are a good lover. Do not just go for her ‘LTP’ (lips, tits and pussy) – most males do that – surprise and delight her by treating the rest of her body. Do it with unselfish generosity. It will be a new and very pleasing experience for her, she will respond filled with emotion. +To males, sex and love do not necessarily go hand in hand. Love is one thing: having some pussy is something else. Love to the man is an emotion: ‘Getting his rocks off’ is an instinctive urge. Few females are like that – or will admit even it to themselves. +It is woman’s nature to be wanted. Her desire is to be appreciated. To her, sex is the end-result of a loving relationship, and emotional intimacy. By your above action you have created the necessary trust and bonding. To her, you are no longer a partner just after his oats - you are as one with her, your loving emotions deeply entwined. So much so, that the desire to be sexually intimate with you is no longer propelled mostly by a desire to please you – or get you off her back – it has become a genuine need and desire on her part to both release her own emotions, and to give pleasure to her lover. +(And to think! Here she is almost begging for it, and you haven’t even touched her sexual organ yet…) +Unless you indulge in this foreplay, just ramming your penis inside her and thrusting, invariably makes her at least a little sore. She knows she has no chance of getting off herself, so fakes an orgasm to get it over with. +Once you are adept at the above, it will not be unusual if she has already had one or more orgasms – but she sure as taxes will be hungry for that Dick of yours to slide in and give her the ‘really big one’. +6/ Having gotten her into a highly aroused, and receptive state, it is time to give her ‘love-nest’ some attention: Let your hand just brush her pubic hair (or where it was if she shaves it), and then slide it in between her thighs. Cover her whole vagina with your palm for a moment, hold it, even give it a gentle loving squeeze, then use a finger to go between the lips. (At this point she usually moves to part her legs, so exposing herself fully to facilitate you giving it the full attention it seeks. +Use your fingers to pleasure her external bits. She should be well moist, but you can always wet your fingers, or use your mouth to apply some spittle lubrication. Pay most attention to her clitoris – always bearing in mind it is an extremely delicate and sensitive organ. +By this time you have probably had several ‘hard-ons’ yourself, and your balls may well be aching to shoot their load. If you have gotten her where both you and her want her to be emotionally, and have not already done so – and it is wise to use a condom – this is the time to do so. Most partners are both willing and eager to fit this on for you. +7/ With protection fitted – if desirable – it is now time to get down to the real business of actual intercourse, but – once again - do not rush it. Okay, you both want it, however, her pleasure will be all the more if you continue your ‘teasing’. Start by rubbing your penis head around her inner lips, and clitoris. Slide the shaft up and down her clitoris a few times. +She will be wondering why you are not sticking it in her. By now, she will know you are rock hard and know you could drive it home. Even if she wants it so badly she urges you to ‘give it to her’, hold back from doing so. Tease her some more by just touching her vaginal opening with it, and then use it to rub her clitoris again. This clitoral stimulation is almost too much for her – she wants that Dick driven right home inside her – but, however much she indicates by words or thrusting to get it in her - resist. +By attending to her clitoris, you have her aching for an orgasm. So, tease her more – by feeding just your knob into her. Ease it in and out slowly. However much she wants more, make sure she only gets your knob for starters. Then slowly, as you go in and out, feed her another inch, and then another. Resist giving her more. Keep at least half your length from entering her. +She will become even more aroused. Because you both so want it, but are not getting it, in effect you are both holding back. Keep teasing her until you just can’t take it any more. Her orgasm will have built up to near its peak. Go in deeper a couple of times, it will be too much for her. At this point really drive home. +Dependant on your partner, she may just want you to press and hold hard as her orgasm floods over her. Others want you to keep ramming fast and hard. (It is up to you to do what she wants you to do) – either way, you will have as good an orgasm as you have ever had. More to the point, your partner will also have had a real, and genuine one herself. It may well be her first – it will almost certainly be the best she ever got from a guy. +Believe me, even the most frigid of women when treated with patience and loving care in this way, almost scare themselves by having an orgasm which almost blows their mind. +Now for the bonus of all this attention: If you can get yourself hard again quickly, you have gotten her so aroused you can bang her and bang her again. (Yes – really BANG her. No teasing necessary now, and probably for the first time in her life she will get a series of multiple orgasms. Hold back your own as long as you can and she will continue getting orgasms. Kiss and tongue with her now, and you will have another surprise: Her orgasmic state is reflected in her mouth juices. They become delightfully intoxicating, deliciously sweet, like finest honey. Once you have tasted this with a partner you will want more: It is almost like having a full body orgasmic sensation yourself, and sends shivers right through you. It is almost like a drug – you will want it more and more… +So endeth my first lesson … But there is more: +A few hints on getting and giving good oral sex, and a few more bits on orgasms and things. +This First Part Is For The Ladies: +How to give a good ‘Blowjob”. +Several experts have offered views on the best ‘Blow Job’ Techniques, both on the WEB, and in books. There follows some information from my own experience, and those of others culled from different sources: +“Start with gentle teasing, by licking the man's testicles and the shaft of the penis. Make sure your lips are wet and use lots of saliva lubrication. Blowing on his penis with your hot breath will also give him considerable pleasure. +Get yourself into a position so the he can watch you at work This is a real turn-on for a man. +Use your hands for an extra bit of teasing: run them all over his testicles and genital area. When you start to feel him squirm it is time to start on the next phase: Holding the shaft, take his penis head into your mouth. Purse your lips together to forming a sealing ring around it, and imitate a vacuum tube, by gently sucking on the head of the penis. +Use lots of saliva for lubrication, and concentrate almost totally on the head of the penis – just occasionally taking him all the way inside you mouth. Whilst doing this you can lightly stroke the shaft with one hand as you would if masturbating (wanking) him off. +Need a little variety? Try an ice cube or a mint in you mouth. +If you want to really excite and please him, give him some ‘Deep Throat’: To do this right you need practice in keeping your throat as relaxed as possible. At first, you get a natural gag reflex. Just like a sword swallower, with practice the urge to gag ceases. (Practice with your finger, or a peeled banana.) Unlike a sword, his penis has no sharp edges. +After teasing him until he is near ready to shoot, start using an up and down motion on his head and shaft. Keep your lips pursed tight and proceed to take as much of his full length in and out as you can. And keep one hand fondling his testicles and under his ass. The average American penis is 5.03” it should slide home with no effort. (With practise you can ‘deep –throat’ double that in comfort.) What you have to decide next is: +Do I Spit it out or Swallow? +You will know when you have brought him to the point of no return, and he is about to spurt semen: so it is ‘make your mind up time’. Some guys prefer to drag their Dick out, and do the last bit of wanking themselves. Most love it if the girl will suck them right off, and swallow the cum as it spurts. Many girls prefer to give head this way too, but you decide - If he doesn’t pull first out first! +Blowjobs are also a great foreplay activity: He’ll last longer for you if you give him one prior to a passionate lovemaking session.” _ _ _ _ _ _ +“Dr Mel says: A blowjob is oral sex on a lad. How do you do it? Like this... +Wisely. Only if you want to - not because someone asked nicely - And definitely not because you think you should. +Safely Oral sex can cause infection. Who needs an STI in the mouth? Flavoured condoms are like sweets, which don’t rot your teeth. Fabulous. +Legally Wait till you're 16. • Expertly Practise on your finger first • Slowly There’s no rush. Taking a deep breath and nose-diving your partner till your jaw aches is unnecessary. Relax. • Thoughtfully Ask him what feels good. Talk with your mouth full if you have to. +Gently Avoid teeth. Think lollipop, not stick of rock. And you don’t need to go too deep - gagging is no fun. +Carefully The most sensitive bit of the penis is the top, particularly on the underside. +Experimentally As the saying goes: 'Suck it and see'.” _ _ _ _ _ _ _ +“Pleasure Areas” Skill is required to suck your man's cock and provide him with the highest degree of pleasure possible. While his erect penis points toward the ceiling, cup his balls in one hand and gently, using only your tongue, lick softly, but carefully along the entire underside of his erect organ. As you suck along the underbelly you will learn those areas that give him the greatest pleasure when your tongue is touching them. Unless he is made of stone, your partner will provide you with vivid clues as to which areas are most pleasurable. As you discover these areas of enhanced pleasure concentrate on them. +For most men the most sensitive area will be the point where the ring (or corona) of the head and the foreskin are attached. Or were attached prior to his circumcision. By continued licking and tapping along this area with your tongue, you are going to bring forth a geyser. If you are not skilled and you want to please him in a hurry I suggest that you get him off in this manner in order to become familiar at first hand with the nature and delight of his climax.” +Climax As he is getting ready for climax, you will note changes in his penis. These signs will be the same every time he climaxes so you can prepare for his cum properly. The head of the cock may swell somewhat larger then it is during normal erection. He may thrust his hips forward hurtling out his cock with his cum. Usually, just prior to the cum, a clear drop or two of fluid will appear at the tiny, lovely lips at the tip of the cock. When you see this or feel the opening at the meateus through his condom you know that the ‘moment of truth’ is at hand. Launch the torpedoes, full cum ahead! +Techniques +The best position is by kneeling between his legs and approaching his cock from the bottom rather than from the side or the top. Try the various positions I describe later and see what works best for you and your partner. +Mouth Circle Place his stiff cock inside your mouth but do not tighten your lips around the shaft. With your head begin a circle motion. The cock will slide to different places in your mouth as you continue the circle motion. Watch your teeth on this one. A kneeling position will suffice but it is also effective when your partner is on his back and your head is directly over his cock. The circle should be executed in both clockwise and counter clockwise motions in a slow purposeful manner. When the technique is performed correctly, it means many hours of unadulterated pleasure. +Lollipop With your man sitting in an elevated position and you on your knees in front of him lift his hard cock to reveal his balls. With your tongue, find the underside of his balls. Now, while resting his balls on your wet tongue lick in an upward motion, to the very tip of his cock. It is permissible to use your hands in this technique. It is better to do this technique several times in a row - like licking a lollipop. +Cocksucking Slide his cock into your mouth but not deeply by sliding your moistened tongue lovingly over the head until your lips close around the shaft at the point just behind the corona. Encase the shaft of his penis with your hand. Now you have several options. Try twisting your head from side to side making sure your moist lips stay in contact with the coronal ridge. While doing this gently move your hand up and down the shaft. +When he climaxes he may want to push your head further down the shaft of his penis. He wants to envelop you with his cock. As you are learning his climax you will miss the fine points if you deep throat at this time. Instead gently suck around the corona as he climaxes so that you can intensify his pleasure and increase the force of his orgasm. As you gain more experience you will be able to tell exactly when his climax is approaching and you will be ready for that initial spurt. +Refine this basic technique and heighten his orgasm by placing your thumb at the very base of the penis in such a way as to block the tube through which the cum spurts. The semen cannot escape even though he is spasming and going through the reflex action of ejaculating semen. If at the same time you suck vigorously on the head of his cock, you can delay his cum for several long moments. When you finally allow the cum to spurt, it will last much longer and be just as intense as a result. Even though you delay the cum for only a few short moments you will be surprised by the intensity of his cum. +His Balls Here are two objects that can enhance your partner's feelings more than any other. Begin by gently licking his balls with your tongue and caress his cock with your hand while you are bathing his balls with your tongue. Thoroughly wet them with your tongue before taking them into your mouth. By giving the balls a complete tongue bath prior to taking them into your mouth, you will have pressed these hairs down along the surface of the sac and will not inadvertently cause pain by pulling on them. Try stroking his perineum, the area between his balls and anus. Some men like to have their prostate massaged during oral sex as well. This is accomplished by placing your finger up his ass. +Quickie Blow Job Place your lips around the head of your partner's cock and twirl your lips wetly and gently around the coronal ridge at the back of the head of his penis. This does not require any great cocksucking skill and it works simply because this is the area that is most sensitive on his cock. It is not necessary to be a skilful cocksucker. All that is necessary is for you to find the most sensitive area around the coronal area. By sucking on this area of his cock continuously, you will produce a quick powerful cum. It is not necessary to bob your head up and down on his cock to get him off. +Sixty Nine 69 is not always the perfect way to provide your partner oral satisfaction. Inadvertently, one of you will ""let up"" your end in order to experience the subtle pleasures the other partner is giving you. Actually, I believe that sixty-nine is the ultimate pleasure. Done correctly and unselfishly when both of you are completely in tune with each others’ innermost desires, the sixty nine is the ultimate. +Deep Throat One of the first things you encountered when you first started to suck cock was a gag reflex. Most men seem to want to force their cocks down your throat as far as they can get it. Particularly at the moment when they cum! The biggest obstacle to taking all of his cock down your throat is the fact that there is a bend of almost ninety degrees behind your tongue leading down into your throat. So, the first thing to do is get the cock past that angle. Get past the angle of the dangle! +In order to practice this, get in a position where you can turn your head in such a way that your mouth and throat lie almost in a straight line. The best position to accomplish this is to lie on a bed so that your head is near the edge with your body sprawled across the bed so that your head is tipped sharply back. This position will put your mouth and throat nearly in a line and will allow your partner to approach you in such a way that insertion of his cock can be made so deeply that his pubic hair presses against your lips. +The natural tendency of the body is to gag when a deeply thrusting cock is being forced down your throat. You can overcome this tendency by completely relaxing your throat at moment the insertion is made. It is equally important that you maintain this relaxation during the entire deep throating. Let him put his cock down your throat and hold it still while you find the most comfortable way to proceed. Because of your position, you will not be able to move or to offer him any greater stimulation than simply keeping your mouth tightly closed around his throbbing cock. If you are able, try to stimulate his underbelly with your tongue, do it! +You will only be able to relax and take his cock in this way if you completely trust him. Your partner is in full control. He must initiate and maintain all the motion. Now he begins an in and out movement that is just like fucking. He should start slowly, especially if this is a completely new experience for the two of you. His only other requirement during this exercise is to keep the motion in the same direction throughout this oral exercise, as there is simply no leeway for him to vary the motion from side to side. +Cuming A word of caution: Don't let him get carried away at the moment he starts to cum. At that spectacular moment, he will be able, for the first time, to thrust his cock all the way inside your oral cavity and that is the most important lesson of this exercise! +Because of your position in bed you will not be faced with the problem of swallowing his cum. And this is not just because he has a condom on his dick. The reason is because he has gotten his cock BEYOND your gag reflex! Without the rubber, his cum would shoot directly into your stomach! If both you and your partner understand what it is that you are trying to do as well as the possible problems that may ""cum"" up along the way no harm or discomfort will happen to either of you. +It is possible that not everyone will learn the ""deep throat"" technique but this inability does not make you any less a cocksucker. You must allow your throat to relax completely while your partner is thrusting his cock this deeply down your throat. To do this long enough for your partner to completely get it off is very difficult and may require practice beyond this day. It may be that you will be able to take your partner completely down your throat, but you will not be able to maintain proper relaxation of your throat until he shoots his load. +Hopefully your partner will understand that this is not a rejection of him or of what he is offering you, and it is my sincere desire that you not stop here and think that you will never master the ""deep throat"" technique. Continue to practice this lesson. your practice will allow you to take his cock deeper into your throat each time and for longer periods of time. +The Butterfly Flutter The best position for this very sensuous cocksucking movement is kneeling over him. If he is on his back kneel between his legs. Or kneel in front of him while he stands. Create the basic vacuum pressure on his cock, but only enough pressure to pull the cock into your mouth ever so slightly. With your lips firmly wrapped around his big swollen cock head and shaft, gently flick the tip of his cock with your tongue. Open around the cock at a depth so that you can touch the tip of his cock with the tip of your tongue. With your lips around the cock make an up and down movement with your tongue. Flutter your tongue up and down the tip of his cock. After several minutes of this continue with the basic vacuum suck. +The Travelling Figure Eight With your lips firmly wrapped around his cock shaft try very slowly to reach the base of his shaft or as close to it as you are comfortable. With your nose trace a figure eight as if the figure eight were lying on its, side. Your figure eight motion should be three to four inches long. Slowly travel up the shaft of his cock to the head, doing the figure eight motion. Keep doing this motion and let your lips firmly travel up and down the cock shaft. Do this for as long as you are comfortable with it. When you get tired of the movement slow down and return to the basic vacuum suck. +Go down on the cock shaft as far as you are comfortable. All the while your lips should be firmly wrapped around the shaft. Open your mouth as wide as you can and suck in as much air as your lungs will hold. While sucking in air, let your open mouth travel up to the cock head. Your up stroke motion should end at the head of his cock just as your lungs fill with air. Now with your mouth still open let the air in your lungs out slowly through your mouth as your opened mouth travels back down the cock shaft. This technique cools the cock on the up stoke and warms the cock with your hot breath on the down stroke. Do this movement as long as you like then return to the basic vacuum suck method. This is great with edible body oils that heat up with your breath. If you feel he is about to cum stop what you are doing and let him cool off for a few minutes. +The Circle Place his stiff cock inside your mouth but do not tighten your lips around the shaft. With your head begin a circle motion. The cock will slide to different places in your mouth as you continue the circle motion. Watch your teeth on this one. A kneeling position will suffice but it is also effective when he is on his back and your head is directly over his cock. The circle should be executed in both clockwise and counter clockwise motions in a slow purposeful manner.” +This Part Is For The Men: +“Licking & Pussy Eating: +Cunnilingus is the act of using the mouth to stimulate the female genitals. This can include sucking or licking the outer and inner areas of the vagina, and most often involves direct stimulation of the clitoris. Some women find cunnilingus to be the most satisfying sexual act. I know this sounds boring but that's the best description I could find. Now what is the mystery of cunnilingus ( better known as licking and pussy eating)!? The fact that almost 70% of women are unable to reach orgasm (vaginal that is) makes them turn to stimulation of their clitoris; which is the core thing of cunnilingus. A great number of women report that oral sex is the only way they can achieve orgasm. That is where you fit in. +First, you should know that many women are shy about their body. Work on her psychologically. Tell her she is beautiful. Complement her on her look and her great boy. Make her trust you and feel comfortable with you in bed. It is much important for a good lick as it is for good fuck so make her feel wanted. After the first shy remarks, be aggressive a little. Complement the breasts and ties. Tell her how much you are looking forward to tasting her sweet juices. Sweet-talking is just to get her in the mood. Remember, each woman is different. Some techniques work better one kind of woman than another. +Before you go off, meet what you'll be working on - Your partners private parts: +Vulva - or the pussy is folded around itself. Sexual excitement will open it like a pretty pink flower. And how to open it? Lightly use the tip of your tongue. Slide it from the top of the slit to the bottom. Very slowly, repeat this until you see the unfolding. This is caused by the woman's sexual excitement engorging her pussy with blood. The labia majora are, pussy lips. The pussy lips are comprised of erectile tissue - Meaning that they fill with blood as sexual excitement builds. The outer more prominent lips are the labia majora. The inner pussy lips are called the labia minora. Both are extremely sensitive to the tongue and lips. +Labia Majora and Labia Minora are the keys that unlock the terrifically sensitive clitoris. Pussy juice or vaginal fluid is comprised of glucose and fructose. In other words, sugar. (If you ever run into a pussy that smells like fish. You can be sure that the woman has an infection and should see a gynaecologist.) Pussy Juice has a slight syrupy consistency, which makes it an excellent natural lubricator. The clitoris or clit, is the most sensitive place on the woman's body. It swells with blood as it is aroused. It is interesting to note that the clit and a head of a penis are made of the same tissue. The clit is the zone we're looking for. +When you start to touch and caress her, don't go down straight to her pussy, start slowly to caress her other erogenous zones of her body, and kiss her gently. Have in view her face (lips, eyes, neck, etc.), breasts, belly, and only after that her legs. Especially, take your time with nipples since nipples have a direct neural connection to the clit. This all will relax her and prepare for upcoming pleasure. Remember and take your time with everything you do. +You must understand the sensitive nature of a pussy. You cannot be TOO soft when you eat pussy. You cannot hurry it along to orgasm. (Make her cum) You must give the woman time, lots of time, for her sexual excitement to build. The labia fold must be parted by gentle touches of the tongue in oral sex. Everything you need is there: sensitive pussy lips that - along with excitement - gives you a clear opening to the clit. Use your tongue gently - moving pussy juice, the perfect lubricant, to each, and every part of her pussy. Gentle moves will give you the pleasure you both seek. Just do not rush with it, and what ever you do, do not use your teeth. Take your time and examine your partner while you are doing it. Her face will let you know if you are on the right track. +Positions Position of giving a pussy licking depends on likes and dislikes of your partner and of course on your durability. You do not wish to be in a position where you can't keep your body too long. There are few simple and most common ones, you should try: +A lot of sub variations on laying flat position, as you can situate yourself many different ways to give cunnilingus to a woman who is laying on her back. +1/ A great beginner position is to have her laying flat on her back with her legs completely spread. Approach from between her feet and lay on your stomach between her legs with your lips at clit level. Another great one is to have her lay on the edge of the bed with her legs up in the air. Approach from the floor and as you put your head between her legs, let them drape over your shoulders. +2/ With her standing facing you, kneel directly in front of her and position your lips at clit level. This is a great position to use your hands and fingers as they are freed up to explore. +3/. Chairs and couches provide can be stimulating accessories that allow for some unique positions. Try having her sit in a chair with arms, draping her legs over the arms. Approach from below. +4/. The doggy style - with her on all 4s waiting for you to explore. +5/ An all time favourite is the 69 position, with the great benefit that you receive as well as give pleasure. +You may certainly think of a few more positions, but it all really is a combination of the ones already mentioned. Remember the key thing is for the position to be comfortable for the both of you. +THE BEST WAY TO EAT PUSSY When a woman finds a man who gives good head, (cunnilingus) she has found a treasure she is not going to let go of too quickly. There is nothing that makes a woman more unique than her pussy: They come in all different sizes, colours and shapes; some are tucked inside and some have thick luscious lips. +One side of her clitoris is normally more sensitive than the other. If she doesn't know which side - experiment. When a woman becomes aroused, the clitoris becomes engorged. The more engorged, the more it craves to be touched. +Take A Look Be sure to wet your finger(s) before you touch her clit because it does not have its own juices and it is extremely sensitive. Your finger will stick to it it's dry - and that hurts. Whenever you touch her pussy, make sure your finger is wet. You can lick it or moisten it with juices from inside her. Before she becomes aroused, her clit is usually too delicate to be handled. +Gently peel apart the labia minora, her small lips, and look at her inner lips, even lick them if you want to. With the tip of your wet finger, slide it upward until you reach her little pink bud of flesh in the front. If you are in front of her, you can find it where all the whorls and folds of skin come together at the top of her vagina. The clitoris is usually about the size of the tip of your little finger. This is the most erotically sensitive spot in a woman's body. Its sole purpose is receiving pleasure. +Tease Her Women love to be teased. The inner part of her thigh is her most tender spot. Lick it, kiss it, make designs on it with the tip of your tongue. Come close to her pussy, and then float away. Make her anticipate it. Now lick the crease where her leg joins her pussy. Nuzzle your face into her bush. Brush your lips over her slit without pressing down on it to further excite her. +When she is bucking up, and straining to get more of you closer to her, put your lips right on top of her slit. Kiss her gently, then harder. Now use your tongue to separate her pussy lips and when she opens up, run your tongue up and down between the layers of pussy flesh. +Tongue Fucking Gently, spread her legs more with your hands. Tongue-fuck her. This feels divine. It also teases the hell out of her because by now she wants some attention given to her clit. Quickly push your tongue in and out of her wet pussy, alternate between quick and slow thrusts. Do not forget to run your tongue up the full length of her pussy lips just nipping at her clitoral bud. Never use your teeth. +Clitoral Orgasm See if her clit has become hard enough to peek out of its hood. If so, lick it. If you can't see it, it might still be waiting for you underneath. Bring your tongue up to the top of her slit and feel for her clit. If you can't feel the tiny bud, you can make it rise by licking the skin that covers it. Lick hard now and press into her skin. Gently pull her pussy lips away and flick your tongue quickly against her clit, hood covered or not. Her legs should shudder. When you sense she's getting up there, toward orgasm, make your lips into an O and take the clit into your mouth. Start to suck gently and watch her face for her reaction. If she can handle it, begin to suck harder. If she’s into it, suck even harder. +Go with her. Move with her as she lifts her pelvis into the air with the tension of her rising orgasm. Don't fight her. Hang on, and keep your hot mouth on her clit. Don't let go. That's what she'll be saying too: ""Don't stop. Don't ever stop!"" There is a reason for that, most men stop too soon. +Finger Fucking & Orgasm You can finger-fuck her while she's enjoying your clit-licking talents. Before, during or after, she'll like it all. In addition to the erogenous zones surrounding her clit, a woman has another extremely sensitive area at the roof of her vagina. This is what you rub up against when you are fucking her: The infamous G-Spot. Your fingers will have to do the fucking. Take two fingers. (One is too skinny, and three is too wide), and can't get deep enough into her pussy. Make sure they are wet. Slide them inside, slowly at first, then a little faster. Fuck her with rhythm. Speed up when she does. Listen to her breathing. She'll let you know what to do. If you're sucking her clit and finger-fucking her at the same time, you're giving her far more stimulation than you would with your cock alone. You can count on it that she's getting high on this. +When she starts to have an orgasm don't let go of that clit. Hang in there. When she starts to come down from the first orgasm, press your tongue along the underside of the clit, leaving your lips covering the top. Move your tongue in and out of her cunt. If your fingers are inside, move them a little too, gently though - things are extremely sensitive just now. If you play your cards right, you'll get her some multiple orgasms this way. A woman can stay excited for a full hour after she's had an orgasm. +Don't leave her alone just yet. Talk to her, stroke her body, caress her breasts, and keep making love to her quietly until she's come all the way down. ---------- +1\. Start slow +Don't be in a hurry to attack her clit. Kiss, nibble, and suck on her mouth, her breasts, her thighs. Like any sex act, she needs to be relaxed and ready before you start getting serious. Even when you do make it down there, kiss and lick and suck on all of her, not just her clit. Her labia need attention too, and many women love having a tongue pushed up inside of them. +2\. Find the clit +You need to find the spot near or on her clit that is ""just right"" for her, the area that, with every flick of your tongue, sends surges of pleasure through her body. No, we're not going to draw you a picture, or describe a roadmap. The best way to find it is simply to ask her. Each woman is slightly different in how she wants to be stimulated, so tell her to give you guidance as your explore her nether regions. +(Note: some women find direct clitoral stimulation too intense. You need to communicate to find the way to stimulate her best.) +3\. Relax your tongue +Many men tense up their tongues and flick the tip furiously against her clit. That is all wrong. A relaxed tongue will do the trick better, using the broad flat part, whether you flick it or just bob your head. +4\. Use your hands +Your hands are free, so use them! A little finger-fucking is a great complement to clitoral stimulation. You can also caress her labia, lubed up with her own juices, of course. If you're an adventuresome couple, even try putting a finger or two up her ass. However, be careful not to put them anywhere near the vagina after that. A pair of latex gloves and water-based lube will definitely come in handy. +5\. Get down to business +Once you've gotten her excited and figured out her hot spots, it's time to get down to business. Flick your tongue with a steady rhythm over her clit. Don't stop, and don't change the rhythm. That's the key to making her come: patience and a steady stroke. Don't vary things too much, and for goodness sake, don't ask her ""did you come yet?"" Let her fall naturally into an intense, mind- blowing orgasm +What woman doesn’t love to be expertly eaten out? Oral sex - done right - can take your partner to new heights of pleasure, but done wrong it can be an ordeal for both of you. Munching rug should be no great mystery. These tips will introduce you to some of the basics of cunnilingus and help you go down like a pro. Don’t forget to come up for air! +1\. What’s that smell? +For many people, fear of a funky odour or taste is the chief barrier to going down on a woman. All women do have a distinctive scent and flavour, and for some would-be cunning linguists, these may be an acquired taste. However, if your partner is clean and in good health, her taste and smell should not be unpleasant, or overwhelming. If you have concerns about her hygiene, the most tactful approach is to suggest a shared shower or bath before sex. If after a good soaping, her pussy still smells like something crawled up it and died, or she has unusual discharge, she probably has an infection and should see a doctor. +2\. Work your way up. +Take your time when you start to eat pussy. Get her warmed up with some basic foreplay—kissing, fondling, etc. It is better to go down on a wet pussy than a dry one. Once she is aroused, make your descent: Try kissing and tonguing her ankle or the sole of her foot. Then kiss and lick your way slowly up the inside of her leg (the back of the knee is a good erogenous zone, too). Tease her a bit more by kissing and tonguing her inner thighs. Blow some air lightly over her pussy. She’ll go nuts. +3\. Get acquainted. +Once your face is up in her crotch, don’t dive straight for her panic button. Explore the whole area with your mouth. Gently probe with your tongue and locate her vagina and clit. Suck on her labia. Get your whole face messy. +4\. Get busy. +Now you want to go to work on her clit. The key is to use your tongue and lips to suck and massage it gently. Do not poke at it or press too hard. Go in circles, go up and down, flick back and forth lightly. There is no real “right” way to go down on a woman; just make it up as you go along and pay attention to what works. Vary your speed and pressure and see what she responds to. When you hit the right groove, you’ll probably know it, because she’ll grab the back of your head and clamp her thighs around your ears like a vice. But to be on the safe side, ask her beforehand to let you know what she likes. Once you hit her hot spot, there’s no need to rush; just keep her engine revving. Feel free to explore some other techniques or positions before you take her over the top. +The ABCs. +This is perhaps the most common tip when you eat pussy: use your tongue to trace the letters of the alphabet on her clit. Some people swear by it. Personally, I don’t recommend it. I don’t think it’s a good technique. Also, it’s too much of a distraction, and if she catches you humming the Alphabet Song under your breath, you’re busted. You should be paying attention to her, not what comes after Q. +6\. Use your hands. +You can create some wild sensations for her by stimulating her clit with both your fingers and your tongue simultaneously. Also, most women enjoy a finger or two in their cunt while being eaten out. Insert your fingers with your palm up, crook them slightly, and stroke toward you in a “come hither” motion to hit her G-spot. A finger up the ass will also drive her over the edge if she’s into anal play. (As always, to avoid infection, if you put something in her ass, make sure you do not put it in her pussy afterward.) +7\. Stick out your tongue. +You can also use your tongue to penetrate her—just make it rigid and plunge in. You can then tongue-fuck her by moving your tongue in and out, or by keeping it stationary and bobbing your whole head. For bonus points, try stimulating her clit with your nose while your tongue is inside her. +8\. Let her ride. +Put a pillow or two under your neck and let her sit on your face. This gives you a nice view of her tits and gives her a degree of control over pressure and position. Let her grind her juices all over your mug. _ _ _ _ _ +The Two Types Of Orgasm +It is now known women can experience two kinds of orgasm. But they are not clitoral vs. vaginal as some have reported. +1.The most common (some times called clitoral) also involves the vagina since the clitoral stimulation also produces contractions of the pubococcygeal (PC) muscle supporting the pelvic floor, which is where ""vaginal"" contractions are felt. +2\. G-spot and Uterine. G-spot stimulation results in orgasmic contractions around the uterus, which is several inches above the pelvic floor. +Later research has shown that women who can orgasm both ways have even deeper, more powerful blended orgasm, resulting from contractions in both areas at once. +One woman described the difference this way: "" I have two DISTINCTLY different types of orgasm. The G-Spot orgasm tends to result in my vaginal walls contracting and fluid being expelled. The clitoral orgasm can either have fluid expelled or be ""dry"" but both result in my uterus contracting, not my vaginal walls. And both types can either be whole body or localized. I state all this because it seems as if some posters are implying there is only one kind of orgasm and that it always involves uterine contractions and I'm here to tell you that that is not always true. So good luck in experiencing ALL the kinds of orgasms there are for women!"" +Location Of G-spot +The G-spot lies directly behind the pubic bone within the front wall of the vagina. It is usually located about half way between the back of the pubic bone and the front of the cervix, along the course of the urethra and near the neck of the bladder, where it connects with the urethra. The size and exact location vary. Imagine a small clock inside the vagina with 12 o'clock pointed towards the navel. The majority of women will have the G-spot located between 11 and 1 o'clock a few inches inside the vagina. + Unlike the clitoris, which protrudes from the surrounding tissue, it lies deep within the vaginal wall, and a firm pressure is often needed to contact the G spot in its unstimulated state. Usually it is a lima- bean sized, spongy area, which responds to stimulation by hardening and swelling as blood rushes to it. _ _ _ _ _ _ +One Guys’s Experience With Women (Copied from WWWeb - writer unknown.) “First of all, let me define a G-spot orgasm the best I can from women that have discussed it with me as well as my readings and research. G-spot simulation usually results in an initial feeling of needing to urinate, which may last a few seconds to 30 sec. This is because the spot is so close to the bladder. +Many women stop the stimulation fearing the urination feeling. BUT, I assure you the feeling will change to a highly sexual pleasurable feeling. The resulting orgasm is much deeper within the body than a clitoral orgasm. +From women who have shared their experiences with me, there are two common descriptions: either a very, very powerful explosion that keeps on going and going (one woman who is very highly orgasmic told me it was the best she ever had) or less intense but an experience of deep, rolling orgasms. +In one case, after about an hour of my massaging her G-spot, as my hand was getting tired, I moved away to her clit and she wanted me back on her G-spot, saying that while clitoral stimulation would result in a one time big bang, the ongoing smaller, almost continuous G-spot orgasms were more enjoyable."" - - - - - - - +Techniques For Stimulating the G-Spot +Lie back with your knees pressed up to your chest. In this position, your vaginal depth will shorten and even small fingers should be able to reach the G-spot. With a partner, lie on your side with one leg drawn up to your chest as your partner enters you from the rear. He should be able to hit the spot. +Insert fingers and bend them gently up, around and behind the pubic bone. Beyond the rather rough-surfaced tissue immediately behind her pubic bone, your fingertips will encounter a very soft, smooth area. Go very slowly and let her tell you what she feels as you explore the smooth area, which will feel to you like the inside of a very slippery mitten. When you straighten your fingers and reach further inside, you'll encounter a hard, rubbery structure that feels like an erect nipple pointing south. This is her cervix. The G-spot is somewhere just his side of the cervix, about an inch beyond the mitten, in the flesh immediately in front of the vagina. +Imagine you are holding a tennis ball on those two of three inserted fingers. An area about the size of a grape in the centre of the tennis ball is what you're trying to reach. It can be anywhere along that two-or-three inch long area between the pubic bone and the cervix. Explore slowly, allowing for feedback front he woman - let her guide your fingers with her words if she can feel the stimulation. The G-spot responds to pressure rather than to touch. Gentle stroking is not likely to find it. It is more like massaging a pea under a mattress - one has to compress the flesh to find it. +When you reach in from the front with the woman on her back, the heel of your hand is over her clitoris while your fingers hook around her pubic bone. Pull upwards, as if you are trying to lift her off the bed. Do this with the same sort of rhythm you would use fucking, and keep your fingers hooked, so they press deep into the tissue. Once you know where it is you can try using your penis on it, but for good G-spot orgasm, she may prefer your hand. In face-to- face intercourse, the penis may not stimulate the spot enough to do any good, although some positions, such as the one where the women draws her knees close to her chest, may increase the changes for a G-spot orgasm. +How To Hang On To Any Woman: +GIVE HER ALL SHE CAN TAKE. +Hey! Everyone knows that NO guy can give a randy woman all she can take, don’t we? Well don’t you believe it: You can give her orgasms until she gasps she can’t take any more, and collapses from exhaustion. (I’ve give females more orgasms in a half hour this way than the ever got in total in a couple of years before – and it wasn’t for their want of trying! I call it the: +“CHINESE CRACKERS” +I expect you have all seen those ‘Chinese Cracker’ fireworks, or ‘Jumping Jacks’. You light the fuse, toss it well clear – and wait for the series of explosions, as it jumps around in wild random. +Now imagine the same thing happening inside your woman: A series of orgasmic explosions erupting inside her from all directions – one after the other in rapid succession – and you keep them going until even the most abandoned nymphomaniac has to scream ‘Enough, enough.” +Before you can perform this, you must be well practiced in the ‘Balloon technique’ of bringing her to orgasm. (Make sure you understand and can carry out that task detailed at the beginning of this book.) +As mentioned earlier, once a guy has ejaculated a couple of times in quick succession, he is pretty-well shagged out for a while. If you have brought a woman to attaining a good orgasm she remains highly sexually aroused, and can (and usually wants) more for at least a half hour – usually longer. +If you are proficient in bringing her to orgasm, you can move on to giving her multi orgasmic explosions. The key to this is correct stimulation of her G-Spot. Forget using your penis for this – it just isn’t enough: you need a couple of industrious fingers inside her. It only works if she has 100% trust in you, and abandons her body to you. The technique is much as the one outlined above. Again, the secret is ‘Hold back, hold back, hold back’. +So, you just brought her to orgasm, have relaxed a minute and covered her with kisses. Now drop your hand down and cover the whole of her sex organ, hold it gently but firmly. In her still high state of sexual arousal, she will desire much more stimulation Despite knowing from past sexual experiences that there is little chance of it, she will badly desire to have penis, fingers, or tongue inside her again. Surprise her: Make a movement with one or other of them to part her lips and touch her entrance – but don’t go in. Don’t let her force you in either, tease her. Move from there to her clit, and alternate slowly between the two. +She may physically try to get you in her, or cry out begging you to fuck her or whatever. Hold back, just tease. By doing this, you are building her desire, heightening her expectation, frustrating her to distraction. Keep this up until it is obvious she is at the limit of her frustration and expectation – then slip one finger part way in and pause. That simple movement should send her sexually wild. Pause a couple of seconds to let her go beyond the point of her endurance, then head your finger straight for her G-Spot +(A reminder here: The G-Spot is situated approximately two inches inside her vagina, on the inner wall, and at the roof or top of it. If you slide your finger in and hook it upwards you should be right on it.) +As you hit the G-Spot, use your other hand, mouth, tongue, lips to stimulate the rest of her body. (Deep kissing her neck is usually effective whilst massaging her breasts,) Use the pad of your finger to press in gently and rub the spot. It should feel moist and silky smooth. Slip another finger in to join the first. Don’t press too hard. Concentrate on the G-Spot, Don’t start fingerfucking her, but slid your fingers in and out without letting them leave that spot. Gaze into her eyes; vary your movement and pressure. See what is working for her and what is not. Vary the pressure of individual fingers. Move faster or slower, pause at different points to apply a little more pressure. +Her inner muscles will begin expanding and contracting in uncontrollable spasms. These movements indicate an impending ejaculation of vaginal fluid. Some females ‘cum’ or ejaculate very little during orgasm, others actually produce a fair amount of vaginal fluid as the orgasm. At this point, her whole internal and external pubics will feel like they are ‘on fire’. There is NO WAY she can hold back an orgasm now. +She will be breathing heavily. At this point, most females become ‘noisy’. Some scream, or shout obscenities. Her muscles will grip you hard. Grip her hard right back. +You will know the exact moment she is about to shoot, as her muscles tighten so hard they almost force your fingers out. Instantly use your mouth, hand, penis to do whatever you know turns her on. (Kissing, sucking, even biting the neck or breasts, nipples – whatever you know they like), will send them way beyond any normal orgasmic sensational peek they have previously experienced. She will become super-wet. If she has previously been given to ejaculating during orgasm, this time she will do it with such explosive force she could literally shoot across the room. +You have achieved what she wanted – what you wanted – so time to relax eh! NOT ON YOUR LIFE. Continue your stimulation, always varying the movement, pressure, and continue using your other hand, penis, mouth to stimulate her. You can continue giving her one after anther super explosive orgasms.

The events described here are imaginary; the settings and characters are fictitious and are not intended to represent specific places or living persons. +* +Flash fiction and particularly the variant 50-word fiction that I write requires a plot even though there are very few words available. This is a very short introduction to how to produce a minimal plot. +A simple plot for a short story is an introduction followed by some development and a conclusion. Even that may be too much for flash fiction. There is little space for development in 50 or 100 words. +THE BEGINNING: +The first sentence must establish the setting or premise of the story. Here are some examples: +A. ""The bride swung her unaccustomed wide skirts."" +In seven words that sentence sets a scene. The bride, so a wedding is in the story, is dressed in her bridal gown. ""Unaccustomed"" tells the reader that she doesn't normally wear large skirts so the story isn't set in the 19th century. +B. ""The courier dismounted from his steaming horse."" +Those seven words give some clues. Couriers don't arrive on horseback in the 21st Century so the story is set in the past. If the horse is steaming it has been ridden hard so there is some real urgency in the message the courier is bringing. +THE ENDING: +Flash fiction requires a neat ending preferably with a twist that is unexpected. With such a short story there is little scope for development between the beginning and end so the next part of the plot that must be considered is how the story will end. +The end of any flash fiction story must relate closely to the beginning and be relevant even if unlikely. Before the short story can be started the author must have a good idea of the ending even if the exact words are not written yet. In some respects thinking of a suitable ending is more important than any other part of the plot. +Taking the example A above, it could end with some of the bride's words: +""I'm wearing the trousers in this marriage."" +That contrasts the skirts of the first sentence with ""trousers"" in the ending. That ending is suitable for the beginning but others are possible. The bride may hate being dressed so formally. Or, for the first time in her life, she might appreciate being dressed for an occasion. The groom might not turn up for the wedding. There are a number of possible endings given the start of story A. The art of plotting flash fiction is to think of several endings that could suit the beginning and then choose the one that has most impact. +From the start of B, some possibilities are that the courier has come to the wrong place, is delivering the message to the wrong person or the courier has been forestalled by an earlier message so the speed was unnecessary. +THE DEVELOPMENT: +Development has to be very limited in flash fiction. There just isn't room for it. If the plot has a strong beginning and ending the development is restricted to how the author gets from one to the other. It can even be eliminated. +In story A if we start with the bride and end with her statement we could just expand on the setting until the last few words. The story might go like this: +** +The bride swung her unaccustomed wide skirts. In front of the long mirror she tossed back her veil, staring intently at her reflection. Her eyes glittered and she jutted her chin. ""Whatever he may think,"" she said aloud, ""I'm wearing the trousers in this marriage."" +** +Is there really any development? That version just continues the setting until her statement concludes the story. It isn't yet a fifty-word story. If it were to be a 100-word story there might be room for him to respond and him to react. That would be development, but in 50-words such complexity is difficult. +It is possible to include development. +** +The bride swung her unaccustomed wide skirts. The flying hem caught her father-in-law's prized Chinese vase sending it to shatter on the floor. The bride burst into tears. ""Never mind,"" her new mother-in-law said, hugging her, ""I've wanted to lose that thing for years."" +** +The implication is that the bride and her mother-in-law have started a relationship. +CONCLUSION +Flash fiction requires a strong ending. There is no room for excess words or unnecessary sentences. If you have thought of the beginning and the end then getting from one to the other is about all you can do in the space available. If you think of the ending first you are well on the way to a plot for a flash fiction story." +468,How to Pop a Cherry,Middleagepoet,How To,2009-12-13,2009-12-13,2022-01-04 08:33:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pop-a-cherry,"And other myths surrounding the ""hymen"" or vaginal corona.","['Female Virginity', 'Hymen', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex Education', 'Sex How-To']",4.44,"In writing erotic fiction it is important for writers to understand the physiology of the sexual acts they are describing. Nothing will undermine a story quicker than a sex scene that in simply outright impossible. A simple misconception about a certain facet of sex or sexuality can easily lead to errors in a narration and especially here at Literotica, you can count on the readers to find, expose and flaunt even the slightest mistake. One area in erotic writing where stories are easily undermined by misconceptions and myths involve Literotica's First Time category. +You've seen portrayals of the deflowering of a female virgin where the bloody sheets are proudly displayed as a proof of a bride's innocence or at least her virginity. Accounts of large penises tearing the hymen in painful, powerful thrusts accompanied by heavy bleeding are simply untrue. Although we know the term ""popping a cherry"" and have made jokes about friends named Buster Hymen, these are based upon the incorrect notion that a woman's vagina is covered, either entirely or partially by a membrane that ruptured upon penetration during their first sexual encounter. This is simply untrue. +The established term ""hymen"" actually describes what is called the vaginal corona which is located just one to two centimeters inside the vaginal opening. This corona is made up of folds of mucous tissue which may, depending upon the woman, be tightly or loosely folded. It is slightly pink, almost transparent and some have described its appearance to be similar to the petals of a rose or other flower. It may be carnation shaped, or shaped like a jigsaw puzzle or half moon, again, depending upon the woman. In most cases the vaginal corona is elastic and stretchy. +In some very rare cases these folds may cover the entire vaginal opening in which case the woman will need to see a gynecologist to open the corona to release menstrual blood and allow insertion of a tampon or have penetrative sex. Older, post menopausal women who haven't given birth vaginally and don't have regular penetrative sex may have the corona close up again, giving them some difficulty having sex. They may need to have their gynecologist open their vaginal corona to have an active sex life again. +Since the vaginal corona isn't the brittle membrane that is ruptured or torn during the woman's first penetrative sexual encounter often the narrative accounts of painful sex for the woman are incorrect. In fact, the experience of inserting a tampon, masturbation or having penetrative sex for the first time may or may not be painful, depending upon the woman. Some women report no pain, while others, with thicker vaginal corona report having some pain. The mucus folds will stretch and sometimes there may be some minor ruptures in the folds causing some pain, along with a little bleeding. +While some women experience bleeding, the vast majority of women don't bleed. It is reported that few women bleed because the vaginal corona is tight, it is more often caused by other reasons. If the woman is not fully aroused, or is too nervous to be fully lubricated (wet) ruptures may occur in the vaginal corona with subsequent bleeding, but this has nothing to do with how many times the woman has had sex. +As far as virginity is concerned, just as you cannot look at a man's penis and determine if he has had sex before, it is impossible to look at a woman's vagina whether you are a gynecologist or her lover, and determine if she has had sex before. In some countries, women face the demand that they have an intact hymen as a guarantee they have not had premarital sex. While doctors can and do perform surgery to tighten the vaginal corona, the procedure is expensive and does not guarantee bleeding. More often they try to help patients through non-surgical treatment from the gynecologist, counselor and physiotherapist in an approach to reduce a woman's self-inflicted guilt. +Hopefully a better understanding of the physiology of sex and of the vaginal corona will provide the writers of erotica some help in writing stories of virginal sex. Clearing up the myths and misconceptions regarding the vaginal corona can not only help writers create more accurate portrayals of sex, it may also help in a person's actual sex life. Perhaps this bit of information will help some of the writers here create better or at least more realistic accounts of first time sex. +The information outlined above was from a booklet issued last Spring by The Swedish Association for Sexuality Education or ""RFSU"" and from a press release titled ""Time for a more accurate terminology: Hymen renamed 'vaginal corona',"" issued December 8th, 2009." +469,How to Power Up Your Masturbation,SunrockSin,How To,2008-06-29,2008-06-29,2022-01-04 08:33:18,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-power-up-your-masturbation,"Tired of cheap, underpowered and undependable vibrators?","['Toys', 'Vibrator']",3.94,"For those of you who are tired of having to sneak into your local sex shop or of receiving those knowing looks from your mailman or mailwoman when you receive that ""special"" package, there is a feasible alternative. The alternative will also save you from spending a lot of money for that special vibratory toy only to find it is a cheap, poorly made product that doesn't last very long. Additionally, with all the problems with children's toys imported from China, the adult toy markets are experiencing some similar problems. +Wouldn't it be nice to avoid the embarrassment, hassle and disappointment in your search for a truly satisfying masturbatory experience? Well, for the well equipped handyman the perfect answer may already be in your garage. While there are a considerable number of items in the garage that can provide some exciting sexual experimentation, I am specifically talking of the vibratory sanders. +Power tools, more specifically the large vibratory sanders have been looked at in some earlier How to submissions here at Lit, but I think, with the growth of the small, detail sander market there is a wonderful untapped resource for masturbators looking for a more discerning application of vibratory power. Yes, the large sanders are a handy devise, especially for milking that one extra orgasm out of your, already spent cock, the smaller detail sanders are small enough to access some of the tenderest, most hard to get to places on your body. +The Sears Craftsman vibratory sander has a pad sixe of approximately 4"" x 9"", which, if used with a towel can vibrate a cock and the accompanying balls easily drawing out orgasm after massive orgasm, but hold that bad boy up to your girlfriend, wife or significant other and they'll be heading for the door. Now, Ryobi has an attractive design with a small 1-1/2"" x 1-1/2"" triangular head that can easily titillate in and out of some of the most intriguing places. +For guys, try slipping the head of your Ryobi between your balls and cock. The sensation there will not be as intense as if you hold the head actually on your cock, but this level of vibration will slowly work you up, leading to an extended session tortuously hanging you on the edge of orgasm before tipping you over the edge. You older guys will find yourself spurting your cum up your chest and over your shoulder just like you did back in college. +Of course if you are in a hurry, slip that tiny triangle on your frenulum, you know, that sensitive spot on the underside of your cock near the tip. Yeah, you'll be splashing your cum in just a few moments, letting you get on with your day. On the other hand, if you are looking for a slow burn, try wrapping the vibrating pad in some towels or even better your wife's or girlfriend's panties. You can dull the sensation that way and tease yourself to some expansive climaxes. +Now, if you are interested in including your female partner in the vibratory delights, you might want to look at some of the more petite detail vibratory sanders. Black and Decker has several models that even the moat feminine and discerning of your companions will not be afraid of. You will most likely want to wrap the vibrating pad in some delicate fabric before sliding it over her most sensitive areas. Perhaps once you get her used to the petite sanders she might even consider the Ryobi or even the Craftsman. Hook her up to one of those big boys and she will be coming all night long. +The smaller vibratory sanders may also let you share in the delight. Those of you who have had fun watching her use a small vibrator while your cock is deep in her pussy, imagine how nice it will be with one of those detail sanders getting her off time and time again, all the while your cock is feeling her come again and again. Hell, grab that Ryobi with the long handle and train it up near your balls while you are inside her, that will get your attention and hers. +Some of these tools have battery attachments, while others must plug into an outlet so you will need to make sure the outlets are handy before you start to play. Additionally, don't be foolish enough to try these tools in the shower or bathtub, even the battery powered tools aren't built for wet conditions. +So there you have it, next time you want to investigate some sex toys to use and share with your lover, you don't have to sneak into the local sex shops or even go online, just head out to your local hardware store and get your toys there. For those of you into a bit of the BDSM, they do have an assortment of clamps, ropes and chains there for your perusal.

I have 26 distinct gangs identified by the police where I live. No, it's not Boston. I moved from Boston a few years ago to afford my dream house. +I bought a small mansion, an English Tudor, circa 1915 that is original to the period and historically persevered. Only, there are multiple shootings, murders, drugs, prostitution, rape, robberies, and domestic disputes every day. You don't want to walk around my neighborhood after 7pm. Living here, I feel much like Sean Connery when he played Forrester in Finding Forrester. +Yet, it's getting better. The police are making headway. We have a neighborhood crime watch and I joined the local civic association. Also, by exerting a bit of political pressure and getting my neighbors to sign a petition, we were able to close off our street and make it a cul-de-sac. Now, the only cars on my street are those who live here or who are visiting. Slowly but surely, we are taking back our neighborhood. +I've done all that I can do. My cars are alarmed, locked, and garaged behind a locked fence. My property is enclosed by a 7 foot fence. I have a dog that hears a cat walking by the house in the snow. My house is surrounded by security lights that brighten my side of the street, as would an airport illuminate their runway, and I have an alarm on every window and door, with locks on the windows that doesn't allow the windows to open more than twelve inches. I'm protected. Yet, if they are determined, to get in my house, the bad guys will somehow gain forced entry. +My girlfriend is a third degree black belt in Martial Arts and could kick my ass if I didn't out weigh her by eighty pounds and have the strength of weightlifter. An ex-boxer, I studied Martial Arts, too, but not to be belted, only to learn how to defend myself. Suffice to say, thanks in part to my training in the military, I know how to protect myself. +For those of you who are not physically fit, I have some helpful suggestions that may save your life. First, put down the donut and the cigarette. My advice to you is to get in enough of a general good condition that, if you were being chased, you can run a couple of blocks to safety without having a heart attack. +1\. Don't be a victim. Know your surroundings. Don't walk with your hands in your pockets and your head down. The criminals are looking for people like that. Stay alert. Stay on brightly lit streets and keep away from darkened doorways and alleys. Walk with a friend. +2\. If confronted, run. Don't be a hero. There are lots of dead heroes in the cemetery. Leaving the scene is always the best advice. Assume they have a weapon. +3\. Carry a whistle with you or scream if you are a woman and yell if you are a man. +4\. Have your cell phone handy. Only, remember, the police cannot trace calls to 911 when made from a cell phone, as they can when you make your call on a landline. +5\. Get a federal identification card, FID, and buy mace or pepper spray and keep it in your pocket with your finger on the trigger. I don't recommend you buy a gun. Too many times your own gun is used against you because when the chips are down, the average person will freeze and can't take that extra step and pull the trigger. On the other hand, now the criminal has a gun, your gun, and he has no hesitation in shooting you to death. +The above is the best advice for those of you are cannot fight off an attacker. For those of you who are in shape and who are unafraid to do what you have to do in a kill or be killed situation, here is more helpful advice that just may save your life without having to carry a gun and use deadly force. +1\. Run. You are not a coward to run. You are smart. The best advice is to always flee and remove yourself from the situation and out of harm's way. Always assume they have a weapon. +2\. Just as written above, don't be a victim by putting yourself in a place or a situation to be victimized. Stay alert and know your surroundings. +3\. If he has a gun or a knife, give them whatever they want. It's foolish to die for money, a watch or a ring. Material possessions can always be replaced. Moreover, even if he doesn't kill you, you don't want to be stabbed or shot. +4\. If they try and put you in a car, make your stand there. Refuse. Fight for your life, if you must. Do not get in the car. It always turns out bad if they are able to drive you to a different place, a place that they know and a place where they are comfortable. Remember to not get in a car with your assailant. +5\. You must have the mindset that you will kill this person if you must to save yourself because they will kill you. This is no joke. They will kill you. Any veteran who has been involved in hand-to-hand combat type of situation knows what I mean. If you don't have the mindset to take a life then, whatever you do, don't get in a life and death fight with him because he doesn't want to be caught by the police and go to jail and chances are, he has that desperate mindset and you will die. +6\. Buy a Kabuton. Kabuton's are a 3-4"" steel pipe that fits in the palm of your hand, is easily concealed in your pocket or purse and hangs off your keychain. You can do some serious damage by wielding a Kabuton and they are legal. They even sell a book on how to use the device. +You can kill someone with a Kabuton if you force it in their eyeball, as you can cause serious damage if you force it up their nose or in their ear. Yes, it sounds terrible, but this person wants to hurt you, maim you or kill you. +If you make a fist around a Kabuton, it will give you enough weighted zip to your punch to knock out your assailant. Only don't punch him in the eye, the mouth or the nose, hit him hard with an uppercut under the jaw. That will temporary stop the blood flow to his brain and knock him out. +The nice thing about a Kabuton is that, it has the element of surprise. If you use it correctly, you can inflict enough pain to give you the time to run away. +7\. Buy a pair of Sap Gloves. These are weighted gloves with steel shot in the knuckles. The police use them. They make good workout gloves. They have the kind with fingers for the winter time and without fingers for the summer time. I own both pairs. I love them. Each glove weighs an extra half pound to a pound. You can knock someone out with one punch if you hit them right and hard enough without damaging your hands. +8\. Take a martial arts course. You don't have to have a black belt to be proficient in martial arts. Just look at some of those ultimate fighting champions. They use a combination of tactics to win, which is what you must do to survive. +9\. Break a bone. It's easy to break someone's finger or fingers, especially if you are pressuring their fingers against your Kabuton. +The kneecaps are very vulnerable and easy to snap if you know how to kick. It only takes 6 to 8 pounds of force. Only, you want to do it in a fast kick and you don't want to miss because then your assailant will kick you. +Any joints are a good target, such as wrists, ankles, and elbows. They can easily be broken with the correct amount of leverage. +10\. Learn where the pressure points are, especially in the forearm and hand. You can use that to your advantage by making your assailant drop his weapon. Although I don't recommend you fight someone with a gun or a knife, you may have no choice if he's trying to get you to go in a car with him. +A strike to the Adam's apple is painful. If you don't believe me, gently tap your own Adam's apple. +A hard strike to the temple could be deadly. Don't try this at home. +11\. Those Karate chops that you see in the movies to the side of the neck, really work. They cut off the blood flow to the brain. Most times they are temporary and will knock someone out for a few seconds or a few minutes depending on how hard the blow and the person receiving the blow. Only, don't practice on your friend, because you could kill them. Use a dummy or a heavy bag to practice your Karate chops. Unless you are proficient in Karate, use your forearm to give the blow instead of your open hand. +12\. How much do you weigh? Step hard on their instep. Fall back on them. Put your weight into it. Crush them. Use your weight against them. Broken bones to the feet are easy to do and very painful. Moreover, breaking your assailant's foot will hinder him from chasing you and allow you to the time to run away. +13\. Easily anyone can toss another person by taking advantage of and using their forward momentum. You don't have to be a Judo expert to toss someone over your shoulder. Only, don't try it unless you've practiced and mastered the technique in a gym or dojo. +14\. Learn how to do a head butt. As a boxer in the ring, head butts are really effective. Only, you don't want to be the one receiving the head butt, you want to be the one giving the head butt. +A head butt followed by a knee to the groin followed by a stomp to the instep and a hard kick to the knee with your downward sloping foot will certainly be enough to incapacitate your assaulter allowing you the time to flee. You don't want to hang around there ala Rocky Balboa with you're your hands raised over your head while you dance around in victory because some of these guys may be hyped up on drugs and can take more punishment that you may be willing to dish out. Run. Get the Hell out of there now. +15\. Use whatever you have available, a briefcase, pocketbook, keys, car antenna, bottle, whatever, don't be afraid to scratch his face and/or pull his hair. Get his DNA under your fingernails and hair in your hand to identify your assailant latter. +Stay safe. +You may be wondering how I know all these self-defense techniques. Well, I'll tell you. Have you read some of my stories? Some of them are pretty bad. If I'm going to continue to write, I had to learn how to fight." +471,How To Pull on a Night Out,rachlou,How To,2007-05-01,2007-05-01,2022-01-04 08:33:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pull-on-a-night-out,Without resorting to caveman tactics!,"['British Dating', 'Dating Advice', 'Dating Humor', 'Relationship Advice']",4.63,"_Authors Note: Please enjoy the following piece of light-hearted advice and take the time to appreciate just how many hours I had to spend in bars/pubs/clubs drinking exotic cocktails whilst honing and testing the techniques described below. It was a hard job, but somebody had to do it..._ +Your vote for this contest is the only reward for my selfless and painstaking research. +Ps. For those of you unfamiliar with the word 'pulling', it is a British slang word that means to pick up / score / hook up / acquire a date / get lucky et al. Get it? + **How to Score a Date on a Night Out** +Before you get too hung up on the whole notion of pulling a potential date, please try and remember that nights out are meant to be fun! To put it simply, the harder you try, the more disappointed you will be when you are shot down in flames each time you take your courage in your hands to have a crack at some hot babe or stud. +Most of the suggestions I am about to make can be applied to both sex's, although as a woman my experience will inevitably be from my own gender's perspective. + **First things first...** +Before you even set foot outside the front door for an evening of drinking and flirting, you need to make an honest assessment of a few crucial issues. Firstly you need to check your look in the mirror and decide if what you are wearing is appropriate for the type of place you are going to and the people you will be mixing with. +Age is a huge factor and it is important to dress in keeping for your generation. +There is nothing worse than seeing some balding guy with a satin shirt slashed to the waist and a gold medallion nestling amongst straggly grey chest hair. You may think that it looks sexy -- and indeed it did when John Travolta was strutting his stuff in Saturday Night Fever -- but now it just looks sad. Please go and change into something more appropriate. Casual and/or classy is always a good look for men. +Women need to make sure they don't look like mutton dressed as lamb. It is fine to emphasise your best attributes, but always stick to either top or bottom half -- never BOTH. If you go on the pull with your tits hanging out and a micro mini barely covering your ass, then the only thing you'll be pulling is a potential 'client'. Great if you're short of cash, but not so great when you are after a potential boyfriend! +So, once you have established that your clothes are tasteful and not likely to stop traffic, have a think about what your expectations are. If all you fancy is a one night stand, then your task won't be terribly hard. Basically it is not all that difficult to find a bloke willing to fuck you senseless as long as you make this clear up front. On the flip side of the coin there are always plenty of women happy to do the same -- just go for the really drunk ones and BINGO, your fuck for the night is assured. + _However, that is a truly despicable way to behave and I don't condone this type of behaviour! Casual sex is likely to earn you a whole collection of STD's as well as a bad reputation -- so be careful where you 'go' on a night out._ +Okay, you are all glammed up and the taxi has arrived to take you into town to meet your companions for a drink or ten. What's next? + **Check out the talent...** +Once you have arrived at your pub/club and are all ready to go forth and sample the sweets in the shop, it is a good idea to head for the toilets before the bar (if you are a girl), and make sure you have no embarrassing mascara runs or hair tragedies. +Next stop: the bar. + _WARNING! Don't overdo the alcohol consumption. You may think you are the hottest thing on the planet following fifteen shots of vodka, but all everyone else will see is a seriously inebriated mess. Drunken people rarely look attractive when their lipstick is skewed and they are seconds away from vomiting in the street. By all means have a few drinks (alcohol is a great confidence giver), but go easy on the cocktails and then you won't run the risk of waking up next to Mr or Mrs Troglodyte._ +Once drinks are bought and paid for, find a central location and make your stand. + _Please don't go and sit at that table in the far corner by the super woofer speakers. There is a very good reason why it's vacant. Yes, your ears will bleed after ten minutes sat there listening to 130 decibels of rap music and nobody in their right mind is likely to approach you in order to chat you up._ +So move dimwit! +It is only fair to say at this point that your success rate in pulling is helped by your looks. (I would be lying if I said otherwise). But -- gorgeous people don't necessarily have all the luck. Many folk will not bother chatting up the God/Goddess stood by the bar simply because they think they are so far out of their league, they aren't going to be worth the oxygen expended. +Naturally the opposite can also work against you to a degree. If you are seriously challenged in the looks department, then you need to maximise on your personality as this is what will get you noticed. An ugly guy can do surprisingly well with the ladies if he has a great sense of humour and a winning personality. + _Just look at all those ugly guys married to gorgeous women if you don't believe me! (Okay so those men are mega rich, but that wasn't the only reason they got the girl...was it?!)_ +A key factor in 'pulling-success' is self confidence. If you think you're worth talking to, chances are other people will agree with you. If you think you are a boring and deeply sad individual, other people will _also_ agree with you. +Treat potential dates as human beings, just like you. Yes, they may turn out to be rude and obnoxious, but that is true of any situation, not just chatting up potential dates. _If_ you are shot down by ten women in a row, then perhaps you need to examine your technique more closely. But you should expect a certain amount of rejection -- nobody is God's gift after all (with the possible exception of Ewan Macgregor, but then I'm biased) +Be realistic about your appeal to potential dates. You may think you're a hot sex machine, but the blonde with the big tits only sees Mr Bean on a bad hair day. If your mates are laughing like hyenas when you inform them of your intention to walk over and chat up that foxy woman by the bar, perhaps it would be wise to listen to them and save yourself the humiliating rejection that will surely follow. + _Of course there is always the possibility she's registered blind and she likes the sound of your husky voice just enough to talk to you all night long..._ +For the purposes of pulling, it is usually not a good idea to go out in a large group of friends. This is much too intimidating to any potential partners. Nobody is likely to make a move when you are surrounded by lots of loud and noisy people. It is far better to go out with one or two friends who can easily melt away should you meet Mr or Ms Right. + _This is also useful as they can distract his/her ugly mate while you turn on the charm offensive in the direction of your intended beloved._ +Once you are seated comfortably (or stood) in the centre of the bar or thereabouts, it is time to check out the available talent. You may find that nobody in your vicinity is remotely interesting, but don't lose heart, people come and go all the time. If all else fails you can always move on to another bar after this round of drinks. +Once you have assessed the room, return your attention to your companions. If it looks like you are having fun, laughing and joking with your friends, people will notice you more. They are more likely to want to talk to you than if you were sat in silence and staring into your pint glass looking suicidal. + **Help, I've spotted someone I fancy...what do I do now?** +If there is someone you like the look of, you need to find out if they have noticed that you actually exist before you make a move on them. It is useful to take a walk past them, either to go to the bar, or to the toilets. As you sidle past on a go-slow, try and catch their eye and smile at them in a flirty manner. +If they completely ignore you or immediately look away, you can be fairly certain they aren't interested. If on the other hand they give you some eye contact back and maybe smile too, then you are in with a chance. +Keep on walking and give them some time to think about you. Once you pass them again on the return journey, repeat the same procedure and pause again as you pass. It doesn't hurt to brush up against them if the bar is busy - this only serves to strengthen the subliminal message that you like them. + _Girls -- please note that men are notoriously thick when it comes to body language. They consistently fail to read our messages that blatantly scream we fancy the pants of them. If a guy appears to ignore you, it is worth having a second or even third attempt at attracting his attention. The chances are he simply didn't see you ogling him the first time round because he was firmly fixated on the SKY Sports screen behind you._ +Guys -- if a girl ignores you and/or turns her back on you, she really isn't just playing hard to get. She doesn't like you so take the hint and try someone else! If you stand there openly staring at her, she is likely to call security and have you unceremoniously thrown out of the establishment. + **She / he wants me! What next?** +If you are a girl, then tradition has it that we sit back and wait for the guy to make an approach. This may seem rather unfair, but it is the norm. By all means make the first move if you are feeling confident, but otherwise sit back and wait for your prey to come to you. +Guys - keep watching her for a few minutes just to make sure she is genuinely interested. If she is looking at you coyly and playing with her hair whilst smiling in a flirty manner, you are well in there so go for it tiger! +Make your initial approach slowly and always be polite. Don't bother with the cheesy chat up lines -- just introduce yourself and make conversation. Sounds simple and it is simple. Find out if you have any common ground besides a mutual desire to get laid very soon. Be yourself and don't act too cocky. Ask her if she would like a drink and if she says yes - don't forget to buy one for her friends too. By all means introduce your mates into the group and they can keep her friends amused while you sow the seeds for a match made in heaven. + _Please note: it is wholly unacceptable to approach her mate, chat her up for ten minutes and THEN say, ""By the way, I really fancy your friend -- is she single?"" This is rude and not nice, so don't do it. The friend will be extremely pissed off and justifiably resistant to helping you get off with her mate._ +Girls -- if the man of your dream seems too shy to make a move, then you must go to him. Wait until he goes to the bar and then sidle up next to him. Make small talk like, ""Can you believe how long it takes to get served in this place?"", or something similar. Ask him if he lives locally and just be friendly. If he seems too much like hard work, then maybe he isn't the man for you, so cut your losses and return to your friends. +It is a good idea to check out if the person has a wedding ring on at this point. If they have a suspicious white mark on their ring finger, then it suggests they normally wear a ring there and you should run a mile. It really isn't worth messing with someone who is a lying, cheating scumbag. It will only end in tears. + **They like me -- where do we go from here?** +If conversation is going swimmingly and you have not struggled with things to talk about, then you are doing well. If the other person is hanging off every word you say, then they are definitely interested. If on the other hand their eyes are glazed over in boredom and they have lapsed into a coma, then it is a really good idea to cut your losses and move on to pastures new. +You may find at some point that your potential date has to leave and go to another venue -- they may be meeting friends for a meal or something similar. If they regretfully tell you they need to go, ask if you can give them your phone number, or have theirs. Of course they may not agree, but you never know! +If the sexual attraction is sizzling then ask for a kiss if appropriate. + _Blokes - this doesn't mean a full tonsil-tickling, groping-session in full view of all her mates. She is unlikely to appreciate such behaviour unless she is a total slapper. If she IS a total slapper, please consider raising your standards!_ +If you are lucky enough to spend a decent amount of time with your _paramour_ , then you will have more of an opportunity to form a fledgling relationship, always assuming neither of you are totally inebriated. +Please don't be tempted to go home with them at the end of the evening. As stated previously, casual sex is always a bad idea for all the obvious reasons. However, if the chemistry is just so damn potent that you are practically having sex in a corner booth of the night club, then at least practice safe sex when you go back to their place or yours. + _Just remember that if you are drunk, your perception of this person may be dangerously askew. Ever had that experience when you went to bed with Brad Pitt and woke up next to Fred Flintstone? Don't go there!!_ +Once again, exchange phone numbers and keep it sweet. If the night is still early, you have plenty of time to have another crack at the cherry and add to your collection of possible future dates. It never hurts to have a replacement (or three) in the wings! + **The morning after the night before...** +For your sake I really hope you took my advice and didn't open your eyes to see Quasimodo or his sister asleep and snoring loudly in your bed. +You may well have a hangover, but hopefully you will have collected at least one telephone number. +Wait a day or two before ringing if possible, so as not to appear too keen and desperate. If you really can't wait, at least leave it until the late afternoon before texting or ringing. It is probably a good idea to text first, so as to test the water. If the person does not reply within 24 hours, then you can safely assume they weren't interested. At this point just chalk it down to experience and look forward to the next night out. + _Of course there is always the outside possibility they were involved in an accident and are currently in Intensive Care with their mobile switched off...but that's highly unlikely so don't pin your hopes on that particular scenario!_ +If the person DOES reply and a conversation ensues, then keep it casual for a few days. Try ringing them and talking regularly. Make sure they sound like how you remember them and you can't hear anyone in the background saying, ""Darling! Did you take my suit to the dry cleaners?"" +Try suggesting a proper date and see how they feel about this. If they agree then arrange a night that suits you both. Having already met them, at least you know that you fancy them. The next step is to find out whether or not you can stand to spend any more time in their company. +If for some reason you failed miserably and hit stony ground at every turn -- don't despair - all is not lost! Keep trying and if you don't succeed, try and try again. Failing that, go to Plan B. + **Plan B...** +Arrange a night out with your good-looking friend who has the gift of the gab and always pulls the hottest chicks in the bar. You will be certain to pull whilst accompanying him, as he'll need you to chat to the ugly friend while he charms the knickers off the good-looking one. +Okay, it may not be ideal, but at the very least you might end up with a sympathy fuck! +Good luck!" +472,How To Pull Up Your Story Score,MaxSebastian,How To,2001-06-12,2001-06-12,2022-01-04 08:33:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-pull-up-your-story-score,Writing quality erotic fiction is not beyond you.,"['Characters Story', 'Daughter Home', 'Good Story', 'Home College', 'Love Scene', 'People Live', 'Powerful Love', 'Sex Scene', 'Stories Literotica', 'Writing Sex']",4.71,"**You don't have to be a genius to be a good writer, you just have to be careful. Quality writing is not a magical ability bestowed at birth: you can learn how to produce wonderful language that really stirs your readers' emotions. Don't settle for second best: grant the world the gift of your inspirational talent.** +Now I don't claim to be an expert, here: there is no such thing as a real 'expert' anyway. Even a Professor at Harvard can be wrong, and even the best writers in the world make mistakes. What I offer here are suggestions that I feel will help fulfill the potential of your imagination. I'm sure there are all manner of weaknesses in my own writing, but I do have confidence and try to practice the kinds of things that I will advise you here. Perhaps my writing is proof of something, but the truth is that I still have a lot to learn as well. +You may, of course, be a strong writer already and know all about what I'm going to say here, but there's nothing wrong with a little reassurance that what you're doing is great and you're already a genius, is there? +So take my hand, dear reader, and together we'll do our best to brighten someone else's day. + **1\. Creating characters who engage with the readers** +To create a character isn't just about determining what colour their hair is, what their measurements are, how tall they are or if they're 'hot'. If your characters have depth, your readers will love them and your score will push skywards. +What is the attitude of your character at any one time? Arrogant? Nervous? Selfish? Selfless? Weak-willed? Strong-willed? Laid back? Up tight? Paranoid? Confident? Funny? Serious? Depressed? Chirpy? Snobbish? Down to Earth? Callous? What are their beliefs? Go into the thought process, how they feel, what they think about the other characters, their ambitions, their decisions based on past experience. Weaknesses and flaws also make characters human and more interesting, but you still have to make characters attractive for erotic stories. +Another thing that will make characters interesting is if they progress through the story. By interacting with other characters and experiencing story events, your character might have changed from who he or she was in the beginning to the result at the end. A nervous person with low self-esteem might meet someone who is so attracted to them that they are given fairly high self-esteem by the final paragraph. A very self-righteous, arrogant person could be turned into a nervous wreck if he or she is rejected enough. A deeply cynical person might gain faith after meeting an inspirational person. Think of it as the Ebenezer Scrooge effect – Scrooge was a horribly selfish man until the ghosts showed him the error of his ways, and then he changed. +One thing to try is to base a character on someone you know fairly well: just make the character different enough so that no one could possibly recognise who you are basing a character on. So what about that dark-haired friend of yours – how would she react to the man of her dreams? What about that shy blonde you know who wouldn't say boo to a goose – if she suddenly found herself involved in an emergency, how would she cope? What about that guy you know who is so in love himself that it makes you feel sick? What would happen if he lost everything and was forced into some demeaning job to claw back his career? How would he feel about being looked down upon all of a sudden? How does the sex progress between your characters? Is it silent apart from the animal urges, or – perhaps more realistically – how do the characters communicate between each other while making love? Does he make her laugh when he tickles her with his breath on her inner thigh? Does she feel too self- conscious to give him sexual requests? How can she overcome that? +Have a look around you in your day-to-day life. How do people react to situations? How do they behave in social situations, how do they cope with feeling a certain way? Plagiarise real lives as much as you like - there's no copyright on reality. Just don't use real names – that might get you sued. Just because you're writing about sex, don't feel that character can be left out: sexual stories are much more sexy when the characters seem realistic. And if your readers really engage with those characters, those story scores will go up and up – and you could get emails asking you to write more about those characters. +Oh, and don't feel you can't fantasise just because you want to write a realistic character. Realism doesn't mean everyone has to look like a complete swamp donkey: if you want a buxom blonde with beautiful blue eyes and a slender figure, go right ahead and create her – but really try to breathe life into her. Imagine what she's thinking about, what she's hoping, what she's expecting, what she's afraid of, what she wants, what she likes. That guy can still have powerful equipment between his legs, but what is he worried about? What does he think about his partner? What does he think his partner thinks about him? +As well as observing those people who live around you and using their characteristic habits to breathe life into your characters, don't be afraid of taking inspiration from other stories or even the movies, too. You don't need to copy anything or plagiarise what you see, but just take note of certain characters you see. Observe the characters you see up there on the silver screen, imagine actors playing the part of your characters: you may think it's tacky to write about celebrities picking up their chauffeurs for sex or teeny pop stars falling for some random fan backstage at a concert, but that shouldn't stop you from thinking about the way Matt Damon smiles or how to cheer up Michelle Pfeiffer if she'd been crying. Imagine your favourite actor is simply acting out your character and really making the part their own. You might think of Sean Connery when you're writing about a guy called John Hargreaves, but the reader only gets that John Hargreaves has a deep seductive voice and a comforting demeanour. You might think of Anna Kournikova and the way her tight clothing clings to her firm curves, but if you call her Zoe Anderson and dress her up as a shy office secretary, the reader only knows about Zoe Anderson. Of course the danger with using celebrities like Ms. Kournikova is that you will slip into clichés of Western ideals, or turn out a seriously empty character, but if you can picture a character in you mind, it sometimes helps you to substantiate them. Besides, if you start off thinking about a celebrity and you keep writing about him or her under a different name or setting, pretty soon that character will fall away from the original inspiration and embrace their new identity. Then Zoe Anderson really is Zoe Anderson, not some tennis starlet you once saw in a magazine advertising underwear. + **2\. A plot is a character's best friend** +I think many stories on Literotica that don't score very high marks seriously lack any kind of storyline. They may have a 'plot', i.e. so-and-so meets so- and-so and they fall for each other and then do it in a Volkswagen during their lunch break, but they have no real story to speak of, nothing that would make you remember that tale for more than five minutes after reading it. The only way to distinguish between those kind of pure-porn pieces is how many people are involved and which particular sexual acts occur in which order. It's like story-by-numbers. +The key to an enjoyable ride is in powering up the plot: think of it as a roller coaster: you have to get on somewhere safe, then you build up to that first thrill, then it gets wiggly and you throw up all over the huge bald Republican sitting behind you and...well, perhaps that was a bad analogy. The truth is that there is no easy way to think of a plot if you are really stuck for ideas. But that doesn't mean you should give up, now, does it? +There are six main questions involved in a story: Who, Where, What, How, Why and When. Try making up answers to all of these questions, and you will have a storyline in no time. +If you get truly lost for ideas, then you need some assistance. First of all, things that can spark some inspiration: firstly, you might get an idea purely from experimenting with setting. Sit down, relax, and imagine a place where you could some characters might interact. Don't just think of the usual suburban house in a neighbourhood similar to your own, really let your mind wonder. Hmm...how about the French Riviera? A sleepy little fishing village on the Côte D'Azur...the Mediterranean sea lapping against the shore as the sun begins to set...or how about the frozen north? A storm rages while two people hide out in a snow cavern, huddling together for warm...have a look at a world map, pick somewhere different-looking, somewhere unusual, maybe somewhere romantic. +Perhaps do some research on the internet to find out roughly what the place is like – if you need to, you can always ask people for assistance in your research on the Literotica forum. Different places invoke different sentiments. Once you've picked an exotic or wild or fascinating place, just have a think how two lost souls might end up there. Perhaps one of them has a murky past and has fled their original country. Perhaps one of them was getting away from it all after a tragic divorce. Perhaps it's just a vacation thing. +Don't just think three-dimensionally, though. The great thing about setting is that you aren't restricted to modern-day life. Try setting your story in the past, perhaps in some golden age of castles and knights in shining armour, perhaps not so long ago - a love affair caught up in the Russian Revolution of 1917. And there's always the future, which has the great advantage of not requiring much in the way of research. It can be how you want it to be. Humanity living in space? Go for it. Two lovers on the run from a ruthless police force in a world run by genetic cloning where natural sex is illegal. Interactions in a future cyberspace, perhaps. +Another way to get ideas is through the characters. Pick two strange people, and then explore how they might meet – is it blind luck or is it destiny? Where do they meet? Why do they meet? Think about those six questions again but with these two (or more) characters you have created. A popular idea is two people of very different character – the renowned 'opposites attract' idea – or people who connect on some deep level they've never experienced before, or people who live on different sides of a conflict (think _Romeo and Juliet_ ). Character-driven plots are limitless because like human beings, there are an infinite number of variables you can put into a character. +Don't be afraid to take inspiration from existing stories. Just so long as you write all the text yourself and don't use copyrighted characters without permission, you can explore whatever you like within reason. You cannot put a copyright on an idea, only on actual writing, actual text on a page. If you read a story that really turns you on about a policewoman catching a notorious cat burglar and falling in love with him helplessly on the ride to the police station, and you feel you could explore that kind of scenario further, then use that idea. Just twist it slightly to allow your own creativity to flourish. So you might like to write a story about a female bounty hunter instead of that cop, a tough girl with remorseless devotion to the law. She hunts down a charming, highly cultured diamond thief and finds to her horror that she cannot stop thinking about him. Where do you think that would lead? +Again, as with your characters, don't be afraid to take ideas from the movies. Was there a particularly inspiring love scene that really melted your heart and made you want to see more? Then take that idea further than the movie did. Did you love that scene in that wonderful Steven Soderbergh movie _Out of Sight_? A bunch of boastful advertising men try to pick up Jennifer Lopez in a restaurant while the Detroit snow falls outside in the darkness. She ignores them all, then George Clooney, the escaped bank robber, appears and offers to buy her a drink, which she accepts immediately with the warmest smile. Take that situation, and transplant it to a new setting, with different characters, but keep the essence that made you love that scene from the movie. So now you have Julia Stretton, who is sitting at a beach bar on the Pacific Coast, thinking about that wonderful man she was prevented from dating because of Fate all those months ago. She sits there and a bunch of arrogant preppy boys turn up and start hitting on her. She bats them all away cruelly, and they pass comment that she'd just frigid, anyway. But then he turns up. Simon Faulkner. The man she just couldn't get out of her mind for months, the man who had been taken away from her by the cruel hand of Fate. She agrees instantly to go with him...and so on. The idea is the same, but the situation and the characters are different, so it is a different story. You are then free to explore it as much as you like: Simon Faulkner is a Russian spy who is so in love with Julia Stretton that he would betray his Motherland for just one more chance to see her smile, perhaps. +Your scores will definitely head upwards if you provide the reader with interesting situations. Just have a good think – it'll all work out. + **3\. Language: the writer's paint** +For an erotic story, the sex scene is the focal point: so don't disappoint your reader, don't shy away from description. You may have an interesting order of play, but those votes will be far higher if you really put us in the picture. +When you're writing, and especially when you're writing the sex scene or scenes, try and use all five senses. What does it feel like? How does it look? How do they taste? What are their fragrances like? What noises does they make? Don't be afraid of reminding the reader every now and then just how rich and amazing an experience it is you are recounting - with all those wonderful five senses. Just don't repeat the actual words you've used before. +The danger of just saying 'this happened and then this happened and then after that this happened and then that' is that the sex scene will be sex-scene-by- numbers again. Bad karma. Rich and detailed descriptions in sex scenes lead to very favourable responses from readers, believe me. What kind of panties was she wearing? How much pubic hair was there? How did he feel about the softness of her breasts? What does she think about his strong arms and gentle hands? Details lead to authority in writing. +A few more pointers on language: don't put words in capitals to emphasise them – you should trust the reader to know where the stresses are in the sentences - capitals are unnecessary and give writing an amateur feel. Try and use brackets as sparingly as possible - it's very rare in fiction that you actually need them, and your writing will come across with more maturity and integrity without them. If you write a sentence and suddenly realise that you have to explain what you've referred to because you didn't explain earlier, go back to an earlier part of the story and put in the explanation. For example: + _David was sitting in the dark corner of the bar sipping a diet soda (he was not yet old enough to drink beer)._ +The explanation of the first part of the sentence just doesn't need to be in brackets – even if you don't want to go back earlier in the story and tell us how old David is, you can still re-word this sentence slightly to avoid those brackets. Brackets prevent the language from flowing, and whenever you write, you should be making it as easy as possible for the reader's eyes to pass along the sentences. +When you write sex scenes, try to steer away from having characters saying things like 'Oooooooooohhhhhhhh Ggggggggoooooooooooddddd' and so on - it's another little thing that points to immature writing. There's been a few conversations between writers and editors on the Literotica forum about this. The best thing to do is to just describe the scream/moan/groan - use similes and metaphors, perhaps. Just writing out strings of letters like that will bring down your story's score. +Remember to vary your terminology a little. Using the word 'cunt' all the time, for example, can get up some readers' noses. There are a lot of words out there that can be used in beautiful evocations of that heavenly area – if you can't think of them, just scout around other stories on Literotica and check out what everyone else is using. Using similar words and varying them will add quality to your writing. Apart from common words, try and make sure you never use a word twice in the same paragraph. +Avoid the use of exclamation marks unless really, really necessary. Your words should motivate the emotions, not your punctuation. A boring situation isn't made more dramatic or exciting by just adding exclamation marks – instead, the writing will just appear cheesy and tacky. + **4\. The myth of difficult dialogue** +People who can't write dialogue are kidding themselves. Just because your first name's not Quentin, doesn't mean you have to accept that you'll never write good dialogue. All you have to do is think of what you want your characters to say, then imagine that you have to convey that information to someone else yourself, aloud. What would you say in the situation? The key to good dialogue if you're not fully confident is to read what you've written aloud. Is that really how people speak? People usually speak using shortened forms of words like 'cannot' and 'do not', so it often sounds more natural to use 'can't and 'don't'. An example for you: + _""I do not want to go out with you this evening, Michael, for I wish to spend time with my daughter who is home from college right now,"" she said._ +Read that line out loud, and despite the fact that it is grammatically perfect, no one would speak to anyone like that in the real world. It sounds stuffy, pompous, snobbish, and poor dialogue like that can alienate readers from the character. As I've said earlier, if your characters don't connect with the reader, their votes are going to pull down your score. It's obvious how bad that line is when you read it aloud, but it's not impossible to fix. Just think exactly what information the character needs to convey to another character, and imagine what you would say in the situation. Remember, too, that people usually speak in short sentences with simple clauses. So if we were to rearrange our example, we'd probably some up with something like this: + _""I'm sorry Michael,"" she said, ""but I can't go with you tonight – my daughter's home from college and really I need to spend some time with her.""_ +You might even do a better job than I have with the line above, but you get the idea. Dialogue on the page doesn't need to be exactly as would be spoken in real life – otherwise there would be stumbling and hesitations all over the place – but it does need to flow in a realistic manner. But you can do it – you know instantly when someone you're talking to sounds like a nutter: so when you read out your dialogue, if you sound weird, or the line seems in any way unnatural, you need to alter it a little. + **5\. Avoid disappointment: give your story a strong ending** +A lot of people just don't think about the structure of their story – they just write whatever seems to come next. Sometimes, that process works out well: if your storyline is strong enough, you might not even have to worry about the structure, it may just come naturally. But typically, blind luck doesn't lead to good story structure, and if you don't give your readers a good structure, you'll lose their attention. +So, first of all, you need a beginning, a middle and an ending. The beginning is critical to get your reader into the story, the middle is important to keep them with you and the ending needs to be good to leave them with a good taste in their mouth, so to speak. +For the beginning, don't be afraid to start what you would might is halfway through the story and then later go back and fill in the particulars. The important thing with erotica is not to ramble on for too long about trivial matters. Detailing a character's past, for example, may be useful to show how lucky or unlucky they've been in love up to this point, but it can slow down the reader and prove to be boring. The trick with a character's past is to hint at it every now and then throughout the story. Readers are looking for interesting, detailed characters, but they aren't looking to read biographies here. +So relax, set the scene, introduce the characters, perhaps offer subtle promises for what is to come. Get the reader on your side. +The middle: a lot of writers see this as the slack part of the story, where they can afford to just go with the flow and not worry about keeping things tight. But the middle has got to be strong if you want your readers to bother to continue on to that explosive ending you've got planned. +The thing with the middle is to remember your events. In your story, you should always be building up to an event, then exploring that event, then letting things fall a little quieter before building up to the next event. If there is too much happening all the time, the reader can get quite tired of the bombardment of action – give them a break every now and then. But if there are long periods without anything significant happening, readers will switch off and go looking for someone else's story. +Of course where erotica is concerned, the event is usually some kind of sexual confrontation – though it doesn't always have to be. Where the readers are looking for something to turn them on, you cannot afford a long period of time without reference to anything sexual. +Don't assume you need a lot of events in one story, though. A lot of very successful stories on Literotica are one-event tales, where the writer introduces characters, slowly builds up to the event, and goes out with a bang. The mistake with a one-event story is to have the event too early on and then trail off afterwards. If you have an event very early on and then nothing after that, the reader will be deeply disappointed, and may think that they have wasted their time reading on after the event. Disappointment needs to be avoided to push up that score, which is where endings come into play. +Endings need to provide satisfaction to the reader, they are the reward for the reader's effort in sticking with your whole story, so the ending needs to be good. It's ultimately up to you if the ending is happy or not, but a happy ending will do better in erotica since it's all about creating a fantasy and promoting enjoyment for the reader. +The thing to avoid is a finale that is in any way menial. If you've just finished a powerful love scene, don't spend the next 300 words describing how the characters picked up their weary bodies, went to the bathroom, cleaned their teeth and then went back to bed and fell fast asleep on their goose- feather pillows. We're not interested. That's the kind of thing that we assume might happen afterwards, so you don't need to state it. +It's far better, then, just to kill the story at a high point, perhaps even at the moment of orgasm. You may want to hint at what kind of future your characters will enjoy after that powerful love scene – but never, ever end on a downer. Don't have them yelling like a pair of angry walruses as they come together and then spend the last paragraph telling us that although it was great, the relationship just didn't work out and the two characters went back to a fairly mediocre, mundane existence. Even if you're recounting a real-life story: try not to kill the mood at the end. Better to leave out the future if it is a tepid one. +If your reader feels happy at the end, your score will improve, simple as that. + **6\. A couple of points before you graduate** +Avoid writing in the 2nd person if you can: you usually alienate an entire gender – there's nothing quite as off putting as being told that your throbbing cock is pulsating with desire if you don't actually have a cock, or that your pussy is like a lawn sprinkler in the middle of a hot summer's day if you've been banned from operating a sprinkler because of the local drought restrictions. +On another note, a pet hate of mine: the word 'blonde' or 'blond' is almost unique in the English language because, like French, it has to agree with the gender to which it is being attributed. So if you're describing a stunning golden-haired girl, it's 'blonde' with an 'e' on the end, and if you're talking about a ravishing yellow-haired garage mechanic, it's 'blond' without an 'e'. It can be especially confusing if you ever use the word 'blonde' or 'blond' to stand for the actual character – for example, _the blonde went shopping and bought three identical socks_ – sometimes if you use the wrong version of blond, the reader will start off imagining a blonde girl and then realise that the blond is, in fact, male. A Literotica Editor will probably pick up on points like this, but we want to make it as easy for an Editor as possible, don't we? +Which reminds me, make sure that you always use an editor before you submit a story. There's nothing so tragic as a good story littered with obvious spelling errors or typos that an Editor would have picked up on in the blink of an itchy eye. The Literotica Volunteer Editors facility is an incredibly good service. Without even paying anybody, you can get someone to look over your story to provide comments and point out mistakes. Don't be arrogant and feel you don't need an editor: even Hemingway had a sub-editor correcting his copy before it went to print. Sometimes you don't spot a typing error in your writing because your eyes are used to the material, and you see what you want to see rather than what you've written. Another person can pick up those errors quickly and easily, and your story will be much better before you post it. But do remember to contact the editor and ask them if they are available before you send them any material. There's nothing so rude as to send a story without even a greeting note to break the ice. +One advantage of going through an editor is the chance that all your apostrophes will be in the right places. Some readers will automatically go for that '1' button at the end of your story if you don't use apostrophes with care. In England recently, a retired journalist was so annoyed by the errors involving apostrophes that he took a pot of paint and went around correcting signs throughout the county. + **7\. Congratulations: here's your diploma. No, don't snatch, it's not polite** +It was a long trek, I'm sure you'll agree, but I do hope it's been worthwhile for you. It may seem like a complicated business writing creatively, but the truth is that anyone can do it. You just need a little resolve and a smidgeon of courage, and you'll be a star. +Literotica is a wonderful exercise in cultural democracy, providing a voice for anyone and everyone to reveal their creative sexual desires and promote the use of that greatest of things, imagination.

Other than the dot at the end of the sentence. Believe it or not, you already know a lot about punctuation. You read it every day and your brain remembers it a little, even if you don't. Trust me on this, I'm a total grammar geek. You know when it looks right and when it doesn't, but you may not always know why it's not right. Perhaps English isn't your first language and you just want to throw the dictionary at someone, preferably an English professor. You can try to hit me with it, but I learned how to duck. Maybe you just want to make things easier for your readers. Whatever your reason for skinny-dipping into my punctuation pool on an erotic site, welcome! +We're going to deal with a few primary pieces of punctuation and one that should be far more rare than it is around here. Each portion of this piece will be headed by the name of the punctuation in bold so you can find it easily without having to muck through a lot of reading that doesn't have anything to do with you. + **** + **0\. Essential Grammar** +You have to know a little grammar to know when to use what punctuation. I'm going to keep the grammar minimal, short, teeny-tiny. That way you don't suffer any more than you have to. Chances are, you already know these things, but you may not know their names. We're basically going to deal with just clauses and phrases. +Clauses are parts of a sentence, not just the things that come back to kick you in the ass after you signed a contract or bought insurance. They don't always prance around with elves (though the one in this sentence does) either. A clause is a group of words that has a subject and a predicate. The subject is what the sentence is about and the predicate is what the sentence does. There are four classifications of clauses, but we won't get into those. What we will get into are the two types of clauses. Yes, there's a difference. Yes, it's probably pretty boring. There are two types of clauses, an independent or main clause and a dependent or subordinate clause. +An independent clause can stand alone all by itself. Here's an example: “The traffic stopped"". It has a subject, the traffic, and a predicate, stopped. More importantly it's a complete thought. The idea, notion, whatever is all there. +A dependent clause cannot stand on its own. It has a subject and a predicate, but it's not a stand-alone because the thought isn't complete. Here's an example: “When her skirt blew up"". No, really, that's not a complete sentence. Think about it for a minute. If that was all by itself, you'd be wondering what made her skirt blow up and what the writer meant by “when"". There's some missing information here. Put them together and you have a complete, compound sentence. The traffic stopped when her skirt blew up. +There are two quick ways to tell a dependent clause from a clause that's wearing the whole sentence bikini. One: look for a “time"" or “it depends"" word. When, after, sometimes, usually, if, because. Two: look for a gerund. A gerund is just a fancy word for a verb with an -ing whacked at the end. Looking, eating, smelling, seeing, being. All of that fun stuff. +Groups of words that seem to stand alone, but are missing either the subject or the predicate are called phrases. There are tons of these buggers in writing and they come in all shapes and sizes. The best way to recognize one is to look for a subject and a predicate. If one is missing, it's a phrase. +Well that was relatively painless. Or at least I thought so. C'mon, you can uncover your eyes now. + **** + **1\. The Period: (.)** +The period is the most common piece of punctuation you'll ever type. It's at the end of nearly ever sentence (except this one)! It also has a few more uses that might come in handy along the way. +The first thing is how to end a sentence. As you already may know, it goes at the end. Look at these sentences and you'll see the period in action. There is one point and it comes immediately after the letter preceding it. Then there is generally two spaces between the period and the sentence that comes after it. Sometimes there'll only be one space, but conventionally speaking, there are two. You'll notice that the first letter in the sentence following is capitalized. Easy enough. But to be a good Muffie, here are a few examples: +This is a sentence. There is a period at the end of this sentence, too. +The period also works in with things like abbreviations. This is where it gets slightly trickier. As with the sentence, the period follows immediately after the abbreviation and then a space before the next word in the sentence. That's a single space, not two. Here are a few examples to help you along: +Mrs. Robinson Dr. Pepper I live in the U.S.A., but I like the U.K. and U.S.S.R. in the summer. +Note: Acronyms, abbreviations that are pronounced as words, do not have periods. Here's a few examples: modem (Modulater/demodulater), SEAL (SEa, Air and Land), ASAP (as soon as possible). Certain abbreviations, such as RCMP and FBI frequently aren't seen sporting periods, either. +If the abbreviation comes at the end of a sentence, there's a bit of a problem. How many periods? One or two? Just one! The sentence ender is the ender of the abbr. Cool, huh? C'mon work with me here. Here's an example for you: +Jim wanted to be cool, but he's just an S.O.B. (Sue me, I couldn't think of anything else.) +Ah! Another one of those murky questions, you noticed. Where, exactly, does the period go when you've got things like parentheses in the way? I'll deal with punctuation with quotation marks in that section. +When dealing with parentheses, the punctuation depends on how the parentheses are placed in the sentence. If they're mixed in with the sentence (like this) then you keep all the punctuation outside of the parentheses (even at the end). If you put them around an entire sentence, you put the punctuation inside of the parentheses. (Kind of like this.) Here are a few examples: +My momma told me (you'd better wash your hands). (I'm not too keen on copyright violations.) +You may have noticed that in some stories, there are strings of periods throughout the text. There really is a punctuation mark that requires more than one period. It's commonly known as the ellipses, which is covered in Section 8. Ellipses. + **** + **2\. The Comma** +This is where things get complicated. Commas are used for so many things and you have to know some grammar. If you haven't already given it a once over, check Section 0. Grammar for a brief run-down of the grammar you'll need to know. + **A Dependent Clause Does the Independent Clause in the Conga Line.** +Sometimes they do that. What do I mean here? It's not self-explanatory? Great. Now I'm going to confuse everybody. In this case the dependent clause usually modifies the independent clause. That means that whatever the dependent clause is about, changes or explains the independent clause in some way. We call these adverbial dependent clauses, but you don't have to know that for the test. +Remember her skirt? And the traffic? When her skirt blew up, traffic stopped. Yep, that one! Traffic stopped is the independent clause. Yes, I know the other one has more words, but that doesn't matter. Traffic stopped tells you everything you need to know. However, the clause “When her skirt blew up"" makes it even better because it tells you why traffic stopped. It wasn't something you needed to know, but it did make things a bunch more interesting. Oh just admit it, we already know you've got a dirty mind. You're here, aren't you? +Here are some examples: +When he ran the stoplight, the nice officer pulled him over. If we ate lunch, I would still want dessert. While running around the desk, I thought about letting the boss catch me. + **Participial Phrases, Infinitives, and All That Jazz.** +The jazz has a better beat, but we still must deal with the other two. We use them all the time, you know. Most of us don't even realize they have names. Probably don't care, either. For the purposes of our discussion, an infinitive is just a phrase that has some form of “to be"" involved. There's more to it, but it's not necessary and would probably be really, well, dull. +A participial phrase is just one where a group of words showing action of some sort acts to describe something in the sentence. Like adverbials, these just really describe something about the rest of the sentence. When you use them, though, there should be a comma between the phrase and the clause. +Let's look at a pair of sentences. To have sex, you should probably be horny. Howling like a wolf at the moon, she had an orgasm. With these two sentences, you have a couple of independent clauses. “You should probably be horny"" and “she had an orgasm"". The first one has an infinitive phrase in the beginning, “to have sex"". You'll notice that it's a linking verb, or a form of the verb be. Conjugation isn't just another dirty word! The second one has a participial phrase, “howling like a wolf at the moon"". They both sort of describe the rest of the sentence; quite a bit actually, without being strictly necessary to the sentence. +Here are a few examples: +To be truly pretty, she should smile. To have a cookie, the dog has to sit up and beg first. Running through the trees naked, Jolene discovered she wasn't alone. Tracing patterns on her belly, Sam botched his third attempt at a marriage proposal. +Gawd, commas take forever. + **Parenthetical Expressions and You.** +What? Parenthetical and no parentheses? Yes, these things really do happen. A parenthetical expression is just a word or group of words that really don't have much to do with the sentence itself, but you think it's important to be there. There are actually three ways to set off a parenthetical expression and the comma is the most common. The other two are the parentheses, of course, covered in Section 9 and the dash, covered in Section 7. +Transitional words are the most common parentheticals. Therefore, however, moreover, too, consequently, you get the picture. They should be set off by commas. By this, I mean that a comma should happen before and after the parenthetical. This is, of course, the way it goes. Naturally, if the parenthetical comes at the beginning, you only use one comma. If the parenthetical comes at the end you only use one comma, of course. +Also is the exception. You don't set that off unless you want it to be strongly emphasized. Generally, though, it's in a funky position in the sentence if you do want it to be just that important. +Parenthetical phrases and clauses of other varieties are more difficult to pinpoint in discussion. The only real way to tell if the phrase is parenthetical is to remove it. If the sentence makes perfect sense without it, use some commas when you stick it in. +Here are some examples: +Of course, kids hate broccoli. She takes her clothes off, generally speaking, before bathing. My mother's favorite song, done by Englebert Humperdink in the 70's, puts me to sleep. He ripped her favorite panties, 2002 Victoria's Secret thongs, by accident. +When to use the comma v. the dash v. the parentheses? It's all a matter of degree and how many commas you've already used. If your sentence has commas in it already, use the dash for clarity. If the parenthetical phrase really disrupts the sentence, some do, use a dash. If the parenthetical phrase is a break in the action where the author speaks directly to reader, use parentheses. Why? Convention, mostly. It's what people are used to reading and it's the cues they're comfy with. + **Are You Appositive About That?** + An appositive is just another funky (we put the fun in funk!) word for adjectival phrase. Only more specific. An appositive basically just identifies another word. Huh? It tells the reader who or what you're talking about. For instance: Mary, Queen of Scots, was the bag lady I met on 7th street. The desk, the one my brother, the cheap bastard, gave me, fell apart. That's not too bad; it's almost like a parenthetical. Well it is, but it's a very special one. Let's have some examples! +The big “O"", PC for orgasm, is tons of fun to have. Kris Kringle, Santa Claus to some, didn't like my idea that being good is being naughty. + **The Word Series. Batter Up!** +Ah, familiar territory. A series of words, a list if you will. If you've got a list of words, you separate them with commas. Simple! But wait. Do you or don't you put a comma before the ""and""? Hang on while I get into my body armor, this is a total minefield to punctuationarians. The battles have been fierce and casualties have been heavy. Part of it depends on where you live. Most of it depends on what mood you're in when you learned this stuff. In my world, the comma always goes before the and in a list. In most places, you can get away with leaving it out. However, if you intend to write for publication, the best bet is to stick the comma in there. +Note: a list doesn't have to be just a list of things. It can be a list of activities, too. Even a list of what appear to be complete sentences (but aren't)! Here are a few examples: +She brought a dildo, some Astroglide, three cucumbers, hot sauce, and a camcorder. He took one look at her stuff, almost fainted, screamed like a little girl, and ran into the night. She chased him with the hot sauce, then ran back and got the Astroglide, finally caught up with him five blocks away, and beat him over the head with the dildo. + **Noun Modification, Does It Hurt?** +We modify nouns all the time in writing. We have to because plain nouns make you feel like you fell into a bad See Dick Fuck rerun. There's really only one way to modify a noun. No, you don't take it down to your local tattoo and piercing emporium. You use an adjective or an adjectival phrase. Why didn't I say that in the first place? Well, I don't really know. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Muff, we know how to use an adjective. What's that go to do with commas? I'm so glad you asked! +Sometimes we want to use more than one adjective to describe something. That dirty, rotten, no-good, piece of garbage dirtbag! She's got such a big, beautiful, large chest. It's a cedar chest, pervert. The reason why you have to put commas in there is to make sure that it's clear what word the adjective is supposed to be modifying. If you stick the commas in, you have a mini-list that all modifies the word at the end. If you don't, then the adjective modifies the word immediately following. Lemme guess, Whatchootalkin'bout, Muffis? +Let's look at two very similar examples. Bright, blue eyes. Bright blue eyes. They're the same words, but by whacking that comma in there, you've got two different meanings. No, really. In bright, blue eyes, both adjectives modify blue. She has bright eyes and blue eyes. In bright blue eyes, she just has eyes that are bright blue in color. Big difference. It's not that important in this example, but there are a lot of instances where it's imperative that you make sure you adjectives are modifying the correct word in the reader's mind. + **Safe Sex: Make That Compound Sentence Wear a Conjunction!** +When you want to mix it up in your paragraphs, you might stick two independent clauses, sentences, together as one. A little grammatical coitus. There's really two ways you can do that and only one of them involves a comma. You have to use a conjunction when you use a comma to separate two sentences. Why? Because you'll get a comma fault or comma splice error when you don't. In a human brain, no big, in a computer, watch it spit at you. Basically, the way it works is that you put in sentence one, the comma, the conjunction, and then sentence two. The most common conjunctions are and, but, and because. +So what's that in English? Well, it just says that if you want to stick two complete sentences together, you have to use a comma and a conjunction together. Let's take a not-so-quick look. Fred loved to eat grapes, but they gave him gas. Three really important things are happening here. Fred loved to eat grapes is a complete sentence. They gave him gas is, likewise, a complete sentence. Notice the comma and the but hooking them together. What if the second part wasn't a complete sentence? Then you don't need the comma, strictly speaking. Fred ate grapes every day but Tuesdays. +Some examples: +Josh ate most of the pizza, and he refused to chip in to pay for it. I usually go to the store once a week, but it was snowing so I stayed home. He likes to eat tuna fish sandwiches, because it reminds him of his ex- girlfriend. +Oh my. Could it be? Is it? I'm going to faint here. We've come to the official end of the comma section. I left some stuff out, mostly how to use commas when you're talking mailing addresses and you've got names backwards. Everyone's heard the line, “My name is Bond, James Bond"". Just go with the flow. +If none of this sinks in whatsoever, don't feel bad. Commas are the most difficult piece of punctuation to deal with and most of us do it wrong anyway. In some instances the line is fuzzy and in others it's all dependent on your region. However, there is one piece of advice that will almost always give you the correct answer. Read your sentence out loud; wherever you hear a pause, whack in a comma. Try it sometime. + **** + **3\. The Semi-Colon** +Yes, people actually use these things! They're not that difficult to get a grasp of, though putting them into practice takes a little bit of getting used to. After all, we normally just whack in a comma and call it good. Heck, even the best-seller list is chock full of people who put in a comma when they should be using a semi-colon. However, it's on your keyboard for a reason, and it's not to make programmers happy. Um, don't ask. +You will need a little bit of grammar to get the semi-colon thing. You'll find all you need to know in Section 0. Essential Grammar. Unless you're familiar with clauses already, take a quick look. It's not long or too terribly painful. I promise. +Basically, there are three places you use a semi-colon. In sentences that are already full of commas, between independent clauses with no conjunction, and in places where you'd normally use a comma, but just don't want to. +The first one is easy enough. Sometimes we makes lists in a sentence where some or all of the listed things have more than one part. You have to separate those parts with a comma. As you can imagine, using commas to separate the list itself gets confusing. What's a part of the list? What's not? Well, in those instances, just use the commas to separate the parts of one item and a semi-colon to separate the list. Sometimes you'll have two independent clauses put together with the comma and conjunction, but you have commas in the clauses themselves. Use the semi-colon to separate the clauses instead of the comma. Generally speaking, when you have too many commas, put the semi-colon where the main or primary uses of the comma would be and leave the commas for the secondary parts of the sentence. Here's an example or two: +The elected officers were Mr. Thomas, President; Mrs. Mason, Vice-President; Mr. Jones, Treasurer; and Mr. Smith, Secretary. She bought a movie, The Dirty Dozen; three apples, Johngold; and a pizza, frozen. Sam, the bartender, loved to drink beer; but his boss, Sammy “the Blade"" Zymbowski, frowned on that during working hours +Jim, the Captain of the Enterprise, usually fell in love with an alien princess; and, by the end of the show, she usually tried to kill him. +When you've got two independent clauses whacked together in one sentence without a conjunction, most people will make the mistake of using a comma. I'm terribly fond of that error, myself. Sometimes, in prose, we just don't want the conjunction in there because it doesn't give the sentence the right feel or sound. Commonly and wrongly, a writer will just forgo the conjunction and stick in a period. Wrong-o. Use the semi-colon. It stands in for and, but, therefore, or, and whatnot. Here's a few examples to sink your teeth into: +He drove right into the tree; the tree won. Sandra loved to orgasm; unfortunately for her man, she loved to orgasm with Sue. Mack was often confused with a truck; the truck generally knew what was going on. +Finally, you can use the semi-colon just because you don't want to use the comma. Why on earth would we want to do that? Sometimes you just want to stick a pause in the sentence that's a breath longer than a comma, but shorter than a period. A semi-colon will do that for you. Most people, well, they just don't. + **** + **4\. The Question Mark and Exclamation Point** +These two are really pretty self-explanatory. If you have a sentence that's a question, you whack a question mark at the end instead of a period and call it good. If it's got some exclamatory zing to it, you use the exclamation point. But what if you've got a few questions in one sentence? What if you've got a sentence that's really, really strong? Like someone's orgasming? Well, in porno we frequently see these two marks highly misused. Hence, the subject heading. +A question mark doesn't necessarily mean that the sentence is over. Some sentences question multiple things, and in those instances, you can use a question mark after each one. This particular rule is pretty handy when you have to deal with quotation marks. You don't see this very often outside of quotation marks, but you can do it. Here's an example to illustrate: +What does she prefer, anal? oral? regular? +One thing to remember with question marks and exclamation points is that you only use one with each sentence. A question mark and an exclamation point is just a cue to the reader, it does _not_ describe what's happening. “She ate what??????"" has the same meaning as “She ate what?"" “He came!!!!!!!!!!"" has the exact same implication as “He came!"" Multiple question marks and exclamation points are the hallmark of an amateur writer, and you will not find a market that will accept them. Next time you're reading something you paid for, take a look. One question mark or exclamation point per person! If the extra emphasis is that necessary, use words to describe it, not punctuation. + **** + **5\. Quotation Marks** +There are two uses of the quotation marks: direct quotation and indirect quotation. There are also two types of marks used to demarcate quotations: single quotation marks and quotation marks. Finally, there are some conventions regarding the use of other punctuation with quotation marks. +What qualifies as quotation marks depends on where in the world you learned English. There are two correct marks. The American version, the double quotations marks, and the British version, the single quotation marks. Which version you use depends on which language set you're using. If you use double quotations marks, do not use British spelling. If you use single quotation marks, do not use American spelling. The key here is to keep the document consistent. In places like Literotica, you don't have to worry about which standard to use since they happily accept both. However, if you intend to write for something else, you must verify the writer's guidelines prior to submission. +Note: Most languages have their own conventions for marking quotations. They usually aren't quotation marks. Some of the English writers will maintain their native punctuation when writing in English. They will use things like a hyphen (-) or double angle brackets (<<>>). This is incorrect and if you're a non-native English writer, you should restrain yourself. Each language has its own unique cues to the reader and clarity is the issue. You want to maintain clarity when you write so you may be understood. That means using English standard punctuation when writing in English. +A direct quotation is what you'll find most often in fiction writing, or in the writing around here. You're directly quoting your characters' speech. Nothing too fancy with that, you just stick the quotation marks around the speech. +""Hello, Sam."" “Hi, Judy."" ‘What's happening?' ‘Nothing much.' +Notes: You always capitalize the first word of the direct quotation, no matter where it falls in the sentence. +And indirect quotation is where you don't actually come right and quote, exactly. You can use the exact words; but if you refer to the speech rather than use the speech, then you aren't quoting it. It's difficult to explain, but indirect quotes are normally preceded by the word that. He said that time is money. He asked us where he could find the bakery. He told the dog to stay put. Don't use quotation marks. You'll notice that in two of the examples, “he asked us"" and “he told the dog"", that I used attributives—said words. This would ordinarily mean that you use quotation marks. How is this different? These examples are indirect quotations because the object of the attributive (verb) isn't the quotation; it's something else. He said, “Run along."" He told us to run along. Same thing, sort of. In the first, “Run along"" is the object of the verb. In the second, run along, is the object of a preposition, to. The object of told, the attributive, is us. +How do you use quotation marks when there's more to the sentence than just the quote? What about question marks? Good questions! First, let's talk about a sentence where some of the words are inside quotations marks and some are outside of the marks. The most common is a quotation with an attributive. Unless the quotation is a question or exclamation, you will always end it with a comma. It does not matter if it's the end of the quoted speech or not, you will still use a comma. You will put the period at the end of the sentence itself. Also, you will not capitalize the words that follow the quoted speech within the sentence. You will capitalize the first word of the quotation no matter where it falls in the sentence, but not the other way around. This is not true of the question mark or the exclamation point, but more on that in a moment. Here are some examples for you: +“Come here,"" he said. “No,"" she replied. “Why,"" he asked, “not?"" ‘Because,"" she explained, “I don't want to.' He snapped, “Oh, just do it."" She said, “I will not."" + Note the positions of the commas in both types of examples. The comma comes between the quotation and the rest of the sentence. +What about question marks and exclamation points? These are a bit different. When you pose a question in a quotation, you end that quotation with a question mark; don't capitalize anything in the sentence that follows, and end the sentence with a period. The exclamation is the same. If the quotation is at the end of the sentence, you put a comma between it and the rest of the sentence and end the entire thing with a question mark, quotation marks on the outside. Confused? Here are a few examples to show the way: +'How much for a blowjob?' he asked. She replied, ‘Twenty bucks okay?' “Twenty!"" he screamed. She yelled, “Go beat off then!"" +Sometimes we have quotations that aren't speech. We quote the names of titles, or we have words that you are referring to, but not indirectly quoting. Sometimes, we put slang into quotation marks. When using these types of quotations, you should not use commas. Here's some examples to help you out: +I just read “The Oxford Companion to the English Language"" an hour ago. Did he just say “Nice shoes, wanna fuck"" to me? Yesterday, she told me to ‘take a hike'. People often misspell ‘pastime'. +The last examples bring up a sticky situation, don't they? Where do you put other punctuation in these instances? Outside of the quotation marks. It doesn't matter what sort or where these quoted phrases are placed in the sentence, the additional punctuation goes outside of the quotation marks. In America, however, it has become somewhat acceptable to put the punctuation inside of the quotation marks. It's not strictly correct, but it's in popular usage. Just look in the dictionary, you'll find “ain't"" is in there, too. Outside of America, this is utterly incorrect. + **** + **6\. Apostrophes** +You use apostrophes for two things, possessives and contractions. If you've got either of these things, there is going to be an apostrophe around somewhere. Well, except in a couple of cases. +Possessives are nouns that possess something. If Mike has a ball, you can have Mike possess the ball simply by saying “Mike's ball"". Now if Phyllis owns the ball, it's a little bit different. Phyllis can possess the ball in two ways, both are correct. It can be “Phyllis's ball"" or it can be “Phyllis' ball"". It all depends on how you want to say it. +Now, if you have several somethings that are in possession, then the rules alter lightly. If the Johnsons own the ball, then it's “the Johnsons' ball"". It can never be “the Johnsons's ball"". Plural possessives will always have a single apostrophe at the end of the plural. The horses' hay. The cows' fodder. The farmers' meeting. Why not the farmers's meeting like Phyllis got to do? Because it sounds silly. Say it out loud. You actually couldn't say Phyllis's a while ago, but that's changed in the past few years. +Contractions are simple enough. As speakers, we slur everything. We don't say “do not"" when we can say “don't"". The apostrophe goes wherever you omitted letters. In don't, you can see the “o"" was omitted and an apostrophe was put in its place. You'll notice that there is no spacing between the letters and the apostrophe. +Special cases: +Some possessives and contractions are backwards. It's hard to keep up, but these are generally pronouns. Take the word “it"" for example. ""It's"" is actually “it is"". ""Its"" is the possessive. Backwards, huh? ""Who's"" is who is and whose is possessive. If there are any other cases beyond the pronoun world where this is true, I can't remember them at the moment. Generally speaking, if the pronoun's possessive doesn't have its own unique spelling, e.g. theirs, his, hers, then it will have no apostrophe. +What about slurring with regular nouns? What if the author was slurring “The farmer is young"" into “The farmer's young""? Well, then slur it just like you would anything else. Put in an apostrophe. Do not use this in the narrative. The only place where you'd find this acceptable is within quotations where the speaker is speaking phonetically. + **** + **7\. The Dash** +The dash is one of my favorite pieces of punctuation—though I didn't use it very often here. A dash indicates an abrupt change of thought—which I do with astonishing frequency. It also indicates, in quotations, an abrupt end to the speech. One way to think of it is that it highlights parenthetical phrases, just like the comma does. +A parenthetical expression is just a word or group of words that really don't have much to do with the sentence itself, but you think it's important to be there. Parenthetical phrases and clauses of other varieties are more difficult to pinpoint in discussion. The only real way to tell if the phrase is parenthetical is to remove it. If the sentence makes perfect sense without it, use some dashes when you stick it in. Yeah, I ripped it straight from the comma section. Here are a few examples to help you out: +I ran straight for the door—ran right into it, actually—to escape my boss. How many times do I have to tell you—thirty-nine at last count—that I'm busy! +How can you tell when to use a dash instead of a comma? It's basically a matter of degree and a matter of flow. A dash indicates a high level of disruption. It actually stops the reader's eye for a moment because it's such an unusual piece of punctuation. If the parenthetical is very special or it has very little to do with the sentence, then use the dash. If you're doing an aside and speaking directly to the reader as the writer, use parentheses (covered in Section. 9). All others, “soft"" parenthetical phrases, use commas. +Sometimes one of your characters is going to get cut off abruptly in mid- sentence or mid-word. How to punctuate? Use the dash! Just lop off whatever you don't need, stick in a dash, add the quotation marks, and you're good to go. You don't even have to explain that it was lopped off because we already know. Here are some examples: +""John, I think that—"" “Let's go have some dinner, Marsha."" “I don't want—"" “I think Italian."" “Quit interrupting me!"" +How to use the dash: Dashes aren't hyphens. They're actually one long line or two hyphens typed closely together. Most word processors will automatically convert two hyphens to dashes for you, however, when you put these into most web pages, the dashes will be converted to hyphens again. To solve that problem, you have to go through and verify that your dashes are two hyphens or use the HTML character entity for the dash. You'll also notice, in the examples, that there were no spaces between the dash and the letters surrounding it. + **** + **8\. The Ellipses** +What are ellipses marks? They are three periods in a row with spaces between. (. . .) Ellipses get their name from the word elliptical. They indicate that something has been omitted or removed. You frequently see these or strings of periods resembling these in the stories on the site. These strings of periods are neither proper punctuation nor proper grammar. There is a common misconception that strings of periods bring some sort of tone to the story, breathiness, slower cadence, whatever. This is actually not so. The conventions for these marks are well respected in most writing so the reader does not have an instinctive cue about how to take a bunch of periods in the middle of prose. Ellipses are not used in conventional narrative, only within quotations. +Ellipses are used in two ways: one, to indicate an omission in a quotation, and two, to indicate that a character's speech has been cut off, but not abruptly. Faded out, as it were, with some words omitted. +When you want to quote someone, but you don't want to stick in everything they said (cause sometimes they do ramble on), you can remove those words and replace them with ellipses. If the ellipses happen in the beginning or the middle of a sentence, then there are three dots with a space between each and after the last. If they happen at the end of the sentence, then you have three dots with a space between and after the last, then closing punctuation, usually a period. (. . . .) or (. . . ?) or (. . . ,) or (. . . !) There are no more or less than three dots in the ellipses, unless the final punctuation is a period. How does this work? Let's take a few famous quotes and chop them down: +""Four score and seven years ago. . . shall not perish from the earth."" -Lincoln “Madam, if you. . . I would drink it."" -Churchill “I like Mr. Gorbachev. . . ."" -Thatcher +Stories generally don't contain a lot of quotes from other people. Normally, they just have characters speaking. Sometimes the characters don't finish whatever it is they're saying. They don't really end the sentence, so you can't put in final punctuation and they don't cut off abruptly so a dash is out of the question. Since their words have been _omitted_ you can use the ellipses. Here's how that works: +“Oh, John. . . ."" “Marsha, I. . . ."" “John. . . ?"" +A quick recap. There are only three, spaced dots in the ellipses. Everything else is wrong. You use ellipses only to indicate omission. Everything else is wrong. If the omission is at the end of the sentence, you use whatever final punctuation is necessary for the sentence. + **** + **9\. Other punctuation** +There are four pieces of punctuation that won't take a lot of time and you really won't see in your writing very often. Or anyone else's if you're lucky. The hyphen (-), the parentheses ( ), the ampersand (&) and the colon (:). + **Hyphens** +They're used for two things. One is to cut a word off at the end of a line. This was done mostly back when people used typewriters and didn't have to deal with transferring a document from one application to another. Don't do this unless you're putting it on paper directly from your word-processor. Why not? Lines break at different locations depending on what your document is being opened with. 12 point Times New Roman breaks differently on Word 2000 than 12 point Times New Roman breaks in Wordpad. It doesn't break at all in Notepad. Going from a word processor to a webpage? Just don't do it. The other is to hook up a set of words that you're using as a single word. People do that? Get out of town, Muff! No, really, they do that. Here are some examples: +I put on my meeting-my-mother-in-law-just-ate-prunes face for the boss. My father-in-law was a no-good, born-again, son-of-a-bitch, but I loved him. Hey, good-looking! + **Parentheses** +Sometimes you just want to say something parenthetical when you're writing. You've got a few choices, the comma and the dash are two. The parentheses, naturally, are an option. You can use them any time you stick some words in the sentence that disrupt it or are an abrupt change in idea. Conventionally, people use the parentheses to indicate an aside, that is, a spot in the prose where the author speaks directly to the reader. You don't have to do this, there's no rule about it; it's just what people have taken to doing frequently enough to make it seem normal to the reader. If you're punctuating with parentheses, the final punctuation goes on the outside when they occur within a sentence and on the inside when they occur around an entire sentence. Take a look at these examples: +I dearly love my mother-in-law (she's such a bitch). Dick slapped Jane before she could swing the bat. (You can tell these two love each other.) + **Ampersand** +It's a funny thing. Unless you're having some severely informal communication between close friends or you're writing poetry, don't use it. An ampersand is unusual enough in informal writing that sticking it in there will jar your reader. That's the last thing you want. Anything that calls attention to itself is bad. If you're writing for more than one reader, don't use ampersands. Don't use the @ symbol for at. Don't use shorthanded cuts like u instead of you. It's sloppy writing and it's going to get you taken less seriously. Is there a correct way to use an ampersand? Just replace any and you find. It's interchangeable with the word, but, please, restrain yourself. And has just one more keystroke, you know? + **Colon** +This is another piece of punctuation that you just don't see that much. Generally you use it in front of a list of things or details. It's the strongest break that you can put into a sentence without using a period. Most of us don't even use semi-colons with any degree of regularity (I am trying really, really, _really_ hard to not use any colostomy bag references and this is just not helping) let alone a whole colon. So, how do you use it? Whenever you're going to make a list of things. Here are a few examples (starting with this one): +The shopping list included: bread, butter, pickles, cucumbers, condoms, and KY. Jim won the following awards: Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Key Grip. + In conclusion, punctuation is your friend. It's purpose it to cue the reader into how the sentence is supposed to be read. We have “rules"" so that it's standardized across the board and when I use a period, you know what it's supposed to mean. Punctuation has one purpose and one purpose only, to make sure that what I write is clear to whoever reads it. It's not that hard when you get used to it, and the best way to learn it is just by reading! I mean stuff that's been run through punctuation freaks. We call them editors. Next time you pick up a magazine or a book, take a few moments to examine the punctuation. Don't worry about memorizing it; you'll remember it.

I started reading and collecting it about seven years ago and have amassed an enormous collection since. The 'smut files', as one of my friends affectionately calls my collection, is proudly housed on 3, floor to ceiling bookshelves in my living room, not hidden away in boxes under the bed, as my poor mother prays for daily. I've catalogued my collection and submitted it along with the list of my jewelry and other valuables for my home owners insurance. My State Farm agent got a good chuckle out of it, but he added my books to my policy and reminded me to let him know if the value of my collection goes up another $1,000.00. I could probably sell my erotica collection and buy a small car! It's my one vice, but since I'm in the middle of planning a 200 guest wedding, and trying to appease my boyfriend, I've put myself on a book budget. When I've reached my book buying limit for the month, I turn to Literotica. +I share my books with my boyfriend and my friends, so they are stored on carefully labeled shelves. If I'm in the mood for Bi, BDSM, Gay male, Hentai, Romance, or whatever, I can go to the bookshelf, pull down a book from a particular section and know what I'll be reading. The love of my life is only into girl on guy action, it can be 7 guys with 1 girl, but the 1st trace of homosexuality totally kills it for him. He however absolutely loves that I have no taboos and will read anything printed about sex. He knows where the stories he likes to read are kept and only gets books from those shelves. My book system is fool proof; even my friends know where to find the books they want to borrow because the shelves are clearly labeled. They know that pulling something from the 'Gay Romance' shelf will get them a book about gay lovers. +I've been a fan of Literotica for about 5 years and I absolutely love this site for its user friendly index. If I'm in the mood for Incest, I simply click the index and I'm taken to a list of Incest stories. But Literotica goes a step further; they actually add a synopsis of each story making it unbelievably easy for me to choose if I want my incest story to be about a mom and son, or about a two brothers. I've also found that the synopsis is not always necessary because the titles of some stories clearly state what the subject matter will be. If the category, synopsis, or title don't make it clear what the story will be about, some authors add a very detailed disclaimer in which they let readers know what to expect in the story. +Unfortunately, even with all these preliminaries, some Literotica readers just can't seem to get it. Why read an interracial story, and then leave racist comments? Why read a gay story and leave derogatory gay comments? If my boyfriend ever read something from my 'Gay Romance' shelf and made a negative gay comment, I'd just asking him if it was misfiled, if not I'd then ask why the hell he read it when he knew what the book was about. My next question to him would be the one I'd love to ask some Literotica readers; why deliberately read something you are ""opposed"" to, only to turn around and leave nasty comments? +I'm all for leaving feedback, if that feedback is constructive. I'm a math science person who would much rather be in a lab than writing an essay, so I'm sure the English and grammar people are going find all the errors I've made in this submission. If I felt qualified to give constructive feedback on grammar, I'd definitely do it. However, I've found that despite the problems with the structure of their stories, most authors are able to deliver on the content promised in the category, title, and synopsis. By all means comment about structure, grammar, character development, and all the other thing real writers know about, (again, I only read this stuff, I'm not a writer). But calling the writer a ""disgusting fag"" because you read their gay story is totally uncalled for. +The publishers of the last 2 erotic novels I've purchased have placed a warning on the back of their books that say "" WARNING! This is a REALLY HOT book. (Sexually Explicit)"". Nothing in that warning, the cover photos, or even the story titles prepares readers for the fact that the books contain everything from bisexual orgies to bestiality. Literotica has made their story index completely idiot proof, so it is inexcusably idiotic to bypass the many hints to the subject of a story, read it, then turn around and bash both the story and the author.

Don't read on unless you've already read the 'Virginiaverse.' (Or you're one of those who read the ending first to see if you want to read it from the beginning). +First, let me tell you about myself. 'Your Silver Night and Golden Days' was the first story I had written since my last college English class back in 1973. That's not to say that I haven't written anything in the past 47 or so years. I have written hundreds of technical white papers, policies, procedures, and decision trees. I've also had a hand in writing international and US software standards (notably ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207 and the US implementation of this standard). So I'm no stranger to writing, just not writing stories (although a few of my colleagues would jape that some of my white papers were pretty good 'stories'). I have also written several hundred thousand lines of Java, JavaScript, and HTML code. I believe this experience helps me build my stories to interact with each other. +I started reading BrokenSpokes' ""Hard Landing"" series here on Literotica. I realized that I had stories about my experiences while serving in the Air Force (and afterward) that I could write about. Being a lesbian during the late '70s through the late '90s when homosexuality was illegal in the armed forces was not a fun time. So, I started putting down my thoughts on how I would present my story. I finally decided to write it in the form of an erotic 'Love' story. This story would tell how two women, who had suffered tragedies in their lives, met and fell in love. I would have to tell the stories of their tragedies and the events that led to the two women meeting and falling in love. One of the women would be an officer in the USAF. We would follow the trials and travails she suffered while having a lesbian relationship. +Then, I needed to determine how I would present the story. I first started blocking it out as one big story. However, I realized that that would soon become a non-starter, or more correctly, a non-finisher. I do have the bad habit of starting projects and not completing them. I would work the projects to the point where I can see a clear path to the finish and then lose interest in finishing them. Of course, work-related tasks had to be completed if I wanted to keep my job. +So I decided to break the project into sub-units and go from there. In this way, I would publish the story a piece at a time and hope that my readers' encouragement would keep me going and finish it. Then, I needed to decide whether to start with the beginning and work my way to the end or mix it up. I decided to start in the middle and then work my way backward or forward, depending on my mood at the time. Thus I began with the story of how Virginia met Bonnie. +When I started this project, I had no idea if I could write good stories, let alone love stories. However, the reception of my first submission showed me that I had promise. So I forged ahead and finished 'Your Silver Night and Golden Days,' which told the story of Virginia's relationship with Bonnie. +Once I finished 'Your Silver Night and Golden Days,' I decided to write ""Throwin' Pennies in the Bay."" This story would explain Virginia's rationale to justify risking her career to have a relationship with Bonnie. I also touched on this in my side story, ""The Ring,"" where Virginia expressed regret that she had ended her relationship with Alex rather than taking a chance with it. I had written this side story for the 2020 ""On the Job"" writer's challenge. I used this as a vehicle to give more background on why Virginia bought the commitment rings for her and Bonnie's first Christmas. +While writing ""Throwin' Pennies in the Bay,"" I wrote the short side story, ""The Gift."" This came to me in the middle of the night, and I got up and wrote it and submitted it all within 12 hours. This story introduces two characters that will play a role later in the arc. It would be the first story that showed Bonnie from a PoV other than Virginia's. I had felt bad that Bonnie's role was over so soon, and I guess this was what spurred my subconscious to come up with this story. +I also wrote the side story ""The Ring"" in this timeframe. I wrote this story for the 2020 ""On the Job"" challenge. I used it to show that Virginia had regretted breaking off the relationship with Alex and some of the rationale that she used to justify risking a relationship with Bonnie. +Then I started on ""Tomorrow is Promised,"" which details the events leading to Virginia meeting Judy. I debated whether to do this now or wait until I finished ""Lady of the Lamp,"" which described Judy's relationship with Jon. However, not being familiar enough with heterosexual relationships, I felt more comfortable continuing with the lesbian aspects of the arc. The readers also expressed an interest in what happened with Alex, so I decided to include her story in ""Tomorrow is Promised."" +Originally, Alex was only intended to be a plot device to show that a connection existed between Judy and Virginia long before they met each other. However, as I got into ""Throwin' Pennies in the Bay,"" I realized that I was writing Alex as myself, and Alex was just as real as Virginia and Judy. Thus my decision to include Alex in ""Tomorrow is Promised"" and catch her story up with Virginia's and Judy's story. Interestingly enough, one of the comments I got on this story basically predicted where the plot would go later. I was amazed at how close they were to the planned ""Like Butter on a Summer Day"" that hadn't been written yet. It's nice to know that the reader got into the characters enough to care where they were going in the future. +As I was writing the story ""Tomorrow is Promised,"" I realized that I needed a little more background material on Grace and her relationship with Kathy. Thus I wrote the side story ""Saving Grace."" This story gave some background on Grace's and Kathy's relationship. It also provided additional background on Bonnie. We find out how she came to embrace having a lesbian relationship with Virginia, despite having been married to a man and giving birth to two boys. +""Tomorrow is Promised"" was written from each woman's PoV. Thus the three parts would be written in parallel as a literary triptych. This story again reinforces the fact that Alex was a connection between Virginia and Judy. It also introduces Megan, who has a relationship with all three women; first with Judy (as a friend), then with Alex (as a friend and potential lover), and then Virginia (as lovers). While all three parts are parallel, they don't all start or stop in the same time frame. The significance of this will become apparent in ""Promises Made and Promises Kept."" +Part Three of ""Tomorrow is Promised"" brings Judy and Virginia face-to-face for the first time (although they had seen each other in Part One in passing). There is a connection detected between the two. An interview takes place for a position at Raytheon, where Judy works. Virginia shows up as one of the applicants. During the interview, both women feel a connection, although we only see Judy's side of it at this time. +Once I had finished ""Tomorrow is Promised,"" I had a choice to make. I could either write Judy's story in ""Lady of the Lamp"" or finish Virginia's story in ""Promises Made and Promises Kept."" I decided to go ahead and finish Virginia's story before I wrote Judy's story. As I was writing ""Promises Made and Promises Kept,"" I realized that I would need to finish Alex's story. This would be covered in ""Like Butter on a Summer Day."" +""Promises Made and Promises Kept"" was going to be different because I was going to tell the final chapter of the story from both Virginia's and Judy's PoV. Since I didn't want to break up each chapter alternating between PoVs, I wrote each part from a different PoV. I didn't want consecutive parts to repeat the same story, so I offset them. In that way, each chapter started by revisiting what had happened in the last half of the previous chapter. Then the second half of each chapter would cover new territory. Because of this, I wrote Virginia's PoV by picking up where ""Tomorrow is Promised Pt. 01"" left off. Also, I could start ""Promises Made and Promises Kept Pt. 02,"" which was from Judy's PoV, from where ""Tomorrow is Promised Pt. 03"" left off. +As I was writing ""Promises Made and Promises Kept Pt. 05,"" I realized that there was a promise that was still not kept. This promise is the promise Bonnie made to Virginia. As I thought about that, a story idea came to me that would fill the bill nicely. Thus ""What Dreams May Come"" was written. This was a departure from all of my other stories in that it was not erotic. Still, it became apparent that the main character was a lesbian. The story is published in the 'Non-Erotic' category. +I had planned to write a side story for the 2020 Winter Holidays Contest. This fit in nicely because I planned to have ""Promises Made and Promises Kept"" done in time to write the side story and enter it in the contest. Unfortunately, ""Promises Made and Promises Kept"" took longer than I had planned to complete. It was challenging to write it because I was alternating between Virginia's and Judy's PoV and fighting my inclination to not finish things. +However, I persevered and finished ""Promises Made and Promises Kept."" Once I missed the deadline for entering ""A Chance Encounter"" in the 2020 Winter Holidays contest, I decided to add a vignette to the story. I waffled on this because I didn't want the readers to think I thought they weren't smart enough to get the significance of the meeting depicted in the story. In the end, I went with it because I felt the readers would want to know if Judy ever told Virginia about her meeting with Bonnie. The comments I received validated my decision. +Once I finished 'A Chance Encounter,' I decided that Alex's story needed to be completed, so I wrote 'Like Butter on a Summer Day.' It was initially intended to be a one-part story, but as I got into it, there was so much story that it grew too large, so I split it into two parts. The first part of 'Like Butter on a Summer Day' caught Alex's life up to where she met with Virginia and Judy in Dayton, OH, and found out where Megan was. The second part followed Alex as she found Megan and the two falling in love and getting together. Up to this point, I think most of my readers were okay with the storyline. However, I added an epilogue that implied that when Alex, Megan, Judy, and Virginia got together in the cabin in Gatlinburg, that they swapped partners while there. In 'Promises Made and Promises Kept Pt. 05', I had written that they got together in the cabin every year from 1998 until the present. +At no time did I intend to imply that there were orgies or group sex. I thought that four beautiful, strong women in two strong, loving relationships would be amenable to swapping partners from time to time. After all, Virginia had had a sexual relationship with Alex and Megan before getting together with Judy. Alex had had a sexual relationship with both Virginia and Judy before getting together with Megan. Megan and Judy had known each other and had acknowledged that they had had a sexual attraction to each other. They would have indulged in a relationship except that Judy was married to Jon at the time and wanted to remain faithful to him. Megan wouldn't cross that line either. It stands to reason that Alex and Virginia were confident enough in their relationships to let Judy and Megan indulge in their desire for each other. +While I was writing 'Like Butter on a Summer Day,' I kept thinking back to 'What Dreams May Come.' If what I had posited in that story was true, then premonitions and 'Deja Vous' could be accounted for and may even be possible. After all, time flows both ways with equal relevance in the quantum world, so it would be possible to remember things that hadn't happened yet. This gave me the idea for 'And The Grass Won't Pay No Mind.' That, and the lyrics to the song by the same title sang by Neil Diamond (actually, he wrote it for Elvis Presley, but I like Neil's version better). +From the start of my writing the main arc of the Virginiaverse, I wanted to tell Bonnie's story from her PoV. I needed to make sure that the backstory was completed enough before I dared try it. 'And the Grass Won't Pay No Mind' is part of a three-part story about Bonnie. Unlike my other multipart stories, each of these three parts will be stand-alone stories with different titles. Also, I didn't write them in the order they should be read. +'And the Grass Won't Pay No Mind' is the middle story of the trilogy. It explores how Bonnie handled herself after having dreams that she was not long for the world and how she desperately tried to prepare everyone for what was coming. While nothing terrible happens in this story, there is a foreshadowing of what is to come. The title is a Neil Diamond song that inspired part of the plot. +The first part of the trilogy, 'If I Never Knew Your Name,' gives background on Bonnie's life in flashbacks. We find out what leads Bonnie to accept and even pursue a lesbian relationship with Virginia even though she had been married and had two children. As much as Bonnie wants a relationship, she's more concerned about how Virginia accepts her two boys, Matthew and Mark, and vice versa. Through flashbacks, we find out that once Bonnie realizes that she could fall in love with another woman, she actively pursues Virginia. Bonnie is not a passive participant in the seduction leading up to the first date. This story, just like the other two in the trilogy, is titled for a Neil Diamond song that inspired me to write this story as I did. +The third part of the trilogy, 'Done Too Soon,' was the most challenging part to write, and I hope I did it justice. This story covers how Bonnie accepts that she will die and how she handles it through her interactions with her loved ones. Again, the title is based on a Neil Diamond song that I had already mentioned in the Afterword of 'Your Silver Night and Golden Days Pt. 05.' I came across a song titled ""See the Sun"" by Dido that I thought complimented this story perfectly. I put a link to it on my Bio page. You really should listen to the song to get you in the mood for reading this story. +After several months of starting but not finishing several stories due to my not being on the same page as my Muse, I finally started a story that I knew I could finish. It is a side story that will be presented in several parts, titled ""Receiving Grace."" Here I wanted to tell more of the story about Grace and Kathy, teasing a reveal of what occurred that caused Grace to break off with Kathy and get with John Steiner in Pt. 01. This resulted in Bonnie being born. By then, Grace and Kathy had reconciled and spent the rest of their lives together as lovers, not living together again until they were 64 years old. Part 01 starts by recounting Grace and Kathy's road trip in 1965. At the same time, the events leading up to Kathy's accident, which prevented her from being with Grace while Bonnie was dying, are also revealed. I hope to finish this story in two parts, but it may take three parts if needed. +As I've said earlier, I'm not finished writing stories in the 'Virginiaverse.' I still have two more main arc stories, ""No More Perfect Kisses"" and ""Lady of the Lamp,"" to write. I also have roughed out several more side stories that I'll be writing someday. +Note that throughout my stories centered on the beach cities in southern California, I keep mentioning that the weather is 72 degrees and sunny. This is a running joke that I use to pay homage to the movie ""LA Story"" starring Steve Martin, who plays a weatherman. Every weather report is sunny and 72 degrees, so he does wacky things to make the weather report less boring. This was filmed in the LA area in the late '80s. It gives a humorous view of what life was like in the LA area when I was stationed at LAAFB. I hope it is evident from my writings that I really enjoyed my time there. If you ever get a chance, watch this movie. It is funny and poignant at the same time. I watch it whenever I get nostalgic about my time there. And yes, whenever there was an earthquake (at least three or four times a year), we would sit around and try to guess the magnitude as we were bouncing around in our chairs. Whoever got the closest would win the pot that we'd all throw a dollar into after an earthquake. +If you are interested in seeing some of the locations described in my stories, Google Maps can take you there. You can go to the street view. For example, you can stand at the end of the pier at Manhattan Beach and see a 360-degree view of the Roundhouse and Manhattan Beach from the ocean. You can visit Pollywog Park and many other locations mentioned in my stories. Keep in mind that what you see is what exists now and may not look like it did back in the late '80s and early '90s. Thus, you can find The Cheesecake Factory that my characters frequent, but the Marie Callender's and Jack's Salad Bar and Grill are no more. +If you are interested in a visual of Virginia, watch the movie 'Contact' starring Jodie Foster as Dr. Jane Arroway. Add about 6 inches to the length of her hair and make her eyes a couple of shades bluer, and you have Virginia. She was always intense like Jodie Foster portrayed Dr. Jane Arroway's character in the movie. She wasn't afraid to confront people when she was right and they were wrong. +Specific Notes on each story: +Main Arc Stories: + **No More Perfect Kisses** \- This story will be written from Virginia's PoV and explores her first Sapphic relationship when she was a college senior. The title is derived from the lyrics of the song ""Samantha's Song"" by Super American. NOTE: This story still needs to be written and will be published under the Lesbian Sex category. + **Lady of the Lamp** \- This story will be written from Judy's PoV. Judy's story starts after her first lesbian affair in college to finding the love of her life, Jon, and marrying him. They love each other very much and have two lovely daughters, Amy and Emily. Judy occasionally has Sapphic thoughts about other women. Still, she never follows through with them. Instead, she took those feelings and focused them on her sexual relationship with Jon. Then, Jon is killed, and Judy is devastated. The title is derived from the lyrics to the song ""Judy"" by Stephen Stills. NOTE: This story still needs to be written and will be published under the Romance category. + **Throwin' Pennies in the Bay** \- This story is written from Alex's PoV and details her affair with Virginia. Alex reflects back on her affair with Judy as she pursues a romantic relationship with Virginia. This story details how difficult it is to be a lesbian while serving in the USAF. The title is derived from the lyrics to the song ""Alexis"" by James Gang. + **Part One** is about her seduction of Virginia while reflecting on her affair with Judy in college. NOTE: The book 'No Adam for Eve' by John Dexter mentioned in this story is an actual book published in the '60s. The author using the pseudonym 'John Dexter' was none other than Marion Zimmer Bradley, who went on to fame as the author of 'The Mists of Avalon.' + **Part Two** is about the trials and tribulations of the relationship. It ends up with Virginia walking away from Alex. At the same time, Alex reflects back on Judy having walked away from her in college. + **Your Silver Nights and Golden Days** \- This story is written from Virginia's PoV and introduces Bonnie. This story goes into Virginia's relationship with Bonnie, a divorced mother of two boys. This story details the trials and tribulations of being in a lesbian relationship and how it leaves you in legal limbo with the people you love. The title is derived from the lyrics to the song ""Bonnie"" by Supertramp. + **NOTE: This was my first submission. Part One** is about the seduction of Bonnie. I went into a lot of tedious detail at the start of the story to introduce the reader to Virginia. I'm seriously thinking about taking some time to rewrite the beginning to make it flow a little better. + **Part Two** is about Virginia's decision to have a committed relationship with Bonnie. + **Part Three** goes into the legal limbo that a non-traditional relationship puts you when it comes to dependants. NOTE: The Dining In Ceremony depicted in this story actually took place. Alex was the one who actually experienced this event during the events depicted in ""Tomorrow is Promised Pt. 02."" However, I took the liberty of putting it here to show what Virginia had to put up with while being an officer in the USAF. The speaker's name is the actual individual who made that hateful speech. + **Part Four** goes into the details of how getting caught in a homosexual relationship can destroy your career. We also find out that there are individuals in the USAF who aren't opposed to homosexuality. The book mentioned in this story: ""Managing the Software Process"" by Watts S. Humphrey, is an actual book and was the foundation on which the CMM evaluation was built. Watts did accompany my team when we evaluated TRW, and the reason he gave in the story was real. I really enjoyed working with him. He was a great man. + **Part Five** details Bonnie's death, the fallout from that, and Virginia's decision to end her AF career. + **If I Never Knew Your Name** \- This story is written from Bonnie's PoV. It covers a Saturday in October 1985 when Bonnie, Matthew, and Mark get together with Virginia for a date at the pier. This is when Bonnie first meets Cindy and Becky and buys a beaded bracelet for Virginia. This event was described in the side story 'The Gift.' We'll also see several flashbacks to events that took place before and during the events depicted in 'Your Silver Nights and Golden Days.' +I didn't want to just rewrite ""Your Silver Night and Golden Days Pt. 01"" from Bonnie's POV because we already know how that went. I tried to concentrate on the factors that led to the two falling in love. Bonnie's concern about her boys and how Virginia would accept them was a primary driver. The events leading up to Bonnie considering entering a lesbian relationship also needed to be brought out. We discover that Bonnie wasn't just a passive participant in the seduction leading up to their first date. + **And the Grass Won't Pay No Mind** \- This story is written from Bonnie's PoV. It covers an eleven-day span in July 1991 (with several flashbacks to previous events). This is before she gets sick and is diagnosed with pancreatic cancer that has been slowly growing throughout her body. Her bouts of nausea are a foreshadowing of things to come. Since pancreatic cancer has no obvious symptoms, it can spread throughout the body before being detected. One symptom is nausea caused by the tumor attacking the bile duct. The symptoms resemble bile stones, so cancer is not always checked for if someone goes to the doctor. +It goes into how she has a premonition before moving to Ohio from California that she will never return to California alive. Her actions from January 1989 until July 1991 resulted from her trying to set things up for that eventuality. She tries not to give away the fact that she thinks she will die soon. Several flashbacks, using hooks and events I've already put in place in 'Your Silver Night and Golden Days,' 'Tomorrow is Promised Pt. 01,' and 'Saving Grace,' reveal the actions that she's taken to prepare her Mom, Virginia, Matthew, and Mark for when she gets sick and dies. + **Done Too Soon** \- This story is written from Bonnie's POV. It covers how Bonnie prepares for and accepts her death. She makes sure that her Mom and her two sons accept her death as part of life and that they will help Virginia move on with her life. She makes sure that Virginia accepts her death and encourages her to move on and find someone else to love. Her grace and serenity exuded while accepting her death helps everyone accept it. +Interlaced with her story is another story showing her joy at being with her father again. He had died when she was young, and now they are reunited. + **Tomorrow is Promised** \- This story is written from three different POVs. It reinforces the connection that Alex has with Virginia and Judy. This is designed to be a literary triptych. While all three parts are temporally parallel, each piece is independent of the others. We also see that a fourth woman, Megan, has a relationship with all three women. + **Part 1** \-- from Virginia's PoV depicts Virginia ending her AF career and picking up the pieces of her life after Bonnie's death. Her request to resign her commission took so long because of all of the Top Secret Special Compartmental Access (TS-SCA) programs that Virginia had been read into. After being de-briefed from the programs, Virginia had to sign multiple Non- Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). Even now, 29 years later, she still can't discuss what she did for those programs since the NDAs were for 40 years. Virginia starts a relationship with Megan, but Megan gets an offer she can't refuse, and they part. Then Virginia decides to try to reconcile with Alex. + **Part 2** \-- from Alex's PoV depicts Alex picking up the pieces of her life after Virginia left her. We find out that life for a lesbian in the AF is tough, even if you aren't an active lesbian. Alex meets Megan, and the sexual attraction is there. Still, for the sake of her career, Alex doesn't follow through with a sexual relationship with Megan. We see Alex and Virginia rekindle their relationship. Alex reconciles with Virginia but decides that a relationship isn't in the cards. We also have Alex run into Judy again. + **Part 3** \-- from Judy's PoV depicts Judy picking up the pieces of her life after Jon's death. Judy meets Alex, and they rekindle their relationship. In the end, they decide that a relationship just isn't in the cards. We also find out that Judy and Megan have worked together. They were aware that they were both amenable to a lesbian relationship but never followed through with it because Judy was married and faithful to Jon. Then we have Judy meeting Virginia, and we discover the connection they feel for each other. + **Promises Made and Promises Kept** \- This story is written from Virginia's and Judy's PoV. This story details how they met and fell in love. This story can be read in two ways; reading the parts in sequential order or as two separate stories. Virginia's story is comprised of Parts 1, 3, and 5, directly following 'Tomorrow is Promised Pt. 01.' Judy's story is comprised of Parts 2 and 4, directly following 'Tomorrow is Promised Pt. 03.' + **Part 1** \- Written from Virginia's PoV, we start out with Virginia, reflecting on the reconciliation with Alex and their determination that they wouldn't pursue a relationship. Then Virginia applies for an opening at Raytheon and goes in for an interview. She meets Judy and realizes that they have a connection. Then Virginia finds out that she got the position. When Virginia shows up on her first day at work, she finds out she'll work with Judy. Virginia tells Alex about her new job and is surprised that Alex asks about Judy. + **Part 2** \- Written from Judy's PoV, we start with Judy doing her best to make sure Raytheon hires Virginia. She is impressed with Virginia's qualifications. There's just something about Virginia that makes her want to pursue a relationship with her. She learns that Virginia knows Alex and calls Alex and tells her that she thinks there's a connection between her and Virginia. She tells Virginia that she had an affair with Alex and ended it. They grow closer as they work together, doing yoga, and running together. Judy asks Virginia to have dinner with her and her two girls Amy and Emily. + **Part 3** \- Written from Virginia's PoV, this picks up from the end of ""Promises Made and Promises Kept Pt. 01,"" where Virginia finds out that Judy had had an affair with Alex. The flirting continues, and the two women start doing things together as their affection for each other grows. Eventually, they go out on a date and consummate their relationship. We find out that they both knew Megan. + **Part 4** \- Written from Judy's PoV, this picks up from the end of ""Promises Made and Promises Kept Pt. 02,"" where we find out that Judy outs herself to her family. Judy finds out that her family had long suspected that she had lesbian leanings. We see the date from Judy's PoV, where they consummate their relationship. They find out that they both knew and loved Megan, Judy, platonically, and Virginia physically. Finally, Virginia surprises Judy and asks Judy to wear her ring. + **Part 5** \- Written from Virginia's PoV, this picks up from the end of ""Promises Made and Promises Kept Pt. 03."" We discover that Virginia finally gets her wish to be legally recognized as Matthew's and Mark's mother. We see her planning to pop the question to Judy and what happens afterward. They get Alex's blessing for their union. An epilogue catches the events around Virginia's and Judy's lives up to the current date. + **Like Butter on a Summer Day** \- This story is written from Alex's PoV. It picks up from the end of ""Tomorrow is Promised Pt. 02"" and covers what happens to Alex after running into Judy at the STC. Alex finally finds her true love and retires from the USAF after a stellar career. The title is derived from the lyrics to the song ""Megan"" by Bayside. Again, I basically wrote Alex as myself, so it is somewhat autobiographical. + **Part One** picks up Alex's story from meeting Judy at the STC until she meets with Virginia and Judy when they travel to Dayton. Alex has concluded that she wants to have a relationship and is willing to give up her career in the military to have one if the opportunity presents itself. While meeting with Virginia and Judy, Alex finds out that Megan, a woman she loved but had never had a relationship with, teaches at MIT. NOTE: The OSI sting operation alluded to in this story represents the type of things the military would do to try to root out homosexuals. I have no actual knowledge that a sting was ever done at Robins AFB. If you are interested in learning more about a real incident, just google ""parris island sting lesbians marines."" This will take you to a story of one egregious example of what the Marines did to root out lesbians. + **Part Two** picks up with Alex remembering how she loved Megan but, except for one kiss, never pursued a relationship with her. She vows to find Megan now that she knows where to look. In the meantime, Alex pursues her career, getting accepted to Air War College and then getting her desired assignment at Hanscom AFB near MIT. Alex also gets promoted below-the-zone to Colonel, finally meeting all of the goals she had set for herself when she entered the Air Force. Once Alex settles in, she reconnects with Megan, and they get together and find out they are still in love with each other. When it is time for a security clearance review, Alex decides to retire and express her love for Megan instead of hiding anymore. An epilogue shows that Alex and Megan have enjoyed 22+ years together. They reminisce about that week spent in the cabin back in 1998. + **What Dreams May Come** \- This story was written to explore one possible way that Bonnie's promise to Virginia can be kept. It rests on the fact that in physics, information is conserved. Without going into a lot of theoretical physics, I posit that your identity (i.e., 'you') is preserved in the quantum substrate as a standing quantum wave. I further assert that 'you' are information that persists after the death of your body (i.e., your memories are information and must be conserved). I use a conversation between Virginia and a guide to make my case that there really can be a 'happily ever after' and that Bonnie can keep her promise to Virginia. Note that the story is comprised mainly of memories from Virginia's life that are being sorted and cataloged. The FAT I refer to in the story is a File Access Table. This is a map that the computer uses to find the data it wants to read from the hard drive. Virginia cannot remember who she is at first due to the standing quantum wave having to organize and catalog all of Virginia's memories. Once the FAT is built, Virginia has complete access to her memories and finally knows who she is. The title is derived from ""What Dreams May Come,"" a movie starring Robin Williams. Later I found out from Maonaigh, one of my favorite authors on Literotica, that the title is originally from Shakespeare's play, ""Hamlet."" The complete line is: ""For in that sleep of death _what dreams may come_ when we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause."" +Side Stories: + **A Chance Encounter** \- This story, a follow-up to 'The Gift,' was written to explore what a relationship between a pillow princess and a total top might be like. It also allows two characters from the arc to meet and explores how important that meeting becomes ten years later. One of my favorite authors on Literotica, Maonaigh, had requested a follow-up to 'The Gift.' I used this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. We find out in this story where Bonnie got the gold bangle bracelet that she gave Virginia on their first Christmas together. + **Receiving Grace** \- This story goes into more detail about Grace and Kathy's relationship. + **Part One** tells about the events leading up to Kathy's accident that prevent her from being with Grace when Bonnie dies. Additionally, a road trip that Grace and Kathy took in 1965 is remembered with fondness. + **Part Two** \- TBD + **Saving Grace** \- This story was written to explore a relationship between a dominant femme bottom and a submissive butch top. It starts out with role- playing, where they have switched roles temporarily. At the same time, we learn more about Grace and her relationship with Kathy. We also find some of the backstory behind why Bonnie, a divorced mother of two boys, ends up embracing a lesbian relationship with Virginia. + **The Gift** \- This story was written to explore how love can never die ... that as long as an ember remains, it can be re-ignited. At the same time, we are introduced to two characters that will interact with all of the main characters at one time or another. The intent of this story was to lead the reader to believe that the title referred to Bonnie buying the bracelet for Virginia (who is not named in this story). However, the true gift was Cindy and Becky's gift from Bonnie (and Virginia). + **The Ring** \- This story was written to explore how love can be right there in front of you if only you can recognize it. I wrote this story for the 2020 ""On the Job"" challenge. That's why all of the action is depicted in the workplace. At the same time, we see Virginia from another PoV and the events leading up to her relationship with Bonnie. We also get a glimpse of Virginia's rationale to justify a lesbian relationship that could ruin her career." +476,How to Receive Anal Sex,MarkLazer,How To,2013-10-12,2014-01-30,2022-01-04 08:33:27,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-receive-anal-sex,1. A man's guide on how to receive anal sex. 2. More tips and hints for men on receiving anal sex.,"['Anal How-To', 'Ass', 'Cum', 'Gay Anal']",4.67,"_I am a bisexual man who can give you helpful information and even share some stories that may help provide some techniques that will allow you to accept a cock up your ass so that it will pleasurable for both of you. Remember before you engage in any type of anal sex, you need to be safe and responsible._ +Preparation +There are some things that need to happen to prepare yourself and your partner for anal sex. Step one is cleanliness. You always need to make sure your asshole and rectum are clean and prepared to handle dick. If needed, use an enema about an hour before engaging in anal sex and then clean yourself really good after you have expelled the enema liquid. Now your asshole is prepared to accept a guy's manhood. This cleanliness also allows you more options about where to take his spunk. If he pulls out and his dick is still clean, then he can put it against your face and give you a facial or shove it in your mouth and shoot his wad. +Step two in receiving anal sex is properly preparing your partner's penis. I do not have to tell you that size definitely matters. The size of your partner's member will determine the type of condom he will wear if needed, type of lubrication needed, amount of lubrication needed, and the difficulty it takes to fit it in you. If you just look at your partner's dick, sometimes that can be very deceptive because first it may not be completely hard and second, you will judge it according to the proportion of his body size. +For example, if a large man is going to fuck you, his cock may not seem as big as it actually is when comparing it to the size of his body. This is the reason why I always suck a guy's dick before I allow him to fuck me. By going down on your man, you first will get him completely erect, get him hornier, and you can feel his complete size with your mouth. Now that you have his cock completely engorged, you can make better decisions on proceeding forward. +Condom size is very important. You want to be sure you have a supply of magnum condoms as well as regular size. I like to put the condom on the guy myself to guarantee proper placement, fit, and to guarantee the reservoir tip is directly over the hole to catch all his cum. I once hooked up with this black man named Randy who I met at a bar and we ended up back at my place. He was very well hung and neither of us had any large condoms so we just used a regular sized one I had in my drawer. I should have listened to my instincts when I had trouble getting it on him. Eventually, he was holding my ankles while furiously pounding me in the missionary position and when he unloaded his spunk, I thought I could feel the warmth of it while he was shooting. When he pulled out, I was horrified to see the condom was completely broken and the only thing left on his dick was the rubber ring around the base of his shaft next to his pubic hair. Randy had completely shattered his rubber because of the size of his dick and the friction of my tight asshole. +I have also had the complete opposite happen to me. The first time I allowed this waiter named Tim to fuck me; I put a large condom on him because he had a long penis. Even though he was about nine inches in length, he was very thin in girth. He fucked me for quite a while in several different positions and because of the duration and him leaking so much precum, his rubber completely slipped off inside me. Once again, we didn't know it until after he came. It took a couple of minutes after we had finished for me to find it and pull it out. +Whether you are going to use a condom or going bareback, you need to use lubrication. Most of the time, you want to use a water soluble lube like Astro-gluide or KY Jelly. These types of lubrications will not interact with your latex material and are easily expelled. Occasionally it is nice to mix it up and use baby oil, Vaseline or something creative. I once was at this guy's apartment that had just moved in and most things were boxed up. I was giving him a blowjob on his couch when he got so horny and needed to fuck. We looked around in boxes for anything to use and the only thing we could find was peanut cooking oil. Surprisingly it worked very well and we were able to kill two birds with one stone because he ended up pulling out and cumming in my mouth and that mixed with the oil taste was not bad compared to when it is mixed with regular lubrication. +I find it best to lubricate both, his cock and your own asshole. There is really no reason for both of you to get lube on your hands so decide which one of you will do it. Most of the time, I am the one who greases up my partner's dong with some stroking and then I slather my own asshole by sticking my fingers in and swirling them around. I personally like to do it myself because one, I can control the amount of lube and second, it prevents him from having it all over his hands and he won't accidently smear it all over your hips, ankles, or waist when he is holding on for leverage. +Semen is a great lubrication. Of course it can only be used if your partner has the stamina to fuck you twice or if you're involved in a threesome or an orgy. One time I was involved in a threesome where both guys came twice. After the first guy blew his load in my ass, it was lubed well enough to last the total sex session with both men. After taking 4 loads in my butt, I did feel as though I had a cum enema and not once was there any trouble getting them in and out of me. +Entering +Once you are clean and both of you are lubricated properly, it is time to fit him inside you. This is the hardest part. If a guy has a large dick or even just a large head, it can start out very painful. Your lover has to be very careful and patient. If he has a smaller to medium sized cock, I will allow him to insert it my rectum but if he is extremely large or just has bulk, I like to control the entrance. If I am unsure, I will error on the size of large. +If your lover is the one that will be doing the inserting, it helps if you reach back and guide him. Place his penis head up against your hole, take a deep breath, and relax your sphincter muscles. When he pushes, keep your breathing smooth and controlled while you allow the mushroom to pop in you. Your anus will stretch but it still is quite painful in the beginning. Try to hold it as long as you can and if the pain gets too unbearable, have him take it out. At this time is when many people give up on anal sex but you have to be persistent. The second or third time he slides his head in your butthole, the pain will be a lot less. Your hole will eventually adapt and accommodate his size but it takes time. This is why I say your partner has to be patient. This is another reason I like to be in control if my partner is hung. +Once he is inside you, and the pain has subsided, then allow him to feed his inches into you slowly. This can also be painful and this is why he needs to be patient and well lubricated. I prefer he goes ahead and buries his cock all the way in me until his pubic hair is touching my ass crack as soon as he can because this allows you to get acclimated to all of it and there are no surprises later on. Once you are ready, he can begin his thrusting. +Now if your partner has a large dick, you have to approach it differently because he can do some serious damage to you and this is why I like to be in control. After I have sucked a guy to full erection, I will have him either lie on the floor or sit on the edge of a chair so that I still have access to put my feet on a hard surface. I will hold his hard cock where it is pointed straight in the air, squat down on top of it, place it directly against my asshole, then ease myself down on it until it is tolerable. Sometimes, it may take as many as three or four times of you pulling off and then getting back on it. Eventually, I will be sitting on his lap with his huge dong buried in my rectum. +If you're properly lubed, stretched, and able to take his size, then you can have him fuck you. I like to bounce on him for a while just to get everything adjusted and then switch to different positions of his choice. You can always finish by going back to the original position of riding him until he cums. I will tell you that a large dick can make a difference inside you. When your butt is completely stuffed with a huge dick, the length of it feels like it is up in your intestines and the suction can put air in your stomach and give you cramps. When fucking a well hung man, you need to take his cock out of you periodically during your sex session. Don't wait too long before you get it back in so that your hole is still stretched and ready. +The largest guy who has ever fucked me was when I was in college and he was a black linebacker on the football team. His dick was absolutely huge. It was about 12 inches long and as big around as a Pringles can. If he struck out with the ladies on the weekends, he would call me over late at night and give me his monster. It was so big; I could barely give him blowjobs. I would have to open my mouth as far as I could just to fit in his head, and after that I could only get a couple of inches in my mouth. I basically could only jack him off with both of my hands while blowing him and when he would finally shoot his load, I could barely take it without choking. You could imagine my horror and excitement when he wanted to fuck my ass with that tree trunk. +The first time, I had to take a pain pill just to get relaxed and prepared to handle Vinny's monster. The fact there were a few girls around who he had fucked, used to tell people that there was no way anyone could take it in the ass. Hearing this actually excited me and made me want it even more. I was ready to accept the challenge. That first time, it was about 2:15 in the morning and I used Vasoline and lots of it to prepare myself for him. Vinny was really drunk but didn't have much trouble getting that huge dick hard. I had to sit on him and really work it around until it finally plopped in me and the pain was overwhelming. I thought I was ripped and pulled off immediately. I repeated this several times before I was able to handle it. Eventually I was able to sit all the way down on that dick and I swear it felt like it was up inside my belly. You always hear or read when people say that a cock that large feels good but that is a total lie. You never get completely used to a cock that big. You can eventually tolerate it but you make sure you are fully lubed up and say things that can make him cum quickly. +When fucking a large cock, air builds up inside your anus and it can form suction upon withdrawal. On another night when Vinny came over drunk and extremely horny, I ended up on my back while he pumped so hard that his balls ended up leaving red marks on my ass from the repeated smacking. I know it sounds made up but his balls were also huge and hung extraordinarily low. After he finally came, he just rested for a couple of minutes with that huge cock still in me. Even though his dong had deflated a little bit, the suction had built up so much that when he finally pulled out, a string of cum squirted out through his legs and across the carpet. It looked like it had squirted out of a water bottle. +Taking the Cock +Now that your asshole is acclimated to his dick, it is time to get screwed. There are many positions that can give you just as much pleasure as the guy pounding you. If you are flexible like I am, then lay on your back, with a pillow under your ass to position your hole more upward, and have him put your legs behind your head. He can hold your ankles to give himself leverage while he pumps straight down. In this position, you can reach around his ass and kinda hold him steady so he doesn't slide away if he is on his knees. If he is young or strong, he can also stand on his feet and fuck you without sliding away. This position really feels good on your prostate and also allows you to feel his warm cum as it squirts in you. I can tell you that it feels better when you feel his cum shoot further up you and that is why I like pulling his ass toward me he cums. +Another good position that I use which has many benefits is when I get on my knees on the couch facing the back of it. I put both my hands on the back with my legs spread. This allows my lover to stand comfortably and be at a perfect height for him to insert himself inside me without having to squat. If he is taller, he can just spread his legs wider to make himself shorter and yet his feet are flat on the floor to dig in for better traction. +This is also a good position because you can hold on to the couch no matter how forceful he pumps you. This position is also very convenient if he is a pull out cummer. He literally doesn't even have to adjust himself if he chooses to pull out and shoot it on your ass or back. If he likes to pull out and give you a facial or cum in your mouth, it is a very easy and quick transition because he can pull out and all you have to do is swing one leg over and immediately you are in a setting position at the perfect height to his dick. If he is wearing a rubber, this will also give him time to pull it off. +Now you are ready for his load without wasting much time at all. Since your face is at the right height, he can grab the top of your head to steady himself while he erupts all over it. He also has the option to stick it in your mouth when he cums or just open your mouth and he can shoot it in there. You can also reach up and be the one who jacks him off in your mouth or on your face. With this position, there are so many good options and they are comfortable for both of you. If he is wearing a rubber and you are the one to pull it off, don't grab it by the reservoir tip and pull because it will get stuck trying to come off. Use all five of your fingers in a claw position, grab the ring or base of the condom, and pull it off as though you are unrolling it and eventually it will just slip off. You have to do this very quickly or it will be too late and he will fill the rubber up before you can get it off. +Another benefit to this position is that it works well if you are engaging in a threesome. Of course the couch needs to up against the wall. The first guy can be sitting on the back of the couch in front of you and you can suck his dick while the other lover is fucking you. This is very erotic and it is very exciting if you can make both men cum at the same time. I have had threesomes many times but I have only been able to make them cum together a couple of times. Both guys have to communicate with you and you may have to slow down at one end to allow the other to catch up. Nothing is more satisfying to hear both of them grunting and screaming at the same time while your mouth and asshole are filling up with both loads simultaneously. +Now I stated earlier that if my lover has a huge cock, I will ride him in the beginning just so I can control the entrance. As you know, we all love to have our dicks rode. There have been occasions where I will just ride a guy the whole until he cums. Most of the time, I will start out riding him, then we will switch to different positions, and sometimes I will go back and ride him at the end until he shoots. The down side to riding cock is your legs have to be in pretty good shape or you run out of steam. It doesn't really matter if you're facing toward him or away from him; you basically have two types of riding. You can be flat on your feet and lift yourself up and down on his cock that I call bouncing. Bouncing on a man's dick feels great for both of you but your legs give out pretty quick and then you can resort to rocking. Rocking is when you are on your knees rather than your feet and you rock back and forth drawing his dong in and out of you. +You can periodically rock and bounce but when your lover is getting close to cumming, I think slowly bouncing straight up and down on him is what feels the best for both of you. It is like your in control and you are literally milking his prick with your asshole. If he is a large man and you are smaller, there are times when he will lift you up and down on his cock like he is masturbating with your rectum. At this point, he will feel so good all you need to do is throw in some dirty talk and this will put him over the edge. I will say things like, ""Go ahead fill it up or fill me up"" or ""Give me that cum. I need it."" +The rocking position is really the only position you can use comfortably and perform a double penetration. I honestly don't recommend double penetration because of the potential of tearing your rectum. I have only done this twice and once it did tear me a little. If your going to do it, be very lubricated, then have the guy with the biggest dick lay down on his back. You need to straddle him on your knees in the rocking position, facing him. Let me repeat; always have the guy with the biggest cock in you first. Once you have him in and you are comfortable, lean forward as if you are laying on him chest to chest. The other man will be on his knees facing you two or standing if you happen to be on the side of the bed or couch. The first guy, who is already in you, needs to remain perfectly still until the second man gets his dick all the way in as well. This can take some time and both times for me it hurt like hell. Once both dicks are inside your asshole, you mostly have to let the guy on top do the pumping while the guy on bottom just enjoys you moving a little bit. +Another great position is with you lying on your side and he is also lying on his side directly behind you. All you have to do is lift your leg and he will have easy access to work is cock in you. My ex used to love this position and right before he would cum, he would rise up to his knees, lift my top leg over his shoulder and unload his cum in me scissors style. Men can basically have anal sex in just about any position a man and a woman can. You have to be creative and patient. +Taking the Cum +No matter your position, you eventually have to prepare yourself for your lover's cum. He has worked extremely hard pumping your asshole and I feel he has earned the right to decide how and where he wants to cum even though you might give him suggestions. At this point he is probably out of breath and sweat forming on his forehead. By giving him suggestions or asking him will add to his excitement and probably make him shoot. Quite often, I will have a guy humping and pumping and I will look back at him and say, ""Do you want to cum in my mouth?"" or ""Do you want to pull out and shoot it on my back?"" When they hear this, they will usually decide immediately and off they go. +I think most guys appreciate clenching. I like to give that guy a little extra feeling right before he cums. Most guys will give you a clue when they about ready to shoot their load whether it is verbally or with their body language. I vaguely remember this guy back in college but what I do remember is every time he got ready to cum, he would open his eyes really wide and hold his breath. That was a give away and that is when I would clench my asshole together to provide that extra sensitive tightness. When he came, he would shove his cock in my ass far as he could, hold it still with the exception of just slight rocking. He told me that he felt like he was milking himself in me. He would cum so hard that he would go weak at the knees for a few minutes. +Finally, if your lover decides he is going to cum in your ass, allow him to finish as he pleases. I know when most guys start cumming, they will buck, shake, cram it far up you, violently grab and pull you to them, and so forth. I know sometimes it can be slightly uncomfortable but it is best to remain still and allow your lover to do what he wants until he completely finishes. This will only enhance his orgasm and his pleasure. Vinny used to throw himself in me so hard, I felt he was coming out of my mouth and it wasn't always pleasurable to me, but Vinny would be so satisfied, he came back for more. + +" +477,How to Record a Text with Audio Story,SunrockSin,How To,2008-12-13,2008-12-13,2022-01-04 08:33:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-record-a-text-with-audio-story,Instructions on submitting text with audio to Lit.,['Writing Advice'],4.14,"Of the many categories of stories Literotica writers can post their work to the audio story is probably the most difficult. While the writing of the story is not too difficult, the writer should remain aware that this will be a performance piece. If you are writing and recording a poem, the length normally will be short which should make the actual recording fairly easy. If you are writing prose you should keep in mind that any recording you make will take up a lot of disk space. That simple fifteen hundred word story can take up to twenty-five to thirty megabytes or more depending upon your recording quality. +I will discuss the writing and performing a bit more in later articles, for this article I want to discuss the actual mechanics of recording your Audio Story. First of all, this article is intended for people with little or no experience in submitting Audio Stories to Lit, so those of you with expensive audio equipment and software you might was to skip over this article. This is about recording your Audio Stories as inexpensively and easily as possible. +Again, for those of you new to recording stories, you don't need to go out and spend tens or hundreds of dollars to buy recording software or hardware. If you have a windows based system, you should already have what you need to record and submit a story. In your windows accessories folder you should find a program called Sound Recorder. My Sound Recorder program is in the entertainment folder within the accessories folder. This is all the software you will need to record your story. +Many computers have a built in microphone, but I recommend that you go and buy a cheap microphone, most should cost between ten and twenty dollars. You can use your built in microphone but I find an external microphone more convenient and I think it gives you a bit better control of what sound is picked up in the recording process. Anyway, once you have your microphone, simply plug it into the microphone port in your computer and you are ready to go. +Before you start recording you will want to consider making a few changes to the Sound Recorder's default settings. To do this you need to start the program, then go to the menu and click on File. Select properties and look down about the middle of the pop up box for a box titled Format Conversion. Leave the selection on Recording Formats and then click Convert Now. Another box will pop up called Sound Selection. Simply click on the down arrow to the right of the name: [untitled]. +Once you click on this arrow you will see the options for three different sound qualities: CD Quality, Radio Quality and Phone Quality. CD Quality provides the best sound quality with very little static, clicks or pops, unfortunately this added quality comes at a cost, disc space. The size of your sound file for your story using CD Quality will be four or five times larger than one recorded at a Radio or Phone Quality level. +While those of you with huge hard drives may not worry much about the size of your files, keep in mind you will eventually sending this file to Literotica via your internet connection and the huge files will take a long time to transfer. Anyway, depending upon the quality you need for your recording simply click on the quality you want and hit the OK button. You will drop back to a box titled Properties for Sound where you will hit the OK button again and you will return to the Sound Recorder. +The recorder is ready to record up to sixty seconds of sound, so if your poem or story is short simply click on the red button and begin recording. If you think your story is longer than sixty seconds don't panic, you will just need to set the recorder to record a longer period. Simply push the red button and let it record anything for sixty seconds. It will stop after sixty seconds, but if you hit the red button again, suddenly it will extend the recording period by another sixty seconds. +If your story is very long, all you have to do is repeat the steps about until you have the length of recording you think you will need. Once you have enough time set on the recorder to record your story, simply rewind (push the double arrows pointing to the left) and then push the red button and record your story. When you finish the story, hit the stop button (the rectangular button to the left of the red button). If there is a lot of excess time left on the recording you can cut off this excess at the end by going to the menu and clicking on Edit. When the drop down menu appears simply click on Delete After Current Position and your recording will be ready to save. +Saving the recorded story is like saving any other file, simple go to the menu, click on File, select Save As, navigate to whatever folder you want to save your file into, type in a file name and hit Save. You now have a file ready to play back and/or submit to Literotica. You might want to look at the file detail to see exactly how big a file you have, it might surprise you how big it can get, especially if you recorded at CD quality. +If you plan to record a lot of long stories you might want to set up a template so you don't have to waste time running the recorder out sixty seconds at a time for each story you write. When setting up a template, you repeat the steps above until you have a blank recording about five minutes long. Save this blank file titling it Template 5 min, or something like that. When you want to record a story, open the file, make sure it is rewound and then hit the red button to record. You can then edit the recording to remove any unrecorded space and the give the file another name (this is important so you can keep your template for future recordings) and save it. +The Sound Recorder is limited in what it can do when compared to the other software available, but it is an inexpensive and relatively easy program to record your stories. Limited as it is, sound recorder does have some ways to enhance your recording with special effects.

Please take the time to vote and I'd love to hear all of your comments. Thank you. Have fun reading._ +* +This may sound like a silly article and it in many ways it is. But brushing your teeth is probably something many people mean to do on a regular basis and yet constantly end up forgetting to do so. So how do we overcome the obstacles we face on a daily basis that distract us from brushing more regularly? + **1\. Place a toothbrush by every sink in the house** +While this may sound silly it works really well. Especially if toothbrushes are colour coded, as all mine are purple it is easy to identify which ones are mine. +But why would I need more than one toothbrush? You wouldn't if you have one bathroom and are living by yourself. But if you have a brother like mine you would. He's like Pavlov's dog, except picking up my toothbrush is the signal for him to run down the hall and physically push me out of the bathroom while at the same time smiling and singing ""I gotta poop!"" And there is no way I'm going back in there after he's done his business to brush my teeth with that stench hanging in the air. So the problem has been solved by placing purple toothbrushes in both bathrooms and by the kitchen sink or else I would literally never have a chance to brush my teeth at home. Yes, he goes two or three times a day, he's just that regular and that annoying and disrupting to my tooth brushing schedule. +Another instance when having a toothbrush in multiple places is convenient is when you have eaten dinner in front of the T.V. Now you're done eating but you don't want to wander too far from it, as the show you're watching isn't done yet. In this case if there's a bathroom on the same floor as the T.V. you can just run to the bathroom and brush your teeth on a commercial without having to go up or downstairs to find another bathroom where you usually brush. After all, it's all about doing it, but in the laziest way possible. + **2\. When away from home, find a tooth brushing buddy** +When away from home and you are forced into different routines, or surroundings distract you, it is best to find a tooth brushing buddy for incentive. This especially works well if you are visiting your significant other's house or are at someone else's house with them. For those who prefer making sure there s/o has brushed before they are kissed: this is a good way to keep an eye on them and then you won't have to ask that question later. It is also fun to make faces at each other in the mirror or try having a conversation and seeing how many words you can actually understand. Also not minded in the least is the wandering hand that is free to caress and grope and tickle while both of us finish up. I hope you all remembered to pick contrasting tooth paste flavors, as this is key when he spins you around to see how clean you taste. It's more fun if you can tell he tastes like Mint and you taste like Orange than both of you just tasting like the same flavor of toothpaste. It's still important to mark your spot, after all then you'll know where you have been. +And don't be surprised if brushing your teeth together leads to spending more time together in the bathroom in general especially if something like the following scenario plays out: +Spinning my boy around to see if his teeth are clean, I start probing carefully with my tongue in a teasing manner, exploring his mouth. He returns the gesture more forcefully with his tongue until he's sure I've done it right. Turning again to face the mirror, he mentions that he forgot something and I think I know just what he's talking about looking at his smile in the mirror. Slowly he undoes his belt and pulls it out of all the loops, not undoing his pants. That's not required for what comes next. I see him folding it in half and close my eyes waiting expectantly. The anticipation builds, waiting for the first crack to fall. But no, he just gently trails it across my ass first. There is nothing quite as ticklish as a smooth leather belt. It makes me jump once, twice, then a third time. So I try to relax, savoring the moment. Just as soon as I do relax genuinely the first blow falls, but still very lightly, just a little sting to it. The belt falls alternating between short quick stings and more forceful thuds but each growing in intensity until there are grunts on the thuds and high pitched squeaks on the stinging blows and there is a puddle in my panties. I am sure there are slight weal marks, but it doesn't hurt in the slightest. Letting him know my ass is red enough for today, I practically tear off his pants. It's time for him to slide home where he belongs, again and again, until I get to see those funny facial expressions when he cums and it'll all because of me. +And now if you'll excuse me I think I have to go find my toothbrush buddy and brush my teeth ...again. +* + _Once again, this article is being entered in the 2007 Literotica How-To Contest.

Nothing can destroy a poem for a reader quicker than poorly handled rhyme. While rhyme can add a certain dignity or classical beauty to a poet's words, it often times can make the most dynamic and powerful verse seem trite. Poorly worked rhyme can overpower a poem, drawing attention away from more lyrical or well worded verse, while properly handled the rhyme can become a subtle chime enhancing the rhythm and lyrical content of the verse. +Any rhyme should have a natural feel, as if it is simply part of natural speech. Too often rhyme is forced or unnatural as a poet extends a line as they desperately search for a word to complete a rhyme. Another mistake is reordering the natural language to push a rhyme into position, a style I've heard one poet call ""Yoda-speak,"" the quasi-zen speech pattern of the grand Jedi knight of Star Wars fame. While this may sound philosophical for a pointy-eared green man from a far off planet, it simply weakens even the best of poems. +Another thing to avoid is using _Trite rhyme_ , the rhyming of words overused for rhymes. Joyce Kilmer's ""Trees"" is an example of a poem using _trite rhyme_ (tree, see, etc). While, depending on the context of the rhyming words, some of these words can be used in original ways, a poet should be very careful in their use. +While most of us are familiar with the rhyme found at the ends of lines, called _end rhyme_ , there are various kinds of rhyme named for they way words rhyme and for the location where the rhymes are found within the lines. _True rhyme_ refers to ""...the identical sound, in two or more words, of an accented vowel (o' – o' – o') as well as of all the sounds following that vowel ('one – 'oan – 'own), while the consonantal sounds immediately preceeding the vowel differ in each word (bone – loan – shown)."" (1) + _Internal rhyme_ is where the ending of a line rhymes with a word in the center of the same line. ""Where once I had a _Bill_ to drive back my _chill_ (X.J. Kennedy). + _Linked rhyme_ rhymes the last syllable or syllables of a line with the first syllable or syllables of the following line. ""The bell is heard, and the song is sung / flung upon the morning air."" (1). Similar to the _linked rhyme_ , the _cross rhyme_ is when the ending of a line rhymes with a sound at the center of a line preceding or following the line. ""The bell is heard, the song is _sung_ ; / The sound is _flung_ on the morning air. (1). _Head rhyme_ will rhyme the beginnings of one line to the beginnings of the next line. "" _Sung_ is the song of the ringing bell / _Flung_ upon the morning air."" (1) +Rhymes can be created at times. For instance: _apocopated rhyme_ will drop one or more syllables from a word to rhyme with another, morning shortens to _morn-_ to rhyme with _born_. _Enjambed rhyme_ will use the first consonant of the following line to complete the rhyme sound: ""He found the stair and _he / d_ escended to find the _seed_. (1) + _Single rhymes_ are one syllable rhymes (torn – shorn); _double rhymes_ are two syllable rhymes (winning – sinning) and _triple rhymes_ are rhymes over three syllables. +In an effort to minimize the monotony of the overuse of _true rhyme_ there are other types of rhyme to consider. "" _Rich rhyme_ ( _rime riche_ , false rhyme) has identical sound in the consonants immediately preceding the accented vowel as well in the sounds following it (cyst – persist – insist)."" (1) _Consonance_ or _slant rhyme, off rhyme and near-rhyme_ substitutes similar sound for identical sound (bridge – wedge – gouge – page). This rhyme assumes all vowel sounds are interchangeable. Some very interesting sound combinations using this type of rhyme can add originality and interest to a poem that _true rhyme_ can lose. + _Sight rhyme_ are words where portions of the word are spelled alike, but are not pronounced the same (eight – sleight, lies – homilies) _Historic rhyme_ will take different pronunciations of words from historical times and rhyme them with a word (again – pain, again – when). +Of course, fans of Ogden Nash have learned another type of rhyme, _wrenched rhyme_ +The Rhinoceros +The rhino is a homely beast For human eyes he's not a feast Farewell, farewell, you old _rhinoceros,_ I'll stare at something less _prepoceros._ +Ogden Nash +There are still more poetic devices to help poets keep their rhyme in line, but they can get cumbersome and complicated, so I'll not get into those at this time. I do believe that any poet wanting to work with rhyme or rhyming forms should familiarize themselves with they types and variations of rhyme available to them. Rhyme can be a subtle and beautiful thing in poetry or it can get very ugly very fast. Think about what you are doing to the sound of the poem, read it out loud to yourself, if it looks like it will sound goofy and then if it does sound goofy, it probably is goofy and needs more work. Hopefully next _time_ your poem will _rhyme_ just _fine_. +Documentation: +1\. Turco, Lewis The New Book of Forms, A Handbook of Poetics University Press of New England 1986. +2\.

Since rimming has resulted in such exceptional orgasms for both of us over thirty-five years we, thought we should honor these requests. Some of this is scattered through the Guide, but important details are added +At the outset, you have to recognize and overcome the psychological barrier that you are going to be putting you mouth and tongue on and in the anus, which also is the exit point for waste from the body. If you can't do this, don't read on—but know that you're turning away from pleasure you can only imagine if you don't rim. +Come to grips with where your mouth and tongue are going. Common sense and careful cleaning create a perfect stage for rimming. Celeste and I have never had a problem, never—and we probably rim once a week. If you have never rimmed before and want to experience the thrill, it's probably a good idea for the women to administer an enema to herself before starting, maybe two, and then washing carefully. They really aren't necessary, but they'll put you at ease about elimination and make you more relaxed. +With that out of the way, let's look at what you're trying to accomplish by rimming and compare it to eating pussy (cunnilingus). The ideal orgasm for Celeste involves simultaneously stimulating her clitoris, g-spot, the furrow between her inner and outer sphincters, and the tip ends of the arms of her clitoris. (All of this is explained in the Guide.) If I eat her pussy, what am I accomplishing? Actually, all I'm doing is stimulating her clitoris with my tongue and I don't know about you, but I find both the smell and taste of the vagina to be unpleasant. On the other hand, when we rim (analingus) we can accomplish all four goals, and without the nasty odor or taste. A clean asshole is absolutely delightful. To me, it tastes slightly sweet, slightly metallic, and very pleasant. Also, there's absolutely no possibility of pain for her, as I never penetrate her inner sphincter. As a matter of fact, my penis plays no role in rimming. +Here's how I rim Celeste. +I kneel on the floor with my knees resting on a pillow for comfort. Celeste lies on the edge of the bed with her legs resting on my shoulders and a doubled-up, thick pillow or cushion under her butt and the small of her back to provide a perfect angle for my tongue and a restful position for her. I then nimble at her rosebud (it looks just like one and opens up like one too) until she is aroused. When she is, I spread her ass cheeks as far as possible, form my mouth into an ""o"" and suck her hole open. [I know what some of you are thinking, but that has never happens. Never.] Once she is wide open, I broad stroke her up and down using running the flat of my tongue up and down her hole until she begins to tremble. Once this happens, I roll the edges of my tongue into the shape of a cannoli and gently tongue fuck the furrow between her outer and inner sphincter. +While I'm doing this, Celeste chooses the intensity of the orgasm she wants to have. If she wants a regular, take-your-breath-away one, she just strokes her clit. If she wants more intensity, she slips her middle finger into her vagina, finds her g-spot with it, and presses against her g-spot while stroking her clit with her thumb, pushing the two together. If she wants to try to ejaculate, we use a g-spot stimulator. It looks something like a hook with a broad tip at its end but supplies a constant pressure that lead to an ejaculation about half the time. If she want the full monte, while I'm tongue fucking her and she is stroking her clit and g-spot, I take two fingers of one hand and press against the ends of the two arms of her clit which are located at about ten and two o'clock in the area around her hole if 12 o'clock is the point where her anus is closest to her vagina. +[When Celeste rims me, her mouth and tongue actions are exactly the same. Obviously, there is no g-spot or tip ends of the clitoris stimulation, but she replaces them by scratching my frenulum while I play with my nipples. It's a gusher every time.] +You just can't miss using these techniques, but you should be warned about a couple of things before you try our style of rimming. +First, as Celeste's orgasm approaches her entire body starts to tremble. When the shaking starts, she thrusts her butt down on my face hard, trying to get my tongue as deeply into her as possible. Then her thighs clamp around my head and for a couple of seconds I have the sensation that I'm going to suffocate. Don't worry if this happens to you, the sensation passes and you will continue to breathe. +Second, when her orgasm strikes, she often screams because of its power. This is fine when we are alone at home, but not something you want to have happen in a hotel or motel where it can disturb other people. Pencils can break, but the plastic dowel of a toilet paper holder clenched between the teeth prevents this from happening. +Third, and Celeste wanted me to stress this, rimming is not a well-we've-done- that-now-let's-do-something-else activity, particularly for a woman who has not experienced the intensity of a rimming orgasm before. It can be so powerful that what has happened to her is a total surprise. It not that it is frightening, but it can be stunning. A woman's lover needs to stay with her, lying next to her in bed and holding her reassuringly, stroking her body gently as she comes down from what seems like an explosion within her body. As well, for a woman the afterglow that radiates through her is exquisite and needs to be savored. +Rimming can produce an unbelievable sexual experience. We hope these details will help you to achieve one." +481,How to Roleplay Online,PrincessErin,How To,2011-12-30,2011-12-30,2022-01-04 08:33:32,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-roleplay-online,A woman's guide to sex play online.,"['Cyber', 'Cyber Sex', 'Online Sex', 'Roleplay']",4.3,"The idea of typing out your every move during a sexual encounter might sound tedious and boring to some, but the age of technology has created an intense and intriguing opportunity for many -- cybersex. +I would argue that there is a difference between cybersex and roleplaying. The former is simply two individuals typing out how they would engage in sexual intercourse. The later is more detailed including a location set up, character set up, and much more detail on the 'why' of sex, as opposed to the end result. It would make sense from a sexist perspective to assume that only men enjoy cybersex and only women enjoy roleplaying. That is not the case as it is simply depends on what arouses the individual. +The reason that online sex playing is so popular is that with the right partner you can enjoy whatever you want in a sexual experience. Money, location, physical looks are not limited. Role-playing is an art form that is growing for so many reasons. For me it's simply the fact that emotionally and physically I cannot have a one-night stand. I get too attached and would never go out and find someone just to have sex. Physically the world is much different then ten, even five years ago. You can never be too safe when it comes to sex. Therefore I believe that role-playing online is the safest sex you can ever have. +Role-playing is an art and requires a certain amount of skill and knowledge. From my perspective I have heard and seen almost everything outrageous and crazy when it comes to this enjoying situation. I have come up with my top five of how to role-play +1 -- Honesty! +Be honest with yourself and what you want from the situation. You can pretend to be someone your not but don't do the whole bait and switch thing. If you say you want a romantic, sensual scene then do that. Don't change half way through and decide that you need to fuck like an animal. +It's best to spend a few minutes talking about what you want out of the situation. Discussing what both people look like, the type of sex you enjoy, any limits of things that are total turn offs and things that really need to be done are all important. Laying out your expectations may not sound romantic or sensual but will save both parties in wasting their time with someone who is so desperate they will lie about their interests just to 'fuck you."" +2 -- Speak English! +It's not necessary to have a degree in English and have the latest grammar textbook memorized. It is important to be able to communicate effectively on a simple level of words and sentences and paragraphs. Not being able to spell your partner's name correctly many times will not earn you any points. Nor will using words such as 'wot', 'yah', and a multitude of short forms. Doing all these things simply distract from the enjoyment and fun of role-playing online. +3 -- Details! +The reason that online role-playing is so popular and so arousing is that two people are able to put in words what they would do in real life. Any one can type out 'cock in pussy.' The realism of the scene is based on typing out the five senses. Sex is not just about thrusting, it's about the smells, and the tastes, and the feelings of the encounter. Being detailed adds enjoyment for both parties. +4 -- Know What You Are Doing! +So this tip is more of a rant about one of my biggest pet peeves. You don't have to have fucked over a hundred guys or girls to be good at role-play. You do need to know how sex works. Saying things like how your cock is so big it went into a girls' uterus is not only painful but also incorrect. Having a woman who is one month pregnant lactate is also incorrect. If you don't know the details of how you actually want to fuck at least read online before you initiate it. +5 -- Don't Cum and Leave! +I'm sure that more men then women do this but just the same its just plan rude. There are a lot of things that fall under this issue. These include leaving early, suggesting something that the other person clearly does not want, and suddenly demanding things that are off limits. +Roleplaying is clearly the new way of having one-night stands. It can be enjoyable for both people and when done correctly can be just as arousing as phone sex, cam sex, and maybe even real life sex." +482,How to Ruin A Good Story,BlueDaisy,How To,2002-10-31,2002-10-31,2022-01-04 08:33:33,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-ruin-a-good-story,Proofreading and editing can really help a story.,"['Make Effort', 'People Make', 'Read Story', 'Story']",4.47,"Many tim I open a storie on literotica settle down in my chair and get ready to transported to my own little fantasyland. +The title may be catchy prommising to be a very nice arousing story.

Have you ever known anyone who actually benefited from a self-help book (besides the author?) It's time to get real, folks. It's time to embrace a life-strategy that follows the path least resistance; a life strategy that any loser can manage without breaking a sweat. +I have outlined below a 12-step program that can facilitate the endeavor of ruining one's life. (Actually, it's a 21-point list, but everybody's into 12-step programs these days, so let's just pretend that's what it is.) +Now, I admit, the cautious reader might look at these 12 steps as examples of behavior to avoid. What a bunch of candy-ass wimps! Man-up, dudes and dudettes! Get off your sorry butts and make something of yourselves! It's never too late to turn over a new leaf! You only live once! Go for the gusto! Make every moment count! (Are you getting tired of these stupid exclamation points yet? I know I am!) +1\. CATCH A STD - 'Why Don't We Get Drunk and Screw' is not just an old Jimmy Buffet song, it's also a great way to get yourself infected. Just ask yourself: what would Jack Daniels do? Seize the moment! Seize the breasts! Seize the ankles and thrust them skyward! +I would suggest that fucking while drunk necessitates the non-use of a condom, assuming you're a guy like me and you enjoy getting your rocks off in a suitably-juicy manner. Condoms are for pussies! (Literally!) By shucking your condom you get to wallow in the mess afterwards, which can be quite thrilling when you get home to your wife, and you've got sticky semen all in your pubes and underpants. How do you explain that? It makes life much more interesting, more of a challenge. Challenges build character, and character attracts the ladies, so you can't lose, (other than losing your wife, but you knew that was inevitable anyway, right?) +2\. DO DRUGS? - (Disclaimer: Don't do any illegal drugs, for the sake of the rules governing postings on this website.) +Nancy Reagan said 'no' but I say 'yes'. Drugs are an American innovation. We should be proud to do drugs. It's our patriotic duty. Do drugs at work. Do drugs while driving. Do drugs in church. Hell, the Lord sees everything you do anyway, so why worry about it? +For a truly inspiring drug experience, I would recommend lighting up with your preacher. It could lead to some very spiritually rewarding conversations: +""Dude, I can almost see the Virgin Mary's pussy in that stained glass window."" +""Dude, don't call me Dude, call me Preacher Dude."" +""Cool, Dude, I mean Preacher Dude. Are you going to hand me back that spliff?"" +""Patience, Dude. Where'd you get this shit, anyway? It's fucking righteous."" +""Mrs. Abernathy. She grows it in her basement."" +""Cool. Mrs. Abernathy gave me a blowjob once. It was okay, but she was so worried about getting jizz on her dress, it was like getting a blowjob from a nun. I prefer it when a chick gets naked for a blowjob, or at least takes off her top, or unbuttons her choir robe."" +""I'm with you on that one, Preacher Dude. So listen, when you're baptizing a chick, can you, like, see her bra and shit when her outfit gets wet?"" +""Dude! Why do you think I became a preacher!"" +Doing drugs can make an ordinary experience into a life-changing event. Say someone slipped some LSD in your Dasani water, and you're up on your second floor balcony, trying to decide whether or not you can fly. If you survive, you'll probably end up in a wheelchair. The upside? Government disability checks for the rest of your life. Cool, huh? +Say you're out on a blind date, and your gal is not only built like a refrigerator, but that refrigerator was whupped by the ugly stick. Get high, turn off the lights, and suddenly you're making love to Pam Anderson (after she got out of the biz and gained 60 pounds.) +Doing drugs is the perfect solution to the imperfect life. Too bad they're so expensive. You can get around that by becoming a dealer yourself. The Comedy Central Series 'Weeds' would be a good reference for the dedicated do-it- yourselfer, as would just about any rap CD. +3\. RIDE A MOTORCYCLE - Ride with pride! Ride with abandon! Ride with your helmet hanging from the handlebars. But by all means, ride with life insurance, so your beneficiaries can reap the rewards of your stupidity. It's sort of like the old 'paying it forward' thing. You drop your bike in front of a semi and die. Your beneficiary buys a Harley with the money and then they get T-boned by Mrs. Abernathy pulling out of the church parking lot. It's a beautiful thing. It's like that old song, 'Will the Circle Be Unbroken' except the circle has chrome spokes. +4\. FUCK YOUR BOSS - I don't mean fuck with your boss. We all do that. I mean, have sex with your boss. Cum in her mouth, on her tits, in her asshole. Make sure everyone in the office knows about it. Take some surreptitious photos with your cellphone and pass them around. This is a guaranteed way to make you the king of the workplace for those glorious few days before you get fired. Might as well go out in style, right? +5\. FUCK YOUR IN-LAWS - For a guy, the sister-in-law is best, although the mother-in-law would do in a pinch. Start by getting her drunk. Cop an accidental feel and see how she reacts. Tell her you love big-thighed women. Tell her there's nothing like a soft mushy ass in the dark to make you feel like a man. Your in-laws want you to feel like a man, because you married their sister/daughter, and the desirability of their relative is in direct proportion to your manhood. +Again, you would want to take the compromising cellphone pictures of your naked in-law, except, in this instance, you would want to post them on their MySpace page. It's important to keep the family in the loop. You know what they say: the family that gets naked together stays together. (Okay, I'm not sure if that's exactly what they say, but it's close.) +6\. PISS OFF YOUR NEIGHBORS - So many people miss this one, and it's so easy. You have a stereo, right? Open the window that faces their house, preferable about two minutes after they turn their lights out. You want them to be just starting to drift off into slumberland when they are awakened by Ozzy Osbourne eating a chicken head. (I'm sorry if I have this reference wrong. I know nothing about Ozzy Osbourne, but figured his music would be a good way to annoy a neighbor.) +If you have a dog, make sure your dog barks all the time and shits in their yard. If they have a cat, put out some antifreeze. It's good for cats in cold weather. If your neighbors have any tools you can borrow, return them broken. It's the neighborly thing to do. You would also want to hit on the neighbors wife, or daughter, if she's old enough, but that's already a given if you're a guy like me. +7\. EAT WRONG - Why worry about eating right? We're all going to die anyway. Might as well enjoy what little of life we have left, don't you think? Fried food is a good place to start, and it's quite delicious, especially with lard and plenty of salt. Bacon, eggs, red meat, pork are all good choices. (At this point, I'd like to say something about sausage, which gets a bum rap. They say sausage is bad for the colon. Well, duh! You're supposed to eat it!) (Thank you, Jay Leno.) +8\. CHEAT ON YOUR TAXES - You know the rich cheat on their taxes, so why shouldn't you? If you're against the Iraq war, you have a duty to cheat on your taxes. If you're for the Iraq war, you already cheat on your taxes, since you obviously have no conscience or scruples. +The good thing about cheating on your taxes is; there are a lot of clueless babes working as IRS auditors. When you get audited, you might be able to extend the encounter to the point where more than numbers are getting crunched. There's nothing like that magic moment when your auditor's white blouse hits the floor and her nylons bunch up around her untanned ankles. It's the ultimate sexual conquest, and could net you a refund if you were to play your cards right. +9\. BUY HIGH, SELL LOW - Now that the housing bubble has burst, it's almost too late to buy high. But if you were to hook up with a super-optimistic slimeball-agent (which you could find with the help of the local Chamber of Commerce, since all those Chamber of Commerce bozos are super-optimistic slimeballs,) you could probably still find some rundown overpriced fixer-upper loser piece-of-shit home and make an offer twenty percent over the asking price. Getting a big-ass expensive house in a crappy, rundown neighborhood would be a sensible way to go. I mean, isn't that the mantra of the real estate biz? Location, location, location. +10\. MAINTAIN YOUR CAR - NOT! - Never, and I mean never, ever change the oil in your car. Okay, I'm stretching a metaphor here, but changing your oil is like changing your socks. Einstein never changed his socks, because he knew when he did, he'd just have to do it again the next day. It's a trap, I tell you! The oil companies already have enough of our money without us clueless consumers buying 5 quarts of 10W40 every three-thousand miles. To hell with Bob and Ray at Car Talk. Tell them to take their dipsticks and shove them up their asses! Sideways! +11\. PERSONAL HYGIENE? ARE YOU SERIOUS? If you can even spell 'hygiene' you take life way too seriously. You need to lighten up. Why brush your teeth every day? Think of all the other things you could be doing during those precious three minutes. You could be spying on your divorcee-neighbor, or chugging one more beer, or running up your credit card on a live webcam porn site. Personal hygiene is for babies and corporate executives, so, unless you fall into either category, just blow off that shower until you really, really, really need it. (Note: having a hippie girlfriend helps, as does being homeless.) +12\. RUN UP YOUR CREDIT CARD - If a deficit is good enough for the government, it's good enough for you. Don't be concerned about trying to live within your means. Only sissies live within their means. Splurge on something for the little lady, like a 48 inch plasma screen, or a new set of Craftsman tools. And don't be too concerned about the due date on your statement. Those credit card companies are so busy, they can't keep track of your due date. Just pay whenever you feel like it, which brings us to our next suggestion. +13\. PAYDAY LOANS ARE COOL - Actually, payday loans suck, but having more cash than any of your friends on a Wednesday night is cool. We live in a materialistic society. Money is more important than integrity or common sense. That's why you don't want to miss out on the opportunity to put your money to work for someone else. +As an experiment in creative financing, try paying your credit card with your payday loan. See how long you can keep it up before they come repossess your car. What the hell, you don't need a car anyway, (although I suppose a car could be a nice alternative to being homeless.) On second thought, perhaps you should pay your car loan with your payday loan and let them repossess your house instead. +14\. TELL THE TRUTH - Really, no one tells the truth any more. Lying has become the American way. It's the cornerstone of the free market. Where would Squibb, GM, and Philip Morris be if they didn't lie? Where would the president be if he didn't lie? What is the meaning of the word 'is'? I'm telling you, the truth is a death sentence. +Would you get that dream-job if you told the interviewer how you spend every waking minute surfing LIT for erotic stories that get you so turned on you cum all over your slacks? I don't think so. Lying is in your best interests, so if you want your life to go to shit, tell the truth. +15\. GET DISORGANIZED - Again, this one is so easy. They say start small: try designating a special spot in your home to put your mail so you'll always know where to find it. The floor is a good choice. Behind the couch is even better. Sticking it in between the pages of last week's Sunday paper is ideal. I like to put my mail in the freezer, but I'm funny that way. I also keep socks in there, in deference to Einstein, and I think there's a kitten back there too. (It's a long story.) +I like to look at disarray as if it was a pop star. (Perhaps I'm thinking of Desiree. Doesn't matter.) The important thing is to go for the gusto. Personally, I collect dust bunnies. I think they're cute, dancing around the floor every time I try to stumble from one room to the next, dodging McDonalds bags, and pizza boxes and clattering beer bottles. I call my cute little dust bunnies names, like the Seven Dwarfs. ""On Dancer, on Comet, on Donner, on Blitzen."" Wait a minute, did I just mention Comet? Isn't that a cleaning product? Well, excuse me. +16\. LET DOWN YOUR FRIENDS - Friends are overrated. Friends are a time-sponge. Friends are always coming around wanting this or that: ""Dude! You want to go to the game? I've got center-court seats, right next to Nicholson."" Or: ""Dude! You want my boat? The wife says I gotta get rid of it."" +Dude, you don't need a boat. You don't need to go to a noisy basketball game, smelling Nicholson's BO and the stinky perfume of his latest glamorous-whore- girlfriend-bitch. You need to be You, without all these distractions. If your friends knew they couldn't count on you for shit, they'd give you your space, and you could bloom like a three-week old dead rose at a funereal. Speaking of which... +17\. PROPER FUNEREAL ETIQUETTE - Bring a hooker to a family funereal. This is a big one. Not only can you alienate your relatives, but you can also make your in-law jealous (the one you've been fucking) and maybe even get a little three-way action out of the deal. But you want to be tasteful. Have your hooker dress in something conservative, like one of those dresses that laces up the sides so you can see she's wearing no thong underneath. Make sure the dress is black. Leather is a good choice, but vinyl is also acceptable. +Have your hooker burst into tears on cue. Make sure she's got cleavage showing so all the guys can stare at her heaving breasts, and get in trouble with their wives for leering. When the service is over, pay her extra to flirt with the father or brother or son of the deceased. You want this to be a memorable occasion, something to look back on with pride when you're watching your funereal-night sex tape some time in the near future, probably at a homeless shelter. +18\. RECOGNIZE YOUR HIGHER POWER - This actually loops back to the drug thing, but I thought I'd throw it in anyway. It's important to accept the things you cannot change, change the things you can, and keep a can for spare change, in case you run out of cash to buy your drugs. Plus, the Bible makes a good substitute for TP. +19\. GET A LIFE COACH - Life coaches can be quite expensive. Why not recruit a friend or neighbor for a life coach? Or better yet, support a homeless person by making them your life coach. The homeless are very wise. They know where the best dumpsters are located. They know which bleeding-heart liberals to accost outside the courthouse - (basically, the entire public defenders office.) They know how to stretch a dollar - unless they can't find a twelve ounce Mickey's Bigmouth, in which case they know how to stretch a dollar eighty-nine. +A good percentage of the homeless are mentally incompetent, which makes them all the more qualified to advise you in matters crucial to your well-being. Will you find a life coach who is also a sociopath, or a disenfranchised war vet suffering from PTSD? You would hope so. You need balance in your life. What better way to find balance than to get some coo-coo yahoo guiding your every decision? +As a last resort, if you can't find a suitable life coach, just get a life couch instead. Then, in order to achieve balance in your life, balance a beer on your belly while watching Doctor Phil. +20\. DANCE NAKED IN THE RAIN - Preferably in a public place. You want to get on the local news. You want to be charged with lewd and lavishes conduct. (Say that fast, three times in a row.) You want to be a sex offender, with a permanent brown stain on your record, so you can never get a decent job. You want everyone in the neighborhood to know you're a pervert. You want them to key your car, egg your windows, and maybe even kick your ass in the alley. +21\. BECOME A PORN ADDICT - I'm not talking about surfing the net. That's too easy. I'm talking about contributing to content providers like this very website. Write offensive, lame-ass disgusting porn, but post it under your real name. Send in pictures of you and your SO in unflattering sex positions. Or better yet, post video of her trying to get you hard when you haven't had time to recover from your last orgasm. This makes you look like a real girlie- man, a man that would make Arnold Schwarzenegger proud (to kick your ass.) When your SO finally does get you hard, hang upside down so you can cum on your own face for a change. (Hey, don't knock it if you haven't tried it.) +Embrace the porn community - your true soulmates. Nurture your relationships with other porn fans by frequenting the forums here at LIT. Start flame wars in threads about puppies and grandmothers. Be a know-it-all, both here at LIT and everywhere you go. +It all comes down to your ability to be an asshole. If you were a CEO at a big corporation, being an asshole would be expected, even demanded of you, and the rewards would be staggering. However, since you're not the CEO of a big corporation, your only reward for being an asshole will be the knowledge that you're well on your way down the long and winding path to a ruined life. +When you get there, look me up. I'll buy you a beer." +484,How to Save and Observe Earth Day,SuperHeroRalph,How To,2011-04-09,2011-04-09,2022-01-04 08:33:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-save-and-observe-earth-day,"Some money saving things to do, while helping to save Earth.","['Air Conditioning', 'Alternative Energy Vehicle', 'Ceiling Fans', 'Fossil Fuels', 'Hoover Dam', 'Organic Fruits And Vegetables', 'Public Transportation', 'Recycling', 'Solar Panels', 'Tankless Water Heater']",4.0,"_This is a Earth Day contest story. Please vote._ +* +For those of you who are concerned about saving the planet, here are some things you can do. +If you live in an area that has a lot of sunny days, get yourself off the grid by installing solar panels and using the sun to help power your house. Instead of buying electricity from the electric company, solar energy is a great way to save money. Unfortunately, the initial cost to install solar panels on an average home will run thirty to forty thousand dollars. +To help offset the initial expense, there are plenty of federal and state tax incentives to help shorten the period you'll have to wait to earn back your money. Just like anything else for a home from painting to installing windows, depending on the quality of the solar panels, different solar panel contractors will charge different prices for materials and installation. The key is to shop around and make sure whoever you hire is reputable, licensed, and an insured solar panel contractor. +Buy a tankless water heater to conserve on the energy it takes to heat your water. Tankless water heaters cost more to buy and more to install than regular water heaters, but you'll see a savings in your water and energy bill over the years. I've read good and bad reports about tankless water heaters. A little research will tell you if a tankless water heater fits your family's lifestyle. +For those of you who are considering a new car, think about an alternative fuel vehicle. With the prices finally coming down, this is the time to buy one. The electric and hybrid cars have dropped in price considerably and continue to decline in price every year that more people buy them. Moreover, there are federal and state tax credits that you can deduct at year end for going green with your vehicle. +Battery powered and hybrid vehicles are here to stay and don't kid yourself about gas prices going down, as a reason to buy another gas guzzler. Gasoline prices will continue to escalate, as more people use fossil fuels and as fossil fuel reserves diminish. Of course, to buy all of the above, solar panels, a tankless water heater, and a hybrid car is a huge outlay of cash. Yet, in time, not only will you receive your money back in energy costs but also you'll be doing your fair share to help save the planet by reducing your carbon foot print. +Yet, for those of us who don't have the money to buy solar panels to add to the roof of your house, take on the initial expense of a tankless water heater, or even sell and/or trade in your car for a battery powered or hybrid car, there are plenty of small things that you can do to save yourself money now and in the long run later. Turn your heat down lower by a degree or two and wear a sweater, take shorter showers, and drive less, slow down, and avoid jack rabbit starts. Believe it or not, depending on your speed and stopping distances, braking your car uses as much and sometimes more energy than stepping on the gas. In these times of disruptive and life altering recessionary transitions of high unemployment and home foreclosures, there are many smaller and less expensive ways to change your lifestyle, save you some money, and help to save the planet, all at the same time. +Bring your own reusable bags to the supermarket, instead of asking for paper over plastic. Of course, you won't save any money but it will help to save the planet. If we all did that, at the very least, used our own reusable bags, we'd notice the difference. Just think of all the trees we'd save by not using paper bags and all the energy we'd conserve and landfills we'd save by not using plastic bags. +When wrapping a package to send through the mail, instead of using bubble wrap and Styrofoam, use newspapers for packaging. The newspapers are kinder to our landfills than bubble wrap and Styrofoam. Besides, the money you'll save by not having to purchase bubble wrap and Styrofoam is money in your pocket. By reusing crumpled up newspapers for packing, you not only help to save the environment but also you'll give whomever you're sending your package to, something to read about that's happening in your part of the world. Not to mention if we all reused and recycled our old newspapers, we'd save tens of thousands of trees each year. +Instead of just hopping in your car to run endless daily errands, going to the bank one day and the Post Office the next, and the supermarket the next day, combine your errands. By bunching up your errands and planning your car trips, instead of going out every day, go out once or twice a week. Just the money you'd save on gasoline and the wear and tear on your car is money in your pocket and worth taking the time and effort to plan your trips. Also, there are even insurance discounts, when driving your car less than four thousand miles a year. +Of course, why take your car at all, when you can use public transportation? Many of us live a few blocks from the bus line, yet, instead of walking to and from the bus, instead of getting some exercise, we take the car. Imagine the money you'd save every week by taking public transportation to and from work. For those who don't like taking public transportation, then a good alternative is carpooling. Not only will you save on gas but also you'll save on the wear and tear of your vehicle by having the people in your carpool take turns driving to and from work. +Many of us live in a warmer part of the country where, instead of driving our cars, instead of taking public transportation, and instead of carpooling, we can walk, ride a bike, or even rollerblade to work. Of course, you don't have to do that every day. Walk, ride a bike, or rollerblade on the nice days, take public transportation one day or two days, carpool another day, and take your car one day. You'll not only help to save the planet but also will improve your health by shedding a few pounds with the physical activity. As an added benefit, you won't be as bored by the mundane daily drive to and from work. +It would be nice if we all had our own pit crew, but there are things that we can inexpensively do ourselves that will not only save us money now but also later. Maintain your automobile. Not only is a well maintained automobile safer but also it will save you money on gas and unnecessary and expensive repairs. Just regularly checking your tire pressure will not only save your tires and make them last longer but also will save you on gas, shorten your stopping distances, and make your car handle better. Even washing and waxing your car will automatically make you drive slower. Proven psychologically, being in a shiny, clean car makes you appreciate driving it by driving it slower. +When in your house, instead of keeping the blinds closed, the shades drawn, and the drapes pulled shut, open them up. Even if the sun isn't shining brightly, you'd be surprised how much warmth the sun will naturally give off to heat your home, even through the clouds. By taking advantage the sun's natural solar energy, whenever you can, you'll not only cut down on costly heating bills but also you will help save the planet by not wasting fossil fuels needlessly. +Take advantage of you electric company's offer to do a free energy audit inspection of your home. For free, they will change all of your light bulbs to more efficient energy conserving ones. Sure the energy efficient are more costly to buy later, but they last many times longer than regular less efficient light bulbs. Over time, by using energy conserving light bulbs, they will not only you save money on your electric bill but also will save much needed energy for the planet. +If you're not going to be home, if you're at work all day, if you're going away for the weekend, or taking a week or two week vacation away from home, then unplug all of those electronics. If you're not using them anyway, when you won't even be at home, why pay for the electricity? Not only will you save money on your electric bill but also you'll help to save the planet. Yeah, sure, it may be a pain-in-the-ass to reset all the clocks but, you'd be surprised of the savings in energy costs. Unplugging all your electronics is well worth your time and effort that it takes to reset them. +You wouldn't think that buying your fruits and vegetables from a local farmer helps to save the planet, but it does. By supporting local farmers not only will you buy fresher, cheaper, and better tasting produce but also you'll be saving energy and the environment by not having what you need to be trucked in from out of state. Buy fruits and vegetables from a local farmer. +Buying organic fruits and vegetables is another way to be kind to the environment. They may cost a bit more and not stay as fresh as long, but eating organic fruits and vegetables is a good way to help save the planet. We don't need all those pesticides and synthetic growth hormones that the big companies use to increase their profit margins. We don't need to inject all those chemicals in our bodies, especially for those people more at risk that have jeopardize immune systems, such as the very young and the very old. By buying organic fruits and vegetables, we'll be sending a message to the produce companies that we don't want them to unnaturally grow their produce to larger sizes, just to increase their profits at the risk of our health and the health of the environment. Artificially grown fruits and vegetables not only help to destroy the planet but may make us sick in the process. +Another way to help save the environment is to use the products that grandma used to use before the advent of all these new chemically concocted cleaners. Some of these new cleaners have a laundry list of chemicals that we can't even pronounce and don't know what they do to the environment or to us, for that matter. It may be decades before we discover that Pledge or Tide or Windex causes cancer. For sure, just because a product says that its new, improved, and safe to use doesn't make it any better than what grandma used. Instead of buying household cleaners that are loaded with chemicals that we can't even pronounce, use baking soda, peroxide, white vinegar, and ammonia, the things that grandma used to use and those things that will clean everything and anything without harming us and/or the environment. +We Americans not only eat too much food but also we waste too much food. Food scraps are a natural plant grower. Instead of throwing away food scraps and/or feeding leftovers to Buster, put it out in your compost pile. Your plants will show you by their improved growth how much they like the organic and non-toxic garbage by blooming bigger and brighter next spring. +Of course, this goes without saying, but I'll write it as a reminder anyway. Recycle, if you're not already recycling. Today, you can recycle practically anything and everything, not just cans, bottles, and plastics. From bottles, to cans, to plastics, paper, and cardboard, even unwanted, outdated, and broken electronics, you'd be amazed at how much energy savings recycling, as much as you can, will do, while helping to preserve the environment. +Although I don't recommend recycling toilet paper, did you know that recycled paper is cheaper to make than making paper from wood pulp. By recycling paper, think of it as saving a tree. Just because you've written on one side of the paper, turn it over and write on the other side. Instead of writing in ink, write with a pencil so that you can erase what you wrote and reuse the same piece of paper over again. Dry erase boards are a great way to leave notes without wasting paper. Saving trees starts with conserving and recycling paper. +All of us are guilty of wasting water. Just as there is plenty of water today, that won't always be the case. Maybe not in the lifetimes of most of us will the lack of water be a problem, but it already is for many communities, such as Las Vegas, Nevada. Lake Mead is already showing signs of drying up and disappearing. What happens to the Hoover Dam, when that happens? In the meantime, there are some simple things that we all can do that will save a lot of water without us even noticing. Use low flow showerheads. Instead of putting a brick in your toilet tank, buy a new toilet. With every flush, the modern toilets use much less water. +One of the best ways to save money and energy is to wear a sweater on those chilly days and lower your thermostat. If you have an old, outdated analog, thermostat, invest in a new digital, electronic one. The old thermostats are as inaccurate as they are inefficient and are a big fuel waster. +Especially for those people who live in a colder climate and who depend on fossil fuels to heat their homes in the winter, you can save a bundle by making sure your walls are insulated and you doors and windows are air tight. Ceiling fans, instead of running air conditioners and/or heaters are a good way to save on electricity. Have your ceiling fan blades rotate in the opposite direction during the winter to push the heat down and in the summer, then change the direction of the blades to help cool the room in the summer. +All of these things separately may not save you a great deal of money, but when putting them all together, they will save you a small fortune. If we all changed our lifestyles to include these energy saving things in our lives, we'd make a huge improvement in the health of the planet and our wallets. I hope these suggestions will not only save you money but also help to save the environment. +Happy Earth Day + _Please don't forget to vote, make a comment, and/or add me and this story to your favorite lists.

Always wondering where the next meal was coming from, always stressing over what bills to pay and how to give each just enough that hydro, gas, water or cable wouldn't be disconnected. Sometimes I was successful in keeping all utilities on the go and other times I just couldn't make it. +I remember doing my taxes in 1997 and my net income was a measly 8,700 something dollars. Now to some they might say, ""Hell I can make it on 8 grand a year!"" but let me tell you this pay had to cover two kids, my wife and myself. We had a mortgage that took up almost all of the 8 grand a year itself. Let me tell you there were many nights when I went to bed with an empty stomach just so my kids could eat a decent meal. +There were other times I had to suck in my pride and venture down to the local food bank just to be sure there was enough food to keep them filled. Pasta, potatoes, and peanut butter became my main staples. Not that I am complaining though because now we are doing ok and I believe we appreciate the things we have more than people who haven't had to struggle as much as us. +During this time it was heartbreaking when my kids wanted to go to a show with their friends and we just didn't have the money to offer them this treat. Every once in awhile we would splurge and rent a movie for them though. I honestly think our lack of funds gave us more quality family time. +During this period though I learned a lot of ways to scrape by and if any of you are struggling out there maybe they can help. +I have already mentioned a few like not eating but you can only keep that up for so long. +When you live way under the poverty level you can't be too choosey on your diet so cheap foods high in carbs worked for us. You can make a whole meal out of potatoes with the right spices. Pasta is by far the best and cheapest way to keep your belly full. I nice dish to have is a plate of pasta with a nice cheap salad dressing poured over the noodles (although spaghetti sauce isn't that expensive if you don't mind no name brands), and the nice thing about spaghetti is if you make a huge pot you can get almost three days worth of meals. If you have never eaten left over spaghetti fried you are missing out. It is still a favorite of mine. +Peanut butter is good for protein if you are not allergic too it. Even the cheapest brand is a little pricey but if you spread it thin it can last awhile. +And don't forget people even in major chain grocery stores pricing is just subjective. You can barter with managers in almost any store to get prices lowered. Grab a dinted can or a crushed box and make them an offer. Better sold then thrown out. +Lastly I will talk about the dreaded bills. We all hate them just like we hate taxes but they are a necessary evil. But there are ways around having to pay your bills or at least get deadlines extended. One of the most creative ways I found was learned on a fluke. In a rush to get the bills out I wrote the checks and by mistake I put the cable check in the phone envelope and the check for the phone bill in the cable envelope. When the checks weren't cashed I was a little confused but sure enough I received a call saying that I had made the mistake from each of the utilities. This gave me an extension of more than two weeks. It soon became an ""accident"" on a regular basis. Since most of these companies have so many people that do the bill collections I never had anyone inquire why it kept happening. +Another way to scrape is to get just basic everything. Cut the long distance on your phone and put a block on collect calls coming in. If you absolutely need television get the most basic package you can get. You might not have the entertainment of the movie networks but at least you have some entertainment. At night be sure to put more covers on your bed and turn your furnace to the bear minimum. When taking a shower go in with your wife and take one together (have sex before you go in though because if you haven't you might find yourself using up even more hot water than usual). +Anyway there are just some ways to scrape by when you don't have the cash in hand required to make it in this world. I hope I helped some of you out!" +486,How to Seduce a Busty Woman,JohnB73,How To,2006-09-10,2006-09-10,2022-01-04 08:33:38,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-seduce-a-busty-woman,A practical guide to wooing 'big-hearted' ladies.,"['Advice On Women', 'Big Breasts', 'Busty Women', 'Date', 'Dating How-To', 'Relationships']",4.11,"So, you have your eye on a special lady. The kind that you can see coming before she arrives. The type that sets off plate tectonics by going for a jog. If Monica Villreal was real, she'd turn a shade of green with envy. You want her, and badly. What do you do first? You put on the brakes, Sparky, and you read this. Hopefully, a little advice from someone who's been around the block a few times will keep you from pooching what could be a wonderful deal. +Firstly, no matter how clever or witty you think it may sound in your head, resist the temptation to make one of your first comments about the bosomy babe's obvious assets. Remarks like 'Those look awfully heavy; why not let me hold them for you?' or your best Chris Farley 'Holy shnikeys! Get a load of those sweater-monkeys!' are only going to get you one place, and it's not where you want to be. The Schmuck List. The truth is, just about every woman with such an obvious, appreciable asset has heard every joke man has ever dreamed up about it already. You won't be establishing yourself as a wit, just as another drooler. This is what we call A Bad Thing. +You should do your best to tuck that lustful admiration into the back of your mind and focus a lot more on getting to know the lady herself. As tough as it may sound, put her mind-boggling bazooms out of your mind. Instead, try asking a lot of open-ended questions about her. Hobbies, favorite foods, recent movies she's seen, classics she loves, and so on. This will let her know that you're interested in learning more about her than just her cup size. Women love to know that you want to get to know them as a person, not just as something as shallow as a tight, peachy ass or a ginormous pair of milk-jugs. Now, if you and she spend a fair amount of time together, and she finds your presence palatable, you're ready to move along to the next step. +Nextly, try a date or two, to get to know more about her. Again, try not to steer conversation back to her obvious assets, or she'll suspect ulterior motives behind your initial kindness. Also remember to be honest about yourself. To my experience, women can smell a phony like a fart in a car. If you're not a blow-dried James Dean ladykiller, don't try to puff yourself up like one. Likewise, you'll look awfully silly when you have her over to your place and don't even have the guitar skills of a 'white Jimi Hendrix', let alone a classic Fender Stratocaster. Be very careful of what you brag about, and how much. We all like to put on a good face, but keep it under control if you don't want to come off as another Pinocchio. Once the mask slips, it's as good as over. Another good tip is to leave your own drama at home. Don't lug baggage along onto a date. People go on dates to have fun, not listen to sob stories and throw pity-parties. If you want her to want to spend time with you, make her smile. Better, make her laugh. +But where humor is concerned, take your cues from her. Pay attention to the kinds of jokes she tells, and the things she finds funny. If she gets bold enough to tell a naughty joke, it's just her way of showing she can let her hair down, and proving that yes, she acknowledges her own sexuality instead of trying to deny it. NOTE: This is not a cue for you to launch into the story of the preacher and two nuns that accidentally walk into a donkey show. +In American society, it's not unusual for people to be on a medication or two for issues like depression, anxiety, or one of a dozen other mental instabilities. If the lady of your (wet) dreams labors under the weight of a reliance on a prescription, try to be cool about it. If she warns you about signs of her dosage wearing off, pay attention and tread just a bit lightly if you see them. However, if taking her meds includes wrapping a tourniquet around her arm to make her veins stand out and then self-injecting antipsychotic drugs, then you've got a genuine bunny-boiler on your hands. There's only one safe thing to do. Run. Run like the Antichrist himself wants your ass cherry, and all the Hounds of Hell are right behind him, waiting to tear apart whatever he throws them when he's done. Change your phone number too, if you've given it. Pursuit and wooing are one thing, abuse is another. Don't stick around for any, even if she's an H-cup. There are other fish in the sea. +Now, assuming you've been on a successful date, and she has expressed a desire to see you again (You lucky mook!) you've only got one more rule to follow. DON""T FUCK IT UP NOW. It's a lot safer to err on the side of discretion, rather than pushing for things to go farther than she wants, sooner than she would like. If she enjoys spending time with you, she'll want to spend more time around you. It's a beneficial, vicious social circle. People enjoy enjoying themselves. If you need some clues as far as pitching woo without going overboard, try watching the movie The Tao of Steve. Don't live it line for line, but take a few hints. +With any luck, the hints I've given you have gotten you her attention without tripping her creep alarm. It's up to you to handle the rest. Once you reach this point, go do that voodoo that you do. If things go well, you'll be the guy smiling because your voluptuous vixen is going home with you after club- time, instead of the sweaty, jaw-dropped loserboy who bellows over the music, 'Holy shnikeys!

Timing is everything. +Here are 5 things every Younger Guy (yes YOU) need to know about seducing older women: +1\. A Fountain of Youth: Whether she is 35, 45 or 65, there is a horny younger self hiding out deep inside this woman. Once you coax that part of her out to play it is like you are a fountain of youth for her. Take all the time you need to awaken this part of your lady. Your success depends on it. +2\. History Lesson: The good side has a tough flip side. She hasn’t been a young horny thing for a very long time. Her heart has been broken dozens of times. Men have used her and abused her. The working world has chewed her up. She has a history. +Lucky for you, you don’t have to undo her history, just respect it. Even though she might be ok with the age difference, the taboo view of family and friends needs to be eased. +3\. Insecurity Blanket: Makeup and Spanx may be helping your Older Beauty look as spectacular as she does. She is hot and you want her. That means at some point Makeup and Spanx will be gone and she will be her fabulous naked self. +What’s the problem? There’s a good chance that she is feeling badly about her body. Sags, ripples and dimples, spots, dots and wrinkles have appeared and she is not thrilled. +This is a major area for you to enchant her. Your Older may need reassurance. Whisper to her how soft her skin is, tell her how much you love to touch her and how attracted you are to her. +4\. Sleeping Beauty: There is a strong chance that your Lady has not had a toe curling orgasm in years or even ever before. Now I am a sexy sixty something who is having the best sex of my life. The much younger man who helped me discover how fun sex is, will always be special to me. Move delicately here and build trust so she can explain to you what she wants. And then, listen. +5\. Cyber Sex Secret: You may just find out that your lady is easily pleased in chat. Phone sex can be hot also but text sex has a nice advantage. She can keep it and read it again, and again. There is a good chance that she will feel safe and distant and that can open her up to major orgasmic activity. +For some of us, there is nothing hotter than texting romantic actions back and forth with the right partner. It is like being in a romance novel. Delicious. +The bottom line is that your Cougar is a survivor of love, romance and sex gone wrong. She has her history and she likes you because you have a shorter story than hers. She loves attention and may be starving for exactly what you have to offer her. +She may also doubt your motives and not believe that you are truly attracted to her. Let her control the pace. Show her you care about what is important to her. Let her take the relationship to the next level when she is ready. Flirt with her and remember…..she needs to feel smitten. +Notice I said SHE needs to feel smitten. You may be smitten but that doesn’t mean she is. If you are not sure if she is smitten, she is not. Read through the 5 tips above one more time. Give her time to see if she is smitten or not. It is super flattering to have a younger man interested, she just needs to see, feel and know it is real. Once she is smitten, the door opens. +Cougar romance is every bit as hot as you’ve heard. Take your time, set your older up for success and enjoy the ride! +[Bonus Turn On Tip: If you like exciting a woman, there are plenty of Cougars out there. Women saying no to you?

And how will I seduce the beardy beauty? Okay, maybe one or two of us males didn't have that alluring thoughts about bearded woman yet, but we don't talk about elf-lovers here or other confused people. Well, back to the theme. +How do we recognize a dwarven princess when we see her? First of all she'll have an axe, and a rather sharp one. That's the most important part, keep it in mind. We'll come back to that particular topic once or twice. +Next she's small and rather sturdy. I guess the average one is about three cubic feet. And of course she'll have that alluring beard that so makes our hearts beat so much faster when we think about women! But do take care: The male dwarves also wear beards, and they have axes also. If you by mistake try to make love to a male dwarf, he'd be very tempted to kiss you back, but with his axe. That could hurt a bit and may discourage you from further wanting to seduce a dwarven princess, but please don't give up so easily over a lost limb or two, the beardy princesses are really worth such minor sacrifices. +Okay, so how do we tell if it's an alluring female under that wonderful beard or a grumpy male dwarf? They don't wear dresses, mind you! Well, you can use the valued trial and error method by simply fingering under that beard, but you may run out of limbs if you have a streak of bad luck. Also, dwarven females are more rare than males, so you'd guess against some odds. You'll need something better it seems. Of course you may watch a nudist beach carefully and wait for a strong wind to lift that beard - did I mention it's very alluring? - but that may cost you some time and you may not have an eon to spare. +But rest assured, oh reader, for you don't really have to check under that (yes, I also think of it as alluring) beard, for we don't want to make love to just any dwarven female, but to a dwarven princess, and that makes things much easier. You simply have to watch for - that telltale little crown! Yes, it's that simple! Why did you not get it yourself, I wonder? Well, that's why I'm helping you after all, and I want to earn some money with the little book you are reading now of course. +So now we have identified our princess, how do you move forward once you've found her? Well, that's the hard part. And I'm not talking about her hard nipples, at least not right now, but more in a general way. They have that axe I mentioned above, mind you. You didn't forget it? Good. It'll get important again. +So you might think of simply grabbing her, carrying her away and starting the pleasure? Oh, sadly dwarves are a heavy load to carry away, and I'm sure you still remember that axe and value your limbs. So that won't work very well. There have been armored knights who have tried. In vain, as far as I know, remember that dwarves are a bit, well, naturally heavy, and reluctant to be carried away. Add the knight's armor needed to avoid that axe-issue and you'll get the picture. +Of course the romantic in each of us, and who wouldn't be a romantic when thinking of that alluring female beard, already knows the answer: We'll have to seduce her with a present. But take care because if you choose the wrong one that nasty axe may interrupt your attempts with the aforementioned unpleasant results. So what do we chose? Dwarves don't like flowers, those are for the elves. And yes, it's true what you've always suspected: The elves invented the Valentine's day. They founded the greeting card industry first, but then only used it for that flowerday. I'm glad you now know better. +Back to the perfect seduction present. What does a dwarven princess love most? No, aside of that body part of yours which is hopefully still attached because you heeded my advice. You'll get to use that, but later. Dwarven princesses of course like gems and precious metal, but unless you have Mithril hidden in your garden you most likely don't have the amount of valuables needed to afford anything she wouldn't get at home. So what else? Yes! Consider giving her something from your own world, something valuable! No, not this. Dwarves do know about football, but they won't like your fan articles of the New York Giants for some reason, nor of the Tennessee Titans. And don't ever try that joke about the club out of Orcland. The axe, you remember it, do you? Good. They also won't wear your favorite T-shirt, for, as already mentioned, they don't like dresses. And dwarves use our wine to do the dishes. Dwarves test the quality of alcoholics by seeing if it is strong enough to burn a hole in an inn's table. Sadly anything we drink is lacking in that quality. +So you are lost, are you? Don't despair. I'm here to help you get under that beard! You simply have to give her... High heels! Every woman loves shoes, but you should see a dwarven princess's eyes grow wide in delight when presented with pink high heels size 46 or higher! They simply love them, and they'll love you for it! Okay, the last part is dangerous, but that is what you wanted all along, isn't it? You'll get all the necessary details for this unforgettable adventure in my next guide, but let's just mention here that their nipples are able to get hard, and I mean hard. They cut diamonds with them when they are in heat. Additionally their breasts are nearly unmovable, showing their stony heritage, so a titty-fuck may be difficult to achieve, but it's not impossible. Why do you think a certain rock band named itself The Rolling Rocks or something like this? Ah, I see now you get the impression! I'm sure they got much satisfaction out of this experience and still sing a song about it! +About the final pleasure a dwarven princess has to offer I won't tell anything here, since you should buy my other guide also. Let's just say her mossy pussy is worth the work. Oh yes, I really wrote ""mossy"". They don't have hairs there, and of course moss likes to grow on wet stone... oh well, just read my guide. You can buy it like this one in the mentally deranged section of your local library. I've always wondered why they located it there... +Good luck with your short, hairy princess, and remember to vote right below for my guide!" +489,How To Seduce A Woman,Sshafer,How To,2003-12-15,2003-12-15,2022-01-04 08:33:40,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-seduce-a-woman,The art of seduction.,"['Married Women', 'Massage Work', 'Ready Massage', 'Roll Sleep', 'Single Women', 'Still Clothes', 'Strings Attached', 'Study Hall', 'Woman Met', 'Woman Tells']",4.24,"Guys, let’s get real. Very few of us look like Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt, and none of us does as well with women as we’re sure they do. These are facts, and if you think otherwise, stop reading now. +That said, I can’t believe the average man doesn’t do better with women.

I’ve seen a woman he’s treated like dirt come up to him in a bar, slap him silly and call him scum and worse, but when she walks away, he always turns to his drinking buddies and says, “She still wants me. She’s hot for my body.” +Now, I’m not the sharpest tack in the box, but when a woman tells me off and slaps my face so hard it still hurts two days later, I never think she’s hot for my body. +This friend of mine is not an Adonis, not even close, but he can’t walk past a mirror without stopping to check himself out and preen. Sad but true. +Guys, if this sounds familiar to you, you are in need of some serious help +Why do I succeed where my friend does nothing but make the women angry at him? +It’s simple really. A woman doesn’t want a guy who’s more hung up on himself than on her. A woman wants a man who thinks of her first and makes her feel safe and secure, and you should have learned this in high school. +You do remember high school, don’t you? I must admit most of high school is hazy, even to me, but what I do remember has stayed with me all my life. In my high school, the jocks or members of some other group you didn’t belong to always got the babes, and most of the time, all you got was rosy palm and her five sisters. Once in a while you got lucky and got laid, but what you didn’t know was the girl had already gone to bed with all the other guys in school and you were the last one on her list. But you never thought about why she was fucking you, you were just happy to be fucking a woman and a real one at that. +If it hadn’t been for dear old dad’s Playboy magazines and the lock on the bathroom door, most of us would have gone through high school drooling zombies from the hormones making us get a stiff dick every time we saw a girl’s erect nipples or down her blouse or caught a glimpse of a girl’s panties when she crossed her legs. Hell, some of us got stiff just imagining what a girl would look like nude. +High school is supposed to be where you learn the basics to get you through life, but what I remember most vividly about high school is what I learned in study hall; and it wasn’t from teachers. Study hall was where the girls let their hair down and talked about boys the way boys talked about girls but with brutal honesty. The girls in study hall taught me what they liked and disliked sexually, and it’s where I found out the jocks weren’t the studs they thought they were, at least not by the girls’standards. The jocks strutted around high school like peacocks, but according to the girls in study hall, most jocks climbed on a girl, pumped three times and were done but still expected the girl to thank him for a job well done. The poor guys didn’t know they were the butt of jokes in the girls’ locker room, and I suspect some of them still have no idea they are duds in bed not studs. By senior year, these fast eddy jocks had to go after the freshmen girls for dates because every girl in the three upper grades knew what they were like in bed and freshmen girls were too young to know better. But even freshmen girls soon learned these jocks were washouts in bed and spread the word to their sisters, aunts, cousins, and every woman they met. The jocks left high school eventually, but years later they were still jocks in bed because they continued to listen to themselves and not to the women. +I always listen to women and have used this knowledge to my advantage from high school to the present day. Women will do anything you ask if you listen to them. Don’t be shy, ask your woman what pleases her in bed. If asked, she’ll tell you, but you have to ask. So come on guys, ask your woman what pleases her and you’ll be surprised at what she tells you. When it comes to love-making you must listen to the woman and use what she tells you to make her feel as if she is the only woman in the world. +The biggest complaint I hear from women is that men don’t draw out the sex long enough. You guys know what they mean. You jump on the woman, hump her for a few minutes, pump her and come, then you roll off and go to sleep, thinking you’re some legendary stud because you have a woman in your bed. Well, guess again. Women don’t want a sprinter, they want a marathon runner. Let me put it this way, if you want good sex, you have to give good sex first. And remember this, if you’re not doing your homework, somebody like me will do it for you. +Women like different things because not all woman are the same. That would make for a dull world and the world of women is far from dull. +It takes at least five dates or nights to seduce a woman properly. The first couple of dates we go out to eat or drink and I find out what she likes in the way of sex and what turns her off completely. To do this you might have to tell her you’re doing research for a book or some other lie, but it doesn’t matter; get the information. I don’t make any stupid or sudden moves on the first two dates and this gains the woman’s trust. On our third date I bring the woman back to my place to watch a movie, and as the evening progresses, I can tell whether we’re going to end up in bed or not. We kiss and cuddle in the living room, but once we move into the bedroom, the woman is naked and ready. I ask her if she would like a massage, and of course she does. Every woman likes to be pampered, and I get out the scented lotion and warm it up by running hot water over the bottle. With the lotion in hand, I ask the woman if she would like to be blindfolded, and surprisingly enough, most women agree because it excites them. I blindfold her, start the massage and work my way down her back starting at the nape of her neck and going down to her toes. Doing this properly takes about an hour, and when I finished her back, I roll her over and do the same thing to the front of her. We talk as I massage her and this relaxes her. It doesn’t matter what we talk about as I masage her as long as it’s what she wants to talk about. I still have my clothes on, and I usually surprise the women when I tell them we’re not going to make love that night. I just hint at what we’ll do the next night and send them home. +Now some of you might think I blew it but don’t believe it. The woman will be back the next night, and this time I fix a meal and put on some soft music to set the mode as we eat dinner and chat. After dinner, I do the dishes real slow to tease her and make her want to make love. Then we go off to the bedroom. Once again she gets naked, I blindfold her, and she is ready. I massage her as I did the night before, but when I finish the massage, I go to work on her erogenous zones. I kiss and suck her neck, her nipples, and of course her clitoris, and I tongue her into oblivion by spending a lot of time working on these areas. +I still have my clothes on like the night before, and no matter how much she begs, I leave my clothes on. I save that for the next night, and believe me, she will be back the next night because I’ve had women show up at my door wearing nothing but a trench coat, heels and a smile. +On the third night, I massage her as I did the previous two nights but this time I take off my clothes and we finish up by making love. But take your time making love. Don’t go off in three minutes and then roll off and go to sleep. Take time to tell her that it was the best sex you ever had and she inspired you to new heights. Cuddle with her. Hold her in you arms. Make her feel as if you had a religious experience when she had an orgasm, but the key is for her to have an orgasm before you do or time things so you have orgasms at the same time. +In the example above, I was talking about single women. Seducing married women requires a different approach, and the reason is simple, married woman have children. +A married woman with a teenage boy will be ready to be seduced because her son’s friends, young and always horny, can’t resist flirting with every female they meet, and the mother will be turned and excited by their attention. Approach her at the right time, flatter her, prove to her there’s no way she’ll get caught, and you can skip the three days of massage and go right to bed. It sounds easy but if you want her to keep coming back to your bed, you have to pay attention to her needs and make her feel appreciated. +A married woman with a teenage daughter is a different matter all together. When the daughter reaches dating age and starts bringing home her boy friends, the mother sees her daughter as competition and starts flirting with the young men. The horny young men will respond, of course, and flirt with her, but she will never follow through with the young men and winds up frustrated and horny, especially when she looks at her husband and wonders why he doesn’t fuck her more often. Approach her when she’s like this, tell her she’s sexy and desirable, and she will start thinking about having an affair. Continue to do this every time you see her, and sooner or later, she’ll look in a mirror, think she’s still got one hell of figure, and wonder why her daughter is getting laid and she’s not. And when she’s in this state of mind, she’ll track you down and drag you into bed, but remember, pay attention to what she wants or it will be a one night stand. +The only trouble you might have with seducing married women can be a big one, if you let it. The married woman will start the affair by saying she doesn’t want any strings attached, she’s in your bed strictly for the sex, but be forewarned, they may say this but they don’t mean it. After three or four times together, she will get possessive and start making demands on your time and freedom. She’ll start calling everyday to check up on you, and if she has trouble reaching you, the next time she calls she’ll give you the third degree and want to know where you were and what you were doing. +This is the time to call it quits before she starts saying she wants to divorce her husband so she can be with you all the time. This is fine if you love her, but if you don’t, let her down gently. Remind her she’s the one who wanted no strings attached, has children who need her, and a husband she loved at one time, but most importantly, be honest and tell her you don’t want to break up a home or get married. This brings most women to their senses, and the break will be clean with no acrimony. +Guys, if you’re married and reading this, listen up; what I described above can happen to you, and if it does, it will be your fault. Put the romance back in your marriage. Never take your wife for granted. Take the time to make your wife feel special and loved. You have everything to gain by doing these things, and a lot to lose if you don’t. +You single guys need to take to heart what I’ve written and your love life will improve immensely. Single women crave love and attention, as we all do, and if you listen to a single woman and take your time seducing her, she will reward you with the best sex you ever had. Married women are the same as single women, but they’re also eager to learn and more willing to try new things. Married women think life has passed them by, and you can release the sexual animal inside them if you treat them the right way. +Let me give you an example of what I mean about married women. I worked with a married women once at a nature center a few miles from my home. She was forty and had been married fifteen years, and I was thirty-five and single. Everyday we worked together mapping animal trails, and one day she started flirting with me. I flirted back, and after three or four days of this, we were making love on the grass. She was the most honest woman I ever met and told me she’d started flirting with me because her marriage had fallen into a rut. All I did in the beginning was ask her what she wanted to do sexually, and from then on, she was willing to try anything and everything; the wilder the better. Most of what we did was her idea, but I can tell you it was some of the best sex I ever had. We lived out every sexual fantasy she’d ever thought about, and by the second week, she was coming to my place every morning before work and every night afger work before she had to drive home to hubby and her kids. I finally broke off our relationship when she got possessive but those five months were intense. There is something to be said for older women because it has been my experience they are more than willing to try new things. +There is an unlimited and untapped field of sexual delights out there if you men would just pay attention to what I’ve written and listen to the women you meet. +Good hunting and have safe sex." +490,How To Seduce Your Sister-in-law,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-10,2008-05-10,2022-01-04 08:33:41,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-seduce-your-sister-in-law,Surefire plan to have a relationship of incest or taboo.,"['Blowjob', 'Brother', 'Brother-In-Law', 'Father-In-Law', 'Incest', 'Massage', 'Mother-In-Law', 'Seduction', 'Sister', 'Sister-In-Law']",2.5,"Below are listed explicit and graphic instructions on how to seduce your sister-in-law. These instructions will also work if you are a woman hoping to seduce your brother-in-law. Also, with just a few modifications to your dialogue, switching sister for mother and brother for father, these principles can be successfully applied to your mother-in-law, as well as your father-in- law, if you are so inclined. +No matter if you call it incest or taboo, sex with your in-laws has that certain dangerous feeling because it is forbidden sex. Nonetheless, it's spring and there are hormones flying everywhere and you haven't gotten laid or even received a blowjob in a while? It's been that long? Wow! That's a record. Now, I understand why you are humping my leg while reading this. +Warning: Do not try this at home unless you are an experienced incest/taboo professional or if you are so desperate to have sex with your sister-in- law/brother-in-law or mother-in-law/father-in-law and are so hot for them that you just don't care. +Warning: This system of surefire incest/taboo forbidden instructions for fornication is best used if you are in the process of divorcing your spouse anyway. Make sure you have your bags pre-packed, have removed all breakable objects from the house, and parked your car where your wife/husband can't find it flatten your tires of smash your windshield. So, now you are good to go. +Sorry, this is the last warning. This system of surefire incest/taboo forbidden instructions for fornication is best if your sister-in-law is a hottie, your brother-in-law is a hunk, your mother-in-law is a MILF, and your father-in-law is a FILF (?). Otherwise, it's just nasty sex magnified by the fact that it is incest/taboo and forbidden sex with the entire ugly family of women/men. +I guess it could work, too, if you are only having sex with her sister/brother or mother/father to get back at her/him. That's always a good plan, so long as your wife doesn't own and know how to load and fire a shotgun and your husband has more of a sense of humor and a sense of forgiveness than he does a temper. +Okay, are you ready to begin? Let me look at you. Tuck in your shirt/blouse and straighten your hair. Yeah, licking your palm to flatten down your hair is always better than using a hairbrush or a comb. Never mind. Dude/girl, when did you brush your teeth last? Never mind. +Let's go in the living room to put our little plan to action. There she/he is the fount of information, the keeper of every little dirty secret, and the oracle on the subject of her/his mother/father or her/his sister/brother...your wife/husband. Look at her sitting curled up on the couch with the cat. Look at him sitting in his chair while cleaning his gun. Yeah, sure she was prettier when you married her, and so, what if she gained a few, okay dozens of pounds. She still looks good, kind of, not really, not at all. Yeah, sure he looks that same when you married him as he does now, only he's fatter, balder, and meaner. Girl what were you thinking? +Gees, Dude, when was the last time she washed her hair. Wait, what's that smell? Did the cat just eat tuna? Woman, when was the last time he took a bath and changed those socks? That's just nasty. +Just look at her or him and smile. Go ahead, give her or him a little wave as you hand her the quart of ice cream and/or a case of beer. Show her or him your best expression of devotion that you love her or him. Good, if there were an Oscar for this performance, you'd win. +Now, I understand your reasoning for the need to have sex with her/his sister/brother or mother/father. Having sex with anyone but your wife or husband is an improvement. Besides, so long as you can justify that having sex with her mother/father or sister/brother isn't really cheating, it's just spending time with her family and it is okay. +Look at her or him now. Her mother looks better than she does or his father looks better than he does. Definitely, her sister does, too or definitely his brother does, too. I think she/he lost another tooth, a front tooth. +Can I ask you a question? Were you drunk when you married her/him or did you think that she/he had money? Never mind. +Let's begin. Does your wife or husband drink? What does your wife drink? Vodka? What does your husband drink? Boilermakers. Perfect. Make her/him a stiff drink. Be nice to her/him. Rub her feet or rub his cock. Talk about her/his family and what it was like growing up with her/his sister/brother and mother/father. +Now, is the time to put the tape recorder on the coffee table to capture all the moments of family history. +""What's that for?"" +""I don't want to forget anything you say, Honey."" +""Oh, that's so sweet."" +Wow, she/he fell for that one and gulped that drink down in a hurry. Quick, make her/him another one before she/he protests. +Now, ask her/him about her/his childhood while subtly asking her/him questions about her/his mother/father and sister/brother. You want to find out everything to know about them so that you can use that against them in their seduction. +Specifically what information you need to know is the favorite colors, books, songs, foods, and drinks of your mother-in-law/father-in-law and/or sister-in- law/brother-in-law. Whatever else nonsense that your wife/husband blurts out while you are taping her/his thoughts is just extraneous information. Colors, books, songs, foods, and drinks, especially of the alcoholic kind are what will get you laid. +Now, if you were the observant son-in-law/daughter-in-law, you'd know much of this information already. You'd know the drink of their choice, their favorite color, books, movies, and pretty much all that you needed to know to seduce her or him. +""Colors? My mother/father loves blue. I don't know what my sister's/brother's favorite color is. My Mom's/Dad's favorite thing is her/his thick pile terrycloth bathrobe. She/he loves how it feels. You know that, we buy her/him a new one almost every year. Oh, and she/he loves Polo/Ambush cologne/perfume. Books? My sister/brother never reads, but my mother/father loves anything by Danielle Steele/car magazines and my Mom/Dad loves Billy Joel/stripper music."" +""Okay, this is nice learning about your family. Continue please. I need, I mean, want to learn more about them."" +""I have a funny story about my Mom/Dad when she/he was vacationing in Jamaica (here it comes, the good part). She/he got drunk on slow gin fizzes/boilermakers. My Mom's/Dad's back is where her/his erogenous zones are. If you want to have sex with my Mom/Dad (ewww, gross yuck), just ply her/him with booze and give her a back massage. She blew her or he received a blowjob from his Jamaican masseur while he/she was rubbing her/his back."" +Well, there you go. A small change in plan, but a surefire one to work, instead of doing her sister/brother, I'd go for her mother/father. +Good she's/he's sleeping. I'd leave her/him there, if I were you. She's/he's way too heavy to carry upstairs to bed. Besides, that's what you did the last time she/he was drunk and sleeping when you stripped her/him naked and then called over all your buddies/girlfriends for a poker game/Tupperware party. That was fun. She/he was better looking then. I'd don't think they'd come over now, the way she/he looks. +So, next week when she flies to Addison Texas for the big Mary Kay conventions or he flies to Amarillo Texas for the big beef barbeque cook-off is when you put your plan in action. +For those of you who just joined us and/or don't want to read the entire How To Seduce Your Sister-in-law/brother-in-law, there was a change in plan from seducing your sister-in-law/brother-in-law to seducing your mother-in- law/father-in-law, let's quickly recap and go over how it's done. +1\. Get your wife/husband drunk 2. Interrogate her/him about her sister/brother and/or mother/father while she/he is under the influence of excessive alcohol. 3. Tape record the conversation 4. Ask her/him personal and revealing questions about her/his sister/brother and/or mother/father. 5. Use all that personal information to your advantage in seducing your sister-in- law/brother-in-law and/or mother-in-law/father-in-law. 6. Good luck +A week later, you drive your wife/husband to the airport and kiss, er hug, shake her/his hand, er pat her/him on the back good-bye. +""Don't forget, I asked my Mom/Dad to check on you."" +""Okay. Bye."" +That evening, there you are feeling sexy while wearing nothing but your plush pile terrycloth bathrobe and generous amounts of Polo/Ambush cologne/perfume. With your collection of Danielle Steele novels/car magazine at your side and Billy Joel/stripper music playing on the stereo, you sit there reading while sipping a, actually forcing down (yuck), a slow gin fizz/boilermaker. +""Oh, hi, Mom/Dad. I didn't know you were coming over. I would have put some clothes on. I'm glad I'm at least wearing my thick pile terry cloth bathrobe."" +""Doreen/Freddie asked me to check on you. I didn't know you like Danielle Steele/car magazines or Billy Joel/stripper music."" +""I love Danielle Steel/car magazines and I love Billy Joel/stripper music. Can I fix you a drink? All I have are slow gin fizzes/boilermakers."" +""I'd love a drink."" +Now, wait until she's/he's consumed her/his third drink and then speak your part. +""You look tense. Do you have a backache? That chair is not the most comfortable."" +""Yeah, my back has stiffened up a bit."" +""Here, come over to the couch, put your head in my lap, and I'll give you a nice back massage."" +""Really, you'd give me a massage?"" +""Yeah, sure."" +Now, this is the part where you're tipsy mother-in-law/father-in-law comes over to where you are sitting on the couch and puts her/his forehead on your thigh while you gently massage her/his back through her/his blouse/shirt. +""I'm just going to pull up your blouse a bit and unhook your bra."" Or ""I'm just going to loosen your pants and unzip your fly to give you more room."" +There you are following my directions to how to seduce your sister-in-law changed at the last moment to mother-in-law.

You can feel your father-in-law become aroused with your massaging of his back. Your pussy is moist with desire for him and your thick pile terry cloth bathrobe has opened enough to expose your round, succulent breasts to your father-in-law. You feel his hand reach up and caress your breasts as his fingers pinch and pull your nipples. You can see the bulge that his cock makes in his underwear and you reach down, pull out his cock and stroke him to a harder erection before leaning down to take his cock in your mouth. You're sucking his cock. +Success! You've done it, seduced your father-in-law by using my surefire instructions.

It is such a relief and a rush to finish a story or a poem and know that it is done. I don't know about you, but I write for my own enjoyment first but I have become a big fan of receiving monetary reimbursement for my creative efforts, too. +So, how do I go about it and more to the point, how do _you_ squeeze some pennies from your words of art? The first step is possibly the hardest and this involves practising your writing 'til you're at a stage when you're confident your stories are worth something. There's no time limit on this, it could be years, months or decades worth of work before you feel the time is right. Once the confidence is in place there are a few different avenues you can pursue. + **1, Enter Competitions.** +Just like this one. Now, I'm not going to promise you a small fortune from this avenue but you get so much more out of writing for competitions, the Literotica ones in particular, than just money. +For a start you get a theme to write on. Sometimes when the ideas are backed up and the words just aren't flowing a theme can be the kick-start you need to get writing again. +Also, you get to join in with the banter and laughter in the official discussion threads started in the AH by the gracious and glorious Oggbashan. You'll make new friends, you'll have a shoulder to cry on when your characters just won't get it on no matter how hard you try and you'll get a chance at winning the coveted last place ™ award. +And that's before you win yourself a prize. Now I know some of you are doing the maths, counting up the number of entries into this competition and some of you are wondering if it's really worth the effort. Well, if you don't join in you definitely won't win the prize but if you do? Well, you never know your luck. + **2, Personalised stories.** +There are people who would like a story written for them for their own private use and they are willing to pay an author to write these tales for them. You can sell your services on the online auction sites, though you may have to be careful about the way you word your adverts. I have done this in the past but I did not just write erotica, I found myself writing romance, adventure and even children's stories one Christmas and I thoroughly enjoyed it and made a good chunk of money for my efforts, too. +How do you find the people willing to pay? This is a bit hit and miss, I'm afraid but having your stories accessible on Literotica is a great way to advertise your wares. I have had several enquiries for my writing services in my time submitting here at this site. + **3, E-Publishing.** +Some people will tell you that it's easy to get published online, that e-books are insignificant and it's not worth your time to submit to E-Publishers. I'd like to respectfully disagree. +The E-book business is growing massively, in fact it's the fastest growing part of the books industry. It's a great way to make money and is a way into print publishing, if that is what you desire. E-books have a lot to offer and there are a lot of reputable publishers out there. +The first challenge is finding out who to submit to. You can find lists of E-publishers online and calls for submissions with a simple google. I suggest you always check out the predators & editors website to check the status of your chosen publisher. It's a great website which posts warnings on bad publishers and let's you know who to trust with your work. +Once you know who you want to submit to, **check out their submission guidelines and follow them down to the very last letter.** I cannot emphasise this point enough. You need to get your document to look just how they specify or you run the risk of your story not being read at all. +Publishers will expect you to write a cover letter with a brief introduction of yourself and your story. Don't be afraid to sing your own praises, mention prizes won, praise given of your work but keep things relevant. +The hardest part is often the synopsis of your story, it's hard to sum up your work of art in just a paragraph. Remember this is not a blurb for advertising purposes, this is to give the editor a flavour of your story so you need to say how the story ends and what the plot twists are. Keep it brief, write a bare bones outline of your story and that should do the trick nicely. +And when you receive a rejection letter (it will happen, it's happened to me a few times) don't let it destroy your hopes and aspirations. It is just an indication that you need to either: +a) Work on your story some more. +b) Send your story to a different publisher. +It is certainly not the end of the world. +Also, just a note about pen names. If you do not want your erotica published under your real name then you need to come up with a convincing Pen Name. You will not be able to use your Literotica nickname, you need to come up with a first name and a last name that works for you. + **4, Print Publishing** +This is by far the hardest nut to crack, but will be the shortest of all my points. All the points about E-publishing are valid for print, too. +A lot of the big publishing houses do not accept unsolicited stories, but again you should check online and see what is out there. If you are serious about print, you can look into finding an agent who will help you get your work out there (for a fee) but that isn't terribly easy I'm afraid. +As Victoria Blisse (my pen name) I am an author in print and I came to that via my E-publisher. A lot of them now offer Print on Demand (POD) options and I do believe this is the best way to go if you want to smell your own book. (Yes, we all do it. New book smell is addictive.) +So in conclusion, with a little faith, some hard work and plenty of wonderful words you should be able to make money from your hobby, no problem. Please remember me when you make your first million, okay? +Good Luck!" +492,How To Send Love on Valentine's Day,English Lady,How To,2005-02-02,2005-02-02,2022-01-04 08:33:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-send-love-on-valentines-day,Hints and tips on expressing your love.,"['Bear Mind', 'Card', 'Gift', 'Inside Frame', 'Love Valentine', 'Overtly Sexual', 'Pick Card', 'Valentine', 'Valentine Card', 'Valentine Day']",4.39,"It's almost Valentine's day again and time to express your feelings to your loved one.Here I am to help you out along the way with some ideas and suggestions to get your creative juices flowing! +So where do we start?

Don't go for anything overly sentimental. Avoid sloppy messages of love as a card proclaiming undying passion from a person you barely know is more ""Scary stalker alert."" than ""Seductive sweet admirer."" +I would say for a card that has a bit of cheeky humour to it. Something that when your beloved opens it he or she will exclaim ""aww how sweet."" and smile. A smile means they're flattered and that you may be getting a date from your Valentine's efforts. +Also bear in mind the persons age and personality. Pick a funky card for a young funky girl or guy and keep it to more sedate and classic images if you're courting a mature lady or gentleman. Of course this is a general rule,go with what you feel is right. +Once you've chosen a card for your crush you have to personalise it. Do you want this person to work out that you sent the love token? If not you might consider getting someone else to write it or using a stencil to disguise your writing. Don't go for the letters cut from a magazine look as that is more suitable for a threatening letter than a card of love. +So what do you write? Steer away from poetry unless you regularly write it as it will only look forced, causing your crush to cringe. I would say keep your message short and keep it flirty. Compliments are good but keep them light and flirty and not overtly sexual. Above all be sincere and write what you feel. However do not write ""I love you and want to be with you forever."" in your card, even if you do mean it. Why? It is mostly likely to scare the object of your affections as they may not feel the same about you and could be intimidated by such strong feelings. +How do you send your Card? Well if you know a work or home address posting the card is probably the easiest thing to do. Also it means you do not have to hand over the card face to face. If you know the address but don't trust the postal service, hand deliver it. However you run the risk of being seen if you do this. If none of these options are available leave the Valentine's somewhere you know your crush will see it. So if you work with them leave it on their desk, If it's a person who works on a till leave it at the end of the check out or if you cannot do any of these you will have to hand the card over personally or trust a good friend to do it. +If you find you need to hand the card over personally, don't hang around for them to open it! Pass over your well chosen, beautifully worded love token and walk away. Why? Well then if they aren't interested in you they don't have to say so to your face and you don't have to face that rejection. If they do want to thank you for the card they can come and find you (don't go to far away!) and maybe then you can get that date! +Now how about if you're already in a relationship? Well it can still be as difficult to find the right card. Let me give you a hint. Is your partner a sucker for cute cuddly animals and toys? Pick a card with a snugly bunny/teddy/doggy/kitty on it. Is your relationship very sexual? Get a cheeky card with a horny devil or a dirty joke on it. You see what I'm getting at don't you? Use your inside information and pick out a card accordingly. +Personalising your card should be a bit easier too. Just say what you feel. Again keep away from poetry unless you regularly write it and your partner enjoys reading it. I would say keep to your own words and be sincere. Don't just write ""Dear partner, Happy Valentine's day. Love?"" As that seems cold and unimaginative. Even if you just manage a short line expressing how you feel it is much better than nothing at all. + **Presents.** +We shall start out with all you unrequited folks again. You've got your card, written it out and sealed it but now you think you want something to go with it. What do you choose? A lot of this will depend on the person you're sending it too. +Some people love soft and cuddlies. Check out if they have lots of key rings or if they have cuddlies on their desk , if they do a soft toy is the way to go. Make sure it's a good quality one and also chose one that has subtle muted colours. Bright colours tend to look a bit cheap and tacky and therefore are best avoided. Also this is one of those cases where big is not always better. A small discreet teddy is sweet and sincere but a massive cuddly animal is overwhelming and maybe even a little worrying! +Does the person have photos in their wallet/purse or on their keys? Do they have photo's stuck all around their monitor and desk? Maybe you could get them a photo frame. Please note, putting a picture of yourself in the frame is probably not a good way to go as you don't want to look too cocky or vain. On the other hand, putting a photo of the object of your desire inside the frame is probably going to make them worry about how you got that photo and if you have others at your disposal! Place a simple heart inside the frame or write a simple message like ""guess who?"" or ""Be my Valentine."" on a piece of paper and slip it behind the glass. This personalises the gift a bit without making it too personal. +Flowers may go down well with most women and maybe even some men. Red roses are expensive around Valentine's day so see if you can find out what your crush's favourite flower is and send a bunch of those, as long as their in season! Get flowers delivered or leave them on the doorstep/desk of your loved one. If you choose a message card, keep it sweet and simple. +If you want to go for roses remember that red symbolises love and respect. Dark pink will show your appreciation, white your adoration and orange shows your enthusiasm and desire. A good cover all is the yellow rose. Yellow symbolises friendship and joy. +Now then other possible gifts are a copy of their favourite film on DVD or video, (you need to know what kind of player they have for this) a CD or tape of their favourite artist/band, a book by their favourite author...and, well you get the idea. Use what information you know about them to decide on a gift which they will actually like, use and treasure. + **Gifts to avoid:** +Chocolates. +Unless you know your loves favourite type don't bother. You may end up setting off a persons allergies or they might not like the type of chocolates you buy them. Same goes for any other edible treats. +Perfume/aftershave. +For one, it seems to imply you think your prospective lover stinks and for two, you probably don't know what perfume/aftershave they like. If you know what scent they usually wear then, and only then, maybe you could get away with a scented present. Bubble bath, body lotions and potions all come under this same general rule too. +Overtly sexual objects. +Yes I'm talking hand cuffs, paddles, whips, boxer shorts, lingerie and dildoes. This may work in a Literotica story but in real life when a person receives something of this ilk from a relative stranger it's going to freak them out! +Now what do you give if you're already in a relationship with someone? +This will all depend on what stage of a relationship you're at. If the relationship is still young you're probably best thinking along the lines of the unrequited love gifts; you will have a distinct advantage as you'll know your loved one that much better and will be able to personalise the gift easier. +If you've been in a relationship for a fairly long time then there is a chance you've done a lot of the things already mentioned. Maybe this year you want to think of something a bit different to give your loved one Well Lets see what I can come up with for you. +Sexual stuff. +You're in a long term relationship so you can get sexy! What is your partners favourite kink? If you're relationship isn't that spicy look into getting some simple foreplay items like love dice.. One dice will have directions like ""lick, nibble, kiss, stroke etc"" and the other will have parts of the body ""nipple, lips, ear, toes etc"" and you simply follow the instructions. You can get all kinds of games which have the same kind of foreplay fun principle to them so keep your eyes peeled. +Another fun sexy product is edible body paint. I don't have to draw you a diagram for you to work out how to use this one do I? If you don't want to buy expensive commercial products make your own lovers buffet with soft fruits, syrups and cream and use your lover as the plate. +Lingerie is sexy, well it can be if you put some thought into it. Gentlemen, know your partners size before walking into Anne Summers or Victoria's Secret or some other such lingerie filled store. Remember keep to your partners tastes, don't buy something you think you'd like to see her in if you think it will embarrass her. +Same goes for you ladies. Make sure your guy will like the sexy undies you buy for him; you want to see him wear them time and time again. Unless they're edible panties of course. +Another sexy present you could give this year is an erotic story written by yourself. This is the one case where I say just go for it. All you need to do is write down a memory or a fantasy that you and your partner share and you're cooking. It doesn't have to be a novella and as long as you spell check your work (you can find free online spell checkers if you don't have Works Word Processor) and read it through a few times to make sure it makes sense I am sure it will be well appreciated. Print it out and slip it in with the Valentine's card or send it via email to your loved one as he or she works and get them in the mood for love. +Sentimental gifts. +If you're not going for sexy this Valentine's day then the only other option really is sentimental. (Though there is nothing stopping you doing both!) Just because we're getting emotional here doesn't mean we have to get sappy though. +Lets start out with Jewellery. You don't have to spend a small fortune to buy a nice bracelet, necklace or earrings for your loved one. Now rings are good too but if you're not already married or planning to propose make sure your boyfriend/girlfriend isn't going to jump to conclusions when you hand them a little ring box. That is definitely not something you want to explain your way out of! +Then there is the classic combination of strawberries and champagne. You don't have to follow the classic to the letter, pick a bottle of your sweethearts favourite tipple and some appropriate nibbles (truffles, exotic fruit, selection of cheeses) and set up a little picnic for her/him when they come home. It's not really sexy to give dearly beloved a 6 pack and a packet of cheetos unless you consume them together and share a romantic interlude. +Clothing. This is an option, but one that needs plenty of thought. This isn't the occasion to buy him a bumper pack of socks and it's not the time to buy her a big woolly cardigan either. Clothes given for Valentine's day have got to be sexy. Make sure you know your lovers size and some of their likes and dislikes first. You definitely don't want to buy them something they'll never wear. It's Valentine's day so think sexy and special. Buy them something they can wear on a big night out with you, maybe (hint, hint) dinner that night. +Of course, all of the gifts I mentioned for the unrequited folks count for you too. I mean you have years of knowledge about your partner and so should be able to come up with some pretty good personal gifts. That really is the key. You want to show your partner that you love them and cherish them. Pick out gifts that reflect that and you can't loose. +It doesn't matter if you're not made of money either. Use you're talents to make something for your lover. If you're good at carpentry build your sweetheart something practical or decorative. +You could make a box and put a selection of memory jerking items inside it (pictures of special times, sea shells, leaves, little ornaments etc) and every time your sweetheart looks at or opens it they will be reminded of you. You could make a box just from a shoe box covered in pretty paper if you're not up to the wood work too! +If you're good at sewing or knitting then you can use this to create something for your love. Cross stitch pictures, quilts and clothing all are that much better when you know the person has spent time creating it specially for you. However, it may be to late to do this present now, unless you're a speed sewer/knitter. It might be something to bear in mind for next year instead. +Can you sing? Record a tape or a CD of yourself singing your lovers favourite song. Even if you can't sing you can still make up a mixed tape/CD and add a little bit of your own voice to it. Simply record yourself talking and add your personal dedication to your mix of favourite love songs. +Are you an artist? Draw/paint a picture or create your own home made Valentine's card. You can frame any kind of picture and make a wonderful personalised gift. Do a favourite landscape, a portrait of your lover, or something abstract. Anything created by you will be cherished for all the work that has gone into it. +Do you have culinary skills? Cook your lover a meal, or if that isn't your forte bake them a cake or some biscuits (cookies for you American folkies) or cheat slightly and grab ready prepared food and add your own little personal touches. Buy plain biscuits or little cakes and draw love hearts on them in icing, you can even get ready to squeeze icing pens now to make it even easier. +Use your inside knowledge and make the gifts and cards you choose match the person you give them too. Take some time to think and plan and really show your love this Valentine's day, after all that's what it's all about! +I hope I've managed to give you some ideas; basically let love be your inspiration and your guide and you can't help but get it right!" +493,How to Sensually Dominate a Man,missveronica,How To,2020-05-19,2020-05-19,2022-01-04 08:33:44,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-sensually-dominate-a-man,Guide to dominating with pleasure and little/no pain.,"['Advice', 'Bdsm', 'Bdsm Advice', 'Bdsm How To', 'D/S How To', 'Domination', 'Domme', 'Femdom', 'Sensual Dominance', 'Submissive']",4.77,"When I began my Domme journey years ago, I wrote a how-to story about dominating a man. Since then, I've discovered I specifically prefer sensual domination while inflicting little to no pain. That isn't always what people think of with D/s, so I wanted to write another how-to about this type of dominance. I've explored my dominant side through reading, writing, conversations, and playing with subs. The most repeated feedback on my stories is an appreciation for showing domination can be sexy without pain. I have absolutely nothing against domination with pain and cruelty, but it's just not for me. +This isn't a short how-to because it covers a lot of things, including responsibilities, communication, clothing, anticipation, sexy talk, teasing, orgasm control, putting him on display, toys, rewards, punishments, and aftercare. This isn't about negotiating scenes or playtime with new acquaintances, and it does not address D/s as a lifestyle. This is written for a Domme who already shares a connection with her sub. Personally, I need to know my sub and feel a connection with him in order to enjoy dominating him. This is also written from the perspective of a woman dominating a man. However, I hope that anyone, regardless of gender, orientation, or partnership status, can find some helpful and sexy ideas from this story. + **A few basics** +There is a physical side and a psychological side to dominance. Physically, sensual dominance means dominating with activities that revolve around sexual pleasure. Sexual pleasure is a broad term for all erotic physical sensations and not just oral sex or intercourse. It may include kissing, dry humping, spooning, massaging, etc. Rewards consist of sexual pleasure given by the Domme and received by the sub. Punishment means sexual pleasure is denied or taken away from the sub. Light pain is often part of the fun, but the more substantial pain is more commonly used with other types of dominance. Psychologically, sensual dominance may make a Domme feel worshipped, sexually satisfied, powerful, controlling, and loving. Subs may also feel sexually satisfied as well as vulnerable, cherished, controlled, and loved. The brain plays a vital role in domination, and the physical and psychological elements are incredibly interconnected. Ideally, your D/s interactions fulfill both the physical and psychological needs of you and your sub. Many people enjoy mixing sensual dominance with other types of dominance, while others prefer to stick to one kind. There's no right or wrong way to dominate as long as all parties involved are consenting and enjoying themselves. +Some people wonder if sensual dominance has much of a power exchange when it's all about pleasure. Absolutely! The extent of the power exchange depends on what level you and your sub desire. For example, you could climb on top of your sub to make him feel like he doesn't have a choice, and then fuck him senseless until you cum. There isn't a ton of power exchange in that scenario, but there's no rule that says you need to incorporate more. If you wanted more, you could tie him down and straddle his face while making it very clear that his pleasure has to wait until you're satisfied. Then you climb on top and ride him really slow until he's going crazy and begging for release, but he's not allowed to cum until you let him. When you make a sub get permission before he can cum, there's a lot of power exchange there even though you're focusing on pleasure. You can make your playtime more severe because you and your sub find a hard, unforgiving Domme sexier. Or you could play in a lighthearted, whimsical way by being a fairy who casts a spell to control him. Sensual domination can be intense, light, or anywhere in the middle. +When it comes to dominance in general, Dommes typically enjoy being in control because the sense of power is heady. It can also help a woman feel confident, sexy, desired, brave, and like an erotic badass. In addition to these reasons, I love the trust, honesty, and connection that come with dominating a sub. People often think that Dommes are controlling in all aspects of their lives. However, I have known very good Dommes who had a more passive personality outside of playtime. Additionally, not all bossy women make good Dommes. +On the other hand, many people believe subs want to submit because they have strong personalities but need a break from being in control. That can certainly be the case, as was true for one of my subs who was a cop. However, I also have met men who have a more laid back or mild personality but still love submitting to a woman. Subs can enjoy being controlled for several reasons. The most popular reason I hear is they love the feeling of submission and helplessness and find it extremely erotic. Another very common explanation subs give me is that they love pleasing a woman and making her happy. +Why Dommes and subs want dominance without pain can vary widely. I prefer sensual dominance because I like being in control of pleasure and orgasms. I love to tease and ramp up the anticipation to make both our orgasms better. I'm also a nurturing and giving Mistress and want to take care of my sub and his pleasure. I love making him happy because a happy sub is a devoted sub. I've heard from subs about why they want to be dominated sensually, and many explain that they get off by being at the mercy of a woman yet still want intimacy and pleasure. Additionally, many subs don't have an interest in pain, but they do have a strong desire to serve a woman sexually. They are hesitant to explore their submissive side because they don't find the pain aspect sexy. However, there's a world of sensual dominance waiting for them if they find the right Domme to match their desires. + **The Domme's responsibilities** +During playtime, you're in charge of a lot as the Domme. However, your most important responsibility is looking out for your sub. You need to make sure he's comfortable, happy, and safe throughout the entire experience, from discussions to playtime to aftercare. It's a lot of responsibility to be open and honest, understand his needs, plan activities, choose his rewards and punishments, take care of him, know when to push or back off, adjust things on the fly, and provide aftercare. Whew! It takes a lot of mental energy but is extremely rewarding. Be sure you recognize the effort it takes, and please don't half-ass it. It's impossible to be a perfect Domme all the time, and that's okay. But a desire to be an excellent one goes a long way toward great sensual playtime. It takes a lot of trust to submit to someone, so make sure you appreciate your sub's trust by doing your best. I always say my number one job as a Mistress is to take care of my sub. How I take care of him varies depending on who he is, what he needs, and what we're doing. No matter what, I always want him to feel safe, secure, and cherished. + **Communication** +I cannot stress enough how important communication is to help everyone be safe and have fun. This is the main reason why I need a connection with my sub; we have to be very open and honest with each other. Even with sensual dominance, you must have a safeword. You and your sub can use the same word, or each of you can have a different one. A safeword is a way to stop all play immediately, and both you and your sub must always have the ability to do that. Pick something that would never come up naturally in playtime. ""Stop"" and ""wait"" are terrible safewords because your sub might want to use them to increase his submissive feelings. Instead, choose something like the make of your car or your favorite musician. No matter what, always stop playing immediately when someone says the safeword. Trust plays a crucial role in dominance because whoever says the safeword trusts that their partner will stop. Once play stops, talk about why the safeword was used. It might be due to feeling unfun physical discomfort, being too overwhelmed, needing water, or having a muscle cramp. Don't automatically assume you're a terrible Domme if your sub uses the safeword. It just means that you need to have a talk as non-D/s people to figure out how to make things better. You may even continue playing if you both want to after your break, or you might choose to stop for the night and play another time. Remember, Dommes have every right to use a safeword as well. Anytime you need to stop and talk to your sub in a non-D/s space, use the word. Maybe you're not feeling well, you're not enjoying an activity, the condom broke, etc. Don't hesitate to use the word, and then explain why you used it. +The other major element of communication with your sub is determining how you want to play. You must have detailed conversations about what you each like and want to try. Both of you need to be honest about what you like and don't like, and you both need to be kind about what the other person says. If he asks about something that you're not into, like pegging him, don't make a face and don't belittle his interest because there's nothing wrong with his desire. Just be honest and say you don't want to put that on the list of things to try. You both probably have a desire that the other doesn't want to try because two people's kinks won't align perfectly on every item. There's also give and take, and one of you may bring up something the other hasn't thought about. If one of your sub's ideas doesn't really do it for you, but you aren't against it, be open to trying it. As a Mistress, I've done things for my sub that didn't sound erotic but became really hot and sexy once I did it and saw his reaction and arousal. +Both of you need to be clear about your limits and interests. Through talking, you'll find where your interests overlap and decide what to try. If you find it hard to get those conversations started, try finding a good story on Lit to read together and then discuss what you like and don't like about it. It's like sexy homework! Perhaps he loved the Domme's tenderness, the restraints, the anal play, or other specific things that start a great conversation. You could also have a discussion jar, and each of you writes ideas on slips of paper and puts them in the jar. Then when you go for a walk or have some cuddle time, take two ideas with you and talk about them. There's no rule about how the conversations must go, but just remember to be honest and kind. +Throughout the rest of this how-to, you'll notice multiple references to communicating with your sub and learning what he desires. However, some subs are Domme pleasers and really only want to serve you and your desires. If you have this type of sub, he may not voice his preferences because he wants to do what you want. It's possible when you ask him questions, his responses are, ""It's up to you,"" or ""You decide."" Be aware those answers could honestly reflect his desires because he wants you to lead, and he does not want much of a role in planning your playtime. However, continue to communicate and ask questions because it is essential to know when he does have limits and preferences. + **Clothing** +There are no rules about what you must wear during playtime. Clothing should be based on what you like and what's going to enhance the play and make it sexier for both of you. You might want to be in leather and metal if that helps you embrace your Domme persona, or you might want to wear romantic lingerie to highlight the loving bond you have with your sub. You may also have a variety of outfits that make you feel great as a Domme, and you pick one based on your mood or the playtime activities. You can choose your sub's clothing based on the planned activities too. If his collar makes him feel very secure, you'd be a thoughtful Domme to have him wear it when you're trying something new or pushing his boundaries. Perhaps you want to put him in a pair of your panties to make him feel more shy and vulnerable. Usually, I plan the night's activities and then select the clothes that match the mood I want to create. I find it much easier to be domineering in knee-high boots and a corset than in a schoolgirl outfit. It's also possible to pick the clothes first and then plan the activities. For example, if I found a sexy jockstrap for my sub to wear, I'd plan activities that put his gorgeous cheeks on display for me. +To help you select clothing, you should know your sub's preferences. He might struggle to answer a broad question like, ""What would you like me to wear?"" If so, try asking more specific questions like, ""Would you feel more dominated if I wore dark colors?"" His answers also reveal what psychologically affects him, which can help you be a better Domme. It helps to look online for lingerie and fetish clothing, and searching together can be very sexy. I specifically want to mention CFNM (Clothed Female Nude Male) because many men love feeling submissive this way. Not only does a sub usually feel more vulnerable when he's naked, but you can feel more powerful and in control by being fully dressed. Then you dictate precisely how your sub can earn the privilege of seeing more of your sexy body. The clothes you'd wear in this scenario are often your work attire, but it could be anything. In any case, CFNM can be another layer to make him feel more submissive. Don't worry, you can still get naked when you want! I personally love a naked sub and prefer him that way the majority of the time. I love being able to see how hard he is, how much he's leaking, and what makes his cock twitch with lust. + **Anticipation** +Building anticipation can drive your sub crazy and intensify his orgasm. It's also dominating because you're guiding his thoughts and arousal. The key to anticipation is letting him know what will happen in the future and then making him wait for it. A way to build anticipation without being specific would be leaving him a note in the morning that says, ""7 pm tonight, be naked and face-down on the bed."" He won't know what you're doing to do, but he'll enjoy wondering about it, especially if he has a great imagination. You could also be much more specific and tell him, ""You'll be using a toy on me tonight to make me cum before I tie you down and finger you."" Specifics can really make your sub crazy, especially if you describe them in the car on the way to dinner with friends. Do your best to follow through on your sexy promises unless there must be a necessary change in plans. Otherwise, your attempt at building anticipation becomes confusing and frustrating. + **Sexy talk** +Most men, subs included, love a woman who talks sexy. Sexy talk also includes dirty talk, but maybe you and your sub don't always want to use more explicit words. Imagine you have your sub restrained while you're riding him, which is his favorite position. Sexy talk that is less explicit might include, ""I love having you under me where you belong. Remember, I have to orgasm first, so get ready for a nice, long ride."" The words are less naughty, but it's still sexy, and you're asserting control by reminding him of a rule. Dirty talk could look more like, ""I love fucking you like this, with you under me where you belong. Don't forget you can't fill me with cum until you please me first. And with such a delicious cock for me to ride, I might want to make this last a very long time."" It's the same general message, but you're using words like fucking and cock and specifically mention him cumming inside you. Most subs will enjoy both versions, but you should know which type arouses him more so you can use that to your advantage. Combine sexy talk with other elements like anticipation or rewards to help push all your sub's buttons. You can always get sexy talk ideas from Lit stories. I wouldn't recommend getting ideas from porn videos because, well, they aren't known for their stellar dialogue. Sexy talk takes a little practice, and it might feel awkward at first. However, you'll learn where your comfort zone is and what words drive your sub crazy. + **Teasing and edging** +Teasing plays a considerable role in my sensual domination. It really ramps up the sexual tension and anticipation, which makes the release more powerful. The goal of sensual dominance is pleasure, which includes everyone's pleasure. You can only tease your sub so much before it becomes mean and tiresome. Where exactly that line lies depends on your sub because some enjoy more teasing than others. How you tease is based on what your sub likes and how much you want to torment him. If he's very visual, tease him by starting fully-dressed and revealing your body to him slowly. If he loves sexy talk, talk about what you're doing, what's coming next, how things feel, etc. Don't forget physical teasing as well, like barely touching his cock when you know he wants firm strokes. If you're on top, slide him inside you and then just be still and wait, especially if you know he's dying to thrust. You can even lightly scratch his balls with your fingernails while you're waiting to add even more teasing. Also, use his body's sensitive areas to your advantage to drive him absolutely wild. Teasing can be easily combined with other playtime fun. +Edging is a form of teasing that gets your sub right to the edge of climax then backs off just before he cums. You do this again and again, which keeps him at a very high level of sexual tension for an extended period of time. It can be difficult to edge your sub because it's impossible for you to know precisely how close he is to the edge of orgasm. Inevitably, you will make him cum accidentally because you didn't stop in time. To avoid this, you can make him tell you when to stop, or you can order him to edge himself while you watch. + **Orgasm control** +Controlling orgasms is one of my favorite ways to dominate because it has a clear sense of authority and is very sensual. This control often translates to rules about when, where, and how he's allowed to cum. Your rule about when he can cum might be that you have to cum first. Maybe twice. If you like your sub to refrain from orgasms for multiple days, you could have an orgasm scoreboard where he gets one for every five of yours. You can also make your sub ask permission to cum so he can't have an orgasm unless you allow it. You could even do this in your relationship outside of playtime if your sub really loves you controlling his orgasms. If you prefer control without him asking permission every time, you could allow him only two orgasms for the week, including masturbation, and he chooses when he wants to have them. Or perhaps you give him a weekend to cum as much as he wants as long as you get to help or watch every single one. +Controlling where he cums usually relates to on or in your body. Many Dommes won't let a sub cum on them because they feel it diminishes their status in the D/s relationship. Personally, I love to dictate where a sub cums on me because he is so grateful, especially if the location is related to one of his fetishes. Letting a sub with a foot fetish cum on your feet will make him so happy and very devoted to you, especially if you let him wash your feet afterward. +Controlling how he cums is another way to assert your dominance over his orgasm. You can dictate whether he cums from his own hand or from your body when you're together. You can also be specific about his position for masturbating. Many subs find masturbating for their Dommes even hotter if they're given specific instructions like being on all fours while they do it. The more ways you control his orgasm, the more powerful you feel, and the more submissive he feels. + **Putting him on display** +Putting your sub on display for your viewing pleasure can be a great way to feed his submissive desires. Additionally, he may love being your sole focus because it makes him feel very special. Make sure your sub is okay with being on display for you. If he has scars or body issues, he may not appreciate being the center of such visual attention. Watching your sub while he undresses, masturbates, or holds specific positions are sexy ways to put him on display. While you're watching him, you can compliment him, tell him how he's pleasing you, or play with yourself so he can see your pleasure. You want to help your sub feel comfortable and proud to be on display for you. You might also want to direct some of his actions to add more dominance, like giving him explicit instructions on how to undress for you. I also love asking my sub to describe his feelings while I watch him because it's amusing to watch him struggle to put together coherent sentences. + **Toys and other fun gadgets** +There's a whole world of sexy items to play with while dominating sensually. It's another topic area to discuss with your sub to determine what things might make your playtime more fun and arousing. It's impossible to list every sexual gadget out there, especially since almost anything can be used to enhance your experience. However, I want to discuss a few of the more common types. First, there are items to restrain your sub like handcuffs, spreader bars, chastity devices, cages, ropes, gags, leashes, etc. This can really highlight your dominance because it restricts his freedom, and you choose how to restrain him and in what position. It will also enhance your sub's feelings of helplessness, which can be a huge turn-on for you both. Restraints make it easier to tease your sub when he cannot touch your body or move closer to you. It also makes it very clear that he only can do what you allow. He can only kiss you if you get close enough. He can only suck your nipples if you put them within reach. He can only lick your pussy if you put it against his mouth. +Be aware that restraints take a higher level of trust because your sub is putting himself in a situation from which he cannot escape without your help. If he's not ready to do that, or if you aren't prepared for that level of control, here are a couple of alternatives that might work. You could just order him not to move. It's a simple but powerful solution that can be very dominating. This is how I prefer to restrain my sub because I love the psychological element and his voluntary obedience. My sub has full freedom to move, but he chooses not to in order to please me, which is very erotic evidence of his submission. If he obeys and doesn't move until he's allowed, he gets a reward. If he moves before he's allowed, he gets punished. Another option that offers your sub more movement would be a rule like, ""Keep both palms on the bed at all times."" This allows you to see how much he really squirms while still restricting his movements in some way. +Items for penetrating him anally are sometimes also used in domination, including butt plugs, dildos, strap-ons, and anal vibrators. I mention this type of toy for four reasons. One, be sensitive to your sub's preferences, and don't be surprised if he loves or hates the idea. Most men feel strongly one way or the other about being penetrated. Two, you do not have to use toys to explore him anally. Fingers can be a great way to get started to see how you both feel about this type of fun. Three, if you do use something other than your fingers, please get a toy made specifically for anal penetration to help ensure safety and comfort. And four, make sure you use lube as you experiment in this area! Subs who want a Domme to penetrate them appreciate the intimacy of letting someone inside them, and it can feel extremely submissive even while it's tender and loving. Additionally, the physical sensations can be extremely pleasurable for your sub, especially when the prostate is involved. Making a man cum always makes me feel like a good Domme, but absolutely blowing his mind with the most fantastic prostate orgasm makes me feel like a goddess for days. +Spanking toys are popular, which can include floggers, whips, riding crops, paddles, and canes. You can also use things around your house, like rulers, wooden spoons, hairbrushes, etc. In sensual dominance, spanking usually focuses more on the psychological impact and sexual arousal than physical pain. You can spank your sub for fun or use it as a reward if he loves it. It can be used as a punishment as well if he finds it very humiliating or if he becomes extremely aroused by it, but you don't let him cum. The most common place to spank a sub is on his sweet ass cheeks, but you can also spank him in other fleshy areas like his thighs. Various positions can also have different effects. If you're behind him while he's on all fours, he'll feel very exposed and vulnerable, especially having no idea when the next spank is coming. Putting him over your lap allows more skin-to-skin contact and can help increase intimacy. Having my sub face down across my legs is my favorite way to spank him because it's the best way for me to feel his physical reactions. The way his body squirms and thrusts against me as I spank him is very arousing. I can also feel how hard he is and how much he's leaking on my legs. Another great position for spanking is ordering him on his back and making him pull his knees up wide to give you access to his thighs and ass. This can make him feel very exposed, and as a bonus, you can see his face as he reacts to each swat. +You also need to decide what you want to spank him with. You can always use your hand, which is an easy and free way to start. I actually prefer to use my hand so I can feel the heat of his skin against my palm and enjoy how it gets warmer the longer I spank him. If you don't use your hand, be aware some toys hurt a lot more than others. Be sure to research and learn which toys are better for light play versus heavier play so you can choose the best one. It takes some trial and error to learn how hard to swing a spanking toy, but just start gently and work up from there to achieve the desired pain level. +Toys that aren't typically used with dominance can also be a lot of fun. Imagine using a clit vibrator on yourself while he watches and cannot move. Perhaps you want to order him to use a dildo on you while giving him explicit directions on how to do so. This is a win-win because you get an orgasm while he serves you, enjoys the gorgeous view, and hears the sounds you make. This is also great for Dommes who may need a little extra help orgasming. Just make sure you discuss bringing a toy into playtime before you do so. If you're getting toys that go inside either one of you, be sure you consider what size to get. In my experience, you get what you pay for when it comes to sex toys. I'm not saying break the bank to buy them, but if you want good toys that are quality and have more options, they will cost a decent amount. You might want to start with cheaper toys to see what you like. Then you can upgrade and spend money on the things you really love. + **Rewards** +You'll want to reward your sub when he's done something wonderful. Maybe he obeyed perfectly, or he went above and beyond your orders to please you. In any case, make sure he knows why you're rewarding him to reinforce his excellent behavior. You can give big or small rewards, both of which are based on what he really really likes. For example, if he loves blowjobs, then giving him one makes a fantastic reward. Yes, you can give blowjobs to your sub. Some Dommes think that isn't very dominating, but I beg to differ because you're still in total control of his pleasure. You get to decide whether to suck him slowly to prolong his orgasm or suck him deep and fast, so he's helpless to do anything but cum. If he has a foot fetish, allowing him to give you a foot massage can also be a great reward. If he loves being under you, then give him some quality make out time while lying on top of him. +You can certainly add more dominance to your rewards to foster his submissive feelings. Let's say your sub is a breast man, and you reward him by letting him kiss and suck your breasts for eight minutes. He would feel more submissive if you tie him up, kneel over him, and 'feed' him your breasts. Or you could make a rule that he can't get any precum on you. Maybe the rule should be that he can't make a noise the whole time. Perhaps you want to set a timer for the eight minutes and give him periodic updates on how much time is left. Ultimately a reward is tailored to your sub. I guarantee there are subs out there who would have trouble not cumming while sucking your toes as a reward, and there are others who would never want their mouth anywhere near your feet. That's why it's essential to know what your sub likes, dislikes, loves, and hates. + **Punishments** +Punishing your sub in sensual domination means you withhold or delay pleasure, which can be very fun. You should punish your sub when he disobeys you or breaks a rule. He may test the boundaries and disobey to see what happens. He also may purposely break the rules because he's in the mood to be punished. Subs who continually act out to get punished are called brats. I personally don't like a bratty sub because I find it disrespectful to my dominance. However, there are many Dommes out there who love to take a firm hand to a bratty sub, so it just comes down to personal preference. It's also possible for you to force your sub to break the rules so you can punish him. For example, you can make a rule that forbids him to make a sound for the next five minutes. Then you can perform very wicked sexual pleasures on him so he can't help but make a sound, which forces him to break the rule. You can do this if you're in the mood to punish him and need an excuse to do so. However, be aware that if you do it too often, your sub might not appreciate you stealing his ability to obey. +You should also consider the punishment duration and match it to the level of offense if you prefer. In other words, if he barely disobeyed and maybe even did it by accident, his punishment might not last very long. More significant offenses would then translate to longer punishments. Some Dommes like to punish their sub by denying them pleasure and orgasms for many hours or even days. Personally, I always allow my sub an orgasm before the night is over because I'm a greedy Mistress and love making him cum. I enjoy seeing and hearing how much he loves what I do to him, and his orgasm is the number one way for me to witness his pleasure. How long I make him wait depends on how strongly he needs to be punished, but more time just means more anticipation and teasing. + **Aftercare** +It's your responsibility as a Domme to make sure that you take care of your sub after playtime is over. Whenever you are done dominating him for the day/night, you need to provide aftercare. There are two types of aftercare: physical and emotional. Make sure that your sub is physically comfortable as he comes down off the pleasure high. He may need water, snacks, warm blankets, a shower, etc. I suggest always providing hydration and then take visual cues of what he might need. If you aren't sure what he needs, just ask him. Also comfort him with touch in a loving way, so he knows you're there for him while he relaxes. You could hold him, stroke his hair, spoon him, and give him small kisses. Make your touches comforting and not sexual to help him come back to earth gently. It also continues the intimacy of what you just did together and most likely comforts you too. +You must also care for him emotionally. Your sub might feel a little embarrassed about what you did together, or he might wonder if he pleased you enough. During aftercare, you should shower him with compliments. You can talk about how sexy he was, what he did that you loved, the amazing noises he made when he came... just sweet pillow talk that makes him feel great. He's welcome to share what he loved too, but he might not have enough brainpower to do so right then. Take that as a compliment about how hard you rocked his world, and don't be offended if he doesn't rave about you until later. Now is not the time to be asking questions or having a discussion about your playtime. Make it a rule that those conversations wait until the next day. Aftercare is about comfort, peace, and happiness. + **Learning for next time** +Every time you play, you will learn things that help you be a better Domme. The next day is a great time to think about your experience and discuss it with your sub. This is an integral part of sensual dominance and will help your D/s relationship grow. You'll learn what worked great and should definitely be done again in the future. Remember to repeat the compliments you gave him during aftercare now that he's no longer delirious with pleasure. You can also spin off new ideas from the things you loved. For example, let's say you tried using a timer in your play, and you both agree it was really hot. Then next time, you can use the timer to give him a one-minute window to cum. It's up to you on how much you help him make or miss that window. If he doesn't cum in that one minute, use the timer to dictate how long he has to lick you before you give him another window. +You also need to talk about what wasn't awesome. Discussing why it wasn't great is very important because maybe you want to try again with a small adjustment. Let's say you wanted to put your sub on display, so you watched him masturbate while using a toy on yourself. Maybe he didn't love the experience because you had your eyes closed from the toy, and he didn't feel on display as much as he wanted. A tweak would be to take turns playing with yourselves instead of doing it simultaneously. If you didn't discuss why he didn't love it, you might wrongly assume he didn't like masturbating in front of you. Sometimes it can be hard for your sub to ask for adjustments to playtime because you're supposed to be in control. Therefore, be sure he understands that his opinions matter and that he has a voice in your D/s relationship. +I hope you enjoyed reading this and have many sensually dominant fantasies and so much fun!" +494,How to Shop for the Best Sex Toys,Middleagepoet,How To,2009-12-07,2009-12-07,2022-01-04 08:33:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-shop-for-the-best-sex-toys,"Don't be caught dead in one of those ""Sex Shoppes.""",[''],3.2,"Okay, okay, I know all about it, you wouldn't be caught dead walking into one of those ""Sex Shoppes,"" you know the type, with the lovely mannequins lining the windows in odd costumes.

You should always bring a second person to keep yourself safe. Skinny-dipping can be a lonely activity if you don't bring another person, just like any other type of physical activity. +Since swimming involves water, a towel is usually a good idea, as well. Sometimes when you get out of the water you will be colder than you would have imagined, and while there are other ways to keep warm with another nude person about, you still would want a towel to lie down on, in the sun. +Sunscreen is another good idea. Your whole body is exposed when you skinny dip, and water only magnifies the burning light of that huge orb. You'll find that if you do not wear sunscreen your entire body will turn the color of a tomato, (especially for us redheads) and when your skin starts peeling a week later your partner may or may not still want to see you nude. A plus side to the sunscreen is that you and your swimming partner can take turns rubbing into your skin, and it can also be a decent lubricant if anything should arise. +Food is a great thing to have when you are swimming. You will find that while 100 years ago humans were all too willing to drink water from a stream or lake, now we are a little pickier. After bouncing and splashing around in the water, you may find yourself quite thirsty and hungry. Good, nutritious, delicious food and drinks can be very refreshing. One interesting option would be to pack yourself a picnic in a cute little basket, or try bringing finger food that you and your swimming partner can feed each other, if you like that sort of thing. +Selecting Your Swimming Place +Each swimming location has pros and cons. I do not suggest skinny-dipping in the ocean, as usually it is too cold. Of course, I live on the west coast, and almost anything is too cold over here. If you live near a warm sea of some sort, it might be a good choice to select the large open ocean as a place to swim. One of the downsides to choosing an ocean, at least in Oregon, is that every beach is a public one. There are nude beaches scattered from place to place, but I am assuming that my readers are hoping to have a one on one erotic adventure. +Lakes are another choice. Unlike oceans or rivers, they are calm and popular places to swim. As with the oceans, however, the best swimming areas are usually crowded with people. If you are looking for an exhibition, this might be a great choice for you, but if you're looking for privacy, I suggest a river. +Many rivers have great swimming holes you can drive up to. Look for a deep area in the water, one where you can see the bottom and the current. For skinny-dipping I don't suggest areas with lots of white water and rocks, although those can be fun on other swimming expeditions. Sometimes swimming in water near a road but concealed by trees adds just a bit of naughtiness to the adventure that can be a lot of fun. +Undressing Yourself +Skinny-dipping requires no clothing. Before you get in the water you ought to strip yourself down to your birthday suit. One idea, which I think is very exciting, is to undress out of your swimming partners view. Undress behind a tree or a bush, or even carefully cover yourself up with a towel while you take your clothes off. Then, nude, emerge into your partners vision, a striking god or goddess there to bring them to the peak of skinny dipping pleasure. +What To Expect From The Water +The interesting thing about swimming in nature is that the water tends to have a natural urge to pull you under. In the ocean, you should be particularly careful of these currents, which will do their best to drag you underwater and take you far out to sea. In the rivers, as well, this problem occurs. The currents in the river want to drag you downstream through rocks and other painful objects, and can sometimes pull you under particularly tough-to- escape-from items. Lakes have little to no current, but you should still be aware that these are dangerous places to swim. Drowning is always a danger, so beware! +Water temperature is different depending on what time of the year you are planning to swim. During the winter, the water is rather icy, and during the spring it is mostly melted snow, which is also quite chilly. The best time of year to go skinny-dipping is summer, when the weather is warm and the water temperature has risen. Keep in mind that hypothermia has occurred to several people who have decided to wade in cold water, and they even had swimming suits on! +Puddles (not recommended for skinny-dipping,) lakes, rivers, streams, and oceans, all house a variety of living creatures besides skinny-dippers. These creatures are usually friendly or frightened, but if fish frighten you easily, perhaps you should consider a different sport. +Everyone's body is going to react differently to the water. Women, you will find it difficult to dive down if your chest is more than an A cup. Before, your swimsuit conveniently bound your bosom to your body, but now, you will find that since they are free, they are enjoying the water as much as you are. You will find that your breasts will be struggling to get out of the water, but also will be acting as natural lifesaving devices, which could come in useful. If you're planning to play the part of a coy skinny-dipper, you'll have a hard time since you breasts are going to be teasing the men. The floating breast phenomenon is a little strange at first, but you will get used to it. +Men, you will encounter the phenomenon widely known as ""shrinkage."" If you are not planning to play the part of the coy skinny-dipper it is wise to acknowledge the fact that most women do not take ""shrinkage"" into account when determining whether or not you measure up. +Where To Pee +One question that everyone always seems to ask me is where he or she ought to pee while skinny-dipping. My suggestion is the water. Urine is natural, and just washes away with the stream. Where do you think the fish relieve themselves? Sort of like peeing in the shower, but a little colder. One of the drawbacks to this solution, however, is that if you are skinny-dipping as an erotic experience, the urination process may frighten your partner away. One thing most people hate to see is a puddle of yellow water surrounding a girl or boy they are holding in their arms. I suggest you get out of the water, like a gentleman or lady, and hide behind a bush to complete the process. When you wear a swimsuit, it is hard to get yourself out of the water, peel the wet swimsuit off your body, pee, and pull the suit back up due to the suits anger at being taken off your skin. When you are naked, though, it is much easier to peel your nonexistent swimsuit off and pee. So I suggest you do that. +Note that while your partner may understand peeing in the stream, he or she will likely not appreciate relieving yourself in other ways. Sicko! +Playing With Your Partner +Half the fun you have, naked in the water, is going to be with your swim partner. Naked horseplay can be a lot of fun. Splashing, grabbing hold of the slick wet body of a member of your preferred sex, or teasingly dunking your weaker girlfriend under the water. But there is such a thing as going too far. As with sex, you should find out what limits your partner has. If your girlfriend or boyfriend is nervous about being underwater, for instance, you probably shouldn't dunk them under. An unwelcome dunk is a sure way to end your adventure. Splashing, too, can be something that certain people, and I'm not naming any names, might not enjoy. Keep in mind, as well, that grabbing hold of another person and putting all your weight on them, even underwater, can be dangerous. If someone is struggling to keep himself or herself above the surface of the water, don't drag them down. Never grab hold of someone while they are attempting to swim. +Sex In The Water +Sex underwater is a blast, but it can also be tricky. The male genitals like to disappear in water, shrinking inside the male body. Some coaxing is needed to take it out, but, ladies, don't be offended if your man isn't as large as he is on land. +Women experience some problems too. You would think that since there is water all around, women would be well lubricated. But sometimes they're not! The slick fluid that usually gathers when a woman is aroused is instantly washed away in the water, making it a little stiff to get penetration going on. +If you can overcome these obstacles, then sex underwater can be a blast, but don't be too surprised if it doesn't work. If sex underwater fails, try making out instead. Making out underwater is extremely satisfying, tasty, and fun. Also, dancing around in the water together is a great activity. +Getting Out And Drying Off +Did you bring your towel? This would be a good place to start. You have a couple options, though. Drying your body off with the towel is the usual way to do things. It's quick, it's easy, and it allows you to get on with your life. However if you wish to linger in the moment, drip-drying is probably a better option for you. +To drip-dry lay your towel out in a sunny area. Before lying down on the towel, make sure that your sunscreen is still on. You don't want to burn! Lay down on the towel, scooting over enough for your swim partner to join you on the towel. If you have sunglasses, you might want to wear them, but if not you can just shut your eyes. Relax, enjoy your time in the sun, and in a few minutes your body will be dry. One of the pros of swimming nude is that drying is much easier; you have no clothing to dry, just yourself. +I hope you enjoyed my guide to skinny-dipping.

But I think most, not all women, have those same tendencies but are reluctant to act on them due to the stigmata of being slut-shamed and the negative repercussions it would lead to. Let's call them _late bloomers_. +From what I've gathered from your comments, I've theorized the ""lesson plan"" I inquired about in slut training. Please remember this is a work in progress and not by means finale. +1\. BEING COMFORTABLE WITH YOUR BODY +The subject needs to learn to be comfortable being completely naked, no matter her body type and should engage in the following steps. +The subject should start with being naked in the privacy of her own home and do the usual household activities, cooking, cleaning, reading. +The subject should take naked selfies of herself but with her face covered or not shown. Look over them. She could then post them on the internet or play it safe and delete them. +When feeling more secure, the subject should engage in public nudity. She should start by going to a nude beach, taking a pleasant stroll on the sand, swimming, some socializing. Then do more daring acts like amateur stripping contests or nude yoga (if that's really a thing). +The subject should then buy some provocative clothes to feel sexier. short skirts, thongs, g-strings, crotchless panties, microkinis. +It should be suggested that the subject should read erotic books. Some nighttime reading. +During this, the subject should continue to take nude selfies of her deeds. If she posts them, there is no shame in covering her face to conceal her identity in case the _wrong guy_ happens to see them. +2\. LETTING OUT YOUR INNER PORN STAR +The subject must learn to let go of her fear and embrace her sexuality to enjoy the thrills of active sex life. +The subject should start with going out in pubic in short skirts and no underwear. A walk downtown, a trip to the mall, the movies, a restaurant she never been to. Maybe at work, that's her call. +If the subject wants more thrills, she should start using small sex toys such as a butt plug and/or ben wa balls in her outings. Maybe then move on to vibrating panties or a reversible strap-on. +A more bold way for the subject to brought out her inner slut she should take more provocative selfies and record some videos of herself masturbating, dancing naked to music, discreetly flashing her ass in public. Then she posts them on a porn site like XVideos.com, PornHub, RedTube. Oh, and FetLife. I don't know if Instagram or Snapchat would allow them. As mentioned before, she should conceal her identity for her own safety if she wishes. The subject can learn from the comments she receives but if all she gets are lewd comments and requests to meet, she may not learn that much and will want to delete her profile. +3\. KNOW YOUR BODY THROUGH MASTURBATION +Before the subject should find pleasure with others, she should find pleasure from herself. +If the subject has already engaged in masturbation, then she needs to take her self-pleasuring to the next level. One way is for her to see how many she can make herself climax in a certain amount of time. 1 hour, 2 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours. The time frame can be discussed. +Another way is for the subject to watch porn on her usual porn site and must refrain from masturbating until she watches 20-30 videos, 5-30 minutes in length. The number of videos can be discussed. +Another is the subject edges herself. With a vibrator or a wand, she tests herself how many times she can stop pleasuring herself before climaxing until she gives in. How many times should she allow can be discussed. +If the subject has never masturbated...that can be disussed. +4\. CREATE A SEXUAL BUCKET LIST (OPTIONAL) +The subject should write down the slutly things she dreamed of doing. Sex with two men, sex with a woman, being gangbanged, pegging. The purpose of the list is not to cross it out but for the subject to know what she desires. +5\. SKILLS FOR A SLUT +If knowledge is power, then knowing how to please your sex partner will take you from slut to sex goddess. +The obvious skill a slut needs is how to perform oral sex. If the subject has a mentor or a thrust worthy friend, she can learn from them with the use of dildos for practice. If not, she get could find some tutorials from porn sites, fellatio and cunnilingus. +Another skill for a slut is anal sex. If the subject wants to engage in anal sex, she needs to prepare herself. Starting with a set of different sized butt plugs. She should insert the smallest (or second smallest if she's daring) after properly lubricating it and wear it for a few hours a day. When she feels the butt plug getting comfortable, she will switch to the next size. +Important to know that during anal sex, the cock and the asshole must lubricated. +Other skills should include, make-up, grooming, pole dancing and erotic massage. +6\. RULES OF THE SLUT + _Ain't no shame ladies, do your thing_ + _Just make sure you ahead of the game_ + _-Missy Elliot_ +No fear. +No guilt. +No shame. +No regrets. +Carry plenty of condoms and lube." +497,How To Smoke Cigars,Det_Max_Payne,How To,2009-05-17,2009-05-17,2022-01-04 08:33:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-smoke-cigars,"A beginner's guide to choosing, preparing and smoking cigars.","['Cigars', 'Cuba', 'Smoking', 'Tobacco']",3.9,"DISCLAIMER: +1)This text does not, in any way, claim that a cigar, or generally smoking, is not harmful for both the smoker's health and that of those around him. Also, it does not claim that a cigar is less harmful than a normal cigarette. +2)This text was written for people who are adults and who are smoking or have decided, in their own free will, to start smoking cigars. This text is not encouraging anyone to start smoking cigars, or tobacco products in general. +3)The author is not advertising any of the cigars or cigar brands mentioned in the article, he is simply making suggestions based on personal experience. +So you want to start smoking cigars and you just don't know how? Or you have already started and you want to do it with a little more elegance, a little more style, a little more like Zino Davidoff? Then my friend this guide to selecting, preparing and smoking a cigar was made just for you. +The first step is choosing the right cigar. The best place to buy a cigar is a tobacco shop as the cigars there are properly stored and are much less likely to be fake than those you could buy from somewhere else, the duty free shops at airports or via the Internet for example. If you are a beginner in smoking cigars I suggest you buy a short cigar with mild flavor and a medium body, as a strong cigar may taste bitter to you. A few good examples are Romeo y Julieta mille fleurs (thousand flowers), Partagas mille fleurs or Partagas 'short' cab of 50. For a wider list of selections ask your local tobacconist, he/she will be glad to help you. +I suggest you buy Cuban cigars as they are by far the best cigars in the world. Because they are quite expensive, there are numerous websites that claim to make discounts up to 50% of the price, give you free cigars as a bonus to your purchase and much more...If you're thinking about buying cigars from such sites DON'T! It is highly possible that these cigars are fake. +Now I know what you're thinking about; this idiot has been ranting about Cuban cigars and fake Cuban cigars but he hasn't told us yet how to tell them apart. Fear not, dear reader, for here it comes: +There are three easy ways to tell apart a real Cuban cigar: +1)At the box of the cigars and more specifically at the bottom right corner there should be a yellow tape saying 'Habanos S.A.'. This is the company that handles all the exports of Cuban cigars. +2)At the back of the box there is a printed inscription saying 'Hecho a mano' or 'Totalmente a mano'. This means that the cigar was both hand-rolled and filled by hand. +3)At the same place there should also be the inscription 'Hecho en Cuba' which means that the cigar was not only made with Cuban tobacco but also was completely made in Cuba. +Now that we've covered almost everything about buying a cigar it's time to speak about cutting a cigar. To smoke a cigar you have to cut or make a hole at the end that is round or cone-shaped and is called head or cap. The best way to do it is by using a puncher or a guillotine cutter. If you use a puncher, align the cap's center with the puncher and make one decisive click. If you go for the cutter, place in the blades about 1 to 2 millimeters (about 1/20 of an inch) of the cap and with the blades slightly touching the cigar make one quick cut. Never resort to knives or blades of any other kind, let alone your teeth (as many savages even nowadays do) as you risk making the wrapper i.e. the external tobacco leaf covering and holding the cigar together, unwrap. +And now, dear reader, imagine the sound of drum roll, if you will, as we have reached the most important part of the article. How to light a cigar. Allow me to say first that any and all cigars are very sensitive to various smells and odors and tend to pick them up very easily. This why you must use the right type of lighter. Guys and gals, disposable gas lighters, candle flame and Zippos (if you must absolutely use one prefer the Zippo Blu) are simply out of the question. They have a smell that will ruin the taste of the cigar. There are three good ways to light a cigar. +1)Use a torch lighter with butane gas or a Collibri. +2)Use traditional matches (do be prepared to use a lot more than one if you're using standard size wooden matches; always remember to let the match burn for a couple of seconds before you use it to get rid of the nasty sulphur smell) +3)Use cedar spills (thin strips of Spanish Cedar which you can find in tobacco stores) +As for the technique of lighting: We gently warm the foot of the cigar i.e. the lower part of the cigar, which we are going to light, by passing it above the flame and NEVER letting the cigar actually touch it. Then, we bring the flame directly under the foot, whilst holding the cigar at a 30 degrees angle, and start to puff gently while at the same time rotating the cigar to establish an even burn. By this time, if you blow gently at the foot there should be a glowing cherry ring of flame. If that's not the case, repeat the process only with the part that is not lit. Now you've got yourself a slow and even burn. Great job! Now a medium sized cigar should last for about an hour and to do so, you should take a puff WITHOUT inhaling the smoke once in every minute. Keep the smoke in your mouth for a bit and appreciate its taste and aromas and then exhale. +If you forget to puff for a long time, the cigar may light out. No need to worry thought; simply flick the edge of the cigar to get rid of the accumulated ash and relight it the same way you did when you lit it for the first time. Once you've decided you don't want to smoke any more of your cigar, don't butt it out in the ashtray; allow it to die in dignity. Just leave it in the ashtray and it will extinguish itself. That's all for now boys and girls; keep puffing and soon you'll become true cigar aficionados." +498,How to Spank,Joseki Ko,How To,2004-02-03,2004-02-03,2022-01-04 08:33:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-spank,A little advice on administering a good spanking.,"['Good Spanking', 'Hand Bottom', 'Run Hand', 'Sensual Spanking', 'Spanking', 'Spanking Fun', 'Subject', 'Ten Smacks', 'Wearing Underwear']",4.21,"So this is your first time to deliver a spanking, and you need a little help. +First and foremost only use your hand for your first few times. If you get a little excited or enthusiastic using an implement (Paddle, tawse, belt, etc.) you might hurt your subject a lot more than you intend. Remember you are responsible for both your subject and yourself. From the time your session starts until it is over, you are the responsible party. +Ok now on to what you really want to know. By now you will have already decided if this spanking is going to be purely for discipline or a sensual spanking. +A sensual spanking combines a lot of tenderness with your discipline. You spend a lot of time rubbing the target area, and you very your swats between hard and soft. A discipline spanking has a lot less caressing and a lot more swats to it. +Discipline +A discipline spanking starts with a good scolding. There should be no doubt in either your mind or in the mind of the one about to be spanked as to why they are receiving this spanking and why it will happen again if they break your rules. On a side note this is a punishment that most of us received as children and it still sits at our core. So during the scolding using words like naughty and phrases like you’ve been a bad boy/girl can drive the point home that they are not being punished like an adult. They are being treated as a child. +After planting firmly in their mind the reason they are being spanked you move on to draping them over your knee. Plant a dining room chair in an open space and sit down upon it. Grab either their elbow or an ear and drag them over your knee. Don’t grab a hand or merely tell them to get over your knee. You want your subject to know you they don’t really have a choice. +I suggest just draping your subject over one knee. It bends them more in the middle and gives you a better target area. It also gives you access to their thighs. Also if they start kicking you can use your free leg to lock them in place. +I’m starting with the idea that they are fully clothed. Run your hand over their bottom completely. This reminds them that you are in charge and allows you to feel where you should be aiming. Administer about 10 smacks over the outer layer of their clothing. Be careful not to hit the lower back area. It is possible to cause severe damage to someone’s back this way. I try to stay on the lower 2/3rds of the bottom. Now remove the first layer of clothing. Pull down their pants or pull up their skirt yourself. Now if they are wearing underwear run your hand over their bottom again and administer another ten smacks. Aim a little lower on the bottom than you did the first time. If they are not wearing underwear, at your discretion you may scold them for this or not. Depending on your situation. If you feel this warrants scolding tell them you have just added to the number of swats you were going to give. +Now pull down their underwear and once again run your hand over their bottom. Pay attention to any heat you may find. This area will be a little more sore than other area’s. I try to leave the clothing just above my subjects knees. It reinforces the humiliation of the position. And it keeps them form kicking to much. Now once again start administer your smacks. Evenly distribute the punishment between each cheek. It keeps the pain down a little and makes sitting that much harder later. +Don’t smack to hard you have all the time in the world to administer this spanking. I try to keep the power down and extend the spanking. It makes the subject feel like it lasted forever and allows them to take more smacks. If a wayward hand comes back in a rearguard action, grab it and hold it behind the back. Stop the punishment and use both hands if you have to. +For the last ten smacks you want to aim at the 2 inches right where the thighs meet the bottom. The Sweet Spot” This area is very sensitive so it’s really going to hurt. Lighten up the power if you have to. +Ok now when to end the spanking. Don’t stop just because your subject says sorry or I’ll never do it again. Make sure that you don’t teach them to beg out of it. I usually go until they shudder or kick. After that I apply the ten to the “Sweat Spot” If you want to use a predetermined number of smacks that’s ok too. +Now that your spanking is done lets finish the punishment. Either the subject sits on you for comfort (still bare bottomed) or you send them to a corner. DON’T DO BOTH. It tends to be very confusing to have a bad a good and a bad again. +Corner or sitting time should be around fifteen minutes, long enough to give them time to think about it and pull themselves together. It also keeps them from passing out because they locked their knees. +Ok now after this is over and you’ve allowed them to get dressed again, now you can snuggle. Try rally hard not to use words like I’m sorry about that or that will teach you. You don’t want them to feel that they can get away with it next time, or resent you for reminding them about their misdeed. +Very important, once the have been punished for this don’t ever bring it up unless they do it again. Once a punishment is over it’s over. +Ok a sensual spanking can be much more fun. +Have your subject strip themselves or do it for them. You can either strip as well or remain clothed. For this type of punishment use a couch or a bed. It lends support to your subject and if it gets really good fast you have a nice soft area for sex without going to far and ruining the mood. You may get your subject over your knee anyway you wish, voice command, gabbing some anatomy, or the good old fashioned struggle. Sensual spankings can be just as hard as disciplinary ones but without the scolding and much more rubbing. Spend a few minutes rubbing their bottom and softly pat the cheek you intend to start with. You may administer as many swats as you wish at whatever power level you desire. Just remember not to break your toy’s. During the spanking it’s very fun to finger your partner as well. It can really heat them up. If you have a man over your lap remember that if you get a finger (or whatever) in to deep you might hit the prostate which will immediately get you a wet lap. Can be fun ladies. +There should be no corner time when your done just good sex. Taking your partner from behind after a good spanking is not something to be missed. +In the words of Spock, “Spank well and prosper.”" +499,How to Spar on the...,Joseki Ko,How To,2005-01-02,2005-01-02,2022-01-04 08:33:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-spar-on-the,A detailed description of sparring on GCN Gor.,"['Combatant', 'Gcn Gor', 'Great Ship', 'Judge', 'Neutral', 'Null Void', 'Seawolf', 'Ship Seawolf', 'Spar', 'Time Mark']",2.33,"**How to Spar on the Great Ship SeaWolf** +Match Rules +""It is the Combatants' job, thru description of action within these Rules, to produce a post that is easily envisioned by the Judges..."" +1\.

Our love making and foreplay has advanced to where we are now, my hard shaft deep in her wet love tunnel. Our naked bodies are sweating together, moving together, joined as one physically, emotionally and mentally. We share kisses while I pump in and out of her at a faster and faster rate, her moaning keeping up with the cadence. +I'm connected to her through genitals and through my desire to be one with her very being. I need to be one with her. And I want for her to be one with me. +I'm grinding harder, faster, deeper. my hard dick pistoning in and out of her juicy, hot cunt. She's moaning in ecstasy beneath me, her legs spread wide, her arms locked around my back as I pump faster and faster. She grunts. Her eyes close. She's getting close to her orgasm. Her breathing quickens. +The sloppy squishy sound of my slippery shaft is a sex noise we both have learned to love. +I pump even harder now, my cock alternately deep inside, then almost completely out of her moist and willing cunt. Faster and faster I plow into her, connecting with her, sharing her. +She starts moaning more, and more, and more! Then she announces, ""Ugggghhhh! I'm going to c-cum! Ohhhh! Uhhhhhhh! I'm cumming! Don't stop! Harder! Yes! Yes! Yeeeeesssss!"" +Her breathing halts as she lets out little cries of orgasmic joy. Her body tightens and she hugs me tight, pulling me as deep into her as she can. +Her orgasmic ecstasy brings me over my edge and I start cumming too. I shoot my hot cum deep into her soaked tunnel. Together we grunt and groan as our orgasm take us and shake us. +After my orgasm I feel elated and exhausted. Soaking wet in sweat I slump on top of her for a second, resting my full weight on her hot, wet body and beautiful tits before rolling over to her side. My rapidly shrinking cock pops out of her used hole, it's covered with a combination of her love juices and my sticky cum. +I had an amazing orgasm! +But did she? +Turns out, she didn't. +Women and their real and fake orgasms +After that session and some frank conversations between us I learned she faked that orgasm. She didn't orgasm at all during that hot sexual tryst, or several other recent couplings! +Wow! +That's what started my years-long research into the female orgasm. My mission became one of knowing as much as possible by asking my partners about their orgasms. I learned why, when and how women orgasm, or fake their orgasms. The desire to understand as best I could the female orgasm became a life-long passion of mine. +I've had sexual relations with 21 different women over my life. Most were girlfriends, some were one or two-night stands, and one is a marriage that's lasted 20+ years and counting. +For the most part I've researched female orgasms with most of those women, and asked dozens more questions about their orgasms. +For the women whom I slept with the details were shocking. After I started uncovering the truth I was disappointed to learn that anywhere from 10 percent to 35 percent of the times we had sex, they admitted they had faked an orgasm. +I wanted to know more. Why did they fake orgasms? How can I tell if her orgasm is fake or real? What IS a real orgasm and how do they impact a woman's body? +Those were all questions I needed answers for. And so began my journey of a man trying to understand a woman's orgasm. +As a man, I'll never truly understand a woman's orgasm. I can only use my research, books, internet articles and the descriptions shared to me by the many women I've talked with. +Knowing that women fake orgasms, I started paying much more attention to little and big signals during sex. I focused on my wife's body as she'd cum to try to learn if she was having a real orgasm or if she was faking it. +My wife admitted that it became much harder to fake orgasms once I started paying detailed attention to her signals! +And that's the shocker. Why would she, or any woman for that matter, need to feel like she had to fake an orgasm? +Why Women Fake Orgasms +No two women are the same, so everything that follows needs to be understood as being somewhat general to all women. And of course my own male bias is added in to the mix. I'm not a woman and have not experience real or fake female orgasms, so everything below is based on shared information and careful observations I've gathered from the many women I've talked to and interacted with over 30+ years. +But I can say that in general the following is mostly true and can probably be applied fairly well to most women. +Ladies, if I'm off base on any of this please let me (billtomlin60) and my readers know in the comments below! +My girlfriends and my wife shared with me that there are many reasons why a woman may fake an orgasm. The most common are: +1\. She wants to please her partner, but she is just not horny enough for an orgasm +Sometimes a woman will have sex with her partner more because she wants to please her partner than she wants to please herself. +The way my wife explained it is she enjoys giving me pleasure, even if she doesn't need that pleasure herself. Giving me an orgasm makes her feel good, and she enjoys the act of sex and enabling me to enjoy sex. But she doesn't need the orgasm for herself because she's just not horny enough for one. +This I think is something of a difficult concept for us guys to grasp. That's because unlike women our biology is directly wired into our ability to produce offspring (sperm). Our 'reward' for attempting to fertilize an egg with our ejaculation of semen is an orgasm. No orgasm, no need for ejaculation. No ejaculation, no sperm. No sperm, no offspring. +It's difficult for us guys, or at least me, to consider that a woman can enjoy sex and especially enjoy using her body to give her partner pleasure without feeling the need to have an orgasm. +2\. She just wants it to be over +Sometimes a woman is just not in the mood for sex, but her partner is. If the partner is persistent and insistent she may just give in and have sex to shut her partner up. +But she's not doing it for any pleasure on her part. She's just doing it to get her partner off (off of her physically and off for her partner in the sense of an orgasm). Basically, she just wants to get the whole thing over with as quickly as possible. +By faking her pleasure and eventually faking her orgasm, she can help her partner to cum faster, thereby getting the act over quicker. +My wife admitted to doing this more than once with me, most often during morning sex. +When I was younger I would wake up really horny, usually with a rock hard penis. +But my wife is anything but a morning person. If she had her choice, she would wake up around lunch, and do all her cleaning, chores and workouts after 6pm. I was (and still am) the opposite, I'm raring to go first thing in the morning, and by 9pm I'm exhausted and shutting down for the night. +After persistent requests by me for sex in the early morning, my wife would sometimes just roll-over and let me have my way with her. And if she felt like it was taking too long she would speed things up by pretending to get all hot and bothered and then having a fake orgasm, which she knew would usually trigger my orgasm. +3\. She's acting +Porn stars, webcam actresses and even amateur women taking part in home sex tapes often feature ladies having amazingly powerful orgasms that just go on and on and on, much like the energizer bunny. +I'm going to go out on a limb here and claim most of them are faking their orgasms. +Why? +Because doing a show, or several sex scenes over and over for the camera requires going through the motions whether you are horny or not. +And my girlfriends and my wife all admitted to sometimes faking orgasms while we were making our home sex videos. They said the camera made them nervous. So instead of relaxing and enjoying sex they found it easier to become actresses who faked orgasms, enabling them to perform the role they thought I expected. +That's not really surprising when you think about all the work an actress has to do to get dressed up, made up, and then perform sex scenes multiple times for different angles, over and over again for the camera. +For us, my wife had to go through a lot to do one of our typical home sex tapes. She had to put on surprisingly itchy, scratchy, sometimes ill-fitting and uncomfortable sexy lingerie. She put on high heels that hurt her feet and were a danger to puncturing our bedding. She would apply her makeup and do her hair (most women I met HATE being caught on any kind of photo or video not looking their best - even a home sex video!), and then she would have to assume many positions I asked her to do that frankly she would skip if it were a real sex act. +4\. She can't have an orgasm +Sadly, I've met a couple of women over the years that admitted they had never had an orgasm. +I'm not a psychologist or a doctor so I don't know why they didn't experience orgasms. Often times neither did they. Maybe it had to do with some of them being abused at an earlier age. Maybe the wiring of the nerve-endings in the clitoris were not working, I don't know. +For those women, faking an orgasm is part pleasing their partner, and part not wanting to have a perceived potential negative associated with their relationship with their partner. +One of the women I talked to who had never had an orgasm explained she wanted her partners to think she was 'normal' and could have normal sexual relations, including an orgasm. She admitted she had no idea what an orgasm felt like and just copied what she saw on sex tapes. +So with that background let's learn how to identify a real female orgasm... +How to spot a real female orgasm +Over the years I've asked lots and lots of questions among dozens and dozens of women about their orgasms. I've also asked about orgasms immediately after sex with my partners, and after observing many women before, during and after real and fake orgasms. +So with all that research, here's the signs I've compiled to help identify a real female orgasm versus a fake orgasm. +But first, a note on the two types of female orgasms. It's been explained to me by the women in my life that there are other types of orgasms such as anal, but let's focus on the primary two for this article. +Two Types of Female Orgasms; Vaginal and Clitoral +Over the years many women have tried to explain to me the differences they feel in a vaginal orgasm versus a clitoral orgasm. +Are there differences? +According to the women I've spoken with, there are big and little differences between the two. +Here's my brief summary of my understanding of the differences as reported by them. +Vaginal orgasms. +I'm told by the women I've spoken with that vaginal orgasms are deeper and involve the entire body. They are caused by objects in the vagina stimulating the walls, G-spot and cervix in the vagina. These orgasms seem to emanate from the vagina and spread through the whole body in a wave or waves. It's been explained to me that it's kind of like an amazing warming or a deep sense of incredible pleasure which envelopes her whole body, but from the inside out. My girlfriends and my wife told me that vaginal orgasms are not as 'sharp' (my words) or direct as a clitoral orgasm, but because they involve the whole body they are longer lasting and seem to be more connected to emotional feelings of love, joy and sharing. +Clitoral orgasms. +Clitoral orgasms according to the women I've talked to are much more direct and involved in a more centralized manner. They are caused by stimulation of the clitoris and clitoral hood area and are much 'sharper' (my words) and focused. Because of this, clitoral orgasms can be very powerful, sometimes causing higher pleasure feelings than a vaginal orgasm. But clitoral orgasms are often shorter in length than a vaginal orgasm. Because they are so strong and direct, clitoral orgasms, once finished, cause the clitoris and the area around her clitoris and clitoral hood to become extremely sensitive. Most women I've had sex with typically tightly close their legs after a clitoral orgasm (many do so for vaginal orgasms as well, but clitoral orgasms are even more sensitive). Touching the area immediately after an orgasm is almost painful and most women need a bit of time to recover before being able to touch that area again. +The Eight Ways to Spot a True Female Orgasm: +Important! Women don't exhibit all these signs all the time when they are having an orgasm. Different women, different excitement levels, different habits will all make for variation in the unique signs for each female orgasm. +As you have sex with her, look for many, some or just a one of these signs each time she has her orgasm. By watching her patterns and carefully observing her body reactions you will soon be able to spot the specific signs for her real orgasm, versus her fake orgasm. +Remember! No two women are the same, so this and all the rest that of the signs that follow are my best generalizations from observations, research and what women have told me about their orgasms. +1\. Her face and vocalisms are not in her control during a real orgasm +A real female orgasm most often involves her whole body, from the tip of her scalp all the way down to her toes. This often includes her face and mouth. +The extremely powerful waves of pleasure coursing through her body seem to short-wire her ability to control her face and speech. Many women having a real orgasm will close their eyes tight, but their mouths will be open as they pant rapidly in and out. +As the orgasm occurs, they will often hold their breath, or just as often let out air while grunting, moaning loudly, or sometimes screaming. +My wife would always grab a pillow next to her head during her orgasm and hold it tightly over her face as she would scream into it. +Several of my girlfriends would snap their eyes open and stare into space while experiencing their orgasm. They were unable to speak, usually gasping for breath as pleasure poured through them. +This means spotting fake female orgasms is relatively easy if your partner exhibits those behaviors during her orgasm. +If she is talking through her orgasm, telling you what a good lover you are, how she's coming so hard, how you are doing such a great job making love to her, that's a clue she might be faking. +Real and truly powerful female orgasms should make it very difficult, if not impossible, for her to carry on a conversation while experiencing it. +2\. Her nipples are hard and erect during an orgasm +Most women experience pleasure when their nipples are played with. Often when sexually excited a woman's nipples will become harder and erect. During sex, most women enjoy their nipples being played with and this can cause them to become even harder and more sensitive. +During her orgasm, her nipples should be extremely hard, erect and sensitive. +Although not all women experience hard nipples during an orgasm, most do. By looking at her nipples you'll have a potential clue to tell if she's really having an orgasm or not. If her nipples are hard and erect it very well might be a real orgasm, if they are not hard and erect she might be faking her orgasm. +3\. Her orgasm causes body spasms +Almost all of my girlfriends and my wife experience stiffening and body muscle spasms just before and during real orgasms. As the orgasm washes through her body, the incredible feelings of pleasure result in muscles temporarily having contractions, sometimes very strong contractions. +Most women seem to tighten up just prior to the main part of the orgasm and not move too much. But once the pulses or waves of the orgasm hit, she will often spasm uncontrollably. +Note: Women who are faking an orgasm will sometimes fake the body spasms that go with it. +What I've noticed about real orgasm convulsions and spasms is after the orgasm starts subsiding, women will often stop moving and will lie completely still, or as sometimes happens with my wife actually start falling asleep! +I don't know what causes this behavior. My guess is the overwhelming amounts of pleasure she experiences during her orgasm causes a very strong euphoria that temporarily overwhelms her. +I think that perhaps a less powerful variation of this euphoria is getting into a hot bath or a jacuzzi and letting the pleasure just take you away to where you are just feeling, and not thinking or doing. +4\. Vaginas are usually very wet before and during an orgasm +For most women, just before and often during an orgasm their vaginas are very wet and covered in mucus coming from their Bartholin glands. Bartholin glands are the two glands just inside the entrance to the vagina that when stimulated produce a slippery mucus. This lubricates the vagina, making it easier for a penis or any object to slide in and out. +All of my lovers got very wet before and especially during an orgasm. I did have sexual relations with one woman who was 'dry.' I'm guessing her Bartholin glands for some reason did not work. She required us to use lubricants like baby oil or KY jelly to have comfortable sex. +For most women though, the Bartholin glands do their job well and so just before and during her orgasm her vagina and vulva should be covered, sometimes soaked, in wetness. +Assuming their Bartholin glands are working normally women who are faking orgasms, or the entire sex act for that matter, will probably be mostly dry in and around their vagina and especially around the lower half of their vulva. +Note: As women go through the change, or menopause, many of them experience a shutting down in the functioning of the Bartholin glands. My wife's glands for example completely stopped working. Her vagina become dry, and because of that any friction at all in her vagina was like 'sandpaper' as she called it. +By the way, all those 'squirting' videos you may see on the web? The vast majority, I would say virtually all of them, are not true 'squirting' from the Bartholin glands at all. They are just women peeing. If that's what you're into then just enjoy. But know that squirting and male ejaculation are different things and that the vast majority of women don't squirt from their Bartholin glands. +5\. Her toes are tightly clenched during an orgasm +One of the best ways to determine if her orgasm is real or not is to watch her toes. +This is not true for all women, but I would say the majority of women will tightly clench their toes just before and during an orgasm. I think this has to do with the spasms they go through as their orgasm convulses their body. +My wife became extremely good at faking orgasms once she realized I was watching for that. +The only way I could really tell if she was having a fake or real orgasm was by surreptitiously watching her toes. If she clenched them hard just before and during her orgasm, I knew beyond a doubt she was having a real orgasm. If her feet and toes were normal, then she was faking. +She became rather upset with me that I could tell when she was faking or not, and kept trying to find out what clues I was using. I of course kept this clenched toe clue a tightly held secret from her! +6\. Her mouth is usually wide open during a real orgasm +Most women who are having real orgasms cannot control their mouths. Most often, you'll see them with their mouth in an open O type of position. As I mentioned above, most are breathing heavily and vocalizing. +When women are having real orgasms they often are not aware of their mouth position. I've had many girlfriends and my own wife look horrified at their mouths when we would play back a home sex tape. +As mentioned above, if she's talking during her orgasm, and her mouth isn't in some sort of automatic uncontrolled O position, it's very possible she's faking her orgasm. +7\. Her genitals are extremely sensitive after her orgasm +All of my girlfriends, my wife and the great majority of women I talked to said that immediately after an orgasm their clitoris and genitals become very sensitive. This is especially true for clitoris orgasms. +My girlfriends and my wife typically would close their legs after their orgasm, often covering themselves with their hands. Many would roll over, their legs tightly protecting their clit and vulva from any stimulation. +We men have the same kind of issue. Immediately after our orgasm and ejaculation our penis typically becomes extremely sensitive, and continuing stimulation does not feel good. +If after her orgasm she pushes you away from her vulva and closes her legs that's a clue she has probably had a real orgasm. +But if she is faking her orgasm, she may be more likely to keep going. She may start vigorously rubbing her clit or vulva again, she may start inserting objects into her vagina again. These are all clues that her clitoris and vagina are not sensitive and therefore she may be faking her orgasm. +I've noticed that lots of porno and webcam videos featuring women display shaking and shuddering and body convulsions, then immediately start rubbing again. That's a clue that she may be acting and didn't actually have an orgasm at all. +8\. Vaginal and anal muscles will pulse with contractions +This is harder to see, and not always true for all women, but often a woman's vaginal and anal muscles will pulse with contractions during her orgasm. Some women have stronger convulsions and you can clearly see them. With other women, the contractions are more internal, or are not as obvious visually. Some women experience only minor or almost no contractions of the vaginal or anal muscles. +This clue is helpful if you are close to her open genitals and can see whether contractions are occurring or not. +I've seen that when women fake their orgasms they may forget to do these contractions, or they may not be able cause their vaginal and anal muscles to convulse. +As a side note, several of my girlfriends, and my wife, had such strong vaginal contractions during an orgasm that if my penis was not deep in their vaginas, or if it was not extremely hard, the vaginal contractions could push me right out! +Contractions of the vagina and anus are especially true for vaginal orgasms, which seemed to cause the entire vagina to spasm off and on for a long while. +Conclusion: How to spot a true female orgasm +So those are the eight main clues I use to try to tell if a woman is having a true orgasm, or not. +Again, I'm a guy, so I can only tell you what my research and observations have provided me. +Ladies, if I'm off base or something is not quite right just let me (billtomlin60) know by leaving comments. Understanding real orgasms from a woman's perspective will help us all get a better perspective on female orgasms and how to help create them. +Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, the reason women have orgasms is because they are enjoying their sexual experience. For a woman to have an orgasm, or even be sexually aroused, it takes being in the right mood, being in the right frame of mind and being in a situation in which she is comfortable, relaxed and wants sex. +Trying to force a real orgasm is the exact opposite of what you should try to do. Allow her to feel special, show her your love and shower her with attention. Enable her to feel attractive, sexy and cared for. The resulting feelings she has should allow her to enjoy sex with you and allow her the orgasms that come with it. +For the women I've known and spoken with, it's all about the relationship, the feeling of emotionally connecting with her partner. The sex is mostly about what's in her head, and how she feels about herself and her partner. +For us guys, it's a bit different. We just need some porn to view to trigger us and we're good to go! No emotion needed, just images of sex and we get excited. +So as you watch your porn or home sex videos try to watch for the clues as to whether the woman is having a real orgasm, or not. My bet is you'll become much better at spotting the fake and real female orgasms. +And I suggest you use this for your own partner. Watch her and learn if she's really having an orgasm or not. +And if you feel like maybe she's not having real orgasms, talk to her about it. Listen carefully to her. Perhaps change something about what you do when having sexual relations with her. I think you'll find taking the time to learn what causes her to have real orgasms is way worth the effort in your relationship, and your sex life! +There is nothing better than helping your woman have an awesome, real orgasm that gives her amazing amounts of pleasure. +Enjoy!" +501,How to Spot Arousal in a Woman,Selena_Kitt,How To,2008-12-12,2008-12-12,2022-01-04 08:33:51,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-spot-arousal-in-a-woman,Can you tell when a woman is REALLY aroused?,"['Advice', 'Arousal', 'Nipples', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To', 'Squirting']",4.1,"I have extremely temperature-sensitive nipples. A slight breeze blows by and the girls stand up like doggies begging for bacon treats. Which invariably makes Mr. Kitt's eyes light up. Every single time. I could have been shivering on the deck of the Titanic and he would have noticed my nipples getting hard in the cold. Seriously. +My inner comedy stage sports a bewildered Seinfeld: ""What is up with that?!"" +Look, I know there's some association between hard nipples and arousal and all... and yes, my nipples get hard when they're played with and sucked. But in public? You guys... if I'm out in public, my nipples get hard from temperature change, not arousal. If they're not being directly stimulated by, say, rubbing against my shirt or bra for some reason, there's just no nipple action going on. I don't think my nipples have ever perked up because I was turned on by some guy checking me out. But why is it I get the feeling the guy in the other booth just wouldn't believe that? +To quote Mandy Patinkin from Princess Bride, ""I do not think it means what you think it means!"" +As a woman, I'm much more subtle about my arousal than men. I don't have to worry about a hard penis popping up to say hello when I see something that makes me feel a little randy (or just because I bite into a peach or something...) And when my nipples get hard in public, it's usually a physical response that has little to do with arousal. (Really, guys. I swear.) If I get a little wet, no one's going to notice except me. +Arousal, though, is something men seem to want to be able to gauge concretely in women. They like to see the hard nipples - physical proof! Loud moaning (or even screaming) orgasmic bliss is welcome - she really likes it! And the ultimate proof, of course, is the squirt. There are thousands of web sites devoted to the subject. Except... I hate to break it to you... most of those cases (at least, on screen) are as fake as Sally moaning and slapping the table across from Harry in that infamous diner where everyone wanted what ""she was having."" +Not that women don't squirt. They do. But the important thing is to be able to differentiate between real arousal and wishful thinking. The reality is that hard nipples don't always mean we want sex. And if I were you, I'd double check that scream she let out during sex - was it actually in response to the pummeling of your cock or because she got a charley horse or was it just that you were leaning on her hair? +And the squirting thing? Women do not have gallons of water in their vaginas waiting to be released. Do some women actually ""squirt"" during sex? Yes. Is it the bucketfuls portrayed in most porn nowadays? No. +So if you're looking for a ""sure sign"" of arousal from a woman... you're not going to find it. I'm sorry, guys, but that mythical Holy Grail just doesn't exist. Every woman is different, and every ""sign"" that she's aroused is going to be different. You can't tell by looking -- women aren't puppies who can be picked up, turned over, and easily identified. Men are, of course, more obvious in their physical response to arousal, and while sometimes I think you guys would love it if we women ""were more like guys"" in that way -- but honestly, I think you like us just the way we are. +I'm going to tell you the secret to knowing if a woman is aroused -- the secret is, you can't tell. Not unless she wants you to know. That's the beauty of the feminine. She's fickle that way. It might be the nipples getting hard, or the hidden dampness of her panties, or even the light in her eyes when you whisper something naughty in her ear. But then again, it might not. And there's a reason for this -- women want you to pay attention. They don't want it to be the same every time. +Women's genitals are tucked away, like a sweet secret waiting to be uncovered. As a woman I was made to be discovered, explored, and unveiled, one layer at a time. I want you to pay attention, to really listen, to feel into me, through me, and then respond. Women aren't mathematical equations to be solved or figured out. We're mysteries. I like being a mystery. I'm a mystery, sometimes, even to myself... so rest assured, the ""sure signs"" you may be looking for may not mean what you think they mean. +Except when they do..." +502,How to Stop Smoking,CuckoldGuy,How To,2010-11-23,2010-11-23,2022-01-04 08:33:53,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-stop-smoking,Stop smoking and start fornicating.,"['Food', 'Karate', 'Self-Help', 'Sexual Stimulant', 'Smoking', 'Stop Smoking']",,"Target Date +Like a Karate Fighter preparing for a fight, you will need four weeks to condition your body and discipline your mind. First, you must set a target date of when you will stop smoking. Set your target date four weeks from now and be sure to set it after the full moon. Your target day will become your graduation day, for on this day you will graduate into a smoke-free stage of your life. +On the morning of your target day, you will place a moratorium on your smoking. You are not quitting, you are suspending your smoking for the next couple of decades. When you reach your ninetieth birthday, you can, once again, go back to enjoying a cigarette. The goal here is to get you to the age of ninety without going through life, suffering with shortness of breath and dragging an oxygen bottle around with you. +Stimulant Depressant Sea Saw +Get off the stimulant depressant sea saws. How many times I see people with a cup of coffee in one hand and a cigarette in the other. I did it myself. You take in caffeine, get stimulated, then you need nicotine to suppress the stimulation. Once the depressant takes effect, then you need more caffeine to offset the depressant. Up and down you go. Try to limit your caffeine intake and try to avoid those things that normally lead you to want a cigarette. You can do this. +Sexual Stimulants +Sexual stimulants are not something we eat or drink. They are unexpected events of excitement that we cannot avoid, in fact they are a welcomed pleasure but we need to deal with them, just until we get passed the need to smoke. By the way, the craving for a cigarette only lasts about four or five days in decreasing intensity. Once you are smoke free, sexual stimulants will take on a whole new role in your life and change the way you encounter them. Right now, when you are hit with a sexual stimulant, you reach for a cigarette in a desperate attempt to satisfy yourself by suppressing the stimulant and that leaves you in a depressant state. Let me explain; +During the years that I was a smoker, there were times where I would have an interaction with a woman. It could be a secretary, a clerk, a saleswoman, etc. Sometime during this encounter, she would lean forward as if to get a file or pick up a paper and as she did this, I would get a glimpse of her breast. This is a sexual stimulant and I would get excited. I immediately lite up a cigarette and started smoking because I needed to suppress the sudden, unexpected, sexual excitement. Did you know that a woman's nipple is about the same diameter as a cigarette? +Now look at what happens now that I don't smoke, under the same scenario. I become excited but now, instead of grabbing a cigarette, I say something like, ""O, how beautiful! +The woman looks at me, some what startled and says, ""What!"" +I reply, ""How beautiful today is. I wish I didn't have to come to work."" Then a conversation develops between us. +They say that it is easier for a man to quit smoking and I have to agree. For the most part we men respond to visual sexual stimulants and our sexuality is centered in our groin. We kind of have an impenetrable shield around us. We don't get all the signals a woman sends. We have to see it out in plain view. Sometimes I think a man has to be hit on the head and told, ""Hey, that girl is interested in you."" +A woman's sexuality consists of her whole body. When it comes to receiving sexual stimulants, her body is like a cell phone tower. She gets stimulants from every means and direction. It could be from a song, a man's voice, an aroma, the feel of a fabric or the look in a man's eyes. She feels the sexual stimulus or excitement throughout her whole body. Her breasts are over her lungs so when she feels excitement, she reaches for a cigarette, thus suppressing the sexual stimulant but it was her breasts that craved attention, not her lungs. +Food +I often hear a woman say, ""O, if I quit smoking, then I'm going to eat and get fat."" +I say, ""No. If you ladies quit smoking then you will begin fornicating."" As I said earlier, a sexual stimulant in a nonsmoker, leads to a comment, a comment leads to a conversation and conversations lead to relations. +Food is not a substitute for sex. Food is energy. You only need to eat very small amounts, probably half of what you eat now. If you eat until you are full then you have eaten too much. The food becomes toxic. Your digestive system becomes overloaded. It labors to digest the meal. After eating you should be energized but instead you become tired and lethargic. In the next four weeks try to cut down on the amount of food you consume. Drink water. Condition and discipline your mind and body. You can do this. +Iron Will +During the next four weeks begin by putting short moratoriums on the times that you would smoke. Challenge yourself to not smoke for longer and longer periods of time. By training yourself to go longer and longer between smokes, you will be purging your body of its dependence on tobacco and in your mind you will be developing an iron will. +When you feel excitement in your lungs, which you interpret as a craving for a cigarette, take six long, slow, deep breaths through your nose. If you can go outside to do this, all the best. Take the deep breaths and feel the clean, fresh, invigorating air deep within your lungs. Feel how it clears your mind. Why would you want smoke and tar in there? As you are taking these long deep breaths, draw on the spirit world for help. +The Subway +Think of your body as if it were a city and your arteries and veins were the subway system. The heart pumps blood in spurts or pulses. Think of each pulse as a subway train. The train leaves the heart and runs up to the Lungs Station. Here it stops and picks up the smoke, nicotine, tars and other pollutants. Then the train runs up to the Brain Station and deposits all of its passengers. The passengers or pollutants all fan out into the various areas of the brain, coating, clouding, fogging and dulling the senses. +When you're battling the urge to smoke by taking those deep breaths, think of your blood coming up to your lungs and getting oxygenated and then the oxygenated blood going up into your brain where it washes, enhances and clears your mind. Keep your mind focused. +Stress +""I can't quit smoking! I have too much stress in my life."" +Yes, I know you do. Part of your stress is self inflicted. Smoking does not help. It deceives you. It lulls you into relaxing or just feeling tired. Use the deep breaths to invigorate and clear your mind. When you do, you may see a way around the stress and call upon the spirit world to guide you. They will. +Smoke Free +Once you are smoke free, over time your senses will return. I know, you don't think you ever lost them but you did. As they return, you will begin to see clearly. Colors will become more vivid, sounds will become clear, smells and taste more pronounced. People will have more meaning to you as you become aware of their body language and the aura surrounding them. Because you can see so much more, you will feel that you are becoming telepathic. Your extrasensory perception will make itself known. As you inhale those long, deep, oxygenated breaths, you will begin to feel a spiritual awareness about you that you haven't felt since you were a child. +Being smoke free, you will begin to notice things about people who do smoke. They seem to be always negative, always complaining, never feeling really good. They seem to be oblivious to their surroundings. Their eyes seem to be vacant and some of them seem to have a death wish for themselves, like they don't care if they get sick. If they have an aura about them its dull. Sexual stimulants go over their heads as they reach for another depressant cigarette. +Conclusion +If you decide to follow this guide then please start by taking off your shoes. Stand facing the east, fold your arms across your chest, close your eyes and bow your head. Take a long deep breath through your nose and ask the spirits to help and guide you. +End" +503,How to Submit a Text with Audio Story,SunrockSin,How To,2008-12-16,2008-12-16,2022-01-04 08:33:54,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-submit-a-text-with-audio-story,The final steps to submitting a Text with Audio story.,"['Audio Advice', 'Writing Advice']",4.14,"Once you have completed writing and recording your Text with Audio Story with all the embellishments and effects you need, you are ready to submit your work to Literotica.

This will take you to an upload site where you can actually submit more than one file at a time. The first thing you will need to do is fill in the box to identify yourself. I normally fill in an email address here. Then you hit the browse button to locate the first file you want to upload. Simply locate your file from your hard drive and click on it. Once this is done it is very important you fill in the comment box adjacent to you file selection. This step is the key to a correct and timely submission. You need to put your Literotica user name and indicate that you will be submitting the text for the sound file using the online submission form. Make sure you indicate the title of you text file! Once this is complete, you can click to transfer the single file, or repeat the steps above to send multiple files. Now, depending upon your file size, it will take some time for the file to upload. Be patient and watch the bottom of the page for updates on how the upload is progressing. Do not close out of this page until the page changes and notifies you the upload was successful! If you click out to quickly, the file may be damaged or lost. +If you prefer, you can email the audio file in to Literotica. A link for the email address can be found in the FAQ under Multimedia Submission. When you send in the email you will need to be sure and provide your Literotica user name as well as the title of your text story in the body of your email. Once you have that information in the body of the email you can attach the sound file to your email and send it. +The third means of submitting the audio to Literotica lets you submit the sound portion of your story without having to record your story. You simply dial up the toll free number identified in the FAQ under Multimedia Submission and then read your story. Obviously you will have no real control over sound quality and you will be limited on any special effects you can add, but you can submit your audio even if you don't own any recording software. Again, you will want to be sure and provide your Literotica user name and the title of the text file. +Once you have submitted the audio portion of your file, the rest is relatively simple. You will then submit the text portion of your story as you would any other story, however, you will need to add some information to the comments box on your submission. To make sure the editors can associate this text with the audio you already submitted you need to identify how you submitted the audio, and if you uploaded directly to the site be sure and give the same email address or name you used to identify yourself on the upload form. You will also need to identify the sound file you uploaded by file name, including the extension. Once you have provided this information then you can complete your submission as you would any other story. +Keep in mind that, when you make a Text with Audio submission, the editors at Literotica will need to work to locate the audio and connect it to the text file, so be patient. Typically the editors will gather together the Text with Audio stories along with the Illustrated stories and post them around the same time, usually once a month, so your submission may take as much as four to six weeks to show up. If it runs longer than that you might want to PM Laurel and ask about your submission. +While there are always glitches in every system, if you follow the instructions above and pay attention to the FAQ links and instructions you should have no difficulty submitting your Text with Audio story. Please note that the above instructions also work with Audio Poetry submissions. Be sure and watch for other articles in How to Record a Text with Audio Story, How to Create Some Special Effects in Sound Recorder, and How to Write for a Text with Audio Submission." +504,How to Succeed at Life,sack,How To,2007-05-16,2007-05-16,2022-01-04 08:33:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-succeed-at-life,Eight tips to heighten happiness and diminish despair.,"['Advice', 'Happiness', 'Self-Help', 'Success']",4.71,"There are no magic formulas for success, but the older I get, the more I rely on a few simple principles to help get me through each passing day. One could argue that these are simply ""common sense"", but as my wise grandmother used to say, ""common sense isn't very common."" The common superficial indicators of success-money, a good job, fancy possessions, and a house on the water- really don't indicate much more than an individual who has focused his life on things. True success goes deeper, and that is what drives the following observations. Sorry, I can't guarantee that any of these will work for you, but by diligently applying them to my own life, I have noticed a distinct change for the better over the last 20 years. +1\. FIND YOUR PASSION +The most essential step to leading a successful life is to find your passion. Everything positive will flow from your pursuit of an area that truly floats your boat. There are many definitions of ""passion"" out there, but try this one out for size: +A PASSION IS SOMETHING YOU DO THAT MAKES TIME FLY BY +When I was a teenager, I loved to play piano. It always amazed me that my two hours of practice seemed to go by in a few seconds. On the other hand, if you are only playing piano to please your parents, spouse, or teacher, practicing will inevitably become an interminable agony. +Some possible passions are sports, gardening, music, reading, weaving, meditation, movies, and dining out. Pretty much anything is fair game no matter how offbeat. I have a good friend who discovered his true passion in life was growing orchids! Even more amazing is that he was able to develop an avocation into a vocation by buying a greenhouse and selling extra plants. +Not all hobbies will necessarily lead to full time employment, but with a little creativity, you'll be surprised at what is possible. In my life, I've turned playing piano into giving lessons part time, growing flowers to selling perennials at flea markets, and reading books to giving lectures on various classic works. +How do you find your passion? Join Internet newsgroups. Start a local club revolving around your specific interest. Get your friends hooked. Then merely sit back and watch what happens. In some cases, your interest may wane after a few months, but in other instances you will find a true passion, something that will consume your life until your dying breath. +2\. TAKE CHANCES +Nothing is sadder than someone stuck in a dead end job or hopelessly mired relationship. Change is always a little scary, and many people simply choose to be miserable rather than risk financial stress or marital discord. +Approximately one year ago, I was working full time with some of the most negative people on this planet. In addition, my position was going nowhere and I was doing more and more work for the same amount of pay. Then, on that fateful day May 31st, 2006, my life changed in an instant. While eating a bowl of cereal, I experienced very severe pain and needed to be rushed to the hospital. As the doctors muttered something about an ""unexplained abdominal blockage"" I was given the last rites. After making it through the night, I awoke with a nasal-gastric tube down my throat. Unable to eat or drink, I was given only ice chips for 5 miserable days. +Yet, while I was lying on my back for what seemed to be an eternity, I had plenty of time to think. And when I was released from the hospital one week later, the first thing I did was turn in my resignation. My family and friends thought I was crazy to leave a tenured position that paid $60,000. per year. But, I had seen the light, and you may be curious as to where I am one year later. Well, I have the most incredibly wonderful postition in the same field. I am treated with respect by a ""dream team"" of colleagues and next year will actually be making more money than I ever have... AND enjoying it! Yes, there were financial insecurities along the way, and there were times when bills didn't get paid. But I find it extremely ironic that I had to look death in the eye to finally learn how to live. +It takes a great deal of guts to change the status quo in your life. There are no guarantees, but if you follow your heart very little can go wrong! +3\. DON'T SAY ANYTHING TO ANYBODY +This was my mother's favorite phrase and it took me 20 years to fully comprehend the import of her wisdom. Gossip is extremely, extremely dangerous. If you are labeled a troublemaker at work your career is ruined. If you are catty and chatty in a relationship, you stand a good chance of losing your significant other's trust. A good rule of thumb to use if debating whether or not to say something is: +DON'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT SOMEONE YOU WOULDN'T SAY TO THEM IF THEY HAPPENED TO BE STANDING RIGHT THERE +A particular dangerous variant of the gossip game is ""But I only told one person!"" Sure you did, and that person only told one person, and the next guy in the chain only told one person, and before you know it everyone knows. Loose lips do indeed sink ships. Yes, gossip is quite tempting but at best only gives the gossiper a smug superiority...for a while. So, in the coming weeks, try to say five positive statements a day about people in place of anything even remotely controversial. You will notice a change for the better in your relationships almost immediately. +4\. LET SERVICE BE YOUR MANTRA +Leading a hedonistic lifestyle is almost always synonymous with unfulfillment and failure. Look at the hapless Virginia Tech shooter- an individual consumed with anger and totally engrossed in a fantasy world. People who service others are in a win-win situation. Success comes from the feeling of accomplishment by sharing your wealth of ideas and individual talents. Here's a short list of service oriented choices which can only heighten your feelings of accomplishment. And who knows?- you may meet your significant other or a special friend in the process. +a) Become a Big Brother/Big Sister/Mentor/Tutor +b) Volunteer to be on your community's P.T.A., or chaperone various school functions. +c) Help at your local church with a food bank or clothing drive. +d) Give free lessons in the area of your choice (I sometimes give complementary music lessons to disadvantaged children who cannot afford them.) +e) Build houses, repair dreams, mend broken hearts. +f) Become involved with Boy Scouts/Brownies, Den Mothers and Fathers are always needed. +g) Agree to be a ""Patient Visitor"" at your local hospital. I did this one Summer and learned more about life in two months than in my previous 35 years! +In this me-me-me culture, it takes considerable effort to look beyond yourself to the greater good. But I can think of nothing more powerful then servicing others, even in the smallest way. It will make you feel successful like few other activities can, and could easily change your life in a major way. +5\. ARRANGE TO BE LUCKY +It always seems that certain individuals are simply lucky, but I have discovered that you can indeed arrange to be as lucky as the next guy. For example, suppose you are interviewing for a particular job. Only allowing yourself 2 prospects means than luck could occur at most 2 times. But doing 20 interviews increases your possibility of luck tenfold! When I was interviewing for a new position, I did 25 interviews, of which 2 resulted in job offers. So, I was ""lucky"" twice. In a similar manner if you wish to meet new people, and have three blind dates over an entire year, you're not giving luck much of a chance to work. But meeting three people per month increases your chance of luck by a factor of 12. The truly ""lucky"" people stack the deck in their daily life so that luck has the maximum probability to occur. And sure enough, over time luck is sure to be a ""lady tonight"" without any extra effort on their part. +6\. FORGET ALL COMPARISONS +If I had my way, I'd abolish ALL competitions, contests, and any event that grades people. It only fosters dreaded comparisons, which is a major factor in depression and disillusionment. Let's face it, no matter how good you are at something, someone, somewhere, is even better. And conversely, even if you feel you are hopeless at something, I guarantee you could teach someone, somewhere, that is even more hopeless. +Instead of comparing yourself to some impossible yardstick, simply do. That's right, just do something. Play guitar, plant a rose, take a walk, climb a tree. Inactive people are the dangerous ones, the meddlers and parasites of society. Get yourself out there even if it is something as simple as weeding the garden. The body craves movement and activity, yet does even better without self judgements. Worrying about doing better at a particular sport, or feeling guilty about a past imperfect performance simply eats up time and immobilizes you. And an immobilized person is an unsuccessful individual. It's essentially as simple as that. +7\. FIND YOUR INNER GOD +Rather than endlessly wonder about the location of Heaven, or the existence of Satan, try to find your inner God. We all have a conscience, or ""tracking system"" to help us in times of need. I prefer to call this inner light ""God"", but you can call it by whatever term makes you comfortable. Your success in life is intimately tied to how well you are in tune with your ""soul"". Some people spend a lifetime ignoring their inner voice and the end result is confusion and despair. We all are stronger than we think...I brought myself back to life last year when I suddenly realized my work on earth was merely starting at the age of 47. Although the signal may be weakened by all the noise and junk we put in our lives, it is always there, waiting to be at our service. +Cultivate bewilderment, walk under the pale light of stars, and listen...I guarantee you will never turn off your inner God again! +8\. BECOME FRIENDS WITH ""YD"" +You have an enemy lurking in the bushes. And alas, it will never go away. The name of the enemy is YOUR DEATH, which I prefer to write as ""YD"" which seems a little less threatening. The final key to you leading a successful life is to come to terms with YD. Frankly, this isn't easy, and some individuals spend a lifetime trying to cheat death, only to be surprised as they approach the finish line. +One very simple thing you can do to feel comfortable about YD is to write your own obituary, no matter if you are 18 or 81. After all, no one knows you as well as yourself, and the experience will be quite humbling. Trying to reduce your life to a few simple paragraphs will inevitably force you to realize you are a mere speck, an asterisk, the head of a pin. Along the way you will discover areas of your life you want to put in your obituary, but can't right now, and this will lead to important changes in your future. I wrote my own obituary at the age of 25, which lead to an incredible two decades of self- exploration. If you have a significant other, you may want to write each other's obituary along side of your own. It is very likely the two obits will be quite different, and this could lead to a productive talk about future plans. +Another activity which will help you shake the hand of YD is to make a ""Death Gift Box"". This sounds morbid, but is simply an ordinary toy box that is filled with small tokens of appreciation for important people in your life, should you die suddenly or unexpectedly. You could write a letter to a friend, or dry an exquisite red rose for your mother. Be sure to tell someone or mention in your will the location of your death gift box, so your sentiments can be distributed accordingly. +Recently in my community, a gifted 36 year old teacher died suddenly in a tragic car accident. Fortunately, she had put together a death gift box. I cannot describe the looks on the lucky individuals' faces who opened presents from their friend's gift box. They found it almost impossible to put their ""treasures"" away, and as in most win-win situations, that teacher's memory is now perpetuated forever by a simple act of kindness. +I will never forget sitting next to my grandmother as she was dying 25 years ago. In a faint whisper, she asked if there was anything positive about death. I thought for awhile, then responded ""well, at least you can find out how that good dream ends!"" She laughed a bit, then was gone. Just as a sentence is a mere collection of words without a period, death is the period that gives life meaning. And all of our lives are ideally a good dream which death merely extends until the next lifetime... +I sincerely hope your life is as successful as it can be, now and forever! +Sack" +505,How to Suck a Cock,sandyvalleylad,How To,2011-11-27,2011-11-27,2022-01-04 08:33:56,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-suck-a-cock,Techniques to become a good cock sucker.,['Cock Sucking'],4.31,"**_Suggestions for Men or Women Who Want to Be a Great Cock Sucker_** +Cock sucking can be successful or not depending on the techniques used by the sucker. As a preliminary step anyone who wants to suck a cock should know where the sensitive areas are of a man's sex organ. +The entire penis is sensitive to pressure and the pressure must be just so for the man to have an orgasm. Too much pressure and it will feel like your cock is being squeezed by a vise, too little and you won't even know you are receiving a blow job. +For most men, circumcised men that is, there is a spot just below the rim of the head where it meets the shaft that is extremely sensitive. I try and lick or lightly nibble on that spot for my lover. It is usually on the far side of the cock from the stomach. As well the whole rim of the mushroom head is often sensitive and you can increase the erotic sensations by running your tongue around the rim of the cock head. +Another sensitive area is the scrotum or ball sack, particularly if the man has shaved his pubic area. Licking the sack then taking each testicle in your mouth, gently of course, is sure to elicit a groan of approval in your lover. Cradling the testicles in your hand as you suck on his penis is often another way to raise the erotic temperature in your oral sex. Don't squeeze hard but cradle them and roll lightly with your fingers. +The urethra is the pipe through which that most valuable of liquids, semen, travels to be sent into your mouth or over your face or indeed into your bum. It is sensitive often and lightly licking it can be a real turn-on for your man, particularly if he has started to ooze pre-cum. +When a man produces pre-cum be sure to use it and enjoy it as well. I usually use it to lubricate the head of the penis before I swallow it. +There are various positions that offer better access for cock sucking depending of course on the length and breadth of your lovers cock. If you are faced with a long cock I have found that laying on a bed with your head over the edge gives your lover a nearly straight path for his cock to go down your throat. Be sure to practice on a large banana, preferably a straight one, and remember to breathe through your nose. As you get more practice you can move from a banana to an English cucumber and on to a zucchini. At present I am able to swallow a moderate size zucchini of 10 inches in length without gagging with the correct throat and mouth position. +A 69 position is also comfortable for mutual cock sucking. I prefer to be on top as I find it allows me to better swallow my man's cock and I find the bobbing up and down on a cock is easier on my neck than laying on my back and having him drive his cock down my throat, personal preference. +If your lover has a normal (4-6 inch) length cock then the most erotic position is to kneel before him on a pillow and let him fuck your face. My current lover and I kneel before a wall of mirrors where we can both glance sideways and see what is going on. He loves me to start the sucking but as he gets into the mood he grabs my head and fucks my face until he ejaculates. +Speaking of ejaculation you have various options; swallow or let your lover ejaculate down your throat. Pulling out and leaving only the cock head in your mouth lets you enjoy the force of his ejaculation and the taste of his semen. You then have the option of laying or sitting back and enjoying the ejaculate in your mouth before you swallow or even share some of it back with your lover. I love the taste and texture of semen and take my time savoring it as long as I can before I noisily swallow, something my lover likes to see and hear. +Some men like to continue the power trip after face fucking by cumming on you, it's a dominance thing and I for one am completely comfortable having him cum all over my face. If he cums a lot I often get a mouthful before he pulls out and sprays all over my face. He will often use his erect penis to gather up his semen from my face and feed it to me, something we both enjoy. I was at a local bathhouse once and I had 4 men cum on my face and I walked around the bathhouse naked with their semen dripping from my face, my own badge of courage. Finally one man was so turned on by my semen soaked face that he sucked me to my own orgasm and swallowed my cum. +If you wish to extend your lover's erotic enjoyment there are several ways to help him stop cumming prematurely. As he gets close, you can tell by the flaring of the cock head you can pull him out of your mouth and tightly encircle his cock at the base with your thumb and forefinger. This dampens the feeling and further delays orgasm. Another manner to stretch out his orgasm is to place a small ice cube in your mouth as you begin to suck his cock. The cold temperature temporarily deadens the nerve endings that are primarily in the cock head and delays orgasm until everything melts and warms up. +If you wish to extend your lover's erection (without the use of that little blue pill) take a wide elastic and place it over his cock and balls. This keeps the blood in the penis and keeps it stiff longer. Whether it will stay stiff after he ejaculates is another matter. Most men require some recharge time before they can cum again, they may be able to get an erection quickly after orgasm but cumming again is another matter. I allow my lover 10 or 15 minutes after he ejaculates into my mouth before I attempt to bring him off a second time. Often I will play the subservient sex slut by my voice and ask him if he would like to fuck my ass and that helps his erection to return and him to have another orgasm as he uses my ass to get his rocks off." +506,How to Survive a Gargauntuan,Sean Renaud,How To,2009-04-02,2009-04-02,2022-01-04 08:33:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-survive-a-gargauntuan,If you've never had to survive a 400 foot tall lizard...,['Monster'],4.06,"I hope that you are reading this for purely comedic purposes. I hope that you haven't found yourself in yet another situation where my expertise in surviving the extreme going to be of some use to you but if you are reading this for your own survival my prayers are with you and I'll skip the morality tale until the end of this guide because you need to know the basis of how to survive a gargantuan. I'm going to start by defining gargantuan and then their most common types. +The gargantuan are Earth's way of punishing us for mistreating the planet that we live on. They are usually born of toxic sludge or nuclear radiation. This information is only of minor use, it might tell you how the creature was made and in certain cases how to defeat the monster though I highly recommend that you simply run for the duration of the attack and then ready yourself to rebuild afterwards. Only in the most extreme of cases should the monster be confronted. In fact right now we should review the first rule of surviving a gargantuan. I want you to say this part out loud. +Run, run or I'll be well done. +That's very important, particularly for the kinds that are capable of breathing any kind of fire or radiation. You'd be amazed how common it is that these giant monsters that can knock over buildings without trying and could easily kill us without being able to set the world on fire can in fact set the world on fire. I know it's not really fair but that's just the way that these things work. So if it can breathe fire/sludge/electricity/radiation you should get the fuck out as fast as possible. +Okay now we should take a moment to identify the monster. What are its origins? Is it a toxic monster that might be attracted to waste dumps? Is it born of nuclear radiation where it will be drawn to your power plants? Is it made of trash so you should get as far away from dumps or was it a military experiment? If you know what the creature's home or goals are you should make certain that you are not at the goal or equally important between the monster and its goal. +Is the monster intelligent, usually this boils down to if it looks like it's a giant mammal or a giant. . .well anything else. You can't reason with a giant lizard, it doesn't care what your name is or why you should be allowed to live. Giant insects have been known to respond well to singing midget women, if you can't supply any of these I suspect that a full collection of Bratz dolls and a recording of the Spice Girls ""Tell me what you want"" may suffice to sooth the beasts. Giant mammals, most often apes, are a bit of a problem. They can often reason out any traps that you've set for them and worse than that they will actively hunt down their goal, most often the sexiest blonde around. Normally I would say that you should fight for Nicole Kidman with all your might, but seriously King Kong will knock you straight the fuck out and there is no real point in you dying. +The final kind of giant monster that you can be having an issue with is called a Mecha. There are advantages and disadvantages to fucking with a Mecha. One on side is that a mecha has a human controller. The human being might be inside the mecha or might be controlling it remotely but there is somebody that can be reasoned with. More than that if the goal of this beast isn't to destroy everything you can just stay out of the way and you'll be just fine. +The best bet in general when caught in this circumstance is to find a place as far out of the beast's way and just ride it out. However since that is common sense and if you couldn't figure that out with out a guide there really isn't much point in expecting that you can read anyway. So instead of wasting any more time on that subject I'm going to instead explain to you what your best combat methods are if you find yourself forced defend yourself against a gargantuan. \ +The option that has shown the most success over the years is to hire your own monster. If you're city is known for being destroyed by a certain monster find it and wake it up. It's true that you run the risk of increasing the collateral damage to real estate but what do you care? There will be one less monster in the world and if you're extraordinarily lucky they might both die. Realistically though only the invading monster will die, the reason is simple. Home court advantage, works for sports teams, works for professional wrestlers, works for gargantuan, as a general rule gargantuan are extremely territorial and will never allow another be in their territory unchallenged. +People want to call out the military; if there is nothing else that we have shown it's that small arms are useless against these creatures. Generally it takes nothing shy of a missile to even get the creature's attention, which makes senses based on their size. The point that I'm making is that if you are calling military strikes you are wasting time, bullets and lives. The only exception is if you are Japanese. The reason is that I know for a fact that Power Rangers, Gundam Wing and the Big O aren't just entertainment; they are instructional videos on how to properly pilot mecha. If you have a four hundred foot tall robot that might, just might be enough to combat the threat. +Your military is much better used setting traps wherever you can accomplish. Pits lined with explosives have shown some success in battling these creatures as well. If you cannot set a trap, you cannot summon another monster and you do not come from a country that has produced bipedal tanks capable of traveling on any terrain without difficulty your options are severely limited. There are two things left and honestly both of them are long shots. The first what the military minds are going to be suggesting from the get go. Nuclear weapons. Now I want you to remember, the reason why this snapping turtle went from two feet across to two hundred feet across and capable of flying like a rocket by pulling its legs into its shell and firing radiation beams out is because it had a run in with nuclear power. I think you run a significant risk of just making things worse if you nuke the creature. The other is hope that science has a sudden break through. Considering that science is what got us into this problem in the first place it can often help us get out of the same situation. One time there was a pollution monster and we erected fifty foot speakers and played the ""Safety Dance"" until the creature died of boredom. +There is one last thing that I should tell you before I cut you loose into the world and that the all too common event that the monster you meat is something that is unprecedented. Such as bout two years ago when some monster ravaged New York, it sent out small hunters into the sewers. Basically you had all the problems of a gargantuan and a zombie infestation and since the strategies for surviving them are so different it lead to a great deal of confusion. When you come upon those situations I can only say to you that I hope you survive long enough to write your own addendums to this guide so that if I find myself in your situation that I can survive." +507,How to Survive a Long-Distance Relationship,bosombuddies,How To,2014-09-06,2014-09-06,2022-01-04 08:33:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-survive-a-long-distance- relationship,Because it sucks and I've been through it.,"['Advice', 'Humor', 'Long Distance', 'Love', 'Relationships']",4.41,"Speaking from my own experience, here are a few things to keep in mind if you find yourself in a geographically-challenged romance. +1\. Know what you're getting yourselves into. +Long-distance relationships are awful. Really, really awful. Don't make the mistake of romanticising what is happening. Don't imagine that you are somehow proving the depths of your love for one another. Life isn't a Nicholas Sparks novel, where star-crossed, heart-sick romance is something to aspire towards. In reality, you're cheating yourself and the person you love out of a whole lot of happiness and memorable life experiences. You're not getting more in touch with your emotions, you're hollowing yourselves out inside. It is going to be terrible, no matter what. And it is not going to get any better until it's over. +When it comes to long-distance relationships, my first and most important suggestion is to not attempt one at all. It's better to rip out each other's hearts and piss on them right now. Move on with your life. Pursuing a long- distance relationship is like pursuing a career in the arts-if you can even IMAGINE a version of your life where you're happy without it, then let it go. It's not worth the heartache. +That said, love is a pretty powerful thing when it's the real deal. Breaking up isn't always an option. So- +2\. When you do see each other, don't expect every second to be amazing. +One of the things you will never get used to is how insane those fleeting times are when you actually get to be together. There will be a tremendous amount of build-up and expectation to every in-person visit, and it will never live up to your sexy, romantic expectations. You can't cram two months of relationship into a two day visit, no matter how hard you try. The sex won't always be amazing, your date won't always be magical, and-more than likely-at some point you'll get in a huge blow-up argument with each other. If that happens, understand that these arguments are inevitable and necessary for your relationship to survive, so don't start blaming each other for ""ruining"" your planned romantic weekend with a fight. +3\. Don't cheat. +Yeah, this is important for EVERY relationship, but there are a few extra things to bear in mind if you're going long distance. You're always going to be very lonely, despite the fact that you've got a serious boyfriend/girlfriend. It's important that you don't start thinking or acting like you're single, even if you don't plan on actually being unfaithful. In a regular relationship, you can probably get away with a little extra-curricular flirting every now and then without it really hurting anybody. You're gonna see your partner in another day, at the most, and you'll be right back to normal. In a long-distance relationship, you might not get to see your boyfriend/girlfriend again for months. If you flirt with somebody at a party, you're gonna go home alone and drive yourself nuts imagining ""what if?"" +Remember: You've got to live with all the downsides of being single, but with none of the advantages. +The vast, vast majority of long-distance relationships I've seen have ended because one or both people wound up cheating. You need to be able to trust yourself and your partner 100% of the time, or it's just not going to work out. You can't be jealous or possessive and have a functioning long-distance romance. It's all or nothing. Either both of you are unshakably devoted to one another, or the house of cards is gonna collapse. +Of course, you should still- +4\. Masturbate all the fucking time. +Especially if you're a guy. It's amazing how much more clear-headed you feel after rubbing one out. Ladies, you need to accept that your boyfriend is gonna jack off watching internet porn. It shouldn't even need to be a discussion. If you think that's gross, or it falls into your personal definition of ""cheating""-you need to get over it. Men need to orgasm the same way we need to go to the bathroom. That's why 87% of the internet consists of porn. We need to orgasm, and we need some sort of visual stimulation to do so. Touch, smell, sound, atmosphere-none of these things are remotely as important for a guy's sexual experience as what he's looking at. +Which is why you should also- +5\. Send sexy photos/videos to each other. +This is huge. I kept a folder on my computer filled with photos of my girlfriend in various states of undress and it made me feel so much closer to her. Again, guys are visual creatures when it comes to sex, and one of the hardest parts about a long-distance relationship for men is not getting to see their girlfriends naked. All the lovey-dovey emails in the world won't equal a single photo of you in a bra. If you're worried about the NSA or hackers getting hold of the files, then just frame them from below the neck, or against some nondescript backdrop. +Video cybersex is even better, but if you're too shy for that or it's just not your thing, then a simple email with a jpeg or two can still really make a difference. +6\. Talk every single day. +Make the effort. You're never so busy you can't find time for a phone call. Don't just text or email, you need to actually hear each other's voice. If you can use skype or face time, then all the better, but do not let a day go by without talking to each other. And when you do talk, actually talk-don't just have the phone on your ear while your main focus is playing XBOX or whatever. One of the most important aspects of relationships-one of the reasons they are so important to us as human beings-is we get to experience the emotional validation of another human being who thinks we are the most important thing in the world. +You have got to make the effort to show your partner that this is how you feel about them, even when you're exhausted from a long day of work, or furious at them for something they said the last time you spoke. +7\. Let. Things. Go. +Chill the fuck out. Don't obsess over petty little things. Don't worry about things being ""fair,"" and don't worry about who is ""right"" in any given situation. Forgive. Apologize. Don't drag up old grievances as ammunition for tonight's argument. Don't hold grudges. Again, this is pretty basic relationship advice, but when you're in a long-distance situation it's even more important. You have got to check your ego at the door if you want to survive this thing. You don't get the same luxuries that normal couples do when it comes to arguments. You don't get to have make-up sex. You don't get to leave an apologetic bouquet of flowers on the table for them. You have got to be mature enough to move on without any outside help. +8\. Most of all: +Don't blame one another for the heartache and the loneliness that you feel. That's your fault, not theirs. Keep your chin up, don't be melodramatic, and masturbate twice a day. Doctor's orders." +508,How to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse,Sean Renaud,How To,2009-02-23,2009-02-23,2022-01-04 08:34:00,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-survive-a-zombie-apocalypse,Seriously. You never know when this will come in handy.,"['Kit', 'Satire', 'Zombie']",4.08,"This guide contains all of the information that you will need to survive a zombie apocalypse. We all know it's not a matter of if zombies take over the earth, it's a matter of when and if you are going to be one of the survivors. If you don't want to be one of the survivors then you can stop reading right now. This is for the people who are going to stand up and say not me, not today. I'm going to start with the preparations that you should already have, if you don't have them you aren't going likely to live long enough for any other advice I give you to matter. This part is kind of dry and boring but it's important so bear with me. +The first part is your zombie survival kit. You should have at least three of these one should be with in reach of your bed, one should be in your car and the last one should be in your workplace. You never know for sure where you're going to be when the end of the world starts and the last thing you want to be saying is gee I wish I wasn't stuck in bumper to bumper traffic my Zombie Kit is at home! So we're going to start with a simple list, feel free to add extra things if your feel the need or have special medical requirements. +• One gallon of water +• Ready to eat food for three days +• A pocket knife +• A whistle +• 50 feet of rope +• A baseball bat/machete/sword +These things represent the bare minimum that you are going to need to survive just the initial incident. You might not be able to leave wherever you are so it's important that these things be easy to get at. The zombies aren't going to call ahead and warn you of the impending end of the world. They are just going to happen. You might be driving home from school, you might be picking up your friend from the airport and you might be at you friend's wedding (if you are I encourage you to positively identify the zombies before exterminating them. It is possible that you are dealing with really bored humans who are of no real threat to you) The point is that you need to always be prepared. I personally have everything on that list in my house, my garage, my car and my office. I refuse to be a victim. +Assuming you live through the initial assault the next thing that your going to want to do is find yourself a place to hide. It needs to be a location that can easily be defended which means as few windows as possible. Ideally it is a place that is already stocked with food and water. I should point out that in states that are democratic this means you're best place is probably an Army Navy surplus store. It's probably got plenty of MREs and water. The guy who runs it is probably a survivalist so he's got guns in the back. I'm not talking the sissy guns you can get legally either. He probably has a grenade launcher and he knows how to use it. In states where the second amendment I still holding strong a mall is actually a good spot. It's got food water, and weapons. It is however very important that you thoroughly clear the space of zombies. +Once you've gotten your location properly secured you have to go about attracting and gathering survivors. It's a risky business because you might bring in zombies but you aren't going to survive the end of the world all by yourself. You're going to need help so you should gather people as quickly as possible and that means any and everybody. I know that somewhere out there a white supremacist is reading this and I'm gonna tell you right now. No matter what your opinion is of black people they aren't going to eat you alive and they will protect you from the zombies. (or if you prefer they will provide them with an alternate meal) this also applies to men with ex girlfriends. This isn't the time to be upset about who cheated on who, this is the time to not get dead and nothing else should matter. I suggest putting signs up on outside of your building telling other survivors that you are alive and you have a safe place for them. If the phones are working start dialing numbers at random. Keep the lights on. Anything you can do to get their attention is good. +When all of these things are in place then you need to identify exactly what kind of zombie your fighting against. It's very important that you know what you are up against because it matters how you will proceed at this point. Until very recently zombies were slow and shambling. Individually they weren't very dangerous it was only in hordes of hundreds or more that they were particularly dangerous. Generally they could spread their disease with a bite but anybody who was dead would rise on their side. Sometimes the recently dead would dig their way free of their graves. If this is the kind of zombie you are fighting against then your main problem becomes corpse removal and death watch. The last thing you want is for your grandmother to have a heart attack and then start biting everybody. Obviously you need to be on top of these things. There is no cure for this kind of zombie and they are usually only killed by destroying the brain. All those shots your pumping into the chest don't do dick. The source for this kind of zombie is also unknown. It is assumed to be divine. That's right God is pissed. Kinda makes you wish that he didn't promise never to kill us via flood again. It also makes you wish that fags weren't fucking guys in the ass and your sluttish daughters could keep their legs together. It also means that the only way you are ever going to see the end of this is to kill God. Which is usually easier said than done. Unless you've got a little girl and a polar bear you're pretty much fucked. This is one apocalypse that you aren't surviving. +Unfortunately starting around the year two thousand zombies evolved. They got smarter, sometimes problem solving smart like those dinosaurs from Jurassic Park. They can run now and are dangerous, deadly even as individuals. They also developed new weaknesses. The first is that they need to feed regularly. The increase in metabolism that allows them to run also needs calories. So they can and will cannibalize each other if they can't get to humans. They can and will starve to death and relatively quickly at that so the only thing you need to do is find a good place to hide and wait it out. They don't require head shots to kill, they aren't even dead. They have a disease. It might be a virus created in a lab for weapons purposes, or a hyper strain of rabies or even something transmitted from monkeys to humans. The important part is that this means there will be people who are naturally immune, there will be a cure or a vaccine. You can win! I hope find yourself in this situation. +Very rarely the zombies might retain some semblance of intelligence and of civilization. If this happens you're pretty much screwed. At this point you have to immediately discover and exploit whatever physical weaknesses they may have. I'll write a survival guide for those at a later point. It will probably be filled with all kinds of jokes because if you have time to read it you've obviously survived where as this guide may be of practical use during the initial stages of an outbreak. +If you've survived this long and gathered other survivors around you the time has come to make your long term plans. This varies from one type of infestation to another. If the zombies are of the diseased sort then you can run and get away from the source of the infection and outside any barricades built to contain it. If they spontaneously rose however you have to assume that everybody in the world is having the same problem as you are. My personal recommendation is to get to your nearest naval base. An aircraft carrier is going to be large enough to house any survivors your likely to find. It has a water purifier and best of all it's mobile. That's where I'm going! +Well that concludes my initial how to survive a zombie apocalypse. Good luck and always aim for the head!" +509,How to Survive an Affair,BatsandGlamour,How To,2009-05-04,2009-05-04,2022-01-04 08:34:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-survive-an-affair,If you ever find yourself in the situation...,['Affair'],4.63,"What Is an Affair and Why Have One? +Sounds simple, I know. First of all, let's qualify what an affair truly is, because there seem to be conflicting definitions. Obviously if both parties are unattached it's not an affair at all. If I'm married or otherwise in a relationship and you are, too, and we hook up for a night; that's a fling. If we continue this relationship, it's a full blown affair for both of us. If I'm in a relationship and you're not, it's an (extramarital) affair for me and for you it's just a relationship with an uncertain future, but not an affair. Same thing in reverse if you're attached and I'm not. +Now, there are going to be certain grey areas here, such as if we just hook up once or twice a year, if we have a non-sexual (does this exist—and why?) but superclose relationship, etc. But I think we all know that an affair is something, should it become public knowledge, would be bad news for one if not both of the parties involved. +I think that the ""why"" is much more complicated. One or both of you is: bored; starved for attention; not getting enough sex; getting unsatisfactory sex; turned on by someone you know from work, the gym or elsewhere and can't resist; your marriage sucks anyway; your spouse pays more attention to the car/kids/work/golf/sports or anything else in the world than he or she does to you and the bottom line is that you are need to feel appreciated because you are UNSATISFIED. Then of course there's pure chemistry, intellectual attraction and primitive lust all wrapped up in one neat package. +So then you meet someone who blows you away and what do you do? Well, you could have the courage (some might also call it lack of balls while some call it loyalty—I'm not here to judge) just walk away and forever wonder what if, or you could see where your heart takes you because your brain has just been put on hold. Let's choose the latter because that's what this article is about. +This article is about what you should know; what a good friend who has been through it will tell you if they've had the experience. It's not always easy to hear. It's definitely not easy to write, but it's all true...I promise. Lastly, please accept the fact that I write from a man's perspective so I don't have to jump through such unwieldy grammatical hoops as he/she or her/him or the most confusing and misused pronoun of all: they. +Scared Shitless +One caveat here: If your current relationship has hit a dead end and you've been looking for someone all along, this may not apply. And if that is the case you've got nothing to lose. But if your relationship is lacking in some areas but is workable, that's where this information would or will apply. +When you first meet her, the chemistry is undeniable. You don't know what's going to happen and you uncharacteristically don't care. She brings something to the table that makes the hair arms on your arms stand up. Her eyes, her smile, her hair, her voice—maybe all of them—do something to your wiring and you're hooked. You know what could happen, what might happen, and it scares the shit out of you because you know what you've got to lose. +But that doesn't stop you. +What happens next is up to both of you. You can, as I alluded to earlier, walk away and wonder what if, or you can walk towards each other and let fate make the decision. If you choose to do the latter it may change your life. And you very well may not care because for the first time in a very, very long time you are in the sun again. In the warmth of the sun that used to shine on you when you meant something to yourself, felt good about yourself. Attractive, witty, wanted—the real you before time and kids and life intruded to make you just another one of the crowd. +And it feels good. Shit, it feels great. You feel... +Drunk with Love +Now you've done it. You've slept with her. Do you just want to run away, burn your clothes and wish it never happened? Or do you, regardless of the consequences, want more of her? And more and more. +You, my friend, are falling in love. And it can happen just that fast—oh yes, it can. And it doesn't matter what you look like, what she looks like, what the world thinks or anything else that makes any sense at all. You are two people on an island and that's all that matters. The time you spend with her nourishes you; recharges you. Every conversation is wonderful. And when you see each other it's like you're high on pure oxygen. I will tell you this: there is no better feeling in the world. +And every time you make love it gets better. You've never kissed like this before, never felt your heart beat out of your chest like this before. Never wanted to make love day and night like this. Her body is perfect to you. You do things you've never done before—never wanted to or were never allowed to. But now it all seems natural, perfect. You make love for hours...days. You can't get enough of her. Over and over. +This is the life you were meant to live; this is way relationships are meant to be. Why have you had to wait this long to find it? +And you will fall in love. +How can you not? But what's next is that... +You Will Lead a Double Life +So you're living in bliss. You've found your soul mate and last but you're not together on a permanent basis yet so...you'll be leading a double life. You'll send and receive thousands of emails. You'll speak with your love when you can: at work, on the way home, on the weekends, walking the dog; whenever possible for as long as possible these conversations only cement your feelings for each other. After all, how can your conversations about family, bills, soccer games, grocery shopping and what's for dinner compare to your talk about love, passion and living the life you and your love have both dreamed of, but out of the shadows at last. You can't wait for that moment. +But in the meantime you'll have to lie like a Persian rug. In fact, nearly everything you do and say at home will be a lie because just living this existence is a lie. You're going to have to do an Oscar-worthy acting job to behave like you're the same person; that you're still engaged with your family and a part of what's going on at home when the truth is you couldn't care less. You just want to talk to and be with your true love. Everything else is back burner. Even your kids, if you have them, don't seem as important as they once did. You still love them, you still take care of them but your attention is elsewhere and that's fine. A good parent is a good parent no matter what, but you've got to take care of yourself; of your needs, as well, don't you? But you have to know that... +The Stress will be Inhuman +So you're trying to be the same person you once were. A valuable employee, a good wife or husband, a devoted father/mother/son/daughter/sister/brother. And you want to be, you really do. And you try. But you're life is filled with conflict. What to do, how to do it, what are the logistics of being together? You're home saying one thing and meaning another. You're biding your time until you leave and you've got a secret you can never tell to these people you've always been honest with. You're planning a family vacation when it's the last thing in the world that you want to do or would enjoy and you can't get excited about it because you'd rather be on a dessert island with her. Your fantasy life of being with your love is far more enticing than the pedestrian life you're leading. You're trying to hold it all together but... +The stress takes its toll. You're worried about being caught. Wondering when you can be together again and if it will last forever or not. It has to for all you're giving up, right? Besides, it was meant to. But in the meantime, you're living this double life on borrowed time, and your body knows it. You're nervous; not eating the same, maybe not exercising as regularly or far more than ever to be buff for your love. You guard your cell phone like it was your baby. And whether you realize it or not it will take an unholy toll on you. And it's one you may not even realize until much later on. But when you're brain is buzzing 1,000 miles per hour trying to compute all the permutations of what you're doing, what you want, how it affects others, how it will change your life and the thousands of less major issues, it's mentally exhausting. You'll see. And what's worse is... +You Don't Know What You Don't Know. +You know everything about your new love, right? You've talked about everything. You've shared everything about your past history with others, and you know you can trust her. You know she's not in contact with her last boyfriend or anyone else that might threaten your relationship. She's as ""all in"" as you are in every respect; you'd bet your last dime on it. +Sure thing. +Friends, you simply don't know what you don't know. If she's clever, you'll never see the phone records, the credit card bills or even her cell phone texts. And why would you need to? You trust her completely and she's given you every reason to. You're in love, for Christ's sake, how can you not trust her with everything, including your very life? And you'll ignore anything, any sign that she's not exactly who you think she is and want her to be. You're giving your childlike trust in her because doing anything else would be unthinkable and besides, I don't know her like you do, right? +Don't be an idiot. Sound blunt? Sorry. Don't be stupid. If you can't see her cell phone records, the texts she's sent and received, her cell phone and even credit card bills if you want...RED FLAG! Why, you ask, would you even want to see those things? Let's just say it's for shits and giggles. Let's say you've been burned before. Let's say...let's just say, that there's still enough rational adult left in you to be curious. +If you don't have the temerity (guts) to ask for some of these things because what would she think about you even questioning her integrity, I understand. It's a tough one. You don't have to do it. You don't have to know the truth. If she's hesitant about demonstrating her loyalty to you then ask yourself why. That's all I ask. Why wouldn't she be more than happy to show you her cell phone records (where you cannot delete texts or calls sent/received)? ""You don't trust me?"" she asks. ""Of course I do,"" you reply, ""is there any reason I shouldn't? I'll be happy to share my information with you as well, just to be fair."" +Again. Think about it. You don't know what you don't know. But one thing you must know is... +You're Going to Get Caught +You may think you're James Bond. You're covering every track. You've got a separate cell phone where the calls don't show on your bill. You've got a separate credit card or always use cash. No one else has seen you together. It's all worked great up until now but... +No one can stay perfect forever, and you're going to get caught. Maybe tonight. +Keep in mind that you've changed. In order to make this relationship seem so right, you've had to make your current relationship seem so wrong. You're acting different and arousing suspicion, whether you know it or not. Maybe it's the new cologne, the new clothes, the more frequent late nights at work or more business travel. Maybe it's calling your wife by another name (yes, it's happened). Maybe it's the new haircut, the new in-shape physique. Maybe it's an email you forgot to delete or you left you computer on just ONE time where there was something that shouldn't have been seen on there. +Maybe you just don't give a shit anymore and you're acting careless. Someone hears you on the phone. You use the wrong credit card for a gift for her. There are a million ways to get caught and all you need is one. +I honestly do not know one person in this situation who has not been caught. Well that's not true, I know one. And that's because I'm no rat, and that's a whole other story. But I can tell you that 99% of the time, someone is going to find out something and it will get out. Assume you're going to eventually get caught and then... +You've Got Some Decisions to Make +It's GO time or close to it. You're about to change your life and the lives of all of those around you. If you're alone or in a very unhappy and unhealthy marriage, then it's an easy choice. But that's not what this is about. +You're about to make what is probably the biggest decision of your life. Time for a gut check. You've talked to your close friends and have their opinions. Maybe you've even talked to a therapist. But in the final analysis, the decision—as all decisions of this nature are, really—is yours. Time to think clearly before you jump. +Are the things that are great about her truly great, or just different from your current partner? Are the things you don't like about her likely to cause problems in the future? Why are you overlooking them? Are you being yourself? Has she been totally, and I mean TOTALLY honest with you? +Is the life you've been wanting, needing and dreaming of with her going to be worth the carnage you'll cause and the costs you'll incur, both financially and emotionally? This is not something so simple that you can make a pro and con list. This is your heart, this is the love of your life and how can you live without them? But how can you live without your family? See what I mean about stress? +You are going to make the most important decision of your life. There WILL be winners and losers. There have to be. All I can advise you of is this: take your time if you can. Consider what things will be like 5 or 10 years up the road. Will you be happy with your love, having made the right choice, or will be alone by the side of the road because you didn't know everything you could have or should have. +Choose wisely...as wisely as you can, anyway. These are adult games we're playing now and there will be no second chances. But either way... +Someone is Going to Get Hurt +I don't even have to run the scenarios for you, do I? You leave your wife and family behind and they are shocked and angry, or shocked and hurt, and that hurts you, too. You stay with you wife and family and think ""what if...?"" for the rest of your life, plus you hurt the person who has made your life whole at last; brought you back into the sunshine. Now she, too, is hurt as are you, and worse, you have to suck it up and not act heartbroken, which you most surely are, at home and at work. +I'm sure you've broken up with someone you loved in the past. We all have. This is worse. Because chances are your earlier breakups were at an age when you had so much going on and so much to look forward to that although painful, they were not devastating. This is devastating. This rocks you to your fillings. You have nothing to look forward to but getting back to the life you were not so happy with in the first place. All is lost...it seems. Nothing will ever be the same—this much is true. +This is where you need your friends, your family, anyone who can offer you comfort. You don't have to even know them well. You'd be surprised how many of us are non-judgmental and have been through the same thing. It hurts and we know it. It's the worst hurt you've ever felt. This is where you have to call up all of your internal reserves and sincerely think about who you are, what your value as a person is, and how you can go on under these new circumstances. +The fact is, you can go on. You will; you must...please. Life is full of surprises, some are good and some suck. You've had a wonderful time and you'll never forget it. I totally get that, and the pain. But you are still a viable human being with something to offer to people. If not your family and friends, then new friends you'll make and meet. There are still good things out there to do and good people to do them with. Now is not the time to give up. Remember how special she made you feel? You ARE that special. Others will notice it, too. There will, of course, be... +The Aftermath +There's an expression, ""don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."" +For the record, I hate expressions like that. Maybe they apply to a movie or play you just saw, but not to the end of your life as you knew it. I'm speaking here of both scenarios, really, but mostly to the end of the affair. If this is not the case, if you ended up with your new love and are happy and content at last, then a toast to you. Good. You got what you wanted and deserved. +But what if it didn't work out that way for you? If trust, distance, logistics, cost, reality and the million other potential snafus put an end to a relationship you loved and cherished, then you must still go on. Yes, you must. But know this, you will be a changed person. +You'll never be able to listen to certain songs. An expression someone uses will throw you for a loop. You'll be walking behind someone with a similar shape and similar hair to hers and your pulse will race. As you get closer, close enough almost to smell her again, she turns around or turns her head and it's not that face you loved, just the face of another stranger. What you wouldn't give to see that face just one more time, feel her touch, her skin, her kiss. +This is tough stuff, my friends; the toughest there is. You'd rather take a good beating than cope with this heartache. It's going to take time. Lots and lots of time and even then you may be haunted by her memory for life, if the bond was that strong. +You may reconnect with her from time to time but it only sets back your recovery, really. If the relationship ended for the right reasons, which I mentioned above, then starting up again would just end up the same, perhaps worse. +I cannot tell you it will be easy. It's a death. The death of a dream, of a cherished hope that you would live each day in love and with passion. Was it a dream or reality? Is the reality that all relationships lose their luster over time and the only way to keep the dream alive is to move from person to person? Were you living in a fantasy of your own making, not having to be bothered with bills, sick kids or parents, no grass to mow or dishes to clean up? How would it have been in real life? +I cannot say. I can only leave you with this: if you embark on this journey, or if you have already done so, it can be a hell of a ride for a hell of a price. It may be worth it, because of the utter joy you will feel if for once in your life. It may not be for the pain you cause, primarily to yourself and the person you've fallen for. +Ultimately, as in most things in life, the decision must be yours to make. Good luck and best wishes to all of you.

Depression really sucks, but it can be survived. 2. More tips for survival.","['Depression', 'Medication', 'Post Partum']",4.71,"One of the bad things about depression is that it can sneak up on you and blindside you when you least expect it. Another bad thing is that you may not realize that you have it until your entire life is unraveling around you. +Consider too that there are a lot of different kinds of depression: seasonal, manic, post-partum and more. My symptoms were not the classic signs of depression. I did not stay in bed all day with my head under the covers. I was irritated. Everything irritated me: my kids, my husband, my dog, the way my cloths fit, my job. Another major symptom was that I lost all coping abilities. My daughter would spill milk on the table and my day was ruined along with any kind of positive mood. The moral to that paragraph is that you don't have to have all of the classic symptoms to be depressed. Do some research or just go to step #1. This leads me to step number one of surviving depression. +1) Talk to a doctor. Yes I know, the easiest thing in the world right? NOT. Actually going to the doctor and saying I am depressed and I need help was one of the hardest things I have ever done. Probably the only reason I did was: I was scared of how I acted with my kids and my husband said get help or move out, without the kids. +2) Get your medication and keep trying till you get it right. Once you get to the doctor and get some anti-depressants everything is peachy, right? No, sorry but It doesn't work that way. The first medication I took helped a great deal but I was nowhere near one hundred percent. The dosage was upped once and then twice helping a bit more each time. Two years later I got a new doctor (we moved, I didn't actually seek one out) and she kept me on the original medication and had me try another along with it. HOLY HELL what a difference it made. The sun shone down and the angels sang in four part harmony. Two days on my new meds and I was a different person. I was awake for the first time in two years and I was horny as hell (much to the delight of my much neglected husband). +You may think that one kind of medicine is all you need but I discovered that there are THREE different chemical pathways of the brain that can all be malfunctioning; one at a time or in any combination. This means THREE different types of anti-depressants that you take one at a time or in any combination. +Do not think that you can't ask to try something else if you feel that it is not working for you. If your doctor won't work with you FIND ANOTHER DOCTOR. +3\. Try a therapist at least once or twice. If you can't afford one check out one of the pastors/priests/rabbi in your area. Yes I did this, I called a total stranger and asked them to help me, and you know what? She was available to me immediately, on a Saturday, on her day off, she dropped everything to help this sobbing stranger on the phone. I don't remember her name at the moment but she is one of those people that I will never forget and will always be grateful to. +I know you are thinking --hey I have my meds now everything is going to be great and I shouldn't have to do anything else. WRONG. Chances are that the relationships around you have taken a beating and so has your own emotional self. You may have withdrawn from everyone around you and you need an outside party to help you figure things out. Could be you only need to go a couple of times, or a couple of times a week. Which ever it is don't shortchange yourself from getting the help you need. +4\. DON'T STOP TAKING YOUR MEDS WHEN YOU START FEELING BETTER. My doctor warned me that the first drug I was taking was one of those that you take for a while and it builds up and maintains a steady amount in your body. The withdrawal symptoms could be WORSE than the depression itself. The second was one that acted in much the same way. +Talk to your doctor if you want to get off your meds and they will tell you the best way to do it and can monitor you. +These are definitely strong drugs that you are dealing with and you need to treat them with respect. +My doctor warned me too, that although it was post-partum depression I was dealing with I had enough history of depression in my immediate family that I could have triggered something in my genetics and be on meds for a long time. +(And yes I think people like Tom Cruise who have the gall to criticize people that have gotten help (Brooke) should be locked in a small room with ME, OFF OF MY MEDS until they realize what idiots they are. If God ever grants me one wish it would be that people like him experience post-partum depression in all it's glory so they can see what it is like.) +5\. Be active in your recovery. Do research to find out more about your type of depression and the best ways to treat it. Join a support group. Do what you need to do to stay healthy and realize that sometimes everything else must take a backseat to you working on the problem. Everyone around you will benefit from you staying healthy. +6\. Try not to strangle friends and family when they offer well meant advice, comments or do anything else completely stupid about your depression. Depression is a disease. In some cases it is temporary and can go away. In many others the 'hard wiring' of your brain is off and you are not making enough of the right chemicals. The only way to fix this is to take your meds. Sometimes you think you have it licked and you end up facing the same problem again. Most people don't realize that some people can never be cured. Short term depression does happen and you can get off the meds, end the therapy and live happily ever after. For the rest of us, we will be living with it for a long time. It is a chronic condition that can be managed quite well. +My own mother who has suffered from depression, and holds a Masters degree in mental health keeps asking me if I am off my medications yet. HELLO she should know better, but apparently doesn't. After putting up with it for so long I simply told her that I didn't appreciate her comments as they made me feel that I should be able to cure my depression all by myself; which was like telling a schizophrenic that they could stop taking their meds and be fine. Furthermore her comments were undermining the fact that I was taking my meds to make me feel better and maintain my health. I also told her that my doctor was the one who would help me make the decision of if and when I would go off them. She shut up about it and hasn't said anything since. It is nice. +Be polite but be firm. You and your doctor know what is best for you. And they need to but out. +7\. Express your appreciation regularly to the people that stuck with you. My husband did not divorce me. I WOULD HAVE DIVORCED ME. He stuck with me because he loved me and cared enough about me and our kids to help me work it out. He is regularly thanked and gets laid all the time. (He loves my new meds as much as I do!) +I would love to hear comments from you. (With the exception of Tom Cruise of course, unless it is an apology to me and every other female and family member that has been effected by depression. A box of chocolates would be nice too, Tom.) +Keep in mind that I am not a medical professional and my advice is just that...advice. Stay healthy. + +" +511,How to Survive in a Foreign Country,Aurora Black,How To,2006-05-17,2006-05-17,2022-01-04 08:34:03,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-survive-in-a-foreign-country,Advice for tourists traveling abroad.,"['Advice', 'Foreign', 'Preparation', 'Safety Tips', 'Tourist', 'World Travel']",,"_Copyright Aurora Black, May 2006_ + _The author asserts the moral right to be identified as the author of this work._ + _Author's Note : I am **not eligible** for this contest, but I'm glad you stopped by. In writing this How To, I'm assuming that you're a citizen of the United States. Everyone else, sorry. The following may still apply to you, however. We'll see._ + _Thanks to Zeb for the last minute edit & suggestions._ +* * * +So, you've decided to go on a getaway. You've got the perfect destination in mind, you've made all the necessary travel arrangements (I hope you shopped around first), and now you're almost ready. Why almost? Because you haven't yet read this guide, which contains all the information you need to make sure that you have the safest and most rewarding international vacation in recent years, if ever. +If the above statement sounds cocky, it's because I know exactly what I'm talking about. I've been fortunate enough to travel to many foreign lands, and I know the drill. So if you want to learn more, follow me. +* * * + **Before You Leave :** + **#1: Get your documents ready.** +Before leaving the country, you must have a valid passport. If you're traveling with family, each relative must have their own passport (including infants). If you don't have a passport, you can apply for one in person at locations such as courthouses, select city halls, or post offices. +Requirements for a U.S. Passport: + **1.** You must fill out the _Application for Passport_ , Form DS-11. (Do NOT sign the bottom of the document until the Passport Acceptance Agent tells you so.) If you're renewing your passport, you must fill out Form DS-82. + **2.** You must give proof of U.S. citizenship by either presenting a previous passport (if you're renewing) or a certified birth certificate issued by the city, county or state. (The birth certificate will be returned to you when the new passport is mailed to your home.) + **3.** You must prove your identity to the agent by presenting a photo ID, which can either be a driver's license, previous passport or a government/military ID. (Social Security cards don't count.) + **4.** You must provide two passport-sized color photos (2x2 inches) which have been taken within the last 6 months prior to the passport application so they show your current appearance. You can get them done at any photography studio. + **5.** You must pay a fee of $97 for a first-time passport if you're 16 years of age and above (as of May 2006), and $82 under the age of 16. For a passport renewal, the price is $67 for adults only. If you need a passport in a hurry (in case of an emergency), you must add an extra $60 for each passport application. Cash is acceptable in addition to credit/debit cards, personal checks, money orders, etc. All payments are non-refundable. + **6.** Finally, you must provide the Passport Agent with a valid Social Security Number. (If you fail to provide this, the IRS can fine you $500.) +When all is said and done, you should get the passport within 6 weeks (unless you choose Expedited Service and pay the extra fees mentioned above, which will speed things up so you'll get the passport within 2 weeks). Because of all the waiting involved, it's a good idea to get your passport at least several weeks before your scheduled departure date. +You should also make **at least two photocopies** of all important documents such as: +The passport page that features your photo, passport number and other identifying information, as well as any applicable travel visas. + **1.** Travel insurance policy information. + **2.** Plane ticket information. + **3.** Serial numbers for Traveler's Checks. +Keep one copy of these documents at home, and carry the second copy with you on your trip (in a safe place, yet separate from the originals) in case you need them in an emergency. In the case of loss and/or theft of your documents, you will need these copies to take immediate action with local law enforcement and the embassy/consulate in the country that you're visiting. +Regarding money, you should have some of it converted to the local currency before you leave so you won't waste time searching around for a place to do it once you get there. However, if you want to avoid hefty charges as a result of the exchange rate, you have the option of withdrawing money from ATM machines via your credit card. You'll get instant cash when you need it without having to pay extra fees for conversion, but you'll be charged by your credit card company for each withdrawal. Make sure to discuss this with your company before leaving. +Now that all the legal stuff is out of the way, it's time to move on to my favorite part. + **** + **** + **#2: Study Up.** +I cannot stress this enough. You cannot have too much information on where you're going! The more you research, the better your position will be to handle whatever situation comes your way when you're actually at your destination of choice. +One of the best investments you'll ever make for your trip can be found at your local bookstore: an up-to-date, in-depth and professionally written travel guide that deals specifically with the country you have in mind. There is a huge market out there for the hopeful traveler, and as a result there is a wide variety of these useful books to choose from. Browse around, feel free to take a look inside and see what each book has to offer. Don't be fooled by the pretty covers; make sure that you find **exactly** what you need within the pages. Let me show you what I mean. +Travel Guide ""Must Haves"": + **1.** Detailed descriptions of all of the goal country's regions and cities which you intend to visit, including tourist attractions and local events that may be of interest. + **2.** Detailed maps of each city that you plan to visit in the goal country, which clearly mark the locations of local police stations, hospitals, banks, and embassies/consulates. + **3.** Detailed listings for transportation to and from your selected destinations within the goal country, including up-to-date phone numbers and addresses of the agencies. + **4.** Information on the current exchange rate between your country's currency and that of the goal country. + **5.** Prices for tourist attractions, local museums, archaeological sites, hotels, restaurants, etc. + **6.** Safety tips, warnings, phone codes to call home, information on calling cards, etc. + **7.** Suggested itineraries. + **8.** Relevant historical information on your country of choice. + **9.** Relevant political information on your country of choice. (This is more important than it sounds! Politics can mean the difference between a pleasant trip and a nightmarish one, so please read up on the subject before you leave so you'll know what to expect.) + **10.** Useful words and phrases. (Very important. I'll get to this shortly.) +The above mentioned features will make the book your new best friend on your travels abroad. It will save you loads of time and effort when it comes to figuring out where you want to go, which sights you want to see, where to eat and so on. Not to mention how much everything will cost once you're over there! That's a lifesaver in itself. +I personally recommend travel guides from either **Lonely Planet** , **Rough Guide** or **Let's Go** for those who are on a budget yet still want to have a great time. If you can afford a more luxurious vacation, you may want to kick things up a notch and spring for a book from **Fodor's**. +In addition to the book learning, you can also read about your destination online. There are thousands of travelogues, tourist sites and blog entries written by those who have already been where you're going and are willing to share their knowledge. + **#3: Learn the Language.** + **** +No one's going to quiz you about how much of the foreign language you know, but it's very useful to know at least a few words in case of an emergency. I strongly recommend that you learn the following words & phrases in the other language to use when you're caught in a sticky spot: +""Do you speak English?"" +""I don't speak (Insert language here)."" +""I don't understand."" +""I am lost."" +""I need a ticket / room."" +""Good morning"" / ""Good evening"" / ""Goodnight"" +""Please"" and ""Thank you"" (You'll be amazed at how far courtesy will take you abroad.) +""Excuse me."" +""Hello"" and ""Goodbye"" +""Yes"" and ""No"" +""Help!"" +""Go away!"" (Scare the shit out of the local con artists who try to rip off tourists by shouting at them in their own language. Trust me, they'll freak out and leave.) +""Fuck off, asshole!"" (For the same reason as above, but be careful. Since curses may not be available in the Glossary section of your travel book, I recommend **Swearsaurus** , which can be found online and contains tons of insults in several languages.) +""Police!"" +""Hospital."" +""Ambulance."" +""Taxi."" (Okay, this may be the easiest of them all.) +Hopefully these helpful words and phrases will be included in your trusty travel guide. + **While You're There :** + **#1: Please (Please) leave the ""Ugly American"" attitude at home.** +It happens all the time abroad. Loud and obnoxious tourists walking down the street, raising hell in restaurants and hotels, and treating the locals with disrespect despite the fact that it's **their** country that the jerks are visiting. +The worse case scenario of this is when people visit a foreign country and get drunk or stoned off their asses, start fights, commit crimes, and even engage in physical acts of violence with the natives. +Examples of this kind of behavior: The scandal involving Michael Fay and the caning in Singapore. Or an incident which took place a few years ago in Athens where a group of British teenagers brutally attacked the owner of a convenience store, stomping on him and breaking both of his legs. This is a growing epidemic. +For the love of God, please don't be an asshole on your travels. You'll not only make yourselves look bad, but also the country you represent. Sure, you'll still be smiled at by those who want your business, but they won't respect you because you're not doing anything to deserve it. ""They're Americans / Brits / Germans, aren't they? Jesus God..."" + _""Do unto others as you would have them do to you."" - Luke 6:31_ + **#2: Watch Your Valuables (and your Clothing).** +Every once in a while, I see tourists doing their thing downtown and I take a moment to observe them. I sip my tea and watch them from a nearby cafe as they tote around their heavy backpacks, their shiny and expensive cameras swinging to and fro from their neck straps as they walk around on Birkenstock-clad feet. It's an amusing sight for me because I was once like that, but that's another story. +I've noticed that tourists are dressed in a very specific way that sets them apart from the natives, and that's not a good thing. No doubt they follow the dress code guidelines put to them by the travel guides; dress comfortably and for the weather, comfortable walking shoes, etc. The clothes, however, along with the camcorder and fanny pack, scream that you don't belong. There are also those who wear a lot of flashy jewelry while on vacation. My opinion upon seeing these tourists is that they may as well put up a sign saying ""Hey, come rob me,"" but that's just me. +I can't change your mind concerning what to pack and wear, but I **can** tell you this: **Please avoid wearing anything featuring flags.** If you walk down the streets with a T-shirt / sweater / jacket with either the **U.S. flag** , the **U.K. flag** , or any type of **political slogans** , you are flirting with disaster. Most likely you will be approached by strangers who want to be your friend (yeah right), or you'll be harassed. You will be seen as an easy mark for con artists and thieves who think they can take advantage of you because (to them) you are just another ignorant, stereotypical tourist. +You can prove them wrong. Keep these things in mind while you're packing. If you have your eye on the brand-new piece of clothing that says ""USA ROCKS,"" don't take it along. +As for your sexy cameras, camcorders and cell phones, keep your eye on them. Make sure that the straps are tight around your wrists while you're shooting pictures for bragging rights later. While you're out on the town, secure your backpacks with either a tiny padlock or a safety pin to prevent sneaky little hands from getting into your goodies. + **#3: Watch Your Ass.** +Safety in numbers is the best way to go when you're visiting a foreign country, especially if you're a woman. Try to stay in public places, day and night. If you absolutely must go out after dark, use the buddy system. If you're out very late and need a taxi, but not sure about the language, make sure you have your hotel's name and address written down on a slip of paper to give to the driver. +Be aware of what's going on around you at all times. +In nightclubs, never leave your drink unattended. There have been cases of men slipping date rape drugs into women's drinks, and then following them into the bathroom when they become ill. +If you're alone and someone approaches you, walk in the opposite direction as fast as you can. If he follows you, don't try to lose him by going off the beaten path. There's nothing wrong with calling out for help. Loudly. Draw attention to the asshole, and he'll retreat. Believe me, I have done this several times when I found myself with an unwanted guest at my heels. The stranger counts on your being afraid so you'll panic and put yourself in a position to be robbed or worse, but you have the power to make sure it doesn't get that far. Scream and draw people's attention to what's going on, exposing him. He will leave you alone. + **#4: Most importantly, have fun!** +While the warnings I gave you above are essential for your safety abroad, don't let them distract you from the joy of your trip. It is possible to be vigilant and enjoy yourself at the same time, so try to get the most out of your travels and make memories that you'll treasure forever. +Exploration is knowledge, and I applaud your decision to see the world outside of your own country. You'd be surprised at how many people never do. So rest easy, feel the excitement of your approaching trip and have a blast!" +512,How to Survive Internet Dating,rachlou,How To,2007-01-15,2007-01-15,2022-01-04 08:34:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-survive-internet-dating,...with your sanity intact.,"['Advice', 'Cyber', 'Dating', 'Internet', 'Relationship Advice', 'Self-Help']",4.51,"Internet dating is like most things in life -- a lottery at the best of times. There will always be people for whom it works, as well as those who gleefully tell you their horror story of the psycho who required a restraining order against them after the second date. +I am not going to lie and say that I have had huge success with it. I haven't most of the time. But, there are cunning ways and means you can employ to allow yourself to gamble with the best odds and thus increase your chances of success. + **Before You Jump into the Shark Infested Waters...** +Firstly, and most importantly, have a long hard think about what exactly your expectations are. If you have no idea what you want from the dating scene, then it is unfair to expect anyone else to know what want. (Not unless you plan on dating psychoanalysts) +If you have just come out of a long-term relationship/marriage, it is probably better to allow yourself at least six months or so to get over the last significant person in your life. Most people are understandably wary of dating anyone who has very recently split from an ex. Nobody likes to be that 'rebound relationship' It is doomed for many legitimate reasons, not least the nagging worry you will get back with your ex every time they ring up and ask you to come and fix the washing machine. +If all you want is casual sex, then at least be honest about it. There are plenty of like-minded individuals out there who are after exactly the same thing -- no strings sex. Many of them are already married and cannot possibly commit to another person, but they still fancy a fuck-buddy to play with occasionally. +This is fine if you are up front about it. There are plenty of dating sites that cater for that type of relationship. Go there and add your kinky nude picture and see how many 'hits' you get. And good luck! +If you are looking for marriage and six kids, there are also plenty of people out there who are after the same thing as you. Again, be honest about it. Okay, it might not be prudent to admit your 'beach wedding in Fiji, followed by six kids' fantasy, all on the first date. This kind of behaviour is likely to get you labelled as a potential stalker. But, if your ambition is to settle down and play house, then it is only fair to let potential dates know you are hoping for something more serious, _should you meet the right person._ +Most people tend to be looking for something in the middle of these two extremes. +Dating is rather like buying shoes -- you have to try an awful lot on for size before you find the ones that fit just right. So now it is time for a little shopping... + **Selling Yourself...** +Once you have given some thought to what you are looking for, the time has come to find a website that matches your needs. +All sites tend to have far more men than women on their database. This may seem a little unfair, but tough, that's life. It just means that if you are a man, you have to work ten times harder! (Well there has to be some benefits to being female) +A decent profile will make all the difference. If you are a man and you don't post a photo, you may as well forget it. Most of us women are a shallow bunch and will not bother with someone when we have no idea what you look like. Okay, so you might just resemble George Clooney, but on the other hand, you might also look like Quasimodo's twin brother. +While we are on the subject of pictures, please post a recent one! That photo your ex took of you in Florida ten years ago, might make you look like a Baywatch extra, but its called 'false advertising' when we eventually meet and you are now 200lb heavier with a shiny bald head! +A recent, decent photo will make all the difference. Preferably a close up of your face as well as a full body shot -- and NO, not a nude shot! + _(A small piece of friendly advice here - we women really don't appreciate it when you send us rude pictures of your dick after we engage you in conversation. You might think we are drooling over it, but actually we pass the pictures between our friends and have a good laugh, so be warned)_ +Be honest and up front in your profile blurb. A sense of humour is an excellent way of attracting women and men. Hobbies like gun collecting and breeding pit bulls are definitely not. +Once you have a decent profile and picture on the site of your choice, sit back and wait for the babes to fall into your in-box.... not! +You have to be proactive. Be prepared to sift through the endless photos and profiles and contact as many as you like the look of. For every twenty messages you send, one person _might_ answer. If you are a woman, you can maybe afford to sit and wait for the men to come to you. But if you are a man, you really need to do the legwork. + **What Happens Next?** +Okay, so you sent a message saying 'Hi, I like your profile!' to that gorgeous person you fancied the pants off, and they actually answered!! +What do you do now? +Well you write back to them! The best way is to keep it short but sweet to begin with. Ask them questions that build up on what they have said in their profile. Show them that you are interested in them as a person, not just as a potential sex romp. +If they seem interested and reply to your messages within a reasonable space of time, suggest a chat on messenger at their convenience. This is a good way of deciding whether or not there is any kind of rapport. +By the way, if a person takes more than a few days to reply to your messages each time, it is a sure fire sign they either have hundreds of other people messaging them, or they are really not interested and are too polite to tell you. Cut your losses at this point -- you are backing a three-legged horse and it will only end in tears. + **Getting to Know You...** +Spend a decent amount of time chatting on messenger. It is an excellent way of building a fledgling friendship. Personally speaking, I can tell after fifteen minutes of talking to someone whether I will like him, or not. +Keep the conversation away from sex to start with -- unless you are doing the 'no strings fun' route. + _If you are a man, please take heed, women do not appreciate being asked in the first three sentences what their bra size is, and if they wax or shave..._ +Nor do we like you to say, ""I'm gonna switch my cam on now..."" Then, when the web cam comes on, we are treated to a full frontal of your erection. ""You make me horny babe..."" is really not a good enough reason. +Sorry guys, we don't want that just yet, thanks. We might be happy to play those games when we are having a relationship with you, but it's a little early to be having 'webcam fun' when we only spoke to you for the first time ten minutes ago. +Once you have built up a relationship online via messenger and email, the next step is a telephone conversation. Many people, especially women, will be wary of giving you their home telephone number. This is fair enough and you should never push for it. A mobile number is just as acceptable and texting is a good way of keeping in touch when you both work during the day. +However, be wary of the person who says it is not good to ring/text them in the evening and at weekends. This person is quite likely to be married or in a long-term relationship. +Once you have spoken on the phone and are not repulsed by their accent or voice, then it is time to contemplate a face-to-face meeting. +A first date should always be a low-key affair. The chances of any chemistry being present are fairly low. You should see it more as an opportunity to spend a pleasant evening chatting and getting to know someone rather than the beginning of a star-crossed romance. If you go along expecting flowers and fluffy bunnies, you will be disappointed. This is not to say that you _won't_ fall madly in love at first sight -- but it is highly unlikely. +Go to meet your _amour_ with a healthy dose of cynicism, and the disappointment will be less acute when they look nothing like their photo and their domineering mother has come along for the ride. +Always, ALWAYS arrange to meet in a public place and tell lots of people where you are going and who you are meeting. Personal safety is very important. After all, a wise person once said the only sure thing you know about someone you have met off the Internet, is that they have a computer too. + **The Date...** +Okay, you have arranged to meet the man or woman of your dreams. You have talked to them every night for weeks and exchanged millions of flirty emails. You know lots of interesting things about them; all you want to do is meet them now. You're excited and you think that this person is THE ONE! +Slow down... chances are they _won't_ be 'the one'. It's more likely that they will be one of many in your dating lifetime. However, they could be good for a short term fling, so stay hopeful. +It is a good plan to make the first date a fairly short one. Meeting for a coffee in the daytime is useful as it gives you a chance to finally see each other face to face without the pressure on you to spend hours with someone who you subsequently discover has a serious personal hygiene problem. +Arrange to meet for an agreed period of time. A couple of hours are more than enough initially. You will in all likelihood make up your mind within the first few seconds of contact about whether or not you fancy the person. If not, don't be too disappointed. Many good platonic friendships have developed from lukewarm dates. +At the very least they may have a skill that is useful to you, (and no, I wasn't referring to their oral sex technique). Dating can give you a whole new circle of friends who are more than happy to help you out in the future, assuming you remain civil with them. Friends last a lifetime - dates are usually short lived, so cultivate those useful contacts! +Treat dating as a networking opportunity and you will never lose out. + **What to wear...** +If you have been out of the dating scene for decades, it is a good idea to ask a close friend to give you a once over in order to check your look. Whilst you might think your electric blue suit and cowboy boots are a hot look, it is probably helpful if a tactful friend can enlighten you as to what's currently in fashion. Nobody wants to be seen dead with a fashion reject from the seventies. Your personality might well be wonderful, but if your dress sense is hideous, a date is unlikely to stick around long enough to find out that you are really an amazing catch! +Girls - wear something sexy, but understated. I tend to go for jeans on a first date. If a guy isn't interested in me when I have my jeans on, he's not going to change his mind when I wear a skirt, (even if I do have killer legs). The golden rule is not to dress too overtly sexy unless you are hoping to get laid on the first date. +Guys -- dress smartly, but casual, (unless of course you have booked tickets to see an Opera and it is black tie). Women like to see that a guy has made an effort, but we don't want you to out-shine us; it's rude! Nor do we want to seen with a tramp. + **Conversation...** +If you have spent a reasonable amount of time chatting prior to the date, you should already have plenty of conversation topics to talk about. If conversation falters, try and ask about holidays, families and other neutral topics, anything to keep things ticking over. + _One conversational topic to be avoided at all costs is the bitter and acrimonious split with your ex. Potential new partners do not want to hear about how you got shafted in the divorce courts and that you are never going to trust anyone else again. The past needs to be left right there -- in the past. If you still haven't managed to move on, you shouldn't be dating yet._ +Always pay attention to what the other person is saying and if you are a man, try to avoid staring at a girl's cleavage rather than her face. Yes, she may have the best DD's you have seen all year, but she's hardly going to be flattered when all you want to do is talk to them. +Try to avoid rambling on about your obscure hobbies unless you know she/he is truly interested. Listening to a boring monologue about video gaming and your collection of Japanese Samurai swords is hardly likely to endear you to the girl/man of your dreams. It is more likely to send them into a coma. +Ask lots of questions about the other person and LISTEN to their replies! Sounds simple doesn't it, but believe me, not everyone does this! +Take notice of your date's body language. If they are leaning towards you and hanging off every word you say, you have made a good impression. If on the other hand they are checking their watch every five minutes and also checking out the cute person at the next table, they are not interested at all. + **What happens next...** +If you have survived the date without having a drink thrown in your face and your companion did not head for the toilets half an hour ago, never to return; the question on your mind is -- where do we go from here? +The simple answer is, it depends on how you feel about the person and what your expectations are. +If you liked them and found them sexually attractive, you may already be deep in fantasyland with them tied to your bed moaning ecstatically. However, it is never a great idea to fuck someone on the first date. It's fine if that was your intention all along, but if you plan on making it a more long-term thing, it is far better not to rush things. + _There is a very good reason for this -- once sex is on the agenda, you tend to skip on the conversation. It's not nice to discover that the girl you've been fucking senseless for the last two months is up in court on Monday for attacking her ex with a shovel. Moral of the story, wait and get to know them first!_ +It is perfectly acceptable to try for a kiss should you fancy them and be fairly certain they are receptive to your charms in return. Keep it short and sweet until you are positive they are responding to you and not about to yell ""RAPE!"" +Always end the date on a good note and suggest date two if appropriate. If you have decided that they are not for you, be polite and let them know that you enjoyed it, but the chemistry was not there. + _(Or, if you are too chicken to tell them to their face, text them later)_ +Hopefully you will now be heading home full of enthusiasm for the whole dating experience, and not needing therapy to help you recover from the trauma. +Dating should be viewed as a hobby -- something to enjoy, but not to be taken too seriously. Dates can spot desperation a mile off and if you come across as too keen, they will disappear very fast in the opposite direction. +Play it cool and wait a couple of days before contacting the person again. Hopefully they felt the same way about you and are keen to see you again too. But don't be too crushed if they were not as interested as you. That's life I'm afraid. + **Worst Case Scenario...** +If it all went horribly wrong and you had the date from Hell, consider it a learning experience. Just pour yourself a large drink, sit back, and think how lucky you are that you will be able to amuse your friends for months with anecdotes of how your date bored you to death, and you were forced to climb out of the toilet window to escape... +Congratulations ~ you have survived the first date!" +513,How to Survive Survivor: Tracking Scores,SunrockSin,How To,2009-01-01,2009-01-01,2022-01-04 08:34:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-survive-survivor-tracking- scores,Scorekeeping in Literotica's year-long writing game.,['Writing Contest'],3.75,"The Survivor Contest is one of the more controversial aspects of Literotica with many writers vehemently opposing the contest, many others simply oblivious to it, many interested enough to give it a try and some so vested in the competition they will spend hours arguing over it in the forums. Of the many positive and negative aspects of the game, one of the most controversial has to do with the scorecards. +As each contestant enters the contest, they are sent a link where they can copy a scorecard into the forum and then edit it to keep their score. While the rules clearly state that this public display of the scorecard is up to the discretion of the individual contestant, many writers have proclaimed that not keeping the scorecard up to date and accurate is unethical or cheating. Odd comparisons of this contest to baseball games or football games, where scores are typically displayed throughout the contest, are presented as some basis for requiring the display of a contestant's scores. Of course other odd comparisons might cite how in many card games, the score is not displayed until the end of the game. +Strangely, it seems even the most vocal about the ethics of displaying the scores have during the course of their competition either fell behind for several months on the upkeep of their own scorecard or had major errors in the card greatly misrepresenting the actual score. Of course these lapses can be easily classified as simply errors or a too busy work schedule. Either way, if a contestant is interested in how they stand in the contest they really need an easy way to determine the correct score of their opponents. +While a contestant can go through the new stories and poems every day and track the submissions made by contestants a much more efficient way is to simply go to the contestant's page where all submissions are listed. For those who argue that a contest must have scores, the contestant's page provides the most up to date score available. Of course all a contestant's submissions to their user name are posted here, covering many years and making sense of all this information seems difficult. With this article, I offer a simple means of sorting a contestant's submissions and then using that information to determine their Survivor score. +All you need to complete this operation is a spreadsheet program. I use Microsoft's Excel and my instructions will be based upon this program, but using the same tools in a different spreadsheet program will also work. The first step is moving the submission information from the contestant's page to your spreadsheet. +To move this information, you will want to highlight and copy every story and poem listed on the page, including all information on each item (ie title, description, category and date of submission). Don't worry if some headers or other information gets copied, we will sort all that out of the spreadsheet. Once you have copied the information, open your spreadsheet and paste the information onto the sheet. +Immediately you will see a very messy spreadsheet with extra lines between stories and oddly shaped cells. To correct this you will need to highlight everything you copied, if it is not already highlighted, and right click on your mouse. When a menu drops down you will select format cells and when the menu changes select Alignment. When the alignment menu appears you will need to uncheck the box to the left of Wrap text and uncheck the box to the left of Merge cells. Click on okay and you will see your with consistent size cells, but the space between each entry will still be there. +Keep the area highlighted and now go up to your menu and click on Data. When the menu drops down you will click on sort and then go to the box titled Sort by and select the column that the dates are displayed in. You will then click on the button titled Descending and then click OK. Your spreadsheet will sort out all that excess space and sort the list of submissions in chronological order starting from the most current submission. +You will need to scroll down the spreadsheet until you reach the last of the submissions in the current year. Highlight all the information below the last submission of the current year and then either delete the information or remove the rows. Once this is completed you will need to highlight the current year's submissions, then go to the menu and click on Data. Once again you will click on sort, but this time you will enter the column containing the story categories in the Sort by box and then select the Ascending button. After you click the OK button, the submissions will be sorted alphabetically by category. +Once you are sorted by category you can count the submissions in each category and work out the score for the contestant. The scoring would be simplified if you create a scoring spreadsheet which will let you fill in the amount of submissions per category and will calculate all the points and bonuses. I would offer a How to article on building a scoring spreadsheet, but unfortunately with the proposed rule changes, the spreadsheet would be outdated about the same time this article gets posted. +Anyway, with the category count completed and the score tabulated or entered on your scoring spreadsheet, the only thing you will need to do is check on the immunities. You need to scroll through the immunities thread and see if the contestant won any immunities. +Now all this may seem like a lot of work, but if you save the submission listing for the contestant, the next time you run a check all you need to do is sort to the categories and track the changes. This will give you a current look at a contestant's scores. Of course the big question is how many stories does the contestant have pending, awaiting posting? The score you check today could change drastically if a handful of submissions appear from the contestant on the next day. * * * * * * + _Editor's Note: The Annual Literotica Survivor Writing Contest is a year-long competition open to anyone who likes to write.

Has everyone's over joyfulness just got you wanting to punch something? Are you gaining too much weight from all those holiday treats? Do you just plain hate Christmas and all its pretend goodness? +So how do we get through these tough times? Here are a few little tips that might make your spirits bright or have you laughing all the way! +Depressed? First thing you have to do is ask yourself why are you feeling so depressed. Is it the bills that you know are piling up from the endless presents you seem to have to buy? +If this is it then a simple way to fix this problem is make your gifts. Some people call it cheesy, or cheap but from my experience people love to get gifts from the heart. My wife and I karaoke all the time, it is one of our fun stress relieving things we do. I found a free program on the net that turned my computer into a recording studio so a couple of years ago we decided to give everyone a CD of us signing some of their favorite songs. It went over so well we now get requests at Christmas time. Now you might not have singing talent but we all have a talent. Maybe it is baking for you or painting or writing. Whatever it is you can make something personal for those people you wish to give gifts too. And liking the task cuts your stress in half and makes giving enjoyable. +Have the money but not the time to shop? +Make a list of the things you need to get then ask a friend who loves to shop to get them for you or hire a professional shopper. That lets you stay away from the headache of the crowds and you have also given someone employment for the day. +Feeling the goodies getting you? +Are you feeling your tummy bulging from all the snacks and foods that are always available as you go to all your relatives and friends? +Pace yourself, you don't need to eat everything in site. It isn't rude to refuse to eat something. If you don't want to seem rude by refusing food then just take smaller portions of everything. +Alone at Christmas and depressed? +You are not alone at all. Check your local papers, many cities have events for people just like you. You wouldn't believe how many people have no one to share the holidays with. Don't let it get you down. You want to make yourself feel better go to the local food bank and volunteer your services to help serve Christmas dinner to the homeless. You think you have it bad because you have nobody? After serving for an evening at a food bank you will realize your life is looking pretty good. Besides you always feel better knowing you have helped others less fortunate. +Another idea for getting rid of the loneliness, go to your local animal shelter and adopt a pet. Pets make great company and can cure the bluest of blues. +Just can't seem to get in the Christmas mood? +Pour yourself and eggnog and curl up on the couch and take in a classic Christmas tale. It's a Wonderful Life, Miracle of 34th Street, Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Frosty the Snowman, any version of A Christmas Carol or How the Grinch Stole Christmas are a few of my favorites. A special shout out to my favorite Christmas movie of all time The Man in the Santa Claus Suit, if you can get your hands on it. +I know this little How To won't solve all of your Christmas problems or headaches, I just hope it helped. I am not a doctor or profess to be some kind of genius these are just a couple of personal things I have done in the past when I am having a Blue Christmas... +Oh yea I almost forgot a couple of other things that might help you get out of the Christmas funk. +Sing some carols. Go to your local church for service and sing along with the choir as they belt out the classics. If you can't sing I recommend Elvis's Blue Christmas CD. Just something about the King and Christmas that puts me in the festive mood. +I hope one or more of my ideas work for you and that you and your loved ones have a blessed and happy holidays and a safe and prosperous new year. +Cheers +Dirtyjoe69" +515,How to Sweeten Up Your Cum,Decayed Angel,How To,2006-11-22,2006-11-22,2022-01-04 08:34:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-sweeten-up-your-cum,Some basic tips on varying the taste of your cum.,"['Blowjob Advice', 'Cum Taste Advice', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Sex Advice']",4.41,"In our writing and reading of erotica we come across a lot of differing descriptions of the flavor of cum, whether it is a man's semen or a woman's vaginal secretions. While some of the descriptions may vary depending upon a person's personal preferences, the sweet, tangy, tart, earthy, etc., etc. flavors used to describe the taste are often limited by the author's ability to truly grasp the words to describe a truly unique flavor. +Obviously, the taste of semen and vaginal secretions will vary from person and these tastes can vary from day to day in an individual depending upon a number of factors including what they eat. Since the taste all bodily secretions will vary depending upon what a person eats, certainly a person's cum will vary depending upon what they have eaten. +Eating certain foods will generally affect the taste of cum, however, this effect will vary in flavor and intensity from person to person. Generally, the following foods, beverages and habits will varying the taste of cum as indicated. +1.) Smoking cigarettes or marijuana and drinking alcohol will give the secretions a bitter taste. +2.) Eating red meats, asparagus, broccoli, spinach and some vitamins will give secretions a sharp or salty taste. The presence of sperm in the semen will also give the semen a sharper taste. +3.) Dairy products, such as milk and cheese will also give secretions a salty flavor. +4.) Eating only vegetables (except those from the cabbage family, ie: cauliflower, broccoli or asparagus) especially celery will give secretions a more mild flavor. The absence of sperm in the semen will make the taste more mild. +5.) Eating parsley, wheatgrass and celery have a high chlorophyll content which will make secretions sweeter. +6.) Spicing foods with cinnamon, cardamom, peppermint and lemon will also make secretions taste sweeter. +7.) Eating fruit, especially pineapple, papaya, cranberry, melons, mangos, apples and grapes also can sweeten the flavor of secretions. Their high sugar content can also offset the bitter tastes caused by smoking or drinking. +Some other things you can do to improver the flavor of your cum is to drink plenty of water, which washes toxins out of your body. As outlined above, eat plenty of vegetables and avoid red meats, instead get your protein from lean meats such as chicken and turkey. +Some people claim that fish can make cum taste bad, but research shows that this tends to vary from individual to individual. Before removing fish from your diet, you may want to tests its affects on the taste of your cum, since fish is a major part of a healthy diet. +Avoid junk foods since they are loaded with chemicals and preservatives, which can affect the taste of cum. There are also products available that claim to sweeten the taste of cum such as Semenex and others but there is not evidence these products work. Cum can be made to taste good by modifying your diet and lifestyle. Overall, a healthy diet had the biggest effect. +For women, diet does have an effect on the taste of their vaginal secretions, but the overall health and cleanliness of the vagina can have a greater effect. Generally a woman's vagina is on the acidic side, with a PH range of 3.8 to 4.5. Anything that offsets the PH balance of the vagina can significantly affect the health and therefore the taste of the vagina. Regular soap has PH ranges between 7.0 to 14 and can actually cause some infections. Excessive douching can also cause vaginal infections. +While women can also vary the taste of their cum through the diet tips mentioned above, the most important thing they can do for their taste is to keep the vagina healthy and happy with a PH range between 3.8 and 4.5. Especially strong tastes or odors can be signs of an infection and should be followed up. +So there you go, a way to sweeten up your cum or perhaps to simply vary the taste of your cum for a change of pace in your lovemaking. It all basically comes down to varying some of the food you eat and maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle. Bon Appetite! + **Bibliography** +1.)

Taking pictures of yourself with little or no clothing on can be even more fun! Yes indeed. You don't need to be an exhibitionist/aspiring porn star to like the thought of yourself captured on film like this. You also don't need to have the perfect body. I consider my own body to be no more than average, but still, the feedback I have received for my pictures so far has been overwhelming and positive. +There are many uses for erotic pictures of yourself. On the Literotica forums, for example, many people use avatars that show glimpses of them -- some less, some more explicit. There is also the amateur pics forum, where people often show off their assets. This experience can be quite liberating and help you see your body in a completely different light -- and I mean that in the most positive way. Also, if you are a writer, you might consider submitting in the illustrated stories or poems category. A nice, erotic picture in the right place might add lots to the story's intended atmosphere. +There are even more possibilities for those pictures outside of Literotica. Construct a sexy calendar as a Christmas gift for you S.O., for example. Surprise them with a sexy screensaver or send them an email including a nice pic when they can't be with you. Sounds like fun? Well then -- let's get started. + **Camera:** A digital camera is **strongly** recommended. This is for several reasons, the most important of which is that with a digital camera, it is easy to transfer the pictures from the camera to your computer. It is also cheaper, considering the amount of pictures you will probably take. You can see your picture on the screen right after you took it, which helps determine if the angle worked that you tried, or if there was a distraction in the picture that you weren't aware of before. Then you can try again right away. +I use a Canon Powershot A70. I have had this camera for several years, and it has always worked very well for me (I have dropped it on rocks and into the Scottish sea) + **Software:** A software that will allow you to view and alter your pictures is also a very good idea. For simple cropping, I use IrfanView, which is available as a free download on the internet. If you want to go fancier, you can invest in a program such as Photoshop. + **Setting:** Chose your background and lighting very carefully. A messy room in the background tends to distract from the picture and make it look less professional. A white wall can appear a bit clinical. A bed is often a nice setting, especially if it has fresh silk sheets, which will make you feel sexy as well. Artificial lighting can make you appear pale, especially if you are just using the regular lights of the room or the flash of your camera. I have taken my best pictures using the sunlight from my window, which works fantastically and I recommend it. If the sun is strong enough, the background (my messy room) appears completely black in the pictures and I don't have to worry about it. +However, don't kill your brain worrying about all of this too much. This is what we have all that software for! + **Props and Poses:** Simple, naked pictures can be very erotic and pretty. Often though, it is much sexier to get dressed up a little bit, or to show only small parts of your body and leave lots to the imagination. So if you don't feel comfortable showing all of your body, pick your favorite body part! It doesn't have to be anything obvious, like your breasts (although I have yet to figure out how any pair of breasts could not be sexy). You could pick your legs, neck, hands, feet, shoulders, hair... whatever you find pretty about yourself. Don't feel forced to show your face either, I never have and likely never will. +As an example, here is a picture of my belly: +Next, take your clothes off. Then get dressed up and/or accessorize! This can be a simple as a pretty pair of panties or your favorite lingerie. There are so many things that can add to a sexy picture, however. I've used a scarf, earrings, a collar and chain (why yes, I'm naughty), earrings, a plastic leaf, necklaces, bracelets and ice cream (you heard that right). Keep in mind which part of your body you are planning to photograph, of course. If you picked your legs, how about a cute pair of legwarmers or some high heels? Get creative! Rip an old shirt! Make sure it really is an old shirt though! There is probably a ton of stuff in your closet or dresser that you could use. As you can see below, I once used a bookmark, hanging it around my neck and letting it dangle between my breasts. + **Taking the Picture:** Finally, you are ready to get this show on the road. When it comes to snapping the actual picture, there are several possibilities. First of all, get a good friend or your S.O. to do it for you. This is easiest; although the bad part is that they may not understand how you want the picture to look. It may also be a little bit awkward to ask a friend for such a favor. On the bright side, doing this activity with your S.O. can be a lot of fun and may lead to sex, which is always good. +If you decide to take the pictures yourself, there are two options. One, get very friendly with your camera's self-timer. You will also very likely have to use a tripod. Two, hold the camera in your hand while you take the picture. Full-body shots are pretty much impossible with this technique, and the picture may end up blurry if you cannot hold the camera far enough away. You will also _have_ to crop your shots. I actually use this technique the most, and in the uncropped shot, you can clearly see how my arm is coming forward to hold the camera. +While taking the picture, don't be afraid to try out different angles and poses; after a few shots, look at the display to see how they look. It helps a lot if your camera has one of those displays that you can flip, so you can see yourself while you are taking the picture. If you don't, having a mirror behind the camera may help you figure out if you have it pointed the right way. This also gets a lot easier over time; with a bit of practice you will learn your angles quickly. +One important rule: Unless your memory card is tiny, you should not have to erase any pictures. And you really shouldn't erase them until you have seen them full size on the computer screen. Even if you don't like them on the display, remember that the full size pic may make some things look a bit different. I have definitely looked through my pictures on the display of the camera before and not found a single one I liked in a series. After I saw them on the computer, there were plenty. + **On the Computer:** After you're done taking pictures, transfer them to your computer of choice. I recommend a separate folder for your naughty pics, so they don't pop up in between the holiday pics you're showing your parents. I usually cut and paste the pictures I just took into my designated folder, where they are password protected. This is for several reasons, first of all so I remember which of the pictures I have already looked at, and second of all so they don't stay on the memory card. Those cards are portable devices that can fall into the wrong hands. Not a good thing! +Cropping comes next -- it is a must for me because of the above mentioned awkward arm holding the camera. When cropping, I usually pick a detail that the picture displays well. In this case, I like my shoulder, so this is the part I may actually use. Even when you want to use most of the picture, consider cropping it a bit in case there are distractions in the background. In IrfanView, you click and drag to select the area you would like to crop around, then chose ""crop selection"" from the Edit menu. +Literotica has size restrictions on their pictures, so you may have to do some resizing as well. Do this after you crop. Make sure the aspect ratio is preserved when you do this, otherwise you will end up with a distorted picture. A Literotica avatar can only be 150 x 150 pixels big. When submitting an illustrated story, the pictures can be no wider than 320 pixels and no higher than 240 pixels. Again, in IrfanView this works by selecting ""Resize/Resample"" from the Image menu. +Depending on what kind of software you use, there is much more you can do with your picture. Many softwares allow you to lighten or darken areas, play with color schemes, convert the picture to black and white (which often looks very classy) and much more. I encourage you to try out all the features that are available to you. +In the end, remember to have fun with it. Don't worry if your pictures don't turn out quite like you imagined in the beginning -- you will soon figure out what colors, angles and lighting flatter you. Experiment and remember that you have full control over the pictures. Anything you really don't like can be deleted right away; and anything you love will surely be admired." +517,How To Talk Dirty To Me,secretdesires69,How To,2013-07-17,2013-07-17,2022-01-04 08:34:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-talk-dirty-to-me,A letter to my Master.,"['Angel', 'Dirty Talk', 'Fantasy', 'Fsub', 'Letter', 'Mdom', 'Missionary', 'Submissive']",4.35,"_For my first post, I want to share a letter I wrote to my Master.

One who loves me and will do anything to make me happy. You agreed to my request the day I made it, under one condition- I must be honest with you. Now I'm holding up my end of the bargain: +As we break new ground together, I'm finding out new and surprising things about myself. You have done a great job of opening yourself to me and letting me see a different side of you. This is what has been in the front of my mind for a while now and, since it's so simple, I thought maybe you could try it. I guess I'll find out if you decide to take up this naughty habit! +Dirty talk is extremely powerful. Even more so than you can imagine. Using your ""master voice"" and saying the things I imagine you say at the right moments would make me cum harder than you can imagine. +The book I read explains that dirty talk should be used by a man to lead his woman's mind to climax, seeing as women require much more mental stimulation than men. +""If your voice is to lead her mind, it needs a deep, resonant tonality. A relaxing, commanding, and deep voice lubricates your words and allows them to slip right into her mind without struggle."" - Sean Bapier +That's the tone of voice I want to hear - your ""mater voice."" It's deep and manly and never fails to make me quiver. You've done this before without realizing it. I, however, am very aware when something clicks inside you and your voice deepens, becoming liquid lust. It evokes in me the immediate urge to bare my neck and submit to you, no matter where we are. Sounds fun, doesn't it? Learn to use that voice, combined with some specific words and phrases you may definitely choose to expound upon, and you could EASILY condition me to instantly want you and to please you in any way. +Although that book was extremely helpful, and made me wet to read some of the examples, it is of course not tailored specifically to us. After you tried fulfilling one of my fantasies recently, I thought about it in greater detail and asked myself what it is, exactly, about my fantasy that differed from reality? The answer is simple words and actions. Hopefully this will give you a better idea of how to use your dirty talk to turn me on and push me over the edge with your voice. Just remember to use your ""master voice."" It makes me submit. ;) +In this specific fantasy, we're in missionary position and my clit is grinding against the manly hair on your body while you fuck me with all you've got. (Any way you fuck me is amazing, Sir, but you know I like it hard.) +I can feel your breath and your hot tongue on my neck. I'm holding you close to me, whimpering as I get closer to cumming all over your hard cock, like I love to do! The weight of your body on mine makes me feel good - taken, plundered, dominated, owned... safe. +You hadn't spoken much all night until I'm just about to cum. When the moment is right, you hold my throat, not squeezing but more to hold me down firmly as a symbol of ownership, and use your master voice to talk to me softly. +""They came to see you, Angel. Everyone's here watching you. They see what a slut you are. I told them you love when I fuck you deep; how you beg me to fuck you harder in that wet cunt of yours. I told them you scream when you cum. Be a good slut and cum for your master. Cum for me, Angel. I wanna feel your pussy squeeze my cock. I want them to see how beautiful you are when you cum."" +Once you've got a steady stream of filth going, you notice I'm edging closer to release. I am intently focused on your voice and the warmth that spreads through me when you say key words. A shiver runs through my body leaving my legs shaking and a proud smile on your face. You deepen your voice even more and push it further. +""Or maybe I should tie you down and spread your legs wide so they can see how wet you are. You like when they watch you, don't you, Angel? You want me to show them your pussy? Then I could have them hold your tight pussy open for me while I lick you up and down. What if I let them push their fingers inside you? How many would you want, slut? Two? No, I know my slut would want to be stretched out more than that. You want three fingers inside you, don't you, slut?"" +I try to delay my orgasm so I can listen to you longer. I love what you say to me in that voice, but you grab my hair at the base of my skull and pull my head back slightly while you say one more thing in a whisper I can't resist! +""Your pussy is mine. Cum for me now, baby."" +That does it. I squeeze my eyes shut and scream ""Yes, Master!"" as my body stiffens and shudders. My pussy massages your cock and you let go inside me. You ride me hard until my legs relax and my arms go limp. We stretch out on a cloud of bliss and float there happily until sleep claims us both. +Hopefully, that gives you a better idea what I'm looking for from you. You don't have to dress up like a pirate or a bull fighter or something, but put on a suit, take me out to dinner and say things like this to me, and I'll be putty in your hands all night!

However, I’ve received some of the most wonderful, kindest feedback that a writer could ever ask for, and I’m grateful. +One thing I’ve been asked to write about – very often – is talking dirty. The kind of erotic talk that heats things up in bed – on the floor, over the kitchen sink – wherever. +I do understand the fascination with it. Hearing is of course one the five senses, and along with sight, touch, smell and taste, can add to the excitement and enjoyment of having sex. If you’re into it, dirty talk – and mind you I don’t think it’s dirty at all – can make good sex better, and great sex down right memorable. +In the classic porn film, ""Talk Dirty To Me,"" starring the incomparable John Leslie, his dirty talk drives women absolutely wild.

Does it _really_ work this way? With the right people and done properly, I believe it can. So read on. +First, I need to point out that although I’ve had my share of experience, I don’t hold myself out as an ‘expert.’ Then again, is there a degree one can get for dirty erotic talk? I haven’t seen it in any of the adult evening classes at the local college. Like anyone else, my experience has been through personal trial and error, reading and hearing an awful lot of suggestions from literotica readers and sexual addicts such as myself and being a devout student of erotic human behavior. So I guess, in a sense, I’m as much of an expert as anyone else. +By the way, you’ll notice I call it dirty ‘erotic’ talk. In the future I’ll just try and shorten it to dirty talk. It’s just that here in NJ, you hear dirty talk on the radio, at the deli, and especially in traffic, along with dirty gestures. None of it is erotic. At least I don’t think it’s _supposed_ to be, unless ""that was _my_ parking spot, you motherfucker"" turns you on. +Before we get started, a quick mission statement. Why this article? Done right, talking dirty to your lover can be a powerful aphrodisiac. It can bring out hidden desires and fantasies in both men and women. It can be hot – oh man, you have no idea how hot – and add an aspect to sex that kicks it up several notches. I promise. The rules are, there are no rules. But I have some suggestions and observations that can get you on the right track and get you going. After that, it’s up to you my friends. You don’t want me there as a coach… +What is dirty talk anyway? What is considered dirty? Is it, ""mmm, that feels so good,"" or ""get on your knees and suck my cock you whore."" The answer is – both, depending on who’s talking and who’s listening. One person’s dirty is another’s mild. To yet another person, it’s downright perverted and filthy. This is important to keep in mind. +On one end of the spectrum, you have sex so silent that it could qualify for a covert operation behind enemy lines. I think there are some concrete reasons for this speechless sex. A) Either one or both of the parties feels uncomfortable or embarrassed about sex. B) Either one or both of the parties feels uncomfortable or embarrassed about any talking during sex because of upbringing, religious beliefs or what have you. C) There is a high level of inexperience. D) Nobody knows what to say or how to get started. +The remarkable thing about it, which always perplexes me, it that some of these men whose mouths are sewn shut during sex won’t stop talking during a sporting event. Their excitement is overwhelming. They yell, scream and jump up and down when a touchdown is scored or a home run hit. And some of the women just won’t get off the phone with their friends and family. But get them in bed – wham – you shut them right up. The middle ground would consist of some moaning and groaning, perhaps a little, ""yes"" or ""that feels good"" here and there. These people clearly enjoy sex, and may benefit from this article the most, but don’t want to or know how to take it to the next level. +The other end of the spectrum, God bless it, is when the lady expresses herself in a dignified manner such as, ""I want to suck your cock like a ten dollar whore,"" and the man replies ""That’s right, baby, I want to taste the juices flowing from your cunt."" It’s hot, tasty, salty sex. My favorite kind, I’d like to add! +Any or all of these variations are fine, as long as the people involved are satisfied. And if you want to get on this train, if you’ve been looking for a way to add that extra ingredient to augment your sex life, read on. +Dodger’s manager Tommy Lasorda was once asked, ""Did you ever think in your wildest dreams that you’d be in the World Series?"" and replied ""My wildest dreams have nothing to do with baseball."" Well put. +The point is that if your girl asks you to ""talk dirty"" to them and you say, ""Fuck me hard and long, I want to cum on your face, you slut,"" she may _freak_ because what she expected to hear was ""I can’t wait to be inside you."" If she says ""suck my cunt lips until I scream your name, I want to be your cock whore,"" he may be shocked, because to _him_ , dirty is, ""Do me, honey."" In either case, expectation is far from reality and may be embarrassing enough to prevent either one from ever trying to talk dirty again. +Obviously, it would be better to have some idea of what the other person would like to hear before you say ""I’m gonna spank your nasty ass ‘til you squeal like a pig"" to a monastery candidate. Before you begin to talk dirty to your lover, ask yourself, what kind of a person are they? Are they easily offended by harsh language or do they swear like a truck driver (no offense)? Do they appear to be open minded in other ways, about oral sex or different positions for example? How do they like their sex? Fast, furious and balls to the walls, or slow and tender? This can at least give you some kind of gauge where to start experimenting. + _Warning_ \- do not judge a book by its cover. I’ve known some girls who were demure and seemingly innocent at work or school. But once the passions of desire had been stoked – they played with live ammo - pass the Vaseline, duct tape and batteries, we’re having a party! +If your adventures in talking dirty start with your lover asking you to do it, ask them what they have in mind, what they’d like you to say. If this is too embarrassing for them, ask them to write it down. I’ve always been more comfortable writing than saying it, too. I once knew a girl, wonder where she is now, who would leave me little notes in private places telling me what she wanted to do to me. It was a different kind of dirty talk, sure, but it got me fired up all right. More on that later. +You can always start out slow. No one expects to go from silence to waking the neighbors with your screams in just one night. It would seem too labored, too artificial as well. I believe it would be more natural to begin with light fare, such as ""yeah, that feels _really_ good."" One of my absolute favorites is the simple, elegant and unfailingly hot, ""Oh God."" You don’t get an ""Oh God"" unless your doing really well. Maybe an ""Oh,"" possibly an ""Oh my,"" but when you get a nod the to Big Guy, you’re on the right track. +Once you start out slow and comfortable, see how that goes, where it takes you, and decide to move on or not. If you are the instigator, it usually follows that you begin the dirty talk, and your lover gets the idea. If they don’t, try asking them questions which will prompt a response, such as ""How does that feel baby, is that good?"" Or, ""Do you like it when I do that?"" Again, if you like the idea of dirty talk and want to make it a regular part of your sexual behavior, it’s far better to start slow, even though you may want to blurt out, ""Your cock is so big I feel like I’m being fucked by a horse,"" which I don’t hear often enough for some strange reason beyond my comprehension,"" or even, ""spread those ass cheeks wide, doctor enema is coming in for a landing."" Outrageously dirty talk is wild fun, and can spice the hell out of a sexual liaison, but it can truly turn off the uninitiated, so be cautious at first. +Which brings me to another very important issue. What you do in the bedroom _stays_ in the bedroom. It may be OK for you to call her ‘your slut whore’ when you’re fucking, or for her to call you her daddy (oh baby!), but not back I the real world. You do _that_ and you’ll spoil your bedroom fun in the long run. Unless your lover likes it, leave it in bed. She may want to be treated like a naughty little girl who likes to be punished in bed, tied up, blindfolded, whip out the vibrator and…don’t get me started, but you should separate fantasy from reality. +Just to clarify a little further though, when I say keep it in bed, I mean keep it in the _context_ of sexual situations. I once had a girlfriend who would write little notes on cocktail napkins when we were out to a fancy dinner, ""When I get you home I’m going to suck your cock until you cum in my mouth."" Waiter? Check please! A buddy of mine leaves explicit letters to his wife, and calls her during the day to tell her where they are. By the time he gets home she’s ready to rock the Casbah. I know a young lady, and she knows who she is, who with one sentence on the computer keyboard can put a lump in my throat and my pants. I can’t see her face or hear her voice on the internet, but her desire comes through loud and clear. Yours can, too. +But I repeat, you can call her during the day and say ""I miss my sweet little whore,"" or she can tell you she ""longs for her guy’s meaty cock down her throat,"" when you’re away on business and it’s all great fun and in the right spirit of sexuality and desire. Just keep in that way and in perspective. It definitely doesn’t have to be restricted to the bedroom, but there is still a time and place. +This also means of course that your lover knows you mean no disrespect in what you say or write. You may call her ‘your cum sucking cock hound’, but that’s only in the realm of sexual fun and fantasy. She probably doesn’t want you to think of her as a whore in the real world, so let her or him know you understand the difference. +I think it also should be said that dirty talk, like any other delicacy, can get old fast is overused. I love a good steak, but not every night or I’ll get sick of it. If you talk dirty and take it to the limit every time, it’ll lose its erotic value, which would be a shame. Perhaps its best to save it for those times when sex is the menu for the evening, instead of a quick appetizer or late night dessert. +OK, are you almost ready to get started? Great. Do keep one last thing in mind before we summarize. Tone of voice is all-important. Think of Minnie Mouse bellowing ""Fuck me with your huge little mouse cock, Mickey!"" in her squeaky little cartoon voice. Does that turn you on? If so, you may be related to Walt Disney. +You can’t use your daily student, motherly or business meeting voice. It may sound like you’re giving instructions. ""Now stick that big cock or yours in me. You ready to cum? Good, then cum, I’ve got errands to do."" +In your sexiest voice, shaking with desire and passion, say something like, ""mmm…your cock feels so good inside of me…so warm…you making me…you’re gonna make me cum so hard…so hard, baby…"" Or if you’re a guy, in your lowest, most measured tones it may be ""Oh baby, you’re so beautiful…I just love to fuck you…to have my cock inside of you…I love to watch your face when it’s full of my cock…I’m so hard for you…"" Whatever the words. Whispered in her ear, they’re magic. +And unless you are in fact whispering in your lover’s ear, the best way to talk dirty to them is when looking into their eyes. The hottest, most erotic words will have little effect if you look away to say them, as though you’re shy or embarrassed about it. If you practically mumble them to the floor, you may not even be heard. Speak up – we’re all friends here! Look your lover in the eyes and tell them you love what they’re doing, or what you’re dying to do to them or have them do to you. Don’t be timid, be proud! Speak it, shout it, whisper it, but let them see and hear you. Can you imagine how hot it is when your lady’s face is near your cock as she looks up at you and says in her sexiest voice, ""mmmm…I just love your cock…I’m gonna rub it all over my face and then tickle my tonsils with it…I’m gonna suck your cock until you beg me to let you cum…"" This has _got to_ add another inch to that erection! Two if she’s rubbing her tits all over it while she’s talking…there I go again. +OK now, before we adjourn for some practice of our own, let me suggest that you do indeed practice on your own, at least at first. The greatest speakers rehearse. You _do_ want to know what you’re going to sound like, even to yourself. So say some erotic lines out loud a few times. Adjust your tone, your pace. Just say it a few times until it sounds good to you, this isn’t Broadway. It will alleviate some of the jitters of trying something new. And to me that’s what good sex is all about, trying something new. +I can practically hear some of you saying, ""OK fine, I get the picture, but what do I say, what are the _actual_ words."" And no, I can’t send you a recording. But let’s look at it this way. Even taco sauce comes in mild, medium and spicy, right? Sometimes you might feel like mild or medium, sometimes you want some hot spice. It’s the same with dirty erotic talk. + _Mild_ would probably phrases like, ""mmm…that’s nice,"" ""feels so good,"" ""yes…yes, right there,"" ""Oh God, baby…yes,"" ""I can’t wait to taste you,"" ""I love what you’re doing to me…I love how it feels…I’ve been wanting you all day…"" ""Let’s make love until the sun comes up…"" You get the picture, mix and match as you like. These are erotic words that should not have the beginner choking on them. +Once you get used to the mild sauce, or saucy comments, you may want to get a bit more _creative._ ""I love how your cock feels inside of me,"" ""Your pussy is so wet…I love how my cock feels inside of you,"" ""Your juices taste so good,"" ""Your body is so beautiful… oh my God, I can’t wait to taste every inch of you,"" ""I love these breasts, I want to lick and suck them so hard…"" ""Wrap your legs around me, I want every inch of me inside of you,"" ""I’m gonna suck your cock now baby…hold in tight,"" +Let me just start breathing normally again for a minute. There. Now, you want spice? You want to bring it home to papa? Those who _really_ like the salty stuff probably don’t need _my_ suggestions. But hey, _I’m_ the writer here, indulge me. +When you graduate to, ""Spread those cunt lips my sweet little whore, I’m gonna slam you like Hulk Hogan,"" ""I’m gonna suck your cock until every last drop of cum fills my mouth,"" ""Don’t you _dare_ cum until I give you permission,"" ""Suck my cock you little whore,"" ""Can’t you fuck any harder than that? – be a man!"" ""I want to taste your seed…cum on my face,"" ""Bend over baby…you’ve been a bad girl and it’s time for your ass to pay…"" now you _know_ you don’t need my words. God, I do wish I could be there! How about sending _me_ a tape? +My friends, I mean it when I say that some girls, and guys, are so aroused by dirty talk – often to their surprise – they can’t believe it themselves. Imagine a girl who is the definition of proper at work, in the kitchen, at the gym, in church – whatever, but in the bedroom she likes to be called a ‘whore’ and have her ‘cunt fucked hard by you’. Or the conservative business dude who likes to tell her to ‘suck my cock like an ice cream cone until I tell you to stop.’ It can be so very hot, and you may not even know this vista of opportunity exists until you try it at least on some level. I sincerely hope you do. +I wish you good luck, good health and good sex. No matter what your age or sexual preference, live a passionate life and keep the spirit alive. +I’d love to hear your feedback. It means a great deal to me, and I learn a lot from it. If you liked the article, please take a moment to comment. If you didn’t, oh well to each his own, I hope you’ll like someone else’s better. Peace." +519,How to Talk Dirty to Your Man,heellicker,How To,2007-09-09,2007-09-09,2022-01-04 08:34:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-talk-dirty-to-your-man,"He's asked you to talk dirty, but you don't know how.","['Dirty Talk', 'Potty Mouth', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",4.02,"So your partner has asked you to talk dirty him. You may think of yourself as kinky and that you have a dirty mind but when you try to talk dirty the words just don't come to you. If nasty talk doesn't come naturally to you then this how-to is for you. +Keep in mind is that he is a guy, his mind is dirtier than yours. Do you want to know what is inside that skull of his? A cesspool, that's what's inside. All you need to learn is how to send ripples through it. +1) Remember, he is the one that asked you to talk dirty. He has no complaints if you talk too dirty. Besides, the chances of you talking too dirty for him are slim. Don't hold back. +2) When you do talk dirty for him you are being a sexual object. Men are pigs. We have been programmed since birth to objectify women. That does not mean we do not love our spouses, girl friends, significant others, or whatever we call our partners. It means we have a sexual object that we fantasize about and at times we fantasize about the woman in our lives as being that sexual object. Are you willing to be a sexual object? Maybe it is something the two of you can discuss. Perhaps the two of you can discuss ground rules. Make sure you both know it is just a fantasy. You can always set a night for candlelight and soft music and then a night for talking to him like he was the pig that he is. +3) Dirty talk is spice. Too much can spoil the meal. Sprinkle those nasty words over the course of the evening. There is nothing like a good tease. Collect a repertoire of stock phrases. They don't have to be original. You are talking to cesspool after all. Use those phrases to set him up for the shocker. Use phrases that seem natural to you, but phrases using words like pussy, cock, and dick. 'I want you inside me' doesn't cut it. 'Fuck me with that dick' is better. Read stories on literotica. If you come across a phrase you like write it down. If you are comfortable doing so, watch some porn movies when your partner is not around and takes notes. You don't particularly have to like porn movies. You are just doing homework. If you don't want to see what is happening on the screen don't look. Just listen. If you do like porn get the vibrator out and have some me time. +4) Make sure you have a shocker. What is a shocker? A shocker is that really dirty, nasty, and disgusting phrase that closes the deal. It is the phrase that will have him wrapped around your finger. The good thing about a shocker is that is does not have to be spontaneous. In fact, during the time you are earning your potty mouth it is best not to be spontaneous. The best shockers in the beginning are planned. You have all the time in the world to come up with a shocker. Before your night of dirty talk sit down with a pen and notebook and figure out what your shocker is going to be. Now is the time to get that dirty mind of yours to work. Think of a theme for your shocker. Are you the sweet little girl, the slut, the evil bitch or do you have something even more devious in mind. Get in the mindset that you are playing a character. Get yourself into the role. Start trying to objectifying things. It is not ""his"" dick, but ""that"" dick. It is just an object. It is not ""your"" pussy, but ""that"" pussy or better yet ""that"" hole. Objectifying is not a rule it is just something to just keep in mind. Think about whether it fits your theme or situation. Finally the best shockers have a hint of the taboo in them. Referring to yourself as mommy or call him a slut (yes, I said him). The goal is to send him over the edge. You may be saying to yourself that you couldn't say something like that to him. What if it would freaks him out. I could only answer that by saying that he wasn't just asking you to talk dirty to him. He was asking you to fuck his mind. +5) Make sure to deliver the shocker properly. After all your work you wouldn't want the shocker to get lost unnoticed between ""Oh, yeah fuck that pussy"" and ""and fuck me faster"". Pace things. Set the scene, stop or slow things down if you need to, and make sure he is looking into your eyes when you are ready. Now deliver the shocker. +""You motherfucker. You've turned me into slut haven't you?"" +Of course replace this shocker with your own. Make it as nasty you want it to be. +6) Once you've gone through talking dirty a time or two throw this how-to away and do what comes naturally. Now you are really ready to use that dirty mouth of yours." +520,How To Tell If You Are Winning?,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-07,2008-05-07,2022-01-04 08:34:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-tell-if-you-are-winning,Think of life as a game. Are you winning or are you losing?,"['Game', 'Health', 'Heaven And Hell', 'Life', 'Longevity', 'Losing', 'Marathon', 'Money', 'Wealth', 'Winning']",4.0,"Think of life as a game. Are you winning or are you losing? What's the score? Are you ahead in the game or behind? How can you even tell what the score is if you don't even know the rules? +Well, maybe after reading this, How To Tell If You Are Winning Or Losing, this story will help shed some light to make you determine if you are winning or losing in the game of life. +If you are ahead, who is it you are competing against? Think about it. Who is your competition? Are you playing against all others or just yourself? +If you are behind, will you ever catch up? Does it matter if you do or if you don't? Does it matter if you just don't care? +Do you even know what the prize is if you win? Do you care? I know, like me, you just want to play the game and if you die...fade to black...game over. Is that all there is? +Or is it game over when you die. Do we live in another parallel dimension as some scientists now believe? That was one of Einstein theories so long ago. Can you imagine being that smart to think of that back then? I can't imagine. He saw things we are still trying to figure out and to prove or disprove. +What do you think? Is it game over when we die? We don't know. No one knows. Those who have died have not returned to tell us. +I hope it isn't over. It'd be nice if we all went to Heaven or even to Hell. At least, wherever we were, we'd continue the game. +There are different yet obvious ways for people to determine if they are winning in their game of life. There are those who believe that if they have food to eat and a place to sleep, then are happy and, in essence, they are winning. I feed the homeless one day a week, Sundays, and I see the joy that I bring to them by dishing them out a plate of food. Only, they don't realize that they give me so much more than I can possibly give back to them just by offering them my time and my money. +1\. Money. Too many feel that without money you are a loser. Conversely, too many feel that with money you are a winner. What do you think? +With the premise of believing that having more money will make you a winner, think of all the winners who had lots of money and who are no longer here to enjoy their victory and their money. When you think about it, they were losers. Much like Elton John's ""candle in the wind,"" many celebrities who died of drug overdoses come to mind. +2\. Longevity. If you live to be 100-years-old, does that make you a winner or does that make you the same person you were before only older, a lot older. Yeah, it would suck to die in childbirth or at a young age without ever having a chance at life. Still, I don't think of those people as losers. I just think of them as dead. +Still, would you want to live that long to one hundred if you were unhealthy? Would you want to outlive all your friends and relatives? +I've known people who have died at a young age who have lived more life than I can live in two lifetimes. Conversely, I have known elderly people who have died kicking and screaming and who didn't want to let go. That's sad. +3\. Happiness. Surely, if you are happy, irregardless of your economic standings and/or age, you are a winner. Right? Definitely, I'd rather be happy than rich and happy than old. Yet, if I had a choice, I'd rather be young, rich, and happy. Only, those options don't appear on anyone's menu at the drive up window of life. +""Give me an order of youth and wealth with a side of happiness, please."" +""Do you want fries with that?"" +4\. Health. You'd be a winner if you were healthy. Just ask Lance Armstrong. He was at death's door without hope. Now, look at him. He's an inspiration to us all. I sometimes wear his wristband to motivate me to do more. He ran the Boston Marathon this year. My daughter, one of the race officials, took his photo. +I'm healthy have always been healthy. Jack LaLanne and Arnold Schwarzenegger are my idols. Both are healthy, but in different ways. I exercise and watch what I eat. Yet, I have too many friends who drink, smoke, overeat and drive to the corner mailbox instead of walking. +Then, again, there are lots of unhealthy people. As we all know, you don't have to be elderly to be unhealthy. Just look around you. Some people never had a chance to enjoy the gift of health. +Many years ago, I was privileged to make the acquaintance of a young woman in a wheelchair. She had a fatal, muscular disease and her body never fully developed, but her mind did. She graduated from Emerson College, a great school on Beacon Street in Boston, Massachusetts, and everyone was so proud of her accomplishment, only she died shortly thereafter. So sad to be that smart, that focused, that determined, and yet so unhealthy. +Was she a winner or a loser? What's your take on that? If you asked her, she'd say she was a winner. I'd say she was a winner, too. Even though she faced so many odds to fail and even though she was keenly aware of the inevitable, she inspired me, as well as others, to persevere and I'm a better person for meeting her. +I went to school with a girl who was smart and pretty. She was even a great singer. She sang at all the school recitals. She was a great person, too, and everyone who knew her loved her. Just out of college, she died of a brain hemorrhage while honeymooning in Bermuda at the age of 22-years-old. +Just as you never know when it's your turn to go, there's nothing fair about life. Are you ready to die? What haven't you done that you would do now if you knew you were going to die? +Me? I'd apologize for all my bad thoughts, bad deeds, and for lending too much time and importance to nonsense and not concentrating on the things that are important. What's important to you? +5\. Brains. Look at Professor Stephen Hawkings, mister Black Hole himself. He's wicked smart, a genius. Only, he has ALS disease and is confined to a wheelchair. Would you rather be him than you? Would you want to be that smart, yet so unhealthy? What's your threshold for a tradeoff, such as that, big brains for poor health? +There are those who think that you are a winner if you have more brains than the next guy. Well, I'm here to tell you that brains and commonsense don't always go hand in hand. I know lots of smart people who lacked commonsense and are dead and lots of not so smart people with an abundance of commonsense that are still alive, vice versa, too. +Yeah, being smart is important. For me, brains are attractive. I have lots of smart friends and tend to surround myself with smart people. Only, I wouldn't want to be too smart, just smart enough. How smart is smart enough and how smart is too smart? +My girlfriend is wicked smart. First of all, she's with me. Now, that's smart. Seriously, she has an IQ of 163. She's smarter than I am. I call her Spock from Star Trek fame because she is more logical than she is emotional. +Only, what she has over me in brain power, she lacks in commonsense. I mean, I'm no dummy and when tested my IQ was 127, better than the average of 95 to 105, but certainly it pails in comparison to my girlfriend's brains. Yet, sometimes, she says and does some pretty dumb things for someone who is so smart. +Her friend, Michelle, is equally as smart. A college professor in statistical math or physics or whatever it is that is beyond my scope of comprehension, you don't want to be in the same room when these two geniuses are talking about math and logic. Thank God the Red Sox and Celtic games are televised. +Yet, I have street smarts. I grew up as a tough city kid who turned his life around. I've seen some things. You'd have to go a long way to pull the wool over my eyes, although I did buy that piece of swamp property in Florida. It is close to Disney World, though, and solid enough for a lawn chair. Hey, I'm happy. +6\. Relationships. Some people feel that if they are surrounded by those who love them and those who they love, they are blessed. Of course, having friends is an important part of that, which is why those movies The Wizard of Oz with Judy Garland and It's A Wonderful Life with Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed, are so hugely popular even after all these years. +Mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, grandmothers, grandfathers, and in-laws, family holds us together. It's nice sitting around the table during the holidays reminiscing about how things were back then. Then, again, it is fun writing all those incest stories, too, but that's another topic altogether. +7\. Is God the answer? I've never met an unhappy or an unfulfilled monk, have you? Yet, it'd be hard for me to perceive my life as full by sitting alone on a mountaintop all day contemplating the life that I wasn't living. I could never hide myself away in a monastery. I much equate their life to prison. Yet, I'd be wrong to believe their rejection of my life is their prison. If I had to walk in their shoes and if I switched my life with theirs, it may open my eyes to new possibilities. Conceivably, I'd look good sporting a beard, wearing a long robe, and walking in sandals. +""Peace be with you, my Son."" +Yet, to each their own, which is what life is all about. +8\. Children. My daughters are my life. I can't imagine my life without them in it. And I hope to God that they survive me. I never want to see any harm come to them. +I once knew a man who lost his 8-year-old daughter. How awful. I can't imagine what he felt and my heart went out to him, so much so that I helped him start a foundation in her name. She was truly beautiful inside and out. If there is any truth to the truism that the good die young, then God took a good one when he took her. +So, however you measure your life's successes or defeats, just the fact that we are all still here playing the game says a lot. We all need to live a part of our life as if today is our last day, because it could very well be that. +I think of those who never had the chance to play. I think of those who weren't given all that I was given. Then, I think of someone like Bill Gates who has the curse of all that money, that poor man.

The paid ones are often on-site areas for meet and greet groups or sources of income for the sponsors. If you choose to attend those parties, know that your opportunities for involvement are minimal if you do not know anyone else there or if you are not extremely gregarious. The odds of having a really good time are no better than attending an on- premise swing club; in fact they are probably worse. +My experience has been that many who attend such parties without benefit of having friends there, either end up playing alone or just being voyeurs, which mainly is a waste of money, unless you really are a voyeur, and don't mind paying to watch. +The private house party has the potential for having more fun and I will suggest ways for making that type of party a successful event. I have been to many that really never got off because of lack of foresight of the hosts. In this offering, I will suggest a list of things to address in an effort to increase the possibility that you and your guests will have a good party. +PRE-ARRIVAL PROTOCOL +First as host you must decide on the maximum number of people that you intend to invite. If your home is not a mega mansion and is about the size of an average four bedroom house, limit your invitees to no more than five or six couples. Ten to twelve people is about the maximum that such a house can hold comfortably and allow the hosts to keep tabs on what is going on as well as trying to ensure that everyone gets involved and has a good time. +Second, as you choose your guests, make sure that you let all of them know the other guests who will be invited. Suggest that they pull up the profiles of all of the other guests on any sites that you know them to be on and take a look before they accept your invitation. As a host, just because you have no problem swinging with African descended, Asian, East Indian, Hispanic or even physically disabled individuals does not mean that other people with whom you swing, feel the same way. It might be that they have no problem swinging with you but they do with individuals from other groups, so they should know that before they accept your invitation. Chemistry is extremely important and this could ruin your party. +Third, try to select individuals who are warm and gregarious and with personalities that are easy to get along with as the right mix of individuals is extremely important. +Fourth, once you have selected your guests, how you plan and execute the party could very well determine its success or failure. Let the guests know early if they should bring a plate and if so, know what it is so that you can plan a menu of sorts, so that everyone doesn't bring the same thing. Let them know if they should bring their own libation or if you as a host are going to provide everything. +Fifth, give your guests a cut-of time for arriving, along with parking instructions and dress before entering your home and rules for the neighbors. You don't necessarily want your neighbors to know what is going on in your house! Let guests know if nudity is reserved for certain areas or floors of the house and suggest that they do not sit nude on the furniture. You do not want your sofas and chairs stained with personal exudate! +Sixth, be sure to share instructions for cleaning after playing, including locations of bathrooms and information with regard to the location of condoms and other personal use items and their disposal. If locations in your home are off limits to your guests, make those areas known as well upon their arrival. +ARRIVAL PROTOCOL +When your guests start to arrive, you should be ready to receive them. Wear something suggestive but not too risqué as they enter because you may be seen by your neighbors! Show your guests where to place the dishes and libation that they bring and have someone there to arrange the food on the tables and bar. As the guests arrive they can serve themselves and gather in a central area until the doors are closed. Once all guests have arrived I suggest the following things be done. +1\. Review some of the aforementioned items, such as play room and bathroom locations, being covered before sitting, disposal of condoms, personal items and the like. Smoking or non-smoking should also be addressed as well as drinking. You do not want your guests to leave inebriated as they could become involved in an accident and you may be held liable for allowing them to leave your home impaired. +2\. With all gathered in the same room, welcome your guests, alluding to their reason for being there and have your guests introduce themselves so that all others at least know their names. Reiterate for them that ""NO,"" means ,""NO,"" and hope that they all comply. Also state that the common area is for gathering and intimacy takes place in other locales. Tell them where they are. Have replacement sheets near the beds and ask that when they leave the beds, they place a clean sheet on the bed. There is nothing nicer than climbing into a bed with a clean sheet! Soiled sheets are a downer at a party. Place hampers or containers nearby to place the soiled sheets in. Stress that they clean up and leave a clean playing area for those who follow. +3\. After a while as the guests begin to interact, engage them in some activity that creates intimacy. Have some tell of their private fantasies or things that they like. Engage in sensual conversation and have games that involve touching and a little exhibitionism with others than their partners. Dancing with non-partners even with all lights off should be encouraged. Glory holes can be used and intertwined in the games. The intent is to create an aura of familiarity, intimacy and sexuality among all guests. As this continues, touching, fondling and kissing will probably evolve and your guests will take it from there. +4\. Discourage sex in the common area, leaving it as a place for guests to socialize, re-energize and just commune. +5\. When guests decide to leave, make sure that they are not inebriated and also properly clad before they go outside. If they brought dishes, make sure that they have their plates and bowls, etc. +6\. Remind them to be cognizant of your neighbors and maintain a low profile as they leave. +These simple suggestions will help to make your private house party one that your guests will enjoy and want to return." +522,How To Tickle A Girl Insane,Smokey125,How To,2014-12-08,2014-12-08,2022-01-04 08:34:14,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-tickle-a-girl-insane,Prof. Sandra Burton gives a presentation on this very topic.,"['Bondage', 'Discipline And Sadomasochism', 'Driving A Woman Crazy', 'Ending Orgasms', 'Feathers', 'Fingers', 'Fun Tips And Tricks', 'Giselle Boudreaux', 'Pointers And Oil', 'Sandra Ariana Burton', 'Slideshow Presentation', 'Tickling Seminar', 'Violet Daniels']",4.05,"**SS39:** ""How To Tickle A Girl Insane"" +*** + _After two stories featuring husband-and-wife BDSMperors Mrs. Sandra Ariana Burton and Mr. Louis Oliver Burton at the forefront (""How To Break A Bad Rabbit"" and ""How To Wage A Wargasm""), I've brought them back for a third time—well, just Sandy this time (Lou had a similar previous engagement to keep this same evening, and was unable to be here for this particular function)—in another demonstrative instructional story: ""How To Tickle A Girl Insane."" And proving a bit different from the first two, this will be my first foray into the category of ""How-To."" Like a lot of my stories, it's LesBDSM-oriented._ +*** + **December 4th, 6:00 p.m.** +The auditorium teemed with guests and attendees in eager preparation and anticipation of this evening's presentation. The front desk at the floor boasted a laptop computer connected to the large screen above, which displayed tonight's lecture's title and topic. +The audience applauded as Professor Sandra Ariana Burton made her way out to the floor, wearing a white lab coat and a pair of eyeglasses on a chain—to establish a modicum of credibility, as well as academic situational kinkiness—carrying a tote box containing a semi-large array of various items. She sat the box on one corner of the desk, gave the crowd a wave and took a bow. +""Welcome!"" Sandy greeted. ""Thank you so much for coming! I am Professor Sandra Burton, and I am so proud and pleased to host this evening's symposium for you!"" She gestured to the screen and read the title. ""Tonight's Presentation: How To Drive A Woman Crazy, Through Both Sensual And Intense _Tickling!_ "" +The crowd applauded and cheered. Sandy scanned and examined the turnout, which was roughly three-quarters male. But the auditorium was also populated by quite a number of both coupled and single lesbians and bisexual women. Sandra had to admit to herself that her own excitement and enthusiasm about tonight didn't seem to compare to this audience's. +Sandy grinned. ""I know, yay!"" she agreed, pumping her fists into the air. ""Fun! Right?! +""Okay, so let's just go ahead and get started!"" she announced with a clap. ""So! How To Drive A Woman Crazy—as to why a woman, this is our presentation _this_ week. Next week, we're going to show and tell you how to drive a _man_ crazy with tickling. The more important question at this moment: why _tickling?_ "" She paused before answering. ""Anyone?"" +Several attendees glanced at each other. A few murmurs sprinkled through the air, but none of them spoke up or raised a hand. +""All right, I'll take this one,"" Sandra volunteered with a proud grin. She had the laptop and the slideshow application actively set up onscreen, as well as a camera positioned at a strategic level on the auditorium floor, for close-up footage of tonight's model whose services she would be using. Sandy sauntered to the laptop and pressed a key. The screen jumped to the next slide. +""'Tickle!'"" she read off the screen. ""'Verb! To poke, stroke, scratch or otherwise touch—normally a person—using any object, most commonly one's fingers, in such a manner as to evoke an involuntary sensation of titillation or tingling, which in turn produces one or another form of laughter from the recipient of aforementioned touching.'"" +Her narration of the definition provoked some applause from the crowd. +""Now, I know what some of you may be thinking, or may have already thought when you decided to attend this seminar. 'How To Tickle A Woman Crazy? Well, what's so complicated about that? I can do that; _anyone_ can do that. What's to know? Just grab her, pin her down and go to town on her, right? How hard can it be?' Well, I won't contradict you on that score, because I don't know you personally, so I'm unqualified to assess your tickling skills. What I want to do for you tonight is simply illustrate some interesting tips and tricks that'll hopefully help you sharpen and finesse your technique, and maybe teach you a couple things you didn't know. +""Tonight we are going to be examining the scientific side of tickling. So let's take a little look at the concept itself and see with what we're dealing here,"" Sandy went on. ""Now, if you ask me, tickling, in general, gets a really bad rap. I mean, we tickle-philes here this evening form quite a minority, in contrast to the whole population of the outside world. Grab your average person off the street and ask them how they feel about it. Ten times. Collect yourself ten random opinions and/or viewpoints. Normally, about five to seven will say they find tickling to be rather 'strange,' 'creepy' or 'really weird.'"" +She performed the same keystroke. An asterisk and the words, ""Based on actual study"" appeared on the screen. +""About three may say tickling is cute, if it's a kid or something, but they usually hate or feel funny about being tickled, or doing the tickling themselves. One out of these ten, however, may say they genuinely like it, or perhaps even find it to be a turn on— _if_ you're lucky. But even so, still, a _possible_ one out of ten...not such a great result. A fair number of folks are the least bit skeeved-out by the idea of basic skin-on-skin human contact—some are uncomfortable with so much as hugging, or even shaking hands—these folks are commonly germophobes—which already doesn't bode so great for us. Not that we're planning to 'tickle-molest' anyone, of course."" +The audience emitted some titters and chuckles. +""For the truly extreme and/or uptight, tickling is viewed as a form of harassment."" +Some ""boo""s and hisses punctuated this remark. +""I _know_. These are usually the same folks, by the way, who don't find the joke 'har-ass-meant nothing to me' funny at all."" +The crowd laughed a bit louder. +""But _then_ we've got an entire other side to the whole deal."" _Click_ —next screen. A diagram of a physically restrained stick person appeared. ""This is the level to which we take it once we kick in the bondage factor."" +The audience cheered. Sandra grinned and nodded, pointing around the room. +""Right? _Yeah_ , here's the good stuff. NOW then, once you have someone tied up—and presuming you actually know how to do it well enough so they won't escape—which, P.S., is what 'bondage' _means_ , so do it correctly—now ya got yourself a couple _options_."" + _Click_. Next slide. Three words in very large type ate up the entire screen: _NAUGHTY, OR NICE?_ +More cheers and laughter from the crowd. +""'Sa right!"" Sandy continued. ""Now that your victim is, eh... _down_ , shall we say...do you be _nice_ , and go easy on her, for a few cute giggles, some light pleading and a silly smile plastered over her face?..."" +Some knowing laughter and clapping ensued. A smirk crept up Sandy's face. +""...ORRRRR...do ya be _mean?_ +""Do you get _evil_ on her ass?... _Torture_ her? Punish her? Make her suffer?"" +The audience practically erupted in cheers and applause over this second option. Sandy clicked to the next screen. +""Here we are...now then, this is another aspect of our fun little shared fetish that outsiders...just...well, don't get. Once more, go grab those random folks you polled before, if they're still not too creeped-out by this point, and ask them their stance on restrained tickling. What's the first word that comes to mind?"" +A similar collection of murmurs emanated, through which Sandra detected the correct answer. +""'Abuse!' That's right! Now, okay, even we fetishists will admit it, there is a fine line between genuine abuse, and..."" Sandra shrugged and facially pretended she needed to consider her next words. +""...Hot, kinky fun."" +More cheers and applause. The mischievous grin returned to Sandra's face as she nodded and took a bow. + _Click_. Next slide. ""Now, we're all of course familiar with both the consensual and non-consensual forms of tickling used as torture. Many of us enjoy exploring the consensual side in our personal lives, normally as a way of spicing things up sexually, maintaining that kinky piping-hot goodness. Or some of us may use it as a fun little way to get our partner to give us something we want, yes? +""And _then_ of course we've got the variety of torture popularized by the Chinese, used mainly in the ways of interrogation or just plain downright torment. Now just _why_ is tickle torture so effective as a method of getting something you want out of someone?"" + _Click_. ""Because even though we can't tickle ourselves, we don't choose to laugh when we get tickled by someone else. It's an innate, normal human response to this stimulus. If we're ticklish, we can't help it. Obvious, but important to remember. We can't hold the reaction back. If we try, it swells up inside like a balloon and eventually we explode, 'cause we can't move our breath back and forth the way we're supposed to. Soon it's so overwhelming, we'll do whatever we can to get them to stop. Now here we've got another two sides to consider. Depending on whether we're '-lees' or '-lers,' if things get out of hand, it can be looked at two ways. Some might, again, call it abuse. To a lot of _us_ , however, tickle-philes and fetishists, there's no such _thing_ as out of hand, now is there?"" +The crowd broke out in another chorus of cheers. +""Right! A couple of factors in play here now. One, of course, the endorphin rush. Here's another of those infamous 'fine lines,' if you will. Dilemma: do you tickle until the victim begs you to stop, and then obey their wishes? Or do you just keep going? + _Click_. ""Sometimes you agree beforehand to use a safeword. Let's take an approximated audience poll real quick,"" said Sandy. ""All those of you who feel that safewords are a good idea and should be used, please applaud now."" +About two fifths of the audience cheered and clapped. +""Okay; and those who say to hell with safewords??"" +The other three fifths of the crowd roared, deafening their predecessors. +""Now _that_ is it of which I am speaking,"" agreed Sandra. ""Personally, I feel the same way, though I value differing opinions. Although for the _truly_ sadistic, you may make your victim _think_ she'll be able to have a safeword to make the torture stop, but when she tries to use it, the most evil of us say, 'Too bad, tickle-slave!' and keep going! After all, what's she gonna do about it all tied up?"" +More applause. +""At this point, we may run the risks of making the poor laughing doll declare that she _hates_ us, or is going to get us back _so_ bad for this when she gets out of it, but these are the chances we take when we put her through this kind of hell. +""A'righty!"" announced Sandy with a clap of the hands. ""Now comes the first moment we've all been waiting for, gents and ladies. Time to bring some of our discussion to life! So do please join me in giving a _very_ big, nice warm welcome to our tickle model for the evening. Direct from Paris, France, please give it up, for the lovely, Miss Giselle Boudreaux!"" +The biggest wave of cheers yet ensued as a beautiful young dark reddish-haired mademoiselle joined Sandy on the floor of the lecture hall, wearing only a robe and a pair of slippers. Sandra took and shook the young maiden's hand in both of hers. +""Bienvenue, ma amie!"" she said to Giselle. ""Lovely to have you here this evening!"" +Giselle mouthed a big ""bonjour"" and waved to the audience. +""They can hear you, Giselle,"" Sandy told her. ""The floor of the auditorium's miked. So you can talk at normal volume. They'll hear."" +""Oh, okay! Bonjour! Sank you, Madame Burton, merci!"" Mademoiselle Boudreaux replied with a big smile. ""Pleased to be here."" +""Pleased to have you with us. May I ask how old you are?"" +""I am 27,"" Giselle informed her. +""Great. How long have you been in the States?"" Sandy asked. +""Two years."" +""Terrific! Are you liking it here so far?"" +""Oh, yes. Folk is very kind, city is so beautiful, food is quite delicious. I am sorry my English is not very perfect. But just before I come here I buy T-shirt zat says, 'I heart America.'"" +The crowd cheered and began to break into a chant of, ""U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!"" Giselle grinned and nodded in agreement, waving her fist in the air in rhythm with the chant. +""That's so awesome,"" said Sandra as the chant died down. ""Well, this little corner of America is e _special_ ly delighted to have you with us tonight. And your English sounds pretty darn good to me. Now, as I understand, you're quite a fan of tickling, yourself?"" +""OOOH, yes!"" she answered excitedly. ""Is one of my favorite sings. I love to tickle, and to be tickled. I laugh very hard eizer way."" +""Excellent,"" said Sandy. ""I guarantee you're gonna be doing some heavy laughing this evening. +""And you've done quite a bit of modeling as well, yes?"" +""Oui, madame. Bohs here and in my homeland I am model."" +""Perfect! That makes you an ideal candidate,"" said Sandy. ""Have you ever done fetish work? Anything in the adult film business?"" +""Eh, just a bit."" +""Okay, good enough,"" Sandy nodded. ""So why don't you go ahead and show our audience just what they will be admiring this evening..."" She turned to the crowd with a wink. +Giselle turned her back to the audience momentarily as she slipped off her robe and slippers. The crowd began to verbally appreciate what they saw right away. Sandy and Giselle heard a number of whistles and other forms of approval. Giselle was flattered, but also quite used to the attention by this point in her career. +Sandy took the robe and slippers and placed them away, letting the audience took a good long drink of their model, who performed a few twirls for them, giving everyone in the room a complete view of her shapely physique. +""Okay! So,"" said Sandra, returning to center stage with the now naked Giselle, ""As we know, my husband Lou has filled you in on the details of our little, eh...demonstration this evening..."" she said discreetly, winking to the audience again. ""...Are you nervous?"" +""Eh...little bit, yes,"" Giselle admitted with a chuckle. ""But also very excited."" +""'Atta girl,"" encouraged Sandy. ""You're gonna be _just fine_."" +The members of the audience who already knew Sandra Burton were well acquainted with this tone. A few knowing titters and snippets of evil laughter at their model-victim adorned this remark. +Sandra furled out a long, soft bedsheet, laid it across the surface of the desk and patted it. ""So why don't you go ahead and hop on up here, Giselle, and we'll lasso ya on down."" +Giselle obeyed, and Sandy retrieved her strings of rope. Both were an equally considerable length, to handle just about any bondage job called for. The first thing Sandy did was to take Giselle's ankles one by one, bring her feet to the corners of the desk and tie them to its front legs. Then she threaded the remaining rope under the desk, brought it up behind the back, took the girl's hands behind _her_ back and tied them together. The display earned yet more applause, from audience members who were becoming rather turned on watching Sandy truss the young lady up, as well as in anticipation of what was to follow. Giselle was now sitting on the desk facing the audience, hands behind her back, legs lying straight out spread-eagle. +""Theeeeeere we go..."" announced Sandra as she finished up. She came back around to the front again to reassess her handiwork. +""Beautiful. Can you move around at all, Giselle?"" +Giselle tried to squirm and wriggle around as best she could, which wasn't very well. +""I don't sink so."" +""Fantastic. Then things are going just as they should."" Sandy went into her tote box of tools and toys and fished out her blindfold. +""Now, ladies and gentlemen, I always highly recommend using a blindfold myself,"" she told them. ""I am a _big_ , big proponent of them. For two major reasons. One, if your victim can't see, obviously, she won't be able to tell where you're coming from or what you're about to do to her— _if_ you don't give her any warning, that is, of course—thereby heightening the suspense and excitement of it all. A lack of any warning is very key. Keep her antsy. And remember, she'll be struggling for breath. And _you_ control when she gets to breathe and when she doesn't. Oh yes, and something not many people realize: in order to laugh, you must be exhaling. If you try to laugh while inhaling, you'll make a strange choking-like sound. It's not natural to do this. So if you can see your girl's belly going out, indicating she's _in_ haling, go for it. She'll be forcibly thrown into a laughing _ex_ halation, and she'll just get weaker and weaker. +""And _two_ , as we know, when we lose one sense, we've still got four other senses which are then enhanced...eh, well, unless of course you're Haley Joel Osment, then it's _five_ other senses. +""But anyway,"" Sandy continued, ""In this case, having the sense of sight taken away, our Mademoiselle Giselle Boudreaux will have her other senses heightened, including the sense of touch."" She slipped the blindfold over her eyes and tied it in the back. +""How's that, Giselle? Is that comfy? Can you see?"" +""Oui, is fine. Non, I cannot see."" +""Good!"" +Sandy gripped her from around the back and dug her nails into Giselle's hips. She burst out laughing. +""Okay!"" exclaimed Sandy over the applause supplied by the crowd. ""There's _one_ spot! +""Now then,"" she ambled around the desk to Giselle's side. Giselle turned her head to follow as she moved. Sandy placed a finger to her lips to quietly signal the audience to remain silent. She clicked the laptop keyboard. The next slide appeared on the big screen. + _ASCERTAINMENT OF VICTIM'S WEAK SPOTS_ rolled across the screen, word by word. The crowd could see why Sandra'd asked them to remain quiet at this point. Before saying anything more for the moment, Sandy went to her tote box and retrieved a standard pointer used for presentations and seminars just like this. Tonight, however, it would serve a slightly different utilization. +The ivory pointer was honed to a relatively fine point at the nameworthy end—not quite enough to injure someone, but just enough to tease or irritate them to the point of frustrating ticklishness. Sandy began to put it to use on Giselle. +The first area she touched was the girl's left armpit. She squirmed and chuckled in response. +""Ascertainment of your victim's weak spots,"" Sandra now narrated. ""Or, as we in the biz also like to call them, ' _sweet_ ' spots. +""There're a few ways to do this. One is, you can simply ask."" Sandy turned to her. ""Giselle, where are you most ticklish?"" +""Um...my-my feet...uh, m—"" +Sandra slid the end of the pointer down the sole of her left foot. Not expecting it, Giselle let out a tiny shriek. +""EEEEE!"" she giggled amidst laughter and applause from the audience. +""Go on,"" instructed Sandy. ""Where else?"" +Now more nervous, Giselle nonetheless continued. +""My, uh...my bellybutton..."" +She paused and instinctively sucked in her belly, anticipating the tickly sensation to strike the given point next. When it didn't immediately come, she let it back out and went on. +""A-and my, uh—"" + _Now_ , of course, Sandra tickled her bellybutton. +""AAAAAHHaahahaa!"" laughed Giselle. More cheering. ""Hey! Zat's not fair!"" +""Nobody ever said life was fair, Giselle. Go on then, where else?"" +""Um...um..."" +Giselle was starting to feel hesitant disclosing this fragile information being used against her. Of course, she knew what this night would entail; she had to expect this sort of thing. Somehow, simply imagining it wasn't as intimidating as having it actually happen. It crossed her mind to remain silent from this point about her most sensitive and ticklish areas, but she knew that wouldn't exactly hinder them from being explored or discovered. +Almost as if reading her mind, Sandra tickled her right foot with the pointer, using her other hand on her belly and ribs. +""We're going to find those spots one way or another, Giselle, ma amie chatouilleuse. So you might as well just spill 'em for me."" +Oh, sacrebleu, thought Giselle. For the first time this evening, she was beginning to get pretty scared. But Sandy knew she'd have to cease eventually, so she did, giving Giselle a short break, turning back again to address the audience. +""Of course, if your victim is reluctant to reveal her susceptible areas, the next move is self-evident,"" said Sandra. +A few audience members called out. +""That's correct, my friends; find 'em yourself!"" +Giselle gulped. +""This will be lots of fun. Well, for _you_."" The crowd laughed. +""I.e., the tick _ler_. Depending on how much your girl gets excited—or even gets off—on being tickled, it can be lots of fun for her too. Now, what I like to do is test each area using the same instrument. Doesn't matter what the instrument is. Could be your finger, could be a feather, a pointer, anything. The variable in play is the victim's body. By using the same tool all over, you get an accurate reading of where your girl is most ticklish. +""Now, she has already been kind and brave enough to divulge the vulnerability of her _feet_ for us..."" +Sandy rapidly wiggled the end of the pointer again up and down Giselle's left foot. She broke out laughing once more. +""Oh, what a delightful, delightful sound,"" commented Sandra, her voice bearing hints of ominous malice. ""Now let's do the other one, 'cause we can't leave one out, that's not fair, now is it?"" +So she got her right foot next, which provoked the same result. +""I'd call that a tie—no pun intended—between both feet,"" determined Sandra. ""And I give them about a 9 on a scale of 10. This is a scale I'm using. I'll tell you the ratings I'm going to give on these, and that way I can show you how my findings and evaluation can also help you determine more conclusive data."" +Giselle felt the pointer glide up the side of her right leg next, approaching her calf. She began to tense up and giggle. +""Keep in mind, your data may be slightly compromised if your victim's in too much anticipation and her power of suggestion comes into play,"" Sandra noted. ""She may then appear more ticklish than actually is. But it won't be compromised too much. Even if it seems her mind is playing tricks on her—mind over matter and all that—her body will nevertheless yield the truth."" +The pointer rode up to her thigh. Giselle let out a small squeal. +""Aha. See, we've got another trigger on the inner thigh right here,"" said Sandra. She waggled the pointer and made her laugh once again, less hard. ""Eh, okay, not quite as strong, but worthy of note. I'll give that a 6."" +Her other leg and thigh gave up a similar reaction. Giselle was nervously anticipatory of what was to come next, but she was granted a bit of temporary relief as Sandra said, ""All right, we're gonna skip the private property for now and come back to it later. First, let's go on with the rest of the upper body."" +Sandy went on narrating things as she ran the same simple test across Giselle's torso from side to side, along her ribs and tummy, basically all of this area she deemed a 7. Sliding up to her underarms and chest, the number rose. Under the arms was an 8, and all over and around her very sensitive 34C breasts and their nipples a 9. When Sandra tickled her tits, Giselle flung her hair around to try and protect them with it. But Sandra had thought of this beforehand. +""Nice try,"" said Sandy, pointing the pointer. Turning back to the crowd, she instructed, ""Also not a bad idea to keep some hair ties and scrunchies on hand, to keep the girl's hair in check."" She plucked one from the tote and ponytailed Giselle's crimson locks. +""Now that _that_ 's taken care of..."" She took up the pointer once more to go over the girl's neck—a 5—the jawline and under the chin—also a 5—and not least but last, her ears—a 4. +""Excellent,"" said Sandy, letting the pointer drop. She crossed to Giselle's other side, intentionally loudening her steps. Giselle turned her head in the direction of the footsteps. ""Now that you've got this list of scores according to your girl's more vulnerable areas, you can put it to strategic use in terrorizing her. And I will now demonstrate the next technique I'm going to show you."" +Standing to Giselle's right, in which direction the girl's head was still turned, Sandy reached around her back to her _left_ and attacked her left side and armpit. Giselle shouted in raucous laughter, reflexively trying to turn her head and bite Sandra's hand. +""The Diversion Tactic, ladies and gentlemen,"" Sandra explained. ""Making her think you're going one way when in fact you're planning otherwise. All part of distracting your victim's mind and messing with her head, in order to more effectively torment her."" +More applause followed. ""Devious and sadistic, folks. This is part of the whole mindset you want if you wish to drive a girl tickle-crazy: devious, sneaky, and sadistic. Sweet and benevolent _won't_ get the job done. Even if you are by nature sweet and benevolent, playful and mischievous might work for you, considering you're doing something that, when all is said and done, is actually good for your victim's health, heart and overall circulation. Many folks fail to realize just how healthy a hearty dose of laughter actually is. Did you know that laughter can help oxygenate your blood, lower your blood pressure and even strengthen your immune system?"" +The spell of audience murmuring that followed suggested that some did not. While in the midst of this contemplation, surprising everyone, Sandra whirled on Giselle and very abruptly ravaged her midsection. Giselle screamed and tried her best to struggle away. +""Devious and sadistic!"" Sandy reiterated. ""No warnings, no mercy! I'm telling you, folks, blindfold your girl, spring a few surprises on her...and you _own_ her. It's like having her in a mental vise. Now you can play whatever games you will with her pretty little head. +""Like, here's one of _my_ favorite games,"" she illustrated. She stood before Giselle and began randomly poking her up and down with her fingers. Giselle started reflexively squealing and jerking back and forth. +""Ooh! Oooh! Where'm I goin'?"" Sandy asked impishly, continuing to aimlessly rapidly prod her. ""Where're we goin'? Where're we goin'??"" Giselle was having a little trouble keeping it together. She burst out guffawing hysterically. +""'Atta girl,"" said Sandy, patting her thigh. ""Now, we've got some traditional tickle games from our childhoods: Guess The Toy, Buzzing Bee, Favorite Kiss, Magic Spot, et cetera. The most famous of all, easily: This Little Piggie. Perfect for us grown-ups who wish to stay in touch with our juvenile sides. Sufficient for kids, but appropriate for adults as well if taken past the predictable limits. +""Bottom line: there are exceptions to every rule, but the rule in this case is—a harder, more aggressive touch is normally gonna get you more of a result. Evident info, but you stimulate those nerve endings enough, your victim _will_ go categorically in-freakin'-sane."" +Giselle swallowed anxiously. +""There you are,"" gestured Sandra. ""That's what you w—y'know-actually, y'know what, let me get you a close-up of this."" +Sandy pranced back to the laptop and struck a couple of keys. A light lit up on the camera mounted on the floor sitting in front of Giselle. The big screen flipped from the slideshow presentation to Giselle's body. The crowd lit up themselves, applauding further. +""Terrific."" Sandy returned to Giselle's side and hopped on the desk with her. ""As I was saying, note the worried look on the model's face. See that? That's ex _act_ ly what you want, right there. She's not acting; she's genuinely intimidated. Now begins the _real_ fun."" +Sandra turned to Giselle and purposely chuckled at her with a very evil- sounding undertone, intended solely to frighten her. +""Let's just put this in perspective,"" Sandy said to the audience. ""Take a step back and collect stock of what's going on here, folks. You've got a naked girl, tied up and blindfolded, at your disposal."" +Someone in the audience shouted something above the cheering. +""Sorry?"" Sandy called. ""Say again?"" +""Just the way _every_ girl should be!"" the audience member jokingly yelled out, egged on by some additional laughing and cheering. +""Ah. Well, in this scenario, yes,"" agreed Sandy. ""This setup in and of itself instills a great deal of power and control in the dominant party. Think about it; she can't move, she can't see—take the factor of tickling out, and you can do literally _anything_ to her right now. +""And there's absolutely _nothing_...she can do about it."" +As the audience became more and more revved up, Giselle became more daunted. +""This is an additionally effective device to put into play to drive your girl utterly insane,"" said Sandy, arm around Giselle, patting her outer shoulder. ""Toss some cruel taunting her way. Throw a scare into her! Once you've got that idea planted in her head, she'll carry it with her throughout the experience, and in her mind it will psychologically intensify the impact on her. Like, try this one."" +She turned to Giselle and lowered her voice. +""Are you _scared_ , honey?"" she asked her ominously. +""Oui, Madame,"" Giselle admittedly nodded. +""Good,"" purred Sandra maliciously. ""You _should_ be. +""Right then!"" Sandy hopped down on the floor and retrieved her tote box. ""Now we've taken a look at how the pointer works, as well as the fingers and nails, so let's try some other devices, belonging to the plumery family."" +Giselle felt something tease her cheek. She tittered. +""This is a standard crow feather,"" said Sandy. ""It's fluffy, yet has a moderate heft to it. Again, it may depend on your victim and her sensitivity to light touches versus heavy touches, but in the majority of cases, your stiffer feathers will get you more of a laugh."" +Sandra waved the crow feather over Giselle's body, giving her a light taste of it. +""You can refer back to your point rating system to remind yourself of your girl's most ticklish areas, but keep in mind at the same time, while reliable, even the most conclusive data can fluctuate."" +She took up and displayed another feather. +""Here's your basic peacock feather. Very, very soft. Observe."" +Sandy used this one on the bottoms of her left toes first. Giselle reflexively wiggled and curled her piggies, giggling like a little girl. +""Before setting about to truly drive your girl out of her poor mind, I highly encourage you to try all different kinds of feathers. Soft ones, stiff ones, fluffy ones, any you can find. Even on the less fragile body areas. Just play about with her, y'know? Annoy her a little. Find out what gets which types of reactions. Again, you've got her tied up; where's she gonna go? +""Now here we go,"" Sandra resumed, twirling another feather, long and white. ""This one's stiffer. This feather belongs to a mallard duck. 'S see what happens here."" For this she opted for Giselle's bellybutton. She slipped it in and twirled it. Giselle abruptly tossed her head back and broke out laughing, extra hard. +""Ooh! Nice!"" assessed Sandy. Keeping it up with this mallard feather, she picked up the crow feather and also tickled the sole of Giselle's foot simultaneously. Her laughter logically increased. +""Once more than one toy is brought into play, so then can be more than one area of the body,"" said Sandy. ""And here's an important point: don't worry about only focusing on the most ticklish areas. Tickling someone in multiple spots is a bit like a chess game, in a way; the weaker chesspersons should combine with the more powerful for strong, effective play. And don't stay on any one spot for too long, otherwise the brain will start to grow accustomed to this spot being tickled, and the effect will decrease. +""Another reason to tickle all over, and mix various degrees of ticklishness together, is that with numerous triggers to be forced to focus on, the human brain will subsequently start to become overwhelmed, and thus dulled in its functioning. Now, certainly we don't want the girl to be lobotomized as a result of our escapades, but we _do_ want her to be out of control and go crazy. +""Observe what happens when I tickle under the chin."" She used the crow feather. The reaction was reduced to a small chortling. +""See? Not much. _Now_ let's bring one of the more sensitive spots into play at the same time again."" +Sandy took the mallard feather and twirled it between Giselle's toes, with which Giselle grabbed and pinched it. +""Ah—bad girl! _Bad!_ "" Sandra scolded, aggressively raking her nails up the girl's sole. Giselle screamed in laughter and dropped the feather. Sandy reclaimed it, whipping it then back and forth and down her arch. Giselle was going nuts. The crowd noted her rocking and struggling, laughing even harder than before. In between her laughs she nabbed a breath, gasped and blew in the direction of the feathers, trying to push them away with expulsions of air. +""Ah, she's trying to blow them away,"" Sandra clarified. ""This brings you to a decision. She's starting to act irrationally, as you can see, thinking she can just _whoosh_ the tickling away like this, so what's your next move? Do you keep going with the feathers? _OR_..."" +Sandy gave Giselle a bit of a break, laying the feathers to rest on the desk. +""...Do you..."" +She replaced them with her fingers, vigorously jiggling under her chin and digging into the bottom of her other foot. Raising her voice to be heard above the screaming laughter, she finished. +""...USE SOMETHING ELSE, SUCH AS YOUR DIGITS, INSTEAD??"" +Giselle was indeed beginning as feel as if she was losing it. The Burtons had warned her what she was getting herself into when she signed on to be part of this presentation, but she still wasn't quite expecting this level of unruliness. Fortunately, she was soon granted another merciful rest. ""Now, a little tangent to go off on here. +""As regards tickling with the feather, one of the questions I am asked most frequently is, can you make someone sneeze by tickling her nose with a feather, the way they do in cartoons? And the answer, I'm afraid, as funny a little trick as this would be, is a no. Great touch for that classic slumber party shaving cream prank, but for getting a sneeze effect...no. Let's try it and you'll see."" +She showed them, removing the pheasant feather from the tote and lightly waving it in the girl's left nostril. She twitched and turned her face away with a wince, but did nothing else just now. +""Oh, mon dieu,"" Giselle uttered, scrunching her face up, trying to make the irritating tingly feeling in her nose go away. +""There, you see? If this were possible at all, your best bet would be a feather more of this consistency, like a pheasant feather, maybe a couple of them, and such an effect could only be achieved by twirling the tips of the feathers inside the nostrils. And even then, the sensation this causes is too light to disturb anything enough to trigger a sneeze. You would have to 'cheat' to pull this off, thereby sprinkling the feather with a dash of pepper, or dander, or pollen, or ragweed or something. Don't worry, though, Giselle, we're not going to do that to you. +""So let's go back to the slideshow for a moment,"" said Sandra, clicking the laptop to do so. ""And go to the next portion of our lecture, which explains, why are we ticklish in the first place to begin with? Easy; two words— +""Nerve, endings."" +The two words popped up in boldface on the screen, clearly visible even in the back of the auditorium. +""These are of course the same little guys that detect pain, and tell our brains when and how much to hurt. The human body contains _millions_ and _millions_ of nerve endings, and it's thoroughly impossible to put your finger on a number with any degree of accuracy, because, natch, everyone's body is slightly different in these regards, and also because due to day-to-day activity and other related factors, the number shifts from one day to the next. What we do know is that each bodily region can contain upwards of one thousand nerve endings each. In the more fragile spots, like one's extremities and genitals, the numbers go up. For example, since our topic tonight involves tickling a woman, let's have a look at the neurological side of the female anatomy."" + _Click_. A list of the female body parts appeared on screen with a corresponding lineup of estimated nerve ending amounts, sorted by the latter. Sandra read it off for them. But not before the audience cheered reading it themselves. +""And just off the lead at number two, the bottoms of the feet, at seven thousand—to which I think our sweet friend Giselle here can definitely attest. And finally, at ol' numero uno on the girl-bod, at a rough eight thou, our friend, the clitoris."" +More applause. +""Yay!"" Sandy cheered along. ""I'll let you in on a little secret vis-à-vis the clitoris you may not know. The clit serves absolutely NO purpose, other than exponentially boosting a chick's sexual pleasure. Almost _any_ thing that physically drives a girl downright cuh-RAZY...involves our little buddy Clitty here. Now, if you can get inside there and really _nail_ her g-spot, she's yours. I will promise you that right now. But unfortunately, ol' G. Spotty is not always readily accessible."" +She clicked the laptop. Next slide. A shot of a woman's vagina wide ajar appeared, to the audience's further approval, along with another definition. A line connected the word in the text to the clitoris in the photo. +""'Clitoris. Noun. The extra sensitive elongated erectile organ at the anterior region of the vulva, in female mammals.' +""First preference pronunciation, incidentally: KLIT-ə-rəs, accent on the first syllable. Second: klə-TOR-əs, second syllable. But just for a bit of edification. Big fat hairy deal, my friends—we all know what it is, and the second and third syllables usually don't even come into play, unless you're at the doctor's office or something. Bottom line—or, well, _top_ line, rather—it's a clit. Easy."" + _Click_. A side-view diagram illustration of a woman's midsection appeared, again with text and a line pointing to it. +""And here's your g-spot. 'Sensitive, erogenous zone on the anterior wall of the vagina.' In other words, if you don't know where the g-spot is, go inside her, palm up, curl your fingers upwards alongside the interior and reach along until you come to a soft, fleshy patch of skin inside. It's located just about halfway between the vaginal opening and the cervix. Great for swelling during sexual arousal, but for tickling, not quite so much. We'll go more into the g-spot in a future seminar."" She returned to the camera on Giselle. +""For right now, what do you think, friends?"" said Sandra, throwing her arm around Giselle and shaking her like her B.F.F. ""Shall we put this chick's genitalia to the test??"" +"" _YEAH!!_ "" came the deafening roar, accompanied by further cheering and clapping. +""Well a'right, my ticklish friend!"" Sandy grinned, kissing Giselle on the cheek. ""Time to say your prayers!"" +""Oh, Madame, se il vous plaît, have mercy on me..."" Giselle moaned. +Sandra clicked the laptop once more and found the appropriate slide to respond to this. Apparently, she knew Giselle would make this exact request at some point in the seminar. She found the slide and read out loud. +""'Mercy. Noun. Relenting or forbearance to cause or allow harm to another. Forgiveness or compassion, especially toward those less fortunate than oneself. Pity.' All right, now, Giselle, my dear lass..."" said Sandra, clapping a hand on the model's shoulder, ""...After reading that definition...I _still_ don't know what the word means."" She grinned amidst more audience laughter. +Giselle bowed her head and began mock-weeping, not far from the real thing. Sandra went back to the tote box. +""All right, now, I'm not always wild about using these, but for purposes of demonstration, I'm going to,"" she said, showing the crowd the objects she'd just retrieved, a pair of genital clips, which resembled bent scissors. ""These are gonna be a bit uncomfy—on our victim, that is to say—but a few minutes later, comfort is going to be the _last_ thing on her mind."" +Giselle whipped a worried expression on Sandra. Sandy crossed to the model's other side, leaving Giselle looking in the direction of nothing, and again clicked on the laptop. The screen went back to the full-on camera shot of Giselle sitting on the desk. The next Sandy took from the tote was a spool of thin but sturdy string, which she threaded around the handles of the genital clips. +""'Kay, Giselle, my gal, try not to be alarmed by what I'm about to do,"" warned Sandy, which uneased Giselle already. +""Wh—...what are you about to _do?_ "" +Sandy reached between the girl's legs, gently began to pull apart her delicately groomed labia and applied the clips. +Giselle gasped. ""Hey!"" she exclaimed. ""OW! Stop zat!"" +""Oh, now, don't be a baby, sweetheart. It's just gonna be a teensy bit painful."" +""WHAT?!"" cried out Giselle. ""You never said anysing about pain!"" +""Didn't I?"" Sandra evasively sidestepped. ""Anyway, don't worry, dollface. The tickling's gonna be _way_ worse than the pain."" +Giselle gulped. If this was true, Madame Burton was right; she _should_ be scared. +Ten minutes later, Giselle was wincing as the string around her legs pulled the clips which were attached to her pussy lips with just enough force to keep them in their grips, holding her exposed cunt wide open. The audience was through applauding the revelation of her soft pink vagina, which now sat ajar on its own. +""Madame, zis hurts,"" Giselle complained. ""I don't like it."" +""Well, I notice you punctuated those statements with periods, not exclamation points, so it can't hurt quite _that_ much,"" Sandy remarked, unloading more items from the tote box. +Giselle nodded. ""Okay, zen, let me rephrase. Zis _hurts!_ I don't _like it!_ "" +Sandra chuckled. ""I appreciate you maintaining your sense of humor, Giselle. Now, ladies and gents, I'm going to need a volunteer. Giselle, do you have a preference between a male or female volunteer?"" +""Um, _non_ ,"" she grumbled, her sarcastic side emerging. +""All righty. Hang in there, sweetie. That frown'll turn upside-down soon enough. So, anyone down front like to volunteer for us?"" +Several very fascinated attendees began to literally jump at the chance, but were beaten to it by an eager young woman near the middle of the front row, who promptly raised her hand and stood. She leapt in front of Sandy before any of her neighbors had a chance to get there. ""I'd love to!"" she smiled. +""Fantastic!"" said Sandy, holding out her hand. ""Your name then, please, Miss?"" +""Violet Daniels."" +""Well, lovely to meet you, Violet. Why don't you come around to the back here and shake Giselle's hand?"" +""Pleasure, Miss Giselle,"" said Violet, as the immobile model felt her indeed shaking her hand behind her back. +""Pleasure is _mine_ ,"" Giselle rejoined a bit sourly. +""Right. Now Violet, the first thing I'd like you to do is choose your weapon—ER, your tool of choice,"" quipped Sandy, prompting some laughter from the crowd. She'd laid out the array of tickle toys from the box beforehand. ""We've got a variety of feathers, some of which you've already seen put to use, a couple hair clips, few nail files and letter openers, a set of stick-on fingernails, a fork, a backscratcher, a bobble hairbrush...few other odds and ends here...what do you like?"" +""Ooh, I _really_ like the look of the hairbrush,"" Giselle heard Violet's icy voice coo. She shivered. +""Very good!"" praised Sandy. ""Now, my friends, upon actually engaging in this yourself, you might not have a friend to help you tickle your girl, and you might not be able to locate some of these items, in which case you can simply improvise. Lots of different things can effectively tickle someone if you simply use them properly. +""So! Our friend Violet has chosen her implement— _I_ , meanwhile..."" She put a finger to her lips again, discouraging the audience from making any sound immediately. ""...Will be using _this_."" +Sandra had been saving this particular item since the inception of the presentation, which she retrieved from behind the desk. This item she was now breaking out to show the crowd was an ostrich feather: an entire foot long, whose plumage resembled the droops of a weeping willow tree. It too was extra fluffy but retained some sure tangibility. She waved it over Giselle's back between her arms. +""How's _that_ feel, mademoiselle?"" +A chill rode up Giselle's body. ""Eeeeeeee!"" she squeaked. +""Wonderful!"" celebrated Sandy. ""Now push up on the desk and lift your ass for me."" +Giselle turned her head around as far as she could reach. ""Huh??"" +Sandy lifted her hands by the wrists and gave her a light spank on the left ass cheek. ""You heard me."" +Giselle reluctantly leaned back, clenched her fists, pressed her carpals on the desk and fulcrumed up her bum. +""Good girl,"" said Sandy. She slipped the feather beneath Giselle's bottom, perineum and pussy, turned it 90° on its side, so that its plume was now perpendicular to the desk, and gave her permission to let herself down. +""Aaaaaand, sit."" +Giselle obeyed, and Sandra whipped the ostrich feather through her from the back, snaking it through all the girl's most vulnerable regions betwixt her thighs, viciously tickle-sawing her from the cunt to the asshole. +Giselle shrieked her lungs out, to the voyeuristic delight of the crowd. +""Whoo-hoo!"" Sandra whooped from behind her. ""Enjoy that, did ya??"" +""What ze hell was _zat?!_ "" the model screeched. +""What ze hell did it _feel_ like?"" Sandy teased her, holding up her wrists and waggling the ostrich feather under her anus. +""AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!"" Giselle screamed once more. ""STOPPIT!!"" +""Oh, I do believe we're reaching our goal, ladies and gents; she's going crazy on us!"" announced Sandy. +A considerable wave of applause followed. +""OH mon foutu DIEU, I _hate_ you!"" Giselle declared. +""Aw, _thank_ you!"" Sandra graciously returned. ""How _sweet!_ "" She gently spanked her again. +""All right, come on, lift 'er on up!"" +""WHAT?!"" +""Once more, you heard me, doll. _Do it_."" +Giselle groaned. ""Oh, I can't believe zis,"" she muttered under her breath, leaning back. +""Care to join me this time, Violet?"" Sandra proposed sadistically. +""Okay, can I do her feet??"" Violet asked eagerly. +""Oh, you bohs so _cruel!_ "" Giselle shouted. +""Aw, ain't she adorable?"" gushed Sandy, fondling Giselle's facial cheek. ""Okay, so, Giselle, my friend, our volunteer Violet is going to be tickling your feet, and I'm going to handle your, eh...between the legs situation here, front to back. Cool?"" +""Oh, let's just get it over wis,"" Giselle groused. +""Okay, then, my dear..."" Sandra silently clicked over to the next slide, put her finger to her lips once more and pointed up. A new set of words floated onto the screen— +VOLUNTEER: I WILL BEGIN TO COUNT DOWN FROM 4, SO THE VICTIM WILL _THINK_ WE WILL BEGIN TICKLING AFTER 1. BUT WE WILL _ACTUALLY_ START ON **3**. THIS IS ANOTHER EXTREMELY EFFECTIVE TECHNIQUE ON A BLINDFOLDED VICTIM, TAKING ANY AND ALL FEELING OF SECURITY AWAY FROM HER, AND REMINDING HER THAT SHE CAN NO LONGER TRUST EVEN HER OWN MIND. ARE YOU READY? +Sandy waited for Violet to finish reading, and once again held her finger to her lips. Violet nodded enthusiastically. +""Okay, let's count down to it,"" called Sandy deliberately. ""Four...three—"" +As planned, they attacked prematurely. Violet took the hairbrush in her left hand, devilishly torturing Giselle's right foot with it, and used her right hand on the left foot. And Sandra repeated the saw technique, slithering the ostrich feather from between Giselle's pussy lips back to the posterior. The sound that came out of her was utterly indescribable. +""GOTCHA!"" Sandra laughed at her wickedly. +"" _AAAHHHHH! AAHHAAAAA! HAAAHAAAAAAAHHH!!_ PLEA...PLEASE... _STOP!!_ "" Giselle erupted. ""I...I CAN'T... _BREAZE!!_ "" +""Ah—"" Sandy held up a hand. ""Okay, Vi? Hold off for just a moment, please."" +Violet let up. Giselle was about to start sobbing her eyes out for real. +""Giselle has just brought up another valuable piece of information I must pass along to you, in the name of science and accuracy,"" Sandra said to the crowd. ""If your victim claims she can't breathe, don't listen. She is fibbing. _We_ halted for now, but just so I could bring this to your attention. If she's able to tell you she can't breathe, she's still breathing. If you can talk, you can breathe. Audibly saying the words 'I can't breathe'...is a lie."" +She turned back to Giselle with a malevolent sneer. ""And we _do_ know what happens to _liars_ , now don't we, Madem-Giselle?"" +Giselle hung her head and cried, dampening the blindfold. This evil woman was heartless and merciless. +""Oh, ple-e-e-ease,"" she begged tearfully. +""Liars..."" Sandy paused for effect. ""...Must be _punished_."" +She forced Giselle to lift her butt for the third time, and snaked the ostrich feather beneath once more. +""Violet, if you would, please, take the mallard feather there, the—yes, that's it, the white one. Very good—and, eh, if, this time, you would be so kind as to, uh...'clickle' her 'tit' with it, please?"" She winked at Violet, reaching around Giselle's body and pointing to her exposed, erect clit. ""You can continue on her foot with the brush too. Ooh, yes, and this will help as well."" She removed from the box and handed Violet a small bottle of slippery baby oil, which Violet knew what to do with. She winked back at Sandy. +""Yes, it's a shame you don't have a third hand so you can get both her feet _and_ the, eh...other area there at the same time."" +""I could tickle her other foot with my mouth,"" Violet suggested. +""Oh! That's good thinking! Great, good girl!"" congratulated Sandra. ""And I will carry on from back here. Remember— _no_ mercy."" +""No-o-o-o-o..."" Giselle wept, tears spilling down her red cheeks. ""Please don't, zis is tortu-u-u-ure!"" +""I'm sorry, Giselle,"" Sandra shrugged matter-of-factly. ""You agreed to be our model for this evening. You knew what you were getting yourself into."" +""But-but...no, I didn't! Not _zis!_ "" Giselle contradicted. +""I beg to differ. We asked you if you would be willing to take absolutely anything we could dish out, and you expressly said yes."" +""But...b-but I-I didn't expect—"" +""All set, Violet??"" called Sandy, cutting off Giselle's desperate protests. +""Yep!"" Violet called back, lubing up the bottom of Giselle's right foot with the baby oil. +""Wh—?? What is _zat_ now?!"" Giselle demanded to know, feeling the warm wetness on her sole. +""Dynamite!"" said Sandy. ""Well, then, what the hell're we waiting for, right? _Get her!_ "" +""NOOOOO—"" Giselle once again began to screamingly implore before she was chopped off by the latest wave of tickle torture. Uncaged laughter stabbed at her larynx and lungs, accompanied by shrieks of the evening's sought-after insanity at the sensation of the mallard feather's blade brushing over her pulsing clit, which she had not been expecting. She'd misunderstood Sandra's instructional disguised phrase 'clickle her tit,' and so had been anticipating her _breast_ being attacked—but which too was now also happening, courtesy of Sandra's free hand. Giselle'd been waiting for that, but not having her clit tickled. +The hairbrush was flying back and forth over her now oiled up right sole, and Violet was indeed putting her mouth to work on the left foot, nibbling and licking on and between the toes, the ball and the arch. Sandy's previously dormant five fingers and nails were working her boobs equally as hard, jumping over and around her torso to get at her armpits and ribs as well. She also altered the activity of the ostrich feather under Giselle's taint with the other hand, keeping it in place and maliciously _twirl_ ing it, instead of straight-sawing it back. The next thing unfortunate Giselle knew, she was...of _ficial_ ly...out of her mind. And so was the audience. +""DON'T FORGET TO SWITCH IT UP ON HER!"" Sandra yelled to the crowd, again to be heard over Giselle's hyena-like laughter, as she randomly grabbed, pinched, squeezed, prodded and dug her nails into patternless points on the poor girl's flesh. ""DON'T LET HER BE ABLE TO PREDICT WHAT'S COMING! KEEP HER ON HER TOES!...SO TO SPEAK!"" she added with a laugh. +There was no doubt about it, Professor Sandra Burton was well aware what she was doing on her this evening. She _knew_ her stuff. +For all Giselle knew right now, she could have been having a humongous orgasm, but she couldn't discern it in the slightest, because her brain no longer worked. She started feeling as if it were all a great big nightmarish O.O.B.E., watching herself from outside, in slow motion. Eventually, she was going numb, and the sounds she was making were no longer human. +This horrifically hellish latest span of torturous teasing and vindictive vellication could have been lasting a few minutes, it could have been lasting two hours. There was no way to tell. Giselle was on the verge of turning purple. And she was no longer laughing. She was hacking, wheezing and spitting. If she could only speak, she had a pretty good idea of what she would scream right now. +""OKAY!! GODDAMMIT, OKAY, MADAME!! MISSION A-FREAKING-CCOMPLISHED!! I'M _CRAZY!!_ "" +The situation had gone way too far beyond ridiculous. Giselle was past the point of having lost her mind. Her body was all but vibrating like she was being electrocuted. +But finally...at some indefinite, indeterminable later point, _finally_... +...It was over. +When she could merely begin to catch her breath back, Giselle's face was already buried in tears. Her head was spinning, and her eyes would need a moment to correctly reorient themselves. Sandra's voice echoed in her ears. +""Hooray!"" she cheered. ""Let's give a nice big hand to our volunteer, Miss Violet Daniels, and our model, Miss Giselle Boudreaux!"" +The audience about blew up in applause. Several of them proceeded to give standing ovations. +Giselle tried to collect her bearings and assess what was going on. She was no longer being tormented. It looked as if the evening's entertainment had at last come to an end. It seemed surreal, almost as if, ... _Did that really all just happen?_ Part of her felt a little wounded inside that the crowd apparently didn't care if she _died_ down here, but just wanted to see her being inexorably tortured. Of course, the presentation of the evening _was_ how to tickle a girl insane, and she had been aware of that beforehand, but...she guessed this just seemed like it'd be a bit more fun in her mind. Instead, she was dizzied, red in the face, cried out, and now had a headache. +""And _that_ , my friends, is how you tickle a woman crazy!"" +Sandra gave Violet permission to return to her seat, and began untying Giselle. Giselle wasn't totally sure how to react now that she was actually being released. Part of her felt like hauling off and serving Sandy up a hearty knuckle sandwich, right in the nose, knocking her out cold, tying _her_ up and giving her a taste of her own medicine. But most of her was so happy to be freed from this prison of torture, she wanted to hug her instead. Besides, with her lingering vertigo, she had a much better chance of getting a hug than a hit. But she didn't think she even had the leftover energy to achieve this. When Sandy finally let her out of the ropes and removed the drenched blindfold from her face, she collapsed on the desk lengthwise and began recuping on her back. +""Let's let our dear model recover a bit, shall we?"" suggested Sandy. ""Don't fret, she'll be all right. When you've put as many folks through this particular treatment as I have, you eventually sense when you're going to go too far, and when and if your victim will end up physically harmed or damaged by it. A little rest, a nice glass of water, some nourishment, she'll be good as new. Promise. +""In the meantime, shall we open up to a little Q and A? I'll be delighted to answer any questions you may have that are pertinent to tonight's subject material."" She looked around for curious hands, and spotted one. ""Yes?"" +A young man in the sixth row lowered his hand. ""What if someone's not ticklish enough to be driven crazy by this?"" he asked. +""Well, everyone's got a little 'ticklish' to them,"" said Sandy. ""Hypothetically speaking, most people are going to be ticklish enough in one locale or another, but certainly there are exceptions. My advice is to track down that bit of ticklish in your victim, threaten her—or him—with _authority_ , for intimidation—exploit it for all it's worth and see what kind of results you can whip up. +""Remember, just the threat or idea of being tickled is automatically pretty scary for most of us. And even if your victim isn't actually that ticklish her—or him—self, just the power of suggestion alone can be a pretty effective tool in instilling fear. Look at it psychologically. We're taught from an early age that innocent tickling is just playful fun, but shortly past that can get really out of hand. And we all love to laugh, but we don't always enjoy being _forced_ to laugh, or...being forced to behave in _any_ given way. It's pretty logical; as adults, outside of work, we don't usually love or appreciate being told what to do. Or what to feel, you see? That in mind, seeing an evil smile and those 'I'm-gonna-GETcha' fingers coming their way usually plays pretty well in your favor. You may still encounter someone who knows proof-positive they're not very ticklish, and won't be scared by it. And if you can't achieve results with them...you can still always bring them _my_ way, if you see fit; I _love_ a good challenge. Does that answer your question?"" +The sixth-row young man nodded affirmatively. Sandra solicited for other questions, and took one from someone in the upper left. +""How did you get started in the tickling business?"" this attendee wanted to know. +""Ah, well, together with my husband Lou. He's a cinematographer, so we turned one of the rooms in our home into a studio and started making all kinds of fetish videos, not just tickling-related. We've got a whole range of BDSM covered. We call it The Fetish Buffet. We performed in them just by ourselves some years ago, then we started getting a collection of models onboard. We do just about anything bondage-related, but tickling remains one of our shared passions and deepest loves. It was even one of my favorite things in the world as a child, and back in my college sorority days, before he and I even met. Good times. Anyone else?"" +A person just about halfway back in the middle had the next question. +""Hi, Mrs. Burton. Do you personally prefer to tickle men or women more?"" +""Both,"" Sandra answered immediately and definitively. ""Both absolutely equally. My hubby and I are both bisexual, and we both love shooting and working with our male and female friends and models mutually. We don't discriminate in the slightest on basis of gender,"" she smiled. ""If you're bisexual, of course, men and women can both be exciting in their ways, and on different levels. So neither of us have a preference there. We also openly embrace the opportunity to work with individuals of different ethnicities and such, incidentally, and we do have to have a minimum age limit, which is 18, but anyone 18 and up is welcome to come work-slash-play with us."" She saw another hand go up and pointed. ""Yes?"" +""Do you obtain sexual arousal from tickling, or being tickled?"" came the next question. ""And if so, how much? Or to what degree?"" +""Oh, you bet your bottom,"" Sandy nodded. ""If you can get past the jumpy initial feelings of discomfort the idea alone may bring on, tickling can truly be one of the most sensual and delicious in all of the erotic arts. It helps for certain that I have and always have had a healthy, strong libido, yet just the concept turns me on in _major_ ways I can't even describe in words. From the rush-like feeling of quick aggressive contact running over you, to the knowledge that you can't help but laugh, especially in restraint, to the involuntary and thus wildly satisfying smiles playing about your faces, to that heavenly sound of gut laughter...yes indeed, my friends. Forgive me for being indelicate, but sometimes it's all I can do to keep from vanishing on the spot to quench my own desires."" +The audience knowingly laughed along and gave up some more applause at this declaration, highly able to relate. Someone down near the front on Sandra's left raised his hand. +""Can you achieve orgasm by being tickled alone, without any other form of stimulation?"" this guest asked. +""Do you mean can _I_ personally, or can anyone?"" +""Uh, well...both."" +""Ah. Well, for me, no. I'm too ticklish. Otherwise, it depends on the individual person. Some cannot—especially with particularly ticklish genitals, as the compulsion to laugh can get in the way and disturb the mounting arousal—but there are others certainly whose sensual attraction to the feeling of contact is _so vastly_ strong in the first place, they might laugh if caught off-guard, but their brains—aware that their bodies are being touched at all—have the power to psychologically override the need to laugh and activate and fire up the libido right away. Though usually in order for this to happen, the tickling needs to be more gentle and passionate. I find it an amazing sight to behold myself. Both on video and in person I've seen individuals—usually women—many women possess these _magic_ sizzle spots on their bodies and feet—brought to utter _moans_ of ecstasy by a feather, or a nail finding its tranquil way along her hot, revved-up body. If things go on this way long enough..."" She shook her head. ""... _Whew_...who _knows_ how far it can go. +""In fact, I _never_ disclose this information, but what with its germaneness to our subject of discussion..."" Sandra backed up behind the desk, removed one of her shoes and placed the heel of her bared foot on the surface, sole pointed to the audience. ""...I personally have a spot directly beneath the arch, on both of my feet, that when touched, the right way...makes me _totally_ , _MELT_. That's my weak point, right there. There's no other or better way to describe it than that: melted Sandra. But I must kindly ask you, my friends, not to use this information against me...or certain, uh...ad _dition_ al circumstances may ensue."" She winked, putting her shoe back on. +Another query arose. ""Speaking of, uh...orgasms..."" The crowd giggled. ""...Is it true that we're more ticklish after we come?"" +""Absolutely,"" Sandra grinned. ""Excellent question, thank you for bringing it up. What happens is, during arousal, the human body's heart speeds up to increase and hasten bloodflow. The blood rushes to our homologously functioning sex organs: the cock in men, and the clit in women. And then, as we know, the blood fills inside and inflates them to erection. Arousal continues on its way to climax...and I'm gonna speed this along in the interest in time, so long story short: bing-bang-boom, we come."" +The audience chuckled in amusement. +""So after the orgasm hits, the brain tells the blood to return to post one, if you will, but the nerve endings—which you'll recall, we went over those before..."" Sandra reactivated the laptop and quickly toggled back to the slide where she'd originally discussed this. ""...Here we go. The blood is flying back where it came from, but the nerve endings...kinda don't exactly get the message just yet. They're independent from the bloodflow in this respect, and hell, you just _came_ , for crying out loud,"" she chortled, ""So all those thousands and thousands of nerve endings are still gonna be _hyper_ sensitized for a short time. Has anyone here ever felt a little squeamy, or sensitive, about doing anything like snuggling with your playmate right after sex?"" +Several audience members nodded and raised hands. +""There you go. Same thing. Post-orgasm, we're usually sitting in our lovely afterglow for a while, and we want to decide on our own when to go on from there. So, often if someone or something touches us in the afterglow state, it can feel disturbing. And even a little skeevy. Some folks aren't bothered by this at all and _do_ want to keep cuddling after the big 'o,' but many don't. And even if you enjoy some cuddles after making love, you likely _won't_ highly enjoy some additional tickling. It's just not the ideal time. Make sense?"" +The audience responded affirmatively. +""Fantastic!"" Sandra clapped her hands. ""Anybody else?"" +She looked around a few seconds. That seemed to be it. ""No other questions?... +""...Well all righty then! Thank you so, so much again for coming this evening, ladies and gents, I certainly hope you enjoyed our presentation, and learned something new, and I wish you the best as you collect your wife or girlfriend or other lady companion, sweep her away into the realm of erotic kinkplay, put her on lockdown, and show her some fun tickle techniques!"" Sandy sent them off excitedly. ""Also, please feel free to visit Lou and myself online at The Fetish Buffet and share your own stories of ticklish bliss with us! For anyone who may be interested in modeling or participating in one of our shoots, we've got business cards just outside, by our presentation poster. I'm Sandra Burton, my friends, and how about one more hand for Sleeping Beauty here, our Parisian model this evening, Miss Giselle Boudreaux!"" +The crowd broke out in one last raucous burst of applause before getting their belongings together and starting to file out. Sandy could hear post-seminar discussion between the participants as they rose to exit, and she could detect high intrigue in the timbre of their voices, which she found enormously flattering and gratifying. +Not everyone departed right away. A few guests stuck around to chat briefly with Sandra one-on-one, or to shake her hand and tell her how much they enjoyed the seminar. A few even embraced her. +""Are you sure the Giselle girl there's gonna be okay, though?"" she was asked. +""Oh, I guarantee she'll be fine,"" promised Sandy, packing up her own presentation materials. ""We simply tuckered her right the heck out, so she's just taking a long nap right at the moment. Shucks, to be honest with you guys, I'd be surprised if she _didn't_ drop off after that insane workout."" She grinned warmly at them. ""I am so very happy you all came tonight. I hope I've given you some guidance to have some hot 'n' kinky fun with your ticklish female companions."" +She bade them farewell, packing it all in—save for the bedsheet over the desk, on which Giselle was still fast and sound asleep. +*** + **December 4th, 9:27 p.m.** +"" _Ohhhh_ ,"" groaned a weary, worn-out Giselle Boudreaux, slowly waking to life. She reached to stretch before noticing she was again strung down to the desk, this time lying still naked on her back. +""Qu—...que se...que se p—??"" she wondered out loud, pulling on the bonds once more holding her in place. She looked back and forth in panic at each of her lassoed wrists. ""Oh, _non_."" +When she heard the sounds the newly awoken surprised Giselle made, Sandra strolled back on over. +The auditorium was dark and deserted. Everyone had departed a short while ago. When she knew Giselle could hear her, Sandra smiled, intentionally pacing her footsteps towards her... +...Making them extra slow...and extra audible. +Hearing the footsteps, Giselle whimpered in alarm, whipping her gaze around. She thought she remembered where she was and what had happened this evening, but she was nonetheless scared. +""Am...am I dreaming?"" she asked cautiously. +The haunting voice came, low and ominous. +""I'm afraid not, dearest Giselle."" +A chill went through her curvaceous nude body. +""But...but-but-but..."" +""There's no one else here anymore, Giselle. +""It's just _you_... _and me_."" +Giselle began to tremble. +""M-M-Madame..."" she stammered, ""Please no more tickling, I beg you. Please please please please!"" +Sandra shook her head, smirking down at her. +""No more tickling, Giselle. Don't worry."" +""Oh, sank you, Madame...but...zen, why am I still tied like zis?"" +Sandy displayed the object she'd been holding behind her back. Though Giselle couldn't quite make it out in the darkness, it was... +...A Hitachi wand. +""Because I don't want you getting overwhelmed on me, and splitting in the middle of our last activity this evening—also the reward I'll be giving you for the wonderful performance you gave tonight. Which too, incidentally, is the reason you remain nude just now."" +Giselle suddenly began feeling very nervous again. +""Um...wh-what _is_ ze last activity of zis evening?"" +Sandra Burton believed that sometimes it was better to show than to tell. She answered this question nonverbally, activating the Hitachi wand as she lowered it to Giselle's innocent, unsuspecting vagina. +Giselle's eyes and mouth popped open as her head lolled back with a gasp. _This_ she had not been expecting. +""OH mon DIEU!"" she breathed half-audibly as an initial rush of Hitachi- signature pleasure raced through her pussy to her extremities and back again. ""Sacre-foutu- _bleu!_ "" +Sandy laughed. ""I know what you just said, and I'm taking it as the compliment it is, dolly,"" she grinned down at her wickedly. +Abruptly, Giselle was exceedingly glad Sandra had once more restrained her down on the desk. Otherwise, she logically thought, an obviously potent, mindspinning vibrator device applied to her pussy, she could very well shoot straight through the ceiling. +""Oh, Madame, zis feels _AMAZING!_ "" Giselle rejoiced. +Sandra chuckled self-satisfactorily. ""You're welcome, honey."" +""OHHHHH I never feel anysing like zis in my _life!_ "" +""You ready to take it to the next level?"" +""Zere is more levels??"" +Again, Sandy answered her wordlessly, flipping the vibrator up to setting two. +"" _OOOOOOOHLAAALAAAAAA!_ "" Giselle involuntarily exulted. ""Oh, it feels divine!"" +""Damn right it does,"" Sandy nodded. "" _Now_ , try _this_ on for size."" +Keeping the Hitachi on her, Sandra flipped one leg up on the desk overlapping Giselle's, leaned down and meshed their lips. +""Mmmmmm..."" Giselle groaned through the fiery kiss Sandra laid upon her, her tits heaving, her nipples and clit stiffening with hot, burning love. Giselle tugged and yanked on the bonds, desperately desiring to grab Sandy's body and pull her on top of herself, but yet the state of forced helplessness in which Sandra had placed her, to do with her as she would, too turned Giselle on like mad. She never knew how much she passionately _loved_ to be tied down, unable to hinder the treatments subsequently bestowed upon her. This realization combined with the sensations of the Hitachi, Sandra's lips on hers and their bodies melting together tripled the intensity of the erotic sizzle crackling through her. +Their lips pulled apart. ""OH!"" exclaimed Giselle, groping for breath. ""Madame, it feels _so good_..."" +Sandy, unbeknownst to Giselle, had climbed on top of her, aligned their legs and was now sharing the Hitachi's powerful force. +"" _Ohhhhhh_... _you're telling_ me,"" Sandra remarked deeply, planting hot kisses in a small heart-shaped pattern around Giselle's face. The French girl's eyes fluttered open to see the BDSMpress' sexy eyes peering down into hers. +"" _Have you ever been seduced by an older woman before, sweetie?_ "" +Giselle moved her breath quickly to answer. +"" _Non, Madame, but I_ like _it_."" +"" _Have you ever had your pussy vibed like this?_ "" +Just hearing Sandy whisper the word ""pussy"" to her splattered a bit of premature come from inside her. +"" _Non, Madame_ ,"" she innocently repeated. +Sandra's smile become more devilishly sexy in the dense darkness. Giselle saw the glint of her now visible pearly whites. Sandy tended to have this intimidating, almost even frightening effect of sexual power over her seductees, and Giselle was no exception. She was starting to find herself astonishingly aroused by this dominating, scary but ir _resist_ ibly hot elder woman daunting over her. She was in this moment very much in touch with her submissive side. +And she _adored_ it. +Sandra's leer was so devastating, she made Giselle want to show her immense appreciation with an ex _plosive_ orgasm. Or seven. And Sandra must have sensed it, Giselle calculated. The next she did was to laugh triumphantly and taunt her. +"" _You're mine, Giselle. You know it, and I know it._ Surrender _. I_ force _you to succumb to me. I_ own _you_."" +""AAAAAAHHHH!...OUI OUI, MADAME!"" Giselle obediently wailed. ""I need your love! I need your sex! I need _you!_ "" +"" _Yesssss_..."" Sandra purred. "" _Say my name_."" +""Madame Sandra...I need you, Madame Sandra!"" +"" _MMMMM, yes!_ "" Sandy celebrated, also getting off on turning the girl into her sex slave. "" _Tell me who's your Mistress!_ "" +""You are, Madame Sandra! You are my Mistress!"" +""That's right, Mademoiselle Giselle,"" Sandra replied, raising her voice and the wand level. +""Now _COME_ FOR ME!"" +Giselle lost her faculties. Her fists clenched, turning her knuckles snow- white. Her toes curled over each other. Her eyes pinched shut extra tight, grimacing and screaming in unbearable passion as Sandy indeed proceeded to release her dam and force the climax of nine lifetimes upon her. There was no turning back from this. She couldn't go home again after this momentous evening. +"" _Come_ for me! _Come_ for Madame Sandra, ma petite fille slave! +"" _NOW!!_ "" +Giselle did as she was told. +And erupted. +The paramount scream ripped from her bowels and shook the building, echoing through the rafters and rumbling up through the earth outside. Incomparable surges of forced ecstasy ran her through. All of a sudden, she could no longer pull or struggle with the bonds. She could merely crane her neck, arch her back and give in to Madame Sandra's unconquerable whims. Giselle relinquished her ultimate orgasm to The Erotic Goddess as she climbed atop her, ravaging her young flesh with her teeth, her tongue, her fingernails. Sandra held on to the vibrator between them, granting herself a healthy dose of its powers as well, keeping it in place with her right hand, enhancing Giselle's upper body tantalization with her left. Sandy's pussy's moisture leaked through her panties and mingled with Giselle's. They felt the warmth collect on one another's thighs. +Giselle's unparalleled orgasm was about to release her back into her own skin and liable to just put her right back to sleep again, but Sandra's was just getting underway. Similar superhuman sounds emanated from Sandra, as she also bowed to the sheer mastery of the Hitachi. She had much more experience than Giselle with anything remotely sexual, but that did not dull the blazing intensity of the experience for her in the slightest. Just the contrary; she performed only more and more strongly with each and every stand. She buried her face in Giselle's generous bosoms and sank her teeth to devour the tasty flesh. +Giselle felt Sandy's hair flow over her, swishing and tickling her chin, shoulders and underarms, but she was far too wiped to be ticklish at all now whatsoever. Now if Sandra wished to bring her back for another tickling demonstration, she knew what to do beforehand. She delighted in the world- rocking sounds of Sandy self-inducing her own monstrous orgasm. It made her feel close to this lady, as if they were now ""Hitachi buddies."" Sort of like bosom buddies, just in a different location. +At last, the flames too died down on Sandra until only smoke rose off the embers. She summoned the hand-to-mind coordination to turn off the Hitachi and rested inertly on top of Giselle momentarily. She found herself surprised by this young girl's raw charisma and the strength and resilience in her to withstand not only a night of erotic tickle torture, but as well one of the most hellacious, and supreme climaxes she had ever or would ever undergo in her time on Earth. She and Lou would have to invite this girl to join them for more escapades in their web of sex games. The potential of fun they could have playing together was limitless. +When having recovered enough stamina, Sandra forced herself up and off of Giselle, and finally untied her. She fetched a towel for them to dry themselves off, and Giselle found and put back on the clothing she had taken off backstage in the auditorium, replaced by only the robe and slippers at the opening of the seminar. Sandra had transported them both together in her car from her and Lou's home, so that was their destination upon leaving the lecture hall themselves, rendering it now entirely devoid of visitors. +""So, Giselle, did you have fun this evening?"" she asked on the way home. +""Oh, I did, Madame. I really did. I had a _wonderful_ time!"" +Sandra smiled. She realized the younger girl was likely trying to be merely polite, respecting that Sandy was her elder, but deep down, she secretly liked being called ma'am, or Mrs.—or in Giselle's case, Madame. Perhaps a bit unusual for a woman in her late 40s, but she actually to this day enjoyed growing still older. True, some aspects she could do without, but she didn't fight her age—she accepted and welcomed it every step of the way, from the grayness to the laugh lines—and aged like a fine, fine wine, only more exquisite and delightfully drinkable every year. +And then there was the facet of kinkiness the age dynamic brought into the equation. She loved her husband Lou of her own age and wouldn't trade him for the world, but she and Lou were true blue swingers, and Sandra wouldn't have it any other way. She too adored having playmates, particularly younger ones. The wider the age gap, the more of a turn-on it became. Younger individuals, she found, for the most part, were fascinated by the wisdom, experience and acquired brilliance of a mature, aging siren such as herself, which was tremendously flattering. She likened the idea of May-December intimacies with the portrait of herself as a wise old sage, a teacher who could enlighten on such knowledge available nowhere else. And there was never a shortage of students. And this, of course, when these roles were taken to the literal, was where the kinky factor entered—in the form of roleplaying. +As for Giselle, she'd been completely honest with Sandra about what a terrific evening she'd had with her. Giselle may too have been a bisexual nude model—now also a fetish model—but she wasn't lying when Sandy asked her if she'd ever been with an older lady before. She hadn't, and the realization that the very situation was imminent intrigued her like an intoxicating perfume scent. Madame Sandra Burton carried about her a presence and an aura the likes of which Giselle didn't know before. The woman _was_ fascinating, there was no question about that. And what a gauntlet of feelings and reactions she'd evoked from her this evening: fear, anxiety, excitement, arousal, dyspnea, dizziness, surreality, wild hypersensitivity... +That reminded her. ""Eh, Madame Sandra, I like to apologize, for I said I hated you, while you and ze other girl tickle me."" +Sandy smiled. ""Oh, that's perfectly all right, Giselle. Believe me, I've been presented with far worse and harsher words than that,"" she chuckled. ""Don't worry about a thing, you're certainly forgiven."" +""Oh, sank you. I realize I do not hate you at all. I very very much _like_ you."" +""Well, thank _you_ , my friend! I like you as well. So...you enjoyed working with me tonight?"" +""Oh, yes! Yes, it was lots and lots of fun."" +""Do you think you might like to come back and meet my husband Lou, and work...and/or play, with us again?"" +""Oh, I sink I would enjoy zat a great deal, Madame Sandra. What can I do wis you?"" +Sandra grinned her naughty wicked grin, dozens of ideas automatically swirling through her devious mind. +""Oh... +""I'm sure we could figure _something_ out..."" + _Hee hee hee hee hee_..." +523,How to Tie a Catspaw Lite Cuff,Homburg,How To,2008-02-25,2008-02-25,2022-01-04 08:34:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-tie-a-catspaw-lite-cuff,"Step-by-step guide to tying a simple, useful rope cuff.","['Bdsm Advice', 'Bdsm How-To', 'Bondage', 'Rope']",3.2,"Time for a quick tutorial. I mentioned the Catspaw Lite cuff in a post on the Ropework Photos thread in the BDSM Cafe, and I've used it here and there since. Like I said in that post, the original Catspaw cuff is a cool one, but it has a few too many wraps for my taste, and too many steps. I was playing around with the concept and came up with a cuff that I like for lower security uses. +This one has not yet shown any propensity for tightening, but it's not a cuff that I've used to hold any sort of weight, so take it with a grain of salt. It is not by any means escape proof, and an eel will probably get out of it. +(NOTE: ""eel"" is a term used for a person that likes to squirm and wriggle, and will attempt to escape a tie.) +This cuff works best when there is some tension on the lead. The bottom line here is that it is intended as a comfortable cuff which can be quickly applied and tied to a hard point, such as the bedpost or whatnot. +So here we go: +1) +First step is to find the middle of you rope and fold it in half. This produces a ""bight"", which is the turn you just made in the rope. There is also the 'working end', which is the two loose bits on the other end. +\---- +2) +Wrap that loop round the column you want to secure, and tuck the working end through the bight. Pull taut. This produces a Larkshead. +You have just learned the primary 'knot' used in the Japanese-inspired style of rope bondage. And limbs are referred to as columns. Legs, arms, torsos, whatever, they're all columns. +Note - don't snug this down tight. You will be passing lines under this bight. You should be able to slide two fingers under the wraps at any given point. You should follow the two-finger rule with bondage in general, as this will help you avoid cutting off circulation, nerve damage, etc. Remember, don't break your toys! This includes the human ones. +\---- 3) +Wrap the working ends back around the column in the opposite direction, making sure to lay the lines flat and outside the original lines. +Note - You want your wraps to lay flat as it will better support the limb, and prevent pressure points in the tie. It will also help to prevent pinch bruising if the cuff is used under tension. +\---- +4) +You'll notice that the lines you just laid form two more bights. Tuck each working end into these bights, making sure to keep all of your lines flat and parallel. +\---- +5) +Take your working leads and tuck them under the existing lines, then again through the initial bight that you formed in the first place. This will cause your working ends to be side-by-side again. +\---- +6) +Run the working ends to the outside of each side, and wrap them under and through the initial bight again. This is basically just wrapping these lines around the same part once more. +Pull taut and you are done. You'll notice that this is my own wrist here. This cuff can be tied one handed, and I've done so on myself many times while testing it and playing with it. +As I said before, I'm still testing this, so don't trust it to bear weight. Frankly, the wrist and ankles should never be trusted to bear weight any way. They're too easily damaged, but a cuff like this is great for keeping a limb in a given spot. +It works without knots because of how the wraps are set and how many times the various larksheads are cinched and secured. +And, obviously, you want to use more rope than this. This is a piece of acid green MFP from Rainbow Rope that they gave me when I bought all but this off the spool. It's 6mm rope, same as 1/4"" and this length is probably 4ft long, so you'll need 4ft for the cuff alone. Whatever you have left can be used to tie the cuff to something stable. +If you are looking for rope, the easiest suggestion is to hit your local hardware store and buy 1/4"" or 5/8"" nylon solid braid off the spool, cut to your length of choice. Please make sure it is off the spool. Spooled nylon rope is still nylon/poly blend, but has higher nylon content. This means it will be softer and tie better. +NOTE: For[better pictures of this cuff](http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=25945892&postcount=1067), as well as a more[secure version](http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=25947407&postcount=1077) of it, visit the[Ropework Photos](http://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?t=543956) thread in the BDSM Cafe here on Lit.

Since the time I can remember, I always had a dog. Actually, they weren't my dogs but my brothers' dogs. Yet, whether they were my brothers' dogs or deemed my dogs, all their dogs were more loyal and loved me more than they were loyal and loved them. +Maybe because my brothers were so big and always so loud was the reason why the dogs cowered, snarled, growled, and even bit them. With them always teasing the dogs and being mean to the dogs, the dogs never came to them when they called them. Instead they'd come to me and shake by my legs. +The dogs were protective of me and hostile towards them. Perhaps because my brothers were bad men was the reason why they didn't like them. Dogs know. They can sense the good and the evil in people. Dogs are one of the few animals that make eye contact. +Obviously, the dogs feared my brothers and loved me. I was the one who fed the dogs, walked the dogs, played with the dogs, and bathe the dogs. They never talked to the dogs in the way that I talked to the dogs. The even allowed me to dress them for the holidays. Other to just say that they had a dog, with them not caring for the dog, I don't know why they even had a dog. They would have been better off if they had a dragon. +* * * * * +Then, when I was married, being that we couldn't have children, a long story that started with my ex having a vasectomy behind my back just before we were married and not telling me, we had a dog instead.

He'd do all of the normal dog things, such as sit, stay, fetch, and no barking but he'd never walk beside me or behind me in the way that an obediently submissive dog should. +Being that my ex paid for the dog, five hundred dollars, a lot for a Rat terrier when most Rat terriers sell for one hundred and fifty dollars, he got the dog when we split. Good luck in walking and exercising that dog when he never did. I imagined Polo being cooped up all day without even going out to pee. I hope he hired a dog walker. I hope he came home to walk the dog. +He never loved that dog in the way that I loved that dog. He should have given me the dog. Yet, with me being homeless for five months, I would have been forced to put the dog in the animal shelter. I miss the dog and I miss having a dog but I can't. The woman who allows me to live in her spare bedroom is not only afraid of dogs but also is allergic to dogs. +* * * * * +A special dog, Polo's grandfather was a champion. I named him Polo because he looked like a dog that would be in a Ralph Lauren magazine ad. After we split, because my ex was Italian and because the dog had Italian Greyhound in him, he changed the dog's name from Polo to Carmine. +Carmine? What the Hell kind of name is that for a dog? You can't do that to a dog. You can't change a dog's name after he's been called Polo since the time he was a puppy. Like him going by the name of Vinnie instead of Bob, it's as if the dog worked undercover too. +I bought my ex a tee shirt as a Christmas gift that read, ""You don't know me."" In small print, it had Witness Protection underneath it but he didn't think that was funny. +""What's wrong with you? I'm an undercover cop. I can't wear this,"" he said throwing my gift in my face. +Quick to rile, he was such an asshole sometimes. He could have worn it around the house, beneath his shirt, or even to bed before sticking it in a drawer never to be worn again. He didn't have to throw it in my face. +Anyway, I named my dog Polo because, at the time I was the business manager for a famous modeling agency in Boston and Ralph Lauren was one of our clients. If anything, looking very chic with his tri-colored coat, Polo looked like a dog that Ralph Lauren would own. With him having a chocolate brown back and hind quarters, a white underside with white legs, and tan markings over his eyes. For the first three years we owned him, he had green eyes, a pink nose, and pink paws. With his unique coloration, he looked like a fashion dog. +* * * * * +Being that one of the dogs my brothers had when I was a kid was a Manchester terrier, a dog very much like a Rat terrier, I was already familiar with the Rat terrier breed. A pedigree dog that's recognized by the AKC, American Kennel Club and the UKC, United Kennel Club, the closest dog to a mutt, the Rat terrier is created from a Manchester terrier, a Whippet, and an Italian Greyhound. A narrow, long legged dog, they are as sleek as they are fast and majestic. Full of themselves, they hold their head up high and prance when they walk. A healthy dog, they don't have the genetic, medical conditions with ear and eye problems that many small dogs have. +Because of their non-stop energy they are the perfect breed for obstacle training. Only with me working all day while caring for the house and for my husband, I didn't have time to take the dog to obstacle training and to obstacle meets too. Giving him a job to do, definitely, Polo would have been good at it. Matter of fact, when talking to her over the phone, the breeder refused to sell us the dog because we lived in the city. +In November 2004, we made the trip to Brattleboro Vermont to convince her to sell us the dog and to pick up the dog after seeing him online. To me, Vermont is God's country. A day trip vacation away from the big city, it's a 200 mile round trip. A gorgeous ride with the trees so very colorful, whenever driving through Vermont, we saw more cows than people. I always wished I could live there in an A frame house decorated with gingerbread. +Just twelve weeks old, we watched Polo play with his brothers and sister before taking him home. Already housebroken and trained not to beg, the breeder was much better at training the dog in the twelve weeks she had him than we were in the years we owned him. She lived high atop a scenic hill where she bred horses too. I envied her life of raising dogs and riding horses. Even though her life was filled with chores and hard work, her life was much simpler than mine. +""These dogs are runners. This dog needs to run,"" she said. ""You can't keep him cooped up in an apartment or a house all day. He'll be bored and will tear your house apart."" +We assured her that we were both physically fit and would walk him every day. She agreed to selling us the dog as long as we promised to bring the dog back to her should we change our minds and no longer want the dog. Unless they were forced to because of health issues or divorce, I don't know how anyone can return and/or part with a dog. +""It would break my heart to see this dog in a dog pound,"" she said. +Well, because my ex worked late night, 12 hour shifts as an undercover police officer and sometimes didn't make it home for days, he slept when not working. I walked that dog six miles every day and that wasn't nearly enough. I was losing weight and he was gaining muscle mass. Then, I found the dog park. +""Praise the Lord. Thank you Jesus."" +Boy could that dog run. Fortunately, he always came back when I called him with just a whistle. I swear, when he ran back to me with his tongue hanging out of his mouth, he looked like he was smiling. He looked so very happy. Then, we'd do it all over again and again. He'd run until he was just a dot on the landscape and then I'd whistle for him. With his ears pinned back to his head, his sleek body, and all four legs off the ground, he looked like a bullet fired out of a gun. +Because of his barrel chest and long legs, by far, he was the fastest dog at the dog park. He had four speeds, loping, galloping, wicked fast, and turbo charged fast with him flat out and all of his legs off the ground and extended in the air at the same time. He loved being chased and would wear out any dog that tried to catch him. Even a Greyhound couldn't catch him. Easily out maneuvering him, with the Greyhound's long strides, Polo could stop turn, corner, and jump while the Greyhound was still running right by him. +""Oh, my God. Thank God you're here with Polo,"" said the owners of the dogs that played chase with my dog. ""My dog slept for three days after playing with your dog."" +I looked at him and smiled while sometimes wishing I had a slug of a dog like their dog instead of a Rat terrier. +""Yeah, well, Polo doesn't sleep. He wants to play as soon as I bring him home. If I kept him here all day long, he'd be happy,"" I said. +* * * * * +It wasn't until three Pit Bulls, really not good dogs to have unleashed at a dog park, chased him and cornered him. Easily he could have outrun the dogs but for some strange reason he stopped. I thought it was the end for my four legged friend but once cornered, he turned on the Pit Bulls. I couldn't believe my eyes when I finally caught up with the four dogs stopped behind some bushes. With the Pit Bulls just standing there at bay, Polo was growling and snarling. My cute, little Rat terrier turned into a demon dog. +My twenty pound Rat terrier even bit one of the Pit Bulls in the ear. Taking that as my opportunity, not the brightest thing to do but better they bite me than kill my dog, I pulled Pit Bulls away from him by their collars. After yelling at the owners to call their dogs and get their dogs when they didn't come, even their owners were afraid to get their own dogs. +We were lucky that they were pet Pit Bulls and not fighting Pit Bulls. When they were chasing him, they turned into a pack, and the Pit Bulls immediately went into the red zone. They didn't back off until Polo stood his ground. Just one bite of those much bigger dogs and he would have been gone. +Once my dog was safe and the Pit Bulls were leashed, I turned to the Pit Bull dog owners. I had quite the temper back then. More of a rage I discovered after being diagnosed with post-traumatic stress after all that's happened to me, I was ready to hurt someone. +""Either you leave with your dogs now or after I'll kill your dogs,"" I said reaching into my handbag on the pretense that I had a gun, ""I'll shoot you."" +They looked at me as if I was the crazy one. Thinking that my dog was about to die, I was crazy with fright. They left and I never saw them or their dogs again. +* * * * * +My good natured, fun loving dog changed after that near death experience. He was no longer the same dog. In the way that I had a temper, he had a temper too. No longer able to take him to the dog park, instead of playing with dogs at the dog park, he attacked dogs, especially any dog that remotely resembled a Pit Bull. With me no longer letting him off leash, he barked, growled, and snarled at Boxers, Bull Dogs, Pugs, and whatever mixed breed had Pit Bull in them. +As if he was now the pack leader and I was his bitch, he wouldn't walk with me but instead pulled at the leash. He wanted to lead while having me follow. Before he was killed by a larger and more aggressive dog, I stopped going to the dog park and started doing more research on Rat terriers, especially on how to train them. With Rat terriers used in the circus riding elephants and horses, how hard could they be to train? I soon would know how difficult it was to train any terrier, called terriers for a reason, because they are such terrors. +It wasn't until I was watching a dog show on television where they named all the dogs and what they did that I got more of a glimpse into the inherent personality of a Rat terrier. When all of the other dogs were attack dogs, detection dogs, guard dogs, guide dogs, hearing dogs, herding dogs, hunting dogs, pet dogs, police dogs, search and rescue dogs, service dogs, sled dogs, sporting dogs, therapy dogs, and working dogs, seemingly all dogs had a job to do. Then, they listed two specific breeds, the Jack Russell terrier and the Rat terrier. I was shocked when the announcer said that they were natural born killers. +""Natural born killers? Oh, my God, my pet dog is a serial killer. I have a killer in my apartment."" +It's true. One Rat terrier killed 2,500 rats on a farm in England in a seven hour period. Aptly named, the Rat terrier holds the record for killing the most rats. Fortunately for me and perhaps unfortunately for my dog, something for him to do, we didn't have any rats for him to kill where we lived in Boston. There are plenty of rats in Boston but not in the apartment where we lived. He did enjoy chasing squirrels up trees and stalking birds, mostly pigeons. He would have made for a good hunting dog, so long as he was trained not to eat his prey. +""Eww, gross."" +* * * * * +Perhaps because walking this dog six miles a day, every day, wasn't enough exercise, I'd take him out in the backyard to throw tennis balls for him to chance. Because we lived behind a tennis court, we always had a collection of errant tennis balls in our backyard. We had a box of more than 100 tennis balls. It took me throwing and picking up three, full boxes of tennis balls before this dog stopped fetching. +My God, my arm was tired before he was. I'd throw the ball as far and as high up in the air as I could. We had a big backyard, and he'd run before leaping in the air to catch the ball in his mouth after the ball hit the ground and bounced high up. Wow! My breeder was right about the obstacle training. He could leap as high as he could run fast. +Yet, it wasn't until I not only walked him but played tennis ball that he started walking with me without pulling me. Making this dog tired by giving him enough exercise was the key to me training him and him obeying me. This dog wanted to be the pack leader but after watching enough Cesar Millan videos and buying and reading his book, I wasn't about to allow this dog to assume the pack leader role from me. +""Uh, uh, no way. This little dog would never be the boss of me."" +Still, even after walking him and playing tennis ball with him, this dog didn't get tired in the way that other dogs did. This dog didn't sleep in the way that normal dogs did. The frigging dog never slept. Getting the idea from Cesar, I started walking him with a weight vest, first with 2 ½ pound weights on each side of him, then with 5 pound weights on each side of him, finally barely taking the edge off with 10 pound weights on each side of him. +""Amazing."" +In researching the dog, I found a Rat terrier refrigerator magnet, Rat terrier property laws which I immediately bought and put it on my refrigerator to remind me what I was dealing with in owning a Rat terrier. This, of course, applies to most dogs. +Rat Terrier Property Laws +If I like it, it's mine. +If it's in my mouth, it's mine. +If I had it a little while ago, it's mine. +If I can take it from you, it's mine. +If it just looks like it's mine, it's mine. +If I saw it first, it's mine. +If it's edible, it's mine. +If I chew something up, all the pieces are still mine. +If I break it, it's yours. +If it's mine, it will never be yours. +If I get tired of it, it's yours. +If I want it back, it's mine. +The best way to train a Rat terrier applies to any dog. The best way to train a dog is to follow Cesar Millan, the dog whisperer, in training your dog. You must be the pack leader and not your dog. You mustn't allow your dog to control or dominate you. +When you take your dog for a walk, don't ask him or her if he or she wants to go for a walk. That will only excite them. The dog must be calm and submissive to obey. When you walk out your front door with your dog, walk out of the door before your dog. The pack leader always goes first. +When the dog wants to play and brings you a toy, don't play with him. Wait until he abandons the toy. Then, you can play with him. Playing must be your idea and not his idea. You control the dog. The dog doesn't control you. +When he gets in the red zone, grab him by the back of his collar, pick him up, and put him down on his side. Now hold the dog there until you see him forget what he was so crazy about. It only takes the dog a minute or two before returning back to normal. Every time he does that and every time I put him down, we have the same ritual. +""Are you sorry?"" +Immediately, he comes over to me to lick me while I pat him before giving him a cookie. Now that I think about it, he's the one who has me trained. +THE END +Please give me the support of your vote." +525,How to Unveil Yourself to Your Love,Selena_Kitt,How To,2006-03-27,2006-03-27,2022-01-04 08:34:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-unveil-yourself-to-your-love,Tap into your natural feminine ability to reveal yourself.,"['Dancing', 'Exotic Dancing', 'Sexy Dancing', 'Stripping', 'Unveiling']",4.61,"It is a totally natural masculine desire to watch the feminine unveil herself. How do you think those strip clubs keep in business? If you've never been into one (I haven't either, although I admit, I'm curious—one of these days!) it doesn't matter, because you already know how to unveil your feminine mystery to your lover! You don't need to know how to dance, and you don't need a video to teach you, and you don't need to watch a woman strip in order to know how to do it for your lover. It is an innate, unique gift that the feminine can give, and with just a few simple ideas, and more importantly, a bolster to your culturally-shaken self-confidence, I know you will be off and running, and your lover will be hot and panting! +Our society has taught us that scarcity is the norm, that we never have enough, that we never _are_ enough. This is a false belief that we have been fed, and that we continue to feed ourselves. The truth is that we are abundantly, naturally beautiful, sexy and sensual! The scary part is believing it, you say? Well, I have scarier news—you have to act on it first, before you start believing. In other words, you have to face whatever fears and issues about your body or your feminine nature that may have been imparted onto you, release them, and let yourself go—you may really surprise yourself, and your lover, if you do! + **The Masculine Perspective** +To him, you are already a goddess. The feminine is pure light, drawing his eye, making his heart race. The masculine loves to be tempted (remember Eve and that apple?) and believe it or not, he doesn't necessarily want to walk in and see you naked and splayed out for him (although sometimes that isn't a bad thing)—a deeper part of him wants to see you unveil yourself. He wants to watch you opening, like a flower. +The feminine likes the straightforward direction of the masculine, and so often doesn't understand what the draw of the ""tease"" is, in ""striptease."" Believe me when I tell you that the masculine doesn't only like it—he needs it, and he absolutely thrives on it. If you want your man to respond, lead him into temptation. (And you won't leave him dangling there—but we'll get to that later!) +Unveiling yourself to him is a process. This isn't a quick trip, it's a long and lingering journey. You don't want to just drop all the veils all at once—figuratively (or literally) speaking. You are going to lead him along, tempt him with luscious curves a bit at a time, and then cover them back up. Whatever you choose to wear, (and we'll talk about costuming and clothes later, too) you will want to offer peeks, hints, a little bit at a time, working up to a fuller view. +If you want to add another dimension to the tease, create the ground rules just like they have in the strip clubs—he doesn't get to touch you. That ""rule"" isn't just for legalities' sake, or just for the safety of the girls in the clubs. It also creates an air of mystery and temptation, when you can touch him, but he can't touch you! + **Preparation** +First, you have to concern yourself about what to wear. You will probably want to spend some time in advance thinking about it, and most definitely cater to _his_ tastes. There are men who love fishnets but hate whalenets. There are men who adore white cotton panties, and men who think they're for old grannies. There are men who love latex, and men who can't stand it. If this is your first time doing this, then try to tap into what flavors of the feminine he has a natural affinity for (you can experiment with other flavors of the feminine later!) You can play into his fantasies, if he has them—a school girl, a secretary, a teacher, a prostitute. +As you choose your clothes, remember that you are going to be unveiling yourself a little at a time. Layers are very important, and you may want to choose fabric that is mesh or sheer, or tight, or go with something like crotchless panties, which have natural openings. You're pretty safe with black, in terms of colors, or even red. If he doesn't like things on the ""slutty"" side, you might want to go with white. Mixing the ""whore"" and the ""angel"" dynamic is often popular, dark outer garments with white undergarments. Some men even like it the other way around, especially if your ""naughty"" black bra is showing through your sheer ""virginal"" white blouse. Some men even like the mixture of a sexy black bra, and white cotton panties. Remember to cater to his tastes. +You want clothing with lots and lots of buttons, or very looooong zippers. You want openings that take longer to get undone, to prolong the tease. Boots with long zippers are very sexy to take off, but they should have high heels. If you have a problem with high heels in general, try platforms, with wide heels. They give the same illusion but are easier to move in! +Don't wear pants, or even shorts—skirts are the way to go, but nothing below the knee. Mini skirts are great, if he likes the slutty look, because you can bend over and show off without having to lift your skirt. You should wear a front-hook bra, because it doesn't leave you awkwardly reaching back, trying to get yourself unhooked, and it offers so many more opportunities to tease him. Besides, there is nothing like breasts finally spilling out of a front- hook bra for devouring masculine eyes! +Sexy panties are a must, of course, that goes without saying, and something sheer or mesh is fine, but even if he likes thongs (and some men don't!) don't wear them for this—they are too immediately revealing. Stockings are very sexy, but unless he has a serious pantyhose fetish, I'd stay away from them. They are hard to remove in a very revealing way, and just don't look as sexy as thigh-highs, or garters and stockings. +Your last accessories should be jewelry and make-up. You shouldn't go overboard in the make-up department, but definitely do something to make your eyes stand out, to make your lips a little darker, your cheeks a little more rosy. Use a perfume that you know he likes and apply it liberally—you want to tempt all his senses. Jewelry shouldn't be big and clunky, but rather sparkly and shining. Anything that catches the light when it moves is a plus! Some of the sexiest jewelry are things like belly chains, anklets, arm bands, and nipple rings (you can buy ones that aren't pierced). + **Setting the Mood** +You don't want to strip in a dark room (even though part of you may think you should!) This is about revealing yourself to him, so you want to give him the best possible view. That means good lighting, so he can see every part of you as you unveil it. You don't need to shine a police-style spotlight on yourself or anything, just make sure you have enough lighting to see the details. +Now, stop hyperventilating! It doesn't matter what you think about yourself, what size you are, how old you are, none of that matters, because your lover is attracted to your body, and he won't be looking for all of the flaws that you see—he will be reveling in the perfection of your feminine form. Trust me on this—he thinks you're hot, and he wants to see you naked. This is your leap of faith, remember? +You are going to want to use a chair for him to sit in. A kitchen chair works great for this. Make sure you leave enough space so you can walk all the way around the chair he is sitting in (you don't want it back against a wall.) You will also want another chair (or a stool of some kind) for you to use, as well. +You want to choose good music, something sexy, with a beat. Something that you can dance to! Belly dancing music is actually good for this, but any rock/pop music with a good beat will work. Instrumental stuff is preferable, because it's less distracting. It all depends on the mood you're setting, of course, so choose accordingly. You can even burn your own CD of songs to strip to, or, if you can, program your CD player to play just the songs you want, if it gives you that option. +Now, when you're ready to do this, you should tell him, maybe over dinner, that you have something planned for later. But don't tell him what. Leave him hanging. Just give him a coy smile when he presses you about it. +When it's time, still in your every day clothes, tell him that you want him to go into the other room and strip down to his underwear or boxers or maybe just a pair of shorts, his choice. When he comes back, ask him to sit in the chair, and run down the rules with him. +The rules are up to you, but as I said, it can be more of a tease if he isn't allowed to touch you, so you can tell him that he should keep his hands at his sides unless you tell him differently, and that he can turn his head, but his back needs to stay against the chair. You can add the rule that he isn't allowed to talk, if you feel it will create more tension, or you might want to let him respond to you. Feel into your lover and decide what is best. Also remember that his responses may ignite you, or they may make you feel more self-conscious, so take that into account as well! +Then leave him there, telling him you'll be back in a minute, and go get dressed. + **The Unveiling** +Now is the moment of truth. Whatever you believe about your body, however ridiculous or self-conscious you may feel, you need to remember that you are a beautiful, feminine form, and to him, you are a goddess. If you relax into that thought, it will be easier to do this. Remember that this is a gift for him. He is excited by you, and he thinks you are incredibly sexy. Don't doubt that. You'll see it in his eyes when you come into the room, you just have to take that leap. Ready? Now, it's time to drive him crazy! +When you come into the room, walk like you know you're beautiful—because you are. Slow, sensuous, sexy, slinky, that's you. Start the music and circle his chair, and let him get a good look at your outfit, whatever it is you've chosen. Look into his eyes, see what you're doing to him. It will give you courage. +When you move behind his chair, lean over and brush up against him, let your hair fall over him, if it's long, and tell him that you are going to unveil yourself to him. Or tell him that you're going to dance for him. Or tell him you're going to strip for him. Go with what you know he wants to hear. +Come around to the front of his chair and turn around so your back is to him. Put your hands on your hips and give him a pouty, sultry look over your shoulder. Or blow him a kiss. Turn around to face him and bend over with your hands on your knees and let him get a glimpse down the V of your shirt. +You want to keep moving—it keeps his eyes drawn to you. They don't have to be large, grand movements, just make sure some part of you is moving, your hips swaying, your hands moving over your body. You can tease him by straddling one of his legs and rubbing yourself over his thigh for a moment. Don't stay too long, though, and if he touches you or reaches to touch you, remind him of the rules. +You want to give him visual access to every inch of you, so don't stay in one position long. Once in a while, switch it up and move behind him. Your heart will skip a beat when you see your lover straining his head to see what you're doing back there. Run a hand through his hair. Whisper something in his ear. ""Do you like what you see?"" Then move out in front of him again, still moving your hips to the music. +Remember that the whole world swings on a woman's hips. It is the seat and soul of your power. Rock your hips, roll them, sway them, shimmy them. You want to move as if you are the most graceful, sexiest woman in the world—and to him, you are! You may want to dance for him a while, moving back and forth, closer to him so you can touch him—and not with your hands, this time. Now, you want to work on touching him with different parts of your body—your crotch, your breasts, your ass. Rub up against him, wiggle, squirm, make soft sighs and noises when you do. You can touch his cock, too (it's fun to find out just how he's responding!) but remember to only do it briefly, just to tease him. +When you are ready to start unveiling yourself, begin slowly. Draw everything out. Don't just undo your entire button-down, tied-at-the-waist school girl blouse in one fell swoop! Unbutton a button, and then pull your shirt over a little, to let him see the swell of your breast. Do that on the other side, too. You little tease! That's just how to do it. Unbutton another button, and show him a little more flesh. And then a little more. Then move to another part of the body, change it up. +You can use the second chair or stool to put your leg up on, to bend over, to straddle. You can go all ""Flashdance"" on the chair (without all the water, of course.) You can sit on the chair and pretend to ride it. You can sit sideways and kick your legs up (make sure you have a good hold on the chair—falling during an unveiling is a bit embarrassing) and turn toward him to straddle it. Show him those panties under your skirt. Then bend forward and let him glimpse your breasts again. Lick your lips, wink at him, purse your mouth like you want to kiss him. If you think it's dramatic and over-the-top, do it anyway. It's what works! +You want to touch all those parts of yourself that you are slowly revealing, and you want to do it before they're unclothed, too. Cup your breasts and press them together, if you have enough flesh there to do that. If not, then just pinch your nipples through your bra, make them stand up for him. Rub your hands over the swell of your ass. Put your leg up on the chair, and slide one hand up, from ankle to thigh. You can pull up your skirt, and rub yourself through your panties, too. Show him all those places you like to be touched that feels good—and let him see and hear it on your face. Really give him a show! +Keep tempting him, giving him peeks. You can remove stockings and boots or shoes with your leg up on the chair for effect. When you have your shirt undone, don't just open it wide—turn around, and slip it off a shoulder at a time, looking back at him. Then, turn his way again, but hold your shirt over your bra and tease him some more before you toss it aside. +Remember to rub and touch any part of your body that you've just revealed. Unzip your skirt while you're facing him (side zippers are perfect) and wiggle it down, then turn and bend over as you slip it off. You can slip your panties down a little to show him your ass, but pull them back up again before turning around and facing him to tease him some more. +You should touch him, too, after each reveal, so remember to move in and rub this newly exposed flesh against him—your breasts still in your bra or your ass still covered by your panties. When you do finally remove your bra, shimmy your shoulders, and shake your breasts. Come close to him and do it, don't be shy, but keep them just out of his reach. +When you are down to just your panties, straddle his leg again, and rub your crotch up and down, back and forth. When you finally do remove your panties, let him wait a while before you turn around and bend over so he can see you. (And you have remembered to trim or shave, right?) You may want to put your hands back there and spread everything open for a moment so he has a good peek, but don't stay too long. You can move anywhere you want, crawl on the floor, kneel in front of him, lay down and scissor your legs in the air, and then spread them wide, just for a moment, before bringing them back together again. +Pose for him. Dance for him. And talk to him. When you touch yourself, moan out loud. Ask him if he likes what you're doing. Slip your hand into your panties and tell him, ""I'm getting so wet."" Tweak your nipples, and cup your breasts, offer them to him just out of his reach and ask, ""Do you like them?"" You can even ask him what he wants to see next, but never give him exactly what he wants. Remember, this is about teasing him! +Now, when you have worked him into a fevered pitch, and his eyes are bright with lust and he is breathing hard, now is the time to let him watch you touch yourself and make yourself cum for him. You can lay on the floor and spread your legs, put your feet up on his knees if you want. You can bend over, if he likes that view, and finger yourself from behind. You can use his bare thigh, if you like, and make a sloppy, wet mess all over. He'll love it, trust me. +And finally, you get to give him what he wants—whatever he wants. Offer it to him. If he wants a blowjob there in the chair, give it to him. If he wants to fuck you doggie-style on the floor, go for it. If you wants to take you to bed, you can do that, too. He will probably be very aroused at this point, and whatever happens will be very passionate. You will probably be feeling extremely sexy and willing at this point, too, after seeing his response to your unveiling. +This is your gift to him—and to yourself. Remember that it is about revealing not just your body, but your heart as well. Put all of your love and devotion, all of your passion and desire, into your eyes. Give him your heart while you are revealing yourself to him—worship him like a god. Unveiling isn't just about the physical, especially when it takes place between lovers. It is also a symbolic act, stripping away your layers and making yourself vulnerable to him. That's one reason it requires such a leap of faith. But once you do it, and you see and feel his response, you'll love how it changes you. It will make you want to do it again and again—just think of the possibilities!" +526,How to Use a Condom,Shale,How To,2004-01-16,2004-01-16,2022-01-04 08:34:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-use-a-condom-1,An illustrated manual on condom use.,"['After Sex', 'Condom', 'Hold Tip', 'Open Package', 'Petroleum Jelly', 'Slide Foreskin', 'Uncircumcised', 'Wash', 'Water Lube']",4.5,"Properly used, condoms can reduce the risks of infection by sexually transmitted diseases. +Use latex condoms and always check the expiration date on the package to make sure they are not old. +Use condoms for vaginal, oral or anal sex.

This is a short description of how to use simple erotic hypnosis. It will not make you an accomplished hypnotist. If you like the article, vote. Fives are appreciated._ +* * * * * +Erotic Hypnosis can make sex even more fun than you already know about. It is very erotic to be either directed or do the directing. Especially if the actions are without prejudgment. First, let me make one thing very clear. You will not do what I do in my stories. +What you will do is take most of the anxiety out of sex. Men or women can take either role and, indeed, can rotate roles. Everything you do must be done with consent. The consent will be to start the process. You do not stop in the middle and ask further permission. Let’s begin. +First. You discuss the program with your sex partner. You get an agreement that you will be the hypnotist and the partner will be the subject. It is a given that you and your partner will not be experienced with hypnosis. This article will not make you an accomplished hypnotist. That might happen, but that will be as a result of your efforts and not just this article. Some of the things you will discuss are what will happen and will I do anything that I am against doing? +Well, the answer to that is complicated. If you remember my stories, I frequently have the hypnotist “controlling” someone who doesn’t realize they are hypnotized. I certainly have done that. But, the person did nothing they really didn’t want to do at an unconscious level. As a writer I have the privilege of assuming everyone will behave as I expect. You have an advantage, also. The person you will be hypnotizing is already a lover of yours. If there are things that haven’t happened, it may just be inhibition or shyness. What you will discuss is that nobody can be made to do something they are truly against. Hurting a child, suicide, or sex with a stranger (unless that is a secret desire). In my stories the subject, unconsciously wants to have exciting sex - even with a stranger. Your lover would probably not be happy if you brought a stranger to the party, unless that was part of the plan that was discussed. +What you can do and should discuss is speeding up and magnifying orgasms. Making the body parts more sensitive. You will be able to either speed up or slow down your lovemaking. The most important part of the discussion is establishing a comfort level. You don’t want your subject anxious. It won’t work. +Second. Have the subject sit in a very comfortable chair. In my stories I use a number of techniques that involve standing. Those methods work, but they are not for the novice. Establish that the subject is comfortable. The subject should be wearing loose clothing (or no clothing - in a warm room) to increase comfort. There are several methods that you can use to induce a trance. You are dealing with a willing subject, so they should all work. All of the methods take enormous patience and confidence. Hypnosis does not happen quickly the first time. Again, my stories assume perfect conditions and a very accomplished hypnotist. +One method is to have the subject stare at your finger from about five feet. You bring your finger to the subjects nose, repeating that the subject is going into a deeper trance as the finger gets closer. When the finger touches the nose the subject’s eyes will close. You should take five minutes moving your finger. That is very slow! What makes this system work is the subjects eyes will begin to cross making closing the eyes desirable. It will have the feel of an involuntary act which is important in advancing the trance. Everything you do is designed to build credibility with the subject. Once you convince the subject that you have made it difficult for them to move a part of their body, a deep trance will follow. Incidentally, only 20% of the population are somnambulists and won’t remember what happened under the trance. You should assume the subject will remember everything. It really will not change the benefits of the erotic hypnosis. +Another method to get to the same stage is to start with the eyes closed and have every part of the body relax and become limp. Use any order you are comfortable with, but do the whole body. +“Your head is heavy, very heavy. Your neck is limp. Your head is falling onto your chest. Your arms are heavy, limp and relaxed. Your legs are limp and relaxed. Your whole body is very relaxed and completely limp.” Just make each discussion of the body part MUCH longer. The process should take 5 - 10 minutes. +Third. Now that the subject’s body is relaxed from one of the two methods, you need to deepen the trance and set the mood. “As I talk to you your trance is deepening. You are feeling aroused as you listen to my voice. You are imagining me caressing your body and your trance is deepening.” Keep that up for several minutes and watch for small changes in the subject’s body. The limbs should become a little more limp. +“I am going to count to twenty five. With each number your trance will get deeper. As your trance gets deeper you will feel a tingling in your vagina/penis.” Later you can suggest the subject is either getting wet or erect. Count slowly, repeating the instruction that the trance is getting deeper and the subject is getting more aroused. When you get to twenty five, tell the subject that they are now in a deep trance. Lift an arm and drop it. Does it drop as if it wasn’t attached to the body? It should. If the dropping of the arm seems like the person is controlling the limb, go back to the relaxation mantra and try again. +It is possible that your subject will not get any deeper than they are at this point. You can still use the power of suggestion to improve your sex experience. +Fourth. You are now going to make suggestions about sexual conduct. For illustration only, I am going to assume the hypnotist is a man and the subject a woman. I am also going to assume that the parties will not be insulted by street language. Using the words: cunt, cock, pussy, fuck, blow job, tit, etc., can be a turn on to many people. You use such words for shock effect. Many men or women feel sexy if they imagine they are being “naughty” without being in control. That is why the power of suggestion works so well in erotic hypnosis. The subject wants to be relieved of her moral limitations. Her mother always told her that you never do what the hypnotist is ordering. The subject decides she has no choice but to do it. A blow job or photographs or doggy position, whatever. +Now you start making sexual suggestions, while still deepening the control. “Take your pants of and rub your cunt. As you get more aroused, your trance will deepen.” You continue that as long as it seems to be working. Look for signs of increased arousal. In a man, an erection. In a woman, increased moisture in the vagina, flushing and deep breathing. Keep it up as long as the arousal deepens. Tell her that she will not have an orgasm until you say so. The power of suggestion works very well with masturbation. You are authorizing what would be forbidden fruit to many people. You can have your partner masturbate herself close to an orgasm and finish her with intercourse, instructing her to cum when you do. It works! +I suggest you repeat this process many times before attempting to advance. You will know if your partner is responding to the suggestions. Try involuntary commands. During the early sessions you always end with the command: “Whenever I tell you to sleep, you will go into a deeper trance.” Always do it. Now you are going to see if it is working. You say, “Sleep!” If the subject stops what she is doing and goes into a trance you have a good beginning. Don’t try this until you are comfortable with the process. You don’t have to ever get to this stage to get benefit from erotic hypnosis. Directed sex is pleasurable and works. Many people will react to the sleep command out of a desire to please. That is all right. Much of hypnosis is based on a desire to please the hypnotist. +If you have arrived at this stage you can try to be more adventuress. One thing that has worked for me is changing the taste of the ejaculation. You need a good subject for that trick. You can certainly create an environment. A desert island, or any place where the environment would promote enjoyment of sex. I once created a whore house and had my partner be the whore. She loved it. No inhibitions. You can have your partner imagine you are a sex symbol, Mark McGuire, whoever. +Using erotic hypnosis you should be able to get your partner to do things to please you that were not considered before. It is easier for you to say the things that will please you and it is easier for your partner to do them without conditions. It adds eroticism to the experience. Good luck. +* * * * * + _If you enjoyed the article, vote.

Yes, the very positions we uphold in society often leave us lamenting the freedoms that the leftward leaning of the nation enjoy. This is especially true when it come to viewing pornography. +Viewing pornography is an easy thing for the leftward leaners, they simply either view porn on the internet or have it delivered by the US Postal Service to their front door where they can view it in private at home. I am talking about the leftward leaners who have married another leftward leaner, where their spouse or significant other leans with them. They simply view the porn together or on their own without interruption. +Unfortunately, most of us Religious Righters have a spouse or significant other who leans in the same direction and would be appalled if we happened to sneak a peek on the internet or brought in a few video favorites. No, we do not enjoy the freedom to simply enjoy our porn at home, unless we really do enjoy that occasional missionary exercise with our increasingly ogresome spouse or significant other. Sadly, us Religious Righters must find our porn outside our household. +Of course, once again as Religious Righters, we lack the freedom the leftward leaners enjoy. If they want to view porn outside their homes all they have to do is simply drive to a nearby adult bookstore or triple X rated video arcade. They simply drive up, park their car and walk in, simple as that. +We don't enjoy that privilege. Hell if we did that in plain sight we'd be plastered all over the network news, featured on our church's web page, and then interrogated by a number of attorneys. +But, Religious Righters take heart, the porn industry has been working furiously for years in support of our dilemma. Yes, you simply need to follow my instructions on how to view porn and you and your kinky fetishes will remain safely secret. +First of all, keep in mind that your neighborhood triple x rated video arcade is your friend. While many feature a back entrance with somewhat hidden parking, all of them have a special service for us Republicans. Now when you need to view porn you simply pull up to the employee only entrance, beep your horn twice and a gate will open giving you access to their discreet valet service. A driver will direct you to a fully enclosed entrance way protected from all cameras, radar and even satellite surveillance. +Once you depart your vehicle, the driver will transport your car to a nearby car wash where they will have your car washed, waxed and vacuumed. If you expect your porn viewing to take a longer time, there are a wide variety of other services available including an oil change, tire rotation and many other maintenance jobs. +As you depart your vehicle you come in through the protected entrance where you may choose to shed your high priced Republican suit and change into the more chinchy type Democratic attire... you know, the knock off suits instead of the designer originals. All this is to help you blend in with the leftward leaners. I mean, you sure don't want to be recognized there by your preacher, your child's first grade teacher, or your doctor do you? +Now you may remember, from your non-Republican college days, the old change machines where they give you quarters for the video machines. Well they don't have them anymore. Yes the machines still take quarters (a favorite of the leftward leaners) they also will take up to a hundred dollar bill. And yes, if you do choose to use your credit card, the bill shows up on your statement as Tax Deductible Medical Treatment. +If you happen to feel a bit randy and choose to mix with the leftward leaners, the arcade does carry the best and strongest choice of condoms on the market. And if you mistake a leftward leaner for a Religious Righter in disguise and have unprotected sex, the arcade does offer emergency medical facilities complete with psychological counseling. +Of course with any enterprise of this sort there are a few requirements. First of all, all special services must be kept in strict confidence. Leftward leaners must not be allowed to use these services, there is simply so many of them at these establishments that they would bog down the specialized services for us Religious Righters. +If you disclose this information to or if you discover any leftward leaner has this information you must report them for immediate kidnapping and sale into sexual slavery in Asia. Of course if you do happen to falsely report a few Democrats, well who will really miss them, I mean they don't go to the polls anyway. +Once again, Religious Righters take heart, there are an ample supply of discreet pornographic services available to you. You can now enjoy the same porn viewing as your leftward leaning counterparts by simply following my easy instructions above." +529,How to Walk Away...,Tara Cox,How To,2014-07-16,2014-07-16,2022-01-04 08:34:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-walk-away,From your addictions...your very nature.,"['Bdsm', 'Domination', 'Submission']",4.5,"How do you walk away? Simply walk away from a dream? From the lifestyle that you have pursued for two long years? Walk away from a need that is deep inside of you? Turn your back on your own nature? How can you possibly do that and survive? The answer is quite simple really. You face the truth...and it sets you free. +Almost two years ago I began to explore my submissive nature. I had been celibate for the better part of eighteen months because of the psychological damage that my five year marriage had done to me. My self-esteem was shot. I was an emotional basket case. +Then I decided quite simply that I need to get laid. Simple as. I placed an advert online looking for a fuck buddy. And I found a great guy. A wonderful summer romance. We clicked from the beginning. I went from celibate to making out in a parking lot...not a car...the actual parking lot...in half an hour. He was not a Dom but he was dominant. +I had an online email pal who was his wife's Master. He and I got talking. I started reading books about BDSM. Not that one, some good ones. I joined a couple of sites. The first rude emails really turned me off a couple of sites. Then I found another social networking site for the lifestyle. It was much more my style. I began to explore. +In those two years, I have had perhaps a dozen or more tops. I had a Dom and a Daddy. I even had a Master. I cared for them all in one way or another. I gave all that I could. More than I should. I trusted them. I submitted to them. I even loved some of them. And I do not regret a moment of that journey. +I have learned so much about myself. I was born submissive. I believe that our personalities, our natures, are hardwired into us, into our genes. And mine just happens to be submissive. That is why I tried so hard as a child to please the adults. That is why my favorite words on this earth are 'good girl' and has been for as long as I remember. +This 'good girl' was born. My upbringing only reinforced needs inside of me. I did not even rebel as a teenager. When I finally got around to it in my late teens and early twenties, it was short lived, only a couple of years. Then I slipped into the quiet life of wife and mother. Oh, there were other rebellions later on, but all short lived as well. Because submission is more natural to me than rebellion. It always will be. +During these two years, I learned too why my marriages failed. Why I cannot respect weak men. Both of my ex-husbands were submissive men. And two submissives is a very bad combination. Each looks to the other to make decisions. And both are shit at making them. Lesson learned. +But I learned some other things too. Like why there must always be limits. Because as the saying goes, 'power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.' I found another quote by Abraham Lincoln the other day, I think I like it better. ""Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power."" When you give men (or women) that kind of power over you, well, none of them truly appreciates it. +Those limits are there to protect you. Not just your physical body that will usually heal. No, it is your emotions, your tender squishy insides, that are hurt the most when you give too much trust, too much power to someone, anyone. They will all let you down. +And you will let them down. That is what it means to be human. And why we must always have limits. Oh, those limits may be high, really high. But you can never allow another human being to use you, to take you for granted, to place their wants above your emotional needs. That is something called dignity and self-respect and it must always be protected. +I learned too that the lifestyle, BDSM, is a drug. No, really! The chemical process that operate in your brain when you play...the release of endorphins to counteract the pain that results in subspace...is the same as many anti- depressants. And honestly, it can be used as safely and effectively to treat mild depression and stress. +But like any drug, those prescription anti-depressants included, it has side- effects. Sub-drop, when those endorphins are finally used up and you are left feeling worse than you did to begin with, is one of them. +The other though is addiction. Some people take anti-depressants for a time and get better but far too many others come to depend upon the chemical cocktail to achieve happiness. So too do many people in the lifestyle come to need it. Need it more than their marriages. Need it more than their jobs. Need it more than their children. Need their next fix so badly that they will do anything with anyone to get it. +Ten days ago, Independence Day 2014 to be exact, my collar came off. He had been a good guy. A decent human being. But he fit that Abraham Lincoln quote to a tee. I admired the man that had faced adversity. Yet when I gave him that power, absolute power in fact, he did not pass the character test. It was one of those things I mentioned earlier...being taken for granted, your human dignity and self-respect. I drew the line. I stepped out of good little sub role and called him on his behavior. Doms don't like that. Especially when they know they are wrong. And are too proud to admit it. +Since then I have thought back long and hard over the past two years. Like I said, I do not regret any of it. I have learned so many lessons...good and bad about myself and others. I have grown as a human being. I am happier too. And that is where I come to my point about how to walk away...simply walk away...from the lifestyle or any other addiction in your life. +Yesterday, I asked my older daughter to watch her little sister so that I could go to a fetish event. I went alone. That had always been something that made me uncomfortable. Going alone and unprotected did not conform to my personal beliefs about the behavior of a good girl. But yesterday, I went alone. I did not even message any of my dear friends asking them if they were going. I knew at least a couple would have gone with me but I did not want a cop out. I wanted to face my demons. +I made a costume for the event even. One of my little dresses. He had dressed me as a slut in corsets and stockings for months even though that is not my style. This dress was for me. And I did not even cheat by carrying it in a bag and changing when I got there. No, I wore a little girl dress on the trains across London on a sunny summer Sunday. And I held my head high. +What did I do? Normal things. I saw one friend there and said hello. I got a coke and walked around. But mostly I found a booth and sat alone drinking my coke. Don't feel sorry for me. I was no wall flower. I had at least three guys come and stand close to me, looking for some sign that it was all right to approach me. +A sign that never came. I was alone by choice. Except that I was not alone at all. I was messaging two friends as I sipped. One friend whom I had helped to save her marriage and another young woman that needs me that much now. I was happy. +But as I looked around me at the faces, some of them familiar, I realized that most of them were not. These people were controlled by the need for their drug. They were like junkies looking to score. Nervous, looking about constantly, barely able to contain themselves until their fix. +One Domme in particular caught my eye. I had known her for over a year. In that time, her physical appearance had deteriorated. She had let herself go. Unhappiness weighted upon her. Okay, perhaps that has to do with something else in her life...work or family. But shouldn't being around something you consider a hobby, something meant to add to your life, relax you? +In the end, I did not finish my coke. I made a decision. I needed a nap while my girls were gone more than I needed this. Am I against the lifestyle? Do I believe BDSM is wrong or harmful? Not at all! I met my best friends in this community. And it is a community in a way that most things are not these days. That is because any group that is ostracized learns to hang together, to protect one another. +Will I go back there? Might I even play again one day? Maybe, I have learned to never say never. And I will never change who I am...a submissive. But yesterday showed me the most important thing that any of us need to learn...I control my nature, it does not control me. It is my choice. Not my addiction. Not my need. +But an option...just like a nap was another one. And sometimes in life we need a nap...and sometime we need to play. Nothing wrong with either...in its place. I hope you discover that revelation for yourself. Because that is how you walk away from the playground...before it starts to take its toll upon you." +530,How To Win Playing Blackjack,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-17,2008-05-17,2022-01-04 08:34:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-win-playing-blackjack,Are you feeling lucky hoping to win big at the casino?,"['Blackjack', 'Casino', 'Foxwoods', 'Gambling', 'Las Vegas', 'Losing', 'Poker', 'Winning']",,"Are you feeling lucky? Are you hoping to win big at the casino? Well, of course, if you are naturally lucky, then there is no need to even read this story. If I had your luck, I'd run to the nearest casino and sit at a Blackjack table and say the magic words. +""Hit me."" +Now, if you are like the rest of us and lose money when gambling, then this story is for you, especially if your game is Blackjack. +Have you been to Las Vegas? Have you been in some of those billion dollar hotels? Well, where do you do think they got the money to build those monuments to gamblers and gambling? Yeah, they got that money from you. Sanctioned by the state of Nevada and protected under the gambling and gaming laws of Las Vegas, the odds are twisted and turned in favor of the casinos. +There are some games you don't want to play, slots for one. Unless you are born lucky, you will never win a big jackpot. All you will win is arthritis from pulling that handle or pushing those buttons thousands of times while losing thousands of dollars. +Craps is a good game to play and compared to the other table games has decent odds, so long as you know how to play the game. I never played Craps nor do I have the interest in learning how to play the game. Too many who don't know how to play the game and who belly up to the table are amateurs at best. They think all it takes is luck and to toss the dice, but there is lots of strategy to winning big with craps and certainly you can win a bundle of dough in just a short time, just as you can lose a bundle of dough, too. +Now, look around at the beautiful interior of the casino, yeah, chances are if you don't move away from the craps table now, the odds are that you'll be another big loser. The casino loves people who don't know the rules and who don't know how to play the game. Yeah, sure, they'll be happy to teach you the rules and with the limited knowledge received you'll be a marginal player at best and one who will lose all your money. +Roulette? Well, close your eyes, think of a number, and push your money forward on black or on red. +""Sorry, you lose."" +""Place another bet?"" +Spin the wheel, play your birthday, anniversary, lucky number, and make a wish. +""No more bets. No more bets. No more bets. Sorry, you lose...again."" +Baccarat is a good game, only, much like craps, you really need to expertly know the rules to play the game. I don't know how to play Baccarat nor do I want to learn. It just doesn't appeal to me. +The rave now is Poker. Although I love playing poker, I don't like playing the type of poker that they play in the Casinos mainly because I don't have the guts to push all my chips forward while declaring, ""All in"". +I think, just my opinion, that they removed some of the strategy away from the game and replaced it by luck and too much bluffing when pushing all your chips up in the pot for one bet. Besides, I prefer playing poker for nickels, dimes, and quarters and not for thousands of dollars. +Now, we come to my game of choice, Blackjack. I've been to Atlantic City, Vegas, Foxwoods, Mohegan Sun, and Vegas night at the local church. Let it be known that I have never lost money playing Blackjack, nope, not once, not ever. I always win. Oh, sure, I've lost lots of hands playing Blackjack and have gone up and down, even as far down to my last $25, but I always leave the table a winner. Now, I'm no expert player, but I do know how to play the game. +If you have any hope of winning any game, especially Blackjack, you need to know how to play to improve your chances. Let me repeat that because it is really important. You need to know how to play the game before you sit at the table. It is important to become a student of the game and to learn the strategy that will improve your play of Blackjack so that you are playing the best game of Blackjack that you can play, thereby giving the house the lowest possible edge over you. A mistake in strategy will cost you money. +Believe me, if you sit at a table those sitting with you will offer their expert advice and frown if you make the wrong move and may even get angry with you if you made the wrong move that took their card, the card that cost them money, and the card that would have made them a big winner instead of a big loser. Suffice to say, it is best you know how to play before you park your ass down for several hours or several minutes. +Where you sit at a Blackjack table is very important. Think of the table as a baseball diamond with the dealer being the catcher and facing second base. First base is to his left, the seat that is dealt the first card and third base is to his right the seat that the dealer deals the last card. So, why is it important where you sit at a Blackjack table? Well, I'll tell you. +If you sit at first base, you are dealt the cards first and have little time to react to a play. Moreover, you don't have the advantage of seeing everyone else's cards and/or plays of strategy before making your move. Conversely, by sitting at third base, you are the last one to receive your cards, giving you more time to react and consider your play. +Sitting at third base is important because I do the one thing that the casinos frown upon and will ask me to leave their casino never to darken their door, again, if they catch me doing it. I count cards. Yep, that's right. I am one of those dreaded card counters. An accountant by vocation, I have a thing with numbers. With a photographic memory when it comes to numbers, I've been called Rainman a few times in my life. +Now, a casino is automatically going to assume that anyone sitting at the third base position is a card counter. Besides, just by watching some of your boneheaded plays that are not only against common Blackjack strategy but also moves that pisses off the other players by them not receiving the card that would have made them a winner instead of a loser will reveal you as an evil card counter. +To begin with dealers, pit bosses, floor men, and security will pay anyone sitting at third base at a Blackjack table more attention, so buckle up for a bumpy ride. Therefore, you want to do everything in your power not to act like a card counter, mainly by acting like you are not paying any attention to the cards and plays of the other players. +I can count up to 8 decks of cards while having a drink and holding a conversation with the player sitting next to me or preferably with the playing sitting across the table from me, as it is easier to see everyone's cards when gazing across the Blackjack table in the pretense of having a conversation. +I've had the 'Eye in the Sky' called on me twice by a dealer and had a Pit Boss watch my every play for several minutes. I made sure that I lost those hands. Yet, I've never been caught. Why? I have one fatal flaw. Actually, I have lots of flaws, but when it comes to playing Blackjack, I only have one. I can't bet. I'm no gambler. As soon as I win $300-$500, afraid to lose what I won, I get up and leave the table. +I took my girlfriend to Foxwoods in Connecticut last year. For those of you who don't know, Foxwoods is the biggest casino in the world. You'd think the biggest casino to be in Las Vegas, Nevada instead of Connecticut. The biggest hotels in the world are in Vegas with MGM being the biggest hotel in the world. +My girlfriend had never been to a casino and didn't even want to go with me. She reluctantly played the slots and quickly won $100 and quit. Don't you hate people like her? She spent the rest of the time bored while watching me play Blackjack. I had been bragging to her that I never lose. +My rule is that I play with $300. If I lose my $300, I leave the casino. I never reach in my pocket for more money. I'm done. +Within 15 minutes, I was down to my last $25. After all my bragging, I was embarrassed. There was my girlfriend looking over my shoulder and looking at her watch glad in a way that I was losing because we would soon be leaving the casino. She hated the whole experience. +Just then, they changed dealers. Within 20 minutes I went from $25 to $1,000. I got up and left with my head held high and my girlfriend believing that I was some kind of professional gambler. That day, I was just lucky they changed from a cold dealer to a hot one. +For those who don't believe that card counting works, you just have to remember the MIT students that played the game and who broke the house. Some years back an organized group of MIT students, math whizzes, learned the game of Blackjack, specifically concentrating their mathematical minds on keeping a running card count. The way they played was virtually foolproof and had they not gotten greedy and a bit brazen, Las Vegas investigators never would have caught them. There was a subsequent book, a movie, and a television show called Breaking the House. +The way that the MIT students did it was as a team. They had one player who sat at the table and actually played the game. His job was not so much win as it was to maintain a running count. As soon as the count was favorable to the player, he'd signal a member of his group, someone who had been standing a distance away from the table, watching the play, and waiting for the signal. +Then, it was lights, action, and camera as a team member who had just received the signal that the count was favorable stumbled to the table with the appearance of having had a little too much to drink. Before the dealer had a chance to deal the next hand, the new player would plop down the maximum bet, usually ten thousand dollars. More often then not, he or she was a winner. Now, multiple this kind of play by the fifty or so members that they had on their team at different casinos throughout the United States and these MIT students were making millions of dollars. +Is that considered cheating? Is that play considered illegal? Well, it was to the casinos and it is to the Las Vegas gambling laws. I consider it smart playing. Only, I never organized anything like that, I just sit at a table alone while playing Blackjack, sipping my drink, holding a conversation, and counting cards. +As further proof that card counting really works and card counters really do win, to stop players from counting cards, casinos are switching to automatic card shufflers. The cards are reshuffled after every hand. The process of shuffling the cards removes the advantage to the card counter. Yet, there are still plenty of casinos who don't use automatic card shufflers and even the casinos that do, not all their tables used them. You just have to look around the casino floor to see which table doesn't use an automatic card shuffler; it is the table with the crowd of people around it hoping to grab a seat and play. +The casinos employ other strategies, too, to dissuade card counters from winning. They'll continually change dealers and will prematurely reshuffle the cards even before reaching the yellow cut card that the player places in the deck and that calls for a reshuffle. +Away from the strip and the mega-hotel complexes, I once played Blackjack at Binions on Front Street in downtown Las Vegas. My eyes bugged out of my head when I saw that the dealer not only played with one deck of cards but also she held them in her hand at chest level. With no automatic card shuffler and without having to keep a running count of 4, 6 or 8 decks in play, I was up $750 within 15 minutes. I left the table with my winnings. +Whenever I tell people that I never lose at Blackjack, they don't believe me. For those who dare me, I take a deck of cards and play an impromptu game of Blackjack with them. After only a few quick hands and their money in my pocket, they believe me. +To count cards you don't have to keep track of every card played to maintain an accurate count. I count only those cards from two to six and all cards from ten to King. There are some card counters who keep track of Aces, but I don't. To count cards you must practice, practice, and practice. +Before I hit a casino, I practice my card counting skills over a couple of months a few hours a day. It takes a concentrated effort and focus to count cards so well that you can maintain a running count almost with your eyes closed. Don't forget, once you hit the casino with all the noise, sounds, lights, and people your pulse rate increases, you get nervous, and are easily distracted. Not to mention, the dealer is not standing there waiting for you to get your accurate card count before dealing the next hand, he's whizzing those cards at you as fast as he can. +The more hands the casino plays the more chance they have of winning and you of losing. It is important you slow the pace down without making it appear too obvious. Just by taking an extra second or two of pensive thought, as to how to play your hand is enough to slow your demonic dealer from dealing a dozen hands in a few minutes. +So, how do you count cards? Count the low cards, those cards from 2-6 as positive and high cards, those cards from 10-king as minus. Let's say for an example the dealer deals a two and a Jack. The count is zero with one card zeroing out the other. The next person is dealt a ten and a king. Now, the count is minus 2. Next hand is dealt a four and a six. Your count is back to zero. The next hand is a seven and a nine. Those neutral cards have no effect on the count and your count is still at zero. +Suddenly, the dealer deals a huge amount of low cards and you find that the count is a positive 12. When your count is a plus 10 or greater, meaning more high still remain in the deck is when you want to increase the amounts of your bets. This is the time that if you are dealt a 13-17, you want to stay instead of taking a hit. This is the time if you are dealt a pair, you want to split them and play two hands of if you are dealt a 9-11 you want to double down. +When you can affirm that more low cards are played than high cards, the count is favorable to the player. Why? Because chances are the dealer will bust when you stay with you four and nine or 13 and don't take a hit, whereas the dealer has a ten and a six and must take a hit. +Because of the positive count with more low cards played than high cards, chances are good that his next card is a ten to a king, giving him twenty-six. Yet, once you stay with a few of those hands and win, hands that any player who is not counting cards would have hit and busted, the casino will either suspect you as a card counter or a bad player who is lucky, as well as will the other players sitting at your table. +You must keep in mind that unlike poker, you aren't playing against the other players. You are only playing against the dealer. Any time you don't have to draw a card and take a hit, you have a better chance of winning and less of a chance of busting your hand. The strategy of a card counter is to hopefully receive the best possible hand and leave it to the dealer to draw a card and bust his hand. Basically, a card counter will only take a hit when the count is minus. +Where the card counting strategy pays off is when you are stuck with hands that are between 13 and 17. Conventional strategy states that you always take a hit, yes I'd never stay with 17, especially if I knew the count and there were lots of low cards in the deck remaining. By counting cards, you have a much better chance of beating the house and winning some money. +Let's recap. Since the best odds of winning any game in a casino is by playing Blackjack, here are some things to remember. +1\. Play Blackjack and only play Blackjack, that is, unless you know how to play craps and Baccarat really well and that is your game or games of preference. +2\. Learn how to play the game of Blackjack before sitting at the table. If you are a marginal Blackjack player and don't know how to play the game cold, as soon as that dealer starts firing cards at you is not the time to wonder about strategy. +3\. Sit at third base. Being the last person to receive their cards gives you an advantage, especially if you are counting cards. Sitting at third base allows you to watch the play of the other players before it is your turn to play. +4\. Learn how to count cards. It's not as difficult as you think. It only takes practice and is something that you can do when waiting to pickup your significant other at the mall. While you wait, deal yourself practice Blackjack hands to practice counting cards. +5\. Don't show that you are counting cards. Have a drink. Smile. Laugh. Talk to some of the players sitting at the table. Joke around with them. Have a good time. +6\. Tip your dealer. If you've won a good hand, give him a tip. Dealers will sometimes help you with strategy. If it means more of a tip for them when you win, they will help you to win. Not all dealers are for the casino. +7\. Sit at a table that has good karma. You can tell as soon as you take a seat if this is a hot table of a cold table or a good dealer or a bad dealer. Don't be afraid to get up and find another table if you find yourself losing. +8\. Play with an agreed upon amount before even walking in the casino and never reach for more money hoping to chase after money you lost and hope to get back. +9\. If you are having a hot streak and find yourself winning don't be afraid to get up and go. Sure, you can wait until you lose a hand or two, but leave while you are ahead. The casino wants you to play longer because the longer you play the better the odds the casino will win back what you won and the money you came there with to gamble. +10\. Never drink and gamble. There is good reason why the casinos give you free drinks. They are hoping you get tipsy enough not to notice that you are losing. +Good luck" +531,How To Win the Survivor Contest,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-06,2008-05-06,2022-01-04 08:34:27,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-win-the-survivor-contest-1,"It's easy and it's fun! (Well, not so easy...)","['Story Contest', 'Writer', 'Writing']",3.07,"It's easy and it's fun! +""Easy! Well, kind of, not really, not at all. But, it's fun! Well, kind of, not really, not at all."" +This being my second year competing in Literotica's year long Survivor Contest, I have learned a few things about the Survivor's Contest necessary to win or, at the very least, place in the money. +I like the Survivor Contest for two reasons, it makes me write every day and it is the only contest that I have some control over winning, being that it is a contest of quantity and not quality. +There are those writers and readers who hate the Survivor Contest because they feel that too many inferior stories are dumped on the board for the sake of the contest and not for the sake of the art of writing. If it was up to them, they'd have Literotica offer no contests. Yet, I have a feeling they'd be the first to complain if there weren't any contests offered. You just can't please all the people all of the time. +What I like about Survivor is that if you are a hack like me, you don't have to be a good writer or even have a bunch of friends voting for you to win the survivor contest or to finish in the money. All that it takes are dozens and dozens of 750 word stories. Notwithstanding, it is not an easy feat to write the volume of stories necessary to win or place in the contest. Towards the end of the contest, it gets more difficult to think of stories to write. After a while if feels like you are running up Heartbreak Hill at the Boston Marathon. +First and foremost is to read the rules. Last year, I skimmed the rules and then referred back to then whenever I had a question. My advice to you is not only must you read the rules but also you should memorize them and keep a copy posted by your computer, as they will be recited back to you chapter and verse by not only the moderators catching a violation of rules but also by the participants. +So, unless you want to be flagged as a cheater for the remainder of your existence on Literotica, instead of someone who just didn't memorize the rules, you should know the rules of the Survivor Contest verbatim. You need to know the rules of the Survivor Contest as well as you know the Pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America or that Britney Spears or Michael Jackson song that you sing in your bathroom, while holding the hairbrush up to your mouth, that you don't want anyone to know. +The second thing is probably the most important thing. You must write every day. Now, that doesn't mean that you should submit a story every day. Some days, some people can write multiple stories. Sometimes some people are lucky to write a story in a week or two. Yet, if you write every day, even if you leave the story unfinished to begin another and leave that story to begin yet another only to revisit all of them later, by this time next month, you may find that you have half a dozen stories that are now finished and ready to submit. +Unless you want to be unmercifully bashed, you should seek the editing skills of the many professional editors who help writers edit their work. I hear many of them are talented writers, as well. I don't use an editor. I'm an Accountant and work in a high stressed job as a Controller for a large company. I chose not to use an editor because it would take the fun out of my writing and make it too much like work. +If I used an editor, besides having to audit numbers at work, I have to edit my words at home. Writing helps me to relax and decompress. Besides, I'd rather write from the seat of my pants than to have someone else meddle with my work. Unlike many of the American Idol participants and some of the writers who write here, I have no pretentious thoughts of ever becoming a serious writer. +Basically, to win this contest you need to write 310 stories and 40 poems in 35 categories, which would earn you 655 points. Still, all that does not guarantee a win, as writers are allowed to write more than 310 stories but not more than 40 poems. In my case, I could have 100 stories in the Non-Erotic category, which I probably will, and have only one story in all the other categories. That's okay to do, too. +The categories are: Anal, BDSM, Celebrities, Chain Stories, Erotic Couplings, Erotic Horror, Exhibitionism & Voyeur, Fetish, First Time, Gay Male, Group Sex, How To, Humor & Satire, Illustrated, Incest/Taboo, Interfacial Love, Lesbian Sex, Letters & Transcripts, Loving Wives, Mature, Mind Control, Non- Erotic, NonCensent/Reluctance, NonHuman, Novels and Novellas, Reviews & Essays, Romance, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Text With Audio, Toys & Masturbation, Transsexuals & Crossdressers, Erotic Poetry, Illustrated Poetry, Non-Erotic Poetry, and Poetry With Audio. +Now, if it was up to me, I'd only submit stories in the incest categories, stories about my mother-in-law and sisters-in-law. I have dozens of those stories. Did I ever tell you the story of my sister-in-law when my mother-in- law walked in...never mind. I'll write that story later. +My favorite category by default is the Non-Erotic category, since much of what I write is devoid of graphic sex and dumped there in that collector of a category. Definitely, though, many of my Non-Erotic deemed stories, to me at least, are Erotic stories. Unfortunately, even though this an erotic story site, Literotica does not have an erotic story category. Go figure. My two other favorite categories are the Humor and Review & Essay Categories. I tend to write a bunch of stories in those categories. +Yet, that's the good thing about the Survivor Contest. Without the contest, I never would have written stories in Lesbian Sex, Mind Control, and Toys & Masturbation, to only name a few. The Survivor makes me write stories for these categories and I'm a better writer for that. Definitely, since I don't do anal, I never would have written an anal sex story had it not been for the Survivor Contest. +In the perfect Survivor Contest participant scenario, not only should you write every day but you should write at least, one story every day, which is, of course, 365 stories in the year. Now, instead of writing 365 stories, which is a daunting task, you still can win by only writing 300 stories, unless that is, you have a competitor who is driven to win, doesn't have a job, and his or her only goal is to win the Survivor Contest. Then, you'll probably finish in second place. +Allow me to explain. There are 35 categories that require 10 stories in each category to earn the needed 5 bonus points to win the contest. Now, of those 35 categories, 4 categories are poetry, Poetry With Audio, Non-Erotic Poetry, Erotic Poetry, and Illustrated Poetry, and one category is Novels & Novellas. That means you only need 30 categories and 300 stories. +I wouldn't waste my time posting anything to the Novels and Novellas category. You're better off breaking your 7,500 word story that you would have posted as one story for six points in the Novels and & Novella category and post it as 8 stories of a little more than 900 words each to fill up other categories. By doing it that way, you will earn two extra points. Besides, it gets worse, when you submit your second story to the Novel and Novella category, that 7,500 word story is now only worth two points. You'd be better off to break that long 7,500 story into chapters and earn 6 or more points instead of only 2 points. +There are some categories that may not attract your interest. Those are the categories that you save to use your immunity points. The chances are, in the course of a year, you'll earn 6 immunities that you can use to close off a category, which translates into 12 immunity points. Some contestants earn less immunities and some contestants more immunities with the luck of the draw, but you have a good chance of earning 6 immunities in the year, if you have any luck at all. +For me, the four categories that I'll never write anything in are Poetry With Audio, Illustrated Poetry, Illustrated, and Text With Audio. None of those categories appeal to me enough to take the time and effort to post anything there. Those are easy categories for some, but not for me. I just hope to win enough immunities in the course of the year to fill them. +By winning immunities and not having to write in those 5 or 6 categories, lessens the number of stories that you must write to win the contest. Yet, by not writing in all categories, of course, will lessen the number of points you will earn, as an immunity is only worth two points, instead of the 17 points you would have earned had you written the ten stories in that category earning three points for the first story, one point for each subsequent story, and a 5 point bonus for writing your tenth story in one category. +Basically, if you won 6 immunities during the course of a year and used two of those immunities for two poetry categories and 4 immunities for story categories, instead of having to write 310, you'd only have to write 270 stories. A daunting feat but it is easier to write 270 stories than it is to write 310 stories. Plus, you will need to write in at least two of the poetry categories, such as in the erotic and non-erotic as well, earning you some easy points. Only, for me, at least, it is much easier to write a story than it is to write a poem. +If you wrote 270 stories filling up 27 categories and won 6 immunities earning you twelve points and filled up two of the poetry categories, erotic and non- erotic with you 60 bonus points earned for writing in 35 categories, you'd have 531 points, which may win you the contest. Definitely, without a doubt, it will finish you in the top three. Who knows, you may even win the Survivor Contest. +Good luck." +532,How to Win the Survivor Contest,dirtyjoe69,How To,2006-12-25,2006-12-25,2022-01-04 08:34:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-win-the-survivor-contest,Tips on how to win the writing contest.,"['Contest', 'Writing']",4.75,"Now I know it is too late for those of you who haven't started and the contest is coming to a close very soon but for those of you who are interested here are a few pointers on how to win the Survivor Contest next year. +First you must be in it to win it. The prizes are pretty good for the work you have to do to finish among the top five. If you are not sure if you have enough stories in you to actually get to the top (I know it seems like a daunting task to write 200-400 stories but if you did one a day that gives you over 360) just write a couple for your own enjoyment and you might find yourself (like I do sometimes) in a groove and before you know it you have ten then twenty done. +Second, don't be like me and wait until the middle of the contest to start writing! I started in the middle of June and that is going to cost me first place. I have been playing catch up ever since. Also since I am in the navy I just don't have the same amount of time to write as the other contestants. Between sails and courses I actually worked it out that I only really wrote for two months. So if you pace yourself throughout the entire year you will find you have more stories than you know. Unlike me this will leave you in a comfortable spot when the final days are approaching. I have to belt off about 20 to 30 stories a day in the final few that are left and I don't care how good of a writer you are you just get tired and your mind starts to wonder trying to write that many in such a short time. +Third, please if you are in it to win it just don't write a bunch of crap. I have done a few crap stories to push the numbers but I am proud that most of the stories I have written have posted a grade of over 4 out of 5. And some of the lower rated stories of mine have been rated low more out of disagreement (I like to do rants and this pisses some people off and instead of voting on my writing they vote on whether they agree with my opinions or not) as opposed to whether the story was good or not. Personally if someone that writes a story that brings out emotion enough to piss you off they wrote a good story! +Fourth, be creative and don't write the same story over and over and over again. I try to take different angles and perspectives for my stories. Change it up, first, second or even third person perspectives can really change your writing. Don't get locked in. Even though you are trying to get the most stories out as possible you still want people interested in reading what you have written. Let me tell you it is a rush when someone emails you to tell you the story you have written was beautiful, or the hottest thing they have ever read! +Fifth, don't be afraid to let people comment on your stories. Yes you will receive bad comments but this can only help you in your writing and it will also drive you to do better. I love all comments good or bad and when reading the comments I take them for what they are...opinions. +Sixth, be sure to have your email accessible so people who won't comment on the board can send their opinions privately. This also allows you to get story ideas. Many of my stories (at least 30%) have been requests from readers who like the way I write. They email me with ideas and that makes it a little easier to get the numbers because they are basically giving you a story line you just have to provide the filler for the story. +Seventh, keep to it. Don't get frustrated because people aren't responding like you think they will. I write for myself first then my wife second. When I feel good about a story or my wife thinks it is good then I know I have done my job. You are not going to please everyone all the time (just look at some of the comments on my stories some of them range from hate it to love it) just try to please some of the people some of the time. You will be less discouraged that way. +Eighth, start with topics that interest you. Doing this it will keep you interested and get the writing juices flowing. Soon you will find yourself writing in the other topics that you have less desire in. +Ninth, try to fill at least one story in every topic. The bonus points are crucial to winning this contest. +Tenth, if you have a real long story break it in to chapters and send in each chapter on different days. It may only be one story but it might be long enough to count for two or three. +I hope I helped any of you writers out there that are thinking of playing next year. I just wish I would have taken my own advice this year. I might have actually had a shot at winning the thing. Because I will be on course for most of next year and have a demanding sailing schedule I don't think I will be writing very much but for those of you who have enjoyed, hated, agreed, disagreed or even threatened me for my stories, your comments were appreciated and welcomed. I am glad I could stir up enough passion for you to comment! +Take Care +DirtyJoe69 +* * * * * + _ **Editor's Notes:** Survivor 2007 is already in planning stages.

Ladies and gentlemen, and wenches and rogues may I present the seven hundred fifty word story. Never has so much attention been wasted on a particular word count and yet here we are again. +The, by some definition, crappy seven hundred fifty word story has been so abused lately that I thought I might try and understand its crappiness. Strangely, the seven hundred fifty word story is something difficult to find, especially at Literotica. Yeah there are a few, ranging from Oggbashan's compilations of fifteen fifty word stories into an interrelated seven hundred fifty word story, to a few humorous stories about very fast lovers, but all in all it is difficult to find a story of this length. +Anyway, in an effort to propagate a better appreciation of this wonderful, but once again by definition, crappy short story length, I thought I would discuss how to write a seven hundred fifty word erotic story. Of course the duration may seem daunting to some, why I basically learned to write short stories by entering contests limiting the story length to no more than two hundred fifty words. Yes, after that, seven hundred fifty seems like a novel. +While at Literotica I have seen erotic stories of incredible length, with sexual escapades lasting for what seems like days on end, and while yeah I fantasize about an encounter lasting for hours, other than a significant few, the majority of encounters I experienced have been much shorter. I firmly believe that, for most people, sexual encounters are short and fleeting in nature. While the encounters are short, they can be beautifully intense, loving and very satisfying activities for the participants. Of course they can also be very ugly, hateful or simply unsatisfying. Both can be expressed in an erotic story. +All stories have a beginning, a middle and an end, in the case of a seven hundred fifty word story, we can consider this a lead into to the erotic act, the erotica act, and the departure from the act. Now if you generally allow two hundred fifty words to each of these portions and you have your story, exactly seven hundred fifty words worth. +Sorry guys, it's not as simple as that. The lead in to the erotic act will need to generate some interest in the people involved and, depending upon the point of view of the story, will need to offer some motivation for the characters. Character development? Now that's a _novel_ concept. We are only afforded the insight into characters that the point of view allows. The brevity of the story often will only give the reader a peek at only an aspect of a character's character. If you want to psychoanalyze each character you might be better off writing a novel instead of a seven hundred fifty word story. +Once you create the interest and establish motive you bring on the erotica, be it pretty or ugly, good or bad, satisfying or disgustingly unsatisfying. Here you will want to pay attention to description, but don't overdo it or, once again, you will writing an epic. Let your reader contribute something here: their imagination. Play upon their imagination... don't give them a bra size, don't go into detail about watermelon or lemon size breasts, unless the breast size is a pivotal part of the story simply call them large breasts, small breasts, tiny breasts, or enormous breasts. Leave out the fourteen inch cock that is seven inches in diameter, simply call it a large cock or a small cock, that is unless the size of the cock is central to the story. +When describing the sex you once again need to think about point of view. Consider what can actually be seen during the act, unless you get into your character's mind while they fantasize about what is happening. Either way, remember our premise that most sex, regardless of how sweet it is, is short. Of course if this is the sixth or seventh sexual act for each person in that day it may take some time, but if it's been a while between encounters it will probably be quick. If not, then write a novel. +Ah, then comes the finish, where the man or woman tries to figure out the quick, graceful exit. Hey, falling asleep happens a lot, especially for the guys. The man having an affair most likely is worrying about getting home before suspicions are aroused, while the woman who just had the worst sex of her life is trying to figure out how to get this fat, slob out of her apartment. Yes, the partners can kiss, and cuddle and coo and talk about the amazing act and their wonderful lives, but get real and read a novel. The people here, whether happy or sad, are in a hurry. +So what you have now in this seven hundred fifty word story is two people, for whatever reason, decided to have sex, they have sex and then they leave, with some things happening in between. Hey, that seems to describe the vast majority of sexual encounters in the world today. Yes, they can be wonderfully erotic and satisfying or just the opposite, either way it doesn't matter, if the story is compelling it will work. +There it is, a surefire way to write a seven hundred fifty word story. Yeah it sounds like a perfect disaster, which it is, just like a fifteen hundred word story, a three thousand word story or a thirty thousand word story. All are perfect disasters unless a writer with the ability to tell a story writes it, then all of them, from fifty words to thirty thousand or more can work out wonderfully.

There's a bench overlooking the park and the river. Please sit down and relax, taking in the scenery - the trees, the flowers. Smell the air.

Easy? Try to write fifteen.,"['Advice', 'Author Advice', 'Fifty-Word', 'Flash Fiction', 'Writing']",4.65,"* * * * * + _Copyright Oggbashan May 2006_ +The author asserts the moral right to be identified as the author of this work. +This essay includes works of fiction. The events described here are imaginary; the settings and characters are fictitious and are not intended to represent specific places or living persons. +* * * * * +How to write a fifty-word story for Literotica. +1\. Basics. +It seems so simple. +All you have to do is write a story that is fifty words long. No more. No less. +The title, which should not be long, is not included in the fifty words but any title longer than a couple of words wouldn't be in the spirit of a fifty word story. +However, Literotica has a minimum word limit of 750 words. This means that to submit a fifty word story you would have to write fifteen fifty-word stories to post as one submission. +Writing one fifty-word story is fairly easy. Fifteen of them is more of a challenge. +Even a fifty-word story needs a plot to work effectively. The plot must be very simple and direct. Boy meets girl is a good choice. There is little space for development into conflict and resolution. +It is a good idea to include a twist in the last sentence, to take the reader's expectation of the ending and turn it around. +2\. Mechanics. +2.1. The first draft +A fifty word story is easier built up from fewer words than cut down from more. Writing a one hundred word story and reducing it to fifty is probably harder than starting with thirty words or so and building to fifty. +Here is an example, starting from thirty: +""I looked between my fingers. It was huge. There was no way I could mount that. I turned to run away. He caught me and swung me – to the horse's back."" +That is thirty words. It is the basis for a fifty-word story. It isn't perfect. The misdirection needs to be enhanced. If the word 'swung' is changed to 'lifted' and the sentence with 'mount' changed to something apparently more sexual, perhaps like this: +""I looked between my fingers. It was huge. It must hurt to spread myself that wide. I turned to run away. He caught me and lifted me – to the horse's back."" +That is now thirty-one words. There is still room for improvement. The repeat of 'me' in the last sentence is awkward. There are nineteen words left to add more to the story. +If you can, the easiest way is to write something very close to the fifty words as the first draft. This would become easier with practice. By the time you have written a fifteen times fifty-word submission you should have a reasonable idea of what would be fifty words, and what would not. +2.2. Word count +I copy and paste the draft into a Word document I have called 'fiftycheck' and then use 'tools' to count the number of words after each draft or revision. I delete the counted document and return to the draft to adjust if necessary. +I count the words up to twenty times before the draft is completed. Using Word is much easier than counting on the screen. +2.3. Editing +Once you are happy with the draft it is a good idea to leave it for a day or two while working on something else, perhaps another one of the fifteen fifty- word stories you have to produce to meet the 750 word minimum. +Look at the story you have written. With so few words it is important that every word is there because it has to be. Could that word be replaced with something stronger? Could that phrase be deleted and replaced with a couple of words, leaving a few words to use elsewhere? +Editing a fifty-word story is similar to editing a poem. Perhaps a fifty-word story IS a poem. +I'll use a couple of my first five fifty word stories to show editing in practice. They are in my Poetry as 'Fifty Word Fantasies'. I submitted them as 'poetry' because I only wrote five = 250 words plus the 15 words of titles, not enough for the 750 word minimum. +Example 1. +""Fifty Word Facesit +I struggle vainly, bound by her bra and pantyhose. She straddles +my legs, slides up my body. White panties flash, her grey skirt +covers me in scented darkness. Warm damp cotton brushes my nose, +covers mouth. Her legs wrap my head, pulling my face deep. ""Pay +rise now!"" she insists."" +The title is not great. I included 'Fifty-Word' in all the titles of this set because the format was not familiar to most Literotica readers. The title is an essential part of the format and can be used for the twist. 'Facesit' doesn't really convey much that isn't in the fifty words. 'The Secretary' would reduce the impact of the twist. 'Negotiation' might be better. +The first completed version was in the past tense – 'struggled', 'straddled' etc. Changing the tense to present made the action appear faster and was easy to do because the word count was unchanged. +'warm damp' originally applied to 'darkness' and 'scented' to 'cotton'. I'm not convinced that the change was necessary. 'her grey skirt covers me in warm damp darkness. Scented cotton brushes my nose...' might actually be better than the posted version. +The first draft was a few words short. The added words were 'White', 'grey' and 'cotton' to emphasise the formal office wear. Adjectives and adverbs need to be used sparingly in this format and every one must be there for a purpose. Changing even one of them can have a considerable impact. If I had written 'impotently' instead of 'vainly' as the third word the whole story might have been about encouraging a reluctant erection and celebrating her success in the last sentence. +Example 2 +""Fifty Word Femdom +Her black-booted foot pressed my chest. Cautiously I looked up her +leather-corseted body to the stern face. I winced as the lash trailed +across my shuddering skin. ""Beg forgiveness, slave!"" she ordered. +Helpless, I cringed as she frowned at my bound body. Then she winked. +The pantomime rehearsal was going well."" +The title is weak. 'Femdom' doesn't really convey anything. 'Submission' would have been slightly better. +'leather-corseted' shows how to bend the rules of fifty words. Hyphenated words count as one word. I suppose it might be easier to write fifty-word stories in German by making long compound words like 'tightly-laced-black- leather-corset-wearing-woman'. +'pantomime' is a poor choice of word. It didn't help that in the posted story spelled it wrong as 'pantomine'. Pantomime in the UK means a specific family entertainment at Christmas spiced with double-entendres and innuendo that follows traditional lines with female principal boys, cross-dressed Dames with coarse wit and most of all, audience participation. ""Oh yes they do! Oh no they don't!"" +The image of pantomime is strong but limited to those who know exactly what I intended. Writing for Literotica, with an international audience, I should have used imagery with a more universal application. +This story might also have been improved by changing the tense to present. Even altering 'winked' to 'winks' and 'was' in the last sentence to 'is' might be worthwhile to point the twist. +************************************************* +Example 3 +""Fifty Word Scarfing +Her interesting neighbour was noisily drunk every Saturday. She +acted. She opened her door, pulled in, pushed him in her deep +settee. He reached out. She scarfed his wrists. He protested. She +scarfed his mouth, tied legs. She stripped him slowly and scarfed +tightly. Now he is interested in her."" +This one plays on the meanings of 'interesting' and 'interested' with a double-entendre for 'in her'. It is obviously intended for those who like scarf bondage or have a fetish for scarves. It has only a limited appeal and therefore is not a good submission for Literotica. The whole thing needs recasting to make it more mainstream. The first two sentences could lead into her saving him from something and to him recognising the woman, he had previously ignored, as an attractive partner. It would then be a completely different story. Whether it could be written in fifty words? Perhaps. +************************************************* +3\. Story Ideas/Plots +If you have difficulty finding story ideas or thinking of plots, then fifty- word stories will be hard work. One submission will use fifteen plot lines. +If you have no idea how some authors produce so many stories, avoid fifty-word stories. You could use a lifetime's ideas in one submission. +If you have more ideas than time to write them, fifteen short stories will relieve the pressure and let you concentrate on writing longer stories with more involved plots. +4\. Recommendations +If you think that you could write fifty-word stories then try. It may turn out to be no more than the writing exercise that is the usual reason for fifty- word stories. Even so, the effort might help you with normal length work, showing that complex sentences and extended metaphors are not essential to convey a mood, a location or a story development. +The hard part is to move from writing one fifty-word story to writing fifteen. You may learn and practise the technique but there is likely to be a point at which you run out of steam. It may be the fifth, the eighth or the twelfth story. If you are really stuck, save the file and leave it for a couple of days, weeks, months or until you have a story you KNOW will fit into fifty- words. +If you can't get beyond one or two stories, post them as poetry. +When you feel comfortable with the format there are other possibilities. You could write a set of fifty-word stories as a themed contest entry. You could write fifteen stories around the same characters as fifteen episodes in their relationship. You could even write fifteen fifty-word 'How To's. +Og isn't the only person capable of writing fifty-word stories. Any author should be capable of attempting them. Have a go.

Anyone who's read my profile knows that I have the absolute least amount of experience with real world sex possible, none. Yet, if reader response to my stories is any gauge, I seem to know what I'm doing (If I don't, will someone please let me know). So what do I do when I write a sex scene? +The first step in writing a good sex scene is read good sex scenes, and bad ones. Knowing what sucks is just as important as knowing what is great. I have a voracious appetite for erotica. I have been reading it since before it was legal for me to do so. Lots of letters magazines like Penthouse letters and Hustler fantasies. I've collected massive amounts of erotica from the internet ever since it was possible to do so. So I have seen lots of good and bad stories, as well as good and bad sex scenes. +So just what is a good sex scene? For me, a good sex scene is one that draws the reader in and makes them wish, or imagine, that they are there. A really good one makes you wish you were one of the participants. I will admit that different people have different ideas about what great is, but there are some constants in the good ones. The most important constant of good sex scenes is that they don't fixate on just the physical acts. +Sex is something that is felt, deeply and strongly. ""My cock thrust into her pussy again and again,"" is just nowhere as erotic as ""My cock felt her clench against it with each thrust into the warm moist folds of her pussy."" Brevity is not the goal here, lots of vivid descriptions is. Capture the feelings of the acts that are being described. It's also important to be vivid about the sensations that result. Compare these two descriptions. ""My arousal grew as he caressed my pussy, sliding his fingers between the lips."" ""As he caressed my pussy, sliding his fingers between my lips, my body flushed with heat and sensations, much like electric sparks, rushed from my cunt, causing my body to shudder with pleasure."" The second one is vastly better, letting you feel with the character, the sensations that she was feeling. +It also helps if the descriptions are realistic. I need to qualify this, however. Real sex can be incredibly dull, at least if you believe some of what had been written about it. I had the pleasure of reading an interesting book some time ago, ""The Hite Report on Female Sexuality."" The Hite study solicited women's comments about every possible aspect of sex and compiled them in a book. One of the findings was that at least half of the women in the study reported unsatisfying sex lives. 10% of those having sex regularly had NEVER experienced an orgasm. So realistic descriptions are not about what happens in the real world, per se, but what happens in the real world when the sex is good (unless, of course, your story needs a bad sex scene for plot purposes). +Now, how does someone like me describe realistic sex scenes, if he's never experienced real sex, bad or good. That's where all the reading comes in, especially the various letters magazines. Now, I don't believe that every letter in ""Penthouse Letters"" describes things that actually happen, but I am convinced that they are written by real people. These people describe sex as they have experienced it, possibly spruced up to be more glorious. There's nothing wrong with that, that's what we do when we write erotica. Even for the sexually experienced, this is important, since there will always be half our readership that we cannot share an experiential connection with, the opposite gender. +There is no way that a man, such as myself, can know what a woman feels when experiencing sexual arousal, pleasure and orgasm. I may have (and do have) an extremely vivid imagination, but it has to have an initial reservoir of experience to build on. ""The Hite Report"" and various letters magazines have been my inspiration. I draw on these and let my imagination go to work, honed by 30 years of being a game master for fantasy role playing games. Similarly, I know that no woman can know what male arousal, pleasure and orgasm feels like. But both sexes can imagine and describe them for the other. +The good news is that, based on extensive reading, real sex has as many variations as there are people. This means that most of our descriptions will be realistic to someone. It also means that there will be someone out there who thinks that anything you write will seem unrealistic. Our goal should be to make it seem realistic to as many people as we can. Frequently, out audience will affect out choices. One of the areas I write in is BDSM. The audience for that kind of erotica has certain expectations that, to non- aficionados, would seem horribly unrealistic. Take pain, for example. A common theme in BDSM fiction is the 'pain slut'. This is the woman who can cum just from experiencing intense pain (Singularity's Michelle or Surmi from my Valerie series are excellent examples). BDSM fans will believe such a character, or at least suspend disbelief in such a character, but those who are not fans will find such a character and the descriptions of how pain drives her to an orgasm unrealistic. Like wise, the lesbian/gay archetype of the homosexual who can successfully seduce the straight person is easily believed by fans of lesbian/gay fiction, but those who don't like such stories will find the descriptions of straight people responding positively to homosexual advances unrealistic. And it will not matter how real it really is. For all I know, homosexual seduction is real and common, but if the reader doesn't want to believe it, then it will always be 'unrealistic' to that reader. (It's nice that literotica allows readers to find what they want to read) +I'm about to get controversial on you. Good sex scenes do not exist in a vacuum. They are part of a story. Now don't get me wrong, I like a good stroke story just as much as the next guy. It is possible to write a really hot sex scene that will get rave reviews. But hot is not good. Not everyone believes this. Some people believe that hot sex equals good sex. I have to disagree. Good sex scenes draw the reader into the scene and make them care about it. Caring comes from knowing the characters. That requires story, not just sex. Now I'm not talking about a novel. Part one of my ""Galactic Slave"" series is only one literotica page long, contains one hot unwilling sex scene, one vivid humiliation sequence and two sequences of uncontrollable arousal, yet it has enough story to make you care about Susan and what is happening to her. Let the reader know what the backdrop is, why the characters are involved in the sex they are in. It doesn't take a likable story either, or a sexual result that the reader wants to see. King_Welsey's ""I Want to Play a Game"" is one of my least favorite stories, not because it is poorly written (it is actually very well written). I hated the intent of the protagonist and what he was subjecting his victims to. But, he was extremely successful at getting me to care about the poor women in the story, making the subsequent sexual scenes, disappointing as their outcomes were, very good. His descriptions of unwilling arousal and terror at being aroused are powerful and moving. +There is one more thing that makes a good sex scene. Emotion. Sex, good sex is emotional. Your characters should feel emotions when they approach, engage in and recover from sexual experiences. Any emotion can motivate sex or be motivated by sex. A frequent emotion used in the reluctance/non-consent area is fear. The woman (or man) engages in sex does so out of fear of some consequence if they don't. Of course, love is the most common and potentially powerful emotion connected with sex. The single most powerful use of love as a sexual catalyst that I have read was in ""McKayla's Miracle"" by HLD. The incredibly strong love that is portrayed between McKayla and Amberle makes the sex scenes something you want to have happen. +I hope this has helped someone. From what I have read on literotica, this may be one of the least needed how to articles, as there are a lot of good writers out there that incorporate the things I have talked about. But, if you're new to the whole erotic writing thing, maybe I have helped you write something a little better than you would have otherwise. Fell free to let me know what you think of this article. I enjoy almost all feedback, the positive, the thoughtful and the critical, especially the constructively critical (if you just want to make fun of me or flame me, don't bother).

As for myself, I've never won a holiday contest; some of my other stories have done very well, others have been perceived as quite mediocre. I figure I've made every mistake twice, so am trying to prevent the newcomer to Literotica from traveling the same rocky road. Notice this essay is not called ""How to WIN a Holiday Story Contest."" I am more interested in offering ideas to help you pen a solid, well written entry. If ultimately you are happy with your creation, then you have in a deeper sense won the competition. However, I do feel my comments may improve your chances of winning, as a well put together tale will always get a better reception from readers. When the Holiday Contest is over, many of these suggestions should be useful in submitting stories in general. Good luck!!_ +So, you've decided to submit a story to the 2004 Literotica Winter Holiday Contest. Great! The desire is the first thing. Unfortunately, when you are faced with all that white space in the seeming endless Literotica blank ""page"", Writer's Block can easily set in. Take a deep breath, relax, and let the creative thoughts flow. Here is a short list which I follow to the letter when creating any new story: + **1\. Come up with a Story Idea.** +Many ideas are available for free on the various Literotica forums. However, the best stories generally come from your own life experiences. Here are some questions to ask yourself which may help release the creative spark within: +What was the funniest thing that has ever happened to me or a friend? +What was the best experience I've ever had? +What was the lowest point of my life? How did I get out of it? +The saddest day in my life was.... +I helped someone else when.... +I was surprised because.... +My family had an unexpected time when... +My life changed forever after.... +My favorite hobby is..... +other (fill in your own).... +In general, I would try to avoid common holiday themes such as blowing Santa while sitting on his lap and Mrs. Claus and her husband making it (eeeeewwwwww!). You want something a bit offbeat and startling; many people will only give ""5""s to stories they feel are truly original without being ridiculously farfetched. It's hard to draw the line between unique and utterly ridiculous, but after you read enough stories you will get better at avoiding the two extremes. + **2\. Arm Yourself With a Good Thesaurus...** +I prefer Roget's pocket version, but any thesaurus is invaluable to search for synonyms that can only spice up your writing. I also keep a current dictionary by my side to check for spelling. Last but not least, is a well worn copy of Turabian's A Manual For Writers. The first five chapters of this is The BIBLE for any aspiring story writer. I refer to this source constantly for punctuation and capitalization queries, quotation mark problems, and practically any structural writing issue. Give a copy to your writer friend for Christmas and you will get many ""brownie points."" + **3\. Choose a Category Carefully.** +This is not as obvious as it seems. The fact of life is that some categories are read more than others. Incest/Taboo will certainly get your tale thousands of views, but the folks there are quite picky. It won't do your story much good in the contest to have 100 votes but a rating of 4.0. Other well read categories are First Time, Erotic Couplings, and Loving Wives. I would avoid Celebrities, Erotic Horror, Fetish, Non-Human, and Non-Erotic until you get more experience. Please be aware that Literotica has the right to change your suggested story category. They are doing this to give your story the best chance of getting the required votes and most appropriate exposure. + **4\. Outline Paragraphs.** +There is a twofold reason for this. First, to keep you thinking about using paragraphs (your story will be rejected if it is just one long paragraph) as well as improving the ultimate flow and structure of your story. For example, here is a potential paragraph outline for a tale about a Christmas Strip Poker Party: +Introduction +Guests arrive +Game starts +Pants/dresses come off +Foreplay through underwear +Underwear comes off +Oral sex contest +Santa arrives unexpectedly +Santa joins game and gives out sexual gifts +Santa goes back To the north pole +Conclusion +Granted, some stories are much more complicated than this, but the outlining paragraph technique will work for ANY SUBMISSION. Once you start doing this religiously, you will notice how much better your stories flow and how easy they are to read. Such tales tend to be voted higher at Literotica. Nothing is more frustrating then reading a perfectly good story line that is marred by poor paragraphing and illogical tense/time changes. Don't let your story fall into mediocrity, proper paragraphing will make it look better on the long Literotica ""pages"" and be all the more inviting to the reader. + **5\. Keep a Good Balance of Sex to the Other Story Elements.** +Most readers will want a Holiday Contest entry to be more than just a quick ""stroke story."" You will want the sex to be the ample icing on the cake, and in general a good rule of thumb is for at least half the paragraphs to be sexual in nature. A reader will become frustrated if you offer good detail leading to the sex scene, then suddenly describe the characters' lovemaking like a weatherman giving a five day forecast! After all, this is Literotica.com. If your story contains no sex or merely implied nooky, consider using the Non-Erotic category. Otherwise, you are just asking for low votes. + **6\. Make Your Sex Scenes Very Detailed.** +This dovetails with the above. A good sex scene has remarkable detail which appeals to all the senses. For example, if you have a man giving a women oral sex, think about including the following: +What does her clit FEEL like to the tongue? +What does her pussy SMELL like? +What SOUND does the tongue slithering along her pubic hairs make? +What does her love box LOOK like? +What do her love juices TASTE like? +If anything, err on too much detail to add to the hot scene you are creating. Also, be very careful to make your story appealing to BOTH sexes. Some male writers take great pains to describe a woman's panties and bra, but all the men in their stories go ""commando."" Remember, you are writing for the entire Literotica audience, not just yourself. + **7\. Come Up With an Effective Ending.** +This is actually quite difficult. Nothing ruins a story faster than a predictable, commonplace conclusion. You want a neat little twist that isn't farfetched or ridiculous. I always have the ending to my story in mind before I write even one word of it. Some writers work backwards from the ending...if that approach works for you, by all means use it. Read Literotica authors you admire frequently, and note how they create fascinating endings. You want the reader to think ""Wow, that was such a great last scene!"", not back click in disappointment to the next contest entry. +Another approach is to write several possible endings out, then try them on your friends. Gauge their reactions, then pick the story conclusion that feels the best to you. A great deal of what goes into effective writing is instinctual. After a while, you will just know that a particular ending is effective, through your increased writing experience. + **8\. And While You Are Waiting...** +While you are waiting for your Holiday Contest Story to appear on Literotica, consider giving fair Public Comments to other stories. A fair Public Comment necessitates explaining any negative observations. Don't just say ""This story is too short."" Explain how making it longer could improve the writing, giving specific examples if possible. I think it is perfectly okay to be honest, you don't want to ""kiss up"" to a story just to get positive votes. Other writers will respect your opinion if you can give helpful advice that is meant to improve their submissions. +Along with offering Public Comments, you may wish to explore the many Literotica forums, to get your name out there and develop a supportive circle of Literotica friends. Here, you can be freer with your opinions, but again let common sense be your guide. If you say something insulting and outrageous, expect something equally insulting and outrageous in return. On the other hand, there is no need to be a Goody Two Shoes either. Just be honest, acknowledging your own personal quirks in the process. It's fun to meet new friends on Literotica, as you can bounce writing ideas off each other and learn from the process. + **9\. My Story Is Posted!** +Nothing is more scary than checking the ranking of your new Holiday Contest Entry for the first time. However, whatever the ranking, please be aware that ""1"" bombs are weeded out at the end of the contest as well as any duplicate or irregular votes. In the final analysis, anyone that has the guts to enter a Literotica Holiday Contest and subject themselves to one-bombers, assorted trolls, and potential negative Public Comments is already a winner. Learn from the winning entries, even if you disagree that they are the best. Remember, there will always be another contest down the pike, and your basic goal is to have fun while improving your writing skills! + **10\. Good Luck!** +I sincerely hope all of you have a wonderful holiday season and that Santa brings you a new year filled with joy and wonder...and good sex! +Best, Sack" +538,How to Write a How-To,Noira,How To,2011-02-01,2011-02-01,2022-01-04 08:34:35,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-a-how-to,Contribute your brilliance to the world! (Contains sarcasm.),"['Brilliance', 'Knowledge', 'Literary', 'Presentation']",4.5,"In the end, you know perfectly well that you are the source of all knowledge that ought to be impacted into the world. You are intelligent, smart, and witty and you have things that need to be said. But how will you impact your brilliance into the world? +WRITE A HOW-TO SOMETHING ARTICLE, of course! What is that, you say? You don't know how to write a how-to article? Then today's your lucky day. +How to write a how-to article. +Step one: become brilliant. You can't very well instruct the world in how to take over the universe in seven easy steps if you don't know a damn lot about taking over the world. So get started. Crack out your evil villain lair, hire a few minions, dig out encyclopedias and read up on what you want to know. Knowledge is the first step in the path to imparting your brilliance to the world, and you can only get smarter. +Once you become an intelligent super-genius, only then can you possibly think to write an article on how to do something or another. +Step two: find a completely original, one of a kind topic that no one else has ever written about. Look, honey, it's been done: there's already fifty-seven articles on blowjobs, one hundred and twenty-six on other forms of oral sex, and probably seventy-three on aural sex besides. But then, this is the internet. Anything and everything that you can possibly think of has already been done. You will always be unoriginal. Check originality off of your list and pick something you're passionate about. +You don't want to write the same article as Joe Blowjob over there. You want to write your article, and presenting your originality to the world requires a touch of passion. Find something you're absolutely passionate about and learn everything there is to know about this topic. Then get writing. Maybe you've grown a new type of orchid. Maybe you can wire-wrap jewelry. Maybe you know how to code a webpage. Whatever your passion is, someone else has probably written an article about it already, but that doesn't have to stop you. +Pick something you know well, and feel would be well received. +Or even just pick what you know well. Popularity isn't everything. Certainly it helps to tailor to your audience—on Literotica a how-to article about sex will be best received, but on a jewelry site, a how-to on making earrings would be better appropriate to your audience than a titillating instructional video on giving blowjobs (using a banana as a guide, of course). But both sites would appreciate an article about making penis jewelry. Use your discretion. +Step three: Condense your knowledge into a nutshell. Sure, there might be a billion and twelve different ways to use a paperclip but most people probably don't give a damn. Particularly on the internet, brevity is a virtue. Write out draft one of your article, and then condense, condense, and condense some more. If you find yourself going on at length, consider breaking your article into multiple pieces. +Optimally a how-to article should consist of an introduction to the topic and a few simple steps that can be followed to reach the end goal, whether that be orgasmic bliss or a rather interesting piece of jewelry to be passed down for generations to come. It doesn't need to be an essay twelve pages long. You're not writing a thesis, just a simple instructional piece. +Step four: learn to write. An article riddled with grammatical errors is inevitably going to receive ridicule. You don't have to have a bachelor degree in English to be able to write, but you should know how to spell common words (invest in spellcheck) and how to tell the difference between your and you're; their, they're and there; and it's and its. An understanding of commas is critical. It's certainly to your benefit to know how to craft an appealing sentence. +Remember, if you're going to use a literary medium to present information to an audience, it's up to you to know how to use that medium to the fullest. If you were making a video tutorial, then you would want to use that in ways that written instructions couldn't manage: showing visual instructions and writing instructions are two very different things. +The advantage to a literary medium is, of course, that it can be quickly reproduced. Where someone cannot print out a video, they can print off a copy of instructions before going to their workshop. +Not everything requires a video or images. Instructions on jewelry crafting may be best served with a hearty helping of JPGs but a good, sexy how-to may only require your imagination and the best of words to lead the audience down the right path. Some people may be put off by pornographic imagery. +Consider also what you're writing about. Where any artistic how-to ought to come complete with pictures, and an acting how-to definitely ought to have a video, a writing how-to would be best delivered with text and style. +When you're writing instructions, it's up to you to invest your time in understanding the literary medium, and then injecting your voice and a good bit of wit to balance out the droll. Not only should you know the basic minutiae of grammar, but you should be able to best chose your words to create visuals, carve out the instructions clearly in your reader's mind, and hopefully give them a bit of a smile along the way. Why do you think people go to the internet for snappy blogs with a good sized spoonful of brevity rather than tedious textbooks written by aging professors from 1818? A short and memorable lesson does a world of good for the modern learner. Keep it short, funny, and sweet for the best chance of your instructions sinking in. +Step five: write your article! Combining your knowledge, an understanding of writing, and a bit of humor, make sure everyone knows that there are twenty- six ways to use an old t-shirt while having sexual relations with a handmade chair. +Remember, only you can write your article. Everything else is just style." +539,How to Write a Novel,Noira,How To,2012-01-16,2012-01-16,2022-01-04 08:34:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-a-novel-1,Getting through the plagues that plague draft one.,"['Novel', 'Story', ""Writer'S Block"", 'Writing']",4.5,"**How to Write a Novel** + _Making it through the plagues that plague writers._ +Ideas strike like meteors upon an unsuspecting moon. In the fallout of debris, an idea occurs to you: hey, what if... You hurl yourself towards your instrument of writing and in the aftermath of the explosion, words trickle from your brain and into your fingertips. A novel is crafted. Triumphantly, you write the words ""The End"" and post your work of magnificence. +At least, ideally, that's the way it would go. But let's be honest. There's one hundred and fifty different ways that writer's block can and will plague the aspiring writer and as soon as you snare that idea and drag it kicking and screaming back to your computer, they'll start whispering to you from the shadows. + _You're not good enough._ +Bullshit, you say, and sit down. +Now that your ass is planted in the seat, let's get started with the Plagues that Doom Writers. (Why yes, they probably do ride pale horses.) + **1: Getting Started: the idea.** +Welcome to no-man's land. You don't even have a blank page to carry you forward here, you only have the almighty power of your imagination. Fortunately, if you're here, you've probably been gifted at the very least the power to appreciate other people's sheer power of imagination and that's all you need. +Say it with me: there is no such thing as an original story. +It's all been done. So just relax and get over it; who cares if someone else wrote a story about a lesbian in outer space? It's the conception that needs to be original. If you can't make it past step one, you don't deserve to panic in the oncoming steps of novelling glory. Fuck your worries about not being original in their tight and sensual anus and just roll with something that you are genuinely interested in writing. +Remember, you're going to have to edit the damn thing to hell and back again later. Go read some novels if you don't have any ideas, or look at some pictures, or watch a movie, or go for a walk. Look at things through new eyes. Come back when you have something you're interested in. Finding an idea should be the easiest part of this task. You need some things to be easy. + **1.5: The intermission.** +Now that you have an idea, you have to do something with it. Is it all in your head, or do you write fifty-seven pages of outline? One cryptic note, or an entire computer program dedicated to the worldbuilding? +If you don't know which is the best option to pursue, think about it in terms of this: +No outlining will mean you are entirely fueled by the energy of the initial implosion and any energy you can generate along the way. This can lead to very exciting crashes and burns in the middle of the story. +Outlining means you have to wait to start, but when you're about to crash, you have something you can look at that'll remind you of that initial thrill. Also, it will hold you on target, making for less editing at the end. +It may seem like outlining is the way to go, but just allowing your imagination to go wild can bring out plot twists and characterization you hadn't considered in the first place. Freeing your twisted brain to work on a story can make for far more interesting twists. But it can also lead to crashes. Do you want to write a novel fueled entirely by caffeine and your wild, coffee-addled mind? Or do you want to write a controlled novel fueled by an outline crafted by a genius? +If you still can't decide, just write the damn thing already. + **2: So, now you have an idea. Or maybe a panic attack.** +Welcome back to your computer chair. Start writing. Effortlessly carry on until you have story. If you have no problems getting started, skip to step three. It has some trauma for you. +Still here? Not so easy, was it? OHGODWHYISTHEPAGESOBLANK. Yeah, I hear you. It's like flying through a cloud. All of the white...why is it so white...sob... +You know there are wonderful ideas to be unearthed, but underneath that blank white page, you can't find them. You can't do this. What if you fuck up the page? The first sentence needs to be brilliant. The first paragraph needs to grip your readers intently to the page. The first _page_ , now, that's an even bigger doozy. You can't guarantee that an editor will even look past the first couple of pages. The first chapter has to be perfect. PERFECT. +The empty air holds you hostage. What are you going to do? How do you start it? You write sentences, you erase them before you even reach the period. +Stop panicking. +The first page doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be a building block. You can come back and edit it. Breathe. While the first page still has to be perfect... it has to be perfect for your story, and remember, you haven't written it yet. + **2.5: Onwards!** +This is where your decision for whether or not to outline is going to really shine, or crash and burn in a haze of glorious smoke. Once you've made it past that hurdle of the outline, you're in brand new territory, and it is beautiful, a landscape of hills glistening with the sun and valleys where shadows lurk and whisper and natter and sing off-key. +Writing is a very psychotic dance, where on one day you're the king of the hill and the next you're stumbling into the valley of goblins gnawing on your flesh. You're high, you're low, you're hallucinating dreams of characters and can't understand why your main character's mother had to show up on the moon... +Do you trust your instincts? Do you trust your outline? +You've made it past page one, but you haven't made it past... + **3: The Dreaded Late Middle** +If you wrote an outline, this is surely where your outline devolved into ""and they go to the space station and stop the bad guys"". Or you didn't outline and you have no idea how to get to the bad guys. Or you outlined a vast bible of your novel and your characters are flat and you don't know why you outlined twelve pages of this shit. On the far distant side you can see your thrilling climax, but you've still got to drive through Winnipeg in the winter with your mother-in-law to get there. +Everything's come undone. Your glorious plot is falling to pieces. You can't find the threads. Your characters are strangers doing strange things and the bad guys seem more interesting now and the climax seems to be on the far side of a really, really dark valley full of boring things to write. +Once you make it down, through the archway and into the darkness, it's even worse. On the sides you can hear the whispers of more exciting plots calling to you from the chasm. The valley of death isn't a valley of death, it's a valley of new and exciting novels. + _Write me_ , they whisper. _Write me instead._ And they present illusions to you of interesting lead characters with fascinating problems and curious friends. Of strange worlds just waiting to be uncovered. Of a grand conspiracy. Of an ancient tomb. +Don't listen to them. They're just trying to keep you from writing the grand climax where your characters finally defeat the overlord of space! Would you cheat yourself of that glorious, glorious scene? +Here's a secret: you don't have to write it all. If it's boring you to write, it's probably boring people to read. It's easier to add in words later than to take away your babies, so go ahead, surge rapidly forward into your exciting climax. If you want to write it, it will show, and the longer you stay in these droll scenes, the more likely the thrill of that climax is going to slip away.

A lot of women do. I'm not actively looking. I read some for entertainment value, of course. Mostly, though, there is a general curiosity about who is out there in the world and what they are looking for. +Today, on Literotica, I came across a person posting angrily that no one ever answered him. In response, my thought was ""they're not writing because you haven't bothered to give them a reason."" It hadn't occurred to me before that people might not know how to actually write a personal ad despite the rampant evidence that many people do not. +Once in awhile I do come across someone who makes me sit up and take notice. I may even write to them, even if only to say that I enjoyed their writing. This has led to some lovely opportunities and relationships. +Do you wonder: ""What will make them write to me?"" I can't answer for every woman, but I think a majority will agree with most of these sentiments. You'll be relieved to know that the advice isn't simply ""stand out from the madding crowd."" It isn't about that at all, really. +To Do: +\- Do write with an understanding of the medium. You are looking to entice strangers through written word, you must present yourself as worth taking time to know. You have a moment in which to convince them that you could potentially provide a worthwhile relationship, whatever the nature of that may be. You are ""selling"" yourself by posting a personal ad. People want a hint of what they might get. If you want an answer, you need to present yourself as someone worth getting to know. +\- Understand your audience. You are speaking to strangers for the most part. Antagonizing them, belittling yourself or others, or otherwise displaying inconsiderate qualities will only serve to help them dismiss you. Remember that they know nothing about you. Antipathy and posts that do not volunteer information about yourself make your ad uninteresting and leaves you to blend in. +\- Your effort will inspire effort. Posting a few lines about wanting to meet a nebulous someone does not encourage people to engage in a dialogue with you. In posting the ad it is up to you to begin the dialogue. You should be writing things that invite and inspire a response. Think of it as beginning a conversation. You posted the ad? You take the lead. Give people something worthy of discussion. Dare to write a bit of a letter. +\- If you have particular needs, state them upfront. If you require that someone be fit, or college educated, or blond...... Put it out in the beginning. No one likes to waste effort writing to people who will reject them in the end. You don't want to waste your time. Neither do the people reading your ad. +\- Less important than the above, but always good? Allow your personality to show if you are so inspired. Candidness, humor, intensity? If you can express it well and subtly, so much the better. If you can't? It's not a major worry. In the end, it's about getting that first post up. Most will understand someone being reserved. They will have time to know you better later. +To Avoid: +\- Do not disparage yourself in your post. Do not disparage other people. Do not discuss past relationships. And for God's sake, if you're unemployed and living with your Mother? I'd save that fact for a private email at a later date. +\- In fact, don't say anything negative at all. Your readers will wonder about how you value people close to you if you speak that way to strangers. There is plenty of time to hear gripes from someone once you are emotionally invested. This first ad is not about finding your true love. It is about simply putting yourself out there. +\- Do not present yourself as someone no one understands, or as an object of pity. None of us can precisely know the nature of another's experience. To state it out loud comes across as childish, and that will negate anything positive you state. +In summary, understand that this is an introduction. You are meeting strangers. You want to make a good impression so you can have a further, private, conversation. There is no need to lay everything out at the beginning; there is no need to expose every issue you have. Treat people politely. Even for the racier ads? A post that genuinely expresses a little bit about you (yes! Your age, interests, and personality are important to me!) easily wins over a post that says ""Hi! I am a random dominant male, and you will submit!"" +Whatever you may be? It will become clear with time. +Ads are there to convince people that you are worth the time and investment. +Happy hunting. :-)" +541,How to Write a Porn Review,Sean Renaud,How To,2009-03-30,2009-03-30,2022-01-04 08:34:38,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-a-porn-review,A quick and dirty guide to reviewing porn.,"['Atm', 'Porn Movie', 'Porn Review']",3.11,"Okay you want to know how to write a porn review? There are several reasons why this might interest you, perhaps you found a website that is willing to pay quality reviewers, maybe you just found a website that will ship you free porn if you're willing to write a report on it and maybe you're just curious. Whatever the case is I've got a pretty good formula for mine that while they may not be the worlds greatest they are several notches above the average reviewer in my opinion. +I always start a review by telling you what I'm expecting from a movie, this is based on the cast, the company the stars and whatever they put on the cover. Its important that you know where my head was going in because of course it effects the review, but also because you might have some of the same thoughts racing through your head. I mean if the title says something like ""Deep in Black Ass"" you head in expecting anal. If your favorite porn star is featured on the cover you expect her to be in the movie. There are companies you've heard of and that you're comfortably with. For me I have pretty much blind faith in Platinum X, Red Light District and New Sensations. There are companies that I've usually had bad experiences with like Pink Visual or Devil's Films so of course company is taken into account and then content. I'm not a big fan of lesbians, I still review my fair share when it comes my way but lesbians bore me for the most part. On the other hand even a plain looking girl who is willing to go ass to mouth gets me rock hard in an instant. So start by telling your reader what it was you expected to get before you've seen anything. +Every industry has its own language and unless you want to look silly writing your review (or worse confuse people) you need to have a decent understanding of the language of porn. I'm going to list a few of the abc's of porn here, this is by no means a comprehensive list, some things are going to be left off because if you don't already know what doggy style is there is no point in trying to explain to you what a ATOGM is and since some of these things are legends I'm not going to bother explaining a donkey punch to anybody who doesn't already know. So here are a few things you might be unfamiliar with or at least might not have terms for. +PTM/P2M: Any time something, usually a dick, goes straight from a girl's pussy to her mouth without being wiped clean in between. +ATM/A2M: See above only with anal. +ATOGM: Ass to other girl's mouth +DP: Double penetration +DA: Double Anal +DV: Double Vag +DVDA: Combine the above, I'm convinced this is just a legend that old pornstars tell young pornstars so they'll eat their vegetables or something like that. +Cowgirl and Reverse Cowgirl: The woman is on top of the man facing him, if she's facing away so he can watch her delicious bubble butt bouncing that's a reverse cowgirl. +Facial: Good ole goo splatter of course on the face. +Creampie: When a man cums inside of a woman. It's a waste of perfectly good man sauce if there nobody eats the cream pie. +MMF: Male, male female +FFM: Female, female, Male +IR: Interracial. I don't intend to go into a tirade because I think it is unnecessary. However in the porn industry interracial means sex with an African American. Asian girls and white men, not IR. Latino women and white men, not IR. Black man and black woman. . .sometimes IR. It's that stupid. +I think that about covers the major lingo that you need to know in order just to communicate with your fellow purveyors of filth, which leads me to the next part of the review, the cast and play by play part of the review. Some people like to write this as one big portion glossing over the stars and the scenes and basically giving a thumbs up or thumbs down on the section. I personally like to go into a little more detail, a short paragraph for each girl. There is a reason for this, not everybody is as porn savvy as I am. There are men who could walk into a room and not know Sasha Grey from Jada Fire and so you need to give them a brief description of the girl, especially if she's a new girl they might not have seen yet. Unless her outfit is simply incredible I'm not sure I would really bother talking about it and the same goes for the set. This is porn, we see couches and beds all the time, now if a bunch of girls are getting it on in a shower you might want to mention that. Here is the next thing you need to know. This is not the NFL and you are not John Madden. Do not go into a detailed play by play of everything and every position. Give more of a highlights real. Jada Fire looks incredible in the anal reverse cowgirl and just to prove she's every bit the whore you want her to be she takes makes several withdrawals at her local A2M before devouring her own anal cream pie! Is usually more than enough. You want the reader to have a decent idea of the action, not start stroking himself to you description. +Extras is where I throw in not only the extra features but anything that wasn't directly part of the film that caught my attention. This will often include photo galleries (like I really want to watch pictures, on my DVD of girls frozen in time when I've got them moaning on the same DVD.) cum shot recaps and trailers for other movies that they want you to buy. This is also where I would mention little gripes, like too few chapter breaks (I'm looking at you Gangland series.) or poor identification (This ones for you Private) of the ladies. If I happened to really enjoy the cover art (Brazzer's Big Butts like it Big 2) or if I completely hated the opening credits. +I think it's important to finish with a heading out section. I use this space to explain how my opinion of the film has changed since I started watching it. Maybe it was like Red Light District's Be My Bitch series where I learned that lesbians don't have to be boring. Maybe it was like Shane Diesels adventures where I was expecting average porn and got crap with boat sounds in the background. Its also important because it helps put things into perspective for the reader. I know I don't like lesbians, so an average lesbian movie might get a below average score from me and the reader should know that and factor it in. Another example is a recent video called Apprentass 10. It wasn't labeled as a jump to compilation. So I felt lied to, there were still some good scenes but what I expected and what happened were so far different that it lowered my opinion. So I suggest you consider a similar section. +Above all you have to be comfortable with your writing. It should flow relatively easily, if it doesn't you may want to consider more practice. Of course there is no shortage of things to review in the world. I hope this has been helpful in learning how to write porn reviews!" +542,How to Write a Sestina,MungoParkIII,How To,2007-12-23,2007-12-23,2022-01-04 08:34:39,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-a-sestina,Some history and advice in writing sestinas,"['Poetry', 'Sestina']",3.43,"The sestina, a relatively older form, was invented by Arnaut Daniel a member of a group of twelfth century poets known as troubadours. These were basically court poets who would perform for French nobles basically composing the poems and singing to the noblemen. Their poems were always presented with musical accompaniment. Often the troubadours would compete with each other to see who could produce the wittiest, most complex styles of poetry. The sestina was considered extremely complex and was attempted only by the master troubadours. +While the sestina was a popular form used in France, it also gained some popularity among Italian poets of the era including Petrarch and Dante. Oddly enough its greatest popularity in English occurred in the twentieth century, primarily in the United States. Some theorize that the popularity of the form with modern American poets may have to do with the ease the form fits into ordinary conversation. Modern discourse tends to repeat certain words, often to highlight a point other times just to keep it fixed in the conversation. +In English, the sestina is often written in iambic pentameter. This thirty- nine lined poem is broken into six sestets (six lined stanzas) and one triplet (three lined stanza) and is typically written without rhyme. Instead of the rhyme, the last word of each line in stanza one is repeated as the last work in each line of subsequent stanzas, in a particular order. In the final three stanzas, called an envoi, these words are used two to a line, with one falling in the middle of each line and one coming at the end of the line. For the diagram of the form I will not try to show the meter, instead I will only diagram the end word pattern. The basic scheme is for each subsequent stanza end word to be the same as the previous stanza's in the following pattern 6-1-5-2-4-3, or more graphically represented as follows: +Lines end word 1 A 2 B 3 C 4 D 5 E 6 F +7 F 8 A 9 E 10 B 11 D 12 C +13 C 14 F 15 D 16 A 17 B 18 E +19 E 20 C 21 B 22 F 23 A 24 D +25 D 26 E 27 A 28 C 29 F 30 B +31 B 32 D 33 F 34 E 35 C 36 A +37 B E 38 D C 39 F A +While many poets will use an iambic pentameter meter (xX xX xX xX xX) for the lines of a sestina, I include a free form example to exhibit the end word pattern. While this is a variation of the normal sestina form, the end word pattern meets the pattern described above (poem used with permission of author): +blue sestina +in the night a lonely moon and slow horn song, played so slow a trumpet moan from long ago +so, so long ago remember night the slow horn moan and midnight moon we danced so slow to every song +and one sad song sang long ago we sang it slow that sad, sad night and from the moon a soft brass moan +I felt that moan deep in our song beneath the moon those years ago the very night that went so slow +but fast or slow that bluesy moan in the teardrop night heard a crying song of a time ago and a far off moon +we searched the moon so soft and slow a melody ago with an almost moan a slow, slow song that final night +below the moon on her final night we sang a slow forever song from lives ago to a trumpet moan. +James M. Thompson +For more formal examples Literotica members can look at the poetry of Literotica Poet Angeline who has a number of powerful sestinas as good as I have found in any in print anthologies.

It should read: 'how to capture a song'. A song is not something you manufacture, it's something that happens, sort of like a little literary fart, seeping out at the most inopportune time. Your literary fart might bubble up while you're in the bath, or driving to work, or perhaps while waking up in the morning. You'll roll over, open your eyes, and realize there's a phrase or a melody stuck in your head. The problem arises if your SO is feeling frisky that day and you get distracted. The next thing you know, your idea-fart has dissipated, leaving nothing but the faint odor of halibut. +The trick is to capture the idea-fart the moment you smell it. Maybe it's a phrase, and the phrase fits a melody. Maybe it's just a word, like 'sodomy'. Remember the Billy Joel song called 'Honesty'? It started out as 'sodomy', just like Paul McCartney's 'Yesterday' started out as 'scrambled eggs'. +(At this point, I should inform the reader that I'm pulling this stuff out of my ass, but because I'm a writer, I'm allowed to do that.) +So what do you do with that germ of an idea you woke up with (besides inserting it into your SO's favorite orifice?) The prudent thing to do would be to render the idea onto some sort of media before you forget it. For example, you could take a felt-tip pen and write it on your SO's back, or thigh, or tummy, which could be fun, but a more practical approach might be to jump out of bed, turn on your recorder, and wail away. +What if you don't have a recorder? Dumb question, dumb ass. Everyone has a recorder. If you're reading this, you have a computer, and computers have a record function that utilizes the built-in mic, you know, the one that's staring at you right now. (And by the way, would you mind getting dressed? Your minicam is on.) Most MP3 players have a voice record function. Most cell phones also have that function, although it might be called 'dictation'. (Snicker) +Another recording method is called voicemail. You call your voicemail, leave yourself a message, and then try not to erase it later when you're frantically checking to make sure you S.O. doesn't discover any remnants of that affair you had last week. +The most antiquated recording method of all would be the old-fashioned cassette deck, followed by the minidisc recorder. I have a little silver minidisc recorder with a built-in mic. It sits atop my piano, awaiting my muse like a dog awaits his daily walk. It has a large red button (the minidisc, not the dog.) You push it, and the machine starts recording - no questions asked, no menus to scroll through, no 'device not found' message flashing on the screen. Each recorded snippet is numbered on the disc, so you can go back later and catalog your ideas: +1\. 'Makin' Bacon' - half-time funk (sucks) +2\. 'Let's get small' - slow rock (sucks) +3\. 'I could do worse than waking up with you' - fast shuffle (sucks) +... and so on down the line. My minidisc will record 160 minutes in mono, which means I can easily scroll through fifty or a hundred 'sucks' ideas before finding something worth working on. +Now, the hard part. What to do with your germ of an idea? Spray it with Bactine? That would probably be the wise choice, but for the sake of this how- to essay, let's continue. +Many times, the germ of an idea will be more like a full-blown case of the flu, with verses and choruses flowing out of you like snot. Too graphic? Okay, how about 'flowing out of you like a river rushing to the sea'? Do you see what I've done? I've illustrated one of the biggest pitfalls of writing a song - using a cliché instead of something original. 'Like a river to the sea' has been done to death. It's trite. It's lame. It's the epitome of predictable. We're not trying to write Hallmark cards here, we're trying to create original art that will impress our friends, and, hopefully, get us laid. Go with the unpredictable. Surprise the listener. +So, suppose your song has already flowed out of you like snot. It's time to grab the kleenex (if there's any left after this morning, when you and your SO mussed the bed.) Just because the Muse has given you a whole mess o' words doesn't mean you have to use all of them. Just pick out the good ones. Throw the rest in the trash. This lovely little song you're working on may be your baby, but not everyone is as proud of your baby's poop as you are. +What if the germ of an idea is just a germ? You're SOL, my friend. No, not really, you just have to work a little harder. Perhaps your germ of an idea is just the tip of the iceberg. Your job is to guide the Titanic directly into the iceberg, ripping a gaping hole in the hull until the hidden meaning rises to the surface. Sometimes you'll go down with the ship, sometimes you'll see Kate Winslet, naked, reclining on a couch. It's all up to your imagination. +What if you have no imagination? Well, let's see. You could pay someone else to write your song for you, but that would defeat the purpose of this essay, so let's be creative instead. You could try free association, writing down everything you can think of that has anything to do with the poor little pitiful germ of an idea you came up with. You might fill two or three pages with ridiculous crap. This is good. This will be fuel for the fire. Or sometimes it will be fuel for the fireplace. The point is, you need raw material with which to craft your song. +This brings us to another point, and the point is: what is the point? Are your words supposed to make sense, or are you just writing for the sound of the phonetics? If it's the latter, I can't help you, because I want a song to mean something to me. I don't want to have to pick up the slack of a lazy writer, filling in the blanks left by his/her blank mind. I want the words to kick my ass. I want the words to make me laugh, or cry, or want to fuck my hot sister, or overthrow the government. I want to be moved. +A good way to do this is to treat your song as the joke that it is. LOL. Ha ha. (That came out wrong.) What I mean is, imagine you're telling a joke. The first part is the setup, the second part is the punch line. So the verse sets up the chorus, and the chorus delivers the zinger. If you give away the punch line in the verse, you have nowhere to go - you might as well just write a song that's one verse long, and then go back to watching TV, or surfing the internet, or whatever it is you do to fill the empty pages of your barren, wasted life. +Okay, so the verse is going to set up the chorus. Could we, perhaps, include a little mystery? Draw the listener in, so they are compelled to pay attention? Here's an example: +""I was standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona, such a fine sight to see."" +Oh my god! What's going to happen? I can't wait! It's killing me! +""It's a girl my lord in a flatbed Ford slowing down to take a look at me."" +Cool. I'm digging this. We can see the action as it unfolds. It's like a little movie posted on YouTube, except the girl doesn't lift her top and show her tits. +Okay, forget about the tits. We're back in Winslow Arizona. Imagine if he had written: +""I was all lonely and shit, standing around somewhere. I saw some chick drive by, and I think she might have, like, looked at me."" +Were you drawn into the story? Could you see it unfolding before your eyes? I didn't think so. This is the difference between 'showing' and 'telling'. If you can show what's going on in the song, you can draw the listener into your little demented world, and the listener is yours to do with as you wish. Sure, it makes you work harder as a songwriter, but that's your job, dammit! Nobody said it would be easy. +Continuing with this song, which is called 'Take it Easy' (for all you musical geniuses out there who've never heard of The Eagles,) what happens when the chorus arrives? Well, there's no punch line to speak of, which sort of shits all over my punch line concept, but that's not what I'm getting at. Look at the syllabic pattern in the verses. The words are rapid-fire, boom boom boom, almost tongue-twisters. Now, when the chorus hits, the words are all drawn out, like some hayseed singing on the Grand Old Opry: +""Come on Baaaaybeeee don't say maaaaaybeeee"" +The writer has changed the syllabic pattern. Is it because the writer was being goosed when he wrote those lines? Perhaps, but the point is, there is something new to engage the listener, something to break the monotony. Plus, there are some nice long notes for the singer. +Singers like long notes. Singers like to show off their golden voices and impress everybody, and perhaps get laid later. Even Leonard Cohen puts long notes in his songs, and he's one of the worst singers to ever spit on a microphone. (No offense to Leonard Cohen, who is one of the best singer/songwriters in the history of the world, not to mention Limewire and Kazaa.) +There are several ways besides syllabic structure to bring contrast to a song. There is chord structure, melody, and dance moves. (We'll be skipping the dance moves for now.) +Suppose your chords change with every measure. When you get to the next section of the song, hold a chord for a few measures while the melody meanders around. Or hold a long melody note while the chords change rapidly underneath it. Your listeners will thank you for this. +As we can clearly see (if we've been paying attention) the syllabic structure in songwriting is totally different than the syllabic structure in poetry. In a poem, there is no way to turn 'easy' into a two-syllable word that lasts for five or ten seconds. This is the beauty of songwriting. You can change the gist of a word by how you place it in the music. +Try singing ""I need you"" as if you were in love, desperate to find out for the first time what your new GF's pussy feels like wrapped around your stiff dick. The emphasis would probably be on the word 'need'. Now try singing it as if it was a put-down, sneered by Mick Jagger. ""I need you?"" Mick Jagger's 'you' would be totally different from your new GF. Mick Jagger's 'you' would probably be a model with big tits and a purse full of blow. So please, do us all a favor and don't set your poems to music, not unless you want to become the laughingstock of the coffee house, or unless you're dating a model with a purse full of blow and she likes hearing your poems set to music. +Now, shall we talk about melody? Actually, we're going to talk about melody whether you like it or not. +There is a lot you can do with melody. This can be a good thing, or a bad thing. Many times, when the Muse has you in her evil clutches, you gravitate towards repetition. You become so enamored with your glorious idea, you repeat it over and over again. Wrong! +Look at your initial idea as if it was a boat tied up at a dock. You can either climb into the boat and just sit there, or you can untie the boat from the dock, raise the sails, and take off for points unknown, or at least across the lake for some more beer. +You want your melodies to be free, soaring like birds on the wing. (Yeah, I know 'birds on the wing' is a lame cliché - I'm just using it to illustrate how glaringly awful it is to run into over-used clichés in an essay, or a lyric.) Sometimes it's best to abandon your guitar, or piano, or Apple loops, and just go melody hunting. If you let your instrument constrain your melodies, you'll founder in the same old ruts, going the same old boring places you always go. Cut those melodies loose. Let them breath. Let them run naked in a field of daisies (and don't forget batteries for your camera.) Let them go where they will, and figure out how to accompany them later. +Generally, you want your chorus melody to go places the verse melody hasn't gone yet - like higher, maybe? Or if the chorus is pensive and sad, perhaps you want the melody to go lower. A friend of mine wrote a song called 'Low Low Low', and guess where the chorus melody goes? +With melody, and song structure in general, we have to respect the Rule of Twos. It's a very basic concept; women have two breasts, men have two balls. Actually, that has nothing to do with the Rule of Twos. The Rule of Twos says: do something, then repeat it, then do something different. +Think about it. You do something once - say a melodic figure. When you repeat it, the listener recognizes it. You have now connected with the listener. They're into you. They're hanging on your every word. Repeat that same melodic figure a third time and the listener gets bored. They've already heard your stupid melodic figure twice. They want something new. In this case the third time is not a charm. The third time is a deal-killer, (unless you're Bob Dylan.) +So, instead of repeating your melodic figure a third time, you lead the listener away with a new melodic figure, which makes the listener miss the first one - the one they recognized and fell in love with. Then you return to your original melodic figure and the listener is happy. Sure, you're manipulating the listener, but if it sells a couple of CD's, who's complaining? +If you analyze the Beatles music, you'll recognize the Rule of Twos all over the place. Take Norwegian Wood. +""I once had a girl...blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah."" This musical section is repeated, but with new words: ""She showed me her room...blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah."" +Now what happens? The Rule of Twos kicks in and they introduce a new section: ""She asked me to stay...blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah."" Then this new musical section is repeated: ""So I looked around blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah"", after which the song returns to the first section again. +The Rule of Twos is the basis for most of the music in the Western World. Sure, some asshole like Paul Simon or Amy Whinehouse will break the Rule of Twos now and then, but if you apply it to the music you listen to, you'll recognize it more often than not. It's just human nature. Reward the listener with repetition, then break the repetition to keep the listener from losing interest. +Rhythm is another building block you can use to shore up your pitiful little germ-infested idea. But rhythm is very powerful. You don't want to write a sad song with a happy rhythm, or a happy song with a sad rhythm, unless you're a sick fuck and just like to fuck with peoples heads. By the same token, changing the rhythm can change the song drastically. Take something like: +""I'm so happy I could shit myself."" +Do it fast, and it's a campy little ditty you might encounter in an off Broadway gay-revue. Do it slow, and it's another piece-of-crap shoe-gazer dirge you hear on The Mountain six times an hour. +Speaking of The Mountain, songs generally have a rhyme scheme, although you wouldn't know it from some of the crap they play these days. But the rhyme scheme of today is nothing like the rhyme scheme of yesteryear. Nobody demands perfect rhymes anymore, except perhaps your grandmother, or the people who write praise music for church. +Nobody rhymes 'moon' with 'June'. They'll rhyme 'moon' with 'dude' or 'fool' or 'pubes' (if they're from the LIT site) or 'Consuela' (if English is not their first language.) Go for the unexpected. One of my favorite unexpected rhymes is from a Guy Clark song called 'Homegrown Tomatoes' where he rhymes 'garden' with 'hard one'. If you can do this, you'll definitely get laid. It might be with the gal who sells flower pots and fertilizer at Target, but beggars can't be choosey. +That being said, perfect rhymes won't necessarily delegate you to the praise music section at Kazaa or Limewire. Perfect rhymes can really make your lyrics jump off the page. The point is, what you're saying is more important than the rhyme scheme you're saying it with. +Attitude and POV are also variables you can use to your advantage. If you're writing a song that makes you look like a jerk, consider; will it help your chances at getting laid, or will the jerk angle be a turn-off? Try changing the POV, so instead of you being the asshole who gets drunk every morning, it's your friend who's getting drunk every morning, and it's you who's trying to drag him to AA meetings. This makes you look like a hero, and your chances of scoring some bleeding-heart liberal pussy have just increased by a hundred percent. +Another consideration: make your point, and then get the hell out. There's no need to run your song into the ground. A good song is like a good story: it has an arc. If you build the arc too high or too long, it's not going to stand up. It's going to fall down around your ankles, making you look like an arrogant asshole who thinks his/her shit doesn't stink. Nobody likes that. Do us all a favor and be succinct with your songs. Thank you. +There is so much more to writing songs, this essay could go on for days, but I believe I'll take my own advice and stop now. Just remember this one thing: be true to yourself and your art will be your legacy; be false with yourself and you might make a shitload of money, but you'll hate yourself in the morning - at least until that gold-digging babe lying next to you wakes up and coaxes one more germ of an idea out of you and into her. Just don't forget to push the red button. +* +'Take it Easy' by J. Browne & G. Frey +'Norwegian Wood' by P. McCartney & J.

This form was so old that according to a myth recorded in Japan's oldest book, Kojiki (The Record of Ancient Matters) a brother of the sun goddess recited a thirty-one syllable poem. The book Kojiki was completed in 712 AD, historians have surmised that the thirty-one syllable waka had been existence for some time even then. +Later, the 5-7-5-7-7 for of these 31 syllables became more pronounced in the earliest anthology of Japanese verse, Man'yoshu (The Collection of Ten Thousand Leaves), which was compiled in the middle of the eighth century. This form remained popular through the years as it developed. In the late eighteen hundreds and early nineteen hundreds Yosano Akiko led a movement featuring a more modern and romantic approach to the poetry. Her first collection, Midaregami (Tangled Hair) shocked many of the readers of the time with the bold representations of sensual love. The fact she was a woman writing this way shocked them even more. + _tell them she is enjoying the view of the moon a pink gossamer robe barely covering her body_ +Yosano Akiko +After the romantic movement of Akiko, other movements emerged, one even led by the famous Haiku artist Masaoka Shiki kept the form vital and new through the nineteenth, twentieth and even into the twenty-first century. Many other forms of Japanese poetry find their origin within the thirty-one syllable waka. The tanka form has evolved from the original form so now, waka typically refers to the earlier poems and the more modern poetry is called tanka. +When writing tanka, poets should consider the basic syllabic pattern, which is similar to haiku in the 5-7-5 for, but tanka follows with an additional two lines 7-7. ""While haiku depends largely on the evocative power of images for its poetic effect, tanka tends to be more lyrical and expresses emotion in a wider variety of ways, not excluding imagist techniques."" (1) Tanka is not as restrictive as haiku since it doesn't need a seasonal reference or a kireji (cutting word). +It should be remembered that, like haiku and other Japanese forms, when syllables are referred to they are talking about the Japanese Onji, a part of speech similar to English syllables but shorter. For instance, a single syllable word like ""lake"" in English would actually take two or three onji to pronounce. So, just like most writers of English language haiku these days will shorten the form to less than 17 syllables to more closely match the Japanese original, Tanka is often shortened to less than 31 syllables. The Japanese 5-7-5-7-7 Tanka form will translate into something like 3-5-3-5-5 or 2-4-3-4-4 in English syllables. Like when writing haiku, the point here is that a rigid adherence to the syllable breakdown is not what makes the tanka. +While Tanka in Japanese was written in one continuous line, or broken up in several different ways in their calligraphy, English language tanka is usually seen in five lines or broken down to three lines followed by two. Some Tanka will have a turn between the first three lines and the last two, where the first three lines will be an independent phrase ending in either a noun or a verb. The way you choose to break up the poem should simply be a function in what you want to say and how you feel it will be best to say it. +Tanka can become a beautiful palette for some very erotic and sensuous poetry. The lightness of the form adds a delicate feel to the poetry, while the extra lines give you more to work with than working with erotic haiku. Mari Akiko has a number of tanka posted here at Literotica, here are two from her collection, ""Love Poems of Mari Akiko"" used here with her permission. +3\. from Love Poems of Mari Akiko by Mari_Akiko© + _When you touch me the morning blossoms for your fingers as butterflies dip for nectar._ +4\. from Love Poems of Mari Akiko by Mari_Akiko© + _My blouse opens a window to your mouth your kisses a refreshing breeze over my body._ +The short form of tanka makes the poetry a relatively easy form to use, but like most other forms it will take some work to gain a mastery saying the most in such few words and syllables. Beyond the examples above, there are a number of anthologies of Japanese poetry that feature Tanka. One of my favorites is Modern Japanese Tanka, An Anthology, edited by Makoto Ueda. If you enjoy tanka and want to learn more, this is an excellent book to begin with. +**Documentation:** + 1\.

One of the forms that is appearing in these journals and magazines is the triolet. Much like the villanelle, the triolet is a relatively easy form to learn, however since the poem is so short and tightly restrictive, it can be difficult to write well. +First written in France in the late thirteen hundreds, it remained a French form well into the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth century. The older forms were written using meter, with medieval triolets using five iambic feet per line, while later it became a favorite form for political satire using shorter lines of four iambic feet. +Patrick Carey, an English monk, wrote the first English language triolets, but the form remained unpopular in English for over two centuries. It only became popular for English language readers when Robert Bridges made the form seem more approachable for the readers and English language poets. +As mentioned above, the triolet is a short form, comprised of only eight lines and utilizing only two different rhymes for those lines. While Lewis Turco (1) only indicates that the lines can be of any single length, many triolets are still written with meter. Adding to the difficulty are the two refrains as the first line is repeated again in line four and seven, with the second line repeated again in line eight. +With five of eight lines in the triolet made up of repeating lines, it is very important that these lines have impact, especially considering the refrains also make up the beginning and end of the poem. The three remaining lines must also be crafted with care considering they must tie the refraining lines together while still needing to add significant substance to the poem. Combine these restrictive line requirements with the fact everything is turning on only two rhymes it is clear that word choice is important. +The restrictive rhyme scheme based on only two rhymes can often make the rhyme in a triolet sound forced, so again word choice is important. Try to avoid trite rhyme using overused rhyming words (ie. sky, cry, die, blue, true). The use of enjambment can help in reducing the forced feel to some of the rhyme, so the poet might work to avoid a reliance on end stopped lines. +Many poets have endearingly titled their poems ""Triolet."" While this may help bring attention to the fact that they have successfully completed a triolet, it does prevent them from using the title to add more information to the short, eight lines of poetry. Here at Literotica I have noticed some poets will title the poem and in the title add a parenthetic note informing the reader that the poem is a triolet, or whatever other specific form they have written. While the notation may cause some distraction from the poetry, it does allow a reader unfamiliar with a specific form a chance to see and learn the form. +For the diagram of the poem, since there is no single metric requirement outlined for the triolet, I will not diagram the meter, instead simply show the rhyme and refrain scheme: +Lines rhyme, refrain 1 A -- refrain 2 B -- refrain 3 a 4 A -- refrain 5 a 6 b 7 A -- refrain 8 B -- refrain + Again, most likely due to the difficulty of mastering the form, most well published poets have written a few triolets, but typically not a lot. Sylvia Plath's book Collected Poems showed her great diligence in practicing formal verse with numerous form poems however it included only one triolet, ""Bluebeard."" Some examples of triolets: + _Nocturne_ +Midnight wanes on piano keys The fading notes drift into night And our eyes meet in silent pleas. Midnight wanes on piano keys As fingers part your soft chemise When in the stillness we unite. Midnight wanes on piano keys The fading notes drift into night. +James M. Thompson + _Triolet_ +When first we met we did not guess That Love would prove so hard a master Of more than common friendliness When first we met we did not guess Who cold foretell this sore distress This irretrievable disaster When first we met we did not guess That Love would prove so hard a master. +Robert Bridges +Another example of a triolet titled Vertical Blinds actually won the 2006 Literotica's yearly award for audio poetry. +**Documentation:** +1\.

Of the many different forms that are appearing lately, the Villanelle is a relatively easy form to learn and write. +The Villanelle is a 19 line poem with its earliest origins in the Italian Villanelle, a vocal music of the sixteenth century, derived from similar forms dating back to the fifteenth century. This music tended to lean more to the courtly madrigal than the more popular songs of that era. (1) Later in the sixteenth century the form appeared in France and then later the form became popular in England in the late nineteenth century, referred to as the Victorian Villanelle. +The modern form of the Villanelle has not really changed a lot from the Victorian Villanelle. The nineteen lines of any single length are divided into five triplets and one quatrain, or in other words, five three-lined stanzas closing with one four-lined stanza. Built on two refrains, or repeated lines, the form uses only two rhymes throughout the entire poem. +The refrains are drawn from the first and third lines of the initial stanza, with the first line also becoming the sixth, twelfth and eighteenth line and the third line repeating as the ninth, fifteenth and nineteenth lines. A diagram of the rhyme scheme and refrains would appear as: + Lines rhyme, refrain 1 A1 2 b 3 A2 +4 a 5 b 6 A1 +7 a 8 b 9 A2 +10 a 11 b 12 A1 +13 a 14 b 15 A2 +16 a 17 b 18 A1 19 A2 +With all the lines being the same length, a similar meter or rhythm helps the poem flow more smoothly. Of course, with this rhythm, keeping the rhyme from being too trite or mechanical is important. Considering you are working with only two rhymes for the entire nineteen lines this can present a challenge. +Another thing to consider is, as with any poem featuring repetition, the repeated lines take on added weight for the simple fact they are repeated. If you consider that over 40% of the Villanelle is built from the refrain, you can see how important these lines become. Often poets will even add some variation to the refrain as Elizabeth Bishop does in her famous poem ""One Art"" + Stanza one: + _The art of losing isn't hard to master; so many things seem fill with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster._ +Stanza three: + _Then practice losing farther, losing faster; places, and names, and where it was you meant to travel. None of these will bring disaster._ +As you can see the refrain of line three is modified here as well as the rest of the times the refrain is used. The refrain of line one only changes in the last stanza. While this is often done to introduce some variation in the repetition, others will use the refrains as included in the first stanza. Most agree the Villanelle can be handled either way. +Another form similar to the Villanelle is the Terzanelle which is a French and Italian adaptation mixing the Terza Rima with the Villanelle form. This nineteen line poem also features the five triplets and one quatrain, however the stanzas are laced with the middle line of one stanza repeating (repeton) as the end line of the following stanza, except in the final stanza which can take one of two forms. +Perhaps a simpler way of looking at the poem would be in the rhyming and refrain diagram: +Line rhyme, refrain or repeton 1 A1 refrain 2 B repeton 3 A2 refrain +4 b 5 C repeton 6 B repeton +7 c 8 D repeton 9 C repeton +10 d 11 E repeton 12 D repeton +13 e 14 F repeton 15 E repeton +16 f 17 A1 refrain or F repeton 18 F repeton or A1 refrain 19 A2 refrain + Again, the uppercase letters are either repeated as refrains or repetons while the lowercase letter will simply rhyme with other like letters (ie. c rhymes with C, etc.) +Certainly the Terzanelle is a complex form, one I would not recommend anyone try without working on at least a few Villanelles, and perhaps a few other forms. Either way, once you get comfortable working with the forms they will not seem so daunting. +**Documentation:** +1\. McFarland, Ronald E.

I write erotica. I write erotic fiction. Now locked in that particular genre for the past five years, that's all that I write. +So, being that this is a how to story, specifically how do you write an erotic story, shall we begin? Honestly, I don't have a clue how to write an erotic story, I just do without thinking about it. I guess, after having written so many erotic stories, without even thinking about what I'm doing and how I'm writing them, the stories just come naturally to me. Yet, even though I have no idea what I'm doing, I'm one of the few writers on this site who routinely writes in 30 of the 35 Literotica categories. +I write: Anal, BDSM, Celebrities, Erotic Couplings, Erotic Horror, Exhibitionism & Voyeurism, Fetish, First Time, Gay Male, Group Sex, How To, Humor & Satire, Incest/Taboo, Interracial Love, Lesbian Sex, Letters & Transcripts, Loving Wives, Mature, Mind Control, Non-Erotic, NonConsent/Reluctance, NonHuman, Novels and Novellas, Reviews and Essays, Romantic, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Toys & Masturbation, Transsexuals & CrossDressers stories, non-erotic poetry, and erotic poetry. Having never had anal sex, having never been tied and blindfolded, having never met a celebrity, or had sex with anyone not of my race, I don't have to be a cross dresser or addicted to toys and masturbation to experience any of that to research and feel enough of it to write a compelling story. A bit prolific, an understatement, I've written stories on Literotica since 2007, I have written stories and poems under the names of AndTheEnd, BostonFictionWriter, CarBuffStuff, PositiveThinker, SuperHeroRalph, SusanJillParker, and WmForrester. +Actually, my apologies, I'm sorry but I can't tell you how to write an erotic story. I can only tell you how I write an erotic story. Are you ready? Come closer to the screen so that not everyone can see. Let's begin. +It's simple. Just before I go to bed, just before I put my head on my pillow, and just before I close my eyes, I think of a story that I want to write. While I'm sleeping my brain percolates my idea and writes the story for me. Seriously. This sleeping writing technique seldom fails. +As soon as I awaken, I'm a writing savant. I'm typing as fast as I can to write the story before I forget it. Sadly, I've forgotten more stories than I've written and I've written more than 1,000 stories, more than 100 poems, and more than 7 million words that have amassed more than 150 million hits on Literotica alone. I recently deleted 250 stories from my BostonFictionWriter name to rewrite and re-edit them as e-Books. A slow process but once I have a whole library of e-Books to generate income, I hope my patience and hard work will pay me dividends, that is, so long as I can trust a publish to give me an accurate accounting of royalties, sometimes harder to do than to write the story. +My writing sleeping, writing technique of allowing my brain to percolate my story as I sleep works for me and may or may not work for you. I've honed my skill of telling my brain what I want by even having it awaken me at a certain time and it does, right to the minute. Weird. It makes me wonder what else my brain can do while sleeping if I put my mind to it. I've tried telling it to give me the lottery number but that hasn't work yet. +By allowing my brain to think of a mainstream fictional story or an erotic fictional story before retiring by just thinking of a character, an image, or a category, gives me a story to write the next morning. Never having to stare at a blank page while wondering what to write, I don't write anything other than fiction. Writing non-fiction to me is like French kissing my brother. +""Eww."" +Yet, if I wrote an incestuous, erotic story about French kissing my brother then, no doubt, after kissing him, I'd be on my knees sucking his cock too. Again, I don't have to French kiss and/or blow my brother to write a realistic brother and sister incestuous story. Now the aforementioned is as incestuous as it is pornographic writing, that is, until I develop my brother's character by the use of dialogue, description, and imagery and write the rest of the story with a bit of tension. Yet, not only am I digressing but also I'm jumping ahead. +How to write erotica is the same as me telling you or, more aptly, showing you how to write, which is preposterous as no one can tell or show you how to write. If you know how to write, you can write erotica or anything else for that matter. Whatever you write, the secret behind good writing is practice. Just write, write, and write is all that you need to do to hone your writing skills. It helps if you read too while you're writing. +As it is with most writers, my best writing is inspired writing. Inspired writing? What's inspired writing? When I first started writing, as does everyone, I stared at a blank page while wondering, 'What should I write? What should I write?' I don't stare at blank pages anymore. I just write. +How did I reach that place where I don't stare at a blank page while wondering what to write? I only write when I feel that I want to write and I never sit down to write unless I'm inspired. It could be an image, a thought, or a word that inspires me. It could be something I saw on the news or when I was out for a walk. Anything that I see, hear, feel, smell, and/or touch can give me the inspiration that I need to write a story. +When I first started writing my window of inspiration was only open for five minutes. Trust me, you'll know when your writing is inspired. As if you're possessed, the words flow. Instead of having to think about what words to write, you're writing whole sentences and entire paragraphs as if someone else is depressing the keys. I wrote my first story in that way. I knew the beginning, the middle, and the end, even the title of the manuscript and the titles of the chapters too. Sixty thousand words later, I wrote the story as fast as I could type it. It's weird when that happens. +Even though it was inspired writing, because my window of inspiration was only open a few minutes a day back then, it took me six months to write my first manuscript and a year to edit the thing. I'm no grammarian. I hate editing and I respect those who can edit. I'm not an editor. I'm a creative writer. Yet, everything that I write, I read over dozens of times before reading it out loud twice, not an easy feat to do when some of my stories are 30,000 words and that doesn't even include the 60,000 word novels, and 120,000 word chapter stories. +Yet, the more that I write, and I written a lot over the years since I've been seriously writing, the longer my window of inspiration remained open. Now my window of inspiration routinely stays open for hours at a time, five to six hours seems to be my maximum to write anywhere from one thousand to twelve thousand words every day. Only when tired, ill, and/or distracted by thinking of something else will my window remain closed. It's the rare day that I don't feel like writing. Rain or shine from 5am until noon, I'm writing whether on a computer or by hand. If I'm not writing a story, I'm thinking about a story. +You can pay tens of thousands of dollars to attend college classes majoring in English with minors in English Literature and/or Creative Writing while listening to a professor pontificate and taking endless, useless notes that you'll never read again, once the final exam is over, as I did. Or you can just read, as I did too, before committing yourself more to writing by going to school and earning your bachelor's degree in English with Literature and Creative Writing minors, as I did too. For those who want to teach someone how to write, you can earn your MFA, Master's of Fine Arts degree. +Only, for those looking for a shortcut to become a writer without paying your dues by reading, writing, going to college and spending your life practicing writing by writing, sorry, but there are no shortcuts to learning how to write. Unless you're self-taught, wicked smart, wicked perceptive, and/or gifted, you can't see and wouldn't recognize what the writer does while writing his or her story. Once you learn the process of writing, there are no secret formulas, writing is just disciplined, dedicated, and hard work. What I like about writing is creating and developing stories. Writing whatever I want whenever I want to write it, it's just me, my story, and my characters. +If you're serious about writing, you should start by reading a good writer, my advice to you is to read the classics. That's always a good place to start. Begin by reading Shakespeare, Hemingway, Faulkner, Fitzgerald, Twain, Dickens, Hawthorne, Emerson, Cervantes, Austen, Melville, Tolstoy, James, Shelley, Wilde, Dumas, Woolf, Joyce, Homer, Bronte, Salinger, Wharton, and Morrison, the list of classics are endless and is a good place to begin before even tackling the endless list of current writers. What the writers do with words and sentence structure is as exciting as it is seamlessly magical. Just feeling their book in your hand before even opening it to read it is powerful. +The best thing that I ever did was to earn my bachelor's in English. Why? Having to read two to five books a day to maintain my course load, reading so many varied authors made me aware of not what I've learned but how much I didn't know. With every one book that I read, there were thousands more to read. As if a disease, I couldn't wait to finish one to start another. Truly, after reading so very many of the classics with more unread than read, it's no longer a mystery to me why so many writers are depressed, alcohol and drug dependent, and/or kill themselves, especially back then before television and the Internet. So very many stories, too many stories, are as dark as the doom that the writers must have felt during those modern times were filled with illness, depression, isolation, and desperate desolation. +It's funny how we all think that modern times are the times that we are living now when they're not. We only have to look back to the prior centuries to know that we're the same fools that our ancestors were in believing that they were living in modern times. I suspect that modern times haven't happened yet and won't happen until humans have evolved much more than they have now. Now, with still so much crime, illiteracy, greed, and hunger, not much better than our cave dwelling ancestors, we're all still barbarians under the surface. +Honestly and seriously, I'm sorry to write this but... No one can teach you how to write. Either you have it in you to want to write or you don't. Those of you who are real writers with some level of home schooling, talent, and/or college credits know what I mean. Yeah, sure, a teacher can teach you all the rules of grammar, a literature professor can broaden your horizons by giving you a list of which classics in literature to read, and/or a creative writing professor can teach you the basics of good creative writing. After leading you, they can't force you to write. They can't sit beside you while you're alone in a room writing, creating, developing, reading, rewriting, and editing. All of that is up to you. +Writing is a never ending process. Writing is discipline. Writing is loneliness. Most times exciting, writing can be boring, and/or stressful. Writers are cursed because writing is something that we must do. Writing is our passion and our cross to bear while seeking the write word, simile, metaphor, or imagery. +Always so critical of storylines and characters, even when not writing, we're continually creating stories in our over active minds. When we watch a movie, not only do we already know the ending but also we have a better ending in mind. Like anything else, no one can make you write just as no one can teach you how to write. Either you have that driven spirit to write or you don't. For those of you who are serious about writing, not only do I suggest you read everything you can but also take as many creative writing courses and creative writing workshops as you can. Moreover, take a few courses in screenwriting, not so much to become a screenwriter, but to see what a writer does when writing a novel when compared to what a director does when making a movie. +If you're looking for secrets on how to write erotica, there are no secrets. Secrets? Back up. Seriously, there are no secrets to writing erotica or to writing any story. Like everything else, writing takes practice. The more that you write the better writer you'll be. I figure in 40 years, so long as I continue to write, when I'm 80-years-old and in a nursing home peeing and shitting myself or an insane asylum ranting and raving, I'll be a wicked good writer by then. +Everything you do, no matter what you do, is because you want to do it. Everything you do, no matter what you do, is hard and not easy. If something is easy to do than it's not worth doing it. You'd be bored instead of challenged. If writing was easy instead of being so very painfully hard, when done writing your creative masterpiece, you'd never receive that self- satisfaction that you've accomplished something really important in your life. +Do you want to be a better writer whether writing non-fiction, fiction, erotica, or porn, my advice to you is to just write? It doesn't matter what you write. Write what you know, write what you want, and write what you feel. Also stretch yourself by writing in different viewpoints, perspectives, voices, and in a diverse number of categories. You won't know what you enjoy writing until you're writing it. Much like living, writing is a lifelong apprenticeship and the longer and more you work at it, the better writer you'll be. Just as there are no tricks, gimmicks, or shortcuts to writing a good story, there are no tricks, gimmicks, and shortcuts to becoming a better writer. +Admittedly, there are those writers who are gifted and born to write. I'm not one of them. I'm just a hack. Working hard to perfect my craft, my passion and discipline to write is bigger than my talent. Yet, not ready to give it up, I love writing stories, even if they don't sell and even if they're not read. They are still my stories that I wrote, created, and developed. Being that I can only write what I know, unless I stretch myself and force myself to do a bit of research, they are my characters who needed to be released from my head and they are all part of me. +My philosophy that no one can teach you how to write erotica or any other type of story is true with most things in life. For you to do them, you must have that driven desire to do whatever it is you want to accomplish. Much like driving a car, once you learn the basics and the rules and laws of the road, you're free to drive. If you're licensed to drive and know how to drive, you can drive any car, no matter if it's a Ford Focus or a Chevrolet Corvette. If you can write a story, you don't need me to tell you how to write erotica. Nonetheless, just for the fun and sexual excitement of it, let's persevere down the sexy road of writing erotica. +Unfortunately or fortunately, depending upon what the readers prefer reading, this site is filled with writers and readers who mistake pornography for erotica. Trust me, they're not nearly the same. To me, pornography is much like eating plain toast without butter and jam, boring. This site is filled with stories of undeveloped characters and talking heads having sex with one another from the beginning of the story until the end of the story without even so much as the writer naming and/or describing the characters. How boring is that when the reader can't imagine what the characters look like in the story they've invested their time to read. How unfair is that when the writer didn't take the time to show, not tell, his readers what his characters look like? +For me, a story that doesn't have developed characters is not a fun and/or an exciting story to read. When all the characters are one dimensional and are as flat as this page, the reader will never connect with the story. If a writer can't take the time to develop characters, no one will care about the characters and/or the story. If there's one secret to good writing, develop your characters. Once fully developed and once living and breathing, your characters will grab the keyboard from your hands and tell their own damn story, which is the reason why I'm able to write in so very many categories without having to experience so many sexual things. The only time that writing what you don't know is transcendent and dependent upon something else is when the writer develops characters enough to allow them to tell their own story and from their own experiences. +While we're on the subject of characters and characterization, what do your characters look like? Do you know? Of course you know what your characters look like otherwise you wouldn't be writing and/or reading about them. Then, why aren't you showing the rest of us what your characters look like? How dare you cheat we readers out of the biggest piece of your story and out of the most important part of your story? You, the writer, owe the reader, for investing their time to read your story, to develop your characters. It's your responsibility as the writer of the story to show the reader what your characters not only look like but also act like through their actions and who they are through their dialogue. Even though writing pornography may be, writing erotica is not just about writing the sex scenes. +Surely, you've read about thousands of characters. Surely, you know what characters look like, don't you? If you don't, you ought to know what they look like. Before you were the writer, you were the reader after all, if anyone should know what characters look like you should know what characters look like. Right? Characters are different for every story you say? Perhaps, not really, but okay, I'll take that as a plausible answer. +First of all, if you don't know what your own characters of a story look like then you haven't developed your characters. If you, the writer, can't see your own characters, then there's no connection between the writer and the reader and the reader won't read your story. Tell me. Whether you're a writer or a reader, what do your characters look like? C'mon. I want to know. You've already hinted at a character description by naming your story the Life of Emma or Jesse Gets a Job. What do Emma and/or Jesse look like and, as important, why do they do the things that they do? Being that they're based upon a human, perhaps they do something totally out of character. +Do you have a favorite description of characters because even if you say that you don't, I dare write that you do. I know that I do. My favorite characters somehow always tend to look much like me, tall, blonde, busty, and with blue eyes. As a writer, I can only write what I know and all that I need to do is to look at myself in the mirror to see a character that I'd like to write about and most times that's me. Yet, not all my characters look like me. I'm free to imagine any and all kinds of characters. Yet, I'm cheating the reader by keeping all of that character information to myself by not developing my characters fully so that the reader can see and feel what I see and feel when they read about my characters in the story that I wrote. +Looks are arbitrary anyway. Being that I'm an American living in America, I think I'm good looking and there are as many who would agree as there are as many who would disagree. Yet, when we travel the world, because I don't look like the woman of their land, whether they are Asian, African, or Arabian, I may be deemed unattractive, totally disgusting, even. +By the writer allowing the reader to see and feel our characters is the reason why we need the writer to lead us to where we, the reader, need to go to understand the story through character development. Without using a heavy hand and weighing down the story with lecturing narrative and writer intrusion, instead with just a gentle nudge, a good writer can put us in that special place of suspended disbelief to actually believe that the fictional characters we are reading about are actually living, breathing, and real. How cool is that? For just the price of a book, the magical entertainment of suspended disbelief is wicked cool to me. +Truly, the characters that you read about are more your characters than they are the writers' characters. For sure, the characters that you read about in my story are not the characters that I created but are ones that you morphed in your mind to fit the people that you've met in your life. Even if I described every detail of my character, which no good writer ever would do because that would be boring, you'd have a different perception of my character than I do. Based on your life's experiences, you'd have your own perceptions. You'd take my characters and add your own physical descriptions and traits by comparing them to people you've met in your life and people that you know, like, love, and hate. In that regard, essentially, my characters are more your characters than they are mine. +Yet, when a writer doesn't take the time to develop characters well enough to make the reader see and feel them, the reader will never bond with them or with the story. In essence, having invested so much of your precious time to read a story, you'll feel frustrated. You'll feel cheated. Yet, before you rashly and too harshly judge the amateur and professional writers who write for Literotica, keep in mind that we writers write for free. We writers write for your entertainment and for your emotional, physical, and sexual satisfaction and personal gratification. +We writers need your votes, your comments, and your feedback for us to write a better story. Think of voting for the story that you read as applause. Surely, if you attended a live performance you wouldn't insult the performers by not applauding them. So why is it that so many readers, 99.95% of them, sadly and frustratingly, a real statistical number, don't vote? Moreover, 99.995% of readers don't make a comment. Based solely on my numbers posted to my stories and what other writers have complained about too, one reader out of every thousand readers who opens my stories actually votes and one reader out of every ten thousand readers who opens my stories leaves a comment. +The small amount of voting and reader interaction with writers is as shocking as it is disappointing. We writers aren't machines pumping our stories. We're human. We're readers too, just like you. +Now, of course, I have no way of knowing how many readers who open my stories even read my stories, yet that's neither here or there. The lack of voting support and comment feedback are still dismally and disturbingly low, especially after we writers go through the hard work to write the best story that we can write for you for free. We writers write here for free and because we are writers driven to write and must write, the very least that you, the reader, can do is to applaud us by giving us your vote, your feedback, and/or your constructive criticism. Please, I ask you to do that for us. +If the writer is a decent enough writer they'll use imagery, as well as description, to show their characters. It's not enough that a writer writes that she's blonde, blue-eyed, and busty and it's unforgivable for a writer to dump everything to know about the character in one sentence or even in one paragraph. It's always better to weave the character's descriptions and personality traits throughout the story so that the reader is mindfully reminded of what the character not only looks like but acts like too. +Moreover, we want to know more about the antagonist and protagonist than just their physical appearance. What kind of person is she? Is she a bitch or a virgin? Does she cheat on her taxes? Does she kick her dog? Does she even have a dog? What kind of dog does she own? Or maybe she prefers cats? What kind of car does she drive? Does she drive fast or slow? Or maybe she's not a woman but a man, a bald man, a fat man, a gay man, a macho man, a sports man, a man with a beard, mustache, tattoo, or scar. +Much like this story, How to Write an Erotic Story, this site is filled with stories of narrative with little or no dialogue to break up the endless black words that fill the page and to give the readers a chance to catch their breaths and rest their eyes. This site is filled with stories of faceless, nameless people fucking and sucking. Sex, sex, and sex, instead of writing a real story with developed characters, it's as if the writer is stiff arming the reader by distancing the reader while distracting the reader with just sex and more sex. Writing just about sex doesn't constitute a story. +While keeping all of the character development and imagery in his or her head, it's as if the writer is writing the story that he or she'd like to read to masturbate to while reading their own story. They write stories that are truncated and missing important pieces of information for the rest of us to understand, feel, and even follow the progression of their story. They write stories that remain more in their mind than what they've written on their computer. A story written in that way will never be remembered if even read. A story like that is just pure pornography and not erotica. +Now there's nothing wrong with writing pornography. Pornography serves a need, so long as it doesn't involve minors and unnecessary violence. Most stories written on the site are more pornographic than they are erotic. Most readers who come to the site prefer reading pornography than they do erotica. If pornography is what you want to write and if that's what your readers want to read, good for you. You're writing to your audience. Yet, don't bash me and my stories because I don't write pornographic stories. I write erotic stories. Unfortunately most writers and readers mistake porn for erotica. Vastly different, it's not nearly the same. +Think of pornography as a stripped Honda Civic, a car to get you from here to there, just as a pornographic story will get you from horny to aroused to cumming in a tissue. Good luck with that. Now that you porn readers are already done masturbating, it's time for the rest of us erotic readers to read some erotica. Just wondering. For those of you even knowing what a Honda Civic is, did you see the car in your mind's eye? You did? Really? You saw the car? What color was it? What year was it? Was it a four door Civic or the more sporty two door? +Now think of erotica as a brand new, custom made Bentley Continental GT with shiny, chrome wheels and a two tone, true blue over steel blue, metallic painted and hand rubbed exterior. Imagine sitting on a red leather, hand stitched, tufted interior with supportive seats that can be reflected in the high polished, burled walnut of the dashboard. The headliner along with the carpet is real wool and everything you touch is handmade and perfectly fitted with the weighty heaviness of precious metals. Do you feel the softness of the red leather? Can you smell it? Can you smell the wood and see the mirror finish of burled walnut of the dashboard? +If only by the name, the description, and the imagery that I painted of the car, you know that the car is expensive. If you know the car enough to envision the sleekness of its lines, you know that it's fast and powerful just as you know the man that's driving the car is rich and powerful too. Only forget about him. This isn't his story. This is your story. Imagine yourself behind the wheel of this unbelievable car. If only your father could see you now. +Unlike the plain Jane Honda Civic, with 567 horsepower and 575 pound feet of torque, I bet you can't wait to drive it. I bet you can't wait to take it out for a spin to see how fast it is on the straightaway and how it handles in the curves. They claim that this two and a half ton, all wheel drive, behemoth can go from zero to sixty in only 4.3 seconds. Just walking up to it, you couldn't help but notice the huge red calipers of the brakes. I bet you can't wait to drive it through your old neighborhood to show all of your envious, old friends. Wait, I'm not done yet. +Now that you can see the car, let's go all the way. Picture a beautiful, blonde woman with mesmerizing blue eyes half your age sitting beside you in your blue, Bentley Continental GT as you motor down the highway. Rid of your ex-wife, no longer having to work for a living, life doesn't get any better than his. If you were alone, you'd appreciate driving this car more but the scintillatingly stunning woman sitting beside you is distracting you from enjoying the Bentley. Only someone so beautiful and so shapely could steal the shine of the spotlight from such a fine automobile. +She's wearing a low cut, powder blue blouse that not only compliments the exterior of the color of the car but also lends contrast to the red leather seats by not overwhelming her. Her sheer, silk blouse is more unbuttoned than it is buttoned. Is she wearing a bra? Judging by her nipples making their impression in the silk material known, she isn't wearing a bra. +Wow, how could a woman with breasts that large get away with not wearing a bra without sagging. If she leaned a little more, you may even be able to see her areola or perhaps her nipple. Gees, where in the Hell did you find her? Scratching your head, between the car and the woman stealing your mind, unable to clearly think, you wonder if she came with the car. +Her short, dark blue skirt that's climbed nearly up to her crotch makes you wonder if she's wearing panties. Extrapolating from that thought, you wonder if she's shaved, bushy, or trimmed. You wonder if this car will impress her enough for you to get lucky with her tonight. Maybe she's not like that. Maybe she's a good girl. Maybe she's a virgin. You look over at her. Nah, she's not any virgin that you ever saw. +Where are you going? You don't care. It's enough that you're driving a Bentley with a beautiful blonde sitting beside you. Wait, what is she doing? What the Hell? Are you kidding me? No way! +You watch her unbutton the rest of her blouse and flay it open all the way to reveal the most beautiful natural D cup breasts you've ever seen. Wow! Only, she's not showing you her breasts, she's flashing her breasts to the truckers on the highway. +""Fuck me!"" +As if this car doesn't attract enough attention, she will. How could she do that? How dare she do that? It's then and only then that you realize that this woman needs an accessory to go with her big tits. You reach in the glove box and hand her the blue box from Tiffany. +""Wear this while flashing Veronica. I don't want you to catch cold,"" he said to her. +""A diamond necklace! Thank you Daddy,"" she said leaning to you to give you a kiss while fondling your growing erection through your pants. +Gees, so busy enjoying that car and admiring her, you somehow forgot that she was your daughter that you've been having incestuous sex with for the past month. +Now if porn is what you want to write and all that you want to write, then you don't need me to tell you how to write an erotic story because erotica is not for you. You'd never consider driving the fancy Bentley over the basic Honda or maybe you would. Yet, after all and nonetheless, this site is Literotica and not Literpornica and it's funny how erotica is always mistaken for pornography. Yet, let me tell you this, if you continue to write pornography, you'll never get the busty, beautiful blonde sitting next to you in a Bentley. With most women preferring erotica to pornography, you'll always be driving a Honda Civic alone with your bad self. +So, what's erotica? Erotica is from the Greek word Eros. Eros, think of Cupid, is the Greek God of love and not the Greek God of pornography. Erotica could be works of art in literature, photography, film, sculpture, and painting that contain thought provoking, sensually stimulating and sexually arousing descriptions. Ah, there's the key. Erotica contains thought provoking, sensually stimulating, and sexually arousing descriptions and imagery. That sounds like porn to me. Doesn't it to you? So what's the difference? +Well, there are a few things that are conspicuously missing from pornography, back story, plot or storyline, character development, description, imagery, and tension. Where pornography concentrates on sex, erotica fills in the blanks with back story, plot, character development, description, imagery, and tension. I repeated the ingredients of an erotic story versus a pornographic story twice because they are important and the major differences between the two stories. Erotica combines the human anatomy with the sexuality and sensuality of art. Erotica is more cerebral, where pornography is more physical. Where erotica is more showing, pornography is more telling. +Showing and telling? What's that? No matter if a writer writes erotica, pornography, mainstream fiction, or even non-fiction, the writer who shows the reader what he or she means by the use of description, imagery, and dialogue will write a much better story than a writer who merely tells the story by lecturing to the reader with endless narrative. Showing the reader uses writing techniques that connects the reader with the story so that the reader can fill in whatever he or she needs to imagine what he or she needs to read a better story and/or to actually see what it is that the writer is writing. Much like reading a history, geography or an accounting book, when a writer merely tells a story instead of showing a story, then the reader is just able to skim the story without connecting with the story, without connecting with the characters, without feeling anything, and while remembering very little. +If you're favorite movie is a porn movie, then chances are you won't enjoy reading erotica. For sure, in reading erotica, there's never enough sexual action for the reader who prefers pornography. So, what's the difference between porn and erotica? Porn is visually and mostly geared towards men. Its sole purpose is to physically arouse and stimulate the male species and the testosterone filled reader, while he masturbates to the story. Pure and simple, with nothing else to the story's benefit and to link the story to reality, the sole purpose of the story is to arouse men to masturbate. To me and for me, and most women and many men would agree, porn is good but erotica is so much better. Geared more toward women, erotica can be more satisfying for men too, that is, if men will take the time to allow an erotic story to unwind long enough to evoke the images needed to sexually excite them. Erotica is the slow burn of a couple's orgasm and not the rushed, slam bam sex of self-masturbation. +Whereas porn is a man cumming in a tissue, erotica is a woman being seduced long before having an orgasm in bed by the hand, the mouth, and/or the cock of her partner. Erotica gets you in the mood, not so much for the pleasure of your hand but more for the joint pleasure of you with your sexual partner. Erotica allows you to consider all the possibilities while porn, once you've sexually satisfied yourself, makes you wonder why you even started reading the story in the first place. Whereas porn appeals more to men, erotica appeals more to women and is often written by and for women, even though there are plenty of male erotic writers and readers. +Whereas pornography is more unrealistic and not deserving the name of erotica, pornography can never go where erotica goes in the psyche. Pornography is a horny teenager cumming in the bathroom or his bedroom. Erotica is Don Juan giving a woman what she needs, a cougar or an older man seducing a much younger man or woman, or a romantic story filled with sexual suggestion, innuendoes, and imagery. Instead of merely describing the scene of incestuous sex between a mother and her son, erotica explains why a mother has given herself to her son. Even though both may be fiction or not or some mixture of fiction and non-fiction, erotica is more believable, revealing, and exciting. Erotica is real life. Erotica is more arousing and satisfying than pornography. Erotica is the appetizer, the soup, the salad, and the full meal and not just the dessert. +Don't believe me? Except for the guy in the back of the room drooling while masturbating, as I'm writing this story, how many pornographic stories can you remember? The same goes for pornographic movies. They are all forgettable. Why is that? Because typically pornography doesn't have a storyline and developed characters. Generally, there aren't any well crafted lines of dialogue to evoke a quote or a memory. Conversely when a reader reads an erotic story, chances are that he or she will not only favor the author by adding him or her to his favorite author list but also will favor the story too. +Just because a writer takes the time to show a real story, to develop characters, to insert dialogue, tension, and imagery in his or her story doesn't mean that the sex is less exciting than the sex found in a pornographic story. Chances are, because of the time that the writer takes to show the reader the story, the erotic story is much more enjoyably satisfying than a pornographic story. Because of the character development and scene development, along with the tension of wants, needs, and desires of the characters portrayed in erotica, erotica shows a more complete story than a pornographic story does. No one remembers a pornography story, they more remember pornography stars and the sexy sex scenes. +If you read a non-erotic novel about a couple in love, because of the omission of the sex scenes, that story fails to show you the whole story. Unless the story shows of one small snippet in their long life, typically, a story such as that is not believable. Whereas, if you read a pornographic story about a man and a woman, a story that's loaded with sex from the beginning to the end, that only tells you the sexual side of the story, that's not believable either. Now, if you read an erotic novel of a man and a woman, one that shows you instead of telling you the whole story of their relationship, sexual and otherwise, that story is more completely satisfying. Erotica stimulates the mind and the imagination with arousing emotions, as much as, if not more than the body. Now that's how I write an erotic story. +The End" +548,How To Write Erotica,LargoKitt,How To,2017-10-02,2017-10-02,2022-01-04 08:34:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-erotica,"A few pointers on how you can sizzle your stories,","['Erotica', 'Fresh', 'Improve', 'Stories', 'Tips', 'Write']",4.44,"I may be no more qualified than others who write sexy stories and post here; but I figured I would share what I have learned from reading and writing erotica for many years. + * The first and most obvious point is that erotica, unlike other kinds of writing, has a purpose and that is --to get the readers sexually aroused. I like erotica with a good story, sympathetic characters and colorful descriptions; but the story also needs to have strong sex scenes. Personally, I am more turned on by scenarios where the writer has used his or her imagination and stretched their vocabulary a bit. Falling back on generic words like 'cock', 'dick', 'cunt', 'pussy' with handy adjectives turns people into puppets. + * Know your audience. This means thinking about who will be reading your story. ""Different strokes for different folks,"" starting with the fact that, in my experience, women and men are turned on differently. Men's default setting is visual: + * ""She strode into the room boldly in white thigh-high boots of shiny patent leather. Her firm cheeks wobbled with each step."" + * Women's default setting is more likely to be on what they hear and they listen for how people are feeling. + * ""She made a point to stride into the room boldly; knowing the women would hate her Ferragamo thigh-high boots with four-inch spiked heels. She didn't care. All the men would be scoping out her gym-toned ass."" If you are appealing to women readers take your time with descriptions. + * Descriptions and storytelling are foreplay. Don't be in a hurry. Tease. It is sexier to keep the couple apart and wanting each other than it is to rush to voracious tongue gobbling. + * The genre you choose to write in Sy Fy, BDSM, LGBTQ, Mature, First Time, Incest ... is going to change the kind of language you use to describe your scenes. People in those interest areas tend to be different ages with different levels of experience and of course different genders. It is fun to try your hand at some kind of erotica that maybe isn't your affinity group. Do your research. Know your vocab. Do you have to experience a group grope before you can write about an orgy? Maybe not; but you should have read enough stories of that ilk to know the ropes. + * Don't be a copycat. Think up something new or original to set your ""nubile by her uncle's pool"" off against a hundred others. What are some ways she appears different to him? Avoid bust measurements. Imagine a real person. What can she say that fascinates him? Why would she be intrigued by this older guy? + * Have a plot; something other than how they get in the sack. What scares her? What scares him? Is there a job they have to do together? Does either of them have a secret? + * How can the sex be unique? What can your characters do with their lips, teeth, tongues, fingers, knees, elbows? How detailed can you get in your description? What might he do with that heart-shaped mole just inside her left hip-bone? + * Don't forget the talk; especially if they are talking _instead_ of having sex. How real can you make their language? What might she say that would send shivers up your spine? Use dialogue; seduction, insults, teasing. Avoid clichés. Just flip the usual a little to make it new. Instead of, ""Baby, I so want to bite your nipples."" How about, ""Daffodil, I'm just dying to polish that puffy, pink oval."" Yeah, nobody would ever say it. But you can. + * Let her climax. Maybe a few times before he gets off. Be imaginative about ways she can get her yayas. Spend some time up in her head. What does she want? What does she need? What can't she tell him or her? Of course men can fantasize too. + * Real people are sexy too. Not everyone has to be a Pam Anderson or Ryan Gosling clone. She can have a crooked nose. He can have a bald patch. Just make it something their partners love. + * It's OK if sex is normal. Chains or buttholes or slave language have their fans, but they are not the default for what is more sexy than normal. Your neighbor's husband across the fence or that mom in the supermarket can make for hotness; especially if they have sex _on_ the fence or in the supermarket. + * Make your cast all ages. + * Laugh some. +I'm sure there's a bunch more. Try some of these and see if it doesn't zing up your stories. And here's a daring plan: Since I can't read a pile of other people's stories and still write my own; try yours on a real human being.

For a few, it comes naturally while others have to work, with varying degrees of difficulty, to get a plausible story down on paper. Many do well at humor because they are usually upbeat, happy and generally funny themselves. I have studied this category for many years, both as a reader and as an author. +Particularly as a reader did I get a clue to some of the secrets of being a good fiction writer. I've noticed that without a doubt, most of the more accomplished fiction writers have some age to them. I wondered as to why. As I, myself, became older, the solution became more apparent. It was as simple as the fact of life experience. +How could life experience help, you might ask, when a young person, just out of school has all the skills a writer could ask for? The know the rules of composition. They remember 'I' before 'e' except before 'c'. They remember how more words are spelled than an older person. So many things are fresh in their young minds when recently out of school. Only one unique thing is missing. Experience. +That's right. Experience. How could that help, you might ask. Well, stop and think about it. Think about the problem, or question. What is fiction? Webster defines it as literature dealing with imaginary characters and situations; something unreal or invented. Hell, I couldn't have said it better myself. At this point, you younger readers sit back and learn, while I explain as well as give some examples by which you can learn some of these examples will do you in good stead throughout your life, as well as your writing. +Now, for you older ones, both male and female, start thinking about your life and others around you. Yes, your friends, enemies, relatives, in short every contact can give you some help towards writing fiction. +If you're married or have ever been married, you have a great advantage. Any number of professions not only give you subject matter, or theme for your story, but will also help tremendously in the writing, too. Let me give you some examples. +Imagine for a while that you are married, living a normal life with a spouse. For instance, picture a husband going over the checkbook and seeing an unusual withdrawal, inquires, ""Honey, what's this check for 75 dollars about? The stub says pullover."" +The wife smiles and answers, ""I saw the most darling pullover and got it. Don't you want me to look nice?"" +He does, of course, so does not question the expenditure. What he doesn't know that the ""pullover"" in question was influenced by a flashing blue and red light attached to a motorcycle and it was only part of a sentence uttered by a handsome young patrolman, to wit, ""Pullover, you were speeding."" +That example, according to Webster, constitutes fiction. Some females might even class it in a higher order than a male, but fiction, none the less. How many husbands, after they have been married a while, say they are going out for a while, and when questioned further by their wife, will say, ""oh, I'm just going out for a beer with the guys. I'll be back in a while."" +In reality, that 'beer with the guys' is a couple of hours at a strip joint, trying to slip dollar bills under a g-string worn by a moving target. Leering is not only approved, it is encouraged. +Young guys don't have to go through the inquisition, thus don't have to hone their improvisation skills. Even young marrieds, as a rule, because they have their new bride, or groom to study. +""Honey, look what happened to the car while it was parked at the mall."" +Pure fiction of the finest order. And it works for either sex. As you get older, these situations arise on a daily basis, giving you a lot of practice toward your career of a fiction writer. These skills are encountered elsewhere, too. +As you get older, you may have children, and if you're lucky grandchildren. They'll believe anything. What a wonderful field with which to practice your imagination. Subtle things like, ""Of course you have to eat your broccoli. Do you want your teeth to fall out?"" +You can claim it's for their own good, but in truth, if they eat their broccoli, there'll be less for you to have to choke down. Hey, self preservation is utmost, here. Then there's always the good old, ""If you're not good, I'll shove you under the bed and let the monster under the bed get you."" That worked well for me. +Marriage and parenthood bring out the inventiveness in one. It's that life experience which helps to make a good fiction writer. Back to the original definition, inventiveness. Just listen to an old married man trying to get out of the house for a while when the wife has a list of things she wants him to do. That's inventiveness. Listen to a lady that's been married for 15 years explain to her husband why she needs to go to the mall. Inventiveness of the first order. +That's the experience that a successful fiction writer needs, indeed, must have. If you check the bios of the authors of the better works you find, they'll be middle aged or older for the majority, so you young kids keep writing, but take every opportunity to be inventive in your everyday life. You need the practice. I'm definitely not saying to lie. No, indeed. Just be inventive. +""Honey, does this dress make me look fat?"" may well be an exception to the above rule. If that question comes up, fellows, lie through your damn teeth if you want some peace, or a piece. For gods sake, have the sense to a know a killer situation when you encounter it, and again, age is a great teacher if you survive. +My thanks to the many mature writers out there who have given me numerous hours of pleasure and more power to the younger ones who are trying. I hope these hints will help." +550,How to Write for a Text with Audio,SunrockSin,How To,2008-12-15,2008-12-15,2022-01-04 08:34:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-for-a-text-with-audio,Writing for a Text with Audio submission on Literotica.,"['Audio Advice', 'Writing Advice']",3.83,"When preparing to write something as a Text with Audio submission for Literotica you will first need to decide upon one of two possible courses to follow. Invariably the Text with Audio submissions at Literotica all either fall into the very popular lightly scripted pieces written mostly in first or second person point of view with a lot of descriptive passages accompanied with very sexy moaning and sound effects or the less popular story written mostly in first or third person point of view and read basically as a narrative. +Keep in mind that, much like the poetry categories, the written portion of the Text with Audio submission will be accepted by Literotica's system with fewer than the normal minimum of seven hundred and fifty words. This will allow writers of the less structured, more sound effect based submissions to simply provide an introduction and then go pretty much free form for the rest of the story. The writers are basically free to create as seductive, sexy and stimulating performance as they can whether there is any story or not. Basically a person with a sexy voice, some well rehearsed heavy breathing and some artful moans can create a wonderful auditory experience. +Keep in mind when scripting this type of performance that the basic strength of this submission is in the one on one rapport which can be easily lost with technical glitches or breaks in the flow of speech. Also, if the words are too heavily scripted they may sound like they are being read, may also diminish the rapport. It is best keep the dialogue, sound effects and moans flowing as smoothly as possible. +The other, less popular approach to the Text with Audio submission to Literotica is to simply read a story to the listener. While a submission can be just a recording of any story already written, a much better approach would be to write a story with the sound in mind. When writing a story you know you will record you can work your story more toward sound, perhaps increasing the dialogue, or consider some possible sound effects, or background noise. +When writing the story to record, the first thing you want to do is keep it simple and short. Try to avoid overly complex language which may be difficult to speak when recording. You will want to keep the story short mainly because as you record it, especially with the higher sound qualities, the sound file will get big. With a big story it simply gets too unwieldy to transmit a seventy, eighty or ninety megabyte story. +If you are writing a Text with Audio story to compete in the Survivor Contest you will need to make sure your text portion of the story is at least 750 words, even if the submission software will allow shorter submission. Also, Survivor rules require that the text and the audio match. Now a slight deviation in the reading is okay, but if the recording deviates entirely from the text, the story will not be allowed. +Once the story is written you'll want to record it with your performance in mind. Now you are not expected to be an actor here, but you should try to take complete advantage of the sounds you use. Inflection in your voice can add context to the words, perhaps bending the meaning some special way. You'll want to imply emotion and action without overdoing it. Again, you are not acting you are interpreting. +With dialogue you will want to impart some difference in the reading for each character's voice, but be careful to remain consistent throughout the entire story. Again, you will want to keep it subtle here, and avoid accents unless you are particularly adept at creating the accent. There is nothing so phony than an obvious fake accent. +When reading a character of the opposite sex, for example a woman reading a man's dialogue, don't try to change your voice to sound exactly like a man, try to simply deepen your voice slightly, perhaps rough it just a bit. You are trying to imply a man's voice here not imitate it. Similarly, men, while reading a woman's dialogue, soften up your voice slightly, use a higher tone, but once again, imply it is a woman speaking, don't try to imitate a woman's voice. +While moans and groans are a key point of the first type of story, in reading the story here, you'll want to use these as sparingly as possible, again try to imply the upcoming orgasm rather than act like you are coming. Let the reader's imagination take your subtle lead and let them see the orgasm rather than listen to you pretend. +Of course some background sound effects can add to the presentation, perhaps even some music but just be careful not to let the effects overrun the story. Once again, for the Audio for Text submission you will need to decide if you want to present a story or act out a situation, both can be rewarding for the reader if you keep your end result in mind." +551,How to Write for Literotica,Bakeboss,How To,2010-02-12,2010-02-12,2022-01-04 08:34:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-for-literotica,A guide for new authors.,[''],4.02,"We've all done it, as we read a story on world famous Literotica we think, 'I can do better than that.' Well why not, maybe you can write a better story but you'll never find out unless you try. You should have a word processing program such as Word, or Works, etc. This helps a lot as it has a built in spell check and will even help to correct English mistakes. +I would think the easiest way to start is to take the story you just said you could write better, now copy and paste into your word processing program. Go through and make some changes to where the tale fits your thoughts on how it should be told. Now read the original and then your version, how'd you like it, was it really better, or just different? OK let's say you thought it came out better, well that's good except now you have plagiarized some hard working artist's story, and that's a sin my friend. +Next let's try a story from your imagination, don't tell me you can't because we all have fantasies we just need to turn them into stories. How do you do that, all it takes is practice. Start by writing something small, not a story, but a scene. Get a picture in your mind now describe that picture as clear as you can. Now read your scene, does it accurately display your mental picture in words? If not make some changes now reread, don't be discouraged if it doesn't work, this is not as easy as it looks and it will take some practice. +If you can't find the words to describe the picture in your mind, then try to fit the picture to your words. If this new mental image is not as interesting as your original, then go back to your words and try to find what missing. Let's say your mental picture is of a woman, that's always a good image to have in your mind. In your mind, she is sexy with large breasts and long flowing hair with sensuous lips. Once you have put this down it describes a woman but still leaves out details of your woman. We now know her breasts are large but how about her nipples, are they erect and large or small but protruding nubs. How about her eyes, are they large and innocent or dark and mysterious. As this is just a scene, you should go into more detail than you might in a story. First, picture her in your mind and describe her in as much detail as you can. +If you're ready, let's try a sex scene, as you can imagine the sex scene is the most important part of a sex story. For your first one you should keep it simple and use a scenario that's familiar with you. The biggest rookie mistake we all make is too many Ahhhs and Ohhhs etc. This might be the way it sounds in your bedroom but it doesn't translate too well on paper. If you feel you need something like this, just describe it as moans and let it go at that. You will soon find out that sex is hard to do well on paper, for basically sex is just 'it goes in and it goes out' and there is only so many ways you can say it. You need to portray excitement for both parties and you do that by the look on their faces or their shortness of breath and the heat of their bodies. +Orgasms need to show satisfaction, again without the two letter guttural sounds we tend to make while climaxing. Just as a public service note here, unless it goes against the story subject we all should practice safe written sex. It is just this world is now full of dangerous STDs and if you can have your characters practice safe sex it will help reinforce people to have safe sex out there in the real world. I know I'm as bad as anybody and I love a good messy cum scene in my stories but I try to sacrifice my art for the sake of the common good. +I know the secret of good writing is practice and as my many critics will tell you, I am not a good writer. Yet I know I have improved and I feel I have evolved into a person who writes stories that I enjoy and if someone else finds pleasure in something I write it's just that much better. I found early on that you couldn't please everybody, so write for yourself, and let the critic's fall where they may. +Literotica has a very talented volunteer editorial section full of volunteer readers who will edit your story free, the one hang up being that most are so busy they take a long time to get back to you. So good luck with your story and if I have encouraged or helped you in any way, send me a note when you story is accepted, I'd love to read it." +552,How to Write Good Sex Scenes,JUDO,How To,2002-10-09,2002-10-09,2022-01-04 08:34:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-good-sex-scenes,A brief list of examples and observations for better sex,"['Author Advice', 'Author How-To', 'Emotional Level', 'Sex Scenes', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Exercise', 'Writing How-To']",4.47,"Writing sex scenes is all about describing everything that occurs between the people or person involved, beginning to end. +In your mind, as the writer, you **must** know what kind of people you are dealing with first before you can write the scene. For example, a woman who is naive, but uses sex as an attraction for men to want her, love her, would have a very different sex scene from a woman who knows what she wants in bed from a man and proceeds to get it. +But once you know them, then let everything happen. +Be aware of all the different things going on. The most common mistake I see in sex scenes at Lit is their **lack of exploring all the senses:** taste, smell, feel, hearing, and sight. And certainly, you can also play around with a feeling, a gut instinct -- a ""sixth sense"" that predicts what may occur. Usually the author's get too wrapped up with the visuals and little else. That's an okay place to begin, but then go back during your edit and fill in the stuff that's missing. +There are **other things** that are very useful to include. Here's a list to consider: +> 1) Are they dressed? Describe the clothes, be specific at first, then edit > for pacing later. Then they must get undressed -- at least part way, unless > this is a ""zipperless"" fuck. > > 2) Where are they at the start of the scene?

Did they just meet? Are they shy? Outgoing? Introspective? > > 6) Then what happens sexually? Are they in a rush and simply unzip and fuck > in two minutes? Or is it the first of many encounters and they just talk > about what they'd like to do to one another, but no real sex happens? + If you are not sure of what you wish to write in your sex scene, then it is best to commit to overwriting the scene first -- too much description, too long of a scene, covering every little detail. +> **EX:** ""As the rain drummed its quiet tattoo on the tin roof, I approached > the wood-grained bedroom door and stared at my distorted reflection in the > doorknob.

It might end up in the final edit as: +> ""She opened the door."" + And it would accomplish the same thing in the overall scheme of the story. But in a first pass, its good to overwrite, then balance your story in rewrite as to what is important to the tale, and what needs more and less emphasis. +A quick word about pacing the scene. Unless your scene is some kind of brutal, sudden rape, then you may wish to consider a slow build, teasing the reader (Yes, the characters are teasing each other, but it’s the reader you really need to be considering here). Little, subtle things occur first -- a button opened, a wry grin, a shiver or a tremble of excitement -- all slowly building towards some inevitable occurrence -- intercourse, oral sex, masturbation, voyeurism, or simply, a touch, a look, or a kiss. +If you've set the scene up well, then the reader has some expectations as to what may happen. With any luck, you will make something happen that is not on their expectation list, but is just as hot. In this way, the read is paid off, not disappointed, but in an unexpected way. This is the best possible scenario for the writer. Your scene will not be predictable, but will satisfy none-the- less. +For example, the reader may have been set up to expect an incestuous encounter between a brother and sister, and now for the first scene when they are alone together on a rainy afternoon, talking. If you want a slow encounter, you might have them talk about anything -- the weather, mom and dad, their upcoming trip -- but have the subtext, how they dress, how they move, how they express themselves as being a subtext that says these two people want to fuck each other. A strap falls from a shoulder, a zipper bulges, a crossed over leg bounces as she giggles embarrassingly -- you get the picture. But in the end of this first scene, all the reader knows is that something big is coming. They didn't fuck; they didn't kiss (maybe almost). Perhaps they didn't even touch, but something is coming. +In the next scene, you need to take the situation further, don't cross over the same ground the reader has dealt with before. Continuing the brother- sister example: Maybe in their next scene, the siblings are home alone again, but now they are playing a game -- Monopoly or something, so they are more at ease with one another, they're talking, interacting. Perhaps they are dressed more casually. He is now in gym short and a tank top. She's in pajamas. Take the sex a little further -- an accidental flash of her breasts, describe the muscles in his legs all the way up to his… Well, you get the idea. By the time these two actually have sex in this scene or the next, the reader should be right there with the characters emotionally. ""Yeah! Let's do it!"" +Pace your story according to the emotional level of the characters. If he's a rapist, aggressive, sexually repressed and horny as hell, the sex will be over quickly. Your story will likely lie somewhere between the slow encounter of the brother and sister described above and the sudden rape story. +Remember, present every detail of your story, writing front to back using all of the senses, then edit for emphasis. Pace your story according to the emotional level of your characters and you'll do fine." +553,How to Write Historical Fiction,jon.hayworth,How To,2002-06-19,2002-06-19,2022-01-04 08:34:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-historical-fiction,Advice to would-be writers of historical fiction.,"['Fiction', 'Historical', 'History Books', 'Jack Jill', 'Story', 'Story Set', 'Story Told', 'Time Place', 'Write']",4.5,"So you have this great idea to set your next erotic masterpiece in the Restoration Court of King Charles II, complete with Nell Gwyn and a bare breasted Lady Arabella Churchill. Fine I reply, ""what did Nell Gwyn do for a living?"" +""She sold oranges outside the theatre."" +I am impressed that you knew the theatre part. At this point you are doing quite well. Then I say. ""Which theatre?"" Your face is perplexed. I am no longer impressed, if you want to write historical fiction you need all the historical facts at your finger tips. +This article relates to Historic fiction, not to myth or fantasy fiction. By Historic Fiction I mean a story that is set in a defined time and place. +Myth or Fantasy Fiction stories are set in some very vaguely defined timeframe in undefined or imaginary locations. Thus the writer is free to invent not only the characters but also the culture within which they exist, an example of this type of fiction would be Arthurian tales from the era of chivalry. Thus these tales require little or no knowledge on the part of the author. If you want to write this type of erotic fiction read some of Aran Ashe or Anne Rice's work. And it looks like lots of fun to write, like Sci-Fi you will be able to create a form of parallel world. +The writer of Historical Fiction has no such luxury of freedom. All writers regardless of genre have to strive for truth, to convince their readers that no matter how fantastical the tale the story being told is true. If the writer of Historicals deviates from the known truth, by telling unsubstantiated untruths the reader will not believe in the authors honesty. So the story being told will be constrained by historical facts. +Historical fiction comes in many guises; the loosest form creates a complete cast of fictional characters. The tightest form inserts a fictional character and or events into a true story. In the second-case the writer is probably trying to advance some pet theory to account for some inexplicable action on the part of the main protagonist. e.g. Why in 1940 did Hitler halt his victorious army and merely encircle the British at Dunkirque instead of annihilating them? (An often asked question) Now say the theory you want to advance is that he was too busy indulging at an orgy! The military history must be correct, as must Hitler's known timetable and movements. The idea will not work unless there is a documented unaccounted gap which creates the opportunity to create the fiction. +By now you are protesting I only want to tell a dirty story set in the California Goldrush of 1849; A simple Jack/Jill Off story. +If you think like that, stop now! Stick with stories set in contemporary times or write Myth Fiction. The writer of Historical Fiction must always be aware that amongst the readership there will probably be experts whose subject is this particular era. Expert Jack or Jill will stop midstroke when your prospector fends off a claim-jumper with his Winchester Rifle, not only will they be frustrated but they will be angry when a well written story is spoilt by some basic historical inaccuracy. To put it bluntly your history buff readers will not give a flying fuck that you got it right about clipper ships rounding Cape Horn or the fact that there was no railroad – you got something wrong and will have ruined their orgasm as surely as flat batteries in a vibrator. +The successful writer of Historical Fiction, regardless of the genre, has to respect the intelligence and knowledge of his or her readers. Having said that you do not have to be a historian, what you do have to be is an expert on the era you intend to write about. I was talking to the author Rosemary Rowe, whose hero Libertus is a freedman, a maker of mosaics in Roman Britain in the time of Commodus 187ad, she said to me, ""I am not a historian, but I have developed an encyclopaedic knowledge of Romano Britain over a thirty year time frame."" She also told me that she uses 6 history books as reference sources. +If you want to write Historic Fiction becoming an expert on your time and place should be your aim. This leads us to research resources, in choosing them you must act like a historian, you must forensically examine the evidence. Do not choose ""coffee table"" history books – they often perpetuate inaccurate fallacies. Look to see who the author is, and make sure that the book contains a bibliography in other words that the author's sources can be verified. If you are using the Internet for your research, you should ask the same questions of the site as you do of a book, whose site is it, do they quote their sources and give links. +Do not trust the claims made in television documentaries until you have independently verified them. Do not be seduced by the ""experts"" who appear on the documentary, remember they may have talked to hundreds of academics whose views did not agree with the programme makers agenda. Then there are always academics who are up for hire – for money or for the buzz of being a media person they will say whatever the producers want. +If by now I have not put you off the idea of writing Historic Fiction then you want to write in this genre. So where do you start? +Well the story line, (plot) will be no different, whether set in Neanderthal man's cave, a Roman Villa, Medieval Castle or a Pioneer Cabin. +Settle on the period and place you intend to write about and read. Read until you understand not only the physical environment, but also the society. You must know what was deemed acceptable and what was unacceptable in respectable society. The social and cultural mores. E.g. Slavery has existed since the beginning of man's history, but the treatment and status of slaves has differed vastly through time and cultures. Slaves in ancient Rome could be employed in many functions from lowly menial (as most were) to respected Physician. Attitudes to marriage, divorce, children, even crime have all changed through place and time. +Age poses another problem that you will need to solve. Adulthood has not always been defined as eighteen, if your character is an adult but under 18 you will have work out a means to convey this without stating their age. The method I use relies to some extent upon the reader's knowledge. +Dialogue is one of the biggest problems – and the answer I think lies in individual taste, I admit I have not yet resolved the issue to my own satisfaction. How much period or place language should you use? +Some authors favour very little, in the case of a pre 19th century story – women may become wenches, bars are called taverns, add in a few peasants and that is it. Others, (including myself) tend to go for the full Monty, loads of archaic or Latin names and phrases, sometimes accompanied by a plethora of footnotes or explanations in the body of the story. I prefer footnotes in my Roman stories, the average reader can read the story that flows without looking at the footnotes, and the history buff can look up the footnotes. +When using modern language as the dialogue use precise slightly old fashioned formal language, do not use contractions. (Don't, won't, shouldn't), or modern phrases or word usage – no targets, mission statements etc. +Recently I have been writing part of a chain story ""Talisman"" my part is set in 16th century England, assuming that most of my English speaking readers have at some time had a passing acquaintance with the works of Shakespeare I opted to use 16th Century English for all the dialogue. To do this you need an extra tool, in addition to your Dictionary and Thesaurus (you do have them on your desk whatever you are writing), you will need a book on word origins. +On the subject of books you will also need one on costume; your knowledgeable reader will collapse into paroxysms of orgasm destroying laughter when your medieval maiden or her knight errant, removes her bra and panties! +Another good history book to purchase is ""Sex in History"" by Reay Tannahill if it is still available. +If like me you intend to write Roman Stories be warned this is one of the best documented eras in history. You will also need an atlas of the Roman World and a Latin Dictionary. I also refer to about 6 books on a regular basis with another 19 I use on a when needed basis. +Unless you are already an expert writer avoid using important people as the main characters, their lives are too well documented, it is far easier to use slaves or servants, for in every age it is a truism that the common people do not have biographers. Another reason is that your ending must not influence or alter history. +A clever example of this is contained in two war films ""Went the Day Well?"" and ""The Eagle has Landed"". In both stories German Special Forces land in England during World War Two, in both cases the action is restricted to a small geographical area and concludes with every German being killed, and all records of the matter being suppressed on the grounds of ""National Security"". +To summarise, do not start until you are confident about your expertise – the feedback mails could be daunting. Not the one word Trolls but wordy epistles detailing where the reader thinks you have got your facts wrong, if you know your subject these correspondents will also welcome your response. The only way to really know your subject is to buy the books and read them, do not bother with the library you will be constantly needing them to refer to. Before you start writing know what your protagonists would be wearing, eating, drinking, what their homes looked like, what their bed felt like. How often did they wash or was bathing abhorred. How old was old, how young was young. At what age did they marry, at what age did they die. Remember in the not too distant past (early 20thC), death was a fact of life; people would put ""IIL"", (meaning ""if I live"") or ""GW"" (God willing) by memo entries in their diaries." +554,How to Write Interracial Cuckoldry Stories,nocluescooby,How To,2007-08-09,2007-08-09,2022-01-04 08:34:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-interracial-cuckoldry- stories,Tips for writing stories in Interracial cuckoldry theme,"['Cuckoldry', 'Writing', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing How To']",3.96,"I am taking the time to write this to help other writers that find themselves drawn to interracial cuckoldry as a central theme. If you are like me, you find the theme of cuckoldry to be strongly erotic, especially when interwoven with black men and white wives. Why this combination in particular? Perhaps it is the vision of a thick black cock being nursed by the soft pink lips of a white woman. It could be a (in a fantasy world, but sometimes in the real one too) primal thought that black men are hung thicker and longer than others. Or, perhaps it is just that it was so taboo for so long, and taboo things are always charged with a touch more erotic electricity. Whatever the reason that you are into this theme, this how to is for you (especially if you have been a lurker for a while and are considering writing your first erotic story). +The first and foremost thing to understand about writing any erotic story with interracial sex, and especially black into white (BiW) interracial cuckoldry as a theme, is that writing stories with these themes WILL bring a fair portion of hate feedback, and negative ratings from a few people. Every story I have submitted with a BiW cuckold theme has elicited a bunch of racist- filled rants of hate messages in response. These comments are different from criticism, and share nothing with such. These messages are from people who hate the theme, not merely the writing. There's even one guy that sends me the occasional message to let me know that he is taking the time to rate my stories as low as possible over and over. +Why do these people read stories in a theme that they apparently hate? I'll never understand that one. Frankly, I couldn't be bothered to even attempt to try! Why would that 'fan', that keeps writing me to let me know that he's taking advantage of the openness of Literotica's voting system by repeatedly rating my stories as low as he can, think I care about the ratings? All I can take from his obsession with trying to lower the rating is that he has a repressed desire, maybe even bordering on self loathing, to be cuckolded. Why else would he keep reading these stories? +It's really a strange phenomenon, this hated based feedback. Every one of my stories spells out that interracial cuckoldry will be the main theme in the opening paragraph, before the story even begins. Yet they are out there; a group of people that, apparently, take the time to read stories in a theme that they find totally objectionable. It's laughable to me that they think I give a shit about their hate mail. I most assuredly can tell you, I do not! Neither should you, as a potential writer. +I know of at least one writer on Literotica that seems to have left the site due to the abuse of feedback, and I think the site suffers for lack of her writing. It's sad, really, that a few idiots (and it isn't more than a couple) have managed to damage the community in this way. +The bottom line for the writer of BiW stories of this nature is that there will be a bunch of feedback emails that you'll have to take the time to throw away. The only other drawback is that your stories are likely to be saddled with a few people throwing bad ratings at them because they hate the theme. +Personally I think the Literotica community would be better served if one had to be a registered member and logged in to post comments, feedback, or place ratings on stories. Additionally, there could be a limit of one each per member to a given story. That would serve both the desire to have feedback, and make abuse of the system less likely. +Now that that is out of the way . . . +As you read through BiW cuckoldry stories you will see that there are several sub-themes that go hand in hand with the main theme. Some of the important ones are (but not limited to): +1\. Humiliation, that has an erotic element +2\. Prowess of the black lover, including his size, abilities, and new places he brings the white wife +3\. Reluctance, initially, of the wife to try a black lover +4\. Feelings on the part of the wife, both that grow for her new lover and change for the husband +5\. Claiming of the wife by the black lover, this can include anything that shows his dominance over the husband with the wife. It can be anything, changes in clothes, 'marking' the wife, and especially intentionally trying to get the wife pregnant +These are just broad strokes from which you might draw inspiration for your story. They make up the framework of most BiW cuckoldry stories. The key to making your story special is to develop new twists while keeping the classic components that fans of the theme enjoy. +In general, I think a good BiW cuckoldry story ought to take more time than less to unravel. By taking your time an letting the story release slower you can really dwell on the details. This is especially true for your first couple of stories, because there's probably a great deal more detail in your mind than you've captured on the page. +How do the various characters feel about the situation? I am a big proponent of expounding on the emotional state of the characters, as well as how they all feel about the web that they are involved in. I think that this is underutilized part of stories in the BiW cuckoldry theme. +Are your descriptions of the people and environment fresh, or generic? This can be difficult because it seems like it has all been written before. But you should try to find new descriptions as much as possible. +Does the story seem plausible? It doesn't have to sound likely, but could some odd set of circumstances make the story potentially happen? This is be a key that can make your story more erotic. +There are plenty of cuckoldry stories that rush right through the basics in just a page. But how much character development is there? I'm not against a shorter story. But, when you are writing your first couple of stories there is a real benefit in taking the time to get more on the page instead of less. You can always edit if your work is needlessly verbose. +Personally, I don't like to make outlines to write erotica. That's just my preference. But outlines do help many writers guide their stories, and you might consider writing one. I would wait until you've got a few pages written before bothering with an outline. The main reason for this is that I think outlines can make a writer constrained and thereby a bit mechanical and ultimately the story can seem forced. I like the idea of having a few pages, then consider writing an outline based on what your creative juices came up with. I think that it could lead to a more imaginative story, which might lead to new and interesting places. +Whether you choose to outline or not, you ought to have a general direction in mind for your story - a destination. How long your character's journey takes is up to you. But having an end in mind can help shape your story and keep you from the problematic 'red herrings' that can dog a longer story. +In the end a BiW cuckoldry story, and any cuckoldry story for that matter, usually ends up with either the husband and wife reconciling back in to a primarily monogamous relationship (in an offshoot of which she might retain the option for the occasional tryst), or the wife falls in love with the lover over her feelings for her husband and leaves the husband. This is not to suggest that these are the only possible endings, merely the most common. But as the relationship between the wife and lover grows there is a natural eventuality that one of these scenarios is the final outcome. +I hope that you found these guidelines helpful, and that you'll be ignoring and throwing away idiots feedback in no time!" +555,How To Write Lesbian Sex Scenes,Colleen Thomas,How To,2004-06-04,2004-06-04,2022-01-04 08:34:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-lesbian-sex-scenes,Writing F/F scenes appealing to women.,"['Breasts Pussy', 'Character', 'Emotional Connection', 'Female Readers', 'Lesbian Scene', 'Lesbian Sex', 'Reader', 'Sex Scenes', 'Time Place', 'Women Enjoy']",4.69,"As the title implies this little article is intended for guys who wish to write lesbian themed sex scenes that appeal to women. While I claim no more expertise at it than other writers, I have been asked by a few people to look at their submissions in the category and one of these prevailed upon me to write this little piece. Thanks Rumple. +The first thing that strikes me when I read most submissions by male authors in the category or as a scene in a different category is the lack of emotive response the scene produces. +The next thing I notice is a hurried feel to the work, as if the author is in a race to get to some goal. +The final major thing is a lack of preparation. +So here are a few suggestions for guys who wish to include lesbian scenes in their works, but feel daunted by the prospect. Keep in mind, the suggestions here are based around broad generalizations. If you wish to include a lesbian scene in a work where it isn't the central theme, such as a BDSM or N/C story, then your overall theme may very well supercede the suggestions. +LACK OF EMOTIVE RESPONSE: Women do read erotica for the simple expedient of getting off, but tend to look for something a little deeper. There is an emotional component to the sex act for women, which seems to be much stronger than most men experience. If you wish to write a good lesbian scene you need to tap into that emotion. Does this mean you need to write a novel or give a complete psychoanalysis of each character to get the response you want? No. What it does mean is you need more than ""I loved licking her pussy"" in the way of emotion. +What is your protagonist feeling emotionally? Why? What is it about this particular woman that makes her attractive and desirable above others? You don't have to delve into romance novels or use flowery language, but you do need to convey a depth of feeling from your characters that goes beyond simple physical attraction. They don't necessarily have to be in love. +Many emotions can drive people into one another's arms. Friendship, sympathy, fear, even dislike can be the motivators. The point is you need to get those motivators across to the reader. +The most vividly rendered and technically correct description of one woman giving another head, without letting your reader know the why and the feelings behind it will pale in comparison to a relatively clumsy and technically flawed description of the same act where the reader can feel the emotion. +It may cost you a few brevity points, but taking the space to let your readers know what your characters are feeling, beyond the physical sensations, will go a long way to making it a good scene. Building an emotional connection between your character and the reader is one of the most fundamental things you can do to improve upon your work. With a female audience it is even more critical. Most of the F/F erotica I have read by men is emotionally gelded. It may work well for a male audience, but it often leaves women cold. +YOU CAN'T HURRY LOVE: Fitting hand in glove with the lack of emotional depth most male writers display is the rushed feeling of the piece. That's also a hallmark of many masculine attempts at writing lesbian erotica. In regular heterosexual (and I assume gay male) erotica there is a definite goal involved. You, as author, are moving the story to get tab A into slot B. In regular erotica this is desirable, as the lion's share of pleasure for the male character will come from penetration by or manipulation of one particular organ. Foreplay is only necessary to get this organ at attention, so to speak. +In the case of lesbian erotica such concentration on one organ or aspect of love-making is disastrous. The pacing of such scenes will leave most female readers feeling cheated more often than not. Jumping straight from disrobing to the breasts or pussy will cause many of them to simply back click and find a better story. +Almost every part of a woman's body can become erogenous with proper stimulation. When writing lesbian themed scenes be aware of this. A shoulder, the elegant line of her neck, her ankles, knees, even the inside of her elbows can be stimulated and produce delicious sensation. I am not saying avoid the breasts or pussy, but I am saying that the scene isn't a race. First one to the clitoris is not the winner in most lesbian erotica. In fact, quite the opposite is true. +Pace your sex scene with an eye to exploration, titillation and slowly driving someone wild with desire. If that means taking a paragraph to describe the kiss rather than a sentence, then you're on the right track. Descriptive prose can do much to raise the tension in your reader, but if you concentrate exclusively on ""the erogenous zones"" you will be missing a lot of what sex between women is usually about. The first orgasm isn't the best with most women so there is no rush to get to it. It is a precursor, an appetizer if you will. +Sticking with the food metaphor, if you are sitting down to a seven course meal you don't gorge yourself on the soup. You taste it, perhaps eat enough to take the very edge off your hunger. Lesbian sex scenes should be the same. Each segment taking a little more off the edge until you reach the dessert, where both partners are sated for the evening. +LACK OF PREPARATION: The third thing I mentioned was lack of preparation. This is perhaps the worst failing I see in male authored lesbian erotica. Tests and polls show that most women are, at the very least, bi-curious. That does not give you carte blanche to throw your two characters into a sixty-nine. Suzy soccer-mom and her best friend Betty are not going to be sitting in the kitchen one morning, decide they are bored and have a go at each other. It doesn't work that way in reality and if you write it that way, it's going to go over like a lead balloon with most female readers. Obviously, if both partners are experienced it becomes less of a concern, but that expedient has its own pitfalls. +In reality, there are extremely strong societal norms that must be taken into account. It takes more than just some time alone with your best girl friend. There is a significant amount of thought, consideration and usually a considerable amount of fantasizing and wondering that have gone on before the right time, right place and right woman come together to make trying it the first time a reality. Even then, there is generally coaxing, hesitancy and false starts along the way. +Unless you are writing a screenplay for a porn flick there is no ""obligatory lesbian scene"". You, as author have to set up what's happening and why. You can remove this problem by having both partners experienced, but in doing so you are putting a lot more faith in your ability to provide excitement via description. Also with experienced partners you must keep in mind each will have developed her own techniques and you had better know how one woman pleases another or you characters will come off as phony. +There is a trade-off in degree of experience for your characters. While the combinations are limitless, there is a tendency among male authors to have at least one character with limited experience and thus allow themselves more leeway for writing something they haven't experienced personally. +Assuming then, that you are working with at least one relatively inexperienced character we come back to motivation. This facet of writing a believable and enjoyable lesbian erotic scene is actually better handled before the first piece of clothing hits the floor. Far too often, to attain the somewhat forbidden nature of the act, authors present one of the participants as totally naïve. Poor Suzy soccer –mom, totally naïve and innocent is seduced by her wicked lesbian neighbor. Alcohol or drugs are often used to provide a plausible explanation for her actions. They aren't. +A far better approach is to make Suzy, just a little less naïve. A subtle hint dropped earlier in the story, about that roommate in college or about her attraction to a certain type of woman, plants the seed in the reader's mind. Thus, when your characters do get physical it requires far less suspension of disbelief from the reader, since she has already been prepared to accept that he character may have an interest. You may still capture the hesitancy, strangeness or surreal quality, mental anxiety or whatever you are going for on an emotional level, while making the interaction more believable on the whole. +IN OTHER WORDS: When you are writing a lesbian scene be sure to reach for an emotive response. Pace the scene with more emphasis on the arousal level than on reaching the climax. Make sure you have explained how these two people, came to be together in this time and place, and what motivation drove them to it. +Just a few other general notes: +PRONOUN PROBLEMS: Be careful with pronouns. When writing two female characters you will find the pronouns she and her are difficult to use. Remember the reader cannot see into your head. +When you say her tit, it may be blatantly obvious to you that you mean Suzy's tit, but to a reader it could be either Suzy's or Betty's. Be prepared to use given names more or to use descriptive modifiers such as the blonde's tit or the brunette's tit to denote which character you are talking about. +STRAP-ON STRATEGIES: If one of your partners is using a strap-on or similar sex toy keep in mind the action is not necessarily natural. While a man, once inside, can let his natural instinct take over, a woman has to actually think about what she is doing, at least at first. +While on the subject of strapons it is true that many butch women enjoy having their cocks sucked. If you intend to include this in your scene don't forget the fact that such stimulation is primarily visual. The only real sensation comes from her partner pressing the base of the toy against her clitoral hood. +Writing lesbian sex scenes that women can enjoy is not beyond the ability of most male writers. Just because you have never experienced some of the things you are describing does not mean you cannot do it in an enjoyable way. The key is not in your descriptive prose nor in the fact you don't know what it feels like to have someone's finger in your pussy. The key factor is your mindset. +When writing erotica for men, you are most often shooting for a very visceral response. For most women, that visceral response is inextricably tied to an emotional response. If you concentrate on establishing the emotional connection, between reader and character, you will find the actual explicit descriptive work is not as important. Thus not knowing exactly what a woman feels when she orgasms becomes less important to the work's overall enjoyability than making sure the reader knows the emotions she is experiencing. +Happy writing." +556,How to Write Other Japanese Poetry,MungoParkIII,How To,2007-12-19,2007-12-19,2022-01-04 08:34:53,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-other-japanese-poetry,How to write other Japanese Poetry forms.,['Japanese Poetry'],4.75,"When anyone decides to read or write Japanese Poetry a common thread in many of their forms quickly becomes apparent. Many are familiar with the basic form of haiku and in an earlier discussion I outlined the basic form for the tanka. These two forms of Japanese Poems follow a basic syllabic form using lines of 5 and 7 onji (part of Japanese speech approximating an English Syllable). This use of lines 5 and 7 onji long is also a feature of many other Japanese forms. +It should be remembered with these Japanese forms, when someone refers to syllables they are talking about the Japanese Onji, a part of speech similar to the English syllable but shorter. A single syllable word like ""lake"" in English could actually take two or three onji to pronounce. So as most writers of English language haiku these days will shorten the form to less than 17 syllables to more closely match the Japanese original, these other Japanese forms are often shortened too. + **Katautas** \- A katautas is a basic form of Japanese Poetry from which many other forms such as haiku and tanka evolved. It is an unrhymed form of question and/or answer with the basic syllabic form of 5-7-7 onji. The brevity of the form is intended to intimate an utterance or ""...a spontaneous emotive word or phrase."" (1, pg. 154) + _Why does the stream run? The banks of the brook bloom with roe and cup-moss, with rue._ (1, pg. 155) + **Choka** The choka is an unrhymed poem of any length using alternating 5- and 7- syllable lines ending with one additional 7- syllable line. The following poem is in the general syllabic form 5-7-5-7-5-7-5-7-7 + _Why does the brook run? The banks of the stream are green. Why does the stream run? The banks of the brook bloom with roe and cup-moss. The grain in the fields, straw men talking with the wind. Have you come far water-borne Here are hounds-tongue, mistletoe._ (1, pg. 156) + **Sedoka** A sedoka is basically two katautas with a space between the two triplets (three lined stanzas), except that the sedoka is not necessarily of the question or answer pattern. The form is marked by a turn, or slight break between the stanzas. Though written by one poet, it can be written as dialogue as in the following 5-7-7, 5-7-7 syllable poem. + _Dialogue_ +I am wearing blue in honor of the sky. Shall you wear green to honor earth? +I will don rainbows; I will wear snow on my back— White, allcolor forever. +Lewis Turco + **Somonka** The somonka is a love poem in the form of a letter, made up of two tankas written by two poets. The first tanka is a statement of love, the second is the response. The following example was written by a single poet, but is written in the form of a somonka using a 5-7-5-7-7, 5-7-5-7-7 syllable form. + _Epistles_ +I am writing you from a pit. It is quite dark here. I see little. I am scratching this note on a stone Where are you? It has been long. +Thank you for your note. I do not know where I am I believe I may be with you. It is not dark here. The light has blinded me. +Lewis Turco + **Renga** The renga is a tanka written by two poets where the first poet writes the triplet (three line stanza) and the second poet finishes the poem with a couplet (two lined stanza) response. Often the renga is extended creating a **renga chain** where a sequence of renga are created by a number of poets. The basic idea is that the first triplet will establish a subject with the following couplet and all ensuing triplets and couplets comment on, amplify or add to the initial triplet. Another arrangement will have the initial triplet set the subject and the following couplet will be a response. Ensuing triplets will then rephrase the initial triplet and the following couplets will be responses to the rephrased triplet. +Renga chains were very popular in Japan with drinking establishments often acting as meeting places for the poets involved in writing these chains. As the chains got longer and longer and the poem got more and more complicated the poets would often get very rowdy. A specific type of renga chain growing out of these social events was the **haikai no renga** which was a humorous renga chain. Haikai no renga translates as ""renga of humor,"" an appropriate title considering the often drunken times these gatherings often became. +**Documentation:** +1\.

It can be near past or far, based on historical events or purely fictionalized, fantastic or mundane. In many cases, the only thing they have in common is being bad. This little how to, then, will give you some pointers from a history major and amateur historian on making your period pieces shine rather than flop. +In deference to feedback on my other How To, I am including examples from my own works to illustrate the points. + **Back In The Good Old Days:** +The number one failing of most period pieces is that the author takes a romanticized ideal back with him as he writes. This is natural. If we weren't interested in the period, we wouldn't be writing in it. On the other hand, if we just sit down and start typing with visions of Scarlett O'Hara dancing in our heads, our antebellum world becomes a caricature of what it was really like. +For the most prevalent of sins in writing period pieces, it has the simplest fix. Research. Don't just research what you're interested in; research across a broad spectrum. Include social, political and military histories as well as specific commentary, and above all, look for some first person, primary sources, such as journals and diaries. +The good old days weren't always good and if you are conversant in the social ills, political fights and various military actions, you can paint a picture that is no less interesting but is far more accurate. As little as two hours of intensive research can help you put your character into her time period in a way that reflects the plausible. A pointed comment on Grover Cleveland's alleged infidelity or on General Lee's great victory at Fredericksburg will add a layer of realism over your story that can make up for a lot of faults. Twenty minutes of fighting her way into a panty girdle and crinolines can make your fifties single girl much more real to people who remember doing the same thing or to those gents who remember trying to undo it. +You don't have to be an expert on the times to write a story that is very plausible, even to experts on the period. You just have to invest a little of your prewriting time to get conversant and to make some annotations of events you can work in that breath life into the times. +This example is from my Regency Piece _The Spy Wore Petticoats_ +> Julia gathered up her makeup and gave her brother a critical once over. She > patiently plucked his eyebrows and about three quarters of an inch of the > hair from his head, to give him the fashionably high forehead needed at > court. His skin was so pale, he almost didn't need the ceruse base, but she > dutifully applied it from his head to his bosom, making sure to smooth it > until his skin was flawlessly white. Once she was done, she broke an egg, > carefully separated the yolk and used the white to glaze his skin. > > Next came vermillion for a rosy blush and a cute puckered smile. She used > kohl to outline his wide eyes and make them seem slightly farther apart. > Next came a drop of belladonna in each, to give them that sparkle women so > craved. > > His hair was already fashionably red and it took her only a few minutes to > put it up. +I'm no expert on period costume or makeup, but with this passage I managed to relate just how much makeup was worn, as well as other interesting period tidbits, like red hair being fashionable and high foreheads. Since this particular piece deals with a man passing himself off as a woman, I also gave the premise a plausibility boost by showing just how made up a woman at court was. Under that much makeup, Tony Blair could have passed as a woman. +I received a good deal of feedback from reenactors and others who were very knowledgeable about the times and makeup used. To them, this simple passage established the realism of the story. Twenty minutes of research, tops, and yet the results, boiled down to a few passages, established the realism for many readers. Other passages, including specific dueling techniques, breeds of horses, and ""current"" events, all gave the same kind of feel to other readers whose knowledge of the period differed from the reenactors. +A few minutes of research can be the difference between taking the reader there or leaving him spluttering in outrage at your ignorance. The Good Old Days syndrome has sunk more works than icebergs have ships; don't fall into that trap. Know the romantic from the accurate and always fudge towards the accurate when in doubt. +For a silly, but telling example, I'll cite the old TV standby _Leave it to Beaver_. Ah those simple and innocent times, back when people were so pure. Ever notice that Mr. & Mrs. Cleaver slept in separate beds? Ever try having sex in a single bed? One of two things, Ward is hung like an anaconda or he and June are contortionists, cause Wally and the Beav came from somewhere. This example is a little spurious, in that it was censors who made the decision and not the writers, but I have seen many a period piece with just as silly ideas of their times. + **That Was Now, This Is Then:** +Another failing of most period pieces is that the author has carried modern day perceptions into a period that isn't contemporary with those perceptions. The sexually liberated woman is a stock character, but in the fifties, she's a tramp, in the 20's, she's a flapper, in the 1800's, a strumpet, and the 1600's probably on trail for witchcraft. +The problem goes well beyond sexual mores to encompass societal norms. Crime stories, for example, are big on setting themselves in the age of gas light or before modern forensics, where the character of the detective and his intuition are so pivotal. It makes for strong characterizations, to be sure, but in the trial phase, you see the same standards of evidence that you get off any episode of ""Law and Order."" The philosophy of what constitutes a fair trail has evolved, and you can't retroactively apply it to a period without causing anyone who knows the period to cringe. This is just one of many mistakes the novice author is likely to make. +Attitudes towards women, towards gays, towards blacks, towards Chinese or the Irish, went through monumental change in relatively short periods and are fresh in our consciousness. These radical changes, though, are the exception to the rule, not the rule. As an author, you may well want to write your story about the exception to the rule, but in doing so, you have to be very cognizant of the rule. +The resolution to this pitfall is also fairly simple. When you step back in time, leave all your baggage at the platform. +This example is from a forties piece entitled _WASP_ +> Flying gave her plenty of time to think; it was one of the things she loved > about it. The freedom and adrenaline rush were complimented by the isolation > and time to contemplate. The war was far from over, but Andrea knew it was > coming to a close. The D-Day invasion had been called the beginning of the > end for Hitler and the Nazis. In the Pacific, General Macarthur and Admiral > Nimitz had the hated Japanese on the run. +The ""hated Japanese"" in this passage isn't PC. In fact, my editor asked that I drop it. To her, it was intolerably racist. This is the very reason I demanded it not be dropped. You cannot write about Americans during the war years and not show the racism and hatred that was felt in this country towards the perpetrators of Pearl Harbor. War time propaganda was horribly racist and it reflected the sentiments of the population in general. For a modern character in the mold of this one, such an attitude would be anathema, but for a person living then, it was the norm. +Racism, sexism, religious dogma, governmental and working procedures, your period has its own distinct take on all these things and more. If you try to transpose today's norms, you are destroying the ability to suspend disbelief in anyone knowledgeable about the period. You have to remember, when viewed through a contemporary lens, that Jazz was the devil's music, lipstick and the bob haircut the work of anarchists, and degenerates infiltrating our society, teaching evolution in our schools, nothing less than the work of Satan. To the Greeks homosexuality was natural, in the regency, people fucked like bunnies. Our mores and attitudes reflect a particular place in time; those of your character's must also reflect their particular place in time. + **Groovy, Rad, Cool, A Happening Cat, And The Stud Broad:** +If you try to write a tale in archaic English, you'll send your audience running for cover as memories of college and John Donne rear their ugly heads. At the same time, if your English highwayman says ""Cool, baby"" after he steals a kiss and rides off, you've lost them. +Slang, vocabulary, colloquialisms, even speech patterns change from year to year and society to society. In a period piece, you not only need to know what was being said, you need to know how it would have been said. In pieces moving back to times when society was very striated, you also have to know how your aristocratic young miss would have said it as compared to how the dashing rogue who has kidnapped her would say it. +This part of writing a period piece is fundamental, but also very delicate. For ease of reading, you can't litter a work with 18th century Australian colloquialisms, even if they would be the most likely word choice for your hero. You have to strike a balance between realism and readability. No one wants to have to go to the dictionary every time Sir Reginald opens his mouth to figure out what the old bastard said. Conversely, no one wants pretty Julia, his only living relative, to sound like a valley girl. +In any endeavor, you will encounter situations that demand compromise, none so much as in a period piece where speech is concerned. The best approach is to have a few slang terms or colloquialisms ready to mind. Use them sparingly, but in moments of tension or conflict, to subtly remind your reader that the conversation has been rendered into modern terms for his or her ease of reading. +Just a few, applied at the right time, will build a perception of how Old Uncle John talks in the reader's mind. Once they have that perception, they will read his words in a manner closer to what is realistic without you having to stumble through ten pages of archaic speech every time he opens his mouth. Always start your characters out speaking in the manner you want them heard. If you make the impression early, the voice will stick with a reader even as you ease into a more readable format for his oratory. +This is from _WASP_ +> ""I don't think I would have had time, the mechanic said the engine was about > to rip loose. He's also the one who told me your name."" > > ""Seamus?"" Tommy asked. > > ""Yes."" > > ""Probably told you I'm a stud broad too,"" Tommy said, smiling when Andrea > blushed scarlet. > > ""Well, he did mention you liked redheads,"" Andrea said softly. > > ""Sure do, nothing like a little redheaded Dutch girl to get me going,"" Tommy > said. > > Andrea blushed and felt very uncomfortable. She had never met anyone so up > front about her sexuality and it made her nervous. > > ""You're blushing, am I making you nervous?"" > > ""I've just never met anyone who was so... open... about... well, you know."" > > ""About being a lezzie? Well, I guess I'm pretty upfront about it, but why > try and hide it? I love a girl who likes to eat jam,"" she said and shrugged. +Tommy's voice should be established via this short dialogue sequence where she speaks with a lot of the slang of the period. Earlier, I noted in passing she had a thick Brooklyn accent to help the reader ""hear"" her, because I knew her voice would be tricky. +Another pitfall is picking one or two ""catch phrases"" and doing them to death. I see this quite frequently when American authors try to render a British character. You get the feel of a good slasher film because everything is bloody. Bloody this, bloody that, after eight hundred or so uses, it has not only lost its value, it has become a distraction. The same goes for a Scottish Burr or an Irish Brogue or Cockney and especially with a Patois. Less is really more when it comes to such phrases. + **Dildos, Jet Airplanes, Microwaves And The Velocipede:** +This seems common sense and boils down to a simple tenet: if they didn't have it back then, don't write it. But what if your butch lesbian absolutely has to have a strapon for your climactic sex scene? Can't you just fudge it? +Yes and no. You can fudge it, because no one knows precisely when women began to use phallic shaped objects as toys. You can't fudge it, in that Doc Johnson wasn't even a gleam in his daddy's eye back in 1896. +It may seem perfectly logical to you that your heroine jumps in a car and drives all night from Chicago to New York to stop her beloved from taking ship back to England. They had cars back then, so what's the problem? Just this, even trains barely managed sixty miles per hour. The model T was lucky to get four. +This one is again fixed by research. You need to know what was and wasn't available and to what extent it was functional in the time period you are writing. For something so basic, it's appallingly prevalent. I can't count the number of period pieces I've been jarred out of by the inclusion of something I know or even suspect didn't exist at the time. +The bottom line here is, if you aren't sure, look it up or don't use it. If you absolutely have to use something not available, include a plausible reason for it being there. +This example is from a pirate story entitled _Captive Hearts_ +> Abby could not take her eyes off the handsome pirate as she stripped off her > shirt and removed the codpiece. Lissa stared at Abby as she undid the > drawstring of her pants and eased them down. > > ""My God!"" Abby exclaimed as she stared. Around the pirate's slim waist was a > broad girdle, attached to the front of it was a large black phallus. Lissa > laughed at her bride's embarrassment and stroked the large shaft. > > ""Like it?"" > > ""I... Where... How?"" > > ""The crew had it made for me in Tortuga. Their wedding gift to us. I flatter > myself that the size of it reflects their respect for me,"" > > The pirate moved to the bed and sat holding a leg up. Abby quickly helped > her out of her high sea boots. Lissa spread her legs and Abby knelt to > examine the dildo. She touched it carefully and felt the smooth, warm > leather. > > ""How does it work?"" > > ""Well, it serves as a substitute for the real thing. Men who have been > maimed have them made as well as ladies of a certain temperament."" +No one knows when the first strapon was made and there is historical evidence of seamen maimed in battle have prosthetics constructed. So I am on fairly safe ground here, but I knew a reader might be going ""Aww, gimme a break"" so I provided the explanation. Is it an anachronism? In the scene I am going to use it in, probably so. But I don't have to be perfectly accurate, I just have to be plausibly accurate. It's important to know the difference, which leads nicely to my last point + **How Much Is Too Much?:** +So you've done your research. You have your mind set firmly in your period. You know how they talk, what they say, what they wear, and who was president. Time to show off all that knowledge right? Wrong. +One of the more frustrating things about a period piece is that you have to know so much, but you aren't allowed to show off all you know. Unless your readers are very forgiving, they don't want to hear it. And that's the paradox involved. You need to know, but you aren't at liberty to show off all you know. +There is a fine line between accuracy and arrogance. Picking and choosing which tidbits you add and which you just keep in your head can be the very heart and soul of a good period piece. Too much detail and readers will come to feel they are being lectured, which pulls them from the story. Too little and they will feel you don't know what you're talking about, which will pull them from the story. It's your job to provide enough to make it real, but not to get overly enthusiastic. And it's a hard line to find for most writers, because you've invested time in learning the stuff. +This passage, from _Cold Reception_ , is instructive: +> It was a dangerous game Annika played because if the man reached the tank he > could simply blast away at the world with it's machine guns and god help her > if he managed to get the main gun into action by himself. The big 88mm high > velocity cannon would not even have to be particularly close to her if he > managed to fire it. Also, there was the fifth man. He had disappeared as > soon as the shooting began, Annika could ill afford to be watching the tank > with such concentration that she allowed him to sneak up on her. A dangerous > game it was, but she had played it many times since Stalingrad and she would > play it many more if the fates permitted her to. > > A flash of movement, her scope filed with gray and the sharp crack of the > Mauser seemed to be one event. She pulled her eye from the scope to see the > man fall backwards into the snow. He writhed around, shot through the spine, > but the Russian woman sent no mercy bullet. She watched casually as he bled > to death, her keen eyes now searching the increasingly murky ground for the > fifth man. Over time she had developed a keen sense of what the world should > look like. Her eyes darted over the landscape before her, but some small > thing tugged at her consciousness.

She carefully surveyed the camp through the magnified view until > she came to rest on a large boulder. There, at the very edge she found what > had been out of place. A boot, or more precisely, the toe of one. +This is the only mention of a Tiger tank in a six Lit page work. By the time I wrote the story, I could pick a Tiger out by sight in pictures and paintings. I knew who built it, what years it was in production, what the standard armor was, armament, the drive train, relative speed, weight, foot print, etc. etc. etc. For all that research, this is the only thing I really needed to know: that it had a driver's hatch on the fore deck. It's the only time my character's interaction demanded a detail of that particular tank that couldn't be filled by any generic tank. I had to make sure her target would act as I described and he only would if there was access to the tank on the fore deck. +It is, to be sure, a minor detail, one that 90% of my readers or better are ignorant of. But for that scene to work, for me to build the character as I wanted, I had to know before I could write it. And that is precisely how a lot of your knowledge will be. Something you know, that you don't disclose, but that gives your work realism in your mind and for a tiny fraction of your audience. +Remember also, that any details you provide need to be part of the plot. Just throwing them out there, naked and apart from the work, makes them singular distractions to the reader. If you are describing an age of sail cannon duel, for example, you could give a sense of the weapons by having men straining to heft the thirty-six pound ball to the bore in the heat of battle. If you throw in a whole paragraph on cannonry, including all the details you've accumulated, it distracts rather than adding to the story. + **Conclusion** +Writing a period piece can be one of the most fun projects you ever undertake as an author. Unlike modern day works or future worlds, the period piece imposes its own discipline upon you to conform. It's very demanding, but the rewards go well beyond the approbation of your readers. +Research is the lynch pin of writing a good period piece and it can be a lot of fun in its own right. +At the end of the day, writing a period piece is much like any other you write. The same mechanics of story building and characterization apply. The difference is the world you write in is more demanding of you. Writing to that more exacting standard is a challenge, but well worth the rewards." +558,How to Write Realistic Transsexual Characters,TGirlNerd,How To,2013-04-04,2013-04-04,2022-01-04 08:34:56,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-realistic-transsexual- characters,A how-to guide for authors writing stories with transsexuals.,"['Guide', 'Transgender', 'Transsexual', 'Writing', 'Writing How To']",4.8,"Table of Contents +[1] Introduction: +[2] Who are transsexuals? +[3] Who are cross-dressers and transvestites? +[4] What are cross-dressers and transvestites like? +[5] How can I relate to my transsexual characters and get into their heads? +[6] What terminology should I use? +[7] What terminology should I avoid? +[8.1] What do trans women look like naked? +[8.2] What do trans men look like naked? +[9] How do trans people have sex? +[9.1] What are some details for trans women? +[9.2] What are some details for trans men? +[10] Closing Notes +* +[1] Introduction: +Since being on Literotica, I've been asked by several people for advice on how to write, approach, or even please transsexual women. I've also seen several people asking these questions of others or asking this question on the GLBT forum. Unfortunately, a great deal of the fiction available today (erotic or otherwise) portrays transsexuals in a completely unrealistic manner that can be very off-putting to a transsexual reader or anyone who is close to a transsexual person in real life. +I believe that everybody is entitled to their own fantasies, and everyone is entitled to write them down and share them if they want to; but I also believe it's valuable to know what parts of your fantasies are unrealistic. So with that in mind, I'd like to lay out some guidelines about writing realistic transsexual characters. Since this is being published on an erotic literature site, this guide will be written with erotic fiction in mind. The emphasis is on trans women, since I am a trans woman and that is what I know best, but I've tried to include helpful tips for trans man characters as well, which information comes from my knowledge of the several trans men who have been my friends and lovers in the past. +[2] Who are transsexuals? +Transsexuals are people who have been born with the physical characteristics of one sex but the internal gender identification of the other. A transsexual woman was born with a penis and will develop male secondary sex characteristics through puberty (facial hair, no breasts, etc) but this does not change her internal self-identification as a girl or woman. Similarly, transsexual men are men who are born with a vagina, and through puberty develop female secondary sexual traits (breasts, no facial hair, etc); but this does not change their own internal self-identification as men. +[3] Who are cross-dressers and transvestites? +A transvestite is a person who gains sexual pleasure from wearing the clothing of the sex with which they do not identify. Normally, this means a man who has a fetish for wearing women's clothing. Cross-dressers are people who wear clothing of the opposite sex for any other reason. Maybe they enjoy the shock value; maybe they just have odd tastes, but it doesn't change the fact that they identify as a man even in women's clothes (or vice versa). +Transvestites and cross-dressers ARE NOT TRANSSEXUALS. And transsexuals are generally not cross-dressers or transvestites. There's nothing wrong with writing a story about a cross-dresser or a transvestite, but please don't call them transsexual -- realize that there is a big difference. +It is also true that trans people sometimes begin exploring their own gender deviation through acts of cross-dressing. However, most cross dressers do not have underlying gender dysphoria. Additionally, not all transsexuals cross- dress or ever went through any phase of cross-dressing. Depending on a person's personal identity, they may or may not consider their first experience in clothing intended for their true gender rather than their assigned sex to be a cross-dressing experience. It's possible, but don't assume it's a universal or even a majority-experienced phenomenon for trans people. +[4] What are cross-dressers and transvestites like? +Couldn't tell you. I'm not either of these, I'm a transsexual. If this is what you're looking for, it's not going to be covered in this guide. +[5] How can I relate to my transsexual characters and get into their heads? +If you are a male author, imagine this: you catch a rare disease which causes your penis to collapse in on itself and form a vagina where you used to have a penis instead. Your facial hair all falls out, your muscles wither, and your chest grows fat deposits so that to someone who doesn't know you, they would probably guess you were a woman just from your appearance. Don't apply any mental changes; don't apply stereotypes about what you think you would be like ""as a woman"" -- you aren't changing who you are, you just have this odd disease affecting your body that confuses people who don't know about it. +Now, this is where many people get it wrong: what you are imagining is NOT what it's like to transition, it's NOT what it's like to be a trans woman, what you are imagining is a rough analogy for what it is like to be a trans MAN; aka: a man with a female body, someone born with female genitalia who seeks to medically and socially transition into being accepted as male. What would you want to do if you had this disease? Would you want to have your new ""breasts"" surgically removed so that people would stop seeing you as a woman? If a chemical treatment could get you back your strength and facial hair, wouldn't you do that? You never asked to be a woman -- you aren't a woman! It's just this disease that the doctors can try to fix as best they can. This is analogous to the mindset of a transsexual man; the process of having this disease ""fixed"" is analogous to a transsexual's ""transition"" process. +For a transsexual woman, just imagine the situation in reverse. For the female authors out there, imagine an opposite disease struck you -- your clitoris grows to an enormous scale and your vagina seals up; your labia grow into dangling, tender lumps -- people who see you undressed think you are a man. Your breasts wither away, your shoulders bulk up, and hair starts sprouting from your face. There may be a few people who would shrug and say ""Well, I guess I'm a man now."" but most would seek medical treatment to have these effects reversed. This is analogous to the experience of a transsexual woman. +Always remember that transsexuals are people first and foremost, and like most real people sex or specific sexual acts are usually not our highest priority in life -- try to write people, not sex objects. People can have sex too! +[6] What terminology should I use? +Transsexual:Someone who has an internal self-identification of their own gender that does not align with the physical sex they were born into. +Transsexual woman or trans woman: A woman born into a male body (Do NOT mix this up with ""trans man!"") +Transsexual man or trans man: A man born into a female body. (do NOT mix this up with ""trans woman!"") +Woman: This is a good term to use for a trans woman if there is no need to specifically call attention to the fact that she is trans. Even if she's been acknowledged as trans earlier in the story, there's no need to obsessively point it out. Just like if you had a blonde character you wouldn't have to refer to her as a ""blonde woman"" every time you mentioned her, it would just be belaboring the point. It can also be off-putting to any transsexuals reading your story if it seems you are using ""trans"" not as a descriptive trait but rather as a qualifier which indicates that you do not actually think of trans women as woman, or of trans men as men. +Man: Just as with trans women, if you're writing a trans man, there's no need to belabor the point. Just use ""man"" when it makes sense. +Two more good words to know: +Dysphoric: Refers to a transsexual person's feeling of the fundamental ""wrongness"" of their body, and the extreme discomfort associated with have a physical sex that does not match your true internal gender identity. +Cissexual, Cisgender, or just ""cis"": The opposite of Transsexual, transgender, and trans -- a person who's true internal gender identity matches their external sex. Most people are cissexual. +[7] What terminology should I avoid? +Avoid using qualifiers that would indicate you are thinking of this character as something other than their own identified gender. If you're writing about a trans woman, don't put ""woman"" in quotation marks as if it's only partially true, or strange or funny that she thinks of herself as a woman. +Along the same lines, unless you want to alienate any trans people reading your story, don't make a big deal about sex with a trans person being ""wrong"" or ""perverse"" or ""taboo"" -- at least not due to the person being trans; you could have the sex be ""taboo"" for some other reason, I suppose. Trans people are allowed to have sex like everyone else, talking about having sex with us like it is some dirty sin just because we are trans is going to make your trans readers feel that you must not have a very high opinion of us to think that it should be taboo just that we have sex lives at all. +Don't use inaccurate terms like ""cross-dresser"" if you are not describing a cross dresser. This indicates that you think of a trans woman as a man in women's clothing -- otherwise she would not be cross dressing. This is equally true of words like ""gay"" and ""lesbian."" A cis man with a trans woman is a straight pairing, to call it gay means you are thinking of the woman as a man, which she is not. Don't refer to a trans man as a lesbian, dyke, etc -- trans men are men, not extremely gay girls. The same is true for trans women -- don't call us homos or fagots or gays or anything like that, we are women. +As an aside on that last point, note that overlap is very possible -- many trans people are also gay. But remember, a gay trans woman is attracted to women. A trans women attracted to men is straight. Same is true in reverse for trans men. Some of us, of course, are bi- or pan-sexual as well. +Absolutely never use slurs or anything that belittles the person or their identity. Examples include: Tranny, She-male, He-She, Lady-boy, Trap, It (in lieu of he or she). +These words are all often the precursors to harassment or even violence. Any trans person reading your story will find this a huge turn off. If you are writing a story in which discrimination is central to the plot, you might have a bigoted character use these terms as an intentional slur -- but in your capacity as the author/narrator you should never refer to your own characters this way, nor should anyone who is intended to be friendly or supportive. Having someone use an offensive term out of ignorance and be corrected would be realistic, since most people do not have much exposure to this topic until they come into close contact with a transsexual friend, lover, or relative. +[8.1] What do trans women look like naked? +There are as many ""right answers"" to that question as there are trans women in the world. Always remember that like any other group of people, we are diverse. However, here are some tips about the transition life-process and what it does to trans women's bodies: +1\. In early life, transsexuals will look like the sex they were born into. All transsexuals go through at least some portion of their life during which they try to conform to the gender they have been assigned before they come to terms with who they are and decide to try to live and be seen as a member of the opposite sex from that which they were born with. Some people realize this as early as grade school -- others don't decide to transition until later in life, some even after retirement. My personal experience is that many people at least take the first steps towards realizing they are transsexual when they hit puberty, and boys and girls start to differentiate more while their own bodies feel increasingly ""wrong"" as secondary sexual traits develop. +2\. Once a person decides to live as the opposite sex, they will most likely want to try to be perceived that way by the outside world. The art of ""passing"" as it is called is complex, but it generally involves clothing, hairstyle, and sometimes makeup. Some people are lucky enough to be able to ""pass"" effectively without any medical treatments; however, many others are not so lucky. It is in this earliest phase of transition that a person is likely to look ""wrong"" or give off the ""man in a dress"" vibe or something similar. Like a teenager going through an awkward and uncomfortable phase of puberty and sprouting acne all over their face, this is something most transsexuals will be both distinctly aware of and distinctly ashamed of. Many choose not to try to ""pass"" at all until medical treatments have given them a better chance at not being noticed as transsexual. +3\. In general, the first step in a medical transition is hormone therapy -- trans men will be given testosterone, whereas trans women take estrogen and a testosterone-blocker. This will cause them to develop many of the secondary sexual characteristics they desire, and for many people it is all they need to feel comfortable in their own skins and to pass reliably in public. Once on hormones, a trans woman will begin developing breasts. Her body hair will become sparser, and her skin softer, while her muscles become smaller and less pronounced. She will also generally become more ""curvy"" with fat being deposited more on her butt, thighs, hips, and breasts rather than concentrating so much on the stomach as in men. +4\. Estrogen will not change a trans woman's voice or facial hair. Specific facial hair removal is usually needed, and can be one of the most important steps in passing as it gives you a much softer, more feminine looking face. The most common method of permanent hair removal is known as electrolysis, and involves burning the base of each hair with a small electric shock. The process is long (months of appointments with a specialist, at least weekly), painful, and expensive -- but generally very rewarding in terms of lessening dysphoria and improving a trans woman's confidence in her appearance and ability to pass. Laser Hair Removal is also effective in some cases, but not all. It's cheaper, but not universally successful, and the treatment can still take a year or more to complete. Some trans women undergo vocal training to sound more feminine, others are fine with the voice they've always had. +5\. There are several surgical options open to trans women, the most common of which is referred to as ""SRS"" or ""Sexual Reassignment Surgery."" You can look up the details of how this is done on your own if you like -- but modern SRS is very effective at giving trans women a vulva that looks and feels very analogous to those of non-trans women, and removes the penis/testicles entirely. Others may choose to have their testicles removed, but keep their penis due to medical complications, monetary cost (SRS can run in the vicinity of $20k, having the testicles removed is only about $2k), or fear of losing sexual sensitivity. There are a variety of things which a plastic surgeon can do with the scrotal skin regardless of whether or not the penis is removed, including a labiaplasty to mimic the appearance of female external genetalia or even creating a sensitive lining for a neo-vagina. Even trans women who decide to have SRS often go without this option while on hormones for quite some time just to save up the money to afford it. Most doctors who perform SRS will also insist you be on hormones and living full-time as a woman for at least one year before performing SRS on a trans woman. +6\. Other surgeries that are common include facial surgery for those who feel their face is too ""mannish."" Surgeries to reduce the Adam's apple are also common; but many trans women also decide to do without facial or tracheal surgery. Hormones generally leave trans women with fairly small natural breasts, which develop through the same biological process as other breasts and feel and look completely analogous, but many trans women choose to get breast augmentation to help them pass and avoid having A-cups all their lives. Many others decide they are fine with flat or small chests and choose not to do this. +7\. No surgery today will change your overall skeletal structure, so trans women will tend to be tall compared to non-trans women, though obviously there is individual variation. +[8.2] What do trans men look like naked? +The overall process of discovery, hormones, and then surgery is similar for a trans man as it is for a trans woman. However, the effects of the hormones and surgeries are notably different: +1\. Testosterone will cause a trans man to develop pronounced muscles like other men, leading to a more square frame and a less curvy look. It also leads to facial hair growth and a deepening of the voice. However, it will not do anything for their chest. +2\. Breast removal or extreme reduction usually follows, giving trans men a flat chest. Prior to this, most trans men will choose to do what is known as ""binding"" -- using a tight under-garment that wraps around the torso to compress the breasts and make them less visible/pronounced. +3\. SRS for trans men is less effective than it is for trans women, and more trans men than trans women choose to avoid it entirely -- meaning that, much their own annoyance, most trans men are left with female genitalia. +4\. No surgery today will change your overall skeletal structure, so trans men will tend to be short compared to non-trans men, though obviously there is individual variation. +[9] How do trans people have sex? +As is probably obvious, people have sex in a wide variety of ways and it's based a lot on personal preference, so two different trans people may have very different turn-ons and preferences. +When a man and a woman, neither of them trans, decide to have sex, there is a very natural social-script for how it is ""supposed"" to go: The man climbs on top, puts his penis in the woman's vagina, and thrusts until he's done and then sex is over. Now obviously this isn't the only way that men and women have sex, but it serves as a good starting point for most people. +Trans people don't really have that. There isn't a default script for how sex should go. It's very hard to generalize about people's sexuality, but as a guideline there are two conflicting factors that come into play for all trans people, both men and women: +1\. Sexual Pleasure. Obviously, having our genitals generally rubbed, squeezed, petted, licked, or otherwise manipulated tends to feel good, just like for everyone else. +2\. Gender Dysphoria. This term refers to a transsexual's sense that their body is ""not right"" in that they feel they ""belong"" in a body of the opposite sex. While it's a discomfort people learn to live with, it's still not something people like to be reminded of. Overt reminders of how different our bodies are than what we would want or expect are uncomfortable, often upsetting, and usually a big turn-off that has the potential to stop sex dead in it's tracks. If you're writing a sexual fantasy, you may want to minimize this. Most erotic stories don't dwell on all the little things that in reality can make sex un-sexy when not handled properly. But with that being said, you don't want to stray too far or the amount of un-reality becomes jarring as transsexual readers can begin feeling dysphoric just from reading a story that ignores this too much. +These two opposing forces of pleasure vs. dysphoria need to be balanced for a transsexual to have a satisfying experience. You can avoid a lot of dysphoria by never undressing or touching, but obviously that's not much fun. Conversely, diving right in could cause too much dysphoria, and stop things short. +Remember that most trans people spend significant portions of their lives feeling the need to repress their true identities out of fear, and many are wary about revealing that they are trans at any point in their lives. As a rule of thumb, this leaves many trans people with less confidence and more sensitivity than their non-transsexual counterparts, at least until they've had the time to adjust to being accepted for who they are after a successful transition; and sometimes even then. +Some trans people find it useful to keep in mind what is known as sexual homology. As an embryo develops into an infant, certain parts of the sexual anatomy develop differently depending on the sex of the embryo. Labia and Scrotal skin come from the same original embryonic structures -- so some trans women view their scrotum as a sort of bloated labia, and trans men sometimes view their labia as simply very small balls. The penis and clitoris share a similarly homologous relationship. Not all trans people use this to reduce dysphoria, but I personally have found it to be at least partially effective and know several other trans people who have as well. +[9.1] What are some details for trans women? +First of all, the most common scenario I see on Literotica is one of the trans woman penetrating a man in some way. However, for most trans women, penetrating is a hit-or-miss endeavor at best. Rather than being something we crave, for most of us penetrating is just a big reminder that we have a penis instead of a vagina -- and very few trans women are comfortable enough with that idea to use their penis for something they absolutely could not do if they didn't have one. Personally, I have had some positive experiences with penetration but it's difficult to maintain arousal and not as good as other options like hand-jobs or frottage. +Though the testicles themselves are typically a source of dysphoria, the sensitive scrotal skin is what would be shaped into labia during an SRS, and even before the surgery many trans women find it very pleasing to be touched there. The penis can also be a sensitive, pleasurable area if it is treated as one would treat a large clitoris rather than as an object for penetration. However, any genital touching runs the risk of causing too much dysphoria, and the pleasure vs dysphoria balance will vary from person to person. +I have heard mixed reports from others about receiving blow jobs -- I personally find them very dysphoric and am not a fan. Receiving anal sex is often better for trans women than it is for cis women, since trans women have a prostate making anal as pleasurable for us as it is for gay men. +Remember the non-physical aspects as well. Trans women are women and being treated as a man or having a partner give any indication they think of us as a man is a guaranteed huge turn off and a complete deal-breaker for many if not most trans women. +[9.2] What are some details for trans men? +I've come across very few stories of trans men on Literotica, which is a shame since trans men deserve to be seen as desirable and attractive as much as anyone else. +The same general rules apply to trans men as to trans women -- anything which absolutely could not be done with male genitalia is probably going to be dysphoric. My experience has been that receiving vaginal sex is usually not a positive experience for a trans man unless he is already extremely worked up; and even then it's hit or miss. Drawing attention to the vagina or calling it a vagina/pussy/any other exclusively female name for genitals is probably not going to make him feel very good. Some trans men do like their clitoris stroked and rubbed as one would stroke a penis. +For every pre-op trans man I've ever known, touching their chest is an extremely dysphoric experience. While I'm sure this isn't completely universal, it's at least extremely common. Don't refer to a trans man's chest as ""breasts"" or worse, ""boobs"" or ""boobies."" The fact that their chest is larger and squishier than most men's is just about the last thing they want to be reminded of, particularly during sex. +Just as with trans women, be sure to remember the non-physical aspects as well. Trans men are men and being treated as a woman or having a partner give any indication they think of them as a woman is a guaranteed huge turn off and a complete deal-breaker for many if not most trans men. +[10] Closing Notes +Always remember that trans people are as diverse a group as any other group of people. Most of us have had shared experiences of having to hide, of fear of what people will do or think if and when they find us out. We all share the pain of dysphoria, though the details vary from person to person, and most of us have had both negative and positive experiences with the process of transition and coming out to friends, family, and loved ones. +But beyond that, we are each individuals. There is no one way that transsexuals act, no one thing that we all like during sex, no one group we are all attracted to. Remember to write a person first, give them a personality, make them something more than just ""trans."" Give them a career, a family, a history, a hobby ... ""trans"" isn't a back story or an archetype, it's just another trait that goes into the complete picture of who a person is and where they have come from." +559,How to Write Romance,MarshAlien,How To,2007-05-22,2007-05-22,2022-01-04 08:34:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-romance,The secret formula. (Sssh!),"['Romance Writing', 'Writing Advice']",4.68,"My name is Marsh Alien, and I am a Romance writer, and I have a problem. +""Hello, Marsh Alien."" +Yeah, yeah. Anyway, in ""How to Break the Literotica Toplist, an entry in Literotica's How-To Contest, Tink4Fairy debuted with a work describing the best ways to reach the top-rated lists in each of the site's categories. The Romance category included the following: ""This category is fairly simple to excel in, actually, especially if you've read a lot of formulaic romance novels."" I'm sorry, simple? Did you say simple? +Because the fact is that I haven't read even a single formulaic romance novel, let alone a lot of them. And I'm sure I speak for my fellow Romance writers when I say that we appreciate fine literature as much as the next person. Daniellekitten, for example, is currently finishing the reading required for her upcoming presentation at the American Library Association comparing the novelists John Updike, Philip Roth, and Margaret Attwood. As for me, I have nearly completed with the entire Hardy Boys series, and am considering whether or not I should take up the Bobbsey Twins. Although I have to say that so far I find the character of Flossie a little annoying. +Frankly, the idea that we Romance writers can't come up with these plots on our own is offensive. It may be true, but it's still offensive. The secret, though, lies not in reading a lot of formulaic romance novels, which would be very time-consuming, but simply in obtaining a copy of the formula itself. Once you join the club, either by purchasing the introductory video or by actually posting a story in the ""Romance"" category, you receive a copy in the mail (we romantics have yet to adapt to the modern world of e-mail, although I am given to understand that the billet-doux is actually a thing of the past now.). And at that point, you can start cranking these babies out like nobody's business. +I recently had a little falling out with the club's management, the result, apparently, of what they termed a certain immaturity on my part. ""But if posting a story in the Romance category makes me a Romance writer,"" I argued, ""doesn't posting a story in the ""Mature"" category actually make me a Mature writer?"" Apparently not. Or maybe they just don't want any Mature writers in the club. Whatever. Anyway, they've ticked me off enough that I've decided to spill the secret formula. So get out your notebooks, newbies. This stuff is golden. +There are essentially two basic elements to any Romance: plot and language. As we will see, once you have mastered them, you will be able to branch out on your own. For the moment, however, you should stick to the basics. After all, it's only after we know the notes to sing, that we can sing most anything. (Sorry. I was having a Julie Andrews moments. I'm fine now). +First, the basic plot: The heroine a plucky, lovely (orphan/elementary school teacher/princess/virgin coed/rich debutante) is beset by the villain, a hardhearted (sheriff/sister/queen/college professor/banker), who is determined to relieve her of her (homestead/boyfriends/life itself/virginity/money), requiring the intervention of the hero, a tall, handsome (stranger/business consultant/prince/science nerd/tennis pro) with whom she falls desperately in love, resulting in (sex/sex/sex/heavy petting/sex) and ultimately in everyone, except the villain, living (happily ever after/happily ever after/happily ever after/happily ever after/happily ever after). Initially, you shouldn't try to mix and match. A story involving a plucky, lovely school teacher beset by a hardhearted queen determined to relieve her of her virginity, requiring the intervention of a handsome tennis pro is frankly beyond your skill at this point. Instead, perhaps you should start with all of the first choices (the orphan, the sheriff, etc.). No, no, wait a minute. I'm sorry. That's the plot of SweetWitch's ""Dire Straits."" So don't use that one. Even though three of the chapters of that novel occupy spots in the top ten of the Romance toplist, she gets really upset whenever I plagiarize anything of hers, and pissing her off is even worse than pissing off the management of the Romance Club. And now that I think about it, the second choices are actually the plot of my own story ""Goin' Fishin.'"" And of course the third choices are from ""Snow White,"" which would no doubt be at the top of the list if the third brother, ""Smilin' Jim"" Grimm, hadn't traded the copyright for a handful of beans. But the others -- the virgin coed and the rich debutante -- are yours to use as you see fit. +Once you have the basic plot, actually, the characters don't really matter that much. You could have the two best characters in the world, but if you just have them lying around in bed, chapter after chapter, fucking each other's brains out, your basic Romance reader is going to lose interest very quickly. My advice, if you have a story like this, is to make them cousins, or better yet brother and sister, and post in ""Incest."" Those horny toads will read everything. In Romance, plot is everything. All you need to do, once you've chosen the appropriate plot variables, is worry about things like hairstyles and outfits. In fact, you might try simply looking around you to find characters. For example, from where I sit, I can see a fascinating story about a plucky, lovely woman watering her plants, beset by a hardhearted man walking a dog who is determined to relieve of her porch swing, requiring the intervention of a tall, handsome insurance agent who lives next door. Ooh, I can already see a red ""H"" in somebody's future. +The one other area to which you will need to pay specific attention is language. For example, our characters don't fuck. They ""couple."" There are no cocks or dicks, only ""rampant members."" Pussies and cunts are ""fruitful loins"" or, since you may need more than one synonym, ""honeyed treasure palaces."" The clitoris is a woman's ""center of pleasure."" Breasts, boobs, tits, or the even cruder jugs or hooters? I don't think so. ""Pink-tipped downy/ebony/dusky hills"" (notice our multiculturalism) is the closest you're going to find. Asses and assholes rarely get mentioned in Romance stories; when we acknowledge them at all, we refer to a woman's ""soft curves"" and a man's ""sculpted thighs."" Rather than coming or climaxing or blowing our loads, partners experience a ""joyful release."" You can set your word processor to automatically find and replace these words and phrases when you're writing a Romance story. Just make sure you don't use that program elsewhere; calling your editor a ""coupling moron"" won't have anywhere near the effect you intend. +So now you have mastered the basic plot and the language (aren't you full of yourself today?), and want to turn to something more difficult. Because, after all, Romance ""is fairly simple to excel in"" and you're looking for more of a challenge. @#$$#&! Tink4Fairy. I would suggest that you don't need to look far. There are plenty of other categories here at Literotica that could benefit from a healthy dose of romance. Let's take a look at a selection: +Anal Romance: Romance for people who don't actually want to have to look at each other. +BDSM Romance: This reminds of the joke about impersonating a German Shepherd: ""You sheep vill stay in that field, und you vill eat that grass, und you vill like it!"" +Celebrities Romance: Usually very, very, very short stories. +Exhibitionist and Voyeur Romance: What you call creepy, we call unrequited love. +Fetish Romance: ""I love those shoes."" +First Time Romance: All Romance is First Time Romance. Nobody's entitled to more than one True Love. +Gay Male Romance: Oddly, many Literotica readers are unwilling to read a story that involves two rampant members and no fruitful loins. +Humor & Satire Romance: Marriage. +Incest/Taboo Romance: In 1957, Jerry Lee Lewis married his 14-year-old cousin. +Interracial Love Romance: Now legal in all 50 states, thanks to the Supreme Court's 1967 in Loving v. Virginia. And honestly, with a title like that, did the Commonwealth of Virginia really think it had a chance of winning? +Lesbian Sex Romance: The same readers who wouldn't be caught dead in a Gay Male story will happily wallow in a story that features two honeyed treasure palaces, probably on the theory that the two women involved are more than likely just killing time while they wait for a rampant member to show up. +Loving Wives Romance: Divorce. Interestingly, Jerry Lee Lewis married his second wife (the one before the cousin) 23 days before the divorce from his first wife was final. +Mature Romance: The Anna Nicole Smith story. +Mind Control Romance: Doesn't count. +Non-English Romance: Who cares? +NonHuman Romance: Why darling, what big, sharp teeth you have. +Toys & Masturbation Romance: All right, so maybe it doesn't work for all the categories. +To see how it would work in practice, let's use an actual example from a story currently ranked fifteenth on the ""Mature"" list: ""The Accidental Gigolo, Pt. 01"" by MarshAlien. Why, it's one of mine! Yes, even though my law student (I heartily recommend law students over so called ""real"" lawyers. You can easily find one with two-thirds of the schooling as an older lawyer, yet willing to work for less than a quarter of the price) told me that I could steal from anyone's work under the ""fair abuse"" doctrine, she also said that I would actually be much less likely to be sued if I stole from myself (she wouldn't rule it out completely, though). The following scene occurs when our young hero, Terry, returns home from the store and finds his houseguest, who happens to be his French teacher as well as one of his mother's best friends, entertaining herself with a zucchini. Here's the original: +Without speaking, I bent my beautiful teacher over the countertop, forcing her curvy ass outward as she braced herself with her hands. +""Qu'est que çe, Mademoiselle?"" I teased her. +I reached down with my free hand and squeezed her bikini-covered ass, eliciting a moan of arousal. I slowly slid my hand downward until I felt the bulge that I'd noticed against my leg. I pushed against it, feeling it disappear inside her. She moaned again, her strong muscles involuntarily pushing it wantonly back out. I pushed twice more, watching with interest as Ms. Lee — hell, we were friends, right? — as Pam sank to her elbows, her breasts pressing against the countertop. +""Oh, God,"" she groaned. +""So what is this, Mademoiselle?"" I asked. +""Please, I. . ."" Pam was pleading with me. +""Tell me,"" I insisted. +""It's — it's a zucchini,"" she choked. +""A zucchini?"" I chuckled. ""And ou est la?"" +""In my — my pussy!"" Pam moaned as I kept teasing her by pushing against the vegetable. +""Have you been teasing this innocent little zucchini?"" I smirked. ""Like you tease all the guys in your French class?"" +""I. . ., "" the teacher whimpered. +""You're pretty hard on us, aren't you, you little French bitch?"" I insisted. +""I'm sorry, oh God,"" Pam moaned. +""Maybe you should give the zucchini a blowjob first, to make up for teasing it,"" I suggested instead, pulling the crotch of Pam's bikini aside. The vegetable popped out and I slowly, tantalizingly, pulled it free and held it in front of my teacher's lips. +""Mmmmfffff, mmmmffff, mmmmffff,"" Pam groaned, opening her mouth and sucking her juices off as I slid the zucchini in and out. She groaned again when I pulled the zucchini away and once again brought it down to her dripping cunt. Slowly, I pushed it inside of her, pushing my middle finger in along side of it. +""Oh, shit!"" moaned my pretty French teacher. +""Is that what the young romance language teacher really wants in her pussy?"" I asked. +""No,"" Pam flushed. +""What does she want?"" I asked her. +She knew the answer I wanted; we'd both seen the website last night. +""A big, fat, hard cock,"" she whimpered. +""You like big, fat, hard cocks, don't you Pam?"" I demanded. +""Yesssss,"" she hissed. ""Fuck me with your big cock, Terry!"" +""Not yet, you little cockteaser,"" I answered, tossing the zucchini to the floor. He'd done his part. I let go of Pam's arms and tangled my fingers in her long, dark hair. Yanking her backward, I shoved her back to a squat position before me. +""Now take it out and suck it,"" I ordered. +Pam grabbed my swim suit with both hands and yanked it down to my knees, exposing my erect cock. Eagerly, she leaned forward and opened her mouth to take the head inside. +Is it big enough for you?"" I teased. +""Mmm-hmmm,"" Pam growled around her mouthful. +""Is it fat enough for you?"" +""Mmm-hmmm."" +""Is it hard enough for you?"" +""Mmm-hmmm,"" Pam agreed with enthusiasm. +Seeing my teacher squatting in front of me, her tits fully exposed in the cavernous cups of my mom's top while below them her pussy lips shone with wetness between her opened thighs, would by itself have been enough to make me come. But having her dark red lips wrapped around my cock for the second time today was just too much. Without warning, I blew my load down Ms. Lee's gullet, watching in stunned amazement as she gulped down one blast after another. +******************** +Now let's make it a romance: +Without speaking, I bent my beautiful teacher over the countertop, forcing her curvy soft curves outward as she braced herself with her hands. +""Qu'est que çe, Mademoiselle?""

Reading it over again, I almost feel sorry that I ended up reuniting the bisexual Ms. Lee with her former lesbian lover and getting Terry engaged to his next-door neighbor, who's also a friend of his mother's and also ten years older than Terry. Of course, he did knock her up. Anyway, I think I've made my point, even if I have forgotten what it was. No matter. What you need to remember is only two things: plot and language.

A cinquain will have a single stress on the first line, two stresses on the second, three stresses on the third, four stresses on the fourth line and one stress on the fifth line. In a standard cinquain, the meter is normally iambic meaning each pair of syllables will feature an unstressed syllable, followed by a stressed syllable (x X). +The second criteria for cinquain is based upon syllable count with the first line comprised of two syllables, the second line with four syllables, the third line with six syllables, the fourth line with eight syllables and finally the fifth line is comprised of two syllables. Of course if these lines were written in iambic meter, the syllable layout outlined above would match the accent requirements of criteria one. A cinquain would diagram as follows: + (x – unstressed, X- stressed) syllables + x X 2 x X x X 4 x X x X x X 6 x X x X x X x X 8 x X 2 +More modern cinquain forms will drop the requirement for the iambic meter, basing the poem almost entirely on simply the syllable count. Another important feature Adelaide Crapsey looked for in the form was a, ""Turn, twist, reversal, punch line, etc., that occurs at or immediately before the 5th line; the cinquain very rough equivalent of ""kireji"" in haiku."" (4) However, in modern writing, this criteria is not considered all that important to most poets. +While Crapsey titled her cinquain, many modern cinquain poets will not include a title on their cinquain because often the first line can serve as a title. Since most of the criteria outlined seemingly has been relaxed in recent years, the basic form you want to follow is simply the 2,4,6,8,2 syllable count. Here is an example of a cinquain used with the permission of the author: + _Butterfly Dancer_ +Colors: canyons blossom butterfly confessions in the selfish dance of your heart in flight. +James M. Thompson + **Clerihew** The clerihew is a simple four lined poem which is an epigram of a person. The poem uses a rhyme scheme of aabb for the four lines. The first line of the poem is the name of a person; the remaining three lines give a short biography basically making fun of that person. + **Limerick** A limerick is a five lined poem with a specific meter and a rhyme scheme of aabba. In some variations of the poem, the first line becomes a refrain that is repeated as the last line of the poem. Limericks are funny, often to the point of being bawdy or even pornographic. +The meter for lines 1, 2 and 5 have an iambic foot (x X) and two anapests (x x X, x x X) while lines 3 and 4 have either an iambic foot (x X) and an anapest (x x X) or simply two anapests (x x X, x x X). The meter and rhyme scheme would diagram as follows: +Line meters and rhyme 1 xX xxX xxA 2 xX xxX xxA 3 xX xxB or xxX xxB 4 xX xxB or xxX xxB 5 xX xxX xxA +An example of a limerick: + _Old Man with a Beard_ +There was an Old Man with a beard Who said, ""It is just as I feared!— Two Owls and a Hen, Four Larks and a Wren, Have all built their nests in my beard!"" +Edward Lear (1) +While the above example is a very tame example of a limerick, there are a lot of very pornographic limericks posted in the erotic poetry sections of Literotica. The limerick offers a simple introduction into combining meter, rhyme and humor into poetry. The other forms outlined above are also relatively simple forms that can ease a poet into form poetry without overburdening him or her with strict criteria and rules. You should try several of the forms described above, in a short amount of time you can have some reasonable poems. +**Documentation:** +1\.

Amaze: The Cinquain Journal ""An Introduction to the American Cinquain,"" by Denis Garrison http://www(dot)amaze-cinquain(dot)com/" +561,"How to Write ""Above the Fray""",WFEATHER,How To,2005-06-06,2005-06-06,2022-01-04 08:34:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-above-the-fray,Suggested elements for creating high-quality erotica.,"['Guidelines', 'Guides', 'High-Quality', 'How To', 'How-To', 'Quality']",4.55,"I will be the first to admit that I am far from being the best writer on Literotica. Especially for someone without any formal training in writing (not that it is a requirement), I certainly recognize that I can improve my skills. However, I do enjoy the many positive comments I have earned – both public and private, and they far outweigh the negative comments I have received – and it confirms that my goal in writing is generally being achieved: writing high- quality stories, writing ""above the fray."" +For several years, well before I discovered Literotica, I primarily scanned Usenet newsgroups for erotic tales. One needs only spend ten minutes scanning Usenet to recognize that there are a lot of poorly-written stories surfing the electrons. There are also some true gems to be found on Usenet, and certain authors' names are synonymous with the well-deserved phrase ""always excellent,"" but in general, the overall level of quality certainly needs to be raised. On occasion, however, there will be a great concept hidden within a poorly-written story. +That is what prompted my first attempt at erotica: I discovered an intriguing concept – a couple using magic to help conceive a child – deeply hidden within poor execution. I had not even finished reading that particular tale when I felt the urge, the need, to make my own attempt at writing erotica, specifically with the same general concept. Thus, ""Once a Maiden"" was (magically conceived and) delivered into the electronic universe. During the writing process, I specifically wanted to write ""above the fray,"" and as I nurtured my first story, I kept a number of concepts in mind, detailed below. +The response was quite positive. I received several enthusiastic e-mails, and that prompted me to consider writing another erotic tale. ""Yanari"" (the original) was next, intended as a stand-alone tale, and it was instantly met with a positive response, including a few requests for sequels. During that fall and winter, I wrote a few others (including some too short to be accepted by Literotica), which were generally met with a positive reception. All this confirmed that I was indeed writing ""above the fray."" +Once I discovered Literotica and quickly realized the impressive level of quality stories on this site, I knew that I had to submit my own works, that this would tell me whether I was truly achieving my goal. The early responses were just as positive as when I had been writing ""for"" Usenet, and propelled me onward in my writing ""career."" +Granted, I have at times become so caught up in a story's concept or in a particular set of details that I have neglected some of the elements which I feel has helped me to generally write ""above the fray;"" the sum of the ratings and comments (both public and private) always indicate that accordingly, and also serve to nudge me back toward my ultimate goal in writing. +Exactly what do I feel are the steps to writing ""above the fray?"" I try to always keep these elements in mind to create high-quality stories: +1.) First and foremost, respect is key. If the characters truly respect each other, then whatever type of relationship they have (or develop) in the story will come through as genuine to the reader. This in itself does not preclude the wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am type of story, and also will not overcome horrendous grammar, but it is an important first step. However, there are times when respect is illogical, or at least troublesome, such as in non- consent stories or in erotic horror tales. +2.) Originality is also very beneficial. Originality can be expressed in many forms. It may be a novel subject matter for an erotic tale. It may be an invention of a convention in a particular genre. It may be an unusual setting. Or it may be that the originality is a banal, everyday, mundane event with one particular detail which shocks the reader (and perhaps secondary or tertiary characters). +3.) Grammar, punctuation, and spelling are all very important as well. When used correctly, these three seemingly-disparate keys all help the story to flow smoothly, and they all fall into the background of the reader's attention – when they come to the foreground of the mind, however, it typically means that one or more of these keys have been misused. While word processing programs such as Microsoft Word can check these keys for the author, they can also be misleading – for example, Word absolutely hates my writing style (so I no longer use grammar check), and its dictionary is quite lacking in my opinion (an opinion admittedly formed during my ten years in Academia, almost constantly writing essays and other papers in several languages for various classes). Then there is also the inherent downfall of ""misspelled"" words actually being in the dictionary, such as ""slit"" versus ""slot"" (the ""i"" and the ""o"" are adjacent on a QWERTY keyboard). +4.) Inspiration is also important, although perhaps overlooked by some authors. Inspiration can come from seemingly everywhere. Of course, some of my stories are based upon actual experiences, and others upon fantasies. But some can be ""triggered"" by the most unexpected situations or elements: a girl boarding a bus, a specific word or phrase in a friend's letter, an image seen while surfing the 500-channel mediaverse, a ""what if"" scenario (what if a childhood imaginary friend suddenly made an appearance to a college student?), or even an intriguing concept in someone else's poorly-written story. +5.) So many erotic stories use ""dirty words"" copiously. This is for me the biggest area of concentration. ""Cock,"" ""tits,"" ""fuck,"" and the like can greatly detract from the flow of the story, especially when the other elements are being observed during the writing process. This does not mean, of course, that such words do not have their place. What this does mean, however, is that ""dirty words"" take on greatly significant meanings when used only sparingly to make a point – perhaps to reveal a character's personality, or to make an admission much more shocking. +6.) Related to the lack of ""dirty words"" is the use of vocabulary in general. I must admit that I love a good thesaurus. While a thesaurus can be useful for selecting ""big words"" (""simultaneously"" has long been one of my favorite ""big words""), it can also be handy for finding replacements for a ""dirty word"" (such as replacing ""cock"" with ""erection"") or a word which has been used too often in the story, or to convey a different sensation created by the same action (for example, ""caress"" versus ""fondle"" versus ""stroke""). It is definitely a huge advantage for the author to already have a very broad vocabulary, and here, the one thing I heard most often when studying for the SAT and ACT is very much true: Those who spend a lot of time reading tend to perform better on the verbal sections of these tests because they have been exposed to a broader range of vocabulary. +7.) Dialogue, while not necessary, can add a great dimension to one's stories. When I first began to write erotica, I did not use much dialogue, as I felt it generally took away from the story itself. Over time, I have become more and more comfortable with dialogue, a fact which a few close friends have mentioned to me on several occasions. However, dialogue should be used to add to the tale in some way – to reveal more about a character's personality, perhaps, or as an integral means to express a character's wants or needs. +8.) Each story – erotic or not – should have a specific intended audience. This can help to set the author's mind toward delivering the best possible story for that audience. By having a specific audience, the story may require a different writing style, such as the unconventional usage of capitalized and lower-case letters in BDSM-themed erotica. But most importantly, each story should be one the author would personally want to read – not just at the moment it is being written, but also two weeks, six months, ten years, three millennia after the tale has been completed. +9.) Some people have privately called me ""prolific"" and clearly meant that as a compliment; as I write this, I have eighty-four entries on Literotica, with one pending (other than this article). To some extent, I scoff at this – I have never tried to write as much as possible in as little time as possible. Writing to be prolific is in my opinion a very good way to negate any chance of writing ""above the fray,"" as the mind would then not be focused on these elements. To borrow a cliché, ""Age is just a number;"" the same is true about the number of entries linked to a username – I may have eight-four entries as I write this, but my favorite Literotica author has only five entries, and I consider all five of those to be of higher quality than my own writings. +I have no doubt that this how-to entry will be somewhat controversial, but I see that as positive. Certainly, I am not advocating that every author of erotica should focus solely upon these elements in an effort to produce higher-quality stories. By positing these elements on the Internet, I am not suggesting that there is no room for an author's experimentation, nor do I propose that there is only one way to achieve a high-quality story. +To paraphrase what has been said on occasion about F1 racing, there is a definite need for the Minardis of F1 – slower, less-developed cars fielded by teams with lower budgets – in order to have the Ferraris – faster, highly- developed cars run by massive teams with more money than they know how to handle. That can also be true of erotica – in order to write ""above the fray,"" there must first be a ""fray"" for comparison purposes. Of course, to this point in the 2005 F1 season, Ferrari has fallen from being ""above the fray"" to being part of the ""fray,"" but does anyone doubt that Ferrari will soon be ""above the fray"" again – later this season, or next year, or in 2007? +Even following these elements, there is always the chance that a few stories will become part of the ""fray;"" I certainly have a few stories which fit Ferrari's current situation. However, these elements should provide a significant step toward an author's works being of high quality. While the elements presented here will likely be controversial, as long as one current or future author ponders the meaning and use of these elements, that in all probability means that Literotica – and the Internet as a whole – will likely have one more high-quality erotic tale to offer to readers." +562,"How To Write, Haha!",DireLilith,How To,2007-07-04,2007-07-04,2022-01-04 08:34:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-write-haha,"Yes, she dared to call it that!","['Haha!', 'How To Write', 'Positive', 'Practice', 'Writing']",,"Or rather...how to not care about everyone else's ideal story and create your own fantasy on paper, on computer, online. +I know. You're cringing right now, thinking ""gah, another 'writer' who thinks she can teach ME how to be, well, a writer!"" +The nerve! +I'm grinning now, thinking of reactions like that. This isn't a story or how- to about how to write the best piece anyone else has ever read. Not at all. Actually, this is how I write without caring what others think. It's something I'd like to share with people because the best comments I get all say that I wrote what was real, something realistic. Less contrived than people are used to. +What prompted me to write was the fact I just had the time to go through some of the public comments people leave on my stories. One of the first rules of writing ought to be ""don't read the comments people post on your stories!"" The reason for this is that we live in a realm of free speech. And that means anyone and everyone can have their say. It's a good thing. However, opinions are like assholes and everyone has one. It doesn't mean we need to smell them! +To be more to the point and to be more honest to my nature, the facts are that honesty is not an excuse to say whatever you want, whenever you want to say it. And that's what people ought to do. They ought to judge what they say and do and wonder if the person they're sharing their opinion with will walk away from the conversation saying ""that was so enlightening and intelligent"" or ""wow, what a real jerk!"" If it's the former, you probably have some great communication skills. But usually it's the latter and you've shared something with someone who didn't really ask for it. +So the first rule is, realize that not everyone who responds to a piece of your writing is going to be someone you need to hear. It's a democracy, they're allowed to talk, and we should let them. But you don't need to hear them if they can't talk positively, or find ways to help or suggest without being outright mean. Yes, people are mean when they respond to some of my stories. I just kind of feel bad for them. Out of the thousands of words we have at our disposal, the best they could come up with were negative words. That's a real shame. Let's not waste our time being angry with them. Let's move on to writing, what we love to do, okay? +You want to write. You've got the hottest fantasy in your head, the kind that makes you masturbate furiously as soon as you get into bed. Most of the fantasies I write about make me feel exactly that way! It doesn't matter to me who the people are in the story, or what names they have or what the plot of the story is. I just want to be one of them, participate in their fucking, and enjoy their sex! I love taboo stories, I especially love force scenarios. When I fantasize, I don't lie in bed thinking things like ""well would Mrs. Johnson really do that if she walked in on her husband and the maid?"" Who cares? I don't! I just want to see ""a wife"" walk in on ""her husband"" and see him fucking ""the maid"". And if I'm really into the scene, I'll BE the wife -- the maid. Hell I'll even sometimes be the husband (insert mock gasp here). That's what makes me horny. If I can pretend to be one of the characters, then I'm doing alright and I'll enjoy the story after it's on paper, later that night when I pull the quilts up and lay down to relax. That's what makes a good story. +However, we didn't go to English classes for nothing. There are key elements in a story that make it flow better. Sometimes, it's okay to forget that there ought to be a plot, and to just enjoy the naughty raunchy meeting of sweaty bodies. But if you've got an inkling of the story, if there is something special about the scenario that excites you, chances are it's the ""plot"". The ""why"" of the story. Why is Mr. Johnson fucking the maid? Why is the maid letting him -- or not? Why is the wife walking in at that exact moment? It's this type of thought process that helps the story be more than just a fuck scene. It helps it become a real story, a piece of writing. Like you, your audience often wants to become one of the characters in the story. But unlike you, they don't live in your head! They can't see the stuff you see when you create this fantasy and drag your fingers over your own skin, thinking about the erotic tale you've created. So you need to share it with them, flesh out that fantasy just a bit. Design the story for them. Let them see that Mr. Johnson feels incompetent around his wife because of her domineering nature, and the maid, an immigrant maybe, is very submissive to his will. He's been fantasizing about her in the same way we probably would! But unlike us, he's right there and he's ready to act! That's the kind of detail you want to share with your audience. Anyone can write ""man grabs maid and force fucks her, wife walks in and joins in the fucking"". But how many people will put your unique spin on it? Who else will come up with your idea on the ""why"" of the story? That's your plot, own it, and make it happen for the audience! +One of the sillier comments someone made about a story I shared recently was about the names of the characters. This person actually posted that a story should not have characters with names the same or even similar. I was staring at the comment for a brief moment, disbelieving. I thought, was that the best you could bring? Because it was just crazy. +Yes, there are ""rules"" to writing. We learn them at the university level, the do's and don't's of writing. DO explain this. DON'T follow this path. DO, do, do. DON'T, don't, don't. +Your third rule for writing? Throw that out the damned window, nail the window shut and ignore the incessant tapping you'll hear for the rest of your writing career. Why? Why take all these courses, then? Why do they teach all this stuff in higher education about how writing should be? +Well, and this is just a theory, it's like the laws of the land. Laws don't exist so that smart people can feel constrained and restricted and bound to silly decrees that just don't seem to apply to them. If you're a race car driver by trade, following the speed limit seems ridiculous when YOU of all people know how to handle a car in a skid. Why should you follow the rules? Why do the rules exist? It's frustrating, annoying and sometimes depressing and defeating! +Rules exist for the stupid. They exist for the innocent. And they exist for those who do not know how to handle a car in a skid, who would crap their pants if a controlled skidding car went by theirs. Those are the people that the rules apply to. Laws are for people who don't know better. And when people who do think they know better follow those rules, we're all safe. When people break those rules, thinking that they are smarter and don't have to follow them, or that the rules don't apply in their case, ignorant and innocent people are at risk. +That's an opinion. Smelly, isn't it! And what does any of that have to do with writing, anyway? +In writing, there are 'rules'. In writing, there are accidents, crashes, dreadful cases of spelling mistakes and editing errors. Atrocious writing abounds! Unlike driving, more people are apt to follow the rules than not. Okay well they like to believe they're following the rules, even when someone else looks and shudders. And we're so terrible when it comes to someone else's writing, especially if we have any experience with the 'rules' ourselves. Oh they should have put an apostrophe there! Oh what are all those exclamation marks doing there? Well I guess they could put a new paragraph there -- if they really don't care about the rules! +For the most part, I follow the rules. I don't follow them because I'm a strict believer. I follow them out of habit, because I had English classes with teachers who made me want to follow them. And for the most part, they work for me. I've got a great editor right now who is teaching me things like that the word ""infront"" is no longer ""infront"" but now ""in front"". Used to be the other way around, you know! So I adhere to some rules, that's the truth. +Do I believe in the rules? I do not. I don't worship them. I don't always apply them. And if I see a story of mine straying, I will let it. Yes. I do make things up as I go along. And no, I don't write out a plot graph for every story. Truth be told, when I start to type a story, I have NO idea how it will end! It's true! Sometimes, I only know the ending, and not the beginning or the middle! +What happened to the rules for writing? What happened to the plot graph, the climax, anti climax -- and other complicated things people spend so much money to learn and that they need to see in a story to feel fulfilled as readers and writers? +Who cares? Not me. +When I write, I just let the story come out. I honestly write stories in my head, from beginning to end sometimes. Other times, I have a pure newborn idea or concept in my head, and I have no idea how it wants to be born until it hits the page. Only then will things start to come together. I stumble. A lot. But I remember that it's about the idea, the fantasy, and not about the rules. The story will sort itself out. A writer's natural sense of creativity will fill in the blanks and flesh out the tale you're trying to tell. When I'm doubting, I don't fall back on the rules. I fall back on what excites me. I've got a lot of stories posted at this site. Take a look at them all when you have time, and you'll see exactly what excites me. There are repeat phrases, words strung together that you'll see again and again. The rules would suggest that to be a good writer, I must deviate from doing such obvious repetition. I, as a ""good enough"" writer, will tell you that writing is about me, my likes, my wants, my creativity and my desires. +If I'm writing a story, and it's about two people fucking, in most cases I don't care what their names are. There are rules for names, apparently. As a ""good enough"" writer, I don't care. I might be writing while some television show is on. Suddenly my characters are named Ben and Jilly, Samantha and Tabitha, Theresa and Miguel. Who cares? I usually have no care for that part of the story. I just want them to fuck! And enjoy it like I would if I were them! +I should be clear that rules in writing, like rules of the road, apply in some cases if you want or need them to. If you're really stuck, maybe you need to fall back on them. Maybe you rely on what you've learned in school. There is nothing wrong with that. When you read someone else's writing though, please don't expect them to put as much importance and reverence into the rules as you do. Don't hold other writers up to the same template as yourself. You'll end up giving a stinky opinion, or could end up secretly doubting your own abilities. +The rules exist because sometimes when some people read a story, they can't see anything but the rules. They want to see the hero, they want to see the antagonist, they want to be able to plot the story on a graph and know exactly where the climax is. Anything that deviates from the rules is to them like a highway pile-up. They really feel that great writing, even the most surprising, unexpected plot twists, are all part of the rules. +I don't believe that. I don't think it's truth. And I happily encourage new writers to get into accidents! You're writing your fantasy, you're writing what's exciting to you. Do all your fantasies start with ""once upon a time"" or an explanation of all events about to happen? For me, the proper use of an anti climax won't figure into whether my masturbation session is juicy or not. I just want my characters to fuck! And that's what lots of the readers want -- to read about fucking! +I should be clear here about the rules. The rules I'm sharing with you are my rules. Consider them ""un-rules"" maybe. The rules you might have learned at the university or college level are not really my rules, and nothing I could teach you about. My rules are similar. But you can live without my rules! And you can write wonderful stories without my rules! Without any rules and just your own exciting imagination, you'll write stories people want to read. +Guess what? For every pervert out there, there is an artist who creates exactly the kind of art that pervert wants to see. There is a photographer who makes pictures in exactly the right style to please that pervert. There are also writers who will write exactly the kind of story that pervert would want to read. +Believe it. +No matter how ""terrible"" your work is, someone will enjoy it. In the comments on my stories, you'll find well spoken people berating me for a lack of this or a mis-use of that. You'll also find people just as literate telling me how wonderful I did this topic or handled this concept. I got an email recently from someone telling me I handled the intricacies of incestuous relationships with a true delicate intimacy. What? I did what? Well, okay, I guess they liked the story! +Not all of your fans will be people you want to have in your fan list. Who cares? Why are you sharing your story in the first place? Isn't it to have someone else read it besides you? If you're trying to write the greatest novel ever, a real epic -- stop posting here. This is not the place for someone with such ambitions; at least it's not the place to share such pieces. But if you want to really have people read your work, this place is it. As writers, we usually (but not always) just want to be read! If we wanted to only write for ourselves, we'd probably just take up blogging, journaling, writing in the diary we keep under the bed. If you're writing on a public forum, you want to share your work. There's nothing wrong with that! +Do you want fans, though? Or are you looking to improve your skills? Are you just trying to get your name out there? Or are you trying to see if you really have what it takes to be a writer, one that others will search for and anxiously wait for more stories from? What is it about writing that excites you so much that you take the bold step of putting your stories out in the public eye? +Figure that out for yourself. Don't hear other people's reasons and decide that they are yours. Own your own reasons. Why do I write? I write because the idea that something that excites me will also excite someone else kind of turns me on. I don't write so I can be part of a larger community. I don't write so I can prove how great a writer I am to myself or others. I really am excited by my stories personally, some more than others. And to share them with people who will read them and feel even an ounce of the horny passion these stories inspire in me, well, that's the exciting thing for me. +When people post negative comments on my stories, I tend to ignore it. I've had people send me emails telling me that they went through all of my works so far and have compiled a list of errors, mistakes or faux pas I made. Wow, that's a really bored person right there! I laughed and told the person that they were really just being critical and that I hadn't asked for their help -- more or less a curt thanks but no thanks. The person responded by telling me they were not taking any more email from me and were putting me on ignore. I'm not kidding! I didn't have to freak out on that person, or cuss them or point out how crappy their work was. I think they must have done all that to themselves already in their head. When I didn't give in to the drama and just brushed them off, they kept right on going and pretended I had said the most heinous things. I had indeed insulted them, by the sheer fact that I told them they were not worth my time. When it comes to someone posting negative comments, sometimes that's what they're really searching for. They just want attention. +So another of my rules -- deciding who you want to impress, why you're writing in the first place, and focusing on that instead of trying to pander to the people who make themselves out to be professional writers. +I've really found that great writers do exist here. I've got one as an editor. He's courteous, respectful and always accepting. When he makes notes in my stories, he explains why he would change this or that. He realizes something very important about writing, the next rule I'll give maybe. He realizes that each writer has a certain style that suits them. He doesn't push me to make the changes, he doesn't say that he's the better writer and should know better than me. He really just says things like ""I would do this bit like this, but what you have still flows"" or ""move this to this spot to make it work better, up to you"". And he helps me, and I'm eternally grateful to have found him. +Style. What's style? Is it how you wear your hair or clothes? Or is it just the way of things for you? It really is how you are, how you live your life. Attitudes are pervasive. For some people, writing about domination is natural. It's their style because it's something they're familiar with. For others, to write about domination is an opportunity to explore something that they might otherwise avoid. Domination may not be their style. But how they write about new things in an exciting way just might be. +Your style is unique to you. Every writer has their own style. I have mine. I am spontaneous as a writer most times, though I have some great epics going that I just don't share here; it's not the place for sharing those stories. When I say spontaneous, I don't mean in the way that a hot eighteen year old girl is spontaneous. Yum! What I mean for myself is, I don't create my stories to follow the ""rules"". I write on the spot most times. I also work best under pressure. I don't have much desire to go over my work after the fact and edit it out. I end up cutting ""me"" out of stories if I do that. Instead I use an editor, something that was very scary for me originally but now has only good benefits to my work. That's my style. I'm in it for the fucking! Even this piece I'm writing now was borne out of spontaneous literary combustion! I saw people posting, thought a bit about what they were posting, and decided I had something to say about it. That's it. And I think that's evident. People can't really say my work is contrived, even when they're grumpily pointing out that it seems JUST like someone else's story, or is a theme that seems popular in a particular genre or whatever. I know that when I sit down, I have no real idea of what's going to happen. To fall back on the car metaphor, I'm the crazy fourteen year old who stole dad's car and is careening down the highway full speed, passing other cars, scaring the poop out of people and dodging in and out of oncoming traffic. That's my style. Out of this come some really great pieces that I'm proud of. For the most part, my stories are just exciting to me and that's all I needed them to be; I needed them to be exciting to me and to the perverts I know who will read them and also masturbate till their hands are sore! What more should a writer ask for, if not that? +Best rule on writing that anyone could give you is to just write. Practice. If you don't know what your style is right now, if you don't know about the rules of writing that others will undoubtedly impress upon you, or if you aren't sure who you are trying to impress -- just get on with the business of writing. The joy of writing! +If you've been told that your work is no good, that you don't know what you're doing, that you should leave writing to those that know how -- take a breath. Realize that these sorts of people are exactly the kind who are not your audience. They're just bored if they're saying mean things and trying to make you feel bad. And don't fall for the ""I was just trying to help"" line either. Unless you asked them for help, commentary that isn't positive is really just mean spirited. +Focus on your self. You are probably writing something that started inside you. Be it a true fantasy piece or just the tale of two folks fucking that you saw on a porno, it's your story. Don't let others judge for you how it should come out. And don't be hard on yourself. In this world, there are so many people who are bored and lonely and looking to be noticed even if it's for something not nice. Like dogs begging at the table, if we stop feeding them they'll learn that they have nothing to gain from what they're doing. +If you wrote a story every day, your writing would improve. It honestly would. A ""terrible"" writer would not remain a terrible writer if they wrote one story every day. You alone know what you need to improve, what you want your style to develop to, how you want your skills to grow. So write! Reread and edit, if you think you should. And know that even the worst crap writing gets read, even if it's just by someone's old English teacher who doesn't like young whippersnappers breaking the rules. Three more little sayings or pieces of wisdom you'd find on any fridge magnet or bumper snicker. I follow both of these! +Those that mind don't matter and those that matter don't mind. (Dr. Seuss said that, lots of people thought he was a terrible writer too.) +Make up the rules as you go along! +Do what you love, and the rest WILL follow! +It really will. You can be a great writer. Maybe...you already are!" +563,How To,mstwistedangel,How To,2011-02-24,2011-03-20,2022-01-04 08:35:00,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-anal-sex,"1. Simple explanation of approaching anal sex. 2. A detailed, but simple explaination on how to fist fuck.",['Anal Sex Advice'],4.32,"A lot of women hear 'anal sex' and their immediate reaction is ""NO WAY, EXIT ONLY!"" Either they aren't comfortable with it, or they've had a bad experience. A bad first experience with anal sex can destroy the possibility of learning if it's something a person enjoys, tolerates, or simply can't get enough of! +Please guys don't push it! The worst thing you can do is try to force this experience on a woman; she will resent you for pushing her into it and then not find any pleasure in it because she feels manipulated into it. Anal sex is a very intimate act. It requires a degree of trust that you simply can not betray. +1\. Don't rush it, make sure she's relaxed, comfortable and warmed up. Sometimes it's best to try this after you've been inside her pussy and she's very turned on and wet. +2\. Relaxing the muscles. Start by slowly sliding 1 well lubed finger inside her anus, gently! Not too deep to start with. Her body language will guide you. When she's sufficiently relaxed and comfortable with you fucking her ass with 1 finger then gently slide a second finger in and repeat the relaxing gentle finger fucking. Often times, paying attention to her clit will assist in her comfort and relaxation. You have two hands and a tongue, you can easily use your other hand to rub her clit, or better yet, gently lick and suck her clit as you slide your finger into her ass. +3\. LUBE! LUBE! LUBE! This simply can't be stressed enough. The right lube is essential and it may take time to find the one that works best for her. It's always recommended that you use a water based lube, but they can wear out easily. Some of the new products can make her more or less sensitive, and some even tingle, which she may not appreciate. Talk about it before, during, and after. Find what works for you both. It's not just about you, it's about her pleasure too. +4\. When she's ready for you to slide your cock in her ass, get her into a comfortable position. For someone new to anal sex, you may try the ""Spooning"" position. It allows her a little more control of the depth and stops YOU from going too deep. LUBE your cock just like you did your fingers. Once it's sufficiently lubed, slowly slide the tip in, a little at a time, let her breathing and body language guide you. Ladies, feel free to place your hand behind you against his stomach and hold him back until you are ready for him to go further inside you. Men, remember if she does this, FOLLOW her hand, if you feel pressure against your stomach from her hand it means STOP for a moment, let her body relax again. +5\. Once you have fully penetrated her, begin to move slowly or allow her to do the moving. It can be an incredible experience for a woman and for YOU. Helping her ease into this can also include gently massaging her clit as you begin fucking her. Once she's reached orgasm, you will find that she needs you to remain very still for a few moments. It is a very intense orgasm!! Tip: Rubbing her clit can intensify her orgasm, even taking her hand and guiding her own fingers to her clit, yours over hers or hers over yours. +6\. Consider using a condom. Men can get infections too, so paying close attention to protecting yourself, as a man, is very important as well. If you are adamantly against using a condom, always clean up well with soap and water after. I personally recommend a hot lovers shower afterwards, but that's just me. *wink* +AND FINALLY: +Don't ever place the penis directly from inside the anus into another part of your body. This means that if you decide that anal play is a form of pleasure that precedes oral or vaginal sex, be sure to wash the penis carefully with warm soap and water before reinserting it. The bacteria that live in the anal area can produce infection or irritation if they transfer to another part of your body, so pay extra attention to cleanliness. +In the end, don't forget that most couples need practice when it comes to trying something new with their sexuality. If things don't work right the first time, don't get discouraged. Keep trying. Be patient and gentle with yourself and with your partner. Take your time. And above all, enjoy the fun of exploring! + +" +564,How To: Create a Golem,Bebop3,How To,2020-10-21,2020-10-21,2022-01-04 08:35:02,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-create-a-golem,Step by step instructions to create your own golem!,"['Go Mets 2021', 'Golem', 'Halloween 2020', 'Kabbalah', 'No Ninjas']",4.66,"**How To: Create a Golem** + **** + **1 Collect Virgin Soil** +לאסוף אדמה בתולה +There is a different type of cold that reaches beyond the limitations of temperature. It's a sterile, unemotional beast that reminds you that man is mortal and civilization is a facade that can be stripped away. This cold seeped into my soul as I trudged my way back into the truck and began removing my protective gear. +Our drilling was done. We'd removed the clay from under the tundra and had plenty of ice that hadn't been liquid in millennia. I stared out the window as Joe drove us back to the base. It was a barren and stark landscape that offered neither comfort nor hope. +Joe had the powerful halogen lights on as we drove and the fleeting daylight gave up its fight against the twilight. +""What the fuck!?"" +Striding from the snow onto the worn pathway in front of us, snow embanked on the sides, the creature lurched towards the truck.

Again. + **2 Collect Fresh Water** + **That Has Never Been Poured Into A Vessel** +לאסוף מים מתוקים +The clay was in crates and the frozen water was stored in temperature- controlled containers. As the helicopter took off I wondered if I was leaving the men there to their deaths. Too tired to weep and unable to sleep, I put my headphones on again and listened to the almost endless recitation of Hebrew phrases. +Opening my dog-eared copy of _Sefir Yezirah_ , known in English as the _Book of Creation_ , I tried to concentrate as we flew to Williams Field at McMurdo Station. The constant drone of the engines acted as white noise and I was able to push everything else aside. +I was bone-weary and worn down to a shadow of who I used to be. The hunt was relentless. Trying to be proactive as I fled had drained me. It had been less than a year but felt like a lifetime. My eyes ached and felt dry. Eventually putting the book down, I felt myself slipping away, dreaming of long hot showers and family that was now dead, killed to satisfy a twisted karmic debt that has lived beyond mortal limitations. + **3 Gather Pure White Vestments** +לאסוף וסטים לבנים טהורים +My money, like my future, was slipping through my fingers. One of the only benefits of having your relatives stalked and killed is that you found inheritances coming your way. A year ago I was a wealthy man. Now I was using the last of my savings to finance an impossible scheme. +The phone refused to ring and every minute I waited felt like a lifetime. I lay on my bed staring up at the ceiling fan as rippled shadows played across the room. I tried to make the most of the weeks, days, and hours I had left. My sister's last call to me was saved on my phone. I'd listen to it over and over while staring at her picture, her voice fading into familiar sounds as the words lost meaning. +The sounds were comforting and familiar, bringing peace to my soul. Childhood memories swam forward, the two of us at the beach building sandcastles, drinking those store-brand sodas Mom bought, and throwing the crusts from our sandwiches to the seagulls. +Like the rising tide slowly encroaching on our creations, breaking them down, tearing them apart, the creature methodically destroyed my family. My parents' mysterious deaths in Germany, my sister's death in Brooklyn, and so on throughout the years. No one in my family died of old age. +Now I was the only one left to remember them, and if this attempt failed, I would be gone as well. +Not far from Mahane Yehuda Market in Jerusalem, I could hear the distant voices of merchants reaching my open window, and still, I waited. The tailor was the artisan of choice for Hasidim of means. He needed wool from a snow- white ram, specially crafted scissors that had been used for no other garments, and other implements that continued to drain my money. +A minyan was formed and compensated with more of my resources. They prayed continuously as the tailor cut, snipped, and sewed. Ten Jewish men reciting ancient prayers that had been passed down from generation to generation. +Closing my eyes, I wondered how long it would be before my sister's face would become less distinct in my memories, when it would start to fade as my parents' had. I realized that I might not live long enough for that to be a concern when the phone rang. +""Hello?"" +""Dr. Franks? It is done. You may pick them up anytime before sunset."" +Sighing, I sat up. ""Thank you. I'll be there within the hour."" + **4 Discover The Name Of God** +לגלות את שמו של אלוהים +Everything I was working on was the longest of longshots. Of each bizarre component, the most far-fetched was determining the true name of God. None of this was an exact science. The closest you were able to get to perfection in each step, the greater your chance of success, but according to legend, there was wiggle room. +If your clay wasn't the purest, if your shaped body wasn't worthy of Michelangelo, if your garments weren't cut to exactly the right length the project could still succeed. If, however, the name of God was wrong or incomplete or was more of a description of an aspect of God, the resulting golem would be highly flawed. +Seven years ago I met Sarina Albohim, an Ethiopian archeologist. She was convinced that YHWH and Elohim were correct but limited. Sarina was as beautiful as she was brilliant. We spent many days drinking, eating, and passionately debating the merits of proto-Hebrew and the Gnostic Gospels. Those days were often followed by nights in her bed or mine. +I knew the horrors that had befallen my family, and I couldn't condemn Sarina to such a fate if or when I became the creature's prey. As much as we would have preferred our dalliances to grow into something more permanent, we distanced ourselves. +Sarina traveled and researched while I funded her efforts. The tetragrammaton needed amending, in her learned opinion. She joined the staff of Cambridge and studied under Professor Janezeeta McGillicuddy, the expert in Semitic languages. +We spoke daily. Sometimes it was a few words, other times it was hours. No matter what we spoke of on the surface, the subtext was always the same. We shared a yearning for each other, to be together, to live our lives entwined in the other's heart and soul. +And then the creature came for me. It was odd questions at first. ""Dr. Franks, did that man reach you? He said he was an old friend, but his... Well, I thought he might be a patient. That poor man."" +There were two times when I escaped him. A glimpse of a large, incongruous body, arms long enough to snatch me and pull me into the darkness and I was gone, running, making my escape. I knew my safety was temporary. I wouldn't always get away. +His grotesque laughter would follow after me, the echoes chasing that of my footsteps. Did he allow me to escape? Was he playing with me? +The last I spoke to Sarina she was heading home to Axum in Ethiopia. There is a priest there that attends what they claim is the Ark of the Covenant. She'd somehow arranged to have him inscribe her version of Eloha on the shem that will be inserted under the tongue of our golem. +Working with her mentor on fragments of gnostic gospels found in Nag Hammadi and sold on the black market, they came to believe that a more complete name of God included both the masculine and feminine. Without both, any attempt to create life was doomed to failure and corruption. +I had no idea how she convinced the priest to aid her, how she got past the fabled blue gates that led to the church that was the home of the supposed Ark or if her efforts would be fruitful. +All I could do was trust in her genius and dedication. + **5 Craft The Body** +לעצב את הגוף +I rented converted warehouse space in Brooklyn, the same borough where my sister had died, and oversaw the delivery of everything I'd accumulated. Fasting for days whilst praying continuously, I had sculptors guide me as I shaped the clay and kneaded in the water. +Separated by a curtain but in the same room, I had another minyan of ten Jewish men reciting prayers as I worked. They thought me eccentric and maybe a bit mad. They were right, but my money was good and they could see no harm. +My vestments slowly took on the reddish hue of the clay as I worked. Pausing often, I would stretch my shaking hands and let them still. Unlike Jonathan, I'd waited my time and incurred no curse as I ate from the honeycomb. My blood sugar rose, the trembling halted and I went back to work. +""A little higher on the shoulder, Dr. Franks."" I'd listen and add more clay. +Artists abounded in Brooklyn, and it seemed like every one of them had boundless talent and empty pockets. They also thought I was eccentric and maybe a bit mad. They also were right, but my pockets were still deep enough to ensure their assistance. +Earbuds in, they often had to wave their hands in front of me to get my attention. They were under strict orders to not touch me or my vestments. The repeated phrases I listened to lost all meaning and became just sounds as I shaped and molded. +Smells that shouldn't and likely didn't exist began to fill the room. Hot copper and rich spices were redolent and pushed my other senses out of focus. I alternated between feeling chilled and flushed, and found myself forcing my eyes to blink so they didn't dry out. +I was losing what was left of my mind. + **6 Carve Your Commands** +לגלף את הפקודות שלך +Protect, or lagen in Hebrew. להגן +It was to be carved into the side of my creation's head. +Knowing my limitations as an artist, I cheated. A stencil was created and then affixed parallel to the head. I used that. The blade went through the stencil and into the skull and I simply followed the pattern. +If this worked, our creation would need direction, a raison d'être. +Protect. Save me from the hubris of the man who thought to defeat death. + **7 Insert The Shem** +הכנס את הכניסה +I washed and then washed again. Opening the box with reverence, I removed the small piece of papyrus, rolled it carefully, and approached the form. Kneeling, I added an informal prayer that was closer to begging than anything else. +Inserting it into the mouth and under the nascent tongue, I sat back on my haunches and stared at the body I'd molded. +One way or another, we neared the end. + **8 Recite The Prayers** +לדקלם את התפילות +The artists had been dismissed long ago. It was just me, the minyan, and the clay body. I ate of the unleavened bread, consumed more honey, and made sure I had plenty of water. +Restarting the recording, I spoke along with the voice that had been a part of me for hour after hour, day after day, week after week. The words and phrases had become ingrained in my heart and soul, a part of me that needed to be, demanded to be, uttered, and released into the world. +I'd become a Kabbalist with one dedicated purpose. When this was all done I'd never dabble in such things again. It wasn't romantic or intriguing. Everything was a means to an end. +Hour after hour I spoke aloud the words. The volume seemed to grow and recede, and I wasn't sure if it was in my mind or not. The walls that enclosed my sanity were slowly being lowered. There were built-in pauses where I would drink, and as I returned to that pause, I would have some of the honey and let it coat my throat. +As I approached the final recitation I rose to my feet and stretched. Seven times I walked counterclockwise around our creation, my voice steady and even. Sparks seemed to ignite at the edge of my vision, and I shook slightly as I moved, oddly sure-footed. +My circuit completed, I stopped and stared. The clay remained clay, lacking animation. Rocking back and forth, I waited. There was nothing. More than seven years of effort resulted in a lifeless sculpture of dubious artistic merit. +Again. Again! I forced myself to walk another seven times around the form, repeating the words and phrases from the ancient text. One step after another. +Nothing. +A third time. Tears streaking down my dusty and clay-spottled face, I put one foot in front of another. One time around. A second time. Another and another until I'd circled it seven times. +No spark, no vitality, no animus. +Everything was for naught. If I lived, my family existed, they didn't all die for nothing. And yet, I'd failed. Falling to my knees, I clutched my belly and listed to my side, silent sobs wracking my body. +Eventually finding some strength, I got to my feet, drank of the water, and resigned myself to my death. I walked past the curtain and spoke to the men. I thanked them for their help and wished them well. +Walking them out, I finally noticed the rain that was pelting the building. They hustled to two vans and drove off as thunder rumbled across the night. Shivering, I went back inside. +I was disgusting. The stench of dried sweat stuck to me and I was too exhausted to do anything about it. There was a cot and I fell into it like a man obsessing about oblivion looks to the water below and steps from a bridge. Like that man, I found darkness and an ending. +Mine, however, was temporary. It was still dark as my eyes shot open. Something had awakened me. Something wrong. Something sentient. Something that shouldn't exist. Its mere presence yanked me from my sleep. +Trying to scramble from the cot, I fell to the ground. +""At last. All the years, all the hiding and we are finally at an end."" +The voice was unnatural, causing my reptilian hindbrain to scream at me to flee, hide, or fight. +I did none of that. +Slowly getting to my feet. I took the two steps to the wall and hit the switch. The lights came on and I beheld him, the nightmare that had hunted and eliminated my family. +""No pleading, Doctor? No begging? No assurances that you will not breed if I only let you live?"" +There was a restrained glee in the eyes of the malformed monstrosity. I wondered if the man who once had those eyes looked as mad. +I shook my head. ""No. No begging. Just do what you are going to do."" +""You are braver than many of your line, Herr Doctor, I will give you that, certainly braver than your forebear, the original Dr. Frankenstein. You do not quake in fear in front of your ancestor's creation. Two-hundred years. It has taken me more than two centuries, but tonight I will end the line of my creator. This not-so-modern Prometheus will have had his vengeance."" +Sighing, I looked to the ceiling and then took a deep breath. ""Not brave. I'm tired. So, so tired. Just do it."" +He tilted his head in my direction, an acknowledgment of his victory, like a gentleman gambler who had won the final hand. Taking one step towards me, he pivoted and looked behind him. The curtain was thrown to the side and She stood there. One purpose. To protect. Hand darting out, She grabbed the creature by the throat and lifted. +My many-great uncle's creature struck Her arm again and again. Her grip only loosened when She hurled him against the wall. Bellowing, he rose and charged. Striking again and again, his rage matched the storm outside the walls. +She stumbled on occasion but did little more. He never realized that he could have just left. If he was gone, She'd have nothing to protect me from. His efforts amounted to little, but She wasn't fighting back. Eventually turning towards me, he ceased his attack on my protector and moved my way. +Grabbing his shoulder, She hauled him backwards, wrapped an arm around his neck, and wrenched the head from his body. Falling to the ground, its centuries of isolation and pain were done. I staggered back a step and leaned against the wall. +Lightning lit up the sky as I saw his de-animated corpse lying on the floor, head a few feet away with lifeless eyes staring up to the rafters. +It was over. Finally, simply, over. + **9 Live** +לחיות +Sarina and I stood next to my sister's headstone. Whispering, I told Mary that she could rest now. Looking at Sarina, her hand resting on her swelling belly, I told my sister how we would continue. We would persevere and I would tell her nieces and nephews about her. +I felt something akin to eyes resting on me, watching me. Near or far, She observed from the shadows. Taking Sarina's hand, I walked with my wife back to the car content knowing that my children would be protected if another threat arose. + ********* + _Happy Halloween!

Let's begin! + **ROYALTY** +Of course, England is the seat of the monarchy and its highest title is King or Queen. At this time, Queen Elizabeth reigns supreme over England, Ireland, Wales and several other English commonwealths and territories, formally known as Queen Regnant. Her husband is formally known as Prince Consort Philip, but you usually only hear Prince Philip. Their formal last name is Mountbatten. When addressing the Queen or her consort, he or she is referred to as ""Your Majesty."" +After the King/Queen come the Prince and Princess. This would apply to Prince Charles and Princess Diana, now deceased. It also applies to others in line for the throne, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and Princess Anne. Charles is known as the Prince of Wales, Andrew is known as the Duke of York, Edward is known as the Earl of Wessex and Anne is known as the Princess Royal. The Prince/Princess is formally referred to as ""Your Highness"". The Prince's children are called Prince, as in Prince William and Prince Harry but the children of a Princess are not automatically given those titles, though they may be granted by the monarch (King/Queen). +For further information, the first born son is granted the title of ""Prince of Wales"" and his wife is known as the ""Princess of Wales"". When they were still married, the formal title would be Charles, Prince of Wales, Diana, Princess of Wales and Princes William and Harry, Princes of Wales. The second born son is granted the title of ""Duke of York"" and the third born son is the ""Earl of Wessex"". + **DUKE/DUCHESS** +The next rank is Duke and Duchess and both as formally called ""Your Grace"". Close friends might call them ""Duke"" or ""Duchess"" but most were most likely known by the name of the title, example given: ""The Duke of York, His Highness, Prince Andrew"". Prince Andrew would never be known as Duke Mountbatten. +Sons and daughters of the Duke and Duchess are known as Lord and Lady. Lesser titles that are owned by the family are usually granted to the children. + **MARQUIS – MARQUESS/MARCHIONESS** +According to Romantic Writers, the title, Marquis/Marquess did not appear until after the Regency era and would be referred to as ""Your Lordship"" or ""Your Ladyship"". Most friends of the couple would call the Marquis/Marquess by the title given. For example, Marquis Merton would be called 'Merton'. They might also be known as ""Lord"" and ""Lady"" as might their children. + **EARL/COUNTESS** +Supposedly, in Saxon times, the Earl was the highest rank of nobility, short of royalty and there are four earldoms where the title name is the same as the surname. The earl and countess are referred to as ""Your Lordship"" and ""Your Ladyship"" and their daughters are called ""Your Ladyship"". Only the eldest male is called ""Your Lordship"" while the rest use ""Honorable"", although it is mostly used for correspondence purposes. + **VISCOUNT/VISCOUNTESS** +This is a title created by the French and carries no weight as far as titles are concerned. The title name is the same as the surname. The viscount and viscountess are referred to as ""Your Lordship"" and ""Your Ladyship"" and their children are called ""Honorable"", although it is mostly used for correspondence purposes. + **BARON/BARONESS** +Baron is rarely used in England. They are referred to as Your Lordship"" and ""Your Ladyship"" and their children are simply called ""Mister"" or ""Miss"". + **BARONET/LADY** +A baronet holds a hereditary knighthood and is a member of the gentry, instead of being a member of the peerage. The baronet is known as ""Sir"" while the wife is called ""Lady"". Their children are simply called ""Mister"" or ""Miss"". + **ENGLISH ROYAL FAMILY TREE** +The current English Royal Family Tree is headed Queen Elizabeth II but let's begin just a bit earlier. One of the most famous royal scandals occurred to the eldest child of George V. George V had five boys and one girl and two of his sons were famous: Edward VIII and George VI. Edward abdicated the throne in 1936 to marry American divorcée Wallis Simpson and George VI married Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, who we all came to know as the Queen Mother. +This marriage produced Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret (who died in 2002). Queen Elizabeth married the Duke of Edinburgh, Philip, and gave birth to Charles, Anne, Andrew and Edward. Charles married the well-loved Princess Diana, who died in 1997, and their union produced Prince William and Prince Harry. Princess Anne married Captain Mark Phillips and they had two children, Peter and Zara, before divorcing in 1992. Anne has since married Commander Timothy Laurence. +Prince Andrew married ""Fergie"", otherwise known as Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York and they had two daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie while Edward finally married Sophie Rhys-Jones in 1999 and is the only child not have caused a scandal. He and Princess Sophie had a daughter in 2003. +The line of succession is as follows: Prince Charles (the Prince of Wales), Prince William (son of Charles & Diana), Prince Harry (son of Charles & Diana), Prince Andrew (the Duke of York), Princess Beatrice (daughter of Andrew & Sarah), Princess Eugenie (daughter of Andrew & Sarah), Prince Edward (the Earl of Wessex) and Princess Louise (daughter of Edward & Sophie)." +566,How to: Evaluate a Master,Barbara,How To,2002-12-26,2002-12-26,2022-01-04 08:35:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-evaluate-a-master,A Christmas Gift for fellow masochists.,"['Donkey', 'Human Race', 'Years Ago']",4.3,"As an 'older' writer, from a far off land, this time of year causes me to reflect many unusual experiences and remember events that shaped my life and made me who I am. Books that you study at school tend to alter the way you think. George Orwell wrote the classic tale 'Animal Farm' which parodied the concepts of Russia's Communist Government. Having lasting effects on me, his works trained my mind to be even more analytical. Naturally I studied the law, taking particular interest in abuses of human rights. I questioned the motives of our politicians, especially when casting my vote. You might remember, in 'Animal Farm' the politicians were the pigs and the down trodden workers were the horses, and so on. For some odd reason, I always thought about the human race in much the same way from then on. +Increasing bureaucratic intervention locally, and current move toward globalisation in central Government worry me the most. Everybody told me that you can't fight this but I never believed them. However, I do concede that it's an uphill battle to achieve success. With increased apathy out there over the last forty years or so, horses have invariably lost the battle in more recent times. I thought about donkeys instead, more and more as I grew older. +Throughout these most depressing of times there was a sad story, that I once read many years ago, that made me think positively and kept me focused. The story was both poignant yet heart-warming, spiritually uplifting and also very thought provoking. I would now like to share this fantastic tale with all my readers, for their consideration, and hopefully to alleviate some of the apathy that exists in the world today. +As many of you will be aware, the donkey has been blessed with extraordinary qualities of determination, strength and uses an incredible amount of common sense. Donkeys are widely regarded as being loving and docile, creatures that have aided man's journey through life, throughout our history. They rarely waste energy but they can carry enormous burdens to any given destination, largely without complaint. Sadly, they are frequently mistreated but somehow they never lose sight of their true purpose in life, that of usefulness to mankind. -------Sorry, I digress. Part of my rapidly advancing Alzheimer's problem, I believe. Now where was I? I need another tissue. Oh yes, I'll tell you the story first! +* * * * * +Many years ago, in a dry arid spell of weather, an elderly donkey was shuffling around looking for moist areas of vegetation to supplement his water intake requirements. The donkey had been part of a herd but the others had been sold. Now, he was over thirty years old, but had learned the art of self sufficiency because his Master wasn't wealthy and the small property that he farmed and worked on had only meagre amounts of water supply available. He looked towards the bottom of the dry well but as he leaned forward his footing slipped and he tumbled into the abyss, landing without leg injury luckily, thirty feet down. +The animal brayed loudly and got back to his feet, looking for a way of getting back to the surface. It was no use to try climbing, so the donkey waited patiently for his Master. He used the intervening time, THINKING. +Many hours later, surprised to see that the old donkey was otherwise unhurt, his Master tried to think of a way to extract the unfortunate beast. Ultimately the man decided that this task was impossible and turned to a few of his younger, fitter neighbours, for their advice. Despite all their combined efforts and different ideas, their ropes all broke and their plans failed. Sadly, the miserable donkey was unable to be retrieved from the bottom of the well by economic means, in their view. Fortunately, unlike a horse, a donkey never panics. +It was decided that the donkey was getting too old for working and of course the dried out well was totally useless. The men were all equally perplexed as they discussed the solution. One bright spark suggested that they kill two birds with one stone as it were, by digging a new well and thus burying the helpless donkey under the freshly excavated material, ultimately putting the trapped animal out of it's misery by suffocating it. It seemed like there was no alternative solution so, recognising the need for a new well, the donkey's Master reluctantly agreed with his neighbours and began digging. +After raining many shovelfuls of dirt and stones down the well, over the top of the noisy donkey, the braying finally stopped and the men carried on with their digging in peace. The only sound came from the grunting and cursing, as they continued with their efforts to locate a fresh water source that would benefit the entire neighbourhood. +Later on in the day, one man thought of a much better way of digging a well. By manufacturing a crude auger and hitching up the donkey onto a revolving yoke, This would drive the drill into the earth. Although a far better option than hand digging, his bright idea had come to pass far too late. They really should have put more effort into saving his hard working friend, the donkey, initially. +Tears ran down the farmers cheek. As the friends dug further into the ground, he kept thinking about how his faithful old workmate, and how he must have felt about being buried alive. He shut his mind to this, working even harder than the younger men, ensuring that his donkey's carcass would be completely buried by the time they finished digging, mostly trying to ease his conscience. +All the men assumed that the distressed animal must have died, by the time they stopped for their dinner and a well earned rest. They made arrangements to finish their work the next day. There was an enormous pile of dirt which had fallen short of the old well but the tired old farmer volunteered to transfer the excess dirt into the disused well, on his own, while his helpful neighbours trudged their way back home. +With a heavy heart he worked his way toward the old well, shovelling the rest of the dirt ahead of him, as he moved closer toward the edge of the dried out well. It would take years of hard labour, like this, to save up enough money to purchase another donkey. +The tired farmer staggered to the edge and threw in the last shovelful of dirt, wiping the sweat from his forehead and cursing his misfortunes. +The farmer looked down, to ascertain how much more room was available for landfill, inside what had certainly become his donkey's grave. He saw, to his amazement, that his old friend was still alive. Each time a fresh shovel load of dirt had landed on top of him the donkey shook his entire body, shaking himself clean, and then trampled the excess dirt beneath him. He had a quiet determined look in his eyes but the farmer could see that the donkey bore him no ill will. Now the animal was only a matter of a few feet away from obtaining his freedom, or was he? He still had the same Master, after all. +* * * * * +The moral of the story was obvious to me at the time I first read it. It changed the course of my life as a result, making me a far better person. [It did no harm financially, as well.] It made me a lot more philosophical in my approach to everything I did in later life. As a matter of fact, I believe that our most valuable possession, as most of us travel through life, resides between our ears whenever it gets used properly. I devised a few simple rules to follow along the way. +Think of all your troubles as another one of life's stepping stones. +Remember, life is basically unfair. You've got to get used to this. +People will always shovel dirt on you. [All manner of dirt normally.] The most important lesson to be learned is to rise above it and never give in to your initial reactions. Chucking dirt back is never useful and can only lead to further heartbreak. +You should live simply at all times, giving a lot but expecting less in return. +Keep your mind free from hatred because thoughts of revenge are quite counter productive. +[Imagine how much more useful and economic that simple approach might have been, following the universally upsetting events of last year.] +Now the human race is teetering on edge of self extinction, all over again. Problems only seem to be worsening, with all the aggressive posturing that's currently going on between our so called leaders. +Perhaps they should concentrate more effort on thinking laterally for solutions, instead. On a personal level, we could encourage this line of thought and make our voices of disapproval heard whenever our elected leaders step out of line. +Keep thinking about improving your communications and encouraging the more charitable aspects of whatever this short life of ours has to offer. +For example, feel free to publish this work, providing it's unedited, wherever you live. Send letters to newspapers, all over the country. Make your feelings known, by whatever legitimate means. +[There is much more satisfaction to be derived by benefiting your enemies, as there by reacting in irrational anger, as crazy as this might seem.] +People need to be obstinate and determined in their efforts to select a conscientious leader. One who truly has the interests of the entire species at heart. Perhaps I should explain what I mean by making this simple statement; +I now live on a small farm in New Zealand, in my retirement. The small herd of Donkeys that share my home select their own leader, using the same criteria. They remain a constant source of inspiration to me. + _Comments, both good and bad, may be made by writing to Barbara._" +567,How To: Female Ejaculation,black saphire,How To,2006-05-26,2006-05-26,2022-01-04 08:35:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-female-ejaculation,The art of bringing your lady to ejaculation.,"['Ejaculation', 'Femcum', 'Squirt', 'Squirting']",4.46,"Most women, if not all, have the ability to experience female ejaculation – or squirting. Female Ejaculation should not be confused with urinate although it may feel very similar when highly aroused. How many of you have been so turned on during sex that you found the sudden, inexplicable urge to urinate? Thinking that you are about to pee, you have restrained yourself and held back the sensation – thus depriving yourself of an ejaculate of fluid that goes along with an intense orgasm. +Female ejaculation, to me, is extremely erotic and is a pleasure both for the person ejaculating as well as the person in your company while you ejaculate. It can be related to the thrill of having a man squirt all over you (for those that are into that sort of thing), or sucking or jerking a man off and watching the results of your ministrations explode into his cum spraying out of his cock. +As mentioned earlier, the first step to achieving female ejaculation is the realisation that you can achieve it. Secondly, you must WANT to experience it and as such, you must let your body take control and not fight your sexual feelings. To this end, the most important factor is that you must be completely comfortable with your partner and you must be relaxed. +If you are afraid of creating a mess, line the bed with towels. At the very worst, just mop up after yourself! Don't deprive yourself of an awesome experience just because you are worried about creating a mess.... +This how-to will attempt to teach your partner how to give you a most unforgettable experience. After some practice, you may be able to achieve this on your own, but it is always easiest to start of being 'given' and ejaculation rather than getting frustrated trying it out on your own and not succeeding. +You should also be aware that this might not work the first time. Constant experimenting and practice will get you there in the end. +Firstly, as I mentioned earlier, relaxation and the desire to achieve ejaculation are the key. Set the ambience with scented candles, light music and extra towels nearby. Start with a lot of caressing and light touching to get your partner in the mood. Nothing spoils it faster than rushing in. Spend a lot of time kissing her and lightly stroking her body. Once she is sufficiently 'warmed up', work your way down to her pleasure zone between her legs and lick and kiss her vulva gently. +As she begins to respond to your pussy licking, slowly insert one finger into her, palm upward. Slowly fuck your index finger in and out of her as you continue licking on her clitoris. Don't go further in that past your second knuckle. +At this point, gently curl your finger toward you (as if beckoning someone) and seek out the rough, ridged area at the top inside of her pussy. This is her G-spot. Gently apply pressure to this area and using the pads of your fingertips, pull your finger toward you. Don't apply too much pressure, as this could be uncomfortable if she is not fully excited at this stage. All the while, keep licking on her clitoris and vulva. +If she complains that it doesn't feel good, reassure her. Tell her to relax and to trust you. This is extremely important as she must let her body take control and release all inhibition. +At this time, you should notice that her pussy is getting very wet. This is a good time to introduce another finger. Insert your middle finger along with your index finger – this works well for me, but it all depends which fingers you are more comfortable with. Again, go no further than the second knuckle. +Repeat the entire process of curling your fingers upwards and applying pressure to her G-spot with the pads of your fingertips. Pull your fingers toward you and then straighten them out, push them back in and then curl upwards again. Don't forget to keep licking her pussy, paying attention to light tonguing of her clitoris. +You should start getting a response from her now and she should be moaning and bucking her hips upward to meet your fingers. It is time again to reassure her and tell her to relax and trust you completely. +Apply more pressure on her G-Spot and work your fingers in-upward curl-pull toward you- then in again faster and faster. It may help to use your other hand to press gently on her abdomen, just above where your fingers are working inside her. This serves to press her G-spot down onto your fingers. +You will have to work extremely hard now as she will be very close to coming and ejaculating. Keep the fingers working inside her and be careful not to be too rough. Keep your curled fingertips pressured on her G-spot constant and rather than pulling your fingers toward you, press your palm against her clitoris and pull your hand upward – as if you are fucking your fingers against her G-spot. Keep fucking her G-spot using a constant jerking motion and be careful to use your finger pads and not your nails. +You will hear her getting really squishy inside and her pussy will feel very wet and almost sloshy with juices. Encourage her to cum, tell her not to hold back as you keep applying pressure and finger fucking the rough ridged area. +She will feel the urge to pee and she must not fight it. If she cries out ""I'm gonna pee!"" then encourage her to pee! She is not going to pee but have a female ejaculation. Keep on what you are doing with your fingers and perhaps increase her pleasure by playing with her nipples, lick her clit or whatever else excites her. +Her body will be trembling now and she will be experiencing a rather large orgasm. Again, keep encouraging her and don't stop what your fingers are doing. She will feel the pressure building up – very much like the need to pee and finally, her body will shake in orgasm as female ejaculate shoots out of her urethra. +The amount of ejaculate can vary so don't expect too much – especially the first time. After experiencing female ejaculation for the first time, the realisation will dawn that she is able to do it. The second time will be much easier and the third even easier. Most women are able to ejaculate from normal penetration or cunnilingus once they learn that they have the ability to ejaculate. Some even ejaculate every time they have sex. Once you know exactly where to touch and the right pressure to apply, you can even ejaculate through masturbation – either with your fingers or even sex toys. +This how-to works for male-female as well as female-female. For those of you that are into multiple partners, it would be a good idea to have her suck on a cock or another pussy as she gets worked up. The prime aim of this is to distract her from fighting her feelings and to concentrate completely on sex. +Female Ejaculation is very real and can be a real change to your sexual life. As a final word, always stay relaxed, trust your partner, don't try to hard and above all have fun. +Good Luck!" +568,A How To: Just Your Fingers,Pierce_Roberts,How To,2013-05-05,2013-05-05,2022-01-04 08:25:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-how-to-just-your-fingers,Let me help you get off with just your fingers.,"['Broke My Toy', 'Clit', 'Fingers', 'Masturbation', 'Sexting', 'Tornado Fingers']",4.02,"I was awoken by a text message. A friend messaged me in frantic; she had broken her toy earlier in the day. She was roused from a dream and very wet. She texted me, admitting that she had never used her fingers to pleasure herself, and was squirming in bed very frustrated. So, I replied instructions on what she should do to get herself off. What follows is each text, sending her to a hopeful climax. Enjoy. +Take your index and ring finger. Spread your lips. With your middle finger, start rubbing your clit in small circles. +Slide your middle finger down and stroke your wet hole. Bring your finger back up, and continue with small circles, pressing harder as you slide over your clit. Now, start stroking that middle finger up and down in a beckoning motion. +Plunge your index, middle, and ring fingers into your wet cunt. Soak them with your sex. Now, take those fingers and rub your lips and clit in larger circles, continuing to press harder as your lips and clit quiver with desire. +With your middle finger, explore your wanton hole. Pulling your finger inside your walls back toward your palm. Slide your ring finger in alongside your middle, and continue the same motion. Pull them out to rub your juices along your clit, and with pressure, back into your sex. Bend your wrist forward, point your index and pinkie down toward the bed, allowing your middle two fingers to explore deeper. Allow the base of your palm to rub your now very wet and tingly clit. Pulling your hand back up toward your stomach (keeping your fingers deep inside you), press your palm into your lips and clit. Pull against the front of your sex, but don't allow your fingers to escape. Start slow, and increase the speed and intensity as your desire builds. Keep curling your middle fingers as you push in and pull up against your walls. Pull out to wet your clit again. Focus on small circles and more pressure. +Bring yourself close, and now dive back in between your wet lips. They've missed you while you were focusing on your clit. +Drive as deep as your fingers can reach. Use a corkscrew motion with your fingers, twisting from the wrist. This will add extra sensation at the opening and stimulation to the g-spot. +Curl your fingers faster now.

The idea is to make the sexual frustration great for her, so that when the time comes, she will be wild for you, and the sex is mind blowing for both of you. This can happen nearly every time, if you know what to do, and how to approach her the right way. +There are THREE KEYS to mind blowing sex. +1.) Knowing Your Partner's Needs +2.) Planning: Take Your Time +3.) Tease Her: Make Her Wild +No matter how tempted you are, and I know you are, DON'T skip down to number three. Take a few minutes and learn something other women will probably never tell you, but ALL of them wish you knew. +1.) KNOW YOUR PARTNERS NEEDS: You have to know what she likes and doesn't like, not just sexually, but emotionally as well. If she is frustrated emotionally, you aren't going to get anywhere with her. Meet her emotional needs first. If she is not feeling loved, appreciated, or if you have troubles in your relationship, then take the time to fix it. THEN focus on the sexual needs. +Not every woman is the same, and not every woman will reach orgasm the same way. Some women never will because their partner is too impatient to get her there, or her EMOTIONAL needs aren't being met first. If you are too embarrassed, or impatient to ask why she isn't enjoying it, (if she isn't climaxing, she isn't enjoying it) she will be very reluctant to have sex with you. If your wife/partner consistently refuses your advances, makes excuses, rolls her eyes, and won't give you any...YOU are most likely the source of the problem. (I know, it may not seem fair to say that, but just hear me out.) WHY? Because simply put, an emotionally and sexually satisfied woman will not want to refuse her man sex, at least for long. She will hunger for it, like a cat in heat. +If you can't answer these questions, don't be so quick to call her frigid. When a man really knows what his woman wants, and actually takes the time to give it to her, she will almost NEVER refuse him intimacy. In fact, once you master the three keys, she may be the one seducing you, unless of course, she is sick or on her cycle and doesn't feel comfortable being intimate for a few days. +THE QUESTIONS: +(Don't assume you know the answers, ask her...ladies, ask him these questions too.) +What gets her in the mood? +What turns her off? +Is she stressed, depressed or angry? +Is she feeling loved by you? +Is she feeling desirable to you? +How does she like to be touched? +How does she hate to be touched? +How does she like to touch herself? +How does she WISH you would touch her? +What makes her feel more relaxed? +What makes her feel uncomfortable? +What makes her hot for YOU? +What makes her hesitant to initiate sex? +What makes her hesitant to tell you want she likes? +What are her sexual fantasies? +What kind of relationship do we have now? +What kind of relationship do you want? +What would it take to move our relationship to a ""10"" today, next week, next month? +While you're working up the courage to ask her these intimate details, try doing something romantic for her, just because. Romance your woman as if you were just getting to know her, and trying to pursue her all over again. +Do something spontaneous, like pick her a flower, rub her feet, let her pick the movie, brush her hair for her, make breakfast in bed, give her an extra long kiss goodbye, dedicate a song to her, write her a love letter, rub her shoulders, plan a picnic, send flowers to her work, just because...there are a million little things a woman would love for you to do for her, non sexual things you can do...pick one and just do it without being asked. +Find out her Love Languages (Read The Five Love Languages, by Gary Chapman) Even if SHE doesn't know them, you will be able to recognize them. Make sure your filling her tank with the right gas...(you'll have to read the book) +If you don't know the answers to these questions, it's most likely the main reason you don't have the sex life you want. It's your job to find out. She WANTS you to know the answers to these questions. She probably just doesn't know how to bring it up without risking you shutting her down; simply out of a habitually ingrained desire to avoid ""the relationship talk"". Women know most men hate talking about the relationship. I think it's because most men don't know HOW. Men, dare to be different and actually talk about your relationship and how to improve your sex life. Use the questions as a guide. She might think you've lost your mind because such a thing is so foreign to you, and it's the last thing she ever thought you would say. Feel free to print this out and show it to her, I don't mind. +Pick a time when the two of you are not busy, and NOT trying to be romantic. Shock her speechless and tell her your going to dedicate the next (however many days) making the relationship better, not just sexually. Make sure to take this seriously, be open, be honest, and make sure she knows all YOUR answers to these questions too. You'll get a much better sexual response from her once you address her emotional needs, and also share yours with her. +THE HEART OF A WOMAN-Her Emotions +At our core, women are just more emotional than men. We CAN'T change that, because we are designed that way. It's not that we have more emotions than a man, or feel things any more deeply than a man, it's simply that we are generally more comfortable expressing them. For a woman to feel most fulfilled, romantic and loved, she must have three basic emotional desires of her heart met, and not just once...but frequently: +1\. Every woman wants to be romanced—and not just when you are trying to seduce her into bed. Women all have a desire to have a great relationship, and we recognize one when we see one. We recognize a bad one too. We KNOW when we are really, truly loved, and when we are not. If you are not really in love with her, she knows it, trust me. Just because you spotted a girl across the room, chased her, wooed her and romanced her enough to ""claim her"" doesn't mean you've actually claimed her heart, and if you stop romancing your lady, she will eventually find someone else who will. +2\. Every woman wants to have a beauty to unveil. We want to know you find us enticing, attractive, lovely, radiant, sexy. There is a reason little girls like to twirl around in princess dresses and ask her daddy if she's beautiful. At a young age, daddy is the most important man in a girls life. As we get older, women want to know the men in our life finds us attractive and sexy, even after we've had a child, and aren't a prefect size six or as buxom or blonde as Barbie. Real women have flaws...just like real men do. Face it, not all men look like Ken either. So, men...don't hesitate to (truthfully and tactfully) compliment your lady. We like to know you still find us beautiful. +3\. Every woman wants to know she is irreplaceable to you. Just how every man wants a battle to fight, and a grand adventure to go on, and a princess to rescue, the lady in your life wants to know that she (as your princess) has a place in that adventure, by your side. She wants to know that you need her, and that she is the only woman in the world for you. She wants to be the one you WANT at your side, fighting life's battles and going on adventures with. +This is why women get all catty and jealous when we see our men looking at other women. It makes us feel like we aren't good enough for you, and you're looking for some kind of upgrade. We want to be wanted...and drooling over another girl doesn't make us feel wanted by you. So, no matter how ""bouncy"" (ya'll know what I'm talking about.) the neighbor lady, waitress or checkout girl is, the best response IS NOT ""Honey, I wasn't looking, I SWEAR!"". We don't buy it. The best thing you can do is say something like, ""Baby...you're so much prettier than her. I love you and I'll never want anyone else."" Then kiss her like you mean it...and make the OTHER girl jealous. ;) +Have you ever wondered why you're lady doesn't respect you as much as you'd like? It could simply be that she never learned how to respect a man growing up because her mother never respected her father, or her father was never around. It could be you haven't been behaving like a true gentleman (For example, crude language is a huge turn off to a lot of women.), or it could be that her heart isn't completely opened to you and you haven't fully claimed her heart. Women want to know the men in our lives will PROFESS his love, PROVIDE for his family and PROTECT us from danger (even if it's something as simple as making sure the car is running so we don't get stranded on the side of the road). A real gentleman will do those 3 P's for his lady, and that will help to earn him her heart, her respect and her adoration. +When you can meet the most basic desires of a woman's heart on a regular basis, she will eventually open her heart more to you, and you will earn her respect and gratitude. She will fall even more in love with you, or, in some cases, she may actually REALLY fall in love with you for the first time. Just keep in mind, you have to continually be attentive to her hearts desires and emotional needs, or she will close her heart to you, or worse, find someone else who meets those needs for her. If you've ever had a woman leave you for another man, chances are, her heart was never really yours to claim, because you didn't understand these things or meet her emotional needs in some way. A man who can do these things for his lady will NEVER have to worry about her leaving him. She won't want to, and will have no reason to. +This first step (understanding a woman's heart, and knowing the answers to these questions) is vital to a great sexual relationship with any woman. If you skip it, you'll be doomed to, at worst, very little bad sex; or, at best, mediocre sex, for the rest of your life. Ok, now for the good stuff you've been waiting for. +2.) PLANNING: TAKE YOUR TIME +The average guy can do a little kissing and caressing and be ready to go for it after a few minutes. It just takes women longer to heat up. Some women like to be taken by surprise and ravished, but most of us need a lot more time to REALLY get into it. A woman's sexuality is like a plant. It needs to be tended to, taken care of, watered regularly. Being that you're the one with the hose, you're the gardener. It's up to you to water her plant, or it will wilt and die. (I'm talking some slow and detailed foreplay here boys, not just intercourse.) +When a woman's emotional needs are being met and she feels loved and secure in the relationship, she will bloom sexually as well. (ie: you have more, hotter sex). This is where asking all those questions pays off. Some women never really bloom because the man in her life is too selfish to meet her needs—and has no freaking clue what he's missing! +Pay attention to her answers, and do your best to provide her with what she says she needs. Even if you don't get it all right at first, she will appreciate the effort you put into being romantic, and the more comfortable she will become sharing her sexual side with you. +For a woman, a fantastic night of great sex actually begins that morning. A woman actually requires several dozen non-sexual touches a day. Basically, we like to be touched, but not always in a sexual way. Holding hands, hugging, a caress, can be enough to make us feel the first twinges of desire for you, but more than that, those simple caresses help us to feel cherished and loved and desirable to you. Touch is also very therapeutic. A person who is touched a lot, in a loving way, is generally healthier throughout their lifetime. There is an old saying about an Irishman...he won't kiss his wife for 25 years, but he will kill any man who does. I heard it somewhere and always remembered that. Anyway...the point is, if your not the one doing ALL the touching a woman requires to feel loved, she is likely to find someone who will. Here is an example: +Take the time to romance her all day. Set the alarm at least an hour earlier if you can and just spend time kissing. Tell her what it is that attracts you to her, all the reasons you love her. Tell her how much you are looking forward to the night. Bring her breakfast in bed. Take a shower together...tease her a bit, but don't finish...no matter how much you both want to. The goal is to build up to the night time action. Take the time to kiss her at the door...until you're both breathless and you can't wait to come home at night, and she can't wait to have you home. +During breaks and on lunch, call her or text her...say something sexy that will make you both wish you were home right then. Arrange for her to get flowers sent to the house before you get home, or leave love notes where she will find them after you leave for work...in her car, in her purse, on the bathroom mirror, in the desk. Whatever. Use your imagination and have some fun with it. +When you get home, unplug the phone, answering machine, disconnect the doorbell, cart the kids off to a sitter, or send them to a friends house for a sleepover. Get dressed up, and take her out to dinner, it doesn't have to be expensive, but a greasy fast food burger probably won't cut it. Or make a meal at home. Cooking together can be very erotic...especially if its done naked. (Don't cook with hot grease if you go naked.) Feed each other...really talk to each other, not at each other, not about kids, school, work, bills, health problems, the respective parents...nothing that will kill the mood. Be romantic, be silly, be seductive. Take your time and enjoy the meal. +Later, take turns giving each other a massage...with warm, not hot, oils (even olive oil is great for the skin) tease each other...caress...discover every inch of her skin, find her non obvious hot zones, (collarbone, neck, ears, inner arm, feet, back of knees, her butt, her back, her sides)...its different for every woman, and she may not even know all of them. Help her discover all of them. Make her bloom. Patience is the key here. +No matter how impatient you feel, take a deep breath...do multiplication tables, count to 20, whatever works, and keep going. Focusing on her pleasure will pay off for you in the end when she calls you the best lover she's ever had, no matter what size you are. (It really doesn't matter to most women, especially if you are focusing on foreplay. If you're insecure about it, don't be. Trust me...if you tease her enough, she won't be thinking about that, and neither should you.) +Caress her, kiss her, lick her...everywhere but her breasts and her clit. This teasing will drive her nuts. You may have to keep her hands off of you. Be prepared to tie her down so she can't hurry things up. Use soft materials (like a tie, scarf or silk straps, use a square knot.) Don't stop teasing her until she's begging. This process could take hours, if you're that patient. +3.) MAKE HER WILD: Ok, now that you've sufficiently romanced, wined, dined, tickled, teased and tormented her, turn up the heat. Focus on her breasts for at least an hour...see if you can make her climax just by teasing them. Most women can, if they are aroused enough. Make it your goal of the night to see how many orgasms she can have. Don't be afraid to take directions, and let her know you WANT her to tell you what she likes. No matter how tempted you are, don't speed things up...keep teasing and her...go slow, no matter what she says. +Find her clit, or let her show you how to touch her. Put your hand there, tease her with your mouth, lips, tongue, fingers, feathers, toys...be very gentle, and ask her to direct you...don't be shy...the better she feels, the better she will make you feel later. Don't use your teeth unless she asks you to. (Imagine how it would feel if she bit down on you) It doesn't feel good for us either. Make her climax a minimum of 3-5 times before you continue. Be very gentle with her after the first one, otherwise it can really hurt. At some point, she will probably become overly sensitive...back off a little and let her cool down some. Instead, finger her gently (make sure you're nails are carefully trimmed and clean), until she wants more...then rub your fingertips on her G-Spot to make her come again. (It's on the roof of her vagina, and feels kind of spongy.) There are three ways a woman can climax. Some women prefer one over another, simply because some nerves down there are more sensitive than others. +Each woman is different and knows what feels best to her. So don't be afraid to ask her. Chances are, she will want to tell you. The first is through clitoral stimulation. Most women enjoy this a lot, but not all women will climax with this alone. The second is penetration. Not all women can climax with penetration alone and will want breast or clit play at the same time. The third is through the G-Spot, which not all men know how to find, and some women don't even know they have. If you can make her have all three types of orgasms at once, you'll be the King of her sex life. A multi-orgasmic woman can have several climaxes one right after the other...you'll know your successful if she is moaning loudly, begging, calling your name, thrashing, biting, hissing, swearing, clawing, pulling your hair, begging you to stop but holding you to her, bucking, kicking, tossing her head, whimpering, crying, trembling, rolls her eyes in the back of her head or gets as stiff as a board, squirts, grunts, groans, claws the sheets, and finally, screams at the top of her lungs. +Only then do you finally enter her. Even then, don't just pound away at her, find a rhythm and try to last as long as you can, but don't be surprised if you loose control pretty quickly. She will be a wildcat...because you actually took the time to please her the way she always imagined someone would. +Not every encounter has to be as detailed as this one, or as planned out, but the same amount of effort should be there, no matter how creative you get. Any man that takes the time to make a woman experience the best relationship and sex of her life, will never again be wishing he was getting more, but you have to be willing to wait to get her to that point. Once she has, she will bloom sexually, and pursue sex with you probably several times a week, if not every day. You will have moved well beyond a mediocre relationship to a deeply loving and satisfying experience. Once she has bloomed and gained some sexual confidence with you, she will begin seducing you, so long as you make sure to tell her what you like. You will never have to worry about her finding another man, so long as you keep in tune with her emotional and sexual needs. Once she blooms for you sexually and becomes a tiger in bed, you won't want to find woman either. Every woman WANTS to be a tiger for the man she loves...he just has to be patient enough to help her get there." +570,How To: Young Wife to Shared Wife,Tabbisfull,How To,2014-10-11,2014-10-11,2022-01-04 08:35:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-to-young-wife-to-shared-wife,How you might develop your wife into a hot shared wife.,"['Cheating Wife', 'Fuck My Wife', 'Fuckable Wife', 'Hot Wife', 'Promiscuous Wife', 'Shared Wife', 'Slut Wife', 'Toy Wife', 'Wife Sharing']",4.35,"First I would like to point out that most any wife can become a promiscuous wife. My wife had no plans of sleeping with someone else even though we often shared pillar talk and fantasized about it. This is something that goes slow but is very likely to happen if you take time to properly go about it. I would also like to point out that this might better be left fantasy. Either way, I plan to share thoughts of how this came about with my wife, the realities that you must be prepared to accept, and a few ideas that should be fun in your sex life regardless of where it leads. +First a little history. When my wife and I were in our young twenties, she worked in an upscale lingerie store in a mall. She could very easily be a lingerie model with her tight, fit, and tan little body. She had applied at several other stores. The lingerie store was the first to call, so she found herself working there. She wasn't looking specifically to work in such a store. +The store associates wore tasteful very but sexy dresses and usually relatively short. Tabi, my wife enjoyed her job. The store also had sexy outdoor attire for women, but clearly focused on indoor ware. Tabi received an employee discount for her purchases, so she often came home with pretty nice clothes, which is usually what she wore to work. +Tabi is known for being friendly, and many have described her personality as ""Bubbly."" She is petite at just over five feet barefooted. Her butt is round, curvy, and toned. She is athletic and firm. Her tits are not small or flat, but they are also not large. I would say like nice firm coconuts. +Tabi came home one day and mentioned that two men came in the store and shopped with her showing them various clothes. As she was checking them at the register with a few purchases, they told her they would like her number and said they had a well paying job for her. Tabi, being cautious and innocent, took their number instead and called them on her next break. They wanted her to be a dancer at a bachelor party. She politely declined and thanked them for the offer. +When Tabi first told me this, I was a little pissed. ""Didn't they see your ring,"" I asked. +I wanted all the details. Ultimately there wasn't much to tell. I wasn't pissed at Tabi, but I thought it was a little offensive that two men had the audacity to ask my wife to dance, and for money, at a bachelor party. I was clearly jealous and at the same time proud. After the shock wore off I was actually turned on in a way. I found it to be quite erotic to my surprise. +The incident continued to come up. Eventually we were joking about it. Then it would come up during sex. I think I brought it up first, but it became clear that she did enjoy the attention. She was quite flattered. +Allow me to point out now that you must be careful what you wish for. Some things are best left a fantasy for some. Wife sharing might be for you, and it might very well not be. I never thought it was for me. My point is that you really need to answer this question before you pursue this very far, because it can and likely will happen for real if you do properly pursue it. I personally think it's well worth at least exploring, but you never know when the last opportunity to apply the breaks might be. Like I mentioned, I'll give you some things to think about and some ideas that will very likely lead to the real thing. I will also share a bit of my own experience not that yours will likely be the same. +Many couples choose to swing. They discuss it and often the two of them decide to try it. I'm not talking about those couples. I'm gong to discuss the couples where the husband has this fantasy, and his wife is reluctant for now or is unsure. +If you go through with walking your wife in to this, these are some things you must be prepared to deal with in your mind once you are past the point of no return. Remember, if your wife does sleep with another man, she, nor he, nor you, can take it back. The first time will likely be a shock to one or both of you. If this moves from fantasy to reality, consider the fact that another man will see your wife nude. He will touch and lick your wife in her intimate places. He will eventually have his dick inside your wife. He will fuck her for his own pleasure and enjoy her body. Most likely he will cum inside your wife. Men who fuck other men's wives are not likely to pull out, and they are unlikely to wear a condom since she is married. It's possible that he will breed your wife making her pregnant., but hopefully your wife will mitigate this possibility unless she wants to be pregnant. Men who fuck other men's wives will likely at least try to fuck your wife in her behind. I always let them know that my wife is not interested in anal. I told one friend that it was okay with me if she wanted it, but that I doubt that she does. +When men, even friends fuck your wife, they will do everything they want with her. Remember that it is sex for them, and they will try anything. They may get attached to her or at least want regular sex with her. If they know that you know, they might even tell you what they did and would like to do. I literally had a friend ask my permission to take my wife away for a weekend vacation. Most of these things come as somewhat of a shock regardless of what you were planning. +I'll tell you how to lead your wife into this, but what if she cheats before you realize that she is ready. Are you prepared for her to have sex without you present? I believe most wives are more comfortable with sleeping with someone else in privacy at least their first time. This is what happened to me. +I became somewhat obsessed with the idea and not necessarily with it actually happening. Someone else with my wife became an obsession for me. However, I was truly only obsessed with the erotic idea. We had fantasized and roll played. The fantasizing turned her on too, but she always said that the play was just for our own fun. I still thought it was a hot idea, but I was convinced that it wouldn't happen for real. I was satisfied with the fantasy. +It became more interesting to her as I convinced her to ""Be sexy"", and to ""enjoy her sexuality."" Soon she was wearing clothes that showed how sexy she is. I encouraged her to enjoy the attention of other men. I think this was a turning point. We played a few games with strangers. For example, we did the shoe shopping thing in short skirts and sometimes without panties. We had to visit New Orleans to find a store that still placed the shoes on the ladies feet, but we did it. +The shoe shopping was interesting. We did this a few times. We even tried it twice with the same guy on two separate occasions. He of course remembered her the first time so he took a few liberties by boldly looking up her skirt. He obviously enjoyed the visit more on the second occasion. I usually went in the store with her, but I would pretend not to be paying much attention. She would try to sit in front of a mirror whenever possible. She would wear a spaghetti strap mini dress that would barely cover her bottom when she sat down. The first few times she was still shy and would wear sexy panties. But after a few times of only showing her panties, she began to remove them for more of a rush. She was actually shaking a little the first time a guy strapped heels to her feet when she had on no panties. She chickened out at first from nervousness and tried to keep her legs together. Of course, her legs soon opened a little just to position her feet. Then I caught an excellent view of her smooth pussy and the thin strip up top. I could see up her dress in the mirror. Her facial expressions were priceless the whole time as so many thoughts raced through her little head. When we left the store she told me, ""That was CRAZY hot."" +She said the men would usually try to pretend that they weren't looking. She would look away at the shoes on her feet in a mirror so they could discreetly look up her dress. She also said the men usually would touch her legs and feet for no legitimate purpose. +One guy invited her to the back room of the store using the pretense that they had more shoes back there. She accepted but just for the purpose of giving him a better show. This was unplanned and I had wild thoughts going through my head. I knew he wanted her back there so he could try something with my wife. They were only gone about fifteen minutes, but it seemed forever. I was wondering what he was doing to my wife. I kept thinking is this it? Is she going to let him do it to her back there? Before they returned to the public part of the store, I had convinced myself that the salesman was doing it to my wife in the back room. I was not comfortable at all. I had butterflies in my stomach and a hard on at the same time. I wasn't mad at her, because I had lead her in to this. +She came out with new shoes on her feet; which we bought. I couldn't wait to get her out of that store and ask what happened. Turns out not much. I was thankful, because I wasn't ready. She said he did try though. She said he touched her very briefly. She told him she had to go but that she would be back shoe shopping again sometime. Tabi also admitted that it was extremely hot for her. It was the shere naughtiness that seemed to drive her mind wild. Later in our hotel room, we relived the experience in fantasy. Only in the fantasy version she allowed things to go further. +This was my first experience with all the mixed emotions. I was so jealous but extremely turned on. I kept wanting more as if I insisted on punishing myself. I kept looking for the next sexy game to play with her. +I found a swingers site on line and made a few friends. I honestly explained the situation. I told them that I didn't think my wife would do much, but that I would like them to flirt with her and try seducing her. I told them they could do what they wanted as long as it was alright with her. She knew nothing about this at the time. By the time I introduced her to my new friends, she simply thought they were simply friends of mine. A few guys I never introduced to her and several others I didn't want near her. +I would arrange to be out at the same places with her and my new friends. They sometimes danced with her. I would secretly encourage then to feel on her when they danced. I also encouraged her by somewhat joking suggesting that she flirt with them and let them play a little. By this time none of these suggestions came as a surprise to her due to our bedroom discussions during hot sex. On the other hand, Tabi wasn't ready to go very far with the play. She did loosen up some though and allowed the men to hold her close and feel her through her clothes. +I would always ask my friends how it went with her when I had a chance without her hearing. They knew I wanted to hear good stuff. I think they sometimes embellished a little for my benefit. They often said they held her next to them while dancing and that they felt her breast and butt through her dress. My friend Greg claimed he fingered her. She didn't admit to that, so I think he was wishing. Although later during sex, she played along and talked about Greg fingering her like it did happen. +Next, I began to inform different guys when I would be out of town. I travel pretty regular on business, so opportunities readily presented themselves. My friend Rick asked her to have lunch with him which she turned down while I was in town. Rick had decided that he was in for the long haul and planned to eventually seduce her in to bed with him. He and I made up a plan to get her out with him while I was gone. We told her that he was given two tickets to an event that I knew she would enjoy. The ticket dates were for days that I would be at sea. I encouraged her to go. To my surprise, she accepted. Then Rick and I had to buy the tickets for real. +She went, and they did have fun. Rick said he didn't push much but he did take her to dinner and drinks afterward. He was able to dance close with my wife and pursued his usual hands all over her tricks during the slow dances. He even kissed her on her cheek as he teased and flirted with her. Then Rick brought her home like a gentleman. A few days later he asked her to lunch. This time he accepted. They sent a few texts but kept their distance. Then the next day he took my wife to dinner for the second time. This was only two days before I was scheduled home. When he took her home, he asked if she wanted to finish their wine that they had left over from the restaurant. She accepted and invited him in to our house. They finished that bottle and opened another. +Yes, one thing lead to another. Rick spent the night with Tabi that night. My wife's innocence fell to Rick as she submitted her sexy little body and allowed his manhood inside her married little pussy. That was her first time with someone else. Rick slept with my wife in our house and in our bed. Neither of them told me until I figured it out weeks later. The next day was Sunday, so he slept with her that night too. I didn't know it but when I called her to pick me up Monday morning, Rick was fucking my wife. He had just finished in her before she left to come get me from the airport. Looking back I think it should have been obvious, but I wasn't suspecting nor expecting it. When I asked Rick about the date he just said they had fun. He did say that he took her to eat and that they danced closely and things like that but not that he seduced and screwed my wife. +Their date was on my mind the whole time, so I was horny when I got home. As usual, we talked about fantasy as we had sex as soon as we came through the door. I thought her extra wetness was just because our talk was turning her on. We talked about Rick and her. Tabi initially resisted much of the fantasy talk this time. I would often ask how sex was with someone else as foreplay and fantasy talk during sex. I thought this time was no different. Ironically, I asked her about sex with Rick. I thought she was just playing along as she actually told me some of what happened. She knew that I would think she only playing along. +As it turned out, I was making love to my wife only about a half hour after Rick had put some love in her. She was still freshly fucked from her hard fucking that he had just giving her. Rick had fucked my wife like she was some kind of a fuck toy. She still had his cum inside her. When I later found out details, I learned that he had fucked my little wife really hard. He was sweet and gentle the first time, but after that first time he used her body to the full extent of his pleasure. +I was only home a week before I was gone again. I knew they had texted a few times that week, but I was still convinced that she would never do anything more than flirt and play a little. When I returned this time I was a day earlier than planned. This time she was really late picking me up even though I called her when I landed as usual. I had my bag and was at the curb when she drove up. +She looked a mess. Hair everywhere. Her clothes just didn't look right. She had on a little wrap skirt that wasn't wrapped on her little body quite right. She was barefoot. She had her Birkenstocks with her, but she had them off to drive. There was not a stich of makeup. +I got her in the house and began kissing her. She mentioned that she should take a shower. I knew then that something was different. As I persisted, she gave in to my sexual advances. When I got my finger inside her panties, I knew this time that she had been fucked. She was sticky between her legs and it was all in her panties. I didn't say anything at first. I was a little angry. I pulled back the covers to the bed she had just been in and placed her on her back. I pulled her panties to the side with my left hand and grabbed her ankle with my right to hold her feet open. I jammed my dick in her balls deep and fucked her hard as I could for a few strokes. She knew at that point that I knew what she had done. I then turned her over and pulled her panties down to her thighs. I got on her and fucked her face down. She bent her knees with the bottom of her feet facing up. I could see her little toes curled as I slammed in to my wife's messy little pussy. +I asked, ""Did he fuck you like this?"" +She immediately confessed. ""Yea,"" she answered. +When she said that, I unloaded and shot probably my largest load ever of cum into her shared little pussy. +I somehow knew that her pussy was no longer only mine. This time we talked about it after sex. I could now tell that she wasn't just playing along when she confessed to letting Rick fuck her. She cried at first and apologized swearing that she would never do it again if I didn't want her to. She claimed that she was scared to tell me. Tabi swore that she didn't plan to do it with Rick. She said it kind of just happened. Then once she had done it she did it again. She even said that she kind of hoped that she would be caught, because she didn't know how she could tell me. +I kept making her tell me more, which she did with shyness. She continued to explain that she didn't intend for it to happen the first time. I knew I had to accept responsibility for this, so I tried to set her at ease. My emotions were nuts. My stomach was in knots. I also wanted to make love to my wife. +I asked her if she liked it and if she thought she wanted to do it again. She said only if it was okay with me she might do it again. She admitted that she liked the sex. +Without too many details on the rest of that conversation, I came to the conclusion that she had explored her sexuality and she liked the freedom. Rick apologized for not being honest. He told me his side of the story, which was similar to hers. He also continued to fuck my young little wife when I went out of town. Soon, he would do her even when I was home. +A few of my friends have since fucked my little Tabi now. It's not often but she likes the freedom when it's what she is in the mood for. She isn't any more slutty than she was before from appearance. She acts like a perfect lady until she is in the bedroom. Her style of ""Hot Wife"" or ""Slut Wife"" is more of a cheating wife with permission. She prefers that it happen naturally. She has always been honest after she cheated and admitted to it along with many details. It was months before she was comfortable with me knowing while it happened. She still is more comfortable with privacy, but she has allowed me to catch her. Just like from the beginning she has become a little more bold in time. +This is working out for us so far. We are very open and honest as we discuss it. She tells me what she likes and doesn't like, and so do I. Of course, being safe is imperative. Only a few times she has gone on dates with me in town although I occasionally encourage it. Since I know all about Rick, he has visited her while I'm home a few times. They only go so far in front of me, But I find it extremely erotic to see my wife passionately kissed and for him to love on her in front of me with his hands. Rick takes a dominate roll over her making her submissive to him. Tabi is embarrassed in front of me, but he kind of pushes her to let me see some things. For example, he made her show her panties to him in front of me. When things advance, she begs him to take her out of the room. A threesome was a long time coming although I had my turn with her after he finished in her in our room with the door closed. She still isn't comfortable with me watching. I try to give her the privacy she wants so she can be free to enjoy her sex. +From what I have read, this is nothing like the average shared wife arrangement. However, I suspect that in reality each situation is unique in some way. There are Hot Wives, Swingers, Cheating Wives, and Cheating Wives who have permission. The point is that if you want this to happen for your wife, you must be prepared and flexible. It should not only be about you. It must also be about her. +Also, you should expect a few embarrassing moments. When she decided that she should be on birth control, she went to our own doctor who knows that I have had a vasectomy. He looked at her funny and was noticeably uncomfortable. He even mentioned that he thought I was fixed. He knows us pretty well. He and his wife are our friends. I guess she should have been more discreet with that one, but we thought her regular doctor should know she is on birth control. There have been other interesting moments as well. +If this is for you, enjoy the journey. Let your wife be sexy first. Play games with the two of you. This will be fun regardless of where it leads." +571,How We (WillDevo) Write.,WillDevo,How To,2021-02-09,2021-02-09,2022-01-04 08:35:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-we-willdevo-write,An essay to describe our process.,['Writing Processs'],4.55,"(Update submitted 8/13/2021) +Devo and I wrote this to offer insight into our own experience here on Lit, in case other future writers might want to publish their own ideas. There's tons of similar threads on the Lit forums, but we wanted to submit this to the main site in case other writers are interested. +First, it's probably important to state that we don't delete readers' comments just because they're negative. We will for specific reasons, such as those with spoilers, or those that have questions or suggestions that we took into account in a later revision. In that case, the comment would not longer make sense. +There are a few ""mechanical"" items to be aware of as to how the Literotica ecosystem seems to function. +When a story is published by an author, it sits in a queue until a moderator approves it for publication. Sometimes, a submission is returned to the author if a problem needs to be addressed. For us, that's been a very rare occurrence. The process can take from days to weeks. It appears that the different categories must have different moderators, because we've had one of our submissions sit in ""Pending"" status in the ""Non-Erotic"" category for weeks, while a story entered into the ""Romance"" category was published after only a few days. We're not complaining, we're just advising. +Second, if you ""Favorite"" an author, you'll receive a notification on your ""My Home"" page when they publish something new. You won't get a notification, though, if an edited version has been published. You _do_ receive a notification, though, if an author you favorite makes an update to their biography page. For that reason, we make notes in that section when an edited submission is published so readers can decide if they want to check it out. +When people send us feedback about issues or errors or whatnot, if they're significant enough, we'll make immediate corrections and submit a revision. The problem, though, is that edited submissions often take substantially longer than original submissions to be published. It's a bit frustrating that it can take more than a week to fix mistakes. We both wish Lit made it easier to edit works in place instead of having to go through the whole submission workflow, but we also understand they have this process because it'd be easy for authors to duck a non-existent system of checks and balances. +Given the above, here's how we prepare and submit our contributions. Our process may be a little convoluted, but it works for us. +We write in LibreOffice Writer. We use its native file format, but we write in plain text without formatting or styles. Though we write with them, Literotica doesn't indent paragraphs. Literotica also double-spaces paragraphs, even if you don't. +Lately, we've been including enhanced formatting. If we want text to be **bold,** _italicized,_ underlined, or whatever, we don't use the word processor's formatting or style buttons to do it, we use HTML tags. Same with the horizontal lines. One can even add emojis! '👍' +You can bold text with < b > before **the text** and follow the bolded text with a < / b >. +Same thing for underlines with < u > and < / u > and _italics_ using < i > and < / i >. +Those tags are depicted with spaces so that they're not interpreted literally when this guide is published. Just remove the spaces between the less-than and greater-than symbols. +There's even more you can do. +You can +center text +with < center > and < / center > +. . . or add a horizontal line (officially known as a ""horizontal rule"") such as this: +* * * +with < hr >. An ending < / hr> isn't needed. +An author can even employ the emdash:— and endash:– with the code & mdash ; or & ndash ; without spaces between the ampersand and semicolon in both cases. +Emojis, like this: 💩, are written in the text as & # 128169 ; (again without any spaces between the ampersand and semicolon). There are a number of online references which list the codepoints. Do note, though, that the display of emojis depends on the reader's browser or device. A thumbs-up will always be a thumbs-up, but the styling of it will vary between operating systems. And, though they are widely adopted by now, there's no guarantee they'll be displayed at all. +You might be asking why we don't use a feature-rich word processor like Word, which Lit accepts as an import document type. +For us, it's simple. At least as far as we know, one can't preview the contents when importing a document type of any sort other than text. That means one can't see what it'll look like before it's published for the world to see. We don't like that, because we catch a number of errors and issues during a preview. If we're wrong about this, _please_ let us know via feedback or a comment. +After as much editing and proofreading as we can stand, we ""Save As..."" the file into plain text (.txt), and cut-and-paste it into the Story Text box in the submission page. We then carefully read it again, watching specifically for formatting errors. +That's the basic mechanics of our workflow. +* * * +(See? There's a horizontal rule right there.) +We'll begin with our advice. +First, write what **you** want to write. Write what **you'd** like to read. Don't try to write what you think **others** want to read, because that's a futile chase. If you write what you like, you will find similarly-minded readers that will be loyal to you. Large group or small, it doesn't matter. Your goal should be providing for people that want _you_ to provide for _them._ +Second, if you're not a native English speaker (European, North American, Australian, whatever), and plan to publish in the English language, our suggestion is that you state it in your foreword. You'll be given mercy if you simply note, ""English isn't my native tongue. Please give me/us latitude."" or something like that. We've read some incredibly good stories by authors for whom English isn't their native language, and simply knowing the limitation made it easier to overlook mistakes . . . to a point. +Third, do your homework. Dawn and I do tons of research when we're stepping into territory with which we're not familiar. +By the way, the words (and the grammatical phrasing) of the previous sentence were chosen to highlight the difference between _familiar_ and _formal_ writing. You should feel free to use both. We've received scathing commentary criticizing one or the other as improper. +That sentence could have been more _familiarly_ written as, ""Dawn and I do tons of research when we're stepping into territory we're not familiar with."" Subtle change, subtle difference. The first is formal, the second is familiar by letting the sentence end with a preposition. Though there's no hard and fast rule, there is a ""sense"" to how various sentence structures are interpreted. +If English is your first language, do your absolute best to avoid punctuation and grammar issues. Proper punctuation is _critical_ , especially in dialogue. There are numerous style guides in the public domain, and quite a few on the Literotica forums. Hell. Devo and I now own a copy of The Chicago Manual of Style, 17th edition. It's a $30 book of 1,100-plus pages and an incredibly helpful resource. +Fourth, if your story is fantastic, the three items above won't matter so much. The ""meat"" comes first and foremost (easy, vegans, it's only an analogy). Focus on that first. +* * * +On the subject of editors. +If item two above is elusive to you, sure, employ an editor. +We'd never done so before I published A Butterscotch Sky. (Dawn wasn't involved in that particular one because she's not a fan of Sci-Fi.) +Why? Because we are methodical and very, _very_ tedious reviewing our work before submission. +So why do our works still have errors? Because we are human. I'm damned sure there are errors in this very Howw-To. (See? Just playing, but there are probably others that weren't intentional.) +A good editor absolutely cannot _read_ your story. They should only _look_ at the words, dots, crosses, and hyphens. +The worst editor in the world is one that enjoys what you've written, because they began to read and enjoy instead of doing their job. The best editor in the world is one that has only a vague memory of your story after they've done their job. +We've read quite a few stories where the author (rightfully and correctly) gave credit to his or her proofreader and editor, yet we still see errors. +I'll say it again. We're all human, we all make mistakes, and we all sometimes fail to see them. Do your absolute best, cut yourself some slack, correct the errors you see when your work is published (because you _will_ see more), and submit occasional revisions. +There's also a bit of a paradox. The better your grammar and spelling, the more obvious the infrequent errors become to the readers. +* * * +""Okay, well, how much sexy-sex stuff?"" +That is entirely up to you as the author. Again, point number one. Write what you'd like to read. +We have high marks with ""gonzo"" stuff, like a good chunk of It Only Took Twenty Years, and equally high marks for stories that contain very little explicit content, such as A Walk Changed Everything. +The _story_ comes first, ""between the sheets"" stuff comes last, unless, that is, the explicit stuff is your choice of focus. +* * * +Next up: Names. _Proper_ names. +A number of our characters are named after people we know, but they're never both their given name and surname. One or the other, but never both. Naming characters can be a challenge, and an author should give careful deliberation to it. +With a minor character, we'll often use a random name generator such as the one at behindthename.com. We'll often go through multiple iterations until we find a name which ""fits"" the character. It's a matter of preference, and don't be afraid to rename a character if it becomes more-developed and the name you previously chose no longer seems fitting. +We keep a list of every character's name from every story we've written so that we don't accidentally re-use a name. Yes, there are a few cases where a name has been re-used, but the characters are so completely different, we didn't feel a need to go change things. Or (potential spoiler alert), we intend to cross the character over into another story arc at some point in the future. +* * * +Dawn (a/k/a _Devo)_ is certainly my better half. Of course, both of those names are pseudonyms, as is ""Will."" They were the names given to the two protagonists of our first published story, It Only Took Twenty Years. Though that story suggested we didn't marry until we were in our forties, that's part of the delicious fiction. She and I have been married as of 2021 for more than twenty-five years. She's my partner in _every_ sense of the word. Every ounce of the devotion, attraction, and adoration we write about is absolutely _real_ to us both. +Forget the fact that ""Twenty Years"" appears later by publishing date. That happened because we condensed it into fewer sections. That required a deletion and re-submission which changed the date. ""Twenty Years"" was published in September of 2019. +It was our first attempt at writing, spurred by a fit of boredom. I (Will) sat down with my iPad and just started writing. And writing. And writing. Some of it was even written while relaxing on a beach in the Caribbean. It took me about two or three months to get it all on ""paper"" and another month or so of editing. Dawn revised an added to it. +We were astonished that the first chapter scored the ""Hot"" marker its very first day, as did each following chapter. We believed the story was entertaining, but, quite frankly, I didn't think of myself as a good ""technical"" writer. Now, mind you, the first time we submitted it, it was over twenty chapters posted separately. I was a greenhorn Lit contributor and didn't know any better. I deleted then re-submitted the whole tale as six ""Parts,"" which made it a more manageable read. +My wife and I typically write in short paragraphs, which lands about 3000 words on one Literotica page. Keep that in mind, because very high page counts might discourage some readers from even beginning to read your story. If you're going to write an epic, try to create your first chapter with the pure intent of grabbing the reader's attention, and leave them wanting more so they'll continue reading your additional chapters. +Try to end your first (and every) chapter leaving the reader anxious for the next. Even if you submit your entire multi-chapter opus in a single day, the moderators will space the publication dates between chapters by a day (usually). Use that to your advantage. +If you've read our works, you'll see we're big fans of cliffhangers. It's suited us well, as evidenced by quite a few entertaining comments. +We violated this rule with our 24,000 word story, ""A Walk Changed Everything,"" which we submitted as a single long entry. We already had quite a few readers following us, and figured they'd not be put off by a relatively large single- chapter tale. +* * * +The ratings of the chapters of our second tale, The Perils of Love, ranged from 4.62 to 4.84. The lowest score is the first chapter. +We expected that. +We intentionally began the story a little ""dry,"" a little ""obscure,"" a little ""weak,"" and a little ""thoughtful."" It was all about setting the stage and building the characters. +The ratings for chapter six is the next lowest. It was an experiment. It was difficult to write. We wanted to bump our shoulders into the fine line of infidelity in the Romance category (as opposed to 'Loving Wives' where it's a total trope), the loss of connection with a spouse (the whole point of the story), and the temptation that can arise as a result. +The final chapter was published the next day. It was the ""Happily Ever After,"" plus some uncomfortable masculine weakness and holds a tie for the second highest score of the chapters. The highest scored chapter related how the central characters dealt with an unspeakable shared tragedy together. +We also leaned into ""old man"" issues, too. It's okay to write about fear, uncertainty, and doubt, also known as ""FUD."" It is _certainly_ okay to include those real facts of life. It's also fun to do it humorously; at least, that's what we aimed for. +* * * +Our next story, The Card Game, has been our wildest ride in terms of its wildly-oscillating rating. That tale came purely from the fun of writing. Dawn and I didn't give a crap, we just played together. +The indication of the ""rating wave"" was that it is one of the few ""Love it"" or ""Hate it"" stories we've written, because only extremes in scores can make the average vary so much. It's settled down, though, as the number of votes makes the average more stable. It was a fantasy I dreamed up when Devo was called out of town to speak at a charitable event. I stitched the idea into the ""Twenty Years"" arc. +* * * +Next up is When Ordinary Isn't. +That tale was my wife's creation. I encouraged her to ""go nuts."" Funnily enough, the filename in LibreOffice Writer (which is the word processor we use) began as ""Bizzare.odt"" because the premise was based on the male protagonist observing the female protagonist . . . well, it . . . Okay, read it, then you'll know. +Six of the seven chapters were in the all-time top-rated 250 stories in the Romance category for months, and two still are as of 7/24/2021. Chapters from several of our other stories are there, too. +* * * +Next came It Only Took a Second. +This was the first tale we wrote when the COVID ""lockdown"" began. +The date for When Ordinary Isn't contradicts that, but that date was when it was published. Devo had completed it already, and I was editing, then it took a few days for it all to come online. +With this story, we made a mistake. +We submitted it into the ""Loving Wives"" category, completely misunderstanding the intent of the genre. We thought it meant, ""Wives that love their husbands,"" or ""Men loving their wives."" +No. It means ""Men loving _other_ men's wives."" Definitely not our cup of tea. +Anyway, a crazy thing happened. +It was read ten times more on the day it went active than any other story we'd written, and also received ten times more ratings and comments. It quickly rose into the hit lists for that category's rankings. Dawn's pretty sure it was at the of the top 10 of the ""30 day"" list within a week. +What that implied to us is that there are far, _far_ more readers (or, at least, reviewers and raters) of that category than the Romance genre. The comments we received were simply awesome, but we resubmitted it into the Romance category. +We thank the LW readers, but . . . sorry, we pulled the rug out, even after tens of thousands of reads and thousands of high ratings. Dawn and I are certain many readers of that genre agree the category is misnamed, or the deliberate readers actually do appreciate the ""mis""-categorized romance story with a Happily Ever After ending between truly faithful spouses. +We named it similarly to It Only Took Twenty Years for two reasons. +""Twenty Years"" comes in at a little over 85,000 words. That's close to the size of a typical mass-market paperback at about 300 pages. +""a Second"" comes in at just shy of 14,000 words. +So, yeah. Its name was a hint to its size as well as its plot. The premise of that story came when I read an article in the news as I prepared to start my workday at home. I finished the draft in less than eight hours. By contrast, it took probably a hundred hours to write ""Twenty Years"". + _That's_ how quick the idea poured out into words. Sometimes it happens like that. +I spent the day in Zoom meetings where, during a particularly boring one, I conceived the backgrounds of the characters, structured the plot, and jotted an outline on the home PC. When the workday was over, I started writing. I didn't stop until almost 2:00am. +When Dawn read the draft and began tearing up at the point where Steven was in his hotel room by himself after seeing his wife in the hospital, I knew I had written something imaginable and somewhat powerful. If you've read the story, you certainly understand the _actual_ meaning behind the title. +Of everything we've done, I think that story is the one I take pride in the most because it forced me to delve into dark spaces to consider what my feelings would be if I had to live the fiction I was writing. +* * * +Quarantined After Twenty-six Years? came next. +It continued the lives of the characters of ""The Perils."" It was a contest entry, and it was just too rushed in an effort to meet the deadline. It was fun to write, I just think we didn't spend the time we usually do to polish it and keep it ""fresh."" +The ""Romance"" entrant from Bebop3, Unseen Love absolutely and positively deserved the trophy. It's an _incredibly_ good story. +* * * +We began writing The Flight Before Christmas before the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. We intended to submit it as the winter holiday contest entry, but decided against it because the tale came in at almost 31,000 words, too large for a contest story. As its intro indicates, it was the product of a disturbing dream. +This tale has been remarkably well-received. +We later decided to stitch the story together with A Walk Changed Everything and edited it so they'd fit together more seamlessly. +Crossovers between stories can be very well received; just make sure you inform your readers if there's a particular order various stories should be read. We try to do that both in a story's foreword, as well as our Biography page. That way, followers get notice in their dashboard, and non-followers are also appropriately advised. +* * * +A Walk Changed Everything was the next tale we wrote together. +We gave specific information at the beginning warning readers that it might be a difficult journey, because we wrote the story non-linearly. It was an experiment in thinking outside of the box, and we're proud of it. +To the people that criticized it because of its non-chronological track: Didn't you read the foreword? Giving ""1*"" because you didn't like the format, even though you were advised of it at the very beginning, is poor form. That's all I'll say about that. +* * * +A Rose Can Be Too Sweet +Yeah. Just like every human on the planet, we're completely exhausted with the pandemic, and wanted to write a ""forward-looking"" story, aiming into a not- yet-realized future where things turn out well for a pair of young adults whose lives had been disrupted, but for reasons unlike what most readers might expect. We also injected a touch more of the unexpected at the very end after which came from very specific research. There's more about that in the comments. +* * * +The Future is in the Air +This story is the first Reader's Choice Award we've received, which is a bit ironic considering Dawn started writing this story way, _way_ before ""The Flight Before Christmas,"" but then hit a bit of ""writer's block."" It's primarily her own work, but I added in a lot of the aviation-related detail. She put it on the back burner, and it stayed there until after ""A Walk Changed Everything."" +She finished the story when I asked her, ""What if she died?"" +If you've read the story, you know what happened at the end of Chapter Three. +Its final chapter's score of 4.91 (as of 7/24/2021) is the highest of all our entries. +What's also crazy is that the first and last chapters have been read over fifteen thousand times, but the middle two less than half that. Apparently lots of readers skipped to the end! +The story, another crossover, was stitched into When Ordinary Isn't. +* * * +""Look the other Way"" +We spent the least amount of time writing this one. The idea came from a comment on The Card Game. We had fun writing it. +* * * +We Did a Good Thing +This story, yet _another_ crossover, continues after ""The Flight Before Christmas,"" and knits it with A Walk Changed Everything. +Both of us like the idea that the world is a small one, and connections from a distance are always possible. A number of our stories are based on such a premise, because, with advancing age, the world only seems to get smaller and smaller. +* * * +A Frigid Mother +This was our first ""Non-Erotic"" entry. Though there are some sweet, tender moments between spouses, they are minimal. A movie made from this story wouldn't even warrant a PG13 rating here in the US except, perhaps, for language. We began writing it on 2/16/2021 shortly after a disastrous winter storm overtook the Great State of Texas, plunging it into the dark ages. +It was written as a frustrated vent, and (other than people's names and residences) is completely factual. We told it from the perspective of the fictional ""Twenty Years"" characters since those characters are fictionally situated in the area. +* * * +A Butterscotch Sky +As of the 08/2021 revision of this essay, that's our latest submission. +I'd read a few stories from authors that'd left me particularly encouraging comments, and several of their contributions were in the Science Fiction category. I've typically eschewed that category (like Loving Wives) because I don't like imagining sex with artificially intelligent androids, monsters, aliens, or basically anything like non-human or a human with strange mutations. Just not my cup of tea. Anyway, two authors had really good ratings, and a foreword on two of their contributions gave a good-enough overview and ""insurance policy"" that the stories wouldn't bug me. +I read them. I liked them. Actually, I read like seven of them in a row over the span of a couple of weeks because I really, _really_ liked them. +I've always been a fan of hard science fiction which is described as a subgenre of the genre which focuses on scientific accuracy and logical reasoning. As such, after reading those stories which fit perfectly into that subgenre, I thought to myself, ""I can do that!"" +Aside, perhaps, from A Walk Changed Everything, I spent more time writing an outline for this story than I ever had for any of my others before putting pen to paper. The reason was the same: The chronology was critical, and I needed to ensure it all aligned. In fact, I spent so much time researching astronomical time itself, that the first few pages of the story are purely about exactly that: _time._ +As many of our readers will attest, we love to throw in surprises, twists, turns, and cliffhangers to keep the readers' interest. This story was no different. +When I gave Devo a rundown on the plot of ""our"" next work, she said, ""I'm out."" +She's not nearly the fan of Sci-Fi as I. +I also did something I seldom ever do: I submitted each chapter once it was completed. I sort of regret that choice, because things ""broke."" I was forced into corners because the story had already begun. It was all polished up in a following revision, but there were goofs and gaffs for several months. +Another problem was that my day job suddenly became intensely busy which forced me away from the keyboard for weeks at a time. That meant there were probably some frustrated readers that gave up on waiting for continuations. +So, the advice from that: If you're constructing a multi-chapter work, wait. Just _wait_. Wait to publish it until it's completed. And by completed, I mean wait even a few weeks after you've tittled the last jot. Let your brain settle, and maybe even begin work on your next tale to clear your mind of the one you just finished. Then go back and re-read it, and fix those things you hadn't realized were annoying you. Our latest revision to this story tied up loose threads I'd overlooked before. +Once you've done that, submit the chapters at a pace you wish readers to consume them. +* * * + _You've got an idea. Start writing. Just write! You might surprise yourself with the results!_ + _We'll continue to update this write-up if readers continue to express interest. We hope this helps other writers!_ + _As I wrote above, ""Favorite"" WillDevo if you want to be notified on your dashboard when we update things (like this document) and publish new tales!_" +572,How You Can Get Free Stuff,BOSTONFICTIONWRITER,How To,2008-05-02,2008-05-02,2022-01-04 08:35:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/how-you-can-get-free-stuff,Get free stuff just by writing and sending an e-mail.,"['Customer', 'Customer Service', 'Cyber Friend', 'Internet', 'Online', 'Pool Table', 'Sales Order', 'Web Site']",3.5,"There is lots of free stuff that you can get by just writing and sending an e-mail, if you know how to word it. It's fun, it's easy, and anyone can do it. Besides, you never know when you will connect with someone and what they will send you. +Ingredients: Personal Computer, Internet connection, E-mail address, credit card, writing ability, creativity, a sincere fondness for people, an almost psychic intuitiveness and awareness of what people are thinking and/or going through, a quick wit, and a wicked good sense of humor. +As there are many people in life who are lonely, bored, and unrecognized; there are many hard working people in business who are lonely, bored, and unrecognized. For the purpose of this story and to receive free stuff, we must focus on the group who work as customer service representatives and try to find those who are lonely, bored, and unrecognized. They are the ones who have the power to send you free stuff. +Pretty much it's the luck of the draw, but if you are as I am, someone who buys lots of stuff online, you're bound to find a few receptive CSR's. Now, you have the perfect scenario to getting free stuff. Do you see where I'm going with this? +My hat is off to all you customer service representatives. I don't know how you do it. I don't know how you can work with humanity day in and day out and still maintain your temper and professionalism. +Because I love to write and write at every opportunity, I discovered that I was able to capture the attention of the customer service personnel with a witty response, along with a bit of insight to the misery that is their life and my reasons for buying their product, of course. Now, just as I have experienced customer service representatives who love their jobs, who love their lives, and who do not have the psychological issues necessary to send me free stuff, there are so many customer service representatives who hate their jobs, are unhappy with their lives, and who are a bit crazy to be sending me all these free things when if discovered, they could lose this job, albeit as horrible a job it is. +In their gratitude for breaking up their otherwise lackluster day and entertaining them, these unhappy, albeit a bit crazy, customer service representatives send me freebies with my order all the time. When I receive my order it is like opening a surprise box at Christmas time. I never know what I'll get for free and am always surprised when I do receive free stuff. +It all began when I stopped going to malls and started buying everything online. I mean, c'mon, other than germs that gave you that nasty cold or a free upskirt of a hottie's bikini panties as she ascended an escalator while wearing a short skirt or a down blouse of a nipple while a cute woman browsed the jewelry counter, when was the last time you received anything for free at the mall? +Precisely, the point I'm making. You've never received anything for free by spending your time and money at the mall. You need to get yourself online, my friend. You need to get some free stuff. +I discovered that every time I ordered something online, I received a notice from a customer service representative. There in my e-mail box, as soon as I ordered my merchandise, was an acknowledgement from the customer service department. Yes, I know what you are thinking, that many times those acknowledgements are computer generated. So? +Look above or below on their home page and there is...your contact us link to free stuff. Now, that you have ordered something, now that you have an order number, now that you exist in their computer as a customer, you can avail yourself of their customer service department and, more importantly, their customer service personnel. +Now, you can write your letter to a live person, get her name, and continue your stalking, I mean, witty repartee until, from out of exasperation, I mean, good customer service, they send you something for free just to get rid of you, er, to keep you as a happy customer. Time and again, customer service representatives have rewarded me with freebies for entertaining them and reinforced our cyber friendship with a free gift, a token, if you will, for their appreciation of helping them through their day. +For this scam, I mean, plan to work, it doesn't make a difference if the company is large or small. Larger companies, of course, will send you better free stuff. So far I've received a keyboard, a mouse, a laptop computer valued at $2,000, a Jacque Lemans watch valued at $3,000, as well as numerous smaller trinkets from baseball caps to t-shirts to $25, $50, and $100 gift certificates good towards my next purchase of their products to a dog collar and leash and dog toys all for free. +I always take the opportunity to respond back to my computer generated sales acknowledgment with a comment regarding the product. Because much of what I write is funny or meant to be humorous, my e-mail is usually well received by a bored customer service representative, who sometimes is the owner of the company. More often than not, they'd respond back and once responded, I knew I had a sucker, I mean a fish on my line, sorry, a cyber friend online. +Fortunately, for the purpose of this story and to my personal benefit, many of the customer service people who I happen across are women around my age and that makes my job in trying to convince them to send me free stuff so much easier to do. Because they are women around my age, because we are on the same page socially, economically, spiritually, and emotionally, we connect. That connection is what reels in all the free stuff, which is where the psychic intuitiveness and awareness of what people are thinking and/or going through, quick wit, and wicked good sense of humor come in handy. +Just as it is important for you to have a good sense of humor, it is as equally important that the CSR who you are trying to work has a good sense of humor, as well. Otherwise, if she or he doesn't get your humor, your attempt to snag the free goods will fail. +Imagine for a moment that you are sitting in a cubicle all day with a computer and a telephone plugged in your head. Unless you are making millions of dollars as a commodities trader, instead of making an impossible to get by on $8-14 an hour, that's depressing. There they are the army of customer service representatives corresponding with customers via e-mails or talking to them on the telephone. +""Can you see them? They are bored, unhappy, and angry after a flurry of disgruntled customers makes them hate their jobs."" +Their job, their sole purpose in the business world, their main responsibility for their company, and the thing that gives them a small amount of job satisfaction is in helping you and in giving you, the ungrateful, mean, nasty, dissatisfied and unhappy customer some customer service. +Now, are you ready to read the secret to succeed in getting free stuff from CSR's? Get closer to the screen so that not everyone hears the secret. +Most customers suck. Most customers are hostile. Too many customers take enjoyment in beating down customer service people. For them to call customer service and act so horribly as they do there is something not only wrong with their merchandise order but also there is something serious wrong in their not so perfect little life. +They are upset and annoyed that there is one more thing wrong in their miserable lives and now they must take the time to call you, the poor customer service representative who is paid crap to listen to their crap. Because of the misery that the customer faces in his sad existence, it is the role of a customer to make you, the customer service representative, as miserable as they are. It's logical, but in a twisted way. +They are looking for someone to vent their frustration and there you are on the other end of the line availing yourself to their verbal or written vomit. Seldom do they contact customer service to tell them that they love life, are as happy as a clam, and love their new RDX260 with the super accessories. All these CSR people hear are complaint after complaint and they've heard it all over and again. You can't say a swear word that they haven't head a thousand times a day and have hung up on a caller for swearing at them. +What satisfaction do these CSR's receive out of that job? The customer is gone within a few minutes of their contact leaving the CSR in an upset state. They seldom know if they helped that person or not. Moreover, there's no one there to pat them on the back and to tell them that they did or are doing a good job. +Note: This is key and worthy information to memorize. Helping customers is a thankless job, which would explain why so many customer service representatives are hungry for a compliment and react so favorably to someone who is nice to them, specifically someone who sends them funny e-mails, and someone who understands their miserable job and unfortunate plight in life. Because of the guff that they must endure, they are ripe for someone as solicitous as I am in my e-mails to them. This is where I step in and entertain the customer service people with a funny e-mail. They are so hungry for some sweet talk that they will give me the store just to continue receiving my funny e-mails. +I thank them for the product. I tell them how much I love it. I tell them that I plan on telling all my friends and family to buy this product, too. I expand by describing some of my friends and family members and go into depth why they could use such a product. Within the e-mail, I give them images of how I plan to use the product or how difficult my life was before I purchased their product and/or how better my life is since I bought their product. The more ridiculously funny are the e-mails, the more of a chance of a CSR taking it upon them to send me a little something extra with my order. +When you can write an e-mail that the CSR takes and shows to her boss and her boss shows it to her boss, you are golden, you've got it made. Unofficially, you have been officially authorized to receive free stuff. Oh, yeah, baby, you are on your way to living the good life for free. +Now, they look forward to reading more of your e-mails. Now, they even write back to you hoping that you will respond with another funny e-mail. You are helping them make it through their day and they are very appreciative of you for that, so appreciative that they will reward you with free stuff. +Probably, because I'm a man, these customer service women are more receptive to me, whereas, if I were a woman trying my plan, she'd no doubt, do better contacting a man than a woman. Only, fortunately for me, the majority of customer service representatives that I have come in contact with have been women. +Now, combine boredom with not being appreciated and after working in such a horrible job with a company that really doesn't care about you, these CSR's want to get back at their company big time. Then, add the spice of not being sexually fulfilled, which with the advent of menopause happens to too many women who are forty and fifty something, this is the beginning of how the plan fruitfully unfolds. +Some of these CSR's may be single moms or married to a man who doesn't appreciate them or a man who doesn't have a job and/or who drinks. Some of these women may be going through something that is exacerbated by the abuse they suffer in dealing with unhappy customers eight hours a day that conversely manifests to wanting to give you special attention because you made their day with your witty e-mail. Now, you are in the right place at the right time. +It's never a good situation if you have stress at home and on your job, too. You need to have peace somewhere. You need to have one place that you look forward to going to recoup your energy and recharge your spirit. Now, if you as a customer and as a writer can give them some peace along with a bit of humor, they will reward you generously for the time you took to write all those e-mails that helped them make it through their horrid days. +By taking the time to give these CSR's a few moments of attention, happiness, and laughter, it is their misery turned around to giddy happiness that works for you in getting free stuff from companies who employ abused and unappreciated customer service representatives. Think of it when writing thoughtful, attentive, and funny e-mails to customer service representatives that you are spreading good mental health to people who may really need it. Think of yourself as a psychiatrist. +I imagine many of these customer service women are stuck in bad marriages, which considering the divorce rate, wouldn't be a stretch to imagine. They are vulnerable to your kind words and humor. They are dying for some attention, especially from a man. +Guys suck and instead of appreciating the older, fuller figured, and aged to perfection women who they have at home and who have given them years of devoted love, loyalty, and affection, they reject them for the young, skinny, and dimwitted woman that they see on television, in the movies, in the celebrity magazines, and/or at the mall. These are the same women who reject these older men because they are fat, bald, and forty and fifty something. +Now that you know this about some customer service women, use this knowledge to your advantage and to your benefit to get free stuff. Only, it works better if you are sincere about it, as I am. Women can smell a bad man and insincerity (actually some women love bad boys, but that's another story for another time) a mile away. +It is my good fortune that, in fact, I prefer women my age and women who look like real women and not Barbie dolls with fake tits, fake smiles, and fake personalities. Give me a chubby, smart, fifty-year-old to a skinny, dumb, young woman any day. I'd rather have character to fluff and feel curves to bones. Give me backbone to lip gloss, personality to moodiness, and sense of humor to sense of style. +Let's us all bow our heads and have a moment of silence before bonding and commiserating with customer service representatives, so that we all can get our own free stuff. +Take a big breath and relax as you let it out and again. Breathe in and breathe out. Feel your victim, I mean, feel the spirit of the customer service representative, and imagine and visualize her giving you free stuff.

Heck, unless you have a really sensitive partner, it can be crap even when you are with someone. Honestly, I have had one truly special Valentine's Day in my life...with my first ex-husband. He sent flowers to my work, had my mom watch the children while we went to a special dinner AND dancing at this restaurant with champagne and everything. Don't get too excited that was ONCE in fourteen years...at the end when he was trying to save the marriage. So basically...this is a day that is disappointing for most people. +Last year was the first time in four years that I had a partner. So although I did not have lots of money...or him either, I wanted to do something special. Now I am not much of a poet, but I can appreciate the beauty of them. One of my favorite poems is ""How Do I Love Thee"" by Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Like I said, I suck at writing poetry and there was no way I was going to butcher such a magnificent piece with my feeble attempts. But I did allow that poem to inspire me...one line says ""How do I love thee? Let me count the ways."" So that is what I did. I wrote two-thousand words, seven pages extolling this man's good qualities. And he did have them. +The thing is that is how our minds work when we are in a relationship. We focus upon that person's good qualities and too often ignore those niggling things...until we cannot anymore. Yet for most of us, when we look in the mirror, whether that be a physical one as we step from the shower naked or the mirror of our mind/soul, we judge ourselves much harsher than we do anyone else. When we look at ourselves, we first see everything that is wrong with us...and none of the amazing stuff that makes us special. +So this year...when I am once more alone on Valentine's Day, I am not going to ignore this day, pretend it just does not exist. I am not going to bitch and complain about not having someone. I am going to focus upon doing what I have promised on my goals wall for this year...""learning to love myself, it is the greatest love of all."" So this year, for Valentine's Day, I am giving myself that same present which I gave him last year...a love letter...How Do I Love **ME**. It will be just as long. Just as eloquent. And for the purposes of this exercise, I will ignore all those little niggling voices...just like I did with him. +I am going to look into the windows of my heart, mind and soul and focus upon everything that is so amazing about me. I am going to stand in front of the mirror in my bathroom...naked without any make-up and find positive things to say about my body. I am going to dress up and look in that mirror once again...and find even more positives to say about myself. I am going to celebrate me as no man ever has...or probably ever will. Because I honestly do believe that until you love yourself, no one else ever can/will. +I challenge you all...single, married, in a relationship, it don't matter...to join me on this exercise. It does not have to be two-thousand words the way mine will be. I choose that seemingly arbitrary number because I felt I deserved as much time and effort as I put into his last year. Just put pen to paper or fingers to key board. But take the time to focus for a bit on those things that make you uniquely you, make you special. +I know this won't be easy. We have been conditioned since birth to focus upon the negatives. ""No, don't do that."" ""You can't sing/dance/draw."" ""You're stupid/fat/ugly."" Most of us heard some of those things from the moment we hit the school yard. Way too many of us had already learned them...at home. And every friend, lover, job that we have had since has just added to the list of those negatives. I am telling you to not so politely tell them to ""shut the 'f' up."" And when they do try, you will have to force yourself back to the positives. Yeah, I know a big task. That is why I am assigning this *homework* so far in advance of Valentine's Day. +Remember this is not just about writing a list of your good qualities. Most of us have been forced to do that at some point in our lives...job interviews are horrid for that one. No, this is about tooting your own horn...that thing we have all been told was so wrong and dirty to do. Not this time...and never again. You are special and amazing and if you don't know that then how do you expect anyone else to? So after you have that list then you have to write a paragraph telling what is so special about that quality. So here is a sample from mine... +*** +*I love how you take care of others.* Whether it is your children, your partners, your friends, the clients at the mental health day center where you used to cook, your elderly neighbors, or that poor lost child on the playground, you have this amazing gift for seeing what each one needs...be it a kind word, a cookie, or a kick in the pants. Most people cannot do even that...set themselves and their needs aside to look into the soul of others. But you take it even further, you take the time and put in the effort to give it to them...as much as you can anyways and way more than most people would. You are a light in the darkness of this world. Is it any wonder that people are attracted to you? +*** +Now you see...do that sort of thing, give specific examples like I did with my former job as a chef at the mental health day center. And do that for **at least** a dozen of your best qualities...your mind, your soul and yes as hard as it may be...your physical body too. +If that ain't hard enough...post it. To whatever social networking site you use. Yes, let your friends...and enemies...see you tooting your own horn. And encourage them to do so too. This Valentine's Day, show how much you love and appreciate the most special and amazing person of all...**YOU!**" +574,I Pushed My Pud Up Her Poop-Chute,Quint,How To,2002-03-28,2002-03-28,2022-01-04 08:35:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/i-pushed-my-pud-up-her-poop-chute,& other words/phrases to avoid in stories.,"['Bring Back', 'Character', 'Noun', 'Peanut Butter', 'Story', 'Term', 'Word']",4.34,"Would a penis by any other name smell as sweet? Hi, I'm Quint. You may remember me from such exciting articles as ""Proper Tuning and Maintenance of Your Pet Editor"" and ""Domming for Dummies: Get That Bitch Back in the Kitchen."" A quick glance through the naughty section of your local thesaurus demonstrates that there are lots of words for fucking, and even more words for the parts involved in fucking. As an author, it is your right, your responsibility, nay, your civic duty to be informed of these words so that you may call upon them in your time of need. Seriously, a quick story may get by with the same nouns performing the same action...but it's considerably more interesting if you play with the vocabulary. +The purpose of today's How-To can be summarized in two words: ""connotation"" and ""context."" Words all have a particular flavor. That's connotation. ""Voluptuous"" and ""obese"" both mean there's a little extra cushion for the pushin, but which one is the hero going to use to describe the heroine without getting slapped? It's important to be able to identify the flavor of a word before using it. Why does this matter? Characterization is one reason. By opting for a word with a particular connotation, you provide information about how the character thinks and talks. A virginal princess is not going to command the first male she's ever seen in her tower, ""Ram me with your hot dick, honey!"" It's just not consistent. Likewise, it's unlikely that Average Biker Joe Hunglikeahorse will coo, ""Baby, let me get in that sweet yoni of yours."" Not all words were created equal, my friend. Knowing when to use them is ""context."" +The other reason relates to your story as a whole. Think of writing as cooking. I know this disqualifies the college students in the audience but bear with me. We've got the basic idea of the story we want to create. We know the characters. Now let's give them a flavor. Is it sweet? Is it salty? How about your story? How does the word choice of each character positively and/or negatively affect the total piece? (Hint: a lot!) An otherwise-restrained woman could say the most nasty things imaginable after her lover has worked her up for pages. But I'd better believe she's that worked up before I am convinced she'd actually say that. (That's a topic for another How-To, so we'll leave it at that.) +In the interest of devoted Litsters everywhere, I have compiled a list of popular anatomical parts and briefly discussed the connotations of each word, as well as provided examples of characters who would probably say those words in certain situations. I've broken up this article into the following sections: the ""Salt"" groups consist of words that go in almost any situation. The ""Oregano"" groups consist of words that have a more specific context, such as dialect nouns. These words will work beautifully to enhance the flavor of certain recipes but might completely clash in others. Finally, the ""Peanut Butter and Pickle"" groups are the groups of words that almost never work. These nouns should be used as sparingly as possible, and the majority of your audience will probably thank you for using them never at all. Yes, I have heard of ""different strokes"" but honestly, ""wang?"" ""WANG?"" I rest my case. This article is not definitive, nor is it gospel truth. However, hopefully it will provide some guidance as you embark on that wacky adventure we call writing. +I.) Male genitalia +> a.) Salt > > 1.) Cock—A good basic.

However, after reading lots of smut—oh god, the neverending stream of smut—and receiving comments, suggestions, and other feedback, I believe that my understanding of the connotations people's minds instinctively supply for certain nouns is pretty accurate. And conscientious writers try to choose the best word for each situation to create the most effective, evocative piece of smut possible. By being aware of the flavor of the word you're considering and the respective flavors of the characters, scene, and story, you will be better able to create a thoroughly delicious piece of smut.

However, when you start to write you find your work looking like a bad 80s porno except your characters aren't as believable. Don’t worry, imagination deficiency is a common problem (even more common in “pron” for reasons ill get into below), and easily solved with a little work. +Imagination, bringing in a truly original work, is hard in the porno world because in the end every work breaks down into some sort of sexual scene. You can play with method and order of the sex, you can tweak with the stereotypes, and you can even tweak with the reality and universe of the sex, but it still centers on the acts. This admission DOES NOT MEAN YOU WRITE ONLY ABOUT THE SEX! A story that has nothing but hot sweaty lovin’ with no character expansion will be utterly boring to your readers. Yes, they come to be aroused and to eventually cum, but that doesn’t mean you should show them a slideshow of sexual positions. Let them fall in love with your characters, slip into your world briefly and then give them the hot action. This can be done in as little as 400-500 words, but don’t limit your self there. If you feel yourself explaining for a while and delaying the sexual bits, you tantalize your readers, get them in the mind of your characters, and make the characters more real for them when the plot turns steamy. Remember, REAL CHARACTERS EQUALS SEXUALLY SATISFIED READERS. +So, how does one make a real character, you might ask? How does one create a character that the reader can like, fall in love with, or empathize with? Well, the first trick is personality. Most porno writers feel the need to make every character a bland porno movie stereotype with little depth. While this may work in the sticky movies (debatable), it does not work so well in print. So first step is to add depth to the body. The easiest way and often the best way is to add some human quirk to the person that makes them different and unique from the other characters. Perhaps the brunette is a bit shy and naïve and has had bad experiences with anal sex in the past. Here you have the workings of a story. Perhaps, a character will take her in deference to this past or perhaps a character will woo her out of these feelings and bring her to love the butt sex or maybe the characters will respect this fear and turn her on to all the other pleasures of the body. Here two qualities and a single flashback have opened multiple story ideas, plus intriguing character interactions. The depth has done nothing to harm the sexual nature and in fact broadens the sexual nature by broadening its meaning. After you have the basic depths, push them through in the actions of the character. If she’s shy, she’ll be harder to pursue, require a bit more foreplay or maybe require a special personality to bring her out of her shell. If she’s naïve, she lacks experience. She’s tight, maybe gullible, and she’ll be a little more hesitant to try new things. She’ll still do it if you want her to, but she’ll be hesitant. Finally, we talked about the experience above and all the stories it opens up. Hell, one could write a believable and decent anal story with just this character and this premise as a plot. That’s why characters need depth. +Depth is key, but one can expand on that depth and bring more humanity into the story in other ways. For instance, most new writers have a tendency to write characters that are overly endowed in either the tits or cock department and have a superman libido. I’m not saying you shouldn’t have any characters like that, but you should at least consider the draw of more human characters. A smaller dick or at least an average sized dick will resonate with more of the readers and will allow the males to imagine themselves in the character’s place more easily. Plus, it can be more believable. A 12-inch cock has a hard time getting into places, cannot be deep-throated easily and is extremely hard to get into a tight pussy or ass without heavy, heavy foreplay and help. On the flip-side women with size F knockers may sound like a dream come true, but it’ll carry problems for your characters. Such characters cannot do as much acrobatic work with the dick, are prone to back pain, and also will not stand pertly out like a super-heroine. Real size F boobs will sag a bit, hurt if they swing too wildly and are very rare in the world. A size A boob, though tiny has perks. It is small enough to be swallowed, cup in your hand and fits more easily, naturally, and commonly on the thin tight bodies that have such cock-squeezing pussies and asses. I realize these examples only cover the heterosexual reasons for believability, but it works for gays and lesbians as well. Plus, a believable body can fit in nicely with a deeper personality. She’s inexperienced because her small boobs are overlooked. He hasn’t gotten laid much because he’s insecure about the size of his dick. Remember as I said before REAL CHARACTERS EQUAL SATISFIED READERS! +Having two or more believable characters with their quirks and fears and bodies is much of the battle with porno stories, but it is not everything. If you have decent characters, but abandon their personalities once the sex starts, then you have ruined your characters. Keep their personalities during the sex. Have their personalities shape the sex. You’ll have a more exciting and meaningful sex scene because of it. Also, have more of a reason then two or more horny people fuck as the plot of your story. Bring in the reasons. Exploit the ideas of your characters. If you have a horny geek or geekette who can’t get any, how do you have them try? Do they find someone over the internet, learn hypnotism, juggle for a friend, pay a frat boy or a sorority girl $50 for the key to their friend’s room after a kegger? A reason for the sex brings meaning to the sex and meaning makes the story believable and enjoyable. +The final bit of imagination is the hardest to get. While believable characters and a plot that doesn’t fully resemble a bad 80s porno flick can get you a decent enough stories, the ability to make a story truly stand out from the rest as something original is extremely hard. To come up with these amazing twists on the genre that create an intriguing world, I recommend you mix your reading of pron with some good non-erotic fiction stories. A bit of Bradbury, Douglas Adams, H.P. Lovecraft, Kurt Vonnegut, Isaac Asimov, Anne McCaffrey, Virginia Woolf, etc. can help you see the world a little differently and help you create those twists that make really memorable fiction. Plus, the grammar of these kings of the fiction world will do more to help you clean up the style of your work than any English class or editor will.

And we agree. But when was the last time you woke up and asked your partner what their deepest, darkest sexual fantasy was? +We always seem to be able to talk about sports, work, or the weather, but most couples don't talk about their true sexual wants, needs, and desires. +We can be naked with our partner. We can have sex with our partner. We can even talk dirty, sometimes. Why can't we have honest conversations about what we really want, need, and desire? +We like to assume that everything is great in our relationships, or at least we try to believe that everything is okay. Often we are missing out on really knowing our partner. When it comes to sex, most everyone wants it, but few are getting the sex they want and need. +Yes, we have become more open to sexuality, but not often enough in our own relationships. Why? We, as a society, still see sex as taboo. +We can openly talk about someone else being gay, but we can't talk about our own sexual leanings, especially with our partner(s). We can call a woman a slut, but most women can't talk openly about the men they've had sex with, or want to have sex with, with their partner(s). Why are we so afraid to talk about our sexual wants, needs, and desires with our partner(s)? +Past research has shown that couples avoid communication about sex because they perceive it as threatening in three different ways: +Threat to the relationship. +People fear the discussion will irreparably damage the relationship. In other words, they value their relationships even when they're not happy ones. So, they'd rather say nothing than risk a conversation that might improve it but might also tear it apart. +Threat to partner. +People fear discussion about their sexual wants and needs will hurt their partner's feelings. That is to say, they care about their partner's welfare even when they're not happy with the way their relationship with them is going. Again, they'd rather muddle through than make their partner feel uncomfortable, even with a chance of making things better. +Threat to self. +People fear discussion of their sexual wants and needs will make them vulnerable. If they reveal too much about themselves, they worry that their partner will disapprove of them or try to shame them, blame them, guilt them, tell others about them. We need our partner's approval, and the fear of losing it is a major reason why people avoid talking about sensitive issues in the first place. +One constant, when it comes to discussions about sexual wants and needs, is FEAR. We are so afraid of sex and what it means, and what it could mean to others. We've all heard the question, ""Why do you care what other people think?"" And many claim that they don't care. But what if you are a man and you have a desire to be pegged by your wife or girlfriend? That's probably not a subject you want to bring up around your guy friends. But what if doing so would help one of your friends not feel so alone? What if you, as a wife or girlfriend, have always wanted to have a threesome with two guys? You might be surprised at what your partner might say if he knew. +One eternal truth is; You can't get what you don't ask for. And surprise! Your partner can't read your mind. A couple can be together for years and never truly know one another. That's sad, but it's also another eternal truth. +By not communicating, you're essentially keeping secrets from one another. Twenty to thirty years of keeping secrets can really take a toll. And keeping secrets makes your relationship dishonest. +What must be realized is that communication is about connecting to one another. It's about using your verbal, written, and physical skills to fulfill your partner's needs. And the biggest need in any relationship is honesty. If you can't be honest with your partner, then that is the biggest problem. And if your relationship is based on fear, then it isn't much of a relationship. +A good relationship is one in which each person involved can be themselves without fear. Fear distorts your perception because it focuses primarily on the negative, exaggerates potential threats, filters out alternative views, and causes you to compromise your values out of the need to survive. If you are just surviving in your relationship, instead of thriving, you aren't living. You're existing. +To move beyond fear, you must stop denying the truth. You have to be honest with your partner to be honest with yourself. If you are not living the life, with your partner, that you want or need to, and you're keeping secrets, then you are at fault for your own unhappiness. +If you believe that your honesty would be a threat to your relationship, then what kind of relationship are you in? Do you see it as a healthy relationship? And if your honesty would be a threat to your partner, what does that mean? If you can't be honest about who you are, especially with your partner, then this appears to not only be a relationship with secrets, but also a relationship without trust. +If you are fearing your partner's possible response to you finally being honest with them, then you are projecting your fear upon them. I believe that most people want you to be honest with their partner. And if they are willing to spend the rest of their life with you, then it might be nice if they knew who they were really spending the rest of their life with. +Think of it this way; would you want to be in a relationship with someone who was dishonest, kept secrets, lied, pretended to be someone they weren't? +We all seek our partner's approval, and too many of us go too far in this endeavor. What we do is ""become one flesh."" We lose our own identity. And we essentially cease to exist. We believe we're happy . . . enough. And we often come to believe that we are getting what we deserve. The saddest part about that is that we are deciding what we deserve. We aren't giving our partner an opportunity to show us how much they feel we deserve. +If your partner doesn't know the real you, then they may ask who they've been living with. Being what and who someone wants you to be may work in the business world, but it's a complete fail in the relationship world. You can co-exist in a relationship, but you can't truly LIVE in a relationship if YOU are not in it. If your partner doesn't know the real you, the opportunity for them to love the real you is taken away. +The reason that true, honest communication about sex and your sexuality, your wants, and needs is so important is because once you can talk about these things, conversations about most anything else become easier. When you can openly discuss sex, your sexuality, your fantasies with your partner you can talk about anything. +Your partner wants to know and be able to love the real you. If you are not being true to yourself or your partner, they never can love the real you. A life lived in fear is no life at all. It is simply surviving. +Give your partner the opportunity to love the real you. Let them know the real you. Tell them who you really are. You might be surprised to find out that who you thought YOU were living with was someone who was waiting for you to be open and honest with them so that they could, without fear, be honest with you. + " +577,Improve Your Writing Technique,Mostdefinitely,How To,2018-04-29,2018-04-29,2022-01-04 08:35:15,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/improve-your-writing-technique-1,My advice for my fellow beginners.,"['Advice', 'How To', 'How To Improve', 'How To Write', 'Tips', 'Writing']",4.7,"_Author's Note: This's the second time I'm posting this article on Literotica. The first time it was up didn't go down so well. I kept getting attacked by anonymous trolls. Which I didn't handle in the manner I felt an adult should have. But I've decided to put it back up. Not because I wish to get under the skin of my critics, but for the reason I first put it up - to help other aspiring authors. If you can't respect that, please don't bother to read any further or post a comment. You will be ignored. And to those who plan to point out that not all the advice in here is original, please note; I never claimed it to be. Lastly, with exception to a typo, nothing's been changed from the first time this article was up._ +* * * * + **Introduction** +After the first story I submitted to Literotica, I discovered my writing was _terrible_. This didn't deter me, though. I went online, opened a couple of books and learned how to improve my style of writing. There's tons of advice you can find out there on how to do this. I'm about to give you what I believe is the cream of the crop, which I've modified or altered by including my own opinion. Here are the seven main sections which will be covered: + * Descriptive Writing * Tighten Your Prose * Writing Dialogue * Keep It Simple (Stupid!) * Know When to Conform * The Find Feature * Learn and Keep Learning +Before we start, I'd like to say I don't claim to be an expert in writing. I only wrote this piece for the Lit readers who like the adjusted way I write and are interested to know how I do my thing. I also read somewhere you should share what you know with other beginners, and this seemed to be a good way to do so. Now that I've gotten my excuses out the way, let's get started: + **Descriptive Writing** +When writing a scene, your main goal should be to make us - your readers - feel like we're actually there; watching it unfold before our very eyes - if you're writing in the third person. Or as if we can see it happening through the eyes of your main character - if you're writing in the first person. +This can be achieved by incorporating all five senses into your prose. Tell your readers what we can see, hear, feel, taste and smell. Simple enough, right? But when you do this, the important thing to remember is to _be specific_. Don't be lazy or vague and give us descriptions like this: + _She smelt nice._ +Paint us a more _accurate_ and therefore _memorable_ mental image. Rather say: + _She smelt of her black raspberry and vanilla soap._ +Sometimes, what I like to do is close my eyes and picture the scene in my head. Then I choose my favourite details and include them in my story. But, and this's important, don't overdo it by including _too_ many details: +Many readers find a lot of details to be boring, because they slow down the read. They can cause a few of your readers to think you're compensating for a scrawny plot. And too many details are one ways to get your story labelled as ""purpose prose."" Which sounds nice, but it's not what you're aiming for. We'll deal with the other ways that'll earn you the tag later on. +Another thing, one or two _well-placed_ details can tell your readers everything we need to know. For instance, if one of your characters sat on the couch, your readers will assume he/she was in the living room. Or if he watched a smart TV, then we know this story didn't take place in the early two-thousands. Or if she studied, we know she's a student. Or if it snowed outside, then it'd be strange for us to assume the story took place during summer. +Also, don't feel the need to go deep in describing all the locations and objects in your story, because now that we live in a global village everybody has a good idea of what most stuff looks like. Let your readers infer what you believe is unimportant. And if there's one specific place you definitely want to avoid giving too many details, especially trivial ones, it's at the _beginning_ of your story. Most readers would prefer you just dive into your plot. +I know what one or two of you are thinking: _You just told me to make my readers feel like they're there by giving them specific details and now you're telling me not to give them details!_ +I know, I know. It's a paradox. But I've seen stories where readers complained about a lack of description, and I've been criticized about overdoing it. I think the key is to find _balance_. Not too much and not too little - throughout your story. This isn't easy and takes a lot of reading and practice to master. I still struggle with it. + **Figurative Language** +This seems to be the most effective way of painting a strong mental image. Some authors say you should avoid using similes and metaphors, but I must say I _disagree_ : +I see very little wrong with them. Some of the best authors use similes, metaphors, hyperboles and so on. Many famous sayings are based on figurative language, i.e. ""Paint me a word picture."" I enjoy coming across good pieces of them when I'm reading - I'm sure I'm not the only one. Plus, I've read it's okay in informal writing. +Coming up with new and effective figures of speech can be difficult, because it seems as if all the good ideas have been taken. But there's a cosmos of unused ideas that're just waiting to be written. You just need to follow a couple rules when you're trying to come up with them: +First, and most importantly, your new figures of speech need to _make sense_. When your readers read them, we have to know what you're going on about, which isn't _that_ difficult. Just keep it simple. Don't force ones that don't work. Let them come to you while you're writing or rewriting. And they _must_ have a point - even if it's a small one; so don't write them just to show off. +Secondly, they need to be appropriate in terms of the context in which they're being used. Comparing, let's say, the brown eyes of one of your characters to "" _poop""_ probably isn't the type of mental image you want to give your readers. I'll admit; that's an extreme example, but it makes my point. +Lastly, and this isn't mandatory, I think the best figures of speech are the ones that cause readers to do just _a little_ thinking - like the punchline of a great joke. Like I said, this isn't as important as the first two rules. But I felt it's information you should know. +If ever you find yourself struggling to come up with new pieces of figurative language, here's a tip you can use: take old figures of speech in your story and change them to the point they become unrecognizable. Sticking to the guidelines I gave you, of course. For instance, I once used this metaphor: ""The look of lust in her eyes was in _HD._ "" It originated from the - I found a little too cliché - simile: ""...as clear as daylight"". +Now that you're armed with this information, _please_ don't go mad and invent new figures of speech left, right and centre. The problem about them is they're distracting and pull your readers out the story, whereas you'd rather have them focused on your plot. Well-known figures of speech don't have this problem. And - other than they're uninspiring - I don't think there's anything wrong with using cliché lines. Or should I say _certain_ cliché lines? Similes in particular, i.e. avoid ""like a jackhammer."" Also, use them in moderation. I say keep all your best brand new figures of speech and get rid of your sloppy ones. + **Show Don't Tell** +This's a well-known rule in the creative writing community. If you're unfamiliar with it, here's what it means; instead of giving quick and bland descriptions of what's going on in a scene, what your characters are like, what they're doing, how they feel, and so on, rather give fine details that allow your readers to _infer_ the information you want to convey. That's a fairly thorough breakdown, but if you're still confused, here's an example: + _Mary was shocked._ +This description is lazy. Here's how _showing_ strengthens it: + _Mary's eyes widened as she placed a hand over her mouth._ +Again, don't go crazy and show absolutely everything in your story. If you do, it will become a ridiculously long and tedious read. Here's the rule I follow regarding the ""Show Don't Tell"" principle; _if it's boring and/or unimportant, quickly tell it or get rid of it._ And Elmore Leonard once said, ""Try to leave out the part that readers tend to skip."" +* + **Tighten Your Prose** +This's probably the most important part of writing, so find your pen and pad. When editing your work, there's a phrase you should be chanting in your head - _eliminate redundancy!_ With exception to the use of repetition, you need to get rid of all the words, sentences and even _paragraphs_ that tell your readers something they already know. This isn't as simple as it sounds, because there are _a lot_ of subtle ways in which redundancy occurs: +Let's begin with _adjectives_ ; words that describe _nouns_ and _pronouns_ , for those who're hazy on what they learned in school. I know they can be _useful._ See? But a lot of the time they _are not_ needed. Take a look at this example: + _She walked into her walk-in closet and emerged with a warm coat._ +Did you spot the words that need to be taken out? If you didn't, they're the words "" _walk-in_ "" and "" _warm._ "" We know it's a _walk-in_ closet because she "" _walked into_ "" it. And how many coats do you know that aren't _warm_? Here's a trickier example: + _There was a full-moon in the partially clouded, dark sky._ +The word that doesn't belong in this sentence is the word "" _dark._ "" We know the sky is _dark_ because I told you about the moon. I know it's possible to see the moon during the day, but the moon is normally associated with nighttime, so your readers will assume the sky is dark. +Now let's deal with _adverbs_ ; words that describe or modify _verbs_ , _adjectives_ and other _adverbs_. I know they can also be useful, like the word "" _partially_ "" in the ""... _partially clouded, dark sky_ "" example. The word "" _partially_ "" can stay here, because it gives us a specific detail that paints a clearer metal image in an otherwise vague description. But adverbs arefrequently unneeded. For example: + _She glared._ +Would not be different if it was written like this: + _She glared angrily._ +Or: + _He shook his head._ +Would not be improved like this: + _He shook his head disapprovingly._ +Get rid of all your unneeded adverbs and adjectives. Some readers find them to be distracting. And if you don't, you run the risk of getting your story labelled with the phrase ""purple prose"" again, just like including too many details in your story will do. But this time, you'll get the tag because your more critical readers will think you're trying to prettify your prose. There's one more way you can do this, but we'll get there. +Deciding which words can stay and which words must go can be tricky. But just ask yourself this: Does this word _really_ need to be here? +Here's some extra advice that might help you, as well: When you're in the process of selecting your words, think of yourself as a lawyer, questioning a witness. Be methodical in the way you construct your sentences. Otherwise, your readers might object! +Sorry, I couldn't resist. +Another thing you need to be on the lookout for is _clarification._ Do not feel the need to explain everything in your story. Especially when you're writing for this site. All Lit readers are adults and should be treated as such. I know giving you an example right now contradicts what I'm saying, but I think exceptions can be made for this category. Remember the example in the ""Show Don't Tell"" subsection? It would've been ruined had it been written like this: + _Mary's eyes widened as she placed a hand over her mouth - she was shocked._ +I'm sure you can see why the ""s _he was shocked_ "" part is redundant and why it'll irritate a few of your readers. +Then there're words that don't tell us something we already know, but they are _still_ unneeded. It's frightening how many there are. Here are a few to look out for: _very_ , _quite_ , _really_ , _much_ , _often, rather_ , _so_ , _way_ , _pretty, kind/sort of_ (adverbs in general, really), _that_ , _still,_ _even_ , _now_ , _with that_ , _of_ , _had,_ _could/would_ , _just_ / _only_ , _because_ / _as_ , _started_ / _began to_ or in combination with a word ending in - _ing_ , _was_ / _were_ in combination with a word ending in - _ing_. +And trust me when I say the list goes on and on. Those are only the most common and glaring ones. In fact, right before I gave you that list, I almost said, ""...and here are a few to be on the look out for."" But then I realized the "" _be on the_ "" part wasn't needed. See what I mean? Here's how you should fix sentences containing the words _was_ , _were_ , _started_ and _began_ : + _Trish and Jack were sitting on a blanket. They were watching the sunset._ +These sentences would be stronger if they were written like this: + _Trish and jack sat on a blanket. They watched the sunset._ +Or: + _Jack started to swim towards Trish._ +Would be stronger like this: + _Jack swam towards Trish._ +It's not always easy or sometimes even possible to get rid of the words in that list. Sometimes simply leaving them in makes a sentence shorter than trying to change it, or keeps it grammatically correct, or supports the effect or delivery you're going for. Which would render them _not redundant_. But try to get rid of as many surplus words as you can. Read the sentence out loud without the word you're thinking of omitting, and if it works, delete it. Whether they're short or long, your goal should be to make your sentences as short as possible. Put your readers through as little unnecessary reading as you can. Trust me; they'll thank you. +Another thing you can do to tighten your sentences is to use other or better words. For example: + _I got to my feet._ +Could be improved like this: + _I got up._ +Or even tighter: + _I stood._ +Or: + _Lisa ran very quickly._ +Would be better like this: + _Lisa sprinted._ +The last thing you can do to tighten your sentences is to use _contractions_. Or, words like; _it's_ , _you're_ , _we've_ , _they're_ , and so on, instead of using two words. It'll cut down your word count, too. Although, I've been told to do this sparingly in narration. + **Kill Your Darlings** +This's a brilliant principle, said by William Faulkner. I included it in the ""Tighten Your Prose"" section because I feel like they are related. If you're unfamiliar with it, here's a breakdown; as authors or aspiring authors, we tend to fall in love with certain words, phrases, scenes, characters, descriptions, sex acts and so on, that we've included or wish to include in our story. But deep down inside, we know our story would be _better off_ without them. I know it can be hard, but you must be strong and _kill your darlings!_ +For instance, I'm _dying_ to write a sex scene in the kitchen of one of my stories, but none of them allow me to. Another nice example is the simile I used not so long ago: + _When you're in the process of selecting your words, think of yourself as a lawyer, questioning a witness. Be methodical in the way you construct your sentences._ +Don't you think it's better without the silly joke? + ***** + **Writing Dialogue** +My favourite topic. There's a fair amount of information you need to know about how to do this, as it takes up a good deal of most stories. We'll start with the most important part: Your characters need to talk realistically - like people in real life. So things like perfect grammar and sentence tightening techniques are not that important - unless that's how one or two of your character's talk. +What's more, factors like age, gender, personality, nationality, level of education, occupation, sexual orientation, and so on, should determine not only the way your characters talk, but also the kind of words they use. I remember reading a children's novel a while ago, and I couldn't help getting annoyed at some of the conversations between the kids. I kept thinking... _most adults don't even talk like this._ +The next thing you need to know is dialogue should only be opened when you want to use your character's words to _show_ your readers an _integral_ part of your plot, or, when there's a _transition_ or a _change_ in a relationship between characters. Let's get into an example that deals with everything I said: +Helen picked up her ringing landline. +""Hello."" +""Hey, Helen. It's me, Frank."" +""Oh, hi, Frank."" She smiled. ""How're you?"" +He sighed. ""Not so good, actually."" +Helen became concerned. ""What's wrong?"" +""Umm...it's kinda hard for me to say."" +""Just tell me what's wrong."" +He sighed again. ""Helen."" +""Yea?"" +""I...I called to break up with you."" +""What?"" She felt her heart sink. "" _Why_?"" +He paused. ""Umm, it's kinda difficult for me to tell you."" +""Just tell me why, Frank!"" +He sighed. ""...I'm really struggling here."" +""You're seeing another woman, aren't you? Who is it? It's probably that slut, Kate, isn't it! TELL ME, DAMN IT!"" +""No, Helen"" - he took a deep breath and exhaled - ""I'm gay."" +As you can see, this dialogue's fairly realistic and shows us a change in a relationship - in this case, a relationship between lovers. But there's one glaring problem. It's a little _too_ realistic. Here's why; the way people talk in real life often carries no meaning, beats around the bush and too many words are used. And when it comes to storytelling, this isn't the information you want to give your readers. +Parts of dialogue like ""hello,"" ""how are you,"" ""goodbye"" and other unneeded lines need to be taken out of your story. Remember the rule I gave you for when you are _showing_ and not _telling: If it's boring and/or unimportant, quickly tell it or get rid of it._ Good dialogue cuts to the chase and says everything that has to be said in as few words needed to be effective. Here's an improved version of that conversation between Helen and Frank: +Helen picked up her ringing landline. +""Oh, how're you, Frank?"" She smiled. +He sighed. ""Not so good, actually."" +Helen became concerned. ""What's wrong?"" +""Helen, I...I called to break up with you."" +""What?"" She felt her heart sink. "" _Why_?"" +""Ahh...it's kinda difficult for me to say."" +""You're seeing another woman, aren't you? Who is it? It's probably that slut, Kate, isn't it? Just tell me, frank!"" +""No, Helen"" - he took a deep breath and exhaled - ""I'm gay."" +As you can see, I've managed to keep the dialogue realistic, and did it using a lot less words. What did you learn from the first example that you didn't learn in the second? The only difference is you learned everything you needed to know more efficiently in the second example. Which is better, no ifs and/or buts about it. +I will say this, however; if you _absolutely_ feel you need to include ""hellos,"" ""goodbyes"" and so on, rather sum them up in quick sentences before or after you open and close dialogue. Or just be quick about it, like I did in the second Helen and Frank example. +Other than your characters' words, here's what else dialogue can contain: + * Dialogue tags - words like ""said"" and ""asked"" that indicate which character said what. + * Character actions - a shrug, a nod, a smile and so on. Without them, your characters' voices can seem disembodied. They can _also_ be used to help indicate which character spoke. + * Thoughts and feelings - what's going on in your main character's head or heart. + * Summaries - used to quicken lengthy or redundant parts of dialogue. + * Clarification - used to explain parts of dialogue that'll definitely leave your readers in the dark. + * Scene descriptions - perhaps a meteorite crashes in your characters' back yard during a chat. +Most of that stuff is simple enough to understand. But the way you use _dialogue tags_ is a little more complex: +When you want to insert a dialogue tag, it's best to stick to _said_ and _asked_. A lot of readers find other or decorative dialogue tags to be distracting. As you should know by now, this pulls them out of enjoying your story. The next thing you need to know is that dialogue tags are often unneeded. Your readers can tell who spoke just by reading the words inside the quotation marks. For instance: +""Mom, I'm going to the store,"" said Dave. +""How long are you going to take?"" she asked. +""About twenty minutes,"" he said. +""Alright. Dinner will be on the table in thirty,"" she said. +Now, if Dave and his mom are the only people in the room, is it necessary to include dialogue tags? Of course not. Only Dave would use the word ""Mom,"" right? So the ""said Dave"" tag falls into the redundant bin. The ""she asked"" and subsequent tags also need to be removed, because when you close what a character says with quotation marks, move onto the next paragraph and then open them again, your readers know it's the other character's turn to talk. And why would Dave ask himself how long is he going to take? +But what if Dave's brother Todd was also in the room? Then the ""said Dave"" tag could possibly stay, depending on what took place before. However, it still wouldn't be necessary to include the ""she asked"" tag. Dave's statement was directed towards Mom. Your readers will assume she'll give the reply. Remember that Lit readers are adults. Trust they're smart enough to figure this kind of stuff out. Scroll back up (or go back to the previous page) and reread the Helen and Frank examples. You'll notice not a single dialogue tag was used. Yet you always knew who said what, because it was obvious. Try to only insert dialogue tags when it's unclear who spoke. It's the way of the modern writer. +It's okay to use dialogue tags other than ""said"" and ""asked"" when you want to give a detail those words cannot convey by themselves. For example, you can say, ""he muttered,"" ""she whispered,"" ""I lied"" and so on. But be careful when you do this. You can _easily_ fall victim to redundancy. If a character ""quipped"" or ""joked,"" it will probably be evident it their words. If ""she exclaimed,"" doesn't the exclamation mark tell us that? Or if ""he lied"" and your readers know about this from what we read before, then why're you telling us again? +The last thing I need to tell you about dialogue tags is you need to try your best not to follow them with _adverbs_ , even when it seems necessary. It's one of the glaring indicators of a lazy writer. Let your character's words or actions _show_ how he/she said something. For instance: +""You're an idiot,"" she said playfully. +Would be better like this: +""You're an idiot."" She smiled. +Here's how you can use your character's words to _show_ how he/she spoke: +""Why do you care?"" his wife asked neutrally. +Would be better like this: +""Honey, why do you care?"" +Since people don't normally use terms of endearment when they are angry, your readers can infer she didn't say it in a mean way. +There's one more thing about writing dialogue; character actions and other bits of information placed between your characters' words can be - like everything else - overdone and as distracting as using dialogue tags incorrectly. Only do it when you feel it's necessary. + ***** + **Keep It Simple (Stupid!)** +I love this principle, and here's why: + * It makes writing easier. + * It makes your story easier to read and understand for your readers. + * It supports ""Kill Your Darlings."" + * The overuse of fancy words causes readers to have to constantly open their dictionaries, which irritates them and pulls them out the story. It may even turn them off reading as a whole. + * The use of fancy words causes critical readers to think you're trying to make yourself sound intelligent. + * Finally, using fancy or decorative words is another way to get the ""purple prose"" tag. +The use of fancy words should only be implemented when you cannot think of a more well-know and/or appropriate word. If you are an MS Word user, simply right-click on the word you're trying to simplify. This will bring up a shortcut-menu. Hover the pointer over its "" _Synonyms_ "" option, and a list of alternative words will appear. +You can also use a fancy word if it will help tighten a sentence, provided it isn't _too_ uncommon. Remember Lit readers are adults. So you have more leeway than authors who write for children. +One more thing about keeping it simple; a lot of words have a lot of well- known synonyms, but try to stick to one or two ways to say something. This reinforces why you should only use ""said"" and ""asked"" in dialogue. In fact, I'm thinking of getting rid of ""asked"" too in my stories. + ***** + **Know When to Conform** +I haven't read this rule anywhere before, so I'm going to ahead and coin it. It came to mind after a reader of my first story told me he didn't like the euphemisms I used to call certain body parts. It's a well-known rule in erotica you should just call a vagina a ""vagina."" But that's when I learned it. As I wrote my next story, I noticed there were other instances in which this principle can be applied. +For instance, almost every horror movie I can remember watching started with somebody getting killed at the beginning. Why? Because it lets us know we're about to watch a scary movie. +I'm not saying you must stop trying to be unique. Maybe you don't want your male character to have a nine or ten-inch cock, or your female character to be a blonde blue-eyed woman with a perfect ass, a flat stomach and double Ds. Which I'd commend you for. +But sometimes, it's best to just do what everybody else is doing. Or better yet, sometimes it's best to play by the rules of your genreor Lit category - like the Humour and Satire one, where it's okay to use weird euphemisms. + ***** + **The Find Feature** +If you've ever edited your own story before, I'm sure you know how tedious of a task it can be. There are so many typos you can make, and the Spelling and Grammar check feature doesn't detect them all. Plus, our brains have this irritating tendency to correct mistakes for us while we're reading, so they go unnoticed. But somebody else _always_ does. What I like to do is keep a list of all those tricky-to-spot mistakes in a document of their own. +For instance, you might have a tendency to spell the word _your_ instead of _you're_ , or _quite_ instead of _quiet_ , or _there_ instead of _they're_. Write them down somewhere when you come across them during an editing session or when somebody points them out. I also keep a list - that seems to keep growing - of those frequently unneeded words. But trying to find all of them by yourself, in an attempt to help your editor, is downright difficult. MS Word's _Find_ feature helps make the job easier. +Whether you use the 2010, -13 or -16 edition, you pretty much do the same thing. Hold down _Ctrl_ and press _F_ (or select the _Find_ button in the _Editing_ section on the _Home_ tab) which will bring up the Navigation pane. In the _Search document_ box, type the word or phrase you're looking for. A list of the times you used it will appear - you might also have to select the _Results_ or third option under the _Search document_ box. You can then check if you used the word correctly, fix it if you didn't or delete it if it's unneeded. +Sometimes you might want to search for a word like _mom._ In this case,to check if you spelt it with a capital _M_ each time you used it as a name. You'll notice other words containing the word mom are also shown, like _moment_ and _momentarily_. This may occur too many times for the Navigation pane to show. Not a problem. Simply select the down arrow or magnifying glass in the _Search document_ box. Select "" _Options""_ and tick the "" _Find whole words only""_ option in the dialogue box that appears. Search for the word again. You'll notice now only the times you wrote ""mom"" appear. +If you're writing a long story, the word you're looking for might still appear too many times for the Navigation pane to show. If this happens, at least the words are highlighted for you in the document, and you can check them one by one using the up and down arrows in the Navigation pane. Just make sure you've filtered the search with the _Find whole words only_ option, too. +You can also use the _Find and Replace_ feature to help you search for and change errors. Just hold down _Ctrl_ and press _H_ (or select the _Replace_ button in the Editing section on the Home tab). Inside there you can select the "" _More_ "" button to get the _Find whole words only_ option. + ***** + **Learn and Keep Learning** +This's my final piece of advice and motto I live by as a writer. Nobody knows everything there is to know about writing. In fact, I don't think anybody knows everything about anything. Which is why there's always room for improvement. Luckily, most members on Literotica are kind and want to help you get better.

Below I have summarized the questions aspiring authors ask me and my answers to them. Hope this helps you write better stories. + **Plot:** All well written stories follow the simple, 3-act structure: Greek Tragedies to Shakespeare to Spielberg. +Act 1: Beginning +Introduce the setting and time (solidly ground your reader so he knows where and when) +Introduce at least some of the characters (so your reader can begin emotional involvement with them.) +The precipitating incident (why start the story now?) Also use this to hint what the story is about. +Begin action NOW! If you haven't done something interesting (the hook) by the third page (of a novel-length story) you've probably lost your reader. Shorter stories, even sooner. +Act 2: Middle +Build the story +Two steps forward, one step back. Difficulty makes forward progress sweeter. +Your readers want to see small victories and failures on your character's path to the big victory. +Build from small to more significant and important happenings. Build tension via failure. +Act 3: End +Your story's climax +Summary & wrap-up (if Romance, then end with Happily Ever After) + **Memory Dump** +Don't dump a lot of description in all at once, especially right at the beginning. +Sprinkle it in as your story proceeds. +White space (makes your story easier on the eye and brain): +Vary sentence length and paragraph length. Keep sentence length to 24 words or less. +Use dialogue to give the reader's brain a change of pace +Use thoughts (internal dialogue) to give the reader's mind a rest from action +If you can't read it out loud a week later without stumbling, fix your stumbling block. +Let the characters 'live and experience' what you want your reader to experience. Through your characters, let your readers live it, too. Don't just tell them! (The old adage: show, don't tell!) + **Character Development** +Characters should grow, change, and develop as a result of what they do in your story. Else, why have the story at all? +All major characters, even your villains, must be someone the reader can become emotionally involved with (either good or bad). Enjoyment of reading comes from emotional attachment and involvement. Without this, the story will be flat, and if the reader does finish reading it, he/she will end up frustrated and dissatisfied. You don't want frustrated readers. + **Character Goals, Motivation, and Conflict** (GMC). Each character must have all three. +Goals: What does the character want? (It's best if goals are both surface and deep-rooted) +Example: Main character, Joe, wants romance with Marcy (surface). Joe wants to reinforce his manhood image to himself and boost his ego. (deeper) +Motivation: Why does he want what he wants? +Example: Make him feel manly and 'worthy' of existence as a human being. +Conflict: Why can't he have it? +Example: Marcy thinks he's a nerd, beneath her, and she won't give him the time of day. Not only that, she's been living with his best friend forever, and isn't about to change. +Your story will now be about how Joe integrates these GMC's and succeeds, or accepts failure. Without goals, motivations, and conflict, your characters and story will be boring. +Caution: Petty arguments are not conflict, nor are minor disagreements that could be solved by simple discussion. Conflict must be substantial, something worth fighting/struggling to overcome. + **Point of View (POV)** +Point of view means through whose eyes the reader experiences your story. +If 'Jerry' is your point of view character, the reader should experience the story (or that part of the story) through his senses, and only his senses. He knows only what he feels, hears, smells, says, tastes, and/or thinks. He does not know what anyone else thinks unless they tell him, or he infers it from something they do or say or show via their expressions. +POV should remain constant throughout any scene. To do otherwise disorients the reader and is quite annoying. (In professional jargon it's called 'head hopping.'). Anything that disorients the reader is prone to sending him away to some other writer/story. +POV should be changed only at chapter breaks or scene breaks. Not in the middle of scenes or paragraphs. Usually, it's easier at first if the whole story is written it one POV, but not always. +When changing POV, make it obvious that the POV has changed and to whose POV it changed. Example: If Jerry was the POV character, and Sue is to be the new POV, then in the first sentence maybe say _: Sue thought, Sue heard, Sue wished, Sue tasted,_ or whatever is appropriate to your story. Jerry would not have thought, wished, tasted or heard exactly what Sue did, so now we know we're in Sue's head instead of Jerry's. +When you use one character as the Point of View, that is often referred to 'Close' or 'Deep' POV because the reader is close to that character. This POV has the advantage of putting the reader inside the character's head where it's easier to achieve the reader's emotional involvement with the character. (Which, as an author, is your primary goal, right?) +Old fashioned stories will sometimes be written in another POV called 'Omniscient.' At best, this POV distances the reader from the characters. At worst, it ends up being an excuse for plain old, self-destructive 'head hopping.' With Omniscient POV the viewer stands far back and watches, sort of like a god, seeing all, knowing all, but really not caring all that much about the characters or what is happening to them. Not good for involving your reader with your story. +Head hopping with POV problems is one of the greatest faults I've seen with stories from new authors. Do your best for your great story ideas & plots. Control your POV's. + **Verb Tense** +Verb tense must remain constant throughout the story (except when contained within quoted dialogue, thoughts, letters, documents, etc.). If it's happening now, it stays now. If it happened sometime in the past, then it stays past. Don't mix them. +Note: Present tense tends to be fatiguing to read because it's very urgent. But if you need something urgent and it's short, (as within dialogue) then use it. But don't overdo it. + **Person** +First person: The 'I/we' way of telling something. 'We went to the café, where I hit on the cashier again.' +Second person: The 'You' way of telling something. 'You go to a café, and there you hit on the cashier again.' Seldom works, so don't use it if you can avoid it. Mostly you see second person in cooking recipes: '(You) break three eggs, then (you) mix them with the milk and flour. (You) roll out 1/4"" thick and (you) cut into 1 inch squares.' Incidentally, much of this article is 2nd person because it is a case of giving directions (like a recipe). +Third Person: The 'he/him/she/her/they/it/them' way of telling something. 'They went to the café where he hit on the cashier for the hundredth time .' +Keep the 'person' of your story constant. Don't wander off into mixing. Of course, it's okay, done properly, to mix within dialog and thoughts, just as it's no problem to mix tenses within dialogue and thoughts. But beware to do it right! +So there you have it. Hope all this helps you write better and earn more favorable reader response.

Our sex life I think could be classified as on par with many people in our situation. Like most married men, I love my wife very much but always wish she would be a little more experimental in bed. I have asked her over the years to try a few different things and most of the time she goes along with my suggestions, but it feels very static. I think she feels like she is being judged on her performance and can't really enjoy the excitement of the moment. +Needless to say, I have come to be quite frustrated at times and wanting for something more. I think this is the time where a lot of men start looking for the greener grass and end of getting themselves in trouble or doing things they later regret. I know this wasn't the path I wanted to go down. So I had to come up with some way of both of us being able to enjoy new ideas and improve our sex life. +I ended up talking to someone who had had similar frustrations and I was excited to find out what he had done to improve his sex life. He told me about someone he had contacted online that helped him immensely. The general idea was that this person would communicate with his wife through e-mail and remain totally anonymous. He had given his wife a few surveys to fill out on things that she enjoyed and didn't enjoy about their sex life. The beauty in all of this was that his wife was free to communicate her feelings without being judged by her husband. +After both he and his wife had taken the surveys, they would receive instructions of things to do or ways to make their partner happy. My friend said that his sex life had improved dramatically with the new things his wife was trying. Also, he had been told there were things that he needed to do to improve. I laughed when he told me he was now working out at the gym and buying flowers more often but that the compensation was immense. +I took down the e-mail address and wrote to this gentleman that very night. My e-mail was replied to very quickly. I then talked to my wife and told her what I had found out. She was skeptical at first but I made it clear that if anything seemed bad, she didn't have to go through with it. I told her how it had helped our friend and his wife and how those feelings of straying to greener grass had vanished with his newfound sex life. She knew she was somewhat reserve in bed and wanted us to be happy and so she agreed to at least try it. +Like my friend, our first tasks were to fill out some surveys that asked about past sexual experiences and ideas for new ones. We were asked for likes and dislikes and things we were nervous to do, things we wanted to do, and things we would never do. In doing this, we were given scenarios that we were both willing to try. We both had to be in contact with this gentleman through e-mail so he would have both sides of the story when it came to what was anticipated in our sex life. +One of the first things I was told to do was buy flowers for my wife for no reason. Boy was she surprised when she got home and found a dozen roses and a note on the kitchen table, just because. And boy was I surprised when I got out of the shower that evening and found her lying on the bed in a new bra and panty outfit on with a little extra make-up on. Usually she came to bed having just removed it all and dressed in a comfortable, yet not sexy, nightgown. +Needless to say, our sex life and marriage has improved dramatically. We have done new things from using a wig, being tied to the bed, flashing a trucker, to spending a long weekend at a motel. Of course there have been things that I had wanted to do but that she had said no way to in our surveys. But I have to tell you the truth. I'm not disappointed because the other areas have exceeded my wildest dreams. She feels comfortable because I'm not ""begging"" and I have a wife who now brings new ideas to bed with her. And the best part of all of this was that we didn't have to pay for a marriage counselor or end up growing farther apart. The e-mails were free. I don't even know who the guy was, but he did a world of good for my wife and me. By the way, let me know and I'll pass along the address. I know it was a lifesaver for my sanity and sexual well-being." +580,In Defense of Cuckolding,PolySwingerWife,How To,2021-05-13,2021-05-13,2022-01-04 08:35:18,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/in-defense-of-cuckolding,Understanding Cuckold Relationships.,"['Bull', 'Cuckold', 'Excitement', 'Husband', 'Wife']",4.17,"When we think of someone who takes part in cuckolding, we think of a risk- taker. The type of person you might describe as a ""deviant."" Men who participate in cuckolding suggest it can help to create profound and positive life changes -- both in the short term and long term. +Over the long term, these experiences support sustained well-being benefits including the realization that emotions, such as fear and jealousy, that are traditionally considered negative, do not have to constrain a person. +These reflections can often change people's everyday lives -- they describe no longer ""being bored with life or sex"" and talk of having a passion they thought was long gone. They also report seeing other people in a much more positive way after being cuckolded. +Cuckolds often describe extraordinary sensory experiences of the sort not usually available in everyday life. This is because during a cuckolding experience, a person's ability to see, hear, and feel is all enhanced. +Of course, when taking part in these types of activities, risk is always involved. Perhaps this is why nonparticipants find it hard to understand why anyone would willingly be cuckolded -- unless there is something ""not normal"" about ""those type of people"". +Cuckolds also possess a well-tuned knowledge of their own physical and psychological capacities and limitations. This is vitally important because cuckolding is not for men who give in to fear or are afraid of taking risks. +Cuckolds can shine a light on what it means to be human -- and what other human beings are capable of. But to realize this, as a society, we need a cultural shift that accepts cuckolding as beneficial, along with a change in view that recognizes cuckolding as an example of what is possible when a couple communicates and trusts one another. +Cuckolds are often successful business owners, college-educated, well-to-do individuals. They're laid back but focused. And they aren't afraid of taking risks. +Cuckolds' brains may be naturally lower in levels of dopamine and/or serotonin, according to research from Monasterio. +Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that helps manage your brain's reward and pleasure centers, plus regulates physical and emotional responses. +The neurotransmitter serotonin regulates a variety of psychological and bodily functions, including mood regulation, sexual desire, sleep, and social behavior. When out of balance both can lead to depressive feelings, fatigue, anxiety, and more. But instead of sitting on the couch and brooding, many cuckolds ""fix it"" by having their wives have sex with other men. Problem solved. +Moments before his wife has sex with another man, a cuckold feels a surge of fear and excitement. His heart rate spikes and his insides rumble. As his wife is entered by another man, those electric feelings give way to an intense rush, then deep focus. He must position himself to get the best view. Then, he must watch the other man make love to his wife, a few times, often within two hours or more. +Cuckolding forces emotion out of the cuckold, and that primary emotion is fear. So, the person who has difficulty with emotions goes into cuckolding to feel their emotions. If a man has difficulty experiencing and expressing emotions in everyday life, then cuckolding becomes an exercise in empowerment in which he can conquer the most primal emotion of them all: fear. They get a strong sense of living life to its fullest as if touching their full potential. +Humans are social creatures by nature. Even those who are introverted still need some level of socialization to remain well-adjusted emotionally. Studies have even discovered that socialization is critical for cognitive functionality. This is another area where cuckolding receives high marks because it is done with other people. This increases the bond between a husband and wife, and it will also give the two of them the many benefits of socialization. +Exposure to stressful encounters, like cuckolding, can physically change your mental make-up to help you better handle other stressful situations. We all possess an amino acid called neuropeptide Y that, among other things, assists with the regulation of anxiety, acting as a natural sedative. Researchers from Yale Medical School tested whether it's possible to increase our natural levels of this stress-beating chemical by monitoring the biological data of cuckold men who have watched their wives have sex with multiple men. +Interestingly, researchers discovered that these men did possess higher amounts of the chemical in their bodies than men in monogamous relationships, suggesting that one can become a more resilient person through exposure to stressful experiences, including participating in cuckolding. +What makes cuckolding so attractive to some men? Thrill: This is the single most attractive factor in men's interest in cuckolding. The adrenaline rush is what differentiates it from any other type of sexual activity. The thrill that is derived from seeing another man ejaculate into your wife is highest. The cuckolds are fully exposed and possibly putting their relationship at risk. Cuckolding is also widely condemned for the same reason, as many men don't think it worth it to put their relationship in harm's way just to see their wife orgasm with other men. +Pushing The Limits: Cuckolding is about pushing limits. It's about living life on the edge. It's about getting out of your comfort zone and just going for it. You're allowing another man, or other men, to do for and to your wife what you may never be able to do yourself. You are giving your wife to other men for their pleasure. And your wife is doing what society says is just wrong. +Accepting Your Shortcomings: When you see another man please your wife in ways you never can, you become very aware of your shortcomings. Along with becoming aware of your shortcomings, you become keenly aware of the talents and blessings bestowed upon other men. Cuckolds realize it's pointless striving to become someone you're not. To maintain a facade over time is exhausting and strips you of your authentic self. You are who and what you are. And cuckolding is a way of helping you understand just where you stand. +Taboo: ""Who would have thought that my beautiful, church-going, subservient wife of more than 25 years would be excited about my cuckolding fantasy. Yes, she is church-going and PTA-attending, a doting soccer mom, educated, professional, and the sweet and innocent lady next door who no one would ever suspect had a deep craving to experience new, different, and varied sexual experiences with other men of all ages and races?"" +For some, nothing titillates like the taboo. Doing the impermissible can lend itself to some of the best sex ever. For many cuckold couples, ""it feels so good to be so bad."" In cuckolding, the wife's sexual activity with others is seen as more rewarding. For some reason, it is considered taboo to be more fulfilled by giving than by the pleasure of receiving. +Watching: Ask most any cuckold and they will tell you that there is nothing quite like seeing your wife in the throes of passion with another man or other men. When a wife cuckolds her husband, he gets to see his wife become the woman he always knew she was and could be. She's hot, sexy, and lustful. She's desired and desirable. She becomes her husband's favorite porn star. +What's In It for Women? +1\. A stronger bond between the primary couple. Many couples report strong feelings of unity and connection after starting to practice cuckolding. Many also report having more appreciation for each other and better communication in their intimate relationship. This often leads to a renewed sense of trust, closeness, and togetherness, all of which are hugely beneficial for the long- term health of the relationship. +2\. More exciting sex between the cuckold and his female partner. Most couples who practice cuckolding have been together for a long time, often 10 years or longer. For them, cuckolding breathes new and exciting life into a relationship that, while loving and committed, may feel a bit boring and stale. The voyeuristic and taboo nature of cuckolding, combined with kink and BDSM for some couples, can open endless possibilities for exciting, titillating, and highly satisfying sexual experiences. +3\. Greater sexual satisfaction for the female partner. Women who successfully engage in cuckolding overwhelmingly report feeling more sexually fulfilled and satisfied than ever before. Variety is the spice of life, and cuckolding offers ample opportunity for women to enjoy a wide selection of enthusiastic sexual partners. +Some of these men (also called ""bulls"") may provide particular sexual skills that these women's primary partners do not possess; or they may fulfill additional sexual fantasies and desires, like being dominated, or having sex with a man with a substantially larger penis. No matter the specifics, women who engage in cuckolding get access to more frequent, enthusiastic, and satisfying sex. +4\. Increased empowerment and confidence. When done right, cuckolding can be incredibly empowering to a woman. While our society still struggles with the idea of women enjoying sex for its own sake, a hotwife or cuckoldress has the freedom to enjoy sexual pleasure with a variety of eager partners. And while popular media still perpetuates the myth of a macho alpha male surrounded by a gaggle of besotted and passive women, in a cuckold dynamic it's the woman who has her pick of virile and sexually interested men. Talk about an ego boost! +The positive impact of this newfound confidence potentially extends further than the woman herself. Her cuckold partner also reaps the benefits of a woman who is assertive, voracious, and unapologetically sexy: all the qualities that make sex with her so much more exciting and pleasurable afterward. +Cuckolding may not be for everyone, but for those who involve themselves in cuckolding, most can't imagine living any other way." +581,Incredible Blow Jobs,mstwistedangel,How To,2009-07-24,2009-07-24,2022-01-04 08:35:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/incredible-blow-jobs,A simple read on how to do incredible blow jobs.,"['Blowjob Advice', 'Blowjob How-To', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Oral Sex How- To', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",4.31,"Most women *claim* they know how to suck cock really well. As a woman, I KNOW I like to know I'm giving my partner what he wants, and through trial and error, as well as many conversations with me I have come up with what most men agree are the perfect behaviors for a woman performing fellatio. +First and foremost, take the time to appreciate and enjoy a man's penis, it's a beautiful piece of anatomy, the skin is incredibly soft and sensitive, the shape, the feel of it in your hand, the soft texture of the head against your tongue. Appreciate how sensitive the head of his penis is and enjoy his desire to share that part of himself with you. +Most women think ""I'm giving myself to him"" but they don't stop to think that MEN are giving themselves to us also. Appreciate that. Yes, men tend to have more partners than women, but that doesn't negate the fact that he is still giving himself to you and TRUSTING you to have his very sensitive cock in your mouth with your very sharp teeth! Once you realize that most men are very sensitive about their size and shape in relation to other men, then and only then, you can really learn how to give a good blow job. +1\. Be in the mood to please him orally. If you aren't really into it, he's going to know and it's going to diminish his experience. As much as you want him to WANT to eat your pussy, he wants you to want to suck his cock. +2\. Take your time; get into a comfortable position where you can get the best angle with his cock. Make sure you're in a good angle for the particular man by seeing if you can deep throat it from the first position you chose. If you can't, rearrange yourself! Men appreciate your desire to move yourself into the right position to please HIM. Just as much as they move around when they are reciprocating. Some women can't deep throat a larger cock and that's ok with men, they know it and love that you are willing to try!! +3\. Once you find that right position, give him a quick suck, gently, draw your mouth slowly down his shaft as far as you can without gagging yourself, and then slowly come back up. Place your hand around the shaft gently and hold it in place while you give him a cute, coy grin. Let him know you are enjoying him! No matter how big a man's ego, he needs to be reminded he's wanted and that you LIKE his cock. +4\. Ladies, really, if they wanted you to stroke them off, they would ask you to just stroke them off. Men want to feel your mouth, not your hands, sliding up and down their shaft. A little stroking by hand is ok, but don't focus on the hand job, focus on using your mouth. You may find having a hand around the base of his shaft helps you, but you still have a spare hand. Run your hand up his tummy to his chest, down his thigh, sometimes even grabbing his ass with your spare hand will excite him, as if you are pulling his hips towards your mouth. +5\. Change things up, tighten your lips around his cock, loosen them, as you pull the cock to the edge of your lips, run your tongue around the tip of his cock, look up at him, and make eye contact. Then slide your mouth back down and take his cock as deeply into your mouth as you can. Don't just repeat the same actions over and over again. We like it when they change things up and they like it when we do the same thing. MAKE EYE CONTACT OFTEN. It's a complete turn on for a man to see you looking up at him while his cock is in your mouth!! +6\. DON'T GAG YOURSELF!! Men (unless they are into BDSM) don't like the sound of a woman gagging on their cock. It's not sexy, it's not a turn on and it makes them feel bad. You do not want to ruin his mood by gagging yourself. If you push yourself a little too far and do gag a little, pull yourself back and give him a little shrug, as if to say ""oops."" Make sure he knows it was you, not him that caused it. Men don't really like to hurt their partners (again, unless you're into beds). +7\. Stroke, suck, lick and pay attention to his scrotum also. Don't focus solely on the cock, there are other very sensitive parts of the male anatomy, if you KNOW he likes you to suck on his balls, do it. Really, you're already down there so what's the difference? Now, if your jaw is getting sore, pull your mouth away and kiss his tummy, nibble a little, slide up his body allowing your bare chest to rub against his and kiss him, push your tongue hard into his mouth, be aggressive. Men LOVE this. As much as they normally like to have a degree of control (even non BDSM types), they also love a woman who can get a little aggressive. TALK TO HIM, TELL HIM YOU LOVE SUCKING HIS BIG STIFF COCK as you slide back down and take his cock back into your mouth. +8\. Not all women enjoy the feeling of a man cumming in their mouth, but, men LOVE this. It is an incredible degree of intimacy to have him orgasm in your mouth. Swallow, seriously....men LOVE it! It isn't going to hurt you or make you sick, it's not bad for you and it makes him feel incredible. Men are trained from a young age to think cumming on a woman's body is so ""hot,"" but in all truth, they would rather enjoy the feeling of cumming in your mouth and you swallowing it. +I can't give you exact details on how to give the right blow job to every man you may come across, but I guarantee that if you follow these simple rules you will find your partner will LOVE the attention you are paying to his cock and he will KNOW you are enjoying him. Keep his ego strong and make sure he knows you love pleasuring him as much as he loves pleasuring you!!" +582,Instructions for My Boyfriend,BeautyInDarkness,How To,2003-03-30,2003-03-30,2022-01-04 08:35:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/instructions-for-my-boyfriend,This is what I would tell my boyfriend if I had the guts.,"['Body Start', 'Close Cumming', 'Cumming Stop', 'Hard Fast', 'Inside Bad', 'Part Body', 'Thrust Hard', 'Thrust Inside']",4.63,"I know you love me, which is why I finally feel comfortable telling you what I want. It’s not so much that you’re doing anything wrong, but I’m too shy to tell you what I really want. There are things I want, things that turn me on, that I’ve always hoped you would do to me, so let me give you some direction. +First of all, I’m submissive, I want you to handcuff me, tie me up, and do anything to restrain me. Handcuff my hands above my head, and tie my legs to the bedposts, so that I can’t effectively move any part of my body. Start by just looking at my naked body, let your eyes linger where you want them to. The fact that you think I’m beautiful makes me wet. +Next I want you to focus just on my skin. Run your hands or some soft fur, fabric, or feathers down my body. Let your fingers linger, but not stop on the most sensitive parts of me: my neck, stomach, hips, and calves. Just let me feel your flesh graze down my ribcage, across my breasts, and down my waist. Now let me feel a little more. Gently scratch or graze my skin with your nails, run your long hair across my body, kiss the softest parts of me, make me quiver. +Start to bite me. Bite me on my neck, hard. Don’t be afraid to hurt me, a little pain is a good thing. Run your tongue along my collarbone, then down between my breasts, and let it flick across my stomach until you reach my hips. Leave soft, wet, lingering kisses on my hips, lick across my inner thighs, and down my legs. Touch and lick the back of my knees. Make me gasp, and squirm. Don’t ignore any part of my body. +Now start to make me want you inside me. Rub your fingers, or your cock against my opening, by now I’m sure to be wet. Don’t penetrate yet, don’t touch my clit, just make me suffer. Bite and kiss and lick my neck, and my breasts while you rub yourself against me. With one hand, grab the hair at the back of my neck and force my head backwards, so you can restrain me, and kiss my throat more easily. If I have enough slack to move my hips, and thrust against your hard member, I will. But don’t let me have you yet. The longer you wait to push yourself inside me, the wilder I’ll get. +I’ll start to struggle in earnest. I want you, I want to free my body and jump on top of you, and force your hard cock inside me. I want it so bad I could scream. Hold my hands down to make sure I don’t get free. After your done torturing me, if you think I need it bad enough, thrust yourself inside me with one hard sure stroke. +Start thrusting inside me, slowly. Every backstroke pull yourself out to the tip, and when you thrust back inside me push yourself in to the hilt. As I start to get close to cumming stop thrusting deep, and just pump the tip of your cock in and out of my wet hole. When I start to go wild, start to moan, start to cry out in frustration, start pumping yourself into me hard, and fast. Whatever you do, DON’T STOP. Right before I’m about to cum, pull out, and don’t touch me for about 30 seconds. I’ll scream at you, I’ll curse at you, but this is the way I want it: to be completely at your mercy, for my pleasure to be totally dependent on your whim. +Go down on me. Lick your way down my stomach, and lick past my vagina to my inner thighs. Let your tongue play around cunt, licking to the left, and right, but not inside, not yet. Slide your hands under my ass and grope me. Lick up towards my clit, and when you get there, lick, and nibble, and suck. Don’t put your tongue inside me, make me wait and yearn for your dick. When you get me close to cumming, stop, and don’t touch me for a few seconds. +Now, fuck me. Thrust yourself inside me and fuck me hard and fast. Grab me by the hips and pull me down to meet your every thrust. When you’ve got me close to cumming, pull out, and free my legs. Grab my ankles, and put my legs over your shoulders. Thrust into me as hard and as fast as you can. See how many times you can get me to cum before you shoot your load deep inside me. +This is what I want from you. It’s too bad I’m too pussy to actually give you these instructions. Since I can’t give them to you, I’ll give them to the world, and hope that some woman will get her fantasy fulfilled." +583,Internet Romance for Beginners,BatsandGlamour,How To,2003-04-29,2003-04-29,2022-01-04 08:35:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/internet-romance-for-beginners,Reach out and touch yourself.,"['Computer Screen', 'Fall Love', 'Harmless Fun', 'Internet', 'Real Life', 'Real Sex', 'Sex Talk', 'Son Named', 'Thing Real']",4.59,"_Note: When I talk about internet romance, I’m not referring to pay sites of any kind. I’m talking about consenting adults who ""meet"" on the internet, communicate on the internet and perhaps ultimately by phone or in person, and have an entire cyber relationship on the internet not for money, but for the pure pleasure and excitement of it._ +""Are you hot?"" +""Yes."" +""Are you wet?"" +""God, yes."" +""Do you want me?"" +""More than anything in the world right now…"" +""What do you want me to do?"" +""I want you to lick my pussy.

I want you to rub it off onto your fingers and lick it all off…"" +""God, I’m cumming so hard…I can’t stand it…ooooooohhhhhh…"" +What you’ve just read is not the dialog from a mid-day soap opera or the next Reese Witherspoon romance comedy. It is the words being typed by a guy holding his cock, stroking it gently in between his fingers while his eyes water from what he’s reading and writing. +It’s cybersex – internet romance. +Never mind that he’s in Florida and she’s in Arizona, or Nebraska, or England. These two people are having sex the new, modern way, over the computer screen. There’s no _real_ sex, no _real_ swapping of fluids. You can’t hear the sound of his balls slapping against her ass as he gives her the doggie style pounding that her husband won’t, or the true feel of his tongue lapping her juices until she tightens up and her eyes roll back in her head – just the thing her real lover would _never_ do. He can’t look into her eyes while she sticks her tongue out further, further, until it reaches his throbbing cock head, or watch her face as she masturbates just for him – activities his ""proper"" wife would never allow him to even consider. But here, on the internet, they can have it all. For free. +Sound good? +Well…it _can_ be. As long as you know what you’re in for from the beginning. And, aren’t you the lucky reader, I’m just the writer to tell you! That’s right, you’ve got questions and I’ve got answers. Of course the big one is: + **What exactly is an internet romance?** +Internet romance is different things to different people. This is not a cop out, it’s just my perspective. To one person an internet romance may be a high tech pen-pal, someone to share feelings and poems, describe sunsets and dinners out. A little extra something away from the real world of bills and traffic. Beautiful. For others, internet romance is a suggestive word here and there to spice things up. A few double entendre’s in an otherwise fairly conventional exchange with a friend, coworker, etc. In a word – flirting. Harmless but fun. Next step on the boner scale is the kind of letters that make a man strain his boxers and a women squirm in her seat. The kind of letters that clearly spell out what you’d like to do and how you’d like to do it, complete with descriptions of hard, throbbing cocks and moist, swollen pussies. Now we’re getting somewhere. +Stage four is serious internet romance – cybersex. This is where in email or real-time instant messaging, two people are having nearly real sex. Touching themselves, stroking and rubbing, perhaps even dressed for the occasion like a real date, they can nearly feel the person breathing, smell their passion and feel their warmth as they describe what they are doing and feeling. Hot? Hell yes! The kicker is that some of these people are individuals who in real life would never dream of acting this way. But isn’t that the beauty of it? A button-down executive describing how he’d like to be tied up and dominated. A librarian-type gal confessing her love for anal sex, double penetration and threesomes. It may be your next door neighbor. It could be your _spouse_. Or it could be someone on another continent. _Global_ cybersex. +Stage five, sometimes interspersed with stage four is when you take the sexplay to the phone. When she begs you, ""Please…call me…let me hear your voice…make me cum baby, please…I need you to hear me cum…"" The only thing more real than this is actual sex, which is another article entirely. This brings me to your next logical question: + **Wow! Where do I find someone to do this?** +Good question. I’m sure there are far more avenues than I’m aware of, excluding of course someone from work or college. There are personals in many places on the iternet, but I’m not sure how many are for cybersex seekers alone, and therefore my best suggestion is, shocking discovery here – literotica. After all, who visits this site – bible students? (My apologies to any and all bible students reading this article, glad to have you). Literotica readers are adults who enjoy hearing about and writing about sexual escapades and is therefore an outstanding venue for finding those who do the same. Look at the bulletin board and sign up for live chat. They should get your motor running. +There’s another way, too. +When you read a story that lets you connect somehow with the author, drop them a line and let them know. It may be something as simple as ""liked your story, thanks,"" or can include half your life story. We like reading them, believe me. It’s not that difficult to get a dialog going with the some authors, and who knows what can happen. No guarantees, but who knows? You wouldn’t believe some of the letters of feedback I get. Really. Some of these people write better than I do. Some of them like sex more than I do. OK, I take that one back. Don’t be so gullible. The only time I _don’t_ take the time to answer feedback is when it’s from someone underage. I don’t want to get myself or the site in trouble. They’ll find their answer eventually anyway, I hope. But these are some of the places to begin internet relationships, just be careful because: + **Internet romance can be addicting!** +Real life has a way of taking a back seat to fantasy. I suspect it’s always been that way. When you’ve got someone on line who likes sex as much as you do, loves the things you say, describes things that blow your mind and make you want to cum over and over while you uncontrollably rub your…oh excuse me, did it again. What I mean is that it’s hard to get back in bed with your snoring husband or flannel pajama-clad wife and not feel incredibly frustrated. You’d do anything to get back on line with your pal and talk about wet blowjobs and how you’d like to bend her over the kitchen sink and pound her like a B-52 bomber. Real life just can’t compare, can it? But real life is where you’re living my friends, so you have to temper your enthusiasm. Before you know it, you can be giving up dinners out with your friends to be on the computer. Violating company policies by logging on again and again to see what your ""friend"" has written. Putting off some very important things just to ""be with them"" online. Again, reality is faint competition for a computer screen that says ""I’m wet."" So have fun, sure, but be aware that: + **You can fall in love over the internet** +Oh yes you can! Whether or not you send photos or ever hear that person’s voice, you can fall in love with the person on the other end of that keyboard out there somewhere. You don’t doubt it, do you? How do you think romance writers make a living? Their readers fall in love with the characters they’re writing about. +The person you’re having cybersex with is just as much a fictional character, though you may swear with complete conviction that you know them. They’re a fantasy partly created by themselves and partly by what they sense you love and need them to be. In truth, anyone can create a characterization of themselves that’s totally plausible yet completely false. This is at once the danger as well as the excitement. He may be 28 years old, 6’2"" with blue eyes and a muscular build, or he may be 60 years old with gray hair and a hearing aid. Do you know? Oh, you’ve got a photo? Well, that _must_ be real. And the photo of her in the bikini is gorgeous. It may also be 20 years old. +That fact is that it really doesn’t matter as long as you’re getting off on it. But when it becomes more than that, when it takes over your thinking until this relationship becomes as important or more than your flesh and blood ones, you’re going to find out that: + **You can get your heart broken** +The reasons are too many to enumerate but I will tell you this with almost complete certainty: _It’s going to end_. No matter how great it is, I _promise you_ that it’s going to end. Yes, sooner or later the sex talk will die down and that’s when the husbands and wives, bills and jobs, health and work start to enter into the conversations. This is the beginning of the end because fantasies don’t contain these elements. It may end all at once, with a definite cut in communications. They change their screen name and you have no way to get in touch with them ever again, or it peters out, from 20 times a day to 10 to 5 to every week or two, down to nothing. Chances are, they found another internet love and a new honeymoon is taking place. Long term internet relationships are very rare. My advice, as you may have guessed, it not to invest _too_ much of your heart in an online relationship. It just doesn’t have the ""legs"" that a real one does. And since relationships don’t always end mutually, whatever you do: + **Don’t reveal too much personal information** +This really applies to married men and women. If you’re single, and especially if you’re not in a dedicated relationship, it doesn’t matter as much unless you have a career that you truly must guard, Congressman. School principal. Police officer. Rabbi. But if you’re married, you don’t want a knock on your door one afternoon, that when your child answers it, the person on the other side of the door says, ""Hi, is your daddy home? I’m his friend Kyla from Milwaukee."" Oh yeah, I can see you cringing at the thought. Broken hearts and overwhelming desire can lead to some pretty desperate acts. Do yourself a favor, a BIG one. Don’t give your real last name to _anyone_ at _any time_. Don’t give the city you live in, or the name of your employer. Keep the names of your wife and kids out of conversations. Never call from your home phone or any phone without first dialing *67 to disable caller ID. Do you think I’m being overly cautious? Then you have no idea how much information you can get about someone on the internet with just a name and town, or just a phone number. You’re Cindy from New York – there must be hundreds or thousands. But how many have a husband named Greg? How many have a husband named Greg _and_ a son named Tommy? How many have a husband named Greg, A son named Tommy, a golden retriever and drive a silver Dodge Durango? And the noose tightens. If you’re not careful, you _can_ be found. Easily. +Let’s take a break a moment. I’ve been giving you a head full of warnings and caveats, but that’s only part of the story, consider this: +""I made love to her last night…want to hear about it?"" +""Yes, please…tell me about it."" +""‘Please baby, make me cum’…she begged me…’I need to cum so bad…’ So I held her wrists above her head and kissed her lips softy…working my tongue inside until our tongues met and dueled first in her mouth, then in mine…"" +""That’s so hot…please go on."" +""I kissed down her neck, my hands moved over her tits to cup them and rub her nipples. They got so hard and stiff. I moved my mouth down and placed it over her nipple, then ran my tongue around her aureole, stopping to lightly bite on her nipple. Then I switched tits, as she began to shake…her legs starting to quiver and her breathing uneven."" +""Oh God…more…"" +""She moaned to me, ‘mmm…feels so good…mmm,’ as I kissed my way down her stomach. She rolled over on her side and I licked her lower back…it’s such an erogenous zone. I kissed it as I lightly ran my fingers along her tummy. Her legs were twitching and I could smell the sex juices beginning to seep from her…Then I held her ass cheeks apart and licked from the top of the crack all the way to her pussy, getting it soaking wet…"" +""Her asshole…"" +""Was all wet for me. She was moaning louder now, ‘lick my cunt honey…eat me…please eat me…’ So I rolled her over and lapped at her sweet pussy. Her hands were on her breasts, her fingers pinching her nipples and tugging on them…I spread her swollen pussy lips with my thumbs and stuck my tongue in her hot, open hole…"" +""Oh my God…you’re making me so…I have to touch myself…"" +""I sucked her pussy lips, rubbing around her clit in small circles. Then I moved my tongue to it and made figure eights around it. Her clit was as hard as a marble…Her hips were nearly coming off the bed. I took one finger out and put it in her mouth. She sucked it hard, like a baby with a pacifier, and gasped as she tasted her own juices…"" +""Uhh…mmm…gggg…"" +""I knew that she was close. I began to rub the outside of her asshole now, as she drove her pussy into my face harder and harder. As she neared cumming, I took that one finger and eased in into her asshole, which opened up as if to swallow it. I sank my finger in about an inch…her eyes just rolled back in her head as her climax hit her hard. Her hips were bucking and she was jabbering something I could not understand – orgasm talk…Her body stiffened like a board and she came and came…"" +""Ohhhhhh….."" +Yeah, it can be like that, too. And it’s so hot, so enticing that you may find yourself asking, + **Can it go from internet to real life?** +Well of course it can, if you want. This is the most mobile age known to man. If you want to go somewhere, you can find a way to get there – period. I’ll take it one step further. +I think that in all likelihood, the possibility - just the chance - that the relationship can go from computer screen to bedroom or motel room is what drives the fantasy. Think about it. If you know for a fact that the sex can never under _any_ circumstances become a reality, it may have a sobering effect on the parties involved. Not always, of course. For some people, this safety of anonymity may release even more inhibitions, since no danger of being caught, getting an STD or ruining a marriage or relationship exists. +But for others, the opportunity to meet and actually have the wild sex you’ve been engaging in over the internet and perhaps phone – no matter how small the actual chance – fuels the fire even more. Should you do it? It’s not for me to say, not knowing your particular situation. But you should consider this: +You know this person – intimately. It’s going to be weird at first; prepare for that fact. Will you like the way they look and sound? Will you be able to act natural. _Will your mutually strong sexuality translate to real life?_ You’ll never know until you try. Some people may say, ""why risk it?"" if you’re really enjoying the cybersex. Others may say that unless you _do_ try, you’ll be sorry later. The cybersex will end eventually and you’ll never have known how great it could have been. One time or regularly. +These are the issues that are purely personal. If you are single, sexually motivated and computer savy, you can have yourself one hell of a time. And it can, if you both want and the situation allows, become a real life experience. +If you’re married and want to stay that way, internet romance – which may take the form of light flirting all the way to the heavy cybersex we discussed, can be a guilty pleasure and frustration reliever. Or frustration enhancer, depending on you. In other words, it can help take the place and relieve the stress of the satisfying sex you’re not getting at home, which is good. Or it can just underscore that there are people out there just like you, who love sex and sexuality in all its permutations. They love to talk about sex, to talk dirty about what they want, to look at porn, read stories, use sex toys, everything you’d like to do and more. In short, they are the furthest thing in the world from your spouse. Ouch. Reality can surely suck. + If you let it get out of hand though, or make it real, then there are going to be consequences, unless you’re married to Hillary Clinton. And oh yes, if you get ""caught"" in your cybersex relationship, perhaps with an un-deleted email, an unplanned intrusion into your computer area, maybe even suspicious behavior - your spouse will most likely NOT consider it to be harmless fun. +Now it’s up to you, my friends. I would love to hear about your adventures and experiences in cybersex. It may make for a good follow up article. More important, it may make me _hot_. And if you have any questions or want an opinion, Email me.

The dance can be adapted with ease to suit a male/ male or a female/ female couple. The instructions found within do not have to be followed step by step; they are only hints and suggestions._ +A big Thank you to Sophia Jane for the wonderful edit. This piece wouldn't have been half of what it is without your outstanding effort and suggestions for improvement. +* +Imagine slick skin sliding together as two people stand under the hot, pulsing spray of a thousand aquatic fingers massaging away the tension of the day...heaven. Add the erotic touch of human hands kneading, caressing and rubbing intimate regions and what you have is a recipe designed for explosion. +Unlike the fantasy, bathing is an everyday necessity that most people don't put a lot of thought into. However, it can be one of the most arousing, intimate experiences a couple incorporates into their relationship. The main focus of a couple's shower is not sexual; instead it should be sensual. +Increasing the level of intimacy by showering together and focusing on the erotic can open the door to new ideas. Heightening the senses can intensify the sexual encounter that may follow. The possibilities are endless. +The key to the ultimate experience is communication, whether verbal or non- verbal, a willingness to try new things, and an open mind. +Pre-shower preparation: +Have a selection of scented shower gels or soap on hand. Bath and body stores have hundreds of scents available. Choosing the right scent is an important decision the couple needs to make together. Some scents may be repulsive to one person; while others may be so arousing it's a race to get out the door before carnal lust takes over and the animal is unleashed in the middle of the mall. +A good bath pouf, loofah or bath mitt is an excellent accessory to add and can also be found at a bath and body store. Any of those accessories will allow the application of the shower gel or soap with the added benefit of exfoliation. Of course, a washcloth or sponge will work just as well. Have an array of accessories available. Alternating between the rough texture of a loofah, for instance, and the softer texture of hands or a cloth can be an incredible turn on. +Good shampoo and conditioner in the couple's favorite scent are a must. To qualify as good, it has to lather well and rinse out clean. This should be a given, but it isn't. There are a lot of shampoos and conditioners on the market that lather as well as straight water and wouldn't come out with Borax. +If the couple is so inclined, and the hot water is sufficient, a new razor for the woman is a good choice. Complete trust in the partner is required for shaving any area. Some couples choose to use a beard trimmer and electric razor on the pubic mound, prior to showering, but it's a personal preference. +For added atmosphere, choose some scented candles to arrange around the bathroom and bedroom. It is essential that the candles be positioned in the appropriate places to prevent accidental fire. The dim light created by the candles can enhance the feel of intimacy. +Soft, romantic music to play in the background is also an option. As with any electronic device, however, keep it clear of the water. +The choreographed water dance: +Start with a water temperature suited to both parties. Too cold or too hot for either one can be distracting, to say the least. +Holding one another close, both standing sideways to the spray, and kissing is a superb way to get the ball rolling. Both should take this opportunity to assist the other in wetting their hair, if they have any, by reaching up with their hands and, with very gentle pressure, pushing the hair back from the face. +Monsieur: +Rotate your partner out of the direct spray. Every movement into and out of the water should feel like you are dancing with your partner. Communicate. Tell her which way you want her to go; show her with gentle pressure from your hands. +Squeeze a small amount of shampoo into the palm of your hand. For shoulder length hair or shorter it shouldn't take more than a dime-sized amount. For longer hair no more than a quarter-sized amount. (Waist length hair may require a bit more.) Using such a small quantity is the beauty of 'good' shampoo. Rub the palms of your hands together, just enough to get shampoo on both hands, lift the hair off her neck and place it on top of her head. This provides a good opportunity to kiss her neck and shoulders. Lather the shampoo into the length of her hair, being careful not to get soap in her eyes. When you have worked up a good lather, use your fingertips to massage her scalp, all the way around her hairline, as well as the top of her head and neck. Drop tiny kisses on her earlobes and shoulders. Take your time; this isn't a race. +Rinsing can be tricky; get her to assist you to avoid a loss of balance. With her back to the water, tip her head back until her hairline is under the spray, but with her forehead out of it. Use your hands to work the shampoo out of her hair, being careful not to press too hard and pull her hair. Her hair is rinsed when the water runs clear and you no longer see soap bubbles. +Coax her out of the direct spray once again. You have the opportunity, since she is still facing you, to drop unexpected kisses all over her face, as you condition her hair. Squeeze about a quarter-sized amount of conditioner into the palm of your hand and rub your hands together. This time the application begins with the bottom strands and works upward. The purpose is to keep the concentration of conditioner at the scalp from being too heavy, which creates a greasy look when dry. +Massage the conditioner in, using moderate pressure. Your goal is her pleasure and a scalp massage is pure heaven. Use the tips of your fingers and knead her entire scalp. Make the massage last a couple of minutes. Not only will her hair be soft and luxurious, she'll be putty in your hands. When you are finished massaging, rinse again. It's not as obvious this time when her hair is rinsed; have her help you. Once her hair is rinsed, move her out of the cascading water, turn her so her back is facing you and kiss her neck. +To keep things simple, I chose to use the shower gel and bath pouf as an example. Any combination of soap and accessory is fine. It's up to the couple to choose what is right for them. Again, alternating between the choices can be an incredible turn on. +Squeeze the chosen gel onto the pouf and begin lathering at the base of her neck. The beautiful thing about a pouf is it has its own handle. Slip your thumb through the loop of the pouf. Work the pouf over her left shoulder and down her arm. It only requires one hand to use a pouf, but don't let the other hand idle. Meander along the soapy path you just created; tantalize, tease and stimulate her. Clear a spot for your lips and brush them against her skin in various places. +When you get to her hand, stop and work your way back up. (Concentration on the hands themselves comes later.) Repeat with the right shoulder and arm. Stop again at the hand and return to the neck. Lather her back, and then let the pouf drop. It doesn't go far, since the loop is around your thumb. With your bare hands, massage the lather into her skin, following the same pattern you used with the pouf. Alternate between moderate pressure and light, teasing strokes. +With the pouf, begin again at the small of her back. Draw light circles over her buttocks. Remember, you do have two hands. Slip the pouf between her buttocks, being careful not to press too hard or too far. Soap the backs of her legs, alternating in such a manner that the pouf never loses contact with her body. Let the pouf drop once more and let your hands journey where the pouf once was. Slide your fingers between her buttocks and graze her rectum with your fingers. Communicate with your partner; if she finds this arousing she should let you know; listen to her words as well as her body. +If she does find it arousing, tease her rectum a little before you insert one, and only one, finger inside. Go slow, although soap is a good lubricant, this can be painful for someone who isn't use to it or isn't ready for it. Keep in mind, however, this dance is intended to be erotic and sensual, not sexual; you aren't looking to get her off, just heighten her senses. +If she doesn't find it arousing, or isn't ready to try it, move on to the rest of the dance. +Knead her buttocks in a gentle manner; the muscles can be quite sensitive. Place one hand on each cheek and work your way down each leg. Increase the intimacy of this action by brushing your thumbs along the insides of her thighs, near her labia. +When you get to her feet, lift them, one at a time, of course, and massage the soles. Wash in between each toe; some women find this very erotic. Help her rinse the bottom of her feet before setting them back down, you don't want her to slip and fall. +With firm, but still gentle pressure, slide your hands up the back of her legs as you stand. Move your hands up her back to her shoulders and encourage her to turn around to face you. Hold her head in your hands with your thumbs caressing her cheeks. Kiss her on the lips. Back off the kiss, just a bit, and allow your breath to caress her lips. Don't kiss her, don't blow air into her face; just breathe. If she leans closer to kiss you, back off a little. If she backs away, move a little closer. Maintain the barest contact. Take your time, and hold your position; anticipation is sensual. Reward her patience with a single, deep kiss designed to steal her breath. +Next, concentrate on the front of her body, using the same methods. Soap her arms once more, and her chest, easy on the nipples because they may be sensitive. Remember, big guy, you have two hands and you have lips. Instinct should tell you when to use them. +Slip the loop of the pouf over your wrist and lift her right hand. With firm but gentle pressure, rub your thumbs against the back of her hand in small, steady circles. Mimic the circles with your fingers on the palm of her hand at the same time. Massage each individual finger, and then her thumb. Turn her hand over and kiss her wrists. Pulse points are erogenous zones. Draw the same circles on the palms of her hands, your fingers on the backs of her hands now. Massage each individual finger; be thorough. Repeat for her left hand. +Slide your hands up each arm to her shoulders. With splayed fingers and flat palms, glide your hands over her breasts. Lift them and give them a gentle squeeze. Continue over her abdomen and then up her sides to her armpits. This is an area sometimes considered taboo, but often found arousing by men and women alike. Try different touches and listen to your partner. If nothing else, you'll know it's clean. From the armpits, make the journey to the breasts once more. Draw circles in a diminishing spiral around the breasts and nipples. Tweak each nipple in turn and reposition the pouf to continue the bathing process. +Place the pouf on her abdomen and soap your way down. Lather the pubis and tops of the legs well; it will come in handy later. Finish lathering both of her legs, down to her feet. You should be in a kneeling position. Lift each foot and massage it again, giving her toes special, individual attention. Follow your instinct here, it may be screaming for you to kiss the insides of her thighs. Make sure the soap is rinsed before setting her foot down. Set the pouf aside. +Slide your hands up her legs, brushing your thumbs against her labia as you reach the top. Massage her inner thighs, making feather light contact with her labia, enough to arouse, but not enough to satisfy. Move one hand to the small of her back and use the other hand to massage her pubic mound. Slip one finger between the lips of her labia and across her clitoris; don't press too hard. Release when you get to her vaginal opening. Return to the top of her clitoris and run two fingers, splayed in the shape of a v, alongside her clitoris. Release. +Place both hands on her hips and slide your hands up her body, over her breasts and cup her head in your hands. Breathe on her lips for a few seconds before you kiss her. Trail kisses down her chin and neck. Take your time. Sensuous is slow. Gather her earlobe between your lips and pull your lips inward; gentle now, this should resemble a small tug. Place your mouth next to her ear and inhale, slow and steady. Kiss her eyelids. Kiss her forehead. Kiss her nose. Massage her cheeks, alternating your fingertips and thumbs. Massage her chin, her lips. Massage her earlobes and the back of her neck. +Give her a deep kiss. Maneuver her into the stream of water for her final rinse and wait for payback. +To be fair, if you run out of hot water before you get your turn under the pouf, you should go first the next time. +Payback is heaven: +Now it's your turn, m'lady. Your body is humming, he is aroused and now it's time to take it to the next level of sensation. He needs to be out of the direct spray of water and he may need to assist you in reaching his head, depending on his height. +If he has hair, use a dime-sized amount of shampoo in the palm of your hand and lather it up. If he doesn't, use a pea-sized amount. If he has long, thick hair you may need a bit more than the dime-sized amount, but not much. Your fingers are a wonderful, tantalizing tool; use them. Knead his scalp. If you have long nails, don't scratch, tickle. You know how much you love a scalp massage; show him why. Rinse, being careful not to get soap in his eyes and ruining the mood. +I don't wish to be repetitive, so all I will say is: what he just did for you, you should do for him. Yes, that even includes playing with and inserting a finger in his rectum, if you both choose to. If either of you decline this part of the dance, don't participate; it's that simple. +His nipples can be as sensitive as yours, so take care to listen to his body as well as his words. If he can't handle the sensation, back off. If he's asking for more, have fun. +Tease his scrotum, testicles and penis. Clean them, massage them, and in general arouse him with sensation. Remember that the purpose of the dance is to be erotic and sensual, not sexual. You are heightening awareness and sensation, not getting him off. +Massage his face, love his body, arouse his senses, you won't regret learning the steps."" +Finale: +Once the cleansing is complete and the water has been doused, step out of the shower and dry each other off. Don't rub too hard. Brisk, even strokes with the towel serve to heighten sensations further. Dry the crevices too; they often get overlooked. An alternative to the brisk rubdown is to pat each other dry. Patting allows for a tender, loving moment and is suggested by some dermatologists to help keep some of the skin's moisture. +A couple, at this point, has the perfect opportunity to relax and enjoy their partner's body. A good lotion or massage oil can replace the moisture skin loses with soap. Applying it to a partner's body, rather than to their own, allows the chance to map erogenous zones. Massaging the human body can be erotic, for both people. +A relaxed atmosphere may also lead to the sharing of desires and fantasies or to a willingness to try new ideas. It's up to the individual couple to decide where to take the experience from here. +An intimate bathing experience can happen anywhere. It isn't necessary to be in the shower. It can happen in the bathtub, or even in the bedroom. There's a lot to be said for a sponge bath, provided precautions are taken against creating a sloppy wet bed. +A choreographed water dance can be the spark required to spice up a love life that's grown a little dull. It may be just the beginning of a journey to trying new experiences, the ending of an era of the humdrum. Wherever the road leads, take to heart that communication is the key. A body speaks volumes, even when no words are forthcoming.

These are the basic tools that you need for a lot of different endeavors. Medical Play, anal play, putting new grips on your golf clubs, and replacing the washers on that leaky faucet are just some of the wonderful uses for these two tools. The one that we are going to discuss today is fisting, specifically vaginal fisting. +The art of vaginal fisting is one that is quite gratifying for the fistee in most cases. There are a lot of women out there that love the feeling of a well-stuffed pussy. +Yes Virginia, a whole hand will fit in your pussy with a little relaxation and time. Even if you're tighter than I am at tax time. For the women that are ""size queens"" this will be a most fulfilling walk in the park for you, although I don't suggest you try walking anywhere with a cunt full of fist. +As far as fisting goes, there is not a lot of experience involved with vaginal fisting. Anal fisting is a whole other ballgame. It is quite important to take your time, start slow, and work into things so to speak. +So where do we start? It helps to have a comfortable spot with lots of room for the fistee to be able to stretch out and relax. You want the fistee to be as relaxed as possible. I was recently involved in a situation that a friend of mine coined as a ""fist-fest"". There were several couples in the room with a number of fists in use. This was a truly hot experience. One thing that I think we lacked was plenty of room to stretch out and relax. Be sure that you can do this as it will make things a lot more pleasurable for both of you. +Next to relaxation is arousal. In order for the vagina to open well, the fistee needs to be aroused. If she has a favorite vibrator, tongue, or other type of stimulation that really rocks her world, it would be in your best interest to make use of whatever means necessary to get her juices flowing. I know that there are a lot of us Domly types out here that love to be in control and do as you please. Fisting is one of those areas where you are a lot better off listening to the fistee and letting them control the speed and depth. This will keep from having to explain to the Dr. later why you have tearing of the vagina. +Now to the juicy stuff: You should use lots of lubricant and wear gloves. I cannot stress enough that you cannot use too much lube. The lube should be water based. Guys, if you're going to fist your woman, trim your nails. You don't want to damage that delicate tissue that you so love to play with. (Just remember you can't play with your toys if you break them). Coat your entire hand with lube, lots of it. You can also add more as you go. +Start out using a finger or two and take it slow. As she relaxes, you can increase the number of fingers. You need to make your hand as small as you can. Tuck your thumb and make all of your fingers group so that your hand is as skinny as it can get. I have very large hands and have fisted a number of women successfully the first time they tried. When you have four fingers in and she is ready for you to proceed, then slowly push in, starting with your knuckles towards her ass. Slowly rotate your hand as you are gently, slowly pushing. The most difficult part of the whole process is getting past the knuckles of your hand. Lube, lube, and more lube. Have the fistee take slow, deep breaths and remind her that she should try to relax. If this is too much for her, then you should stop or back off a bit. +If she is ready to proceed, then you should be able to turn your wrist a little bit to get past the pubic bone. Once you do this, you are in like Flynn. Once inside, the hand will curl up on its own naturally. There are several things you can do once inside. +You should hold still for a moment while you both adjust from the sensation of what has occurred. Then you can move slowly in a rotating motion or move slowly in and out. Do not just start ramming it home once you're inside. Slow and easy till you know what she can handle. As you are fisting, she might start to contract. If she gets cunt contractions from hell, hang on for all you're worth but do not, DO NOT, pull out suddenly, you can damage muscle and tissue and make it bad for her. +During the Death Grip of the Cunt Monster, it can become quite uncomfortable for you as you feel like a vise is closing around your hand. If she is cumming, then this can feel like you're driving over your hand with a dump truck full of gravel. Trust me, I was not sure that I would have a hand when I pulled out of a couple of fistees. +When she cums........and she will cum, be prepared for the pussy grip of death, because it will happen. She might even flood the room. I have had fistees that had never squirted before in their life all of a sudden become Niagara falls with a bit of fist play. While she is cumming, let her push you out. This is the best way to disengage from the beast within. If you cannot handle the pain of your hand crushing anymore, let her know so that she can assist you in retrieving your hand from the digit destroyer. +Last but not least. Fisting can be quite an emotional ordeal for the fistee. The trust and closeness that is shared during the fisting is something that should carry over into aftercare. Be aware of your fistee and her feelings, which can run the whole scale from elation to depression and everything in between. +Provide a warm blanket and a quiet, safe, place for her to rest with you close by. Re-assure the fistee!!! Even if she is unable to take a fist the first, second, or any time at all you should make sure that she is aware that it is ok, and not her fault. Anatomy does not always give you a choice in the matter. Holding her, talking to her, allowing time to regroup are all ways to assure adequate aftercare. Make sure there is food and drink on hand as well. This should all be a part of most any scene in our lifestyle. +Fisters of the world, UNITE, FIST, and Conquer, One Cunt (and Ass) at a time!" +586,Intro to Ropes 101,Redstones,How To,2016-05-26,2016-05-26,2022-01-04 08:35:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/intro-to-ropes-101,A how to Introduce a Novice to Ropes.,"['Bdsm', 'Binding', 'Dom', 'Guide', 'How To', 'Ropes', 'Sub']",4.62,"The use of ropes or other binding devices can bring an exciting element into a sexual experience. Unfortunately most people don't know how to keep from scaring the shit out of a newcomer to the playfulness ropes provide. This is how I introduce the use of ropes to people that have never had the pleasure of trusting another enough to totally submit their bodies and minds for the mutual pleasure of themselves and another. This is not for the hard core BDSM Masters that can find a submissive to dominate, but it is for the experimenters of sexual fetishes that wish to include bondage as part of their play. +First and most important is think of who and what you want to do with the rope. Depending on what you are trying to accomplish and the body size of the person to be bound this is an important step. For starters don't be excited by the different colors of ropes available, that is secondary to function. What you do need is soft, cotton, woven, rope, roughly 3/8ths to ½ inch in width, and a minimum of 25 foot in length. Test the rope by gripping it firmly and pulling a stretch of it through your hand. It should not feel scratchy against your skin. +Once you have purchased the rope practice different knots and watch a couple of videos on your favorite porn site. You need to do this in private. Remember a novice will normally be very afraid of ropes unless they have a predestined curiosity about them. You don't want to scare the subject of your desires away so do not set your bed or wall up like a torture device with ropes and whips hung in neat order. The coil should be left in a drawer or under the bed with no preparations in the room other than having your normal toys visible, like condoms, vibrators, and lubricants. +Depending upon the relationship you have with the intended, the first meet should be one of non-committal verbal exploration. Find out what they think of bondage in general. Do not take a ""No Way!"" as a final answer. During the sexual encounter see if your partner is willing to engage in mind stimulation sex. Ask them to play a sex game with you where they are to grab the headboard and the rules are do not let go no matter what I do. If they do all play ends. +Once positioned have them close their eyes and lightly stroke their nude body. Start with just your fingertips. Do not grope or even touch the nipples or genitals area. Stroke around them with as light a touch as possible. A feather is very useful if you have one at this point. It also stimulates the mind as much as the body by using items they may not recognize. The object of this is to see how long they can go without letting go. Reminding them as their hands start to pull away that the play will stop if they move. This in effect ties them to the headboard as firmly as rope. +The more sensitive and strong willed the person is the better this will proceed. Hopefully you will find this pleasing and stimulating for both of you. If not, ropes may not be what you want. Keep in mind that what is good for the goose is good for the gander. Submit yourself to the test. Your subject may not be the proper one to be bound. They may be more dominant than yourself and the pleasure of being subservient may fall to you. This is not uncommon since who wanted the ropes in the first place? +An explanation of some terms that I have started to use and will use more frequently is needed at this point. Master and Slave are extremes that we will not get into in this course of thought. To start with a Dom (Dominate) is the person that controls the play. The Sub (Submissive) is the person that volunteers to surrender control of the body and mind to will of the Dom. This sounds scary, but the true purpose of a good Dom, is to bring varying degrees of pleasure to the Sub. This comes about by releasing total control to another person who will through tantalizing teases, soft pain, and passion, bring about feelings that anything less will not ever manifest. The Dom's only true gain from the experience is a sense of power over another that even though it is for their benefit the Dom gains also. Last is a Switch (Dom / Sub) this is a person that enjoys being both a Dom and a Sub depending on opportunity, desire and partner. +After playful games like the one already mentioned, the role of Dom and Sub should be rather obvious. This opens the door to further game play and conversation about the use of rope. A positive reaction and you can go to the next step with ease. Even with a negative reaction if they have been enjoying the mind and body tantalizing then proceed to the next step. The next step isn't setting up the torture chamber, it is a continuation of the game. Only instead of holding the headboard pull the rope out and tie a simple loop with a granny knot holding it together. This will keep the loop from collapsing and thus binding the person. +At this point of the training, the Warning and Stop commands must be explained. These are simple words that are utilized to warn of reaching limits, and immediate stop of the session. The Dom must pay attention to the Warning command as an example lets call it ""Yellow"". This will tell the Dom to either soften or go another direction all together. Where the Stop command lets call it ""Red"" then the Dom must stop all action and release the Sub with safety in mind. +Calmly explain that you made it so it will not collapse and can not bind the person any longer than they want to be bound. It is a large enough loop that their hands can pull in and out at any time. In this version of the game they grab the loops, they do not insert their arms, and must hold on as the Dom pleasures the Sub. This continues until a comfort level allows for advancement to actually inserting the arms, and then the actual collapsing of the loop around the wrists to secure the Sub. +Another angle is breast binding. This is basically the binding of the chest of the Sub without actually binding of arms or legs. Through one of many wrapping techniques that can be found even on YouTube, the Sub's breast have the rope looped around them. The real trick is to make sure the rope is snug, but not so tight as to restrict blood flow. There are many beautiful wrapping styles that bind the breast without actually wrapping the arms or legs. +A personal favorite binding of mine is to bind the Sub to themselves. Have the Sub lay on their back and wrap the rope around one wrist and then to the ankle on the same side. With a second rope repeat for the other side. This effectively limits the Sub's movement and leaves them totally open for your exploration of their sexual senses. If the Sub wishes to playfully resist a simple 3rd rope can be added to the play. This rope will slide under the bed or table that they are lying on and wrap around one knee. Then the legs are spread wide apart and that knee is then bound in that position. Now there is no part that can't be explored. Of course if a pillow is added underneath the hips at this point, all avenues may be reached. +If your Sub is courageous, binding like this to a bed, with a blindfold carefully placed makes for a very hot and heavy start of a 3some or even 4some. The bondage element relinquishes the guilt a partner may have of extramarital sex as they would not have a choice once the ropes were in place. Of course the warning and stop commands would still be in effect, but with a Dom worthy of the name, the action would never be more than the Sub's moral fiber would endure." +587,Introducing Spit Play to Your Sex,HeyItsDani,How To,2011-12-16,2011-12-16,2022-01-04 08:35:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/introducing-spit-play-to-your-sex,How to introduce spit play to your sex.,"['Degradation', 'Dominance', 'Face', 'How To', 'Humiliation', 'Spitting', 'Submission']",4.35,"I write about a lot of different kinds of sexual activities. Some are fairly common these days (face fucking), while others aren't so much (face slapping during sex). One of the more controversial subjects I've mentioned involves spitting on a partner during sex. +Spitting during sex squicks a lot of people out, understandably. In fact, spitting in general tends to gross most people out, and doing so during what's supposed to be an intimate encounter, logically, would tend to put most people off as well. But as we know these days, there are very few boundaries many people won't cross when they've both got all of those hormones coursing through their bodies mid-fuck. +With that as background, let's talk about spitting on your partner during sex. +Historically, spitting on someone is one of the penultimate insults. You show incredible disdain or disrespect for anyone you spit on; you're treating them as dirt or subhuman. And it's almost universal. I'm not aware of any culture on the planet that views being spat on as a positive experience. +For most people, their first exposure to spit play comes from having seen it in porn. And while I get irritated at people using porn to supplant legitimate sex education, porn can and does fulfill a role as sexual fantasy fodder for many people. So it's not uncommon for people to want to emulate something they've seen in a video they find interesting or erotic. And in my opinion, as long as both partners are willing to give it a shot, who cares how degrading or disgusting anyone else might think that is. +Like many other ""degrading"" acts you see in porn, you almost invariably see it manifested as men spitting on women. But from my conversations with various people about this, spitting appears to be a bit more egalitarian in nature than, say, slapping. One woman told me she and her boyfriend routinely spit on each other during aggressive fucking sessions. He gets just as much out of her spitting in his face as she does from him doing her when their sex play gets really hot and heavy. She added he finds it quite arousing to have her spit on his cock during oral sex. (Most of the article from this point forward is written using a male/female dynamic, but it could easily involve any gender combination). +Many people like to believe porn ""invented"" spitting in another person's face during sex, but that's hardly the case. Certainly it may not have been as well-known as it is today before porn, but there are historical anecdotes of people spitting on one another during intercourse (just as there was for ass- to-mouth oral sex, facials, slapping, rimming, and many other acts seen as ""degrading"" by various subsets of the population). This is not to say that the acts weren't done specifically to degrade another person, however. +Be that as it may, more people are playing with a range of activities during their sex these days, to include spit. Much of it involves spitting on each other's genitals, often in lieu of ""real"" lube. It's hard to find a really good blow job scene in adult movies where the actress isn't spitting on the guy's cock at some point. And while saliva isn't a terribly effective lubricant, it can suffice for the short haul; I know people who use saliva as a pre-lube for anal penetration, for example (I don't recommend it unless you're used to being anally penetrated). You'll find a lot more people comfortable with you spitting on their naughty bits for a ""reason"" (lube) than spitting on their body or in their face, however. So going there usually requires a good bit of tact. +Bringing It Up +If spit play is something you're interested in, you should evaluate your partner's attitude toward spit to begin with. If they show a strong disdain every time someone spits on the sidewalk or you spit into the sink, you're probably going to have a hard time getting him/her to try it during sex (though that's not always the case). If your partner spits a lot, it might be less challenging than you'd think. You won't know until you bring it up, that much is universally true. +There are a few different ways you can broach the subject. +* Have your partner spit on your genitals when s/he's going down on you. Some people do this when they're sucking cock or eating cunt anyway (largely because they've seen it done in porn, and it is a very effective way to moisten up the other person's naughty bits for mouth play). See how receptive s/he is to spitting around your genitals and other parts of your body, moving up the body as comfort levels permit. If s/he can do that, ask to reverse the situation and you spit on your partner. You can also reverse this and spit on your partner's genitals first. * If you and your partner watch porn together, view some that involves spitting. The specific kind would depend on the kinds of sex you have now. If you're into the misogynistic, degrading sex, watch some porn of that type. If you're not, it's important that you bring up something that leans less toward the misogynistic side (though, admittedly, it may be hard to do with porn involving spitting). If you're already playing the ""treat me like a whore"" game in your sex play, you're half way there. Once the scene is over, ask your partner what s/he thought of what transpired, get a sense of where they are on the subject, and progress from that point. * Read an erotic story or article which includes references to spit play. As a part of discussing that story, have a discussion with your partner about boundaries and what you're willing to try. That should include, of course, spit play. +I can't begin to stress enough this generally isn't something you want to try out of the clear blue. Like being slapped, being spit on will produce a visceral reaction in most people. Indeed, that's half the fun of playing with it. But I can all but guarantee you randomly spitting in someone's face will end a relationship, regardless of what form it takes at the time. If you happen to be engaged in a dynamic Dominant/submissive sex play relationship, you *might* be able to get away with spitting in your partner's face without notice. I know some people who've been perfectly fine with it, but you really need to know and trust your partner to go there. +As a rule, I'd recommend you start by spitting on your partner's genitals, and then working your way up his/her body, spitting on the tummy (or back), then chest (spitting on and slapping a woman's tits can be a good substitute for doing it to the face for many people), and if they seem accepting up to this point, go for the face. Your first shot should be rather light, though. If that works out, then get a little more serious with it. Discuss it afterward to ensure both of you were comfortable with the act and decide whether or not it's something you'd like to keep in your sexual repertoire. +Some people even enjoy spitting into one anothers' mouths. It may sound gross, but it's not much different than French kissing - you're still exchanging spit. One is just done with a little more (apparent) love and intimacy than the other. +The Appeal +What's the appeal of being spit on while you're being fucked? As I've explained above, it's the degradation inherent to the act; being ""treated like a whore."" Sexual interplay is one of those activities where your basal instincts come out from hiding, especially when it involves aggressive or rough physical interaction, and being treated like a piece of meat just brings out the animal in many people when they're fucking. It can be very exciting and erotic if both partners understand it's just a sex game and confine it to sex play. The spitting adds another layer of subjugation or submission into the mix. Some people derive great strength from being submissive to another person, so even though they may not personally enjoy being spit on, they derive pleasure from allowing their partner to dominate them, or from being subjugated (one woman said ""claimed"") by another person. +For the person doing the spitting, it is almost always experienced as an act of dominance. It's not unlike pissing on a partner or other expression of dominance. And some people are perfectly willing to allow you to go there without explicitly asking them. You have to understand how the person you're with is functioning and if their mental state is such that they're going to react appropriately to being spat on. +Perhaps the ultimate expression of dominance is a combination of slapping and spitting on your partner's face. Combining the two sends an unmistakable message that you are more powerful than they are and they're being forced to comply with your wishes. You're telling them you own them, if perhaps only temporarily. So in order for this to ""work"" like it should, you have to do it with force, disdain, and malice. You have to treat it as ""real"" in order for it to have its maximum impact for both the spitter and the person being spat on. That's hard for some people to do, especially with someone you're in an intimate relationship with. +That's pretty much it; there's nothing overly complicated about it. Once you've gotten to the point where the two of you are willing to give it a shot, the physical spitting on someone isn't that hard. The difficult part is conveying the right attitude when doing it - that's the part that gets tough. Unless you are really that dominant, and if that's the case, please come see me soon. +Finally, here's a quick tip. If you want to be able to get a good wad to spit on someone, stay hydrated while you're fucking. People breathe rapidly and heavily when they're having sex, many of the body's physiological processes speed up, and your salivary glands tend to slow their production of saliva when other parts of your body are, shall we say, more heavily engaged (or when you're nervous or excited, which might be the case when you engage in spit play for the first time or with a new partner). As a result, your oral cavity can become dry. Keeping a sufficient supply of water around, and staying hydrated while engaged in the sex will allow you to gather up enough spit in your mouth to make your play more, uh, effective. If you're dehydrated, you'll end up with a weak spray pattern, and that would totally ruin my mood. +Enjoy. ;-)" +588,"Is BDSM For You, Ladies?",TheStarlet,How To,2016-01-07,2016-01-07,2022-01-04 08:35:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/is-bdsm-for-you-ladies,A handy guide to understanding your inner self.,"['Bad', 'Bdsm', 'Fur', 'Humor', 'Is Bdsm For You', 'Kink', 'Ladies?', 'Leather', 'Pain', 'Submission', 'Tail', 'Wax']",4.5,"BDSM has changed my life, and I mean seriously. Changed. My. Life. I don't believe in Jesus, but I really do worship my Dom. I wish someone had presented me with a handy list to alert me to what I might be yearning for years ago. It would have spared me no end of awkwardness and laughs, which, fortunately I can use to good purpose here. Thus without further yammering, here I present to my readers a handy guide Understanding Your Hidden BDSM Self. +Ladies. You should probably look into BDSM pronto if: + **1\. All the sex you've had in your life up until this point blurs together in one long awkward scene.** +My sex life, up until discovering my dark side, featured heavily on men that came fast, frequently, and apologized profusely afterwards. This was not, actually, their fault. They were fundamentally nice guys! Too nice, really. I was, on the other hand, a complete handful: I was raking my fingernails down their backs and telling them to fuck me harder, just please, fuck me, harder. Now. +So what were they supposed to do? Come fast and frequently, obviously. They were just nice guys who ended up in bed with an absolutely feral vixen. The only guys who could handle me ended up being the bonafide assholes, and outside the bedroom I legit hated their guts. But I still miss them to this day, all their narrowed eyes and ferocity and ruthlessness. I miss them a lot. I miss them most of all. And that's just another sign. Because... + **2\. You miss the assholes. Bad.** +Right, so these are the guys that you either didn't introduce to your friends and family for very, very good reasons or, conversely, hid from your acquaintances like you didn't know them at all. I dated one in high school and I wrote him love notes in Sharpie fine-tip marker on the cinder blocks outside our school. I remember his name, and not just because it's the same name as one of the great Irish poets...because of-fucking-course. I fucking loved him. He tasted like cigarettes and drove a truck and gave me his pager number, but only called me back probably one-in-ten times. I thought we were going to get married when he gave me a hemp bracelet. The problem was that everybody in my universe was horrified that I knew him, let alone couldn't stop talking about him. He ran ice over my skin while we made out in the basement. In the back parking lot of the Dairy Queen, he told me I was bad, so fucking bad, and I came on his fingers. He was that guy. He also played drums. Badly. Don't you judge me. +My problem was, and remained for many years, that I wanted an asshole at night and a gentleman during the day. I think I knew this even when I was in high school, but couldn't have possibly said so, because I was super busy deciding if I should bring a silver purse to prom or a sequined red one, or whether or not I was going to get an A or A- in Ridiculously Lengthy Timespan of American History. Meanwhile, I didn't really want Bad Boyfriend to leer at me from down the fourth floor hallway, you know? That kind of cramped my high school vibe, Badboy Joyce down the hall giving me eyebrow raises and making me speechless. That kind of made me look like a Bad Girl, which I really was not. Not on the surface. Not during the day. At night though? Even in my dreams? Shiiiiiit. Except it was more complicated than all that too: Even then see, I've learned, all I've ever wanted is to be a really, really Good Girl. Capital Gs all around, preferably heard in a dark room, at midnight, with a collar around my throat. +So for a trueborn sub like me (I can show you my BDSMtest.org results! 99% Submissive! Represent!) the answer to this Bad Guy/Good Man quandary was to find a really, really good Dom. I recommend this in the strongest possible terms, but look out for the dickheads. I'll post a How To on that soon. If he's a good Dom to you, the man himself will be just as unique as you are. You'll fit together, two halves of the same split orange.

All the things I had always wanted and have now. +Alternatively, if you're a lady reading this and thinking all this sounds hot but really, you'd like to get me on my knees and make me eat your pussy, you might just be a Domme.

Send me a PM. + **3\. You like pain. As in, a lot.** +Now, before I first got my bikini line waxed, when I was 19, I thought, ""Oh Christ. Why would anybody ever..."" but then I took the plunge and I loved it. Except you know why I loved it? Not because I was silky smooth; I don't even really care about that and honestly, ladies, how long does it last? A week? Depending on your ethnicity and epilatory zeal, a day? So no. The feeling wasn't the thing I loved. And the look wasn't what I loved either... I mean, who really wants to look like a Barbie doll? Or a child? It's weird, it's infantilizing, and it's kind of strange, no matter what the manfolk may say. No, what I really, really liked, and why I've loved doing it ever since? +The pain. That yanking awful delicious pain, the thought of my hair being ripped from my flesh. That. Yes. Please, yes. +But even more wonderful than the pain? The preparation for the pain: The wax going on my skin before the pain even happens.

More, more, more. + **4\. You just cannot imagine everybody has missionary sex until they die.** +That's because they do not. I don't think they do. I choose to believe that no, they do not, and neither should you. I believe, with my fist in the air like any good revolutionary, that you should do all manner of kinky things to yourself and everybody else if that's what gets you rolling because God help me, how long are we on this earth? A long goddamned time, if you break it down into hours spent in bed. So we might as well make the most of it. But the catch is, you might not want to tell anybody about The Revolution... + **5\.

The idea of things like leather, feathers, rope, fur, and whatever-the- fuck else seriously turns you on.** +So this is fetish territory, and if you're reading this and have never been over to the Lit forums, I really encourage you to go. People are super kinky. Super kinky! And they will tell you all about it, in depth, and maybe even ask you to participate which I find incredibly hot as well. Not that I'm into taking ice baths with fur-tailed butt plugs or whatever, but it really thrills me that there are people who are... and that somewhere in the universe, there are other people who are! And that they can go have ice baths together, with their fur tails, because fuck yes. That's what this life is all about. Get dark. Get dirty. Get messy. Do it.

For me, she never disappoints, and there are times that we especially take time to enjoy the journey and this morning was exactly that. +The spontaneity of the moment heightened the arousal. We were both giddy with excitement to be with each other. Our senses of touch, taste, smell and sight were gloriously acute as we intertwined, paying very close attention to each other's bodies. I'm amazed at the little smile on my face and my arousal now as my mind replays every small detail. My body still smells of sex. It was without a doubt the total convergence of mind, body, spirit, imagination, sex, love, and instinct. Truly a memory maker. +My wife was on her back on the bed, totally naked. I was over her savoring every millimeter of her skin as I journeyed down her body. Consciously trying not to miss any of her erogenous zones I kissed her face, her lips, her neck, her shoulders and then focused on her incredible breasts. I never tire of seeing them, holding them, caressing them and pulling her sensitive nipples into my mouth, feeling them grow and harden from my stimulation. +I left a wet tongue trail down her abdomen. Finally, I ended up at her most intimate spot. My mouth was watering from the sensual, sexual aroma that permeated the room. My eyes lingered, noticing that her sparse and dark pubic hair was moist from her natural lubricant. Her soft and pouting lips exposed the wetness from anticipation. My tongue reached out and traced up her very wet slit, generating a moan escaping my wife's lips. At this point she was hardly able to lie still. Every pore of her body was begging for attention. +I continued my oral stimulation and soaked up every detail of her gorgeous anatomy. I knew I located my treasure and I greedily lusted after its powerful flavor, aroma, texture and excitement. In spite of the heightened arousal and excitement, I took my time focusing on her senses. Each lap of my tongue and lips generated a spontaneous reaction. I felt the tension building in my wife's body. Finally, my lips rested around her clitoris, which was swollen and poking out from its protective hood. I gently massaged it with my tongue, up and down then side to side. I felt a small orgasm begin to pound through her body. Ah, it was time to escalate this incredible experience and take my gorgeous wife to higher thresholds. +Her legs voluntarily opened wider as she felt me reposition myself. I brought my left hand, palm up, between her legs. I gently tested her wetness to see if she needed more before I continued. I gently pushed open her entrance with my forefinger and pushed it in. I noticed my finger was already soaked from her juice as I bent my finger up to massage that soft sponge of nerves just inside. Another orgasm shook her, more powerful than the last. +I once again placed my mouth over her clit while my finger massaged her. I lightly sucked on her nib, pulling it into my mouth. While my lips and tongue were working their magic I looked up at my blonde wife. What an incredible perspective. Over her mound and her stomach, her breasts were heaving from the heavy breathing. I momentarily reached up and pinched a nipple and rolled it between my fingertips. I began in earnest, putting all of my energy and enthusiasm into bringing my wife to her most powerful string of orgasms. With my finger pumping and massaging away, my mouth dedicated to her clit, I felt her body tense up completely. An exhale produced an earthquake on the bed as my wife erupted. Her body pushed my finger out as she spasmed and released a torrent of fluid, soaking my hand and bed sheets beneath her. +This was only the first of many. After a few moments I began repeating the process and the next orgasm was more powerful than the last. The intensity of her orgasms continued increasing until she had gushed many times. Finally, after several minutes the most powerful orgasm occurred, violently bucking through her body as she screamed, gasped and her fingers clawed at the bed sheets. I knew that was my signal to stay away from her over sensitive clit at this point. She had to take a temporary hiatus to the stimulation, but it didn't stop her desires. She pulled me up to her and grasped my hardened member and directed it with urgency to her tunnel. She pulled me into her and we pursued a very hot rhythm of two excited bodies. +Afterwards, we held each other tightly, engrossed in the sharing of extreme intimacy. And we both were in the middle of a huge wet spot on the bed. Our sheets were drenched. +Now, was what I described above a reality, or, was it a figment of my imagination; a dreamt up fantasy? I assure you it was real. It was powerful. It was incredibly exciting and I'm hard again just thinking about it. We've had these sessions periodically for years and still, she soaks the bed. +I'm very intrigued by female ejaculation. Perhaps, I'm more fascinated with the controversy. I've Googled ""female ejaculation"" many times and found a series of articles, including scientific based information. For a very long time now it has been an ongoing debate; is it real? What is the fuid that is ejected from the female's body? Where does it come from? +Apparently, scientists cannot agree. Some say the only possibility is that it must be urine. Therefore, if it's urine then it must come from the bladder. I'm not a scientist, but I can assure you that it's not urine nor does it come from the bladder. Urine has a distinct smell, color and taste. This female ejaculate does not have color, smell or much taste. It doesn't stain. But it can be voluminous and it can soak a bed. +What I do suspect is scientists have a very difficult time coming to a scientific conclusion if they can't reproduce the act in a laboratory. Masters and Johnson were reported to have 400 females attempt to ejaculate and none experienced this phenomenon during the lab test. It seems to be a very difficult challenge; therefore many scientists assume it must not really exist. +I have my own theory. I can assure you it's not scientific, however, it does come from personal experience. I firmly (pardon the pun) believe that there must be five very important ingredients before a woman can experience this powerful reaction. +First, there must be spontaneity. I can't imagine a couple trying to plan this in an attempt to see if the woman will squirt after a period of lovemaking. It's a spontaneous reaction to a spontaneous situation. Just let it happen. But, that's much easier said than done because of the next four ingredients. +Second, there must be a very heightened sense of arousal. Sounds like kind of a ""duh"" statement, but it is very true. This is not to say that ""quickies"" can't produce the female ejaculation, because they certainly can if the woman knows how to let it happen. After all, Quickies, by their very definition means they are spontaneous! The point is the female must be very excited through sexual stimulation. +This is the third part of this theory; there must be correct stimulation. The partner attempting to help the female reach this incredible climax must learn how to properly stimulate and build the tension to the ultimate. It's not necessarily the same with every woman, but the result certainly can be. Masturbation can produce this powerful orgasm. My personal experience is that stimulating the clitoris simultaneously with the G spot produces effective results. However, the oral stimulation described above is not our only position for effective stimulation. Occasionally, intercourse can cause the reaction. +We've learned that her most powerful, gushing orgasms can occur almost nonstop if she is standing on her knees, thighs parted. I'm on my knees on her left side (I'm right handed) facing her side so I can bring my right hand down under her bottom and insert two fingers in her vagina. While I'm thrusting my fingers and alternately massaging her G spot either she or I rubs her clitoris. It is an extreme, way-over-the-top experience for both of us. The technique can vary if the female is highly aroused. Be sure to use a lot of towels! +Fourth, and perhaps most important; there must be no inhibitions. In reading my research it appears there is a ""dirty"" perspective to a woman ejaculating. To many, it's like bed wetting or urinating during sex. Without the proper understanding it can be very embarrassing and create a lot of anxiety. Ejaculation is a very normal part of the female sexual experience. When it occurs, it's an incredible experience for both partners. +The final part of this theory is very closely linked to number four, inhibitions. The female wanting to enjoy this must have total trust in their partner. They must not only give their entire body to their partner, they must know the partner will not be embarrassed, or shocked by the result. +It truly can create stronger relationships. I'm certain my wife will spend the rest of the day smiling, exhibiting an inner peace, tranquility and love. My wife suffers from an affliction that causes pain throughout her body and we've both noticed a significant reduction in the pain on days we have these sexual, gushing encounters. +An issue about this phenomenon that most scientists seem to agree with is that if it is real, then only a small minority of women are able to experience this ejaculation. Another post on scientific research stated that between 5 to 53% of women experience ejaculation at least once, which is a laughable range. Now here is where I say the fun is in the practice! I'm inclined to believe that most women can learn this form of ecstasy. In fact, another scientific article eluded to a small island in the Pacific with an ancient, tribal culture. Through the generations young women were taught by older women to ""spray the walls"". +There you have it; my five very important factors for women to achieve ejaculation; spontaneity, high degree of arousal, proper stimulation, loss of inhibitions and trust. If I'm correct, then it's easier to understand why scientists have debated the issues because of the difficulty of reproducing the effect in a lab. +True, this is from a man's perspective. However, I can assure you this man was taught how to love through years of practice with a very sensitive, sensual and responsive woman and I wouldn't trade that experience for anything in the whole world! +Good luck and enjoy your practicing!" +590,It Ain't About the Dick,TheAustinDom,How To,2017-01-22,2017-01-22,2022-01-04 08:35:27,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/it-aint-about-the-dick,Everything I wish someone would have told me when I was 21.,"['Advice', 'Guide', 'How To', 'Orgasm', 'Sexual Partners', 'Spanking', 'Squirting', 'Submission', 'Touch', 'Understanding']",4.55,"So this is my V2 of this piece. After much consideration, I've added a few things and clarified a few things to make it better. +This is my opinion and knowledge gathered from many years of pursuing better sexual relationships. All I can write about is my experience so take it for what it is. If you disagree with any of it, you're more than entitled and I applaud your approach. I have no desire to wrestle with anyone about these ideas. This is one man's opinion and one man's pursuit. +From the first piece, there was so much love and some very interesting reactions. I think my favorites were from women giving it to their lovers AND telling me it changed their world. +I'm pretty happy about this. So here's the expanded version.) +It ain't about the dick. What I wish I knew when I was a much younger man. +First off. I love women. I always have. I've had a lot of wonderful women in my life and I love them all to this day. +And maybe because of that, I've learned a lot about them. +But let me preface first. Yes, there is no one rule to explain anyone or anything. There are a zillion exceptions to everything and I'm not about to say ""this is how you treat all women."" That would be just plain stupid. +What I am going to do however, is to try to give younger guys some advice on better sexual relationships with women all based on my personal experience. I'm not your doctor or therapist or priest. I'm just some anonymous guy from the internet that's learned some important lessons. If I can save a guy some fumbling around and save some women from lousy sex from someone they love, then my work is done. +How men deal with men, or women with women or all the things in between, not my pay grade. Y'all go figure that out on your own. +But if you're a young straight guy wanting better sex with women, listen up. I got things to say. +1\. IT AIN'T ABOUT THE DICK. +Every guy points to his JohnThomas and figures women will swoon. That his dick is the center of the universe and all he has to do is whip it out and holy fuck, the girls will go mad. +That ain't how it works. +Most women can get along just fine without your dick. In fact, most women can have better orgasms without you even in the room. Sure, keeping a hardon long enough for them to ride it till they're fulfilled, or sore or bored is nice. But there are a thousand ways to make a woman have a fantastic orgasm that have nothing to do with your dick. +Can we see a show of hands of all you women that only want a guy to stick his dick in you and hot damn, that's the center of the universe. +Any takers? +Get over it guys. It's an elective, not a required class. Hell, you can probably give a woman more pleasure with two fingers than with your cock. Even if you're hung like a fucking horse, two fingers can probably take most women further than a massive meatstick. And from what I've seen in life, a big cock can mean more pain than pleasure for a lot of women. Personally, I'm a big guy and I've got a good sized cock. I've had relationships where my dick was just too big for her so I learned a lot of workarounds. You have a million choices here guys. Use them. +2\. IF YOU'RE THE RIGHT GUY AND YOU GET IT, YOU CAN DRIVE. +I've seen a change in womankind over the years. I think we can thank the internet for that, but women are, in my opinion, much more able to take control of their world. I welcome this. Of course, it seems one political party is doing everything it can to push women back into a little box, but they'll fail in the long run. +I'm really happy to see power being taken by women in business, choices and personal lives. And because they're more able to make decisions and run their own worlds, most guys feel like they're losing their power. Which they are. But buck up guys, live with it. That's just how it is. +But if you listen and you get it, they'll let you drive. In my own experience with the Dom/Sub culture, it's very conditional. Most women I've known are more than capable of running their own show and don't need some asshole guy to do anything for them. But when conditions are right, they'll let go. They'll submit to the right lover and take in all the pleasure they can. +That means guys, you need to understand this. Telling your lover how to do shit won't go far. She's probably smarter than you anyway. But understanding her sexuality, and I mean REALLY understanding is the key. +3\. ASK. JUST FUCKING ASK. +The best way to understand a woman's sexuality is to ask. Put it right out there. Ask her what she likes. Ask about her fantasies and be prepared. She may have a dark side, she may want to be tied up, spanked, fucked with a rubber cock, shown off to your friends... She may totally embrace her inner slut but only under the prefect circumstances. She may scare the shit out of you once you pull back the veil. She may have a side much darker than you're comfortable with... She may not. But unless you really ask, you'll never know. Whatever is deep inside her, it's better for you both to open up that box and see what's inside. Celebrate it... Embrace it and try it all. +You'll never guess on your own. Ask. Most of the erotica I've written has come about from conversations that opened up new thinking. I use my words to illustrate a lot of secrets that might have never been heard had I not asked. +4\. WATCH. IT'S FUN. +If you want to know how your lover wants to be touched, see how she touches herself. +Watching a woman masturbate is both educational AND wonderful. Most guys see a vagina and start treating it like a fucking basketball. Too rough. No understanding of the anatomy or the mind behind it. +How a woman wants to be touched in the right conditions can only really be understood by observation. And if you ask your lover to masturbate for you, she may be too shy at first, but be patient. Let her get comfortable with it because this is Orgasm 101. +She is an expert on her own body. Learn at the feet of the master if you're ever going to be a master yourself. Watch her make herself cum... +5\. MAKE A PLAN. +My lover is gone quite a bit. So our times together are very precious and every minute is worth something. So I plan each encounter and work to make it perfect for us both. For me, giving her pleasure is my biggest turnon. I love helping her lose herself in the experience, turn off the rest of the universe and let go and melt. +So we talk about what she'd like. Soft, gentle, making love... Or rough, scare the shit out her, beat her ass and force her to squirt and scream and thrash and explode and pass out from the intensity. +Or any of the thousand degrees in between? +Talk about it... Build up that visual and fantasy beforehand and plan ahead. Have everything ready and let her know you're taking your time together seriously. Make it good. Don't just stumble around hoping you can stick your dick in her. Talk about it. Be prepared and make her melt. +If you make it through half of your plan, you're still both going to have a much better experience than if you had no plan. +6\. SHE CUMS FIRST. +This is my rule anyway but rules are for breaking. +Sometimes the moment is way too powerful to hold back and holy fuck, that was good... OK, now your turn. +But it's great to be able to take your time. Tease her. Edge her (REALLY POWERFUL FOR YOU BOTH). Learn what melts her and do it. Make her cum before you stick your dick in her (if that's the goal). She'll cum again. And again. And possibly again. +I've known some extraordinarily orgasmic women. I've known women who can have 30 and 40 and 50 squirting orgasms in a night. But only if you're in tune with what she loves. Take the time to give her so much pleasure she has her first orgasm before you slide your cock inside. Don't just jam it in and expect the heavens to open. +Open the heavens first dude. +7\. SQUIRTING. +This is a very contentious point. +Some women have assailed me for even bringing it up, which is pretty fucking stupid. +Some women love squirting. Some don't. Some want to learn, some don't. Some women don't feel its possible for them or that it's worth the trouble... +I'm over the opinion that whatever you want is fine. +What I can say though is that every woman I've ever been with that's squirted for their first time, it was incredibly powerful for everyone concerned. And often, it's a surprise. Where the fuck did that come from... What just happened... Holy hell, I soaked my dress and I have a meeting in an hour... +Yes it's awesome to make a woman cum so hard she totally loses it and squirts across the room. I've written a lot about squirting orgasms so dig around and find that stuff. It's real, wonderful and when you figure it out, life changes. +If you hate the idea, more power to you. It's your choice to play or not. +For guys who've experienced it, you either love it or not. Up to you. +For me personally, I love it. And I love making it happen the first time, +8\. IF SHE WANTS YOU TO ABUSE HER, TREAT HER WELL. +This is part of the dance. The game we all play. If she has a fantasy of the big, strong Alpha Male taking over and turning her to jelly, or calling her a cunt and slapping her around, or tying her up and fucking her ass or forcing her to cum or whatever... Ask. Understand and make it happen. But know her hard limits and soft limits. We're all in this together so listen and don't abuse the power she's giving you. +And make no mistake, she's giving it to you. Don't fuck it up. If you're such an Alpha God Ultramale, then you probably don't give two shits about what she wants or not and I'm surprised you got this far. You get a cookie. +9\. GREEN MEANS GO... +This is a great idea. +Traffic lights. +Once you have the keys and know how to drive, it's a green light. If she wants to up the level of intensity but it's getting pretty close to stop, she can say ""yellow"" and you know to back off a bit. +When she says ""red"" its time to pull the plug. Stop instantly. She knows her limits. +10\. EMPATHY BUILDS TRUST. +When you understand her you can build her trust. When she trusts that you understands her melting points, she'll trust you and let go. +When she lets go and you understand her, you'll have the best fucking sexual experiences in the universe. +But without empathy, you're just exercising and she'll end up frustrated. Put yourself in her shoes (literally if you want). When I write erotica for my Wildflower, I write it thinking about how she'll read it... I know what things she'll visualize that will make her heart skip a little... +Yes, it takes some work to think like someone else but it's worth it. Give her that extra effort and your relationship will be much better. +11\. MIX THAT SHIT UP. +Part of keeping a great sex life great is unexpected change. Bring in new things all the time and surprise her (and this goes for both parties!) +Before seeing Wildflower, I'll ask her what she'd like. Sometimes she wants me to scare the shit out of her. Sometimes not. And nothing ever goes exactly as planned. I may have a whole outline laid out in my mind but things will change and I'll go with it. Forcing something just seems awkward. Once you've opened up the communications, it'll flow much better. +So that's my treatise. My Manifesto For Men Who Aren't Arrogant Selfish Assholes. +I suspect most men start out as arrogant selfish assholes and some dummy up over the years and drop the selfish asshole part. A little Alpha Male Arrogance has it's charms I suspect. But nobody loves a selfish asshole. +So did I forget anything? Probably so. There could be a V3 coming." +591,It Ain't Literature,fishgullet,How To,2004-11-15,2004-11-15,2022-01-04 08:35:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/it-aint-literature,What is the difference between a good and a bad story?,"['Good', 'Good Bad', 'Good Story', 'Human Beings', 'Human Condition', 'Story', 'Story Good']",4.43,"What is the difference between a good story and a bad one? With so many different preferences and perversions percolating among the aficionados of this site, what one person enjoys another may detest. The best erotica is not the sex, but how the story of sex. +Many works that would have been good stories have been sabotaged by poor grammar. On one hand grammar is little more than an arbitrary set of rules of how words should be combined and notated. On the other hand grammar is the best and most flexible system for communicating your ideas: these rules make your thoughts accessible to strangers who do not know the inflections of your speech, your regional dialect, or your idiosyncrasies. Grammar is only a skill and although there are many rules, grammar is a task for craftsmen, not a gift for artists. +Grammar has no inherent mystery or hidden tricks – it is just learning the skill sets. Learn to spell, learn the difference between dependent and independent clauses, and nail down the rules of comma usage. Only after these rules are applied accurately will the reader be able to understand the quality of your thoughts and story. No one has a clue what you are saying without good grammar +The quality – after grammar that is the crux of the dilemma that the writer faces. The stories on this site are not the high literature that draws the attention of self-appointed cultural elites and few, if any, are complaining. Good writing does not have to be high literature. Erotica can be a part of the best literature in the world and pornography can be the worst, but do not make the mistake of assuming that high literature is always or even necessarily the best. (I think some of the grand literature is obtuse, obscure, and often just plain boring.) The best writing is the stories and essays that move you, that push you to think and feel and imagine what you have never considered before. +If I may make a generalization, most of the writing on this site is dedicated to ""getting your rocks off."" Unless designated as non-erotic, you and I already know that in any given story, someone is going to have an orgasm, which means that we already know the climax of the story. Ooo, bad pun. Not a bad endeavor in and of itself (I enjoy it), but it is also true that sex is just one element among many of the human condition. +The stories may be about sex but without other elements of human life, the stories fall flat. Sex scenes without any context may be great for horny teenagers and hard up social conservatives who must hide their proclivities behind the façade of their anti-pornography crusade, but such scenes lack the other crucial elements that are necessary for good storytelling for the rest of us. As one critic quipped, ""These stories are a limp dick."" +Many writers presented on this site fail to grasp the conclusion of Master and Johnson's research that the most important sexual organ is the brain. Yes, the brain is key and not the cock, pussy, ass, breast, leg, big toe or even the precocious earlobe. Unless the brain is incorporated into the seduction, the rest of the body does not respond. Consider the small truth that creatures without brains do not have sex, they engage in mitosis. +So pervasive is this need to stimulate the brain for sex, that the collective human mind will look anywhere and everywhere for stimulants. Individuals have made fetishes out of every object found on face of the earth, hence the phrase used above ""getting your rocks off."" The human form is not always enough and thus we invent stories, purchase toys, and use our imagination to find eroticism in whatever we have at hand. Wood, rope, office buildings, cigars, clothes, music and water, are just a smidgen of the objects one can find in the stories here that hold or add to some trigger of lust. I would not be surprised that there is some Eskimo out in the artic wilderness who finds walrus farts humorously erotic (and I can't wait to read that story). +A good story is one that stimulates the brain, not just the crotch. Human beings are by definition curious. We want to know why the protagonist is acting in this manner or how the circumstances came about or even why should we care about what happens. We already know the orgasm, a really good one no doubt, will be forthcoming. This imagining is more than adding adjectives and adverbs, this is the material that gives a story weight and depth. When human beings interact a tension exists between the players, and it is within this tension that the attraction between the players grows and develops – for good or for bad. If there is no tension, then there is no story worth telling, no matter how long the orgasm is. +After reading many stories, a pattern of formula plots and redundancy emerges. Sad though it seems to admit it, there really is a finite number of ways to achieve orgasm. The difference between a bad story and a good one is the other elements of the human condition that are activated in the course of achieving pleasure. The human condition is all of the passions, emotions, rationalizations, hopes, failures, musings and strivings that are part of human existence. To move from loneliness to love is one of the most popular dynamics of the human soul or from remorse to forgiveness, or lust to love just to name a few of the positive ones. The negative dynamics like violence to revenge, or power to corruption are all the more compelling – if the writer can pull it off convincingly. Sex may be redundant and repetitive, but all of these other parts of our lives are limitless possibilities. +Many commentators condescendingly conclude that the writer must have new and original ideas to make a good story or essay. Even more, these same commentators claim that each piece of writing must include many new ideas, some magical number of more than one. (Of course if all the critics on the sidelines are saying the same thing, they are failing to acknowledge their own lack of creativity.) ""New,"" ""original"" and ""creative"" are stumbling blocks, false deities if you will. All of these words such as ""new,"" ""original"" and ""creative"" should describe the act of the writer looking at the same damn things that everyone else does, but describing them in his own unique words, his own self-contained view. +When the writer uses everyone else's words, clichés and phrases, he is just pulling pieces from previous stories and recombining them into another story. That is not writing, that is mental masturbation. Many who wrestle with writing original works explain the difficulty of trying to find the right word or phrase in any given sentence as ""trying to fit a square peg in a round hole."" Everyone struggles and most of us will go through several drafts until a polished piece emerges. Ernest Hemmingway reportedly quipped that the beauty of text emerges in the eleventh draft! And neither you nor I are Ernest Hemmingway. +If you want to write works of fiction, erotic or otherwise, then be prepared to sweat and slave over a text and be willing to put in the hours and days that are necessary to polish a story. The pious editor who closes the book of Ecclesiastes warns: +""Slow down, my son, and be warned The making of many books is without limit And much investigation is wearying of the flesh.""

What's the difference?** +Confusing ""its"" and ""it's"" is one of the most common mistakes I see in amateur writing. I will try to explain the difference between these two words so that you'll never again have to wonder if you used the correct one. +You might be tempted to lay all the blame for your confusion on the apostrophe, but it's not really the apostrophe's fault. Let me tell you a story. +Long ago the Apostrophe got a job filling in for missing letters wherever there was a contraction. A contraction is when two words are smashed together to form one word. +For example when you put ""does"" and ""not"" together, you squish out the ""o"" and you get ""doesn't."" +Other examples are: +would + not = wouldn't they + will = they'll let + us = let's **it + is or it + has = it's** +Did you catch that last one? Good. You use ""it's"" when there's a contraction. There's no messing with the contraction rule; it's concrete. + **If you take two words, slap them together to make one word while squishing out some of the letters, you must always use an apostrophe to take the place of the missing letters.** +Now, back to my story. As often happens when someone does their job extremely well, management decided the Apostrophe needed something else to do. They decided that, not only would the Apostrophe appear every time there was a contraction, he should now also show possession of something. +For example, if the cock belongs to Joe, you write: +Joe's cock +Other examples: +Jane's luscious tits the Master's whip Daddy's girl Charles's buttocks +Now, you might ask, ""What happens if the dildo belongs to Tracy and Stacy the lesbians? Do I write, ""the lesbian's dildo?"" +No. This is where it gets a tiny bit tricky. We're now in the crazy land of plural possessives. To go back to the basics, plural means more than one, and in that example we're talking about more than one lesbian. +THIS is the situation where the apostrophe is forced to go after the s, otherwise everyone gets all confused. If you put the apostrophe before the s, people start thinking, ""Wait a second! I thought there were TWO lesbians. I thought I was reading a story about a threesome! What the fuck?"" +Best not to anger or confuse your readers. If the item in question belongs to more than one person, put the apostrophe at the end of the word. +So, just to make sure you understand, here are some more examples of plural possessive: +Dave often watched his **parents' porn videos**. (The videos belong to BOTH parents.) +The sultan adored fucking his **wives' pussies** whenever possible. (We're talking about more than one wife.) +The **twins' sense of rhythm** was so in tune that they had no problem fulfilling their mother's wish for double penetration. +But I'm forgetting my story again. +Let's recap. Remember way back when the Apostrophe took that first job? The Apostrophe said, ""Okay, whenever there's a contraction, I'll show up to take the place of the missing letters."" +Then management, in its mysterious wisdom, gave the Apostrophe his other job and said, ""Now you also need to be there when something belongs to someone."" +Because he needed this job, the poor apostrophe sighed and said, ""Okay."" +For a while, everything was fine and dandy. The Apostrophe worked like a dog, and he did it without complaint because at least he didn't have to do what the Comma had to do! +But then someone decided they wanted to write this: +Betty sucked the cock. **Its** tip touched the back of her throat, making her gag, but she kept sucking. +Now, the poor apostrophe had been working his ass off going from possessive to contraction and back again. When this ""its"" situation came up he didn't know what to do. +The apostrophe said to himself, ""If I appear in the word 'its,' people might think I'm there doing my job as a contraction and not as a possessive. 'It is tip touched the back of her throat…' That doesn't even make sense! And of course, everyone will blame me for the screw up. I'll get demoted and then I'll never be able to pay off the doctor bill for my wife's new tits."" +All pissed off now, the Apostrophe went to his boss and blew his stack. +""You know,"" said the Apostrophe, ""I've given my all for this company. I show up every damn day doing the job of two punctuation marks while those slackers the Question Mark and the Exclamation Point sit around all fucking day with almost nothing to do. But not me. Hell no. I'm out there busting my butt with contractions AND possessives twenty-four seven. +""So now, this whole 'its' problem comes up and I have no idea what you people want me to do about it. So here's what I'm going to do. From now on, my job as contraction is going to take precedence over my job as a possessive. End of story. Working with contractions was the job I was hired to do first anyway! So write a little memo or whatever and let everyone know what's going on, because I've had it."" +Because the Apostrophe did indeed have a spotless record, his boss accepted his decision and upon reviewing his file, even gave him a promotion. And as for the Apostrophe, he was thrilled. He'd finally gotten the recognition he deserved. Soon after, the Apostrophe's wife got new tits AND a tummy-tuck and they lived happily ever after. +So, I hope that clears things up for you. +""It's"" = it + is or it + has ""Its"" should indicate possession. +Once again, **it's** been a blast teaching you about the apostrophe and its dual job. :)" +593,It's How They Say It,pacifist91w,How To,2014-04-15,2014-04-15,2022-01-04 08:35:31,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/its-how-they-say-it,Tips for writing conversations!,"['Conversation', 'Female-Female', 'Funny', 'Gay', 'Girl-Girl', 'Guide', 'Helpful', 'Humor', 'Lesbian', 'Tips']",4.38,"_Author's disclaimer: I consider myself an amateur. Except for the rare times I'm told to write something for work, I am an unpaid author/poet/scriptwriter. What follow are my suggestions for fellow writers who feel their conversations could use some spice._ +Author's warning: Vulgar language and explicit lesbian sex within! +-*-*- +This guide is my attempt to provide some tips for livelier, smoother, and more readable passages of dialogue and conversation. The comparisons I made in the course of writing this guide are often meant simply to illustrate differences, not to suggest superiority or inferiority. I've organized this guide in a ""situation-original-modified"" format. Some of these situations have more than one possible modification. +01) Using multiple punctuation marks +We've all seen this kind of passage, I'm certain. It turns off many readers, but we have a few alternatives we can choose. +Original: ""She looks like she's in her early twenties!!!!"" Lydia protested. ""Are you sure she's your mother??!! How could she be??? She's smoking hot!!!!"" +David said, ""Did you just say my mom's hot??? Tell me you didn't!!!!!"" +\--The most obvious change is to cut the number of marks and tone down the excitement. +Modification A: ""She looks like she's in her early twenties!"" Lydia protested. ""Are you sure she's your mother? How could she be? She's smoking hot."" +David said, ""Did you just say my mom's hot? Tell me you didn't!"" +\--But supposing you're trying to build that excitement as high as you can-- what then? Another way to change this passage is to mix and match your verbs and your punctuation. +Modification B: ""She looks like she's in her early twenties! Are you sure she's your mother? How could she be?"" Lydia exclaimed. ""She's smoking hot!"" +David gaped. ""Did you just say my mom's hot? Tell me you didn't!"" +\--You've used question marks, highlighting the characters' disbelief. But you've used the words ""exclaimed"" and ""gaped,"" highlighting the characters' energy. Readers tend to expect punctuation to agree with verbs. Mixing and matching can get them more interested in your conversation. +02) Using ""said"" all the time +Especially when characters are talking to expose the story, there will be times when conversations seem very plain. +Original: ""Christine started it,"" said Sharise. +""Christine stole your panties first, I know. You didn't have to escalate it,"" said Colette. +""I think I did. She wouldn't learn otherwise,"" said Sharise. +""So you had to throw all her clothes in the pool and leave her locked in fuzzy handcuffs, secured to the handle of the poolroom door? That seems extreme,"" said Colette. +""I didn't know it was 'Bring Your Strap-On to Practice Day' for the swim team,"" said Sharise. +""You would have done it anyway,"" said Colette. +""...Yeah,"" said Sharise. +""That's why I have to give you a spanking with this hairbrush. Take off your shorts,"" said Colette. +\--There are several ways to change this passage. One thing to do is to change the order of the words. +Modification A: ""Christine started it,"" said Sharise. +""Christine stole your panties first, I know. You didn't have to escalate it,"" said Colette. +Sharise said, ""I think I did. She wouldn't learn otherwise."" +""So you had to throw all her clothes in the pool and leave her locked in fuzzy handcuffs, secured to the handle of the poolroom door? That seems extreme,"" said Colette. +""I didn't know it was 'Bring Your Strap-On to Practice Day' for the swim team,"" said Sharise. +Colette said, ""You would have done it anyway."" +""...Yeah,"" said Sharise. +""That's why I have to give you a spanking with this hairbrush. Take off your shorts,"" said Colette. +\--If the passage is a dialogue (and this one is) you can simply skip the mention of the speaker once you've established the rhythm of the conversation. +Modification B: ""Christine started it,"" said Sharise. +""Christine stole your panties first, I know. You didn't have to escalate it,"" said Colette. +""I think I did. She wouldn't learn otherwise."" +""So you had to throw all her clothes in the pool and leave her locked in fuzzy handcuffs, secured to the handle of the poolroom door? That seems extreme."" +""I didn't know it was 'Bring Your Strap-On to Practice Day' for the swim team,"" said Sharise. +""You would have done it anyway,"" said Colette. +""...Yeah."" +""That's why I have to give you a spanking with this hairbrush. Take off your shorts."" +\--Some authors also like to use more specific verbs and verb phrases instead of ""said."" The problems that often arise when using this method are that it gets redundant fast and that it can disrupt the flow of the conversation. That's a good segue to the next topic, actually. +03) Using so many descriptive words (verbs, adjectives, and adverbs in particular) that the conversation gets buried +At times, the action of the story will be intense and the characters' emotions will be strong. You're the author; your emotions are bound to be strong while you're writing these passages. +Original: ""There were supposed to be other people watching the exits!"" Toria fumed. ""What the hell happened to my backup, huh?"" Her cheeks were red; her eyebrows scrunched her eyes to angry slits; her voice shook with tension. +Agent Sinclair let her hand stray toward the grip of her .40 caliber service handgun. ""There were supposed to be others,"" she muttered. She lowered her voice to just above a harsh whisper and continued, ""If they aren't here, something must have gone wrong."" Her tone was carefully adjusted not to show her fear, but some anxiety slipped into her voice. +Glancing around as though she thought even the coconut palms might be listening, Toria inquired, ""Is it likely that there's a serious problem? I was really just complaining about having to do all the work myself."" +Gulping back her nerves, Agent Sinclair nodded. ""I know you met Chaz and Jay Jr.,"" she said, practically hissing. ""And I know they seemed like featherbrains to you, but that's how they act when there's a chance they might be overheard."" Agent Sinclair looked over her shoulder. Looking back at Toria, she said solemnly, ""They're actually consummate professionals. I fear the worst."" Hearing the ominous pronouncement, Toria felt a chill run along her spine. +\--The conversation can often carry the mood in these situations. Cutting down on descriptive words outside the speech can make the speech's impact stronger and the writer will be able to ratchet up the intensity more easily if necessary. +Modification: ""There were supposed to be other people watching the exits!"" Toria said. ""What the hell happened to my backup, huh?"" +Agent Sinclair let her hand stray toward her gun. ""There were supposed to be others. If they aren't here, something must have gone wrong."" There was some anxiety into her voice. +Glancing around as though she thought even the coconut palms might be listening, Toria asked, ""Is it likely that there's a serious problem? I was really just complaining about having to do all the work myself."" +Agent Sinclair nodded. ""I know you met Chaz and Jay Jr. And I know they seemed like featherbrains to you, but that's how they act when there's a chance they might be overheard. They're actually consummate professionals. I fear the worst."" Toria felt a chill run along her spine. +04) Your characters don't talk the way people do in real life +This situation is one of the most difficult for me personally. Usually, I read through the conversation I've written and discover that my conversation is full of long paragraphs and it stays perfectly on topic. Breaking up the conversation tends to make it sound more believable; people like to interrupt, and on some level, speakers like to be interrupted during long talks. The interruptions tell them that the audience is engaged and the pauses let them organize what they want to say next. +Original: Kalani took the offered seat and told Maia her story. ""I was only 16 when I got that tattoo. It's not legal to get one at that age in the U.S., but it is in Thailand. That's where I lived for three years. One of my high school friends talked me into getting one with her. When Step-mom found out, she grounded me for a month. +""But I hadn't even started to feel the repercussions of that dumb decision. Every time I went to the beach, people saw it on my lower back. People have preconceived notions of how a girl with a back tat is going to act, of course. They are called 'tramp stamps,' after all. I got so sick of guys thinking I'd be an easy lay and calling me a bitch when I wasn't that I started wearing one-piece swimsuits. +""When I got back to the States, I had the same problem, and it was tougher to deal with. The fashion was tight low-rise pants and crop tops, so everyone could see my back. On top of that, no one--and I mean no one--wore one-pieces to the beach. I started wearing two-pieces again, and getting a lot of shit about my tattoo."" +""How about getting it removed?"" Maia asked. +""Too expensive for me,"" said Kalani. ""But even if it wasn't, I wouldn't do it. There would still be scars. Everyone who saw would still know I'd had a tattoo just above my ass at some time. Hell, most people would probably respect me even less if I removed it. They'd think I'd been a slut when I'd gotten it but I'd reformed when I'd become a single mom or gotten a particularly nasty STD or something like that. Turning the tattoo I have into something different would be less expensive than removal, but it wouldn't help with the basic problem."" +\--One way to change this clunky block of speech would be to simply break it up with questions and observations from the other party. +Modification A: Kalani took the offered seat and told Maia her story. ""I was only 16 when I got that tattoo. It's not legal to get one at that age in the U.S., but it is in Thailand."" +""Yes, I remember you said you used to live there,"" said Maia. ""Were you an exchange student?"" +""My step-mom got sent there for work and the family went with her. We lived there for three years. One of my high school friends talked me into getting one with her. When Step-mom found out, she grounded me for a month."" +""I'm kind of surprised it was only a month,"" Maia said. +""Yeah--and I hadn't even started to feel the repercussions of that dumb decision. Every time I went to the beach, people saw it on my lower back. People have preconceived notions of how a girl with a back tat is going to act, of course. They are called 'tramp stamps,' after all."" +Maia made a face. ""I can imagine,"" she said. +Kalani said, ""I got so sick of guys thinking I'd be an easy lay and calling me a bitch when I wasn't that I started wearing one-piece swimsuits. +""When I got back to the States, I had the same problem, and it was tougher to deal with. The fashion was tight low-rise pants and crop tops, so everyone could see my back. On top of that, no one--and I mean no one--wore one-pieces to the beach."" +""Except for girls five years old and under."" +""You're right. Naturally, I started wearing two-pieces again, and getting a lot of shit about my tattoo."" +""How about getting it removed?"" Maia asked. +""Too expensive for me,"" said Kalani. ""But even if it wasn't, I wouldn't do it. There would still be scars. Everyone who saw would still know I'd had a tattoo just above my ass at some time.

They'd think I'd been a slut when I'd gotten it but I'd reformed when I'd become a single mom or gotten a particularly nasty STD or something like that."" +Maia asked, ""What about disguising it?"" +""Wouldn't work,"" said Kalani. ""Turning the tat into something different would be less expensive than removal, but it wouldn't help with the basic problem."" +\--Another way to change the long blocks of single-person speech would be to have the listener disagree or disapprove at times. Of course, this shouldn't be done if it doesn't fit the character of the listener. Also, the disagreement needs to be minor if it is important to you as the writer to keep the story moving along but you want the main speaker to finish the whole story because it is important to the plot or the character. +Modification B: Kalani took the offered seat and told Maia her story. ""I was only 16 when I got that tattoo. It's not legal to get one at that age in the U.S., but it is in Thailand."" +""Yes, I remember you said you used to live there,"" said Maia. ""Were you an exchange student?"" +""My step-mom got sent there for work and the family went with her. We lived there for three years. One of my high school friends talked me into getting one with her. When Step-mom found out, she grounded me for a month."" +""You didn't ask permission? Shit, I would have grounded you longer! Your step- mom must be pretty cool,"" Maia said. +""Bite me! Anyway, I hadn't even started to feel the repercussions of my dumb decision. Every time I went to the beach, people saw it on my lower back. People have preconceived notions of how a girl with a back tat is going to act, of course. They are called 'tramp stamps,' after all."" +Maia shook her head. ""I feel for you, but you should've seen that coming, huh?"" she asked. +Kalani said, ""I was 16, Miss Perfect! I made a mistake. I paid for it, too: I got sick of guys thinking I'd be an easy lay and calling me a bitch when I wasn't that I started wearing one-piece swimsuits. +""When I got back to the States, I had the same problem, and it was tougher to deal with. The fashion was tight low-rise pants and crop tops, so everyone could see my back. On top of that, no one--and I mean no one--wore one-pieces to the beach."" +""So peer pressure kicked your butt again."" +""I was the new girl in the group. I wonder how you'd have done in my place? So I wore two-pieces and got a lot of shit about my tattoo, same as before."" +""How about getting it removed?"" Maia asked. +""Too expensive for me,"" said Kalani. ""But even if it wasn't, I wouldn't do it. There would still be scars. Everyone who saw would still know I'd had a tattoo just above my ass at some time. Hell, most people would probably respect me even less if I removed it. They'd think I'd been a slut when I'd gotten it but I'd reformed when I'd become a single mom or gotten a particularly nasty STD or something like that."" +Maia asked, ""There must be some solution! What about disguising it?"" +""Wouldn't work,"" said Kalani. ""Turning the tat into something different would be less expensive than removal, but it wouldn't help with the basic problem."" +05) What about when the characters stutter, mumble, groan, sigh, etc.? +As with descriptions inserted into the conversation, it can be easy to overdo the changes in a character's voice when she or he is startled, sleepy, aroused, etc. To much distortion can confuse a reader as well. Less can be more in these cases. +Original: Mrs. Park-Robison let the video play. +""Ooooooh, yessss!"" yelled Jeannette's recorded voice. ""Your tongue's soooo fucking goooood! Eat me, you whoooore! I fucking love youuuuuuuuu!"" +Mrs. Park-Robison said calmly, ""Would you care to explain this, Superintendent?"" +Dr. O'Dell licked her dry lips with her drier tongue. ""I-I'm not sure h-h-how it h-h-h-happened,"" she said. ""I was g-getting a book f-f-from the t-top shelf; I f-fell off the ladder; and m-my mouth someh-h-how l-l-landed on your n-niece's pussy."" +\--To deal with awkward bits of conversation like these, more specific verbs can often help. (For example, changing ""yelled"" to ""moaned"" suggests the long vowel sounds, changing ""said"" to ""stammered"" suggests the difficulty of clearly speaking the consonants.) +Modification A: Mrs. Park-Robison let the video play. +""Oh, yes!"" moaned Jeannette's recorded voice. ""Your tongue's so fucking good! Eat me, you whore! I fucking love you!"" +Mrs. Park-Robison said calmly, ""Would you care to explain this, Superintendent?"" +Dr. O'Dell licked her dry lips with her drier tongue. ""I'm not sure how it happened,"" she stammered. ""I was getting a book from the top shelf; I fell off the ladder; and my mouth somehow landed on your niece's pussy."" +\--Or the verbs could be left the way are, but the sounds themselves could be described. +Modification B: Mrs. Park-Robison let the video play. +""Oh, yes!"" yelled Jeannette's recorded voice, her deep breathing drawing out the vowel sounds. ""Your tongue's so fucking good! Eat me, you whore! I fucking love you!"" +Mrs. Park-Robison said calmly, ""Would you care to explain this, Superintendent?"" +Dr. O'Dell licked her dry lips with her drier tongue. ""I'm not sure how it happened,"" she said. She tripped over some of her words in her nervousness. ""I was getting a book from the top shelf; I fell off the ladder; and my mouth somehow landed on your niece's pussy."" +\--In both modifications, the exact sounds are left for the reader to imagine for herself/himself. The minds of the readers will make these sounds at least as convincing as they would have been if the original passage had been used. +-* I hope these tactics will help you write conversations that you and your readers enjoy! *- +Final Note: Comments, votes, favorites, and other forms of feedback are greatly appreciated! +-* The End *- +Final Note: Comments, votes, favorites, and other forms of feedback are greatly appreciated!

As is the tradition, our first day began with an icebreaker. In this case, it was to list four true facts about yourself and one lie and then see who could guess the lie. In my case I wrote: +1-My 6 year old son is a genius +2-My first job was at McDonalds +3-I've never ridden a bicycle +4-My favorite film is Casablanca +5-I am an internationally known pornographer +Needless to say, all of the other attendees pounced on that last one as my lie but it was, in fact, true. (Number two was my lie. I never worked at McDonalds.) At that point I had been writing and publishing erotica on the Internet for more than a year with most of my fans seeming to be from New Zealand or the UK (based on emails and comments). After the truth came out, it was revealed that several others present had written erotica but never tried publishing it. One sixtyish, happily married woman said she's been writing it secretly for thirty years. Another young lady admitted recently having taken a stab at lesbian fiction. +Writing erotica, specialized as it may be as a genre, is still about writing. This means you will need to have at least a basic understanding of the rules of grammar. Those who know the rules can sometimes break them for effect. Those who break them regularly just come across as unprofessional. If you've not already attained this understanding, go buy a copy of THE ELEMENTS OF STYLE and come back later for the rest of this piece. +When it comes to your subject, you may think you know everything but you will still need to do some research. This does not, however, mean that your research has to come from your life. In fact--no offense--it will probably work out better if it doesn't. Erotica is one genre where the phrase ""Write what you know"" should not really apply. One thing to definitely avoid in your research is the pornographic film. While they maintain a valid place in erotic fantasy, these days they have become so stylized as to have little in common with reality. Reality, though, is something that written erotica needs to have at its heart in order to work. +Read. Not just erotica but all types of fiction. Pay attention to pacing and characterization. Both are governed by different rules in a short story than in a novel. A good working vocabulary is essential, also, but at the same time you never want to oversell it. Typing out line after line of moans and groans is not only not erotic but it becomes a sloppy and boring cheat to the reader. Erotic fiction can be simple or complex but rarely uses words too big for the average reader to recognize. +Don't forget that sex, by definition, is a sensual act and that we all have at least five senses...six depending on how metaphysical you want to get. Don't do them all each time but in order to approximate reality, at some point you will have to describe not just the physical and the visual but the sounds, smells and tastes of what your characters are going through also. Remember, too, that the biggest human sex organ is the brain. Much of the sexual tensions between your characters can and probably should come through when they are not being physically intimate in your story. +Dialogue. Don't just describe what's happening. Have your people talk. When you write dialogue, don't worry about being grammatically correct. Write the way people speak. Read it aloud and if it sounds wrong, change it. If you can't hear it yourself, have a friend read it aloud to you. Where it makes you cringe, fix it. +If you write in third person, stick with that throughout. The third person is the omniscient narrator who usually shows no emotional involvement but can see all of the characters at all times and describe their emotions. If you choose to write in first person, you open up the possibilities of characterization for your narrator but limit yourself to only his or her point of view. Another important thing is tense. Most stories are told in past tense. If you choose to do this, then every single aspect of it needs to continue to be in past tense. Present tense is grating for some but if you choose it, again, make sure to be consistent. +Talk to people. If you're a guy, talk to male friends beyond all the bragging and listen for the actual emotions that come through in everything from long married sex to no-strings attached one night stands. Talk to women friends, too. If they don't perceive you as threatening, you will be absolutely amazed at just how much they're willing to share with you. Use all of this information to make your characters come across as real. Even the most perverted fantasies become more arousing when they are grounded in reality. +Most of all, have fun! Writing erotica is a liberating exercise in creativity. It's hard to hold yourself back and expect any success. Avoid cliches, emphasize character, use proper grammar and realistic dialogue and you, too, can become a successful international pornographer!" +595,The Joy of Sex,rachlou,How To,2008-05-01,2008-05-01,2022-01-04 08:40:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-joy-of-sex,...away from the bedroom.,"['Exhibitionist Couple', 'Outdoor Sex', 'Outside Sex', 'Sex Advice']",4.34,"I feel I should point out a very important fact at the beginning of this light hearted article... + _Not everybody wants to have sex outside of the bedroom!_ +Some folk actually prefer it on a bed. Yes, a nice normal bed. They might actually even leave the lights on from time to time. However, if it was suggested that they have sex (gasp) somewhere different, then much gnashing of teeth would ensue. But I'm not writing this for them. To be frank, those nice people are hardly likely to be perusing stories on Literotica are they? +So, to return to the subject at hand, what are the pro's and con's of engaging in sexual activities outside of the home? +Firstly fun is an important consideration. Basically, anywhere different is always likely to be a turn on -- which of course is the whole point of the exercise. + _Unless of course you're so worried about being arrested, you spend the whole session scanning the horizon for the local law enforcement officers as opposed to actually having an orgasm. In that case, go home and jump under the duvet. You might enjoy it more. Feel free to knit me a scarf while you're there._ +Another important factor to think about is that many people are unable to have sex in their homes and being willing to enjoy carnal activities in a multitude of different locations, means that they may actually get laid occasionally. This unfortunate predicament could be for a variety of reasons -- they might still live with their ultra religious parents, or they could be married to somebody else. Not good. +But what are the disadvantages? +Err...being arrested for lewd behaviour is a good one. Frostbite of one's nether regions is another one. Oh yes, and let's not forget unfortunate encounters with disgruntled wildlife. +But don't let that put you off!

Ooh la la - in your car! +It's probably fair to say that most of us have enjoyed erotic experiences in cars as a rite of passage during our teenage years (but only after we turned eighteen of course!). I hope you (like I), have lots of fond memories as a result. Cars are a very useful mobile bedroom -- not only do they have an inbuilt sound system, but they also have a multitude of storage areas to hold things like condoms, wet wipes and alcohol. +However, comfort levels vary greatly between different makes and models. For example, have YOU ever tried having sex in a Mini? No? Trust me on this -- DON'T! It may seem obvious, but the larger the car and more importantly, the higher the roof, the more comfortable the experience will be. This particularly applies if you are a freak of nature and exceptionally tall. +Vehicles like camper vans are a joy to own when mobile sex is your thing. I once had an email from a guy on a dating website who was most proud of his Volkswagon Camper Van. He figured that advertising himself as 'Clean, discreet, have VW camper and will travel' was guaranteed to make me want to meet him. Sadly his picture indicated he was almost certainly related to Gandalf from Lord of the Rings, so I passed on that delightful opportunity. +Anyway, I digress... +Where were we? Camper vans? Oh yes, wonderful invention! What more could a girl ask for when there is a fold-out bed as well as a kettle to make a cup of coffee post coitus. Let's not forget the portable toilet, too! Wow! Holy crap (no pun intended), I'm really regretting turning down that date with Gandalf now. He was probably hot stuff. +Whilst camper vans are going to be at the 5* end of car-sex, there's no reason to dismiss the guy who shows up in a family saloon. This middle of the range car is more than adequate for a bit of fun. The back seat is likely to be roomy enough and unless the suspension is shot to [bleep], you'll be fine. +Before you get down and dirty, please consider where you're parked. Anywhere remote and secluded is probably a good idea. For God's sake don't get it on in the car park of your local supermarket! (CCTV anyone?) Well, not unless you fancy having a starring spot on Youporn. +Also, this may seem obvious, but don't park in a known area for 'dogging' unless you want audience participation. + **2\. When Nature Calls...** +On a fine summer day, when you and your honey are strolling hand in hand through a scenic country park / forest / nature reserve, what could be more entertaining than stopping for an idyllic picnic and a spot of sweet love making? Not a lot in my book! +Sex in the great outdoors is always entertaining. Nothing beats the feeling of being at one with Mother Nature as you both do what comes naturally. But before I get too carried away, let's consider the practicalities of such an endeavor. +First things first, choose your venue well. The local park might look very pretty, but in all likelihood it will be fairly busy with mums and their offspring, retired folk, and glue-sniffing teenagers. None of these groups of people are likely to be very thrilled at stumbling over your naked backside mid thrust. The mum will scream, the baby will cry, the old woman will hit you with her handbag and the teenager will probably mug you. So don't go there! Your best bet is to pick either a very large park -- think thousands of acres -- or somewhere far more remote. + _I'm not suggesting hiking off into the wilderness just for a quick romp -- hell no, that's far too energetic. By the time you reach the summit of the mountain, chances are you'll be too worn out and oxygen starved to contemplate sex._ +Once you have studied the weather forecast to make certain no blizzards, tornadoes, or other inclement weather systems are due, head out with your lover and a picnic, and make the most of what nature has to offer. +When you have arrived at a suitably secluded spot, check around for anything that might put a dampener on the day. It may seem obvious but animals generally wander around these places too. What looks like a soft grassy area to you might well have been their toilet a few hours ago. Romance is going to be the last thing on your mind after you've sat in a stinking pile of... +Okay, let's not go there. + _And while we're on the subject of 'things not to sit in or on', please look out for nettles, poison ivy, and, depending on which part of the world you live in, poisonous snakes and creepy crawlies. Should a vicious arachnid bite you whilst you're on the job, you'll either be dead or in need of therapy to cure your sex phobia for years after._ +A nice picnic always sets the romantic mood admirably. Add a cool bottle of wine and you'll be well in there. Since you've got the place to yourselves, you can probably indulge in all manner of sexual activities -- so have fun! +However, what happens if you only intended to go for a pleasant walk in the local woods, but the mood caught you and now you're so horny you can't think straight? +Don't despair because this happy chain of events has happened to the best of us. Basically if the mood strikes, just roll with it. Check that nobody is around first (obviously), loosen the appropriate pieces of clothing and, go for it! + _My personal favourite was an observation platform intended for bird watching. It was out of the way, high up, and afforded an excellent view of the surrounding area. (Not that I noticed much wildlife at the time...)_ +What to do in the event it all goes horribly wrong... +\- If you're interrupted by angry wildlife, I suggest you abandon everything and RUN! +\- If the Park Ranger catches you mid tryst, try and appeal to his romantic nature and hope that he lets you off with a caution. If not, try and see the funny side of it when you're banged up in the local jail -- you'll be dining out on that story for years. +\- If you didn't listen to my previous advice and WERE stung or bitten by something nasty, pray very hard that the local clinic has some anti venom handy. + **3\. Lights...action...camera? (Well hopefully not!)** +Traditionally the cinema is a venue where couples go on a date to watch an all-action blockbuster or chick-flick. This may seem like an excellent way to spend your evening, but wait just a minute -- why get all hot and bothered watching some flimsily clad actress getting soft-core laid, when you and your sweetie can have a little fun in the dark instead? +Cinemas were custom designed for naughty antics. Not only do you have subdued lighting and relatively comfy seats, but you also have background noise that will helpfully camouflage any moaning and panting sounds you may inadvertently make. +On the down side, you also have other people present. (Not that I'm suggesting this is a bad thing -- hell, exhibitionism is definitely kinky -- but not everybody is as open minded as you or I). The best way round this particular problem is to pick a film that you know will be fairly unpopular. + _So don't choose the latest horror franchise showing at the multiplex! Whilst the sound of bone sawing and screaming will almost certainly drown out your orgasmic groaning, it is unlikely that the rest of your seating row will turn a blind eye. Being thrown out by management while still pulling your pants up might prove to be a tad embarrassing!_ +The key to success is plan ahead. +Okay, you've selected a film that you know nobody else in his or her right mind will want to watch (subtitled, obscure Japanese films are a safe bet). Now all you need to think about is what you're going to wear. +In my experience (ahem, did I say that?), a front opening dress works rather well. It allows discrete access whilst covering up easily in the event of suspicious observers. Basically anything that allows quick and easy access works a treat. +Having full penetrative sex in a cinema may prove to be difficult -- but please feel free to try! Blowjobs are easy to perform discretely -- just make sure you buy the super-size popcorn first as this is an effective aid to hiding her head bobbing up and down in your lap. Oh yeah, and it helps if she is happy to swallow. Cum splattered all over your shirt when you make an exit is likely to draw unwanted attention. +This is all well and good for you, but what about her? Not a problem! There is usually plenty of scope for touching, and if she wants oral, you should be able to accidentally 'drop' something before crouching on the floor for a while. It may not be all that comfortable kneeling in the remains of somebody's half eaten hotdog -- but trust me, she'll thank you for your selfless sacrifice. +In the unfortunate event that your sweetie is utterly riveted by the obscure Japanese subtitled movie you selected, then you'll just have to wait until you get her into your car for the drive home... (See above for details) + **4\. Planes...Trains...and Buses!** +Most of us have used public transport at one time or another -- unless you're lucky enough to have limo and driver at your service - and there is definitely something rather kinky about the idea of 'getting it on' in a train or plane. + _Anybody remember that erotic scene from 'Risky Business' where Tom Cruise and Rebecca De Mornay have fun on a late night train? No? Okay, it's just me then..._ +Of course it is important to remember that the risk of being caught by a vigilant member of staff is rather high -- but this element of danger is what makes the thrill so delicious. If it were normal to engage in sexual antics whilst commuting in the early morning train -- who would bother? It would be no fun at all! +Planes represent the ultimate thrill. Most folk would be understandably proud to say they were a card carrying member of the Mile High Club. Besides, what else is there to do on long haul flights apart from sleep and eat? It's not as if there is a Porn Channel amongst the in-flight movies on offer. +So, besides ogling the cabin staff and drinking copious amounts of alcohol, what else can we do mid Atlantic? And NO, I wasn't thinking of a soduku puzzle. We can have some fun is the correct answer. +If by now you're frowning at the computer screen and saying, ""Hey! Wait a minute! How the hell can I have sex when I'm squashed into an economy seat and surrounded by a contingent of nuns from the Sisters of Mercy Convent??"" +The answer to that is -- you should have paid the extra for a seat in business class! Doh! + _Of COURSE it's nigh on impossible to get lucky on a charter flight to Costa del Pussy. Well, unless you and your missus can fit in the toilet -- good luck to you if so. Frankly the Karma Sutra would have its work cut out devising a sexual position guaranteed to work in there - and that's without tripping every single alarm designed to warn the cabin crew of impending meltdown._ +No, business class (or first class if you're loaded) is the way to go. Here in the more luxurious section of the plane, seating is spacious and there are unlikely to be irritating children running up and down the aisles. +The best time to have some fun on a long haul flight is at night. While the rest of the passengers are blissfully asleep and the cabin crew are busy doing cabin crew things, you and your honey can take advantage of the relative privacy a complimentary blanket affords. It's amazing what a person can get away with beneath a blanket. +As long as you are quiet and don't get too carried away, you should be fine. If your lady is a screamer, it's probably best to shove something in her mouth at an opportune moment - your cock perhaps? +You can probably get away with touching, hand jobs -- and if you're careful, even oral sex. I would say full on sex is probably harder (pun intended) since there would be more movement involved. But where there's a will, there is always a way! +If you can manage it, try spooning behind her as she faces away from you. From this position, with the aid of the blanket, you might be able to gain rear entry and still pretend you are sleeping. Movement will be obviously be restricted, but both of you should still enjoy it. +Potential disaster scenarios... +Apart from the toilet minefield already touched upon, the main danger here is being caught out by someone. Using the excuse that you have a flying phobia and that sex is the only way to prevent you from having screaming hysterics, might work. On the other hand, being arrested upon touchdown is the more likely outcome. +Trains are a little more suited to sexual shenanigans. Catching a sleeper train offers you private sleeping areas and you should have no problem reaching orgasm before being rocked to sleep. Subway trains are more fraught with problems. Whilst late night services are likely to be fairly deserted, there is always the possibility of some drunken nutcase interrupting any naughtiness when he stumbles into your previously empty carriage. +Should you be feeling more adventurous, you could probably try having fun on the commute into work. Just be very careful that the person you're groping is actually the person you intended to grope. It could be a shock to realise that you've just thrust your hand between the legs of a six foot two homicidal man, as opposed to your sweetheart. But don't worry as emergency exits are usually designed to work very efficiently. +Buses offer the same problems as other public transport -- namely over vigilant staff and a lack of privacy. Late night buses are often packed out with drunken revellers, but you may get away with some heavy petting on the backseat since it's far enough away from the driver not to draw his attention too easily. +Long distance coach travel can work better. Late at night with a convenient blanket covering any potentially naked flesh, you can manage more than you might think. Just try the things recommended in the 'planes' section, but remember there is less room for manoeuvring. + _Important note -- make sure you know where the bus is going to be stopping en route. It would be less than satisfactory to be in the final throes of passion, only for the driver to pull into a service station and adjacent passengers awaken to realise what you're up to. You really wouldn't want to find yourself thrown off and forced to hitchhike the next two hundred miles... Would you??_ + **5\. Breast Stroke -- wet fun at the pool...** +If you've taken a trip down to the municipal pool recently, you'll probably be aware of how busy it can get - most of the time the water will be heaving with obnoxious kids and their annoying parents. This means that swimming, let alone any other 'fun' will be nigh on impossible. It makes more sense to check the timetable first and pick a slot when the pool is for adult use only. +Even then, the place is likely to be pretty busy, but since I'm not about to suggest that you add any of your bodily fluids to the teeming levels of bacteria already in the pool, you don't need to worry. The pool is strictly foreplay. +You can spend some time in the water with your sweetheart, admiring the cut of her swimsuit and building up anticipation for some fun to follow. Just be careful not to spend too much time ogling any other buxom ladies in the vicinity -- all that will do is ensure you end up going home alone. +Once you've swum a little and teased a lot, it's time to head for the showers. I'm assuming that the showers and changing rooms are communal -- if they're not, you may as well skip the next part as this section won't be applicable. +Take advantage of shower time as an opportunity to apply liberal amounts of shower gel to your beloved's wet body. As long as you don't spend ages openly fondling her breasts, you should get away with it. However, do keep an eye on other pool users and life guards -- you don't want a lifetime ban from using the facilities. +Once you are both at the point where all pretence of washing has been abandoned, grab your stuff and head for a changing cubicle. Now you are in the privacy of your own cramped space, you can do what you've been thinking about for the last hour or two. Strip those wet clothes off and fuck each other silly. +Be careful not to bang too hard on the partition walls -- in my experience they tend to be a little flimsy. Suddenly realising the walls have collapsed and the whole pool is mesmerised by the sight of your lover bent over the bench with you balls deep inside her, is probably something that will stay burned into your memory for a very long time, although for all the wrong reasons. + _If the worst does happen, don't despair -- you can always blame your alarming shrinkage on the sub-zero pool temperature._ + **6\. Private Dancer - Clubs and Pubs** +It goes without saying that the dark, alcohol soaked atmosphere of the average club is more than suited to late night fumbling in secluded corner booths. If it wasn't, trillions of relationships would never have left the starting blocks. +I'm sure most of you can be proud of at least one conquest in a pub or club. The rest of you probably just blocked the sordid memory from your minds. But in this instance, I'm not talking about a dangerous liaison with somebody you picked up twenty minutes ago. No, I'm thinking more along the lines of an erotic encounter with your other half, hidden from view in a shadowy corner of some discrete pub or club. +If you're looking for some fun on a night out, it is probably wiser to wait until most patrons are extremely drunk and the bar staff are tired enough not to care. Pick your venue well -- it is best to avoid the more upmarket places as they are likely to take a dim view on punters getting laid in the corner. +Try a seedier establishment, although preferably not one where half of the clientele are charging by the hour for their services. Choose a seating area off the main route between bar and toilet, and nowhere near the coat check. This should ensure that nobody is likely to wander past unless they are sitting nearby. Once you have made sure that any people in the vicinity are too pissed to care what is happening around them, you can get up to pretty much anything. +An excellent way of having some fun (whilst remaining discrete) it is for your lover to sit in your lap. It looks fairly innocuous to anyone casually glancing at you, but if she is wearing a skirt, you can easily engage in full, penetrative sex, with nobody else any the wiser. +Pick a moment when some very loud music is blasting out at one hundred and twenty decibels. This way, should either of you decide to get a little more vocal in your appreciation of the moment, the loud shrieking will be attributed to the latest thrash metal sensation. Most people tend to look away when couples are busily engaged in heavy petting -- so you should be fairly safe from interested observers. +Just be careful that the drunken idiot staggering past doesn't suddenly decide he fancies a threesome. + _Please note that I haven't suggested any action in the toilets. This is sordid and disgusting since most toilets in pubs and clubs are less than hygienic late at night. You might be feeling drunk and horny, but you soon won't be when you slip in a puddle of vomit and find yourself in A &E with a broken leg._ + **7\. Other weird and wonderful locations for the more discerning outdoor lover.** +Now I can't claim to have tried any of these, but simply for novelty value they have to be worth a go! Feel free to test them out and let me know how you get along. +Zoo -- Who can resist the reptile house? Hot, steamy and guaranteed to arouse a girl with a passion for crocodile skin accessories! +Farm -- Haylofts and stables. Don't know about you, but all I need to do is think about a strapping young stable lad with a handy riding crop and I'm half way there already... +Theme Park -- Rollercoaster rides involving mutual masturbation and adrenaline. What a rush! +Planetarium -- Make her see stars while you both...see stars! +Theatre -- Enjoy a climactic final act guaranteed to raise the roof. +Restaurant -- Give her a creamy dessert before the starter is even over. +* * * +Happy fornicating, folks! +* * * + _Authors note: This author accepts no responsibility for any nasty experiences resulting from taking my advice. All scenarios to be attempted at your own risk._ +Oh yes, and since this a contest decided on votes, yours is always appreciated! :)" +596,JT's Guide,jthammerhead,How To,2016-07-16,2016-07-22,2022-01-04 08:35:33,3,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/jts-guide-eating-pussy,1. The basics of learning how to orally pleasure a woman. 2. Some thoughts on how to find and stimulate the clit. 3. An exploration on finding and stimulating the G-spot.,"['Climax', 'Clit', 'Clitoris', 'G-Spot', 'Going Down', 'How To', 'Oral', 'Orgasm', 'Pussy']",4.48,"Let's start with the name. First off, it's about as accurate as ""blowjob."" There isn't any blowing going on, but there sure is a lot of sucking. Same thing with eating pussy, you certainly aren't eating it. You might be licking it or fingering it, but your main point of focus should be the clit. Yep, the pussy has little to do with a woman's climax. You may think you are performing magic with your cock, but in reality you are stimulating nerves which all tie in to the clit. She needs that stimulation to cum. Sure, fucking feels good, but the icing on the cake is the orgasm. If you want your woman to cum, you have to work the clit. +You may say that is nonsense, that your woman always cums when you fuck. Sure, maybe she is one of the very few who needs little to no stimulation on her clit to cum. There are women out there who could come from just playing with their tits. I have met a couple who could get almost all the way there from just spending time caressing their tits and sucking and playing with their nipples. But that type of woman is rare. If your woman says you make her cum when you fuck, she is either unusual or a liar. Don't get me wrong, it feels good, but it is very uncommon for a woman to cum from JUST fucking. Accept that and let's move on. (Oh, yes, it is possible to make a woman cum from stimulating the G-spot, but read my separate story on that.) +So, are you still with me? Did my challenge to your assumptions not scare you off? Then perhaps you really do want to do right by your woman. Congratulations! You are about as common as a woman who cums without clitoral stimulation. Yes, you may get tired of being reminded of that, but it is key. +I guess I should acknowledge there might be women reading this who want some tips on how to perform oral on their partners. Welcome! I apologize in advance if this is geared more towards men, but usually women are better because they know what feels good to them. Men don't have that advantage, so need more help. But there will certainly be information here that you can use. +Let's start with the most important part of giving pleasure to your partner, and that is being able to read the signs. You need to learn how your partner's breathing changes, how her muscles tense, how her head moves, what her hands are doing, what she is saying, or not saying. If her feet are doing a rhythm on your back, she MIGHT be approaching an orgasm. +You have to pay attention. Sometimes these changes can be subtle. Many women are shy about telling their partner what to do and what feels good. Maybe they think it comes across as being bossy, or as criticizing you. Have a conversation with your partner before you start. Tell her you are trying to learn how to do a better job of making her cum. She'll appreciate that. It may take her a while to learn to communicate her needs, and some women never will. But be patient and listen to what she tells you. Women can be as subtle in the bedroom as they are out of the bedroom. We sometimes have to read between the lines to know what they really want. +The second most important factor is speed. Do you like it when a woman puts your cock in her mouth and is off to the races, her head bobbing up and down in a blur? Few men do. We like that slow, seductive blowjob, watching her take it down inch by inch, licking her way, making eye contact as she slowly devours your cock. She may lick along the side and underneath, playing with the head with her tongue before she slowly swallows it again. Then she... Oh wait, sorry, got carried away there. This isn't about blowjobs. But there are similarities. She is paying attention to what you react to. You should do the same. And go SLOW! The seduction is part of the process. +Now having said that, sure there are times when you just go in and get it done. Just as there are times when you are both horny as fuck and just need it. You may not even get undressed, just unzip, pull them down and fuck. Five minutes later it is over and you both feel good. Same thing here, if you have been on a date and flirting all night, kissing and playing touchy feely, she may just want you to get down there and make her cum. Once again, it is about reading the signs. More often than not, she will appreciate you taking your time. +So let's say you have her in the bedroom, or wherever your favorite place for doing the dirty is. What do you do? How do you start? Start at the top, literally. She needs to be worked up. Nothing good ever happens dry. Begin with the kiss. Draw her to you and kiss her slowly, passionately. Put your soul into your kiss. Too many men, and women, don't think about what they are doing when they kiss. You are communicating. Is it a kiss on the cheek in the morning by the coffee pot? Is it a quick peck as you head out the door? Is it a long, lingering kiss as you leave on a business trip that says ""I'll miss you and can't wait to be back?"" Each one of those is communicating your emotions, your thoughts at that moment. If your intention is to make magic with your mouth, then start with the kiss. Let her know your intentions by how you kiss her. It is the ultimate foreshadowing of what is to come. (See what I did there?) +All joking aside, give it your all from the very start. Communicate your intentions with your kiss, your hands, your eyes. From the beginning, let her know that you have a treat in store for her. Take her in your arms and embrace her, body and soul. If you are giving less than 100%, don't bother. I'm assuming you want to do this well or you wouldn't be reading this. There are some men who aren't interested in giving oral to their partner, but they are NOT my target audience. So I'll ignore them. Likewise there may be some women who truly don't enjoy receiving oral. However, many women who say that have never had a partner who did it well. Sex may do more for them. If your partner says she doesn't like oral, have a conversation with her about it. What part of it doesn't she like? Does it feel dirty? Is she worried about her own hygiene? Is she nervous about you getting up close and personal with her pussy? Talk to her about it. Try to find ways to ease her anxiety. Sometimes a couple of stiff drinks will do it. I don't mean get her drunk, but take the edge off, release some inhibitions so she is more relaxed about giving it a try. Every woman is different, so if she has some issues with you going down on her, you are going to have to work that out on your own. I don't know her, you do. Can't help you there. +Assuming your partner is open to the idea (or more likely has been begging you to do it), let's begin. Make sure you have plenty of time. This can't be rushed. The best orgasms come from a slow build. You may spend 20 or 30 minutes before you even touch her pussy. I promise you, if you do that, she will be craving your tongue by then. If your partner likes romance, light a couple of candles, put on some mood music, take the kids to the baby sitter. No interruptions, no excuses, no rushing. +Even though YOU shouldn't, let's jump right to the good stuff now. If you want to know more about the seduction process, check out my other stories. So you have her in the bedroom and her clothes are off. Time to jump in and start licking that pussy like it's a cherry popsicle. WRONG! You still work your way there. If your partner isn't ticklish, massage her feet, kiss her toes. If she is really into having her feet played with, you can even suck on them. Treat her whole body as a receptacle for your attention. Rest her foot on your shoulder and caress her calves. Run your hands up and down her legs, kissing them and moving closer in as you do. Place her legs back down onto the bed and push them apart. Look into your partner's eyes as you do. Communicate the desire you feel for her. It's amazing what a difference that makes. +As you begin to bend down, rub your face along her inner thigh. Kiss her gently there, just soft, slow kisses. Again, if she is ticklish you might need to skip this and move on. Most women lose some of their sensitivity to tickling once they become aroused, so if you took your time getting here, she might still enjoy it. Give it a try. +Continue the kissing as you work yourself closer to her crotch. Stop at the crease of her leg and kiss and lick her there. Tease her with your tongue in that crease the same way you plan on teasing her when you get to her pussy. Spend a little time there and then slowly move your mouth toward her wet spot. When you are only about an inch or so away, taking your time of course, move as if you are going to put your mouth on her, but skip right over to the other side. Gently exhale as you cross over so she can feel your breath on her skin. Do what you just did, but in reverse. Start kissing her leg at the crease while your hands caress her thigh. Kiss your way to her knee, nuzzling your cheek against her from time to time as you go. Mix it up: kiss, lick, nuzzle, caress. +Once you have made the entire trip down and up, begin the journey once more, slowly approaching her mound. This time instead of crossing over, hesitate over the sweet spot and lower your face so your nose grazes her pussy lips. Let it slide up and down, just lightly teasing her. Again, blow gently as you are doing this. If she is getting wet by now, this may make a chill run through her. NOTE: Never blow air inside of her. This can rarely cause problems, but it's best to just not do it. It probably doesn't do anything for her anyway. +Move your nose up so it passes over her clit. If she is still not fully aroused, you may have a hard time knowing exactly where it is. So just rubbing in the general area is fine. Now that your mouth is over her pussy lips, kiss them gently and softly, more tease than full contact. Let her know you appreciate her pussy and that you treat it with reverence. At this point, she may push herself up against you or use her hands to pull you down into her. If so, just turn your head and kiss her thighs. YOU control the pace. +You can also bring your hand up and rub across her pussy too, keeping your fingers together, using a circular motion. Also move from side to side with just enough pressure to make her pussy lips rub against each other. Alternate between kissing and rubbing. Pay attention to her body language now. Is she starting to move a little bit? Is her breathing changing? Is she saying anything to you? If you are teasing appropriately, you will notice something. She will be wanting more. Make her wait, but not too long. You can do the kissing and rubbing for a couple of minutes, but then it is time to get more serious with your work. +As you are rubbing her pussy, let a finger separate and glide between her pussy lips, not deeply, but definitely getting between them. Just the tip of your finger should be stroking her, and only for a couple of times before you straighten it back out and rub and kiss some more. Repeat this a few times, alternating between rubbing, sliding your finger between her lips, and kissing. Her juices should be flowing well now. At this point, one of the times you are kissing her pussy, let your tongue duplicate what your finger was doing. Glide it along her slit, then lick the outside of her labia. Kiss them and take them between your lips and gently suck and pull. Be careful with your teeth. You don't like them and neither does she. +She should be reacting in some way as you begin licking her slit. Again, pay attention to her sounds and movements. Is she holding her breath at times? She likes what you are doing. Does she exhale sharply and quickly? That was either very sensitive or painful. If her exhalation is followed by ""Stop that motherfucker!"" then you will know which. If you are going slowly and focusing on being gentle, it's likely you hit a spot on her that is sensitive. She might not be ready for too much stimulation there yet. Take notes and save that spot for later. +After giving generous attention to her labia and slit, tease her entrance with the tip of your tongue. Flick over it slowly, then quickly, even inserting the tip (just the tip) inside her. But you are still at the teasing stage, so nothing more. If she is reacting well to this, then let's move to the next step. If she isn't reacting well to this, go back and read again. Either you aren't taking your time or you aren't being gentle enough. +During one of the trips your tongue takes between her labia, keep going up. When you get to the top, bring your tongue back into your mouth and go back to kissing. If you know where her clit is, then go ahead and kiss VERY lightly on it, and then kiss all around it. If you don't know where her clit is, then you are about to go hunting. At the top of her slit, sometimes just above it, but usually right at the top, her clit is nestled in among loose skin. It isn't as much as her labia, but it will feel different. The clitoris is made of the same type of tissue as your penis. It will swell and stick out when aroused. You thought all that foreplay up to this point was just for her? No buddy, it's also to make your life easier. If she is aroused, it is much more prominent. If you need more direction than this, check out my other stories. +Use your tongue around the edges, but not on her clit yet. Remember the clit is sensitive, even when she is fully aroused. Many women can't take direct pressure or heavy stimulation on the clit until right before orgasm. You need to work up to it. Kissing it lightly is fine, and you should. Let your tongue play around it, with the top of your tongue and the bottom of your tongue grazing it as you swirl around. To compare it to a blowjob, treat her clit the way your partner teases the head of your cock with her tongue, swirling around it, licking gently, and sucking on the head. I can't emphasize enough to take it SLOW! If you are circling her clit with your tongue, the trip should take a good 5 count at minimum, and even a 10 count is ok. You can vary direction from clockwise to counterclockwise every few swirls. You can also pause the circling and just swipe back and forth above, below, or to the side of the clit. Even occasionally leave it completely and go down to kiss and lick her slit. Just don't stay gone long. This is what you have been working toward. +A well-known comedian when I was younger used to tell men to lick the alphabet. If you have nothing else in your bag of tricks, that's ok, but purely beginner stuff. The first time I tried that, my partner laughed at me. That's not to say there isn't something to be learned. Some letters, like A, C, D, G, J, O, S, and U, can give you an idea for different movements. Vary your technique. Don't do the same thing for very long, and by long I mean no more than 30 seconds tops! You will just desensitize that area. If you find a spot or a method that she reacts strongly to, repeat it for just a few seconds and move on, but remember where you were at and what you were doing. We'll come back to it when she is closer to orgasm. If she vocally tells you ""don't stop"" or ""right there"" or ""yes!"" or something similar, you are doing your job right. Go ahead and stay there for a bit or she'll learn not to give you feedback. Satisfy her request, but then move on to something else. +Hopefully by now you have been slowly licking and teasing for a few minutes. Her body should be moving a little bit and her breathing should be heavier. Is her clit becoming more pronounced? Great! If not, that's ok. Some women have very shy clits that don't announce themselves. Somewhere though, you should feel the harder tissue. Is she not responding much at all? Try using your finger for a little bit, using the same technique of lightly grazing the top and circling around. Maybe your partner needs more pressure and stimulation. Experiment with that, flick your tongue harder across her clit. Not too hard, you aren't trying to flick a quarter across the room. Just place your tongue firmly against her nub and flick it back and forth. As you pass across, there should be just light resistance as your tongue catches on the side before popping loose and sliding over. Still do this slowly, almost agonizingly slow. You want her always wanting more before you give it to her. +Now you can begin to work toward the payoff, her orgasm. From the time you began kissing her feet and legs up to now, at least 10 - 15 minutes have passed. If you can be patient enough to tease longer, that is even better. Ideally you spend 20 to 30 minutes before you hit the final stages prior to orgasm. Working your partner up to orgasm slowly and holding them just shy of it for a few minutes can lead to a much stronger and longer orgasm. It also makes it easier to give her more. Oh, you say she isn't multi-orgasmic? We'll get to that another time. +While you are still slowly playing with her clit using your tongue, let your finger go back to sliding along her slit. Use her wetness to judge how stimulated she is getting. You can start to tease her with your finger, letting the tip play around the entrance to her pussy. Begin to increase the pressure from your tongue. Instead of circling the clit, you can begin to lick it itself. First lightly flick your tongue back and forth across it, side to side, up and down, again going very slowly. Do that a few times and then circle it again. Alternate between these, paying attention to her body language. Does she take a breath when you flick across it? Does her body stiffen? Both are good signs. But they can also mean she is still sensitive there. If so, back off for a moment, but don't give up. Tease her for another minute or two and then try again. +You will have to learn for yourself how to interpret her body language. Women are similar in many ways, but they are also different. What works for my partner might not work for yours. The secret is learning to read your partner and change your technique to suit them. It takes practice, but this might be the most fun practice you'll ever have. ""Hey honey, can you meet me in the bedroom? I need to practice!"" +Let's get back to work. You are giving her more direct stimulation to her clit, and she is responding well. You hear her moaning or breathing heavily. You can feel the muscles in her pelvis contracting and releasing. She is getting close. Now is the time to recall those spots you may have hit earlier that she responded strongly to. Anytime she vocalized her approval or reacted in any positive way, you need to hit those spots again. Let your finger slide inside her. If you know where her G-spot is, begin to put a little pressure there and alternate with some light rubbing. We'll talk more about the G-spot another time. +Use your lips to suck on her clit if you can. Some women's clits don't extend far enough, even when fully aroused, to accomplish this. If that's the case, you can still nibble, but with your lips, not your teeth! Do it slowly and gently. You are just trying something different to add some variety. A few women really enjoy this, so see how she reacts. Continue varying the technique, from licking around the clit, swiping it with the broad side of your tongue as you circle it, and flicking your tongue across it. As you do each one, monitor how your partner reacts. Whichever she reacts strongest to, that is going to be your finishing move. Usually it is the direct stimulation right on the clit that will do it, but not always. During the buildup, we have emphasized going slow. You can finally begin to increase the speed. In the teasing stages, you should be taking 5 - 10 seconds to circle her clit. As you build, you can speed up, but still taking 2 or 3 seconds to make the circle. Same thing for the flicking your tongue across her clit. When you first do it, think of the beat to a slow Marvin Gaye song. You don't know who Marvin Gaye is? Stop right now and go look him up and listen to some of his music. Done? Ok, let's move on. +Where was I? Oh yes, when you start, you should be flicking your tongue at a rate similar to your circling, taking a full second or two to fully swipe across it. Going even slower is ok too, just don't go to sleep down there or put her to sleep. As things build up, you can double or triple your speed, flicking your tongue at 2 - 3 fps (flicks per second). When you can tell from her body language or something more subtle like ""Fuck! I'm gonna cum!"" you can speed up. Don't speed up until you are in the last couple of minutes or so before climax. If you start too soon, she will lose the edge you have been building. You've worked hard, don't lose it now. +So your partner is right on the edge and you want to push her over. Again, don't stick completely with one technique, alternate swirls and flicks. Variation is key, not only for her but for you. If you have been at this for 10 or 15 minutes, your tongue may get tired. Varying the motions helps your tongue have staying power. One tip, don't extend it too far. Don't try fucking her pussy with your tongue. Unless you are Gene Simmons (You don't know who he is either? Hell I give up!), you aren't going to really accomplish much. Teasing just the entrance is fine. Then when you are licking her, get your head down in there, right up against her. That way your tongue doesn't need to extend much. In fact, when you are using the flat part of your tongue, you don't need to extend at all. You can move your head that way instead of always moving your tongue. Keep it close and it will last longer. +The closer she gets to orgasm, the more you concentrate on flicking. Your finger is inside her, not drilling in and out like your dick, but rubbing the inside of her pussy. You do have your hand palm up with the finger bent like you are motioning someone to come here, right? Well do it! Then rub that finger over the rough tissue you find about one knuckle in on the front side (give or take an inch). Increase the pressure there as you increase it with your tongue. Your speed should be about 4 - 5 fps now. As you feel her body tense, preparing to spasm into orgasm, bear down. Don't let her get away from you if she is a squirmer. Be prepared to move with her. Plan ahead. Brace your feet against the footboard or the wall so you can have some leverage. When you are ready to make her cum, start flicking your tongue rapidly and firmly. With your finger, press hard against her pussy wall and rub. You may feel a ridge there. If you do, move your finger back and forth over the ridge. The nerves in her pussy and her G-spot are all tied together. By working the clit and the G-spot simultaneously, the orgasm will be stronger. +You should get a strong reaction from the stimulation. Don't let up immediately though. When you feel the orgasm rippling through her and she is calling out to her deity like a revival preacher, you have reached lift off. Power through the entire orgasm. That is why you prepare yourself, so you can stay with her. Don't stop licking when you feel her start to cum. Stop when she has finished cumming. Same with your finger. As she winds down, then ease up, especially with the tongue. She can become very sensitive after a climax, so pay attention. If she jumps when you touch her, stop. You can rest your tongue against her clit with no movement. If she can tolerate a little bit, then continue. Slow your finger down, but you can keep rubbing there. That isn't an area that gets sensitive with an orgasm. In fact, that is your key to bringing her to a second, and a third... +Congratulations! You have successfully brought your partner to orgasm using your mouth. There are other things to consider. Is she a squirter? Do you want to work toward her being multi-orgasmic? Do you want to learn how to give a solely G-spot orgasm? There is always more to learn. +From time to time, make the event focus only on her. Let her know up front there is no expectation for you. She can concentrate on enjoying her orgasm and not be thinking about returning the favor. Often you will find fucking after oral sex to be very pleasurable. But don't make it a requirement, a ritual. Just as variety is essential during oral sex, it is essential to your sex life in general. If you always fuck after going down on her, she may be distracted and thinking about that instead of just focusing on her own orgasm. Also, don't take it personally if she reaches down to help you out. Remember she knows EXACTLY what feels good. Watch what she does and learn from it. Involving a toy can also be fun, whether it is a long vibrator to fuck her with or a small one to vibrate against her clit. +Your most sexual organ is your brain. Use it to your advantage. Mix it up. Try new things. Take your time. Pay attention to what your partner is telling you, verbally and through body language. Over time, you will learn the little clues and know exactly when she is ready to cum. You'll get better. But most importantly, HAVE FUN! + +" +597,K.I.S.S.: P.O.V.,Gaelfling,How To,2008-04-06,2008-04-06,2022-01-04 08:35:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/k-i-s-s-p-o-v,Different P.O.V.s and how to use them.,['Pov'],4.17,"_I've come to a conclusion: The number of half-way decent stories on Literotica are few and far between. I want to remedy that._ +I'm young, but I've been writing since the third grade, reading romances since the sixth, and erotica for several years now. No, I don't have any actual stories posted here, but as someone I greatly admire said, ""You don't have to be a chef to know when a restaurant has a bad one."" In other words, I may not be highly qualified, but I'll be damned if I don't know good writing when I read it. + **Note:** This is not a series of articles on how to write erotica. This is a series of articles on how to write, period. These are the things to keep in mind in ANY writing situation, whether it's your newest story for Literotica or the English paper due in a few hours or the children's book you want to get published so you can have a little money in your pocket. + **K.I.S.S.: Point of View** +Let's keep it simple, shall we? +The point of view, or P.O.V., is the narrator. The narrator is not—I repeat, NOT—the author. The author is the one who puts down onto paper—or, in this case, computer document—what the narrator is saying. The narrator is the one telling the story. I would say that the author should never, ever, interject his/her own voice into the narrator's story, but there are a few exceptions: authors of parodies, satires, and other humorous stories can use it quite effectively. +If you aren't writing a parody, satire, or humorous story? Don't do it. It's that simple. +Now, as most of you probably know, though _all_ of you should know this, there are four types of P.O.V., though many people say there are only three. They are as follows: + **1\. 1st person** (""I"") +The narrator is telling one of the characters, and is the one telling the story. I consider this one to be the most intimate P.O.V., since it allows the readers to get into the very mind of the narrator. The readers know what the character is thinking, doing, saying, and feeling, all the time. Every sentence, every _word_ , is that of the character. Thus, a character usually ends up having a very strong voice in first person, because the story is utterly saturated with that character. Warning: there is a lack of omnipotence in first person, by necessity, as the story (generally) follows only one character. +Ex: +""I walked slowly down the hallway, shivering in the cold air. Cold fingers brushed against the back of my neck and I screamed as I spun around, ready to face whatever danger was behind me..."" + **2\. 2nd person** (""You"") +Yes, second person does exist, but it's rarely used very effectively (a.k.a. well), though I have a friend who assures me that he's read plenty; but that may be because he's a big gamer, so by necessity he's read some good ones. I haven't, however—not unless you count those Pick-Your-Own-Path adventure books back from third grade. And I've yet to find a single good one here at Literotica, though I'm sure one exists...somewhere... +At any rate, second person employs the use of ""you,"" making your readers your narrator. I'd advise avoiding this one; it's great for something like this (haven't you noticed how many ""you""s I've already used?), but in narrative form? Please don't. +If you decide to ignore my advice, use the present tense with it. It doesn't usually work well otherwise. (An article on tenses will appear in a while, once I brush up on my own skills.) +Ex: +""You walk slowly down the hallway, shivering as the cold air hits your skin. Cold fingers brush against the back of your neck, and you scream as you spin around, ready to face whatever danger is behind you..."" + **3\. 3rd person limited** (""He/She/It"") +You should notice that this one and the last one are both called third person, but the last word tacked on the end makes all the difference. In both, the narrator is not one of the characters. In third limited, however, the narrator chooses to focus on one character's actions, words, and ideas (this one is also called ""over the shoulder"" P.O.V.). Therefore, the readers are not saturated with one character as they are with first person, but it is the more intimate version of third person. +Ex: +""She walked slowly down the hallway, shivering in the cold air. She screamed and spun around as cold fingers brushed against the back of her neck..."" + **4\. 3rd person omniscient (""He/She/It"")** +And this is third person omniscient. As is suggested by that last word, the narrator of this one is all-knowing, rather like the God of the story. Instead of focusing on one character, the narrator will bounce around from one to the other (but try to do it smoothly, hmmm?). This is the one I use most often in my own writing, because frankly I like playing God. Goddess. Whatever. +Ex: +""She walked slowly down the hallway, shivering in the cold air. The man grinned as she walked past, and reached out to gently skim his cold fingers over the back of her neck. She screamed and spun around, ready to face the danger behind her..."" +Once you pick the P.O.V. that you think will work best for you, _stick with it_. Do NOT change P.O.V.s in the middle of a story; you will throw your readers off balance, and they will not appreciate that. I know I get cranky when authors do it, even published, very famous ones, such as Robert Louis Stevenson (Treasure Island), Barbara Kingsolver (The Bean Trees), and Charles Dickens (Bleak House). +There are a few exceptions: if your story is a series of letters, and each written by a different person, then switch P.O.V.s if the narrator changes; if your story has a frame—that is, Bob (3rd limited) is telling the story of Mary from her P.O.V. (1st)—then switch P.O.V.s. +If neither of these examples apply to your story? Don't switch P.O.V.s. It's that simple. + _The next article I'll be working on is K.I.S.S.: SDT, and other basic writing rules._" +598,Keeping Your Better Half Happy,dirtyjoe69,How To,2006-07-19,2006-07-19,2022-01-04 08:35:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/keeping-your-better-half-happy,How to stay in love or how not to piss off your better half.,"['Love', 'Tips', 'Trouble']",4.51,"Hey it is DirtyJoe again, and today I am going to tell you how not to piss your better half off or if you do the recommended things the opposite way, how to piss off your better half! Now I am not saying to take my advice to heart, it is more like therapy for me. Lately my woman has been getting pretty upset with me and I am trying to learn how to make that NOT happen! I find if I write things down they tend to stick in my memory better. +So let's see what pisses women off shall we? Well I know for a fact cheating is not the brightest idea. Not only will she be angry, it will also cause a lot of hurt feelings. So to top the list........DON""T CHEAT! +I think number two on the list is never talk bad about your spouse. In private, with friends, in front of her, it doesn't matter; even if you are just joking around she might think there is an underlying truth to your words. Take the old adage to heart; if you can't say something nice then don't say nothing at all! Actually just say nice things period. If you don't say anything at all you will start building walls between the two of you. So number two is......DON'T PUT THEM DOWN! +If you do fuck up for some stupid reason like you just weren't thinking then the next one on the list is extremely important; probably the most important one for me to learn. I am thick and selfish most of the time and forget this critical, critical point. I say critical twice because it is that important. Whether you think you are right or not; and believe me guys you might think your right but in the long run you ain't,....SAY YOU ARE SORRY!!! Apologize and mean it. Don't give them some half assed ""sorry"" but go over in your head what happened (write it down if you have to, like I am doing here!) and give her a heart felt apology. I am so bad at the last one. It is not that I don't care I am just plain stupid sometimes. +I think the fourth one is time! You have to give them time with you. If they are feeling lonely make sure you are there for them. An extra hour here and there can end up being the difference in a twenty or ten year marriage. Now this one is the is probably the most difficult for me to achieve. Since I am in the navy I can't always be around to give all my time. And when I am home I have a very addictive personality. Be it drinking, sex, reading, singing, or writing once I am locked into something and get a rush from it, I have a hard time of keeping it at a level where I am not consumed. Sometimes it is like they feed themselves. When I wrote my novel I would be at my computer for 14 hours a day. Everybody and everything seized to exist except for my thoughts and my keyboard. So if you are not giving enough time to your better half be it spouse/girlfriend/boyfriend/lover because you are caught up in other things switch it up so you become addicted to them. I am not saying stop completely just don't let it take over your life. +I could list hundreds of other things to do and not to do like; do not go to strip joints. Unless of course you are conforming to rule number four because your better half is a dancer and you just want to spend more time with them and you want to lend moral support. Another out for this one is if your better half is into strippers too. Then that becomes a together activity and that is a good thing. But why do so many guys think they really need to see some chick taking her fucking laundry off if they have one at home? I bet a lot of the ladies out there even the ones not the most comfortable with their bodies would gladly put on a striptease for their man if it meant them being home more often. +Another no, no is spending money on stupid items that don't involve her. If you are going to spend hard earned money at least waste it on the one you love. Flowers, cards or stuffed animal can be the perfect touch. Maybe a day at the spa for her, there is a hundy that couldn't be better spent! Your woman will get treated like a queen and it is the perfect opportunity for some ""You"" time as well. +Last but not least DON'T TAKE THEM FOR GRANTED!! If a woman thinks you are doing this then you are. So find out what it is they want and change accordingly! +So now for some tips: +-Leave little notes around the house expressing your love -bring flowers home for no particular reason -give her a body massage at least once a week -once a month have a nice bubble bath with scented candles waiting for her -clean something you don't normally clean -take her somewhere nice at least once a month, and it doesn't have to cost a lot -pick a hobby you both enjoy and do it together -cook her a nice meal -a nice bottle of her favorite perfume will go along way -last but not least buy her something sexy and comfortable to make her feel sexy. +So guys take it for what it is worth.

The idea is that a couple will have a great marriage for the first seven years and then after that time the man will get an itch, an urge to stray from his marital vows. This movie was made in the sixties and assumed that women would do no such thing. Of course, now if the movie were remade, the wife would be equally likely to stray. +Married people cheat because they are not having their needs met. As a relationship develops, there are changes for both parties and some of those changes are for the good. Others have a negative impact on a marriage. +This article gives you suggestions on some ways of keeping your marriage exciting. If the marriage is exciting and the needs of both people are being met, there will not be the urge to stray. The itch will be scratched. +Go On Dates +Remember back to the first few months of your relationship. It was fun and exciting. Going out on dates was such a thrill. You might have gone on the typical dinner and a movie date where you chatted through dinner and then cuddled throughout the movie. You might have seen a scary movie so that the woman could cling onto the man or maybe you saw a romantic comedy that had the perfect balance of comedy for the man and romance for the woman. You might have gone on more adventurous dates such as white water rafting. Either way, the thrill and romance of dating was enjoyable. +Even though you are married going on dates can still be fun. Do something you normally did when you were dating. There is no need to go outside you comfort area. If you really want to have fun meet at the location as opposed to leaving from the house together. This truly enforces the idea of a special night. +If you can't go out for a date you can always have a date inside. Once the kids are asleep, turn the living room into a park and have a picnic. You can enjoy a quiet picnic without needing to leave the house. If you have an outside pool, you can pretend you're in the Caribbean. Something that allows you time alone with the person you love is the best way to reconnect. +Safeness of Sex +This is a very interesting topic that requires some explanation. The first thing is the idea that even though you have been married for years, sex is still an important part of your relationship. Sex has two purposes, recreational and procreation. Some religions fail to mention the former, but it is true. Sex is supposed to be fun and enjoyable. If it wasn't, no one would want to have sex and there would be no more humans on earth. Sex needs to be enjoyable and builds a close relationship with the one you love. The longer you go without sex, the less likely you are to have a close intimate relationship. +The stresses and risks that exist when you were dating no longer exist. In a married relationship, there is no risk of STD's. There is no worry of an accidental pregnancy. The enjoyment of sex can be the number one priority. +As a couple, you should be having sex regularly. Livening up your sex life can be as simple as doing it with the lights on. You can be more daring and go to a different location in the house or even go outside. Let's go back to the idea that you have an outdoor pool. Sex in the water is very arousing and if you do it at night, you have the added risk of being caught by the little old lady that lives next door. +Sex keeps your marriage exciting because it reinforces the intimacy that is the glue that holds your relationship together. Embrace the fact that you have married your true love and that you have unlimited sex for the rest of your lives. +Blast from the Past +No I don't mean that horrible movie with Brendan Fraser. This suggestion is based on the idea of revisiting your relationship in the beginning. My husband and I used to replay our first date every year on the anniversary of the day we first met. Of course, once we got jobs and had children that idea went out the window. Revisit the locations and activities that you participated in when you were dating. Going back to those places will renew the sense of excitement and allow you to remember the feelings you had when you were first dating. Remembering how you felt when you were first dating can help renew your love for one another. +In an ideal world this article would not need to be written. Of course, we do not live in an ideal world. We live in a world where the divorce rate is almost fifty percent in Canada and over that in the United States. Keeping your marriage exciting might reduce the chances of either party having a ""seven year itch'." +600,Kegel-Training and Edging 01,Bartolomeu_Dias,How To,2021-11-01,2021-11-01,2022-01-04 08:35:39,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/kegel-training-and-edging-01,An Experience Report.,"['Cock', 'Cum', 'Edging', 'Experience Report', 'Jerking', 'Masculinity', 'Masturbation', 'Stroking']",,"Kegel-Training and Edging +1.Preface +As I was still lying in bed for a while, one early morning, with my usual morning wood in my left hand, the question suddenly occurred to me, what I would actually like so much about jerking off my cock. While I kept on stroking, I began to think about what exactly I really like the most about it. One could spontaneously assume that it might be the cum shot at the end, because to achieve this, a man usually works very quickly and purposefully. In fact, every single time, it's a unique and overwhelming feeling for me, to feel all that accumulated sperm to spurt out of my glans explosively in several powerful bursts, and all the more of my creamy sperm at the moment shoots out of my dick, as the more great and successful I experience this moment. In addition, I not only like to see how I myself shoot my load, I also like to watch other guys cum a lot, be it just in a porn video or live. But even if this was the first thing I thought of as a possible answer, it wasn't the only correct one. It took me a while to think about it before I realized the truth. For me, the really coolest thing about it has not that much to do with the actual wanking, because the most fantastic thing about it was my big hard cock itself. Even when the blood starts to build up in my cock, that's always such a great feeling for me, that I consciously evoke this often enough during the day. If it were possible for a man to be able to have a semi-rigid dick twenty-four hours a day, this would actually be the ideal state I should strive for, I realized. +As is so often the case when such strange trains of thought suddenly emerge, the evening before I came across something completely unknown to me on the Internet, namely the keyword ""dry orgasm"". I'll save the exact theory behind this word for now, but maybe it will come up in another place later. +While I was still looking at the mandatory training program that would be necessary to learn this so-called ""dry orgasm"" in just 3-4 weeks, what I read spoke to me so much that I immediately made the decision to try this promising training myself. +The first step in this training program is that the guy begins to practice jerking his hard cock steadily for at least ten minutes without getting an ejaculation, or he should use a special technique to suppress his climax. Once he has achieved this first training goal, the amount of time is continuously increased until he has reached 30+ minutes of uninterrupted jerking off. +The actual goal of the whole thing, however, is that after successfully completing the training program, ejaculation should be decoupled from masturbating itself, and that the man would then, in principle at least, be able to continue his wanking as long as he would like to. Cumming while doing this would actually be a great disadvantage, as this would, as is well known, end the fun abruptly. +So now I come back to the first possible answer to the question about the best thing about wanking that I asked above. To be able to jerk off my fat hard cock for 30+ minutes while just being able to enjoy its thickness, its protruding veins, its warmth, its thick glans in my up and down sliding fist, that would really be the absolute coolest for me. As much as I am already enjoying the bare feeling of my hard cock every single time (in my hand or just in my pants), but also to see its splendid sight when it is full of blood, then surely 30+ minutes of it would be just right for me. And so I started exercising. +2\. Preparation +If I had read the buzzwords pelvic floor-, Kegel- or PC-training anywhere in the past, they never really piqued my interest, as they sounded too much like pregnancy and having children. I had previously assumed that this was something to cope with specific women's problems after childbirth, and so I had never dealt with this topic any further. +However, my current interest in Kegel training for men was awakened some time ago, when I happened to come upon a report on NEOs * and PNEOs *, a masturbation practice that made me think of tantra and yogis while reading about it, but sounded no less exciting and worth striving for me. I want to be able to do that too, I thought to myself as I read the article. +Without wanting to go into the theory of NEOs at this point (that comes later), the indispensable preparation for learning and being able to use this masturbation practice consists of several weeks of intensive PC muscle training in order to master the basic technique. +Even if I did not wanted to pursue the goal, that thanks to the perfect control of my PC muscles, I would be able to maintain an erection for three hours, and in order to that become a porn actor, and on the other hand was not jet approaching old age incontinence, my general interest in the unknown, in challenges, and in new kicks, prompted me to start with Kegel training these days. And that with the resolution not to worry about a possible positive result for the time being. Let's be surprised what will happen, I thought to myself. +A short Google search on the topic of Kegel training only brought to light various English-language articles by self-proclaimed lifestyle experts, all of whom could write well, but due to piety and self-censorship, without really saying anything at all. The usual hot air. So it is my aim at this point, perhaps to be a little more explicit than the mainstream press is allowed to do, to report on the experiences I will have during my PC muscle training. +How to localize your own PC muscle is actually very simple. Every man who has ever let his erect cock bob up and down, has tensed his PC muscle to do this. If you place a finger on your perineum between the scrotum and anus, you can also feel the contractions of this muscle. It is normal and inevitable that the anus also contracts when the PC muscle is tensed. Likewise, the testicles move a little upwards. +After you have successfully tracked your PC muscle, the first small challenge you have to face is to really only tense this muscle during the exercises. And that turns out to be not as easy as one might think at first. +Since I wanted to start the necessary preparatory training immediately after my decision to also master the NEO masturbation technique without having to worry about the overall process, I downloaded an Android app for pelvic floor training, and started the program with five training sessions a day. +(* NEO = Non-Ejaculatory Orgasm) +(* PNEO = Peaking NEO) +3\. Twenty sessions +The first thing I noticed when I started my Kegel training was that I really had to sit very upright when doing the exercises, and that I actually had to concentrate on them. Leaning coolly in the chair while exercising the PC muscle, obviously didn't work, as it soon turned out to be. But before I became aware of this, I had already spent the first session just exploring and understanding the functionality of the app and the sequence of exercises. Both are basically very simple, as the app specifies in the form of counted down seconds and acoustic signals when to tense or relax the muscle. Plug and play, so to speak. +As I had already learned the sequence of the exercises by now, I definitely needed the next three to four sessions to get a feel for my PC muscle at all. Because, as it was called ""tensing"" in the first sessions, I automatically tensed my thighs, my buttocks, or even the abdominal muscles, but hardly the PC muscle itself. And of course I stopped breathing during the exercises too. Something you should never actually do. +The only thing that is inevitably allowed to tense during the exercises too, is the anus, because this and the PC muscle form a muscle strand, otherwise you should just sit quietly. And after years of meditation practice, I should still be able to do that, I thought to myself. +With the necessary concentration and a certain ambition, I managed better with each session not to tense my thighs and also to remember to just keep breathing. When I slowly got the hang of it, to sit very relaxed in the chair and to focus exclusively on my PC muscles, I suddenly started to really enjoy it, and without further ado I increased the number of training sessions per day. In the hope that the PC muscle couldn't get sore. +The very simple but beautifully designed app also contributed significantly to my fun during training. The exercises given by the app for each session are between 30 and 60 seconds long and contain sequences with 2 to 5 second intervals that dictate the tension and relaxation of the PC muscle. I have already developed a weakness for the short and crisp 30 second sessions, in which the intervals are only 2 seconds each. These short intervals force me to stay fully focused on my PC muscle, so that the sessions create a really intense body feeling for the area just behind my penis. +For the fun of practicing and out of sporting ambition, at some point I went over to just doing a training session as often a day as I felt like it, without adhering to further guidelines. In this way, I got fast through the levels of difficulty contained in the app's training program, each of which comprises ten sessions. I have not yet been able to determine a really noticeable increase in difficulty when completing the levels, but what I have noticed is that from about the 2nd level of difficulty my access to my PC muscle became much more precise and firm. And I liked that. +4\. One hundred and fifty sessions +In my now daily PC muscle training, I do between 6 and 10 sessions a day, and there are still the little things that I have to watch out for. +Am I sitting upright with my knees apart? Am I breathing? Am I really just tensing the PC muscle? Of course, mistakes keep creeping in while practicing, as I only started a few days ago. But I am now quite confident that the effort and time invested will bring a presentable result. +So far I have liked the short exercise units more, fast & direct, when training, but found out that with the longer 60 second exercises I have the opportunity to give them a harmonious, flowing process. I do this by letting the tension in the muscle increase slowly. This is very pleasant, and it also gives me time to watch out for my mistakes, as I still tend to tense my abdominal muscles too. +After forty sessions of very attentive training, I thought I had developed a sufficiently precise feeling for my PC muscle, and it was time to make the exercises more intense. I really started tensing the muscle with all my strength during the 5 second intervals. My goal is to develop a not only secure, but also an absolutely firm grip on my PC muscle. This much tougher exercise method brought a little more unwanted tension in my upper body, but I am sure that I have got the hang of it now. After training three to four of these new hardcore sessions, I was able to tense my pc muscles so vigorously during the exercise that the blood began to build up in my cock. To be able to provoke an erection during my training sessions, I see as a clear sign that I am on the right track. +To train the next 55 exercise units (up to the 100th) with the hardcore tension turned out to be exhausting at times, but my training shows continuous progress. The general control over my body improved and I now (almost) always manage to just sit still during the exercise and let all other muscles relax. As a result, at some point I was able to really clearly perceive how far a strong contraction of my PC muscle radiates in the lower abdomen. With one hand placed on the area of my pubic hair, I can feel exactly the movement and tension under my fingers that arise with every contraction of the PC muscle. The area that is under adequate tension every time is an estimated 5-6 cm around my private parts. +Most of the following 50 exercise units (up to the 150th) were almost routine, with some sessions being completely wasted, which was mostly the case due to lack of concentration. That's annoying at the moment, but take a deep breath and just start another session or two. +One hundred and fifty completed training sessions, accompanied by the constant focus on my lower abdomen, paid so emphatically their tribute that masturbating on the 14th day of training became inevitable. I was very curious to see whether anything had changed in this area as a result of the many exercises. +It seemed to me as if my erect cock was standing a bit more upright and also harder than some times before, but whether that was a result of the training or just because of overstimulation from daily attention, I can't judge. The further course of the training will have to be seen there. +Otherwise everything was as always, but I would have liked to enjoy the wanking of my cock much longer. But the tension that had built up in my lower abdomen from the PC training wanted to discharge, and so I let the ejaculation happen after just a few minutes. Also happy to be able to reduce the excess energy and to be able to resume PC training in a more relaxed manner. +5\. First self-experiment +After completing 120 sessions of PC muscle training, I thought it was time to try out the NEO training too, but as was to be expected, this demanding training could not just be started at once, but it requires a period of familiarization and the development of a routine in order to be able to actually do it correctly. However, this first test run was enough to give me a first impression of the process. +If I had stroked my hard cock as always during this trial NEO training, i.e. as hard & fast as I normally do, I would logically have cum after a very short time. So I had my hand slide up and down over the entire length of my cock, pulling the foreskin back and forth over the glans, but I carried out the movement slowly, not clutching my cock as tightly as usual, and left out the glans from the movement of my hand. +Since I was still unable to assess how close I was to cumming, I tensed the PC muscle at regular intervals, while still jerking, but a little more cautiously, and tried to think of other things. After eight minutes, some PreCum came out of my glans, and despite applied NEO exercises and diversion of thoughts, my cock remained consistently hard, thick, and stood more upright than usual. The tensioning of the PC muscle even caused my dick to swell and straighten up more for a short time. +Without actually feeling it coming, and completely without the usual accompanying contractions, after 16 minutes of jerking off plus practiced techniques, a large gush of creamy sperm suddenly flowed out of my glans. This effusion lacked all the attributes of cumshots that I am used to, and yet the discharge of my sperm was accompanied by satisfaction. Even if I did not do the exercise 100% correctly in this first self-experiment, I now at least know in which direction the NEO training is aimed, that I work up a sweat with these exercises, and that it is really a pleasure to be able to jerk my cock for a longer period of time. +Sequel follows..." +601,"Knickers, Rubbers, Arses And Fannys",shandal,How To,2011-10-20,2011-11-17,2022-01-04 08:35:40,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/knickers-rubbers-arses-and-fannys,1. or translating American/English vernacular. 2.

Not unless I explain that certain words are the common usage in the UK and in many countries around the world, but not in others such as the States, Canada or Australia which is where they may have other meanings, or no meaning at all. +For arse read ass, for fanny read cunt, for suspenders read garter belt, and for knickers read panties. +The reason I am writing this is I get a lot of feedback from Americans telling me I should not be using the English versions when writing my stories, that I should use the American usage only, and I get some very heated feedback correcting my use of certain words in a quite verbose way. I am sorry that those that read my stories find the different words that we British use confuse you and spoil the story for you. So I have decided to write this 'How to' to try to help you understand and translate any stories put on site by us 'ignorant' Brits. +'He pushed her over the bonnet of the car, rubbing his groin against her, his bollocks aching with need, his trousers feeling tight where his rock hard prick filled out the tight material. She ran her hands down his shoulders until they met his blue braces, pulling them down and then unbuttoned his shirt to reveal the tight vest he wore underneath that hugged his rippling muscles.' +Here in the UK the bonnet of the car is what Americans call the hood, (a great place to bonk against – when I say bonk I mean fuck) we call the trunk of a car the boot (no idea why, it just is). A common term for a man's balls are bollocks, and that is a common derogatory term as well as in 'That film was a load of bollocks'. +You may say pants for men, and so do we sometimes but more often or not its trousers (we do say a thing is 'pants' if it is crap i.e. that football game was pants (by the way we say football you say soccer) or pants are men's underwear in the UK (boxer shorts, briefs or baggy Y fronts). Braces can be for straightening teeth in the UK or also what you call suspenders and hold up trousers, and vests are something men wear as underwear in the UK (widow beaters) and not as part of a three piece suit – that we call a waistcoat. +In the UK a rubber (eraser) is something all kids have in their pencil case for school, so that they can rub out anything they have written down wrong and not for placing on cocks as contraception. In the UK we use a condom, or French letter, snog (kiss) kick someone in the goolies (see bollocks). We tell someone to 'bugger off' (get lost), or insult them telling them they are 'gob shite' (mouthy little shits). +On any Saturday night you can see couples having 'Saturday night knee tremblers' (sex) up against the alley wall after falling out of a club half pissed, (drunk as a skunk) with someone they have just 'pulled' then go for some 'Aggro' (fight) with some 'Arsehole' knocking them over until they fall 'Arse over tit'. +We also 'bang' each other, (have sex) especially after going on a 'bender' (pub crawl) and getting 'well bladdered' (drunk) and what other countries call a bang (US hair term) we call a fringe.

I however think there is an even more important connection, the mental connection. Though the path you chose by talking to all men as if they were the dumbest rock in the desert was a bit over the top for my own taste and for that I give you a thumb down. I felt that by taking this path you have degraded the importance of the mental functioning both men and women need and its shared importance that leads to the physical nurturing every great relationship is foundation-ally built upon. +Taking generalizations not mentioned, like: ""if it's easy it's not worth much"" or ""the more you put into something the more you'll get out"" is a foundation that can easily be built upon. Is it not? So, men if you are reading this (and God I hope you all are) timing and purpose are the very nature of harnessing the power a (your) woman has over us (you). Being pleasant all day, agreeing often, holding hands, light kisses (a mere brush of the lips without any puckering) the softest moist drag of lower lips every time you get eye to eye and she looks at your lips is mandate. But holding hands, wrapping your arm around her waste and holding her solidly and meaning it, touching her shoulder and using your thumb to rub a knot out (if you feel one) and never over looking any chance to reinforce your admiration for her is all part of the connection process. When combined, is powerful and the most important need that any of us can do toward preparing the path of least resistance into the joys of mutual sexual satisfactions. Shared respect, dedication to each other along with devotion together adds up to the journey into the world of your well deserved sexual appetite, its attention and fulfillment. Prove to her that you deserve her and she will prove to you that she deserves you. By doing this, it's more than satisfactory coupling you both will enjoy much more so than any other path discussed above. +Women are touchy feely creatures and men are visual animals, we forget that by holding our chosen one's hand, women actually think we love them, they do. It burns right into and through the brain faster than any other single thing we as men can do. Hold her hand, walk with her as if no other woman in the world exists, truthfully, when you are holding your woman's hand, no other woman should exist. And who gets rewarded? You both do. Reinforce her dreams of singularity, dedication and give cause to her purpose, she will repay you so many times over the top and nothing can be more satisfying than having her take you to bed while being so ready to do things she would normally ignore doing. Fact is that you might actually have found that she is your ""the one"". If you remember that the connection is mental and holding her hand while you walk into the mall through the stores and back out to the car is physical and she will be smiling inside so large because you are giving her all she mentally really needs, your devotion. +Women look at the man holding another woman's hand as if berating it, judging its worthiness and belittling the hidden true reason for your need to connect. They do, even men do, and we say things like he's pussy whipped or I bet she gives good head but women think about jealousy, why? Because, it's connection they don't have or perhaps even deserve. To all those women you are walking past (and maybe you hope they would glance at you) and notice you at the mall, just know they usually don't. But, when you are holding a woman's hand and devoting your each and every thought to her existence, it actually gains you clout. Your worth as a man goes up each time they see you and all those ogling women in the mall will remember you. They will walk up and talk to you later when you go back and are alone. I have had them walk right up to me while my ""the one"" was in a changing booth, they conjure up some kind of a conversation just to see if your brains are in tact. But that's another story. +Men if you are thinking when in the mall with your woman that if you remain aloof by keeping your distance, you think that maybe you'll get lucky and find an upgrade to a better looking or more sexually alluring woman. Let me tell you right now, no, that remaining aloof actually works in reverse. That is an inconsiderate greedy choice of direction that actually weakens any chance of adding any additional lover types and by remaining aloof to a woman you are with actually keeps you aloof. Never in my years have I seen such a greedy and worthless effort at ""I'm available"" work. Fact is, it degrades your chances of such potential opportunities while diminishing the needed effect on your woman's own desires. +By holding her hand, other women who watch and actually see your dedication, even while in the smorgasbord of all onlooking other women (especially at the mall) they look and think that you are the rock god of love, dedication and devotion that their own life has searched for since puberty and still seeks. Your rating as a man skyrockets and goes way off any chart. I have been told that while they see another mans devotion that the on looking women actually get wet wishing they had you or (someone, anyone), like you, in their life. So they all want (and need) to be paraded around and shown off. We as men think in the now, women remember the past and together, we all seek a future. Make it a wonderful future even if it's just for the night. Start playing chess in your head and make your moves count by setting up later moves in the future by making the right choices in the now. +Lastly and this is the truth, the woman you are dedicating your devotions to is the one who is melting inside, she is looking at all the other women and her chest is sticking out, she is standing and walking taller and her swagger is dotting the I's as she struts while her inner cravings to return the favor is crossing all the T's right on past all the ogling glances by other women that you are probably not even aware of. Give her, her day in her own spotlight of fame and glory. Lead the dance of love by giving her the best dance she has ever had, start it with holding her hand and with each step you are reinforcing the fact or at least the fantasy that she will see as devotion, dedication and watch as her desire turns into actions you can only be grateful for.

Sometimes we get so caught up in what we want, we forget about who we are becoming! So, for you I have written the companion piece to the The 'Ler Guide: The 'Lee Guide._ + _Enjoy your T#%kles._ + **To The T#%klees** +So there could be a million reasons why you are reading this little how-to- guide. You may be a T#%klee looking for some interesting new advice. Hoping that something new will pop up across your research. In which case I do hope I provide some interesting new insights. +You might be a regular person who has just found out their partner has a T#%kling fetish. If this is the case then -- pull up your socks! This guide will take you through everything you can think of. +It might interest you to know that throughout the human race, T#%kling has been a social bonding activity and is considered the highest grade of social play. To different degrees for each individual- T#%kling can be pleasurable socially, intimately, or playfully. In this sense it is very much like any other intimate interaction. +Consider massages for example: some people find them relaxing and share this activity between friends, while others find it arousing and include it within foreplay. Nibbling on the ears: Some people find this completely intoxicating and they lose all ability to think, while others find it uncomfortable and invasive. +T#%kling may sound like an odd thing to be aroused by at first, but any T#%klee will tell you - it's a pleasure of torture, which just so happens to be less commonly enjoyed than others. + **Normality and Violation.** +Ok, don't freak out when you read the words ' physiology' and ' scientific fact'. This is a very simple guide! However, I have delved into the science behind T#%kling a little bit because arousal is a science. If you just want to get to the juicy bits- skip this section! Although, it may prove helpful to understand how and why people are T#%klish, scientifically. +This is an important little fact to know. The physiology of laughter and T#%kling tells us that the response of laugher and squirming, is a reaction to the combined sensations that are a violation, and sensations that are perceived as normal. Many people who are not T#%klish, are only so as they sense no violation in the contact they are feeling. For many people, they need to perceive some kind of playful threat/ or attack, in order to feel the violation/normal touch combo. +T#%kling itself is a combination of feeling 'touch' and 'pain' together. The body reacts in a way that tells your subconscious- ""get away or you might get bruised"". Hence the squirming and struggling response. However, when a person truly believes there is no threat within this kind of contact- then they only feel it as ""normal"" touch. Without the crucial combination of the two, a person would not be T#%klish. +Now before we get ahead of ourselves, the paragraphs above only apply to one kind of T#%kling. Gargalesis: refers to harder, laughter-inducing T#%kling, and involves the repeated application of high pressure to sensitive areas (1) +The type of T#%kling needed to satisfy a T#%klee will depend on each individual. There is no right or wrong way to feel a sensation. As the T#%klee, you will know if you enjoy high pressure T#%kling or lighter touches. Also remember that this is a grey area. Some of us will want light and hard T#%kling in different places on our bodies. Some will want you to alternate between these touches in the same place. +On another note, is it considered that we as humans began squirming from T#%kling, as a way of teaching our bodies where our weak points will be in combat. Once again- this scientific fact brings us to the notion of violation/violence. After all, there is a reason people call it- ""T#%kle torture"". +This in itself explains why some people find T#%kling to be painful though. Everyone is different. And for some people they do not feel any normality in this kind of touch- they only feel the violation and the pain. So, for those of you who are too T#%klish for your own liking... the sad news it that overexposure is key to getting less T#%klish. Overexposure gets a person used to that sort of touch. Eventually it is viewed as normal... and the more a person is T#%kled the more normal it becomes. +This is also why a lot of people experience becoming less T#%klish as they get older. The 'touch' sensation becomes normal. They feel less of a threat. However, this is not true for everyone. How you 'perceive' the T#%kling touch (normal/violation) is completely within your control. You may even notice here now that unlike the T#%kler guide, I do not actually write out the magical T word in full. There is a reason for this that you will come to understand while reading this guide. +Now all the information above are facts from various websites I've researched. I've pieced certain things together and came to my own conclusions in regards to a way to become more/ less T#%klish. I know for certain there is the way to become less T#%klish. there is plenty of evidence to suggest that. However, by way of becoming more T#%klish- note that changing your perception and thought patterns on the subject are not an overnight task. +Now ask your fellow T#%klee's, I'm sure they would agree: Being blindfolded enhances the experience. This is because when a person cannot see where the contact is coming from, it enhances the unpredictability of the touch and _therefore_ the feeling of a 'threat'. +Threat is the violation; you are in danger! Your body is exposed and sensitive. You cannot escape. You are a little weak mess of giggles and no way can you stop the attack! + **The Mind Set** +Gosh where to start. This is really a job for both the T#%klee and the T#%kler. Partnerships allow you to build a concept together, make something a reality. It's easier to convince yourself that you are vulnerable, when you are being T#%klgasmed against your will each night. +However, I'm writing this guide for T#%klees -- and some of you may not have access to an eager T#%kler just yet. This is perfectly fine. The power to be vulnerable is in your hands. +Imagine I said to you: Hey I'm going to fuck you really hard tonight. Imagine I said this throughout the day. Teasingly. Sexually. Longingly. Threatening. Imagine every now and then I just slipped it into conversation. +By the end of the day most people would be horny as hell - more so than if I had said it the second before being intimate. The thought of having intercourse has been stewing and running through your mind all day. You have become worked up about it. +You're T#%klish. So fucken T#%klish. I'm going to attack your poor little toes tonight. I'm going to squeeze and wriggle across your ribs. You're going to be T#%kled shitless tonight. You're inner thighs are mine, you T#%klish brat. I'm going to have the soles of your feet begging for mercy. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. T#%kle. +When a T#%kler can tease and taunt you throughout the day -- it will certainly make things heightened. Whispered threats of T#%kle attacks in ear. Descriptions where and how you will be T#%kled. + **Rule number one for a T#%klee** (of course optional but follow if you dare) -- never ever, never ever, EVER -- say the word T#%kle. Don't say it. Just don't. +Now maybe you're a switch -- maybe you want to wield the power of the word as well! That is perfectly fine. However, when you are being the T#%klee, this is the rule. Make it obvious to yourself when you are the weaker half of yourself. Maybe you dress differently, to expose yourself a little? Or maybe you talk more shyly when you are under the grips of a dangerously sadistic T#%kler? +Let's imagine you have a phobia of spiders. Would you often bring up spiders? If you were _deathly_ afraid of them, would you mutter the word spider to yourself? Or would the mere mention of the word be unpleasant to your ears? +I don't think you would bring them up. +I think, being afraid of something makes you want to avoid it in every sense of the word. The more you avoid spiders, the more fearful you become of them. You are in fact teaching your brain through repeated behaviours and thoughts, that spiders are a threat to you. +Now rule number 1 applies here as you want to start teaching your brain that T#%kling is a threat. This increases sensitivity, or at least, perceived sensitivity. Now, does this mean you cannot hear the word T#%kle, often? No, no. You can hear it just as much as you can ask the braver person in the household to remove that scary spider for you. The T#%kler can be brave, and you can witness their braveness -- but you little piglet, you are not brave enough to let the letters spider their way from your lips. + **Rule number two - take advantage of those moments when you stumble into T#%kles**. +OMG, did they just slip the word T#%kle into regular conversation? For example: Imagine you're out to lunch and your date is looking through the menu. The waiter is standing by the table. There are people nearby talking - people who are well in ear shot - and you look at your T#%kler as they look down at you with a knowing grin. ""Does the cappuccino T#%KLE your fancy today?"" +And crap -- they really reeeally emphasised the word T word here. Do you want to teach your brain that you are comfortable in this moment? Or do you want to be weakened with nervous arousal? What do you feel? +Perhaps their knowing use of the T word makes you think of their fingers tracing along your sides? Perhaps you look at the waiter and wonder if they can tell you are aroused? What if you are turning red? What if your date uses the word again? What if everyone notices how weird you're being, and someone repeats the T word and then gets the idea to actually DO it to you? +Getting yourself into the best sensitivity mindset will build on how much you enjoy being tortured, and also how T#%klish you will be. + **Rule number three -- meditate on your fantasies**. Focus on details like what you might be wearing and how that exposes your weak spots. Imagine how you know that someone could tie you down and toy with you, how their knowing fingers would make you squirm. Does it feel like your skin is tingling already? Almost like nervous energy is pressing into the soles of your feet, your sides, your back, under your arms... you cannot escape your vulnerabilities. +Your mind can be set up if you think the right things and respond the right way to encourage a vulnerable perception. Consider the below questions and imagine how you would respond the next time you are caught with a T#%kler. +""Your T#%kler Says"" _\-- Your imagined response_ +""Does that T#%kle?"" _\- Did he notice me flinch? Can I pretend it didn't T#%kle?_ +""I'm going to T#%kle you until you cry now"" _\-- Don't look scared! Am I blushing?_ +""Aren't you just a cute T#%klish little piggy?"" _\-- My toes are tingling, this little piggy went to market... oh god, what if they start teasing with that rhyming song that stupidly arouses me..._ +""I want your soles. Now. I'm going to have them."" _\-- Am I breathing faster? Stop it. Breath normally._ +""If you don't stay still, I won't stop T#%kling you."" _\-- Oh no. What if they find my worst spots? Am I tensing them up now? Did they notice? I need to relax so they can't guess where the spots are._ +""It's amusing how weak and T#%klish you are"" _\-- Is there even a good way to respond to this? Maybe if I just change the subject they won't notice._ +""Don't make me T#%kle you kiddo!"" _\-- Notice where your body feels nervous tension at these words. Really focus on it. Are your nipples getting hard?_ +""I'll T#%kle you if you don't obey me."" ­ _\-- Well now you're in trouble. How do you get out of this one?_ +""Nawww is the little baby T#%klish there? Riiiight there?"" _\-- Can you really control how aroused you are? I mean, biting your lip, blushing, tensing, twitching, hiding parts, curling those toes.... Can you sit still knowing your biggest weakness is just inches away from being antagonised?_ + _It is so easy to be T#%kled._ + _Your so weak and vulnerable to being owned._ + _A knowing T#%kler will get you, exactly where they want you. It's only a matter of time._ + _Feeling helpless now, little T#%klee?_ + _If you think you can handle being punished with embarrassingly tingly shivery tickles, then why are you feeling aroused while merely READING them?_ + _Don't you just feel yourself wanting to squirm already?_ + _You are going to be found out, and someone is going to indulge in your most vulnerable weakness. It will happen._ + _What if someone discovers you reading this?_ + _What if I can trace every single reader who clicks into reading this guide?_ + _It's pretty funny how fucking T#%klish you are._ + _Why would a T#%kler miss the opportunity to track you down? You clearly want it._ + _Don't change your address little T#%klee, the T#%kler community will find you soon enough._ + _Every time you leave your house, close your eyes, go run your errands... simply existing is your vulnerability. You have an internet history. You have people who know your secret. Certainly, you have medical professionals and incidental interactions where the little T#%klee in you just couldn't help but flinch or giggle._ + _And one of those times, a knowing T#%kler will be paying attention at just -- the -- right -- moment._ + _GOTCHA!_ +Take a deep, deep breath. +No one is tracing your computer -- (at least not where I am concerned) +However, this practice is a mere example of how you can increase your sense of vulnerability -- with or without an actual T#%kler present. +Language is one tool to get yourself in the right mindset. However, there is also a visual side to T#%kling. Personally, I know that whenever someone wriggles their fingers in my direction - I feel a nervous shiver run over my most sensitive places. +There's no harm in playing with visuals such as this. +Watch T#%kle clips, view or create T#%kle art and read all the erotic sadistic filth about being T#%kled that you can find! You may not be able to say the word -- but you are also not strong enough to resist your own lust ridden desires, can you now? +Every time you indulge, remind yourself that this is because you are weak and desperate for this humiliating treatment... and when you are done... remind yourself that you're building a large trail of evidence for that next T#%kler to gain access to. Let be honest, you've read this far -- you MUST be desperate for someone to toy and tease you all over. +Now, back to the science... +These two tools - verbal and visual T#%kle prompts - help to heighten the anticipation of violation/threat when the sensation begins. Remember that the reaction towards T#%kling is caused by a combination of violation and normality within the touch sensation. Creating a better-quality T#%kle can be as simple as heightening your own perception of threat. +Obviously though, don't start including thoughts about actual things that can hurt you. You don't want to encourage a fear of anything else -- just encourage the little T#%klee inside of you. + **Tools Beyond the Mind** +Okay, so now that I've basically covered the mental ways to bolster the T#%klee within you, let's explore how the doing part of a session can affect us. The physical sensations play a large role in creating a good T#%kle. The question is: how complicated can T#%kling be? +The first tool a T#%klee usually experiences, is ten wriggling fingers. It's the only tool people always have on hand (pun intended). Now there are two types of touch, which cause a T#%klish reaction. Scientifically they are named and labelled below. + **Knismesis and gargalesis** +Two types of T#%kling. +Gargalesis, as mentioned before, is the kind of T#%kling where pressure is applied to sensitive spots on the body. +Knismesis is the kind of T#%kling which is very gentle and causes a tingling sensation across the skin. +Gargalesis is usually applied to the sides, hips, ribs, stomach, thighs, arse, underarms and knees. Techniques are squeezing, pinching, rough finger wriggling, poking and digging. As a T#%klee you may have areas which you know will be most vulnerable to this kind of touch. +Knismesis is generally applied to the feet, ankels, thighs, legs, backs of knees, back, neck, ears, sides, stomach , underarms, arse, and other more intimate regions. People use either their nails or their fingertips to gently travel across the skin. This can also be encouraged with a sharp sensation -- like a pen tip or the end of a feather. +As a T#%klee -- you will never ever be able to T#%kle yourself -- but you know your body best. Your mind will automatically force you to reflexively protect your ""worst spots."" You cannot hide the little signals your body reflexively communicates to the outer world. You are an open book kiddo. +If you have a session, which didn't stimulate you too much, know that it is just as much the job of the T#%kler as it is yours -- to get you weak and vulnerable with giggling humiliation. You may be more sensitive from one day to the next, as well as more receptive from one T#%kler to the next. +Below is a list of commonly used tools for a good T#%kling session. +Hairbrush +Baby oil +Toothbrush +Electric Toothbrush / flosser +Makeup brush +Restraints +Pen +Guitar finger picks +Forks +Fluffy pipe cleaners +Paint brushes / Feathers +Socks +Moisturiser +Warm damp towel +Now I could cover all of them and explain how they could be used, but that would take way too long. So here are a few things I think create for the best experience, and best kind of T#%klee. + **Feet** +Feet are super important. In fact. **Rule number four is that all T#%klees should pamper their feet.** Now it's actually less expensive that you might imagine. Moisturise your heels and arches and toes, put a damp cloth or wipe over your feet and slip a sock over it. Leave it for however long you like -- maybe at least 15minutes minimum -- and you will notice soft sensitive foot bottoms at last. + **Keep them clean.** +Some T#%klers may be aroused by dirty little arches that they can tease and shame you about. This is fine -- but having dirty feet is quick to achieve, whilst having well pampered foot bottoms is something that gets improved over time. Pamper those heels and if a T#%kler wants them dirty it can be arranged. + **Manners** +I suppose it goes without saying, but just because you want to be T#%kled, does not mean that a T#%kler will want to hear it. Ever T#%kler is different -- some may love a begging excited little T#%klee who asks them to do a session. Others will want a fearful and embarrassed T#%klee who is ashamed but secretly lusts for the torture. +There is no correct way to express yourself -- however a good T#%klee will try to understand the fantasy of their T#%kler as well. You are about to embark on an interaction that has two sides, and for the best session to occur, both sides must be understood. + **Communication** +The feather may or may not work on you. +Gargalisis may not work on you. +Anything to do with feet may not work on you. +Everything depends on what kind of stimulus your body responds to and that's okay. + **Rule number five is don't pretend to laugh just to please your T#%kler.** +When you pretend to laugh, you are literally training your brain to think this activity is not stimulating for you anymore. Don't do that to yourself. +You will be laying there giggling a fake little giggle, thinking that your T#%kler is not any good, and not scary... and you aren't feeling it... in fact you're not that T#%klish there anymore. You can actually take this. Blah Blah Blah. +The T#%kler may or may not know you are faking it, but just like a good orgasm, it's not going to happen if your lover thinks it already did. +Communicate when something isn't stimulating you, but also encourage your brain to perceive yourself as being vulnerable. +""You better let me go, this clearly isn't working!"" _I hope they don't get that brush over there and use that instead. Did I just look at the brush? Did they notice? Oh no, what if they T#%kle my ears next? What if they figure out the weak spots before letting me free?_ + **Don't Use Your Senses** +Now it is common knowledge that if the T#%klee is blindfolded the sensations are heightened. This is because it enhances the 'violation sensation'. Not knowing where the T#%kler is going to strike next is a threat to your body. If you bring up sensory deprivation with your T#%kler before a session, it is almost certain they will oblige by taking full advantage of weakening you further. + **THE T#%KLEE'S ROLE** +It's important to remember at all times that the T#%kler yearns to T#%kle torture, and watch the you squirm and giggle. As the T#%klee, you may be aroused by the power they hold over you, or you may be liberated by the next level of mindless sensation you are subjected to in a session. Yet you are also vulnerable and completely at their mercy. +I wanted to elaborate on these roles because a lot of non-fetish T#%klees who try to act the part for their partner, may misunderstand the purpose of the interaction. If the T#%kler can see that the helpless fear/arousal behind the T#%kling is simply an act of trying to appease the partner before the ""real sex"" can take place - then the T#%kler will not really be getting the experience they need. This interaction is not about having sex, although it may lead to sex, and it may be sexually charged. +This goes both ways for the T#%klee and T#%kler partners who do not actually have a fetish but are wanting to understand the kink for their lover's satisfaction. This is not a rehearsal! This is not the side hustle! Your T#%kler wants to fucking destroy your dignity and dominate the shit out of your very T#%klish body. +That is the meat of the sandwich for the kinkster. +Now, whether you are a true T#%klee or just a willing participant for your sadistic T#%kler of a lover, you are in for a ride. Buckle up. + **The Mantra of a Good Little T#%klee** + _The T word makes me blush_ + _The T word makes me weak_ + _I mustn't say the T word_ + _I freeze with reddened cheeks_ + _The T word makes me blush_ + _The T word makes me shake_ + _I mustn't say the T word_ + _There's no chance to escape_ + _The T word makes me blush_ + _The T word makes me shy_ + _I mustn't say the T word_ + _I submit to Lers who pry_ +Note that this mantra is completely optional -- and you can make your own. The point here is to keep your brain focused on how you are a helpless little T#%klee. This encourages sensitivity, excitement and ... it's just so much more embarrassing that you are trying so very hard to be a good little T#%klee. + **Types of T#%klees** +In my personal experience, there are three types of T#%klees. There very well could be others, and you may find yourself somewhere in the middle of two. However, it's always preferable to know exactly what you are. You are a little T#%kle Toy, but the question is, what kind? + **Shy T#%klees** +Yes you guessed it -- this is the T#%klee who leaves the room whenever someone says the scary ol' T word. Are you already there? Are you this desperately vulnerable that you can't even bare to stay in the same room as the uttered word -- for fear someone will spot you and figure out your little secret? GOOD, there is no better victim than the one that is trembling before a T#%kler has even really started. Oh dear, you're in trouble. + **Bratty T#%klees** +These are the T#%klees who are always tough. They struggle to submit and yet often beckon forth the tormentor to try their best -- because these Bratty Little T#%klees like to pretend they are unbreakable..... until they aren't. How embarrassing for them, that in those final moments, their vibrato falls short. I suppose they too are forced into submission, quite like the Shy Little T#%klees who were pleading for mercy right from the start. Watch out Kiddo, the T#%kler who breaks you will be very pleased and won't want to let you ever forget it. + **Playful T#%klees** +These are the ones who aren't looking for any serious torment -- but who will be very excited and thrilled to feel a T#%kler's fingers running across their body. It's just so fun to be teased, and to giggle, and to be close. Aaahhh I would be very very careful if I were you Little T#%klee, if you walk into the wrong kind of T#%kler's trap.... You might be very surprised at how helpless you may become. + **T#%kling feet** +Okay, so I'm making a special section just for feet here. It's not a surprise that the foot fetish goes oh-so-well with the T#%kling fetish. Feet are VERY T#%klish due to a concentration of nerve endings in the soles and toes of the feet. So, it is common that the licking and biting gently of these areas can be both arousing and T#%klish to a person. +It could be said that the best sessions, are those that start off light, and then slowly become more and more unbearable. It's always good to start off with something general and soft like a feather or a brush. This makes the area more sensitive and gets the skin tingling for the torture to come. +There are a few ways to T#%kle feet. Some people enjoy having their feet bound together. Including having their two big toes tied together. Tying the big toes together restricts movement for the T#%klee. That as well as having the ankles bound would have them in a tight spot. +Baby oil works wonders! It's common knowledge. Add baby oil to the feet and use either a hair brush, your own fingertips or PVC dot knit gloves (grip dots). +Don't forget too that the foot is not just a sole. Play around the toes, the ankles and the top of the foot too. The whole package. Don't forget your mouth is as good a tool as any. + **T#%kle Texting** +You know what sexting is. But how do you go about it when it's a T#%kling text? It's basically sending messages or T#%kle threats, T#%kle teasing and T#%klish phrases to the 'lee in order to arouse them from a distance. +As covered before, the word T#%KLE T#%KLE T#%KLE has a rather strong effect on those of us with the fetish. So, T#%kle texts can be a really fun teasing tool to use. However, how does a T#%klee participate if they aren't saying the T word? +Remember that a T#%kler wants you to be tormented, to be aroused, to be in their control. Describe EVERYTHING. Use words like blushing, hiding, begging, wriggling, tingling, trembling and pleading -- please don't do it THERE! You can say where exactly: +Please don't go for my feet! +I can't handle a pen scribbling across my soles! +No, not my sides! +Please don't tie me up, I can't take it! +Please stop it, I am so nervous I can't think! +You're driving me crazy -- I keep thinking about your fingers getting me! +Using very straight-to-the-point words like; stomach. Foot. Knee. These are ok, but be as specific as you possibly can. For example: saying ""I will laugh if you T#%kle my feet,"" would sound less appealing than: +""Please don't use your fingertips like you did last time, no more this little piggy or anything please! I can't take it!"" +So focusing on the details, thoughts and feelings rather than the simple fact of ""T#%klee my feet and I will giggle,"" is very important. The extra detail in the text allows the imagination of the T#%kler to be stirred. If they can vividly imagine exactly how vulnerable you will become ... Then it can get them really enticed. +Call them names that relate to their liking of T#%kling.. If they are aroused by the power struggle related to T#%kling... use words like meanie, bully, Daddy, Master, Sir, sadist, cruel, monster.... And any other title they may prefer. +Remember however that not everyone enjoys dirty talk/ BDSM terminology. Some T#%klers will like being called Daddy, Master, Sadist ... and others will prefer tamer phrases like, ""You're so mean!"" and ""Babe, I can't take it!"" +Alternatively you can mix it up! + **Erotic T#%kling** +""People who have a T#%kling fetish are likely to enjoy this activity to the exclusion of other pre-sex activities. For some, the focus is entirely on the T#%kling, with full intercourse less important or not included at all."" (wikki) +T#%kling for most other people is playful. It's not erotic. However, for us T#%kle fetishists, it is _very_ erotic. We can use this to our advantage when it comes to sex. Take the playful T#%kling to a newer level by welcoming things like arousing phrases, bondage, T#%kling tools and foreplay into a session. + **T#%kling games** + **Memory** +The contestant places their feet in the host's lap. The host speaks out a series of phrases, one at a time, which the contestant must repeat word for word. Make sure these phrases are things that are a little bit hard to remember and repeat. Now the rules are the contestant must repeat the phrase without pause or stutter or any mistake. The minute they make a mistake they get T#%kled for 10 seconds! Then for each time they make a mistake, the number of seconds increases by 5. So, the more they mess up, the worse the consequences are. + **Still** +In this game, you take turns picking a spot to T#%kle on your partner. You challenge each other on who can stay still the longest throughout the T#%kle- and the winner gets one wish (ei: a massage, a sexual favour, a free dinner....) + **Life Raft** +Pick a spot in the room such as the couch or the bed- this is the life raft. Call all other areas of the room as shark infested waters... and as one person is the shark and the other a sinking sailor... the shark T#%kles the sailor until they reach the life raft. Of course, try and hold the sailor back from the raft as long as you can. +PS: There are plenty of T#%kling games online - google them + **Safe words and safety** +Okay here's a short section to keep everyone safe +Safe words are usually a good thing to have in a T#%kling session. Just in case you get a little too breathless or start to feel faint. Make sure the word is something short- but that stands out. Something like, ""Red"" or ""Time- Out"" will do the trick. +Keep the yourself hydrated. It's a lot of hard work submitting to torture. If done over a period of time... a person can get a dry mouth, or they could sweat quite a lot. It's important to have some water nearby and handy. If your T#%kler is new, ask them if they have thought about aftercare, and safety. +Pause words are good also. It's like an alternative to the safe word, where if used, the T#%klee gets a ten second break. It's fun to count down the ten seconds out loud to create some suspense. + **T#%kling NOTES** +Hope this was helpful. If there is anything I missed or anything that could be helpful to you- let me know. This is a draft still, and any feedback is welcome." +605,The 'Ler Guide,ticklechambers,How To,2011-06-19,2011-06-19,2022-01-04 08:39:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-ler-guide,A guide for erotic tickling.,"['Feet Tickling', 'How To Tickle', 'Tickle', 'Tickle Fetish', 'Tickle Games', 'Tickle Guide', 'Tickle Master', 'Tickle Monster', 'Tickle Tools', 'Tickle Tricks']",4.79,"Introductions +Dear readers, +I've searched google many times to find out information about our little fetish. It is certainly a challenge, let me tell you this. To explore this whole new world of tickling is no easy task, when the information is scattered about forums, and blogs. +I thought to myself, heck I'm a writer. I can read. Why not write a bloody information thingy myself? So here it is. Hopefully it's as helpful to you as I wish for it to be. +Enjoy your tickles. +To The 'Lers +So there could be a million reasons why you are reading this little how-to- guide. You may be a 'ler looking for some interesting new info. Hoping that something new will pop up in this booklet. In which case I do hope I provide some interesting new insights. +You might be a regular person who has just found out their partner has a tickling fetish. If this is the case then you are in luck! :) This guide will take you through everything :) It might interest you to know that throughout the human race, tickling has been a social bonding activity and is considered the highest grade of social play. To different degrees for each individual- tickling can be pleasurable socially, intimately, or playfully. In this sense it is very much like any other intimate interaction. +Consider massages for example: some people find them relaxing and share this activity between friends, while others find it arousing and include it within foreplay. Nibbling on the ears: Some people find this completely intoxicating and they lose all ability to think, while others find it uncomfortable and invasive. Tickling may sound like an odd thing to be aroused by, but it's really quite a simple sensation pleasure which just so happens to be less commonly enjoyed than others. +Normality and Violation. +Ok, don't freak out when you read the words ' physiology' and ' scientific fact'. This is a very simple guide, however, I have delved into the science behind tickling a little bit. If you just want to get to the juicy bits- skip this section. However, it may prove helpful to understand how and why people are ticklish, scientifically. +This is an important little fact to know. The physiology of laughter and tickling tells us that the response (laugher and squirming) is a combination of touch that is a violation and touch that is perceived as normal. Many people who are not ticklish, are only so as they sense no violation in the contact they are feeling. For many people, they need to perceive some kind of playful threat/ or attack, in order to feel the violation/normal touch combo. +Tickling itself is a combination of feeling 'touch' and 'pain' together. The body reacts in a way that tells your subconscious- ""get away or you might get bruised"". Hence the squirming and struggling response. However, when a person truly believes there is no threat within this kind of contact- then they only feel it as ""normal"" touch. Without the crucial combination of the two, a person would not be ticklish. +Now before we get ahead of ourselves, the paragraphs above only apply to one kind of tickling. Gargalesis: refers to harder, laughter-inducing tickling, and involves the repeated application of high pressure to sensitive areas (1) +The type of tickling needed to satisfy a 'Lee will depend on each individual. Play around with your 'lee and you will discover if they need high pressure tickling- or light touches. Also remember that this is a grey area. Some 'lees will want light and hard tickling in different places on their bodies. Some will want you to alternate between these touches in the same place. Experiment. +On another note, is it considered that we as humans began squirming from tickling, as a way of teaching our bodies where our weak points will be in combat. Once again- this scientific fact brings us to the notion of violation/violence. After all, there is a reason people call it- ""tickle torture"". ;) +This in itself explains why some people find tickling to be painful though. Everyone is different. And for some people they do not feel any normality in this kind of touch- they only feel the violation and the pain. So for those of you who are too ticklish for your own liking... the sad news it that overexposure is key to getting less ticklish. Overexposure gets a person used to that sort of touch. Eventually it is viewed as normal... and the more a person is tickled the more normal it becomes. +This is also why a lot of people experience becoming less ticklish as they get older. The 'touch' sensation becomes normal. They feel less of a threat. However, this is not true for everyone. How you 'perceive' the tickling touch (normal/violation) is completely a mental thing. You're mentality can be altered based on past experiences affecting your perception, mental training/ alteration of thought patterns... and some would even suggest hypnosis. +Now all this information above is facts from various websites I've researched. I've pieced certain things together and came to my own conclusions in regards to a way to become more/ less ticklish. I know for certain this is the way to become less ticklish. there is plenty of evidence to suggest that. However, by way of becoming more ticklish- note that changing your perception and thought patterns on the subject are not an overnight task. +Also to substantiate my point further- a hell of a lot of people here would agree... being blindfolded enhances the experience. This is because when a person cannot see where the contact is coming from, it enhances the unpredictability of the touch and therefore the feeling of there being a 'threat'. Threat = violation. +Now it's just a matter of figuring out how to change your thought patterns and create present situations to alter you perception of tickling over time. :) +The mind frame +Gosh where to start. This is really a job for both the 'lee and the 'ler. However i'm writing this guide for 'lers- (in the interest of all the 'lees out there) so here's a few things that the 'ler can do. +Imagine I said to you: Hey I'm going to fuck you really hard tonight. Imagine I said this throughout the day. Teasingly. Sexually. Longingly. Threatening. Imagine every now and then I just slipped it into conversation. (Or that an attractive male was saying it to you) +By the end of the day most people would be horny as hell- more so than if I had said it the second before doing it. Because the thought of it has been stewing and running through their minds all day. They have become worked up about it. +You're ticklish. So fucken ticklish. I'm going to attack your poor little toes tonight. I'm going to squeeze and wriggle across your ribs. You're going to be tickled shitless tonight. You're inner thighs are mine, you ticklish brat. I'm going to have the soles of your feet begging for mercy. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. Tickle. +Tease and taunt your 'lee throughout the day. Whisper threats of tickle attacks into their ear. Describe where and how you will tickle. Use the word tickle often. Slip it into regular conversation. For example: imagine you're out to dinner and your 'lee is looking through the menu- the waiter is standing by the table... there are people near by on other tables talking- people who are well in ear shot- and you look at your 'lee cheekily, with a knowing grin and say, ""does the steak and veggie dish TICKLE your fancy?"" Really emphasise the word tickle here. It's a neat little teasing trick to slip the word in to regular conversations. And only your 'lee will know what you are really saying. +Getting a 'lee into the right mind frame will determine how much they will enjoy the session AND how ticklish they will be throughout the session. +ASK QUESTIONS. Generally a 'lee will have a fantasy. They might know details like what they want to wear, how the want to be tied down, what toys they want to use... what things they want said. Before a session- dont be afraid to ask for the specifics. +A person's mind frame can be set up if you say the right things in the right way. You can ask a 'lee if they have any idea about what they want specifically. Personally- here are some things i'd like to hear (as a 'lee) +""Does that tickle?"" (said while looking amused at the giggling 'lee) +""I'm going to tickle you until you cry now"" +""i want to tickle your toes and watch you giggle"" +""if you don't stop giggling, I wont stop tickling you"" +""It's amusing how weak and ticklish you are"" +""dont make me tickle you"" +""I'll tickle you if you don't admit to (insert things here)"" ""I got you exactly where I want you, you ticklish brat/bitch/weakling."" +""Here's a ticklish spot- right here...... feeling helpless now?"" +""Now someone is getting a little tired, tickling too much for you cutie?"" +""If you can't handle being punished, then you shouldn't moan so much and make me want to keep going"" +""I love watching you squirm underneath me"" +""keep laughing, i'm not going to stop"" +""Now that's funny, you are soooo ticklish"" +""put your feet here sweetie, and keep them still"" +""why should i stop when you clearly love it?"" +""ok sweetie put your feet on my lap and try to keep them there"" +""I love how ticklish you are, it's entertaining."" +""Gottcha ribs"" +""Kootchi kootchi koo"" +""What's happening here? I'm not doing anything... yet you seem to be wriggling...and giggling... I'm just running my fingers over your sides...."" +""I'm going to tickle the fuck out of you."" +Language is one tool to get a 'lee in the right mind frame. However, there is also a visual side to tickling. Personally, I know that whenever a guy wriggles his fingers in my direction threateningly- I feel a nervous shiver run over my most sensitive places. There's no harm in playing with visuals such as this. +Try walking up to your 'lee and wriggling your fingers in her direction threateningly. Slowly walking closer and closer while the 'lee backs away nervously. Combine this with some verbal teasing and the 'lee will become very nervous. +These two tools- verbal and visual help to heighten the anticipation of violation/threat when the sensations begin. Remember that the reaction towards tickling is caused by a combination of violation and normality within the touch sensation. Creating a better quality tickle can be as simple as heightening the 'lees perception of a threat. Obviously though, don't scare them too much or else it will become unpleasant. +Tools beyond the mind +Okay, so now that I've basically covered the metal ways to stimulate a good tickling... it should be said that it's not totally a mental reaction. The physical sensations play a large role in creating a good tickle. The question is: how complicated can tickling be? +It may surprise you, but quite a few people don't know how to give a good tickle. Tickling someone can be easy if you want a short little giggle... but for a 'ler it's not about a tiny giggle. For a 'ler it's about really getting that poor defenceless 'lee good. Tickling them like they've never been tickled before. And in order to do that- there are a few things that should be noted. +The first tool a 'ler will ever use is their fingers. It's the only tool they always have on hand. (No pun intended ;) Now there are two types of touch which cause a tickling reaction. Scientifically they are named and labelled below. +Knismesis and gargalesis +Two types of tickling. Gargalesis, as mentioned before, is the kind of tickling where pressure is applied to sensitive spots on the body. Knismesis is the kind of tickling which is very gentle and causes a tingling sensation across the skin. +Now i've noticed generally that a lot of people are really good at one kind of tickling, and not so much the other. I am unsure of whether or not this is due to the fact that they have not been exposed to the variety of tickling techniques- or if they are just unable to produce a different touch style- but either way a good 'ler should be able to do both. +Gargalesis is usually applied to the sides, hips, ribs, stomach, thighs, arse, underarms and knees. Techniques are squeezing, pinching, rough finger wriggling, poking and digging. It is important to experiment with the movements and kinds of touch you use throughout a session. So try alternating between these techniques to find what works best... and keep the 'lee guessing about how you're going to touch him/her next. +Knismesis is generally applied to the feet, ankles, thighs, legs, backs of knees, back, neck, ears, sides, stomach, underarms, arse, and other more intimate regions. People use either their nails or their fingertips to gently travel across the skin. It's important to note that the more gentle you are the better the effect. Touch the skin so that the victim is barely being touch... but just enough to cause a reaction. +It's important also to play with speeds. Start of slow and then speed up... then start all over again. This helps to keep the victim guessing what you are going to do. If they cannot predict the movement of your fingers, they will feel more of a threat and this stimulates the violation sensations. +Another bodily tool which can be used is the mouth. Blowing raspberries, using your teeth or your tongue can be a powerful tool. It is common to lick and bite gently on the toes of a victim to cause a reaction. Scraping your teeth over the soles of their feet or blowing a raspberry on their neck can cause a very intense sensation on them. Experiment with various places and spots on people, remember that everyone is different. +Tools are important as they mix up the sensations. +Tickling needs to be varied as much as possible as a 'lee could become less sensitive in the one spot over time. Keep it moving; even if you need to find a new place ever two seconds. However, watch the 'lee's reactions too. Sometimes the one spot can be torturous if you get the right place ;) +Below is a list of commonly used tools for a good tickling session. +Hairbrush (on the feet) Baby oil Restraints Ties and rope Toothpicks and guitar finger picks Pens +Stockings +moisturiser +Warm damp towel +Feathers +Now I could cover all of them and explain how they could be used, but that would take way too long. So here are a few explanations. +Baby oil /moisturiser /warm wet towel. +These are commonly used on the feet. Wrapping a warm wet towel over the feet can soften the skin after a few minutes and cause them to be much more sensitive. This is recommended if you plan on using your mouth on the feet later. +Baby oil and moisturiser have a faster effect. Possibly a more intense effect also. The slippery wet softening of the skin causes a very very sensitive surface. Nails can be scarped along the feet after this and almost always cause a bigger reaction. +Hairbrush/ toothbrush/ forks +These three items, when used on the feet with baby oil are DEADLY. Some people will complain that it becomes painful when these are used. This however, is only because for some people- the 'violation sensation' becomes too high with these tools. +However, if the violation sensation is not heightened too terribly- watch out poor defenceless 'lee! This is a very strong sensation indeed and can drive your victim crazy. +Feathers /pens / guitar finger pics +The feather may or may not work on your victim. This totally depends on what kind of stimulus they respond to. If it does work- then flutter that feather away. If not... the feather can be good to gently run over the skin anyway. Just to make the area more sensitive. If you warn the 'lee that this is what you are doing... then they will become nervous from the contact. +Using the other end of the feather, using a pen or finger pics can be good on the feet also. The slightly sharp contact on the feet would send a signal to the brain warning of possible harm to the body. Warning that something could cut through the skin. But as this sensation is combined with a degree of 'normal' sensation as well, it causes the tickling response. +Side note: Feathers on the clit can be a crazy tickle tease :P +Positions to enhance sensations +Now it is common knowledge that if the 'lee is blindfolded the sensations are heightened. This is because it enhances the 'violation sensation'. Not knowing where the 'ler is going to strike next is a threat to the body. +One position which works well is to have the 'lee lying face down on their stomach. Don't be afraid to sit on their legs or on their bum to keep them down. Tickle them senseless while they can't more or can't see. +Many 'lees may have a favourite position or bondage arrangement that they prefer. Whatever tickles their fancy to enhance the perfect normal/violation levels for them. Everyone is different. So ask your 'lee what they would prefer specifically. +Another thing to note is that blocking other senses can heighten sensations as well. So ear plugs/muffs, blindfolds and gags may be helpful in doing this. Whatever makes the 'lee more vulnerable is generally the way to go. +THE 'LER'S ROLE +It's important to remember at all times that the 'ler WANTS to tickle and watch the 'lee squirm and giggle. He/she cannot be the one who is not in power. And it's important that all things said/done are driven from the desire to tickle. +I want to note this because a lot of non-fetish ticklers who try to act as a 'ler for their partner mistake erotic tickling for sex. If the 'lee can see that the desire behind the tickling is stemmed from a craving for sexual pleasure- then they are less threatened by the tickling. Because they have no reason to believe the 'ler truly desires to tickle them. +Think of it as a role play. Instead of wanting sex- you want to tickle this victim senseless. No ifs or buts, that is your only desire for the session. +It's also important to note that some lee's will want the 'ler to be both ruthless- yet kind. Some people can perceive erotic tickle torture as a gentler form of bdsm. So perhaps play a little bit of master/ tickle slave.... Be kind- but merciless in the tickling. +Or once again, depending on the person, your 'lee might want you to be all out ruthless. Below are some examples of ways to be ruthless yet kind- if you want to be totally evil and not kind at all- just use the examples below and tweak them to your liking. +Ways to portray the character of the 'ler +1\. Be amused at the 'lee's struggling and helplessness and giggling +2\. pretend to be initially surprised that the 'lee is ticklish at all... seemingly oblivious to the torture they are causing. This gives the 'lee a thrill to think that the 'ler might actually be oblivious and might not stop. +3\. act like you are enjoying the fear and utter helplessness of the lee +4\. start comforting them and speaking gently to them while you torture them with your tickling. +5\. saying things that deliberately embarrass the 'lee without insulting them. such as- +* ""admit you like this"" +* ""did you just moan?"" +* ""oh don't tell me i found the only little girl who likes having her toes being played with"" +* ""i will stop only when you say, ""tickle me master"".... "" +Note also that verbal teasing is very important in the role of the 'ler. They are in control of everything including the conversation. You can't really expect someone to giggle and laugh AND carry a conversation- so work under the notion that they will be doing minimal talking. +Types of 'lers +In my personal experience, there are three types of ticklers. Types of ticklers are a product of experience. They know what works on them, and they do it to others. But it doesn't always occur to them that tickling may be different for different people. +SHY TICKLERS +Ok, this isn't exactly what it sounds like. This does not mean that the tickler is shy about what he or she is doing. However, they are shy to apply pressure. They generally graze +the skin with their fingertips and nails... then wriggle gently across the body... +There is nothing wrong with being a shy tickler. My only advice though is to remember to mix it up if you can. Don't be afraid to apply more pressure. Remember, the brain tells us to squirm and giggle in response to tickling as a warning that one might get bruised. So sometimes being a bit rough is good. Just dig and squeeze until your lee says ""ouch"" and learn where the limits are. It's trial and error until you learn what works for each individual :) +MONSTER TICKLERS +These are the ticklers who are always rough. They struggle to get that gentle tickle touch down. It turns into a flat caress. They apply too much pressure to create a gentle tickle. And they use digging and squeezing techniques in order to get a reaction. +Once again, there is not a problem with being a monster tickler. But my only advice is to practice that gentle touch. Remember that in some ways, less can be more. And if all else fails- use tools! Brushes, nails, pens.... feathers... things that can be soft and create a gentle sensation for you. +SHY MONSTER TICKLERS +The best ticklers ever. No, seriously. If you can be both the shy and the monster- you are totally awesome. And a person can work on becoming a mix, so don't stress if you didn't fall into this category. Not to mention that not everyone needs both types of tickle techniques to get them laughing. +Tickling Feet +Okay, so I'm making a special section just for feet here. It's not a surprise that the foot fetish goes oh-so-well with the tickling fetish. Feet are VERY ticklish due to a concentration of nerve endings in the sole and toes of the feet. So it is common that the licking and biting gently of these areas can be both arousing and ticklish to a person. +It could be said that the best sessions, are those that start of light, and then slowly become more and more unbearable. It's always good to start off with something general and soft like a feather or a brush. This makes the area more sensitive and gets the skin tingling for the torture to come. +There are a few ways to tickle feet. Some people enjoy having their feet bound together. Including having their two big toes tied together. Tying the big toes together restricts movement for the 'lee. That as well as having the ankles bound would have them in a tight spot. +Baby oil works wonders! It's common knowledge. Add baby oil to the feet and use either a hair brush, your own fingertips OR (my favourite) PVC dot knit gloves (grip dots). +Don't forget too that the foot is not just a sole. Play around the toes, the ankles and the top of the foot too. The whole package :D And don't forget your mouth is as good a tool as any. +Tickle Texting +You know what sexting is. But how do you go about it when it's a tickling text? It's basically sending messages or tickle threats, tickle teasing and ticklish phrases to the 'lee in order to arouse them from a distance. +As covered before, the word TICKLE TICKLE TICKLE has a rather strong effect on those of us with the fetish. So tickle texts can be a really fun teasing tool to use. However there are a few things you can do to make the experience of tickle texting more.... arousing. +Generally you can rely on the fact that they will be turned on simply by the word TICKLE itself. So use that as much as possible in the texts. ""tickletickletickle"" can have a strong effect on some 'lees. +Describe EVERYTHING. Use words like digging, pinching, grazing, wriggling and poking. Say WHERE exactly. Is it across the ribs? The sides, or the hips? Is it the upper back or lower back? Front of the neck? Heel of the foot? Between the toes? +Using very straight-to-the-point words like; stomach. Foot. Knee. These are ok, but be as specific as you possibly can. For example: saying ""i am going to tickle the hell out of your foot"" would sound less appealing than: +""I am going to graze my fingertips gently up and down the soles of your feet and wriggle each of your toes until you beg me for mercy"" +So focusing on the HOW and the WHERE is very important. The extra detail in the text allows the imagination of the 'lee to be stirred. If they can vividly imagine every stroke, Every pinch, Every wriggle... Then it can get them really worked up! +Call them names that relate to their liking of tickling.. If they are aroused by the power struggle related to tickling... use words like vulnerable, weak, helpless... playtoy, little girl and any other favoured pet name. +Remember however that not everyone enjoys dirty talk. Some 'lees will like being called a ticklish whore... or less offensively... a weak ticklish girl... and others will prefer baby talk. ""Kootchi kootchi koo, aren't you ticklish? I wonder where else I can find a sensitive spot.... nawww tickle tickle tickle...."" +Alternatively you can mix it up! DIRTY/BABY TALK :P +Erotic tickling +""people who have a tickling fetish are likely to enjoy this activity to the exclusion of other pre-sex activities. For some, the focus is entirely on the tickling, with full intercourse less important or not included at all."" (wikki) +Tickling for most other people is playful. It's not erotic. But for us tickle fetishists it is very erotic. We can use this to our advantage when it comes to sex. Take the playful tickling to a newer level by adding things like arousing phrases, bondage, tickling tools and foreplay into a session. +Erotic tickling can be used to test a 'lee's endurance. Sometimes it's a fun game to tease the 'lee about their endurance. To order them to stop giggling or else you wont stop tickling them. You may find that some 'lees will try not to laugh or giggle at first... until it becomes too much to handle. If you notice they are doing this- it's a sign they might enjoy being teased and taunted about it. +Erotic tickling can also be used for the 'lers own amusement. Now this falls under an element of playing the character of the 'ler. If you are not a tickle fetishist it's important to note this 'amusement' attitude. Some 'lees will find it a turn on that the 'ler finds their struggling and giggling to be amusing. This would especially be amusing to the 'lees who enjoy the power struggle and humiliation elements of tickle torture. +A way to portray that you are amused with the 'lees reactions and struggling would be simply enough to say so. ""This is so amusing to watch you try and escape, especially knowing you have no hope of doing so."" Note also that simple actions such as laughing at the 'lee as you watch them and keeping eye contact with them can help represent this amusement. +Tickling games +Role plays: +Simple idea here: Pretending to be a spy tickling the victim for information. If the victim gives up and tells you the information that you need, then they can be punished with the threat of a second tickling session that will last twice as long as it has taken them to spill the beans to begin with.... +You should start off the role play by telling them you need to weaken them before you even begin to ask questions- 'it's just procedure' (wink wink). That way, if the victim gives up as soon as they can, you have a decent amount of tickling time to double... +Tickle them until they give up- or until you are satisfied that the 'don't have the information you need'. ;) +Memory: +The contestant places their feet in the host's lap. The host speaks out a serious of phrases, one at a time, which the contestant must repeat word for word. Make sure these phrases are things that are a little bit hard to remember and repeat. Now the rules are the the contestant must repeat the phrase without pause or stutter or any mistake. The minute they make a mistake they get tickled for 10 seconds! Then for each time they make a mistake, the number of seconds increases by 5. So the more they mess up, the worse the consequences are. +Still +In this game, you take turns picking a spot to tickle on your partner. You challenge each other on who can stay still the longest throughout the tickle- and the winner gets one wish (ei: a massage, a sexual favour, a free dinner....) +Life Raft +Pick a spot in the room such as the couch or the bed- this is the life raft. Call all other areas of the room as shark infested waters... and as one person is the shark and the other a sinking sailor... the shark tickles the sailor until they reach the life raft. Of course, try and hold the sailor back from the raft as long as you can. :) +PS: There are plenty of tickling games online :) google them :) +Safe words and safety +Okay here's a short section to keep everyone safe :) +Safe words are usually a good thing to have in a tickling session. Just in case the 'lee gets a little too breathless or starts to feel faint. Make sure the word is something short- but that stands out. Something like, ""Elvis"" or ""sharks"" will do the trick. +Keep the 'lee hydrated. It's a lot of hard work tickling. And if done over a period of time... a person can get a dry mouth, or they could sweat quite a bit. It's important to have some water nearby and handy. +Pause words are good also. It's like an alternative to the safe word, where if used, the 'lee gets a ten second break. It's fun to count down the ten seconds out loud to create some suspense. +Tickling NOTES +Hope this was helpful. If there is anything I missed or anything that could be helpful to you- let me know.

What's wrong with this story? +Lots. +Today, as a lactating mother, I will attempt to dispel some of the myths surrounding lactation and pregnancy, which will help make your stories more believable: + **Myth:** Pregnant women lactate. + **Fact:** Women cannot lactate without the right hormonal support. Women also cannot just spontaneously lactate without proper nipple stimulation, such as a baby nursing or using a breast pump. +Cases have been reported of adopting moms lactating by nursing their baby regularly and sometimes taking galactogogues (medicines with a side effect of lactation; most are not originally designed for this purpose). Galactogogues stimulate prolactin, one of the two hormones necessary for lactation. Oxytocin, the other hormone, is stimulated by relaxation and ""bonding"" feelings with the baby. After a mom gives birth, both are naturally present. +Pregnancy is an example of a state in which there isn't the right hormonal support for lactation. If lactating women become pregnant, their milk supply would, in the majority of cases, dry up, because different hormones take over during pregnancy. It is impossible for women to lactate when pregnant the way they do, say, when nursing a two-month-old. +If you hear about colostrum, or pre-milk, that can show up during the second half of a pregnancy. It has more antibodies and protein than regular human milk and is clear or yellowish and there's just a drop or two of it, not spewing white streams of milk. Colostrum turns into regular milk after about 2-5 days post-birth. When that transformation happens, it causes engorgement. + **Myth:** Lactating women's breasts are always engorged. + **Fact:** Mother Nature sends in a huge oversupply to start with, but the mother's body adjusts to make milk on a supply-and-demand basis after a couple of days. If the baby doesn't feed as much one day as usual, the mother's breasts will become engorged, which she can relieve by pumping or hand expressing. If the baby continues to drop nursings, the mother's supply will go down and the engorgement will disappear. + **Myth:** Pregnant/lactating women are always horny. + **Fact:** Pregnant women, like any other women, go through phases where they are hornier than other times. Their heightened senses and higher genital sensitivity both work for and against better sex during pregnancy. +Also, keep in mind for lactating women that if the baby doesn't sleep through the night yet, the mother might rather catch up on sleep than have sex, and this is completely normal. Another thing that can happen is because the hormonal balance is different and ovulation is often halted, the mother may simply have no interest in sex. This is normal, too, and the return of periods and ovulation combined with the baby sleeping better will often cause a resurge in the mother's horniness similar to prepregnancy. + **Myth:** Pregnant and lactating women are supposed to wash their breasts with soap and water every day because the bacteria can be harmful for the baby. + **Fact:** Pregnant and lactating women are supposed to avoid using soap on their breasts. Colostrum and breast milk both have anti-infective properties that are actually stronger than soap! In addition, using soap on the breasts early in pregnancy can increase nipple sensitivity and pain. Women in industrialized countries have access to clean, warm water with which to wash their breasts and often go around with their breasts covered so no dirt gets on them. Their breasts are clean enough! + **Myth:** Nursing makes women horny/Nursing turns women off. + **Fact:** Nursing makes women horny/Nursing turns women off. Depends on the women and how well nursing is established. Most women report nipple pain sometimes accompanied by soreness or cracking during the first 4-6 weeks of nursing, until their nipples adjust to the stretching and pressure. This painful process does not turn on most women. After that, it can go either way. +If it does make them horny, this is perfectly normal and is nature's way of both making sure the baby gets fed because it's a pleasurable experience for mom and perpetuating the species because mom will then seek out dad to make more babies. If it turns them off, it is probably because they feel that their body is for baby only and they feel too ""touched out"" by the end of the day to devote energy to sex. Either feeling is normal. + **Myth:** Lactating women need to use special creams and lotions on their nipples to prevent soreness and cracking. + **Fact:** Lanolin is the only medically approved product for that purpose and does not need to be washed off before feeding the baby. Lansinoh makes one and so does Medela. + **Myth:** Lactating women spray milk when they cum. + **Fact:** Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Depends on how recently they last nursed and whether they are exclusively breastfeeding or not. In other words, if their supply is lower, spraying during orgasm is less likely. +I will add more to this piece as I think of more myths and facts, but I think this covers the most major errors I've seen.

None of what I say should be construed as medical advice. The purpose of this essay is to use my breastfeeding experience to assist lactation fetish authors in discussing the sexy reality of the fetish. I've nursed three babies. I know what I'm talking about._ + _It's important to note that no two women are the same, and no two babies are the same. Each nursing experience is different. I am widely generalizing here, but again, I'm not dispensing medical advice. I know that some women never get a ""let down"" and that hormones and other factors can affect when lactation begins, etc. Keep in mind that my advice comes from my own experience and parenting books, and that my purpose is to help authors write realistically. I'm not trying to titillate the reader; lactation isn't my fetish._ + _* * * *_ +Producing milk is one of the most womanly things a human body can do. It's the reason a woman has breasts and a man just has nipples. Other than being able to grow another person inside her body, nothing separates woman from man more than this ability to nourish her infant from her own breasts. +And that's only one reason it's sexy. +In the fetish category at Literotica, tags like ""milk,"" ""milking,"" ""lactation,"" ""lactating"" and others will take the reader to a plethora of stories involving mother's milk. Like any other fetish, some of these stories represent fantasy more than reality, and there are readers seeking the fantasy more than the reality. Other readers crave the down and dirty reality of their fetish. To write for these readers, an author needs the down and dirty. Here is the down and dirty. + **1\. An author will portray a sexier, more realistic mother if Baby is at least six weeks old.** +The first weeks with a new baby are NOT sexy. Mama needs those first six weeks to heal and to establish a nursing relationship with Baby. A story will be much more believable if the author acknowledges that Mama will have stitches, swelling, hemorrhoids, bleeding, etc., and sex is really out of the question during those early weeks. Mama will also be exhausted to a depth that she never imagined was possible, and she might be a little depressed. +She'll also feel fat. That baby bump that was so adorable a couple of weeks ago now looks like ripples of flab. Her breasts will be huge and sore sometimes. The hormone shift after giving birth may have speckled her face with pimples she hasn't had since she was fifteen. Not sexy. +The other thing that many people don't know is that breastfeeding isn't easy at the beginning, even if it's Mama's third baby. It's natural and Baby has that ""rooting reflex"" that causes him to open his mouth like a baby bird to find Mama's nipple, but it isn't that simple. Newborns don't always ""latch"" properly. To get a good latch, Baby has to take Mama's nipple and areola into his mouth, and get the proper suction with his tongue. As soon as he gets it, Mama will hear the rhythmic swallowing that lets her know that Baby's getting her milk. If he doesn't get it and continues to suckle, Mama will get a hickey and cracked nipples. Sure the lanolin ointment soothes and protects, but that stuff is disgusting. It's thick and sticky and it stains clothes. Nothing sexy about that. +Breastfeeding is a hormonally controlled system of supply and demand. The more Baby nurses, the more milk Mama produces. When Baby goes through a growth spurt, Mama can start to feel as though Baby is on the boob twenty-four/seven. It gets frustrating when Mama wants to do something non-baby related, like take a shower, for example. After six or so weeks, Mama and Baby are more likely to have a good routine established, and any story in which Mama is turned on by the act of nursing another adult will sound less contrived and sexier. + **2\. Boobs are confusing body parts.** +Girls spend their early years wishing they had boobs. When they finally appear, they are intensely sexual. Boys stare at them. Girls wish they were bigger, more beautiful. It feels good when someone touches them. Intensely sexual. +When a woman becomes a mother, boobs are no longer a fashion accessory to dress up in whatever new style Victoria is peddling this season. They aren't the hot pair of tits that used to attract men. They're not hooters anymore, worthy of winning a wet t-shirt contest. +When Baby is born, they become breasts, Baby's sole source of nourishment for the first three months or so. Mothers talk about their breasts and how the breastfeeding is going. They discuss with perfect strangers how their nipples are feeling, and how well the lanolin works to keep them from cracking. They let the lactation consultant grab their breasts and squeeze their nipples to get Baby to latch. Unless Mama happens to be a porn star or a prostitute, more people will see her breasts in the first three months of Baby's life than in the rest of her life put together. +Add to the mix the fact that the nipple goes into Baby's mouth. Even if Mama's sex partner isn't suckling, Mama can feel a little weird about her partner's saliva being on her nipples. What if Baby needs to be fed in the middle of sex? Mama might feel that she has to clean up first. She boils the binkies, if she's a first-time mother. (By the third child, she'll just blow off the dust and give it back to Baby.) Whether or not any of this concern is rational doesn't matter. A new mother isn't the most rational of all beings. +The bottom line is that breasts become desexualized when a woman is nursing a baby. It's confusing for women and can cause stress in a sexual relationship. If the author wants a lactation story to sound realistic, acknowledge the confusion that Mama feels about her breasts. The story will be hotter for it. + **3\. Fuck caffeine and alcohol. Put a turbo-shot of oxytocin in the coffee.** +Oxytocin is an awesome little chemical. It's responsible for a whole bunch of good things in our bodies, but it is the hormone responsible for both orgasm and ""let down"" of breast milk. This is the number one reason that lactation is sexy. +When Baby latches and stimulates the nipple and areola with his tongue, it sends the message to the brain to release the milk. At first, Baby gets a small amount of watery milk, called foremilk. This is the thirst quencher. After a minute or so, the breasts get the memo from the brain, and let down occurs. Later in the nursing session, the creamier hindmilk comes through. This contains more fat, and it satisfies Baby's hunger. +Why is let down sexy? It feels like an orgasm in the breasts. Both breasts, no matter which side Baby is nursing on. Sometimes let down occurs more than once, and when Baby switches to the other side, there is another let down. Awesome and intensely sexual. Oxytocin is good stuff. + **4\. Sharing mother's milk is a little bit taboo for Mama.** +A new mother struggles with an awful lot of feelings, even if it's not her first baby. The postpartum hormones are a crazy cocktail, and they make Mama a little wonky. Acknowledge that in the story, and it adds realism. Acknowledge that Mama is reluctant to admit that any of it is sexy, and it touches on the taboo. Taboo is hot. +Imagine this. Baby is about three months old. Mama has healed and has had sex a few times since Baby was born. Daddy wants to indulge in a little ""lactation play."" + _Scenario #1_ +""Sweetie. How 'bout you let me take a taste of that nectar dripping from your luscious breasts?"" asked Daddy as he thrust his cock in and out of Mama's pussy. +""Oh, yeah,"" said Mama. ""That would be so hot."" +Daddy put Mama's nipple in his mouth and started to suck. Milk sprayed from her nipple as she got more and more aroused. Daddy swallowed his first mouthful, and said, ""Oh, let me put that in my coffee tomorrow."" +""Sure, honey,"" she said. ""Oh, no. The baby's crying. Go get him for me, would ya?"" +Daddy gets the baby from the crib in his nursery and places him gently at Mama's naked breast. Baby nurses on the nipple that Daddy had occupied just a moment ago. + _Scenario #2_ +""Sweetie. How are your nipples feeling? Is that lanolin helping?"" asked Daddy as he fucked Mama gently. +""It worked like a charm. I don't even have to use it anymore,"" said Mama. +""Do you think it would be OK if I kiss your nipples?"" +""I don't know, hon. What if your saliva is on them, and Baby needs to eat?"" Mama said. +""I'll get you a washcloth if he wakes up,"" he said. ""Please? It's been such a long time."" +""OK. But don't suck on them. That's too weird."" +""Why is it weird? You always liked having your nipples sucked."" +""I don't know. I just don't like the idea of them being in your mouth before they go in Baby's mouth,"" she said. +Daddy gently caressed Mama's breasts, causing her to shiver. Her breasts were full and heavy. He thought she had never been so sexy in her life. +""You're so beautiful,"" he said. He reached up to kiss her nipple. ""Just my lips, hon. No tongue."" He placed gentle kisses all around her nipples and areolae and then let his tongue slip over the top of the nipple. He hoped she'd think it was accidental. +""Hon?"" she asked. +""It's OK, sweetie. I'll get a cloth if he wakes up. Just let me taste you."" +Mama didn't answer. Daddy took advantage of her silence and put his lips around her nipple, drawing it gently into his mouth. He suckled again and again, until he felt the warm milk from her breast washing over his tongue. +""Oh,"" Mama sighed. ""This is so wrong, but don't stop."" +Daddy reached between her legs to finger her clit while he nursed at her breast. He took more of her areola into his mouth and sucked harder. Mama moaned, so he sucked again. And again. His finger swirled around and around the hard nub hidden in her pussy as he sucked even a little harder. +All of a sudden, Mama's body tensed, and she started to cry out, ""Oh my god. Oh. I'm coming. I'm coming in my tits too. Oh, god!"" +Daddy's mouth was suddenly filled with warm milk as it sprayed from Mama's nipple. The other nipple sprayed as well, but Daddy didn't notice until he pulled off and was sprayed in the face. Mama giggled with embarrassment. ""I shoulda warned you, I guess. Usually I cover the opposite breast with a nursing pad."" +Daddy got up to get a washcloth to wipe his face just as Baby started to cry. ""I'll be right back with Baby and a washcloth,"" he said. +* * * * +Which scenario seems more realistic? Number 1 for Mama's willingness to indulge in Daddy's fantasy? Or Number 2 for Mama's reluctance to take part in an act that seems wrong to her, even if it's OK to the rest of the world? The taboo makes it hotter. +There is a readership for every fetish at Literotica, and for every fetish, there is the audience that looks for the exaggerated, fantasy-laden tale. There are other readers, however, that like their fetish fiction with a heavy dose of realism. To write to those readers, authors should acknowledge that the ""Mama"" character shouldn't be hopping straight from the delivery room to nursing her partner. Mama won't be feeling too sexy, and she'll still be wrestling with her feelings about her body and having sex. Set the story a few weeks after delivery, and your story will be more realistic and sexier. +Acknowledge Mama's conflicting feelings. Unless she's a robot, she'll have all kinds of things going through her head. Let the reader experience those feelings. Talk about the taboo. +For god's sake, don't skip the let down. Remember that oxytocin is responsible for letting down the milk and for both partners' orgasms. Play with that in the story. The orgasms that will result will be powerful. +Of course, there are other _faux pas_ that fetish authors make when writing a lactation story, but there are other ""how to's"" that deal with the basics of breastfeeding. If nothing else, parenting websites will have that information too. Do research and make it real. That's the key to making your lactation story sexy as hell." +608,"Last Longer, Do Better Sex, Rock!",smoothbadman,How To,2012-05-14,2012-05-14,2022-01-04 08:35:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/last-longer-do-better-sex-rock,How to last longer during sex as a human and make her mmmm.,"['Best Ever Had', 'Better Lover', 'Better Sex', 'Do Better Sex', 'Last Longer', 'One Night Stands', 'Oral Sex', 'Practice Sex', 'Rock Hard Erections', 'Rock!', 'Squirt', 'Unforgettable Sex']",3.17,"This article right here, will make it impossible for women to think that you are bad in bed. No more of those women saying she was bored to death when you were inside of her or her laughing at you when you ask to get inside of her again. No, when you read this, and do what it says, you will be the dick in charge like Ronny Reagan (or was it Nixon). Yeah, if you do what this article says, then you will rock at doing it. Good luck and happy trails. +* +I am not a medical professional or a scientist. I am just an author who has gotten around, so to say. +This article WILL teach you how to be better at sex. You WILL be a better lover if you follow the material in this article. +Nonetheless, if you are reading this because you think that being better at intercourse will prevent a woman from cheating on you or leaving you for someone else, then you are so sadly mistaken. Most times, there is nothing that you can do; it's just how the cookie crumbles. +Growing up, I hung out with older women, in their twenties, who told me that they wouldn't sleep around on their partners because they weren't loose. Even more told me that they were satisfied with their partner's love, and that sex was their gift to them for that love. They told me that they didn't switch from the missionary position most times and on their freakiest and most special occasions they wouldn't try more than three positions but that they were sexually content. They told me that they were more than happy with ten minutes or less of penile penetration, and anything more than that was unnecessary. They told me that having more than one partner in life meant that they were a slut so they picked their men wisely, and sex was the least of their concern. They told me nothing meant more to them than being loved back. They told me that they wanted love, and searching for love does not have anything to do with immorality and stuff like that. +I recommend falling for women of this caliber and not the smut that you could easily have paid for. I am far removed from that now though and it is a long way back for me. +Still, most guys and girls don't want to hear that. +I know that you want to learn to be better at sex, which is why you are here, so I have broken down what it takes to be better at sex into these categories: +1\. Exercise +2\. Effort +3\. Practice +1\. Exercise vigorously! Exercise, Exercise, Exercise! I cannot stress this enough, my man. You need to know how much your body can take before it starts shutting down. If you're like me, (fat, short, small penis, big mouth that can hold both feet in it) then you need to know how good you can be at your best. Your maximal heartbeats per minute are a good indication of how excited you can get before you lose control of your body. No matter how well you pace yourself, you will still need to know how much you can take before you are overly excited. Also, the same way you would relax yourself during exercising to get you is the same way that you would relax yourself during sex. Try jumping rope with a weighted jump rope or using a cardio machine at the gym. It won't make you a sexual athlete or anything to use it every once in a while, but it will make you more confident as to how well you can perform under pressure. Girls don't always like when you stop penetrating her with your penis to perform oral sex on her while using your fingers, unless you already reached orgasm, so try to stay within your limits. By getting too excited, you are likely to blow! Also, try replacing parts of your diet with vegetables. Fruits are okay, but vegetables are better because they aren't as sweet and they help you learn to love things that don't taste so good, like sweat. +2\. You need to put forth effort. If you don't have a male models body, then you can wear a shirt or something, unless she is totally okay with the fat you have. Effort also means that you don't give her any breathing room when it comes to her fantasies. DO NOT COMMIT RAPE OR FORCEFUL SEX on a woman. Women love aggressive males, so don't be afraid to give her what you think works. Rub her clitoris with your fingers, and her body, and kiss, lick, bite, etc. but don't ask for permission or if she likes what you are doing. When you have been together for a while, then she will tell you what she wants you to do for her. In the initial stages of a relationship, or the act itself, she wants to know what you already know about fucking, not how well you ask questions. +Read her signals though. When you are performing oral sex on a woman, try saying LALA, LELA, LULA, LOLA, while crossing your fingers and twisting your wrists clockwise and counter-clockwise in her vagina. She doesn't have to orgasm, but knowing that she could have, is just as nice sometimes. Focus on other parts of your body when you are going in and out of her vagina with your penis. Set a rhythm that you can work with then focus on your fingers that should be rubbing her clitoris in different ways. Focus on your feet that should be playing footsie with her. Focus on your tongue that should be licking and kissing her all over while you are having sex, and so on. Take everything that she is saying negatively, too (harder, faster, deeper, etc.), as if she is trying to say that you are not doing what you are supposed to be doing right. +However do not let it get to you or you might lose your erection. Kegel exercises, I find, help you ejaculate a greater distance but as for preventing you from reaching orgasm, not so much. Doing it often enough, I found that it prevented me from seeing semen but it didn't help me from feeling like I had an orgasm, which defeated the purpose as my erection went down. I had much better results with riding a bicycle on holding back my orgasm. Also, any position where she must actively use her abdominal muscles, even if you must hold her in that position, will make her orgasm, given that she is in the mood to reach it. Multiple orgasms are doing that over and over, exerting those muscles to the limit repeatedly. +Again, an earth shattering orgasm is like a level of excitement that your body reaches then gives up or out, so a man ejaculates, and a woman reaches orgasm. When a woman creams, it may just be vaginal fluid that is thicker than another woman's or so. Like a male's semen, it is different for different people, so to speak. +3\. Practice with your woman or with women. One night stands are a good indication of whether or not she thought that you were good in bed. Having known good and well that it was only supposed to happen once, if she comes crawling back for more via phone call, text message, e-mail, letter, etc. then you KNOW it was good to her. +Practice with your girl by saying that you want to be good to her so you will try tirelessly day after day until you are great at it. If she doesn't exercise, then you may find it hard to get her to squirt or even reach that mind-blowing orgasm people talk about on television. I also found that a woman's squirt is nothing more than you forcing her bladder to piss. It looks like piss, it tastes like piss, it smells like piss, and if she doesn't drink water then it can be golden yellow in color too, like piss. I guess there is something to be said for a man who can make a woman pee during her most vulnerable time but, if you asked me, that is just urine (mixed with vaginal fluid because it's still sex) and I would need scientific evidence to prove otherwise. +That exercise thing works both ways, for guy and girl, because it makes for a stronger erection of the penis and clitoris, which makes for more sensation during that big moment when your body gives out and walls come crashing in, if you know what I mean. +And, if she does the things from my article titled ""Please Your Man: How To Make Him Mm"" (check it out) then BEG FOR MERCY." +609,Leather Care for the BDSM Community,Navajazz,How To,2009-07-24,2009-07-24,2022-01-04 08:35:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/leather-care-for-the-bdsm-community,How to look after your leather equipment.,"['Bdsm Toys', 'Leather', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex Toys']",4.69,"One of the nicest things about my interests in caring for and riding horses, and in the BDSM lifestyle is the overlap in the equipment used for both activities. From whips to bit gags, crops to boots, and all the other leather harnesses and equipment, leather is a predominant material for both equestrians and Dominants, horses and submissives (especially pony girls and boys). However, despite the universal recognition of the role of leather equipment and accessories in the BDSM scene, I find very little readily available information concerning the care and cleaning of leather. +Leather items usually are expensive to purchase, and with a modicum of intelligent care, can last for decades. In addition to the purchase price for leather, it is a material that was created by the taking of an animal life, and that too deserves respect. Leather is not a manmade fabric that needs a mere wipe down with a damp cloth before being packed away in an airless box. In fact, leather that has been wet and then is packed away without good air circulation will be ruined. It will become cracked and brittle and the last thing any Dominant wants is for a harness to fail mid-scene! The following passages will outline the best ways to maintain leather equipment, whether your use of it is as a horseperson or Dominant/submissive lifestyle participant. +It is of primary importance to remember that leather is a porous material, and that any untanned leather surface will soak up moisture -- whether the moisture is water, lubricant, sweat or sexual fluids. Once the leather absorbs moisture, if left uncleaned, the leather can become excessively dry, making the leather crack, split or snap. It may seem counterintuitive to use warm water on leather, given my caution about the problems of moisture and leather, but that is the first line of defense. Using a clean, soft cloth or sponge, apply warm water (NO soap or detergent) to the areas of leather that were exposed to moisture. If there are oils or greases on the leather that are not diluted and removed by applying warm water, use the cloth or sponge to rub it off or, if the material is very thick (i.e., wax), it should be scraped away with a knife before the warm water is applied. Once the leather has been cleaned with the warm water, leave it out to air dry, away from direct heat sources like heaters or bright sunlight. +If the leather is very old or stiff, apply oil (i.e., linseed or neats foot) to soften and feed the leather. The best tool to use for application of the oil is a soft paintbrush with good bristles that will not fall out after one application. Apply the oil sparingly, observing how well the leather is absorbing it before applying additional oil. Many thin coats of oil are better than one thick coat. When the leather no longer is absorbing the oil applied, leave the leather article to air dry, again away from heat sources and direct sunlight. +Now that the leather has been cleaned and fed, it can be soaped. Good quality saddle soap is available in any equestrian supply shop or online; an alternative is to use unscented glycerine soap, which is available generally in bar form. Saddle soap can be purchased in two forms, either solid (in bars or in containers) or liquid (in spray bottles). If using solid soap, apply a little water or spit on to the soap, and then wipe a sponge across the soap. Once soap has been picked up on the sponge, wipe the sponge across the leather to be soaped. If there are large quantities of white lather as the leather is being soaped, the sponge is too wet. The soap and sponge should barely be damp for this process. Use the sponge in small areas, massaging the sponge to work the soap into the leather. If spray soap is being used, apply the spray to the cloth or sponge -- not directly onto the leather -- and apply the soap as directed above. +Yes, cleaning leather as set out here takes time and effort, and even a little expense. But the rewards of taking that care are many, including saving money and having leather equipment ready and able to meet the demands of a BDSM lifestyle. Kept in good nick, good leather will last a lifetime -- and what a lovely training exercise, to remove a submissive's leather gear only to instruct the submissive to clean and care for it so that it can be used on the submissive again in future!" +610,Let 'Em Eat Cock!,Svenskaflicka,How To,2005-05-20,2005-05-20,2022-01-04 08:35:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/let-em-eat-cock,How to make a cake for a bachelorette party.,"['Bachelorette Party', 'Bake Cake', 'Baking Soda', 'Balls Make', 'Black Cock', 'Cock Make', 'Eat Cock']",3.89,"**Let 'Em Eat Cock!** +(or How To Bake A Cake For a Bachelorette Party) +The perfect thing to serve at a bachelorette party, or at any other girls' night out (or perhaps when you're in a shitty mood and just want to go Lorena Bobbit on some dickhead – this is at least a legal way of getting those feelings out!).

At least this cock won't get your tummy as round as the real thing... +You'll need the following for the cake itself: +3 eggs 2 cups of sugar 2 cups of flour 2 teaspoons of baking soda 1 teaspoon of vanilla sugar 0,5 cups of milk +(Note! If you want to make a black cock, double the amount of ingredients and add 2 tablespoons of cacao.) +For the filling, choose between 2 cups of custard or 2 cups of raspberry jam, whichever you like better. +(You could very well choose any sort of jam you like, really. Blueberry jam might give this a touch of French Revolution and the chopping off of the Aristocrats'... heads, which might be suitable for Halloween or a theme party..?) +For the decoration, you'll need: +3 cups of cream (whipped, that is!) +Red food colouring, OR cacao (depending on what color you want to make this cock. You COULD use yellow food colouring if you want to go for an Asian style, or why not green, if you're a Trekkie...) +Chocolate pretzels +Here's how to bake the cake: +We'll start by making the shaft and the balls. Mix eggs and sugar and whip it good – go dominatrix on it! Go on, you know you always wanted to try it... +OK, now melt the butter and let it cool off – not so much that it gets hard again, just so much that you could dip your finger in it without burning yourself. Body temperature is pretty much what we're aiming for. +Next step is to mix all the dry goods, ie the flour, the baking soda, and the vanilla sugar, together in a separate bowl. (If you use cacao, add that too.) +Stir the butter down into the mix of eggs and sugar. Add the milk. Keep stirring all the time! +Now it's time to add the mix of dry goods, a little at a time, to the wet stuff. Make sure you stir it good so there won't be any lumps. +Once this is done, you should prepare the pans. Butter two large cupcake pans and a square baking pan. (If you're making a black cock, make that a large rectangular pan.) Pour the mixture into the pans. Bake in the oven at 250 degrees Centigrade (whatever that is in Fahrenheit, I have no idea – when, oh WHEN will you yanks adopt the Metric system???) for 5-10 minutes. Be sure not to burn it! Check with a match to make sure when the cupcakes are done. Let everything cool off for a while. +Spread the jam or the custard, whichever filling you prefer, but preferably not both, as it will be messy; over the square, in an even layer. Now carefully roll up the cake like a burrito. Even more carefully, lift the cake up and place it on a nice serving plate, with the open side down. Place the cupcakes at one end of the rolled-up cake. They will be the balls. +OK, the cake is done, but it doesn't look like a cock, now does it? Nope. It looks like a large, odd burrito and two cupcakes. Time to add the skin! +Whip the cream, and add food colouring or cacao to give it the right colour. Don't add too much at once, start with just a little at a time; that way you can control just how pink or brown (or yellow or green or...) you want it to be. +Smear the coloured cream out in an even layer over the cock and the balls. Try to make it look smooth. Draw a line in the cream a little from the top of the shaft, to make the shape of the head. +Sprinkle pretzels around the base and over the balls to make it look like hair. You may skip this part if you're into clean-shaven crotches, but it does add a bit of fun – and a bit of crunch – to the cake. +Boner appetit! +PS) Yes, I have made fun of the clichés about black men being well endowed when writing down this recipe, but that's just because I have a husband who demands several pans... ^.~" +611,Let Him Use Your Face,Goey,How To,2012-05-27,2012-05-27,2022-01-04 08:35:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/let-him-use-your-face,Let yourself go and let him take control.,"['Blowjob', 'Oral', 'Submissive', 'Throat']",4.53,"If the idea of blowjobs or taking some nice warm cum on your face offends you, this is not for you. For me blowjobs are a beautiful thing. Slow, romantic, rough, submissive, dominant - there's so much to blowjobs it'll be impossible to write everything down in one go - so this is about the rough type. Girls, you'll need to be submissive to enjoy this fun. +This isn't about you teasing him, you being in charge or anything of the sort. This is about him grabbing your head and ramming his cock repeatedly down your throat while you gag and splutter on it. +First: all women can deepthroat. Men love it so learn to do it. It's just not fair to keep it from him just because you gag a little, the look of pleasure on a man's face, his eyes rolling back as your lips reach the bottom of his shaft is worth it and if you can do it no man will leave you (unless he's a complete idiot). Sorry if this sounds sexist but it really isn't that hard a thing to learn to do (and you'll probably get jewellery more often). +This is where being close helps, the only way you're going to be get used to having cock down your throat is to take cock down your throat. People say use frozen bananas but having something cold down my throat just sounds painful. +Put a towel on the floor by the side of the bed, there's going to be a lot of spit. Lay on your back with your head hanging off the side of the bed, this is probably the easiest position to get throat fucked in. After a few throat fuck sessions you'll be able to give deepthroat pretty easily as your gag reflex will be better trained. +Have him stand on the floor and push his cock into your mouth, balls deep and keep it there until you need to breath. After doing this a few times let him fuck your throat. You're going to gag and splutter, don't worry about it. Lots of spit is all part of this so gag away. It'll often feel like your going to be sick, just go with it, fighting it will hurt. Most of the time it's just thick spit and nothing nasty coming up BUT if you are sick, stop - clean up and either get back to it or do it another day. If he wants the pleasures of your mouth he's going to have to put up with it. Hopefully you're both mature enough to deal with this. +When he's ready to cum I suggest having him pull out, open your mouth and have him jerk himself so he shoots into your open mouth, he'll still get some on your face so you get that sensation as well but you also get to taste it. You can either swallow it down or let it dribble out over your face, both are great. +My man also loves cumming straight down my throat, as you're being throat fucked it's easy for him to do, it's nice but feels pretty weird (like drinking without swallowing) and you'll miss out on tasting it. +Once you're used to taking his whole cock in your throat the real fun can begin. Put a towel on the floor, get on your knees and have him handcuff your hands behind you. I suggest putting heavy non-water proof make-up on as well, give him that slut look which runs with tears. +Let him fuck your throat for a while to get his cock nice and sloppy. And now show him why he loves you. Rub your face all over his cock, suck and lick his balls. His balls are very important, lick them, suck them, one at a time, both at the same time. Make love to his nuts with your face basically - it'll drive him wild. Tell him how big he is, how much you hunger for it. +Rubbing your face against a hard cock and balls feels really good and it'll make him bust his nuts big time. This at the end of the day is all about getting a big load out of him (well it is for me anyway hehe). +Depending how your man cums depends where he should cum. Mine shoots pretty far so I like it when he cums on my tits first, and then lets a few spurts out onto my face. If he aims for my face first I only get the second half as his first couple of spurts shoot over me and thus is wasted. +If he doesn't shoot far have him point that thing straight at your face. You want as much cum on your face as possible basically. Not only will he like the look of your make-up ruined cum drenched face you'll feel like such a naughty slut your whole body will be tingly and you'll be smiling for days. +Whenever we have a proper throat fucking session I get the biggest cum glazing ever - so be prepared to be soaked as your man gives you your reward." +612,Let The Characters Do The Talking,ronde,How To,2004-01-08,2004-01-08,2022-01-04 08:35:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/let-the-characters-do-the-talking,A short guide for writing believable dialogue.,"['Hershey Highway', 'Home Pet', 'Man Calls', 'Proper English', 'Real People', 'Receiving Oral', 'Sex Janice', 'Spell Checker', 'Tall Men', 'Word Choice']",4.79,"Most written fiction consists of the narrative description of characters and their actions. While this technique serves to communicate the author’s thoughts to an audience, readers can often infer the same information if the author makes careful use of dialogue. Screenplays use dialogue in this manner. It is true the playwright also makes suggestions for action and body language, and directors refine these suggestions, but most of the story is told by dialogue. +The purpose of this guide is to provide some techniques for writing dialogue that flows naturally and brings the reader into the conversation between characters. It will not define proper grammar, for most of us seldom use proper grammar in everyday speech. Proper punctuation will also not be discussed, as there are several excellent resources available on that subject. +The following excerpt of a conversation between two people is an example of the power of dialogue. +“Janice, why don’t you just ask him?” +“God, I couldn’t ever do that. I’d be embarrassed to death.” +“Why?” +“Because! Barry’d think I’m weird or something.” +“You seemed to like your first time. I know I did.” +“Well…, yes…, but with you it’s different. You’re a woman, and…, well, you don’t think it’s nasty. Barry would.” +“He might surprise you. Jim thought it’d be gross ‘til he tried it. Now, I can’t stop him.” Gina giggled. “Don’t really want to, either.” +“You’re terrible.” +“Yeah, that’s what Jim says, too, but he likes a lickin’ as much as we do.” +The above exchange is comprised of eighteen sentences (not necessarily complete ones), and contains less than a hundred words. Only two of these words are not dialogue, yet the exchange conveys as much information as several paragraphs of narration. +What might a reader gather from the above? +1\. The speakers are women. +2\. Their names are Janice and Gina. +3\. The speakers are both attached to men +4\. The names of the men are Barry and Jim. +5\. Barry belongs with Janice. Jim belongs with Gina. +6\. Janice and Gina are probably close friends, or they wouldn’t speak so candidly. +7\. Janice and Gina have recently had a bi-sexual liaison involving oral sex. +8\. It is Janice’s first bi-sexual and first oral experience. +9\. Janice is not very open in discussing sex with Barry. +10\. Janice is embarrassed by her feelings and hesitant to admit them. +11\. Janice may be embarrassed by her body. +12\. Janice liked her experience. +13\. Barry appears to be conservative in his view of sex. +14\. Janice is worried about what Barry would think of her newfound pleasure. +15\. Gina seems to be a fun-loving person with few inhibitions. +16\. Gina either taught Jim about oral sex, or at least encouraged him to try it. +17\. Gina appears to enjoy giving oral sex to both men and women. +18\. Gina appears to enjoy receiving oral sex. +19\. Gina and Jim probably have very open communications about sex. +20\. Jim enjoys giving and receiving oral sex. +It is of note that it required almost twice the number of words used for the dialogue just to list the above information and it reads like what it is – a list. To convey the same information in an interesting narrative form would require many more words. Narration is also subject to becoming “information overkill”, where nothing is left to the reader’s imagination. Most readers would rather “fill in the blanks”, or at least some of them, with their personal visions. +We all meet people, listen to what they say, and develop understandings and impressions of them without benefit of a narrator explaining things to us. The beauty of dialogue is that it allows the reader to exercise the same skill. Dialogue is usually more interesting to read, as well. +Some readers may not read as much into the conversation and some may read in more. The point is the reader interprets rather than reads, just as we do in real life. Few of us analyze every word a person says. We don’t think, “Brown bark, green leaves, tall trunk, wide branches, etc.” when we read the word “tree”. Our mind simply forms a picture of a tree based on our experiences with things called trees. It isn’t necessary for the author to completely describe every detail. +The author should remember that dialogue is not just the spoken words of the characters in a story. First person narration is, in reality, dialogue spoken by the main character. The storyteller’s statements, although not enclosed in quotation marks, should, and will, represent that character’s manner of speech. In some cases, the same applies to the narrator of a third person story, although the author must take care to avoid biasing the narrator if an objective relating of the events is desired. +So, how does one use dialogue to advantage and what are some pitfalls? +1\. They walk the walk, but do they talk the talk? +The primary thing to remember when writing dialogue is to write as people really speak. Real people do not always use complete sentences. Real people use contractions at every opportunity. Real people shamelessly dangle their prepositions all over the place. Real people make veiled statements the listener must question in order to understand their true meaning. If they are to seem real, characters should speak as a reader would expect from their personality, social status, and the circumstances of the conversation. +Dialogue is an easy way to define personality types without actually writing a description. For example, the following three sentences should lead the reader to identify three distinct personalities. +“I should never make public such a demonstration of my own ineptitude.” +“I wouldn’t ever tell anybody I made such a stupid mistake.” +“Ain’t nobody ever gonna hear I done that shit.” +All three statements say the same thing. The first could lead the reader to visualize either a fanatical Professor of English or a somewhat stuffy person who is attempting to impress the listener with his or her education. The second speaker would seem “normal” to most of us. The third, well…, a pot- bellied guy with shaggy hair, a three-day beard, and camouflage bib overalls with a snuff can circle on the right hip pocket comes to mind. It’s entirely possible marriage isn’t the only family bond between his parents. +Now, consider the difference between these two statements. +“I have never before had intercourse with any man excepting my husband. I thought I could never bring myself to commit adultery.” +\- and - +“I never slept with anybody but my husband before. I didn’t think I could ever cheat on him.” +The second statement is more typical of what we would expect to hear from most women. The first, while an example of proper English, seems stiff. It could also be confusing because, when a speaker is attempting to make a point, he or she will sometimes revert to more proper English for emphasis, as in: +“I will have you know, I have never slept with anyone but my husband before. Cheating is not something I do regularly.” +The lack of contractions can indicate anger, outrage, or other strong emotions, but when every line is “proper”, how will the reader know the mood has changed? +Do not be fearful of “invented” contractions. People routinely say, “there’ll be hell to pay”, “what the hell’re you waiting for?”, and “John’d never do that.” Just follow the rules for “normal” contractions and use an apostrophe to indicate the omitted letters. +Oh, be sure to dangle some prepositions now and then. That’s what they’re there for. +2\. Chitchat is our friend. +The common stereotype of women is that they talk a lot and don’t really say much. Sometimes this is true, but men are guilty of the same thing. People are apt to talk about anything from how they think they look, to the appearance of other people, to any and all juicy gossip. Usually this will be done in the company of close friends, but such could be an exchange between strangers in some circumstances. An author can make use of idle talk between people to describe them or other characters. Some examples - +“Hate like hell to say this, Harry, but you better lay off the beer and pizza if you ever want to get laid. I’ll bet you have to use a mirror to take a leak, don’t you?” +“Honey, if I had those, Jack’d never even let me get dressed. Just one question, though. Can you sit up all by yourself, or do you need help?” +“Mabel’s cryin’ about how big ‘er butt is and how she seen me looking at that new secretary down at the bank. So I tell ‘er I like that big satchel-ass more’n my bass boat, and if she’d just stop worryin’ about how she looks and bend over, I’d show ‘er.” + “Officer, I am sorry I don’t look like my driver’s license picture. I just took three kids to school in this downpour and then locked myself out of the car at the grocery store. I am soaked to the skin, my makeup looks like a mud puddle, and I have to pee, so just give me the ticket and let me go home.” +“Hey, man. I saw you talkin’ to that short blonde with the little shorts and bikini top. She yours or have I got a chance?” +We all have conversations that can serve as models for this sort of dialogue. Next time, listen carefully and take mental notes. People will think you’re strange if you start writing down what they say. +3\. Condoms for the social diseases of language. +It’s a short jump between incomplete sentences and contractions to the vernacular, but the author should be aware of the hazards involved in writing slang and regional dialects. +Even people intimate with the language often misunderstand slang. Over the span of only a few years, the meaning of words can be modified or even completely reversed. Slang users also have a propensity to invent words. It is likely that readers for which English is a second language would have trouble understanding much of the American slang spoken today. The simple statement, “I’m so blue.”, is confusing when interpreted literally, as would be, “crotch rocket”, “He’s one mean mother.”, “Rub some funk on it, baby.”, or “Lay it on me”. What is that “it”, anyway? +Some readers of recently legal age might have difficulty with, “The pigs are outside, so flush the roaches, man.”, or the term “raincoat” used instead of condom. Some, shall we say, more experienced readers would have no idea of the meaning of “blog”, “rave”, “goth”, or any of the common chatroom abbreviations. +For some reason, slang terms used in reference to a woman’s breasts seem to have universal understanding. The author can invent nearly any word and that word will be understood. A few examples that come to mind are - “puppies”, “tatas”, “howitzers”, and “bazzongas”. Have lots of fun with this one. How about, “Holy shit, will you get a load of the cabbanochinis on that babe.” or “Damn, I wish I could smother myself with those manongarollies of hers.” +When writing slang, the author must consider the audience for which the work is intended and should stick to slang with which he or she is familiar. It’s too easy to misuse a term, and that will leave the reader wondering why it doesn’t fit. Just for kicks, try asking for a “buggy” in a Detroit grocery store sometime, and see what happens. In the North, they’re called shopping carts, but in the South, we use “buggies”. We also “carry” people places instead of taking them, even though they’re perfectly capable of walking on their own. +Regional dialects bring on an entirely new set of problems for the author. Should one attempt to define pronunciation, or just let the readers figure it out as best they can? At what point does the dialogue become unreadable? +The apostrophe is one tool for solving this dilemma. “Them”, becomes “‘em”, as in, “I got ‘em good.” “Him” becomes “’im”. One Chicago pronunciation of “didn’t” becomes “di’n’t”, and thus the problem of apostrophes begins to rear it’s swollen, purple head. Use of an apostrophe for every omitted letter group can make the dialogue unreadable. +An alternate means of communicating pronunciation is phonetic spelling. The word “di’n’t” above actually sounds more like “dint”, and could be spelled this way. Thus are born, “gotcha”, “wanna”, “wouldja”, and a whole vocabulary unique the Southern United States. These words would include, “weekn”, “yawanna” and “iffen”, as in “Weekn go skinnydippin’ down t’the crick, iffen yawanna see me nekkid.” +For those authors who escaped inoculation with grade school Phonics, just spell it like it sounds. Some odd-looking words will result, but by taking reasonable care, most readers will probably grasp the meaning. Oh, and yes, any spell checker will have screaming fits with all those words, but just keep clicking on “ignore”. Don’t click on “add to dictionary”, or the spell checker will start missing the legitimate screw-ups. +As with slang, it is prudent to write dialects with which one is familiar. It is much better to write the language common to most than to butcher perfectly good vernacular, and most readers won’t notice. Screw up a good old Southern boy’s favorite verb-osition and he’ll be sure to let you know. +4\. Who’s it?, also known as tagging. +For those who may not be familiar with the term, “tagging” refers to the technique of using narrative to denote a speaker and/or the speaker’s state at the time. Typical “tags” would include, “he said”, “she whined”, and others. The common sentence structure for tag use is: +“How can you say it’s too small?”, he sobbed. +Too many tags can become annoying because they chop up the flow of speech between the characters. In two-person conversations, tags are usually not needed to identify the speaker. If each character’s “lines” are defined by a new paragraph, and the reader can figure out who started, there will be little confusion. Which version of the conversation below between Darlene and James reads more easily? +“I get off on tall men with beards because I’m short.”, said Darlene. +“I have a beard.”, said James, “and I like short women.” +\- or – +“I get off on tall men with beards because I’m short.” +“I have a beard, and I like short women.” +We don’t really need to tag the lines, because we already know the sex and identity of each speaker. It would not make sense for James to say he gets off on tall men with beards, and for Darlene to then say she has a beard and likes short women. Well, on second thought, if the story is way out there in weird- world, some tags could probably be helpful. +It is also possible to identify a speaker by having the speaker address the listener by name. The above statement by James could be written: +“Darlene, I have a beard, and I like short women.” +There would be no confusion about the identity of the speaker since there are only two people in the conversation, and the speaker has addressed Darlene. +Another method uses more narrative, but avoids the proliferation of “he said”, “she said”, etc. +John looked at Darlene and grinned. “I have a beard, and I like short women.” +Tags are often placed after the speaker’s statement. This method works, but when used to indicate the speaker’s mood, putting the tag in front of the statement can help the reader to better understand what’s really being said. Consider these two versions of a conversation. +“I’m going home to pet my kitty.”, said Rhonda. +“My kitty is about dead. She ran into a train last night.”, chuckled Rita. +\- or - +“I’m going home to pet my kitty.”, sighed Rhonda. +Rita chuckled. “My kitty is about dead. She ran into a train last night.” +In the first version, the reader may have to re-read the statement after learning Rita’s mood. This breaks up the flow of the story. In the second, the reader understands Rita’s mood before reading her statement and gets to enjoy “hearing” her chuckle as she speaks. +If more than two people are engaged in conversation, the problem becomes more difficult. The same tag techniques work for groups, but unless the author figures out how to have an “it” in the scene, there will always be at least two “he’s” or two “she’s”. The standard, “he/she said”, doesn’t tell a reader much. It’s best to use a combination of methods to avoid making the dialogue monotonous. +5\. Speechus Interruptus, or, how to define pauses and cut-offs +When we speak, we never run all our words together in a perfectly timed cadence. We pause in embarrassment or other emotion, for emphasis, to breathe, or just to consider what we’re about to say. Other people interrupt our statements in their rush to finish our thought or to comment on what they think we’re going to say. Defining these pauses and cut-offs helps make dialogue seem more natural. +Use of the ellipsis (three periods in sequence) is a little sticky. Some authors don’t use them at all while others seem to get along quite admirably with these cute little triplets of the punctuation population. (OK, we’re going to talk about punctuation just this once.) +The ellipsis may be used to denote a pause or a “trailing off” in speech, and performs this function amazingly well. Although the words are all the same, there is a vast difference between these two lines of dialogue. +“Hillary, if I’d known you felt that way, well, I wouldn’t have slept with you last night.” +“Hillary…, if I’d known you felt that way…. Well…, I wouldn’t have slept with you last night.” +The first is a fairly straight-forward statement of fact. The second is hesitant, as if the speaker is having difficulty making the statement. Perhaps the speaker is upset, perhaps sad, perhaps attempting not to laugh, but in any event, the words are not coming easily. +As the example indicates, pauses are denoted by an ellipsis followed by a comma, and “trail-offs” by an ellipsis and a period. Yes, that makes four little periods, all in a row. +Cut-offs can be represented by the hyphen. +“But I gave you roses and candy, and I –“ +“You forgot about the hemorrhoids, you sick bastard” +6\. A few words are worth a thousand pictures +The subject of word choice in erotic writing has been discussed in numerous instructive works, but deserves another mention here. The words people use in conversation, erotic or otherwise, are reflective of their personalities, base moral code, and their familiarity with others in the conversation. The intimacy of their speech may change with time, but the conversation usually starts out pretty tame. +Characters who just met would not be likely to make statements such as, “I’m gonna fuck you so hard you’ll think you’re ridin’ a jackhammer.”, or, “I’d just love to suck that big horse cock of yours until you cum buckets all over my big fat tits.” In a pure fantasy, such statements may find acceptance, but not in a story presented as a possible reality. It’s more believable, and builds the story better, if the dialogue becomes more explicit as the characters grow closer. A couple exceptions would be if one of the characters is being paid to participate, or if the scene has D/s overtones. +When with someone we know well, we speak more openly, although sometimes not directly. We use terms that have special meaning only for us, as well as pet names for each other and certain body parts and functions. It is not unusual for these terms and pet names to sound pretty dumb to others. That’s why we keep them secret. Characters come to life when they let us in on such little secrets and the background behind them. +“Hey there, Honey. What say we go make us a peach pie? I got the ice cream.” +“Sorry there, Swizzle Stick. All I got is cherry for about three more days, remember? Think I might like a little ice cream, though. Can I lick your spoon?” +\- or maybe – +“Wow! That was definitely far out. When you sat on me and did that thing…, well, I’m gonna call you “Slurpy” from now on.” +\- or even - +“I’m embarrassed to tell you this, but Jim says the guys at the office call you ‘The Icewater Angel’ because you won’t go out with any of them. Now that I know why, you’re gonna be my ‘Hot Little Licky Devil’, ‘cause, damn girl, you get me hotter’n Jim ever thought about.” +Word choice in dialogue will always define characters, and sometimes may do so against the author’s will. The man who calls it a “cunt” is not the same man who calls it a “kitty”. Now think about the women who make the same references. They’re pretty different, aren’t they? If the person defined in the narrative doesn’t match the one defined by dialogue, the story can lose credibility. Readers just won’t believe your fifty-year-old maiden aunt with six cats would really scream “More cocks, I need more cocks.”, while suspended from the ceiling by surgical tubing during her weekly gang-bang. +While we’re on this subject, think twice and thrice about all those adjectives. Do real people ever really say, “Jam that big, hot, throbbin’ cock in my teeny, tiny, tight little bung-hole and shoot me full of your hot, sticky jizz.”? It’s never happened to me, but then, perhaps I’ve lived a sheltered life. +We won’t even talk about imaginative euphemisms like “man meat”, “fuck tunnel”, “pud pudding”, and the ever-popular “Hershey highway”. “Hershey highway”? Come on, now. Really? +7\. Examination time. (No, not that kind of examination. Put away those latex gloves and that shiny spreader thing.) +As with all writing, the ultimate test of dialogue is in the reading. Let the story sit for a week or so. This allows the mind to forget exactly what has been written so actual reading is required. Read the narration silently and the dialogue aloud. Although most readers won’t actually give voice to the dialogue, this is how they will “hear” the story. It is more fun for anyone within hearing distance, but not necessary, to vary the pitch of one’s voice to mimic gender and mood. Watch for one or more of the seven warning signs of dialogue disaster. For the uninitiated, these signs are listed below. +1\. Uncontrollable giggling or the spewing of any beverage from one’s nose. +2\. Any exclamation or thought along the lines of, “What was I smokin’ when I wrote, ‘Oooooohhhhh, Goddddddd, now!!!!!! Fill my incredibly hot, dripping, wildly-pulsating spunk sump with all your thick, gooey, white, creamy, guy gravy’?” +3\. The realization that the nymphomaniac hooker with really big tits sounds just like a prominent US Senator. +4\. The realization that the prominent US Senator sounds just like a nymphomaniac hooker with really big tits. +5\. Finding a word containing so many apostrophes it appears to have been attacked by a whole band of cute little female ninjas who all have a really serious case of PMS. +6\. Difficulty in remembering how “zshurlilcoochywetnotyet” is supposed to sound when lovingly whispered by the cigar-smoking, blonde, bike-dyke from Lickskillet, Louisiana. +7\. An uncomfortable feeling that a statement is out of character for the speaker. It’s easy to introduce one personality at the beginning of a story, and then “bend” the character to say what the author wants a reader to hear. If a slut is desired at the end of a story, she needs to either start out as such or have a personality-altering experience somewhere along the way. This is why the story should sit for a while. The author needs to develop an overall impression of each character as he or she was written. +Writing dialogue is much simpler than many authors believe. When writing a particular scene, most of us know what we want to happen and how the scene will unfold. We have a feel for what the characters would say, but rather than write that, we try to explain the events with narration. Sometimes, that explanation requires further narration just to make it understandable. Next time, try letting the characters do more of the talking. They’re more than willing if you’ll just give them a chance." +613,Let's Get Fit,davion2308,How To,2009-07-22,2009-07-22,2022-01-04 08:35:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/lets-get-fit,How to lose weight in a healthy manner.,"['Diet', 'Dieting', 'Exercise', 'Fitness', 'Health', 'Instructional', 'Motivation', 'Nutrition', 'Thin']",4.39,"LET'S ALL GET FIT! +If there is one thing everyone wants, it's a healthy, physically fit body. We see beautiful people on television or in commercials and we want to be them. Obesity is an epidemic all around the world and healthy changes are an immensely popular topic for media. On websites, one can find 100 articles with tips and hints to lose weight. There are television shows like Biggest Loser where the audience watching thinks, ""I want to do that, too."" +You can. If you continue reading and follow the directions set in front of you, three months from now, you'll feel better about yourself, you'll fit in the old clothes still in your closet, you'll sleep better, you'll feel physically healthier, and people will notice. Maybe your sex life will pick up or you'll make other changes that will make you happy. Try, for three months, to do the below. I promise if you work at it, you'll lose weight and feel better about your life. +There are a few rules that must be explained first. +1.Being fit is not easy to start, but as you get used to it, it becomes easy. You need to change your habits and form new ones. But these new ones will become second nature, ensuring a better level of fitness and keeping that last five pounds continually at bay. This is going to be work, people. There's no easy way to do it or we'd all be incredibly attractive and capable of running marathons. +2.Forget the word ""Diet."" Diet is simply the food you eat. Right now, you are on a diet. It may compromise of unhealthy fast foods and cakes and pies and such. ""Diet"" is simply what you eat. On that note, when you eat healthy, that does not mean you're going to be hungry all the time. Eating healthy food is not starving, either. +3.Try. That's it. Just try, keep trying, and don't quit. If you go four days eating healthy and you go nuts on the fifth day, eating everything in sight, that's okay. It happens. You just forgive yourself and continue on doing your best. +Saying that, let's get to some basic ground rules of how to be healthy. Good health and a fit body require two elements: Diet and Exercise. Remember what we said about diet. Don't freak out over that word, it's not a bad word. So you don't panic, we'll start with Exercise. +WHAT EXERCISE ISN'T +•Shitty – Exercise doesn't mean killing yourself. There is a television commercial on right now for yogurt that shows two women passed out on a park bench, aching. They spent four hours in pilates so they could have some cake. You don't need to do that to eat food. Exercise can be fun, EASY, and very rewarding. +Let's discuss the easiest, simplest, best exercise in the world: Walking. Walking is a great exercise and it's what our bodies are designed to do. Walking burns fat, strengthens your heart and lungs, tones muscles, and generally makes you feel good. Walking 1 mile will take less then 20 minutes, burns over 100 calories, and keeps you off the couch and away from the television. It will reduce blood pressure and can help decrease the effects of Type II Diabetes. Walking can be done with your dog (who will love you), a friend, your family, your spouse, or by yourself. It's free. Put on some shoes and go outside and walk a little bit. Your body will thank you. You won't need a fancy gym membership or an expensive piece of equipment that stores dust in your house. All you need are a pair of shoes and some clothes you don't mind sweating in a little bit. Walking is ideal for those of us who are tremendously overweight and those of us who can't seem to get rid of that last five pounds. Walk! +We won't worry about the rest of it, the weights, the pushups, swimming laps, or anything else for right now. We're going to focus on walking, jogging if you can, and start to slowly build some endurance and drop some pounds. Speaking of dropping pounds, a healthy diet is the second, and more important, part of weight loss. +WHAT DIETING ISN'T +•Starving – You'll eat food and plenty of it. Maybe not as much as you do now, but you won't be hungry all the time. +•Disgusting – You can take some fruit, some veggies, and some other ingredients and make a dinner to rival any fast food restaurant. Golden Corral and Burger King can't compete with dinners cooked at home. +•Expensive – Healthy food costs as much or less then processed, manufactured meals. A homemade pizza, with store–bought pizza sauce, crust, cheese, onions and green peppers will cost less to make then buying French Bread Pizza. And it tastes better because you made it. +All food has calories. Calories are a unit of energy. If you use that energy, you burn off calories. If you don't, they get stored as fat. The fat is really fuel, waiting around for you to walk it off. If you get moving, it'll disappear. +Some foods have more calories then others. A twinkie, for example, has many times the number of calories contained in an apple. They're both about the same size, take about the same number of bites to eat, and cost about the same, depending on where you shop. +Yet you may have to walk several miles to burn off a twinkie, while a quick lap around your neighborhood will burn off an apple. The lesson here is it is not the amount of food you eat as much as it is the quality of food. An entire four course dinner, done correctly, can give you pounds of food and have the same calories as two big wedges of cake. +Food is a cornerstone of all societies. Dates are conducted with dinner. Family gatherings, weddings, funerals, movies... pretty much all social events have food available. We're a society of eaters. Hunger is terrible and we need to fix it at the slightest hint of onset. Unfortunately, vending machines don't serve carrots. What you should practice is eating healthier foods. Try lean meats, like chicken, pork, and fish. Eat a lot of fruits and veggies and whole grain breads and pastas. Take your lunch to work and pack it with all sorts of food. It'll save you calories and money. +""I've listened to you blather on about this stuff. Where are you going with it?"" +Good question. This is how you lose weight. A pound of body fat has a value of about 3,500 calories. If you take all the calories you eat in one day and subtract all the calories you burn in one day, you get net calories. We want to have negative net calories every day, if possible. It is not always possible, but the overall trend should have a big negative sign next to it. Weight loss is simple math. Eat 2000 calories, burn more then 2000. +This is what you're going to do! +1.Keep a food journal and write down everything, food or drink, that goes into your mouth. Look at labels or use internet resources to find out how many calories are in the item you're eating. Round up if it's uncertain. Physically write down everything and tally it up at the end of the day. This will help you keep track of what you're eating and how often you're doing it. +2.Go to the library or a bookstore and get a cookbook. Plan five meals for each week, get a shopping list, and buy only those items. Don't buy cookies or ice cream, it's not on the list. Yes, you can eat junk food, but when you're at the supermarket, do not purchase those items. Treats should be bought when you're full, after dinner. +3.Walk, every day if possible. Google.com has a wonderful tool that you can use called a pedometer. Search pedometer and find your home town. Using the tracking tool, you can see distances, elevation changes, calories burned, and other useful facts. Make a two mile route and go for a walk. Depending on how quick you move, it may take 30 minutes or more. But there's no rush. Going fast or slow doesn't affect the calories burned. Distance does. More distance equals more calories, no matter how fast or slow you go. Keep track of the distances and calories burned. And as two miles gets easier, try to go longer. 3 or 4 miles is very impressive. +4.You don't need to add the positives and negatives but you do need to make sure most days you are in the red for calories. Do it often enough and you'll drop five pounds, ten pounds, twenty pounds. +It's math time. Every person has a basal metabolic rate (BMR). This is the number of calories a person burns by functioning. If you lie on a bed all day, your BMR will be around 1800 calories. A normal day of functioning averages 2000 to 2200 calories. If you keep a journal and eat 2200 calories a day, all the walking you do is fat melting off your body. Say you walk 2 miles a day, five times a week. If you walk 2 miles, five times a week and burn about 250 calories per walk, you'll burn 1250 a week. Every three week, you lose a pound of pure fat. +That may not seem like much. But your body will build some muscle. Muscle uses more calories then fat does, so your metabolism and your BMR increase. If you're used to eating a lot of food every day, your BMR may already be much higher then 2000. The weight will start coming off slowly at first but losing the weight and getting stronger will increase the rate at which you burn calories. Maybe you'll start walking twice a day. Maybe you'll pick up jogging or a sport. The opportunities are endless but you have to take the first steps and get outside. +After three months of this, I promise you'll be healthier and in better shape. So, as soon as you finish reading this, go on Google.com, find the pedometer, plot a 2 mile route, and get out there. As soon as you start moving, you'll be happier. +There is so much information available on weight loss. What has been presented barely scratches the surface of knowledge from available resources. Eat healthy, start walking, and a thinner body awaits! +.................................... + _I am always open for comments and suggestions.

I’ve thought about it for years, I am so tired of male bashing, and I so like men. They are such good creatures if you’d only just realize it. This may come as a surprise to some of you women out there, but men are people too, they really are, there are good ones, and not so good ones, and a few who could use some serious remodeling, but all in all, they are just humans with real feelings and real hearts, and a lot of men have really generous spirits, they do, and they don’t deserve being treated like they often are. Really, I wrote it for some of the men in my life, guys I’ve worked with, some may be your husbands even, and guys I know. Good men, not bad men…hardworking, these guys so try, and we so mystify them, and ignore them and abuse them! They just want us to be happy and they just want to be happy too. This isn’t a sex manual or a how to manual it is really about caring about each other…the rest sort of falls into place when we do care and listen, so listen to this stuff, please? So I thought, what the hell, I’ll try my hand at writing this and see where it goes. +Well, in the first 24 hours it was on line, over 10,000 people read it, and some 350 men sent emails to me begging for advice and applauding my efforts and asking me to help more, and even saying, please, oh please let my wife read this! Oh thank you, if she would just realize I just want to be loved and to love her, and I’m sorry I forgot to take out the trash two months ago, I am. Some said, oh hey I’d give it to my wife, but she’ll get angry or she’ll twist it and turn it into something that’s my fault or she’ll be upset and think I’m dissatisfied with her and don’t love her, but I so wish she’d learn this, it’s so exactly right on! Women sent emails, even, saying you’re so right and I do forget and so many women don’t even realize this! Mostly they said thanks and please please do more. +See girls, guys don’t talk! They don’t! They go to work, they sit in front of the TV, they mow the yard, they grumble occasionally, but men literally don’t talk as much as we do, and they have men theories about stuff like women, things like “pick your battles” and don’t mess with PMS and giving in is easier than fighting and they sort of figure they have to put up with how squirrelly we are or we won’t put up with them! They have the muscles but we have the power to make their lives beautiful or not, and if we don’t do our part, they won’t do theirs, it’s as simple as that, they do not respond to negativity, no one does…and there’s a reason there are two, we do compliment each other, and we are meant to go through this life hand in hand. +Men won’t tell you this, actually, it’s almost beyond them to, and they’re scared of us, cause we scream and sob and rant and rave and accuse, which is a girl thing, and they really aren’t sure how to deal with it when we do that? Hey ever seen a bunch of guys shrieking and bawling, no! They don’t even know how, let alone why, so it’s totally unnerving to them when we do that stuff…and then they just sort of huddle in like turtles waiting for the enemy to go away. It’s a guy thing, guys aren’t allowed to whine per the guy handbook, page 37, chapter titled unmanly behavior, and so they don’t. They persevere, or in a worse case scenario, they get a mistress or cheat or some how try to cope with life in a marriage that doesn’t really seem to even need them or care what they need. Guys do that action thing, not words, and they like actions, they like Rambo and Fred Flintstone and they’d really rather you just showed them attention than sat and said, ok, so tell me your true inner feelings here…so hey? Just whip those clothes off and stand there when he comes in and say hi, he will catch on, trust me on this, and if he doesn’t? Well, you better start shopping for attorneys then, cause it’s too far gone. +I’ve read articles in every women’s magazine out there, from the louse reports to the how to tell what he is by the color of his socks, the commitaphobes and the labels that basically, are about every guy is a piece of junk and without a paycheck they’d be outlawed entirely, the can’t live with them and it’s illegal to shoot them articles, the ones about he done me wrong, and he done them all wrong, and the ones that just say all men are just naturally stinkers, and it’s just? It’s so wrong! It is, don’t learn about men from man haters, that’s like learning how to cook from a frat house! They aren’t going to tell you good things, they’re gonna try to get you to hate men like they do! +Well I think it’s about time some one let up on these guys, ladies, I work out there, it’s TOUGH, they put up with incredible pressures to bring home that check for you to spend? And all they ask is to be considered important in their own lives, not the most important, just be a serious consideration. Their wants, their egos, they deserve a little care and consideration, that’s all! They want to matter in your lives, just like we want to matter in theirs…so ladies first has always been the rule, so make them important in their own lives, in yours. What have you got to lose, or? Has he already left? +Men aren’t selfish, they really aren’t, what they are is quiet, introspective and unsure how to explain what they want any more than you are at times. And what they want is to be your man, your idol, your hero, and your friend. Sort of like that before you were married stuff, they want you to like them, and they want to be told they’re cool, and smart, when they are. They want you to be attracted to them, and oh, they all want to know you love them? They hate being yelled at and bitched at even if they do do something stupid, friends don’t nag each other? And what they’d like, if they hand you this, is to get closer to you, to fix the problems and to make your relationship stronger and more rewarding for you both, and I sort of ended up their spokesperson, cause I sort of speak their language. So will you please give him a chance and think about how he must feel when you sound off or ignore him or put him off, or tell him you’re too tired, or snarl at him or wound his pride, would you please? Love is a gift we receive, and it’s a precious gift, and we need to both respect and care for it, because without it the world is a very colorless place. Love needs care and feeding, it needs sunlight and water, and good soil to grow and flourish in health, and all he is trying to say with this, is he isn’t flourishing and he wants to. You’d let the dog in if it scratched at the door wouldn’t you? Well treat the man in your life at least that well. +Well I wanted to get this on line, for the guys, I did…I got so many emails I couldn’t answer them all and most of them are answered in this, they are. I’ll write more, but if a man hands you this and this article, listen to what he’s trying to say, it’s not he’s complaining, it’s he asking, he’s saying help. Help us be better and happier, and help me stay with you. I want to, but I can’t be happy treated worse than the dog, I can’t…and I need you to listen and try and want to make this better.

Generally you can count on the good old Professor to have a nice pussy hungry, bare breasts flashing on the highway kind of radio show, but sometimes he pulls out some incredibly rational and timely shows that cut through all of the crap society wraps around a thing and gets to the core of the issue. +The issue he chose was fidelity in a relationship. Tom preaches that guys should be out there getting as much pussy as possible. We should be banging everything that moves unless it's fat or ugly. ""Never settle for anything,"" he says. But once you've found your true love, you stick with her and be absolutely true to her. +""Tell her the truth,"" he said. If you like watching dirty movies, tell her. If you're addicted to the literotica web page, tell her. And if you don't tell her the truth, he said that you have no business being in the relationship. If you aren't telling your wife or girlfriend everything, if you're keeping little things back, if you don't tell her that sometimes you get up at night and read dirty stories, then you're living a double life and you're a pathetic piece of crap. +Your wife will want to know what you're doing. She'll want to know what you're thinking. She does this because she loves you and wants to understand you. You give her half answers, or brush her off. Her feelings are hurt, and a woman with hurt feelings is a truly dangerous thing. +Maybe she searches around on the computer and finds something – something that you'd rather keep hidden, secret from her. Why do you hide it? If she finds it, she'll be mad, or hurt, or just disappointed. Or maybe it's deeper. You hide it from yourself, wishing that you had more control of yourself. Wishing that you didn't need to have this. +Tom Leykis said that it all has to do with self hate. He said, ""If you do it, you're doing it because you hate yourself."" +The more you do it, the more you hate yourself, and the more you hate yourself, the more you want to do it. Cheating and lying is similar to a drug. You take it because it makes you feel really good for a brief moment, and then when you crash, you want that brief moment back even more strongly. +And maybe your wife doesn't provide that. Maybe she did once, but it's been a long time since she really trusted you with her feelings. She's closed herself off from you because the pain of your betrayal was too much to bear so she closed off the love she felt for you into a tight little walled off chamber and swallowed the key. +When you aren't absolutely truthful with your wife or girlfriend, your relationship is doomed. You'll live a double life, keeping secrets and hiding and sneaking and never being happy, and she, being a woman, will see right through you and either leave you physically or leave you mentally. +Your choice is to either tell her everything, or stop doing the things you feel you can't tell her about. +And where does this leave me? +I read stories on Literotica. I've written some too. I download dirty movies sometimes and watch guys with cocks the size of my arm plow into tight 18 year old pussies. I've sat in the dark, with my pants open, reading a story or watching a fuck scene while I squirted cum onto the floor while my wife slept in the other room. +Do I tell her, ""Honey, I'm going to go watch Briana Banks get nailed."" No. Do I tell her, ""Honey, I'm going to go read a story about a kid that fucks his sister."" No. Do I tell her, ""Honey, I'm going into the other room, and I'm going to masturbate for a while."" Nope. +What a pathetic wretch I am. +Tom Leykis is right. Leading a double life doesn't make me happy. +The fleeting happiness that comes from an orgasm is happiness that pales to the happiness that comes from having a healthy self respect and a happy wife." +616,A Libertine at Large,Homme_Ordinaire,How To,2021-07-03,2021-07-28,2022-01-04 08:25:12,3,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-libertine-at-large-pt-01,"1.

Shop work... Education... Health... It's always going on. +I even have it on good authority, than in some female prisons, the longstanding female warders decide who is going to have first pick of the new staff: even if the girl is straight. +And the one constant in all this work based sex is authority. Those in control take advantage of those beneath them. +You may think the boss fucking his secretary is a cliché, but it becomes a cliché because it has happened so often. Either to keep her job, get a raise, or maybe because she really gets off on the power exchange. In fact, that last one is often the main reason. +Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac, and is a guaranteed knicker dropper. +How do I know? +Well... +I'm the type of man who people look to for leadership, for guidance and clear eyed vision. The one who makes the decisions, and that spills over from work and into any 'private' life. +At one stage I worked in shops, not really having a handle on what I wanted to do for a career. Anyone who works in shops knows that the vast majority of the workers tend to be female. So, for a bright energetic guy, that was very fertile ground to hoe... +Most of the girls were not employed based on any outstanding academic qualifications. To be honest many of them were quite stupid and gullible. Shop work was about the best they could hope for. +But oh my, they loved the attention of older males, especially the boss. +Being the boss has many advantages. +A good manager always employed the best looking ones, eye candy. Sex sells. I knew a pub landlord who confessed he'd rather run his pub short staffed for a little while than employ a barmaid that was less than good looking. He knew that totty pulled punters into his pub. I knew a pub landlady that said the same thing, she wanted young attractive girls serving in her bar. Keep the customer satisfied +Let's have a look at an amalgamated example of how that works out. +Let's call her Kathy. A doe eyed blonde heading for 19. Good tits, a little over 5ft and could probably do with losing a few pounds. +How they dress for a job interview tells you a lot. Casual, and you can forget her. If she has paid some attention to her appearance, it's more promising. A skirt is essential, has she worn heels? Is her makeup sparing and carefully applied, or is there so much you can tell she has problems with her self- worth? +Kathy looked like she had some skin problems, so her makeup was a bit layered. Her eyeliner was a bit more suited to a nightclub than a work environment, but I put that down to her nervous need to look her best. +Her CV was thread bare. A number of nothing jobs that she had never lasted very long in. +I was my usual composed self in the in the interview, feigning indifference, making it seem she was far from ideal for the 'position'. I found flaws in that CV and I worked on those. Pressing on it ... making it seem she was walking out without having got the job. She looked flustered... a tell-tale sign was the constant tugging on the hem of her skirt, she wished she had worn a slightly longer one, especially when the chair I had offered to her was one that she sank back into. Deliberately of course. +All jobs have a probationary period, but I emphasised that she was starting the job on a trial basis, where she would need to show she could fit in. I left the length of that trial totally open ended. +Standing up, I held out my hand... wishing her the best of luck... see you on Monday... taking that hand ... and as I held that small hand in mine, I looked deep into her eyes... +I towered over her by a good 6-8 inches, even though she was in heels... asserting my authority from the start. Holding that hand for a little longer than is normally acceptable. +That blush was definitely promising. +She knew deep inside what her true worth was. Girls learn very early on that how they look, how they act will have more influence in her life than her education will. It's easier for them as well, they respond with their most basic instinct and comply. They are looking for a man to lead. +You'll soon find you are pushing at an open door. +Now to set her up. +On her first day make sure you criticise her for something, probably for her appearance (even if she looks good), for timekeeping (late back from her break), for being slow (it is her first day), but make it seem that you are more disappointed than upset. You are sure she can improve. +She'll be even more nervous on her second day, so this time compliment her. Find something to boost her ego. You'll soon see her brighten, and she will be so thankful... You have taken the time to notice and help her. +Be tactile. Touch her arm, her hand. Be reassuring. Remind her that her job is in its trial period. Mention that a few times. +Keep her off balance, be complimentary, and then scold her. +One day, tell her to come to your office when it's time for her to leave for the day. Be sitting when she enters, don't let her take a chair. Be firm. Her work so far is not quite up to scratch. But you are sure that if she applies herself just a little bit more... she can succeed. +When you give her leave to go home... stand up... Put both hands on her shoulders... look down into her face as you tell her that you have faith in her. She can't help but crane her neck and look up into your eyes. She is nervous, watch her worry that bottom lip. +As she turns to leave, slide a hand over her backside, give it a squeeze. Tell her what a good girl she is. +Her reaction is priceless... it's a giggle. +Almost time for the next couple of steps. +The next day, ignore her, ignore her for a couple of days. When she thinks you have forgotten about her, give that bum a good squeeze... or even a good slap. +Tell her how good she looks, stroke a cheek, steal a kiss... Oh... She may even pull away... That first time... But you soon find you can do almost anything with her. +There's usually a quiet place in the store that you can inveigle her to. Get a hand under that shop overall and skirt, slide her knickers to one side and easily slide a finger or two into her wetness. She can't pretend she is not turned on, she is soaking. +Finger fuck that teen twat till she cums a couple of times, then she knows to get on her knees and provide head. +She's probably been sucking cock for a few years already, because she certainly knows how to handle that dick. Lots of tongue, lots of eye contact, lips tight around your shaft. Then you find that, the embryonic sub-slut she is, even responds to being facefucked. Push it deep into her throat, hear her gag. Hold her head tight and feel her thrash around... Till you spew your cum down her throat. Pat her on the head, tell her what a good girl she is. They love that. +Then you need to give the teenage temptress a few minutes in the ladies to compose herself, wipe the drool from her face. Then she needs to get back onto the shop floor and do what we are paying her for. +Each time you walk past her for the rest of the day, she will blush crimson. +From now on, it gets easier and easier to take her to one side and have your way with her. +She's so thankful and willing. +She's no virgin, but not many guys have been inside her. She is a little reluctant at first, but a firm approach and her own needs combine to get her legs open. She does mumble something about a condom, but birth control is up to her. You are going in bare. +An older man takes her to a whole new level. An older Dominant male demands more from her than any or her boyfriend's ever have. +You casually mention your liking for stockings, and the next day she arrives for work panting to show she is wearing hold up stockings. +Getting her to stay behind after the shop has closed for the day is easy. She's got nothing to rush home for. She's the daughter of a single mother, living in a tiny and dank dreary flat. +She's happy to strip to stockings and heels, bend over your desk, and take it deep. +Most of them, you can get to accept anal. It's another step on her voyage of discovery. +Spanking, some nipple torture, cum on her face. She laps it all up. +She is so pathetically thankful. I'm sure in her own head she is thinking hearts and flowers, walking down the aisle, a life of bliss and 2.3 kids. +No. +No. +No. +She is a fucktart learning what her twat is for. You are not wining and dining her, showing her off to your friends or going on such meaningless things as 'dates'. +Time to change things up. +Next time you get her to stay behind, the deputy manager just 'accidentally' shows up. +After her initial shock, honestly, it's ridiculous how easy it is to get her to just accept, and he is appreciative to get between her thighs and you can slope off home. +After that, spit roast and DP are on the menu whenever you decide that's what you want. +She's knocked off balance, maybe the perfect home life isn't in her future, and instead she has become quite the sexual performer. +But you don't care, you are already onto the next one.

On the surface this seems like a simple question but we are dealing with a woman so it gets complicated. We are complicated creatures. +In today's society some of the old moors have been toned down, but they still exist. Girls are brought up to think that having casual sex is something that only sluts or tramps do. This is not all girls but probably a majority. Secondly they are taught to be lady like and ladies don't have casual sex. These influences can dampen a girl's sexual desires because of the negativity attached to it. I know for me it took awhile before I felt comfortable with my sexual desires. I did what I wanted but felt like a bad girl for doing it. So the first obstacle that has to be overcome is to help her change her attitude toward sexual activities. +For me I was liberated from those guilt feelings when I started going to swingers clubs and realized how many other women had the same desires I did. I wasn't alone, but part of a large group. So my suggestion would be to go slowly and help her feel comfortable having sexual desires that are outside her normal comfort zone. Watch porn together and when she feels comfortable watching suggest she fantasize about that being her. Make sure she knows you don't think less of her for doing so. Letting her know these thoughts and fantasies excite you may also help. +In my experience there are very few women that feel truly comfortable with their bodies. We all want certain parts to look better. Be sincere and let her know how good you think she looks. She will be able to tell if you are not sincere. Try and make her feel like a sexual goddess or at least special in your eyes. +Probably the most important part of any relationship is HONEST communication. This is even more important in an open type relationship, because there are perceived threats in an open relationship. Make sure your partner knows they are very important to you, that you love them. In your open, honest communication set ground rules that you can both live with. You can always change these as you move forward. Whatever you do don't break the rules you established. It can create a very bad situation. Assure one another that swinging is purely sexual recreation, not a search for a better partner. Women are jealous by nature so be aware and don't give her reason to get jealous. +If you follow these suggestions you just might succeed in convincing her to give it a try. Now comes the part you didn't expect. A very large contingent of men are insecure deep down on the primal level. You need to face this before you go into this. I have seen several instances where couples have gone to swing clubs and the woman hooks up with a guy and the husband sees her enjoying the physical attention and his insecurity erupts and he causes a scene. The whole purpose of getting into this lifestyle was for both of you to increase your sexual pleasure. So if she is having a good time, be happy for her. +You must also remember in all swinging situations both parties have to agree to play together. There may be times when you set your sights on a certain woman and she may not want to play. This really is not a rejection but her choice not to play at this time. On another night she may have said yes. By nature men are more sexually oriented than women. They want all the women they can have. Women on the other hand are content with fewer satisfying encounters, for the most part. There are women like me that like quantity but we are the minority. So don't get discouraged or angry when your dance card is not as full as you would like it and your partner is off having a good time. In the end, if you are patient and understanding the cards will equal out. Another factor is that most swing clubs allow singles and single guys always out number single girls. This means women have a larger field to pick from. So we have more to choose from and most are not looking for quantity so your chances of scoring are less than your partner's. +After any kind of swinging experience, make sure that both of you spend some quality time with each other and reaffirm your love and commitment to each other. All too often we get caught up in our daily schedules with work and other events and we forget to take the time and let our partners know how important they are to us. Open relationships can be very pleasurable but only if the couples involved spend the time and show the commitment that is required to keep the relationship strong and happy. All good relationships are based on mutual trust and in an open relationship this goes double. +I hope these suggestions are helpful. Before I met my husband I made a lot of mistakes and fell prey to others that were untrustworthy and insecure and things ended poorly. So these suggestions are the product of my experiences.

I love it. Tying at the feet is not always necessary, but the hands, absolutely. Even though a pair of cuffs in the middle do have their place, I'm a firm believer in hands at the corners. Some sort of strapping under the bed, whatever... we just want his arms out. Face up, of course. +You will need: +\-- a bed +\-- some kind of restraint system +\-- your favorite lubricant (lots) +\-- a cock ring (a must) +\-- a feather or some silk +\-- bonus: big tits +\-- and minty gum can be nice. +No need for a blindfold... believe me, his eyes are your friend. You might also keep a glass of water--gotta keep those spit and sweat glands pumping. Ice water if you're a bitch. And a word on gagging... it's up to you! But if you're gonna gag, gag properly (ie. rubber is better than your thong). Let's get started! +Get your man on your bed (if there's a clock in the room, hide it). Get him on his back and give him a kiss. A pillow under his head is good. And he's naked, right? Completely naked? You don't have to be, but don't wear a suit. Adjust the wrist restraints so you can fit one finger between the material and his skin. You want barely any wiggle room in his arms. And his legs, that's up to you. Being bound on the bed and all accessible is going to make him squirm whether his legs are forced straight or not. I say leave em. +Tease and denial is the name of the game here. Or ""edging"" if you like. And edging it is. We'll be taking him riiiight to the edge of an orgasm, more than a few times. You know you're doing well if you lose count. I hope your blowjob skills are up to date, 'cause tongue is king here. Not to say it's your only asset (it's not)... but subjecting him to excruciating pussytorture can come a bit later. In case it's not clear already, this guide is written from a woman's perspective, so if you're not one some parts of it may not be applicable. +So! Your slave is bound and the fun can begin. What's first? Well, ""what's first"" is the part that I don't really know about. I hope the setting is nice, the light not too bright...the room not too cold. I like to get on top for a moment after the second wrist restraint is on, give him a hickey, then slither down to his knees. Scratch his stomach and sides on the way down (good nails are good to have...nothing like a french manicure at your balls). Yeah, scratch his balls. Keep your wrists up for this... and produce your bottle of oil. Hope you taste tested it first. +Mmmm, oil. Whatever it is you use, it'll warm up in your hand and be a little more liquidy. We don't need to let it yet, though. By now it's time to take something off. I let my g string dig into my waist a little longer, but you ain't got a smooth stomach for nothing. So get slippery... it's easy to start with your arms, and then your chest and beyond. Show him how slippery. It'll make little suction noises when you dump it on your hands and on to his body. Cover everything in front of you, down to his knees, up to his nipples, only enough on his cock to get it shiny. Don't be afraid to get your underwear wet. When you're both coated, get right on top of him again. You can probably feel gravity pulling you towards his feet. The good thing about having his legs unrestrained is you can position your breasts nicely between his thighs on the down stroke, then sliiide back up to his face and do it again. Maybe lick his eyeballs. +Sit on his stomach now, on your knees again (a regular position, you'll find), him facing your ass. Pour or squirt some lube into your palm and hold it for, oh, ten seconds. Then cup your hand with it up under his balls, and drag the liquid up to his belly button. Ooh, all slippery, all of a sudden. Grasp his cock below the head and slide your hand back down again, and massage his balls some more (it's amazing if they're shaven). Put your thumb and forefinger in an ok position around the base of his cock, above the balls, and squeeze. Draw your hand up a little and see that cock head bulge... every nerve ending standing at attention. You can release him now because it's time for the cock ring. I prefer the simple rubber O ring that leaves his balls free, and recommend it. Slide it on, right to the base. Maybe give him a minute to cool down first if you have to. +Now it's time for part one of I don't know how many: the slow, grueling handjob. It's going to be very tasty indeed. I have a big smile on my face, perched on his knees, looking into his eyes and licking my teeth. What a view he has: my face, my hair, tits, neck, bare shoulders, and his big, helpless cock wrapped in my slick fingers. A nice little exclamation point. With the cock ring on properly, his cock is... hard. Don't forget it. The cock ring is a must-have for 90% of the time. The cock ring's doing some work for you in keeping his penis bigger, harder, more sensitive and for longer. It also prolongs cumming, which is nice. Would you like to prolong cumming? +Anyway, back to the matter at hand. I'd say for now stay at his knees. Have one hand by his stomach and the other around his dick. Tickle, rub, caress and massage the head. Your fingertips have a little texture and it's good for this. Make a fist above the head and sliiiide the cock through your liberally lubricated hand, and then the next above it. Keep one hand working his balls while the other is up and down the shaft, getting just high enough to touch the head. But this isn't really a handjob guide... it's up to you to know how to get him real worked up in your hands, just shy of cumming. And I mean real shy. Don't take any chances if he's looking ready bust a nut 'cause game's over if he does, unless you're into a little POT. +After the third or fourth almost-orgasm, just stop. Release his cock (I didn't say take the ring off) and take a break. Lie down next to him, ask him how he's doing. Probably a mess already. If he's been talking a lot and annoying you feel free to gag him. Ball gags are best. You can also shut him up with some tongue and a little gravity-biased spit swapping. Reach down and stroke his cock. I say gag him. If he doesn't he's never getting out. Hehe, look at those eyes. +Get back on top of him, looking away. Sit on his chest... or his neck. Don't worry, he can breathe. Get out your oil. He's likely to groan at the click of the bottle closing. That's right, slow grueling handjob part two. Slap some lube on his cock and get busy again. It should take less than five minutes to get him to orgasm, so go for four and a half. Give it a couple minute cool down period each time, literally if there's a pot of water for hot hands... +Take off his gag for a minute. Don't worry, you'll get it back on. Lie on top of his body and tell him you're going to suck his cock. See the slightly pained expression. Tell him you're going to eat him alive. I like to tell him to kiss me if he wants to cum, and have him suck my lips off. Save your saliva, put the gag back and reverse yourself. Apply some fresh grease and get into the 69 position. Depending on how tall you both are your thighs may be right past his face, but likely not (unless on purpose). Licky licky, sucky sucky. +Ooh, the blowjob, about the most vindictive instrument of torture at your disposal. Pleasure-torture, of course, but torturous none the less. Have your hands intertwined around his balls and the base of his cock, and point the thing at your lips. Tell him it's just inches away. He can feel your hands, your breath and your tits on his stomach, but is looking at your butt. Told you a blindfold wasn't necessary. That said, presentation isn't as important now either. +Press his cock against his stomach and give his balls a lick. In fact, give his balls the whole hog all over again. Lap away like a dog on peanut butter. Tongue, tongue, tongue. Not the best from this angle though, so back to the shaft. Do a sloppy harmonica kiss up its length and back down the other side. Do it again... then let the tip of your tongue wander along the base of the head, all around... you'll probably have been introduced to precum by now. Precum is the bomb. In fact, precum is a reward, and you want more of it. And god knows his dick wants more of your saliva. Yes, saliva, the wonderful renewable fluid of many useful and interesting applications. Put it on his dick. Lots of it. Big, long, flat licks are good for applying the stuff. So is outright drooling. It's also recyclable... anyway, coat it. +Purse your lips in the Marilyn Monroe ""prune"" shape and plant them on the head. Lower your own head, slowly, keeping them pressed, sliding your lips over the head so he breaks through your kiss. I like to call this move ""crowing"" the dick. Mmm, cocksucking. In this context of extremely erotic tease and denial, this is where the head of his cock gets a good workout. Get both hands around the shaft and your mouth on the head for the full engulfing effect, or take him to your tonsils while he's gasping. He should be gasping. He's definitely feeling the restraints, for he really wants his hands on your ass. Or your head, or something, anything. Helpless as a little duckling. So employ to whatever effect you choose your lips, tongue, teeth, the cavity at the back of your mouth...the roof of your mouth, cheeks, did I say lips? Teeth are special. The mouth's real power, there to tease and delight, nibble and horrify, perhaps making a gentle introduction as his cock glides past your cool, wet lips for the umpteenth time. His cock, still, sealed inside the tight, wet and very hot prison of your mouth, with your tongue the interrogator and no escape in sight. I'm sure it's ecstasy, and ecstasy should last. For a real treat, squirt some (edible) lube in your mouth, let it sit for a moment, and suck him in. Loudly. Unseal your lips to allow some of the goo to dribble out. They call cumswapping snowballing because of the accumulation... keep slurping. No need for lip gloss with this kind of action. +Instead of popping him out of your mouth when he's about to cum again, if you think he can handle it just keep him there, suspended in your mouth (oxygen free). In the 69 position your mouth and throat are positioned excellently for sucking cock. Deepthroat him if you can. You want him to really feel and experience the depth and unrelenting cocksucking power of your body. Give him a real tour of the orgasm factory, so to speak. With the cock ring, one merely needs a hand and the lightest touch at the base of his cock in order to point it about. You are his queen tonight, so continue to make the most of it. Give him the most lascivious tongue lashing of his life. Snake it up, down and around the shaft, his belly buton, his thighs (no substitute for tits though), and all over the head. Pointed tongue, flat tongue, slurpy dripping loving tongue... he can feel your every tastebud. Stop intermittently of course. One thing you'll have to get used to is the sound of breathless disappointment. +I've described so far you being flat on his stomach, like a half of 69. If you are, after a good bit of luxury cocksucking, flip around, get your ass in the air, and...continue it. If you thought there was some spit content before, well. Give him a real working over all over again. Noticed you haven't used any artificial lubricant in a while? Yeah. Look into his eyes, stick your tongue out all the way, and give him a big snail trail from under his balls to the tip of his cock. You probably know how to swish your tongue around with your mouth closed to stimulate more production. Have him watch you do this. Then, leave his cock flat on his stomach, lean over and, slowly, let a big fat string drip down past your lips and all over his cock and balls. Drool it. You'll probably have to break it off at your chin, afterwards. Rub it in (to his dick, I mean), run your tongue up to the head again, hold it vertical, and do your best to make him squeal. What, you don't want your dick sucked? +You should be at least an hour in. That cock's been wet for a while. It's had quite a bit of tongue. If you're good at blowjobs, he'll have done some work. And having been licked all over, he ain't nothing but cock now. Reapply some oil and remind him. He's probably moaning, panting, and unsure. Give his balls a scratch. The gag in his mouth will have been suppressing his complaints nicely, to say nothing of the feeling of helplessness it contributes. If this is his first time he'll have never wanted to cum so badly in his life. Slow, drawn out, deliberate and agonizing tease and denial is a kind of extreme erotic frustration that in the process of inducing is, well, quite delicious. You can give your mouth a break now. Sit back at his knees, facing him, and produce your feather and/or strip of silk. If you manage both, all the better! Wiggle the point of the feather under and around his balls, maliciously target the head, and run it up to his neck. Aw, it's just a little feather. Drape your piece of fabric on his dick and trace it over and around, or hold it at length and have it dance around his balls. +Set them aside. Did you bring some condoms? I hope so. Oil him up again and slip one on. Dribble a little oil on top, and put another one on! And one or two more, depending on their thickness (you probably don't need to lube up the last one). Hoo boy. You're going to fuck him like this. He'll feel the heat but not your pussy. So with a glint in your eye, climb on. Take him right to the hilt...I don't want to know the noises he's making. Grind away, but keep the strokes to a minimum. Is it unbearable? Of course not. So let's turn the torture up to 11. After you've had enough of this, take the condoms off, all at once, release his cock, and have your pussy sit at the base of his shaft. Tell him this is gonna suck. Put your hands down on the bed beside him, and sliiiiide your pussy up the length of the shaft, till your clit is just past the head. Slide back down. Groaning, muffled moaning and heavy breathing are all to be expected. +Be agonizing. Wet pussy sliding on a cock in this state is a deadly, twisted move. You can be a little bit sadistic. Make his cock shine. I needn't point out it's the more sensitive underside of his cock you're working with. So go extra slowly and ignore the whimpering. After a few minutes of this, get off, stand his cock up and plunge the whole thing deep into your pussy. Not too fast though. If you think he can keep still and you aren't reverse cowgirl, lean forward and kiss his neck. Lick some of the sweat off your victim's face. Then lean back, keeping his dick confined the whole time. Then crawl up and bury his face in your ass, and purr while he struggles, his cock twitching, getting nothing but air. +What now? You want some cum soon? That can be obliged, if he isn't ready for another slow, grueling handjob or getting sucked again. But he probably is... and how he gets off is, of course, up to you. Should he orgasm deep in your pussy? I say no. Having him cum all over somewhere visible is more rewarding. You could take the gag off now too, but he might bite you. Get your tongue at the ready, and prepare for an XL spoonful of hot, sticky cum. +You know how to get him there... when he's finally ready. I recommend the sloppy cum in mouth finish. Work him. This should be at least the 15th time he approaches a volcanic cum pop. So either get a hand on there and tongue him to the first squirt, or jerk him with Oily Hand. A hand around his balls either way. Right when he starts ejaculating, pop that bulging cock head in your mouth and get on the receiving end. Smile while it oozes past your lips and down to his balls, like so much spit before it. Cum play is where it's at. I'd say make sure to get all the cum out, for a giggle during cleanup." +620,The Lost Art of Cocksucking,IrresistibleBeauty,How To,2007-11-06,2007-11-06,2022-01-04 08:40:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-lost-art-of-cocksucking,Tips for pleasuring your man.,"['Blowjob How-To', 'Cocksucking', 'Fellatio', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Oral Sex How-To', 'Prostitution', 'Sex Advice']",4.4,"Even those who know me well aren't particularly fond of my vocabulary. I have a penchant for using the most blunt and often offensive word to describe terms concerning my profession. Don't get me wrong, I try to come across as eloquent and even sensual when I talk, especially when I am on a ""date"" and trying to be as smart and seductive as I can be. But when I am around those closest to me, I seem to rile them up with the almost cold bluntness in which I wield my verbiage. For example, anyone who knows me knows I refer to myself as a prostitute or whore--I don't fool around with words like callgirl and escort or something more euphemistic like lady of the evening. Maybe as an introduction, but once you get to know me, I drop the pretenses and call it bluntly. +So if the title of this article makes you gasp, you now know why. I use the word cocksucking because it is what it is. It is not a blowjob; I am not blowing on it. It is not fellatio or giving head. I am sucking on a cock, and I have little shame in using such jargon. Besides, the very word, cocksucking, is an aggressive word, it sounds more sinister, more forceful. There is no weight to the other words. +Cocksucking is a lost art, and in an age where sex is deemed as something impersonal, pervasive, and even anonymous at times, oral sex seems to get lost in the shuffle. People are impatient, they want instant gratification, and that seems to most clearly show itself within sex, where the goal seems to stick it in and cum, get yourself off, and move on. It's a grand game, with a clandestine scoreboard. Many people define themselves by the QUANTITY of their lovemaking, how many partners, and how many times a week. What they fail to realize is that you can have all the sex you want, but it's almost all masturbation--just getting off, which is something you can do all by yourself --if there isn't some special element, something deeply sensual and satisfying, something transcendent. Otherwise they're all just aimless fucks, one no more special than the other. +As such, it is seemingly easier these days for a girl to just spread her legs and let her man do his business than to really give yourself to him. Hell, there are times I've read magazines during sex because I wasn't into my ""date"" and he just wanted to fuck, so he paid $1500 to have me on all fours while he did his business and I moaned for his validation while reading Us Magazine. As I said, sex has become largely impersonal, and the best way to make it more intimate, in my opinion, is to rediscover the art of sucking cock, to do so in a way that makes your man lose his ego, to shut up and moan in pretty much the same way a woman moans during missionary sex, to make him shake and convulse, to make him cum in a scream. Something a little more personal, a little more satisfying, something that will make him shiver to his very soul. +The first thing I would tell you is, don't ever do it unless you are into your man and you want to pleasure him deeply. It is an acquired taste, something you not only get used to, but you start to enjoy once you get good at it. The feel of a thick veined cock in your mouth can be one of the sluttiest and hottest feelings you can have, provided you have yourself in the proper frame of mind. Don't do it otherwise, you'll end up hating the experience, and he'll end up resenting you for it. Unless you can be enthusiastic about it, don't bother. +If you've talked yourself into it and you want to pleasure him with your mouth, you need to remember that your entire mouth is a sex organ. Not just the lips, although it is important to tighten your lips around his cock and bob your head. Within your mouth you have a tongue, which if you learn how to use it, it goes nonstop. Your teeth can bring him pleasure, especially if you bite down ever so slightly on his head. Your cheeks should be included, and though a guy might think it hot to see his cock pushed against the inner wall of your cheek, learn to suck them in hard and tight as you suck, giving his cock more to feel, almost like a vagina. And you have a throat, and your throat doesn't end at the back. Learn to position yourself so your mouth and esophagus line up, and you can deep throat just like a porn star. Even your gag reflex, if you learn to control it a little and not fear it, can be used for pleasure. As you can see, there is much involved in sucking cock than just putting his thing in your mouth. It takes knowing what you have to use and making it work for you. +If you're just learning, though, don't be afraid to use your hand. If done right, your hand can be an extension of your mouth. Spit a little on his cock to lubricate it, then tighten your fingers around it and jack him off as you pleasure the head and first two or three inches of his cock with your mouth and all therein. Don't squeeze too tight; this should be a gliding motion up and down it, from your lips to his pelvis. Men always ask to play with their balls during this, and you should let your hand go wherever you want to touch. But the key idea is pleasure, and your hand, if done right, can be an excellent extension of your mouth. +Let your man touch you when you perform on him. This should be a giving experience for both of you, let him caress your face and push your hair from your eyes. I love feeling his hands on my back, slowly massaging me as I pleasure him. If you are performing in an impersonal and business-like manner, perhaps it's not the best thing. A caveat, though, if your man is becoming aggressive, and you are not comfortable, stop what you are doing, do not get yourself hurt, inside or out, just because he is becoming an asshole. +I prefer to have my man sitting, as if he were a king coming home to his slutty little queen. For most of my ""dates"", it usually ends up with him standing and me on my knees. There's nothing wrong with it, but with almost everyone out there, a large part of sex is ego, imposing one's self over another, giving one the presence of superiority and the other inferior to that. Sucking a guy's cock when he is standing inherently gives him that superiority. There are ways you can knock him down a peg if this happens--one thing I do is claw at his ass cheeks, or finger his asshole. The anus for a guy is that magic spot where he either backs up real fast or loses his mind completely and gives in to whatever you had in mind, but either way, he is vulnerable for a moment, and guy's hate being vulnerable, especially with a girl. That is why I prefer to make my man comfortable, have him sit or lie down--it takes away some of the ego. +One thing I always do to make my man cum super hard and fast is look him deep into the eyes. This has nothing to do with technique or cocksucking ability, but it has to do, again with the demolition of the male ego. It's all body language. If you close your eyes, even if it's not the case, you appear to be more into his cock than into him, and that will cast you as a cock-hungry slut. If he closes his eyes, he's lost in the feeling instead of with you, perhaps imagining the same feeling being done with some cheerleader he had a crush on in high school. But the maintenance of eye contact makes the cocksucking something else. There is something more involved than just a mouth and a cock. There are two souls involved, not just their bodies. By looking at him, you can see not just if you are giving him pleasure, but if it means something more to him than just the act. And there is nothing sexier in the world than a woman who will look her man in the eye when she is pleasuring him or is being pleasured by him. I was blessed with very dark eyes, and that seems to mean something dark and almost evil, as if I were born to suck cock. And I always use them to my fullest advantage, opening them up wide and adoringly as I suck it, maybe rolling them back when I deep throat. Your man will never say I Love You more times in rapid succession than when you are looking him in the eye and driving him into a helpless orgasmic frenzy with your mouth. +Soft moans on the cock do a couple of things. For one, the vibrations add to the sensation, and he will definitely feel them shoot up his cock into his lower torso. For another--and this is important for a guy--it makes him think you are enjoying the act and even getting off on it. It makes him feel validated, like a real man, when his woman moans for him. Even if it's fake, it is still worth the trouble to moan on it. +Only if you trust the man should you let him fuck your mouth. Again, this goes back to power roles, so do so only if you're comfortable. I say this because many men like to put their hands on the back of my head and start thrusting their cocks in and out of my mouth. Even I find that sexy as hell, but more times than naught, it turns into a power play, and he'll start talking trash about you being a little slut. If that happens, he might use his cock like a knife, stabbing your mouth and throat instead of finding pleasure in them. I say this all the time, not just in this article but elsewhere, but you don't have to give up control in order to be sexy. You don't have to feel vulnerable or slutty if you don't want to. And don't ever let a man talk shit to you if it makes you feel ashamed, ever. +However he cums is up to you. Never give up that decision to him. If you feel strongly about it, don't give in and swallow if you don't want to. For me, I prefer to toss my head back and let him cum all over my neck and chest and breasts, but that is just me. I have fetishes, and one big fetish I have includes getting my breasts always involved. I love feeling his cum on my tits, smearing it all over them with my hands, making them glisten and sticky. That is what I prefer. On a ""date"" I generally let my partner dictate, but for $1500 a night, I can afford it. In a more intimate setting, it is up to the woman, not the man, in what manner he cums. You've done all the work; the least he can do is just enjoy it and not bark out orders. +Pay attention, though, to what he does. Keeping your eyes open is not only hot as hell as I've already said, but it keeps you aware. And if you look up and see your man huffing and puffing and moaning, and you feel the cum rise in his cock as you hold it in your throat, you can keep your control. You can pull it out and stroke him to get him off if you don't want to feel his cum in your mouth at all. You can grind your mouth down further on his cock and let him cum down your esophagus. Guys like this, and I don't know why because I'm not a fan of it, but they like to jack themselves off at the end and aim the cum into your mouth. I don't find anything sensual at that at all. If it's up to me, aim for my chest, something that gives me pleasure as well. Always, though, pay attention to what he is doing; he will give you signs of things to come even if he is incapable of speech at that moment. +Some girls like to put something in their mouths, like vodka or ice, to enhance the pleasure. If I do anything like that, it is ice, because ice is clean, it becomes water fast, and it can be swallowed easily. It also turns from 32 degrees to 98.6 rather fast, so you don't have much time to employ a mouthful of ice shavings. But it does work, in much the same way as if your man runs an ice cube down your neck, between your breasts, down your stomach, and into your pussy on a really hot and steamy evening, and he will be gasping from the very first moment. Don't do any food products, like whipped cream or chocolate sauce, you will most likely gag on it, or it will run out all over your chin and neck. If he's weird, he will think it hot that his cock is a dark brown and you have it all over yourself, but it just doesn't work for me. +Let your man dictate whether or not you kiss him after sucking his cock. Most will, but the more self-absorbed won't. Cocksucking is not seen as a hygienic thing to do. As soon as you can, though, retire yourself to the sink and rinse your mouth out, you never know what is intermingled with his sperm. Brush your teeth, and resume to his side for whatever else the night entails with a clean and refreshing breath. +I hope this helps in your pursuit of giving your man the ultimate blowjob, head, oral sex, whatever you want to call it. I call it cocksucking, and if I do say so myself, I think I am the best you'll ever meet. Maybe there is a harem girl in Arabia somewhere who is better, or a porn star that can make seven figures a year. I made six figures last year, much of it due to twenty years of developing my cocksucking abilities. My hope, though, is that the lost art of cocksucking doesn't die with me, and guys, if I can help your girlfriend to lighten up and give you the best head of your life, then this met its purpose. +Love Always, Olivia.

It's all about natural consequences. This is what it says on their website: + _Children learn the best lessons when they're given a task and allowed to make their own choices (and fail) when the cost of failure is still small. Children's failures must be coupled with love and empathy from their parents._ +I like this particular approach because I'm never the bad guy. I don't spank, I don't impose many parent-initiated consequences that cause resentment. The kids learn personal responsibility and independence. And I get to be empathetic instead of mad. It works out pretty well. +And it even works with husbands. +I adore Mr. Kitt - I think he's the cat's meow. He's brilliant, insightful, kind, generous... I am a very blessed woman, and I know it. :) But he is, of course, human... and not without his faults. One of them is organization and resource management. The good news is, I'm fantastic at those things. I can balance a budget on the tip of one finger. I'm telling you, I'd give Hillary a run for her money! +But that also means Mr. Kitt has, over the years, come to depend on me to do those things. Which, after a while, becomes tedious. And frankly, I think a forty year old man should be able to keep track of a check register, don't you? So, two years ago, I gave up the finances. I handed them over and feigned frustration. I can't do this anymore, I said. You handle it. +Then, I applied love and logic. Because frankly, Mr. Kitt's parents never did. They are very generous with their money - to a fault. All Mr. Kitt has to do is hold out his hand, and things are put into it. And I don't mean $20 here or there. I mean things like cars, college educations. You name it. Well, he names it - they provide it. Which gave Mr. Kitt a sense that the world will always provide, money is always available, an unlimited resource. Consequently, he burns money like George W. Bush burns fossil fuels. +All of this I knew when I handed over the finances. I understood I'd have some issues to deal with. The major difference between love and logic with a child and love and logic with an adult is the consequences. They are much bigger when you're dealing with an adult. Which is why it makes sense to teach this sort of thing to children long before they have major consequences to face. But sometimes adults get to this point, and they haven't learned this lesson in some areas of their lives. (I know I'm lacking in a few myself...) You see this issue a lot with addicts, and it's part of where the ""tough love"" idea came from. You stop enabling someone, and then you let them pay the consequences. +Of course, if you live with that someone, you end up paying them, too. +I knew what I was in for - things like bounced check fees, late mortgage payments, bad credit. But if I ended up with a husband who understood the value of money and could balance a checkbook, to me, it was worth it. +So I said. +So I kept saying. +Hundreds of dollars in fees later... (gritting teeth) So many late mortgage payments I finally pulled the plug and we moved closer to his work and attempted to sell the house in a short sale. (wince) Bankruptcy. (Complicated by a health-issue that landed him in the hospital three days before insurance kicked in, but still... ouch!) +I even ended up in jail. +I sat there in a little cell next to a drunk woman with puke drying on the front of her t-shirt and wondered, what in the hell was I doing? Was this really worth it? +You see, Mr. Kitt had forgotten to pay a speeding ticket. I got one for going five over on a side street near home. It was a stupid ticket, all the way around. It's always annoying to have to pay $75 for something stupid, and I think Mr. Kitt was annoyed at the whole concept. So he didn't pay it. Eventually, my license was suspended. Only, I didn't know it. Because he hid the notice, meaning to pay the ticket. Except he forgot. Again. And I got pulled over one night on the way to a birth. And arrested for driving on a suspended license. +I was booked, Danno. Printed. Mug shot. The whole deal. +You can imagine the scenario when Mr. Kitt posted my bail and picked me up from the police station, can't you? At this point, I was ready to shove a Love and Logic book up his ass to see if he could absorb it through osmosis. But I didn't. I also didn't scream, yell or berate. I cried. And believe me, I felt like crying. I felt like burying my head and weeping for days. I said I didn't know how much longer I could live like this. And I meant it. +Mr. Kitt was sorry - truly sorry. Of course he didn't mean to get me arrested. And I think, perhaps, this particular consequence was the one that really hit home, even though it happened to me instead of him. Maybe because it happened to me instead of him. Hurting someone else can often impact us more than hurting ourselves. +It took him a long time... (Mr. Kitt moves in what I call ""glacier time."" He does move... you just can't see it happen!) But he's finally got it down. He pays the bills on time, without incurring extra fees to pay them late. He keeps a check register and knows the bank balance at all times. He worries about money now in a way he never did before. +Just last night, he brought home some over-the-counter medicine I asked him to pick up for one of the sick kids and as he handed it to me, he said, ""Use it sparingly, that stuff might as well be liquid gold for what it cost!"" I actually did a double take. In the past, he wouldn't have thought twice about picking up a seven dollar bottle of anything. He wouldn't have even considered it, he just would have done it and assumed the money was there to make the purchase. +Not anymore. +Last week, he made an honest mistake. We recently changed banks, and he paid a bill out of our old account by accident. It was an online payment, and he just chose the wrong account in the dropdown box. It was an accident. Trust me, I've had them myself. Once, I paid our mortgage twice in one month due to an online error on my part. Ouch. To say money was tight that month is like saying Karen Carpenter was a little too thin. +And of course, now we have the usual fees to pay for bounced checks (because nothing was in the other account to cover it, of course, all our money was transferred to the new account) but I could empathize with Mr. Kitt. I did and do. +Little honest mistakes I can handle, they happen to everyone. But I have a feeling the big ones, the totally unconscious ones, those are gone for good. That Love and Logic thing really does work, if you're willing to watch someone else suffer the natural consequences of their actions... and yeah, sometimes you have to suffer them right along with them. *sigh* I think I've done my time - literally - in the service of natural consequences. At least, I hope so. + _(p.s. By the way, yes I did make it to the birth after I was pulled over and arrested... and the baby was beautiful!)_" +622,Love Your Readers,Tx Tall Tales,How To,2013-08-02,2013-11-02,2022-01-04 08:35:56,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/love-your-readers,1. Your readers are precious. Help them. 2. Help Your Readers. Categorized Your Story Correctly.,"['Better Stories', 'Formatting', 'Introduction', 'Postscript', 'Readable', 'Rules Of Posting', 'Story Content', 'White Space']",4.81,"============================ +Your readers are precious. Help them + _My first foray into the How-to category. Some notes on making your stories more 'readable' and therefore, more enjoyable._ +============================ +Let's face it. The readers here on Literotica have a lot to choose from. If they have any issues with your story, it's easy enough to drop out of yours, and start up a new one. If you're lucky. Often they'll skip to the end and give you the old one star for pissing them off. +My simple advice? If you want to keep your readers, make their reading experience enjoyable. +Why should you listen to me? I have had some success on the site. I've been posting here for 12 years. I eliminated a lot of backlog in 2001, posting numerous stories, including one that made it to the top spot in the Group Sex Top List. I took a break for a couple of years, then from 2004 through 2008, I posted a few stories a year, hitting the number one spot again, with The Perfect Game, which now has nearly a million views. In 2009, I started attending a writer's group and worked diligently on my writing skills. It paid off with The Accidental Nudist Cabin, which spent a few years at #1 in the Loving Wives category, and was my first contest winner. Since then, I've had multiple #1 stories in 4 different categories (Group Sex, Loving Wives, Exhibitionist & Voyeur, and Romance), had two more contest wins, and have gone from less than 500 favorites, to number 6 overall with nearly 4000 favorites. I have 140 stories posted, over 90% of them have the coveted red H, indicating a score of 4.50 or higher. I may not be one of the best writer's on the site, but I've had success connecting with the readers. I'm willing to share what I've learned. + There are 6 components to creating a story on Literotica. Six. Really. Probably more than you would think. Allow me to elaborate. +1) **Story.** The Content, the message you're trying to get across 2) **Introduction and Postscript.** A chance to talk about your story to the reader 3) **Presentation.** Using the spacing, italics, bold, breaks, quotes, etc. 4) **Titles.** Title and one line description to hook your reader 5) **Tags.** Key information about your story, to make it more searchable 6) **Category.** Information about what kind of story it is +Of these six, three have to do with creating your story, and three have to do with the submission process and how your story is found on Literotica. This document will deal with the three elements of your story. We'll deal with elements of submission later. + *** * * The Story * * *** +The most essential part of your submission, is a story worth telling. This is not meant to be a guide to improve your writing. Better authors have done the job, and I'd refer you to them. Still, it's worth repeating the essentials. + 1) **Have a Story to Tell** Plot, compelling characters, interesting setting. Without such basics, you're wasting everybody's time. Yes, there are exceptions. No, you're probably not good enough a writer to ignore these elements. Then again, feel free to make a liar out of me. I'd love to be surprised. +2) **Watch Your Spelling** Use a spell-checker. Please. How people fail to do this still amazes me. Is it that difficult? One button press, on most editors, and all your very worst flaws are exposed. Half a dozen spelling errors in the first paragraph, and I'm moving on. And I'm patient. +3) **Check Your Grammar** Writing tools like MS Word have a built in grammar checker. I don't write in Word, I write in a simple editor. Still when I'm done, I load the text file into Word, and let it point out the worst of the Grammar errors. Great for catching double words, mixed tenses, sentence fragments, etc. Don't let its recommendations ruin your writing. +4) **Know Your Weaknesses** \- check for them We all have them. I do the your/you're thing all too often. Readers will think you don't know the difference and castigate you for it. Yes, I know the difference, but when I'm typing as fast as I can, the words in my head already out-pacing the keyboard, things get messy. Do a search, check for your common mistakes, especially homonyms. There/their, your/you're, to/too, it's/its, whatever you're own personal foibles are. Two recent stories I read used passed for past repeatedly. Drove me crazy. Don't get me started on lay/lie... +5) **Willing Suspension of Belief** It's fantasy, we know. Still, a 15"" cock? Really? Face it, 8 inches is big, anyone who tells you otherwise is lying. Nine is huge. Ten pushes the bounds of reality. Suspend Belief, don't destroy it. It's fiction, not Manga. +Same for 32FF tits. For that matter, you probably never want to use precise measurements, D cup gets the message across. Screwing two hours without coming (cumming?)? Three different studies (including Masters & Johnson) place the average time between penetration and orgasm for man between 2.4 minutes and 7.3 minutes. Not 24 to 73 minutes. Be reasonable. Pacing and control can allow a man to last 15 to 20 minutes. Two hours fuck-fests are kind of ridiculous. +Your hero benches 500 lbs easily? Right. Every woman is 5'2"" weighs 100lbs and is a blue-eyed blonde, the most beautiful woman ever seen, with 36DD breasts, a 20"" waist, and 34 hips. Except that every third woman is a natural redhead of course. 6'1"" tall is average height. By the way, there are a limited number of Navy SEALs. Every SEAL ever born has appeared in at least three Loving Wives tale. The lottery is a one in 20,000,000 shot, not a sure thing. Billionaires? C'mon. Give me a break. +6) **Consistency** Don't mix up the names of your characters. It happens all the time; I've been guilty of it. Be consistent in your stories. Time lines, names, locations. Your readers will remember if you don't. For any longer story, I keep notes of my characters attributes, relationships, backgrounds, etc. I write chapter summaries. I use a calendar to maintain a reasonable time line. Mess up these details, and I assure you, your readers will call you on it. +7) **Write Better** After you get past the essentials 1-6 above, it's time to worry about better writing. Dialog. Show don't tell. Read out loud. Edit ruthlessly. Murder your darlings. +No way I'm going down that path. Not here. This would be 100 pages long, and I'd never say it half as well as others have before me. Stephen King wrote a great book, On Writing. Read it. Take Elmore Leonard's 10 rules to heart. Zen in the Art of Writing by Ray Bradbury. Bird by Bird: Some Instructions On Writing and Life by Anne Lamott. If you want to be a better writer, read. Better yet, read with a purpose. +If you don't have a copy of The Elements of Style, and haven't read it at least once, cover-to-cover, stop writing. Stop. Now. I'm not kidding. It may seem arbitrary and old-fashioned, but the advice it provides will never go out of style. +Alright, enough about the story itself, let's move on to the... + *** * * Introduction and Postscript * * *** +At the beginning and end of your story you have a chance to clarify things, and connect with your readers. My suggestion is use them. +**Introduction (NOT Prologue)** +Provide a short introduction. Some people might call these Author Notes. If you do nothing else, you can put the same short description that accompanies your story listing here. I like to make the introduction in italics. PacoFear, in his magical Words on Skin does a perfect job. You might want to check it out. (With over 2 million reads, and a thousand favorites, you probably already have.) +http://www.literotica.com/s/words-on-skin +The elements of the Introduction are: +1) _Any required declarations_ Characters over 18 years old, copyright, celebrities, etc. +2) _Heads up to the reader for surprises_ Anything that crosses category lines fits well here. Gay themes in an Incest story, for example. Incest in Group Sex. Whichever category you file it under, you might want to mention the other. +Squick factor. Erotic couplings with things like fetishes, anal, etc. Mention it or hear about it. +Death, murder, torture. Physical abuse of any type can be a real turnoff for readers. Again worth bringing up, _before_ they get too far into the story. +No Sex. Most of the readers are here for the EROTICA part of Literotica. If there's little or no sex, say so. Unless you're really a master of the LITerature part of Lit. You folks can ignore me. What are you even doing reading this treatise? Go back to writing. Pretty please. Don't make me beg, it's ugly. Alright, fine, I'm begging. Happy? +3) _Story (or chapter) Description_ A preference of mine. Tell 'em a little about what you're going to tell 'em. The one line in the description doesn't do much for a reader. Here's a chance to let them know what they're getting into. This is especially considerate in long, multi-chapter stories. +4) _Credits_ If you have an editor, give them credit here. If the story was inspired by another, mention it. Inspired by real-life? Go ahead and tell them how. This one's simple enough - give credit where credit's due. +5) _Continuation_ Make sure the reader knows if this is a multi-part story, or is somehow related to another story. It should be reflected in your title and description, ideally. If it's not, make sure you mention it in the Prologue. Something I don't do often enough, but should, is mention when it's the final chapter of an ongoing series. A lot of people won't read a story until all chapters are available. + **Postscript (NOT Epilogue)** +Any personal message you have for your reader, this is the place for it. It's a chance to connect, to communicate directly. Inspiration, reason for writing, preview of future chapters, these are all worth sharing. +I like to italicize the postscript and put some type of visual break between the rest of the story and the postscript. Again, it makes it clear where the story ends, and the add-on begins. +Thank them for reading your work. They just spent anywhere from a few minutes to hours perusing your effort. If they stuck through to the end, a word of thanks never hurts. +If you want feedback, votes, comments, it (mostly) doesn't hurt to ask for it. Don't beg, don't threaten, simple words of appreciation work best. If you're looking for specific feedback, say so. +Great. Now we've completed the Introduction and Postcript. Time for the third element... + *** * * Presentation * * *** +How you format, highlight and present your stories has a lot to do with how easy it is to read. There's not a lot to play with here, but I'll give you my suggestions. These aren't hard and fast rules, it's my own personal experience, from a decade of posting to Literotica, and reading thousands off stories. + **Rule (1):** _Make it easy for the Reader to know what's going on at all times_ +Visual differentiation is key. If you have an introduction, use italics to mark it. Put a visual break after it - for example \------------------- or =================== or *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* +Whatever you use, be consistent from story to story. I like to use longer visual breaks for the Introduction and Postscript. Shorter ones for breaks in the story. +You have the submission broken up into three parts. An Introduction, The Story, A Postscript. Visually differentiated and consistent from story to story. Good start. +Within the story itself, it's more of the same. +We only have so many tools to work with. Text, Bold, Italics, Underlining, White Space, and Punctuation are the main ones. **Bold** within the text is very distracting. I recommend against it. Underlining is even more so. Use _italics_ for word emphasis. Although not recommended by many, so many online readers are accustomed to it, ALL CAPS WORKS FOR SHOUTING/SCREAMING/ETC. +To bold or italicize text, use the HTML < > and syntax, with an 'i' for italics, 'b' for bold, and 'u' for underline. For example: + **Bold** _Italics_ Underline +Whatever you use, be sparing with it. I'll repeat that later. It's important. + **Chapters** Bold works well for Chapter Headings. It's the only place I commonly use it within the story. Add an extra blank line before it, because white-space is your friend. You can number your chapters, or not. Up to you. Get creative here. Just make it standout. E.g. + **Chapter One: A Lame Beginning** + **A Lame Beginning** + ***~*~* A Lame Beginning *~*~*** +================== **A Lame Beginning** ================== +An alternative to bold Chapter Headings is underlining. It's the only place I consider using underlining, since it's so distracting. E.g. +Chapter Two: A Lamer Continuation + **Change in POV** Within the text, if you have a change in who's telling the story, again, visual differentiation. Something as simple as: +* * * (What I use most of the time) or +* * * ADAM * * * (If you want to make it clear who's speaking. +* * * * * (Works fine as well) (Adam) +The purpose is simple. Don't confuse the reader. Let them know when something's changed. Personally, I don't think it's necessary to include who the new POV is. As a writer, you should be able to make that clear in the first sentence. At least the first paragraph. + **Time/Date Notes** Although rarely needed, if you're going to put time/date headings in front of a writing section, Bold works well. It's the only place other than chapter headings where I use bold. Some use Italics, I like to save that for story emphasis. +**Tuesday, 9:30 AM** + **One Year Later** +Most of the time, it's probably better to reveal the change of time within the context of the story. + **Break in Continuity** A continuity break usually indicates a major change in time or location. If there's a break in your story, you have three options. 1) Let the reader figure it out on their own (Not my preference), 2) Use white space, an extra blank line or two, or 3) Use a visual differentiator. +I like the last choice. Breaks in continuity I indicate with three spaced asterisks. +* * * +Simple, clear and to the point. Any visual separator will do. I've seen a lot of variations on this. Whatever you do, be consistent. + **Verbal Emphasis in Dialog** When I want to add emphasis to a _particular_ word, I italicize it. If I italicize an entire sentence or phrase, and it's quoted, it's usually meant to let the reader know the phrase is spoken louder or with particular emphasis. In a story I'm working on, a woman calls out to her husband as he leaves. Each time with more emphasis. +""Honor?"" +""Honor!"" +""HONOR!"" +"" _HONOR!_ "" +Whatever you do, use it sparingly. Nothing is more jarring than to see italics in every other sentence. I'm not saying only use one or two per story, but IMHO you shouldn't see more than one or two on any visible page of your story when reading it. Same applies to exclamation marks. _Don't_ overuse them!! _DON'T!!!_ + **Break of Thought or Interruption** The em dash (—), a long hyphen, is used when there's a break in thought. I'm not going to go into detail about the difference between an em dash, an en dash, and a dash. Let's face it, most writers are going to use a dash, the hyphen (-) character on the keyboard. In general, the em dash and dash can be used interchangeably for our purposes. The thing to remember is the em dash does not use spaces: +Style—not substance—is the vital thing. +It can be replaced with a simple dash, but it should be used with spaces. +Style – not substance – is the vital thing. +It can be used when a character is interrupted during dialog. For example: +""She's a friend. She doesn't matter, I swear. It was only—"" +""Don't! Don't say it was only sex!"" +""—flirting. That's all."" + **Omission, unfinished sentences or tension** The ellipsis (…) is used to indicate an omission. When skipping over a part of a story, or something similar, the ellipsis indicates the skipped words. It can be indicated with the single ellipsis character, (…), three periods, (...), or as suggested in most style guides, three spaced periods, (. . .). +It can also used to indicate an unfinished thought. In dialog, it's for an unfinished sentence. It can be for trailing off into silence (aposiopesis). For example: +""But I thought she was..."" +In a similar way, it can inspire melancholy or longing. +""I wish things were different..."" +When writing one side of a dialog, particularly one side of a phone call, when overheard, the ellipsis can indicate the omission of the other side of the phone call. +""Hello?...No, he's not here...I'm not sure when he'll be back...No, I wouldn't tell you if I did know...Same to you!"" +Finally, it can be used to for any short pause in speech or text, often to indicate tension within a statement. A hesitation for emphasis. +""It was a...different way of doing it. + **Individual Word Emphasis** Sometimes, rarely I hope, you may want to place heavy emphasis on each word of a sentence. One way of accomplishing this is to make each one a full stop. +""I. Said. Don't!"" (or ""I.Said.Don't!"") +""I...said...don't!"" seems more hesitant than declarative. +""I-said-don't!"" just looks confusing. +"" _I said don't_!"" does not imply the staccato emphasis. +""I SAID DON'T!"" sounds like shouting. + **Quotes** Dialog is bounded front and back by quotation marks. Officially, you can use either the double quote ("") or single quote ('). Nearly all modern dialog is written with double quotes. If you use a word processor instead of an editor you can use different marks (curly) for the beginning and end of a quote. +""Hi, I'm Bob."" (Simple Quotation Marks) +“Hi, I'm Bob.” (Smart or Curly Quotation Marks) +For a quote within a quote, alternate the types. +""He kept whining and whining, ‘It's too big!’ It was making me sick."" +If you're going to use single quotes inside of another quote, I recommend using 'curly' quotes, as demonstrated above, so as not to confuse the quotation marks with apostrophe marks. In Windows, ALT-0145 (on the number pad) results in a ‘, and ALT-0146 gives a ’. It happens infrequently enough that it's worth the extra effort. If you can't remember the alt codes, cut and paste. Or write in Word, it does it for you. +I'm not going to go into the use of punctuation marks with quotation marks. It differs between American and British style, and is complex. This is not a style guide. Read your Chicago Manual of Style, or whatever the British version is. Don't have one? Buy it, and then read it. +I do have one pet peeve. In multi-paragraph quotations, opening quotations marks are used on every paragraph, closing quotations marks are only used on the final paragraph. Is that so difficult to remember? +“Dear John, +“Thanks for a wonderful time. Let's get together and do it again soon. +“Yours, Jean.” +With closing quotation marks on every paragraph, the above is two or three different people talking.

The size of a soft penis does not indicate the size of a hard one, since the smaller one usually increases proportionally more than the larger one. In old age, the penis usually decreases in size. +The nerve and hydraulic system that causes erections, remains on automatic during sleep and a normal healthy penis becomes erect about every 90 minutes. + **Model Variations** +The standard penis is designed with a loose retractable skin covering the head. +Some models have been customized by **Circumcision** , or cutting away this foreskin to expose the head. Both the standard and circumcised models are equally suited to their sexual function. + **Troubleshooting** + **Priapism** \- when the hydraulics in the penis fail to drain, it will remain erect. This malfunction requires the service of a medical doctor in less than 4 hours to avoid serious damage to the penis. + **Phimosis** \- if the foreskin will not retract over the head of the penis, it can cause hygiene problems and needs service by a medical doctor. + **Paraphimosis** \- if the foreskin slides behind the head but will not return to its normal position it can cut off circulation to the head and needs to be repaired by a medical doctor. + **Leaks, No Flow, Surface Defects** \- the penis should be taken in for a checkup if there are any sores, blisters or rashes on or around it, and if it is difficult, irritating or painful to urinate, or if there is a discharge leaking from it. + **Preventive Maintenance** +While the original design of the penis with foreskin has the advantage of protecting the sensitive head, it does require additional cleaning procedures. +An oily smelly substance called **Smegma** tends to accumulate under the foreskin. This needs periodic cleaning by sliding the foreskin back while bathing and washing away the accumulated smegma before it builds up and becomes irritating. + + **Scrotum** + **Specs and Dimensions** +The scrotum is a sac of loose skin that hangs under the penis and houses the two **Testicles** outside of the body. It is a temperature-regulating device that keeps the testicles slightly cooler than the normal body temperature by the evaporation of sweat and by becoming tighter or looser in response to temperature, which moves the testicles closer to or farther away from the body. +The scrotum is divided into two compartments, each with a testicle, the egg shaped organ that produces **Sperm**. Since the testicles are sensitive to pressure and are in a constricted area between the legs, the left one usually hangs lower than the right one. + **Troubleshooting** + **Cryptorchidism** \- both testicles should be in the scrotal sac. If they cannot be located there after a hot bath, they may not have descended from inside the abdomen. This malfunction requires service by a medical doctor. + **Hernia** \- there is often a weak spot in the abdomen where the testes descend into the scrotum. A hernia is a malfunction when a part of the intestine pushes thru this weak spot and hangs in the scrotal sac. This requires service by a medical doctor. + **Torsion** is a malfunction when the testicle rotates and the spermatic cord and blood vessels get twisted, cutting off circulation. This painful condition requires emergency services of a doctor to prevent gangrene. + **Testicular Cancer** is one of the most common cancers in men between the ages of 15 and 35. Unlike other problems with the testes, there may be no pain or symptoms with cancer. + **Preventive Maintenance** +Monthly **Testicular Self-Examinations** (TSE) are the best way to detect cancer early, so that it can have a better chance of treatment. +After a warm bath, when the scrotal skin is loose, roll each testicle between the thumb and forefinger of both hands. The testicles should be firm and smooth, with no hard lumps. +If any lumps are felt, take the testicle to a medical doctor for further tests to see if it is cancer or not. If detected early, testicular cancer has a high cure rate and usually does not affect fertility. + **Protective Accessories** +To protect the penis from sexually transmitted diseases, **Latex Condoms** are recommended for those having sexual encounters with multiple partners or when the partner's safe sexual history or drug use history is not known." +624,Make Big Bucks Selling Fiction,BarbraNovac,How To,2008-10-03,2009-12-09,2022-01-04 08:36:00,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/make-big-bucks-selling-fiction,1.

We know you already write erotic fiction, and this article is about getting paid for those efforts. But if you do have a couple of stories on Lit already, you will know that it is not easy to write decent stories. +So be prepared to put time in, and be prepared to tailor your work to what the market wants. I know, I know, you are a creative genius and people should be on their knees thanking you for your gifts. But, just in case they are not throwing money at you YET, tailoring your work will help bring them to you. +2\. Research. +UGH! The R word. But yes. You will have to do some research. You have to take a look at the several publishing houses that sell erotica, and buy some of the books and read them. Now, the place that erotic fiction is at just now, is erotic romance. Please don't be put off. +When I first became interested in erotica, all you could get was romance with a HEAE (happy ever after ending). Now they have moved into HFNE (Happy for now ending) and I know of two writers who have been asked to write straight erotica that does not necessarily involve romance at all. +The genre is evolving. However, like all these things you're better to get in on the ground floor and start building a profile now. What you do have to do is read who else is out there. +Go to Ezines and check what is selling. Look for the latest lists on major book selling websites, and keep tabs on more mainstream Best Seller lists. +3\. Decide which publisher to go for. +This is a more difficult part of your preparation work and requires some hunting around. +Literotica sell work through this site and you may want to start there. Also check out the other publishers. They sell different kinds of work -- some are more edgy and less mainstream. +It's not cool to name the websites here, but there are sites and informaiton around for you to do proper research into the publisher that you chose. +Have they been around for a long time? Does the publisher have a good reputation? Have they nurtured some big names in the publishing world? +There are sites that compare publishers, royalties, first time sales annual sales and so forth. If you're interested in cash, this is a good place to get some stats. +There is the option of self publishing and some of the E sites will let you do that. +While you are reading all those e romance books, find out which ones you like, find favourite authors and decide where you fit in and see where they are published. +Remember, the money will roll in when you have several books out there. +4\. Read Submission Guidelines. +Now that you have decided on the publisher, you must must MUST read the submission guidelines. I can't stress how deeply important this is. If you think that getting published in the erotic romance world is easier than main stream romance world, you are kidding yourself. +It is tough, but there is still plenty of room. +They will tell you, very clearly, what they are looking for in a submission. This will give you a huge advantage over many of the other submissions. +Google 'synopsis' and learn how to do them properly. +Most of the publishers accept unsolicited manuscripts and they will tell you in their submission guidelines if they do or don't. +Also, if you are fortunate enough that the publisher you have chosen has a call for submissions, then follow through on that as your first choice if you can. That is specifically what they're looking for, but they're desire may only last a month or so. +I fell for this problem. I took too long to write a manuscript that happens to be quite good (she says modestly) for a submission request. By the time my submission got in there, they decided it was good enough to be passed on immediately to an editor, however, because they'd stopped running the special I had submitted for, my book is sitting in a 'waiting pile' till they decide to run the theme again. I was too late to make the deadline and now I have a good novel sitting in a half selected pile that I can't sell to anyone else. Its been there for three months now. +I could have sold it to many places in that time, and probably seen it published by name and out there making money for me. +Read the guidelines and submit fast. Most of the in house authors have been told a month before you what the publisher is looking for. +Do everything the submission guidelines say. It is very important. +5\. Submit. +That's the moment when you know that everything is in order. You have your synopsis complete, your first page of the email cover letter, the first three chapters and the final. +You have had it read by a good writing friend who will be honest with you. You have every typo removed. (When I sent my first manuscript out, an editor on Lit who had helped me a little with some stories happily read over it for me. I wouldn't' have gotten published without her valuable assistance.) +You have checked grammar and spelling twice and then again. You click the send button on your email, and it's in the lap of the gods. +If they want to see the entire novel, they will email you and ask for the whole manuscript to be sent. +6\. Immediately start work on the next one. This is a trick I've learnt the hard way. I almost went mad waiting for my first novel to come back. It took three months and it was a rejection. +In that time I could have written another novel and had it out there collecting its own rejections. +You will ease the pressure if you get going on the next one. Write for Lit, get another novel up, do everything you need to do. +It is likely that your first reply will be a rejection, so be ready with the next proposal to go out, so you can fix up the rejected one when it comes back. You will feel more like doing it, if you have a couple of novels on the boil. If you don't, all your eggs will be in one basket and that basket will be awful heavy and terribly important. +Also, try a different publisher with your second. That's another way to keep your work fresh and interesting. +7\. Rejected? +A rejection is a normal part of publishing and can happen at any level. I have written work that was outright rejected and I have written work that was rejected with long notes on how to fix it up. +When I received the long notes, I followed them to the letter, worked hard on the manuscript and sent it back to the same publisher. It was rejected again, with another set of notes. I followed them again, and re worked the whole thing just as they suggested, and my third submission was accepted. That was Double Crossed. +It took me a year to get that novel written and accepted, after its rejections. +I now have 2 more in the pipeline that were accepted on a 1 page synopsis. But you see, I had established myself as a 'stop at nothing' writer, and they trust me. They trust me because of the hard yards I put in and the way that I improved myself and honed my craft. +8\. Accepted! +Fantastic! You will get a very exciting email with all the details, as well as a series of contracts and other paraphernalia. Accepted doesn't mean, however, that you should stop writing the next ones and stop submitting. Keep going with that project. It will make your work on the edits more powerful. +Now, read your contract very carefully. Some publishing houses are willing to compromise. Do you want to give them digital rights but not hard copy rights? Think about this, it is your baby. So read the contract carefully and decide if it is really what you want. +Get yourself a bank account that will accept cheques in US dollars, because there will be plenty of them soon as you are paid royalties. Most of the publishers will only send out a cheque in US dollars, so you have to be ready to accept them. +And on that, the standard payment is 35% of the cover price which is very high for writers. You will find most publishers list royalties in the submission guidelines that you read very closely. +Find out about tax laws in your own country. This is important as you will be earning foreign income. +9\. Get your paperwork done right away. +Fill your contract in, sign it and send it back. You will also have to fill in paperwork for the blurb, the cover art and tax details. +If you need to get a US tax number get one. +Do all the things that you are asked to do and get them done promptly and in an efficient manner. Show at all times that you are a professional. +10\. Start Editing. +Ok, so this is a bit of a tough one. Editing is not an easy process. They will try to curb you to 'in house style' and they will work with you to create what they want from your novel. Your job is to be as flexible as possible and try to make the process work. Your editors' job is NOT to fix anything you can't be bothered to go back and fix. +In theory, you should be very surprised by your first round of edits because you had sent them what you thought was a perfect product when you submitted it the first time. Editing is pretty hard, and a very good editor will be particularly tough. Where possible, take direction. You do get paid by royalties after all, and the publishing house is giving you this professional to make sure you sell as many copies as possible. +It also goes toward selling your future novels, so do what you are told and learn from the process. It gets easier as you go along. Even the most prolific writers have to undergo rigorous editing process. +11\. Review book covers you like. +While your novel is with the editor, and you are working on the next submission, go through book covers that you like and make some notes. You will be asked to contribute to your book cover, and the more skilled you are at recognition, the better. +12\. Send in all your paperwork. +Make sure everything they need is sent in on time. +13\. Complete edits, line edits and final edits. +This is exciting because usually you are only a few days away from publication. Approve the cover art, approve the blurb. Get it all done fast, and professionally. +14\. START MARKETING! +The marketing process is even larger than the publishing process. If this article is popular, I will write another about the marketing process. +Good luck with all your submissions. +Don't forget to keep writing for Lit. This is where you got your start, and NOTHING beats those fan emails! +And, most of all, +Enjoy! +Barbra Novac. + +" +625,Make Your Wife Cuckold You,BJayCool,How To,2015-12-23,2018-02-01,2022-01-04 08:36:01,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/make-your-wife-cuckold-you,1. How to make your wife cuckold you. 2. Objections of wife and what to do about them.,"['Cuckold', 'Hot Wife', 'Humiliation', 'Husband', 'Wife']",4.38,"I have seen certain articles advising women on how to turn your husband into a willing cuckold but not found a decent one which could guide husbands on how to get their wives to cuckold them. The strange part is it's always the men who initiate or want cuckolding and usually not the women, the women may cheat but they don't harbour the fantasy of cuckolding there men (although as they cheat the husband is a cuckold). +Confusing hah... well I only want to say that women don't cheat with the intention of deriving pleasure from making their husbands cuckold, while the men or husbands sometimes want their wives to cheat and they derive pleasure in it. +I faced similar situation, derived pleasure in secretly fantasising about my wife cheating on me but do not know how to make it a reality. I have overcome it and now I am a very satisfied cuckold with an equally satisfied married life. +Cuckold is a fetish, a passion for the man who derives his pleasure in knowing that his wife is having a time of her life, sexually, with some other man. Why other man? Why not the husband himself; well this is a million dollar question. Before I answer that question let me tell you about cuckolds in general and remember I am talking about willing cuckold, a person who knows and accepts his wife with other men. +Most of the cuckolds are men in their 30s or more, living comfortable lifestyles. They are usually alpha males with above-average intelligence, hold high-power executive positions in their work and earn above-average incomes. They have their own way of looking at life. These men are generally soft spoken, well mannered, avoid confrontation but are not cowards. They have responsibilities towards there demanding work, family and expectations from peer to be always on top. They need escape, need to lose control, let someone else take control and be responsible. +Well this does not make a man cuckold but when it is coupled with a deep love for their partner, when it is coupled with a sense of inferiority in sex department say small penis, erectile dysfunction whether actual or physiological, when it is coupled with a sense of pride in knowing that men are drooling over your women, it sows the seeds of cuckolding. +There is another reason also, men are always attracted to things which are difficult to get. When you first met your wife to be, she was very much unattainable and this fact attracted you towards her and when life gets into a comfortable rut after marriage the strong desire you felt in the beginning subsides. Cuckolding gives you your desire for her, the desire to win her again from the other man in her life. +Further cuckolds are generally submissive in nature so they enjoy the pain, humiliation, shame and inadequacy that come with cuckolding. +Ok... let's not lose track of the topic of discussion, how to get your wife to cuckold you, but before we get started you should know if you really want this, you really want your wife to fuck someone else, to suck some other guy's cock and then kiss you, with his smell still lingering on her lips. Are you ready to accept other man in your marriage? Are you willing to let him take control of your sex life? +I guess whenever you fantasise your wife with some other guy you feel excited and you want it to happen... congratulations you are a cuck wannabe... but let me remind you these feeling are not uncommon and are no indication that you want to be a cuckold actually. Many men enjoy these kind of fantasies and once they cum (masturbate or otherwise) they do not think about it till they are horny again. So if you enjoy these kinds of fantasies during sex or masturbation, no problem enjoy it, but if you want it be turned into reality then I would suggest you do the following self tests before you actually do something about it. +The self test I have in mind are not exhaustive and you can improvise and have your own test; the idea is to find out if you really want it to happen and if you can really handle it if... if it happens. +First test - Try to imagine your wife with someone else just after your have ejaculated and your cock is limp. See for yourself how much you like the idea now. You can try to do the same in the morning, say breakfast time when your wife is getting ready for the office. Try to picture her with her boss, kissing him, laughing with him, getting intimate with him. Don't just picture the hard cock slipping inside the hot snatch, but imagine the other aspects of sharing her, like she is spending time with him at the cost of ignoring you. Her boss taking her out on a date while you are left to take care of the kids. +Well this one will give you a good idea of your level of fantasy, if you still want it, good there is another test. +Second test - No more imagining it, get a field test done. You have to choose a candidate, not just some know man but someone whom you despise, could be a bully in the office, a disgusting neighbour. Someone you know is a philanderer, someone who is always interested in trying his luck with wives of other people. Now invite this man to your house or arrange to meet him along with your wife at some party. Give him a chance, leave him alone with your wife and get away for some time. +How do you feel knowing your wife is with this guy while you are waiting? This man may try something or may not, but when you are away you believe that he may be flirting with your wife. You have given yourself some time limit to wait before you join them again, it could be half hour, an hour or more. See if you are able to wait that long or you barge in sooner. This will give you an idea of what to expect in future and if you are willing to go this path, well then let's get along with understanding the level of cuckolds. +There could be two types willing and unwilling. Unwilling cuckolds are the ones who are cuckolded by a cheating spouse and when they find out they do not accept it and the marriage ends in a divorce or other bitter consequences. Willing are the ones who accepts it or wants it and many a times leads their wives into it. We are off course dealing with the willing cuckolds only. +I have divided willing cuckolds into four stages as per their willingness. +The one who feels happy to know that his wife is a sexual object for other men and is happy to find out that his wife fucks others. The cuck is contended in knowing only, he does not want to face his wife's lover and he may listen to his wife narrating her encounter with her lover but would never want her lover to know that he is supporting it. This is the first level and a first step for leading to other stages. Sometimes he does not move on to next level and stays at this stage only; this could be because he feels ashamed to admit it with her lover. Sometimes he is just dropped into this stage by his cheating wife and he is unsure of what to do and this indecision keeps him there. He is unwilling to accept his feeling and thus unable to move on to other stages. +The first stage is quite common amongst the cuckolds; they let their wives go to their lover while they wait for them at home. They get sympathy love from their wives, who feel guilty at cheating on their loving husbands. In some cases the cuckolds pretend that they know nothing of her lover and in some cases they confront their wives and demand to know all about it and yet never stop them. +The next stage is quite open; here the cuckold had accepted his feelings. He has lead his wife to this point or the wife has lead him into this doesn't matters, what matters is that both are comfortable about it. Neither the wife is guilty about cheating nor is the husband confused. The lover in this case knows that the cuckold is willing and the sex happens in the marital bed while the husband takes the guest room. Cuckold also gets to enjoy watching his wife having sex with her lover. Cuckold enjoys the gut wrenching feeling that his wife is doing all the things that she never did with him. +The third stage is where the humiliation starts. The humiliation is always there however in third stage it's prominent. The cuck enjoys the humiliation he suffers at the hand of her lover or by his wife. Usually the humiliation is an important part of this lifestyle as the moment his wife cuckolds him he feels humiliated and he enjoys it. However the third stage he feels he deserved it due to his inability to satisfy his wife sexually like her lover can. Usually the third stage is inevitable if the cuck has ventured to the second stage. He could have stayed at stage one if he chooses to but if he has moved to stage two it's almost impossible to stay there, eventually he will slip to the third stage. It could be mild humiliation or it could be really abusive depending upon the wife and the lover. Many cuck wants abuse at the hands of their wives and they encourage it. The more the wife or lover is abusive the more he enjoys. +The fourth stage i.e. the cuck with gay tendencies. This is the stage to which not every cuckold wants to reach. The first three stages are intermingled and one can easily slip to stage two or three but not to stage four. A person who is a cuckold does not automatically turns gay, he has to have those feeling in him. Sometime men who are confused and could not accept their gay tendencies or do not realise them, tends to realise them when they see their wives in the arms of other men. These cuckolds secretly want to replace their wives and want to be with these men. They love to serve the lovers, suck their cocks, cleans the cum, eat creampie, wants abusive treatment and love it if the bull fucks both the wife and husband. +Now a little bit on why do women cheat or why do women do not cheat? As per leading physiologists the reasons for cheating are lack of attention or intimacy, revenge, bad sex, financial independence, feeling neglect or feeling lonely etc. But more important is why do they don't cheat and especially if the above mentioned reasons are there to tempt them. Well the answer is they love and they fear, they love their husband and fear hurting them. They fear of losing the comfortable relationship, financial support, backlash from the society/family etc. +Now you want her to cuckold you, cheat on you but you also want that the relationship continues and she continue to love you. Definitely you cannot push her out of your life, you cannot neglect her or make her feel lonely so that she cheats on you. So how you going to do it, I try to answer that in the following paragraphs. +Now let's get started with the big question how to get your wife to cuckold you? Before we do that let me emphasise on the need to have a good communication with your partner. To have a good relationship the key is to have an open and free communication, be it boyfriend girlfriend, husband wife or in our case cuckold and cukolderess. If you are not at ease with your wife to communicate your feelings or the opposite then misunderstandings creeps in and spoil everything. You need to understand exactly what your wife is comfortable at; likewise she needs to understand your feelings. +Try to understand your wife, is she open with you, is she comfortable to discuss about sex, about her old boyfriends. Does she discuss about her work buddies especially male buddies, does she ever told you about any man making pass at her. Likewise do you talk to her on the same page? If yes, very good if not, well improve the communication. You start to open up by discussing about any female friend you have and encourage her to talk about her male friends. Make her feel free to discuss about her old boyfriends, sex, etc. as if she is talking to her girlfriend. +Once you have established good communication it would be easier for you to open up completely later on. The first inference that a woman derives out when a husband says that he wants her to fuck other men is that her husband wants to have sex with other girls or worse he already has a secret relationship going. So just don't blurt it out as you are always going to freak her out if you don't go step by step. So never say that. +Next you need to imbibe in you permanently, is to express you love verbally from time to time. You have to actually use the phrase ""I love you"" more often. I am sure you express your love to her but keep in mind the phrase and use it with sincerity with her on regular basis. +Next keep it permanently in your mind that you have to complement her more often. Complement her on cooking (if she cooks), complement her on any decision she made and most importantly complement her on her beauty. Now here is a catch, don't tell her how beautiful, how sweet or how innocent she looks. Always tell her how hot she looks, how sexy you find her in an outfit, how you saw other men drool over her. Complement her on her hot boobs, sexy ass, smooth legs, whatever is the hottest body part she has. Encourage her to wear sexy and a bit revelling dresses. Buy her sexy lingerie's it would make her feel hot. +Once you have developed open communication and you continue to express your love and complement her, you have set the ball rolling. It's not a one day job it needs to be done regularly till she feels totally comfortable with being a hot women. +Now you need to find out about your wife and act accordingly. Is she submissive or aggressive in bed? If she is aggressive and takes lead in sex it's good otherwise you have to work hard and make her aggressive. You can tell her that you love it when she is on top and fucks you. You have to make her believe that you enjoy when she grabs your hairs and buries your head onto her snatch. You show that you love to eat her, make her cum. +The important part, stop asking her to give you blowjobs. Yes you heard me correctly; you can't have blowjobs from her anymore. Anyway you wanted to be cuckolded and you want that your wife should use her mouth with some other man. From now onwards you will lick her pussy but never expect a return of favours; even if she wants to do it, you have to let her know that you don't like it anymore, that you like to kiss her and eat her only. +Well the idea is to let her focus on her pleasure only and not yours. This will unlimitedly make her aggressive in bed with you. Let me tell you something else, women derive pleasure in pleasing there man, well most women do if not all. You have to deny this pleasure to her. It will frustrate her a little bit and she will have this unsatisfied urge which will come handy when she actually decides to cuckold you. +Be submissive to her not just in bed but otherwise too. Respect her decisions or better ask her to make important decisions. Don't show your desire to go out with your friends but encourage her for a girl's night out. Put her pleasure first in everything and be totally submissive and loving to her. She would find it frustrating at first but soon she will get used to be the one who is leading. +This is not a simple task; don't rush the things as it will take long time, sometimes months and years to accomplish this. You have to put her into lead, let her take decisions, let her spend time with her girlfriends. Have her dress sexy and make her feel hot and desired. She will love the attention she will get from other men. But remember this alone will not make her cuckold you. She may be tempted to experience with other men when they flirt with her but she will not do it. Well most of the women will not cheat at this level and if your wife is the one in minority still it will not help your purpose as she will not let it be known to you. +Now is the time for some pillow talk, time to take things further. Talk to her what she would like to do if she was to be single again or who is the hottest guy according to her. What would she do if she is to spend a night with a hot guy or with which guy she would like to hook up again if she be eighteen again? +All these are hypothetical questions and appears to be harmless so less likely to offend her. You can have your own set of questions the idea is to open her to talk about sex with other guys. Have patience don't just blurt out everything in one night. Slowly open her up to the idea. Initially she may respond with like that she loves you so much that she just can't think of anyone else etc. But continue to open her up and talk to her like a friend or better her girlfriend. +Eventually she would start to open up, very slowly; she will talk about other guys and will try to judge your reaction. She will even be surprised that you are not jealous. She would demand to know why you are not jealous. Show her that you love her and anything that she likes is always pleasurable for you. +Make her talk about her old boyfriends, the sex with them, how good or bad was that. Put a question that if she is free of consequences would she want to experience it again. Once these kinds of talks are repeated for some nights she will start suspecting something fishy. This is a tricky situation in which the wife will assume that you are having an affair and your guilty conscious is making you talk like that. Now is the time for you to show that you love her and no one else. All the efforts you have put in earlier at being a submissive will come handy. +Tell her that you love her so much that nothing is more important to you than her pleasure. You want that she live her life to the fullest and enjoy everything that this world has to offer. The sexual relationship that she had in past or even if she has in future are too small an issue to bother you and deter your love for her. Maintain this stand with her, tell her she is so hot that any man would be lucky to have her and you are that lucky guy. +Remember I told earlier that women don't cheat as they fear hurting the man they love, well with this you have taken care of it. But it doesn't mean that she will find a man next day to fuck. She will only be confused but will feel less of guilt when a man flirts with her and she likes it. The communication, the pillow talks should continue and the more open and explicit it gets the better. +Bad sex is one of the important reasons women choose to cheat. How bad are you in bed? If you have followed what is told above your have already frustrated her. You have focused in pleasuring her through your mouth, well continue doing that with less and less of penetrative sex. Just continue being bad in sex. She will miss some good sex and she could complain about it. This is the time you have to establish that you are not good enough for her in bed and that she deserves better. She will believe you due to all the male attention she is receiving. Don't let her focus on improving the sex life with you just keep on reminding her how good it was with one of her ex or how good it could be with someone else. Do it subtly. +If everything is going good and she is openly talking with you then it's the time to tell her that you want her to enjoy the life and have sex with some other guy. Tell her you love her and love her so much that you don't want her to miss on something good in life i.e. sex. You don't want to lose her and want her for the rest of the life. You have come out in open with her, the reactions could be different. +She could say, +""I knew something of this kind is cooking in your perverted mind,"" or +""Don't be a stupid I love you too much, I just can't go and fuck someone,"" or +""I don't want anyone else I want you only,"" or +""How can you say something like this!!"" +Whatever be her reaction at this point don't worry you have done enough groundwork that the only thing in her mind is ""is this possible?"" +Don't push the things further; you have done your job. The key to further success is just good communication and falling in line with whatever she decides. At this point she is not telling you that she want to fuck someone but it's imprinted forever at the back of her mind that she has options. +Whatever you have been doing till now must continue. Still it's not the time that she will do it. You would have many more conversations and you have to absolutely convince her that you want this. This is the time of confusion, indecision for her. She would start giving it a serious thought. At times she would also get angry and would try to talk you out of this. Actually she is trying to be sure about it. +She will remain confused, hesitant till the last moment, till the very moment she cuckolds you. She will have negative thoughts, gets cold feet about it. You have to create opportunities for her if you want to take it forward from your bedroom talks, to reality. Create opportunity but with whom, that is a big question. Let me tell you that you cannot choose the guy for her; eventually she will pick up someone on her own. Then how do you create the opportunity. +By allowing her time with her friends, especially male friends and you have to take care of the kids. Chances are she will hook on with someone known, so don't plan on going for a vacation and wish for an encounter with a stranger. Just keep on assuring her that you love her. Another thing that you can do is ask her to play naughty games with you. Ask her to seduce someone of her choice, just some mild flirting, challenge her, it will help her to open up. Keep complimenting her and reminding her that she is so desirable. +It will happen she will cuckold you and you have to wait at home for her on that first time. She would be a bit unsure when she returns home, show your love and reassure her. +Once it happens, congratulations you are a stage one cuckold, now its upto you if you want to stay there or want to move on to stage two. One thing I am sure that your wife will not pull you from stage one to two. It's you who have to choose, but once you choose to move on to stage two you could not stay there and will be pulled further by either your wife or her lover. +The stage four, well if you are desirous, you need a bi-sexual bull to partner your wife. Not every guy could be of help. Happy hunting. +I hope you find the article interesting, your feedback and suggestions are most welcome. + +" +626,Making The Best of Phone Sex,nitengale,How To,2001-02-26,2001-02-26,2022-01-04 08:36:03,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/making-the-best-of-phone-sex,Simple tips for safe phone fun.,"['Comfort Level', 'Computer Screen', 'Good Thing', 'Hours Week', 'Phone Sex', 'Sex', 'Sex Chat', 'Sex Partner', 'Thing', 'Words Turn']",3.91,"_**Satirical view on the how-to's of phone sex**_ +On-line relationships. They are everywhere, in all forms. On all levels. I have had a few. I have a few. On various levels. But what happens when you take that on-line relationship one step further? I’m talking about the ultimate experience of a long distance relationship where two can merge emotionally and share physical feelings without any physical contact with each other. I’m talking about phone sex. +So you meet what you think is the nicest person on-line, and over time you share all kinds of things. You know each other as well as you know yourselves. He or she is fast becoming someone you want to spend lots of time with. Then comes the big question. “Can I call you?” And with all the heated exchanges you shared on-line, you now think the call will lead to phone sex.

There are simply some people who are better left coming to you through a computer screen, and some you wish you had talked to a whole lot sooner. We all connect to people in various ways.

Now you have to interpret what they are saying through the inflection in their voice, and not with the use of punctuation or smiley faces. Lots of people can do this. Some cannot. There are those who can make you swoon or make you wet or hard with a simple exchange of words on-line, but get them on the phone, and you suddenly feel as if you are with a telemarketer, who is trying hard to sell you something. +I have been talking to one guy in particular for several years, four years in fact, as he constantly reminds me. We met while I monitored a sex chat room for one of the big Internet Companies. So naturally the dialog in this room allowed us to exchange all kinds of intimate information easily. The sex chat rooms promoted all kinds of dialogs and the sharing of sexual information was in abundance. Nothing held back. We eventually reached a point in our relationship where it was decided we needed and wanted to take the next step. Of course we both came to this conclusion at different times, and not together. We did eventually share this very intimate act over the phone, and I have no regrets. The sharing of phone sex was something we stumbled on to very naturally. And with each call we share, we get more comfortable. And as with anything we do in life, there are always ways to improve or learn from others. I would like to share a few tips for those who might be considering this experience. And by no means am I an expert. I have learned from my own experience and from others. +One of the great things about talking online for many people is the lack of, or limited boundaries. There are no walls for most. You can be as honest as you want, or you can add spice and lots of flavorings. There are no rules. For most. Photos also fly over the Internet wires. One only hopes they are getting the realistic view of the one they have come to bond with. +For example, I had a friend who met and chatted frequently with a man who complained about his working 60+ hours a week in a huge law firm. He simply had no time for the simple pleasures in life, so he would log onto his computer at his office desk and she would entertain him, meeting some of his sexual needs. She was his only outlet, or so he said. When he did mail her a photo, it was a picture of a guy who obviously worked out many hours a week, and tanned in a salon as much. That relationship ended real quick. +My point here with this story, it’s truly more fun having the person’s image in your head when you are engaging in mutual masturbation over the phone. I like knowing what the guy looks like who is asking me to tell him how I would ‘ride’ him. I want to know it’s physically possible. This may not be a concern for those who are truly just there for the “getting off.” So if you think there’s a chance photos might be swapped, be honest. +Ok, so you have connected off-line, and things seem to be going well. Remember though, this was the person who made you hot through a computer screen. This was the person who typed out all those things that made you want to wrap your legs around the computer screen and pump it frantically. The person who told you what they wanted to do to you if only they had the chance. So now what? How do we go transition from extremely sexual and hot IM’s or emails, to simple conversations about the kids and the job, and then back to the hot dialog you want to happen over the phone? +It’s not always easy. I had a person call me once who jumped right into telling me how he wanted to pull off my panties and do me. I had just returned from doctors visit for a pap smear. Rule of thumb: Timing is everything. Make sure you both agree on the right time to call. It’s always nice to enjoy some simple chat at first too. Now I am not saying you have to discuss the dogs visit to the vet that am, but it’s always nice to see how their day has been. Setting the mood. It seems to me it’s a good thing to call when you are both relaxed. There is nothing fun about feeling stressed and now having to perform over the phone. +I can only imagine the poor person after a lengthy period of erotic dialog sitting on the other end of the phone thinking to themselves “I wish they would cum, because I have a dentist appointment in 20 minutes.” If you are uncomfortable being honest and saying ‘this is not going to happen’, then I would recommend ‘faking’ at this point. It saves you the aggravation of trying climax when you can’t, saves a few phone bill dollars, which in the end may help add more calls heading your way, and think of the poor person who really does have something to do. And for those of you who do have plans, you might want to think about making the call when you really have time. No one wants to hear, “I only have five minutes, lets go for it.” Quickies only work off-line. This is real life. People don’t always perform on command. +It’s always a good thing when you are comfortable using words that usually turn someone on. For example, you can’t go from asking him to “fuck your pussy” in online chat or emails, to “please put your penis in my vagina” when on the phone. It’s not going to work. You can’t land a fish with inadequate bait. If you have to, practice saying the words out loud. Be consistent in the dialog. Use the words that turn your partner on. Maybe there are some people who turn to gel over the word ‘vagina.’ Know what your phone sex partner likes. Don’t drag out whip and chains in your dialog if you know your partner is not into that. He or she might get frightened and hang up. ‘What could he be thinking, I never told him I liked threesomes!’ +It’s also a good idea for those of you who have more than one phone sex partner to keep track of who likes what. Keep a notebook by the phone if you have to. I wouldn’t want to be confused with your other lover who you are sharing a bi-sexual relationship with. Don’t ask me to do things with a penis I don’t have. It’s always good to allow your partner some insight into things you enjoy about sex before you share on the phone, and again honesty is key. How uncomfortable would your partner be if all along in on-line chats you were the romantic knight on the white horse, who whisked her away for a night of passion, and now suddenly the only way for you to achieve a climax is to tell her you want to tie her up and drip hot wax on her? +It’s also a pleasure when the dialog plays out what might really be happening or going on if you were both really together. And it helps if it’s realistic. It would be an instant turnoff if the dialog starts out slow, and within minutes you are now climaxing and your partner is still thinking about getting started. Unless of course you are both into rapid sex. You can’t possibly be able to suck on my toes and then my neck and then lick the back of my thighs all within seconds. I’ll get dizzy with all the rapid movement. Keep on track. +And lastly, unless you are in this just to get someone off, which is admiral to some, you have to be able to feel comfortable in being able to masturbate or at least touch yourself. Now you may laugh, but I have known people who truly had no idea. “He asked me to tell him if I was wet. How would I know, I was dressed and in my office.” I’m selfish. I want to share in the experience. +You have spent time online getting to know one another. Taking the next step, for some is a big step, for others a walk in the park. It’s an intimate act that two people can share, or more if you are doing a party line thing. Phone sex is a great way to act out mutually shared fantasies, or a way to introduce your partner to things that might turn you on. It does get easier as time passes, and with each call you share. Sharing a climax over the phone is a very cool thing. +Being able to get someone to this point through phone wires can be a challenge, but one worth the effort. Whatever your comfort level is, try to learn to enjoy it. Sometimes that’s all we get. Make it worth it. I can’t imagine life without it now. And one final thought, don’t forget to laugh when it’s appropriate. Sometimes a chuckle or two helps ease the tension that might exist." +627,Making the Chain,RedHairedandFriendly,How To,2012-01-25,2012-01-25,2022-01-04 08:36:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/making-the-chain,"A ""How To"" on the makings of a good chain story.","['Book', 'Chapters', 'Cheating', 'Flexibility', 'Glimpse', 'Peek', 'Politics', 'Review', 'Writing']",5.0,"**Author's Note:** _This is my opinion on how to create and operate a successful chain story. It's by no means the only way and it's not what you may find is your way, but for me it works. Enjoy and good luck if you do decide to one day construct your own chain story on Lit. ~ Red_ Some of you reading this may already know what a chain story is and just enjoy reading various types of literature. Others may be reading this submission because you like ""How To"" stories; while someone else may have read or is reading a chain story and are curious as to how to get started as well as how to participate. First, for those that don't know what a chain story on Literotica is, here is a link to their FAQ concerning the category: http://www.literotica.com/faq/05235347.shtml#05310792 - What is a chain story? How do I start one? Now that you've taken a moment to check out the above link, I'll continue on. I've be ""in charge"" of various chain stories here on Lit: _A Royal Sacrifice, Dry Valley, Laresa's World, On the Bus, Kismet, Enchanted Twelve_. I've been involved in two others, contributing 2 chapters each to: _AH Fantasies_ and _Hollyquirk Studios_. For my ""How to"" I am only going to discuss the chains I've been in charge of, not those that someone else started. Topics I will cover will include: Politics of a Chain, Schedules, Cheat Sheet/Cheat Post, and Two Types of Chains: Book & Glimpse. **Politics of a Chain:** Being the creator of a chain story, you need to decide how much of an iron fist you are going to wield. You have to go in knowing that you are working with a variety of writers. If you are fortunate, you'll not only have experienced Literotica authors, but also inexperienced ones. You need to determine if you want to read and approve every chapter before they are submitted to Lit. You have to be willing toprivately discuss concerns you have with the writer if they write something you deem questionable to the plot/character. Whether the writer is an old pro, or a newbie, you have to have the courage to say ""I need to know why you did this?"" or ""I don't see the character(s) doing that?"" With the above said, be prepared for them to come back to you and say, ""Well, this is how I want it and I am not going to change it."" Don't get too worried about this. Usually if someone tells you that, they have a good reason for it, and most likely, if you think about it, their reasoning is sound and plausible. Very rarely have I had to step in and say ""I'm sorry, you need to rethink this angle. I'm not seeing it."" As the creator of the chain, you aren't immune to the feedback of your co- authors. They have just as much right to say to you that something you wrote seems out of place. They are there for the same goal as you, to complete a chain worthy of attention. You have to listen and change if it is in the best interest of the chain. Remember, you turned this idea over to others because you either needed help or you wanted to see where others could take it. +There is going to be drama in the chain and I don't mean the story. You are going to offend people; writers are sensitive when it comes to their work. There may come a time when a writer drops out of your chain. There may also come a time when you need to ask someone to leave the chain. I have been very fortunate in regards to this and have not had to – yet. The ""bad"" experiences I've had have been few and far between. One writer felt slighted, and someone else felt they were being ""spoken"" ill of. Each situation was unique; you will have to determine how best to handle them as they arise. Don't go in with your fists raised, take time to evaluate all the angles before taking whatever necessary steps you feel will best suit the chain, the authors involved, and those that are waiting for their crack at the next chapter. Most importantly, remember, you cannot please everyone. **Schedules:** Literotica recommends you post a whole schedule as well as making your submission dates 4 days to 8 days apart. I will admit that almost all of the chapters, for the chains I've been in charge of, run approximately 2 weeks apart; sometimes longer. Scheduling is one of the hardest things to navigate in a chain, at least it is for me. The reason behind this is simple. Many writers are busy writing their own stories, as well as living their own lives. You must be willing to compromise on the schedule. Writers can trade dates or request to have an extension. The schedule is not written in stone and sometimes real life deals us a blow and we have to abandon ship. It may not be the other writers that disappear from a chain – it may be you. On a more personal note, I took time away from Lit. and left chains to dangle. I came back in October of 2011 with a fresh perspective and was able to complete one, and restart the second. I think the writers that were able to come back, did so because of two reasons: the story has the potential to be great and I was honest about my reasons for leaving. The one thing to keep in mind regarding this part of the ""How to"" is: Be flexible! **Cheat Sheet/Cheat Post** A cheat sheet or cheat post is very important in regards to the Book Style of a chain, which is covered later. This post is where you should place key details of the characters in the story. Such as hair color, eye color, demeanor, family history, current place in time in relation to the story/scene. You need this because each chapter written will most likely use characters from previous chapters. If you're writing about Afsoon's (Kismet) induction into General Risay's harem, you don't want to tell folks how special she was made to feel in chapter 3, when in chapter 1 she was abused and coerced into giving up her virginity. You don't want to create a personality that falters so radically that your readers are left scratching their heads, wondering ""where did that come from?"" So keep your cheat sheet, and make it available to all writers, by putting it in your thread. I usually put mine in the first post. Here is an example: http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=26080517&postcount=1 As you can see, I have a mini-cheat sheet for each family involved in Kismet. The other writers can come back in at any time and check to see if a character they are using is being used properly. Did they assign the right harem girl with the right Master? Did they keep true to the name of the Sultan's wife? What hair color did that one girl have? Did that character have any abnormalities or physical features I have to remain true to? These questions are very important in maintaining the story line. When creating and maintaining your cheat sheet, you need to make sure your other writers keep you informed of details that are being introduced in their chapter. You and every writer in the chain MUST read every chapter submitted. Also take notes of the chapters after they are submitted, or beforehand, in case a writer forgets to let you know what they think is key, or perhaps you see something you may want to use in a future chapter. Be diligent, no detail is too small to a devoted reader/fan. **Two Types of Chains:** Personally I believe there are two types of chain stories, a ""book"" type and a ""glimpse"". What you'll be reading next is just my personal take on the types of chains that are constructed. A ""Book"" chain story is one that has a beginning, middle and an end. The previous sections on politics, schedules, and cheat sheets/cheat posts are a must for the Book chain. A ""Glimpse"" chain, in my opinion, consists of the same idea but each chapter can stand alone and be read as individual stories. The common denominator of the work could be the location where things take place, or the people involved. Politics with this type of chain is almost non-existent, as are schedules and cheat sheets, though you must include a preliminary schedule per Literotica's chain story rules. ** _Book Style:_** _Dry Valley, Laresa's World, A Royal Sacrifice, Enchanted Twelve_ , and _Kismet_ are all book styles. For each one an idea came to me from out of nowhere or via a picture I saw, or a story I grew up with. The initial idea ran around in my head for several days, sometimes months before I realized I couldn't, or didn't, want to write the story alone. I wanted to see where others could take it. I'll give a quick review of each one and you can see why the topics above are so important. _Dry Valley_ : http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=16326192&postcount=1 is a modern day story revolving around a woman who has returned to the Texas town in which she grew up. There are two romances that blossom in this story, as well as the need to seek out and capture a villain and serve out some justice, Texas style. The writers ranged in experience and worked well together in order to create a tale that led Jessica through various obstacles before creating the ending we were all satisfied with. We had to recall details of many characters, referring back to the cheat sheet, which I often delete once a chain is complete (I will do my best to leave Kismet's alone because of this ""How to""). There were five authors involved. If my memory serves me correctly, scheduling wasn't too much of an issue for this chain. The first chapter was approved by Literotica in May of 2006 and the final on September 2006. There were a total of 20 chapters. _Laresa's World_ : http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=18762221&postcount=1 is the unique story of a genie that lives inside a ring, not a bottle. The cheat sheet was instrumental in the telling of Laresa, because we had to recall her Masters/Mistresses through all her ""life"". We needed to reach back into the stories and pull elements that would forever be woven into her story because as a genie, we writers took Laresa all over the world and all over time. Some of the authors chose to take Laresa on side journeys; she was that loved by all of us. The chain spun a web that reached beyond anything any of us imagined and even now some of us see sequels from the characters that Laresa interacted with, whether they were mortal or Jinn. Was there much drama on the chain? Not that I can recall, and scheduling for the most part I believe went very well. There were seven writers in the chain – one brand spanking new! The first chapter posted on August 29, 2006; the final chapter on May 2, 2007. It took 25 chapters to bring our Laresa to where she is now... waiting for you. _A Royal Sacrifice_ : http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=22369159&postcount=1 has that old medieval/magic mystery appeal. There is a village girl who becomes Queen, a handsome Prince with a tawdry past, a stuffy old prude of a Chancellor, and a devoted ladies maid. Heroes and heroines are made while trying to defeat the evil one – the Spectra that walks – Bagdemagus. The toughest part of this chain was the scheduling. Many of us were working on various projects as well as stumbling along in life. I was (still am) a fan of many of the writers in this chain and felt intimated at many points in the constructing of it. So much so that my mind blocked when the end came near and I offered to give someone else the opportunity to write the closing chapter. Kindly the group waited until I was ready. I gathered my thoughts and put the final dot on another wonderfully written tale that would have been nothing without the help of so many talented individuals. One writer, who I will not mention by name – because she asked her work to be pulled from the site – contributed three chapters to the chain. Sadly when her work disappeared, so did her chapters. Darkniciad and I went to work patching up the missing pieces. At the time that I am constructing this ""How To"" Dark has the final missing piece off to his editor and it will soon be gracing the pages of Lit. Pulled work/missing chapters – this too is an unexpected hiccup in a chain, but as the creator you have to decide whether to fix the holes, or ask others to help you fix them. Six writers and 23 chapters later we completed Evelyn's story. The chain's first appearance to Lit. was on May 24, 2007 and with all its ups and downs, as well as broken bits that are almost mended, the final chapter was placed on April 2010! (Granted that isn't counting chapters 8, 13, and 19 which we rewrote this year (2012))! Remember, I did mention flexibility for the schedule. _Enchanted Twelve_ : http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=24649288&postcount=1 is the most difficult chain story I've ever undertaken. It is a story revolving around 12 princesses, the men in their lives, the journey each one takes through a mystical portal and how they awaken to the truth of what is happening to them. Imagine chaos, but somewhat controlled and you have the makings of this chain story. The cheat sheet was handy, but not necessarily as important as all the other chains mentioned above, or Kismet below. With this chain the cheat sheet was there mainly for when the characters were used as ""blimps"" in another contributor's work. Scheduling was also hectic, folks dropped out very early on, people disappeared, and when the thread was restarted, it faltered. Most of this chain is complete, yet there are parts I can't fix, because of the type of chain it is. If you can recall the fairy tale "" _The Twelve Dancing Princesses_ "" then you can see why this would be a hard story to construct. Each writer took on the task of creating the story for one, two, or three sisters. They told one story within two worlds. We had a world similar to medieval times, where no magic existed and one where everything and everyone was a part of magic. There was a mystery to solve, romance to weave, battles to fight, corruption to unhinge. Every writer had a plot within a plot. Seven brave souls stepped into the chain and created a total of 28 chapters that took almost - to the date - 4 years to complete. The main plot of the story has been written under my pen name. The other side stories are very close to being done, and eagerly await your take on their happily ever after. _Kismet_ : http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=26080517&postcount=1 began when I noticed an avatar another Lister used on the boards. It is from the painting ""The Slave Market"" by Jean-Léon Gérôme dated around 1867. This chain is currently in production. It hit a snag from the beginning, but after the muse and life returned to a more normal state, things resumed. Afsoon is our main character. She is the daughter of an English woman and a powerful Sultan. She's been raised in high society, as well as knows her hand around weaponry. Unfortunately Afsoon's life is not one of glamour. She and her mother are sold into slavery and a web of political intrigue and romance begins. We are currently eight chapters deep into this chain, the ninth is about to be approved and posted to Lit. I do hope that you take time to enjoy the beginnings of a promising story. From all of those ""reviews"" above, you can see why a cheat sheet, a schedule, and the diplomacy of politics are a must. Much of the stories' plots revolve around key characters. How flexible your schedule is and how easily you can put your ego aside can make or break a book chain. ** _Glimpse Style:_** A glimpse is a peek at a much larger picture. Maybe you focus on a community and the workings within a city block. You move from house to house, never truly tying the neighbors together with anything more than one or two facts. Perhaps they all live on the 700 block of Dowling Street, in Manifesto, Nebraska. Perhaps all the characters are entwined only because they attend the same church, or confess to the same clergyman. An initial schedule needs to be posted, but it isn't detrimental that it be maintained. The cheat sheet can be tossed aside unless you make the specific instructions that all stories must take place within a room, or have a key element that must be carried through to every chapter. There really is no middle/beginning/end to a glimpse. It's opened ended. What about politics? There shouldn't be any. You don't have to read every story, because you most likely won't be using the other writers' characters. You still SHOULD read every story, because you asked these writers to tag along on the glimpse with you. _On the Bus_ : http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=17324261&postcount=1 is my only glimpse chain. It revolves around the travelers riding a cross-country bus. They stop at bus terminals; they stop in towns for breakfast, supper. There might be the occasional detour because of road construction, or maybe the bus breaks down and there is a layover while a new bus and driver are brought in. My two contributions were: _On the Bus: Naughty Whispers_ – a young girl is pleasured by a man she has enjoyed conversing with, only to find something different when her passion is sated. _On the Bus: Oral Concert_ \- is a masturbation story with a man taking his pleasures out on himself, while watching two girls enjoy each other. Since I wrote both of these stories I did link them together, but only with one line at the end of _Oral Concert_. As of this morning, five folks have contributed to the chain and seven glimpses have been written. So if you're looking for a quick way to write a fun ""stroke"" story on a bus, feel free to slip into the forum and post on the thread. Be sure to follow the guidelines as far as how to title your story and by all means share your idea! When the story posts let me know, send me a PM from the forums or a feedback email, so I can post a link to your story in the thread! In closing I just want to thank you for taking the time to read my take on constructing a good chain story. I hope you found it helpful and I look forward to seeing some of you on the boards, eager to start your own chain, or tag along with me. ~ Red" +628,Male Multiples,Goldeniangel,How To,2005-03-19,2005-03-19,2022-01-04 08:36:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/male-multiples,"Giving a guy a ""multiple"" orgasm.","['Back', 'Couple Inches', 'Head Times', 'Inches Back', 'Part Body', 'Penis Balls', 'Sensitive Spot', 'Sensitive Spots', 'Start Moving', 'Ups Downs']",4.56,"One day I was lucky enough to discover that although a guy cannot actually have multiple orgasms the way women do, you can draw out their pleasure so that it feels like their orgasm is continuing long after they've finished actually cumming. My guy considers this to be his own kind of multiple orgasm and one hell of a great treat when I do it. Now, the reason I don't do it all the time (although I'm sure that he would be very happy) is mostly because I usually don't get off while I'm concentrating so much of my attention on his pleasure. So of course it's something special rather than every day. Also, despite the fact that we're both in our early twenties (as in 20 and 21) and he's at his sexual peak for all intents and purposes, it takes him awhile to recover enough to get it back up afterwards. Which means that chances are, no sex for at least half an hour (about twice the normal amount of time it usually takes him). Since I prefer orgasms during sex to any other kind... well, you get the picture. +However, when I'm wanting to feel in power and in control, and absolutely drive him wild it is something that I take particular joy out of doing. +It starts off with teasing. Mostly in the fact that I have him lie on his back and then I start to touch all over his body, finding his most sensitive spots with my lips and fingers. Two notes for this part: I do not let him touch me back and my touch on him is extremely gentle. In fact, I'm barely touching him at all. I run my fingers in little trails, and I actually never touch such erogenous such as his nipples, earlobe, or his penis. Instead I trail all around them, working little circles around his chest and slowly working inwards, as soon as I get to his areola I start moving away again. Now, most guys do not have the discipline not to move while you're doing this to them, but I find it's a lot more fun if you don't tie him up and he'll willing lie there while you tease him. The reward is definitely worth the torment that you'll be putting him through. +After spending awhile moving so lightly around his erogenous zones, I start to press a little more firmly and I'll let my fingers actually trail over his nipples, penis and balls - but I pay NO SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THEM. Just trail them over like you are the rest of his body parts and move on, don't stay there. Trust me, it will drive him absolutely mad. +Now you may have two questions at this point: 1. Why am I spending so much time prepping him when he's already hard as a rock? and 2. What do I do when he keeps trying to grab me and throw me down? +Well the answer to #2 is to be very firm, if he knows that you want to be in control most guys will give up that control because they think it's damn sexy when the woman gets aggressive. So you must just force his hands down and go ""Stop it. I'M pleasuring YOU."" The reminder that you're in control and that you're doing it in order to give them a great experience often works. Otherwise, you might as well just let them throw you down and give you one helluva good fucking and then try again at another point when he has a little bit more of an idea of what to expect. Or, if he's willing, you can tie him up. +The answer to #1 is a little more complex... see when a guy is hard it's pretty much assumed that they just want to stick it in and go. And I've never seen anything to really contradict that. But, if you tease them and make them wait a little longer, then it becomes much more interesting for them. More blood rushes down to the penis, they become even more aroused, and their balls actually often tighten. It's a fallacy that women are the only ones whom foreplay can effect, if guys were able to hold out for longer during the foreplay they would find that it definitely increases their pleasure as well (and there are some smart fortunates who figured THAT out a long time ago!). +By not touching them firmly you're actually arousing them more because the areas that want it the most are now aching to be touched. When YOU decide, graze your fingers back up to his nipples (or your chosen sensitive spot since not all guy's nipples are the most sensitive part of their body) and become much firmer and rougher. Squeeze, lick, twist, and pay attention ONLY to that part of the body. Find another sensitive spot - my favorite one is the earlobe- nibble, bite down, suck - and if you can keep at least one of your hands busy with the first part. +AFTER you've become rougher with his sensitive spots only then move down to the penis. Take his balls, roll them with your fingers. Tug GENTLY, if he responds pleasurably you can tug a little harder but make sure that you don't hurt him. If you tug too hard on his balls, all your previous work will be completely undone. +Without giving any real stimulation to his actual penis, straddle him and rub his head up and down your slit. Lower yourself so that JUST the head pops in. Hold it and then pull yourself off. Repeat. Have just his head in you several times. Then, very slowly start moving down. Go a couple inches and come back up, go a couple inches and come back up. As slowly as you can work your way down to the base. When you get there, STOP AND HOLD IT. If you don't, he might very well just cum as soon as you start to move again. Give him a few seconds to get himself under control and bask in the incredible sanctuary that is your body. +Then do a usual fuck with you on top, ride him - but slowly. Just ups and downs, don't do anything else (yet). A few times move back up so that you're only fucking the first few inches of his penis before sliding all the way back down again. However, when you're doing this remember to stay in place for a couple seconds when you've slid all the way back down. Chances are he will be groaning and his eyes will be popping because he's trying really REALLY hard not to cum. +As soon as you think that he might be close to cumming, very very close - or your legs are just getting unbearable tired - go up and pop his head a few times in and out of your pussy. Then slam back down hard and go up and slam down a few times, very hard. THEN, actually grind your body on his. No more ups and downs, lean forward slightly and just rub your splayed pussy against his crotch, mostly back and forth with a little side to side. Circular motions are good too. Within a minute, he will be cumming - DO NOT STOP MOTION. As long as you keep up that motion you will keep up the orgasmic feeling for him. Clench down and move that butt girl. +I have actually gotten my fiancé to the point where he's begging me to stop because he can't take it anymore, and he's twitching and trying to pull me off but his arms have absolutely no strength. This is the REAL equivalent to fucking his brains out, because they are not working so well during this. Chances are, his movements underneath you will not stop until YOU stop. +Try to be nice and not draw it out for too long, eventually it does become painful (just as too many orgasms in a row can become excruciating for the ladies.). The feeling of power is great, and so is the way he'll look at you like you're a sex goddess afterwards. Just be careful not to touch his penis, it's going to be very sore and overly sensitive for the first few minutes.

Though many variations have been tried over the centuries that the illustrious instrument has been in use, three positions are most common. For the beginner just starting their instruction in their playing, we suggest using one of these three standard positions - standing, sitting, or reclining. + **Standing.** One of the traditional postures for playing the skin flute is standing. The legs attached to the flute can be positioned close together or spread apart to varying degrees. A skilled player will indicate their intentions and cause the amount of spread desired. This can be done either before the piece is begun, while the player is doing her initial setup, or, if the level of her skills allow it, done in increasing degrees as the performance progresses. +Instruments with legs responsive to the slightest touch, presenting the greatest amount of control to the performer, are valuable finds. As such, they are in high demand. + **Sitting.** Sitting is the most difficult of the three standard positions for skin flute performing. It is recommended that both standing and reclining positions be well practiced before attempting the sitting position. +The skin flute must be readily accessible to the performer's mouth and hands. For this reason, the chair cannot be allowed to prevent any access. The buttocks of the legs must be at the very front edge of the chair, leaving the skin flute itself exposed to all performing ministrations. Because this can lead to a sense of unbalance, it is suggested that the flute be supported by its upper limbs on the arm rests of the chair. Skin flutes vary in their preferences at this point, some responding better in an upright posture and others almost reclining in the chair. As long as the flute itself is unencumbered by the chair seat, either position for the appendages is satisfactory. + **Reclining.** Though the most expensive ""seats"" in any concert hall, the reclining position is often offered in an instructional venue. Allowing the most comfort and ease of access, this position is well favored. Lessons can be offered in longer time spans when the reclining position is chosen. There is occasionally an added fee for reclining lessons, to cover the cost of laundry. +This position is by far the easiest to achieve. No balancing of appendages is needed. The back board is simply laid flat on the surface provided, leaving the skin flute accessible to any movements the performer might feel inspired to make for the performance. + **Parts of the Skin Flute** +Each component of the skin flute is named. Knowing these terms will make your instruction more easily retained by you. Learn them well. It is suggested that handling each part as you read about it, will make a more lasting impression on your mind, facilitating memorization **.** + **Sacks.** Beginning at the bottom of the skin flute, you will notice two sacks. Touch them gently. Imagining caresses is the best way to achieve the appropriate amount of tenderness for the sacks. Some skin flutes have two distinct sacks; some have what looks like one larger sack. This is an unimportant variation in skin flute manufacture. The delicate equipment within the sacks allows the skin flute its functioning. With very gentle squeezes, you can feel the globes held within the sacks. Handle them carefully at all times. +Besides containing crucial, yet fragile, equipment, the sacks are nonetheless employed during performance. Methods of touch will be covered in the section on performance. For now, become acquainted with the softness of the sacks' covering, its looseness and flexibility, by gently manipulating them with your fingers. Because the sacks are waterproof, you can feel free to use your mouth, lips, and tongue on them, also. It is recommended that you become acquainted with the exact feel of your skin flute by trying all of these methods. + **Base.** You will notice a distinct change from the sacks to the base of the shaft. The place of joining can be delicate and sensitive. Feel it with your fingertips, running them all around the base. Additional experimentation with your mouth, and especially with the extensive reach of your tongue, is recommended here, too. + **Shaft.** The shaft of the skin flute is the largest component. It is also the most variable. If your skin flute currently is in a relaxed state, you'll note its softness and pliability. Its length is of no consequence, as outstanding performances have been achieved by skin flutes of only 2 inches in length. Any additional length is merely at the manufacturer's discretion. +If you have completed the exercises recommended above, getting thoroughly acquainted with the characteristics of your skin flute's sacks and base, it is highly likely that the shaft is no longer in a relaxed state. This is to be expected and is no cause for concern. The aroused shaft will vary from barely being aroused to extreme, complete arousal. The degree of stiffness and angle of rising will vary proportionally. As a performer, you will be developing the skills to attain the fullest arousal possible, including methods of perpetuating the arousal or culminating it on command. Thus the need for practice, practice, practice. + **Head.** At the end of the shaft, you'll notice a demarcation line, a ridge encircling the shaft. This area, exquisite in its sensitivities, is called the head. Skin flutes come in at least two varieties - without or without a second covering of skin over the head. Both models offer advantages and disadvantages, and a competent performer can extract a fine performance from either one. Take a moment to explore which model you have and become thoroughly accustomed to its texture and level of sensitivity. +Because of the head's sensitivity, even if your skin flute has not caused sounds yet, this may be the point where you will begin to hear the sounds that will become the basis for your performances. Listen closely to these sounds. Note their relation to the touches you're applying to the head. Learn these relationships. See if you can recreate certain touches and get an equal recreation in sound. +Remembering how to get the desired sounds brings us to the next section of this manual. + **Practicing Techniques** + **Basic Warm-ups** +Warming up for playing the skin flute involves both the player and the flute. Each must be properly warmed up for a performance to be shared. + **Warming up the Player** +Consider for a moment what dexterity you will need during your performance. Keeping these requirements in mind, you will easily remember the benefits of properly warming up beforehand. + **Hands.** Your hands will be doing various manipulations. A range of touches from the most gentle of caresses to the firmness of encircling strokes requires adept hands. And warm ones. The same methods you use in other aspects of life can be used here. Briskly rubbing your hands together. Wearing gloves until time to begin touching. Check the temperature of the room and assure that it is sufficient for both your warmth and that of your skin flute. +Test your hands' warmth on the appendages of the flute first. Run your hands up and down the length of the back board, the upper and lower appendages, and any other area you can reach. Try various strengths of rubbing and stroking. Note the reaction. If more heat seems desirable, ensure its attainment. + **Lips.** Fortunately, being on the face, lips usually have good circulation and are generally warm in temperature. The warm up of the lips, then, concentrates more on dexterity and strength. +1) Run your tongue around your lips, moistening them well. Repeat this procedure at any time during warm ups or performances. The lubricant provided by moist lips is crucial to a successful performance. +2) Stretch all the muscles in your lips and tongue, increasing their flexibility. +3) Test the lips. Start at some distance from the flute part of your skin flute. Begin placing kisses in a series. You can vary the point at which you start on any given practice. The beginning point is not the concern. The important point is to have your lips well warmed up by the time you start playing on the flute itself. +As your practices accumulate, you will notice some areas on your instrument that cause responses in your skin flute. The neck and ears are common places to practice placing many kisses and noting the strength of the reactions caused. Some of the more adventuresome performers can actually use these places in addition to the skin flute itself to get the sounds for the music! Keep such experiments in sound in mind as you warm up your flute each day. You never know when you might want to use a warm up technique as a performing technique. +4) Test the tongue. A traditional place to test your tongue's adaptability is on the nipples. You are not limited to these as testing points, by any means. Feel free to test your tongue touches and movements on any area of the skin flute's supports. But, as a beginner, these are the instructions for tongue warm ups on nipples. +Continue your kisses, gradually causing them to approach more and more closely to a nipple. (No, it makes no difference whether you start on the right or the left. It is generally recommended, however, that you treat each one in an equal manner.) Once taking a nipple into your mouth, and kissing it, you can choose the amount of suction based on your inclination at the time. Holding the nipple within your mouth, touch its tip with your tongue. Because this is part of your practice, choose different speeds and strengths for your touches. You can try out these variations on different days, or try several in one day. Creativity is a large part of a good skin flute performance. Let your talents create as they will! +Touching the nipple with just your tongue, and no lip involvement is also possible. Licking it, tickling it, even just blowing gently across its raised tip, all these and many more are possibilities. Let your creative forces out for some exercise." +630,Manual Stimulation for Dummies,Illusionz,How To,2005-05-24,2005-05-24,2022-01-04 08:36:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/manual-stimulation-for-dummies,A simple guide to the female hand job for men.,"['Clit', 'Cum', 'Female', 'Finger', 'Orgasm', 'Pussy']",4.35,"Experience can probably help all men out there in pleasing their woman, but first you must understand the terminology of the female body. +Vagina - Generally referred to as either the cunt or ""the hole,"" the portion of the female genitalia that protrudes inside of the body. +Labia - Generally referred to as the lips, the protective cover to the vaginal opening. +Vulva - Generally referred to as the pussy, the outward visible portion of the female genitalia. +Clitoris - Generally referred to as the clit, the small button-like portion of the vulva from which most stimulation is beneficial. +Clitoral ""hood"" - Generally referred to simply as ""the hood,"" the portion of the vulva that covers the clitoris, formed by the joining of the inner and outer labia. +With a willing partner, begin slowly. Foreplay is the key here. Start with the standard kissing, sucking the neck/earlobes, etc. Always be sure to ask your partner what their special place is. Some women love having their necks kissed, some despise it; some women love having their earlobes nibbled or sucked, others despise it. It is important to let her tell YOU what feels good. +Once it has been established that she is ready, you can move to the next step: the nipples. Many women love having their nipples sucked, but some prefer for their man to just play with them with their hands. Again, find out what is most arousing to her and go that route. Communication is the key. +Well, now you're there. She wants to cum and she wants to cum NOW. This is NOT the time to whisper in her ear ""I'd really like it if you'd suck my dick."" This will leave you with blue balls and her masturbating at home, thinking about some OTHER guy. But you're not ready to go down on her. What else is there to do? Take her in your left arm (right arm for you lefties out there) and hold her close. As she becomes ready, slip your hand into her panties. And, guys, make sure you have manicured fingernails. Nothing will turn a girl off more than the feel of a hang-nail dragging across her most sensitive body parts. Also be sure your hands are clean. Those spicy tacos you ate before you picked her up will ruin your chances of getting this far ever again. So, hands washed and manicured, you're ready to go. With your right hand (left for the lefties, of course), slide down between her legs until you find a warm, moist slit. You are now hopefully touching her vulva, trying to get your fingers between her labia. Do this cautiously, as some women will have a tendency to try to close their legs if you are going too fast. Once you slide your fingers past her labia, you should feel the vaginal opening as wet and hot. If it is not, you will be best suited to remove your hand and lick your fingers. +Now that a bit of lubrication has been established, insert your finger into her vagina. Just one to start. No woman likes to be bombarded by too many fingers stretching her too quickly. If you feel that there is plenty of room for another finger, feel free to attempt it, but if she winces, stick to just one finger. Slowly insert and withdraw your finger(s), letting her get wetter and hotter while you continue to kiss/suck/nibble on her special spot. When she begins to moan, you have been given a cue to move on. +At this point, the move you make will set the example for how your sexual relationship will continue. Remember, chivalry is something that most women consider to be a dead art. Prover her wrong. Remove your now moistened finger and place on her clitoral hood. Trust me, it feels like a button. Hopefully you were smart enough to have used your middle finger to have stimulated her already. If not, skip back and insert your middle finger to get it moistened as well. I say this because most people can place more pressure on the index finger than on the middle finger, which will prove beneficial in just a few minutes. Begin to slowly massage her clitoris with your middle finger. Notice how she writhes in your free arm. Do not, under any circumstance, remove this arm from around her shoulders/body. No matter what she tells you, she likes the closeness of being held. It makes her feel more loved. Continue kissing/sucking/nibbling her special spot. You'll know when it's time to stop. Gently increase your speed on her clitoris, applying just a little more pressure, but not enough to hurt yourself or make her uncomfortable. Flexibility will be a big help by now. She should be getting close and, with any luck, beginning to buck her hips. +If she's vocal, you'll know when the time is right. If she isn't vocal, you'll have to read her face. As she begins to enter her climax, swiftly change fingers, switching now to your index finger. Remember what I said about pressure? You'll understand in just a moment. By now, she'll probably be ready for you to break your lips away from her and let her enjoy what is happening. Pull her as close to your body as you can and apply a decent amount of pressure to her clitoris. If you're skilled enough, you should be able to pull her clitoral hood over her clitoris without missing a beat. Rub her bare clitoris with speed and pressure, allowing her to cum on your hand. Continue with this pressure and speed until she tells you to stop, clasps her legs, or, if you're a real stud, passes out. Slow your movement and lessen the pressure, but DO NOT STOP. Stopping will only frustrate her due to the orgasm ending TOO quickly. Resume your previous kissing/sucking/nibbling. She will probably be panting and gasping for air. If you love her, tell her so. If not, don't lie to her. Women can be emotionally vulnerable after an orgasm. And hopefully you've just given her the best orgasm of her life. +Repeat as needed. An estimated 98% of women do not orgasm through penetration alone. After she has allowed you to make love with her, show her that you care about her needs as well and give her a manual orgasm. You'll have her hooked." +631,The Marble Game,averagecouple,How To,2010-04-04,2010-04-04,2022-01-04 08:40:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-marble-game,One couples variation of the marble game.,"['Analingus', 'Control', 'Masturbation', 'Orgasm Denial']",3.98,"Preface: +Here is a game my wife and I have come to enjoy. It is our modification of the ""marble game"" (with many thanks to all of the people posting there own versions in the past). Ours incorporates many of the fetishes that both my wife and I share and enjoy (mostly with her being dominant) as well as more mundane choices, made more exciting by being part of this game. We have found this to be an interesting/exciting way of acting upon ""kinky"" sex in a form she likes and when she feels she wants it. +General description of the game- +We use the flattened, colored marbles you can get at any craft store. There are 6 green, 5 blue, 5 yellow, 3 red and 1 brown. The bottoms are marked with a letter code. We have a wooden box and any night my wife feels the desire to initiate the game, she will mention to me to ""check the box"". If I would prefer not to play for that evening (I am not feeling well or am overly tired, for example) I will say so but not peek in the box-- thereby allowing her to keep what her interest for that evening was to herself. +If I ""accept"" her offer for a round of the game I will check the box for what to expect. One ""action"" marble and, at her discretion, possibly a red and/or brown ""JOKER"" marble (see below) will be in there when I look. Listed below are what the marbles signify in our game. Of Note-- regardless of what happens with me, she ALWAYS gets to have at least one orgasm. +We have a leather bag containing the following for her to choose from-- +GREEN MARBLES (6): +Straight ""her on top"" sex; I orgasm inside her. +Straight 'her on the bottom"" sex; I orgasm inside her. +Oral sex for her; I masturbate with her watching. +Oral sex for her; Oral sex for me. +I Rub her to orgasm; She rubs me to orgasm. +Oral sex for her; Oral sex for me +BLUE MARBLES (5): +Oral sex for her + she masturbates for the second orgasm (a way of her choosing while I watch); I masturbate with her watching. +Oral sex for her + ""her on top"" sex; I orgasm inside her. +Oral sex for her + ""her on the bottom"" sex; I orgasm inside her. +She will masturbate in a way to her choosing, under the covers while I watch (but am denied seeing her body!!); I masturbate while she ignores me (she usually will roll over on her side in bed, facing away from me) +She will masturbate in a way to her choosing, with me standing at the foot of the bed facing away from her (It drives me crazy to only hear but not see!!); I masturbate facing the corner and must dine afterward as she watches (now fully dressed, of course). +RED MARBLES (3): +There are three red marbles to be used at her discretion (but must all be used during the course of the game). This counteracts my orgasm for that night. She receives the pleasure listed for the green or blue marble but I am denied an orgasm for the night (although she teases me and has me rub myself to the frustrating edge!). So simply, of the 11 marbles (nights) listed above I am assured to be denied an orgasm 3 times (yikes!) +BROWN MARBLE: +There is one brown marble which can be used as often as my wife likes. Her pleasure with this choice-- Analingus, freshly showered or otherwise. This may not be your cup of tea but this is a very submissive feeling for me and she enjoys the pleasure and power. Enough said. +YELLOW MARBLES (5): +The Dreaded yellow marbles (my wife loves them!) are straight forward-- My wife enjoys her orgasm, determined by the listed action, and I roll the dice! After she orgasms, she will decide which number(s) I must roll in order to have an orgasm that night (using 1 six sided die). A bum roll and I am denied for that evening. Depending upon her mood, it may be a single number or up to a maximum of 3 (50% chance). +A) Oral sex for her + she masturbates for the second orgasm (a way of her choosing while I watch); I masturbate with her watching. +B) Oral sex for her + ""her on top"" sex; I orgasm inside her. +C) Oral sex for her + ""her on the bottom"" sex; I orgasm inside her. +D) She will masturbate in a way to her choosing, under the covers while I watch (but am denied seeing her body!!); I masturbate while she ignores me (she usually will roll over on her side in bed, facing away from me) +E) She will masturbate in a way to her choosing, with me standing at the foot of the bed facing away from her (It drives me crazy to only hear but not see!!); I masturbate facing the corner ad must dine afterward as she watches (now fully dressed, of course). +To keep it interesting, all action marbles and red marbles must be used and removed from the bag, until all are gone, and the game restarts. So with the 16 action marbles I will be denied 3 times (red marbles) and up to an additional 5 times (yellow ""roll the dice"" marbles. So I will be able to orgasm at least 50% of the evenings, or um, ONLY 50%. +One additional aspect of our game: My wife may have additional orgasms any night after first completing the listed orgasm on the marble. We also add a twist several mornings a week (usually the night after a game session)-- I perform oral sex on her before I shower for work and she happily drifts back to sleep.... +Any comments, suggestions or feedback is welcome.

You spend the night in childish flirtations and innuendo and finally both have to admit that the chemistry is there and go home together for a night of wild abandonment. +After a quick morning romp and you're out of there, on your way to work. What happens next is totally dependent on whether one or both of you are looking for a relationship and what type of relationship that might be. Sure you don't have to make a life decision based on one night but whether there is a second date or not is definitely in both of your minds. +Take for example the newsflash that apparently Pippa Middleton isn't ""marriage material"". According to her former boyfriend Alex Loudon (and the ever- reliable Murdoch Media Corporation), this Middleton sister isn't the type of girl a man wants to marry or spend the rest of his life with. For a man to say this about one of the most eligible women on the planet seems rather at odds with what we've long been hearing: that Pippa is different; a breath of fresh air from the bimboesque types; someone special, someone classy. Maybe that isn't his thing, but from what I know, that is exactly the type that men usually see as long term relationship material, if not marriage material. +But, with the media circus surrounding her, being in the media spotlight is apparently not something Loudon wants to get involved with for the long term. So herein lies the question: what type of women are unsuitable to marry? Is it in the eye of the beholder? Or is there a general rule? And, more importantly, what type of man should one refrain from clinging on to as if they're the last eligible man on the planet? +The other day I came across an article in the _Huffington Post_ , by Chiara Atik, which claimed that when it comes to the flip side - women looking for men who are indeed ""marriage material"" - there are seven types of men who definitely do not fall into this category. +While my recent dating experiences may be quite different from that of my friends, being that I am submissive, I rather liked this turn-about on men, women are so readily criticised in the media as too plain, too big, too mousy, too ballsy, too, too, too. It seemed that similar stereotypes were being placed on the other gender as well in more recent times. While this type of stereotyping had less to do with looks than personality it boiled down to the same thing: Potential as a mate for life. +Let's face it, when a woman or a man for that matter turns thirty or even forty thinking they are never going to find that special someone to settle down with, let alone share a seafood platter for two with, the rose coloured glasses become a permanent fixture in their outlook on potential partners. Often the relationships they pursue have their partners meeting very few of their wants and needs in a life partner and ending up pear shaped when the rose coloured glasses eventually lose their power. +I am thinking of my best friend as I write this, who, feeling like she was starting to dig at the bottom of the barrel, and letting anything with male anatomy into her life, giving them not only second chances but third and fourth chances, when they clearly didn't deserve it because she felt she couldn't be so picky anymore! +So, in an attempt to warn the women who are feeling a bit desperate (and spark some interesting comments), here are the seven examples of men who won't make you happy (from that news article by Atik), with my comments and thoughts below. See what you think ... +* + **""The Man Who Hates His Job""** +It's true that the job maketh the man. And when a man is unhappy in his job, career path or with the amount of money he's earning, things aren't going to be pretty when it comes to your burgeoning romantic relationship. Either he won't want to commit any time soon (or at least till he gets things sorted out at work) or, when he's had a bad day (which will be more often than not), he'll take out his aggression on you. On the other hand, a little support, encouragement and inspiration from a girlfriend or partner can go a long way, if you can stand being in the line of fire ... + **""The Man Who's Obsessed With His Mother""** +Atik says that there isn't enough room in a relationship for you, him and his mother, and yet I've dated a few men who are indeed obsessed with their mothers and, in my books, there's not really anything too wrong about this. I think the big problem is when the mothers are obsessed with their sons. +There are many surveys available online that will show that this is more common than you think. When it comes to these types of MILs, I'm sure you know the drill: no woman (including you) is ever going to be good enough for their precious son. Everything from the furniture in your house to your future kids' names will need to be approved, changed and manipulated by her, and she will be hell bent on making your life a living hell. +As long as your man stands up to his mother and makes you his priority, there's nothing much to fear about this. It really is more common than you think. + **""The Man Who Needs To Be Admired""** +Having dated my fair share of men who ""need"" to be admired by every woman on the planet -- whether it be the waitress, his hot work colleague, his ex- girlfriend and any woman really -- I know all too well that this means that you will be always left feeling like second best and of little significance in his life. He's got more women on his speed dial than Charlie Sheen and, while he's busy flirting with the waitress/bar tender/shop assistant, you're left sitting there with a look of chagrin and resentment on your face. +Which is all fine and good, especially considering this type of man doesn't usually cheat on you. The trouble is these sorts of men never change. So unless you want to be constantly faced with competition who may want to attempt to put a wedge in your relationship, you might want to find someone who is a little less desperate for so much attention. + **""The Man Who Has Friends You Never Meet""** +While I've yet to date a man who refuses to introduce me to his friends, I can see how this might be a man you do not want to fall in love with. I often meet a man's friends pretty early on to gauge whether or not a) he's a good guy and b) if they are aware that I'm even in the picture. But him never letting you meet his friends? Now that's just plain creepy. +I would even go so far as to suggest that you have let yourself become a mistress unknowingly. Be prepared to sneak around for your entire relationship. Or worse yet suffer the indignity of finding out he is embarrassed to admit he is dating you. If he can't introduce you to his friends, or family, I would suggest you run away as fast as you can. Or make peace with the fact that you can never truly be a part of his life in its entirety. + **""The Man Who Wants To Rescue You""** +I disagree. Every bloke likes to be the knight in shining armour and to be the one to ""rescue"" their girlfriend should she run into trouble. It's in a man's DNA. And if a man isn't ready to step up and help out when he's needed, he's not worth his testosterone. +As with all things though there are limits, and I understand the average woman's aversion to finding that their independence has been curtailed in favour of a partner who knows best. Personally, as a submissive I don't mind this but I realise it is not in everyone's life path. + **""The Man Who Puts Work First""** +This one can definitely be a bit of an issue but be aware that it's all about timing. If he's at the beginning of his career and he's working his way up the corporate ladder, good for him! Be supportive, enjoy it and revel in his success alongside him. If, on the other hand, he's nowhere near at the beginning of his career and he's married to his work with no time to court you, date you or help you when you're in need, you might want to rethink whether this is really the right relationship for you. +Every woman needs to feel that they are the priority for their man (within reason). Having him taken away from you by his work can be worse than him having a mistress that you would be fully justified in hating, and ranting and raving over, his career on the other hand is something you should be able to support without resenting the amount of time it takes from your relationship. + **""The Man Who Can't Believe You Picked Him""** +I love this sort of man! True, sometimes their insecurities can get in the way of them having a good time, but wouldn't you rather be with a man who adored and appreciated you than one who had every other option under the sun and couldn't give two hoots about the fact that he's with you? +The man you're with should think you're the ultimate catch and thank his lucky stars every day that he's caught a woman as wonderful as you. And if he turns around and tells you that you're not ""relationship/marriage material"", forget him. He simply wasn't the right man for you in the first place ... I know that's easier said than done but you have to ask yourself why would you waste time or energy on someone who never saw you as a long term prospect. +***** +Whether you are looking for a partner who will treat you as an equal, or whether you are dominant or submissive, you deserve to find someone who wants to make you his priority in their life. Atik put forward that the above seven types of men should be avoided at all costs, if it is a long term relationship you are after.

I'm assuming you're a lot like me. You're an older, happily married man who has been curious about sucking cock for a while. You want to meet another man to fulfill this growing need and desire, but you're unsure about how to arrange it, where to meet, and how to prepare. I've spend _years_ dreaming and fantasizing about sucking cock for the very first time, and I've come up with the steps that I would perform prior to tasting another man's cum. I hope you find this guide helpful in achieving this objective, too. + **The Candidate.** I'm sure you're eager to suck cock, and may be willing to suck just any cock or the first one that comes along. _Don't!_ What I would recommend is that you find another married man, who is in the same situation - happily married, interested in sucking cock or having his cock sucked, and ready to follow through on doing it. A married man has just as much to lose as you do. You're less likely to be blackmailed or assaulted (usually) and the risk of disease is much lower especially if he hasn't done this before and has been faithful to his wife. I'm not trying to advocate discriminating against other men, but as far as your safety and security, another married man is a much more appealing candidate. Finding him, however, is the hardest part and beyond the scope of this article. + **Meet First.** There are many reasons to meet your ""partner"" ahead of time. He may be weird. He may not have good hygiene, have an unappealing body type, or may have misrepresented himself online. The ideal scenario is to meet in a public location, have lunch together, and discuss topics like two ordinary men would. Discovering that you have similar interests and could potentially be friends is like hitting the jackpot. It provides the perfect cover going forward if you decide to repeat your activities in the future. If you're friends, your wife is less likely to suspect that you're sucking his cock when you're together. It's also worth emphasizing that you can rule him out when you meet him. You may not ""click"" together, or you may just get a bad vibe off of him. Ensure that he agrees to this beforehand, that either one of you can walk away for any reason, or even _no_ reason after meeting in person. + **Discuss Expectations.** You've fantasized about this forever, so make sure you're both on the same page. You might want him to aggressively fuck your mouth, call you a dirty cocksucker, or have other details in your head. Personally, I want the man to just stand or sit back while I'm on my knees pleasuring him, with his moans and sighs only audible, perhaps his hand on the back of my neck holding me in place. Make sure he knows what you want, but find out what he wants as well. Given this example, a man who wants to fuck my mouth, degrade me, and choke me with his long cock would be eliminated as a potential object of my oral pleasure. +Most men have the post-orgasm aversion to cum. Make sure that if you expect to have your cock sucked afterward, that he will not become apprehensive and get the urge to flee the scene. Aversion is real, but can be overcome by commitment and the erotic nature of the situation. +Discuss grooming habits, such as if you prefer him to be as hairless down there as possible - assuming this won't arouse suspicion in his wife. Consider abstaining from sex and/or ejaculation for several days prior to the event to maximize the amount of semen ejaculated. Also consider asking him to drink pineapple juice a few hours before the event! + **The Venue.** Many lives and marriages have been destroyed because men haven't planned accordingly. They perform fellatio in public, in an adult theater, or in plain view in their car and are seen by someone. You can be arrested, and in some locations labeled a sex offender if the act is in plain view. Just don't do it. Hotels are also a risky choice. There is surveillence. Paying with a credit card leaves a paper trail that a wife can discover. That said, it's a better choice than in public or plain sight. +I recomment renting a self-storage unit, especially one of the climate controlled ones. They're not very expensive, and you can justify it to your wife by telling her you need to store boxes, equipment, or other possessions to free up storage space at home. They're private, the door can be closed, and going to one with another man is less likely to arouse suspicion. It also provides an excuse for where to go and why, and if your spouse uses a tracking app with her phone she'll see you're exactly where you said you would be. + **Preparation.** Make sure the storage unit is ready for your activity. Consider having a folding lawn chair if he expects to be sitting down while you suck him. The outdoor cushions for patio furniture are also good for kneeling on due to their padding. If that's not feasible, make sure you have a towel that can be folded to provide comfort on the concrete floor. It's also advisable to have a box with towels, washcloths, mouthwash, and bottled water that can be used to clean yourself up. The idea is to leave no evidence, and to not have the smell of cum on your breath when you go home to your wife. +I would also recommend that you both disrobe completely. Put your clothes to the side. They won't get dirty but most importantly they won't be stained by an errant shot of semen that might fly through the air, etc. +One final note on preparation. I've tasted and consumed my own cum since I was a teen. I enjoy the taste. I also enjoy swallowing it. Make sure you have swallowed your own semen so that you know how it feels going down your throat. It causes somewhat of a burning sensation. Also, some women become nauseated and even throw up when it hits their stomach. I'm not saying it will happen to you, but it's probably best to ensure you don't have a similar reaction. + **Suck That Cock.** A guide on _How to Give the Perfect Blowjob_ is way beyond the scope of this article. You've fantasized about this for years. You know what feels good when your own cock is licked and sucked. You've watched enough porn and seen women skillfully performing fellatio, hungrily eating cum, and wished you were them. Fulfill your desire. Make a life-long memory, and give him the best head of his life so that he will remember the event even when he's old and senile! +Remember, some men can't achieve orgasm via fellatio alone. He may want to jack off and watch himself ejaculate into your mouth. The only thing I would strongly suggest is to commit yourself to swallowing. Consume and eliminate the evidence. No body shots. No facials. Don't let it drip on the floor or get on your clothing. Cum causes bad stains that are difficult to get out, and this potentially puts you at risk of being discovered by your wife. + **Post-Orgasm.** You've sucked your first cock. The taste and smell of another man's semen is on your breath, and you feel the warmth of it in your stomach. You're officially a cocksucker. Whether he's standing or sitting reclined in a lawn chair, allow him to enjoy the moments that follow his orgasm. Lick and suck his balls for a while. As his cock softens, the remnants of semen in his urethra will appear as a pearlescent dollop at the tip of his cock. Lick it off. Allow him to rest. This ""after care"" will also serve to arouse him once again. Perhaps he will be able to feed you another load. More importantly, the arousal will allow him to overcome any aversion or doubt in his mind and proceed to sucking your cock if that's the goal. +Clean up. Use mouthwash. Wipe the sheen of sweat from your bodies. Dress, perhaps shake hands, and return to everyday life knowing that you've achieved your objective of sucking cock and tasting another man's cum. + **Conclusion.** I hope you find this article helpful. I also hope you fulfill your desire to suck cock and taste another man's seed. An ideal situation for me would be to meet a new friend, to be able to share our most forbidden sexual thoughts and fantasies, and to be around each other with our wives while they are completely oblivious that we suck each other's cocks at every possible opportunity." +634,A Married Man's Guide to Sex,Bakeboss,How To,2009-11-08,2009-11-08,2022-01-04 08:25:15,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-married-mans-guide-to-sex,A primer we husbands need.,"['Happy Marriage', 'Humor']",3.95,"I realize that as a man with limited sexual knowledge I shouldn't be giving advice on such matters. However as a husband to two women (not at the same time, thank you very much) I do feel I can offer some guidance on this subject. +The men I'm trying to help are the husbands of the world. As far as you men who have girlfriends, or fiancés or even those 'living in sin' as my mother use to say, you may want to keep this text for future reference as your present situation is completely different from ours. For you men are still 'single' by definition and as long as you haven't 'bought the cow', (another saying from my mother) you are probably still getting free 'milk' on a regular basis. Although you 'single men won't believe this at this time but once you she gets you to put that ring on her finger regular sex is a thing of the past. +To most married men the question of the ages is not how do we achieve world peace, but what happened to that wild sex freak that I married. It's almost a guarantee that all that sex on the beach and blow-jobs as you drive down the freeway, in fact just about any blow-jobs disappear once your wild girl friend becomes a proper wife. It's just a fact of life that a woman who has to wash your dirty underwear has no desire to suck your cock. +Thus, the question is how you convince your wife to have sex. Many feel that liquor relaxes the wife and loosens her libido enough so she'll have sex with you. Although I agree with this, it is a slippery slope and needs careful measurement because just enough and it's loving all night. Yet just one once too much and you have a sleeping wife or worse one who's throwing up all night. As much as wine is all right whine is not. You may whine and you might beg but all you're doing is losing what little respect you have left and believe me you're still not getting any. Bringing your wife flowers is nice but it is nothing but a gesture and unless she is already in the mood, it's not going to get you laid. +So what do you need to do to get some? Believe me there's no I-phone app although it would make a nice one. One way to get her in the mood is to be the man of the house. I'm not talking about 'bring me a beer bitch' man of the house but if you're doing your fair share of the chores, I'm telling you that that will impress any woman. If she suddenly finds the trash has been dumped without asking or maybe the sink is clean when she walks into the kitchen it will make your wife's panties wet. Face it men, most of us are helpless around the house, we ruin laundry and even we won't eat half of the food we prepare so if there's something we can accomplish to help, we need to do and do it often. Don't wait to be asked because it's the volunteering that's the Aphrodisiac not the chore itself. +Do you remember what you had to go through to pick up women when you were single? Try a little of that finesse on your spouse, she may be your wife but she still likes to hear she looks pretty in that dress or maybe a 'I like your hair that way.' How much persiflage did you listen to with that fake interested smile of yours still knowing the whole time that you didn't have a prayer of getting laid. Well it kind of like that with your wife except you have a better chance of scoring by listening to her frivolous banter. +Now as to what to do once you get your better half in the mood. I can't believe I'd need to tell a married man to make sure his wife gets hers too. I mean how many husbands are left out there who don't understand that his wife also needs to get off. Each wife is different so there is no way to tell you how but you need to understand that if she isn't enjoying sex then she's going to be harder to convince to have sex. Just because you may have to work a little harder doesn't matter, she still deserves an orgasm at least as much as you and it is up to you to insure she has one. +As most of you realize this piece is written tongue in cheek, and yet it is still based mostly in fact and if taken as such it can be used as a primer for all of us. Fellow husbands let us keep in mind as we plod along in life with our only goal just to keep our noses above water, that to think of your life mate. Just remember that even the slightest kindness can improve her day and if you can improve her day, she just might make you night." +635,The Massage Game,Holophernes,How To,2020-05-18,2020-05-18,2022-01-04 08:40:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-massage-game,A game to play.,"['Adult Game', 'Erotic Games', 'Game']",4.08,"The Massage Game +A game for friends and close family to play. +This game is included more than once in the series of stories about 'Mr D' by the author on literotica.com. +The author reserves the right to be acknowledged as the author and creator of this game. +© 2020 Holophernes. +Equipment. +•Necessary: +oSpinners, or dice, or some form of making random directions in the game. Dice with different number of faces are available from many game stores. A standard six sided die will work for the massage choices. For numbers of participants other than six some other form of random allocation is needed. +oTimer (kitchen timer or phone app or whatever you choose). +•Suggested: +oTowels. +oMassage oil. +oRefreshments. +Rules. +These rules are guidelines. The best way to ensure this goes well is to get every participant to agree to 'the rules'. If really concerned you could produce a list which each person signs, but that may remove the fun from the game. +•No sex. You may need to define what this means. Is it limited to no 'penetrative sex' or does it include no oral sex? You need to all agree and be clear. +•No forfeiting. What the random indicators spin up must happen, if you want to continue the game, for both the giver and the receiver of the massage.

No 'going off to a bedroom or elsewhere'. +•No restrictions (apart from the general 'no sex') on what happens among the 'observers' while the massage is being given, but it should be both discreet and not distract from the main action. +•For the first round only hands can be used for delivering the massage. After that ... any body part can be used. This may also need specific agreement. +•Couples who come need to be very aware that their partner will be touched intimately by and be touching intimately another person. They cannot remain exclusive and participate in the game. No agreement no game. +•The suggested time for each massage is TEN minutes. This allows a balance between a substantial massage and not too much waiting time for the rest of the participants, though many people will be very happy to be watching whatever is happening. +•Each turn at least one of the participants (or both) will be naked.

Totally (taking one item off each round would be possibly but it might take all day!!). +o25% means head and shoulders. In the front down to but not including breasts. Again because the RECEIVER does not need to be naked to get this massage the GIVER gets their gear off. Totally. +o50% means a full naked back massage. Just the back, from neck to foot. Obviously the RECEIVER needs to be naked. +o90% means a full body massage EXCEPT for where bathers would usually be worn by most people. For women this means no contact on the breasts or pussy or bum. For men no contact around the groin. To make the exclusion here a bit fairer think whatever would be covered by board shorts. You work out and agree on the exact details. Obviously the RECEIVER needs to be naked. +o98% means a full body massage EXCEPT for the triangle of the pubic area. So no touching of the pussy on women or the cock and balls on guys. Everywhere else gets full attention. Obviously the RECEIVER needs to be naked. +o100% means what it says. Everywhere. No part of the body is off limits. While it may sound like the ultimate the other forms of massage can also be very exciting and arousing. +•The game ends when all participants decide it ends. Preferably at the end of a completed round. You might like to decide before you start if you will do one, two, three (or more) 'rounds'. You might also decide to have a brief break between rounds.

Then enjoy whatever has been 'inspired' by playing. +Preparation. +•Invite the guests. Make sure that everyone understands clearly what will happen. +•The space needs to be prepared (with the 'equipment') and a bed/couch/space for the massages to be delivered and a space around where the rest of the participants can sit comfortably and see clearly.

Concerned that this was a perhaps a bridge too far I never requested her do it either. +I crossed finally this bridge with Gwendolyn however after experimenting on my own enough to know that I enjoyed having my prostate massaged, and since had fantasized about her indulging me with prostate play. +I eventually realized that to have my fantasy fulfilled by Gwendolyn, I had to just come out and ask for a prostate massage or I would simply never get one. +I awkwardly brought up the topic in conversation one evening by mentioning that I had read about wives massaging their husband's prostate, about how intense the orgasm was etc... and that I wanted to try it. +Gwendolyn initially had some real doubts but obliged me with a timid first attempt. +The first time was not exactly spectacular, and as matter of fact it was downright awkward, but we had broken the ice. +It took a couple more trial runs before Gwendolyn actually got the hang of it and she's freaky good at it now, but it would never have happened if I hadn't engaged her in that initial uncomfortable conversation and then our clumsy first attempt. +Now I'm a lucky guy; every week or two I will get a delicious prostate massage from Gwendolyn, either as a warm up act or the main event depending on the mood. +It's not essential that I orgasm every time Gwendolyn breaches my behind, it can be just part of our foreplay especially if I will be reciprocating by playing with Gwendolyn's tight little butt as well. +If you've never tried it because either you're not interested, or interested but don't want to approach your spouse with it then I understand however, there is really a lot more going on with a prostate massage than meets the eye. +First off it feels damn good, if done right by someone you're comfortable with. +As far as the mechanics of a prostate massage go, your partner should obviously check and make sure they have no jagged fingernails before even getting close to your backside. +While surgical gloves aren't necessary, I recommend them for several reasons beyond just helping with the jagged nail thing. +Surgical gloves are sanitary and convenient, also they could help a squeamish partner feel more at ease with probing your nether regions looking for some man gland. +Primarily though I recommend surgical gloves for the kink factor, for me it adds to my experience especially when Gwendolyn dons them with audible ""SNAP"" for effect. Pant! +Lube is essential, and this can be a personal preference but I don't think you can go wrong with some slick silicone lubes like Wet Platinum, I-D Millennium, or Pjur Eros Bodyglide. +If you're just using soap and warm water as lubrication while in the shower don't introduce soap that is the least bit harsh or perfumed for obvious reasons, I recommend Dove sensitive skin or something equivalent. +There is a huge selection of sex toys out there marketed specifically for prostate play promising all kinds of miraculous thrills to prospective buyers. +I have experimented with sex toys in the past, primarily out of curiosity but they aren't really my thing so I hesitate giving advice on them. +Be mindful that your prostate is only a couple of inches or so inside your anal cavity and curves inward to toward the base of your cock, so a long straight toy is going to primarily stimulate the anus itself which isn't bad but no cigar so to speak. +I much prefer Gwendolyn's expertly directed finger to any sex toy, and also I prefer the intimacy that her finger provides over a toy. +There is an undeniable amount of kinkiness to a prostate massage, and the naughty factor only serves to heat up something that is hot already! +Massaging your lovers prostate involves a huge amount of trust, sharing and communication that I think has to be good for a couple's relationship, sort of like a team building exercise. +I do disagree with the notion that an orgasm with prostate stimulation is so much better than just a regular orgasm, now it's different but I can't say its better. +Generally; a prostate orgasm is almost involuntary similar to a sneeze, and Gwendolyn noticed this right away the first time she really hit that magic spot while giving me head. +Gwendolyn commented afterward that normally while she's giving me head she knows when I'm about to cum, but when she found that magic spot with her finger, I shot off without the usual warning signs and caught her by surprise. +Additionally; during regular oral sex it can difficult for me to cum without a certain amount of thrusting however, if Gwendolyn is hitting my prostate just right with her finger then I can be coaxed to orgasm with a lot less thrusting. The additional stimulation of Gwendolyn's finger on the right spot can really be a ""launch button ""for me. +I'm over fifty and confidently straight, but I'm far from being a homophobe. +I only mention it because many straight younger men internally struggle with enjoying anal stimulation during sex and the fear that would somehow make them gay. +I believe a longtime lover will probably know you want anal play anyway, and may or may not be comfortable with that. You ultimately will have to breach that topic and guide them where you want them to go. +A frisky shower together is a good place to start. It is always fun to shower with a friend. I suggest soaping each other up and guide her to where you want to be touched, encourage her to touch there, and even gently insert her finger. Then you can give her directions on just how to stimulate you. As I mentioned earlier, generally it's about two inches or so in and up toward the base of your cock. +Occasionally we share a shower and I will jack off for Gwendolyn, and she loves to watch me cum. Once she get her finger in just the right spot, I cum hard and fast with minimal jerking or stroking. My ass grasping at her little finger is enough to show her that she is giving me tremendous pleasure. +Positions Gwendolyn uses to stimulate my prostate: +1.) Standing up anywhere your imagination takes you. Against a wall, or leaning on a dresser, I already mentioned in the shower. Bending over a table or just grabbing my ankles with Gwendolyn fingering me is a big turn on as well! +2.) Laying on my back with a pillow or two underneath my hips. Elevating my hips provides Gwendolyn good access to my backside. She uses her fingers on my prostate while also giving me a hand job till orgasm. Gwendolyn loves to watch me cum up close, and this position is always a great visual for her. +3.) Bending over with my hands on our bed supporting me or with my knees up on the edge of the bed while Gwendolyn is standing behind me talking dirty, spanking me and telling me how naughty I am. I usually don't orgasm in this position but it's a good table setter. +4.) Insertion from underneath while I 'm kneeling or squatting on the bed. I can control the depth and speed of penetration very well while in this position. Gwendolyn loves to suck me off while lying prone in front of me and gladly swallows every drop, this is her favorite way of giving me head. +5.) Up on all fours with my backside presented to her for stimulation. I can control speed and depth of penetration in this position by backing into her. Gwendolyn will often have me spread my legs in this position and lay face up underneath me to get a better view of me shooting my load. +6.) Lying on my stomach with a pillow or two underneath my hips. Elevating my ass provides Gwendolyn good access to my backside. She uses her fingers on me till I usually rise up on to all fours or sit up on my knees then she will gladly suck me to completion. +In conclusion, hopefully this will explain to other couples that an intimate prostate massage shouldn't be considered a deviant act or something you should feel ashamed of. There doesn't have to be any sort of stigma attached to it. A loving, caring couple can share, learn from each other, about each other, and have a rocking good time along the way!" +637,The Masturbation Balm,ErnstBlofeld,How To,2003-06-14,2003-06-14,2022-01-04 08:40:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-masturbation-balm,Primer on making a sexual orgasm enhancer.,"['Balm', 'Clit Cock', 'Glycerin', 'Inside Vagina', 'Large Amounts', 'Masturbation', 'Pre Cum', 'Sexual Lubricant', 'Small Amount', 'Tea']",4.23,"**PLEASE NOTE** : +The recipe for the Masturbation Balm is not intended to be used as a sexual lubricant for vaginal or anal penetration. The Masturbation Balm should never be used as a lube for condoms. The Masturbation Balm contains Tea Tree oil which can break condoms. The Masturbation Balm has been created to act only as an enhancer for clitoral and penile stimulation, and should only be used externally. The use of this recipe as a sexual lubricant can lead to the unpleasantly inflaming of the interior vaginal walls, and or rectum. If the Masturbation Balm is used as a sexual lubricant it can also cause yeast infection in women. Please enjoy the Masturbation Balm but only as an enhancer of stimulation to the clitoris and penis either through solo or mutual masturbation. +* * * +Balm Pronunciation: 'bä(l)m, New England also 'b[a']m Function: noun Etymology: Middle English basme, baume, from Old French, from Latin balsamum balsam Date: 13th century 1 : a balsamic resin; especially : one from small tropical evergreen trees (genus Commiphora of the family Burseraceae) 2 : an aromatic preparation (as a healing ointment) 3 : any of several aromatic plants of the mint family 4 : a spicy aromatic odor 5 : a soothing restorative agency +Why did you invent the Masturbation Balm? +Lately there has been a plethora of orgasm enhancement creams on the over the counter market. Although they do seem to work they are also very costly. The Masturbation Balm allows men and women to make their own product which we feel is better than what is out there commercially. +This Masturbation Balm uses tea tree oil. This is the most important ingredient found in the balm. Tea tree is not the same as the tea beverage plant. It comes from the Myrtaceae plant family. This species is famous for its ability to fight and prevent infections. It does this by having the antimicrobial properties. Tea tree oil has many medicinal properties. It is also antiseptic, antiviral, antifungal and stimulates the immune system. It can be used for a variety of common ailments like cold, flu, thrush, sinusitis, cold sores, fungal infection, oily skin and infected wounds. Please consult your doctor or holistic professional for further information on the oil's medicinal uses. Tea tree oil is also a little expensive. A small bottle goes for about ten dollars (U.S.) or more, but it goes a long way so it's an investment well worth the price! +Glycerin is a humectant, meaning it attracts moisture to your skin. Glycerin is a neutral, sweet-tasting, colorless, thick liquid which freezes to a gummy paste and which has a high boiling point. However, diluted with water, saliva, pre cum, or vaginal secretions it will soften your skin, and it's especially good for tender skin. +Other recommended lubes that can be used if you don't have glycerin: K-Y products Olive oil Albolene + NOTICE: Recently it has been found that lubricants containing GLYCERIN can cause yeast infections in women – so ladies be careful and clean up before and after every Masturbation Balm session. +How does the masturbation balm feel like when it is used? +It varies from person to person. For the great majority of masturbation practitioners the feeling is a positive and healthy one. For the first time in their lives (!) many individuals are reporting stronger climaxes with an extended period of relaxation and release afterwards! The self pleasuring practitioner feels that the Masturbation Balm drains them out (in a good way of course) of built up tension within the whole body, and most importantly the genital area. +After climax, a calm feeling of satisfaction is common, very similar to when one empties a full bladder but better. The most common description amongst men is that the balm produces a warm pleasant tingling on their erect cocks, sort of acting as a reviving agent that intensifies penile sensation. This is why the Masturbation Balm can possibly aid men who are suffering from impotence or erectile difficulties. During the masturbatory session, a pleasant feeling usually evolves around the person's lower abdominal area. Why this happens is a mystery. Practitioners of Asian spiritual healing therapies might attribute this to the second chakra. The word chakra is Sanskrit for wheel or disk and it signifies one of seven basic energy centers in the body. Each of these centers correlates to major nerve ganglia branching forth from the spinal column. +Chakra number two is about: +Water, Emotional identity, oriented to self-gratification! The second chakra, located in the abdomen, lower back, and sexual organs, is related to water, emotions and sexuality. It connects us to others through feeling, desire, sensation, and movement. Ideally, this chakra brings us fluidity and grace, depth of feeling, sexual fulfillment, and the ability to accept change. This chakra might explain the sensation that is usually felt nearer to the ejaculation. It has been likened to a sensation of excitement, lust, liberation, and release all rolled up into one. People are advised not to be alarmed by it and just go with the flow – this feeling is usually a sign that your approaching orgasm and ejaculation will be an excellent one. +It has been reported that a man's cock gets harder when the balm is used, more clear pre cum flows out, and that when ejaculation does occur; a bigger, thicker and stronger release of cum is achieved. Visually it's both beautiful and amazing. Some men and their partners can't believe the massive amount of jism that shoots out when the male ejaculates. For some reason, ejaculation with the balm produces very thick opaque semen which is sometimes white in appearance. Many women have written to us thanking us for producing large amounts of thick white semen from their husband's cocks when they ejaculate either on their bodies, between their breasts, faces, or as it is gaining popularity now amongst people of all ages; projectile ejaculation into their partner's mouths. +Some cautions before we start +Let's begin by saying that tea tree oil has a warm fresh, spicy-camphor like odor with a medicinal aroma. Although tea tree oil is a non-toxic, and a non- irritant, it must however be used with some caution. +The strength of Tea Tree oil should be respected and therefore large amounts should never be used full strength on the body or in sensitive areas like open skin. However, for those with sensitive skin, it's best to dab a tiny drop of the oil on your skin before liberally applying it on your desired areas. If you feel no irritations, it is safe to say you have no allergy towards tea tree oil. It's a good idea to use tea tree oil in conjunction with the glycerin, because the glycerin cuts down on the powerful potency of the tee tree oil. People who use tea tree oil in their masturbation practice are also warned never to apply the oil directly to the genitals. Doing so can cause irritation and a very unpleasant feeling. Again, it must be cut with the glycerin. It's also advisable for women to use the tree tea oil glycerin combo only on the clitoris and not inside the vagina or anus. If you use a vibrator or dildo to stimulate yourself please only use it on the outside of your body if it contains any sort of the tea tree oil glycerin mixture. It's extremely unpleasant to feel burning inside your vagina if any tea tree gets in, and it's been likened to applying Ben Gay or some type of pain relieving sports rub inside your pussy or asshole. Not a nice feeling. +The formula for tea tree masturbation balm +This is the ""how to"" regarding the masturbation balm. It's ridiculously simple. Always make a fresh batch before a masturbation session. It doesn't really pay to make a lot of the balm and store it in a jar or container. You always want the balm to be fresh. +1\. In your hand take a small amount of glycerin (you buy it at all drugstores – it's really inexpensive!). +2\. Take a small amount of water or saliva on the hand which contains the glycerin. The best thing is to use your own natural saliva. Most people spit into their hands because it's easier. It's not as gross as it sounds and the saliva contains certain organic properties that are beneficial to your skin and genitals. +3\. Take the bottle of tree tea oil and apply drops of the essential oil to the mixture in your hand. If this is your first time using tea tree as an enhancer – it is strongly recommended that you only use about three drops from the bottle. After time, you can apply more drops of tea tree oil as your body and clit/cock get used to the potency of the oil. +4\. Apply to your clit or cock and feel the spicy-ness and tingling sensation it creates. Masturbate adjusting the proportions of saliva, oil, and glycerin. +5\. Enjoy and follow through orgasm if you want. +That's it!" +638,Match Me! A Guide to Online Dating,sophia jane,How To,2005-11-05,2005-11-05,2022-01-04 08:36:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/match-me-a-guide-to-online-dating,A beginner's guide to meeting someone online.,"['Advice', 'Dating', 'Online', 'Personals']",4.45,"So you've decided to try out the wonderful world of online dating, and you don't know quite where to start. Obviously your first step is to pick the dating site you want to use. In larger towns, there are usually free local sites that have a limited number of features. If that's not an option, there are always big sites like match.com or yahoo personals. Be sure to check out all the details before you sign up for one of these; often you can sign up for free, but actually being able to contact someone requires a paid subscription. It doesn't do much good to sign up and then not be able to do anything with your membership. +Your next step is to do some thinking about what you're looking for- do you want to find people to casually date, or are you looking for your soul mate? What interests you in another person- someone who likes to party? Someone who likes to stay in and rent movies? Someone who's active in sports or someone who's a couch potato? Once you give some thought to what you're looking for, you need to do some thinking about who you are. What are your strengths, your passions, and your pet peeves? What does someone NEED to know about you? +After you've got some ideas, sit down and get creative. A well worded profile that expresses who you are and what you want is going to be far more effective than one that's thrown together in a hurry. Be funny, be original, but most of all, be yourself. Your profile is actually your first impression, so it's essential that you make it work for you. It's also essential that you use spell check, and, if possible, have a friend look it over. Glaring spelling errors or badly worded sentences will turn many people off completely. +If you have one, use a good, but recent, picture of yourself to go with your profile. People are far more willing to invest time in corresponding with someone online if they know a little about what to expect. Plus, you'll get more initial hits on your profile if you have a picture because many people will only browse through profiles that have a photo attached. +So now you've written your profile, given a description of yourself and what you're searching for. Next it's time to do some browsing of your own. Don't expect everyone to come to you. Women, especially, expect that men will approach them, but if you're serious about meeting someone you need to take some of the initiative yourself. Browse through some profiles and see if anyone catches your eye. Once you find one, or two or three, send them an email through the dating site. Again, though, it's essential that you think about you're going to say. I've had some great messages, and I've had some terrible ones including notes from strangers who give me their number or who simply say, ""What's up?"" I recommend that you mention something from their profile; this shows that you paid attention to what they had to say and you were interested. It's flattering to the recipient and is a lot more likely to get them to respond than giving them your number without any lead up. It's also good to include a question in your initial email; if they said something about traveling in their profile, ask them where they've been. Whatever it was that intrigued you, ask about it. Asking questions makes it more likely they'll write back. +Don't expect everyone you write will return your interest; and don't be rude to those who are interested in you but don't catch your fancy. Everyone is there for the same reason- to meet someone special, and it's important to remember that everyone has their own interests and expectations; don't take it personally if you're not getting twenty emails a day. +The usual progression if you find each other interesting is a few emails through the site, then emails on regular email, then online chatting, then phone, and then a meeting. Some of the steps are occasionally skipped and of course you can do what feels right to you. Sometimes you get halfway when you realize you're just not interested anymore. It's okay to admit that; no sense in leading someone on, though it's nice to be sensitive in your rejection. Just because it's online doesn't mean people's feelings can't get hurt. +It's very important to remember basic safety issues, especially when you get to the meeting stage. A good friend of mine recommends a meeting in a very public place for drinks or coffee (so no meal commitment is made if you hate each other); you should leave the contact information of the person you're meeting with a friend or relative, as well as where and when you're meeting. It's also a good idea to have a safety call during the date to that friend or relative, just to check in. I'm sure this all seems a little extreme, but if you think about it, when you meet someone online, you are trusting that they are who they say they are. But occasionally, they're not, and since there's no way to know up front, it's important to do what you can to protect yourself. +Just like meeting at work or through a friend, meeting someone online can lead to a meaningful relationship, a one stand, or a lousy first date. The benefit of meeting online is that you have a chance to get to know each other before you actually ""know"" each other; the downside is that it's impossible to know for sure if you have chemistry until that first date. It's possible to ""click"" online and have no spark at all in real life. And it's possible to be only moderately interested online and then be hot for each other in real life. You just never know. +My last tip, one I know not everyone will listen to, is to be honest. If you only want a one-night stand or a casual relationship, be honest. Don't' pretend to be looking for a soul mate if you just want sex. There are plenty of people with similar intentions, so there's no need to lie. My profiles always read that I'm looking for something casual, for fun. This is my way of saying that I don't want a lifelong partner, but want to have a good time and enjoy whatever happens. I tend to steer clear of profiles that talk about finding soul mates or wives because I know I can't be that for someone, and I don't want to mislead. +Meeting someone online isn't that complicated. Sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn't. But you have a lot better chance if you take the time to create a thoughtful and creative profile. And an even better chance if you take the time to be thoughtful and creative in the way you approach those who interest you. Unlike a bar, you can take your time to come up with just the right thing to say, and I say, take advantage!" +639,Maze Runner Movie,Huntressinred,How To,2015-01-23,2015-01-23,2022-01-04 08:36:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/maze-runner-movie,Sex in the Back Row.,"['Back Row', 'Braless', 'Feet', 'Movie', 'Pantiless', 'Straddle']",3.97,"What a surprise it was that Monday night when he wrote to me and asked what was playing at the theater. ""Why?"" I asked, ""can you come to the movies?"" +He did. Tuesday, to see Maze Runner. It wouldn't have mattered what was playing in the stadium seating theater there, it's that particular theater we need because the seat arms raise up to allow a very close, deliciously intimate close seating. +We were both there just when the theater opened and our movie showed just 15 minutes later. ""You look great."" he told me as we got out of cars. Before we went in though, he wanted to walk around the front of the building and I thought that was odd, but a little walk holding his hand, was fine by me. I wore a long patchwork flannel skirt and grey short sleeved clingy sweater with nothing at all beneath, just as I told him I would. +The day was cool and I wore my long green wool coat to keep me warmer and make me feel not quite so naked. +As we walked around the south side of the building, there is a narrow alleyway between the theater and the next building. He stopped me half way through and backed me up against the brick wall and kissed me. Kissed me just the way I love him to, determined and hungry. No one I have ever kissed, kisses me the way he does it. He is direct and insistent, demanding. As we stood there, enjoying the closeness and scent and connection with each other, a woman came walking into the alleyway. He whispered to me, ""someone is coming, just kiss me."" We never acknowledged her and she walked past quickly, quietly. When she was gone, we laughed and walked on through the alleyway to the street. We had to go all the way around the building and as he paid for our movie, I was so anxious for the dark and his embrace again. +He used the restroom before we went in and as we walked into the show, we saw to both our delights that we were alone. Hoping beyond hope it would remain that way, we climbed to the top, last row and took seats just below the projector window. +He wasted no time raising the armrest between us once I had my coat off and he took my face in both his hands and kissed me hard. ""I love it the way you do that"" I tell him, ""the way you touch and fondle my face."" When he does it, he studies my face, my eyes and he is intense just then, always so INTENSE. I put my hands over his, and marveled at how familiar and comfortable I am with him, how I had missed him and his hands on me since last I had seen him. Writing it here, I feel them now. +His hands found my naked breasts beneath the sweater and he smiled at me, lecherously, smiled and the lights in the theater were still up while the previews and commercials played on the screen. ""You didn't think I would come without under things?"" I asked. He laughed and said, ""I did, I knew YOU would."" ""You are so sexual."" I laughed at that. ""I've missed you, Jack."" I told him. +He lifted the folds of the skirt to expose my naked legs, long and lean and firm. Running his hands up and down my thigh, higher until he understood that I also had no panties to hinder him either. He kissed me again, deeply, bumping his teeth on mine and I melted into his ministrations. +Finally the lights went down and as I kept one eye on the entranceway, cognizant that other movie goers might join us, he leaned over me, covering me and making it hard for me to watch, much less concentrate on the watching. +It's a dangerous thing to get so lost in one's own senses that nothing else matters or intrudes. I go there sometimes, in the throws of my own heat and hormones. I go there easily with Jack. But Jack is usually so cautious, so paranoid himself, that I can leave the caution to him. Not today it would seem. Today his need of me and long dry spell has dimmed his paranoia. He simply needs and will have. +As the movie plays on, so do we. He reaches past me to lift yet one more armrest on my right, laying me back onto the seat there and spreads my legs to his hands. ""No!"" I whisper to him, insistently, ""You can't do THAT here!"" He hears, but is not deterred. He lowers himself to my nakedness and puts his expert tongue to the most tender flesh I own. I cannot watch the door, as I roll my head in ecstasy with the feel of his mouth on me. I know we cannot enjoy this longer, the danger is extreme. He raises up and sits back into his seat, allowing me space. As I lean over to kiss his mouth, my own taste still on his breath and lips, I reach for his pants, the hard shaft I know is there, my body has given him this need. I long to feel his naked hardness in my hand. He lowers his head to my hair and breathes hard on the back of my head and neck. He reaches down and unbuckles his belt and undoes the tight jeans that contain him. He wants my hands there too. +I waste no time, reaching for the iron hard shaft that needs my attention. Oh, the ache I feel between my legs as I fondle him and he kisses me deeply. The combination of those two stimuli heat my blood and make my heart race fast. +He reaches down and pushes his pants and shorts all the way down past his hips and I cannot believe this is the man I know! The man so carefully watchful and guarded. I look again at the entry way, no sign of any other viewers and I cannot deny the ache between my legs for the feel of his hardness. He lays me back suddenly again onto the seats and impales me with that hot iron. ""Jack!"" I insist, ""You can't!"" But his body pay my warning no heed. His heat invades me, fills me, pull slightly away and fills me full again and again. I fear he soon will be done at this rate so I insist he withdraw and he does, reluctant, but cooperative. +I smile at him, at is disappointment, his quick, hot breath coming, trying to calm, and kiss him again. I cannot get enough of the kisses I have missed so long, longed for so long. His hands reach down to my bottom and caress me there. +I love the feel of his hands, his desire feeds me. I whisper to him, ""You should have left the undershirt off."" He moves me back a bit and quickly removes both shirts leaving himself virtually naked, his pants around his ankles and shirts off. This simply cannot be the man I know, so daring. +My hands gratefully run up and down his chest and stomach, free to enjoy his hot smooth skin. My head spins with the scent of him, the feel of his skin beneath my hands and his hungry hands exploring my body. +It's just finally then, that I realize he has remembered the cologne I always insisted upon when he meets me. I was so anxious for his touch, his kisses that I had forgotten to notice whether he remembered or not, but he had, and all of it added to my euphoria. He knows me, remembers well the buttons to push. +He bites lightly at my neck and breathes hard there, sending tingles up and down my spine. He licks my ear and sends his tongue darting in and around it, and the ecstasy of this is more than I can describe to you here. All these things he does for me, to me, are things I starve for at home. +Suddenly, the feel of him in my hand draws me down, and I carefully, deliberately lower my head to his lap, where his desire begs for my attention, my saliva, my hot willing tongue. This happens to me with him, at a point. I must taste what I hunger for so badly and as I surround his shaft with my lips and mouth, the heat he puts off and the flavors brings down that red gauzy haze over my reality and I can no longer be the guardian for our safety, I leave that now to him, his job, not mine. I move, sweetly, deliberately up and down twirling my tongue, tasting him and my own flavors, still lingering on his hot skin. He reaches down, to begin guiding my head, the way he likes, but I don't allow direction, and wave his hands away, ""Oh! Sorry!"" he whispers. I raise up to speak, ""You forgot."" I say and laugh, but go back to my efforts quickly and resume my own agenda. When I know he is almost letting go, I'm done with this. +He pushes me lightly away then, and runs his hands down my naked leg to my left foot and removes my black high heel. God, ""this too?"" I think. He did this, this foot thing, the first time he took me to the movies. This, was the one thing I marveled at, that was emblazoned in my mind from that first time with him. I could not believe that a man would do this for me. He rubs gently, slow and deliberately up and down the leg to the foot and then that too is administered to carefully, gently, lovingly. As if this ministration was not enough, he puts his mouth to my toes and kisses, suckles and finally rubs my foot along the side of his face and over the back of his head and neck. I marvel at it still, as I write, the breath coming quicker as my fingers relate it. From the left foot and leg, to the right and the same time and care given to each until I am so very grateful, +I lean forward reach again and kiss him deeply. I push gently against his chest and sit him back in his seat, my hand feeling to make certain that his hardness is still mine, and I stand, warm bare feet on the cold concrete floor and move to lift my long heavy skirt over his lap and lower my hot wetness down gently onto the steal of him. +He adores this, I know without hearing or seeing his face that he does. His hands find my naked hips beneath the heavy skirt that flows over his lap and he runs warm hungry hands up and down my slender hips and over the bottom that rises and falls upon his desire. He begins to guide my movements, quicker, harder, deep - Ouch! ""Be Nice!"" I caution him, his hardness too deep at one point, too hard and pain bites me. He whispers ""sorry"" as he continues to guide my movements. Those hands speak to me more clearly than words can. They press, against my hips and thighs, run firmly up the indentation of my spine and back again, telling me of the adoration they have for the feel of my lovely, still firm, strong and oh so lovely body, every inch adored, admired and appreciated. +The movie plays on, and a violent scene is playing loudly as he finally gives up what he has held and brought to deliver to me. I hear him behind me, below me in the rapture of his release, finally, gratefully but far from quietly... +I smile, gladly giving him what he needs from me, because though I didn't get what he received, I did get everything else I hungered for, compliments and fondling and desire and the assurance that I am still sexual and desirable and beautiful. +I sit, a minute, letting him revel in his release and finally rise up off him to reach for the wipes I was fairly sure I'd need and did. I reach over and wipe him with a cold clean wipe and his breath hitches. ""Cold?"" I ask? Smiling evilly. He makes no further sound, just allows my ministrations. +He makes no move to dress, as kiss and fondle his chest and legs one last time and finally I tell him he can dress now, be warmer, comfortable. He does and for the balance of the movie he holds me, cuddles me and this too, I love and need, this I don't get at home. +The movie was good, a decent story and we watch and amazingly have kept track of the plot for the most part. We enjoyed each other and the show and when it is done and the lights come up, we are still alone, privately finished with what we came here for and sated, both of us. +He walks me out, graciously, chatting pleasantly and at the cars, kisses me goodbye, smiling, waves as he pulls the car away. +I drive home pleased and grateful and still on an afterglow high that will last me all that evening and most of the next day. +I put pen to paper here, to remember vividly every detail that when I may need them, these delicious memories he has given me, sometime later, when I'm blue and hungry and alone, I will have them to comfort and remind me that I may feel again those hands and lips and feelings he ignites. +Thank you Jack." +640,Meditation: Simple Techniques,Lord DragonsWing,How To,2005-02-10,2005-02-10,2022-01-04 08:36:14,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/meditation-simple-techniques,Simple techniques of meditation for everyday living.,"['Blood Pressure', 'Concentrate Breathing', 'Feet Legs', 'Heart Rate', 'Meditation', 'Technique']",4.65,"As a practicing nurse, I discovered the benefits of mediation many years ago. At that time it was called purse lip breathing. A simple technique to help patients in pain or having, anxiety attacks or asthma attacks to relax and concentrate on their breathing. The positive results astounded me. Patients who were in immediate pain became more calm while the pain medications had time to kick in. Patients with breathing difficulties became more steady and breathed easier while we waited on the respiratory tech to give a treatment. +While the nursing textbooks called this technique purse lip breathing, I realized it was a form of meditation which provides the caregiver with a holistic approach to medicine. So how can this benefit us in our everyday life? Very simple. It keeps us focused, relaxed and healthier. And yes, it improves sex. +Over the years, I've done alot of research and practice with meditation. I now feel comfortable to try and pass this information along. This is my first How To article, so please excuse me if my descriptions are not the best. +Types of Meditation +Basically there are two types of meditation. Concentrative and and Mindfulness. +Concentrative Meditation-This form of meditation focuses the attention on the health, an image or sound in order to still the mind and allow a greater awareness and clarity to emerge. +The simplest form is to concentrate on the breath. As a nurse I've used this numerous times to help patients with an elevated heart rate or respiratory rate to relax. This is the purse lip breathing technique taught in all nursing textbooks. +Mindfulness Meditation-This involves opening the attention to become aware of sensations, thoughts, sounds, smells and so forth. +Basically, sitting quietly you simply witness whatever goes through your mind, not reacting or becoming involved with thoughts, memories, worries or images. This helps to regain a more calm, clear and non-reactive state of mind. +Benefits of Meditation +So what are the benefits of meditation? Many practioners of Yoga have known this answer for years. +Physically you have a younger biological age, decreased heart rate, lower cholesterol, decreased blood pressure, lower level of cortisol and lactate two chemicals associated with stress, an improved flow of air into the lungs and a reduction of free radicals which are believed to be a part of the aging process. +Psychological benefits include many. Decreased anxiety, increased happiness, decreased depression, increased feelings of vitality and rejuvenation, decreased irritablity and moodiness, increased feelings of self-actualization and increased memory and learning ability. +Simple Techniques +One of the first times I sat back and realized as a nurse that I was using meditation techniques was when a patient of mine had a cardiac rhythm in the 140's. I immediately rushed into the room and found her sitting there struggling to breath and grasping her chest. Yelling for the doctor to be called I grasped the patients hand and told her to take deep breaths and concentrate. This is the purse lip breathing technique taught to all nurses. +Within minutes her breathing became regular and her heart rate dropped down to the 80's. Her blood pressure became stable and she calmed down while waiting on the Doctors return call. I don't recommend this to anyone outside the healthcare profession. The woman had a minor heart attack and the technique worked to calm her down and further any complications. The woman went to surgery and came and came out fine. Yet the techniques of meditation were a tremendous help. +So what is a simple technique of meditation? As I said earlier, concentrative meditation is the easiest. Mainly focusing on the breathing. +Studies show that between the hours of 2pm and 4pm most of us get sleepy and grab a soda or candy bar to help finish the day. Let's do something healthier that gives you more energy. +Give yourself one minute. That's it. Don't set an alarm but concentrate on your breathing. +Take a deep breath for 5 seconds, hold it for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. While the lungs are empty, hold it for an additional 5 seconds. Then inhale another 5 seconds and repeat the process. Do this for 1 minute. Inhale, hold, exhale, hold, inhale, etc. You'll find that you have more energy and have done without the sweets. You can do this while sitting in straight back chair as long as you hold a good posture. If needed, put a pillow behind your back to correct your posture. +Another simple meditation techinque is the walking meditation. Are you someone who enjoys walks in the morning or evening? If so, this technique will help tremendously. +Go on your walk but concentrate on your feet and legs. Don't look around. Any images or thoughts that enter your mind, throw them off. Don't get upset that they do, they will. Just ignore them. Then refocus on the feet and legs. Focus on every step you take, gaze ahead, don't look around. Concentrate on your muscles. Feel them flexing and bending. Feel your foot hitting the ground. You'll find yourself walking farther and feeling more relaxed at the end. +Do you have problems getting to sleep at night? I know I have many times. This is a technique I discovered that I found to be a normal meditation techinque to help with sleep. +There have been many nights where I lay down and am worried about a patient and couldn't sleep. Try this and I guarantee it helps. +First, concentrate on your breathing. Close your eyes and picture something beautiful. Move your thoughts to the top of your head, concentrate on the muscles relaxing. As they relax, move your mind to the next lower muscles, the eyes. Throw any throughts you have out. Just concentrate on relaxing the muscles. Work you're way down your body. Through the muscles of the heart, abdomen, legs and feet. I'm usually asleep by the time I get to the feet. I just focus on each muscle and relaxing each one. All other thoughts are gone or thrown out. +Hopefully this article has been of some help. Next, I'll give the medical benefits, benefical meditation postions and more. +As a nurse I must state this. Please, if you have any medical problems that you feel needs professional attention, consult your physician. This article does not replace any advice given by your physican. Consult all parties you are with. Do not use this advice to avoid medical attention." +641,Men and Suspicious Wives,HarrietBay,How To,2016-05-11,2016-05-11,2022-01-04 08:36:15,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/men-and-suspicious-wives,"Sex outside marriage is risky, fun and hoot...except...","['Affairs', 'Being Busted', 'Dangers Of Sex', 'Divorce', 'Having A Lover', 'Infidelity', 'Survive Having An Affair', 'Wife Stories']",3.76,"How do we survive having an affair, keep our worlds very separate, no-one is above being busted.

His wife doesn't want to believe, so concocts any explanation for his disappearances and all that lipstick on his shirts. +There are some of us who love the thrill, the risk, the escape when meeting a lover and few of us calculate the risk of betrayal. +As I lay beside John, a tall lanky preacher man with lily white skin I broached the subject, does your wife have any idea that you play. ""Yes"". The answer didn't quite hit the right file as I froze unsure what that meant. After a long painful silence he told the story. +For 25 years he was the devoted husband, church goer, provider, and father. For the last 19 years sex with his wife had been difficult. ""She'd freeze every time I touched her. She make me jump through hoops 'be more romantic' or 'mow the lawn, paint the house, rewire the fish tank' anything and I'd do it all. When I thought I'd whipped myself enough she lie still waiting for me to 'get it over with' and afterwards; I felt nothing but guilt."" +After a health scare John began to re-evaluate his life and one thing was left that he needed to do: have sex and lots of it. +This night he planned to indulge a woman who had access to a friend's apartment not too far from where he lived. Being a thoroughly tactile man he held her hand and opened the door a restaurant and who was coming out at that moment, his eldest daughter. +In tears she insisted that he confess the affair to his wife. Busted and a marriage over. +For some lucky men there is the opportunity to recover after infidelity, for others its time to start a new life and for the rest its a lesson in being very very careful." +642,Menu For Creative Sex,ravens_pet,How To,2021-05-13,2021-05-13,2022-01-04 08:36:16,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/menu-for-creative-sex,Use this menu to get creative in bed or out.,"['Creative', 'Different', 'Kinky', 'Menu', 'Oral Sex', 'Sex Advice']",4.63,"A Five-Course Menu +For the Most Creative Sex Of Your Life +Use Daily +Hors D'oeuvres + **Massage** + _Rub each other's shoulders, back, legs, feet, or head.

This is a basically a how to for loving me in the erotic manner. +I have used my stories as an outlet. +I knew by middle school that I had these fantasies of being tied up and dominated. I would see these pictures online of people tied up and there was a website called Men in Bondage and many of those shoots became masturbatory material for me. +But this isn't the kind of thing you can talk about at all. +My first semester of high school I developed a crush on a girl but did nothing out shyness and discomfort about this part of me and the thing is my senior year a girl who I had homeroom with signed my yearbook as ""I loved dominating you"" because we had talked every morning and I wonder if she knew, if she had sensed and it's one of those things I wonder about even today because if she did know and she was that way I would have loved to be dominated by her. +To be clear I am perfectly fine with vanilla sex and in a relationship I am going to want it and I will want plenty of nights where we are a normal couple just having dinner, talking, doing what couples do but there will be nights where I will want to be tied up at my woman's mercy and while I generally prefer to be tied by the pretty girl yes there are nights where I'll want her tied but generally I want to be the one tied. +I wish that 50 Shades had come out back when I was younger, not because it's a good representation because it isn't but because it made it acceptable especially for women. +Most of the stories I have written have been an elucidation of my femdom fantasies rather than my vanilla fantasies because well having watched femdom films and read stories I notice a cruelty often, like the concept of cuckolding or cock torture, or things like that and I don't want that. +If I had a partner who wanted to swing I can do that but when I am married if there are any kids they had damned well better be biologically mine and the idea of being in a relationship where I am cuckolded and am not fucking her while the woman fucks whoever she wants is so unacceptable but so many dominant women are into that and I'm not into financial domination either, I want a woman who is successful and as ambitious as I am and if possible as intelligent as I am. I for one am turned on by smart girls. +And so it's going to be so hard because I'd also like to say spend a week tied up by a girl and how do you find someone who is into that? +I am being this honest because I kept this bottled up for so long and didn't pursue it and I realize it has caused much unhappiness. I once told a girl in college drunk about it knowing she was a bit of a gossip hoping that she'd spread it around to someone who was interested in this and maybe she'd find someone to truss me up. +It's so awful to be this way especially when I grew up. +And I do have the foot fetish. I do have the fetish about being tied up and forced to smell the inside of her heel (which is why it makes it into so many stories of mine.) I do like being hogtied. I like soft gags. I have bought a ballgag and I don't like it in part because I have a physically small mouth but I know the ball gag has its purpose and if there was say a softer form of ballgag and not a hard plastic one maybe that could be easier to take. +I have done self-bondage on myself since middle school. +And I have wanted to be double dommed and I realized when I used this shower head to clean out my rear a few years ago and the jet of water went in and I felt a pleasurable sensation that I might like that and I had always read these domination stories where the girl would use a dildo or otherwise anally stimulate but once I felt that jet I realized I might be into that too. +And I am a strong ambitious alpha male, so how I can be into that? +And can I find a woman who'll do the dominant things I want when I want her to while respecting me, loving me, and treating me right? +That's why I write these stories. To clearly elucidate the submissive things I'm interested in and would like to experience because I feel like at least once a week I need to be tied at her feet, gagged, and I don't like cruelty. I want to be dominated but I want her to be sweet. Like on TV when they have those episodes where the mascot from the rival school is kidnapped and there is always a girl who is sweet to that mascot while not letting go. +That has always how I've wanted to be dominated though again the banter I have in my stories is the banter I'd like to have. +I wish I didn't have a foot fetish but I do. I wish I didn't have a bondage fetish but I do. It's always made me feel so weird. But I realize if I am to have a happy marriage I'll have to have a wife who'll do this for me and so I write these stories. +And I'd like to be tied at least once a week for a few hours, tied so I can think of nothing but the moment. +I wish I wasn't such a sick pervert but this is a part of me and anyone who loves me will accept it and indulge me in it. +There will be times when I want to be gagged with stockings or socks or panties. There will be times when I want to wear a ballgag or a ring gag or bit gag. There are going to be times when I want to be dressed like a girl (and when that happens it'll always been when I'm tied) and there will be times when I want other women to join in. +The submissive side of me is a part of. But it doesn't mean I'll accept abuse or disrespect. The place for the expression of it is in a truly loving relationship and again, I would not want to submit to anyone who would not be willing, at least on occasion, to let me take the reins. +Having said that yes there will be times when I would want to be in control and then just times where it is normal vanilla activities and then even beyond that in terms of a relationship I want the same kind of loving relationship most people have, which means long walks on the beach, romantic dinners, and all that other stuff, I'm turned on by letting a woman have control obviously but I'm not interested in being a ""slave."" +I have been doing this simply because I realize when I am married I want to be happily married, I look at marriage as a partnership, and I want wifey to at least share the same goals and ambitions for the partnership as I do and I am not going to hide this from any woman I want to marry, in fact I'll have her read this and all the stories because if I can't be accepted for who I am, all of me, then there's no point in being in a relationship. +A relationship is where you should be able to be loved and grow together, and that's ultimately what I want." +644,Miscues and Mistakes,DG Hear,How To,2006-05-14,2006-05-14,2022-01-04 08:36:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/miscues-and-mistakes,Learn what to do after you get the girl home.,"['Kissing Advice', 'Love Advice', 'Romantic Advice', 'Sex Advice']",4.38,"_Thanks to LadyCibelle and Techsan for doing my editing. I wouldn't submit a story without their help. As I am writing this story you might see some updates. I have asked different friends their opinions and I may be adding them during the writing of this story._ +* +We probably all watch television or go to the movies. I know we at least read stories or you wouldn't be reading this right now. I have often wondered how these actors and actresses make love or at best have sex. I watch them and try many of the things they do but it never turns out the same. Maybe it's just me. I know I've talked to a couple of friends and they seem to have a few problems also. Let's see how you relate to some of the situations. +Let's start by me undressing my lover. I try to unbutton her blouse but the little button doesn't seem to come through the little slit like it's supposed to. Finally I get it undone and see her breasts staring me in the face. Good deal, progress, maybe she isn't out of the mood yet. I reach my hand behind her back while we are kissing, feeling for the clasp on her bra. Where the hell is the damn thing. I'm an ultra male, I don't want to have to ask her. +Finally in a nice way, we unlock lips and she says, ""The clasp is in the front."" Then in a very faint voice I hear the word, ""Moron."" +I quickly undo the clasp and let these big babies bounce out. I want to pull her bra off but it gets tangled in her blouse. Now I have to pull them off together trying to get them off her shoulders in a loving way like they do on TV. +I want us to fall together on the bed gently like they do in the movies. So I hold onto her and kind of pull her toward me so we can fall together onto the bed. Big mistake, I didn't say anything to her as she lost her footing and fell on me as we bumped heads. It kind of killed the mood since now she needed a couple of aspirin for the headache she was quickly getting. I've never gotten that falling together down right. Now I just tell my lady friend to climb on the bed and then I climb on top of her. I can't believe how many aspirin I have saved. +Next, I want to remove her jeans. I have now learned to tell my ladies to remove them before climbing on the bed. Saves a lot of hassle, unless you're a specialist in removing a woman's clothing. I made the mistake a few times of trying to gently remove her jeans while she is lying on the bed. Big, big mistake! Women buy jeans at least one size too small! The jeans look great on them, nice and tight, but they are hell to pull off. Believe me, I've tried more than once. If you can get it over her ass, you might have a chance. I never seemed to be that lucky, as I had to climb up and try to pull the jeans under her ass, scooting each side down about an inch at a time. +You want to do this without pulling her panties off at the same time. You might have to pull her panties and jeans down a little and then kind of pull the panties back up and then back to the jeans again. Hopefully, you were lucky enough to get the jeans down to her thighs. If she has big thighs, you might have to keep scooting the jeans one side at a time. Whatever you do keep complimenting her on her body, even if she has thunder thighs and stretch marks. Don't ask her to spread her legs - it doesn't sound good. If she doesn't do it automatically for you, then scoot up between them and push her legs apart yourself, but not too far - you still have to get her jeans off. +Hopefully your woman should now be lying on your bed with only her panties on. You should climb on the bed and have some foreplay before going much further. Women usually like this unless you are as inept as me. +I was kissing my woman over and over again. I was planting my lips against her taking her breath away. Literally! I didn't know she wasn't able to breath and she started kicking and moving under me. I thought I was really getting her turned on. I was 'Jerry, the super kisser.' I found out she wasn't able to breath through her nose. I guess I really took her breath away. You might want to ask or at least make the kisses short if you see this happening. +I started kissing her neck like they do in the movies. Again, another mistake. I sucked too hard and gave her a hickey. For those of you who don't know what a hickey is I'll explain. It's sucking hard on her neck or other soft places that leave a bruise. Most women don't want hickeys. It's embarrassing especially if other people see the bruises and she has to try and explain it. If she's married, you might be in 'mucho' trouble. +The boobs or breasts are a big misunderstood area. Some women loved them played with. None like them mauled - believe me, I found out the hard way. +Remembering one of my first big breasted women I couldn't wait to get hold of those big babies and I grabbed them. She screamed out, slapped me and went home. The next lady I tried to just squeeze them hoping to turn her on. Again, a mistake. She told me I felt like a mammogram machine - you know, those machines that squeeze the shit out of a woman's tits. No woman - and I mean no woman - wants her breasts squashed, regardless of the size of her boobs. +Here is the right way to do it. I learned after the loss of sex from many women. Don't get your hands near those babies until you have laid some light kisses on them, lots of light kisses. Don't bite! Remember that women do not want sucker bites or any kinds of bites or bruising they might have to explain. Sucking of the nipples are a big yes. Women like this, maternal instinct or something but woman love sucking, licking and kissing of the nipples. If the nipples get big, you're doing real good. +If you did the sucking and licking right, you may now gently massage the breasts. I usually get yelled at and slapped by this time or my woman goes home with sore boobs. If you succeeded to this point, then rub and gently massage her breasts and softly touch the nipples. Be damn gentle with the nipples here. She hopefully is getting into it by now and will let you start to squeeze those babies. If she's moaning or groaning, that is a good sign. If she's just lying there you might want to find out why. She may be sleeping or worse - dead. If she is dead, call 911 and go home. You will be considered a freak if you go any further. That was a joke readers, hopefully. +Time to move down the body. If she has stretch marks or a rather large belly don't say anything negative. If you do, your night will be over. Remember most women's bodies do not look like the ones you see on the big screen. If you look anything like me, be glad that you have any body that moves lying there in front of you. Close your eyes if you have to, but rub and kiss the belly even if it's not attractive. +Let's keep going. Move your hand into her panties. If she has a pad on, you have a problem. Either you have to go further or get up and go home. At this point you might want to pull her panties off and check under the hood so to speak. If you pull her panties off along with the pad or pulled the string and removed the tampon, you have to decide how bad you want it. If she let you go this far, she definitely wants to do it. So what are you going to do? If you don't fuck her now, believe me, you never will! +These kinds of decisions never have to be made on TV shows. +Let's say she's on her period. Put on a condom and jump her bones. If what I'm told is true, women are hot during this time. Use the stupid condom and have fun. If you don't have one or don't like wearing them - and I don't like them - just stick it in as long as you know she is disease free. Blood and cum will always wash off. She'll consider you the man for doing her during this period. +No blood? No problem, she probably wears it for leaks. It only happens in real life. Women laugh, women pee, the pad absorbs it. So, if the pad isn't wet, jump her bones. If the pad is wet, wipe her pussy off with a wash cloth - that's something you never see on TV but it does help. Then proceed to eat her out. Believe me, every woman except the really weird ones likes her pussy eaten out. She may not like to give head but she loves receiving it. +Most pussies are really not that pretty. I have seen a lot of them and still get turned on by them, regardless of how ugly they might be. They look much better in a room that only has a little bit of light. You should know the girl if you are going to eat her out. Also make sure you can get by the smell. If it smells rotten, it probably is. If you like fish, it will be a plus for you. I know, in all the stories you read the writers are talking about the heavenly smell. It only smells like that when you are at your horniest. At that point every pussy looks and smells great! +A word or two about bushes. Most ladies trim their bushes some, younger ones mainly to trim up the hair for their bathing suit bottoms. On the TV they always look great. At the pool where I hang out, I always see the hair sticking out the sides of their suits. Looks funny but I can't help looking anyway. Of course I'm a pussy hound and the hair doesn't bother me, especially in a dim light. +I never see many bald or shaved pussies. I always wondered about getting one between shaves. Does it feel soft or prickly? Would it scratch my dick? Can't help you out here guys. If you see some gray hair on it, don't worry about it. It means she probably knows how to use it. Experience you know is always good. If you get hair between your teeth, try to just remove it without being seen. She usually can't see you over her belly anyway. Don't complain, swallow it if you have to. Hair is just a bit of protein. +Something I forgot to mention while eating pussy. If you have false teeth, leave them in your mouth. It is gross for your date to see your teeth in a glass next to the bed. +Ass fucking: It's not for everybody, including me. I've tried it and it really wasn't that good. My partner said it hurt like hell and there was more than one partner I tried it with. If they don't have an enema or some other way of cleaning it out, it smells. I don't know about you but to me shit stinks. I really don't want it on my dick, even though in some of these stories they seem to like the Hershey highway. +For those of you who like anal sex, that's great. I'm not knocking you or your likes and dislikes. I'm just trying to base my opinions and observations here. The first time I ass fucked, I thought my dick was going to blow up. It didn't fit very well. I used all kinds of lube which helped get it in but it hurt me and it hurt my partner. I just felt my time would have been better spent if I put it in a hot wet pussy. No hard feelings for the anal lovers. +Update from a friend: +""If a woman let's a man take her in the ass and then shits all over the floor, it's not her fault. So don't hold her responsible - you asked for it. Clean up the mess yourself."" +Another thought: hemorrhoids are not a pretty sight on anyone. When having anal intercourse you have a tendency to see these ugly red bumps. It might make you change your mind about anal sex. Don't tell your mate about the hemorrhoids, just tell her you wanted her pussy from the rear. She'll probably be much happier anyway. +Just fuck her from behind. You don't have to look at the hemorrhoids because her ass will be closed up and you can hold on to her hips. If you don't see the red bulbs then go ahead and let her have a finger or two up the ass. It's a start. +Underwear, for the man is always interesting. If you expect to get any, make sure you don't have skid marks in your underwear. That is good advice for both sexes. TV and movie people never have skid marks. No woman is turned on by seeing the nicotine stains in your jockeys. Same goes for the guys not wearing under clothing. Shit stains in your jeans aren't so good either. +Guys, if you are expecting to have sex, take a shower or at least wash your cock. You want it sucked? No woman wants to be a dirty cock sucker - that's just nasty. Just for the guys, if you don't have underwear on, pull your own zipper down. If any skin gets caught in the zipper, it hurts like hell and your night will be over before it begins. Your lady friend might be in too big a hurry when pulling down your zipper. +Chapter 2 +A few facts guys should know that happen mainly in fantasy land. +Because she let you touch her tit doesn't mean she has an instant orgasm. You want her hot? You have to work at it. +Don't rush to jab fingers into her vagina. She'll let you know when she's ready. I'm told it hurts or feels funny if not lubricated properly. +Just because you want to fuck her doesn't mean the feeling is mutual. Stay cool and go with the flow. She'll let you know when and how she wants it when she's ready. Don't rush her and do a lot of wooing. Women like that. +Only in stories do the women seem to lose all control and want to be lifetime slaves to some idiot just because he has a big cock. +What is a big cock anyway? In some stories, it's 6"" while in others it is 11"" and even in others 14"". Same with width - some of the stories have them bigger than beer cans. I'm afraid if she needs something 14"" long and as wide as a beer can she would never be happy with anyone I've ever met. +I remember seeing these girls that were probably more than I could handle. My motto to them has always been: ""I can't do them much good but they could do me a hell of a lot."" +More knowledge: If your woman has false teeth and wants to give you a blowjob, let her remove said teeth. You do not need her to accidentally bite your dick. It hurts and might make it unusable for awhile. The warm gums feel great around it. Don't kiss her till she puts her teeth back in her mouth and maybe even use mouthwash. +I asked for opinions and just received one from one of my lady friends. Here is what this person had to say: +""Sorry to say but that last part is a crock of shit. If she has false teeth, under no circumstances should you ask her to take them out. You'll think your dick is in a pussy that's just been fist fucked by a 10 ton truck....it'll be so loose that you won't feel anything. Nothing she can do will change it as without teeth the space in the mouth is so great that no cock can fill it and make it feel good for the guy. Furthermore, her jaws will ache so much from trying to suck and not being able to apply proper pressure...the only way she could would be if the guy had one of those 14 inches, wide as a beer can cock you mentioned earlier."" +See, I'm open-minded enough to even grant other opinions in my story. Besides, it makes sense to me. Teeth or no-teeth, that is the question. As they say on Fox news, ""You decide."" +Toilet seats always seem to be a big issue. Never know why, if it's up and you have to take a shit or a woman wants to use it, put the damn thing down. If you have to take a piss, then lift it up. Don't piss on the seat. Women don't like to sit on a toilet seat that is all wet. If you pissed on it, then wipe it off. Your lady will be glad you did. +If you invited her over to your pad, you might want to put the seat down for her. If she goes to take a piss before you make love and the seat is up and she falls into the bowl, your night of love making will be over. +Let's see, where else can I help you out here? Oh, after making love, compliment her on her lovemaking even if it wasn't the greatest. Smooch with her a little before rolling over and going to sleep. If you want to be the big man on campus then sleep on the wet spot. Show her that you really care. If you do that and wake up in the middle of the night, you can probably get another hunk while she is sleeping. +You have to remember that these are only suggestions and ideas. They don't work for everyone. +One final thought. If you have to pay her for the sex when you are finished, then do whatever the fuck you want. She'll be back. +Hope these suggestions help you out with your sex life. I'm always here to help. +* + _I entered this in the 'How To' contest.

Some people have a desire to submit, some have a desire to dominate. +This is the way I trained Allen. +People very quiet a bit. I will explain why I have these basic rules and steps. The most important thing is to be consistent. +1\. Never let him know what your ultimate goal is. Never explain why you are doing something. ( I.e. a perfect slave or husband do you want him to only be a cuckold or a perhaps a sex slave or even just a house slave.) +2\. He must admit that he wants you to dominate him. (This is an important step allowing him to come to terms with what he truly wants.) Tell him he will be used to please your desires. +3\. Chastity belt is a must. He doesn't need to be let out. He must never be allowed to be alone without a chastity belt. He will masturbate. No matter how much you believe him don't trust him not to masturbate. A caged slave is an obedient slave. I watch my slave when he showers and cleans his cage then it goes back on when he is done cleaning it. This is also a great way to show you are in charge. He might complain that it is uncomfortable at night due to erections. This will pass. Tell him if he ever asks to remove it he will be punished. Enforcement is required +4\. Blackmail. This is a must. If he doesn't think you will expose him he will not obey. You will hate dominating him. If he is your husband you may never expose him but he doesn't need to know this. This will bring him the desire of being a true slave. Every submissive has a true desire of being forced but has a hard time admitting it. +5\. Photos and videos . Once you have him in chastity he will begin to obey you take some pictures or videos of him in panties, having a butt plug in his ass etc. great for blackmail and have fun with it. Sometimes I make Allen watch his videos of being fucked. +6\. Paddling. On a average I will paddle Allen at least once a month now. 20 strokes with a paddle. In the beginning it was almost every day till I noticed that he excepted me as his Mistress. When he automatically assumed I was going to paddle him I knew he was ready. Every time he didn't obey another 20. I would tie him down and gag him and then punish him. I would lean over and ask him if he was going to obey once done. Use force with every stroke. It was almost always 20 sometimes 10 depending upon what it was. I can't stress enough how important this is. His bottom may turn black and blue but it will recover. Remember he asked to be your slave and remind him of that often. At least 3 times a day in the beginning I was reminding him he asked to become my Slave. +7\. Cross dressing. Cross dressing is strongly recommended. You need to remove his masculinity. I didn't really care for the cross dressing but it has grown on me. He has removed all his underwear and cut them up in front of me. Have him pick out his own clothes when you go shopping. Start with panties and move forward this will allow you to see his mental progress ( Psychological) Allen now only has panties, pantyhose, bra's, nighties skirts , tops and high heels as well as a wigs. Of course he still has his work clothes but I have him wearing ladies pants and shirts in public. These clothes look like men's for the most part. (Once again psychological) When Allen is dressed as a sissy he is even more submissive. I am bi sexual so I love it when I have him servicing my pussy with his mouth. He wears his skirts and his wigs in the house when the kids are not home. This has become intoxicating for me. He also wears his makeup and his nightie to bed every night. This is to reinforce his submission. +8\. Pegging. A man can reach orgasm by hitting his prostate. You do not need to remove his chastity belt in order for this to succeed this is a different type of orgasm this is a prostate orgasm he will crave for more. The longer he is caged the better his orgasms will become by pegging. This is common. I peg Allen almost every other night unless he is being punished. He has come to terms this is the way he gets to cum. I have him wearing a butt plug on a regular basis. I have him assume a position and I put it in him only I am allowed to remove it. By training his ass to except the butt plug he is able to receive my strap on. Now he can't cum unless he has it in his ass. I am very proud my accomplishment. If he squirts out of his dick he must lick it up. ( Mental ) he know does this without being told. This is very exciting for me. At first it Disgusted me but like many other tasks this has turned out to be a turn on. +9\. Chores. Give him a list of chores you want him to do. If he fails punish him. Be realistic. I occasionally have to do chores. If he fails I punish him. +10\. Eating. I have heard many people say they feed their slave in a dog bowl. This can be difficult if you have kids. My husband is only allowed to eat what is on his plate never anything more. If he works late he eats in the bedroom in his dog bowl so I can watch him. Seldom does he get warm food. Some feed their slaves dog food. I have not started this yet I might do this as a punishment though. +11\. Humiliation. I have briefly spoken about humiliation. You may ask what or how and if I should. The answer YES you should and have FUN with it. My slave sucks my strap on every night while I watch tv at 9:00. This is a very dominating feeling for me. He also rides a dildo on the table while I eat. He uses a strap on to please me. I whisper in his ear how nice it is having a real dick inside me. He is also required to refer to his dick as a clit and his ass as a pussy. If he ever calls it anything then anything other than his pussy and clit he receives 20 lashes with my paddle. He is also a stool for me my slave is used as a stool in the shower. I do not acknowledge him at all when I am sitting on his back in the shower. +12\. Sleeping. My slave sleeps in a dog cage in the closet in a diaper with a padlock on the cage so he doesn't bother me. +13\. Enjoy having a slave and have fun never be afraid of pushing it." +646,Mixing with Vanilla,IvanMazlow,How To,2015-08-01,2015-08-02,2022-01-04 08:36:19,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/mixing-with-vanilla-pt-01,1. Safely introducing power exchange into relationships. 2. Introducing D/s into vanilla relationships.,"['Advice', 'Bdsm', 'D/S', 'Power Exchange', 'Relationships']",4.18,"Really, this is one of those situations that I've heard of so many times that it actually contributed to my impetus to start writing about all of this. I recently received a mail from a man in a long term relationship requesting advice. He indicates that while this relationship of his is healthy and solid, it's also exclusively vanilla, and he wishes to explore his dominant side. And further, that he feels his partner has submissive tendencies that would make adding elements of D/s to their sex life mutually enriching and exciting. And I feel that is so commonplace that I thought it might be useful to finally address it directly. +The truth is, if you are in a relationship and you identify strongly with a dominant or submissive nature, and you feel your partner has an unexpressed correspondingly opposite inclination, odds are you're completely right. If you do have this tendency, it would be difficult to imagine that it does not manifest in your behavior. And since you're in a relationship, it follows that this behavior is compatible with their preferences. +Introduction. +The first thing I'd say to those in this situation is that I don't really think the bedroom is the best venue to introduce more structured power exchange into an existing relationship. We tend to view sex as the culmination of a relationship; the consummation of a courtship. That courtship might be as brief as an evening in a nightclub or as long as long as months or years of dating. The point is that what happens before the sex sets the tone to be agreed upon by the physical intimacy that 'seals the deal' so to speak, even in casual contexts. +Since sex is largely by default considered sort of a later stage in a romantic relationship, and that stage is founded on the what a couple shares prior to it, trying to change the tone of a relationship with sex is often a bit like trying to alter the terms of a contract after it's signed. Often a partner can feel disturbed, tricked, alienated, or even cheated. Confronted by it, they can have an 'I didn't sign up for this' reaction. +So, my usual suggestion is to first try a more subtle sort of renegotiation of selective aspects of the relationship, slowly and easily, over a little bit of time where the partner can experience and accustom to it. In other words, try consciously demonstrating positive aspects of dominant behavior consistently in other parts of the relationship and allow them to respond. Hopefully, if we're correct in our suspicion of a submissive nature, that response should be a positive one. +Stated differently, a dominant can subtly try power exchange on for size for both parties, rather than engaging in some awkward discussion that abruptly risks alienation and rejection. The more open talk about power exchange can be postponed until after a positive example has been set for it, to show your partner what you have in mind, rather than resorting to some abstract hypothesis that might seem frightening. +In a sense, dominants have it easier than submissives in this situation. The reason being, a dominant essentially builds this social construct that others will encounter and inhabit to the degree they wish to be submissive to it. A dominant can build this structure on his own, so to speak, without requiring cooperation. But a submissive who builds such a construct is essentially being dominant, and not likely to draw a lot of personal emotional satisfaction from the arrangement. So submissives in this situation would need an entirely different approach that we can discuss another time. +Additionally, it has the benefit of giving the nascent dominant an opportunity to stick their 'toe in'. Often times in relationships there are things that we are lead to believe that we want, that we should want, that will make us happy and satisfied, but out self awareness and insight were mislead upon. And taking a little 'test run' might just alter their views of what they really do want in a relationship. +In discussion, once, when relating basically this approach that I'm about to share, a friend who was incidentally a lady who I have great respect and affection for, complained that she felt this approach was overly manipulative. I respect that opinion, and people who conducted their relationships in that straight-forward, 'face value' fashion in which she conducted hers. But I stated why I disagreed and eventually she came to.. well, to still object but a little less firmly, to be honest. But, there was concession! Before commencing I'd like to share the grounds that I disagreed upon, now, as I think they'll be pertinent in a cautionary and instructive sort of way. +As I've said elsewhere, the difference between being a good, healthy dominant, and being manipulative, lies in the simple criteria of being responsible and accountable for the behavior that you compel in a partner. It's similar to the difference between a parent offering a sweet to a child as a reward and an adult using a sweet to lure a child into a van. When you are a good dominant you are leading both of you to a better place based not just upon your nature, but theirs as well, and wherever you turn up, you take full responsibility and accountability for the results; good or bad, for better or worse. +What I'm describing is really sort of a snapshot, a microcosm, of really what it means to be a good dominant. Being a good dominant is not about handcuffs or floggers. It basically means consciously directing aspects of a relationship that are often more random, but doing so in a communicative way that takes full responsibility and accountability for the results. True, it's a more delicate process than an 'established' dominant undergoes with a 'professed' submissive when their relationship begins out under fully kinky pretext. But it's still the process of building intimacy and trust and guiding how a relationship evolves to the mutual satisfaction of both parties. That satisfaction, not incidentally, might not be reached, or at least reached so easily, if the burden of full responsibility was distributed equally between both partners. +To those who might call it deceptive, I'd counter that those who suppress their wants and don't communicate them to those with which they share intimacy are, in my opinion, the ones being deceptive. The ones who act happy and put on a brave face, and say they couldn't possibly be more satisfied. I honestly have yet to see a relationship where that approach truly benefitted either party in the long run. +What I'm advocating is carefully and selectively unveiling and manifesting, certain parts of your nature to a partner and allowing them the freedom to respond as their nature dictates. You then accept that response, and respect it, and continue to move ahead, whatever that response is. And further, you're doing this in a way that accepts the responsibility for the results staying positive. And I can't think of anything that could be more caring and honest. +I've also heard feminist concerns expressed in regards to this. Now, regardless of your views on sexism, yes, what I'm going to describe does quite closely follow the classical paradigm of a man leading a woman in a relationship in that classical, even archetypal image. I would use the term 'patriarchal', but in context that would make it a bit weird and awkward, for some, wouldn't it? But, as a matter of fact, if you look hard at the old images of Valentinos and Casanovas and the classical, good, old-fashioned lover-boy romantic man, truly, it is great, if mostly vanilla dominant behavior. They whisk a woman off her feet and lead her to follow effortlessly along an enchanted experience of his construction and selection but to her delight dictated by her nature, but to their mutual enjoyment. Often he coaxes her beyond her demure, inhibited inclinations. That's all not such a bad image to keep in mind as a dominant. And yes, I'll even confess, that old fashioned assignation of gender roles is still most common and popular among both sexes. +But! It needn't be that way. A swashbuckling contemporary lady can lead her liberated gentleman along in exactly the same fashion. Or a gentleman can lead another gentleman, lady can lead another lady, or whatever combination. Archetypes convey an idea, not a literal blueprint. And I support anyone's right to conduct their own relationships however they see fit; sub or dom. +So, I'll break this down into three sections. First we'll discuss how to set up that space. Second, we'll discuss what to do within that space. And third we'll cover how to progress that space towards that 'talk' and moving it into more intimate, bedroom situations. +Setting up the space. +In a situation like we've described, as we said, there is likely already some dominant and submissive dynamic established. So, we want to introduce these changes in very specific and separated and defined contexts. In other words, you're building up this alternative structure in specific times and ways and allowing them to respond in a way that they so far haven't frequently done in the relationship. This little experiment will be most effective if it has a fairly definable start and finish and is fairly easily distinguishable from the way your relationship normally operates outside of those boundaries. +Part of the reason is that you want your partner to notice that contrast. You want this behavior distinguished from the norm, the usual, that she's experienced in your relationship thus far, and hopefully to eventually come to prefer this new one. However, you don't want the contrast in behaviors to be so stark as to be shocking or overwhelming in scope so that they might seek to escape them to the more comfortable and familiar space of your usual relationship roles and dynamics. +Also, you want it differentiated from your usual interactions for the more pedestrian use of referring back to it later in your discussions. This way they can say something like, 'I really enjoyed this evening,"" or, ""Something about you seemed different last night,"" and it can actually provide fodder for healthier discussion. Discussion which, incidentally, they can approach you on, broaching this formerly awkward topic that you might have been fretting talking about. Or, you can ask, ""Did you enjoy the other night,"" giving you an easier way to review their reactions, and thus to modify your approaches in successive sessions. +So, where does one put this separate time to try out your new dominant tendencies? If you have a date night or some other 'together time', either in a structured way or just based upon how your schedules tend to work out, that is the ideal window. If you don't have a 'date night' or maybe something like those lazy Sundays that you spend together recuperating from the week, this is the perfect way to start one. After all, what romantic partner doesn't want a little more attention dedicated to enjoying each other's company away from other demands and distractions? +Whether it's a new thing or a modification of a standing habit, both are equally useful. After all, a conspicuous change to behavior in a long standing routine can be just as noticeable as an entirely fresh new habit. And your taking the noticeable initiative in improving your relationship will almost always make your partner gratefully receptive to the newer behaviors that you plan on adopting. +As I always say, start this out slow. Once date night for a couple of weeks is a good start. It will give them time to notice this new side of you and to recognize some consistency in it emerging. It will also give them time to accustom and consider how they wish to respond. +This period might also require some adjustment to your approach. One size does not fit all, and missteps do happen. It could be it comes on a bad night, or some part of the evening just doesn't go well. Or maybe they don't respond well to your more subtle demonstrations, at first. +Don't be discouraged. Keep this new special time of yours 'sacred' and simply be persistent and adjust your approach according to what you learn in the process. And do not think the time is wasted if it turns out to take a little longer than you initially had hoped. This attentiveness and insight developed on your part is an important part of the process, and this time isn't only for their benefit, but yours, learning to find ways to persuade them to respond. +And only when you notice this period yielding that consistent, positive response from them, three weeks or three months later, you can begin 'upping the dosage' to maybe longer sessions, or two sessions a week. And we'll cover that process of adjustment later in the section on progression. +We'll cover that after the more delicate process of guiding that progress in the next section. + +" +647,More on Haiku: Anthropomorphism,jthserra,How To,2020-12-30,2020-12-30,2022-01-04 08:36:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/more-on-haiku-anthropomorphism,More on haiku.,"['Anthropomorphism', 'Haiku']",4.88,"Anthropomorphism. That's quite a word. The first time I saw it, I wondered if it was contagious. When I realized it was a magazine editor who used the word referring to some of my haiku, I quickly looked it up in the dictionary. The definition read: an interpretation of what is not human or personal in terms of human or personal characteristics: Humanization. Since the magazine accepted none of my haiku, I quickly realized anthropomorphism was not good in haiku. While anthropomorphism (big brother to personification) can be interesting and artistic in some poetry and prose, most haiku editors avoid it. rain heavy on leaves already bent boughs strain more and trees cry their pain The trees didn't cry, and watching them, try as I might, I never heard them cry. They can't cry: they are trees! As poetic as the thought of crying trees may be, my job as a haiku student is to impart an observation without applying my own emotion or judgement to the haiku. Perhaps a better way to write the haiku would be: heavy rains boughs bend in the wet trees lean Yeah, not a particularly good haiku, but the rains, the boughs and trees are basically doing what they do, they fall heavily, they bend and lean. In this haiku, I have observed the events, allowing you, the reader to experience the event and then impart your own meaning to it. gardenia winks fragrant flutter eyes steals my breath Ah, you caught me. The gardenia has no eyes and does not wink. While it may seem to wink at me, that is not what happened. gardenia blossom its fragrance steals my breath Hmm... A bit better, but can the fragrance steal something? I'll have to think on that. After I finally figured out what anthropomorphism was, I sent off a new batch of haiku to the same editor. I worked hard removing any poems from the submission that had any hint of anthro... (you know what I mean here). leaves flutter anticipating rain Oops, I thought I fooled him. But here is the editor’s response, ""...this is a human perception leaves flutter for whatever causes, and we deduce rain this is not the reality of the leaf, then, but of the mind and therefore logical not intuitive."" Damn, I had done it again. I wonder, can I try to consider the moment without imparting a human perception onto the leaves, or the rain for that matter. Let’s think… leaves flutter, a bird’s wings flutter, but I suppose the leaves could flutter. But how to introduce the rain as intuitive in nature, not my logical deduction. A thought… a scent of rain. That could bring in the rain. What if I tried: leaves flutter with a chilly breeze scent of rain Better? Or did I lose the moment in an attempt not to impart my perception onto the events. And did I also impart a twist, did I add a Kireji or cutting word and did the haiku have suchness? Oh my, wait… I haven’t mentioned those yet have I? Well, I will, you see not only were some of my early submissions anthropomorphic, there were other issues. The rest of my haiku submitted back then were returned for a number of other reasons that I will discuss in future articles. I had a stack of several dozen haiku that I realized, in spite of how well my friends received them, were not very good. But I didn't give up; I was beginning to learn something. I was beginning to learn how little I really knew about haiku. So stick around, read some more of my bad haiku and see what I did wrong and occasion see what I may have done right. In the end, bit by bit, it does tend get better.

Yes Virginia, there is no Santa Claus and haiku doesn't necessarily have seventeen syllables. And even worse, we have to think about things like anthropomorphism and suchness. Well calm down now folks, we aren't alone in our search for haiku. There are volumes of books on the subject. I will try to touch on a few of these, the ones I have used and found helpful in my studies and writing. +It all goes back to my days in college in the mid-seventies. Yeah, I'm one of those flower child wannabes who was born just a few years late. Anyway, back in college I had some interest in haiku, so I picked up a book. It was a paperback, with an off yellow color. Titled simply The haiku Anthology, it was a nice anthology of some ""English Language haiku."" Little did I know, back in those days, I bought one of the best haiku books available. +Yes, that simple little anthology has been expanded through three editions to hold over 800 haiku. The book, edited by Cor van den Heuvel, has an excellent preface that discusses the history of English Language haiku and goes into some detail about syllable count, the use of nature and seasons, and more. I recommend that you put this book at the top of your booklist. It is available in paperback for around $15.00 (well worth the price). It had been out of print for some time, so when the newest edition hit the shelves, I think I turned a few heads in the bookstores. Once the people realized it was just me jumping for joy and not some passionate escapade between the bookshelves they turned away again. +Another book I found very helpful in re-learning haiku was The Haiku Handbook, How to Write, Share, and Teach Haiku. This book written by William J. Higginson, with Penny Harter, covers the history of haiku, the art of haiku (including excellent discussions on the basic precepts of the art), teaching haiku, and other forms. It was in reading this book that I began to understand how much I did not really understand in haiku. This book forms some of the basic first steps in learning and re-learning haiku. The last part of the book discusses other forms of Japanese poetry including tanka, haibun, senryu, renga and dodoitsu. And no, I did not dodoitsu on your shoe! +R.H. Blyth -- I let the name here stand alone. If you read my earlier article on suchness, you might have seen the name. Blyth is often quoted when it comes to haiku because he has said so much on the subject. He has written, if I may stoop to infomercial techniques, not one, not two, not three, four or five... but six large volumes on haiku. These include A History of Haiku Vol. One and A History of Haiku Vol. Two, and ""Haiku Volumes 1-4"". +While these books are out of print (according to Amazon.com) I have seen A History of Haiku, and the first volume of Haiku some available through some Used Bookstores. I was able to pick up the rest of the books at Ebay. I did pay a pretty penny for several of the volumes, but for me it was worth it. The four-volume set starts with Haiku Volume 1, Eastern Culture which discusses the form as written in Japanese. In this volume Blyth discusses the spiritual origins of haiku, the state of mind for haiku, haiku and poetry, the four great haiku poets and the techniques of haiku. He includes hundreds of Japanese haiku as examples throughout all volumes. The other volumes discuss the use of season's in Japanese haiku: Haiku Volume 2, Spring-Summer, Haiku Volume 3 Summer-Autumn, and Haiku Volume 4 Autumn-Winter. I could go on and on about what is good, and bad about these volumes, instead I will close this article with a haiku by my favorite of the four pillars of haiku: Issa. +In the wintry grove, Echoes Of long, long ago. +There are several other books that have been published since I first wrote and published this review. The books were written and/or edited by Jim Kacian with several others. I have not had the opportunity to have read the books but, since Jim Kacian was the editor who so graciously took my numerous haiku submissions and took the time the provide such insightful feedback, I had to mention his books. +Haiku in English: The First Hundred Years, edited by Jim Kacian, Philip Rowland, et al. I also note that that a glimpse of red (The Red Moon Anthology of English-Language Haiku) and several books on Haibun are also available. Haibun? you ask, that's a whole another article I'll have to write. +In the meantime, let's keep talking haiku. Watch for more on books in upcoming articles. Until then, thanks for reading. You may want to refer back to my earlier articles published here on Literotica: Not Seventeen, What is Haiku?, More on Haiku: Anthropomorphism, and More on Haiku: Suchness if you have not read them already." +649,More on Haiku: Kireji,jthserra,How To,2021-01-05,2021-01-05,2022-01-04 08:36:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/more-on-haiku-kireji-1,"Kireji or ""Cutting Words""",[''],4.45,"**_More on Haiku: Kireji or ""Cutting Words""_** +In reading and writing haiku, there are many facets to consider, so many in fact that Jane Reichhold in her article ""Fragment and Phrase Theory"", made the astute comment: _""The fact that the smallest literary form - haiku - has the most rules never ceases to amaze and astound.""_ Earlier articles posted here at Literotica discussed many of these rules and facets, however, one of the most important to consider is the kireji or ""cutting word"". Reichhold thought it so important that she discusses it first in her article: + _""First and foremost, and certainly the guideline which I have consciously or unconsciously followed the longest, is the one that a haiku must be divided into two parts. This is the positive side of the rule that haiku should not be a run-on sentence. There needs to be a syntactical break dividing the ku into two parts. From the Japanese language examples this meant that one line (5 onji) was separated from the rest by either grammar or punctuation (in the Japanese an accepted sound-word - kireji - was as if we said or wrote out ""dash"" or ""comma"").""_ +It is through this break that the true beauty of haiku is realized. With the break, or ""cut"" the reader is forced, through imagination, to relate or reconcile the two parts of the haiku. With effective juxtaposition, the haiku artist can create a significant surprise or provide insight the reader had either not considered before, or had instinctively known all along, but missed in the observation. In fact, some experts consider the true strength of haiku relies upon this cut and juxtaposition: + _""Though it can be presented on the page in three lines, a haiku structurally consists of two parts with a pause in between. Its power as poetry derives from the juxtaposition of the two images and the sense of surprise or revelation that the second image produces.""_ (1. pg 3) +In Japanese haiku the cut is created through the use of an actual word, a kireji. Harold G. Henderson detailed a number of kireji in his book An Introduction to Haiku including, for example: _ka_ which is merely a verbal question mark and _yo_ a verbal exclamation mark. Obviously a translation of these words will not yield any equivalent English words. Concurrently, in his article titled ""The Disjunctive Dragonfly"", Richard Gilbert states: + _""Direct imitation of kireji is not linguistically possible for English haiku; however, an application of analogues miming the function of the original is a possibility.""_ +In other words, often in English haiku, actual punctuation is used to create the cut. This is accomplished using a number of different punctuations including: + **Ellipsis:** + _hot afternoon... only the slap slap of a jump rope_ Anita Virgil (2. pg 241) + **Dash:** + _lone red-winged blackbird riding a reed in high tide— billowing clouds_ Nicholas Virgilio (2. pg 256) + **Semicolon:** + _I stop to listen; the cricket has done the same._ Arizona Zipper (2. pg 327) +Commas and periods are also used as well as simply not using any punctuation and letting the language determine where a natural break would occur: + _unpainted porch fog comes to a closed door_ Jane Reichhold (2. pg 159) +In the above haiku, Reichhold actually helps you with finding the break by indenting the second and third lines, creating the cut between the unpainted porch and the fog. +In reviewing the above haiku, notice how the cut in each one highlights a juxtaposition of two distinct images or concepts. With each one, this juxtaposition is followed with an enlightening surprise or aha! Often you have heard crickets, only to get close and then experience a sudden silence. While you had experienced that before, the haiku offers a wonderful reminder of that experience as you are taken into a field or forest to experience the event through the haiku. Consider each of the above poems and search for the cut and the following enlightenment. This is the pure essence of haiku. +As further explained in ""A Message from Hoshino Takashi"" _""Kireji was introduced so that hokku (former name of haiku) could stand alone in its own right as it had been merely a part of a longer poem called waka and could not do so without kireji. This point is seldom understood. Thus, kireji (18 of them) make haiku complete. They appear in different places of a haiku, depending which kireji you use. Therefore, they also work as if they are a caesura, adding dynamism, depth and more complicated structure to haiku which would otherwise be flat.""_ +Takashi mentions 18 kireji in his recent article, while Henderson had listed 5 in the Appendix to his book which was originally published in 1958. Like the two examples provided above, these kireji are actually verbal punctuation marks in Japanese haiku. +While the cut is important to haiku, care should be taken to avoid overemphasis of the break in the poem. Too much emphasis on a cut will unduly weight a single line, leaving the other lines to fade to appearing as only background for the highlighted line. For example: + _On a bare branch a crow has settled down to roost. In autumn dusk._ Basho (translated by Carter 1991) +In this translation, the indentation and the period make the second line so obvious it risks unbalancing the overall haiku. Perhaps a better solution would have been to choose one or the other means of creating the cut. +After considering the importance of kireji, perhaps readers will better understand some of the elements that distinguish exemplary haiku, from the mediocre. When reading and writing, haiku enthusiast should savor the wonderful moments of enlightenment a well crafted haiku will product. Most often the wonderful feeling a reader and writer gets in considering an excellent haiku is created through a prodigious us of a kireji or cut.

While I briefly touched upon nature in What is Haiku, the subject bears further consideration. +Historically, nature has been a prime facet in classical Japanese haiku. Harold G. Henderson, in his Haiku in English outlined a set of rules for classical Japanese haiku. He states: + _""As a general rule a classical Japanese haiku:_ + _1\. consists of 17 Japanese syllables (5-7-5)_ + _2\. contains at least some reference to nature (other than human nature)_ + _3\. refers to a particular event (i.e., it is not a generalization)_ + _4\. presents that event as happening now -- not in the past"" (P14)_ +Henderson's rule number one was covered in some detail, and rules number three and four were briefly discussed in my previous articles. As detailed in the above, nature is an integral part of the vast majority of classical Japanese haiku. For most of these haiku, nature is presented in a seasonal context. As Bruce Ross discusses in his preface to Haiku Moment An Anthology of Contemporary American Haiku: _""Perhaps the most significant element of haiku, aside from its allusive brevity, has been its identification with seasonal elements in nature.""(P-xxvii)_ Basho' (1644-94) offers an excellent example: + _on a withered branch a crow has settled autumn nightfall_ +With the ""autumn nightfall"" nature is presented here in a seasonal context. Often in Japanese haiku, the seasonal reference is not as direct. Many haiku contain kigo, or ""season-words"" which may only be connected with a season by convention. For example, in another of Basho's haiku: + _a family -- all leaning on staves and white haired -- visiting the graves_ +""visiting the graves"" represents the kigo. In Japan, ""visiting the graves"" is traditionally associated with mid-summer. Japanese readers, familiar with the tradition, immediately recognize the season and through that reference, nature is introduced into the haiku for them. Over the centuries Japanese haiku artists have amassed a long list of kigo based upon a relatively common culture throughout their country. +English language haiku writers and more specifically American haiku writers do not have as rich and abundant list of kigo available to them. The United States is basically a mix many different cultures, with people coming from vastly diverse histories. This diversity makes the consideration of a list of ""American"" kigo or ""English language"" an impossibility. While such obvious items as a snowman in winter and a pumpkin for autumn exist, more subtle things and cultural events will be lost to many readers. +Over a country as large as the United States, some obvious seasonal reference can lose significance. The subtle nuance of a first snowfall is lost to native southerners whose only knowledge of snow is from an annual viewing of ""White Christmas"". The diverse geographic, climatic and cultural landscape of the United States will make the development of a set of ""American"" kigo relatively useless. Concurrently, the majority of American haiku you will see will contain more of the direct seasonal references, if a season is referenced at all. +Changes in the modern world are beginning to affect haiku, especially with regard to seasonal references and nature altogether. Bruce Ross, in his Haiku Moment explains: _""The modern world, at least in the urban centers, has made it difficult to consistently maintain this sensitivity to nature and its cycles. (P-xxvii)""_ While Ross continues: _""Yet contemporary English-language haiku poets nonetheless are determining the significance of nature and of man's relation to nature in their haiku. (P-xxvii)""_ there is an increasing acceptance to haiku with little or no reference to nature. A haiku such as: + _a cat watches me across the still pond, across our difference_ +written by Paul O. Williams, published in Haiku Moment adapts nature to a more urban setting, while Alan Pizzarelli's haiku from The haiku Anthology, edited by Cor van den Huevel, seems to abandon nature altogether: + _game over all the empty seats turn blue _ +In spite of this increasing acceptance, and in deference to classical Japanese haiku, the vast majority of haiku today still attempts to embrace nature through either seasonal reference or direct observation. A well crafted haiku without a seasonal reference will bear additional scrutiny since it does stretch the tenants of classical haiku, but if it is good enough, it can be recognized. +Haiku students, poets and scholars often seem to make too much of the tenants or rules of haiku, at times seeming to pick nits while reading and evaluating individual haiku. There is often tenacity in their attempts to explain what is good and bad about a particular haiku. This tenacity is based upon a deep concern for most haiku enthusiasts. As Bruce Ross bemoans in Haiku Moment : _""One might, however, with trepidation, envision the failure of haiku in English as it grades finally into senryu, a Japanese poetic form similar in structure to haiku but emphasizing, usually in a humorous manner, human nature, rather than nature itself. (P-xxxii)""_ Nature should be recognized and appreciated in haiku today.

Now hold on a minute, don't you go looking at me rolling them eyes. Yeah, I said suchness and no, I'm not vacuuming without a vacuum bag. Suchness, say the word, let it roll slowly off your tongue, while I figure out what I'm gonna say next about it. +Seriously now, as I alluded in my earlier articles, haiku is something much more than seventeen syllables typed on a page. I even mentioned ""suchness"" in my article on anthropomorphism. Well now I am asking you to consider suchness. You know, I don't think the word is even in the dictionary, it certainly isn't in my spellchecker, it is lighting up my document like a Christmas Tree. +I'm going to need to get crafty to work this out. Ah yes, here we go: ""such"" is in the dictionary. I think we can work with that. My dictionary (Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary, 1980) defines such as: 1a. of a kind or character to be indicated or suggested. Woah, I'm scratching my head with you on that one. Let me skip on down the page a bit: 2a. having a quality already or just specified. Hmmm, I think I'll try to rope that one. +A quality already or just specified -- okay, something that already exists. Perhaps in other words -- a state of being. Okay, for our purposes we will define such as a state of being. Now let's look at ness, or I should say -ness since it is a suffix. He, he... I think that is officially the first time I have said suffix since I got out of high school. +Anyway, consider -ness. My dictionary defines -ness as: state: condition: quality: degree. So based upon our dictionary definitions, if you have suchness, you are in the state of a state of being. I wonder if that is better than being in the state of Mississippi. Oops, forgive me for that, it's been so long since I got run out of Mississippi. The tar and feathers wore off long ago. I keep talking like this, and they will be cooking up a new batch for me soon. +While I will not call suchness a rule, haiku is something that kind of transcends petty rules, suchness is desirable in haiku. The thought that you are observing something that has always been is kind of the idea. As an example, I refer to a haiku I had submitted, along with the response. +the fat mosquito is slow and dies +The editor's response: ""and what else would we expect? haiku is the capturing of a moment of insight but this is no surprise to anyone, so how are we enlightened? it does have suchness, but that in itself is not enough we seek the suchness that we discover we have known all along, but have forgotten, as r h blyth suggests"" +Ah, my haiku has suchness. That is good. Unfortunately, the poem was not accepted. Although it had suchness, it was perhaps too obvious. But dog gone it, the haiku had suchness. Since I had submitted a number of haiku, I still had more for the editor to consider. Well, I was disappointed once again. Here's another example: +the waves again and again +The editor responded, ""same as above."" Wow, although it was not accepted, I got suchness two times in a row. You see, I did find something in nature that was ""such,"" I just didn't find the surprise in the observation. I needed something more. I made note of the editor's comments and was encouraged to continue to strive for haiku. +Looking for inspiration I took my notes and started rummaging through my books. Yes, it looked like I still had a bunch to learn. I think I had worked out anthropomorphism and perhaps suchness, but, based upon the editor's comments, I was still lacking something in my haiku. +Where was I going to find what was lacking in my haiku? The answer was right there at my fingertips as I was grabbing my books. It was my books... and you ask, come on, really ask, ""What books?"" Well over the years I had been collecting poetry books and more recently I collected haiku books. Some were very good, others... well, not as good. I'll review a few of my favorites, but not right now. Watch for my next article: ""More on Haiku: Books"".

Tell him he doesn't know what he's missing and suggest you try a few things together to enhance what may become one of his favorite sexual activities. Obviously, be spanking clean (no pun intended) and invite him into the shower to help. If his misgivings about oral sex are that he's afraid to end up with a mouthful of hair, a shaving experiment is in order. +Even if your guy loves pleasuring you, he'd still love to get a good look at the object of his desire. Use a moisturizing shaving gel and be sure to use moisturizing lotion afterwards. You can either go for the bald look or perhaps get creative and shave the area into a triangle or anything your imagination comes up with. The shower is probably the best place to shave, but you can also lie in bed on a towel while he (carefully) experiments with a razor, lots of shaving goop and a small tub of warm water for rinsing. +Is it your natural taste your guy may not have acquired a fondness for? Women do tend to taste differently at different times of the month and after having a baby and probably all things hormonal. But you can make sure you taste yummy with any number of flavoured lubricants, lotions or potions available at your local adult toy store. If you have a 'Pleasure Chest' where you live, you've probably already tried your hand at this -- and a lot of other fun things. So in this day of thirty-one or more flavours meant to sweeten the pot, taste is no longer a problem. +As you know, there's always whipped cream and chocolate sauce or marshmallow sauce, etc. But I can't stress this point strongly enough: NEVER, NEVER use the microwave to warm anything that will end up anywhere near his delicates. The microwave warms unevenly and you may miss a hot spot that will take him out of the game for weeks -- and you out of the picture forever. This is not an urban legend of some sort; I know someone who lost their boyfriend by nuking ice cream for only 15 seconds, about 5 seconds too long. +Could the problem be, perhaps, that Mr. Right isn't quite sure how to please you? Tell him to relax and just start by licking the alphabet on your clitoris. Depending on how that goes, he can do it again a couple of times, going a little faster each time. When he does finally find what unique series of tongue flicks that drives you to the brink, give him a lot of encouragement. Yes, yes, yes may be enough, but it could stimulate you both if you 'talk.' Or 'talk dirty.' If you are this intimate, you know by now what works! +One thing he can do is to stiffen his tongue and use it like a small penis to explore all the nooks and crannies he's not visited before. This will give his tongue a cramp if done too long, so be sure to let him know as soon as you do if nothing is to come of this maneuver. +An advanced move, once he is comfortable with and has learned to enjoy your natural smells and taste is for him to press his nose against your clitoris and, while still using pressure, move up and down and side to side. This will cause wonderful clitoral tickles and also your clitoris and pelvic area will be engorged with blood so that you will be able to climax easier during intercourse, an added bonus. +Now he's extremely turned on both by your excitement and what he's been doing to bring you that pleasure. It's his turn. +But, wait, you ask. What about that old standard position called sixty-nine. Well, that's another article. Obviously you can't be totally into giving your best while being driven to the brink yourself. Taking turns not only extends foreplay, causing a larger set of fireworks later on but also allows you to know your partner as intimately as you can.

There's more to it than ya thought!,['Hair Cut'],3.93,"Writing this will be very therapeutic for me. These are things I wish I could say to people, but in real life you can't. So I'm going to post this here, in hopes that everyone learns a lesson. Maybe it will reach the far ends of the earth! Maybe the customers where I work will learn a lesson, and I'll never be irritated again! (Okay, I doubt it.) +I hope you all learn a very important lesson by reading this. Ya know, it's really for public safety. Hairdressers have sharp objects! And you have ears and eyes and other places that pointy things can poke into just fine! *evil laughter* But seriously, this is mostly tongue-in-cheek, but I mean every word. Enjoy! +* +1\. Bathe. +No really. You'd be surprised how many people don't. If you're worried about how you look to the point you actually get a haircut, wash your business before you come. As a side note, deodorant is non-toxic. Really. It won't hurt you. +2\. Don't bring sick kids. +Seriously. So you kept them out of school because they're a snot nosed brat. Wonderful! They should be on the couch watching movies and eating popsicles. For one, they are miserable and don't have the tolerance to sit and get messed with. Which equals a very unhappy, uncooperative customer. Secondly, I DON'T WANT THEIR GERMS! Ye Gods, if they cough one more time and don't cover their mouth, I'm gonna put their head in a plastic bag. *sweet smile* +3\. The ins and outs of bringing a picture. +This is a tough one. +First of all, pick a picture that is close to your hair type. If your hair is stick straight and thin, don't choose one that shows tousled waves that are full of volume. It ain't happenin'. And if you insist your hair be cut that way, please do not yell at me the next time because your hair didn't look like that. No kidding. I done tole' ya and tole' ya. +Secondly, don't choose a style that looks like it takes work to achieve, unless your hair is that exact type. If you don't like messing with your hair in the morning, don't pick it. Let's be honest. People who don't want to mess with their hair are either very short of time, not interested, or just plain lazy. When I don't do my hair- it's because I'm lazy. I've accepted that. So if you don't even like washing your hair, (such as the people in number one,) don't pick one that seems like it needs anything but a brush. +Lastly, what kind of face shape do you have? If you've got a honkin' honker, don't choose anything that points at your nose. If you have a double chin, don't pick one that points at it. Got it? +*sigh* But people do. Then they get their hair cut, then next time they say, ""Well, I think it showed off my double chin."" *slaps forehead* Yeah, I know. These are called 'danger zones' for a reason people! Some people just like to bitch and moan about their style, when it's not me. It's them. If you like nothing- if no length looks right, no style turns out like it's supposed to- well, I'm about to break your heart, but its your stupid hair and your ugly face. Just sayin'. *wink* +4\. Leave your kids at home if at all possible +For real. You're going to spend more time yelling at them, checking on them, and moving around in my chair than actually getting your hair cut. A.) you're holding me up and are going to make me run late. B.) It's hard to hit a moving target, so if your hair cut is jacked up, don't come crying to me! And C.) This is supposed to be 'your' time. Wouldn't it be much nicer to be able to sit back and relax, and enjoy your experience? And D.) If your kids are making you nuts, how do you think everyone else feels? Oh, and E.) 'Hairdresser' is not another word for 'babysitter'. So any unoccupied stylist most definitely would mind watching your children. (Okay, not all of them mind. But some people just don't like kids. Please don't pawn them off on us.) +5\. Sharing is Caring... but.. +I love getting secret, personal information. It's so exciting! It makes life worth living when your client tells you their deep dark secrets. But some people cross the line. +'Oh, yeah that's nice you're a drunk slut. Hmm. Yeah, once you sleep with more than one guy a the same bar you have to move on.' +'Oh really? A freckle? On his penis? Wow, I'm never going to be able to look at him the same again. Thank you for that!' +Those are true stories. Yes, I want to hear about your children that are fuck ups, yes I want to hear about your failing marriage, yes I want to hear about your grandma's sister's daughter's cousin's abortion. +But there is a line. There are boundaries. And some people just don't respect that. If I've done your hair for years, then yes, I'm okay with the more- secret-than-secret information. But if it's the first 'date', please don't go past first base. I'm a bit of a prude like that. *grin* +6\. Time management +If you are going to just walk in for a haircut, there are a couple things to keep in mind. First of all, you aren't as important as the other people sitting there that made appointments. It's just a fact of life. So don't get huffy that you aren't the next one in the chair. We'll get to ya when we get to ya. That's all there is to it. Secondly, just sit there with your mouth shut, please. We don't need your snide comments under your breath, or the snide comments you make out loud, for that matter. As a side note- don't get up and leave in a swirl of anger and irritation. Trust me. Because not a minute after you leave, an operator will open up, and we'll all get a laugh at the asshole that should have waited. *smirk* +On the flipside of this, if you make an appointment, please make a conscious effort to be on time. For one thing it's rude. You are now going to make us late for the rest of our day. Do you know how many unhappy people that makes? A lot. The customers get mad, we get flustered, and if you're at the end of the day with a picture of Angelina Jolie and you look like John Goodman, well, we aren't going to have much patience for you. *wink* +I learned in high school band that early was on time, and on time was late. So that is how I live my life. Arriving a couple minutes before your appointment time won't kill ya. However, don't get there fifteen minutes early and then bitch because you've been waiting. You're only allowed to piss and moan if the big hand on the clock swoops past your appointment time. Those are the rules! +7\. Be considerate +This goes along with the last one. Don't act like our time isn't as important as yours. Which means- don't call to make an appointment and then get nasty because we can't get you in yesterday. It also means- be on time for your appointment. Oh, I already said that? Well, that means it's the most important thing. If you're a habitual get-there-late kinda person... we don't like you. It's just a fact of life. I literally have people I book a half hour later than they say, which means they get there at least fifteen minutes late. If you're going to be that late- you're gonna get the world's worst haircut. Just another fact of life! *smile* +8\. Hairdressers are on earth to make you happy +Getting your hair done can be one of the most enjoyable experiences you can have. Ideally, you like your stylist, and they can become a friend of sorts. You share, you laugh, you cry. You may give gifts at Christmas, you may give extra money for their birthday. (hint hint. Haha!) We will always try to cater to your every need. A good hairdresser fawns over their clients. (Hey, we gotta make money somehow, right?) Don't take it too personally if you just can't get 'close' to your stylist. It either means they don't really like you, or that we've been burnt before. +As a stylist, you get invited to weddings and baby showers and funerals and the grandma's sister's cousin's niece's baptism. You feel like part of the family. You get so warm and fuzzy, and you just love this client. Then BAM! The client treats you like a servant. You're abruptly shoved back into your place. As the hairdresser, you aren't their friend. You will always be their hair person. You are a second class citizen. Which equals- burnt. +So if your hairdresser keeps to themselves, its because they don't want to get too close. Or they just aren't a people person, which means they're in the wrong line of work. Or again, they don't like you. *smile* +9\. Tips, tips, tips make the world go 'round +Some salons work so that the hairdresser isn't any better than a waitress. You live on tips! Thankfully, I'm not in that position. However... tips are nice. +I know it's in bad form to bring it up, but I think some people just really don't know you're 'supposed' to tip your stylist. Tips are appreciated when good service is rendered. And I'm telling you- I get a complex when I don't get a tip. Sometimes. I'm afraid they really hated their hair! If I see someone pull the exact amount out, I don't get a complex. I know that they just don't know, or don't care. +With the economy now-a-days (I am soooo tired of hearing that!) I know times are tough. But guess what? People didn't tip long before we entered this depression we're having. Typically, old people will leave you a 'change' amount. No lie. Where I work, a haircut for a senior citizen is ten dollars. Why do I get $1.10 or $1.20 a lot? Just make it a dollar. Silly. Younger people leave a buck or nothing at all. Middle aged people are the best tippers. Yes, yes, make it rain and toss me that fiver. That's right. *grin* +In all seriousness, a dollar or two isn't going to kill you. And if you're a woman getting a chemical service, please keep in mind I just fawned over you, brought you a glass of water, and devoted all my time and energy to you for at least two hours. I'm now drained. My eyes are clacking around in my head. Help me out. I'm so thirsty... *passes out* Okay, that was dramatic. But ya get what I'm saying. +My worst tip encounter was in beauty school. I did a full head highlight which cost $24.75. We got along wonderfully! We talked, we laughed, we joked.. Ah, it was a good time. I took her and her ticket up front so that she could pay. She literally, and I shit you not, tossed twenty-five dollars on the desk and said, ""Keep the change."" And walked out the door. +My mouth dropped, the girl working desk about fell down, and I stood there, gaping after her. The desk girl rang in the ticket, and got the quarter and very uncomfortably asked if I wanted it. I said, ""Sure. But that's not even enough to call someone who cares."" +Please don't ever, ever do that to someone! Keep your quarter! That's more of an insult than anything. +10\. That's all I've got +It has been wonderful writing this for all of you to enjoy. I mean no harm, and I hope I didn't offend anyone. I was trying to be funny and still get the point across. Please, be nice to your hairdresser. I bet she's having a rough day because of all the people that don't know these rules.

My name's Martika. I'm 30 and I'm a 3rd generation prostitute and I've been so for the last 16 years. I've always worked the streets, never even bothering to think about any other form of prostitution. Streetwalking is the one for me! +So...on with the programme! +Panties! There's no need for them! Whores need clean air around them...and panties do get in the way! A punter wants to get his cock out and stick it inside you, no messing. Waiting for a slag to get her panties down too? Too long, man! To me, it's a sign of being a 'proper' prostitute, not a wannabee... +Money first! EXTREMELY important! You're selling pussy, mouth and ass! You have to use your mouth in one way or another in this job so might as well use it to get the money! Always get the money first...and there's another thing which will lead on from this... +The 'Hook'! Nah, silly, not the hooker! But how do you get the punters to stop and talk to you. There's many tricks to use here. Remember the smoking thing that I put in the first installment? Well, if you see a punter coming towards you, especially on foot, then you can ask them for a light! See...easy! +Other ways are to say 'Hi, how are you?', or 'Looking for a date?' or 'What you up to, luv?'. Make it your own, what you say to punters, but make sure you get your money first. +Two points that lead off from this; Firstly, don't get disheartened when punters knock you back. Sometimes guys just like to make the first move. It can be bad for their egos to have a sexy woman do that. They may say no initially but drive or walk around a little before finally coming back to you. Sometimes a punter will see you getting picked up a lot and that jealousy or 'the grass is always greener' concept comes into play; they don't wanna be left out! +And, of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder; what one person find attractive other's don't. Some guys love blondes, some brunettes, some redheads. Some like long hair, some short. Some girls can't handle this perceived rejection and, of course, end up drinking more or taking more drugs. Make no mistake, this career can really fuck you up! If you can get through that phase, like I had, then you'll get to a stage - eventually - where you really don't give a shit what others think or feel. +Ok...secondly, you need a menu. What you're offering, sexually, for the punter. Generally that's oral, anal and vaginal. Stick with your price, don't drop them! Some punters try their luck - the fuckers!- and usually the other girls will tell them where to get off, but every so often, one'll try to one of the newbies and try their luck...and succeed! +Word gets around; all it takes is a punter to get rebuffed by a girl and they say 'Well, so-and-so just charged me x amount!' and the other slags get to hear that and you'll get serious shit from them from then on! +Don't be that girl, ok? Confidence and attitude, as discussed in the first article I wrote, should help you stick to your guns. +I tend to carry an empty purse in which I put all the money that I get for the night, that way I know what I've done. +Be wary of punters in cars. You only have a few moments to check them - and their car/van - out so just make sure on a few things. Firstly, is there only one punter there or more? Sometimes people can hide in the backseat. Make sure this ain't the case. Of course, sometimes both the driver and the other guy want to negotiate sex with you. If you know these guys or know of these guys, and know that they're ok, then fine. If not, give them a wide berth... +Someone hiding means trouble. Doesn't matter if your a new girl or a vet, sometimes a slag can be not 'on point' with these things and put herself in dangerous situations. +Case in point; I remember my mum not being 'on point' and slightly loaded one night and not realising there was someone hiding in the back of the car. She got in, drove to a car park and then the other guy got out and punched and kicked her. There they raped her, with no condoms, took her leather jacket and all the money she had. Luckily, in a way, it was near the start of the night for her so she hadn't lost much money, but bad luck in that she had to fuck punters bare before she could afford condoms for the rest of the night. Not good. Also what wasn't good was seeing her afraid to go out and scared for around 3 months before her AIDS test came back negative... +Please, I don't want you to end up like that! +Always take chewing gum with you. Why? After sucking off a few guys a time you'll find that your breath smells. Not a turn on for other +punters, let me tell you! So, every couple, I would say take a stick and chew it! +After you've fucked the punter I always like to reapply my lippy; punters tend to like that. Don't, for fuck's sake, start spraying around perfume! Their wives or significant others will know that they're cheating and that's their lives fucked as well as yours! +Another thing you'll pick up on is if the driver appears drunk or stoned. Obviously, getting in a car with someone that is any way +near to being intoxicated means a safety issue. Fact is they may get stopped by the police or you might end up in an accident. You wouldn't get into a car being driven by a pissed mate so don't get into one being driven by a punter who's the same!! +Never mix business with pleasure; ie, never date your punters outside of work. It never works. Likewise with friends. Somewhere along the line they'll get the 'green eyed monster', wanting you solely to themselves. I have known some slags getting verbal, emotional and physical abuse from their partners over this. After all, once a whore always a whore. +Of course, there's always exceptions to the rule; my husband has had a 'thing' about prostitutes since he was young and loves the 'honesty' of the career. The fact that they differentiate sex and love and you can have both with someone - ie, him - and just have the former with the punters. He understands 'the life' and has no ego over that. There's people, of both sexes, who are like that but you just might have to kiss an awful lot of frogs to find your prince, ok? +Self defence. A girl's gotta protect herself. I myself have no qualms about punching somebody's lights out. Been there, done that, before. It +partly boils down to attitude, partly skills. Get an attitude; appear vulnerable and then you might get attacked. Look tough and you won't. +However, do learn some self-defence! We all have something on us that we can use to protect ourselves. House keys, stiletto heeled shoes etc. +I've had to protect myself by taking my shoe off and stabbing a guy through the cheek for trying to hurt me. +And, that's just to say that attack can happen anywhere. Pubs and clubs; I have known disgruntled wives and girlfriends coming up to whores and getting angry that their 'men' have fucked us. Only natural, I guess. So keep yourself protected! +You'll find, as you go on, that you'll gravitate to having good strong friendships with fellow streetwalkers. Sex workers tend to hang out together. We're good people... +Hope that advice and info all helps you on your new career as prostitute. Do enjoy it... +Martika xx" +655,The Motel 6 Workout,Badlands1,How To,2020-10-14,2020-10-14,2022-01-04 08:40:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-motel-6-workout-1,"Fuck 24 Hour Fatness.

Looking like Mr. Olympia isn't a prerequisite to getting laid at a swing club. Staying in decent shape, though, can sometimes be the difference between a blowjob, and a romantic night with your hand. +After years of boarding at cheap motels — many of which charge by the hour — I've learned to fully utilize whatever my surroundings provide me. +Ever stayed at a Motel 6? If you haven't, it's time! +If the beds could talk in these places, they sure as fuck wouldn't sound like Tom Bodett. Cheap motels are mobile fuck pads. I recommend you crack that piggy bank, and splurge on a standard — they're all standard — room at your friendly, neighborhood Motel Sex. You're in for a rare treat. +""Does that blood stain on the carpet look like Richard Nixon's profile, or it just me?!"" +""I have a feeling whatever I ate off the pillow wasn't a mint."" +""I hope they don't charge extra for this severed hand under the bed."" +And through it all, most Motel 6 accommodations are well-kept, and comfortable. You're not gonna find room service, or even maid service at these venues, but your $39.95 will secure you access to a bed, chair, nightstand, table, and television. +To the untrained eye, these disparate items seem solely like what they were intended to be. To the Motel 6 frequent flier, however, these amenities represent your own, personal workout center. +If one is resourceful, you'll find yourself performing tricep dips with the chair, incline push-ups with the table, and decline push-ups with the nightstand. Rest between sets on the bed, while watching a bikini-clad Gabrielle Anwar in reruns of Burn Notice. +Take advantage of Motel 6's free ice and robust, plastic drinking receptacles — which hold sumptuous adult beverages — to keep you hydrated, during your exercise routine. +Feel the need for a little cardiovascular, but find yourself hesitant to jog the ominous, pitch black field adjacent almost every Motel 6? No worries. Seems like a majority of these discount accommodations come complete with stairwells to a second, exciting level. Run these bastards for an hour, or so. +Wanna get really fuckin' adventurous? Strap on a backpack full of phone books — said directories can be found in the nightstand of your temporary lodging — and manipulate this instant stair climber. +You'll be astounded at the effectiveness of a Motel 6 Workout. +Home gyms are more worthless than sending Sean Connery a curling iron for Christmas. If you wanna stay fit, you will. +Look around you. See that road out there? There are hundreds of thousands just like it all over the planet. Go out and run on it. You'll attain the same results as jogging on your expensive treadmill. +Wishin' you had more upper body strength, but can't afford gym fees? What's that beneath your Doc Martens? Twenty square feet of floor? Bust out a thousand push-ups. +Why waste money on useless fitness center memberships, when you could be spending that cash on trips to swing clubs, or nude motel parties? Your home gym is all around you. Feel free to use it anytime you'd like. You'll never have to wait in line for a machine, nor conform to business hours. +Before government stole my house, I had a set of weights in my basement I'd used regularly, since high school. As a matter of fact, I do resemble Arnold in his prime — Arnold Palmer, of course. I didn't work out for health purposes, so much as the pair of warm beers I put back, during each session in my cellar's soiled surroundings. +Aside from making your trips to swing clubs more productive, you'll be able to climb that flight of stairs without becoming winded, or lift that box of Playboys without feeling like somebody shoved a red, hot poker up your ass. +What follows is a sojourn into the swinging scene, during which my regular exercise routine came in handy: +The hinges exploded off the door. +The old man launched from the rear of the decrepit house. Stumbling forth on a left foot minus toes, he pushed his hip replacement to its limits. +I hadn't been laid in a week, and this arthritic bastard — wielding his cane like a broadsword — wasn't gonna make my quest for copulation any easier. +""Get the hell off my property, you son of a bitch!"" the decaying geezer shrieked. +Southern California palm trees danced with their regular partner — a warm breeze. The Sun lulled tomcats to sleep, on heated curbs, that were the perfect temperature for snoozing. All around had been peace, and serenity— +And then, the fossilized fucker had to ruin everything. +Gazing between my legs, I was still in shock over the fact Tracy was swallowing the entire thing. It had only happened once in the past, and I'd been certain I would never find another woman with such a resume-worthy skill again. +Now, with the irate geriatric tripping toward us, it looked like I wouldn't get to enjoy this aberrant occurrence. +Amid gentle ocean gusts, the blanched pages of gay porn rags — left in the elements for years — had been fluttering, making delicious rippling sounds. The White Trash backyard — replete with a swimming pool filled with opaque water — was littered in 'em. +That was the antiquated asshole's thing: guys with cocks that could be seen from six states away. Gray groin liked his men more hung than wet laundry from a clothesline. +And that's where I came in. The debilitated dude loved watching my nine iron drive deep into whichever chiseled chiquita he could score from an afternoon's Internet safari. +Like targets in an arcade, he'd line 'em up, and I'd knock 'em down. I'd get my minimum dose of sex for the day; he'd receive the eyeful he craved; and we'd part ways. +Every six months, the old man would ring me up. We'd coordinate a time, and I'd drive to his Hud home, to put on a display. +His house was filthy, just like the women he provided. Dirty dames were my target demographic. Thus, we worked well together...for a while, anyway. +Whether fucking in one of two bedrooms — which reeked of things made prior 1900 — or in the backyard, the ladies and I put on a presentation that seemed to please. +Mind you, we're talkin' an era when AOL was cutting edge, and dial-up modems were the rage. As such, securing sex online was more difficult, back then, than playing dodge ball with a hand grenade. Thus, what the old man was doing was definitely impressive. +On this particular afternoon, however, things went more sour than milk, years after its expiration date. +Tracy was the latest trailer tart my elderly friend had hogtied. +""Gary says you got a huge cock,"" the tiny blonde brashly asserted, immediately following the obligatory, ""Hi."" ""I know I can deepthroat it. I ain't got no gag reflex,"" the food stamp filly proclaimed, with a southern accent. +Stripping bare, she dunked herself in a vat of baby oil, and headed to the Sun-strafed backyard, to sizzle like Buffalo Wild Wings. +Moments later, I joined her. +Trouble reared its fucked-up face, when Tracy wandered back inside, heading for the bathroom. +It was at that point Gary made his affections known, apparently taking a strong liking to this one. +Akin to steak being offered a vegan, the woman denied him. In the eyes of our host, I'd suddenly donned a black hat. +When Tracy returned to the backyard, the pot boiled over. Watching the trailer tart suck my cock — from a mildewed window at the rear of the house — the old man blasted out the back door, in a fireball of fury. +Gathering the piece of yarn that doubled as her bikini, Tracy scrambled across the Sun-drenched backyard, in a frenzy to reach the last Ford Pinto on the road. +With my clothes trapped inside the house, I grabbed a tarp on the way, wrapped it around my waist, and made for my truck. +""You're a dead man, you bastard!"" the senior citizen screamed, in lukewarm pursuit. +It wasn't my fault Tracy had denied him. Apparently, though, if he wasn't gonna get any, nobody was. +Shocked by the abrupt ending to an extremely interesting day of backyard, nude sunbathing, the woman and I were unable to coordinate our retreat. As a result, I became lost in a rat maze of suburban dead ends, and couldn't find my way back to her loving mouth. +It was to be the first, and last, time I would see her. +Not to worry, though. Since I've accumulated more stories than a thousand Sears Towers, you've plenty of my articles to read. +In summation, this latest chapter — and all others subsequent it — might never have been written, had I not engaged in my regular workout routine. +Although Gary was less mobile than a car with no wheels, if I hadn't kept myself in some semblance of shape, I probably would've pulled a muscle, and the old man would've eventually pounced on me. +— authored by Hugh Mungus" +656,Mounted During Deer Season,nostranger2luv,How To,2016-10-04,2016-10-06,2022-01-04 08:36:27,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/mounted-during-deer-season-ch-01,1. Surprise group sex. 2. Surprise group sex.,"['3Some', 'Group Sex', 'How To', 'Oral']",3.88,"I live in the upper Midwest and as such have become an avid hunter. There are few better feelings as those you experience outdoors, in the woods, in the late fall. The trees have lost their leaves, the Winter cold air has moved in from the North and occasionally a fresh blanket of snow is on the ground. Today was no exception. I was out in the woods, in my favorite stand, watching and waiting. The others in my group all split up and were spread out within the 500 acre woods we were hunting. +The bluffs of northern Wisconsin along the Mississippi River are home to monster bucks. As I sat patiently waiting for my trophy buck to come into view, my cell phone vibrated in my pocket. +""Robert, come back to the house. There is a car waiting for you"". The text was from my friend and roommate who is also named Bob. Bob, always so formal, owns the land we are hunting on. I wasn't sure what to make of it, but everyone must have headed to lunch. I climbed out of my stand and began the walk back to my friend's house. +I arrived fifteen minutes later and sure enough, there was a Red SUV in the driveway running which I didn't recognize. After dropping off my gear, I opened the passenger door and there she was waiting for me, Rachel. Rachel is my roomate Bob's on again off again girlfriend. Last I knew they were on again, and so my curiosity was peaked. +""What is going on?"" I asked. +""What's going on is that Bob instructed me to pick you up and bring you to the rendezvous."" I didn't know what to make of it but it was Bob's instructions so I went along. +Rachel is a fiery redhead with straight shoulder length hair and a pleasant face. I have never seen her without clothes, but could only imagine what she looks like naked. The nice swell beneath her sweater surely would be ample breasts that have gotten heavy with age and the curves under the jeans made my mouth water. At that moment, that was exactly what I was wondering. +The 20 minute drive continued without another word from either of us. We pulled into the parking lot of a motel called The Rendezvous. It was one of those establishments from the 70's where there aren't hallways or indoor pools. Thoughts of a shower stabbing from the movie Psycho were my first thoughts as we pulled in and parked. I recognized some of the many cars in the lot but didn't think much about it. Without a word, we both got out and I followed Rachel to door #5. The large picture window had the curtains drawn and I began wondering how much trouble I was about to be in. +As we walked in, I was greeted by the other four hunters from my party. Comments like ""what took ya?"" , ""where have you been?"" ""did you get one?"" were coming at me from the guys. It was obvious they had planned this due to the coolers of beer and bottles of blackberry brandy on the table. Somehow the party had grown because there were women in the room that I didn't recognize and it was then that it all hit me. +No one had any clothes on and the guys were being treated to blowjobs by the women. +Phil and Joe were seated on the couch. Bob was sitting at the table with a girl on her knees between his legs. I was blown away. I could not have ever imagined this happening. If Rachel was undressing me, who was sucking Bob's cock? +Rachel, already out of her coat and boots handed me a brandy and had started removing my clothes.. The women would look over at me with their mouths full of cock with an inquisitive looks on their faces and smiles. Obviously they were not able to speak with their mouths full. +""Let me get you out of those clothes, we have a nice hot bath for you waiting in the next room,"" said Rachel as she was unbuttoning and unzipping my pants. +After removing all my clothes, standing there naked, she grabbed me by the cock and lead me into the bedroom suite. As we walked in, I took in the fact there was a fireplace in the room, a king size bed and a spa styled tub which could hold more than one. At this point, I was guided into the tub by Rachel who was peeling the last of her clothes off, exposing the body I had never seen. Pre-cum was leaking from my fully erect cock at this point and Rachel went to her knees in front of me. I was able to take in the view of her body at this point as she leaned in to taste me. Her breasts were everything I had hoped they would be, maybe 34C, but her nipples were amazing. They were pink, surrounded by slightly darker areolas. They had already started to harden as most of her body was in the hot water. She wasn't real thin, but she definitely had been taking care of herself. +As she drew me into her mouth, I couldn't help but moan as the pleasure of her lips and tongue began to overtake me. Letting me ""pop"" from her mouth, she eased me into the hot water and I was treated to her sponging my body. After washing me completely, she asked me to sit on the edge of the tub. I didn't think it would be a good idea to object at this point and so I complied. Fondling my balls with her right hand and grasping the base of my still hard and throbbing cock, she engulfed me. I could feel her tongue all around me as she edged closer to fully swallowing all of my 7 inches. I couldn't help it, I came. Rope after rope of cum coaxed out of me as her hands milked me. +""There, that should take the edge off so you can enjoy the rest of the day with all of us."" +It took me a moment to get past the fact that my friend's girlfriend had just deep throated me to orgasm with all my other buddies getting sucked off in the next room. +""Yeah, I didn't see that coming, Thanks Rachel, that was amazing. Bob is one lucky guy."" +I stood and we shared our first kiss. It wasn't the first time a woman had kissed me right after swallowing my cum and so the familiar taste coupled with her lips wasn't bad. +We turned down the bed together and she had me sit up against the headboard while she went into the other room and got drinks for both of us. +Part 2 coming shortly. + +" +657,My 7 Rules to Online Relationships,Azuldrgon,How To,2016-06-02,2016-06-02,2022-01-04 08:36:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/my-7-rules-to-online-relationships,How to have a relationship online and make it a good one.,"['Camming', 'Guide', 'Honesty', 'How To', 'Online', 'Relationship']",4.68,"I have been on Lit for at least ten years. I have had my share of relationships on Lit from simple friendships to more personal relationships. I am not a relationship expert nor do I claim to have all the answers at all. The rules I am about to outline are rules I try to follow. This ensures that the relationships are stable to an extent and helps to alleviate some issues I have seen and went through. +1\. Real Life takes priority over online: It doesn't matter how friendly you are to whomever online. If you do not take care of your real life business, your online activities may suffer. You need to do your real life activities. You need to go to work. You need to spend time with your family. You need to eat and sleep. These are all very important. If a real life issue arises, take care of it before you do anything online. Some online relationships are fickle compared to your marriage, your relationship with your children and such. If real life gets too much, keep the computer turned off until you get things handled. +2\. Be honest about what you want: If you want a sub and she wants a sub, there's going to be an issue. If you make contact with someone you click with, be sure to be honest with what you want. Not every woman wants to cyber you, fellas. Not every guy wants to be your platonic friends, ladies. If she wants you to play, it's your decision to do so. But be honest about what you are looking for. If you want vanilla sex and he tried to talk about binding your hands, be honest. If you need to be spanked, say so. Subtlety online is useless depending on the medium. If your partner leaves because you want different, it happens. +There's a second part to this as well. If you are planning on meeting up or camming and such, don't try to lie about what you look like and such. Using a picture from five years ago is simple misrepresentation, especially if you lost hair, gained weight or whatever. It's better to be honest up front than to be stuck in an expensive hotel because you didn't tell her you lost your hair. +3\. Show discretion: Let's be real. If you happen to land the hottest girl on Lit as your submissive, you'd want to brag about it. Honestly though, it may not be the best idea. Many on Lit want to remain discreet about their out of sight activities. There are numerous reasons for this, but the biggest take away is that you can't go on the boards talking about stuff you and the person discuss in private. This not only violates any trust the partner had in you, but it also marks you as a blabber mouth, causing you to lose other opportunities. Be discreet. This also means sharing things shared in confidence as well. +4\. Be open in communication: Don't be afraid to communicate. Whether by Skype or pm or YIM or KIK or whatever, communication is a helpful way to avoid assumptions and miscues. It also is a good way to diffuse arguments or possible issues before they become a major pain. +5\. Have Reasonable Expectations: As much as you want a partner at your beck and call at all times to help you cum on demand, it isn't a feasible solution. Between working, a child, real life issues, physical limitations and such, it's hard for someone to be like that unless you move in. Remember Rule 1. You need to have a reasonable expectation of what can happen and what to do. If you want more, you will be disappointed. +6\. Do not expect more than you are willing to give: If you love receiving pictures of your partners, then it is only fair that you provide equal displays back. If you love hearing them cum, you need to do the same. Do not try to make someone do something they are not comfortable doing. Some who are in the BDSM lifestyle do different surveys available online to identify what a partner is willing or not willing to do and what they may do if coerced. These are guidelines that can be useful. The thing is, don't expect a partner to drop whatever they are doing in real life just to help you jill off. Remember Rule 1 and Rule 5. +7\. Either side can terminate the relationship at any time: This is the biggest sticking point of all and one that is the most painful.

I start by licking your lips & kissing you softly. Then I kiss your neck & ear, trailing a line with my tongue down to your nipples. You love it when I kiss, lick & suck on your nipples, don't you? So I do just that, starting on the left then moving to the right. I nip it with my teeth & suck on it like i'm giving you a hickey & then lick it feather light. All this gets you really hard & the precum starts to ooze. I LOVE the taste of precum. If you tell me there is precum for me I will drop your pants then & there to lick it up. So I lick the precum off the tip of your dick & savor it. Then I start teasing you by licking your shaft up & down & all over, but avoid the head. I lick under the ridge of the head, but do not take the head in my mouth. Then I lick all the way down to the base of your shaft & take your balls in my mouth, one at a time & suck on them softly. I take both in my mouth & teabag you. I'm willing to bet I get more precum as a reward. Right? So, of course, I have to lick up the precum. +Next I engulf you in your entirety into my mouth, deep-throating you all at once. I stay just like that, your whole shaft inside my mouth, tip at the back of my throat for a minute or so, just letting you feel the wetness & warmth of my mouth. You moan, I'm sure, as it is sheer ecstasy to be buried to the hilt in my mouth. I slowly start to lick the head while it is still in my mouth, ringing around the ridge, flickering at the pee hole. Then I start to move towards the top & suck gently until I let almost all of you out of my mouth. You like to watch, don't you? So I put on a little show for you. I slowly move your thick cock in & out of my mouth in long strokes, sucking softly & in the spots you like it best. I do this until I feel you growing bigger in my mouth. Then the teasing starts again. I don't let you cum at first. I build up the climax for you, making you beg for release. +I start to lick the head again, probing your pee hole with my tongue in a sensual way that really turns you on, licking your shaft, cupping your balls in my free hand. I take all of you in my mouth again & concentrate on the top of your dick. I move slowly at first then quicken the speed, using my hand at the base of your shaft. It is wet with all the saliva that has dripped down your cock & from my constant licking & sucking, making you good & wet. I start to move my hand up & down in pace with my mouth, giving you a hand job & blow job at the same time, exciting you even more. +You start to ooze cum & I ask if you want me to milk you dry or to let you blow your wad. You see, I am holding the base of your dick & have the control over this. If I continue to hold it firmly you will just ooze cum, but if I let it lose you can have a mind shattering orgasm. Some days I prolong the orgasm by milking you dry, slowly letting little bits of cum squirt over a few minutes, having your orgasm last up to five minutes & other days I make you cum so hard you sees stars. +This day I want to drink your cum so I let lose & you shoot your wad all at once. It is a jism shake for me!!! I love to tease you after you cum, too, licking & sucking on your sensitive head, making you jump in the bed & practically hit the ceiling until you beg me to stop.

Even I am still learning on different ways guys like it to be done. Everyone is different in the way they want pleasure. +The first time I gave a blowjob I was told that I needed more practice so I was a little embarrassed. I did not know what I was doing even though I had watched some porn it was still not what I needed to learn how to do properly. I kept trying to do what I had seen on the porno movies but some that had a little more experience in getting them just told me the same thing over and over again. But some did enjoy though. +Until one night this guy who was about 12 years younger than me, took me out into a field and wanted to have his way with me. He wanted me to get him hard with my mouth and he told me a few things I was doing wrong. Some guys don't want teeth on their cock but some do. My late husband was one that did. In fact my late husband told me for years when I finally perfected my own little blowjob technique that I could give porno stars lessons in how to give them. +I had a guy try to fuck my mouth one time for the first time and I thought I was going to choke to death. But it takes time and experience to learn how to do that. Plus you have to teach yourself how to relax your gag reflex even when I deep throat. I noticed some guys would get turned off cause I could not do it right but some were a little more understanding and just let me go at my own pace and actually taught me things like the guy 12 years younger than me. +The guy would tell me different ways he wanted me to suck on him and I tried to perfect each one. I even came up with some of my own later which to this day a guy who has gotten a blowjob from me will always come back for more and also when I describe my technique to a guy he will be so into it when reading that I got him hooked. +The first time I swallowed cum I did not like it but the pre-cum was delicious. It was very sweet. Also it also depends on what a guy has eaten which will affect the taste of his cum like asparagus. Fruit like pineapple eaten will make a mans cum sweeter. So guys eat a lot of pineapple if you like that kind of fruit and women or men will want more of your sweet nectar. Cum and pre-cum is also salty. +So when all these guys wanted me to different things to them made me think. I was having a brain storm and thought, WOW why not take all they have taught me and put it all together plus a few of my own I through In there and come up with my own technique. +You do not have to do it in the same order I will be telling you. You do it in a way that you enjoy. So here is the way I started and my ways vary cause it is not always in order as I am going to tell you. +I will lick all around the head getting the pre-cum off the head while licking around the pee slit and even putting the tip of my tongue in the pee slit. That is one of erroneous zones on his cock head. Also I will lick under the head where the pee slit ends and that will make him moan which is another erroneous zone on his cock head. +I will then insert his cock head into my mouth and with a little suction I suck on the head and suck him in and out but not taking any out of my mouth at all. You can learn this by taking your finger and inserting it in your mouth and start sucking. But don't move your head or your finger but make the sucking do it for you on the moving. I was told the first time I ever did this to my late husband that it felt like my pussy was squeezing his cock but when he looked up it was still in my mouth. So I tell the men I will make my mouth feel like my pussy is squeezing their cock. +I will then go real fast and deep throat as far down as I can go without gagging. I try to swallow first to make my gag reflex relax and have my mind go blank so I can go down as far as I can. Sometimes I can hold down for a minute or 2. And sometimes I can stay down for awhile and suck on the base of hos shaft while rubbing my tongue up and down over his shaft. I use my tongue like that periodically throughout the blowjob. Some will cum right then before I have finished my blowjob technique on them. +I will then come back up to the head of the cock and with more suction than before I will suck and also keep popping off the head with a popping sound. Then I will lick his shaft all the way to his balls. I will then start licking his balls and take as much of his balls in my mouth and I will suck on them as they roll around in my mouth. +I will then lick his balls again and then under his balls and start licking lower to his perineum which is part of his prostrate sticking out. Some men like it when you go lower in a blowjob. So I will lick lower and lower until I get to his asshole and then start licking his rosebud. They will start moaning and want more of this. So I insert my tongue and start rimming his asshole till he is squirming so much that he is really leaking pre-cum out which he is on the edge of cumming. So I go back up to sucking on the head of his cock again. +I do all this until he cums in my mouth and I swallow or he decides he wants more than just a complete blowjob. Remember the guy you want to pleasure is wanting you to pleasure him any way he wants you to. I have also used my teeth lightly on some that love that and also have used my finger in his ass as I am sucking on his cock which will make him have a very intense orgasm. +Hope this description helps everyone of you learn my technique of giving a blowjob. Practice, practice and more practice will help and if you have feelings for each and every guy you give a blowjob to then it is also pleasurable for yourself. I know it has been for me on several occasions and have actually got so into it that I have reached my climax myself without even touching my pussy." +661,My Guide to Sex in a Relationship,LadyAnalLover,How To,2011-06-17,2011-06-17,2022-01-04 08:36:33,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/my-guide-to-sex-in-a-relationship,Some tips and tricks I picked up along the way.,"['Anal', 'Ass Licking', 'Blowjobs', 'Butt Plug', 'Deep Throat', 'Double Penetration', 'Enemas', 'Massage', 'Porno', 'Strap On']",4.6,"_***This is more of a guide than a sex story. There is some exciting things but it is not focused on fantasy at all. This is about my life and how I work at making things work for me. I am not a doctor or a counselor; nothing I write is meant to treat or diagnosis anything. I am just a girl with a very little bit of life experience. This is ""My Guide to Sex in a Relationship,"" it works for me and I hope it works for you as well._ +Over my five years in university I have learned a lot of things. A lot of things in school of course but even more out of school. I have grown from a timid, skinny, insecure young girl into a sexually confident young woman. I have now found my one true love in a man whom I least expected but am most excited. I fall in love with him over and over each day and am looking forward to our long, happy life together. I had a lot of help along the way to finding him and I learned my lessons well so I am going to share some of those lesson's with you all in hopes that anyone who is willing may learn a little. (And don't worry this doesn't mean my stories are over, I still have some old ones and will be making many new one's :-) ) +* +These are my personal keys to staying together, staying happy and staying sexually satisfied with one another. +The first thing I would say to anyone male or female is to really get into what you are doing, I mean put yourself mentally into it like it is the one thing you want most. That cum, that orgasm, that sweet sweat dripping off your bodies as you glide, slide and pound into one another. The reason guys like porn so much in my opinion is because the girls are so receptive. They aren't repressed and hiding under the covers with the lights off. They don't lay there quietly in one position expecting the man to get all the work done himself. They love what they are doing or at least act like they do and I have to say that even if you are not physically as into sex as you want to be, acting the part goes a long way into forcing your body to get with the program! +Men are creatures of confidence; if you build him up he will be better for you every time you go to bed. If you break him down you will end up resenting each other and your sex life will fail along with your relationship. Make him feel like he is the king of your world sexually, like he is amazing at the things he does. Let him know about the things you love him to do to you. ""Oh my god baby, when you flipped me over and grabbed my hips and rammed into me, that felt amazing."" Or ""I love the way you eat my pussy, it feels so good when you lightly flick across my clit like that."" Not only are you instructing him to get you off but you make him feel as if it was all his doing. One thing I will add to this is that the more you think about how great he is the more he will actually become great both to you and in fact so you are really doing yourself a favor as much as him. +Be vocal, say you like it, say you want more of it and let each other know exactly what it is you do want. I know that there is a great romance for women to want a man to sweep her off her feet and know exactly what buttons to push at exactly what time but the reality is you have to help him find the right buttons before he can call your number. Teach each other how to make love, how to fuck, how to screw and you will learn so much more about one another. +Give your body to the process. This is something I have learned recently that has taken me to new heights I thought I would never climb. Think about it this way, the first time you go for a run you can't go 5K. But as you run more and more and build up your abilities you can run 5K or even more. Sex is the same way. The first time probably sucked or hurt or both, but it sure gets better right? The same should be said about our advanced sex lives, it should get better as we work at it. +Practice makes perfect and practicing by yourself can be the best teacher oftentimes. I'll give a few sexy examples to make this more than just a how to book. I remember the first time I sucked dick. I was no good at it. I couldn't take it very deep, I couldn't suck very hard, I felt clumsy and embarrassed by the fact that I didn't know what I was doing. A few years later I got the bright idea of practicing on one of my dildos. I found one that seemed about the size of my failed attempt and started trying things out. +I parted my lips and slid the toy into my mouth. I rubbed it around to get used to feel of a hard cock touching all over the inside of my mouth. I pushed it to that gag point and pulled back a little, then I pushed it more. My pussy began to involuntarily get wet so I started to rub myself to take my mind off of my gagging. As I slid a finger inside myself I slid the cock deeper into my mouth. Again the gagging so I backed out. I kept doing this in small motions until I felt the toy hit the back of my throat! I started moving it in and out as I pulled my fingers out of my pussy and rubbed my wetness all over my clit. I leaned my head back and pushed the cock down into my throat. Then I pulled it out and then back down again. I was taking it all the way as far as it could go so I grabbed a larger toy and quickly started the process over again. Before I knew it I was sliding a good sized toy dick (about my love's size) all the way down my throat as far as it could go and I was literally fucking my mouth with it! It didn't do anything for me physically but the first time I let a guy fuck my mouth like that it did a great deal for him and I was extremely proud of my abilities in the bed room and a confident lover is a good lover. Now I can lay back on my bed and let him slide deep into my throat and back out at feverish speeds without any problem and he loves it! +I had the same experience with my asshole years ago as well. Anal sex was not the best thing in the world. It honestly hurt me some so I had a fear of it. But one day while in the shower I used a finger up my bum. I let it sit inside me while I felt my ass rim flex and squeeze at the intrusion. Quickly though it relaxed and allowed the penetration. I used another finger with the same result, a little shock and squeeze and then entry granted. Eventually I could easily fit three fingers wide into my ass with no pain at all or four fingers grouped together without the least bit of trouble. +I also had many toys at my disposal and I learned to take them all inside of me. I would lie on my side while I slowly inserted them inside my most tight of holes. Then I would flex my ass on the toy as hard as I could and hold the flex for a while to fully grasp how tight I could get myself (and I can get really fucking tight!). After flexing I would release my muscles and let my rosebud open up to the foreign object inside of her. I would start using the toy in and out of myself speeding up and eventually using enough force that I would squirt my cum all over the place. One thing I love to do is get fucked in doggy-style position and while he is fucking my pussy I get a longer silicone dildo (so I can reach) and fuck my own ass with it as he watches me and fucks me! It makes me and him cum every time. +I have spent so much time training my ass that I can now go out in public with a butt plug in and do all of my daily duties and enjoy every step I take! (I do wear underwear just in case for some reason I was to lose control and it popped out in public, that would be embarrassing to say the least.) +Keep yourself clean! I cannot over state the importance of this. Honestly if you meet the best looking person in your life and they smell like b.o. you will back off. If you proceed with them and their breath is rancid you will shy away more and if they have a crotch that smells like week old meat you will most likely puke on them. Keeping yourself clean is both better for you and your lover or potential lovers. Trimming, shaving, waxing, etc. as well as the normal soap, shampoo and toothpaste are as much a sex toy as a dildo and a strap-on. Without the one you are much less likely to get the other. +Enemas are a vital part of my sex life now. I absolutely love anal sex, I can cum from it as easily as I can flick my clit or rub my g-spot but I have had to learn the skill over the years. One thing that helps tremendously for women is to know that there is no ""accident"" waiting to happen. Getting a good enema is like washing your pussy well to make sure it is fresh and clean. The cleaner you are the dirtier you are likely to get in bed! Make sure to never use the saline solution that comes from the drug store kits because it will dry you out and also make sure you never use your tap water unless it's filtered. Get distilled water and warm it up in the microwave (but not to hot, you don't want to burn your insides). They sell enema bags at most all drug or grocery stores but I actually prefer to get the douche bags and use them because they hold more liquid (2-4 quarts is my preference). Make sure you use warm water (helps keep cramping at minimum) and make sure to hold the liquid in as long as you can while lying on your back or in the doggy style position. Some people like to add a little bit of soap and others like to add some olive oil or mineral oil to the bag. Coffee, milk, and even wine are common practices for enemas and all have some medical and scientific backing to benefitting health. I prefer warm water only followed by a 4oz shot of water based lube just before penetration. Just get an enema syringe (I believe in America they are called enema bulbs) the ones that look like a baby nose sucker. (I guess you could actually use a nose sucker to get the lube in, that should work just fine). Doing this both cleans me out and lubes me up inside as much as possible and let's face it, the better lubed we are the better the sex feels. +Take time to learn you own body. So many times we are in such a rush to get to the next place in life, school, work, the gym, a meeting or whatever. When it comes to masturbating we normally just skip to the end, get a vibrator on our clit and cum fast so we can get going to that next ""thing."" (Normally for me it's sleep.) But think of this, how can you instruct or guide a lover to the things you like most or want most at that time if you don't know your own body? +I would never have known that I love to be double penetrated if I hadn't taken the time to use two toys in myself at once. I love my magic wand but I would probably still just turn it on and put it on my clit if I didn't take time to experiment with it. I like it on my asshole while I fuck myself with my long silicone dildo or vibrator (although sometimes both vibrations are to much.) I also like putting the wand on my clit while I ride my suction cup dildo or just lay on my back and fuck my pussy with a toy while I rub my clit with the wand. Or my pump up dildo, I love the full, full feeling I get from it and I also like to get it real big and flec my pussy muscles on it as hard as I can both sucking it into me and pushing it out as well. It trains the muscles and feels wonderful at the same time! +I would have never learned the anal skills I have today if I didn't teach myself the proper way to do it for me. How to enema and lube myself. How to relax for entry, how to take larger object's and flex on them. Vibrators, beads, plugs are all things I use to keep myself ready and able to cum at ease from my ass. Constant use only makes me want it that much more. I can't even shower without sliding a finger or two inside myself! +And my biggest perhaps, I would have never learned to squirt had I not used that g-spot vibrator until I got that feeling. Once I felt like I had to go, (had to go pee is a pretty accurate description although I can now make a very clear distinction in the two feelings) I took the toy out of myself and allowed my muscle's to release rather than the normal holding back I was so used to. I soaked my bed and myself and rocked my own world literally screaming out in ecstasy in the privacy of my own apartment. Now I can cum multiple times before my man is even close, I can get myself so wet that I can take more of a hardcore pounding and I owe it all to taking the time to find out about my own body. +For guys you need to realize (and your women do to) that just because your dick likes to be touched, stroked, grabbed, licked, sucked and fucked DOES NOT mean that is the only thing your body has to offer sexually. You have numerous erotic zones on your body just like women do but for some reason culture has programmed men to think dick and dick only when it comes to male satisfaction. Let your women try new things on your body. +The biggest male ""Oh hell no"" is of course the ass. Most men jump through the roof if you even mention touching their ass, except for the ones who have been man enough to allow their women to do so. Here is the thing boys, women love asses. We obsess over our own asses, we look at other women's asses, we work out to get a ""booty"" or to work our booty's off. We love nice asses and especially a nice man's ass! So let her grab it, let her rub it, let her take you into the shower and wash it. Let her kiss it, lick it, stoke your lubed up cock while she eats you and maybe even let her go into you. That's right let her lube her finger, lick your asshole and slide inside of you. Maybe use a vibrator in you? I have a strap-less strap on that inserts in my pussy and goes inside of you and vibrates both of us! The bigger the part that inserts in the women the better to hold onto you're your pc muscles with and I have to say there is something amazingly powerful about using a strap-on as a women. It is simply an awesome point of view and if you have a man who is strong enough in his sexuality to let you go there by all means go for it, you will have fun being in his shoes for a while! +Men have a wonderful gift called the prostate and I promise you I have made my man cum from nothing but massaging him inside of his ass. So keep yourself clean boys and keep yourself open to new things because you just might fall in love with your own body as much as you love ours! +Be spontaneous. Planning things is great, we often times must plan well if we want to succeed. But over-planning only leads to let downs and false hopes. I prefer to prepare for anything and then let whatever happens happen. I have an entire draw full of toys that I can use for whatever situation. I have plugs, pumps, lubes, butterfly's, beads, strap-on's (for her or for him ;)) wands, blindfold's and gag's (new to the collection) candles, music, cuff's and on and on. You name it I probably got something you want. The point is I never know exactly what direction my man will take me or what path I want to travel from time to time. Maybe we fuck in the day at the school and I don't need any of those things. Maybe we get into it on the couch while watching a movie and don't need any toys at all. But maybe we have a couple glasses of wine and want to get lost in a night of fullness and cum. So be prepared but also be up for anything you like because you never know what is right around the corner for you and that can be as exciting as any sex toy. +Have more sex. A lot of people say they have a lot of sex but really don't. Still more people fit sex in when they have ""time for it"" (weekends or date nights) and don't really give it the time it deserves. +Whatever your sex level is right now I personally challenge you to double it for one month. If you are having sex once a day then go for twice daily and make sure you make it count, don't just go through the motions. Remember to get into it and really let your body go. Not only will your libido increase but you will feel healthier and more excited about life in general (libido is a lot like waking up early or doing cardio, the more you do it the more you want to do it, the more you NEED to do it). Just remember that not only are you going for more sex but you are also making sure it is more ""good"" sex. If at the end of the month you hated all the great sex you were having then I have no idea what to say to you other than I feel sorry for your partner. +Variety is the spice of life. Once you have done the one month of double the good sex challenge I further challenge you to have another month of equal amounts of sex only never do it the same way two times in a row. Different finishing positions, different locations, different holes, let him cum on you instead of in you, (actually tell him to cum on whatever part of your body you want him on, this is extremely exciting for men to hear and see). Make sure that each sex session you have is both fulfilling for you and your partner but also different every time. Add toys but use a different one (you may need to shop a little for each other ), music, lighting, oils, porno movies, computer clips, stories or whatever else your naughty mind can think of, just make sure you keep things changing and you will thank me for it later. (Or at least your body will!!!) +Adding to the variety rule I further challenge you to make sure you are staying connected at a personal level as well as a sexual one. Many couples drift apart after the ""honeymoon phase"" simply because things stop being new, they stop being ""fun"" and therefore you stop having fun with one another. A major component of sex aside from the physical connection is the mental, spiritual and emotional connection. I am not talking one night stand or sex fling ""fun"" I am talking life changing, ""I want to keep doing this forever with just you and me and damn everyone else that looks at us or talks about us"" style connection. (Please note that I understand there are a number of people who are not monogamous but live very happy, fulfilling lives together. I, however am not one of those and will never be as I am way to possessive to even dream of such a life style with my life partner but I do not judge or condemn anyone else who is happy with that choice. ) +Put as much effort into your life outside of sex together as you put into your sex life together. Often times the men need to work on this more and the women need to work on the sex more but if that doesn't fit you than that's awesome but there is always room for change. Also remember that each of you are responsible for both sex and connection. Just because girls like to talk more and go out more doesn't mean that they get a free pass. Your challenge is to find out the things he really wants to go do and not just the things you want to do and vice versa. +Try setting up dates that are unannounced. Try different restaurants you have never been to or take a longer drive to see a movie at a ""new"" Cineplex. Go for walks, get partners massages (girls you can book this as well as a guy can). Buy each other inexpensive things just because it makes you think of each other. Stop and kiss each other just because you want to. Hold hands, hug in public, and tell each other I love you out of the blue and mean it! Do not let yourself fall into the ""eat, work, tv, sleep"" lifestyle that so many couples get comfortable in because sooner or later one of you will start looking for excitement elsewhere. You are each other's best protection from relationship problems. +One of my favorite night's so far with my man has been the night he told me he was coming over to watch a movie. I got all clean shaved, hair washed, used a enema, made sure my place was perfect and when he showed up he bragged my coat and said ""let's go."" I protested that I wasn't dressed well and he told me not to worry that I looked great the way I was. He took me to an informal but amazing restaurant and got a sample of various foods I don't eat often. He bought wine that we shared. We talked about life, about the future and then out of nowhere he blatantly asked me about my fantasies in a public restaurant! +We kept our conversation low which meant we had to lean close to one another to speak and we had the best, dirtiest, most honest talk about our sexual fantasies I have ever had all at a restaurant. By the time I got into his car I was ready to suck him dry. By the time we got to my place I was soaking wet and ready to go. We fucked all night and tried out several of our fantasies together. We ended by taking a shower together and then falling asleep with me curled up lying on his chest with one leg draped over him and my hand right by his cock. +I could probably go on for pages and pages but these are the major things I try to make sure I do on a regular basis in my life. I hope that some of these thoughts of mine serve to make your life better and if you are lucky enough to find that special person then I hope you really make it work because in my mind there is nothing better for the world than a strong, happy couple." +662,My Lovely Virgin Venus Lucy,aamirhydkhan,How To,2020-08-31,2021-01-27,2022-01-04 08:36:35,14,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/my-lovely-virgin-venus-lucy-pt-01,1.

At the end of the month of March when I was walking in one of the streets of New Delhi, near our house, I saw two beautiful ladies coming in my direction. One of them was a tall woman about twenty-six years of age, who under other facts or conditions would have certainly received more than an approving quick look. But it was her companion that attracted my strong gaze with feelings of admiration, pleasure, desire, and wonder. +She was a young girl of Eighteen years with such amazing beauty of face and figure as I had never seen or dreamed of. Masses of bright, wavy, brown hair fell to her waist. Deep violet eyes looked out from under long curling lashes and seemed to laugh together with her full red lips. These and a thousand other charms I was to know later on, but what struck me most at this view, was the amazing and very unusual size and beauty of the girl's bosom, shown to all possible advantage by her dress, in the true art of British style, She walked slowly and quietly in between she too glanced on me repeatedly, outlining her full and perfect form with a loving smile. +She was tall and flexible. young goddess, her short skirt showing a pair of her beautifully formed long legs, She was wearing plainly designed skin- colored silk stockings inviting attention. My eyes were fixed on that young and beautiful girl , I was definitely under enchantment caused by her sheer beauty. +Just when I reached near the pair, to my utter surprise, the older lady suddenly called my name. 'Aamir, Aamir, Do you remember me?' For a moment I was at a total loss, but the voice gave me the clue. +'Yes, Miss I do', I answered, 'You are Miss Jane, who used to teach my sisters. What a pleasant surprise! What brings you to Delhi from Hyderabad?' I said. My eyes were glued on that young girl. She also looked at me and found me looking at her, she blushed. +Ms. Jane noticed both of us exchanging glances. +''Quite right. But I have given up teaching, for which there is no need for me now. I am living here in a flat with my dear little friend. Let me introduce you, Meet Ms. Lucy -Aamir.' her violet eyes laughed up at me; and the red lips parted presenting a merry smile. Dimples appeared at the center of her cheeks. +I was done for! Yes; at only eighteen of age, with no experiences in the phase of love, I went down before this lovely girl with her childish face smiling at me above the growing womanhood of her rounded breasts, and confessed myself defeated! I have lost my heart to her. +I requested Miss Jane to visit my house along with her friend, which was just around the corner for a cup of tea, but she politely refused, as she had some prior engagement. A moment or two later, I had with me Ms. Jane's mobile number and address of her flat in my pocket, under promise to visit them on tea on the next day, since on that day they have planned to visit the Super- Market for shopping in that evening. +Unable to control my urge to see Lucy again, I waited there for them to return, hiding in a corner bush till long, but probably they took some different route or mode for their return. +In the evening I too visited the Super-Market and met Ms. Lucy and Ms. Jane again there. I greeted both Ms. Jane and Lucy. And Lucy too smiled at me. Lucy wanted to buy some Indian dress and I helped her in selecting a dress. I secretly bought a Red Choli & Lehnga (Indian Top & Skirt) for her and Ms. Jane. +Ms. Lucy was cheerful while we shopped and I felt that Ms. Lucy liked my company when-ever Ms. Jane left us alone. +I gave the gift to Ms. Jane and requested her to pass the gift I bought for ms Lucy to her. Ms. Jane accepted her gift, smiled, and encouraged me to gift it to her, myself, which I did and Ms. Lucy gleefully accepted my gift after getting a nod from Ms. Jane. +She wanted to try the dress but since they were getting late, Ms. Jane advised Lucy to try it at home as the shop keeper has promised to change the dress if the need so arises. But, I was sure that it shall fit her perfectly, as I have taken a fair measure of her figure and bosom while helping her to select a dress and while she was trying some dresses. Further, the dress gifted by me had only strings to tie. +I got so infatuated for Lucy that, in the evening, I decided to have a round of the address given to me by Ms. Jane to again catch a glimpse of lovely Lucy. Her flat was nearby my house and located on the First floor of the building. There was an under-construction building, right opposite to the Flat from where I could see all the windows of her flat. I climbed stairs to the second floor of that building under construction. It was getting Dark. +The lights of her flat were on and curtains were not drawn. I took the cover of natural darkness and firstly, I saw Lucy changing and trying the dress given by me. Seeing Lucy stripping, semi-nude, and then wearing that red dress I had a huge erection. My Pyjama was standing out as though an old-fashioned tent pole was underneath. +Lucy was on the other hand admiring her beauty in that Red Dress. She looked like an Angel, When she was looking at her in the mirror at that very moment. +After that I glanced at the other window of the other room, there Ms. Jane facing the window was riding on the top of a man, clasping him in a tight embrace, his hands were on Ms. Jane's beautiful large white globes and was playing with her well-formed tits and from the thumping and movements of their bodies, I saw that they were enjoying themselves. +My erection was getting harder on seeing the two on the bed in that manner. I was so amazed and engrossed in watching their wonderful lovemaking that I almost forgot, why I was there and stood watching them till she raised herself off and laid on the bed on the side. +The man got up, standing naked with his back to me and started dressing, while Ms. Jane was still lying there on her back with her eyes closed facing the window, completely naked, her thighs wide apart, revealing to my ardent gaze a round white belly, the bottom part of which was covered with black curly hairs, which were smeared in whitish-looking creamy foam. +Ms. Jane opened her eyes, suddenly she noticed something, got up, kissed that man, and quickly grabbed the Lehnga Choli given by me to her as Gift. In the meantime, the Man also dressed up by that time and left the room. Ms. Jane drew the curtains of her room and switched off the light of her room. +I then glanced at the window where Lucy was trying to tie the knots of the top gifted by me looking at the mirror. +Ms. Jane entered the room of Ms. Lucy and came near the window and signaled to me to come by her fingers as she saw me ogling at the window. She took her Mobile phone and called me. My Mobile phone started to buzz and I picked the phone. Ms Jane told me to come to her flat immediately. +I got frightened by what is going to happen next, is she going to complain or report my conduct to my parents or call Police. My sisters always told me that she was a very strict Teacher. I was freezing at these thoughts so I begged her pardon on phone in a trembling voice. But she did not relent. +Ms. Jane commanded- Aamir, you cannot be pardoned for your offense on Mobile phone, come here immediately, to face the consequences of your conduct. She further said you had the courage to secretly view a young girl changing her clothes but no courage to face her. I again requested her to pardon me. She said If I wish to seek pardon then I have to come and meet her immediately. +Left with no other option, frightened and trembling, I reached her flat on the First floor, the door was open and Ms. Jane was standing there waiting for me with her mobile in her hand. +I received a message on my Mobile phone from Ms. Jane. +Continued. + +" +663,My Open Relationship,MoniqueJ,How To,2018-04-19,2018-04-21,2022-01-04 08:36:46,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/my-open-relationship,1. How my open relationship happened & works. 2. Reincarnating my image & starting to fine tune my psyche.,"['Guide', 'How To']",4.28,"The Meeting. +Of course, a relationship like the one I now share with my lover doesn't just happen. It takes mistakes, experimentation, frank discussion, mutual understanding, exploration, acceptance, absolute honesty, trust, faith and whole gamut of other things, emotions and desires and the honest confrontation and recognition of those emotions and desires. +Ours started off like any other intimate relationship between a man and a woman with the promise of implied fidelity, if not actually verbally promised. Of course, promises are easy to make, but not so easy to fulfil. The road of good intentions is filled with pitfalls which are not always that easy to avoid. +I have to admit that ours didn't start in any normal way. I had never experienced anything like it in my life. I was totally overwhelmed, flabbergasted, shocked, surprised, thrilled, excited, scared and heaven knows what else. From the very first moment we laid eyes on each other we never conformed to any prescribed norms. +I had been, for six month or so, devoted myself to celibacy. I was tired of men taking the pleasure with me and not really caring about mine. That was much the story of my life. Even if I did manage to experience an orgasm before the man had finished, mostly prematurely, I always felt that there was something missing. The purely physical gratification, when I did manage to enjoy an orgasm, wasn't enough for me anymore, so I decided that I might as well give it a miss. It was no better than masturbation and mostly less fulfilling. +I will touch more on this subject in a later chapter when I give a brief résumé of my history. The reader must bear with me if I tend to roam and ramble a bit. I am trying to convey the ambience and the nuance of my situation so that you can grasp my emotions. +So, there I was living like a virtual recluse, emotionally anyway. Oh, to be sure, men still came calling in the hopes that they'd get lucky, but I just wasn't interested. One of them arrived on a Saturday afternoon, insisting that I accompany him, saying there was this guy who I just had to meet. He'd been trying to get into my brooks for quite a while without any success and I suspected that this was just another ploy to achieve his goal. Anyway, he was extremely persistent so I eventually agreed. I went along, more out of politeness with the intention of showing my face, maybe having a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and going home again. +Well, I never went home again! Other than to collect my things that is. +We arrived at this house and our host was nowhere to be seen. They were going to have a barbeque and my escort said he was probably inside, getting stuff ready and that I should go inside and introduce myself. Talk about chivalry! Anyway, I did. I walked inside, stopping in the open door to be confronted by a tall, athletic figure with his back to me, busy at the kitchen counter. I called out apprehensively ""Hello. I'm Monique."" +He turned around at the sound of my voice, squinted to see who was speaking because the sun was shining from behind me, silhouetting me in the open doorway and then he exclaimed ""Holy shit, my baby! Where have you been all my life?"" and in three long strides he had me in his arms, kissing me passionately. +Now you will understand why I said ""I was totally overwhelmed, flabbergasted, shocked, surprised, thrilled, excited, scared and heaven knows what else."" He hadn't even told me his name yet and I was being seduced, with intense passion! Raped, maybe? I don't really know what to call it, but I do know it was beyond me to resist. I succumbed joyously. I was wearing skinny Jeans and a tight tank-top. What happened to them I can't remember, but within seconds I was naked. I wasn't wearing a bra [I don't need to] or panty [never did with Jeans]. He slipped my heels onto my feet again [which I found a bit strange], picked me up and being carried me through to his bedroom, cradled in his arms and kissing passionately all the way. +Please understand, all this happened within minutes. I was completely overwhelmed and totally bewildered, unable to think clearly, but I had no desire to resist. He laid me down on the bed and came and lay down next to me, half across me, and we resumed our passionate foreplay, together tugging off his clothes. Oh my word! I was almost In a state of shock when I first beheld his cock. It's almost the size of my forearm. +Okay, I'm not a big girl, but everything is relevant, not so? The thought of something that size invading my petite body and pert, tight pussy daunted me. I am rather small and tight ""down there"". Well, that only lasted for a moment, until his face buried itself between my thighs and his mouth and tongue started weaving their magic in my now molten core. I entwined my fingers in his hair, pulling his face hard into my groin, wanting him to devour all of me. +When he swivelled around, his cock protruding in front of my face, offering it to me to suck. I latched onto it with alacrity. I sucked and kissed it unbelievably enthusiastically and lovingly. I think that was, was born of desperation, thinking the longer I could please him in that fashion the longer I would delay the moment when I would inevitably have to take it in me. Quite foolish of me, of course. We were both far past the point of no return by then. Actually, long before then. +I couldn't believe it when I realised I was on the verge of cumming already. He'd brought me there just with foreplay. I had never, ever experienced that before! I was still going to find out that this was going to prove to be a night of a whole lot first for me. +He must have realised I was on the brink of an orgasm because he sat up and turned around, supporting his weight on one hand and towering over me with his cock in the other he nudged the head in between my pouting labia. I swear it felt as if my labia were pouting, reaching out for it, wanting it inside me. I also, involuntarily, reached for it, taking hold of the shaft with both hands and helping to guide it into me as he wiggle the big, pulsating head and, gently, pushed it into me. It was almost with a sense of relief that I felt it pop into me. Sort off, well, so far so good. I've survived so far! Not that I can, of course, remember anything, other than that I wanted it, all of it, come hell or high water. +Now that he was in me we let go of it and towering above me, supporting himself on both hands with his arms outstretched he, slowly, started to push into, looking into my eyes, he whispered something like you're magnificent or fantastic or something. My legs shot straight up into the air, opening wide inviting him into me. I remember being vaguely surprised that I was still wearing my heels. +As he slid slowly deeper into me, suddenly, all hell broke loose and I exploded into an intense orgasm, as our mouths found each other's again and he took my orgasm as a sign for him to fuck me, hard. I was squirming, bucking, writhing, squealing, sobbing, groaning and gasping all at the same time form the intensity of what I was experiencing. It was unbelievable and it was only the beginning! +Okay, now that you've had your juicy bit of pornographic entertainment, I'll get on with the real story again. +Well, we fucked all night. And, I mean, all night. It must have been somewhere between three and four the afternoon when we started and we eventually fell asleep in each other's arms, due to sheer exhaustion, when dawn was starting to creep through the curtains. +I had never before imagined I could experience such intense orgasms or believed that I could enjoy so many, so continuously. Hitherto, multiple orgasms had largely been a thing of myth and now I had just experienced them all night long! +We did come up to take a breath every now and then and have some refreshment, alcoholic, naturally. Champagne for me to celebrate our union and whatever took his fancy, at the moment, for him. I believe other people were expected for the barbeque. Well, if they did, we never saw them and they were left to the guy who'd brought me there to entertain. When we came up for air, the first time, at around ten, everybody had already left and all was quiet outside. Heaven knows what they must have thought of the noises emanating from the bedroom because I was rather loud. +Anyway, he was the most considerate and unselfish lover I had ever encountered, totally devoted to my pleasure and unconcerned about his. Naturally, he also came a few times, but not anywhere near in as much as me. The first inclination I had that he was going to be different to anyone I'd ever known before was when we took our first break and he asked me to always wear high heels. +That's about all I can tell you about that night. I must have squirted, maybe more than once, which was also something I had never experienced before, because areas of the bed were soaked. At first I thought one of us had wet the bed until he explained to me what had happened. That embarrassed me. I thought it was something to be ashamed of. +Later the day I awoke alone in the bed, a little confused, not immediately remembering where I was. I hadn't awoken in a strange bed for quite some time. I soon got my bearings and, taking the liberty of scratching in his wardrobe, found a T-shirt, slipped it on and went off in search of my fantastic new lover. I was besotted. And, can you blame me? I had just been fucked like never before! My pussy looked like someone with fat-lip it was so red and puffy, bulging hugely between my thighs. +I found him sitting naked, outside on the patio with a beer in hand. I took some satisfaction from the sight of his long cock, dangling down between his thighs. It didn't look much better than my pussy, also all red and raw. I went and sat on his lap with an arm thrown around his shoulder and cooed ""Morning lover."" And pecked him on the cheek. I was at home.

This person is not someone looking for a permanent or long term relationship. A Fuck Buddy is someone who can scratch that proverbial itch for some hot and wild fucking when you're either a single woman, such is my case. My favored Fuck Buddy lives two states away. With both of us living our lives, we can't be together as much as I would like. But that does go with the territory when someone I care about lives what seems like a million miles away. +For the most part, I did exactly what he wanted and told him all about the details of fucking other man/men. These other men were used to scratch my itches when my boyfriend couldn't. Sex with my fuck buddies was just a physical release when my boyfriend/Dom couldn't provide me with the emotional one. +The Fuck Buddy can be a friend who know where he/she stands and asks for nothing more. In my experience, this is the best fuck buddy of all. There is a verbal and sometimes non-verbal agreement there are no strings attached. There is a mutual respect between the two parties. +It goes no further than just a hard banging from behind and bent over the sofa so hard into the cushions I thought my neck was going to break in half. Yet, despite all the pain slamming hard into my neck, I couldn't stop myself from cumming. Cumming hard made me forget the pain in my neck and anything else going on around me that day. Fuck Buddy Number One did just that to me. He gave me three of the best BIG O's I had in a long time when my boyfriend/Dom couldn't. +Once he reached his powerful orgasm and dumped his sweet and tangy cum into my already drenched pussy, I fell to the floor. Spent and dizzy I had to stop the room from spinning somehow before I could stand on my own two feet. From what I can remember, I wasn't able to stand on my own and Fuck Buddy Number One had to help me up and deposited me onto my couch in a sitting upright position. +Thankfully, I have known Fuck Buddy Number One and have been fucking him for about two years, give or take. We do have a friendship and even started out dating each other. We have been through some things that I can't talk about here. Fuck Buddy Number One sat with me until my head stopped spinning and my breathing returned to somewhat normal and I no longer felt like Jodi Foster in ""The Exorcist"". He has been around the longest of any of my fuck buddies and I know I can trust him. +A Fuck Buddy can be a one night stand after a night of drunken debauchery. However, I don't recommend this type of buddy. If alcohol or drugs are involved inhibitions are lowered and he may not have worn a condom and the other person would have been okay with this. This Fuck Buddy can lead to dangerous consequences. Such as a kid or worse, a STD? Who wants those things? I don't. +Even though, I have had my fair share of one night stands and I think of just how stupid and careless I was back in the day. This type of fuck buddy can somehow have his/her wires crossed and believes sex equals love. He/she could end up following you wherever you may go. Popping up at the same grocery store or most frequented places. +The One Night Stand Fuck Buddy is not the way to go for me any longer and hasn't since I was in my twenties. But, hey if someone likes The One Night Stand Fuck Buddy, my best advice is to be very careful. +My boyfriend/Dom is always my very first choice. He understands I love sex and is okay with my hooking up with Fuck Buddy Number One or Fuck Buddy Number Two. Thinking about it now, he is okay with me hooking up with anyone I want to hook up with. Just as long as I tell him about it. Being the loyal and faithful person I am, I do tell boyfriend/Dom about any man who wants to hook up with me. He gets off on someone else wanting me. +When I get that itch that needs to be scratched I prefer Fuck Buddy Number One over Number Two when my boyfriend/Dom isn't around. Reason being, I ALWAYS know where I stand with Fuck Buddy Number One. There are no questions and worries regarding him. We have that mutual respect for one another that I spoke of earlier. Plus, we've been doing this for two years now and we are good friends. He is just the right amount of rough with me. His roughness with me turns me on. Where as, Fuck Buddy Number Two is extremely rough with me. Even when he finger fucks me, I feel like he is invading me in a way that is not pleasurable. +Trust is a big issue with any sex partner, whether it is a fuck buddy or someone on a more intimate level. I don't want them going around talking about me. My sexual prowess is not something I wish to be discussed. I know Fuck Buddy Number One keeps our trysts to himself since he has a girlfriend. Fuck Buddy Number Two, I am pretty sure he keeps our liaisons to himself but I'm not exactly one hundred percent sure. I am only eighty percent sure he does keep it to himself. Trust is the key in any relationship. +A detailed list of MY RULES FOR A FUCK BUDDY goes like this. +1\. Don't fall in love. Love only complicates the whole Fuck Buddy design. Remember, sex is not love. It's hard for someone to not follow this rule because I know I am quite damn lovable. In fact, in a recent phone call with Fuck Buddy Number One, I asked him when he's coming back to town. He is out of town until July Fourth. +I said, ""Damn. I really want some of you."" +He said, ""No worries. Just don't go falling in love with someone else."" +I said, ""No worries."" +Both of my fuck buddies know, I have a boyfriend. Fuck Buddy Number One doesn't really care, where as Fuck Buddy Number Two does seem to care and is barely speaking to me right now. +I don't want to change the Fuck Buddy Dynamic. He had a chance at my heart and he blew it. So now, he only gets pussy. That's the deal and I'm sticking to it. I know Fuck Buddy Number One has a girlfriend already, so he is out of contention for my affections. +2\. Wrap that cock tighter than Fort Knox. Nothing should come out or get in. Fuck buddies should not include a baby or a disease that no one wants to have. Safety for your own health as well as there's should be the main priority. No one wants to be saddled with something they do not want. If you must have an unwrapped cock, make double sure they are safe to have no barriers between the pussy and the cock. Make sure you're still protected from becoming pregnant. +As in my case, I know I am safe with boyfriend/Dom and Fuck Buddy Number One. I am on the pill and smart enough to know where babies come from. I don't want kids at my age now. So my boyfriend/Dom and Fuck Buddy One and Two can shoot a hot, sticky load of cum in my throbbing, waiting pussy. I will have no worries. I do know they all are clean from STD's. I never have to worry about babies or STD's. I don't have to nor do I want to worry about that possible drama entering my life. +3\. Discretion. All trysts and liaisons should be kept between the two parties. If the fuck buddy is married, engaged, or in a long term relationship with someone else, they need not know. If you have to tell someone, make sure that person is trustworthy enough to keep your secrets. This is where the trust comes into play. Trust is key!!! Make sure the Fuck Buddy knows this upfront. +4\. Deny. Deny. Deny. If caught by the fuck buddies significant other, deny, deny, deny. Fuck buddies should be for fun. Personally, I don't want someone's girlfriend or wife showing up on my doorstep. Until they have tangible proof, such as video or pictures. Deny! Deny! Deny! If they can't prove it by those means, it never happened. +5\. Respect. Even though I love sex, I don't fuck anyone I can't respect and can't respect me. I demand and deserve respect. I am not a slut, whore or home wrecker. Some people may call me just that. Still, I want to be respected. I respect all my fuck buddies. Until they stop respecting me, I will stop respecting them and they can kiss my pussy goodbye. +Until next time. +Lascivious Lavendar" +666,My Take on Blowing With Words,RedHairedandFriendly,How To,2007-05-01,2007-05-01,2022-01-04 08:36:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/my-take-on-blowing-with-words,Different examples of writing blowjobs for erotic stories.,"['Blow Job', 'Blowjobs', 'Erotica Advice', 'Married Couple', 'Prostitution', 'Virgin', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Examples']",4.63,"So you want to blow something or someone? Or perhaps you've been blown and you want to know if it was done right? Well, my friend, reader, or stalker, I can't help you there. What this ""How To"" is about, is writing. Yes, I know, writing. . .what was I thinking? I was thinking it would be fun to help individuals find different ways to write a blowjob. I had fun writing ""My Take on Writing a Female Orgasm"" and ""Can You Kiss Me Like This"" and I hope, if you like this ""How To"" you'll check out those as well as others available on Lit. +First, before we go further if you are going to debate me on blow job, or blowjob, then stop reading. I'm going with blowjob, because in my opinion, I like how it looks when writing erotica. I also googled it and it comes up as one word; if Google says it is, you know it has to be true. +Words are flat, unless you are writing with blocks or scrabble tiles. Your words on the screen are going to be flat and typically black. Pretty boring, huh? So what is going to make your story jump from the screen and hopefully land in your reader's lap? Well, colors and detail are certainly going to help. You want to capture the reader and transport them into that flat world of black and show them there is life inside those letters. We're going to assume you have gotten the reader hooked with your character(s) plight and they are now waiting anxiously with bated breath for the hero to get his reward. +I often hear readers and some writers ask: ""Surely you can't write sex forever. I mean really, how many times can you write a blowjob and have it be different?"" I raise a brow and say, many, many, many times. It is all in the way you, the writer, put the words together. You can't use the same words over and over again, or not only will your readers become bored, but you as a writer will too. At least I know I would. So let's get blowing. + **Her first time/His first time** +The following is a quick blurb of two friends, both eighteen, written from the girl's view. The couple in this mini-story have known each other for years. Their parents are good friends and very conservative in the upbringing of their children, or so they think. + _Becky licked her lips as she stared at Nate's cock. She wasn't sure what she was supposed to do with it, but she knew it involved her mouth and tongue. She glanced up and saw the same look of nervousness in his eyes that she knew her's held. She swallowed hoping to find some moisture in her dry mouth. ""It's so . . .odd,"" she whispered, reaching out to touch the head. He jerked and she pulled her hand away. ""Did that hurt?"" she asked._ +Nate shook his head, his eyes wide. He glanced at the clock. ""Beck, we don't have to do this. Your mom is supposed to pick you up in a little bit. We could get caught."" +""No Nate. I want to do it. I heard Samantha telling Darla that she sucked Adam's cock and he came in her mouth and Darla asked her how it tasted. Sammy said it was wonderful. Samantha's always doing things with Adam that she says is wonderful. I'm tired of being kept in the dark. I want to know what it means when a boy says 'blow me.' I thought I knew, but Rachel made a comment about me thinking it meant to blow on a boy's dick. Well. . .Nate, that is what I thought it meant."" +Nate groaned. ""I know Beck and I told you what it meant. It doesn't mean you have to do it."" +""Have you ever had a blowjob, Nate? I mean you are older than me."" Becky asked as she moved closer, lowering her face to study the swollen veins of her long- time friend and neighbor's shaft. One of her fingers ran across the largest vein and then up to the head, where she examined the slit. +""No,"" Nate gasped and reached down to hold the base of his cock. ""Just because I'm a year older than you, doesn't mean I've had it done to me. I just know what it means. My parents would shoot me if they knew what we were doing."" +Becky giggled. ""Mine too. You're the best Nate,"" Becky said just before opening her mouth and sticking her tongue out to taste her friend's shaft. She gave it a small lick, then a longer one. ""It doesn't taste different. Just taste like skin."" She shrugged her shoulders and opened her mouth wider, this time she lowered herself over the head of his dick and rolled her tongue around it, toying with the slit. She popped off and licked her lips. ""You ain't peed lately have ya?"" she asked. +Nate blanched. ""Hell no!"" +""I'm just checking; there was something on the tip and well. . ."" +""That's normal. It happens when I get hard and. . .excited,"" Nate replied. ""What's it taste like?"" +Becky shrugged her shoulders. ""Boring, not much flavor, just oily."" She opened her mouth again and went back to exploring his cock with her tongue. She eyed Nate every once in a while as she eased herself up and then down the length. She swallowed saliva as well as the oily liquid that pooled in her mouth. Nate grunted and groaned and Becky smiled inside. She sucked harder and heard her friend hiss. +""Ohh God, Beck. Right there,"" he whispered just as her tongue pushed against the front of his dick. Eventually Becky felt his fingers in her hair, petting her and she felt her own excitement growing. She ignored the feeling of pressure in her sex that was trying to distract her and concentrated on Nate. She wanted to hear him moan and whimper some more. She bobbed up and down, then pushed his hand away from the base of his dick and replaced it with her own. She closed her eyes and rubbed his dick with her fingers, rolled her tongue around the tip of his rod before she slid him back into her mouth. +She saw where her fingers were and wanted to try and suck all of him down. Deeper she went, but then gagged and retreated. Nate apologized, but Becky just shrugged her shoulders and continued to suck on what would fit in her virgin mouth. Soon she heard Nate talk about ""coming."" Immediately she thought of her mom and quickly sucked harder and faster. ""Ooooh yesss!"" Nick growled and held his hands in Becky's hair. +She shook her head, still thinking they were going to get caught. Just as she was about to pop off her friend's cock, a spray of hot liquid filled her mouth. She gagged on the salty flavor and spit out the concoction, swallowed what she couldn't dispel and watched as a second volley of white cream leapt from Nate's dick. It landed on his stomach and she glanced up at him. His eyes were closed and his lips parted as he tried to breathe. ""Nate? Who was coming?"" Nate moaned and chuckled softly, before pulling Becky back up to the couch. +Hopefully you felt the innocence or the questioning curiosity of the two characters. Certain words are used to portray their ""ignorance"" in a subject that many people know about, but not all. Being realistic helps add appeal to a story. Becky didn't know what was oozing from her friend's cock, so she asked a natural question. She shrugged her shoulders, showing she wasn't aroused, but curious. She didn't moan and beg for more of his cock. She was there to learn about this ""wonderful"" thing her sister Samantha knew so much about. +Nate, he wasn't as naive as young Becky, but he too was new to it all. Granted you don't get to dive into his mind, but you can with just a few key words, give the reader a hint as to what he was feeling. He didn't want to rush Becky or scare her, but his actions showed his desire as well as their bond. Nate didn't insist she do it. He tried to give her a way out. By touching her hair in a soft manner he reached out to her, encouraged her without being forceful. What was he thinking? It could have been anything from ""Damn, I should have gotten blown a long time ago!"" or ""Harder! Becky, harder!"" Instead he told her ""Right there."" He made it a point to tell his friend she was doing just right. +Realism to a story helps bring it life. Becky didn't deep-throat her friend, nor swallow. She wasn't there to be the next porn star. She was there to learn, nothing more, nothing less. Nate. . .he was a very willing guinea pig. + **Paid Pleasure** +This next example is exactly what the title says. A blowjob written from a man's point of view and he's paid for a quick blowjob from a pro, or at least he hopes she is. + _Mike watched the redhead deep-throat him. His fingers were buried in her hair and he felt the heat of her breath cover his balls. He hadn't thought about paying for a blowjob until he'd shared his lack of sexual contact with anyone, to a colleague at work. That colleague had given him a number and a name, followed by a wink and a slap on the back. Mike made the call and arranged a meeting for him and Debbie._ +As soon as he closed the door to the flea-bag hotel and dropped a twenty on the table, Debbie was on her knees and freeing his zipper. She had her mouth on his cock faster than any previous girlfriend had and was working him into a mind-numbing state of madness. His hands had instinctively wrapped around her oily locks. Mike pumped in and out of her, encouraging her to continue with her sucking and swallowing motions. +When she pulled off, he groaned in disappointment, even telling her to get back to it. She'd giggled, opened her mouth and inhaled his balls. That should have been his undoing, but it wasn't. He leaned back against the door and was treated to her version of a quick suckle and roll motion with each hard sphere. When she was done lashing his sack with her hard firm licks Mike was ready to burst, but again she popped off and went back to his rod. +That was when she started the deep-throating. He knew she was well worth another twenty. No one had ever taken his thick tool to the depths she was taking it. Her fingers never stopped moving either. She palmed his packaged, squeezed his balls and rolled them between her callused hands. He shuddered when one of her fingers pressed against his ass and then he felt the dragging sensation of her teeth as they ascended up the full length of his dick and back down again. +Mike couldn't wait any longer. He grabbed Debbie's head hard and slammed back into her. He felt her nails dig into his skin and knew she was holding on to his massive rod with all her strength. He pumped in and out of her, controlling the action until his come was shooting from his tightened balls and splashing against her worn throat. His fluids shot free a second time, then a third. When he did ease up, he felt her breath surrounding him as she began to pop off and slide down, making sure she left his dick clean. +""Fuck. . .,"" he muttered as he gazed down on her cream-coated lips. He watched her lick the full flesh and then rise up. He reached into his back pocket, pulled another twenty from its black leather as she picked up the one from the table. ""Same time tomorrow?"" he asked. +""Unless a better deal comes along,"" she answered. +Mike shook his head in understanding, zipped up and opened the door. Debbie stepped out and Mike followed. +Not as innocent as the first example. A bit more quick and rushed, perhaps? I hope so, because that is what I wanted. This isn't a romance; this is Debbie's reality, but Mike's purchase. There is no love, no hidden emotions, no desires that one rescue the other from life's path. A blowjob for money. +The words portray that Mike is tired of using his hand. He wants the real thing and he's willing to pay for it. This colleague at work. . .why did Mike go to them? Did he know that the colleague had the means to arrange for Mike to find that release? Mike wanted it raw; he wanted no strings attached; he wanted a quick come. He got it. +Debbie? We don't know what Debbie wanted. This was for Mike, not her. She got her money. She told him she'd meet him again, if something better didn't come along. How realistic was that? No promises for more. Just a simple purchase between two people. + **Devoted** +Carol and John are married, happily even, not something everyone is lucky enough to proclaim, but for a fantasy world, they can shout it to the Heaven's. This version will, I hope, give you a chance to read something from both their points of view. + _John cupped Carol's cheek and pulled her closer to his shaft. His eyes were full of want and his cock jerked in anticipation for her tender touch. It had been a while since they had indulged in slow seduction, but this night was special. It was their anniversary and Carol had told him that she was passing on desert at the restaurant, because she had something else in mind. John had known what she meant and his slacks had grown tight and remained that way all through dinner and the cab ride home. Now she was going to torture him and he knew it. . .and he loved it._ +Carol ran her tongue across her lips and then her teeth. She gave an evil grin as she toyed with the sharpest ones and giggled when her husband winced at the threat. Her face relaxed and she returned to the seductive temptress she was wanting to portray. One hand moved up John's thigh, her nails grazing his skin and skipping lazily through the coarse hairs of his leg. ""Ready baby?"" she asked as she tilted her head at an angle and exhaled a slow, long, warm, draw of breath against his balls. +""Yesss,"" he muttered, slipping his fingers into her hair, as he sat back on the edge of the bed. He gazed at her as she lowered her lips to his balls and pressed a gentle kiss to the underside. The soft pressure gave him a shiver that seemed to slide up the full length of his cock. ""Damn, baby. You know how much I want to fuck your mouth?"" +""Yeah, I know, but you have to wait. This is my dessert and I want it to simmer a little,"" she whispered. John groaned, then lay back on the bed, letting his wife have her way with him. +As her husband tried to get comfortable Carol's hands moved to his hips. One traveled up to tease his chest hairs, eventually finding his left nipple. Her nail traced its shape, while her other hand managed to find a home around his shaft. She opened her mouth and used her tongue to prod his right testicle into her mouth. Once it was settled against her teeth, she stroked it slowly, making sure to roll it several times and suck it back toward her throat. She heard him groan and whisper, ""Carol."" She smiled and released the wet orb, noted the different color of a freshly sucked ball and one that hadn't been teased. Soon however the other sphere was being given its own tongue bath and was equal to its twin in hue. +John lay on the bed, feeling his cock jerk in his wife's soft hand. He pushed up into her slow, teasing stroke and muttered a low groan of approval when her fingers moved to the spongy head and she began to knead it like a lump of dough. His hand moved to cover the one that lay on his chest. He bent forward just enough to lift her hand from his body and bring it to his lips. He kissed each finger, sucking softly on the index one, before gliding it down his torso to lay against his stomach. ""Carol baby, please,"" he muttered, ""I don't know if I can take it. You're going awfully slow."" +""You like it slow, don't you baby?"" she asked as she licked her way up one vein and down another. In time she lifted his cock and wrapped a long lazy stroke around the base of his member before sliding the wet muscle to the top of his shaft. ""You want me to go faster?"" she asked, before drawing just the head of his dick into her mouth. +""Fuck yes,"" he told her and then sighed when her lips rolled over the head and then another inch further down. She slipped up, then down. Over and over she maneuvered his cock into the welcoming blanket of heat and moisture. Her fingers massaged his balls and her other hand circled the base of his dick. Her goal was to work him back far enough that he would feel her throat. She angled her mouth, sucked hard and felt several drops of pre cum spill onto her tongue. Moaning in pleasure, she swallowed them and increased her strokes for more. +""Carol!"" John shouted a bit louder than he realized. He felt her chuckle around his cock and then was rewarded with what he had been praying for. She increased both the rhythm and pressure. He felt as if her fingers were everywhere, moving from his balls to his shaft and then down further to toy with the sensitive flesh between his sack and ass. +Carol felt the surge of his blood pumping through his veins. She sucked harder, working her muscles to draw the fluids from his balls up through his cock and then splash at the back of her throat. She growled low, the hum vibrating around her husband's shaft. He jerked again, another shot of come sailed into her mouth and she drank it up with a drawn out, ""Mmm."" +I hope you're able to see a bit more detail, a slower build up and a bit more emotion between the characters. Carol wanted to tease her spouse, but eventually she gave in. Why? Was she as aroused as him and hungered for her dessert? Did she recognize the need in his voice and want to please him by making him come fast? Again, a lot of these questions can be answered with the words, you the writer, write for the reader. Paint your picture and then sit back and relax. +A blowjob can be just as exciting as any other erotic writing. You can write out the same ol' stuff, or you can look at it from another angle. Speaking of angles. . . an upside-down blowjob would be a fun one. Underwater. Two girls on one guy. See there are so many ways to blow. Enjoy yourself and have fun with the words; your readers will appreciate it. +* + **Author's Note:** +This story was entered in the ""How To"" Contest 2007 here at Literotica.

This is just a tool you can use to help you write your version of a female orgasm. Is it the only tool out there? Good grief, NO! Just my opinion on a subject I have written a few times and experienced too. +Many authors I have talked to are men. They can only imagine what a woman is feeling when she climaxes and then only if she shares it with him. A woman can only share what they are feeling if she can find the words that describe it. There are various types of orgasms. There are the ones that are quick and fast. There are short ones that last for a moment and are highly pleasurable, and then there are the mind-blowing, body-thrashing, pussy-numbing climaxes that make me feel as if I'm going to pass out. +Quick and fast climaxes are great. They tend to be raw and hurried, but very nice. In writing one of these I try to see what has led up to this point. Were my characters fighting? Were they in a dangerous situation just minutes before and now the adrenaline is pumping through their veins as well as their sexes? +The orgasms I write for those scenes are usually full of raw words. Lava. Heat. Crash. Slam. Coat. I try to imagine colors also. Reds. Oranges. Golds. Yellows. Black. Silvers. They are all important and all can be used as the orgasm rips through your character. + _Carol screamed as Mike's cock made one last plunge into her slick sex. The cliff fell away and her body slammed against the shores as her climax tore through her. Her eyes rolled, her back arched, and her muscles clenched his shaft. Rolling waves of heat coated her pussy. It rolled down to cover her lover's cock and as the white, hot nectar flowed thick from her sex, Carol knew she was his. He owned her and with every crashing wave that followed she continued to ride the tide that spontaneously forced his come to shoot out of him._ +The second wave of Carol's climax brought red sheets of silk and she bit her lower lip, bruising the tender flesh. ""Oh my God "" she cried. Her fingers curled into the blanket and she felt as if she were hitting the rocky shores of a great ocean. Her body convulsed as she came until finally her breathing held and her body stiffened. ""Fuck "" she yelled and stilled. +In that example you can see the explosion, or at least I hope you can. It is a fast paced orgasm. It seers the character. She feels so much heat that her body is almost on fire. The colors help. They relate to how the heat of the moment is all consuming and bright. Words are like paint, you the writer, has to paint the picture with the color of black ink. You have to give your work dimension. If you don't, then how does the reader see what you want them to see? +Another orgasm is the virgin orgasm. Now realistically not many virgins will experience an orgasm, but a writer wants their character to have them. They can be written. They just have to be written with class and style. I'm not saying this is the only way, but to me a virgin having an orgasm the first time she has sex should be classy, even if it may not be realistic. +I've written virgin sex. I have been true to the pain of it, the nervousness, the insecurity of not knowing what is happening, but knowing something wonderful waits on the other side. Words that help here are calming and romantic ones. Silk. Lace. Satin. Caress. Velvet. Some colors that can work are white, silver, purple, pink. Textures play a big part as well. The word juice gets used a lot, even I am at fault and tend to fall back to that word when I'm at a loss. A writer can try: syrup, honey, nectar, liquid silk, liquid satin. Again it is really the writer's preference to the scene before. In the following example see if you can feel the nervousness and then the eventual promising climax. + _Daniel pressed into his Bride. His eyes rolled as he felt his cock slowly become one with her. He pushed gently, easing his sex deeper into her moist pussy. He felt the barrier and took a deep breath. He opened his eyes and focused on the beautiful creature beneath him. Her eyes were closed, her face a mask of both heated bliss and uneasiness. ""Ahh. . .Mary,"" Daniel whispered and slid his cock in the remaining inches. He felt the barrier break and his sigh of contentment was drowned out by the sorrow he felt in his heart as his soul-mate cried out in pain._ +Mary's body tightened. The instinct to push him away from her was intense. The pain had been shocking to her. It ripped and burned her. She cried out as hot tears fell from her eyes. Her breathing was hard, but she knew that the pain would cease; she just had to wait. She flexed her fingers and slowly opened her eyes; the blue orbs glistened. She licked her lips. Her chest rose as she took another deep breath and shook her head yes. She hissed when her Husband of only a few hours pulled his hard cock partially out of her. It was several minutes before Mary completely relaxed and then after several more caressing strokes her body welcomed him. Her mind no longer focused on what had occurred, but was occurring. +As the tempo of Daniel's loving increased Mary's fingers moved over her warmed skin. She could feel the build up of something special and she lifted her hips to claim it. It was there, just within reach and when Daniel leaned down, his cock went deeper. He captured her nipple with his teeth. Mary reached the point of no return. ""Daniel "" she cried as her body seemed to float and fall. . .only to float again. The sheets of liquid silk cascaded down from her pussy and blanketed her lover with its warm honey. Her nails dug into his arms and Mary whimpered for more. Her come surrounded Daniel. It traveled down to her thighs, covering them like ribbons of fine lace. She begged and pleaded for more as the slivers of passion continued to pierce her thoughts and bring her to the edge and back again. +Another tricky orgasm for some folks to write is the climax brought on by masturbation. This is different for every woman, so by all means don't look at your character and think this is the kind of self-pleasured climax your character is having. Again it all boils down to what brought her to the point where she needed to seek her release without a partner. Is she single? Significant other out of town? Perhaps she is reliving a memory, or living the fantasy she's read on Literotica +Also, toys are a big thing with orgasm. You just can't write that a toy was used and she came. You need to focus on everything about that toy. The temperature, texture, flexibility, even coloring of the toy can heighten a person's writing and reading. Which would you rather use in your writing. . .long, thick, peach-colored cock, or the rubber dildo? The picture is in the words and it is your job to portray the picture. Simple words like toy, cock, dildo, vibe, are all great words and can be overused if you're not careful, but can present an erotic image if paired with the right words. + _Mandy's fingers ran over the glass phallus toy. The owner of the Adult Store had allowed her to handle the beautiful piece of art while he took care of a customer. Mandy looked around and saw she was alone, the owner and the customer were in the far corner discussing clit massagers. Mandy's attention was drawn back to the thick glass in her hands and she slowly unbuttoned her blouse and walked to the opposite side of the room. Her fingers moved into her blouse to tease her nipples. As she held the ruby, red toy in her hand, she lifted her skirt. Mandy wasted no time in pushing the head of the cold cock between her panties and her cunt. She began to thrust the exquisite device into her slick pussy and fuck herself hard and fast._ +She leaned against the corner wall and bit her tongue to keep from crying out as she drove herself higher and higher. Her eyes remained open as the head of her pleasure toy slid in and out of her pussy. She felt her excitement grow as she heard the voices of the owner and the customer coming closer. She increased her rhythm and as the embers burning inside her reached their highest point Mandy dropped to her knees and came. Flames licked at her soul and the lava poured down her veins. She covered the smooth, hand-blown rod with her cream, soaked her fingers with her nectar and saw it drip onto the floor as her body rocked back and forth. +Inside she was being consumed as the walls of fire burned deep inside her. Her eyes rolled back and she tried to breath as well as stay quiet. The need to scream was overwhelming and when the rod made one last thrust into her cunt, Mandy lost the battle and shouted, ""Fuck "" Her pussy lips became numb from the fucking she continued to give herself. The color of the sunset erupted behind her now clenched lids. Oranges blended with reds, gold slammed into sliver, and black fucked white. Sheets of the fiery liquid coated her fleshy walls as Mandy became one with her toy. +Orgasms are a work of art, just like a painting one wrong move and you either lose a Masterpiece of you change the tempo and you begin again. In real life, I've lost count as to how many ""almost there"" orgasms I've had. It can be anything that kills an orgasm in real life. That knock on the door and the whispered, ""Mom, are you okay?"" or the withdrawal of his cock and when he moves to slam it back into you it hits the edge of your opening and ""oops"" missed the hole. Perhaps you're interrupted by the annoying squeak of the bed, the unexpected doorbell, or the damn phone that rings just as you are about to hit that high and not look back. ""Ahhh, real life, what a pleasure."" This is writing fantasy, so no interruptions. Your female character is about to have that mind-numbing, heart-stopping, fist-clenching orgasm I mentioned earlier. +What goes into something like that? It is up to you. What goes into my character's multiple experience? Words. . . words. . . and more words. I've been called wordy, long-winded, descriptive, but I also don't focus on just the nipple and the pussy. The entire body is involved in an orgasm and that is what I write. Every part is alive with passion. Every part is important and should not be ignored. +Look at your character and decide why this orgasm is THE ORGASM Then find those words. You can use any of the ones I've used in the past examples. You can use different ones. You can use words that many find offensive in real life. Just write what you are seeing in your mind and then find an editor if you aren't good at editing. . .I try to do that all the time +So here is my final example. I hope you feel it. + _I felt the concrete bite into my skin as he fucked me. He'd followed me all day. It was my fantasy. He was supposed to take me when he was ready. I was supposed to fight him off, and that thought had kept me on edge throughout the entire afternoon. My lover was out there I knew he was. Now as he drove his cock into my sweet pussy I could feel my orgasm building. We had battled. I had fought him, though I knew deep down I would lose. We had our word. It never fell from my lips as he tore the blouse off my body and lifted my skirt._ +My nipples scrapped the wall of the boutique and I knew my moans were echoing down the alley way. The scrap of his cock against my cunt brought me closer to the volcanic explosion that was threatening to consume me. ""Bitch "" he growled. ""Fucking whore "" he muttered. +I pushed back and my nails dug into the cold, slab of gray rock. His mouth came down and bit my shoulder. I screamed and came for him. I exploded over his cock and showered his dick with my hot fluids. My muscles clenched his shaft and I pushed deeper onto his massive tool. His balls slammed against my ass and I felt myself shake with lust. ""Ohh. . .fuck "" My hand moved to my clit and as he fucked me I pulled the strip of slippery flesh. +Cascading falls of melted honey flowed down the velvet sides of my pussy. Every joint in my body stiffened. I couldn't breathe, think, or speak. For a moment I couldn't see. I just was. . .I just existed in the black abyss that was void of all feeling and color. Then as if someone flicked a switch, a blinding shot slammed into me and my eyes shot open. ""OH MY GOD "" I screamed as his shot of seed filled my cunt. ""OH FUCK "" I growled as the rapid waves of come slithered down my body, soaking my lover, dripped down his shaft, enveloping his balls, and slid over my creamy white thighs. +He kept impaling me. Another river of fire shot from his cock and collided with my nectar. The juices of our sex mingled and while they did the temperature only added to my frenzied fuck. I came over and over as I reached the mountain and fell back down. He lifted me up, carried me higher, and I crashed again. Each climax was unique and when the final one was pulled out of me I cried. My tears flowed down my face, my head pounded in pain. My lungs hurt. My throat was dry. My lips were sore from the constant biting. The joints in my ankles, knees, elbows ached. Even my fingers tingled. +* + _Am I right in what I've told you? I won't ever claim to be a professional writer. I'm not. I'm just someone that loves to write. If what I've written helps you to become better at writing something that can be difficult, then great. If it didn't help, then I do hope you find what your looking for. I'm not the only fish in the sea and there are so many wonderful ""How to"" writers out there. I'm just glad you stopped to read my suggestions. Thanks for that. ~ Red._" +668,My Thoughts on Writing Erotica,epiphany65,How To,2006-06-06,2006-06-06,2022-01-04 08:36:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/my-thoughts-on-writing-erotica,Things author considers important to good story writing.,"['Erotic Stories', 'Free Erotic Stories', 'How To', 'Writing', 'Xxx Stories']",4.6,"I wish this section was called ""Advice"" or ""Encouragement"" rather than ""How to"". ""How to"" seems a little more emphatic than what I want to say. Still, I feel like putting in my two cents worth. +I was a long-time reader of Literotica before I dared attempt writing a story myself. It was only once my dissatisfaction with what I had read prompted me to give it a try that I finally sat down and began to type. I was conceited enough to think I could write as good a story, or better, as those I had read. My confidence soon gave way to humility and frustration as I discovered that writing involved more than turning my dirty thoughts into words. Over time, and several attempts, I eventually began to learn that there were several key ingredients to making a story believable and erotic. What I'm attempting to do here is elaborate on some of these and maybe help fellow authors to become better authors, and encourage those who are still too shy to submit their attempts to do so. Here is what I think matters -- feel free to disagree: +DIALOGUE Read it, again and again if you must -- then aloud once more. Do you speak like that? Do the people you know speak like that? If the answer is ""No"" then re-write until it _sounds_ believable -- literally. +TEMPO People sometimes meet and within an hour they are having sex. This happens, but it's not the norm -- especially in situations that are taboo for one reason for another: gay, lesbian, interracial, and incestuous encounters -- not to mention non-human, I reckon. I could perhaps add trysts where one partner is married, or is unaccustomed to kinks like BD/SM, or is reluctant/resistant. Prolonging the seduction, and the ultimate culmination, not only makes the story more believable, but it also increases the excitement for the reader and makes the release more intense. +DESCRIPTION ""He squeezed her breast."" Did he squeeze her left breast or her right one? Did it feel firm or like a rotten tomato? Was he unable to fit all of it within his hand or pinch it easily between his fingers? Details help the reader to envision in his or her mind what you are describing. This in turn heightens their arousal and adds to their enjoyment of your story. It's better to give too many details than not enough, I think. Are his eyes brown or blue? Is she under or over six feet tall? These descriptions ultimately matter to the reader. When s/he grabbed his cock was it hard, thick, hot, long, short, twitching, or did it feel like a cold carrot? We need to know these things. +SPELLING, GRAMMAR, ETC. This is my greatest weakness. I have had several stories rejected because of spelling errors and it's embarrassing to be rejected for something that amounts to carelessness and being lazy. Finding a good freeware word processing program online with a spell check solved this problem for me. Another common problem I have noticed is authors who can't differentiate between words such as ""their"" and ""there"" and so on. Literotica has dozens of volunteer editors who are more than willing to help authors with various aspects of their stories -- be it spelling, grammar, plot outline or simply critiquing them for style or plot. I have used them in the past and found their help and input invaluable. Do not hesitate to contact one of them before you submit a story, even if you consider it perfect. Find an editor who is willing to edit stories dealing with the subject matter yours is about and contact her/him. Bear in mind that many editors are only willing to accept stories of particular themes -- consult their profile to ensure your story meets their criteria before you contact them. +DIFFERENT STROKES Many, if not all, authors seem to write about subjects that especially interest them, myself included. This may be self-indulgent, but that does not necessarily mean that their kinks aren't shared by others. Don't be discouraged from writing a story because you feel that no one else will be interested in what you are. You might be surprised by how many others share your interests. +WRITE AND SUBMIT This I feel the most important piece of advice I want to share. If you have an idea for a story, begin writing it down -- whether it's on paper or a text file on your computer. Even if you have no idea where how story will end or what the characters' names are, start by making notes or a plot outline. Let your imagination and dirty mind run free and see where it takes you. Once you have finished your story and are happy with it -- submit it! You have nothing to lose. If you're not a member, sign up with a username as an alias. No one (not your spouse, family members, friends, co-workers, or pets) will ever know you are the author. If you receive Feedback that you find unflattering remember that it's easier to criticize than to take the bold step you have taken by submitting your work for all to see and judge. How many of you have finished reading a story and thought ""I could have written that!""? Well, you're right! Unfortunately you have probably talked yourself out of doing just that many times. +MY PROMISE So far what I've written I consider my opinions based on what experience I have. I've tried to not be too dogmatic about it, but I want to finish with something I know for a fact: Your first story is the hardest to write, but if you keep at it and continue writing you will get better at it and find it easier each time. After you have written a number of stories you will re-read your first one or two and be unhappy with them because you will have become a better writer than you once were. +YOUR PROMISE This is a promise that I want you to make to yourself. No one else in the whole world will ever know about it; just you. Promise yourself that you will stop listening to those thoughts of doubt and guilt that have prevented you from writing. Turn those wicked fantasies you would be ashamed of people knowing you have into words and submit them. You will find it a very rewarding experience." +669,My Version of a Great Blowjob,vaughn28,How To,2003-07-07,2003-07-07,2022-01-04 08:36:53,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/my-version-of-a-great-blowjob,A woman's guide to giving a great blowjob.,"['Blowjob', 'Deepthroat', 'Handjob', 'Oral', 'Stroke']",4.52,"My Version +What a man wants and what will pleasure his cock to get him to blast a big load of cum. The following is one way to please a man…the intimate act of fellatio. A woman must want to perform this for him, and not make it a chore. If you have an attitude like you have to do it, then just forget it, he will not enjoy the process and neither will you. It will take you much longer to get him to blow a load if you do this just to be doing it. +What I'm going to teach you today is a combination of a blowjob and handjob all at the same time. Both work well by themselves, but doing these techniques at the same time will give you, and him, the most amount of pleasure far better than each of you thought you could ever be able to do. +Get yourself and him in a comfortable position. With him completely naked and yourself at least topless. Have him sit in a chair, sitting on the edge and laying back a bit and you on your knees between his legs, this will allow you to get real close. You might want to grab a pillow also, it can help your knees not to get too sore. Puuhhleeze trim them nails as to not scrape, scratch, or cut into his cock...real mood crasher. You don't need to cut them off just make sure they're each smooth all around. Oh, and painted red which makes them sexy. +First, the most important part of this process is very good lubrication to start the balls rolling (he he). But once you get into your task you'll have all the lubricatant you need from his leaking so much precum you'll have more than you need. So, start off by using anything that will work and what's handy. You know what I'm sayin', if you don't know, then ask him cause he will for sure. +Now to begin, by using your hands and LIPS, rub his legs and thighs up and down not to forget the insides of the thighs which are very sensitve and does give great pleasure, keep doing this until you feel he is relaxed and ready to proceed. Gently touch his balls with your fingers, lifting them, weighing them, massaging them, rubbing your face all around on them. Pulling his sack gently down toward the floor, never out to you, remembering not to smash his balls, this will hurt bad. Pulling down will cause his forskin on his shaft to tighten up and pull his cock out towards you at the same time so you can lick, suck and tease the head. Use your other hand to run your fingertips up and down the shaft. If he is still soft, this will surely get him hard! I doubt his cock will be soft. Remember that his cock is not only above the balls, it is also below them as well. The shaft goes all the way to the anus. Rubbing and stroking firmly down there on that spot between his balls and anus a few times will get him going. +Now, making the ""OK"" sign with your thumb and index finger, don't worry if you can't touch your fingers together once you have them around his shaft, the point is, to be barely touching the shaft, start by stroking very slowly. Do not touch the head just yet until you do this for at least 20-30 strokes slowly all the way from the base of his shaft to just under the head. After that go to the head, using the same ""OK"" sign, stroke the underside of the crown in very short very quick strokes up and down rubbing the crown only and not touching the shaft. Again with 20-30 strokes. +After this point, still using the ""OK"" sign with your fingers, very gently rub the underside of the head and shaft in a back and forth motion (like a washing machine moves). Going with these techniques, varing the amoumt of time you use with each, and you should have his cock leaking alot of precum. From time to time stop everything and grab his shaft like you would grab a handle and squeeze it real firm but gentle, this should bring out a big drop precum to use however you please. Now once you have grasped his cock in a firm grip jerk it up and down a few times allowing his balls to move with your hand as not too stretch the skin too much causing pain. +Now sit up higher and bring your breasts up to rub your nipples all over his cock teasing each of your nipples at the same time while teasing his cock using some of those drops of precum to lubricate your nipples with. Turning him on is the point, right!!! So why not turn yourself on also. Take his cock by the base with your thumb and first two fingers and with your other hand hold one of your tits out, using his cock like a hammer to pound your nipples with like you would be driving in a nail 10-15 firm splaps will do (it will make his cock feel great not to mention your nipples). Mashing your tits onto his cock and thighs will be a big turn on for him also. Now put his cock between your tits, hold them together yourself, and rub his shaft with them, using the precum to lubricate with, squeezing them together firmly to form a warm soft pillow for his hard shaft to fit around. Remember not to cover your nipples with your fingers because men like to look at a nipple gettin hard, also he can pinch, pull, and twist'em to tease you too. A big turnon for guys is to watch a woman touch herself in a way that makes her enjoy the moment. After a little bit of this treatment make him take your breasts so he can work them up and down on his cock and you can concentrate on working the head with your mouth also using your hands on his balls. +At this point, you might want to begin the blowjob. Start by taking one of his balls in your mouth, kissing them, sucking them, feeling their heat. Be gentle, as they are tender. Doing the same to both, putting both in your mouth if you can. Taking your time, time should not be an issue here. NEVER NEVER use your teeth at all at any point, this is very important. He might be moving about a bit, or letting you know by grunting or groaning, of your doing a good job. When you are ready, run your tongue up his shaft and all around it, lightly but firmly, stopping to kiss him here and there. Pause, tell him how much you like to suck on his cock and want to make him cum, to feel it throb (by this point you should be into it as much as he is, you know what to say!) Move back down, stroking him, kissing his cock. Then, get very close to the head, and blow gently all over his cock and his balls and thighs. Slowly, lick the head, around and around, slipping your tongue over his slit across the ""V"" area. This is what will really will please his cock, so be careful and not overdue it. Stop, and run your tongue along the shaft while using your thumb, gently rub the head back and forth over that ""V"" spot just below his slit. Run your tongue to his balls, playing with them, pulling them down, sucking them into your mouth then kiss your way back to the head. +Now, not all cocks will be alike. This is where you have to decide what your pace is when you suck him. You can suck him fast and hard or slow and hard, let him calm down at some point, or you can take him to the end, but I would suggest that you take your time. Continue to lick and suck him, going up and down and all around. Do not feel like you have to take him all the way to the end. Take your time, whats the hurry? Go back to the ""OK"" technique. Run your hands all over his crotch area around to his ass and pull him into your mouth to let him know that you like what your doing for him. The longer you make this last for him, the more he will cum and the more intense it will be for the both of you. +At some point he will put his hands on your head, trying to fuck your face, let him. Soon he will be cumming. How fast, how hard and how much will depend on you. How do you know when he will cum? He'll be moving about, thrusting some, maybe making some noise. He may or may not tell you before he cums, ask him to tell you, cause you don't need any surprises. His balls will draw up some, and he will get harder, his cock will start throbbing really hard and there might be some advanced cum. His cock will throb real hard one or two times before it shoots out its load. +The intensity of his orgasm will be relative to your performance. When he cums take him as deep as you can, swallowing him down till your nose is mashed into his pubes, you must learn how to do this. Learning to deepthroat will get a man to do whatever you want, whenever you want (I mean WHATEVER YOU WANT). Relaxing the throat to avoid gagging is a trick you will have to learn from practice, practice, practice. I doubt you will have any trouble letting you practice. When he is done shooting cum down your throat be gentle with his cock, as it will be very tender. Light, soft sucking and licking on the head and all around the head will have his whole body jerking giving him spasms throughout his body long after he has cum, you will feel those spasms right through his cock. With the right amount of pleasure at this time his cock just might set him blasting into another orgasm. +Another way to let him cum, is shooting it on his stomach, with a towel across it (or not). Start by stroking him really, really fast at that point you know he is about to cum, and not before. At that very moment you feel his cock grow, it gets real hard and starts throbbing, absolutely stop stroking it. Let him cum, but never let go, just firmly hold it and feel his cock pulsate in your hand. Once he has had about 4-5 hard throbs (that is shooting wads) start to slowly stroke his cock when he's aproaching near the end. Rubbing his cum up and down the shaft, gently squeezing him letting him come back down to earth till he has finished. Once his cock has stopped throbbing, STOP STROKING YES STOP, just GENTLY rub him, the sensation will be very extreme around and underneath the head. Gently, gently, gently rubbing the head on the underside of the crown with your fingers or lips, much preference from your lips than from your fingers. Don't forget about pulling his balls down the whole time during this (still, not smashing them). When your done, hopefully, if you've done it all correctly you will have a big mess to clean up, or lick up. +One trick that you might want to try is that spot just under his balls and above the anus, remember that spot... well listen up... When you feel that his cock is going to start to explode, let go of his balls and press real firm just above the anus with the first three fingers, but without using your fingernails. Once you feel his cock starting to shoot, press that spot firm until his cock throbs twice and only twice, more than that could cause pain for him. Then release the pressure right before you feel the third pulse and stand back cause its gonna blow and blow hard. +Now all you women out there get to work on some hard COCK near you. You do know, a hard cock is a terrible thing to waste...LOL" +670,My Views On Writing Erotica,EroticaSeanStyle,How To,2003-03-19,2003-03-19,2022-01-04 08:36:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/my-views-on-writing-erotica,A Literotica author shares his views on writing.,"['Erotica', 'People Write', 'Write', 'Write Erotica', 'Writing', 'Writing Style']",3.76,"I know there are several stories in the ""How To"" section of Literotica.com regarding the topic of writing erotic stories. To tell you the truth, I've never read them and I really don't plan to. So why am I writing my own dissertation on this topic? Because everyone has their own point of view. Not everyone is correct, not everyone is wrong. I just want my voice to be heard. +So why write erotica? +First, in order to write erotica, you have to love sex. If you don't like sex, you can't go far with this topic. I enjoy sex. I like reading about sex, whether it be passionate love making or hard core fucking. +Second, the reason I write about sex is because I simply enjoy writing. It is just another genre that I choose to tackle. I also put my all into writing, whether it be news, sports, fiction or erotica. You have to become your writing, make it a part of you. The reason why people say I'm such a good writer is because I put my heart and soul into what I'm writing. +There are other reasons for writing erotica. One of the more popular reasons is for their own enjoyment. People enjoy writing erotica simply because they want to amuse themselves. It's a time killer. Some people write a story and are tickled pink that they did, because it is something they would usually never do. And sometimes people masturbate to their own stories because this is their fantasy world. I personally cannot get hard over what I write. I'm too into the telling of the tale to be bothered with whipping it out and beating off. I write my stories for others, either for a segue into the bedroom or just for their own enjoyment. I get pleasure knowing that someone is pleasing themselves with my writing. I like knowing that somewhere someone is reading my stories and is masturbating to them. +Whether its because they don't have a lot of experience in the bedroom or because they are shy and people would be shocked to discover this side of them, some people write erotica to shock the hell out of people. Some of my friends were stunned to find out I have a devious side underneath my All- American Goodie-Two Shoes Male image. A majority of my writing is from my own imagination, only bits and pieces are true. And to be honest, I'm not screwing every female in sight, so when people see that I'm writing about graphic sex, it makes them wonder who the real Sean is. +You have to write what you know, which is the first rule of any type of writing. I like to know what others are writing, then I adapt my stories to what is popular. I want to know what my ""competition"" is. I want to know how others write, I study their methods, yet I don't copy their styles. As soon as I know how others are telling their stories, I can begin my work. I try to write Group Sex or Lesbian Sex stories because from what I've seen, a lot of people click those stories than others. I use my own writing style, and I want to be sure when I am writing erotica my story fits into three general categories: 1. is what I'm writing arousing? 2. is what I'm writing capable of making a person masturbate? and 3. is what I'm writing believable? The second rule is to make sure your writing is clean, concise and makes sense. I have seen a number of stories on this website which have turned me off completely because their writing style is so unpolished. Not everyone is a perfect writer, I understand that, but having an understanding of the English language is fairly imperative. Having someone read your writing before submitting it is also a good idea. A second -- or third, or fourth -- pair of eyes is very helpful. They can catch the mistakes you make. And I always ask my proofreaders the three above questions. And of course, since my ""editors"" are girls, it always helps to wonder if their fingers were busy. Told you, I'm devious. +The most important thing I can tell you about writing erotica is that you're not going to please everyone. I've been a professional writer for nearly a decade, since I was in high school. I've learned to accept criticism without letting it get to me. That is another thing one must do in order to survive as a writer: not letting one's feelings about your work get you down. I've known writers who receive a bad review or have been openly criticized for poor writing, and before you know it, they are not writing anymore. I enjoy receiving feedback from my readers, especially feedback from readers who put their e-mail addresses with their feedback. That shows me they are not afraid of hiding behind their computers and their screen names if they are criticizing me. As you learn to accept criticism, you will forget the negative, yet embrace the positive. +That is the end of my tome. I hope I've inspired some of you to take up a pen -- or a pencil, or a quill, a magic marker, a crayon, or some other writing tool -- and write erotica. I've enjoyed what I've written and I've enjoyed reading your feedback. Good luck and thank you for reading." +671,A Nerd's Guide To Getting Hooked Up,Lothario the Great,How To,2003-11-04,2003-11-04,2022-01-04 08:25:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-nerds-guide-to-getting-hooked-up,Straight talk about successful seduction.,"['Attention Girl', 'Body Language', 'Cool Guys', 'Feel Safe', 'Girl Date', 'Girl Feel', 'Love Sex', 'Nerd', 'Simply Good', 'Won Mind']",4.57,"1\. Overcoming Your Goofiness 2\. The Great Transition 3\. On The Bed, and Other Furniture 4\. The Wow Level +Hey you! Nerd! Yes, you with the Krispy Kreme t-shirt and broken heels on your Doc Martens. What’s the problem, my geeky friend? Wait, I bet I can guess. You either just found out that Blink 182 cancelled their concert in your city, or you haven’t seen non-Internet pussy since you peeped your sister in grade school. And that was last week. Perv. +Listen, it’s alright. I know you’re hungry for sloppy sweat-dripping sex this weekend, if only a good friend would take the time to explain what the fuck women are thinking. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. Sometime women themselves don’t know! And here’s another secret you can write in your journal with the needlepoint R2D2 on the cover: That guy at work with the $30 haircut and bright red necktie from Neiman Marcus ain’t getting any better sex than you are. His days of trial-and-error are hitting a second decade, and he’s seriously considering one of those damn Fleshlights. (They work TOO good, my tempted friend.) +IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY. You could be having sex with an actual girl right now! And more importantly, she WANTS you to give it to her. There’s no denying that the fairer sex requires more maintenance than Rush Limbaugh’s hammock, but at the end of the date, she’s just as horny as you are. She may think you’re a loser with bad taste in music, but that hole between her legs isn’t there for looks. She’s lonely too, and she’s seriously considering one of those damn Dynamic Duos. (Two holes at once, she’ll never be seen in public again. We lost her so young…) +SEDUCTION is the solution. SEDUCTION is fun, for you and for her. Nothing forced, nothing illegal, nothing clumsy. Just good ol’ fashioned charm. In other words, SEDUCTION. Visualize what you want, have a plan for getting it. Be the man for once in your life, for christ’s sake. Take your nuts out of the jar, strap them on, and hit the bricks. Once you’ve discovered life as a man, you’ll never take unstrap them again. Might I suggest how to begin? +1\. Overcoming Your Goofiness +The path to the bedroom lies in self-confidence. HEY! Pay attention, you stunted adolescent. I know you don’t think you have it in you to seduce a woman, but even YOU have an anti-cowardly core deep within you just waiting to burst to the surface and shout, “Hey world, I’m a male! I’m good in the sack! There’s more to me than RPGs and Vanilla Coke and my mom’s hand lotion!” But how to find that core? And more importantly, how to keep it in place during a date? You must find your self-confidence before you’ll be ready for the SEDUCTION in Part 2. +A. ASK GIRLS TO GO ON DATES +News flash, Peter Pan -- the girl won’t ask you. It sucks to get rejected, but it sucks worse tugging your wiener alone in your basement throughout the new decade. Ask a girl, get slammed, ask a girl, get slammed… Yes it’s a pattern, but IT WILL END. One girl will say yes, eventually. I promise! (NOTE: Don’t keep asking the same girl. Trust me, okay? She’s not interested. But someone else is.) +B. PRACTICE NOT-SUCKING +Not-Sucking is your first step toward having a girl say “Yes” to a date. As a former nerd, I truly believe every social outcast knows what behaviors are geeky and which are slightly cool. Social acceptance requires one skill and one skill only: Acting. Cool guys act like other cool guys. They look in the mirror and teach themselves how to smile without any buckteeth protruding. When they see a cool haircut, they try it out when they visit the stylist (NOT barber, Cletus). Eventually, the nerd learns to ACT less nerdy. You’ll master the intricacies of one pick-up line, then two, and eventually you’re making up your own. Not overnight, but you’ve got to start somewhere. Remember that awesome Enterprise model you built with all the fiber optics? That’s the feeling of accomplishment I’m talking about. Set a goal! +C. CREATE A PERSONA, BUT DON’T LIE TO YOURSELF +Girls are a demonic paradox in that they love being lied to, as long as they KNOW they’re being lied to. This is known as the “Bad Boy Syndrome,” wherein bikers tell college coeds that they’re looking for a commitment, and the girl believes him because she wants to see just how big that bulge in his Levi’s will get. If you’re a nerd, start thinking like a biker. What I mean is this: Think about what women want to hear, then practice making it sound believable. But DON’T GO TOO FAR. You can drop a few roguish Bad-Boy elements into your bag of tricks, but you are NOT a biker. You are a nerd. Take it slow. Later, when you’re bored with sex, you can buy a hog. Or a chopper. (I wouldn’t know. I still love sex.) +D. LEARN HOW TO BEHAVE +Once you get the girl on the date, what to do? For starters, all that gentlemanly bullshit they make fun of in the movies? It works. Open her car door, compliment her shoes, ask her where she got her necklace. She might just have an orgasm right there -- that’s how important this stuff is to her. And not because she’s a Barbie-wannabe, but because she needs to know that you’re paying attention to her. Convince her that you aren’t the self-absorbed, non- listening advertising specialist she dated last week. Remember, she’s not a Playstation game! You’re interactive now, my spectacled friend. Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen. If her mouth is moving, be prepared to compliment her eloquence when the movement stops. +E. SAVE UP SOME MONEY, THEN SPEND IT +Some girls think it’s sweet to share a coney at Nathan’s on the first date, but those aren’t the kinds of girls who put out; you’re more likely to swap stories about how both sets of parents messed you up emotionally, and that’s the opposite of sloppy sweat-dripping sex. NO NO NO. What you need is a couple hundred dollars to drop on a bottle of merlot and the most expensive dessert on the menu. She will REEL with ecstasy. And don’t worry about what kind of car you drive (for now); this is about how much you spent on HER, not on yourself. As long as you dress the part and order her a third martini, she’ll be able to tell her girlfriends what you thought she was worth. And that’s really what it’s all about. (NOTE: This is not a hard-and-fast rule. Some girls are actually more interested in your car than your cock. If you sense this is the case, you’ve made a wrong turn. Skip the dessert, cut your loses, head back for Go and collect yet another 200 dollars.) +F. DINNER, NO MOVIE +The perfect after-dinner outing is clubbing or dancing, where you and your date-mate touch each other and get worked up. But you’re a nerd. You want to do something you’re comfortable with, and that means movies. MISTAKE, like a those-rhinestones-you-applied-to-your-Doctor- Who-t-shirt-in-junior-high-sized mistake. She may enjoy the movie, but she won’t want to have sex with you afterward. If you can’t brave the clubs, consider an extended talk at the restaurant table. You’re still listening to her, right? She loves it! No other scenario is better suited to making her want to invite you inside her apartment later for coffee. (NOTE: She doesn’t want “coffee.” She wants sex. But say, “Sure, I’d love some coffee,” instead of “Thanks, I’d love sex.”) +2\. The Great Transition +The date went well? Good for you! All it took was the courage to overcome numerous rejections, and the ability to listen more than you talk. I’m so proud of you. (Back off, dude -- no hugs from anyone in THIS locker room.) And now it’s time for the SEDUCTION. Hopefully you’re in HER apartment, where the curtains match the furniture, instead of your room where a Pink Floyd subway poster covers the ceiling. But if you’re at your place, that’s cool, because she won’t leave right away. What she CAN do is pretend she didn’t want to come back for sex, but only coffee. You must convince her that she wants sex! +(IMPORTANT NOTE: Don’t forget the condoms. Don’t forget the condoms. Don’t forget the condoms. Hey idiot, listen up! Don’t forget the condoms. Your car’s glove box is a good storage place. Do NOT slip one into your wallet -- that didn’t even work in the Fifties.) +A. TAKE YOUR TIME, MR. PREMATURE +Only when a girl feels safe will she want to have sex with another person. Read that sentence again. A woman seeks an emotional connection, even if she isn’t interested in a commitment. That means, once you’re in her apartment, you must continue to listen to her and compliment her. And you thought the hard part was over! Say p-whipped things like, “I’m impressed that your curtains match your furniture.” Then turn around quickly so you glimpse her trying to hide another orgasm. This is also a good time to put on some music. At her apartment, look at her CDs and pick one you genuinely like; at your place, show her what you have. Nothing sucks like making out to music you don’t dig. If she offers coffee, take it. If she offers food, politely decline. +Most important, when you sit down in the living room to continue your gal-pal- style discussion (continued from dinner and the car ride), MAKE CERTAIN you sit on the opposite end of the couch from her. This is where you both start to admit that you’re looking forward to all the sex. If she doesn’t sit on the couch, wander around the living room looking at her framed photos. Make her get up and point out her uncle, then sit down before she can. If you pick the far end of the couch, she’ll feel awkward sitting so far away in the same room. Do not proceed until she’s on the same sofa. (VITAL NOTE: Never take a dump in her bathroom. If you can’t hold it, get out of there quickly but charmingly. The exit line, “I’d hate to ruin a perfect night like this,” is always a sure bet. Remember, keep hope alive for Date No. 2) +B. TAKE A FEW LIBERTIES +Once on the couch, you’re golden. It’s that important. You can watch TV or talk or flip through photos… doesn’t matter. Just don’t leave the couch, because it’s time to INCH. Simply put but laboriously executed, you must find ways to reduce the distance between you and your date on the couch. Shift your body, especially the legs, and lean forward then back then forward again. DON’T GIVE UP! Pay special attention to the girl’s body language. You’ll be surprised how easily you can tell if she’s moving toward you. (To clarify: If she immediately sits beside you on the couch, you just bowled a strike. Proceed quickly.) +C. TAKE CONTROL +Oh boy, Charlie, your moment of truth has arrived. You’ve gotten away with innuendo and body language for a few hours, but the time for pussy-footing is past. You must now INFORM her that you are physically attracted to her and would like to make out. No, don’t repeat that word-for-word! God, you really are a stroke-monkey, ainch’ya? Start with a devilish grin, a coy denial, a wringing of the hands. Draw her in --make her interested. But eventually, you must verbalize your intentions. “I’ve been wanting to kiss you all night, actually.” Or perhaps try, “I’m seriously considering leaning in to kiss you right now. The decision really isn’t mine, it’s something inside me.” And wow, here’s a classic that can have surprisingly strong success: “May I have your permission to kiss you?” +What’s that? You’re not comfortable saying silly shit like that? Well tell me then, how comfortable are you jerking off to a fantasy starring the girl you just dropped off at 8:30? Get it together! I’m not telling you to come across as a weepy puss or a manipulative line-regurgitator. You’re simply looking for a good transition from Friendly to Frisky, and a verbal declaration can do a lot to dissipate the ambiguity. But try what feels best. If she leans in, you lean in. If you’re dancing to the CD she put in, then stop, lean back, look deep into her eyes, and move in slowly for a soft brushing of the lips. See what I mean? TRANSITION. It’s all about paying attention to the girl, and after that long-ass dinner, you’re an expert. +D. TAKE THE DIVE +Once your lips are on hers, make it last. Let her hands go where they want, then mirror her hands. This way, you only cross over the unspoken barriers after she does it first. The alternative is you pawing an uninterested girl with the nerdy moves you learned from Internet porn. Dig deep, find your resolve! You got this far, nerd… keep running for the finish line! Stay classy, stay respectful. In this phase, you’re still making her feel safe. There are a number of ways you can screw-up a simple make-out session, but the best way to avoid disaster is just to keep your focus on First Base. Kiss her, hold her, caress her arms and back (maybe the butt). Breathe on her neck, nibble her earlobes. (These techniques are very hard to get wrong. Trust your instincts, unless they’re telling you to lick her forehead.) And most important: SHUT THE FUCK UP. Now that you declared your intentions to kiss her, nothing more need be said. Examples of regrettable phrases include: “God, you taste so good.” “Wow, you’re the best kisser ever.” “Oh yeah, keep licking my tongue with yours.” In addition to being utterly nerdy, these observations are redundant. Speak with your flesh, not your words. +E. THE GENIUS MASSAGE (for information purposes only) +I hesitate to mention the following piece of the SEDUCTION module, but I’d hate to see you let such a magic opportunity pass you by: If you should be lucky enough to find yourself massaging the girl’s neck and shoulders, you have found a short cut to Second Base. The great thing about a massage is that it makes a girl feel safe (relaxed and appreciative of your role in the relaxation) at the same time it makes her completely vulnerable to your advances. Your hands are all over her! Once you’re even moderately certain that she wants to play around a bit, you’re virtually free to cop a feel of those fun fluffies bobbing around on her chest (i.e. boobies). It’s smooth sailing from there. BUT since this set of circumstances rarely happens on a date between people older than 17, you probably won’t get to try this. Which sucks, because I have, and it’s awesome. +3\. On The Bed, and Other Furniture +Goddamn, you’re kidding a girl! Believe it or not, you are already in the FOREPLAY stage. (Nerd Glossary: foreplay (n); the playing around before the sex; a necessary component to ensuring sex, the absence of which may lead to the absence of sex.) Can you believe it? You’re sustaining First Base with an actual woman! And as any baseball fan knows, the only reason a runner visits first is on his way home. What? You don’t watch baseball? What a fucking nerd. But hey, you’re doing great, I take it back. +A. SECOND BASE (EXTENDED MAKE-OUT) +I know what you want to ask: “When is the right time to get a handful of boob?” It’s hard to say, but I can safely assure you that you WILL get to fondle boobs. There are no guarantees in life, but in my experience, any girl who will French kiss you for more than twenty minutes is looking forward to letting off the steam you’ve built inside her. (That’s another euphemism for having sex.) Second Base, or the exploration of the chest, is solidly in Part 3 of the SEDUCTION plan; only rarely does one find himself playing with tits (above or below the blouse) and not face the eventual opportunity to take off the girl’s pants as well. (This frustrating anomaly is common among teenagers, but How-To article is on a less legal website.) +It’s vital that you continue to be patient. I know Mr. HotHead is ready to pop out and say hello, but the moment you get ahead of yourself is the moment you destroy the environment of safety that you worked so hard to create. One common occurrence is that a girl will let you feel her up through the bra but then gently push your hands away when you try to get UNDER the bra. Do not be discouraged. Continue to tunnel under, always at a slow, unthreatening pace. You won’t get better at it, but SHE will get hornier, and she’ll change her mind. Her nipples are hard, and she wants to do something about it without having to stop kissing you. BE ON THE LOOKOUT for the “Dry Hump Window;” once she’s sitting on your lap, grinding against your hard cock through both your pants, then you’ve found another shortcut, and this one is much more likely than the Genius Massage shortcut. Do your best to get her into position, because it’s very simple to remove her shirt and bra. Don’t force it, but watch for it. (A similar situation is when you lie on top of her and grind between her legs. This is a lot less presumptuous than you might think.) +B. GETTING NAKED +When it’s time to go from Making Out to Getting Naked, you have three options (see next). Before you start any of the three, make sure you’ve collected the following components like those gold coins in “The Legend of Zelda.” They are: 1) Her shirt open or removed. 2) Her hands tugging at your skin (shoulders, back, arms). 3) Enough kissing to make her want more; pay close attention to body language to find the cut-off point. 4) Her legs open with you grinding her crotch with yours. +Above all else, be on the look out for her to take off YOUR clothes. Everything stated up to this point is academic dribble once the girl starts coming on to you. This doesn’t mean you don’t still have work to do, but it does mean you have less signs to wait for before you start undressing her. +How to undress her? Again, TAKE YOUR TIME. The bra clasp is not that difficult, especially for someone who plays six hours a day of online Doom. Go slow, don’t get nervous. The main point is to avoid pinching her skin or giving her any friction burns. (Save those for latter… grrrr.) Now I know what Penthouse told you -- it’s fun to tease a girl, and she’ll enjoy it. That’s a lie. Once she’s ready to get her pussy rubbed, you need to pull those panties off with haste. Once you’re naked, it’s all a matter of sticking it in. +(IMPORTANT NOTE: Don’t forget the condoms. Did I say this already? At your place, have several on hand. At her place, ask if she has protection. If she doesn’t, excuse yourself while you slip your pants on and go back out to your car. If you’re done your job right, she won’t mind at all. Don’t bother to apologize… just hurry!) +OPTION 1: THE COUCH -- Stay on the couch if you like the girl being on top. She definitely likes it on top, because she can aim your cock at her G-spot. (If you want to hit it for her, go Google the subject.) Also, you can stretch out with either one on top, missionary style, provided the couch is long enough. +OPTION 2: COUCH-TO-FLOOR -- If she’s too horny to make it to the bedroom, oblige her. Put her on her back beside the couch, then slip inside her. Down on the floor, you’ll have a lot more room to roll around and switch who’s on top. Be careful not to crush her, especially if you’re an overweight nerd as most are. Hey, don’t worry about your weight now… you’re fucking an actual girl! (Avoid doggie-style for now. We’ll get to that in Part 4.) +OPTION 3: COUCH-TO-BED -- It’s best to get her on the bed, but there’s a devious drawback to immediately moving the action to the bedroom: You increase the odds that you’ll only get to have sex one time. Why? Well Stevie, because you’re a lifelong masturbator, and that means you’ll come quickly the first time. On the couch or the floor, your premature ejaculation is actual a great time to transition to the bedroom and continue to fuck until she gets hers. But in the bedroom, you may inadvertently give the impression that you’re done. She’ll be pissed, and she may even get up and put on her bathrobe. That would suck. In a nutshell, feel free to move straight to the bed if you can hold your climax until she’s had her first one. +C. THE ART OF COMING +Oh nerd, my nerd, we both know you’re single greatest fear. You can’t help wondering if you’ll come before she does, leaving her dissatisfied and wondering if she made a mistake by letting you fuck her. This is where all the other advice comes into play. Have you made her feel safe? Have you listened to her inane chatter? If you have, she’s more likely to believe you want her to orgasm, and she’ll give your wiener a second chance to drill the hole. Don’t be nervous -- just stay classy, be forthcoming, and have fun. If you have to put on a second replacement condom, do it quickly, then get back in the ring. +4\. The Wow Level +Look at you now, thumping a girl’s love pocket at the end of a beautiful date in which you barely spilled any marinara on the only tie you own. Now you have a story to tell your nerd friends, but could there possibly be another level you could take this thing to? Maybe she doesn’t have to believe you were a one-night stand with average kissing technique and a larger penis than she’d first imagined. No, maybe you’re the boy who will give her the freedom to fulfill her most wanton, slutty, orgasmic desires, maybe for more than one night. What can we say -- you really DID make her feel appreciated and safe throughout the evening, even when you were ejaculating inside her. Perhaps a second round of naughtiness is in order… or even more? +A. CONTINUE TO COMMUNICATE +Keep up the good work sending and receiving signals with your date. Tell her you’d love to have sex again, if she’s up for it. She’s a chick, so of course she is, and she’ll be impressed that you’re still such a goddamn gentleman. Once you’re touching her body again, switch from verbal communication back to body language. +B. FIND OUT WHAT SHE WANTS +Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen… either with your hands or your ears. If she responds well when you pinch her nipples, that means you need to keep paying attention to her breasts. Even when she asks what you want, try to figure out what she wants to hear, and say that. (I know it’s dishonest, but she really just wants another orgasm, so give her one.) Don’t ever try any of that kinky shit without finding out whether it’s okay or not. And that doesn’t mean you can just ask her out of the clear black sky, “Hey, you like anal?” Keep making her feel safe with questions like, “So what do you want to do next?” or even, “I’m game for any position you need.” +C. LEARN THE BASICS, THEN GO BEYOND +What do nerds do better than anyone? They become obsessed with one subject and become an expert in it. The time has come for you to become an expert on the female sexual process. You MUST BELIEVE that no man within a fifty-mile radius knows more about how to suck a clitoris, or how to sustain a girl’s multiple orgasms. I mean, all you have to do is type “female orgasm” in the web browser’s search window to find out what you need to do. Think of this successful date as a field test to find out what works and what doesn’t. (Just because a webpage says a certain technique is sure-fire doesn’t mean you keep trying it even when you aren’t seeing any results from it.) IF YOU PLAY YOUR CARDS RIGHT, you could be having sloppy sweat-dripping sex for hours and hours. Don’t forget to give your dick a rest and just finger or eat her when you need to. She won’t mind, trust me. +D. KEEP SOME THINGS TO YOURSELF, YOU TWISTED GEEK +It may seem as though you’ve finally found someone you can share everything with, simply because you’re having so much good sex in one night, but that illusion is deadly. You, my nerdy friend, do not think like the rest of society, and that means some of the sex fantasies going on in your head are a little… well, creepy. When in doubt, stay silent. Just because she says she likes anal sex doesn’t mean you can offer your own ass up for her strap-on. It can be very tricky figuring out what will turn OFF a girl, even though so many of them are turned ON by the same things. Like I said… if it’s something you’ve hidden from the world for years, it won’t hurt to keep it hidden a bit longer. +E. DON’T RUN OFF +What the fuck? You scheduled time at your place to watch “Die Hard” with some buddies when you got home from the date? What a dumbass. Once you finish having sex with the girl, stick around and hold her until she falls asleep, then stay in the bed and fall asleep yourself. You want a second date, don’t you??? Then don’t ask why, nerd, just do it. +Conclusion +I can’t believe you’ve come so far in such a short period of time. Yes, I said “come,” now stop giggling. Deep down in your heart of hearts, you’re still a big nerd. And deep down, so is that business-guy with the perfect hair. Hey, who doesn’t like a good game of X-Box shoot-’em-up every once in a while? But there’s no reason you should let your nerdy pursuits stand in the way of dating and sex. If you follow each step in this process, you’ll greatly increase your odds of “getting some.” You may even be less of a hopeless loser in lots of other social contexts. We can only hope! +Write and tell me how the date went, okay? Glad I could help." +672,A New Sensual Ritual For Our Times,ErnstBlofeld,How To,2004-10-27,2004-10-27,2022-01-04 08:25:18,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-new-sensual-ritual-for-our-times,A new Goddess pussy worship.,"['Hot Tub', 'Inside Pussy', 'Massage Table', 'Pussy', 'Pussy Lips', 'Shaving Cream', 'Table Bed', 'Underarm Hair']",3.52,"These are the instructions for a new type of sexual goddess worship which was created by a married couple who happen to be massage therapists and Yoga practitioners. To facilitate this ritual you will need three adults – either a male and two females or three females. One of the females is to be the goddess and she will receive the pleasure. +This ritual although spiritual and holistic in nature should not be confused with Tantra. Today the concept of Tantra is abused by the greedy – Tantra is not all about sex and the sacred nature of Tantra has now been lost because of prostitutes calling their scam by a different name. This technique is about sex and pleasure but it is also a celebration of the sensual female spirit and her God given genitalia. +First have the female who is going to be the goddess not shave her arm pits or pubic region for about 2 weeks or as long as she wants. This is in order to sufficiently grow the pubic and underarm hair. I know this might sound culturally strange to many – but there is a reason for this as will be explained later. +The space where the ritual is to take place is very important. +Have a private quite room or well walled off back patio set aside – it must have access to either a very large tub or outdoor hot tub capable of holding three people. A massage table or a bed also needs to be in the area. +Candles, special music, incense, wind chimes, sparkling grape juice, champagne, sweet Rhine wine, a bong with the best shit – filled with water or Southern Comfort, bowls of fruit or anything that will make the area more exotic and sensual is also recommended. +Her favorite soap or liquid bath gel. +Disposable douche or a disposable Fleet enema – sold at drug stores. +A Jolly Rancher candy – your favorite flavor – cherry is best! +You will need a plastic cover/sheet or nice towel to cover the massage table or bed. +A bowl of warm water with a bit of rose, violet, lavender, or orange blossom water added. +Her favorite female oriented shaving cream. +A brand new razor – disposable and the best one you can buy – don't skimp! +Her favorite massage oil – warmed. +Honey +Some mashed up mango or papaya pulp. +Condensed milk. +THE RITUAL: +All enter the space and give thanks for all the beauty in the world and the universe. Praise the Devine and the positive and be happy with love and positive lust. Undress. A group hug that melts into a group make out session. Savory the moment and worship each other with kisses to the mouth and neck. +Gently escort the goddess to the whirling hot tub. Submerge her there and both of you hold her and float her with love. Have her float there with her eyes closed as both of you lovingly hold her in safety and love. Get wet – get very wet. Bathe her all over with her favorite soaps – don't let her do anything! Both of you are her slaves – she is the princess, the goddess! Spoil her. +Pay close attention to her breasts, belly button, underarms, asshole. Lather her pussy and wash it with the luxurious suds. Shampoo her hair if she so desires. Rinse her with water – baptize her soul into a new life of sensuality. Use the douche or enema to clean the inside of her pussy. Wash her asshole well. +Take her out and give her a vigorous rub down with a thick warm towel. Dry her body well all over. +Place her on the covered massage table or bed. Both of you kiss her. Take the Jolly Rancher candy and unwrap it and gently insert it into her pussy. Don't put it in all the way deep – just enough inserted in case you need to take it out. Let it melt inside her pussy because of the heat that she radiates – let it mingle with her pussy juices – creating a mélange of flavors. +Now take the water and wet her armpits – lather up with the shaving cream and very lovingly and safe shave off her underarm hair. Both of you can do one armpit each. This shaving is symbolic of letting go of negativity and clutter. Visualize the shaved hair as the negative being purged from the body. Shave her armpit smooth. When shaven kiss the armpits – tickle it with your tongues. Smell the fragrance of the soap or shaving cream. +Do the same for the pubic area - wet it with water and apply the shaving cream – tickle her – make a loving game out of it – very carefully shave off the hair around her pussy region. Leave a little patch above or shave it all off. Again, symbolize the shaving as a goodbye to the stagnant, the negative, and that not wanted. Open up the atmosphere for the pussy worship to come. +Now begin the 20 finger (that means 2 people massaging the goddess at the same time) massage – Give her a full body massage concentrating on all parts – back and front, taking as much time as she wants for her pampering. It should be sensual but not sexual – yet! Make sure the oil is warm. +Now, when she is lovingly massaged for as long as she wants – have her lay on her back. Spread her legs and begin the worshipping. Apply the mashed fruit all round her pussy lips even putting a little bit inside. Pour honey on her pussy lips and clit and also pour some condensed milk on her pussy lips. +Part her moist and sticky pussy lips and both of you- at the same time or taking turns proceed to lovingly eat her out – licking her pussy and clit and sucking out the delicious syrup of the Jolly Rancher and the rest that is in her pussy. Do this as many times as she wants – how ever long as she desires. Taste the delicious nature of her pussy drippings. Make her have orgasm after orgasm – as many as she wants. Stick her favorite dildo or vibrator up her asshole as you both finger and eat her out at the same time. When she can't take it anymore or when she starts to fall asleep from the sheer relaxation – wash her pussy again of all the stick stuff. You might want to guide her to the hot tub or you might want to douche her again. Very gently mind you. +Bring her to her bed. Tuck her in. Give her a drink of warm milk with honey, some cinnamon and some nutmeg. Feed it to her. Kiss her forehead. Tell her you both love her. Give her a Valerian root pill to further relax her. Stay with her – holding her lovingly like 2 parents to their beautiful adult goddess daughter. Hum to her – hum her to sleep as she drifts off to a blissful sleep with many pleasant dreams till she wakes up refreshed and incredible the following morning!" +673,A Night with the Wife and Her Strap On,Mowgli53,How To,2021-10-22,2021-10-22,2022-01-04 08:25:19,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-night-with-the-wife-and-her-strap-on,Getting pegged by the wife.,"['Anal', 'Anal Sex', 'Husband', 'Role Reversal', 'Strap-On', 'Toys', 'Wife']",4.51,"A night with the wife and her strap-on. +My wife has a debilitating physical problem so I have to time it for her good days. Usually I can tell if she is feeling good enough to fuck me so I prep myself and ask her if she thinks she can. When she can, it is great. We have perfected the right height and angle for her to attack my ass and she seems to hang in there for quite a while. +We have many positions but the best for her is missionary, her standing, Me on my back with legs over my head at the edge of the bed or massage table. She stands at my ass, holding my legs up and drives me crazy. This gives her great access to my dick and balls for playing with them. And for me to play with her tits and caresses. I have the hardest and longest climaxes in missionary position. The angle to my prostate can be if-fie but I have made adjustments to get her on target. I love the doggie position the best for a flat out hard fucking and we have a bench for me to kneel on and her to stand behind me. Her standing works the best for hip action and good ass driving for both positions. She is not a Dom. She fucks me for my pleasure. She gets only the satisfaction of knowing she can satisfy me. +Do yourself a favor. If you plan to or are using a strap-on, Have your mate put on the harness and dong and measure from the floor to the base of the dong. Then get into your position, let's say doggie and have her measure from the floor to your asshole. Think about the angle needed to hit your prostate and figure that into the height. So now figure the difference and that is what you need for a bench, footstool, bed, saw horse dungeon gear, or whatever. This makes it easier for her and much more enjoyable for you. If it is for a group then you need to figure the lowest and provide boosters for the rest. Why do it unless you are getting the most for your fuck. We found that on something more stable than a bed is best. A bed moves around too much and it is hard to make adjustments for angle and stability for good movement. Pick your equipment for good performance, not looks. +Now, on with the night and fucking my brains out. +As I said earlier, if I see that it is possible for me to get fucked then I ask early enough that she knows to save herself and me to start to cleanse myself. For myself, I am usually completely nude. My wife will wear anything to be comfortable, like a pair of my boxer-briefs (spandex) very sexy on her, and a tee shirt or not. Fully clothed as in jeans and blouse or tee shirt. This would be like her taking me at will sort of play. +So now I'm naked and she is in my underwear and no top. Her strap-on harness is on and no dong present. Tits are swaying with her movement. I've set up the bench for doggie position. Our many dildos, All by Doc Johnson, Vac U Loc, are laid out and have been cleaned of the preservative powder. I use a lube shooter (Look it up) to place lube into my ass and lube my asshole. She will add more when needed. I pick which dildo to start with, usually a (7 inch perfect)( that is the name ) and push it onto the holder and lube it up. I get into the doggie position and she stands behind me and starts to push it in. If I have done my prep work correctly, then she enters pretty easy. She takes her time and slowly enters me all the way in and pauses to allow me to get use to it. Now she starts some slow movement. Pulling it almost all the way out and then pushing it all the way in again. When I give her the okay, she begins the real fucking. She has learned what I like and goes right at it. +She grabs my hips and starts to fuck my ass like she owns it. I throw in words of encouragement like,"" Fuck that ass."" "" Aahh fuck yeah."" "" Faster."" ""Aahh shit"" "" Give it to me."" This does seem to have a effect on her motion. She has literally wore my ass out and it be hard to walk for a few hours or to sit comfortably the next day. At some point I have her change the dildo to a larger one. The James Dean is the next bigger one and has some reach. The head is smaller and tapers up to a 2 inch diameter but it stands out for the pure driving fuck and fills me pretty good. I can literally get dizzy from the thrusts. If I can stand it I'll have her move up to the Jeff Stryker. More than 9 inches and the girth is around 2 1/2 inches. +This one will make you walk funny. I have to yet have a prostate climax and shoot my load but have found myself weakened from pleasure and almost loose my stance and fall over. When I've been fucked out of my mind I reach in and start to rub my clit. I call it that because I find that the harder she fucks me the more it recedes into my nut sack which also shrinks and my balls pull up into my guts. (There is a medical term for that but I don't know it). I have been dripping cum from the prostate being stimulated and I use it to rub my clit until I cum. I have had some really intense climaxes that cause me to shoot for ever. On my back I have shot over my head and painted my whole chest with cum.

Or perhaps you were browsing through your local adult toy store or your favorite online shopping place and saw them. Maybe you’ve already purchased a set. Well, if you are confused about which ones to buy and how to use them, look no further. Having just a bit of experience in this area myself, and having shared that information privately with friends, it has been suggested that I share what knowledge I have to a greater audience. Now, I certainly don’t have the only handle on this, but what I can give to you is basic knowledge and understanding, safety tips, and some ideas about how to get the most out of these delicious little treasures. Ready? Okay! +The most important decision regarding nipple clamps is choosing the pair that is right for you and your partner. There are many to choose from, including that old faithful – the clothespin. If you’ve looked at the various types of nipple clamps, you’ve probably noticed everything from how pretty some are to how painful others look. So, let’s discuss the basic styles, shall we? +The most inexpensive are clamps are commonly known as alligator clamps. For those who were around during the 60s and 70s, these look just like roach clips did back then. These are relative small, so women with larger nipples will have difficulty using them. Also, they do not, as a rule, have a latex or rubber tip which will make them very painful to use. I cannot recommend these for use. Most people are influenced by the cheaper cost, but these make a very poor investment. +The next clamp I would like to discuss is called a tweezer clamp. They are called that because, well, that’s what they look like. These are very graceful looking and aesthetically pleasing. The delicate look appeals to most women. They just look feminine. The tips are coated with latex or rubber, so they provide a certain measure of comfort. They have a tiny ring at the closed end that slides towards the end that encloses the nipple that allows for increased or decreased tension. These clamps do not provide an intense amount of tension and are probably the best to begin with. The cost is actually quite reasonable as well. +Clamps that have a blunt end and a screw in the middle are sometimes known as bull nosed clamps. The tips are covered in latex or rubber, providing the same comfort as the tweezer clamps. The screw in the middle of the clamp often confuses those who are unfamiliar with clamps. The screw is used to increase or decrease the tension applied to the nipple. Tightening the screw actually decreases the tension by opening the clamp wider. This allows the clamp to be applied with a minimal amount of tension for the novice or the woman who doesn’t like the intense feeling of being clamped immediately. Once the clamps are placed, the screw can be slowly released, causing the clamp to close and increasing the tension. By doing this slowly, you can determine the exact amount of tension that is comfortable and enjoyable. +Clover clamps are a little more difficult to explain in appearance. They appear to be very complicated, but they are rather simple. They are sometimes also known as Japanese clamps, as they are featured in many Japanese style porn pictures. They have a smaller point that meets the nipple and those points are rubberized. Clover clamps are not adjustable and provide for the maximum amount of intensity. It is advised that these be used on women who are used to having their nipples clamped or who desire a strong feeling of tension. Also, these clamps are heavier than their counterparts, which may increase or decrease one’s pleasure depending on how much tension they find pleasurable. Clover clamps can be pricey, and while I recommend these highly, I would suggest waiting until experience has been gained before making this purchase. +Although not a true clamp, there are what looks to be vises that can be rather popular. These are not latex or rubber covered, and basically give the nipple a crushing feel. They are fully adjustable, so they can be a fun alternative. +The household clothespin has long been a favorite for clamping nipples. They are inexpensive and one can purchase them without having others know what they are to be used for. If you want to use clothespins, that’s great; however, it is best to stick with the wooden ones. Plastic clothespins have a strong bite to them and are difficult to adjust. To use wooden clothespins be certain to loosen the tension before applying. You can do this by forcing the closed tips farther apart than normal, stretching the spring that joins the two wooden pieces together You might want to try this to varying degrees so as to have multiple clothespins with differing tensions. This way, you can build up from least intensive to most intensive. +Now, you’ve decided on the type of clamp you want and perhaps have even purchased it. You’re looking at these strange creatures and then your partner’s nipples, and saying, “Now what the hell do I do?” Not to worry. I won’t have you standing there looking like you are inexperience in this, would I? Of course not! +The first step is preparing your lady to be clamped. Trust me, this is quite enjoyable for both of you. Sucking, licking, pinching, soft biting, among other things that you know your lady likes is really all you need do. Pay lots of attention to those wonderful nubs of pleasurable flesh! Get them stiff and hard and ready for play. When her nipples are standing straight up and she’s begging for more attention, gently and slowly apply the clamp. If you or your partner is new to this, be certain the clamp is open to its fullest. Gently apply the clamp onto the nipple. Watch your partner’s reaction carefully as you release the clamp. If she yells and tells you to take if off now, do so! If she sighs, whimpers, or begs for more, you know you can continue. +Take your time and try not to rush things. Teasing your partner and going slow will make this experience far more enjoyable for both of you! Once the clamps are applied, kiss her, stroke her body, lavish attention on her. The clamps provide the feeling of your fingers gently pressing the nipples, so keep teasing other parts of her body with your lips, tongue, and hands. Then, gently and slowly, increase the tension of the clamps. Remember, no sudden moves here! Easy does it and slow going. Allow your partner to get used to the feeling. And watch her expression and listen to her. If she appears to be in pain or discomfort, ask her if she is okay. Your partner must communicate with you throughout the process. She must let you know what feels good and what hurts. +If you increase the tension and she says that you’ve reached a point that hurts, do not be discouraged. Simply release the pressure back to what she finds pleasurable. The idea behind the clamps is to imitate the same feeling as your fingers pinching her nipples or your teeth biting down. Each woman is individual with this. Some women can only take a slight amount of pressure. Other women like the feeling of having their nipples almost crushed. And most women are somewhere in between. The majority of fun behind nipple clamps is finding that zone your lady loves. +Okay, now you’ve got the clamps on, and you’ve adjusted the tension to what she likes. She’s writhing in pleasure on the bed, floor, or wherever you are. She’s begging you to do something. But what do you do? Here is where you must use your imagination! Now, I can’t tell you what your partner will like, but I can tell you what I’ve enjoyed and perhaps you can take it from there. Sound fair? +Almost all nipple clamps are attached with a chain. The most obvious fun is to tug or pull on the chain, increasing the pressure on her nipples. Try pulling up towards her chin, then down towards her tummy. Try pulling straight out from her body. See how she reacts and look at how delicious her breasts are in these different positions. Take the chain and place it between her teeth and ask her to pull her head back. This will cause the clamps to pull her breasts upwards, and increase the tension. Another good factor about this is that she can control the amount of pressure or tension, giving you some indication of what she finds pleasurable. +Nipple clamps can be great fun during intercourse as well. While in the missionary position have either you or your partner take the chain between your teeth. If you have the chain in your teeth, each thrust you make will send ripping sensations of pleasure through her nipples. If she keeps the chain between her teeth, you have the added pleasure of watching her tease and please herself while fucking her at the same time. And for those ladies who happen to be reading this: pulling and shaking the chain while it is between your teeth is a terrific way to tease your partner and add to his pleasure at watching you! +If you and your partner prefer having her on her hands and knees as you fuck her from behind, clamps on her nipples will provide a very different sensation. The weight of the clamps will provide a bit more intensity. Also, with every thrust, the chain will sway back and forth again adding to the increased sensation. For the truly adventurous, have your partner lay the upper half of her body down against the mattress. This causes the clamps to press even more tightly against the nipples and also holds them in an upright position, increasing the pressure tremendously. If your partner’s nipples are very sensitive, I do not advise doing this – it can be incredible painful for some women. +Now, some people think that the initial clamping is what causes pain. Nope, not really. Others think it is the tugging and pulling that causes pain. Wrong again. The worse pain can be when the clamps are removed. If done incorrectly, the pain can be excruciating. But would I let you do it the incorrect way? Heck no! I want both you and your partner to have fun with this! +The premise behind nipple clamps is that when the clamps are applied they cut off the circulation of blood to the nipple. This does cause a little pain, yes. However, when the clamps are removed, the blood rushes back into the nipple, and this is where the true pain comes from. At the same time, if your partner has experienced an orgasm, her nipples may be more sensitive than normal. So here is what you do. Before you remove the first clamp, have your partner take a deep breath. As you slowly release the clamp, have her exhale very S L O W L Y! Once the clamp is free of the nipple, suck and lick the now very tender flesh. Be gentle, be very gentle. The pain she feels will still be there, but as soon as your tongue and lips start working on her nipple, the pain will go away almost immediately. Repeat the procedure for her other nipple. +It is not uncommon for nipples to remain a bit more sensitive after the clamps are removed. This can last anywhere from a few hours to a day. If the nipples are clamped a few days in a row, this increased sensitivity might last several days. The increased sensitivity might be very mild or might be pronounced. Each woman is individual and only she can tell you what she feels. +Now, I would not be doing right by you all if I didn’t warn of safety hazards, would I? It is important to keep in mind that clamping does cut off blood to the nipple. Cutting off blood to any part of the body for long lengths of time is not a good thing. Therefore, it is advisable that you only clamp nipples for 10 minutes. This is a general rule of thumb, and can certainly change from person to person. Some women can go longer than 10 minutes, but it is advisable to begin with a 10 minute limit. A woman might tell you she can go longer, and this could be caused by a very temporary numbing effect that some women experience. This happens to me. When my nipples are clamped, they begin to feel numb unless the chain is pulled or tugged. Therefore it is up to my partner to determine when the clamps come off as my sense of judgment is distorted. As you continue in this, your own sense of judgment will make you feel more comfortable as to how long to leave the clamps on. +Watch for signs of distress. If the nipple begins to swell or turn color, remove it. This could be normal, but it is best to err on the side of caution until you and your partner are more experienced. If you partner at any time says she is uncomfortable or that the clamps hurt, remove them. If the clamps have been on for any period of time, remove them in the manner described above or you will cause further pain. +The wonderful thing about women is that they are all built just slightly different from each other. Variety is such a wonderful thing, is it not? And not all nipples are created equal. This might be true of your partner as well. Here are some tips on the not so normal nipple conflicts that some, including myself, have encountered and ways to overcome those obstacles. +For the woman with very large nipples, finding clamps that open wide enough can be a problem. The tweezer style would be best suited for this type of woman. The tension is not as strong as other clamps, but she might find others a tougher fit. +There are women whose nipples don’t stay hard for long. Another complication is the woman with inverted nipples. (Inverted nipples are those fun little creatures who are a bit shy about coming out to play – I know, I have one!) Confronted with this can seen daunting, but it need not be. One trick is, rather than clamping the nipple directly, try gently pulling the nipple from the body and applying the clamp just behind it. Another trick is to clamp the nipple sideways instead of from the front. Playing around with different techniques will help you work out what is best for you and your partner. +Now, that wasn’t very bad, was it? I hope not! And I hope this provided some value to you in understanding the wonderful world of nipple clamping. Most people worry they are not doing it right. I can understand that, however, the best part of this – as with sex in general – is the experimentation and discovery. You and your partner may not get nipple clamping figured out until after several tries. That’s okay. As long as you have fun during the process, who cares about the rest? It’s all about providing mutual pleasure for you and your partner, right? Right! +So go ahead and buy those clamps. Light the candles, get the incense burning, put on that wonderful music, and have a glass of wine. Then let the fun begin! And yes, I do welcome comments and questions. If you’ve tried my suggestions and would like to give feedback on your experience, I would love to hear from you! But above all, I sincerely hope that both you and your partner gain some bit of fun and pleasure from this!

The author assumes absolutely no responsibility or liability resulting from employment of any of the thoughts expressed herein._ +* +After spanking, nipple torment is probably the most widely practiced S &M activity. It runs the gamut from licking and sucking to biting, pinching, clamps, needles, and fire play. People into BDSM are aware of the commonly available implements for nipple work, even if they haven't personally used all of them. This is not about the generic 'put clamps on, do it, take clamps off.' Rather, here are some idea generators for the advanced practitioner. +These ideas are applicable to the male as well as the female sub. Female nipples are generally more tender than male, but with consistent work can be toughened up considerably. Proceed slowly and increase the intensity over time. +Simple clamping and the use of candle wax are omitted due to their basic nature, and readily available information of their use. +Rather than just putting clamps on, combine several of these disciplines if you desire a grateful, attentive sub. +Probably most people's first exposure to the joys and tears of nipple torment began with simple pinching with the fingertips. Beyond simply pinching and twisting, there are a number of variations for advanced play. Instead of the 'standard' top-and-bottom fingertip pinch, try pinching on the sides of the nipple. +Then there are the fingernails: pinching and twisting/tweaking with the fingernails. Having a sub do this to themselves can yield delightfully sore nipples after a couple of days. Have them do a series of 10 -25 pinches/tweaks at specific intervals throughout the day, perhaps before getting out of bed in the morning, before getting dressed, at mealtimes, bedtime, before a sex session, whenever they use the bathroom, when opening an Email letter from an on-line Master/Mistress, when sending an Email reply, etc. +These can be done on bare skin, or through clothing. Clothing becomes abrasive when the buds are worked in this way. +A couple of days of this training, and even clothing rubbing across those nipples will remind your sub of the discipline. +After the base/body of the nipple is properly sore, fingernail pinches to the very tips will put your sub up on their tiptoes, and extract a satisfying moan. +The feeling and angle can be enhanced by ordering the sub to cross their arms to inflict them, left hand to right nipple, right hand to left. +Other fingernail possibilities include: pinching and pulling straight out, or up, down, to the inside, or outside, or fingernails to the very tips and dragging the nails off the flesh. +Clamps come in two basic varieties, those that crush and those that bite. Most of the commercial ones have adjustment screws so they can be tightened for greater effect. Alligator clamps without the rubber tips represent the 'biters', while most everything else at the 'toy store' are crushers. +Some novel approaches for using these milder clamps include placing them sideways on the nipple, or yanking them off [6-10 repetitions of this, for instance, with clover clamps, will leave them sore and attentive. The human body likes its pain to be balanced, so trick it by putting a clamp from different pairs on each side, or only installing one clamp. Another effective technique is to put a large ring to slide freely on the connector chain. Tie a snap hook to one end of a piece of rope. Shorten the rope so that with a very small loop tied in the other end to slip over a toe or spike heel, it prevents the sub's legs from being straightened without considerable tension to the nipples. This is very useful for keeping a sub's legs apart for penetration. The rope can be shortened enough so that the legs cannot be straightened without actually pulling the clamps off. A whip or cane across the thighs can encourage the sub to complete the discipline. +A different method to keep the nipples under tension and keep the legs up and spread is to obtain two wide nylon dog collars sized to fit the sub's legs tightly just above the knees. Then install fine chain or rope to each clamp individually and hook them to the collars' D-rings. Very effective. The thigh- bands can be worn out, underneath a skirt or dress. For additional training/discipline, genital piercings or clamps could also be attached to the D-rings. This creates a very efficient hobble restraint while keeping the legs spreadable. +For the true pain-slut, consider multiple temporary piercings. These are done with sterilized needles. Several skewering each nipple will get your sub's undivided attention. +A quick poke to the nipple with needles improves focus. Consider constructing a 'nipple-paddle' with a cluster of needles sized to accommodate the nipple and areola. +Touching the buds with either a lighted cigarette or cigar can produce delightful first degree burns - reddened skin, like a sun-burn. +Proper after-care is essential after either using needles or heat to this thin-skinned area. Keep the skin in prime condition to avoid embarrassing trips to medical facilities. +Paddling worked nipples with the bristle side of a stiff-bristled brush also will keep them tender. 'Brushing' them in multiple directions works well too. +Stiff brushes, like toilet brushes, with the handles removed can be placed inside bra cups for long-term work. Note, this can also be effective in panties also. +Extended discipline can be achieved by simple cardboard disks sized to cover the breast in a bra cup. A pattern of carpet tacks poked through, then another disk of cardboard glued on to hold the tack heads in place, will give long- term attention to the mammaries. +Some paddle or whip work on clamped breasts or the tack disks will ratchet up the intensity +For some non-traditional ideas, the hardware store offers a number of delightful possibilities. Miniature 'vise-grip' locking pliers will get your sub's attention. The weight of these is a free bonus. One could use regular pliers, but they require continuous hand pressure and are impractical for any timed endurance discipline. Consider metal spring clamps. These resemble giant clip clothespins, and come in sizes from about an inch up to 8 inches in length. Their strength will bring even the most dedicated pain-slut to their knees. Auto parts stores are a source for large alligator clips as well as replacement battery-charger clamps. The latter give a vicious bite. +Any of these can be bought in pairs, and connected with fine chain [also a hardware store item] easily. +Office supply stores carry a variety of sizes of the black metal 'bulldog' paper binder clips. The smaller ones can actually produce more bite than the bigger ones. For the truly sadistic, small holes can be drilled through these clamps to guide pins or needles for temporary piercings to the nipple/areola. Once applied and pierced like this, the clamps are essentially 'pinned' on your sub. Wicked indeed! +Any chained pair of clamps can be readily converted into a bit-gag so the sub can participate in their own discipline. Detach the chain from one clamp. Slip a length of plastic pipe or rubber hose over the chain, and reattach. Adjust chain length so the sub can firmly hold the gag, straining the nipples, with their head raised. Begin with two pillows under the head, then remove them one at a time so the sub can experience even more tension. The gag not only induces drooling, but wonderful sound effects too. Once again, a cane or whip across the thighs or other targets of opportunity will 'help' the sub to lower their head. +Standard skirt hangers present unique possibilities. The rubber-jawed clamps can be slid on their metal rod to bring the nipples close together or spread wide to the side. Once positioned, the sub's arms can be moved to increase their distress. The hanger hook can be roped for multi-directional tension as well. +The intensity of all clamps can be increased by having the sub in a bra. The under-cup elastic band is especially useful for positioning clamps to twist or pinch the nipples even more. +Clamps should be removed periodically. Not only is this medically responsible, but increases the sub's distress as blood circulation returns. Each time you reclamp, use different clamps. After several repetitions, even 'mild' clamps will be very effective. The day after an intense session of nipple work, applying clamps again, even for a few minutes, will keep those buds sore and tender. +Hopefully this short article will encourage Masters and Mistresses to think in terms of advanced nipple work.

After reading it, she said I should put in on Literotica, so here it is. If you have any more ideas, by all means, say so in a comment! We'll all benefit. + **Breast play** : +-Don't go straight for her breasts as soon as you start kissing; there's no need to rush things, and she'll probably enjoy it more if you take your time. If you haven't had a breastable (yes, I just made that word up) relationship with her for very long, go especially slowly; see how she reacts each time you move your hand a centimeter closer to her breasts, and be sure to get explicit permission before you actually touch them for the first time. If you already have an established sexual relationship, you won't need to be so careful, but grabbing boobs right away still tends to kill the mood. Kiss, put your hands on her back, on her shoulders, on her waist; if she's happily going along with that, then she could well be up for breast play next. +-It's worth noting that everything has its exceptions; if you've had a sexual relationship for a while, playfully touching her breasts out of the blue and then kissing her might be a fun way to start a lighthearted exchange of affection and bodily fluids. I wouldn't try it on a second date, though. +-Like with most other forms of sexual touch, I suggest starting breast play very lightly, barely touching the skin with the fingertips. It arouses that area of the body without giving too much stimulation too quickly, and it's a great way to tease and make her want more. It's also a very soft touch, which many people find sensuous and reassuring. +-When you start using your whole hands on her breasts, be gentle but firm. Massaging/kneading motions combined with squeezing usually works well. (It works well for fondling her butt, too.) If you're doing this from behind, you can easily kiss her neck and ears, and hold your body close to hers. +-All of this so far can be done while she's wearing a bra, but of course it will be even more intimate and fun if she's topless. Do you and she both want that? If you (individually) do and she's not already taking it off by herself, try touching the strap and giving her a questioning look (or the side of it, if it's a strapless bra). That's a good way to ask permission without risking violating her personal space or breaking the mood. +-I hope removing brassieres is easier for you than it is for me, because I still have trouble with that. If you have trouble unhooking it, don't make a big deal of it. Remember, she's probably had trouble with it, herself. This is a great time to share a laugh and realize that you're both only human; it can really help to take the pressure off of both of you. +-It's probably best to stimulate her entire breasts with rubbing, squeezing, and maybe lightly running your fingernails over her skin, before you focus on her nipples specifically. When you do stimulate her nipples, you'll probably want to start gently, as with everything else. Brush your fingers lightly over them, rub them, pinch very lightly, then maybe not so lightly. Some people even like having them twisted; see how she reacts to the pinching before you try that. Yes, some women like a more direct approach and will be happy if you go straight for the pinching, but until she makes it clear to you, I suggest starting light and sensuous. +-Using your mouth is a wonderful part of breast play. Kiss every square inch of her breasts, maybe with licking or even nibbling, before you get to her nipples; try maybe kissing/licking your way around them and gradually homing in. When you do, start with the aureole; aureoles are sensitive and sexy, and overlooked far too often. Try circling its border with the tip of your tongue a few times, then lick and kiss all around her nipple; then kiss, suck, and lick the nipple itself (especially if it's hard). Sucking long and hard can be very pleasurable for many women (and men), and a lot of people even like having them bitten a little bit. +-Remember, there are two breasts, and they both deserve your attention. You can use your hand on one while using your mouth on the other and then switch, or use both hands for both breasts. Just make sure that both breasts get equal attention overall. +-I've heard that some (large-breasted) women like having their breasts pushed together and both nipples sucked at the same time; I haven't tried this, but it sounds like fun, doesn't it? +-Go back and forth between using your mouth and just your hands. This should help keep it going for as long as she wants without her getting too used to the stimulation either way. +-If you have breasts of your own, then I imagine that rubbing them against hers must be all kinds of heavenly. Sadly, I can't be certain. +-Some women's breasts are more sensitive than others', and some women have more sensitive nipples than others do. Be gentle at first and work your way up to whatever you're both comfortable (and pleasurable) with. + **Cunnilingus** : +-One way to see if she's up for having her genitals touched is to fondle her ass and or her stomach and slowly move your hand closer to her crotch, and watch her reaction as you get closer. +-When you touch her genitals, start by stroking and rubbing from the outside of her pants/skirt; you can also try touching/grinding her crotch with your leg, although some people find that invasive. If she likes that and you want to bypass her clothes, one way to find out if she's up for it is to touch the top of her waistband or slip only your fingertips inside, and watch her face for her reaction. +-When you remove her pants/skirt, you might leave her underwear in place at first to give her time to get used to losing her clothes (especially if nudity is new for your relationship). Making underpants-removal a separate step is also just a good way to prolong the fun; her choice of undergarments also can be a fun and/or sexy conversation piece. If you leave her underwear in place at first, kissing her and licking her through the fabric can help arouse you both and give her a taste of what's next (and it's fun!). This can also help you get used to her scent, which can be strong in an aroused woman. It's also a great lead-in for pulling her underwear down with your teeth, if that's your thing. +-If she's wearing a skirt, consider just removing her underwear (if she's wearing any) and making love to her with your mouth with the skirt just pulled up. Hot. +-It can be very sexy to make a show of smelling her pussy, both with and without underwear, and telling her how good she smells. Some women are insecure about the way they smell (which is sad), and playing on that insecurity in a positive way can also help put her at ease—in addition to giving you an excuse to smell her pussy. +-When you finally start touching her with your mouth, start slowly around her genitals and gradually kiss/lick/touch/tease your way inward. Spend plenty of time doing these things to her thighs, her hips, her stomach, and her mons (and back to her mouth) before you move on to her actual vulva. The joint between her leg and her outer labia can be very sensitive to kissing and licking, too. +-When you get to her genitals, still keep the kissing and licking light and slow at first, and slowly increase the length of time and the pressure; starting cunnilingus with lots of teasing is fun and arousing. +-Pubic hair is awesome, and it's everyone's right to wear it how she pleases. Longer hair tends to build up more of her natural pheromones, while the labia are often more sensitive without hair on them. While it shouldn't hurt to make a suggestion or a request (phrased as such), remember that it's ultimately up to her; many women have been made to feel ashamed of their hair, and that's a crime that shouldn't be repeated. Appreciate the natural beauty of her full-length hair, the deliberate beauty of her groomed hair, and the ease of cunnilingus when she goes completely bare. +-Even if she's already aroused to the point that her vulva is opening on its own, don't pass up her outer labia; they're sensitive and beautiful and very deserving of attention. Kiss, lick, suck, and maybe even nibble. Try running your tongue over their very edges, and up and down their outer and inner sides. This could be a good transition to pleasuring her inner labia, too. +-Stimulation from your hands or inserting a finger into her vagina during cunnilingus is pretty much standard, and for good reason. There are lots of things you can do: stimulate the G-area, thumb her clitoris, move your finger in and out, etc. Be sure to make a show of licking your finger clean; if she's gay or bi, maybe offer to share. +-Surprise, surprise—cunnilingus is almost never portrayed accurately in pornography; unless you're still teasing, you're going to use more than the very tip of your tongue, and your face will be right up against her (you lucky bastard). You'll inevitably get your chin and your nose wet in the process, but since you're intentionally wetting your tongue this way, you shouldn't have a problem with that. Use your lips and all of your tongue to please her. If you don't, you'll have a very difficult time pleasing her at all. +-Inserting your tongue into her vagina is lots of fun for both of you; go slowly, pushing a little of your tongue in, then sliding out again, and then back in a little deeper, and then out again, and on and on. Move your tongue around while it's inside her; touch everywhere you can, and just wiggle it back and forth. Try making circles with your tongue that trace all around inside her. Curl your tongue back toward your face while it's still inside her. Lick with the back of your tongue. A popular tactic is to write letters of the alphabet or entire love sonnets with your tongue (this works for her clitoris, too). There are lots of things to do with your tongue, and I'm not going to pretend this is anywhere near all of them. Experiment and find out what you both like. +-Avoid the temptation to go for her clitoris too early, too hard, or too exclusively. Since it's a very sensitive part of the body, it can get irritated easily, or just go numb; I learned this the hard way (sorry, Pam). Get her really aroused first, and then start in—I usually make the clit the last place I target. Go gently at first, teasing around her clitoris before you actually touch it. When you do touch it, just do so now and then while you continue pleasuring everything else, and gradually put more and more attention on it. As always, start lightly, then lick and suck harder and faster (biting in any way is not recommended here). It could be a good idea to start when her clitoral hood is still over her clitoris itself, since the hood can help keep the stimulation from being too intense right away while her body gets used to it. Her hood might pull back on its own when she's aroused, or you might pull it back yourself with your fingers, or you might just leave it over her clitoris, especially if hers is especially sensitive. Don't forget all the other wonderful parts of her body once you're there. +-The clitoris is far more than just the exposed part that's under the hood. Never forget this. Behind the visible part, the clitoral shaft runs back under the hood (you can feel it under the hood when it's engorged) and deep into her body, where it branches out into two clitoral legs. You can stimulate the shaft by stroking/kissing/licking it through her hood, and massage the clitoral legs through the inside of her vagina. This less-direct stimulation will be highly pleasurable for any woman, and can be perfect for those whose clits are too sensitive for direct stimulation. Love the entire clit, not just the tip of the iceberg. +-Use your hands during cunnilingus, too. Fingers can stroke the outside or inside, or be thrust in and out, or just stay inside to give her a feeling of fullness or something to contract around. (Just make sure you have clean hands and tidy, non-sharp nails.) Push her legs open with your hands, spread her labia with your fingers while you put your mouth to its best possible use, or stroke her G-area with one or more fingers while you use your mouth on her clitoris. Reach up and touch her stomach and breasts with one hand while giving cunnilingus. Holding a woman's hand while giving her oral is a wonderful experience. +-A lovely technique is to stroke her G-area with the fingers of one hand while using the other to gently push down on the outside of her body just above her pubic bone, making the G-area stimulation especially intense. The popular name for this is Heaven's Back Door. +-Mix it up. Go back to running your tongue between her labia majora and minora after you've been sucking on her clitoris, for example, and switch off between her clitoris and inside her vagina. Just keep it varied. This keeps it exciting, and can prolong the arousal and make any eventual orgasms stronger. She'll let you know when she's getting close to coming and wants you to stay where you are. +-If you can tell when she's getting close to coming, you might like to ease up on her just a little and let it subside. Do that a few times during the cunnilingus session, and when you finally do make her come, it will be incredibly intense for her. She'll be frustrated as hell at first, but the finish will probably make her forgive you. Yes, it can take a long time, but hey, who doesn't love making a woman moan for an hour? +-After a woman has had all the cunnilingus she wants (she might have to give you cues like tugging on your hair or saying out loud that she's had all she can take), be sure to show her how much you enjoyed what you just did. Lick your lips, smile, suck on your fingers, tell her how beautiful she is, etc. Kiss every part of her body again (paying particular attention to her breasts is good) as you move back up her body for a cuddle. Kissing your way back up her body is sexy and fun. +-Kissing a woman's genitals after you've just brought her to orgasm can be fun for you both. She'll be extremely sensitive, so even a little kiss can give her extra tremors. (""I have to stop now? Okay."" *kiss* ""Oh, did you enjoy that?"" *kiss* Etc.) Just don't do it so many times that it irritates her (physically or mentally). Two or three times are probably pretty safe. +-Not all women like the taste of their own sexual fluids, especially if they're not into women, so she might ask you to wash your face between giving her oral and kissing her again. Go ahead and try for the mouth-to-mouth kiss when you're both finished (it's romantic!), but don't feel bad if she's not up for it. +-If a woman is about to ejaculate, it feels like she has to urinate. If you think ejaculation could come into play (you plan on stimulating her G-area, for example), you may want to make sure everyone visits the bathroom before you get going so you can both be sure what it is she's feeling. +-Some women like butt stimulation, too. Squeeze and massage her ass. Trace your fingertip(s) over or between her bare cheeks. Touch her anus with just a fingertip. If she enjoys one thing, experiment one step farther (but not necessarily right away). And since our culture still has a lot of weird feelings about the butt, talk about it! +-If a woman has genital piercings, they can add stimulation when you please her orally, the same way lip piercings add sensation in kissing. Tongue piercings generally aren't helpful for cunnilingus; if they're close enough to the front of the tongue to be felt on her genitals, they're close enough to wreck your teeth. An extra word of caution: tongue and lip piercings do not go well with genital piercings. Yes, they can get caught on each other! If she's got rings or studs in her labia or clitoral hood, replace your mouth piercings with retainers before you reach her genitals. And hey, if that's the only time you put the retainers in, you can make a show of it, and make her all hot and bothered. +-If she's giving you oral, show how much you appreciate it by stroking her hair, encouraging her (""Oh God, that feels good,"" etc.), and generally making her feel appreciated. +-Lube can be helpful for cunnilingus if she's stressed or not fully aroused yet, or if she's just naturally not a very wet person. +-She doesn't have to be lying back for you to give her oral. She can stand and you can kneel, she could sit down with her butt on the edge of her seat, she can get on all fours and have you pleasure her from behind, etc. Get creative. +-Toys are good toys are good toys are good toys are good toys are good. +-If she is lying on her back, it can be helpful to put a pillow under her butt or her lower back. This will give you easier access to her genitals and take some strain off her back. +-There's nothing wrong with giving a woman oral while she's on her period. Unless she's bleeding heavily, you'll probably barely even taste the blood; some people even like it. Just put down a towel, and have fun. +-Period or not, use dental dams and gloves if you don't know each other very well or if there's any other risk factor that she might have an STI. STIs don't make you a bad person, but they should be taken seriously. Lubing up her side of the dam will help her enjoy it more; flavored lube on your side will make it more enjoyable, since dams generally taste like latex. +-The tongue does get tired. Tongue-strengthening exercises that I've learned: point the tip of your tongue toward the back of your mouth as hard as you can for as long as you can; stick your tongue out as long and hard as you can, to both sides as well as straight forward; stick it out and make hard circles all around in both directions, like you're trying to lick your lips with your back taste buds; and, of course, just practice giving oral. Some of these you shouldn't do at work or on the bus, so try them in the shower or while you're going to sleep. + **Sex in general** : +-Make sure you and your partner are both comfortable with what you're doing before you decide to try for the next, more intimate act. Even when sex is a possibility or expectation, still take your time with the kissing and not-so-sexual touching; it will show your partner that you're actually enjoying it, and it will underline that going from kissing to full-on sex isn't a Point A to Point B progression. Enjoy everything for what it is, and enjoy her for who she is. +-Remember, if she's not up for having a certain part of her body touched or for having a particular kind of sex, it doesn't mean she doesn't like you; sometimes people just don't feel like it. Reassure her that it's all right that she doesn't want to give oral or whatever, and ask if you can both continue what you've already been doing; she'll probably be happy to keep with it. +-Again, there's no need to hurry. Starting slow and going slow with every part of sex helps everyone feel relaxed and comfortable with everything that's being done, and it helps everyone enjoy every aspect instead of rushing to get to one particular act. It will help you both relax, get used to the sensations, feel ready for what may come next, and not feel pressured to have an orgasm or do anything else. Taking your time also seems to make for a longer buildup of orgasm (if orgasm is your intention), and ultimately a more satisfying climax if and when the time comes. On top of that, going slowly just gives you more time to touch and kiss her entire body. Everyone wins! +-When you're kissing her (on her mouth and everywhere else), use your hands. Stroke her cheek or her hair, cradle her neck, gently grip her upper arms, lightly massage her back, hold her hand, and so on. Maybe you could even squeeze her butt, too. +-Orgasm is great, but remember that it's not the goal. The goal is to give her pleasure, and more importantly, to make her feel loved. Don't feel bad if she doesn't come, especially if you're still getting used to sex with each other; if she feels bad for not coming, let her know that there's nothing wrong with it and that it doesn't make any difference in how much you like her. No apologies are necessary from anyone. Not only can sex be gratifying without orgasm, but it's freeing and relaxing when orgasm isn't expected and doesn't feel like an obligation. (Ironically, this relaxation and comfort with sex actually make orgasm more likely. The stress of trying to come for your partner just counteracts your own efforts.) +-When you engage in breast play, cunnilingus, or any type of sexual exchange, kiss and touch _everywhere_. Don't just focus on the breasts, vulva and ass. Kiss her stomach, her neck, her arms, her eyelids, her feet, etc. Touch everywhere while kissing. Examples: stroke her calf and Achilles tendon while you kiss the sole of her foot, run a finger down her spine while you kiss her mouth, and touch behind her knees while you kiss your way down to her pussy. +-Make eye contact frequently while you're kissing and doing everything else. This helps create and maintain the emotional and intellectual connection. It shows that you value her for who she is, and not just for sex—although eyes can also be very expressive of lust and your appreciation for her body. Many women love it when you look them in the eye while you're performing cunnilingus—just look upward while your mouth is busy, and see how hot it makes her. +-Compliment her frequently and sincerely. Complimenting her body is important because a lot of people (not just women!) are self-conscious about their bodies, especially during sexual acts. Let her know that you feel special for being allowed to see and touch while she's naked. Tell her what parts of her body you particularly love and why, and not just the obvious parts. Do you like the firmness of her arms? That freckle on her hip? The way she grooms her pubic hair? Also tell her what you like about the parts of her personality that show during the act(s): enthusiasm, tenderness, sense of humor, etc. Make love to her with your words. +-It helps your partner to be comfortable with her own body when you're comfortable with yours. If you don't act like your body is something to hide or be nervous about, then she will be more likely to feel the same about hers. The human body is beautiful. Love it, love your own, love hers. +-If she's particularly shy or insecure about her body, go ahead and turn the lights off. Besides, when the visual element of sex is minimized, it becomes more about the touching, the feeling, the sounds, the smells, and it's generally just really hot. Blindfolds are good for this, too. +-At all times, let her know she is cared for. Hold her close, touch her softly, and tell her you love her (if you do). Show that you want to be with her, and not just during sex. +-Of course, you don't always have to be gentle and tender. Hard, rough, high-tempo sex is a hell of a lot of fun, and it can still have a loving tone to it, even if it's a wilder, more energetic love. Nothing wrong with that! +-Make love to her entire body, with your entire body. You're more than a mouth and hands. Rub your body against hers, put your arms around her, wrap your legs around hers. Show her all the things you can do that a vibrator can't. +-What feels good to you? If you enjoy having something done to you, she will most likely enjoy it, too. This is especially true if you're female(-bodied) yourself, but men can borrow techniques from touching, kissing, and even fellatio, too. At the very least, it will be a good place to start, and you can both take it from there. +-If it seems like something will be pleasurable for her, it probably will be, just like when you give a massage. Just be thorough, and stick with each type of touching, kissing, rubbing, etc. for a while before you move on to the next one. Give each touch, each motion, time to be appreciated. (This is one part that I tend to have trouble with, personally.) You might have to put a good idea on hold for a little while, but switching away from the current one after only a minute will make it feel rushed and will give less time for her to really appreciate and enjoy it. Pay attention to her ongoing reactions to get an idea of when to move on to the next technique, and what she might like next. +-Sex is funny—admit it and embrace it. Joking around and laughing about the inevitable awkwardness that is inherent to sex will help everyone realize that no one has sex quite as perfectly as we like to imagine, and that we shouldn't feel ashamed for that. It also helps relax everyone and keep them from feeling too pressured to perform. Laughter is just another way to have fun with someone you care about, which is really the point. So go ahead—bump your teeth together when you kiss, trip when you take off your pants, and headbutt each other by accident. + **Communication!** +-Start by talking about some of the things you both like. You don't have to make detailed lists, but a few generals (""I like lots of breast play,"" ""How do you feel about having your hands held back?"", ""Just so you know, my clitoris is extremely sensitive,"" etc.) should be helpful. And you don't have to be academic and detached about it. Just keep the information going while you get into your groove. +-Everyone is a little different sexually, so ask often how she's feeling. Encourage her to give direct suggestions in addition to answering your questions. A lot of people are hesitant to give make specific requests because they're afraid it will hurt the other person's feelings if they say, ""Not so hard, and a little higher, please."" Make it clear to her and to yourself that if she asks for something different, it make it better for everyone. Listening to her doesn't make you a bad lover; it makes you a _great_ lover, and helps you get even better. +-All this talking can be done without breaking the mood, too. You can use honestly sexy tones in your voices and phrase yourselves to be conducive to the mood (""How's _this?_ Mmmmm, do you _like_ that?"" etc.). She can gently move your hand to where she wants it (""Mmm, right here""), or say, ""I love it when you do that"" or ""Would you try another finger?"" without making things awkward. To encourage her to give you feedback (last paragraph), maybe something like ""I want to make you feel amazing, and I want you to help me do it"" would work for you. +-Also, pay attention to her non-verbal cues. How is she moving? How much is she moving? What kind of sounds is she making? Is she pushing her body against yours or just lying there? Is she holding your head right where it is, or is she trying to guide you to somewhere else? Keep in mind, though, a lot of women suddenly stop making noise when they're approaching orgasm, and stopping right then to ask how she's doing will disrupt it. This makes it especially important to listen to everything she's doing all along the way. +-Sometimes comfort levels change. Someone might try something once and decide she doesn't like it, or change her mind about a sex act just before you get to it, or even during; it doesn't happen often, but it might. If you think your partner might not be comfortable with something she's already consented to (or even suggested), just check in and ask how she's feeling. If she's changed her mind, respect that, and let her know that you do. +*** +Of course, all of this, especially knowing when she's aroused and consenting, will become easier and more streamlined the more you get to know someone and the more you have sex with each other. This kind of goes without saying, but it's good to keep in mind. +Remember, everyone is different. No one will fit all of these guidelines exactly. The main thing to remember is to be comfortable with yourself, with her, and with each other. As long as you truly care about each other and communicate, you should be able to fully please each other, physically and emotionally, and have a good time doing it. +Don't forget that sex is _fun_. It's easy to get caught up in pleasing her, but don't worry so much that it becomes a chore. Relax and make love because you love her, but also because you enjoy doing it; she'll be able to feel it when you're having a good time, and that will help her enjoy it all the more." +677,Not All Blowjobs Are The Same!,PeterR,How To,2009-05-12,2009-05-12,2022-01-04 08:36:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/not-all-blowjobs-are-the-same,A descriptive narrative of the 'perfect' blowjob.,"['Blowjob', 'Dream', 'Oral']",3.58,"I should start by saying that I'm far from being considered a connoisseur, but I've had enough blowjobs that I can differentiate and even sort them into categories. +All blowjobs are good, but some are better than others! +Basic blowjob - given before sex mainly to get a guy hard. This is good, but if the resulting sex is blasé, so will be the blowjob. My experience here is that after you've you're your reciprocating; your soldier may need additional attention. The sex will be ok, because your pecker will harden, but not like it was just after leaving her warm mouth. +Blowjob as a part of 69 – this can be great, but it's difficult to concentrate while munching on your partners snatch. I've had few of this variety, but one I seem to recall is that my partner had a strange odor and I couldn't wait to right myself to just do her doggie style. There was nothing wrong, but certainly not what I'd consider magnificent. +Blowjob coupled with a hand job – this can be great if it's split 60-40 or better. I've had much experience here, but if your partner is not into it this can be a dog, and again you may want to opt for the lay. Now your partner maybe a great lay, but needs some work giving blowjobs. The fact that she tried is a good place to start and teach her to be magnificent. +Blowjob and she spits – this is great, but how much did she really care if she spits your precious fluid. Now if she spits it all over her boobs this can be great, and if she rubs it all over them, WOW. My experience has been that she will not spit, but is usually unable to hold the fluid so it will trickle from her mouth. This can be sexy or a turn-off. +Blowjob and she swallows – Best yet, especially if she comment on how great you tasted and can't wait for the next session. I can only dream when I get the next one of these, because this blowjob rocks. +Blowjobs, in your dream – Priceless, for it usually will leave me wet by morning. This reoccurring dream has me getting a full-body massage. The masseuse is a girl in her mid to late 20s; and she is dressed in a one piece white gown. She has a nametag, inscribed Monique over her left boob. There is no cleavage evident, but one can imagine some formidable rack behind the gown. I should explain that even though this is a reoccurring dream, I've had all of it happen to me in segments, but too unfortunately that not at the same time. +When I get a massage, I usually leave my tidy whiteys on. Monique insists that her policy with me is to have me naked under the sheets. Reluctantly I remove my briefs and cover myself with the sheet. She begins to give me a full body massage with one important difference. She seems to spend an unusual amount of kneading my butt. Also, when heading towards my toes she brushes my boys ever so gently. Monique routinely massages my back, my arms and legs. Then she massages my inner thigh and cups the boys several times. After doing each thigh she has me turn over onto my back. By now my pecker is purring for attention. Playing the professional masseuse role she halves the sheet and strokes my pecker just to keep me interested. +This is where the fun begins. It is 4PM and she tolls me that I was her last customer. She claimed that it is getting hot in here. I agreed and she clicks the door shut and removes her gown, revealing the most beautiful pair of boobs one can imagine. Each nipple was the size of a number 2 pencil eraser. They felt hard to the touch and below she wore a thong that really is more like a decoration, because it did not hide much of her shaved pussy. She now removes the sheet entirely leaving me naked to her touch. My pecker is standing at attention and she lovingly kisses the head. +Monique then licks my organ from tip to bottom and took each of my boys into her mouth, giving them the exiting bath they've been waiting for. While entertaining my boys she gently massaged and stroked my pecker keeping me on the edge. I felt a small amount of precum which she eagerly swallowed. Now Monique licks the crown, covering the entire circumference. All the while my involvement is an occasional grab of those beautiful boobs and cupping and massaging her fabulous buttocks. She then licks the vein on the underside of my pecker for what seems like a full minute. I now am erect more than I ever remember. Monique cups my boys and gently squeezes them as she starts to bob up and down on my pecker. I am now getting close and she enters my butt with her middle finger and expertly massages my prostate as I shoot streams of jism into her waiting mouth. +Monique swallows every morsel and tells me that there is no fee beyond the massage for she cannot wait for our next session to taste my lemon & lime flavor. Monique tells me that she can get herself off after snacking on some lemon & lime pudding. It's a turn on that she enjoys when I don't use her for my monthly massage. +This is my favorite dream; afterwards the day kind goes downhill." +678,Not Seventeen (English Language Haiku),jthserra,How To,2020-12-24,2020-12-24,2022-01-04 08:36:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/not-seventeen-english-language-haiku,Bringing back something on haiku I posted several years ago.,"['Haiku', 'How To Write Poetry', 'Poem', 'Poet', 'Poetry', 'Poetry Forms', 'Writing Poetry']",4.89,"Seventeen . . . seventeen . . . seventeen: the words echo in the halls striking fear in the hearts of haiku students and sensei alike. Poets are assailed by well meaning fans and critics chanting the haiku mantra: ""five- seven-five"". With every poem, haiku poets are presented with the opportunity (or cursed with the responsibility) to explain their art form. Of the many conceptions and misconceptions about haiku, the one most often discussed is the syllable count. +Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary (1980), defines haiku as: ""an unrhymed Japanese verse form of 3 lines containing 5,7, and 5 syllables respectively."" Wow, that is like trying to use a tiny bonsai as an example of a giant redwood tree. It took R.H. Blyth four volumes to describe haiku and two more to discuss its history. I will touch briefly on two elements outlined in the Webster definition: the syllable count and the amount of lines in haiku. +Jack Kerouac, who helped popularize haiku in America with his book The Dharma Bums (1958), provided a much different definition outlining the vast differences in Western Language and Japanese. In Scattered Poems (1970), a posthumous collection of Kerouac's poems, he stated: ""A 'Western Haiku' need not concern itself with seventeen syllables since Western Languages cannot adapt themselves to the fluid syllabillic Japanese. I propose that the 'Western Haiku' simply say a lot in three short lines in any Western Language."" While this approach to haiku may not address all the elements of haiku, Kerouac's haiku are widely anthologized in haiku collections. +A big fat flake of snow Falling all alone (Jack Kerouac) +In Haiku in English (1967) Harold G. Henderson states: ""As a general rule a classical Japanese haiku: 1. consists of 17 Japanese syllables (5-7-5) 2. contains at least some reference to nature (other than human nature) 3. refers to a particular event (i.e., not a generalization) 4. presents that event as happening now- not in the past."" He continues: ""Japanese haiku 'syllables' used for the 5-7-5 count are not English syllables. They are rather units of duration."" The vast difference between the Japanese and English languages creates the confusion regarding the haiku 'syllables'. While English words are broken into syllables, the Japanese words are broken into onji (sound- symbols). Japanese onji are much shorter than English syllables (i.e. the single syllable English word ""ran"" breaks down into 2 Japanese onji, and the word ""rain"" breaks into 3 onji). Cor van den Heuvel, in the preface to The haiku Anthology, Expanded Edition (1999), details how this difference affects English Language haiku: ""It is now known that about 12 - not 17 - syllables in English are equivalent in length to the 17 onji (sound- symbols) of the Japanese haiku."" +The comparison of English syllables to Japanese onji is not exact, in fact, Cor van den Heuvel describes haiku as: ""... a short poem recording the essence of a moment keenly perceived in which nature is linked to human nature. A haiku can be anywhere from a few to 17 syllables, rarely more."" And what dictates how many syllables you use? Simply the nature and language of your poem. In a poem about his brother, who was killed in The Vietnam War, Nicholas Virgilio wrote: +Lily: out of the water . . . out of itself. (Nicholas Virgilio) +He used eleven syllables in this beautiful haiku, which won a first place in the American Haiku and Japan Air Lines haiku contest in 1963 (out of over 41,000 English Language haiku submitted). Another haiku: ""In a Station of the Metro"" by Ezra Pound, considered by some to be the best English Language haiku ever written, diverts from 17 syllables: +The apparition of these faces in the crowd; Petals on a wet, black bough. (Ezra Pound) +Nineteen syllables! But, also notice that there are only two lines in this haiku. Many Japanese haiku were written as one-line poems (written vertically). These poems when typeset horizontally are sometimes presented in the one-line form, other times they are presented in a three-line form. Generally, while the three-line form is the most widely selected, one-line, two-line and even four-line forms are acceptable, provided the language and content of the poem support the line breaks. Another example of a successful departure from a three line haiku is Takayangi Shigenobu's haiku, which is basically a concrete haiku: +in a mountain range's creases hear ing clear ly the bur ied ear s (Takayangi Shigenobu) +Considering the language differences between Japanese and English, Webster's definition of haiku is incomplete at best. English Language haiku often diverges greatly from the syllable and line form described in the dictionary. In 1987, Cor van den Heuvel wrote in The New York Times Book Review: ""A haiku is not just a pretty picture in three lines of 5-7-5 syllables each. In fact, most haiku in English are not written in 5-7-5 syllables at all--many are not even written in three lines. What distinguishes a haiku is concision, perception and awareness--not a set number of syllables."" +Seventeen . . . seventeen . . . seventeen: the words fade into the distance. As outlined above, haiku is more than syllable and line counts, much more. Seasonal content (kigo), cutting words (kireji), and ""nowness"" are other very important elements of haiku. They will be discussed is future articles, in the meantime I close with perhaps the most famous, and most widely translated haiku: +the old pond a frog jumps in the sound of water Matsuo Basho (1686) +- +Bibliography: +1\.

A few suggestions for writers. 2. More of the same, & thanks.","['Reading Story', 'Spell Checker', 'Word']",4.37,"OK, I'm not a professional writer. I'm not an editor or anyone else with a recognized expertise. I'm a reader. I fell in love with the written word when I was eight years old and I've been in love with it ever since. I've read thousands of books, from just about every type you could name. Fiction and non-fiction, horror, science fiction, science fantasy and science fact, romance, history, religion, mystery, newspapers, magazines, the ingredients on the back of a soda can, the user's manual that came with my computer; if it's written I'll probably read it. But some things really turn me off and, if they're enough of a disruption to the flow, I'll stop reading your story and move on to something else. +My biggest pet peeve is that some people do not use words correctly. I'm not referring to slang here, I'm well aware of slang and use it myself. There are a lot of words in the English language that sound the same when spoken, but destroy a written sentence. Words like ""there, their, and they're"" are a prime example. Each is a valid word in its own right and, when heard or spoken, most people will recognize the context. In print though, they cause the reader (me) to sometimes have to stop and try to figure out just what is being said. I don't like to have to decipher what I'm reading; I want to enjoy the time I'm giving to your work. There are a lot more of these things than you would guess. A few are: your and you're; since, sense, and cents; it's and its; two, to, and too; grown and groan; throne and thrown. Some writers get so sloppy with this that I make a mental note to bypass everything else they submit. It's a shame, too, because some of these people have good imaginations and set up some very interesting situations. I just can't get past this one problem and I move on. +Most other people who are offering helpful advice will tell you to let someone else read it before you submit your work. This is sound advice. If that person gets confused while trying to read it then probably most other people will, too. Keep in mind that the person you choose should be someone who will give unbiased criticism, not comments based on personal preferences. I submitted a story that went over very well here, but my friend didn't like it. She said she didn't enjoy it all. After talking it through, I found that she doesn't like incest stories and that colored her assessment of everything about the story I had given her to read for me. +You might find it helpful to just let it sit for a day or two, then read it again yourself before you turn it over to someone else. You'll likely find that your first draft has missing words, misspellings due to misplaced keystrokes, extra words where you've typed the same thing twice, and any number of other problems that you didn't notice the first time through. Believe me when I say that we'll notice them when we try to read your story. Use the spell checker, but don't stop there because it can only tell you that the words you've typed are spelled correctly. It can't tell you that those words are really the ones you want to use. If I say, ""My dog ran threw the neighborhood,"" my spell checker won't have a problem with it, but I should have said, ""My dog ran through the neighborhood."" My word processor also has a grammar checker, but some of the suggestions I get from it would change the meaning of what I've written, or alter the mood that I'm trying to set. Use your tools, but don't be a slave to them. +When in doubt, use a dictionary; I do. Find out if the words you use really mean what you think they mean. I've found that I sometimes completely miss the meaning of a word based on what it sounds like to me. Case in point: I once bought a video that had, on the box, the statement, ""not intended to appeal to the prurient."" I thought, prurient, pru, prudish, and decided that this must be something very erotic. It turns out that prurient is 'tending to incite lust' and that the statement was trying to warn me that the video doesn't do that. My own misconception cost me twenty bucks, yours might cost you an audience. +Sometimes I even use the thesaurus. I like the word 'gorgeous' and tend to use it a lot. If I'm reading over a story and see that I've used the same word to excess, I'll look it up to see if there are other ways to say the same thing. With gorgeous I find 'superb, sumptuous, and impressive', and I'm directed to also see 'beautiful and grand'. There are lots of terms that say exactly what I want to say without being stuck in a rut. I don't have to say that Tanya is gorgeous and that she has gorgeous hair and a gorgeous face and gorgeous breasts and gorgeous legs and on and on and on with the gorgeous. Spend a few bucks on a good one and it will have words that fit the type of writing that you find on Literotica. It will list alternatives for fuck, cunt, ass, and cock, and others that you'll want to use. Same thing applies to the dictionary. These are real words that real people use and they have real meanings. A good dictionary will list them, tell you what they mean, and give other forms where appropriate; plural, possessive, and so on. +If you're writing for your own pleasure, that's fine. I guess you know exactly what you mean when you write it. But if you're going to write for other people's pleasure as well, take the extra time to insure that they, too, know exactly what you mean when they read it. Let their judgment of your work be based on content and situation, instead of how difficult it is to figure out what's being said. I'll get off my soap box now and go look for a couple of good stories. I hope yours is one of them. + +" +680,Notes to Myself on Writing Erotica,J_Melquiades,How To,2017-01-18,2017-01-18,2022-01-04 08:37:00,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/notes-to-myself-on-writing-erotica,"I'd better, or else.","['Craft', 'Guide', 'How To', 'Humor']",4.44,"Implicitly, the root theme of all erotica is the human need to touch and be touched. We are primates. +Acts of sex are central to every erotica narrative (even in their absence), but they are not erotica's primary subject. +The primary subject is the _how_ and the _why_ of sexual behavior. The _what_ remains inanimate without them. +To remain dynamic, the _what_ needs to have a narrative function. Sexuality becomes an agent of transformation. The emotional entanglements, the multiple consequences, the ecstasy and the anguish of a sexual relationship substantially alter something within the main character. Loss and gain. For better or worse, life can't be lived as it was before. Sexual intimacy has shifted everything. +Begin the story with its first sentence, then never take a backward step. +Each successive sentence adds something that is immediately relevant to the narrative and previously unknown to the reader. +Invent continuously. Aim for the unexpected. Chopin! +If the story can appear to be continuously invented by the writer, it can be continuously discovered by the reader. +No prologues. Begin with a hook, a moment that leads inevitably to further action. Dramatize it, don't tell it. +Keep exposition short and scarce. Make the story come out in dialogue, action and setting. +Effective writing about sex cannot remain literal for long. Literal description leads to a whole lot of telling with no showing. It becomes exposition and reads like a punch list. +Effective writing is imagistic / aural, figurative. It works the senses. It invokes sense memory. +Find the metaphors that are appropriate to the story, and allow the reader to engage imaginatively with that imagery. Aim for the unexpected. +Generalities do not generate images. ""Perfect tits"" describes nothing. A writer of such a phrase assumes that each reader can fill in the blank with a personal ideal. Perfect tits = ______. (My own, unfortunately, seems to be a cartoon drawing.) It's about as absurd an expression as ""A#1 cock."" +To spark an image, a writer has to be specific. ""When she lay back, her breasts didn't splay. They was perfect."" +Sharpen your eye for the telling details. They make the story real. +Excise all but the telling details, and cite as few of them as possible. +Do not fear simplicity! It keeps you honest. +Eliminate the justifiers. ""She felt herself becoming dizzy,"" or ""She grew dizzy?"" The first sentence pulls away from the action, interposing perception; the second states the action, directly and succinctly, and makes room for the reader. More of the latter and less of the former makes a stronger story. +Justifiers situate the narrator between the reader and the story. Let them bow out graciously, but do eliminate them. +Rarely should a line of dialogue require an adjective. Convincing dialogue speaks for itself. +It's true: adjectives tend to drag. Prune them ruthlessly. +Needless repetition, needless to say, is your story's ticket to the abyss. It's a story killer, needless repetition, and that's all you need to say about it. +""She climbed the worn steps, gripping the sticky bannister and listening to the creaking wood beneath her feet, while eyeing the ominous shadows at the top of the staircase,"" or ""She climbed the worn steps, eyeing the darkness at the top?"" +Do not fear simplicity. +""Jane licked Joan's salty love pie,"" or ""Jane licked Joan's aquatic folds and tasted the sea?"" Hmm. Both at least refer to salt. The former might be praised for its pithiness (eh), and it pursues simplicity - but it's also opaque, and a tad crass. The latter trends artsy-fartsy, but it offers a suggestive image and invites the reader to associate with the story through sense memory (touch, the texture of aquatic folds, and taste, NaCl). +Moliere is reputed to have said that he knew when his work on a play was done, not when he had put everything into it, but when he could take nothing more away. Pursue simplicity. Stay honest. +Reread ""Cooper's Literary Offenses,"" by Mark Twain. More importantly, reread his follow-up, ""Fenimore Cooper's Further Literary Offenses: Cooper's Prose Style."" A great lesson in writing. +Never publish a first draft of anything, ever. +Never publish a second draft either. +Strive to entertain. +And, finally, for now, a small prayer. O lord, for the sake of better writing everywhere, please smite the word smirk from erotica's vocabulary. Unless muttered by a character who is soon to die painfully, or used with utter objectivity, let it be wiped from every page. Thank you. Amen." +681,The Numbers Game,PrincessErin,How To,2008-02-11,2008-02-11,2022-01-04 08:40:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-numbers-game-1,Earning easy points in the Survivor Contest.,['Contest'],4.0,"So I have always been obsessed with numbers. It is probably my obsessive- compulsive disorder but playing around with numbers has always been fun for me. This is my first year participating in the Literotica Survivor Contest and I want to share with everyone some easy suggestions for getting as many points as possible. I'm sure we could get into a discussion on the ethics of these suggestions but that is best left for another day. +Suggestions +#1 Put in a number for immunity. You might not win. You don't have to accept the immunity if you do win but it helps you out if there are 1-2 categories that you simple can't deal with. For me both the audio and illustrated poetry and story categories are out for me. Another big suggestion is to write stories that are between 750-1000 words. Why you ask? Well stories have to be at least 750 to be posted on Literotica and it's pretty easy to write a good story with a beginning, middle, and an end in under 1000 words. As another author said ""why write a 1500 word story when you can write two 750 word stories and get double the points."" +#2 Pick 10 easy categories that all have the same theme. I'm a woman and prefer the sappy romantic stories so I would pick Romance, Erotic Couplings, Mature, Incest/Taboo Lesbian Sex, Gay Male, Toys and Masturbating, First Time, Anal, and Fetish. All those categories can have ""romantic"" type stories in them. So if you write one story for each category you will have earned 30 points plus a 5-point bonus for filling 10 categories. +#3 Pick 10 not so easy categories that fall into the same theme. Pick a theme you are comfortable writing about. Maybe choose a character type, or location. You will earn 30 more points and 10 bonus points for a total of 75 points. +#4 Then I would suggest going on a poetry-writing spree. Walk around outside, have some sex, watch some porn, do something that you can write about. Poems can be short or long but don't write overly long poems. Remember there is no length requirement but if you write a bunch of 3 word poems you will probably be laughed at. You can only write 10 poems per category so if you fill up all the poetry categories with the maximum number you will have 48 points for a total of 123 points. +#5 Take a short break from writing. You should probably leave your computer and go mingle with real people. Getting up and changing your clothes and having a shower would also be a good thing. Now that you have taken a break you have a few options. You have 11 categories left to fill. If you choose to use and are lucky enough to win immunity then you have even less. Maybe pick 6 of the harder categories and challenge yourself to write one story per category for the next week. Rest on Sunday since that is a day of rest. Of course in filling up 6 more categories with one story each you have earned anther 18 points plus 15 bonus points for filling up 30 categories so your points total is now 156. +#6 So now you have 5 categories left. If you can fill those categories with stories go right ahead. If in December you are unlucky and have won no immunities you might need to write something for some of them but let's hope you're lucky. +#7 Now that you have maxed out as many points as possible go back to those 10 more favorite categories and write some chapter stories. Try for one a day for a week. That way you can write short stories (under 1000 words remember) and at the same time get used to writing longer stories for when November rolls around. If you do this for one month you will have earned another 24 points for a total of 180. +#7 Participate in the National Novel Writing Month Contest. All you have to do is write a 50000-word novel and if you are smart and split it up right you can either fill it in the novels category and earn 18 points for 7 chapters or fill up your favorite category and earn another 50 points. Either way you have earned between 198-230 points. +#8 You need to make sure you have at least 10 stories in every category. Go back and fill up those categories with stories. Ask around for suggestions if you are running out of ideas. This will earn you 5 extra points for each category for a total of 175 points. Adding together the points from before gives you a grand total of between 373-405 points. +So is 373-405 points enough to win? Maybe. Yes. No. Does it really matter though? If you follow through with these suggestions you will have spent a great year writing lots of stories and poems, which is the main goal of the Survivor, contest -- right?" +682,Numbers,rick_905,How To,2003-03-04,2003-03-04,2022-01-04 08:37:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/numbers,A game just about everyone can play.,"['Cock', 'Cock Stroke', 'Game Play', 'Number', 'Number Time', 'Stroke', 'Stroke Cock', 'Stroke Cum', 'Stroke Fingers', 'Stuck Hand']",,"Many people that read stories on this site no doubt end up getting turned on and end up having a sexual encounter of some type. Some people will be lucky and have someone around to help out and some will end up having to masturbate. +Masturbation is one of those things that everyone does (or just about everyone) but no one talks about. The chat lines on the internet are one way of talking about masturbation with out having to look the other person in the face. +I am one of those guys that does talk masturbation on the internet and shares my stories etc. with the other person. One of the things I have done is explain the game of “numbers” to people. +Numbers is a masturbation type game that I play and have told a few people over the last few years. +People would not masturbate if it were not enjoyable. Too much of a good thing tends to take the fun out of the activity. Variety is the spice of life and that saying holds true for masturbation. +You can get variety in masturbation by changing the location that you do it (in bed, in another room, in the shower, sitting on the toilet etc.). You can also get variety by changing the time of day that you do it (early morning orgasms on a full bladder are different). +I always figured the best way to get variety was to change the way that you do it. Females are lucky in that they have more then one way to do it. Most females would use their fingers but also have the option to use a vibrator, dildo, shower massager, water jet from a pool/spa/bath tub, humping a pillow. Guys for the most part are stuck with their hand. +Although guys are stuck with the hand there is different ways to stroke the hard cock. The first thing is they can do is go ""dry"" or use a ""lube"". I would be classified as a ""dry"" guy and never even knew for the longest time you could use a lube. I have tried using the lube and it is a lot of fun - different that is for sure, but you need the lube handy - not great when you are sitting in your car and in the mood, or at your desk at work. +The second way that you can change the stroke is the method in which you use your hand to stroke your cock. That is where the game of numbers comes in. +Over time I have developed a few ways of stroking myself. +The first way which I call the number 1 stroke is to take one finger and run it up and down the vein part of the cock - the same spot that a tongue would most likely go during a blow job if the female was just licking the cock and not taking the whole thing into her mouth. +The number 2 stroke is using 2 fingers to stroke the cock - actually one finger and one thumb. What I do is take the finger closest to my thumb and the thumb and make a circle with it. This circle then goes around my cock and I stroke it all up and down the shaft. It is sort of like lips going all up and down the shaft. +The number 3 stroke is using all fingers on my hand. What I do is grab my cock from the top and place all 4 fingers and thumb in the same direction as the cock and stroke that way. Using this stroke if I was to cum it would hit the palm of my hand and not spray all over the place. +The number 4 stroke is the traditional stroke that most guys show when joking around. Call it the fist if you like, make a fist and then relax the hand so the cock can slide up between all the fingers. If you were to cum during this stroke the cum would shoot out the top and land all over the place. +OK, time for the game of numbers. There are various ways of doing the game and I will explain 2 of them. +Method 1 - I would look at the clock (digital) at night time in bed and take the last number and do that stroke for the night. First problem is what do you do when there are only 4 strokes and 10 numbers that could be on the clock. I handled that in that I would come up with a special number 5 each time I masturbated. That could be wrapping a pillow around my cock and humping that, could be using a Kleenex right around the cock and then doing the stroke of the 2nd to last number in the time. That gets me up to 5 strokes. To get from 5 to 10 all I had to do was double the first 5. This was done by saying the first 5 were with my right hand and the 2nd 5 were with my left hand. Could also be done by saying the 1st 5 would be cleaned up with a Kleenex and the 2nd 5 would not be cleaned up and the cum would just stay on my cock/stomach until dry. +Method 2 - decide on the number of strokes that you need - 4 to 10 will work for this way - do not need 10. Then find someone to give you the number and a speed (slow, medium, fast) and then have the person change the number/speed every 10 seconds or so. +When the other person changes the stroke and the speed your hand moves to the new stroke. This works well in person, over the phone, or even in a chat room. +I hope everyone gets the idea and just maybe one or two people will even try it. Once you have the basics done there are all sorts of other number games you can come up with." +683,Nylon Edging,Nylonian,How To,2021-10-05,2021-10-05,2022-01-04 08:37:02,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/nylon-edging,A personal insight into nylon edging and technique.,"['Couple', 'Edging', 'Fetish', 'Masturbation', 'Nylon', 'Pantyhose', 'Partner', 'Stockings', 'Techniques']",4.52,"_""Embrace the allure and the hypnotic nature of our gossamer dream. From its softness to its electricity, let it feed your desire and further your passion. Deeper we go; entranced and willingly entrapped...""_ + **Preface** +The impetus of this exploration and sharing of personal insight is the distinct shortage of literature, erotica and guides diving deeply into the use hosiery (stockings, pantyhose, socks, tights etc.) and nylon gloves for achieving pleasure and to a further extent and extreme, its use in edging to further enhance release and pleasure. +Whilst this is by no means a comprehensive guide and results may vary, hopefully you can get more out of your nylon fetish and erotic experiences. +To us nylon fetishist, this is probably already a bit of a no-brainer but I hope that it can provide some insight in terms of ideas and techniques to try. To the uninitiated and curious readers, I hope by the end of this, I have provided a strong argument for nylon exploration and its use in edging (especially if you already actively edge with other aids and materials). +\--- + **The Allure & Theory** +From experience there are several distinction sensations you can get from nylon hosiery depending on the denier, quality, construction and stage of wear. From the smoothness of a pair of high quality Wolford Fatal 15s to the softness of a pair of affordable L'eggs Silken Mist pantyhose, from the slick glide of a pair of Falke Shelina stockings to the tantalizing buttery silkiness of Cecilia de Rafael Miss 20s; there's a myriad of nylon sensations waiting to be discovered! Furthermore, your nylons will change in characteristics after a couple of uses and washes. This can either make it softer, smoother, change its luster or a combination of the aforementioned. +I won't go too much into different brands, makes, types but the crux of our exploration is the feel and the sensations you can get with the material and for this there are four different attributes from experience (I'm sure you can break this down even further): degree of smoothness (this usually comes from the quality of the weave and construction), degree of softness (this is usually an effect of denier, generally the higher the denier, the softer the material), slickness/sheen and stretch. +In terms of the theory of why nylon hosiery is such an incredible material of edging? There are a few boons. Number one, the breath-ability of the fabric (especially 20 denier and below) means that your hands and/or legs won't get as sweaty during long sessions vs. if you were to encase them with latex, leather, satin or other materials. Number two, personally speaking as someone with various fetishes and have tried different materials for edging, I have found nylon to be the most rewarding and addicting in terms of sensation (it just has a feel that drives me insane). Number three, with hosiery coming back into fashion, there are a lot of triggers for arousal in day-to-day life and this can be distracting if you're not disciplined but it can also be a driver during your edging sessions and as you become more experienced in harnessing your arousal and senses, the better your climax will be. +Such is the intensity of my passion and fetish for nylons, I am getting hard just thinking of the variety of sensations you can achieve with different nylons and different techniques throughout the various stages of its life- cycle! It'll leave you chasing the sensation cycle and drive you deeper into the fetish! +\--- + **Mentality** +To those who are not familiar with edging, it is the practice of denying ones ejaculation and stopping at the ""edge"" of an orgasm to enhance the final orgasm upon ejaculation (release). Edging can be done alone or with a partner. +Essentially, you stop stimulation as close as the edge as possible, wait until your arousal subsides and resume. If you're experienced with edging, you can achieve a state that is close to an ejaculating orgasm without ejaculating. This is without a doubt a plus in many ways as it can extend the amount of pleasure you're receiving, help you achieve a more intense climax and improve your stamina during sex. +Using stockings, pantyhose and/or nylon gloves in various combinations on various parts of your genitals can provide waves of pleasure as the sensual fabric stimulates your sensitive parts and take you to the edge. +Perhaps the most important and sexiest aspect of this practice is the personal denial of ejaculation no matter how frustrating it may be initially. Trust me, the end result is more than worth it! If you're doing this with a partner, it's an erotic way of providing control to them (empowering them with your final release) and a way of building communication and trust in terms of sexual play. Your partner will appreciate the control and if done properly, they will gain better understanding of the peaks and valleys of your pleasure cycle; resulting in better and better nylon sex every time (my partner and I can attest to this). +The more sheer nylon waves you can ride, the better your ultimate high will be. But the ultimate challenge would be the test of how much power and control you have over your release. Nylon highs are addictive and hypnotic and it's easy to lose it among the excitement and the amount of pleasure you're providing yourself. I like to use the analogy that the cock is a beast that is forever chasing the nylon high, your hands hold the nylon ""sword"" that both feed the beast and teaches it that you're the ultimate master and only you can ""free"" it. Don't let the beast dominate you. True mastery is only cumming on your own command or your partner's volition (but your partner must also not accidentally take you over the edge). Hence, communication and your partner's understanding of your vocal and physical cues is vital! +If you were to ask me, the pinnacle of mastery in terms of nylon edging is full immersion into the sensation yet having an adept amount of awareness and control over the silken embrace. It is letting the nylon become a part of you and consume you yet not being washed out by its waves and fully succumbing to its gossamer temptations. +\--- + **Techniques** +In terms of edging and general masturbation techniques, I believe this has been covered extensively across the Internet so I will only mention several of my own preferred techniques plus some techniques that I have tried with my partner in the next section. In terms of using this gossamer fabric to feed your nylon desire as a solo activity this can be divided into two categories or three categories depending on who you're asking. These are: penis encasement, hand and arm encasement (like a glove without the individual fingers or nylon gloves) and simultaneous (combining the two). + + **Penis Encasement** + * Indeed the one of most common ways to immerse yourself into the world of nylon edging is by encasing your cock and/or balls into the nylons and stroking into it like a sheathe. This creates a ""looser"" and more wispy sensation overall unless you're using a small nylon sock or something that encases your member tight enough to create a tight encasement. Some of you may prefer this and this technique is best done with slicker nylons with a good degree of smoothness otherwise the friction may result in an unpleasant burn during extended sessions. + * Try playing around with the head of your penis as this is a sensitive area and create an 'O' with your index finger and your thumb and glide your ring over the head of your penis. Whilst doing this, you can stroke the shaft with your other hand. Focus on how the nylon feels over your cock, how effortlessly it glides without lubrication (especially if you're using slick nylons with a bit of shine) and how it achieves the seemingly impossible task of being soft and electric and tingling on your skin at the same time. As you feel like you're about to reach a climax, stop, let go of everything, think about something else for a little while (especially when you're first starting to edge) and once you're confident that you can feed the ""beast"" more pleasure, continue. + * It's also important to take care of your balls. Try to pull the stocking over your balls so you can ""flick"" the nylon against the soft skin of your balls with a quick scooping action. Another technique would be to cradle them, rubbing one testicle, then the other and flicking your individual fingers one by one against the raphe of your scrotum from start to finish. Thank me later. + **Hand Encasement & Nylon Gloves** + * There is really nothing like the versatility and control you can get with a pair of stockings rolled over each of your hands and arms tightly. To me, this is an incredibly arousing sight because you're imbuing your hands with the power to bring the sensual gift that only nylon can provide and ""fuel"" for your nylon passion. The advantage to this technique is that it's also easier than full encasement and you don't lose out on too much pleasure as the next step would be full encasement. + * With your hands encased in nylon, there are several techniques that you can employ to get a good edging wave series going. One nice single handed technique that leaves your free hand to browse for visual material or do whatever you please is the Alternating Stroke. With the Alternating Stroke, you're sharing the nylon love on your penis and your balls. I would start by stroking to the Edge by pumping my cock and then ""hang"" at the edge by teasing my balls with little flicks and rolling them in my palms whilst focusing on the nylon sensation. This is even better with soft nylon gloves (good luck as a nice feeling pair is actually quite hard to find) as you can dance your individual fingers one at a time over your balls and tease them that way. If you're not experienced, this will drive you crazy initially but do try to resist the urge to take yourself over the edge as the final release will be worth it! + * There are a couple of edging games you can play with stockings over your hands and arms. One of my favorite ways to reach the edge is a game called Pump and Drag. Whilst you are stroking with your dominant hand and rubbing the head of your penis, drag your other arm over your balls slowly upwards and when you reach your hand, you can either give it a tug, a couple of flicks or a roll. Do this with increasing degree of intensity as you pump faster with your dominant hand. The other game revolves around my favorite sensation, the flick. The Flicking Game involves continuous stroking and rolling over the balls until you get to the edge and then you apply one rapid flick to your balls and then stop; rinse and repeat once you start to relax but add one more flick the next time you flick. I like to climax with this one as it's not only a hot way to get you over the edge but also build your stamina; see how many flicks you can get on your balls before your final climax. + * Use your imagination and creativity as there are many ways to edge and many edging games to play when developing your relationship with nylons and mastery over your release. There's a lot of pleasure and different sensations to be had. I'd love to hear about your experience. +\--- + **Partner Techniques** +All of the solo techniques above are even better when enjoyed with a partner. This guide is already getting quite long and every couple is different so I'll just note down a few of our personal experiences here. My partner loves teasing me with her nylons during the day and in the evening or the afternoon she'll usually cut a hole in her tights or pantyhose for easier access. We'd usually fondle each other's sensitive parts with stockings during foreplay and build our way up to penetration. During our session she'll get two stockings and wear them over her hands as gloves and rub my back and chest with them (doesn't get more intense than this)! After this, we'll usually hug and she'll leave her stockings on her hands and use them to edge me for Round 2. +She also enjoys just lying next to me and lazily edge me with stockings/pantyhose as she loves seeing how excited that makes me. We usually start off with a sensual massage of my balls and run the stockings over my body and she'll then start edging me. To finish me off, we like to play a game where she starts off doing 1 fast stroke followed by a series of slow strokes then increase that to 2 fast strokes followed by slow strokes and keep doing that until I cum. I made it to 13 once. +If we're feeling especially kinky or in the mood for encasement, we both wear Wolford full-body encasements made with their Pure 10 tights (it was painful cutting a hole in a pair of these but so worth it) and fondle each other and have hours of nylon fun. Sometimes we'll even layer stockings over our hands and legs for different sensations when edging. Pure 10 layers really well with a softer, higher denier nylon and just glides over your skin in the most engaging yet! Just have fun and experiment with different techniques and toys. More on that below. +\--- + **Experimentation** +A couple of things you can play around with in terms of mixing things up and/or taking your edging to the next level are: aural, visual and additional tactile inputs. +Let's start with the most obvious: tactile inputs. If encasing your hands and arms and/or your jewels in nylon isn't enough to take you to the edge or you're just looking for that something extra to take your fetish to the next level, then you could consider full body encasement. A nylon suit can be made with a large hold-up stocking as a hood and two pairs of pantyhose to encase your torso, hands and arms. +\--- + **Final Notes** +There you have it, hopefully I've enticed you to give nylon edging, or at least nylon masturbation a try! It can be a relaxing and sensual experience and/or an erotic and exciting one depending on how you and your partner play things out during your sessions. +My personal preference for long solo edging is, surprisingly, a pair of L'eggs Silken Mist pantyhose that have been washed a few times worn as a glove on my right arm with the left leg wrapped around my arm and a stay-up stocking that glides better on my left hand. In addition to this, I'd wear Wolford Pure 10 pantyhose on my legs for its unmatched smoothness and softness when rubbing one leg against the other; the sound drives me crazy as well! Usually I stroke the head and the shaft with my left hand using the aforementioned solo techniques under the pantyhose and cradle my balls with the Silken Mist material and utilize a combination of flicks, rubs, back of hand strokes and ""cradle waves"" to stimulate them. No lube required, all the mess is contained! +Usually I'd have on some chillhop or nothing at all and spray some of my partner's signature fragrance into the room. Let me know if this works for you and if you have any tips and tricks of your own to share. +This combination results in a hypnotic gliding silkiness along the shaft and the head but a contrasting softness and smoothness on your balls.

I have been a Literotica reader since 2007. I have been overall impressed by the quality of writing on the site and I appreciate the work everyone does in creating their stories and admire the courage it takes to post a story. I commend all those who have used Lit to develop as a writer. That said, often I am a picky reader and have noticed things I don't always have the opportunity to critique or comment on. This has led to creating a list of tips based on my experiences as a reader for writing stories, getting a story read, and maintaining long term readers. I hope it helps someone! +Tips on writing a story +1\. Its pretty obvious, but there is nothing more important than thorough proofreading and/or finding someone else who will read through your story before publishing. Mistakes happen, but if you have too many it becomes unreadable for many. +2\. If your story is location specific, know the location you are writing about. If you can't visit the area yourself then take the time to read up on your location, check out blogs written by people who live in the area, and Google location pictures to get a better sense of what makes the location unique. If you can, find someone on Lit who is from the location to read through your story to make sure the location rings true. +3\. Be mindful when using dialect in your story. Too much dialect or too poorly done can make the story unreadable, but when it is well done it can transport the reader. +4\. I think writing Science Fiction and Fantasy short stories is very challenging and I respect all those who write in this category. You have to build an entire world and society within a few short pages. Take the time to fully think through the world you want to create. The best in the professional writing field, Tolkien, Lucas, Rowling, are the best because they themselves know every detail of the worlds they create to the point where they can be consistent throughout their stories. +5\. The number of named characters should be proportional to the length of the story. If you are writing a multi-part story consider providing a list of characters at the top of each new chapter. +6\. Be consistent within your story. Nothing is more disorientating than when a major detail, such as someone's name, changes within a story. This is something proofreading can fix, and is more important than grammar or spelling. +Tips on getting your story read +1\. Under no circumstances allow a story's title and description to have any spelling or grammatical errors. Nearly 100 percent of the time I will bypass any stories with such errors. If an author can't proofread this section, the quality of the story itself is automatically in doubt. +2\. Think before you use a pun. I think coming up with a title is often the most challenging part of writing. If you have a clever and rarely used pun that fits your story go for it. On the other hand, avoid using puns as a lazy titling device. Puns that include variations of cum particularly fit this category. +3\. Pick an accurate category for your story. It seems obvious, but occasionally you will find a story that should have been in another category. Almost everyone is particular about what they want read. Additionally, if your story could fit two categories such as a Fetish Romance, put it in the category that best describes it, but include the other category in your description. +4\. If you write a Text With Audio story consider providing the text or also publishing it under another category without the text. It may pull in more readers for you if there is a non-audio version. +5\. For any categories that may be offensive for some readers, such as Incest, Nonconsensual/Reluctance, or BDSM, if your story is a milder form of the genre (i.e. sex with step-family or in-law, role play reluctance, light bondage or spanking) consider putting that in your description to pull in more readers. +6\. Consider who you want your audience to be. Do you want it to be predominantly one gender or one sexual orientation? This will have a significant impact on who actually reads your stories. Sexual fantasies are often very specific to the groups you want to write for. For example, fantasies for women or men are different than women and men. +7\. Don't give away surprise endings in the description. +Tips on getting long term readers +1\. Write! Probably the worst thing as a reader is when you are reading a multi-part story and the author quits writing. That said, we know writers have lives and that the writing process takes awhile. This is not in reference to authors who just need time to write and often, bless them, take the time to update us. +2\. Unless it is part of a personal writing exercise (in which case more power to you), be careful of not writing the same characters in all of your stories. Different names will not hide the fact that the characters have the same quirks, insecurities, or idealistic qualities. Even best selling authors have this problem." +685,Oggbashan Plot Bunnies,oggbashan,How To,2021-05-28,2021-05-28,2022-01-04 08:37:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/oggbashan-plot-bunnies,Soem ideas on how I find plots.,"['Ghosts', 'People']",4.39,"_Copyright oggbashan May 2021_ +The author asserts the moral right to be identified as the author of this work. +This is a sort of how-to to give ideas to people who have difficulty thinking of a plot. +Unlike many authors, I am never short of plot bunnies. Why? +1.My plot bunnies often start it that time when I am not really awake in the morning. An idea occurs and I wonder. Sometimes I am not awake enough to recall it later, but usually I am. +2.My typical plot bunny starts with two people, usually two, meeting in a normal situation that might involve poor weather. I then think what if? How do they develop a relationship from there? +3.Sometimes I do a random search for bondage pictures on DuckDuckGo. Most are of bound women, but because of my fan base, I usually change the woman to a man. How did he end up like this, but some are overused tropes like meeting someone on craigslist and ending up as a bound, often crossdressed bound, captive. +4.Re-reading some of my stories can lead to spin-offs of minor characters having a story of their own, or the main characters developing another story. +5\. Reading posts on Literotica can produce plots or incidents in a plot. For example there has been a recent discussion on the General Board about watches. That produced a feature about watches in jeanne-d-artois' latest story, currently pending. +6.I rarely have to sit and think of a plot bunny because there are just too many reproducing like rabbits. But if I need one, I use a method John Buchan wrote about for his novel The Three Hostages. He started with three separate scenes. There was a blind woman spinning wool; a boy dressed as a girl and a third scene which I have forgotten. His plot was to link the three apparently unrelated scenes together. +7.Only once have I sat down with a piece of paper and worked out a series of related plots. That was for my 2003 NaNoWriMo challenge. I wanted a series of chapters, all with a link, that ended up as 50,000 words. I used the idea of The Adventures of a Shilling by Joseph Addison, but the link was some hand- embroidered red silk panties. My original list had thirty-six parts but as I started to write, some of the parts grew longer and longer. I decided I didn't need all thirty-six (some of which have been reused for other stories) and that some were near duplicates of parts already written. The thirty-six became twenty-eight after duplicates were deleted. Eventually I finished the 50,000 words with only twelve parts. +8.The basic premise of almost all my stories is: man meets woman. How? Why? What do they do together? What challenges, adversaries do they face? How do they overcome them? And of course, most oggbashan stories end as Happy Ever After. +9.The Macguffin plot. This is the plot used in The Maltese Falcon, Romancing the Stone and the Indiana Jones movies. The whole premise is based on everyone chasing an object. What the object is and why they are chasing it doesn't really matter. It is enough that several people are after the same thing. +10.Saved by the hero. I have used this too often. Woman is in awkward, possibly even life-threatening, situation until he comes along, rescues her, sorts her out, and a relationship develops. Sometimes it can be reversed - she saves him. +11.Random people. I live on a sea front. There are hundreds of people to look at every day. I can look at passers-by and wonder : How did such a small woman meet such a large man, or such a large woman attract such a small man? Of course they might not be a couple. They could be just close to each other as they walk past, but I can think What If? How did they meet? What is their relationship? If any? I don't need to know the people, just be able to think about them. Any story may not be based on those individuals just be inspired by them. +12.Fantasy 1 - Ghosts. My ghosts have substance and can make love as beings with form and weight. +13.Fantasy 2 - Androids/Robots. My androids and Robots have human characteristics and emotions. Exploring the differences can be interesting. +14.Fantasy 3 - Invented Worlds. I can create a world that has some difference from the current earth. The important thing is that the created world should be internally consistent. The change could be minimal like my Shelacta series, or major like Tripletit. It is the differences that nake for the story. +15.Fantasy 4. The Earth but with some difference such as Edible Stockings where shape shifters are around together with a few other aliens. How do they react with normal human beings? +16.Themed Contests. The themes restrict your choice of subject. Some, like April Fools or Nude Day, can be difficult to think of an original twist that hasn't been overused. They require thought and perhaps those contests should be avoided and more effort be put into the easier themes. But entering every contest is a way to extend yourself and attract attention, some of it unpleasant. +17.Random expressions. Why is that person looking sad? or happy? Or bored? Or irritated? What was the cause? +18.Random Places. Why would a couple come here on a first or subsequent date? Would it be a success? Or a disaster? Will they find a shared interest? Or that their tastes don't match? Will they learn something about each other? +19.Supermarket Trolleys. If someone has an unusual load of item in their trolley, why? Burgers, sausages, kebabs? - A barbecue at which a couple might meet or argue. Many bottles of wine? A party - opportunities for people to meet or get to drunk and be annoying. A pile of kitchen rolls? Decorating? New house cleaning? +20.Injuries. Why is he/she on crutches? What happened? Who was to blame? Is he/she looking after the injured one or just letting them get on with it? +I hope this submission might give you some ideas. That is all it is intended to do." +686,On Eating Pussy,Interval,How To,2007-05-04,2007-05-04,2022-01-04 08:37:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/on-eating-pussy,One man's thoughts and experience.,"['Cunnilingus', 'Cunnilingus Tips', 'Female Oral Sex', 'Oral Sex Tips', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",4.53,"I think it an exercise in futility for me to think I can tell you or teach you (well, with words only) how to eat pussy. I can share with you my experience and what I have found works for me, and you are free to adopt any of my techniques or experiment and see what works. But I cannot write the definitive ""''how to eat pussy like a champ by following these simple steps."" +The only general guideline I offer is that there is no right or wrong way to eat pussy. It is my experience that each woman is very different in her preferences and anatomy, and the effort you put into oral sex for your lady is really the time and diligence you put into it to find out what works—and what does not. +Being able to openly talk to your woman before, during and after the grand event is very helpful, but sometimes they are not your best guide either from shyness or inexperience. +I think the right attitude is the best skill you can possess in eating pussy. First, see this as a selfless act designed to bring pleasure to your woman. Do your job right, and the payback can be pleasure of untold proportions. Remember, this is not just a warm up for you to fuck her (except when it is) or something that you do because it is expected. You need to have the mindset that you are going to do whatever it takes to provide her a high quality orgasm using only your mouth, tongue and maybe fingers. And you do this because...well... it is just fucking hot for you, too. +In short, I believe the right mindset is something along the lines of ""Eating pussy is its own reward."" +Second, you have to really love the pussy in its entirety. The way it looks, smells and tastes as well as feels when you are fucking. Each woman has a different smell and taste. Some have a heavy scent and taste, others are light. It doesn't matter as they have as much control over this as you do the size of your cock. The point is you need to ""take it as it comes"" (to pardon the pun) and remember that ALL pussy is amazing. Amazing not only for the pleasure it can afford you as a means of intercourse, but in its very existence. The pussy is the center of a woman's sexuality, but not the single place where it resides. However, each woman's pussy is a marvel to behold and something to treasure and that attitude makes it easy to become acknowledged as a master of your skill. +We all have a preference in the smell and taste. But again, other than simple hygiene, your woman has zero control over any of that. Let her know you adore how she smells, how she tastes and how beautiful you think her pussy looks. Hopefully a genuine sense of awe is your mindset. I let her know I want her to ""mark"" me with her juices, that I want her smell on my face, fingers, neck and cock. I will tell her I really need her to abandon herself to my mouth and dance on the tip of my tongue in her erotic dance of pleasure. To use the common vernacular, I urge you to let her know you ""get it."" +As for the mechanics, there really is no right or wrong way—there is just what works for her. There is no one secret, special technique that, once understood and mastered, will make you THE pussy eating champ for all women. However, there are techniques that work for her and that can make you HER world champion pussy eater. And the joy is in the journey and discovery. Truly, a labor love. +Ok, here is how I do it, and take from it what ever you wish. I begin by whispering in her ear that I simply must taste her—that my need to go down on her is strong. Then I take a bit of time to see what I have to work with. Is she dripping wet in urgent need of release? Is she not wet at all and needing the proper time and attention to coax an orgasm out of her? +I begin by just lightly licking the entire pussy. I explore lightly with my tongue, and savior her taste. I take a few very deep breaths to let her know I like what I have found—that simple act alone, letting her hear you breathing her in deeply and robustly, is a great way to set the stage. Then I pay attention to her clit. Does she have a huge clit that is readily exposed? Does she have small clit that is hidden deeply behind the folds of her hood? I find the location and condition of her clit, but leave it alone for the time being. I lick her pussy from stem to stern repeatedly, gently suck her pussy into my mouth, and trace the lines of her pussy lips with the tip of my tongue. I pay attention to how she reacts, and if find something that is really working, I keep doing that until it is time to move on to something else. +That something else is usually the beginning stages of eating her. I never directly stimulate her clit, unless I know this is what works for her. Some women need direct and continual clit stimulation at the outset, but my experience is that most do not. Using the first third of my tongue, I lap the top third of her pussy and alternate in sort of lightly tracing her clit or the hood and her pussy lips. +I also make a point to gently use the tip of my finger to trace and rub the lips, usually taking the time to tell her something hot and nasty, or sweet and loving. But I will for sure tell her that I love the way she smells and tastes—and I tell her that every time. +A note; some women are super sensitive at first and cannot tolerate any firm stimulation of the clit—these are women who, in my mind, I need to ""work up"" to the point of tolerating/needing firm clit stimulation. Other women want a firm tongue lashing of their clit, and from the beginning are in desperate need of rapid and hard attention from my tongue. Pay attention because you want to get this right. +Once she is good and wet from her own juices and my saliva, I will pick up the pace of my lapping and licking and increase the pressure on her clit—one way to look at this is taking the intensity of my actions up a notch while paying close attention that I am not over or under stimulating. +Then I stick one of my own fingers in my mouth and wet it in preparation of inserting it into her pussy. It is my experience that nothing can be more of a momentary ""buzz kill"" for a woman than the sudden introduction of a dry finger. Another good way to do this is to let her suck and wet a finger or two for you. Then I go back to actively eating her and gently slip a finger inside her. +My experience also tells me that finger fucking is not the best use of my digit. Rather, I crook my finger and find the ridged area just inside her on the top. Now, find a rhythm with your tongue on her clit and gently tap and rub that ridged area—which I believe is commonly called the ""g spot."" Then slip a second finger into her and use both finger tips to tap and rub the ridges. And another note, some women's ridges are big and pronounced, other are small and delicate. But notice they all seem to swell and become more pronounced as they build towards orgasm. The swelling and pronouncement of her ridges will happen in direct proportion to her wetness. And it is just hot to feel it happen on your fingertips. +At this point I know I need to be focused but flexible. She might buck and thrash with increasing intensity as she builds. She might push my face into her pussy, or hold my head and grind her hips into my face, or wrap her feet around my upper torso. But then she might also simply lay very passively, opening her legs wide to give you all the access I could hope for and wail and scream...or whisper and make her small noises of pleasure. I just roll with what happens, but when I since she is getting close I will urge her to cum on my tongue. +I find a rhythm and a place on or near her clit that is working and keep going. The time has passed for changing it up or exploration. This is what I call the ""active pussy eating stage."" At this point I am working towards completion, using my tongue and fingers and staying focused. I try to position my nose such that I can breathe; another big buzz killer is breaking the rhythm to gasp for breath. +A woman once told me that when she came with me licking her clit AND rubbing her g spot it felt like an ""internal and external orgasm, while it just feels external and more intense when you use only your tongue."" She did not place a value judgment on one method or type of orgasm over the other. But she did best vocalize the difference in a way I could grasp. By the way, she had this really nice, full natural blond bush. She barely had any taste or smell, and she gushed wetness even when slightly aroused. She also had a g spot that was impossible to miss. She was a wailing, screaming, head-thumping, grind-and- thrash-hard-into-your-face woman that would literally scream ""Fuck, you ROCK"" right before I sent her over the edged by eating her. Her blond pussy was tight, hot... +But I digress. +Anyway, discuss it with your woman. Give her both types and see what thinks of each climax and if she feels a difference. +My orgasm comes in one flavor. I cum hard. I do not think men, or at least most men, can say one cum feels much different from the other. At least physically, anyway. However, I will be the first to admit I might be wrong, and I have not discussed this with other men. But the male orgasm, I think, differs only by very slight degrees of pleasure either way of ""great."" +But my experience is that this is not the case for women. They can have any number of different types of orgasms; hard to the point of violent, or soft and sweet. They can arrive as mind blowing climaxes that leave 'em limp or a little shudder from one that is just sufficient to take the edge off. I have found I cannot control the type or the intensity of her climax as there are many other factors that come into play that are usually outside my abilities. The point is, I can make a woman cum (99 times out of a 100) by eating her pussy, but the quality of her climax is not a sure thing I can replicate for her time and time again. However, I do like the sense of power that comes with a challenge wherein I am have to coax an orgasm out of a lady when I eat her, and succeed. +That said, I do know I can ruin it for her at the end with bad mechanics. There is providing too much stimulation or licking/fingering ""too hard"" that can fuck up a climax. Or breaking the rhythm by losing her sweet spot (clit) just as she goes over the edge and the resulting orgasm is one of less intensity. Or losing the rhythm too many times and turning her into a frustrated, overly sensitized woman who can't go over the edge. Yep, check the box, I have done all of that. At times I have been the worst pussy eater known to woman. And those failures have made me much, much better at the job. +Perhaps one technique to experiment with is the ""Butterfly."" In this, you eat her pussy and use the index and middle finger to tap her g-spot. The ring finger has no job, so you keep it curled in. Use the tip of your little finger to gently probe her anal opening. You need not penetrate her ass (unless she grooves on such a thing) but rather just toy with her little rosebud and give her ass a little play. You might be amazed at the reaction you get. My experience is I at least get a shy little admission that ""how you did that was hot."" +I believe the cool down is important to the entire experience. I pay attention and let her body will tell me when to stop licking her clit. I will keep eating pussy until I receive some sign of ""enough!"" It can be the words ""stop,"" or a tightened body that goes slack, legs and arms unclenching my head and hips not being wildly pounded into my face. It can be having your head pushed away. When it is over, I will very gently kiss the area around her pussy, her inner thighs, her tummy...just light little kisses, while taking an occasional deep breath to let her know I continue to adore her scent. I once had a lover whose every nerve was on edge after she came that even a little kiss on her inner thigh made her jerk with little jolts of pain. But I linger in the area until they come back down...come back to me. +And for me, the greatest reward of being a good pussy eater when she whispers in my ear an urgent plea; ""Baby, I need you to do that thing you do."" Or something more direct. +So those are my thoughts on eating pussy. I appreciate your reading this." +687,On Writing Celebrity Fantasies,AchtungNight,How To,2009-03-23,2009-03-23,2022-01-04 08:37:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/on-writing-celebrity-fantasies,Advice on how to pen the best celebrity stories.,"['Author Advice', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing How-To']",,"There comes a point in many writers' careers when they reflect on what they pen and why. I am at that point right now as I type this document. Perhaps you, the reader, are there with me. Whether or not, I hope you find lessons in these words. I hope you will understand that the opinions expressed herein are mine and that everything I say is merely a suggestion. Now let us turn to the subject before us. +For the past several years, I have been creating fictional stories about famous people and putting them on the internet. I am far from the only individual who has done such a thing. You may be considering it yourself. Some have said my actions are wrong. I choose to disagree. I mean no harm to the real people behind my characters. I am merely indulging and documenting imagination. Hopefully, you are the same. +Fantasies about famous people have a place in society and history. In medieval times, knights and bards used to write love ballads to the ladies they admired. It did not matter to them if the target of their affections was promised to another, or if she knew of the favor she was given. In the early 20th century, erotic comics called ""Tijuana Bibles"" were circulated featuring well-known figures in erotic situations. Invariably, they were published without the figures' knowledge or permission. The tradition of celebrity obsession and satire is well-established in our current media. Magazines such as ""Mad"" and TV shows such as ""Saturday Night Live"" have built their reputations on it, as has the entire tabloid industry. Wild ""facts"" concerning certain celebrities, particularly Chuck Norris, are popular online. Celebrity fan fiction is merely another facet of this tangled web. +People write such stories for many reasons. Some have fantasies about famous people and wish to put them on paper for others to enjoy. The stories can also be expressions of admiration and affection towards a famous figure, or commentary on what they mean to a writer. They can be comedy, tragedy, or drama. Fans may request them of writers. Whatever the reason, they are a valid expression of the writing craft. +Writing celebrity fan fiction is legal. People create it because they can. The United States Supreme Court established this in Hustler Magazine vs. Jerry Falwell in 1988. They said that fan fiction is free speech, and thus protected under the United States Constitution. Any writer who chooses to turn his pen to the topic should thus have little to fear. +Yet, given all this, I often find myself questioning what makes a good celebrity fantasy story. I am not the only author I have seen in such a quandary either. This essay may help a writer of celebrity fantasies get over their insecurities concerning the genre and improve their writing. I make my recommendations based on what I have learned over the course of my career. +First, there are some things the celebrity fan fiction writer should keep in mind. These sound like heavy-handed warnings for a reason. If you respect them, there is less chance you will ever be sued over your work. Yes, you will probably win any lawsuits thanks to the precedent of Hustler Magazine. Still, a lawsuit can bankrupt, exhaust, and greatly trouble both plaintiff and defendant. In my opinion, it is rarely worth getting into one. Fortunately, they can be deterred if you follow the advice herein. It also may improve your writing, and your rapport with fans who give you feedback. +The stories you write may feature real people, but they are not real and can never be real. Trying to make them real would be offensive and wrong. Fantasies are all well and good, but getting obsessed with them is not. Write all the fantasies you wish. Just remember they are fantasies and nothing more. Remain detached as you write and don't get personally involved. You should give the task all your writing skill, but going overboard and confusing fantasy and reality is a bad thing. I hope you knew that already. +The celebrities used as characters in the stories are not the real people they mirror. They are imaginary parallel universe echoes of those people, concocted by the author. While based on real people, they are altered and idealized to a degree that reality and fantasy does not mesh. This is natural when creating a fantasy and it is fine. You probably would find it difficult writing your real self into an erotic story. Now think about how hard it is with someone you don't know. +It's especially tough when we want to turn a famous actress like Reese Witherspoon into a lesbian and we know in real life she probably isn't. So we create a character with the same name, personal background, and appearance, but who happens to be lesbian instead of straight. This is fine. Every writer takes shortcuts and makes stuff up. It is fine to do that with celebrity fantasy stories, as long as you do not go too far from reality or become too involved in your own work. Our fictional Reese Witherspoon will only appear in our stories, we acknowledge that she's not real, and we won't be informing the real Reese of her existence. Now if she comes across the story on her own and is all right with someone thinking of her in such a way, that's fine. We won't be soliciting her opinion, though. We're not that type of fan. We're merely putting the fantasy we have into text for readers to enjoy perusing. Hopefully all those who see it will enjoy the read. +Celebrities usually cannot admit in public that they know fan fiction concerning their lives exists. Those who hear of it will often worry that the author is crazy. There is reason for such fear. An obsessed fan killed the singer Selena Perez. President Reagan was shot by an insane fan of actress Jodie Foster. Stephen King wrote a popular novel called ""Misery"" about a fan who tortures a writer into giving his series the ending she wants. Other celebrities are often stalked, harassed, and pushed into extreme emotional states by fans. Every person who would admire a celebrity greatly enough to create fan fiction about them faces the burden of proving they are not like these notorious fans. +Thankfully, cases where celebrities are flattered or amused by their fans are far more common than cases where celebrities fear their fans. Celebrities know that having people drawn to them is part of the cost of being famous. So is getting crucified in the tabloids, and becoming icons to people who will never know them as anything more than names and faces on screen. ""Star Wars"" actress Carrie Fisher is among many celebrities who have written books about what fan worship means to them, and how it is both enthralling and disturbing at the same time. +Fans may not approve of fictional stories concerning their idols either. They can have certain images in mind for celebrities, and when you challenge those images, they may focus their anger on you. Some critics also see celebrity fantasies as the refuge of a weak writer, one who has trouble creating original characters and plots. Readers not familiar with the celebrities used in the story are sometimes turned off by the characters before they even start looking at the tale. It can be difficult to get the positive traits of a famous person across in your words. +If you think you can deal with all this, and still put out quality celebrity fantasy stories, I encourage you in the endeavor. The rest of this essay contains advice on how to accomplish the task. Take heart. Fantasies can be captivating even if they are not real. Celebrities often read fantasy stories about themselves and see them as the honorable art they are, even if they don't wish to admit it. Readers can judge stories based on their quality and not preconceived notions of what is proper in writing. All this is more likely to happen than the situations I described prior to this paragraph. I have learned this while publishing fan fiction, through the feedback I have received. I give my fellow writers the following tips. +Assure readers of your sanity and objective nature when you write celebrity fantasies. Include an upfront disclaimer that establishes the stories are not real, for open-minded adults only, and penned to reflect the inspiration their celebrity characters gave the writer. If you want to solicit feedback or discuss how and why you created the story, the disclaimer can be coupled with an introduction. Keep it brief, though. Your story should do most of the talking. +As you imagine scenes, keep in mind that you are advertising the people about whom you write. The feelings of fans who read your work about their idols are in your hands. You have a great responsibility not to alienate those fans from the famous faces they adore. I get pissed every time I read in the tabloids of how Patrick Swayze is dying of cancer. It upsets me more when he insists he's doing fine in his own public statements. I have admired Patrick onscreen since I was a child. My little sister was in love with him once, maybe she still is. Neither of us wants to think of Patrick as a liar, and the tabloids have made him out to be one without his cooperation. We probably won't like it if your story does something similar. Make your Patrick somebody we'd appreciate getting to know. You can have him curse the tabloids, that backs our positive image, but don't prove the tabloids correct. +Research the celebrities who will be your characters before you write them. Put their names in a search engine and visit the sites that come up. View pictures so you have a clear idea of their appearances. Watch their movies, hear their music, and find out what makes them well-known. Lurk on discussion boards and find out what people think of the celebrities who draw your attention. Study magazine interviews and TV appearances. From all this, you can get familiar with the celebrity and know what readers will expect from a fan fiction piece featuring them. That way, you won't be confusing fans who already have an idea of what your characters should be like. +You can also find believable ways to transform the celebrities into characters for your story. How can you make Angelina Jolie a lesbian and turn readers on to the possibility? Why is Jack Nicholson into seducing young girls? Does George Clooney really love the woman you have him romancing in your plot? Could Britney Spears actually have that fetish you envision she does? Make the reader understand why you believe all this to be possible enough to write it out. +You also need to get clear on what you want to tell readers about the famous people on whom you have based your characters. What made them famous? Why should they turn us on? Are they worthy of admiration, and why? Any celebrity fan fiction story should answer all these questions. +Don't use a celebrity's fame as an excuse for laziness. Not everyone who reads your story may recognize your character based on name alone. I first learned of actress Jamie Lynn Sigler through a celebrity fan fiction piece I read for Sarah Michelle Gellar, who was the basis for another character. I have since become a huge fan of ""The Sopranos"", a Mafia drama in which Jamie Lynn Sigler starred. Many people have become aware of celebrities' works through my fan fiction, and your stories may perform a similar service. +The above point also applies when describing characters. You can't just name a celebrity and expect us to know what they look like. Evan Rachel Wood has had blonde, brunette, and red hair during her lifetime, and has also had frequent mood swings. If I read a story about her, I want to know what color her tresses are and how she's feeling about life at the time of writing. I love her as a depressed Goth and as a vibrant free spirit. But which side of her am I seeing in your story? Tell me in your description of her physical appearance, clothing, and so forth. Dialogue and actions will also help, but appearance is the building block for further development. +To put it another way, don't just give us a celebrity's name and expect us to know who they are. Describe their body and personality. Quote their famous lines. Tell us the songs they've sung, or the movies and TV shows they've starred in as applicable. A little advertisement goes a long way. If I don't know who the real Audrey Hepburn was, your story can tell me to watch her iconic performance in ""My Fair Lady"". That film may even become an accompaniment for the fantasy your story creates. Expanded description helps you shape dialogue too, and parody if you're doing that. More than anything, it helps readers suspend disbelief. When reading a celebrity fantasy, I want to get as close to the reality as possible and then see the twist. +Give your character a name and face, then show us who you want them to be. Is your Brad Pitt gay or straight? Why is he into BDSM? Does Madonna ever let her hair down and drop her haughty stage persona? Are the Jonas Brothers really as devoted Christians as they seem? Is Hillary Duff a closet incestuous lesbian? What circumstances could turn her into one if she isn't one already? When you write a fantasy, you need to make readers accept what you plot out. Just stating what you want to be true is not enough. Show us how the fantasies could be real. Your disclaimer and the press will remind us they are not. +Put a unique spin on famous characters if you get an idea for one. Also, bring them down to our level. This will show critics that you can be original. The tabloids have been painting celebrities as selfish fame whores for decades. Fans are tired of the image. Now suppose we get an actress who knows the tabloid image of her is wrong but feels so much angst over it she has to date and break up with someone different every night to distract herself. Suddenly we have a possibly good plot. +Pick your targets well. When I decided to write a religious slut character into my fan fiction, I needed someone who would grab the reader's attention and who was believable in her role. Erika Christensen has a Mae West figure and a diverse acting portfolio. Her films often include hot sex scenes. She has expressed a rebellious nature coupled with devoted spirituality in several interviews. Despite the fact that she has never been nude on screen, she has told reporters she is comfortable with exposing her body. In 2000, she informed Allure Magazine: ""I was always the kind of girl who would get dressed in front of other girls and then wonder if I embarrassed them."" In 2005, she told Spike TV that she knew stories about celebrities' sexual escapades were on the internet and laughed. The pilot episode of her ABC series ""Six Degrees"" featured her performing a striptease while riding atop a garbage truck. Her love scenes are always dramatic and exciting. She is strong in family values, and tolerant of diversity in others. In 2007, she opened a Scientology church in Florida. The following year, she directed an off-Broadway play with heavy psychological themes, including acceptance of lesbianism. I was attracted to Erika by all this, and she helped me create her character for my stories, whether she knew it or not. +I don't think the equally beautiful and religious but less slutty Mandy Moore would be as believable in a story about a religious nymphomaniac. She seems repressed in her films, rarely does love scenes, and has never talked about sex in an interview as far as I'm aware. If you can find something that proves me wrong and create a fantasy Mandy based on that, however, I'd be interested in reading about her. +Two additional research issues bear discussion. Many celebrities have controversies surrounding them. Why did Woody Allen's marriages fail? How can Mel Gibson call himself a faithful adherent of a strange religion that many people dislike? Is Lindsay Lohan a cocaine addict? Is Mick Jagger able to perform sexually at his age? These are just a few examples of the questions people have about celebrities, things that we know about because of the tabloids. They are among the reasons we recognize famous people and are fascinated by them. Any writer of celebrity fantasy faces a challenge when it comes to controversy. Do you ignore it, if you can? Is there a way to settle the issue in your writing so that fans who read your story can maybe get a sense of peace? Dare you put it down in text if so? +There are ways to incorporate tabloid garbage if you have to include it. I agree it is sometimes unavoidable. We'd hardly read a story about Brad Pitt and not expect to at least see some mention of his breakup with Jennifer Aniston. It's been hyped so much. But to make things more fun, you can include pieces of the story the press doesn't know or spin things in a positive way. You made up the information, but that doesn't matter. At least you're admitting what you've done in your disclaimer, something tabloids never have. +Creating a lie we'd like to believe, that may not be a lie anyway, also helps the fan sometimes. Maybe Marilyn Manson really does host sex parties, only there are no drugs or minors involved. We'd like to see him as a good person, right? Perhaps Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are more open-minded than their reputation makes them seem. Make us consider the possibility. Kristanna Loken and Michelle Rodriguez could be in a lesbian relationship. If they are, it's not necessarily a bad thing. It's probably over now, since Kristanna got married to a man in the summer of 2008. Michelle might still come over sometimes to spice up their lovemaking, though. That's a good topic for a fantasy. The reader will be more comfortable imagining it than the negative picture the tabloids paint. Create a positive picture and you will earn praise. +In addition, controversy can be worth exploring if it makes sense in your plot. Readers will expect some attention to it, and it makes a good plot device. Christian Bale has a drinking problem and a pretty female fan drives him home. He rewards her once he sobers up, or maybe she takes advantage of him while he's inebriated. Jessica Alba is feeling the woes of a declining Hollywood star, and she needs a sympathetic ear. Your character befriends her, and she's grateful enough to let him take her home. So what if Kate Hudson has a habit of sleeping with random strangers? This fact helps readers suspend disbelief when you write a character based on Kate Hudson who happens to do the same thing. Just remember to respect both sides of a debate concerning a controversial issue if you get into one. You never know if the person reading your John Travolta story loves or hates the fact that he's into Scientology. Please either side by making him find both benefit and price in his adherence to this controversial religion. +Debates can become steamy stories also. Suppose Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Condi Rice get in a private yet heated argument over some political issue. Each woman presents her case, and they come to agreement on several points. They also get attracted to each other, and you can guess what happens next. +If you must mock a celebrity in your stories, you should do so without malicious intent. Have the celebrity laugh along with the jokes. Teach us a lesson based on their mistakes. Famous people can make interesting villains, but not all readers want to see them that way. Keep negativity to a minimum in your characters and concentrate on their qualities worthy of admiration. You have the power to do just about anything with the real people you are using as characters, but you still have a responsibility to treat them right. Make them into the best versions of themselves you can envision, and then show that vision to the world. +The second issue concerns anti-fans. These trolls enjoy disrespecting celebrities for a variety of reasons. You can see them on celebrity message boards all over the internet. Might they read your story? Should their views on your characters be addressed? +In my experience, anti-fans usually don't read fan fiction, and they will bash it if they so much as hear of it. You can work their view of a celebrity into your story as a character's inner conflict, a satire topic, or a character's reason for villainy, but I advise ignoring them otherwise. People who read celebrity fan fiction typically do so because they like the celebrity involved. They usually won't want to hear about how their idol is mean to the press, snobby with rivals, or abusive towards their lovers. Dumb catchphrases and award speeches are fine quote material for establishing a character, but they should not be all we see of a famous face. Of course, you can always have the celebrity suffer for their selfish actions, and then find redemption and reform. Most readers go for that plot well. If an anti-fan does read your story, it's likely they're a fan in disguise and you should please them in that respect. +Honor your celebrity characters whenever possible. Make them people we'd enjoy knowing. This will please fans and show readers why you like the people about whom you are writing. It will also make celebrities who read your stories more inclined to see them as flattery and not the ravings of an obsessed lunatic. Celebrities should not be among the people who receive the stories directly from you, of course, but if they come across your work, you may want them to see you in a positive light. I recognize that there are fan fiction pieces out there which turn celebrities into vampires, drug whores, and other disturbing things. It is hard for me to find these stories appealing, even when they are well-written. I would not want to be in such a situation, and surely a celebrity would not either. Or if they were, they would want some way back to normalcy when all is said and done. +Make sure you get facts right. It can upset fans when you don't. Don't call Muhammad Ali Christian when he's Muslim. Sylvester Stallone did not star in ""The Terminator"". Natalie Portman is not bald. Wait, she used to be and she made it look sexy. Mention this if you use it. +Now that we have the celebrities down, let's look at their lovers. Obviously, we want these to be appealing characters. That makes for better fantasy. Casting other celebrities is one way of doing things. There are plenty of stories out there that have celebrities in relationships with each other. Actresses Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt are good friends in real life. Your story makes them more than friends. Readers will eagerly buy into the idea. +You can also create a fantasy lover for the celebrity. A writer who charms an actress with his script, a handsome sound engineer who works well with a popular singer; a heroic cop who saves the tabloid darling from her abusive boyfriend, whatever fits your story best. Basing such a character on a fan is a popular request. +Some writers have even put themselves in their tales. The latter is not as bad as it sounds. You're already creating fantasies about famous people, why not yourself also? Just remember, if you put yourself in a story, you should make yourself likeable. Don't be afraid to idealize yourself as much as you have your more famous characters. The only caution is not to go overboard and create a perfect clone of an actual person. This will not please readers most of the time. Real people should have flaws. You may also want to change certain details for the plot. Is Alyson Hannigan really a lesbian witch, or does she merely play such a character on TV? If the latter is true, maybe she meets a character based on you who convinces her to try lesbianism. Hold on, though. You don't regularly hang out with celebrities, since you don't live or work in Hollywood. But if the character based on you does, things become simpler to arrange. +Talk to your characters while writing them. Usually when I'm writing a celebrity story, I imagine I'm a director and the celebrity has agreed to make a film with me. We're negotiating a contract. Emily Blunt will get naked, fuck Anne Hathaway, and engage in suggestive dialogue with my self-insertion character. She will not get violent or drunk. Keira Knightley is fine with fight scenes, and she'll shag me onscreen. Emily Blunt doesn't want sex with a self-insertion character on our first date. I'm okay with that. Tom Cruise will do comedy, but he won't be very funny. Jennifer Aniston agrees to a brief cameo and that's it. Or maybe I talk her into some threesome action with Courtney Cox and David Arquette. I help her calm down to the idea, and the rest follows naturally. +Often, the character's dialogue and development arcs will come to you during this process. Let them speak to you and become your partner in creating their tale. They may even address things which are giving you trouble. ""I don't really love the guy you're making me sleep with, but he might be fun."" ""Yes, human rights are really important to me."" ""I've never fucked a woman before, but I would like to."" ""My husband is not bisexual. I am. The tabloids are confused."" ""This purity ring is a defense mechanism."" ""When I sing about want, what I want is sex."" If characters talk to you, plots soon spring to mind. +It's easier than you think to transform celebrities into wanton sex maniacs. Hollywood mythology is filled with orgies and secret relationships. The arts attract people of alternative sexuality, dressing rooms can build intimacy, and acting can open minds to new ideas. Jealousy abounds, and so does cheating. If you're stumped for a plot, get a tabloid from your local supermarket and write one of its stories as your own. Just remember the disclaimer and positive spin! +There are many other common gimmicks that can also be used. A chance encounter between a celebrity and fan becomes something more. A director demands a tumble on the casting couch in exchange for a role. An actor performs well opposite his co-star and spice develops between them. Two or more actresses are cast in a film together and become attracted to one another as they bond in character. Celebrities meet at a party and go home with each other. You can also create a situation that works better for your tale. Perhaps there is a place like my club ""Inside Out"" or a character such as Carnage Jackson's Dean the Agent, which somehow lowers celebrities' inhibitions when they come near. Write the story and see what develops. If all else fails, let your characters tell you how they want to become attracted to each other and fuck. Watch celebrity interviews and movies for inspiration. The plethora of celebrity fantasies based on films in which the celebrities appeared is proof positive they are a good source of ideas. +Above all, relax when you're penning celebrity fantasies. You are a skilled writer, and you know how to make words flow. You can create varied emotions with your stories, and the familiar image of a famous character is an aid in this. An audience is a guarantee when you use a famous character, and it can get high praise when you do things right. Godspeed, fellow artist, and please let me know if my guidance helped you perfect your craft." +688,Online Dance: The Seven Veils,simply_cyn,How To,2004-06-24,2004-06-24,2022-01-04 08:37:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/online-dance-the-seven-veils,A mini lesson on dancing with words.,"['Dance', 'Dance Veils', 'Rounded Hips']",3.94,"Be it online dancing in a room full of horny men or in real life, the Dance of the Seven Veils is both erotic and beautiful. It actually stems from belly- dancing and dances done in the Far East. Having done extensive dancing with words online, I will attempt to walk you through how exactly something like this is done. +The first thing to keep in mind when dancing online is that you are painting a picture with your words. For everyone that is in the room watching, the only sense they have to experience what you are trying to accomplish is the sense of sight. So you must elicit an image so strong that they can not only see what you are doing, but feel it. Some online dancers are so good that people can close their eyes and hear the music or even smell the dancer's perfume. Of course, this takes time and practice and isn't expected on your first few attempts. It might even take multiple tries to even come close. +The dancer needs to both paint a picture of her surroundings, the dancer herself and set the stage for the dance to come: trembles as she hears the words that strongly command her, the slut yearning for this chance to be devoured by hungered gazes, to beckon the taste of her flesh, to induce the thought of laying claim to the wild barbaric beast that rises from her kneel to shroud wanton form in a rainbow of brightly colored, diaphanous silk scarves, bewitching beauty bathed in soft light as the hour grows late, dimming light from the fire and torches cast an ethereal glow as she takes her place centered before them, slender arms rising to meet with a slither of soft skin and wrists kissed back to back, waiting ... +Now, as you can see, the background has been created beautifully. The reader is eager, almost sitting on the edge of their seat, to see what happens next. The second phase of the dance is now to set the initial stages of the dance to come ... the beginning. As all performing dances are real-time, so should they be online. Performance dances begin slow, tantalizing. So should they be online. The writer should take their time in their descriptions, drawing in the reader so that they are eager for the next section: signals the start of deep throbbing drums with a slight flutter of flimsy cloth, heart throbbing in a frenzied staccato as layers of rippling silk part to reveal the delicious swell of firm rounded hips, lush lips curve enticingly as hips begin to roll in slow wanton circles beneath the gossamer silk, the luscious swell of hips revealed as she rises up on dancer's toes to twirl in a shimmer and flash of golden-hued skin, Thassian blue eyes tease and taunt above the sheer blue veil shrouding delicate features from their stares, flaunting animalistic sexuality as a fire begins to smolder deeply, giving birth to the creature that dwells within +Can you feel it? Do you picture it? At this point, you know what the dancer looks like. You get a feel for the beat of the music, perhaps even the melody being played. The sheerness of the veils being used should be visible in the reader's mind. They should feel transformed in time to that place that the writer wants them to go. +Online dancing is a lot like writing a short story. It must have a plot, setting and characters. The dance is even better if there is a problem that is solved by the end of the dance. I would suggest using a thesaurus to improve and expand your vocabulary so that your words do not become repetitive and bore your reader. +The goal, of course, is to make the reader feel like they are there, watching in awe as this dance reveals itself: suddenly stops as drums crash dramatically to a halt, hands flying high above tangled curls falling in tantalizing waves down an unmarred back, locked within the wisp of silk, displaying openly to those that watch her need to be bound, body, heart and soul ~ the music beginning again with haunting tunes and undertones, movements of former bond-maid rising like the phoenix, hot and urgent as the czehar begins to add its melody to the throbbing of the tabor, scornfully discarding the light fabric from her wrists to move more freely, glinting auburn locks flying from slender shoulders, feet crossing again and again as she spins, fingers expertly pulling yet another veil, the flash of yellow silk flying into the air and then wafting down to settle upon the dancing tiles +As the dance progresses keep in mind that you do not want to overdo it. Eight posts are about average when doing one online. I have seen as few as four posts and as many as twenty. The whole point is to captivate your reader and pull them into the fantasy that you are creating with your words. Be sure to end on with a bang and leave your reader hoping to see another one created by your imagination soon: pounds out the beat of her need with dainty feet, an exquisite marionette dancing for their pleasure, lean supple thighs stretching, sinuous nude flesh exposed as hands glide over the sensuous plane of undulating belly, fingers splaying as they travel downwards to flow over the flare of rounded hips, the stare of their hungered eyes move over glistening skin in a deliberate rape of wanton flesh, melting downwards in a languid unfurling of exposed skin, firelight licking over lecherous flesh like a thousand tongues as she stretches among the fallen scarves, biting back the softest of moans as trembling form lays helpless in a rainbow of color +Happy dancing!" +689,Online Safety - The Basics,Selena_Kitt,How To,2008-12-27,2008-12-27,2022-01-04 08:37:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/online-safety-the-basics,A guide to protecting yourself online.,"['Cyber', 'Online', 'Relationships', 'Self-Help']",4.81,"I've been doing the ""online thing"" for so many years it's hard to remember a time when I didn't. Chat rooms, bulletin boards, you name it. I thought I knew all the ins and outs, and frankly, I'd never had a problem with anyone I met in all that time. All these claims about ""strangers"" online seemed silly to me. This was a community, no different from my own ""real life"" neighbors. In fact, I was even more familiar with some of my online pals than with my own neighbors! +Most people are good people, I reasoned. And for the most part, that's true. But there are a small percentage that prove that theory wrong, and the problem is, you just never know when you might run into one of them. You know all those news programs where they show the Jeffrey-Dahmer's-neighbor-type who says, ""I never knew...!"" Well, it applies in the cyber world, too. Most cyber- stalkers appear just as normal as our neighbors. If you lock your doors at night, and are careful to shred all your personal documents before putting them in the trash, shouldn't you take the same analogous precautions in your cyber communities, too? +I once met a man online. We clicked immediately, and it went from online to phone chat rather fast. I was amazed how quickly things seemed to fall into place, how simpatico we were. We discovered another coincidence. We only lived a few miles from each other! It seemed meant to be... +Not long after, we decided to hook up—so I drove to meet him at his apartment... +Can you imagine the way this story ends? +Does your mind fill in the blanks? +What's wrong with this picture? +I'll tell you now...this story does have a happily ever after. He was actually everything he claimed to be. Thankfully, he wasn't a serial killer or a rapist. We've been married for years and have two beautiful children. It seemed to prove my theory—most people are good people. +But that's simply because I was lucky. I cringe when I think about what could have happened, given my impulsive actions. +Unfortunately, my teenage daughter inherited my impulsive nature, and in spite of our warnings and precautions, ended up in a very precarious situation with a man who turned out to be a ""cyber-stalker."" In the end, we were able to protect her, and ourselves, from this predator, but it could have turned out very differently. I know now just how dangerous the online world can be, and there are ways you can protect yourself and your family you might not be aware of. +Meeting someone online used to raise eyebrows, but nowadays, it's old hat. Still, just because it's common doesn't mean it's always safe. Would you give your phone number to someone you met at the supermarket? Would you tell a waitress where you live? Would you tell your last name to someone you met in the locker room at the gym? +But that's what many of us are doing online. In fact, we're not just giving it out, we're broadcasting it, in great big neon letters above our heads—and most of the time we don't even realize it. +Most chat, bulletin board and Internet Service Providers ask you to fill out a profile about yourself. What many people don't know is this information is often available to anyone who might want to see it. If you fill a profile out with details about yourself, your family, and where you live, you're making yourself instantly vulnerable. +Also, if you're just casually chatting with someone, and answer that a/s/l question (age, sex, location for those of you who are chatting newbies) the only other question you'd have to answer is ""What's your last name?"" for someone to start searching the Internet for you. And the likelihood is, they'd find you. +There are plenty of search sites to locate people out there. In fact, several directories now have reverse look-ups, meaning I can type in your email address, or your phone number, or your address, and find your name. In some states, I can pull up your driver's license onscreen. Scary? It's not that hard. You don't have to be some computer whiz kid or private eye to do it, either. +It can be as simple as going to Google and typing your name in quotation marks. Think I'm kidding? Try it. Go type your name into a search engine: ""John Doe"" and see what comes up. Did you find yourself? If you didn't, try adding your location afterward: ""John Doe"" Idaho, and see what comes up. What you find might be eye-opening, and even scary. All someone needs to know is your last name and location, and there's all sorts of things they can find out about you. +Remember: if you can find you, so can they! +So the first thing to do is stop putting your personal information out there. The next thing is to Google yourself and find out where that information is and remove it. Take careful note of the Internet privacy policies of any company you deal with online. Most of us skip over this part, but it's actually very important. If you're filling out ANY form online, check to see what the site's privacy policy is. Who will see this information? Will it be sold? If anyone else is going to get your information, do not fill out the form. +Another issue develops when you have a personal web site or blog. Many people are very open, sharing information about friends and family, but this can backfire if you get into a cyber-stalking situation. It's safest just not to do it from the start. It's obvious to say don't post your personal information: full name, address, phone number. Duh! Right? +But I would go further. Don't use your real name and don't use your children's real names. There are lots of family blogs out there that have gone to using pet names or nicknames or initials when talking about family members (""Baby Boo"" or BB) instead of using real names. This is preferable. And if you post pictures on your blog or website, be careful to exclude any with identifiable location features—sweatshirts with school names, recognizable landmarks, etc. +The other thing about websites to be aware of is the WHOIS lookup. Did you know that anyone can look up who a web site is registered to? And what comes up will include all of your personal information: name, address and phone number. Make sure, if you have a web site, you go through a company that will allow your WHOIS information to be anonymous! +Your email address is also an issue, especially if you have a local Internet Service Provider (ISP). The safest thing to do is use a website-based email service for anything you do online. Hotmail, Yahoo, Google—they all have email services that are free and allow you to send and receive email without revealing any personal information. (Just be careful not to fill out too much in your profile!) If you use the email that your local Internet Service Provider gives you, your email headers will reveal way too much information you didn't realize you were sharing, including your location, your ISP, and sometimes even your real name! If you want, you can even sign up for a free, anonymous email service (gmail offers it) that will provide forwarding of email messages to your ISP email address. +Be careful if you or your family are using an Instant Messenger service. Some versions of IMs will expose your Internet Protocol (IP) Address. Remember—privacy information is your friend! Check your IM service and read the privacy information available. Read up on how to protect your IP address, your private email address and any other information that may be displayed to someone sending you an IM with that IM service. The best thing is not to send or reply to messages from people you don't know. Use parental controls for minors and set it up so IMs from ""strangers"" are immediately refused. +Be careful, too, to use a unique user name for different services and places you join. Yes, this can be a pain, but you shouldn't use the same nickname twice. Why? Because if someone decides to start cyber-stalking you, you can move on and change your name without them being able to find you. But if you've used the same ""nick"" all over the web, they're going to be able to find you again (and again, and again) without too much of a problem. +You can chat and email and surf safely, you just have to be careful and aware. You can actually use free services like Anonymizer, which cloak you completely. Any website you've visited won't be able to trace your Internet Service Provider. +If you have minor children or older teens using the computer, make sure they are doing so in a main-traffic household area so you can keep an eye on them. Make good use of parental controls and invest in a computer ""nanny"" service. If you really don't want your children using the computer when you're gone, take the power cord (or keyboard) with you when you leave. Be sure you know their ""friends"" online. It's safest to only allow them to talk to people they already know in real life. +If you are single and dating on the Internet, just remember to use much more sound judgment than I did! Granted, my story turned out well—but it could have turned out very differently. Don't assume that everyone is trustworthy, even if most people turn out to be. If you do finally decide to meet someone from online, make sure you do so in a public place, take a cell phone, and tell a friend where you're going and with whom. You can even have a ""back-up"" call planned. Have your friend call you twenty-minutes into the ""date,"" and ask, ""Are you okay?"" That can be your signal—if you feel unsafe, you can use the call as an excuse to end the date. +But what do you do if you or someone in your family becomes the victim of a cyber-stalker? +You should email the service and report them. Include as many details as you can (copies of emails and messages, their user name, whatever information you have.) If you're lucky and the harassment has only occurred online, close your account where the harassment has taken place. Get a new account and email address from your main Internet Service Provider, or change your ISP. Cancel or close any web-based email services and IM services you've used to contact this person or that they've used to contact you through. If the harassment has been offline, too, contact your local authorities and make a complaint. You can also change your phone number(s) and pay to make sure they remain unlisted. +Most people are good people. I still believe that. But after my daughter's incident with a cyber-stalker, I know much better how to protect myself and my family from the small percentage of those online who aren't good people at all. Because while I will always believe that most people are good people, I also now know it's always better safe than sorry." +690,The Only Guide to Erotic Writing,Randen,How To,2002-03-31,2002-03-31,2022-01-04 08:40:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-only-guide-to-erotic-writing,The only guide you will ever need.,[''],,"I have proudly completed writing my first erotic story and sent it off for editing.

Unless, you are into S&M and don’t mind a bit of literary flagellation. +“Its, It’s, Its’ back to the drewing board for me, myself and I!!??”, I says confusing?" +691,Oral During Pregnancy,JDecker,How To,2021-01-04,2021-01-04,2022-01-04 08:37:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/oral-during-pregnancy,Helpful tips from a real mother and son couple.,"['Mom', 'Oral', 'Pregnancy', 'Son']",3.6,"Introduction +People who are familiar with my writings probably have noticed I said mom didn't suck me before, but she started doing that during her pregnancy. We did oral throughout the period, so I thought it might be useful to write a little guide for people who might be in the same precarious situation. +I consulted my mother about issues with performing fellatio when her belly started getting heavy, and I will later talk about my own experiences of cunnilingus on her while she was pregnant with my child. +By the way, mom said you can call her Bridget if you want to ask us anything. That's not her real name, for obvious reasons, but it's close enough. Just getting this out of the way. Also mom didn't want to write anything, so I had to listen to her talk and try to type and edit what I could. I tried to retain some words she likes to use and she did check the text, so it should be OK. Any errors are probably mine. +Anyone can use this short guide to assist them in their love life, but keep in mind this is written from a mother and son viewpoint, so everything might not be directly applicable to other kinds of relationships. I highly suggest you consult other sources too, we did so ourselves, and I don't pretend to be any kind of an expert. I'm only talking about my own experiences here. We did of course confirm that we aren't doing anything that might be harmful to the baby, and you should too, especially in case you have any unusual health concerns. +Those of you who are in the same situation as us must understand that you are now still a mother and a son as well as parents. This will have an effect on you for the rest of your lives, so pregnancy is a very important time in coming to terms with the situation. That is the reason I wrote this, to help other people who are facing these same issues in their lives. Of course you may be having very different kinds of problems of your own. Me and mom hope this guide can help you and the chosen one of your heart, whoever that is. +Bridget's blowjob advice for mothers carrying their own son's child +Hi there! Like JD said, I'm his mom. You may have already read about us in his writings. If you are interested in the full history, please do. But in short, we have been making love for several years now, yes even though we are a mother and son. Many will surely disagree or even vent their anger, but this has been the best time of our lives, so please respect our feelings and do that elsewhere. +Then it happened, what we thought unlikely. You know what, since you're reading this. Yeah, I was preggers and it was too late to do anything about it. +What saved us was we discovered oral sex. Well, I did, I know what kind of stuff sonny writes. He had barely any experience in it before, but his imagination's always been wild. +He was surprised when I gave him his first blowjob. He was clearly feeling down during the second trimester when everything was becoming really apparent, so I wanted to do something I know +he is fascinated by. Blowjobs take skill to perform well, so in the beginning I was learning as much as he was. My eyes probably widened almost like in his stories when he ejaculated into my mouth for the first time, but I'm proud to say I did swallow. Yay for mom! I kept stroking the shaft with my thumb and forefinger and constantly tried to retain eye contact. +It went better than expected, but I'm gonna say while it's instinctive for many women to stroke like that, it's actually better if you can bounce your head up and down and do it with your lips. That takes effort and can be tiring, so it may not be possible for everyone at every situation. I didn't get good at it until a month later, but keep trying and I'm sure you'll manage it too. +Don't forget the testicles, they are very sensitive and important, especially at a moment like this. Since you have at least one hand free, use it for that purpose and just caress them with your fingertips. Make sure to keep going as long as the ejaculations come and don't stop until you're sure it's over. Many young men can shoot more than you would think, which may surprise you if your son is in the eighteen to twenty age group. Keep this in mind if you are in that kind of a situation. +Many women aren't into swallowing, I wasn't either, but I guess it's important when a man has made his own mother pregnant. Okay, I just said that to make JD happy since that's what happens in his writings, but I actively made myself to believe in that then for reasons I'm sure you understand. Now he's glaring at me because I told him to write that down. +You should at least try to swallow, though, it's only polite. Try to understand that when your son ejaculates into your mouth, he is giving you a gift. That should help your maternal instincts take over and help you to swallow everything without any gagging or reluctance while keeping eye contact with him. +When it's over hold his balls gently in your hand and kiss them several times, all over, thanking them for the baby he has given you and for the warmth they squirted into your mouth. That way your son will understand that you don't blame him for what has happened, and that you will continue to be happy together regardless of what future may bring. +If you can, it's best to keep the blowjobs going, maybe even several times each day all the way through the pregnancy period like we did. That will help your son to come to terms with the situation and to find a new kind of trust in you as both his own mother and his child's mother. +When your belly gets really big it may be painful for you to be on your knees. Although it's possible to support the belly with pillows, the easiest method is just to have him lay down on a bed. That leaves you a choice of several positions from which you can get her lips in position and still remain comfortable. It would be useful to have illustrations of these positions, but neither me nor JD have the artistic talent to provide them, so I hope you can figure them out by approaching him from different angles and feeling how your belly shifts around. +JD's cunnilingus advice for sons trying to cope with the situation +Let's talk about cunnilingus. I again point out these are just things that work for me and mom, I don't pretend that I'm a world leading authority on the topic. I mean I had kissed my mother's vagina before, but not really used my tongue. You'll get better at it if you just keep trying, just like I did. +Even if you think you're already good, your mother's pregnancy will cause some new things to happen. For example, I soon learned it was a good idea to constantly caress her pregnant belly with my hands. It gives and entirely different kind of sensation which adds to the experience, and it is a constant reminder of your newfound fatherhood and why you should try harder. +Like I have said elsewhere, my mother's vagina is hairy and wide. I actually like feeling her bristly pubic hair against my nose. Some people might disagree, but remember she's your mom so you just have to adjust to the situation. +The looseness also helps me to get my tongue going, but I'm sure you'll manage in case your mother's has stayed tighter. Don't forget to pay attention to the clitoris, or mom will remind you about it. Don't ask me how I know that. +There are some good news, though, if you are inexperienced. Your mother will be in a sensitive state because she's carrying your child, so her vagina will probably start reacting to your tongue faster than you might expect. Don't think it will be as easy if you try it with an unknown girl. I mean, not that I have had the opportunity to try, but there's no way it's as easy as it is with mom. +Then you just have to keep going patiently and try to respond to her motions and feelings as much as possible. Oh yeah, your mother has to remember to keep her legs open as wide as possible, because her thighs may twitch hard at some point. Like I said, remember also to pay attention to her pregnant belly, constantly caress it with your hands. It may take a while to build up an orgasm, but I'm sure you know that women can have them in multiples so it will be worth it, and it will be a very tender and romantic moment when you succeed. +Keep giving kisses during the afterglow, and remember to tell your mother how much you are in love with her vagina. After all, that's why you shot into her womb and why you are having a baby now. A few nice kisses and a simple: ""I love it so much, mom,"" will do be enough. Your mother will appreciate that. +Little displays of affection like this can turn your difficult situation into a wonderful and satisfying experience and lets you enjoy some of the best orgasms of your life. +Afterword +Hope these tips will help you. I'll try to write more stuff when I have the time, but that's bit of a challenge right now. I'm sure you all understand that. Bye bye and kisses from JD & Bridget. + " +692,Oral Pleasures,othbndy,How To,2012-09-27,2012-09-27,2022-01-04 08:37:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/oral-pleasures-2,How to eat pussy.,"['Clit Stimulation', 'Cunnilingus', 'Eating Pussy', 'Muff Diving', 'Oral How-To', 'Oral Sex', 'Pussy Eating', 'Pussy Licking', 'Romance', 'Tongue Fuck']",4.62,"Guys, women usually approach sex from a different perspective then we do. Let me briefly try to explain the difference. +For most guys sex is about the physical contact and action. For most men the approach is....I kissed her once, now let's get the clothes off and get to the real action. ""I don't need no stinking foreplay, foreplay is for pussy's and I'm a man"" so lets start with the hardcore sex"". +And you know what, you pretty much have that exactly right....foreplay is for pussies. For the approximately 3,000,000,000 women on this planet it is absolutely essential for a great experience. +For women, the physical act of intercourse is like the last course in a seven course meal. But that last course really isn't all that good if you didn't have the first six to set it up. +For women, 85 - 90% of great sex is creating the mood, setting the atmosphere, getting mentally and physically ready to have a series of mind blowing orgasm's; and the remaining 15% is the actual physical acts (intercourse, oral, toys, etc..). +If you only want to be with a woman once, get your rocks off, and then be talked about in a bad way to all her girlfriends....and build a reputation as a poor lover, stick with the guy's way of thinking about sex. +If you want her cumming (pun intended) back for more, telling her girlfriends you are a stud in bed, and building up a reputation as being a great lover, you need to focus on the 85% and master the final 15%....especially the art of eating pussy. +Let's face it -- guys that get to the point with a woman where the physical acts of sex occur, always get their rocks off. It may not be a mind blowing experience that will make you want to come back for more, but you'll cum one way or the other. +For women, they could potentially spend a couple of hours going through the physical motions of sex, and leave absolutely frustrated, sore, pissed-off; having never come even close to having a single, tiny little orgasm...let alone the body rocking one they were hoping for when they started. +And that usually happens because we screwed up the 85% and didn't really do very well in the remaining 15% area either. The Pussy - what are we really talking about +I was quite intrigued to discover that most women have never really examined their pussies or know what they are made of. I'm sure most men are probably in the same department. Before I really start talking about eating pussy, I thought it might be a good idea to provide a little perspective so we're all talking about the same thing. +I can tell you one thing for certain. Pussies are like roses, they are absolutely beautiful, and no two are exactly the same. Sure, they have the same parts, but every pussy looks a little different and everyone acts a little different and, fortunately, everyone feels a little different. Guys, that last sentence is absolutely critical to your success to making the woman you are with experienc mind altering orgasm's. Every pussy responds to you differently. They may be subtle differences, or they could be major. +For example, one woman's clit might really need to be taken to task in-order for her to have that mind blowing orgasm while the next ladies clit is so sensitive that simply blowing on it gently will be all she can take. +Because of this, you can't let your mind wander when you are eating pussy, you have to pay attention to how your lady is acting, and reacting to what you are doing. +Now, let's talk a little bit about a pussy so that we have a common frame of reference for the rest of our discussions. +First, no two are the same and about 70% of all women have never really looked at their pussies, or have really taken enough time to look at one to know if it is beautiful or not, they just assume it is gross. +Again, there are 3,000,000,000 women on the planet and I would venture to say that if we took all the women in their sexual prime, took pictures of their pussies and ran them through a pussy identification software program, we wouldn't find any two that looked exactly the same...and I'm not sure any two would act the same under your touch. +I know all the pussies I've seen in the last 30 years were each unique in their own special way, and I've never seen any two look the same in pictures or movies. But they are all beautiful, and if clean, they all taste great!!! So, here are the key body parts that you need to know about in your journey to mastering eating pussy. +Mons -- pubis: pussy hair (although some women these days are shaved). +Hood of the clitoris: just what it sounds like, a hood of flesh that covers the clit. +Clitoris: The clit -- the absolute center of the universe when it comes to 99.9% of all mind altering orgasm's. +Labia Majora: The outer (or large) pussy lips Labia Minora: The inner pussy lips +Vaginal Opening: what most men think of as the pussy: the channel to the inside +Perineum: vulgarly called 'the taint' cause it 'taint pussy', and it 'taint ass'. +Anus: The butt hole. +With the exception of the pussy hair, every part mentioned is sensitive to the touch, and if touched properly, can leave your woman exhausted from multiple orgasms. +But, we are far ahead of ourselves. If you remember from the introduction, 85% of good sex for a woman is in the foreplay, and probably 70% of that has to happen before she's willing to take her clothes off and give you an opportunity to play with her pussy. +For the sake of this story I'm going to assume that you and your special lady friend have made it past the roadblocks and she is seriously considering making love with you. Or you have made love before and she wants you to improve your 'A' game. +Perspective - +Guys, I think we all want basically the same thing here. On the continuum from fantastic lover to uncaring and clueless, we want to be on the fantastic lover end of the scale...and our women want us to be there also. +We want to be great lovers. Women want men who are great lovers. Whether it is with that one special lady; or having a reputation among the ladies that you know what you are doing when it comes to satisfying a woman's sexual needs and desires, everyone wants to be on the fantastic end. But I have news for you, most of us aren't. +Again, I'll go back to what I said earlier. Men and women think about making love and sex differently. For men, it is sex, the end game, the actual physical act where dicks and pussies are being stroked and caressed that determines whether the woman is great in bed or not. +For women, it is making love, it is the journey, the foreplay, the anticipation, the excitement, the passion, the buildup, the seven course meal, and then the icing on the cake...everything leading up to the actual physical intercourse is as important, and in most cases more important than the actual physical act of intercourse. +The most important ingredients in deciding whether you are a great lover, an average lover, or totally clueless and uncaring lies in how well you do before the actual intercourse starts. Yes, you have to give her that mind blowing orgasm to ace the final exam and be considered a fantastic lover, but if it's just wham, bam, thank you ma'am, you'll be in the average to uncaring range on the continuum, and none of us wants to be there. +Please don't get me wrong, there are times when a woman is super horny and wants to get right to it because something has already gotten her excited...and you have to be able to read this because in these cases she's not looking for the romancing and foreplay but just wants the pure physical desires satisfied...but, from my experience, and from talking to a lot of women over the past few years, those occasions are far less frequent then guys like to hope for. +Think of your favorite sport and the professional athletes that are at the top of the game. They don't just walk out on the court or the field and start playing full speed. They often spend hours warming up so that when it is game time, they are ready. If they don't warm up properly, they have horrible games, are fatigued when everyone else is going at full speed, and often end up injured or in pain the entire game...although most women probably don't look at it like this, they have to, and want to be warmed up before making love (for most women, warm-up means romance and foreplay). +If they aren't warmed up, they usually do not enjoy the experience and you do not get invited back to play again; and eventually, you earn the reputation as a poor performer and no one invites you to play. Oh, and here is an absolutely critical point guys, almost all women think the warm up is part of the game, and you have to play if you want to have a full season!!! +Preparing to get intimate: +Making love to a woman, foreplay, eating pussy, sexual intercourse, and just fooling around are all very intimate times. You and your special lady friend are going too physically (and potentially mentally) be very close to each other for a long time. Be clean!!! +Hygiene -- +Shower before you pick her up, use soap and shampoo!! Even better, perhaps the two of you can shower together. She's going to be looking, touching, kissing, caressing, licking, and inhaling the aroma of you for a few hours - this needs to be a positive and pleasant experience. +If she runs her fingers through your hair and it's all nasty and greasy, that's a mood changer. If she goes to gently (or not so gently) play with your nipples and gags on the smell of your armpit, that's a mood changer. +If you take off your shoes or cloths and the room fills with a pungent odor, at the very best she's going to ask you to go shower, at the worst, she's going to ask you to leave. +Finally, if you are so lucky that she decides to go down and give you a little oral pleasuring and it tastes and smells like the salt mines or an outhouse in the south Texas heat....the day is over!!! Bottom line, be as clean as possible. Don't let a foul, sweaty, smelly body kill the moment for her and you. +Shave if you aren't sporting a beard. A little stubble might look sexy, but a hard bristly beard is hard on a woman's soft skin. If you scratch her every time you get near her....especially when you get down between her legs....she's not going to want your face near her.... +If you wear cologne or aftershave, or anything smelly, go very light. First, you don't want her nose to stuff up (because she can't kiss, give you oral pleasures, and stay in the mood if she's gasping for oxygen). Second, you don't want it to be so overpowering that she's focusing on the cologne and not you....if you use it, it should just be a hint that excites her senses, not a dousing that drowns her into submission. +Finally, don't put it anywhere she might be running her tongue over your body. If she ends up licking along balls and comes away with the horrible taste of aftershave or cologne, she's going to be trying to get that taste out of her mouth, and again, that means she's concentrating on something other than pleasing you or that mind blowing orgasm you want her to have. +Brush your teeth and use a gentle mouth wash. Women like to kiss; they like to chat intimately during foreplay. If the smell of your breath is gagging, or they give you a French kiss and come away with a piece of whatever it is you've recently eaten....you can pretty much kiss the night goodbye, because you won't be kissing her anymore. +And again....WOMAN LOVE TO KISS!!! It warms them up, gets the desires and juices flowing, excites them, and wins them over to the idea of going all the way with you. I would also recommend if you are going out for a few hours before the big event, that you carry along a box of Tic-tac's or something along that line to help keep your breath fresh... I have had several women in my life (over the years, not all at once) tell me they absolutely love kissing me because my breath is always so fresh.... +Believe me, if your breath smells like the ass end of a horse, the bottom of a shoe, or a butt can, it's going to make it so much more difficult for a women to actually want to be with you. If your breath is fresh and clean, that can actually help turn them on and get them excited about being physically close to you. +Bottom line -- be clean and have fresh breath....or as fresh as possible!! +Women, all the clues and tips above also apply to you!!! Generally you are all very clean and know how to get ready for an exciting evening. Before going out on a date or getting ready to have a romantic evening with your stud, I recommend a shower, and while you're in there make sure you wash your butt with warm water and a little soap. This will guarantee you'll be clean and there will be no smell or taste if your gentleman friend decides to go exploring down in that area. +Once you've washed, rinse well because when a guy runs his tongue along your body and comes away with the taste of soap, it distracts him from the moment. +Finally, you might be a little conscience, just prior to the big event, that your pussy is dirty, or salty, or smells. If your thinking those things and it's distracting you, excuse yourself for a second to go to the bathroom, and while in there, wet some toilet paper and gently dab your pussy and it will be fine. I recommend you don't rub because some of the toilet paper can stick to your pussy, and if a guy is running his tongue through there and comes away with a piece of toilet paper, that's not a good thing....even though it is clean. +Finally ladies, a healthy pussy washed with water does not smell, does not taste funny, and is not dirty. If you are drug and disease free, your pussy probably has no taste or smell at all!!!! It is a wonderful place for a guy to bury his face and have a great time. And if you have washed your butt hole with a little soap and water before going out, or in to the bedroom, your ass does not smell or have any taste either!! +So you don't have to be consciously worrying about that!! If you don't believe me, after you've cleaned up, run your finger along your ass, gently between the lips of your pussy all the way up to your clit, and then bring it up to your nose for a sniff, or to your mouth and suck on it, and you won't taste anything and you won't smell anything either!!! +Bottom line for both of you...being clean is great...being salty, smelly, or having foul breath is bad. And a clean pussy and ass do not smell and they do not have any bad tastes!!! +Getting her motor humming and hot: +Okay, you are all prepared. You now have a basic understanding of how women and men think about making love, a little knowledge of the different parts of the pussy, a little perspective on why a woman needs to build up to the big moment, and a few tips on hygiene so that you don't both go gagging from the room shortly after the clothes start coming off. +Wine her, dine her, and perhaps even take a couples massage together. Spend a few romantic hours together, focusing on her so that she feels special and appreciated. If you've been successful she will either invite you to her place, or agree to go with you someplace. +Now, let's get her in the mood to want to make love. Before we go down to that pussy and really start pushing her over the edge to mind altering orgasms, we have to make her want it. +What we want is for her to be in a state of mind where she's begging (maybe not out loud, but in her mind), praying, wishing with all her desires, that you would finish with the seduction and get down to business and start eating her pussy. +The first time you touch her pussy it should be soaking wet and eager for your touch. In order to get a pussy in that physical state, you have to pay attention to your ladies mind and the rest of her body first. +For a guy, just the thought of sex can get him rock hard in about 30 seconds. A woman's body, mind, and pussy are not like that. Women need to take some time to get in the mood, anticipate the pleasure, and get emotionally and physically in to the encounter before they can really enjoy their time with you. +Think of foreplay like cooking steaks on a charcoal grill. First you have to prep the grill and the steak. You have to get the grill ready and you have to get the steak ready before you can start cooking. Only when the grill is at the right stage of preparation can you put the steak on and cook it properly. +If you put it on too early the temperature won't be hot enough. You'll have to take a long time cooking the steak and you really risk the chance of having a poorly done steak that's not satisfying when you eat it. If you wait too late to put the steak on there isn't enough heat left in the charcoal and you either have to restock it or you continue and end up with an unsatisfying steak because there wasn't enough heat to cook it to perfection. +A woman's body is like the grill, her pussy is the savior steak, and you are the chef. You have to prepare properly (romance and foreplay), put the steak on the grill at the right moment (start pleasuring her orally when she is at her peak of anticipation), and cook it to perfection (bring her to a mind altering orgasm, or two, or three, or more). If you want your steak done right you have to take the time to prepare. +If you want a woman to really enjoy her time with you, and tell all her friends that you are great in the sack, you have to take the time to prepare. AND HERE IS AN AMAZING TIP. I have found that even if I didn't do a great job cooking that steak the first time, and it turned out to be less than a satisfying meal for the lady, if I did a great job preparing to cook it, she willing wanted me back to cook for her again. +Eventually women want a satisfying steak, but they enjoy the prep work (foreplay, to include oral pleasures) as much, if not more, than the actual cooking (intercourse). +Take a minute to picture a woman's body. Think about her from her head to her toes, front to back. Once you are done with that, think about yourself as a detective. With the exception of the tops of their heads, almost every other part of a woman's body could be a potential erogenous zone and it's your job to figure out what makes her hot, and what doesn't. Here are some of the areas that are sensitive for almost all women. +Lips -- women love to kiss. Some women will enjoy kissing for 10, 15, 20 minutes or more before moving on. So, make sure your breath is fresh and your mouth is clean. Guys, if you don't think you are a good kisser, play the mirror game. Basically, let her lead and you do what she does. +If she gives gentle kisses, you return gentle kisses. If she gently sucks your upper lip into her mouth, you suck her lower lip in to yours. When she lets go, you let go. TIP. Most women enjoy a little French kissing, but don't ram your wet slobbery tongue all the way down her throat or swirl it around like you're cleaning the inside of her mouth. Otherwise, relax and do what comes natural...or follow her lead if you aren't sure. Kissing is generally best when it is soft and tender, gradually building to passionate and intense. +Ear lobes -- women usually love to have them gently kissed, licked, and nibbled on. Gently blowing in to their ears turns them on, sticking a wet slobbery tongue in there generally turns them off. Also, before you get to the ears, while you are still kissing, softly run your fingers along the lobes of her ear and the back of her neck. This will help warm those areas up when you go to kiss, nibble, and lick them. +TIP. From this point on, talk to your lady once in a while as you are exploring her body. Tell her how wonderful her hair smells, how soft her skin is, how much you are enjoying yourself, how wonderful she tastes. Ladies, return the favor, if your guy is doing something that really turns you on, let him know. +Necks -- women generally like you to kiss, nibble, and run your tongue along their necks, especially the back of the neck just below the hair line. +At this point, if she's really into it, it's probably time for the clothes to come off. You really can't do anything else with her clothes on. Start undressing her, and if she begins to help, I recommend you start taking your clothes off while she takes hers off. I know it sounds romantic to undress each other, but most of us (men and women) aren't good at it, it takes too long, and it stalls the mood and anticipation. +Women, if you are still conscious about whether you are clean enough to let your man lick your butt and eat your pussy, this is a perfect time for you to excuse yourself to quickly run to the bathroom (supposedly to pee) and quickly clean yourself one last time. +Guys, while she's in there, this might be a good time to pop that last tick- tack in your mouth so your breath is nice and fresh. +On the other hand, if she's comfortable with her cleanliness and doesn't need to go to the bathroom, simply undress and move on with your investigation of her erogenous areas. +Breasts -- most women love having their breasts stroked, licked, sucked, nibbled on, and kissed. A little talking here about how beautiful her breasts are really helps get her excited. Breasts come in all shapes and forms, there is always something positive and wonderful to talk about. +But be honest, if you say things she knows aren't true, or knows you believe not to be true, it will kill the moment. For example, if you like big breasts, and she knows you like big breasts, but she's an 'A' or 'B' cup, don't tell her her breasts are the perfect size...she'll know you are lying. However, they probably are soft, sensitive, and taste wonderful...tell her those things. +Time for something unique. I like rolling my lady over on her stomach and working on the back of her body. I've found in talking with ladies, to include the ones I've been with, that most men don't do this and it adds a lot of excitement for them. +Lower back -- the lower back and her sides from the ribcage near her breast all the way down to her hips are usually sensitive to softly wandering hands, tongues, and lips. Again, this is another area to gently run your hands over while you are kissing, or nibbling on her ears or neck. +This really is a double bonus for you because you are exciting two areas of her at once, and she will be more sensitive when you finally get to her lower back and sides with your mouth. +Ass -- there are a lot of nerve endings in both butt cheeks and they can be very sensitive. Women usually enjoy their man running his fingers over her butt, squeezing, and maybe even a little light spanking. +They also enjoy you kissing, licking, and gently nibbling on their butt cheeks. Sometimes butt cheeks are sensitive to the slightest touch, and other times they need a little more force. When you get to this area, experiment and see what is turning her on....it could be different each time. +Here is another great opportunity to do a little talking. Tell her how beautiful her ass is, or how soft (or firm) it is, how wonderful it tastes and feels. Be honest with what comes at the moment, don't lie. If you are with a women with a big soft butt, don't tell her its firm, small, and beautiful (because that's the kind of butt you like but don't have) tell her it's soft, and sensitive, and you love kissing and licking her cheeks. +The backs of the legs and backs of the knees -- these areas are often very sensitive to lightly scraping your finger nails across them while you are kissing and playing with her butt, and then sensitive to kissing, running your tongue along them, and gentle sucking...especially the backs of the knees. +Feet -- some women's feet are extremely sensitive when they are sexually aroused. Many women love you to suck on their toes, or gently scrap your teeth across the top of each toe, the balls of their feet, or their heels. If they are really sensitive, they will be moaning and squirming as you nibble on their toes. +Remember, they are still laying on their stomach. As you nibble on their toes, they may start to push their butt up off the bed back towards their feet...almost like they are getting in to a doggy position. If she raises her butt up high enough, stop sucking on her toes and quickly lean forward and give her butt a little nibble or lick. +This will usually cause her to drop her butt back down to the bed. She won't be expecting this the first time. Go back to nibbling on her toe, if she really liked what you did, her butt will be back up in the air in a few moments so you can lick it again. +This could go on for a little while, but eventually, if this really turns her on, her butt will stay up in the air, and if her legs are spread a little bit, this is a perfect time to gently lick her butt hole and her perineum. +If she drops back down to the bed, and then brings her butt back up as you continue to chew on her toes, she's still trying to figure out if she likes it or not, so keep doing it. If she drops her butt back to the bed and doesn't come back up, it's not for her. +If one time she brings her butt back up, and keeps it up there as you are licking her anus and perineum, and kissing and nibbling on her but cheeks, she is ready and most likely wants you to eat her pussy in that position. At this point, stop with the feet and focus on the butt and pussy. More about this later. +If she dropped her but back down to the bed and doesn't come up, gently pull on her legs and roll her over on to her back. +Now start working your way back up. +Most women's calves, the fronts of their knees, and the fronts of their thighs are not very sensitive. But spread her legs apart and the inner thighs are very sensitive to gentle massage by hands, lips, and tongues. +Start near the knee on one leg, work all the way up to the pussy, but don't touch it, go over the top, kissing and licking the flat of her belly and her pubic mound, then go back down her other thigh to her knee. Work your way back up to her pussy. Unless she's dead, she should be ready for you to eat her pussy. +When you get to her pussy and ass, reassure her that you are happy to be there. Tell her how beautiful they look. Gals, you might think pussies are gross to look at, but to guys they are some of the sweetest looking things in the world. Honestly, they are. I'd rather look at pussies than roses or puppies any day. +As you start licking her pussy (I'll talk about ways to do that in a little bit) tell her how soft her skin is, how wet she is....if she is wet...and how much that turns you on. Tell her how wonderful she smells and how sweet she tastes. +She needs to know you are really happy to be down there, and that you are hot to eat her out. This is also a good time to tell her that you want her to climax, you want her to have a mind blowing orgasm...as many as she can get, while you have your lips and tongue on her pussy. The reason you are doing this is to make her cum...so reassure her that is exactly what you want her to do. +Some women are self-conscious and think a man won't like it if she cums while they are eating her out. For any ladies reading this blog, how many guys do you know that want you to give them a blow job and have you swallow. Right, nearly all of them. This is the same thing. We want you to cum, so don't hold back!!! +Whether you are on top when he is eating your pussy, or you are laying on your back, when you are ready to cum, don't hold back, let it loose....that is why we are down there in the first place. We want you to have intense, passionate, body aching orgasm while we are exploring your pussies with our mouths and tongues!!! And for all of you, a clean pussy has virtually no taste, even during and after an orgasm. +At this point, you've probably spent 10 - 30 minutes kissing, and another 15 - 20 minutes going from her earlobes to her toes and back up to her pussy. Here is a tip. If you are paying attention to your ladies reactions to your kissing and foreplay, and the things she's telling you, she should be extremely hot and wet right now. She's ready for you to go down on her, and you should be ready to eat that sweet little rose till it explodes. +Oral Pleasures +Okay guys, it is the moment of truth. You are staring at your lover's pussy and it is now time to take her to the heights of ecstasy with your lips, tongue, and fingers. As you are gently kissing the inner parts of her thighs, closest to her pussy, tell her how beautiful she is. Tell her how lovely her pussy looks. Tell her how excited you are about being so close to her and how much you are going to enjoy kissing and making love to her pussy with your mouth. +Tell her how sweet she smells and how erotic and exciting that is to you. Tell her to relax and get lost in the moment. Tell her to let her body take over and enjoy this moment to its fullest. These things will reassure her that you really want to eat her pussy, and that she is clean and beautiful and you want her to cum when she's ready. +There are five very sensitive areas here, six if you count the anus. If you remember from the earlier picture you have the clitoris and the clitoral hood at the top, the inner lips, the outer lips, the vaginal opening, and the perineum. +The clit is by far the most sensitive right now, so don't go directly for it as you begin eating her pussy. You've spent the past 20 -- 40 minutes getting her body and pussy ready for this moment, now you need to spend a few minutes getting her clit ready. +For the purposes of this story, let's assume your lady is lying on her back, stretched out on the bed and totally comfortable. If she has her knees up in the air, and her feet planted on the bed on either side of your shoulders, you might want to consider gently reaching under her butt cheeks, lifting her off the bed a little and pushing slightly towards her body so that her anus comes in to view. +Gently blow on it, and give it several soft and sensual licks. Believe me, if she enjoys this she will let you know, and if she doesn't she'll push down with her hips so that her butt is back on the bed and you can't get to her anus. If she washed with water and a mild soap, there will be no smell and not taste....for you it will be very much like sucking on one of her nipples. +For her, there will be a direct line of nerves running straight from her butt hole to her brain and her clit....both increasing her pleasure and anticipation. If she is enjoying it, stay there for a minute or two gently licking her anus, her perineum, and nibbling on her butt cheeks. If she's pushed her butt back down on the bed and won't come back up don't try to force her back up, move on to other areas. +Next move on to her outer pussy lips and the area between her thighs and inner pussy lips. Either flatten your tongue, or make it stiff like a point and apply a little bit of pressure. Don't touch her pussy or her clitoris yet. Lick this area and her outer pussy lips from perineum up to where you are almost touching her clitoris. +When you get to the top, move over her clit without touching it and blow on it gently. Move your head back down and repeat this long lick on the other side of her leg. Her reactions should tell you whether she likes this or not...if it's making her hotter, stay at it for a minute or two, staying away from the inner lips and clit, but gently blowing on them after each lick. Tell her how much you are enjoying this and you can't wait to open her pussy and enjoy her wonderful juices. +Now it is time to go in. Before you start, reach one of your arms around her leg, put a couple of fingers on her pubic mound a ½ inch or so from her clit and gently pull backwards exposing her clit to the fresh air. +If she's really hot, and her clit is big enough, it may already be outside the hood, but this action and the slight pressure will help increase her excitement even more. Remember, the clit is probably still super sensitive so you have to explore gently. +Start down at the perineum again, make sure your tongue is nice and moist, flatten it against her perineum and then gently and slowly take a long lick from her perineum all the way up and over her clitoris. This should take you about 4 or 5 seconds to get from the bottom of her pussy to the top....nice and slow. +When you go over her clit, watch her reaction, if she jumps, it's still very sensitive and your next several licks should be very gentle when you pass over her clit - till she can take the stimulation. When her clit is this sensitive, it can actually cause pain, not pleasure, so watch closely. +Go back down and start again, this time, as you pass from perineum to vaginal opening, push your tongue inside her a little and taste her moisture and see how hot and wet she is. This should be a really exciting time for you, and as you enter her (only slightly) with your tongue, let out a low moan like you've just bitten into the sweetest dessert in the world. +This will really help her confidence soar and get her even hotter. Once you've gone over top of the clit, before you start going back down for your next lick, tell her how wonderful she is and how delicious her pussy tastes, and how hot it is making you. +All in all, take 8 -- 10 of these long slow licks and really enjoy the reaction and taste. After 8 - 10 long slow licks her clit should be accustomed to the stimulation and ready for more. Again, as you are doing this, moan a little like you would when taking the first bites of a great steak. +Next, softly spread her inner pussy lips apart, or ask her to do it, and then gently push your tongue in and out of her. About 85% of all the nerve endings in a woman's pussy are in the first one or two inches of entering the vaginal opening, so you don't have to push in too far. +As long as she's enjoying this, keep tongue fucking her. Women can and do climax while being tongue fucked. If you are lucky, this will happen, if not, after a few minutes it is time to focus your attention on her clitoris. +Just before you move on to the clit, slide two fingers (index and middle are the easiest) into her pussy. Don't stick your fingers in there dry though, anything dry can cause pain, not pleasure. +Either stick them in your mouth and get them nice and wet, or put them up to your ladies mouth and let her suck on them and get them nice and wet. Once they are wet, slowly push them in to her pussy as far as you can comfortably go. +I prefer going in with my hand facing down, and then twisting as I'm entering so that by the time my fingers are all the way in my palm is facing up. Slowly pull your fingers all the way back out. If she is watching you, stick one in your mouth and suck her pussy juices off your finger....don't worry there is no taste, just moisture on your finger. +Tell her how delicious it is, and offer her the other finger to suck on if she wants. Some women will really be turned on by this and go for it, others won't want to do it....go with the flow. +Ladies, if you've never tasted your pussy juices before, this might be an excellent time....you'll see, there is no taste; it's just warm and wet. If she doesn't want to taste herself, bring your hand back, stick both fingers in your mouth to get them nice and moist again and push them slowly back in to her pussy. +When you are all the way in, your palm should be face up. Feel around for a spot on the top of her inner pussy, about a finger length in, that feels a little rougher than the rest of her pussy (almost like a washboard). If there is a G-spot, this is where it will be located. Stimulating this area on the inside while sucking on her pussy and clit on the outside should double her pleasure. +With your other arm reach around her leg again, put your hand in her pussy hair (or where it would be if she's shaven) and pull her clitoral hood back and expose her clitoris. +If you can picture this in your mind, you are now very close to her clit with your mouth, you have two fingers deep in her pussy, and you have a thumb and two other fingers with nothing to do. Open that part of your hand up and cradle your chin in-between your thumb on one side and your pinky and ring finger on the other side. +This has two distinct advantages. One, it will help you hold up your head and rest your neck so that you can eat her pussy longer. Second, the back side of your hand is touching her inner thighs, not your scraggly bearded face. +The entire area around the pussy is sensitive to the touch, and if you haven't shaved in a couple hours there is a little bit of stubble on your face that will probably feel like rough coarse sand paper on the inside of her thighs...by holding your chin like this, you don't have to worry about scratching her with your stubble, and she can concentrate on getting off. +So you have your chin cradled between your thumb and fingers, protecting her thighs and giving you some support to hold up your neck. You have two fingers buried deep in her pussy, hopefully touching her G-spot. And, you have your other hand gently pressing on her Mons Pubis and pulling her hood back exposing her clit. Now it's time to begin the real fun. Serious Business - bringing on the orgasm: +Now it's time to get down to serious business and bring your lady to that gut wrenching orgasm she's hoping for. If you still have your arm wrapped around her leg, place your fingers around the clitoral hood and pull it out of the way so that you can make direct contact with her clit. Expose that little puppy to the fresh air. +Keep your arm wrapped around her leg as you start licking and sucking on her clit and be prepared to put her leg into a gentle vice grip if needed. Once you really start licking her clit, some women start squirming around. +They love the sensation, but want to escape from it at the same time because it can be so intense. If you aren't hanging on for dear life she very well could pull away from you...and you definitely don't want that to happen at the wrong time....like just before she is going to cum. +When you first start licking her clit, vary the pressure, vary the direction, vary the intensity of what you are doing and watch her reactions. Focus more on the things that make her squirm and moan, and less on motions that don't elicit a visible or audible response. +Ladies, give your guy a response when something feels good so he knows what's working and what's not. Think of it as being a teacher, you want him to learn what really turns you on, you don't want him guessing and getting it wrong. +Also, don't fake it, unless you've already made up your mind you aren't going to see him again and you just want to get it over with. Guys remember! If you fake it, they'll think they did a great job. The next time if it seems like you aren't enjoying yourself they'll go back to what they think works, and you've created a viscous cycle where the guy thinks he's doing everything you like and you are continuously faking it and getting more and more frustrated. +Guys, there are all kinds of options here so let your mind wander on what you are doing, but stay focused on her reactions. She doesn't want you all over the map so there must be some consistency, but she wants a bit of variety at the same time so it doesn't get boring. +You have two goals here. First you want to stimulate her mind so that she gets more and more excited. Second, you want to really start heating her up and get the motor running. +Here are some examples of things you can try. Vertical licks; licking from the bottom of her clit to the top. Horizontal licks; licking from side to side across her clit. Lick in a circular motion around her clit. Some girls like you to go clockwise, others like you to go counter-clockwise - try both and see what works. +With each lick you can either keep your tongue on her clit as you go back to the starting position or you can lift your tongue away so that there are brief moments with no stimulation to the clit on each lick. +You can lick fast, or you can lick slowly, you can bear down with some pressure, or you can keep the contact of your tongue on her clit feathery light. +If you want, you can spell out letters and words....like ""I love eating your pussy,' or 'this is so hot,' or 'you taste great,' or 'I want you to cum for me.' +As you are doing this, after you've spelled out the phrase, back off for a ½ second or so, and tell your lady what you just wrote with your tongue on her clit. This will let her know you are enjoying what you are doing, and that will increase her excitement. +Remember, most of making love for a woman is the mental aspect and if she knows you are having a good time, she can relax and have a good time too. However, don't ask her to try and guess what you are spelling. +You want her mind, body, soul, and entire being concentrating on the pleasures she is feeling and not the words you are writing with your tongue. +After a few minutes of licking her pussy, gently wrap your lips around her clit, clitoral hood, and the upper portion of her inner lips and suck them into your mouth. Gently suck on them, moaning as you do it, and if you have the talent, continue to stimulate her clit with your tongue. +Make sure never to bite her, or suck her in so far that any of these really sensitive parts scrape across your teeth. That could cause pain and she'll lose her concentration. +All the while you are doing this, licking her pussy to start, and then sucking on her clit later on, gently glide those two fingers you have in her pussy back and forth. As you do that, make sure your fingers rub against that rough area (covering the G-spot) on the inside of her pussy. +This might take a little practice, because, remember, the thumb and other two fingers of that hand are cradling your chin so you don't scrape her with your whiskers, and you have some support to help relieve the strain on your neck. +If you've prepared everything properly, somewhere between about 3 -- 15 minutes after you started licking your sweeties' clit, she should be ready for her first orgasm. Generally there are subconscious and physical clues your lady friend will be sending out letting you know that she is close. +She may be moving her hips in a regular rhythm now, pushing up in to your face. She could be moaning and whispering something like 'that's it, don't stop,' or 'that feels so good.' +She may have moved one or both of her hands to your head where she could be gently running her fingers through your hair, or reaching around back and pulling you in to her pussy. +If her hands aren't on your head or near her pussy, she may be playing with her breasts or pulling her nipples. She could be grabbing on to the head board with one hand while clutching the side of the bed or sheets with the other. Sometimes when she's getting really close she may move one hand down near her pussy and start digging into her thigh like she's kneading bread. +One other sign that she is getting close. If, when you started licking on her clit it is standing out proud and strong, but as you work on it, at some point it starts to disappear....and she's still moaning and groaning and showing all the signs that she's really loving it.... +that's the little clit bitch trying to trick you into thinking you're doing something wrong!!! Unlike men, who get harder and stiffer the closer they get to orgasm, a women's clit does the opposite. It runs back inside and gets ready to throw a party. +Whatever you are doing when these signs happen, DON'T STOP!!! At this point, variety is not a good thing. Keep doing exactly the same thing. If you can keep it up for another 1 -- 2 minutes your lady friend should reach her peak and have an orgasm. +There are two other thing you might want to try at this point...just before the orgasm. If she is in a regular rhythm, or holding your head to her pussy with her hands to where you think she won't jerk away and lose the contact with your lips and tongue, you can let go of that vice grip you have around her one leg and use that free hand to reach up and play with her breasts and nipples. +If she's already playing with her own breast, the other option is to let go of that vice grip, suck on your index finger and gently insert it into your ladies butt hole and gently twirl it around....no more than up to the first knuckle. Go slow when you first start to insert your finger in to her anus, some women really love it, and others want nothing to do with it. +Watch her reactions, if she sends you some kind of signal to stop, stop and go play with her nipples. Again, if she is playing with her nipples, softly run your free hand over her belly or across her ribs...just another added sensation to intensify her pleasure. +If however the signal is a positive one, keep your finger in there and gently move it in and out...or around in circles...whatever is getting the best reaction. One note of caution though, if you do stick your finger up your ladies bottom, once you are done don't use that finger again to play with her pussy because it could lead to an infection. +Once she starts cumming, move your hand that is not playing with her butthole back to that leg lock again because she's probably not going to stay still any longer but start bucking and jerking around. While this is happening, keep doing whatever it is you are doing for as long as she can handle it. +She'll probably clamp her legs on to your head, and if she's got her hands behind your head she may pull you in even further as she grinds her hips up in to your face. Ladies, I ask a favor here. +As you do this, try to stay focused enough that you don't cut off all your guys means of getting oxygen. If he can't breathe, he won't be able to keep sucking on your pussy and at this point you don't want him to stop. +Women's orgasms tend to vary in length from a few seconds to several seconds. Keep doing what you are doing while she's cumming, do not stop. +Think of your own orgasms. Imagine how you would feel if a woman had her hand wrapped around your shaft and was stroking you back and forth at the same time she was going down on you, and just as you started to cum she pulled you out of her mouth and stopped stroking your shaft...how would that feel??? Horrible right, you want her to keep going all the way through the orgasm and maybe a little more. +A woman is the same way....keep going. +She'll let you know when it is time to stop. She may put her hands on your forehead to try and push your head back off her pussy, tell you to stop, or collapse in temporary exhaustion. +Now is the time to stop. Let go of her clit at this point because she's either lost all sensation, or it's gotten super sensitive again and needs a break. Pull your fingers out of her pussy, and at this point kiss her inner thighs, lick your tongue in that V space between her legs and her outer pussy lips. +Wrap both your arms around her legs and gently rub your hands over her belly. Tell her how wonderful this moment is for you and how happy you are that she came. Keep this up for a minute or two, and then lick her pussy from perineum to clitoral hood. If she doesn't jump from the shock of your tongue gently passing over her clit, she is ready to start round two. +Give her several more long slow licks, wet your two fingers and slide them back in her pussy, and start tongue massaging that clitoris again. Second and subsequent orgasms should come much quicker than the first, often in half the time. +Now your goal is to see how many you can make her have. Enjoy it down there!!!! At some point she will be exhausted and ask you to stop.....take a 5 -- 10 minute break. While you're on break, kiss her, hug her, gently run your hands over her soft skin and tell her how wonderful she is and what a great time you are having. At some point she will recover her strength, and then it is time for intercourse. +That's it; hopefully you have successfully brought your lady to multiple orgasms and had a great time yourself. I only talked about giving her oral pleasure while she is lying on her back, but there are many variations. +You can lie on your back and she can sit over your face. There are two general variations to this. One she is facing you so as you look up you can see her belly, breasts, and face. Or, the second option she is facing the other direction and you see her butt and back. +This is a really good position if she enjoys you licking her anus because you can play with that for awhile before you get down to serious business. Ladies, you have to be careful with this one because it is so easy for you to cover both your guys' mouth and nose, and if he can't breathe, he can't pleasure you. +Another position is where you lady friend is on all fours (the doggy position if you were going to have intercourse) and you kneel down behind her and pleasure her orally. This is also a great position if you want to do it on the stairs....or the kitchen countertop. +A favorite of many people is the good old 69...but this is often only good for warming you both up for intercourse, because if you are both concentrating on orally pleasing your other half, it is much harder to have an orgasm of your own....although not impossible. +Finally, figure out what works for both of you and enjoy yourselves. Guys, you virtually always get your orgasms, take care of your ladies needs before you have you take care of your own and she'll most likely invite you back for seconds..." +693,Oral Sex & a Woman's...,LaceySheets,How To,2001-03-12,2001-03-12,2022-01-04 08:37:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/oral-sex-and-a-womans,"Using a hair scrunchie, any woman can do amazing oral.","['Oral Sex', ""Oral Sex & A Woman'S...""]",4.01,"**Oral Sex & a Woman's Ubiquitous Hair Ribbon** + _The Wildest Night of Your Life!

Please get your significant other to read this; it is a surprise for you and your reading it will only ruin the sensuous gift in store for you! +Hey, guys, stop now if you're still reading! +Okay, are we alone? Here's what you are going to do to drive your man into ecstasy: +First, the preparations. Rummage through your hair scrunchies and find the one that is rather soft and a bit long or with a lot of 'give' or buy a new one just for this. Leather ones are probably out as are any ones with clips or any metal edges. Ouch!! +Next, find a stocking or one half pair of pantyhose or a scarf to use as a blindfold. It needn't be sexy looking; it's only to make the pleasure more intense and also to keep him from trying to figure out what the heck you're doing down there to his delicate privates! +Tasty massage oils are optional. If you really don't like fellatio that much, a tasty lubricant can definitely make this more palatable for you. You may even learn to enjoy it and you know that would be such a turn-on for him. +Get ready for bed. Put on the blindfold for him and lead him to the bed. Help him get in and get comfy. +He'll probably keep asking what you're doing; just keep reassuring him that you have a pleasant surprise for him. +Next, take a soft washcloth and, using warm water placed in a small container. Wet the towel and wring out completely. Gently pick up his penis and stroke toward his body and underneath his testicles. If he protests that he just had a shower, tell him you're just wiping away any loose hairs because you want nothing in the way. +Set the water aside. +Take the scrunchie and ever-so-gently wrap it, starting with placing it VERY loosely around the testicles and then back up to the top of the shaft, looping the scrunchie until it is fastened securely around his testicles and his, by now, hardening penis. +This would be the time to put some drops of flavoured lubricant; let two or three drops trickle from the top to the bottom and underneath. +Taking his penis into your mouth, kiss, lick and suck very, very gently, paying attention to his testicles also. The more blood that gets engorged and is somewhat bound by your hair accessory (you'll never look at that thing the same again, will you? +Keep alternating the movements, stopping to spend extra time on the places that you know are super-sensitive for him. Or ask--not while you're doing this, but during a sex talk at a later date. +Finally, don't forget to push up on the perineum; the feeling is the equivalent of our G-spot. To find it, put your hand behind his shaft and testicles. There will be an area that runs from there back to his anus. +The spot you are looking for is midway between the two areas described. Don't be worried you'll not find it or you won't do it right. Practice makes perfect ---and, if he can still talk, he might tell you---or show you. +So you've gotten to the middle part. Now press up and back firmly. No response? Try varying the area a bit. It's really not that big an area so it's pretty much a 'you can't miss it thing.' Take note of where he groans with pleasure---and with pain and, of course, avoid the latter....unless..... +Massaging the perineum is intense even during regular sex; his orgasms will be more intense just as ours are when the clitoris is stroked in just the right way. +Tell yourself beforehand, that he may not be able to prevent ejaculation this way, so don't be disappointed if there is no penetration that time, depending on his rebound time. +If you have to have penetration, and he may agree, stop when you know you need to stop. You probably know when this is better than he does. If this is the third date, you probably won't know---and shame on you for 'doing it' too soon. Yes, the three date rule has been moved ahead to allow more time to get to know each other. +Afterwards, untie the blindfold and let him compliment you, your taste, your sexiness, your everything.

For the purpose of simplicity, I'll be using ""giver, receiver, and their"" instead of bothering with ""he, she, his, hers"". And for the sake of readability, I'll try and use short and to the point paragraphs. Now then, being a guy myself, I'll start with guy's receiving. +Just to make this seem a little more official than something written in the wee hours of the morning by a guy in a recliner, I'll go over a bit of the history of fellatio; in Ancient Greece, it was called ""playing the flute"" and the Kama Sutra (a book I'm sure most committed couples have a copy of stashed away somewhere the kiddies won't find it) has a chapter on it titled Oparishtaka, or ""mouth congress"". Aside from the religious and social stigma associated with the act, it is generally seen as a dominate act because the giver is most often on their knees, or otherwise in a position below the receiver, unless engaged in the 69 position with the giver on top, on their side or some other weird, and possibly awkward, position. However, and this case is especially true with fellatio, the receiver is placing their penis into an area filled with teeth that could bite, shear, and otherwise maim the tender flesh should the giver be filled with mal-intent (desire to harm, in other words). +Basically, it is dominant because the receiver is usually in a position above the giver, but also submissive because of the serious harm that can come to the receiver if the giver wants. Now then, onto the bulk of reasons I've heard against fellatio, along with tips for the guys at the end. +• It's disgusting and dirty: A very sound argument if your man doesn't clean up, but if he does, it's actually rather clean so long as he doesn't blow a fart in your face, which I don't think he'd ever do on account of how easily you could wrap your hands around his nuts and squeeze really hard. Not to mention, that'd be the one thing that would prevent him from ever getting head again. (Forgive the poor attempt at humor; I don't want this turn to into something that sounds like it was ripped from a textbook) +• It's so hairy: Nothing ruins the mood, for both parties, than having to stop to pluck pubic hair from your teeth. Nobody likes the feeling of hair in their mouth and knowing it came from their crotch is even worse, especially considering it's some of the coarsest hair on the human body. +• It's against my religion: Yes, I actually heard of a girl using this one to weasel her way after giving a blowjob. Now, I'd rather not get into this one on account of how much hate mail I used to get just for associating with LaVeyan Satanism (not the devil worshipping kind, but nobody stops to think about that; they see the word Satan and automatically assume you worship the figure, but this isn't a theological debate), but I will touch on it. From what I remember, she was more than willing to let her boyfriend finger her and go down on her, but a friendly hand job was all he ever got in return, all because she'd been raised Christian. Now, normally, I have nothing wrong with such a reason because it's perfectly reasonably, even if I don't agree with it (I'm a supporter of religious equality and freedom, just so you know), but not the way she used it. If you're a religious person and abhor the thought of going down on a guy, especially a teenaged one, because the Bible, Torah, or Qur'an forbids it, fine, but don't get a guy's hopes up by letting him go down on you! I say this because teenaged guys especially believe that ""to give is to get""; in other words, if they go down on you, they're ""returning the favor"" ahead of time, no pun intended. I'll wrap this one up before I contradict myself by making it too long. +• I don't like the taste of semen: Understandable, but not an excuse in my books. For the giver, there're three choices of what to do at the climax: 1) Swallow; it's not as bad as it seems as generally guys tend to thrust up when they orgasm, so the head of their penis is usually towards the back of your throat will only hit the very back of your tongue where there are fewer taste buds. 2) The pornographic ""cumshot""; basically letting him ejaculate on your face, chest, stomach, or wherever else. Semen washes off so easily that wiping down with a dry washcloth cleans all or most of it up, so it's not like it is hot lava that's going to incinerate the flesh from your bones. 3) Spit; any guy will tell you that this is their least favorite option; it can also be the worst. If he comes in your mouth, but you don't want to swallow, don't go running off to the bathroom as though you have battery acid in your mouth; not only is this a major mood killer, he'll feel horrible because he'll think he pressured you into it. There is a better way to go about it: if you don't want to swallow, but you don't want him to try and coat your body with his come, let him come in your mouth and then, while staring directly into his eyes, let it dribble out of your mouth onto his dick; I guarantee you that it'll drive him wild! No matter which option you choose, really, so long as you don't do the predictable and run to the bathroom, all are really erotic as guys are very visual beings. +• My mouth gets too tired: Alright, I'll give you that one, but think of it another way; if you rest a little to relax your jaw some while sensually stroking him, it'll prolong his orgasm, making it that much more enjoyable on his part and he'll praise you for it, making it a little better for both parties. So, in actuality, your mouth getting tired is a good thing; that's also assuming the blowjob is the main course instead of the opening act. Not all blowjobs have to end in ejaculation, after all. +That covers most of the major reasons I can think of at the moment, but I'm sure there are many, many more to be used. As far as the swallowing of semen goes, while many may not enjoy the taste, there are ways around that, which I'll go into in a moment; first, a medical reason for it directed at the ladies: It has been suggested, and backed by studies, that ingesting semen reduces the chances for preeclampsia, a life threatening disease that occasionally arises in pregnancy. It's been shown that this risk is significantly reduced between couples who frequently engage in oral sex ending in the swallowing of semen and almost non-existent in couples who do so regularly. Now, onto the ways you guys can make the semen taste better for our significant other so that they won't be so reluctant to give head regularly. An all acidic diet, i.e. coffee, cigarettes, and junk food, will make it taste horrible to the pallet, whereas rather sweet tasting things, such as honey, fruits and vegetables, or even a flavored, edible lube coated on either the penis of the receiver or inside the giver's mouth/tongue are able to change the taste significantly, or at least cover up the taste, particularly in the case of someone who likes their junk food and asks for a blowjob at a random time, such as at the movies, driving in the car, etc. Most importantly, don't forget how you feel towards the person as your mind can greatly overcome these things; I once heard from a man who loved Sake (Japanese rice wine for those unfamiliar with it) that ""if Sake tastes bad, something's wrong with you"". Essentially, it's the same concept; if you really love the person, you may not even notice the taste, whereas if you're just doing it because they asked you and you feel it's your duty, it's going to taste as though someone poured rancid, liquefied cow manure down your throat (gotta love my analogies, don't ya?). +Now, I think some tips and tricks of the trade are in order before I move on to the second half of this piece. The most important thing about this is to remember just two things: first, don't ever do anything you don't want to (I don't want to sound cruel, but, unless you have some super lover or a slave, don't expect reciprocation if you don't), and second, be creative! Nothing is more of a turn-off to guys than their lover doing something they don't seem to want to and doing it the same way you have for as long as he can remember. +1) Unless you're going for a quickie or in a public place where you could be caught at any moment, start slow! Start off by lightly stroking his shaft and rubbing the head of his dick with your thumb. This will work well if he's slow to arouse physically (spirit is willing, but the body takes a little coaxing, basically) without tiring yourself out and wasting your tricks early. Kiss him on the lips, the throat, the chest, the stomach; more or less just progress your way down his body and don't be afraid to stop off to tease something along the way. It'll all lead up to a better orgasm. +2) Don't just start off like a vacuum on high power (refer back to the beginning of #1 for the exception) when you finally do get to his erection. Take it in your hand and stroke it up and down then push it against his stomach and lick the underside; it's one of the most sensitive areas of the shaft. Flick your tongue across the head before taking him all the way in; again, be creative, start it off a different way every now and then. +3) Remember to change the position of your head while you're doing the actual sucking. Not only does this give him a different angle to watch from, but it will also alter the sensations he's receiving; if you do what has been called the ""chipmunk,"" where you angle his dick so that it hits your cheek and pokes out, it not only gives the illusion that his dick is too big for your mouth (which every guy will love!), it can also simulate the feel of deep throating without actually doing so; not mention, if you switch from the left to the right rapidly and you have long hair, he'll adore the way your hair flips from side to side. +4) Use your hands! Some guys may enjoy the feeling of only your mouth, but most love the double assault when you stroke his shaft and suck on his head. It's another technique that subtly makes him think his dick his larger because it gives him the impression that it's so big you have to use your hand and your mouth just to take hold of it all. 4.5) Not necessarily its own tip, as I see it as a sub-tip to #4: For the girls, if you have the time and place (in other words, somewhere you shouldn't be disturbed for a good amount of time), use your breasts! Every guy will enjoy the feeling of having his dick enveloped in the soft, but firm, and warm flesh of your breasts! If done right, he can even pinch your nipples or squeeze your breasts for you while you're doing it to free up your hands (I'll go into why next tip); not to mention, if you really do it right, he should be able to feel your racing heartbeat, which will act as a sort of vibration against his cock. But don't forget to use your tongue on the tip while you do! +5) This one's mainly for the girls, but can be applied to the guys, as well. In the last tip, I mentioned tit fucking and how to free up your hands, girls; he can be the one to squeeze your breasts, girls, to allow you to attend to yourself. Again, guys are visual and if they see that you're touching yourself while sucking on his dick, he'll absolutely love it because it says to him that you're enjoying it as much as he is. If you really want to drive him crazy, when you get yourself nice and wet, ladies, get some of that moisture onto your fingers and let him suck on your fingers; it's really erotic and really shows you're enjoying yourself. You can also stick a finger in his ass to massage the prostate if you like, but you cannot, absolutely not, do this out of nowhere (unless you know beforehand that he enjoys it)! If he isn't into that sort of thing, not only may you encounter that which you'd rather avoid, you could also ruin not only the mood, but your relationship as well in the process. Some guys are homophobic without realizing it because of how they were brought up; anal play is associate with gay men and to them, that's something to abhor and avoid (I'm just guessing here, folks; I have no idea what guys like that think), so if you're going to do that, talk about it first to make sure he's alright with it. +6) Ever hear of a hummer? And no, I'm not talking about those gas guzzling monsters you see pricks driving on the highway. Basically, you hold his cock in your mouth (as much of it as you can comfortably fit) and hum low in your throat. Keep it to simple tones such as ascending or descending; don't go humming some song you heard on the radio; guys, believe it or not, are auditory as much as visual, so they'd become preoccupied with figuring out which song it is. Now, if you have mood music playing, it's perfectly acceptable to hum to the beat of that music because he doesn't have to worry about where it's from and it shows initiative. +7) This is the last tip I can really think of at the moment (it's been a long while since I woke up and I'm running on fumes while writing this), but unless it's dark (such as a movie theater), position prevents it (such as driving down the highway), or you're really getting into it and acting like a porn star just gobbling his cock as though it's a tasty treat, maintain eye contact! I cannot stress this enough! Look up into his eyes with a loving or lustful expression and he'll go crazy. Or if you really want to drive him wild, wait until that last moment when he's ready to pop and give him a ""give it to me, big boy"" look and I can almost guarantee you he'll remember that moment for the rest of his life. +As a closing statement (What am I? A lawyer?), I have a few words for first time cocksuckers. Make sure you're ready to give head; if you're not, you won't give it your all and neither of you will enjoy it, you probably won't want it again and at best, he'll be reluctant to ask for it again, and at the very worst (worst case scenario only), he'll start to hang out with that young blonde in accounting who likes lollipops, if you get my drift. My final little tip/trick that's really self explanatory, but only works if you live together (so much so that it doesn't need to be with the rest; it also doesn't help that it was just an after thought and I'm lazy at the moment) is that if he calls you and tells you he's on his way home from work and he's had a bad day, just wait for him at the door, on your knees, in the sluttiest outfit you can throw together (or go naked if you want) and the moment he walks through the door, drop his drawers and go to town on his dick. He'll forget all about that bad day at work and focus only on slamming that door shut. +CUNNILINGUS -- The Art of Licking Pussy +You'll have to forgive the rather crude title, but what the hell? I'm not really trying to impress anyone here. Obviously, this one's mostly for the ladies and will probably be a little less detailed than the previous section due to only second-hand experience on the topic (it's rather difficult experiencing the feelings of having a pussy licked when you don't have one and it's impossible to even get a grasp on it when all you get is ""that felt good"" or ""that was great"" from my partners), but I'm going to give it the old college try. As far as the two forms of oral sex, it is not as culturally stigmatized as fellatio; in fact it is rather revered, at least in Chinese Taoism where the goal is to achieve immortality. It says that we lose our vitality through the loss of semen, vaginal secretions, and other bodily fluids (such as blood, obviously), while conversely, the retention or ingestion of the vaginal fluids, both men and women can conserve or replenish their Chi (Life energy for those unfamiliar with the term, which would, in all honesty, surprise me); much better than fellatio which is considered disgusting and slutty by many factions throughout history. In addition, most of the reasons against lovers performing it are more or less the same as for those against fellatio, such as the following: +• It's disgusting and dirty: again, not much of a problem if your lover cleans up, which is recommended beforehand for both sexes to avoid infections, which is one of the more practical reasons. (However, I've never actually heard of a guy really saying this; it's mostly used by women in hentai (animated pornography). +• It's so hairy: again, this isn't much of a problem if you trim or shave. Advice to women in straight relationships (I can't speak for those in a lesbian relationship) is to find out what turns your man on more; for instance, most men either prefer a trim that's in the vague shape of something (or even just so that it's away from the labia and the clitoris) like what's called the ""landing strip"" (they find it appealing because it looks like it's guiding their cock in) or fully shaved (my preference, though I'm not picky if she wants to take a little extra time to style the little hair that remains; it really shows that she cares about her appearance for her lover). +• The taste is horrible: I've heard it countless times, even from a friend of mine, and it's occurred to me that this one is most closely related to cleanliness, mostly because he was telling me that after a weekend of almost non-stop sex and cream pies (ejaculating into a woman's vagina or anus without a condom) with his then girlfriend, he went to go down on her and said that it was like a swallow in flight: down and right back up, because the smell and taste made him gag. +Seeing as how I don't need to bother on that really long and annoying paragraph about semen ingestion, I'll go to the tips for the girls. Personally, girls, I enjoy giving just as much as getting when it comes to oral (at the risk of sounding corny, you could say I have an oral fixation), but most guys don't. Speaking from a guy's point of view (though it will work for anyone), you only need a few simple tips: ""wash, rinse, repeat"". Throughout the course of your day, you will get sweaty and filthy and feel... Yucky, for lack of a better term; make no mistake about that. If you have some time to yourself before your lover gets home, take a long, sensual bath to get yourself in the mood; masturbate until you're close to orgasm if you want to give yourself that itch that your lover needs to scratch. I would put in what to do after that, but that belongs in the tricks... I already covered shaving, trimming, but I'll mention it again, even if it's just for the sake that it shows you care about your intimate appearance. And now! The tricks of the trade: +1) Now for what I was going to mention earlier: after that bath, ladies, put on something sexy or put on just an apron and heels (guys in particular love this one, especially when they least expect it; it's called Hadaka/Naked Apron in Japan, where it's very popular). Put an invitation near the door with their name on where you know they'll see it saying something like ""dinner is in the kitchen"" (cheesy, I know, but people are curious by nature and will investigate). Then just sit on the table with your legs spread and a little card that is pointing to your pussy that says ""dinner"" on it. I can almost guarantee they'll drop whatever they're doing and forget whether they had a bad day or most everything else. Or, if you have kids, wait in the bedroom and tell the kids that you want to see your lover in the bedroom as soon as they walk in the door. +2) That last trick was more for the one about to receive; here's one for the giver that follows much of the same principles as those for fellatio: Don't just rush in (unless of course she surprises you with that last little trick) and overwhelm her, unless she's just in the mood for a ""wham, bam, thank you ma'am."" Start out slow and sensual, kissing, nibbling and sucking her lips, her neck, her throat, earlobes, etc. then work your way down. +3) Remember that a woman's body is more or less made up of nothing but erogenous zones (for those who don't know what those are... Well, I'm sad to say but you fail as a lover; I kid, I kid, of course. They're pleasure centers on the body like the nipples and clitoris, just to name the ones people know the most), so avoid the larger ones. Go for the smaller or more overlooked ones such as the back of the knees; kissing her stomach while massaging the back of her knee is a sure fire way to get most women worked up, or kissing her neck while massaging the small of her back. Before you get to the main course, spend a little time on each nipple, making sure they're both fully erect. A good method I have found before going down (in more ways than one) is to suck and nibble each of her nipples in turn, kneading her other breast with one hand while massaging her scalp, another erogenous zone, with your free hand (this means more pleasure overall for her, even though more focused attention would intensify the sensation). +4) When her nipples are fully erect and you're ready to move on, blow air onto her nipples; the air blowing against her wet nipples will send a shiver down her spine and she'll love you for it. After that, you should move back to her lips for a moment (this goes for guys especially, so that she doesn't think she's just a piece of ass to you) before kissing your way down her throat, between her breasts, across her stomach, but stop! Don't go to the main course just yet; wait until she's practically begging for it. She may hate you in the short term, but when she finally orgasms, she'll bask in its glow for some time to come. +5) If you want to lighten the mood a little so as to reassure her she's not just a piece of ass, give her a short, but sweet foot massage, playfully tickling the bottoms of her feet, then massage her ankles in turn, her lower legs, her knees (including the backs; this is especially good if she has bad/stressed knees brought on by an old injury or playing sports), her thighs, and her hips; it mixes the sensual with the sexual, the naughty with the nice, innocent with the slutty, etc. etc. In addition to easing some of her stress, it will relax her in a different manner, making her feel more comfortable about herself and will make her feel loved because of the extra attention. With one finger and a feather light touch (may take some time to perfect, but it's oh, so worth it), slowly run a finger along her slit; make it just enough pressure so that she can barely feel it, but light enough to leave her wanting more. Nine times out of ten, she'll buck against you trying to increase the pressure. +6) Starting at the ankles (unless you have a foot fetish), repeat the last trick, this time with your lips and your tongue. Kiss all the way up one leg while massaging the other until you get to her thighs. This time, run that finger against her again and when she least expects it (since she's gotten the finger twice, no pun intended, she'll be expecting it again), use that same pressure against her slit with your tongue; add in a quick kiss to her clitoris if you want. Then repeat on the other leg, but avoid actually getting to her pussy for as long as you can without being annoying (there's a fine line between teasing and aggravating). +7) When you finally do get to your lickings (I think my intended puns are getting worse...), don't just go straight for the clitoris, pay it special attention, yes, but that's not all there is to her pussy. Lick from the base of her slit to the tip of her clit as many times as you like before going to something more serious. +8) As with guys: use your hands! You have two of them, so make use of them in a number of ways: knead her breasts and toy with her nipples, hold her hands and give them a loving squeeze every now and then (not only is it a great way to gauge her reaction by the way she squeezes back, it's another subtle way to reassure her she's not just a piece of ass), finger her with them, or any combination of the three; again, be creative! If you want to surprise her (guys especially), slide at least one finger inside her as you lick her clit or kiss her lips (the lower ones, of course) and press the tip against her g-spot and give it a little circular massage; it'll give her a little pleasant shock since you did so intentionally and many women love the sensation. For those of you who don't know where the g-spot is, it's about 2 inches inside the vagina; the easiest way to find it is to insert a finger all the way inside her, hook the tip, and drag it along the top of her wall until you run across a spot of raised (or lowered, in this case) tissue. She'll usually tense up the first few times you run across it so watching her response will tell you when you find it. +9) Woo, that last one was a long one. Anyways! Onto #9! As with guys, eye contact is a major pleaser. It really says that you enjoy doing this for her. This makes her feel loved and will also relax her a bit while building her up to that peak. +10) Be very careful with your teeth. As with everyone (though people who have had clitoral or penile piercings are subject to doubt on this), the clitoris is an extremely sensitive organ; it's almost entirely one big nerve ending. So biting is a major no-no unless she asks for it. A good recommendation as far as teeth and the clit go, grab her clit with your teeth very lightly and carefully grind your teeth back and forth (I've been told it feels amazing, but every girl is different). +11) Again, hum! This feels especially good when your teeth are grinding her clit because it creates a sensation similar to her vibrator (and yes, boys, she has one; probably more. If you feel inferior to one, grow up; they may be able to last longer than us, but they can never replace the comfort we can give... Or the warm throbbing cock betwixt their legs; and yes, I really did just use the word ""betwixt""; it's an odd morning. Plus, I've heard of some women who absolutely go crazy from the sensation of having their lover fill them with come; try and get a vibrator to do that!) since your teeth are mostly hollow (though now's not the time for a lesson in dentistry). Add a little flick of your tongue to her clit every now and then and she'll go crazy. +12) Most women are prone to greater clitoral than vaginal stimulation, hence why I chose to focus on that, but you certainly shouldn't limit your attention to just that small little bud. Don't be afraid to really stick your tongue in her, guys and gals, and move it side to side, up and down, or in circles; she certainly won't complain! +13) Just like with men, anal stimulation is possible and enjoyable when done right; it's something you have to talk about before hand. Men tend to believe that anal sex is better because since she can't get pregnant and girls tend to believe that in cases where they're being pressured for sex, anal is better because it doesn't ""pop their cherry"", which means they're still virgins afterwards (I don't really know anyone who still believes that second sentiment, but it's not unheard of), so it tends to lead to very awkward, and often painful, first times brought on by pressure and insensitive boyfriends. Regardless of their reasons, you must talk about it first! +That concludes the tricks I can think of for now. I will give a piece of advice for after she has that first orgasm; you can do one of two things: you can either start all over again (unless she's too sensitive afterwards) or, and this is more recommended, slow down your administrations while she's in the afterglow of orgasm. Or, while she's coming down, if you want to fire her up for another, slide your fingers inside her, scoop out some of her juices and give her a little taste of herself. No matter which route you take, I'd advise giving her a loving kiss before or afterwards. Now then, I'll say feel free to comment and vote, and if the guys and gals here give me enough good reviews, I may write a second one." +695,Oral Technique,Range78725,How To,2000-10-11,2000-10-11,2022-01-04 08:37:16,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/oral-technique,How to please a woman with your mouth.,"['Ass Air', 'Face', 'Kiss Lick', 'Love Woman', 'Oral Sex', 'Outer Lips', 'Pussy Eating', 'Sex Taste', 'Wet Excitement', 'Woman Pussy']",3.94,"I really love performing oral sex on a woman. I can remember fantasizing about it long before I ever had a chance to try it. +I find a woman's pussy to be an almost magical and mysterious source of excitement and pleasure. It feels so good around my penis that sometimes I just want to go down there to try and unlock its mysteries! I love the anticipation of kissing my way down a woman's stomach. I love a woman's soft silky pubic hair, especially when it is neatly trimmed into an alluring triangle-seeming to point the way to go for pleasure! Sometimes I will wrap my arms around my wife and just rest my face on her pubic hair. It is comforting for some reason, being so near the life-giving power of a woman. I also like to gently rub my face against her, it is as if she is scent-marking me as hers. +I also am incredibly turned on by the way woman's pussy looks. I love a woman's outer lips, they seem to exude raw sexual power. I remember the first time I really saw a woman from behind, she was on her knees and had her face down on a pillow and was resting on her arms with her nice ass up in the air waiting for me to enter her from behind. Her outer lips were quite visible to me, as was her anus and vaginal opening, and the view turned me on like you wouldn't believe! I like how soft the lips are, I like to look at them, feel them with my fingers, kiss them, lick them, and finally pull them into my mouth and suck on them like a baby. +I also like to spread them to get to her inner lips. It is like looking through the petals of a soft, pink, sweet flower. I like running my tongue up her inner lips to find the hidden prize of her clitoris at the top. It makes me feel good that I know exactly where her clitoris is, and what type of gentle but steady licking rhythm will drive her crazy. I also love knowing that I can make a woman wet with excitement. The scent and taste is mild, pleasant, intoxicating. I really think women taste good, it is pure sex to taste a woman and any man who doesn't is really missing something. I do not hesitate to press my face into her, licking her wetness and letting my face get wet from her excitement. +I enjoy going down on a woman from many positions. The traditional with her lying on her back and me lying on my stomach between her legs is very nice. It is also fun to lift her legs resting over my shoulders as I eat her. I also like to push her knees up with her heels against her buttocks so she is more exposed to my explorations. I think the best position is this way, but with her on the edge of the bed and me sitting on the floor in front of her. I can see everything this way! +It is even better if she is sitting like this in a comfortable living room chair, heels against her buttocks and right on the edge of her chair. My wife and I tried this recently, and it was very erotic because I could stare into her eyes lovingly as I licked her. This is probably one of the only positions which enables the woman to see what is happening. It also makes it easy to insert a finger into her pussy as I'm eating her. +Another very erotic position is for me to lie on my back, and have her kneeling over me and slowly lower her pussy to my face. Having a woman ""sit on my face"" like this is amazing. She is smothering me with her pussy, and I forget about everything else in the world. I can look up at her breasts and face, I can see that I'm giving her so much pleasure that she can barely stay on top of me! I even like the feeling when she gets so aroused that her juices run down my face and neck, and when she comes she practically falls off of me! +I have also found it fun to begin kissing my wife's neck, kiss my way down her back to her buttocks, kiss and gently bite her buttocks and thighs, and try to get my tongue to her pussy from this angle! I sometimes put my arms around her waist and pull her up so she is sticking her ass in the air, and from this angle I can kiss and lick her pussy. I can't really make her come this way because I can't reach her clitoris, but it is still sexy. +Of course the other wonderful oral sex experience is 69. I really love this. Not being able to see anything but her sex really makes for a focused sexual experience! It has the same ""smother me with your beautiful pussy"" quality and having a woman sit on you, with the added benefit of feeling her warm body against mine and her face against my genitals or my hard cock in her mouth. She generally takes me out of her mouth well before she comes because it is too hard to concentrate on both giving and receiving! I like to reach my arms around her and firmly grasp her buttocks and separate them as I eat her. It is an amazing feeling to make her come this way, and it is often quicker than other methods because my tongue is naturally positioned against her clitoris. +Since she is resting on my face, I don't just lick her clitoral area, but I draw her lips and clit into my mouth and move my tongue against her. I love it when she comes and then collapses with her hot wet pussy right onto my chest. All I see is her sex, and the taste and scent that envelopes me is that of an aroused woman that I just made come!" +696,Orally Pleasuring a Woman,mstwistedangel,How To,2009-07-24,2009-07-24,2022-01-04 08:37:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/orally-pleasuring-a-woman,Simple ideas on how to orally pleasure a woman.,"['Cunnilingus Advice', 'How To Eat Pussy', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Oral Sex How-To', 'Pussy Eating How-To']",4.47,"Most women are shy about their bodies.

I know. I've seen plenty of them. Appreciate your woman's unique qualities and tell her what makes her special. Women are a good deal more verbal than men, especially during love-making. They also respond more to verbal love, which means, the more you talk to her; the easier it will be to get her off. +So all the time you're petting and stroking her beautiful pussy, talk to her.

Women have clits in all different sizes, just like you guys have different sized cocks. It doesn't mean a thing as far as her capacity for orgasm. All it means is more of her is hidden underneath her foreskin. +Whenever you touch a woman's pussy, make sure your finger is wet. You can lick it or moisten it with juices from inside her. Be sure, by all means, to wet it before you touch her clit because it doesn't have any juices of its own and it's extremely sensitive. Your finger will stick to it if it's dry and that hurts. +But you don't want to touch her clit anyway. You have to work up to that. Before she becomes aroused, her clit is too delicate to be handled. Approach her pussy slowly. +Women, even more so than men, love to be teased. The inner part of her thigh is her most tender spot. Lick it, kiss it, and make designs on it with the tip of your tongue. Come dangerously close to her pussy, and then float away. Make her anticipate it. Now lick the crease where her leg joins her pussy. Nuzzle your face into her bush. Brush your lips over her slit without pressing down on it to further excite her. After you've done this to the point where your lady is bucking up from her seat and she's straining to get more of you closer to her, and then put your lips right on top of her slit. Kiss her, gently, then harder. Now use your tongue to separate her pussy lips and when she opens up, run your tongue up and down between the layers of pussy flesh. Gently spread her legs more with your hands. Everything you do with a woman you're about to eat must be done gently. Tongue-fuck her. This feels divine. It also teases the hell out of her because by now she wants some attention given to her clit. +Check it out. +See if her clit has gotten hard enough to peek out of its covering. If so, lick it. If you can't see it, it might still be waiting for you underneath. So bring your tongue up to the top of her slit and feel for her clit. You may barely experience its presence. But even if you can't feel the tiny pearl, you can make it rise by licking the skin that covers it. +Lick hard now and press into her skin. Gently pull the pussy lips away and flick your tongue against the clit, hood covered or not. Do this quickly. This should cause her legs to shudder. When you sense she's getting up there toward orgasm, make your lips into an O and take the clit into your mouth. Start to suck gently and watch your lady's face for her reaction. If she can handle it, begin to suck harder. If she digs it, suck even harder. +Go with her. If she lifts her pelvis into the air with the tension of her rising orgasm, move with her, don't fight her. Hang on, and keep your hot mouth on her clit. Don't let go. That's what she'll be saying too: 'Don't stop. Don't ever stop!' +There's a reason for that, most men stop too soon. +There's another thing you can do to intensify your woman's pleasure. You can finger-fuck her while she's enjoying your clit-licking talents. Before, during or after. She'll really like it. In addition to the erogenous zones surrounding her clit, a woman has another extremely sensitive area at the roof of her vagina. This is what you rub up against when you're fucking her. +Well, since your cock is pretty far away from your mouth, your fingers will have to do the fucking. Take two fingers. One is too skinny, some women like 3 fingers. ASK HER! Some women even like anal stimulation while you're on their clit, ASK! Make sure your fingers are wet so you don't irritate her skin. Slide them inside, slowly at first, then a little faster. Fuck her with them rhythmically. Speed up only when she does. Listen to her breathing. She'll let you know what to do. +If you're sucking her clit and finger-fucking her at the same time, you're giving her far more stimulation than you would be giving her with your cock alone. So you can count on it that she's getting high on this. If there's any doubt, check her out for symptoms. Each woman is unique. You may have one who's nipples get hard when she's excited or only when she's having an orgasm. Your girl might flush red or begin to tremble. Get to know her symptoms and you'll be a more sensitive lover. When she starts to have an orgasm, for heaven's sakes, don't let go of that clit. Hang in there for the duration. When she starts to come down from the first orgasm, press your tongue along the underside of the clit, leaving your lips covering the top. Move your tongue in and out of her cunt. If your fingers are inside, move them a little too, gently though, things are extremely sensitive just now. +If you play your cards right, you'll get some multiple orgasms this way. A woman stays excited for a full hour after she's had an orgasm." +697,Organizing for Single Moms,tsar7,How To,2017-10-23,2017-10-23,2022-01-04 08:37:18,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/organizing-for-single-moms,Getting Organized for single moms and the rest of us.,"['Guide', 'How To', 'Mother', 'Non-Sexual', 'Single']",4.37,"This is about how a broke, single mom can improve her life thru new organization ideas. +1\. Start a secret stash. Think of what you have run out of in the last month causing you to run to the store at 10 pm. This could include diapers, something to eat, toilet paper, hand soap. So you find a place like a closet where you can stash a few of these items. Then when you run out some night, you do not have to make that trip. Build it up with some soup and cracker, soda and peanut butter. Thus, you always have a meal of sorts ready. +2\. Organize your keys. Nothing empowers you like having spare keys. Find a locksmith shop, not a Home Depot, and begin stopping by every few days, copying keys. Buy a large and an medium sized key ring and use the smaller one for your common keys and the larger one for infrequently use keys. Having done this, make a master key ring with every key that you own on it, in case you lose your keys. +Hide a house key outside somewhere. Make sure you can find it in the dark. Consider giving a key to a neighbor or family member that you trust. +Put an extra ignition key and door key in your trunk under the mat in the trunk. Then wire a trunk key on the undercarriage of your car, like on a tie rod. It will soon become grimy and blend in. Worse case scenario, you can get under there and get into your trunk and get home. Also carry copies in your wallet. +Having become good friends with the locksmith by now, see if you can have him come to your house and give you a free evaluation of where they are most likely to break in, and then the next most likely. Try to tighten up your security. +3\. Carry extra money. It is hard if you are running had to mouth, but if there is any way, try to stash a $20 in your trunk. It's also a good idea to have a few dollars worth of quarters on you for vending machines. +4\. Switch to all LED lights throwing away the incandescent and fluorescent bulbs. An LED is 23 times cheaper than even a fluorescent bulb. You literally cannot afford anything besides LED bulbs. +5\. Set up a receiving area by the entry door. A table where you can sit all of your stuff when you come in from the store. This includes the mail. +6\. Set up a desk. I paid $50 for the best desk I ever owned. When people move, they often give away desks. I like big wooden ones where the drawers work. Buy a swivel chair. Occasionally you can find a used one that had some life in it, but usually they are pretty well shot. Go to Goodwill or a garage sale and get a table lamp or two for your desk. Add a fan and space heater and you are in business. +You will need some sort of a filing system. The best is a two drawer lateral file. But you can buy a file box with a handle on it for about $20. I buy a new one for each year. Put a radio in your office, calendar, thermometer, plants and pictures. Make it as comfortable as possible. This is your command center. Its helps immensely in getting organized. +If you cant find a desk, use an old door and two saw horses or a folding table. But desks have drawers and really come in handy. +Get a book shelf, the bigger and deeper, the better. Get a copier/printer if you can afford it. +I like the hard cardboard files with two leaves in them. I set each one up for certain areas of my life: CAR, House, Computer. Then I set up the various leaves for different aspects of that subject...car registration, car insurance, car repairs, car accessories. +You will need a 2 hole punch for the stuff going into the files. +7\. Get an upgraded thermostat if you can afford it. Then you can shut off the heat or cooling from your smart phone and turn it on when you are driving home. This slashed my electric bill. +8\. Have some sort of calendar to lay out your appointments and review it several times a week. Figure out where the place is before hand and map quest it. +9\. Set some goals. Divide them up between health, work, spiritual, home, fun, etc. Write them down where you can see them. +10\. Go to Walmart late at night or early in the morning and slowly cruise every isle. Look for stuff that you need. Oh! I need an extension cord for my nightstand lamp. Oh! I need some windshield washer fluid. Oh! I need Claritin. If you have a list, all the better. Many, however, lose the list. +11\. Stock up as forced savings. Buy extra canned good, paper goods, mouthwash, etc. It saves a trip and when things get tight, its one less thing to worry about. +12\. Carry jars of peanuts, etc and bottled water behind the passengers seat. It saves the time and expense of stopping at the drive thru. +13\. Get roadside assistance on your cell phone account. Carry jumper cables and a 12 volt air pump and a couple of cans of fix a flat. Carry a heavy coat, boots and a hat in your trunk in case you have to hoof it out or sleep in your car. A wool blanket is nice too. +14\. Start writing down every, dollar you spend. Look for the waste. It also gives you a record of when you bought stuff. +15\. For any amount of time that you put into planning, you will save ten times that amount of time. I have tried this and it works. So if you can spend an hour every Sunday night planning your week, grocery list, to do list and such, then you should be able to save ten hours a week. +16\. Each Sunday night go to the grocery store and get the fixings for a Zen lunch. A Zen lunch is a brown bag lunch exactly as you like it. Your favorite bread, cheese, meat, mayonase, chips, apples, cookies, etc. Slowly and thoughtful get the items and also get some bags. Get your favorite olives, pickles, etc. +So you start brownbagging and its healthy and cheap. Just don't eat at your desk at work. Get out and eat outside for a break. +17\. Run a load of wash every day. I load up at night, get up at 5 and start the washer, shift it to the dryer at 6 and remove it at 7. You may do better at night. Just figure out a routine and get ahead of your laundry. Have a big table for folding area. Folding tables from Walmart work. +18\. Get the book ""Getting Things Done"" by David Allen. It is the new cult time management book. You can buy it from Audible to play on your phone while you drive to work. +19\. Try to bring someone into your life to help you organize and then you help them. The energy of two people together is amazing. +20\. Join Costco or Sams Club if you can afford it and start buying in bulk. +21\. Go on a mini vacation to recharge. Get away for the weekend. If nothing else, go visit a friend. But try to stay away for 2 nights. This will energize you. +22\. Get some formidable job all set out to do and go drink a bunch of expresso, go home and tear into it. +So there you have it. Surely some of these ideas will cause things improve in your life." +698,Orgasmic Ecstasy,Diane Marie,How To,2003-01-03,2003-01-03,2022-01-04 08:37:19,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/orgasmic-ecstasy,Any woman can have and should have Multiple Orgasms.,"['Clit Toy', 'Feel Stop', 'Good Orgasms', 'Lovers Body', 'Orgasm Big', 'Orgasmic Ecstasy', 'Pleasure Orgasms', 'Purely Sexual', 'Sex Drives', 'Sex Matter']",3.88,"_I wrote this a while ago for some chat friends of mine, I was surprised how many women felt that they couldn’t have Multiple Orgasms. This assay was my attempt to rectify that. A comment on the author’s board convinced me to share it here at Lit. Lacking a copy of this essay I had to download it from my web site, convert it from a pdf format to text, then revise it to remove some personal information, doing so wasn’t as easy as I had hoped._ +Before you read this, I want to assure you my intent is only to help, if you feel that the tone of this essay is condensing or arrogant , I am sorry. It seemed that way to me at first. I’ve edited and revised this a number of times hopefully that tone is gone . I wrote this for my women friends, although any of you men are welcomed to read it, just be aware that I am addressing most of this to other women. I have added a section at the very end I address to you men, but please read it all, I have a feeling your wives/lovers well be grateful if you do. +I do tend to get off track, some what by intent. I guess I have that right, I wrote this, you don’t really have to read it. I assure you that at some point I really do get to Multiple Orgasms. +Orgasmic Ecstasy! +Recently I was surfing the net, actually I was looking for a story idea. Not so much for an idea, as a way to express some to my feelings. Both emotional and physical. We all feel them, it’s just not so easy to describe them. Try writing about some of your emotions. Anger for an example, easy enough your angry, what’s that feel like, can you write it out. How about fear, your alone walking down the street at night, it’s misty and foggy. You hear footsteps behind you, not far behind you but you can’t make out a figure. You start to run but the foot falls keep pace. (good story idea, maybe) Try describing what that fear feels like, it’s not easy is it, and the word fear isn’t enough. Love, lets not even go there most of us don’t even know what it is, we just know when we feel it. +You’d think it would be easier describing the physical wouldn’t you. Try pain, pain can be very intense, can you truly describe your most intense pain. I’ve been told by many of my friends that childbirth is very painful, not having the privilege I can only imagine. The truth is I long to know but alas that isn’t going to happen for me. No one yet has truly described those feeling. I’d love to read a really good story about childbirth, the intense pain, the exhaustion, mixed in with the joyous feeling of giving birth to your child. +How about this one, it’s been asked in chat enough, what does it feel like to have a penis in your vagina? Good, great, wonderful none of those description is really going to satisfy the men’s curiosity, and not once has an answer really described that feeling very well. I may add here that I have yet to read a story here at Lit that does a good job of describing that feeling. +An orgasm, describe it to someone who’s never had one, then add to that the scuttle differences, in some cases not so scuttle, between the ones you do have. Little orgasm, big orgasm, doesn’t really relate much does it, and what about the ones in between? Maybe it isn’t even possible to describe those feelings using the English language. No offense to my English friends but you lot aren’t real touchy, feely, maybe it’s all your fault were stuck with a language that isn’t overly expressive of emotions or feelings. I take that back, when I lived in England the women always seemed rather touchy, feely, it was just the men who seemed rather distance and cold. I wish I would have been in the correct mind set back then, I surely wanted to do some touching and feeling. +This isn’t about writing but I did want to let you all see how I waste my on line time. I was looking for a better way of describing an orgasm to be exact. I didn’t find much help. Here’s mine from a recent story. ""It seemed to start in my fingers and toes then rush inward to my pelvis from there my whole body shook with spasms as wave after wave of pleasure coursed though my body."" Maybe not good but it does show how intense that orgasm was. But the word pleasure isn’t really it is it, an orgasms is much more then that. +Here’s the way another woman, Betty Dodson, described hers in her article ""Multiple Orgasms"", I’m going to quote more from her later. ""My entire body started trembling with involuntary spasms as I rode the waves of pleasure."" Both her description and mine are about multiple orgasms, the intensity of the later ones. I found it interesting that we both used wave, spasm and pleasure. Could that be inspired by something we both read when we were young? I tend to like hers better, but my orgasms, the better ones, really do seem to start in my fingers and toes then go inward before exploding out in waves of pleasurable contractions. I know it’s going to be a big orgasm when I feel it first in my fingers and toes. Isn’t pleasurable contractions so inadequate. +How about this one ""Electric flesh-arrows . . . traversing the body. A rainbow of color strikes the eyelids. A foam of music falls over the ears. It is the gong of the orgasm,"" by Anaïs Nin. I’ve never seen a rainbow of colors but at times I’ve seen stars. +As I hunted for my elusive literary image, I started thinking about how my orgasms have changed over the years. Changed isn’t really correct it’s more how the intensity has changed. I remember when I used to think those little ones were all I was going to ever have. Nice but no real reason to be intensely sexual. I could lay on my back and in five or ten minutes, have one, what did I need a partner for. Of course I needed a partner, I, like everyone else, need that emotional component of having sex. Bonding, a feeling of oneness, I’m sure you have your own description. But that alone doesn’t give you the drive to have sex very often or feeling of blissfulness that is possible from making love. You have to have orgasms, good orgasms to have that. +Speaking of the emotional, is it really love we need? Admittedly having sex with someone we love is good. It can be a marvelous experience if he/she is also a great lover. But is love really the emotional connection we seek from partnered sex? I can’t speak for anyone else, but some of the best purely sexual experiences I’ve had, have been with partners I have not loved. It is curious in a way but that feeling of bonding, of oneness was there also. Is it possible that in that brief intense period of ecstasy we feel love? I for one think not but we feel something more then the purely sexual. +In a way we have been brain washed into believing sex really is about making love, that orgasms are a component of love. Not so with men, they tend to think of sex exactly as it is, a physical state of ecstasy. For us it is some what different, we can’t reach ecstasy merely by having one tiny orgasm or as many women experience with partnered sex, none at all. To reach the point of physical ecstasy, we need more then men seem to, we need more then mere sex, we need fantastic sex. We are never going to have it easy like men, in my opinion even bad sex brings them somewhat to the point of ecstasy. On our side of course, is that fact that sex can be so intense for us, we go places men can only dream about. +Remember that stupid science fiction movie, ""Dune""? How stupid of me to have not know until recently that, that movie was based on a series of science fiction novels. The hero, whatever his name was, went somewhere in his drug state that women were afraid to go. If that whole movie wouldn’t have been so sexist, it would have been funny, maybe that is why I remember it. I think the author was jealous, we have been to that place, and men aren’t allowed in. +Perhaps men fear our sexual intensity. That could explain why all current major religions teach our desires, our almost unquenchable sexual hunger is equated with evil. May I point out that in all of those religions, men wrote the books. It also explains why in some cultures, the genitalia of young girls are so mutilated that their ability to give her pleasure is destroyed. I suppose they would do the same to these girls breasts if they weren’t needed to suckle their male prodigy, not to mention the fact that men find our breast sexually stimulating. +If that sounds anti male to you so be it, but I’m not the one doing or teaching these things, men are!!!! My own church, Roman Catholic, taught for years that women were more likely to fall under satin’s influence because of the intensity of our orgasms, along with their frequency. Not only did these men teach we were mentally weaker because of this, but we were inherently evil do to our god given ability to feel more pleasure doing sex then they were. The Muslin religion, which originally taught the equality of women, has been so perverted by men, it now teaches that women are at best second class. +Most of us in the western world do have some semblance of equality, although we’re not yet treated as equal, but men did not give that to us, we fought for that. In America women have had the right to vote for less then 82 years. Did men intend to give us equal rights, did men write that in our constitution, no they did not, it took a constitutional amendment to give us the right to vote. Did men wake up one day saying, ""we’ve been so wrong women need the right to vote,"" of course they didn’t, we had to protest, we had to fight, and when push came to shove many women just told their men, ""Vote no and your voting yourself out of my bed."" +Did any of you know that less then 150 years ago in most of the United States women did not even have the right to inherit. You were dependent on your husband, upon his death you were just shit out of luck. Do you really want to trust your freedom to a gender that couldn’t even see the need to protect his loving wife after his death. Have men changed that much, open your eyes look around the world. +Maybe I do have some anti male bias, but shouldn’t we all, shouldn’t we be on our guard, though out history men have subordinated us. Look around the world women as a whole are not given equality. Yes, that is changing, but it’s changing only because women have demanded it, not because men have given it to us, quite the contrary, they’ve been drug by the scruff of their necks screaming and yelling all the way. If facing reality is being a man hater then I guess that label fits me. If on the other hand loving some men, having male friends counts for anything the label just doesn’t fit. +Continuing on, I believe we are much less driven by the need and desire for sex then men are. I assume that is due mostly to the differences in hormones. Although once we have experience really great sex, our sexual desires become a bigger component in our lives. At times it can be the force that drives us. Great sex for most of us takes more then just a great lover, we also have to overcome all of these other issue. Morality, the image of the good girl, the acceptance of our bodies, along with others fostered on us by our parents, ours churches and the societies we live in. For us even the ability to have an orgasms seems to be something we have to learn. +My opinion is the biggest of these obstacles is that awful image of the good girl. An image forced upon us at a very early age. For what ever reason we’ve been taught that boys/men won’t control themselves, if we don’t do so then we are theirs for the taking. We are told sex is some how connected to love, sex without love is wrong. Why is it men aren’t taught that? +For most of us control means more then saying no. When we’re young just learning about sex we learn to say no by learning to control, even suppress, our desires and passions. To have really great sex we need to relearn, we need to be able to let go, live for the moment, learning to let our desires, passions and arousal’s control our bodies instead of our minds. That isn’t about submitting to anything or anyone other then ourselves. +In a way the false belief, sex in a component of love, can actually diminish our desire for the sexual if our partner isn’t treating us the way we need to be treated. Of course that very lack of sex drive, and the lack of having sex, drives us further apart, further diminishing our desire for sex. If our partner happens to be driven by a desire for sex, most men fit, some women, they resent not having sex, that resentment drives us further apart. A vicious circle isn’t it. I’ll state here that I haven’t found any men like this. They can grow to hate us but give them a chance and they well have sex with us. We do that, we are guilty of it. What is the solution, why are some of us more driven to have sex then others? +In any relationship gone bad, a point is reached that no matter how sexual you are your desire for sex with him/her drops to near zero but I tend to think that for most of us that point happens to soon. Even in good relationships we tend to shut off to soon. I don’t think we do that as punishment, men seem to think we do, it’s in our nature to not feel sexually about our lover when things go wrong. Does that seem contradictory, on one hand I say we’ve been brain washed to believe sex is about love and then on the other I say it’s natural to lose the desire for sex when things are not right in our love relationships. Not in the least, if we just look at the purely sexual, then it’s just that one person we don’t want to have sex with. I think that is born out by the fact that most women who do cheat, do so at times when things aren’t right with their partner. The desire for sex is still there, but it just takes another person to kindle it. +Sex could hold us together, giving time to work out our problems, but what happens most of the time is not having sex drives us apart faster. I know that was so during my first marriage. I resented him being gone, I resented not being his number one priority, yes I wanted and expected to be the center of his world. I resented him not paying attention to me, but he resented my coldness, my unwillingness to be touched sexually. I don’t blame him, he’d be gone for up to a week at a time, I’m sure he missed me and he was also very horny, that is natural. I’d missed him just as much, in fact I was also horny, I desired his touch, but we had problems. I resented not dealing with our problems, he resented my coldness, he’d get angry because of the lack of sex and clam up. I’d get madder because he wouldn’t talk to me. The madder I got the less I wanted sex, the less I wanted sex the more withdrawn he became. +I loved that man more then any man I ever loved, I’m sure as much as I’m capable of loving a man, but I shut off sooner then I did with any other man I had a relationship with since. Why? Because the sex just wasn’t that great. Doesn’t that sound just awful. Your partner has to know how to make love to you and then care enough to do so. He didn’t know how to, he did care, we both needed to try harder and learn more. If anything I was the more experienced lover, I’d been with a number of men, his experience with other women was limited, exactly one other. +That should have meant I could have taught him. But I didn’t know how to teach him to pleasure me. To me, I suppose because of my childhood, I didn’t think of sex as pleasure, I thought of it as a way to please men. I know my childhood was not normal, but I also know that many women are brought up to please rather then to be pleased. Not just sexually, but in all things. There is something terrible wrong with that, the giving of ourselves should never be a duty. We do take care of our loved ones, by our very nature we nurture those we love but that should be a gift not an obligation. +If only our first lover could be this marvelous man, one who knew how to make love, one who also knew how to get us passed our inhibition. A man who saw the pleasure of giving to us, ignoring what we could give to him. One who could teach us about our own bodies, about the extraordinary ability of our bodies to feel pleasure. Not just in orgasm but in all the little and big pleasure we can and should feel doing sex, from the tender kiss that excites us, to the mind blowing orgasms some of us feel during oral sex. +The thing is, I regret not knowing any of those feelings during that time in my life. I’m not saying we would have made it, I’m sure that if we had, I would now be longing for something he can’t give me. But I do regret not having the kind of sex that no matter how mad I was at him, I would still have been over come with lust for him. Love is a strange thing isn’t it, not having sex pushed us apart but the reason I didn’t want sex with him was I loved him and I was hurting. +Complicating things further, we humans are a strange sort, even when we don’t know what great sex is, not having any sex kindles a fire inside of us. When we won’t have that fire put out by the one we love, we look else where. Some of us do control that, some of us as I’ve said live a life of control, others don’t, I didn’t. I regret that in the end that caused the destruction of my marriage, but I well never regret my affair with Shawn. He taught me the pleasures of my body, the intensity of an orgasm. He was the first person to ever take me to that place I call Orgasmic Ecstasy. In a way he helped my marriage, I was again having sex with my husband, guilt I suppose, but it was still sex. Given that we were having sex again, and given that I was starting to understand what I needed, along with how great sex could be, maybe at some point that kind of sex would have happened with my husband. It didn’t, I got caught, thus breaking his heart, along with my own. I do have regrets but perhaps I only regret getting caught, not the cheating. +Before I continue I want to state two shocking facts I learned. Thirty eight percent of American women have never had an orgasm. One out of three women, those who have orgasms, have difficulty reaching orgasm during partnered sex. I’m not sure the last is so shocking, but it does say something about their partners. My best friend hardly ever has an orgasm with her husband, he’s a very selfish man. Given that fact it’s a wonder it took her so many years of marriage before she took a lover. It’s debatable, although I’m partly to blame, that her solution was her best course of action, she loves her husband, why didn’t she just demand better sex? I’ll tell you why, she’s tried, he just doesn’t care, or he doesn’t listen, some men just never get it, but in the defense of men, some women never do either. +I do not understand how thirty eight percent of us have not had an orgasm, baring some physical problem that is just stupid. We have fingers, there is absolutely no reason not to have an orgasm, although I’m not as surprised as I would have been before I came to chat. I can’t believe how many women have said they don’t masturbate. I truly believe that one of the keys to great sex is knowing our bodies, you can’t get there if you don’t masturbate. I also believe that having an orgasm is something we have to learn, it just doesn’t happen for most of us on it’s own. Maybe that is the price our maker extracted from us in order to feel so much more then a man can feel. +If you aren’t having orgasms it’s time you do, take some time for yourself, get naked, lay on your bed, relax and have some fun. You may not get there the first time but keep trying, I assure you it is well worth the effort. If your partner isn’t giving you orgasms, it is time to communicate. I think the best communication you can have with him is to show him how you masturbate. He’ll love it. Of course if you don’t masturbate, if you have no idea what you do or don’t like during masturbation, how in the hell are you going to teach him. +Enough lecturing back to my point. It’s so much different for me now, I just love having sex, not just the orgasms, the whole experience but it is the orgasms that make it that way. Take away the orgasms and I agree with Ann Landers, give me the kissing, the snuggling, maybe a little petting, the rest I don’t really need, let him use his hand. Add those orgasms back in and it’s hard to stop me. I can be in the biggest fight ever with my partner and still want sex. My last lover, Diane, confused, think about how it was for our friends. Sarah my intended life partner is for the most part this way. She did shut me out for a short time while we were fighting about her parents, but in the end our sex drives got us beyond the fighting, bringing us to a point, one night after an amazing session of love making, where we started to work out a solution to that problem. +What is it about us that makes us this way, being lesbian. Not a good answer, I was this way before I admitted who I am. What we do share in common is what I call orgasmic ecstasy. What is that, nothing more then we have these very intense orgasms. Call them what you well, full body orgasms, mind blowing orgasms, all I know is that I just love having them. Why are our orgasms so intense? Because we all have multiple orgasms. I truly believe that to reach the point I call orgasmic ecstasy you have to have multiple orgasms. +Why am I writing this, because some, maybe lots, of you say you don’t have multiple orgasms, you can’t your to sensitive. I disagree, everything I read says any women can have multiple orgasms. While I was looking for that description of orgasms, I happened upon a page at a site that tried to teach women how to have multiple orgasms. Here is what the writer said about how she learned to have multiple orgasms. I quote from her article titled ""Multiple Orgasms"" by Betty Dodsom, Ph.D. By the way she teaches a course on masturbation, that might be a fun job. How would that work, a two hour class for the women, an hour break to practice, and then an hour course for men, not that men need it but it could be fun watching. +""My adult masturbation was quite modest in the beginning. It took about ten minutes for me to come and then I stopped. At first I did the classical hand job, using massage oil for a sensuous feeling and teasing my clitoris with one or two fingers. Then one night I watched myself masturbating with the magnifying side of a makeup mirror. It was a fabulous sight, like watching an erotic movie on a miniature screen. It added style to the way I handled myself, watching my vaginal lips turn a deeper red and my clitoris getting bigger. Doing an internal vaginal massage with three fingers increased lubrication and my sexual juices glistened in the bright light. I ended up moving my hand so rapidly it was a blur just before I came. This visual information was very new and exciting. +At first, I never had more than one orgasm when I masturbated. My clitoris was always too sensitive to touch immediately after I'd come, so that signaled the end of sex. Then one night after watching myself have an orgasm in the mirror again, I was still turned on, but too sensitive to continue. Suddenly I flashed on the idea of panting like they taught women in childbirth classes to help them cope with pain. I began doing the same breathing to cope with more pleasure and quickly discovered I could keep going with a lighter touch. Within seconds, my clitoral hypersensitivity disappeared and I was into another sexual buildup. Instead of holding my breath and pulling back after my first orgasm, I increased my breathing to match the strong sensation and moved through what I'd once labeled ""pain"" into a new experience with pleasure. Multiple orgasms! Basically it was as simple as learning to keep going and not to stop."" +I decided to test this theory of hers, so the next time Sarah and I made love, I paid more attention to every thing going on. During oral sex I too felt that same feeling, one I no longer even think of as painfully sensitive, and admittedly there does come a point when I feel the need to stop but it is no longer that feeling, more so exhaustion. Even now I tend to at times push my lover away long before I really want to stop. A good lover should know the difference between those times and when one really needs to stop, communications is important but knowing our lover’s body as well as you know our own is more important. That is a circle in a way, you need to know your lovers body, to know it you need to communicate. I guess if your not a lesbian then that applies to your man knowing your body as well as his own, but shouldn’t you know the same about his? +I’m not sure about the panting like having a baby, never had the privilege, but I do at that point start panting. Later on after a couple more orgasms it’s constant, I just don’t stop panting. I really think that is the trick of getting past that point of being to sensitive, Sarah does the same. Maybe some other women have some another method, if so I say whatever works for you do it. +I also think the panting helps to quiet the need I feel to force an orgasm, something I find only keeps me from having one. Neither Sarah nor I were conscious of our panting prior to that night, I suppose we were lucky enough to just have it happen. No that is not true with me, a lover, I’ve told you about him, Shawn, forced it on me, he just wouldn’t stop. An amazing man, he had magic fingers, and he gave oral as good as any woman I’ve been with. Oh my god I just admitted a man can give oral as good as a woman, I’ll just add not many. +I don’t really know what magic Shawn possessed but I’d do just about anything he asked, maybe because he gave me so much more then I knew was possible. I’m sure part of it was something inside of me, I could let completely go with him. I always felt that was do to the already forbidden nature of our relationship. I guess you could say the good girl, although not real good, found the bad girl inside of her. +Getting off the subject again. I’ve often wondered what Casanova had that made him so desirable to us. Even by his own account he wasn’t a overly handsome man, average at best. I’m sure he had to be like Shawn, a marvelous lover, one who knew the importance of giving, considering his needs secondary to our own. There had to be more, something that would attract you to him, just as I, I’m sure many other women, was attracted to Shawn. Did we instinctively know that making love to him would be so amazing, maybe for some a once in a live time happening, or was it his confidence, his knowing where he could take us that made him so tempting. +I sit here thinking about Shawn, I see his face, I can feel his touch, I can almost smell him, but why was I so attracted to him. He surely had personality, but it was more then that, it was a knowing, I didn’t know good sex but somehow I knew that with Shawn, I would learn great sex. WHY????? +Oh my god, I lost track again. I did do some thinking about the panting, and I do remember panting around a few men’s penises when we were making love. There was no way I was going to suck anything at that point, I just had to pant. I’m not so sure they weren’t at some risk at those times, the last thing on my mind was what was in my mouth. +Betty later describes the use of a vibrator and how intense her orgasm were. I think if anything it was the vibrator that made me reach my full potential, but not alone by myself with a partner, I give up to soon. Contrary to what some say, that does not diminish your ability to have orgasms with a partner without the use of a vibrator. Sarah can and does, as other lovers have, give me all I need with her tongue. It’s just sometimes I love toys. Toys add a certain intensity level to the end of our love making. At times one or both of us want that something extra, and our love making can get very intense, sometimes more then our tongues and mouths can stand. Using the right toys, in a way that extends those orgasms is in my opinion extraordinary. +Here’s how I describe the scene of a woman’s first experience with multiple orgasms from a recent story. Of course her first experience was with another woman, so what if I write with a bit of a female prejudice. It doesn’t do those feelings and intensity justice. I did steal the idea of the one lover telling the other to pant from Betty, I felt that if only one woman read my story and tried, it would be worth every word. +""Half in a daze I looked up. Julie was standing naked next to the lounge. Smiling she took my hand in hers leading me into the pool, where we kissed and caressed for what seemed like hours but in reality was only minutes. Then leading me back to the lounge she proceeded to make love to me, slowly, tenderly, giving attention to all of my body. Making love like that was so unbelievable, nothing rushed, nothing left wanting. When her tongue finally reached my pussy I was ready to explode, when she gently sucked my clitoris into her mouth I did explode, in the most marvelous orgasm I’d ever had. +Her tongue continued to play masterfully upon my clitoris but the feeling was just to intense, my clitoris so sensitive it was painful. As I tried to push Julie away, she looked up at me and said ""start panting just like your having a baby"". I’d never had a baby but I had prepared myself, I knew how to breath. It sounded so stupid, but I did as she told me, within seconds I was past the point of painful over stimulation and on the verge of yet another orgasm. When the next orgasm hit it was must stronger, sending waves of pleasure through out my body. As it subsided I again got past my need to stop by panting, again with the same results, I was building to yet another orgasm. This time it seemed stronger, maybe not stronger but I could sense I was building to something different. When the next orgasm hit it was unbelievable. It seemed to start in my fingers and toes then rush inward to my pelvis from there my whole body shook with spasms, as wave after wave of pleasure coursed through my body. I suppose from then on I never stopped panting as one orgasm after another rushed over took me. I was in ecstasy, the only way to describe it is orgasmic ecstasy. I’d never been very vocal during sex, maybe a few unintelligible sounds, but I now was screaming. Of course mostly unintelligible sounds but I remember panting ‘oh god’ over and over and over again."" +I do repeat ""oh god, oh god"", over and over again. I guess to thank her for making me in such a way that I can experience so much pleasure, so many orgasms, so close together. +The author I mentioned earlier, described multiple orgasms as serial, thinking this was a better term then multiple. I for one tend to agree, each orgasms is distinct from the last, each need it’s own build up. Although not completely, it isn’t like starting over again, it’s like your back on the edge of that plateau waiting to go over the edge. The time between seems to vary for no apparent reason, but it does. The intensity of each varies to, it isn’t really a progression from little to big, at least not most of the time, not for me, although Sarah’s tend to build that way. The way I wrote about the experience in my story would fit Sarah more then it does me. +A bonus for both Sarah and I is that at the end, the orgasms are all massive, without much time in-between. I think that would be true for anyone who can keep going working though the intensity of the experience. There does come a point you feel you just have to stop, exhaustion as much as sensitivity. But if you really want more, at times I do, and you have an understanding partner, it doesn’t take much time to recover and be back on the edge of that plateau again. Don’t just stop and rest or you well then need to start over, we do continue making love, maybe those are the most tender times for us, kissing, touching but most of all tender loving words. I don’t know about anyone else other then Sarah and I, I’ve never talked about it with anyone else. +One thing I disagree with Betty Dodsom, Ph.D. on is she seems to think four or five orgasms are typical, I have more then that, sometimes many more, so does Sarah, maybe we’re greedy. Betty claims the women who say they have more are counting contraction. I know the difference between a orgastic contraction and a whole orgasm, so she is wrong. Perhaps the difference is I have a partner, I rarely go beyond four or five when I masturbate, truth is one is usually all I want. +Now if I’m masturbating for a lover that is a different matter. I learned the joy of masturbating for a lover a long time ago. Another thing Shawn taught me. I learned the lust part of it, riding down Interstate 80, in the good old state of Iowa. The wickedly, stimulating, carnal lust of being watched by strangers, mainly truckers, they have the best view. So what if I’m a bit wicked, I just love it. +The downside of experiencing multiple orgasms is you aren’t really happy with a quickie. Once you’ve experienced it, you’ll want to experience it every time you make love. Not necessarily the complete deal every time, but more then one or two good orgasms. Especially if you start with the little ones like I do most of the time. That said we still have our version of the quickie, but that is more about love and bonding. +Another problem is that it takes a really loving and understanding partner, it isn’t easy, it can be work. In a way it is selfish also, as much as you want to pleasure your lover it does come to a point where you just can’t. If your with a man, I think it is harder for him, no way can he get this much pleasure, nor is he going to receive equal time, it does make it one sided. It is easier for me when I take the led, I know what she’s experiencing. I’m also going to feel the same or I just have. That is one of the reasons why I say use toys, it’s easier for the man. I also think once a man has used toys while he’s made love to you, he’ll love it, we all, women and men alike, tend to do a lot of what we love to do. +I think Sarah and I are more oral then most couples but that seems to be the case with most of our lesbian friends, although surprisingly not all. I know one lesbian who won’t go down on her partner. I still say my Sonic Care toothbrush is the best clit toy there is, although that auto shutoff always seems to shut off at the wrong time. We use that along with a normal vibrator, the damn thing even looks like a penis, but it’s blue. We do have others but that one is the best for penetration, not to big not to small. And yes we share, I know some of you seem to find that distasteful, something I just don’t understand. Yes men, I’m admitting that penetration helps, fingers work wonderfully to. I just came up with an interesting concept, a Sonic Care toothbrush and a penis, attach the penis to a man, one who has some staying power and away we go. Oh well, that isn’t going to happen for me, if one of you tries it, let me know how it turns out. +A trick I used when I was with a man, was to position him so I could give him a blow job while he was using toys on me. That helped, thus my earlier comment on panting around a penis. He was a wonderful man and lover. He never complained about me getting more then my fair share. OK I’m a slut, I did this with other men too, I’ve had more then my fair share of them. +Contrary to the impression some may have of me, I do like men, and I think most men want to be good lovers. I also think most men are willing to give more then they receive, at least that has been my experience. The thing about men is they have to be taught to make love to us. For us it’s less about being taught to make love to them, and more about getting over our hang ups, we seem to do just fine once that happens. +Love making is a give and take, it is surprising to me that so many women won’t give a man a real blow job, that means to climax. So you don’t like the taste, big deal, you get used to it. Think of it this way, his seed is not something nasty, how could anything that gives you the joy of a child be nasty. I don’t know a man who doesn’t think oral sex and allowing him to cum in your mouth isn’t the greatest experience he’ll ever have. Anal, I don’t like it but I have done it at least once with every man I was in a relationship after Shawn, note the word relationship, a one night stand isn’t. Funny thing is most of the men I’ve been with, found they really didn’t like anal that well, but being denied it by their other women made it an obsession. It can be painful for both, but it doesn’t have to be, lots of lubrication and having your partner go slow helps, you have to really relax. We all have our hang ups, I suppose I have that about anal, maybe that has a lot to do with me not enjoying it. I can not imagine having an orgasm from anal sex even if my clit is stimulated. +I’d better make my point. That being, you can have wonderful sex and still only have one or two orgasms spread out over time, but you are missing out if you don’t have multiple orgasms. I truly believe that to have the kind of sex that no matter how mad you are at your lover you’ll still want to have sex, you have to experience orgasmic ecstasy. The only way to get there is multiple orgasms. +I sure hope this helps some of you, I want you all to experience the same pleasures I do. By the way I kind of like Betty’s mirror idea. Maybe I can add a little style for my next trip down the interstate. Another good reason to have a man, men like that sort of thing, it does nothing for Sarah. Although she does allow me to indulge in my fetishes. I know she kind of got turned on tying me up a few weeks ago, my other big fetish. Here I was at her complete mercy and what does she do, takes me to that place called orgasmic ecstasy, she’d have done that anyway. Maybe for me that is what being tied up is all about, being completely under someone else control but someone I trust not to do something I’m not conformable with. +***** FOR YOU MEN. We have bodies make love to them, not just our breasts and vulva. I for one love to be kissed and kiss. I love my neck kissed, don’t forget the back of my neck and just behind my ears too. I love my chest just about my breasts tenderly caressed with my lovers finger tips, her lips at times. I adore having my back touched and kissed, kissing the small of my back drives me wild. Kissing and caressing the inside of my thighs is marvelous. Of course I want my breasts and nipples touched, caressed, nibbled and sucked. When I’m really turned on I love my nipples pulled and pulled hard. I love to be teased, my lover taking her/his time avoiding direct contact with my vulva until I’m about to beg. +My point is, I have a body make love to all of it. Don’t just dive right in and try to stimulate my vulva, I’m not ready and I’ll never have those really big orgasms if I’m not ready. In my case don’t suck my toes, I don’t like that but some women do. Each of us is different you need to learn your lovers body, make love to all of her. +If you can make love to me, as I described, an orgasm can happen almost the second you touch my clitoris with your tongue. When I’m made love to this way all those little things that stand in the way of an orgasm, stress, apprehension, work, life’s big and little problem have disappeared and I’m lost in the moment, I’m lost within myself and my lover. +Contrary to what some of you men seem to think, intercourse doesn’t do it for us, maybe some but I’ve never met her, and I’d tend to think that if she thinks that intercourse is the most wonderful part of sex, then she never really been with a person who knew how to make love. Most all of us need our orgasms before intercourse, my preference is oral, your lovers may be something else, if you give me enough of those, I may even have an orgasm or two during intercourse, if you don’t orgasms aren’t going to happen. Think of it this way intercourse is desert, we all love desert, but it’s not the main course. +Being that life is so contradictory, I intend to contradict myself by saying there are times we just want to fuck. Rip your pants off, then fuck the hell out of you, at times that may be suck the hell out of you before you get to take us. Not often mind you, not nearly as often as you’d like I’m sure, but those times still happen. They exist in all relationships, there are times I want Sarah to just fuck me, of course our version of fucking isn’t intercourse, it’s her face between my legs, her tongue on my clit and her fingers pumping hard in and out of my vagina, maybe even a finger of her other hand, oh never mind. +Diane +PS if you want to try a Sonic Care tooth brush, best clit toy I’ve found, you’ll need to cut off the splash guard. Please file the cut smooth with a nail file, doing so is very important, I didn’t the first time and cut myself. I find the bristles to be to way to harsh, I use the back of the brush. Try it both ways you may like the bristles. Yes I know some of you are laughing, but I’ve never been one to be afraid to experiment. Sarah, being not as adventuresome as I am, was some what apprehensive at first, she’s now very happy I didn’t really give her a choice to say no. I love my tooth brush, I’ll continue to use it until I find something that works better, I’ve tried, so far no luck. Hopefully if I ever find one it won’t have an automatic shut off." +699,Orgasming in Company,PenanceS,How To,2003-02-18,2003-02-18,2022-01-04 08:37:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/orgasming-in-company,"How to orgasm, and not get caught by others.","['Bed Floor', 'Lie Bed', 'Plenty Time', 'Pull Pants', 'Room Door']",2.02,"All right, so you want to find the best way to have sex, but you’re living with someone else; I.E. your parents (Yes, some 30ish year olds do still live at home), or College roommate, or other roommate (sibling). +Don’t despair, all is NOT lost. You can still have smashing orgasms, even with someone else in the bunk bed right above you. +First off, you need to have someplace with privacy. This can be your room, or a bathroom, or if that fails, even your own bed. +Ok, find a place. My personal favorite is my room, but… if there’s a door on it that closes, so much the better. +Next, make sure that you bring in a box of Kleenex, or a roll of Toilet paper… this will be explained later. +Close the door, and lock it if possible, if not that’s ok. +Now, get somewhere where you can lie prone. I prefer my bed, but the floor works just as well too. +If you can’t lock the door, that’s fine, just lie on your bed, and toss a blanket over you. Now once you’re alone. If no one is going to be home for the next few hours, than relax, you have all the time in the world. +Go to your secluded place, and take off your shoes. Only your shoes for now the rest will follow in minute. +Then lie down upon the bed or floor. +If you have plenty of time, get undressed totally; strip however you want to strip; get naked or if you like a tight T-shirt on and nothing else, go for that. +If you don’t have plenty of time, just unzip and pull down your pants and underwear, just enough so that you’ll be able to get a hand in to where you need to go… you know where that is. +If you’re a guy, gently take your penis in a fist and move your hand slowly up and down in the same rhythm. You will find yourself getting aroused, and growing erect. This is good, it means that blood flow is getting to the penis, and turning you on. +If you’re a girl, gently stroke the outer part of your lips to make sure that you’re really wet. If you try to go in dry, the results could be a little painful. +Once you are wet, than gently find the little nubbin that centers on your pleasure (the same rules apply for you girls – blanket over you if someone is in the room, door shut if it’s empty). Stroke it as much as you like and as much as feels comfortable. +You’ll feel really good, and really, really aroused. Think about your favorite subject, Girlfriend, boyfriend or whatever it is that turns you on at the moment, and let your hand continue to work. +In a moment you will feel a pulsating in your abdomen… this is good. Keep the rhythm up, and you’ll begin to have an orgasm. +Boys: If you’re wearing a shirt, grab several Kleenexes or sheets of TP and place it lightly over your penis to sop up the mess. +Girls: It’s the same deal, though you won’t have to worry about outer ejaculation… however it is good if you do clean up slightly. +Dry off totally, and then pull up your pants.

This is written from the stand point as a guide for men. +Possibly the best sex is in the evening after the man has had a nap and feels well rested and ready to please. +Starting in the spoon position with the man behind and the woman held into his chest facing away with as much of the body in contact as comfortable. And now just breath into the woman's ear. The man will tune into what the woman is feeling. As he feels that she is riding the wave of sensation. He will feel a strong desire to start gently touching her ear with his tongue. Do follow the woman's energy and feel the needs in her this is creating. Let go of the male energy of wanting to hurry to completion. Have no thoughts other than just what is happening at the moment. Let the waves of joinment guide the next tiny step. Savor each tiny step, be ready at any second, for the energy to desire a rest. Use these times to connect with the lover. Feel love, breath in light, God and feel the heart center feel warm and full, exhale this to surround and nourish your partner. Feel that everything all around is benefiting from this process. +Continue feeling where the joined waves move you, or if the waves of connection, desire connection and sharing love with each other. Move on to other areas of the female body as directed by the joined connection. +Essentially the intention of the encounter is to totally connect, share love and see God in your self, partner and surroundings. As the waves of sexuality peak through this intention. Let her energy guide your movements. +Eventually you will be guided to move on to feeling the sensations of her whole body, try to stay away from the sexually charged areas like breasts and bottom and between the legs until last. This could easily last over an hour with out touching these sexual areas. +Often she will instinctual move so as to maximize contact with areas she needs touched. Just play with these areas with out any thought of anything else. Forget about any idea of completing your time with even this area. Allow eternity to last as long as you are internally guided to caress her energy here. Rather than thinking of touching her body imagine your energy coming from your body and joining with the energy in her body. Feel and internally see the movement and Will of this energy. Think of floating naked in the ocean. You are part of the ocean like a drop of water in the ocean, moved by the Will of the Ocean. Allow the Ocean of energy to move you and tease your joined sexual desires and connection. +Eventual the Ocean will bring you to the vagina area. +By this time she could not stand not having your groin area near her groin area. Think of an inward spiral with the center of the spiral being her clitoris. The Waves in the Ocean will start you at the outer edge of this spiral and eventually you will end in the center. Allow your self to be reluctant to move to the center. Maximize your enjoyment of slowing the decent of the spiral to her clitoris. When the awareness in finally only on the two groins in close proximity, a nice position is the woman laying on her back with her legs as far open and her knees raised in the direction of her ears as much as comfortable, heals resting on his low back area. The mans arms will go under her shoulders and his palms will hold the back of her head. thus creating a kind of open pocket with the upside down V legs of the clitoral nerves that run from the clitoris along the inner labia and into the vagina. The penis will slide from her opening almost to her clitoris slowly and very connected. +Keep the point of contact between the penis and stimulated area on the woman well lubricated. By dipping the penis occasionally into the vagina. The goal is for there to be no friction between the penis and contact with the woman's area now. +Looking into each others eyes and seeing God or infinity in the other persons eyes, helps now. Gradually the movement of the penis will become faster, as this happens the woman will take over being active and the man will become passive, eventually the man stopping his movement completely. As the speed increases the mans movement will come to a stop and what will take over is an instinctual tiny jerking of the woman's hips. As she is instinctual moved to tiny jerks of her hips her intention is for the penis to not come into contact with the clitoris, starting each tiny stroke near the opening and ending each stroke below the clitoris. She may now take over completely and do what feels best. Just stay away having the penis touch the clitoris until the woman can not put off orgasm any longer. Now that she feels she must orgasm she may allow the penis to contact her clitoris. And allow the orgasm to explode her awareness into the cosmos, joining her completely with her partner and God." +701,Overcoming Disappointment,Cinner,How To,2012-05-23,2012-05-23,2022-01-04 08:37:22,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/overcoming-disappointment,A few thoughts about overcoming disappointment are shared.,"['Attitude', 'Change', 'Courage', 'Disappointment', 'Encouragement', 'Friendship', 'Jamaica', 'Life', 'Optimism', 'Strength']",4.48,"""Disenchantment, whether it is a minor disappointment or a major shock, is the signal that things are moving into transition in our lives."" - William Throsby Bridges +I have gone through a very rough patch in recent months and though I have tried to put a brave face on things I have had to acknowledge to myself that I am disappointed with the way in which my life has unfolded over the past two years. Of course, there are many responses possible for me in this situation, and obviously I've been trying some of them; but I think that it is time to move on and to recapture the spirit that once made me great. Yes, I said ""great"". For although I may not have been a world leader, a Nobel Laureate, or a celebrity of any sort, and I will not emerge from this exercise being any closer to any of these ideal states, I was closer to being the kind of person whom I admired, and who I pretend to be today. +So, what will be my new response to the realities of my life? I think that I will have to learn to understand my place in the world and be contented with it. I have a poem that I plan to publish in the Survivor Contest in which I am an ordinary, unadorned jug fashioned by the potter's hands for his own use. I may not be the most beautiful piece that he has created, but since he made me for himself he put his very best work into me, regardless of what others may think. I have to see myself as that potter and simultaneously my life as the clay jug. I may put out phenomenal effort at work, and for my family and friends, but in a way, my best work will have to be the life that I carve out for myself. +So, I've been thinking about it and I plan to do the following: +-Acknowledge that I am disappointed with how things have turned out +-Gain Perspective: Ask myself why it was that I expected things to turn out otherwise +-Seek solutions +For it is only in these simple steps that regain control and move to the next level of my journey up in life. +1\. Acknowledge that I am disappointed with how things have turned out: +""If we will be quiet and ready enough, we shall find compensation in every disappointment."" - Henry David Thoreau +For me, the first step in overcoming disappointment is to acknowledge, honestly, that I am disappointed in how things have turned out. I think that this is important because I believe that if I mislabel my emotions, I will not be able to deal with them effectively. Disappointment can come in many guises: depression, anger, resentment toward others and apathy. In a way, I think that disappointment is more complex than any of these because it often encompasses all of these emotional states. +By acknowledging that I am disappointed I give myself permission to be angry or unhappy, jealous or resentful. These emotions are no longer shadows lurking in the background of my subconscious. I have turned the full blaze of my scrutiny on them, and acknowledged them, and so made myself ready to deal with them. I have taken a step away from my funk toward genuine maturity. +2\. Gain Perspective: Ask myself why it was that I expected things to turn out otherwise: +""I give and give, even when I get nothing back - and that sets me up for disappointment. "" - Angie Stone +So, having acknowledged that I am not happy with the way in which things have turned out I have to understand why it is that I feel this way. If you think about it seriously, life happens, so why is it that I wanted more? Why did I expect to have all my stories rated 'Hot' on Literotica? Why did I think that my child would be in the gifted rather than the special needs programme at school? Why did I expect that my partner would marry me? Why did I expect a straight A average at school or to be the Vice President of the company after five years? These are all worthy goals and there is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting the green leaves in life. +The truth is that I believe, and I am sure that there are few people anywhere in the world who would contradict me, that I deserve to be happy in this life. My disappointment indicates that I have defined what happiness means to me and have operationalized it in terms of these indicators. I have then measured my standard of happiness against these ideals and determined my response to my life based upon the results of these tests. There is nothing wrong with that per se. The problem though is if I have made mistakes in deciding what is truly important in life and so chosen wrong indicators. +I remember vaguely a story from my primary school reader in which a man was approached by a spirit of some sort and offered the choice of 'success without skill' or 'skill without success' in his ability to play the bagpipes. Without hesitation, he opted to have skill without success and so was granted outstanding skill and very great success. He became the most gifted of the McCrimmon pipers because he knew what was genuinely most important in life. I may have been very young when I read that, but that story has haunted me greatly throughout my life and so I have always wanted to have skill in everything that I do even if I have no success in anything. I have had to draw on this resolve in recent months in virtually every sphere of my life, and it is only because I remember what my true measure of success is that I have managed to survive. +3\. Seek solutions: +""Burning desire to be or do something gives us staying power - a reason to get up every morning or to pick ourselves up and start in again after a disappointment. - Marsha Sinetar +This is not to say that I have not had to lean on the shoulders of others. I have had many of you here on Lit spend time talking me down from the proverbial ledge. Many of you suspected that my brave smiles and playful nature masked the face of someone in great pain. You were kind to me when I couldn't be kind to myself and for this I thank you. I have chosen to surround myself with more of you instead of retreating into my private space to lick my wounds. +With my new understanding and acceptance of myself and the things that are most important to me I have welcomed new people into my life and found genuine delight in their company. Through this social growth I have found a slew of new friends who have reminded me about the things that I enjoy. My friends on The Playground are WONDERFUL, but some of my disappointment is that I often get left behind when their interests move on, or for that matter, if mine do. I may not have set the place alight with my stories and poems, but I have found some amazing new friends on other fora through which I would never have done if I hadn't stepped out and reached for something that was just beyond my grasp. My disappointment in the results of that leap of faith is what has brought them to me, since, were I more successful, we would have passed each other like ships in the night. +There is other, more personal psychological growth too. With my new maturity, I will not ascribe blame for my limiting circumstances to anyone else because this solves nothing. Even if someone else had a significant part to play in the outcome of my life the truth is that at the bottom line, my progress and my happiness, are my responsibility. I was the co-dependent person who did not move on when I realised years ago that my relationship was going nowhere. I was the one who allowed that opportunity at work or in life to pass me by! +As painful as it is, I have to be honest with myself about the effort that I made to make things work. Did I work hard enough to deserve that promotion? Did I really put enough spice into that sex scene for that story on this erotica site? Did I study enough for that exam? Have I really paid as much attention to my partner or to my friends as I think I have? Did I buy a ticket to see Jamaica qualify or to support the West Indies cricket team? Have I encouraged the right people in my life? If the answer to any of these questions casts me in a bad light then I will have to mourn my failures and learn to forgive myself as I would do my child if (s)he made a mistake for remember, I am the first child whom I ever loved. I have to extend a helping hand up in the form of consolation in the lesson learned from the situation, and celebrate mentally the fact that I am a stronger and wiser person for having learned that moral. +There is nothing magical about overcoming disappointment. There is nothing that I can do to banish disappointment permanently from my life except to die, and since I have no plans to do that anytime soon I have to learn to roll with life's punches. My attitude to life and my quest for happiness have to change. I cannot accept that I will never, ever be happy in life again if I am told that I will never have children of my own. I cannot stay down after being fired or after my spouse leaves me. I must not die myself if my child does, no matter how much I may want to. For to do that, I will allow the rest of my life to slip away unlived, and I will wake up one day aged 100, an EXTREMELY disappointed old lady." +702,Parenting a Down Syndrome child,Iamcanadian28,How To,2008-07-13,2008-07-13,2022-01-04 08:37:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/parenting-a-down-syndrome-child,One author's advice on parenting Down Syndrome children.,['Parenting How-To'],3.83,"_*This article is from my experience, I am not a doctor or any type of medical professional*_ +* +Imagine you are the brand new parents of a bouncing baby boy or girl. Everything went fine through the delivery; the baby is a good weight and looks healthy. You've finished counting fingers and toes and then the doctor breaks the bad news. Your otherwise healthy looking child has a well-known condition; Down syndrome. That dreaded extra chromosome. Even the term Down Syndrome carries a negative connotation. +The doctor explains the situation to you but you can barely take in all the information about what has happened to your child. The vast array of medical problems that your child may have, or could develop, as they get older can be overwhelming. My wife experienced a lot of self-questioning after he was born. How could this happen to me? I'm not an older mother. Everything was fine through my entire pregnancy. These and many more thoughts are likely running through your mind as you come to grips with everything you are being told. +Some of the health concerns are very real and immediate. Children with Down Syndrome have a higher incidence of congenital heart defects. Our son Christopher had to endure open-heart surgery when he was four months old to correct large holes and leaky valves. After several agonizing hours and his little body full of tubes, his heart was working properly. It was by far the darkest day of my life. +Their will come a time when you have to share your child's diagnosis with friends and family. The responses we received ranged from shock and disbelief, to very supportive. One response to be prepared for is the ""special parent"" comments. We heard on many occasions that special children were born to special parents. We didn't feel any different from when we had our first child. As parents, we are dealt the hand we are given and have no choice but to rise to the challenge. There are no other acceptable options to us. +The stigma that Down Syndrome has attached to it largely comes from previous generations. The belief at that time was that they were somewhat inadequate and should be isolated and treated as though it were a disease. The children were taken from their parents and institutionalized instead. Education often wasn't provided and very few individuals with Down Syndrome were integrated into the mainstream community. +The current situation is very different. Children with Down Syndrome attend regular public school classes like every other child. Many will gain employment and live independently from their parents when they reach adulthood. Some even get married. It is true that very few people with Down Syndrome go on to have children but many experience lives similar to the rest of us. +Keeping this in mind, here are some tips to make things easier for yourself and your child: +1. **Research** One of the best things we ever did was to find out as much about Down Syndrome as we possibly could. There is a lot of resource material available at your local library and bookstores. One book I would recommend you read is ""Babies with Down Syndrome: A New Parents Guide, 2nd Edition"". The book discusses health concerns, child development and teaches you early intervention methods. It also discusses legal issues that surround children with Down Syndrome such as setting up trusts, wills and guardianship. +There are many reasons why research is so important and they may not all be obvious. Firstly, you want to know as much about it as possible so you will be prepared for any of the health or development issues should they arise. Secondly, you are going to need this information for dealing with friends and family. Chances are many of them will have incorrect preconceived notions of what life will be like for a Down Syndrome child. +Finally, the more you understand the condition, the better you can communicate with their doctors. Doctors are very critical components of any special needs child's life. They often speak in a way that is difficult to follow. The better grasp you have of his condition, the easier it will be to follow what they tell you. +2. **Accepting the diagnosis** This is the hardest thing for a lot of people to get past. It is easy to get into the routine of blaming yourself, each other, the child, god or many other things. It can be very difficult to accept that your child is the less than ""perfect"" person you were hoping for before they were born. There are expectations that we as parents have for our children that need to be adjusted for children with Down Syndrome. They develop slower than other children do and may never reach the point of leaving home. It can be a lot to deal with, but eventually for you and your child, learn to accept them as they are. +3. **Meet other parents** Chances are there is a local Down Syndrome society chapter near you, no matter where you live. They hold all sorts of get-together events where you can meet other parents who are dealing with the same situation as you are. These events can be great fun and provide a solid support network for you and your child. It also allows your child to interact with other children facing similar issues. The annual Buddy walk is a great way to promote Down Syndrome awareness and raise money as well. +4. **Your child is not the Syndrome** There is a reason why I refer to them as children with Down Syndrome instead of Down Syndrome children. They are as varied in the personalities as you and I. Much like everyone else, they resemble their families more than they do each other. There is much more to the life of a child with Down Syndrome than the challenges they are presented with on a daily basis. They have the same needs for love, support, playtime and affection as other children. +5. **Advocate for your child** Whether it's at school or for a government program, we have to advocate for our special needs children. Sometimes that means making some noise and taking a stand. The school systems goal is to meet the needs of the majority of children. This often means that children, both exceptional and delayed, do not get their needs fully met. They will likely need an additional worker provided by the school in order to be a regular participant in class. In a more rural area, like where I live, there can be a shortage of funding and trained personnel. This may mean a prolonged battle with the school so be prepared for it. +6. **Get a good doctor** Pediatricians are not all created equal. Make sure you get a good one even if you have to shop around. This is important because chances are you're going to be seeing them a lot and it can make your life so much easier. We were lucky that the first pediatrician we went to was amazing and had a very thorough understanding of our situation. He referred us immediately to a heart specialist and followed everything through ensuring that we received the proper care. He recommended other specialists for vision and hearing related issues. Other friends of ours have not been so lucky and have had to learn this process the hard way. +7. **Look into Government programs** No matter where you live there are likely a variety of government programs designed to help parents of children with special needs. There is also a good chance that you will have to find out about many of them on your own. There are some programs here in Canada that provide financial assistance, physiotherapy, a one-on-one support worker and even a worker to watch your child for a short time. +8. **Prepare for ignorant people** Learn to ignore people who make uninformed comments about your child. If you must respond, do so in an effort to help educate them. The root of ignorance as always is a lack of understanding of the situation. +Friends of ours recounted a time they were in a restaurant with their daughter and she was being rambunctious as young children are. Sitting at the table next to them was an older couple. When the wife looked over and realized their daughter had Down Syndrome she said ""Oh, she's one of those"". The parents were understandably upset and not very happy. The good thing that came out of the situation was the woman's husband came over later in their meal and apologized for her rudeness. He even paid for their dinner. This goes to show that even though some people can be rude, people in general can still be kind to each other. +9. **Do not compare children** One of the most difficult challenges of having a child with Down Syndrome is to not compare them to other children; particularly their brothers and sisters. This is entirely unfair. Most likely, they will develop at a slower rate in everything they do. Their milestones are set completely different from other children. They will eventually do all the things that other children do, just at their own pace. +There are also several benefits to having a child with Down Syndrome. While these children tend to struggle more than most with everything they have to learn, the satisfaction you get as a parent from watching them succeed is immeasurable. They are so proud of themselves for even the smallest accomplishments because they have to work hard for everything. +You also learn to appreciate the small things that most people take for granted. Children with Down Syndrome tend to be more grounded and notice every little detail around them. Even medically there are several advantages that Down Syndrome provides to partially offset the challenges it imposes. They have remarkably low rates of addiction particularly to drugs and alcohol. Rates of many types of cancer are also enormously lower than in the general population. +With a vast array of medical testing available, the majority of expectant mother's will know that their child has Down Syndrome before they are even born. One of the problems in the medical community is the lack of knowledge at the family doctor level. The prevailing wisdom is that the potential medical problems that accompany Down Syndrome are not worth continuing the pregnancy. Many expectant only hear about the drawbacks of having a special needs child without ever having the benefits discussed. +I hope this article has been helpful and if anyone wants more information feel free to message me." +703,Parts of Speech,velvetpie,How To,2005-02-09,2005-02-09,2022-01-04 08:37:24,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/parts-of-speech-pt-01,"1.

Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. **\--William Strunk, Jr.**_ +For anyone trying to learn the art of writing, William Strunk's words may seem easy but for those of us who have been practicing this art, it can sometimes seem an impossible task. By reading the works of other authors and constantly seeking to educate ourselves can we become better writers. In reading some of the works of others on this site, I have noticed quite a few common grammatical mistakes that bring the loveliest and most interesting stories low. +Everyone makes mistakes and this is my sincere attempt to aid beginners as well as advanced writers in correcting some of the more common grammatical mistakes that occur everyday. +* * * * * + **PARTS OF SPEECH** +There are eight parts of speech: nouns, verbs, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions and interjections. + ** _NOUNS_** +According the Schoolhouse Rock (and our English teachers), a noun is a person, place or thing, but there are also different types of nouns. Common, proper, count ... well, let's take them one at a time. + **Common** nouns are just anything you can imagine and here are some examples: peacock, apple, mother, car. Some of these can also be called ** _count_** nouns if they have singular and plural forms, such as apple and its plural form, apples. ** _Non-count_** nouns have no plural forms and don't add an –S on the end. A few examples are homework and typing. +A **proper** noun is a noun that is capitalized to indicate a specific title or name, such as Mary orCaptain John. + **Concrete** nouns are things that physically exist, such as car, telephone or table. An **abstract** noun gives a name to a quality, idea or characteristic such as failure or goodness. Finally, **compound** nouns are composed of more than one word, such as living room or grocery bag. +The last group of nouns are used but not widely classified. A **collective** noun names a group such as sheep or group. In some cases, it can be made plural but the singular word signifies more than one of the object. A **mass** noun is something that can not be counted. Examples of these nouns would be water or gasoline. + ** _VERBS_** +A verb is a word that shows action. It can also be described as a word that shows movement or time. Verbs also have a _tense_ which tells when the events take place. Tenses such as present, past and future and are broken down into simple, perfect, continuous and perfect continuous. Continuous and Perfect Continuous are also considered as _progressive_ verbs. You won't hear people walking around naming the tenses but if you take a language, you will also have to learn these. Some verbs can also be **count** verbs. +Some common tenses and examples: using the word MOVE with HE/SHE as the pronoun. Keep in mind that the words are dependent on the pronoun used. For example, when using I as the pronoun, the PRESENT SIMPLE tense would be I MOVE as opposed to HE MOVES. + **Simple** +Present – MOVES (a same action that is taking place and may happen again in the future) +Past – MOVED (an action that has already taken place and will not happen again) +Future – WILL MOVE (an action that will happen in the future) + **Perfect** +Present Perfect – HAS MOVED (an action that has already taken place in the past and may happen again in the future or to show how long something has occurred) +Past Perfect – HAD MOVED (an action that took place in the past before another event) +Future Perfect – WILL HAVE MOVED (an action that has not happened yet but will happen within a specified amount of time) + **Continuous** +Present Continuous – IS MOVING (an action that is happening right now) +Past Continuous – WAS MOVING (an action that was happening when something else occurred) +Future Continuous – WILL BE MOVING (an action that will be happening when something else happens) + **Perfect Continuous** +Present Perfect Continuous – HAVE BEEN MOVING (an action that has been happening and will continue to happen) +Past Perfect Continuous – HAD BEEN MOVING (an action that shows how long something had been happening before something else occurred) +Future Perfect Continuous – WILL HAVE BEEN MOVING (an action that shows how long something will have been happening by a specified time in the future) + +" +704,The Perfect Cock Stroker,Gonzomonger,How To,2021-07-21,2021-07-21,2022-01-04 08:40:14,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-perfect-cock-stroker,My quest for the perfect masturbator.,"['Cum', 'Jack', 'Masturbation', 'Orgasm', 'Sperm', 'Stroker', 'Tube']",4.1,"Several years ago I got divorced and had to move in to an apartment with two other roommates, friends I had made back in college. It was a good fit, but one of my roommates, Jeremy, worked from home, so I rarely had any sort of privacy. I slowly began dating and getting my head back on straight after a really horrible five year marriage. I was always a pretty active masturbator, but after my divorce I seemed to go into overdrive. I was craving sexual release three, sometimes four times a day. I found it increasingly challenging to find a place to do a lot of jerking off at the level I was wanting. I really enjoy edging for two or three hours sometimes, so disappearing into my bedroom for hours on end tended to be difficult to explain. Ideally I averaged orgasming about 3 times a day, the 4th was always a bonus, so my two roommates regular presence guaranteed little to no privacy for long stroking sessions. +Sometimes I was lucky if I got to cum just once a day, which kept me really keyed up almost constantly. I got laid occasionally and had a few girlfriends for a month or two, but never really found anyone serious that was as kinky or as perpetually horny as I was. Part of the problem in the bedroom was the fact that I wanted hour-long blowjobs, a challenge most women have trouble meeting. I was totally willing to reciprocate though. I could eat pussy until my lips were numb, but most girls pussies get a bit tender after 30 minutes of being chewed and sucked. Go figure! +I did a lot of bicycling in those days to stay in shape and reduce my stress level and collected a hell of a lot of flat tires over several years of off- road biking. Most of these blown tubes I changed myself and a pile of inner- tubes which would never hold air again slowly collected in the corner of my storage shed where I made repairs. Being the hardcore cock-stroker that I am I eventually started wondering what it would feel like to lube up and fuck the smooth, black, inner linings of these soft rubber tubes. +The first thing I had to figure out was which tubes would fit me. At first glance, most of the older 10-speed tubes were far too small for my stiff cock to penetrate, much less screw comfortably. I took some quick measurements. My cock is right at an even eight full inches long when full erect. I first tried to measure the width with a ruler but found that the closer I pressed the ruler across my cock, the wider the width got as I pressed against it, giving me a wider than accurate reading. I solved this problem by taking the circumference of my fully engorged cock with string, and then measuring the length of the string. It ended up being 5.25 inches around. I applied some quick geometry to this to determine my cock diameter to be 1.7 inches wide fully hardened. +I was in luck. I had salvaged several wrecked rims over the years from old bikes and bike parts I had collected, and pulled out a 26 inch 1.5-2.0 tube and a 26 inch 1.75-2.25 tube. I cut a foot long length of tubing from each tube and shoved each one down a 8 x 2 inch piece of PVC. I wrapped the 2 inch pieces of rubber tubing that stuck out of each end of the PVC back onto the outside of the pipe and secured each end with rubber bands. +Now I had two homemade pussies of varying tightness. They made me hard in my shorts just looking at them, knowing how I was going to be abusing them soon in ways that were never intended. Late that afternoon I threw my new toys in my backpack with a jar of Vaseline and a towel and biked out to the old abandoned drive-in theatre in the woods behind my neighborhood. +The little dirt road leading out to the old drive-in was overgrown with weeds and washed out, so it was rare that anyone ever found a reason to drive out there anymore. Occasionally some moron with a spray can would graffiti up the place with their nickname, or some clever foul exclamation, but otherwise it had become long forgotten and had closed back in 1980 when the six screen multiplex opened across town. The marquis at the edge of highway 84 on the edge of town was so overgrown and obscured with trees and brush it could barely be seen any more. The roof of the projection building had fallen in years earlier and the tiny concession shack had long since collapsed into a rotting heap of wood and rusted nails. A few leaning 3 foot metal poles still stood in rows, minus the projection speakers which once hung from them. +The giant projection screen was torn in multiple places and graffiti lined the lower edge. The rear of the theatre screen had a small narrow room at the lower base, spanning the length of the screen. This access area had allowed theatre workers to periodically make adjustments and perform maintenance to the back of the screen whenever needed. The best part about this little closeted sanctuary was the old wood hinged door that still opened and closed reasonably well and could be locked from the inside! This long tiny closet is where I would spend many long in disturbed sessions stroking, edging, and blowing countless loads across the back side of the movie screen that thousands of people had once viewed untold numbers of great movies on from the comfort of their cars. Most of my friends and roommates assumed I spent my alone vigorously time biking in the woods, which I did, just not as long as they supposed. +Not long after first discovering the old drive-in in the woods I found a discarded twin mattress in reasonably decent shape, that had been thrown out by a neighbor. After about 20 minutes of effort I had managed to drag it back through the wood-line to my theatre screen maintenance closet. After rescuing the mattress, I slapped my own personal lock on the door to keep unwanted looters and animals out. My usual routine was to roll my bike inside the tiny room, close and lock the door, and strip down naked next to the mattress on the floor. I usually kept the place well swept, and periodically cleared unwanted insects and cobwebs away so I could have a fairly clean and private, jack-off sanctuary. There was plenty of light shining through the various holes in the projection screen on the right side of the room and it was never too hot inside. My stiff cock usually cast a huge shadow on the across the wall from the light shining through the holes in the opposite wall. +The first time I went all the way to orgasm, my hands shook in anticipation as I pulled out my new PVC toys and lubed both of them up with a generous dollop of Vaseline. I had started stroking my eager penis until I was so excited I had to fuck something immediately. I grabbed the 1.75-2.25 tube and penetrated it. Under the mattress I had stashed 8 or 9 well used porn magazines, which I pulled out and started browsing through. I turned to some of my favorite girls that excited me the most, lay on my back, and spread my legs wide as I thrust my horny red dick in and out of my new fuck toy. +The first tube was a really nice and slick screw. My legs trembled as my cock slid in and out of the greasy interior just as I had hoped. It felt really incredible. There was barely any tension on the rubber material except on the far end every time my cock withdrew outward between strokes. The rubber bands kept each end very secure, and I was able to keep a really steady rhythm going. I quickly began accumulating globs of Vaseline at the far end as my cock pushed more and more of it out the end with every stroke. I would need to develop some sort of reservoir built in to the end so I wouldn't lose my lube. I made loud, sexy smacking noises with every stroke, which sounded incredibly erotic and I enjoyed watching my shadow on the wall, making it crystal clear what was going on. Every so often I would collect lube from the end and redeposit it back at the top, which made new strokes incredibly more creamy. After about 10 minutes of this I was moaning and grunting loudly from pleasure. I felt a hard orgasm building in my abdomen and I damn nearly came, so I backed off and switched to the second stroker with the 1.5-2.0 tube once my cock could handle the renewed stimulation. +Entering this one made me gasp with pleasure. It was noticeably tighter around my sensitive, red penis. The black rubber stretched nicely as my slick engorged cock slowly expanded it just enough as it slid into the accepting orifice. Stroking this way was a slower process that required more force to enter and exit because of the increased resistance. Heat from the steady friction built up much faster than with my previous stroker, which was a welcome feeling, simulating a warm vagina. I wasn't losing my lubricant through the sheath and out the end nearly as quickly either as with my previous tool. +I lay down across the mattress and went at it with the tighter stroker and my favorite fuck mag. It was great. I pounded so hard my arm got tired and I had to swap out with my left hand periodically, never losing a stroke the entire time. After fantasizing about a skinny freckled redhead chick with huge pendulous pussy lips for awhile, I just lay my magazine to the side and slowly pleasured my slick pole up and down with both hands. My steady pounding in the greasy tube made slick, smacking sounds, which echoed loudly up through the long narrow room, bouncing off the dark ceiling nearly 30 feet above me. +I slowly thumbed through another porn mag. Old favorites spread their pink hairless pussies for me as I fantasized at how incredible it would feel as I screwed their perfect fuck-holes. Finally, I couldn't resist the urge to cum any longer and edged right over the cliff. I pumped my cock to an explosive orgasm. My legs shook from pleasure as three long arcs of cum blasted from the end of my tube into the air and in multiple directions. Thick sperm dripped from the end of my stroker and onto my greasy right hand. The orgasm completely drained me, and I lay nude on my back for nearly 10 minutes, teething heavily, my semi-hardened cock still firmly buried deep in my warm tube. I slowly extricated my member. Gooey, potent-smelling sperm and watery cum dripped from the tip of my red, sensitive cock onto my greasy pelvis. +As soon as I recovered I read an article I had been meaning to read and then jerked off for a second round which was as satisfying as the first. My second orgasm I deposited in the wider tube after a long 20 minute stroking session with a sexy young black chick with huge, dark aerolas who had buried two fingers in her hairy wet pussy. I eventually dressed, packed up my gear, and made my way back home. +Once I had cleaned my new strokers up a little I made a few modifications. At one point on the exterior of my wider 1.75-2.25 tubes was two sets of three, raised ridges, which encircled the tube circumference. I removed the tube from the PVC and cut out a new 12 inch section, which positioned one set of ridges at the 4 inch point and another set farther down around 8 inches down. I turned the tubing inside-out so the ridges would now be on the inside. Then I reassembled my toy with rubber bands on each end. +This time I didn't bother going out to the drive-in. I quickly lined the interior up with Vaseline and shoved my hard cock through the top right there in the shed. As my sensitive head slid past the first series of ridges I shuttered from the pleasure. Then I shoved all the way to the end and slid past the second ridge group. The feeling of the thin ridges was incredible. I pulled out and stroked back and forth more quickly. The feeling was electrifying as pleasure pulsed throughout my body. Every millimeter of my slick shaft felt the tiny ridges stimulating every nerve ending as It slid past, and I stroked in and out with abandon. I only lasted about two minutes before I convulsed streams of warm sperm over the top and down the sides of the tube onto my hand. +Eventually I got my finances back under control again and got my own apartment. My sex life got better and my masturbatory frequency went up. I was cumming either in someone's mouth or vagina, or in my toys on an average of about 25 times a week. +I rarely jerked off just by hand. I took my tighter stroker with me on trips and it remained my go-to for nearly a year straight. I regularly fucked the holy shit out of both of my PVC pussies between my mattress and box spring on a regular basis, often just leaving them in place after an orgasm for the next round, still smelling of cum, wrapped in a towel. It was erotic to think about heading home and knowing they were waiting for me between my bed, wide open and ready to service me. I would wake up every morning and roll over for a quickie before my shower, and again before I went to sleep at night. Sometimes I even came home from work for lunch, just to get a quickie in. +I would swap back and forth between the two whenever I wanted a change of sensation and my own sperm from previous orgasms the morning or night before would lubricate the insides of my insatiable twin fuck-sluts. Eventually I added a Fleshlight as a third and would go up and down the side of my mattress, screwing my naughty trio of lovers until one of my hungry gooey bitches took my hot load of cum. When I found the right hole I knew I wanted, I would sink inside to the hilt and make slow rhythmical thrusts until I exploded. Sometimes I would pull out and stroke my glistening penis by hand until my climax built, then penetrate the winner at the last second to deposit my cum. Wrapping each stroker end in a towel was a great way to control the angle beneath the mattress as well as collecting my cum shots. +After about 20-30 uses, the black rubber tubing began to soften up and thicken as it absorbed the petroleum I used to lubricate them. Eventually the tubing split apart at the ends where it wrapped over the edges of the PVC. Covering the end edges with some sort of padding prior to stretching the rubber tubing back over the ends seemed to prolong the life of the rubber a little longer and really enhanced comfort when pounding them hard and deep, and fully penetrating all the way to my pelvis. +Despite my satisfaction with my new fuck toys, always stayed on the lookout for new sensations. I was too embarrassed to buy the real thing in a sex shop. I eventually came across a huge five pound block of grey modeling clay and molded my first homemade pussy with it. It was crude and heavy, but very effective and satisfying. I have a solid 8"" cock, fully erect, so I formed the clay into an 8"" cylinder and drilled a hole down the length of it to screw. After penetrating it with my stiff cock I could essentially squeeze it to my desired shape, forming a snug, comfortable sheath, perfect for screwing. All I had to do for lubricant was fill a small spray bottle with water, and send a few fine mist squirts down the shaft every 15 minutes or so. After about 7 or 8 strokes with my cock, the clay inside the shaft became soft, wet, and creamy, and I was then able to fuck the hell out of it's gooey interior. +One drawback with my toy was the mess the wet clay sometimes made after a prolonged stroke session, primarily the gooey slurry that built up inside the end of the sheath, the longer I stroked. After a few minutes going at it hard, a wet, sludgy, mud began to collect at the end of the cylinder and occasionally oozed out the end. I was able to extend the amount of time it took for the mixture to accumulate by stretching the cylinder out to 12"" in length. The wet clay interior slowly began to dry as soon as I stopped spraying water down the shaft and creating more mud. My cock pistoning in and out acted like a vigorous mixing spoon, slowly generating the stuff. After 24 hours the water evaporated and the sludge mixture inside returned to it's original clay consistency, leaving a smooth, slick interior, ready for my next session. Another drawback to my clay stroker was that I wasn't able to slip back and forth between my clay and my PVC or Fleshlight without heavily soiling them. +Orgasms were really incredible and satisfying. Being so readily moldable I could constantly regulate the tightness of the clay along any point, as my horny shaft repeatedly probed it's slick fuck tunnel. Despite the post-orgasm mess I regularly had to deal with, I was happy with this little marriage for several years. Usually all I had to do was blow a load inside the shaft and clean my dick off in the sink with a wet wash rag when I was done. +Being highly moldable I discovered I could insert my clay pussy into just about anything fuckable and screw myself cross-eyed. At one point I found an old white styrofoam wig holder in the shape of a woman's face that beauticians typically placed on display in their shops. I carved out a huge styrofoam orifice around the mouth and then shoved my clay pussy inside the face hole. I picked up a long black witches wig from a costume store and pulled it over the top of the styrofoam head and then I had a face to fuck with long black hair! I grabbed the the hair with one hand and the back of the neck with the other and skull-fucked it's wet clay mouth hard until I blew countless loads of cum deep inside of it. I proudly considered myself an official perv after a few months of this, and got a twisted pleasure setting my freshly abused head back on my nightstand and watching my hot sperm ooze from its clay mouth onto the dresser top. +Since my first creative days I have created a few new strokers, but never gave up my early favorites. Hope this gives someone some great ideas. Enjoy!" +705,Perfection,37,How To,2012-02-02,2012-02-02,2022-01-04 08:37:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/perfection-16,"How to give someone, namely me, a perfect 10 minutes!","['Instructional', 'Oral']",3.5,"So the crickets on, you're bored, and I'm not paying enough attention to you. I have a beer in front of me and you want to do something, but you know you're going to get shot down in favor of what you consider is one of the most boring spectator sports on earth. +Here's what you do. +While I'm sitting on the couch watching TV, Sit down next to me, resting your head on my shoulder. After a few seconds, not minutes, lean in and kiss me on the cheek and neck. If I turn in to respond, turn my head back and concentrate on the side of my head so I can continue to watch TV. While kissing, guide your hand down my chest to my pants. Lightly trace over the growing bulge in my pants and down my leg a bit, but then go straight back up and play with the bulge a bit till it feels like the start of an erection. +Then grab a pillow, put it on the ground in front of me and pass me the drink that's on the coffee table. Make sure the remote's in reach and then get straight down on your knees on the pillow. Undo my pants gently, but not slowly. Work them down and when there is enough room to get to my cock, stop. Look me in the eye and say ""Relax"". Then lean forward out of the way of the TV so I can still see it. +Run your teeth and lips over the outline of my cock through the boxers, and push your hands up into hem from the bottom. Lightly play with my balls and the base of my cock as you try to get the tip in your mouth with the boxers covering it and fail. Glance up at me, frown, then smile and wink. Pull your hands out of the shorts and pull the boxers down, without raising your head. Remember, the cricket's on. +Kiss the tip, then all the way down to the base without touching it. Then lick the sides, then the middle, from the bottom up, following the vein that runs up it, slowly. If it jumps and hits you in the nose or face, giggle, and try to make it do it again. This can be a reflex action, but it is also something I can make it do, so if you're doing a good job, you will get hit with it again. Note, if you're not, you won't, but you will feel my hand on the back of your head, guiding you to what I really want. +If you do, when it jumps again, giggle again, play with it, but work closer to the tip. When it stops, slowly run your tongue from the base towards the top, slipping your hand under it, and pull it up. When your tongue hits the head, slowly put as much of the penis in your mouth as you can, keeping your lips tight and your teeth well out of the way. +(Note: Nothing ruins a good blowjob quicker than feeling teeth!) +Slowly pull back up, squeezing the penis with your lips as you go. When you get to the tip, gently pull off, take a deep breath and repeat. After the second descent, slowly start your sucking, keeping your head moving slowly and your lips tight around the shaft. Run your tongue around the head every now and then, but for the deeper descents, press it to the shaft. The more contact the better. +At this point, lean back and take your top and your bra off. Don't show me your tits, I don't want you to parade them for me, I would rather you continue, but it will at least give me a little visual stimulation and hint at the fact you are enjoying this too. If I reach out to feel them, let me, but put my cock straight back in your mouth. +Then start varying what you are doing. Speed up and then slow down. Try some short bobs on the tip, sucking hard, then take the cock as far into your mouth as you can. If you feel it hit the back of your throat and you can't get it past, vary the angle of your neck, and try a swallowing action or another throat movement until you do. If that doesn't work, pull up, taking the penis out of your mouth, look me in the eye and say ""I'm sorry, I'm trying really hard but I can't. Can I go on anyway?"" When I say yes, continue with what you were doing before, but still try it again every now and then. +If you do get it into your throat, that's not the end of the exercise. Clamp your lips around the base and slowly pull up. Then descend again, and hold. Then suck, as much as you possibly can, till you start to choke. When you can't hold it any more pull up quick. If you have to cough, do so away from me, then say ""Sorry, can you still see the cricket?"" and wait for my response. Then go back down onto my cock and continue sucking. +Keep varying your techniques but it is important to remember not to take my cock out of your mouth unless you absolutely have to. It is a blowjob, not a hand job, so don't cop out! +Once you feel the buildup to my orgasm, slowly increase the tempo and the pressure of your sucking. As the orgasm hits, draw up to the tip of the penis slowly, but don't stop there. Catch the semen with your tongue and swallow what you can, but at the same time very slowly descend onto it again, just a short way. Continue the sucking, getting the rest of the semen and swallow all of it. Then place your hand at the base of the penis and press your thumb into the large vein. Gently but firmly run your thumb up the vein with your mouth on the tip as you suck, so as to get all the residual semen out of the shaft. +Once you have gotten the last of it, lick it a few more times so as to clean it up, ensuring there is no leftover semen anywhere around the shaft, and pull the boxers back up. Hop back up on the couch and lay down, resting your head on my lap. Look up at me and say ""Thank you."" Kiss my cock through the boxers and roll over. +Then ask me what the score is, who's in and give it 5 minutes. After that, ask nicely if we can go out somewhere for a while.

Or perhaps, something steamy and titillating: ""How I Raped My Sister""—mimicking true confession magazine headlines—more intimate and appropriate for the avid readers of EROTICA, the realm of fictional lascivious affairs. +The history of literature narrated an enduring, controversial battle for public acceptance of stories (short stories, novels, and serials) with sex, or erotica, as subject matter. And this predicament was also true and shared by fine arts and commercial arts (painting, illustration, graphic design, photography, and comics) together with films, movies, or videos whether animation, live action, or documentary. +One can only read the tribulations of Marquis De Sade or the scandals that beset D.H. Lawrence, or the more modern writers with tinged of erotica in their works, to understand and appreciate the long arduous efforts the genre took...Which, in my humble opinion, is enjoying its most prolific and popular, if not phenomenal, acceptance this century through wide-open and encouraging receptions in Internet sites—from stories to art, to photography and comics, to movies and videos—regardless of quality or worth of the materials. +For there will always be unavoidable abuses in both writing and art when it comes to depiction of explicit sex, whether alone, with a partner, or in a group. Sex offers such a fascinating and challenging subject matter in which written or visual interpretations tend to go beyond the normal—favouring more the forbidden and strange—with the imagined depravities and fantasies all given vivid realities in the chosen medium. And in the trembling hands of an amateur enjoying the liberties stimulated by sex, the resulting erotica can be disastrous, if not ridiculous. +As always, the authors and artists were only flexing their playful creative skills, enjoying the delicious freedom to exercise their talents inspired by sex in both artistic mediums. Yet, as history clarified, were dutifully curbed, censored, and saddled with the constraints of resentful public opinions who felt the presented works were corrupting the morals of a given age. +But ever since man discovered his penis and recognized a vagina for a woman, we saw and understood, too, the pleasures of sex through these unique instruments—thank God for His blessings to us all! As one rams and digs, and the other swallows and enfolds, we have appreciated the enormous range of thrills these tools provided and brought us, whether by itself, together, or with the same kind. All free and addicting for everyone to use in any way it pleases them—in private, in public, with their love ones, with their friends, with their neighbours, strangers, relatives, or even with their pets. +For how else can one indulge in the unique abundant bliss these God-given personal instruments provide along with their accompanying enhancements for pleasures? For the man, a strong and rigid as a pipe implement: self- elongating—a lot longer and harder with extra coaxing, mind you—doubling often as towel holder in the showers. Then again, receding when not needed, and comes equipped with dual sacks of sensitive, fragile globules filled with the seeds of future generations meant for propagation. +For the woman, a self-lubricating, allow-all-size kind of magnificent device—so flexible, tantalizing, and utterly voracious (from beer can, soft drink bottle, one litre plastic bottle, even your fucking fist, for crying out loud!) and still exquisitely accommodating—it can spout out a new-born. Not to mention, its accompanying boosts of extremely gorgeous twin orbs, often the source of ogling and maddening fantasies early in youth, aside from the enviable duty of nurturing life itself. +Of course, one has to have some experience, either-or, before the enjoyment of it is tasted, savoured, and digested. Yet, just by taking a pee—even as a child who woke up in a chilly morning—one is bound to experience the intimate elegance of the delicious usage of this God-given instrument of life. +Didn't you wiggle your head when you peed? It's sometimes so strong that even your shoulders and arms went with the shudder. My circle of horny friends maintained that the wriggle felt each time when urinating is the most reliable gauge of one's virility, and as long as one experiences it, the certainty of the macho image—that much sought after erectile potency in bed—is assured for good. +Okay, I have used the ""God"" word several times already, and you might be thinking this is only my indulgent sermon on sex, disguised as an erotic, irreverent essay...but no. +Truth is, I think that is exactly where the problem started. The unnecessary, unfounded, and unsophisticated attempts to control and regulate two incomprehensible theories that do not mix, unite, or bond well together: GOD, as believed and championed by organized religions, complete with its admonitions of upholding purity and obedience, thus, advocating safeguarding one's morality—and SEX, as practiced and enjoyed by man, exercising his inherent carnal desires and cravings for procreation, empowered in his most intimate behaviours from the moment of his creation. +One idea is spiritual (God-Religion), while the other is physical (Man- Carnal). The former, perceived as good and righteous, and the latter, malicious and evil—entirely opposite each other in purpose and attitudes. And yet, if honestly scrutinized and studied, sex came from one benevolent source, as everything was created by God. Sex, therefore, was God's excellent gift to man, authorized and provided by Him for its own prearranged, multi-purpose manipulations for the fulfilment and enjoyment of His plans—thus, all-good—a man's birth right. +I must admit this controversial attitude of subjugating, suppressing, and practically controlling sex by means of almost fanatical religious adherence in some circles, organizations, or societies only added to the temptation of man luxuriating in the pleasures and thrills of the flesh. It becomes a luscious tang of ticklish, uninhibited, and forbidden delight—with man relishing, instead, the thought, performance, and indulgence of it—nearly going insane, if without sex for long periods of time. +I once worked for a marketing firm somewhere in the oil-rich, desert nations in the Middle East where unlawful sex (one is supposed to be married first to the woman) is forbidden and punishable by beheading in the public suq (market). Yet the old-timers told of a certain street in the city visited often by Arab women, scattered but waiting, hiding in the darker shadows after midnight. +Apparently, because of their harsh laws on entertainment, booze, sex, and marriage stoked by stern religious rules and rituals, the deprived women would offer themselves to anyone who passed by the vicinity—as long as these women retained their anonymity, their faces covered—only to satisfy their sexual needs. These women are rich and do not need the money, but craved the sex in any way they can get it. +Still, only the bravest and insane dared accept the challenge. Among us, who would want to lose our heads? (Even the woman, if caught, is beheaded). We consoled ourselves with our immoral thoughts; our raging desires kept secured and zipped inside our pants as we held vigil till past two in the mornings huddled in a car near the street corner—slobbering and dirty-imagining at the mere sight of veiled silhouettes appearing and losing themselves in hurried steps in the shadows. Damn, it's fucking free, yet the thought of one's head rolling in a basket is an excellent sexual deterrent. +Unfortunately, man in his bumbling, meddling, and inept intrusion into the sensitive domain of sex as a personal, private, exclusive affair between consenting (and none consenting) individuals regardless of age, sex, colour, creed, or political affiliations, muddied altogether the bright idea of the Almighty...And added fornication, copulation, masturbation, fellatio, cunnilingus, etc., as his noble contributions to the vocabulary of sex. Though much later and more scandalous, incorporated fuck, cock, cunt, pussy, tits, ass hole, blowjob, handjob, fingering, fisting, etc., which, admittedly, made the inhibited vocabulary more colourful, alive, and hot. +Thus, sex looked dirty, unsavoury, unhealthy, wrong, and more objectionable in the eyes of the righteous advocates and guardians of morality—those concerned individuals and groups intrigued of everyone's personal ethics and morals, and who perceived themselves as pillars of decency in any society. Not to include our parents who tried to guide us and fumbled, unsure of themselves on how to show the pleasures and dangers of early sex, as we grew up experimenting, exploring, and experiencing the sweet and bitter flavours of it—spiced up by erotica, of course. +Hence, we have the anxiety of Erotica to confront in every generation—a simmering subject described as debased, indecent, abnormal, sick, depraved, immoral, wicked, disgusting, evil, and other degrading labels and insults it enjoys carrying around its neck like gold medals after the Olympics. +The term, as a genre of writing and art, deals primarily with the intricacies of extreme, pleasurable, and fantasy-based sexual indulgences in varied acceptable, and not too acceptable, relationships—hence, the more forbidden, the more titillating and licentious. Of course, Porn, the twin gay brother of Erotica with his dirty finger muddying the pure ecstasies of his sister—their mother, sweet, calm, innocent Sincerity and the father, obnoxious, loutish, malicious Hypocrisy—is another more salacious and smouldering matter to consider, and I still want to live a happy, long life. +Yet, what is amusing and ridiculous in this convoluted predicament of Erotica as subject for stories either short, serialized, or a novel, is that everyone—reader, browser, patron, sponsor or even protester—is extremely curious of the content. And therefore, more than interested and attracted to it, as if they have already done what were presented or had more vast and wide-ranging experiences, than what were depicted. Each one guilty of enjoying the same, as if only looking for proofs, for confirmations, that what they have been doing were acceptable and pleasurable, satisfying and enduring, and thus, universal. +Not unless...the reader or viewer, is a curious innocent child. +During the end of my secondary education, and as part of military training in school, I was included to guard the national museum where an exhibition of paintings by the Masters (some were reproductions) was held. Throngs of students in all levels came each day, yet were often caught huddled in front of one huge printed copy (thank God!) of Francisco Goya's ""The Naked Maja"" (La Maja Desnuda). +The painting, nothing more but a reclining nude in a couch, is in full frontal and facing the painter when she sat and posed for the portrait. But truth is, there were two versions: this one, and ""The Clothed Maja"" (La Maja Vestida), which carried more suggestive erotic content in the stories told behind the pose. It was said that the woman was actually Goya's mistress, a duchess, the wife of a government high ranking official. And when the husband learned of the infidelity and sought after the truth—raiding Goya's studio in the process—found nothing but an excellent portrait of his wife, fully dressed in rich gown, looking lovelier than he expected to see, erasing his suspicions. +Yet, ""The Naked Maja"" exhibited in my country elicited more curiosity with the kids, that a concerned and scandalized mentor, well-meaning in his intentions, covered the nude's vagina with a piece of paper to give it a semblance of modesty, despite the laughter and ridicule of those who saw it. Then again, his gallantry ignited more disaster—the students started peeking inside the paper. +When museum personnel moved the painting from the lobby to the fourth floor since it became an attraction of malicious curiosity among the kids, we found more: Naughty students drew with their pencils, pens, or ball pens on the Maja's cunt, giving her a lush, unruly curtain of pubic hair. Yet, the reproduction suffered more—damaged by mischievous students eager to provide a hole for her pussy—tearing the paper and pushing their pens and pencils harder, fingering her until the wood backing showed through. +What can one expect from a country where religion is a dominant part of living, imposing strict rules on morals and sexual practices like any other Muslim or Catholic nation, inciting more curiosity than is warranted or necessary? +In my honest opinion, the greatest argument proffered by moralists for the acceptance of Erotica as a valid, honourable form of Literature is its corrupting qualities, i.e., its explicit depictions of sex that may lead to liberal indulgence, addiction, experimentation, practice of abnormal positions, forbidden relationships, number of sex partners, and the unavoidable encouragement of indifference or boredom with ""normal"" sex—as endorsed by the suggestive scenarios and other variations all creatively enhanced and painted by the writers. +Therefore, deemed destructive for everyone, especially children, who must be at least 15 or 18 years old and above, depending on the particular state laws or country, to be allowed to read or view it. +Wow! +I say wow in amazement because what gave the magic numbers 15 and 18 in age the license to read or view Erotica? Why are 14 year olds not included, and what did 16 and 17 have—the in-between ages among the privileged few—to be so special and rewarded? +Answer: They are thought to be of adult age, which means they know what is right from wrong, can already decide for themselves what is good or bad for them, and therefore, can tolerate or ignore the malice and perversion of the material, whether a book, video, cartoon, comics, or a movie...or booze, drugs, smoking, sex—ho-hum, wake me, before you go-go, when more pertinent rationalizations are offered. +Kids, ages 14 and below, unless one is blind or still living without Internet, dominated and proliferated most online sex and porn sites. They enjoy webcam clips and pics taken by themselves, or their professional videos posted in their own websites, and distributed throughout various links. No one will admit their true age but they are the stars of strip joints, clubs, prostitution dens, and porn films. In fact, the older ones—girls and boys 18 to 22—are straining with difficulty to imitate them physically so they can be popular, too, and become stars in porn videos. Ironic? Ask Alanis M., she already offered an array of choice definitions. +Fact is, in Japan, the dominant Hentai anime films and manga comics follow a standardized portrayal of girls. Each character, to look innocent, young, seductive, attractive, and oozing with the promised pleasures of sex, must be depicted as school girls in uniform. The design of the uniform almost patented and drawn to appear strictly similar in every material produced. The Japanese men, according to hentai artists, writers, publishers, and producers, tend to patronize more and favour anime and manga materials with young girls shown in school uniforms...And definitely, not 18 years old and above. +So what's this much ado about ""18 years old only and above"" in Western erotic writings? What's this fear of incest, rape, paedophilia, or bestiality as topic in erotic stories or novels when each one is fiction—a work of sexual fantasy—clearly understood by the imposed mature age limitation? Several online sites strictly prohibited incest, paedophilia, bestiality, interracial, rape, sodomy, necrophilia while they blatantly advertised accepting BDSM, MILF, mechanical toys, paranormal, vampires, or other more perverted sexual relationships in stories—sex with horny, slimy aliens, anyone? +Most popular print publishers and sites for online erotic novels and short stories specifically forbid the topics stated above and strictly imposed the age limit for readers or members, even for the characters inhabiting a story. Why? Why the hypocrisy—why the constraints when one is writing erotica? It is like saying one cannot mention ""corruption"" when writing about politics, or ""holiness"" when it is about religion. Were they too cautious so as not to fall out of favour from the mighty authorities or offend the sensibilities of everyone? +The answer is both, because there are risks...Dangers, neither undeniable nor unavoidable, that merit well the constraints. There are more sensitive repercussions involved if the gates of restrictions in erotica are blown open for writers and artists to wallow and enjoy. With each writer/artist intoxicated of the freedom and authority to do and explore whatever depravity and perversion they chose—in any age or gender—more mud and muck than credible gems of extraordinary erotic works will come to fore. +And where the dirt thrown for public consumption can be horrendously influential to sick and depraved individuals with uncanny sexual preferences, fetishes, or orientations, initiating more criminalities and cruelties to innocent unsuspecting victims than what we, as authors and artists, do not expect or hope to see—as if providing powerful, pleasurable poisons to their impotent, dormant, flagging guns of perversions. +Still, I feel like a mischievous evil professor in my deranged, unwashed artist-rebel persona, moaning with glee. Oh yes, I feel delighted, secured in my dreary desktop where slinking excess stories danced ready to destroy the morals of the purified, guarded, and restricted world of sex in Literature. But as I concoct, create and write my little monsters of madness, abuse, and corruption—conniving, cajoling, and consenting with debauchery and perversion—I stood more determined and challenged, sturdy and firm to prove my conviction that nothing is really wrong with the genre. +I think every reader has the sole privilege to accept or reject an erotic story—to decide what is wrong or right in whatever category he or she chooses—and not for society and its saintly guardians to assume the obligation of determining for us, as a whole, what should be read or viewed, as we exercised our rights as individuals. Still, it is unfortunate that not every one of us is ready to accept that obligation, either to use it discretely, or in our right frame of mind, to understand what is meant by individual responsibility. +Censorships imposed by the moral standards of the times tend to discourage the creative growth of writers and artists, true—more often forcing them to go underground yet revelling in it, rebellious and full of angst. Their works ignored, unnoticed by the masses except for a handful of adoring artist/writer friends; often disastrous to their accepted social status and literary reputation, its artistic worth or merit known only as showcase for their stubborn defiance of the established norms. Their scandalous actions—courting more the unruly dance of the dunces—tend to continue to the next starving generation, the ""harmful"" residue spilling over to the next creative group. +But still, in spite of all the moral constraints and social restrictions we, as artists, felt, we have an obligation to consider always the risks... +How many of us will have the courage of Anais Nin to pursue the purity of erotica in her own way even when trying to survive? And how many will have the convictions of a Henry Miller, or the explorations of a D. H. Lawrence, both determined to continue writing in spite of the rigid norms and economic conditions of their eras? +Indeed, it was a pity that Anne Rice—tampering with the thrills of horror, and enormously succeeding in it—abandoned erotica. Yet, the lucidity of her literary erotic intimations can still be discerned in her early works, in particular, The Feast of All Saints. Thus, I asked, when can we see erotic writings at par with a Melville or a Poe—unafraid, exemplary, pure and sincere—still influential for generations to come? +How many among us possess the obsession of the Marquis, for that matter? The proud and stubborn writer who, while incarcerated in the Bastille, without the benefit of electric light, laptop or a decent table, kept writing his ""100 Days of Sodom"" on tissue papers he pasted in one long continuous sheet, which he rolled and hid in the crevices of his rocky cell? Erotic writing at its rawest, crudest, and most malignant form—still made available to us throughout the centuries to admire the unstinting effort and treasure the imaginations. +Will it take another century, or perhaps, even more, before we can see Erotica as a legitimate form of literature, accepted as literary, and included as a genre of professional writing offered in colleges and creative writers' workshops? When will writers—professionals, published or unpublished—feel unafraid to delve in the genre, proud to see their real names and not their nom de plumes or pseudonyms screaming ""bestseller"" on a book jacket? +When can one read translations without censorship coming from foreign countries that have their own unique versions and brands of erotica? Can anyone imagine the wealth of pleasures and thrills reading Russian, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, German, French, or Arabic erotic literatures? When can honest aspiring writers like most of those who lingered in the fringes here in Literotica—enjoying enormous popularity yet wary of how to get rich and become a published bestseller—stop dishing out erotic writings that are easy and quick because the genre is viewed as such, rubbish and cheap? +When can our world look at sex in art and literature without disgust, shame, embarrassment, or hypocrisy? When can we start to understand and enjoy the intimate and personal joys and pleasures of reading what others considered, thought, and perceived for us as indecent, malicious, and immoral—without fear or doubt of our own—or the enormous harmful influences and unavoidable repercussions the stories/art will make? +When can a reader/writer/artist lift the veil of discomfort and embarrassment because the topic s/he chose to favour or indulge in is sex?" +707,The Phone Call,Carlo Fresco,How To,2001-06-02,2001-06-02,2022-01-04 08:40:16,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-phone-call-12,A dirty script that never fails to go wrong.,"['Feel Moistness', 'Fingers Press', 'Lips Pulling', 'Mmmmm Feel', 'Shoulder Fingers', 'Stop Feel', 'Trail Cum']",3.95,"Hey baby.

Let me run my tongue all over it. +Gripping your hips, I press my tongue against the small of your back. I begin to lick. +Hmmmmmm. +Up and down. Feel my moistness running all over you. Hmmmmm. Feel how wet its getting. Making you feel sooo sensual. Let me lick your asshole baby. Hmmmmm. Let me lick it. + _""Oh yeah baby do what you want, just don't stop. Mmmmm.""_ +As my fingers move around the front of your thighs my tongue begins to probe your asshole making you feel dirtier than you ever have before. I swirl it around and around causing you to arch back slightly over my shoulder. As my fingers move up your inner thighs your anus becomes blanketed in moistness. +Mmmmmm, baby let me tongue fuck your ass. Let me do it. Let me treat you like the whore that you are. + _""Oh yeah, fuck me baby, fuck me.""_ +You can feel my fingers running through your silky trim fur now. Grooming you. All the time my tongue moving in and out as my face becomes buried in your ass. My chin grinding against you. My thumb finding your hard clit, presses down hard. My two middles fingers beginning to rub your lips. Up and down. My thumb flicking your clit. As my fingers press against your pussy lips they begin pulling them around in circular motions. + _""Mmmmmmmm, damn baby I'm getting wet, don't stop, fuck don't stop.""_ +You can feel my fingers press your lips and pulling them apart exposing your glistening pinkness. As I slide in my index finger; rolling it against your lips and pulling down on your clit my tongue circumnavigates your ass. +Mmmm. I can feel your pussy walls hugging my finger as I curl it inside you. Your pussy is so tight. So fucking wet. How many fingers can I fuck you with baby? How many baby? One? Two? Three? Let me find out baby...I want to stretch your lips with my fingers. I need to make the space for this thick shaft. +With my left hand I hold your pussy lips apart while rubbing hard on your clit. Pinching it delicatly. Meanwhile the fingers of my right hand begin to probe you. Four fingers working for space. Twisting and turning pushing hard against your swollen lips. +Ohhhhhh, baby you don't know whether it feels good or bad. Mmmmm feel how slick your cunt is getting as I slide them in and out. Fighting against your creamy cum for space. Mmmmmm can you feel it baby? Can you feel it? Mmmmm finger that cunt. Imagine it. Make yourself feel good as I stroke my cock. As I stroke my shaft up and down. Imagine me tongue fucking your ass as I finger fuck your oh so sweet cunt. Mmmm your ass is so sweet pressing against my ass. Mmmmm baby feel it. Feel it baby. Mmmmm does it feel good? +""Oh yes baby, oh yes, I'm cumming"" +As your creamy cum rolls out over my hand I take that as a signal. Removing my fingers from your juich slit your cum rolls down your thigh. I create a trail with your cum leading around your hip over the small of your back and down over your throbbing anus. Rubbing your cum over your ass I follow the trail of cum all the way back around to your snatch with my tongue. Turning you to face me. +Mmmmmmm. Now I'm kneeling in-front of you, my hands rolling up and down your thighs. I'm staring at your pulsating lips, your throbbing clit, your inner pinkness, the dripping white cream and your finger rubbing yourself. +Mmmmmm, let me tongue fuck your cunt baby, let me tongue fuck you hard. I want to grind my chin against your clit and slide my wet tongue deep inside you. I want you to feel my moistness devouring your pussy walls. I want to eat your cunt until there is no cum left. Mmmmmm baby, you taste so good...Mmmmmmmm, I can smell your sex in your trim bush. Feel my breath running throw your silky fur. Feel my playful tongue slide in and out of you. +You bite your bottom lip and rub your sensitive nipples as I do. +Mmmmmmm...you look like such a dirty slut. Gripping your ass I pull you back and forth over my tongue. Flicking my tongue off your clit curling it inside you to meet your engorged pussy wall. Faster baby...Mmmmmm, I cant get enough of your juices. Cum on my face baby, cum on my face. Let me feel your juices roll down my chest. Mmmmmm. Are you there baby? +"" Fuck, fuck, mmmmmm, oh yes, oh yes"" +Are you cumming baby? +""Oh god yes baby, oh yes"" + _To be continued..._" +708,Pimp Your PCs,sarahhh,How To,2008-05-20,2008-05-20,2022-01-04 08:37:29,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/pimp-your-pcs,"Get them to tell you they love your ""work"".","['Gang Bang', 'Public Comments', 'Writing Advice']",4.41,"_Author's Note: This is NOT a ""How-to"" pertaining to Kegel exercises for strengthening PC muscles. No, it is a ""How-to"" regarding how to generate ""quality"" Public Comments (PCs) on your stories. James R. Scouries, Esq., that esteemed Literotica author who writes under the name ""scouries"" has indicated that I am ""Author of more 100+ comment stories than anyone else"" so I feel somewhat qualified to expound upon this subject. I am looking forward to his ALL-TIME 100+ COMMENTED ON STORIES list that he has promised will be soon forthcoming. Refer to ""The SCOURIES reader - for both fans and serious scholars"" in the Authors Hangout forum for details. I must also thank Mr. Scouries profusely for suggesting to me that I write this ""How-to"" story for the contest._ +* * * +Now, it didn't take me too long after I began to submit stories to figure out that Incest category stories are by far the most popular and generate many more views, votes, PCs, and private feedback, relatively speaking. If you take a look at the Favoritest Stories list, 21 of the top 25 stories are Incest category. No other category has more than one story in the top 25. It doesn't take a rocket scientist, people, to figure out that the number one rule to enhance your stories with pleasing PCs is this: +RULE 1: Write Incest category, at least sometimes. +Notice I said sometimes. You don't want to be labeled as the ""Queen of Incest"" or some such thing. Loving Wives category stories generate a substantial number of PCs also, but disproportionate to the number of views and votes compared to Incest category. Click, click. My next story will be in the Loving Wives category. +There are certain words that can be used in your story that may prompt incredibly entertaining PCs. Using the word ""Daddy"" effectively in the story can actually make some readers believe that they are your father. Here are some examples from comments on my stories: +Still Love Daddy's Dick? 03/28/08 by RichardS50 in USA Hey Baby girl!! Great story and as your father I can attest to the fact that you do LOVE DICK!! You always love to play with my dick and even your brother's! Remember when I caught you playing with his dick in church? Wow, what a laugh that was!! I also used to watch you while I was pretending to be sleeping, as you used to stare and play with my dick!! My dick was the first one you ever sucked and honey, I'll never forget that you swallowed all of my sperm, like a trooper!! Yes, darling Sarah, come home and love daddy's DICK!!!! +Imagination again!? 04/17/08 by RichardS50 Sarah! Either your imagination is running wild, or you've let one of those good-for-nothing college brats knock you up! If anyone if going to get you preggers it's going to be me!!! I would love sucking your breast milk anytime, after and only after I give you a baby, from the same sperm that made you! Ok? Love Daddy, PS.......hurry home for summer break, we've got some fucking to do!! +The first comment by RichardS50 was on ""I Love Dick"" and the second was on ""Breastfeeding My Brother."" He has put similar comments on dozens of my stories. Now, RichardS50 certainly seems like a fine fellow, but I can assure you he is not my father. +RULE 2: Use the word ""Daddy"" frequently in the story. +Most everybody likes a good chuckle, and if you give them one, maybe they will tell you about it in a PC Comment. Like this: +Vastly Entertaining 03/12/08 by Sequinns in US That was so funny! I was laughing so hard, but I really loved how you phrased everything! That was great. Very well-written, and comical. And I might add, so very true. +Laughed Like a Drain! 01/28/08 by ShinySee in NZ Funnier than a politician without his talking points! No really. I thought your 'how to' one of the funniest things I've read in ages. Thanx Shiny +These two comments appeared back-to-back near the end of the comments on ""How to F*** Your Daddy."" Both individuals are Literotica authors themselves. I don't know them, and I do not believe they had posted a comment on any of my stories before. It's nice to hear a few words of praise from fellow authors who aren't your ""buddies."" +Please note I selected comments from a ""How-to"" story rather than a ""Humor & Satire"" category story. The latter are supposed to be funny. I usually try to interject some humor in most of my stories. If the story makes me laugh when I'm writing it, then I'm guessing it will make someone else laugh when he/she is reading it. +Oh, and I love PCs that make me laugh. Here's one from the same story: +Oh, Sarahhh... such a sweet child 05/25/06 by Pro_Ball_Player Sarah, thank you for this insightful ""How To"" guide. Cleverly written with the right balance of eroticism and humor, but, still leaving us wondering if you wrote it from experience, or, from your wishful dreams? Maybe it's good that we don't know, but, I can't help but want to know. I know every girl just loves her Daddy, even if it's in that certain [pretend] special way. I guess we'll have to wait and see if this is re-printed in my favorite magazine in the ""Advice"" column. +Pro_Ball_Player is also a Literotica author and what made me laugh is that I know what his favorite magazine is. +RULE 3: Make the story funny. +I wrote a dogging story entitled ""A Bitch in Heat"" where the setting is Scotland. I have never been to Scotland, but the knowledge of all things Scottish reflected in the story impressed readers such that they made comments like this: +Sarahhh Keeps Getting Better 06/28/05 by pard75 in USA Since I am also of Scottish descent, this story had more than the usual effect (intense erection needing immediate attention). The Glasgow and Edinburgh details seemed all correct, and the dialect was well done. But, readers, please note how much better a writer our Sarah has become. This was her best. Now please excuse me while I attend to an urgent matter..... +Five thumbs up your arse!!!!! 06/24/05 by Anonymous You have quite the way with words my dear. Fascinating story although I suspect it is more your libidinous fantasy than fact. Your knowledge of Scotland does appear to be authentic. But you need private lessons (from me) regarding the sex. Yours, Carlton. +I have had a Scottish Dick before ;) 06/19/05 by menopawzmomma I have had a Scottish Dick before;) The dick I had was HUGE! It made me think all Scottish men were huge, until I read your story...they're just like the rest of the schmucks!!! ;) Great work!! +You can ride my tartan anytime! 06/17/05 by prop69 in USA As a man with Scot heritage, Frazier, I loved the story. I played rugby for 11 years, but dogging is a sport you should bring back to the states. Let me know and ""I'll be in Pittsburg afore yee!"" Bshell +Travelogues 06/17/05 by psychprof67 in USA Ahh Sarah, somehow I never pictured you as a travel writer. I see it all now, you writing travel tales and historical fiction, hordes of males, and more than a few females, reading them for the sex and inadvertently learning something as well. Welcome home and it is a provocative thought, picturing you in Scotland, my ""homeland"" too...Psychprof +sarah rocks the jocks 06/16/05 by Anonymous in Scotland whit a braw story. did ye get a supersized big mac, hen, and wull ye no come back again? +Now where did I get this knowledge of Scotland? Like I said, I've never been there, but I do have some experience with Scottish dicks. I think menopawzmomma must have ""seen"" prop69's dick, and that's where she got the HUGE notion. That prop69 is so sweet; he posts a comment on all my stories. +RULE 4: Impress your readers with research/knowledge. +Closely related to Rule 4 is Rule 5. Readers like to learn something new pertaining to sexual matters from a story, and frequently will comment on same, requesting more information and the like. Also, occasionally another reader who considers himself/herself to be an ""expert"" on the subject will chime in with some advice. +In my story ""Size Matters, but a Stiffy . . ."" I introduced a drug called sexadone that makes it unnecessary for males to be afflicted with MRP (Male Refractory Period). Thus males can attain a true multi-orgasmic response just as females do. Comments such as these resulted: +sarah does it again!! 09/02/05 by boese_ami in Cumshine State this one really tickled my fancy! where do i get a dose of this stuff?? I haven't got wood like this for a while (not since the cute little night clerk at the Ramada Inn in Stuart sucked me dry at least)....keep it up honey and i'll name you my heir...adopt you, whetever you want.....PLEASE let me be your daddy!! Marc in Florida. +Sexadone availability and contraindications ... 08/30/05 by Anonymous in USA Dear author and readers, information about Sexadone(TM) was never intended to be made public until after further testing, marketing prep, and FDA approval. Black market sales of this drug have recently exceed US $500.00 per 100 mg. dosage in the USA, and buyers need to be aware of the inherent dangers of using this drug without professional supervision. Sexadone is actually an injectible cocktail of several medications which include testosterone cyprionate, diazepam, Nubain (nalbufine HCL), and an injectible form of Levitra. It can be administered intravenously, intramuscularly, or directly into the penis to maximize the erectile effect. I'm currently developing a variation of this medication for female sexual enhancement. We're debating names for the female version: Sexadone XX, or Century 21 Spanish Fly, etc. This version of the medication has proven in initial trials to be extremely beneficial for females, and the only difference is that the testosterone dosage in the original Sexadone was reduced by 75% and supplemented by high dosages of estrogen and leutinizing hormone. So far, both these new medications have proven to be extremely promising for treatment of Erectile Dysfuction and to minimize Male Refractory Periods, as well as to enhance enjoyment and sexual performance in females. However, both these drugs are dangerous when over-used or used in higher than recommended dosages. Black market availability of these medications is problematic. Without physician oversight their use is ill advised, especially in males, where Sexadone abuse may lead to serious permanent injury as a result of prolonged erections and necrotic sequalae. One tragic example to consider is a physician who injected his own penis with Sexadone to prolong his ""stiffy."" This happened a couple years back. He accidentally overdosed himself. After half a day unsuccessfully trying to make his erection relax, he was in great pain and very embarrassed when he had to go to the emergency room for treatment. He had a penile infarction and tissue necrosis which ultimately required amputation of almost two-thirds of his organ. So, it is wise to beware of where you buy and how you use black market sexual enhancing drugs. Sincerely, Dr. B. R. Lang, Dallas, Texas +Incidentally, Dr. Rusty Lang is a real person, quite well-known, and not some phony baloney. Go ahead, Google it. Oh my, even famous people like to read porn and write crazy comments! This story generated more private feedback to me than any other I have written. I still get e-mails asking where to get the sexadone. +RULE 5: Make the story sexually informative. +It is my belief that a great majority of readers are male, although quite possibly there is around as many female authors as male authors. What do male readers like? Besides sex, I mean. Sports! I wrote three chapters in the ""I Love Dick"" series where I wore a Steelers ""I Love Dick"" T-shirt that led to various erotic adventures. Here are some sports-related comments from my ""I Love Dick Ch. 02"" story: +thanks babe 09/20/07 by Anonymous your i love dic story just helped me out like a mother fucker. and since i got to read your story ill tell you mine. i ve been with this girl for about 3 months and she cann't suck a dick to save her life. she started to read the story and said "" ya kyle this guy soony is a lot like you , i mean your 6'5 300 lbs, well endowed, you played football in high school and you did some minor mma threw the BBC, so your like the minors version of him, so does that make me the minor verson of her."" so i said ""well you cant make it to the minors cause for starters your a fucking packer fan, and when it comes to head what can i say"". so she she turned away from me and starred at the computer, i thought that she was pissed so i started to get ready for work, then she getts up and walks up to me with a smile. so i ask ""what are you smiling about"", she grabbes me by the neck starts to kiss me throws me down in the chair andsaids ""im ready to try out for the pro team"". all i can say is damn, illl spare you the details, but damn, damn damn damn. i oh you one thanks Stoobs +Nice story 09/23/07 by lakeeriemike My wife loves your writing and was really turned on by this gang bang story. She is too shy to do a gang bang in real life but wanted to recreate this story. So I got to fuck her mouth and cum down her throat. Then she road my cock and I filled up her pussy with another load. Finally, and after a little break, I did her ass and put the final load in her bowels. She was sore, dripping from every hole but loved it. Thanks for the story!!! Mike in Ohio +Stoobs is a Steelers fan I know from MySpace, and lakeeriemike from Cleveland used to be a Browns fan until I turned him. Now what is of prurient interest in their comments is that it sure looks like both of them got sucked and fucked due to the sports element in my story. +And of course there is my latest story until this one entitled ""How to Play PUCK"" that is much about hockey and pucking that generated many sports-related comments like these: +Sign me up! 05/11/08 by cncsteve in Detroit Enjoy it while you can, my dear Sarah. The Red Wings cometh! +fluck the flyers, again! 05/10/08 by ShiningAndShannon in usa can't wait for another fun, fuck-filled game of PUCK after we beat the Flyers again on Mother's Day. I think that Mom might have to play as well, heeheheheh. Can only hope I get invited to play some time! +Yummy....Lets go Flyers!! (this is tetonflyers) Loved it all and jerked off to it twice. However, I gotta go for my home-town boys, the Fly-guys. +I wanna Puck with you 05/10/08 biggins58 Sarah, great story. I love everything you write. The Steelers references in every story make it even better. Keep the great stories coming. I look forward to reading every one you submit. I wanted to go to the SIN Bin with you after reading this one. Thanks for a great story. Rick. +Rick (biggins58) is really smart because he won a Yinzling83 T-shirt for best prediction on a Steelers game. But then, so did I. Sorry Flyers fans, your team is off on vacation to join the Rangers and Senators at Neverland. That cncsteve dude must mean he won his red wings since he can't possibly be inferring that Detroit (if they make it) can beat Pittsburgh for Lord Stanley's cup. RULE 6: Refer to sports in the story. +Now what else gets readers all fired up? How about a little religion! +Here are comments from ""Pussy Saved My Brother's Soul"" in which a priest was a character: +Save My Soul Sister Sarah 11/15/07 by Anonymous in USA Oh please Sister Sarah, give me some of that old time religion. Hot as always. You took a story with two elements I don't usually care for, religion and gay, but turned it around with a nice hunk of incest. Hallelujah Brethern I have seen the holy land (thanks for that Sarah). Your Humble Student, Grampy +Bad habit 11/15/07 by Craiggie501 Sarah, you've out done yourself once again, religion, incest and homosexuality all in one story. Only someone like you can twist three taboos into one story. If you go to hell can I come too ?? +Anonymous actually has a user name. It's GrampyWriter and he is a Literotica author. I gave him some writing advice. Even old dogs can learn new tricks. Look at the sweet nothings he whispered to me in his Lit Biography. Now Craiggie, he is down under (in more ways than one), and gave me some information (especially about the beer) on Byron Bay (where he lives) for a story I did. +And then we have ""Hell Night"" where fallen angels come to earth once again to seduce human women as they did in the days of Genesis, chapter 6. Here are some comments on that one: +Laugh your bible (chapter and verse) 04/11/08 by KOLKORE in USA As another senior humorist on this site (from Boston I believe) has said it really pays to read good humor here. For one it's very educational, like you get to fill all kinds of gaps in your education, especially in all the classes you have missed (or slept through) in Sunday school. Second, it's very often also very funny too, so you get educated while you are laughing (or vice versa). Next I have some unanswered questions about Jonah and the Arc and how they managed all kinds of issues there. +Ben Gay? O, My!! NO!! 04/12/08 by Fox69 in USA Hmm..hadn't tried Ben Gay. OUCH! Just discovered...& I won't try it again! Still, you're talented, sweetie, and such clever usage of the Bible, for all those happily full of themselves hypocrites!! Love the name Allison, too, reminded me of my college sweetheart, delicious! +RULE 7: Introduce some aspect of religion into the story. +I do believe that many people are bored at work and read or view erotic material as a means to pass the time until they hear the request for an ambulance while listening to the 911 calls. For some reason people in certain occupations make the most enlightening and entertaining PCs, such as these made on my ""How to Play PUCK"" story: +You rock!!! 05/08/08 by ToddyBravo in Pittsburgh, PA Best author on this site. Period. I'm sorry to see it was rejected, but you win in the end. I read several others and, as usual, yours is the most titillating, humorous, and yes, EDUCATIONAL, by far. Since you're my favorite author, and in protest of your treatment, I will limit my reading to your submissions from here on in. Thank you, Sarahhh. You're a treasure. +Best...Game...Ever 05/09/08 by Anonymous in Rocky Mountain High, USA Now if you knew Daisy like I knew Daisy, you'd know the story doesn't end there. Not a chance she'd leave the sin bin without giving you a chance to practice what you had just learned. And with lungs tempered at a mile high, I can only imagine the volume at sea level. +Yes, Toddy Bravo and ""Anonymous"" are lawyers, and also good buddies. ""Anonymous"" (Art) made a comment on MySpace that he had a T1 line installed in his office strictly for porn. Oh, and he knows the infamous Daisy from my story in the biblical sense. Here's a comment from yet another lawyer he put on my ""How to F*** Your Daddy"" tutorial: +Damn girl, how am I supposed to stand up now ??? 05/25/06 by Penguinman in USA When I first read this storyline I knew it wasn't about playing poker:) then I read the story and I knew I couldn't stand up - I'm so glad I'm not your Daddy but I play one on TV - when will your imagination quit? You're definitely improving your writing skills - thank you for putting a smile on my face and a rise in my pants +I think lawyers like to fantasize that they are either defending my honor or suing me for sex. +RULE 8: Find some lawyers who like your stories. +Readers who ""get off"" on your story will perhaps be grateful and prone to reciprocation via a sweet PC, like this one: +Love u Sarah 01/29/08 by carrollj in Hong Kong I've followed this woman's writings for years now and I have a special place in my heart, and glans for her. This story is just another example of how a Pittsburgh girl can make an old English professor cum over and over again. Lots of love and Happy VD to my Conneaut Park lover. Lots of girls here in Hong Kong, but none as sweet as my Sarah. +Happy VD refers to Valentine's Day, incidentally, and the above comment appears on my story ""Feast of the Virgins."" Here are some comments from my story ""Hell Night"" that reflect a certain amount of seminal success: +another best seller,Sarah 04/13/08 by mccubs2 in Canada You just keep on making me cum with your super sexy stories..As usual you have something of everything here,from hetero to gay/lesbian (thats the best part for me!)You and your girl friends always have such great sex and its a big turn on for me..thanks for keeping me cumming,Sarah with your ever present sense of humour..Mike +ANOTHER HOT STORY SRAH !! 04/13/08 by tittysucker in Tennessee, U S S Sarah.....

Keep them (and me) cumming your gorgeous-ness. +Now tittysucker I believe did get rather aroused and probably did cum twice. But 13 times for Gobirds?

Information on high seas weaponry & more.,"['High Seas', 'Pirate', 'Pirate Captain', 'Pirate Ship', 'Port Side', 'Sailing Ship', 'Sailing Ships', 'Side Boat', 'Side Ship', 'Vessel']",,"So you want to write about adventure on the high seas? Warships or pirate ships adventurously prowling the oceans! Well then, you need to first know about ships. +Let us start with nomenclature. Sailors had to have a language that enabled them to describe the parts of their ships and the locations of the part with extreme precision. If an order was given, it had to be immediately clear what a sailor was to do, even if the sailor could not see the man who issued the order. +Abeam: Off to the side of the ship, at right angles to the direction the ship is pointed +Ahead: In front of the ship, in the direction the ship is pointed. +Apparent Wind: The true wind blows in some direction. However, the speed of a fast boat can make it seem that the apparent wind comes from a direction determined by the speed and direction of the wind and the speed and direction of the ship. Apparent wind is only a factor in a very fast sailing ship. +Astern: Behind the ship, in the opposite direction from which the ship is pointed +Aloft: Above the deck of the ship. +Batten Down: Secure hatches and loose objects both within the hull and on the deck. +Beam: The greatest width of a ship. +Bearing: The direction of an object expressed either as a true bearing as shown on a chart, or as a bearing relative to the heading of the boat. A navigator might use a chart bearing, a sailor would probably use a ship heading bearing. +Below: Beneath the deck. +Bilge: The interior of a hull below the floorboards. +Block: A wooden or metal case enclosing one or more pulleys and having a hook, eye, or strap by which it may be attached. See Tackle. +Bow: The forward part of a boat. +Bowsprit: A spar extending forward from the bow. +Broach: Sudden, unplanned, and uncontrolled turning of a vessel so that the hull is broadside to the seas or to the wind. +Bulkhead: A vertical partition separating compartments.

Floating refuse or debris. +Following Sea: An overtaking sea that comes from astern. +Forecastle: Also spelled Fo'c'sle (pronounced Folksul) fo'c's'le originally meant the upper deck of a sailing ship, forward of the foremast. The forward part of a sailing ship with the sailors' living quarters is also called forecastle. +Fouled : Any piece of equipment that is jammed or entangled, or dirtied. +Freeboard: The minimum vertical distance from the surface of the water to the gunwale. +Gunwale: The upper edge of a boat's sides. +Hatch: An opening in a boat's deck fitted with a watertight cover. +Head: A marine toilet; also the upper corner of a triangular sail. +Heading: The direction in which a vessel's bow points at any given time. +Heave To: To bring a vessel up in a position where it will maintain little or no headway, usually with the bow into the wind or nearly so. +Heel: To tip to one side. +Helm: The wheel or tiller controlling the rudder. +Hull: The main body of a monohull vessel.

It is the backbone of a vessel. +Knot: A measure of speed equal to one nautical mile (6076 feet) per hour. A fastening made by interweaving line to fasten a line to an object or to another line. +Larboard: The port side of a ship. The term Larboard was used for many years, ending in 1840 when the British Navy decided that it was too easy to confuse larboard and starboard in spoke order. Larboard was then replaced with port. (Port wine comes from Oporto in Portugal and has nothing to do with the port side of a ship.) +Leeward: Away from the direction that the wind is coming. It is he opposite of windward. +Line : Cordage used aboard a vessel. Never, ever call a line a rope! +Log: A record of courses or operation. Also, a device to measure speed. +Painter: A line attached to the bow of a boat for use in towing or making fast. +Pay Out: To ease out a line, or let it run in a controlled manner. +Pitch: The alternating rise and fall of the bow of a vessel proceeding through waves. The theoretical distance advanced by a propeller in one revolution. Tar and resin used for caulking between the planks of a wooden vessel. +Port: The left side of a boat looking forward. Also, a harbor. +Propellor: A rotating device, with two or more blades, that acts as a screw in propelling a vessel. Usually referred to as a screw.

When rope comes aboard a vessel and is cut to length and put to use, it becomes line. +Screw: A ship's propeller. +Ship: If a watergoing vessel is 100 feet or longer, it is a ship, else it is a boat. However, a submarine is a boat, regardless of length. +Squall: A sudden, violent wind often accompanied by rain. +Starboard: The right side of a boat when looking forward fro the deck. +Stern: The after part (back) of the boat. +Scupper: An opening in the side of a ship at deck level to allow water to run off. An opening for draining off water, as from a floor or the roof of a building. +Sea Anchor: Any device used to reduce a boat's drift before the wind +Tackle: A combination of blocks and line used to increase mechanical advantage. +Turnbuckle: A threaded, adjustable rigging fitting, used for stays, lifelines, and sometimes other rigging. +Tonne: The capacity of early sailing ships was expressed in tonnes. A tonne was a large wine barrel. As you might imagine, one of the principal cargoes of early sailing ships was wine. +True Wind: The actual direction from which the wind is blowing. (See Apparent Wind) +Windward: Toward the direction from which the wind is coming. It is the opposite of leeward. +Yaw: The swinging off course of a ship, caused by the action of the sea. +Pirates: Pirates were men who sailed the seas in ships, hoping to rob other ships and the passengers of the other ships. +Some pirates were simply criminals. In other cases, pirates who were usually called privateers, were actually financed and controlled by governments who wished to prey on the shipping of other nations. +A privateer was a kind of independent nautical mercenary, commissioned by a government to attack ships of an enemy nation in exchange for a piece of the spoils. Royal navies couldn't be everywhere, so countries in times of war turned to profit-hungry freelancers. +In general, pirates were led by a Captain. The Captain was elected by the pirates and could be replaced by vote of the pirates. In general, a Pirate Captain was a superior fighting man and leader. He had to lead the boarding of prey ships to retain the respect of his pirate crew. In general, a pirate Captain was a fighting man who led the pirate attacks on shipping. The second in command was the Quartermaster. In general, the Quartermaster commanded the men when they were not prepared for action. +A privateer was usually commanded by a regular Navy officer and the crew was a mixture of sailors and fighters who were often regular Navy men, picking up considerably more money than they could earn as just regular Navy crew. +The man who actually commanded a pirate ship was called a Sailing Master. It was not common for a pirate Captain to be the Sailing Master. As you can imagine, the pirate Captain was busy preparing his men to board a prey ship. He did not really have the time or opportunity to act as a Sailing Master. +In the case of privateers and sometimes in the case of pirates, the crew was governed by ship's articles. Ship's articles were a sort of contract between the crew and the Captain. Ship's articles defined the status of crew members and the share of any spoils to be divided. +Pirate Clothing: In general, pirates wore whatever they could find. Much of their clothing was looted from prey ships. Thus, a pirate tended to be dressed in a motley assortment of clothing. +Early sailing ships were sealed with pitch, a black, tarry substance. The crew of a ship, even a pirate ship had to work with pitch on a day by day basis. As you might imagine, a crew member and his clothing had quite a bit of pitch smeared on. While a pirate Captain might not have to work with pitch, he work with and around men who were smeared with the stuff. +If a pirate captain had special clothing, it was likely to be leather. Leather was worn for protection against cutlass and sword thrusts and slashes. If a pirate had long hair, he might wear a cloth tied about his head to keep the hair out of his eyes. +In general, pirates did not wear fancy hats. One of the exceptions was Blackbeard (Blackbeard is usually named as Edward Teach, although that was not his real name. Blackbeard was from respectable family in England and did not want the family name to be associated with piracy.) Blackbeard wore a hat because he was in the habit of wearing burning fuse dangling from the sweatband of his hat. The sight was intended to frighten his victims. + _[Please see Pirate Adventure Source Material Ch 02 for further information.]_ + +" +710,Playing by My Rules in a Chat Room,CornishBabe,How To,2008-02-25,2008-02-25,2022-01-04 08:37:32,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/playing-by-my-rules-in-a-chat-room,How to attract author's attention in chat.,"['Cyber', 'Online']",4.5,"Over the Christmas period I had about eight weeks of vacation from University and hadn't managed to secure myself a seasonal job. With my university being 800 miles from home it wasn't like I could get a job that I would be able to continue when I returned to school, and no one was looking for a temporary worker in the small town I call home. +So, with no cash to play with and no job to keep myself entertained I fell back on the internet, and began looking through various chat sites, online games and such like. But where ever I went I seemed to come across the same problem; people looking for a quick cyber fuck with no regards for anything else. +Yes, I may have been in my fair share of adult chat sites over that holiday period, but did manners and talking die with the birth of cyber-sex? It certainly seemed so. +I could sign into a chat room as 'CornishBabe' or any such name, I'm not all that inventive when it comes to screen names, and within a minute I would have received several unsolicited private messages asking whether I wanted to have sex with them, or perhaps the worst of all, the messages that go something like ""I want to bend you over the kitchen counter and fuck you till you pee."" +Excuse me? +Where did common decency disappear to? +So, in order to pass some time in this empty evening at University I have decided to write my own guide on how to perhaps attract my attention in a chat room. I can't guarantee that it will work for everyone, but it might make you the only decent person in the room, in my eyes. +The most basic thing anyone in a chat room who wants to talk to me can do is to fill in their profile. I like to know who I am talking to, especially when you are using a potentially unisex screen name. If you are in an adult chat room looking for fun then say so, and be sure to express your preferences. I hate going into situations blind. +And yes, I have taken the time to fill in my profile, I expect you to take the time to read it. +I also like it when people express whether they are willing to read unrequested private messages. Some people like messages from strangers, it means they don't have to go out and do the leg work but others don't appreciate this. So, if you put in your profile where you stand it might avoid some friction, and similarly before you message someone check to see whether it is even worth it. +If a name catches your eye and you've read their profile, seen that they seem like someone you want to talk to and that they are welcoming messages then send them a private message. Or even just leave them a message in the main chat. But, remember that you are a decent human being, not a sex starved succubus. +Say hello, ask how they are doing and take an interest in them. Get to know them explore fantasies, limits, willingness and general compatibility. This doesn't have to be a long and laborious process, just don't attack someone with a severely over the top ""Oh my god I want to fuck you so bad!"" +If the chat room is proving inadequate, maybe it is lagging chronically then why not propose a move to somewhere else? Most people use one form of instant messaging or another and many of them are compatible. Just because I use MSN and you use Yahoo doesn't mean we can't talk. +Oh, and if you suddenly have to leave do take just two seconds to say goodbye. A quick apology and a ""hope to see you again"" goes a long way in preventing a reputation as a complete loser, again, this is my opinion. +What else is there to say? Yes, I often came across something I always saw as a respect issue. Respect for my privacy and my right to say no. Just because I am in chat room it doesn't mean I want you to phone me, it doesn't mean I want to send you pictures and it doesn't mean I want cyber. Why is that so hard for people to understand? +So, if I say no I wont give you my phone number stop hassling me for it! If I say I wont put my camera on then stop pressing the button to request it. +What are my top tips? +Fill in your profile and read others'. +Say hello and engage in some polite small talk. +Be respectful. +Simple, eh?" +711,Playing with Ice,WFEATHER,How To,2006-04-14,2006-04-14,2022-01-04 08:37:35,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/playing-with-ice,A perspective on using ice in sexual play.,"['Cold', 'Cold Play', 'Ice', 'Ice Play']",4.07,"In the past, I have liked to take an ice cube and gently slide it back and forth and across a girlfriend's breast, watching the nipple harden, listening to her whimper and gasp as the cold caused her bud to tighten, and she would instinctively try to squirm away despite being properly secured to the bedposts. I might then drag the ice cube across her skin, pausing to let the cold ice melt into her navel, ultimately sliding the cube down her sex and along her inner thighs. Even on a particularly hot Arizona summer afternoon, she would react in very much the same way, attempting to squirm away as the cold beset her... +While I had previously read a few times about actually penetrating a woman with ice, I simply could not imagine myself actually doing that to anyone, especially not to anyone I truly cared for deeply. After all, I reasoned, ice upon the body can be very easily and quickly removed if necessary, whereas ice inside the body could be very difficult to retract in a hurry and could potentially create frostbite within her, and frostbite is certainly something I wanted to desperately avoid, especially in such a sensitive area of the body. +Admittedly, however, my view on ice play has changed greatly, based upon some recent experiences with a very special person who had professed a love of using ice (and anything cold) upon and especially inside her. Actually, to say that she loves having ice inside her is an extreme understatement. +In our regular, ""mundane"" sexual activity, she tends to be rather active and vocal. Her sirenic voice tugs at my heart as she whimpers and moans and cries out as sensation and pleasure overwhelm her senses. As a visually-oriented person, her near-constant writhing and twisting and bucking seizes my attention and allows me to connect with her on yet another level. When she is restrained, her propensity for perpetual movement is actually heightened, as she can then also struggle against the bonds, something she clearly enjoys. +Adding ice to our play takes our interactions to yet another level. Without question, she adores the sensation of cold within her, the interplay of cold and warm causing her body to writhe even more seductively, the chills created causing her to whimper and moan louder and more often. If she is bound when she has ice inside her, she pulls at her bonds with more intensity. And each successive ice cube I slip inside her causes her movements, her sounds, her passion to all rise exponentially; she says that ""it's like being fucked from the inside out... being fucked by something that doesn't feel like anything..."" +With ice melting slowly inside her, fucking her from the inside out, I will typically lay beside her, simply touching her, kissing her, holding her. If her limbs have full freedom of movement, she will typically wrap her arms and her legs around me, clutching me tightly, moving against me, bucking fast and hard, particularly if she has a lot of ice churning inside her. Especially if we roll so that she is upon me, she will drench me as the ice melts and first trickles from her body, then is expelled by the repeated spasms of her vagina in reaction to the cold sensations within her. And while one may think that she is having all the fun, I wholeheartedly enjoy it myself – I enjoy hearing her, watching her, feeling her moving against me, relishing the cool surges coat my crotch and my thighs, heightening her pleasure by touching her, kissing her, even helping her to move against my body. +However, there are of course ""dangers"" in ice play. As she effectively humped the air above my bed one night, the several ice cubes inside her being slowly stirred by my fingers, she suddenly announced, with concern: ""I feel cold on the outside."" Immediately, I stopped what I was doing and wrapped the bedspread over her, then lay beside her, outside the roll of the bedspread, and clutched her tightly to me to further warm her and comfort her. Still, she continued to move against me; still, she continued to cry out softly and lewdly. But that was effectively the end of our ice play for the night, as I was not about to add more ice into her body for fear of re-igniting the outer cold she had felt for that short period of time. +Another ""danger"" is related to the need for the melted ice to go somewhere eventually. Some of it is certainly expelled by her vaginal spasms, but since she is almost always horizontal when we play with ice, some of it flows further up into the torso, where it might remain for some time. Even well after our play has ended and we have dressed, a sudden unexpected flow of water may occasionally gush from her. +A third ""danger,"" also the result of the melted ice needing to go somewhere eventually, is the inherent wet spot upon the bed. Actually, it is not so much a ""wet spot"" as a ""wet pond,"" such is the footprint of her expelled excitement, especially after having used an entire tray's worth of ice cubes inside her. Further, the footprint typically saturates the bedspread, the sheets, and the mattress itself. Therefore, it is not necessarily a good idea to engage in ice play immediately before attempting to sleep in the same bed. +I believe it is safe to say that she has definitely turned me into an ice play enthusiast. Granted, my fun is not nearly as intense as hers, especially since I am not the one ""being fucked from the inside out,"" but simply sharing the moment with her and caring for her throughout and beyond the experience increases my desire for her and is very fulfilling for me, drawing us ever closer together." +712,A Plea for Accuracy and Truthfulness,History Nut,How To,2007-08-13,2007-08-13,2022-01-04 08:25:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-plea-for-accuracy-and-truthfulness,A 'How to' for writers of erotica.,"['Erotic Writing', 'Writing Advice']",4.47,"Our first duty as writers is to write the truth. That does not mean that we cannot, or should not write fiction or fantasy. It does, however, demand that we not tell our readers things which are physically, scientifically, and demonstrably false. +We can write about things that do not exist, and indeed cannot exist, in our known universe. We can 'invent' truths that can exist only in our stories. However, when we do so, we must also create a consistent and believable logic and a cause and effect rationale that enables a reader to accept the story world and its occupants and the things that happen in that story world as possible and even probable in the environment, and under the circumstances we show them through our writing. +However, writing science fiction, or science fantasy, or even stories of magic is not what I want to address in this essay. I want to discuss writing erotica. +Erotica is that genera of literature which tells us about sex and peoples involvement in sexual activity. It may be quite explicit and include 'gutter language,' but need not do so. It should, however, entrain a reader's imagination and cause him or her to vicariously experience the emotions and physical sensations experienced by the characters in the story. Some of the scenes in an erotic story, if pulled from the story and read out of the context of the story, might be pornographic. That is, such scenes portray the sexual activity in explicit terms purely to arouse the reader sexually and to cause a genital response -- tumescence, and the flow of fluid accompanied by a desire for orgasm +That is good. Those torrid sex scenes are to erotica what seasoning and spices are to food. They are what makes an otherwise bland, account of the interaction between two or more people come alive and make the reader wish that either he were a fly on the wall seeing forbidden aspects of someone else's life. Or wish that he was one of the participants. +However, and it is a huge however, too many such scenes, with no story line to put them into a believable context are as undesirable as what too much strong flavored seasoning is in a dish of food which if properly prepared is delicious and nutritious, and which leaves one wanting to eat more of the same at another meal. +A good story would still be a good, readable story even if all of the graphic sex scenes were expunged from it. It might leave the reader feeling that it would have been more enjoyable with a little hot sex in it, but it would still leave him feeling satisfied and that the time needed to read it was time well spent. Such a story has a beginning, a middle, and an end. But to go back to my first assertion; it must tell the truth. It must be believable. +Many an erotic story is made unbelievable because the writer has little or no knowledge of human sexual anatomy and physiology. +Over this past weekend, I read a well crafted story about a forty-seven year old photographer who had an affair with an eighteen year old girl. The story was sensitive, sensual, and entirely believable until the scene in which the protagonist penetrated the virgin girl's vagina the first time. +The head of my cock slipped [in] fairly easily into her slick vaginal opening, which had been opened somewhat by my fingers recently. As it pushed deeper into her, I could feel however that the channel narrowed and tightened around my cock shaft. I gently started rubbing her back again to assure her of my love, and I could feel her pussy starting to relax slightly to allow more access to my pulsating cock into her untouched inner love channel. I told her to take her time and to ride up and down in short thrusts. With a loud moan she started riding up and down, each time taking a little bit more of my seven inches long, and nearly two inches thick love sausage into her pulsing hot pussy. I could feel her juices coating the exposed part of the shaft in preparation for deeper entry, and I could hear her groaning and gasping as her pussy got more and more accustomed to this invasion of this foreign object into its private innards. +So far, except for some unnecessary wordiness, and the ""in"" which I set off in square brackets to show it should have been left out, the above paragraph reads well and is entirely believable. However, the second sentence of the next paragraph betrays the author's lack of knowledge about the anatomy of the female genitals. +My cock suddenly encountered an obstacle, which seemed to span the entire width of the excruciatingly hot passage into which it was gliding. I felt her pushing down on it until with a groan, yet the thrust wasn't enough to break through her still intact maidenhead. +A woman's maidenhead is her hymen. It is at the mouth of the vagina, not deep inside as described here. At the depth the author says the man's penis was in the girl's vagina, the object he would have encountered would have been the cervix of the girl's uterus. +If the man's penis is sufficiently long and thick, deep penetration can cause the cervix to slide up over the invading glans penis as it moves into the blind pouch at the extreme end of the vagina. If the penetration to this depth is particularly forceful, it can cause the female to experience a degree of discomfort or pain. +And, that brings me to another item which shows the ignorance of some writers. I have lost track of the number of men who in recounting a tale of sexual conquest have written that their penis penetrated into the woman's uterus (womb) and that he had emptied his semen directly into that organ. That is a physical impossibility. +The os-uteri (mouth of the uterus) is much too small for a man's penis to enter it during intercourse. When a gynecologist does a D and C (dilation and curettage) in which he inserts an instrument called a curette into the uterus to scrape its walls, he must first dilate the cervical os. He does this by forcing a series of graduated dilators through the os to stretch it. The first is about an eighth of an inch in diameter. Each increases in size by one millimeter (a little less than a sixteenth of an inch) until he can push one that is approximately a half inch in diameter into the uterus. There is no human penis that is either thin enough or ridged enough to force its way into a woman's womb. +As the woman's cervix slides up and across the glans penis to drop down over the coronal ridge to the penis shaft, it may feel to the man as though he has penetrated the uterus, but in reality, the end of the penis has merely entered the cul-de-sac that is the distal end of the vagina. +By the way, at the moment of orgasm, the man typically does thrust as far into the woman's vagina as possible and perform a series of short, rapid thrusts that culminate in his ejaculation. It is the stimulation of the woman's cervix sliding back and forth across the sloping head of his penis that produces those marvelous sensations which trigger the release of his semen. +One final point. Few men have a penis longer than six inches. The average erect penis is roughly five inches in length. Some a shorter, some longer. Rarely is a penis over seven inches in length, although a few do reach twelve inches. I know we men like to think of our sex organ as a mighty battering ram with which we give the woman of our dreams exquisitely memorable orgasms, but reality says otherwise. In a like manner, it is a gross exaggeration to say that one ejaculates gallons of semen. It may feel like that is what happens at the moment of orgasm, but the reality is that the average man puts out about a teaspoon full of semen with a good ejaculation. A few may spew out a tablespoon full. It is fine to say that one's orgasm felt as though it was pumping out gallons of sperm, but it is patently false to say that it did pump out a gallon or more of sticky white cum. Such exaggeration tells the reader that the writer is lying to him, or her and makes an otherwise believable story just another piece of hog wash. +Make your erotic stories as hot as you wish. Make sex scenes explicit and graphic enough to make your reader masturbate, but me truthful. Write stories which are factually accurate enough that even the most knowledgeable reader will still find your story believable." +713,Please Release Me...Let Me Flow,Alice_Roissy,How To,2003-01-18,2003-01-18,2022-01-04 08:37:37,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/please-release-me-let-me-flow,Men's Guide To Female Ejaculation.

Are you delivering the zenith of BIG 'O's? When the blushed chest and moaning and screaming haven't sufficed as proof, start exercising those arms, clip your nails and get your waders out...things are about to get real messy! +Men take ejaculation for granted. It's like a 'liquid-trophy' of man-hood, and the source of your future legacies and heirs. But cast your mind back to that very first time you managed to squeeze some 'Gentleman's Gel' from the end of your 'young chap', I guarantee you might have been writhing in ecstasy, but you were also confused and maybe even a little ashamed. My boyfriend will admit to believing he'd somehow 'broken it' when he finally popped his cork aged 13yrs. With females the climax has always been much harder to tell. After all, the female orgasm never had such a visible finale, or so you've been led to believe. +A skill possessed by most females but in reality admitted and permitted by few, female ejaculation is one of those few remaining taboos and 'un-tapped' delights of the 21st century. You all know that your girl can’t help but spill the beans on your 'sexploits' to her close circle of friends. She'll be all too eager to divulge your size, expertise and finishing techniques, but never be fooled into thinking she's dishing the dirt on herself. It's strange but there are still some subjects considered too taboo to share over a bottle of wine, and depositing her 'load' seems to be up there with rimming and fisting. In truth you are more likely to hear a guy discuss the pleasures of female ejaculation than you ever would a woman +History dating back as far back as the 2nd Century has detailed the ability of females to ejaculate during sex. Yet often when seeking medical counsel from doctors, gynaecologists, and psychiatrists, these anxious ladies were invariably told they were incontinent and needed either surgery or psychotherapy. The belief and humiliation of it being linked to incontinence stripped any sexual satisfaction, often leaving the female ashamed. After all what girl wants to earn herself the reputation of an un-intentional 'bed wetter'? Even today's UK Censors have been known to emit footage of females ejaculating from porn films, wrongly believing it to be urine and therefore fetish orientated. In fact what these ladies are actually achieving is the absolute pinnacle of female sexual pleasure. An ejaculatory orgasm, or 'squirting' as now commonly referred, which renders them well and truly spent! +Most of us ladies who have experienced an ejaculation initially believed we've suffered from a leaky bladder. Instead of enjoying the sensation we were mortified to believe we had 'golden-showered' our partner and indeed, in many cases so did you men. Lots of females, under thorough interrogation or clever coaxing will admit to having had an experience where they believed they'd 'leaked' during sex. The feeling of ejaculating is not dissimilar to peeing, a shower of warm wet liquid and a feeling of intense release. +Often it's the guy's reaction to ejaculation that will determine any future releases. If he's had previous experience, or at least understands what has actually just happened, things will be significantly less embarrassing for both parties. In truth, he has skilfully hit the lucky girls G-spot and her eternal font of pleasure. If however he jumps to his feet shouting 'Fucking- Hell! You've pissed yourself', the chances are your girl will dry up like the Serengeti...as will your sex life. +It has taken almost 1,800 years for the subject, often considered an urban myth, to finally be an acceptable and willing bed partner. When it first started happening to me I was so paranoid I found myself looking at adult nappies in Boots Chemist surgical dressings department. You may snigger but I assure you, to a girl only in her twenties if you believe you've started to pee yourself during sex, it's like the end of the world. No amount of Bulgari perfume is going hide the stench of piss sodden sheets. +For our part, the fairer sex has enjoyed and indulged the sexual revolution. We found our clitoris, and in increasing numbers so have men. We've stocked up on toys, some of us have even engaged in threesomes, swinging and discovered the delights of Fetishes. In a relatively short time women have been sexually liberated, and for the first time in history we can finally take the lead in the bedroom and dungeon. In 1981 when Newsweek published its editorial piece 'Just How the Sexes Differ', it claimed the major difference was 'that men ejaculate, but women do not'. Oh! How naive they were. The actual difference between men and woman is that we can 'shoot' more, and further than you. Soon teenage girls everywhere could be enjoying their own version of the 'Soggy Biscuit’ game. +Once released, the actual ejaculation itself can be a mind-blowing experience for both partners. Not only does the female get 'THE' most intense orgasm, but also the lucky partner gets some serious dousing of love-juice. The amount of fluid 'squirted' can vary considerably in volume. Most Doctors have settled between the 5ml and 100ml volume, but personal experience and others can testify to soaking a bath towel over the course of an evening. The amount varies as much as force of expulsion. My partner in particular will often receive a warm soaking of his balls. But on occasion, particularly during harder 'doggy style' penetration I've managed to drench not only him, but also the soles of my feet and beyond. Something he's definitely partial to. +In reality many men are fascinated with this so-called 'phenomenon' adding to the growing 'ejaculating super-female' urban myth. Legend has it that when Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee started dating a girl named 'Bullwinkle' it wasn't her looks he was interested in, but her ability to 'spray her cum across the room'. That may also lead some credence to Pamela Andersons' claim that guys' can't get enough of her 'trick pelvis'. +Equalling the tally for all those 'pearl necklaces' has its satisfaction, especially ejaculating during oral and I'm becoming very adept at delivering my own version, a 'sparkling-choker'. But a price does have to be paid for all this pleasure. First of all it can present a new slant on the question of 'who sleeps on the wet patch?' Especially when we are not talking about just a lovin' spoonful, but up to half a pint and bed linen that look like they should be displayed in the Tate Modern. Forget Tracy Emmin's 'un-made bed'. Check out my sheets, I could give Jackson Pollock a run for his money! +There are a few ground rules to undertaking your quest. Do not set out believing there really is such a thing as the 'ejaculating super-female', even if I personally would wear the t-shirt with pride. Most women can ejaculate but many don't. In the same way that all women can orgasm even though some don't, be it through physical or mental blockage, or just plain in-experience. When you guys first engaged in a 'five knuckle shuffle' you got a result. It may have taken a while before you managed to produce your 'baby gravy', but you still got hard and it captured your affections. The climax has always been much more hidden and complex in females, and as such, a source of infinite frustration in men. Giving rise to that ever popular question 'How was it for you?' You seem to need to ask us! +There are indeed many complexes in achieving female ejaculation but it's best to start with compatible partners. Both parties have to be sexually adventurous as some women claim that their partners will literally 'wilt when showered'. Other females, especially if you've just 'popped their cherry'ade', will still dive for the bathroom absolutely mortified and convinced they have committed an indiscretion. If the idea of water-sports has intrigued you in part but you're not too keen on urine, female ejaculation could be your 'holy grail'. +Now, whoever said that condoms were passion killers has never tried a mattress protector, or jumping up halfway through a really good session to find a towel. Forget that decaying crusty sock you keep under the bed, which is covered in dead cultivations of 'man-milk'. If your girlfriend can squirt you will seriously need to upgrade. At one stage I even started obsessing about staining the mattress. This doesn't happen but it does raise yet another issue of 'protection'. +Like in Yoga where one is taught to almost reverse ones breathing pattern, in sex the female needs to control another inbuilt reflex. The building of the 'ejaculation' does feel very much like a desire to pee and as soon as the urethra starts to tingle, second nature kicks in. When squeezed The Pubococcygeus Muscle (try get your tongue around that!), prevents the bladder leaking. It is crucial for your girlfriend to oppose this contraction and actually bear down against it. This is not an easy concept to get your head around because if you bear against the muscle that prevents you peeing, surely that means you do. Not in this instance it seems. Contraction of the muscle in this instance actually stops an orgasm from building; pretty much the same way as squeezing the base of the penis and thinking momentarily of Anne Widdecombe does in men. It does not prevent further ejaculation, just postpones it. This is the first barrier you need to deal with. Don't be under any illusions that your girlfriend will fill your mouth with milk & honey on command. If only life were that simple. Remember the hunt for the clitoris? Well if that equalled gaining an 'A' level qualification, getting your girlfriend to 'squirt' for the very first time is like obtaining a PhD. +The ejaculation itself does come through the urethra, the same tube used for urination. It is located just outside the vaginal opening. If you spread your ladies inner labia and trace your finger from just inside her pussy, up towards the clitoris, after about half an inch you can find a tiny hole. Almost a needle in a haystack, especially if your lady is unshaven. This is where the ejaculation fluid exits, but not where it originates. That's the job of the 'Skene Gland'. The equivalent to a male prostate, which produces seminal fluid in males and it's hidden between the G-spot and the clitoris. Although some insignificant traces of urine are evident, the composition is not that dissimilar to the fluid produced by the male prostate to keep all those hungry little 'baby-makers' alive during male ejaculation. +The fluid can appear like either watered down milk or can be clear in composition. It in no way offers any contraception as the fluid is expelled outside the vagina. Therefore the only conceivable purpose of female ejaculation is for pleasure. And the pleasure is intense, in many cases far surpassing any previous best. Ejaculation can take place during both a clitoral and a vaginal orgasm, thus providing a magical 'third' orgasm. If you are lost on the difference between a clitoral and a vaginal orgasm, you might want to ask your girlfriend; although if you really don't know the difference, you probably wont have a girlfriend to ask. +An ejaculation results from manipulation inside the vagina, as per a vaginal orgasm, but with an added jackpot. Giving the female an amazing double whammy orgasm. Sometimes after ejaculation the female can virtually pass out from the after-glow of forceful feelings. But don't worry, unlike men, there's usually more to follow. Give her a few minutes and she'll be filling up like the office water cooler. +Obviously a starting point to your crusade is required. It usually helps to wait until your lucky lady is already aroused before declaring your honourable intentions. Place a towel on the bed to help absorb your 'baptism'. Each orgasm will deliver a different volume of liquid in all manner of directions and velocity. This can range in spectacle from a trickling 5ml to a turbulent 200ml (I no longer worry about my creative juices drying up, as I reckon with my other talents I could easily always get some freelance work with the fire service). +I would just also like to rectify a point here about another 'urban myth' that we girls have been swallowing for years. When was it actually decided that the male load averaged at 10cc? Who were these 'specimens'? My boyfriend often cums so much I once actually accused him of being a freak. Bad etiquette I know, but sometimes I resemble the star attraction at a 'Bukakke' club. I have literally eaten his humble pie though; first time I ejaculated over him he was perfecting his oral skills. I came so much he was thoroughly drenched. His hair, face and chest were totally dripping. The sheet showed perfectly where his head and torso had taken the brunt, leaving an outlined dry patch. He loved his 'baptism' so much I counted 9 more ejaculations before rolling over, passing out and leaving him with the mess. Now there's a novel occurrence. On other more adventurous occasions we have actually measured distances, managing up to 5ft of coverage; and I used to think the Bangkok ping-pong ball trick was impressive. +If you haven't yet introduced toys to your relationship, fingers will be more than adequate for the job. Both can achieve the desired result but for first timers you will need to feel your way around, so you should probably leave the toys until later. Scrub your hands well. Trim and if necessary file your fingernails, you don't want to cut the poor girl (Welders, Guitarists and Builders take note: your fingers are not often noted as 'hands that do dishes'. But this is one area you can truly exploit those textured fingertips). It can also help to exercise your arms and fingers a little; you do not want to find yourself huffing 'are you nearly there yet?' Time should not be of essence during sex unless your girlfriends expecting a birthday telegram from the Queen. +Start off slowly with lots of foreplay, for both parties. Manoeuvre her onto her back with you positioned between her thighs. Using your fingers and tongue stimulate her clitoris. Wet your fingers and tweak her nipples to really get her going, whilst executing the best cunnilingus skills you can muster. When you sense her starting to get aroused, insert two fingers inside her with your palm facing upwards. Enter your fingers up to the second knuckle and bend upwards to create an L shape. Now gently probe around until you find a rough surface approx 2 inches in length. This is the G-spot and is located directly behind the clitoris but inside her pussy. +When you literally 'hit the spot', start to stroke this area and it should start too en-large. Ask her to let you know if she can feel any increase in intensity. If she can't maybe you have the wrong area so keep looking. Don't go mad, but you may be surprised at your partner's thresholds. Try out differing degrees of pressure as you are probing, and if necessary use some lube. Massaging the clitoris with your thumb whilst doing this also increases stimulation. If she is having trouble relaxing or is becoming self-conscious be prepared to let her see that it's also working for you. It helps to see that your fella is enjoying himself, and watching my guy 'box with his one eye'd champ' is an absolute delight. +Your stroking may need some variety. You can work the two fingers together simultaneously or they can work in opposition like a finger walking exercise. Work around the whole area. An effective method is to combine the two previous suggestions followed by sliding your fingers in about an inch, before pulling out and sliding them back in. Start off slowly and build in speed. Don't go too hard; you are not trying to fist her. Try stimulating her clitoris at the same time; trust me this is not a time for idle hands. Keep measuring her responses. Heavy breathing, deep moaning and contractions around your fingers are a good indication that something is working. When you feel her start to bear down, begin pumping your fingers faster. At some point hopefully your girlfriend will experience a desire to pee. This is what you are both aiming for. If she can bear down and positively encourage this, and your handy-work has been sufficient, things should get very wet. +This isn't necessarily the best position to achieve ejaculation. The inside of a women's vagina is shaped, sized and angled individually, a bit like the shape of the male member. Penetration from behind may definitely be the key. Do remember however that in this position you need to work palm down. It will be easier for you to work on her G-spot and massage her clit at the same time. Try different variations with hands, tongues and fingers. Remember, if you do become dis-heartened, this time there are prizes for her 'Cumming' first. If fingers are not working, try using your thumb. Although initially it won't reach the G-spot, if you stimulate her clitoris it will swell during arousal. Take two fingers and lay them either side of her clitoris, then position your thumb inside her forming a three-fingered claw. This allows for the curve between the forefinger and middle finger to apply pressure and friction to the clit. If you start to move your thumb and fingers in a pumping motion you will massage both clit and G-spot at the same time. When she starts to bear down increase your speed. Over time it is possible to control and even prevent ejaculation whilst still enjoying the orgasm, but that's just plain criminal! 'Please release me, let me flow' should be every female's motto. If your girlfriend does manage to ejaculate it will, rest assured, catch you both by surprise. This is a significant moment for both of you, and if it's either party's first time, you will remember that moment of impact forever. The truly amazing bonus that evolution has granted us finally superior to males is that we can do it again and again. Be aware that in the same way we can have multiple orgasms, we can also have multiple ejaculations. Intensity and amount of fluid may vary with each individual orgasm until our supplies are depleted, but the sensations just get better. Being entered from behind whilst 'squirting' provides the ultimate finishing touch. The smile of the man who is lucky enough to have his balls drenched by his ladies cum is definitely a Kodak moment. +Your girlfriend may not ejaculate every time she orgasms, and indeed a case is even documented where a lady approached her gynaecologist believing she was ill because it had stopped happening. Pressure on the female to deliver can be intense, and can prevent ejaculation in the same way it happens to men. Relaxation, an open mind and willingness are the three key factors. If these elements all click the final result will most likely be the most pleasurable and intense orgasm she has ever experienced. Now just imagine being the guy able to deliver that! +After ejaculating your girlfriend will obviously, and hopefully, be a bit delirious for a few moments. It passes way too quickly so let her enjoy it before commencing with your wicked-way. She probably will want you to continue in a few seconds, or she may wish to have a breather. But I'm sure you will also wish to take a couple of seconds to comprehend the aftermath. As for achieving other ejaculations beyond this point, it's a bit like riding a bike (hopefully without the grazed knees). +Once perfected, don't be surprised when she now starts to hassle you for oral. Yep! Equal rights! Which leads us nicely on to the etiquette of swallowing and taste. Like male ejaculate, the taste of lady-juice can vary from bitter to sweet according to diet, water consumption and a host of other environmental and biological factors. Male porn stars frequently abstain from alcohol or spicy food for a couple of days before a shoot to combat what is known as the 'gag factor'. It's an assault on the ladies taste buds and will invariably produce a 'Spunk-gurning' reaction. But if you drink a pint of water and avoid spicy food, it's not quite the delight of Evian, but it's definitely more palatable. Well the same goes for us girls. On occasion it can taste sweet, on occasion bitter and at certain times of the month metallic...it is generally advised to avoid these times as you could end up earning your 'red wings'. Nuff said! +Mopping up afterwards can be awkward and embarrassing. If ever there was a time for you to earn big brownie points and a breakfast in bed, this is it. Try hard not to make it an issue even if she has just soaked your best satin 'bachelor' sheets and woken your housemates. Be impressed! Sleep on the wet patch without moaning, it's grim I know, but us girls have been doing it for years. In the morning you'll notice a slight odourless milky stain, betraying your prior enjoyment. If she's well and truly tanked-up, and I don't mean with alcohol, you'll shortly join the hall of shame as you trot down your local high street to purchase a mattress protector. You might as well stick a yellow hankie in your back pocket; the sales assistant's look will say it all. +There is a surprise finale to all this activity. Your girlfriend's need to finally pee. If confirmation that she did not pee was needed, Mother Nature doesn't fail. It is quite possible to drain a very full bladder after having also ejaculated up to 250ml and it always raises a wry smile on my face. +Put plain and simply what you have right now in the palm of your hand is the knowledge to uncover the absolute pinnacle of orgasms. The 'third place' if you like. If you can successfully entice your girlfriend to ejaculate, all prior orgasms become a fond memory. What was considered the 'Big O' before, has just evolved into the Big 'OOOOOooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!'

So far, the parts that I have come up with are: +1)Intimacy 2)Oral Sex 3)Penetration 4)After-Effects +These parts will then also be divided into sub-parts. I won't begin with one and then continue to four, though. I think that I want people to know a little bit about what they would be getting from this piece. Of course, guys will want to read it because they can coerce their girlfriends to do the things that they especially are fond of, under the guise of helping her be a better lover, without giving her blatant instructions. Women will want to read it so that they have an advantage over their friends when it comes to getting guys, because no matter how you shake the stick, guys want a woman that knows what she's doing without having to deal with her promiscuous past and this piece will make it easier for her to say that she didn't learn from experience but through research. +The best part about this piece is that women will be able to cause a man pain that is pleasurable, like when she ""deepthroats"" or penetrates her mouth with his penis until her face is up next to his groin and his member is past her mouth into her throat. Pain that is pleasurable like when she continues ""sexing"" him, even after he has already ejaculated, and his penis is throbbing, until it stops pulsating completely and he is completely flaccid. +This writing will help a man get what he wants because he knows what he wants although he cannot always say it. +As this is a rough draft, I can promise that everything might not be in order, but there may not be a final draft to this piece either, because I am very lazy when it comes to talking about sex, like any guy. Why teach a woman how to be great at sex when if she is, then there would be no reason to replace her or lose her? I will try to put the important stuff in bold, but try as I might try, there may be things that I forget to bold because, I am lazy like I said. What's good: make it passionate with kissing, dry-humping, cupping my head with your arms while I am behind you, calling me dominate things like ""daddy"" and my own name (which works just as effectively), stroking my thing while I am inside you, sticking your tongue out at me and flicking it or begging for my cum over and over, sucking the inside of my hole until and up to the rim of my cock head as hard as you can when I have orgasmed, making a hole with your fingers in front of your vagina or butt hole while getting penetrated by his penis, sucking so hard when your mouth comes off of it there's a popping sound, turning while pulling, etc. +1\. Intimacy is the foreplay. Foreplay for a man starts the moment that he tries to sleep with her. It's like a tango where he pushes and she pulls but he still doesn't want too much of a challenge that he cannot defeat or conquer. +He likes to French kiss for hours, so make sure that your teeth are clean and your breath smells good, unless you're some harlot that he has no romantic interest in. In that case, this entire thing does not apply to you. Intimacy in a prostitute's case is a golden shower, cumshot, and other disrespectful stuff that I will not mention. +He likes to dry hump, for you to sit on his lap and gyrate your hips, to touch and to kiss you all over your body in the most private to the most public parts. Your body feels great and if he is a guy then he will be pleased to have your body as close to his as possible. +2\. Performing oral sex on a guy is good but I think that most guys like to have vaginal sex, but we will get to how to make that part better too. It should always be lubricated. Oil feels better than anything else when it comes to penetrating any hole but her mouth. The mouth is best with nursery jelly because oral sex should be a combination of a hand-job and throat-job. He likes when you make a fist around his penis that is connected to your mouth, and when doing so you turn and pull. There are variations to this, like placing your other hand around the base of his penis while you do that or by using both hands to turn and pull his penis in your mouth. +Use three fingers, your thumb, forefinger and middle finger to hold his nut sack and penis separate. After, use your other hand to twist and pull the head of his penis while your use your mouth on his nut sack. Rub the penis all over your face and the inside of your mouth because it feels amazing. +Lick his butt hole and everything else on the underside of his body, I guess, even finger his ass, pulling towards your face. It feels weird for a while, which may be why some guys don't really like it. I am one of them. Hold his penis at the base and use your hands to deepthroat his penis and stroke back to the head. Don't be confused; just make sure that you use your hands to stroke his penis when you give oral sex. By keeping his penis warm, he is most likely to orgasm. It opens the blood vessels to allow for a harder erection. The warmer the better and your hands are warmer than your throat is. +3\. When he is penetrating you, massage his balls. He will love that. When he is having sex with you focus on doing that, not on how small it is and how much you wish he was someone else. You can do that later. Stroke his penis while he penetrates you, and if you can use both hands to do pleasure his balls and his penis. +He knows that you might be a whore, or you might not. Make him feel like you are his whore. Say things like ""Daddy, I'm your little whore"". He likes hearing these things just as much as you like shoes. He likes hearing his name and he likes possessing you. You may not want to hear that but it's true, so make him feel good. +4\. When he is done, continue stroking because the pleasure has not ended. Whether he is inside of your mouth, pussy or ass, he likes when you continue stroking. If he tries to push you away, it is because he does not want to seem vulnerable because his skin is so very sensitive. +He might try to move your hands while you do this, not because it doesn't feel good, but because he will orgasm too fast and he doesn't want you to think he is a minute man in the bedroom. I get drunk off of whiskey a great deal and my girls do not, so they tend to do these things very often, and try as I might to ramrod her, when she is ready for me to orgasm, she will do this, and I am powerless to it. +So, before you rate this piece, please try it on your partner. Give me feedback, too. It is good stuff and if he doesn't like it, then he must be powerless to your methods and you should follow the writing verbatim. There may be some things that I didn't cover, like wrapping your legs around his waist during the missionary position or positions in general that you can find in almost any book. There are so many variations to sexual intercourse but these little tricks will definitely make for magnificent sexual experience." +715,Pleasure: A Delineation,BearCella,How To,2017-06-20,2017-06-20,2022-01-04 08:37:38,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/pleasure-a-delineation,What pleasure really feels like.,"['Erotic', 'Female', 'Ff', 'Fm', 'Male', 'Mf', 'Pleasure']",4.62,"It hits you sharp. Like a punch in the stomach. All of the sudden you're entire world is focused on this arousal. It lodges itself deep into your gut. Your fully aware of that place now. Its screaming out. Loud. It is begging for attention. It wants. +Sometimes you can hide this sudden onslaught of sexual energy. Especially us, women. Our nipples might suddenly become hard little nuggets; but you'd never know it while they are hidden inside of our lacy bras. Our labia might be swelling up with each passing moment, but again, that evidence is well hidden between our legs. Occasionally blood might start pooling in our cheeks, but a woman can blush for many different reasons. Including embarrassment. +Some might be able to tell. The brightness in her eyes. The tale-tell hint of amusement on her face. Or the small, almost always, unnoticed hitch in a single nostril. Most people miss these signs, and so a woman is almost always able to hide her arousal from those, that she doesn't want to inform. +Some of these moments are like fireflies; a small burst of energy, that flickers in. And then out. Silenced by refocusing our attentions on the things that need dealing with. The boss. The phone. A friend's lament about her husband, boyfriend, lover. Brushed aside in a single moment. It is as easy as breathing. +Other times, the action that has caused the arousal, continues; making the ability to dismiss, much harder. The image on a movie screen. The scent of a man who is nearby. The way a lover is looking at you. A touch that is consistently caressing that part of your body, that when stimulated, sends signals to your womb. Waking it up. Feeding the arousal. +Those moments take more focus. They take more energy. But even those causes can be tamed. +For the most part. +There are times when it cannot. When the ability to redirect loses out, to the arousal's need to be fed. It is like a hail storm. It is simply, there. There is no telling it to stop. No convincing it to slow down. No reasoning with it to just go away. It is hungry. And like a crying infant, it wants what it wants, and it wants it, instantly. +And so you feed it. +You do whatever it takes to make it stop screaming inside of your head. To make it shut the hell up. To satisfy it. +It's a fight. A battle to the death; hopefully it's death and not your's. You do those things, that you know in the past, have worked to slay it. You knead it. Hard. Touch it here. There. Quickly. Relentlessly. Pet it in attempts to sooth it. Drawing it out of you like a poison. Forcing it to explode like fireworks, into a thousand pieces; that fade into the night's sky. +Sometimes this is all that it needs. It is happy. It willingly dissipates into the background once again, after being given some of your time and attentions. Like that toddler, that just wanted to know that you were still there, that you still cared about it; and like a flash, toddles back off to wherever it came from. +Other times it is like the old child's toy, a Slinky. Just like the Slinky, crawling down the stairs; it never stops. It pulls on your body, your mind and your soul, drawing out what it wants from you. Then crashing down on itself. Pausing. Coiling back up, gaining momentum, and pushing you back over another cliff. Ever onward. To no particular destination. Only this is more upwards, than downwards. +So you fight it. It fights back. The war is not just one battle, but many skirmishes that you either win. Or loose. Each one a Slinky that pulls on you, pushes you, and forces that explosion of sensation throughout your body. You feed it. Give it the energy it demands. Hoping that this last one will cause you to reach your destination. +You never reach it. It's just an endless set of stairs, reaching upwards, into infinity. Until one of two things happen. You pass out. Or it gets bored. +Either way your body is worn out. It has been pulled, pushed, and torn apart. It is neither satisfied, nor begging. Your mind is dull, even if your arousal is not. You pick up the pieces of your mind and with your soul fully intact, and you walk away. +Orgasms however are a different breed of beast, all together. They are sly. They take their time. They know what they want, and they don't ever, ever, ever stop; until they are fully satisfied. +An orgasm is sneaky. It creeps up on you, when you're not always focused. Catching you off guard. Coming in like a fog that envelopes everything around you; sucking on you, and applying pressure all around you, at the same time. Sometimes you can call to it, beckon it to come to you; but It is fickle. +It does not like harsh. It does not like pushing. It does not like rigid. It's as soft as angels wings. It is sweet like the first taste, of a rich chocolate, on the tip of your tongue. +Its like taking a swim in the ocean. It gently beckons you with its teasing ripples. Cooling off your skin, from your earlier excursions with arousal. It encourages you to rest. Filling your head with promises of relaxing amusements. You walk deeper and deeper into its seductive embrace. Sure of yourself. Confident in your mind and soul that you control this, you allow your body to stretch and move with the upsurge. Until you've decided that you've had enough, and start to swim back to the shore. Ah, but the orgasm as other plans. It has other needs. It has deeper desires. +It is flexible, and calculating, seeking out that which will bend you, and shape you. It is yielding to the defenses that you put up. It cleverly finds the crack, and seeps its tentacles in. It is steadfast in its endeavors, not ever abandoning its goal, winning. Ultimately, it tricks you into the deep depths of arousal, until the only way out is to surrender. For, it is in your surrender, that's how it ultimately wins. +You can fight against the tides that are tugging at you. Swim hard and fast; pulling away, to keep from drowning. Each lap of the water against your skin, is a new lure to break down those shields. Each splash of the crest against your mind, breaks down your guard. Each yank by the undertow, draws you further and further out to the place, where no number of strokes of your feet, or paddles of your arms will allow you back to shore. The only way to reach the safety of land now, is to give over. To let go and allow it to carry you back. +Submitting to orgasms take everything you've got. It won't settle for partial. It don't concede to fractional. Its all, or its nothing. Winner takes All, mentality. +Nor does It grant a single remittance. It take as many times as It wants. Like the tide, It pulls you back under the current, again and again. Crushing you with its energy. Surrounding you with its warmth. Blinding you with its light. Besieging you, until the last of your ability to focus is shattered. Your mind blank. Drawing out of you, every last kernel, of the spirit, in you. +In the safety of the orgasm's embrace, you simple float. You are nothing anymore. And everything in the Universe.

We were asked to speak on being poly, swingers, and mine and my husband's relationship, specifically. We've had friends in the poly community for years, but this was the first time we'd gone to a meet-up. +When me, my husband and Randal, my main boyfriend, who has been living with us on and off for the last five years, arrived at the meet-up, there was only five other couples there, along with Greg. Greg is the one who hosts the meet- ups. +Greg is divorced, but he's been in the lifestyle for almost twenty years now. When we arrived, Greg welcomed us and thanked us for showing up. Greg told us that he was expecting at least twenty other couples to show up. +The meet-up was held at a Mexican restaurant. We had the whole restaurant to ourselves that night. The couples that arrived were everywhere between their thirties and their fifties. Greg told us that there was going to be a lot of new couples showing up that had never done swinging or poly. +As couples showed up, Greg introduced us to peope that he knew and had known for years. We also talked small talk with people who admitted to us that they were very new to the lifestyle. +Once everyone was situated, seated and had ordered some food, Me, Ray and Randal were introduced. +Ray, my husband, sat on my left and Randal sat on my right. I stood up and told everyone, ""My name is Amber. On my left is Ray, my husband. And on my right is my lover, Randal."" Ray and Randal both smiled and nodded. +I told everyone, ""I have been in an open marriage for thirty-three years. I'm poly, meaning that I am in-love with both Ray and Randal. Yet, I also like to go out and meet new people and just have sex with them."" +The looks on everyone's faces were different, yet they didn't appear to be judgemental. +I explained, ""Many people in the poly community see swinging as a lower form of ehthical non-monogamy. And many people do not see, or agree, that poly and swinging can, or do, mix well. I'm here to tell you that the two can very well go hand in hand, and you can be successful in each, if you so decide."" +I told everyone, ""I am very much in-love with my husband, Ray, but I am also very much in-love with Randal. I am also in-love with Frank, who currently lives in California, but often comes through town and stays with us. I am also currently involved with a man named Mike, who is currently in Arizona, but lives here in Colorado from May to October."" +I could see some confused or interested faces in the group. Instead of doing a monolog, I told everyone that if they had questions to just raise their hand. Immediately one woman raised her hand. +I pointed to the woman who had raised her hand and she stood up, ""My name is Sarah. Me and my husband, Al, are new to all of this. We've read a lot but, in your mind, what is the difference between swinging and poly?"" +I thanked Sarah for her question and told her, ""I can't speak for every poly or swinger woman out there but, to me, there isn't a whole lot of difference. Sometimes I have just sex with the men I love, and other times I actually feel loved by the strangers I just have sex with."" +I looked over at Greg, then I told everyone, ""The first time Greg and I hooked up, it was at a house party. I was in what they called the dark room, there were no lights and it was a touch and feel kind of thing. Greg and I had sex, a couple of times. And to this day we're friends. Do I love him? Yes, I do. As a friend. We are not in-love, but we are friends . . . with benefits."" +I then looked at Randal, then I told everyone, ""Randal is an amazing man. Ray and I met him at the Squirel Creek Ranch, a swing club. He was actually having sex with another woman when we first saw him. The woman was in the swing, and Randal was just going at it. What got me interested was when he winked at me and motioned for me to come closer. And I did."" +I explained, ""When I got closer and Randal said ""That's my girl,"" I was kind of hooked. I can't say what it was about him that attracted me, but I was attracted. When he made love to me, after this other woman, that was all it took. I wasn't sure why, but I had deep feelings for him. And that's the part that I will talk about tonight."" +Another woman stood up and raised her hand. She was in her mid forties, I assumed. She and her husband looked like normal, middle America types. She said, ""So, Randal had just had sex with another woman and you immediately let him have you?"" +I looked at Randal, smiled and told the woman who had just asked her question, ""Well, Randal was still hard, the swing was empty and available, and I was attracted to Randal. So, yes. I did let him have me."" +The woman who had asked the question then asked, ""But you didn't know him. And from what you've said, other than him saying that's my girl, you hadn't really even met or talked to him, and you let him have sex with you?"" +I answered this woman, ""You have to remember that we were at a swing club. And people go to swing clubs to have sex."" I asked this woman what her name was. +The woman replied to me, ""My name is Jessica."" +I told Jessica that I was glad she was asking the questions she was asking. +Jessica smiled, then asked, ""So, you had sex with Randal, in a sex swing, I assume. And he's been your lover ever since?"" +I told Jessica, ""I knew there was something about him, right off. And, yes. I did fall in-love with him, eventually."" +Randal stood up, ""I have to tell you that meeting Ray and Amber was a bit different for me. I'd been with numerous women before Amber, but there was something special about her. And to be honest, Ray is not the typical guy, as far as I'm concerned. A lot of couples that swing, usually the guy, the husband, is looking for sex with other women, too, but not Ray. He just wanted to watch."" +Greg inerjected, ""Ray is what you call compersive. He gets his joy from seeing other others happy."" +Jessica's husband stood up, ""My name is Carl. I have to ask Ray, and I guess, Randal, don't you ever get jealous?"" +Randal looked at Ray, then said to Carl, ""I have other women, too. If I can't be with Amber, for whatever reason, I have other options."" +Carl then asked me, ""Amber, don't you get jealous knowing that Randal is getting sex with other women?"" +I smiled, ""Randal is a man. So, is Greg. I have sex with both of them. I just have sex with Greg, because he's a friend, and that's what you do with friends. I'm actually in-love with Randal but, I also know that he likes variety as much as I do."" +I explained, ""To me, sex is just something you do with friends. And I'm in no position to tell anyone who they can and can't have sex with. I know that Randal loves me, even when he's having sex with someone else. When someone loves you, you know it. And just because Randal has sex with other women, that doesn't mean that he loves me any less."" +Carl then asked Ray, ""And none of this bothers you? Amber can have sex with anyone she wants, and even fall in-love with other men, and you're never jealous or fear that she will leave you for someone else?"" +Ray stood up, ""Carl, love is love. You can't restrict it. You can't control it. You just have to feel fortunate when you are loved. Just because Amber enjoys sex with other men doesn't mean that she loves me any less. It just means that these other men are enjoyable and fun, and that she likes being with and playing with them. In the end, she's my wife. She loves me. I love her. And, best case scenario, she feels loved, too."" +Another man stood up and introduced himself as Dan, He said to Ray, ""Mary and I have been in, or had, one threesome with another woman, and another time with another man. And I have to admit that when there was another woman, it was exciting and a turn on but, when there was another guy, I wasn't sure what to feel, or how to feel about what I was feeling."" Then he asked, ""Do you ever feel intimidated?"" +Ray asked Dan what he meant by intimidated. +Dan looked down, then answered, ""Well, when there was another guy, he was hung like a fucking horse. I'm not small, but compared to him, I was. And when he and Mary were going at it, I felt intimidated. He was bigger, lasted forever, and he got Mary off without her having to use a vibrator. So, what I'm asking is, how do you deal with it when the other guy makes you feel inadequate?"" +Ray told Dan, ""To be honest, I like that Amber has met and been with men who are a lot bigger than I am."" Ray admitted to Dan, ""When I am fully erect, I am only four and a quarter inches long, but I am, luckily, five and a half inches in circumference."" +Ray looked at Greg, then said, ""Now Greg is more than twice my length and a bit thicker than I am."" Then Ray motioned to Randal, ""And Randal beats both of us. He's a lot thicker than both me and Greg, and he has a bit more length, but both of them do Amber well. And she loves being with both of them."" +Ray continued, ""Because Amber has been with so many men, she now has a preference for larger cocked men. I can't speak for her, but I do know that she enjoys me and she enjoys other men. And, the way I see it, if another man can do for her what I can't, then cool."" +I told Dan, ""I admit that I do like larger cocked men, for sex, and I do like darker skinned men, and uncircumsized men, but that's just a preference. The men I hook up with don't have to be black or have huge cocks. They just have to want me. And if they are black, bigger cocked and uncircumsized, then that's a bonus."" +Dan asked, ""This is for you, Ray and Greg. How does it make you feel knowing that Amber prefers black men, and the fact that Randal is bigger than both of you, I mean, don't you feel intimidated by Randal?"" +Greg smiled, ""Randal and I have been with Amber, at the same time, many times. And I think we've made a great team. I've been in many threesomes. And I'm always grateful to just be a part of it all."" Greg told Dan, ""If another guy is having sex with your wife, and he's bigger than you are, and he may have skills that you don't have, just be glad that your wife is able to have that experience."" +Mary stood up, ""Amber, do you agree or disagree that no matter how good of a lover a man is, that doesn't change your love for the man that you're in-love with?"" +I smiled and told Mary, ""The best sex I ever had was with seven exceptionally well hung black men. And, no. Randal wasn't one of them. But then, when we lived on Guam, I had some really good experiences, too. And I still get with all seven of those black guys from time to time, kind of often, but being with them doesn't detract from my love for Randal or Ray. They're just really good lovers, and I really enjoy being with all of them at the same time."" +Mary asked me, ""So, these men gang bang you. You don't love them, or do you?"" +I giggled, ""I love them when they're with me, but I don't love them love them. They're awesome lovers, but they're not men I want to have relationships with."" +Mary asked, ""What makes you decide if a man is someone you want to be in a relationship with and one that is not?"" +I looked at Greg, then I told Mary, ""Greg and I are friends with benefits. He enjoys having sex with me and he's a great friend, but he's not in love with me. And vice versa. Greg doesn't want anything more than friendship and sex with me, and I feel the same way. Randal, on the other hand, fills my love tank, and he fills me in other ways, too. But there's a difference. Randal is my lover, my friend and I'm in-love with him. Greg, on the other hand, is a good friend who just happens to also be very good in bed."" +Janis, a friend of ours and one of Greg's lovers, shouted out, ""I'll second that!"" +I introduced Janis to everyone. Janis then said, ""When we first met Greg, we were new to the lifestyle, too. And Greg made me and Jeff feel comfortable. He had been in the lifestyle, he was confident, he ended up being a really good lover, and he's been a really good friend ever since."" +Another woman stood up and introduced herself as Eileen, ""We're new to the lifestyle, too. I know you're tonight's speaker but, I have to ask. Greg, how many women have you been with, and how many of them have been married?"" +Greg answered Eileen, saying, ""I don't keep track of how many women I've been with. What I can say is that I have been in the lifestyle for several years, both when I was with my wife and since, and I have had the pleasure of getting to know many wonderful people, both single women and couples."" +Eileen paused, then said, ""I guess this is for all of you. You have sex with multiple people, sometimes several people at a time, and I guess that's more swinging than poly. Or is it?"" +Greg answered first, ""The word polyamory is derived from the root words poly, meaning many, and amor, meaning love, hence the meaning many loves. So, as with a mother who has two children, or more, she loves them all, most likely, no more one than another. So, we all have others that we love. We just happen to also have other people we just have sex with. We're still poly. We just also play with others just for play reasons."" +I added, ""I have Ray and Randal and a few other men that I can honestly say that I am truly in-love with. Now, I also have to admit that I also really like getting with strangers, just for sex."" +Jessica then asked, ""So, you can be both poly and a swinger?"" +I nodded my head. +Randal stepped up and commented, ""I'm not monogamous, by nature. I'm not sure I could ever be completely monogamous with one woman. I truly love Amber. As a matter of fact, I'm very much in-love with her. I feel like we're soul mates. I just want and need to feel other women. It's just who I am."" +Another woman raised her hand, said her name was Kelly, then asked, ""If you're truly in-love with each other, then why do you need other people to have sex with?"" +Ray stepped up for this one. He told Kelly, ""I love Amber more than anything in the world but, I'm bi. And there are times when I need to be with a man. Amber can't fulfill all of my needs. And if you really think about it, there are times when she doesn't even have the right equipment that I need."" +Dan raised his hand and I pointed to him. +Dan sighed, then asked, ""How common or accepted are bi men in the swinging and poly community?"" +Ray answered, ""To be honest, bi men are not widely accepted. Still, even today, people see man on man sex as gay. And, unless your poly situation is with two women and a man, bisexuality isn't really accepted. A lot of people think that if you are in a situation where you're around women who are willing to have sex, why would a man want to be with another man? In my case, I like to be with men because I like to be with men."" +Dan asked if he could ask another question. Ray nodded. +Dan sighed again, ""Okay. So, if you're . . . I mean. So, if, when you go to swing clubs, what do you do?"" +Ray smiled and chuckled a little, ""Well, I prefer to watch, mostly. Yet, if I am able to hook up with a woman, I like that, too."" +Dan then asked Ray, ""So, you've never got with a guy at a swing club? Right?"" +Ray shook his head, ""Sadly, no. That really doesn't happen."" +Randal interjected, ""Well, it kind of does."" +Randal looked at Ray, then back at Dan, ""Ray was the first guy that ever sucked me. Amber asked me if I would let him. And, against my better thoughts, I let him. And to be honest, he's pretty good at it."" +Dan's eyes widened, ""So, have you ever sucked Ray?"" +Randal shook his head, ""That's not my thing. And, other than Ray, no other guy has ever sucked me. Would I suck another guy? No."" +Dan lowered his head again, then looked up, ""Mary wants to be with other men. I want her to be with other men. And I also think it would be nice if I could hook up with another woman, but I'm also bi. I mean, we both think we're poly, and we want to find out. But we're new to all this. And swinging isn't totally off the table for us, either. So, that's why we're here tonight. We want to learn as much as we can, meet people in the lifestyle and go from there."" +Mary asked me what it was like having sex with a man who wasn't my husband. +I giggled a little then told her, ""When Ray and I got married, I had sex with an older black man before I ever had sex with Ray, and it was on our wedding night."" +Mary asked, ""But you were married?"" +I explained that Ray and I had known each other for less than a week when we got married, and we didn't have sex until after we were married, after I had already had sex with the other guy. +Mary then asked Ray, ""So, I'm assuming that you and Amber don't have sex very often. And if that is the case, what is your marriage, really? I mean, aren't you more roommates than husband and wife?"" +Ray looked at me, then back at Mary, ""Just so you know, we do have sex, Amber and I. She prefers sex with other men but, we do have sex with each other from time to time."" +I told Mary, ""It's not like I don't enjoy Ray, sexually. He just prefers to watch. And I really don't mind. Luckily, we've always had an open marriage. And since Ray isn't the type to initiate sex, I'm glad I have other men who aren't afraid to."" +Mary looked at Dan, then she asked, ""So, if, let's say, we go to a poly thing, or a swing club, and I meet a guy and have sex with him, and I really like the sex we have, what do I say to or tell Dan?"" +Greg interjected, ""The one constant in poly and open relationships, or what should be a constant, is honesty. Now, if you hook up with a guy and really like the sex you're having with him, it should be obvious to anyone watching or seeing you. But, honesty and constant communication is the key to any relationship, especially in ethical non-monogamous relationships."" +Mary looked a little confused. So, she asked, ""Okay. So, if I meet a guy and have intense, amazing sex with him, or Dan meets someone and has incredible sex with them, we should tell each other? Like with all the details?"" +Ray told Mary, ""I really like hearing all the details. Even though I get to see Amber when she's with other men, I want to know what she was thinking or feeling. I want to know everything. I want to be totally in the loop."" +I commented, ""There are times when Ray asks too many questions, but I don't hide anything from him or Randal or any of the men in my life."" I added, ""There's times when I will see a guy and say to Ray, ""Damn! I'd like to have him in me!"" And he's okay with that. Hell, there's been times when Ray says back to me, ""I'd like him to be in me, too."" So, Ray knows that if I want something, I'm going to tell him. And I expect the same from him."" +Mary asked me if I ever got jealous. +I told Mary, ""Ray doesn't have a jealous bone in his body but, I have to admit that when it comes to him being with others, I do get jealous."" +Then Mary asked, ""Do you get jealous when Randal, or any of your other lovers, get with other women?"" +I looked at Randal, then at Greg. Then I told Mary, ""They're not married to me. They can do what they want. As far as Ray, he is my husband. And I guess that's why I get jealous."" +Randal added, ""Amber may not be my wife, and I don't get jealous when she has sex with other men, as long as I'm there but, when I know that she is with another guy, and I'm not there, but I know it's happening, I get a little jealous, too."" +Mary then asked Ray, ""So, you're compersive. Does that mean that you've never felt jealousy?"" +Ray answered, telling Mary, ""I have no idea what jealousy feels like, but I do know what envy feels like. I know how it feels to wish that I was built like other guys, that I wish that I had the confidence without the guilt."" Ray added, ""Jealousy has never been my problem. My problem is dealing with guilt."" +Mary asked Ray what he felt guilty for. +Ray sighed, tried to force a smile, and said, ""I prefer men to women. I'm married to a woman and crave men. I want sex a lot more than I let on. I often want sex with Amber, but I don't tell her. I often feel I don't really deserve sex with Amber."" +Ray explained, ""My mother wasn't into sex and saw it as nasty. She pretty much raised me to feel guilty for wanting to have sex. She actually told me that a man wanting to have sex with a woman is bad. She told me that when a man puts his cock in a woman that he is abusing her. So, I grew up with a lot of guilt and a mother who was very good at guilt tripping."" +Ray continued, ""Before Amber, I mostly only had sex with guys. And then she had sex with another guy on our wedding night. What that told me was that she liked and wanted sex but, I felt that she needed sex from men who were suppose to have sex with women. I felt that the other guys could be the bad guys. By not wanting or asking Amber for sex, that made me a better person."" +I intervened, ""And I hate that. There's times when I want sex with Ray, but I'm not sure if he wants me or sex at all. Guilt can be worse then jealousy. Trust me."" +I added, ""Although I have boyfriends and lovers, I still sometimes want sex with Ray. And because of his guilt, I don't say anything. And because he doesn't ask for sex, I often feel that he doesn't want me. And it's important to me for Ray to want me and to want to have sex with me. Even if we don't have sex, it's nice to know that he wants it with me."" +Mary told me, ""It sounds like you have a complicated life and marriage."" +I smiled and asked, ""What relationship isn't complicated?"" +Mary asked me if I had the opportunity to go back in time, would I change anything? Would I possibly be monogamous? +I looked at Ray, then I told Mary, ""Monogamy would never have worked for us, not with Ray's guilt and him being bi and me liking and wanting sex with other men."" +Mary then asked, ""Do you think that poly or swinging is good for other people?"" +I smiled and told Mary, ""If you fall in-love with another man, you don't have to leave Dan, especially if you are both in the lifestyle, and if the other guy is in the lifestyle. What you have to watch out for is people who want to marry you or take over your marriage. You can't get involved with someone that wants you to just be with them."" +Mary then turned her gaze to Greg and asked, ""So, how many people in poly, or swingers, divorce? I mean, is the percentage of people in the lifestyle . . .I mean."" +Greg could see that Mary was struggling to put words to her inquiry. So, he got out a notebook and read, 'Multiple studies have shown an increase in marital happiness in open marriages. In one research piece by Bergham and Strand of 1092 people - who were in swinging open marriages - showed 80 to 90 percent of the people were happier after they started to engage in the swinging lifestyle. Even 50% of those who reported were ""very happy"" before swinging, felt themselves to be even happier after engaging in the lifestyle. Another study by Timothy Wolf showed 76% of the open marriages as having a better than average or outstanding marriage.' +Greg gave his personal opinion, ""I've been in this lifestyle a long time, maybe not as long as Amber and Ray, but a long time. And, in the time that I've been in the lifestyle, I have only known of two other couples, other than me and my ex, who divorced because of the lifestyle."" +Randal told Mary, ""I'm involved with two other couples. They're both married. And they both have told me that their relationship has improved since I got involved with them."" +I told Mary that my marriage improved when he came into our life. +Just then, a very large woman stood up. She seemed either angry or pissed off or something. She said, ""All I've heard tonight is sex, sex, sex. I thought this was a poly meet-up."" This woman looked at me and said, ""It seems you go to bed with anyone that has a big enough cock, especially if they're black."" Then she looked at Ray, ""You're a little dick fag who gets off on the fact that your wife is a complete slut."" Then this woman looked at Greg and said, ""And it seems that you're our resident expert because you're wife left you for some other guy, or girl."" +We were all caught off guard. And the woman continued, ""For nine years I was part of a poly quad. Me and my husband were handfasted to another couple. I helped raised their kids. We all loved each other. It wasn't a sexual thing. Yes, my husband had sex with the other woman, but it wasn't just a sexual thing. We were handfasted. Poly is about love and commitment, trust and honesty. When it becomes sexual, that's when it's no longer poly. It's just sex."" +This woman wasn't too belligerent, so we let her continue. She added, ""If you want to be a slut, then be a slut. But don't call yourself poly just because you might have feelings for a guy that fucks you. And don't think that just because a guy wants to go to bed with you that it means he cares about you. Most likely, he doesn't. And it doesn't even sound like you're really swingers, either. To me, you're just out for a good time, to get laid or get your dick wet. And that's not the way it's supposed to be."" +Greg asked this woman if she was still part of a quad. She told him, ""No. My husband started seeing his ex-girlfriend, and having sex with her, behind my back and secretly. The other wife was secretly having sex with another couple without telling any of us. And my other husband was secretly having sex with my best friend. It turned out that I was the only poly person in our quad. Everyone else was just out for sex."" +Greg told this woman, ""It sounds to me that what may have broke up your quad was dishonesty, not sex."" +The woman retorted, ""My husband wasn't just seeing his ex. He was also sleeping with my best friend. My other husband wasn't just sleeping with my best friend. He was also getting with the wife of the man that his wife was fucking. We also had another couple that were close friends. And the wife of the other couple, I found out, was also sleeping with my tertiary. Her husband was a lot like Ray. He had a little dick, too. I tried to get him to sleep with me, and it almost happened, but he couldn't get hard."" +I asked this woman, ""Had your husband told you that he wanted to include his ex in your quad, would that have made a difference?"" +The woman stated, ""I hated his ex. I still do. She's this little thing. She struts around in her tight little outfits. He says that he loves that she is so flexible. My tertiary had to have sex with my best friend and our other friend. No. I wish I never knew."" +Randal put in his two cents, ""It sounds to me that there was a breakdown in honesty and communication, as well as feelings of betrayal. It doesn't sound to me that sex was the real issue."" +I told this woman, ""Ray knows about all my boyfriends. All my boyfriends know that I have sex with other men. Ray is usually there when I have sex with whomever. And when Ray has sex with someone else, I know about it. That's what being in an open marriage is all about, trust, honesty, communication and not keeping secrets. And it seems that none of that was followed in your case."" +This woman replied to me, loudly, ""You think?"" +Ray joined in saying, ""You mentioned that you tried to get the one guy to have sex with you, but he couldn't get hard. So, it appears that you wanted sex, too."" +The woman sighed, then said, ""Of course I wanted sex. Everyone else was having it. My husband had his little sex fiend, my husband and my tertiary were both doing my friend, the other wife was getting her thrills. And where was I? Alone. We were supposed to be poly, in-love, and that wasn't there."" +I told this woman, ""Here's the thing. I love Ray. He's my husband. And I love Randal. He's not only an incredible lover, he's also one of my best friends. My other boyfriend, Scott, is also a really great lover and a great friend. And I am in-love with him, too. Mike is my wild man. He's kinky. He loves to get me gang banged. And I love him for that. Yes. I have sex with a lot of men, but I love them all. I may not be in-love with every man I have sex with, but I love them on some level because they make me feel loved. And I think that's what you're wanting."" +The woman started crying and said to me, ""You probably have sex with more men in one day than I have in my entire life. It's not fair. And they probably love you, at least Ray and Randal and Scott and Mike do. And you've even had Greg. I give and I give and I give, but probably not like you do. You're a slut. And you're proud of it. I got into poly for love, and I got nothing but pain. You spread your legs and you get men that all they want to do is pleasure you. I don't think I'm asking a lot."" +I told her, ""When I get with a man, I'm not looking for love. If it happens, great. I don't consider myself a slut. I prefer slutty wench. I get men because I make myself available. Men get sex with me because they make their wants known to me. It's all about putting yourself out there without expectations and being happy when things happen."" +The woman responded, ""I'm not sure I want as much sex as you get, but feeling loved is important to me. And I haven't felt loved in a very long time."" +Mary asked me, ""Do you feel loved when you get gang banged?"" +I told Mary, ""I feel loved anytime I have sex. I even feel loved when a man lets me go down on him."" +I finally asked the woman from the quad, who was hurt and angry, what her name was. She told me her name was Tamsen. +Then Tamsen asked me, ""So, you even feel loved when a stranger just wants to fuck you?"" +I told Tamsen, ""I don't think guys just want to fuck me. They want to be in me. They want to cum inside of me, to become a part of me. That's what makes me feel loved. I don't compartmentalize. Sex involves love and love involves sex. To me, they're intertwined. The way I see it is that you can't help but feel some love for a man who wants to pleasure you."" +I further explained, ""Swingers often try to compartmentalize. Poly people look to have love in their relationships. I combine the two. I'm always open to sex, with most guys, because I know I'm going to feel loved by them. My love languages are physical touch and words of affirmation. And sex fulfills both of those for me."" +Then Tamsen asked Ray, ""How do you feel loved by Amber when she's got some other guy's cock in her?"" +Ray told Tamsen, ""I love Amber. I love seeing her happy. And there's a lot of guys out there that have made her really happy. I prefer thinner women with smaller breasts, as Amber says, ""You like boys with tits."" And Amber prefers to be with men who are tall, dark and handsome. I love seeing Amber happy. And when she has sex with other men, and they make her happy, that makes me happy. And she knows that I love seeing her with other men. So, she shows me that she loves me by having sex with other men."" +Tamsen thought for a moment, then asked Ray, ""So, you like men, or skinny women, but you prefer to watch Amber have sex with other men?"" +Ray told Tamsen, ""I've tried to be with other women, but it's never worked out. And, luckily, I have a boyfriend, or I'd mostly have to go without. And I really respect men that get with Amber. They have the right tool for the job, they have stamina, and I love seeing them naked."" +""So,"" Tamsen said, ""You feel loved by Amber because she lets you see her with naked men that turn you on."" +Ray answered Tamsen, ""I'll admit that there is something special about seeing her suck another guy's cock. And I do love seeing another guy's cocks sliding in and out of her. I love watching. So, both Amber and the guys make me feel special, even though all I'm doing is watching."" +Tamsen interjected, ""But you're compersive."" +Ray nodded, ""Yes. I am. But seeing how happy the guys are when they're with Amber is awesome. And when they make her cum, that's the cherry on top. I have always lived by the phrase ""The gifts we give to others are the gifts we give ourselves, because the joy you receive in giving is the ultimate reward."" +Tamsen then asked me, ""I know you feel loved when you have sex with other men but, since you and Ray rarely have sex, how does he make you feel loved by him?"" +I looked at Ray and smiled. Then I told Tamsen, ""I feel loved by Ray because he doesn't say no to me. I don't think he even knows how. I feel loved by Ray everytime I'm with another guy, especially a black guy. Ray doesn't have to let me be with other guys, or let them be with me. He does so because he loves me."" +I added, ""If I didn't feel loved by Ray, I wouldn't have stayed with him for all these years."" +Greg told everyone that if there were no more questions that we should all pay our bills. And he invited everyone to go to a karaoke bar. +While, and after, everyone paid their checks, Tamsen asked for my number and asked if we could talk again. I said yes. Dan talked to Ray, and he and Ray exchanged numbers. And a bunch of us went to the karaoke bar. +We didn't expect things to go the way they did, but that's how things go. I was happy that me, Ray, Randal and Greg were able to share our experience with others. And we actually made some new friends. +A lot of people get hung up on labels, or preconceived notions. You can't do that. Just because a married woman has sex with a lot of other men, that doesn't make her a bad person. And it doesn't make a man bad if he wants sex. +I'm poly because I am in-love with more than one man. I'm a swinger because I like having sex for the sake of having sex. And I am a wife because I am married to a man who truly wants the best for me. +Each of us are unique and special in our own ways. And that's what makes life interesting and worth living." +717,The Poodle's Take On Anal Sex,frustratedpoodle,How To,2004-03-20,2004-03-20,2022-01-04 08:40:17,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-poodles-take-on-anal-sex,Women: consider this rainy day activity.,"['Anal', 'Anal Penetration', 'Anal Scene', 'Anal Sex', 'Anal Stimulation', 'Idea Anal', 'Sex', 'Sex Time', 'Time Make']",4.19,"Sweetsubsarahh wrote an amazing article on the ""how-tos"" of anal sex, and in this writing, I am urging anyone that has not read it, to go there right now and get all the pointers you will ever need to have on the delicate act of anal penetration. Not only does she cover sanitation, but she explains the best way to prepare for it physically, and anyone that follows these guidelines is bound to have a wonderful first time, and many more to follow. +I open with that statement because my essay on anal sex is coming from a different angle. The ""how-to"" is already there for anyone in need of educating. This anal sex essay is a more subjective, persuasive view on the subject. +There are many women out there that are automatically disgusted by the idea of anal sex. After all, there is a perfectly good entrance only inches away that is less dirty, and penetrating it is a lot simpler in every aspect. I used to be one of those women, and for the first five years of marriage, any suggestion of anal sex was met with such comments as, ""Not even on a bet,"" or ""That's an exit, buddy."" +There was a woman that recently emailed me regarding one of my stories where women engaged in intense anal play that insisted I must be a man, because women are incapable of enjoying anal stimulation. Why? Because we are not equipped with a prostate gland. Ah, but we are all equipped with a huge clustering of nerve endings that can bring exquisite pleasure or horrific pain, depending on how your partner treats your anal area. Yes, women do enjoy anal stimulation if it's done just right. It's hard not to enjoy it! +I can't say that anal sex is something I do, or would want to do every time I had sex. When everything is in place, from mood to stimulation, to sanitation, I will not turn it down, but there are a few other factors involved too that turn me on or off of it. +Stimulation is key. For me to enjoy anal sex, I have to be so stimulated that my hundred pound self could go through a wall to get to what's going to satisfy me. Anything less than that will turn it into more a chore than a mutual pleasure, where every stroke makes me wonder if I am being screwed or gutted like a deer. We all know that there are different levels of horny, and we all respond to new things differently on those different levels. Find the level of stimulation that would make the idea of anal penetration acceptable, and never have anal sex unless you are at that level. +If you are having a quickie before work, you can still enjoy it while thinking that you have to be up and getting ready for work in a half hour. If you are having anal sex, you cannot even think of the most mundane responsibility, because anything pending will make many people tense right up. I am a tense little Poodle, so if I am going to have an anal encounter, the last thing on my mind is the checkbook that needs balancing, the jackass that cut me off in traffic, or the dogs needing baths. Then again, I have a friend that says she can relax all her anal muscles on cue, no matter where she is or what she is doing, if she only thinks about anal sex long enough. I envy her that! +Porn stars preparing for an anal scene have the aesthetics to consider. To prepare for an anal scene, they basically go on a clear liquid diet for two days prior. They even use enemas during this time to make sure that when their co-star's member slides out, it's not covered in crap. We normal women tend to be more spontaneous, so this is not a realistic thing for us to do. And why should we want to? Aside from the killjoy of planning, preparing ourselves as though we were going in for a colonoscopy is hardly appealing. Accept the fact that it's not always going to come out clean, even if you are freshly showered. Make sure your mate knows that when he gets this prize, it may not always look like it does on TV. Make sure that he cleans it up. More than likely, it was his idea, right? +On that same note, I don't recommend anal sex after a seven course meal at your local Mexican restaurant. That holds the potential for embarrassment, but it also holds the potential for discomfort, or even pain. I learned this one the hard way. While visiting my folks, my aunt prepared a home cooked, Southern meal with all the trimmings, and later, an attempt at anal sex ended abruptly when I informed my husband that I wasn't sure if I was going to poop myself or if I was going to choke on the country fried steak I swore he was pushing back up with each thrust. +Anal sex is not something that everyone is going to enjoy. Sex is an overall subjective matter, and what works for one person isn't going to work for everyone else. Women shy from anal sex because they are told very often that this is wrong or somehow deviant. They shy from it because it just seems stupid, when again, there is another hole right there for the taking. But ladies, reconsider. +I say this because sex is beautiful. Whatever your preferences you should never fear trying what you haven't tried before, so long as it is between consenting adults and isn't going to hurt anyone on a physical or emotional level. For five years, I was too fearful of anal sex, and almost missed out on a whole new manner in which to pleasure and be pleasured. No, I am not some anal insertion queen, and there are times I just can't get into it, or rather, he can't get into me (remember, I am a tense little Poodle), but I have had amazing experiences when I was able, and I would have missed out on those experiences if I had allowed my fear to win out. +Obviously, if your negative experiences with anal penetration involve something traumatic like rape or abuse, I will not sit here and try to convince you that you have to get over it. That's another story altogether, and one that I am not qualified to help a person with. A negative experience in all other cases can turn anyone off, which is understandable. Not everyone likes conventional sex the first time, but just about everyone will try it again, though, and armed with that attitude, you can probably learn from the time(s) before and make the next attempt a positive experience. But you have to be open to trying for that to happen. You have to know that you are as capable of getting something out of it just as your partner is. +Ultimately, whatever your preference, fantasy, or particular fetish, when it is all broken down, good sex is about being uninhibited. When you shed inhibition, you gain great sex in return. Strip away particulars, and that is what you are left with. The rest is all...er...filler." +718,Powergasm,ErnstBlofeld,How To,2001-10-09,2001-10-09,2022-01-04 08:37:40,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/powergasm,A healing & fun masturbation and super orgasm producing technique.,"['Energy', 'Feel Orgasm', 'Fill Body', 'Orgasm', 'Orgasm Approaching', 'Orgasmic Energy', 'Start Stop', 'Stop Start', 'Time', 'White Light']",4.4,"Introduction: +Just like Dr. Herbert Benson's groundbreaking book ""The Relaxation Response"" made Transcendental Meditation more mainstream in the 1970s, we now in the new millennium do the same with the growing popularity of Tantra and concepts relating to sacred sexuality. +Although to the dismay of many, Tantra, is not only about sex. Sex really plays a small part in the Tantric universe as many genuine teachers of the subject have pointed out. Therefore, to fully enjoy concepts relating to sexuality, orgasm, and masturbation, without the complexity and confusion of Tantric lore, Powergasm has been streamlined to offer the practitioner an easy and concise technique she or he can use to access the vast cornucopia of extended, and healing orgasm technologies. +If one wants to study Tantra that’s fine, but using Powergasm one can skip all the esoteric intricacies and get down to the nitty gritty of it all - which is mainly to feel good! +Our philosophy is that anyone can reap the benefits of mind shattering orgasms without having to commit to a rigorous program, or as in the case of ""Tantra"" - shelling out hundreds to thousands of dollars to so called ""Goddesses"" or ""Tantrikas"" that are nothing more then shrewd business persons who have exploited an ancient art in order to make a fast buck for themselves. +The Powergasm technique can be learned very easily by people of all ages no matter what your ethnic, educational, religious, or financial background is. +Actually, the Powergasm technique is as old as time itself. It wasn't invented by anyone because its always been there within the mechanism of the universe, God, our minds, and body. The author of this article did not create it, nor did the mentor who taught it to him. Powergasm is a natural and beautiful phenomenon that can be accessed by all persons attempting to bring it about. It's really been passed down for thousands of years - sometimes know as one thing, and other times know as another. Powergasm is only the current name used in order for people to become more familiar with it in their daily lives. +Think of Powergasm as a meditation practice, as well as a creative visualization exercise that if done every day (at least three or more times a day for some) can greatly expand a persons orgasmic acumen to greater heights. We are not really interested in its mechanisms or how Powergasm works – we are only here to teach it. +""Remember, sexual energy and spiritual energy come from the same source. The creative power of sexuality ignites the fire of passion to fill your body with life. You and vitality that accompany this energy connect you with your Eternal Self. Allow your sexuality to be the passion that becomes a powerful spiritual link combining love for yourself and love for your partner with love for the Divine."" +The actual Powergasm technique: +Start to masturbate as you normally do. Guys and gals you know what I mean here. The ladies can play with their clits, or use a vibrator. Continue masturbating and don’t focus too much on climaxing at first. Enjoy yourself. Accelerate the experience by fantasying, moaning, and moving around, just have fun. Liberate yourself – if you fancy your next door neighbor or sister in law, go for it, or if you want to watch a video, do that too – it’s only in fantasy! So, pleasure yourself in the normal way. +When you begin to feel the tinge or wave of orgasm approaching – stop! This is very important and what most people find hard to do. Although it’s difficult at first to stop your self from cumming, practice makes perfect, and in the long run, the ability to ward of your first orgasms will be a great payoff. Let all orgasmic sensations slowly subside and begin to masturbate again. +Keep on masturbating and when orgasm feels like it is just about to fill your body, stop again! +This time we are not going to waste that delicious and healing pre orgasmic energy but instead we are going to use it to intensify the super Powergasm we are all working towards. +So masturbate, feel orgasm approaching, stop don’t come, don’t ejaculate just yet, and then hold that energy and feeling and visualize it as a healing and divine white light - see it spreading from your genitals to all parts of your body. Visualize the pre orgasmic energy as a white light traveling to your heart – engulfing it with healing, love, and erotic energy. After it has conquered your heart, visualize it going to your head, then to your mind, and then lay there visualizing your whole nude body surrounded by that wonderful white light. +The trick to achieving the Powergasm technique is to start – stop – start – stop – start…your masturbation until you have built up enough energy within your genital area. It’s not easy, and many of us are tempted to climax when the first orgasm approaches. If this happens, enjoy it, don’t be so hard on yourself, and remember that you have not failed, but instead that you need a little more practice. One can try and squeeze the PC muscle to stop a premature climax. +A good starting point is to start, feel orgasm approaching, and stop three times then climax. After this, or a little more practice you can increase the number of times you are able to hold on to your climaxes. The more one holds on, say 5, 10, or 20 times in one masturbation session, the better and more explosive your climaxes will be. +So what happens after you have masturbated, stopped, visualized, and started up again for 5, 10, 20, or more times? Well, by this time you have had stored up enough orgasmic energy that you are ready to let go and release all that goodness thus bringing intense pleasure to your whole body. You will probably feel the greatest orgasm ever followed by a long and loud moan of pleasure. When one finishes climaxing a surge of joy usually comes over your being, and if the Powergasm technique is done correctly you will start to smile then laugh. Why does the laughing happen? Beats us, but we figure it has something to do with the orgasm triggering the release of some chemical in the brain that makes you feel happy and ecstatic. It's like taking a drug - but in this instance, the drug is not harmful but helpful! +Overview of Powergasm technique: +Start to masturbate as usual. +When you feel like you’re going to cum, stop! +Take the feeling of the remaining pre orgasmic energy, and visualize it as a white light traveling to your heart, brain and entire body. Visualize the white light of orgasm as a healing modality and pleasure device. +Repeat this as many times as you can. Three, five, ten, twenty or as many times as possible. Start, stop, start…don't forget to bring the energy up to your heart. +When you are satisfied with the amount of times you have held your orgasms, or when you can’t resist the urge…climax, let go, release all the energy! +Feel exquisite, congratulate and love yourself for being a lovely erotic being. +Repeat as often as you like. +Tell, and teach others this wonderful technique! +Keep it free! +Give freely and see how you will be rewarded. What goes around, come around! +Start the cycle! +We wish you and your loved ones many happy orgasms!" +719,Practical Writing / Story Telling,The Avenger,How To,2007-02-06,2007-02-08,2022-01-04 08:37:41,3,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/practical-writing-story-telling-01,"1. Introduction: one author's views on writing erotica. 2. One author's views on classical story structure. 3. Hunting, gathering ideas and drawing up a skeleton.","['Author Advice', 'How To Write', 'Writing Advice']",4.02,"Hi. +I am really grateful for the platform that Lit provided me to use and abuse. This is my way of giving back. +This is intended for new Writers/Authors who are interested in learning a practical, technical method of developing their stories. Since I am posting this on Lit, the article focuses on Authors wishing to write and post on Lit and similar forums. If you use your head however, you might be able to apply the contents to writing in general. I have divided it into three parts. The first part is a broad introduction to some aspects of writing, the second is a look at classical story structures and the third is a description of a method which I find to be practical and effective for developing ideas into stories. +I am an experienced writer of motion picture fiction and give creative writing workshops from time to time. I developed this method by piecing together what I learned in Art School and from my experiences writing and teaching. May I add though that I do not use this method when writing what I submit on Lit (it was never my intention to post for a broad porn audience). If you do read my other submissions, allow me to quote well in advance the Man from Nazareth, who once said, ""Do as I say, not as I do."" +When I attended Art School, I was rebellious. I chose to become an artist because I wanted to be free in my creativity. I did not want to be limited by so called ""established"" rules and conventions. I was like, ""I wanna do my own thing, I don't wanna imitate this or that person..."" I was not the only student with this opinion (artists, right?). +However, a favorite Professor said something very interesting to us. He said, +""There is nothing wrong with breaking rules, but you gotta know them first, so you know why you are breaking them."" +I hope you will find something of use for yourself in these 3 submissions. + **What is a story?:** +Looking at it from an Author's point of view, a story is an artificial construction, created by a story teller to give a convincing illusion of reality. Though you might feel emotional attraction or attachment to characters, events or dialog in a story, these are all really artificial, abstract constructions that only exist in the head of the storyteller, in our case, the Author. +This definition applies even to a story based on real persons and/or events. First and foremost, everyone's memory is selective and subjective. Though we all tend to say, ""This is the way it happened,"" what we should actually say is, ""This is the way I (choose to) remember it."" Even when an author models a character on a real person, he/she can never write everything about that person, without easily reaching a million pages. What you do (or should do) is select aspects of that person's character that are relevant to the story you would like to tell, and leave out the rest. The same applies to any events, places, objects and so forth, that you include in your story. You might equate a story to a map of a city. A map is drawn to a scale and shows a two dimensional plan of a city. You can find real places on it, you can use it to navigate accurately from one point to another, but the map and the city are not the same. Writing a good story is like marking a route on a map, that gives you the easiest, most direct way to get you from your starting point to your destination. + **What constitutes a good story (generally speaking):** +Correct English (or whatever language you are using, smart Aleck): +The first and most basic components of a well written story are correct spellings, grammar and punctuation (except within quotation marks). Errors tend to irritate readers, therefore, it is advisable to use Spell-check and proof read your work. +Disciplined Writing: +Disciplined writing as opposed to carefree waffling gives you a focused story with a clear structure that is easy for a reader to follow. Waffling and aimless, uninspired meandering tend to distract, bore and irritate readers. A skilled Author may like to constantly confuse his/her readers and force them to keep on their toes and use their heads, as Tarantino did in Pulp Fiction. I remember a mate of mine going, ""How come Travolta got shot but he was still alive at the end?"" I responded with, ""Use your head, fool!"" (Pulp Fiction is made up of three plots, and Tarantino or his Editor moved some stuff around the ""time-lines"", so they are not told chronologically.) +Style: +Readers with taste tend to appreciate an author with style, as in, a wide vocabulary, vivid imagery, a clever way with words, usage of puns and well, all those little things that differentiate and elevate a word smith from just another writer, and give him his/her own particular signature. Be assured though that you do not have to be a wordmeister in order to write a good story. And beautiful, superfluous language alone doth not of a boring story an interesting one make. (You may try to aid a limited, dull, redundant vocabulary by consulting a Thesaurus though.) +Emotional involvement: +A story which has impact does not happen in the readers' heads but in their hearts. Readers become emotionally involved if they either sympathize with or despise a character's personality, ethics, goals and actions. The Author has to get the readers to a point where they wish the main characters ill or well. Needless to say, if the readers do not care either way about any of the characters and events in a story, then they will be bored and the story will just breeze past them. They will probably just stop reading way before they reach your carefully planned climax. For example, I will watch Miami Heat because I like them and want them to win. I will watch the Knicks because I don't like them and hope to see them lose. But I don't care about The Pistons, win or lose, so I wont bother watching any of their games. ZAPP!!! BYE! +Tension +Tension is created and heightened through conflicts. The more and the bigger the opposing forces you have in your story, the higher the tension. The opposing forces can come in the form of internal conflicts, whereby a character has to fight against his moral values, beliefs, fears or logic and so forth. Or they can take the form of external forces, as in other people or the environment which make it difficult for a character in a story to achieve their aim. +Suspense +Suspense is created when the reader wishes for a particular outcome, but is not sure if it will come to pass or not. It is also created when the reader fears for a character who is threatened by something or someone. If the outcome of a story is clear after the first couple of lines, you could equate this to attending a boxing match knowing that the ref has been bought and one of the boxers has accepted a million bucks to take a dive after 30 seconds. Unless you were weird, or had a lot of money riding on it, you would simply be bored and would not bother attending the match. +Interesting Plot: +The plot is the sequence of events in your story. Obviously, the more interesting the things that happen in your story, the more interested the reader is. However, ""interesting"" does not that something out of the ordinary or supernatural has to happen in your story. The points in your plot that add to the tension and suspense are ""interesting."" If your story has superb, unexpected ""twists and turns"" going off at spectacular tangents, but they do not add to the tension, suspense or the readers' emotional involvement, then they will have no impact. +Relevance: +The subject matter of your story has to be of some relevance to the reader. You should look at a story like a question and answer session. The question is posed somewhere at the beginning of your story. ""Will he/she succeed or fail?"" Will he/she be caught or not?"" and so forth. +If you write about something that is very trivial and carries no weight for the reader, this is like posing a boring, uninteresting question. Its rare if not impossible to have an interesting answer to a boring question. Why should a reader stick around till the end? +Convincing Logic +Since this seems to a major point of conflict between Authors and readers on Lit, I will devote a fair amount of space to it. +Terms like ""convincing"", ""logical"" and ""realistic"" tend to be confusing. Often, readers post comments like, ""Your story was very realistic (or convincing),"" or , ""Not convincing at all..."" +I have already described a story as an artificial construction. Therefore, how does one give this artificial construction a veneer of realism? A realistic story is one in which your artificial construction makes sense, that is, it has no logical flaws. There has to be congruence between characters you establish, and the setting (physical and social environment) and the plot. +In real life, water flows downstream. However, readers of fiction are very lenient and tolerant. They allow Authors to create worlds where water flows upstream, Vampires prowl the nights, Aliens zoom about in space ships, Terminators come from the future and so forth. At the beginning of your story, you as an Author are free to establish any types of characters and societies, abiding in any sorts of fantastic worlds, which follow any sets of rules that you can conjure. However, once you have established the characters and ""natural laws"" of your story, the readers expect and in fact demand of you to remain bound by them. If you suddenly change any of these, for no apparent reason that can be understood, the readers will sense a flaw in your logic. They will feel annoyed and cheated, like you are playing with loaded dice. +As a kid I once watched a Kung Fu movie with a Bruce Lee look alike, aptly named Bruce Li. The title was, ""The Third Leg of Bruce Li."" Just before the end of the movie, the bad guys had Bruce Li all trussed up on the floor. One of the baddies raised an evil looking machete to hack off Bruce's head. And then, lo and behold, out of the blue, a third leg appeared on Bruce's hip, and kicked all the baddies and killed them. Then it disappeared. Everybody in the cinema fell over laughing, because this was simply ridiculous. Throughout the whole movie, there had been absolutely nothing to suggest that Bruce Li might have some type of third leg. Mind you, I am not talking about his penis here, I mean a real leg, thigh, knee, and foot in a brand new Chinese shoe. Though we were kids, we just didn't buy that. We thought the film makers were dumb morons and we laughed at them. +The same applies to your story. Whilst you do not have to reveal everything at the start, if something of importance, like a third leg, supernatural powers or aliens and stuff is to play a pivotal role later on in your story, you have to at least give the reader some veiled clues. +The same applies to characters. If you establish a character as being morose and very vindictive, and then they suddenly become light of spirit and very forgiving, for no apparent reason, the reader will become irritated. In real life, people can suddenly change and do something unexpected, for no apparent reason (or reasons which we are not aware of). That is life. However, in a story, this is simply irritating for readers. +I have just checked the Feed Back Portal for examples and I picked out this one randomly. Here is a quotation from a reader. I hope the Author does not mind... (Blue88-A study in scarlet) +""JOHN cannot find his soon to be wife at a new years party.... when he does she is face fucking some other guy at the stroke of Midnight.... when John breaks it up the other guy starts a fight... and she slaps JOHN her husband to be in front of EVERYONE... and John decides to marry this cunt? what on earth for? you see this story fails b/c JOHN is given NO motivation about why he decides to forgive her. Does she give great sex? great BJ/s? does she have fantastic tits? is her family fabulously wealthy? WHAT? What is it about her that is SOOOOOO compelling that a street smart guy like John would risk a marriage after that awful Humiliation? Anyone? anyone at all with an answer?"" +I haven't read the story, but I hope you get the point I am trying to make. The reader is not saying, its not realistic for a guy to catch his wife-to-be blowing some other guy at some New Year's Party, get smacked by both of them and still go off and marry her. What he is saying is, its not realistic for this fictitious character that you have established as being ""street smart"", to up and do that, for no apparent reason. + **Selling a story to readers:** +Obviously, when you post a story, you are ultimately selling something to your readers, unless you are writing to live out your fantasies or piss people off. +Any story you write contains some kind of message. This lies in the nature of story telling. In the past, stories were used in all cultures to transport lessons, wisdom and messages to present and future generations. Whilst this may no longer be applicable to all the stories that reach us nowadays, stories are in essence vehicles for transporting something. In other words, selling something. +Generally, it is easy to sell an readers a character they can identify with, especially if they sympathize with his/her goal. Conversely, it is difficult to sell an audience characters with thoughts, morals, behavior and fetishes that they find abhorrent and despicable, unless these people are punished or made to change their opinions. (Kind of like how many people used to go and watch Muhammad Ali hoping to see him getting bashed) +I know this sounds conservative, but readers are generally conservative. More so on Forums like Lit. People who read stories in a particular Cat are looking for stories with a particular direction and fetish. +However, if you write cleverly, you can sell readers almost anything. I mean, the makers of ""Pretty Woman"" managed to sell the conservative, religious folks in the mid west, the south and the rest of the country the story of a millionaire fornicating with and then marrying a common whore. +There are several factors which determine what readers will buy, the most important of which being, +Moral Values: +To put it briefly, this is their sense of right and wrong. Readers, just like cinema audiences, can be made to accept and support a character doing something they consider wrong, if he/she has plausible extenuating circumstances. A good Author can even make his readers end up supporting something they initially considered to be wrong. For example, many homophobic people were made to feel for the gay guy played by Forrest Gump, I mean, Tom Hanks, in Philadelphia, right? +Expectations: +What does a reader expect when they read your story? What are they looking for? +A readers expectations encompass things like; +What type of figure do they want as their main character? +What (or maybe who) do they want him/her to do? +And how do they wish the story to end? +Literotica/Porn Site expectations +Obviously, on a porn site, the majority of readers want ""hot"" sex that they can frig or wank to. However, they expect something more. +For example, readers of Incest want stories about a protagonist who gives in to their lust for close blood relations. They want their protagonist to have wonderful sex, and probably happily continue it. Therefore, obviously if you write a story in which a character commits incest and is punished severely for it by the law or the society, you are not meeting their expectations. +Lesbian and Gay readers generally seem to seek stories about straight people who succumb to their homosexual desires and find hot sex and probably love. They also seem to like stories of straight people that are ""raped"" by someone of the same sex and love it. Therefore if you write a homophobic story about lecherous gays who are punished for their ""gay"" desires, you are not meeting their expectations. (I did it on purpose a couple of times and damn were the gays mad!) +The people who read the Mature Cat wish for stories where an elderly and a younger person succumb to their attraction for one another and find great sex and probably love. I once came across a story in this category about a lonely, sweet elderly lady that was raped and debased by an uncouth, obnoxious young buck who found her wrinkled flesh and sagging breasts disgusting. She then became his willing slut. Needless to say the writer was bashed by the readers of the category. He failed to meet their expectations completely. +I for one do not usually read Non Consent stories because I believe a man who has to force himself on a woman who does not find him at all attractive should be punished (not necessarily coz I am anti sexism, but maybe coz I never had problems getting laid). However, the readers seem to like stories where pretty women are raped and debased and love it, usually for no apparent reason (at least not one that is logical to me). I have only posted once in that Cat. I wrote the story of a teacher who is raping and abusing his students with impunity, until he gets raped and debased himself. I was surprised that the story was well received and rewarded with high scores. I was actually expecting to piss them off. Them readers didn't fulfill my expectations. +Therefore, I would suggest that you carefully consider what the expectations in the Cat you intend to post in are, if at least so that you know when to be prepared for some heavy flak. +Two problem categories: +There are a couple of categories where many Authors seem to fail to meet the readers' moral values and expectations. +Loving Wives is a problem Category. It seems like both Authors and readers agree that ""Loving Wife"" stories should be about cheating wives (Don't ask me why? I mean English is a foreign language from that distant, tiny European Island, right?). However, it seems like most of the readers are interested in stories about wives that cheat on their husbands and end up being punished for it. The writers however, seem more interested in stories where the cheating wives get away with it. Usually the husbands are portrayed as wimps that are physically and mentally inadequate for their wives. They end up as willing cuckolds, who are sometimes even humiliated and made to watch, eat cream pies and perform fellatio on their wives' studs. This usually annoys many readers of this particular Cat, who constantly complain about male humiliation and demand vengeance and retribution. They obviously like cheating wives and vindictive, self righteous, all powerful husbands, but hate cuckolds and wimps. +The other problem Cat is IR. Judging from the people who post comments, most of them want stories about White Men and black women. However, they seem to hold Black Man, White Woman sex to be morally wrong and unacceptable. The fantasy of BM WW sex seems to fascinate them, yet they despise the characters. Therefore, they expect the white woman to be portrayed as whore and and the black man as a brute. They ""demand"" that the IR sexual experience should destroy the white woman, and make her lose everything; divine punishment for a mortal sin, if you will. Stories in IR written by white men tend to satisfy these expectations. +Those written by white women who prefer black men or fantasize of having sex with them do not conform to this and are usually met with the wrath of white male readers. The constant outrage from white readers towards romantic IR stories has led to several Authors in the category posting stories that are intentionally very insulting to white men, which in turn provokes more rude comments from the morons. I for one enjoy pissing those morons off too. +If you post in IR or Loving Wives, you better have a thick skin. +Some terms used in classical writing defined loosely: +Protagonist: The main character in a story. This does not necessarily mean the one whose name appears the most, it means the one whose story is told, the one whose aim is defined, whose actions drive the story, and who ultimately fails or succeeds in his aim at the conclusion of the story. +Antagonist: The character who tries to hinder the protagonist from achieving his or her aim. +Plot: Sequence of events, in other words, the things that happen in a story. In a classical story, the plot is usually instigated or provoked by the protagonist. +Sub-Plot: A sequence of events that happen parallel to the main plot. In a classical structure, the sub plot should either aid or hinder the Protagonist in achieving his/her goal. +Plot twist: A point in a story when things suddenly move in an unexpected direction, adding to the tension and suspense. +Sequence: A series of events in a plot which hang together and are connected, with a beginning, middle and an end or conclusion. For example, lets say you are writing a police detective story, about a detective hunting a criminal. You could have a Sequence where the detective discovers that a guy named Nino who lives in China Town might know where he can find his suspect. The detective then tries to find Nino and extract the information from him. The sequence would start off with someone telling him that he needs to talk to Nino. The detective seeks Nino. He finds him but Nino runs away. The detective chases and catches him. Nino refuses to talk, maybe he hates cops, he is loyal or scared, you know the drill. The detective threatens and maybe beats Nino up (the American way). Finally Nino talks, and tells him all he knows. The detective is now closer to finding his suspect. He says bye to Nino, gives him some money or knocks him out. This is the end of the sequence. The story moves on to the next sequence. +Acts: Distinct parts of a plot. Usually, a classical story is divided into three acts, which serve distinct dramatical purposes. Act 1, also called The Beginning, is about the first quarter of a story, Act 2 , The Middle, is about two quarters of the story in length and is in the middle of the story obviously. Act 3, the end is the last quarter of the story. +Don't worry too much about these terms yet, we will deal with them later. + +" +720,The Pregnancy Fetish,PrincessErin,How To,2008-09-17,2008-09-17,2022-01-04 08:40:18,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-pregnancy-fetish,A writer's guide to pregnant characters.,['Pregnancy'],4.28,"My other How To article discussed how to add realism to your stories when making a character become pregnant. I have been asked to extend this topic and discuss how to make stories more believable when you have a pregnant character. +Readers like to have realistic stories when it comes to the details of specific things. The sex can be over the top, but if you make a mistake on certain details, it ruins the story for some readers. Adding a pregnant character can be difficult if you have never been pregnant yourself or have never been around someone who is pregnant. Pregnant characters can occur in romance and erotic couplings stories, especially in situations where a one night stand results in an 'oops'. Stories revolving around the breeding fetish are also common and when you are writing novel length stories, you might decide to make one of your characters pregnant to further your plot. +First Trimester +A woman will find out she is pregnant by either a blood or urine test. You can buy a urine test at the drug store, but a doctor's office may also test for pregnancy in that way. A blood test can also tell if a woman is pregnant, but that can only occur at a doctor's office. The urine test shows a positive right away, however a blood test can take a few days. +Once a woman knows she is pregnant, she might realize that she has signs and symptoms. The list of signs and symptoms of being pregnant is long and detailed. During the first trimester a woman may have swollen breasts, high sex drive, nausea (not just in the morning), heart burn, and have a lack of energy. +Sex during the first trimester can occur and there should be no changes unless she is having a high-risk pregnancy. Miscarriage does not happen with rough sex and since a woman rarely looks pregnant at this stage, all the wild sex positions are fine. +Second Trimester +During this trimester, the signs and symptoms are the same, but the woman's belly will begin to become rounder. Sex can still occur and once again, there is no risk of hurting the baby. A woman might have more energy during this time and her sex drive might increase even more. It is during this trimester that most women will have an ultrasound to make sure everything is fine. This is the time that the baby's sex can be determined. +Third Trimester +During pregnancy a woman's breast size can increase up to two to three cup sizes. She will have a very round belly and her nipples might be darker than normal. Unless she is at risk, sex can still occur, but some positions will not be possible. Imagine a woman who has a large basketball in front her belly. Man on top positions will not work too well since the weigh of the uterus on the woman's body can be uncomfortable. Doggie style and woman on top is best. +It is true that certain activities can help a woman go into labor and doctors agree that sexual intercourse, orgasms, and nipple stimulation, are all good ways to help a woman go into labor. +Labor and Delivery +Although I don't see anything erotic and romantic about giving birth to a baby, I have read stories where this occurs. Most times, it occurs as part of the storyline and thankfully, I have yet to read a story where this is sexy. In any case, some points need to be considered if you are adding this part to you story. +The first thing is that women rarely give birth quickly. Maybe if it is her fourth or fifth child, but even then the process of labor and delivery is long. You can write stories about quick deliveries, but that is not the norm. Labor and delivery is painful and always very messy. Some women will give birth in the hospital, but some can deliver at home. +Multiple Births +I have seen this recurring theme, specifically in incest and taboo stories. It seems common for women to become pregnant with twins or triplets. With fertility drugs, there is a higher chance of having multiples and twins and triplets can be genetic. Still they are not as common as you might think. A woman who is pregnant with multiples will have a larger belly, but the rest of the signs and symptoms of a pregnancy will remain the same. +I know there is a lot more information I could put into his article, but I wanted to make it as easy and realistic for new authors that want to add this element to their stories." +721,Prepare to be Licked!,silentblackwater,How To,2008-05-07,2008-05-07,2022-01-04 08:37:44,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/prepare-to-be-licked,A guide on preparing your woman for cunnilingus.,"['Cunnilingus', 'Cunnilingus Advice', 'Cunnilingus How-To', 'Oral Sex', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Oral Sex How-To', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",4.19,"There are a million little things you can do to prepare your female partner for cunnilingus. Not all women enjoy receiving oral sex, and it actually downright weirds some ladies out, but most at least wish to try it at some point or another. The techniques I will discuss here are valid for anything from a late-afternoon romp with the hotel maid before you go home from your vacation all the way up to a successful, healthy, happy marriage of 30 years or more. I won't be discussing the actual act of eating pussy, just how to prepare your woman (whether you're male or female). +The first order of business is, as many of the other writers here will tell you, to ask what your partner likes or doesn't like. If they have no experience, move on to step two, but if they have done this before, the odds are that they know what they like to at least some degree. When any partner says something is off limits, make absolutely sure you do not do it. This is not a negotiable point! The fastest way to kill a mood and perhaps a night is to do something out of bounds. On the other hand, if your partner makes a request, fit it in by all means. This is more important than it sounds; ignoring your partner's wants at any stage of the game wrecks trust between the lovers, makes one or both parties feel as though they're being used (not pleasantly), etc. Once you have established boundaries, noted requests, and so on, it's time to begin using your mouth. +From now on, every suggestion I make is just that- a suggestion. If your partner (henceforth referred to as ""she/her"") says something on this list is not good, it isn't good, don't do it. That said, let's begin with her mouth. Her mouth is one of the most amazing parts of a body that is built for giving and receiving pleasure of infinite different kinds. The female body is capable of performing in sports for your viewing pleasure, making dinner for your taste buds, conducting business and being a massive success, and any number of other activities. In terms of sex, her mouth can perform delicacies on you that never cease to amaze you. This should be a good hint to SPEND TIME WITH IT! Oral sex begins with the mouth... her mouth. This is your chance to introduce your lips to her, and allow her to see what they have to offer. Do not be afraid to kiss her, explore her lips, suck gently on her tongue, allow her to do the same. But when you are just beginning this journey, stick with the mouth. Resist the temptation to wander to her ears and neck for now. Yes, I know she tastes divine, but enjoy your first taste of the inside of her, and allow her to do the same. If you wish to be romantic, cup her head with your hands lightly (never forcefully do anything until you're actually eating her, unless she is good for spanking or other S&M type activities), whisper loving and/or sexy things to her. All part of your mouth. +Next is the neck and the ears. The neck has some very sensitive places on it. Think for a moment... the neck has loads of prominent veins, arteries, muscles, etc. It is a very vulnerable place on the body for this reason. Gently touch your own neck in several places and see what makes you shiver. Odds are, she will melt to you if you lick her and nibble on her in those places. I'm fond of wrapping my lips around a few specific places myself... one good one is directly below her ear, about halfway down her neck. The lower front is also good, and if you trace your tongue from about the halfway mark on her neck up to her chin, you're worked yourself back into a kiss. Regarding her ears, trace the outside of the ear from bottom to top or vice versa, and you should get a shiver. Suck on her earlobe, you should get a moan. Now here's what no man seems to be aware of: not every woman enjoys your tongue being shoved into her ear! I hear this complaint far too often. Be gentle! Ask first! Incidentally, these insanely sensitive places are all located very close to each other. Regardless of whether or not there's a God, goddess, higher power, or if it was all evolution and luck... that's intelligent design. Use it to your advantage and keep her guessing as to what place she's going to feel your lips next. Don't forget, your lips are magical, if used correctly. Be gentle, then be firm. Drag your lips across her neck as well as your tongue or your teeth. This works best if you have full lips, but can be done by smaller lips just fine. +Once you have finished teasing her from the neck up, it's time to begin your journey downward. Start with her collarbone. The space directly above it and below the neck is usually rather sensitive, and prone to your oral attack. The collarbone itself is also a nice touch, but using teeth is ill advised. There is only a tiny bit of skin between your teeth and the bone, so you'll want to be gentle here. Be very careful if you do use teeth, both for your teeth, and for her skin. The next obvious choice is her breasts. Good. Do not pounce on them, though, or you will have lost all the magic you've worked to create, both for yourself, and her. Kiss your way down to them. Avoid the nipples for a moment or two, licking the flesh instead. Don't forget, there is more to the breasts than nipples, and sometimes the rest of the breast needs some attention too. When you do arrive at the nipples, you can either tease them a bit with your tongue, or you can envelop them with your mouth and tongue. Do not use teeth for the latter, wait to bring in those guys until you've already got her moaning and shifting under your assault. Make sure to spend time on both breasts. If they're big enough, sucking on both nipples at once is sometimes fun, but you may want to check beforehand if both will reach your mouth at the same time. +Here I'd like to interject that if any of these strategies are not working, do not feel obligated to stick with them. Try something else. Not everything works on every woman. Variety really is the spice of life ;) +Thus far I've geared this article towards the semi-experienced lovers, who have at least done a little of this before. At this point, I have to point out a few little variances. Most important of these is that I'm trying to explain how to prepare your woman without actually touching her pussy in any way... building up the sexual tension until you arrive with your mouth. I'm going to break sideways from this for just a moment. It doesn't always work this way. For one thing, inexperienced lovers will have a hard time getting all of these buttons to work correctly without practice. In addition, much of the time your hands will wander down to her slit before you actually get to lick it. I highly recommend you try it without using your fingers before licking, but for those of you who prefer the manual method as a warm-up, a few tips follow. CLIP YOUR NAILS! Or at the very least, learn which way your nails are pointing, which parts are sharpest, etc. The flesh in and around her vagina is extremely delicate, and can be cut very easily. Also, there is more to a pussy than a hole with a clit on top. Don't be afraid to massage her lips, rub near the clit without actually touching, or glide a finger over the hole without entering. Men, if you need an image, that's like jerking off only the head of your penis. It feels good, but lacking. There is no rule written saying you have to pound away at her pussy with two fingers to make her cum immediately. It probably won't happen, and it will kill the mood if you don't do it properly. For the sake of these techniques, go slowly, rub gently, but firmly, and keep your mouth and other hand busy while you work her clit with your fingers. +One final thing before we head way down south. All those tricks I've divulged so far have worked for me, or I wouldn't have told them to you. But what if you're starting with her lying on her stomach? Now you've got a whole new set of places to explore. First of all, you have the chance to embark on a sensual journey through massage. This technique of relaxation has a million forms or more. None of them are going to be taught here, as I'm no professional. My suggestions for your own back rubs, however, follow here. +Do not be too rough on her back. You will only end up twisting/pulling skin, and causing pain. Put your hands everywhere you can reach, and be firm, but gentle. Your hands should be a beacon of warmth and strength for your woman to focus on. If you are female, it will be a different kind of strength (set more in the emotional ties) simply because of physiological and physical differences between men and women, but it will still be strength that you are looking to convey. Work out points of tension on her back and shoulders. When she starts to relax, kiss those points on the neck and shoulders and upper back. Eventually, you'll be exploring her entire back with your mouth and tongue as well as your hands. This should be done gently... the back is more sensitive than we often give it credit for. Think of the last time a lover left scratches on your back. You didn't notice them during the sex, but I'll bet they stung later (not that you minded). The back, especially lower near the kidneys and along the spine, is loaded with nerves for your teasing. Take advantage of them... learn where they are if you have a long term partner, and don't be afraid to explore no matter what kind of partner you have. At no point should your hands be idle. Keep them busy, touch her in any place you can find that she'll respond to, but keep a downward direction. When you find that you've moved down to caressing her ass with your hands (and perhaps your lips, if you feel like being cute), it's time to coax her over and move to the final step. The reason you're skipping all the stuff from before involving her front, head, and breasts is that the back massage is usually a tiring exercise, often for both the person rubbing and the person being rubbed. Also, if you go back up to the top and start again, eventually you'll reach the point of overkill. Not only that, but if you break the downward direction you've started for more than a second or two, the magic and anticipation dwindles. +Finally, the last few moments before you actually begin licking her slit. These are very important moments, because this is the last bit of setup before the delivery. For the sake of the article, we're going to assume this is a one way activity, with her on her back, ready to receive. Once you have her in this position, you should realize a couple of things. First of all, you have complete access to her most private areas. This is a sign of trust, even if it's just a one night stand. She's trusting you to not complain about the smell and taste (hopefully she's washed and such so that there is nothing to complain about), not to turn your nose up at the idea of licking her personal juices, not to give her three licks then demand your own genitalia be taken care of. Secondly, you have the chance here to bring your partner to a massive orgasm before you even make love to her. Not all women can climax from oral/finger stimulation, but enough can that if you know what you're doing, you have good odds. And nearly everybody appreciates a warm tongue on their genitals. Now, with this in mind, treat this opening as an opportunity! Use it to make your partner feel wonderful! This begins with the last few moments of setup. You may have noticed there are a lot of places to lick. Her legs cover a lot of space, and you can lick right up to the skin where her leg meets her groin, and here's a hint... that's sensitive skin area there. Men, think about a tongue next to your balls, women, you probably already know this spot is sensitive, but it's also a great way to build up the last moments before contact. One of the last things you should do before diving in- breathe on it. Don't blow, unless you already know she likes that. Just breathe on it. Your hot, steamy breath will warm her pussy, and make it all the wetter for when you finally begin licking. +Don't forget, these ideas are meant to be a guideline. Not every woman is going to love every technique I've listed here. Always ask your partner what she wants; this builds trust, promotes a bonding between you, and shows her you're interested in her needs, not just in getting yourself off. Remember the following keys: your mouth is a paintbrush, use it as an artist's tool, she has sensitive places all over her body, you just need to find them, and take your time, this is not something that is to be rushed! Good luck, and happy eating!" +722,"Prepare, Eat and Enjoy MREs",SunrockSin,How To,2008-09-23,2008-09-24,2022-01-04 08:37:45,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/prepare-eat-and-enjoy-mres-ch-01,"1.

Again, for those of you not familiar with the basic MRE, it is an acronym for Meal Ready to Eat, the ingenious prepackaged meals enjoyed by military personnel and more recently by hurricane and other disaster survivors. Like any project worth undertaking, the enjoyment of the basic MRE requires several important phases: 1.) Procurement, 2.) Preparation, 3.) Eating and 4.) Other Forms of Enjoyment. In this chapter we will discuss the first three phases. + ** _Procurement_** +Procurement of MREs is not exceedingly difficult. Military personnel usually are handed MREs when they are sent on a mission where food services may not be available. They typically will get these whether they want them or not. Civilians can actually buy MREs at a variety of outdoors type businesses, however, I have not had an opportunity to check the pricing for these items so I can't attest to whether these are economical or not. I dare say that most civilians will obtain the MREs after waiting in various lines for various lengths of time. Typically these lines are found at POD sites, POD is an acronym for Point Of Distribution, or as I observed, at least in the early days of the hurricane recovery, Point Of Disorganization. +Okay, okay, after I got turned away from two sites when either the personnel or supplies did not show up at the assigned distribution points and after I waited at a site for nearly four hours for the personnel to show up late, they did get themselves organized. Anyway, the POD is basically a collection of trailers containing ice, water and MREs where, hopefully, either the National Guard or volunteers will place the ice (two bags), water (one case) and MREs (one box of 12 meals ready to eat) in your car. Of course once you are loaded up, it's time to head home and get cooking. + ** _Preparation_** +Once you get home with the provisions and safely pack away the water and ice, it is time to start preparing your meals. While the MREs may be packaged differently (we actually have received them in a brown box of twelve meals and in white boxes). The box is most likely strapped with two plastic straps which are easily cut away letting you open the box by hand. I don't recommend cutting the boxes open because you might cut into the contents inside which can create a mess. +Inside the brown box you'll find twelve different menu choices, our box included two vegetarian selections. Have each person in your dinner party make their selection and then spread out as much as you can to keep from getting the numerous packets, boxes, and pouches mixed up. Each person will need to tear open their main pouch, keeping the empty pouch as a trash bag. Inside there will be one or two boxes, each containing a pouch of food for heating, several other pouches containing bread, crackers or other snacks, some type of dessert pouch or packet and finally a packet holding napkins, matches, sweetener, non-dairy creamer, salt and pepper and in some meals you actually get your own cute little bottle of Tabasco Sauce. Additionally, there will be a transparent packet holding a rectangular white thing inside, this is the heating packet. +Yes, you heard me correctly, these MREs actually have a means of heating themselves. There you are, no power, light or gas for miles and you are about to eat a hot meal, and yes I mean hot. All you have to do is tear off the top of the heating packet (the packet is marked where to tear), slide in your food pouch or pouches (the ones you want to heat) making sure both pass over the top of that white rectangular thing in the heating packet. +Once your food pouches are inside the heating packet, you will need to add just a couple of ounces of water (there are two lines at the bottom of the heating packet, fill to between the two lines). Immediately after adding water you will hear a bubbling and feel the heat. Quickly fold over the top of the heating packet, slide it back into one of the boxes you removed the food pouch from and then hold the box horizontally making sure the white rectangular thing faces downward. Hold it here for a minute and then lean it up against something with the folded part of the heating packet facing upward. +While you wait, you can look through your other pouches and packets and you'll find an assortment of bread, crackers, desserts and drink mixes that you can prepare for your dinner. After about ten to fifteen minutes you can slide your food pouches out of the heating packet, tear them open and carefully pour your hot meal onto a plate or into a bowl.

Through smaller steps along the way, the training can be taken as far as the dominant woman and the slave would like. This process can also help to push reluctant submissives further along to further improve their submissiveness and respect for their dominant woman. +There are many theories behind femdom toilet training, in terms of its being used to cement a submissive's position by having the slave serve in a way that some components of society consider to be degrading, but also in it being used to show respect to the dominant woman, by honoring all that her amazing, feminine body naturally produces. It is a great way for a submissive with a fetish for dominant women to get into subspace, and especially great for those with an ass fetish, once you get into ""full"" toilet training. +Starting slowly can be beneficial, and each step can be a building block towards the next. These steps do not need to be done in order, and skipping steps is fine based on the comfort level. If you use teasing and orgasm denial with your slave, this can be very helpful in moving your slave through the steps, as being horny can make the slave more highly malleable and interested in the activity of serving as a toilet. Of course, some of the more advanced levels flip this on its head, with training the slave to serve despite a lack of sexual desire, which is used by some mistresses to really push slaves further into subspace and lead to more advanced service. +There are essentially two varieties of toilet training, corresponding to the two types of bathroom activities. Number one, or piss, watersports, golden showers (GS), or champagne, is the first level, and can also be called ""limited"" toilet training. Number two - shit, scat, hardsports, brown showers (BS), or caviar - is the more advanced level, also known as ""full"" toilet training. +This progressive training guide is set up by activity, and it is not intended that you should finish all number one activities before moving on to number two! +The first step for golden is getting your slave accustomed to your golden gift. First, you would have him put his face in the toilet after you pee and before you flush. Next, you can do the same and flush while his face is down in the toilet (but not in the water). After this, you can have him go down on you after you pee, but before you wipe. The next steps depend on how squeamish you might be. You can go right to a golden shower on his body and then face, or you can go in a container, such as a cup, and then dump it on him or into his mouth. +More advanced watersports techniques involve either using a funnel to force the liquid into his mouth, or having him drink your gift right after he has cum. If you are in a cuckolding relationship, you can bring both activities to the next level by having him experience watersports from both you and your boyfriend. +Hardsports can be done with a similar progression, through first have him get accustomed to your brown gift by having him put his face near the toilet water after you have gone but before flushing. Similarly, you can flush while his face is near the water. After that point, your options depend on how squeamish you are and what equipment you have available. You can use dirty panties that have been freshly stained to gag him with, and then pissing into it or pouring piss into it. If you have a toilet chair or box for training him, you can put a disposable plastic container under it (or squatting over it while it is in the tub or shower) to catch your brown gift and them force him to smell it. You can have him transfer it to a plastic bag and put it into his mouth, telling him to bite down. Depending on the strength of the plastic or whether you've placed any holes in it, he might advance his training quickly this way! +Another method involves putting your poo into a sock or panty hose and using it as a gag through which you run your golden gift. More advanced hardsports techniques parallel those for watersports, such as techniques using a large funnel or dental gag to force him to take your brown gift into his mouth, or having him consume your gift right after he has cum. And if he is a cuckold, forcing him to receive hardsports from both of you is the ultimate form of submission. +I hope these ideas are helpful for taking your toilet training domination to the next level. Keep in mind that these all involve simple, basic bodily functions, to which society has attached taboo labels.

Who knew how long it had sat there, dormant? +The night was still, and freezing cold. Glistening snow flakes fell — powdered sugar sprinkled by an omnipotent hand. +It was darker out than normal. Everything seemed so distant, and murky. +The van, however, came in crystal clear. +My halitosis condensed into steam, that poured from a mouth perpetually reeking of pussy. Cautiously wandering to the rear of the vehicle — which had been manufactured prior the catalytic converter — I gazed inside. +Amid the winter scene, the guts of this mobile fuck pad simmered hot — heat radiating from its interior. +Carpet-covered walls lined the inside of the ancient van. +Fake fur — the pigment of a cheerleader's bubble gum — wrapped a star-shaped, vibrating bed. +On a television more obsolete than dial-up modems, a white guy with a perm, bent a black chick with straight hair over a kitchen table, while disco music played. +The home-spun recipe of three different bargain basement colognes filled my nostrils, to the point I felt they may bleed. +A greasy, half-drained bottle of sloe gin awaited atop a homemade particle board dresser, lovingly thrown together with wood staples and duct tape. Beside it, an open package of Magnum XLs spilled over the counter. +From the darkened confines of swinger Hell, I discerned the cantaloupe-colored glow of the Prophet's fire stick. +Although I couldn't see his face, I knew he was there, anticipating my arrival. None of my other acquaintances wreaked of a whorehouse, devoured '70s porn, or had a dong the size of a Christmas Yule log. +Once again, I'd come for advice. Like before, the Prophet would convey his particular brand of profligate profundity. As a result, I'd depart wiser and better than I'd been five minutes previous. +Nobody was ever certain the whereabouts of this intangible nomad. +As far as I knew, none had seen the Prophet's face. Many had heard his voice, but what he looked like was an enigma. Rumor had it he'd done a stint in the joint for tearing tags off mattresses, and copying DVDs. +Over the years, I'd battled angry, naked soccer moms to meet with the Prophet. I'd braved blizzards, crashed my alloy steed through guardrails, and stared down impoverishment to be here. In the end, I knew it would be worth it, when I heard the guru croak, ""Never discharge your gun within city limits."" +At that, the rear doors of the van shut, locking tighter than the legs of a devout nun. In seconds, the vehicle sprung to life, it's headlights carving the void, as it backed out of its parking space, vanishing into the night. +What the fuck—?! That was it?! I'd fended off armies of jealous husbands for that shit?! Legions of lasses, tossing innumerable burning obstacles in my path, all for a mandate I could access from a municipal Website?! +It was more disappointing than climbing Everest, and discovering a Walmart at the summit. +I didn't even own a gun, and if I did, what the hell did shooting it have to do with swinging?! +Despondent, I retreated to my corroded chariot, and limped home. +Folks knew the Prophet spoke in parables. That's why they called him the Prophet. +Still, this latest advice made less sense than the wisdom he'd belched forth the last time I met with him. ""Peel the onion. It has many layers."" +It wasn't until I found myself amid a gangbang of epic proportion that his words made sense. While other suitors literally came and went, the Prophet's guidance resounded through my bitsy brain. +Watching the mismatched battle around me, it seemed strange the woman on the bed — outnumbered 20 to one — was winning. Men were being slain left and right by this ruthless ribald. Many a male stumbled from the mattress that day, as useless as plates of prime rib at a vegetarian convention. +Witnessing the dead depart, I vowed I wouldn't be among their ranks. ""Peel the onion,"" the Prophet telepathically told me from a trash heap behind a Sears in Nepal. +Heeding his recommendation, I suited up for battle, and dove into the fray. Subsequent 10 minutes of combat, I ""peeled the onion"" — stepping aside for the next commando, and removing my condom — while stroking myself. Via this modality, I remained harder than petting a rabid Pit Bull. +After three more vanquished conscripts bit the dust, I garbed my gun yet again, and leapt back into the conflict. I rinsed and repeated this process eight times, during the course of the evening, and never received a mortal wound. +Thanks to the Prophet, I stood resilient, prepared for the undersexed female office worker who strode into the swing club an hour later. +The pearl to this latest nugget of knowledge, however, eluded me. ""Never discharge your gun within city limits.""? How the hell could such asinine advice ever apply to swinging, and the pursuit of Numbers? +""Maybe the Prophet's lost it,"" I concluded, surmising the poor bastard was succumbing to dementia. +It was only upon observing a swing shanty patron spend himself — shootin' his load, while whackin' it to 2-D porn — 30 minutes into the evening, that I made the connection. Fifteen minutes later — when a group of dong-devouring dames arrived — he was less effective than turning down the volume on a car radio, in order to save gas. +It was then I comprehended a dedicated Numbers Guy saves himself for whatever may come. ""Never discharge your gun within city limits."" Sound advice I've utilized for decades. Solid guidance that made the following a reality: +A late night sex soiree, amid frosty Denver suburbia. +By day, it was just another nondescript home, carved into the nondescript sprawl. Maple Street — if you will — since the monsters were due on it. +As night fell, the demons in question — throngs of the horny — congregated, their factory-formed vehicles sucking curb. +Inside the perfect dwelling, the perfect neighbors prepared the perfect play party. The couple — perhaps a mailman, and a therapist, while the Sun shined — loved to fuck, and fuck hard, as soon as the Moon took control of the planet's lighting situation. +Four beds had been crammed into a basement room. A disco ball dangled from the ceiling. Fried grub heaped in robust, tinfoil containers, atop fold-out poker tables. +A wet bar was fully-stocked. A bowl the size of a backyard satellite dish brimmed with packaged condoms. +Pink light lit the entire ensemble. +From a CD player — crusty with dried sperm — Andy Gibb never touched the baritone range. +A hundred folks were invited; 47 would show. It didn't matter. For those who attended, the evening was an unrivaled fuckfest. +A starving trout in a heavily-fished stream, I was hooked. I loved these shindigs, and couldn't get enough. They were a constant source of Numbers. +Although most house parties vary, the bashes held in this home were formulaic. Attendees didn't RSVP for conversation's sake. They came to slice and dice the abject pain they'd incurred, due to being enslaved. +As such, I'd approach these groin galas in the same fashion, every time. Posting-up in the bedroom downstairs, I'd wait for the women to stream in, and take 'em down, as they entered. +It was pure Digits, at these fornication festivals. Nothing else. Simply a matter of, ""How many women can you fuck before dawn?"" +This whitewashed insanity was what most refer to as middle-class America. Everybody pretending they were somethin' they weren't, while gorgin' amid soiled basements, to steal back some of what they'd forfeited, when signin' on for enslavement. +This evening was a split screen straight out of the late Billy Mays' wettest dream. Does Brand A sop up grandpa's errant cumloads quicker from shag carpet, or does Brand B? Let's put it to the test, shall we? +On one side of the screen, Carl — a swingin' buddy I'd invited — awaited zealously for the women to arrive. On the opposite end of the monitor, I geared up for what I'd hoped would be an onslaught. +In the upper right hand corners of each, respectively, were the tallies of Product A, and its competitor. +Some sick-ass shit. I mean, when did sex lose its loving, intimate quality, and become no more than a goddamned game? The answer to that question was less important to me than what brand of dildo Bill Gates prefers, when fucking the masses. +Once the women began arriving, it wasn't long before the blitzkrieg commenced. +Yes, chicks get horny, too. Just as much, if not more, than dudes. +The deluge was swift, as passionate pussy poured into the room. +Carl and I began takin' 'em down like duck hunters armed with machine guns — sometimes two at a time. +Trouble was, Brand A — Carl — stopped soaking up grandma's monthly discharge, from your finest linen, moments after he began. In less than 10 minutes, he'd dropped Little Boy, and sat still, on his side of the mattress. +I, however, remained extremely busy — doubly so, after the lasses with whom Carl had been playing sought stiffened schlong. Since mine was the only adamantine apparatus in the room, they converged on me. +This tsunami of sex continued for roughly four hours, until the cuties in question: +A) tapped out +B) became hungry +C) spiraled into abject boredom +D) were completely sexually unsatisfied, or +E) turned lesbian. +In any event, I was rackin' up the Numbers on this particular night. +When the gates to the amusement park closed, Brand A had logged a mere two, while I'd knocked back 10, and was glowing with energy, as a result. +Heeding the Prophet's timeless wisdom, I'd refrained from discharging my gun within city limits. Thus, I'd played with more women in one evening than most men do in an entire year. +In a group sex environment, if your dong is softer than Marshmallow Fluff, you'll be less sought after than a dentist with rotten teeth. Being perpetually prepared could mean the difference between sex with one woman, as opposed to 10. +— authored by Hugh Mungus" +726,Punctuation Use,velvetpie,How To,2005-02-09,2005-02-09,2022-01-04 08:37:49,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/punctuation-use,Punctuation and its proper usage.,"['End Sentence', 'Exclamation Point', 'Mark', 'Question', 'Question Mark', 'Quotation', 'Quotation Marks', 'Sentence']",4.14,"Punctuation marks tell the reader certain things about the sentence. They can ask a question, they can contain a list of items or they can separate thoughts. Punctuation marks that are commonly used in the English language are the period., the comma,, the question mark?, the exclamation point!, the colon:, the semi-colon;, the hyphen- , the dash–, the parenthesis, left( and right), the bracket, left[ and right], the ellipsis. . ., the apostrophe', the quotation mark"" and the slash/. + **The Period** +The period is used at the end of a sentence and lets the reader know that the statement has come to an end. A period is also used in abbreviations. Examples of this usage are the abbreviation for British Columbia, _B.C._ or for ante meridian, _a.m._ A second period to end a sentence that ends with an abbreviation is not necessary. + **The Comma** +Most of us were taught to insert a comma whenever a breath was meant to be taken. This is a good rule of thumb but please keep in mind that you don't want the reader to be gasping because you've created a run-on sentence. A comma is meant to separate statements or items in a sentence. An example of the proper use of the comma would be, _I love to eat, drink and be merry_. +A comma should also be used when a conjunction is used. Conjunctions are used to connect words, phrases and clauses and common conjunctions are _and_ , _but_ and _or_. An example of comma usage with a conjunction is, _I wanted to talk to him, but he wasn't interested in listening to me_. + **The Question Mark** +A question mark is used to indicate the end of a direct question. An example would be _Are you going to the store?_ If you use a question mark with an abbreviation, the period does not take the place of the question mark, nor should it be omitted. _Have you ever been to Washington, D.C.?_ is a good example of how a period and question mark work together. +Another possible problem is using a question mark in conjunction with quotation marks. Here is an example of one instance of correct usage of the two: Who was the man that said, ""Give me liberty or give me death""? The reason the mark goes on the outside of the quotations in this instance is becauseGive me liberty or give me death is a quote, not a question. +If it was to be a question, it would be handled like this: What he said to me was, ""Are you kidding?"" In this case, the quotations enclose the words because it constitutes a question and it's also dialogue from another person. + **The Exclamation Point** +An exclamation point is used to show emotion and is used with interjections or commands. Some examples would be _Fuck me now! Stop it!_ I've also seen where it has been used to give emphasis to a certain word but I haven't been able to find any documentation on whether it's accepted in 'literary' circles. An example of its usage would be _I couldn't believe how expensive(!) the bracelet was_. + **The Colon** +A colon is used to separate a list of items from the main part of a sentence but the separated section of the sentence must be able to stand on its own. Colons are also used to separate a sentence from a quotation, a phrase that provides introduction or after the opening salutation in a letter. + **The Semi-Colon** +A semi-colon is used to separate two related and complete sentences from each other. I have also seen it used to separate items in a list to give the list better readability. Here's an example of the correct usage of the semi-colon: _My mother let me know what was needed at the store: cake flour, eggs and Juicy Fruit gum_. + **The Hyphen** +A hyphen is most commonly used to separate two words that can stand on their own. Hyphens are also used for numbers, such as thirty-seven and names such as Mary-Anne or Hyde-White. + **The Dash** +The dash is used to separate items that might be enclosed in parentheses. When I need to use a dash, I enter two hyphens which Microsoft Word automatically translates into a dash. + **The Parenthesis (plural, Parentheses)** +Think of the parenthesis as something you whisper to someone at the beginning, middle or end of a statement. The left parenthesis begins the inclusion of the information and the right parenthesis signals the end of the included information. This is an example of the correct usage of parentheses: Michael was cute (his dragon breath curled my eyelids!) and his sister was my best friend. + **The Bracket** +I have to confess that I haven't seen common use of brackets but I thought that they deserve a mention. Most people use parentheses instead of brackets. + **The Ellipsis** +In most cartoons, the ellipsis is used when characters are deep in thought and do not respond. Another popular use is when the speaker begins a statement but then cannot either remember or is unable to finish due to mental or physical inability. An ellipsis can also be used when you want to use a long sentence but want to only use the most salient parts from the beginning and end. Let's look at an example of how the ellipsis is used: _I was wondering ...what the hell was I going to do?_ + **The Apostrophe** +We all met the apostrophe when we learned about possessives and contractions. I won't get into the specifics of either one now but the apostrophe is a well- used item of punctuation. Possessives and contractions will be covered in future issues of how to submissions. + **The Quotation Mark** +Quotation marks have been much simplified by the advent of the word processor. On a regular typewriter, the quotation mark appeared as two apostrophes, scrunched closely together. Now, software programs interpret the quotation mark and give them opening and closing positions. Visually, the marks appear the same, but when printed, the opening marks mirror the closing set. +Imagine a comma. Two commas together form a closing set of quotation marks. Flip the set vertically and you have the opening set. Quotation marks are used to set out printed quotations, to emphasize the title of a specific work or to punctuate a character's dialogue. + **The Slash** +Our last punctuation mark is the slash, otherwise known as the _virgule_. A slash is used when there are two or more words that can be substituted for each other. The one I've seen the most and use frequently is _and/or_. Using this as an example, let's view this use in a sentence: _You may use the scissors and/or clippers to trim a client's hair._ This tells the reader that there is a choice to use either the scissors or clippers, _or_ to use both to trim the client's hair." +727,Punk-Chew-Ay-Shun,Dreams of Desire,How To,2006-09-09,2006-09-09,2022-01-04 08:37:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/punk-chew-ay-shun,"Simple grammar, for simple folks.","['Author', 'Grammar', 'Writing', 'Writing How-To']",4.26,"Yes, I know its knott spellt that weigh, but sum people seem sew con-fused about simple gramma that I decided to post this humble guide and save them – and myself – some time in future. + **The Comma** +Comma usage is in some respects a question of personal writing style: some writers use commas liberally, while others prefer to use them sparingly. For instance, the use of a comma before the 'and' in a series is usually optional, and many writers choose to eliminate it, provided there is no danger of misreading: _We bought hats, gloves, and boots before going skiing._ (Comma unnecessary before 'and') + _We ate bread, cheese, and strawberries and cream for tea._ (Comma needed before 'and' for clarity) +Use a comma before a co-ordinating conjunction that joins independent clauses (unless the independent clauses are very short): + _I wrapped the trout in plastic, but my car still smelled bad for the next week._ (Commas with two independent clauses) + _He invited her to his party and she accepted._ (Comma unnecessary with short clauses) +Use a comma after an introductory adverb clause and, often, after an introductory phrase (unless the phrase is very short): + _After the hospital had completed its fund-raising campaign, an anonymous donor contributed an additional £10,000._ (After introductory adverb clause) + _From the east wall to the west, his house measures thirty feet._ (After introductory prepositional phrase) + _In the top drawer you will find some nylon stockings_. (No comma with short, closely related phrase) +Use a comma to separate items in a series: + _Playing in a band can be exciting, but many people do not realize the hard work involved: constant rehearsals, playing until the early hours, handling drunken audience members, and transporting heavy equipment to and from gigs._ (The comma preceding 'and' is optional unless needed to prevent misreading) +Use commas to set off non-restrictive elements and other parenthetical elements. A non-restrictive modifier is a phrase or clause that does not restrict or limit the meaning of the word it is modifying. It is, in a sense, interrupting material that adds extra information to a sentence. Even though removing the non-restrictive element would result in some loss of meaning, the sentence would still make sense without it. You should usually set off non- restrictive elements with commas: _The people of America, who for decades have lived with grinding poverty and mind-numbing violence, are unfamiliar with the workings of a true democracy._ +A restrictive modifier is a phrase or clause that limits the meaning of what it modifies and is essential to the basic idea expressed in the sentence. You should not set off restrictive elements with commas: _Those residents of London who do not hold secure, well-paying jobs must resent the common portrayal of the city as a land of opportunity._ +Note that you can use two other punctuation marks to set off non-restrictive elements or other parenthetical information: parentheses and dashes. Enclosing parenthetical information in parentheses reduces the importance of that information: _Mr. Brown's driving record (with one small exception) was exemplary._ +Placing parenthetical information between dashes has the opposite effect: it emphasises the material: _Mr. Brown's driving record -- with one exception -- was exemplary._ +Nevertheless, you should usually set off parenthetical information with commas. +Equally important in understanding how to use commas effectively is knowing when not to use them. While this decision is sometimes a matter of personal taste, there are certain instances when you should definitely avoid a comma. + **Do not use a comma to separate the subject from its predicate:** + _Registering for our course before September 15, will save you thirty percent of the membership cost._ [WRONG] +Registering for our course before September 15 will save you thirty percent of the membership cost. [RIGHT] + **Do not use a comma to separate a verb from its object or its subject complement, or a preposition from its object:** + _I hope to mail to you before Christmas, a current snapshot of my dog Ben._ [WRONG] +I hope to mail to you before Christmas a current snapshot of my dog Ben. [RIGHT] + **Do not misuse a comma after a co-ordinating conjunction:** + _Hail fell heavily on the tin roof but, the family was used to the noise and paid it no attention_. [WRONG] +Hail fell heavily on the tin roof, but the family was used to the noise and paid it no attention.

[RIGHT] +Generally, you should not place a semicolon before a co-ordinating conjunction that links two independent clauses.

[RIGHT] +It may be useful to remember that, for the most part, you should use a semicolon only where you could also use a period. +There is one exception to this guideline. When punctuating a list or series of elements in which one or more of the elements contains an internal comma, you should use semicolons instead of commas to separate the elements from one another: +Henry's mother believes three things: that every situation, no matter how grim, will be happily resolved; that no one knows more about human nature than she; and that Henry, who is thirty-five years old, will never be able to do his own laundry. + **The Colon** +When to Use a Colon +The colon focuses the reader's attention on what is to follow, and as a result, you should use it to introduce a list, a summation, or an idea that somehow completes the introductory idea. You may use the colon in this way, however, only after an independent clause: +He visited three cities during his stay in the Italy: Florence, Milan and Rome. +Their lobbying efforts were ultimately useless: the bill was soundly defeated. +My mother gave me one good piece of advice: to avoid wasting time and energy worrying about things I cannot change. +When Not to Use a Colon +You should not place a colon between a verb and its object or subject complement, or between a preposition and its object: + _His neighbour lent him: a pup-tent, a wooden canoe, and a slightly battered Coleman stove._ (Colon between verb and objects) [WRONG] +His neighbour lent him a pup-tent, a wooden canoe, and a slightly battered Coleman stove. [RIGHT] + _Her three goals are: to improve her public speaking skills, to increase her self-confidence and to sharpen her sales techniques_. (Colon between verb and subject complement) [WRONG] +His three goals are to improve his public speaking skills, to increase his self-confidence and to sharpen his sales techniques. [RIGHT] +We travelled to: England, Wales and Scotland. (Colon between preposition and objects) [WRONG] + _We travelled to England, Wales and Scotland_. [RIGHT] + **The Apostrophe** +I'm a big fan of the writer Keith Waterhouse, and belong to his 'Society for the Aberrant Apostrophe', founded after he spotted so many in common usage in daily life. It drives me further up the wall than anything else! +You should use an apostrophe to form the possessive case of a noun or to show that you have left out letters in a contraction. Note that you should not generally use contractions in formal, academic writing. +The car's engine has finally died. (The noun ""convertible's"" is in the possessive case) +I haven't seen my friend for two weeks. (The verb ""haven't"" is a contraction of ""have not"") +To form the possessive of a plural noun ending in 's,' simply place an apostrophe after the 's'. +He has his three sons' futures in mind. +In many suburbs, the houses' designs are too much alike. +Possessive pronouns -- for example, 'hers', 'yours', and 'theirs' -- do not take apostrophes. This is the case for the possessive pronoun 'its' as well: when you write 'it's' with an apostrophe, you are writing a contraction for 'it is'. +The spaceship landed hard, damaging its radar receiver. ('its' is the possessive pronoun) +It's your sister on the phone. (""it's"" is the contraction of 'it is') + **Quotation marks** +The exact rules for quotation marks vary greatly from language to language and even from country to country within the English-speaking world. In North America, for example, you should place double quotation marks ("") before and after directly quoted material and words of dialogue: _One critic ended his glowing review with this superlative: ""It is simply the best film ever made about surfing.""_ +In Great Britain and Ireland, however, you should place a single quotation mark (') before and after directly quoted material and words of dialogue: _One critic ended his glowing review with this superlative: 'It is simply the best film ever made about surfing.'_ +You also use quotation marks are used to set off certain titles, usually those of minor or short works -- essays, short stories, short poems, songs, articles in periodicals, etc. For titles of longer works and separate publications, you should use italics (or underlined, if italics are not available). Use italics for titles of books, magazines, periodicals, newspapers, films, plays, long poems, long musical works, and television and radio programs. + _Once when I was sick, I read a story called 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' which was later made into a film, entitled Bladerunner, starring Harrison Ford._ +Sometimes, you will use quotation marks to set off words specifically referred to as terms, though some publishers prefer italics: +I know you like the word 'unique,' but do you really have to use it ten times in one essay? +'Well' is sometimes a noun, sometimes an adverb, sometimes an adjective and sometimes a verb. +Quotations Marks with Other Punctuation +One question that frequently arises with quotation marks is where to place other punctuation marks in relation to them. Again, these rules vary from region to region: + **Commas and periods always go inside the quotation marks.** +I know you are fond of the story 'The Cat's Paw,' but is it an appropriate subject for your essay? + **Semicolons and colons always go outside the quotation marks**. +She never liked the poem 'Ozymandias'; in fact, it was her least favourite piece of Victorian literature. +He clearly states his opinion in the article ""Of Human Bondage"": he believes that television has enslaved and diminished an entire generation. + **Question marks, exclamation marks, and dashes go inside quotation marks when they are part of the quotation, and outside when they do not.** +Where is your copy of 'The Raven'? +'How cold is it outside?' my mother asked. + **Full stop** +The punctuation marks that signal the end of a sentence are the period, the question mark and the exclamation mark. You use the period, by far the most common of the end punctuation marks, to terminate a sentence that makes a statement. You may also use periods with imperative sentences that have no sense of urgency or excitement attached: +Without a doubt, Lady Sarah was much happier after her Marriage. +Turn right at the stop sign. +Bring me a cup of coffee and a jam tart. +When you want to express a sense of urgency or very strong emotion, you may end your imperative sentences and statements with an exclamation mark: +Look out below! +Leave this house at once! +I hate him! +Exclamation marks are, however, rare in formal writing. Use them sparingly, if at all. +You should use the question mark at the end of a direct question: +Who's on first? +Where is my flowered cape? +Be careful not to use a question mark at the end of an indirect question. Indirect questions are simply statements, and therefore end with a period: +I wonder who was chosen as Harvest King in the county fair. +She asked if she could play pinball. +The teacher asked who was chewing gum. +And finally. If you have a spellchecker – **use it!**" +728,Pussy Exercises,Tail_Gunner,How To,2015-10-27,2015-10-27,2022-01-04 08:37:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/pussy-exercises,A girl teaches her pussy to squeeze & and her man to flex.,"['Flexing Cock', 'Guide', 'How To', 'Snapping Pussy', 'Squeezing Pussy']",4.47,"She was too young for me, twenty-two ... twenty-three maybe. I had her by a good fifteen years. We never dated as such; we just fucked a lot. +It started when I had loaned her a truck to move her stuff from a college apartment into her 'first job' apartment. Her mom was a neighbor, a friend. When she returned the truck she brought along a couple of bottles of really good red wine. I had some shrimp gumbo left from a couple of days earlier. +We drank both bottle of the wine ... an Australian shiraz. I licked the last drops from her nipples ... or maybe her belly button: I don't remember for sure. I un-snapped her hip-hugger shorts, unzipped her. She lifted her hips, making easy work of sliding down the shorts, her panties. +""I've been exercising my pussy,"" she said. +""You been fuckin' a lot?"" I asked. +""No ... I been exercising."" +Sexual Benefits are the most exciting part about doing vaginal muscle exercises. Doing vaginal exercises will dramatically enhance and strengthen your love muscles. The most important muscle is your PC muscle. This is the muscle that contracts when you have an orgasms. If you make it stronger with simple exercises, you will have more powerful orgasms; orgasms so strong that you'll be left paralyzed on your bed. You'll not only have more powerful orgasms, but you'll have multiple orgasms. This is because your conditioned muscles will require greater blood flow. More blood means greater sensitivity, and thus more orgasms. +I had a finger deep inside her, looking for that special spot; was considering putting in a second finger. The squeeze started gently, grew in intensity. Her eyes were big as walnuts, she gave me a sexy, open-mouthed grin. +""You feel that little hug?"" she asked. +I did ... she was actually squeezing my fingers with her pussy! +""I told you."" she said. ""I been exercising."" +I was speechless, well, figuratively speaking. +""You can do that to my cock?"" I asked. +""Just you wait,"" she said. She squeezed me again, laughed a deep throaty laugh +Your man will also love your new, stronger love muscles. You will develop awesome control over your PC muscle, allowing you to clamp and clench his penis whenever you want. You can milk him until his eyes roll into the back of his head! You really can develop muscles this strong. One thing is for sure, if you want to improve your sex life tenfold, then strengthening your vaginal muscles in the number one way to do it. +I couldn't wait to be inside her ... had no interest in waiting. I eased the entire length of my cock into her wetness. Normally I wouldn't have done that. Foreplay is, to me, an art form. Something to be prolonged, enjoyed. Drive the lady wild: tease her, stroke her, lick her, taste her. Then fuck her. This time, however, I separated her legs, stroked the head of my cock up and down her open pussy, rolled it around on the distended clit. Then ... I pushed in. +The squeeze on my cock was there immediately. She stared at me with those big eyes, her mouth open. +""You feel that?"" she asked; contracted those muscles again. +""Oh, shit ... mother-fucker!"" I said. At least I thought I did. Most likely it was just an un-intelligible moan. +Slowly, I eased my cock back out until only the head was still inside her. The grip of her pussy was tight around me for the entire stroke. +She just looked at me, laughed. It was like she was playing with me, and she knew it. +""How do you do that?"" I asked. ""Who taught you, how did you learn that?"" +How to Do PC Muscle Exercises +Locate your PC muscle. The pubococcygeus muscle forms the floor of the pelvic cavity and stretches like a hammock from the pubic bone to the bottom of the spine. Pretend that you are urinating, then try to stop the flow with a quick muscle contraction. That muscle you just used to stop the flow from the bladder is your PC muscle. Try to keep your stomach and thigh muscles relaxed and focus only on the PC muscle. +Flex the PC muscle twenty times. Hold it for one or two seconds each time, then release. Repeat this three times a day, three to four times per week. Breathe normally during this exercise and try to avoid holding your breath. +Add ten really slow squeezes to each set. Take five seconds to slowly squeeze your PC as tight as you can. Now hold the tension for a full five seconds, if possible, and release gradually over the next five seconds. +We began fucking once a week, maybe every ten day. +It wasn't a plan; we never discussed it. It just happened. Sometimes at my place, sometimes in the front seat of my truck ... sometimes outdoors. She had a risqué streak re: doing-it in almost, but not quite, in public places ... the risk of getting caught. Once we fucked in a restaurant parking lot, in the triangle formed by a row of hedges, the truck door, and the truck itself. Her, all the time, holding her phone to her ear ... in make-believe conversation with her mother! +In my bed later, I asked. ""You don't have a boyfriend?"" +""I had one ... two actually ... at school."" +She leaned forward, resting her upper body weight on her extended arms, her palms flat on the bed on either side of my shoulders. 'Cowgirl' was her favorite position. I wasn't complaining. She leaned down, lowered a nipple to my mouth. +""They live somewhere else,"" she said. +She lifted her hips, clinched the walls of her pussy around my impaled cock; released the 'hug', slammed down hard against my pelvic bone. +""Anyway, I was getting tired of them."" +Over time she found a 'local' boy, a banker apprentice; then a second fellow, an engineer, she had known from high school, an ex-athlete. +""Somebody to go out dancing with, take to parties."" +""You fuck them?"" I asked, moving my mouth away from the warm wet spot between her legs. +""Of course,"" she said. ""But, they're still learning how."" +She caught her hands in my hair, pulled me back to that spot. +""Lick me,"" she said, reached with the fingers of one hand to spread herself wider. ""Merde! ... Oh, yes!"" My tongue back where she wanted it, needed. ""Oh, sweet Jesus ... you sure know how!"" +She seemed to not want to meet at her apartment. She never said; I just decided the didn't want one of her ""real"" boyfriends coming by, finding her with an ""older man"" in her bed, licking the taste of her, in her bed ... in her pussy. +Clench your PC muscle longer and more. After about two weeks, you should be able to stretch your PC muscle easier and for longer durations. Like any muscle in the body, it responds to stimulus and grows with use. Next, try upping the length of the flex and go for more flexes. +Instead of a one or two second hold, try to clench your PC muscle for five to seven seconds. Try twenty reps, three times a day, shooting for up to 50 reps, three times a day. Once you get the hang of it, you'll should learn how to clench your vaginal and anus sphincter muscle separately or at the same time. +After the a couple of months it became obvious that the squeezes were stronger, the grip of her pussy tighter on my cock. Lasted longer. +""You've been exercising your pussy,"" I told her, asked. +She grinned, squeezed, held me tight for ten-fifteen seconds. She moved herself up and down on my shaft, it buried deep inside her ... her riding me cow girl style. +""You like?"" +""Oh ... sweet Jesus!"" I managed; one hand on her hip, the other holding one of her marvelous tits. +She laughed. ""Oh, god ... I'm gonna cum!"" Her eyes closed, her mouth open, her breath coming in short, ragged gasps. +I felt the wetness of her running down onto pelvic, down the crease between my ass cheeks. +Do the PC tremble exercise. Start clenching your PC muscle very slowly. So slowly, in fact, that it takes you several minutes to work up to the point where you are fully clenching. Now that you are fully clenching, clench a little more and hold it there for 30 seconds, breathing slowly all the while. When you feel the burn, release and do 20 normal PC clenches. Perform this exercise at the end of your PC workouts for the day. +Lying Eyes ... The Eagles ... came out of my phone: her ring. +""I'm not wearing any panties,"" she said. +""Where are you?"" I asked, ""I'll be right there."" +""You can't ... I'm in a staff meeting."" +""Oh ... are you paying attention?"" +""No ... I'm doing the PC stutter exercise."" +""The what,"" I asked. +""Stutter exercise ... pretending my pussy is running up and down the stairs."" +""Oh, shit,"" I said. ""Get out of that fuckin' meeting. I'll pick you up in the parking lot. Ten minutes."" +""No, no! ... "" I didn't hear the rest. I was already headed to the door, fishing the keys out of my pocket. My cock already getting hard. +Do the PC stutter exercise. All this is flexing your PC muscle in increments. Tighten your PC a bit by bit. Start off gently — hold the PC there for a little bit — then a bit more then ""gentle."" When you have stuttered your PC all the way up to a full clench, don't release the muscle fully; work gently back down, first releasing a little bit, then a bit more, and so on. Imagine that you are running up and down a staircase with your PC muscle. +Don't overexercise. Combine any of the basic and intermediate exercises together, but only flex your PC muscles for 50 reps and 3 sets per day. Overstimulation can result in muscle fatigue. +Advanced Exercises +Sunday morning ...The Eagles came on again: Lying Eyes +""Did you see Sherry last night?"" she asked. She knew that there was fifty- something year old ... very un-grandmotherly! ... grandmother with whom I kept company sometimes. +""No,"" I said. ""Went to bed early with a good book."" +""What a waste,"" she said. ""I'll be there in thirty minutes. ... Oh, don't touch your cock until I get there. Anticipation will do him a world of good."" +""We're gonna workout together,"" she said, walking in the door. +Not: ""Good morning ... or ... did you sleep good ... or ... kiss my ass ( which I gladly would have done! ) ... Just: ""we're gonna workout together."" +""Oh, tell me."" +""I'm gonna show you,"" she said. She stuck her thumbs into the waist band of my running shorts, pushed them down. +My back against the head board, her sitting on my hard cock, her knees tucked underneath her ass, she squeezed me; held the 'little hug' for twenty or so seconds. +""Your turn,"" she said. ""I want to feel him move inside me."" +I thrust upward with my hips. +""No ... no!"" she said. ""Don't move your hips, just your cock. Make him move against my G-spot."" +I did. +""Oh, yes! ... Do that again. ... Je vais te baiser! ... Merde, Putain!"" +She made me do it until I couldn't. My poor cock would be sore for a week! +But, she made up for. She got on her back, wrapped her legs around my waist, dug her heels into my back. Every-time I pulled back, almost to the vermillion head, she clamped down, milking the semen from me; she emptied my balls ... left me helpless. Fucked me as I had never been fucked ... a world class fuck. The things that legends are made of. +She left me her panties, with instructions: "" ... stand in front of the mirror, drape these over your cock,"" she said. ""Do thirty 'cock-ups' ... three times a day. +Do PC muscle exercises with your partner. +Doing PC exercises while having sex can be productive and fun. The male partner gets erect, penetrates the female, and the pair take turns doing PC muscle exercises — he flexes, then she flexes, and so on. Just make sure that your partner is as keen on doing exercise as you are. +Do the PC squeeze with an erection. Massage your penis until you have an erection. Gradually massage your penis until you are at the brink of orgasm. Stop massaging immediately and start contracting your PC muscles. Once your erection begins to go flaccid, massage your penis until you are at the brink of orgasm again. Contract your PC muscles and repeat until your PC muscles are adequately worked. +If you accidentally orgasm during this exercise, your PC muscles probably aren't strong enough for advanced exercises yet. Focus on mastering the intermediate techniques before moving on to the advanced sets. +Lying Eyes: ""Did you do it?"" she asked. +""I tried,"" I told her. +""Oh? ... You tried?"" +""Ah ... it was working until I fired off a shot onto the mirror. ... Took me ten minute to cleans up the mess."" +She laughed. ""You have to work harder on control."" +""Fuck you,"" I said. +""No ... I going to Chicago for the week. ... I'll call when I get back. Work harder.'"" She hung up. +She texted me half way through the week: Do the blitz PC exercise the text read. +What the fuck is the ""blitz exercise?"" I texted back. +'Look it is up,' she answered. 'Don't you know about Google?' +This one is very hard to do, because it involves different clenching strengths and variable reps. Find yourself a spot where you'll feel comfortable for 10-20 minutes. Remember to breathe as you exercise. +Do 50 PC clenches as a warm-up. Next, squeeze your PC muscle as tightly as you can, holding for 30 seconds. +Then, perform 100 PC clenches without resting. Clench for two seconds, relax for two seconds, and so on. ... Next, try clenching your PC muscle as tightly as you can. Shoot for one minute of gut-wrenching clenching. +'Pick me up at the airport,' the text read. '7:40 PM ... straight to your house. ... have red wine, will share.' +'Are you wearing panties?' I texted back. +After a slight delay she answered, 'I was.' +The summer dress, when I watched her come through the gate, was cut just above the knees, a narrow belt at the waist. Nipples pushed out against the fabric. She wore, I knew, nothing else ... just the dress and a pair of sandals. Hugging me, she passed her left hand just under my chin. The smell of her waifed over my mouth, my nose; she slipped the panties into my right pocket. +She didn't let me touch her, once inside my house. +""I want to see,"" she said. ""Show me what you can do."" +I dropped the jeans into a puddle around my ankles, stepped out of them. I draped the panties across my already hard cock ... did a series of 'cock-ups.' +She clapped her hands together, laughed. ""Oh, goody,"" she said. She unbuckled the belt, dropped it to the floor. She lifted the hem of the dress up to her waist, showing off her trimmed, 'landing-strip' of blond pubic hair. Her left hand reached out and grasped me. +""Put you finger in me,"" she said, +I inserted a finger, then two ... found her G-spot. She squeezed, with unbelievable strength, them together. +""Je vais te baiser,"" she said. +... Rest for two minutes. ... Next, do 50 5-second clenches where you slowly relax at the end.

I haven't written for a while, but I'm glad you liked my previous letters. You seemed to really enjoy my thoughts on how I play with myself. I also got many nice responses to my little essay on penis sucking. I always love to hear your reactions to my letters, and your nice comments encourage me to write to you about other things. +This time, I thought I'd share with you my thoughts on pussy shaving. This may not be as interesting to you as the other subjects I've written about, because it isn't about sex _per se._ Let's face it, everyone is fascinated by sex, but pussy shaving is of less general interest. It can be a nice accompaniment to sex, though, so I felt you might be interested in a woman's thoughts on the subject. +First of all, pussy shaving isn't for everyone, and I don't suggest it should be. I've talked to women about this, and the majority didn't share my enthusiasm for it. In fact, there are probably more good reasons _against_ shaving than in favor of it. The most common reasons I've heard include: Too much bother, their men prefer them hairy, and the stubble is scratchy. All very good reasons, and I have no argument with any of them. In fact, I probably wouldn't do it myself if my circumstances weren't rather ... unusual. +Considering all the reasons not to shave, you might wonder why I do it. A perfectly reasonable question, and I'll try to answer it. As I mentioned, my situation is different from that of most women. I'll explain my reasons for shaving my pussy in light of those circumstances. +Most importantly, I am only with my lover for two two-week periods each year. It's only during those times that I shave my pussy. I let it go furry the rest of the time, because there is no sex and no reason the bother with it. No way I'd keep myself shaved just for me. +Those of you who have followed my little ... adventures know that everything I know about sex and sexuality comes from one person. He was my first and only. He likes my pussy bald, and what he likes, he gets. I _love_ pleasing him. Anything that makes him happy makes me happy. Pleasing him sexually _really_ makes me happy, because I love it at least as much as he does. After several months apart, our time together is ... intense. Having my pussy clean shaven pleases him, that pleases me, and our lovemaking is just that much better. +I didn't even develop any pubic hair until I was ... older, so I was completely, naturally bald when I had my first sexual experience. I mean like a cue ball. Even after I started gowing some hair, we still preferred me bald, so we kept it that way. After all, when we're together, everything about me, including my pussy, belongs to my lover. He can do with it as he pleases. He likes it bald, that turns him on, and I _love_ what happens when he's turned on. He says he loves the look and feel of a totally bald pussy. It makes the oral sex and lovemaking better for him, and that makes it better for me. Talk about a win-win situation! +Shaving me is a part of our lovemaking. I always show up for our first meeting freshly shaven, but he takes care of it after that. Shaving me once a day is a very intimate and loving thing for us to share. It _always_ leads to my freshly shaved pussy getting thoroughly kissed, and that gives me an orgasm or two to get us started. We end up in bed, and what can be better than that? I guess you could say that shaving my pubic hair is part of our foreplay. +I'm lucky. I don't have much pubic hair, and what I have is soft and easy to shave. When I'm shaved, it's like I've never had any hair at all. Can't see or feel any trace. Some women have told me that the best shaving they can do results in something like Robert DiNero's chin in those gangster movies. I think being fully bearded would be better than a five o'clock shadow. +How much to shave? Well, that's totally a matter of personal preference. My lover likes me _completely_ bald. Like a cue ball. He says he likes to kiss a smooth, hairless mound. I like it kissed, too, so that's what he gets. He tells me likes the ""clam"" look. Even when I'm standing with my legs together, he can see my cleft instead of just hair. I think he enjoys the ""little girl"" look. I've seen some women who wear those thong bikinis leave a strip of hair up on the mound. I've even seem pictures of women who shave their pubic hair into a heart shape, and that's kind of cute. Personally, I go all the way. My lover likes me with no trace of hair below the neck. +The appearance is important, but it's the removal of the hair down in the delicate parts on the outer lips of the pussy that my lover likes. He loves the feel my soft, totally smooth labia on his lips and tongue. Anything that encourages him to kiss my pussy is okay with me. He says that smoothness is much nicer for his penis than rough hair, too. I've actually never had sex with hair on my pussy. As soon as I developed some, we started shaving it. I don't think I'd feel quite as much if I was hairy down there. After all, there's no feeling in hair. +Should someone who has never shaved her pussy try it? It's totally up to the individual, but _why not?_ It's a great way to spice up your sex life. Ladies, did you ever get a radically different hairstyle? Did you notice the effect on your man? Many women have told me that a drastically different hairstyle really turns on their men. Like he's got a new woman. Well, I think a shaved pussy would have a similar effect. Probably even more dramatic. +Men, wouldn't you like to experience the feel of a totally smooth pussy on your mouth and penis? Ladies, wouldn't you enjoy your man slavering over your newly bald pussy? Sure you would. It's one of the few things I can think of that can't possibly hurt anything and might turn out to be great for you both. You just need to be a little adventuresome. +For a man, dropping a little hint at an intimate moment might arouse her interest. Something like, ""I'd love to know what you feel like there if you didn't have any hair."" Who knows, she might be intrigued by the idea. For a lady, just ask him if he ever wondered what you would look and feel like with a bald pussy. Even better, do it yourself and surprise him. I'll _guarantee_ he'll like it. +Okay, let's say you're feeling adventuresome and a little naughty and want to try it. I'm going to save you a lot of trouble, discomfort, and frustration by telling you exactly how to go about it. My lover and I have experimented a lot, so I know all the ""dos"" and ""don'ts."" +The first ""don't"" is using a depilatory like Nair. The main ingredient in that stuff is potassium hydroxide (lye), and it dissolves hair. It has a very strongly alkaline pH, and it will cause chemical burns on skin. It may be okay for tougher skin like on the legs, but don't get that stuff anywhere near a sensitive pussy. +Okay, let's assume you're starting with a full bush of pubic hair and want to be just as bald as I am, like a baby. First, use scissors to cut the hair short, about 1/4 inch long. Not so short that you cut yourself, but it's almost impossible to shave really long hair. Dull scissors will pull and irritate, so they should be sharp. Be very careful down on the lips. A man is very useful here. +Now your hair is short, and you can begin shaving. Wash well with soap and warm water to soften the hair, then apply some shave cream to keep it moist and soft while you shave. Get two or three new disposable razors or fresh blades for your razor. Change to a new razor or blade at the first sign of pulling.This is very important the first time you shave. Shave the mound area first, because this is the easiest and is good practice for the more difficult parts. Shave it in all directions, until you're smooth as a baby's bottom. Don't press hard, because this will cause irritation. Don't forget to change blades. +Shaving the soft lips is more difficult, but take your time and you'll get great results. Again, a man is handy here. You have to pull up on the labia with your fingers to stretch them a little, then shave downwards. Then pull down, and shave upwards. Don't press, because you'll get razor burns and irritation. The little notch right at the top of the cleft is difficult to get, but you can do it if you're patient. A tiny bit of hair left there really doesn't matter anyway. +Rinse, pat dry, sooth with some lotion, and you have a nicely bald pussy ready for some loving attention. +That's how to get yourself smooth the first time. Now, how to keep it that way. The day after you shave, you'll feel some stubble just like after shaving your legs. My pubic hair grows fast enough that I need daily shaving to be baby smooth. The choice is, keep it smooth or let it grow back out? +The first shaving is quite a procedure, but keeping a smooth pussy is much easier. You've done all the hard work, why not keep it smooth for a while? Most women that I've talked to who shave do it periodically, keep it smooth for a while, then let it grow back. Some, though, keep themselves smooth all the time. If you've gone to all the trouble of getting smooth, a little daily attention will keep it that way. I'd encourage you to keep it smooth for a while. Shaving gets easier, and the results get even better. +If you use a blade, always use a fresh blade or disposable razor. Never shave with a dull blade. You might get away with using a blade many times on your legs, but a pussy is too delicate. You can only get smooth without irritation if you use a new blade. It only takes about two minutes a day to keep a smooth pussy, and you can even do it in the shower. A man will _always_ volunteer to help, though. +For the ultimate in keeping a smooth pussy, use my method. No blades except for the first shaving of the muff. I use an electric shaver that's designed to be used with shave cream. They're called Wet 'n Dry, or something like that. The vast majority of electric shavers are meant to be used dry. DON'T use them. They don't work very well. Mine is a Remington, and I believe Norelco also makes one. It cost about forty dollars, and I think it's the best investment I ever made. They're cordless and rechargable, so you can use them in the shower without worrying about getting shocked. Lather up just as you would using a blade, and you get a perfect shave. Closer than a blade, no nicks, and no razor irritation. Makes a pussy as smooth as a baby's bottom. The razor also produces a nice vibrating tingle when the side is gently pressed against the clitoris. _DON'T try this with any shaver that isn't cordless and specifically made to use with water and shave cream._ You may have to do some shopping to find the right shaver, but it's well worth the effort. +Well, that's Diane's course in Pussy Shaving 101. If you follow my guidelines, there will be a minimum amount of problems and the best possible results. You might even find it adds a new dimension of pleasure to your love life. Anything that does that is definitely worth a little effort, isn't it? Well, it certainly is for me. +______________ + _Rather than votes, I'd love to have your comments on this.

Someone who will make their pussy shout in glee and cause those convulsions that only happens when they use their trusty vibe. If a woman like this should stumble into your arms, here are some ways that _you_ can help her. You can turn her into the sexy vixen you want her to be. +Media portrays some women as hot, raring to go, and able to have effortless orgasms. And, as women, we think that we should be like that. However, there are more women with difficulty in achieving that orgasm than those that actually have one. +Let's face it, books, films and - above all - teen and women's magazines paint a very different picture in which today's females are hot, raring to go and effortlessly orgasmic. +If your lover is considered ""mature,"" all the better. A woman is more apt to have an orgasm as she matures than if she were a ripe virgin, fresh for plucking. Before you get started, stock up on the goodies: a gentle lubricant, candles, soft music (but turn the television off), and a vibrator. +If she hasn't already done so, encourage her to masturbate when she is alone. She will find out what makes her have ""that"" feeling. She can discover what pleases her and what turns her off. Be the secure person, go out and buy her a vibrator. She does need to be alone to fully appreciate the rewards of masturbating, and if she is, _you_ will reap the benefits ten-fold. +Include her vibe in your sexual play if you have to, but stimulate her clitoris. As the penis is important to a man, the clitoris is important to a woman. A vibe can be her best friend; you should know that nothing is closer than a woman and her best friend. +A woman's brain is the sexual center of her body. To really turn a woman on, it is important to stimulate her brain first. This includes: love, romance, cuddling, and a stress-free environment. These things can turn her on just as much as your caresses and fevered kisses. If your partner has children, arrange to send them to a relative. If she has a stressful day, pamper her. +For goodness sakes, this is not a sprint. Treat her body like a marathon. Fast might get _you_ to the finish line quicker, but you don't want to leave your partner hanging do you? Let her know you treasure her body; she will be yours. +You know those things on her chest? Those are called breasts. They have nipples. Caress them. Kiss them. If she likes, be rough with them. They are more than pretty things to look at; they can be the stimulant to reach an orgasm. +Two words for you: Oral Sex. Women love it too. Caress her pussy as you want done to your cock/pussy. Don't rush it. A pussy is like an orchestra; all the instruments need to make sure they are stroking all the right chords. Don't get greedy. Let this be all about her. Don't wonder when she will turn the tables and pleasure you. Let her sit or lay back and enjoy it. +Your woman most likely understands what it takes to get her off. She just knows. Don't question it. She has turned to her ""best friend"" and knows what pushes her buttons. Ask her. Do it to her. Enjoy it. +Do you ever rebuff her when she takes the initiative? Don't. Encourage her to decide your agenda. Encourage her to make the first move. This will give her confidence in herself and free up her mind from worries. This might just be the push she needs to have that all important orgasm. A confident woman is an orgasmic woman. +This ""never"" happens, but if you should reach your climax before she does, find the energy to continue kissing her and simulating her so that she can climax too. Don't be selfish. It is all about her at this point. +You may not be a big talker, but there is one place where you do need to talk -- in bed. Compliment her. Tell her she is beautiful. Marvelous. Sexy. Lavish praises on her. She is not looking for long, detailed conversations about your day, but a few choice words can send her right over the edge. +A woman usually does not climax thorough penetration alone. If she has climaxed this way, chances are that her clitoris was massaged in the process. Allow her to fully enjoy this experience without worrying about mundane daily things. +These are just suggestions for helping her to have that orgasm.

We write erotica. +I am well aware of the longer plotted stories, but for most of the stories, the dialogue stays fairly simple. That being said, 'He said, She said' can get frustrating and unsexy in shorter stories, and mind-numbingly tedious in the longer stories. Unlike an obnoxious character, or a single confusing line, dialogue rarely goes away. The way you present your dialogue can be the difference between a fun sexy story and a migraine-inducing nightmare. +And because I like to ramble, here; in no particular order, are some tips to help you achieve conversation Nirvana. +BREAK IT UP +Just like a 500 word paragraph can strain the eyes, too much dialogue in one chunk can strain a reader. Humans operate better if information comes in chunks. Most information in our society is designed to be read and processed in chunks. Social Security Numbers, telephone numbers, license plate numbers, bullet points, I could go on and on. And dialogue in your stories should be broken up more then the Hershey's bar I just found under my mattress. +Do not misunderstand me and think that I am telling you to make your sentences shorter. You don't need to have your characters grunt and point like cave(wo)men. But a few breaks can make it easier on the eye and brain. Here are two examples of the same woman speaking. +\--- +""I don't know Dan. I mean, I've liked you since we were kids, but aren't you worried about your friend Harold? I know that Harold and I broke up, but it might still be touchy for him. If we go any further, I don't know if I'll be able to stop."" +- +Samantha halted abruptly and pushed Dan away from her. ""I don't know Dan."" She panted, her round white breasts heaving at the top of her lace bra. ""I mean, I've liked you since we were kids, but aren't you worried about your friend, Harold?"" Dan winced slightly, looking at Samantha with a wounded expression. +Samantha bit her lip. ""I know that Harold and I broke up, but it might still be touchy for him. If we go any further, I don't know if I'll be able to stop."" +\--- +Break up the conversation for 'reaction shots'. The dialogue takes a little longer to get out, but you're telling the story as you do so. The words are more integrated with the story, you can really sense them moving and thinking as they speak. Break up into more then one paragraph if you have to. Just remember that readers will absorb information better if it is in bite-sized chunks. +AH-AH! ONE AT A TIME DAMMIT! +This is a very simple rule that is broken quite often. It isn't a matter of artistry or skill, it's just a no-no. +Do not (I repeat) DO NOT, let two characters have dialogue within the same paragraph. This is on the same level as forgetting the quotation marks as far as rules in dialogue. It looks sloppy, it's easy to forget who's speaking, and it lends to bigger messier paragraphs. +So, one at a time. +HE SAID, SHE SAID, THE DANGER OF ATTRIBUTIVES +Often, stories struggle with a bad case of the 'he-said-she-said's' and those who try to avoid that can come down with 'pontificate-itis'. +We've all read (or perhaps written) a story where the dialogue never shifts from two or three well-worn attributives. Phrases like; He said, she said, John said, Martha said, etc. When you read a story like this, it can be a major annoyance. However, 'pontificate-itis' is just as obnoxious. +The author realizes that s/he uses 'he said' too often and tries to come up with ever more articulate phrases to convey meaning. Like; She pontificated, he rhapsodized, Martha babbled, John divulged, etc. Needless to say, this can border on ridiculous. +Of course there are a couple of easy fixes. Many of these phrases work in certain places; asked, questioned, whispered, shouted, cried, gasped, and so on. (those are some of my favorites.) If you make sure that the attributive matches the situation, you can have some variety without getting absurd. +Another loophole that I make generous use of. You don't even have to specifically say 'he said' or the equivalent. Look at this example. +\--- +Martha sat down and combed her reddish hair, wincing at the tangles. ""I don't know why we have to go to this stupid charity thing!"" +\--- +I did not say 'she said', or 'Martha said' or any equivalent. If you put a brief mention of your character before writing a quote, people know that it is the person you just wrote about that is supposed to be speaking. +Finally, there is nothing wrong with using 'said' in moderation. +GIVE YOUR AUDIENCE A LITTLE CREDIT +This tip ties back to the last one, but often, you can get away with not having to write anything at all before launching into dialogue. +Let's have an example of a couple named Martha and Stewart. Let's say that they are in bed, and Stewart is giving Martha oral sex. You have already set this up in a former paragraph. +\--- +""Oh God! Oh God that feels AMAZING!"" +\--- +You don't have to add a single word to that, because no one reading that sentence will think that Stewart is saying that. If it is obvious who is speaking, you don't have to worry about wearing out any of your attributives. +CAPS LOCK (yay, irony!) +I will say this once. I will not say it again. +If you ever use all caps to describe an orgasm... I will hunt you down. +I hope this was informative and helpful! +Kisses and Spanks, +\--Cruel +P.S. I mean it.

Yes, true life is boring sometimes, and erotic fiction is there for escapism, but a few touches of reality here and there couldn’t hurt. +A number of authors (including myself) are guilty of filling their stories with completely unbelievable tripe, creating unrealistic situations and characters to easily amuse the reader. This is the difference between a good erotic story and a plain old sex story. +Certainly some story categories are meant to be unrealistic, such as the dream category and the non-human category. However small snippets of real life can be spliced into these over-the-top stories. Realism can more effectively engage your reader, as it provides a point of association and can make them feel that your characters could be someone they know. +Here are some general tips and suggestions for adding realism: + **1.** Not every guy is a well hung stud who can go on for hours. If you want to have your male characters be sexual dynamos, at least give them an average sized penis (there is a reason they use the word average) so that he is not a super-exceptional lover, just a good one. The percentage of stories that have guys with penises over 7” could mislead some readers into thinking that they are inadequate. This links to point two. + **2.** Not all girls are perfect 10’s madly craving the aforementioned studs. Most women don’t like large penises, as it feels quite uncomfortable. Bigger women could certainly have a desire for bigger penises, but that’s a matter of proportion. Also, try to avoid making all your women perfect looking and for that matter, don’t make them all the same. E.g. not all guys (or girls) like big-busted women. + **3.** Despite hormonal issues, sex is not the only thing that people think about. Even if sexual tension is not alleviated by some sexual act, periods of arousal pass, and this can be inserted into your story to create suspense, or sexual tension/frustration. E.g. your characters could be getting heated up then they could be interrupted and have to postpone their engagement. + **4.** If it helps, base some of your characters on yourself or people you know (with names changed of course) in order to have a “real” personality or even physical profile. If you wish to create a fantasy person, give them some minor flaws; e.g. a crooked nose, moles, slightly bad teeth, a disproportioned body; so that your reader can more readily associate with the characters. + **5.** Aside from just making your characters more real, you could spend more time developing them and build up to a sexual encounter or have them dotted throughout the story. If your reader develops a rapport with character, s/he will enjoy their sexual encounters more. + **6.** Things don’t have to always work out perfectly in the end. Life isn’t fair, so if you create scenarios in which your main character does not triumph, readers can, again, more readily associate with their own lives. A good example is the rape category, as men (or women) that are driven to rape ordinarily do so out of sexual frustration; maybe they asked a girl out, and she said no. It has realism and fantasy combined, as long as you remember that women (or men) don’t usually enjoy being raped. + **7.** Finally, where possible (and I know it’s difficult) try to have an aftermath, try to continue your story beyond the sexual encounters. Write your stories as a series if it helps, so you can include more sexual encounters, and continue to develop your characters and not end everything with sex." +733,Reaching Sex God Status,Sexuallyfree,How To,2010-10-20,2010-10-20,2022-01-04 08:37:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/reaching-sex-god-status,The Ultimate of Sexual Experience from my perspective.,"['Blow Job', 'Dick', 'Foreplay', 'Kissing', 'Romance']",4.07,"Reaching "" Sex God "" Status from this Woman's Mature Perspective +Its' In His Kiss +There's nobody that loves a good kiss then I. It's is definitely the prelude for good things to come and the ultimate in foreplay. Stolen kisses when you least expect them are fun to. They take you off guard. So, what are the ingredients in a good kiss for me from a man.. Well, preparation is a key factor. Breath must be fresh. Lips should be moist. Without those things, a kiss could be spoiled. A good kisser is always prepared. He waits for the right moment and the right atmosphere. He moves closer and entices me. He may whisper in my ear a sweet something. He plays and teases. He looks tenderly in my eyes and slowly inches closer to my lips. He then freezes and looks tenderly and longingly in my eyes. He waits till I look back at him. He then places his lips on mine. His kiss is slow in the beginning or a series of quick kisses. He builds a tempo and a rhythm then intensifies it. He gets me warm and begins the dance. He places both hands on my face tenderly and I'm totally locked into him. He then parts my lips and wiggles his tongue into my mouth. He plays with my tongue and sucks it. I return in kind. The temperature turns from warm to hot. Both of our bodies are as close as can be. He curls my toes and sends tingles down my body. He slowly removes his tongue and hopefully bites my lip. He moves his face away but still holds me tightly in his arms. We savor the intimacy and enjoy the closeness. No words are spoken. There's no need for them. +Moving Intimacy On To The Next Level- It's My Turn To Take The Lead +So, I wake up this next morning with his kiss still lingering on my lips. I'm hoping to get a little inspiration and guidance for what will be my next move. It's my favorite time of day to do so. Yes,my mind wondered to areas that no angel would ever dare to tread. It wasn't heavenly thoughts but thoughts of a different kind this morning. Want to know what I was thinking of? +I was daydreaming of his penis. I've always been quite fascinated with this particular body part. Some would called me a dick worshiper or a penis pleaser. I'll admit it. Now, mind you, it's not the most beautiful of body parts however some men sport a very pleasing package. All dicks are not the same and come in wide variety of looks and sizes. Of course, the first difference is size and girth. Next is the look of the head. That's my favorite part. Then, there's the size and shape of the balls. Some men's balls are long and saggy. Other men's are held together in a nice, tight little package. Those are my favorite kind. I wonder what his looks like? +What has always fascinated me so was the erection of the penis. It's like a magic bean that keeps on growing. It goes from soft to the touch to hard and firm in a matter of minutes, or seconds, depending on how excited the man is. I love the feel of an erection in my hands. Although, I like a hands on experience, I also enjoy it in my mouth. I'm a licker. I've always have been. I like to lick it like an ice cream cone. I can't deep throat though. I have a terrible gag reflex that can turn a situation from sexy to disgusting in a matter of minutes. I can, however, have it in my mouth and suck it for awhile. I've never had any man come in my mouth but I think I could handle that now if he wants that. I find that as we mature we are more open to new experiences. I've learned mainly by research that you can cradle a mans balls and even suck on them if you're gentle. I've always was shy around that area because I was afraid in my wild abandonment and eagerness that I would hurt the man. Now, through lots of research and video watching, I know how to handle that area. I've also learned a few tricks as well to add to my repertoire. The most fascinating for me is the look in a man's face as you give him this pleasing treat. I like to watch the wide range of emotions that play out on his face. I like to know that what I'm doing is turning him on. That's the fun part of the experience. I also don't mind watching him pleasing himself. It's a great learning tool. Well, that experience can be for a futute time. Right now, I know what I plan on doing. +Yes, I am a woman who loves to give head and admires a man's dick. Oh, yes, I will be the aggressor here. It's my turn to give. +The Ultimate of Intimacy For Me +Any guy can take his dick and stick it inside my pussy. He can gyrate, pulsate and drive inside of me till he reaches his climax and then slip out. That's just the mechanics of a no frills fuck. That's not what I'm interested in though. +A real man though takes his time with this woman. He caresses me, looks longingly into my eyes, kisses my mouth sweetly and nibbles me in places that drive me wild. He plays my body like a classical instrument and drinks me in like a fine wine. He makes me tremble and coo. He's plays the role of pleaser and does whatever gives me the most pleasure. I am his only focus. It's not about him. It's all about me. He circles my nipples with the tip of his tongue until erect. He takes each of my breasts in his mouth and lingers there. He transcends down my body ever so slowly taking time to lick each part until her reaches my womanhood. Once he reaches that tunnel, he touches gently, explores me, tastes my sweetness, licks me and slowly makes me groan until the groan becomes a scream. He makes sure I am totally turned on and then,only then, does he enter me. He moves inside me seeking out my most private spot where pleasure and release is felt. He builds a rhythm. He starts slowly and then quickens the tempo. He looks at me lovingly and kisses where he can. He waits for the signs of my coming and then drives me at full force until I reach orgasm. He then knows then that he can release and fill me up with his sweet juices.He remains inside of me till both of our hearts beat normally again. He slowly withdraws himself and hold me in his arms until we both are replete. +If you can make love to me just like that, then, you know that you've reached ""Sex God"" title in my book.

Those of you who have read my stories will have noticed the themes that run through them; that of huge cocks/dildos etc with the victims forced to experience multiple orgasms against their will during protracted fucking with them. +Given that these fantasies turn me on the idea of a fucking machine with a huge dildo figures strongly in my stories. Many fantasies have to remain just that but some we would love to do for real. +This one is a wonderful story and its all the better for being absolutely true. Since early on in our relationship we have shared our fantasies. My partner's stories have developed over time from what were almost exclusively lesbian content to a lot of incest/daddy sex fantasies. +Our fantasies are not an exact fit together. The idea of Daddy's fucking their daughters doesn't do anything for me in itself but I can go with it easily enough and merge her fantasies with those of my own. The story 'Martha's Ransom' was written with her in mind with several of her important themes incorporated. +Usually for her she is the seducing daughter rather than victim of rapacious father but she can go with that idea too. +So this is our actual real-life story. Throughout our relationship I have been obsessed with having her fucked by big things. Initially I bought a Doc Johnson dildo with vibrator which was large but not massive, about six inches around. +We then tried using bigger things, cucumbers and bottles etc. We had one exceptional time with an aubergine which she had the most intense orgasm on. +What we seemed to discover was that she can fairly easily accommodate something up to 7.5 inches in girth but anything wider than that would not fit. However, when I saw a Bam realistic dildo in our local sex shop about 18 months ago I just had to buy it in the vague hope that she might be able to 'work up to it' over time. +She did put it to her pussy but felt that it would be too large for her and it went in the drawer to gather dust. Last Christmas I bought her a more suitably sized dildo, a Ty Fox realistic which is dead on 7.5 inches around, right about her limit. +We have used this on many occasions although at times she has struggled to relax enough to take it. +During the spring I had some leave and decided to try to construct a fucking machine to fix the dildo onto. It was actually easier than I expected. +The mechanism to produce a thrusting motion is very simple. What I used was a 12volt windscreen wiper motor from a scrap yard which I bolted to a wooden bracket. +I bought a length of chrome plated steel tube (which was sold as a pack to make a bathroom towel rail). This came with two chrome plated steel holders which are designed to be screwed to the wall. These are basically short lengths of thicker diameter tube with holes drilled through them, through which the towel rail passes. +I screwed them to a 12 inch length of wood, passed the towel rail through them and greased it. They then act as bushes for the rail, allowing it to slide back and forth through them. +Using more wood I connected the bracket on which the motor is mounted to the one on which the rail is mounted. All that remained was to fix a short length of metal bracket to the spindle of the wiper motor. The length depends on the depth of stroke required. +I had used a bracket with holes drilled at approximately half inch intervals in case I needed to make it adjustable but I set it to give a maximum travel of 3.5 inches and that seems to be pretty much ideal. Any longer travel and it would fall out on the backstroke. +The rotation of the motor is translated into a back and forth movement via a length of metal bracket (all available from your local DIY shop). This is bolted to the end of the bracket that's fixed to the motor spindle and at the other end to a bolt through the towel rail. +I hammered a short length of metal with a thread on the end into the end of the rail so that I could screw something to the end of it that I could attach the dildo to. +Finally I bought some heavy duty two way toggle switches, wire and fuses and connected it all up to a 12 volt motorcycle battery. The whole mechanism I then fitted inside a wooden box which is about 14 inches long, 12 inches high and 8 inches wide. With some experimentation I also added a 4 foot length of wood which is detachable for storage. +This has the dual purpose of steadying the machine from moving about too much especially when it's used on a soft surface like the bed. It is also used as a spreader bar to hold her legs wide apart. +So there it is; a fucking machine for under £30. The way the motor is switched allows the two-way toggle switch to operate it in 'off'; 'slow' and 'fast' speeds. The speeds are not adjustable but in practise its 50 rpm slow and 100 rpm fast are really all you need. +I had built the machine without my girlfriend's knowledge but started telling her fantasies about them before showing it to her. She felt a bit self conscious about it but agreed to give it a go. +She first inserted the well lubricated dildo and then we attached it to the end of the rod. It is important to start with the rod at maximum extension, insert the dildo as far as comfortable so that the first stroke is a retraction. This ensures the penetration is not going to be too deep, particularly important if the 'victim' is tied down! +The initial trial was done at slow speed with a vibe on her clit till she came. The second time I asked if I could tie her down and video her getting fucked with it which she was happy to do. +I had her blindfolded, spread eagled to the bed with our bondage straps, and having got her worked up with my tongue, inserted the Ty Fox dildo into her freshly shaven pussy and attached it to the fucking machine. +I started videoing and switched the machine on, initially on 'slow' but after a couple of minutes to 'fast'. At that point she started moaning loudly with every thrust of that big rubber cock and even more so when I applied a vibe to her clit. +It took about ten minutes in all before she came, moaning loudly as she did. The dildo is fixed to the rod via the vacu-lock arrangement and it came off the end of the rod with all her thrashing about! +Wonderful as this has been what happened last night is the best yet. We were in bed and she wanted me to fuck her with the Ty Fox dildo and she seemed to struggle initially to take it. +Having managed it I fucked her with it for a while and we were talking about what it would be like if she had the Bam dildo inside her and she offered to try it. +I was all for it but knew she would not be able to take it; I just thought it would be nice to see her try and that it might help to prepare her by gradually stretching her pussy bit by bit. +What actually happened shocked me completely, I still can hardly believe it; she just took it, slowly but surely she pushed it inside herself till she had about six inches of it inside her! +It was incredible, not least because it is an entire inch larger in circumference and she took it as if it was barely any larger at all. She fucked herself with it for awhile but didn't come on it that time. +I had been planning to use the Ty Fox dildo for what happened, merging her and my fantasies together as she got fucked with the fucking machine but when she managed to take the Bam dildo it we decided to use that one. +We spent plenty of time getting her turned on, using the Ty Fox to pave the way before she inserted the Bam dildo again. I quickly strapped her to the bed and attached the dildo to the fucking machine and set it in motion, initially on 'slow' setting. +I taped the small bullet vibe onto her clitty and began whispering in her ear. ""So my pretty little girl, tell me, who is fucking you?"" +""You Daddy"" she replied. +""That's right baby; it's your Daddy isn't it?

Yet incest is something that is forbidden, not spoken about, and if nobody tells you what it is really all about then how on earth would you go about writing it if you have no experience of your own to draw upon. Well folks, this is where somebody with experience steps in and tells you how to bring your fictional stories closer to the reality. I have such a life experience, and have spoken to many other people who have also been involved with their family members. Using my knowledge, I will reveal a hidden world to you. Some of the following essay will fascinate you, might even give you food for thought with your stories. This is all based upon anecdotal evidence, so skeptics may take or leave whatever I have to say herein, because I am well aware that I am on the whole an exception to the rule. +Rather than give you a bunch of dos and don'ts to remember and subsequently use, I believe that it is important that you understand why certain ideas don't work where others do. Without understanding why, you are doomed to repeat the same errors in your stories again and again. +Maybe we had first better look at the difference between an erotic story and a piece of written porn. Many people do not understand the difference between the two, and I can tell you that I love to read erotic fiction, but get bored easily with porn. A pornographic story is merely a graphic explanation of the act of sex; no emotions are exhibited, just sexual arousal of the characters. There is usually little explanation as to why they are having sex in the first place, and little character development. On the other hand an erotic story will at the bare minimum give the characters the opportunity to interact before jumping into bed with each other. The characters feelings are shown, and it becomes more exciting than the pornographic story in which we only read the sex. By far the most powerful sexual organ us human beings possess is our minds, and the interaction of two fictional minds is a far more interesting playing field than whatever those two characters are doing with their genitals. This can be said for any two characters, they obviously don't have to be related. +Bearing in mind these definitions, I think that you will agree with me that writing incest porn is not the best idea, as it cannot possibly do justice to the act. Does it not make more sense that there should be some kind of buildup or at least an explanation as to how they ended up together in the first place? Remember that these two people are family; barriers as strong as the incest taboo do not disappear overnight. Sometimes it can take years for the barrier to totally dissolve. +Before I describe the issues that incestuous people have to face, I would like to share with you a general model of the dissolving of the incest taboo. This model only works for incest between consenting adults; child molestation and rape are horrible and I don't want to even think about them. I base this model on everyone I've ever spoken to who had had an incestuous relationship, because a lot of the people I spoke to went through the following stages: +1\. Attraction – This first stage is when the two people realize that they have the potential to develop a connection other than the family bond and friendship which is already established. At this point most people become confused by the revelation, and rapidly enter stage two; the extremely open minded ones may skip to stage three. +2\. Denial – This stage occurs when the person does not want to face even the possibility of something incestuous. They may wish to avoid contact with the other family member, or they might just pretend that nothing is happening and go along as normal. Some people remain in this stage forever, and for others they proceed to stage three. +3\. Curiosity – At this point the person has made peace with the fantasy aspect of things, and becomes curious. Many people remain in this stage, and for them it becomes a fantasy that they enjoy sharing with like minded people online. This goes a long way to explaining the vast numbers of incest stories here and in other places. Some other people skip straight to this step because incest is something that they are curious about but they have never been interested in a family member themselves. It is also worth noting that this is the stage where the interaction between the two people alters the most, because they are in the process of falling in love. If this stage doesn't happen, then one cannot proceed to stage four. +4\. Analysis – This stage is where somebody is seriously considering entering an incestuous relationship. It is here that somebody weighs up the pros and cons of such a union, thinks seriously about how it will impact their family relationship (and it will, there is no getting out of that), and finally makes the decision to go ahead or not. +5\. Decision – At this point, both people have made a conscious decision that they want to become a couple... so they do. +If you wish to make your story a 'first time' story then this model may be enough for you, but if you wish to write about an ongoing relationship, while you still may need to bear that all in mind, you will also need to know what happens after the line has been crossed. It depends on many things, mostly upon the quality time spent in stage four. Somebody who has not thought things through properly might be lucky and still feel okay about everything later; others who didn't might find themselves regretting it. If you choose to write about the characters ending the relationship, remember that things will never be the same again. They may remain friends and part on good terms, but they cannot go back to being ordinary relatives, because crossing the line is rather permanent, hence the importance of stage four. +Also take into consideration the personalities of your characters, which will directly impact how they are likely to react to every situation, and how they are likely to feel. However, please don't transform your characters into cartoons who are just begging for incestuous encounters because it's 'hot'. Firstly it's lazy, and secondly it doesn't allow those characters to develop beyond being mere lustful bimbos and studs. Incest doesn't work that way, and turning the whole thing into a kink moves your whole story away from being realistic, and I assume that if you are reading this essay, you wish to write your incest stories realistically. +Now as promised, I will talk you through each of the major issues that incestuous people have to face and work through. It is important to note that these will not apply to every couple, but every point has relevance to some people: +\-- Not normal – It is typical for people who are involved in incest to feel that they are in some way abnormal. This fear comes directly from the incest taboo itself, the assumption that nobody can feel anything more than platonic love for their relatives unless they are mad. This assumption goes hand in hand with the taboo, reinforcing it, and it causes the person to question their own sanity. The only way that people get through this stage is to realize that the taboo itself is a lot stronger than it ever needs to be. Only then can they realize that they are not freaks. +\-- Breeding – This is a non-issue for people who have either had all of the children that they are ever going to have, are unable to have kids, or who choose not to. However, most people at some point do want kids, and this can be a potentially HUGE issue. Romantic though the idea might be, the erotic fantasy of having children via incest would NOT be good in reality, as a matter of fact it is downright risky and foolish (in my personal opinion of course). The couple has a few options available to them if they want children: breaking up and finding separate partners, not breaking up but finding separate partners to have children with, deciding not the have children after all. +\-- Power difference – This can be a problem for some people, if one person potentially has some form of authority over the other. This issue is especially prevalent for parent/offspring couples, but exists to a lesser degree to any relationship that involves an age gap greater than 15 years. It is a good idea if both people are on equal footing BEFORE crossing the line. Society fails to realize that parental authority gives way to friendship as a natural process, once somebody has learned everything that they need to from their parents, and has become a friend to them, they are on equal footing to them by definition. At this point the doors of possibility are open. +\-- Strain of secrecy – Believe it or not, constant secret keeping CAN take its toll, especially if you live in a family unit where you must keep the secret from other members of the household. Is it worth all the secrecy? Depends on the people and the quality of the relationship. Add this to 'is it normal' and you have quite a complicated mental situation. This is best eased by talking to other like minded people online, people who have been here before and know what it's like. +I already mentioned that deciding to sleep with a family member is crossing a very definite line, and that doing so impacts the entire relationship. This is something that you must be aware of when writing, because things can never be the same again for the characters. Family love and romantic love are two very separate things, but contrary to popular belief, but the roles of relative and lover do not necessarily have to be in direct conflict. I'm guessing that most people's fear comes from the assumption that because family love is by definition unconditional, that romantic love is incompatible because it weakens or breaks this bond. Some people even assume that the unconditional family love gets used in a coercive way in order to establish a stable romantic bond... again this is not how things work, at least not with LEGITIMATE relationships. While it is true that if the relationship fails then things can never go back to how they were before it began, it certainly doesn't mean that the family bond is destroyed. What usually happens within incestuous relationships is that there is a healthy balance there between the two roles; the couple fulfills BOTH roles as best they can. I realize that this is not a perfect system, but people are not perfect, and there is no such thing as a perfect relationship, either incestuous or otherwise. +Finally I'll give you one more hinter, your sex scenes don't need to be mind boggling, I know from both my own experience and from speaking to numerous people that incestuous couples are not really any kinkier in bed than the rest of you. Hence it is okay for the sex itself to be ordinary. Besides, don't you think that incest is naughty enough in its own right? +Having said all of this, I wish you the best of luck with writing better incest stories.

Logging on to Literotica, she began to surf the ""new stories"" area. She loved visiting the erotic literature site, and always found something stimulating. Occasionally she discovered a real gem, a combination of just the right fantasy and a style of writing that resonated with her precise personal preferences. When she found one of those she would save it, and revisit the story many times, usually with her battery-operated friend. Sometimes it gave her an idea for a fantasy she could act out with her boyfriend. +Tonight she noticed a story called ""White Showers"" and decided to check it out. It turned out to be about a woman with a driving love of cum. One night her lover takes her to a chateau outside of Paris for a special surprise. +""Hmm, French chateau - good start,"" thought Amy. (""Story of O"" had always been one of her favorites.) +There the woman is blindfolded and taken to a room where she is undressed. She can feel that at least three people are removing her clothes. Her hair is brushed back from her face and secured in a ponytail. Someone dabs perfume on her neck and between her breasts; she is not familiar with the scent, but it is exquisite – hypnotic. Some kind of soft cuffs are placed on her wrists, perhaps velvet or fleece, and she is led into another room. There they make her kneel on cushions, and they have her lean forward until her upper body is resting on a comfortable support. The middle of the support is open to allow her breasts to hang down. Her wrists are secured to ropes so that although she can move them somewhat, the range of motion is limited. These people leave, and a few minutes later she can hear others entering the room. She can't tell how many, but it sounds like quite a few. +By now Amy had a pretty good idea where the story was heading, and she liked it very much. She slipped her hand inside the elastic waist of her sweats and began to enjoy the story even more. +The woman is made to service an unknown number of men. They use her mouth frequently, and she is taken from behind in her pussy and ass. Her bonds allow her hands just enough freedom for her to cup their balls as they cum in her mouth. She swallows load after load, and eventually her face is covered with hot male juice. As they fuck her and cum on her she has multiple orgasms, and eventually the sperm is dripping from her breasts and is running from her pussy and ass, coating her thighs. Finally she hears the men leave the room. She realizes, however, that one has stayed as slips his rock-hard cock between her wet lips. Confident that she knows who it is, she sucks hard, jerking on his cock with one hand while gently squeezing his balls with the other. Just as he is about to cum, her pulls off her blindfold and she looks up at the face of her lover as he adds his hot sperm to her dripping mouth. +While reading the story, Amy brought herself off twice. She thought it would be fun to act out the fantasy with her boyfriend and be covered in cum. Going to the ""Toys and Videos"" link on Literotica, she found a squirting dildo that could be filled with fake cum. But where to get fake cum? The mixtures described on the site did not seem like they would really look or feel like cum, and she didn't want to squirt something sugary inside herself because she heard it can cause yeast to grow. On a hunch she browsed the ""How To"" area and - eureka! - there it was: ""Recipe For Cum by Hamilton G."" +Recipe For Cum by Hamilton G. +This recipe for theatrical cum looks like real cum, has no sugar (so as to discourage yeast), and has a neutral taste so that you can really get into the fantasy. Because it contains raw egg white you should make it fresh right before use and discard the leftovers. If you are concerned about using raw egg, either don't swallow it (half the fun!), or use pasteurized egg whites, which can be purchased in most supermarkets. However, fresh egg gives a better consistency. +1 cup water +2 tablespoons cornstarch +1 raw egg white +1 tablespoon plain yogurt +pinch of salt +Dissolve cornstarch in ¼ cup of water and set aside. Bring the remaining water and a pinch of salt to a simmer in a small saucepan, then stir the cornstarch to redissolve it and stir it in. Simmer and stir the mixture for about two minutes, it will be very thick. Cool the mixture thoroughly. If you don't let it cool the egg will get cooked. If you are impatient, set the pan in a bowl of ice and stir to speed the cooling. When cool, stir in the egg white and yogurt. Mix thoroughly with a wire whisk until smooth. If you want a little more flavor you can add ¼ teaspoon of vanilla extract and some Equal or Splenda for sweetness when you add the egg. +If you don't have a toy to use with this, you can get a squirt bottle (such as is used for ketchup) in supermarkets or kitchen stores. Fill the bottle and put it in the microwave for about fifteen seconds to make it just warm. +""I know there are other recipes that are easier to make.

I plan to post these as frequently as possible, however as a quality control measure I have my husband record his sessions for me, and I won't post a new Iteration until I observe him complete it. +##### +Welcome to the First Iteration. +Below are instructions that will take you through the 30 minutes of this Iteration. Each instruction is considered a ""phase"", and is assigned a time, so that when your timer reaches the time on the screen, you will proceed with the corresponding instruction. The goal of this challenge is to hold your orgasm until the clock reaches 30:00. +You'll also notice several checkpoints mixed in with the instructions. Because the goal of the challenge is to not orgasm until 30 minutes have elapsed, I created a few penalties for failure to keep the stakes high. Every time you pass a checkpoint, the penalty for failure changes. +Prior to Checkpoint 1, the penalty for orgasm is that you must instantly remove your hands when you feel the orgasm begin and keep them off your cock until after the orgasm subsides completely. This is called ""ruining"" your orgasm. Additionally, you will remain completely chaste for seven days (no sex or masturbation), after which you may attempt this Iteration again. +Between Checkpoint 1 and Checkpoint 2, the penalty for orgasm is to ruin your orgasm, and after it subsides you owe 60 seconds of slow stroking on your hypersensitive member. Since you reached Checkpoint 1, you may attempt this iteration again after only 24 hours of chastity. +After Checkpoint 2, if you are unable to make it to the 30 minute mark, you only need to ruin your orgasm with no additional penalty. +And if you make it all the way to 30:00, you win and may stroke to your satisfaction while you cum. Winning also unlocks the Second Iteration. So without further ado, here is a description of the different masturbation instructions that you'll receive, followed by the timetable for the challenge itself: +The strokes: +""Rest"" - during a rest period HANDS OFF. +""Lube Up"" - This instruction is usually the first phase of an Iteration. During this phase you are to coat your hands and member with generous lubricant. While you are directed to apply lube to your cock, you may not use this phase to jerk off, just focus on the task of lubricating. +""Tease"" - a generic ""tease"" instruction gives you the opportunity to tease yourself as you like. You may tickle your balls or the head of your cock, stroke your shaft with a light touch, flick your frenulum with your thumb, or press heavily with your index finger on the underside of your shaft and run it up and down your cock. Also, if you require more lube, a ""tease"" phase affords you that opportunity. +""Balls and Head Tease"" - lightly run your fingertips along your balls and the head of your cock. No touching the shaft. +""Light tease stroke"" - this tease is a stroke, but a stroke where your hand is held loosely so you're barely touching yourself. Go at whatever speed you desire. +""Slow stroke"" - using a single handed grip, masturbate in long, slow strokes that go from the base of your cock all the way up to the head. For an idea of timing, a ""slow stroke"" should take 5 seconds to complete one lap from base to head and back to the base. +""Medium stroke"" - this stroke is the fastest stroke you'll use in most Iterations. Keep pace with the Bee Gees ""Stayin' Alive"". As with the ""slow stroke"" this involves long, complete strokes that stimulate the whole shaft and the head. +""Ring stroke"" - make a ring from your thumb and index finger and stroke yourself from base to tip with just those two fingers. Use the ""Medium stroke"" pace unless otherwise instructed. +""Fuck it yourself"" - wrap your hand around your cock as if you were doing a slow or medium stroke. No moving it though. The only motion will come from your hips as you fuck your hand at whatever speed you are able to. +""Head stroke"" - the head is incredibly sensitive, especially after playing for a while, so I typically split this instruction into 30 second blocks. The first 30 seconds is a ""Ring"". You create a ring from your thumb and index finger, similar to the ""ring stroke"". Instead of stroking, however, you wrap that ring around where your cock head meets the shaft. You then rotate the ring left and right, stimulating that oh-so-sensitive head. This will be intense. The second block is the ""Palm"". Holding the base of your shaft in one hand, you press your palm into the underside of your cock head with the other hand and rub. Once again, this is very intense. You may lose your erection during this phase, but even if you go flaccid you may not stop with either the Ring or the Palm until your next instruction. +""Edge"" - this instruction requires you to use a ""medium stroke"" to get right to the edge of orgasm by the end of the phase. I don't use the term ""edge of orgasm"" lightly: You are required to bring yourself to the point where you are a hairbreadth away from cumming, and you must do so before the end of the ""Edge"" phase. After reaching the edge, if there is still time left before the next phase, you earn a 10 second break, after which you need to edge again. You then will alternately edge and rest until the time arrives for the next instruction. This instruction is unique because it is the only instruction (so far) that can cause you to fail the Iteration without cumming. If you cannot reach an edge before the phase ends, you must stop without orgasming, and try again after 24 hours of chastity. +""Edge ride"" - This usually follows an ""Edge"" instruction. An edge ride is like an edge, only more intense in that there is no 10 second break between edges. Your instruction is to bring yourself to the Edge and keep yourself there, your fingers dancing lightly over your cock or stroking lightly at whatever speed keeps you on the edge of orgasm without going over. This is incredibly hard to do without blowing your load, so odds are you may not make it to the second checkpoint on your first try. I apologize in advance for the ruined orgasm and the post-orgasm stimulation you'll have to endure. +Below are the phases for the First Iteration.

Please make sure you are comfortable with everything you read and proceed at your own risk. +##### +Welcome to the Second Iteration. Congratulations on completing the First Iteration. That first session was by no means easy, so good for you! Going forward, I'm going to assume that you are familiar with the terminology of the game and the different strokes I've told you so far (go back to the First Iteration to review anything you're fuzzy on prior to beginning). I will introduce any new instructions below before I present to you the timeline of the phases in this Iteration. +Today's Iteration is going to involve a lot less edging, but that will actually make it harder to complete as the only opportunity to stop at the edge is when you're in an edging phase. As with last time, the goal is to make it all the way to the thirty minute mark before you orgasm. Despite the lack of opportunity to edge and rest, I am keeping the penalties the same. They are: +Prior to Checkpoint 1, the penalty for orgasm is that you must instantly remove your hands when you feel the orgasm begin and keep them off your cock until after the orgasm subsides completely. This is called ""ruining"" your orgasm. Additionally, you will remain completely chaste for seven days (no sex or masturbation), after which you may attempt this Iteration again. +Between Checkpoint 1 and Checkpoint 2, the penalty for orgasm is to ruin your orgasm, and after it subsides you owe 60 seconds of slow stroking on your hypersensitive member. Since you reached Checkpoint 1, you may attempt this iteration again after only 24 hours of chastity. +After Checkpoint 2, if you are unable to make it to the 30 minute mark, you only need to ruin your orgasm with no additional penalty. +And if you make it all the way to 30:00, you win and may stroke to your satisfaction while you cum. +My husband completed this one on his third try, so I apologize in advance for the penalties you have to endure for not making it all the way to the end. Good luck! +The New Strokes: +""Light head stroke"" - With a loose fist, masturbate only the head of your cock at the medium stroke pace. +""Balls and shaft tease"" - much like the ""balls and head tease"", except this time you have to run your fingers along your balls and the shaft of your cock, but you're not allowed to touch the head. +""Frenulum rub"" - the frenulum, or the ridge where the head meets the shaft on the underside of your cock, responds to rubbing just like a clit. Some even refer to it as the male clit. During this phase you will grip the base of your cock tightly with one hand and rub back and forth over your frenulum with the index finger of your other hand - as you would when you stimulate a clit. +Below are the phases for the Second Iteration. For best results, open your computer's clock/timer, reduce the window size so it fits on the screen next to the phase list, and use the stopwatch option to time yourself.

Erase your insecurities. Revel in your sexuality. Make sure he knows that you're in love with who you are. +Tell him what you want – Your most powerful tool is your mouth. Tell him what you want him to do to please you – and do it daily. Don't wait until you're in the bedroom. Whisper it in his ear as he leaves home. Tuck a note in his pants pocket. Call him at work. Send him an e-mail or a text message. +Use nudity as a tool -- Keep your man naked as much as possible. It heightens his sexuality and keeps him exposed. Get rid of bathrobes and pajamas. Insist that he remain naked as he get ready for work. Forbid him from wearing anything – boxers or briefs – to bed. When it comes to your body, tell him he needs your permission to see you completely naked. +Keep him smooth – Require your man to shave his cock and balls daily. If you like his behind, make him shave that, too. And make sure you inspect his work. Hairlessness makes him more vulnerable. It's also better for those occasional blowjobs. +Touch, but don't let him touch – Outside the bedroom, follow a hands-on, hands-off policy. Touch him frequently – a pat on the behind, a face-to-face grope of his package, a playful twist of his nipples. When he tries to reciprocate, give him the evil eye and require him to ask permission. +Ladies first – Train your man to be a gentleman. Insist that your pleasure always comes first. And if he breaks the rule, make sure there are consequences. +Make him watch – Men love to see women touching themselves. So make it a regular part of your foreplay. +Hands off – Make sure he knows that touching himself without your permission is forbidden. When he asks nicely, reward him. +Get his tongue to work – It's all about your pleasure. So train him to be an undercover artist. Many women prefer to lie on their back with their man's head buried in their sex. Others like to take a licking while standing – either from the front or behind. And of course, there's the ultimate – straddling his face. Try them all. +With this ring – Cock rings (rubber, metal or leather) are a powerful tool. They are symbols of love and lust. And they can make big things happen. Some women require their mates to wear them at all times. Other slide them on before lovemaking to make him rock hard. Add a leash and you've got an obedient pet for the night. +Keeping him in line – When your man misbehaves – and he will – make sure to remind him who is in charge. Here are a few tied, er, tried and true methods: +o Grab him by the balls – They're not as delicate as he would have you believe. A firm grasp and a jerk won't hurt him badly, but it will get his attention. o Slap his cock – Use your hand or a ruler to swat the head of his cock. It's a guaranteed attention-getter. o Twist or pinch his nipples – Most men have sensitive nipples. A firm twist or a pinch will have him sitting up straight. o Bind his hands – Tie or cuff his hands behind his back. o Put him on a short leash – Attach a leash to his cock ring. Or buy a collar to rein him in. o Stop the action – Give him a short time out. Tell him you won't resume play until he's flaccid. +Make him confess – Knowledge is power. So get inside his head when it comes to sex. As you stroke his cock, make him tell you what turns him on. Demand details and descriptions. You may soon find your other hand between your legs. And when your session is over, use the new information to taunt and excite him for the next time. +In the end ��� The area between the scrotum and the anus can be a pleasure playground. Some men don't like you to go there, but others will beg for it. Start out slow and watch for his reaction. Fingernails are especially nice touches. If you're game, slip a finger in this ass. It's guaranteed to get his attention. +Getting into the act – Role play is a fun way to explore new bounds to your relationship. And the possibilities are unlimited – teacher/student, prison matron/inmate, Cleopatra/slave, policewoman/burglar, etc. +Getting busy – All this foreplay will usually lead to sex. Remind him of the rules, ladies first. (See consequences below) And then chose the position that you like best. You don't have to be ""on top,"" to be on top of the action. Tell him how you want it, slow or fast, soft or hard. +Consequences – When you mate loses control before you're ready, there must be consequences. Here are a few ideas to get you started: +o Sentence him to a week without orgasm o Require him to masturbate in your presence on the morning of your next date o Spank his bare behind o Make his lick up his mess +Sign of the times – Dominating your mate can be a way of life or an occasional treat (for you and him). The choice is yours. Whatever you decide, you can keep him on his toes with prearranged signals that tonight is the night. Invent a code word or phrase – for example, ""Ms. Smith is coming over tonight."" Lay out a pair of red boxers or briefs. Send him suggestive e-mails or text messages during the day. Slip a note in his lunchbox with pre-event requirements – for example, ""Don't come home with your undies on if you know what's good for you."" +Above all, do what you like. After all, you are in charge." +741,The Right Editor,jehoram,How To,2012-04-30,2012-04-30,2022-01-04 08:40:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-right-editor,How the right editor can make a good story better.,"['Editor', 'Writing']",4.16,"There are quite a lot of articles on how authors can use editors, and how editors can help authors. They usually examine the proper use of language, the importance of continuity in a story, and some pitfalls that new writers of erotica (or any fiction, for that matter) need to avoid. +I'm lucky in that I've used an editor for years who is not only a personal friend, but a writer of erotica in her own right. (In fact, she's a better writer than I am, even though she needs to be reassured of that from time to time.) Not only does she do the things that an editor is supposed to do, like check my spelling and ask why a character I started out calling Maria is later referred to as Marie, but she adds another dimension to my writing based on her own perspective as a woman. She doesn't do it much, but when she does suggest a re-write, it's almost always because she caught something that I hadn't thought of. +I should point out that the kind of stuff I write isn't the usual porn I grew up with, where all a character had to do was show his ten-inch dick to a girl to entice her to bed and give her a thundering orgasm with a few seconds of his cocksmanship. I wanted to write plausible stories about real people having realistic sex, because that's what turns me on. And that's where Athalia has been a real help. +I don't know how many times she's returned a story with an annotation that a scene just ""didn't work"" for her. At first, it was usually one of my attempts to describe a female orgasm, or provide a motive for a female character's actions. I had come face to face with the writer's classic dilemma about ""writing what you know"" versus telling a story from multiple points of view. It's more than just lacking a set of ovaries, as she's pointed out to me. Being raised as a male, with certain expectations drummed into me and certain privileges granted to me, makes it hard to relate to that part of a population that has grown up with vastly different expectations and privileges. For example, it hadn't occured to me that a small-framed woman (as Athalia is) would be far more likely to be physically intimidated by an aggressive stranger than a large-framed woman or just about any normal man. She will not walk into a bar of strangers with the same mind-set I will. And I have given up trying to persuade her to visit a nude beach with me and my wife, since she still equates nakedness with vulnerability and her small size increases that feeling of vulnerability. At best, she will allow herself to be publicly nude only in woman-only situations, and she's uncomfortable even then. +I have to admit at this point that she doesn't write the sort of erotica that most women write. Rather then stick to the formulas of women's romance novels and short stories, she's striving for a more realistic portrayal of modern women in a society that raises its women to be more straightforward about sex and female physiology. (It's that common interest in realistic erotica that drew us together as writer/editor teams.) For one thing, she's mentioned how a woman's chance of getting pregnant directly influences her attitude toward sex. That's not a big factor for us guys, especially when the lust takes charge, but it makes all the difference in the world for many, if not most women. For another thing, she'll take into account whether a woman in her story is menstruating, and how that affects her attitude toward sex. That's a subject you never find in your bodice-rippers, and damned rare in erotica except as a fetish element, but Athalia feels that it's a part of any woman's life that shouldn't be glossed over. Women menstruate, they take it in stride, and they deal with it. It's no big thing. +If you check out her stories on the site, you'll see that her characters are more interested in the relationship than the sex. Her female characters are almost always the instigators of the sex, but are careful to sort out how others might react to it before they make the move. And she's explained to me how important these things should be to the female characters in my own stories. +I've edited her stories when she asked me to, and I've found it interesting that I seldom have to correct her on her portrayals of male attitudes and male orgasms. When I commented to her on that, she suggested that, during sex, women usually pay more attention to what their partners are going through than men do. I don't know if that's true in general, but it seems to be true for her. Aside from correcting grammatical errors and pointing out Britishisms that leak into her prose and spelling, about all I have to do is re-write her dialogue occasionally so that it falls more naturally on the ears. +It's been fascinating to work with her, and I recommend to any budding writer to find an editor that can not only fix your mistakes and polish your prose, but give you a perspective that you may be lacking. The pairing could be male/female, or young/old, or gay/straight, depending on the subject matter of your story; the important thing is that it guide you to an understanding of the world that widens your audience and your experience. It's certainly worked for me. +(Athalia adds: I can vouch for the fact that I've learned something from editing Jehoram's stories, as he has from editing mine, and I agree that a good editor can make the difference between a good story and a better one. +Jehoram doesn't mention that I'm an incest survivor, which has undoubtedly contributed to my fear of being nude in public places. I'm still working on that. Someday, perhaps, I'll be over it. +One more thing. Due to time constraints, I have not added my own name to the list of editors on the site. I do it mostly as a personal favor to a friend I've known for a long time. Once I've retired, I'll reconsider, but for the foreseeable future I'll have to stay with just the one client.

To do so you must say out loud ""I'm a needy slut, increase my wager so I'm free to touch"" +Rule 4: You cannot look at the timer or remove your enchanted panties during the game; +Rule 5: If you break rules 2 through 4 by touching without first increasing your wager, by looking at the timer, or removing your enchanted panties the game ends and you loose according to the terms of your wager; +Rule 6: The standard wager is a specific number of days of denial, the maximum standard wager is 100 days of denial; +Rule 7: The non-standard wagers include a high risk wager of 1 year of denial and a max risk +wager of permanent denial, the high risk wager is the next level increase for a 100 day standard wager and the max risk wager is the next level increase for the high risk wager. There is no level increase for the max risk wager; +Rule 8: During the course of the game your enchanted panties and in some case you will tease and edge your pussy throughout the game at a consistency and intensity proportional to your wager. The higher the wager the more intense and constant the edging. +Rule 9: Your enchanted panties will prevent you from cumming throughout the game until the timer goes off and you win the game or you give up and lose the game by saying out load ""I give in, I'm a desperate slut, make me cum and take away my orgasms"" +Rule 10: The intensity of your orgasm from the timer or giving up is determined by the initial wager you made to start the game and your base level of orgasm as identified when training your enchanted panties. The higher your wager the better your orgasm. A wager of 1 day is your base orgasm, a wager of 5 days is 5 times better then your base orgasm, etc. The high risk wager will give you an orgasm that is 500 times better than your base level and the max risk wager will give you an orgasm that is 1000 times better than your base level. +Rule 11: If you lose a game for any reason your enchanted panties will take away your ability to cum for as many days as you wagered and will make you edge at least once every day you are denied; +Rule 12: You may not play Risk/Reward in the normal manner while denied by the game. Instead you can play to try and earn back your orgasms by playing with a wager that is at least one level higher than the final wager made in the game in which you lost. However, if you play Risk/Reward in this way your enchanted panties will not make you cum when the timer goes off, but giving up will still get you an orgasm just like a normal game. This rule does not apply to losing a max risk wager. +Rule 13: If you loose a game of Risk/Reward you can also end your denial (including permanent denial from a max risk wager) by telling someone about the game, these rules, your predicament, and getting explicit permission from that person to cum.

So close that you are amazed so haven't gone over. Held here by the power of the words and your new enchanted panties.

Staying DROPPED and open with each fast and slow stroke of your delicious sex. Beginning to approach the edge again concentrating once more on that amazing orgasm that awaits. An orgasm that is 1000 times better than any you've had before. Closer and closer with each breath and touch. +Holding again right on the edge rubbing and fingering all you want unable to go further because of the power of the words and your enchanted panties. +Again backing away from the edge just as the words tell you. Feeling that deep ache of denial and need. Bask in your body's animal lust. The fire that has been lit that the words are holding at bay. +Again slowly slowly tip toeing towards the edge, the edge of an orgasm 1000 times better than the best you've ever had.

Still playing, rubbing, stroking as you read and experience all the pleasure that the words are giving you. +Beginning now to approach the edge one last time, one last time before the words give you the epic release your entire body and mind is desperately clamoring for.

Reading the words and experiencing all the pleasure they give. +9 +Even closer now, so so aroused and needy, dripping almost like a fountain. +8 +still one more small almost immeasurable step closer feeling the arousal and need thought your body and mind. Tingling and glowing as you've never felt before. +7 +So close and still so far. The edge feeling almost like torture now. Just floating in the abyss of pleasure and need. +6 +Almost halfway there, feeling your hips and pelvis pulse and gyrate in anticipation of the epic release that is building and building. The torrent of release held back by the word your enchanted panties and your Dropped open mind. +5 +Halfway, halfway to release of the monumental pressure being held back by the power of the words. +4 +Almost nothing left now but the egg and the needy ache its imparting to the deep deep caverns of your mind. Following the words, do as they say holding the edge even as you get closer and closer to that amazing orgasm you crave 1000 times better than any you've had before. +3 +Only 2 more steps, 2 more steps to the pleasure of a lifetime exploding throughout your mind and body. Remembering that with degrees of intensity and constancy that this is how your enchanted panties will tease you when you play the game. Pushing and pushing you to give in before the timer grants you release. +2 +SO very very close now feeling even the hazy fog fade away to be replaced by the need that now permeates your entire essence. Your whole body aching with the manifest need to just tip over that edge. But knowing you can't until the words and your enchanted panties release you. +So close +So so close +Very nearly there... +1 +CUM +CUM +CUM NOW +NOW +CUM so HRAD and GOOD, 1000 times better than you've ever had before. +Ridding the wave until it fades into blissful release, reading only after it does. +Feeling the glorious afterglow of that epic orgasm. Just a taste of what you can win by playing the game. Will you be brave enough to play. Can you risk the consequences can you resist an hour of needy edging to get that sweet sweet reward one more time? Only you know the answer. The words leave that up to you. You must decide what you're willing to risk to achieve that sweet reward. +Feeling the real world begin to return now. The hold the words have on you fading away. +Slowly slowly your conscious mind begins to come back remembering everything you've experienced everything you've agreed to and accepted. Becoming fully awake and in control again on the count of 10. +10 +Coming up from the deep. +9 +More and more control and awareness +8 +The fog receding +7 +Seeing the outside world again waking slowly until the words have left you awake and refreshed. +6 +More and more awake with each number. +5 +Almost there +4 +Feeling your feet and hands again under your complete control. +3 +The fog just a memory now +2 +Clear headed and alert +1 +Awake now, fully awake.

This usually opens a comment of being away for a while, coming back, asking for e-mail, giving hints and tips ... just about all that is NOT part of the plot. + **** + **Role Playing no manual but experiences and hints from a dedicated player.** +“Hello, I am a role play addict” – that could be my introduction to the role players anonymous... +I have been participating in all sorts of role-plays, different people, different settings and different contents (and ratings) ... and I always found not all of them were equally intriguing. And I started to wonder why... here some of my personal realizations. + **In short (and no particular order):** +· **Characters:** To participate in any action, you need to be there for more than one post. To be there you have to create your personal character. +· **Taking influence:** When playing remember that all participants have equal rights (unless agreed upon differently) in influencing the development of the story. **It is absolutely BAD style to play others’ characters!** +· **Interaction and plot line development:** Give the other party involved a chance for choice! +· **Entering into a thread** Introduce your character. +· **Ending a post in an active thread:** Give your fellow players something to work on, invite their reaction. +· **Leaving a thread for an extended period or for good** Write your character out of the action. +· **Anything else?** Role-playing is for fun! And a little humor in the posts as well as in the general approach never hurts! +* * * +The long version: + **** + **The “role play” is called “role play” because the player plays a role!** +Uhmmm – yeah, well, go figure! +It sounds like a completely strange thing to say but ... this holds the essentials of good role-playing. I do take on a role, I am thinking, performing, doing, and saying things along the story according to the adopted personality I chose for this role. This means I am not just continuing to write a story from a third person point of view, but I become part of the story, I am being one of the participants in the action. +Picture yourself being an actor in a stand-up show. You only can act for yourself, you do not know what the others will do, what their responses would be to your actions. This is exactly what role-playing is – become a fantasy person in a fantasy setting, ready to interact with the fellow participants via the written word. + **** + **Basic thoughts and RP-Etiquette:** + **Characters:** To participate in any action, you need to be there for more than one post. To be there you have to create your personal character. +Now we all know about our real life insufficiencies, but please, do not go now and create a fantasy character that is PERFECT! You will soon enough find out that people do not want to play with a too perfect character, since they always will be stuck in an inferior role. And just as much as you want to be a hero in your fantasy world, everybody else does. +Little example from a Sword & Magic – RP: A new player created a sorcerer character, and gave it unbeatable powers. All threads involving him would end shortly with some post saying that his powers were unbeatable and thus he defeated whoever was his opponent. It did not take long and nobody replied to his posts anymore – it was no fun because nobody likes to know from the beginning that they can only be the losers... +For practical purpose that means: design your character at least slightly realistic. Of course it can be different from who and what you are IRL, but according to the environment the story is set in, give it a few likeable insufficiencies, even if it is only that your character is being ticklish or allergic to broccoli. + **Taking influence:** When playing remember that all participants have equal rights (unless agreed upon differently) in influencing the development of the story. +This means that just because you want the plot to go in a distinct direction does not necessarily mean it will happen. It is up to you to now with intelligence and creativity – just as you would in real life – to influence the scene accordingly. + **It is absolutely BAD style to play others’ characters!** +What I mean is to take decisions and act for others. I am not talking about little reactions you just need to assume to get on with your story, and some patterns of behavior can be taken for given by the development of a character and a story, but I seriously would warn to take too many liberties with your fellow players. +I more than once was rather pissed off to return to a thread and see that someone had made my character act in a way that was strictly against the whole personality I had set up, e.g. I was playing a mighty bad girl and held the leader of the good guys captive in my castle (we had worked out some really nice plot line of how he could free himself without me going against my bad wicked nature). the next thing I read is that another player had _“...sneaked into the castle_ (which was protected by numerous magic spells, reason for why I had been able to take a captive at all) _past the guards._ (Needless to mention my guards at that time were a monster army) _I then took the captain of the guards captive, forced him to lead me to the witch’s quarters. Quivering with fear from this unknown stranger she threw herself at my feet and sobbing begged for mercy. I then went to release the Commander. The witch surrenders herself, her castle and her army.”_ +Uhhmmm – I guess it is easy to picture I was “not amused” about this! +What I am trying to say: act for yourself only – speak for yourself only! At least as major things are concerned. There is nothing wrong with letting someone nod in agreement or say a few words as long as they don’t influence the decisions, actions and character of the other party. + **Interaction and plot line development:** Give the other party involved a chance for choice! +Of course we all want people to react the way we would like them to, to get on with our own plans. But as much as you have to accept that people sometimes make choices or show reactions that you do not like or did not anticipate in real life, you have to live with it when role playing. +You can drop as many hints as you want, letting your fellow players know what the direction is you have in mind for the game, but it is advisable to give the other party you are interacting with a choice.... +E.g. _“I was looking at her – scanning her face for any even tiny sign that would betray her thoughts. But as much as I was hoping she would accept my offer_ (hint hint ... so my partner will know what I would WANT to be the next step) _all I could do now was wait for her to declare her will and intentions.”_ +Had I wanted my fellow player do NOT accept my offer it could have been something like: _“I was looking at her – scanning her face for any even tiny sign that would betray her thoughts. But although I was convinced she would never accept my offer, all I could do now was wait for her to declare her will and intentions.”_ + **Entering into a thread** Introduce your character. +Picture yourself in a pitch-dark room – you know there are other people there and you are supposed to solve some task together in there. What would you want the others to tell you about them? What do they need to know about you to judge your abilities, motivations and possible contribution to the task you have to solve? +This is about what I would say you should supply as far as character information goes in a first RP post when joining a thread. + **Ending a post in an active thread:** Give your fellow players something to work on, invite their reaction. +A good ending of a post (as far as I am concerned) is one that asks for re- action by another person/persons. This makes it so much easier for the follow- up writer to find a start for his/her next post. +E.g. _“... It was time to leave. I had sent him a note saying I would be waiting for him in the stables at midnight – and as I crossed the courtyard in the shadows, looking around for any possible pursuers, I heard the church bells chime. With held breath I silently opened the stable doors – anxious to see if he had come to flee with me as he had promised.”_ It should become obvious that I expect someone to meet me at the stables, so this calls for some response action. +I would find it more difficult to reply to a post ending like e.g. _“... It was time to leave and as I crossed the courtyard in the shadows I heard the church bells chime midnight. I entered the stables.”_ So what do I expect to happen? Of course the general story will provide some possible actions, but as I said, it is much easier for the next person if there is something to “work on”. +Or _“ She entered the bar and approached the table in the far corner, wondering what the night would hold in store for her. After she had been served her drink, she pulled out her cigarettes and instead of lighting it on second thought she let her lighter discretely slide back into her purse, turning to the table next to her asking in her most seductive voice:” Excuse me...” “_ +As opposed to: _“ She entered the bar and approached the table in the far corner, wondering what the night would hold in store for her. After she had been served her drink, she pulled out her cigarettes and lit one, waiting for anything to happen”_ +As things are – in real life and when role playing – she might have to wait for a while if not taking the first step herself. And don’t be afraid of rejection *s* - although it might happen it rarely does when RP-ing, and if it does, well – it has nothing to do with you personally! + **Leaving a thread for an extended period or for good** Write your character out of the action. +Live is a bitch and even for addicts like me sometimes my on-line time due to outside influences becomes suddenly limited to an extend that makes it impossible to maintain any regular RP-ing. In that case it is good style to let your character leave, take a business trip, go on a crusade, and if really desperate let him/her die. +It is annoying to all of a sudden find yourself stuck in the middle of an RP with a central character “sleeping”. If it is an essential character that can’t be gotten rid of easily, please be polite enough to mail one of your fellow players or OOC-post and ask him/her to take over your role or manipulate as needed till it is possible to write you out of the story. + **Anything else?** Well – yes. there is. +Role-playing lives from the contribution of many people – and I found it annoying when everybody started a new thread instead of responding/participating in the ones that were already there. What I mean to say is that no ongoing action will develop with a new thread popping up every other day. +Role-playing lives from the scenes created in the players’ minds. If you start a new thread describe the setting a little, so people know where they are, what they can expect before joining. Freedom and liberty are great – but you need some frame set to avoid chaos. +Role-playing lives from the colors and depths each player gives his/her character. Little mentioning of looks, feelings, and thoughts makes it much easier to “understand” a role and handle it accordingly. Even more than in real live, your fellow players only know as much about your character as you tell them – how could they treat you right if they do not know who you are and what you want? +Role-playing lives from the will to accept the others and not be annoyed each time things don’t go the way we want. +Role playing lives from accepting each other in the roles we are playing which may not have to do anything with our real personality. +Role-playing lives from the goodwill of all parties involved. It means to accept little flaws in the posts of your fellow players as much as a certain degree of effort for your own posts (consistency with the story line and a minimum amount of grammar and spelling). This means too that the rules for the according RP community are law! +Role-playing lives from the creativity and the readiness to accept the challenge. I like to compare it to “creative chess” – you always find yourself on a new board, with new figures – and no matter how much you think in advance about your next move – it might be thrown over board with the move of one of the co-players. + **Role-playing is for fun!

They are entitled to their opinion, however, I think that many people are close-minded about an experience which can be extremely erotic, not to mention safe and cost effective. +1.) Phone sex is a safe way to explore fantasies for the newly kinky and reprobate old perverts alike. There is no risk of getting an STD. You don't have to worry about whether your Mistress honors safe words because you can stop if you don't like something. You don't run the risk of paying out big bucks for a mediocre experience because you only pay by the minute. Again, if you don't like it you can just hang up. You can go places in fantasies that you might not go in real life. Or you can ""try them on"" and see if a particular fantasy is for you. And if you are hung up on how you look, or are shy, looks aren't as important as imagination and sexual creativity on the phone. +2.) What do I say when people say phone sex is for losers? +My impression is that most of my customers are NOT losers. The type of person that is attracted to the submissive role is varied, but it seems that most of them are highly intelligent and successful. +In my opinion, phone sex is a more intelligent choice. It takes imagination and an intelligent mind to get turned on by erotica over the phone. I also feel that people who make the choice to go to a phone dominatrix value their physical health over sexual impulse. Being a submissive is a risky position. People who err on the side of caution are that much ahead of the rest. Also, the type of customers who are attracted to my flavor of kink, i.e. feminization, tend to be either very secure in their manhood and their ability to get in touch with their feminine side, or they are at peace with their exploration of the feminine and feel comfortable with it. No coward or loser would dare to be called a pussy or have the female/male roles reversed. In fact, in my opinion, the losers are the ones who hide behind macho facades such as ""I ain't no sissy?"" For my callers to allow me to take them to that place of sissification, it takes great nerve and security in who they are as a person. +3.) Phone sex Mistresses are more available than the professional dominatrix. Therefore, the price is usually reasonable, anywhere (on average) from .79/minute on up to 2.99 per minute. Since most calls last on an average of 3 minutes, you cannot really go wrong. So if you want to go out and pay $10 for a cheap street hooker and run the risk of getting an STD go ahead. However, you'll get more for your money with a phone dominatrix and you'll find that most of the phone dominatrix in the business are far more intelligent and far more interested in giving you the ultimate domination experience, and enjoying themselves in the process. In addition to that, with the computer age and the ability to forward calls, more and more women with mainstream lives are becoming part time phone sex operators, so stereotypes of phone sex women do not really apply. +4.) Why pay when you can get it for free? To put it simply, there are no games, no strings, and no commitments. You don't have to go through the game playing of the dating experience or be concerned that your phone dominatrix is not going to be into your kink. Most state their preferences clearly on their website so you know where you stand. You can have a regular calling relationship with a phone dominatrix, or not. But there are never any obligations. Phone workers are discreet. Although I get to know the personality and likes and dislikes of my regular callers, I have no commitment to them other than sharing my imagination, my sexy voice, and my love of BDSM. I don't see any of their financial info or their name because the website I work out of takes care of that. + **Part 2: Making It Real** +So how do you make a phone domination fantasy real, hot, and passionate? +1) Know the person's hot buttons, fetishes, and limits. It helps to have them share in an email or on the phone what turns them on and their limits. Submissive fetishists are diverse in their tastes. Mistresses can develop a survey or a consent agreement which when answered by the submissive allows her to get to know them better. I find phone domination services which just launch into a script or a domination scene the minute you pick up the phone to be not at all concerned with the client. +Some clients expect that of a phone domination service and if you ask them what their kink is, they have no ability to vocalize what it is that they want. When they don't know what they want, then I can try to second guess them, or I can tell them what really turns me on, but since my calls run the gamut of sexual orientation and gender identity, it is kind of like playing the lottery. Which fetish am I going to pull out of the hat when you call? It is better if you send me an email telling me your nickname and what it is that turns your crank. +2) Make it erotic. Get very descriptive of your body and his and what your responses are to dominating him. Describe every sensation in great detail. Ask him how he is doing. Know how aroused he is and use this to prolong his orgasm. Tease him, tantalize him, and deny him. Use your voice to dominate him. Make it soft and sexy then hard and demanding. Push him over the edge with your demands, when the time is right. +3) Make it real. Tell your submissive what you would like for him to bring with him to the phone, for example, dildos, butt plugs, nipple clamps, clothes pins, a candle, a belt, etc. Tell him exactly what to do with the items he has gotten. Make him feel vulnerable and controlled. It helps if he can let go and feel that he is not in control of what happens. Own his body. Tell him exactly when and if he can have release. Give him homework. Tell him what he needs to do before the next session. Promise punishment if he does not do it and follow through." +746,The Rub,Split Liquor,How To,2000-12-29,2000-12-29,2022-01-04 08:40:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-rub,Step by step of his massage technique.,"['Back Shoulders', 'Back Thighs', 'Belly Button', 'Breasts Tongue', 'Circling Slowly', 'Hands Massaging', 'Lower Back', 'Massage', 'Massage Back', 'Top Legs']",3.92,"**The splitLiquor Massage** +I like to start very slowly, starting with the neck, I massage down and to the shoulders, then the face, all around the eyes, forehead, even ears and scalp. +From there I start over with toes then feet, slowly up the calves, then up to the lower back, working even more slowly, making soft circles with both hands up the back, all the way back to the shoulders. +Next, I work my way back to the calves, then very slowly up, most of the way up each thigh. +By then, it's difficult to continue without loosening clothes. +Once loosened, the massage has to start all over. +By the time I'm back to the thighs, it's time to start removing clothes, shirt first. Massage the back…unsnap the bra. Massage the back more, lower back up to the shoulders, running a finger from the neck down to the crack of the ass, so lightly, it's almost a tickle, just once or twice. +Roll over, slowly massage from the neck outward to the shoulders, back inward and down, circling the breasts, not massaging them yet. +Now, it's time to massage from the fingertips slowly up the arms, one at a time, with an occasional nipple lick, maybe just a little suck. +Soon, the nipples are nice and erect and the arms are completely limp from pleasure. Next, a firm but soft breast massage, circling slowly up the erect nipples. +Skip back to the thighs, removing pants. Robustly massage each thigh, stopping JUST short of the crotch, with a slight tickle of the crotch following each massage stroke. Panties off. Making the slightest touch with the fingertip to the clitoris, like a feather. Slow, slower, just enough to cause some movement towards the finger. +Quick, but soft, finger push inside, just enough to check the wetness. +Back to the breasts for the tongue massage, circling ever so slowly toward the belly button, hands massaging under the butt. +Moving the hands up to the breasts, and the tongue lower and lower, soon the tongue is circling around and into the belly button, hands now massaging the attentive breasts. +Tonguing continues all around the golden triangle, sometimes just a quick lick up the split. Slowly opening the labia with the tip of the tongue and a quick thrust inside. +Back to the toes and working my way up each leg again, all the way up, with a quick finger thrust into the wet waiting pussy. Time for a generous pussy massage with a hot, thrusting tongue, keeping it up until an orgasm has grasped you all over. Once the orgasm has been kept going as long as possible, it's time to rollover and start up the legs again, slowly spreading them, making that wet, throbbing pussy ready for more. +By now, my pants are off and my stiffie is sneaking up to that hot wet area. Kneeling, I grasp under and below your stomach, pulling you up, doggy-style until my hot meat roll is teasing your wet pussy mercilessly. Teasing until another orgasm is so, so close. +Thrust, deep and hard all the way in. Out, all the way out. Another teasing, another deep thrust. There'll be another orgasm soon. Roll over again, woman on top, legs together, providing the action, totally wet and slick. Perhaps another orgasm, perhaps waiting until the next roll over, me on top, your legs tight together, me still thrusting in and out, slowly, fully keeping it up until that last loud scream. +Now, THAT's a massage and that's my story. +And, I'm stickin' to it cause I'm sticky right now. +Wanna do it again?" +747,The Rule of Blowjobs for Women,Selena_Kitt,How To,2008-02-19,2008-02-19,2022-01-04 08:40:27,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-rule-of-blowjobs-for-women,The first rule of blowjobs is...,"['Blowjob', 'Blowjobs', 'Education', 'Instruction', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Sex Advice']",4.51,"The art of oral pleasure goes far beyond the three T's: tips, tricks and techniques. They can be useful, sure, and definitely fun to learn and try. But tips and tricks are just that – and employing them without any true emotion leaves a woman feeling like a whore (and not in a good way) or a drone/robot, and a man feeling empty - literally and figuratively, if you've brought the blowjob to its usual conclusion. So the first rule of blowjobs is never do anything you don't really want to do. The second rule of blowjobs is... _never do anything you don't want to do._ The third and only other rule of blowjobs? It's all about the pleasure – his _and_ yours. Everything else is frosting on the cake. So here comes the frosting... +She Likes It, She Really Likes It! This is the single most important part of the blowjob. The pleasure you take in giving it. When a man is in this position, he is at his most vulnerable. He is open and exposed to you. (Remember, your vagina doesn't have teeth!) For me, this amount of trust is breathtaking and beyond arousing. I always take it as the profound and delightful gift it is. +Cleanliness is Next to... Many women hesitate to perform fellatio because of the smell or taste. Personally, I love that particularly masculine scent, but if it turns you off, don't worry, warm water and a washcloth are a great way to start a blowjob, and the rough cloth and some gentle rubbing and squeezing will go a long way toward getting him hard. Don't make a big deal out of it. Just make it part of foreplay. +Slow and Steady Wins the Race Tease. Spend time. Don't just start out like a Hoover on overdrive. Tickle his thighs with your fingernails. Kiss his chest and belly. Lick the inside of his thighs. Nibble and suck on his balls. (Careful! Some guys are too sensitive here for this.) Avoid the cock for a while. Then play with the shaft (which is much less sensitive than the head) before moving on to the top. +Breast Obsessed You've got them – don't forget to use them! Their size and shape don't matter – rub them over his chest and belly on your way down to the promised land. Drag them over his cock. Press his cock between them for a moment and try to reach it with your tongue. Slap your nipples with the head. Rub pre-cum over them. (You can rub the final cum over them, too, but we'll talk about that later!) +Pant Rant Follow _his_ breath, not your own. I admit, sucking cock turns me on. Sometimes it gets me more aroused than even he is at the moment! (Hey, I'm an excitable girl, what can I say?) So a good rule of thumb is to follow his breath. Match your rhythm, whether mouth or hand, with how fast he's breathing, speeding up as he does, and you'll pretty much be on target. +Equipment Tips The cock is basic: head, shaft, testicles. The shaft has the least amount of nerve endings amongst the three. The balls are very sensitive, but in a different way from the head. Think of the cock head as your clit. If he's uncircumcised, it's really quite similar, because his foreskin serves to protect the deliciously sensitive nub underneath. If he's circumcised, the most sensitive part of the cock is usually what's called the frenulum—that arrow-shaped V on the underside at the tip. +But just like us girls, guys really like the build up, so remember to tease, follow his breath, and make him wait for it. Use his foreskin (if he still has it) to caress the cock head, up and down. Even if he's cut, there's usually still enough loose skin left on the shaft to bring it up and tease the head of the cock. Guys like that. It's what stroking is all about. +Sleek Technique +This is really the least important part of the blowjob. Tips and techniques are secondary, and they vary so much, depending on the man involved. I've known men who have balls so sensitive they can't have to stand them touched, let alone sucked and licked. On the other end of the spectrum, I've known men who get off on having them scratched, pulled and twisted. There are men who love blowjobs with no hands – they want all mouth. There are those who get off on the hand and mouth coordination. Some love to be sucked hard as a Hoover. Others like it light and slow, even at the end. And there's every part of the spectrum in between. The variations are endless. Truly, just endless. +That said, here are some techniques you can try. It's all one grand, messy, delightful experiment, so get in there and enjoy! + _Lube Tube_ That's right, they do sell edible lube. Want to give him a real treat? Squirt some into your mouth before you take him in. But if you're not into lube, then you'll have to do it naturally. The good news is, once you have something in your mouth, your body associates it with food and you will start salivating. A lot. Just let it happen and use your spit. Some men like you to actually spit on their cock. Find out if he likes this. Do it. It can be really hot. +_The Ice Cream Man_ Yep, just what it sounds like. He's the delicious cone that's come to you on a hot, muggy day, and you're going to lick him until he's all ~~gone~~ spent! Pretend he's an ice cream cone and you're smoothing your tongue around the head, catching the drips down the ~~cone~~ shaft. Do this for a while and see what the reaction is. When he can't stand it anymore, move onto something else. +_It's OK_ Put your thumb and forefinger in that ""OK"" position, then use it to circle the base of his cock. This is your base position, from which all hand strokes come. You can close all your fingers around him at some point and give him the full squeeze, but always remember to go back to ""OK."" +_Giving him the shaft_ Just because it has the fewest nerve endings doesn't mean it should be ignored. Think of your inner and outer vaginal lips... they're nowhere near as sensitive as your clit, but it does feel good to have them licked and sucked. The same goes for the shaft. Spend some time there, licking, squeezing, rubbing. I like to press the head against his belly and rub the underside of the shaft with my palm – or my breasts. Use your imagination! + _Chipmunk Cheeks_ Turn your head a little when you're sucking him. This gives him a different sensation (the smooth wall of your cheek) and it also gives him the wonderful illusion that his cock is just too big for your mouth! +_Humming_ Just what it sounds like. Take him into your mouth and hummmmmmm. The sensation is incredible. Just remember to use one basic tone. Don't start humming Yankee Doodle Dandy, or it's bound to break the mood. +_The Eyes Have It_ I've rarely heard this one disputed. Men are visual. They want to see your adoring eyes looking up at them while their cock is buried in your mouth. They want to see the smile, the hunger, the greed in your eyes at every moment. It's a big turn-on and a reassurance that you are, in fact, connected and really enjoying what you're doing. +_Dirty Flirty_ If you have a problem talking dirty, practice. No, I'm not kidding. Do it when you're alone. Practice in the shower. Whisper if you think someone might hear you. But practice. Try out the words. Cock. Pussy. Feel them in your mouth. Say them often enough that they sound good to you. Say them often enough that they turn you on. Work up to the big ones like ""cunt."" (Some women never get there – but I'm all in favor of freeing the much maligned ""cunt"" from its verbal prison!) Then try the phrases. ""Oh, god, I love your cock!"" and ""It's so big and beautiful, it makes my mouth water..."" (might sound silly, but in the heat of the moment, trust me... it's a winner.) ""I'm gonna suck you so hard, baby... do you want my mouth?"" and slowly work up to the ""That's right, I'm your greedy little cockwhore, baby, yes, fuck my mouth with that big cock!"" Once you've got it down in the shower, try it out on him. The feedback will be quite rewarding... and will spur you on and overcome your inhibitions. +_Don't Put Yourself on the Shelf_ Your pleasure is important, too. Let him squeeze your breasts and nipples. Moan when he does. (Cuz you know you want to anyway!) Reach between your legs and tell him, ""Sucking you makes me so hot, I have to play with my pussy!"" Let him hear how wet you are. Let him _taste_ how wet you are. Let him suck your fingers while you suck his cock. Rub your juices all over the head of his cock and lick it off. (Never tasted yourself? Try it! You're quite yummy!) + _Extreme Sucking_ Like extreme sports, this one isn't for everyone. But some guys simply love to be sucked as hard and long as you can. Think vacuum cleaner on overdrive. Hollow your cheeks and go for it! (But remember to ask him if he wants to try this, first, and stop when he tells you to!) +_Ice Is Nice, Heat is Neat_ Temperature change during a blowjob can be a lot of fun to play with. Slip an ice cube into your mouth while you're sucking him as a fun surprise. Or take a sip of hot tea before sucking him. Change it up between the two. The sensations are worth the time and effort! + _Discuss the Perineum & the Anus_ Some men love to have these areas touched. (Even licked... but that's a whole other article!) Talk about it beforehand, though, because some men are also reticent about this. Ask if you can try it, and do, if you're both open to it. The anus and perineum have lots of yummy nerve endings that can increase the intensity of orgasm, and men have a prostate gland to massage, as well.

If you want to try this technique, find one and practice. You can use a dildo. A carrot. A cucumber. Work on fighting your gag reflex. Sometimes it helps to practice before you take on an actual cock. But don't be scared, either. You don't have to do this if you don't want to (remember the first rule of blow jobs.) It's not the be-all and end-all of blowjob techniques. Remember that the most sensitive part of the cock is the head, not the shaft. Yes, it can feel good to have the head of the cock rubbing against the back of the throat and a thrill to watch it disappear into a mouth... but it isn't a necessity. + _Gaggle of Gaggers_ I wrote a [whole essay](http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=348518) on the art of gagging alone.

One motion, over and over, is boring and repetitive and... boring. Did I say boring? And while that's true, and you should change it up, it's also best to introduce each of these techniques like you do recipes to your repertoire (that is to say: one at a time, slowly, and only re-introduce the ""keepers"" so they become part of your regular diet!) +There is only one exception to this rule: when his breath is coming fast, his hips are thrusting up, he's got his hands in your hair, and he's just about to come.

Keep going and don't stop until you've got struck white gold. +_Cum Yum_ You have two choices: spit or swallow. There's lots of debate about this one, and articles all over the Internet (and elsewhere) about it. If he is intent on you swallowing, and you're afraid – try it. You can make it quick and relatively painless, even if you don't like the taste. Just block off your nose (you can do this at the back of your throat – without holding your nose - practice and see what I mean) and swallow. There will only be a slight aftertaste. But if he doesn't really care either way, and you really don't like the taste, spitting can be sexy, too. You don't have to make it about running to the bathroom and spitting it in the sink like you've got acid in your throat. Let him come in your mouth, then tip your head back and let it dribble out everywhere. Or spit it back out onto his belly and rub it all over your mouth and chin and breasts. If you really can't even stand to have his come in your mouth, then let him come on your breasts. I've stood up right at the last minute and aimed him between my legs and used those last few tugs to make him shoot all over my pussy. +\----- +That's it. Well, that's not really it.

It's not universal, but if you're a beginning writer I believe you will do better to keep these tips in mind. +-Sex Should Show Character- +A good sex scene is more than just a sex act described. Aside from being pleasurable to imagine, it also incorporates characters' personalities and relationship, and it even helps to define them a little. +In Gladiatrix, by Brianna_Tease, the titular protagonist wins a gladiatrix match and is rewarded with a massage given by her choice out of nine men. When the masseur offers to please her more intimately, she is hesitant at first. Then she grows comfortable with having a soft-handed hunk of a man all to herself, and eventually she orders him to bring her to multiple orgasms. This sex scene is more than just sex. It shows the gladiatrix getting accustomed to sex as a reward, getting over her shyness and also learning the perks of her new lifestyle. +Whenever I write sex scenes, I make sure that the characters' words, body language and even their choice of sex acts reflect their relationship. In my story Her Finest Steal, when a female thief manages to tie down an adventurer- prince and get the key to his chastity cage, she doesn't immediately have sex with him. She pauses to brag about how she outsmarted the prince, she gushes about how pretty and valuable he is, then finally rides him with no foreplay. That way, the scene is more than just sex. It's also a scene where a thief congratulates herself for her latest steal, and it shows that she's bowled over by what she's achieved. Her behavior makes the scene distinct. +-Sex Should Advance the Plot- +An erotic story is a kind of romance story, and in any romance story the characters and their feelings drive the plot. And since sex is often an expression of romantic feeling, it should coincide with turning points in the plot or, better yet, drive the plot. +For example, in the first chapter of Taiyakisoba's story Monsterboy Quest, the main character, a retired knightess on a quest from her cloister, revels in the freedom of trekking through the wilds, and when a monster boy deals her a glancing blow with his aphrodisiac venom, she pins him down and ravishes him with suspicious verve. Not only is it a fun scene to read, it's also a clear sign that the knightess was a poor fit for monastic life and her wanderlust—and regular lust—are still potent. +In reality, of course, people have sex even when it doesn't represent a turning point in their character arcs. But in a story, sexual encounters like that should happen offscreen, because they don't contribute to the plot or characterization. +-Outline The Whole Story, Then Write the Important Parts First- +This is the most important lesson I've learned. +It's most intuitive to start writing story at the beginning, write everything in order and write the ending last. But I find that it's better to write the scenes you're most excited about first, then write the connective tissue between them. That way, you'll get your best scenes out before inspiration fades, and you'll have a better sense of what the remaining scenes should look like. This makes editing easier. +For example, in my story A Symbolic Message, I wrote character bios first, then a general plot, then I wrote some exchanges between the two main characters just to get a feel for how they would play off each other. A lot of this dialogue didn't make the final cut. Next, I wrote a plot synopsis that explained what happened in each scene and why it was important. The first draft of the synopsis looked something like this: +Opening lines to set the tone. +Mel gets off a plane. Establish that he's new in this setting and he's disgusted by the poverty he sees. +He meets the female lead. They form a team. Establish him as brash and easily offended. Establish her as annoyed with him, but patient with him. +They go to the nightclub. He whores himself out. She gets information. +And so on. I went through the skeleton a few times, touching things up, adding details and character beats and writing down what the themes of the story were. Then, and only then, I started writing scenes in full prose. I started with the climactic sex scene, then the scene where the two leads meet, then the opening scene. If I had written the scenes in chronological order, the work would have been slower, more confusing and less engaging. +There's another advantage to writing scenes out of order: whenever I got a kinky idea, I would find a place where I could write it into the story and use it to make the world feel more real. For example, the story was already mostly finished when I came up with the scene where a woman takes her blindfolded boyfriend to be transformed into a monster boy, with him none the wiser. I used that scene to show how, in a world that doesn't value male autonomy, even kind-hearted women will take away men's free will. If I hadn't written a plot synopsis first, I wouldn't have known where to put that scene. +By writing your story in whatever order is easiest, you make the project quicker and more fun. And by starting with a scene-by-scene plot synopsis, you make it easier to make changes and stay on track. The final product will come out more fully realized. +-Examine Your Characters and Ask 'Why'- +If you want a character to feel grounded and coherent, you need to look at every action she takes and ask, 'Why is she doing this?' Here's an example. +Maryanka doesn't like it when her sister smokes. Why? Because she thinks people shouldn't smoke. Why? Because smoking is bad for you. Why does she care what someone else does with her own body? Because Maryanka cares about other people's health, even at the expense of instant gratification. Why? Because other people's lives matter to her. +In the above example, I took something completely mundane—a woman who doesn't like smoking—and connected it to her sense of compassion and her valuing of human health. When building a character, you can start with core values (she feels compassion for others and values human health) and decide what action she takes based on those values (she dislikes smoking). I find it's easier to go the other way. I start by asking myself, 'what does the plot demand this character do?' and then, 'What set of proclivities and values would lead her to do these things?' and I build out her personality and backstory from there. If the plot demands that she do things no consistent human would do, I change the plot. +Whichever approach you take, you'll find it easier to decide what a character will do in a given situation if you are in touch with the core tenets of her personality. +-Examine Your Setting and Ask 'Why'- +The same way a character's actions need to tie into her nature and her deepest convictions, keep in mind that entire societies are products of their history and foundational ideas. Here's an example: +In my home state of Colorado, people drive cars even in densely populated places, and public transport is thinly spread. Why? Because Coloradans prefer cars to busses. Why? Because Coloradans are more comfortable controlling the vehicle they're riding in. Why? Because the state has a highly individualistic culture. Why? Because it was settled by pioneers who considered themselves independent, did not rely on infrastructure and grew their own food, and more recent migrants have picked up that ethos to some extent. Why was the place settled by pioneers and not feudal-style lords or big corporations? Because the Homestead Act determined that the western plains would be settled by individual families. Why? Because in American culture frowns on property that isn't earned through one's own labor. Why? Because the people who settled America from Europe were steeped in the philosophy of John Locke and other 18th-century enlightenment philosophers who emphasized self-ownership. +I don't always take my own advice, but when I do, I get a distinct yet consistent world. This is especially important for matriarchal settings. It's common for a writer to give a matriarchal setting no defining features except the fact that it's matriarchal. This is a mistake, because societies are defined by many things, and which sex is dominant is only one of those factors. Speaking of which... +-Write Matriarchies That Make Sense- +This is especially significant to me, since I write and enjoy stories of female domination, and also because many matriarchal settings I read are unrealistic. +The easiest way to write a matriarchy is to take a patriarchal society, flip the roles and exaggerate them. Settings written this way feel shallow and aren't true to human nature. They ignore the fact that, no matter how humans organize themselves, there are a few differences between men and women that stay the same, such as: +Women can bear children and men can't. When society is hard-pressed to produce more children, women are more valuable than men. +Only Women can breastfeed babies. +A man can pass on his genes by impregnating women, then abandoning them, but women can't pass on their genes without investing time and effort into it. +Men are physically stronger but naturally die younger. +There are also psychological differences between men and women. Although every individual is different, there are some psychological traits that the average man and the average woman exhibit to very different degrees. 'The Truth About Sex Differences' by Psychology Today, provides good examples of this. According to that article, females more often exhibit conformity, verbal ability, empathy, depression and preference for social status in a mate, and more males show impulsivity, risk-taking, physical aggression and task- oriented leadership. Crucially, we know these differences are not products of social conditioning, because they crop up even in completely egalitarian societies. That means these differences would still be present in a matriarchy. +In conclusion, women rule men differently than men rule women, so when you write a matriarchal society, do your research and think carefully about exactly what shape it would take. +Those are the most important things I've learned while writing. I hope you find it helpful." +749,'Sensual' v 'Disciplinary' Spanking,Sir_Winston54,How To,2004-07-24,2004-07-24,2022-01-04 08:24:32,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sensual-v-disciplinary-spanking,A discussion of the differences.,"['Discipline', 'Dominant Submissive', 'Dominants Submissives', 'Period Time', 'Sensual', 'Spanking', 'Submissive']",4.35,"In more 30 years as a practicing (non-professional) Dominant, I've discussed this subject a number of times, with both submissives and Dominants. Some of them had been ""lifestyle"" for many years, some for only year or two, and others were beginners. The topic was: What is the difference between spankings (or flogging, or caning, etc.) of a ""sensual"" nature and a ""disciplinary"" nature? What follows is simply *my take* on a combination of my experiences and those discussions. +To begin the analysis of the differences, let's look at disciplinary spanking (for simplicity, we'll use this one phrase to encompass the entire range of modes of physically punishing a submissive for unacceptable/incorrect behavior, attitude, demeanor). + **DISCIPLINARY SPANKING** +For myself and most of the experienced Dominants I've known, the beginning of disciplinary spanking is to have a certain ""ritual"" quality. The submissive *must* know that she/he is being disciplined, and for what. Without this knowledge, she/he may assume (at least at the beginning) that she/he is receiving a sensual spanking. _**The mindset of the submissive is central to discipline. If she/he doesn't know she/he is being punished, how much can she/he learn?**_ +Step One of the ritual is to separate it physically from the location(s) at which she/he may receive sensual spankings. I tend to ""reserve"" a certain physical location - bent over a particular chair or table, for example - which is *never* - repeat: *never* used for sensual spanking (or sex {unless you use some forms of sex at some times for discipline - I don't}). This concept is analogous to that of a child being sent to the principal's office. With some subs, I have instructed them to go to ""the chair"" and wait for me. Often, she is crying even before I come to her side to begin discipline, simply because she knows she has failed my expectations. +Step Two, for me, is to explain exactly what infraction the submissive is being disciplined for. At this time, she must look directly into my eyes, both for her to see the disappointment in mine, and for me to look for contrition in hers. I believe strongly that for most people the eyes are the most revealing part of our bodies, and the one through which most of us make the most direct connection with others. Unlike some Dominants, I don't require that submissives keep their eyes lowered unless ordered. I *want* that extra avenue of communication. +Step Three is the description of the discipline. I believe that it is important to know, before punishment begins, exactly (or nearly so) what I intend to do. This allows me to avoid awkward pauses in the discipline which can break the concentration of both the Dominant and the submissive. It also allows the sub to contemplate ahead of time what is going to occur, to anticipate it. For me and most of those who have been in D/s relationships with me, that anticipation is a very important part of the discipline. It's almost a doubling of the experience. +The physical punishment is Step Four. It is important to me to follow the description I earlier gave the submissive, because I believe fairness is important in all aspects of the D/s relationship. If I've told her she will receive x number of spanks, followed by x strokes of the paddle or cane, then the fairness explicit in the relationship requires that I follow through precisely. _**I do not believe in trying to ""trick"" the sub, as in requiring her to count strokes (which I do) and then doing something to try to force her to lose count or err in her count, so I can start over. That is not fair.**_ I usually talk about her infraction while spanking, and require her to respond and apologize. This reinforces the discipline, its cause, and her need and intention to correct the error. +If, at the end of the discipline session, I feel it was inadequate to correct the submissive's error... *that's my fault.* I planned her discipline poorly, and will end up having to do it again. As a side note, I don't like discipline. It gives me no pleasure. It is merely a necessity, just as some form of discipline is necessary to teach a child is necessary. Parents don't get pleasure from spanking their children, or ""grounding"" them, or taking away privileges... but they know it's needed, to teach the child how to survive in society. +Step Five is the aftermath. My procedure is generally to have the submissive once again face me, and tell me what her error was, and how she intends to correct it. She then is either sent to her room or to stand in a corner for a specific period of time, to contemplate what she did, why it was incorrect, how it disappointed me, and how she will avoid future discipline for the same thing. For many submissives, being separated from their Dominant, either by space or by His/Her attitude, is as important to the punishment as the physical discipline is. I mentioned a specific period of time for the aftermath; to me, it is crucial that when discipline for a particular infraction is over, it is *over.* Unless an infraction is repeated, it should never be brought up in future disciplinary proceedings. Even then, it should only be briefly mentioned: ""You were disciplined for this just last week. Did you learn nothing from that?"" and then move on to the specific infraction. It happened, discipline has been carried out for that issue, and that specific event is over. Move on. Don't punish over and over and over again for a single error. + **SENSUAL SPANKING** +Sensual spanking is a fish of a different color, to mangle a metaphor. Sensual spanking has a specific goal, as disciplinary spanking does, but that goal is pleasure. For some (true masochists, aka painsluts), the spanking is an end in itself. Sensual/sexual gratification is gained through the physical pain received. +Note: With most true masochists, disciplinary spanking is completely ineffective, and may well result in repeat infractions - she/he has gotten exactly what she/he wants, pain/pleasure, not a discipline that will correct the behavior. With the two painsluts I have worked with, a harsh punishment was to require them to write to me apologizing for the incorrect behavior, describing it precisely, and giving their plan to avoid repetition. Of course, they got no spankings - and thus no pleasure - until their apology letter was deemed acceptable! +Sensual spanking may include certain ritualistic aspects, but it can often be spontaneous. I have spanked (sensually) a submissive in a large restaurant - one quick, firm, *loud* swat on the butt - when I was particularly pleased by something she said as we left the table. After we got out the door, she looked at me with wide eyes and told me that no single action had ever aroused her so much before, and took my hand and put it in her crotch under her skirt. She was sopping wet, and the sex we had when we got home was tremendous. (Thank heaven we lived less than a mile from the restaurant!) +Specific rituals or habits of sensual spanking vary so widely, among both Dominants and submissives, that it is useless to discuss them in detail. Our bulletin board would run out of server space! +The purpose of sensual spanking is gratification, for both Dominant and submissive. It often includes - besides spanking, paddling, flogging, use of crop or cane, etc. - petting and caressing of her erogenous zones, sometimes to the poit of *almost* bringing her to orgasm. And for me and most of the Dominants I have known, it is followed by sexual activities to bring her to one or more completions - and usually, me too. +For those of us who have been fortunate enough to work with a submissive who readily gets into ""sub space"" through sensual spanking, it is a marvelous experience. An example: At the first ""play party"" (aka ""dungeon party"") I took one sub to, she was placed upon a kneeler and I began working her. We had previously established that, since she had never been spanked in a semi-public setting before, I would periodically check on her to determine her feelings. We agreed that if she was happy with what was happening, she would respond with the color code ""green,"" if she was feeling nervous and didn't want to go much further, ""yellow,"" and if she wanted to stop, ""red."" (Of course, her saying ""red"" at *any* time was an instant stop, whether is was when I checked on her or during action.) +The third time I checked her (""Give me a color.""), she turned her head slightly and looked at me. ""What?"" ""Give me a color, baby."" ""Oh.... purple?"" I was flabbergasted! ""Honey, what color - green, yellow, red?"" ""Oh..... greeeeeeeeen. Greeeeeeeen."" She told me later that when I asked her for a color that third time, she was so far into *feeling* what was happening to her, it seemed her mind had completely disconnected, and that she was somewhere far, far away, just *experiencing* it. It was a wonderful thing to happen for both of us, and fortunately, she was able to ""get there"" many times thereafter. +* + _This is *my* brief analysis of some of the differences between sensual and disciplinary spanking from my point of view. Thank you for reading it; I'd be interested in hearing from you - both Dominants and submissives - on points you agree and/or disagree on, as well as added tips or ideas on this subject._" +750,"Save the Cat!? No, Burn the Bitch!",swingerjoe,How To,2016-08-19,2016-08-19,2022-01-04 08:38:03,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/save-the-cat-no-burn-the-bitch,A BTB template for aspiring Loving Wives writers.,"['Btb', 'Burn The Bitch!', 'Guide', 'Loving Wives', 'Save The Cat!? No', 'Template', 'Writing']",4.23,"In 2005, a writer named Blake Snyder wrote a book titled, _Save the Cat! The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need_. It was a guide for aspiring screenwriters, which outlined the elements necessary for creating a profitable screenplay. It included a template that writers could follow step-by-step (or ""beat"" by ""beat"") and create their own blockbuster-worthy scripts. +This book was wildly successful and remains incredibly influential to this day. (Sadly, Snyder was not around to experience most of his book's success, as he died of a heart attack in 2009.) Almost every blockbuster movie that is produced by Hollywood today follows this template -- which is one reason why today's movies all feel alike. A similar template is followed by the screenwriters of television dramas, which explains why every episode of ""CSI"", ""NCIS"", ""Criminal Minds"", etc. has the same pace and similar plot elements. Writing to a template has become the Hollywood equivalent of mass-production. +A while back, I attempted to write a story that followed the _Save the Cat!_ template. That story, _The Third Revolution_ , remains my highest-rated story to date. Although it was fun to write to a template, I found that this exercise restricted my creativity. If I were writing for profit, I would make that sacrifice and ""sell my soul"" for the almighty dollar, given that story's ratings success. Since I write for free, however, I probably won't be revisiting Snyder's template again. +It's plainly evident to anyone who has ever spent time reading stories in the Loving Wives hub that the most highly-regarded and highly-rated stories in that category share a common theme. Quite simply, the stories where a cheating wife receives her comeuppance are, by far, the most popular stories on this site's most popular hub. These stories are affectionately dubbed ""Burn the Bitch"" (or BTB) by their rabid and loyal fan base. +Let's say that you are an aspiring amateur writer with a thirst for praise from anonymous critics. You can construct a sentence well enough, you can spell better than your average middle schooler, and you know the difference between ""there"", ""their"", and ""they're."" You are not, however, particularly creative; therefore the idea of creating a unique work of fiction for this site is daunting. Worry not, my friend. A lack of creativity is not a barrier to enjoying a long and illustrious career as a Loving Wives author. All you need to do is follow my template. +Step One: Establishing the Evil Bitch Wife +Every successful Loving Wives story needs a villain. After all, you can't ""burn the bitch"" without a bitch. Although that second ""B"" in ""BTB"" could theoretically stand for ""bastard"", almost always the villain will be the wife. Why? Because most readers of this site are men. It really is as simple as that. +The wife in your story must be primarily -- almost entirely -- motivated by the pleasurable sensation between her legs. Any love she feels for her husband or children takes a back seat to that primal urge. She simply must be sexually satisfied at all times -- family, husband, commitments, and responsibilities be damned. +She must show disdain, and even contempt, for her husband. She must display an aloof ""take it or leave it"" attitude toward her marriage. Although it's not always necessary, she must belittle and emasculate the husband at every opportunity. It is not necessary, however, to give the wife too much dialog. She should be hated; not heard. The less she speaks, the more the readers can hate her. The last thing you want to do is create a multi-dimensional wife with real human emotions. Save that for the Romance section! +The wife in your story must behave more like your spoiled teenage daughter than your partner. She must be rebellious and defiant when she doesn't get her way. She must be demanding and self-serving. She must act foolishly and carelessly as an irresponsible teen would behave. The more despicable qualities you heap upon the wife's character, the more your readers will appreciate it. They will raise their pitchforks to the sky and demand blood. +Step Two: Establishing the Hero +Obviously, the hero in every BTB story is the jilted husband. Therefore, you need to build a character with whom your readers can easily identify -- not as the type of man they are, necessarily, but the type they wish to be. Your heroic husband should be clever, witty, hard-working, righteous, supremely moral, and -- most of all -- stoic. He needs to be entirely void of emotion throughout the story. Shedding a single tear at any point would indicate to the readers that he is less of a man than he should be. Although some outward displays of anger are tolerated, it's best that you portray him as aloof and unemotional at all times. +You will get bonus points if your hero is or was a member of the military. If you choose to go that route, it will help you to include some sort of specialized training in his background, as that can come in handy later in the story. +Step Three: The Discovery +Every good BTB tale includes some detail (oftentimes vivid detail) of the discovery of the wife's infidelity. Usually, the wife's betrayal is discovered simply because she's so incredibly stupid. Maybe she has her affair in plain sight and is caught by either hubby or a friend. Or maybe she decides to screw her latest Romeo in her marital bed with the door wide open in the middle of the daytime. Or perhaps she leaves her cellphone lying around the house, filled with incriminating texts. +Thankfully for you, you don't need to be very creative with the discovery, as BTB fans don't expect much creativity -- especially during this part of the story. You can even skip over this part, casually mention that hubby strongly suspects his wife of cheating, and proceed straight to the next step. +Step Four: Gathering the Evidence +Once wifey is discovered screaming out some guy's name with her legs spread wide, the next step in the BTB template is for Hero Hubby to gather all the evidence he can for the big divorce/revenge crescendo. Ninety-nine times out of one hundred, this means that you will need to use the ubiquitous high-tech trope. This is where hubby's past training as a Navy SEAL or Green Beret can come in handy. Even if your heroic hubby isn't a former CIA agent, you can always add a ""friend"" of hubby's who just happens to be one, and happens to have the connections and/or access to some high-tech equipment. +With the proliferation and easy availability of advanced technology today, even an average civilian can get his hands on small recording devices, video cameras, GPS trackers, and other useful spying gadgets. When you describe this part of the story, you may want to include some lurid details of the sex scene being captured, as BTB readers do enjoy a good sex scene as long as it's followed by some tasty revenge. Oddly enough, although they despise what they call ""cucks"" who enjoy watching their wives have sex with other men, BTB fans are very tolerant of these descriptive passages of wives and their lovers. +Step Five: Lockdown +The next step in the BTB template is to describe the actions of the Heroic Hubby as he goes about the mundane business of hiring a lawyer, writing up the divorce papers, closing his bank accounts, wiring money into offshore accounts, and doing everything in his power to keep as much of his stuff from his soon-to-be ex-wife. +The purpose of this part of the story isn't to bore your readers to tears (although that will happen), but to showcase how smart and well-prepared your hero is. Again, your goal here isn't to create a realistic and flawed character with whom your readers can easily identify, but to create a flawless character that they wish they could be -- or, in many cases, who they wish they could have been when they went through their own divorce(s). +Imagine sitting at a bar next to some poor bastard who is griping about his divorce, and telling you all the things he wishes he would have done differently. Then, make your heroic husband do exactly that. +Step Six: The Great Reveal +For most BTB readers, this is their favorite part of the story. It is when Heroic Hubby finally confronts his evil shrew of a wife and reveals that he knows all about her affair, and has all the evidence he needs to leave her poor, lonely, and miserable for the rest of her life. It is especially important that you portray your hubby character as being absolutely stoic -- or even apathetic -- during this part of the story. +Yes, this should be a highly-emotional moment, as a lengthy marriage is coming to an end, but you MUST ensure that your husband doesn't choke up or even express anger during this part of the story. The reason is that you must create a stark contrast to the wife -- whose personality suddenly and inexplicably takes a major, 180-degree turn in the next step. +Step Seven: Begging for Forgiveness +Once wifey discovers that she is destined to become a penniless, humiliated, lonely hag for the rest of her life, she immediately morphs into a pathetic, whimpering, puddle of tears. She clings to her husband's leg and begs him to forgive her. If you want to score bonus points, include some of the classic lines like, ""It didn't mean anything to me,"" or ""I didn't mean to do it,"" or ""I made a mistake."" You get the idea. Again, channel that inner teenage girl and imagine what she might say if she were caught coming home after curfew with cum stains on her blouse. +Why would a wife who cared so little about her marriage at the beginning of your story suddenly care so much? It's best not to ask such questions. Remember, your goal isn't to portray a realistic divorce situation; it is to portray a situation as a divorced man wishes it would have been. +Step Eight: Beating the Pillow +You may think your story is over at this point. Wifey is a slobbering mess, after all, and hubby emerges the heroic, yet stoic (always stoic) victor. But there is still more to do if you truly want to earn that coveted ""attaboy"" from the BTB crowd. +You're probably familiar with those scenes from the psychologist's office on TV or in movies where the psychologist hands his patient a pillow and asks him to imagine the pillow is the person who is causing his mental anguish. At first, the patient feels silly berating and beating a pillow, but eventually he lets loose a cathartic tantrum, leaving the pillow a tattered mess. That is your goal for this part of the story. You've constructed your pillow. Now beat it. +Here is where you can employ a bit of creativity, as there can be many ways of beating the pillow. If you've introduced children into your story, you can have the children turn on their mother, pouring salt into her wounds as only children can. +You can also choose to inject a little public humiliation into this part of the story. Maybe Wifey's friends and/or family and/or co-workers are shown the incriminating evidence, for example. In many stories, the wife will lose her job over the discovery of her affair by her employers. (Again, don't worry yourself by questioning the likelihood of such a thing happening in real life.) In other stories, the wife's family is sent a copy of a video (or, in one story I read, actually witnessed the event live), and the entire family abandons her on the spot. +Step Nine: Fight Club +To this point, you've done an excellent job of redeeming the Heroic Husband and completely humiliating and destroying the Evil Bitch Wife, but there is one more crucial checkbox that remains empty. No BTB story worth its weight lets the wife's lover off the hook without a good beating (or worse.) After all, what kind of man lets some other man screw his wife without ""loverboy"" ending up seriously injured, financially destroyed, or dead? Any man who would allow the other guy to get away with it is instantly branded a ""willing cuck"" by the BTB crowd. Trust me -- you don't want that. +This is another part of your story where a background in the military (or perhaps as a professional fighter) would (and often does) come in handy. Don't even allow yourself to consider the possibility that the wife's lover may be bigger than the husband, or a better fighter, or that he served in the Special Forces himself. The lover can be a better lover than Heroic Hubby, but under no circumstances should he be bigger or stronger. That's a no-no. +Here, you may want to repeat Steps One and Eight, but substituting the wife with her lover. At some point in the story, you'll need to establish the character of the lover. That's an easy one. The guy should be at least as evil and amoral as the wife. He should be smarmy and conceited. When introduced to the husband, he should be condescending and provoking. Basically, think of every ""bad guy"" from every 80's movie you've ever seen and double the smarminess. Then, after you've constructed that pillow, beat it until the pain goes away. +Step Ten: The Happy Ending +""What can possibly be left?"" you may be asking yourself. After all, we've established the Evil Bitch Wife, discovered her cheating, gathered the evidence, prepared for the divorce, confronted the wife, beat her to a tear- stained pulp, exacted our delicious revenge, and beat up the bad guy for good measure. What's left? The epilogue, of course! +Every good BTB tale needs an epilogue in order to give the readers closure and assure them that Heroic Husband lived happily ever after, and the now ex-wifey (if she survived) is living a desperate and lonely existence. +This is another easy part to write. Simply have Heroic Hubby end up with whatever other female character you included in your story. If the wife had a sister, that works. If the lawyer was a woman, bingo. The marriage counselor? Why not! Another classic trope is that Heroic Hubby ends up with loverboy's wife. Whatever you decide, whoever hubby ends up with must be much, much hotter than his ex-wife, must be sexually insatiable, and must be more faithful than Mother Theresa. +In real life, the ex-wife would simply move on with her life and find some way to live a happy life without her stoic husband. Don't you dare think of giving your BTB audience a realistic ending! The ex-wife in your story must end up miserable for life. She must never find happiness with another man, she must remain alienated from her friends and family, and she must continue to regret her actions and long for the invention of a time machine so that she can take it all back. If you want to add some STD's and/or drug or alcohol addiction, you'll score extra points. A suicide might get you into the Loving Wives Hall of Fame! +*** +There you have it, aspiring writers. I've practically written your story for you! All you have to do is add some names, and that coveted ""red H"" awaits you! The beauty about this template is that you can use it over and over and over again, and your readers will adore you for it. Simply change the names, and you're good to go! +Since I discovered Blake Snyder's template, it has changed the way I watch blockbuster movies. I now look for the telltale pattern set by Snyder -- and more often than not, I find it. I believe the same can be true of Loving Wives readers and the template I've created above.

You probably clicked on this essay, because you thought 'what the fuck does that have to do with erotica?' It seems like a big subject. Perhaps too big. After all, there are thick books such as the Bible and the Koran that attempt to provide a one size fit all solution that has in fact been used by people to justify some of the most heroic and courageous acts...and some of the most evil. +My intent with this essay is not to start some new religion (as if I could), but rather to share three simple truths that life has taught me. I feel that by asking ourselves the hard questions and following these three steps we can all save the world...and live full lives. So what are these three simple steps? +First of all, decide who/what you are. We all have two natures: one for good and the other for evil. Don't be confused though about evil and what society and religion may see as sinful/wrong. I mean this topic hardly seems appropriate for an erotic website; especially written by a woman that boasts of two-hundred fifty-four lovers, two-sixty if you count same sex. But good and evil are far more complex than simple acts. There hard thing to grasp is the motives of the heart. Any action can be good or evil (except perhaps rape) based largely upon the circumstances of the person. +Wait a minute. Are you saying that even murder can be good? Yes, that is exactly what I am saying. Don't get me wrong here. I am not a proponent of the death penalty or war. But if someone were threatening the safety of my child, I would kill them. Would I just forget it and dismiss it as what I had to do? Hardly, every day I would think about that person; what they might have become, what horrible things may have happened to bring them to that place. But I could live with my actions and accept what I had done. It would not automatically make me evil. +So can I actually claim to be a good person and claim to have had sex with two-hundred and sixty people in a quarter of a century? Yes. Actually, my regrets are not about the people whom I had sex, but a few that I did not. How is that possible? After all, I admit having cheated on both my former partners and struggling to remain faithful even to the husband, whom I love with all my heart. The answer is simple...through it all; I have never purposely hurt anybody (myself included). I was always honest and upfront about what I wanted/needed. Did I hurt people? I am sure that I did; myself included. But the intent was not evil. So I can honestly say I do not have regrets. +Of course, you may ask 'who would choose evil.' I don't think most people mean to do so, but all along life's pathways we are given choices...little and big. In his book, As a Man Thinkth, James Allen postulates ""it is not what happens to us that is important, it is how we react to it and what we do about it that matters most"". The most obvious example is serial killers. If you look at their childhood, most were abused severely. But there are hundreds of other abused children, some of whom have far worse stories, who never become a killer. That person allowed what happened to him to take him down one path while others choose another. +I hope you will take a few moments to look deeply into your heart and honestly ask the tough questions. Why do I do it? Is it because of greed to have the latest thing, be the greatest author or even be better than so-and-so? Or is it because of an attempt, no matter how paltry, to do what is right or good? In fact, I dare say that the worse that we can do is never to ask those questions, but simply act without thought. +So, now you have looked into your heart, what is next? The difficult answer is to keep asking yourself those questions. Every day for the rest of your life. Every choice that you make from now on. Ask yourself...am I being true to who/what I truly am? It is the key to living a life without regrets. In fact, it is the key to living, rather than simply just existing. +Will you do it every day? Will every decision you make be true to yourself? Unless you are Buddha, Jesus Christ or another great prophet, the answer is almost certainly 'No.' There will be tough times when it seems that everything this world has to offer is against you, when you know what the 'right' thing is but simply do not have the energy to do it. But if you know who/what you are then eventually you will find your way back to that path. Perhaps you will have taken a detour, but even then if you have stayed true to yourself then you will find that you have not gone so far off that path that you cannot make your way back to the truth...your truth...whatever that is. +Shakespeare truly did have it right, when Hamlet spoke the words: ""This above all: to thine ownself be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man."" +But perhaps the greatest step of all is the third. For without this final step, you will become nothing more than a self-actualized monk sitting on some mountain top and not doing a god damned thing. In the words of the ancient Chinese philosopher Lao-tzu, 'The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.' +A review of history proves this truth. Every great movement, religion or revolution began with a single act or decision. The American Revolution began with the Boston Tea Party. The civil rights movement began when Rosa Parks was too tired to stand and sat at the front of a bus. Christianity began with a twelve year old boy talking religion with the greatest teachers of the day. +One of my favourite stories is how Muhammad Yunus founded the Grameen Bank and began the micro-credit movement that holds the potential to eradicate poverty, one person, one problem at a time. His story does not begin with a great theory or vision born out of his education as a professor of economics in Bangladesh, one of the world's poorest countries. +It began with a stroll through the local market during a famine. The great professor left his Ivory Towers of academia to meet a poor woman and mother, who toiled all day for two pennies. Yes, two cents to feed, house, clothe and educate her family. She made bamboo stools, but because she lacked twenty cents to buy the raw bamboo needed to make a stool she was forced into indentured servitude to a master, who sold her the bamboo and bought her beautiful product at whatever price he saw fit to give her. She could not break this cycle of poverty...for lack of twenty cents. +Around the village, Dr Yunus discovered dozens of other stories just like this one. So he thought...I am a professor of economics, if I can convince the banks to lend a few dollars then I can help. Do I need to even tell you how futile he found this whole process of trying to convince the banks to loan a few dollars to the poor? In the end, he took twenty-seven dollars out of his own pocket and lent it to that woman and forty others. Eventually they all paid him back with interest. +As a great professor of economics, he continued his struggle to convince the banks of his method. It became an on-going challenge...do it with five villages, do it with twenty-five, do it with fifty. He never did convince those traditional banks to lend to the poor, but out of his personal pocket and faith, he founded the Grameen Bank and the microcredit movement. In 2006, he and his bank won the Nobel Peace Prize. The United Nations and World Bank hold out great hopes for the future of this vision. +Will the simple erotic stories I write here ever win the Nobel Prize for Literature? Maybe not. Will the work that has been a burden on your heart repeat the success of Dr Yunus? Whether it is helping pregnant teens be better parents or providing a coat and blanket to that homeless veteran or simply taking them a bowl of soup, our simple steps may not win accolades or even be noticed. But that one step that you have wanted to take for so long will change the world...one person at a time. Even if that one person is you. Especially if it is you. +What can you do today?" +752,Saving a Life,PrincessErin,How To,2008-05-05,2008-05-05,2022-01-04 08:38:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/saving-a-life,A lesson on cardio pulmonary resuscitation.,['Cpr'],3.96,"There are very few skills that are considered so important that they are a matter of life and death. The following article discusses one of those very important skills. +First aid skills are a very important skill for every person to have. It is not restricted to those that work in the health care field or for those that feel it's important for use with their family or friends. Knowing how to save a life can be used at any time and with any one. +I could go on about all the different types of first aid emergencies and how to treat each type, but I feel it is better if I target one emergency that, without immediate assistance, will cause the individual to die. This emergency is an unconscious person who is not breathing. +Step 1 +The first step is to make sure the person really is unconscious. We used to call it ""shake and shout"", but you don't really want to shake the person. You want to tap the person's shoulders and wiggle their ears to make sure they aren't sleeping. Now if you witness this victim go unconscious then you do not need to do this step. This would be in the case of you entering a scene with an unconscious victim. Taking into consideration the situation is also important. Entering a pool area and seeing someone unconscious on a lounger would probably hint that the person is napping whereas someone unconscious in the middle of your living room probably indicates a problem. +Step 2 +Once you have determined that the individual is indeed unconscious, you need to call EMS. EMS stands for Emergency Medical Services. This is also known as 911 however, there are still pockets of residential areas both in Canada and the United States that are not serviced by 911. Of course, if you are in another country, your EMS number might be completely different. When you call you need to let them know whether you are on a cell phone or not because if you are, they will need an address and call back number. Land lines are normally set up to automatically show this information, but cell phones do not. They will ask you a lot of questions so you don't really need to memorize anything. Once you have called EMS, you can go onto the next step. +Step 3 +Turn the victim onto their back and open their airway. You can do this by pulling their jaw up towards the ceiling with two fingers shaped into a hook. You can also reach in and pull on their tongue, but that's just a little unsanitary. The reason you do this is that someone who is unconscious might have their tongue blocking their airway. They haven't necessarily stopped breathing, but the tongue is preventing air from getting into the lungs. +Step 4 +Put your ear to their mouth and nose and count to ten in your head. During that time you need to look, listen, and feel. You are looking to see if their chest is rising. You are listening and feeling for air on your ear. If the person is breathing just continue to hold the airway until help arrives (remember you already called for EMS). +Step 5 +If the person is not breathing, you will know because in the ten seconds you will not see, hear, or feel any air. If that is the case, you want to plug their nose and after sealing your lips to theirs, you want to breathe in two breaths of your own air. If this is a stranger or someone who might have a disease that can be transmitted through saliva you can skip this step. As a rescuer you should never put yourself in danger. With that said, unless you work in the health care field, you are statistically more likely to do first aid on a friend or family member so this does not concern you. +Step 6 +Once you have given the victim two breaths, you want to push on their chest. As crude as it sounds, you want to put both hands, one on top of the other, right between their nipples. We used to have some very complicated ways of landmarking however this is the easiest way. You want to push down on their chest thirty times in a row as hard and as fast as you can. +This will allow the heart to compress and deliver oxygenated blood to the brain. The longer the brain goes without oxygen the less chance a person has to survive. The most recent statistics show that for every minute that a person has no oxygen they have a ten percent less chance of surviving. That's a huge number when you consider that in most urban areas the response time for EMS is seven to fourteen minutes. +Step 7 +You want to continue this cycle of giving thirty compressions and two breaths until EMS arrives. You don't have to recheck their breathing or anything else. You want to continue because without this they do not have any chance of surviving. +Please be aware that this article is not to replace official first aid training. There are a lot of great organizations that run first aid courses and this should be a starting point for you.

I, on the other hand, can sincerely proclaim both. +Wikipedia Rollinsville. See the general store in the foreground of the embedded photo? There's a small, wooden shack to the right of that ― off- camera ― in which I did the deed with a BBW I met from the Internet, while her husband watched. +Such would've only been an arcane fantasy, had I not taken ― and forwarded ― pictures of my penis to the couple in question. +Had this duo wandered through Denver ― where I resided, at the time ― they would've passed me like a billionaire passes a penny on the street. +Thanks to the magic of photography, however, I was able to display ― and disseminate ― my dong directly into that scant shack, and onto the pair's laptop. +Wild winds whippin' up a blizzard rivaling an arctic winter. Roads closed, due to snow drifts taller than grandpa's claims of a 22 inch cock. Yet, somehow ― in some fucked-up Universe ― my pics found their way to this quaint cottage in the middle of nowhere. +Once they did, the couple with whom I was conversing became doggedly intrigued, as the female portion of the duo began fantasizing about fucking me. Well, fucking my fuck tool, anyway. +Mind you, reaching Rollinsville in wintertime is no easy feat. The switchbacks, in these parts, are reminiscent of Route 66 from Kingman, Arizona, to Oatman. Combine this with the fact you're operating at higher altitude, snow buries everything, and the road to Rollinsville is thinner than an anorexic on a hunger strike. +Tires balding like Travolta, I traversed the treacherous trail in a rust- ravaged 4-wheel truck, that rolled off the assembly line when breakdancing, Rubik's Cubes, and Hacky Sacks were hot. +I felt like Indiana Jones in the fifth installment of the Raiders of the Lost Ark flicks, fashioning a crude cannon from his asshole, and some paint thinner. +Upon parking, I watched a chick ― from what appeared to be the burg's only bar ― drop her pants, expose a perfectly shaved bush, and piss behind my vehicle. Steam arose from her efforts, like exhaust from a turn of the century locomotive. +Intrigued, I nonetheless chose to remain on course, and beat my knuckles on a dilapidated door, inside an enclosed porch filled with battered Big Wheels, and baseball mitts. +The object of my affection answered in a Valentine's Day pink, fishnet bodysuit, indicating I had the correct residence. +I breathed a halitosis-heavy sigh of relief, since it had taken hours ― and ample anxiety ― to get here. +""Hugh?"" the coy cutie coughed, having smoked enough herb to relax. +""Yep,"" I replied, with wit as dull as being on hold for hours. +After small talk — during which we established the duo were newbies to the sportfucking scene — hubby confessed he'd shadowboxed with jealousy a few rounds.

Sarah cooed ― an infant eager to play with a new toy. Crawling off a mattress that looked like it'd been broiled on high, she slid toward my slacks snake, and began sucking more than a death sentence for littering. +Gazing about, I took note of how rustic everything appeared. Brown liquid stains leaked down brown walls, in an overall brown motif. I felt as though I'd been transported back into a Wild West daguerreotype, my hair more slimy than an oil pan. +Nature encroached on this forgotten outpost, as dirt seemed to be alive, and propagate, crawling out of every corner. +Was it even the new millennium inside this shanty? Had I somehow been conveyed to an era pre-deodorant and anus bleaching? +The woman removed her bodysuit ― which hadn't left anything to the imagination, anyway. Laying atop a homemade comforter ― that smelled of liniment and moldy wood ― she positioned herself perfectly for just about anything from a nap, to licking lance. +As such, I straddled the bubbly blonde's face, as she played a lengthy tune on my fuck flute. +Hubby eventually sparked up a bourbon-dipped blunt, opened his fly, and allowed his wife to blow a few bars on his meat whistle. +Spreading the beauty's legs, like microwaved Nutella across crusty bread, I bobbed for apples between her gorgeous gams. +Leaking more than Julian Assange, her cunt was primed for big dick, even before I'd arrived. The poor princess probably spent every moment she could ― while her kids slept ― shoving dirty dildos up her hastily-shaven honeypot, watching gay porn. +As such, I was a prep cook with little to do. +Fitting my fuck falcon for flight, I paid homage to whomever invented the condom, and began probing new depths. +""Oh, Jesus, Billy!

As such, rivulets of sweat rolled off the babe's belly, and into her horny hole, providing even more natural lube. +""Jesus, Billy! I'm gonna cum!"" she flailed, grasping her guy for everything he was worth. Her face turned Fresno Chili red, as she made good on her assertion. +Again, photos! They're imperative!

Upon discovery, your new female friend may find herself impelled to see the goods. Fuel those sexual fires with more combustibles than a dynamite shack! +Become creative.

Distributing these babies, while on first dates, I'd elucidate about my adult film ""occupation."" +A maneuver of this magnitude catches women off guard. Females in this situation almost always take the bait. You're working in a legitimate industry, and you possess business cards to substantiate such. +Gingerly place the ball in their court, so to speak. Dangle the dong in a movie theater, and you run the risk of facing lewd conduct charges. +Produce a superlatively crafted, nude photograph of yourself, however, asserting you perform in adult films, and you've generated an air of mystery. Most women have never made the acquaintance of a male porn actor, although they've attained Earth-shattering orgasms ― in private ― watching naked, endowed thespians. +""My spirit guide told me the fate of humanity depends on you fucking me,"" the completely nude woman caressed my balls in the late afternoon Sun, beside the pool. +""Then you obviously need a new spirit guide,"" I thought. +What I actually uttered was, ""For the sake of the species, I'm happy to help!"" +Smiling, the cheery chick fondled my slit stretcher beneath pants produced before Jimmy Carter postmarked his letters ""1600 Pennsylvania Avenue."" +""He saw your pics online, and told me I needed to get fucked by this huge thing,"" the lass squeezed my slut slayer. +Here in the desert, summer weather was perfect for poolside fucking. +A breeze from the wasteland surrounding us kicked up translucent canopies encircling a pair of cabanas at the swing club. +Beneath the shade of a covered porch, a popcorn maker worked overtime, causing the backyard to smell of cracked corn dredged in liquid butter. +Higher than the ISS, the naked woman gleamed in the brightness of the day.

""That's why I have a spirit guide. He tells me what to do, and I follow his commands."" +""That's cool,"" I responded, really puttin' myself out there, and riskin' it all. +Gesticulating like a diffident child, she playfully bit her lower lip. ""So, um, you're gonna have to instruct me."" +Outside of, ""We've abolished government, and we're now all free,"" they were the only words I wanted to hear. I could deal with domineering women, but doing so was painful, in the same way shitting out a five inch nail would hurt. +""Hop up on the bed, hon,"" I played Babe Ruth, calling at least one shot. +Acceding, the perfectly-proportionate princess slid her succulent butt cheeks upon the mattress I wanted to be, when I was reincarnated. This bed had seen more ass than a political correspondent. +Dropping to my knees, positioning my head between her thighs, I began eating my second favorite food. +Dicks in hand, the cock zombies converged. +Shining the woman's hood ornament with my tongue, I descended a few inches below her cunt, and feasted on my first favorite food. +The sylph squealed in rapture. It was the reaction I was fishing for. This one would cum hard. +Dancing around her Sean Hannity, I stroked myself beneath chinos thinner than O.J.'s defense. Moments later, I stripped bare, and ― as per my usual modality ― left my socks and fuckboots on. +It was meat and potatoes with me. No frills. Call it banal, but if you get tired of blastin' out orgasms, and wanna hump without cumming, head elsewhere. I'd trained myself to fuck, and fuck for days. How else was I gonna put up 5,000 women? +Stretching a mushroom suit over my shaft, I teased the woman's lower lips for a time, without inserting. Simultaneously, I massaged her clit with my lubed thumb. +In the yard next door, some clueless neighbor ― or one who didn't care ― lost a limb to an out-of-control lawnmower. On the opposite side, a female barbequed her cat, dog, or some other pet. Whatever it had been actually smelled pretty good. +It was business as usual outside the walls. Nobody doing anything memorable ― which was the way this paradigm had been designed. Who's gonna recall screaming at Viking, for the 6,000th time, to stop shitting on the lawn? +""Remember when I pulled Sable out of the tree, just like the 7,435,000 times prior? What a fuckin' hoot that was!"" +Such stated, who can forget the time you fucked some sexy senorita, in a Sin City backyard, after her spirit guide commanded she cum on something in excess of nine inches? +When it came to the latter, that would be me. +This has nothing to do with a faulty memory. I'd simply fucked so much, I hadn't been able to keep up with my encounters, when it came to committing them to paper. +Due to the stressful nature of this sick scenario we've created for ourselves, the majority of our time is spent doin' shit we hate. We're constantly racing from one nightmare to the next. Pay this bill; run this pointless errand; race to ""work,"" etc. +Thus, documenting the outstanding portions of our existences ― if there are any ― is overlooked. +A jumbo jet flew above, with perhaps hundreds of passengers aboard it. I wondered if any of them could see me stuffing this beautiful bird with my bawdy baster. +The first few inches went well. As we progressed, however, it became apparent her hole hurt. +I pulled back briefly, before thrusting my entire length inside the woman. +This overt act took her breath away ― which was what I was going for. Unrelenting, I slammed inside repeatedly. She was a late night taxicab ― I took her where I needed to go. This would be her orgasm, but it was all about me. +Increasing speed, while jick balling her with my thumb, I could feel her energy mounting. So much so, I knew this was gonna be the Tsar Bomba of vagi- motor reflexes. +Seconds later, I was proven correct. Arching, the top of her head drilled into the mattress, there were only two paths this could take. Either the chick would contort so far, her spine would split, or― +And that's when it happened! The señorita convulsed.

Or perhaps a new chapter will reveal itself? +This nudge has woken something deep within me. Temptations today. To change or not to change my signature fragrance? +I've stalked this new potential for weeks, resisting its heady tones and notes. A first encounter during a much-needed back massage. The masseuse was wearing this fragrance. It has haunted me ever since. +Now gentlemen, before some of you get the wrong, base idea. It wasn't the lady wearing the scent that did it for me, whilst lying on the couch in a darkened room. It was definitely the scent. And I don't mean her scent. It was not that kind of treatment. It was her perfume, new to me. Goodness how I want it. +Yet there I was today sampling, rejecting, revisiting. In a beautiful perfumery, new to me. Apparently, I have been under a rock to have missed this experience. I used the same methodology with these new perfumes as I do on here. Mused I with an ironic raised eyebrow. +And then I found her. Such an evocative smell. Pomegranate noir. +We ladies do have our signature fragrances. There is the one that makes me feel alive. The staple that people say is very me. One that is just for me on 750TC luxury. Plus, the cheeky one that isn't really me but I wish it were. Then there is the secret weapon. A veritable olfactory orgasm. +Funny how the sense of smell can take us back or wake us up to something new. It's a little like the song you hear on the radio, forgotten but stored away. You know all the words, dragged out of your memory to sing along and reminisce. Who do you think about when that happens, I wonder? Do you send them a provocative message? +I do. Well. The one or two who still make me tighten involuntarily at the mere thought. And the one who wasn't allowed to speak during our afternoons together. I made enough noise for two. A cheeky KIK, a WhatsApp nudge. I never expect a response. In fact, I'd rather he didn't. Just knowing there is a reaction back at the ranch. That's really enough for me. An unexpected trouser twitch to make me giggle. +Another fragrance nudge? The aftershave I smelled on Friday over breakfast. Heady diffusion over the porridge. He will never know what that did to me. Just drinking him in. No touching. A shy smile. An aromatic, musky smell. A contained reaction, trying hard not to move in closer to smell how good he made me feel. Willing him to sit a little closer so I could just be. Shameless hussy. +So, the secret weapon? +Aftershave. Men's fragrance. Eau de parfum strength. Never, never, never eau de toilette. You deserve the full oomph, surely? Ms Hrrera's finest. +I sometimes wear this pleasure treasure at networking events, or as I call them not working events. +The air 'kiss' to greet a long-lost acquaintance. Then, bingo. Discombobulation. Behind the eyes olfactory confusion. I catch a glimpse in the recipient's physog. It really is a sexy, animal instinct-inducing smell. Enough whiff of Ombre to tickle the nasal passages. Hell, I'd f**k myself wearing that. +A little souvenir from a long ago almost forgotten week in Spain. He wore it. And he wore it with such sexual aplomb that I needed a little take away. I wear it very, very occasionally. A now obsolete fragrance that has such hidden dominance. I search fruitlessly online and on Catalonian sojourns, hopeful that it will re-appear. +This aromatic musk can release the inner bi-curious in some. In others, they run a mile discombobulated by the confusing message. The visual says curvaceous confident woman rocking red lip stain, the olfactory says dominant... and oh no.

She then pulls up her right knee to her chest, he also pulls up his right knee horizontally so that his right thigh comes to rest on her left thigh; his left leg passes under her left leg so that he can straddle it with his legs (the last bit is not a must, but this ensures that his penis wont slip out of her vagina during sex which can be annoying, especially when she is just having her orgasm). +This is it as far as the basics go. If left at that, however, it would just be a new position at best, but what´s so special at the scissors position is that it allows the male lover to give his female lover additional pleasure in many other ways while having sex, and this is what he should do if he wants to truly satisfy her. +First of all he has access to her clitoris - if it´s not as prominent or if the cock penetrating her is somewhat in the way, he can place the thumb of his right hand (if he is lying on her right) on the spot where her outer labia end and pull up, that way her clitoris will be drawn up and he will have easier access to it. He then can stimulate it by making small circles on it with his index or middle finger; only apply a little pressure and increase the speed the closer she gets to orgasm (of course it would be good to stimulate her clitoris before entering her, that way she will be wetter and find it more enjoyable; the same counts of course for foreplay). +Secondly, he can use his left hand to play with her nipples by putting his left arm under her head. Her left breast will be easier to reach, but he can also play with her right nipple that way. +Thirdly, this position also allows both partners to kiss while having sex; as an alternative he can also use his mouth to play with her right nipple. +Regarding the climax of both partners: I´ve found out through personal experience that it is very beneficial for the woman if the man penetrates her in a slow rhythm while circling her clitoris, because if he does it in a fast manner, this may interfere with the clitoral stimulation and orgasm build-up. So do it slowly - which will also have the obvious advantage that he wont come before her - but when she is only seconds away from orgasm, he can and probably should piston in and out of her as fast and hard as possible. This will of course not only make her clitoral orgasm more intense, it may or will also cause her to have a vaginal orgasm at the same time, and on top of that, he will often come at the same time or only second afterwards while she is still in the throes of orgasm. + " +756,The Secret to Good Writing,WindyCityMadman,How To,2002-03-11,2002-03-11,2022-01-04 08:40:30,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-secret-to-good-writing,Being your own editor can lead to being a better writer.,"['Good', 'Good Writer', 'Good Writing', 'Spell Check', 'Writer']",3.92,"The secret to good writing is good editing. Okay, now that that's done we'll go out for some beers and... Oh, you want me to explain that? Well, I guess it might need some elaboration. Hold on, let me get out of my leather jumpsuit and put on my tweed smoking jacket. Where did I put that damn pipe, anyway? Ahh, there we go. Now... +If you are reading this article, you're interested in being a better writer, either that or you hit the wrong line on the index. Hey, Fred! The ones about animals are under Extreme, not How To. Good, now that Fred's gone looking for his beloved sheep stories we can get down to brass tacks. +Writers fall into two categories: writers who believe that editors are soul- sucking demons from the pits of hell, born to deny us the freedom to express ourselves the way God, Goddess, Divine Krishna, etc. planned for us; and good writers. Actually, a lot of good writers believe the same thing about editors, because they are soul-sucking demons... Wait, breathe in, and breathe out, in, out, there much better. +""Writers"" come from the intellectually snobby, yet stupid school of ""I'm a WRITER, if I wanted to be an editor then that is what I would do."" Good writers on the other hand believe that if they do the editing then there will be one less thing to pick apart and this is true, it also makes for a better story. Example, one of my pet peeves are typos (that and spiders, ohh and those strange little seed things at salad bars and that idiot on the bus... whoops back on track) Where was I? Oh, yes; typos. A lot of writers who write for pleasure, heck a lot of writers that write professionally, just use the handy little spell check under tools on their word processor. This is generally a good idea, I even use it myself, except for one thing; that spell checker is dumber than a bag of hammers. I'll prove it. Write two sentences, change a word in one of those sentences to a homonym (No, Fred, that is not a nym that is aroused by other nyms, will you get back to your sheep already?) For instance: This person had bad intentions. This parson had bad intentions. The first is just a general descriptor, the second is a specific descriptor. Heck, I was fifteen before I knew a parson was a priest, not some type of fish. There is nothing that ruins a story more than cruising along at a good reading speed, suddenly WHAM, you run into that brick wall of a missed misspelling. The reason the writer needs to do this is that a lot of editors have fallen into the same sloppy habit of just using that spell check thingy too. Who has the greater responsibility to their readers, the writer or the editor? Right the first time. Good, you're catching on. (Not you, Fred, personally I think you need a prison term, not a writing class.) +Another way for a good writer to edit their work is to, drum roll please, READ it! I can hear you now, grumbling in the back. ""Of course, I read what I write. I love what I write. I have to read it while I'm writing it, right?"" (Confusing writing that last sentence. Please allow me a brain break here. Okay I can press on) +Reading a story while you are writing it is not a good way to read it. You have ideas about where you want to take the story, what you want characters to say, etc. The best way to read it is finish the story, wait a week and come back to it. All sorts of things will pop out at you, if you sit there saying to yourself ""Why the hell is this dude dressed only in yellow chicken feathers?"" chances are your readers will sit there saying the same thing. +Polish your story, (no Fred, polish not Polish, I know I capitalized it the first time but it started the damn sentence and if you tell me one more time about how long it took you to get that sausage out of there, I'll have to have you shot) treat your story like the loved one that it is. Does this action need better motivation? Does that paragraph need pruning? Am I too verbose there? Do I use too many six dollar words, when ten cent ones will work? And just why the hell is that dude dressed only in yellow chicken feathers anyway? +All of these things show through in the final product. I mean tell the truth, which car would you rather drive; a Porsche Boxster, or a Yugo? Which one has quality workmanship just screaming from it? Now, don't deluge me with photos of your customized Yugos, but as always I would welcome your feedback. +Oh, quick note, the best way to become a good writer is to have fun doing it, if it's not fun then why do it?

Please take a moment to make your voice heard and vote at the end of this essay.** +\----- +Lately all anyone can talk about is ""The Secret."" (If you haven't heard about ""The Secret,"" yet, you've probably been really busy, huh?) But remember back in the 80's, when the big topic was the ""Superwoman"" syndrome? It seems like these ""hot topics"" come and go, in waves, doesn't it? It's almost a natural progression of our patriarchal culture, two steps forward, one step back... +But the more I think about it, nowadays, I feel men are getting the short end of the stick when it comes to the patriarchy. We all know women have been suppressed by living in a patriarchal society... but it isn't _just_ women. Both genders are effected, and not always positively. Now that women have become more vocal about the ""Superwoman"" double bind of going to work and taking care of the house, who do we expect to pick up the slack? Our partners, of course. But what affect is that having on our relationships? Ah, that's where ""The Secret"" comes in... +I had a girlfriend of mine email me recently with this question (and yes, I have her permission to use it here): + _""I don't get the kind of emotional support I want from my husband and it only seems to get worse as time goes on. I just do different things to distract myself from it most of the time. I just keep busy. Is it possible for a woman to ever be satisfied with the amount of emotional support from a man?""_ +What do we women really expect from our partners? Even the word ""partner"" connotes equality. Modern woman wants a man who is at least as good a provider as we are, who can split everything half and half—pick up the kids at daycare every other day, stop at the grocery store, help cook dinner, clean up, put them to bed, and then, when CSI is turned off for the night... what? Listen to our various trivialities of the day and then, if we're not too tired, be at least somewhat of a tiger in bed? +So I asked my friend, ""What do you really want in a partner?"" It's a question I had to ask myself, once upon a time. Fortunately, I now know what I want. I've been very clear on it for some time—since my divorce. (Funny how those young, starter marriages give you a good clue about what not to do in a relationship!) What is it that we have an intimate partner for in the first place? What role do they fill that _no other person in our lives can?_ Is it as a friend? Someone who gives us emotional support? +Or is it a lover? +I know my answer. Only you can answer the question for yourself. There are a lot of relationships out there that work quite well just as equal partnerships. People are simply parents together, or the best of friends, and it works. It's a marriage of convenience, or based on mutual interest. They have sex, certainly, as a release, as a physical connection, and it's good. (What's bad sex, though, really? It's like bad chocolate...does it really exist?) If you want that kind of relationship and are happy in it, then you don't even have to bother reading on. You have what you want already. But if, like my friend, you want more, you're just not sure what's missing, then this little how-to might be able to help you out, or at least point you in a direction you hadn't considered. +The first law of personal growth is: I can't change someone else, I can only change myself. There is nothing you can do to change a partner who isn't doing what you think you'd like them to do, but there is a lot you can do to change you. The good news is, when we change ourselves, the world is forced to change around us. Changing yourself is, in effect, the only way to change anyone else or whatever situation you find yourself in. +So the first question is: Do you really want the change? It's a really hard question to answer, because of course we'll say, ""YES""... but if that were so, wouldn't we have done something already? Most of the time we're afraid—afraid of what might happen, because we have no control over the outcome, only our response. It might help to sit with whatever fears you have and really decide if change is what you want. +The next question is: What lengths are you willing to go to? Because remember, this isn't about your partner, it's about you... so how deep are you willing to dig? And what are you willing to do and offer of yourself? +Once you get past those questions, now you need to examine what it is you really want. My friend said what she thought she wanted: ""Emotional support."" That's what she said she was longing for her from her partner. But it's funny, because that isn't what I really heard. +I heard, ""I have a hole I want him to fill."" What tipped me off? She said: ""It only seems to get worse as time goes on. It seems like I just do different things to distract myself from it most of the time. I just keep busy."" So keeping busy fills the hole... except that we all know, it really doesn't. It's just—as she says herself—a distraction. +So I asked her, and I ask you, to consider that you might be relying a lot on your partner to fill a role they weren't meant to fill. I will also concede that your partner has probably abdicated the role they _were_ meant to fill in your life, as well. So how does something like this happen? How does it get so muddled and confused? +A lot of the time when we do personal growth work, we move into this space of being ""balanced"" in ourselves. Those two polar opposite parts of ourselves, the yin and yang, masculine and feminine, become balanced. When that happens, you find that you lose passion in relationship. Why? Think of a magnet... opposites attract. Someone has to be carrying the feminine energy, someone the masculine, or the magnets will just sit there and do nothing. When you have two balanced people, you have no polarity, and hence, no passion. +Now, in the case of relationships, it's a fairly common occurrence for most women (not all, but most) to make a connection between sex and emotion. It's very hard for the feminine to separate sex and feeling, because on a physical level, she is the receiver. She must open herself, make herself vulnerable, to be entered by the masculine. Men, on the other hand, don't have to open themselves in the same way. For the masculine, sex doesn't _need_ to have any heart connection at all. +(And when I speak of masculine and feminine, I am talking about the archetypal energy, rather than gender. Men can have a primarily feminine energy, and woman can have a primarily masculine energy... and that can change, over time, or by choice. But for the sake of this piece, I'm just making the overarching statement that most men have a masculine core and most women have a feminine one... forgive me the small generalization for the sake of argument.) +So of course, the feminine will _say,_ ""I don't get the kind of emotional support I want from my husband."" But is that what she really _means?_ Honestly, I don't think so. But the feminine may never have even experienced what she's missing, may not recognize it or know how to vocalize it—although I would bet she's dreamed of it, fantasized about it, and would feel it resonate with her on a visceral level. Kind of like a twist on the Supreme Court Justice's definition of pornography... she would know it when she _felt_ it. +Now, what my friend, and a lot of women, look to fill that hole with is making your partner into your best girlfriend—someone to listen to you, someone to talk to, someone to confide in... but is that _really what you want?_ I know it isn't what I want in a man or my marriage. And granted, it took me a long time to realize what I wanted. For a while, I could only identify what I _didn't_ want. That was the first step. After a lot of soul-searching and experimenting, I've finally come to know what I do what. +I want a man who will take me deeper than I can take myself. I want a man I trust, someone I can really surrender to, who will be the masculine center that my feminine can flow around. Listen, I have best girlfriends I can talk to about my day or exchange gossip with, and I have women's groups that I can talk to about my ""issues..."" but frankly, none of them can do for me what my husband does. +What's that, you ask? +Well, think about intimate partnerships. What does a marriage or intimate partnership offer you that no other relationship can? +Ok I'll spell it out... s-e-x. That's right. I'm not talking insert Tab A into slot B superficial gratification, which is really nothing more than masturbation with a partner. I'm talking about deep, open, heartfelt, soul-to- soul connection. It doesn't even have to involve orifices—just connection. That is so often what our feminine hearts are longing for, and we just don't know it. And if we do know it, we're afraid to ask for it. We're afraid it's too much, so what do we do? We settle. We decide to make our husbands into safe little girlfriends... which only confuses them and hurts us. +I would take five minutes of my husband's undivided full-on presence—just a simple moment of being pressed up against the wall and told how beautiful I am and how much he wants me, and how he is going to take me tonight—over 2 hours of movie watching and hand holding and chit chat about what we did all day. Believe me! Think about it for a minute. Which would you rather have? +For me, just the thought of that against-the-wall moment makes my knees weak and my heart beat faster. The thought of the movie and the chit chat? Hm. Not so much the same reaction. Sure, I get the warm fuzzies when I think about that part—but I can go to the movie with a friend. +Now, that's not to say you can't be friends, or even business partners, with your spouse or intimate partner. The problem comes when that's all you are, and you forget how to activate the passion in your relationship. It can happen, if you spend day after day, two magnets with no polarity, side by side. But if you're the kind of woman who wants to be pressed against the wall, who wants to feel his breath in your ear telling you how much he wants you, then read on... +How do we get what we want? +First, you have to create polarity again. The good news is, all it takes is creating the opposite pole in yourself. In our patriarchal society, most of us spend our time radiating masculine energy. We spend our days organizing, multitasking, focused and directed in our jobs. We come home and continue that pattern, directing children with homework, taking care of the daily tasks in a similar businesslike fashion. So, in most of our relationships, we have two masculine poles that actually often repel one another—a lot of confrontation and butting of heads. +If you're a feminine woman, and you want a masculine man as a lover... start radiating the feminine. I don't mean dressing up in lingerie and prancing around the house (although it wouldn't hurt!) but I mean finding that part of you that is SHE... Yes, the all-capital archetypal Feminine. How can you manifest Her, live Her, let Her flow through you? A woman in her feminine walks as if the world swings on her hips, and love flows from her fingertips. I would bet She has come through you, dancing around the house or singing while putting away the dishes. You'll recognize Her, because your body will relax... you'll suddenly remember you _have_ a body. +The feminine is the world, the body—so breath and movement become paramount, and everything, simply _everything you do_ can be an offering of love— from the laundry you fold, to the meal you set at the table, to the music you choose to put on the radio, to the clothes you wear, to the words you choose to say. The feminine is about pleasure—so relax, breathe, and really feel the pleasure of being alive in the moment. Experience and use the pleasure of touch, music, dance. Spend time in nature, Gaia, the ultimate feminine. Bring nature into the house in the form of flowers and seashells. Spend time in your own joy, in play, expanding your heart as big as it will get. And then, give that to your partner. +Now, I don't mean it always has to be happy-happy-joy-joy, and you can't get angry or feel what you really feel... in fact, giving your primary emotion in the moment is the most precious feminine gift you can possibly give. You are, in fact, the most attractive to the masculine when you are at your most open and vulnerable. Expressing your feelings is the cornerstone of intimacy, and blocking them, in turn, blocks intimacy. That means hurt feelings, too. Whatever they are. Express them. Your feelings are your heart connection, and that is the feminine's gift to the masculine. It gives him a way in to join with you that he doesn't always necessarily know how to do during intimate moments. +If you want polarity, you have to allow your masculine partner (of whatever gender!) to lead. It's like dancing. If you're going to take the masculine role, you will either have a confrontation and struggle, or he will simply give up and let you lead. So if you find yourself expressing a lot of masculine energy, try bringing it back to your feelings. Instead of saying, ""Put more wood on the fire,"" simply hug your arms over your chest, shiver, and say, ""I'm cold."" Instead of saying, ""I want to go home,"" just look at him and say, ""I'm so tired."" Go ahead and ask a man which would motivate him more... and which inspires him to be more masculine with you. +The other thing you can do is stop talking so much. Try communicating nonverbally with your partner for at least an hour every day. You can still talk about what the kids did, what you did, how your day was, but make sure it stops at a certain point. You can even make it a clear delineation—do something to get yourself into the feminine space. Go take a bubble bath while he meditates or reads for a half an hour. And then come back together, with no words, and really connect. Give him all of that feeling—just do it with your eyes, your hands, your mouth. You'll be amazed how quickly things turn from tepid to hot! +Polarity and attraction isn't a mystery—it's really just basic physics. Opposites do, indeed, attract. Equal partnership is a great thing, and we've come a long way, baby, when it comes to balancing our inner and outer masculine and feminine energies. So much so that, when we choose, we should be able to relax into one or the other, for the sake of our partner, ourselves... or just for love itself. +So if you're a woman who wants more from your partner, there are definitely things you can do to change the situation, and they all involve changing the only person you can change—yourself. I have four simple little ""rules"" I follow every day with my husband. He doesn't know about them and he doesn't need to know. This is about me, not him. But it has simply transformed our relationship and our life together. +1\. Be respectful. Listen to him without criticizing, insulting or correcting him. Don't attempt to control him by telling him what to do, say or how to do it. For example, telling him how to fix something and when. If you need something done, tell him how you feel. If I need the lock on the door fixed, I don't say, ""Fix the door,"" I say, ""I'm worried about that lock. I don't feel safe."" +2\. Indulge in self-care by doing things that make you feel good. You can't give anything if your tank is empty. You need to recharge your own battery! I always feel like giving so much more when I've taken time to indulge in something pleasurable just for myself. +3\. Be grateful. Accept his gifts in any package they come—even if it is not the gift you were expecting! Especially at first, thank him profusely for even the smallest things. +4\. Be vulnerable. Admit when you are hurt and don't cover it up with anger. Instead of tell him to stop watching TV or working so late, I just say, ""I miss you."" And do this, preferably, _at the time you are feeling it._ Don't wait an hour, or two days. Do it now, in the moment, or it's not effective. +Now, of course, all of the above is a guideline for women who want to re- polarize their relationship, since I was prompted to respond to my girlfriend's question. But what if you're the one with a primarily masculine core, and you want to add spark back into your relationship? It's the same, really—only opposite. Go figure! You need to start emanating masculine energy. +What does that look like? First, know your purpose and follow it. I could write a whole essay on this one, but basically it comes down to aligning your life and heart with your mission and following that goal. Feminine energy wants to know that the masculine will be solid and trustable, enough to hold her flow. So like riverbanks for her rushing stream, as the masculine, you need to be solid in your life, your goals, your purpose, your mission. If the feminine can't trust you to know who you are and where you're going outside of the bedroom or outside of your relationship, how can she trust your masculine guidance and direction in the bedroom or in your relationship? +After that, it's about reclaiming your right to be masculine (which is often sadly squashed in our culture) and then cultivating your masculine energy. More easily said than done. So if the feminine is about relaxation, beauty and openness... the masculine is about linear, focused direction. If you want to cultivate masculine energy in your life, start using a planner. Schedule your day. Set goals for yourself and your family, and continually realign them with what your heart tells you to do. Guide your life from your highest sense of good, and do it with the most integrity you can muster. All of this will go a long way toward helping the feminine in your life trust that you're going to be able to stand in her storm. +Because that's all the feminine is, you know. It's weather. It's the natural flow of energy all around us. When it's manifesting itself in the female body, it's no different than the sunshine on your face, or the breathtaking beauty of a rainbow, or the power of a thunderstorm. The masculine stands in the storm and lets it flow around him. Can you feel the sexual metaphor in that? It's exactly what happens when two bodies join together in physical union, when one is radiating feminine energy and one is grounded in masculine energy. The masculine longs to join with the intimate, feminine force of the universe, and the feminine longs to be penetrated by the laser-like precision of masculine consciousness. (And if you don't see the sexual metaphor in that one...) +Just as the feminine often doesn't differentiate between sex and emotion, the masculine doesn't often differentiate between feminine beauty. The feminine is all beautiful to him, and he appreciates each flower in the garden. When men see a beautiful woman, they have a visceral, physical reaction. For the feminine, she usually has to be moved emotionally to also be moved sexually, but that's not so for the masculine. He is moved sexually by physical beauty—it's a totally natural masculine response. The thing about this is that it doesn't need to be literalized. A mature man can enjoy a beautiful, young female form in the same way he would enjoy a sunrise—let the energy wash over and through you. It doesn't mean the mature masculine needs or wants to have sex with every woman they see, no more than they want to climb every mountain or pick every flower. +The masculine brings some very unique aspects to relationship that are necessary for creating and maintaining polarity. If the feminine teaches the masculine about life—she reminds him of the world, the joy, the softness, the feeling of it—then the masculine teaches the feminine about perspective. The masculine sees a source to life that is far greater than the events or happenings in it and the little dramas we play. Here we are, essentially, these little ants, not more than specks of dust floating through the cosmos, and yet we think everything that happens in our little lives is oh-so- important. How absurd is that? So the masculine can gift that perspective to the feminine—in the form of humor. +The masculine can open a woman like a flower with just a little bit of humor. His brand of wit can slice right through the feminine's mood. Have you ever been with a woman and turned the tide of her sadness or anger with one silly remark? My husband does this to me all the time. I'll be pouting about something that seems so enormous to me, and he'll come in, tilt my chin up and kiss me and say something truly wacky, and I can't help but laugh. It lifts me immediately out of the moment. Okay, how important is it, really, that I forgot to tape American Idol? I have to ask myself. What a gift of perspective! +So what are the things that a man can do in a relationship to help bring the passion back? It's not bringing her flowers, it's not singing her love songs, and it's not romantic walks on the beach at sunset. Those are all feminized versions of romance—things the feminine draws the masculine into, but not something for the masculine to initiate, if that makes sense. If you're the one grounded in masculine energy, there are four simple things you can do to help her trust that she can let her feminine energy go, so she can be vulnerable and open herself up to you—and men know there's nothing more beautiful or desirable in the world than a woman who is opening herself up to you. +1\. Tell her she's beautiful. Mean it. Find specific things about her to admire. And if there's something you don't approve of, or want her to change, praise her. So instead of saying, ""Hon, I think you're putting on some weight,"" (*wince*) say, ""Wow, baby, you're so sexy when you're doing yoga,"" or ""Damn, your ass feels so much tighter since you've been working out."" The feminine thrives on praise. Try this technique and see if she doesn't start working out like a fiend and have the tightest behind in the neighborhood in no time! +2\. Let her flow—don't ask her to be rational and logical. If you wanted to be with another linear thinker, wouldn't you be with a man? Let the feminine be what it is... she's the weather. Let her do her thing, help open her with humor if you feel you can or should, and then simply stand in her storm or bask in her sunshine. +3\. Say what you mean and do what you say. This includes the big things and the little things. This is important, because the masculine needs to be trustable for the feminine to feel she can open and be vulnerable. (Remember, she needs to feel safe to open herself sexually, too.) If she feels she can't trust you to do even the small things—for example, if you said, ""I'll take the garbage out in the morning, honey,"" but it's still sitting there after you've gone to work—how can she trust you when it comes to the big things, like sharing her body and heart with you? +4\. Don't obey. The feminine doesn't want you to do what she says. The feminine wants you to listen to her feeling, with your heart, and act from love. She wants you to do what's right. The feminine wants your guidance and direction, into a place deeper than she can take herself. Why else would she be with you otherwise? So take her feeling into account, but don't do what she says all the time, simply because she says it. The feminine loves to test the masculine this way, and she will, often. You'll get lots of practice, I promise. +So whether you're primarily masculine or feminine, there's a lot you can do to re-ignite the fire in your relationship—you just need to have the right tools. I know it's hard to rediscover the initial passion you once had together when your primary goal, as partners, is either to raise a family or build a nest egg for some far off retirement, but there is a way to get that feeling back. There's no need to look for it somewhere else (the grass is always greener syndrome) or to settle for not having it at all. It's simply a matter of knowing how to apply the law of physics—the law of attraction—to your relationship. It's really no ""secret"" after all. + **\-----** +Please remember, this is an official entry into the 2007 Literotica How-To Contest. Please take a moment to vote. You have until May 29, 2007 to make your voice heard." +758,Seducing a Brainy Chick,al_Ussa,How To,2009-02-22,2009-02-22,2022-01-04 08:38:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/seducing-a-brainy-chick,"Ten steps to impress an intelligent, cultured woman.","['Dating Advice', 'Dating How-To', 'Smart Women']",4.36,"So, let's say you've got your eye on someone. She's pretty, she's funny, and most of all, she's smart. Sounds good, right? The only problem is, you don't stand a chance. Perhaps you lack social skills, or maybe you just don't think you are all that interesting. But fear not, because I'm here to offer you advice learned over a lifetime. Most of it earned the hard way, through trial and error. I don't promise to make you the next Don Juan or Giacomo Casanova, but after reading this you should have all the tools you need. The rest is up to you, and the Fates. + **Why a Smart Chick** +I suppose the first question we should address before going any further is 'why do you want a smart chick?' After all, there are no shortage of vapid, brainless bimbos out there who will put out for almost anything that moves. Well, I can hardly presume to speak for you, but in my experience, that gets old very fast. I would much rather have an intelligent, mature woman with whom I can discuss culture, news and politics than some random piece of ass. Brainy girls also tend to be surprisingly adventurous when it comes to sex as well. And, last but not least, girls always look hot with glasses. + **What Smart Chicks are Looking For** +This is another pertinent issue which needs to be addressed. Unfortunately, there is no straight forward answer to this one, because it will vary from woman to woman. Some women are looking for a stable, long-term relationship. Others are just looking for a casual fuck, or a piece of eye candy they can take to the theatre, gallery openings or lectures. Fortunately, what gets their attention is usually pretty consistent -- intelligence, intelligence, intelligence! I can't stress it enough. Smart chicks are going to go for smart guys! They want someone who can hold a conversation and follow their interests, and with a little work, that might be YOU! +So, with that in mind, here is some advice. + **1\. Know the Terrain** +Heraclitus of Ephesus said 'Γνώθι Σεαυτόν' -- 'Know Thyself!' However, in this case, knowing the woman you want to seduce is equally important. Now, I don't mean stalking here. In fact, that is probably the last thing you want to do, and will probably (quite rightly) drive women _away_ from you. But, before you make your move, you should probably know at least something about the woman you want to seduce -- what does she read, where is she from, what is her career... These are all pertinent things to know, and you should try to remember everything she tells you when you start flirting. + **2\. Art & Culture -- Things You Should Know** +This is where the first step comes into play. Learn as much as you can about culture! The best way to do this is to experience it for yourself -- go out there and read, visit museums and libraries and art galleries, see plays and concerts, frequent night clubs and theatres, surf the internet! Try and build up as broad a base as possible, but at the same time, you want to familiarize yourself with her interests. But don't limit yourself to that. It's important to know what she likes, yes, but it is equally important to show her you can think for yourself, and to that end, you should have a very broad base of knowledge. +Now that you've built up some familiarity with fine culture, you should be able to hold your own end in an intelligent conversation, going out to lunch at a fancy restaurant, or taking her to see a play or concert. Remember, no knowledge is useless. If you become an expert on some esoteric field such as Byzantine hagiography, Japanese Noh theatre, or 20th century Polish literature, then you have a potential topic to pique her curiosity. Good for you! +Just one little caveat... The internet is a great resource for finding out information. But, never, ever try to describe something she is interested in using terms that you found through Wikipedia or Amazon.com. She knows the stuff, and odds are she has read those reviews... she may have even _written_ them. You'll just wind up looking like a boorish idiot or a creepy stalker and she'll avoid you from then on. Much better to just read it, watch it or listen to it yourself and form your own opinion! + **3\. First Impressions** +You only get one first impression, so make it count. Now, if you know her from some place -- maybe she goes to school with you or is a co-worker -- then you already have an easy in. It's best to try showing you are intelligent, well- spoken and hard working before you make your move, but it's not necessary. For someone you don't already know, striking up a conversation can be a little harder. Maybe you want to score with the barista? Try making some small talk when she's taking your order, maybe even try to be a regular customer. What about a woman on the train? Make a comment about the author of the book she is reading. +These are relatively arbitrary suggestions, but the main point is that unless you are completely lacking in social graces, you should be able to think of some way of striking up a conversation without coming off as a stalker or serial rapist. Just remember, you want to make a good first impression. Don't sound too artificial or prepared. Try and be casual. Also, if you have the luxury of planning your meeting in advance, try and look your best. Fix your hair, wear deodorant and nice clothing. That sort of thing. Like I said, this sounds pretty basic, but it still bears going over anyway. + **4\. Dress to Impress, Dress for Success** +Whether it's right or wrong, we live in a society that judges people by the way they look, and in this case, you are going to want to look your best. Now, the last thing the world needs is another bleach-blonde metrosexual yuppie running around trying to be trendy. What you want to do is dress nicely, to show your independence and (hopefully) power. Don't dress like the masses; try and stand out. This does not mean go to an office meeting dressed as a clown, but try and look sharp, unique and better than everyone else around you. After all, you _want_ to be noticed, you _want_ to stand out. +Worth mentioning here, depending on your age and background, you may or may not be able to get away with some things. Younger people, as a general rule, can stand out much more with trendy youth styles, but older men are going to look... well, pretty sad or pathetic. Women are not turned on by mid-life crises. Ethnic and religious wear can get you some mileage, but it depends on various things too. In the end, tailor your needs to the woman you want to impress (pun intended) and try and look your best whenever she is around. But try not to make it too obvious either. + **5\. The Language of Love** +Agape! Hob! Amor! Szerelem! Eshgh! Cinta! No matter how you say it, knowing the right words can go a long way. Learning a second (or third, or fourth, etc) language is a very nice way to impress a chick. It can also be a convenient way to strike up a conversation. Certain languages are likely to get more mileage than others... The Romance languages like Italian, Spanish and French have long been considered 'languages of love,' while Greek and Latin hold a certain air of learning in the West (as does Hebrew for many Jews). Further flung languages like Arabic, Chinese, Persian, Hindi and Russian are sometimes labeled 'exotic' and have their own rich literary traditions to quote from. +Yes, I said quote from. You didn't think that 'culture' applied only to the Anglophone world, did you? Being familiar with the works of Rumi, Mickiewicz, Homer or Tagore goes a long way. Especially if you can actually _read_ the original! More contemporary venues such as Bollywood, Iranian cinema, Mexican soap operas and Cantonese pop music are also useful. And, it's always fun to take a girl to an 'ethnic' restaurant and order in the native language. Any big city should have French, Italian, Chinese, Greek, Indian, Mexican, Ethiopian and dozens of other regional cuisines to sample, depending on your tastes. This applies to English language as well, so build up your vocabulary guys. +Special mention should be made for those who are seducing a woman who speaks the language in question. If you familiarize yourself with her language and culture, you are very likely to impress her. Even if you don't speak the language as well as she does (and, quite honestly, you probably won't develop fluency right away) it still is a meaningful gesture. Women tend to be very impressed when an outsider learns an ethnic language like Cantonese, Arabic, Yoruba, Gaelic, Yiddish or Vietnamese for their sake. + **6\. Less is More** +Abraham Lincoln is quoted as having said, ""Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."" Sound advice. Although you want to be noticed, you also want to be somewhat mysterious. It makes you seem wise and enigmatic. So don't just sit in corner nodding in agreement with whatever other people say, but at the same time, don't tell her everything about yourself. Listen to her, add some commentary and hope that she thinks you are much smarter than you actually are. This advice, incidentally, can be applied fairly well to other arenas too. + **7\. Always Have an Opinion** +Just because you are mysterious does not mean that you are boring. In fact, if all goes right, everything you say should have more of an impact (or at least _seem_ ). It is important that you always, always, _always_ have an opinion on issues. To do that, you should probably read a newspaper or listen to talk radio, but don't blindly parrot what other people have said. You should be able to always take a rational, meaningful side on an issue (meaning that you should be able to actually _defend_ your position if called out), even if you don't actually care about it in real life. +Now, you need not always agree with her. In fact, sometimes disagreeing with someone can be a good way to strike up conversation and get their attention. But, at the same time, don't pick fights you know you can't win. Talking about abortion, for example, will not win you many friends if you take the 'wrong position' on the issue. These hot button issues are going to vary from crowd to crowd, so use your judgment. The only universals are really obvious ones. No intelligent woman is going to have much respect for someone who goes around supporting Nazi ideology and denying the Holocaust, for example. + **8\. Be Eccentric** +Be eccentric. Be weird. Be kooky. A few peculiarities here and there will only add to your mystique. When I say this, of course, I mean small but distinctive things. Perhaps tell her you adhere to some small superstition, or have a preference for some rare food or drink. Maybe you sign your name in an odd way, have some sort of exotic pet, or wear a distinctive piece of clothing. These things are harmless, but they make you stand out (see above) and keep you in someone's mind. Now, when I say this, I mean eccentric. I don't mean insane or retarded. You are looking to be charming, artsy or even kitsch. You aren't looking to be creepy... Don't go around eating raw meat or dressing in a sailor suit. You want to fascinate her, not make her think you are a serial killer or escaped mental patient. + **9\. Cultivate Harmony** +Many religions, especially the more Pantheistic ones, stress a sort of harmony with nature. For the more literal thinkers, it simply means don't be an asshole. Try to be compassionate to animals and polite to other people. You don't need to go so far as, say , stop eating meat, but don't be mean to animals. Or children for that matter. And, for that matter, it doesn't hurt to hold the door open for women or help old people cross the street. Donating to the appropriate charities can impress her too. You don't need to become a Bodhisattva, but just show her that chivalry isn't dead. +Speaking of spirituality, it can be good to have yourself grounded in something. Prayer, meditation and yoga can be good exercises to clear your mind. And if your woman is into certain esoteric beliefs, such as Theosophy or Jewish Kabbalah, then you have plenty of things to talk about. + **10\. Know the Lay of the Land** +The final lesson here takes a page from Sun Tzu. You should always familiarize yourself with your surroundings. In this particular case, though, you are going to want to know good places to take that special lady. To this end, find all of the important museums, art galleries, book stores, libraries, restaurants, theatres, coffee houses, parks and other venues around you. As before, this should be an ongoing process, because you want to know when new exhibits, shows and movies are coming. Taking a woman to see her favorite performer or artist can score you some major points in her eyes, and its even better if she wouldn't have known about it without your diligence. +With these ten easy steps in mind, you should be able to impress any refined, cultured woman. Good luck, and if at first you don't succeed, well, _c'est la vie_. At least you tried. Smile and move on, because persistence can be... kind of creepy." +759,Seduction,latina_beauty,How To,2009-03-25,2009-03-25,2022-01-04 08:38:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/seduction-48,How to pleasure a sleeping women.,"['Girlfreind', 'Seduction', 'Sleeping', 'Wife']",4.1,"_Special thanks to GW66 for his kind help and for everything he did for me. Thanks also go to my friend for ideas and to Magicheart for help._ +* +Just imagine, you come home late from the office and your wife or girlfriend is fast asleep; or you wake up in the morning to go to work and you are in the mood for sex. So, when you feel like getting it on and your girlfriend or wife is sleeping what can you do? +Whichever way you decide to go about it, always watch her reaction to your moves. If she seems disinterested then don't push her. Have some patients and don't get frustrated. +Feel her out. Hormones build up overnight during sleep, which makes some people quite horny during the night or first thing in the morning. However, things like morning breath and grumpiness can turn some women off to morning sex. It's up to you to know your partner and what she wants. Remember if she's snoring, STOP. +If you do manage to wake her up slowly and comfortably, you stand a good chance of getting some sex. Here are some tips to help you. +Light Some Candles +The flickering of candlelight might wake her calmly. It will be a nice surprise for her when she does. Another alternative could be to turn on some night lamps. Or if you have dimmer switches you use them as well. +Aphrodisiacs +The candle could have a light vanilla scent or any aroma that is pleasing to the senses. This will fill the room with a pleasant aroma that might wake her up and put her in a good mood. +Soft Music +Put on some soft music in the background. Make sure that it's not too loud it will be a rude awaking. Try something slow and romantic or the best thing would be to play her favorite songs. +Soft Caresses +Caress her thighs, stomach, and then move on the/her breasts. You don't want to start off by touching the/her breasts. Work your way towards them. Take your time, don't rush. Be as slow and gentle as possible. +Kiss Her- One of the most important actions a person can do.When she starts responding to you, start by kissing her neck, then move on to her face, all the time use butterfly kisses, soft and gentle all the time. When you feel the time is right, gently but firmly turn her on to her front. Kiss the back of her neck, as before slow gentle kisses, most women like having the hairs on the back of their neck gently touched or kissed then move on to her ear lobes. Use some discipline that means no teeth and no tongue action! If your wife or girlfriend is fully awake and responding to how you want her to, then it is time to take things further. +Take off any outer layers she may be wearing on the top half of her body. You may need to caress her while removing her clothing, do so gently as always, but listen to her, if she wants more then give her more. +When she is topless start kissing the back of her neck again, if you think she likes it, then gently blow on the back of her neck, most women like that feeling, but you should know if she likes it or not. +Kiss her shoulder blades and in between, gently lick and kiss you way down her back. Take your time, by this point she is hopefully as horny as you are. When you have reached bottom stop there, move her back onto her front. Sit back and admire your wife or girlfriend. Let her see how much you love her and desire her and let her see the lust in your eyes. +Gently kiss her eyes, her nose. Go back to her ears; show her that you love all of her features. Slowly move over her face, down her neck, then, gently kiss her lips. Women really do respond to this. +Let her know how much you desire her by allowing your kiss to speak for its self. If she responds by wanting the kiss to deepen and then do so, let her take control for a moment. +She is probably waiting for you to continue your journey down her body, don't let her wait too long. Go back to your kissing of her neck and collarbone, with gentle kisses work your way down and across to her chest, by now if all is well she will be breathing faster and her nipples will standing up waiting for attention, keep them waiting a little longer. +Move your kisses between your wives or girlfriends breasts ignore the nipples that she will be asking you to touch, keep moving downwards. Move past your partners breasts, no matter how tempting they might be. +Start kissing your partners stomach area, circle around her belly button, while doing this why not caress her breasts, reach up and stroke and caress, don't squeeze! Most women don't like that! When you have covered her upper body in kisses, finally move over to your partner's breasts, caress them, gently lick the erect nipples, and gently take them into your mouth. If she asks for more then do so, nibble he breasts if that is what she likes, but always soft and gentle. You are here to worship her make her understand this. +Her Hair +Run your hand through her hair very softly and play with it. Make sure you don't pull her hair, this will spoil the mood. Lightly give her a scalp a massage. +Whisper +Lean in and in a deep romantic voice tell her what you want. Keep your words romantic. Call her by name. Tell her that she's sexy and you want her. If you have been with her for a while you should know which words will turn her on. +Panties +Start by rubbing her pubic area over her panties. If she responds in a positive manner (which includes moaning, her body in a welcoming position, or spreading even more) place two fingers under the elastic. Don't head to the moist areas just yet. Just lightly rub the outer lips and then proceed to slide her panties off. You have to do this at a snail pace. +Ride Up +Turn her over on to her front and press your front against her back and touch your erection against her body so she can feel it. Then contract it. Hold her from behind in a spooning position. This should send a not-too-subtle message that you are ready for love. If you are lucky, she should respond. +Going Oral +First, spread her vagina lips to expose her clitoris with your fingers. Then lightly lick it. Don't lick it too hard until you are certain she is aroused. This will incite different reactions from different women so you must be responsive to her. After you have gently licked her for a minute or so, start doing it a little harder and more conclusively. You will know if she is ready for you. But let her tell you; don't just accept she is ready." +760,Self Discipline,charmer949,How To,2021-03-20,2021-04-10,2022-01-04 08:38:11,3,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/self-discipline-pt-01,1.

Neither do the characters. It's just a fantasy. +***** +My name is Dominia Sax and I'm a best-selling author of a female domination book called, ""Self Discipline-The Femdom's 12 Step Guide to Domination Freedom."" +The book is the byproduct of marrying a sexually submissive man. To catalog the germination of the hugely successful program I have created, I begin this story with our initial journey. Patsive was my fiance-at the time-and he wanted to be honest about his fetishes before we tied the knot. +I started by having him write down ways for him to be submissive. I was new to this and wanted his input. I felt it best to set the tone from the outset. On the night we got engaged, I had him make a list of all the ways he fantasized about being submissive. Here is the list he came up with: +-getting spanked +-wearing panties +-licking my butt hole +-getting peed on +-wearing a butt plug +And my personal favorite admission from him was: +-eating his cum from my pussy +I'd bet any woman reading this could be envious of the idea that my fiance wants to eat my pussy. And not only that, but while there is cum in it. Wow! +Pretty graphic stuff to hear and commit to from my new fiance. I sat on the couch after reading his idea list. Immediately, I ordered him to get over my knee. +I spanked his ass with my hand. I could tell he didn't think this was hard enough. After 50 swats he asked, ""Don't you want to make me drop my pants?"" +He didn't know I was baiting him. I wanted him to think it was his idea and make him ask for it. I was planning on making him ask for everything he would submissively receive, from now on. Every single time. +""Perhaps go to the kitchen and retrieve the wooden cooking spoon you want to be spanked with,"" I suggested. +I had him drape over my lap again, still fully clothed and gave him another 50 swats. I was smacking him pretty good, but holding back on purpose."" +""Aren't you going to make me drop my pants?"" +""You could stand up and ask for permission to have your bare ass spanked?"" I had him right where I wanted from day one. +He did exactly that, standing up and then dropping his pants and his boxers. +""Please spank my bare ass, mistress."" +""I'm not your mistress; I'm your fiance who is soon to be your wife. Don't ever call me that again."" +Then I went to town on his exposed buttocks. I smacked the shit out of his bare ass over a hundred times. He was in absolute shock (and pain). His butt went from pink to red to a deep red. I got out my phone and took a picture. Tone set. +I researched everything I could find on the internet about being in a female led relationship. So by the time we were about to be married, I had a well thought out plan. Up until then, he had to ask to be spanked, which worked out to be about twice a week. +We hadn't had intercourse yet and here I was on the cusp of marriage continuing to set the tone. I told him he shouldn't marry me unless he completely accepted that he'd be a cuckold. Starting with our wedding night. I wasn't sure which groomsman I was going to fuck, but I knew it was going to happen. I told him that I'd read the top fem dom books on being a loving dominant. Each author and expert in the field recommended cuckolding. He slunk down and grudgingly agreed. I told him his nickname would now be 'Patsy'. How funny that the first load he will finally get to eat from my married pussy-a request from his initial list-wouldn't actually be his, but one of his best friends. I'm thinking/hoping it'll be Simon. +So the sexual part of our marriage began on our wedding night with some major submission kinkiness. I knew Simon would fuck me. I just had to make it appear to be in secret. Then I'd come to the honeymoon suite and feed my new husband a fresh load of his best buddy's sperm. +And fuck the bed sheets, because without warning, I unleashed a massive downpour of urine. I peed all over Patsive-this was HIS request. I even firmly held his head so he could swallow some pee to wash down his yummy cum snack from Simon. Next, I slid slightly down to give him direct access to my anus. As he made out with my butt hole and tongued my sphincter, I guided his hand to his penis so his first marital orgasm would be by his own hand with his tongue up my ass and his hair soaked with urine. +To complete the perfect wedding night, I laid out his sleeping attire in the foyer: a butt plug, panties-both of these requests were on his initial list- and a bra that matched his panties. +He didn't even give a hint of rebuttal when he crawled into bed properly dressed. Only one item remained missing from his initial fiance list, eating his own cum from my pussy. He got to eat Simon's cum instead. But I decided months ago he was never going to fuck me. Ever. It was one of the ways I set the tone. Besides, he could easily eat his own cum. He didn't need to fuck me for that to happen. +But it was our wedding night. So, it stands to reason he should eat his cum tonight. +""Aren't you forgetting something? From your wish list, I mean."" +He knew exactly what I was referring to. +""Let's figure out how you're going to eat it."" +""Can I lick it off of you?"" +He already instinctively knew not to ask to fuck me. +""Not tonight.

My new husband jacking off in panties and a bra while pinching off a butt plug with his load squirting into his other hand so he could feed himself his slimy cum. I scored a perfect 5 for 5 from his initial list sans a spanking (which he didn't ask for). +When he leaned over to kiss me goodnight I pulled back. +""Your breath smells like cum,"" another tone setting maneuver-this one being that a cum eating husband doesn't get to kiss his wife. +In the ensuing newlywed initial months, I quickly learned having full sexual control as a loving dominant was a lot of work. And way too much time was spent on the submissive. Shouldn't that be the other way around? I needed to take control of how much time I was spending on Patsy's needs. I needed to implement a time shift. How could I have my life as a loving dominant be better? Organized differently? I kept researching, reading and studying. And I set out to devise a whole new fem dom structure. Perhaps a structure not seen in the loving dominant world. A new way of running things. +And then I'd put pen to paper and articulate my plan. All this led to my book called: +""Self Discipline-The Femdom's 12 Step Guide to Domination Freedom"" +I'm sending my husband on a journey of submissive self-discipline.

Heck, I could even have him record his solo performance for me. If I was busy or uninterested, he could report his submissive performance to me afterwards. It was brilliant, if I do say so myself.

What do you do? +First, it doesn't have to be the best written or polished story on the site. Readers here are forgiving; most of them primarily want a fresh perspective of arousing heat. This isn't the _New Yorker_ you are writing for. Readers here will tolerate a few typos and missing commas; indeed, perfect copy is almost unattainable even after a competent editor has worked with a story—and you can't count of finding a competent editor on this Web site anyway. Just about anyone with (or without) any degree of training and skill can—and does—volunteer to provide editorial help here. +Second, just waiting around forever for someone to say she/he will ""edit"" the story for you isn't going to get you or your potential readers anywhere either—you should be moving on to your next story idea and developing your storytelling skills by ""just doing it."" +You can go with just trying to make the story the best it can be; review it very carefully yourself, using techniques this essay discusses; go ahead and post it; and adjust it later as the necessity/mood strikes you—you can replace a story here later after making changes to it (read the FAQs on the submissions page for instructions on doing that). +What you can read here are a few ideas—not exhaustive, by any means—on toning up your stories by yourself. This essay covers what self-review is (and isn't) for Literotica stories, how you can do it, and what to look for while you are doing it. At the end of the essay are pointers to some resources on this topic that you can track down yourself if you want to study the question in greater depth or suspect I don't know what I'm talking about. + **What Is Self-Review?** +First, what self-review isn't. It isn't self-editing (despite the title of one of the resource books listed below). It's impossible for a writer to ""edit"" him/herself. Only someone else looking afresh at what was written without the preconceived notions of what the writer thought had been written can see some of the grammar, punctuation, and spelling mistakes; inconsistencies; and incomplete connections in a work. The writer will read right through a lot of these because her/his mind is absorbed by what she/he thought was written rather than what actually was spun out on the page. And beyond this, all writers have habitual mistakes they make, and if they made them in the first place, chances are very good they will make them again and never see them on a reread. +What the writer is actually doing when going back through a manuscript to polish it up and correct mistakes is review—""self-review."" +And this is something every writer should do even if the work is going to be edited by someone else. The better shape the writer can get the story into him/herself, the fewer mistakes there will be to bog an editor or backup reader down and distract them from seeing other, often more deeply rooted problems in the manuscript. + **How Do You Do It?** +You can catch many of your own mistakes and polish up your work yourself simply by reading it over again a few times, each time looking at it from a different aspect or for a different issue, before dumping it into the submissions queue at Literotica. First, it may not be a good idea to go over it endlessly, because what you may be beating out of it is its freshness and unique and compelling voice. +But you can improve your story a lot by submitting it to three basic read- throughs. Read through it again right after you've written it. You can catch a lot of the surface, glaring structural and presentation mistakes right off the bat. Then read it through out loud; you'd be amazed at how many mistakes pop out when you vocalize them that where hidden when everything was still internalized in your brain, where often you just haven't tapped into the file what your brain was thinking. Now, resist the urge to rush your masterpiece to the readers. Put the work aside for a few days and then come back and read it again, this time as much for context as for structure and presentation. You've now knocked out of the brain what it chose initially to see that may not really be there—or make not be there correctly. If there are significant contextual, structural, and/or presentation problems, chances are good you will catch the worst of them at this point. +And, by all means, consult resources when you are doing these reads. Yes, put the work through the computer program spell check; just don't expect the spell check's idea of what is wrong or right to be correct. It will, however, pick up a lot of errors that both you and the spell check can agree were typos or errors you just didn't see until you were focused directly on them. +More important, at least have a dictionary at your side (or on your computer desktop) while you read and recheck not just the words that look funny to you but also words you don't use all that often. Recheck to at least one level deeper than you think is really necessary. U.S. publishing mostly uses _Webster's Collegiate Dictionary_ for spelling and hyphenation. And it uses the _Chicago Manual of Style_ for published fiction. But any basic grammar and punctuation book would also be useful to use during your self-review. The _American Heritage Book of English Usage_ and Theodore M. Bernstein's _The Careful Writer_ are both excellent, easy-to-understand and use writer's aids for writing short stories. +Other techniques are frequently offered on review techniques, like reading the whole story backwards by phrase or word to help you catch spelling mistakes or scanning through the work looking for certain classifications of habitual problems only (e.g., you/you're and its/it's renderings or overuse of certain words or types of words, like adverbs). On this, though, I counsel the ""don't beat all of the life out of it"" advice given above. And, again, keep in mind that Literotica isn't the _New Yorker_. This is supposed to be fun for you, and the reader will tolerate a little lack of polish in a story as long as it delivers on what they came here for—either arousing or other forms of entertainment. + **What Do You Look For?** +When you review your story, start with the simple and the obvious, the structural and presentation issues, and work toward the complex, the context. Typically, you won't be able to see contextual problems as long as you are distracted by the more obvious, simpler problems. + **Structurally** , first look to your paragraphing. Unlike print media, reading on the computer screen requires short paragraphs and plenty of white space. Keep your paragraphs to not much more than ten lines of text and put an extra line return between them. Simply scanning through what you've written will show whether you've done this. The dialogue paragraphs should be set apart, with dialogue passages by different characters in separate paragraphs. And the Literotica editing process seems to prefer American style over UK style, so use double quotes at the first level always and see that those periods and commas and most of the question marks are tucked inside the quote marks. Do all of your paragraphs end with some type of end punctuation? If you use italics, have you done so sparingly? +In a closer look at the story, try to make sure that the **presentation** issues—the grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and spelling—aren't going to distract the reader's attention. Grammar is rough to clean up through self- review, because if you made the mistake to begin with, it's likely a mistake you habitually make and won't see in review. But you can look for subject/verb agreement (singular/plural) and you can try to make sure that sentences have a subject and verb (unless you don't intend them to; in fiction, it's quite all right to have incomplete sentences, as long as you know how to do this to good effect—and not do it all that often). You can also try to make sure that a clause modifying a noun is hung on the noun it actually modifies. (e.g., ""I gave my hat, which was red, to you"" rather than ""I gave my hat to you, which was red""). +Try to be consistent in capitalization—and don't try to capitalize every noun in sight; this is a Germanic influence that current English abhors and that can be very distracting to the reader. +And, speaking of ""sight,"" look for those misused homonyms: sight/site/cite, for instance. Mistakes in this category most often seen in Literotica story copy include you're/your, its/it's, here/hear, their/there, and then/than. +Spelling isn't as much a mystery as most writers think it is—or wouldn't be if they used a dictionary and knew how to use it. The first-listed spelling in a dictionary is the one that's preferred in publishing. And, if the spelling you've found refers you to a different spelling in the dictionary, that different spelling is preferred. Don't rely on Microsoft spell check's idea of how a word is spelled. If it doesn't like your spelling, look it up in the dictionary. Often you were right to begin with. (But also take a look at the meaning; sometimes you will have used a word that doesn't mean what you think it does.) +Look for inadvertently repeated words or prepositional phrases or words dropped. (Dropping a ""not"" can be particularly disconcerting for a reader.) +Simpler words and language and shorter sentences are better for a Literotica story than otherwise, unless you are really, really (really!) good at writing. Once again, this isn't the _New Yorker_ , and readers aren't coming here for _New Yorker_ -type stories. +Microsoft spell check is hopeless at word hyphenation—and so are most writers. Question everything you have decided to hyphenate. The dictionary is quite helpful in this realm. If you don't find the word as a run-on compound word or hyphenated in the dictionary, then it isn't hyphenated. The kicker, though, is that hyphenation of compound modifiers depends on where it is in the sentence—whether it is in an adjective position (ruby-red lips) or behind the verb (Her lips were ruby red). When in doubt, don't (except directly in front of the noun being modified). Elements of compound adjectives that end in ""ly"" (e.g., ""heavily applied makeup"") never take a hyphen. (No logic; that's just the way it is in English.) +Publishing uses more commas than is currently being taught in school English courses. When you have a sentence of two independent clauses, they are set off with a comma; but if one of the clauses in dependent, they aren't. Introductory clauses that go more than three words are set off with a comma. Publishing uses the serial comma (e.g., red, white, and beige). All ""which"" clauses are independent and are set off by a comma; all ""that"" clauses are dependent and are not set off by a comma. +I could go on and on with this, but if you look for just these basic things when you scan through your stories, a good self-review will most likely render them ""just fine"" for Literotica reading standards in terms of presentation. +When your self-review has honed down structural and presentation issues to a level that they won't distract the reader—or you in your self-review process—it would be good to read through your work **contextually**. Are your character names spelled the same throughout? Does the chronology flow properly? Do the causes logically lead to the effects? Are there questions unanswered or story threads left dangling? In a well-constructed story, everything will serve the storyline, the story won't run off on unrelated tangents or dwell on images that don't directly serve the plot. Is what you are trying to say buried in too many words or words that are either imprecise or pretentious? Is this a complete story (beginning/dilemma, middle/action, ending/resolution) if you meant for it to be a story? What's the hook and is it played as well as you think it could be? +Most important, does it do to you what you would like it to do to a reader? If you enjoyed it, chances are good someone else here will enjoy it too. Just clean it up the best you can and post it so that those who are interested in what you write can read it. + **Resources** + _Webster's Collegiate Dictionary_ , 11th edition, for spelling and hyphenation. + _Chicago Manual of Style_ (University of Chicago Press, 2003), 15th edition, for U.S. publishing fiction style. + _The Oxford Guide to Style_ (Oxford University Press, 2002), for UK publishing fiction style. +The _American Heritage Book of English Usage_ (Houghton Mifflin, 1996), for grammar/punctuation/word usage. +Theodore M.

Third of a 4-part series.,"['Back Slowly', 'Cock Cum', 'Cock Stop', 'Downward Stroke', 'Gently Lick', 'Lick Cock', 'Mouth Swallow', 'Remaining Cum', 'Slowly Pull', 'Upward Motion']",4.40,"Lead him in to the bedroom telling him that you have a very special surprise for him and that it will be something he will always remember. You will most probably have given your man many blow jobs before and will be quite comfortable to take his cum in your mouth and swallow it and also, know exactly which point of your stimulation brings him to his point of no return. Sit on the edge of the bed with him and reach over for a couple of pillows. Push him on to his back and place the pillows under his head making sure that his head is tipped slightly forward so that he can observe everything you are doing. Remove his trousers and underwear. Part his legs and approach his cock from below with your mouth slightly open and your tongue licking your top and bottom lips until they are really wet. Tell him that he is about to receive the best blow job of his life and that he should just relax and let you take control of the situation. He should already have at least a semi hard on at this stage so take his cock in your hand and very slowly start to wank him, bring your wet lips close to his cock and do full, slow strokes so that the corona is exposed from his foreskin on the downward stroke and it is fully covered on the upward stroke. +Don't be shy and encourage him to watch you playing with his cock, any man loves to see his cock disappear deep into a woman's mouth. This will be one of the most erotic scenes either of you will ever experience. Occasionally, pause the downward stroke long enough to give the corona a long lick with your wet tongue. Look up to see the response on his face each time your tongue touches different parts of his cock and let him see that you are wanting him to enjoy every minute of it. Close your eyes down to a slit and make erotic facial gestures. No man can stay soft under these circumstances, especially in anticipation of what you have made clear that you are going to do for him next. Anticipation and teasing are all part of giving tremendous oral sex but don't spend too much time in this area or his cock may stop responding and could even go limp on you. Once you have started to wank and lick his cock, it will obviously become very hard and swollen. Gaze into his eyes lovingly and open your mouth fairly wide, then slowly take his cock as deep into your mouth as possible, hold this moment for as long as you feel is right then very slowly pull back until his cock is just at the tip of your lips. Pull down on his foreskin as far as you can to reveal his corona. +Gently lick under and around the rim of his corona, you will see by the expression on his face how much pleasure he is receiving from you. Close your mouth onto his cock again keeping his foreskin pulled down with one hand and slowly feed it as deep into your mouth as possible, again slowly pull back off repeating this action several times. After a self determined number of ""sucks"", pull off and lick his cock up, down and around to see which option gives him the most pleasure. Let the tip of your tongue caress his ""piss hole"", this is heavenly for most men, talk to him and tell him what a lovely cock he has and that you will not stop until he has cum in your mouth. With all this sucking and licking his cock must be ready to explode by now, you will certainly feel it pulsing and twitching (and surely him groaning with pleasure). He will probably tell you amid his groans of pleasure that he is ready to cum but you should already have a good idea anyway. +He may instinctively try to push his cock further down your throat than you are comfortable with. To keep the situation fully under your control, move both your hands up to his hands and place them on to his stomach, hold them there while you carry on sucking him at your own slow pace. Now is the time to give your man the greatest pleasure of all, to take his cum in your mouth. Keep his cock as deep into your mouth as you can, tilt your head back slightly and make eye contact whilst sucking back and forth ever so slowly until you feel his climax ripple through his body and up through his cock. Just as his cum is about to erupt, hold your mouth and lips still, maintain eye contact and let him sense and feel his cum spraying inside your mouth. Swallow as much as you can, let him feel you swallowing it but don't release the grip of your lips from his cock just yet. +Once his orgasm has subsided, let go of his hands and bring one of your hands round to the base of his cock and squeeze it gently between your thumb and fore finger in an upward motion (slightly wanking it into your mouth), this will force most of the remaining cum up and out of his cock. When his cock has stopped pulsating in ecstasy and he has relaxed, pull back very slowly making sure that his foreskin is still pulled down, then gently lick and suck any remaining cum into your mouth. Place your thumb and forefinger at the base of his cock as before, gently squeeze and with an upward motion, milk his cock for any remaining cum, this will usually produce a small amount which you can dip your tongue into and swirl it around the head of his cock. Let him see his cum on your tongue and in your mouth before you take his cock back into your mouth for a further self determined number of deep sucks. This is the ultimate in sexual dreams that a man can have (at least until the next time) so make your mans dreams come true. + +" +763,Sensual Teasing,deborahsue,How To,2019-01-12,2019-01-12,2022-01-04 08:38:16,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sensual-teasing,The keys to successfully teasing your husband.,"['Humiliation', 'Husband', 'Little Dick', 'Sensual Teasing', 'Small Dick', 'Teasing', 'Wife']",4.13,"Sensual teasing is an art more than anything else. Some people are turned on by teasing and others, not so much. As is often the case, it is a matter of taste. +My husband enjoys teasing, but he's not so much into humiliation. There is a vast difference between teasing and humiliation, especially in intent. My husband, for example, teases me about having ""sharp elbows."" The bones in my elbows are pointed and not rounded. But by him teasing me about this natural fact does this mean he is humiliating me? Of course not! +When I am excited or agitated about something my voice rises an octave, and my husband teases me about this. Is he cruel to do so? Please! Don't be obtuse. +The same is true about sensual teasing. There are all kinds of varieties when it comes to sensual teasing, but what matters most in these scenarios is the recipient's response to said teasing. Some people can take it and some cannot. The same is true in other things of course, but sensual teasing is a particular taste that one must observe the recipient's reaction before you can fully understand if you have crossed a line. +Anecdotally speaking, my husband is immensely excited by sensual teasing of a specific sort. For example, he would not appreciate me teasing him about failing to give me an orgasm. He takes my orgasms very seriously and thus would not respond well to me teasing him about not giving me one. I don't even have to experiment with this because I already know what his response would be; disappointment in himself. +But in other areas he is much more receptive to sensual teasing. The thing is, I know my husband and where he is most secure in himself. For him, not giving me sexual pleasure is seen as a failure on his part, even if it has nothing to do with him and everything to do with me. But in other ways he is not only receptive, but is sexually excited by such teasing. +To be sure, some men simply can't be teased. Some women as well I suppose. Some men and women see all teasing as something that is abusive, whether it is sexual or otherwise. This essay is not for such people since most of them simply cannot get past their sexual self-image. + **Differences between Teasing and Humiliation** +First let's begin with some definitions. + **Tease:** +1\. to make fun of or attempt to provoke in a playful way. + **Humiliate:** +1\. to make someone feel ashamed and foolish by injuring their self-respect. +These are simple definitions, but they are useful. When placed in the realm of sexuality such definitions become readily apparent and obvious. If one is sexually provoking in a playful way then they are attempting to be stimulatory. Thus, it is a form of foreplay and should be seen as such. +On the other hand, if one is attempting to shame another or injure another's self-respect then that can be defined as abusive. To be sure, some people are sexually stimulated by such things and as such should not be judged by anything other than that by that which they are sexually excited. +Legally speaking, sexual humiliation is permissible. A girl-friend of mine from high school once told her ex-boyfriend at the time that he had a small dick and never sexually satisfied her, which I found appalling and cruel. But she was mad and hurt, so she lashed out. I understood her pain at the time and so empathized, but what she said was mean and unnecessary nonetheless. I had perspective where she did not. +But this isn't the real question. The real question is about sensual teasing and that which is playful and stimulatory. All men, and all women for that matter, appreciate sexual stimulation. To each of us sexual stimulation is a little different and meaningful differently. +For some of us, my husband and I included, sexual stimulation includes teasing. +The last definition I'd like to be clear on is: + **Sensual Teasing:** +1\. to tease another in such a fashion as to encourage sexual stimulation. +Sensual, or sexual teasing should never be confused with provoking a self- loathing in the one who is being teased. In this sense teasing is at cross- purposes with humiliation. + **NOTE** : _Please do not take my distaste for humiliation as being anything other than a preference._ + **Small Dick Teasing** +There are various forms of sensual teasing, but for brevities sake I'm going to limit this essay to small dick teasing. The reason I am limiting this is because there are hundreds of forms of sexual teasing and I'm not writing a dissertation here, so in order to make this something that can be easily read in a single pass this is what I have chosen to write about. Besides, I know something about this subject. +Let me be clear and straightforward: My husband is sexually stimulated when I tease him about the size of his dick. Why this is the case is something that is deep within himself and he has been unable to be precise about his motivations, but still, I understand his need and desires in this area and am receptive to those needs and desires. Thus I partake and, while not fully understanding, do my best to meet his wants and desires. +Let me digress for a moment. That I wish to be sexually pleasing to my husband in this way does this make me cruel and inhumane? No, of course not! It makes me loving in that I am attempting to meet a need that my husband has, for whatever his reasons. But if he asked me to do something that I thought would be cruel to him, and something that I couldn't understand, I would express such in the hopes that he would be able to either express himself better or to forego that fantasy. +So on to the title of the subject, small dick teasing. +Just to be clear, I have no issues with the size of my husband's dick. In fact, I usually have better sex with him than I have with men who are larger. But that is beside the point. My husband is sexually stimulated whenever he thinks about his wife having had sex with men who have larger cocks. +For him he loves it, is extremely excited, whenever I remind him that my boyfriend's cock is much bigger than his. And to tell the truth, my boyfriend's cock is much bigger. And as such, I too am sexually stimulated by remembering the differences between them. +My current boyfriend's cock is quite large, not so much in length but rather in girth, which I personally prefer. Lengthwise he is about 7 inches, but in girth he stretches me perfectly. In truth, I love having sex with him because his size is exactly as I like it. +My point in explaining this isn't to titillate, but rather to explain the situation so that maybe you will understand. Most women do not have a husband _AND_ a boyfriend. In most cases they have a husband and a dildo. For husband's that are interested in this type of teasing, explaining this can be very difficult for them since they don't want their wives to think them weak. +The thing is, I don't need full comprehension to justify why my husband enjoys being teased about the size of his dick. All I really need is enough understanding so that I can enjoy the teasing as much as he does. + **Why Tease** +Again, let me stipulate that the purpose of this essay is explaining teasing and _NOT_ humiliation. I have no experience with humiliation and no interest in the subject. +When my husband and I first married 24 years ago he expressed to me at the time that he wished he had more in the dick department to give me. I thought little of this at the time since I was unconcerned and was satisfied with him as a lover. That said, he never released that thinking and carried it with him. Still does to this day and probably always will. +Over the years he, from time-to-time, expressed such thoughts to me and as usually I gave them little thought since I was pleased with him as a man and as a lover. See, the thing is he had these thoughts due to his previous experiences of which I had little knowledge. +Like my high school friend, some girls can be cruel when hurt. My husband had a few similar experiences when he was younger and as such had some peculiar neurosis. He thought, wrongly I might add, that his dick was too small to be fully satisfying. +Over the years my husband would ask about my previous lovers, and inevitably would ask about the size of their dicks. Thinking nothing of it I would tell him the truth and he would internalize that as being a diminishing of his manhood and sexual prowess. +At first I didn't understand and would remind him that I found him to be a superior lover in all respects. And, at first, he wouldn't accept this. But over time he took note of the fact that I almost always had an orgasm with him, loved on his body and his dick and complimented him on his prowess in the bedroom. +I didn't do this to bolster his self-esteem, I did that because it was true. Over time he asked good questions and I explained to him my mind. In its own way it was very beautiful because he listened to me, to my wants and desires, and as such he became an even better lover. +Here's the thing, as my husband listened to me, I too listened to my husband. He explained to me how a few girlfriends of his said some pretty mean things to him about the size of his dick. But over time, as his confidence grew, he began to sexualize the words those girls said to him. They became lost to their original meaning and purpose and as such, became a sexual stimulation. +To me this is healing. The _Why_ my husband wants to be teased about the size of his dick. +For him, it is a reminder that his previous sexual relationships are inferior to his sexual relationship with me. I love my husband, I love his body, I love his mind and yes, I love his small dick. +Teasing my husband about his small dick is a form of foreplay for us. For one, it tells my husband that I am thinking about him in a sexual way. Secondarily, we can do this at any time of the day, meaning that my pussy can be wet literally most of the day, making me very receptive when sex does finally occur. +Finally, teasing my husband reassures him that not only do I accept him for who he is, but also that I want him. + **Safe Environment for Teasing** +The title of this section is _Safe Environment_ because everybody's tastes in this area varies. This is a very personal thing, and we all have things that we are sensitive about, so I will only tell you how I do it and if it sounds of interest to you then you can try it out for yourself. +That said, adapting these ideas into your own repertoire of tricks may be of some use to you and your spouse. + **RULES:** +1 **.** **Communication** : Communication should be the first thing that you do. Since teasing is so personal I can't stress it highly enough. Your spouse may have no interest in sensual teasing or be too sensitive about that which you want to tease them with. + **2\. Playfulness:** When teasing ALWAYS be playful. Usually, when teasing my husband about his little dick, I will be touching him in some way. Sometimes a hand upon his thigh, sometimes brushing my lips on his neck and ear as I whisper sweetly. + **3\. Smile:** Smiling lets him know that I'm having fun with him. + **4\. Eye Contact:** Looking my husband in the eye as I tease him tells him that my attention is focused on him and having fun. Coupled with a smile this reassures him that my teasing, while personal, is just in fun and not meant to hurt. + **5\. Touching:** If I have my hand upon my husband's dick as I tease him about it I can test for his receptiveness. A positive response from his body tells me that he is enjoying himself. + **6\. Openness:** Teasing a man about the size of his dick is fraught with perils. To be honest, I was terrified at first. The ONLY reason I did it the first time is because my husband literally asked me to. + **7\. Understanding:** Understanding WHY the teasing is exciting is more important that the teasing itself. When I first began teasing my husband I was very unsure of myself because I didn't fully understand his emotional motivations. This is why Communication is first on my list, because after much discussion I not only understood him but very much wanted to explore this aspect of his sexuality. + **8\. Speech:** Once I understood my husband's motivations it became much easier for me to tailor the things I said to him. For example, since one of my husband's ex-girlfriends used the word ""little"" with him I incorporated that word into my teasing. This took away the power she had over his psyche' in this area thereby freeing him from the bondage of the pain she caused. +Things that are said in anger are rarely true in the sense that they are said in order to hurt or anger the other party. Thus, when the things that are said cause emotional pain and damage sometimes the cure is to experience those words in a titillating way. This has worked wonders for my husband's self- image and confidence. Your mileage may vary. + **9\. Satisfaction:** The purpose for teasing my husband is sexual satisfaction. Teasing is different from humiliation. ALWAYS remember that. Teasing is not meant to hurt, and if your husband or wife understands this clearly, then the teasing will usually be fun. + **10:** **Enjoyment:** If you are not enjoying yourself your spouse will pick up on that and the teasing will seem perfunctory to them. They probably won't enjoy it very much if you are not having a good time. +Teasing my husband about the size of his dick almost always leads to a sexual encounter later. This is just one of the ways that I let my husband know that I want to have sex with him later. +Sending my husband a text in the middle of the day asking him if his little dick is thinking about me can be very erotic. Who knows what kind of day he is having or if he is stressed at the time, but getting a naughty text from your wife will almost always cheer you up. + **Final Thought** +It should be readily apparent that any sexual playfulness be wrapped in a caring environment. If this is not true in your case then what I have to say on just about any subject should be considered irrelevant. +In any caring relationship the emotions and mentality of the other needs to be considered prior to engaging with them in risky sexual scenarios. I knew my husband's mind on things well before I was a participant in this fetish. +Teasing, especially sexual teasing, is a risky proposition. And just because your husband may say he wants it doesn't necessarily mean that he will respond the way he thinks he will. +In my case small dick teasing works wonderfully. But then again, my husband and I are probably very different than you and your husband. We have different likes, different interests, different education and different experiences. These differences, while perhaps similar in some respects, will change the responses we will have to stimuli. +Please, if you and your husband are curious about exploring something like this then be sure to understand as best you can what the motivations are so that you can avoid pitfalls.

A friend of mine that I had been close to for many years and that I had trained with in many different ways for our online chosen way of life, told me that I just had to check out. She knew after my release with the man that I thought was to be my love Master, I needed a break and the change would do me good. Well the rule in this particular room was that I could visit three times and after the third visit I either had to beg steel or be tossed into a bondmaid circle. There was no just ""hanging out"" in this room. They really wanted you to get involved. +There was just something about that room that drew me in... something that said ""this is for me"" and I knew that the change and the new way of serving would be the best medicine for my broken heart. I needed time to heal and something to occupy my mind. What better way than throwing yourself into something brand new full force? So on the third visit, I was reminded once again that the next time I came, to be prepared to wear steel. Well I came again and sure enough was collared... hammered steel, true to Northern ways and then, before I could even react, was put into a branding rack. +Now I had never been branded before and haven't been since. The thing is... that brand, the one used by Ivar Forkbeard, the brand of the North, that is one of my most cherished possessions online. It's branded on the inside of my right thigh. I played out the whole scenario and, honestly, felt that part of my slavery for the first time online. It didn't matter that the Jarl that actually branded me didn't care one iota for me or me for him. He was doing it for the Mistress that had branded me. And I didn't even stay in that room long because their first axe broke loose and started to his own room and I quickly followed behind him. +That was the room... that was the collar that really ""saved"" the online me. I had a chain sister in this collar and she taught me how to let go. I had always served what they call ""silk slave"" or Southern kajira style... very wordy, very descriptive but not a lot of heat. A lot was left to the imagination. In the South, kajira were pretty much like what I like to describe as slutty Southern belles. *chuckles* They teased a lot and knew that it was better to be seen than heard. +Well in the North, it is totally opposite. Slave girls in the North are called bondmaids and their serves are short, to the point and so hot that they make even the other girls sweat! My chain sister told me once, and I quote, ""If it doesn't make me wet, it's not hot enough."" *laughs* I love that girl! I still, to this day, use that line whenever I am training a new girl bondmaid style. Yachida worked with me diligently every day in an attempt to get over this wall that I had erected as a Southern kajira. I just couldn't seem to get over that hump between teasing and being blatantly delicious. +But in time, I did and when it finally clicked, I knew I had found my place. Now that was a couple of years ago but that is what has really formed me into the online persona that I am now. There's no question about it... I am a bondmaid. Sure, I can serve Southern kajira style but I do best northern style. That's just me. +I figured that seeing a comparison in the way in which they both serve might help you see the difference... +Southern approach to a Master: \- rocks back on bared heels to rise upwards with feline grace, slender fingers danced over purple-hued silks that accentuate each curve and valley, chin tilting upwards proudly to display hammered steel as auburn curls cascade in a waterfall of fire around rolling shoulders, moving to where Master BlahBlah rests she melts downwards before him with ease, silken thighs blooming wide for his pleasure, palms upturned to his will as her voice lifts in a sultry cares... ""May girl please you in some way, Master?"" +Northern approach to a Jarl: \- bared feet dance the wanton beast into the kitchen, fingers curling around a pitcher of mead and a large horn, pulling it close to trembling slave belly as she turns to move back out into the main hall of the holding, decadent rock and dip of round hips beckoning his grasp and thrust, full breasts lifted above tapered waist, achingly tight nipples seem to beg for the heat of his mouth as she slithers close, pressing seductively to his strong arm her voice like a heated caress full of promise on his ear as she whispers... ""Mead, Jarl? Or perhaps the slut that serves it?"" +As you can see, there is a bit more difference. *chuckles* In my opinion, the bondmaids seem to have more fun and I think you can see why I prefer this particular style of serving.

You have an awesome plot with a surprising and touching ending, and some absolutely sizzling sex scenes! You are nearly there in writing a story or book deserving a 5-star review, but so far, it's only a 4. Lots of your competitors' stories have sizzling hot sex scenes, believable characters, and great plots. And after a while, in my own humble opinion, these stories start sounding the same. The plot and the characters are well drawn, they hang together nicely, but something is missing. One way to push it to the top of the scale is to make it a tearjerker, but that's not my point here. I suggest that you use _all_ the tools at your disposal, and be subtle when you manipulate your readers. An important tool to do this is the setting of your story. +Now setting is a bit like salt: a little goes a long way. Believe me, I've made that mistake. I speak from experience. That's why I recommend the Goldie Locks approach. You know: not too much, not too little, just... enough. +The setting in which your characters act out their erotic and romantic trysts is just as important in immersing your readers in the story as giving just the right hints of what the characters look like, and how they act. Setting is definitely a hidden character. Think about it: a guy and a girl meeting in a crowded, neon light-drenched supermarket will act just a bit differently towards each other than they might were they to meet on a winding trail, sunlight peaking through the tree canopy in the mountains. In the supermarket, even if they acknowledge each other, they might barely nod as they push their carts around the aisles. Packages of frozen peas are not sexy, and Johnson's baby oil is a bit over the top and clichéd. In the woods, soft shadows playing across their faces, they might stop and exchange some chitchat about the trail, drink some water, get to know each other in a more relaxed way. +The couples playing games relaxing in the privacy of their own home will act differently than the couple exploring a sex club for the first time. Setting affects our mood: it can comfort or menace, it can encourage playfulness or suspicion, exploration or introversion. Think about how you feel when you wake up on a sunny day in an old timey wood cabin on the banks of a lake, birds chirping outside your window, as opposed to in the same wood cabin set on top of a peak in a lightning storm, thunderbolts echoing off the other mountain peaks. Weather is a great reflector of mood, and setting can affect whether your characters will choose to do one thing or another: be introverted or extroverted, reflectively quiet or boisterously outgoing. +I was once camping with friends on the bank of a beautiful mountain lake, enjoying the serenity of the place. One of us had brought his wife and three- year old kid. As we were falling asleep, a biker in a tent next to our tents in the campground started banging his girlfriends -- yes, at least two of them. Loudly! Let's just say we all felt like we were right there with them. Or they with us. I need to turn that one into a story some day. But I digress... +Dwelling too much on the setting can easily distract from the story -- in one of my stories I got rather carried away describing a scuba diving trip because I wanted to give readers who'd never been diving a feel for what it's like. I went overboard, so to speak. Less is more. A little bit goes a long way. Doling it out in teaspoon quantities and then sprinkling more throughout the story, as needed, is the way to go. Some of the best writers of thrillers and spy novels, for example Raymond Chandler or John Le Carré or Len Deighton, are masters at using setting as a character in the story. Their settings can be gray and murky and smoky, and so realistic you can smell the cigarettes on the fingers of a shady character or the sex in the air at a club where a burn is in progress. They use setting to service the plot. I meant, to further the plot! +In her novel Out of Africa one of my favorite writers, Isak Dinesen, described her coffee plantation in the African wilderness so well that I could hear the rustle of the wind through the tall savannah grass and dream I was there, sharing gin and tonics with her and her other guests on the porch of her house. She was truly poetic in her descriptions. But those same descriptions would be much too distracting in a thriller or mystery novel, or in many erotic stories. I would skip right over them to get to the good parts instead of savoring them, rolling them on my tongue like a piece of slow-melting hard candy. +So choose your setting wisely, describe it sparingly, but make it vivid. And let the characters loose to have their sex and eat it, too. Cake! I meant cake!" +766,Seven Simple Tips to Arouse your Man,patwong,How To,2010-10-07,2010-10-07,2022-01-04 08:38:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/seven-simple-tips-to-arouse-your-man,Tips to increase his sexual lust.,"['Anal', 'Coitus', 'Masturbation', 'Pornography']",2.68,"Males are sexually very easily aroused creatures, and the variation from one male to another is minimal. Here are seven tips on how to arouse your male and increase his sexual lust. + **Lick his asshole** : men love having their assholes licked. Make sure you clean his anus very well before you start licking him. While you lick him, you should also refrain from swallowing your saliva, but instead, spit loudly on his asshole. It will make him feel very nice and will excite him. When his ass hole is very wet, feel free to bury your face between his buttocks and to insert your nose in his anus. That also excites the male very much and usually results in him moving to engage in vaginal coitus. + **Shave his balls** : The male testicles are very sensitive creatures. As you must have noticed, they are cold when you touch them, and that is because cold is required to preserve the sperm. Men love it when a woman undertakes to shave their balls, especially when the idea originated from the female. The best way to proceed is to simply inform him, out of nowhere, that you plan to shave his balls that night, as a matter of fact, and then move on. You will notice that he will become excited and his eyes will turn red with lust. When later you shave his balls, assume a serious demeanor and focus on your work. When you are done, clean off any shaving cream and run warm water over his balls. He will like it and will probably smile, or even laugh outright. Don't laugh or smile, but instead look at him sternly, as if to say that this was no laughing matter. Then proceed to put both of his balls in your mouth and begin to suck gently, maintaining eye contact with the male all along. This is important. You will notice after a few seconds that the male will move to engage you in coitus, and that his coitus is aggressive and long lasting. + **Shave your pussy in front of him** : Men also like to watch women shave themselves. Ideally, you want your male to catch you shaving your pussy by surprise. When he catches you, pretend to be embarrassed a bit, but then continue shaving. The best place would be on your bed, sitting on a towel, with a bowl of water by your side and a small mirror between your legs. Proceed with caution and concentration and don't let the male disturb you. As you shave, tell the male to sit some ways off and give him permission to masturbate, but order him to be quiet. Tell him that what you are doing is serious and that he can't disturb you. Males in such situations are very obedient and he will listen to whatever orders you issue to him. Make sure you tell him that he must refrain from ejaculating, and if you see him masturbating too aggressively, order him to stop. He will stop. When you are done shaving your vagina, dry it with a small towel, put away the bowl and the mirror, slap the lips of your vagina a few time, and then order your man to come over and penetrate you. He will be lustful and will hurry your way. He will be ready and eager even for coitus. + **Watch him masturbate** : Men love to expose themselves to females. Ask him out of the blue to strip naked and to sit down and start masturbating for you. Do it with a forceful but gentle voice, not pleading amorously, but rather, requesting politely but matter-of-factly, as if you were asking him to go to the store to buy you some bread. You can achieve best effect if you catch him by surprise (the element of surprise should never be underestimated) and ask him explicitly: as in, ""I need you to masturbate in front of me. Please go upstairs and strip naked. I will be up in a second."" As you will see, he will not ask you why, and may even suppress the expression of his surprise. When you go upstairs, remain fully clothed and maintain a distance. If you have glasses, put them on. Your task is to watch him fully, your eyes focused on his penis. Minimize your smiling, but nod approvingly as he masturbates. He will be watching you closely, so once in a while make eye contact, but then shift your stare back to his penis and testicles. He will like the fact that you are watching his genitalia. They should be the focus of your stare. Ignore his pleas to come to bed: answer such please by saying, ""focus on the masturbation,"" or ""you are doing well."" When you feel that he his climbing towards ejaculation and orgasm, ask him to slow down. This is the point when you need to undress your lower part and quickly get on bed to engage him in coitus. Keep as much of your clothes on as possible. He will be very excited by having coitus with you with most of your clothes on. + **Masturbate in front of him** : Men love watching women masturbate, almost more than engaging in coitus with them. I have noticed this not only with my husband, but also with the other men that I have had coitus with (with the full permission of my husband). They like to watch a woman pleasure herself and it arouses them very much. My husband moans loudly with lust when he catches me masturbating and has an immediate erection. (He has a large collection of pornographic DVDs dedicated to female masturbation and ejaculation.) The key thing is to have your male catch you masturbating by surprise. Again, the element of surprise is key. It is also ideal that he catch you masturbating while watching a pornographic movie or magazine. +Of course, women have a completely different philosophy about masturbation than men and masturbate not by watching raw sex in front of them, but by fantasizing, but males don't understand that. When they catch a woman watching pornography, they relate to that and it makes them excited. If you are able to verbalize yourself while watching by using coarse words, that would arouse the male even more. For best results, the male should be able to sneak up on you and watch you without your knowledge -- or at least, with him thinking that you don't know you are watching. At some point, he will not be able to contain himself and will move to engage in coitus with you. Readily spread your vaginal lips and order him to ""put it in"". Reach out for his penis and then loudly spit on it for lubrication and eagerly advance your vagina towards the penis for penetration. You will see that his eyes are red. This is the natural reaction of a male who is about to penetrate a fully aroused female. + **Smell his anus while he farts** : if you are able to stand the stench of human excrement, being able to take a deep breath while you male is farting will earn you a lot of points with your male. The best time you should do this is if your olfactory faculties are impaired -- during a cold, for instance. Otherwise, one method is to have the man fart a few times to get the room aromatically acclimated, and your sensitivities calibrated. The best way is to have him fart several times, with you getting gradually closer to the origin of the farts, his asshole. You will find that by the tenth fart or so, you will be able to comfortably take deep breaths immediately after the fart is issued. (I suggest that a few hours before the farting session, you have him eat black beans with rice. Avoid chicken as the stench is usually quite over powering.) You will also notice that you yourself will be strangely aroused as you become comfortable with the smells, sometimes to the point of orgasm. If you do get to a point of orgasm, let yourself consummate the orgasm. At such times, announce your orgasm by saying, ""I am having an orgasm,"" while slapping your vagina loudly. This will startle the male and will immediately move him to engage you in coitus. He will be impressed and will want to handsomely reward your hard work. + **Verbalize** while you are engaged in coitus: something very few females do -- and it is truly a big shame -- is verbalize their feelings and needs. Men like it when women talk while engage in sex. All females of course groan and even yell while they are having coitus (whether vagina or anal), but few speak in sentences. And that is the key: speaking in fully constructed and grammatically correct, sentences. The sentences do not need to be highly inventive: you can say something patently obvious, such as, ""I am having sex,"" or ""my husband is fucking me,"" or ""this is wholesome,"" or ""I feel full,"" etc. You can be very creative and can surprise your male with exclamations that he had never heard before (at least not from you). Let yourself go free in what you say, and just say what you think or feel with utter honesty. Here are some suggestions: ""I like men,"" ""the cock is good,"" ""I have a nasty pussy,"" ""the smell of ass,"" ""I live the cock and balls,"" ""sex is important,"" ""I want men on my bed,"" ""this is very interesting to me,"" ""this is fulfilling,"" ""I am a female,"" etc. +So there, I shared with you some of the things that I do to arouse my males, but you can obviously think of your own (and share them with me if you like -- I would love to read them!). As you must have noticed, the most important thing is the element of surprise. Men love to be surprised. The other element is the female being proactive with sex. This will differentiate you in the eyes of your male and he will see you as a curiously sexual creature. What is also important to note is that you can do any of these actions at any age, and they will work every time. It also does not require you to be a stunning beauty. In fact, these tips work best when performed by housewives and females who are usually very sexually staid. The contrast between what is expected from them and what they do is the spark that moves men to high sexual arousal. So enjoy yourself. There is so much you can do with just a little of imagination and effort." +767,Seven Types of Female Orgasm,wife2hotblk,How To,2010-03-13,2010-03-13,2022-01-04 08:38:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/seven-types-of-female-orgasm,Curious? See if you agree...,"['Female Orgasm', ""Women'S Orgasm""]",4.1,"I cannot take credit for the ideas within this article. I first learned of these theories about seven years ago in one of those Cosmo articles about super sex. I have since done several on-line searches to locate it, but with no luck yet. I have taken that article as I remember it and combined it with personal experience to bring you what I hope will be an informative and helpful article. I do though have a background in the subject as I hold a bachelor's degree in Health Education and worked for some time in Sexual Health and HIV education. I hope you enjoy. +It is a subject that science has long debated. It is also a subject that has proven worrisome for many women and men. It is the female orgasm. Since 1957 when Masters and Johnson began their controversial work with human sexual response, we have learned many things about the female sexual response. But science is still divided on many of the things mentioned in this article. Some scientists continue to insist that the only manner in which a female can reach orgasm is through the clitoris. Others give credence to the elusive G-spot named or Gräfenberg spot, named after the man who 'discovered' it. This articles intent is to offer a variety of theories and perhaps hope to women, who may have thought themselves incapable of orgasming (and the men who love them). +1) Clitoris - Let's begin with the obvious, the one that all scientist agree upon, the clitoral orgasm. This most common type of female orgasm is achieved by stimulating the clitoris. The clitoris is the female equivalent of a male's penis head, and is highly sensitive to stimulation. As women become aroused their clitoris swells up with blood, becomes more sensitive and at the same time it retracts under its clitoral hood. With enough stimulation through pressure, rubbing, or a vibrator, the ultra-sensitive clitoris will cause the release of an orgasm. Or that's what science tells us. +From a practical standpoint, this is the easiest for most women to achieve perhaps because the clitoris itself is easily found. Some women prefer indirect contact by massaging the clitoral hood, while others can enjoy direct clitoral stimulation. The best advice is always to experiment, alone or with your partner. +I recommend that women take the time to get to know their bodies intimately. One simple way of doing this is to lie back naked on your bed with one of those magnifying makeup mirrors between your legs. Open the labial lips and actually look at your clitoris and vagina. Then spending some time touching and exploring what feels good and what does not. If you are brave enough then the challenge is to watch yourself in the mirror as you orgasm. It can be shocking how strongly those inner lips and muscles contract during an orgasm; imagine what that must feel like wrapped around your partner's cock. Feel the power of womanhood? +2) Gräfenberg or g-spot -- Although scientists are far from unanimous about this one, over the past twenty years it has become more widely accepted by many. It describes the bean-shape area of the vagina that many women report to contain an erogenous zone which when stimulated can lead to high levels of sexual arousal and powerful orgasms. It is typically located one to three inches up the front vaginal wall between the vagina opening and the urethra. This type of orgasm is sometimes referred to as a pressure orgasm, because it arises from the direct application of pressure to the nerve endings. +Practically speaking, it is more difficult to experiment alone with this one. Many women (myself included) find that their g-spots are just out of reach of their own fingers. I can reach my g-spot and even stimulate it, but my fingers cannot apply sufficient pressure to trigger an actual orgasm. But this can be overcome through the use of certain sex toys designed specifically to stimulate the area. +It also presents an enjoyable way for your partner to lend a hand, if you will. I have been known to go up to my husband and put his fingers directly inside my vagina, telling him that I need a quick relief. And sister can it be quick! I can orgasm almost immediately. This pressure orgasm also provides most of my multi-orgasmic capacity as one can easily roll into two, three, or more. I like to call this one a Big Mac, because like a fast food burger it is a quick, convenient way to take the edge of your need. It is also the only type of orgasm that will elicit female ejaculation, at least in me. +3) Vaginal or deep cervical -- This is the latest and most highly controversial of all the types of orgasm. Scientists assert that deep vaginal wall and cervix have virtually no nerve endings, thus making this type of orgasm impossible. They assert that instead what the woman attributes to vaginal stimulation is most likely the rubbing of the clitoral hood during the act of penetration. +Now, I am only a woman, a multi-orgasmic woman. But my simple response to this is bull shit. This is a distinctly different sensation than a clitoral orgasm. For me, the internal vaginal contractions are less pronounced, but the overall pleasure is not diminished. If the g-spot can offers a taste of multi-orgasmic pleasure this is the buffet table, ladies. Through deep penetration, I can come almost constantly throughout sexual intercourse. +I do hate to admit this though. In this type of stimulation, the size of the waves does matter. It is called deep cervical for a reason. If your partner lacks the equipment to reach and stimulate this area, other than sex toys, there is no easy answer. Of course, experimenting with different positions can help if your partner is almost there. Personally, I enjoy doggy and what I like to call heels to ears when hubby pushes my legs so far back that I can almost touch my ears with my toes. Both of these positions can prove highly productive for most 'average' men. Then you have the occasional stud from which we get all those incredibly true stories. +Alright from here on out, ladies and gentlemen, we get very controversial. Few within the recognized field of human sexual research would validate these claims. But still women, myself included, make anecdotal claims of sexual delights beyond the realm of science. I will rely heavily on personal experience and opinion with this section. But then again I have a lot of experience to rely upon. +4) Anal -- This one basically is seen as stimulating the g-spot from another angle through the penetration and stimulation of the anus. I will say that anal sex may not be for everyone and that it may take time and patience for a woman enjoy this type of stimulation. My best advice for experimenting with this one is to begin slowly. I recommend that the couple try foreplay, oral and vaginal intercourse. Then when the man is sufficiently stimulating and within a few minutes of reaching orgasm attempt anal penetration. Of course, the bit about using lots of lube goes without saying. For me, this one ranks as a take or leave experience that is reserved for special occasions. If the g-spot was a Big Mac then this is filet mignon. +5) Nipple -- Most people recognize that stimulating the erogenous zones on and around the breast can heighten sexual pleasure. But few scientists would give serious credence to nipple stimulation alone being sufficient to achieve orgasm. I admit that as addicted as I am to nipple stimulation to achieve a clitoral orgasm I have rarely experienced this type apart from any other. But given the wide range of human sexual responses, it is possible that some women with particularly sensitive nipples and breasts may do so. The few experiences that I have had with this type of orgasm occurred most frequently when I was pregnant or lactating. So ladies, take this as a license to explore your sexuality more during these blessed fruitful times. +6) No hands, Ma -- Also called a dream-gasm, this type is the equivalent of a teenage boy's wet dreams. During sleep, dreaming or intense altered mental consciousness such as meditation, some women report the ability to achieve orgasmic release without physical touch of any type. Have I you ask? A couple of times, but generally I lack the patience when I can come so much quicker by touching myself or having a partner do so. I suppose the best way to experiment with this one is definitely alone, ladies. Pull that super-hot romance off the shelf and curl up with it before bed time. Allow your mind to take over and see what can happen. +7) Combination -- Basically this is achieved by combining two or more of the mentioned types of orgasms with the ultimate goal of achieving a super-gasm. This one can be fun to experiment with your partner. How many can you personally combine? How intense is the sensation? My record, you ask? Let's see, when I first read that Cosmo article my lover at the time set out to find out. If my count is correct, we managed to combine nipple, clitoral, deep cervical and anal for a grand slam home run. Of course, we had help from a few sex toys. Or alternatively for the adventurous among us, multiple partners. I have certainly enjoyed more than one orgasm while swinging or with my gang bang friends, the Mandingos. +So the simple moral of this story is that with a variety of options available to us, there is no reason that any woman should not enjoy as much orgasmic delight as she wants. Sometimes that can within the confines of a loving and committed relationship. Other times it may be through wild, once-in-a-lifetime experiments such as gang bangs. But it can also be achieved in our quiet, solitary moments with our own touch or toys. But whatever type or however you achieve, do come...again...and again...and again." +768,Sex After Sixty,Bakeboss,How To,2010-06-24,2010-06-24,2022-01-04 08:38:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sex-after-sixty,A how to guide for geriatric sex.,['Geriatric'],4.29,"First off, I'd like to say to all you young whippersnappers out there, stop saying eww.

Next, the only qualifications I have to talk on this subject are of a personal knowledge, as I have no professional training in this field. +Everyone, man or woman has a right to an active sex life no matter how old he or she may be. However, having that right does not necessarily mean you or your partner has the ability to fulfill that right. In most people, aging is a gradual process and we tend not to notice our loss of stamina and a lowering of libido. Many couples are amazed when they find out how long it has been since they've been intimate. There appears to be a certain time line and once crossed, sex disappears between them.

With the hormone loss, came a lessoning of desire from her and although still willing to participate, she no longer had a strong sex drive. When you add in less lubrication and my no longer rock hard erection it tended to make sex work instead of pleasure. +As I kept getting the feeling that she was merely allowing, instead of wanting sex I would often fail to achieve orgasm and just give up. My wife took this as a lack of desire for her, further complicating our sex life. She interpreted my failed performances as a sign that she no longer had a desirable body. I repeatedly told her this wasn't true but to her she had my feeble erection as all the proof she needed. She told me many times that she didn't miss the sex as much as she missed the post coital cuddling. As for me, I just couldn't bring myself to tell her it wasn't her body that failed to turn me on it was her lack of a sex drive. +Everything physically appeared to work for both of us just not well enough for us to have sex. I turned to internet porn and masturbation and although not hard enough for intercourse, I would be firm enough to achieve orgasm. My wife turned to romance novels for much of the same reason. I kept jacking off and she kept losing herself between the pages of Harlequin as the clock kept ticking. It didn't take long before we just quit trying, weeks turned into months and months into years. +Finally, my wife came to me one day to say she wanted to have sex. As always, she was the aggressor and took the first step. She asked me what I thought was inhibiting our ability to make love. I told her I believed it to be honesty as we held back our own feelings from each other. I then went on to say that, I also missed our sex life and that we should put more effort into it. We gave it another try and achieved another failure. After finally giving up, we sat together on the bed naked both trying to find some way of accomplishing something we had done thousands of time. She asked me what I thought of the little blue pill or one of the many other male sexual enhancements. I told her I was concerned what they may do to my health but that I would be willing to go to a doctor and talking to him about them. I told her that I was capable because I could still masturbate to orgasm. She leaned over and took my limp dick in her hand. Then suddenly she let go of me and scooted back on our bed. +""Do you remember when we were young and I would sit back and let you watch me play with myself but not allow you to touch me?"" +Just the thought made my dick twitch and I'm sure she saw it because she got that evil grin on her face that I always loved. She put her hand to her slit and separated herself with one finger. I told her she always drove me crazy with her teases so she continued. She began to rub her clit then she gave me that little girl frown as she said, +""I'm just so dry, I need to be wetter."" +I got down between her legs and stuck out my tongue, yet not touching her. She ran her finger over my tongue and then inserted into her slit. +""Oh yes, that feels better, now open up and give me some more."" +She used my saliva for lubrication repeatedly and just as she neared orgasm, she moved forward putting her slit in my face. She came for the first time in months that I know of and as for me I was hard and humping the bed under me. She lay back down and I mounted her as she helped insert my erection inside. As we made love, I kept going back to those times, long ago, as she pleasured herself while she teased me unmercifully. I came maybe not like a racehorse but at least as good as an old man can. +It was wonderful and we both felt satisfied, not only from the sexual act but also from accomplishing something we no longer felt possible. I went out that evening and purchased a bottle of sex lube to help her stay wet. The next time we tried it I applied the lube to both her and I and after I entered her, I talked to her of times past when she had driven me crazy with her sexy ways. Although she didn't achieve orgasm that time, I did and this satisfied her almost as much as if she had cum too. +We are now having sex, not as often as we once did but at least we are having sex. To all you seniors out there not having sex with your partner don't give up. Talk with your spouse, talk honestly, but not mean. It is hard to tell the wife she is not wet enough without her thinking you're calling her a dried up old prune. It is just as hard to tell a man that he's not hard enough without him thinking she's calling him a limp-dicked old man. Remain calm and if you insult her apologize and if you feel the same try not to take it personally. +As for the little blue pills, I never went to the doctor so I've never tried them. I feel my problem was more libido than physical but of course, I could be wrong. Don't be embarrassed about going to the doctor, they are prescribing these pills by the carload and I'm sure they're helping millions of couples. The only thing you need to do is take that first step and remember the longer you wait the harder it is to get back to that thing you both enjoyed so much when you were younger." +769,Sex and the Pregnant Girl,wife2hotblk,How To,2009-01-08,2009-01-08,2022-01-04 08:38:22,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sex-and-the-pregnant-girl,What every woman (and man) should know.,"['Fellatio', 'Lactation', 'Pregnant', 'Sex During Pregnancy', 'Sexual Intercourse']",4.26,"**Sex and the Pregnant Girl: What every woman (and man) should know** +Have I got your attention with the title? The thing is that this is a delicate subject with many myths. It is also one that many women feeling very uncomfortable discussing with their doctors or midwives. +First thing to know is that in a normal, uncomplicated pregnancy; it is alright to engage in most sexual activities right up to the time that labour begins. But of course, always follow your doctor or midwife's specific recommendation. They will be the ones to let you know if there is a medical reason not to engage in sex, usually things such as placenta previa or pre- mature rupture of the membranes. +Second thing to know is that with all humans there is a range of responses to pregnancy. Of course, we have all heard about many women whose enjoyment of and response to sex is greatly increased during pregnancy. That does occur in many cases, especially during the second and third trimester when the tiredness and nausea have begun to abate. During this time when blood circulation is already increased to the reproductive organs in order to sustain the baby, sensation can be heightened. It is not unheard of that women who had been unable to achieve orgasm will be able to do so during pregnancy. In addition, some women and men find great freedom because as ironic as it may sound during this time, they are relieved of the fear of impregnation. +But it is also important to understand that this does not happen to all women. In some cases, the discomforts of pregnancy (the increasing size, frequent urination, heartburn or swelling) may prevent a woman from engaging not only in sex but other everyday activities. Other times it can the psychological adjustment to the changing body image. Unfortunately, in our size conscious culture some people (either pregnant women or their partners) confusing the growing bump with other weight issues. If this is the case with you or your partner then sometimes these issues can be resolved with encouragement and loving support. The important thing though is to accept and accommodate any change in sexual appetite. The same communication skills that are as necessary as new parents come in handy now...listening, empathising and accommodating the needs of others. +Other things to know about sex during pregnancy: +Position is important: Some positions for sexual intercourse that you may have enjoyed (almost been routine) before may now not be possible because of the increasing size of your bump. Don't let this discourage you. Pick up an illustrated copy of the Karma Sutra. In addition to the spoons, woman on top and rear-entry (doggy) that you may have heard are better during this time; there are dozens/hundreds of other more imaginative ones as well. +Breasts: Just as your fanny may be more sensitive during pregnancy so too likely are your breasts to be. While it is possible especially during the final weeks of pregnancy that any stimulation of the breast especially the nipples may trigger contractions these are likely to be the beneficial Braxton Hicks type that hep to soften the cervix and prepare your body for birth. But as before discuss any specific concerns with your doctor or midwife especially if you have a previous history of pre-mature labour. +Alternatives: As the old saying goes...there is more than one way to skin a cat. If for any reason intercourse is not enjoyable or advisable, then showing affection through oral stimulation can offer an alternative. While there is an extremely rare but serious condition called air embolism that can occur in pregnancy as the result of cunnilingus, it is not a significant worry as long as air is not blown directly into the vagina. But if your partner has had a cold or sore throat it may be advisable to abstain as Beta Strep (Strep B), a growing cause of concern in medical circles because it can result in life- threatening infections in the newborn, can be passed in this way. And there is absolutely no risk to either mother or baby from performing fellatio, even if she chooses to swallow the ejaculate. +Orgasms: The female orgasm may result in a significant tightening of the uterine muscle, but this should not be a concern. This contraction is very similar to Braxton Hicks contractions. The tightness should disperse within about five to ten minutes. There is no need to worry that you are starving the baby of oxygen during this time. Just the opposite in fact, the female orgasm results in a significant increase in blood supply to the uterus. As a result you may notice that the baby is slightly more active afterwards, but this is fine. As for the male orgasm, there are actually chemicals in the male ejaculate which can aid the cervix in softening and ripening (natural version of the ones they use to induce labour in smaller quantities). So it is NOT a myth that sexual intercourse close to term can help kick start labour. +Baby: There is absolutely no scientific or even valid anecdotal evidence of causing either physical or psychological harm to the unborn baby by engaging in sexual relations. All of the jokes and funny stories aside, your child is safely ensconced in your womb. Your cervix prevents any penetration from hurting the foetus throughout the complete term of a normal pregnancy. It may seem odd if junior suddenly starts doing somersaults in there, but this is the result of your increased breathing and heart rate that results in a significantly noticeable proliferation of oxygenated blood to the baby. Just realise that...and have a sense of humour. This is not the last time the baby will interrupt mummy/daddy time. +These nine months are the beginning of your new life-long adventure in parenthood. But they are also probably the last opportunity you have to be 'just' a couple for at least eighteen years...except for occasional dates and trips of course. This new life that the two of you have created together will make you grow and learn in many ways...physical and mental. With good communication and some creativity, they can also be a wonderful time to explore your sexuality or to focus upon other types of intimacy. So explore your options and enjoy these new forms of intimacy." +770,Sex and the Type I Diabetic,dresbach,How To,2013-01-27,2013-01-27,2022-01-04 08:38:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sex-and-the-type-i-diabetic,An essay for those who suffer from nerve degeneration.,"['Diabetes', 'Neuropathy']",4.72,"It's an odd topic, I know, because there isn't any difference between sex with a type I diabetic and anyone not afflicted with the disease. However, there may be complications that arise later, decades down the road, symptomatic of type I diabetes. This little paper will chronicle one of those complications that my wife, S_______, and I have experienced relative to our sex life, and detail what we did to solve the problem. I hope that our story can be of some help to those with similar ailments or problems. +S_______ and I have been married over 20 years, and except for our first year of marriage, she has been a type I diabetic. I should also add that throughout our marriage we've always had a healthy sex life. Oh, we don't screw as often as we used to, having fallen into the quiet comfort of peaceful neglect that creeps into most couples' marriages over time. However, when we do find the time, or when the mood strikes us to make love, it's still with an intensity and passion that even exceeds the erotic feelings we had when we were first married. Familiarity doesn't always breed contempt, for us, in fact, it heightens the romance. +You must understand, I love it when S_______ comes. For me, having her come is the pièce de résistance of sex. I loved how she would lift her hips well off the bed as she neared climax. I loved how, at the moment of her release, she'd grab my head firmly with both her hands, or pull lovingly at my hair, all while moaning loudly and incessantly. Then, there was that sudden rush of her warm ejaculate, flowing freely out for all her openings, while her body violently shuddered. And most of all, I loved it when our lovemaking session was over and she would quickly drifted off into sleep. + _Sweet dreams, love. I mean, who needs the late night, post-coital blab sessions, anyway?_ +Yes, I loved making her come. Not just because of some altruistic intentions that the woman should somehow be served first, or better yet, served first _and_ well—they deserve it, guys—but I had selfish reasons for S_______ climaxing so spectacularly. In many ways, her deep and forceful orgasms bulwark my status as a husband, a lover, and a man. +Yeah, I know, it was _macho man_ thinking, to use a Richard Pryor euphemism— _I put your ass to sleep, I'm Macho Man!_ +I saw it as a 'twofer,' though. I made her melt like jelly on a hot summer day—sticky liquid, sweet, sexual repose—while stroking my ego at the same time. Nothing wrong with that, is there? By the way, to be a true Macho Man, you must strike the Superman pose while saying the above 'euphemism,' with hands on hips and standing over her sated, sleeping form. +Then, about five years ago, our better than average sex life began to change, and change in a most distressing manner for both of us. +It started as a decrease in the intensity of her orgasms, which was quickly followed by reduced sensitivity of her vulva, overall. As we progressed into that first year of decline, what used to take about five to ten minutes of direct clitoral or vaginal stimulation after a good bout of foreplay was extending well into twenty to sometimes thirty minutes of direct stimulation in order for S_______ to achieve orgasm. To make matters worse, even when I was getting her close to coming, or what I perceived as close, given her breathing and squirming, this damnable, internal alarm clock of hers would go off, telling her all this was taking too long. More than anything, this would kill the moment, even more than the length of time it was taking to get her off in the first place. +Trends being what they are, as of a couple of years ago, no amount or combination of fucking, oral stimulation or fingering would work to get her to climax. Not even her own masturbatory techniques would push her over the edge, except on the rare occasions when repeated and prolonged stimulation didn't cause heightened numbness and irritation to her pussy. +The reason for her numbness and overall de-sensitivity is due to diabetic neuropathy, which is a nerve degenerative disease related to long term conditions of diabetes. +In the initial stages of neuropathy, diabetics usually experience severe pain and numbness in their extremities—usually the legs and hands—as nerve endings begin to degrade. As the condition progresses, or worsens, other, more proximal body systems may become affected. In men with the condition, the neuropathy may cause severe erectile dysfunction or even permanent impotency. +S_______ was essentially experiencing the female equivalent of male impotency—her pussy was dying, not to put too fine a point on it, and there wasn't a lot we could do about the problem. +As her condition relates to our sex life, S_______ was becoming worried about my frustration, which was piqued more times than not when that damnable alarm would go off in her head, thus short-circuiting my attempts to bring her to climax. To assuage my feelings, she would tell me that it didn't matter to her whether she came or not. It was sweet of her to say that, but we both knew that was a lie. However, her self-sacrifice aside, it did matter to me. I wanted her to come. +I know this will sound self-serving and maybe a little contrived, but truly, I derived the most pleasure from sex not so much when I got off, but when I got S_______ off. Don't get me wrong, getting a blowjob was always a highpoint for me, but it wasn't as much fun without first hearing her moan, squirm, scream and cream in ecstasy. That's a fact, and she knew it was, and it added to her anxiety. +Worse, my frustration, and her concern for it, was adding mental difficulties along with the physical, and creating a very damaging, negative feedback loop in our sexual relationship. Over time, as it took S_______ longer and longer to achieve orgasm, the interval of time between when we started having sex and when that internal alarm went off, shortened. Once she put a halt to the proceedings, my frustration would mount, making her even more self-conscience of the neuropathy. So that next time the interval of time between when we began lovemaking to when that damnable alarm sounded shortened further, etcetera, _ad infinitum._ It didn't help that I was beginning to anticipate the inevitable alarm going off once we slipped into bed, which was having a negative impact on my own performance. +On top of that, her worry was broadening outside her inability to have an orgasm, and into the more general quarters of our marriage, namely, how long before my frustration with our situation leads me into having an affair? Fears that I might have a wandering eye were causing her even greater anxiety, and, as such, causing that _fucking_ alarm clock to go off even before I had her panties off. + _Well, that was a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much._ +Now, I would never have an affair, certainly not because of reasons beyond either of our control. However, I could tell the possibility of it was ever in the back of her mind. We couldn't insulate ourselves from the myriad of firsthand accounts of extramarital affairs affecting the marriages of our friends and relatives. We knew all about spouses who went out on 'seek and destroy' missions—that is, _seeking_ out what they felt they weren't getting at home, and _destroying_ their marriage in the process. Although she never was specific, I'm sure there were numerous scenarios of potential infidelity on my part playing out in the back of her head— _How long before he goes on one of his own 'seek and destroy' missions?_ +No, I wouldn't dream of having an affair, yet, because of all the problems I've outlined, sex for both of us wasn't fun anymore. It had become a frustratingly, anxiety-laden ritual that both of us were beginning to shy away from. +By now, some of you are probably screaming at your computer screen: _Hey, dummy, try using some marital aids. Sometimes a nice, rabbit vibrator is better than a tongue, ten fingers and a cock, combined._ +Don't you think I would have tried that already? Over the last couple of years, I've spent a small fortune on every conceivable marital gadget known to man and enjoyed by women: from regular vibrators to g-spot vibrators to rabbit vibrators, vaginal vibrating balls, vibrating eggs, clitoral stimulators and, of course, dildos, all in a variety of sizes and shapes. Although we had a modicum of success with some clitoral stimulators—the Hummingbird seemed to work the best—it was never consistent. Sometimes she'd come, most times she wouldn't, and never when _I_ used the device on her. She needed to be in control to have any type of success with it. I didn't mind that. In fact, I like watching her pleasure herself, but it still wasn't working like we hoped. Her climaxing was very sporadic and not nearly as intense as they once were, which continued to add to the frustration, particularly hers. +After all that, sex for us was becoming as infrequent a prospect as going to the dentist, and becoming as much fun—and about as expensive as well, given all the crap I bought. That was until about a year and a half ago. +Yes, there is a happy ending to this story, or, at least, a happy continuation—for nothing has ended yet. +Temporary salvation presented itself when I was viewing some less-than-savory U-Tube videos. Yes, I know, don't judge—and yes, I know, I spelled it wrong for copyright reasons. In one of them, a woman was using, what I considered, an unconventional masturbatory device. I'd seen them used before, but because of their unorthodox shape—they can't be inserted, which I viewed as a negative—I didn't give them a second thought during my first pass through the marital aids. Now, however, seeing the woman using the device in the video, and the loud results, I knew instinctively that if this didn't get my S_______ off, nothing would. +The one I purchased is called _The Wand,_ but I'm sure it's called by other names—things like 'Oh my God, I'm going to squirt!' or 'I know you're just an inanimate object, but will you marry me?' or my personal favorite, 'Sweet mystery of life at last I've found you!' + _The Wand_ is just that, a fairly long, thin stick with variable speed control, and having a very large, bulbous, rubberized knob that vibrates at the top. What is unique about the gadget is that it plugs into the wall. That's right, this wasn't some wimpy, nine volt, battery operated party favor, this contraption was a 120 volt, unadulterated, no-nonsense, orgasm-inducing, cream machine. The only thing that would make it better, was if it had _Black and Decker_ stamped on the side, was gas operated, and came with a primer and pull cord. +The day it was delivered to the house, I prepared something special for S_______, and made reservations at our favorite restaurant. It was a wonderfully romantic dinner. We took our time, lingering over dessert. No rush, no fuss, and besides, I made sure she had at least two Italian Margaritas—her favorite. I wanted her mind at ease, with no hint of self- conscious anxiety rearing its ugly head in the bedroom. + _Liquor is, indeed, quicker..._ +Once we got back to the bedroom, I gave S_______ a nice, long, baby oil back massage, from neck to toes, paying particular attention to her feet and calves. They were giving her real problems of late due to the neuropathy. I also made sure to entice her now and again with a playful finger or tongue slipped into her more sensitive spots—although not as sensitive as they used to be. What with the Margaritas and my massage, she almost fell asleep—at least my tongue kept her somewhat awake. +The moment had arrived. Figuring dear heart was relaxed enough it was time to try out the device. Flipping her over onto her back, I spent a bit more time tonguing her pussy before applying more baby oil to her vulva. +When I first turned on _The Wand,_ the head vibrated so violently that I thought it would be too intense of a sensation even for a desensitized pussy. As such, I just placed it on her mons, just above the start of her vulva. Right away, she begins moaning, and loudly. I'm ecstatic; this is working better than I conceivably hoped. +Oh, she was squirming and moaning and laughing and even crying for joy. She hadn't felt like this in over a year or more, and I hadn't felt this confident and in control for even longer. +I wanted to push her to climax slowly. Too often in the past when I felt her arousal climb, I applied too much stimulation too quickly, desensitizing her to where she lost the feeling—and setting that alarm clock off, of course. So instead of shifting the device directly to her vulva, I pressed the vibrating, bulbous end of the device firmly into her mons with the palm of my hand, while placing a vibrating finger of that same hand just at the base of her clitoris. Thinking this would ramp her up a little further without inadvertently over- stimulating her to the point of numbness. +I was wrong—Oh God, thank you, I was so wrong! +She started coming immediately. I say started, because the damn thing seemed to go on and on, not accompanied with the violent body shakes and spasms like before, but certainly with the full-throated—her mind locked in a sexual frenzy—shrieking of a continual, deep-penetrating orgasm. When she finally quieted down, she lay clutching her knees to her chest, panting heavily. +""Put it in, quick,"" S_______ squeaked out between deep breaths. +That was about as verbally vulgar and 'dirty' as she ever got during lovemaking—always such a shy, proper girl, even when she demanded I fuck her brains out. +I just slipped into her slowly and gently, almost teasingly—again, wanting all this to last—when the most extraordinary thing happened. +S_______ blurted out, ""I'm coming again! Harder!"" +I think she said that a couple more times that night. Sweet mystery of life...her words still ring in my ears, as do many others that have been uttered, subsequent. It's been over a year since that night, and our lovemaking sessions have all been as good, if not better than that first time. +I'm not sure who the inventors or designers of _The Wand_ are, but if given the chance, I will personally kiss their ass from one end of the country to the other in thanks. +I may be nearing the end of this essay, but our story is not over. Certainly there are no happy endings for us just yet, only continuations—good and bad. +Unfortunately, the neuropathy continues to afflict S_______, and we have noticed a renewed desensitization of her vulva. The progress is slow toward total numbness, but I believe, inexorable. I could be wrong. I hope I am, but I'm a realist. The trends in her neuropathy are sloping toward full numbness of her honey pot, although I think that it's still a ways down the road. In the meantime, _The Wand_ still provides good stimulation. And if by chance or providence it doesn't do the job anymore or do it as effectively, maybe by then some enterprising company will have finally come out with that gas- powered vibe—one attached to a four barrel, four-forty—and if not, I guess I'll have to build one myself. +I hope I could be of some help to some of you. I imagine that the problem and temporary solution I've described could be used with anyone suffering from a nerve degenerative disease other than that caused by type I diabetes. The main thing to remember is to have patients. Your partner, who may be suffering with this condition, doesn't want it any more than you, and is probably equally as frustrated. Continue to find solutions and to try different things. I believe if you continue to try, you will find something that works, and when you do, keep with it and have fun. +Best regards, +a.m. dresbach" +771,Sex Ed 101: Cunnilingus,bluefox07,How To,2007-08-06,2007-08-06,2022-01-04 08:38:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sex-ed-101-cunnilingus,"What to do, what not to do, & why the Fonz is the man.","['Cunnilingus Advice', 'Cunnilingus How-To', 'How To Eat Pussy', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Oral Sex How-To', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex Technique']",4.48,"Cunnilingus. +What is it? +Some believe it's an economy car from Holland that is low on exhaust emissions, high on performance and easy on gas mileage. Some believe it is the casual name of the Bohemian goddess Lililabiana, the guardian of all things vaginal. Others put forth the theory that cunnilingus is a shortened slang term for a cunning, well read linguist. There are even those that believe it is the alias for 1903 vintage porn star and part time haberdasher Gus Liunnnic, from Hoboken, New Jersey. +I pose the question, ""What is it?"" for a simple reason. Most guys don't know what it is, and if they do it's only a very elementary understanding at best. Don't take offense fellas, but let's face it: the average male's understanding of the art of oral sex is about as comprehensive as a review of ""War and Peace"" written by Ed Grimly and edited by that guy from ""Sling Blade."" +There are a lot of misconceptions about what to do and not to do when it comes to performing oral sex. Porn would have us believe that achieving a gut busting, honey squirting orgasm can be done by simply playing with your lover's clit and applying healthy dose of random tongue play and finger banging. Of course, porn would also have us believe that you, a mere pizza delivery driver, actually have a chance to score with that one hot MILF out on Bumfuck Drive if you simply bring her a sausage pizza and a twinkle in your eye. +Guys, we all wish that our simple presence would be enough to give her that one electrifying orgasm. But things don't work that way. Like anything worthwhile, cunnilingus requires practice and a willingness to learn. +By no means am I some expert, and I won't pretend I am. If this were TV Land, I'd be closer to being Ritchie Cunningham than the Fonz. They never came out and said it, but you know the Fonz knew his way around the female nether regions. The man had a finesse and confidence that one can only have if he knows what he is doing. True, in my youth I looked more like Ralph Mouth, but better that than being Potsie. How Potsie ever got laid is beyond me... +Yet I digress. +I'm just an average guy who has had the luck to be with some women that had the patience to teach me. I lost my virginity at age 19 to a 39-year-old blonde bombshell massage therapist named Tracy who looked like a 36-year-old blonde bombshell massage therapist named Tracy. She was gorgeous, sexy and adventurous. I think that probably explains why she decided to fuck a 19 year old virgin. Still, for six months she trained me and her lessons have served me well ever since. +Now, I pass this knowledge on to you... I mean, if you're reading this you've finished rotating your socks, put all the toilet paper in nice little stacks under the sink in the bathroom and there's nothing good on QVC right now. So pull up a chair and have a beer, young man. Get ready to hear some advice you probably already know. +What's important to remember is every woman is different. Some are very inhibited and may not want you down there. Don't pressure her, for God sakes. You can suggest it, and even talk about how much you'd like to, but don't make her feel bad about it. Other women see it as a requirement. You may laugh at this, but guys, when was the last time you had sex and didn't get a blow job? What would be your reaction if you didn't get a blow job from your woman? +Tit for tat, boys. Tit for tat. +So, here are 8 very simple rules I hold myself to when I'm going down on a woman.

No, of course you don't. You enjoy the meal and relish it. Men, going down on a woman is a fantastic experience, and you want her to enjoy every moment of it as much as you do. Don't waste it. You should be on your desperate little knees thanking God that a woman has gone this far with you, let alone even wants you down there. That being said, unless there's a special occasion or she's already aroused to the point of tearing the sheets off your bed with her toes, DO NOT go directly for the clit. That would be like your woman just sucking your cock into her mouth and playing with your head like it was a chew toy. +You need to be mindful of where she's at, her body language and her vocalizations. Here are some surefire signs you're NOT doing this right: +1\. She looks down and asks, ""When is 'Charles in Charge' going to be on?"" +2\. She yawns and pats your head gently. +3\. She's painting her toe nails. +4\. She asks, ""Are you almost done?"" +5\. She paints your toenails. +6\. She turns the television on to watch ""Family Feud."" +7\. She says offhandedly, ""That's not how your dad does it..."" +8\. She finishes knitting that sweater for your grandmother. +9\. She asks if she can pop that zit on your back. +10\. She says offhandedly, ""That's not how your mother does it..."" +11\. She's looking at your dog Scruffy longingly as he licks his balls. +You need to make her want it. She needs to want your mouth down there so badly it makes your need for a blow job seem like a passing fancy. Before you decided to grace your tongue over her most sensitive of regions, make the effort to caress her and kiss her. You have two hands, so use them. She has an entire body there just waiting to be enjoyed. Suckle on her breasts as you massage her thighs and trace your fingers over her outer lips. +Now, if you've been able to do all of the above, then you know it's safe to proceed. Still, the name of the game is building up tension. Go slow and firmly. Use your tongue on her thighs; even suckling on the tender meat of the inner thigh can create an incredible sensation. A thoughtful massage of her mound and a gentle grazing of the fingers below to her ass can go a long way. Plant hot, wet kisses around her lips and give her slit a long, slow lick from one end to the other. Put her thighs up on your shoulders and massage her breasts, tweaking her nipples as you eat her out. You want to be able to taste her, to be able to feel how aroused she's getting. Listen to her voice, the moans and sounds she's making. +*IMPORTANT! Relaxation and comfort are of key importance here, but beware. Some women can become too relaxed and break wind (i.e. blow an ass clapper, rectal whistle, angry duckling, muddy nelson, toot, beefy breeze or fart). Should this happen, withdraw immediately and abort the mission. REPEAT: ABORT THE MISSION. A loving facial expression and willingness to the let the air clear between you both is essential. No matter what, neither you nor your woman wants you down there when the duck quacks.* +RULE #3: NO SHARP OBJECTS +Make sure your fingernails are clipped and rounded, guys. Nothing ruins the mood for your woman more than having Freddy Krueger finger bang her with his right hand. +RULE #4: LET YOUR FINGERS DO THE WALKING, LET YOUR EYES DO THE TALKING +A good finger fucking goes hand in hand with oral sex. +That being said, be gentle. When your woman is aroused and wet enough, you'll be able to feel it. Gently insert a finger or two to start out, and play with her. Again, listen to the sounds she makes. How is she moving her hips? Is she getting wetter? Does she want to take a break for lunch? +How you use your fingers will depend on the woman. I have an ex-girlfriend who immediately after an orgasm during oral sex wanted three fingers in her pussy pounding away like a jackhammer. She wanted it rough and powerful. This led to her squirting so hard that it was like a fountain. Other women won't need or even want that kind of stimulation. Never assume. +Look into her eyes if you can. Eye contact is essential. Nothing is sexier than when you're making eye contact and doing something as sexually intimate as this. Think about it, guys. When your woman is sucking your cock, is she meeting your eyes? Nine times out of ten she is. There's truth in that look, and you know automatically that you're both enjoying this equally. +The eyes and the fingers have it. +RULE #5: THE TONGUE TECHNIQUE +There is no set way to use your tongue. +Again, don't believe what you see in a porno flick. A woman's clit is very sensitive and usually requires a lot of arousal before you can go ape shit on it. If you jump the gun and go for the clit, you're risking a cancellation on all the wonderful things to come. The clit is a hot spot, but truthfully, there is an entire vagina there to be licked, nibbled and suckled on. It's true, your woman will probably want you to spend a good amount of time working on her clit, but don't let that hang you up by being overzealous. +Here are some helpful hints: +1\. BE CREATIVE +Don't just do the same thing over and over again like you're licking an ice cream cone. Lapping is an awesome move, especially when your woman is so aroused that she's literally dripping, but it should be used in moderation. Try new things and experiment on her. Listen to how she responds, and if you can, look into her eyes to see her reaction. You'll know when you're hitting her sweet spot with the right technique. +2\. DON'T BE AFRAID TO MESS UP +Learning is half the fun. If you're in a new relationship, it'll take time to figure your woman out. Have the confidence to take any suggestions or constructive criticism she might have to offer. Most women won't mind telling you if you're doing something they don't like. And who knows, you might just stumble on something she likes. +3\. GENTLY NOW +Suckling and nibbling on the lips and clit is tricky business, but can be very pleasurable for your woman if you do it with care. If she likes it rough, she'll let you know. But never assume she does. You know how you would feel if she chewed the bark of your log right off the bat. +4\. BREATHING +Seriously, guys. Breathing and relaxing the jaw can allow you to go for a long time without getting sore. In the beginning, I could only eat my lover out for maybe 10 minutes at a time before taking a rest because my jaw hurt. Now, I can stay down there for up to a half hour and longer if my lover is willing, teasing and playing with her. I love eating pussy, and for me it's one of the biggest turn-ons I know. So take your time and relax and breathe. +RULE #6: THE MYTHIC G-SPOT +The G-spot, like the clit, is a hot spot. Put your finger inside her with your palm facing up. Curl you finger and feel for a difference in the membrane of her vaginal wall. It's usually towards the top of the wall and has a kind of spongy, bumpy quality to it. You can usually tell you've found it by her reaction. Personally, I tend to rub and rhythmically press on this spot, playing with it and teasing it as she gets more and more aroused. You can give your woman some mind blowing orgasms by loving on her G-Spot. Again, if you want to see your woman squirt, this is a great way to make it happen. Mind you, all women are different, so this may not apply all across the board. +RULE #7: KNOCKING AT THE BACK DOOR +I've been with a few women who enjoyed having their anus played with during oral sex. If you're going to do this, make sure she's lubed up. Whether it is a finger or a dildo, smooth and well-greased passage will guarantee your woman won't have problems sitting down the next day. +RULE #8: USE YOUR VOCAL CHORDS +Sometimes the moaning and groaning of your voice against her pussy can be very stimulating. Slurping sounds and lapping like a dog can add a lot of frosting to an already irresistible dessert. Don't be afraid to let her know she is the best thing you've ever tasted, and if you could you'd bottle her nectar up and use it for a power drink. Let her know how much you enjoy going down on her. It will build her confidence and make the experience more enjoyable. When a man can show how he feels it allows his lover to open up more and relish the experience. +RULE #9: A THICK BUSH IS ROUGH GOING +This one is for the ladies... +There are as many variations on the upkeep of pubic hair as there are women. I prefer a woman who keeps her pubes trimmed and short. A thick bush of hair can be difficult for a guy to get through, and can even be a turn off. To be delicate, women are just like guys in the respect that too much hair can lead to an unpleasant scent. No one says you have to be shaved bare (though that does allow for your man to lick more of you), but a nicely trimmed thatch of hair is erotic and much easier to work with. +...and besides, there's nothing worse than choking on pubic hairballs. +*** +The act of cunnilingus is without a doubt one of the most intimate actions that can take place between two people. It's a complete breaking down of taboo and expectation, a most intimate revelation of your partner's sexuality. The act can draw you and your woman closer than you ever thought possible. It promotes better sex and provides an infinite number of possibilities. Don't be afraid to tell her how much you enjoy it. Don't be afraid to let yourself enjoy it, too, guys. +And on that note, I'm gonna go take a cold shower now." +772,Sex Prep 101,BatsandGlamour,How To,2014-02-07,2014-02-07,2022-01-04 08:38:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sex-prep-101,Has it been a while?

The truth is, I haven't felt passionate about adding anything to what I've already written; nothing that would be useful to the good people on this site. +I do now, though. And I'm excited about it, because this is by request. Yes, I've been asked to cover a topic. +If you haven't had sex in a while, or perhaps have never had sex, it's natural to feel some anxiety. Maybe a lot of anxiety. With all the expectations out there, all the readily accessible porn, all the stories, all the sex in movies, on television, cable TV and radio, it's easy to feel like you have to be an expert to please your lover. In fact, the media make it seem as though everyone is a great lover. A sex scene may take 30 seconds on screen, but the smiling faces afterwards always communicate that something epic just happened, and it's the most natural thing in the world. That it's always that way. And it can be, don't get me wrong. The right chemistry, the right people, the right mood and feelings and desire...it's rocking and rolling and the best feeling in the world. Beyond. +But what if, as I began to say, it's been a while. You feel unprepared. You're out of practice, out of rhythm and feeling more than a little self conscious about it. Then this article is for you. I'm going to break down what some of the typical fears or issues are, and what you can do to overcome them. If you follow my advice, there's _no way_ you won't be a better lover. And isn't that what we all want? To rock somebody's world? To make them long for more of what you have to give? And to be pleasured in ways you've always wanted to be? I thought so. +Let's get started. + **Take the Pressure Off** +Some things don't seem to end well before they even begin. You know what I mean. When you're predicting disaster, it seems to follow that disaster will find you. When you think about it, it makes perfect sense. When you feel that something, whether it's sex, a date, or a job interview (they're kind of the same thing, one is just wetter), is going to go poorly, you simply cannot be at your best or close to it. You're predicting awkwardness, discomfort, failure or at least a lack of success. +Well, the Universe has a bad habit of giving you exactly what you ask for. If you predict a bad, uncomfortable experience, what are the chances it will be awesome and inspiring? But if, instead, you predict an amazing experience, it will far more likely be just that. I speak from personal experience here. If you feel or even somehow know that the sex you're about to have will be something to remember, something that will make you hot all over again just thinking about, it usually will be. You'll somehow move differently, act differently, and feel more intuitive and natural about what you do. Take it easy on yourself. You can do this. It's not that hard. Pardon my pun. + **Feel Good About Yourself** +Again, this is where the media and perhaps your own expectations can be your enemy. Women come in all shapes and sizes. Thank God they come in all shapes and sizes. Maybe the shape and size you are isn't what it was when you were younger (or if you ARE younger, maybe your body just isn't what you were hoping it would be). Here's the good news: so what? Just as every guy doesn't have eye-popping muscles and washboard abs (but enough about my attributes), not every woman is a size 2 with huge, perfect tits and a body that would make Barbie hot for you. If you have those attributes, wonderful. You lucked out. But they are far from what will make you a good lover. +You _do_ have to learn to feel good in your own skin. Comfortable with the way you look. I don't mean you shouldn't strive to look your best and be healthy. Wear makeup, dress nicely and make the best of what you have. Of course you should. But if you're waiting to look perfect, stop waiting now. It's not great beauty that is a long-term or even short-term turn on. Plenty of great beauties fail at relationship after relationship. The secret is something more primal, and we'll get to it. Just know that feeling good about yourself, and displaying that feeling, is the biggest turn on there is. I know that for me, when I'm with people, my wit and intelligence are more attractive than just having a nice body or looking like a movie star. If those looks aren't backed up by personality, the whole package is an empty shell. Personality makes or breaks attraction. + **Kiss Me, Baby** +The first sensual impression you'll make with someone is the kiss. That kiss, that first meaningful kiss, can really set you up as a woman who knows what sexuality really is. Sometimes a kiss can be so hot that nothing else compares. Do you want to kiss like that? You can. +The most important thing to do when kissing is keep your lips soft. This means pressing lightly. I know you've seen kisses that appear to be like acts of assault. Passion is one thing. Technique is another. When you kiss someone ""hard,"" you lose the most sensual thing about your lips—their softness. Why are guys attracted to women with large, full lips, like Angelina Jolie's (well, other than the thought of those lips wrapped around our cock...but I digress)? Because they look so soft and inviting. Keep them soft. Hold his face in your hands, so you can control the pressure, and kiss him passionately, but lightly, keeping your lips soft. Use your tongue slowly and deliberately, not like an iguana searching for food. When you give a soft, sensual, arousing kiss, it's a sure bet that he's wondering what else you're SO good at. Kiss him softly. You'll make him crazy for you. + **Be Interactive** +Everything in our world is interactive today, right? iPads, smartphones, videogames; you name it. It's all about the user experience. Why should people be any different? And yet there are plenty of women who somehow cling to the old-fashioned notion that just ""being there"" naked and willing is enough. +It's not. +Be there in body, yes, but also in mind, heart and spirit. Present yourself (or at least your pussy) to him in all different ways. Instead of him—if he knows what he's doing—putting your body into doggie, scissors, side or missionary position, you do it. Is there anything hotter than a girl who says ""Wait, give it to me from behind, baby""? That's July in Phoenix, Arizona hot. The physical benefit for you is your pussy being stimulated from different angles, which will feel amazing. The psychological benefit is that he'll think, ""Wow, she knows what she likes,"" which is both hot and cool at the same time. Now, I'm not suggesting you currently lie there waiting for him to do what he wants to you and thinking that he loves it. He'll probably like it, sure. But he'll love a girl who gets on all fours, practically shoves her pussy in his face and says, ""Pull my hair and fuck me hard."" Sizzling. + **Shout it Out Loud** +Good sex isn't silent sex, and silent sex isn't good sex. It works that way. Let me clarify. You watch a porn and get the idea that someone is in the process of being murdered. She's screaming like someone just stole her dog. It's ridiculous. But imagine for a minute that it was like a silent movie. You could hear her breathing but there were no words, no sound, nothing to convey the passion she's feeling. You'd turn it off after a minute. In real life, it will turn him off after a minute, too. +Moaning is nice; moaning is good. Words of passion are even better. I'm not suggesting you put on a show and say things like ""your cock feels so good, you feel so good inside of me,"" the entire time. Frankly, it's distracting. But when you moan and say things like ""Oh yeah, oh God, oh my God, that feels so fucking good...,"" and it's genuine, it makes your lover feel that's he's doing a great job in satisfying you and, believe me, we all want that reinforcement. +I clearly remember rimming my lover (for those of you who aren't familiar with giving and receiving this bliss, it means licking around her asshole) when she turned her head to me and said in the most seductive of voices, ""That's hot, baby."" Boom. I was there. And speaking of which... + **The Voice** +No, not the television show. Yes, I know you think Adam Levine is hot. You've heard the term ""bedroom voice."" It's true. When you switch from your office, talking to your friends, talking to the kids, talking to your parents' voice and flip into passion mode, your voice should flip, too. Try and make it a little lower, a little softer, a little slower. Just try and say the words, ""That's hot, baby,"" in your regular everyday voice. I'll wait. Okay fine, now let me hear you say it in your throws of passion, half pleading, half choked with desire voice. Did you do it? Can you hear the difference? Your lover sure will. When you change from mother, daughter, student, office voice into sex- crazed, passionate lover voice, not only do you sound different, you feel different as well. It's all part of how acting the way want to feel will make you feel the way you act. Act confident, walk confidently, and speak, when the moment is right, with the tone of voice that says, ""I've never felt hotter for anyone,"" and you can melt a polar icecap. + **Keep Your Eye on the Ball(s)** +I'm sorry, I couldn't resist the pun. You can keep your eyes wherever you want, but keep them open and preferably looking into his. It helps cement the connection between you. When your eyes are closed when you're fucking, who knows what you're thinking? Maybe you wish you weren't there. Maybe you wish you were with Leonardo Dicaprio. Maybe you're thinking about what you have to do at work tomorrow. Not hot. +What _is_ hot is when you look your lover in the eyes as much as possible. I must again allude to porn. I swear I'm not a porn addict (""Really, ma!"") but one of the key things you can take from porn is the amount of eye contact the women make. They look into his eyes when they're sucking his cock. They'll stare through him as he's fucking her (Let's combine a technique here—while looking at him, tell him how good it feels, tell him when you're getting close to cumming; tell him everything but your social security number.), they'll even turn their head and look behind them, into his eyes, when he's fucking her doggie style. Incredibly hot. It means you're laser focused on pleasing him, and totally into the moment. Many girls won't follow this advice. That's fine. Because when you do, it will set you apart. +**Desire—The Key Ingredient** +Desire is your secret weapon, the ultimate ingredient in having not good sex, but great sex. Indeed, it IS the difference between the two. You can't fake it, manufacture it, or turn it off. I would rather be with a girl with strong desire—a strong sex drive—who wants to please and be pleased in every way and is open minded, than the most beautiful supermodel in the world, if that is the choice. +Desire, to me, doesn't come and go or wear out over time. If you're with the right person, who loves sex as much as you do, who wants and NEEDS to please and be pleased, the feeling may never end. What I'm telling you is that if you have the desire—and I'm assuming you do if you're reading these words—then all the remaining tips will fall naturally into place. +How will you know? If you've ever stood an inch from your lover, both of you literally trembling to touch each other, that's desire. When you wake up in the middle of the night, or first thing in the morning and it's Go Time, that's desire. When you feel like you just have to make it through day so you be together again...you get the picture. When it's real, it's amazing. Breathtaking. + **Afterglow** +The end of a sexual encounter, whether you're with a boyfriend, spouse, or new lover, can be very telling. Do they practically get up and run away? Do you? I'm not judging one way or the other, believe me. I think that when you lay there in each other's arms for a little while, it could be 5 minutes or it could be all night, it's a very nice way to come down. I hope you've enjoyed it. Please remember there is no right or wrong, unless someone's bleeding or on the way to the hospital. Being good is very nice. Being bad is even better.

Sex wasn't discussed openly in my family, so I was left to form my ideas about sex from movies and anecdotes from friends. Naturally, I had a lot of unrealistic expectations about sex and it's taken me many years to feel comfortable thinking about and expressing my sexuality. +I don't want the next generation of women in my family to go into their relationships with the same ignorance and misinformation that I did – so I've started talking. +This is 'The Sex Talk' I wrote up for my niece when she was planning to pop her cherry. It's not 'advice' as such – but a list of terms & topics to think about before your first time. It could also be a useful conversation-starter for women who are starting a new relationship or wanting to re-think some aspects of their sex life with their current partner. +INTRODUCTION +Sex is not Magical Love Paradise. Just like every other aspect of life, there are times it can be great, okay or downright awkward. Somebody will fart. Somebody will touch a spot that just doesn't feel right. Somebody will orgasm too soon – or not at all – leaving one or both of you dissatisfied. It's how you deal with those situations that can turn it into a positive experience and not a negative one. +Here is a glossary of ideas to think about & talk about with your partner, which will help you establish an honest, trusting, satisfying, and exciting sex life together. +1\. Holding hands & hugging – Don't underestimate the value of physical touch – or even close proximity without physical touch. If you are in tune with one another, these simple forms of intimacy can be emotionally affirming & romantically rewarding. +2\. Kissing – Lips on lips, or lips on other parts of the body. Sex is most fun when your whole body gets involved. There are lots of sensitive parts of the body to discover together – neck, back, hips, feet, elbows, breasts, etc. You can enhance this experience with scented massage oils or edible body paint – or go au natural. +3\. Foreplay – Whatever you do to get & stay in the mood. This can range from cues as simple as eye contact, verbal affirmation or non-sexual touch, to any of the items listed in this glossary (and a many more – use your imagination!) +Side note on Foreplay - Honest Communication: +Your partner wants to please you & might have some good guesses of what you will enjoy, but you have to tell him what does or doesn't work for you. +-If he's doing something you like – carry on! +-If he's doing something that's nearly right – guide him so he's spot on. (You can make suggestions verbally or simply move him like a puppet – whatever works best for both of you.) +-If he's doing something that feels weird or uncomfortable – tell him (nicely) right away. If you act like you're enjoying it because you don't want to interrupt the moment/offend his ego, he will continue on in ignorance, thinking he's rocking your world. It might even become a standard move in his repertoire so nip it in the bud! +-If he isn't doing something you would like him to do – ask (nicely) or just guide his hands/body to give him the hint. +-These pointers work on the flipside too – let him know you're open to guidance in finding ways to make him feel amazing. +4\. Penetration – Will it hurt? Not necessarily. Will you bleed? Not necessarily. Everyone is different. Go with the flow & keep communicating. If it's uncomfortable, ask him to slow down and give you time to adjust. If it's actually painful, reverse a step and go back to foreplay – your body will work with you better if you are relaxed. Your body produces its own lubrication – for some girls that is all they need, but you may find you need some extra help. You can buy a bottle of lubricant from the supermarket and keep it in your bag just in case. This can be useful for your first time, or if you are a bit tender after multiple sessions, or just to try out a different sensation. (Tip: lubricant can be sticky. Use sparingly & add more if you need it.) +5\. Orgasm – Women can typically have two types of orgasm. Clitoral (external) & vaginal (internal). If you're very lucky you can get both at the same time. Achieving orgasm is not a guaranteed thing every time you have sex – sometimes it can take a long time for a woman to achieve orgasm or it may elude her completely. +Tips to increase your chances of achieving O: +-Start from a good mental space. If you are annoyed with your partner you won't be in the right frame of mind to relax and be trusting physically and emotionally. +-Indulge in lots of foreplay before penetration. (Women are more likely to reach orgasm from direct clitoral stimulation than penetration – that said, if your partner is coordinated enough to do both at the same time you have hit the jackpot.) +-Know thyself – set aside some private time to experiment with yourself. If you are comfortable with the way your clitoris looks/feels, and learn how to use it confidently, then you have hugely increased your chances of showing your partner what to do with it. +-Don't think about it – Relax. Have fun. If you get there, that's great! If you don't, you can always try again later. +Special talents: +-Some women can achieve multiple orgasms in a row. Just because you've had one doesn't mean it has to be over. You can keep going and see if your body gives you another. +-Some women can achieve orgasm from stimulation of the G-spot (essentially pressing on the clitoris from the inside). There are lots of articles online on the mechanics of this if you'd like to try it. +-Some women can experience female ejaculation – if the orgasm is especially intense you may ejaculate clear fluid from glands near the urethra. It is not wee, but there may be enough to leave a sizeable damp patch on the sheets, which can be quite disconcerting if you are not expecting it. +6\. Common Sex Positions – There are lots of ways to do it. The standard ones are; +-Missionary – boy on top +-Cowgirl – girl on top +-Doggy – boy behind +-Standing – may be face-to-face or boy behind. If the boy is buff he can carry the girl. +You aren't restricted to one position during sex – shift around whenever you feel like it. Once you try the basics, there are lots of ways to vary them. There is no right/wrong way to do it – though you will find your own favourites. +7\. Oral Sex +-Fellatio – Girl's mouth on boy's bits. You can use this as an element of foreplay to the main event or as the main event itself. The testes/perineum/anus can be very sensitive for some guys so you can experiment with touching if he is comfortable with that. (Tips: Semen can taste somewhat salty or bitter - dependant on diet. Some people are comfortable swallowing it, others aren't. Do what feels right for you.) +-Cunnilingus – Boy's mouth on girl's bits. You can use this as an element of foreplay to the main event or as the main event itself. In addition to the clitoris, the labia/vagina/perineum/anus can be very sensitive for some girls so he can experiment with touching if you are comfortable with that. Some guys love this activity. Others find it a bit intimidating. (Tips: If you are feeling self-conscious, have a shower beforehand so you feel fresh. If you are worried about flavour/odour, you can use a scented or flavoured lubricant. Trimming/waxing your hair down there can also give you an extra confidence boost, but this is completely down to personal preference. You can lie down, sit on the edge of a bed/chair or even stand - whatever is most comfortable. Visual communication can be limited, so you may need to communicate vocally or physically to let him know if he's doing it right.) +-69 – Fellatio & Cunnilingus at the same time – physically challenging, especially if there is a significant height difference, but twice the fun. +-Rimming – Oral stimulation of anus. Some people find this extremely arousing – to others it's just gross. If you do want to give it a try, good personal hygiene is imperative. +8\. Anal Sex – This idea may repulse you, or make you feel curious. This may involve external touching, penetration of fingers, penis or another object. In the event that either of you would like to experiment with anal sexual activity, there are a few must-know tips. +Health & Safety: +-Don't get anything stuck up there. (The human bum has strong muscles that will either push something out or suck it in. If you want to put something in a bottom that is not fingers/penis attached to the other person's body, it is advisable to us an adult toy specifically designed for the purpose. Emergency doctors have crazy stories about what people get stuck in their bottoms. The most disturbing example I heard about was a frozen chicken.) +-It is important that no bacteria from the anus enters the vagina or you can get a nasty bacterial infection. (i.e. don't touch/penetrate the anus and then touch/penetrate the vagina without washing thoroughly first). +Comfort: Same advice for first time sex – go slowly. Use lubricant. Stop if you experience discomfort/pain. +CLOSING THOUGHTS +Good sex is a vital part of a healthy relationship, so make it a part of your normal conversation. Reflect together on what you enjoy the most. Discuss any issues or worries you might have. Suggest new ways you'd like to try it. (When the mind-blowing excitement of just seeing your partner naked starts to wane, there are lots of ways to keep it fresh – positions/locations/toys – the possibilities are endless). +Reserve the right to change your mind. Something that weirds you (or him) out now might end up being your favourite thing in a few months/years. Be willing to try new things – and retry them again at a later date to double-check if you might like it. +So, enough talking... Go and have fun!" +775,Sexercise,SteelAndSilk,How To,2011-12-17,2011-12-17,2022-01-04 08:38:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sexercise-2,Some hot ways to make exercise fun!,"['Exercise', 'Sexercise']",4.15,"Well, hello again and welcome back! Unless you're reading my stuff for the first time, of course. If that's the case, glad to meet you. +So, a short time ago, I wrote an article about being sexy for women. In that article, I mentioned exercise, as in working out together. Having only introduced it as a concept, I didn't really get into techniques and ideas, so I thought I would expand on that in this article, cleverly entitled Sexercise (at least I hope it's clever). +Now, to start, a bit of a disclaimer. Some of the ideas I will share might be a bit dangerous if done improperly. Therefore, any and everything I suggest is done _one-hundred percent at your own risk_. I am completely without responsibility, unless you happen to have a fuck-load of sexy fun, in which case, feel free to spare me a passing thought! +First, let's very briefly cover why we exercise in the first place. Staying healthy is simply a positive side effect for any red-blooded man, so don't even bother giving me that shit. You want to look hot for your woman, and good for you. Whether she likes big and beastly, or a lean, ripped machine, you want to provide the goods. You want her to keep in shape and looking sexy, right? So you, being the real man you are, want to return the favor. Well, I applaud you. Besides looking good, working out also builds strength, which provides the ability to get into all manner of fun positions. +Also, there is a very appealing aspect to someone who exercises. Even if you're not in the best shape yet, you're trying to get there, and you're taking care of yourself. That, for the most part, is a hell of a lot more attractive than someone who sits around not giving a damn about their self. +I would also like to point something out about men when we work out without you, ladies. Now, I can't speak for women, not being a woman, but I can say that for men, working out makes us rather primal. Of course, I'm talking about real, hardcore working out, the kind that forces you to run on nothing but fumes. So, ladies, while it makes us look great for you, it also basically turns us into cavemen. Thickheaded, dimwitted, ""Ugg smash"" cavemen. Seriously, even simple, basic motor functions become difficult, like we have trouble dialing a fucking phone (assuming you're doing it right). We don't mean to be chauvinistic, but we kinda lose anything but survival sense, so we might come across as rude and dickish when we're done. So when we come back in the house, unless you're next words are ""Do you want something to eat?"" or ""Hey, stud, let's fuck,"" it's probably best to let us slam that protein shake and jump in the shower before you talk to us about anything (FYI, if you do greet your man with the ""let's fuck"" line, you go in the wife hall of fame). +Also, don't forget that sex in and of itself is great exercise. I've heard several different figures, but the most consistent I've heard is that for two average sized people, vigorous sex (and why would you want any other kind?) burns two hundred calories an hour. I'm not saying use it to replace exercise, but it's a great addition to whatever else you're already doing. +So, in my previous article, I talked about working out together as a way to be sexy. I'll not get into it again, feel free to read it yourself. Moving past what I went over before, let's get into a few specific and advanced techniques. Also, the following lends itself well to being part of a role- play, if you like. Perhaps pretending you met in the gym, or playing personal trainer to each other. +So first, get your ass naked. Clothing is unnecessary, and really just a hindrance, for these exercises. The first couple moves are basic, just push ups and sit ups. For sit ups, hold each others legs and just add a kiss each time your partner completes a rep, or for ladies, position yourself so your man's face gets pressed into your breasts. For push ups, it varies. Women, put your hands on your man's chest, and perform your push ups as you would normally. It's sexy and arousing to have your breasts press against his chest each time you come down. If you're strong enough to hold yourself at the bottom, add a kiss or lick each rep. Men, don't put your hands on your woman's chest, rather put them by her sides, with her holding your forearms. Position yourself so when you descend, your cock strokes her pussy. Fun for both of you! +For the next move, you'll need to have a weight bench and weights. This happens to be one of those possibly hazardous moves I mentioned, so be careful. Men, lay down on the bench like you would for a bench press. Have your lady mount and start riding you. Now, as she's fucking you, start bench pressing. Certainly use a lower weight than normal, but high enough to make your muscles bulge and strain for your woman's viewing pleasure. Women, you can bench as well while getting fucked, or you can simply hold the bar for balance and position. Also, if you want to give your man a very special treat, while you're riding him during his bench press, have one of your hot girlfriends strip down and spot him! +For both men and women, you can do dumbbell curls while your partner gives you a reach around. Be careful while you lower the weights, though. A fast dumbbell to the thigh or knee is going to be one hell of a turn-off, so again, use a weight heavy enough to give you a workout, but light enough so you have total control through the whole movement. Don't forget that your continued Sexercise fun is pretty reliant on neither of you getting injured at any point. You can use oral sex in this exercise, but the groin area is usually the first to get nasty when you sweat, so if you do go with oral, make it the first thing you do (unless either of you have a fetish for that sort of thing, hell, there's plenty of weirder fetishes out there). +Beyond that, experiment around with the idea of fucking while working out. Depending on how strong each of you is, you could do a lot of fun stuff with pull ups, dips, etc. Use your imagination! Stay safe, of course, and be creative. The point of this isn't just to do new stuff, it also can give a hell of an incentive to work out, and make the time you spend a lot more fun. Enjoy, and if you get the chance, let me know how you like it. Happy fucking!" +776,Sexing the Serpent,al_Ussa,How To,2010-05-02,2010-05-02,2022-01-04 08:38:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sexing-the-serpent,"A guide to sex with lamia, naga and other snake women.","['Fantasy', 'Lamia', 'Mythology', 'Naga']",4.19,"They are the creatures of myth and legend. The earliest civilizations -- the ancient Egyptians, Chinese, Indians, Aztecs, Mayans and a thousand others -- knew them by many names. Names that even today inspire both fascination and dread in the hearts of men. They are the snake women, creatures of unearthly beauty who tempt men to their doom beneath the waves, yet who also offer wisdom, wealth and incredible erotic experiences to those that they deem worthy of such things. +Serpent women -- who seem to be far more easily encountered than their male counterparts -- can be both beautiful and deadly. Some can be quite receptive towards advances by human males, if perhaps a little bemused or curious. Indeed, the author can cite numerous personal experiences to this effect. Others, however, continue to hold themselves aloof from all warm-blooded races. A few can even be downright malicious, using their charms to wantonly manipulate and kill male suitors. For this reason, readers are urged to use their judgment in any given encounter. +Adventurers seeking to make love to snake women must go ever further into the wilderness to find them, for they are an elusive race and the steady advance of man's civilization has pushed them further and further from known lands. Still, they might yet be found in the most distant corners of the globe, such as in the Amazon rainforest, the Congo, and the jungles of India and Southeast Asia. Like their cold-blooded relatives, the snake people prefer a warm tropical climate. They thrive in the jungles and swamps around the equator. +However, unlike normal reptiles, the serpent people are as intelligent as man (if not more intelligent than him) and they possess their own civilization and culture. Some few serpent folk still can be found amongst the cities of man, though this is increasing rare these days. Still others prefer to dwell in cities of their own kind, some few of which are still known to exist in India, Arabia, Egypt and other portions of the Orient. Wise adventurers should show the utmost caution and deference around such sites, as the serpent folk rightly regard most mortals as unwanted interlopers at best. +Furthermore, many races of serpent people exhibit a strange, almost supernatural affinity for water. The most aloof of their race are said to reside beneath rivers, lakes and oceans worldwide, where they can safely resist unwanted incursions from land-dwelling races. Once again, adventurers should be aware that an angry serpent woman could easily drown a mortal with no effort on her part. Most often, those dwelling in freshwater are receptive to mortal contact, while those who dwell in salt water tend to be hostile. Exceptions are known to exist, however. +The various races of serpent people are easily recognizable in their true form, as they generally appear as idealized human specimens, gradually shifting into the body of an immense serpent below the waist. Given their choice of habitat, and the occasional mixing of blood with local humans (and other intelligent races like elves, orcs, fae, etc), most lineages of serpent people exhibit healthy, dark colored skin ranging in tone from olive to dark brown, and they tend towards classical aquiline features. Dark hair, dark eyes, and graceful build are all very common features amongst their kind. +Despite their seemingly unusual appearance, serpent people are very quick and graceful as a whole. Their powerful, snake-like trunks are able to carry them over land at speeds comparable to humans, and given their affinities they tend to be even faster in the water. These powerful muscles make their coils incredibly powerful. They can support themselves in the trees, like serpents, or constrict prey. Many mortal lovers have found that serpent women are quite skilled in this art, with a few unfortunates winding up blissfully a asphyxiating in their lover's coils. There are far worse ways to go. +In terms of material culture, the snake people range from the tribal level to the very advanced. Serpent women in particular are fond of jewelry and silks, as well as tattooing, hennaing, piercing, scarification and other forms of body art, which they use to enhance their natural charms. The serpent races do not hold vanity to be a sin, and it is quite common for the women to leave their breasts exposed or to flirt playfully. Sexual congress is regarded as an interesting diversion, and many can be quite frank about their previous partners. +All manner of art -- including sexuality, naturally -- is highly regarded amongst the serpent races. Most pertinent for our own purposes, however, are the various forms of erotic dancing that they have mastered in order to seduce others. Such dancing often involves complicated movements of the abdomen and tail to better arouse their suitors. Serpent men sometimes participate in these, but more often use music and poetry for the same purposes, charming both the females of their own species and those of other intelligent races. The serpent people also possess an extensive corpus of literature detailing the fine art of pleasing their partners, both male and female. +As mentioned earlier, the serpent races possess a keen intelligence, and many are accomplished in the arts of sorcery and spellcraft. This presents many entirely novel possibilities for sex, as they have been known to use their magical arts in conjunction with natural talents in order to... enhance the act of sexual congress. The author recalls one incident with a serpent woman along the Indus who used her spells to temporarily enlarge both the size and sensitivity of her breasts. Their well-known mastery of illusions and shapeshifting likewise is an asset to the sexually adventurous. +It seems that for every species of serpent, there are corresponding races of serpent people. In India, one finds venomous cobras and kraits counted amongst the learned Brahmin priests of the serpent folk. Some tribes of serpent people in the Sahara desert consist entirely of adders, while in the Pacific Ocean the banded patterns of the sea snake seem to dominate. The bayous of the American South are home to serpent women who proudly display the incandescent black scales of the indigo racer. And in the deepest heart of Africa, various serpent tribes display such diverse species as black mambas, gaboon vipers and pythons. +Most often, one can discern something of a serpent woman's nature by examining what species of serpent she most closely resembles. The author recalls one of his previous lovers, a hot-tempered beauty from the Arizona desert who displayed the black-yellow-and-red bands of a coral snake. She was a slight, petite beauty with small breasts and deep eyes. After traveling in her company for some nights, she finally gave into her lust and allowed the author to penetrate her beneath the night sky. During this incident, she playfully bit the author. Fortunately, she did not inject any venom. +Such behavior actually seems to be quite typical. Those serpent women who have an affinity towards venomous species such as adders, cobras, mambas, rattlesnakes and the various species of viper can indeed choose to inject venom, so adventurers are urged to use caution while copulating with them. An impatient lover who becomes angry or even aroused might inadvertently wind up killing her partner. And venomous snake women do enjoy playfully biting (and scratching) their partners. +Another encounter happened further south, in Brazil, with a very curvy, voluptuous serpent woman whose snake-half seemed to be that of an anaconda. She was the polar opposite of the previous lover, with light caramel colored skin and huge breasts. She was far more aggressive in her sexuality, literally exhausting your beloved author with multiple acts of intercourse each day. Like many of her kind who resemble pythons or boas, she enjoyed coiling her body around her partners, wrapping tightly as she reached orgasm. +The most often encountered race of serpent women in the West are those called lamia. Named for a cursed Libyan queen who angered the gods, all known lamia are female. Unfortunately, they tend to exhibit rather sinister tendencies. Like their great ancestor, lamia (or lamiae as they are sometimes known in plural) display an intense dislike for pregnant mortal women and children. They will, however, gladly seduce men, sometimes killing and eating them, other times siring children of their own. Given their origins, lamia are often found along the Mediterranean in Greece, Egypt, Palestine, Italy, Turkey and elsewhere, and bear the features of that region. +Some stories out of Iberia seem to attribute vampiric abilities to the lamia, claiming that they are able to slowly drain the life from their mortal partners as they drain their seed. The author has tried several times to test such claims, with different lamia partners, but they remain unverified. The last session ended with him being left breathless and tired at in inn in Seville. Clearly more research needs to be conducted in the field. +The naga (or more properly, nagini to use the feminine) of Asia are a far more equitable race. They are believed to have originated in India, but have long since spread out to Ceylon, Tibet, Burma, Malaya, Thailand and other far-flung corners of Asia. Nagini are far more intelligent and cultured than their western kin, with many preferring to reside in their underwater kingdoms. Still, they have often interacted with the mortal civilizations of the East, sharing both their magical and erotic knowledge. Indeed, many rajahs and sultans have claimed descent from a serpent woman. +Even more so than other serpent races, the naga are known for their mastery in the art of shapeshifting. While they can (and do) appear as the familiar half- snake, half-woman, they have also been known to appear as giant snakes or dragons, multi-headed serpents like the hydra, or simply women (and men) of unearthly beauty. If rumors are to be believed, nagini are quite adept at copulating in various forms, regarding it as both pleasurable and utilitarian. Many nagini believe that the form they assume determines their chances of conception, and adjust their forms accordingly. +Given the rather... unique anatomy of the serpent races, some consideration must be given to their reproductive anatomy. Most serpent women do not possess a vagina comparable to that of humans or other mammals. Instead, they tend towards a reptilian cloaca, a simple slit which serves as both genital and waste tract. Located beneath the ventral scales at roughly the same location that one would find a vagina on a human female, a serpent woman's cloaca is just as sensitive, and a human male's anatomy fits quite comfortably. +Furthermore, snake women are able to exert considerably more control over their cloaca than other races can with similar parts of their corresponding anatomy. Used in conjunction with their powerful snake-like coils, they are able to milk every last drop of semen from partners -- human, serpent or other species. The author of this article is able to confirm that having a tight nagini cloaca hugging your manhood is an incredibly wonderful experience, and recommends that all adventurers indulge in the act should the opportunity arise. +Sexual unions between humans and serpent people tend to be pleasurable affairs for both partners. Most serpent people are cold-blooded, which explains their preference for the torrid regions of the earth. Mortal lovers often report their skin being cold to the touch, and find genital contact to be strange but pleasant. Likewise, serpent women often enjoy the warmth that radiates from their lovers body, and many enjoy lovingly coiling beside their partners and drifting to sleep afterwards, the human body providing something that they themselves cannot. +Despite the differences in anatomy, women of the various serpent races are fully capable of reproducing with both humans and males of their own species. As mentioned previous, several prominent dynasties in Asia actually claim descent from naginis who took human lovers. Serpent women tend to have relatively short pregnancies, but display many of the same of the same characteristics as human females, such as sensitive, milk-engorged breasts. The author is proud to inform you that pregnant serpent women become very easily aroused while in the pregnant state. +However, the act of giving birth tends to distinguish the serpent races from humans and indeed most other mammalian races. Some lineages of serpent women, such as those descendant from cobras, pythons and many smaller, non-venomous snakes, lay eggs which must then be hatched. Others, like the authors aforementioned anaconda woman lover, give live birth. In both cases the serpent women tend to have numerous children, like the snakes whom they so closely resemble. +Of course, no such discussion would be complete without giving some words of advice to the newest generation of female adventurers. Much of what this author has said still applies. However, the author would like to remind his female readers that snake men often possess a two-pronged hemipenis like male snakes. This allows them to effectively service two openings at once, but can also come into play during orgies. The potential benefits for female partners should be quite obvious." +777,Sexting Ch. 01,byakkobayliss,How To,2009-10-27,2009-10-27,2022-01-04 08:38:29,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sexting-ch-01,An Introduction: how to send hot sexy texts to your boyfriend.,"['Boyfriend', 'Dirty Talk', 'Long Distance', 'Message', 'Mobile', 'Phone', 'Sexting', 'Tex']",4.16,"**Part 01: An Introduction** +Having sex via text message (also called sexting or textual intercourse) is a new craze that's sweeping the country. It's not as personal as phone sex, but for people like me - not brave enough to say these things out loud - it's perfect. When I decided to get into sexting I search all over the web for inspiration, what should I say? Unfortunately the most common thing to stumble across when typing 'sexting' or 'dirty texts' or even 'texts to send my boyfriend' into google are dirty jokes. And I highly doubt sending him ""Jack & Jill both popped a pill and needed a drink of water, they danced till dawn, fucked like porn, like all good ravers orta"" is something that's going to achieve anything close to what I wanted. Which is to make him feel wanted, and of course, horny. So I decided to write this for anyone else wondering how to start and what to send. +First, let me tell you how I got into this: +I've been in seeing someone for a few months now, however due to schedules and circumstances it's very rare for us to be together alone. Despite this I still desperately wanted him to know that I am thinking of him, and just as - if not more - importantly, that I want him and want to be with him. I knew that the best option was phone sex, the problem is that I'm just not brave enough to put myself out there like that, and I had no idea if he would reciprocate. How embarrassing would that have been? To start talking all hot and heavy and have him say ""Umm, that's nice honey, but I have to go."" Finally I settled on a medium that I could work with. Sexting. It works perfectly for me, I can set the tone, hardcore, softcore, or just a little something to let him know he is in my thoughts, and I can set the rules. I can tell him whether I want him to reply or not. Before I sent my first 'sext' I told him that I was going to send him a message or two that night that he wasn't allowed to reply to. Of course at the time he had no idea what I was talking about and was completely confused and very curious, but he excepted my terms. So I waited for about an hour after he left, enough time for him to get home and wonder when this text was coming, and then I started sexting. +I wish you were still here +(wait 5 minutes) +I'd be kissing you lightly and softly +(wait 2 minutes) +Then I'd start lightly nibbling on your lips +(wait wait 2 minutes) +Then I'd move to licking and kissing your neck +(wait 2 minutes) +Slowly nibbling, kissing and licking your pecks and your hot body +(wait 2 minutes) +I'd move lower and lower +(wait 10 minutes) +I want to suck you and lick you +(wait wait 2 minutes) +I'd move my tongue all over you +(wait 2 minutes) +I want to feel you in my mouth +(wait 5 minutes) +*sigh* But you're not here :( +So all in all I sent ten messages, starting out casual and romantic and slowly progressing to more the erotic. But not dirty. Notice that the only words I used that were even remotely dirty were 'lick' and 'suck'. Which considering the alternatives such as; 'cock', 'pussy', 'blowjob', 'fuck' and so on, it is very mild. There are two reasons for this, it was the first one I'd sent so I had no idea how he'd react, and secondly, often the most erotic things can be anticipation and imagination. +The second thing to note is that I didn't just send this in one message, I drew out the process, it would have been hot, sure, if I had sent it all together in one message, but it would have been over as soon as he had finished reading it, so about three minutes. However, this way it lasted a half hour, which for you romantics out there, meant that he was thinking of me non-stop of half an hour. +Of course another option is to send one to get him hard straight away. This is one that I sent a few days ago first thing in the morning: +I wish I could wake you up by sucking your cock... +Obviously it has a completely different tone than the previous sexts I described. The reason, this was the only one I was planning on sending. It was 6.30am, the same time he sets his alarm, and while I wanted to send him something hot to start the morning with, I knew that neither of us had the time for an extended sexting session. So make sure that you pick your timing. +Now, some simple dos and don'ts. +Do make it all about him. The point of this is to make him feel good, so don't go on about how you want him to go down on you, unless this is something he gets off on. +Don't take it personally if he doesn't reply. He could be busy, out of credit, in a public place or have no idea what to say. Personally I prefer it when he doesn't reply. It mean I have complete control, and I know exactly what he's doing when he's not replying. +Do make it personal. Use words like 'I' and 'you'. If you can reference past sex, so much the better. For example, ""I was thinking of how wet you made me last night. Tonight I'm going to repay you... again, and again, and again."" +Don't apologize for using words you wouldn't normally. For example, I've never said cock to my guy, I'm building up to that, but we both know there's a difference between what is said in a text and what is said in person, just like there's a difference between what you say to each other in public and in the bedroom. If you're worried about what he's going to think of you, ask yourself why you're doing this in the first place. +Do practice. I'm not talking about sending him more texts (though that's always a great option). Perhaps the better word for it is research. Read stories, this site alone is pack with suggestions, or go into an adult chat room and talk start chatting. It's safe and anonymous and an easy way to ask guys what turns them on without having to put yourself out there. +Don't worry about how he's going to take it. To put it simply, guys love dirty talk. If he respects you less because you tell him how much you want to please him then his respect is precarious to begin with. +Do keep testing new things and see how he responds, who knows, you might just find something that turns him absolutely wild. +Do make sure you choose the right time. 4am is usually a bad time to send a sext, unless you know for a fact that he's awake and alert, but normally if you're sending something at that time, the reason is simply because you can't sleep. I promise he won't enjoy it as much if you wake him up 2 hours early just to tell him you're thinking of him. But that doesn't mean you have to keep sending a sext at the same time every day. I love mixing things up, my guy never knows is he's going to get a text from me, which makes it all the more fun. +Don't send a sext when he's having a hard time in life, it obvious to most but I have heard of partners sending their lovers a series of incredibly hardcore texts the day after their mother had died or they'd lost their job. Sad but true. +Do be enthusiastic. It's much better to write ""I want to suck you until you cum"" than ""If you want me to I'll give you a blowjob"". Let him know that you want him. +Don't use text shortcuts. Sorry folks, but when it comes to sexts, it's not gr8, it's great. It's not 'u', it's 'you', it's not 2nite, it's tonight. This is something you shouldn't be sending on the run, or rushing like an afterthought. Put time and effort into it. +Do be descriptive. Go into detail, tell him exactly what you want to do him. Take your time, you don't need to rush this. +*** + _Author's note: Thanks for reading.

I cried. +""That hurts, does it?"" replied my chiropractor, a concerned look on his face. +""Sure does, doc, I...ouch!"" +""There too? Gosh, you've really wrenched your back, son. How'd you do it?"" +""Well, I...you see...my wife wanted to...that is _we_ wanted to try..."" +""You didn't try fucking in the 'wheelbarrow' position did you?"" He said, cocking one eye. He was, of course, referring quite inelegantly to the position where the lady is supporting herself on her hands while I hold her legs in my hands like the poles of a wheelbarrow and, with great strength and finesse, pound her like day-old veal. +""As a matter of fact..."" I said weakly, wincing in pain as I tried to get up from the exam table. +""Take it slow there, buddy,"" he said knowingly. ""I know how much it hurts. I hate that position – but my bank-book loves it."" +And they say watching too many adult movies can't be bad for your health. +If there's one question I've been asked over and over, it's ""Can you tell me some good sexual positions?"" +Understandable, really. Lovers do get bored with fucking in the same position time and time again, and if there's one aspect of sex that's not overly intuitive, it's positioning yourself or your lover during sex - predominantly intercourse. And its true, adult movies are not the best teachers. First of all, in order to get the best camera angles, the partner's faces usually are not close to each other. Second, and more important, it's not real life, it's a movie. Not that many people I know are fucking their girl leaning on a staircase, both standing, her leg over his shoulder. It looks fantastic, I admit, and is especially easy with his 10-inch cock enabling him to fuck her from another zip code. In real life, though, she'd need a half-hour of yoga stretching and he'd need a back suitable for moving furniture. There _are_ some good standing positions, and we'll get to them later. +Another challenge of positioning is flow. You're in the middle of making love and you decide to switch positions to liven things up – just as she was about to cum. Can you say, ""knee to the groin?"" If your object was to give her an orgasm (and that's always _my_ object – I'm very results oriented), you've just killed the flow – the lovemaking flow – and have to start back at square one. This does _not_ make you popular. +There are a great many benefits to having a sizable repertoire of different positions, though. First, as I touched on, is the variety factor – not doing the same thing in the same way every time. This helps to keep sex fresh and unpredictable. It's like driving home a different way every time you leave work. You're still going to the same home, but varying the path enables to you see new scenery each day. Then, even your conventional path is nice to return to now and then. +Second, making love in different positions hits her orgasmic centers from different angles. Look, I'm a man and I write from the perspective of a man. When I make love to a woman, I want her to know she's been made love to. I want her to _remember_ me. When she's had a clitoral orgasm because her clit was riding my cock and hitting my pubic bone, and then she has a shuttering, entire body G-spot orgasm because she was on top and I was stuffing her as full as a ten pounds of meat in a five-pound container, then I'm a happy guy. She doesn't mind, either. +Third, and again this is from my perspective but it may be the same for her; I just love to see a lovely, naked female body from different angles. When you're on top, fucking like you've just been plugged in and her breasts are shaking, her mouth wide open with wordless passion...God, that's hot. When you're lying side by side, and you're not sliding in and out as much as you are up and down, your eyes meeting hers and perhaps your lips touching; it's very sensuous and intimate. And doggie style – my favorite – your cock feels like it's sliding down a mile-long tunnel, and you can hold her hips or her shoulders. I just love – absolutely adore – the view of her ass and back, her head hanging down. And if she turns around and looks in my eyes with that smoky, ""you like how that feels?"" look – I'm just gone. I can cum in her or shoot all over her back and ass. It doesn't get any better. +So there you have it; it's how it looks, how it feels, and how it presents variety. Now let's get to some specifics. +I must say that it is jut not possible to describe every position in one article. There are far too many variations, and many I'm sure I've never heard of and would like to try and my phone number is...just kidding. It is beyond the scope of one person to try and tackle them all. I'd like to go over the most popular and favorite positions, though. And of course I _would_ like to hear yours. +One more thing; positions are sometimes dictated by body types. If he's 6'5"" and she's 5'2"", it's kind of hard for her to put her legs over his shoulders unless she's double jointed or a yoga instructor. If both lovers are...how can I say...a little large, then missionary can be difficult but doggie style can work just fine. Otherwise, take your pick or try them all. Here we go: + **** + **Missionary Position: A great place to start** +Description: Well, uh, man on top! +Yeah, this is the one your parents and their parents used, but – it works well! You're on top of her, propped up on your elbows, sliding in and out and hey...it's all good. You can look into her eyes, talk to her, kiss her, hold her face – you name it. She can have her legs spread, or hooked over your calves, or even wrapped around you. This is perhaps the most intimate of positions and there are quite a few variations. +You can, for example, have your hands on her ass and pull her in with each stroke, or she can pull you in for maximum penetration. Here's a nice twist: Lie on top of her so that your bodies are in full contact from top to bottom. This has been called the _coital alignment technique_ , and it works best when the guy is not 350 pounds, by the way. You slide a few inches higher up, or forward, from the typical missionary position. The base of your penis should naturally rub against her clitoris. Then when you're sliding up and down in a sort of rocking motion, rather than in and out, whew...it's a collect call to orgasm central for both of you. And it can take a while, which is always a good thing -- a really good thing. +Experiment with different leg positions if you like; together, apart, wrapped around -- there's no wrong way. But keep this in mind (guys); when your legs are close together, you seem to cum quicker. I'm not sure why this is the case physiologically, but when you keep your legs together and tense up – whether you're on the top of bottom, you're likely to cum quicker. My point is this: if you want to last -- and who doesn't -- keep your legs further apart. My personal preference to illustrate this point is to position myself on my knees, my legs spread (picture a baseball catcher – but just for a moment!), and her legs wrapped around me. I can hold her legs apart by her ankles (very hot, believe me), or wrap them around me. I may hold her hips, hold her hands, play with her breasts – whatever. The point is, I can last for quite a while with my legs apart, and pound away to my – and her – hearts delight. + **** + **Woman On Top: What a view!** +There are so many good things about a woman being on top of you that I can't begin to describe it. In fact...name one bad thing! First of all, my God, what a view. Her face, her neck, her breasts, her stomach, her pussy – all in full view and shakin' on top of you, my friend. Feels great, looks great – man, I wish I was there to share this moment with you! +When a women is on top, your hands are free to roam. Rub her sides, take your face tenderly in your hands, cup her breasts in your hands, hold her hips – just do what comes naturally (In my opinion, they ALL come naturally!) +At the same time, your cock is buried to the hilt inside of her, and she's moving her body at her own pace, her own rhythm. There are few, if any, positions where a woman can cum stronger and fuller than when she's on top of you – believe me. Your cock is probably hitting her G-spot, bumping her cervix and perhaps, if she is high up enough on you, smashing her clit (if not, she can rub her own clit to orgasm – easily – or position herself so that the base of your cock hits her clit better). +On top of you, your lover can use more of a rocking motion than an up-and-down pump, which keeps your cock inside firmly. At the same time, she can position herself to bring your cock in contact with her G-spot for the kind of full- body orgasm that will have her shaking from head to toe, calling you all sorts of great names or cursing like a sailor – and hopefully all three. She'll definitely want a return engagement. +As for you, my passive friend, you can let her steal the show, or use your arm strength to move her up and down like a piston on your cock. Or, speed up the pace by rocking her back and forth faster and faster, working her into a quivering frenzy. This is almost always a ""sure to cum"" position for her, so use and enjoy it. **** + **Doggie Style: Bring out the animal in you** +OK, I admit it. Everyone has their favorite position and this one's mine. It's so hot, it's so raw, it's so...the essence of sex. She's on her hands and knees and you're pounding her like a machine, going impossibly deep, your balls slapping against her ass while she screams, ""God...yeah...fuck me like a ten-dollar whore!"" Alright, I made up that last part...or was I just remembering the last time I was with a ten dollar whore? No matter. I have heard some women say that they feel this position is somewhat subservient. Yeah...and what's your point? No really, it's not a matter or respect. No one loves and respects women more than me. So much so, that I revel in the idea of making them feel wonderful, and this position hits the target. Truth is, most women absolutely love it. +Some men consider themselves leg men, others tit men and so forth. I personally like a great smile and a girl who loves to laugh...especially when she has great legs and tits. But I digress. Have you ever seen the dresses of movie stars from the back, how many are low cut to the point where they begin just a hair above the crack of their ass? That's because there is, and this is my honest feeling, nothing sexier than a nice back. I love a little definition in her upper back and shoulders. How her sides taper in to her ass. The lovely line down the center of her back. God, I love the way that looks. Now imagine it as you move your hips back and forth, filling her to the brim with hard cock. It's the bomb. Not to mention the fact that you get a great view of her ass and legs. +For women, this position has its benefits as well. First of all, as I said, they too love the semi-nasty ""fuck my brains out"" connotation of this position. There's something very primal about it. But there's a lot more to it. A man can easily go balls-deep in this position, shoving his entire five inches (making myself feel like a porn-star here) into her. Since the much talked about but hard to find G-spot is right behind the front wall of the vagina, fucking her in the doggie-style position has the right angle to seek and destroy, meaning another one of those shattering orgasms. Not bad, huh? +Keep this in mind, too. You can stay relatively straight and hold her hips, or lean forward and hold her shoulders, which I personally like because you can really go deep this way. Or, use your hands to caress her breasts, rub her clit, or any other of a variety of other ways to make it even hotter. You haven't lived until she's so hot that she takes your fingers in your mouth and sucks on them while you...well, you get the picture. +Lastly, doggie-style is a natural for anal sex, for those of you who like that sort of thing, God bless you. A little lube, the right music, a glass of wine...don't get me started. Just do it. +By the way, nothing says that doggie style is reserved for the bed, floor or couch. Standing doggie is great, too. Bend her over the sink while she's putting on her makeup and you may just make her day – and yours as well. Over the back of a couch is good, too, because she can sort of sink in a bit – comfortably – while you deliver the mail (you think it's easy to come up with new ways to say it?) +I'm sure you've heard the expression, ""There's a fine line between pleasure and pain."" I'm not getting into a whole discussion of S&M or the final points of anal sex here. What I'm saying is that often, that extra little bit of stimulation, such as squeezing her nipple or her ass at just the right moment, can have explosive consequences. In doggie style, you can gather her hair in your hand and hold it like a rein, if she likes it, then pull (not too hard!) when she's getting close to the big ""O"" and she may experience that pain/pleasure connection. Understand; I'm not talking about pulling her hair like a 5-year old does. I'm talking about gathering all of the lovely hair you can fit in your hand and pulling – firmly, but not so hard that you're pulling her head and hurting her neck. My motto, as you may have guessed, is that if you don't try it, you'll never know! **** + **Cowgirl: The ride of your life** +Image yourself sitting on a couch, your legs naturally hanging off. A buxom female climbs on top of you, inserting your cock deep (and there's no other choice) inside of her. Now you're holding her hips while your cock does a dance inside her hot, wet pussy which is sliding all over your...am I dreaming? Maybe. But this is known as the cowgirl position, except that instead of riding a horse, she's riding your pole. If she were to turn around, giving you an exquisite view of her back, and allowing your hands to squeeze her nipples, cup her breasts, rub her clit –whatever those playful hands want to do – this is called reverse cowgirl. +Either way, the position is wonderful. First of all, you're so deep inside that you may be bumping up against her cervix and sending shivers throughout her. Second, when she's facing you, you can watch her face while she goes through the various stages of ecstasy leading to inevitable orgasm, and how hot is that? Ever see a girl throw her head back, her mouth wide open, while she's hit with a tidal wave of pleasure? Let me tell you... it doesn't suck. Makes you want to cum like a fire hydrant. +Her too, because in this position, your cock is sliding up and down her clit with each thrust. And what does she see? She can look into your eyes, hold your strong (well, they should be) chest and shoulders and watch as you, too, go through the phases of passion that lead to your climax. As the expression goes, it's a win/win scenario. +Her legs can be on the ground or on your legs. In reverse cowgirl, you can both watch a porn while you're making love! Is that fun?...God, yes. There's also reverse anal cowgirl of course, which is only as much fun as having your first drink after a week in the desert. + **** + **Spooning: Your favorite Dessert** +At last, a position named after a utensil. What'll they think of next...forking? Get it? Sorry. +Spooning gets its name for the way two spoons fit together when you stack them. In fact, three spoons fit together just as well, so brings some friends and... +Picture this. It's morning and you're both just barely awake and, of course, horny. There are few things and nice as using that morning hard-on. Puts a smile on your face until lunch, when it's time to go again. You're on your sides and cuddling, your cock gently nudging her ass. You kiss her neck...she stirs. You reach around her back and gently take her tits in your hands, lightly rubbing circles around her nipples. She moans, and her hips begin to buck slightly, grinding her ass into your willing cock. You move your hand to the inside of her warm thighs and tickle her clit with your index finger. Now she's beginning to really press into you, and her moans are unmistakable. She takes your cock in her hand and places it at the entrance to her now moist pussy and with one quick thrust, you're in heaven. Now you move with each other, your cock in her pussy, rubbing her clit as she wakes up to her first orgasm of the day... +Now doesn't that sound like a great way to wake up? It doesn't have to be in the morning only, of course. Spooning is very nice, very intimate, with lots of body contact and your choice of holes, if you like. You can, naturally, make it an aerobics class by holding her hips and slamming into her like a professional wrestler, but I find doggie style more suitable for heavy pounding. +Lastly, spooning is not simply your chest to her back. You can be behind her on your knees, while her legs are together, and penetrate nicely. She can spoon you, by lying down on top of you, her back to your face and her legs up, as you guide your cock in and out of her. One of my personal favorites is when she's on top and I'm entering from behind, and she turns her upper body to face me as we fuck deeply. A combination of doggie and spooning is when she's lying on her back, legs together; you're on top of her, your legs on the outside of hers. Since her legs are together, her pussy so tight, it feels like...well, it feels good. + **** + **Side-by-Side: The angle of the dangle** +Side-by-side encompasses a variety of positions including facing each other, perpendicular to each other, scissors, etc., so let me explain them each. In its most basic form, you're facing each other, and she places her top leg over yours, giving you access to her pussy. Again, this is intimate, slow moving, eye contact love making. Very good for those in the first six months of a relationship. (Do I sound jaded? No...) +Next, she's lying on her side, you're on your knees again. I swear, you've been on your knees so much, you might as well learn to lay carpet, not just your lover. Anyway, you're holding her leg in the air and straddling her other leg. This can be during the next six months, because you can do some serious fucking in this position. If she's flexible enough – love that yoga – you can bend her leg over to your face and kiss her shapely calves while you're plunging in and out of her...I think I need some water...Or rest her leg on your shoulder. +Here's a winner. She's lying on her back, and you're lying on your side, perpendicular to and facing her. It looks like an ""X."" Now, your legs are straddling her left leg, and her right leg is either resting on top of you or you can be holding it up by her thigh. You'll have a lot of fun in this position. You can look at each other, laugh, talk, curse, yell – whatever. It's also a great position if she wants to use a vibrator on her clit while you're sliding in and out. This is usually called the scissors position. + **** + **Stand and Deliver** +Standing and fucking is just plain cool. Whether you're in an elevator, against the wall, next to a couch, the bed, in a dressing room – anywhere. Standing intercourse says, ""I can't wait, fuck me here and now."" One of the best standing fucks you'll ever see is between Tony Tedeschi and Melissa Hill in the adult film ""Bad Wives."" She's leaning against the wall, her back arched and her gorgeous – and I do mean world-class - ass sticking high in the air as he just fills her full of cock and pounds away. An excellent example of just how hot a standing fuck can be. +If you're a leg man, like me, you can look down and see her calves and feet. If she likes, she can lean against the bed or couch for stability. How great does it feel to be standing in back of your lover, hands on her hips or wrapped around her back to caress her breasts while you take her breath away with steady thrusts? Too good to be true, that's how. +If she is much smaller than you, she can be on her hands and knees on the bed while you make love. If she's nearly as tall as you or taller, her ass may be too high up for comfort, and standing at the edge of the bed works better. I've stood at the end of a couch while my (ex) girlfriend stuck her ass over the edge. As I pounded her into near oblivion, my cock also rubbed the armrest, which although I guess it wasn't great for the couch – was pretty great for me. + **** + **Acrobatic Positions – No end in sight** +As I mentioned in the beginning of the article, there is no shortage of creative ways (and places) to have sex. And I don't believe that one article can cover them all. +If she wants to support herself with her hands on the bed, while you hold her legs in mid air (the aforementioned wheelbarrow), it's great fun, and an aerobic workout as well. +She can also sit on your lap facing you, your legs around her and hers around you, holding onto each other or leaning back while your cock impales her. +She can sit curled in a ""C"" position, lying on her back with her legs bent towards her head, while you stand or squat above her and pushes your cock down into her. Sometimes called a piledriver. +She can lie on the bed with just her shoulders touching, her back arched and her legs wrapped around you, while you're on your knees inside of her. +Again – too many to mention. +\------------------------------------------ +I want to conclude with these ideas. Making love in different positions is a great way to keep things fresh. In fact, there are many different positions for oral sex alone – but that would be an entirely different article. You'll find your favorites, you'll invent your own, though the body can only be comfortably put into so many positions. +But it all revolves around how it feels to _you_. Does it hit her clit, or her G-spot? Do you like the view? Is it sexy enough for you, intimate enough, _raw_ enough? +My friends, sex – good sex – is about desire. If you desire someone enough, the position doesn't matter much at all. But if you fuck enough (what's enough? Hmmm...) you'll soon grow accustomed to the same few positions and, as they say, familiarity breeds contempt. You'll grow stale, bored. +It just makes sense, then, to change up now and then. Or every time if you like! I hope that I've highlighted some new ideas for you. If you have any of your own you'd like to share, email me. Best of luck, and enjoy. Thanks for reading." +779,A Sexy Guide,SteelAndSilk,How To,2011-10-31,2011-10-31,2022-01-04 08:25:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-sexy-guide,An outline on being sexy for your man.,['Sexy'],4.41,"While I was pondering a bit about another how-to, I stumbled onto the idea of one about how women could be sexy (or sexier) toward men, and also, avoid being unsexy. Now, as I've stated in some of my other articles, I have no business telling men how to be sexy toward women. I'll leave that to a woman, seeing as she would know a hell of a lot more than I would. +There are the obvious things, of course, for both sexes. Being in decent shape, having a good attitude toward each other (though some women do go for the douchebags, a concept I'll never understand), etc, are all great things. However, not every guy is going to be able to get all ripped out, and not every woman has time to tone her abs or get supermodel hot. Let me share a secret with you ladies...you don't have to in order to be sexy. But, it is good to take care of yourself, just as you would want your man to. +Now, understand that when I ""speak for men"" we're talking about your run-of- the-mill normal guy. Sure, there are guys who think you dressing in a skin- tight latex full body suit with weird goggles for your eyes and a zipper on the mouth while you spank his ass with a spiked paddle is sexy. I'm not remotely experienced with that, so I'm going to leave that be. Nor am I getting into the men who supposedly love obese women. No experience there either. +So what do you think of when you think sexy, girls? Maybe waiting for your husband to come home, candles lit and music playing, and he finds you on the bed, dressed in some killer lingerie (or nothing), and ready to fuck? Well, yeah, that is sexy, really sexy. However, you probably don't have time to do that every day, and honestly, even if you did, that would get old after a while. +But there are so, so many ways to be sexy that you might not even know. Unfortunately, there are also ways to be unsexy that you might not know, but are doing anyway. Let's start with something sexy though. +Your lingerie is great, don't go tossing it. But save it for special occasions. After all, the less we guys see it the more we appreciate it. Don't take that as a go-ahead to be stingy with it either. Maybe just reserve it for a couple nights a week. In the meantime, a pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt will do just fine. I don't mean big baggy things. I mean a nice pair of lounge pants that might hug your ass a little, and a t-shirt that is snug enough to show off your chest, maybe a bare midriff too. You don't have to go too tight though, it's not necessary to be uncomfortable to be sexy. +Clothing really isn't so much the key to sexiness though. In all honesty, it's attitude. Allow me to tell you that the ""let's fuck and get it over with"" attitude is the very, very least sexy thing to a man, short of not wanting to have sex at all. Having a sexy attitude means you show desire, and you can (and should) do so in two ways (don't take these as order of importance, they are equal). One, you show desire to please your man. Blowjobs, doing his favorite positions, and telling him how much you want to fuck him, are great ways to do this. Two, let him know you desire him because _he_ pleases _you_! That's right, ladies, your men should want to please you. And there are few things sexier than a woman telling her man she wants to fuck him because she knows he's going to blow her mind. I challenge you to get in touch with your animal side and growl, ""I love how you fuck me,"" mid-coitus. I would make sure you already came though, because it's not going to be long until he blows his load. +As I said before, there are ways to be unsexy without meaning to. Complaining about your body is a huge one. If your man compliments you on being hot and/or sexy (which if you have a good man, he should) then take the compliment. Smile, giggle, tell him he is too, whatever, just take the compliment. DO NOT turn around and say, ""I'm fat,"" or any variation of that. In the first place, even if you do have some love handles, he probably doesn't give a damn. Second, with that simple statement, you just told him you couldn't care less what he thinks of you, and it makes him feel stupid. Not remotely sexy. Where women got the idea that pointing out mild flaws, if they even are flaws, is a good thing I'll never know. In most cases, you'd never hear a man tell you he thinks his cock is small if you tell him it's huge. But I'll tell you this, even if you complain to fish for compliments, it's not sexy. As I said, a good man should tell you that you're good looking on a regular basis, just like he should tell you regularly that he loves you. _Believe him_ when he compliments you. If you don't feel sexy, be willing to see yourself through his eyes, and you will. Also, don't complain about breast size or facial flaws or that type of thing. The whole issue is that since he chose you, _he is attracted to you!_ Saying that you are unattractive is either going to make him feel bad, or, in the worst case scenario, convince him you're right. +Being sexy, particularly during sex, can also depend on how your body corresponds with your man's. Hopefully you do have a guy who takes care of himself. Guys, you need to work out, seriously. Yeah, there are women who prefer guys skinner than they are. Again, I don't get it, so I'm not getting into it. Let's just go from the typical perspective. +Suppose you're a shorter, smaller girl. Your man is probably taller and larger than you, so let him know you feel safe with him around. A man feels great when he knows his woman feels secure with him, touching on that inner guardian and warrior all men are born with. During sex, let him pick you up, hold you, and fuck you with your legs wrapped around his waist. He will feel strong and powerful, his masculine ego is stroked, and you will get the fuck of your life. +But now, suppose you're not short and petite. You might work out yourself, and are tall and toned. It might be that, while you're definitely not fat, you weigh more because of your height and build, so your man can't pick you up for long enough periods of time to fuck you properly while holding you. You can still make him feel strong by making him fight for it a bit. I'm not suggesting forcing scenarios, that's up to you. I mean playfully resist, smile to let him know it's in fun, but strain against him. Make him pin you down, or wrestle with him a bit. Conversely, it's also very sexy if _you_ pin _him_ down and ""take what you want,"" so to speak. I don't recommend doing that all the time though, or rather, doing _just_ that all the time. If you do have that in your regular play, and there's nothing wrong with that, just remember to let him turn the tables. It's not about men being superior or any damn thing like that (put the picket signs down), it's about stroking his male ego. You want to be sexy, make him feel sexy, and have a great fuck? Stroke the ego. The sexiest thing to a man is when you make him _feel_ like a man. +Why? Ladies, it's a cruel world. Now, most of you know that too. But men are particularly vulnerable to hurt egos, even though we act like we're not. In all likelihood, your man probably has a stressful job. Getting passed over for promotions, getting paid less that what he knows he's worth, and dickhead bosses and/or co-workers mentally beat him up all during the day. You are his safe haven, and _that_ is why it's so sexy for you to stroke his ego. Honestly, if you make him feel like a man, fuck everything else, because all the assholes in the world don't mean anything as long as he has your respect. +Yikes, went off on a tangent there! It's true though, so keep it in mind. Moving on though... +If you both work out, another great way to be sexy is to work out together. Wear either some workout pants or short shorts and a sports bra or t-shirt, depending on if you work out at home or in a gym. I recommend working out together at home, if you can. Your man LOVES to see you work out and sweat! Your body glistens, then shines, your skin is slick, your pheromones are pumping out as you sweat, your chest heaves and you're groaning...excuse me a moment (sticks head in a bucket of ice water). Ahh...that's better. But seriously, do you get it? Does all that sound familiar? It should, because _working out duplicates the effects of sex on your body_ (at least if you're doing it right...fucking, I mean). That's why men love to watch women work out! It's sexy as hell! Now, when you're done (if you can make it that far) take a shower together, and either wash each other up and get into bed or just fuck in the shower. But, if you want to go for a real turn on, drop the weights or whatever you're using and fuck him right there. Now, yes, you're sweaty and hot and in your opinion, that might be gross. If you can't get over that, well, don't force it, because you won't enjoy it. But I would suggest trying to get over it, because you'll be in for a great ride. You might not want to go down on him, or have him go down on you, but other than that, go with it. Your bodies will slide on each other, and you'll both be pulsing with heat, your blood pumping with exertion and arousal from watching each other. Sure, you smell strongly, but that doesn't mean bad. Sweat carries a lot of pheromones. It's not as though you're just sitting in your sweat for hours and then trying to have sex when it turns to B.O. No, you're getting at each other when your bodies are emitting those powerful scents that arouse and excite. Also, having just been physically active and aroused means you can just launch right into the hot fucking, you don't have to turn each other on. As an aside, there's also the mental aspect that you both know the other person is taking care of themselves and wants to look good for you, so it's sexy in the mind as well as the body. +Another aspect of sexy is body hair or the lack thereof. This is hugely opinion driven. Now, most guys dread the thought of shaving their balls, chest, armpits, etc, largely out of some misguided and inaccurate thought that it's ""gay"". Whatever. It's the 21st century folks, men shaving their body hair isn't gay or straight anymore. But I digress. Personally, I do my balls and pits because I think thick body hair is gross and it traps smells, which isn't good, and I personally feel sexier when I don't have that. Ladies, many men nowadays think a woman who has a totally hairless body is sexy, I happen to be one. That doesn't mean that's the case for every guy. This is an area I really think a lot of couples should discuss and might be embarrassed to do so. Flush that, and just talk about it. Men like everything from a full bush to a landing strip to totally shaved. It's all good. Some guys even like their women to have armpit hair. It's natural and, in some countries, exotic. Body hair might give the appearance of wild and feral, and that turns some guys on. It's not gross, it's not wrong. I recommend talking about it and doing what he thinks is sexy. BUT, fellas, if she's willing to do whatever you want, make sure you're willing to return the favor. My wife likes me to retain what chest hair I have (not much), so I do. Wives, talk to your husbands and ask him what he wants, then tell him what you want. +All in all, sexy really is a respective thing. But there are a few constants, and above all, the thing that determines sexy is attitude. I'd fuck a girl with a few extra pounds wearing a sweat suit who has a great smile and a ""come fuck me"" attitude over a supermodel in a g-string and push up bra who bitches about her appearance and acts like sex is a pain in the ass. Communication is paramount when it comes to sexy, after all, how can you both know what the other thinks is sexy if you don't ask? So open it up for discussion, be open minded, maybe even get a little weird, and stay sexy!" +780,Shakespeare Sucks,Badlands1,How To,2020-10-13,2020-10-13,2022-01-04 08:38:31,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/shakespeare-sucks-1,A heapin' slice o' reality pie.,"['Hugh Mungus', 'Humor', 'Satire', 'Swinger', 'Swingers', 'Swinging']",1.76,"The works of Shakespeare, Frank Bacon, or whomever wrote those nightmares we were forced to read in high school, are as entertaining as a PBS Special on fungus.

There are, however, a few old-time barbers and a handful of folks like me who learned from them who still know how to use a straight razor, so I'd encourage anyone who desires a super-close shave to seek one of these experts out to learn the technique. It has to do with knowing just how to pull the skin back with one hand while using the other to guide the razor at the right angle, pressure, and speed across the area to be shaved, plus getting a quality razor, knowing exactly how to sharpen it, and using good shaving cream and after-shave products. +BUT, that takes considerable time and effort. +So, the second-best way to shave is with a so-called safety razor--they do have the potential to cut you--and knowing how to use it. I like the Schick Quattro and prefer the Nivea for Men Sensitive Gel shaving cream and Sensitive Balm after-shave lotion. I use these same products with the straight razor, too. Disregard the ""men"" in the name, as the gender-specificity is merely marketing, and they work just as well for women. +It's key to get comfortable in a well-lighted area and allow yourself plenty of time. A rush job is much more likely to lead to nicks and cuts and unfavorable results. You'll usually get better results if someone other than the shavee does the shaving, and it can serve as a great form of foreplay, too. +The first step, if the pubic hairs are longer than about a quarter inch, is to remove them with scissors. A good pair of barber's sheers is best for this. They are not cheap, but they'll last a lifetime if reasonably cared for. A good second choice are bandage sheers--the kind EMTs use to cut your clothes off in an emergency. They have the advantage of blunt blade tips, so you don't have to worry about watching the blade ends to keep from inadvertantly snipping yourself as your eyes focus on the other part of the blade cutting pubic hair. Also, dedicate the sheers, whatever kind they are, for hair- cutting purposes only, and don't use them for anything else like paper or fabric. Cut as much of the pubes with the scissors as you can, and brush out the severed hairs. +The next step is to soften the hairs. The easiest way to do this is to take a hot bath or shower first. Or, make a hot a compress with a hand towel soaked in water as hot as you can tolerate, wring it out, and hold in place for a couple of minutes. +So that the hairs remain warm and thus soft and more easily shaved, immediately apply the shaving cream. It's often cold--undoing the work of your hot shower, bath, or compress--so it's a good idea to warm it by simply placing the can in a basin of hot water. Schick used to make a hot lather machine with replaceable canisters of cream. I got one for my granddad, shaved my face with the hot cream a number of times myself, and thought it rendered an incredibly close shave. That was over 30 years ago, and I haven't seen that product anywhere in many years. If you really want to go all out, I'm sure there are still professional model hot lather machines available through barber supply firms, and I'd bet they aren't cheap. +Apply the shaving cream SPARINGLY; it's purpose it to soften the hairs and lubricate the skin, and too much will obscure the view of what you're trying to shave. Using a shaving brush facilitates working the cream in and feels great when swirled on clit, labia, scrotum, that sensitive spot on the underside of the penis near the head, and the anus. Yes, I know, not all of these areas have hair, but hey, this is about shaving and having fun at the same time! +Wherever possible, shave WITH THE GRAIN--in the same direction in which the hairs are pointing out of the skin. With practice, you can learn to pull the skin back so that the pubes are nearly perpendicular to the skin surface for the closest shave. Don't shave against the grain, as this is much more likely to lead to ingrown hairs as they grow back. By the way, the longer you continue to shave a particular area, be it face, legs, pubes, or wherever, gradually the more perpendicular the hair will grow out from the skin surface, making it ultimately easier to shave. +Do not shave back over an area you've already shaved. This is awfully tempting when you spot a few hair stubs remaining, but doing so often leads to skin irritation. Simply leave them and get them the next time you shave, which, depending on the growth rate of your pubic hair could range from a couple days to over a week. Just like a face or legs, don't shave again until there's something there to shave. Incidentally, repeated shaving of the same area ""trains"" the skin to tolerate it, so that over time, less and less irritation is likely to result. +Rinse the area thorougly but gently with warm water, and immediately apply the after-shave lotion to lock in moisture. I pointed out my favorite, above, but whatever you use, make sure it is alcohol-free, as alcohol may feel refreshing and cool but is a skin irritant for many. +Even if you've followed my directions scrupulously, don't be surprised if you get some skin irritation--a prickly-heat-looking rash of raised red bumps or ingrown hairs--if you are a new or newly-resuming crotch-shaver. To deal with an ingrown hair, NEVER pluck it, but rather take a needle and carefully pull it intact to the surface and then just leave it alone until you shave it off the next time you shave. +I know it's counter-intuitive to continue doing something that has caused a problem, but, reiterating what I stated above, with repeated shaving, less and less irritation results. There are, however, a small minority of people that will always suffer irritation from shaving their pubes. For those folks, simply trim your pubes closely with scissors and be satisfied with that. +Anyway, let me address a frequent problem--shaving where the skin is folded and-or wrinkled: No matter what the particular area--labia, clitoris hood, scrotum, anus--you want the area to be shaved to be as smooth and wrinkle-free as possible. It's best to develop skill at this by shaving someone else before you do yourself. +Let's take the case of a person shaving a woman. Facing her while she sits on the edge of a stool or chair with legs spread, you should use the fingers and/or thumb of your non-shaving hand to stretch her pussy lip flat toward the center of her vagina. At the same time, she should be stretching out her leg on the same side in as wide a spread-eagle as she can while you apply a very small amount of cream to the area and shave in one continuous motion and applying moderate downward pressure on the razor until all of the pubic hair is removed on and between her pussy lip and as far as necessary across the divot of her upper thigh. +To remove the wrinkles, simultaneously pull her pussy lip in one direction with one hand as you shave in the opposite direction with the other hand. Then do the other labia using the same technique. +In may sound risky, but the razor itself will smooth out any remaining wrinkles as you guide it over the area to be shaved. Use about the same amount of pressure as you would shaving your own chin or knee, and, remember, shave the area just once. +In the case of a man, shaving the scrotum, especially the particularly wrinkly part at the base of the penis, can be accomplished in a similar fashion. +If there are a few small cuts, that means you are normal, so don't freak out. With practice and patience, you'll learn how to shave your pubic hair really close without a single nick. +There is a reason I did not describe how to use a straight razor to shave your pubes here, even though it's the best way. It's just too dangerous. You must have a highly experienced person SHOW you how to use it numerous times and be present to give you corrective feedback. I cannot do that in a How-To essay. So, if you defied my advice and tried to figure out how to use a straight razor on your own, you are about now probably bleeding profusely, and maybe even looking at portions of your genitalia on the bathroom tile. Call 9-1-1 and say your prayers. Be sure to bring severed pieces of your anatomy in a cup of cool water to the hospital. They may be able to re-attach them. +I hope this helps those like me who love the visibility, smoothness, and unimpeded access of a hairless crotch.

Maybe your partner is pestering you to shave them but you're too scared to try it, let alone have someone else do it for you! +Although there are people who prefer their man hairy there are millions out there who love to see a man make an effort to shave himself especially if he wants his partner smooth all the time! +Well, fear not, as I've been doing mine for a long time and I'm quite an expert at it! I thought it was high time to sit down and share all I know about the art of shaving yourself without the fear of badly cutting yourself! +1\. What To Use +I usually use a Gillette Mach 3 (even women use them on their pussies!) and a decent foam or gel. The Gillette range is quite good, but you can use whatever you normally use on your face. Some good moisturizers for men or even Johnson's Baby Lotion for aftercare will help your balls feel silky smooth and help calm down any shaving rashes! +2\. Getting Prepared +OK so you've finally decided you're going to take the plunge! You want to go from wire wool balls to smooth baby skin meat monster! +Just like when shaving your face, start by heating a face cloth or small towel soaked with water (you can do this in a microwave for say 30 seconds) and drape around the area you want to shave and leave for a couple of minutes to heat and open up those follicles! While you are waiting get the sink filled up with hot water and drop your razor with a NEW blade into the water to get nicely heated up. +Next cover the area you want to shave (I usually go from belly button downwards!) with your choice of shaving foam/gel. If you don't have any handy, regular soap works just as well but doesn't cover as thickly as foam or gel. +3\. Cock +The first rule is, DO NOT RUSH! Take your time: there's no need to thrash about like Zorro, just go nice and easy! +If you have a full head of hair down there try to trim back as much as you can with a pair of scissors as this will make the actual shaving much easier! There are two techniques that I find helps, one for the cock and the other for the balls. If you like to be smooth from belly button downwards then start there and work down to the base of your cock. Find in what direction you need to shave, i.e. up, down, across to the left or to the right, as people vary in which way their hair grows! Always go ""against the grain"" as this will get you smooth much faster. You'll find you'll need to unclog the razor after every 2-3 strokes as the long hairs get trapped in it: just pick them off in the sink with your fingers (don't worry about the hairs clogging; we'll deal with this later!) +When your midriff area is smooth and now you can start on your cock if you have hairs growing on it. Obviously playing with your package like this can make you hard, which is a good thing for shaving the balls, as you will see later, but for your cock try to stay soft. Grip the end of your foreskin with the tip of your thumb and forefinger and pull it taut so that the hairs will be more exposed and easier to shave. Again you'll need to find what direction is against the grain. Unlike shaving your face you will find you'll have to keep adding more foam/gel as you will have to go over the same area a few times. Even when you think your cock is smooth, add foam/gel one more time and slide your fingers up and down your shaft, and you'll probably find the odd one you have missed. As pubes are thicker then head hair you'll easily feel it. Keep repeating until you are satisfied your cock is smooth. +4\. Balls +Remember I said being hard helps for shaving the balls? The reason for this is that when your cock gets hard your balls tighten up more, and this makes it easier to shave them rather than trying to shave a crinkly sac! So go ahead, get your now smooth cock nice and hard! +Again get your balls all nicely lathered up and prepare to do a bit of bending forwards! Hold your cock upwards and towards you as you do one side of your balls, it can also help if you can cup whichever ball you're not shaving in the same hand as your cock and squeeze the skin taut to the one you are shaving. Again find the direction against the grain and proceed to cover the area with foam; as with your cock you'll need to go over the same area more than once. +You will notice where the base of your cock meets your balls, it will feel hairy, so just pull your cock to one side to get at this rather awkward area and you should be OK! +If you're thinking ""but what about the hair at the back of my balls near my ass?"" this is where you will have to keep looking right between your legs! I always find strokes TOWARDS your ass several times will shave this area quite nicely; all you need is some patience and perseverance! Again, keep lathering the balls up and feeling them until you can feel there are no hairs left sticking out. +All right, you're all nice and smooth and it feels good huh? Go and have a look in the mirror and admire yourself! No longer is your manhood hidden in a forest of hair! Now just wait till your partner gets a view of it! +The hairs in the sink? Just pull the plug and let them collect on the drain guard, then pick them up in one big hairball, wrap in toilet paper and flush them! +5\. Aftercare +Now you have a lovely smooth cock & balls, what's next? Try a bit of talc around your package and maybe also a moisturizer or aftershave balm for men. This will help to soothe any shaving rash you may experience, but mostly I find this doesn't happen to me! After a week or so you can feel a bit prickly down there so it's best to shave again; once you get rid of your main thatch it's easier to maintain when it's just stubble! +6\. Do's & Don'ts! +Do use a new blade when you can! +Do take your time and don't rush! +Do keep it lathered with foam/gel when shaving! +Don't use an electric hair clipper: it will nick everywhere! +Don't put aftershave on after shaving! (unless you want to be stuck to the ceiling!) +7\. Disclaimer +Shave at your own risk! I accept no responsibility for any cuts or accidents when following these guidelines." +783,She Helped Me,eatwithhelp,How To,2011-11-28,2011-11-28,2022-01-04 08:38:35,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/she-helped-me,How to eat your own cum.,"['Cum', 'Delicious', 'Eat', 'Licking', 'Own']",4.25,"For as long as I can remember, it has been a fantasy of mine to eat my own cum. As many other men with this fantasy, I have struggled in achieving the final destination, which is my cum covered fingers being sucked clean by my own tongue and mouth. +Philosophically speaking, I see no harm in eating your own semen and I certainly do not think it makes you gay. I have absolutely no desire to be with another man, I just feel that it is insanely hot to think about my own cum in my mouth, and oh so difficult to do. In high school, when I was limber and spry, I attempted autofellatio a few times and was able to taste my own cum through this method. I cannot say it is something I necessarily enjoyed at that time, but I was curious and it was obviously pleasurable. +Time progressed and I tried various other methods of penis to mouth/tongue/throat semen transfers. I made bribes and deals with myself, created games that were fixed to ensure the outcome ended with me eating my own cum, masturbated in public places with a high chance of someone catching me so that I would be forced to eat my cum in order to not be caught. Anyone else know how this feels? Alas, it seemed that every time I convinced myself to eat my own cum, and every time I was sure I would eat it, that this was finally going to be the time I licked my fingers clean, I chickened out. As I have tasted my own cum a few times, I can tell you that I do not dislike the taste...mine barely has a taste. I am not grossed out by the texture at all. I quite like the warm, gooey feeling of it. It is just that every time I begin to orgasm, I completely lose the desire to eat my cum. +Well, having failed so many times in my endeavors, I decided to talk to my girlfriend about this fantasy. Over the years that we have been together, I knew I could trust her with my kinky fantasy. I figured that it was a fantasy of mine and if she had no desire to partake in this with me, then it did not need to progress any further. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, right? +The first time I brought it up to her she was a bit startled. We were living in different states at the time and I brought it up over the phone during phone sex foreplay. We were discussing different fantasies and turn-ons when I casually asked her if she would like me to clean her up when we were done. She was a bit confused and asked what I meant. I told her that it was a fantasy of mine to eat my own cum. +We discussed the details of this for a few minutes and continued our mutual masturbations. +She could tell by my breathing that I was approaching orgasm and softly whispered over the phone that she would enjoy it if I ate my cum for her. The thought of licking my fingers clean for her caused everything in my genitals to ache for sweet relief. As I orgasmed, I held the head of my penis in my left hand and this opened my hole. +I watched as my semen slowly bubbled out and overflowed my swollen head. My index finger and thumb were covered with globs of my semen. When I could speak again, she asked me if I liked the taste or not and I confessed that I had not held up my end of the bargain. She asked if I was afraid of it. I told her that I was not afraid of it; it was just that I had lost the desire to. +She began whining and said that the thought of me cleaning myself up was so beautiful to her that she did not think she could cum unless I ate it all. After some persuading, she convinced me to gather it all on my index finger and thumb and to just do it for her. She instructed me to not just clog my nose, throw it all in, and swallow. She told me that she wanted me to enjoy it, to try to describe the taste for her. I politely obliged. I slowly licked nearly half of my load on the first swipe. I rolled it around my tongue for a few moments, tasted the saltiness of it and not much more. I asked her for permission to swallow it and she allowed me to. +She asked me if I liked it or not. I responded with the fact that it certainly was not the worst tasting stuff in the world. I followed that up with a few minutes of discussion regarding the texture and the feelings I had as it slid across my tongue and down my throat. I finished cleaning my hand and talked to her about other ways we could act upon this fetish. Upon hearing all this, it was her turn to orgasm and writhe in ecstasy. +That was the last time I was able to eat my own cum on my own. We have talked during foreplay about it, I have talked to her about licking my cum off her beautiful breasts, I have made deals with her that if I cum before her I will gladly finish her orgasm by eating my cum from inside her, and I have told her that I would love to make out after a blowjob, trading my cum between her mouth and mine. And every time, without fail, I lose the courage to follow through once I begin to orgasm. We chuckle and shrug it off as if it is no big deal. +Anyone else with this fantasy knows that it is indeed a big deal. Sometimes, it is all we can think about. I find myself obsessing over it mentally during the day. We talked about all this, my frustration, different ways we could enjoy it...my personal favorite is the thought of tying me to the bed and 69'ing, the first one to orgasm gets to eat my cum. +However, all the talking we had done never amounted to anything more than talk. After a year and a half, I had kind of given up hope and quit talking about this fantasy. Then, one evening over a candle light dinner, I brought the subject up again. I told her that once I started to cum, I would chicken out and lose all desire to eat it. I practically begged her over our table to feed it to me. She said she completely understood my feelings and that even though she would love to share this with me, she was not going to force me to do something I could not bring myself to do. +I said to her, it is obviously a desire I have, and I am asking you to do this for me. I continued by saying, I am asking you now, before we get to the bedroom, that whatever happens tonight, I want you to feed me my cum and I beg you to not allow me to chicken out. I made her deal at that moment, that we wouldn't talk about it anymore, she would understand that after I began to cum there was no way I would ask her to feed me my cum, and that she would just do it. +When we finally reached the bedroom, she gently laid me down on the bed and removed my clothing. My pants got on my penis as she pulled them down, haphazardly flinging my erect member to the side. She undressed in the dark, light pouring in through the drapes and dancing off her beautiful body. I could clearly make out her nipples, puffy and swollen, calling out to me. I could see her sweet pussy dampened, dripping at the thought of our dinner conversation. She slid over my cock, which was straining with desire, gently brushing the shaft with her breasts. +I could have easily came at the slightest breeze. She laid down beside, grabbed a cock ring and slowly rolled it down the length of my penis, lingering for just a moment with my aching head in her hand. She kissed me sweetly and asked me to masturbate for her. I gladly obliged, slowly pulling and tugging on my throbbing penis which was begging for sweet release. After nearly a minute, she told me that she would like to know when I was going to come so she could catch it in her hand. +I knew I could not take the agony much longer. Within thirty seconds I was ready to cum. True to her word, she cupped her hand over the head of my penis as I began to come. The tension of dreaming of this moment for so long, the sexual build up throughout the day and the conversation at dinner resulted in what seemed like a massive load of semen. I filled her hand and some slid out, down the side of my penis, resting on my shaved pubic region. Without saying a word, she brought her hand to my mouth. I had my mouth open; awaiting the sweet reward we had talked so much about. +She opened her hand and let my cum slide into my mouth. My cum hit my tongue, tasting sweet and salty. It flowed over my tongue and throughout my mouth, coming to rest in the back, waiting to be swallowed. I savored the moment, trying to memorize it. I wanted to remember the smells, the tastes, the feelings; for surely, this was altogether the kinkiest and hottest thing I had ever done. +She smiled at me, reached down to my quickly shriveling penis, scooped up the cum we had spilled, brought her finger between our mouths and asked if I wanted to lick it with her. We began to lick her finger together, our tongues chasing my cum up and down and back and forth between our mouths. +It was truly an amazing night." +784,Shopping for Sex Toys at Walmart,glynndah,How To,2007-05-06,2007-05-06,2022-01-04 08:38:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/shopping-for-sex-toys-at-walmart,A new and inventive place to shop.,"['Adult Toys', 'Sex Toys']",4.43,"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know you'd never be caught shopping at the Evil Empire, but this is an emergency. The closest adult toy store is hours away and your date isn't. Besides, I think they're still picketing and you've already said you're scared of those church ladies. And, yes, you could have ordered some real playthings from Lit or Amazon or wherever, but you forgot, didn't you? So, it's here or Home Depot. Yes, that was just a joke... Although I can think of some interesting possibilities .... Maybe later. +So, grab a cart and let's go. Not that one. It's got a wockity wheel. Try that one. Much better. +No, they're not doing community service. They're called greeters. They're supposed to make you feel welcome. And to look out for big screen TVs shoved down your pants. Come on. +Now, our first stop's the Health and Beauty department. No, they're not all looking at you. They're shopping, just like you. Well, I'm sure you look weird to them, too. +Here we are. This'll be the only place for actual sex stuff. The rest we'll improvise. Now, let me check that list. A personal massager. Yes, that's a vibe. I don't know why they don't just say Vibrator on the box. They just don't. Look for one you like, or even better, one you think she'll like. Isn't that one a little...um...industrial looking? Let's see what the label says: Intense Pulsing Throbbing Deep Muscle Penetration. I'd be scared to see that thing coming at me, especially the first time I'm sleeping with a guy. Maybe something a little friendlier. How about this one? I think she'll like this one. Just put in in the bottom of the cart. You don't need a bag to cover it up with. No one cares. Besides we'll put some other things on top of it. +Of course, we're not finished. There's a whole list, remember. How are you fixed for condoms? They're on these shelves. What do you mean, you didn't know they had so many different kinds? Where do you buy your condoms? Oh, don't tell me...the men's room at Bill's Bottle Shop, right? There's a whole new world out there, kiddo. +Latex. Lambskin. Lubricated. Flavored. Pick out a couple of boxes and we'll go. I don't know. A couple of different ones. That way she can choose. Oooh. Spirals for her Pleasure. That one's mine. Throw that one in the cart for me. No, the store doesn't have that old lady restrained in that chair. She's getting her blood pressure checked. Why they put it right next to the condoms and the lube, I haven't got a clue. No! No! No! Don't get the ones you dropped. Just leave the box on her lap and get another... +Oh, I am so sorry, ma'am. If you could just stop screaming for a minute. I'm sure that's not good for your blood pressure. No. He's not a pervert, I promise. +You're the store manager, sir? I never have seen anyone jump over one of those check out lines like that. Yes, we'll be happy to step into your office. +No, you weren't under arrest. You're not going to have a police record. The guy was laughing. It's fine. Let's go. We have more things to buy. He said he'd leave the cart by the pharmacy window. Here it is. +Oh, good. The little old lady's gone. Look! Those guys are moving the blood pressure station to over by the vitamins. Hmmm. Makes more sense and a lot less dangerous, too. We're back here because we didn't buy any lube. But you might and it won't hurt anything to have some nearby, just in case. Well, there's Astroglide, Durex, KY warming gel...You put a drop or two on her nipples or her clit and it warms when you blow gently on it. Oh, you like that idea? Fine. Any more? Yeah, a plain one might be a good idea, too. +Yes, I know these are hairbrushes. Right now they are, but tonight they'll be sex toys. If she's a little kinky, you can spank her with one. Really kinky and the handle could be used in all sorts of ways. You're so cute when you blush. And if she's not, brushing her hair is a great form of foreplay. It's okay if it's pink. Girls like pink. +Move down just a little farther and we're at our next stop. Head bands and hair ribbons. Yes, I know, she's not twelve. There are a lot more creative ways to use some ribbons. Trail the ends over her bare skin. Tie her up. And see, the headbands are stretchy. Wrap it a couple of times around her wrists. It would make a blindfold or maybe she'll want you helpless on the bed... Well, I'm sure you two will be able to think of something when the time comes. They're hair decorations. Girls fasten them to strands of their hair. Think about where else they might be feel good to be clamped to. You're thinking of some places right now, aren't you? I can tell. +Candles will be nice. Let's go there next. Because candles are romantic. Candlelight is flattering to a woman's skin and they smell good. Those two are fine. Pick out two holders to put them on. No, you can't just use a couple of beer coasters. Because they could catch something on fire. A candle is romantic. An uncontrolled fire is not. +A quick stop at the sporting goods section. Look around you. Maybe a ping pong paddle. No? They bring back memories of visits to the junior high school principal's office? Ick! That's not the thought you want running through your head tonight. We'll skip the paddles. Anything else around here you like? Okay, we'll just move on. +Still have the same sized bed? Because we're going to buy you some new sheets. They are not perfectly fine. Your mother got them at an outlet store for you when you were ten. They're not cool and retro. They're misprints. They say STAR TERK for heaven's sake. They don't say you're a guy with a sense of humor. They say you're a pathetic loser who just moved from his mom's basement. Get new ones! At least 300 count. They're silkier and much nicer to sleep on. The higher the number, the better. Yes. They're scratchy and they smell funny right now. Be sure you wash them as soon as you get home. +Stop looking at your watch. We've got plenty of time and we're almost done. +Yes, I know you don't have a dog. We're looking at these collars. This one would fit nicely around her neck, or maybe yours, and you could pretend. A little submission game. Naked, a collar with a long ribbon tied from it to... Uh huh. So? Which one? Oh, both of them. Okay. I won't even ask what you're seeing in that head of yours. +The produce section is next. You're not hungry? Your appetite for strawberries may increase when you're eating them one by one from her naked body. Or she's feeding them to you. Hey! One box is plenty. We have some other things to get. What else? Well, whipped cream is a classic. Over in the dairy case. I like the kind in the blue can. Stop by here and pick up a bottle of chocolate syrup. Special Dark's my favorite. Why? It's less sweet, more intense flavor. Sure. You can get both kinds. But, be careful. A little chocolate drizzle goes a long way. And can be very messy. +That reminds me. Clean towels? Because she might want to take a shower after the food play. That's why. Okay. It's back to the Domestics Department. Because all women dream, without much real hope, that you guys can be domesticated one day and they want to be ready. A pair of the biggest ones and a couple of those smaller ones. A Display of body wash. Good. Pick one. Because she likes things that smell ""girly"". You don't have to use it. You can stick with the bar that's been in your shower for ... No, don't tell me how old that nasty little sliver of soap is. +Last stop and then we'll check out. Champagne. Always a good idea. I like these two, but pick whichever you like. Two champagne flutes. No, you're not going to drink this delicious champagne out of your Batman jelly jar mugs. Because you're trying to impress her, not your friends from the He Man Woman Haters Club. Oh, don't drink all of the champagne. Save a little. Hold a tiny sip in your mouth when you kiss here there. The bubbles explode against her. Yeah, she'll like it. Wow! Ask her to do the same for you. Not too much and not too vigorously. It foams like crazy. No, I'm not going to tell you any details. That's private. You'll find out how it feels for yourself tonight. +Get in line. We're at the check out. They're all the same. Oh, pick another aisle. Quick. That's Virgil. He comments on every single thing in your cart. It'll take forever to get through and you're going to be cutting it close. I didn't plan on that little detour through the manager's office. +Here. Unload the cart while I look for....Oh, yes. Here they are. A box of Altoids and a little bag of red hots. What are they for? Besides the obvious answer of eating and freshening your breath, you mean? Remember what I told you about the bubbles in the champagne? Well, imagine a cooling sensation, or her mouth even warmer. Yeah, that's it. Pay for this stuff and you're ready to go. Have a great evening. +Oh, hand me that box of Spiral condoms. They're mine." +785,Show or Tell,gauchecritic,How To,2003-07-12,2003-07-12,2022-01-04 08:38:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/show-or-tell,Illustrations of how to convey meaning in fiction.,"['Angel Body', 'Bare Facts', 'Feet Eleven', 'Film Star', 'Green Top', 'Hair Angel', 'Hair Colour', 'Hair Golden', 'Hot Nipples', 'Longish Hair']",4.43,"_With profuse and grateful thanks to ALEX756, KILLERMUFFIN, PERDITA, JFINN, WILDSWEETONE, WICKED-N-EROTIC, OCTAVIAN, THE EARL, QUASIMODEM, OPENTHIGHS_SARAH, CHAMPAGNE1982 and QUITE COOL._ +If you've ever asked for advice or a critique from a writer, on Lit. or anywhere else, then you will have more than likely been offered the phrase ""Show don't tell"". But Just what do they mean by this? Ask Alex756 and she'll quibble about there being no difference between when a writer tells the reader something and when showing something. It's all telling. +Ok so what do we mean when we say ""Show don't tell"". What I mean by it is, a list of bare facts is dull. If I'm reading a story on Lit. and I come to a paragraph of measurements, Height, weight, bra size and dick length/girth then I'll skip over it and maybe skip the rest of the story too. +On the other hand if I'm given an illustration of these attributes then I'm being treated like a 'reader' rather than a 'looker'. So maybe the phrase should be ""Illustrate don't tell"". +Let's take the sentence: + **""She was five feet six inches with blonde hair and he was six feet two with broad shoulders and big hands.""** +That's what I would call telling, I'd also call it very dull. To illustrate these bare facts a single sentence might go: + **""Standing silently, her dyed hair swaying and tickling the backs of his pianist fingers, his arm draped carelessly across her shoulders, she snuggled into his side and glancing upwards noted the fact that she could see right up his nose.""** +Here I've managed to convey facts in the first sentence by suggesting them in the second. You can also see that some sort of intimacy is apparent between the two and that the girl is rather frivolous. +KILLERMUFFIN offers the following re-working of the facts and easily manages to create a scene of distinct interest, introducing a further character and some considerable pain whilst retaining each pertinent fact. + **""Sarah screeched when he pushed her legs apart and knelt between them. Sweat had turned her blonde hair into strings of dishwater that clung to her face. Men that big had no freaking business shoving a girl's legs apart. Even though the stirrups kept her spread open, his shoulders still touched her thighs. She was comfortably medium-sized, but he made her feel like a dwarf.** + **He smiled at her and then stuck his lubed fingers into her pussy. She gritted her teeth while he prodded around with an expression usually reserved for groping blindly under the sofa for lost keys.** + **""You know what they say about a man's hands,"" Donna said, then leered at him.** + **She was too startled to scream when the contraction crunched his knuckles.""** +When you read stories on Lit. you will find many written in the style of: + **""He was five feet eleven and had muscles like a film star with dark brown eyes and darker brown longish hair. Then he saw her and she was like an angel with a body to match. Her hair was golden and she was exactly the same height as he was. He could tell that she was hot for him because her nipples were poking out beneath her green top.""** +Again we are given a dull list of facts. How can we change this to make it, not more literary but, more interesting? One thing that can be done is avoiding lists. If you feel the need to ""tell"" some things that are factual then spread them throughout the work. Dribble them sparingly and let the reader's imagination soak them up piece-meal. Find another phrase for a bare fact. Another way to attack this problem is change your viewpoint and start again as PERDITA does: + **""I had to tell myself I wasn't in Hollywood, but the young Day-Lewis look- alike meeting me eye-to-eye at the bar during the first intermission of Lohengrin was a real 'looker', as Mom used to say. I caught his liquid doe- eyes skimming over my breasts and hoped he had an inkling as to why my nipples were stiff and jutting out from behind my lime cashmere halter. I could feel my full breasts swell warmly as our eyes met for an instant and hoped he caught that too.** + **He had shoulder-length dark brownish hair, so I hoped he didn't hold too fast with the stereotypes about blondes. I'm a natural via mostly Swedish genes. I may be a ballet dancer but I think on my feet and am almost finished with Wittgenstein's On Certainty.""** +The factual statement about the brown shoulder-length hair is used as a contrast to the reference about the anecdotal dimness of blondes. +Going back to the original viewpoint ALEX756 gives us: + **""He grabbed a shirt out of his bike's saddle bag and pulled it on, trying not to smile as some cute thing at the pay phone paused in her inane conversation to look at his muscles. His brown eyes and brown hair reflected for a moment in the door as he opened it. He didn't see the blonde angel until he was staring straight into her blue eyes. Then he noticed the cherry slurpee running down her green top -- a small bit of slush caught on a nipple.""** +The original ""muscles like a film star"" become attractiveness to ""some cute thing"" +JFINN next concentrating on illustrating the facts: + **""He liked that he could look directly in her eyes. It had happened before, he wasn't tall; barely over average height, but it always gave him a thrill when a woman stood his equal. It was all they had in common, but he liked that too. In fact, he liked everything about her. She was day to his night, sunlight hair and eyes like a summer sky. Even the soft lines of her body were the perfect counterpoint to his hardened muscles.** + **She liked what she saw too. It was in the way she stood, her arousal showing through a shirt the color of freshly cut grass. Her eyes asked permission as her hand lifted, ready to stroke the shadowy curls at his neck. He whispered, ""Yes.""** + **The ""dark brown, longish hair"" is suggested rather than drawn by ""shadowy curls at his neck""** +Take the scene into a clothes shop and you have a much-used mirror. WILDSWEETONE takes the mirror and instead of using it so the characters can describe themselves, employs it to introduce the pair to each other. + **'The T-shirt with its folded short sleeves and trapped cigarette packet fit his body like a glove. Instantly she was aroused, her body humming sensuously, her nipples beneath the green top aroused in exquisite pain. They stared at the shared mirror, a contrast of colours.** + **Gold hair topped an angelic body that swayed under the green suit as she tried it on. Turning in the mirror, he tugged his new jeans, then wiggled his backside further into them. She gasped at his thin plaited tail of hair as it swung against shoulders strengthened by years of manual labour, her long fingers itching to hold and tug it.** + **With eyes meeting, both instinctively ducked as the fault in the cheap shop mirror blinded their visibility. Grinning, they turned toward each other and she watched his own arousal as his brown eyes darkened.'** +WICKED-N-EROTIC Takes every single detail and gives it a twist, finds a simile, a synonym, a description, an illustration or a new concept: + **""His well chiselled body was no doubt the product of many hours spent at the gym. His hair the color of rich chocolate lay in waves around his broad shoulders, and those eyes, eyes like puddles of muddy water that held her in a trance as he approached. She stood across the room wearing an olive tone top that accentuated her voluptuous curves nicely. The sheerness of the top did little to hide her arousal as they stood eye to eye.** + **Her sun-kissed curls had been what caught his attention as she tossed her head back, laughing heartily with a friend. It was at that moment that he knew he had died and gone to heaven. Now standing in front of her he was wondering where she was hiding her wings.""** +All the examples so far (with the exception of PERDITA) kept with the third person, almost everyone used the ""eyes level"" to indicate same height and only half kept the non-factual angel reference. However each and every re-write was personal to that writer. Telling is a very impersonal thing. Showing (or illustrating) lets you know something about the author. +Now follows a contrived method of sticking to facts OCTAVIAN: + **""He was leaning on the wall at the health centre when she walked in. She couldn't help but notice the top of his head was level with the 5ft 11inches mark.** + **Her eyes never left his face as she walked towards him. She didn't see the black pad on the floor and she was oblivious to the flashing red light showing that she weighed 128lbs.""** +He didn't have the strength to finish. +THE EARL takes the facts and hiding them skilfully still conveys each one in an everyday setting and a fashion to which many men can relate closely: + **""Paul completed his length of the pool and swept his dark hair away from his eyes. He lounged back against the side, his arms resting on the edge. He loved coming here; it gave him a perfect opportunity to show off his toned body. He scanned his eyes over the pool, searching for anybody who might deserve his attention.** + **""Mmm,"" he murmured to himself as he caught the eye of a particularly fine specimen. She was staring back at him, obviously entranced by his superlative looks. Paul's eyes dropped to her impressive cleavage, encased in a minimalist green bikini and smiled as he noticed her peanut smuggling credentials. She wanted him.** + **Paul watched as she languidly swam towards him, her flaxen hair washing around her head, his eyes watching her breasts move. She reached the side and lowered her feet to the bottom of the pool so she was standing eye to eye with him. Paul allowed himself a final glance at her erect nipples and waited for her to open the conversation.** + **""Will you stop staring at my tits?"" She spoke loudly, deliberately attracting everyone's attention. ""Jesus, it's bad enough having to do my morning swim in this ice-cold swimming pool without having some sleazy short- arse ogle me constantly.""** +ALEX756 makes the valid point: _""Nothing wrong with telling. Its all story telling.""_ +QUASIMODEM points out: _""Some things can't be shown.""_ + _""How do you show that a girl has red hair?_ + _You COULD employ the following dialogue:_ + _""Hey, Red!""_ + _""It's auburn, damn it! Auburn.""_ + _Both times you have (different characters) ""tell"" her hair colour, but through the dialogue, you have ""shown"" the reader that she is sensitive about her hair being red._ + _Actually, the only way to ""show"" hair colour would be with an illustration.""_ +WILDSWEETONE reminds us that we are using words: + _""so what's wrong with using an illustration?_ + _\- a head of fire_ + _\- a crown of blood""_ +An example now of dialogue showing instead of telling by OPENTHIGHS_SARAH: + **""Hey, check out movie-star guy over at the bar. He's got his eye on you.""** + **""The little one?""** + **She sighed. ""Your standards are questionable. He ain't that little, Sarah. Nice muscles, too.""** + **""He's probably my height. And he needs a haircut."" I yawned and looked away.** + **""You're like, what, five-eleven? You're a freak of nature.""** + **""I'm statuesque. I can't be looking down at a guy unless he's, you know, licking my--""** + **""Yeah, I know. You've told me. Anyway, your little friends say otherwise. You could cut diamonds with those things.""** + **""This is a medical condition, Daria. I've explained it to you before."" I finished my drink and quietly told my nipples to shut up.** + **""Besides,"" Daria pointed out, ""you didn't even mention your blond hair. So you ruined everything, Sarah. Gauche will think it's pathetic. And you're way over the maximum word count. Just because it was almost all dialogue doesn't mean you get to ignore all the rules.""** + **""Fuck off, Daria. You're not even real. You're not even a goddamn story character. This is just an exercise, for God's sake.""** + **She sobbed quietly.** + **""Oh, god, I'm sorry. I said I'm sorry."" I took her in my arms and gave her a hug.** + **She smiled up at me. ""Wanna make out?"" she asked.** + **I shrugged. ""Sure.""** +This could be called ""showing whilst telling"". We are eavesdropping on a conversation which contains the relevant details of the original list but also conveyed to us is a scene involving peoples thoughts about the elements of the list. Surrealism invades as the two reveal that they realise they are written characters and can even comment on their own creation. +Now KILLERMUFFIN introduces us to an otherwise invisible 'character' (who is in essence the author): The Narrator. + _""When the narrator ""tells"" something, e.g., ""she was angry,"" we call this ""telling"" because the narrator--not the character (even in the I POV)--is ""telling"" the reader what she was. She was angry. ""Showing"" is different. The narrator is still speaking (that never changes), but the narrator isn't telling the reader what she was, the narrator is illustrating what she was and reader must draw the conclusion on his or her own._ + _He didn't think it was all that bad, but she turned a curious shade of red before going all Linda Blair from the Exorcist on him. He ducked just in time to miss the VW Bug-sized rock she threw at his head._ + _The narrator is describing the character, what she did, how she looked, perhaps what she sounded like, but the narrator doesn't tell you what she is. They both accomplish the same thing; they both explain to the reader that she was angry. The difference is that telling the reader is passive and showing the reader is interactive._ + _Why the big deal? Why is showing better than telling if they accomplish the same thing? Passivity v. interactivity. The reader isn't just along for the ride, the reader also wants to feel a part of the story. When you tell the story, the reader cannot think for himself because there's nothing to infer, nothing to think about. The writer is supplying all of the information. When you show the story, the reader has to use his imagination. He has to think about what's happening and interact with the story. If you ""tell"" the story, you'll bore your reader because there is no imagination or thinking involved in telling_. +CHAMPAGNE1982 in a note to ALEX756 writes: + **You're right Alex! They [showing and telling] do seem to relate closely to each other -- different sides of the same coin -- In the spirit of it though, do pretend you'd like to play the same game as every one else and show us those shimmering pale tresses as they blew against the dark wool of his gabardine.** + **When she turns to smile we would like you to draw us a word picture that explains how his warm, earthtoned eyes reflected her cool sky coloured ones as she met him, toe to toe, nose to nose and eye to eye.** + **Illustrate, for your avid public, with your skilled use of the language, how his swarthy, Gallic good looks contrasted with her statuesque, Swedish ones. It's certain your readers would like to see the movement of his strength, rippling under his skin, as he swung her into his arms and how she'd shiver deliciously in response, goosebumps raising all over her body and tightening her skin, even under the chenille of her grass coloured sweater.** + **Or, you could tell us -- ""He was five feet eleven and had muscles like a film star with dark brown eyes and darker brown longish hair. Then he saw her and she was like an angel with a body to match. Her hair was golden and she was exactly the same height as he was. He could tell that she was hot for him because her nipples were poking out beneath her green top.""** +Now we come to a moot point. What can we show? What can we tell? Is saying ""almost touching the door frame"" instead of ""He was 6 foot 3. "" showing rather than telling? Ask Alex756 and she will beg to differ with KILLERMUFFIN. If you ask QUITE_COOL you may get this answer: + _""The difference between showing and telling in most cases deals with situations where the words can't create an image. ""She was angry."" Angry is a feeling, not something that can be seen. Here it becomes necessary to show anger. Add detail to the situation, something the reader can see.""_ +For a technical aspect and reasons both for and against QUASIMODEM: + _""OPENTHIGHS_SARAH's humorous example told us all the facts that were to be part of the STORY._ + _Her character Daria demonstrated (showed) that she was self-involved and shallow, in the SUBTEXT._ + _Tell = factual information = STORY_ + _Show = reader's impression = SUBTEXT._ + _One of the reasons that showing is so difficult, is you can never be certain that your impressions are demonstrated clearly enough, nor that your reader is reading closely enough, or even intelligently enough to pick up the details from the subtext._ + _The more your story depends upon that sort of communication - whether bad writing, or bad reading - the more likely your story is going to be misunderstood, or deemed 'pointless.'_ + _When you DO pull it off, and it meets a thoughtful reader, the story is much improved from stories that do not attempt this effect._ +On the point of what you can show and what you can tell OPENTHIGHS_SARAH's view: + _""Describing physical or other objective attributes in a clever way might be preferable simply because it makes a story more interesting. That's a matter of style and taste, not showing vs. telling.""_ +Then goes on to echo QUITECOOL and KILLERMUFFIN: + _""Describing subjective attributes is more complicated. ""Showing"" that a character is funny, clever, intelligent, boring, vain, silly or sexy is very different from telling the reader such a thing. These attributes aren't apparent in real life -- they have to be discovered, through dialogue or actions. Same with a character in a story. The narrator provides the reader's eyes, not her brain or her judgement.""_ +So let us not take just visuals then let's have a look at how to ""show"" intend of ""tell"" emotions and/or states of mind for some, a purer application of showing not telling. Therefore we'll take an emotionally loaded text and try to show instead of tell: + **""He admitted he'd fucked her friend ""for a laugh"" and that got her really mad. She thought he wanted to date her, not her best friend. Now she was worried about her friend because she thought she was in love with him, but now he says he doesn't care. She began to cry and he shrugged and walked away.""** +Containing all the emotions and the situation QUASIMODEM places the scene in school: + **""Hey, don't tear my head off,"" Carson objected. ""Jake bet me ten bucks.

Well, if you're in a relationship that needs the axe currently, there are a variety of ways that you can end it. I am here to show you the easy way out. +Most people are either too afraid or too nice to sever their ties bluntly, and if this is the case with you, fear not. The simplest way to end a relationship is to make yourself undesirable. First let's go over destroying their physical interest in you. +Women, start caking your faces in makeup. Literally. And you know that perfume that you absolutely have to where when a man that catches your fancy is near? Obviously, don't wear it. Dress like a slob, go on eating and drinking binges, and of course, never, EVER shave any air that you may grow. And I do mean any hair. +For guys, it's easy. Men aren't attractive to begin with, so this is the easiest thing to write. Never, ever, under any circumstances, shower or shave. Not until the undesirable female is gone. That's really all that there is for that segment, and all those tips were pretty obvious. However, there are more obscure things, and this section applies to both sexes. +Personality traits are supposedly what's important in our shallow society ruled by fake attractive people, and if following the previously mentioned tips did nothing, then these are sure to work. Most people hold religion very close to them, whether it be Christianity or atheism, so most people in relationships know about their partner's beliefs. A good way to end your relationship is to tear relentlessly at their beliefs. For example, let's say your significant other is a devout Christian. Even if you also are a devout Christian, a good thing to do while you're cuddling together or sharing some other type of tender moment is to whisper ""Satan be praised"" under your breath, just loud enough to be heard. Another thing that gets them is yelling ""Heil Hitler"" during sex. +There are more extreme uses with this method. Example: if you live with your significant other, get a couple of friends over right before he/she is about to get home from work or an errand. Make sure the thermostat is all the way down and that it's freezing in there. Turn out all the lights, have lit candles all over the house, and dress yourself and your friends in long black robes. Form a circle and chant things in any way that sounds odd; a nude person crying in the middle is optional. When they get home, look over at them and continue chanting as though nothing had happened. +Okay, so they say they can tolerate the Anti-Christ image they now have of you. That's okay, though; there are far more methods than just that. One thing a person rarely stands for is cheating. Bearing that in mind, videotape yourself having sex with their parent, sibling, best friend, or all at the same time. Over the entire duration of the tape, scream in ecstasy about how lousy your boyfriend/girlfriend is in bed. Then, carelessly leave the tape lying by the VCR. Title it something provocative, like an insult to your mate or compliment about their relative/friend's ass. +So, they've hung on this long, huh? This calls for desperate measures, and I assure you, they'll work. +While they're away at work or something, pawn away everything they own. When they learn of this, explain to them that you needed your crack. This is the perfect time to caress their face or something and move your hand to any piece of jewelry they're wearing. +Start following them - everywhere. Write down everything they do in a notebook you leave lying around for them to find. If you see anyone talk to them, regardless of their gender, kick their ass. +Develop a relationship with one of their coworkers and make it obvious. Make sure they see you kissing and groping. Yes, this delves back into the cheating section, but seeing it in the flesh is far worse than seeing it on videotape. +Take them to friend's houses for dinner and laugh about how they cry themselves to sleep and wet the bed. +If all this fails, kill someone they hate and frame them for the murder. Testify against them at the trial to make sure it's over. +And now, you are free. You can start bathing again, you can make yourself presentable again and you can stop being an asshole/stalker/murderer. But most importantly, you can date again! I hope this little piece of tripe I've written has helped you end your relationship.

I don't know anything about you. But I can read. I can see what your Literotica bio says about you. I can see your sissy fetishes. Some of you follow me, so I know you like my teasingly humiliating language. +And I can guess your type: straight (so far), married, monogamous, submissive. I know that dudes like you are just a mind full of sissy fantasies but a reality empty of taking any real sissy action. That is, up to this point. +You beat off to Literotica stories and porn snippets pretending you are a sissy. You're married and your wife--if she knew--certainly wouldn't approve. She hasn't ever known this side of you. You don't have sex with her anymore anyway, plus she is now a plus size. (I'd guess several plus sizes.) And you tell her that her short haircut looks nice even though you can't stand it. +It doesn't matter does it? You now live in the pretend world of sissy sex. It's what turns you on. Beating off your little wiener (I know it's small, btw) to sissification erotica is the highlight of your day. You're reading this right now! +You cum and move on. Until the next day. The cycle begins anew. Beat off, cleanse, repeat. Three steps like the old shampoo directions. +But it's time for some action. Real action. And lucky for you, I'm here to help ass siss tyou (typo intended) by making you prove to me--and to yourself --that your sissy side is real. +Here is your--HOW TO get started--Sissification Guide. +STOP READING! +Don't read any further if you don't want to be humiliated by me. +If you're one of those readers who write stupid responses that don't align with the purpose of this HOW TO be sissified story, it's not written for you. Leave now. +STOP READING! +Unless you're ready to 'walk in a sissy's shoes.' +Unless you're ready to be vulnerable and 'let your hair down.' +Okay, who is still with me? +Good. Don't worry. Long hair and sensible pumps aren't part of your start. I just chose those phrases to see if you have the balls to continue. Having a tiny penis doesn't mean your testicles are tiny, too. Uh, oh. Are they? +PANTIES +Let's start with panties. Many of you sissies reading this own them. I know you do. I know you wear them--at least some of the time--too. So, it's time for you to make the easy transition to full time panty wearing. You'll do it right under the nose of your disapproving wife. You'll wear them daily under your boxers at all times. Then you'll always take both garments off together at the same time. Your wife won't ever notice. She isn't looking at your pathetic crotch anymore anyway. Of course, you'll have to do your own laundry from now on to keep your panties a secret. But sissies should be doing their own laundry anyway. And you'll need a private place to stash them. Just use the same place you use to hide your porn magazines in. +See how easy this is so far? +Let's make this a little more challenging. It's time to separate the men from the boys. Or, in your case, the men from the sissies. +To do that, you need to start wearing bras. +HOW TO HIDE YOUR BRA +I know. I know. This is much harder. But not that much. The key is layers and loose fitting clothes. You'll just have to wear more sweatshirts on weekends out in public. Oh, and don't ever take your business suit jacket off at work. And be careful not to sweat too much. The outlines of your bra will become visible. +When you make it through your first full day of bra wearing at work, go to the men's room and snap a picture of your bra under your dress shirt. Prove that you want to be a sissy. You might only make it through a few hours the first few days, but you'll build up confidence that know one is noticing that you wear a bra to work. You can do it. You will do it. Start wearing your bras Monday. Photograph your proof. +BODY HAIR +Let's talk about your unsightly body hair. Gross! You don't like it; neither does your wife. Get rid of it, Sissy. All of it. It's no big deal. The first time you shower after your legs have been shaved, you'll know right at that moment that you've made the right decision. +I know. I know. A full body shave is a substantial transition, but now that I have your heart pounding, let's check off a smaller, more achievable action first. +Let's start by removing all your pubic hair. +HOW TO SHAVE +The first time you remove that gross coarse patch of gnarly pubic hair above your tiny penis, you'll want to use that beard trimmer you own. You'll want to trim all your pubes to a short enough length that you can easily finish the job with a razor. +Buy some shaving cream and some 'single blade razors for sensitive skin.' Trust me on this. You'll only want to shave your pubic patch bald using a single blade razor. +Take a warm shower. Lather up your entire crotch with shaving cream. After carefully gliding over a patch of what stubble is left, hold the razor up to the shower head to clear the debris before gliding the razor over the next patch of skin. Only pass over the entire area two times. Again, trust me on this. +Don't forget your balls. You need to carefully glide the razor over all your groin area and that includes your testicles. Balls look silly hanging down with fine hairs on them when you no longer have a pubic patch. +Photograph your limp bald little penis for sissification proof. +I bet it still looks really small. Some penises shrivel even more after being shaved. They shrink in defeat--acting all embarrassed about being fully exposed. There is no place for a little penis to hide in shame when the cover of gnarly pubic hair has been completely removed. +DICKLETTE +Your penis is really small. It's okay, it's part of a sissy's identification. Some brilliant person coined the name Dicklette for sissies like you. You need to start calling your tiny penis your Dicklette from now on. In front of anyone. Everyone. Even your wife. +You spent all that time when you were younger looking for real scientific data on a man's penis length. But you're not a man, you're a sissy. You knew you were far shorter than 5.5 inches. You even failed the toilet roll test in college. So you learned your Dicklette must be under four inches, even at its hardest. You became shamefully aware of your shortcomings (now that is a funny word) after spending time in the men's locker room. +And your flaccid penis smallness was even more embarrassing. Every girl you ever dated laughed the first time they saw your >2 inch softy. You knew the laugh was coming. You waited for it. It's okay, Sissy. It's okay. +LOCK IT UP +It's time to prove to yourself, prove to me, that you can embrace your puny penis size. And the way all true sissy's reach acceptance is through self chastity. Small penises get locked up. Sissy penises belong in chastity. You don't have to only take my word for it as the explanation is obvious and it'll come in a minute. +There are many excellent websites where you can buy your chastity device online, but if your wife handles the credit card statements, you can just go to the local adult shop. Ask the person behind the counter for male chastity devices or use their original name: cock blockers. +HOW TO WEAR CHASTITY +Multiple layers of panties is the key! Put the first pair on--thongs work nicely--and tuck the front waistband under the lock. (This prevents the clicking sound a lock makes when it taps against the device while you walk.) +Your second panty should be a fullback pair that covers everything. A tight snug pair is best. The two pairs together will hold the lock in place and will tuck your device tightly against your groin. Pull some boxers over your ensemble and your entire chastised and locked little penis isn't even noticeable. You could walk around the house like that! +LOCKED AT WORK +Wear your penis cage to work everyday. I mean it, Sissy! Everyday! +It's the one place you can practice sissification seamlessly. +Photograph your penis in this humiliating sissy device in the men's room at work when you squat to pee. Prove your sissification action plan keeps advancing. +Then take off the device at home so your wife doesn't ever see it. Not that she is looking. But sissies have been caught in chastity unexpectedly when their hard cage bumps into someone or something. So, you need to be careful. +If your wife travels for work, you need to be locked 24/7 until she returns. +KEY CHAIN +At a time when your wife's keys are lying around, add the key to your chastised penis to your wife's key chain. This will help you stay focused on what you are doing with the only other key. Like, you won't lose it. When she asks you what the key is for, tell her it goes to one of the old suitcases in the garage. +Take a picture of your wife's key chain to prove you embrace sissy chastity. +SISSY PENISES BELONG IN CHASTITY +Just in case any of you readers still really need to understand, I promised an explanation. It goes like this: +There are three types of male organs: cocks, dicks and penises. +Cocks are for fucking. +Dicks are for sucking. +Penises are for masturbating. +Cocks are huge; dicks are average. Penises are small; yours is tiny. +Men with large cocks fuck anything they want: pussy, ass, throats, women, men, trans and even sissies. Cocks own the block. They go anywhere they want. They are highly sought after, far and wide. +Men with dicks are a dime a dozen. Their dicks often get sucked because there's nothing intimidating about an average-sized dick. Dicks sometimes get to fuck, but dicks are for sucking. +Penises are useless appendages; they serve no useful sexual function for anyone. Due to their tiny size, penises can't properly fuck with any depth and they are embarrassingly small for a good blow job. (Unless you think of offering your penis as a pacifier.) +Consequently, penises have no sexual use for anything other than the person who humiliatingly owns it and ends up masturbating it all the time. +But should small penises get to be masturbated? Should yours? Should you get a reward of sexual gratification when you offer nothing to earn it? +NO. No you shouldn't. You shouldn't get to stroke that little wiener for your own self gratification anymore, when the whole purpose of that appendage is to be able to FUCK with it. +Small penises belong in chastity. +I know you now understand, Sissy. You knew this instinctively. You know for sure now. This is part of full sissy acceptance. Self chastity. +PLUG YOUR BUTT +You'll need to become more aware of how your sissy body gets eroticized now that you've embraced having your penis locked. Allow me to introduce you to how. +Sissy...meet Mr. Prostate. +Mr. Prostate...this is Sissy. +Mr. Prostate lives just inside your sissy rectal canal and will teach you how to Sissygasm. (Note: We can discuss Sissygasms at another time.) +But +First things first. Go back to that porn shop and buy yourself a nice butt plug. If you're feeling bold due to your recent success, tell the person behind the counter you are a closet sissy in chastity who needs to learn how to eroticize your prostate. +They will have plenty of suggestions. Trust me on this, they've heard this request plenty of times before you came in their store. +Or just pick out a butt plug and bring it home. Wash it several times. Lube it profusely and slowly work it up your ass until your tight little butt hole clenches down at the base to hold it firmly in place. +Take a picture using a mirror for proof. Make sure your bald chastised penis is visible, too. +Just so you know, you won't be able to wear a butt plug all day. It'll fuck with your bathroom habits if you try to. But you can commit an hour here and an hour there each day at work. Keep in mind, you'll need a private compartment in your briefcase to store your butt pleasure. +YOUR BIG DAY +Fall is around the corner. Your big day is just months away. +Halloween. +You need to commit to my last action item on October 31 and then we can analyze your progress. Fully dress as a woman for Halloween to prove you are a closet sissy. Don't do this for me. Do it for yourself. Prove to yourself that you can openly be a sissy for one day. It'll be no big deal and you'll be able to relax--in public--without having to be self-conscious. You'll be plugged and in chastity under your skirt, but your bra and panties can be worn proudly. Everyone will expect you to be wearing them. +And you won't need a photograph for proof. Plenty of your coworkers will take care of that for you. +PEP TALK ENDING +I've laid out some initial action plans for you. Rudimentary HOW TO sissy stuff. Minor really and very achievable. You can do this! I believe in you! You want my approval. I know you do. Prove it to me! +Prove it to yourself. I've given you the tools. It isn't that hard (you're soft). Do you have the balls? Or are they too tiny, too? +PAT ON THE ASS ENDING +Your completed photographical checklist: +*Bra under your dress shirt +*Bald, limp little shaved penis +*Dicklette humiliatingly locked in chastity +*Embedded butt plug +*Wife's key chain +I'm proud of you for showing me your proof. All right under your wife's nose. +There is so much more you can do to fully embrace your sissification. To open yourself up (double entendre intended). This HOW TO guide is just a start.

There is no obligation to go any deeper here. +If you're one of those readers who write stupid responses that don't align with the purpose of this HOW TO be sissified story, it's not written for you. Leave now. +STOP READING! +To get this challenge started, we'll need to clear up some verbiage. I offer a glossary of terms to enhance our ability to get us all on the same page. I acknowledge some sissies will disagree with my terms, but: my column, my rules, my definitions. +GLOSSARY +Orgasm - rapid contractions of the genitalia at the peak of sexual arousal. +Ruined Orgasm - removing all tactile penis stimulation just prior to orgasm. The untouched penis shoots globs of sperm while aimlessly bobbing up and down during contractions. +Note: a ruined orgasm is still an orgasm. +Example: your femdom girlfriend is jerking you off and just as you're about to orgasm she pulls her hand away and you climax anyway. Your little penis bounces around and squirts cum helplessly. +Hands Free Orgasm - Often the same thing as a ruined orgasm but a variation can include a prostate orgasm. It's exactly as it sounds: an orgasm without hands. +Note: a hands free orgasm is still an orgasm. +Example: while you butt fuck your sissy ass with a large dildo you orgasm, yet your tiny little penis wasn't being touched / stimulated. +Sissygasm - synonymous with a prostate orgasm. The sissy has a hands free orgasm from butt sex. It can be from a dildo, from a man or from a trans female. The act of getting a sissy butt so stimulated from the ass fuck, the sissy explodes into orgasm solely from this pleasure and without any penile stimulation. +Note: a sissygasm is still an orgasm. +Example: your sissy ass is getting fucked by your wife's boyfriend and you orgasm even though your hard, little penis wasn't touched / stimulated. +So...to be clear... +ALL of the above are orgasms. +To be even MORE clear... +NONE of the above are what YOU get to experience. +Your challenge is to be Orgasm Free until 2023. +It's certainly possible your partner could fuck you into a Sissygasm. Certainly, you'll fail once in a while. We can't do anything about that. Hopefully, for your sake, you don't get punished. Or depending on how submissive you are, hopefully you do. +GLOSSARY (cont.) +Edging - masturbating for hours by bringing yourself to the brink of orgasm and then stopping. +Note: edging is not an orgasm. +Milking - extracting sperm from the epididymis. One common way is through the use of a prostate milking tool--such as an Aneros. Milking is essentially any activity where sperm gets extracted and/or released from the male without the assistance of an orgasm. +Note: milking is not an orgasm. +ALL of the above in Glossary (cont.) are not orgasms. ALL of the above in Glossary (cont.) are what you DO get to experience on your quest to be Orgasm Free until 2023. +FINAL GLOSSARY TERM +Real Ruined Orgasm (RRO) - the orgasm doesn't happen but the physical proof that it was about to is present: cloudy sperm (not clear) at the tip of the penis slit. Sperm collects or even dribbles out--but is not spurting. There are NO contractions. The orgasm didn't happen. Hence it is ruined or RRO. Think of it as sperm extraction. +Note: a RRO is not an orgasm. +Now that we have all the terms cleared up, let's get back to the subject in your hand. +IT'S TIME TO BUY YOUR CHASTITY DEVICE +Being Orgasm Free until 2023 means that you will be in almost constant chastity. I'm sure you saw this coming. I denied offering this information-- until now--on purpose. Timing is everything. +Unless you already own one, you'll need to buy a locking chastity device for your puny penis. There are all kinds of exciting styles on the market. +Just search, ""male chastity device,"" and you'll find metal, plastic, silicon, etc... Pick one that excites you and represents you. You just need to make sure it has a locking device that requires a key. +You'll need to tell your wife or girlfriend or boyfriend or whomever...that you are taking your sissification dedication to new heights. And your pathetic little sissy penis is not deserving of an orgasm anymore and you'll spend all year proving it. +Of course, that doesn't mean you don't get to cum. That's where the glossary comes into play. Review RRO. +HOW TO BE ORGASM FREE +Here is your ""How To"" guide for complete orgasm denial. +Or in other words, this is how your challenge will work: +Anytime you are wanting to Edge, you ARE allowed to take your puny penis out of chastity temporarily. Surprised? Keep reading. You'll see how this will all come out. +You can unlock your little penis and take it out to Edge anytime you want. But the rest of the day and night you are locked in chastity. Sleeping, showering, whatever...you are locked. Yes, this sounds kind of fun, so far, doesn't it? You are already imagining masturbating all the time. Funny enough, you could be. BUT no orgasms. Absolutely...N O...orgasms. Only RRO. +You've already been edging yourself enough times as a sissy to know what it feels like when your orgasm is near. But here is where your 2022 outcomes change. You are going to train your sissy reproductive system to express itself. You are going to learn to dribble cum from your penis without having any orgasmic contractions. You will then become the ultimate sissy. +FIND YOUR METHOD TO SUCCEED +I've personally trained several sissies to achieve this reality using two different methods. I will describe them to you with the expectation you will find mastery in one or both methods. +Method 1 - You've already mastered or will master the recognition of the precise point-of-no-return through Edging. After several hours--or several almost peaks--you do this right when you stop: Hold your breath and push like you are taking a shit. If your sperm is just under the surface--which it should be--this technique will produce your cum dribble. It's a Real Ruined Orgasm (RRO); the orgasm doesn't happen. Caution: you won't want to do this again on the very next Edge. You'll need to put time in between--say 20 minutes--before doing it again. +Method 2 - Edge the same as Method 1. +After several hours--or several almost peaks--you do this right when you stop: +You add one or two (even three) additional very, very slight penis rubs while taking rapid breaths--like you're hyperventilating. If your sperm is just under the surface--which it should be--this technique can also produce your cum dribble. Another way to Ruin the orgasm you are NOT going to have. +Breathing techniques in Method 1 and 2 can prevent orgasmic contractions. I confess it will take lots of practice. But I can assure you that this is very very doable as I've seen it successfully performed many times. +And, keep in mind, you are going to fail. +You'll fail once in a while. We can't do anything about that. Hopefully, for your sake, you don't get punished. Or depending on how submissive you are, hopefully you do. LOL. +PLAN P +If you just can't train your body to extract sperm through either of the RRO Methods, then you must convert to Plan P. P is for prostate. +However, your consequence for not mastering Method 1 or 2 is that Plan P consummates in chastity. +You still get to Edge all you want. You'll still get that load out that you normally would shoot (that is, before you advanced your sissification), but with Plan P you'll then lock your soft pathetic little wiener backup and retrieve your Aneros. It's time to finish the job. +Note: Make sure you pee first. +P is for probe. +Scroll up and re-read the ""Milking"" definition. It should be coming more clear to you why the glossary was needed in this ""How To"" story. You will learn to milk yourself. It's actually fairly easy to express your sperm without an orgasm when you've Edged for hours. Your cum is sitting there just below the surface. When you insert your Aneros it snuggles your prostate. It's built for this job. All you need to learn how to do is to move the milking tool around: +A swiping left to right motion. +A slight press down and tug maneuver. +Repeat the swiping; repeat the tug. +Make sure you have a plate underneath your locked penis. Sperm will start dribbling out.

This means, in theory, that the man or woman of your dreams is only separated from you by six other people. So where are they, and why haven't you found them yet, you wonder? You've certainly waded through more than six between blind dates, bar hook-ups and chat rooms! The problem is that while six may seem like a very small number, and we'd all like to believe in karma and synchronicity, the reality is that six degrees of separation actually makes for abysmal odds of meeting your destiny. Why? Because it's not just any six people, we're talking about, it's the _right_ six people. It might be more beneficial to look at this: how are you unknowingly keeping yourself from meeting your future mate? Relying on the wheel of fortune to spin you into a relationship utopia is idealistic, but not realistic. Here are six things you might be inadvertently doing to keep yourself separate from Mr. or Ms. Right! +1\. Expectations +If you're looking for Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie, I have news for you... they've already found each other! I know women and men who have a laundry list of requirements about the opposite sex that they strictly adhere to when choosing a potential date. By being rigid and sticking to those self-imposed restrictions, you may miss out on an amazing human being. So she's twenty pounds overweight, or wears glasses, or has a lazy eye... or maybe he's balding, or shorter than you, or has back hair... making these things ""deal- breakers"" are going to keep you detached for longer than you may want. Looks fade, and by the time you've spent your whole lifetime with Mr. or Ms. Perfect, they're not going to be so perfect anymore, anyway. The old adage, ""It's the inside that counts"" certainly proves true over time. Even Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will be old and wrinkled some day. Loosening your expectations will make those odds of meeting your soul mate shoot way up. Besides, people can lose weight, wear contacts, or join the ""hair club for men,"" and there's always waxing! +2\. Home Alone +In spite of the image of the swinging single, most unpartnered people spend their evenings at home. If you only go out once a month, or you decline an invitation to a party because you ""don't know anyone there,"" or you find yourself watching the Friday night television lineup more often than not, then you're probably keeping yourself separate from your future partner. I know you work forty hours a week and you're tired, but I also know that you have other interests that you could be pursuing besides eating Doritos and watching Dancing With the Stars. If you're into books, check out the book store; if you're into music, go see a local band; if you like to laugh, there's the local comedy club. That way, you've increased your chances of meeting that special someone who is interested in similar things, and even if you don't, you were doing something enjoyable, anyway. +3\. Body Language +A lot of what we say never comes out of our mouths. Our bodies express things nonverbally all the time to other human beings. The girl over there with her eyes downcast, twisting a piece of her hair around her finger... what is she saying? What about the guy in the corner, chewing on his straw and tapping his foot? See what I mean? You can send all sorts of body language that says ""No!"" while your heart and mind are saying, ""Yes!"" Your most important body language tools are your face, your eyes, your hands, and your posture. If you're one of those people who ""never smiles,"" now is the time to give up that habit. A warm smile is one of the best ways to communicate interest in another person. Prolonged, direct eye contact also spells, ""I'm interested in you,"" as does turning your body fully towards a person. If you have any small tics or annoying gestures, you can practice not doing them. They can be distracting, and may make you appear nervous or overenthusiastic. You also need to pay attention to your posture. No, I don't mean you have to walk around with a book on your head, but you do need to notice whether you slouch, or hunch over, or keep your head down, because that implies a lack of confidence. Conversely, if you tend to puff yourself up and swagger a lot, you might convey a bit of overconfidence or arrogance. Body language is something we simply do, almost without thinking, but it's worth paying attention to, because even if you find ""the one"" standing in line at the supermarket, but you end up turning away out of shyness, you may lose your opportunity to lend destiny a hand. +4\. Fear of Rejection +We're all afraid of being rejected. It's like a universal truth. No one wakes up to greet the sun and thinks brightly, ""I'm going to go out and be rejected today!"" If we've been rejected a lot, we can get stuck in the pattern of not trying, not risking, and this makes it impossible to meet your future partner (unless you get lucky and he or she falls miraculously into your lap at your cousin's wedding or something.) The other old adage, ""All life is risk,"" also proves to be true. You aren't going to find Cathy Compatible or Steven Simpatico if you're too afraid to approach them in the first place. So how do you get over your fear of rejection? I'm afraid, as the Nike logo says, you ""Just do it!"" Eventually you will be rewarded for your efforts, although it may seem like an exercise in patience in the meantime. +5\. Forego the Familiar +You go out to the same bar every weekend, you see the same people, you talk about the same things, it's like Cheers, everybody knows your name. What's wrong with this picture? It may be familiar, but you're decreasing your chances of meeting new people. If you find yourself stuck in this rut, it may be time to mix it up a little, go to a different club, or better yet, forget the club scene entirely—the rumors about that are true, too, it's a fairly oversaturated meat market—and take up a hobby, it doesn't matter what as long as you're interested in it, watercolor painting, bungi jumping, tai chi. The one caveat here is that if you pick a predominately feminine or masculine hobby (say, sewing or boxing, respectively) you're probably only going to meet people of the same gender, and if you're goal is to meet members of the opposite sex, you've cut your odds considerably. I'd suggest you pick something more gender neutral, or even something the opposite sex seems more interested in. Guys, take up cooking, you should know how to do it, anyway! Girls, try a karate class, it could save your life some night, or at least keep Mr. Wrong at bay. And who knows, you may find your future partner making soufflés or practicing ""wax-on, wax-off!"" +6\. Follow Through +Say you think you may have found the one, right here at the local Starbucks of all places, you've struck up a conversation, things have gotten pretty deep fairly quickly, you're finishing each other's sentences, sparks are flying, but alas, the coffee house is closing, and you've both got to work in the morning. Six degrees of separation, and yet there she was, right in front of you, against all odds... but you forgot to get her phone number. Or you wrote it on a napkin, but your roommate used it to wipe up his Gatorade spill in the kitchen. If you think you've connected with your soul mate, the one yard line is the worst and most tragic place to fumble the ball! Not to mix sports metaphors, but your follow-through is more important than ever now. Make sure you get a phone number, and also try to plan another time to meet if you can (""I'm going to be here tomorrow night, you?"") Most of all, don't forget to actually use the contact information you do receive. Many opportunities have been lost because someone was too afraid to pick up the phone and take a chance to make a connection." +790,The Six Secrets of Sizzling Sex,BatsandGlamour,How To,2003-09-19,2003-09-19,2022-01-04 08:40:32,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-six-secrets-of-sizzling-sex,Or...be all you can be in the bedroom.,"['Fuck Great', 'Great Sex', 'Hard Work', 'Improve Sex', 'Knowing Cock', 'Mentally Physically', 'Reading Article', 'Sex Lives', 'Time Place', 'Times Day']",4.56,"First, please forgive the title. I know it sounds like one of those silly articles in _Cosmopolitan Magazine._ But if the title got you here, please stay a few minutes – you may learn something. I've always thought that picking up one point than enhances your sex life is worth the time invested reading an article. You decide. +If you've come here anticipating concrete tips on the nuts and bolts of better sex, I invite you to read one of my other articles, _Blowjobs for Dummies, How to Eat Pussy Like a Champ or Sexual Positions for Lovers_ , for example. In those articles I've detailed where to stick your tongue, where to put your fingers, plus who and what to cum on, or in. +My goal here is a bit different. I've had a lot of feedback email from readers of both sexes, asking how they can improve their sex lives. I should say, _my_ opinion of how an individual can improve their sex life. Unless you're one the people in a relationship, you can really only speculate and offer advice. I'm not there in the room. If I were, I'd have my camcorder, a bottle of champagne, a blindfold and some duct tape, then there'd be no questions to ask. But that's another issue. +The point is that in listening to people with similar situations, you begin to postulate on what can really help improve their sex lives on a regular basis; not ""get her drunk, bud – that'll help."" +What I almost invariably find is that one partner is ready and rarin' to go, while the other is on a different wave length entirely. Women who are dripping, trembling and ready to fuck themselves in every hole with a hair brush, while their husbands sit in front of the TV and when confronted with a teddy-wearing, lust brimming wife, say ""not now, honey, I'm watching this program."" Or guys...and we know who we are...who seem to have a perpetual erection and defy the stereotype of the bored husband or boyfriend completely. Ready to have sex first thing out of the shower – hell, _in_ the shower – against the kitchen sink, over the couch, in the car – anywhere – but are repelled with apathy or excuses. This leads me to my first and perhaps most important point: + **Choose the Right Partner** +So simple, it's nearly ridiculous, right? I know. If you're married or in a serious relationship, it may be too late - or not. But imagine if you before you made a commitment what you know now. You'd realize that initial passion dies down and what you're left with for the rest of your time together is how deep-seated a desire that person truly has. How much they love _sex_ – not just you. If they can't get enough of you and can't wait to fuck – that's great. But many people who make a life-long, or at least long-term commitment based on this first 12-18 months of passion end up...shall I say, disappointed. +You can't change a leopard's spots. I didn't make up this line. My line would be, you can't change a person's desire. You would think that if someone married, say, a supermodel or gorgeous actress, all they'd want to do for the rest of their life was have sex with them ten times a day. Sure – for a while. Then their passion would ebb, and begin to look like the stock averages last year, down...down...down...as they get used to her beauty. +Would that happen to me? Honestly, no. And I'm not just saying that. I may be a rare breed, but I just love to kiss, to eat pussy, have my cock worshipped and sure...to fuck with gusto. Unless she decides to forfeit her lips, pussy and legs, I'll still be interested for good. Will I look at other women? I'm not blind...just nearsightedide. But when I have a woman that remains passionate about, well, passion, then I can be faithful. Hasn't happened, but... +Bottom line: if you've chosen a person with passion similar to yours, you've made a wise – and lucky - decision for life. If you're not sure yet, delay the decision until you are. I can't over-exaggerate the importance of this point, as hard as it may be to hear. With all the things that are important in a relationship; honesty, hard work, good financial potential, surely sexual incompatibility can't be the make or break item, right? Wrong. Why are you at this website? Why are you reading this article? If you don't know in your heart by now that sexual incompatibility is something that will come back to haunt you, you may very well find out via nights of frustration and months of longing at a time. +If you're on the verge of making such a decision, please take these points into consideration –that's all I'm asking. +You can't have sizzling sex alone (satisfying sex...maybe – sizzling...no). The right partner is the difference between sizzling sex and fizzling sex. Maybe for a lifetime. + **Feeling Good about Yourself** +How did this point make its way into a sex article? Is this the Oprah show? +When Oprah has a segment entitled ""Oral – is giving better than receiving?"" then there'll be no more need for my articles. +We're talking about sizzling sex here. Can sex be sizzling, even satisfying, if you don't feel good about yourself, if you lack confidence? I'm not saying you have to be ""super confident,"" comfortable in all situations and the master of all you survey. But I mean enough confidence to know that the person having sex with you, or the potential for it, is one lucky guy or girl! They're not doing _you_ any favor; you're enjoying _each other_. +And what does this take? Do you have to be a gorgeous magazine cover girl or fitness magazine guy? Hardly. These are unrealistic expectations for most of us. But if you feel flabby, out of shape, need a haircut, dress like a slob; you probably won't feel sexy. +And this is what a lot of sex is about – your confidence level. +Speaking of Oprah or some of the other talk shows, have you ever seen one of the makeover segments? They take a woman, for instance. Put her on a low-carb diet, such as Atkins or the South Beach Diet for a month. Have her walk around the block a couple of dozen times a day, maybe lift some light weights, and the fat melts off. Then they cut or color her hair, which has been the same style since 1988, and make her up. Finally, they take the sweat suit off and dress her nicely and viola! She's suddenly a _babe_. And it was inside of her all the time. +Man or women, we all get older, busier and out of shape. I defy any woman to give birth a few times and stay tight, much less have any time to exercise. I remember when I was 20 years old. An hour of weight lifting a week and when I took my shirt off, girls took notice. How easy it was... +I'll never be 20 again. So now it's a couple hours a week running and a couple more hours lifting. Light on the carbs, easy on the beer, sane with the pizza. It's not all that tough to keep a flat stomach and some tone in your arms, chest and shoulders. All it takes is regular discipline. +The reward is how you feel about yourself, and this comes through in feeling sexy, feeling that someone would want to have sex with you. I mean it, confidence is _sexy_. When you project the fact that you feel good about yourself, you give off an aura of self-assurance that actually improves with age. So I don't care if you're 20 or 60, you make the most of what you've got. And speaking about making the most of what you've got... + **Highlight Your Best Features** +I knew a girl many years ago that in all actuality was relatively average looking. Except that she had startlingly blue eyes. When she was done up, with eye liner and whatever else girls do to their eyes that way, they sparkled. When I looked into her eyes I melted, that's how sexy they were. One feature, done right...instant sex appeal. +I know another lady in her 40s. Her legs are just gorgeous. Long, shapely, muscular calves – just the way I like them. I'd like to lick my way up to her thighs and...no matter. But whenever I see her, she's wearing pants. At affairs, long dresses. No one ever sees her legs. If she wore shorts and high heels the guys would be following her home and her husband would never let her leave. But no. +It's the same thing with nice, full breasts, sumptuous lips or even great hair. You've got to take your best feature and underscore it so that it just can't be ignored. Everyone's got _something_ sexy about himself or herself. +Nothing, however, is sexier than attitude. Not cockiness, not snobbery. An attitude that says without words, ""I'll fuck you half to death, and then finish the other half. I'll suck your cock until you don't just cum – you explode."" +My friend is the most mild-mannered guy you could ever see. When he's done with his wife, she's covered with goose bumps, sweat and cum – and loving every minute of it. All he's got to do is look at her with an expression that says ""you know just what's coming, don't you?"" and she begins to moisten her panties. It's his _attitude_ that he highlights. +It comes down to making the most of what you've got. If you're a stunning woman or a naturally handsome man – good for you. That's not where it ends though. I've known plenty of guys much better looking than me who never got half the sex. They figured their looks would be enough. They were wrong. While they were strutting around waiting to be noticed, I was learning how to please a woman in bed, how to make her laugh, to make her feel special – make her feel good and more important, make her feel _bad_. Looks alone is not your ticket. One good feature – that's all. Use it. + **Make Your Own Movie** +Sizzling sex for one person may be a lovely lady sitting in a chair: her legs duct-taped to each chair leg; eyes blindfolded; not knowing when a cock might pierce her open lips; nipples fully erect and breathing like she's just run a marathon as her pussy is ravaged by a warm, wet tongue. But enough about _my_ preferences. Sizzling sex for someone else might be a candle-lit dinner followed by warm, passionate missionary position on the bed for 15 minutes. +That's for you and your partner to decide. As long as you are in-synch. If she's longing to be bent over the couched and stuffed like a baked potato, and your idea of sexual excitement is to keep the lights on, you may have a dilemma. That's where communication and compatibility comes in. +But the worst thing you can do is to compare your sex life to someone else's. It creates nothing but dissatisfaction. I've always felt that when it comes to money, sex and, well, more sex, that the guideposts you should use are your own desires, not someone else's stories. ""I came five times, she licked my asshole for a half hour, I ate strawberries out of her pussy until she screamed my name over and over ""(well, _that_ one I believe). I've heard an awful lot of stories about great sex, but the ones I believe the most are my own. +Don't believe that everyone but you is having the great sex. They're not. But _you_ can. Here's the best way: + **Pick the Right Time and Place** +When I was living with my girlfriend in college, the right time and place was anywhere and everywhere in the apartment. For many people, things are different. +I promise you, if you expect great sex right after the kids finally go to bed, the laundry is folded and your wife falls on the bed, exhausted, or when your husband gets home after a day of negotiating for Middle-East peace...forget it. And have a heart. You both have needs, but the wrong time and place is not the right way to go about it. +Let me digress for a moment. Sometimes you want a long, leisurely, passionate sexual experience. Sometimes you just want to fuck and cum. If you're both tired but frisky, settle for the slam and sleep. But not all the time, and don't expect it to suffice for long. +Let me explain. A quick fuck is a great way to end an evening and a wonderful release. I love it. But it's like eating an appetizer for me. Within a few days, I had better get a meal, or I'm going to become frustrated and believe me, it's not pretty. What's a meal? Alright, since you asked. It's kissing, rubbing and holding. It's titty play and having my cock rubbed. It's spreading her legs and doing my favorite thing – using my tongue like a biomedical exploratory instrument, leading to a shaking, shuddering orgasm. It's having my cock licked, the head sucked, and my balls attended to. It's fucking in at least two or three positions and, if I'm lucky and the stars are aligned, maybe a little. anal. There it is. +I can assure you that this is _not_ going to be in the program after a day of hard work and a night of cooking, cleanup and childcare. Therefore, the more you want good sex, the more arranging you're going to have to do. Drop the kids off at Grandma's, go home and rock the house. Get a baby-sitter and get away for a day. You might have to be creative. +We used to have an arrangement with another young couple in the neighborhood. They'd pick up our kids and go for ice cream or to the mall for an hour or two. In the meantime, we'd have a champagne and vibrator party. When they got back, they'd drop off their kids and we'd take them and our children to a movie or park for a while. They'd go home, have a cocktail and fuck like...well, I can only imagine – she way pretty. +You can see what I mean. Make plans and get creative, and you can have that full-course meal sex. And you've _got_ to make that time if you want a great sex life. + **Take Care of #1** +You've heard this one before, but not from me. Because when I say take care of number one, I'm talking about your lover. Who else would I mean? +But a lot of lovers make sure their needs are taken care of first, and these are the ones who don't _deserve_ a return engagement. +For guys this means, primarily, take your time! Why is it that after five minutes of kissing you're ready to get your cock sucked? I talk to my mechanic longer than that when he's changing my oil for Pete's sake. I'm not saying there aren't times when you're both tired and want to get down to business, but make this the exception, not the rule. Do you want to be thought of as a good lover? Then here's what you've got to do: +* Take your time. Kiss her tenderly, rub her neck, her shoulders, her breasts, and move down to her lower back. There's not a lady in the world that doesn't love to be caressed. +* Give her the oral sex of her life. Make sure she cums _at least_ once before you even _think_ of your own pleasure. Lick her clit and find her G-spot – her moans will be your reward. +* When she's sucking your cock, tell her how good it feels, give her encouragement. +* Do not, I repeat, DO NOT cum too quick. Take it slow, stop every now and then when you feel you're going to cum – changing positions is a natural way to do this – but give her at least a 10-15 minute ride on your bony express. +* When you finally do cum, be a gentleman, and be tender. Get her a tissue first, if there's anything to wipe off. Kiss her and tell her how nice it was. Be honest. +Ladies: Do you want to please your man? A couple of tricks: +* Take care of him. Tell him things like, ""baby, you make me want you so much."" We all like to be mentally – and physically – stroked. +* _Worship_ his cock. Lick it, look him in the eyes while you stroke it. Moan your approval when you suck it, rub his wet cock all over your face. Place it between your tits and titty fuck him, looking him in the eyes and whisper, ""I'm going to take good care of your cock baby. You're going to cum for me...more than once."" It's _beyond_ hot knowing she wants your cock badly and wants to make sure you cum over and over. +* Moan like a porn star when he goes down on you. It's the greatest motivation and eventually becomes second nature – helping you get into it even more... +Well there we have it, six steps towards making your sex life all it can be. Are these the only six steps? I doubt it, and you may be doing some or all of these things right now. I hope you are, or that I've reminded you of the things you used to do and got away from. Get back to them. There's nothing finer, mentally or physically, than connecting with someone on an intimate level. You should do it as often as you can – it's what life is all about.

Press harder then. +Experiment a little to find the pleasure level that makes him go soft. +Patience ... enjoy yourself ... +Watch your slave closely, +This is always a good time to make him promise he will do anything for you, he will say it , you can have him write it down, Make sure he says he is your slave boy, and that he wants to be your servant , make him say it more than once. +Does your slave find your feet sexy, you are about to find out , put you foot on his balls. Remember careful, you don't want to break your new toy. Put some pressure on his cock and balls, make him sit on the floor , put his cock on the floor and step on his cock, watch him, make his say if he wants you to apply more pressure , As Long as He is hard he enjoys it, even if he says otherwise. +Now, we shouldn't leave clamps and rope on for too long. You can take the clamps off gently or pull them off roughly, did he like pain? +Having clamps just taken off hurts as blood flows back into the nipples, this makes them more sensitive so this is a good time to bite or pinch them. +Untie the rope on his balls so he can cum (but don't make him cum yet) +Would you like to cum on his face again? Go ahead; he is there for your pleasure. +Enjoy him for as long as you like. +Now it is time for you to decide if and how he should cum. +If you have never denied him, then it is worth a try, or you can always tease him by saying no and changing your mind. +Maybe you will enjoy teasing him like that... but expect him to be horny for a while, if you deny him. +You can have fun by bringing him close to a orgasm, make his say that he is close and stop. +This can be fun entertainment for any mistress. +Tease him a little with this option; make his say if he wants you to keep teasing him or if he wants you to let him cum, make him beg you for it, Make beg you to let him wear some of your lingerie , take a picture , make him beg you to take pictures of you , threaten to post them on line, +Make him put on woman's panties, bra, stockings, make him wear a button up shirt and pants, make him drive to the local store, in the parking lot make him unbutton the shirt so you can see some of his bra, and open the fly so maybe some people can see the panties , make him buy a red lipstick , and any other makeup he wants , ( you can go with him ) if you want to or when he is back at the car he can call you , +Tell him to apply the lipstick, and makeup, he bought , take off the pants and drive back home, ( hopefully he gets pulled over ) , in the driveway , make his take off his shirt , and walk back into the house slowly. +Now sit back on the couch and have him lap your pussy , until you have another orgasm .

Lavishing erotically in the wet slick feeling as everyone’s body is generously covered in a glistening slippery oil. All heaped together in one welded mass of gleaming flesh, slowly gyrating and thrusting in unison to achieve the ultimate orgasmic bliss. +The wholesome feeling of virtually no resistive friction, as your slippery rod slides with absolute ease, thrusting passionately into your partner’s glistening oily body. Enjoying the purest form of pleasure your union can provide. With a lubricity that practically eliminates any painful friction. +But what is available? +Adult supply stores carries several brands of oils, many are excellent, but are sold in small quantities and they all can incur a considerable cost when a large quantity is needed. Believe me I find nothing wrong with many of these brands, and have at times used quiet a few of them. +Then there are cheaper variations used by many to overcome the ever-increasing cost factor. Such as using vegetable oils or cooking grease, of course the taste leaves something to be desired. These products also do not offer the pure lubricity needed. Not to mention they make cleanup harder. +Or another idea would be a more fragrant and somewhat palatable versions, of the many types of baby oils available. Which does have a good scent but will absorb into the skin over a short time, leaving the body once again dry and prone to friction burn. +In my years of searching I believe I have developed an answer to the age-old question of delightful slippery sexual emancipation. With an easy to make product that not only is edible, but also has an excellent fragrance that can be altered to suit individual taste, with an excellent degree of long lasting lubricity for hours of sexual fulfillment. Of all the different recipes I have found this one seems to do just what is needed. Almost ten years of incredible orgasmic research had been done in modifying the recipe. I now feel I have a working version for all to enjoy within their individual sexual taste and preferences. And the cost factor has been considerably reduced as you can make almost a quart supply for only a few dollars. With such a quantity you can easily cover twenty people for hours of sexual fun, which will easily heighten your sexual awareness to a new plateau of ecstasy. +We have given our sensual massage oil the name “slick’em.” As this seems to be the only name capable of conveying the true benefits of the oil. +Note of the ingredients listed I have found that the generic products works just as good as the name brand products. +3 parts of paraffin wax +5 parts of Vaseline +20 parts of heavy mineral oil +Optional: +Oil based food flavorings Clove oil +Several empty clean containers with lids. +Now you have your ingredients, what do we do next? Well a word of safety would be prudent at this point, the ingredients are melted into a double broiler, which basically is a pot sitting inside of a pot of water. Be careful the ingredients are flammable when exposed to open flame in its liquid state. Wax and Vaseline will turn to its liquid state at approximately 77 degrees Fahrenheit. +With that being said I believe we are ready to begin. The ingredients are all added together in a container, which is placed into a larger container holding a few inches of water, and heated on low heat. Stir the mixture every few minute as it slowly melts. This does take some time and patience is needed here, I know the rewards outweigh the efforts. Once melted it will become a clear liquid. +Now comes the fun part. Once melted you can begin to add different oil based food flavoring until the desired taste and fragrance is achieved. I have always preferred six drops of spearmint flavoring. Please keep in mind these oil-based flavorings are in a concentrate form, therefore only a few drops are needed per batch. Do not use potpourri-scented oils they are not edible. Please make sure the oils you choose are of a food grade quality. +Now if you would like to add the feeling of heat when you blow on the skin like the popular name brands of “Motion Lotion.” You can easily create the effect by adding four drops of clove oil to your mixture. Be careful as adding too much will feel hot like Ben Gay and can be uncomfortable, but also useful if you need massage oil for sore muscles. +Once the mixture has the desired scent you want it is done. I would now recommend removing the container from the hot water. Using a towel wipe any water from the outside of the container. Carefully pour your mixture into the storage containers and let it cool to room temperature it will take several hours but it will harden to a soft consistency and take on a color of a subtle white cream, at this point your slick’em is now ready for use. +Be careful not to mix water or water-based food coloring or flavoring into the oil it will not blend and will ruin the batch. +Oil based food flavorings can be found at a gourmet supply shops. Home hobby shops sell small plastic containers with lids. Which makes excellent storage containers for your mixture, and the plastic construction of the containers offers a degree of safety when things get slippery. +Ok now you have your batch of slick’em what next. Well assuming you have your partner or partners ready for hours of non-stop fun. We have found that a full size shower curtain spread across the bed or floor works great. For those who still own a waterbed the plastic mattress also offers a surface that can be wiped off once the fun is over. +The stage is set we have the area setup and a supply of Slick’em now comes the fun part as everyone sits on the plastic surface facing each other, of if you wish each person faces the person to their right forming a circle. With the players in place a container of slick’em is placed in the middle for everyone to reach. Taking your time you slowly begin to cover each other’s body slowly massaging and exploring each other’s erogenous areas. Well I believe you know the rest. But an ample supply of paper towels close at hand will make clean up easier. +Cleanup is easy and you have the added bonus of showering together afterwards. Which gives yet another opportunity to enjoy each other’s sensual charms all over again, as you clean each other off. +Slick’em comes in handy for many situations, such as when you are in the mood but the body hasn’t enough lubrication. No worry just “slick it.” +Your partner needs a sensual massage and you don’t want to rub dry hands across the body, just “slick it.” +You are getting ready for a good old fashion gangbang but don’t want to hurt your partner, just “slick it.” +Feeling the need to experiment with anal sex and need a good lubricant, just “slick it.” +You are alone and feel the urge to play with yourself. Add to the excitement and just “slick it.” +We are sure you will find many other sensual uses and just “slick it.” +Of course there are many other uses such as a gift. With a satin ribbon and condoms decorating the container you now have a house-warming gift. As an example, for the new neighbor that has been sun bathing nude in their back yard. Or even a gift to hand out at the next swingers party. I am sure you can think of many other uses, keep an open mind and remember your imagination is your only limitation. + **Health Note:** +Always test a small amount on your skin to make sure there isn’t an allergic reaction. If you feel there might be a reaction please consult your doctor. This is basically a mild laxative based mix, so an overdose like ingesting a cupful will most assuredly be followed by a lengthy visit to your throne." +793,Slut Rules,Secretwriter25,How To,2021-01-18,2021-01-18,2022-01-04 08:38:44,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/slut-rules,A series of rules for slut training a submissive.,"['Rules', 'Slut', 'Training']",3.98,"""Em"" and I started slut training a few months ago as an extension of our BDSM activities. I have been setting increasingly challenging tasks for her to complete, to test and increase her obedience, to raise her body confidence and to bring out her slutty, sexual side. I'm sure I'll be documenting some of them here, but they have included public nudity, sending me erotic photos and videos, writing on her body, using new sex toys and learning to love looking and feeling sexy. But, for the time being, here are the rules I laid out from the outset to guide her training. This isn't necessarily a ""how to"" guide for slut training. If you want that, think of this as a starting point. I might write more on that in future if this proves popular. +However, I've looked for ideas online for Dominants wishing to train their submissives and there seems to be relatively slim pickings. What there is often seems to be written by fantasists, bullies or those with unrealistic ideas of what to expect. Of course, there is a very big difference between a good Dominant and a bully or abuser. The Dominant uses their power to make the submissive fulfil their own fantasies. In a good D/s relationship, the Dominant only appears to hold all the power; the submissive holds the ultimate veto. And the Dominant always cares for the submissive after playing. Aftercare is non-negotiable in my view. +A quick note on our definition of what constitutes a slut for our purposes, before I dive into the rules. Em is a monogamous slut. We are an exclusive couple, we haven't shared each other and (although it regularly pops up in our fantasy play) we don't intend to in the near future. Sluttiness, in this case, does not equate to promiscuity. She wanted to become more overtly sexual, and to explore just how far she could go by unleashing her exhibitionist, sexy, flirtatious and submissive side. She enjoys being used and objectified, feeling depraved and dirty, and pushing the boundaries that society puts on ""good girls"". +So, that brings us to the rules. +Slut rules +1\. A slut exists solely for pleasure, her own and that of everybody around her. When it stops being safe or fun, sluttiness stops. Safe Words are sacrosanct and will be used by the slut without fear of reprisal or of disappointing her Master. Her Master will respond to any Safe Word instantly and either ease off any activity, or make her safe and secure, and comfort her immediately, depending on the Safe Word. +2\. A slut is a machine for sex. She exists to have orgasms and to be an agent of others' pleasure and sexual gratification. That is the core of her being and her highest function. In the outside world, she is a strong, independent, successful woman and her Master respects this. However, when she is being a slut, she is a sex object to be used for the pleasure of herself and those around her +3\. A slut craves cum. Her skin is a canvas to be painted with semen. Her mouth is a chalice to be filled with sperm. In time, her body will become a receptacle for her Master's cum. +4\. A slut always has choices. If there is a choice between wearing underwear or not, the preference is not. Between showing off her body or covering up, the preference is to show her body. Between sexy and practical, the preference is sexy. Between make up and bare, it's make up. Between respectability and sluttiness, the preference is sluttiness. +5\. A slut's sexuality is not her own. Any orgasm she has will be reported to her Master. If she is propositioned for sex, the request is to be referred to her Master. If she wants to masturbate, use erotica or porn, she will report it to her Master as soon as is practicable afterwards and if she is asked to, describe it in detail. +6\. A slut's entire reason for existing is to provide carnal pleasure for herself and for her Master. She will actively seek new ideas, kinks, fantasies and activities to further their pleasure, and share them with her Master for His approval. +7\. A slut takes direction from her Master without thinking. Obey first, think second. Her self is subordinate to her obedience, her sexuality and her libido. +8\. A slut exists to give and receive pleasure. She is actively encouraged to flirt with anyone and everyone, male or female, she encounters. At her discretion or at the direction of her Master, she may allow them glimpses of her intimate areas, talk to or touch them in a flirty way or otherwise enjoy her and their sexuality. Anything beyond this requires permission from her Master. +9\. A slut's body is sexy and attractive. It is built for pleasure. She is comfortable with her sluttiness and sexiness. She should be proud of her body, maintain it to the best of her ability, and want to show it off to her Master and to others. She should revel in her sexuality and enjoy her body and its natural sexual functions to the utmost. +10\. A slut is required to share her thoughts, emotions, fears and desires. The form this takes is to be agreed with her Master, but she should record her descent into sluttiness, obedience, hypersexuality and submissiveness and share it with him." +794,So You Want to be a Cuckold...,WorshipTheDivineGoddess,How To,2018-06-22,2018-06-22,2022-01-04 08:38:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/so-you-want-to-be-a-cuckold,The cuckold fantasy and how to make it a reality.,"['Cheating', 'Cuck', 'Cuckold', 'Dominance', 'Femdom', 'Flr', 'How To Be A Cuckold', 'Infidelity', 'Submission', 'Wlm']",4.28,"_A note to perplexed wives:_ +If you've found this story in your husband's browsing history, congratulations! You hit the jackpot --you have yourself a cuck husband! Please keep an open mind and remember that he wants to see YOUR sexual liberation. If you choose to get into this, YOU should be the one in control. If he's a true cuck, he'll accept that and let you take the lead. +Also, you should consider the possibility that he left this story in his browsing history, or in a place where you could find it, on purpose, as a passive way of bringing up the topic. Don't be too hard on him, he's only trying to be more open with you about his sexual needs. +*** +So you want to be a cuckold? +Here's the good news: YOUR WIFE WANTS TO CHEAT ON YOU. +How do I know? Because your wife is a human being and it's a biological fact that human beings are wired to desire a variety and multiplicity of sexual partners. This includes your wife. +But let's back up and talk about you, the would-be cuckold. I suspect that the biggest obstacle between you and the realization of your dream is your own shame and social conditioning. One of the things that makes the cuckold fantasy so appealing is that it runs counter to the typical image of masculinity. Men are supposed to jealously guard 'their' women as if they were property. It is more socially acceptable to assault a man who sleeps with your wife than it is to consent to, or encourage, the so-called infidelity. Why is that? Why is violence more tolerated than dropping the he-man pose? +We learn what it means to be a Man through our culture, and our culture imparts values to us --most of which we accept without thinking. The strongest kinds of ideologies are the ones that we don't even see as ideologies --the ones that we see as just facts of nature, or as 'the way things are.' +But we don't live in nature, we live in a human-constructed world, and things are the way they are because we made them that way. +Is there convincing evidence that male jealousy and possessiveness are biologically driven? +It's true that testosterone is associated with a quicker temper and a higher propensity for violence. But body chemistry can be affected by environment, and our cultural environment encourages anger and violence in certain situations, like when another man sleeps with your wife. This is supposed to be a challenge to your Manhood. In this situation, you are expected to react in a violent manner. Hormones can change behavior, but behavior can also change hormones. It's not a one way street. +I believe that the violence associated with 'infidelity' is not a reflection of hormonal, but of intellectual processes. We don't just have hormones, we have brains too, and it is our brains that come up with these hormonal explanations for cultural phenomena. +Racism was once supported by universally accepted 'scientific' research which showed certain races to be inferior to others. This was another cultural phenomenon that was supposed to be a reflection of the natural order. Of course it was all bullshit! +The idea that Masculinity is somehow an outgrowth of biological processes is a similar fallacy. Sorry to get academic on you, but on this score the academics happen to be correct: Masculinity is a construct. +And what is constructed can be deconstructed. Take you for instance: you were raised in a culture that abhors men who fail to live up to the ideals of Masculinity, and yet you have a fantasy of seeing your wife get fucked by another man. Maybe you're going against the grain because you're weird or damaged in some way, or maybe you just accidently deprogrammed yourself a little bit. Maybe society has to constantly reinforce and police these things because if it didn't THE WHOLE SHAM WOULD CRUMBLE! +A woman who loves to fuck and does so without shame is a powerful woman. You want your wife to be that woman. Why? Probably because you want to be sexually submissive to her. How shameful! You should be afraid to show your face in public! What if people found out??? +Shame is a powerful aphrodisiac, so maybe the origins of your sexual needs are the very things I've mentioned: social norms, Masculinity, fear of public reprobation, etc. This is the primordial gumbo out of which your fantasy emerged, so maybe it's not all bad. +Before I get into the How-To, I want to talk about two elements of cuck culture that are suspiciously over-represented in cuckold pornography, and might make people feel bad about the lifestyle. +Alpha/Beta: +In a lot of cuckold pornography, the man who fucks the wife is referred to as an Alpha Male, and the cuckold as a Beta Male. This is entirely stupid. +The terminology comes from research into gorilla social groups, where there can only be one Alpha Male per group, usually the biggest and strongest. This analogy puts the cuckold in a weak position. But if you think about it, even a little, you realize that the cuckold is getting exactly what he wants. What do you call a person who gets exactly what he wants? Weak? I don't think so. +And what does the true cuck want? To give COMPLETE control to his wife. +If there's an Alpha in a true cuckold situation, it's the wife, not the guy she's fucking. +But if the wife in the situation is just doing it to please her husband, then he's the one in control. A man might pimp out his wife or girlfriend, and you wouldn't call him a cuck. A pimp is doing it for money, but if he were getting something else out of it, like sexual satisfaction, it wouldn't change the power dynamic. That guy's a controlling asshole, manipulating his wife for his own ends. +This is the paradox, often commented on, in S/M relationships. The line between who's the 'top' and who's the 'bottom' becomes blurred when you look at the interior states and motivations of the participants. This dynamic is made even more complex by adding another person to the mix because that third person's motives also have to be accounted for. +This can also be confusing for newbie cucks because they have a sexual need to be out of control. Being under the control of your wife and being under the control of some random guy with a big dick are two very different things. Both of them might be a turn on, but one of them is more likely to make you feel bad about yourself in the morning. +If the Alpha/Beta thing turns you or your wife on, great! Use it! But if it makes you feel bad about yourself, you should know that it's not a necessary part of the cuckold dynamic. +Racism: +Cuckolds and their wives are probably not more racist than average, but the culture we live in is racist, and like I said before, we accept the values and ideologies of our culture without even knowing that we are doing it. This might explain why so much cuckold pornography involves a black man fucking a white wife, and why so many cucks have this specific fantasy. +And even if cucks and their wives aren't racist, let's face it, most cuckold pornography is. +Look at the terminology associated with this side of cuck life-- +Often the black man who is fucking a wife is referred to as ""a BBC"" (Big Black Cock not British Broadcasting Corporation). This reduces a living, complex person to their genitals. It might be that a big dick is all that the living, complex person is within the context of the cuckold scene, but it's still reductive and potentially offensive. +A black man who fucks the wife of a cuckold is often referred to as a ""Bull."" This is a loaded term. A bull is a strong, masculine animal, but it's also one that is dominated by its keepers/owners/users. It's a beast of burden. Of course comparing a black man to an animal, even in an admiring way, is racist. It harkens back to slavery days when strong black slaves were referred to as 'bucks.' +A married woman who fucks black men is sometimes called a ""Queen of Spades."" Many women in cuckold pornography have a tattoo (temporary or real) of a spade symbol with a Q in it. This is an obvious example of racism, because the word 'spade' is a derogatory term for a black man. +An extreme fetishistic cuckold fantasy is for the cuckold's wife to be impregnated by her ""bull."" Seeing their wife ""black-bred"" is the ultimate form of public humiliation for some cuckolds. Raising kids that are clearly the product of extramarital affairs is a deep and public submission to the will of the wife. But the idea that a black man would impregnate a woman and then disappear from the scene, or allow their child to be raised by someone else, is a racist cliché. +So what's the deal? +The uncharitable view is that the cuckold, if his wife sleeps with a black man, gets to have his cake and eat it too. His wife gets fucked by a stronger, more virile man, but since he is black, he is not a real danger to the marriage. +Of course in reality the wife is just as free to run off with a black man as with any other type of man. But with cuckoldry, we're in the land of weird subconscious drives. The racism of our society does make it less likely that a woman in an established marriage is going to run off with a black man. That racist social pressure provides a (false) sense of security for the cuck. +The more charitable view is that the cuckold is taking the ultimate racist fear --black men coming for our women!-- and eroticizing it. The fear of the black man's sexual prowess is at the heart of a lot of the racist propaganda put out by the klan and their affiliates in media and government. Using this fear to fuel a sexual fetish is a constructive thing to do with it. Much more constructive than, say, letting it determine who you vote for. (Dan Savage made the same point in his column, probably better than me.) +It's important to remember that whatever the reason seeing your wife fucked by a black man turns you on --whether it's a racist reason or not-- the result is that a black man is getting laid. We're not talking about oppression here, so there's no reason for anyone to feel all that bad about it. +And just like the Alpha/Beta thing, if the racial element is what you're into, that's great! Go for it! But it is such a huge part of the way that cuckoldry is represented that it threatens to become part of the definition of what cuckolding is. +If racism in cuck culture is something that makes you question your sexual needs and feel like the whole thing is shameful (because it's racist), then just ignore it. A true cuck would get just as turned on by his wife fucking a Latino, Italian, or even a white guy. +Now let's get down to brass balls. How can you actually do it? How can you become a cuckold? +STEP 1: SUBMIT +You know that thing that you do that your wife hates? Stop doing that. You know that thing that she wants you to do, but it's a pain in the ass and you don't want to? Do it. You want to be a cuckold? When's the last time you did the dishes, or vacuumed, or picked the kids up from school, or made dinner, or did the laundry, or cleaned the garage? +Real-life submission isn't all analingus and dog collars. It's about making your wife happy. You already know how to do that, so get to work. +Start losing some arguments. You and your wife probably bicker about stupid petty nonsense all the time. All couples do that. If you can realize in the moment what's happening, you can put a stop to it. Let her win even if she's wrong. Especially if she's wrong. Every disagreement is an opportunity to submit to your wife. +This can be really difficult because in the course of a relationship these little moments of opposition become so routine that you don't even notice them after awhile. If you slip up, you can always go back later and apologize. ""Hey remember that argument we had yesterday in the car? I'm sorry, you were right. I shouldn't have been so close to the car in front of me."" +Is that so hard? Do you want to be a cuckold, or do you want to be a guy who wins petty arguments with his wife? +Other ways to submit: +Start opening the car door for her --every time. +Stop disagreeing with her, especially in public --you should always have your wife's back. +Buy her presents. Candy, flowers, pastries --they don't have to be expensive. Just let her know you're thinking about her. +Start paying for things she usually pays for. +Start doing chores that she usually does --don't ask, just start doing them. +Offer to do her laundry. +Text her when you're apart and tell her you're thinking of her. Ask if there's anything you can do for her. +Just make your wife's day-to-day life as easy as possible. If you do all this she'll notice. She's going to ask what's going on, which is a perfect time to move to-- +STEP 2: CONFESS (stage 1) +Tell your wife that you have discovered your true nature: you are submissive. +This is a big deal to you, so don't minimize it. Make your confession a big relationship conversation, not a discussion of some kinky little fantasy you've been toying with. This is a significant change: you want you wife to take the leadership role in your marriage. Tell her that just imagining her in that role fulfills you in a way you've never experienced before. +Tell her that doing the dishes and laundry is giving you a sexual charge. +Leave the cuckolding out of it for now, just let her know that you feel strongly that her rightful place is at the head of the family/marriage. Ask her if she'll be the boss from now on. She probably wont give you a firm 'yes' right away, but it's important to get the conversation started. +It's time to ask her some questions. Not, ""hey, would you please force me to eat my own creampies?"" --more like, ""how can I be a better husband to you?"" And whatever she answers, do it. Give her what she wants. +Tell her that if she's ever mad at you, all she has to do is mention the conversation you're having to get whatever it is that she wants. Tell her that from now on she can always have her own way on everything. +Most couples strive for balance in their relationships. Your wife needs to know that you would be happiest in an imbalanced relationship. Tell her that you know it deep down inside. +Tell her you want to be her little bitch. +She's going to be weirded out, but don't get discouraged. If you look at your sexual history, chances are that your submissive streak was there from the beginning. You probably thought you kept it well-hidden, but believe me, women can sense these things. You were probably attracted to your wife because you sensed a hidden dominant side in her, and she was probably attracted to you because she sensed your hidden submissive side. The culture you were both raised in didn't allow either of you to express these urges freely, but it's time to move past that. +You're two grownups in a committed, loving relationship. There's no reason why you and your wife can't have exactly what you both want. +As a side note, you should expect her to start taking your submission for granted over time. ""Oh wow, I can't believe you did the laundry,"" quickly turns into, ""why didn't you do the laundry?"" It's human nature on her part to start to expect all those little submissive things you do, and it's human nature on your part to bristle under that expectation. But your wife taking those things for granted means that you're making progress! It's exactly what you wanted, she's assuming a dominant role over you. Let her know that you like it! +STEP 3: EXPLORE +Your wife might be resistant to the idea of sexually dominating you, but she would probably be open to getting a foot rub. Start there. Only don't do the usual cursory bullshit, take your time. look up videos on how to give awesome foot rubs. Buy a massage how-to book. +When you massage her, let her know that you are getting pleasure out of it too. Thank her afterwards. +Sexually, build on whatever you already do that is submissive. Oral sex is a good place to start. +Lick that pussy with enthusiasm, get in there, suck the clit, lap it like a doggy, tongue-fuck her, use your fingers while you're doing it. And put in some time! Don't be afraid to lick her asshole either. Once she's turned on she probably wont mind if a few stray licks go across her rosebud. Gauge her reaction. If she's into it, go all in! Getting your tongue all the way up your wife's asshole is a good way to show her you're serious about the whole 'I'm submissive' thing. +And just like with rubbing her feet, thank her afterward. Let her know that you appreciate the special treat she's giving you. +You know how you usually cum too quick? Well it's time to do something about that. Tell your wife that she's now in control of when you cum. This is not necessarily even submissive, it's just a practical way to maximize both of your pleasure. Chances are, she'll get a kick out of telling you when you're allowed to cum. +And if you slip up and cum without your wife's permission, you should apologize and be ready to accept any punishment she deems appropriate. +STEP 4: CONFESS (stage 2) +After you've submitted to your wife, confessed about your submissive nature, and explored this dynamic, you've laid the groundwork for the ultimate confession: You want to be her cuckold. +This is the hardest step to take, but it's important that you take it now because it might take a long time, like a year or more, before anything really happens. If you truly want to be a cuckold, this step is crucial. +But how? You can't just say ""I want you to fuck other guys"" out of the blue. +Here are some realistic, practical ways to broach the subject. +SCENARIO 1 +Your wife says, ""If you ever cheated on me, I'd slip rat poison into your morning coffee"" or ""If you ever cheated on me, I'd light your car on fire like in that music video."" Or something like that. +You reply, ""Do you know what I would do if you cheated on me? Nothing. I'd forgive you. I know it's weird but the idea of you cheating on me actually kind of turns me on. I'm pretty fucked up huh?"" +The answer is no, you're not, but it doesn't hurt to frame it that way if you're nervous. Be careful that she doesn't think you're saying all this because you want to cheat on her. Make sure that she understands that it's connected to that earlier conversation about you being her submissive little bitch-boy. +SCENARIO 2 +At breakfast one morning you say, ""I woke up so turned on this morning. I had a really intense sex dream... It was about you."" She'll naturally be curious and ask for details, so you continue, ""I dreamt I got home from work and you were in the bedroom fucking [insert the name of an acquaintance she thinks is hot here]. You saw me come in and you just laughed at me and kept fucking him."" +Inevitably she'll ask, ""weren't you mad?"" +And you say, ""I guess I should've been, but I was too turned on. It was one of the most erotic situations I've ever experienced. I just watched you guys go at it... It was almost a wet dream."" +The problem with this scenario is that it's a lie. But in the scheme of things, lying about a dream isn't that bad, especially if it leads to a more honest conversation about your sexual needs. You can always confess that it was a lie later. +SCENARIO 3 +Driving home from a party, you say, ""it looked like you were flirting with Jason tonight."" +""What? Don't be silly! We were just talking!"" +""I know but I was having all these weird feelings. I knew you weren't really flirting with him, but the idea that it could be construed that way --that you'd flirt with another man right in front of me... I don't know..."" +""Oh come on! We were just talking, you can't be mad."" +""I'm not. Really... I have no idea why, and I don't even know if I should tell you this, but it turned me on."" +This is the classic 'hey, I'm just as perplexed by my crazy brain as you are' strategy. It's not 100% honest, but you've probably been confused about your desire to be cuckolded in the past. You're just fudging the timeline so you can act out your confusion in front of your wife. +SCENARIO 4 +You say, ""remember that time you had to go to Denver for that conference?"" (it could be any time that she had ample opportunity to cheat on you if she'd wanted to) ""I have to confess something to you about that weekend."" +Her alarm bells will be going off like crazy. You continue, ""I kept thinking you were cheating on me the whole time you were gone. I was obsessed with it. Every time you called I was listening for background noise. I was checking your friends' social media feeds every few minutes to see if I could catch you in the background of a picture talking to another man."" +She'll say, ""oh god, that's silly! You know I wouldn't do that."" +""That's what I need to confess... I must've jacked off like 15 times over that weekend. I think I was hoping to catch you fucking around. I wanted you to be cheating on me. The thought of you doing that to me is such a huge turn on. I'm really sorry honey but I can't help it. Are you mad?"" +This is a bit manipulative, but again, you're just trying to open up a dialogue about your sexual needs. +SCENARIO 5 +You ask, ""do you ever talk to your girlfriends about your past sexual experiences?"" +She'll probably answer, ""no"" or ""yeah occasionally. Why?"" +""I read an article about how most women are ashamed of their sexual history and will refuse to talk about it with their husbands. I was just wondering if you ladies talked about that stuff amongst yourselves."" +She will most likely deny that she feels any shame about her sexual history. You argue that she obviously does, because she's never told you anything about it. Accepting the challenge, she'll say, ""fine. What do you want to know?"" +Ask her to tell you about something she did that turned her on but maybe she felt bad about afterwards. Ask her for her sluttiest moment. +The point of this scenario is to get her talking freely about her sexual history. If you are successful and she tells you about some sexually deviant escapade from college, be sure to let her know that it turns you on! Discussing other people during sex can be a road to cuckoldville. +STEP 5: WAIT AND REITERATE +Now her wheels are turning. She's not going to admit right away that she's into it. She probably won't even admit that she's considering it. And maybe she's not... At least not right now. If she's interested, she will probably hide her interest from you at first. Give her time to process this new information. +If she's never heard of cuckolding as a male-driven fetish, she might even think it's a trap --a way for you to get a 'free pass' to cheat on her. Or maybe she'll think you've already cheated on her and you want her to sleep with someone else to lessen your guilt. Make sure she understands that the cuckold fantasy is part of your desire to be sexually submissive to her. +It is important to reiterate that you want her to take complete control over you and every aspect of your relationship/marriage. Tell her that the more she assumes a dominant role over you, as your master, the more it turns you on. +Let her know that cuckolding you would be the ultimate expression of the new dynamic in your relationship. Tell her that thinking of her fucking another man with your full knowledge and support fulfills a deep need within your psyche. +You should take every opportunity she gives you to talk about your cuckold fantasies. The key part of this advise is to take the opportunities SHE GIVES YOU. You shouldn't be bringing it up all the time or trying to turn every sexual encounter with her into a cuckold scene. She'll get annoyed and associate your fantasy with NOT getting what she wants, which is the opposite of a cuckold relationship. +So wait for her to bring it up again, or at least wait for her to give you an opening to bring it up. +One way to do this is to just answer her truthfully when she asks you a question. ""What did you do this afternoon?"" +""I went to the bank, put some gas in the car, then came home and jacked off."" +""What brought that on?"" +""I was reading a really sexy cuckold story on Literotica."" +She might get annoyed, but you can't be blamed for bringing it up if she asked the question. +If you follow these steps, you're still going to have to wait. Be patient. It's a lot to process, but she'll eventually assimilate the new information you've given her. Whether she acts on it or not, your wife will now know the truth: SHE'S FREE. That will be in the back of her mind and her feelings about it will change with her mood, her self-image, and whether or not mercury is in retrograde. +She'll probably bring it up in weird little ways when you least expect it. Be ready. It might seem like she's making fun of you, but she's probably just testing the waters. +And remember: YOUR WIFE WANTS TO CHEAT ON YOU. She does. The main obstacle to it actually happening are fear, shame, and miscommunication. You have to create a relationship that is brave, proud, and has open and honest lines of communication. +Stop being a little pussy-assed bitch and tell your wife what you want. She wants it too, and together, you can both freely explore your desires with love and passion." +795,Some Thoughts On Marshaling,Joseki Ko,How To,2004-05-12,2004-05-12,2022-01-04 08:38:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/some-thoughts-on-marshaling,How to be a good fighting Marshal.,"['Action', 'Asked Questions', 'Fighter', 'Good', 'Heavy Steel', 'Marshal']",2.0,"Author's note. I play in a live action medieval recreation game. We fence, and fight with heavy steel. This was written to help people learn to marshal. ************************************************* + Some thoughts on Marshaling +It’s easy to recognize a great Marshal, why is it so hard to imitate one.. +Like other sports, our rules are constantly changing. The speed of actions, the method of hitting, checking power, and the behavior of our combatants have been evolving through the years. It is all part of a larger societal picture… The problems of everyday life are reflected in our erich’s. As expected, the marshals of our sport have been called upon to see these new variations with the added twist of a plethora of restrictions that seem to change every month. +The Artisans have a problem with the fighters, the fighters have a problem with the marshals, the Earl Marshal has a problem with the behavior of fighters, and everybody has a problem with tailoring. The toughest tasks facing Marshals are; 1) The ability to see the actions accurately, and the courage to say what they saw. 2) The ability to see infractions within the context of fighting and to administer penalties without being tyrannical. Simplistically, it appears that most marshals just don’t know enough about the game itself., and that they are easily distracted by what’s going on around the erich’s. Rather than focusing on the actions of the participants. And on the flip side it seems that fighters are consumed with the vision of victory and scoring the touch. Rather than interacting with other humans. One of the real difficulties with marshaling is that every set of actions is brand new. When any two fighters step into the erich’s they will influence each others movements making new variations on old actions. +We only do on the job training, and in fact we carry no guidelines on how to become a Marshal. So a potential Marshal stands beside a current Marshal and is asked to describe the actions and who scored the point. We have never asked the question have you read the codicils and asked questions about the parts you don’t understand. We do mention that the entire field is your responsibility. So you have to watch the crowd around the ropes as well as the actions in the erich’s. All in all it’s a tough job. The first time you judge a knight’s list is a unique experience in itself especially at heavy steel. It is really possible to see a blow land and score a hit that neither fighter notices. Usually because it’s not hard enough and nobody noticed under all that armor. Also seeing a blade land flat and both fighters take it as a kill makes it very hard to hold your tongue. +Here are a few things to think about. Both for you fighters and marshals. 1) What physical actions did you see. 2) What is each fighter trying to accomplish. 3) What actions occurred that may be misconstrued. 4) Is anyone dangerously close to the ropes. 5) Where exactly did the blow land and was it flat. +And a few further topics to be discussed after the round 1) Are some fighter’s actions harder to read than others, and if so why? 2) Can possible volatile emotional situations be foreseen and avoided by good marshaling. 3) Discuss how a marshal can reconstruct actions in a way that allows the fighters the most comprehension. 4) Discuss how a good marshal sets up good safety habits in the erich’s 5) What does a good marshal look at while marshaling, and how is the whole field his responsibility. 6) What qualities do you look for in a marshal? Can these qualities be integrated into your marshaling. +Becoming a good marshal, or a good fighter is a very lengthy process. But good fighters, and marshals are created slowly. Not every one is perfect and mistakes can and are made on both sides of the sword. I’ve had instances where I knew I scored a touch, only to find I’d hit an arm first. LOL and yes I’m still upset at it. And I’ve been on the other side of that argument as well. +Let me share with you something that happened to me along time ago. I was facing Ian during a single elimination tourney. He lunged in and I beat his blade to the side. My riposte came up and scored squarely on his head. The marshals ruled that he scored the touch. He’d used a draw cut on his recovery and I was not in time. I was very upset. I asked a few questions of the marshals and was told I was in the wrong. His Majesty King Matthew was watching the actions and waved me over. I came as any good citizen should and he pulled me close to tell me this. “It doesn’t matter what happened, that point is over. Fight the next point with your sword not the last point with your mouth.” What he meant was not everyone sees the same thing and that it would do me no good to concentrate on being upset about it. I should instead concentrate on what it would take to win the next point” I have found this to be very good advice in my tears here. +So take this to heart, If doing this was easy there would be a lot more of us doing it. " +796,Some Whys and Hows of E-Publishing,sr71plt,How To,2010-09-07,2010-09-07,2022-01-04 08:38:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/some-whys-and-hows-of-e-publishing,Some ideas to consider if you are eyeing e-publishing.,"['Author', 'Erotica', 'Publishing', 'Romance', 'Writing']",4.74,"Those on the following list of authors have something in common: Douglas Adams, Winston Churchill, Lee Child, Carl East, Elizabeth George, Stephen King, Selena Kitt, Stieg Larrson, Carole Lynn, Anne McCaffrey, Brynn Paulin, Oscar Wilde, and P. G. Wodehouse. They are all best-selling authors of e-books. The subset of East, Kitt, Lynn, and Paulin are distinguished from the rest in that they write erotica. Well, there's also Oscar Wilde, I guess. +For more than a decade readers and writers have been hyped by the anticipation and claim of a great wave of e-book sales that was just out there on the horizon. Well, that great wave is crashing on the shore now, and the genres that are benefiting the most from the first wave to land are Romance and erotica. It's not something to be predicted or anticipated or wished for or wished against—it's here. +The British newspaper, _The Guardian_ , reported that Amazon's e-book Christmas-season sales overtook their print sales for the first time in 2009, and in June 2010, Steve Haber, president of Sony's digital reading business division, predicted to the Huffingtonpost that total e-book sales would be overtaking total print book sales within five years. E-book sales subsequently were reported as already having overtaken hardcover sales. +Even a recent _Newsweek_ feature, ""Who Needs a Publisher?"" by Isia Jasiewicz, focuses on—and celebrates—the droves of authors who are bypassing the frustrating and highly iffy process of submitting to mainstream print publishers and going straight to putting their works out on their own, most of them via e-book publishing. And selling the books. The ""and selling the books"" is the shocking change that has swept over the world of publishing. +Many authors these days are also bypassing the self-publishing print world (you can almost hear the screams of angst in the halls of such self-publishing packagers as iUniverse and of LightningSource, their main print-on-demand manufacturer) and are seizing the world of e-publishing. And actually making money doing so. Until very recently, it was right to scoff about ""cigarette money"" in discussing the potential for profits from e-publishing (or POD self- publishing, for that matter), but as thriller author ( _Whiskey Sour_ ) J. A. Konrath was quoted as noting in the _Newsweek_ feature, there are authors who are now paying their mortgages—and more—with their e-book royalties. +It isn't the purpose of this essay to get into the argument of print versus e-book as desirable or preferable to either the reader or the author—especially when now you don't have to make a choice; via Amazon's CreateSpace program you can cheaply put an e-book into print. You can have both worlds. The purpose of this essay is to help get authors of Romance and erotica—the two ""first takeoff"" genres of e-booking—to consider whether e-booking is for them—and, if they think it might be, to help get them on the road to getting it done. + **Why E-Publish?** +The quick and simple (and still true) answer to the question of why e-publish rather than attempt to print publish is that it is quicker, simpler, easier—and, for Romance and erotica, at least—more potentially profitable and enjoys a more larger market in e-books than in print. Beyond that, for many authors it is, realistically, the only option to seeing their work for sale internationally under a book cover. +What is the advantage of e-booking over print submission/why has the ""great wave"" arrived? The computer and electronic reader have progressively moved into the center of people's lives. And this has been goosed along by faltering economies that favor the cost effectiveness, ease, and convenience of electronic shopping over stocking and operating brick and mortar stores. There will always be people who ""just gotta"" stand in the store and feel the book in their hands before buying, but natural attrition is doing a job on that subset and, proportionally, there are increasingly more people who are comfortable with—even preferring—to do their browsing and shopping in electronic stores. In responding to this trend, the electronic and publishing worlds are providing e-reader devices that are getting cheaper and more acceptable to use. And (surprise!) the mainstream publishers are branching out to electronic publishing themselves. +Individual readers and authors grouse about this not happening in their lifetime—and certainly not to them. But if they'll take a look around they'll see that mainstream publishers and best-selling print authors have seen and are melding to the trend—and are riding the e-book wave themselves. Name a best-selling author and/or a major print publisher and then go out and check for yourself what they are doing in the realm of electronic publishing. +For readers, e-book devices are getting easier and more acceptable to use—and cheaper. E-books are also convenient; they are mobile and disposable, easier to acquire, and don't take up the space that print books do. And, as noted already, readers increasingly are growing up adapted to centering their life on electronics. +For authors, it's easier, faster, and cheaper to put out an e-book over a print book (even a self-published print-on-demand book). It's also easier and cheaper and more convenient (and takes up less storage space) to market, sell, and distribute a book via the Internet than through traditional marketing. And because of all this, there is a greater per-unit profit margin at a lower reader cost for an e-book over a print book. On top of this, an e-book doesn't go off the shelf like a print book does. The publishing industry-standard of the shelf life of a print book is two weeks. At some point e-books will probably have to be pushed off distributor's Web sites—but there's no indication how many decades down the line that will have to happen. In the meantime, the e-book is on display across the Internet—on equal footing with mainstream publisher books (did I mention that the number of e-book stores is increasing as well?), whereas most print books are gone (although Internet distributors such as Amazon and B&N are now helping to give print books longer shelf lives than in past centuries). +And for those who simply must have a print book in their hands, Amazon's CreateSpace program makes that option more cheaply available than the prior wave of print-on-demand self-publishing does. And you get the Internet marketing and distribution services to go along with it. +For the author (and the reader) there are creative advantages of e-books over print. There are cost-effective limitations with print books—they can't be too short or too long, or there's little or no hope for them to pay for their production, marketing, and distribution costs. In e-publishing, there are no lower or upper limits to the words in a work. The e-book industry might, in fact, be the savior of the novella—which can't be cost-effectively put into print through mainstream publishing processes unless your name is Steve Martin. Also, although it hasn't been fully exploited yet, e-books can be multimedia in content—and they can be constantly updated, corrected, and evolving. It's actually an exciting publishing realm for author and reader alike. +But why is e-booking especially attractive for writers/readers of Romance and erotica? For erotica writers, it's attractive because the e-book market is bigger and more accessible for Romance, and especially erotica, than the print market is. And it's far easier and cheaper either to find a publisher or to publish it yourself (and, if you are publishing it yourself, you encounter far fewer self-publisher barriers in e-publishing than you do in print publishing). It's attractive to the writer, because it's attractive to the reader, which proves out by the simple fact that readers are buying e-book Romance and erotica hand over fist. And the writers who are profiting from that wave are the ones offering new e-book titles to the buyers. +For the reader, buying e-book Romance and erotica is especially attractive, because e-buying and e-reading are more private than book store buying and print reading. You can easily and privately buy e-books on the Internet, you can more privately read them in public on an e-reader, you can store them more privately in a computer than on a book shelf, and you can more easily and privately dispose of them when you are finished. And they were cheaper to buy to boot, so you can buy and read more of them in comparison to print books. (This is especially attractive to Romance buyers, who are voracious readers.) + **How to Get Your Erotica E-Published?** +In every dimension—time, cost, submission acceptance, marketing, distribution—it's easier to get e-published than published in print. And, luckily for you, if you are writing Romance or erotica, the e-book market for those genres is much, much (much!) larger than the print market is. +First and foremost—and possibly the hardest for a budding writer to swallow—you need to write something readers want to read. At least if you want a second go at it. If you want to start making money at it, you need to invest the time, effort, and storytelling and presentation talent to play in the market. The e-book market is larger and more forgiving, but even it has standards and preferences (although here, too, e-booking makes niche subject publishing far more possible than print publishing does). +The good news is that you have a development platform right here at Literotica. Write, submit, and seek feedback for works right here on this and at other story sites. As you add to your portfolio, you will develop skills and build confidence—and, if you are or can become a good writer and storyteller—you'll start gathering that all-important fan base that will transfer over to be your buyers/readers in the marketplace. Seek out editors (who, as far as you can determine, know what they're doing) and beta readers. And possibly the best thing you can do is to read stories on the story sites not only to learn from them what to do/what not to do but also to pick out writers who write well and write stories you'd like to be writing. When you identify them, contact them directly to see if they'll read something of yours and give you advice. +Don't worry about giving your ""precious babies"" away for free on free-read story sites—or having them stolen because you laid them out where it's easy to snatch them. Writing is a renewable resource. The more you do of it and the better you get at it, the more inspiration will open to you for new and fresh stories and approaches to old themes. And the more marketable you'll become for profit sharing from your stories. (I use ""sharing"" on purpose. Anyone who helps you get a story published becomes part owner of the success of that story and deserves a piece of the profit as well. Thinking of a story as solely yours stops at the point that you need help from anyone else to get it published.) +When you have works you would like to see covers slapped on and competing in the marketplace, it's time to do a little research. Browse through the listings at such Internet distributors of e-books as Amazon, Fictionwise, All Romance E-books, Smashwords, Bookstrand, etc. and so forth, looking for books similar to yours. Take note of the e-publishers for these books (they are easily found in lists at Fictionwise and All Romance E-books with click throughs to the publishers' home pages) and check out their book lists (for compatibility with your works) and their submission guidelines. You could also check how their books do in the marketplace—where they rank in the distributors' best-selling and highest quality rating lists. +Then prioritize the most desirable e-publishers and start submitting to them, following their posted guidelines. Don't be discouraged by initial rejections. If they point out why they don't wish to publish what you sent, learn from those suggestions and adjust. And move on down the line in submissions. Be comforted in the knowledge that it's much easier to find an e-publisher than a mainstream agent or publisher for a print book. +If you want to ease into the process, try out a coop publisher like eXcessica, which flowed out of the large fund of authors right here on Literotica and that continues to welcome writers from the Literotica pool. +If you wish to publish yourself—and, especially, if you have talents and abilities in setting up files for publication and designing covers—check out the Kindle and CreateSpace services at Amazon and the programs at distributors like Smashwords and All Romance E-books. With talent, skills, and patience you can publish on a near-equal footing with established e-publishers. When shopping on Internet distribution sites, readers rarely look at who the publisher is. They are looking for an evocative cover, an inviting blurb, an engaging excerpt, a cheap buy, and, ultimately a good reading experience. +The cover design is all important—maybe even more so on the Internet than in a brick and mortar book store. Whether you go with a publisher or are publishing yourself, you can find the same cover designs most others use on such photo service Web sites as 123 Royalty Free or Dreamstime. Peruse and dream about what would look great on your book and help bring it to life—and sell it. + **The Bottom Line** +The great wave of e-booking, especially for the Romance and erotica genres, has arrived at last. You can catch the wave if you put forward effort and talent. You can either stubbornly say that you won't be any part of anything but writing for print or reading books in print. OR you can do what best- selling authors and mainstream publishers are doing and broaden your potential readership to the extent possible, playing in all markets that are selling what you write well. +This essay isn't meant to be comprehensive in either arguing why the time for e-booking erotica is now or fully instructing writers on how to break into the market. But, if it's gotten writers to consider the possibilities and how these apply to their own writing goals—and given them some idea how to get started on the path—it's done its job." +797,"So, You Want to be a Writer?",RC_of_Doom,How To,2011-01-21,2011-01-21,2022-01-04 08:38:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/so-you-want-to-be-a-writer,Blink and you're dead.,"['Confessional', 'Couch', 'Fiction', 'Marketing', 'Novels', 'Publishing', 'Selling', 'Sex Scene', 'So', 'Writing', 'You Want To Be A Writer?']",4.68,"So, you want to be a writer? +Maybe not, but keep reading, you might be entertained. +The first rule that many people tell you in creative writing is ""Write what you know."" +I'm going to tell you that this is the last thing you should do. +No one wants to read about your family drama. Do you think that Vince Flynn is actually a terrorist hunter? Or that Bob Kane dressed up as a giant bat? Or that Stephen King is a demonic clown? +Okay, demonic clown is redundant ... +Saying ""write what you know"" is as ridiculous as suggesting that I am either: an athletic mercenary with enough weapons to take Latin America / a soccer- playing Vatican Secret Service agent / or a commando priest. +I would recommend, generally, that you write what you read. Unfortunately, your writing will probably suck at first. Keep writing. It will still suck. Do it again. Repeat until you no longer suck. Trust me, I speak from experience. And from the experience of Timothy Zahn, John Ringo, and several other authors who discovered how to write the hard way --by writing. +That would lead to an obvious follow up: read. No, Vince Flynn is not an assassin, nor am I any of the above. +However, we all do research. +For my novels I read easily a dozen books worth of material. We will not include all of the various and sundry newspaper articles and websites and lectures that I had to go through to collect information on weaponry that I've never held, and tactics I've never had drilled into me, and places I've never been. And we can ignore the fight scenes I had to rewrite after taking 18 months of self defense training. +Third: sure, you can use your own experience. If it's relevant, if it fits, if it's part of a character. If you're writing romantic elements, it might be nice if you've been in love. If you've fired a gun, describe its feel, its weight, the sound it makes when it fires. If you're a colorful personality who made homemade explosives for grammar school science projects, use it. I don't necessarily recommend testing out the Anarchist's Cookbook—merely reading it will suffice. +Experience is good. Relevant experience is better. +People talk to me. In my life, I have known seven rape victims. I once wrote a affidavit for a woman who was the plaything of a sexual sadist from age 8-22. I have dated a bisexual bipolar wiccan nymphomaniac (long story), a bi-Latina Catholic nymphomaniac (even longer story), and I have listened to more people with more kinks than I have ever wanted to learn about. I am a walking confessional and therapy couch rolled into one. +Would I put any of this into a novel? Very little. I have yet to write a graphic sex scene in any book. My only torture sequence involved our villain describing, in one paragraph, what he would be doing over the course of several hours. No details were present in any of them. The closest I have ever come to a sex scene was so vague, someone had to ask me to clarify the details. +Though I do have at least one character who walks into a room, tries to read, and people confess everything in the universe to him ... +Fourth: Don't go into writing unless you need to. +No one with an ounce of sense will go into professional writing unless there was nothing else for them. +I don't mean in terms of education, personal mental / physical / socio- economic limitations, or anything like that. I mean you are compelled to write professionally. You lay in bed in the middle of the night and keep a notebook close at hand so you can write down ideas before you forget them. Or you start writing a simple amusing fact and you suddenly fill the page with an outline for a novel. Writing is your drug. Your addiction. Your neurotic, uncontrollable compulsion. You would go insane otherwise ... Or merely more insane. +Writing is not for the faint of heart. You are essentially playing chicken with your entire life. Even the publish on demand route is a crap-shoot. You may be picked up by someone bigger, you may not be. We hear the stories of those who have published online and have been chosen by Random House. I have trouble doing the math on how many others there are who don't go anywhere. +If you do have the occasion to fall into writing, if you have the compulsion to write every day, no matter what, then here's my last suggestion: Don't stop. If you need to write for a living, then do it. Write in your notebook during a lunch hour, write a page or two each day. Keep writing, and don't stop. Don't turn your back on your goal.

For the little girl that was raised on the cusp of time and learned to make jam, sew and crochet before she could read, it seemed strangely comforting to combine my expertise as a homemaker with my kink. But as much as my masochist loves her pain, my submissive gets off to serving her man. But as I fed Him dinner this past weekend, He pointed out that there was very little actually written about the topic. So in preparation for Valentine's Day, I thought I would share how to treat your man...June Cleaver style. +**1) Plan.** Spend serious time planning your evening; He is worth it after all. What is His favorite food? His drink? What do you wear? Where do you serve Him? What little details are worth the effort? Flowers? Cloth napkins? Then make your list and check it twice. Make sure you have items for both naughty and nice. +**2) Prepare His meal.** I know too many women these days do not know how to cook, but that is no excuse. There are cook books galore. A quick Google search of the word 'recipe' came up with 153,000,000...that's 153 MILLION hits. Heck, these days you can even get video apps for your smart device. So no cheating. No take away. No ready meals. Even if His favorite is something exotic like Thai or Indian, you can find it out there somewhere. +**3) Dress to impress.** Of course, when you watch Leave It to Beaver, June Cleaver is always spotlessly attired in a dress, apron, pearls and heels. That is certainly an option. But if the Beaver is not around for the night, the options become so much more interesting. A corset and apron...no knickers, of course. Or if you are very brave, hold ups, heels, pearls and an apron. Just remember Health & Safety, burning important bits is not the best way to set the mood. +**4) Meet Him at the door with His favorite cocktail in hand.** What better thing to come home to than your woman dressed (or undressed) to please and holding a single malt Scotch? +**5) Pamper Him.** While the roast is finishing up in the oven, what about a massage or a warm bath? We girls are not the only ones that enjoy a relaxing soak. Just make certain to choose oil that does not smell flowery...sandalwood is always a good choice. Pay special attention to the places that hold stress...neck, shoulders, hands and feet. But do not forget the scalp and ears too. As for that bath, you should certainly be the one to undress Him. Show Him exactly how much you care by carefully folding His clothes as you go. Kneeling and looking up with a smile is perfect for this job. Oh, and save the best bits for last, girls. But get very, very naughty with it. Just don't burn dinner in the process. There will be time for THAT later. +**6) Serve Him.** I do not just mean putting a plate on the table either. Begin by taking the time to add the little extras, when I trained as a chef, it was called presentation. Things like a sprig of parsley, rosemary, thyme, basil or whatever is appropriate for the dish. Make certain that any spills have been carefully wiped from the plate. And yes, the proper way to serve His meal is to drop to your knees, legs spread wide apart and head down as you hold the plate in one hand for His approval. +**7) Feed Him.** You heard me right. Do not let it end simply with serving Him. Go beyond that. He is special and deserves that extra touch. Trust me, there is nothing sexier than a man torn between the delights of food or you. Take your time, no rush here. Make each bite count. +**8) Conversation.** This may blow a lot of the myths out of the water, but men actually like intelligence in their women. Back in the 50's women actually went to college primarily to learn how to be proper wives. Current events, His work, sports, whatever, He wants someone to talk to as much as you do. Be conversant. +**9) Be His fantasy.** What dirty, naughty thing has He always wanted to do. Why not give it a try? For this night, stretch yourself...or Him. Nothing is off limits. Sex is meant to be dirty, messy and loud...even 1950's style. +**10) Dessert.** Don't forget dessert. But it is best served naked in bed after the hottest sex of your lives. It has the added advantage of providing a sugar rush that should make round two almost as unforgettable as the first time. And oops...if you spill chocolate sauce or whip cream, well, you just must lick it off yourself. After all, good girls clean up their messes. +**11) Laugh.** I know it flies in the face of convention but there is nothing sexier in the bedroom than laughter. Lying in one another's arms and giggling is an incredibly bonding experience after making love. Life is way too serious, folks. Love should not be. +As for pesky little things like dishes...leave them to soak in the sink. The mess will wait. He won't. This night is about showing Him how very lucky you are to have Him in your life. The thing is...why wait for Valentine's Day? If you are lucky enough to have found that unicorn...a good man, then every fucking day should be a celebration of love." +799,Spitting,Selena_Kitt,How To,2008-12-06,2008-12-06,2022-01-04 08:38:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/spitting,How to use saliva to your best blowjob advantage.,"['Blowjob', 'Blowjob Advice', 'Blowjob How-To', 'Oral Sex', 'Oral Sex How- To', 'Saliva', 'Sex Advice', 'Spit', 'Spitting']",4.08,"Ohhh no, not another essay to stir the debate about whether or not you should spit or swallow his cum after a blowjob! +Actually, no. +I want too talk about spit, as in saliva--and spitt _ing._ +You see, during a blowjob, saliva is your best friend. +This clear, amazing, renewable liquid is your major source of lubrication while you're sucking cock. It's a good thing our mouths just keep making more when there's something in it, isn't there? Heat, wetness and friction are what cocks love, and most men will find it hard to discern which they like better, the slick sheath of a pussy or the hot suck of a mouth. +Saliva helps your mouth mimic the wet warmth of your pussy, but there are lots of fun things you can do with saliva to make things more interesting in the bedroom -- or wherever it is you happen to be sucking cock. *wink* +Are you ready? +Sexy string No, I'm not talking about the thong -- or butt floss, as it were. I'm talking about saliva. There's something incredibly sexy about that long, unbroken string of saliva from the head of his cock to your mouth. Let him see it streeeetch out... break... and then dribble down your chin. Trust me, it's not gross. Even if it feels that way. In the heat of the moment, with your eyes looking up at him, that one deliberate act is going to be so hot he'll have to do everything he can not to come right there on the spot. +Drool It's not just for babies and invalids anymore! Your mouth is going to make a lot of saliva during a blowjob - a lot. Let some of it slide down and wet your chin...even your chest and breasts. Rub his cock over your cheeks so they shine and glisten with your saliva and his precum. His eyes will light up like a little kid on Christmas morning opening the last Wii Toys R Us had in stock. +Spitting Okay, some people find this just too gross for words, I know. But spitting during sex isn't the same as spitting out your car window. Just like real estate, it's location location location! With the right person, in the right context, at the right moment... spitting can be really, incredibly hot. +Now, I'm not talking about hawking a loogie here (that really _is_ gross! And incidentally, that's a fly by night spelling because, sadly, loogie is not officially in the dictionary... but I digress!) I'm talking about using that magical mouth lubricant to your advantage and making a bold, daring move. There's something about that taboo act, something we normally think of as ""nasty"" or ""dirty"" which transforms in the midst of the sex act to something of an outrageous turn-on. +Think I'm kidding? Watch some ""throat job"" porn. Or, hell, just try it yourself on your guy, and watch his reaction. Granted, there are a few guys out there who don't like it -- who will give you the impression that you, someone of the feminine persuasion, should be much too ladylike to make such a gesture. +Of course, these are usually the guys who list, ""walking on the beach at sunset"" as one of their hobbies on Facebook, because they think it's what women really want to hear. But what are the odds he's being honest? Perhaps if men weren't always wondering what it is we women want or like, they'd be able to fill their ""hobbies"" section with the truth and ""Watching NFL Monday night football and women spitting on my cock during a blowjob"" just might make the list! +But if you've got a guy who likes it when you talk like a dirty sailor or enjoys it immensely when you call him Daddy once in a while during sex, I imagine the cock-spitting maneuver is one can you add to your repertoire without too much risk of some sort of negative reaction. +And while it might sound gross, you won't know until you try, right? +So gather your courage... and some of your saliva in your mouth... and spit it onto the head of his cock, working it in with your hand. And then do it again. If you're brave enough to try it, you might be surprised by his groan of appreciation and a tell-tale thickening of his cock in your mouth! +So the bottom line is this: don't be afraid of the spit! It's not time to be ladylike. It's time to let go and get wild and messy. You and your saliva should be BFF when you're giving your man oral pleasure-so don't forget to use and be thankful for those salivary glands!" +800,Squirting for Beginners,CurvyGirl73,How To,2020-10-03,2020-10-03,2022-01-04 08:38:51,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/squirting-for-beginners,"Yes, even YOU can do it!","['Female Masturbation', 'Fingering', 'G-Spot', 'Squirting']",4.71,"_Let it flow, let it flow, don't hold it back anymore_ +Okok, I apologize for the earworm. But, quite frankly, that line really is the main piece of advice on how to squirt. The other one being towels. Layers and layers of towels. Because once you let it flow, there will be a surprisingly large amount of liquid. +But let me start at the beginning and with a disclaimer. I am neither a gynecologist nor an expert on the science of female ejaculation or squirting. I only discovered recently that these are even considered two different things by some. And in general, there are so many discussions and questions about squirting... A few being: +1\. Is it fake? _No_ +2\. Is it just urine? _Certainly not_ +3\. Can only a small handful of us actually do it? _I don't think so - hence this guide_ +4\. If it's not urine, where does the liquid come from? _No idea, and neither do the experts know..._ +What I do know is that it feels great when I do it and that it adds another layer to my orgasms, my sexual relieve and my satisfaction. I think more people need to know how to do it or how to get their partner to do it. So I've decided to write this guide (or maybe it's more of a field report...) to spread the wisdom. +First up, a few questions to my fellow vagina-owners that are interested in learning how to squirt: +1\. Do you ever feel the need to pee when you are aroused? Does your urethra start to tingle when you are approaching orgasm? +2\. But then, when you go to the bathroom directly after sex, not that much urine is actually coming out? +3\. And do you sometimes still feel aroused, even after several orgasms? Not quite getting that complete satisfaction? +If you've answered yes to those questions: Congratulations! Chances are you are already quite close to squirting. +I think one of the reasons why so few of us never realize that we might be able to squirt is because the feeling just before squirting feels very similar to the need to pee. And that is not something we usually want to do during sex. Yes, I know some of you out there would actually welcome that. But that's a different subject matter and I am sure there are various guides on this already. So for the moment I want to focus on those of us who want to contain ourselves to squirting. +Back to the subject: So sometimes, when we get aroused, our urethra starts to tingle. And because most of us are never taught that squirting is even possible and how it works and feels, we tend to suppress that feeling, holding back whatever liquid might come out. Imagine what it would feel like for a teenage boy who does not know that his orgasm involves some liquid being ejected. He will probably think something broke in his penis after his first ejaculation. +Similar for us: accidental squirting might easily be mistaken for accidental peeing. But this is not something we usually like to talk about. So we never learn that it could be part of the process and actively try to avoid it. But now you know. And the next time you feel that tingle, instead of clamping down, just push into it and at the right moment: relax, open up your urethra and let it flow. +Here is the technique that got me liquid results within a few tries: +Get yourself comfortable (yes, I know, what a surprising suggestion...). But actually, no, before you lie down, go to the bathroom and empty your bladder. Just to ease your mind. +Then grab a towel and put it on the bed. Actually, grab several towels. Fold them up multiple times. Add a large one underneath just to be safe. I've leaked through about eight layers of towel on occasion. So be prepared for a lot of liquid. And yes, you might think that it will not happen on your first try anyway, but it might. And who will have to wash those sheets then...? +So now, that you are prepared, with an empty bladder and a wad of towels, get comfortable, for example lying on your back, with those towels underneath your butt. +Now do whatever you usually do to arouse yourself. I have never been able to squirt from vibrators, maybe because they make me orgasm too quickly? Yes, I am a bit impatient, why do you ask...? There are g-spot massagers - vibrators or dildos - out there that might work for you. For squirting, I usually prefer my hands only, but try out whatever feels good for you. +For me, massaging my outer and inner lips, the whole area, then playing with my clit a bit works well. Once I am sufficiently wet, I push some fingers into my vagina. You could start with one, if that feels the most comfortable. Add a second, if you feel like it. Now turn those fingers towards your belly. Chances are, they are already in this position anyway. It is the one that feels the most natural and allows you to massage your clit with the palm of your hand as well. Maybe some of you out there with longer arms that are more flexible than me manage some different positions, but I usually just grab myself and then feel around on the inside for that rough area that is situated just after the entrance on the upper wall of my vagina. +Yes, that is the fabled g-spot. I believe it might be situated in slightly different positions for different vaginas, for some being deeper inside, but in general it should be reachable with your fingers. It does feel noticeable rougher than the rest of the usually smooth vagina wall. And it will get even rougher as you get more turned on. I can feel actual ridges and folds on mine once I am really aroused. +As I mentioned, that area is usually called g-spot. What it also is, is the other side of the clitoris. The little nub that is visible from the outside is just the tip of the clitoral iceberg. The whole organ is much larger and sort of wraps its wings around the vagina. Go and google it, it is fascinating. It can be stimulated from the outside as well as from the inside and that is exactly what we need for squirting. +Now back to the exercise. Keep massaging your g-spot with one or two fingers, add some pressure on your clit from the outside, for example with the palm of your hand or your thumb. Start to put more pressure on your g-spot. Don't stab your fingers in and out of your vagina (fingering should never really be a stabbing action - at least not for me), but curl them up and move them in circles along that g-spot area that by now might feel really rough. +Can you feel your urethra starting to prickle and tingle yet? As I said before, the feeling is similar to having to pee. But trust me - you don't have to. Keep going, don't try to push out liquid just yet. Keep massaging, squeeze your vagina wall and clit between your fingers and your palm. Get yourself ever closer to that orgasm. Then, right when you're about to come, stop trying to hold back, relax your muscles and push into that tingling feeling. +Chances are, you will just have squirted for the first time. The liquid that comes out is not urine. It is clear, warm, is ejected quite forcefully and mine tastes a little metallic and salty. And definitely not urine-y at all. I have managed to squirt several times in a row, usually producing more liquid the more aroused I get and the more intense the orgasms are. So keep going after that first try, if you feel like it. +How do orgasms feel with squirting compared to without? They are certainly a bit different. I think I am able to come more intensely without squirting, maybe because I am holding back and don't let go of that arousal entirely? So part of my arousal stays with me during the whole orgasm and even afterwards. When squirting, the sensations are different, and the orgasm and satisfaction afterwards feel more complete. +I have also managed to squirt without really having an orgasm. Usually when I get too impatient (yes, really...) and try to push into the feeling too quickly. While it still feels nice, my arousal is then usually gone without a climax. So I sometimes give myself a couple of quick orgasms before attempting to squirt, just to get it out of the way. This helps build my arousal and makes me more willing to wait for the exact right moment. +Now, as I said, it took me a few tries (maybe two or three, I don't remember exactly) to get to squirting after I read about this technique on the internet for the first time. It might take longer for you, or you might succeed on your first try. But even if it takes a while, just remember: the process of getting there includes many orgasms, so it could be worse... +And always remember the towels... + **So you want to make your partner squirt:** +What a noble quest! I am sure, you and your partner will have a lot of fun trying this out. So what do you need to do? +First up: read the section above. It is important to know what you are looking for and what it feels like for your partner. Maybe get them to read the article as well? Or at least talk to them about it. Chances are they might know the feeling already, but not realize what it is. And without knowing that this is the beginning of squirting, they might always fight that tingling back instead of encouraging it. +Then the techniques are similar. Get them comfortable, get them aroused. Once they are getting wet, start massaging their g-spot with as many fingers as feel good to them. Don't overdo it on the number of fingers, though. One or two might be much more effective and give you more flexibility and room to circle and push that g-spot. Pay attention to their reactions, ask them what feels good, don't be impatient (not like me...) - it might take some time. +For the stimulation of the clit from the outside you have two main options. You can use your hands as described above, putting some pressure on the clit with your palm, your thumb or with the fingers of your other hands. +Or you can lick the clit while you finger your partner. That would be my preferred option. But beware: This will put you in direct line of the squirting. If you are brave enough, it will certainly be an event for the two of you to remember! +And once more: Please, please, remember the towels!" +801,Squirting...You Can Do It!,dirtyjoe69,How To,2006-07-02,2006-07-02,2022-01-04 08:38:51,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/squirting-you-can-do-it,How you can get your woman to squirt.,"['Fingers', 'Massage', 'Orgasms', 'Soaking', 'Squirting', 'Wet']",4.3,"Squirting...You Can Do It! +In most of my stories I mention how the women cum so hard it shoots out of their pussies. Not unlike a guy shooting ropes. It is all in the technique, and you can get there too. Whether you are a man who wants to see his lady just soak the hell out of the sheets or you're a woman who would like to experience total indescribable bliss. Then you should read on. +A long time ago when the wife and I first started dating, almost fourteen years, we were like any other couple just starting a relationship. We would fuck our brains out every chance we got! The kitchen, the bedroom, the living room it didn't really matter what room or what place, if we got a moment we took it. We thought our sex life was spectacular. Heck one night I remember ejaculating more than seven times. I couldn't begin to tell you how many she had. We loved it all; oral, different positions, tie up games, fun with food, and even ventured into the swinging scene. We would read erotic novels or go on the computer to Literotica to find hot stories then play out the scenes. We had tried just about anything ""normal"" (because normal is relative) two people could do with each other. She would give me mind blowing orgasms with her mouth, cunt, and ass. I would eat her pussy till she couldn't take anymore. Then one day we watched a movie, I can't really recall what one it was but anyway, in this movie it showed a technique for making the woman cum so hard that her cum would actually squirt right out of her pussy. And let me tell ya, the look on the girl's face when she was finished cumming was remarkable. It was a look of pure satisfaction. My wife asked me if I thought we should try the procedure and I said absolutely! +Now that you know how we started with the squirting, and let me tell you it is still a regular occurrence, let me explain how it is done! A pre-step to take before trying this method. MAKE SURE YOUR WOMAN (OR YOURSELF, LADIES) TAKE A LEAK BEFORE YOU START!! YOUR BLADDER MUST BE EMPTY. YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHY LATER ON. +STEP 1: Make sure your woman, (or yourself, ladies) is comfortable. Maybe a little wine, soft music, or perhaps a good erotic massage, it doesn't matter just as long as she (Or yourself, ladies) is completely relaxed. +STEP 2: Do what ever it is you usually do to make your woman (or yourself, ladies)have a nice normal orgasm.(If you have problems giving your woman a regular orgasm just skip right to STEP 4). +STEP 3: Make sure you keep making her feel very comfortable, it is key! +STEP 4: Start licking your woman's clit and slide two fingers deep in her cunt. If your woman has a slightly bigger box then increase the number of fingers being used. +STEP 5: Turn said fingers so that your palm is up facing you. Ladies if you are trying to do this yourself you should have your palm against your pubic bone then bend the wrist so it points away from your body. Almost like you are making a scoop. +STEP 6: Push your fingers toward the ceiling. Ladies you want to turn your wrist like you are trying to start a motorcycle. +STEP 7: Run your fingers along this ""wall"", feel for a small rough area. Believe it or not it kind of feels like a walnut. She (or you) will know the spot immediately. +STEP 8: Keep rubbing, increasing the speed and pressure as you do. Don't rub too hard or +too fast right off the start. Work up to it. +STEP 9: This is probably the most important one. When you do see your woman (or feel yourself) starting to get real excited, they might tell you to (or you might want to) stop because they feel like they are about to pee. Remind them they have no pee in their bladder (if you followed the pre-step!) and tell them to +JUST RELAX and let it GO!!!!! +STEP 10: Take cover because you are about to be showered upon. My wife has squirted over three feet in the air lying on her back!! +So there you have it, ladies and gentlemen, ten steps to oblivion. I forgot to mention one thing. TOWELS, TOWELS, TOWELS!! Or get a second set of sheets ready. And don't worry about doing extra laundry, it is totally worth it. +I can't promise this method will work for you but if you want to squirt and never have before why not give it a shot.

Unfortunately, I've learned the hard way and thought I would pass along the basics of how to keep out of the doghouse, or how to avoid having to build that extra 'doghouse' room out there to make a dog's life easier! Instead, this guide will help show you how to keep your woman purring. +Here puss, puss! +Some have written and declared that men and women are from different planets. How about from entirely different universes? Guys, do you feel like you'll never get the hang of keeping a woman happy? Do you wonder why one day you're the hero and the next day the goat? If so, then this How-To Guide is for you. +The points to be covered include: +1\. Know yourself +2\. Be strong +3\. Fix-it Man +4\. Remember! +5\. Eyes forward! +6\. Seduction is the Whole Day +7\. It's the Little Things +8\. SEX! +Let's begin with the first one. +Know Yourself. +Without going into a dissertation on the matter, be sure to have a basic sense of yourself. Are you comfortable with yourself, what you are about, and your body? You may think you see an Arnold or a Crews in the mirror, but look a little bit harder. Do you honestly like what you see? If you do that's great. If not, then do something about it. The adage that 'confidence is very sexy, don't you think?' is a truism, and only comes with self exploration and acceptance. +Be Strong. +Women may say that they love a sensitive, caring man who yields with courtesy to his woman, but don't you believe it! She wants someone she can lean into and feel some resistance, not some pushover. She does not want someone who lets her run him around like a little puppy. This only makes her think that your place must be in the doghouse after all! You _can_ let her have the remote from time to time, but make sure it stays properly placed on the right arm of _your_ chair. +Fix-it Man. +To be successful, you've got to have some fix-it skills. You know the old saying, 'It's nice to have a man around the house.' Why is that? Well, we are there to kill bugs, take out the garbage, wash the dog, do the heavy lifting, and open jars of pickles. You'll also need to be able to complete the 'honey do' handyman list, like it or not. If you don't have these skills, you need to find a way to get them without destroying your own place first! Go help out a buddy who's in the know, attend demos at your local hardware center, or study up. A good tip is to have a basic set of tools and know how to use them. +Remember! +You must absolutely commit to memory her birthday, your anniversary, her favorite things and the things she hates, and be guided accordingly. When it comes to gifts, remember that jewelry and flowers are two surefire winners for any occasion or no occasion at all. Kitchen appliances and sensible household items? Forget about it! This will get you sent straight to the doghouse; do not pass go, do not collect $200! +Some florists even have a 'man's best friend' (You dog, you!) list where they will list key dates for your woman and email you reminders as her special dates approach, so that you can enjoy being the hero! (""I can't believe you remembered! Oh, honey, those flowers were so gorgeous, how do you do it?"") Play your cards right and you'll be able to stay in your own bed for years to come. +Here puss, puss! +Eyes Forward. +Focus on HER. Let her catch you ogling another woman, especially when you are out together, you'd best get your sleeping bag ready for another stay in the doghouse! You may get away with checking out the jogging babes in the side view mirror, but you must be very surreptitious since this is an autonomic reflex for most guys. Work at this, practice this. Be sure to avoid blurting out ""Hello, Sheila! What a bod!"" This will definitely send you packin' to the doghouse with her claws out. +You can sprinkle a few comments when someone mentions how great a woman looks, and whisper something like, ""Shabby next to you dear."" Of course she knows you are full of shit, but no matter. +Here puss! +Seduction is the Whole Day. +You must try to understand that getting her in the mood starts when she wakes up, and builds throughout the day. If you wait until after she has cooked dinner and cleaned the dishes and approach her with a, ""You want to fool around?"" do not be surprised when she says 'no', even 'Hell no!' and makes a reservation in the doghouse for you. (Spot is getting tired of this crap. Watch out he doesn't start nipping.) +When she asks you if a dress makes her look fat, you must restrain yourself from saying what you really think. So bite your tongue and say, ""Never, precious, _you_ look like a Victoria Secret model in _anything_ you wear!"" She already knows how she looks and has already decided not to wear the thing, but she wants you to think she needs reassurance, when really she's just testing you, big guy! +It's The Little Things. +Acts of service go a long way towards building the mood. Breakfast in bed on the weekend is usually a tried and true winner. Spruce up your skills at how she likes her eggs and bacon. Soft scrambled, over easy (my favorite), fried, sunny side up (use your imagination here). Is she crispy, crunchy or chewy - on the bacon that is? Brew a little hot tea or coffee, maybe pour some juice. (Hand squeezed is probably going too far. She'll think you've done something naughty). Now, avoid making any moves on her. You have done all this just because you love her, not for getting in her pants. +Here puss, puss! +Keep the toilet lid up - most of the time. Leave it down some to let her know you are not a total wimp. Put the toilet paper on the holder when it's out. You can put it on wrong ways from how she likes it to keep from being too thoughtful. What can she say? (Remember, don't act like a puppy!) +SEX! +OK, we've already covered that seduction is the whole day. Each man has his own style, and you've most likely found out by now that having sex involves foreplay. Lots. You can try kisses throughout the day, a caress of her ass and nuzzling the nape of her neck. Necking and kissing is always a good starting point for making love, or fucking if you prefer. Women need lots of build up, lots of touching and caressing. Think of her whole body and her skin as your private playground to explore and discover with varying touches, caresses, nuances and techniques. Once she's purring nicely, encourage her to let her do the same for you. It will be a night to remember. +There are lots of great things to try, but there's a new product out that's great - warming lotion. It can not only be used over the genitals, but the entire body can be rubbed to give the skin a warming sensation. This experience will get her humming if you take your time and work her body over. Start with her breasts and spend time with the entire breast area, rubbing and kneading. You can also use your thumbs to add another sensation as you are caressing the rest of her breast with one of the similar erotic oils and lotions. I'm sure a look at Literotica's Adult Toy page will give you plenty of ideas to try. When she starts working over your cock, you will be hooked my friend! +If you're a hands-on guy, then you probably have a local store tucked away somewhere you can visit to shop and discover the wonders of modern technology and sex toys, gadgets and products. Once again, if you prefer the privacy of online shopping there are many great websites to choose from, including our own Literotica website. One word of caution: as you explore the world of sex toys, less is more if you're just starting out. Maybe the 7 inch Pulsating Genie is a better choice to begin with than the 20 inch Monster 5000 that may just be a dream gone wrong. +So, let's review. You've worked a good bit about accepting yourself and confidence is now drifting through the airways with the pheromones and all. She may not necessarily swoon at your feet, but hey this is good stuff. You are learning to be stronger, and also quicker to finish the 'honey do' list with time to spare to hit the links or the range or whatever. You've been able to stay out of the doghouse more times than not, and Spot is suddenly happy when he greets you without growling. You sleep mostly in your own bed these days. +Here puss, puss! +You've taken my advice and signed up at one of the florist services who alert you in the nick of time so that you haven't missed an anniversary, birthday or other special occasion in some time. Your wife continues to be amazed and bedazzled as flowers and gifts arrive right on time, together with thoughtful cards. She soon jumps your bones when you walk in the door and you seriously begin to think about having a headache - Not! You no longer have to call out to her with - 'Here puss, puss'. You've pretty much kept your eyes forward, except the side view mirror thing she has yet to catch on to. Easy does it, you're far from being home-free. +You've even put on a smallish deck without losing a finger, maybe fixed a faucet or two that doesn't leak (duck tape under the sink - good move!) and you've learned that little things do count. Hey, you can cook up her eggs the way she likes them from time to time without burning the pan and setting off the smoke alarms. Don't laugh, this is real progress. Your lover smiles at you when you're not looking, instead of those frowns and, (god forbid) those sudden tears from out of the blue. +You keep the toilet lid up much of the time and put on a toilet paper roll pretty often and, yep, backwards too. You let her have the remote just as soon as the playoffs are over, and she feels a sense of wonder at her new man. She actually brags about you with her girlfriends when she knows you can overhear her, and slyly you blow her a kiss from your easy chair, watching the sport event of your choice. +You've progressed nicely in the sex toy area and while you are thrilled she has embraced the exciting newness, are beginning to think she wants to turn the Monster 5000 on you. Well, no plan is perfect! +Now you're ready for a stake in a permanent stay out of the doghouse card. Seduction can now begin in earnest with more predictable results. Start out your desire with a little forethought. Instead of the old way, try sprinkling rose petals on the bed and drawing her bath. Walk her through the bedroom and let her gaze in wonder at the petal strewn mattress. +Then announce that you have drawn her bath and you are there to service her. Begin by disrobing her gently and guiding her to the tub that is lit with a few candles. (I'd tell you dozens, but let's get real here guys.) Now, have plenty of body wash handy. As she eases into the water, turn on some cooch music and sit on the edge of the tub dipping warm water onto the wash cloth and gently let the cloth move across her shoulders and neck. +As she begins to relax (Her eyes are rolling into the back of her head) begin describing to her all of the beautiful parts of her body you love: +""I love how your breasts curve so that your nipples peek out of the water."" +""Your skin is as smooth as the head of my cock"" (Hey, nobody's perfect, right?) +""I'm sorry honey, but I can't decide a favorite part of your body, too many choices!"" +Now be sure that you filled the tub part way so there's room for you. Yep, you're going to ease behind her and wrap your legs around her hips. Now scoot up close. (""Is that a water pistol mister sticking up my butt, or are you happy to see me!?"") Now bathe her with your hands. You will take your time and keep you hands warm, moist and soapy. As you bathe her, softly knead her shoulder and neck, then her arms. What a guy, a bath and massage at the same time. Here puss, puss! +Now naturally work over her shoulders and down the front of her breasts, then from the sides and finally from underneath. Let her know how great her boobs feel, how firm they are in your hands. You'll want to knead her breasts since they need to get massaged too! That's it, take your time with each breast, kneading, cleaning, caressing, and stroking them. Now pay special attention to the nipples. If she asks about this, just say that they come cleaner when they're hardened and standing out. You'll need to spend extra time squeezing, stroking, and flicking them. +Don't worry that your cock is now at full mast, hard and thick poking at her ass. If she loves anal sex, well then this is her lucky day! +Now comes the best part. You can more forward with a variety of options. Keep it simple and keep it hot. You can reach around to try and reach her thighs and pussy, but that's probably a stretch. Instead, ease her around to face you so that you both have access to the best parts! No, do not put her hand on your cock! Let your ministrations allow this to be a natural response on her part. Now both of you can pretend to bathe each other while copping feels and getting horny! +Once you've finished, you can have even more erotic fun drying each other off with the large bath sheets you so thoughtfully placed near the tub and had warmed in the dryer earlier. Wrap one around her and cover her in its warmth. Then continue with the warming theme by drying off her body using gentle friction. +Now, lead her to the rose petaled bed and wallow in the silky, whimsical feel of the soft petals as they caress her body. On a side table have the warming lotion and sex toys conveniently located in reach. She's enjoyed candles, mood music, massages, being bathed, erotic water sports, warm towels and rose petals. +By the time you start with the warming lotion she'll be putty in your hands.

They had also moved to Denver from Iowa, but a different town in Iowa from the one we had lived in. Usually we socialized as two couples, but my wife also went shopping with our neighbor Debby. I never really socialized one on one with Dave. +Anyway, one day I was home alone and Debby came out while I was mowing the lawn. I was pretty sweaty, and shirtless. She started the conversation by explaining that she knew how much doctors didn't like being asked medical questions when they were ""off work""... and then she explained that she had a problem that was sort of an emergency, but not really an emergency, and would I PLEASE help her with it. I had determined to stay silent and hear her out, but she stopped there without providing the least little clue as to what it was I was supposed to help with. +Silence for a short time can seem much longer. Finally I said, ""I can't do a heart transplant here, but if you get the heart to use- I will try!"" Haha. Very funny. Also it was interpreted to be an agreement I would help IF I could. Debby continued: +Your wife (not mentioned by name: Jane) told me that you had helped her once when she got a tampon stuck after you had sex with her and she forgot the tampon was there... and eventually it smelled really bad... and I think that is what has happened to me. +I decided to be really humorous. I am pretty sure I would remember if we had sex and I managed to jam your tampon way up in you. +Haha. very funny. you know what I mean. +I could try, but I don't want Dave to think anything is going on, so you need to inform him and get his ""permission"". Better if we wait for him to get home, and he can help- I can teach him how to retrieve stuff from in there. +No. That is no good. He won't be home tonight, and it already stinks so bad I am surprised you can't smell it right now. +Actually I guess I had smelled ""it"", but wasn't sure what ""it"" was- old blood on a tampon can reall smell like dead animal rotting. +OK- but call him and inform him so there is nothing secret, ok? +This was back when cell phones were not common, so we went in the house and she used the phone to call Dave, and I heard her explain that she had a tampon stuck in her and Jim next door had agreed to take it out- but he insisted I call and explain to you. Then she said, ""Yeah, it's no big deal... but it really stinks and I want it OUT."" +Where can we do this, she asked. +Anyplace, but it might be easier for me if we have good light- but I can just try right here first, to see if it's going to be ""easy"" or not. +I sat down on a kitchen chair, Debby standing next to me. +She was wearing shorts, and she dropped them, and stepped out of them. +I suggested she turn a little to her left, and move a chair over so she could put her left foot up on it, and she did that. But she still had her panties on. Wait a minute. I stepped over to the pantry and got some plastic gloves we have- not the thick dishwashing gloves, but much like cheap exam gloves. I also got some paper towels, and as I sat down I mentioned, ""we need the panties off too"". +""Can't you just push them aside?"" +Now I got embarrassed. Of course I could push them aside, the way I would if I were fingering her at a dance. But not the way I examined patients. But apparently she was embarrassed about showing more than she had to- even if she was not so worried about having my fingers in her cunt? She assumed the position with her left foot up on the chair, and pulled the crotch of her panties aside. I realized her pussy was totally shaved, and thought I would make her more comfortable by commenting on what a clean shave it was. +She didn't laugh. I didn't have any lubricant, but had moistened my fingers with some tap water, and I sort of pushed two fingers between her labia, and found my way into her vagina. +She was actually pretty tight on my two fingers, and I tried to not look- but could feel an erection starting when I accidentally did look at her shaved pussy, and her panties pulled aside- and could feel her grip on my fingers. I pushed in and felt something that was not a cervix- but it was hard to get a grip between my two finger tips. I tried several times and had my head close to Debby, my eyes closed and my mind focused on trying to find a way to get a grip on what did seem to be a tampon, but it was soggy and wet- and the stench was really bad once I went in and out a couple of times, cleaning up with the paper towels. +I was about to give up and suggest ""we"" needed some way for me to see what I was doing, and maybe something like a clamp to reach in and GRAB the stuff I could feel. But just then something turned, and I got sort of a grip on it enough to pull it down about half an inch before it slipped out of my grip again. This was not a thumb-finger grip, it was a pickpocket grip between the first and second finger. I started moving a little faster trying to pull it down with each try- and suddenly Debby was coming! I had not been paying attention, and she had not said anything- but every time I pushed hard into her vagina with two fingers, I was moving her cervix and bumping her clitoris. It was not like the stinky tampon was causing her any pain- and she was probably getting into her most fertile days after her last menstrual period ended a few days before. +This would have been ok, except in her excitement Debby started gasping ""harder""... and I cooperated by continuing what I had been doing. She reached down and pushed on her lower abdomen, and suddenly I had enough grip to pull out this bloody stinky HUGE mess of week-old tampon- and it dropped on the kitchen floor. +I heard a noise and looked up to find my wife watching us- I did not know how long, but I instantly hoped the stinky tampon would be enough excuse to explain away the obvious orgasm. +After all, I didn't get any sexual pleasure out of the procedure. And Jane was very understanding- and actually congratulated me on my success, and thanked me for not doing it in ""our bed"". This would not really be a very sexy story if it ended here, with everyone happy. Especially Debby! Free medical treatment AND an orgasm. +But it turned out that Debby had never had an orgasm as good as the one I helped with- and she was very anxious to reciprocate. At least that is what she said when she showed up at our house exactly one week later. She had realized we both have the same Tuesday off in the middle of the week, with everyone else usually out. She was very interested in having me give an encore performance, to finger-fuck her again for however many minutes it took. +When I responded slowly (in case it was a joke?), she said she ""KNEW"" I wanted to. When I asked ""and how do you KNOW I want to?"" She laughed and said, ""I suspected before, but as soon as I felt what you were doing with your thumb, I KNEW."" She was perfectly willing to suck my cock to ""get us going"", she finished me off once she had her giant orgasm. She had me come in her mouth and swallowed, unlike Jane who thinks that is ""dirty"". We realized that every Tuesday was a nice time to perform these acts of sociable friendship weekly, we eventually added in EVERYTHING else, not just cocksucking and fingering. +Turns out that Debby could easily orgasm from almost any kind of stimulation if it lasted longer than a few minutes - but her husband Dave was a premature ejaculator so rarely was in her for more than half a minute! And he had no response to ""help me finish"". +It turns out that Debby had shaved her pussy FOR ME. And once the stink from the tampon was gone, she had a delicious cunt, just amazingly sexy fragrance. She had shaved before asking for my help, because she didn't want me to have to deal with the very abundant pubic hair that she normally had. When she regrew it (for me), she found that my appreciation of her beautiful bush made sex even more sexy. But when she quit shaving around the edges (for me), Dave told her she looked ""terrible"". My normal instinct is to help educate people, and Dave sure could have used some education regarding his wife- but I was having too much fun fucking and licking and using Debby, so I never tried to ""educate"" Dave. Guys like that often are clueless that they are totally damaged sexually- they get off. Good enough! +Debby had no hesitation to do anything, even ""anal"" play (which my wife resolutely refused) so the problems of begging, that I had with Jane, were no more. I am pretty sure she thinks I just ""gave up"". Debby loves different positions too. +I wonder how many couples would be much better off if they could discover ways to share each other in ways that make everyone happier. I doubt Jane and Dave would be happy to know what we are doing, but they are certainly not harmed by it- and we love it- and doesn't that make their lives better also? Ok, I am good at rationalizing. +Oh, when Dave found out ""how easy"" it had been for me to remove the stinky tampon (which was saved in a ziplock bag to show him), he bought me a case of beer. And I accepted and shared it with him. But I can't bring myself to socialize with him more, now that I have a totally sexual relationship with Debby. +Debby and I decided on one day a week, but I have not been able to resist sliding my finger into Debby's cunt whenever the opportunity arises while we are socializing as couples - and she seems to enjoy this as ""foreplay""." +804,Story Tags - Additional Tips,DarkUniverse,How To,2014-07-21,2014-07-21,2022-01-04 08:38:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/story-tags-additional-tips,Don't forget the important tags.,"['Author', 'Codes', 'Descriptions', 'Key Words', 'Search', 'Story Tags', 'Submitting', 'Tags', 'Writer', 'Writing']",4.6,"Dear Writers: +Yes, I agree - there are already How-To-Guides written about Story Tags and they're really great with plenty of examples (advice here -- you should definitely read them in the FAQ section). +So why another one? +There are two important things missing or that have not been highlighted enough, which you should also keep in mind when choosing the tags for your new story. + **1\. Do NOT create new tags if similar ones already exist.** + **2\. Do not OMIT important tags / DEFINE your target audience using the tags.** +Why does it matter? +Because, as an avid reader myself for many months, I can tell you from my own experience what happened more than once & drove me mad: +I've invested a lot of time finding and reading a story that would fit my criteria, my current mood and which was a longer series, if possible. +(Although I like short steamy stories for the same reasons men do. I guess the only difference is that the result of my ""focused reading"" lands on the chair beneath me rather than on the keyboard in front of me.) +Much too often the only result of my avid reading was a frustrated grunt somewhere in the middle of the story (or worse -- a whole series), instead of gratification. +Reason? +Missing & misleading tags. +I'm sure that this is not primarily the writer's intention. If they'd only paid attention to the Story Tags fields while submitting their stories... +How to avoid this? +Let's review my initial recommendations in more detail. +*** + **1\. Do NOT create new tags if similar ones already exist.** +Let's have a look at tags visible on the Story Tags Main page (tags.literotica.com) for one Category +e.g. BDSM +(Not everyone's favorite, but bear with me -- it's just an example and I'm aware that not everyone enjoys the kinky stuff.) +On the right side of the Main page, in the ""Filter by Category"" section, click on the word ""BDSM"". +What do you see now on the left side of your screen? Many similar looking tag names? + 1. ""blindfold"", blindfolded"", ""blindfolds"" + 2. ""dominant female"", ""female dominant"", ""dominatrix"", ""female domination"", ""fdom"", etc. + 3. ""dominant male"", ""male domination"", ""maledom"", ""male dom"", etc. + 4. ""cuffs"", ""handcuffs"" + 5. ""strap on"", ""strap-on"", ""strapon"" +Hm -- looks like all the words in each line have the same meaning, right? YES! +(There are more of these repeating patterns, but five examples should be enough. And it's really annoying especially in the line e), because it's not even three different words, but one, only written in three different ways). +You should consider, when choosing tags for your story, using tags which currently exists and not create a new tag. +Example: +Your story is about a dominant female using handcuffs. +Correct tags: +A combination of any of the tags mentioned in line b) and line d) -- preferably ""female dominant"" and ""handcuffs"" +Wrong tags: +Creating an additional one like ""female dom"" or ""hand cuffs"". +Why? +Creating new story tags on your own or leaving the fields ""Story Tags"" empty during Story Submission can really backfire on you and you might end up with a story, which many people won't find on the Site. +You might not reach the targeted audience if you're submitting your story listed under completely new tags instead of using the already existing, tried and true ones. Many of the readers will be looking for hot stories on the site by just clicking on one of the existing/predefined tags rather than typing some detailed descriptions in the Search field. +And while doing so, they'll most probably click on those words written with nice big letters -- check out the Main page to see the difference in sizes. Therefore in the above mentioned example I'd tend to submit the story under: ""female dominant"" and ""handcuffs"". +*** + **2\. Do not OMIT important tags / DEFINE your target audience using the tags.** +You really have only ten Story tags available when submitting your story -- so use them wisely! +Especially if your story has a lot of different scenarios in it, you should not waste the tags on unimportant details. Focus on the main characters and events. +Example: +Husband and wife meet another couple on a rainy day to celebrate the wife's birthday. There's a lot of action going on between all four of them, because all of them are bisexual. One of the couples is in a D/s relationship and also acts like this during the foursome. Later a few of their friends visit them and join the action, some of them preferring anal, others just want to watch... +The possible scenarios here in our example are almost endless now for tagging your story: m/f, f/f, m/m, mmf, ffm, gangbang, double penetration, domination, orgy, anal, voyeurism, etc. +So if you miss tagging one of these important activities in your story -- I would even have a problem squeezing all the above-mentioned endless possibilities into just ten commonly used tags -- and you would rather waste one of the tags on highlighting that it was a ""rainy day"" or that they celebrated a ""birthday"", then you're simply robbing yourself of the chance to reach a very wide audience. +Hand in hand with the above mentioned -- don't forget to tag what is usually the most important bit for every reader: +Who are the protagonists - heterosexual man/woman, gay man, lesbian woman, bisexual male/female or any other(-worldly) beings? +In other words what kind of sexual activities will be performed in your story. +Sounds like nothing new to the writers on this Site? Isn't it already in those other How-To-Guides? +Yes, it is. Unfortunately, to my great disappointment I've realized, that many people are still writing their stories in blissful ignorance of the primary facts about human sexuality. +Therefore it might be a good idea to print out the following list and keep it somewhere near your computer, or memorize and repeat it often, especially when writing erotic stories: + 1. Heterosexual man: This man loves pussies, not cocks! +So no, it is not okay if in your story this guy suddenly happily offers a blowjob (or even something more) to another guy. + 1. Heterosexual women (speaking for myself now as well): We love cocks, not pussies! +So no, it is not okay when your female protagonist suddenly happily licks another woman's pussy. + 1. Gay man: This guy loves cocks, not pussies! +So no, it is not okay when this guy suddenly happily licks and fucks a woman's pussy. + 1. Lesbian woman: This girl loves pussies, not cocks! +So no, it is not okay when this girl in your story suddenly rides a man's cock. + 1. Bisexual male: This guy loves both cocks and pussies! +So yes -- you can put your character into this category if you want to write erotic scenes for a man including activities with both genders. + 1. Bisexual female: This girl loves both cocks and pussies! +So yes -- you can put your character into this category if you want to write erotic scenes for a woman including activities with both genders. + 1. Other(-worldly) beings: Now we're talking about pure fiction and in this case: +Yes -- you can create this character however you wish and make him/her/it do whatever they wish with both genders, with whatever protrusions or cavities they may have. +Author's note: There are of course other options as well, but let's focus on the most common ones. +Hence, if you intend to write a story where a guy sooner or later has sex with both men and women, you have to clearly state, that he's bisexual and TAG your story with the respective tags. +The same -- and I cannot say this often enough -- is true for women. If you intend to write a story where the girl will sooner or later have sex with both men and women, you have to clearly state, that she's bisexual and TAG your story with the respective tags. +*** +Dear Writers, +Please remember that if you constantly break these simple facts about human sexuality in your stories and do not make your audience aware of that by providing the appropriate tag, you're not creating turn-ONs, but turn-OFFs for many of your readers. +Think about who is your intended audience -- the readers -- and which tags will help them find your story quickly and easily. +Think about who your characters are and what they will do (or have done -- if you've already finished your story by now) in terms of sexual activities. +Think about how long your story will be (or is). -- Are there more chapters? Great! You can tag each one differently and adjust the tags according to the contents of each chapter! +Just don't forget to use all the correct tags -- your readers will be happy and satisfied, able to enjoy your stories completely, in full length and find them easily anytime they want. +Hope this was at least a little bit helpful & Thank you! +*** + _Many thanks to my editor HMauthor for the great help and all suggestions -- much appreciated!_" +805,Story Tags and Searches,wishfulthinking,How To,2005-07-15,2005-07-15,2022-01-04 08:38:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/story-tags-and-searches,Making Literotica work for you.,"['Codes', 'Descriptions', 'Key Words', 'Search', 'Story Tags', 'Submitting', 'Tags', 'Writer']",4.24,"I read this really great story a couple of months ago, but I can't find it now.

When a reader clicks on a tag, it takes him or her to a list of other stories which also have that phrase or word as a tag. What tags you use can determine just how easy it is for interested readers to find your story (or poem – see the end of this piece for Poem Tag suggestions). +For example, suppose your story centers around a virgin girl in college who is caught masturbating by her roommate. This confrontation leads to her first lesbian experience, then to a threesome with her roommate's boyfriend. Possible tags for this story could include: **college coed lesbian first time female masturbation FFM two women one man female virgin threesome bisexual female roommate** +The best tags are ones that are descriptive and specific. ""Female Masturbation"" is a better tag than ""Masturbation"", but ""Female Masturbating By A Tree Near A School"" is a bit long and overly specific. + **What _Not_ to put as Story Tags:** \- **Your author name.** \- **The story's title.** \- **The category in which the story is posted.** \- **Words or phrases that have nothing to do with your story.** If there are no public blowjobs in your story but you use ""public blowjob"" as a tag, you risk receiving low votes and angry comments from readers looking for public blowjobs. \- **Generics like ""sex"", ""man"", or ""woman"".** To get the most readers to your story, your tags should be more specific than the categories – not less so. +Below are examples of story tags that could be used. This is by no means a complete list of all possible tags. Hopefully, these will help you brainstorm tags that will bring hordes of interested readers straight to your story.

I am not even sure how long I will continue. I read many stories by various authors before attempting to tell some of my own experiences._ + _My background experience and training probably greatly influence both my writing style and my judgment of stories written by others. As I say in my writings, I have been in the field of commercial construction management since the mid-'80s. When you are writing contracts, proposals, request for information (RFIs) or request for proposals (RFPs), you must be precise in your wording and descriptions. How long, how tall, what brand; the shape, the color, the style, and so forth; all become very important._ + _The feedback I am getting from readers is as varied as the critique of my management style. In my business, some people will say that I am extremely thorough; and in that I am highly complimented. Some others will observe that same style, then say something like, ""Ask him what time it is and he will tell you how to build a clock."" Obviously that is an exaggeration, but I am still offended by that analogy._ + _One thing to remember about my writings is; If you are wanting me to get quickly into a description of the sexual act without telling just how we got there in the first place, you are reading the wrong author. I do understand that some people are only interested in the sex. I have even abandoned some stories because they were not interesting while they were getting to the good part. Every story is not for every person. You may find it difficult to believe, but I have never been able to sit through an entire showing of ""Gone with the Wind"" while many people are passionate about that movie ""classic.""_ + _I have decided to give a few examples of what influences my story telling. I hope you will find some enjoyment in reading this ""non-erotic"" entry._ +This is my theory on telling a story, listening to a story and judging whether or not that story is correct. +Mark Twain said, ""Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't."" That is not to say all unbelievable stories are true and certainly not that all believable stories are false. However there is an overlap where stories need to be verified in some manner to validate them. +That validation might come in the form of the trustworthiness of the story teller. I know people that I have known closely for several years, some as many as 35 years that would not tell a false story under any circumstances. Some of them might even use themselves as the character in a joke that sounds a little unbelievable, only to reach the punch line and break out laughing. At that time, their real intention is obvious, so explaining is unnecessary. Professional comedians do this all the time. I doubt seriously if all Jeff Foxworthy's stories are actually true and the same can be said for most all people in this field of entertainment. Holding these people accountable for their outrageous stories is as ludicrous as holding a professional actor or actress accountable, because they are not really like the characters they portray. +Validation may also come in the form of detailing the contributing circumstances, like when, where, why and how. The best example I can think of, comes from the movie ""Working Girl."" In this movie ""Tess,"" played by Melanie Griffith was trying to convince Mr. Trask, CEO of Trask Industries that is was HER idea to buy Radio Stations. Her efforts included telling how she was reading one particular portion of a magazine or paper and right across the page was another article that caught her attention and that caused her to look somewhere else, and so on, etc. She finally and methodically mapped out how she went from one step to another step to devise the final plan or proposal. I could go into much more detail about the movie plot, but the result was, it caught Mr. Trask's attention, so he asked ""Katharine,"" played by Sigourney Weaver, how SHE come up the same idea both women claimed as being ""theirs."" She was only able to stutter and say, she just come up with it. Who do you think Mr. Trask believed? Right! +Another form of validation is having your facts straight. After the fallacy of the lyrics was first called to my attention, I always hated the portion of ""Cotton Fields"" by Credence Clearwater Revival (and many other singers) that said ""It was down in Louisiana, just about a mile from Texarkana."" If someone will check the map, it is more like 30 miles from Texarkana to the Louisiana border. I guess finding location names that rhyme in the South where cotton is raised, takes preference over geographic accuracy. Judging by the number of different artist that recorded this Huddie Ledbetter, a.k.a. ""Lead Belly,"" written song during the last 4 decades; accuracy cannot compare to rhyme and rhythm when it comes to the popularity of a song. I do not think the same acceptance exist in storytelling. +Another similar song/movie geographic mistake was ""Smokey & the Bandit."" You remember the song; ""…them boys are thirsty in Atlanta, but there's beer in Texarkana…"" In the movie, as soon as the truck hit Texas, they were in a flat plains area, almost ""desert like""; much like you might see in western Texas, maybe southwest of Abilene or Odessa. Texarkana Texas and Texarkana Arkansas are both surrounded by hills and pine tree forest, not plains and barren waste. +I have used three different forms of entertainment here to help illustrate some of my personal beliefs and observations concerning communicating a story or an event. That seems to be part of the confusion between my form of storytelling and that of other people. Do you want the story to be entertaining? Or do you want it to be factual? Personally, I would prefer it to be both! +I have read stories saying something like, ""We were driving across the US from LA to Florida. We spent the first night in Tucson, the second night in Amarillo and the third night in Mobile."" I know instantly the story is not true. How did they get from Tucson, Arizona on Interstate-10 to Amarillo, Texas on Interstate-40 and then back to Mobile, Alabama on I-10? I have made some pretty major driving mistakes, but if you make one that big, please tell me how and why you did it; tell me how and when you discovered it and tell me how and when you corrected it. +Comparing two stories; one that is mostly based on facts or truths and then embellished by someone for entertainment purposes and another that is 100% factual, is like comparing a movie with a documentary. Both of these types have their purpose, and preference to one does not destroy the value of the other. My stories seem to lean more toward the documentary. Hopefully the reader or listener will find some entertainment while reading, but I refuse to sacrifice facts to gain that amusement value. +I truly believe that the very best advice I ever received was when I was about 18 or 19 years old. A casual friend and I were together at a local car race track. We did not go there together, but somehow ended up together as we were trying to pick up 2 girls that had come together. In trying to impress these girls, I made a statement concerning running the track on foot as opposed to running it in an automobile. I mentioned I had run ""track"" in high school and then asked a question that exposed my lack of understanding for what I had just claimed. This other guy looked at me and called me by my name before continuing by saying, **_""--- if you are going lye, at least know what you are lying about!""_** So many times since then, I have heard someone tell a story trying to bring attention to themselves, only to destroy the authentication of the story by using inaccurate statements. I almost always remember this advice from so many years ago. +One of the best examples of this involves a bar room tall tale, that was told for the truth and not as part of a joke. I was working in a small southern town for several months. My standard hang-out in that town was the bar area, in a well-known nationwide chain restaurant. It was one of the town's most popular happy hour locations and there was almost a ""Cheers"" type crowd. Not exactly the same people every day as at Cheers, but if you went several days in a row, you would see many of the same people, multiple times. I was actually dating a lady who worked as one of the bartenders there; so sometimes I would go in at lunch or mid-afternoon when the crowd was sparse. +One of those afternoons, I sat around the corner from a guy I had seen maybe 3 or 4 times previous. At some point, maybe that same day I learned his name was Jimmy. He was always talking loud, mostly on his cell phone discussing his business which seemed to be some sort of specialized painting. The bartender I dated was pouring a simple drink using ""Jack Daniel's"" whiskey. +That prompted Jimmy to tell a story that seemed to grow as it progressed. He said a friend of his had bought ""one of those wooden Jack Daniel's whiskey barrels""--- and when he got it home it had ""about 15 gallons of whiskey left in it""--- and it turned out to be ""that Gentleman Jack."" He went on to say, ""And we really did party until all that was gone!"" +Now Jimmy didn't say exactly where his friend had been located when he bought the barrel, but at the time of his story, we were situated several hundred miles from Lynchburg, Tennessee. The only reason I mention location is; the further away from the distillery the barrel got, the more unbelievable the story got. I never said anything to Jimmy, but in that single story, he destroyed 100% of his credibility with me. +A couple of days later I was talking to the girlfriend/bartender and asked her what she knew about ""Jimmy?"" +She said he came in pretty regularly and he seemed like a nice enough guy. +I asked her what she thought about his ""Jack Daniels barrel story?"" +She said it was interesting. +I asked her if she believed the story. +She said she had no reason not to. +Because she and I knew each other much better than either of us knew Jimmy and also because we had shared numerous philosophical conversations, I told her why I did not believe his story. I started by saying, ""Well I have taken time to research a couple of the smaller details of his story, to confirm what I remembered to be exactly correct."" +I said, ""First of all, I spent a lot of time in Nashville and middle Tennessee from 1986 until 1995. I visited the Jack Daniel's distillery 5 times from 1987 through 1993. The first time I went, I was alone on a Sunday afternoon and I was so impressed, I went back 4 times, taking 4 different friends with me."" +This is what I see wrong with his story. + 1. The regulating authority for distilleries in the United States is the ""Internal Revenue Service"" and they have a fully staffed office on the grounds of the distillery that monitors every single drop of alcohol produced, packaged and shipped. So the chances of a single ounce of whiskey leaving there, in the barrel are so remote; well, that alone makes the story unbelievable. 2. A 53 gallon white oak wood barrel like they use at Jack Daniels weighs approximately 125 pounds. Depending on how accurate his estimate of ""about 15 gallons"" was and depending upon the actual alcohol content of the whiskey left in the barrel, the whiskey alone would weigh something like 105 to 125 pounds. Don't you think at least someone would notice this barrel weighing approximately twice what it was suppose to? 3. 15 gallon of any liquid inside a 53 gallon barrel, shaped like a wooden whiskey barrel would cause quite a ""sloshing"" effect every time it was moved. Don't you think at least someone would have noticed this odd movement and sound? 4. The whiskey in the aging barrel has not been diluted to the exact alcohol percentage (or proof) as we are accustomed to in commercially available liquor. It has a much higher alcohol content (actually about 1 ½ times, greater), so it would probably be very strong and even bitter to the casual whiskey drinker? 5. The only difference between ""Gentleman Jack"" and ""Black Label"" is that Gentleman Jack is charcoal filtered twice. Once before aging and once after aging. The only time the whiskey is inside the wooden barrels, is during the aging process. So if the 15 gallons of whiskey was still in the barrel, it could not have been filtered twice, so it could not have been ""Gentleman Jack!"" +Furthermore, according to most experts, the second filtering is what makes Gentleman Jack so much smoother than other whiskies. Therefore mistaking (or confusing) unfiltered, full strength and ungraded Jack Daniels whiskey directly from the aging barrel, with bottled Gentleman Jack; would be akin to confusing lemon juice concentrate with lemonade. +I went on to say, that with his story, Jimmy established with me just what kind of person he really was and from that time forward, I would question (in my mind) everything he said or did. +I truly believe a person's integrity and their credibility are two of the most important and desirable qualities they can possess. I am sure you can recall an example where you were told a tale, that for some factual reason; it just could not be true. What did you think of the storyteller after that? I have never understood why a person would jeopardize their entire integrity and credibility for 5 minutes of perceived glory. You may disagree in this, but if Jimmy would lie to me and every other person around us that day, just for the sake of being the center of attention for a few minutes, would you want to enter into a business deal with him? +I will interject here that most people, me included, will slip up when recalling the facts. This is especially true with dates and sequences of events. When I was much younger, I could not understand older people getting dates mixed up by one or even two decades. My parents or their friends might be telling about something that happened years previous and say it occurred in '56, when I had picked up on some detail making that impossible. I might question how that could have happened when they said it did, and they would say; ""Did I say '56? Oh, I meant '36."" +As I have gotten older, and both seen and experienced more different numbers in that decade column, I find that simple mistake easier to understand and accept. I usually go in the other direction though. I will start to tell about something that really happened in 2004 and before I realize it, I have said '84. +I guess there is an argument asking; ""If you can make a mistake about dates, why can't you make a mistake recalling other facts?"" My counterargument would be, ""It is not the mistakes you make; it is your _INTENT_ in recalling and telling the facts."" Comparing mistakes like; saying '56 when you mean '36, or saying East when you mean West, or saying August when you really mean October, or saying Labor Day when you mean Memorial Day; cannot be categorized along with the ""Jack Daniels whiskey barrel story."" Jimmy knew he was fabricating that story as he went along that day. He was simply trying to impress someone. +Another thing I notice and hate about this confusing of facts, is when you can't remember who (or the name of who), you are talking about. I have read stories that may start out talking about Sara and before long they are calling her Sarah. I know they are pronounced the same, but if you are going to tell about having sex with her, please remember how to spell her name. I have even seen cases when the name started out as Sara and then shifted to Sally or Sandra or something totally different. Even if you are attempting to change the names, to protect the innocent (or guilty); please remember what you changed it to. +In the business world, there are times when we must ""cut to the chase."" Don't tell about the labor pains, just show the baby. Sometimes in that business world you must almost tell the story backward for some people. First, you must state the ""bottom line"" then say, ""Now, do you want to know how we got there?"" My nature despises that type of action. If time allows, I want to know how we reached the final conclusion. I guess I could try moving the sex action to the beginning of the story and then say something like; ""If you want to know why we were there at that particular time and in that particular state of mind, you may want to continue reading."" I could go on to warn the reader that there is no more sex in the remainder of the story. I hope you know this was said ""tongue in cheek."" +In my erotic stories, if you want someone to get directly into the sexual act and close as soon as it is complete, you are reading the wrong writer. If you enjoy reading true stories that stand the test of comparison and reason, while establishing the basis for why we were at that particular place, at that particular moment, then ""welcome aboard."" +Feedback is welcome and encouraged. I don't expect everyone to agree with everything I say. That would be a boring world. My biggest request is that you let my thoughts provoke some thoughts of your own. +Thanks +Build_it_write" +808,"Strip Poker, Reimagined",lionshell,How To,2007-08-06,2007-08-06,2022-01-04 08:39:00,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/strip-poker-reimagined,It’s more fun when it’s more than getting naked.,"['Making Sex Fun', 'Reimagined', 'Strip Poker']",3.83,"Strip poker is a classic game, and for good reason. It can be a slightly risqué party game (try playing a round of old-fashioned Spin the Bottle after every winning hand) or the perfect way to set up a long night of affection between, or among, consenting adults. Watching someone else take off a piece of clothing every few minutes can be a great tension-builder, especially when you have to earn it. House rule: even if you're missing the most clothes when it happens, you automatically win if the other player(s) jumps your bones before you're fully naked. +The problem with strip poker is that it's rarely played as poker should be; when the only question is who loses a piece of clothing after each hand, most of the poker dynamic is lost. If all the choice you have is which cards to exchange (and whether you actually want to win), there's no raising, no folding, no reading your opponents. Even if you don't actually care for the game of poker, losing clothes after every single hand will get people naked too quickly to build any kind of tension, and it feels anticlimactic when someone finally wins. +The solution is to play real poker, with actual poker chips or money (maybe from a board game); the difference is in how you handle the money. Instead of taking the money home or treating everyone to pizza with it, let the money decide who takes what off, and when. There are plenty of ways to play this kind of game: +When a player gets low on money, you can pay him or her from your own pile to take something off between hands. It's probably best to briefly work out a general idea of how much each article of clothing is worth before you start playing. It's also advisable to raise the price after each piece is lost—after all, is it better to see someone take off her pants or her watch? It also raises the feeling of expectation and accomplishment when you have to win three hands to get enough money to buy someone's shirt off. +If players are paying each other to take off clothes this way, another option you might allow is the charity drive: maybe one person doesn't have enough for a player to take off her bra or his jockey shorts, but if everyone in the game chips in, they could all get the show they want. +Another variation you might like is that the person paying can give a little extra to be allowed to strip the shirt or belt off the loser's body—provided the loser agrees to this proposition. For even more fun, you can sell this privilege at auction; with the right people and the right piece of clothing, this can create bidding wars that will change the course of the entire game and put the ""loser"" ahead of everyone else. +You could also allow haggling on the price of people's clothes, but there can be problems with that. A headhunter with a huge lead could take advantage of someone desperate to stay in the game, and buy him down to his underwear at a dollar for each piece of clothing. On the flipside, a strong negotiator could take three quarters of your money just to take off a vest. This pretty much defeats the purpose of making the game fun for everyone. If you're into power play and domination/humiliation, though, let the free market system run amuck. +A different way to play that keeps anyone from ruling the market too much is to give everyone free money at the beginning of every hand (here's where a set of fake money comes in handy); it's kind of like passing Go in Monopoly. You should get enough money that even someone who just went broke can play the next hand, but probably not much more than that. +If you play this way, the money you spend on other people's clothes should go back to the bank; if it goes to the person getting naked, there will be too much money available before long, and prices will have to skyrocket to keep the game interesting. (You could also save some of the money from going back to the bank by putting it in a pot, which you can win by getting a flush, or by getting down to your last piece of clothing.) +Economics aside, getting free money with every hand will keep even the worst players in the game—and at the table, where you can admire what they've got on display. Of course, the bidding wars and haggling are certainly still options. +But if people are still in the game after losing all of their clothes, what do they still have that's worth paying for? Everything. Even when the clothes are gone, ever-higher amounts of money can be spent for a description of a wild fantasy, a sexy dance, an erotic confession, a kiss (tongue costs extra), a massage, a handjob ... The list is endless, as long as you've got imagination. +Naturally, it will only be a matter of time before you forget all about the cards and just share the spoils of victory—but hey, it's a game. Keep condoms, dental dams and lube on hand, and have fun. +* + _Got another idea?

Elements and Conventions of Storytelling,"['Guide', 'How To', 'Plot', 'Poetry', 'Reader', 'Story Development', 'Story Ideas', 'Writer', 'Writing How To', 'Writing Tips']",4.72,"1 +Introducing myself: +Hi, I'm PanzerFeck. I've been writing for most of my life to varying capacities. Approaching middle age I'm busier with writing than I've ever been with my hand in political writing, blogging on humanist issues and mental health, writing poetry and performing before live audiences. +I'm editing my debut novel for the crime fiction market at the date of writing this and I've also written and edited short stories, theatre plays and doctored indie screenplays. +I want to share, without going into too great a depth, how I go about my writing and how I went from unoriginal, insecure and attention seeking to constantly creative, confident and greatly productive. +It's not all mind over matter. It's a lot of work, depending on how much you want to write, and some handy tips from the media industry should help you to open yourself to greater possibilities. +2 +The Why's, Where's, How's and Who's: +I am a Writer. I've never published a novel or been published in a paper or magazine, or paid for my work, but I am a writer. Not being a novellist doesn't stop us from being what we are. +Writers are people who live by a certain lifestyle, just as dancers club at the weekend and cooks don't have to be chefs by day to know how to make good food. +For some, it's a phase that comes and goes. For others it's a battle they don't know how to quit, but as a writer I apply my skill to everything that interests me and therefore I never run out of things to write about, nor the desire to write about them. +I have fewer hopes and dreams these days, and they're in no rush to become a reality. I was also a pretty good live musician and artist, but one day my writing left all that in the dust. +Sure, I'm not amazing or anything, but it's a lifetime craft, hence the word ""lifestyle."" I won't get better if I deny myself the right to advance like all other good writers have! +The Fellow Writer - I used to be the type of kid that compared himself to everyone else in the room, always worrying that I lacked something that people needed to be interesting and capable human beings. I did. I was young. I hadn't developed or experienced life like my heroes had before me. I needed to learn to be more than a poser. +In everything I've done, I've shied from competition. Not only was I bad at a lot of things, I was awful at competition itself. I was a sore loser and because of that, when I started to get the hang of things, I didn't know how to win... +But I've come to feel that, despite some sore losers who criticise others to feel better about themselves, us writers AREN'T competition. +Think about it. +The marketers, the publishers and the people looking to get publicity from our work are the competitors. Good on you if you find success, but... +Us writers are a fucked up bunch. And therefore, wherever we gather, we're a support group for intellectual fuckups and artists and our nicotine and caffeine addictions. +At Literotica we're a support group for perverts too, which is awesome. +And where would we be without our fellow writers but reading nothing other than our own work, which has no surprises in store?! +We need each other, so we should respect each other. Support your fellow fuckup, dear reader, for heroes cannot be self-proclaimed. +The Audience - on the other hand, i have to be honest, most often they're a blessing and otherwise they can be a pain in the fuckin' ass! +Critics aren't we all?! +No... We're not all critics, though we all have been or will be at some point. But there are critics who verge on Troll-status, whose who speak with brutal honesty and then those who speak with eloquent passion. I might not love them all, but guess which one I love to poke and jab at? +Get used to those trolls. But never take shit from an SJW when you have your right to intelligently defend your right to write. +Demographic - this relates to where in the world and to what people you aim your writing at. This is why movie reboots of classics tend to drop from an R-Rated/18 to a PG or a 12. It gets more views. +Literotica can't work that way for obvious reasons, but there are ways around this. Develop your writing voice and style to reach out across the English language and you'll get yourself a whole bunch of Favourites. +Also, never stop reading and educating yourself and the age of your demographic will become more inclusive of older readers. +We're not necessarily smarter, and I hate the use of the word ""Superior"" with a passion, but us jaded folk thirst for fresh voices. +Your demographic is your target audience! +3 +Let's talk about Text: +What is Text - according to media industry boffins, Text is what the Consumer consumes. You know about consumerism, right? Consumers consume, but it's not as simple as food. +The labels, the brands, the commercials, the actors' dialogue, the message in the picture - it's all TEXT, and we consume it to take away some form of meaning, purpose and satisfaction. +In writing, the Media Text is simplified to purely words, but those words make pictures in our minds. It's not all about the fucking in erotica, it's also about wisdom, life experience, learning and the social and political impacts in between. +This leads to Connotation and Annotation, which we will soon explain, but defined, the Text you put out for your audience to consume leaves them with a lasting impression. +The greater the impression, the more they will be likely to come back for more. And your name will be known! +4 +What's in a Story: +Context - is overtone, overall theme and plot. Through context we can ascertain genre and take away a clear message. Is your story all about the fucking or will you leave a greater impression because you left us a memorable message? +Subtext - is all the little underlying themes and plot devices that pull us in different directions and throw curveballs to keep us guessing as to what might happen next. +Context might not seem so original. It doesn't have to be, but how you choose to craft your story as you go along refines the experience and takes us on a ride out of reality. +See how deep the rabbit hole goes, because at the bottom is the subtext that allows us to let go of the reality and affords you a little suspension of disbelief. +Convention and Bullshit Words - Convention is a good word. Whereas familiarity may breed contempt, Convention takes the best of Pop Culture and references it because somebody did it right and made it original. +Conventions, unfortunately, are mistaken for Cliche when a popular reference is used or recreated badly. However Cliches can be used to great effect when written well. +And if anyone brings up Tropes, tell them to go suck a bag of dicks. Every character serves a purpose. Interactions between characters might not serve readers as critics as they see fit, either, but so long as you don't go in the same direction as every other writer - even if you didn't plagiarise - your writing will be appreciated, even if you feel like you struggle to maintain a competent writing style. +Annotation vs Connotation - speaking of writers and critics, Annotation is the vision that you intent to put across with a specific result in mind. +Every time the likes of Sony or Fox put out a movie trailer for yet another shit movie, I walk away with the feeling like I just witnessed a circle jerk of corporate jazz hands. I see through shit and I'm brutally honest. +That jazz hands thing is my Connotation, because that's what I took from their efforts. +Connotation is the message that the consumer takes away, whether the producer likes it or not. The important thing about this is to learn to be transparent, honest and confident that you have done your best at what you wanted to do with your story. +I won't judge what you wrote about, but I'm not obliged to care either. This is a prime example of why writers need a very thick skin! +5 +Bring for yourself what you mean for others to take away: +On the tail of the subject of Annotation and Connotation, the best way to be honest with your audience is to be honest with yourself. +This isn't about us. This is about YOU. YOU wanted to write this and so it's a form of self-indulgence to write a story. If you can balance that indulgence to include others, though - by taking note of what readers like most - you can get around to writing a very successful series. If you can do that, you've created a whole new world of characters that we give a shit about and can get invested in. +Writing for yourself isn't purely business, but it is work, so why not make it worthwhile for all and celebrate your passion in style. This is how a craft becomes a success! +6 +What's in a Character: +You'll be surprised at how easily a character can be built. Try prepping with a brief profile and give them something to do before the story gets to work on its context. +Emotional Investment - is important for a character. There are no rules to how you get us involved but people have preferences. For a start they don't like to read a shit-tonne of backstory straight off. +Simple and slow release through thoughts, dialogue, situational drama/action and interaction allow us to soak it up in our own time. By the end, you'll know you got it right when people call out for a next chapter. And they'll let you know that you got them right in the feels! +The Fourth Wall - stop reading and look at your hands for a moment. Are you here in this bubble we call reality or is the electrically charged brain in your body signalling in from another world and reporting on the human experience? +How you write your story has the same effect on us and it's profound to read something so real and immersive. The fourth wall gets thinner the more your writing gets closer to reality and especially when it's of an explicit sexual nature, the erogenous zone that is the human brain can almost experience the sensations of a really good story. +Just thought you might like a different POV on the reader's experience. I know I have high standards but they're actually quite easily reachable. +Emotion is Intellect - not only is the brain an erogenous zone, it's the centre of our hormones. Emotion isn't just an experience, it's an intelligence of its own and it can't be fooled with some people. +Harness that fact, embrace your own human experience and use it unashamedly to reach out and touch me. Most of your audience here are women. Women are very emotionally intellectual creatures! +7 +Limits Make Smarter Writers & Characters: +Another movie reference here - how is it that Zack Snyder and M. Night Shyamalan get bigger budgets the worse their movies get? This makes me a bit mentally unstable... +Any artist who ever worked from the bottom of the ladder up did their best with all the limits they wished they didn't have. When they got successful, they got lazy and every song, every movie and every story sounded the same. +Don't go epic, or if you must, do it one chapter at a time and build up to it. Leave yourself deliberate easter eggs for the future of your work so that there's always a way forward. +Otherwise you're building airplanes with concrete. Short stories, or chapters are best fleeting, flirtatious, agile, but tempting to fall into. +If you begin with such weighty, dramatic finality, what's to say your audience won't take cue and just leave as soon as they've started? +Tease them in with ""what ifs..."" not promises! +8 +What's in a Critic: +Heh... heheh... +Happy Slappy Days - every writer has them when they see somebody being a total prick in the comment section. That's entirely up to you. I've indulged on occasion but in the time you're done, you've wasted good opportunity to read or to write. Idiots aren't worth your time. Let them know immediately if you must, but then ignore them and move on. They'll cry themselves out in time. +Mutual Respect - to constructive critics, deconstructive critics and fellow writers; it's a lovely sentiment that you do it eloquently and this only serves to expand your support group and therfore your network. +Constructive Criticism - when somebody tells you what they likes the most and then positively tells you how it might have been an even better experience. I love these critics. They help me to write better. +Deconstructive Criticism - when somebody picks your work apart and compares it to everything they've ever experienced. I do this with movies and mostly for the shit that I see through. If you're not of the same mind, it can be hard to accept such a critic, but they usually don't mean to appear rude. If they school you, at least do some research on their advice before you reject them. But don't worry about getting your feelings hurt. In time all wisdom is just old pain! +9 +Write for Your Self: +As I said previously, honesty is very important and you owe it to yourself first and foremost. Writing is not just a creative process, it's meditative, it's intuitive and there's more to writing than just setting a scene and concluding it. +Yes a lot of readers come to Literotica purely to get off, but are you going to write a list of stories purely for that kind of reader when you could do so much better by yourself? +Concluding on this, the writer not only explores the Self when they apply themselves to fiction, they apply their very DNA, they apply their personality, their experience of the world, their wisdom and their understanding of the world. +When you do this as the years go by, you might not see it, but you'll be going out to experience more, to mature, to explore and to be fulfilled. +Writers who write for the Self write not only for the achievement of good story telling. They write to improve the self, which in turn improves the art of writing over and over. +Very fucking zen, right?! +10 +Finally... Be Yourself: +You don't have to be nice to everyone. You don't have to reply to every comment and if you do, you don't have to be the epitome of Tom Hanks-style genuine, nice, cool and witty. We're not all that, but there's always a welcome seat for a rogue, a scoundrel, a grouch. +Your personality shows through in your work and so long as it's honest, it's relatable to someone. +Without your honesty, that someone might have nothing at all. I was that someone once, but I'd still take Nothing over see-through Fakery. +The younger me, therefore, was always grateful to have reached that one person when others had hundreds of thousands, because we all have to start somewhere and begin as we mean to go on! +Thanks for reading. + +" +810,Submission 101,Tara Cox,How To,2014-01-18,2014-01-18,2022-01-04 08:39:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/submission-101-2,"Rules (thoughts) on playing safely, sanely and consentually.","['Bdsm', 'Consentual', 'Domination', 'Safety', 'Sanely', 'Submission']",4.44,"A few months ago a friend shared his Dom rules with me. I was inspired and set about writing my own sub rules. Being the perfectionist and feeling that perhaps I was being presumptuous given that I had only been in the lifestyle for a few months, I never posted them. +Then He came into my life. We have spent so much time discussing these very issues over the weeks. Out of those conversations, He wrote Dom 101. And I was inspired to take a second look at my sub rules...and with His input tweak them a bit. +One thing I would say is that these rules do not always apply; we break a couple ourselves as a result of our Power Exchange that makes this neither games or playing. Nonetheless, they are a good place to begin. I encourage other subs to consider them, add to them, but begin to give this the serious consideration that it deserves. +So here goes nothing as they say: +1) Know yourself and those limits before you play. Of course, this is an ongoing process and each time you play, each person you play with will teach you something new and miraculous about yourself. But to the best of your ability, know going into any relationship, any scene, what your motivation for play is and what your limits are...for this time and this person. This can be particularly important if you are a true submissive by nature, someone, who like me, craves complete surrender. If that is the case, then submitting to someone who does not share that same level of commitment to the relationship can be disastrous. So before you do anything...know yourself. +2) D/s games are symbiosis at its best. Neither is truly complete without the other. If your relationship is unbalanced with one or the other having more rights or responsibilities then that should be a warning sign. It is of course easy to get confused because power exchange by its nature means that the sub cedes control to the Dom, but that is still her choice, whether for a scene, a day or a lifetime. +3) Safe word when you need to. There is no shame in it. And you will never disappoint a REAL Dom by doing so. This one applies equally to your emotional as well as your physical boundaries. It is alright to protect your heart and mind as much as your physical body. If something, anything, does not feel right, then at the very least...yellow...stop and discuss it before you proceed. +4) Communicate openly, honestly, and clearly to your partner. I go one further, if you are in a relationship with or playing regularly with this partner, be transparent. What's that you ask? Honesty is telling someone the truth about something they ask. Transparency is holding nothing back. It will make some people uncomfortable but it is the building block of a solid relationship...D/s or not. +5) Courtesy is due, trust is earned. Courtesy is due every living creature, sub or Dom. Doms just demand a tad more of it, especially in certain situations. But trust is something that they must earn over time by the way they act towards you and others. Don't give it too quickly or too completely. Make the Dom work for it. +6) Don't confuse love and submission. Submission always comes with strings, boundaries, it must because you are entrusting your physical as well as your emotional well-being to this person. Love on the other hand is a gift, something that you alone are free to give, it comes with no strings. You can submit to someone you do not love and you can love someone you would not submit to. But no matter how much I love you, my submission always has limits. They may be high ones, but they are there. +7) Always ask yourself...would I do that for a vanilla. The answer can be 'no.' A good Dom will push your limits. But by asking this question, it forces you to evaluate if he is pushing too far, too fast, if he deserves the level of trust you are placing in him. +8) Never forget that you have the power to hurt a Dom as much as he can hurt you. You hold their egos (if not their hearts) in your tiny little hands, have care not to squeeze too hard or toss it aside carelessly when you are finished playing with it. Or a REAL Dom anyway. This is because... +9) Doms are still men. With the same failings. They can be selfish sometimes. They can think with their little heads. They can make mistakes. But they also have genuine feelings and needs for this relationship too. Don't make them into gods, they aren't. But also don't ever take a REAL one for granted, they are few and far between. +10) Always take time to process, learn from and grow with each new person and experience. That is after all what I am doing with this list, perhaps we all should write down our sub rules? +11) Never, ever, never forget to have fun. Life is too damned short and we take ourselves and these games too fucking seriously sometimes. If something is not fun, then bloody well don't do it. +12) But always protect yourself...physically and emotionally. Remember you have a life and people who love you outside of these games, you owe them and yourself that much. No matter how much you love someone or how far you allow (yes, allow) him to push you, you were a complete human being before him...and here's the secret you still will be if it does not work out. And if he was one of those elusive unicorns, a REAL Dom, you will be a better, stronger person for the experience. +If you wonder where all the specifics are, things like...don't play while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, always meet someone new in a public place, make sure there is a failsafe in all your play, well they are in there. They are implied in things like know your limits, safe word and trust is earned, not given. +There are so many other beautiful and new things to explore, it is simply a matter of finding the right Dom to test your boundaries, help you grow and become the submissive that you were born to be. Enjoy that roller coaster rides...the highs and the lows. And assume responsibility for all your choices, learn from them." +811,Submission: A Primer,patrickmarwood,How To,2015-02-25,2015-02-25,2022-01-04 08:39:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/submission-a-primer,To those curious to submit. A Master explains.,"['How To', 'Master', 'Submission']",4.49,"Hello- +It seems there is a new fascination with submission in light of the new film and various books. As a Master, I thought I'd help a few of you learn how it actually works. After all, when you think about it, I'm here to help. +Many who already enjoy this deviance are treating the film with disdain; I do not. +As far as I am concerned, if it has got you thinking, so much the better. If you now feel encouraged -and more importantly, empowered- to explore some of these themes, that's excellent. +However, it is imperative that I correct some mistakes. Because if you are truly interested in doing this, do it properly or not at all. Others have their methods. These are mine: +First and foremost, you must be a feminist or I can't accept you. +In case you don't know, all proper subs are feminists. Just not necessarily the political kind. +Most properly submissive girls are independent and defiant women by nature. All of you are bright, often fiercely so. Many highly successful. You have strong opinions about politics and culture and the world around you. You give a damn. +Be honest about what you want to do. You have a strong sexual longing to be controlled and it's confusing. Despite everything else you think of in your life, this has always been the case and it has always turned you on. If asked to explain it, you couldn't. +The problem is that you have lovers who either do not know how take control correctly or who pretend and then screw it up just when you need it most. +You need a teacher. And let the two of us be frank. You crave being given permission to come, hard and often, the way you do when you are alone, imagining this. Equally importantly for you, you need to give pleasure and be rewarded. You covet that attention. +And yet you love the idea of being punished. If you are submissive, you always have, by definition. This thrills you like little else. +Which means submission is the same as exploration. You have a need to learn why. A compulsion. This requires intelligence. Only an intelligent woman would even bother to explore these areas of the female psyche. In other words, an intelligent feminist. Which is the same thing. +But you need a partner. Someone who understands what you need to learn and why. This is not something you can work out on your own. But you need the right kind of guide. +In the way that I work, I do not mix with others. I will not take you to sex clubs or ghastly parties. I will not share photos of you with anyone else. I do not participate in any euphamism involving 'lifestyle'. +If I take you on, the focus is on you. And we will be realistic. Eventually, as in all things in life, you will move on. Think of what we're about to do as the most erotic education of your life. It is going to be. +Some other things: +Please don't waste my time with talk of nipple clamps. +Many people like these kinds of sex toys. I do not. I consider them vulgar. Do not confuse submission with fetish. +If you do get turned on by being bound and gagged, you needn't worry. I will teach you everything you need. Your dark and scary fantasies will all be brought to the surface in time. +I find that a blindfold, riding crop and a glass of wine are all I need when training most girls. +Next, I won't control you 24 hours a day. That is impossible. And I don't want to. I've got things to do. +I will control you for certain periods of time and as I train you the lengths of time will increase. I will also set challenges for you. Dares, if you like. You will need to meet each one to continue. +But when it is our time, I am in complete control of you. No debate. You must understand this before we begin. +You are the kind of woman who revels in having secrets. It thrills you to imagine the people at work who would have heart attacks if they knew what you like. +And you do love walking down the street still feeling the sting of your spanked bottom as the rest of the world passes by oblivious. +Now read carefully. I am going to ask you a question and I want you to take some time considering it. This is your first test. +Who is the person in your life you secretly want to tell? Confessing your submission to this person would humiliate you, no question. But it would also secretly excite you, too. +For many women the answer is a best friend, for some it is a sister. Your answer may be entirely different. But the experience is the same. +Imagine the shock in their eyes when you admit what you like. Watch them stunned as you describe what we do, what you ask me to do to you, willingly. And feel your body become aroused at the thought that this person now carries your secret around with them, too. Whoever it is will go home and think about it. It will be impossible not to. That person will become aroused thinking of you. Imagining you. +Consider who this is in your life. When the time is right I will instruct you to tell them your secret. But not for quite some time. That will come but not until much later. +Nevertheless, for us to begin, you need to tell me who it is and why it both scares and excites you. +Finally, I must tell you about collars because it is essential for what we're about to start. +You will be required to wear a collar, yes. But your collar might be a ribbon. It might be a simple gold band or an antique necklace we find in a dusty old shop. +It violates every one of my principles to consider putting a dog collar around a woman's neck. Yours will very clearly mark you and your body as mine. To do with as I wish. But your collar will be our choice. +It will remain with me at all times. And when it is time for you to submit wholly and entirely to me, you will come to me and beg your Master for permission to wear your collar and be a good girl. +This is how it's done correctly." +812,Submissive Men and Ogling,redbottomed,How To,2013-06-11,2013-06-11,2022-01-04 08:39:06,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/submissive-men-and-ogling,A how-to article for training the submissive male.,"['Dominant Wife', 'Femdom', 'Rules', 'Submissive Husband', 'Submissive Male', 'Training']",,"It is a common and usually acceptable practice for men to enjoy looking at the female form. In today's world filled with tight fitting jeans, short shorts, and uplifting bras seemingly everywhere he looks there is some sexy thing wiggling or jiggling for a man to feast his eyes on for a cheap thrill before the next set of long legs or exposed cleavage comes along. When in groups, males will often point out to each other particularly alluring females and discuss their various attributes with vulgar references to 'tight asses' and 'big knockers' between snickers. Indeed, even among married men, society tends to chuckle at the male weakness for girl watching by citing the phrase, ""It's ok to look but not to touch."" +Things are different for the submissive male. He is subject to the rules imposed on him by his dominant partner, and she very often expects better behavior from her slave than the common practice of mentally sniffing at every behind that comes into view. The dominant woman is often insulted, and even angered, if her underling so much as notices another female, let alone ogles or flirts with her. A submissive male who is owned by such a woman should quickly learn the importance of behaving to her standards in public situations. Basically, he is to accept the fact that there is only one woman in his world, one sexy ass to appreciate, and one all powerful person that he had better strive to please at all times....or else! +It does indeed give the dominant woman great pleasure and satisfaction when her submissive male only has eyes for her. After only the slightest persuasion and training he will learn to keep his eyes mostly lowered and not even notice or acknowledge other females or their body parts. He will never meet their eyes, and when addressed by them will answer respectfully but with no indication of wanting further conversation. Even at restaurants, he will not look at the waitresses, and will defer to you whether or not he speaks to them at all. When walking you can be sure it's your ass he's looking at, and when he's paying for your purchases at the register you can know that his eyes never look above the counter. His behavior will reveal him as a well trained submissive to other women, but his downcast eyes won't see their amusement. It's ok for a slave to amuse other women while he behaves according to your rules, as long as he doesn't feed their egos with hungry eyes. +Training your submissive male to behave well in public is as easy and fun as training him for any other function such as unhesitating obedience, house cleaning, and body worship. it's important to understand that you are expecting him to reject every male instinct and years of programming by the television to no longer notice all the women who are trying so hard to be noticed by men. You have to be prepared to use vigilance and steady pressure to achieve the results you want. First, you want to be very clear in telling him exactly the behavior you expect from him. Then, you want to reinforce his desire to behave that same way. The following is a suggested training regime, but each Wife usually tweaks it to her own style. +The first step is to make him admit his vulgar and beastly pig he is and has always been. It is suggested in this step to bind him helplessly with his piggish ass exposed and his worthless balls and tender nipples unprotected and waiting for your attention. Tenderly caress him and convince him to confess how he looks at other women and what he thinks about, and who. Make him bare his entire dirty perverted man soul to you. It's important to not get angry during this first interrogation phase. You need to remember that he is a male that thinks with a different head than you, and that is precisely why he needs your superior feminine intervention to cure his disease. Once you are satisfied that he has confessed all, it is time to show him how much pain his perverted ogling causes you. Make him talk about asses while you whip his purple. Make him talk about boobs while you twist his red. Make him cry and beg for you to make him a better man. When you're finally convinced he really means wants to learn behave better, it's time to move on to the next step. +Now is the time to tell him how you expect his behavior to change. He is to keep his eyes to himself. He is not to look at or even notice other women. He is never to look them in the eye. He is not to speak to them unless first spoken to and then he is to answer politely. You will tell him how to behave with family if that is different than with strangers. Then, make sure he understands that if he ever breaks any of these rules you will punish him on the spot: With a slap, a nipple twist, or a scolding. His humiliation is none of your concern. If humiliation helps him learn, so much the better. Soon, this will become second nature to him and you won't ever have to worry about him behaving piggishly again. +The hard work is done. Now you can take him out and observe how well he learned his lessons. You can be sure that there will be the occasional slip-up that requires your attention, but you'll be pleased and amazed at how rare those slip-ups will be. All that will be left to do is to enjoy his obedience to your commands, his increased attention towards you, and the compliments from all the women that notice how well-behaved your man is. +One final thing to remember is that even though your slave is held to the highest standard of behavior, you are not. You are free to look at whoever and whatever you want to. You can admire handsome men, their muscles and their big bulges, and you can even point them out to your slave so he can admire them too. Occasionally, you might even enjoy teasing him about the big tits or the ass cheeks that are peeking out of the jean shorts that are walking by that he can't see. You can do what you want, and he better do what you want. That's the difference between being Dominant and submissive. It's good to be you and it sucks to be him....oh well." +813,Submitting Literotica for Beginners,s53mith,How To,2007-05-22,2007-05-22,2022-01-04 08:39:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/submitting-literotica-for-beginners,"How to get Italics, Bold, and Underline without a .doc file.","['Submit', 'Writing How To']",4.67,"When I first went to submit an article I was baffled by how to actually do it. I guess like most authors, I had been a long time reader of stories on this site and posted comments before I submitted a story. The one thing I did when I made comments was to type into Microsoft word, and copy and paste it into literotica. I did this to beat the spelling Nazis that only seem to comment when an author has one or two misspellings. The one thing that I noticed was that a lot of the stories had _italics_ , **bold** , and underline in the context. But when I first noticed where you could submit, I experimented and couldn't figure out how to get it to work by copy and paste. Even when I made comments hitting enter between paragraphs didn't even show up. I was left wondering about getting all the different formatting to show up. +When you first go to submit a story on Literotica, there are two options to choose from. +1\. Write directly into the space provided. (I would suggest not doing this so you can save what you are working on if you do not finish as well as spell check.), or +2\. Copy and paste what you write directly into the space provided, or +3\. Upload a file to load. +Like I said before, when I first tried to copy and paste I would loose all my _italics_ , **bold** , and underline. So I typed my stories into Microsoft Word and uploaded the document onto the site, except I couldn't preview the story like you could if you copy and pasted and I was worried the first time that something would go wrong, or something would not show up correctly. When it was finally posted to the site all the formatting was included and looked just how I wanted it to. +If you are anything like me, after you submit a story you are checking Literotica every day, every chance you get to see if your story has been posted yet or how it is doing, and every time you see it isn't posted you loose a little bit of your soul. Okay, maybe not your soul, but you are a little disappointed. +On the submissions page there is a warning about submitting a file instead of copying and pasting. ""it may take slightly longer to be posted because we must process .doc and .rtf files manually"" +I have found that my stories submitted through .doc took 3 days longer than copy and paste. Yes, I know that in the Literotica Q&A they say it is all dependant about the volume of submissions and blah, blah, blah. But on the submission page they say it will take less time to submit when you copy and paste. +The problem is you have _italics_ , **bold** , and underlining in your story and you don't want to lose it when you copy and paste it into the site. +Below please see a simple guide as to how to copy and paste and still have all of your formatting. I had to remember web page design and then trial and error to get it to work. In addition to working on submissions they also work in the comment section, yet for some reason they don't work in the feedback portal yet. You might have seen a couple things in the feedback portal and wondered what they were, some of you might have already known about it, but this is for beginners on the site. +All three of the _**Italics, Bold, and Underline**_ are done in the same way. There are several steps involved. +1\. Before the word or words you want formatted start with a less than sign from math class, it is obtained by pressing ""SHIFT"" and comma "","" and it looks like this ""<"" +2\. Next comes the format that you want. Type ""i"" for _Italics_ , ""b"" for **Bold** , and ""u"" for Underline . +In the comment section the following additional formats can be used: ""br"" for break and ""p"" for paragraph. The difference between break and paragraph is that break goes directly to the next line, and paragraph skips a line leaving a blank line in between your text. Break and Paragraph are not needed in stories since they appear correctly by copy and paste. (Like I said above, they do not appear correctly in the feedback portal, but look correct on the story you commented on.) +3\. After the format that you want type a greater than sign by pressing ""SHIFT"" and period ""."" the greater than sign looks like this "">"". +4\. If you are leaving feedback as a comment and ONLY use break ""br"" and paragraph ""p"" then STOP. If you are using any other type of formatting, continue. +5\. If you want two or more different types of formatting for the same selection of text, then repeat steps 1, 2, and 3. +6\. Now type everything you want in that format. +7\. After you typed what you want formatted you must do the following. The process is the same except for an additional step. Repeat step 1 and type a less than sign ""SHIFT"" and comma "","" and it looks like this ""<"" +8\. Type a backslash ""/"" it is the same key as the question mark. +9\. Repeat step 2 and type the letter that corresponds with the format you used. Type ""i"" for _Italics_ , ""b"" for **Bold** , and ""u"" for Underline . +10\. Repeat step 3 and type a greater than sign by pressing ""SHIFT"" and period ""."" the greater than sign looks like this "">"". +11\. If you used more than one type of formatting you must repeat steps 7, 8, 9, and 10 for each different type of format used. +The final product should look like this: ""<"" ""i, b, u, br, or p"" "">"" What you want formatted ""<"" ""/"" ""same thing you just used"" "">"" +After you copy and paste your text into the selection, the best thing to do to make sure you entered it right is to preview your text to make sure you entered it right before submitting." +814,Subspace and Aftercare Online,bellaluna515,How To,2018-09-12,2018-09-12,2022-01-04 08:39:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/subspace-and-aftercare-online,Subspace and sub-drop and what aftercare means for online.,"['Aftercare', 'Bdsm', 'How To', 'Online Bdsm', 'Submission', 'Subspace']",4.38,"When we first meet someone and start to date, We get happy just seeing them, getting a text.

The mind is what puts us there!"" +Well yes, but you see it's more than that. Chemicals in your body release as it gets put pleasure then pain, pleasure, pain. Those endorphins just build up until it forces the mind to go into what is known as subspace. +Sex doesn't have to be involved. +That is correct. Sex DOES NOT have to be included for a submissive to enter subspace. +This includes online play with someone's dom ordering self flagellation. +Now, being in this this state can be highly dangerous to the submissive. For in this state, they will agree to pretty much anything. +This includes past what the body can safely endure. It is up to the dominant to realize that the submissive has reached this point and to bring them back to themselves safely. +Slowly bringing the submissive back to themselves as the scene ends. +Another way a submissive enters this state is through fully letting their mind go and letting the dominant take full control of their actions. +Letting the words and voice of their dominant pull them away from themselves. Yes like hypnosis. +Subspace is an altered state of being that in many ways mimics that of hypnosis. So dominants really need to be in full control during a scene, while playing. Both in real life, and online. +Most B.D.S.M. online is sexual in nature. Which brings into play what I see as a third type of subspace. A cross between the two forms above. +The mind puts the submissive into that altered state of being. What the submissive is doing to their body through their dominants control releasing chemicals and endorphins throughout the body. Simply put, a combination of sorts. +Many submissives I've spoken to, tell me that fantasy and reality seem to blend at this point and they can see, hear and feel their dominant. That their dominant is right there with them taking them ever higher. +Due to this, subdrop can and does occur with playing online. Having gradual scene build up and decline help immensely for subdrop to be minimal. It can sometimes not even occur at all. +The gradual build up and decline creates more of a riding the waves effect, that slowly recedes back to the ocean. +Rather than a spike up and cliff drop when everyone climax and then vanish. Which sadly occur too often in my humble opinion. +""So, wanna tell me what the hell subdrop is?"" +When we first start to date, It comes natural to hold one another. To cuddle. To help the other person feel good. +Especially after sex. +So basically aftercare in dating is kinda just included naturally without most of us realizing it. +Even online, it is something we require after playing with whom we choose. +Add in the B.D.S.M. element ...You can see where I'm headed with this yeah? +With scenes and play online, it is easy to forget to talk and comfort one another afterwards. We forget at times that in a way, connections go deeper because we are free to show more of our true selves. +Online we are free to be whom we really are at our core if we so choose. Which makes aftercare deeply important. +B.D.S.M. wiki states; +*Aftercare is used primarily to not only ensure the partner feels safe and secure, but can also be a wonderful exercise for the aftercare provider as well, furthering, the nurturing and bond between dominant and submissive. * +A lack of aftercare can be detrimental not only psychologically, but also physically for a submissive due to the aforementioned subdrop and the qualities that make us all who we are. +So remember, take the time after playing or scene to comfort, nurture and sooth your submissive. Make sure they are feeling safe, happy, content and secure, before leaving them to go about your day. +Complete aftercare doesn't just end right then. It needs to extend throughout the subdrop time frame which as stated before occurs for 24-72 hours afterwards as the body regulates itself back to normal. +Not only does this help prevent, and minimize subdrop, but it also helps to deepen that trust that bonds the dominant and submissive together. Heightening that most important part of a Bdsm relationship, Trust. +Remember. Even if online, subspace and the subdrop can and do occur. +And the best way to help it is of course, good ole fashioned aftercare." +815,SUBterraneanSPACE,Jamie_and_Lisa,How To,2020-08-19,2020-08-19,2022-01-04 08:39:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/subterraneanspace,1761 words. How and why we built a dungeon in our basement.,"['Anal', 'Enema', 'Group', 'Hetero', 'How To', 'Impact Play', 'Lesbian', 'Polyamory', 'Restraint', 'Submission']",,"1761 words. After we graduated from high school we rented a house together near the Junior College in Llano. Jamie, Lisa and Lillian were 18, Eva and Kristin were 19, George and Paul were 20. + **How and why we built a dungeon in our basement - 1980** +*** +It was so wonderful to just ""be,"" to passively experience and not to actively plan. I much prefer to come up with a loose ""script,"" or a guide and use it to improvise. Sex play is the one time in life that I can just turn my big brain off. Humans have HUGE brains relatively speaking. I can just be an object used by my lovers for their selfish enjoyment. I was a runner in high school and beyond. I understand pushing yourself. It is true: no pain - no gain. Our bodies were not made to sit in a five wheeled chair between dividers in the day and then on a sofa all evening. +I know my playmates and trust that no matter how much they hurt me, how much they push me into the new and unfamiliar, they will never intentionally permanently injure me. I have already given permission for them to use me. I said that I wanted to play rough. I want Paul to just use my body to get himself off. I don't want George to ask me if he should do something, I just want him to go ahead and do it. I know Eva and Jamie watching me as we play, that Lillian and Kristin are aware of my physiology before they shove their hands up my twat or ass and fist me. +When Kristin ties me to the padded table and Jamie squeezes my buds really hard to make me open my mouth wide as George sticks his penis down my throat and Paul simultaneously pushes his magnificent hardness mercilessly into my soppy wet vagina, I can easily pretend that I am just a lump of inanimate clay spinning around. Spinning just like my head was spinning, formless clay being transformed, manipulated by six skilled potters on a wheel into a beautiful magnificent artistic creation. +Paul and George both love riding on roller coasters. They know it's statistically safer to ride on a coaster than it is to drive the car 100 miles to the amusement park to ride that coaster. But our brains don't compute the true risks. They aren't programmed that way. So like in a magic trick you know the secret to, when they break character to behave or speak - or to play act something that would be awful in reality - the older reptilian part of my brain is reacting to the given stimulus. That 'ole ""fight or flight"" reaction is dumping endorphins and endocannabinoids into me making me fly high and feel no pain. +The newer part of my brain is buffering that stimuli, converting pain or fear or both into delicious quantities of sexual excitement. At some level I know I am not being physically injured, raped or having parts of my body sliced off of me. I understand that I won't be mutilated, crippled, strangled or left bound to expire from exposure. But just as the roller coaster aficionado knows that the car always pulls way up before it hits the rapidly approaching ground, his brain reacts to the visual stimuli of impending doom as well. +Keloid scars are slightly raised and slightly different in texture and color than the surrounding tissue. I have quite a few of them from the whip on my buttocks, a few on my breasts, and three small ones from flash brands on my pubis. I love those marks. When l look at them and when I touch them I start to lubricate involuntarily. They hurt when they were being made like my muscles hurt when I ran the two races I actually won in school. Those marks are my ribbons, trophies that nobody can ever take away from me. +I understand how people who don't know their partners inside out like safewords to give themselves a small measure of control. Why they play with those they don't trust, on the other hand, is totally inexplicable to me. But if you can just stop the game, then it isn't real. I trust that my lovers know what they are doing and they won't permanently injure me. I specifically don't want to think while I am being tormented, I want to be abjectly subject to their whims. I enjoy being tied up with George or Paul's penis deep in my throat cutting off my air supply. I know they will let me breathe, eventually. +I enjoy being tied to the padded wooden bench face-up, having my vagina slapped hard with a hand, riding crop, paddle, strap or flogger, and then immediately being penetrated and fucked hard. The sensations imparted by each tool are deliciously different. It would be great fun to do a doctoral dissertation in physics studying the different forces exerted on different erogenous structures from different impact play implements and the resulting stimulus received, I wonder who I should send my grant proposal for the research to, and I find it equally fun to be tied face-down and whipped before being buggered. +Sometimes when we all play together only one of the girls is gagged and tied to the bench. Unable to ask for relief except with her eyes, her pelvis and hip movements. I don't really masturbate anymore, at least not beyond a brief second or two of touching a scar and remembering exactly how I got it. It's a selfish act, my lovers will make me come if they want me to come. There have been many times when they lovingly finger-fucked me in the shower as they gave me an enema preparing me for later. +After drying off I might slip on the apron mom gave me, in order to safely cook naked. Mom, whose breasts and butt have the same keloids but in much greater numbers than mine. We are both pale in complexion, so they are not easy to see. Shortly after I moved here I asked her about them. Where they came from, she smiled and blushed and changed the subject which was probably a very good move. What could she have said about receiving them from my father that their daughter would have comprehended? It was something I would have to experience to appreciate the sublime joy of. +There, naked, but for mom's apron, I might mix a batter from scratch to make us all a sweet dessert. A cookie, cake or a pie that my tormentors would later enjoy as I was tied to the bench in the basement and teased, whipped and fucked really hard. Sometimes we all sat down and had a nice naked dinner together that one of us girls made. We laughed and drank wine and one of us got really, really wet thinking about the fact that after we did the dishes, while our food settled we'd walk down those stairs to the basement and be tied to the bench. +Like no safe words, I believe in no pre-conditions. We are a polygamous family unit. We have committed to live out our lives together, so we don't have to worry about our playmates making poor short-term choices. They will each be here when the bill comes due. If someone wants to, then I am game. Anal sex is a staple of ours. That usually means enemas to prepare for anal sex, lots of olive oil and rapeseed oil used as lube, and lots of additional enemas to clean it all out. Best of all, each one of those intimate acts is deliciously submissive by nature. +As an example of how stable relationships self-level, we tried inverse suspensions where the girl hung upside down. Aesthetically it's a very pretty and seemingly practical position, putting her mouth right at penis level. Not one of us liked it, however. Personally, I got dizzy and sick to my stomach. Buggering your playmate while she is screaming is sexy, face fucking her while she is barfing is not. Once one person rolfs in an enclosed party space that pretty much destroys the mood for the night. +Besides, there are plenty of other things to try out. It's funny, mom told me about the joys of anal sex. She didn't actually say ""it's fun you should try it."" But it was a focal point of a really detailed sex talk the three of us had just before Jamie and I moved into our own place. That talk was a recognition that we were all adults. The subject was our giving and receiving of sexual pleasure. Growing up we had lived on a farm. We knew where baby cows, sheep, goats, etc. came from. The extrapolation to humans was not a difficult one. +Mom told us that ""many people"" found that anal sex was an excellent way to have fun without getting pregnant, that an enema before hand made you feel really clean and confident, and that pushing out while being penetrated was the key to minimizing pain. I love the fact that at the appropriate times she told all of this to Paul, George and Ethan too, so they could share the information with the women in their lives. Ethan's wife Claire is the biggest butt-slut that I know, and that is really saying something. +I've spent a lot of time tied to that wooden bench and a lot suspended by ropes holding my beloved polished black leather wrist cuffs over my head. I adore getting fondled, fingered or fisted by one of the girls as I receive an enema to remove the boy's spunk from my ass. Or a douche to remove the lemon pulp from my vagina. For additional fun, sometimes we add a couple drops of castile soap to the enema water. The soap creates a wonderful series of abdominal cramps as your autonomic nervous system tries to get the offending but benign mixture out of you. The old red rubber bags accommodate a tray of ice cubes pretty well too. +That basement was a Holy space, where we learned as much as or more than we did in college. Behind its opaque window coverings and soundproofed by the other objects we had moved away from the centered floor drain to line its four concrete block walls. We placed the padded wooden bench on one side of the drain in the concrete floor. The enema station was located directly over that drain and a shower head was installed to the side of a column nearest the back door. Four patio chairs on two opposing sides with two little tables between them - for our obligatory drinks and cookies - completed our basement fun room." +816,Sugar Daddy Contract,chloedeboncourt,How To,2014-10-06,2014-10-06,2022-01-04 08:39:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sugar-daddy-contract,Sign this and become my sugar baby/slave.,"['Contract', 'Slave', 'Submission', 'Sugar Daddy']",4.25,"Suggar daddy contract +The following is a contract that I developed for myself, hoping that one day I would find someone who is daring enough to sign it with me.

A husband sits on the beach with his family and right nearby is a beautiful woman: incredibly pregnant. His secret desire is right next to him. His obsessive thoughts of sexy pregnant women he's kept hidden from everyone are running rampant. He puts on his sunglasses so he can gaze in her direction without being noticed. Little does he know but ""Heather"" is very aware of his attentions. +I've used the name ""John"" for you (the client). +Substitute your name and the name of your favorite pregnant sweetheart by cutting and pasting as you wish.

The title..... +The Summer of My Pregnancy....written by Heather in her eighth month +It has been a long hot summer. +I've been invited to spend the week at the shore with my girlfriends. +Today we have decided to go shopping. +But really, in my condition, I've decided to stay behind and sit out on the beach instead. +So I've walked out on our crowded beach to sit in my chair with my beach towel and a book: all by myself. +It is a beautiful sunny day. +There were times when a pregnant woman would never be seen in a two-piece but times have changed haven't they? +I'm wearing a pretty pink bikini that allows my exposed pregnant belly to tan with the rest of my body. +I love the sun so much that even my blonde hair has been getting even blonder. +It doesn't take long for me to notice the family next to me sitting on the sand. +And that is when I notice you looking at me. +In my sunglasses it might look like I'm reading my book but actually I'm observing you from the corner of my eye. +You and your family are right next to where I'm sitting. +It becomes very obvious that you, in particular, have been looking at me John; not just once or twice by every chance you get. +I'm in such a strange mood. +I'm feeling playful. +I'm in a mood for teasing. +I know you are watching me. +You've caught me at the right moment because John, I am craving attention right now. +I decide to test your attention. +I lower my book and look at my baby bump. +I run my hand slowly over my pregnant belly pretending I felt the baby move. +I allow my hand to linger there exploring it with my hand. +And there you are, sure enough, watching me the whole time. +Most men ignore me John. +I am a woman in her latest stage of pregnancy. +I know I'm pretty. +Men used to stare and flirt with me constantly. +But after eight months of pregnancy things like flirtatious looks from other men don't happen like they used to. +It makes me sad that men don't think I'm beautiful. +Because being pregnant like this, I have been feeling more sexy than I ever have in my whole life! +I have always hoped somewhere there are men who find pregnant women desirable. +And here on this beach, quite unexpectedly, it seems as if I've discovered that man. +But you are surrounded by your family. +What am I to do? +I feel your eyes on me and an indescribable feeling comes over me. +It's like a switch has been turned on inside. +In just seconds: I desire sex. +My husband wants nothing to do with me. +Don't ask me why. +Oh, he's nice and everything but the more I have grown pregnant the less he wants sex. +My pregnancy is so advanced, my belly is so big and tight its belly button is popping out. +My breasts are enormous. +My areolas have gotten darker and my nipples have become thick and toughened becoming ready for the baby when she comes. +They are sensitive and respond immediately to every touch. +Everything I have is there for my husband whenever he wants me. +But he doesn't want me. +I've tried to talk with him about it. +He doesn't realize how much I think about it: how much I need it. +In a matter of seconds I can change from the perfectly conservative expectant mother to a woman who craves the way it used to be. +It happens all the time for me. +One moment I am fine. +And the next I am craving a cock that is massaging the thick walls of my vagina, sliding up inside me, massaging, satisfying my hunger for it and it takes over all my thoughts! +My husband even knows just how far I would debase myself for him if only he would fuck me long and hard and yet he does nothing about it. +He ignores me! +I used to feel ashamed lusting after his cock so often. +I have gotten on my knees and sucked him so good praying he would give it to me a long hard pussy fucking me until I come so good: just once. +And he won't do it. +I become so hungry for that kind of sex I can spend hours in my bed alone pleasing myself with my fingers playing with my clit, putting them inside my own pussy until I make myself come. +It's so frustrating because it doesn't satisfy me completely. +But that is all I have. +I deserve more that, John. +And here you suddenly are surrounded by your family giving me looks that are driving me wild. +I don't care about what anyone thinks. +I will do everything I can to enhance and develop that attention in any way I can. +I have been deprived for far too long to let this chance pass me by. +I need to make you really see me. +I'm taking off my sunglasses and pretending I don't notice you. +I reach in my bag for suntan lotion. +I squeeze it onto the palm of my hand and slip my bikini straps so they drape down my arms and apply lotion lovingly to my bare shoulders. +More, thick creamy white sunblock is applied carefully to the slope of my chest. +My fingertips go just beneath my bikini top seam carefully finding places which just might become sunburned if I don't protect myself. +I re-arrange my bikini straps on my shoulders again. +I adjust my pink top adjusting it so my oversized breasts settle into their cups more comfortably. +I am slow and obvious to you yet I pretend you aren't watching. +I can't lean over this pregnant belly like other girls +In this higher style lawn chair and one ankle across my knee there is no missing my parted legs, my bikini bottoms and the way they hug my crotch. +I apply sunblock onto each one of my legs very deliberately. +Another woman would excuse that display due to my condition. +But spending all that time positioned this way allows you to see the bulge of my pregnant pussy straining against the material right there before your eyes. +That view of me was for your eyes John. +I can feel you watching me intently. +I use my hands slowly on my inner thighs framing the obvious space between my legs. +The sun is warm. I shake back my silky blonde hair. +I stand up from my chair. +I squeeze more sunblock into my palm. +I apply that sunblock lovingly onto my pregnant belly as if I am completely alone on this beach. +I smooth its protection slowly and deliberately: all over its sides, its heavy bulge, even testing my popped out belly button. +Ten feet away you are sitting there with your friends and family staring at this private sensual ritual I have provided for just you. +Watch as my hands apply it all about the abundance of my protruding belly until I have made sure every bit has been absorbed by its upper bulge, its swollen sides and by working two hands beneath its underside carefully every inch of this eighth month fullness of my pregnancy has been lovingly attended to. +There is more John. +I turn away and try to reach my back with sun block ; moving from one hip to the other. +You can see the fullness of my buttocks in my pink bikini bottoms. +There is no missing my wide hips or my waistline and the protrusion of my belly on both sides. +I will bend forward to put sunblock on the backs of my legs so you can't miss this ass of mine and +a peek at my pussy from behind. +It bulges tight and firm against the offered crotch of my bikini bottoms for you. +You haven't missed any of it. +How to separate you from your family is my only thought. +I decide maybe it's time to visit the waters' edge to cool my feet. +This way I can walk carefully past where you are sitting. +No one is paying any attention to me but you. +As I pass I look into your eyes and smile at you for the first time and you smile back.. +At the waters' edge I look back over my shoulder to where you are sitting and hold my stare for a moment. +I see you talk to your family as they begin picking up their belongings and leave the beach for lunch as you linger behind. +I'm hoping we can finally talk when I see you come to where I'm standing. +I am so filled with anticipation. +You are beside me. +We make small talk. +You are handsome, friendly, attentive and so nice +We talk about my baby coming. +You compliment me. +I move the conversation to my girlfriends and my beach house. +It's right nearby, I tell you, only a walk away. +I mention how comfortable it is compared to this hot beach. +I tell you I'm thinking of going up there. +Would you mind helping me with my chair? +My mind is racing. +My friends will be gone from the beach house for hours. +You agree. +There is no sign of your friends or family. +Do you see what I mean? +In no time at all my thoughts are overwhelmed by sinful, illicit thoughts focusing on you being alone with me inside those doors. +You carry my chair as we walk across the sand. +I pretend to lose my balance so I can take your arm. +It stays there. +I've brushed against you. +I'm in this little cover-up. +It barely hides my pregnant belly. +It's obvious where your eyes are looking. +I've wanted to get your complete attention. +I tried not to be obvious about it but now I am and you know it. +The sand is hot. +We get to the house and stand by the outdoor shower where you hose off our feet for us both before we go inside. +You are so cute John. +You offer to dry my feet for me. +We close the sliding doors behind us. +I explain again that my girlfriends won't be back for hours. +Would you like to sit down and have a drink with me? +It's so hot outside and it's so comfortable in here isn't it? +John I saw how you were watching me on the beach. +You are so different about pregnant women than other men. +I think I know how you feel about them.. +You see pregnant women all the time. +You stare at their pregnant bellies, their breasts bulging out of their tops, +You see them in stores, at the mall, walking with their girlfriends, in restaurants, in the office, you see them every day and they seem so reserved, private and content going about their lives and waiting for the birth of their child. +But you have no idea what we are going through inside. +If men who are excited by a pregnant woman knew that about us: oh my god. +It doesn't matter if we are single, living with someone or happily married: we yearn for attention from a man every minute of the day. +And it's not conversation we want. +We've worked at our jobs for as long as we could. +Now we are so pregnant that we are at home, we can't sleep, our backs hurt, our feet are sore and our maternity leave is so boring we are going crazy. +There is nothing to do but wait. Our husbands are at work. Our friends aren't around. +There is TV and magazines and we can go shopping or take a walk but everywhere we go and everything we think about goes back to wanting to just feel good like we used to, wanting to feel pleasure again, and always, always, always: wanting sex. +It is much more than our emotions. +No matter how prudent we think we are, there are hormones and feelings raging inside us that would make us abandon everything waiting faithfully at home. +I am going to make an admission to you. +Every other pregnant woman you've seen is no different than I am John. +We have the same urges, the same desires and the same wants. +Eventually we yearn to be satisfied in a man's arms. +Something as simple as a hello can make us all into your sweet lovely pregnant Heather: sensual, aroused and so very willing. +It's every pregnant woman's obsession. +They would happily be in the same predicament that I am in with you right now. +We have what you love. +You watching me on the beach made me feel so sexy. +It made me feel desired John and I need that right now. +I can't be blamed if I like feeling desired and here we are alone. +""Oh!"" +I can feel the baby move. +Here: feel my belly. +Can you feel it? +Can you feel her movement inside me? +Put your hands here like that. +Oh My!

How to become a world class lover by September. 2. The perfect sexual experience.,"['G-Spot', 'Kegel', 'Kegels', 'Male Kegels', 'Oral Sex', 'Oral Sex How-To', 'Rim', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",,"We have received several emails asking Jimmy and me what sex act brings a woman the greatest pleasure? We've agree on an answer that we will post just after September 1, but we're delaying until then because, with so readers on vacation in August, this is an ideal moment for a self-taught summer school course in sexual pleasure. As the theory goes, give a man and woman a fish and they won't be hungry for a day; teach them how to fish and they won't be hungry for the rest of their lives. We're starting with the woman in a three part course: a lecture, a homeward assignment, and finally our answer to the question. That might surprise you and change your definition of a woman's sexual ecstasy--or you might disagree completely. The point is that by the time you've read the lecture and done your homework, you should be well on the way to answering the question for yourselves. +One note before beginning. What follows is quite technical. It addresses issues that can be embarrassing to speak about. However, a woman shouldn't be embarrassed about her body. She should celebrate, it realizing that the more she knows about how it works, the more pleasure she will get from sex. Great sexual experiences do not fall out of the sky. They are the result of knowing your body and how it is aroused. They are also the by product of trust, love, and commitment between two people. The frankness that follows will be relatively worthless is these qualities do not exist between you and your lover. +The lecture +A disclaimer: Every woman is wired differently. What turns me (Celeste) on, may not do a thing for you. When Jimmy sticks his tongue in my ear, or sucks on my toe next to the pinky on my right foot, or presses gently at the point where my carotid artery passes over my chin line, I see stars. In addition to what follows, every woman should take an inventory of her body to discover you own individual pleasure points. +That having been said, There are three major pleasure points in all women's bodies, located within inches of each other below the navel: your anus, your g-spot, and your clitoris. It's important that you understand them and how they work together. Your first homework assignment this summer is to learn to appreciate your body and how you can make it happy. Read this lesson and follow its instructions. Use plenty of lube when doing this exploring, making sure your fingernails are trimmed and filed, or covered +1\. Your anus (asshole). Most of these pleasure sensors are located in the little furrow between your outer and inner sphincters. Take your finger and slowly, gently insert it into your ass. Touch along the wall for something that feels like a rubber band. That is your outer sphincter. Push forward unit you meet resistance. That is your inner sphincter. The outer is a voluntary muscle that you can control; the inner is an involuntary muscle that needs to be trained to relax. It is pushing through the inner without training or practice that causes pain, sometimes extreme pain. There are several suggestions in the Guide for this training. The use of toys is particularly helpful. +Remaining outside the inner sphincter, run your pointer finger around the furrow, first clockwise and then counterclockwise. Welcome to a surge of pleasure you may not have known existed. If your inner is trained or if your willing to endure the temporary pain, push through into the rectum. There are no pleasure points beyond the sphincters; it's all smooth, form fitting tissue, but it gives you, and your lover, that feeling of fullness when his penis is in it. If you're truly brave, or have trained over the summer, insert your middle finger as well. Slowly scissor open your anus using the two fingers to experience the pleasure an erect penis brings to this area. +Before leaving your hole, insert your thumb into your vagina and your pointer finger into your anus. Trying rubbing them together and you will find that your can't. What separates them is a thin but extremely tough membrane through which nothing passes. When you're enjoying anal sex, there's nothing in the rectum itself that brings pleasure. It's the angle of penetration that permits the penis to press against your g-spot with this membrane between that brings pleasure. +2\. Your g-spot. This can be hard to find, but it's probably the most important spot in your body to locate. It's a rough, uneven little patch that feels a little bit like corduroy when you rub your finger across it. It's located two or three inches into your vagina on the outer wall, the one closest to your surface skin. To find it, take your middle finger or your middle and pointer fingers and insert it/them into your vagina. Make a ""come here"" sign with them, moving them toward the palm of your hand. Move your fingers around until you find your g-spot. It may take time, but your patience will be rewarded with a lifetime of pleasure. I remember when I made contact with mine for the first time. If you've ever touched a short-circuited appliance or received a shock when changing a light bulb, think of that feeling and reduce it by maybe three quarters. That's what I felt. Once you've found your g-spot, show your lover exactly where it is and have him touch it as well. Pressing against it with his penis should be the Holy Grail for him and he needs to know exactly where he should aim. +The problem with the g-spot is that it is difficult to access from any man-on- top position. A g-spot stimulator looks a little bit like a fish hook. There probably aren't many penises with that shape. That's why the approach from the rear, doggie style, is so popular. That at least allows for incidental contact between the penis and the g-spot. Anal entry is even better. Look at a cross- section rendering of a woman's anatomy and you'll see that penis contact with the g-spot is just a question of angles and vectors, simple physics. +3\. Your clitoris. Maybe the most misunderstood organ in a woman's body. Every woman knows where the nub of her clitoris is. It's the little protrusion at the apex of your vagina tha, when stroked, helps to produce an orgasm. Between 70 and 80 percent of women say that they can't experience an orgasm without this stimulation. What many couples don't know is that 85% of the clitoris lies beneath the skin and is shaped somewhat like a turkey or chicken wishbone. Its arms extend down the rims of your vagina ending near your anus. Stroking the arms produce a a gentle, wave like pleasure for a woman that is often overlooked. +Sadly, the pleasure of stimulating the arms of the clitoris are not available to every woman. You don't have to be skinny to find them, but a woman who is seriously overweight won't be able to as two of the first places fatty tissue accumulates are around the lips of the vagina and the anus. If you want a good reason to eat fruits and vegetable and exercise regularly, remember this. Not only will you feel better and probably live longer, but the pleasure you get from sex will ramp up significantly. This, incidentally, is the answer to the old question of why thin women seem to enjoy sex more: the arms of their clits are being stimulated during insertion. +For a guy to be a great lover, he has to master the complexities his penis, which can be a misunderstood as a woman's clit. From a sensual--not psychological--point of view, its length doesn't matter. As a matter of, the longer you are, the more careful you have to be about bruising your partner. This is especially true if you ""bottom out"" in either her vagina or rectum. You're not going to touch anything in a woman's body that give her pleasure beyond her g-spot and that is located only two or three inches inside her vagina. Thickness, on the other hand, girth, matters a great deal as a thick dick stimulates either the arms of the clitoris or the anal ring during intercourse. There probably is no such thing as too thick a dick. Don't despair if you haven't been gifted with one. One of the great toys available to men is a condom with little nubs extending out from it if you're practicing safe sex or a ribbed sleeve with both ends open if you're not. Wear it once and you'll wear it all the time. Remember, however, that slamming in and out of either the vagina or anus with it on produces only incidental contact with either the arms or ring and that isn't what drives a woman to distraction. That happens when you S-L-O-W-L-Y AND SHALLOWLY insert yourself, withdraw, and repeat. +The shape of your penis is also important. Does your penis stick straight out or is it curved pointing back to your belly button or down toward your knees? One of the keys to great sex is your ability to massage your lover's g-spot with your penis and it's shape should determine your position. If you stick straight out and are flexible you can adopt any position you want. If you're rigidly curved toward you belly button, woman on top works best. If you're rigidly curved toward the floor, reverse cowgirl (the woman sitting on top but facing away from you) might be best. +In addition to girth and shape, the you need to come to grips (!) with the pleasure centers on your penis and your ability to control your ejaculation. A man's pleasure points are just as concentrated as a woman's. If you doubt this, grab your penis at its base and jerk it. Nothing will happen because there are no pleasure points beneath the two key ones: some in the head, but particularly the frenulum, which is the hinge located just below the head on the underside. Grab the skin covering it between your thumb and forefinger, massage there, and you'll understand. Deep throating may produce an orgasm just as bottoming out may, but that is only because of incidental contact of the throat with these pleasure points. A throw your head back and scream blow job is the result you lover nibbling at the frenulum, very gently scraping her teeth across it, or massaging it with her tongue. +It's also important for a guy to understand how to control the timing of his ejaculation. To learn about this, research ""Kegels for men."" This involves the training the muscle that controls you ability to stop and go when urinating. Like any muscle, training strengthens it. With a little effort on your part, you can delay your ejaculation and cum at the same time as your partner. Be sure, however, to put the brakes on early. If you don't, you'll experience the unpleasantness of penile ""dry heaves"" where the muscles that control your ejaculation spasm but nothing comes out. That's the end of your interest in sex for a while. +Once both of you understand your bodies, the next question is how to stimulate the three pleasure centers in a woman: with your fingers, tongue, penis, or a toy. Some combinations are clearly impossible, such as his tongue on your g-spot. Most, however, present several options for pleasure. You need to experiment to see what combinations bring pleasure, which maximize this pleasure, and which are so stimulating that they create shock rather that pleasure. Everyone's tastes will differ, but Celeste and I find that stimulating two pleasure spots at the same time triples or quadruples the pleasure of exciting just one while stimulating all three is often over the top, provoking shock rather than pleasure. There is one exception to this rule but we are saving it for part two, by which time you will hopefully have discovered it on your own. Remember that 70-80% of woman cannot orgasm without clitoral stimulation so that should always be one of the pleasure points involved. +August is a great month to try various combinations. Keep mental notes on what works best for you, remember how different we all are. Here's an example of what Jimmy and I discovered from our lives together. When we first partnered, Jimmy (who does have a magical tongue) used to eat me out regularly. I would orgasm and thought it was a great experience, but that changed for two reasons. First it was only a one (only my clit was involved) and he was doing the stimulating. As talented and kind a lover as he is, that didn't work for me in the long run. He was telling my body how and when to orgasm when I was the only person who really knew what I wanted and when I wanted it. So then we changed to rimming, the magic tongue in my anal furrow as I stroked first the arms and then the nub of my clit. That is a perfect two for me. In fact, we debated whether this should be the answer to the readers' question. In the end, we agreed that there was something even better, but that rimming should be foreplay to it. Having enjoyed a two so much, we decided to try a three-- and that wasn't a great idea. After stroking my clit's arms, I put my thumb on its nub and hooked my middle finger into my vagina, finding my g-spot. Pressing my thumb and middle finger together and rotating them was awkward, but certainly produced an intense orgasm. That just wasn't a pleasant sensation. It was a raw, shocking one that we've never repeated. In great sex, less is frequently more. +After you've mastered the physical realities of great sex, the last thing you have to do is train the largest muscle in your body: your brain. Guys have to unlearn the concept that it's about the working out of their pleasure or that they are responsible for delivering pleasure to women. If the object of having sex is to deliver pleasure to a woman, he should play a fairly passive role many times. (It's an entirely different story if the purpose is to deliver pleasure to a man.) His job is to supply an erect penis and hands and a tongue that know where and how to touch a woman. Get over the idea that the harder you fuck or the faster you rub a clit, the better lover you'll be. It's just about the opposite for me (but may not be for you). Gentle, slow, and shallow drive me to distraction. +Ladies, your brain training is just as important. It's your body and you're in charge of it. No mysterious force put you in bed with your lover; you're there because you want to be there. Don't leave your partner guessing about what you want. You've taught him about your body, now it's time to show him how to bring you the greatest pleasure. If you're embarrassed to use words, use non- verbal communications: a touch, a change of position, etc. There's all the difference in the world between your fucking yourself on his penis and he fucking you. Both have a place, but it's your call, not his. If he wants to make you happy, he'll appreciate not having to guess at what to do. +Your homework assignment +For women: +1\. Precisely locate your g-spot. Then guide your lover's finger(s) to it so that he can know where it is. +2\. Explore your anus and the arms of your clit to see how they respond to various forms of stimulation. Talk frankly about this with your partner, accepting the fact that your body is a marvelous instrument for pleasure and that understanding it is the key to unlocking that pleasure. +3\. Experiment with various forms of stimulation of your g-spot, anus, and clit. See how you respond to the arousal of one, two, or three of them. +4\. While you are doing this, make a mental note of points of arousal in your body beyond the three major pleasure points. +5\. Learn to take control of the sex act. You're not a passive recipient of what a man thinks gives you pleasure. It's your body and your in charge of it. If you have a great lover as a partner, he will recognize and appreciate this. +For men: +1\. Explore your penis and the precise location of pleasure points on it. +2\. Do Kegels for men exercises, learning to control the timing of your ejaculations. A great homework assignment is to have your lover nibble at your frenulum trying to extract and ejaculation while you practice your Kegels trying to prevent it. You're eventually going to lose, but a loss never felt so good and the longer you can hold out, the stronger the muscle. +3\. Come to grips with the fact that a great lover isn't always a forceful one. If your partner wants to be dominated, all well and good. If, on the other hand, she wants you to play a passive role while she is active you need to respect that desire. If you can visualize making love in extremely slow motion, you've taken a giant step toward success. +Come back in September having done your homework. It should be a fun August.

When you boil it down to the fundamentals, there is really nothing to it. +Since this site is often read for erotic pleasure, I'll provide a few 'visual' details about myself. I'm 34 years old, 6 feet tall, blue eyed, blond hair, 165 lbs, have a post-graduate degree, consider myself something of an intellectual, but dedicate a regular portion of my week to physical fitness (with a 6-pack to prove it). I have a minor amount of chest hair. Otherwise, I'm clean shaven. The gals love me for my eyes and tell me I should always wear jeans. +So ... how does one give an incredible blowjob. This is how Crystal did it. +After a bit of foreplay, and assuming that all the clothes have been tossed aside by this stage, have your man lie back and relax. Begin by tracing your lips down his chest and along his belly. Include soft, teasing kisses above and below his navel, tracing with your tongue periodically. Very gently, caress his balls with your fingers as you kiss. Continue kissing, concentrating above his navel. Then, lift your chest up with your arms and gently drag your breasts side to side and up and down around the area of his upper thighs and across his cock and balls. If his member is not hard by this stage, it soon will be. You do not need to have large breasts to drive your man insane with this move. My cock would get so hard by the feel of Crystal's smooth breasts, contrasted by the sensation of her hard nipples, that I would nearly pop on the spot. +After an appropriate amount of this type of teasing, it is time to move along to the main event. Crystal would position herself between my legs, spread them slightly and begin running her tongue around my balls. She would trace her tongue a short way up the shaft and back down to the balls. The licking would be gentle and slow, with lots of saliva. You will probably be able to gauge by the moaning of your partner how long to continue with this licking action. If you are both horny as hell and ready for a rough fuck, then you might want to move along quickly to the next stage. If the mood is romantic and loving, you might linger at this stage a little longer. +By now, your man will be hung between the absolute pleasure of you licking his most sensitive area and getting you to move along to the ultimate stimulation because he is dying to blow his load. Move over to one side of your partner (so that you are no longer between his legs) and take his shaft in your hand. Using your thumb and forefinger, form a ring that is about the diameter of your man's cock. Put the head of the penis in your mouth and position the ring from your thumb and forefinger immediately below the head (so that the ring is resting against your own lips). Now you are ready for the most pleasurable stage of the blowjob. +Take his cock deep into your mouth while sliding the ring of your thumb and forefinger down in a synchronized motion (always keeping this ring so that it is below your lips). While sliding down his shaft and then back up, use saliva to generously lube his hard-on and also the ring formed by your thumb and forefinger. Continue sliding up and down with your mouth and slowly tighten the ring of your fingers around his cock, still using lots of saliva. Your goal here is to turn your mouth into the tightest, wettest little pussy that your man has ever felt. The point of using your fingers in the shape of a ring and lots of saliva is so that you can apply more lubricated friction around his cock. A woman simply cannot create this sensation using just her mouth alone. And even if she tries, you risk unintentionally dragging your teeth across the shaft which is not exactly pleasurable. +As with most sexual touches, you will need to watch your partner to determine the exact pressure and rhythm that gets him off. Starting slow is always the best, but you should speed your stoking action up as you feel him becoming more excited. The depth can be varied as well; alternate taking his cock deep into your mouth and pushing the ring of your fingers far down on his shaft with periods of short, quick thrusts that just ride over the rim at the base of the head. +If the guy is really excited, he will help with a little humping action, giving you a hint at the rhythm that he desires. But don't let him have it entirely his way. If he is clearly begging to cum, slow it down, increase the pressure with the ring of your fingers and give him a few deep shaft strokes. +When you are finally ready to take his load, finish him off by continuing with the same lubricated mouth and finger ring action, speeding up the rate in rhythm with his hip motion (assuming he is really into it). The only remaining question is whether to spit or swallow. Crystal was a spitter, and did it in such an erotic way. She would spit my cum onto my belly, and then slowly rub her chin and cheek through it as she stared upward into my eyes. The sight of her staring at me lovingly while smearing my cum around her face was enough to make me squirt a few extra shots. +And that is it. Hope this is helpful to some lucky couple out there." +820,Surviving the Night,Sean Renaud,How To,2014-05-13,2014-05-13,2022-01-04 08:39:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/surviving-the-night,A survival guide for your newly turned monster.,"['Monster', 'Survival Guide']",3.73,"There are lots and lots of survival guides teaching you how to survive hunting the creatures that go bump in the night. Guides on how to persevere through attacks by aliens and robot menaces and even manuals on what to do if there is an outbreak of the Black Plague in the world. Most of those instructions are roughly the same anyway. Stay hydrated, keep your weapons nearby, don't do anything stupid because it's you know, stupid. What's currently lacking in the world are any definitive guides on how to survive if you are one of the things that goes bump in the night. There are a couple of reasons for this and it would probably behoove us to explore a few of them before getting any farther along in this conversation. +The reason there aren't a lot of guides telling you how to survive the world of darkness is because the majority of humans simply don't want you to survive very long. Sure there's this current mini-kick (I'll explain why I call it a mini-kick in a second) of pro-vampire propaganda floating around right now but that's really about it. They for the most part though don't show creatures of the night as we. . .as you really are. Go watch True Blood or Vampire Diaries. For every good vampire they show off there are a dozen who are souless monsters eager to destroy the world. It's not exactly an engine pushing your kind as something deserving of life is it? Twilight is about as close as it gets and just it'll be a cold day in Hell before I put on glitter and play baseball during a thunderstorm. (Getting hit with lightning is extremely unpleasant, or so I'm told.) So the first thing you need to understand is that the humans don't want you to survive. Don't look to them for help and do not trust them. Not ever. If you are forced to reveal yourself leave as soon as possible after that if you value your life or theirs. (But you shouldn't value their lives anymore than a run of the mill human values the life of a chicken, pig or cow.) +The next thing on our list is something that far too many young monsters make. Don't go looking for trouble. If I didn't know from personal. . .completely fictional. . .experience that this rule needs to come early in the list. It seems like common sense to me but apparently it's not. I know you think you're all bad ass with your new found ability to hear a cricket fart in the next room (neat ain't it?) or how you can actually smell the delicious aroma of fear on those delicious little Happy Meals with legs but you need to remember you are not invincible. There are a lot of things running around that make you look like an insect, small an utterly irrelevant. Some of them are bigger badder monsters who eat things like you for lunch with a side of fries. The only thing you can do about them though is learn to identify them quickly and accurately and stay out their way. There is something else wandering the world that pose a far more immediate threat to people. +Hunters. +Here's the skinny on hunters. They come in all sorts of varieties and all different kinds of names. Slayers and Hunters are the two most common terms, sometimes they have the backing of some kind of government or large organization, sometimes they don't. Either way they should be avoided. I know how it is to be young and dumb. There was a time when I was still only a few hundred years old and I used to do the same thing. Get together with a couple of my mates over a pint of blood, roast baby, BBQ virgin or what have you and talking about how you going to find one of these vigilantes rip off their heads, piss down their throats, make their children watch and wear their parent's skin as Halloween costumes. Don't do it. First because any self respecting creature of the night takes Halloween off, it's been that way since it got all commercialized, there are plenty of holidays just for our (your, I mean your) people you can leave that one night to the humans and the posers. Second because they will kill you. This is what they do for a living and you're just a dumb ass trying to make a name for yourself. If you are meant to have a name (how many important humans can you name? Out of the billions on this planet less than a few thousand matter on the grand scale) that people will remember fame will come to you and not because you decided to go picking fights with professional murderers. +Learn your limitations and learn them quickly. If you have a maker ask them questions and if they don't know the answers find a safe way to test them. Not all of you have fatal sunlight allergies, some of you have to untie every knot in a rope before you can move on. Some of you can't cross water or will be killed by iron or wood. I once heard of a breed of monster that could only be killed with disodium tetraborate. Cocky sonsofbitches thought they were invincible until they ran across of all things a bunch of angry janitors. The point here though is to know what you're weak to and then do your best to either stay away from it entirely (I can't stress enough why vampires should live in houses with lots of metal and plastic furniture when possible. Stuff that can't burn and won't make a stake particularly well. It might cost a little extra but you'll be five finger discounting quite a bit in the early years anyway.) or at least be fully aware of it. +Which lead me to my next point. I'm not saying stealing isn't fun, so is smashing stuff but you kinda want to keep a low profile if you don't want to get killed. Either by a hunter or by something like me who's had enough unwanted attention to last until the stars go cold and will gladly wipe out a little grease stain like yourself so I can be left alone for a few more decades. When you can use money, it just makes things easier and everybody is always getting on our shit for not having brilliant portfolios. Well let me tell you being immortal doesn't give you brilliant insight so stick to just gathering physical things and calling it a day. +So that should about cover the things you need to know. Basically don't be an idiot, don't start shit you can't finish and above everything else know your limitations. If you need any help don't come find me. I tend to kill intruders on sight." +821,Survivor: A Tool For Writers,RedHairedandFriendly,How To,2012-02-22,2012-02-22,2022-01-04 08:39:14,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/survivor-a-tool-for-writers,Using Survivor as a tool - setting goals - expanding skills.,"['Contest', 'Writing']",3.0,"This is not a How To on how to win the Literotica contest, Survivor. It's a How To on how to use this year long contest as a writing tool. First, like many submissions that discuss the contest, I'll give you a brief recap of what Survivor is, but unlike some of the previous stories from previous writers, I am not going through all the rules. Though I will discuss immunities and goals further in the submission. +I strongly believe the rules need to be rewritten in layman's terms, but even that could get complicated. If the lingo of Survivor confuses you, my apologies. I can suggest that a quick perusal of the Survivor Rules, on the forum, be your dictionary. +Survivor is a year-long competition that encourages writers, new and old, to submit original, never before published works to Literotica's story board. It is also there to encourage writers to try and cover as many genres that Lit., offers as well as submit as many stories that their muse stirs up. There are ways to avoid the categories authors may find unappealing. +This is how I am suggesting you use Survivor to expand your writing skills – winning or losing the contest is up to you. +If this is your first year of playing the game, I would suggest that you look over all the genres of Lit., including the poetry categories. Make a goal – one story for every category – yes, even those categories you're sitting there saying: I would NEVER write in that category! NEVER! Okay, that's fine. Win an immunity and slide it into that spot and don't write it, but one story, even in the category you don't like, will expand your creativity – allowing you the opportunity to write out of your comfort zone. +My personal goals this year for the contest are listed below. If I win Survivor or place in the top five, that's great! If I don't, that's okay too, because I'm not using this contest to win it, I'm using it to grow as a writer. I'm not saying I don't want to win, just that it isn't my end-all-be- all goal. +2012 Survivor Goals – achievable in any order: +Goal #1: Write in every category (unless I win an immunity – this is my 3rd year participating) Goal #2: If I win an immunity, immediately make it valid Goal #3: Reach cap level 1 in all Poetry genres Goal #4: Submit a story in every themed contest offered on Literotica Goal #5: Reach cap level 1 in all genres Goal #6: Repeat goals 2 – 5 for cap level 2 Goal #7: Repeat goals 2 – 5 for cap level 3 Goal #8: Just write whatever I want and place it where I'm allowed. +For purposes of this how to, you're going to be setting the long term goal of one story per category, to be completed by the end of the year- even if you use an Immunity. After this, I want you to set a second goal, this one is for every immunity you receive and use, you are going to immediately focus on a favorite category you like and commit to writing at the minimum, three stories. +But why? +Because I said so – well, that and because with every immunity you win, in order for them to remain valid, you have to match them with a category where you have written/submitted/had approved 3 stories. For example: Win an Immunity – place it in Illustrated Stories, and you need to have placed 3 stories in a category such as Chain Stories (you can choose any category to place your immunity). +The reason you need to concentrate on those 3 stories and teaming them with that one immunity, is because you can easily lose track of immunities if you win several. Hold onto your hats, this next paragraph may sound confusing. +For example: You are rewarded six immunities in the course of the contest and then find out you didn't place enough stories in 6 different categories, your immunities that aren't teamed up with a category, are invalid. Having valid immunities are necessary if you wish to claim bonus points, by completing 10-20-30-35 categories. +Once you've committed to the one story in every category, even with the immunity on your score card, and you've made your immunity valid, I want you to set another goal. This one is to reach the cap level on the poetry portions of the contest. +You may think – Red, I can't write poetry. +Yes, you can. There are a lot of tools out there at your disposal. You may see poetry as only words that rhyme and that's okay. Poetry can be a plethora of words or just a few strung together. I suggest, if you are really struggling with the concept of poetry, you simply open up your web browser and do a search on writing poetry, or types of poetry. +Finishing the poetry sections' first cap level, may seem intimidating when you hit the Audio Poetry genre, but I want you to sit back, relax, and not freak out. There are ways of handling the audio genres of Lit. +First, you can choose to read and submit your work yourself, or you can write the work, and ask someone else to read it for you, and then you can submit it. As long as the written work is yours, it's eligible for the contest. This also works for the Audio Stories as well. +When you think Audio Stories I don't want you to think – Oh my God, Red wants me to orgasm and have my personal noises blanketing the web. Nope, I'm not saying that at all. You don't have to climax in your story; it's an audio submission. You can write a story and read it. It doesn't have to be a recording of you moaning, groaning and grunting. So don't let that category freak you out either. Again, you're using Survivor to expand your writing horizons. +Once you've reached cap level one on poetry, then move on to something else. If you do come up with another poem entry, write it out, and save it. You can submit it and use the points if/when they become eligible. Another good point, if you do find yourself struggling with poetry, don't ignore the other categories, always work on something that will get you to your goals. +You've reached cap level one on all the poetry genres and you've reached cap level one for all the immunities you've won, so now all your immunities are valid. Now, you need a new goal. After all, there are still several months before the contest is over! Go back and work on that one in every category goal. +Another goal you're going to set is you are going to enter every themed contest Lit. offers. Yep, every last one: Valentine's Day, Earth Day, Nude Day, Summer Lovin', Halloween, Winter – for contest rules/details you need to visit the Author's Forum on the Bulletin Board of Literotica. By entering every contest you're again setting goals within goals: Yay, you! +Now you've got goals that cover stories in every category, valid immunity goals, cap level goals, themed contest goals. A quick note – if you do reach cap level one and begin working on cap level two and receive more immunities, you will have to again team cap level two categories with a new immunity to make that new immunity valid – Yeah, I know – this part of the game can be confusing. That's why this is a ""Tool"" How To, not a ""Win"" How To. +Hypothetically, I'm going to say you've won ZERO immunities, yet you've managed to complete several of your goals; you've managed to at the least – if you write one story in every category – write 35 stories! Congratulations! You submitted stories in every themed contest and are awarded 6 more stories to your yearly pile of work! You're up to 41 stories for the year! +Okay, now let's really add up the numbers. You've reached the level one cap level for every category – it's hard, but it can be done. 35 x 3 = 105 stories + 6 contest entries = 111 submissions for the year! Congratulations! You've used Survivor to expand your submissions and you can say – I have written in every category! I did it! +Did you place in the top 5? Maybe, maybe not. In the end, if you use Survivor as a tool, not as a way to produce massive quantities of work – though yes, that is the idea behind it – you can expand your skill by leaps and bounds; also you could discover you have a knack for writing a genre you never would have considered writing in before. +One final reason Survivor is appealing to me, is the fact that I can enter and track my progress in submissions for the year. The score card that is given on the Survivor Contest Sub-forum is an excellent tool. It keeps the stories divided, so I can find my work for the years I've entered and say – ""Hey, I did that,"" (even if I have an off year). +I hope if you are competing in Survivor this year, that you enjoy it for the experience it allows in regards to stretching your imagination and for it making you accountable for the goals you set. I know, I'm having a lot of fun seeing my mini-goals completed, and I look forward to the end of the year, when I can see how close I was to getting all my goals accomplished. +Win – lose – or draw – it's how you play the game for you – not anyone else. Have fun!" +822,SusanJillParker's How to List #01,SusanJillParker,How To,2014-06-22,2014-06-22,2022-01-04 08:39:16,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/susanjillparkers-how-to-list-01,How to list of advice for everyday life: How to buy a car.,['Buying A Car'],4.33,"My how to list of advice for the everyday things in life: How to buy a car? +SusanJillParker's How to advice #1: How to buy a car? +Whether buying a car, a van, or a truck, most people think they know how to buy a motor vehicle, especially men. As impulsive as women are when buying shoes and clothes, men are impulsive when plunking down lots of money for a car, van, or truck. Men are the worst when it comes to buying anything that's sold by a salesperson. Right behind women, men are the ones most taken advantage of when buying a car, van, or truck. With this How To story applicable to not only cars but also to vans and trucks but, for the purpose of this How To story, let's just concentrate on cars. +Did you get that? Right behind women, men are the ones most taken advantage of when buying a car. Ergo, no matter if you're a man or a woman buying a car, the dreaded car salesperson will get the better of you. Unless they've worked in automobile sales themselves, I just have one word to say to those men who think they know enough about cars to get the best deal when buying a car from a professional car salesperson. +""Ha!"" Allow me to reiterate my one word of disbelief that most men are armed with enough information to get the best possible deal when buying a car, new or used. ""Ha!"" There I feel better now. +* * * * * +Whether buying a used car or a new car, everyone wants to get the best deal by haggling a fair price. Yet so very few of us get a good enough price for us to brag that we were even treated fairly never mind received a good purchase price when buying our beloved automobile. +""Wow! Nice car. How'd you get such a great deal on that car?"" Mike looked at his friend with envy. +""Easy. I made them an offer they couldn't refuse,"" said Jim proudly while puffing out his chest and beaming his friend a feigned smile. +Mike rolled his eyes and sighed while looking at his friend with a jaundiced eye. +""So you paid the full sticker price?"" +As if he had been held a prisoner of war captured by the enemy and mercilessly interrogated, glad to have escaped with his life, Jim looked at his friend with a face full of fear. +""Yeah, I did,"" said Jim sadly while wringing his hands and looking rejected and despondent. ""I just wanted to go home and the only way they'd let me leave is if I signed the purchase agreement."" +* * * * * +Listen, unless we were born beneath a tent in Morocco and ride a camel through the desert, or are Donald Trump, Warren Buffett, or one of the Koch brothers, most people don't know how to haggle a good deal. Most of us truly believe we're getting a good value when buying something from eBay at a super low price only to find that it's a knockoff made in China or from Amazon with free shipping. Sorry but that's the cold truth. In the way we all distrust lawyers, all people are leery of salespeople, especially car salespeople and for good reason. Most people will do anything to avoid a salesman, just ask any door- to-door salesman. +""Wait. Just give me a minute of your time,"" said Joe with a hurt look. ""I don't understand why you're avoiding me."" +""Duh? Because you're a salesman,"" said Betty with attitude while rolling her eyes and sighing. +""But you're my wife,"" said Joe. +As soon as we walk through those big, shiny, glass doors at a new car dealer, we're all at the mercy of one of the Devil's disciples. The one place where many of us are the most vulnerably uncomfortable, a new car dealership or a used car lot, this is their wheelhouse and our downfall. Forget about in God we trust because the only thing that a car salesperson trusts is making a sale and getting the most of your almighty dollars. He or she has been groomed, trained, and coached by the best to take every last dollar you have and/or will have over the next 4 to 7 years when financing a car that should have cost you thousands of dollars less instead of thousands of dollars more. +""Welcome to Hell."" As a warning, they should have that sign over the door of a new car dealership of a photo of a fisherman landing a big fish, you sucker. Key the music. To quote the Eagles by using a line from the Hotel California lyrics, ""You can check-out at any time you'd like but you can never leave."" That is until you bought a car. Good luck because you're going to need it. +* * * * * +To an auto salesperson's credit, if they weren't good at their job, they wouldn't have a job. To your dismay, if auto salespeople weren't good at their jobs, you'd have a nice car at a great place but the dealership would be out of business. The measure of their success is valued by the profits they make for the dealership. Car salespeople are just as good as the number of cars they sell at profits high enough to give them bonuses. +Being that they sell cars every day, all day, as part of their job, they're professional at selling cars. You, on the other hand, being that you happen along to buy a car every five to twelve years, are not a professional at buying a car. Sorry to give you a reality check but you're an amateur in comparison to a professional automotive salesperson. Think about that while being realistic in what kind of fair deal you'll be able to negotiate and receive. Allow me to refer back to my one word statement of your chance of getting a fair deal. +""Ha!"" +What chance do you possible have of getting a good deal when going up against a professional car salesperson? Not a chance. You'd have a better chance of winning a fight when stepping in a ring with Mike Tyson with one hand tied behind his back. Either way, not giving you very good odds, I'd bet on Tyson and take that bet that you'd lose horribly. +""Beating him to a pulp with one hand tied behind his back, Mike Tyson growled at the camera while biting off the man's ear."" +See? What did I tell you? The shocking truth is just as you don't stand a chance in the squared circle with Mike Tyson, you don't stand much of a chance of getting a good deal when buying a car whether new or used. When walking in a car dealership, do yourself a favor to save yourself time, trouble, and aggravation. Just empty your pockets, give the car salesperson all the money you have and beg them to throw in free mud flaps and a plastic coffee mug with the car's logo. That's as good of a deal as most folks will get. +Yet, don't give up hope. Stay positive. Remain confident. Be happy. Put that blank, signed check away. Matter of fact, unless you plan on giving that blank, signed check to Joel Osteen, tear it up. Rip it to shreds and throw it away because you won't be needing it. Not as long as I'm in charge of helping you to buy that new car or truck. +If you follow some of my helpful tips, you'll get a better deal when buying that car than you would had you not read this how to story. I know how to get the best deal when buying a car. I know how you'll receive a fair price. I know the information you'll need so that you're not taken, laughed at, and ridiculed as soon as you walk out that dealership door. +* * * * * +First of all, lemme ask you this. Why buy a new car? Why not buy a used car? With used cars having already depreciated in value, used cars are much cheaper. With all the bugs out of them, used cars are a much better deal than buying a new car. Right? What do you think? Or unable to see yourself in a used car that someone else has already used and abused, you'd rather buy new car than used car so that you can watch that odometer click from ten miles to one hundred thousand. I get that. I do and I don't blame you for wanting to buy a brand, shiny new car. +Sometimes with not much of a difference in price between the two, unless you're buying a real shitbox, buying a used car can be just as costly as buying a new car. Used car loans have much shorter lengths of duration than new car loans. Buying a used car may actually cost you more a month than a new car, albeit for a shorter amount of time. Where most banks will give you 4 years to pay your used car, nearly all dealerships will give you up to 7 years to pay your new car. +Moreover, unless you're dealing with a credit union, the interest rates on used cars are much higher than on new cars. Saving you thousands of dollars in interest charges, some new cars have zero interest rates, something that a used car doesn't offer. For you to truly compare buying a used car versus a used car, you'd have to factor in the additional amount of interest you'd have to pay for the used car over the new car. Suddenly that new car is looking more attractive. +When buying a used car, you risk the horror of having to make costly repairs within a short time of ownership. Unless you have a trusted family member who's a mechanic, just as you're dealing with the Devil when buying a car at the dealership, you're sometimes dealing with Satan's son when having to deal with an auto mechanic. Yet, just as not all automotive salespeople are liars, not all automotive mechanics are thieves. Hard to believe but that's a true statement. +I read that of a used car salesman in Omaha Nebraska who's as honest as the day is long. He'd never tell you something that wasn't true nor would he ever take a dime that wasn't earned and/or due him. He's unemployed and unemployable, of course, but he's an honest man. There's also a mechanic who lives on an island in the Pacific who's never cheated anyone with a car repair. Granted, they don't have any cars on the island, nonetheless his record still stands as an auto mechanic who cheated anyone. +""Being that I just bought this car used, I'd like you to see what else is wrong with it. So, how much do you think it will cost me for you to look the car over, change my oil, put air in the tires, and replace my windshield wipers?"" +""Well, I won't be able to tell what it will cost until I look under the hood,"" said Clem removing his greasy cap and wiping his forehead with a dirty rag. ""Maybe you should go ahead and start applying for that second mortgage now. Let's hope you bought a good used car and haven't been taken,"" said the mechanic as if to say in the way you'll be taken by me. Unless you know the person selling the used car and/or if you're a mechanic who knows a lot about cars and can fix anything wrong with the car you're buying, forget about buying a used car. Unless you have someone to take with you who is skilled at picking a good, used car over a lemon, buying a used car for you is off the table. Buying a used car is akin to buying a Chinese accordion over an Italian accordion. Yes, of course, I'm well aware that I supported Chinese accordions in my essay, Chinese Piano Accordions Good or Bad, but in the end, you get what you pay for, most times, especially when it comes to buying a used car versus a new car. +Even if your brother-in-law, your brother, and/or your mother works for a used car lot and promises to give you the best deal, forget about it! Do not buy a used car unless you know exactly what it is you are buying and unless you have no other alternative than to buy a used car instead of spending the extra money to buy a new car. Where buying a new car is mostly a sure bet when it comes to quality, dependability, and reliability, buying a used car is a crap shoot. +""Mom? How could you do that to me? How could you sell me that lemon of a car for twice what it's worth?"" +* * * * * +Growing up with four much older brothers who read every car magazine, Automobile, Car and Driver, Motor Trend, Road & Track, and Autoweek, and talked endlessly about cars, and who all ended up working for Ford and GM, I know a lot about cars. Only, not very mechanically inclined, I don't know how to fix cars, an enigma and oxymoronic to other women, I just know a lot about cars. Besides, even though you'd love to see me doing just that, I'm not about to crawl under a car while wearing a short skirt. Besides, I don't like getting my fingernails broken and/or dirty. Instead of knowing how to fix them, which I never had any interest in learning, I just know how to buy them. +I know which automobiles are good and which ones are bad. Any model of Lexus or Subaru immediately come mind as bulletproof cars and the Ford Taurus and Ford Explorer immediately come to mind as the most unreliable. Having been to enough car shows with my brothers and perused enough of their automotive magazines, unlike most women, I can tell the make and model of a car just by seeing a quick glimpse of a headlight or a taillight. A talent that comes in handy when in a hit and run accident, I recognize a person's car before I recognize the person. +Knowledgeable enough about makes and models, I used to be able to match the car with the man just by looking at him, very helpful when someone was trying to pick me up in a bar or at club. Unless the person was still driving some relic from AMC, American Motors Company, a Lark from Studebaker, or a Dodge Dart, able to guess the make and model of someone's car was a fun game to play at a cocktail party. More often than not, I was right. More often than not, I was in the ballpark in guessing a Toyota Camry instead of a Honda Accord. +""Wow, that's amazing Susan that you guessed that I had a Toyota Camry. Interestingly and coincidentally enough, I almost bought the Camry but my brother said he could get me a better deal buying a Honda Accord from him at the Honda dealership,"" he said with sucker written all over his face. ""Glad that my brother helped me to buy the car, I didn't pay a dollar over list price."" +* * * * * +So shall we begin with me giving you my two cents worth of advice on how to buy a car? Only, please keep in mind that this is SusanJillParker's How to List on Literotica and not Heloise's how to list in Good Housekeeping. This is my erotic laced version of how to buy a new car. +Unless you can't afford it or don't have the credit to buy new, it's always better to buy a new car instead of a used car. I know I'm going against convention with those people who'd never buy a new car, even if they could afford it, but in the long run, so long as you drive the car until the car is dead, buying a new car is always the better deal. I know, I know, who can afford a new car when so many of us are still unemployed or underemployed and so few of us can't even afford a used car never mind a new car? Yet, if you have the money and the good credit score to do so, when buying a new car, you'll have the peace of mind of a new car warranty. +Still, even those who have the money and the good credit score would rather buy a one or two year old used car with low mileage. Put off by the high price, they'd rather buy a car that has already depreciated somewhat in value for them to get a better deal or so they think and truly believe. Yet, for those of you who can afford a new car but cheap out by buying a used car, lemme ask you this. +When you can afford to buy a brand new car, when you can choose not only the make and model but also the interior and exterior color and customized your car by buying the options that you'd prefer having, why would you buy a used car? Further and to be blunt, if I may, why would you buy a used car that the driver's seat has already been farted on? +""Eww! Gross!"" +Yeah, think about that. A driver's seat that's already been farted on and is imbedded with the aromatic residue of smelly farts is, actually, a game changer that even Febreze can't make go away. Shame on you for even thinking about buying a used car instead of buying a new car. I'm embarrassed to know you and I'd never ride in your car, a car with already farted on seats. That's just disgusting. That's just nasty. +""I don't understand George,"" said Mary. ""I thought we decided that we were buying a used car instead of a new car."" +""Well, I was going to do that but, something I never thought of before, Susan Jill Parker wrote in her SusanJillParker's how buy a new car list that used cars have driver's seats that have already been farted on,"" said George while giving his wife a grave look. +""Oh, dear,"" said Mary. ""I can't even imagined sitting on seats that have already been farted on. Maybe we'd be better off selling the family farm, along with the tractor, to buy a new car instead of a used one."" +Okay, now that I have your attention, generally, as long as you buy a good new car that's not a lemon, with no money out of your pocket other than your monthly payment, you'll be without a repair bill for years. Other than an oil changes and, perhaps, new tires, air fresheners, wiper blades, car washes, license, registration, inspection fees, insurance, and gas for the life of the car, yep, that's right, a new car won't cost you another penny. Truth be told, owning a car whether new or used is expensive. Truth be told, most people in the car market don't know enough about cars to buy a good, reliable used car. Even knowledgeable car people have been taken when buying a used car. +""Jimmy, I know the car looks a little like a Mercedes by its front grille and its XG350 nomenclature on the back but this isn't a Mercedes. It's a Hyundai,"" said Tommy laughing at his friend's gullibility. ""I can't believe the car salesperson told you that you were buying a Mercedes. Moreover, I can't believe you really thought that this was a Mercedes and not a Hyundai. How can you be so stupid to be so taken?"" +""Now that I remember, he may have said that it looked a lot like a Mercedes from the distance of a couple of blocks when parked on a dark street at night away from the streetlight. I don't know. I was so confused and after being there for five hours with them triple teaming me with the sales manager and the finance manager, I just wanted to go home."" +* * * * * +Most people can't tell if the used car they're considering buying has been in a flood or was in a bad accident and was totaled. Unless there's obvious, visible damage, most times, I can't tell a good used car from a bad used car that won't last one day past the 90 day warranty, that is if you're lucky to get any warranty on a used car. Buying a used car is a gamble and buying a new car is less of a gamble. Yet, you get what you pay for couldn't be any truer than when buying a car. +Moreover, food for fodder, if the car was in an accident and repaired, do the airbags still work? I bet you never thought of that. What about the built-in crumple zones? Are they still in place? The crumple zones are designed into a car by a manufacturer to scrub off energy when you're in an accident before that energy reaches you in the passenger compartment. +Repair shops routinely use inferior parts and components that aren't from the manufacturer to save money without telling the customer that they aren't original parts. Made in China, some shops even use airbags that don't work. No doubt, if you should have a crash, you'd be the first test dummy, dummy, to discover that you don't have working airbags. Buying a used car is a crap shoot and a risky gamble that may even be deadly. Then, again, buying a new car is a crap shoot and a risky gamble that may be deadly too, as in the case of General Motors recall of Chevy Cobalts and Toyotas recall of Camrys. +Yet, as with a new car, unless your Aunt Hilda is selling her twenty-year-old Buick with 30,000 original miles, the best way to buy a used car is to bite the bullet and buy the car from a dealer. Buying from a private party may be cheaper but unless you know the car and the person, it's still a big gamble and a hard lesson to learn should you suddenly need major repairs just to pass inspection. Buyer beware couldn't be any truer than when buying a used car. With most private party used car sales sold as is, you won't have a warranty to fall back on should your used car need costly servicing. +Buying a used car from a new car dealer may include a limited warranty, which is always good and much better than having no warranty at all. Moreover, as far as I know, unless that policy has changed, new car dealers don't sell used cars with more than 60,000 original miles on them. Usually those high mileage cars are sold at auction. If you can't afford a new car, the best place to buy a used car is from a new car dealer. You'll pay more but if you know your facts and haggle, you'll pay less than someone else who is not armed with the information that they need to make an informed purchase. +Buyer beware, just as the used car salesman is looking to sell you the car at the higher price while you're looking to buy the car at the lower price, by sticking to your guns, you'll find an acceptable price somewhere in the middle. If you both can agree at a price somewhere in the middle, you may get yourself a decent deal on a good used car. Only, always be ready to walk away from the deal and never tell a salesman how much you have to spend. Because, low and behold, coincidentally, based on your confessed budget, that used car that would have cost you one thousand dollars less suddenly cost you one thousand dollars more. +* * * * * +So now that I convinced you to buy a new car instead of a used car, shall we get started? The best way to buy a new car is to order the car from the dealer. That's right, with you ordering a made for you sub sandwich at Subway, why wouldn't you special order the car? Yet, only 5% of those people buying a new car special order the car. Leaving it up the car salesperson to find them a car, a more startling number is that 95% of those people buying a new car buy the car off of the dealers' lot. +""Wow!"" +Even though the salesman will swear up and down that it's cheaper to buy the car off of the lot, trust me, it isn't. You'll get a better price if you special order the car. Lot cars have been sitting there for months collecting dust and finance fees passed from the manufacturer to the dealer and that will invariably and eventually be passed on to you, the consumer. +The dealer didn't sell those cars because no one wants them, especially at their now inflated, finance fee prices. Car salespeople are eager to sell lot cars because, tied into their commissioned quotas, their incentives, and their bonuses, the dealership has been paying finance fees on lot cars for months. Plain and simple, lot cars are pure added overhead. Special order cars don't cost the dealership anything other than a number in their allocation amount of vehicles that the manufacturer decides to give which dealer depending on their traffic and history of selling cars. +So, lemme ask you this. If special order vehicles don't cost the dealership anything other and a number in their allocation, why wouldn't a dealership encourage buyers to buy special order vehicles? How come a dealer's business isn't made up of 95% special order vehicles instead of only 5%? That's an easy question to answer. Because dealers and car salespeople, wheeling and dealing, make more on lot cars than they do on special ordering you a car. More proof that ordering a vehicle is cheaper than buying one off of the dealer's lot. +There are bonuses and special sales incentives attached to lot cars that aren't attached to special order cars. There may even be large incentives given from the manufacturer to the dealer to motivate them to sell their old inventory at larger profits than they'd earn special ordering a car for you. These manufacturer driven incentives may or may not be passed on to the consumer. Unless the manufacturer sweetens the deal by giving dealers incentives to sell their old inventory to make room for the new model of cars, there's no way they're going to give that sitting on the lot car away now when it's already cost them money. The best way to get the best deal on a new car is to bypass the lot car games that salespeople must play and to order the car from the manufacturer. +By ordering the car, as if buying the car from the dealer on consignment, you're circumventing the dealer and dealing directly with the manufacturer. Instead of buying the car that the car salesperson hopes to sell you, you're buying the exact car that you want. You get to pick the exterior and interior color, along with the exact options that will make your car stand out from every other car parked in the parking lot. The really good colors and options are those colors and options that aren't available on lot cars and that are only available when special ordering your car. +""Where's my car? With all of these cars looking alike, I can never find my car,"" said Ralph joking with his wife, Camille. +""That's funny Ralph. Your car is the orange Mini Cooper with black and white checkerboard roof, the checkerboard rearview mirrors, and the black racing,"" said Camille making a sour face. ""We should have bought a Camry or a Honda like all of our friends. For what you paid for that car, we could have bought a loaded Buick."" +* * * * * +Granted, you may have to wait eight weeks for the American manufacturer to make your car but what's waiting eight weeks in the scheme of things when you'll have the car that was especially made for you for years? Some manufacturers even sweeten the deal when you order a car directly from them. Corvette offers a tour of their factory in Bowling Green, Kentucky where you can watch them build your car. An extra cost option, but well worth it to some Corvette buyers, they even invite you on the assembly room floor where you can help to build the engine. +Another extra cost item but well worth it to some, at the end of the production line, when picking up your car, they'll even give you a detail photo album of your car making its way through the assembly line. If you're a Corvette collector, an aficionado, or even just a fan of the Corvette, one who's lucky enough to afford such a fine automobile, this is the package that you'd want. Rather than buying a Corvette from a dealer that's been sitting on the lot in the color that you didn't want, you could buy a special Corvette by ordering it. Oh, and by the way, as your incentive bonus to order the car, it's cheaper to special order your new car than it is to buy the car that you're settling for off of the dealer's lot. Salespeople will tell you just the opposite that you're getting a better deal by buying a lot car but you're not. +""Yeah, it's nice, only I wish it was red with a white interior or blue with a blue interior."" +* * * * * +Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volvo, Porsche, Maserati, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bentley, and Rolls Royce, all offer European delivery programs with special travel deals where they'll pay your airfare, pick you up at the airport, rent you a hotel room for a day or two, and give you a tour of their factory. After it's assembled, they'll even invite you to drive your new car through Germany before they ship it to the states. Moreover manufacturers' will give you preferred discounts and free 14 day car insurance to extend your stay in their country while you drive your new car before they ship it home to you with shipping included in the price of the car. How's that for specialized treatment? +""Honey, let's stop and ask those nice, young men for directions,"" said Miriam, Walter's wife. +""Nice young men?"" He looked from his wife to leer back at the men. ""Judging them by their Nazi tattoos, they're skinheads,"" said Saul trying not to show his fear while slowing his new Mercedes to a stop. +""No their not. There's no more Nazis in Germany. Excuse me. Excuse me. My husband is lost,"" said Miriam holding up a map in front of her low, cut top that clearly showed her long line of cleavage along with the top of her big breasts. ""Can you help direct us?"" +""Directions?"" One man walked over to Miriam's open window while the other three eyed Saul as he eyed them. ""Are you Jewish?"" +The German man leaned down to give Saul an intimidating look through Miriam's open car window. +""Jewish? No, I'm not Jewish,"" said Saul. ""And so what if I was?"" Assuming his toughest bravado, he turned his attention away from that man to focus on the man's three friends to give him his best leer. +The man shrugged his disbelief that Saul and his wife weren't Jews. +""Why do Jews always feel the need to buy German cars instead of American cars?"" +Miriam gave the man a sexy smile. +""I told him to buy a Ford Mustang GT, but he wouldn't listen to me,"" said Miriam whispering so that Saul wouldn't hear her. +While Saul paid more attention to the other three men than he did to his wife, the man standing by Miriam's window stuck his hand behind Joan's upraised map, down her top, and inside of her bra to feel her ample breasts. He stuck his other hand up her short skirt and in between her legs. Moving her panty aside, she rubbed her clit while fingering her pussy. She gasped her delight when he fingered her nipples. With her concealed from her husband view behind her upraised roadmap, holding the map up higher, she unzipped him, pulled out his cock, and stroked him before taking him in her mouth to suck him. +With Saul intently listening to another one of the German men giving him directions on how to return to their hotel, Miriam sucked the cock of the other German man through her lowered car window. Unbeknownst to Saul that his wife had just given a stranger a blowjob, the man ejaculated in his wife's mouth just as Saul peeled rubber to make good his escape when the other two men approached his car in a menacing fashion. +""Wow,"" said Saul. ""How's that for performance?"" +""Amazing, truly amazing,"" said Miriam wiping a dribble of cum from her lip while swallowing the rest. +""What made them think we were Jewish?"" +""Maybe that Star of David that you wear around your neck was their clue,"" said Miriam relaxing back in her seat as if she was reveling in the afterglow of sex. +* * * * * +Even though you're making your best deal with the factory by taking advantage of a European delivery deal, the manufacturer will still ship the car to the dealer of your choice. There, as if you purchased the car from the dealership instead of the manufacturer, you'll sign the papers, pick up your new car, and drive it away. As a bonus, not only will you have vacationed in Germany but also you'll be buying your new car at a discounted price much lower than the price you'd pay the dealership after making your supposed, best deal. +The big difference in dealing with the manufacturer than with the dealer is there's no haggling. The manufacturer's price is already set and is always lower than what you'd buy the car for at the dealership level. When ordering the car directly from the factory instead of from the dealer, on average, you'll save an additional five to thirteen percent, depending on the make and model, than if you bought the car from the dealer. +In this age of falsely inflated, deep discounts, five to thirteen percent off may not sound like a lot when we're all used to buying clothes at 20% off, electronics at 40% off, and furniture at 50% off but when buying a $70,000 car, a five to nine percent discount translates to $3,500 to $9,100. The money saved is enough to more than pay for your extended vacation to Germany where, in the way that Saul gave his wife Miriam a memory of their trip, you could do that for your wife too. +The only downside to a European delivery program is that you must pay or arrange financing for your new car before the car is even built. Secondly, after the car is assembled, you'd have to wait six to fourteen weeks for you to receive your car from the factory. While making payments on a car that you don't yet have or putting out cash for a car that you're not receiving interest on your money, unless you have money to burn, European delivery programs aren't for the average blue collar worker. Yet, the program is ideally suited for those who can afford to wait for their special car. +""This is where Miriam asked Saul to stop to ask for directions,"" said Irene to her husband Steve. ""I'm sure of it,"" said Irene while imagining some, young German man feeling her tits and masturbating her while forcing her to suck in cock in the way that Miriam told her what happened to her. +""There's four men standing on the corner over there,"" said Steve obliviously. +Apparently, he didn't notice their Nazi tattoos or their skinheads. +""Yes, let's asked them. Yoho,"" said Irene. ""Can give me your erection, um, I mean, can you give us directions?"" +Just as Irene hoped it would happen, one man came over to her passenger side window and stuck his hand down her low cut braless top to feel her ample breasts while fingering her nipples. Then, with her not wearing any panties in anticipation of being sexually assaulted, with Irene hanging out her window and blocking her husband's view with her map, she sucked his cock in the way that Miriam had sucked a different young man's cock. +""Get lost,"" said the men to Steve after fruitlessly trying to talk to them in incoherent German and after Irene had just finished sucking off the man still standing by her car window. +In the way that Saul had done, Steve peeled rubber with his brand, new BMW. +""Wow! That was exciting,"" said Steve admiring his car's performance. +""I'll say,"" said Irene swallowing the man's cum in a gulp when her husband floored the gas. +* * * * * +Another invaluable tip when buying a car, whether buying a car used or new, is not to trade-in your old car. You are much better off selling your old vehicle than trading it in to the dealer. Instead of negotiating the price of the car from the list price, less a customary discount of 5 to 9 percent. As soon as a car salesperson knows you're trading in your car, the negotiations start from the list price less your trade-in without him or her mentioning about giving you a 5 to 9 percent, off the top discount. Unless you ask and insist on receiving a discounted price, you lose the discount you would have received had you walked in with a clean deal. Unless the car is a special rare car, such as the Ford GT40's back in 2004-2006, no one pays list price for a new car. +Whether selling you a new vehicle or selling your used vehicle, dealers need to make a profit and they will give you much less than you can sell your vehicle to a private party. Why allow the dealer to make money off of your old vehicle when you can pocket that money and put it towards your new or used car yourself? Just make sure that when selling your old car that you state that you are selling your car as is with no warranties expressed or implied. +Also, after you make the best deal for your new car, the car salesman will direct you to their money man, the finance guy. He'll try to sell you everything from floor mats to burglar alarms to etched, vehicle ID numbered glass, to special paint applications, to tire and wheel insurance, and to extended warranties, none of which you need. Stick to your guns and don't buy anything. As if saying no to drugs, if you're going to say anything at all, say no. Just keep on saying no. No matter how good the deal seems to you, no matter how much you want to go home, and no matter how much you need to pee, just say no to everything that he wants you to buy. Okay? Nod your head up and down so that I know you understand. +""No, just say no."" +My last bit of advice when buying a new car is to take care of it. Drive it as if you're driving someone else's borrowed car. Be careful going over bumps, ruts, and potholes. Do all of the preventative maintenance. Never smoke, eat, or drink in your car. Forget about washing it and waxing it yourself, unless that's something you love doing, take it to a professional and have it detailed twice a year. The idea is that by taking care of your car, your car will take care of you because the way for you to make the most of the extra money you spent buying a brand new car instead of a used car is to keep your new car until it dies or until it's no longer practical to keep it. Depending upon you're mileage, most cars are good for 10 to 15 years. + _To be continued..._" +823,Sweaty Palm,anubiis,How To,2004-08-28,2004-08-28,2022-01-04 08:39:18,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/sweaty-palm,Enjoy Literotica tales on the go.,[''],3.43,"For all you Literotica PalmOS PDA users out there who want to take their favorite stories with them on extended trips, puruse while idling in the waiting room, or liven up a boring bus or train ride to work, here's how: +Step 1.

Hidden like camouflaged hunters in the dense underbrush, venues of questionable morality — whether they be churches, or sex sheds — are ubiquitous. +Rifle through the glossy, substantial pages of your local adult rag, and you're bound to uncover advertisements for a few. Better yet, commence Internet investigation for these nearly invisible prey. Don't be stupefied to discover one three blocks from your house. +You won't find these locales showcased beside the latest from the Nordstrom Rack. Jack Nicholson will pose in Playboy, before screw shacks are accepted in mainstream society. +Forbidden fruit, swing clubs are modern-day oases for the parched traveler succumbing to the arid, lifeless drone of contemporary existence. Hotter than crankin' the heat on a summer day in the desert, play palaces are fuel for fantasy. Males will woolgather about them in the dark, while strengthening their wrists, but few will enter their inner sanctum. +""What does a typical swing shack look like?"" you query. +There's no standard answer to that, as all sex shanties are different. Some are private homes, while others are actual places of business. Many allow overt nudity, and a multitude have a dress code. There are sleazy locales in sleazy parts of town, and there are upscale venues in opulent areas. +Hence, when it comes to dissolute domiciles, we're talkin' variety. +Most porn palaces will probably have at least a TV or two playing XXX flicks. You're likely to encounter a hot tub, or tubs, and ― on occasion ― a pool. Beds ― either in public rooms, or private ― are a common feature. Some locales have lockers, where customers can store their clothes; others don't. +Dark lighting, and black lights, aren't uncommon. Condom machines, theater screens, and the occasional bar are also amenities you may come across — so to speak. +""So, how do I find swing clubs near me?"" +As with so much information these days, details and locations of screw shacks can be uncovered online. I'd bequeath specific Web addresses, but such isn't permissible on Literotica. Should you be interested, though, drop me a message, and I'll impart the cache of resources I've accumulated over the decades. +A thorough Google search will provide you the initial information you need to get started. +Whenever possible, call the location you plan to visit, in order to glean as many details about it as you can. Typical questions solo men should ask would be: +1) Are single males allowed? +2) What's the dress code? +3) May customers wander around nude, and stroke themselves? +Sounds like a bizarre query, but should your best attribute be your erection, that's something you'll wanna show off. +4) What's the entrance fee? +This will often vary from weekdays to weekends; from afternoons to evenings. Perpetually busy times will be more expensive. +5) What days/nights is the venue open, and what are their hours? +Since so many people have weekends off, that's when they tend to play. Mondays at these locales may be far less expensive, but if nobody's present, that does you no good. +This asserted, you don't wanna frequent an establishment that's so overpriced on the weekends it leaves you insolvent. +Steer clear of cum clubs with a dress code.

""No way your New World Order ass is gonna take me to the FEMA camps!"" +As the whip-wielding whore and I cautiously approached each other, I understood this wasn't really Hillary Clinton, but rather her doppelganger. +Dropping my pants, and brandishing my own weapon, I questioned, ""Has anyone ever told you look like—?"" +""Don't say it,"" she interrupted.

Perhaps you have always wanted to do so, but didn't know how to broach the subject with your spouse or significant other? Maybe you're just curious about what goes on in ""one of those places"". Perhaps this (true) story will help to lift the curtain and let you glance into the erotic world of an ""adult couples' club"" and see if it might be for you and the one you love._ +A few months ago, ""Patty"" (name changed) and I would never have even thought about going to a swingers' club. After all, we don't think of ourselves as swingers. We don't swap partners and have no intention of ever doing so. However, we DO enjoy all things erotic and recently discovered how immensely stimulating it is to make love in the same room as another couple watching them as they watch us. +After reading a story posted at literotica.com by bearlee titled ""Swinging: Online and Off"" (which we highly recommend) we posted a Profile at a swingers' web site and met up with a couple who, like us, are into what's called ""soft swing"". That phrase is open to various definitions, but essentially means you do NOT swap partners for sexual intercourse. They suggested we join a club in our city that they very much enjoyed and thought that we would, too. What follows is something of an observational report of our second visit to the club. If you (or your spouse) are hesitant to visit a similar establishment, perhaps you will find this helpful. At the end, we include some comments that you could find helpful. +# # # +On Saturday, we made our second visit to a place described as ""a very private club"" to meet a couple who'd introduced us to the place for our first visit a few weeks back. Like us, they're not true swingers, but enjoy adult fun in an erotic, stimulating environment. This club certainly provides that! No liquor is available (due to a local ordinance), but members are welcome to bring coolers. Set-ups, ice buckets, etc are provided free of charge by the club. The place resembles a large, sophisticated big-city night club... only with erotic extras. As on our first visit, we were impressed by the easy-going, non-threatening atmosphere... +We found our friends at a small table near the pulsing lights and throbbing beat of the dance floor. We settled back to take in all the eye-candy. There are certainly a lot of ""beautiful people"" in this place. However, it is encouraging to find so many ""less-than-gorgeous"" couples who, nonetheless, are there to experience some erotic fun. In fact, it was apparent that most of the couples would be considered ""ordinary folks"" and there was absolutely no feeling that this place was solely for Ken and Barbie... +It was crowded already by 8:00 p.m. and we looked around at the throng. One woman, perhaps in her early 30's was dressed only in a black micro miniskirt and heels (she'd had a tie-front white blouse on for about 15 minutes when she first arrived but shed that once she got on to the dance floor) and we surmised that she had recently had a boob job as she was intent on showing off her new breasts to everyone. In fairness they *were* spectacular; high and round with astonishingly long, tapered nipples. I'd first caught sight of her by following the gaze of the two couples at the next table. I actually said to them, ""Should I move back to avoid obstructing your view?!"" No need; she wafted slowly by our table to give us an ""up close and personal"" display... +Two women came in holding hands. One was tall and quite manly wearing a black shirt and slacks; the girlfriend was slim and petite, wearing a frilly white blouse and 'schoolgirl' plaid mini. They stood for a while, looking around, then disappeared into the crowd... +The dance floor was lively. We recognized one stocky woman from our previous visit. As before, she was dancing alone at the edge of the floor in front of (presumably) her husband. She was naked from the waist up, dancing for his pleasure. She continued for most of the night. We noticed he never danced with her; just watched her and watched the others who were watching her, too... +Two women got into the gogo dancer's cage and slowly caressed and stripped each other, swaying to the music and passing each garment out through the bars to their watching male partners... +We went for a walk around the club, skirting the dance floor (where a redhead in a spangled thong was pole dancing beside the DJ booth) and entered a side lounge. There is a small darkened area beyond that where ""singles"" are allowed to go in and play (the main play rooms are solely for couples who are identified by a stamped hand and singles accompanied by couples who have invited them to join them). We glanced through the net curtain into the ""singles"" area as we waited for our friends to catch up with us. A woman was seated on a padded bench between two men each of whom was sucking one of her breasts. When we looked in again a few minutes later, she was leaning over to suck one of the men while manually stimulating the other... +We climbed the rather treacherous winding antique staircase to the upper floor, away from the noise and lights of the dance floor area. Upstairs, there is a fair-sized lounge-bar area with subdued lighting and large leather sofas arranged around a fireplace (thankfully not lighted on this hot evening). We joined several couples who were looking through a doorway into one of the small side rooms. Inside the room, four naked couples were approaching the climax of their love- making session. There are two sofas and an overstuffed armchair in this room. In the dim, soft light we could see that there was a couple on each of the sofas. In each case, a man was seated, leaning back, thrusting up into a woman who was astride him, bouncing up and down cowgirl- style. Another woman was kneeling in front of the easy chair, head pressed against the seat while her partner rammed into her from behind. On the floor beside them, another couple were also screwing doggie style. As the girl neared her climax she reached out to the woman leaning on the chair and caressed her ass that jiggled with every hard thrust from the man who taking her from behind. All we could hear was the sound of flesh slapping on moist flesh and the moans of eight people in various stages of orgasm. We and the other ""watchers"" were caressing our partners as we viewed the scene in front of us. Finally the couples broke apart, the girls kissing and intimately touching each other as they cleaned up and got dressed... +Patty and I took their place in the room. We played for a little while, and watched some of the other couples who came in with us but decided to explore some of the rooms before getting too heavy... +There were several couples now seated in the area just outside that playroom. We noticed a couple we had seen earlier downstairs. She was kneeling in front of a man, sucking his cock, while hubby watched, masturbating... +Walking through the lounge area (where the action was getting quite heavy) we went into one of the back playrooms. Again we started to play, and two couples followed us in. No problem; we figured they were there for the same reason we were. However, after about five minutes of listening to them (loudly) discussing their kids' school activities and soccer camp (and doing nothing else) it became a real turn-off so we dressed and went on our way... +We ran into our friends again. As we chatted and decided where to go, we noticed the lesbian couple we'd seen earlier. The larger, more masculine one was cradling the head of the sweet little ""schoolgirl"" one ... who was having her pussy eaten by a man(!) kneeling in front of her. We were surprised when, a few minutes later, the man raised his head and asked them a question. They looked at each other then nodded. Still kneeling, he pushed her slim legs up for her girlfriend to hold. Although we were behind him, it then became apparent he was fucking the girl with long slow strokes while the two girls kissed, moaning into each others mouths... +We'd been hoping to find a space with our friends where we could play beside each other. However, they stopped to talk to another couple, and Patty pulled me into a somewhat quieter room, saying she was so hot she just couldn't wait. In this room, a woman was astride her partner in a chair, rising and falling energetically on his cock. On one side of a sofa facing them, a man was leaning back while a woman knelt in front of him sucking him off. Patty quickly stripped off and sat on the sofa beside them, asking me to kneel in front of her and eat her pussy. She quickly became very aroused, and was unaware that she was rhythmically bumping against the couple next to us. Patty came several times and her moans and cries helped spur on the couple across the room who, judging by the rapid slap-slap-slap and the sudden moans, were going over the top together. +Patty switched placed with me and I sat on the sofa. The man next to me was obviously getting close and his lady partner was trying to steal sideways glances at us as she bobbed up and down. As Patty started sucking me, I noticed that a new couple had entered the room. Unlike most of the women there, this one was dressed very conservatively in a knee-length blue skirt and a white linen jacket trimmed in blue. They had taken over the easy chair to my right, and she had unzipped her partner's pants and was slowly sucking his erection. I was becoming increasingly aroused at the sights and sounds either side (and directly in front) of me and knew I couldn't last much longer. At this point, the primly-dressed woman to my right stood up and pulled up her skirt. Only a couple of feet in front of me, at eye-level, she pulled aside her plain beige panties and settled down, legs spread, impaling herself on his cock while he reached around to unbutton her jacket and fondle her breasts. All evening I'd been surrounded by women wearing little more than heels and thongs, but for some reason, this image was the one that put me over the edge into a shattering climax, just as the man on the sofa was cumming into his partner's mouth... +We wandered back (on shaky legs) into the noisy dance floor area, which had heated up considerably. Two totally naked women were dancing together, if you could call it that, and there were several groups of semi-naked people 'sandwiching' each other and swaying to the music. We rejoined our friends at our table. They confessed that they had actually 'got it on' right there at the table (a practice officially frowned on by management, but pretty much overlooked from what we could see) with her sitting on his lap as she was wearing a black lace (crotchless) cat-suit under a mini-skirt which made undressing unnecessary... +It was heading for 2:00 a.m. which is the official closing time and we were getting ready to leave. A (very) large woman approached our table with her voluminous bare bosom wobbling freely. She said something to our friends, then grabbed the backs of their heads pulling them to her massive chest. They had little choice but to do what she obviously wanted and suck on her big nipples! We assumed our friends knew her, but after the woman left they told us they'd never seen her before but didn't quite know how to refuse her titty-sucking request! Ah well... +We went out into the hot night (early morning) air and the valet brought our car up. Even though we were tired, we were still incredibly aroused from the evening, and immediately went home and made love again. Then again first thing in the morning. +# # # +Some additional thoughts... + ***** This was the only swingers' club we have visited so it would be unreasonable to assume all such clubs are of the same standard. According to our friends, there is another similar club in town, but both felt it was sleazier and did not separate single males from the couples, resulting in some unwanted attention. Our advice: if at all possible find out which clubs are right for you (if there is more than one to choose from). How? See if the club has a web site and get a ""feel"" for its ambience from that. Of course, the best recommendation is word-of-mouth if you happen to meet someone who is familiar with swingers' clubs. As a reminder, we posted a Profile on a swingers' web site and met up with a couple who introduced us to ""our"" club. + ***** The above description might give you the impression of a massive bacchanalian orgy. This really wasn't the case. There were about 300 people there that night. We doubt that more that 25% actually indulged in sexual acts on the premises. Most were there to enjoy the erotic atmosphere, possibly as a stimulation to later activity. There was no pressure of any kind to participate in any type of sexual act. +=> On a related point, it seemed to us that the majority of couples who DID engage in some kind of sexual activity did so with their own partner, albeit in the presence of other couples. Doubtless there were couples who traded partners, but from our limited perspective this wasn't the norm. +=> In this particular club, the management kept a discreet eye out for anyone (usually a single male) who might become a pest. In fact, when we joined we had to take an obligatory tour of the club with one of the management team, ostensibly to show us the facilities, but also to point out that obnoxious or predatory behavior would result in being quietly ejected and barred. We found that reassuring. +=> Yes, you probably WILL meet someone you know if you go to a swinger's club in or close to your own town. If it is obvious you've seen (and recognized) each other, say hello and move on. This is truly a ""Mexican stand-off""! Neither of you is really likely to ""out"" the other when you think about it. (And yes, Patty ran into her supervisor's boss and his wife on our second visit. On Monday morning at work, neither mentioned it... and never will.) Our advice: Don't worry about it. +=> How will this affect your relationship? Every situation is different. But for us it has been extremely stimulating to be with other adults who obviously enjoy our sense of erotic fun. It is a very good way to kindle (or re-kindle) sexual arousal without the obvious physical and emotional dangers inherent in cheating on one's partner; you BOTH get to enjoy the fun and together can decide how far you want to go. +=> If you have any questions, you are welcome to contact us. We are NOT experts, but we hope this has given you an insight into taking those first scary but very exciting steps into the world of adult erotic fun! +Your vote will also indicate if this has been helpful and if we should continue to provide our observations in the future.

For instance I have a history of low hormones and depression & anxiety, so erectile dysfunction can easily be dismissed. +If you're reading this in all seriousness you probably don't need me to tell you that your will to live can so easily shrivel up with the rest of you, right? +I've had these conversations before, and often with one of my closest friends... +2 +I knew that ""J"" had some funny habits, because like me he's quite self- deprecating in his humour and admitted not only to watching hours of porn per week, but also spending a lot of money calling certain hotlines. Because his sex life was drying up thanks to extending work hours and the resulting exhaustion, J relied more on porn to get off and to relieve stress. +Lightweight! +At the time I was watching a good two hours' worth of porn per night, and sometimes again in the morning, just warming up for a quality rub, unaware that I was suffering with erectile dysfunction as a result of something he called ""Death Grip Syndrome"". +I was literally breaking my dick just trying to get it up. I honestly thought it was because I smoked. It didn't help that my libido was low due to depression. I didn't ever think that I was addicted to watching porn, or to masturbating, to the point that it was becoming bad for my health. But saying that, I was finding it nearly impossible to become aroused by anything anymore! +J mentioned the Porn Detox Challenge to me, which he had read about on his work break that day, and literally challenged me on the spot to do it. What the hell, I thought. Here are the steps to take right now. And the rest of the article you can read after if you still want to. +3 +30 DAY PORN DETOX CHALLENGE +Over the duration of a month, longer if you can manage, you must: +1.) NOT view porn +2.) NOT view sexual images +3.) NOT view nudity +4.) NOT read erotic literature +5.) NOT engage in sexting +6.) NOT masturbate +7.) NOT have sex +Admittedly even if you're not addicted to porn or other forms of sexually explicit material, it's a tough challenge. Sometimes I only masturbated once a day or once every few days to a week at that point, but when I started the challenge it made me realise just how much I relied on the Internet to get me off when I felt I needed it; because I was feeling improvements in my libido within two weeks. +Over the duration you're likely to take on more stress. It's important to vent this with more social activity and/or healthy physical activity. Try to lower your caffeine as well, and if you fall off the wagon, you must start all over and remain abstinent for the full duration. +I did a lot of reading in that time too. If I found myself alone with the urge and the effects of being starved of gratification, I just revelled in the feeling. +Of course, when I was much younger I had to try to hide my boners when the wind blew. Now I was feeling like ""this is what it feels like to be normal again"" and laughing at myself. +4 +I guarantee that when your detox is over, you will experience your teenage years all over again. If you're a guy, I can definitely guarantee the most insane erections you will have had in years. Don't want that novelty to wear off? Then you know what's causing it! +I wish you all the best of luck, should you choose to accept this mission. This tape will now self destruct. LOL!!! +Okay, so no need for statistics. Men and women both suffer the same problem with their libido and the problem is greatly psychological. We get so dependent on competitively provocative media designed to turn us on that it's hypersexual. It causes our senses to overload to the point where reality is just too much. Why bother with the real thing when porn does it all for us? +In relation to Death Grip Syndrome, we get to a point where we're literally wearing ourselves down, reducing sensitivity and doing to our genitals what they were not truly designed for. Sex is soft and smooth and hot and wet. Masturbating can so easily be way too callous, hard and fast. And let's face it; hands do not replace the real thing. +That in turn ruins sex because the soft, smooth, hot, wet approach no longer has the intensity needed to get us worked up enough to reach orgasm. It's nothing short of tragic! +The constant influx of sexual images while self-pleasuring might not necessarily be directly degrading to the men and women in your life either, but what it does is defeat the object of your libido's mission, to have sex. And when you're addicted to and dependent on sexually explicit material, you'll find yourself growing colder towards your partner or your preferred sex in general. +Yes, masturbating is healthy in moderation, but if we become overly sexualised then we become jaded and the edge wears off. It takes too long to come. Sometimes we can't even get started, women too, and the mind and the libido after a while fail to be turned on. +5 +When you see the difference the detox makes, either you'll be raring to go for the best sex you've had in years or you'll be halfway through a bottle of lube in no time and trying not to blow your load into your hand too soon. +For me, sensitivity was through the roof. The first day I came off the ban, I was teasing my close lady friend about it all morning before we met that afternoon for a most vigorous nap. I had to go to the bathroom to splash some cold water on myself before she arrived. It was as though I'd taken a few too many Viagra. My erection was literally foaming from the strain. +And last but not least, make a note of your resulting mood, the way you treat the opposite sex/preference of sex, and the quality of the sex you'll be having from then on. +Porn is fun, anything sexually appealing is fun, masturbating is fun too, but it can be so easy to overdo it and not to see what the Internet does to us when we let our guard down!" +827,Taking the Anal Plunge,cyndiesweet,How To,2001-08-20,2001-08-20,2022-01-04 08:39:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/taking-the-anal-plunge,A newbie's guide to sensual & less painful anal sex.,"['Anal Sex', 'Bring Back', 'Lots Oil', 'Slide Penis']",4.32,"My husband and I tried anal sex for the first time a few years ago. It was my birthday gift to him. I wasn't wild about trying it, but it seemed really important to him so I agreed. I have to admit it wasn't great, for me anyway, although my husband seemed to enjoy it a lot. I was really nervous and had a hard time relaxing, but since then we have learned the do's and don't that make it great and I must admit I really enjoy it probably as much as he, when it is done right. +I wanted to write this to share what we have learned and hopefully help anyone who is interested find their way to fulfillment also in this particular area. So, for all you ladies whose partner has asked but you just weren't sure and for all you guys who are trying to talk her into it and for anyone else who just wants to know this is for you. +1) It is really important to let go of any preconceptions about it. If you grew up like me you probably either heard nothing about it but just got the general idea that it was dirty or actually heard someone tell you it was dirty, painful, etc. you can fill in the blank. All I can say is that having experienced it, I really like it, it feels really good (believe it!) and what we do in the privacy of our home is no ones business but ours. +2) The receiver must empty out. I have found this to be very crucial to whether or not it is a pleasurable experience. Now my husband is quite generously sized so maybe it isn't always important for everyone but it can't hurt and it most certainly helps. Buy an enema and use it according to the package directions a few hours before the planned event. Be sure to wait the full five minutes, if possible, before emptying out. Take a shower or bath to get cleaned up. +3) Drink, a little, don't get sloshed but drink enough to be relaxed and maybe lower your inhibitions a bit. +4) Do whatever turns you on. This is probably more important for women as sometimes it takes a bit longer to get going. Guys usually don't need much encouragement. So watch a movie, read some sexy stories, sit and talk to your partner or whatever works for you. +5) This is for the guys. You need to make sure you are not so fired up about this that you cum in record time. However you do that is up to you. Get your partners help if she is willing or take care of things yourself but make sure to time it appropriately too. If she is all ready to go and you are all done... well enough said. +6) Set the mood. Send the kids to bed or better yet get a sitter and a hotel. Light candles if you like, play music, dance or whatever makes it special for you. +7) Guys, she will like it better if you can get her aroused even orgasm once first and then bring her back again close but not quite. If she is really nervous about trying this or has tried it and not liked it previously you need to move in for a back massage now. Use lots of oil or lotion and concentrate on just relaxing muscles first, then when you feel her relax, move to the butt muscles, remind her to relax if need be, talk to her if you know she likes it. You might want to use a flavored oil if you plan to use your tongue (which by the way I highly recommend) around her anus. +Watch for signs of what she seems to like and do it again. Oil your fingers really good and try to slip one in, be gentle and make sure you nails are trimmed short. If you need, use more oil and get her used to the sensation of your finger then, try two fingers. Take your time and take your cues from her. When it is time for you to slide your penis in, again use lots of oil or lubricant and go slow. It takes a fair amount of pressure to get it in the first few times just keep going and make sure you have enough lubricant. +If this is her first time stop once you get the head in sometimes it stings and takes a minute to get used to having your penis there. (See why I told you to get a release first before trying this)You might stoke her clit or have her do it or you can use a vibrator but bring her back to arousal and get her to forget that it hurt initially. +(A side note: it doesn't always hurt the first time but sometimes it does so be prepared to distract her.) Once you have her focused on pleasure again you can slide your penis in a little more, and a little more, you get the idea take you cues from her. Now it has been my experience that there needs to be some clitoral stimulation for her to orgasm.

As a single mother with two failed relationships, I wanted to discuss in depth some obstacles from the past; among them was sex. Admittedly, I have an unusually high sex drive. By the end of my fourteen year marriage, sex had become contentious rather than enjoyable. So it was very important to me that this pattern not repeat itself. I would like to share in this essay, not the specific answers, but the questions I asked. My hope is that others may find these questions useful to begin and frame their own conversation with potential spouses and/or long term partners. +How often is too often? Frequency is a good place to begin. We have all heard the story about the couple where he wants sex several times a day and she has lost complete interest. Unfortunately, in many marriages this is the reality. Be careful though of the response to this question in particular. Women realise that few men would say every day or more often is too much, but the reality of living with that may test and drain the average man's stamina. Know to that exact matches are not necessary. The problem arises when there are significant disparities; such as several times a day and sex just isn't that important to me. While this first question should not be the death kneel of any relationship, such answers should trigger deeper personal and joint reflection on how such things might be handled. +What do you like? Granted in this day and age, most couples will have been sexually active for sometime by this point, but there may still be fantasies and areas of desire that each of been reluctant to share with the other. How does your partner feel about oral or anal sex? Does this match your own views and desires? How much foreplay does he or she require? This is the ideal time to discuss these and re-discover one another, before moving onto a deeper level. +Wild sex, making love and quickies? Sometimes it is more than the simple frequency of sex that can become an issue. Sometimes it may be the type of sex that each partner craves. An exploration of the specific needs of each person in terms of these three broad types of relations can reveal some potential hurdles as well. As with the frequency issue, this is simply a tool to open a dialogue to further exploration. Yet it can reveal issues that should be dealt with. For instance if one partner prefers quickies and wild sex, but does not 'believe' in love making; this can present a challenge to a potential mate that values making love. +What is cheating to you? If the Monica Lewinsky-Bill Clinton affair offered us any insight into the state of affairs, sexual infidelity that is; it is that people define cheating in different ways. President Clinton may well have meant every word he said when he said, 'I did not have sexual relations with that woman.' To some people, oral and manual stimulation does not cross the line of infidelity because there was no actual sexual intercourse. In today's cyber world, this question assumes ever increasing importance. Is cyber sex, role playing such as Second Life, or simply racy, flirtatious chatting cheating to you? Again, the idea is not to match exactly, but to understand the other person's views and reach a compromise. This is important, because the last thing you want to face two or twenty years into your marriage is a situation where your partner says 'but THAT wasn't really cheating.' Such excuses only add insult to injury in an already difficult situation. +Exploring fetishes. We all have them; mine are interracial and impregnation. Obviously from my pen name and bio, my husband has the interracial covered. But I also serve as 'Goddess' at a fetish site dedicated to the exploration of impregnation, pregnancy and lactation. As the mother of six, obviously I have a tiny interest in such things. When we were first married and trying for our daughter, the words 'I want your baby,' was all it took to send my husband into sexual overdrive. Things though changed after the birth of his only child; he is content with one. I, on the other hand, remain fascinated and sexually excited by these topics. It has taken understanding and compromise to reach our solution; I write, often about those very subjects. This discussion of the unusual becomes even more important in certain situations; this would clearly be a good time to discuss the issue of transvestites, BDSM or auto- asphyxiation. But even fetishes such as my impregnation should be dealt with as well; it is always sad to hear from couples with large disparities in the number of children they would like. +As I have said repeatedly, the issue is not to find a partner, who matches you exactly; few of us achieve such things. The issue is to reflectively consider what potential challenges you may face as a couple in the long term. In the throes of new love, most of us idealise our partners. Differences in sexual appetite may be dismissed as 'that is so sweet that he wants me so much,' but these issues can in the long run become significant sources of marital strife. How many people after five years and two children come to resent their partners seemingly incessant demands for sex? By discussing before marriage our expectations in an open and honest manner, we will at least have a framework for continued conversation and compromise. +That is the other thing to realise; situations and people change over time. Having this type of conversation before marriage does not guarantee these issues will not come up later in the marriage. I know from personal experience, they do. But it does give a framework for those future discussions as well. I can clearly say to my husband, 'when we talked about this before we got married, you said XYZ.' Together we then explore new expectations and options. +Marriage and long term relationships are never simple. Unlike what we may have thought, love is not always enough to get us through the tough times. Sex is not the only subject about which couples should have these types of thought- provoking conversations; the same could be said for finances, child-rearing and extended families among other things. We also need skills such as communication and compromise. By having this type of conversation and exploration before we commit, we are developing those skills early." +829,Talk Dirty to Me,Bakeboss,How To,2010-08-18,2010-08-18,2022-01-04 08:39:22,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/talk-dirty-to-me-4,Be wary when using this bedtime treat.,"['Dirty Talk', 'Sex Advice']",3.78,"Let me start by saying I have no degrees in the following subject and no professional insight. I am merely using observation and personal experience for my reference and therefore it is just my opinion. +It's true that many couples enjoy using dirty talk to spice up their sex life. Also true is the fact that many people would like to include erotolalia or the use of dirty words in their sex life but are afraid of overstepping boundaries or offending their partner. It is anybody's guess how many people would desire to perform this practice and yet at the same time, do not know that their partner wishes the same. +In what may seem irregular or against the norm is there may well be more women who enjoy erotolalia than men. This could stem from the fact that women at one time would be considered crude to use vulgar language. This fact may make dirty talk naughty or erotic if you will and thus just that much more exciting to the female. +The biggest problem for those who wish to bring erotolalia into relationship is the worry of acceptance by the other party. My suggestion is to introduce dirty talk slowly and to watch for signs from your partner as to whether they like it or not. If a woman was to, let's say, scream out suddenly, +""Fuck me with your big cock,"" +It might not only surprise him but shock him as well. As we all know, the fragile male ego may lose concentration when surprised and often erections as well. However if the partner was to whisper in his ear, something such as, +""Ah yes, just like that I love the way you fuck me."" +You might see his eyes open and you might hear him moan softly, which is always a good sign that your partner likes what he is hearing. If the signs point to him enjoying what you're doing keep going. If at this time he answers, you in kind make sure to show him you like what you're hearing. +After this first time and you two are lying there post-coital, be sure and let your partner know how much it excited you to talk dirty to him. If he returned your dirty talk with some of his own, let him know that excited you as well. If he didn't, tell him you wished he had and that you fantasized about it as you two had sex. +If it is the male trying to initializing the dirty talk into the relationship he will need to use more discretion and may need to take more time and patience. If the male starts with more romance and less vulgarity, it will be easier to judge how receptive she will be. You might begin with how romantic it is to kiss her breasts or how erotic it is just to be close to her. If you judge that she likes what you are doing increase the dirty talk slowly at first. The thing you want to avoid is going over the top, if you shock her or if she feels you are insulting her she may stop you right there and anytime in the near future. If this doesn't happen and after you're finished, be sure to discuss it with your partner to see what her reaction was. Even if it was something, she didn't particularly enjoy if she sees how much you liked it she may slowly come on board with it. +If I may just insert a side note here, I know I'm portraying here that women are the gentle flower, or the weaker sex per say. It is just I was raised in a different generation where women were taught not to swear and the men were taught not to swear in front of ladies. I know that many of today's ladies are not like that at all, and believe me that makes me happy but I'm talking of mainly personal experiences here. I have found it was the women that were raised this old-fashioned way that the practice of erotolalia titillated the most. +It is after both are comfortable with talking dirty and it has become a normal part of their lovemaking that true problems occur. After a word or action is introduced once, it immediately starts to lose it shock value and thus its sexuality. You can only say, fuck, cock, or cunt so many times until they are nothing more than a word or action. It is when you are looking for new terms that you start to dwell in those secret fantasizes you've been hiding from your partner. +If while in the throes of passion you blurt out that you want to have a threesome with her sister and this turns her on, well you're a lucky man. You've not only added role-play into your sex life, you have used a secret fantasy that now you both can use. However if your partner thinks this is the most disgusting thing she's ever heard of you are in big trouble. This is the Genie's bottle or Pandora's Box for once opened it cannot be put back. Your statement no matter what it was will forever hang there above your head. +Just as in dirty talk, role-play needs to be introduced gently into your lovemaking. Instead of saying, +""I want to tie you up and smack your ass,"" +Hold her hands above her head and say, +""You're my captive and I can please you as I wish."" +If you see this turns her on go forward with your game. If you get no reaction, she may have ambivalent thoughts about this, so go slow, but carry on. If this particular game doesn't appeal to her back off, and maybe try something new. +Another tact, is to ask your partner just what turns them on and then to follow through with that but just don't push too hard. They may not wish to include you into their fantasizes and that is their right. If you push too hard, they may just make up something to appease you and suddenly you are both playing a role that neither is interested in doing. +Even with all the pitfalls and intrigue, role-play and dirty talk is a great way to spice up your love life. Just remember to take it slow, discuss your progress, and be ready to back off when you've gone too far. If you find that your partner is not interested in erotolalia, don't dwell on it. You should never let a small part of your lovemaking spoil an other wise good relationship." +830,The Talk,Goldeniangel,How To,2005-06-13,2005-06-13,2022-01-04 08:40:34,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-talk-2,How to talk to your children about sex.,[''],4.68,"_Author's Note: Obviously how-to's will not work for everyone, you may be in a unique situation. However, I hope that with this how-to more parents fill find it easier to figure out how to talk to their children about sex. As I just ended my teenage years 2 years ago, I'm speaking from a very recent viewpoint and generation; I hope to help. Thank You._ +**************************** +The Sex Talk is one of the scariest things to have, not for the parent but for the child. Speaking as someone who had their ""sex talk"" in the 90's, I can remember how much I dreaded it each and every time. Fortunately I had a very understanding and compassionate mother who totally understood teenagers. +Mom: ""Do you want to talk about drinking?"" +Me: ""No."" +Mom: ""Ok, just if you're at a party and you get drunk, call me. Don't try to drive EVER and don't get into a car with someone who's been drinking. You won't get into trouble if you call me. You don't call me and you try to drive or go with someone who's been drinking and you will never leave this house again. Do you want to talk about drugs?"" +Me: ""No."" +Mom: ""Ok, well if you're going to try it, do it here where I can monitor you and don't try anything stronger than marijuana. I'd prefer you don't do it at all, but if you're going to try then I don't want you getting arrested for it and I'd rather know that it's going on. Do you want to talk about sex?"" +Me: ""NO!"" +Mom: ""Ok, well if you're going to do it make sure that you let me know first so that I can put you on the pill and buy some condoms."" +Awkward silence. +Me: ""Mom, I'm waiting for marriage."" +Mom: ""That would be great honey, but let's be realistic. I'd prefer it if you wait for college but no matter what I want you to let me know first so that we can put you on birth control. And if you save yourself till marriage that's wonderful."" +Ok, so not only was that incredibly awkward, but it turned out to be right. I never did try drugs because they weren't something that interested me. However, I also never got into a car with someone who was drunk and I never tried to drive after I'd been drinking. My mom didn't flip out when I did get into car accidents, since I wasn't drinking, and so I knew I could trust her. That's why when I was 17 and with my first serious boyfriend, I knew it was ok to go to her and tell her I was ready to have sex. And she was a little startled, and not thrilled, but she didn't yell at me or try to talk me out of it. She just put me on the pill and made sure that I knew how important protection was. +Compared to some of my friends I was extremely lucky. For a 14 year old, my sex talk was mortifying but at least my mother was understanding and open. One friend's parents wouldn't talk to her at all about sex, she had to come to us and our parents for advice and help. She got her birth control from Planned Parenthood and her parents never knew for sure what was going on - they were too embarrassed to talk to their daughter about something like that. Another friend's mother put her daughter on the pill as soon as she turned 14 with the excuse of regulating her periods, she was the only one of us who actually waited till marriage before having sex. One very unlucky friend had parents who told her that sex before marriage was completely wrong, they refused to discuss anything but abstinence; at age 16 she was pregnant. +Now, obviously the same approach isn't going to work for everyone, but most of my friends said they wished that their parents had approached them in the way my mother approached me and my brother. A few said that they wished that their parents hadn't tried to talk about them at all, but I did notice that all of us who's parents had talked to us about it and were mostly open-minded fared the best. Those whose parents expressed loud disapproval either got children who were ashamed of their own desires, unsure about themselves and what they should do, and still went and had sex anyway (hopefully with protection, if provided enough information about it by the school's health class and their friends), or they got children who rebelled and did it without any protection at all. +A parent can hope that their child will wait, that their child will believe in the same morals and religious reasons that they do... but that doesn't always happen. And rather than feeling more inclined to have sex after finding out my mother's open attitude, I actually wanted to do it less. Because I felt obligated to tell her... after all she'd approached me in such a sympathetic and understanding way, so open, so accepting... how could I justify NOT telling her? Which meant that I REALLY wanted to wait. And so I did, I was one of the last of my friends to have sex, and I was definitely the best protected when I did have sex for the first time. Also, the guy I lost my virginity to is the guy I am still with today and one day hope to marry... again that's also not something that is going to happen to everyone, but for me it meant that I chose my first partner with utmost care. Because, you see, my mom was going to know that I was having sex with him. And that meant that not only would I feel the need for her approval, but I really wanted to be sure that I was ready for him if I was going to be telling my mom that my sex life was really starting. +The best tips that I got from my experiences, and my friend's, were +1\. Be open about it. Don't be afraid or ashamed to talk about it, because your child might then feel that it is something to ashamed about. That doesn't mean it will inhibit them from doing it once they decide to, but it does mean that they'll be less inclined to talk to you about it. +2\. Be honest. If you would prefer that they wait for marriage, TELL THEM. But also let them know that you'll love them no matter what they choose, and you'll be there for them. +3\. Express your deep concern that no matter what they use birth control. Whether they tell you or not, whether it's in your belief system or not - because if birth control isn't, I doubt that a child before marriage is either. Of utmost importance is THEIR safety, not your peace of mind. There are so many diseases out there, so many risks for teenage pregnancy, if nothing else they need that protection. +4\. Express some kind of belief that they will make the decision that is right for them. Don't try to order them to do anything - that only causes rebellious feelings. Let them know that in this, it's their judgment that matters. +5\. ASK them to come to you when it's time so that you can provide the birth control. If you are honest and open and they don't feel like they'll need to be afraid of your judgments or that you might not love them anymore, then they will come. +Most importantly, remember that this is about them, not about you. Because no matter what you do, they are going to make their own choice on this. You cannot be there every second of every day, making sure that they are following your wishes on sex. They see it on TV, in movies, hear about it on the radio, talk about it at school with their friends. In the end, it's their judgment that you're going to have to rely on. So you can either be a part of their life in this, or not. If they feel that you'll judge them, that you won't accept them, that you'll deny them if you find out that they've been having sex, then they won't come to you. They won't talk to you about it. And it's a much higher chance that they'll be irresponsible about it. +And whatever you do, don't panic. You act like it's the end of the world and I can almost guarantee that your kid is going to rebel. Or that they're going to be so afraid of you that when the times comes, they aren't going to be able to talk to you about it at all. +You may not believe it's right... but I hate to tell you: THAT DOES NOT MATTER. Your kid is going to do what he or she wants anyway. +This is the best advice I can give to parents who are trying to deal with their teenager's sexuality. Be open, be honest. Tell them that you weren't perfect either. Tell them that you waited till marriage. Tell them about your co-worker's daughter who's pregnant at 15 because she didn't use birth control. Make sure that they know about AIDS and STD's. Give them the knowledge and the support that they are going to need, because this is about them and what choice they're going to make. All you can choose is to be there for them, or not." +831,Tampon Training for TG Women,slutty_jannelle,How To,2007-05-02,2007-05-02,2022-01-04 08:39:23,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tampon-training-for-tg-women,Practical guide to feminine hygiene for cross-dressers.,"['Anal Training', 'Cross-Dressers', 'Feminine Hygiene', 'Sub Training', 'Tampons']",4.39,"_'...a lady in the drawing room, a whore in the bedroom.'_ +Copyright, 2007, by jR +Contents are for entertainment purposes only. The author assumes no responsibility or liability for its use or abuse. +* +For me, and I suspect, most TG 'girls', the anus becomes our 'pussy.' Curiosity and a desire for the total female experience naturally led me to explore 'feminine hygiene'. First, of course, I practiced douching, a very essential chore for all us women. Playing with tampons was an easy progression. As a teenager, I would insert one after douching/enemas, then remove it immediately after masturbation. Now, as an older adult, I have begun tampon training in earnest. Why? As Vince McMahan of pro wrestling says, ""For those who get it, no explanation is necessary. For those who don't, no explanation will suffice."" +To help other 'girls' explore their womanhood, I offer my experiences in tampon training. +My MISTRESS doesn't require tampon training. Rather, it sprang from my desire for complete femininity, inspired by HER remarks, when I get bitchy, that I must be having my 'period.' SHE has even mentioned marking four days in red every twenty-eight days on the calendar as my 'monthlies' +For the beginner, I would suggest inserting tampons only after douching, or at the very least, after a bowel movement. Then there will be some natural lubricant present to ease insertion. +Since even genetic women can suffer Toxic Shock Syndrome [TSS] from tampon use, I would recommend NEVER wearing a tampon overnight. Just wear a pad instead. We'll discuss pads later. +For discipline and humiliation, my MISTRESS requires me to go in the store alone to select and purchase my feminine hygiene products. The first few times, this was super embarrassing I was sure the clerk knew I cross-dressed and the tampons were for me, sort of like when you begin buying cosmetics or lingerie solo. You remember, you pretend they are for your girlfriend or wife, but you're certain the clerk can see through your charade. Over time, I have gotten more comfortable shopping for my intimate needs. +Unless you just MUST have a fancy brand, the 'house/generic' brands in the drug stores will do just fine. For the beginner, I would recommend buying an assortment pack which contains 'lite', 'regular', and 'super' tampons. That way, you can try them all and feel the differences [and there ARE differences, dearie. We'll go into that later]. +By checking the magazine ads, you can sometimes even get free samples by going to a company's web site. +Select a 'lite' or 'regular' tampon for your 'maiden voyage.' After carefully unwrapping it, apply a LITTLE water soluble lube to the applicator tube containing the actual tampon. In your choice of position, carefully insert it, leaving only enough of the tube to grasp while you push home the plunger to seat the tampon in you. This is why I said 'a LITTLE' lube. If you use gobs and gobs, then you won't be able to grip the tube.. Make sure the string 'tail' is hanging out for easy removal later. You can use saliva to lube the applicator in case you have to change tampons in a restroom emergency situation, or just for a more uncomfortable insertion at home. FWIW, sucking on a tampon applicator is extremely humiliating and could be used for discipline or punishment- just look at yourself in the mirror, girl. Imagine having to hold it in your mouth while being whipped, not dropping or crushing it... but that's a tale for another time. +Those with S & M tastes might wish to try soap or mentholated chest rub as a lube on the applicator and the exposed tip of the tampon. A completely dry insertion also keeps you very focused. After it is in for an hour or so, your body becomes more used to the intruder. So for continual discomfort, change it every couple of hours. A small tug on the string will also remind your body that you are 'female.' +A tampon inserted after douching will feel differently than one inserted without douching. +After several rounds of douching, my pussy, anyway, tends to flex and spasm around the tampon. This produces delightful feelings. Without a douche, a tampon gives an unusual feeling of fullness down there, which takes some getting used to. Even with a douche, over time, the feelings caused by the tampon will change. My experience is that at about the half-hour mark, it changes to a dull ache that lingers long after the tampon is removed. Start by wearing it for a half hour, and add an hour each time, working up to 8-12 hours a day for several days in a row. +For your first couple of times wearing a tampon, I would recommend staying home, and close to the bathroom. The intrusion of the tampon itself, coupled with your movements, can stimulate the bowels to action. If this happens, hold it as long as you can comfortably [remember, this IS training, sweetie ]. Then, remove the tampon, do your business, clean up, and insert a fresh one if your training schedule that day is for a longer period of time. A sensible woman does not flush her tampons down the toilet, but rather, carefully wraps them in TP for disposal. Tampons, sanitary pads, and even panty-liners tend to clog toilets, so please be prudent here to avoid accidents and embarrassment. +Peeing, with a tampon in, is its own adventure. Sitting as a woman, of course, requires different muscle control/relaxation than standing, regardless of how badly you have to go. Your first few times, you will swear that tampon is going to come right out. Don't worry, it probably won't. I've never had this happen to me. Passing gas is another unforgettable moment. Again, your whole insides won't come rushing out. If it does, just clean up and insert a fresh one. After all, the world isn't going to stop spinning just because a 'woman' had an accident! +The first time you go out in public wearing a tampon is both scary and exhilarating. Since most of us do not go out 'dressed' [and some like me could NEVER pass -- sigh], wearing a tampon in public is probably the closest we'll get. OK, some of us wear panties daily, and sometimes a garterbelt or girdle and hose under our clothing. But tampon wear is the most intimate iniation into womanhood we can practice out there. +After my first few 'outings' wearing a tampon, I began carrying a compact pursette tampon in my pocket in case I had to make an emergency pit-stop. After all, there aren't convenient dispensers in the restrooms I have to use in public! To date, I haven't had to use my 'spare.' +The instructions on a tampon box say that when correctly inserted, a woman won't feel them. Maybe for genetic women, but not for us, honey. Tampon use focuses your constant attention on your 'pussy.' Even after you become an accomplished user, the feelings still nag, with twinges from any movement, walking, or shifting position. You will always be aware of what is stuffing you, girl. A slight tug on the string is sure to remind you of your female status. Just like genetic women, you can resume your daily activities wearing a tampon: shopping, eating, even exercising. +A'Lite' tampon will generally be thinner than 'regular' or 'super', and therefore cause less discomfort. For me at least, a 'super' feels thicker, fuller, and firmer, and is less forgiving of body movements. A 'regular' is just that. +Below, I have included a sample page from my 'training diary.' You can create your own, but this should give you some ideas and get you started. In mine, I have categories for 'Implement', and 'Diameter' so I can use the diary to document dildo, dilator, and plug training as well. +DATE IMPLEMENT DIAMETER DURATION +3/5/07 tampon standard 4 hrs [no douche] +changed once due to BM, no lube. +3/10/07 tampon pursette compact 9 hrs [no douche, 2 meals] +inserted after BM, no lube. +3/15/07 tampon standard [super] 7hrs [no douche] +inserted after BM, no lube. +3/16/07 tampon standard [regular] 6 hrs, no douche, TKD, 1 no lube.

The natural companion to the tampon, of course, is a pad. Once again, the 'house' brands will work just fine. I prefer the maxis because they tend to be thicker. As with tampons, that wad of material wedged in my crotch reinforces my feminine feelings and keeps my attention focused down there. +I've never used the elastic 'sanitary belts' to hold a pad in place, although on occasion, MISTRESS threatens to make me wear one out in public. Do they still even make those? Do any of the pads come with the 'tails to secure them? I don't know. Instead, I use the sticky strip on the pads to position them in my panties. Like all women, you can wear a pad with or without a tampon. From a practical standpoint, I like to wear a pad after douching or enemas to take care of any little dribbles, fore and aft. Pantiliners also work well for this, but I prefer the thick pads. As with tampons, save yourself the grief and do not flush them after use. +Few of us TG girls are lucky enough to live as women 24/7.

You move on, tracing the lines on my neck and throat, playing with the aspects of my ears. You explore my shoulders, the base of my throat and you continue your exploration of my body. You walk your fingers down my arms, touching all of the ticklish parts, particularly along my ribs, the inside of my loins, and the palm of my hands. +You return to my chest and begin an excruciatingly slow exploration of my chest and sides. You dip your head slowly and take my nipples into your mouth...and do unto them what you love having done unto yours...teasing them gently, making them taut. You release them and continue down my torso, only to return to my nipples again. I gasp as you take them into your mouth with force, sucking on them with hunger, drawing from them my life force.

Now, you, press hard against me, insistent, impatient. You get off my body and explore me with just your lips and tongue. You touch my hips and I buck reflexively. You trace the outer aspect of my legs, strong and solid from years of soccer, and you reach for my feet and begin to slowly massage them, taking them into your mouth and sucking my toes, licking the arch and stroking the balls of my feet. You continue up the inside line of my legs, reaching my knees, stretching my legs out and holding them to stroke behind my knees. +You take your time, gradually teasing me, knowing what I want, knowing I will have it soon, hoping I can understand the need to restore sensual sensation to every cell in my body, waking me up to the sexuality in every muscle. +You nip the inside of my thighs, lick them, kissing them. You want to touch me, lick me, suck me, but you wait. You touch lightly with wetted finger the tip of my hard, swollen cock, delighting in its slick texture, and then you run your down its underside tomy balls.

Releasing them, you plunge your mouth down on my cock, taking me in completely. I respond with vigor, fucking your mouth, fucking your throat. Just as I reach the edge, you release me. +You suck me from tip to base, taking me in. I beg for release, once, twice, three times. You smile, relax your grip on me and remind me: breathe, slowly, in and out, enjoy this; it never has to end. Again and again, you grasp my cock gently, between your thumb and middle finger, as if you are holding a slice of lemon you will taste before drinking a shot of tequila, and you just slide up and down me, taking me almost to the tipping point, and then letting the charge in me subside a bit. I feel like a river swollen in floodtide, but the levee holds. The pleasure is agonizing beautiful. At times I feel the touch of a feather, drawn across the underside of my cock's head, as if you were playing my cock with the feather like a violin with a bow, could make me come. The impulse to thrust, to leap off the table and take you from behind, doggie-style, burying my cock deep into your cunt with unimpeded power, runs through my body, my mind, my imagination. I am at the mercy of your touch, and I love it and hate it. I want to cry out and you stifle my desire to cry with a kiss, and I plead to you with my lips, my tongue: Take me....take me all the way.... But I break the contact of the kiss. Don't take me, not yet; the torture of the pleasure is too beautiful. +But, finally, I can't stand it anymore and I begin to buck. You then suck me hard, stroking me at the same time, reaching for my balls and drawing them up, your finger in my ass, stroking, humming, waiting, watching. I explode with the roar of a lion. +When I am spent, you soothe me, stroking my hot, sweaty skin, comforting me as I try to find my body again, try to fit this experience into the space of myself, expanding that space to include this." +833,TBM's guide to Cunnilingus,Thetwobitmechanic,How To,2020-05-10,2020-05-10,2022-01-04 08:39:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tbms-guide-to-cunnilingus,Tips and tricks for providing a woman pleasure.,"['Cunnilingus', 'Eating Pussy', 'Oral', 'Tutorial']",4.63,"Hey guys, Two Bit here. I overheard a discussion my wife was having with a friend of hers last week that really got me thinking. I am fortunate (Or rather my wife is) that I enjoy eating pussy. And from all indicators I'm pretty good at it. So I thought I'd put together a tutorial of my methods. I'm not trying to claim I'm some amazing lover. I have my issues like everyone else but on this particular subject my enthusiasm has served me well. That being said I might be wasting my time but if this helps a small handful of people then it's time well spent in my book. +1\. Exploration is important: It doesn't matter if you're with your wife of 30 years or the easy chick you picked up for a one nighter. Treat every time like an opportunity to learn something new. +2\. Don't go straight for the man in the boat (her clit): Make it about her body, foreplay can never be over valued, she should be plenty hot and bothered before your lips reach her nether region. kissing her neck, nibble lightly on her earlobe. Pay attention to what her body tells you. A sharp inhale is almost always a good indicator your on the rite track. Rubbing her inner thigh while you're loving on her is usually well received. +3\. The rolling trail south: If all is going well her body should be responding, don't only listen to her words (but do pay attention to what she says if she's talking) react to her body. Every woman has queues that indicate when she's turned on. It takes time to learn them sometimes but if you pay attention you should be able to pick up on when its time to proceed. I like to lay a trail of kisses down her collar bone when its time to head south. +4\. Pit stop at the pleasure peaks: When kissing down her chest kiss a nipple with the tip of your tongue pressed between your lips, this leaves the nipple slightly wet, then open your mouth above the nipple and inhale, the air traveling over her wet nipple has a cooling effect. Then wrap your lips around her nipple and suck lightly. The transition from cool to warm is usually well received but if she doesn't like it then you'll know for next time, if her nipples aren't sensitive rubbing them with your tongue while lightly sucking them can also be enjoyable. +5\. Move on: Don't dwell too long at her nipples, they are fun and can provide a lot of pleasure but they aren't the end game. Pay them both some attention so long as its being well received and then continue kissing down to her naval area. +6\. Two paths forward. Option 1 : If she's responding well it might be time to get to the main event, continue kissing down while positioning yourself between her legs, kiss down the crease of her leg until you can kiss her pussy lips. +7 Option 2: If you think shes up for a little bit of teasing I like to sit up and crawl between her legs, raise and lay over one of her knees so you can kiss the inside of her leg just above her knee, kiss up her inner thigh using the same method as her nipple leaving a trail of wet spots up her inner thigh. +8\. The main event: The time has come... you now have two goals, first to figure out what her body responds to the most, and to keep doing that until she makes you stop. start by sliding the tip of your tongue between her lips slowly slide it up and down while pressing deeper between her lips. When your tongue first makes contact with her clit you might feel her body jump. This is a good sign that she's aroused, lightly rub the tip of your tongue against her clit slowly applying more force. Once your tongue is making full contact with her clit I like to slide it down to get a taste of how wet she is. there are several techniques you can use to provide her stimulation. I'm going to list the ones I find most enjoyable in my experience but some trial and error will be needed, if you don't feel her responding or hear any indication she likes it move on to something else. +A: Clit sucking. Wrap your lips around her clit and suck lightly while flicking it with the tip of your tongue. This provides a lot of stimulation. +B: Clit massage. Press down on her clit with your tongue and move your tongue in slow circles. If she starts rolling her hips try speeding up your circles, pay attention to her body sometimes this can be too much and actually distract the build up towards orgasm. +C: long strokes. Run the base of your tongue against her clit and lick up till it reaches the tip of your tongue, then repeat. +D: Add penetration: Some women need penetration to achieve orgasm, bring your hand up under your chin and insert 1-2 fingers into her pussy palm up, curl your fingers slightly and rub them against the upper wall of her pussy, this should stimulate her G-Spot while you continue eating her pussy. If G-Spot stimulation doesn't have a positive response slowly sliding your fingers in and out might get you the response you are looking for. +Once you find something that gets her moaning, moving or cussing keep doing it, try to be consistent. Building to orgasm takes some time and as long as she is responding favourably keep doing what you are doing, any change can derail what you're building towards. If she wants it a little different let her ask for it. Even the most conservative women will normally let you know what they need to push them over the edge if they are getting close. +I hope some of you find this helpful. I have some additional general tips to add that have less to do with technique and more to do with the mood of the situation. if your woman says something like ohh baby you don't have to do that, she is usually projecting. the idea of eating pussy grosses her out so it must gross you out. In these scenarios foreplay is extra important. If you need to ask her to take a shower before you perform the act no matter why it is make it about you. +In my mind all guys should eat pussy. even selfish assholes should know that getting your woman off first will enhance the sex for you afterwards, wet tight with no pressure to perform. And some women who cant cum just from penetration will be able to get off again building from her previous orgasm(s) +All of this being said no one gets it rite 100% of the time, don't let a mediocre sexual experience stop you from exploring. The entire point to a relationship is to enjoy each other. +Communication is important. Most of the problems with my marriage can be marked up to communication issues on my part and her part. If you like something tell her. If you don't know if she liked something ask her. Open communication can be the difference between an dissatisfied bed time and an all night fuck marathon you dont know if you're ever going to beat! +As always constructive feedback is always welcome. + " +834,Tease and Denial 101,Duke567,How To,2020-05-09,2020-05-09,2022-01-04 08:39:26,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tease-and-denial-101,An introduction to erotic tease and denial.,"['Chastity', 'Denial', 'Girl Friend', 'How To', 'Introduction', 'Male Chastity', 'Orgasm Denial', 'Tease', 'Tease And Denial', 'Wife']",4.6,"Ironically, it is usually the male partner who brings up the topic of erotic male tease and denial. If you are not familiar, Erotic Tease and Denial is when one partner, usually the female, does not allow the other partner to orgasm during sexual intimacy. +________ +So your husband asked you to deny him. What is wrong with him? +First off, you need to know that this is not uncommon and there is nothing wrong with him. It does not mean he doesn't like sex anymore. It does not mean that he doesn't like orgasms anymore. It definitely DOES NOT mean that he doesn't love you anymore or that he isn't sexually attracted to you anymore. +________ +Why does he want you to deny him orgasm? +There are many reasons a man may desire tease and denial. This is a list of the common reasons. Your man may be responding to one or more of these reasons, or some other reasons not in this list. +-He desires to give up control. +-He craves the hormones produced by the intense arousal of denial. +-He is excited by giving control of his sexuality to his partner (you). +-He is excited by humiliation. +-His sex drive is increased. +-His orgasms will be better when denial is over. +-He wants a constant feeling of sexual arousal. +________ +Are there benefits for me? +Believe it or not, most women don't want to deny the man they love an orgasm. So this is a common question. The answer is YES. Here are a few benefits most women experience. +Extended foreplay. When you both understand you won't be allowing him to orgasm, he will not be in a rush to speed up any phase of the sexual experience. Foreplay will continue as long as you wish. If you make it clear his chance of being allowed an orgasm depends on your satisfaction, he will be especially eager to please. +Orgasms. Lots more orgasms for you. When a male is denied, he never finishes. He will be an eager participant until you are completely satisfied and ask him to stop. If you want three or four orgasms, he will have the energy to give them to you. No more minute man two pump chump. He will have the lasting power you need. He can deliver these orgasms with his fingers, tongue, or toys; preferably a combination of all three. +Oral Sex. A man who is sexually denied will be eager to give you frequent oral sex. In fact, he is likely to become a pussy connoisseur. His pent up arousal will keep him eager for any sexual contact with you. You can focus this need however you like, including oral pleasure. If you give him some basic instructions while he is going down on you, you will find his skills improve rapidly. +Snuggling. Once the main event is over, when you are sexually satisfied, there is nothing better than your man holding you while you gently drift off to sleep. So often a man just finishes, then rolls over and passes out. When you deny him his orgasm, he will desire continued connection. Expect your denied man to want to hold you after having sex. Remember his arousal is still at 90%. +More intimacy. This seems counter-intuitive, but you will experience more intimacy in your relationship when he is denied sexual release. He'll be more attentive and interested in physical contact, but since there's no pressure to make him cum, it can be of the relationship building variety. +Secrets. Having your little secret will bring you closer together. Many couples love knowing that he has been denied and is extremely horny. Going out in public or with friends can be exciting. It can be fun watching him try to hide an erection when you tease him in public. +Spark. If you have been together for several years, you may notice that your sex life is a little less exciting than when you were first together. Practicing tease and denial will help keep an incredibly strong spark in your sex life, and hopefully also in your relationship in general. +Stress. If one of you has physical sexual problems, male denial can take the stress of sex away. If you experience pain during intercourse or an inability to orgasm from penetrative sex, knowing that he won't be cumming removes the expectation of penetration. If he suffers from erectile dysfunction (ED), lowering the pressure he feels to perform can save him stress. Since ED is usually at least 50% mental and exacerbated by stress, this can often even result in relief from the symptoms of ED. (If either partner is experiencing sexual problems like these, seek medical attention.) +Feel like a teenager. You will find you both crave sex play like when you were a teenager. Denying him at the end of a sexual encounter will leave him in a state of arousal just like when he was a teen after a long make out session. +________ +How do I do Tease and Deny correctly? +There is no right way or wrong way to Tease and Deny a man. Every couple is different and will do it differently. As long as both partners are having fun, you're doing it right. Here are some tips; you may find all or some of them helpful. +Your man likely wants you to 'force' him to not orgasm. This means that if during sex he begs and pleads with you to let him cum, he actually want you to be strict about his denial. Don't feel guilty; remember that it was him who asked you to play tease and denial. Try 'forcing' him to give you orgasms however you like them best. You may find this to be a real turn on for both of you. +Don't forget about the tease part of this. During sex, stimulate him. Bring him as close to orgasm as you can without letting him climax. After sex, you can keep him on edge simply by holding his hard cock while you recover from your multiple orgasms. You can amuse yourself the next day by bring his cock to full attention with simple teases; a look or touch. +You can deny him for one intimate session, or several. Some extreme couples may even continue denial for weeks or months. When you first try tease and denial, don't try to go too long. One or two intimate sessions is likely as long as is recommended. But once you have a little experience, don't be afraid to deny him for several consecutive intimate encounters. And again, don't feel guilty; remember that he asked you for tease and denial. He likely wants you to deny him longer than you suspect. +Every couple is different. Some like to schedule their tease and denial. Other couples enjoy it better if he doesn't know when he's going to be allowed to cum. This uncertainty can add to the excitement of the experience for both of you. You can even make his orgasm dependent on his performance, or even a game of chance (dice or coin flip). +How often you engage in Tease and Denial will depend on your preference. Every couple is different. You may enjoy having a Tease and Denial session every month or two. Maybe less. Some couples make Tease and Denial a permanent part of their sexual dynamic only allowing the male to orgasm infrequently or, for extreme couples, never. +If you are one of those ladies who love to feel your man climax inside of you, denying your partner may seem like a punishment for you. Just remember that if he worked up the courage to ask you for this, he likely thought this through for weeks or months. This is probably something he desires a lot. You can still let him penetrate you, just make sure he pulls out before climaxing. And don't worry; you can have him finish inside you next time. Make sure you get something you love in exchange for your 'sacrifice'. This could be a sexual favour, or you could even have him perform a chore the next day. +If you make a mistake and accidentally push him too far, that's ok. It happens. But you can still salvage the denial fantasy by promptly removing stimulation to his genitals. Watching his cock pulse while he ejaculates without contact can be fun and a real turn on, all while still leaving him sexually charged. +This one is important. He is not allowed to masturbate during a period of denial. Make sure he understands and is in agreement on this. There is no point playing out a tease and denial fantasy if he is going to cum on his own between sex with you. He needs to know the game will end if he fails. +________ +Do I need any equipment? +There is no need for any 'equipment'. Some couples may use tools to have fun, adding some extra spice to the scene. Bondage restraints can be fun and add to the fantasy that you are forcing his denial. A chastity devise to lock up his cock can add to the fun all throughout the day during the period of denial. It can also help insure he doesn't masturbate. You may both find that using your favourite vibrator to bring yourself to orgasm while denying him is a huge tease. Consider buying a new one you save for use only while denying him. +The most important thing to remember it to have fun." +835,Teen-age Prank,prevacker,How To,2018-08-13,2018-08-13,2022-01-04 08:39:27,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/teen-age-prank,Find horny girls at porno theater.,"['College', 'Fingering', 'Foreplay', 'Hand Job', 'Movie', 'Porn', 'Prank']",3.14,"There was an adult movie theatre in my college town, back in the late 1980s before all porn was internet porn. I checked it out and discovered that sometimes female coeds attended these movies, and that when they did, they always sat together in the very back row of the theatre. I came up with a great idea that didn't work every time, but when it did not work, there was not trouble because these girls did not want their parents to know they had been to a porno flick. Plus they had not ""really"" been molested, as you will understand when you read this. +What I did was pay off the manager of the theatre so I could close off the back row of seats. I filled the seats and space with packing boxes, as if they were going to replace the seats, but actually the boxes were empty and connected so I could move inside them and move along the center row which was 10 seats long. I bribed the ticket sales lady to phone me when a group of women paid for tickets and I lived close so I could get over there and get into the end box, which gave me access to the entire row, although it did not look like it to the casual observer. +That took some doing but I bribed the projectionist to bring up the lights and when they went down, before the screen lit up, nobody could see anything and I could jump across the aisle and enter the end box. +Then it was just a matter of moving along the box, and reaching under the seat in front with my arm. Now you might think this wouldn't work because there was no way to get my arm far enough under the seat to make the turn and reach back for pussy. But that is the beauty of my plan - although I do have long arms. I didn't go for the pussy. I caressed the ankle!! +Then the lower leg and behind the knee.. - and if the girl reached down and slapped my hand, I moved to the next seat. After a while if she did not react to the gentle touches on her lower leg, I would move along. +Sometimes the girl would alert the others, but if I timed it right so they were all busy watching, and if I did not try to persist at all when my hand was slapped away, that did not happen as much as you might think. Plus maybe they didn't realize it was a hand? Rats? Wouldn't that have created MORE of a reaction? Maybe they thought it was paper trash blowing along- I was VERY gentle to start with. +It was the 80s and women really did not speak up the way they do nowadays. Once I was caressing the lower leg, and going higher and higher, it was just a matter of time before some of the girls would slump down in the seat as they were watching the porno, so their pussy was at the front edge of the seat. They wanted more than leg massage! Some would even slip off their panties before sliding down; when that happened I knew they were there for a happy ending, and I would tease and tease her- I knew how long the movie was and where the most action was... (I could watch thru small holes in the boxes). +I would time the major stimulation for the hottest part of the movie, and maybe that allowed the girl to be more vocal when she got the relief she was hoping for. I was gentle and persistent. Many of them would hold my hand while I was busy, often guiding it some, or holding it away for a short time- apparently just to establish that she was in control. And she was in control. +I would sometimes masturbate with the other hand, but after making a total mess once I rarely finished. I guess these girls didn't realize I could come on my hand, transfer the cum to my busy hand, and impregnate them right there in the movie theater. Girls can be really horny too I guess, and the ones who controlled me got what they wanted- I never tried STOPPING to find out what they would do when they didn't get to finish. +I must have done this about 25 times before I got tired of it; part of the reason was that one girl kept coming back for more- and I was worried that she would get upset with me if I did not do what she wanted. Believe it or not, I could recognize her from her pussy- she was the only virgin who ever let me get above the ankle! She loved to have my fingertip in her vagina once she was sure I would not tear her hymen. I would collect her wetness, then work it into her clit (which was larger than average). She started whispering to me the third time, that also sort of put me ""on edge"". None of the others acted as if I were alive even- they just enjoyed the touches and I could have been any age or sex- I doubt that would have mattered. I was simply a sort of stimulator provided by the theater- not a living breathing perverted human being. +By then I had found a way to identify the girls who were most cooperative, and arranged to meet them later on campus. So I had 5 girlfriends that were anxious to be touched. I never told them what I had done- that I was the one in the porno movie theater. But I knew what they would enjoy, and that they wanted to enjoy it enough to allow a stranger to provide it. None of them seemed very surprised that I knew exactly where she wanted to be touched, and how they wanted it touched! I guess they just thought I was ""experienced"", and in fact I was experienced, but also most of them had ""instructed me"" by guiding my fingers the way they wanted. +Most of them would reciprocate by sucking my cock, but only two of them actually let me fuck them- so they got most of my attention. The others would phone me when they got horny and I tried to cooperate if I could, so 5 was enough to keep me busy and I figured I could go back to the theater if I needed to replace one or more of these cunts. +Eventually I told my method to some frat brothers, and they fucked up the process by going there drunk and with others.. and managed to get themselves arrested (probably because they did NOT pay off the theater manager! What a bunch of idiots!). They didn't rat me out though, maybe because they knew they had no evidence or maybe because they had no evidence and the DA wouldn't let them plea bargain out of the charges unless they could prove I was the mastermind. There was no proof I had ever done anything (except set up the boxes, which is creepy but not a crime.) Anyway, no harm no foul. Except for those few guys who were stupid enough to try to do it as a team, they did get sex offender status and were expelled from school. But that actually was fair because they were sex offenders! +I bet any males reading this wonder why there is not some simple way for a girl to tell you what she wants. I still don't know when I meet a new girl. But the ones who go to a porno theater and let an anonymous hand caress their cunt... I know what they want. And some of them want a whole lot more." +836,Ten Quick Tips for Better Sex,IrresistibleBeauty,How To,2007-11-03,2007-11-03,2022-01-04 08:39:28,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/ten-quick-tips-for-better-sex,Veteran call girl gives advice.,"['Anal How-To', 'Bisexuals', 'Fellatio', 'Lovemaking', 'Prostitution', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To']",3.83,"I might as well start earning my keep and living up to my billing. Everything I write is original material, don't ever think I am just repeating a post I see somewhere else on the Net that looks cool. What I tell you comes from everything I've seen and heard. +Here is some news you can use right away. If there were a handful of things I could tell you quickly to help you in your sex life, here they are. +1\. SEX IS 90% BETWEEN THE EARS. It sounds like a cliché. But there are reasons why you see hot guys with ordinary girls and vice versa. Money might be the issue, or compatibility, or mental state, or how much alcohol you've consumed. Or, dare I say it, they might actually be in love. Even if you are with someone you don't necessarily love, but you want it bad, and you end up thinking of some cheerleader from high school you had a crush on to get yourself off, it's still all mental. +2\. SEX WITH SOMEONE YOU GENUINELY LOVE IS BETTER THAN SEX WITH SOMEONE YOU'RE HOT FOR. There is a reason why my ex-husband and girlfriend have been with me since my early-20's, because I genuinely love them, and they are the best fucks in the world as far as I'm concerned. Yes, we started as being hot for one another, but as we grew closer, the sex became more intense. We became freer with our bodies and were willing to try new things. Honestly, if you think sex during marriage is a bore, you need to re-examine your marriage, why you got married, and how into your spouse you truly are. It should be liberating, not enslaving. +3\. DON'T DO ANYTHING HALF-ASSED. If there is something you don't want to do, don't do it. Don't ask your partner to do something he or she is not comfortable with, because it will suck. If your girlfriend is not down with sucking your cock, don't coerce her, don't guilt her, by all means, you have to sell her on the act, not make her do it. She will do it half-heartedly, hating it the whole time, and you will not enjoy it nearly as much as if she enthusiastically got on her knees and pleasured you. Don't do anything if your heart isn't in it, because it not be satisfying at all. +4\. TREAT YOUR PARTNER AS IF HE OR SHE WERE AN ANGEL SENT STRAIGHT FROM HEAVEN, JUST FOR YOU. No one owes you a fuck. No one has to pleasure you. Every person you come into contact with is a present from the gods. Make love to your partner as if he or she was created specifically for you. Even if it's just a drunken one-night stand, even if you're cheating on your spouse, your partner-du-jour did not have to be there with you. If you absolutely needs sex, you can masturbate. No one has to fuck you if they don't want to. +5\. USE YOUR ENTIRE MOUTH WHEN GIVING HEAD. You can tell if a partner doesn't want to suck your cock, they will just put it in their mouths timidly, jack you off if you're lucky, and you will have to make due. Good fellatio involves not just your lips, but the inside of your cheeks, your teeth, your jaw, your esophagus, even your gag reflex. As I said, if you don't want to do it, don't do it and don't let yourself be coerced into it. But if you do, learn to use your entire mouth and throat. Not only will he find pleasure in it, but you'll find pleasure in it too, feeling his long thick cock pushing down your throat, your lips stretch around the base of his shaft. +6\. USE YOUR ENTIRE BODY DURING SEX. Don't rely on just having a big cock to ensure a good fuck, and don't just lay there when he is inside you. Your genitals are full of raw nerve endings that are specifically there to make you cum intensely. You're not going to discover them unless you do some work. And you're not going to enjoy his cock unless you let it fill you deeply, which means letting yourself go and squirming under him, letting it touch every spot inside you. Above all, if you're doing it right, you will want to move around and feel him. You will want to feel him in your mouth, in your pussy, in your ass, between your breasts. The whole body is an erogenous zone if you let it be. +7\. SIZE MATTERS, BUT IT'S NOT THE MOST INPORTANT THING. The vagina is designed to be able to handle only about four to five inches of cock, which means, although a thick healthy cock is a fantastic thing to have, even an average-sized cock will make a woman cum hard. Hence, penis size is important, but not the most important thing. Likewise, women place much of her female ego on the size of her chest, and after several augmentations myself, I am no exception. Size is probably more important to how a girl looks than how a boy fucks. Even so, you can have the fullest, most lovely tits in the bar, but if you don't present them right, they're just bags of fat. You can't just jut them out and expect men to come. They have to be packaged right and part of a complete body. Tits, ass, waist, hips, they all matter, and they all have to work in concert. Size is important, but not the end-all. +8\. DON'T HAVE ANAL SEX WITH FAT PEOPLE. Trust me on this one. There is nothing that kills a hot night more than pulling a finger or cock out of a person's ass, and it is brown. Some might think dirty sanchezes are sexy, but hell no, not me, and not any girl work spending time with. It's almost not worth having anal sex unless your partner is a borderline anorexic, someone you know has a vacant set of intestines. The thinner the partner, the better the anal, because if a person doesn't have to defecate, the anus becomes as pure a sexual orifice as the vagina. Hint: the less you have to spend on dinner, the better the anal. +9\. IF YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT PREGNANCY OR DISEASE, DON'T HAVE SEX AT ALL. I mean this sincerely. Sex was designed by nature to get you knocked up. Humankind is a little different in seeking pleasure, but the end is the same. If this frightens you, if the realization that there are things like AIDS out there bothers you, if you don't want a baby, then don't have sex. I say this because sex is not a necessity. It is a luxury. If you partake, do so with all your might, recklessly, without care. Give yourself completely into it. You don't HAVE to have sex. Masturbate if you have to just get yourself off. It really is okay to say No. Don't feel like you have to give into pressure. Sex is a beautiful thing, but it's not for the timid. If you're scared of getting knocked up or getting a disease, don't try to use condoms to prevent them, or diaphragms. That isn't sex. I rarely use condoms in my line of work, and that is because my clientele is no longer consistent of stray boys from God knows where. I am not afraid of pregnancy or disease for various reasons which I'll talk about later. If you have to discuss contraception in having sex, just don't bother. Just jack off or finger yourself. +10\. EVERYONE IS BISEXUAL. Almost every guy who read this sentence just gasped in horror and said NO WAY I'M NO FAG. Everyone man and woman in this world is designed to have homosexual sex as well as heterosexual. I've said it in different ways, but if you're uncomfortable with something don't partake. But I've met some very macho bisexual men and many very effeminate bisexual women. If a guy says he will do anything to be with you, there's nothing wrong in finding out what ANYTHING means, so long as you don't make him do anything he really doesn't want to do. Dare him, but expect to be dared back. Turnabout is fair play. If you want to watch him suck cock, expect him to want to watch you eat pussy. Don't make it a requirement for sex, if that's the case, you're making ultimatums, conditions, and that takes away from the free exploration of sex. +I hope some of that helps you in your journey through life.

Prostitution is legal in some jurisdictions. Please check your local laws._ +* +Every so often I get a note from someone, asking me how to get into the ""business"". It usually comes from a girl, late-teens, and I don't think the message is necessarily sincere, but it comes from a matter of intrigue. Unless they have the King James Version in hand, almost universally, people are intrigued by what I do, and I understand that. Most are genuinely curious and entertained by me and what I do, and first response is always positive. But once people get to know me and become more educated in what I do, there is a divergence; some remain seduced by me, but the majority, at one point or another, wither away. I cross a line they won't. I make a pretty good living crossing lines most people wouldn't, but this is also who I am. +It is not often that someone with a modicum of success in her chosen field will tell you to not follow her path, but that is what I am telling you, if you are a young girl who thinks what I do is glamorous, if you think prostitution is easy, if you believe selling your body is your right. This is not a profession for the softly composed. Most wizen up fairly quickly and go out and get a job, because they realize a small piece of their souls are broken off and stolen every time they give themselves to someone who sees them as little more than a piece of ass. The rest live in a hell of their own making, of violence and addiction and crime. They didn't choose to do this, someone else chose it for them, but they die like this, and I am thoroughly convinced that the most beautiful women in the history of the world died broken, alone, and miserable. I am a rare exception, and I don't boast about it, because there but for the grace of God... +Having preached enough, if you still want to try your hand at this, I offer ten quick tips for those of you entering the profession. +1\. PICK YOUR PIMP WISELY. Darryl is probably the biggest reason why I'm calling my own shots today, and also the biggest reason why I'm not dead. Not only is Darryl built for protection (he played linebacker at ASU before he tore his knee up), he also has a nose for business. He would fare just as well on Wall Street as he does on THE street. I've been with him for almost 15 years, two of them as husband and wife. He will always be my business partner, briefing my clientele, garnering new clients, weeding out potential troublemakers. He just has this knack for finding partners for me who are clean and with money. We treat this as a business, and he always dresses well, as if he were a CEO. He has a couple other girls working for him, including my Amber, but by now he has honed his talents, and in 2006 we brought in six figures! Other girls aren't so lucky, they have pimps who think it manly to dress nice while they are shivering in a heroin hell. As a species, pimps are bloodsuckers and the lowest form of life on earth, so I am very fortunate to have Darryl, someone who sees this more of a business than an ego trip. Don't get with a pimp just because he can talk the talk. Expect the best right away. The first time he puts you in a compromising position should be the last time. If he is dressing fine while you're strung out, there is something definitely wrong. Trust me, your dad would make a better pimp than 99.99% of the jackasses out there. One last thing: the bigger the mouth on the pimp, the worse he is. Real pimps know how to attract the right kind of attention (clean and moneyed johns) without the wrong kind (police, thugs) coming around. Real pimps take pride in how the woman looks and feels, not himself. Real pimps carry a gun but never even think of pulling it out. Real pimps let their business do the talking. I am proud of Darryl, and yes, he is still the most amazing fuck I ever had (and still have a few times a month, but that's another story). What he lacks in being a solid husband, he more than makes up for in business savvy. +2\. FELLATIO IS AN ART, NOT A SCIENCE. If you're the kind of girl who sucks cock just to make your boyfriend happy, don't sell yourself on your ability to do so. You have to enjoy giving head in order to be good at it. It is an acquired taste. It's something you get better at the more you do it. You'll learn little tricks to make it more appealing to your client; here's one for you, always make eye contact with him when you are pleasuring him with your mouth. It makes it seem there is a connection between you and him, plus men like seeing their cocks disappearing into your mouth and the expression in your eyes as you perform. There is no perfect recipe for the ultimate blowjob, and you won't know the ingredients until you work at it. Soft but strong lips, the ability to ignore your gag reflex, lack of shame, these are a couple. But the bottom line is, if you don't enjoy doing it, your man will tell right away. +3\. RSIE YOUR CLIENTELE TO YOUR OWN LEVEL. If you dress like a $20 hooker, you will get $20 johns. If your clothes suggest you will go into any alley for any nasty deed, you will most certainly find the skuzziest men America has to offer to do those things to you. I learned fast that if you dress like a million bucks, you will make a million bucks. If you talk like a street rat, you will collect street rats. If you act like royalty, you will collect princes. It sounds simplistic, but look down that one street in your city where the streetgirls collect, how are they dressed? Every so often there is one girl who stands out, and she is inherently no prettier than any other girl out there, but she makes an impression because she isn't in a tube top, her breasts aren't sagging to her waist, her shorts aren't cutting off the circulation to her legs. Usually she is a little cleaner, a little more conservative in her clothing, and her head is hanging just a little higher. She is usually quiet, letting her personna talk for her. She isn't walking up to every single car that stops at her light, asking the guy if he wants to party. She is above all that, and she presents herself as such. She will make more in two or three tricks that night than the skuzzy girls who are out there all night long, giving head for $20 a shot, because she presents herself better. +4\. BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WITH THE DRUGS YOU USE. Cocaine ruined my marriage, and I am thankful that's the most it ruined in my life. I tell people I am a recovering addict, but I question that, only because, over the last two or three years, I've been able to partake in a little heroin with my sex and enjoy it without needing it every day. I've seen far too many beautiful people ruin and kill themselves doing what I do because the drugs overwhelmed them. Many start because it's part of the culture, part of the business, part of being a party girl. But these same girls will continue to use it to take the edge off of what they do. Maybe a downer to go right to sleep after a night of work. Maybe some coke here to get themselves motivated, or some painkillers there to numb parts of themselves needing numbing. As I say, this can be a harrowing business, and many girls become addicts because the job can seem like walking into a horror show every single fucking night, and it's all they can do to get through it without screaming their heads off. I am incredibly lucky, I blew a lot of money on coke (Darryl and I estimated we probably blew over a million dollars in narcotics since we've been together), I put myself in many compromising situations, and I never got into deep trouble, knock on wood. I never developed classic tweeking mannerisms, and it never interrupted my health to a point where it would alert people. Then again, I never completely abhorred the profession like many do, so I never did drugs just to get through a date. Now that I call my own shots, I do enjoy my heroin with my sex, maybe once every five or six months. But I am damn lucky—DAMN LUCKY—nothing has happened to me—yet. +5\. IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH A SITUATION, DON'T DO IT. The entire concept of prostitution involves a woman putting herself in vulnerable situations, usually with men who see her at best a pleasurable business transaction, at worse a dirty whore who deserves the worst. Although there is something intriguing in a streetwalker, it takes a certain mentality to follow a stranger, odds are not the prettiest man in town, into a dark alley or a seedy motel, get on her knees before him, and cradle his manhood in her mouth, when he could do anything to her and most likely say every nasty thing to her, then get up and do it over and over every night. Gangbangs and bisexuality and interracial sex and all the things you see on porn sound alluring, but when Jenna Jameson does it, she has full control of the environment--you as a working girl don't. Much of sex is about power, not beauty, not even pleasure, but what men who are failures in their own lives can take control over you. If you do not want to engage in something that you know could end with humiliation or injury or worse, by all means, walk away. It is not worth your life to go to a coke party, get doped up on some bad shit, and let a dozen guys take turns on you, only to pass out, be left for dead, and wake up in a dumpster like so much trash because they didn't want to have to deal with the police over a two-bit slut. Don't do it unless you have some level of confidence that the situation is safe for you. That is why a solid pimp is necessary, who can screen your johns, who can get dope that is safe, and who has a nose for trouble and will come running. Personal experience also helps, and the more you do it, the more you will learn about the possibilities of the male species, what they will and won't do to you. You'll learn to deal with more complex situations, and hence you have a small degree of control. Still, if you are unsure, don't do it. +6\. EXPECT TO BE SHUNNED BY FAMILY. I haven't spoken to my father since I was 16, almost 20 years. He sees my mother in my face and can't imagine how she could be such an angel of a woman and me be such a whore. My big brother is one of the best friends I ever had, but my little brother, who has had a crush on me since we were kids, still treats me like a piece of ass and goes back and forth from trying to talk me into bed to cursing me out for being a slut. My mother died a while back, and though she knew what I do, and though I know it broke her heart, she always treated me like a tragic baby sister, wanting to be the one I talk to about whatever is going on in my life, no one else ever knowing. My family is a mix, and lest I remind you, I am 35, divorced, and without children. If you are a teen, expect your family to disown you, to talk down about you, to argue, to curse, to kick you out until you clean yourself up. To be honest, I couldn't imagine parents who wouldn't kick their kids out if they were living a criminal adolescence. Any woman who sells her body for a living, whether she is a streetwalker, model, stripper, actress, inherently will never have sound marriages or long-term relationships with men, friendly, sexual, or otherwise. It is what it is, because at some point, every man, no matter how understanding, will demand a certain level of loyalty, and it is impossible to prove that to a man when you are giving yourself to others. No relationship can last but a few weeks. That is why dirty girls don't have real friends, they tend to keep with ""their own kind"", people in the same situation. That is why many strippers are temporary lesbians, because men sicken them and they seek understanding for what they do by someone who is in it with them. That is why Amber and Darryl are my new family, my girlfriend and my pimp, my future spouse and my ex-husband. Again, I count my blessings for having these few people as constants in my life, most are not so lucky. I gave up my relationship with my father for this, and there are times when my heart breaks because I would love to call him, but I can't. I wish my baby brother saw me as a sister and not a piece of ass. +7\. NEVER CONDUCT BUSINESS AT HOME. You don't want your clientele to ever have the ability to see you when you don't want them to. Like any other business, success in prostitution involves your ability to lessen the unforeseeable, to maintain professionalism and control of all aspects. Unless you are bringing over someone you deeply trust (and I strongly recommend you do NOT take a dear friend and turn him into a client, it will break your heart every time), always conduct business elsewhere. Streetwalkers know this, that's why they're on the street and in hotel rooms and not selling out of their homes. Escorts know this, that is why business is conducted through agencies and most of the time involve meeting at a neutral location. Whether you enjoy or detest this job, you have to be able to physically separate yourself from it when you are done for the night. You have to feel that you will never have to see the guy you were just with again unless you choose or by dumb chance. Never give a phone number or address. If your john wants you again, let him go through your agency or pimp. Keep all such encounters on a business level, and I know it's a real tough thing to do. Guys will fall in love with you and become possessive and want you; even you will occasionally feel a bond between you and your partner, it's bound to happen, it's sex, for crying out loud. But you must keep your wits about yourself. It is a business. Like any other job, leave your job at the office, don't take it home with you. +8\. REMEMBER YOUR ALIASES. My clients all know me by the name Tiffany, and if they know me with any degree of depth, they know me as Tiffany Christian. I'm not telling you this so you can find me and gain my services, but to tell you that you need to create a separate personna, a fake identity, a name. You have to do this. You don't want to attach your personal name to anything you do, you don't want anyone knowing anything more about you than you need them to know. The police can find twenty girls on the street names Diamond, but they have a much harder time tracking Julia Gutierrez. Your name is your anonymity. I've had other aliases, but you need to settle on one, because if you throw out three names--Topaz, Layla, and Lee are three I used to be known as--it becomes harder to keep track of what you've done, if Topaz was with a drugdealer and Layla witnessed an assault. What's more, it will sound almost schizophrenic, but when you do this, you create a separate personality. If you knew me, and you knew Tiffany Christian, you would note several definite differences in character; for instance, Olivia tends to be bookish, articulate, and she loves good conversation--Tiffany talks like a nympho ditz who lets her partner feel smart. Olivia is a bit of a slob because when she comes home from work, she is there to relax; Tiffany is meticulous and subtlely controlling, every detail flawless, every aspect that she can control is. Olivia comes across as a feeling and caring person, Tiffany can only think of sex and what new ways she can get herself and her partner off, no matter who gets hurt. I know I've created my own little Brechtian drama in my own head, having to slip into my Tiffany skin in order to perform. Someone was asking me about that just the other day, why I don't do this every single day, and I said because I need a few hours to step out of being Tiffany and return to myself for a while, then to get myself back into Tiffany. That is a necessity with me, because if I sink into Tiffany for too long, I don't return easily, and that is when I get into real trouble, like addiction or violence. I love being Olivia, and I haven't descended completely into Tiffany for about seven years now. For a night or two or even a long weekend, Tiffany can prowl, and it's fun being her, but at the end of the day, I love Olivia. +9\. YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO SAY NO. Don't ever think, just because some guy paid to be inside you, you've lost the right to say NO. You are not a slave. You are a woman, a beautiful human being who chooses to present her body in a provocative manner in the hope of selling it. You are not an animal. You are what poets dream about. You are an object of desire. You do have a small degree of control. Use it. You are not a prude for saying NO to a gentlemen who is unclean and you can sense means you harm--quite the contrary, saying NO in such instances is proof of your intelligence! If a guy is into a rape fantasy, and he is frightening you, walk away as fast as you can. Fortunately for me, I have a pimp who is really looking out for me and screens my partners, and he has done so remarkably well, whether it's now with computer sophistication or back then with street smarts. He knows the lines I have drawn, and he doesn't coerce me into doing anything I don't want to do. Many times, though, in the heat of the moment, you are alone with a man or a group of men who frighten you. You don't have to do it. You are not a slave. If you fear pregnancy, say NO if your partner refuses the condom. If he is being a real asshole and is being aggressive, give him his money back and go home. NO means NO, even if you are a prostitute. +10\. IF YOU CAN'T LOOK YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR, STOP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING. That's true for anyone in any endeavor. But if you come home, heart still racing because the speed you took earlier is still raging through you, vagina raw, breasts bruised, dress torn, and you look in the mirror and don't like what you see, stop doing it. You are doing things that society looks down upon, and no matter how hot you look, no matter how much you get for your efforts, no matter how famous or infamous you become, you are still breaking a Commandment, you are giving God the middle finger. Amber is a screamer in bed, even with me, and her eyes are shut tight, because she tells me, every time she is with a partner, every time she feels her pussy filled, she sees the ugly and laughing faces of about seven teenagers who raped her when she was in high school. She is a gorgeous woman who now works with me and my Darryl, I've known her for a decade, but her addictions hit her a little harder than it did me, and she has a couple of the tweeker mannerisms I seem to have avoided. She should stop what she is doing, but she doesn't know anything else except to spread her legs. She has a tough time looking herself in the mirror, and she has tried to get out if it the only way she can think of, marriage. Well, three divorces and two children she lost custody of, a high-school dropout who can barely read her name, and a body still vivacious enough to draw four figures a night, and it's clear that, though she needs to get out, she never will. She is very unhappy, and her thing these days is painkillers. She will die before she is 40, I am convinced of it, which is nothing new, as I have said, the most beautiful women in the history of mankind all died broken. +Above all, I do not recommend my lifestyle to anyone out there. But if you are convinced that you should try, I hope this helps. Write to me and tell me how it goes." +838,Testing Story Formatting,Weird Harold,How To,2002-08-20,2002-08-20,2022-01-04 08:39:30,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/testing-story-formatting,Check how your story will look on Lit before submitting it.,"['File', 'Html', 'Story', 'Word Processor']",4.55,"This tutorial is in response to a thread on the Bulletin board regarding formatting problems with a story where the author had included the HTML codes for Italics in the text to save Laurel time in preparing the story for posting. +What follows is a way for authors to preview stories on their computer before submitting them.

Gorgeous, sexy, smart, everything you want in a date or partner. You can hardly wait to get them out on a date, or better yet to get them into your bed. +Just one problem. They've got kids. +This is intended mainly for those who don't have children of their own and are dating single parents. If both partners have kids, it becomes even more complicated and more coordination may be necessary. However, I personally haven't been in that situation, so I'm offering advice from the point of view of a single mom whose partner has no children. +Dating a single parent isn't easy. It can be hard enough for people to coordinate seeing each other around other commitments like work, friends, family, and so on. When dating a single parent, add to those commitments sick children, school concerts or conferences, and the obvious need to find someone to watch the kids before leaving the house, depending on how old the kids are. When dating moves into the bedroom for two people without children, often either partner's home is available. When dating a single parent, their house may be off-limits, especially if kids are there with a sitter. Even when the kids are in bed asleep, your date may not be comfortable with any ""activity""; what if the kids wake up? +For some single parents, the beginning stages of dating may be the easiest. I know that was true for me. I'd come out of a messy marriage, through a divorce, and I wasn't about to trust anyone in a relationship, especially if that meant introducing them to my kids. So finding a sitter or persuading my ex or his parents to take the kids overnight so I could go out for dinner or to a bar with a guy was pretty easy. And most of the guys I dated that way gave up after one or two dates, when they figured out that I wasn't going to dump my kids on their father or grandparents every single weekend. +If things move beyond that initial stage, it becomes more complicated. Can your object of desire see you as often as you'd both like? Probably not, unless they have family members who are willing to help out or a good sitter. Speaking of sitters, raising kids costs money, and some sitters earn more an hour than I do. If this person is important enough to you that you want to spend time with them, offer to pay, or at least chip in, for the sitter, if your own income and expenses allow. At least offer to help find a sitter if they don't already have a regular one. They may turn you down, but even if they do they'll likely appreciate the gesture. +When dating moves to relationship, people sometimes want to spend time together other than out on dates. Sitting on the couch watching a movie together, experimenting in the kitchen to make a new dessert... and, oh yeah, sex. If you're dating a single parent, these times may have to be at your place, or they may have to send their kids elsewhere when you go to their place. Some parents aren't comfortable with new partners meeting their kids, so other arrangements have to be made. And if a child gets sick or the sitter or family member bails, plans with you may have to be canceled. +When should you meet her kids? There are plenty of articles and advice on this. Some recommend a set amount of time; some say ""when a commitment is made between you"". Personally, I say it depends. +When I started dating, I didn't plan on my kids meeting anyone. I wasn't planning on anything necessarily long-term, so to me it made no sense for my kids to meet a man who wasn't going to be an ongoing part of our lives. Then, about six months after my separation, the man I was seeing told me, ""Once your divorce is final, I want you to be with me, and I want to help you raise those kids of yours."" Intended, and taken, as a proposal. So I gradually introduced my children to him, first letting them speak to each other on speakerphone, then having him come to our home for a brief introduction before their father picked them up for the weekend, and finally going with him to a barbecue at his boss's house. +That's when things went south. He told me the day after the barbecue that he felt I'd spent too much time with my kids. Hello? I'm their mother, and I'd been told that if they went to the barbecue I had to keep an eye on them. Regardless of how I felt about this man, my children were more important. And I didn't like the idea of dating someone who would complain about how much attention I paid to my kids. So I ended it. +If you're dating a single parent, it's important to remember that ""parent"" is an important part of their description. Their kids have to come first, almost always, and sometimes that means a date or partner comes in a distant second or even third. (Hey, we parents have to fit ourselves in there somewhere!) If you feel like you're being ignored in favor of the kids and it's causing a real problem, talk to your date/partner about it calmly: ""I've noticed that lately you've been preferring to take the kids to the park instead of finding a sitter so we can go out to lunch. Is there a problem between us?"" as opposed to, ""You spend too much time with your kids. Don't you give a crap about me?"" +So back to the ""when to introduce"" question. The guy I mentioned met my kids only after he'd sort-of proposed. And it didn't go well, and my kids were left feeling a bit lost, especially since they'd also met his 20-year-old daughter and had hit it off with her. So I resolved not to introduce my kids to anyone else. +A few months later, I broke that resolution. I was dating a trucker who happened to be in town unexpectedly and wanted to take me out to dinner. When I told him I couldn't go on such short notice because of my kids, he invited them along. That was the one and only time they met him, neither particularly liked him, and I ended up regretting the whole evening. +So although I kept seeing that guy for a few more months, I was careful not to bring the kids into it again. And when he and I decided to stop seeing each other, I again resolved not to let the guys I dated meet my kids, or in a couple of cases even find out that I had kids. +Then I met my current partner. We met at the home of a mutual friend, and there was instant attraction. Two days later, he asked if he could come see me. I told him my kids were home; I wanted to see him, but wanted to stick to my resolution. But ultimately he showed up anyway. I introduced him to my kids, told them he was there to watch a movie and would probably go home afterward (even though he lived two hours away), and sent them to bed. He didn't go home; the next morning when the kids got up, he was sleeping on the couch. They didn't seem to mind. I did. +A few days later, he called and said he'd been talking to his sister, a single mom who was dating a single dad, and she'd recommended that we not bring him around the kids for at least a few months, because otherwise it might confuse them. He and I agreed that we would wait a while before he saw the kids again. But it didn't work out that way. Our relationship moved at warp speed, and because of the distance we live from each other there were times that he was only able to see me during the week, when he had days off. When my kids were home. So they got to know him and he got to know them sooner than I would have liked, but it was clear that with him, it was the right thing to do. Now, nearly eight months after we met, we're planning to move in together, and my kids consider him their ""half-dad"", as my older one puts it. +So in terms of when you should meet your Mr. or Ms. Right's children, I think there are too many factors to give one answer. But whenever you meet them, the decision should be based in small part on your own comfort with the idea, and in large part on their comfort and their knowledge of their children. +Dating a single parent isn't easy. But if you respect that they have children, honor their boundaries, and allow for the unexpected, it isn't as complicated as it seems." +841,Those Little Blue Pills,traveller1945,How To,2022-01-02,2022-01-02,2022-01-04 08:40:41,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/those-little-blue-pills,Two work colleagues discuss those little blue pills.,[''],4.29,"""Peter says you're the man to talk to about Viagra"". +That's a conversation stopper, and sure enough, several ears perked up at the mention of the V word. It was the final evening of a three-day training course relating to revised legislation on pension and investment sales. It was aimed at senior management so we were a mature crowd, some of those gathered in the room had been in the trade for over thirty years. +Jane and Kelly, two good female colleagues of mine, had pushed their way in to the group I was chatting with and mischievously announced to all and sundry that I was the man. +It was after 10pm and the drinks had been flowing all evening. Fifteen or sixteen people remained in the public bar of a Kent country hotel, most of them were known to me and a half dozen of them were close friends. Several lightweights had already retired to bed to be fresh for tomorrow morning's closing session, but the usual suspects remained. +I could see Peter (who is usually one of my very good friends) smirking at me from another cluster gathered nearer to the bar. ""What a bastard! he's supposed to be my mate, I'll bet he didn't tell you the full story. Do I look like a V..... customer? I'm a lusty, testosterone-fuelled, stag of a man."" +""He reckons you're an addict"" said Jane, ""can't perform without them"". At which point Peter intervened to say that Jane was embellishing and that he had merely mentioned that I had some knowledge of the subject. +By now a crowd had closed in, eager to learn more. ""Do tell"" said another woman called Sue who managed the floor above me, ""I'm intrigued"". +""Come on, don't be shy"" said another manager as the pack drew closer. +""Ok"" said I, ""But only because I need to stop this load of bollocks spreading round the country. The true version, the boring version, is that Kate's father had prostate cancer about twelve years ago and they successfully operated on him and fortunately he's still alive and kicking today. But that's an operation that can play havoc with you. There's a lot of clockwork to fuck up down there and if they nick something you can end up dribbling in your pants or with a permanently limp noodle. Unfortunately for him, he got both"". +""The upshot of all of that was that the surgeon recommended V..... and now he has a permanent prescription for the generic equivalent. The NHS won't pay V..... prices. He's 75 now and they give him more than he needs. So about two years ago he offered me some, and naturally I turned him down, said I didn't need them, but later that evening he slipped me two and winked and said I should give them a try. So I did."" +""Could you tell the difference?"" said another woman called Helen. She was another good friend, in fact she was an inner circle friend who I'd known for years. We'd shared an office for six years and I'd worked on many cases with her and even met her husband. We knew things about each other that our respective partners didn't know and I had sought her advice on numerous personal issues. +We also had a deeper, more unfortunate history in that I'd had sex with her at a similar training course in London two years ago. Naturally we skated around any awkward discussion of that episode since then but it had been a memorable occasion. +Yeah, I could"" I replied,"" they gave me a pumping headache and turned my face bright red. I didn't tell Kate and she never commented afterwards so they couldn't have been all that special."" +""Come on"" said Ryan Connolly, ""they must have done something, people pay a fortune for them."" +""Well yeah, I'm sure they do what it says on the tin, but If you haven't got a problem down there then what can they really do? They don't make your old man any bigger, they don't keep you going all night, they're just for problem cases and I'm not there yet, I'm only 47. You wouldn't take an aspirin if you didn't have a headache would you?"" +Another guy intervened to say that he couldn't imagine his father-in law being so liberal but I said that's how Kate's parents were. By way of contrast, my own parents had regarded sex as a subject never to be raised in front of the children. +I managed to field a few more intimate questions and wicked comments without revealing too much and then ducked over to the bar to buy a round of drinks even though it wasn't my turn yet. ""Bastard"" I repeated to Peter who protested his innocence. +""A few of those ladies had a gleam in their eye"" he commented, ""there's nothing like sex talk to get them fired up, they won't sleep easy tonight."" +Over the next hour or so the crowd thinned out until there were only six of us, then only four or us. At 1.15 Peter announced that he'd had enough and we simultaneously agreed to retire for the evening. I was on my feet heading for the lift when I felt a slight pull on my shirt and looked back to see Helen making a variety of clumsy gestures meaning that I should hang back. +""I need to speak to you, go to the gents in reception then come back here"". The words came out in a rush and I stared at her for a few seconds but she looked so anxious that I just agreed ""Ok"" and did as she asked. +She was waiting for me when I exited the gents. ""I want to speak to you about what you were talking about earlier, were you being straight about it?"" +""You mean the V.....? What do you want to know?"" +""You were very dismissive, did they really not do anything for you?"" +""Forget all that, they're a game-changer. I'm a frigging convert, what do you want to know?"" +""I knew it"" she said ""I've known you long enough to know when you're only telling half the story. I need some advice.... It's about Andy. That's all, I promise."" +The door to the public bar was already closed and a grateful barman was clearing up within. There were only two small tables in the reception area, a couple were attempting a jigsaw at one table and a teenage girl was texting rapidly at the other. +""Come on, there must be resident's lounge around here, or can we....should we go upstairs? Don't misunderstand me, this is important. I have to know"" +""My room or yours?"" I realised that I was more than prepared to take advantage of a vulnerable woman. +""Yours"" she said"" I've got Hilary on one side of me and James Gradwell on the other side"". +""I don't know who I've got, I'm in 306, let me go there first, you come up in two or three minutes, I won't close the door properly. Make sure no one sees you."" +As soon as I reached my room I leapt into the bathroom. Was there a chance that I might be fucking Helen again? I wasn't sure but I quickly washed my cock, squirted deodorant under my arms and put a tiny amount of after-shave on. Nothing too obvious, then I waited. +The door opened only as much as was necessary and Helen slid in. ""Please don't get any ideas, I just want you to explain a few things. I need to ask you a few questions? I'm so confused and feeling so down at the moment I need to know if there's anything I can do."" +""Sex?"" +""Yes"" +""You're not getting enough?"" I smiled as I said it. +""Don't joke, I'm not getting any. I want you to tell me about V....., I need to know if it'll help Andy"" +She told me her tale, more awkwardly than I retell it here, but the quick version is that her husband Andy was 57, seven years older than her. His erections had been slowly failing for years but he wouldn't discuss it. It had started a few years ago when his penis would wither inside her and he'd lie on his back and somehow make her feel that she was to blame. She could go down on him for ten minutes or more but he couldn't stay hard. +Now he was staying up late at night making excuses about wanting to watch a late film. If she reached across to him during the night to fondle his balls he would turn his back on her and say he was tired. She would reach for him in the early morning, he still had firm erections even in his sleep, but within minutes there was nothing there and he would quickly get out of bed to shower. +She'd tried walking around in the underwear he used to like, tried to get in the shower with him and she'd done other stuff that she didn't want to talk about, but he wouldn't co-operate with anything and now she felt that they were drifting apart. She loved him but she couldn't go on like this. +I recalled our one night together, she had been surprisingly active and very vocal. We were drunk but she was the one who had initiated it. I remembered how physical she had been when she was on top of me, thrusting hard and squeezing her tits and playing with her clit. Maybe the fact that she wasn't being properly fucked way back then accounted for her behaviour that night +She had orgasmed in my face and had almost pulled my hair out by the roots. Her language and her squeals had surprised me, I'd had noisy partners before but I suspect that they were mainly faking it, I was convinced that Helen's reactions had been genuine as she rolled around the bed mauling herself. +She asked if I'd ever had any similar problems. My first inclination was to say not but then I admitted to having a few failures of my own. Kate & I had had a great sex life for over twenty years, we still did, but in recent years it wasn't a 100% success all the time. Nowhere near as bad as Andy but I could sometimes feel my erection fading so I would thrust like crazy and shoot my load within the first few minutes. I could also kick-start it again by rolling out of the saddle, lying back for a few minutes and thinking about something else/anything else and that usually helped me start again. +Fortunately Kate was very understanding, she worked for the NHS in a non- clinical role, but her job exposed her to lots of experts and lots of knowledgeable discussions. She would feel my dick deflate inside her but she didn't make a fuss about it. She'd say ""were you thinking of something else then?"" or she'd just lie still on top of me and kiss me until I went stiff again. +""You do know that a lot of it is in the mind?"" Helen nodded, she'd read up on the subject. +""The first thing a doctor will ask him is whether he gets erections when he's asleep, if he does then the machinery is ok, it's just a confidence thing, mind over matter. It's a bit like a self-fulfilling prophecy, the second I start thinking about whether I'm going to cum is the second that I start to lose it. What about when he's drunk? It's much easier to relax then and not think about it."" +""I know all that"" she said petulantly ""nothing is working, I just need to know if V..... will help him and where you get it from and what you do with it."" I can't stand this much longer, it's killing both of us."" +""What about work, is he stressed out?"" I knew he was a TV aerial erector working for himself, so I didn't think that was likely. +""No, it's a good business, he earns as much as me"" +""I think you need to get him to talk about it, get him to accept there's a problem but tell him it's no big deal. He can't have missed the erectile dysfunction adverts on TV, every single man will go through this at some stage, it's just that we blokes don't like to admit it."" Then the two of you will have to agree the solution. Let me tell you, he only needs to take one of those little babies and he'll feel like a teenager again. +""So what should I do, buy a bottle of them and leave them on his bedside table or should I just drop one in his cocoa before he goes to bed, how do I get the ball rolling? +""I can't answer that because I don't know him like you do. Why don't you tell him that your best friend at work is going through the same problems but they've done something about it. Tell him she's given you one tablet to see if it works. Tell him that half the women in your office have husbands who use them. Persuade him to take it then maybe you could watch Forty Shades of Grey together or try on a few new bikinis, saunter round the bedroom in them and ask him which one he likes best."" +""He'd probably run a mile if I did that....and it's fifty shades not forty, you're thinking of Forty Shades of Green"" +""He won't be able to run, he'll have a massive stonker hiding in his trousers"" +""Surely it'll just make him feel worse, it's like accusing him of not being man enough"" +""Rubbish, do you feel inferior when you put your contact lenses in? Does a woman with silicone breasts feel better or worse than she did before. What about dental implants, face lifts and the rest, you're just improving on what nature first gave you. Let me tell you this, when Andy's dick is bright purple and he's been on top of you for twenty minutes the last thing he'll be feeling is unmanly"" +""What did you do? Did you tell Kate before you took that first one?"" +""No, I didn't tell Kate because I didn't expect it to work as well as it did. I wasn't having any real problem so I was just curious and it was a freebie."" +""And then what?"" +Right, I'll tell you but it's going to be a bit graphic so don't be offended. I won't be using the official terminology here, you won't be getting a science lecture. More like a dirty phone call"" +""Number one, it worked like you won't believe. It was like turning the clock back twenty five years when you could stay hard for ages, shoot your load and be hard again an hour later. The first tablet that I got from Kate's dad I used when we went to Ireland for my cousin's wedding. The hotel gave us the room as soon as we checked in and we went to bed so that we'd be bright & breezy when we met the crowd later that day."" +""We didn't go to sleep straight away, When Kate came out of the bathroom wearing a flimsy black satin getup and stockings I realised that we were going to have an early session so I dug one of the tablets out of my shaving bag and put it under the pillow."" +""You're supposed to take these tablets up to an hour before but, like I said, I didn't always have a problem so I took it just as Kate went down on me. It was a hundred milligram tablet which was far too much."" +""So what do you mean -- far too much"" +""I wasn't kidding about the headache and the bright red face and the heart racing, I should have only taken half a tablet. I'll tell you something else, I was lying about it not making your dick bigger. It might not make it longer.... but girthwise, it felt like it was trying to burst out of its skin, it was almost painful. It was so rigid you wouldn't believe it, just like wood, that's what they say in the porno's isn't it? I've got wood"". +""I think you've got wood now"" said Helen and it was true, all this sex talk had woken up my cock and it was trapped in the leg of my jeans trying to unravel itself. +I squirmed around and made myself more comfortable and Helen laughed and said not to hide it, ""don't forget I've seen it before....I've felt it before, you can take those jeans off if you want and remind me what one looks like"". +I didn't respond but she leaned towards me and ran her fingers up the zip of my trousers and felt the hardness beneath the fabric. I tried to laugh it off and said that I was here in a clinical role and that I shouldn't get involved with my patient. But I knew without any doubt that I was going to fuck Helen tonight and I relished that thought. +""I love it when you talk dirty Dr Bailey, tell me about the hotel then, tell me what difference it made when you and Kate had sex using that tablet."" +""Do you want to hear the full gory detail? In very basic terms"" +""I want to hear about every move, every orgasm, every scream."" She took my hand and laid it on her groin, she was wearing khaki jeans and I dragged one finger along the seam that overlaid her slit. +""I think that you might have to sort me out tonight"", She stroked my cock with the flat of her palm and said ""you'll never get to sleep with this"". +I placed my hand on top of hers, it took a mighty effort on my part not to reach out and climb on top of her. ""Here goes then, you asked for it. We're always trying to vary things but there's always been a basic blueprint. That's if you forget about the occasions when we're just having a quickie, you know, when the whole job is finished in five minutes."" +""First of all, it was a warm day, we're on top of the sheets, both undressed apart from the fact that Kate is only wearing stay up stockings. She goes down on me, sucking and pulling on me until I'm almost about to shoot my load, I stop her for a few minutes and then she goes down on me again for a few more minutes until I stop her again. We mess around for another few minutes and then she goes down on me again. When I couldn't take anymore I went down on her, tongue, fingers, whatever, until she came. She's got her hands around the back of my head so I can hardly draw breath and she's bucking like a wild thing."" +""All of a sudden I can feel this pill kicking in. My cock felt so bloated that it didn't even feel like it was mine and that's at the very moment that Kate wants me to fuck her quite hard and fast before her orgasm disappears. She's on her knees holding on to the headboard, I'm behind her and all I can hear is slap, slap, slap, slap as I'm ploughing into her, and it's the best feeling I've had in years. It felt like I was so far inside her that I was going to come out the other side. She's talking filthy, I'm pulling her head back by her hair and the bed is screeching like crazy. Then after a few mad minutes, long after her orgasm has faded, she calms down, and then we slowed things down, changed positions, you know."" +""Oh my god"" Helen was squirming on the bed. ""This is reminding me of Richmond, that was so wild"" +I pretended that it was a distant drunken memory. ""Was that how it was in Richmond? We were quite drunk, I remember that you seemed to be in charge that night and you made a lot of noise. I bet the folks next door thought you were being murdered"" +""Oh god, what a night, you still owe me for a new pair of knickers, can you remember ripping my posh ones to shreds? I came twice, so did you. I probably haven't come since... if you don't count the DIY ones"" +""What a waste"" I said. You should have rung me, I can do house visits"". +""I might do if these pills don't work."" +""Look, you've sidetracked me now, where was I? Anyway, after she's cum we usually try to mix things up a bit, Kate goes on top or on her tummy or on her side. We stop and start, talk, laugh, watch porn, change positions, anything really. +""So that's exactly what we did in Wicklow, I kept stopping and starting and turning her over because I was trying to show her that I could last for ever. Eventually she'd had enough - there's a limit isn't there? so she grabbed my arse with both hands and pulled me right into her and I busted into her until I came"" +""That's how it's been for a while now. I used to take them just to enhance things but the problem with that is that they can be quite addictive. I don't want quickies any more. We're like teenagers again. A few months ago we did just about everything possible and then we stopped for a while and I decided to shave Kate's fanny using lube and my razor - that was because we were going to Spain for ten days. After she'd washed it all clean she sat on the edge of the bed and leaned back and put her legs up in the air while I stood up and drilled her and then I came on her belly which I never ever do. Those pills make me feel as if I can do anything. Yesterday we finished a session by going into the bathroom, she held on to the sink and watched me in the mirror whilst I did her from behind."" +""I know that it probably sounds like we have some kind of porn mag life but we really don't and things don't always go to plan. Before I started using these man pills if I felt that my dick was going soft I would speed up and get it done before it went fully slack. That meant we were finished in just a few minutes which is pretty crap for both of us and so that's where the little pills have started to become very handy. But there are still occasions when we just spoon together, or sometimes Kate doesn't want sex so she'll tug me off until I shoot my load and then we fall asleep. Another one of her bad habits is that she gets carried away when she's on top and she makes me cum too early. It's not as important now though, I just wait a while and do her all over again. +""I can only tell you what they do for me because it sounds as if I'm nowhere near as bad as Andy is. They might only give him an average hard-on. I honestly don't need them all the time but if we're having a full session, say a Saturday or Sunday morning or on holiday or if we're away for a weekend in a nice hotel I'll take half a tablet just when we're starting off."" +""Does Kate know that you take them now?"" +""Oh yeah, we don't have many secrets. I don't make any announcements about whether or not I've had one and she doesn't ask any questions. She's getting good sex so why would she look a gift horse in the mouth. That would be like me upsetting the apple cart by asking how much she paid for a dress or for make-up or for lacy undies. I'm just happy that she makes an effort and looks good so I leave it at that"" +Anyway I buy them on the internet and we share all our bank accounts so I can't hide anything. She asked me when she was checking the statements. I just said yeah, those are those man pills we talked about"". +""Can she tell the difference?"" +I think so. Providing I don't spoil things by shooting my load too early I can stay erect for a whole lot longer. Don't get me wrong, that doesn't mean that I can spend all that time shagging, these things don't give you any extra energy or make you a great lover. It just means that I can take my time and not go soft. Kate can go on top, then on her knees, then on her stomach and all the time we can be talking and messing around. +""Does it just work once or can you go again?"" +""That can vary, once I've nodded off I'm like a dead man until morning but if we have sex during the day, let's say you're on holiday and you've just come back from the pool in the afternoon, then we often go at it again. I love seconds...it's so much better the second time."" +""Seconds"" she lingered over the word, ""Is that what we had? seconds"" She rubbed her groin with the flat of her palm. ""Lucky Kate, I've lost count of the times I've relived that night"" +I'll tell you what the big giveaway for Kate is though, after I've cum I can still carry on shagging for another couple of minute before I go soft. Also, an hour or so later if I'm walking round the bedroom or if I'm in the shower my dick looks like it belongs to someone else. Even though my hard-on has gone down it's still fat and meaty instead of looking like a dried up slug. +Helen reached for my cock once more, ""bigger than this?"" +""Maybe you'll find out very soon if you carry on like that"" +""Does it not make it a bit awkward"" said Helen, ""do you not lose the spontaneity. There's a sexy mood developing, clothes start coming off and then the woman finds that she's got to come back in thirty minutes."" +""No, you're wrong there, have you never heard of foreplay? Andy has a pill waiting by the side of the bed, you let him go down on you and by the time you've come in his face he'll have a cock like a baby's arm"". +""So you say, but are they very expensive"" +""Well, first of all nobody buys V....., that's like buying Panadol for a quid when you can buy paracetamol for twenty pence. I paid eighty quid for forty eight Sildenafil including free postage, I buy the biggest size and cut them in half so that's ninety six nights of great sex. I don't always use one so that lot has lasted me a good while and there's still some left. That's less than a pound for a good ride, nearly as cheap as a Durex but a lot more fun."" +""I thought the internet was where you end up buying fake stuff that doesn't work."" +""The big chemist chains all sell them on the internet but they're expensive. You might get fleeced if you try and cut corners so you're better to go somewhere in the middle. There are plenty of smaller legitimate sellers and it'll be obvious when you've got the right product. It's not like buying wrinkle cream, you'll know you've bought the good stuff when Andy's been bouncing on top of you for twenty minutes and then when he wakes you up an hour later for round two you'll soon be a believer."" +""What about your own doctor? Do these people inform your doctor? Andy wouldn't ever want anything in his records."" +""Nah, just an online survey from the retailer to cover his arse. I think they might ask if you've discussed it with your doctor. How you answer that question is up to you."" +I gave her the name of the site I'd used and then I went into the bathroom and came back with two pills still in their foil bubbles.

""They work quicker if you crunch them"". +I began to unbutton my shirt. ""Why don't you take that bra off and see if I recognise anything"" +Helen reached behind and unsnapped her bra in a split second and let her two heavy breasts hang free, ""look familiar?"" she taunted. +Then she slowly reached for my zip and we collapsed clumsily on to the bed.

Unexpected caresses, without getting too intense, can also lead to a more pleasurable experience. Both parties should be clean and comfortable before consummation. Any limits or agreements should be clearly expressed before the first article of clothing is removed. *For the self-control captain and /or to focus fully on pleasing, consider staying clothed for this portion of the evening's events. Tactile variety can bring another dimension to the act and self-control is very sexy. +Cleanliness is key to a pleasurable experience. Take a little time for cuticle care or opt for nitrile or latex gloves to ensure a smooth playtime. Consider oral health care and ladies - make sure you are fresh, clean and coifed to your partner's preferences. +Even something as natural as cunnilingus requires agreement on both sides as to what machinations are and are not acceptable. Will toys be involved? Restraints? Always play safe, sane and consensually and have a safe word and signal in place. +Depending on your preferences you may want your pleaser to jump right in or you may want to wake your body up before that initial carnal contact. I'm going to share from the perspective of a slow burn Señorita and hopefully cover a few bases while I'm at it. +Working women through waves of pleasure can be stimulating on so many levels. Our subject likes that whole body tingle and blood rushing to all the right places before her lover tastes the sweetness they've induced. Think kisses on the neck and over the shoulders with whispers and bites in between. Wake up the skin by following the path of contact, be it a bare hand, feather, or leather if you prefer! Wartenberg Pin Wheels and Violet wands also work well here. Vary between strong and gentle pressure with fingertips over the ribs and belly. Take care if your lady is ticklish. +Enjoy the sensations ladies, so often we are taken out of the experience by an over active and critical mind. This moment is all about you, your lover wants you to enjoy every minute of it, so put your to-do list and worries away. Concentrate on where these sensations are coming from and how close they are to softer, more sensitive flesh. +Hooray for Boobies! Like the elusive unicorn, there are women who can get off on nipple stimulation alone while a stiff breeze puts others off so it is important to know your partner's limits before diving between these mountaintops. +She's Got Legs - And after the intro I hope you know they are silky smooth and ready for attention. The back of the knee is one of those gathering places for good vibes to shiver up and down from, so play around with this area, grabbing the calves and light fingernails up and down the thigh can help you find the rhythm she's rolling with, don't get sucked into one area of focus when going down, there's a whole body of flesh begging to be caressed. And if she's close but you want to prolong the experience, you can stimulate her skin without pushing her over the edge. +Slow, purposeful strokes - Banter abounds about the elusive erogenous zone of the clitoris and I find the easiest way to get this little button out to play is to take slow, broad strokes while paying particularly close attention to the engorgement of this mighty ball of nerves. She can be shy and temperamental, but the right pressure, texture and attention can take meek pleasure experience and turn it into toe curling ecstasy. Love the labia. It's true, the clitoris actually reaches her magic down the length of those luscious lips; so don't ignore the doorway to wonderment here. +Second Verse, Same as the First: But with a bit of a twist, no pun intended. The sister hot spot of the clitoris is notorious for it's positioning as well. But G-spot stimulation needs little more than those slow strokes and a come hither curl, massaging this melt inducing internal point can be done in time with the attentions of either tongue or fingertips elsewhere on the body. +A word on preference: Some ladies want to feel like they're already filled with that hot meat injection, so two or three fingers probing deep inside feels nice... but some women want to experience the pressure build, insides throbbing and the tease of a g-spot tickle. Circling that open space with just a bit of pressure can be a maddening delight. +Finally, unless you're going into the game knowing this is an edging exercise, in the immortal words of Mortal Kombat, ""Finish her!"" +Some women get incredibly sensitive when they orgasm and need a break from direct stimulation, some want to be pushed to climbing the walls. Sometimes there is a sweet compromise where you slow and soften your pace and as a bonus, the jolts and sounds this can elicit will make your day." +843,Three Way Stimulation,magic_tantra,How To,2005-01-31,2005-01-31,2022-01-04 08:40:44,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/three-way-stimulation,This is a hot way to peform oral sex on your lady.,"['Clitoral Area', 'Dildo Sliding', 'Finger Ass', 'Finger Good', 'Head Crotch', 'Lay Head', 'Make Lick', 'Middle Finger', 'Soapy Finger', 'Sucking Biting']",4.04,"I suggest that if you are in love with someone and wish to share intimate oral stimulation that you shower with your lover before any love making session. Starting off with a shower will make you both relaxed, knowing that both of you have squeaky clean bodies. Take turns soaping and fondling each others bodies. Use your whole body as a wash rag, make it really soapy and rub up and down each others torsos. Sliding your crotch up and down a nice shapely ass turns both men and woman on. Men avoid any penetration in the shower because the purpose of this lesson is to clean, relax, and tease your partner and yourself so that you both will voraciously attack each other sex with your succulent mouths. +Learn how to wash your ladies pussy in a way that pleases her. Woman do not like a soapy pussy so be careful. I wash my lover's pussy with the stream of the shower on her crotch and use my tongue in all the nooks and crannies of her flowery folds to get her sexually interested in more oral activities later in bed. Avoid licking the clitoral area because you do not want her to come in the shower and get turned off for more oral play. Afterwards you both need to go to bed immediately for more fireworks. +Make sure that her anus is clean by inserting a soapy finger. (A good loving man always has one of his middle finger nails cut short so when he stimulates his loves ass she will not feel a sharp nail.) As you showering with your lover clean her anus gently with a soapy finger and she will love you for it. If you really want to give her a treat use one finger on her clit, and with your finger in her ass, screw your soapy digit in and out of her ass and give her a quick taste of pleasure just short of orgasm as a real tease. Make sure you clean your finger good afterwards in the shower and remember to use that same finger for anal play only. Never put a finger that you slide into your lover's ass into her vagina without thoroughly washing it first to avoid any bacteria getting into her vagina. +Ladies do not be afraid to grab your loves cock and balls and soap them hard. As you masturbate him look him in the eyes and let him know who is boss. Get him nice and ready, just before he comes squeeze the base of his dick, grab his balls pulling them away from his body to discontinue his pre-orgasmic climax, giving him a good case of blue balls. This is your payback time to tease. Soaping a man's cock brings him to submission faster than anything else. +For those ladies who are a bit more open and willing to please your man, a good prostate massage in the shower will get his motor running. Wash his anus good first and goose him with a well clipped middle finger. Otherwise, save your well manicured nails and use a rubber glove. Stick your finger in his ass a few inches and press under his balls with the flat of your finger finding his prostate gland, sometimes called the male G-spot. It is the size of a walnut and loves stimulation. As you rub and press you finger on his button continue squeezing and jacking his shaft and watch the clear liquid from his gland begin to drool from his pee hole. Make him beg for more and then stop with a promise of more when you hit the sheets. +Now if you want to give all that you can give for your lover during cunnlinigus, try this! This is an exercise in an artful and stimulating 69. I suggest lots of foreplay, kissing, massage, whatever makes both of you comfortable for intimate oral sex. Once you are comfortable with your lover and are ready for oral sex; get ready to fly. This loving act is for the woman's total stimulation and pleasure. +The male lies on his back. It is up to his partner if she wishes him naked, clothed, or wearing only a jock strap to hide his cock. From a female perspective it would be a challenge to dress your man in a jock so he is not allowed any stimulation during this erotic act so he can concentrate on giving the woman all the pleasure. But if your bi polar and want to suck his cock at the same time that is fun as well. +Straddle your partner and present your pussy to his mouth. Leave your pussy up in the air for a minute so he can view your female sexual anatomy and worship it. Tell him to say something about your sex that will turn you on as a challenge to get him thinking about pussy even more. Never begin sucking his cock till your nice and ready to after he has licked and nurtured your pussy with his tongue. The guy should get you nice and wet first licking all over your labia and using his saliva to lubricate your vagina. Give him your favorite dildo or G-spot stimulator and have him insert it into your vagina. Make him lick it good coating it with saliva so it will slip in easier. A good stud should know how to suck your toys for you and get them wet. Next he sticks his middle finger in his mouth for lubrication and delicately sticks it in your asshole. Make sure his nail is clipped short so your delicate anus is not scratched. Lay you head in his crotch and enjoy as he licks your clitoral area screws you with the dildo and stimulates your anus with his finger. +If you have a good sensual relationship you can use his cock as a signal device by sucking and biting it when you need more stimulation. Sucking if you like what he is doing and biting if he is going to harsh with you. If you are into giving even more enthusiastic stimulation try sucking his balls and biting the chord as you pull his balls with your mouth away from his body. +I found it is better to leave the middle finger in your partner's anus up to the second knuckle and only move it slowly around and around. I like the feeling I get against my partners thin tissue as I feel the dildo sliding inside her vagina. I can sense pain or pleasure with my finger as her anus squeezes my finger or relaxes as she is pleasured. Use most of your effort on the dildo sliding in and out of the vagina so you can pleasure your partner better. If you like slip the dildo from her pussy and lick off the juices for an inner taste of her juices. Your mouth will become one with her vaginal tastes. +With your G-spot being stimulated, along with your clitoral area, as well as your asshole you should be on your way to orgasm city with fireworks and lights. Lay back and notice the choices and differences of feeling your partner is lovingly producing in your genitals. Stop sucking his cock lay your head in his crotch and let the vibrations transcend through your body and let go like never before. Surprise your man and roar like a hungry lioness after her prey. Tell him you want Moarrrrrrrr. +Once he makes you wild if you like reward him with a suck from a lioness biting and scraping your teeth on his male cock that need taming. Suck his fluids from his cock into your mouth and like a lioness share your spoils with your male treating him to a taste of his own medicine. Stick your come coated tongue down his throat and make him lick it all off.

As is often the case when one person has a significantly higher sex drive than the other, we have argued more than once about what should be the most pleasurable benefit of marriage. Many others in similar positions explore options such as open relationships or extra-marital affairs. For us though after failed relationships in the past and having been the other person in more than one marriage, we both meant the 'forsaking all others.' That is not to condemn those, who have chosen other paths. It is simply recognition that this article may not be relevant to your situation. +My situation may seem unique: a woman begging and pleading with her husband for more sex. I believe though that as the sexual revolution has freed women to express their needs, many will discover that they have desires stronger and more frequent than their partners. Despite having a long and honest discussion about sexual appetite before we married, I have come to realise that few men can admit that their women have appetites beyond theirs. More culturally norm of course is the man, who remains desirous of sexual fulfilment several times a week or even a day. Overtime, his partner may become less tolerant of what she may have at first found faltering. As I said, I have been the other woman in such a marriage, more than once. It is the experience as the 'other' woman that formed my belief that if someone is getting their needs, physical and emotional, met at home then he or she will not stray. +But what happens if you are in a situation where those needs, either physical, emotional or both are not being met? What if you are still deeply in love with your partner and do not want to engage in extra-marital affairs or open relationships? This article is born out of my personal struggle with just such issues. It is about three key things I have found that have allowed me to remain faithful to my husband and minimised long term damage to the love and commitment we share for one another. I share this in the hope that others will find it useful. It is by no means exhaustive. If you have found other things, which have helped you in similar situations, I would very much appreciate you sending those through email or feedback. Because as I think anyone in this situation will appreciate, this is a continual struggle much the same as alcoholics or drug-addicts in a seven-step programme. I hope to learn as much or more from you than the simple options I offer here. +1) Talk about it. Do not ignore the issue or feel as if you must keep the problem to yourself. In as neutral language as possible, let your lover know that you are having difficulty. Keep the discussion focused on 'I' words; I would like more sex. As opposed to more accusatory, 'You never make love to me anymore.' The other thing to remember is that the issue may not be solved with a single discussion. You may need to with loving persistence bring the subject up over and over again. Perhaps I should have even phrased this as 'talk about it, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, etc.' That is hard, because you do not want to seem as if you are nagging your partner. On the other hand, if you cannot discuss what is bothering you, sexually or not, then your situation is compounded. A couple of things I have found that make it easier to distinguish between nagging/begging and constructive discussion is to bring the subject up not in the heat of passion, but in a calm manner and perhaps even neutral location. It is sometimes easier to open the topic over a nice dinner out, than over coffee the morning after your advances were once again rejected. There should be a clear distinction between talking about it and fighting about it. Not that fighting does not have its place. Sometimes arguing is the only way to communicate how strongly you feel about something; it is also a good excuse to have great make-up sex. Yet, most of the progress towards resolution to your unique situation is likely to come not from heated arguments, but from thoughtful, considerate communication with your lover. No matter what, never stop talking. I have actually warned my husband, 'the day I quit talking about this is the day you need to really worry.' +2) Remember the good stuff. For all of us, there are unique qualities of our partners that first attracted us to them or things we have discovered along our shared path in life that make us love and respect that person. Unfortunately during difficult times, we tend to focus not on those positives, but the negatives. If we make a conscious decision to remember those positives, our struggles take a new and bigger perspective. For me, I have found numerous reasons that I want to remain faithful to my husband. Chief among those reasons is that I still find him terribly sexy. I tell him it is his fault that he has ruined me for other men. I can honestly say if I were to look for another partner, he would just about need to be hubby's identical twin. Of course, there are other reasons as well; some silly, such as my telling him that I could not divorce him because I might lose his mother. Others though are deeply moving. For me after an acrimonious divorce that has harmed my older children and an almost idyllic separation from my former partner that even then has been difficult for our son, our daughter is a large portion of this equation. It is not simply that we share a child though. It is the type of father that my husband is which seals this deal. For instance, my husband, who is a slightly shorter version of Michael Clarke Duncan from the Green Mile, came home last night from work and despite being exhausted lovingly allowed our three year-old daughter to adorn his gargantuan form with her bracelets, necklaces and even her Disney Little Princesses flashing crown. It is a moment I shall remember for all time. Tell me, what other man could ever compete with that? +3) Find other outlets. It may seem trite to suggest, but finding other things to distract you can in the short term at least help to temper the situation. It may seem ironic, but I returned to an earlier love of writing erotica. I found that I could take these pictures, fantasies and thoughts and by transferring them into words and stories on a screen I could relieve the sexual tensions. I could escape my reality and for a brief time become someone else. I could live out my fantasies yet remain chaste and faithful to the man I love. This obviously is not a solution for everyone. There are other options; a hobby, the gym, or friends. A profitable although potentially consuming and ultimately counter-productive option is to throw yourself into your work. Recognise though that these outlets whatever they may be are not a solution in themselves. They are merely an option in context of the other two; an opportunity to distract ourselves from the situation. +The obvious question of course is: what makes you the expert? The honest answer is that I am not. I am simply a human being, who like you may be struggling with this issue. I actually debated whether or not I had any right to write this article; given that there are days and sometimes even weeks when I wonder whether or not I will be successful in this endeavour long term. In the end, it came down to the simple fact that whether or not I successfully apply these three principles over the next twenty or more years, I still believe in them. As I said though, I do not hold myself up as an expert and definitely welcome suggestions and dialogue with others, who share this struggle." +845,Three Ways to Avoid Heartache,bewindsor,How To,2006-06-06,2006-06-06,2022-01-04 08:40:45,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/three-ways-to-avoid-heartache,How to find out early if your partner is a good match.,"['Dating', 'Falling In Love', 'First Date', 'Love Advice', 'Relationships', 'Self-Help']",4.29,"> ""Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in > the same direction."" > \- St. Antoine of Exupery +How many times has this happened to you? You fall ""in love"" with the man or woman of your dreams. You feel an instant connection; one you have never felt before with any other person. You find yourself thinking of them during the first waking moments of each day and again just before you drift off to sleep at night. The thought of his smile or her perfume fills your chest with pure and simple exhilaration. They have their faults most certainly, but their faults are minute compared to the plethora of good qualities they possess. Your love for them consumes you. ""This"" you say to yourself, ""is truly the one!"" +As time passes, your flame while still capable of intense passion for them, finds a more comfortable lower level of intensity. You are still intensely in love with them, but the passing of time has allowed you regain the majority of your senses. +As the relationship intensifies, you begin to discuss your desires, interest, and motivation for the future. How do you both feel about having and raising children? How do you both view the importance of money and material things? Where do you want to be in your life and career 10 or even 20 years from now? As the answers reveal themselves one by one, you suddenly begin to realize the vast chasm that exists between the two of you. +Obviously, this is a crucial point in the relationship where many difficult questions must be asked and answered. Please take note of that last sentence. Asking the questions is not the solution to this obstacle. It is the asking and the answering that absolutely must be done when confronted with such a situation. +Can the two of you reconcile your different perspectives on the future in a way that is fair and considerate to each other? Or, are the differences simply too far apart for you both to find a sense of happiness and fulfillment in your lives together? Remember the quote at the beginning, only by ""looking together in the same direction"" will your love last. +It has been my experience that delaying these questions will place you many months (or even YEARS!) deep into a relationship that is destined to bring you nothing but drama and heartache when the moment of truth arrives. +Here are 3 quick suggestions for getting to the heart of the matter as early as possible: +1\. Begin Probing Immediately +No matter how you meet that special some one, it is never too early to subtly gain information about their future plans. DON'T GO PSYCHO!!! A barrage of questions about kids and money will make you look like a freak. Practice subtlety. Ask a probing question then back off. You don't want this to resemble a homicide investigation. A well placed question here and there on the phone, on dates, and anywhere else you spend time with him or her will quickly add up to a rough outline of your possible differences. The first phone call (if lengthy), first date, first e-mail can all help you discover these truths if you play it cool. +2\. Listen +You have to listen actively to your perspective lover. The old saying goes, ""You have two ears and one mouth for a reason"". Listen twice as much as you speak. When you listen, truly listen. Do not distract yourself thinking about your next question or over analyzing something that was said. If something was unclear or struck you in strange way, ask him or her to explain further. Actively listen for verbal clues about past relationships, jobs, and activities. Don't read into anything. Just listen and ask them to explain further if something is unclear. You don't want to eliminate a potentially great person from your life because of a misunderstanding. Be patient. If you didn't get a straight answer, there will be opportunities to probe that area again some time later. +3\. Be True to Yourself +If your intuition is telling you that you will not be able to overcome something he or she has said, be honest with yourself and consider it. The rush of emotion when we find some one interesting can often let ourselves feel that ""It's not that big of a deal"". WRONG!!! While your heart is going pitter- patter in the beginning it is ""not that big of a deal"", but you know as well as I do that somewhere down the road it will be a MAJOR deal! Save yourself the drama and the heartache. If you realize that something is not going to work in the beginning, you must address it. Putting it off for later is only going to hurt you and them. Remember: don't call it quits over a misunderstanding. Have them clarify, clarify, clarify. If you are completely convinced you understand them and the difference is too much to handle, then you know what you must do. +These questions are crucial. Many people have and will ignore this issue while foolishly mumbling the old saying, ""opposites attract"". Don't be fooled! Applying that adage to this situation is relationship homicide. +You must be in-tune with your partner on matters concerning your future together.

Improving communincation basic terminology for a threesome.,"['Communication', 'Relationship', 'Self-Help', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex How-To', 'Single Female', 'Threesome']",3.99,"**Introduction** +Many of have seen porno movies of threesomes. Some of us have used them as a catalyst to start the conversation with our significant other, others have used them as a bridge to start a threesome, and others wonder how to make it happen in reality. Others of us may find pornos a bit too humorous to watch with the bad acting and bad scripts, instead the idea of having a threesome has come about from ""pillow talk"" during foreplay. Whatever the source for considering the idea, this series will be a guide on having a threesome and it will cover most aspects that a couple will encounter including some misperceptions. It will cover the main points such as terminology, fantasy versus reality, communication, boundaries, choosing the third, friend versus stranger, safety, two male versus two female threesome, variations of threesomes, and when a threesome is right for a couple. Finally it should be noted that is information is an opinion that may or may not work for couples. + **Scope** +The perspective that I will be using will be that of a committed couple exploring the idea of having a threesome. While my writings may at times seem not to advocate the idea, I tend to present a balanced approach, in order for anyone considering the idea to appreciate what the decision may entail. The type of threesome that I will exploring is the general threesome that does not involve an open relationship. My reason for choosing the perspective is that I do feel for a couple that is in a committed relationship they have the most to loose if threesome goes wrong and I feel that there is allot of misinformation out there. As a writer I do accept that some couples can discuss the idea once and have a perfectly enjoyable threesome. However I do feel such a situation is fraught with risks and may pose potential problems later for the couple. Therefore my perspective is one that I hope With that said the information presented hopefully will help couples, along with helping single males to understand the process for couples, helping single females, and hopefully help some more experienced couples too. + **Chapter 1 -- The Beginning** +This chapter will look at the first step, which is considering the idea and how to approach the subject with your significant other. This chapter will be divided into two parts. First part will discuss introspection, the process of examining the idea and the second part will examine how to bring up the idea. + **Introspection** +It goes without saying that having a threesome or even discussing a threesome will forever change a relationship. Reaching the decision to have a threesome must be a decision that each person makes freely without undue influence and both must be in agreement to what will happen in the threesome. The process needed to reach the decision of having a threesome is a journey that begins with the first step of introspection. Before even having the first discussion it is important to broadly understand what are asking your partner to undertake and what you will, potentially, be exposing yourself. By proposing a threesome to your significant other you are in essence asking them to consider either having sex with someone else while you watch or having them watch while you have sex with someone. In the event you are asking your significant other to have sex with someone else it is important that you begin to understand that nothing can fully prepare yourself for watching your partner having sex with someone else. For many couples, the suggestion borders on the idea of acceptable cheating and can bring about a plethora of emotional responses. Therefore, it is important to do some introspection before even starting the conversation. +Probably the best starting point is beginning to understand that there is a difference between fantasy of having a threesome, like in a porno movie, and the stark realities of having a threesome because there is a vast difference. In a fantasy you can be the producer, director, writer, actor / actress, cameraperson, and stage crew. This means you have complete artistic control of the scene and complete control of the outcome. Whereas, in reality you are one person is a three person arrangement that has, no control over the other two and the only control you have is how you choose to react to events that are occurring. Once you can grasp that how you see the threesome happening in your mind's eye is not going to the how it happens then you are reads to begin to run through what a threesome might look like and how it might turn out. +Trying to figure out what type of threesome that might work for you as a couple and what it might entail takes some work. Reality is there are two strands that need to be considered. One strand is trying to do some research. This is not always easy because the subject is relatively taboo and not much is written about it. The literature out there tends to toss a wide blanket over the subject that includes swinging, group sex, and open relationships. Moreover this means you will need to read allot and disseminate the information that is applicable to your situation. Second strand it running through in your mind's eye an examination of the subject from 360° perspective. Areas you probably would want to consider are potential boundaries, risks, your partner's reaction to the idea, who do you want to invite, type of person to be invited, issues, concerns, safety (personal and sexual), structure of the threesome, and where to find them. In addition you need to consider areas like what if... happens and if it did happen how would it be addressed? Essentially you are running through different scenarios and coming up with contingency plans for them. After you have done some initial research, given the idea some consideration, and still feel it is an idea worth pursing then the next step is starting the initial discussion. + **First Discussion** +As a couple you may have watched porno movies with threesomes or role played the idea with great results in the bedroom. You may have included a few people that you know as a way to enhance the experience or the idea has something that is never discussed. Regardless of what role the fantasy of having a threesome may play the one thing that is still missing is a discussion outside of the bedroom regarding this idea. This section will examine this aspect. +Introducing the idea is never easy and it is unpredictable. Allot of where future discussions go depends to some extent on this discussion and your knowledge of your partner's reaction to discussions that can become involved. Many people who consider bringing up the idea believe seek a magical formula that can convince their partner to have a threesome but the reality is the only way to reach the point of having a threesome is through communicating with each other. Furthermore, even if the first discussion is successful it still means there is more discussing that needs to occur and it is therefore important to see this as a journey, not a sprint to have a threesome. The only way to have this discussion is by being direct and forthright. Using euphemisms, being passive, speaking indirectly, speaking about the idea during the ""heat of passion"" in the bedroom or bringing up the subject by using sock puppets acting out the proposed idea can only lead to misunderstandings later. It is only by speaking honestly, respecting each other's feelings, speaking about the subject outside of the bedroom, and listening to what each other says will lead to this issue getting some direction. At this point I could go through some suggestions on how to bring up the idea but my feeling is that it would distract form the discussion and I feel there a numerous ways an individual could lead into the discussion and much of it depends on your knowledge of your partner. +This now leads to the question how do you bring up the subject? Bringing up the subject does not mean you have to be brutally direct about it nor does it mean you need blurt out the subject while spending time together. Instead it means being prepared, using what you have learned during your introspection, and using what you know about your partner to time the discussion. This means there is a bit of timing in the subject and it should happen when the two of you can discuss the subject rationally. Moreover it means that you have work through how you will bring it up and you have worked out, to some extent, the type of reaction you expect from your partner. +Your planning and your partner's reaction will dictate your next step. Should your partner not be receptive, at this stage to the idea, then I would recommend taking time to build up the relationship so that they feel secure and then reproach the subject in no earlier than 12 months time. It maybe your partner is not receptive to idea or it may mean they need time to process the information. Giving time to process the information and being willing to answer any questions that they may bring up will help to move the process forward. In addition because of the unpredictable nature of having the discussion it means being restrained, patient, not rushing it and understanding may help more than trying to be confrontation about it. However if your partner seems receptive to the idea your first reaction should not be finding threesome and swinger's sites to join. Instead it means talking about it some more and it may mean that as couple you may have to come back to it at a later time when you do not have distractions. Once the two of you reach agreement about discussing the idea further then you are ready for the next step which is the next chapter. + +" +847,Threesome Planning Made Simple,roomfor1more,How To,2011-02-24,2011-02-24,2022-01-04 08:40:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/threesome-planning-made-simple,Planning a threesome for couples beginning their journey.,"['Communication', 'Essential', 'Group Sex', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex Guide', 'Threesome', 'Threesome How To']",3.94,"**Introduction:** +What do you think of when you hear the words, planning a threesome? It can invoke an image of an erotic experience being deprived of its essential character and being reduced to its most simple elements. Also, it may conjure up images of a couple staying up late at night going over every minutia of their planned threesome and throwing up their hands because they have been too overwhelmed. For others it may invoke a feeling that planning is a waste of time because it detracts from the excitement of having a threesome. Whatever image it conjures for you, planning a threesome should not be seen as a negative event. Instead it should be seen as an activity that is shared together that can help ensure that the relationship survive the threesome and to mitigate the risk that a threesome can bring to the relationship. + _Defining Planning & Overview of this opinion piece_ +In order to prevent confusion regarding what is mean by planning a threesome, in this article planning a threesome it means examining the idea of having a threesome from various angles in order to reach an agreement, understanding what is going to happen, finding a way to work through any unresolved issues and to cover any issue that may get overlooked. Essentially, planning a threesome is the process brings together any concern, highlights any expectation and outputs a plan to ensure that each person's interest is addressed. Therefore, while there is no one way to examine the issue of planning threesome, this article will provide an opinion of a way addressing it by examining a few of the core elements this author feels that needs to be included. Nonetheless this article is not meant to be an exhaustive treatise on the subject and is only meant to provide a rudimentary template for couples to adapt to their situation. +Finally I am well aware that not everyone believes that a couple should have sex with someone outside of their relationship and that is a viewpoint that is respected by me. Nonetheless, this author feels whatever an adult couple with the ability to consent decides to do in their home is their decision. My feeling it is better to provide an opinion on an aspect of a threesome than for a couple to enter a threesome without much guidance thereby undertaking unnecessary risk to their relationship. Therefore, this article targets couples who are considering the idea but need to understand how to approach it. Last point, this article will attempt to look at having a threesome from various points in order to suggest to couples how to approach planning a threesome and since no two threesomes are the same it is impossible to write a piece on how to plan a threesome. This means for a couple reading this piece, this piece provides a suggest template for them and then from there they can modify it to fit their needs. + **The Basics & Assumptions** +By now the initial discussion has happened and there is, at some level, an agreement to explore how a potential threesome might operate. At this stage in this journey, there may be a flurry of emotion ranging from panic due to not knowing what to expect to excitement of seeing your partner having sex with someone else or excitement arising from being able to have sex with someone else. Nonetheless, tempering excitement occurs because the uncertainty that a threesome brings and the beginning realization that if the threesome turns bad then the relationship may end. Such a realization produces mixed feelings and uncertainty, in which taking some time to plan could possibly resolve. +Before getting into the heart of this article, it is important to explain some of the basics regarding planning a threesome. It is not meant to bore you. Instead it is meant to provide a common understanding before talking about planning a threesome and briefly discuss some of the underlying principles that exist. To begin with, before embarking on this activity the couple needs to make their decision based on the right reasons and this will be discussed more in a few moments. Planning a threesome in a very broad sense is an agreement that dictates how the threesome will operate, how the third person will be selected, and how potential issues will be addressed. It draws on each other's limitations, each other's expectations, each other's concerns, each other's desires and fuses them into a plan. Essentially, it provides a framework that the couple can use and it can provide a sense of security since it defines the limits. Second, the plan is something that is adaptable, meaning the plan is flexible so that it can change as more information becomes available. Third, the plan cannot be vague and it needs to have some detail to it. Level of detail needs to be at a level that there is no confusion about what has been agreed. Without having some detail to the plan the risk increases that a misunderstanding will occur. Fourth, it needs to cover the essential aspects of the threesome, the aspects of having a threesome that would create problems if it was not clarified. Finally any plan must have participants that freely choose to participate without coercion, pressure, or manipulation. It also means that the couple has taken time to consider the risks, included in their plan ways to address the risks, and are nonetheless willing to take them. +360 ° Overview of Planning a Threesome + 1. Fantasy versus Reality and knowing the difference +Planning a threesome in many ways is like being a child in a toy store, there are so many options and decisions to make that it can be overwhelming. At the start of the threesome journey many possibilities can be envisioned with many possible routes and like a child in a toy store there are so many choices to be made it can be overwhelming. The overwhelming choices can sometimes lead to setting unrealistic expectations and wanting to do as much as possible in one session. By planning it helps to bring out what is realistically attainable and knowing what is most likely not attainable in their threesome. Learning this comes in part from communicating but it also comes from learning as much as they can about having a threesome. This topic is fairly simple to state but it can be very broad covering many issues. Below are four examples of how this topic can influence planning a threesome. + **Example:** One example I can think of is the desire to perform DP on the female half of the couple. From a logistical standpoint DP can be very difficult to do and for males it can call into question their sexuality. For a couple just starting out not knowing their limits doing DP might not be the best choice and it may be something that requires a level of trust that needs to be built with the third person in order to allow it to happen. + **Example #2:** A couple may have a porn movie image of a threesome whereby it happens naturally and it is a completely erotic experience whereby guys have permanent erection that can hold off hours before they cum and women get instantly aroused when they see more than one erect ""cock"". However when they have it the find issues like awkwardness, not being able to move from having a conversation to actually having the threesome, premature ejaculation, performance anxiety, jealousy, and feeling bad after the threesome happens occurs. In this situation the fantasy of having a threesome can be very different than the reality of having a threesome. It is therefore important that anyone having a threesome comes to term with the fact that the fantasy of having a threesome can be very different than actually having a threesome. + **Example #3: Reasons for having a threesome -- Is it the right reason?** +While writing this piece where to place was a big struggle for me and ultimately I decided to place here. My reason for placing it here with a title is because this topic falls under the definition of fantasy versus reality. In this sense the fantasy of having a threesome is rooted in the magical thinking that having a threesome is a panacea for all problems in a relationship while ignoring the problems that it can create for a relationship. Furthermore it challenges those planning a threesome to think about the reason for wanting to have a threesome before embarking on the journey to plan the threesome and while planning their threesome each individual should ask them what the reason for wanting to have a threesome is? If the reason is to prevent cheating, add spice to the relationship, feeling pressure to have one, to fix a troubled relationship, wanting to have one because it is a quick way to get ""laid, it looks fun in the movies, or being coerced into having one then this author feels the reason to have a threesome may be wrong due to the reason for wanting to have a threesome is based more in fantasy thinking than the realties of having a threesome. + **Example #4: Boundaries are not needed and told my partner they can do anything they want in the threesome because I want them to be able to experience a threesome without restrictions:** +In this author's opinion this belief is reminiscent of humanistic ideas like unconditional love. Granted in most cases a parent's love is unconditional. Nonetheless what happens if the child announces they are gay or is arrested for selling drugs because they are a part of a gang. For some parents there is a limit, even temporary, to their unconditional love. Likewise when it comes to planning a threesome there needs to be some discussion, especially if you are starting out. To say there are no boundaries says, in this author's opinion, that having a threesome takes priority quite magical thinking for someone starting out and it demonstrates the lack of understanding of what is involved in a threesome. It ignores that everyone has a limit and this author feels it demonstrates that there is a lack of communication that exists with the couple. + 1. **What will a threesome mean for the relationship?** +For a couple wanting to have a threesome, maintaining the relationship after the threesome happen and minimizing the negative impact of the threesome is a goal for any threesome that involves some form of committed relationship. This means asking the above question will help a couple begin to identify areas that they need to examine and it is a question that needs to be asked regularly, as they plan their threesome. By asking this question on a regular basis and asking it as it relates to each part of their plan it can to help identify those areas that may cause problems if not addressed in more detail. Plus by asking this question it will help ensure that both continue wanting to have a threesome and that both are willing to undertake the risk, thereby helping to ensure that this is a mutual decision. + 1. **Boundaries** +Talking about boundaries for some can be depressing because it means this discussion will slow down the rapid pace to have a threesome and it acknowledges that a threesome can adversely impact a relationship. Starting point for the discussion of boundaries lies in the recognition that having a threesome is a mutual decision in which all share an equal responsibility for it happening. This means that each person is responsible for their decisions, they are responsible for what happens to them, and they are responsible for their feelings. Furthermore the issue of boundaries has been addressed in my previous writings and this section will expand on the issue of boundaries by examining specific parts that may define boundaries for a couple. It is important to remember that boundaries act as a safety net by defining the limits of the threesome, address concerns in order to allow a threesome to happen, and even though there may be some implied boundaries like no means no boundaries for the most part boundaries are unique to couple. Also it is important to remember that agreeing to boundaries is only ½ of the process the other half involves stating your boundaries to the third person. In a two male threesome the invited male can share their expectations / boundaries but with the couple having a plethora choices for potential male invites, if he gets to be too pushy then the couple can easily choose someone else. Unfortunately when it comes to a two woman situation the couple needs to be open about negotiating their boundaries if they want to make it happen and if they do not then they may find that they have a long search. This does not mean that a couple should give up a ""must have"" boundary for a two female threesome but instead it means they need to understand the less they are willing to negotiate on boundaries then the longer it may take them. + 1. **Activities in a threesome** +Determining what activities can occur in a threesome sounds a lot like planning a trip to a distant country. Like planning a trip to a foreign country, the tempering of the excitement occurs when discussing what can occur in a threesome after realizing there are competing demands such as personal comfort limits and time. This means in order for threesome to work individuals needs to be in tune with their limits, be able to discuss them openly, and being willing to listen to other people's limits. In addition, it means there is no magical formula on splitting attention between two other people, what needs to occur, or what does not occur in a threesome. +With that said, the best advice for couples that are just beginning exploring threesomes is to keep it simple and not to push their limits. After having a few threesomes a couple will get beyond the thrill of having one and begin to understand where their limits currently exist. If they push their limits too much the individual may find that they are left feeling bad about the experience or may burnout too quickly. For couples who are want to progress slowly or not 100% sure that having a full threesome is for them then they may want to consider a ""soft-swing"" situation where the invited person participates but no intercourse happens between the couple and the invited third person. + 1. **Selecting a third person** +This has been covered to some extent in a previous article and the same information will not be repeated here. Nonetheless, it is important that the couple begins discussing the type of person that they want to invite and understand, a bit, of the reasoning for it. Talking about the type of person to invite and agreeing to the broad characteristics that the person needs will serve as a template from which the couple will make their decision and it will serve as a boundary from which they will not exceed. Without including the discussion of what type of person to invite it leaves open the possibility that the wrong person may be selected and by talking about the type of person to invite it reduces the chance that the wrong decisions regarding selection will be made. + 1. **Safe word or Signals** +Safe word means a word that they couple recognises but the selected third person does not recognise. Unlike the term safe word when used in a BDSM context to mean a word that cannot be confused with the scene that brings the action to a stop without question or retribution due to a level discomfort. In this situation, a safe word is a word where the couple knows the meaning and the meaning is meant to be a signal. Likewise, instead of using a word to signal something the couple could opt to use a gesture or a behavior to serve the same purpose. The signal could be approval, disapproval, or anything else the couple feels as though they need to communicate to each other. Problem here is if too many words are being used, complex signals, or too many signs then it can create confusion. Therefore it is best to have a very limited number of words or signals. + 1. **To accommodate, not to accommodate, or travel?** +The idea of accommodating someone or travelling to have a threesome can invoke different feelings. It can seem natural for some as an extension of being social in order to have a threesome and for others it can invoke a strong reaction of saying 'no.' Furthermore, for couples that live in rural areas or are struggling to find a third person to invite this maybe the only solution, other than waiting longer to find someone. Accommodating takes on different meaning for different people and each couple has their own feeling on this subject. In this article, accommodating means having the invited individual spend the night with the couple at their request at either their home or staying in the same hotel room. Whereas travelling refers to travelling a significant distance, greater than 50 miles in order to meet. +The starting point for consideration this author feels is examining the distance travelled to meet, the time expected for the threesome to end, and time demands on all participants immediately after the threesome. Consider such issues include does one of them have to work shortly after the threesome. Will there be guests or children coming to visit? What time the threesome might end or did end? +Another point to consider is what space is available and where they would stay. A logical conclusion would be that they would stay in the bed with the couple. However, the couple may want time afterward to connect, reinforce the idea that they are a couple or that they want to keep an emotional distance from the invited third person. In such a case then having them stay in the bed afterwards is not a good idea. This brings up the idea of having them stay in another bedroom, hotel room, or if sharing a hotel room then having them sleep in a separate bed. Final point would be other ancillary issues like how long would they stay, how would it be signalled that it was time for them to leave, and what items would be available for them to use. +Finally, at least from this author's perspective accommodating should not occur especially if the invited third person lives either in the same town or within a short-distance, such as 50 miles. Regarding travelling, travelling needs to be done by the invited person unless the distance is great or they do not drive. In a situation where there is a large distance between the couple and the third person then finding somewhere about halfway that is agreeable to both should occur. Additionally this author feels that accommodating is something that should not necessarily be done by couples just starting out because it can pose some issues for them, such as developing feelings for the invited third person. + **7) Risks** +In a previous article this author addressed the topic of risk and will not restate it. Instead this section will briefly discuss how risk and boundaries relate. It goes without saying that having a threesome, regardless of how well it is planned out or how stable a couple's relationship is, will undertake some type of risk. This risk can be pregnancy, risk to safety, risk of STD / STI, or risk to their relationship to name a few. Since each couple and each threesome is different it is impossible to develop a universal set of risks for a threesome and how to address them. Instead each couple needs to communicate what they feel are the risks, how they can be address and how they can be either eliminated or significantly reduced. From those discussions the couple can have a plan on how to deal with risks that come up and how to address risk as they happen. This type of communication will underpin and shape how the boundaries develop. Without taking time to discuss risk and understand the type of risks that will be faced leaves, this author feels, the couple vulnerable due to a large area this is missing from the discussion. + **8) Writing down the plan or remember it?** +Granted the idea of writing down the plan for a threesome, outstanding issues, and points that need to be followed up reads as though the last few pieces of enjoying a threesome is being sucked out. However writing it down helps to avoid confusion, ensures that outstanding points gets addressed and everyone can remember what has been discussed. At least from this author's perspective writing down the plan and making notes about what has been discussed will help to ensure that everyone is ""on the same page"" regarding the threesome. + **9) Debriefing** +Debriefing is simply talking through the experience in order to work through any issues, to address any concerns, review the plan, make any changes, and decide the next step for the couple. Essentially debriefing is the final step in which the couple try to resolve any issues that may have come up, decide what worked, and decide what their next step will be. It is important, this author feels, that debriefing happens right after the threesome ends and as a part of the plan the couple needs to consider how close to the ending of the threesome this will occur. + **10) Environment** +The environment of where a threesome happens is something that can easily get overlooked and where the threesome occurs can have a big impact on its enjoyment. Without having an area where you can have it without being distracted, without being interrupted, and being a place where you feel secure, it will mean that the threesome is not as enjoyable as you expected. For a couple with children it means that any threesome should not happen in the home when they are there. Beyond the potential safety issue and potential awkwardness it may create for you should your child begin to ask questions, the other issue is that children can become a distraction especially if they are desiring your attention while the third person is present for the threesome. +Along with the logistical concerns other facts such as lighting, color, comfort, and the mood that the room sets all can play a factor. This means taking time to consider issues like temperature and how the room makes you feel. Another consideration is where it will be happening. This means taking into consideration what is being planned, the size of the area, the size of the bed(s), and any other features that may need to be considered. The area has to be large enough to allow three people to change, interact, clean-up, and have a bit of personal space. Also it means the area has to be large enough so that everyone is not fumbling over the others. + **11) Miscellaneous Topics** +If you have made it this far, we are almost done with this subject but there are a few loose ends that need to be tied together. One loose end is the question, how long do you need to plan? Each couple is different with different needs, different concerns, and varying levels of familiarity with each other. Planning can be fairly quick if there is broad agreement and the only thing that is needed is clarifying a few points. However if each person has a different idea about how the threesome will look then it may take some time before a common understanding that leads to agreement will occur. +Second loose end is how often does this plan need to be reviewed? Again it depends on the couple and the level of detail. At a minimum there should be three points. One point is before discussing the plan, whereby each individual states their preference. Then work out the plan keep track of what has been agreed and before the threesome happens taking the plan out to go through it in order to see if it is workable based on what has been discussed. Third point would be after having a threesome then reviewing to see what worked and what needs to be improved. +Third loose end regards the level of detail that is needed. Detail helps to minimize any misunderstanding and cuts down on possible confusion. However it is possible to get too fixated on the details where the plan becomes unmanageable and difficult to understand. Therefore there has to be a balance between detail and simplicity. +Fourth before looking for a third person does the plan need to be completed? Answer is 'no' but a framework should be in place. At a minimum some boundaries and the type of person to choose should be agreed before any searching happens. Plus as things become more certain then the plan can be modified to reflect any changes. +Fifth is there anytime when the plan should not be changed? This author feels the closer you get meeting the third person for a threesome the plan should not be changed unless it relates to safety or a risk that could have a negative impact. Reason for stating this is because emotions, not logic, may begin to influence decisions and the wrong decision may be made. However if there is a safety issue or a risk was indentified that could cause problems if it did happen then that should not stop the change from being made. If it does not relate to risk or safety then in most cases it should be left until debriefing to discuss. +Conclusion & Putting Plan into Action +Planning for a threesome means examining the planned threesome from all possible angles to determine its strengths, it weaknesses, and how to address the needs of those involved. By having, a plan that can be easily adapted to any change will help make a threesome successful. In addition, it means having a plan that is easy to understand will minimize any possible confusion about the plan for the threesome. This means a workable plan will provide a framework for the threesome and help everyone understand the expectations. Nonetheless it will not eliminate all risk of having a threesome nor will it guarantee that there will not be any problems. However it will go a long way to help to protect the relationship and help minimize any problems that may happen. Without a plan that will guide the couple on their journey it will leave them in the dark about each other's needs and concerns thereby increasing the chance for misunderstanding. Therefore, a plan can be said is a way for the couple to ensure their needs are met and minimize the chance that it will be misunderstood." +848,Tips for Amateur Writers,sobstory,How To,2011-10-09,2011-10-09,2022-01-04 08:40:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tips-for-amateur-writers,"Some of the most common, yet overlooked, errors.","['Characterization', 'Editor', 'Plot', 'Style', 'Vocabulary']",4.42,"Little-Known Yet Somehow Obvious Tips For Writers +I my experience as both an editor and a writer, I have come across some very common, but little-known, stylistic errors. +One thing that most people don't seem to understand is how to transform everyday, hum-drum, blah writing into something enjoyable. +Most often, the major problems with a story's readability are style related. Grammar is easy to fix, just buy a grammar book. +Style, on the other hand, is not so obvious. The good news is, you don't need to be Shakespeare to write an entertaining piece of smut, just a fairly intelligent human being with Internet access. +So, I have compiled a list of diagnoses and cures that I **most commonly** prescribe to amateur writers. Please note, this is not a complete grammar and style guide. I recommend getting an actual book for that. +Problem 1: Clunky writing +So many people do not know this! One of the most important things to do, especially while editing, is to use as few words as possible. +I know that on a site like Literotica, where there is a minimum word count, you might be hesitant to actually delete as much as you can, but you must. +The rule of thumb is, look at every single sentence, and ask yourself, ""Is it necessary?"" If it is not needed for plot, characterization, setting, theme, or symbolism, into the trashcan it goes. +But wait! Don't _actually_ throw that into the trashcan! I'm talking about your ""writer's trashcan."" A ""writer's trashcan"" is a Word document I like to keep where I can save all of my favorite non-necessary phrases, sentences, paragraphs, and more! +If there is a sentence that is so completely, universe-shatteringly beautiful, but bulks up your precious writing, put it in here. Maybe you can use it later, in another story. +Now, obviously this tip isn't universal. Writers such as Joseph Conrad are _so_ descriptive that by the time you finish the book, you can barely remember anything about the real world! +However, if you are that good, this is not the article for you. In fact, most of the following rules are like that. Feel free to throw them out the window if you know you can do better without them. +Problem 2: Vocabulary/Description +Vocabulary and description is tricky. There needs to be a balance. Some writing has so little description that it is impossible to visualize what is going on. This type of writing tends to be very clinical and detached. +USE YOUR SENSES! +In erotic writing, your readers will want to feel as if they can see, touch, taste, hear, and smell what is going on. +Here is an example from a (so far) unpublished story of mine: +""His brawny hands cupped her plump rear, marveling at how it could be soft and round yet muscled at the same time. +Her eyes, pitch-black and lined with a fringe of featherlike lashes, fluttered shut as a moan of ecstasy escaped her lips. The color rose on her high cheekbones, the coffee-and-cream skin reddening. +Pulling her closer, he leaned in to gently kiss her the hollow of her neck. His hands roamed up her strong back to nestle into the dip of her waist. She could feel his excitement hard against her groin, right at the place where thigh met hip."" +Now compare it to this: +""He took her rear end in his hands, examining its feel and texture. +Her eyes closed as she vocalized her sexual arousal. Her tan skin blushed. +Pulling her closer, he kissed her neck. His hands moved up and down her back. She could feel his erection against her thigh."" +Essentially, these two passages tell the same story, the characters going through the same motions. However, isn't the first one better? Yeah, I thought so. In addition, a good amount of description is a great way to up your word count. +Huh, you might ask. Didn't you _just_ tell me not to stick words in willy- nilly to up word count? +The answer is yes! Description is _not_ expendable! One of the main purposes of erotica is to arouse your reader and description such as this fits the bill perfectly. It adds to your story stylistically, so it stays. Just don't use so much description that it overwhelms your reader. +On to vocabulary, a surprisingly simpler topic. +The one rule of thumb about vocabulary is to not use any word that you got solely from a thesaurus. The thesaurus is a wonderful tool if you use it right. I mostly like to use it to jog my memory. Generally, I only use synonyms I am familiar with. I will, say, look up ""sheer."" My results are: +diaphanous +see through +gossamer +filmy +thin +What to do, what to do? If you don't know ""diaphanous,"" as most won't, don't use it. If you use a word that you don't know the subtleties and nuances of, you risk embarrassing yourself. The English language is so subtle, even close synonyms can have slightly different meanings. +""Thin"" and ""see through,"" while perfectly acceptable, are a little boring, don't you think? +Personally, I would use ""gossamer"" first, then ""filmy,"" then move onto ""thin"" and ""see through,"" if you still need them. +Another important vocabulary tip! Try not to use the same word over and over! This is why we use the thesaurus. +Problem 3: Unconvincing Characters +Okay. I am not going to go into a whole big spiel on character development here. Honestly, I could do a whole article on that, and my head hurts. So, I recommend taking advantage of the many online ""character templates."" +A ""character template,"" or ""character questionnaire,"" is basically a form providing all of the back-story on a character. It will tell you the way he looks, his family history, his secret fears, dreams, and desires. Look for a form with a lot of questions. +Now, a good form won't simply write your characters for you, but it is a step in the right direction. It can help you figure out what motivates your characters to do what they do. +Importantly, you don't need to fit every piece of information in your story. That would fall under the ""bulky writing"" category. Use as much as you need in the body of the story and use the rest to get to know your characters better. As their creator, you should know them as well as your best friend. +Here is a great character template I use. The questions are culled from many different sources: + _Full Name:_ +Nick Name(s): +Gender: +Age: +Birthday/Year: +Marital Status/Sexual Preference: +Spouse: +Hair: +Eyes: +Origin: +Language(s): +Height: +Weight/Body Structure/Physical Faults: +Physical/Mental Health: +Race: +Clothing: +Parents/Guardians: +Siblings: +Friends/Allies: +Enemies: +Beliefs/Religion: +Career/Past Careers: +Dreams/Life Goals: +Speech Patterns/Frequently Used Phrases: +Hobbies: +Likes: +Loves: +Dislikes: +Loathes: +Fears: +Strengths: +Weakness: +Good Qualities: +Bad Habits: +Turn Ons: +Turn Offs: +Natural Talents: +Temperament: +Background: +Both Happiest and Saddest Moments: +What is this character's major goal? +Why is this goal so important to this character? +Are there any events in the character's past that affect the significance of this goal? +Describe your characters life till now, motivations, family situation, pet peeves--anything that comes to you: +What is the one thing in the world your character would do anything to avoid? Why? What has he already done to avoid this? What do you see him doing in the future to avoid it? +What is the one thing in the world your character would do anything in the world to have? Why? What has he already done to try to obtain it? What does he hope to try in the future? +If your character has a job, is he or she good at it? Does he or she like it? +What are your character's bad habits? +If you asked about his or her greatest dream, what would your character tell you? +What's a secret dream that he or she wouldn't tell you about? +What kind of person does your character wish he or she could be? What is stopping him or her? +What is your character afraid of? What keeps him or her up at night? +What does your character think is his or her worst quality? +What do other people think your character's worst quality is? +What is a talent your character thinks he or she has but is very wrong about? +What did his or her childhood home look like? +Who was his or her first love? +What's the most terrible thing that ever happened to him/her? +What was his/her dream growing up? Did he/she achieve this dream? If so, in what ways was it not what the character expected?

I have not written this to deprecate or put down any author's writings, but to offer small suggestions that might help improve future writings. I mean no offense and if any is taken, I apologize in advance. +********************* +I) Regarding cock sucking and deep-throating a large cock: +I have read with misgivings when authors write about that moment when a man or woman sucks down a larger than normal-sized cock, one that can reach the greater depths of a person's throat, how the cock passes through the person's mouth. +They usually write at that point that it has touched the back of their throat. Now, I don't mean to be nit-picking here, but my problem with this is one of visualization, or perhaps conceptualization. What I mean to say is, at this point, hasn't the cock really only reached the back of the mouth and now just begun to enter the front of the throat? +It seems to me that it doesn't really reach the back of the person's throat until the cock has been completely swallowed and fully deep-throated, don't you think? I mean, the back of the throat, I would think, would be where the stomach begins or esophagus ends, no? +Take for example, this sentence: +""His cock slid precariously between my teeth until the head of his rod was just at the back of my throat."" +My aforementioned thoughts on the matter would then cause this sentence to read as follows: +""His cock slid precariously between my teeth until the head of his rod hit the tonsils at the back of my mouth, and I knew he was about to force its massive girth down my throat."" +I'm not sure if this is better, or more descriptive, but it does seem to me to more accurately state the step-by-step description of just how a cock travels as a person takes it from lips to esophagus. +A picture in my head, so to speak, looks like this: The cock, traveling from lips to pallet to pharynx to throat and finally to gullet, or rather, esophagus, that is, the back of the throat. +If you agree or disagree, I would love feedback regarding this concept. +************************** +II) Regarding grammatically incorrect statements: +I keep seeing lines like these in stories I read, and again, please don't take offense, it is not just here in Literotica, but everywhere in today's English grammar. +Hell, I even saw one like it in a Bible verse. It was a modern translation, so it was most likely the translator who was at fault. Therefore, no one is perfect. The lines go like this: +My wife is an innocent exhibitionist from long back that enjoys going braless to tease and fluster... +She talked to some of the men that had seen her virtually naked in the pool today, as well as the ones that spied on her having sex last night. +""He's just a dirty old man that likes young tits just like yours. "" +""Why Mom, you look beautiful, there is no other woman that could compare with you"" +Each line seems okay and probably reads fine to most people, but it is just that each line uses the word ""that"" to refer to the subject of the sentence. +All of us know that my wife is not a ""that"", but rather, a ""who"", as are the men ""who"" had seen her virtually naked. And the dirty old man is really a person ""who"" likes young tits. +Finally, there can be no other woman ""who"", rather than ""that"", can compare with Mom. It is a simple matter of remembering just who or what you are talking about in your sentences. +If it is a person, then it is ""who"". A thing, then it is ""that"". +************************** +III) Regarding incorrectly used words: +I have seen the following words used consistently enough that I thought I should comment. They are not words I necessarily consider misspelled, but rather misused. +I would rather not get into misspelled words here because that would be entirely too nitpicking, and everyone has issues with that problem, including me. +The words I am about to list here are words I've seen used on this site simply because authors have mixed up the spelling of one word for another. I thought I would try to help out some. starring vs. staring: +starring- when an actor plays a part, he is starring in that role. staring -- when a person glares at another without stopping, he is staring at him/her. +shuttered vs. shuddered +shuttered -- he locked the doors and shuttered the windows in preparation for the upcoming storm. shuddered -- he shuddered at the thought of being alone in the creepy, old house. +surreal vs. unreal - +My reasons for including these two words is purely subjective. I have seen and heard the word ""surreal"" used here on this site and in movies and on television so often in recent years, that I am about to go out of my mind. +For some reason, surreal has become the catch-phrase of the 21st century, so much so that I wish it would just go away! There is nothing special about the word, and it holds no particularly novel meaning. +I have just been seeing it pop up in so many stories and movies lately. I was sort of hoping I could ask people if they might start using the old-fashioned word ""unreal"" again, and maybe start a trend back to originality. +There are other words as well. Words like imaginary, fanciful, fantastic, illusory, delusory, deceptive, phantasmal, phantasmagorical, imagined, all in the mind, and incorporeal, to name a few. +For example, the sentence: +""Lisa had never been in such a surreal situation."" could be rewritten as ""Lisa could never have imagined herself to have been caught up in such a fantastic situation. The whole thing boggles the mind."" +Yes, it would take some effort on our parts to be more creative than to just jot down any thought that comes to mind and then not do a creative rewrite, and yes, I also know this is only a sex site, but hey, nothing says that we can't try to attain some sort of literary heights here, eh? +I'm just saying, if you happen to find yourself writing a story here and you feel yourself using a line including that word, see if you maybe can't find some more creative way to express your intent. Anyway, again, just a thought. +************************** +IV) Panties and Garter Belts +And finally, for those of you writing scenes where you find yourself dressing up fine ladies, or in my case, transvestites, in nylons, garter belts and panties, the panties go on last. +Throughout history, this has always been the case because dire emergencies seem always to arise which require the swift removal of the panties . +Because of this, the panties need to be able to be removed first, without having to worry about undoing the bothersome stays and clips of the garter straps. +Such emergencies include times when the wearer, in cases of urinary distress, needs to find it easy to quickly lower the briefs in order to relieve herself once finally in the restroom, after having waited 7-10 hours to finally find a privy. +And then, during any seduction scene, the guy or girl molesting our lady or drag queen really doesn't want to feel he or she need rip off every single item of clothing just to get to her nether hole for that quick janitor closet fuck during school hours. +All he or she need do is lift the dress and slip the panties down (or move them to the side) and slide either a cock, finger or dildo in. +Being able to remove the panties from a properly dressed lady or transvestite wearing garters and stockings and keeping them as a trophy, leaving her completely naked beneath her dress, is quite a humiliating and yet exciting experience for most transvestites, and another thrilling literary treat for the rest of us +********************** +That is all, for the moment. I hope I have helped some and not offended too many others as I meant no umbrage. +I have been experiencing a bit of a writers block with my stories. I have come up with some outlines and some material to use to help guide me in the direction I want to take the stories, but I am still having difficulty writing them out. +Putting out this how-to article hopefully will not only assist others but will also help get me a step closer to writing more on my stories." +850,Tips for the New Streetwalker,Martika_Duponte,How To,2015-10-06,2015-10-06,2022-01-04 08:40:54,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tips-for-the-new-streetwalker,A must-read for all would-be whores & streetwalkers.,"['Anal', 'Cum', 'Fishnet', 'Fucking', 'Hooker', 'Leather', 'Oral', 'Prostitute', 'Smoking Fetish', 'Streetwalker']",4.12,"Hi, allow me to introduce myself. My name's Martika. I'm 30 and I'm a 3rd generation prostitute and I've been so for the last 16 years. I've always worked the streets, never even bothering to think about any other form of prostitution. Streetwalking is the one for me! +So I know my shit, right? Right! +So let's get on with it! +Attitude ; attitude is everything! You walk it how you talk it. You have to act confidently or otherwise you'll get swallowed up by all the fuckers out there that'll just take you for a ride! You don't need that shit! You are out on the streets to sell pussy, bitch, nothing else. Act accretive and you'll have less problems. +Some slags do try to create a new character for themselves. Changing their name, or at least telling the punters your new identity helps to put some distance between the 'real' you and the 'role' that you are playing. Many girls have special clothes, makeup and perfume that their 'streetwalker' self uses but they'll never touch in real life. I get this. I have many friends that do this. It helps them, psychologically, accept what they're doing. Sometimes some of us bitches get asked to do degrading things or the punters will say something 'nasty' whilst they're fucking us. So, having this other 'persona' can help matters. However, some girls drift into drink and drugs to cope... +And that's another thing! Drink and drugs does go with the lifestyle. I, myself, and a drug user and a reformed alcoholic. It's very easy to get sucked into this kinda shit. Takes the edge of things that happen on the street or, indeed, get you psyched up to sell pussy in the first place! What I'd recommend is to not get so pissed or high that you can't function; you're running a business afterall. Make sure you know what's happening to yourself and what you're doing. Stay alert! +I really don't want to see some bitch getting fuckin' high and ending up dead in a ditch or alleyway... +End of sermon! +Appearance; very important too! No bitch is gonna get picked up who just looks like she's gone to the shops! I always say that it's best to look like you're just heading to a nightclub. Basically skirts short, tops tight! I generally wear some kind of tight leather miniskirt. Tight and short enough to look sexy but not too tight that you can't pull it up when a punter wants to fuck you. Spend some time on your makeup and jewellery too. Look sexy, not 'special needs' ok? +Sex; well, this goes without saying really! Some people are ok with sex. Some people 'think' they'll be ok with multiple sex. BUT...what about having sex with big penises? Small penises? Smelly penises? Punters with body odour? Some punters just never clean under the foreskin and, as such, I tend to clean them up with a wipe before I EVER think of putting it in MY mouth! The cunt can take a lot of humping but to take on 10+ punters a night can make you quite sore... +Streetwalker slags like us will end up fucking in cars, up against walls, on the floor - and you just know that the punter would NEVER put his coat on the floor for you to lay on - or in phone boxes! So, plenty of fresh air and you might get cold. Who cares? The punters don't. They just want you legs spread and ready for them! As such, try to keep yourself warm and bring some form of lube. Theyt don't care that you're dry in your vagina...they just want it in you! After many years I am used to it but for a newbie slag it can be painful. Note to self; use lube!! +Oh, and whilst we're on the subject; oral sex. Do NOT ever NEVER spit it out! Bitches swallow every last drop! A man is getting head from you and sure wants you to swallow what is, you could argue, his DNA...so suck the fucker dry! And the punter will love you for it! +All punters don't taste the same, incidentally. It depends really on what their diet is!! Lots of dairy and it's taste fishy! +Anal sex; a lot of punters love this. If you've never tried it before then make sure you're well lubed up and just try to breathe as he pushes his cock in your arse. It'll hurt but usually punters don't spend long before they cum. +Reputation; fuck, girl! Rep is everything! Word gets around about some bitch that is a useless fuck or that they don't take care in their appearance. Word also gets around about which slag doesn't use rubbers too! So...be careful! You want this as a career? Well, it won't take long before word on the streets has you as a bad lay. Do your best; fuck each punter well, treat them well and - I always do this, having learned it from both my mother and grandmother - thank them for fucking you. As my mum always says 'Treat them as a Prince and they'll ALWAYS come back for more..' +...and that's the point; you have to advertise and get work for yourself every time you're out there. +Relationships; I always tell any newbie bitch to smoke. Any bitch that works for me has to smoke. Why? Well, quite a few reasons actually. Men are attracted to 'nasty' girls and nasty girls smoke, right? Right! Also, cigarettes and offering them to fellow whores on the street is pretty much the international way of making friends and forming relationships. Friends will watch your back and you can have a laugh with. Work has to be fun, right? Also, some nights are fuckin' slow! It might be quite a while before getting picked up. I have times when I have literally minutes between finishing with a punter and getting back to my spot, again and again and again, and then times when around a fuckin' hour passes! You have a cigarette or two and it'll pass the time away...give you something to do with your hands! +Another way of staying on the right side of the other girls is not undercut them on prices, ok? Find out what they're charging for the sexual services and stick to it. +That covers a few of the basics. If there's enough interest then i'll post up some more advice. +Take care out there... +Martika xx" +851,Tips on Wife Sharing,Hanksville,How To,2021-10-30,2021-10-30,2022-01-04 08:40:55,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tips-on-wife-sharing,Why some men want their wives to have sex with other men.,"['Open Marriage', 'Voyeurism', 'Why Share Your Wife', 'Wife Sharing']",4.53,"**A Lady Recently Asked Why Some Husbands Want Their Wives to Have Sex with Other Men ...** +A lady posted a question on an open sex website asking if somebody could explain to her why her husband has expressed his fantasy to her about watching her having sex with other men? She also wanted to know why this would turn him on, if he was secretly gay and if she should make his fantasy real. +I am one of ""those guys"" and thought I'd write an explanation from my personal perspective. +I quickly typed a short response, but by the time I proofread my message and was ready to send it off to her, the post had disappeared so I couldn't send what I had written. I don't know if the morality police had removed her post, or if she had received a bunch of dick photos by misguided guys thinking that a photo of their junk would cause her to select them as 'the guy' she should have sex with thereby causing her to remove her own posting. I suspect the latter. +The inability to respond to her led me to thinking, maybe other ladies also might question why some men enjoy this scenario as it is often expressed in Literotica's 'Loving Wives"" category. I figured that that they might benefit from at least one man's perspective on the question. I have fantasized about this and experienced the reality with my first wife and numerous girlfriends in between marriages for over forty years. In short, it is just simply hot! +I am not offering any psychological advice as I am not qualified to provide such advice. But I do have quite a bit of experience with sexually sharing my partners that was very enjoyable for many years. As long as two (or more) people enjoy something privately and nobody is getting hurt and no laws are being broken, then there is simply no moral judgement to be made in my opinion. +Something as personally important as enjoying my girlfriends or my wife fucking other guys did not occur in a vacuum for me. What follows is the germination of the seed for me to enjoy my ladies having sex with other men. The following isn't a 'story' for Literotica's Loving Wives category. Instead, it is told as background for why I like what I like as a man that enjoys sharing his ladies. + ** _My History ... Coming to Grips with Sharing my First Wife ... it was a tough road ..._** +As a younger man back in the late 1960's and early 1970's I was probably a bit more 'normal' in that I had jealous feeling when guys came on to my girlfriends. In 1968, I entered the Army. While I was away, my girlfriend gave in to every soldier's nightmare ... she met 'Jody' and slept with him. I didn't find out about it until after I left active duty and returned home in 1970. I moved in with my girlfriend as soon as I got home and thought all was well. Was I ever in for a surprise! +My revelations as to her activities while I was away began with late night phone calls from nobody on the line when I answered the phone because it was on my side of the bed. It was always a hang-up when I answered. When she actually answered she would quickly say ""I can't talk now"" and she would hang up. These calls were mostly coming in after midnight. Then, one night I answered but didn't say anything ... 'he' started talking in very slurred language ... obviously stoned ... it was the 70's after all. But he was coherent enough to say ""I need you to come over right now to fuck me ... I need it now"". I immediately hung up and woke my girlfriend. I told her what had happened, and she brushed it off. She was living in a duplex and she told me that the girl next door had an old boyfriend that really wanted to hook up with her, but she just kept telling him no. ""Hmmm"" I thought? +About a week later, she was getting ready for a bath and she had left the bathroom door slightly open. I saw through the open crack that she was climbing into the tub with her t-shirt still on. This was really odd, so I stepped into the bathroom as she sat down into the tub, I lifted her shirt and saw several hickeys on her tits. She tried to tell me she had gotten bruised carrying boxes at work. ""Bullshit"" I said and left. I went away for a couple of hours. When I returned, she was gone and had left a note that she had gone to the laundromat to do our laundry. Gone to do laundry after midnight I thought? Was this more bullshit I wondered? +I was fuming! Then, the phone rang. I picked it up and again didn't say anything ... the guy on the other end of the line said ""THANKS for coming over Bev, I really needed you to fuck me tonight ... It was great"". I hung up and was beside myself with jealousy. I decided I'd go find her. I knew the laundromat that she went to and sure enough her car was there. I walked in and started yelling everything I could think of ... calling her every foul name imaginable. Fortunately, we were alone because had anybody heard me, I'm sure that they would have called the police. I was in a rage. I was very young and full of immature testosterone. We parted with me telling her (actually yelling) I never wanted to see or talk to her again. +I had a friend that had promised to look after her while I was away, in the Army and I went to see him the next day. He told me that he knew that she had been screwing the guy, but I was as much to blame as she was since I had often been a complete asshole when I called her while I was in the Army. I was not a happy soldier doing the things I had to do, and I made the mistake of taking it out on her in my calls. I realized that he was correct. I had been a total asshole. +My friend brokered a meeting between the three of us several weeks later. She and I spilled our guts about my asshole issues and her needing to get back at me by fucking this guy. She told me that she was just a booty call fuck for him. She didn't care when he called, she would just pick up and go fuck him and then come home as if nothing had happened. She said she didn't like him, that she just needed to divert my hostilities when I called and that she would stop seeing him at this point. She said that I should date other girls to see if it made me feel any better. I did and it didn't. It took me about a month of dating others to realize that I wanted her back. +We did get back together after that month. When we had sex, I sometimes thought of her ... having sex with another nondescript guy. It turned me on but after the sex, I was really felt disappointed in myself and a bit guilty at my feelings. Why was I turned on? I tried not to think about her getting fucked during our sex, but it didn't work. When I masturbated, this pretty much occupied my mind. +As time went on, I finally became more and more comfortable with myself fantasizing about her having sex with other men while we were having sex, while I was masturbating and when I was just daydreaming. I conjured up all types of scenarios and types of guys. Interestingly, I almost never fantasized about me having sex with other women. Although, I did have that fantasy about her. +One evening, we were at a restaurant, I went to the restroom. In the stall, there were several inscribed messages by guys saying things like ""I want to watch my wife sucking your cock ... call me at XXX-YYYY). That also stuck in my mind. The food and entertainment were both good and we returned often. I made at least one trip to the bathroom every time we went to 'read the wall'. There were always new inscriptions. Then one night, I screwed up the courage to leave my own inscription ... ""I want to watch guys fuck my girlfriend"" but I didn't have the courage to leave my phone number, so I asked them to leave theirs. I thought of this that night as we had sex, and this was the strongest fantasy sex I had ever experienced! I was mentally hooked. Unfortunately, I couldn't tell my girlfriend. But I did go back to the stall a week or so later ... there were three phone numbers and first names. I jotted them down not knowing what I was going to do. +One day while I was alone, I again screwed up my courage and picked up the phone. I dialed the first number. A lady answered. I hung up. I called the 2nd number. A guy answered and I asked for the name by the phone number. It was him ... I told him I had left the message and wanted to talk to him to see if we were compatible. He was nice and polite, but he sounded like he was about 80. I was 22 at the time and my girlfriend was 21. This wasn't going to work, and I told him so but I had a raging hard on and jacked off as we spoke. I think he knew what I was doing. Several days later, I called the 3rd number. It was disconnected. I tried the 1st number several more times, but the lady always picked up. I finally ceased calling. +By now, I had a whole repertoire of sex scenarios for my girlfriend with other guys. But I still couldn't tell her though. In the mid-1970's we finally got married. I use finally because she was chomping at the bit to tie the knot. All was fine until the late 1970's. I was having issues at work and I was taking it out on her. Again, my fault. Her response was to have an affair with a guy at her work. This time, I wasn't livid. I asked her about it. She wasn't talking no matter how much I asked. But my imagination was still very much in gear and I thought about her fucking him every time we had sex. I kept asking and she kept silent. I'm sure I was pissing her off by my constant asking about the affair. I knew about the affair because her best friend told me about it. +Finally, we decided that we needed marriage counseling. I didn't have a clue what to expect or how to behave. One afternoon during a one-on-one discussion with the therapist she told me that she suspects I was holding something back. I lied and told her ""nope"". But I knew it was a lie and so did she. In our next one-on-one session, I apologized for lying. She said it was okay and asked what I was lying about? +I told her about my fantasies. I pretty much relayed what I have written above. +At that point, she said ""relax ... it is much more common than you suspect"". She told me that she hears this from married guys all the time. The question is, do I want it for real or do I want to keep it a fantasy. +I told her I didn't know. +She also asked if I have ever spoken to my wife about it? +I told her no. +Then she asked if I would be comfortable talking about my desires with her present? +I told her I didn't know about ""being comfortable"" but I was willing to try. I had to wait for two weeks for our next couples' appointment. This gave me time to think about what to say and how to say it. +I was sweating bullets as we sat in the lobby. +My wife noticed and asked why? +I told her because the therapist wanted me to speak openly about some of my feelings and that it frightened me. +She told me she loved me and she hoped I could do what the therapist wanted. +When we were called in, the therapists asked if we had done our homework (we each had little assignments to do between every session). Some of the assignments were joint and some were individual. +She asked my wife first ... I don't recall what it was that she was supposed to do, and I am sure I didn't hear a word she said. +Then, it was my turn ... I was still scared shitless ... +The therapist started to talk when it was my turn probably to introduce the revelation ... but I interrupted blurting out ... ""Bev, I love you and I want to watch other guys fuck you!"" +Silence ... more silence ... then my wife started crying breaking the silence. +""Why"" she asked in a very low voice? ""Are you gay"" she asked? +""NO!"" I answered. +I told her that I didn't know 'why' and all that I did know was it turned me on to think about it. I told her that it was a huge turn-on in my mind. I admitted that I had been thinking these things since learning about the guy she was fucking while I was in the Army and that I couldn't stop thinking about her having sex with other men since her most recent affair. +Our therapist explained to my wife as she had me earlier that in her experience and research, she found that it was pretty common for husbands to imagine their wives having sex with other men and to get sexual gratification from this train of thought. She said that most couples deal with it in the realm of fantasy as in either role playing or telling stories. She suggested this as our next assignment. Try either stories or role playing. +""Role playing"" asked my wife? ""How so""? +""Maybe go dancing and pretend to be strangers and do the 'pick-up' thing"" she suggested. +We agreed to try that. We did and it led to a very enjoyable experience for the evening of dancing and superb sex when we got home. During the sex we continued the role playing as if it were a one-night stand type of encounter. We each picked personas, but we didn't tell each other who we were pretending to be until the role play started. It was a great experience. +After several months of successful role playing, we started telling stories at the end of the evening. When we got home, I switched roles back to myself and asked her ""how she enjoyed her night out with her girlfriends"" which was the story for that night. She then told me the story of the guy she met and danced with and what they did in the back of the bar and again some time later what she did with the guy in the parking lot. It was our start into the world of fantasy sex that would eventually become reality. +The morphing into reality came several years later. We had switched from rock dancing to country and western dancing. I traveled to Sacramento quite often and would meet her at home after flying back on the nights she went dancing where she would tell me a story about what she did. I figured that she was making the stories up but I secretly was hoping that they were real. +One night, I caught an early flight home and thought that I'd surprise her by going to the dance club. Wearing a suit and tie, I was a bit uncomfortable showing up 'out of uniform' as it were and told myself that I'd just pop in, say hi and then head home. +As I was walking toward the front door of the club fishing for my wallet for the cover charge, I saw my wife heading out of the front door with a very young guy in tow. By this time, my wife and I were in our early forties and the guy looked much younger than thirty. My stomach was lodged in my throat! I felt I couldn't breathe and was hyperventilating. What to do? I just stopped in my tracks. +My wife didn't see me, and she led the guy around to the parking lot side of the dance club. I stayed in the front portion of the parking lot but walked to a position where I could see them. They were embracing, kissing passionately and I could see he had both of his hands on her ass. The embrace had knocked her cowgirl hat off and it was on the ground. As they continued to kiss, he lifted her short skirt and was rubbing her ass hard. It was then that I noticed that I had a raging hard-on! This guy was feeling my wife up in the parking lot with people walking by and I was turned on! +A couple of girls walked by them and one of them said ""get a room Bev"". +Then, I heard my wife say ""Good Idea"" breaking away from the kiss and then they all started laughing. +One of the girls asked ""what is your husband going to think""? +She told her ""don't worry ... I'm going to tell him all about it!"" +I was ready to cum! +Bev then took the guy back in tow and led him to her car. I had to relocate for a better view as her car was in the back of the lot that was poorly lit. She had a convertible Miata. He opened the driver's door for her and then went around to get in the passenger side. They started kissing again. He unbuttoned her blouse, she leaned forward so he could undo her bra and then his head dropped out of sight. +I couldn't see, but I instinctively knew that this guy was sucking my wife's tits while I watched. Wearing a suit, my hard-on was ripping to get out. I started massaging myself through my pants. Next, his head came up and they kissed again and he then it looked like he was whispering something in her ear. I assumed he was telling her to start the car so they could go to the motel down the street. +Bev did start her car and I ran to my truck. I followed her out of the parking lot. Instead of turning into the motel down the street, she turned onto the freeway. I followed her. She drove a few miles and exited at the local State College. I followed her into the campus where she pulled into the parking lot near the dorms. I parked behind her and to the right of her a car hoping to remain out of sight. +With the top down, I had a clear view of them both. They kissed for a few minutes and then, Bev's head disappeared into his lap. This was an early Miata without headrests, and he put his arms up on the back of the car and leaned his head back. I had repositioned myself for the third time for a better and slightly closer view. I could see her head going up and down ... my wife was actually sucking this young guy's cock. My heart was pounding like I had just run five miles and I came in my suit without touching myself. I came more than I ever had. My stomach was still in my throat but I absolutely loved what I was watching ... my wife was sucking this young guy off in the parking lot. I was going to jackoff to this scenario for years. The truth is ... I still jackoff to this almost thirty years later. Watching my wife suck this guy off is forever ingrained in my mind and I still love it! I finally had what I had wanted for decades. +Finally, Bev opened her door and spit ... she was spitting his cum into the parking lot. I started my car and slowly drove out of the parking lot hoping they wouldn't notice my truck. I drove home massaging my cock inside my sopping wet suit all the way. It was about midnight when I arrived home. Bev came in about an hour and a half later. +When she came into the bedroom, I could see that she was very disheveled. Her hair was askew, her makeup was a mess, her blouse only partially buttoned and her boots and pantyhose were in her hand. +""How was dancing ...?"" +She cut me off in midsentence. She simply said ... ""I have a story for you ... _and this one is not make believe_."" +Her story, her disheveled hair, her physical condition and the look she had in her eyes hooked me. I was enthralled with what she told me in every detail. She hadn't cleaned up. She had the scent of cum on her breath, her hair was matted with sticky cum, her tits had dried cum on them along with several hickeys and her pussy was swimming in his cum. We made love numerous times that night adding to his cum. This started ten years of an open marriage that was the most sexually charged ten years of my life. I loved sharing Bev with the guys that she chose to be with. +What Bev didn't want was me watching her having sex with other men (I had told her I had seen her sucking the guy off ... he was 22 according to her). She said she wanted to go out on occasion, have a fling and then come home to tell me about it. Unfortunately, she eventually began to experiment sexually with her girlfriends and finally decided that this was the lifestyle she wanted. So, we eventually divorced about ten years later. + **Sharing my girlfriends ...** +Following our divorce, I was unmarried for about ten years and had several girlfriends that were open to ""sharing"". With them, we agreed that I would always be there to watch and sometimes join in and be with her after the other guy left. There were adult oriented websites by this time where the 'rules' were set by the description in one's profile. Being adult websites, you could be pretty explicit about what one was looking for. +I finally remarried about fourteen years ago. I shared my desired proclivities with my new wife before we were married, but she didn't want to have anything to do with such things. So now, I am stuck with my fantasies and memories of which there are a lot. +Now that you know a bit about how and why I came to desire my ladies to have sex with other men, its time to discuss a bit about the philosophy. Your husband's reasons are likely to be vastly different from my reasons. Perhaps you can ask him to tell you 'why"" he wants this? Maybe he can express himself and maybe he can't. + ** _The Sharing Philosophy ... and Some Suggestions for Jumping In ..._** + _First, a disclaimer_. There is one part of this philosophy that I simply don't know anything about or understand because it just isn't my thing. That is the shamed cuckhold husband. It is a control and submissive lifestyle. Therefore, what I say can't apply to this desire. I don't think that there is anything 'wrong' with cuckoldry ... it is just that I don't know anything about it so I can't discuss it. +While I can't discuss cuckoldry, I can discuss ' _sharing_ ' one's wife or girlfriend from my perspective because that is what I enjoy. Sharing is very enjoyable and sensual from my perspective! +So, ladies, if you are considering this because your husband or boyfriend is expressing his desire for sharing you with other men you need to talk to him. Never do anything that you are not completely comfortable with. My current wife doesn't like it. She doesn't even want to tell fantasy type stories. So, we ignore it. I still like it so I am relegated to thinking about it. Yes, I think about her with other men, but I don't discuss it with her. I must respect her choice. While this is somewhat problematic for a truly successful marriage, it is what it is. +When you are talking with your mate, I suggest that you try to get him to open up and share his 'why' reasoning. He might not be able to do this, and he might simply be refusing to tell you even though he is telling you that he doesn't know. Ask him if he reads Literotica.com's Loving Wives stories? Perhaps you can read some of the stories together and discuss them. +What do I think the typical husband wants? Deep down, many guys like to know that other men find their wives/girlfriends are still sexually desirable especially as we age a bit. The very jealous types are the exception to this. Many guys want to see their wives with especially well-endowed men. This is also one of my things. Some want interracial. I also enjoyed this. Some men want their women to get gangbanged. I absolutely love this and took several girlfriends that liked being gangbanged to specialty sex clubs for this. Some older men want to watch their wives with much younger guys. Always stick with legal age guys. Some men want the guys to call the wife nasty names. This may be a problem for you, and it may not. You decide. You should not be demeaned if it isn't your thing. A guy saying ""suck my cock you dirty little slut"" may get your husband off but it just might not get you going. In the end you must feel good about yourself. If being demeaned makes you happy, then, by all means go for it. Otherwise, don't allow it. I'm not sure why, but many guys seem to like saying these things during sex. I just don't get it. Some men just want to control their wives. If this is the case and you allow him to control you out of fear than this really isn't for you. If you just like being told what to do, that is your business. +With what he wants fully vetted between the two of you, YOU should pick the guys you want to play with. They need to be your type not your husband's type. If he has a particular type of guy he wants to see you with, he will tell you and if you spot one that turns you on, all the better. +It is a fair question for you to ask if your husband has any gay or bi tendencies/desires. You need to know this going in. I am open to bi sex on occasion and I enjoyed cum eating. I like the 'just been fucked look (JBF)', feel and taste. I have also participated in three ways with my girlfriends ... there is always inevitable touching that can't be avoided under the circumstances and I enjoyed the situations. I have also had girlfriends that wanted me to suck their lover's cocks. I did this both because they wanted it and I found that I enjoyed it. It certainly isn't for everybody. +Sharing your wife/girlfriend is a bit taboo ... things that are taboo to any extent can be titillating. Try reading some of the stories on Literotica.com under the Loving Wives category to see if they create any sexual arousal in your mind. These stories can certainly spark one's imagination for sharing. Ignore the anonymous trolls in the comments sections. They almost never have anything constructive to say. +A big part of enjoying sex is mental stimulation. Talking often with your partner helps to keep the mental stimulation for the both of you at its peak performance. +I mentioned the fact that the first time I witnessed my first wife having sex with another guy that my stomach was in my throat, I was hyperventilating, I didn't know what to think all the while sporting a raging hard on. While I haven't watched a lady partner having a sexual encounter with a guy for over fourteen years since my current marriage, I nonetheless still had those very same feelings up to the last time I watched. These jitters never go away. They are always a part of the sexual enjoyment. I'm glad that they never go away. I also can feel this way when I imagine my current wife getting fucked. +Keep it special. Don't do it every weekend. A few times a year keeps it special. If you find yourself doing it a few times a month it is going to get boring. Don't let it get boring. I've known couples that go to sex clubs every weekend and end up sitting there playing cards because the sex going on around them just isn't enticing anymore. +Know the risks because there are risks. You might meet somebody that you fall in love with. Your husband might turn out to be jealous if you are enjoying yourself and jealousy can be very dangerous. Agree to talk often about what you are doing. If there comes a time you aren't enjoying yourself, tell him you want to quit. Have a quit clause before you start. I've known some couples that actually have a written contract as a reminder to what the 'play rules' are. +Unless you and your man like collecting bugs, consider safe sex. When I started down this road, sex was safe and cars were dangerous. Now, it's the other way around. +Always listen to your sixth sense. If your brain is saying ' _don't'_ do something in a particular situation, then don't. There will be future opportunities. Never go ahead just because you said yes, a little earlier. No has to mean no and you need to use it if something just doesn't feel right. We have our sixth sense in our DNA for a reason. Always reserve the right to change your mind. +Never get too drunk. You just can't make wise decisions when you are too tipsy. +Having your husband there limits the possibility of date rape drugs. It can't eliminate it, but it certainly does inhibit the chances. +There are also social risks for your health and welfare. Be very careful in selecting who to play with. I was very lucky, as I never had a bad experience. There are simply bad people around that want to teach you a lesson for violating their morals ... they could care less about your morals. These people can hurt you. Read some of the comments by the trolls in the Literotica Loving Wives category. There are some very sick people out there. +Consider what if your friends/family find out (and you didn't tell them). You might be in for a few "" _um -- er -- ah_ "" embarrassing moments. +While my first wife was lucky with sex in parking lots (she seemed to like this as she did it often), understand that the police can and will bust couples for having sex in public places. Being inside your car is considered a public place in the eyes of the law. +In talking with your man, ask what he wants to see you doing? Does he want this just as a verbal fantasy or does he want to make it real? Does he want to join in or just watch? Will he want to take photos/videos? Are you comfortable with your husband watching you have sex? My first wife didn't allow this. My girlfriends in between marriages loved it. Some insisted that I take photos (thank goodness for digital photos). +How will you select play partners? My first wife found her guys at country dancing clubs. Our rules limited her encounters with guys to three times. It seemed to work for the guys but not her girlfriends since they fell in love. There are some dedicated adult friend type websites that worked with my girlfriends between my marriages. I had one girlfriend that was like my first wife in that she liked to meet guys at dance clubs, but I was always there and she told them what we were looking for. Some were so eager that they paid for all the drinks and the motel. Most of the time I paid for both and enjoyed paying the bill. +My suggestion would be to start by considering attending sex parties at well- established adult sex clubs. Believe it or not, all sex clubs understand some new people aren't sure if they want to participate. There is never any pressure to join in. A polite ""no thanks"" ends the question. There are many types of clubs to choose from and most are not expensive. Some give discounts if you bring a dish to share for dinner. Every club that I have attended was very cordial, safe and there are rules such as no touching without asking, no photos and violation of any of the rules gets the offender ejected on the spot. Some clubs have themes such as gangbangs, costumes to wear, BDSM, whether they allow single men or only couples, large ladies, etc. Their websites explain all of this. Do some research on the internet. +If there are any ladies curious as to whether this is something they should be entertaining since their husband/boyfriend has expressed his sharing desires, I hope that my experience helps. I completely enjoyed myself and I very much enjoyed sharing my ladies with other men. I do still wish my current wife wanted to be shared. But, 'No does mean No'." +852,"""Tips on Writing Dialog,"" Said Smokey!",Smokey125,How To,2018-02-10,2018-02-10,2022-01-04 08:24:29,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tips-on-writing-dialog-said-smokey,"""Here's some insight on scribing how your characters speak.""","['"" Said Smokey!', '""Tips On Writing Dialog', 'Dialogue Guide', 'Dialogues', 'Guide', 'How To', 'How To Write Dialogues', 'Tips', 'Writing Dialogue', 'Writing Guide']",,"**_Good Day! I Began Writing This Essay—_** + ** _Tuesday, January 30th, 2018, 6:31 p.m._** + ** _""Well, it means being able to find and arrange just the most effective words to communicate your feelings and explain things.""_** —Dr. Deborah Morelli (""Lying Young"" part 1) +Top of the morning to you! Or, bottom of the evening to you! Or, whenever you happen to be reading. Of the lot of you Readers who are so beloved and treasured to me (yes, buttering you up early; get used to it), one particular individual and fellow author asked me about penning realistic dialogue. A few days before—shameless Smokey plug number one—""Rerouted"" had come out, an especially dialogue-heavy story. It was a piece in which the ability to write strong (and erotic) dialogue especially shines. When you're writing fiction, two disparate animals on your ark are the narrative as a whole, and all of the witty little words framed inside those quotation marks and inverted commas. This essay is to share things I've learned about writing dialogue along my way. I'm by no means any more an ""expert"" than the next yarnwright; I'm merely divulging some of my personal input. +Fundamentally, fiction—literary or otherwise, erotic or otherwise—is a form of entertainment. And while nonfiction can do the same, its entertainment factor is more intransitive. Writing nonfiction is the relation of events that have occurred in real life. And as such, it includes also the citing of speech from real people. Scribing dialogue is not an ingredient in nonfiction, but substituted by quoting the words of others, and crediting them bibliographically. This isn't to say that writing fiction is more challenging than nonfiction, but it involves one unique feat: making your characters come alive through the conversations they conduct. +Tense does not play a part in effective dialogue, but person can. Standard 3rd-person bears the most distant relationship between dialogue and narrative. 3rd-person narrative is conventionally most flowery and ""formal."" 2nd-person reflects interaction; you're addressing an unseen entity, and dialogue will tend to be less prevalent. At the same time, 2nd-person narrative will come across a trifle looser, more personable. In this setting, you'll want your wordage to be ""accessible,"" to both your 2nd-person subject and your Readers (and yes, I always capitalize Readers. You all have Names; you deserve the common courtesy of the power of the Shift key that is used for good and not evil). While 2nd-person connects to a created character, its narrative, in a way, _is_ dialogue. Then of course we've got 1st-person, an essential monologue doubling as narrative around your characters' lines. Whether your 1st-person protagonist is similar to you as the author or not, you'll clearly want her or him to be relatable. In any person, if your Readers don't know what you're talking about, or find the character incredible based on her/his speech, they're going to have a hard time relating. Thus, their enjoyment of the story likely diminishes. They may tire of it, and/or abandon without finishing. This want we not. +Sometimes—shameless plugs two, three, four and five—depending on the nature, a story requires little dialogue. My 1st-person piece ""The Voxe: A Girl And Her Music"" comes to mind. Others—""Rerouted,"" ""Friends And Live-Ins,"" or even ""Lying Young"" or ""Imperfect Strangers""—rely substantially on conversation, to both familiarize Readers with your characters, and to move things along at a steady, entertaining pace. You've got your storyline, arc and so forth mapped out. A character has risen from the depths of imagination, springing to life on the page. You're ready to cull the courageous first words from your character's trembling fledgling lips. So how to proceed that daunting first time you hold Shift and strike the quotation mark key? +***** + ** _""... how do I know that, Bonnie? ... you told me you wanted to be an actress. Have you just been playing some kinda...character with me?? ... what do I even know about you?""_** —Laura McCollum (""Imperfect Strangers"") + **Know your characters.** Every writer has his or her own process. It may help you to write a biography of each character you whip up, major or minor. Or make a list of said characters' traits. Not to share, but to keep and refer to for your own use. One story with a few characters will be simple to keep track of. The further your literary journey takes you, the more characters will blur. After enough new and different characters bloom from the same mind, inevitably, personalities will overlap. Keeping character distinctions in mind will help you shape the unique ways they speak. If you've characters who think, act and live similarly, they'll therefore speak similarly. The most astute and diligent of Readers will take note. Whether the Reader takes this as a positive or negative is an individual poll. Nonetheless, exploring distinction in characters will help you break new ground and cover more territory. You're creating figures that will, to varying degrees, reflect the colorful particles of society. Not just one hue or shade. +Every character, once developed, will have his or her own identity. How far each will go through development is up to you as the author and creator. It's important to develop them to the idiosyncratic level of at least an adult, since all of our major characters involved in a sexual act must be 18 years old. Now that you've got a character ready to grace the page (or screen), ask and answer some identifying questions. For example—perhaps including, but certainly not limited to—how does your character think? How does s/he live, dress, eat, look at the world? Does s/he have any outstanding physical or mental traits? Is s/he introverted or extroverted? How far has s/he come out of her/his social shell? What sort of lifestyle does s/he embrace? What are her/his beliefs? To what philosophies does s/he subscribe? Does s/he swear? How highly is s/he educated? And for purposes of our erotic craft: does s/he have a fetish? What turns her/him on? What kinks does s/he enjoy? How passionately does s/he masturbate or make love? Once your character's developed, you may dig up other applicable queries. +Knowing the type of person a character is will play a part in dictating how she or he speaks. Every human being is different. It goes without saying and ironically also bears repeating: every, human being, is different. And yet, you'll want them to talk, like, normal, people. Yes, that's subjective as hell. So much so that typing the words ""talk like normal people"" pained me just a bit. But once again, an accessible, relatable character will help further a story. It is advisable to write a character particularly flowery or sophisticated language—i.e., speech with a lot of ""big""/advanced words—if congruent with that character's persona. Or when deliberately _in_ congruent, as in the case of satire. _Or_ , when a stretch of realism is desired, for entertainment or comic purposes. Here's an example, from my humorous effort ""Give Me A Little Credit Here,"" with a joke pay-off delivered by the companion character. + _""... I wanna go to slee-e-e-eep!""_ + _Valerie came back with the teacups a matter-of-fact moment later._ + _""You're just going through a state of temporal somnolence due to your circadian rhythm, combined with your somewhat lethargic physiology, which would naturally result in a microsleep condition in your cerebral cortex. Not to mention your pathological adversity to delayed gratification."" ... Donna stared at her._ + _""Great; now I'm tired,_ and _I have a headache.""_ +While Valerie O'Hanlon—the character belonging to this little monologue—is a reasonably intelligent young woman, she is not quite the sort of scientific genius to whip up such a beatless diagnosis of logic on the spot, as she does here. This is the magic of fiction. The temporary suspension of disbelief to accommodate exaggeration. (And, as a side note, the ability to recognize the imbalanced ratio of syllables to words, as in the previous sentence. (Even though that sentence was technically a fragment.) Unless you wish to induce Donna's aforementioned headache, 22 is far too many syllables for eight words.) We're all entitled to a fancy flight of fancy now and then. I find these fun, and yes, to an extent, a way of showing off. I believe showing off is okay, provided condescension is not involved, but fun is. Where you'll encounter a bit more of this prolific prose is via characters who are overly flamboyant (and/or pompous). Think...Frasier Crane, for example. Or...Sheldon Cooper, more recently. +***** + ** _""Well, I notice you punctuated those statements with periods, not exclamation points, so it can't hurt quite_** **that** **_much.""_** —Sandra Burton (""How To Tickle A Girl Insane"") + **Don't worry about punctuation.** I like punctuation. I do. I'm especially fond of em dashes—particularly...and ellipses. I'll readily admit it: I...shamelessly... _abuse_...the ellipsis. Read...my...stuff. No, really...do it. You'll find more ellipses than you can count. Most of them are in my characters' dialogue. 'Tis my friendly advice to be unafraid to abuse the ellipses. They can take it; they're tough little dots. That's why they band together. +But on the whole, friends, don't sweat punctuation in your dialogue. Punctuation is (usually) more a device for cosmetically touching up and decorating your narrative; making it...""pretty."" With the exception of those three little strung-together dots, I use my punctuation in dialogue just the same as in the narrative. The reason I use so many ellipses in speech is rather a personal one. I...often...need a little time to put just the right words together that I want, and in the proper order as well. So as a logical extension, a lot of my characters possess that trait. Also, this is the erotica community. We're writing about sex here. And often also romance, love and relationships. We take our time having real-life conversations in these areas. Some of us get emotional, downright weepy. And take a _lot_ of meaningful pauses between words. It's a logical distinction to me to write these lines as they would be said in a real-life setting, by real people, in real situations. +Ellipses represent those pauses we take when we need those spare seconds to come up with our next words. It's the same reason I keep all the ""uh""s, ""erm""s, ""eh""s, ""um""s. And the reason when in dialogue, I write ""gonna,"" ""wanna"" and ""gotta,"" instead of ""going to,"" ""want to,"" ""got to."" The appropriate syntax is reserved for the narrative. In dialogue, we want to connect. Excuse me; we _wanna_ connect. Real people. Real speech. Real Americans, I should amend. I'm American, as are most of my characters. That's our casual, somewhat even crude speech. Because for all intent and purpose, as far as your Readers want to be concerned, that's what these characters are. They're _them_. The man on the street, the girl next door. Your favorite schoolteacher, the kindly shopkeeper, even the creepy wicked old neighbor way down the end of the block. Once again, relatability. Accessibility. Which brings me to my next tip... +***** + ** _""What you did was way wronger—or, oh,_** **oh** ** _, ex_** **cuse** **_me, Sergeant Grammar—way_** **more** **_wrong.""_** —Dale Sunderland (""Who's Teaching Whom?"") + **Grammar is not something from the metric system.** Remember when I mentioned the pompous blowhard-ish sitcom character Frasier Crane above? Well, the actor who played him is called (Kelsey) Grammer, with an 'e.' Not to be confused with the facet of the English language that infuriates its speakers more intensely than any other. While proper grammar is important on the narrative side of things, for the dialogue, let's return to our ""keep it real"" philosophy. Slip yourself into the Reader's proverbial shoes, and bear in mind that: most non-writers play fast and loose with the rules of grammar in their casual speech. And even as authors, do let's be honest. Decent grammar's important, but the butchering thereof won't singlehandedly destabilize the entire structure of Homo sapien communication. Typical casual-speak is congruent with efficient conversation on sex, love, romance, and the like. When laboring to assert one's feelings in these areas, only the most pedantic will take care to ensure perfect grammar. And we can't really fault them for it; they're pedants, after all. It's what they do. +Being a proponent of grand grammar, I adhere to its rules in my narrative. I too understand, however, how few share this penchant. Which is why my dialogue grammar is looser. A character of mine is far more likely to say ""me and my friends"" (rather than ""my friends and I""), for instance. And truthfully, I think that's fine. See previous paragraph. This goes back to knowing your characters and determining which are sticklers and which aren't. Upon thorough analysis of who your character is and how s/he operates, puzzle pieces like this will start naturally falling into place. One of the goals is to mirror the patterns and quirks of common everyday yackety-yak. Here's another tactic I use only in dialogue, to make it read more real. What with our habit of running words together in sentences, I'll semi-often contract _any_ words. Not just pronouns or helping verbs. Here's an example of that, most recently, from ""Rerouted,"" involving the plural noun ""dreams"" and a conjugation of ""to be""— + _""Y'know, they tell us when we're young that we can do anything, be whatever we want, our dreams're real, sky's the limit, blah blah. Then you grow up and find out for yourself the hard way.""_ +A fitting example, as that quote also has a contraction of ""you know"" at the beginning. By this token, one could say I harshly abuse the apostrophe as well. That's fair. But as speakers of the English language, this _is_ how we say things. We can't even help it; it's the way we're brought up, listening to—and thus learning—common, casual speech. I feel it important to note, however, this is a technique I use because it makes the flow more genuine for me. If your technique is to spare the apostrophes and type the contractions out, great. Readers, for the most part, won't be perturbed on this issue one way or the other. +And another thing, folks: this ain't no classroom! Remember what Burger King said a few decades ago: sometimes you've gotta break the rules. In the narrative _or_ the dialogue. _Unless_ you have a character who's an English teacher, like in my above-quoted story ""Who's Teaching Whom?""...go ahead and end your sentences with prepositions. Throw a few ""ain't""s in there. Do whatever you like to make it feel realer for _you_. To make it easier to read, for both you and your audience. And more fun! Some Readers like to read stories out loud, to themselves or someone else. Some even like to affect the different characters with contrasting voices. I read my stories out loud, pre- submission, as a proofreading measure. This makes it easier to find notes and changes as I go along. It also helps me more easily recognize whether a sentence flows well, or runs on too long. Which leads to... +***** + ** _""... you've already served a pretty impressive sentence in_** **my** **_little prison here. And somehow, I have a feeling you won't be doing anything like that again.""_** —Miss Farrah (""Beyond Hell And Back III"") + **Don't bite off more than you can chew!** Don't get me wrong, either; you should feel a little freer to run with sentence structure in your dialogue. After all, it breaks up the more rigid etiquette of the narrative. Returning to an earlier point, if it serves the effort of humor, character or plot, by all means, kick in a long-ass run-on sentence now and then! Do everyone including yourself a favor, though, and add well-placed pacing punctuation. Obviously, you're an author; you know what you're doing with your periods/full stops. (And if you don't, step away from this essay immediately, obtain a time travel machine and return to elementary school.) Otherwise, for heaven's sake, toss a few commas in there—if for no other reason, to spare the Reader the chore of going back over the sentence to analyze how it should be read. If applicable, drop in a nice colon or semi-colon. Let the Reader know where s/he will want to take a little caesura. And if one form of punctuation is being overused, mix it up a little. Parentheses (brackets) and dashes are often interchangeable. Commas can happily mingle with ellipses. I'm not personally a fan of the asterisk in a body of text, but if they gel with you, use them for emphasis. I also don't care for ampersands replacing ""and"" in standard text, but again, that's just me! +Another thing I'll find myself doing often in dialogue is highlighting emphasis, with _italics_. That is of course a formatting choice. Italics work best for me. I reserve **bold** face for my segment headings. Or if some other special circumstances is being applied to the story. And I don't really underline anything. You might use italics, bold or underline for your emphasis—whatever your preference—even a combination thereof, if your character is _really_ adamant in what s/he's saying. Formatting can be useful also to break up the homogenous appearance of a sentence, and let the Reader know something emphatic is coming up. Of course, the same can be accomplished with exclamation points or interrobangs (question marks clustered with exclamation points). Especially in dialogue, my general rule with e.p.s and q.m.s is that two is the limit. That stringing together more than two e.p.s or q.m.s to conclude a sentence is overkill. And vis-à-vis incredulous questions, my interrobang is always?!, never!?.!? does not make sense to me. +Question marks of course have their place, but I feel you can never have too many exclamation points. I'm not saying you _need_ them, I'm saying you should feel free to use as many as you want. Hey, characters in your stories can get excited! Don't squelch their enthusiasm!! Don't end absolutely _everything_ with an exclamation point, but I say be as otherwise liberal as you like. Hell's bells, friends, it's not like they're in short supply. You'll not want the Reader to feel s/he's being screamed at, and for that reason you may not want to get too trigger happy on that Caps key. I prefer the italics to caps anyway, and most folks associate all-caps with being shouted at. Hey, if that's what you're going for, have at it. Especially in your dialogue. That's why I say use as many exclamation points as you want. It'll help your characters get their emotions out, and if your Readers see themselves in these characters, this in turn can help the Reader get similar feelings off his/her chest. So be emotive! Be passionate! Be expressive! And, speaking of which... +***** + ** _""I am not apologetic about my expressions.""_** —Rachel Greentree* (""Happy Endings IV"" *Yes, Rachel is another character from the ""Hell And Back"" series, but she pops up in one scene of ""Happy Endings"" installment four as well. One of my infamous character crossovers.) + **Toy around and be playful with some common expressions.** This is a device that can really breathe a bit of fresh, fun life into a story. And it works far better in dialogue than in narrative. This is probably the most colorful piece of advice I can offer, and will add a dash of uniqueness to your characters. There are lots of common, everyday figures of speech we've heard all our lives, and putting a clever twist or tweak on them can nicely spice up a spoken sentence.

Wicked awesome to meet'cha, E.""_** —Tabby Weeks, (""Erica Versus The House"") + **Spectacular vernacular.** The quote opening this segment is from a story set in the '80s. If you were around back then, you may have guessed that already. There is another semi-period piece I wrote a number of years ago, partially set in the same decade. And I'm sure they won't be the last. I still _love_ the '80s, all the elements of pop culture comprised therein. I also wrote a more recent one set in the '90s, focusing more on the '90s ""slanguage""...ugh, now _there_ 's an ugly portmanteau for ya. I grew up in the '80s and '90s, but the only thing I really enjoyed about the latter decade was making fun of it. Well, that, and the fact that the world was doing well economically. +Since very early on, each story I've written has had a very specific year, date and time setting. Most of them have been set in the present relative to when the story was written. Then there are the few mentioned above, the period pieces. I think that helps lend perspective. Imagination supplies the rest, of course, but I believe if you have a concrete fix on when your events are taking place, you can gain a bit more realism by taking yourself to that date or era. +That could just be me. I'm not suggesting you start adding time-and-date headings to your story segments like I (...then again, I'm not suggesting you _don't_ either), I'm simply explaining this part of my process. When you write dialogue, it's helpful to have these sorts of walls, if you will, to throw stuff against and see if it sticks. If it's pertinent or adds to the storyline, your characters can be discussing the weather, or approaching holidays. They can be gabbing in the morning about what they're going to do today, or summarizing their day in the evening. They can bring up their birthdays and how long it is till the next one. +On the broader spectrum of time, going back to this section's first paragraph, you've got the proposal of eons to consider. Your story doesn't have to have a set year or era, of course. But if it does, be true and respectful to it. Track down some TV or literature from the period and examine the original dialogue therein, back when this year or decade you're focusing on was actually happening. Or listen to time-appropriate stand-up comedians and any then-topical subjects they joked about. (Humor, after all, is of course funny because it's true. It's a cliché, but an accurate one.) You can use slang from your chosen epoch—especially if you feature young characters—and make some time-relevant pop culture references. That too helps take Readers back and feel a bit nostalgic. Sometimes it's nice to go revisit those simpler times in our lives. If laboring to really get the Reader to that specific point in time, you can lay it on a _little_ thick (be careful). As with all decisions writing a story, exercise your best judgment. +But don't go overboard with it, and let the references distract from the actual story. It's a line I've ridden and crossed a few times. It's true, the time references are fun, fun _ny_ , and a bit of a guilty pleasure. But it's possible, and not too difficult, to get carried away with them. This whole point is basically to urge you to do your research, and be period-accurate with the way your characters will speak. Whether your story's set in 2018 or 1978, it's wise and advisable—if not to have your finger firmly fixed on the pulse of the given time's vernacular, then at least in the adjoining vein. And on a similar note... +***** + ** _""Oh yes, yes, indeed. Me best mate Nigel, from grammar school. We'll probably sort out something to do together, but I'm sure he'd love to meet you as well. He's a great happy chappy; super-friendly. So, tell you what: why don't you let me give you me number, you can put it in your mobile, go take your shower, and then you can ring me ...""_** —Sophie Trimble (""A Night At Millicent's"") + **Respect the space, too, not just the time.** That quote—again, as if you couldn't tell—is from a British girl. It's an example of the more drawn-out degree to which non-Americans distinguish their speech. I'm American, so all points like this are going to be centered from that perspective. ""Millicent's"" is about as ""British"" a story as an American writes. It takes place in America, but half of the dialogue and even a good deal of the narrative is Anglo-flavo(u)red. I've always been quite the Anglophile to begin with. And this protagonist, Sophie, loves being British, and loves hearing Americans tell her they like her accent. So she lays it on semi-thick with the accent and the Brit-speak. +This section isn't about British people—in particular—but about global geography, and the peoples and cultures contained in it. This pretty much parrots what the last one did: if you're going to showcase character nationality and reflect it in the dialogue, again, be accurate. Do your research. This naturally goes whether your figure is from another hemisphere, another continent, another adjacent country, or just another United State. So you've got a character foreign to your native or set land. First of all, as aforementioned, be respectful and true. Then, be natural and real in playing out your story elements. +All of my stories are set—at least in part—in a fictional Minnesotan city called Juniper. (Not to be confused with Garrison Keillor's legendary ""fictional"" Minnesota town Lake Wobegon.) It's in southeast Minnesota, part- way between Minneapolis, Rochester, and the Wisconsin/Iowa state lines. As a result, most of my main characters are natural born and raised Minnesotans/Juniperites. Then a number are from other areas of the U.S., having moved or visited to Juniper. Sometimes their dialogue reflects this, if the subject comes up. (See ""Eleven,"" for instance. Some of ""Eleven"" is a bit of a love letter to MN.) +One thing accessible and likable to me about Minnesota is its German and Scandinavian settlement. I don't know a ton about Germany or its populace. But on the Nordic side, I actually do know a lot about Sweden, specifically, its natives and language. There have been some major Swedish characters sprinkled through a few of my works. Which is fun, because it presents the novelty of dialogue in another language. Especially one that is so obscure in the States. English is of course America's primary language, and Spanish is a very close second. Then French and German, and so on. If you speak another language and want to incorporate bi- or trilingual dialogue, I say it can be a good idea. It can give the story a unique taste, and the character a bit of exoticism. Don't, however, allow yourself to ""show off"" too much, or lord this over the Reader. Unless part of the plot specifically focuses on a character's language or heritage, keep it to a controlled level. If both or all characters speak the same language—and that language is separate from the narrative's—you might consider including a translation in parentheses. Not unlike the way television and movies slip in subtitles. And one other thing... +***** + ** _""Just one more time, thanks so much for today, Lilly. It was_** **just** **_what I needed. I had so much fun.""_** —Colleen Flowers (""Housekeeping!"" part 2) + **Have fun.** Bottom line: it's the story itself that's most vital. Whether in dialogue or narrative. If you're writing along and catch yourself being distracted by an event or characteristic not integral to the plot, hit the brakes and throw it in reverse. Penning dialogue can and should be enjoyable, and a good helping of it can really help a Reader get to know your characters. And for heaven's sake, give it a semi-unique spin. Let yourself outside that box! This is a bit of a fine line. You don't want nothing but huge words that will make the Reader's head spin. But you also don't want mere dull phrases that get thrown and bandied about by ordinary folk all the time. You're a writer. The English language—or whatever language you're primarily writing in—is your home. Your Readers want to be entertained. That's why they come to these sites, or go to the bookstore. They don't want to be lectured, they don't want to be patronized or talked down to, and they certainly don't want to be bored. +Here's a good, easy way to have fun. Our shared medium in this community is erotica. Now, this is pretty basic 101 stuff, but it's good advice for a reason. It works. _Indulge_ yourself. Get your personal kinks out there, in living color! You may feel alone in your fetish or liking for...anything, really. To be bracingly honest, it's human to feel that way. To go off on a slight tangent, we've been shamed as a species for a long time for our fascination on sex. Well, guess the hell what. There's a lot of stuff out there to be intrigued by, and believe it or not, there're more other individuals that share your interests or kinks than you think. Trust me on that one. +So feel that sense of freedom. Get your characters _into_ it! Let them talk to each other while doing the deed—whichever deed they're enjoying. Let them laugh, let them cry, let them scream to the heavens how great it feels. It's good for them, and good for you. Your fetish may not be the most ""common"" one out there (what is?), it may even make you feel like a creep. Channel those feelings into energy and words on the page/screen. Reach out, muster the courage to put it out there. And whether visible feedback comes or not, people are reading. They may be skimming, they may have stumbled onto the page by accident, but who knows? Take a step back and realize that your work has claimed the attention of someone else for a moment. And how it may have affected them. There's nothing wrong or shameful in creating a character just like you, and building an entire story around them, flaws and all. In fact, it can be therapeutic. Your true feelings will come out in your execution. If you had fun writing it, the audience'll have fun reading it. +And _try_ not to be discouraged by low numbers or negative comments. Or by _no_ comments. Believe me, NO ONE knows how challenging this can be more than I do. But while lots of Readers are loyal enough to keep coming back to visit and spend a little time with you, they also have busy lives. And this is tough to hear (read), I know, but your stories aren't the only ones they're checking out. Don't get piffed off because they liked another story and not yours. Swallow the pride, suppress the ego. Pride and egos are dumb anyway. Be humble and modest, and that way people won't keep trying to knock you off your pedestal that you built yourself. Takes a lot of energy to keep getting back up there, doesn't it? Maybe take a break from writing and read that other story they liked. You might even like it too, or take something from it. Or, you might _not_ like it. And that's okay. This was a hard lesson for me to learn, but we can't go into this just looking for the reviews. They're nice when they come along, and stories are going to represent valleys and peaks. Some are going to be better than others. Some are going to perform better than others. Just the way it is. +You can always come back to your Word document, or your pad and pen(cil). And for you non-Microsofters...I'm sorry, I don't know what you use. Point is...if you want to write, just do it. Sometimes it takes awhile for inspiration to strike. If it doesn't come naturally, or you're feeling lousy because your last story didn't do well, maybe just let a little time pass. Sometimes it's just what the proverbial doc ordered. These stories and characters are extensions of ourselves. And it does feel validating when people like them. So my final piece of advice is...and this might seem crazy, but hear (read) me out: just _assume_ the Readers like them. At least a little. Clearly, not everyone's going to _love_ what you put out there. You can't assume that. But even something small in the story—a character quirk, a bit of body language, a cute, clever turn of phrase... _some_ body's going to enjoy _some_ thing. Take comfort in it. Know and be confident you're putting out something you believe in, that means something to you. And even if no feedback rolls in, imagine the Reader just sitting by her/himself awhile, finishing your story with a smile. Maybe a giggle, maybe an ""awww""...maybe even a tear. You may not be aware of it, but someone's life _might_ just be made a little brighter, or more inspired, because you placed a fictitious character on their screen and in their life...who figuratively and literally spoke to them in just the right way." +853,Tips to Save Money,JagFarlane,How To,2013-02-21,2013-02-21,2022-01-04 08:40:57,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tips-to-save-money,A couple of ideas to start saving money.,"['Cooking', 'Money']",4.28,"Yup, another article written on how to save you money, but it's such an important topic that it's worth at least another look at. I realize a lot of folks are just now looking at how to save themselves some money but really I think we should just work the ideas into our everyday lives. What I'm going to discuss here is what should be a fairly simple way to put aside some money and can, if you wish it to, have the ability to help make your life a bit healthier. That way, of course, is by cooking your own meals. The other way to cut down on the bills, for those already accustomed to cooking, is to learn to use everything. +I think it kind of scares me, not at the number of people who go out to eat all the time, but the number of especially younger generation that can't cook to save their lives. Cooking used to be considered a basic skill and yet for some reason or another the amount of people that do cook seems to have gone down. A significant part of the reason that it seems to be a declining trend is the amount of time that people have available to them. We are all very busy and I am no different in that aspect, I assure you, but if saving money is your goal you'll need to learn to make the time for it. +How much money can one save by cooking? Well in a bit of an over the top, but very real demonstration this past Valentine's Day my significant other and I had a surf and turf dinner which we cooked ourselves. The menu included porterhouse steaks, lobster tails, baked potatoes, and grilled summer squash. The total sum we paid for this was under twenty-five dollars and a comparable meal at the local chain steakhouse would have easily run us sixty-eight dollars plus drinks, tax, and tip. Huge difference but remember the restaurant has to pay rent, utilities, taxes, salaries, and still make a profit so that's part of what you're paying for. +One more advantage of cooking our own meal was being able to avoid the dinner rush at the restaurants. Even on non-holidays restaurants can get slammed during the dinner hours making for long waits and of course you always run the risk of getting bad service. +But I've digressed too much, at any rate learning to cook is the first step in saving a lot of money, even just every day cooking can save quite a bit of money. Ever tried to make spaghetti? Seriously it's as easy as putting noodles into a pot of boiling water for a few minutes and heating up a jar of sauce and significantly cheaper than going out to an Italian restaurant. Stews are just mixes of vegetables, some spices, and some sort of cut up meat. Throw it in a crock pot on low for eight or so hours and there is dinner. Do yourself a favor and just look up some easy, basic recipes give them a try and enjoy. +For those already familiar with cooking there are two things I'd suggest trying, cooking with more basic ingredients and using everything that you paid for. It's a bit scary when one thinks about how many useable items we throw out because we're not sure what to do with it. Also, a lot of prepared foods tend to cost quite a bit more than buying and using more basic ingredients and with a little extra time we can save quite a bit of money. +Using basic ingredients is a first step, learning to make our own pancake mix and breads for example. It really doesn't take much longer than pulling out the bag to make pancake batter and in the case of bread, machines can make the process much smoother and quicker. You'll also find that by making your own mixes and such that you're cutting out a lot of unnecessary ingredients that manufacturers put in for appearance and long term preservation. +The bigger issue I think is in learning to use everything, the biggest example is in the use of bones. Most people I know will throw out things like the bones from a ham or a chicken. The ham is a little easier to work with so I'll go over that one but the basics can be used on any other sort of bone, it may just take more work. +The ham bone and often the chunk of fattier meat around it tend to be thrown out after people serve the preferred cuts off the ham. Why this is, well I suppose people just don't think about what they could do with it. Instead of throwing out the bone, throw it into a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Allow the bone and water to simmer for a few hours until you've made a nice, ham broth. Take the bone out, return in a little bit of small pieces of ham, a bag of rehydrated split peas, some cut up carrots and potatoes, and you have a split pea soup. Not a difficult task by far and it makes use of a part that most people throw out. +Really, saving money is something I think just about everyone is interested in and honestly there are so many ways to do it that it would take a series of books to go over it. I hope though, that you take away a few ideas or at least have become interested enough to start looking around at things in a different light as to what they could be used for. Cooking just happens to be one of the largest things that many people can take up changes in to save them money.

Vampire slaying can be a very daunting task your first time out and it requires a lot of skills that most people build up over a life time. If you're reading this book you obviously don't have the time to learn these skills gradually. Perhaps your brother was turned into a vampire and you need to kill the head vampire before it becomes permanent. Maybe you've been bitten yourself. Whatever the reason is that you're getting ready to embark upon this quest you shouldn't go unprepared. +We'll start with the basics because that's what's most important. Getting through the second encounter. I say the second encounter because since you've lived long enough to read this you've already survived your first encounter. Congratulations. Ninety nine point nine (repeating of course) percent of people fail what you've accomplished. You have survived a vampire. So go pour yourself a drink, you're going to need it. +We should start by identifying the precise species of vampire you've encountered. Yes there are several different species of vampire and knowing exactly what you're up against makes a lot of difference as to what equipment you should carry. Right now I would recommend hanging cloves of garlic from all the windows and doors of your house as well as pouring salt along those entrances. If you have a welcome mat or anything welcoming people into your home displayed outside bring them inside right now. These are only precautions they do not protect you against all species of vampire but you're better off with these things in place. I'll start by describing the most common species. If you encounter and survive a new species please notify me so I can adjust this list. Lives depend on it. +Vampirus Buffus: One of the more common species since the late nineties is Vampirus Buffus. This is good because they are one of the weaker species of vampire. They have no special powers of shape shifting or hypnosis. They aren't especially strong either. They can be killed by decapitation, fire, sunlight or a stake through the heart. Upon death they turn to dust. Crosses work against this species burning them like touching a hot iron. You should take into account that it's just a hot iron you're waving around if the vampire wants you bad enough he'll bat it away or even let you burn him so he can kill you. There are also a few twisted ones who get off on pain. Holy water has a similar effect. There is a single known subspecies of this breed known as a Turokon. They are much stronger and their hearts are encased in bone making it difficult to pierce. +Vampirus Bladicus: This is another common species. It is similar to the Vampirus Buffus in that decapitation or UV rays are fatal to this breed. Like Vampirus Buffus they have no shape shifting or hypnosis. Wooden stakes just piss them off so don't waist your time. Silver bullets will kill them and is the preferred method of destruction. There is a formula that I am no privy to that will make their heads exploded. I personally don't recommend searching for this because honestly silver bullets will suffice. This species is very fast, able to dodge bullets even at close range if they are aware of your attack. There is also a known subspecies of Vampirus Bladicus with a barbed tongue. The subspecies is only vulnerable to UV radiation. +Vampirus Stokus: While increasingly uncommon in number this is your most basic vampire. They can be killed in all of the ways mentioned previous to this entry. In addition they can not cross directly over water. They can change into mist, bats and wolves seemingly at will and must sleep during the day unlike the previous species which must avoid sunlight but can otherwise remain active during the day. +Vampirus Hellinius: You're screwed. No pure human has ever survived combat with one of these monsters so if you've seen one and lived it's for a reason. +There are several other species of vampire that are only known in certain regions. Eventually texts will be written to identify such beasts as the Kami No Oni, the Japanesse vampire that must count anything placed in front of it before moving on which is fortunate in a land where rice is a staple part of the diet. Just throw dinner on the floor and escape. I will also explain now to defeat a Lenku Gar, the African vampire. It's not a true vampire, it eats skin rather than drink blood. Very gross. +Now I'll explain to you the weaknesses of various vampires so you can be better able to protect yourself. This is just going to be a quick list of weapons and protective to keep on yourself at all times. +Crosses are only effective about fifty percent of the time but since you can pick on up on a necklace at your nearest store for a few bucks I recommend it. It is important that the cross be visible in order to have it' effect. +Holy Water is again only effective fifty percent of the time. If your cross works there is a good chance that Holy Water will as well. If you find yourself in this position I recommend asking your local priest to bless as much water as you can. Trust me on this Holy Water Balloons are far more effective than Holy Hand Grenades. Particularly because there is no counting involved. +Wooden Stakes are a staple and often times slay the vampire outright. However if the body does not turn to dust I recommend decapitation AND cremation. There is a reason for this. Some species like Stokus aren't slain by a stake to the heart. Instead it pins them to the earth. If someone removes it the vampire can attack you and he'll be upset. If you decapitate him and that doesn't kill him and someone removes the stake he might throw his head at you. In my experience a flying head with teeth is an unpleasant thing to have thrown at you. Cremation may not happen fast enough. If the stake burns before the vampire does you have a flaming vampire coming after you. A friend of mine had third degree burns over half his body because he failed to take this precaution and had to wrestle a flaming vampire. Fortunately he had another stake on him and was able to defeat his attacker. +Silver doesn't work very often but when it does it solves all of your problems. Since it's also useful against werewolves, which occasionally are found in the employ or more recently at war with vampires I recommend having some around. Silver bullets are best but expensive. Silver arrowheads and a crossbow is cheaper because you can retrieve and reuse your ammunition. If you're trained with a sword lining it with silver is also a viable plan. +Fire and sunlight work on all known species of vampire which is good. If you've got a flame thrower you're pretty much set. For the rest of us orange juice concentrate mixed with gasoline makes for a good substitute for napalm. UV flashlights are also available and make a fine deterrent and even weapon in some cases. You should have a flashlight in your anti-zombie kit and in your earthquake kit as well I recommend you spring the extra for UV just encase this situation should occur. +You're human though and that means you're probably on the defense here. Your first line of defense is your home. The Buffus and Stokus species are unable to enter a home uninvited. However if they are invited they can enter anytime after that. So never invite strangers into your home at night. This only applies to a residence a store is a public place and thus all are invited by the nature of the place. Some hunters and slayer have suggested that a welcome mat at your front door counts as an invitation which is why I recommend removing these during an encounter, and in general not having them. Get something with a bunny rabbit or God Bless but nothing that could count as an invitation. +You're second line of defense is daylight. All vampires are weak during the day and this is when you should attack if you must and when you should escape if you can. There isn't much to tell you about sunlight. It has been noted that if you live above the Artic Circle where the sun can set for weeks at a time you're fucked. It can also be noted that if you live in a place like Seattle where it always rains. . .honestly you were going to kill yourself sooner or later anyway. I recommend you feed yourself to the vampire to keep it out of my neighborhood. +Salt, garlic and other cooking items are usually worthless but in some cases a vampire may be unable to cross a line of salt. Since you can make a line of salt beneath your carpet there is no reason not to be covered in this aspect but it probably won't work. Garlic is the same way, often useless but you can try it if you like. However if you must use food in your defense I recommend eggplant. Why eggplant? Because it's disgusting and I hope that any self respecting vampire would refuse to eat anybody who eats eggplant. +That about covers your offense and defense. You can identify a vampire species through its powers and weaknesses which will allow you to kill it when the time comes. So all that's left is how do you locate the vampire to kill? There are three popular methods none of which I recommend but I will tell you them anyway. The first is to use yourself as bait. If you're a woman go wear your best ""come bite me"" outfit. It's the same one that makes human males want to bite you, if you need assistance choosing please send me pictures, remember your life may depend on this. I will respond. Then you wait to be attacked and slay the vampire. This only works in movies for girls with super powers. The rest of us cannot safely employ this method. +The second method involves letting the vampire feed and then following it back to its lair then attacking some time during the day. The advantage to this plan is that you can attack during the day which makes the vampire easier to deal with. The real flaw in this plan is vampires are fast so you might not be able to keep up, they are also very intelligent and may have know you are tracking them. If they are not sleeping during the day you may just have delivered them a midday snack. Just like you appreciate it when the pizza man shows up I the middle of the night with a free pizza vampires appreciate people who show up midday without proper planning. +The third and least common method is also he newest. It involves tracking the beast based on locating its hunting ground and working out the most likely location for it's lair. Just like those UCLA professors found Osama Bin Ladin using human migration patterns the same thing works on vampires. This method is safe, but I don't recommend it because it's imprecise and leads to people getting sloppy. Basically it narrows it down to a specific neighborhood but it then you have to go door to door. People get mad when you douse them with water for no good reason. Worse you get bored after the first three houses. +My favorite method is to let the word out that you know about the vampire and call him out. He'll come to you, and you can set your home up as a giant vampire trap. You'll have home court advantage, you'll have weapons stashed for your immediate use and best of all traps. Walk through the wrong door? BAM bucket of Holy Water falls on your head. Take that Dracula! Turn on the light so you can see? UV rays for growing my weed! How do you like me now Count? +Remember that as long as the vampire still has a body there is still a chance that it will return. So if whatever method you chose to employ didn't destroy the body utterly you must. As mentioned earlier always decapitate and cremate the corpse. If you're feeling especially thorough you can mix the ashes with salt and Holy Water and then bury the remains on hallowed ground. +If you have a specific question not answered here please leave a comment or write me directly. The information I can give you may be what saves your life.

So make sure you have the following. +•A knife: I personally recommend two, the first being a Kabar, the knife of choice of the military and for good reason. The second being a Swiss Army knife. You never know when you might need something random. +•First Aid Kit: This is the end of the world we're talking about. You or someone close to you is going to need first aid kit. It might be for the pain killers, it might be for the disinfectant, it might be for the butterfly bandages. I would also highly recommend you take a basic first aid class. +•Extra clothing: I can't predict the future and neither can you. Whether your shirt was shredded by rampages zombies, a turn of weather made it too cold for that skimpy two piece you wear when you think nobody is watching or you find a naked girl sleeping in the woods. Regardless you can't go wrong with extra clothing. I would also suggest more clothing than less. A lot of you are thinking a big bulky jacket'll do ya and it might. But you're better off with layers that can be added and removed as the circumstances change than an all or nothing approach. Trust me you'll regret it. +•Raingear: Again unless you can predict the future, control the weather or both you're better prepared than not. Now here is a place where I personally take a few short cuts. I'm a fan of a can of scotch guard and the next time you have a pair of pants your about to throw out make em waterproof. Same with a sweater or long sleeve shirt. Alternatively you can always rip a a couple of holes in a trash bag and call it a day. Sure you'll look like a dork but this is the end of the world not Sunday Chuch! Also you might find other uses for trash bags down the line. +•Water: I recommend no less than two gallons. How you store it is up to you. I tend to use jugs but I've seen very compelling arguments that water bags are better because once they are empty you can roll them up to save space. +•Flashlight: I think I'll simply ask you a question dear reader. Can you see in the dark? That's what I thought. Now before I move on I'm going to briefly mention something. If you've spent your entire life in the city you don't actually know what darkness is. While there is no substitution for the real thing the closest you're likely to get in your home is to wait until the dead of night and turn off everything electric in the house. Everything. That's darkness. Don't expect that the stars and the moon will provide the kind of light they do on television. It's better than nothing of course but you could very easily walk right off a cliff in the dark. Which would render the other items on this list moot. +•Trail Mix: Okay I don't like trail mix and really it's a short term plan anyway. Basically it boils down to your body metabolizing candies faster than nuts and grains so a mix of the two should give you immediate energy and lasting energy. Still since I'm talking about surviving an apocalypse not hiking the Grand Canyon. (As I write this quite possibly the last people to ever hike the Grand Canyon have been expelled. Thanks Obama!) +•Sun protection: Again this is kinda short term thinking. It won't last forever but it can be vital in those first days. I recommend having enough clothing and a wide brimmed hat though so you can simply cover your flesh. Whatever you may think about the Middle Easterners you should be able to accept that they know a thing or two about surviving a desert and if it works for people in Iraq it'll serve you just fine. +•Map and compass: This last one is one that I'm extremely hesitant to suggest but I'm told by my colleagues that I would be remiss in not mentioning it and ultimately got argued down. (See I let you guys win sometimes!) Personally I think that unless I dump you out in the middle of the wilderness a map and compass is a lot less useful than a street map and you don't need a compass to use a street map. By contrast if you are dropped in the middle of nowhere and you don't know how to properly use a map and compass you're probably more likely to hurt yourself than anything else. +Okay that's our standard bit of information that I really hate to repeat but it's been a while and my co-conspirators keep telling me that I have way way too much fun with these and I completely forget that repetition is the key to memory. So yeah go read that list again. Good. I hope you're taking notes they'll be a quiz at the end! +Anyway I've yet to tell you how to survive an onslaught of the most dangerous creatures ever walk the face the earth. These were creatures who's bones inspired the legends of dragons. Who to this day inspires the modern day mythmakers known as movie magicians to put out some of their most inspired works. We're talking of beasts so enormous in scope that it's difficult to fathom them as human beings. We're talking of course about the mighty thunder lizards. Dinosaurs. +Now we have to start with a little bit of the science involved here mostly so I confuse you too much but also so you can earn that neat little golden star when you school someone. So the first thing you should know is that dinosaurs come from a period of geological history known as Cenozoic Era. The Cenozic Era was made up of three separate and distinct portions called Sentences. The first, known as the Cambrian saw fish, insects and early amphibians. The second, known as the Jurassic was the time of the dinosaurs which was followed by the Mesozoic era which is famous for the Mammoths and Sabretoothed tigers. We'll be focused of course on the Jurassic. +Next lets briefly cover the fact that there are some things that are not dinosaurs that are commonly referred to as dinosaurs. Dinosaurs exclusively walk. If it doesn't walk it's not a dinosaur. The flying ones are pterosaurs and they have no living relatives today. The swimming ones are plesiosaurs and they gave way to modern day crocodiles. As far as anybody can tell pterosaurs probably ate fish so yeah. They probably won't screw with you if you don't screw with them. I might avoid swimming too just in case. Plesiosaurs probably hunted the same way crocodiles do. So if you're near the water and you think that log has been eyin you the wrong way. I'd probably just take a few big steps back and if it starts casually floating away all of a sudden considered yourself saved. That's all I have to say about those two types for today. +Okay, now when it comes to survival first you need to learn to identify what you're up against. If you have to make a snap judgment about what kind of enormous lizard you're stuck with you can probably make a good guess just by counting how many legs it walks on. If it walks on two legs like a chicken or a turkey assume it wants to eat your spleen. I don't care if it's cute and covered in ruffley feathers or hideous and covered in scales. Two feet equals murder machine and remember these were killers that survived sixty five million years, that's longer than all of your evolutionary ancestors combined! They were the very best at what they did and what they did wasn't pretty. If they've got four legs there is good news. They eat plants. With the exception of Dimetrodon and. . .look if you see something with a huge sail on it's back I just run while the running is good. The bad news I'll get into a little later. Those are your basic right there. Two legs eat meat, four legs eat plants. +Before we start breaking them down though we might as well talk about your general rules that will keep you safe against virtually any dino. These are ground rules but if you know better don't follow them because they are only true ninety percent of the time. The other ten they are almost immediately fatal. So lets cover them real quick. +Dinosaur's vision is based on movement: It's more accurate to say nearly all vertebrate vision is based on motion. Even yours. Think about how many things you don't notice until they start moving even when someone is pointing right at it. Of course that means holding still great is your reasonably concealed. If you choose to stand in the middle of an abandoned freeway hoping the dinosaur won't see you all I'll say is I hope he's just finished eating a goat and a lawyer and thus is more curious about you than hungry cus otherwise you're so boned. +Dinosaur's hate fire. That is true and it might work against some of the smaller ones but many of the larger ones will react the way modern elephants and rhinos do. Stomp it out. Just be aware of what you're getting into before lighting a fire. Also remember that if you're in enemy territory never face your own fire. It kills your night vision. +Dinosaur's are stupid. Well they are stupid the same way squirrels, roaches and dolphins are. Which is to mean smart enough to completely blow through anything you set up thinking they are stupid. +Dinosaur's can't swim. I know this kinda contradicts what I said earlier which is the only reason I'm mentioning it here. First when your trying to avoid getting eaten do you really care if it's a dinosaur or a plesiosaur? I dropped that knowledge on you to expand your mind! Not save your life. Second most dinosaurs had large powerful tails and could likely swim reasonably well. The only thing here is don't think you're safe because you're on a boat, island, opposite riverbank. +I think that covers it all. +First we're going to cover the meat eaters, for obvious reasons. On the off chance that you're reading this while in the middle of a Jurassic Resurrection you want to get to the important part first. So lets talk sizes. The small chicken sized ones are known as compys. I could bore you with the facts or just fill you in on the details. They probably can't hurt you, not any more than a modern day chicken can or will. There are some rumors they might be poisonous though. That's just stuff you learn if you learned all your science from children's cartoons though. The next size up roughly dog sized is the velociraptor (go look it up. Crichton was smart but he either mixed up to species made a mistake or simply realized six foot raptors were more intimidating than dog sized ones. It's possible it's a combination of all three of these things.) They were pack hunters. Of course there is no way of knowing how sophisticated their hunting strategies may have been. We do know they had feathers like birds and could probably glide instead of fly like their ancestors would be able to do. So I'd keep an eye on trees encase they like to hunt in a fashion similar to the modern drop bear of Australia. Finally the two larger than that, the Allosaurus at roughly ten feet at the shoulder and the Tyrannosaurus at just under fifteen. The allosaurs were truly nature's perfect killing machines. Jaws that snap and jaws that trap, claws that rend until the end. If this is the creature your facing the good news is you'll go quick. The bad news your best plan was to have avoided a close encounter. The T-Rex on the other hand has those itty bitty little arms. It couldn't even jerk itself off or scratch it's own chin. Nearly every dinosaur science person thinks that they were probably sluggish scavengers who's primary skill was an outstanding sense of smell comparable to a modern day blood hound. +Okay that covers that for now on to the plant eaters. +The plant eaters are basically broke down into three major types. Long Necks, Three Horns and Spike tails. The Long Necks are fairly famous, long neck, long tail, you couldn't possibly mistake them in the wild. The good news is there little evidence they would intentionally try to harm a human being. However much like elephants are terrified of mice they might panic at the sight of a human. As long as you make absolutely certain that it's seen you and knows you've seen it you should fine but maintain eye contact. The second are the Three Horns. Much like modern day water buffalo these were the pricks of the ancient world and will run you down and squash you into paste for fun. Fortunately like modern bulls they have poor reflexes. All you have to do is dodge until they get their horns stuck in a tree or they knock themselves silly on a wall. Of course if you're out in the open your only hope is to leap onto it's back and ride it until it accepts you as it's master and allows you to ride it. After that it will never again try to harm you. If you screw up though you'll get gored by several ton rhino. Not a good look. The final known plant dinosaur are the spike tails and very little is known about these mysterious creatures. What is known is that if your tail is covered in spikes, you've got a brain the size of a walnut and an extra brain in your butt that you might be a formidable foe. My personal experience with the majestic beasts is that you should simply give it a wide berth. +Okay. We're at the end and since you've listened to me for years I'm going to tell you two things. First you can never be over prepared when it comes to your back up system. There is some Doomsday Castle show floating around that shows you how a bunch of whiny bitches gear up but they are reasonably prepared. Regardless how to build your stronghold is based on your personal resources. Can't build a moat without lots of water and all. +P.S.: Covering yourself in T-Rex Piss won't help. You want the top predator not the King of the Whores. +OOC: There are absolutely no inaccuracies in this document. If you have found one you must have heard crazy things. " +856,Tokyo Transculture Pt. 01,sunsecrets,How To,2020-08-25,2020-08-25,2022-01-04 08:40:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/tokyo-transculture-pt-01,A Summer adventurer is in Tokyo for the LGBTQ shrines.,"['Foursome', 'Gay Male', 'Group', 'Group Sex', 'Interracial', 'Panties', 'Training']",4.0,"During a summer Japan grad course in Tokyo, I had a small (and expensive) student room in the attic of an old house that had the oddest compartments. Also in the attic were a girl, a pretty girl, from Germany, and a Japanese boy from San Francisco -- each with a small room opening onto our shared kitchen/sitting room and giving onto a washroom and a small balcony. The view of the local park and Kanayama Shrine was wonderful but I couldn't escape the sensational views of my pretty fellow lodger. She knew my feelings -- probably better than I did, and she wasn't shy. And the Japanese lodger seemed very nice too. +In sharing the washroom, there was not much modesty: the glass to the shower was frosted but the girl only wrapped a towel around herself when she came out and that had quite a number of shortcomings in terms of what was wrap-able and she was casual in how it was all done up. I wasn't shy either and the boys made a point of wandering around in the heat either nude or nearly nude and she was casual about that too. Toshi was quiet but very warm towards me. +Supposedly we were there to study Japanese religious customs in the Kanayama fertility cult but Suzi Q -- she told me that was her name -- had smiled and said she was doing that the easy way although what that meant wasn't clear and I felt very keen to find out how to do things easily. Then after a week or so, Suzi came back from shopping carrying some packages and was followed by a very special-looking lady. She was Chinese, old --maybe 35 or so, but she had a great figure and not much of it was hidden by her light yellow silk dress. Suzi nodded meaningfully and said this was Jade. She was really graceful with poise and confidence that I rarely see in ladies: I guessed she knew more about men than anyone else in town and she was going to be charming about it. +I wasn't wearing much, just shorts, but the lady was so reassuring and friendly I felt I didn't have to hide or apologize. Suzi said her friend had come over a few years ago to bring knowledge of her Guanyin customs and didn't speak English too well and might want some help so she could help non-Japanese visitors better. As Suzi spoke, the lady bent over slightly to move a cushion on our kitchen bench and then turned and sat delicately, her short hemline easing up her thigh and suggesting she also would be casual about wrapping shortcomings. She looked at me appraisingly and I smiled back. She gestured kindly and I joined her on the little bench. Suzi made us some green tea and then disappeared into her room with the packages. +Jade took my hand and looked at my palm very carefully, gently stroking my middle finger: ""Thick,"" she said, ""and long,"" with a suggestive smile. Then she made a motion for me to flex my bicep muscle and then grinned as she squeezed it: 'You are very strong,' she murmured, with what must have been a Chinese-German accent. That made me feel quite strong indeed. I wondered what compliment I could offer back, when Suzi, transformed, reappeared dressed up as an college girl but in a light dress similar to Jade and when the two of them stood together, Jade was also transformed with a new mood into a very respectable lady. +As they left, they handed me a little parcel as a gift and then floated down the stairs. They were away for a few days. The parcel contained three pairs of panties for boys -- black, white, and pink. I didn't know what to do with them so just put them on my bureau. I heard Toshi come out of his room and open the fridge door so I went out to sit with him. He was smaller than me and a year or two younger but probably a lot more sophisticated. Judging by the clothes he wore, he was quite a liberated boy, besides being slim and handsome. He looked pleased to see me and he looked great in his semi-transparent black nylon shortie house-jacket: I couldn't tell right away if he wore anything underneath it. I grinned and said I liked his coat and he gave a little swish to show it off. Caught up in the moment, I said Suzi and her friend had given me something that might go well with his coat and his eyebrows went up inquiringly. Emboldened, I went back to my room and picked up the panties. They felt very sexy and they had a special stretchy front to support my balls. I decided to be bold and I took down my shorts and slid on the white panties: my cock thickened and began to rise but I went out anyway. Toshi looked very pleased to see me and brightened a lot when I held out the black panties for him. He took them gracefully and opened his little coat. He wasn't wearing anything underneath and his penis was on the way to erection, sticking straight out. He waggled it at me as he slipped on the panties and adjusted them to fit around his balls and put his cock upright in the stretchy material. +""Just right for Inari Okami,"" he grinned. ""You know the fertility rites at Kanayama?"" +""I can guess about the rites from the huge penis statue outside. How does that affect us?"" +""The ladies have gone to get the right costumes -- for us too. We will go to Asakusabashi and join the LGBTQ celebrations. The boys dress up as girls and so on. It is a very ancient custom. We will drink amazaki -- the sperm liquid. Have you tasted sperm before? You can buy it to help you get used to the taste. Maybe Jade only drinks amazaki or real sperm -- several times a day - but I think she must have meals in the shrine as well. She is the temple expert on helping foreign newcomers."" +I knew I had a lot to learn but now I felt more confident that I would find the courage explore amazing new dimensions in my life. +GO ON TO PART 2" +857,A Tongue Lashing: An Essay,rrickgauer,How To,2006-05-16,2006-05-16,2022-01-04 08:25:27,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-tongue-lashing-an-essay,A how-to on cunnilingus.,"['Female Oral Sex', 'How To Eat Pussy', 'Oral Sex Advice', 'Sex Advice']",4.47,"**A Tongue Lashing: An Essay On The Game Of Oral Stimulation** +""Seriously, this was the best oral sex I have ever had performed on me and as you know I have been licked by the best.

""It is ze key to performance. If you don't love ze pussy, the pussy won't love you back."" +I have to agree with the good Doc about having a passion for performing oral sex on a woman. Like anything in life when you perform with a passion you perform to your utmost. Think how you feel when a woman performs oral sex on you and you know she's really into it. There's nothing quite like it. So why wouldn't a woman want to feel the same way? You could make the argument that men are always ready and into it, but that doesn't mean they are prepared. +So how do you get prepared? Study and practice. Bone up on your reading about oral sex. You can find an infinite amount on the internet. Watch porn films where women perform on other women. Who would know better and what better way to learn? And it's a turn on. +Then you have to practice and experiment. What other subject can top cunnilingus for preparation and practice. I can't think of any. +Just think of it as a baseball game. There's no clock running and if you have to go into extra innings it only means you'll have more chances to hit a home run. It's the bottom of the ninth, the score is tied, there are two outs, the bases are loaded and your up to bat...swing for the fences. + **First base: Don't rush** +Starting out can be the most important part of the game. Relaxation is the key here. Getting a woman to relax before performing oral sex on her can make all the difference. Offer a back massage or a foot massage or rub her shoulders. Make this act as sensual as possible. And I don't mean substituting your penis for your hands. If you are really into your woman you'll already know what I mean. Hell, rubbing her fucking calves is a turn on, baby. If you understand that then you are on your way. If not...WORK ON IT This is your gateway to more sex. +On your path to relaxation let's just say you choose a foot massage to get your woman in the mood. I've found the best position is to let your woman sit in a nice, plush chair behind you while sit on the floor in front of her. This way she can drape her legs over your shoulders, you have easy access to both of her feet and she can watch, say, a movie with Johnny Depp in it. As much as you hate watching the little fag if it gets her in the mood...fuck it, watch too. +I use baby oil because it's so much cheaper than some of those massage oils, but if money is of no consequence, then knock yourself out with scented oils. +I start with one foot at a time, draping it over the appropriate shoulder. Cup one hand, fill it with a modest amount of oil, rub both hands together and then lather the foot so your fingers slid easily over the skin and between the toes. The easier your hand and fingers slid the easier it is on your lower arms. Rub the oil into all parts of the foot; in between the toes, the Achilles tendon, the ball of the foot, the heel, in between the ankle bones and into the arch (the most sensitive and erogenous part of the foot). Alternate between both feet for at least twenty minutes or more. Remember, this is not a race. Take your time and don't rush. The more you're into it, the more she'll be into it. + **Second Base: Don't Forget The Breasts** +Once the massaging part of your seduction is over towel her feet dry of oil. Once that is done you turn around and, surprise, you are already between her legs. Now don't get ahead of yourself here. We're still in seduction mode. Move slowly up her torso, kissing her body like she's the hottest woman on earth. And by God, at that point, if she isn't then you need a lobotomy. While you're kissing your way up her body take time to pause and look her over. Look at her like your ten years old and it's Christmas morning and you just opened a present you wanted but never, in a million years, thought you would get. She could be dressed in an old tee, pajama bottoms and white socks, but to you it's Victoria's Secret. +Move close to her face and kiss her with a controlled passion. Kiss her to let her know you are so turned on you can barely control yourself; but this is about her so you are in control because the only thing that matters is pleasing her. Kiss her and in your mind pretend it is her pussy. Give her a taste of what is about to come. +Move back and look her body over once again, moving you hands over her. Not groping, but caressing, working your way down to her breasts. Move her top up over her breasts, feel them, caress them, run your tongue over them paying particular attention to the nipples. Lick around the areola, over the nipple, along the underside of the breast. Lightly rake your teeth over the nipple if she likes that. Cup them in your hands (if she likes them handled a bit more roughly please accommodate), roll the nipples between your fingers, suck it into your mouth and flick the nipple with your tongue. Alternate back and forth. Never underestimate the erogenous nature of the breast and nipple. +Now kiss you way down to the top of her pajama bottoms, maybe taking the material in your teeth and pulling them down. Reach around to the sides and slowly remove them. Take time to stare at her panties; stare at them because you know what's underneath. Cup your hand over the pelvic bone and press against the heat of her warm pussy. Slid your hand down to feel her lips under the material; feel the slight dampness. Move your face closer and run your tongue over the same area. Push your face into her vulva, all the while sliding your fingers under the sides of her panties and slowly inching them down until they are around her knees. Move back, looking at her and slid her panties of the rest of the way. + **Third Base: That Beautiful Pussy** +Now that her beautiful pussy is exposed just take a good long look at it; savor it because in a matter of seconds you will be up close and personal with God's greatest creation. +Remember that no two pussies are alike. They all have their own beauty about them. It's your job to find what's beautiful about the pussy staring you in the face. Maybe it has long lips or tight lips or a hooded clit or an exposed clit. Whatever it is...let her know. +The inside of a woman's thighs are two things: soft and very sensitive. They are a great starting and ending point. There is plenty of area to start getting her in the mood. Lick all around the thighs and every once in awhile skim or breath heavily over the vulva. There is absolutely no rush to get to the clit. Trust me, it will wait. Always keep in mind the sooner you jump in the sooner it will end. If your like me you love satisfying your woman orally and I'm never in a hurry to get it over with. I, literally, could spends hours down there. +After you have paid ample attention to the area in and around her pussy - and remember if your woman is one who doesn't mind her anal area attended to, and you're up for it, give that some well deserved attention - and you're finally ready to lick that pussy just remember variety is the spice of cunnilingus. Don't think of her pussy as just her clit as the main source of orgasm. Sure, that may be the way she comes, but there's so many other things you can do to lead up to that point. You have ten fingers, or eight fingers and two thumbs, so put them to good use. Use them to insert, spread, rub, flick, caress and stroke. Rub your face over her. Some women like clean shaven men, some may like a day old growth of beard. Performing good oral sex on a woman is so much more than just using your tongue. +But let's face it, the tongue is your main weapon. So let's move on to some techniques. Try opening your mouth like you're saying ""Oh"" and then place over the clit. From here you can move your tongue back and forth, up and down. Pretend you're giving her pussy a French kiss. Pretend it's her mouth and her clit is her tongue. Move your tongue over her clit in long strokes. Move back and position your mouth at a different angle, or a different location. Move your mouth over the vaginal opening and push your tongue in as far as you can. Move your mouth down to her perineum and tongue the area between the ass and her lips. The best advice I ever heard about licking a pussy came from a woman - some porn queen I think - she said, ""Lick that pussy like you're licking an ice cream cone."" If you can remember that simple fact you'll do alright. Nice long strokes of your tongue up and down the length. And remember an ice cream cone eventually starts to melt so you have to lick it sideways and quicker strokes and sometimes you have to put your lips over the top and suck it in. +Some women like more friction on the clit and some like less. Some like your tongue stuck inside and some don't. Some like their lips sucked into your mouth, some don't. It's your job to know what works and what doesn't. Nothing is a bigger turn on than hearing a woman moan when you've done something right. Of course don't stick with that for too long. Experiment, she ain't gonna mind. +Eventually get your fingers involved for the finale. Get enough salvia in and around the vulva so when you finally decide to slid a finger in, it will slid in easily. No wasted motion. If your fingers are long enough search for the infamous G-spot. If you find it you'll be a God among men. And women. If your woman likes a finger in her anus then slid one in there too. But if your woman doesn't like a finger or two inside her, then just continue on with your tongue. + **Home Run: Home Run** +By this time you should be able to determine if your woman is ready to climax or not. Of course heavy breathing and moaning, grabbing the sides of your head and thrusting hips would also be key indicators. I think this is the most crucial time. Crucial because it can either make or break the intensity of the orgasm. There is no substitute for repetition here. If you've performed on one woman many times you will already know what works best. If not, as long as you've put in the time prior, the first time can be fantastic in its own way. +So you sense it is time for your woman to come. Some women like the tempo increased, some might just like a light flicking of the tongue over her clit, or maybe she likes your tongue pressed flat against the entire clitoral area, moving your tongue back and forth, moving your fingers in and out until she comes. I love this part other than I know it's coming to an end. +Some women may get sensitive just like men do after they come. Some women are ready for more. If your woman is multi-orgasmic then you may just be getting started. Some women - since you're in a perfect position - like to have you enter them right after the orgasm because it will intensify the aftereffects and could lead to another orgasm from the inside. You should be so lucky. +After the dust has settled let your woman know that was fantastic. No words are needed. Go back to licking and kissing her thighs, grateful for the privilege to be that close to the holiest of holies; grateful she has let you please her in such an intimate way; grateful you're such a team player." +858,Top 10 List for Cockteasing Touches,Sappholovers,How To,2009-04-29,2009-04-29,2022-01-04 08:41:00,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/top-10-list-for-cockteasing-touches,Ways to have him in the palm of your hand.,['Sex Advice'],4.15,"10\. The Handshake, Warm Greeting of an Erect Cock +When a woman greets an erect cock with something of a soft handshake...light, warm, friendly, seductive grip....that lets you know she's delighted to see you--erect--and is ready to lead you (or pull you) into bed with her (see photo). +9\. The Caress and Cupping of the Balls +Upon giving the warm handshake, I love it when a woman cups and lightly caresses or squeezes my balls in the palm of her hand. This is such a beautiful act of intimacy...and encouragement. This light touch of a man's balls conveys such a feeling of admiration for our balls in both a physical and metaphysical sense. Yes, the woman has you in the palm of her hand-- literally--and there's a feel of vulnerability to the male in it (thus the negative valence phrase: a woman has you ""by the balls""). But then there's such a positive valence--such an inflation to a man's sense of his own manliness, making him feel cockstrong--when that touch is done lovingly, with encouragement, with a sense that a woman wants to feel the full power of those balls. +8\. Testing the Tensile Strength, or Warming up to Dive +If you have ever watched Olympic divers preparing for a dive off the lower diving board, you know how to give this next amazing touch to the cock. A steel hard, pumping iron erect cock feels so good. It's such a defiance of gravity. You can feel the testosterone running through it. And I love it when a woman wants to test--and admire--the strength of my cock when it's first revealed what she has done to me. Yes, I love playfulness in the bedroom, so I love it when a woman approaches my cock as her plaything: part slinky, part playdough or silly putty, part erector set. What's best is if she bounces the cock up and down some, checking out its strength, its rebounding capacity, flattering herself as she does this. +7\. The Aesthetic Appreciation of a Man's Sculpture: The light grip of the cock between thumb and middle finger +Once the cock has been warmly greeted and the balls encouraged and the cock bounced around a bit, it's time for the aesthetic appreciation of a man's sculpture. I love it when a woman grasps the middle of my cock, where it's thickest, between a thumb and a middle finger, and just holds the cock in place and admires it with an artist's eye--as if it is the most marvelous sculpture, or the best still life painting of a piece of fruit--she has ever seen in her life. And if a woman grasps me lightly at first...with a very soft touch....I'm Pavlov's dog anticipating beautiful, erotic sex. Yes, there's a time and place for spontaneous combustion sex: a woman taking the cock hard right from the beginning and almost pulling it into her on her first stroke of it. But a woman who touches me softly and admiringly at first gives me the sense that the sex will last for hours....it will be a symphony, not a 3 minute rock and roll song +6\. Skiing the mogul, feeling the tickle, the little up and down, or why San Francisco is sexy +When we were kids, we loved driving from Madison to Chatham, New Jersey as on the way there was what we called the tickle: a little rise up and down in the road when, if driven the right way, gave us the tickle in the stomach. It was a little roller coaster ride. Consider also how much fun it is to ski a little mogul, or to go up and over a little hill. A change in height—going up and down—is sexy, erotic. I think that is in part what makes San Francisco such a beautiful, sexy city (and a city on the plains, in the flatlands more boring) There's are a lot of changes in elevation in San Francisco. The most sensitive part of the cock is the ridge at the base of its head, the corona of the cock. A woman going back and forth over it with her touch drives us crazy. This can be done at various speeds. In the terms for tempo of Italian music (see below), I like calando at first: slower and softer. (Women and men should study the Italian terms for tempo in music, as it provides a richly articulated vocabulary for pacing in erotic play.) I have a natural cock (i.e.,, uncircumcised), so I love it when a woman gently grasps my foreskin between thumb and middle finger and slowly takes her fingers back and forth over the ridge, as if she is skiing a mogul in slow motion. +5\. Circling the Cock Accelarando, or Piu Mosso: More Movement and Faster +I don't need to explain this one. It's the next pace or step after a woman has played softly taking her touches back and forth over the ridge of the cock. The woman circles the cock with her thumb and index finger, as if giving the cock head the A-OK sign, and keeping it firm in her grasp, she picks up the pace and tightens the grasp, locking the cock in her fingers, and then taking it for a more vigorous ride up and down, first just short strokes over the ridge, then longer strokes up and down the full length of the cock. This then can and should morph into the firmer grasp and pumping of the whole cock, the full monty up and down. +4\. From Chile to Los Angeles and Beyond or Further North: The Long Stroke +Consider the base of the cock the lowest part of South America, the southern end of Chile, or near Patagonia and the Straits of Magellan. Then consider the very tip of the cock somewhere above Seattle, in Juneau, Alaska. The part of greatest sensitivity—the corona and frenulum--would then be somewhere between Tijuana/San Diego and San Franciso, or where Los Angeles is located, about 3/4's of the way up the cock from Santiago, Chile. The stroke that delights me so much is the long stroke...a finger tip that goes from Chile to Los Angeles, along the underside length of the cock, from bottom to top, repeated time and again. This stroke is beautiful to feel after the cock has been jazzed up by the touching and stroking of #'s 5 and 6. The erotic depends on delay, anticipation, longing...and here is the time and the way to prolong the erotic play, letting a jazzed up cock on the verge of coming subside after the stroking of 5 & 6, and then the long, slow stroke that just expresses joy and delight in the length of the cock. The stroking of the cock this way can begin to build up the hum, taking the man back to the verge of coming. Better yet, it can start the cock just twitching uncontrollably, reacting in ways the man has no conscious control over. I love it when a woman knows how to make a cock dance this way, the music taking over so the cock is just dancing and vibrating on its own. +3\. The Prelude to the Coup de Grace: The Exploration Down Under, the Taking of the Ridge through +Subterfuge +When a cock is on the verge of coming, when it has been hummed up and taken with rubata strokes, or with every tempo listed below, another blissful way to drive a man crazy is to focus again on the ridge, the corona, but this time taking it with subterfuge: a fingertip just lightly exploring, discovering the underside of this ridge, circling the globe, sailing around underneath the ridge, over and over. +2\. Playing the Frenulum as a Violin +The little string of skin on the underside of the cock—the frenulum—is by far the most sensitive part on my cock. Alas, men who are not natural, who are cut or circumcised, do not have this fold of skin in the same way as a natural cock, and what a loss, what a diminishment, what an argument against circumcision. But when my cock has become the most sensitive, when my whole body feels taut, stretched between the poles of myself, lusting to come, needing to spurt and splurge and release, then I absolutely love it when this string is played beautifully by a diva violinist: the woman just lightly stroking in one direction, repeatedly, this little string, this fold, until it feels like the cock could explode into orgasm with the touch of a feather against this spot, or just touched by a hot breath, or the sound waves of a whisper. +1\. The Coup de Grace after the Coup de Grace: Massaging the Cock with its own Cum +To take the man over the top, with the most blissful touches of all, combine the strokes and touches: I love it particularly when there's a combination of #9 and #5 and #9 and #2. But then there is the coup de grace after the coup de grace: when a woman massages a man's cock, particularly the head, with his own cum. The first time I had this done to me came the first time I was in bed with a woman with whom I had a 5 month correspondence before meeting her. She was the second woman I had sex with after going the least 8 years of a 21 year marriage almost sexless. The four month long correspondence gave us a chance to be rather explicit about the ways we loved to be taken. +We finally met in the Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas for a three nights and four days together. Within an hour of meeting, we on our hotel bed, with us beginning to enact everything we had fantasized about for ages. It seems we gave each other a thousand kisses, then a hundred more, than another thousand before our clothes started to come off. She asked me to strip for her, which I did, and then she slowly stripped for me. She then departed from any script we had imagined. She asked me to play with myself, and as I did so, she began playing with herself as well. I brought myself to the verge, kept myself there for a time, and then she asked me to let her see me come up close and personal. She curled up close, and then as I started coming, she took hold of men and began collecting all my cum juices in her hands. When I had finished coming, she began massaging my cock in its juices, not letting up but squeezing me more forcefully. The cock at this point is so sensitive that this action is excruciating, like tickling but better. My instinct was to pull away but she followed after me, keeping me in her grasp, rendering me ridiculous, like silly putty in her hands, at her mercy. It extended the intensity of the orgasm, adding a new feel I had never felt before, a missile shot off and then retro-rockets fired. Then, later that evening, bless her heart, she taught me how to make her squirt. +* Italian terms for tempo in music, to be applied to +Accelerando — speeding up +Allargando — growing broader; decreasing tempo, usually near the end of a piece +Calando - going slower (and usually also softer) +Meno mosso — less movement or slower +Mosso — movement, more lively, or quicker, much like più mosso, but not as extreme +Più mosso — more movement or faster +Precipitando - hurrying, going faster/forward +Rallentando — gradual slowing down +Ritardando — immediate slowing down +Ritenuto — slightly slower; temporarily holding back. +Rubato — free adjustment of tempo for expressive purposes +Stretto — rushing ahead; temporarily speeding up +Stringendo — pressing on faster" +859,Toys 4 Us: Women Only!,sexygodess06,How To,2006-06-01,2006-06-01,2022-01-04 08:41:01,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/toys-4-us-women-only,Adult toys can help women find complete pleasure.,"['Advice For Women', 'Anal Masturbation', 'Female Masturbation', 'Self- Help', 'Sex Advice', 'Sex Toys']",4.07,"Most women (statistics say 80%) do not have orgasms during penetration. So, why don't they? What is the secret? Men love sex whenever and wherever they can have it, but, what is the incentive for a woman for a lot of women if not to have a really great orgasm. We're lucky, and with the right tools and timing, can have many more orgasms than a man, although ours as impacting I think. Here are a couple of my favorite tricks for treats! +Now, you young women may have it better figured out. From what I understand, dads are even taking their girls to the toy store for their birthday parties (not sure if that is quite ethical but in any case maybe educational). +I remember my friends in college taking human sexuality. I was too embarrassed to take a course like that. I wasn't having intercourse yet being a good Catholic and all. I was waiting for love and marriage to go all the way. +Well, of course that only lasted to my 21st birthday. Yet, no orgasm during sex, but I think a couple of clitoral orgasms after that during the relationship. So, what is sex all about, I wondered? +The hornier I felt, I began to explore my body. Then I began buying toys. Wow, they worked. Well, I won't admit my age but it took many more years to find the really great toys which men introduced me to. The one thing I did figure out with the regular 6-inch dildoe type of toy was that I could give myself a penetrating orgasm, many orgasms and/or hit the g-spot. I never could quite understand why most men couldn't very often find the g-spot or give me the same kind of orgasm. Even with my live-in boyfriend for nine years, I just got bored with sex and felt it was more of a duty to get through the week. +Well, after one break-up, I started dating on the Internet. Dated quite a bit actually and was a bit disappointed that during a sexually prowess time in my life that men still hadn't progressed a whole lot in the orgasm department, except for a few. +I started dating on the Internet about 5-6 years ago after I met a friend in Australia who would fly to the mid-west to meet guys. She did it every year or not and referred to her beaus as her 'invisible friends.' I needed to get out, so I gave it a try. I hadn't dated as much since my twenties and was having a lot of fun. +The first guy I met up with asked me to dinner and suggested a hotel over the phone. Still at a trusting point in my life, I felt I could really get on with this guy. So, when he said his son had an accident with his car, and asked me to meet him at a hotel, I decided I would although a little reluctant for this clandestine meeting. He mentioned he has a present for me but wouldn't tell me what it was. +When I arrived at the hotel, he wanted me to meet him at his hotel room. I asked him to meet me in the lobby instead, in case I needed to make a quick run! However, I was pleasantly surprised and very pleased! He was very handsome with salt and pepper hair and a nice physique. It had been about two years since I had broken up with my boyfriend and I was very, very horny. +We started making love immediately after we entered his room. The lovemaking was fantastic! I won't go into details because if you're reading this story, you already know how. After we made love the first time, he brought out his present he had for me. His friend had taken him to the toy shop to get one like he used on his girlfriend. It's called a 'cyber flicker' or power mini- massager which is a toy somewhat like a bullet but made of a material that feels like a natural cock. What I love about it is the little flicker tail on the end that titillates and teases the clitoris. It can be found at some toy stores but definitely online.  +His friend said he had given his girlfriend 19 orgasms with this little toy. I had never had THAT many orgasms, many ten or so with my toys but I was game. My partner was a bit competitive and liked chance, so he was determined to beat his friends 19 orgasms. Well, to make a long story short, he stopped counting after I had over 20 orgasms. +This little toy was great for multiple orgasms, too, which I had never had. After an exhausting evening of sex and orgasms, the next morning my friend was determined to give me multiple orgasms and since I have given them to myself. He used the cyber flicker, with his finger in my butt, and kept giving me orgasms one after the other. I kept asking him to stop and he said ""sweetheart"" just be still. It was difficult to have one orgasm after the next being so sensitive after just one, so you can imagine how I was feeling. But, then after about six or seven continuous orgasms, I had a multiple orgasm. It was sensational. +So, back to the butt business - I had tried anal sex once and it was like trying to fit a baseball into a pinhole. Ouch! So, I wasn't ever particularly interested in trying it again. But, a finger up the butt felt pretty good and very sensual. Call me old-fashioned or slow, but so are the guys I guess of my generation I guess. I always thought anal sex was a non-heterosexual act. Actually still never have had anal sex but now I want to try and this is how I'm getting ready.  +I started dating this one fellow recently and sex has been fantastic. The first time we had sex, he aroused me sensually with a finger up my butt. It had been awhile since I had fooled around and figured this was the man to experiment with. Sex was fantastic but I was still getting used to him the first couple of times so my body wasn't ultimately relaxed. +Our second date, knowing I like toys for titling; he brought over his own bag of tricks. We had been seducing each other online and loving every minute of it when we couldn't be together. WOW! A man with a set of his own toys ... a little erotic and a little bewildering! First, we tried the g-spot toy. It didn't do much for me. Then we tried my little cyber flicker. We had fun with that. Then he showed me his butt plug and explained to me that sensation in the anus excites the nerves in a different area that ignites orgasms. +After having sex three times, we tried it doggy style. Unbeknownst to me, after first fingering my butt hole nicely, he inserted this butt plug. I was so excited and horny. Then he inserted his cock in my vagina and he would stop and then start again, while holding an erection and fucking me amazingly. Then he said to me, try your little toy. I didn't know if I could reach, but I did and immediately had a great orgasm. I was so wet and weak as he kept fucking me. He kept sliding the butt plug in and out. I could barely stand the excitement. I started spasming and I guess squeezing his cock. I had the first orgasm with a man's cock fucking me and it was the best orgasm I've ever had. +I pleaded with him to pull out because I couldn't stand it anymore. I don't know if I had an anal orgasm, a vaginal orgasm or maybe both. I collapsed on the bed for a long time as he finished his self off. Then he said ""relax"" as he came with control down my butt with his hot cum some seeping in. I was on fire again! +He collapsed on the bed and we were finished off literally. +""Oh, my God,"" I told him later. That was the best orgasm I've ever had. Next time, he said, I'll try the real thing! +I can't wait! Sex has never been so good. It gets better and better. Remember when we were kids and couldn't ever picture our parents having sex. Well, for the lucky ones, toys enhance the experience to no end. There are so many great toys out there. Have fun and explore.

I have been the Domme to my bi submissive slave husband for 15 years. We have been married for 20 years, are in our early 50's, and it was obviously a journey to get where we are and a very good one at that. Our love is stronger today than it has ever been, his level of responding to my Dominant nature and his submissive yearnings are the best they have ever been, we walk the same path as a D/s couple, and we both feel that FemDom relationships are beautiful in their natural ability to provoke the best in sexual and romantic caring and love. I have a current stable of 5 other bi submissives besides my husband that we frequently play with and our sexual activity level as a couple with just one another is perhaps a dozen to 15 times a month (includes milking sessions) with perhaps 2 to 4 play sessions with other slaves added as schedule permits. +I will not spend countless pages describing the inception, growth, morphing, or otherwise providing a history of our D/s relationship. Since the beginning I understood that my slave needed a deeper and more profound sexual experience than I could provide for him within the confines of a conventional relationship. I then knew that I also needed more. It was actually the internet which provoked his and then my own interest in FemDom. I used the history files on our computer to understand his leanings, his desires, and his proclivity to submit to women and know that he also had bisexual desires and previous experiences before we were married. Suffice it to say that I quietly exploited that knowledge to begin and then maintain our amazing D/s experience. +The subject of this is obviously bringing new bi slaves into the picture and having them become comfortable with each other, much like pets that we own. In order to understand how I accomplish this with my slave then it must be understood where he is in training within our life and relationship. My focus has always been one of having complete control in the bedroom and then our being more or less equals to the rest of the world. I allow him little or no choices beyond the guidelines we had originally set up some years ago and we have largely lived to those over the many years of playing inside the D/s world. The wonderful thing has always been that I know and understand his triggers, his fetishes, his limits, and his needs. They are not more important than my own and never will be however, knowledge is power and I have faithfully utilized what I know my slaves' needs and desires are to complement my own strong needs. +To the nitty gritty then. My Dominance over my husband is based on generally applied fetishes for almost all bi submissive males. In his case it has been a steady diet of restraint use, discipline, strap on use, feminization, orgasm denial, milking, humiliation, cuckolding, and cum eating. No one area is more important than another per se but the integration of other bi submissive males into our play has to take into account what we already like and are comfortable with and with that the requirement that the bi sub male also has most or all of these leanings and I can use these comfortably in any play scenario. We have found that younger men and ""bi curious"" men are not so agreeable play partners but that is obviously a person to person variation. Ultimately, when we invite bi sub males to our play (from a variety of internet sites) then they have already been well researched to determine their suitability. We have rarely been wrong. +My use of the various fetishes is more or less based on my sexual appetite and his needs at the time. I use restraints in about 25% of our sessions and enjoy the reinforcement that it provides in that he is a slave first and foremost. I can employ any number of other disciplinary activities (spanking, crop, face slapping, hair pulling) while he is restrained but since he has been in submission for so long and is so obedient I have found that we use this less as he is completely compliant without restraints. I find it to be more good theater at this point and like to use it when we are with a trusted bi male play friend on occasion to frustrate him. +Discipline is something I also rarely have to employ beyond what is required due to his completely submissive and compliant nature after many years of training. I almost always spank or otherwise crop him during a session but it is more to enhance my own sexual excitement rather than to actually make him comply with an order or direction. His needs being a consideration, he may ask me while outside the bedroom for some enhanced discipline and if he needs that then I consider his request and administer it if the situation is right. I again do employ discipline more while in the company of other bi slaves so that their training example initially is the excellent one provided by my very well trained husband. +My use of a strap on device on him varies. Some months he will bottom for me on a handful of occasions and some months maybe once. I used to let him make excuses to not be fucked by me but that is a rare exception in these past years. Most times I will let him know in advance so he can prepare and sometimes I don't quite care if he is prepared. I am more focused on him being able to take me in various positions at this point in our life and also do demand that he train his pussy for larger sized dildos (and cocks) for the future. His bisexual bottom experiences have increased over the past three years and he has now submitted his pussy for fucking four of my other submissive playmates on a number of occasions. They all vary in cock size and the largest is 7 inches and coincidentally the same size as my largest strap on cock that I use on him. I many times have him get into bed with me naked at night and we both read while he has a butt plug or dildo in for a predetermined amount of time. He is ALWAYS naked in our bedroom and if we don't have family home then naked around the house. This has been an important step in my being able to push him into somewhat constant sub space even if he does not know it himself. I cannot stress how important it is to get slaves used to being naked in the presence of the Mistress (or others as needed) and when we play with other slaves, all are naked immediately and many times I stay clothed until I am ready to change or be naked with the submissive(s). I have done sessions where I never took my clothes off. Again, he is always the model of what I expect from other bi slaves we choose to play with and he consistently illustrates good bottoming when we are with other playmates. +His feminization is important to me as he wants to be feminized so badly on occasion that I purposely limit that aspect. That being said, I do enjoy buying him panties and stockings for our play sessions and I am inclined to see how far I can take him in this arena. I usually hold his feminization for play with our more experienced bi subs. This may end up being the final frontier of how nasty our play can be as we get older and remains to be seen but I have had him sleep with me all night in panties and stockings and it has led him to be very attentive, very erect several times during the night, and led me to be very sexually satisfied by morning. +Orgasm denial is needed in any male slave, bi or not. I employ this technique once or twice a month and occasionally in play with other subs. It has a wonderful effect on his adoration and compliance for his Mistress but long term chastity is not one of my desires for what we do. I have considered chastity because I know he has an interest in it but feel that it is limited to his masturbatory fantasies rather than any real time play because of the time we would miss interacting sexually. In any case, intermittent orgasm denial for a slave is an absolute necessity even if the frequency is only a few times a year. The slave needs to understand that their orgasm is controlled by the Mistress and that includes any permission to masturbate and/or even ejaculate without Mistress being present. +Milking is an important tool for a Mistress for various reasons. The pace of life is such that not even the most dedicated D/s couple can interact as much as they would like to. Children, careers, social events and chores are all time consumers. When we have challenges that involve time I will typically have him lick my ass as I masturbate with a dildo. I enjoy the quick orgasm I get, it keeps him in sub space, and I can generally branch out into denial of his orgasm (although rarely) or milking as a finale before we can each get some sleep. I enjoy milking him for several reasons. It is very enjoyable for me to edge him over and over again. I enjoy training him while I milk him through humiliating talk and verbal encouragement. I can train him on being compliant while unrestrained. Lastly, I can enjoy the cum eating on his part as a result of my milking him. His eating cum after he ejaculates is a very important part of my dominance over him and his cum eating is integral to his submissive nature including interaction with other bi slaves we play with. More to follow on this. +Humiliation forms the boundaries for much of any session we start together as just a couple interacting or role play opportunities that we have with other bi slaves we have chosen. Many bi subs express a desire for humiliation but cannot tolerate it in the reality of a scene or play experience. Trust is a major issue in that regard and my slave has trust in me that has no bounds and I trust him to be able to actually tell me if something is not quite right. Humiliation can be verbal and I use many of the trigger words that I know he enjoys during any playtime we have. I liberally use the words cock sucker, pussy, sissy, bitch, ass licker, cum eater, and others as the occasion dictates. We sometimes do cuckold play and I call him either cuck slut or cum cleaner or boy on those occasions along with the others as previously mentioned. Humiliation can be non verbal also when I sometimes go to great pains to either disregard or ignore him while I enjoy myself either alone or with another bi slave. Humiliation may also take the form of displaying him to others or serving others in person or via web cam. I consider humiliation to be fun as a Mistress because it allows me to be super creative and try to push the buttons of my slave depending on his needs or state of arousal. +Cuckolding. Many that read this or even those that have played with or seen us play as a couple would consider our relationship to be one that is cuckold in nature. It is not that they are wrong, it is simply a stretch to label us or define us by cuckolding behaviors when we as a FemDom couple are so much more. My husband is not a slave such that I ever go out and have sex or relationships with anyone that is not him EXCEPT in front of him. We both agree on partners and they are always bi male slaves with the exception of a few couples we have played with. He has been ""the Bull"" on some occasions also so that should illuminate the situation such that it is obvious that we are not a stereotypical cuckold couple. I would say that we play cuckold scenarios a few times a year at most, we enjoy them immensely, but they do not describe who we are. From a Mistress standpoint, cuckolding is hugely effective in having my husband understand how much other men really enjoy my body and by the same token how much I can love and enjoy different cocks in front of my slave. It is a fun role play experience, I use the premise during verbal humiliation, milking, strap on, and other scenarios and suffice it to say that I will almost always use cuckolding as a tool to both control my slave and to train others. I have actually trained cuckolds and enjoy it but other than that it is just another fun role play exercise for forwarding our larger FemDom relationship. +Cum eating, that is my husband eating his own cum was what got us to be a FemDom couple. His computer was filled with such images of creampies, he always loved eating my pussy for hours after he fucked me, and his previous bi experiences had him enjoying the simple act between two bi men. I started making him eat cum and he expounded on all of his nasty desires and I just took it from there. Making him and forcing him to eat his own load is the responsibility of myself as his Mistress. Some nights he is eager but many nights he is not and he needs guidance and direction. If I allow him to fuck me then I almost always straddle his face so he can clean me or pull him by the hair to perform the work as I lay on my back and direct his hungry mouth. If I let him masturbate over me then I usually have him shoot it on my stomach or ass so he can clean me and I humiliate him during the entire time and sometimes also coo and encourage him like a pet. I have had him shoot his cum into cups, saucers, plates, my underwear, on my feet, on food, on other men's erect or flaccid penises etc. The imagination is your only boundary with this activity. Since he is always the gold standard as a bi slave with other slaves present it is a normal and accepted activity for him to clean other slaves after they have ejaculated during a session. He cleans up any messy loads willingly and most often off of my body but it varies. I have only one current slave that I will permit to cum in me so his access to actual creampie cleanups is limited to those play sessions. Ultimately, clean up of himself as well as others is a normal standard for play and he is a wonderful role model for training other slaves. +After having covered the typical activities that my slave and I enjoy, it is my goal to provide a simple outline or guide for training and integrating new bi males into the fold. I have 5 slaves currently and they range in time spent with us from one that is 6 months in and doing fairly well with being trained and one that has been playing with us as a couple for over 10 years! All of them are in their 40's and 50's, all had measurable bi experiences and were comfortable with bi play, and all were either practicing or strongly desiring submissive play in their real lives. In the absence of a case study or something like that, these are the types of men we chose to play with and my slaves job is to constantly be seeking qualified bi males that seek to serve a Mistress. +After deciding to meet for play, choose a neutral location such as a hotel until you feel completely comfortable. This limits the amount of noise you might make and pushes all to play somewhat discreetly during the session but it also is useful for training them on self control. Remember the first rule. Your slave should be naked and answer the door and the candidate slave should be naked within seconds of entering and that should be impressed upon them before the session. I am always clothed in Domme attire at the beginning of a session with a new slave but have been in less casual attire on occasion with longer time play partners. +Both slaves should be placed in a position for inspection and for me that typically means both slaves flat on their stomachs on the bed where I place blindfolds on for an initial foray into limited sensory deprivation. Why their stomachs, you might ask? This position leaves them vulnerable. It allows me access to their bottoms for light spanking or cropping. I generally pull their cocks and balls back under them and through their legs to expose them to me for inspection, fondling, edging, or light CBT if the mood is there for me. This is when I get a real sense of what equipment the new bi slave has and what I might be using later in the session for my own pleasure. I also may use the head of a dildo or an anal device to very lightly probe (no penetration) their pussy area. This part of any play might last from 15 minutes to a half hour depending on my mood at the time. There is a palpable sense of excitement on both males during this time and you may find them semi erect to nearly bursting and fully erect. Some of this is because of the light touching and verbal encouragement from me and there is also the knowledge that when they are not being touched themselves, that I am actively working on the slave that laying inches from them. Never underestimate the capacity for a bi male submissive to be thinking about the nearly erect cock that is so close but yet so far. I hardly ever let my body except my hands touch their bodies during this time. +Since my slave has done this exercise of familiarization on many occasions, he generally understands the activity and its nuances. The next step is to arrange the slaves on their sides, facing each other, skin touching, hands behind their backs (restraints are typically a no no for a first session), with my owned slave's mouth at the new slaves chest level. I will administer slightly harder spankings and croppings now to increase the amount pain versus pleasure and to ensure that their body contact is maintained. Proximity exercises like this increase sexual tension and I have seen more than a few tremble like a leaf during it and I maintain their sighing and moaning etc at a minimum level for obvious training reasons. I also use my crop and hand to administer discipline as needed for either one of them writhing to push or rub their cocks on one another. I will give a good hard smack sometimes at this point to ensure their compliance. +When I feel it is time I will instruct my owned slave to lick and suck the nipples of the new slave. This and subsequent oral events that I prescribe for getting them to ""like"" each other are wonderful for training BUT I have had more than a handful of new slaves ejaculate prematurely during this period. I will typically end the session at this point and reassure them. It does not mean that they will or should be dismissed as a potential slave for my fold and it means I need to be more creative and aware for future meetings and explain that to them. I hope that part helps. At this point it should be obvious that I will use the sensory deprivation, the discipline, the skin contact, and arousal to walk the two slaves through orally pleasing each other in various ways left open to only the imagination of the Mistress. My slave is an oral expert due to my training and I sometimes curtail his work on the new slave and let the new slave explore my slave orally a bit longer. This dynamic seems to work best but each slave experience is different even with the same slaves on a different day. Mistress should be the ultimate judge. +Once the two slaves are smitten with each other I will generally remove the masks and have my slave assume various positions on the bed and use him in a manner that is consistent with acts that I will expect the prospective slave to engage in for the future. Strap on play, forced oral, queening, discipline, verbal humiliation etc are all at the Mistress discretion and it is important to constantly communicate with each slave so that expectations are clear. I usually find that this is a lovely time to go ""good cop"" with the new slave and let him start touching me and orally exploring his Mistress. Control his access to your body by being firm and direct, ensure that he continues to be ""forced"" to explore the other slave being used by Mistress also, and start to plant the seed that he may be close to an actual sexual interaction with Mistress. +I cannot tell any one Mistress what is right for any play AFTER you have gotten the two new slaves to this point. My experience has been that it is best for me and my slave to work into the activity where he works as a ""fluffer"" of sorts after having been fucked and used by me and that he will assume his usual role of sexual slave and servant to me. The wonderful part for me personally is that I am so worked up by this point myself that I actually typically require a good fucking and the new slave as well as myself benefit from my needs. I may have my slave get our new slave really erect and then ritualistically rub his head against my wet pussy until I allow him to enter. I may place the new slave in a chair and sit atop him. It is at best freestyle and sometimes the best laid (pun intended) plans go out the window. It is vital that the new slave understand that his role for future play may very well be that of my wonderful owned slave and that he needs to pay attention even while fucking my pussy. My slave will either be kissing my mouth, my or the other slaves nipples, or be directed to lavish attention on my ass, the new slaves balls, or any place I direct where we are joined during the period we are fucking. My slave could also be banished to a corner of the room to watch me and told to either masturbate OR not masturbate at all depending on the scenario and my mood. In any event, the culmination of all the activity leading to the two slaves getting to know each other is almost always the satisfaction of my sexual needs, my slaves needs as I see them for that day, and a huge orgasm for the new slave with the resulting sticky ending. +The last part of this is the end result of my sexual interaction with the new slave is satisfied Mistress, a flaccid cock on the new slave after ejaculating (typically on me), and a needy owned slave dying to do something, anything. To keep things ""even"" and my new slave in his place, I like to gesture for my slave to come over for clean up duties and then put my newly satisfied slave to the test. While my slave obediently cleans the new slaves cock and then moves on to the puddles of semen on my stomach, chest, and usually pussy, I will forcefully direct the new slave to worked on my slaves cock while he cleans me. This is a valid barometer for that slaves willingness to serve as he is now satiated sexually, typically not erect (but not always, and is keenly aware that my slave has a scrotum full of cum that he really wants to shoot. I am very verbal with both of them at this point and my slave is so well trained he can almost cum on my command most times. Having him cum on me is not out of the norm but sometimes I will add a twist and him cum on a plate or depending on what we know the new slaves proclivity for bi play and cum eating I will even have my slave erupt in the new slaves mouth for a spectacular ending. I find that cumming on me is best for a first session because it reinforces the two slaves working as a team to keep me clean and demonstrate their high levels of submission to their Mistress. I do not do much more during the period after the session than reinforce the lessons learned, reassure both of the good job they have done, and lay down expectations (toys, clothes, behavior etc) for future meetings. If time permits it is generally acceptable to continue play if the slaves are physically able to perform again but for a first session it is advisable to let sleeping dogs lie and let the new slave reflect on his experience and not gain too much access to me sexually. +I hope this helped at least foster an idea of what initial interaction with new slaves can look like. The basic premise is to leverage the session off of what you have trained your slave to be to you as his Mistress, project those fetishes and behaviors onto the new slave, and start his training in a manner that lends itself toward the ultimate goal of satisfying the Mistress. Unlike pro Domme's, you will never hear a sexually imaginative lifestyle Mistress complain that she has ""too many cocks"". Gathering real bi submissives for bolstering a slave stable is a good practice because not everyone auditioned will work out for various reasons, some will go on their merry way due to their own life changes, and keeping it fresh with new people enhances scenes and playtimes immensely. Never settle though. Websites like Alt.com, CollarMe.com, and AFF are valid hunting grounds but cluttered with straight men posing as bisexuals. Our best luck has been with bisexualplayground.com and 3 of my 5 current slaves are men we met from there. Not an endorsement at all and as I stated, be very discriminating and discerning with choosing slaves and you will all be happier (and safer!) for the work done with ensuring their compatibility with you and your owned slave. Good luck." +861,Training Games,Joseki Ko,How To,2004-06-17,2004-06-17,2022-01-04 08:41:03,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/training-games,Slave training for fun and profit.,"['Drive Edge', 'Fun Begins', 'Slave', 'Slave Cum', 'Trigger Word']",4.02,"One of the things I've talked about most with other masters, is training and games. Some seem to believe training to be a serious business and others aren't really sure how to go about it. My personal approach is to use games. I've always figured that if I'm not having a good time I should be doing something else. This philosophy has taken over my life, I work this way, play this way and treat my slave this way. +My favorite game is the penny game. This can be used for training a slave to stay in any position. I will list my favorite position here. It's a modified Nadu. +You need to find a linoleum or tile floor. This doesn't work on carpet. Your slave kneels before you knees spread, hands behind the back fingertips and thumbs touching. Between the finger tips and thumb tips you place pennies. Now the fun begins. Start tickling or playing with your slave. I enjoy both at different times. For now lets go with sexual stimulation. This helps teach your slave to remain in position when excited. As your slave gets more and excited they will lose concentration. When this happens one or more of the pennies will drop. You'll both be surprised at how loud this is. +Now first and foremost stop stimulating your slave. Let them stew in their own juices. Now the type of punishment is your choice. Not all punishments are effective with every slave. Some like pain and will enjoy the spanking, some love being exposed and cornered etc. Pick the type of punishment you wish to inflict and inflict it. +Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. So as soon as your slave is done with the punishment repeat the game. You may play this as often as you like. I've always found it to be a fun game and my slave loves the attention. +Teaching your slave to cum on command is also a highlight not to be missed. You can accomplish this by installing what is called a trigger word or trigger. Important safety tip. If you do this right it is possible that your slave will never again be able to cum without permission. So make sure that this is what you want to accomplish. Some Gorean Masters want their slaves to come as much and as often as possible. If this is you, don't train your slave to use a trigger. +Tie your slave on the bed face down and spread eagle. Lay a rattan cane across her arms or whatever you intend to discipline her with. Tell her to cum when you say the word NOW, or whatever word you choose. Tell your slave that if they don't cum when you say now they will receive twenty stripes with that cane. If they come before I say the word NOW they will also be given twenty stripes with the cane. Make sure they understand this. +When you are ready start running your hands over her. I prefer to use my hands because I can stimulate more than just her tit's and clit. I know us guy's have one basic spot. Blow us and we cum. On a woman her entire body can be an erotic zone. So run your hands up and down the full length of her. Take note where she moans and return to that spot. Now the fun begins try to drive her to the very edge of cumming. When you think she can't take any more stop and go drink a soda eat something just take a break and let her calm down. Then go back and repeat the process, again drive her to the edge but don't let her cum. Have another soda and start over. This time drive her to the same point. You should be good at finding it by now. Line your fingers up on her clit and yell your trigger word as your fingers enter her. Make sure she cums. +Ok now this process should be repeated every day and will probably take up to a month or more to set. Remember the experts say it takes 30 days to make a behavior habit and just three days to break it. So expect to be at this awhile. When your done you will be able to say your trigger word and she will cum on the spot. (Highly entertaining at parties) +I love using the trigger word in front of some of our vanilla friends. The looks I get from her as she cums quietly so they don't know are very enjoyable. Don't over use the trigger but do enjoy it." +862,Trouble Deepthroating?,Goldeniangel,How To,2005-02-13,2005-02-13,2022-01-04 08:41:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/trouble-deepthroating,Anyone can deepthroat - here's how.,"['Deep Throat', 'Favorite Things', 'Gag', 'Gag Reflex', 'Good Head', 'Make Gag', 'Relaxed Throat', 'Throat']",4.57,"Deep throating is something that is often mentioned in erotic stories, and often seen in pornos and on the internet, but most girls (and guys) find it rather difficult to do. Part of it is a sensitive gag reflex, part of it is the fear (and the reality) of not being able to breath with a dick shoved down your throat. However, it is possible, and although I'm not a guy (Not since I last checked anyway) I've been informed by my very male fiancé that it's one of his favorite things during sex (admittedly, on a rather long list of ""favorite"" things). +The first thing you can do is practice, not necessarily with a banana (although I know that some people do use that successfully, I don't really think it's actually necessary), you can practice just with your finger or a toothbrush. Just every time you brush your teeth, at the very end brush your tongue as far back as you can get it, until your gag reflex starts screaming at you. The constant pushing on it will actually make your gag reflex less sensitive, and allow you to get objects further and further back into your throat. A good reason to use your finger is that most guys are not as long or as hard as a toothbrush is, and with your finger you can get a good general idea of where the most sensitive spots in your throat are. Knowing the ""danger"" zones in your own mouth is a HUGE bonus when it comes to attempting to swallow a dick. +Anther pointer is to do just that, swallow while sucking, making the swallowing movement with your throat and tongue. Your gag reflex tends to relax when you swallow, allowing you to move the tip of the dick past it, for some reason the gag reflex doesn't seem to have a problem with a dick laying under it, just poking into it. However, eventually you will need to pull off and repeat this procedure so that you can breathe. Breathing is important, if you aren't getting enough air you're actually more likely to gag or actually throw-up, also if you're trying to swallow the dick and gasping for breath at the same time because you haven't gotten enough air, chances are you're going to swallow air, which is again, going to upset your stomach and make you gag or throw up. One which isn't very pleasant for you and one which isn't very pleasant for you or your partner. +Work up to. Start by slowly sliding down as far as you can, and then pull back as soon as you start to feel nauseous/sick. Do it again. And again, try to push yourself a little farther each time (without actually making yourself sick.) TAKE AS MUCH TIME AS YOU NEED IN BETWEEN. Don't go down while you're still feeling nauseous, take a few moments, relax, and then go again. Working up to it allows you to build confidence in your abilities to go farther and farther. Half of this is a mind thing, if you think you can do it, you're a lot more likely to be able to. If you think it's impossible, well, try the next paragraph and then pay close attention to the last one. +Try different positions. The first time I managed to deep throat my boyfriend we were in a 69 position; it that position the throat is curved almost exactly like a vagina and the point of the penis doesn't impact the gag reflex as much. One way to do this is to be on the bottom of the 69 and let your partner lower himself (somewhat quickly although carefully) into your mouth. Make sure your relaxed when he does this, if your throat is tense and closed up then it's not going to work. +Most importantly, MAKE SURE YOU TRUST YOUR PARTNER. Having the person attached to the dick be positioned on top in this kind of situation can be dangerous to the person on the bottom, because the person on top goes 'Oh god, this is wonderful... I want to stay like this forever' and forgets that you're running out of air because they're blocking your throat. If this does happen to you, a short sharp slap on the ass usually gets their attention the fastest. Another position to try is on your back on a bed with your head hanging off and your partner standing in front of your face and thrusting forward, this gives you a little bit more control since you can use your hands on their hips to guide their movements. Again though, you still must have a relaxed throat, these positions are much easier to deep throat in than the convention ""on your knees"" in front of the guy pose, but a closed throat will kill everything. +If your gag reflex is just too sensitive or your man just too big (or at an inconvenient length where he can't help but poke your gag reflex every time), Cheat. There is this absolutely wonderful gel on the market called ""Good Head"". There are also other gels and ""helpers"", and most of them probably work but I haven't actually tried them. ""Good Head"" I can vouch for. I got it at a Slumber Party that I attended, one of my friends and I spent about 45 minutes shoving half our hands down our throats every time we checked to see if it was still working. All it requires is a very small dollop, just enough to cover the tip of your index finger, put on your tongue and then swallow. +That's it, and immediately your gag reflex WILL BE GONE for quite a period of time. Because I tend to get impatient with my natural abilities, I have a rather large bottle of Cinnamon flavored Good Head that I keep with me when I feel like treating my guy to something special, rather than making him wait while I work up to swallowing the whole nine yards. The best part about it is that it doesn't have an aftertaste and it tastes fairly good (at least the Cinnamon does, I haven't tried other flavors). Actually, that's not the best thing, the best thing is that it's fairly inexpensive AND is sold in the Literotica Adult Toy Store, which is available on the main page of this site. Just go there and look up ""Lubes and Lotions"", go down to ""Oral Sex"" and it's there. And no I'm not getting paid for this gratuitous plug, it's that I love that store and Good Head really is THAT good. +Good luck to all, and happy heading!" +863,Turn Your Husband into a Cuckold,skiing_js,How To,2019-02-20,2019-02-20,2022-01-04 08:41:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/turn-your-husband-into-a-cuckold,How to turn your husband into a cuckold.,"['Cuckold', 'How To', 'Husband', 'Wife']",3.96,"I am a bull and I've slept with a fair amount of married women in just about every variety possible. Some cheating, some in open marriage, some with cuckold marriages. A while into it I realized how common it was for husbands to secretly fantasize about their wives cheating on them. So I would collude with those husbands where I would seduce their wife, get her to cheat and give the husband all the details of that. +This story is the opposite of that. I met a wife that was in a ""normal"" monogamous marriage and she wanted to openly cuckold her husband. This was new to me but I devised a plan to make that happen. This is based on a true story and I was ""dylan"" in this story. The dialog and the exact process is partially fictional, but the end result was the same: Julie had slowly turned her husband into a cuckold. +Julie had hinted around having sex with other men to her husband before but had been shot down. She had an overwhelming urge to have sex outside her marriage that never left her head but also didn't want to cheat. She wanted to convert her traditional monogamous marriage into a cuckolding one. +That is when she met Dylan. Julie was honest with Dylan from the start that she was married, wanted to have sex with other men, but wanted her husband to be ok with it. Lucky for her Dylan was into this kind of kink and a very sexual creative person. So Dylan devised a plan to make it happen. Mostly skeptical Dylan had a history of women flaking out after they aren't horny and never going through with something. So he didn't think she would see the plan all the way through and even if she did skeptical her husband wouldn't put his foot down and say no chance. At that point Julie had said it was a deal breaker for her and she wouldn't move forward. +Julie comes home one day and you tells her husband, ""so I was at the grocery store today and the fire department was there. Do you know they shop for groceries everyday because they work 24 hr shifts? They shop for groceries for lunch and dinner at 10 am everyday. It's pretty crazy. I probably talked to them for a half hour until their radio started beeping and they had to run off. They are very nice bunch of guys."" +She is very excited about it and husband accuses her of flirting but she says ""no"" but also blushes about it. Then without saying much more she leads him into the bedroom and fucks him. This was the first step in getting him to associate her seeing the firefighters with sex with him. +She waits about a week for him to think about the event before she moves to step two. This time he comes home making steak dinner. Kind of odd because they just had steak a week ago but he loves steak so didn't ask questions. She then tells him, ""So a really exciting thing happened to me at the store today. The keys got stuck in my ignition and I couldn't start my car!"" +Husband responds, ""hmm ok that doesn't sound that exciting did you just call triple A?"" +Julie responds, ""no you remember those firefighters I was talking to last time? Well they just so happened to be there at the same time and I went in and asked Dylan if he could help me. The others kept shopping but he came out to my car and was able to remove the key and show me the trick to it. He also knows a lot about VWs and offered to fix it so it doesn't happen again."" +Husband replies, ""well that's weird, why don't you just call a mechanic?"" +Julie, ""why would I do that when he offered to fix it for free?"" Then the discussion is dropped and she just doesn't bring it up again. +She waits three days. Husband comes home for dinner, once again excited she is making steak and this time she is really dressed up. So husband ask her why she is dressed up. +Julie, ""i'm this old thing? No I'm just going to get the car fixed after dinner."" +Husband asks, ""wait is there a shop open this late?"" Then in the middle of the sentence remembered the firefighter guy had offered to fix her car. +Julie rushes out the door and says, ""oh I'll be back in a bit."" +Husband is a little bit annoyed when she gets home blushing and very late and wants some answers. She responds, ""oh relax honey it just took longer to fix the car than he thoughts and chatted with them for a while."" With no more explanation. But as soon as she is done talking she pulls him into the bedroom and fucks him senseless. No foreplay whatsoever just like she had been thinking about it the last 3 hours and went immediately to that. Usually tough to make her cum this time she had an orgasm almost as soon as he slide his cock into her already soaking wet pussy. Then again came 3 more times. +She waits another week for all that to sink in. The next time it's saturday morning. Husband sees her getting ready at 9 am like you are going for a night out in vegas. Makeup, dress up, do your hair. He asks, ""honey why you are dressing up like that."" +She denies she is dressing too much and a little annoyed he is questioning her wanting to look nice ""i'm not, I just need to go the grocery story real quick."" +By that time husband has figured out, ""wait are you going there dressed up for the firefighters? +She replies, ""NO! Of course not, I'm married to you. Dylan could have any girl he wants, I'm sure he isn't interest in a married housewife."" Which doesn't reassure husband in any way. +Afterwards she comes home very disappointed. She went to the store dressed up and they weren't there. They most have got a call because she had spent an extra long time getting her groceries and waiting for them to show. Husband asks if the fire department was there and she just say, ""no."" Husband gets no sex afterwards. +Later that day he is out working and she starts making cookies. It's not something she does often so he thought it was a little unusual. He comes in and asks her why she is making cookies. He grabs for a cookies and she swats his hand away. This is a cuckold power struggle metaphor. +Julie replies to him, ""no this is for Dylan and his crew. You can lick the beaters though."" +Husband is annoyed but also also can't say much because he didn't make the cookies. Julie puts the last batch in the oven and lifts up her apron and her skirt underneath, pulls her panties off the side to give him access to fuck her in the kitchen. The last time they had sex was over a week ago when she told her first stories about talking to the firefighters. Husband notices her pussy is already wet but he doesn't care he gives it to her, she moans a little, doesn't cum and he cums pretty quickly. +She briefly cleans up, doesn't put her panties on, grabs the cookies out of the oven along with the others then heads out the door. She gives her husband a quick peck and says, ""thanks hon."" She walks out the door with the cookies not leaving a single one for her husband and is once again gone for 3 hours. +When she finally gets home he asks her where she has been. She doesn't say anything. They just go into the bedroom and she jumps on top of him. It's not often she ever initiate sex or has it twice in a day but this time he is getting both. She riding him and makes it pretty obvious her eyes are closed and she is thinking about something else or someone else. Husband wonders but he isn't about to ask questions. She is moving her hips like she never has before and more into it than ever before. She clenches her pussy around his cock and milks his cum out like she had started working pretty insistently on kagal exercises. It was an odd feeling for her husband like not only she was practicing kagal, she was practicing sex on him! But that is an impossible to ask question so he lets it go. +Immediately after some great sex they are still catching their breath. Julie turns to husband and says, ""so I brought the cookies to the guys. I was talking to dylan in the parking lot and he tried to kiss me?"" +Still catching his breath husband doesn't really know how to respond and finally asks her, ""well what did you do?"" +She says, ""well I didn't know what to do, I didn't kiss him back though."" +Husband, ""wait so he tried to kiss you or did kiss you?"" +Julie, ""well he did but I didn't say he could and I didn't kiss him back"" +Husband still confused at what to think after his wife just gave him and incredible fucking he's still catching his breath from: ""well... I don't think I want you going down there anymore."" +Julie gives a very long pause, ""ok."" +A month goes by. Julie hasn't had sex with her husband since then. It has been enough times husband has realized she only has sex with him when Dylan gets her horny but there's nothing he can do about it. He brought it up once and she just denied it. That night husband comes home from work and she immediately greets him at the door and went right to her knees to put his dick in her mouth and just takes him all in like a wild woman. She hasn't been interested in sex lately, hasn't given him a blowjob since they got married, She has never met him at the door for an immediately blowjob. It was also quite a bit different than before like she had been practicing. It had been a month so husband had a lot built up and it didn't long and he shot a load of hit cum down her throat, she swallows every drop of it which was also entirely new. +She gets up, cleans up and doesn't say anything and waits for her husband to ask what that was all about. +Julie replies, ""well I met Dylan for coffee today."" +Husband, ""you mean that firefighter guy, I thought we agreed you weren't going to see him anymore?"" +Julie responds, ""I know but things ended weird when I last saw him and I didn't want him to feel weird so I asked if he wanted to meet for coffee. He apologized and said he felt guilty about it and respected that I am married."" +Husband, ""well that's good I suppose."" +Julie, ""ya, I don't think he meant it though because he kissed me again."" +Husband responds: ""oh my god! Again! what did you do this time... Wait is that why you gave me a blowjob right when I walked in, did kissing him make you horny? Did you kiss him back?"" +Julie, ""no, me kissing him didn't make me horny but I could feel his huge dick pressed up against me and that made me horny."" +Husband, ""wait you kissed him?"" +Julie, ""Honey we can either sit here and fight about this, or we can go for round two!"" +Julie gets up grabs her husbands hand and tries to lead him to the bedroom. Still not sure what do or say he just goes to the bedroom with her. She rips off his clothes climbs on top of him and starts grinding him like she never has before. Husband did not expect this but this was the wildest his wife has ever been. It didn't take long of her grinding and her pussy gripping his quickly recovered hard cock. She starts to cum and he does too. Right when he starts she moans, ""Oh god Dylan give it to me, fuck me Dylan, fuck me!"" Then she lets out the loudest scream she ever has with him. Almost the point the husband is worried not only the neighbors will hear her scream they might hear her scream Dylans name. but that is the last thing on his mind. The only thing he is worried about is his wife's pussy gripping his cock and pulling all the cum out of it as it shoots deep inside of her. +They lay there catching their breath for a while and husband tried to figure out how to approach this. Finally husband musters up the words to ask her, ""so what's going on? Are you cheating on me with Dylan?"" +Julie, ""honey no! I love you, you are my husband. This is just my imagination."" +Husband, ""well I don't want you to see Dylan again."" +Julie doesn't respond turn the other way and goes to sleep. +Another week goes by. Husband comes home to his wife making steak. The last several months every single time they had sex was when she had a run in with Dylan. Husband was well aware of this fact but to his knowledge they had had sex, only a kiss. He also started to notice a pattern that every time they had sex she made steak. Just like a Pavlov dog, husband got home to steak and got horny right away. She was also dressed hot looking like she was ready to go. +Finally at dinner this is where husband needed to say something, ""honey why is it every time we have sex it's after you saw Dylan? Are you cheating me?"" +Julie, ""No! You are my husband, I love you... But I am going to suck dylans dick!."" +Husband, ""wait what? When?"" +Julie, ""right now, I'm supposed to go over to his place."" +Husband, ""what? Wait honey can we talk about this? You are just going to cheat on me?"" +Julie, ""no I'm NOT going to cheat on you and I have never cheated on you. Like I said, I'm only going to suck his dick that is not cheating! Don't be such a prude. I'm sorry if that hurts your feelings but he's got a huge dick and I've gotta put it in my mouth."" +Husband, ""I don't even know what to say right now."" +Julie, ""you don't need to say anything, I'll be home before midnight. Love ya! bye."" +Julie walks out the door leaving her husband sitting there finishing his steak dinner with blue balls, fully expecting sex but instead got this. Julie was smart though. As a safety factor she didn't actually go to Dylan house. In case her husband flipped on her and was waiting for divorce papers she was going to feel out his reaction and have an out playing it off like it was a joke. So instead of going to suck Dylans dick she went over to her girlfriends house. She had several texts with her and took several pics of them together. This was just a backup plan though she only planned to show him if he freaked out to the idea of sucking Dylans dick. She could just say, ""Oh no I was just wanted to see how you reacted. I hung out with Alexis."" +But she never had to use this Alibi. She got home and husband was still up. That is where the discussion really happen. Husband was left at home to jerk off and these new thoughts of his wife being a slut, he couldn't help but get turned on by them. So he asks her, ""how was it?"" +Julie lied, ""oh my god his dick was amazing!"" +Husband, ""so did you fuck him?"" +Julie, ""no I didn't, I was saving my pussy for you, you want it right now?!"" +Once again husband is left confused but not about the turn down sex so he agrees and they once again have some incredible sex. Afterwards the long discussion starts on how he feels, ""on one hand I feel terrible, my own wife is cheating on me."" On the other hand the sex with you has been the best ever and I don't know what to do about that."" +Julie reassures him, ""honey I love you, you are my husband. This thing with Dylan is purely sexual."" +Husband, ""I thought you didn't have sex with Dylan?"" +Julie, ""I haven't yet, but tomorrow night I'm going to fuck him."" +Julie had called his bluff. She hadn't actually done anything sexual with him yet but this was the moment of truth. Depending on what her husband did this was either going to happen or not. All this work put into this plan came down to what he was about to say. After a long pause he finally says, ""will you at least use a condom?"" +Julie gets a huge smile on her face she got exactly what she wanted and says, ""of course!"" +They both rolled over and both slept very little that night. Julie had excitement, husband had cuckold angst. To reaffirm his decision she rolled over to him and had some middle of the night sex as well. Morning came and husband went off to work. A few concerned texts from the husband that day but the date was still on. +She went out with Dylan that night and did fuck him. She didn't actually use a condom like she promised her husband, one little white, creamy gooey lie. Dylan absolutely blew her mind and all the hard work of making her husband into a cuckold had finally paid off. Dylan fucked her twice that night and she came more times than she could even count. More than she had with her husband in the last six months and it was worth it! +Of course there was much more discussion that followed. The husband started being turned on by the idea. Eventually instead of a reward of sex husband started getting off to be denied sex and hearing all the stories of his wife fucking Dylan. She eventually confessed Dylan had never used a condom and husband loved that. She would send her husband pics and a video of Dylan fucking her in every room in the house while husband was at work. Husband even eventually was trained to eat out dylans cream pies when she would get home from her date with him. Julie had successfully converted her monogamous married into a full on open cuckold marriage and everybody was happy." +864,Ultimate Truth Or Dare,TooCleverByHalf,How To,2014-01-02,2014-01-02,2022-01-04 08:41:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/ultimate-truth-or-dare,The party game guaranteed to please.,"['Game', 'Party Game', 'Seven Minutes In Heaven', 'Spin The Bottle', 'Stripping', 'Truth Or Dare']",3.37,"**Ultimate Truth Or Dare** + _As demonstrated in ""The Warmest Winter, Day 09""_ + **What You Will Need:** + * A bottle from an alcoholic beverage (your choice). You may even have more than one, depending on how much you would like people to drink. + * Index cards (at least 9) + * Shot glasses, at least one per person. Preferably one for every shot in the game. + * A timer, preferably digital. + * Paper and pencil, to keep track of certain rules. + * One set of gaming dice (one die each with twenty sides, twelve sides, ten sides, eight sides, six sides, and four sides, called a d20, d12, d10, d8, d6, and d4). + * Players (of course). +As with any drinking/sex/party game, every person should be open to doing whatever comes up, with anyone else present, especially given the random nature of the game. If this is not the case, agree on rules adjustments prior to the game. +One player will sort of act for the game in a role similar to that of a Dungeon Master in a D&D game. They set the timer, write down necessary notes, announce new rules, and adjudicate as needed. It is most useful for this person to go first in a round, to demonstrate how the rules work each round, for those not yet familiar (or are quite familiar but also drunk). +Some preparation is required. As host, calculate how drunk you want everyone to be and work backwards. X amount of alcohol per person, times Z number of people, given that booze Q that I want to serve is Y proof, there will be... K number of shots. +Example: A 200-mL bottle of Eiswein is to be split among four players. It's a fairly hefty proof, and the host wants the players to be tipsy and uninhibited, but not drunk and reckless. So, half-shots. This makes for thirteen shots, with a little extra. +All booze that does not split evenly among the players is combined into one container (this may be quite a bit larger than a shot for a big group), and is called the Big Shot. More on that later. +Write the rules for each round down on an index card, and stack them in order. These are great for referring back to as needed. You can also shuffle them without looking, for an even more chaotic game. What follows is the recommended order. + **Round 1:** +Truth Or Dare, straight up. +If someone does not know the rules, they probably shouldn't be playing this ultimate version. But just in case, let's go over them. On your turn, you ask another player of your choice ""Truth or Dare?"" If they say ""Truth,"" you ask them a question and they HAVE to be honest. If they say ""Dare,"" you dare them to do something and they HAVE to do it. + **Round 2:** +Add Spin The Bottle. +You now spin to see who you ask ""Truth Or Dare"" to. You also spin for the objects of dares, when appropriate. If a spin result is impossible, spin again. + **Round 3:** +Add the Dare Die. +The first Dare Die is the d20. On your turn, you roll the DD. If it's a 1, the object must Dare. It decreases to d12, d10, d8, d6, then d4 each round. It stays on d4 the remainder of the game. + **Round 4:** +Add the shots. +At the beginning of your turn, you must drink a shot. If this gets you too drunk, blame the host. The last shot is called the Big Shot, and the last person wearing clothing must drink it. + **Round 5:** +Subtract Clothing. +From this point forward, all clothing removed may not be put back on. Contact lenses, jewelry, and the like may be excluded at the group's discretion. + **Round 6:** +Time's Up. +The next timed Dare is one minute long, adding a minute for every Timed Dare afterwards. + **Round 7:** +Add Seven Minutes In Heaven. +From this point forward, every time you Spin To Ask and the result is yourself, that's seven minutes. Keep adding three minutes for every subsequent spin in the same direction, as needed until the bottle points to someone else. The number of minutes is how long the spinner and the other person have in Heaven. This counts as a completed Dare, but not a Timed Dare. + **Round 8:** +Subtract Clothing +From this point forward, anyone who is clothed must remove one item of their own clothing at the beginning of their turn. If the player is naked, the article may be removed from anyone.

Some people think kissing is one of those things you do on the way to other activities. I happen to be someone who feels that kissing can be more intimate than any other type of sexual contact. +Part of my personal fascination with the activity stems from the many years I spent ""saving"" my virginity. Prolonged episodes of kissing became a substitute for intercourse in many of my relationships. By this, I mean that ""sex"" as an expression of affection was replaced by kissing. Although this did not result in orgasms for either party (except once for him), it did serve the function of conveying sexual attraction and shared affection. +Of course not all kisses are romantic or passionate. The word ""kiss"" is used for the very different touch of a mother's lips on her infant's forehead, and the open-mouthed deep tonguing between two breathless lovers. So, to clarify, the ""kisses"" discussed here are related to the second type, rather than the first. +What constitutes good technique is obviously a matter of personal preference. Certainly some like kisses harder or softer, dryer or wetter, etc. Most of us like different things in differing situations. +My personal feeling is that adaptability is a key element. A kiss is shared, and as such is a thing created by two different minds. Great kisses happen when the two people find common ground. Many have implied that a great kiss is a moment of chronologic stillness. ""Time stood still."" Indeed, the feeling that you are both very clearly in the present is often quite exciting. In my experience, men who concentrate on their kisses and consciously think about the action leave the best impressions. Confidence (but not arrogance) combines with assertiveness (but not aggressiveness) to convey strong emotions most effectively. +I actually still remember the name of every man that has ever touched his lips to mine. Although there were not very many, I kept the names in a journal throughout my teen years, with occasional notes and comments about them. Over the years, I discovered that I was sort of mentally rating each one. The categories that I mentally considered were the following: +1\. Romance Was it romantic if the occasion warranted romance? +2\. Technical merit According to my own preferences, meaning good lip contact, slight suction, and the right amount of tongue at the proper moment. +3\. Lust-invoking Did it leave me wanting more? +4\. Creative/artistic Did he do anything *different*? +The following list was compiled from both journal entries and memories. (Consistent with the above ""definition"" of the kisses discussed here, no one appears below unless the lip contact lasted for at least a few seconds.) +\----- +Josh +I was 13 when I got my first kiss. Josh and I were outside with my best friend and her then-boyfriend, Jason (who was a good friend of Josh's). They left to go inside, but Josh grabbed my arm and suggested that we ""look at the stars"" for another minute. I stayed, hoping he was planning to kiss me. +When he turned and stared into my eyes, my heart was about to pound out of my chest. I was hardly even disappointed when the kiss was too wet and far too aggressive. Although he had later opportunities to improve my impression of his technique, he never did kiss very much better than that first night in the moonlight next to my best friend's swimming pool. +Josh's specialty -- the ""no warm up"" french kiss, normally suitable only in long-term relationships and definitely not appropriate for a first kiss. +Luke +I kissed Luke at a party one night, and immediately knew that I had experienced the worst kiss I would ever know. Yuck! WAY too wet, too much tongue, no creativity whatsoever. Gross. For his sake, I hope he eventually improved! +Luke's specialty -- the ""dead fish"" kiss, which I've been trying to forget ever since. +Jason +This is the same Jason that my friend was dating when I kissed Josh. Jason was gorgeous, so I was willing to overlook the fact that he probably didn't really like me as much as I liked him. I was easily lured with the line, ""can I see your bedroom?"". +His kiss and touch were a little like him -- very self-centered. Technically OK, but it's hard for me to judge because we only kissed for a few minutes on that one occasion. +Jason's specialty -- the ""kiss and run"" technique, which really has little more to recommend it than Luke's ""dead fish"" kiss. +Erik +Erik deserves some discussion, since he held the title of ""best kisser"" for quite some time before he was dethroned by another. Our first kiss was also at a party. I brought him with me as a friend. A while after we arrived, another guy whom I had been interested in but ""rejected"" by arrived at the party. I asked Erik to please pretend that we were romantically involved. As a favor to me, he began to dance with me and hold my hand. +This lead to more serious ""pretending"" and eventually some very real kissing. My head was spinning that night from the sensual pleasures, and I can still almost feel the movements of his mouth against mine. Erik kissed great. He and I also kissed on many other occasions, and he still remains one of the best in my mind for both technical and creative reasons. +Erik's specialty -- the ""tongue tease"", also known as ""slipping him/her the tongue"", which can be extremely exciting when done properly. +Ben +My first kiss with Ben was both romantic and exciting. We had a short weekend kissing ""fling"" that was sweet and intense. It included some great passionate embraces in an elevator on the way to the 10th floor of the building we were working in. +I ran into Ben several years later at a drugstore where he was then working part time. I was checking out with a box of condoms (his checkout line -- oops!). It was rather embarrassing for both of us, and the small talk was strained. I suppose he assumed at that point that I was not a virgin any longer... +Ben's specialty -- the ""elevator kiss"", which is an urgent and rushed passionate embrace, usually in a place where you could get caught at any moment. +Christian +I adored Christian, but even the strong emotional ties I had for him did not make up for his sloppy technique. Christian bluntly told me he was a lousy kisser, and he was right. +Christian was the one man I actively tried to reform, even giving verbal requests on occasion. He took the advice in a good-natured manner, but never really did conform to my own personal tastes. +Christian's specialty -- the ""steamroller maneuver"", which involved rolling around on the bed excessively, and playfully squishing the other person while kissing in various ways. +Tom +Pure unadulterated perfection, every single time. We kissed everywhere and every way, and it was bliss. Tom and I would literally kiss for hours at a time when we were first dating and I was still preserving my virginity. +During that cold fall, we used to make out in the Jacuzzi under clear starry skies. I can still feel the almost painful juncture between the icy air and the hot bubbly water. He would cup his hands and fill them with water, then pour the water on my shoulders to keep them warm. He told me the other day that he still thinks of those days and secretly longs for that kind of raw expression of emotions. From my perspective, his kisses were technically flawless, extremely creative, and often very playful. +Tom's specialty -- ""perfect timing"", which defies explanation if you have not already experienced it. +Troy +Troy and I only kissed me a few times, but we shared some memorable moments. Troy's technique was better than average, and he was also rather creative. +One grossly in-your-face macho man maneuver of his has somehow become immortalized in my memory. I cannot explain why this struck me, but it did. He wanted me to tilt my head back, so he twisted his fingers in my hair and actually pulled on it. He seemed quite impassioned at that precise moment, and I was moved by the ""rawness"" of the gesture. Although this style is not normally my preference, the memory still arouses me. +Troy's specialty -- ""the hair trick"" and related maneuvers, to position one's partner precisely for ideal angles and superb mouth access. +John +John was sweet, but his technique was a little immature. John's strength was the intensity and concentration he displayed. Technically not too bad, but he was a creative zero. I imagine that he probably improved with age and experience. +John's specialty -- ""the mirror trick"", which is the fun (or irritating) practice of imitating your partner's movements. +Mark +Mark and I were in love. We were together for over two years. He was the first man I had sex with. We shared some wonderful times. However, I really didn't like the way he kissed. Mostly, I just ignored this fact because (as I said) I loved him. +Mark's specialty -- ""the unmemorable kiss"", which, unfortunately, is self- explanatory. +Ingmar +Ingmar was Mark's best friend. After Mark and I broke up, Ingmar and I spent a lot of time together, just as friends. Late one evening, we crossed the line from friends to something more. We were sitting together on the couch, watching country music videos. Our hands slowly inched together, and he began softly caressing my fingers. +We shared a slow, close dance, and one lovely string of good night kisses that lasted for several minutes. He told me it had been at least a year since he had last kissed anyone, but his skills didn't seem to be suffering from lack of recent use. It was gentle, loving, and surprisingly arousing. Those few kisses had quite an impact on me, as I have dreamed about kissing him several times since then. +Ingmar's specialty -- ""good manners"", where you verbally request the kiss before actually performing it. +Brian +Brian was experienced, and it showed. He had soft lips, a daring tongue, and his mannerisms were delightfully sexy. Brian was skillful and creative, in kissing and other related activities. +Brian's specialty -- the ""lip suck"", which involves taking your partner's lower lip between your own two lips, and sucking on it while running your tongue back and forth across it. +Matt +Matt was too eager. He used too much pressure and did not leave enough air space. My lips felt bruised every time I could get them away from him. He was fun to be with, though -- always cheerful and optimistic. +Matt's specialty -- ""the crushing kiss"", which can be nice on occasion in the correct context, but is not recommended as a regular activity. +Derrick +Who can be objective about the current object of one's affection? Derrick was the first man to ever kiss me in a public place. In fact, our first kiss (during our first evening date) was across a small table in a very crowded room at a local comedy club. +He later confided that he had actually wanted to kiss me after our first lunch together. That really would have surprised me because we said our good-byes that afternoon in front of the library where we both worked, and many people we worked with would have seen us. Occasionally being kissed in public is a special treat because it proves that the person you are with wants others to know that he or she cares about you. It is a possessive gesture, and sometimes we all want to be possessed. +Derrick's specialty -- ""she's mine"", as described above. +\----- +Now I think perhaps you can kiss as I prefer. Come closer and I'll show you exactly how it's done. Look me in the eyes and silently tell me that you want me. Concentrate on the moment and make your message and intentions clear to me. +Move towards me slowly and give me an opportunity to shy away. If I do, remember that I may want you to try again later. Otherwise, you'll know by the look in my eyes and the encouraging way I am leaning towards you. +Where are your hands? Place your fingertips on my cheeks. Run your thumb across my lips softly. As I part my lips oh-so-slightly, take the opportunity to wet your fingertip on the tip of my tongue. Trail the moisture along my top and bottom lips. Feel my shallow breath move softly across your hand. +Now move your hands upward with splayed fingers, your parted fingers on either side of my head and your thumbs under my chin, lifting it slightly. Tilt my head very slightly to the right. See me wet my lips in anticipation. +Move your head towards mine. I will watch you come to me until the moment your lips make light contact with mine, when my eyes drift softly shut. +Brush your lips across mine briefly, then pause for my response. Pay close attention. If I want more, you can feel my body shift towards you almost imperceptibly. Lean towards me again, and this time hold your lips against mine for a second or two. +Now, show me that you want a deeper kiss. Part your lips slightly first and close them against mine a little wetly. I should hear that sexy ""smack"" as it ends. Remember that I want you to end each kiss with this particular movement. Repeat this several times so that your desire for more is clearly conveyed. +Use your hands to tilt my head the other direction. Dip your head towards mine again and this time begin by very quickly flicking your tongue across the juncture of my still closed lips. This is your request, like a knock at the door. Will I answer? +This time I do. I part my lips very slightly and meet yours in a similar state. Your tongue travels carefully to run across the soft inner edge of my upper lip. Position your head so that our mouths are tilted at almost a 90 degree angle. Be sure your lips maintain good contact with mine and apply a tiny bit of suction. +Move your tongue further into my warm, wet mouth and touch the tip of my own tongue with it. My tongue will then follow yours as you run it along the bottom edge of my top teeth and the top edge of my bottom teeth. Stretch your tongue further into my mouth, meeting mine and swirling around it in a playful dance. Now, withdraw your tongue and begin a new kiss so that I can have my turn. +I want to explore the inside of your mouth from a different angle, so I leave your lips long enough to tilt my head to the right again. You eagerly cooperate with the repositioning. +The next kiss is more aggressive. I want you to know that you have aroused me as I run my tongue intimately along the space between your upper teeth and your upper lip. Our tongues meet again and do battle once more. End the kiss now when you know I still want more. +As you pull away, I open my eyes and my desire for another kiss is clear. You want to tease me a little, so you begin kissing the hollow of my throat and the side of my neck, and eventually work your way towards my ear. You place my right earlobe between your teeth briefly, then take the earlobe into your mouth and suck on it for a moment. You can actually see the goose bumps rise on my skin. +Whisper in my ear softly that I taste great, then begin kissing below my ear and down my neck again. I will close my eyes and tilt my head backwards, exposing my entire neck to you in the universal gesture of surrender. +Kiss me again, please. You do it so well..." +866,Uncut: A Guide to the Uncircumcised,AnotherWannabe,How To,2012-11-14,2012-11-14,2022-01-04 08:41:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/uncut-a-guide-to-the-uncircumcised,"For the uncircumcised, those who love them, and the curious.","['Being Uncircumcised', 'Blowjob Advice', 'Circumcision', 'Hygiene', ""Men'S Health"", 'Sex Advice']",4.33,"**Things they don't teach you about being uncircumcised** +If you stopped me on the street and asked me to draw a penis, I'd probably draw a stalk attached to a pair of hairy balls with a big, glossy helmet at the end. I'd draw this even as my own penis looks nothing like this: I'm part of small but growing number of men who are ""uncut"", that is, uncircumcised. We think of penises in this way not only because that's what the majority of cocks look like, but because that's how penises are constantly represented, from porn to medical textbooks! These images cause some uncut men have anxiety about their ""abnormal"" penises, even choosing to be circumcised later in life. But the ironic truth is that it is we, the uncut, that have ""normal"" penises and those glossy purple-headed dicks the ""abnormal"" ones! +Let's most past the politics of involuntary genital mutilation (barbaric and inhumane) for the moment and realize that cut penises work differently from uncut penises. If you have an uncut penis, you may not have been taught proper hygiene. You might not also know how to have sex, and find it uncomfortable or unpleasurable, or that you're cumming way too fast. But this document isn't just for the uncircumcised. If you are the parent of an uncircumcised child, you might consider giving some of this advice to them (if only related to the hygiene). If your partner is uncircumcised, maybe you want to know a little more about their penis. This is also written for you. +No one taught me this stuff, I can't claim any of this as scientific. It is purely based on my experience, and I offer it to you so you don't go through the same learning curve as I did. If my advice seems basic, then it is basic advice I had to learn on my own. I will be quite graphic and explicit at times about very intimate things to me, so I ask that you respect that. + **Hygiene** +I've had plenty of women describe uncircumcised penises as ""dirty"" or ""gross"" to me, probably not realizing that I'm uncut. It made me feel like I was the Hunchback of Notre Dame, penis edition. But there's nothing inherently ""dirty"" about a foreskin. Like any other part of the body, if it doesn't get cleaned regularly, it's going to get filthy. And if your penis is filthy, every woman (and man) has the right to walk straight out of your bedroom. So pay heed! + _Peeling Back_ +First, you must learn to ""peel back"", that is, how to pull back the foreskin to expose the head of the penis. I think a lot men and boys might not do this because, if you aren't used to peeling back, it can be painful and your head is very sensitive. If you don't do it in a long time, it can seem impossible, the foreskin is so tight around the head that you feel like it just won't fit. As a kid, when I didn't practice proper hygiene, I'd have this problem. But it is crucially important that your foreskin is pliable enough to peel back. +If you do find yourself so tight and sensitive that you don't think you can do it, then simply ease your way into it. Push the limits of your discomfort but don't try to force it. Eventually, you'll be able to do it. +Once you can peel back, however, DO peel back at least once a day, best while in the shower. I don't think it comes naturally to peel back for some people, so it's a habit you have to nurture. Ideally, there should be little to no discomfort when peeled back fully. If you have persistent discomfort, then either you don't do it enough or you have a more serious medical problem and should consult a doctor. + _Washing_ +If you have foreskin, you're at risk of nasty, smelly (cue the organ pipe music) SMEGMA!! Some call it ""dick cheese"". I call it ""totally disgusting"". If you have it, don't expect your partner to put your cock in their mouth. But after reading this you've really got no excuses because it's very easy to prevent. +Now, the reason some of you might not clean under your foreskin is because your head is too sensitive. If you are very sensitive, shower water hitting your Johnson directly can be pretty uncomfortable. In that case, you need to gradually reduce the head's sensitivity. Try splashing it with water instead, or climb into the bath and let it soak. Eventually, you should be able to whip it out in the shower without worrying. +At the very least, you need to rinse off under the foreskin, splashing it with water. I also use soap by squeezing some soapy water directly onto it (wow, this is very personal), then rinse off again. Applying soap directly to the head would be too uncomfortable. I don't know if there are special products for the job but I don't use them. +I'd also consider drying it off before tucking it back in. I wouldn't use a towel, but shaking it off should do the trick. I've never tried this before, but using a hair dryer could also work. I don't have a hair dryer, so I can't test out my theory. +Failure to wash like this on a regular basis will make your dick disgusting, and you shouldn't expect your partner to even touch it, let alone allow you to put it into one of their orifices. + **Sex** +When I began having sex, I always felt like I needed to disclose my uncircumcised nature before exposing myself, as if to give my partner the opportunity to flee. I'd say something like, with my thumbs in my underwear, ""I just want you to know: I'm uncircumcised,"" and wait for their faces to contort with disgust. +I pretty much don't do that now. For almost every woman I've been with (not many), I've been their first uncut guy, and if they've already gone that far they're willing to go further. Other women, I've heard, have had bad experiences with uncut guys: they cum too fast, their penises were ugly or, worst of all, they had smegma. Luckily, there's something you can do about the first and the third, and I haven't received any complaints yet (and I've got an anonymous suggestion box by my bedpost!). +I'm splitting this section into two. The first section will be dealing with sex _as_ a circumcised man. The second will deal with sex _with_ a circumcised man. While I assume a male-female sexual relationship, I suppose this advice could be generalized to homosexual relationships. Not lesbian ones, obviously. That would be an odd lesbian relationship. + _Sex as a Uncircumcised Man_ +My first few sessions of sex were strange and awkward. It was because, basically, I didn't how to have sex with a foreskin. Before then, most of what I knew about sex was from porn. It turns out that things are much more complicated than sticking it into your lady, pump, repeat. +You might find sex painful. You might cum way to fast. You might find it a total chore! All three have happened to me, and it was because I didn't realize the golden rule. The rule for real estate developers is _location, location, location._ For uncircumcised men, it's _foreskin, foreskin, foreskin._ But don't blame me, I had no one to teach me! +First, and this is important, wash your cock. I've heard that some women prefer the taste of an unwashed cock, but this might be one of those things that are only encountered in porn. I can't say I like the taste of unwashed pussy. In any case, that's between you and your lady, but it's always the safer option to rinse off. If I think I'm going to get lucky, I do it before I go out. If I find that I'm at a lady's home, I try to excuse myself and use the sink. Sometimes, if the mood demands no opportunity to prepare, I'll not do it, and I can get away with it because I wash up every day. +Now we move onto penetration, and this is where peeling back is so important. If you can't peel back at all, sex isn't going to feel good. It's going to be painful, and you probably aren't going to cum either because you can't thrust like you should. As you penetrate, the foreskin is pulled slightly back, so if there's any tightness you will immediately feel it. It will almost feel like there's a brick wall inside her pussy, and you can imagine fucking a brick wall is pretty painful. +Let's say you're quite pliable. You might be running into one of two problems: the experience is too intense and you cum within minutes, or sex is a total chore and you can't cum at all. Some of this may be a lack of experience, but, as an uncircumcised man, know that you have a built-in orgasm switch that cut men just don't have, and you may not know how to use it. Use your switch correctly, it's almost like a cheat code for controlling orgasms. We call it the foreskin. +You see, while the head of your cock is very sensitive, it is actually the friction between the foreskin and your knob which provokes sexual sensation and eventually orgasm. You control that friction, you control your orgasm. Try masturbating while peeled back. It's very hard (orgasming, I mean, not the cock). Now try it hood down. Much easier. +I've never had sex without a condom, so I can't talk about the efficacy of this strategy when bareback (I imagine it would hurt). But generally, if I don't want to cum, I keep my head peeled back, and the condom will help it stay in place. Sure, there's not much sensation for me, but my ladyfriend is having a good time, and I can basically go on for a while without porn-star endurance or tantric sex magic. I've never tested the limits of this, but I'd say I'd sooner stop from physical exhaustion than from an orgasm. +When I'm ready to cum, the hood goes down, and it's an entirely different story. I have no idea what it's like for cut men, but a woman's intimacy does something for me nothing else could possibly do. There is no greater pleasure than to thrust deeply into a woman as she thrusts herself upon you, it is moment of extraordinary, blinding ecstasy even before the orgasm. And when you finally do, the sensation of pumping into her soil... it feels like love. Raw, undiluted love. If an artist could capture an emotion into a sensation, that would be it. +Women give you a very special gift: an invitation into themselves. It's why I always try to respect a woman's love, even if it is just one night, and not degrade them by calling them names when they aren't around, or to insult them by treating their gift casually. +I'm on a dry spell as I write this. I miss sex. +That aside, I have no idea if what I've written above is the experience of other uncut men. It is, however, my experience, and that's all I have to work on. + _Sex with an Uncircumcised Man_ +Why should you consider having sex with uncircumcised men? Why abandon Mr. Giant Purple Cockhead for Sir Wrinkly Top? The primary reason is that I'm uncircumcised, and I'd like to get laid more. That aside, uncut men have, I think, a different set of sensations from cut guys. They experience sex more intensely. Also, they have their natural orgasm control mechanism intact, whereas I think cut guys don't have the same capability. +By the way, don't actually stop having sex with cut guys. I don't want to get accused of being a cockblock. +Now, I've never been with another guy, and haven't been planning on it, so logically I don't have any experience screwing other uncircumcised men. My experience is of being screwed as someone who is uncircumcised, so naturally what works for me might work on other guys. +Some of you might think – oh yes, the cock head, that's even more sensitive on an uncut guy, I'll go ahead and throttle that for the evening. NO. PLEASE DON'T. IT HURTS. If you touch the area under the foreskin without some preparation, you are more likely to get a yelp than a groan. And just because it's more sensitive doesn't mean a pleasurable sensation: you don't poke 3rd degree burns, you don't just poke a guy's knob! +You see, I vaguely remember some scientist telling me that there are many nerve endings in the foreskin, and the foreskin is really the place that generates sexual pleasure for uncut guys. Specifically, the motion of the foreskin as it glides over the head. It is very difficult to make a guy orgasm from just polishing his naked helmet. +That doesn't mean you should never touch it. Just know what you are doing. Make sure it is very lubricated, oil or lube works but precum works as well, just anything that acts as a barrier between the head and raw touch. Then, gently explore it. Look at how your man feels. If you feel confident try rubbing it or licking it. Just remember that it is very tender. +Armed with this knowledge, you should know how to get him off and when to tease him. A greater variety of things will likely make him orgasm. You can jack him in the traditional way, or your can lightly massage the knob through the foreskin. Either will likely get him off. +I've heard that cut men don't really get off by mouth alone, that one must use their hands in addition to lips. For me, the suction will work, and I imagine much is the same with other uncut guys. I could never convince my lady friend to suck me of to fruition (but damn, I wanted her to), so I can't know for sure. +If you're with a new guy, before venturing to areas underneath the foreskin with your mouth, you should have a brief check to see if it is clean. I don't want you to get a mouthful of disgusting stuff, that makes uncut men look bad. If all is clear, you can try to put your tongue directly onto the head, and it could be exciting or uncomfortable depending on how you do it. As always, do it lightly at first, gauge the reaction of your guy, then be more bold. +Because of the foreskin use of teeth (very lightly, of course) is permissible. Just don't, you know, bite down. +That's how you treat a guy. While every guy like a blowjob, for me, blowjobs are _awesome_. I don't know if it's because I'm uncircumcised or not, but it's a very special treat to get from a lady. My lady friend would always kiss me after the fact, which felt nice and intimate. I only wish I was more experienced at returning the favor. + **In Closing** +I said that I'd set politics aside, but I stipulated ""for now"", and this is the time to come back to it. If you oppose the involuntary female genital mutilation, it would be hypocritical of you to support involuntary male genital mutilation. Foreskin is an extremely important part of the penis, it is where the majority of sexual sensation is generated. It is my personal belief that this is also the part of the penis that give men the ability to control orgasm. The ability of circumcised men to experience pleasure in sex is crippled compared to those who still have their penises largely intact. And if you don't think this is a big deal, remember this: every argument for male circumcision (it's more hygenic, it reduces the risk of cancer, it promotes moral behavior, it's what God wants, men don't miss it once it's gone) were used to defend _female circumcision._ And, of course, many men accept that they're circumcised, and that's perfectly fine. But take this analogy: we have a diet problem in the United States (where I live) do we scrape off the taste buds of babies to solve it? After all, they can't miss what they've never had. +Alright. So. If you're an uncircumcised guy, you might have learned something from this. Or not. If you're embarrassed because you didn't know this stuff, don't be, people can only work with the information that they have. Smart people throughout history have believed in what we now know is crazy stupid stuff : the geocentric universe, young Earth theory, supply-side economics. The only genuine stupidity is to shut yourself off to learning anything. +Some of you may be like, ""Damn Wannabe, I knew this shit, but why didn't you mention XYZ?"" If so, know that this is purely my own experience, so please message me or leave a comment with your experiences and knowledge and maybe I can update this at a later date. I'd be glad to read what you have to say, though I can't promise I'll respond. +If you are a parent and have opted to leave your son's penis intact, I commend you. There is a chance that he'll blame you later for _not_ having his schlong mutilated, and even if he decides to be circumcised later in life you made the right decision by giving him that choice. But that decision is only a part of it, now you need to educate your child on how to take care of themselves. No one is born with innate knowledge of how to do these sorts of things. +I don't want to be too hard on those parents who had chosen to circumcise their child. It is, after all, the ""default"" thing to do, and it's likely it was just something that you didn't think about. It doesn't make you a bad parent and you shouldn't feel bad, but you should consider opting out of circumcision next time, especially if you don't have a religious objection to it. +If you are a circumcised guy and are feeling a little left out, believe me, it works both ways. There have been times in my life where I've been ashamed of my uncircumcised penis and have felt anger towards my parents for not having it cut. Now I'm older and more confident, and I think my parents made the right decision. +Finally, if you are a person oriented towards men – a lady, a man, or anything in between – I hope my advice has been helpful and this improves your relationship. There's nothing inherently weird or unnatural about being uncut... in fact, it is the more natural way to be. So when you're with a new guy who pulls out a couple centimeters more wang than usual, don't retreat, give him a go! He might be me! +P.S. I have no anonymous suggestion box by my bed.

She was sitting in my kitchen proof reading my latest erotic gem on the laptop when she suddenly screamed apoplectically. +""She's having her breasts measured! I thought we were starting a campaign to have all use of bra size measurements banned on the grounds of boredom and cruelty to women, sorta like bestiality and under pensionable-age sex."" +I patiently tried to explain it was just my very unsubtle plot device to get the girl's naked breasts to be fondled by a strange woman in public whilst her boyfriend watched, but this wasn't enough for FW. A woman who spiked my story about how Rock Hudson did some bareback riding with a frog – the frog did turn into a handsome prince – is not to be trifled with. +Even though absolutely no numbers or measurements were quoted in the story – which FW is straining every sinew to keep unposted - my penance is to launch this plea to never, never quote bra sizes in literotica stories unless the plot absolutely demands it. I mean, you would never write, 'His hands slid down from her twenty-four inch waist to rest on her thirty-six inch hips,' would you? Not if you expect a good score from the readers, surely? + _Anyway, here goes!_ +""I'm Elle and let me introduce myself. I'm a 38DD sophomore at Literotica Nymphomaniac Community College."" Yes, yes, truly, some people do start stories pretty much like that. I'm not sure how most of them end though. +Why is it, in stories, men are always human beings and women just bra sizes? I can assure you, probably from about eighth grade on, almost all girls are unhappy about their breasts; too big, too small, wrong shape, too saggy, even just 'funny looking'. From the first moment our chests start budding we are crossing our arms tightly in front of us to hide the evidence, and then by twelfth grade we are now embarrassed that ours are smaller than all of our friends, so begin stuffing handkerchiefs or socks in our bra cups. Please, oh great deity, may I never sink to the chicken fillets! +And so it goes on; even when we start to like the bubbies as we learn how they can get us a lift home or a larger pay rise, the last thing we want to do is broadcast statistics. In fact, we are seldom sure exactly what size we are. It's good, though, I admit, when you guys check labels in the naughties drawer just before birthdays and Valentine's; we can always exchange them if they don't fit. +Anyway, in his superb guide on 'How To' write erotic stories, 'The 10 Commandments', The Earl says, ""Never use measurements unless you have a very good reason. [. . . ] They restrict the reader's imagination. Plus, when was the last time you found a man who could tell women's bra sizes from outside their clothing?"" +I would go a whole lot further. If a naked woman handed a man a tape measure, pencil and paper and asked him to check her bra size he probably couldn't get it anywhere close to right. Mind you, it's odds on neither would the woman! +So, just promise me this guys – and I think it is guys, really; I'm pretty sure I haven't yet seen a female writer on the site using bra measurements as descriptions of breasts – take this little examination (no stirrups or speculums) and promise me never to put a bra size in your stories unless you get all the answers right first time. On your honor now, no peeking! +A) The vital statistics of a woman with a bra size quoted as 38C are 38-xx-xx? +B) The number 38 in 38C equates to inches? +C) Cup size C is bigger than size B and cup size DD is smaller than size E? +E) Cup size is related to the bust measurement or breast size? +F) A woman's breasts are symmetrical? +Well, that was easy wasn't it? Now swap papers with the person sitting on your lap and we'll look at them together and see what crops up. All those who wrote 'it depends' as the answer to every question clearly has no need to carry on here in Breasts101. Full marks and you can advance to the graduate program and start on your thesis explaining the exact anatomical differences between 36D breasts and 38C breasts; with diagrams, please. Now nipple-long please, the rest of us have work to do. +For the remainder, please refrain from ever using bra size as a breast description unless you add a disclaimer explaining exactly how the measurement was obtained and verified, with written confirmation from the heroine that her bra fits properly and a note citing manufacturer and model of bra. +You see, breast measurement is one of those Catch-22 thingies. Lingerie retailers and bra manufacturers claim that more than seventy percent of all women wear the wrong size bra, but many more than seventy percent of all women claim that lingerie retailers and bra manufacturers have no idea how to measure women's busts. Let me explain. +FW said she'd been mooching along for a while now with bras that are generally 34C or 36B. That's right guys, different sizes but the same tits! How can you write that in your story? It can be a personal choice, but usually depends on the manufacturer; you see there seems to be no industry standard for cup size. One company's B is another's C. How can you cope? Sloggi sports bras seem bigger than Elle McPherson Intimate Secrets. Cup sizes of the same manufacturer even change between model and size. A 36B is usually slightly bigger cupped than a 34B but have you checked between the under wired and the soft cupped ranges? What about padded or half-bra? +In any case, bras have two – usually three – sets of hooks. If I hook up my 58GGG's (joke) on the first setting, have I got the same rack as a girl who strains to 'get things together' on notch three? And when the damn thing has been washed a few times it stretches, so you have to do it up more tightly – so you're getting smaller? Seriously, any attempt at quantification is pretty meaningless and is no substitute for good description. +Most women tend to stick with the same brand or brands and use trial and error when they change. You try on zillions and buy the one that seems most comfortable. Not exactly rocket science, but I pity the poor husband in the Victoria's Secret store at Christmas; unless he's taken some plaster casts, of course! Just looking in the unmentionables drawer for labels may not be enough. +And there's another point for you guys who are hooked on numbers. Think of shoe sizes for example. Despite thinking you are a 7, you go to the shop and try them on and find you need an 8 because the style you like are cut narrowly. So what shoe size are you? Good job too, otherwise how would all those young male shop assistants get to go home on the bus in stained pants because women always go shoe shopping in a short skirt and with no panties? +A bra is a skillfully engineered torture device where, for any individual woman, there are a range of sizes that fit. So when your fairy princess is 'clearly braless under her spaghetti strap crop top' then what exactly are these 38D cantaloupes she's waving in our faces? Are they, perhaps, 36DD when she's wearing a cantilevered bra with underwiring from Wal-Mart or, do you really mean 'full, voluptuous breasts stretching her spandex top as if on a mission to escape their cotton-lined Alcatraz'? Why not explain? It is much better for our imagination. +So FW and I decided to run an experiment from scratch as research. First, we got on the Web to find out the proper way to measure breasts and were absolutely amazed to find there is no one accepted standard. We found more than half a dozen methods from reliable sources, which gave wildly different results. True, the major retailers seem to have a roughly similar approach, but the answers we got from their instructions were sometimes hilarious. +We started with Victoria's Secret, but Sears, Figleaves, Maidenform, Agent Provocateur and most of the other big names were pretty similar. You take your top off and put on a well-fitting, soft bra. Catch-22 again; if you've already got a well-fitting bra, why are you doing this measuring lark? Doh! +First, you measure round the ribcage, right under the breasts then, for some inexplicable reason, add 5 to arrive at 'band size'. Well, to be brutally honest, you can add anything from three to six, depending on the store's guidelines. Also, some sites added different amounts as you get bigger – that is bigger chested, not bigger breasted; others added less. FW came out at 34 inches and, when you add 5, that makes 39, but bras only come in even sizes (why?) so that rounds to 40. Forty what, you may ask? Not inches certainly, not dollars or even Polish zlotys; it just is 40 nothings, or somethings; it is just called 'band size'. Perhaps it is to make us air-headed girlies feel good, or bigger, or something. +One thing guys – the number is absolutely not the circumference round the biggest part of the breasts. Furthermore, band size cannot physically change; I mean the ribcage stays the same. If you ever read of a starlet having 'augmentation' surgery to go from a 34B to a 38D – they are lying to you. There is no way she has had her ribcage enlarged. Or rather, they are conning you. In actresses' or glamour models' 'resumes' you often see vital statistics quoted with a cup size added, so you get something like 38C-26-38. This probably overstates her band size by around two but pleases the punters: just guessing, but she probably wears a 36C bra – if she ever wears a bra. +Step two is easy. Measure the bust over the biggest part – nipples guys! – keeping the measure parallel to the ground. Here lies another catch, because the tape is away from the chest from boob to boob. If your breasts are widely spaced apart, you are going to get the same bust circumference as a woman with slightly fuller, but more narrowly slung, lulus. Explain that in a story. +""Come on FW, that makes you 40 inches, not bad eh?"" +It said on the screen that you must deduct band size from bust measurement then look the result up in a table to get cup size. OK, that seems straightforward. We take 40 from, err, 40 and get, err, zero. Even AA goes up to half an inch! I can personally vouch for the fact that it has been quite a while now that FW hasn't been able to squeeze into teenage training bras. +""FW, don't quite know how to tell you this, but, officially, you are bra size 40AA and flat-chested. The bad news is Vicky's Secret doesn't sell anything in your size, but the good news is you don't need a bra."" +Cupping her burgeoning peaches, if not melons, in her palms, FW gave me a quizzical look. The meaning was crystal clear. A 40-band bra would only have the remotest chance of stopping traveling south when it reached her hips; and then only if it hit at an angle. We knew there had to be something wrong, perhaps we had misunderstood the websites so, it was time to go shopping. +In the malls, the sales staff were insistent, sometimes downright aggressive; this was the way to assess bra size. Desperate pleadings to look at the evidence poking out in front of their eyes, that FW was not flat chested or 'big boned' – whatever that means – fell on stony ground. According to the most popular _corsetieres_ my modestly endowed companion was officially a '38A' or a '40AA' but I defy any passing lit writer, male or female, to have guessed that from seeing her naked jugs. +We were told condescendingly that not all women comply with the norms, that perhaps she should try trial and error, and thereby implying that my friend was some kind of anatomical freak. I think the real reason is that a lot of sales assistants are not well trained and, in reality, correct bra size has very little to do with tape measures. +Back at home, we made another run-through of the sites. Another way of measuring band size we found was to run the tape above the breasts and under the armpits. +This is not suggested by many of the online shops, but generally by the wonderful medical sites offering really detailed advice for women after lumpectomies or mastectomies. With FW, this approach at least gave a band 36, that is, 34 inches and add 2. Doing the standard cup size bit, she then came out as 36D borderline E – a bit over the top but a lot closer than 40AA. The medical/ women's health sites seem much more on the ball than the shops, anyway. Perhaps it is because they care more. +However, to our utter amazement, the best measurement approximation to the bras she actually buys came from a site for transvestites and cross-dressers. Perhaps these guys have had to work harder to master the art. At least they have more options than we do to hone their body shape; unless you're into surgery, that is. +The advice they gave that seemed best overall was to measure above AND below the breasts. If the difference was less than two inches, take the ribcage measurement as band size. Otherwise, try the armpit measurement and add 2. This seemed ideal. We had now got two measurements for FW that gave a band size of 34 or 36 – just what she wears. +The other incredible revelation from this site was that cup size doesn't matter very much to breast circumference. Guys wrote that going up four cup sizes with inserts only increased the circumference measurement by about one to two inches. The advantage of being able to vary breast size at will probably helps, but the findings are pretty clear. The predominant determinant of numeric size is always going to be the skeletal, ribcage criterion and not the 'these breasts could cushion the fall of a dove's egg from 30,000 feet' mentality. +Put in simple terms, there is very little difference, probably less than 2 inches, in breast circumference between a Dolly Parton look-alike and the emaciated, four cups smaller form of Orphan Annie – provided their ribcages are the same size. Furthermore, they will both have the same band size. Don't snort; this is as much a surprise to me. Guys, please understand that women's breasts vary far more in area and mass than they do in projection from the chest wall. Your 46DD only effectively describes the build and body shape of your heroine – it tells us nothing really useful about the look of her bazookas from outside her clothes! +In fact, without telling us the height of your protag we are like a blind person in a dark room in a fog. A five-foot tall girl with 34C bra size would appear a heck of a sight more 'voluptuous' looking than a six-foot tall girl with the same boobs. Trust me, I know! +A plastic surgeon friend of mine told me that all he could ever really do for a girl who 'wanted to be bigger' was add volume. That's why they call it 'breast augmentation'. He said that, on a rough rule of thumb, an extra 150cc (about 5 fluid oz.) added a cup size but, it did not make the tits stick out much more! Sure they're firmer – something about quarts in pint pots if you stretch the skin – but it is mass, not projection. With a boob job, the tits spread out and fill the skin; they don't stick out much further. Certainly, sticking a saline bag or two between your pectoralis (chest wall) muscles will not change the ribcage size at all. +There are games you can play, though. When I want to flaunt a bit of cleavage, for a party or something more intimate, I drop a band size. This pushes my tits together and upwards, so voluptuous 32Ds, in their strapless casing tonight, will, like Cinderella, revert to a prosaic 34C tomorrow. +That is another thing. Shoulder straps are not really essential. They are just there to act as stabilizers for the cups. They should never be support for the breasts. The band is the main support and the rest of the bra cups the boobs to be supported by the band. The current fashion for spaghetti tops with bra straps showing has a lot to do with wearing underwear as outerwear – a bit like showing thong-T's above the back of low-rise jeans. +But, to come back to the SAT test at the beginning, I've already explained that the number has nothing at all to do with breast size. All I really understand about a 38D bra size is that the woman has a ribcage between 32 and 38 inches and nothing much about her boob size except she is probably full- breasted. You, on the other hand, may well be imagining that her bust measurement is 38 inches and teats stick out like Jane Fonda in Barbarella. +Similarly, cup size is as far from a science as most politicians are from reality. Just to completely confuse things, a C cup for a 30 band bra is almost certainly no bigger than a B cup for a 38 band bra. So guys, the petite 30C looks like what exactly? What you have in your head is probably totally different from what I see in my mind's eye. It goes further. Beyond size D, no-one can even agree on names. One company's DD is another's E – and not the same size, to boot. I have just read a story where the author said, ""I would have put her as a DD maybe even an E."" Did he really mean, 'I would have put her as a Playtex, maybe even a Maidenform'? +Oh, I forgot another small point. Most women don't have the same sized breasts. Apparently, according to the AMA, 90 percent of American women have a right breast slightly smaller than their left. No idea why that is, but I haven't seen that feature in the anatomical details I've read, something like, ""her left love puppy was a 36C but the right was only a B."" Perhaps we really do have Amazon genetic history! I always hoped so. +Yet another teeny complication; you are posting here to a global readership but do you know that there are dozens of different ways in the world to enumerate women's bosoms. Just a stray thought that struck me, didn't Abraham have a bosom? Was he a 30F or a 48A? +Also, most of the world is now metric. How is 48F supposed to mean anything to an Australian, even a Sheila? If some New Zealand writer talked about these drool-making 16D's would you have the slightest idea what he meant? A '36' US or UK measurement is going to be 95 in France, 80 in the rest of Europe, 3 in Italy and 14 in Australia. Also, even between the US and the UK, cup sizes usually vary by half an inch. A 36A in the US is likely to be a 36B in the UK. Help the world enjoy your story – abandon the measurements. +This begins to come back to my penance. If anyone quotes a breast size of 40AA I will immediately think of FW, which is probably not what you intend, and probably not what most other readers will imagine. Are the breasts round or pointy? Are they sticky-uppy or dangly-downy? Are the areolas puffy and the nipples large? That can make a good cup size of difference. And, I assure you, that matters to a female reader and is usually deep in the male fantasy, as far as my limited experience goes. +So, having explained why bra size is a pretty useless way of describing bosoms, what positive advice have I got to offer? How should you talk about tits? +Breasts are rich and full, heaving, pendulous, wide, narrow and hung high or low on the chest, just the size to cup nicely in his palm, soft and springy like two stress balls – I could go on. I'll buy fruit comparisons; ripe plums, sweet apples, firm peaches, grapefruit – at a pinch, even melons (just spare us kumquat). Now you know they don't stick out much further than other girlies, start thinking about other ways how to make me jealous, excited. How about using descriptions like jutting, buxom, compressed or erupting cleavage, pert globes, porcelain half moons, spheres or orbs? Colors and textures are good; dusky pink, olive, coffee, nut brown. These are not necessarily favorites of mine but just examples I can remember reading. +Why can't we all use some of the descriptive talent that makes a good story: 'Her pinched, slender waist accentuated the voluptuous swell of her generous hips'? Bottoms can be bubbles, apple-shaped, heart-shaped or even split peach perfection. Why can't breasts get the same loving, descriptive treatment? +""As she lay back on the bed, the long, coral pink nipples and generous areolas stood proud of the expansive, firm flesh that cradled them. He had never found a woman with breasts so sensitive."" +Whatever the gender of the writer, I read your stories as a woman. I really go for the bits where he 'takes her soft mounds in his warm palms and slowly rolls the balls of his thumbs over her achingly hard nipples'. Just please, don't quantify them then put them on the shelf marked S, M or XXL to get treated like inventory. You don't understand, it puts off women readers and it's not erotic – even to a lot of men as I have been told. +One summer vacation during college, I worked on a major construction site as a 'girl Friday' – that means 'gofer' – and I thought I heard the whole thesaurus of words that could describe female mammaries. In the unbridled sexism and lust – that I quite liked – no-one ever quoted bra sizes. The one expression I will always remember is, 'get an eyeful of those great mazoomas'. What exactly are 'mazoomas'? Who cares? For the men who used the term it was a mix of lust, admiration and, in a strange way, a touch of respect. For me, in context, it was far more descriptive, visual and erotic than anything that has a number attached to it. +We all know there are quite a sizeable number of synonyms for both male and female genitalia. It is just that much of the vocabulary is along the Tab A/ Slot B lines, even if he sticks his 'love lollipop' into her 'steaming channel of desire'. +Yet, in researching this piece, we found upwards of three hundred general slang words for the female protuberances. My particular favorite was 'Cupid's kettledrums', but there is surely a place in the world for such gems as 'love- pillows', 'FiFi's Funballs', 'lung-nuts' and, even 'two raisins on a bread board'? But it goes further. Unlike any other body part, we are obsessed, both male and female, in giving bazoomikas new, and personal, names. +Recently, Scarlett Johansson announced that she loved her breasts – 'My Girls', as she called them. No, no, her girls, not my girls! Anyway, whilst her 'My Girls' would look drop-dead gorgeous in a Wicked Weasel bikini, my 'My Girls' would be more like two half-deflated, patchy-albino party balloons defying the laws of physics. That's why I call mine 'Laurel and Hardy': one's bigger than the other and, when out in public, they make people laugh. A girlfriend of mine talks about her 'Garfunkels' – because they are so high pitched. +That, really, is the nub of the matter. From quite different perspectives, both men and women are fixated by what jiggles up and down on female chests. The orbs are pretty damn redundant, most of the time just ornamental like baubles on a Christmas tree, and only being practically useful for a short while after you have babies, but they seem to define femininity, womanhood, for us all – male or female. Losing a limb or an eye is an awful, frightful prospect, but it pales in comparison beside the fear and trauma to women of losing a breast. +Somehow, deep in our psyche, breasts define our gender – our belief in ourselves as women as we face the bathroom mirror. Perhaps that's why I get so riled when a lady's 'dessert trolley' gets summarily dismissed as a letter or clothes size. +I was going to conclude by suggesting that you should always write about breasts – full, perky, firm, areolas the size of silver dollars, moving up and down on her chest as if inviting Stud to slide his cock between the pert hillocks – then FW brought me down to earth. +She said the word 'breasts' sometimes had a very negative ring for her; something a bit medical relating to lactation, mammograms and stuff. Breasts live a Jekyll and Hyde existence – sliced up on Thanksgiving with the gravy and potatoes; then morph to become the most secretly romantic thing – 'he gasped as the moonlight played on her alabaster breasts, the full swells almost translucent as they rose and fell in the silvery glow'. On reflection, I think she's right. Those 'double whammies' are like the sea, ever changing, colors segueing from the crystal azure blue of sun drenched tropical bays to the wind-whipped, gray aquamarine savagery of the wildest oceans. +When Ms Jackson's wardrobe malfunctioned, it was fascinating to study the vocabulary of the warring sides, split between the 'boob flashing' and 'exposing her breast' camps. I'll leave you to remember who was for and who against. +You start getting boobs – scary – at puberty. By college they have become fun and jolly and they help to get guys to check you out so, you decide to keep them until, forty years and umpteen kids later, you can tuck the deflated flesh sacs into the waistband of your jeans. Then you've really got breasts or, even worse, bosoms. Generally, boobs are a bit giggly girly. I've got tits when I feel a bit feisty, or when you get on them, and jugs and hooters make me want to holler and be a country girl. Didn't Daisy Duke have jugs? +In fact, watching the TV news, I've decided that Condi has certainly got breasts – my other half thinks she might even still have boobs – whilst Hillary has more likely got a chest and Barbara B has surely got a bosom. I can't explain exactly why I think it and there's certainly no similar distinction for a man's dangly bits as he gets older. +So, spare not the midnight oil you male authors. Armed with this information, let your creative juices ferment. Since the dawn of time, the bodacious tatas have been a primary erotic focus between the sexes. More than child bearing hips, big booties and the phallic imagery of trains going into tunnels or tall factory chimneys collapsing in a heap, a pair of ripe Winnebago's, nipply doo- dahs, chumbawumbas or shoulder boulders have been used by wicked women to lure poor, simple men to their doom since time immemorial. +There is so much expressive language out there to use for a nice cuddly pair of snuggle puppies; there is absolutely no excuse for resorting to the lazy shorthand of bra sizes that no-one fully understands. Anyway, it just makes me think you are quoting the size of the handles you can grab hold of when stoking the furnace. +So, in the words of the wise, the thong is over but the mammaries linger on." +868,Understanding Human Sexuality,edcrane,How To,2005-03-31,2005-03-31,2022-01-04 08:41:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/understanding-human-sexuality,The evolutionary mechanics of sexuality.,"['Evolution', 'Men', 'Sexuality', 'Why', 'Women']",4.27,"A quick look in this ""how to"" section will reveal a veritable cornucopia of guides about why men and women do various things, or the precise mechanics of foreplay, or even how to ""get laid"" if you're a geeky guy. These can all be useful, but there's a tremendous amount of subjectivity involved in these discourses. The purpose of this rather brief essay is to disseminate a more scientific understanding of both male and female sexuality in terms of evolutionary biology. +Before we delve into men and women, we must first understand the rather simple mechanism of natural selection. The genetic imperative is a simple one: replication. In a world of limited size/resources, which is commonly referred to as a ""Malthusian world,"" those able to produce the best/most/best equipped progeny, survive and are ""selected"" by overwhelming the less advantaged. As Richard Dawkins eloquently demonstrated in _The Selfish Gene_ , complex organisms are akin to highly developed vehicles for Genes, and specifically serve their single imperative. Humans are unique in their capacity to cooperate with non-kin members of the same species, however we are still essentially the same sorts of vehicles as other organisms. +The only other prerequisite for approaching human sexual behavior in terms of biology, is understanding the separation of proximal and ultimate causation. Proximal causes can be understood as emotional drives or feelings. Ultimate causation is the logic underlying these urges. The latter is what we will examine here. +Now, onto the topic at hand: human sexuality. +Men: +Males are simple creatures (in terms of sexuality). Facial hair appears to be one of the most prominent sexually selected physical attributes particular to men. The human penis and testes are both relatively large (in relation to our body mass) compared to other primates. +The size of the human penis is directly correlated to the size of the human vagina, which is necessarily large to accommodate birthing a child who has gestated for 9 months and has a fucking big skull. The shape of the human penis creates a squeegee-like effect with repeated thrusting (this, in conjunction with examples to follow, has been understood to function as a means of removing competing sperm from other males that may reside in a woman's vagina and within the cervical cavity, which indicates early humans were likely adapted to promiscuous mating). +The large testes of the human male (relative to the rather small testes of our close relative the gorilla) are capable of producing hundreds of millions of sperm. Empirical studies (see _Sperm Wars_ ) have demonstrated that men unconsciously control the amount of sperm they ejaculate based on the probability of the presence of other competing sperm in the female, as well as based on the amount of time that has past since they last copulated with the given female, maxing out on average at about 600 million sperm. +Another point of interest supporting the promiscuous mating hypothesis, is known as the ""Coolidge effect."" It turns out that the human male (along with a myriad of other mammals adapted to promiscuous mating) is capable of performing sexually multiple times in a row, without the assistance of Viagra, under certain circumstances. The first circumstance occurs when a male is presented with the opportunity to fertilize multiple different women. The second occurs when another male is present, and the second male releases sperm into the female in question after the first. In this case, as long as the first male is conscious of this activity, he will be able to once again perform sexually, and inject additional sperm into the female. +Women: +Females are a tad more complex than males, in a sexual sense. The most prominent sexually selected attribute women exhibit appears to be breasts (while other primates have breasts, most of them tend to physically morph into features indistinguishable from their male counterparts when not in the stage of nursing children). As a result of the long gestation and weaning period of human offspring, females are far more selective when it comes to sex. +They also exhibit an interesting attribute that is seen in some (but not all) of the other great apes. This attribute is called occult ovulation. It basically means that the human female is highly skilled at hiding (not only from males, but her own conscious mind) the exact times at which her body will be capable of fertilization. This attribute helps the female obscure paternity from males, and in conjunction with other factors, allows her to more actively select paternity for her offspring from sexual partners. +Another fascinating, though not entirely explainable phenomenon is called cervical tenting. Cervical tenting occurs when a woman achieves orgasm. At that point, the cervical opening assumes a shape that looks a bit like an elephant trunk, and functions as a straw, and with each contraction it angles down into the vagina and sucks up either vaginal fluid (which is acidic and, once incorporated into the cervical mucus, will reduce the likelihood of fertilization) or, if it present, sperm (increasing the chances of fertilization). +Ultimate motivations: +Men, who in promiscuous situations have only nominal assurance of paternity, and have little invested in child bearing, have a tendency to mate with as many females as possible (in order to assure maximum replication of their genes). Monogamous situations, which seem to occur as humans achieve longer lifespans, change this formula a bit, as paternity is more clearly assured, and the male has more to gain by investing resources into his progeny. In such situations the male becomes more heavily invested in child rearing, and less inclined to engage in promiscuous behavior (though one would expect vestigial urges to remain). +Females are assured of genetic relatedness to their offspring, regardless of the sexual conventions of her culture. As previously mentioned, long periods of gestation combined with protracted periods of nursing make the female highly invested in selecting the proper male to father her offspring. Highly promiscuous societies like the Canela appear to obscure paternity in an effort to build social cohesion and discourage infanticidal urges and the like. In monogamous societies, the female still has motivation to ""cheat."" This urge is demonstrated in many other animals including certain birds previously assumed to be monagmous, that frequently ""cheat,"" when possible, to procure superior sperm for fertilization. The logic behind this motivation is rooted in the female's guaranteed genetic relatedness. In either monogamous or promiscuous situations, the female's optimal strategy is to attempt to find the best possible sperm donor, in conjunction with the best possible provider (not necessarily the same individuals) to support her family. +Conclusions: +Putting moral judgments aside, it is important to realize the causation of our various urges. Ultimate ""happiness"", inasmuch as happiness is defined as satiating all of one's desires, is rarely achieved. In both promiscuous and monogamous societies various natural urges are suppressed. In the former type of society, jealousy is ""evil"" and is punished as such. In the latter type, promiscuity is ""evil"" and likewise punished. Obviously there are individuals able to transcend cultural limitations in either case, but these are exceptions to the rule. What is important to understand here is that these proximal urges are rooted in a single, logical genetic imperative. This seems rather simple, but it has dramatic implications when it comes to morality." +869,Understanding Love,PolySwingerWife,How To,2021-06-20,2021-06-20,2022-01-04 08:41:11,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/understanding-love-1,"What it is, how it works, and how to do it.","['Cheating', 'Forgiveness', 'How To Love', 'Jealousy', 'Love', 'Possessiveness', 'Romantic Love', 'Unconditional Love', 'What Love Is']",4.43,"What spurred this post was a comment from an anonymous user that was posted to one of my recent entries entitled, ""Are There Downsides To Cuckolding?"" +The gist of the post was that what kills many cuckold marriages is the same thing that kills other, monogamous, marriages. You'll read in the comment below what I said, and the response that followed. +""You understand sex very well, but know ZERO about love!! +""This is going to be bad news for you: ""true love is unconditional"" you said? Not even by an inch. It is possible to be unconditional if it is returned back as unconditional as given. Chances of that happening makes LOTTO win looking like a walk in the park. Because of that, LOVE is VERY CONDITIONAL and POSSESIVE!!"" +The commenter stated that, essentially, they could love unconditionally if the other person loved him/her unconditionally as well. The problem with that kind of thinking is that unconditional love that has conditions isn't unconditional love, it's transactional. +Unconditional love is a selfless act. You're not in it for yourself. +When you put conditions on your love, you turn love into something that has to be earned. When a person feels that they have to earn another person's love, there is no feeling of security. There is always that fear that something they may do or not do may cause the other person to stop loving them. The problem here is that love and fear can not coexist. +In her book Life Lessons, Two Experts on Death and Dying Teach Us About the Mysteries of Life and Living, co-written with David Kessler, Elisabeth Kübler- Ross discusses some big ideas concerning love and fear. Love and fear are the two primary emotions in humans. Kübler-Ross argues that all other emotions exist under these two primary emotions: either an emotion comes from a place of fear or a place of love. These core emotions underlie every other emotion we have. +When we're afraid of something, we're more likely to tear it down or throw it away. Coming from a place of love, however, encourages us to create, build, and/or add. +When the commenter above stated, ""LOVE is VERY CONDITIONAL and POSSESIVE!!"", he was talking about transactional love as well as contractual love. +We get with another person and we feel that we have some type of ownership of that person. In a typical monogamous marriage, the couple has a contract that has ownership stipulations and a term length. +Often people cling to the ""forsaking all others"" part, yet they often forget about the ""Until death do you part"" part. +Jealousy stems from fear. And, as I have noted, love and fear cannot coexist. So, especially if you are married, there should be no fear if there is love. +What strikes me as odd is that too often people choose fear over love. The reasoning behind this is self-worth sustainment. +A person who can only love conditionally/transactionally/contractually is usually a person that was raised by or around people who had exceptionally high standards and expectations. Because of this, the person that can only love conditionally is a perfectionist. They've worked hard at proving that they are worthy of love. And, sadly, this is the only type of love that they know and understand. +Because these people believe that love is something you have to earn, they are often possessive, as our commenter stated. +Jealousy stems from fear and possessiveness stems from neediness. And neither are helpful or attractive. +One might feel that a little jealousy is a good thing. It means that you are important to another person if they are afraid of losing you, but if they need you instead of wanting you, that is a different matter. +Jealousy also stems from comparison. What does this other person have that you don't? What more could they offer that you can't? In this instance, we are brought back to fear and self-worth. +The driving force behind jealousy and possessiveness is insecurity. +The jealous and possessive person is always on guard. They tend to make their partner a suspect. They expect this person to wrong them, and then they are surprised and overwhelmed when it happens. +It is those who have low self-esteem that are most often jealous and/or possessive. And that makes sense. If you do not see yourself as worthy of another person's love, you want to control as much of the relationship as you can. This will lessen the possibility that what you believe you lack will come to the forefront. +Love without possession means wanting your partner to be happy even if you aren't the one making them happy. A relationship can't be a person's only source of joy. You need more layers and nuances in your life. +A person that is jealous and/or possessive relies on the other person for their self-worth. And a person that is jealous and/or possessive is more interested in control than love. +When you want to control another person, you are telling them that you don't want them to be themselves, you want them to be who you want them to be. And you want them to act the way you want them to. This is a trait of ownership, not love. +We should always aim to grow each other's worlds rather than restrict them. +In a possessive relationship, there is a severe lack of trust. +Children that grow up with an ambivalent/anxious attachment style grow up to be adults who are self-critical and insecure. They seek approval and reassurance from others, yet this never relieves their self-doubt. In their relationships, deep-seated feelings that they are going to be rejected make them worried and not trusting. And this leads to jealousy and possessiveness. +Let me ask you, do you see these as signs of love: An inability to trust, feeling insecure in romantic partnerships, the need to control others? +Most of our insecurities are formed in childhood and throughout the school years. And those who carry these insecurities into adulthood are often those who are jealous and/or possessive in their personal and/or romantic relationships. +Now that we know what love isn't, maybe we should find out what love is and what it entails. +First off, what are the types of love? +Eros - is a primal and powerful fire that burns out quickly. It needs its flame to be fanned through one of the deeper forms of love below as it is centered around the selfish aspects of love, that is, personal infatuation and physical pleasure. +The second type of love is philia or friendship. The ancient Greeks valued philia far above eros because it was considered a love between equals. As Aristotle put it, philia is a ""dispassionate virtuous love"" that is free from the intensity of sexual attraction. It often involves the feelings of loyalty among friends, camaraderie among teammates, and the sense of sacrifice for your pack. +Storge is a natural form of affection that often flows between parents and their children, and children for their parents. +Although ludus has a bit of the erotic eros in it, it is much more than that. The Greeks thought of ludus as a playful form of love, for example, the affection between young lovers. Playfulness in love is an essential ingredient that is often lost in long-term relationships. +Mania love is a type of love that leads a partner into a type of madness and obsessiveness. It occurs when there is an imbalance between eros and ludus. +To those who experience mania, love itself is a means of rescuing themselves; a reinforcement of their value as the sufferer of poor self-esteem. This person wants to love and be loved to find a sense of self-value. Because of this, they can become possessive and jealous lovers. +If the other partner fails to reciprocate with the same kind of mania love, many issues prevail. This is why mania can often lead to issues such as codependency. +Unlike the other types of love, pragma is the result of effort on both sides. It's the love between people who've learned to make compromises and have demonstrated patience and tolerance to make the relationship work. +philautia is self-love in its healthiest form. It shares the Buddhist philosophy of ""self-compassion"" which is the deep understanding that only once you have the strength to love yourself and feel comfortable in your skin, will you be able to provide love to others. As Aristotle put it, ""All friendly feelings for others are an extension of a man's feelings for himself."" +The highest and most radical type of love according to the Greeks is agape or selfless, unconditional love. Agape is the love that is felt for that which we intuitively know as the divine truth: the love that accepts forgives, and believes for our greater good. +Agape love is unconditional love, bigger than ourselves, boundless compassion, and infinite empathy. It is what the Buddhists describe as ""mettā"" or ""universal loving-kindness."" It is the purest form of love that is free from desires and expectations and loves regardless of the flaws and shortcomings of others. +Dedication in the face of adversity is unconditional love. +I stated in my essay that, ""true love is unconditional."" And I still believe that. +Unconditional love is all about selflessness, acceptance, and forgiveness. You don't consider the benefits or keep the score of the favors. It does not associate with outward appearances. You support your partner and are there for them at all times. The love doesn't go away even when circumstances are difficult. It is a path that leads to an ultimate union of two different individuals. +When you can love without reservations, accept faults without judgment, care about the happiness of the other person and do everything to help that person feel good without expecting anything in return, then you have practiced selfless, unconditional love. +The above paragraph is in sharp contrast to my commenter's statement, ""It is possible to be unconditional if it is returned back as unconditional as given."" +. . . +Love, like many things, is something everyone wants and seeks out, but few truly understand. We all have our understandings of what love is, and often what we believe we learned throughout our childhood. Too often, children carry this same understanding into adulthood. They are then adults with the understanding of a child. +When we realize that the source of all love does not possess anything because it is those things, and the concept of possession simply does not resonate anymore, fear no longer colors our interactions, and boundary lines begin to disappear. +As adults, we need to mature and our loving style needs to mature as well. +Maturity in a relationship is the ability to stick to a certain situation until it is finished. For example, when a person we know seems to constantly change his relationship partners, friends, or job, we tend to label them as immature because they cannot commit to something or someone that is still in progress or maybe because they want these things and situations to be easy- going and once they encountered obstacles along the way, they immediately quit and jump to another person or situation. +Maturity is knowing that you can't have everything your way and the ability to face obstacles, frustrations, discomforts, and defeats without complaints. It's the ability to love unconditionally and to adjust to certain circumstances, and people when necessary. +. . . +I've learned the most about unconditional love from my husband, the man who understands me the most and loves me like no other man ever has. +I would like to say that I, too, love unconditionally, as my husband loves me, but I, too, found myself to be jealous and insecure in the past. +Jealousy and insecurity are not uncommon, but they are signs of immaturity and fear. +What has allowed my husband to love me unconditionally is his ability to love himself, completely, as he is. This allows him to love me, unconditionally as I am. +My husband once said to me, ""Loving someone unconditionally is not accepting someone as they are and not wanting them to grow. It's understanding that growth occurs when you allow someone to make mistakes and to learn from them."" +My husband taught me a long time ago that love is a choice we make every day of our lives. And his choice, every day, is to love me unconditionally. +My husband has also told me that I have helped him to grow, too. +Ray, my husband, has associated love growth with muscle growth. To Ray, love is our relationship muscle. Not unlike muscles, our love and relationships grow the same way that muscle hypertrophy increases muscle mass in the body. +Muscle hypertrophy occurs when the fibers of the muscles sustain damage or injury. The body repairs damaged fibers by fusing them, which increases the mass and size of the muscles. The same applies to romantic relationships. +Anyone can love someone when everything is going well and as planned, but it is much harder for some people to love when there are adversity, challenges, and unexpected situations. +People build muscle at different rates depending on their age, sex, and genetics, and love, like muscle development, significantly increases if it is: +consistent, challenging, and long-term. +Much like muscle loss, the strength of love can decline, as well. But that doesn't mean that once it begins to slip away that it is gone forever. Like muscle mass, love takes work, dedication, and a plan, but it is never too late to rebuild muscle and maintain it. +. . . +How can you love someone that has cheated on you? The first thing you have to do is realize what love is. +It was explained to me best that love begins with charity and gentleness. When you love someone, you do so with benevolence for what is failed, disgraced, broken, angry, and foul in other people and ourselves. +Love isn't about admiration of strength. It is sympathy directed at what is lost and in pieces, and at what we might hate, resent and fear. +It's not hard to love perfection. +It is important to realize that we will all require the charity of others at some time in our lives. We will need others to be able to look past our failings and be able to see our deeply hidden value. +We must be imaginative in our loving of others where there may be rage, bitterness, or transgressions. We must be able to picture the pain and loss that the other person has experienced. +To love with imagination is to be able to see the better reasons why others behave as they do. +Too often people become love's social justice warriors. The thing is that in their fighting for what they feel is right, they forget to be kind. What gets lost most often is a person's ability to show mercy, humility, and grace. +You must realize that there is more to being right and just. You also have to be kind and merciful. +Someone being ""wrong"" doesn't give us the right to stop showing the greatest degree of kindness. +Forgiveness is one of the greatest things you can do for someone you love. We learn to forgive when we are no longer self-righteous. +Love is best when it is given generously. Love is the one thing that you have more of the more you give it away. +Patience is a big part of loving. It allows others to grow at their pace. It gives others time to mature, to go wrong, and wander in another direction. Patience allows another person to grow into their better self. +If you have been cheated on and you are charitable and gentle in spirit, sympathetic and imaginative, kind, merciful, and gracious, forgiving and patient, no matter what happens in your relationship, you'll have two choices: You can quit and give up on love and your partner, or you can begin a new relationship - with your partner. +. . . +Once you know what is involved in love and loving, you can chart your course. You can go from relationship to relationship, or you can build and maintain an existing relationship. +Not one of us is without flaws. And, yes, we all have expectations. But if we can't bend, we will break. +My advice to everyone, myself included, is to not just understand love but to practice love in such a way that it becomes who you are." +870,Understanding Proper English,The Wanderer,How To,2006-10-16,2006-10-16,2022-01-04 08:41:12,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/understanding-proper-english,Seventh revision: English as The Wanderer writes it.,"['British English', 'British Slang', 'English English', 'Ensligh Slang']",4.44,"Understand Proper English Like What I talk +Seventh revision. Includes some suggestions and requests by readers from all over the place. +More demented ravings by The Wanderer _(with some help from readers and friends)._ +A note and disclaimer by The Wanderer. +The original synopsis for this document, it plainly said ""English as The Wanderer writes it"" if you don't like that, ""Bollocks!"" I've been kicking around this country for over sixty years now. If a reader hasn't come across the words being used in the same context, there ain't much that I can do about it. This originally was a list of words and phrases that I've come into contact with over the years and their use as I understand them. If you don't like my list, then write your own bleeding one. On the other hand there are many words and phrases I've haven't heard and I'm happy to add them if you'd like to send them to me +This is not and does not claim to be a complete list of English colloquial words and phrases. It is just a list of them that I have commonly come across or might use in my stories and that I'm have been made aware that some folks might not be familiar with and have difficulty understanding. Plus there are some words and information that I've added purely for interest value. +If you find you have trouble understanding something in one of my tales, you could well find the answer here. If you don't, please feel free to drop me a line and I will try to explain it to you, then I can add it to this list. +However, I must point out there are many variations in the use and meaning of the words in different parts of the UK. I'll ask my fellow countrymen to help me here, if they spot any, what they consider inconsistencies in the list; please let me know what the word commonly means where you live and then I can add that to the list. +To make life easy, please mark all emails on this subject ""Do What?"" Colloquial words in the UK, can take on different meanings depending on the context, your location and/or whose company they are used in. I've already mentioned about different meanings in different parts of the UK. Please don't blame me if you use the wrong word in the wrong way or part of the country and find yourself in a compromising situation. +As an example, I'll take the word ""Prat"" or ""Pratt"". (Both spellings are in common use.) +""Prat"" is a word you wouldn't normally use when the vicar comes to tea. But it can be used in mixed company where it should normally be taken to mean ""A foolish person"". +However when used amongst the boys, maybe in anger down at the pub or in the workplace, it can also mean the backside or buttocks. +To try to explain further, if a friend does something silly or stupid, you can call him a Prat - often phrased ""You silly Prat!"" (Preferably with a smile on your face). You are in effect calling him a fool, and he'll generally laugh with you. +However if you call somebody a Prat in an argument or because you don't like them. Then you are, in effect, calling them an arsehole. Any resultant punch- up is your own responsibility, not mine! +A word about rhyming slang. This is attributed to having been created by Cockney's in East London. But the same idea can often be found in use all over the country. +In Cockney rhyming slang, usually only the one part _(normally the first, but not always)_ of the rhyme is used. This is a useful way to tell whether someone is ""putting it on"", and it is not his/her usual form of speech. i.e. if someone was referring to a new suit they might say ""How'd you like the whistle?"" They should definitely not say, ""Do you like my new Whistle and Flute? +I have included some of the rhyming slang that some members of my family - who were not Cockneys by the way - used in their normal speech whilst I was growing up. Most of these will, on occasions, still be heard and understood in nearly all of Southeast England. I'm not too sure about the rest of the UK; but to my knowledge, I have normally been understood. +Just a little note about grammar! I often get comments on some of the grammar in my tales of woe. Well, I'll just say that normally my stories are told in the first person and I try to write as people think and talk. In your thoughts and when you speak, you don't think and talk in proper grammatical English. Well, I don't and I'm afraid I've never come across anyone who actually does. I'm not trying to write bloody English textbooks here! +And one further point. English English and American English are not spelt the same. Actually if it comes down to brass tacks we use a slightly different alphabet. We have Z pronounced zed, whereas over the pond, I'm pretty sure they have a Z pronounced zee! It might not sound like much but it does make a difference. +There are quite a few, sometimes subtle and sometimes not so subtle differences between British and American spelling that show-up with regularity. Especially for me, because both of the editors who have kindly accepted the unenviable task of reading through my stories to try to make some sense of them, come from the other side of the pond. Actually I think they are both closet masochists, but don't let on that I told you. +English dictionaries differentiate between colloquial English, slang and coarse slang.

Which some folk have found little difficult to understand at first sight or if you haven't visited the country (or some other country where the same system is used). Its getting confusing for us as well now, because there seems to have been a change in the way things are done in the last twenty years or so. But to specify the difference, the floors are often called ""levels"" in these newer buildings. +Right back to the old way of doing things. The floor at ground level has by tradition been called the ground floor. The next floor up is called the first floor and so on. Consequently a first floor flat or office is to be found on the second storey of the building. Lift (elevator) panels are often numbered G, 1, 2 etc. (Although if they are labelled L1, L2, L3 etc. Level 1 is the ground or street level floor, if you're lucky). +\-------------------------- +I noted the other day that someone didn't understand one of the common acronyms that are in use in the UK. I'm working on adding some of those to this list the future.

While women were evolving as gatherers and child rearers men evolved as hunters and physical creatures. +Please don't take that as a sexist statement ladies. Most of you are already aware of that and if you look at the fossil record and history that's how the two genders evolved. +The two primary natural roles for the two genders are still present today. +Women still have the urge to gather (shopping) and nurture (kids, idiot husbands, sad or lonely friends, etc) +Men still have the urge to hunt and be physical (hunting, fighting, war, sports, etc) +That's just the way it is. Thousands upon thousands of years of these primal instincts don't just disappear overnight. +When it comes to interactions between men and women there is something that women need to understand. +Men are insensitive. Yes I said it. We are insensitive emotionally because for thousands of years it would have been viewed as a sign of weakness by the more dominant males and it would lead to the sensitive males being killed or driven out of the early tribes where humans started living together. That still exists today. It doesn't necessarily mean death today, but it can still lead other men to excluding sensitive men from certain activities. It is a survival technique. Men are much more sensitive than they were thousands of years ago so just be happy that we're as sensitive as we are and take solace in knowing that your great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great granddaughters have an outside chance of having men that are sensitive and on the same emotional level that they are. +I'd now like to address some areas that will probably upset some of you. +It is very important for women to look good and smell good for their man or to a man that they are interested in. +Now a lot of women are probably yelling ""bullshit"" or ""that's not fair"" or something like that, but you need to listen and understand. There is a reason for it ladies...trust me. +Men are hunters. For thousands of years men had to stalk and kill their prey. To that end men developed as very visual and scent sensitive creatures. We had the eyes of an eagle and the nose of a bloodhound. Those traits are still present today even though the need to stalk and kill prey has passed. +Men have been bred for thousands of years to notice things visually and to notice scents. If the hunter isn't drawn to his prey visually or by smell he won't pursue it and he'll go hunting for something else. +Do you understand now why it is important to look and smell good for your man? +If you look appealing the hunter will take notice. If you smell good the hunter will take notice. +I'm not saying that you have to dress in super sexy clothes all the time or that you have to wear gallons and gallons of perfume all the time, but a certain level isn't too much to ask is it? After all your hunter chose you over all others...but the hunter is naturally nomadic...he has to be given a reason to stay and prey that is constantly attracting him visually and through scent will keep him in one place. +Many women HATE wearing lingerie, but you need to understand that you aren't wearing it for yourself. You're wearing it to catch the attention of your hunter. You're wearing it to stand out from the pack so that the hunter will pursue you above any other. The colors and the different textures of lingerie get the hunter's blood boiling and get him ready to go in for the kill...or in most cases with women...go in for some carnal pleasures. +When it comes to normal clothes I understand that comfort is an issue for everyone, but from time to time throw on the short low cut dress or the short shorts and the tight top. Catching the hunter's attention is very simple and the hunter does notice when his prey looks good. +Another topic to consider when discussing your appearance ladies is makeup. You don't have to wear it all the time, but putting some on when the hunter doesn't expect it doesn't go unnoticed. We've been bred for thousands of years to see red as a sign of health and fertility. So red lipstick, red nail polish, a red tint to some blush and you will look healthy and appealing to the hunter. +Now let's talk about scent. Everything comes scented these days. Shampoo, conditioner, lotion, deodorant, perfume...EVERYTHING. Most of you probably know this, but it is important to coordinate the scent that you have. If you have lavender body lotion don't use vanilla shampoo or whatever. Find your products in the same scent so that you put off one uniform scent instead of several blended scents. Blending scents cancels them out and the hunter loses interest. You might not think that your deodorant has a strong enough smell to be noticed through the smell of your shampoo, but we are hunters...we can detect tiny variations in scent. Ladies if you wear perfume make sure that it compliments the other scented products that you're using. Additionally...gauge the reaction of the hunter to your perfume. If he says he likes it keep wearing it. If you see any sign that he doesn't like it try to find one that he does. Even if everyone else hates it the important thing is that YOUR HUNTER likes it. +If the hunter has good looking good smelling prey he will stick around...he might even show you more often that he appreciates you. +Men are simple creatures ladies. You evolved to gather, nurture, and want emotional closeness. Men were evolved to use the senses of sight and smell to track down what they want. +If you look good and smell good your hunter will find you desirable. If you ever feel that your hunter's eyes are wandering throw on something sexy, slap on some red lipstick, make yourself smell great...and see what happens. If you do it right your hunter will club you over the head and drag you back to his cave...or maybe he'll drag you to your bedroom and ravage you the way that only your hunter can. +I hope this has helped you ladies to better understand your hunter. +Basically...we're stupid...treat us like we're stupid by attracting us with pretty colors and things that smell good. +Oh...I understand that this comes off as a little one sided ladies. +No I don't think there should be a double standard where women should look good and smell good for their man when the man can look bad and smell bad. Keeping your appearance and scent in a state that's desirable to your mate should be the goal for all people. +The truth is though ladies that when it comes to what women want we have very little understanding. We operate on a much simpler level than you do. +If men were a legal document they would have the subject headings and then one sentence that sums up the point of that subject. Women on the other hand would have the subject heading and then detailed descriptions of what the subject heading pertains to and all of the little nuances and special cases that pertain to the subject heading. +We have the basics...you have the details. +On behalf of all men I'm asking that you dumb things down for us ladies. +Instead of taking 45 minutes giving us every little detail about how you want us to dress just smack us in the back of the head to get our attention and say ""you need to start wearing nicer clothes"". That kind of thing might not work with other women, it may take the 45 minutes with them, but 6 short simple words are all that it takes with a man. We might not do anything about it, but at least we'll understand what you want. +Every man in a relationship with a woman has gone to his friends and something like ""We...or should I say SHE talked for an hour and a half yesterday and I have no idea what the hell we were talking about."" +Simple inputs ladies...that's all we ask. +I welcome a female response to this. +Just remember...I'm a simple minded hunter...so use simple direct language or I'll have no idea what the hell you're saying." +872,Understanding Your Man,ChaseQ,How To,2006-12-11,2006-12-11,2022-01-04 08:41:13,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/understanding-your-man,You don't have to look like a super model.,['Beautiful'],3.88,"The prevailing sentiment among women in today's world seems to be that men are clods only interested in where they are going to get their next piece of ass, their next beer or the next 'mommy' to clean up after them. +For the woman who truly wants to understand the man in their life or possibly for the female writer who would like to get out the stereotype writing of male characters and write on common male characteristics, here you go. +The first thing that comes to mind is that women think men are shallow. I am talking about appearance here. What woman hates to see the stick figured models on television or in store window posters as you walk through the mall simply because you know that your man will probably take notice? He's looking at that poster and not at you and it makes you angry and even hurts. +To begin with, your man is not trying to hurt you. Men like beautiful things, it's the way they're wired and that cannot be changed any more than a woman's natural tendancy to notice it. Women can berate and belittle their man for looking but all you will succeed at is pushing him away. +Women usually associate the don't have's to the do have's when comparing the woman their man is looking at to themselves. Thing's such as she had bigger/smaller boobs, she is thinner, her lips are fuller her hair is longer/shorter, her legs are longer/thinner, her butt is tighter, fuller, slimmer, her teeth are whiter... this list can go on because this is how women react in this situation. Ladies, take a breath. Do you want to know what the true difference is? +Put all of that other stuff out of your mind first. This is the big secret. She's fresh. She looks healthy. Before that shoot, before modeling, before walking out of her place these women took a lot of time getting ready and it shows. These women go through a cleaning ritual that shows through all of the makeup. They then apply their makeup for their look. Some heavy and trashy, some modest and elegant and so on. It's the look that works for them. +Put some time into yourself. Don't try to look like one of the many countless beauties that your man sees. Reinvent yourself. Find hair and makeup that accentuates your individual design. Buy new clothes that are appropriate for your age and the look you want. I know, it is easier said than done, but do some research, talk to the ladies at the cosmetics counter, talk to the sales people on the floor. You will be surprised how much you can learn here. +The one thing that is common to Pamela Anderson, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Christy Brinkley, Jennifer Lopez or pornstar Sophie Sweet, they all look smooth and clean, they look healthy and guess what? Guys like to look at them. +Have you ever seen these women nude or in tight clothes? Yes! They don't have cookie cutter bodies. Jennifer Lopez has small breasts and a huge butt as well as a small nose and thin hair. Does it matter? Hell no. Sophie Sweet has a killer butt, but... her breasts are tiny...doesn't matter either. Pam has huge breasts and a plastic surgery nightmare on her face, Britney has baby fat that pudges at her lower body, Lindsay has little more than a skeleton figure and Christie Brinkley is what?...Fifty years old? +Ladies, pluck a guy off of the street and ask him...'Hey average guy would you kick any of these women out of bed?' You know the answer to that. 'Hell Nooooo!' Fact is ladies, you are no different than these women are. We all have 'flaws'. It's all in the presentation and your guy can be as attracted to you as him and other guys are to these women. +Spend some time on yourself ladies. You don't have to be rich to do it. I guarantee you that your guy will be more than happy to have you spending money on yourself. Get a facial (full cleaning and makeup), get a massage and aroma therapy, get your hair done by a stylist and get yourself some new clothes. Not something J Lo is trying to sell you. Something that works for you. Look for pictures of women that have a similar build and shape that you like and use it. +It sounds stupid but when you do all of this, have one goal in mind...To feel as clean and fresh as that model or actress looks. +Your guy will be looking at you with new eyes, no matter what you think you look like. No one has anything on you. You've got to remember that not every guy wants or desires the aforementioned women. The media just tells you so because they want your money. You look the way you're supposed to look and that's perfection. +If you know that you would look great thin and fit then start by correcting the quick things like the way you present what you have now... and then hit the gym. If you truly want it you'll find a way to do it. Whatever path you take to get the look you want, your guy is going to be looking at these women and thinking 'She ain't got nothing mine doesn't have.' ... and you'll know it. +You'll be one of the women the guys at the mall are checking out... and your guy will notice that. +:)" +873,US English,lindiana,How To,2005-08-24,2005-12-25,2022-01-04 08:41:16,2,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/us-english-101-parts-of-a-sentence,1. Grammar made simple. 2. Grammar made simple: the third lesson.,"['Grammar', 'Writing']",3.81,"English 101 is brought to you by Lindiana, who holds her Bachelor of Science Degree in Secondary Education/English. +* +You can use two terms, _subject_ and _predicate_ , to describe most sentences. However, there are other names and functions of important sentence elements at your disposal. We will review those elements. +Subject and Predicate +A sentence consists of two basic parts: the _subject_ and the _predicate_. The subject of the sentence is that part of the sentence about which something is being said. The predicate of the sentence is that part of the sentence that says something about the subject. +These two parts of the sentence may consist of a single word or multiple words. The whole subject is then referred to as the _complete subject_ ; the whole predicate, the _complete predicate_. +The _simple subject_ of a sentence is the principal word or group of words in the subject. An example: A large body of students (the subject here is _a large body of students_ ; the simple subject; _students_ ) +The principal word or group of words in the predicate is called the _simple predicate_ , or the _verb_. An example: the writers planned a seminar (the predicate is _planned a seminar_ ; simple predicate, or verb: _planned_ ) +A _compound subject_ consists of two or more subjects that are joined by a conjunction and have the same verb. The usual connecting words are _and_ and _or_. +An example: The novelists and poets gathered in the conference room. (the compound subject: _the novelists and poets_ ) +A _compound verb_ consists of two or more verbs that are joined by a conjunction and have the same subject: An example: Annabelle picked up her books and left for school. ( _compound verb_ : _picked up...left_ ) +To find the subject of a sentence, first find the verb (simple predicate) or as we sometimes call it the action word. Then ask yourself the question ""Who or what?"" An example: The bell rang loudly through the school. First find the action... _rang_. Then ask yourself who or what rang. The answer is the _bell_. In addition to this simple formula for finding the subject, please keep in mind the following facts: +1.) In sentences expressing a command or request, the subject is always _you_ , even though the word _you_ may not appear. +2.) The subject of a sentence is never in a prepositional phrase. +(example: Neither of the children rode their bikes. The verb is _rode_. Who rode? _Neither_. Children is not the subject, it is part of the phrase _of the children_.) +3.) To find the subject in a question, turn the question into a statement form. +4.) _There_ and _here_ are not usually the subjects of a verb. +Complements +Some sentences express a complete thought by means of a subject and verb only. Most sentences, however, have in the predicate one or more words that complete the meaning of the subject and verb. These completing words are called complements. +Complements that receive or are affected by the action of the verb are called _objects._ There are two kinds of objects: the _direct object_ and the _indirect object_. The _direct object_ of the verb receives the action of the verb and shows the result of the action. It answers the question ""What?"" or ""Whom"" after an action verb. Except when it ends in _–self_ , the object of a verb never refers to the same person or thing as the subject. The _indirect object_ of the verb precedes the direct object and usually tells to whom or for whom the action of the verb is done. If the word _to_ or _for_ is used, the noun or pronoun following it is part of a prepositional phrase; it is not an indirect object. Like subjects, objects of verbs are never part of a prepositional phrase. +To complete their meaning, some action verbs require an additional complement following their objects. This additional complement is called an _objective complement_ because it refers to the object; it may be a noun or an adjective. +Complements that refer to or describe the subject are called _subject complements_. There are two kinds of _subject complements:_ the _predicate nominative_ and the _predicate adjective._ Subject complements follow linking verbs only. +The common linking verbs are all forms of the verb _be_ as well as the following: _become, seem, grow, appear, look, feel, smell, taste, remain, sound, stay._ +A _predicate nominative_ is a noun or pronoun complement that refers back to the same person or thing that is being referred to in the subject of the verb. It follows a linking verb. (Example: Washington DC is our capitol. Capitol refers to the subject Washington DC). +A _predicate adjective_ is an adjective complement that modifies or changes the subject of the verb. It also follows a linking verb. (Example: This article is dull. The predicate adjective _dull_ modifies the subject _article_.) In the normal order of an English sentence, complements follow the verb but there are always exceptions. +Summary +1.) Every sentence has two basic parts: the _subject_ and the _predicate._ +2.) Within the subject there is a _simple subject,_ commonly called the _subject_. +Within the predicate there is a _simple predicate_ , commonly called the _verb._ +3.) The pattern of some sentences consists of a subject and verb only. +4.) Modifiers may be added to the subject and verb without changing the basic pattern of the sentence. +5.) Certain additions to the predicate create new sentence patterns. These additions are called _complements_. +6.) _Complements_ complete the meaning begun by the subject and verb. +7.) Different kinds of _complements_ produce different sentence patterns. +8.) There are seven common sentence patterns: +a.) _subject, verb_ +(Example: Poets write.) +b.) _subject, verb, direct object_ +(Example: Poets write poems.) +c.) _subject, verb, indirect object, direct object_ +(Example: Poets write the audience poems.) +d.) _subject, verb, direct object, objective complement (adjective)_ +(Example: Poets write poems of joy.) +e.) _subject, verb, direct object, objective complement (noun)_ +(Example: They named her Mistress. +f.) _subject, verb, predicate nominative_ +(Example: She is Mistress.) +g.) _subject, verb, predicate adjective_ +(Example: She seems strict.) +* + _Reference: Warriner's English Grammar and Composition, Complete Course_ + +" +874,Use of a Grammar Checker,Timothy_Dickey,How To,2007-08-21,2007-08-21,2022-01-04 08:41:18,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/use-of-a-grammar-checker,Why a writer should consider using a grammar checker.,"['Grammar', 'Grammar Checker', 'Writing']",3.03,"**Why Every Writer Should Consider Using a Grammar Checker Before a Story Submission** +That is a question that I pondered on during the writing of my first story before this second submission. +Why should I? Do I really need it? +Other writers have friends, family, and editors to look over their manuscripts before submission. Will they need to use a Grammar Checker or not? +From reading many stories on here, it would not hurt for someone to make use of a Grammar Checker program. +A grammar program would go through and pick up the easy mistakes that a Spelling Checker missed. This type of program would make your work so much easier to read. +If you ask why I am bringing up this subject, the point is that not every Grammar Checker is the same. A Grammar Checker is a whole different animal than a Spell Checker. +When I suggest to other authors to think about using one who might be reading this document, does it mean their writing is bad? +No, a Grammar Checker will just make a writer's work easier and their stories stronger in style. +Does a Grammar Checker replace someone's Editor for proof reading your submissions before publishing? +No, a Grammar Checker helps your Editor find the big mistakes that a person might miss. A program like this will weed through all the common minor mistakes that Authors should have already caught from a proof read. A Grammar Checker also helps your Editor save time in getting back the manuscript to the Author for re-writing by finding what remains. You still have to proof read your work for your satisfaction. +What is the difference between a Spell Checker and a Grammar Checker? +A Spell Checker looks at the spelling of a word by comparing it to words found in a stored file on your computer. If the program cannot find the word in the file, the program list the closest words to it. The program then ask the author to select from the following word choices. The word might still be correct, but not listed as correct in the program file. There might be a file called a User Dictionary File that allows for the addition of new words by the user for future use. That is why a Dictionary is still handy to have for questionable words and later added to the computer spell Checker if possible. +A Grammar Checker reviews the structure of each sentence overall. The program looks at all parts of speech. The program tries to find if the sentence structures found are in a correct sentence location. +If a Grammar Checker is excellent, it looks at each sentence to figure out if a word is in proper used. +The following words listed are an example. +Hole, Whole. Right, Write. It's, Its. To, Too, Two. +Each of these words sound the same but defined and used differently. There are many more words found that are like this. Each of the words listed is a small selection to get the point across to you the reader. +This is a short example of what a good Grammar Checker would look for while looking over sentence structure and usage. +Are all Grammar Checkers the same? +No, all Grammar Checkers are different! I need to say why and to use my first story as an example of what a good Grammar Checker can do. +I found an Editor, who is also an author on here, and sent my editor a first draft copy. The editor sent it back telling me that it was not in the best condition for publishing. My Editor wanted a complete re-work of the story. The information sent was not enough to start and to solve all the problems in the story. I sent it back a month later by internet e-mail after using Microsoft Word Grammar Checker. This program did not find a mistake in my story from all my later corrections. I would later that day send it off by e-mail to my Editor. The Editor again said there were too many mistakes found to finish reading when sending it back. The Editor also mentioned that I needed to find another person to finish editing future submissions of my first story. The Editor had time constraints in buying a new house, moving and work. My Editor replied with an e-mail suggesting that I use a different Grammar Checker. This was after I wrote of what I had used before in my work. The Editor mentioned that Microsoft's Word was not the best used in finding common sentence mistakes. +I reloaded my story from the second submission into a Grammar program on my computer from 1990 called, ""Key -Grammar Checker."" I also borrowed another program to load up for use from a good friend. This other program was from 1992 and named, ""Right Writer - Version 5.0."" I wanted to find out if the number of errors found would be different in the two programs so a comparison could occur by me. I wanted to run it through Microsoft's Grammar Checker one more time afterward. I wanted to find out if any more listed errors were new for another comparison. My program found 540 grammar mistakes and the borrowed program found 593 grammar errors. Microsoft again did not find any new grammar boners after all the corrections. +I can comprehend why an Editor might pull some hair out when working with someone green to writing. It took me three weeks of my free time so I could correct all the errors that the borrowed program had found. I then had another two friends proof-read my story for another two more weeks before final submission before publishing. +If your wondering, I used the largest number of errors found from the borrowed program to correct by. I wanted a better story if possible. By correcting more of the errors found, would be better in my thinking than not correcting enough for my first time submission. +Are there other Grammar Programs that are better than what I used? +There very well could be, but I am using a 286 computer, running DOS 6.22 and Windows 3.0. My computer makes it impracticable to load one of the modern Grammar Checker programs. There is not enough extended board memory to run a modern program. I also do not have a large enough hard drive memory for storage of a modern program. Please do not laugh but my cell phone has more hard drive memory than this computer that I am using to write this submission. Only until I purchase a more modern machine will I have that chance to look for a better grammar checker computer program. For the time being, I can only decide with the limited choices in programs. I would love to find a newer grammar program and load it on one of the computers at my University. A Grammar Checker or any other user program loaded by a user on a University personal computer unit is illegal. I do not want load a user program at school so I can write a better than average story on this web site. +I have heard of students loading music programs on the school computers and later getting caught. This is the only reason I am promoting caution in saying not to do it if your thinking along that logic. If you do not own the computer your working at, do not load a program I am suggesting onto it. +You will get caught! +Not only is it more than likely prohibited for you, but you might load up a computer virus. Your action might cost you income for loading this type of computer program. The school or business might fine you for the time to remove it from their machine! +Now, you have an idea of what I went through and of the trials and hardships for my first story! If you are a beginning author and yet to submit a story, use a Grammar Checker with a Spell Checker program and help yourself out. If you are an established author with many stories to your credit, make your life easier. This type of program will give you extra time to make your fans happier. It will give you the capacity to produce even more stories faster by using a Grammar Checker with your Spell Checker. Your stories will be stronger in style and easier to read. +Your editor will thank you if you find and use a Grammar and Spell Checker programs. +I hope that this little article helped you in some way." +875,Using Literotica,Goldeniangel,How To,2006-02-21,2006-02-21,2022-01-04 08:41:19,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/using-literotica,A guide of the categories for potentially lost readers.,[''],4.68,"This fabulous website known as Literotica.com offers a plethora of reading material in many different categories. Therefore, despite attempts to make the site easy to use by putting the stories into specific categories, there always seem to be some readers who manage to get lost and find themselves reading a story that they REALLY don't like. Often they decide that because the subject matter of the story is something they oppose or don't like for themselves, they will then leave trashy comments and vote low on the story. Although this is a small percentage of the people using the site, I feel that they need to be acknowledged as well. +I want to help these poor lost souls, and so I'm going to describe most of the categories on the site and what you might expect to find in the stories there. +But first, one major point which many of said readers seem to miss, all stories on this site are fictional. They are designed to be fictional. Fictional means that authors are stretching reality, bending it as such, and often put characters into extreme circumstances. Although many of us attempt to create circumstances that COULD be real, of course they will not always correspond to everyone's life. It is the reader's job to make that stretch of imagination that these circumstances could happen. It's like a movie or a play or a book... you don't just have characters living every day life. SOMETHING HAPPENS to them, some kind of incident that thrusts them into a more exciting story than what happens to an everyday person. The same holds true for erotic stories... otherwise they wouldn't be interesting. +However, if that stretch of imagination is just too much for you, the more realistic categories should be to your liking - such as Erotic Couplings or Romance. Erotic Couplings means one on one, male and female sex. The characters are usually placed in realistic settings and circumstances, except that they really want to get it on. Stories in the romance section are often even more realistic, creating viable relationships between characters that sweetly swing towards consummation. +Also often realistic are Gay Male and the Lesbian Love stories. However, if you are not interested in homosexual stories, and they do not turn you on, I suggest you stay away from them. Reading them and then leaving comments such as ""This is sick, you are immoral"" does absolutely nothing to the author except make them wonder what idiot would read a story that they find so disgusting. And then they continue to write. Therefore, if you have no interest in homosexual sex or it does not turn you on, stay away from all stories that are labeled ""Gay Male"" or ""Lesbian Love"". +""Toys and Masturbation"" has many different tangents... some cross over into fantasy or science fiction, others stay firmly grounded in reality. However, they all have to do with masturbation or playing with toys. The majority of the stories do not involve two people, unless the two people are involved in mutual masturbation or using toys on each other. +Transexuals/Cross-dressers, Interracial Love and Loving Wives categories are all categories that hold reality for some of the population, but not for everyone. A Transexual is a person who has surgically changed their gender, either partially or all the way. A Cross-dresser is someone who has not surgically changed their gender, but only dresses as the opposite gender. If that does not sound appealing to you, stay away from those stories. Interracial Love and Loving Wives sometimes mix, many Loving Wives stories involve men who want to watch other men fuck their wives - a good number of the stories involve white men wanting to watch black men fuck their white wives. Not all of them of course, some Loving Wives stories center around wives who are just plain cheating without their husbands consent. However, if you find wives sleeping with other men - with or without their husband's consent - wrong in some way, DON'T READ THESE STORIES. You will not find a single one that you like, I promise. And no one cares if you don't like them, they just wonder - again - what idiot read an entire story that they found objectionable. The same holds true for Interracial Love. ALL of the Interracial Loves stories are stories of people of different skin color/race/ethnicity involving themselves in sexual relations. If you find this objectionable, READ A DIFFERENT CATEGORY. There are NO stories in the ""Interracial Love"" category that involves two people of the same race. I would go read a story in Erotic Couplings or Romance instead, although not all of those are Non-Interracial, you will find a greater majority than you would in the Interracial Love Category. +Stories found in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy Category or the Non-Human category are DEFINITELY not real. You will not find situations that any person living right now could realistically be in. Again, author's often try to make them possibly realistic, but only if the reader uses their imagination. +Erotic Horror and Non-Consent almost always involve violence and abuse. Erotic Horror often involves blood, pain, and occasionally death. Non-Consent means that one of the characters does not want what is happening to them, although often writers create a story-line where eventually the girl enjoys it. I will tell you something though, Literotica usually does not accept stories where the unwilling participant is completely abused and hates it. Those stories are considered too rough for the site, therefore if the writer is going to abuse its unwilling character, we pretty much HAVE to make them enjoy it. That is why most really rough Non-Consent stories mean that the abused character is going to love it. If you think that it is sick and wrong to rape women, or that stories portraying it are awful, stick to another category. Just about every other category is going to be consensual sex. +Anal stories are about anal sex. While some readers have noted that they think it is unrealistic to portray anal sex as enjoyable, please remember that is YOUR reality. Not everyone's. I have several essays in fact, about anal sex as well as ""How-To"" on enjoying anal sex. If you do not enjoy anal sex and you want to read a realistic story, read one in another category. Enjoying anal sex is real for some of us, but obviously not for all... but reading the story and commenting that women don't enjoy anal sex isn't true. YOU do not enjoy anal sex. And don't assume that all anal sex stories are written by men... I have to say, I'm rather tired of getting comments on my Gay Male and Anal Sex stories about how I'm another stupid man who thinks that anal sex is great and that women love it. Because actually, I'm a rather average woman who thinks that anal sex CAN be great. And I write Gay Male stories because they're a challenge for me, and so far a lot of people have enjoyed them. +Fetish and BDSM stories are often rough and rowdy. Fetish includes spanking, golden showers, enemas, fantasies, etc. It's a broad category that covers everything the rest of the categories don't. Please, read the story descriptions carefully so that you will know whether or not it's something you might be interested in. BDSM stories mean bondage, domination, submission, punishment... again, these stories are only realistic for a percentage of the population, but I assure you that for some people these stories are the total truth. They are not meant to uphold man's power over women or woman's power over men, they just describe the specific relationship between two characters. +Obviously, I haven't touched on all the categories. But I'm hoping that I've touched on most of the ones that get the worst comments by readers who are obviously in the wrong category from what they will enjoy. +Remember, we all have a right to write, just as you have a right to your opinion. But this is a website meant for pleasure and enjoyment, no one should try to shut down someone else's fantasy just because it isn't theirs. There are so many categories and stories, why should anyone need to insult someone's writing just because they're reading the wrong story? Find the ones that are to your liking and stick with them." +876,Using Soap as Punishment,susangreenway,How To,2018-08-16,2018-08-16,2022-01-04 08:41:20,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/using-soap-as-punishment,How to use soaping as an effective adjunct punishment.,"['Anus', 'Defecation', 'Figging', 'Labia', 'Mouth', 'Naughty Words', 'Penis', 'Scrotum', 'Soap Stick']",4.16,"Soap has long held a special place among the punishments imposed by mothers to punish misbehaving offspring of all ages. It also proves to be an excellent option for governesses who are responsible for disciplining charges of all ages. Here we are only considering its use with those who are 18 years or older. But as with many traditional nursery punishments, it becomes highly embarrassing when a disciplinarian—parent or governess—resorts to its use with adults who have been naughty. +There are two main types of soap punishment. One is insertion of a soap bar into the mouth, with the recipient required to retain the soap in his or her mouth for a specified or indefinite time. The second is insertion, usually of thin sticks of soap, of the soap anally. +Soap is most commonly employed as a punishment for use of unacceptable language, especially the two most heinous four-letter words. ""You need your mouth washed out"" is a frequently-uttered statement that precedes the punisher's imposing the punishment, usually in the mouth. +It is most effective if the disciplinarian first rubs the soap using hot water to work up a warm lather. Leaving as much of the lather on the soap bar as possible, the bar can then be inserted in the open mouth of the offender. It should be moved around within the mouth and then the bar should be left projecting from the mouth, with the offender being required to hold it in place with his or her teeth. +While the soap bar may be removed after a certain time, being required to hold the bar with the teeth while being spanked, for example, is a good ancillary punishment. Normally, the offender is warned that there will be severe consequences—possibly added punishment such as caning—if the soap bar is allowed to drop from the mouth. +When the soap bar is removed, the offender should not be allowed to rinse for a further period of time. This means that the lather will remain in the mouth and the punishment in effect will continue since the harsh taste of the soap will remain until a mouth-rinsing is permitted. +Soap punishment is highly embarrassing because it is associated with juvenile discipline. The second form—anal insertion—is especially shameful because it exposes the private parts to view of anyone who has been permitted to observe the punishment. The offender may be bent over or on a chair and ordered to hold his or her bottom cheeks open. +This position will focus attention on the male or female genitalia as well as the anus itself, which few enjoy having others see. Insertion should be done slowly, both to prolong the exposure and to make it easier to get the soap stick into the rectum. Care needs to be taken not to jab it in as there is a danger of piercing the rectal walls. If a thin stick of soap has been cut from the bar, it can be inserted much as a rectal thermometer. +By inserting slowly, the anal ring will be lubricated by the soap and it will be easier to get the entire stick inside. Leaving it sticking out will cause more embarrassment but also may lead to the offender's excreting or expelling the soap stick before it is time for it to be removed. +This makes the use of a soap stick inserted anally different from figging, which involves inserting a carved stick of ginger anally. The ginger must be carved to remove the rough skin and also to prepare the ginger so that the warmth of the rectum will stimulate the release of juices from the ginger that will sting internally. The soap stick, if prepared by floating it in a small bowl of warm water, will be warm enough to sting the inner walls without further preparation. +The ginger stick is also inserted with a significant length—at least two inches—left protruding from the anus. This is done to allow easy extraction of the ginger. The soap stick may be removed by use of fingers or instructing the offender to excrete the soap stick by simulating the effort to excrete a bowel movement. +Psychologically, use of soap serves to embarrass the offender by focusing attention on his or her use of a naughty word or words. The punishment is almost always accompanied by scolding along the lines of ""I must wash your naughty mouth out with soap to stop you from using such bad words"" and anal insertion naturally relates to the dirtiest part of the body. +Mouth soaping is both uncomfortable and creates a very unpleasant taste in the mouth of the offender. Anal insertion of soap results in a stinging sensation inside the anus which should have a salutary effect on encouraging avoidance of bad language. A frequent side effect of anal soaping is stimulation of the bowel, resulting in an imminent need to pass a bowel movement. +The mother or governess may respond to pleas for toilet access by summarily telling the offender that he or she will have to wait and ""hold it in"" and to emphasize denial of immediate toilet access, it is useful and very discouraging to the offender to order him or her to pull up his or her undershorts or panties. +Should the offender be unable to exercise control over his or her bowels, it will be even more embarrassing if he or she defecates into the shorts or panties. Extra punishment may be in order for this failure, of course, and many disciplinarians would opt for spanking the miscreant over the bulging shorts or panties. +Alternatively, the offender may be required to remove underclothing so that any failure to hold it in will result in everyone watching the punishment seeing the bowel movement emerge from the anus and fall to the floor. +Because of the juvenile associations with soap used as a punishment, it is especially shame-inducing when some sort of role reversal is involved. A parent may have uttered one of the bad words and the son or daughter will use this as the pretext for soaping the offender's mouth or, less frequently, imposing anal insertion. +Disciplinarians who make use of soaping as an ancillary punishment may opt to have the soap on display which the soap sticks have been cut and are placed in warm water. Seeing the soap and realizing that it will be readily available should the offender curse or use a naughty word will increase the tension which will normally pervade the punishment scene. +Often mouth soaping is specified as the punishment for a first offense of cursing or bad language. The disciplinarian should be prepared at the time the forbidden words are uttered to order the offender to accompany the punisher to the nearby bathroom or kitchen where the soap bar may be run under hot water so that a lather can be worked up. Often observers are surprised and impressed when the disciplinarian and offender return with the soap bar sticking out of the offender's mouth. +Preparation of several soap sticks and having them available in a bowl of water will allow them to be utilized for second and subsequent offenses. The offender should be warned that this will be the punishment if he or she curses or uses a bad word after the first time. Fear of the stinging that will result from anal insertion of the soap is likely to cause prolonged pleading and apologizing immediately after the offender says the naughty word. +It will be important for the disciplinarian to deny such appeals as the punishment will only be effective if the offender learns that it will be imposed immediately after any offense of this kind. In addition to the two well-known four-letter words, use of slang words associated with the male or female genitalia other than the anatomically correct terms of penis and vagina (or vulva or scrotum, far less commonly spoken) should be treated in the same manner as would be uttering the four-letter words. +Although use of soaping as punishment will result in very unpleasant taste in the mouth that will linger for some time after removal of the soap bar and even after rinsing is allowed, and stinging inside the anus will also persist after removal of a soap stick, there appear to be no lasting bad effects of use of soap in these ways. +Some disciplinarians opt for another alternative to use of soap for punishment—an ointment such as oil of wintergreen or Ben-Gay or even toothpaste may be lightly rubbed on the female labia or the male penis or scrotum, or on or in the anus of either sex. This administration will also cause a stinging sensation comparable to the use of soap in this manner. To ensure continued impact of the administration, the offender may be required to pull up his undershorts or her panties. +The proficient governess or disciplinarian will recognize that the use of soap is quite effective, is without lasting effects, and serves to intensify punishment such as castigation with hand, strap, paddle, or cane. Usually the person being punished will react to being told they will be soaped in either way by pleading for remission and promising good behavior. He or she may argue that this child's punishment is inappropriate for an adult. The punisher should respond that when the offender behaves like a naughty child, this kind of punishment is entirely proper." +877,Using Toilet Restriction to Punish,lesliejones,How To,2011-12-18,2011-12-18,2022-01-04 08:41:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/using-toilet-restriction-to-punish,A guide to a humiliating disciplinary tool.,"['Defecation', 'Diapers', 'Embarrassment', 'Feminization', 'Humiliation', 'Menstrual', 'Panties', 'Potty', 'Toilet', 'Urination']",4.28,"_[This guide discusses bodily functions in a tasteful manner but those offended by them should read no further.]_ +For Jen and Megs, who do understand +Many dominants do not employ toilet restriction as a disciplinary tool but those who do recognize its effectiveness in changing behavior of submissives for the better. In some circles it may even be derided as a ""ladies' punishment"" because it does not involve any kind of hitting or striking as corporal punishment does. +Nevertheless, in view of the extreme embarrassment and outright humiliation that restriction of toilet use may produce, it is a useful punishment mechanism that belongs in every dominant's repertoire. Other objections to its use may involve either squeamishness or outright dislike of anything involving products of bodily functions. While these feelings are understandable, I hope this article shows those considering use of toilet restriction that their own involvement with and certainly contact with the objectionable substances, viz., feces, urine, and menstrual fluid, may be minimized or avoided altogether. +Required: Willing Submissive. First, it must be understood that toilet restriction is a punishment only suitable for submissives who will obey orders. It is much more effective when a sub knows and accepts that he or she must not even enter the bathroom, although they are not physically restrained, than where the bathroom must be locked or the sub placed under restraint. Enforcing this punishment for subs who will either resist or seek to circumvent its impact will prove frustrating for the dominant; if the sub is likely to engage in any of these avoidance behaviors, further training in submission is clearly advisable before engaging in use of toilet restriction. +Levels of restriction. Second, there are different levels of restriction. The most lenient is merely setting specific times when toilet use will be permitted or specifying a set number of times per day that the submissive may use the toilet. This punitive level may be increased by limiting the number of times such use is permitted to a very few times each day, such as once in the morning, once at midday and once in the evening. Setting specific times, such as 7, 12, and 8 increases the intensity as well, because the submissive may not need to use the toilet at those times but now will realize that he or she has lost the chance to do so for several more hours. +Restrict not prohibit. When the number of times toilet use is allowed is drastically limited, for example, to twice or less per day, the dominant should appreciate that this level is close to ensuring that the submissive will fail to control his or her functions. There is a psychological impact of failing to conform to a severe regimen such as being limited to using the toilet to twice a day or to two specific times, such as 8 in the morning and 8 at night (as before, the latter is more severe). I suggest that this level of punishment has a greater psychological impact that merely telling the submissive that they have lost all privileges of using the toilet. This last level of course guarantees failure and thus may result in the submissive's feeling less trepidation than if he or she fails to retain the bodily function products until the permitted use or time. +Uncertainty. Another refinement is not to specify how many times a day or at what times toilet use will be allowed but to require the submissive to request permission each time he or she needs to use the toilet. This adds a desirable degree of uncertainty to the situation and the submissive will only be thinking of how long he or she will be made to wait and if they will be able to hold off having an accident. Experienced dominants will likely respond to initial requests with rather offhanded denials, such as ""This isn't a convenient time"" or ""I think you need to wait until you really need to use the toilet."" +Observation. Still another refinement is to require the dominant to accompany the submissive to the bathroom and for the dominant then to observe the submissive's use of the toilet. This embarrasses most submissives and may even make it difficult for them to use the toilet; women, in particular, may be very ashamed and find it difficult to let their urine stream to begin. With regard to male submissives, women dominants especially often require males to use the seated position to urinate, as this implies that they are being subjected to a degree of feminization; this also has another less-frequently observed effect in that men have more difficulty emptying their bladders when urinating in the seated position so may find they need to use the toilet again sooner. Both sexes are likely to be highly embarrassed by the dominant's observing defecation. Submissives have told me that this act is regarded as more intimate and private than even intercourse. +Clothing adjustment. Yet another refinement—one can see that this punishment has many variations and versions—involves requiring the wearing of special clothing that will affect use of the toilet. Male submissive may be made to wear tight panties or other constricting feminine garments, or pantyhose, that will require more time to pull down or remove prior to using the toilet. Similarly, women forced to wear slacks rather than skirts may take longer to unzip or unbutton them than they do to lift their skirts and pull their panties down quickly. Taking longer to adjust clothing before using the toilet is also when the submissive is likely to encounter a kind of ""urge incontinence"" in that the mental processes connected with urination or defecation begin to go into high gear faster than the submissive is capable of freeing himself or herself from the tight or different clothing. This may result in the submissive's releasing urine before he or she has actually lowered panties or undershorts, for example. +Intimate inspections. As a further punishment or humiliation, some dominants, primarily women, will require the submissive to wear a pantiliner in the crotch of the panties or undershorts. The liner is likely to display any urine or feces released by the submissive prior to receiving permission to use the toilet or while adjusting clothing to do so. It will also show wet stains produced by excitement of the female or male genitalia. +Dominants may intensify the punishment by requiring the submissive at any time to lower pants or lift skirts and then to lower panties or undershorts so that the dominant may inspect the liner to see if it has been soiled. Detection of stains or any soiling may be followed to inspection of the vulva, penis, or anus. Such inspection is obviously easier and more embarrassing for women since insertion of fingers, gloved or ungloved, may be the operative method. But men are also likely to be embarrassed when they develop erections when female dominants are inspecting their private parts. +Retention. Two other variations of this punishment feature forced retention, as when an enema is administered and the submissive is made to retain it, whether plugged or not, and when anal insertion of a suppository such as a glycerin one speeds the need for defecation. It would seem that use of enemas is a different punishment topic but denial of permission to use the toilet after insertion of the anal suppository appears to be a variation on toilet restriction. +Diapers. The dominant must also decide whether to administer this punishment while having the submissive wear normal clothing, the kinds of restrictive and feminine garments mentioned earlier, or actual diapers and plastic pants. Requiring the wearing of diapers does signal to the submissive that failure is quite likely and may even diminish the fear of an accident although the sheer embarrassment of being put into diapers is highly embarrassing. Some dominants, again usually mistresses, institute a graduated system of underclothing, where a submissive may be reduced to diapers, and gradually promoted based on good behavior to wearing little girl panties, then very brief panties, full-sized panties, and, if male, male underwear. +Changing. Mistresses who employ diaper discipline usually do not shrink from using the changing table and its accoutrements when necessary. This does involve closer contact with the bodily products than some might wish, so they are cautioned that for submissives, being changed is horribly humiliating but the process will likely mean the dominant must deal with the contents of the diaper. +Spanking after accidents. Post-accident punishment is also an alternative for dominants. Mistresses especially sometimes enjoy taking the submissive who has filled his or her panties over the dominant's lap where a spanking right over the shameful bulge may press it down and increase the humiliation felt by the submissive's having already failed to retain his or her bodily products. +Public display—use of the corner. In a similar fashion, exhibiting the submissive who has had an accident by forcing him or her to stand in the corner, optimally with filled and bulging panties on display, adds more embarrassment. Visiting dominants are likely to make cutting comments while observing the submissive such as ""Well, it looks like this young lady needs more toilet training."" +Making men both wear panties and then display them bulging with their bodily products surely is likely to curb the poor attitudes of the most arrogant male who is being subjected to this punishment. It should be added that submissives should not be left wearing soiled and filled underclothing for lengthy periods so as to avoid irritation and infection. This is an important health-related caution and should be scrupulously followed. Thus post-accident punishment must be promptly administered or display made in short order. +Sometimes being forced to wear diapers or especially humiliating panties may even subject submissives to embarrassment when gathered with other submissives at a party or other get-together. A dominant may ask all those wearing diapers to so identify themselves—often causing their faces to redden. Those men wearing panties may also be singled out for attention. With women, deprivation of wearing panties at all usually results in similar humiliation when they are called out in a group and made to expose their pantiless privates. +Potty use. Another related feature of toilet restriction may involve requiring the submissive to squat on a child's plastic or wooden potty to do their business. Dominants usually have the potty visible in the living room so that all are on notice that one or more submissives may be required to use the potty n front of everyone. Men are humbled by yet another situation in which they are required to sit down like a woman to urinate and both sexes, when performing either function, are likely to expose their frontal genitalia to all present. Usually the submissive is required to remove the potty for emptying and cleaning after use, mostly because the dominant and certainly guests will not find the continuing smell after use to be pleasant. +Providing toilet service to dominants is another related punishment but the motivations and considerations are sufficiently different to suggest that it is more appropriate for a separate discussion. +The menstrual taboo. Restricting menstruating women's use of feminine hygiene products, however, is yet another kind of toilet restriction. Male dominants engaging in this punishment may find that female dominants resent male intrusion into this quintessentially feminine activity, but women submissives often recognize the high degree of humiliation they feel when a male dominant restricts their use of pads or tampons. They have spent their whole life, after all, keeping their menstrual period secret from men. Breaking this taboo can be itself a highly powerful disciplinary tactic. +Women dominants are likely to employ this punishment more particularly. They may require the female submissive to use a less absorbent tampon than she normally wears or allow her only a small pantiliner when her flow normally requires her to wear a large thick maxipad. Again, having the male or female dominant observe the menstruating submissive in the act of changing her tampon or pad is itself a major humiliation. Even the announcement by the dominant to other dominants or submissives that a female submissive is having her period is a punishment in terms of embarrassment. +Interruption of functions. Somewhat related to this is a practice used in my experience largely by dommes, which is literal restriction of urination or defecation by ordering the male or female submissive to start or stop the process. Dominant women I know may delight in allowing a submissive to start urinating and then just when, especially a woman, has managed to start the stream, suddenly say or shout ""Stop."" This is very frustrating and often difficult for the submissive to obey. +Obviously, sanctions for failure to stop urinating immediately are part of this punishment. I have been told that one of the homoerotic practices in Army basic training is telling soldiers being trained that when they hear the call for a formation while they are on the toilet and in the process of defecating, that they must ""cut it off"" (viz., the bowel movement) and pull up their uniform trousers to hurry to the lineup. +Final comments. As noted earlier, one aspect of toilet restriction is an inevitable need for someone to clean the mess up, but obviously this is the responsibility and the added shame of the submissive. On the whole, many of the features and refinements of toilet restriction as a punishment involve a broad swath of humiliating techniques, and include aspects of feminization and infantilization. +The sheer surprise and consequent embarrassment that occurs when a dominant interferes with a submissive's use of the toilet for normal bodily functions can clearly be utilized by the skillful dominant to produce improved behavior. Few submissives will not pay more attention to complying with rules set by their dominants when threatened with toilet restriction and its many variations and refinements. +Insightful dominants may wish to consider using toilet restriction because punishments such as spanking, caning, flogging, strapping, and the like all involve physical castigation and can only be employed so often. While it is humiliating to be taken across a dominant's lap for a spanking, just the fear that a dominant may follow through on a threat to impose toilet restriction at any level may well exceed the impact of the other punishments. +I would certainly rank the impact of a dominant's saying ""Your use of the toilet is going to be restricted"" with ""You have behaved badly and are going to be caned."" Both inspire fear, albeit of different kinds, but the former also carries with it the prospect of certain embarrassment and humiliation." +878,Using Your Own Method,Keixbra,How To,2006-10-28,2006-10-28,2022-01-04 08:41:21,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/using-your-own-method,Have you tried it all & none of it worked?

But if you truly want to try something that will always work, you have to try your own way. I was reading things on ""How to give Ultimate Head"" or ""How to make a Woman Scream in the Middle of Passion"" but when I read it, they made me laugh slightly. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm glad that these people had the courage to get up and talk about how THEY got THEIR girlfriend/boyfriend to have the best orgasm of their life, but I don't enjoy the fact that these people are trying to push it on US to do it. (Not all, and sorry if you are one of the few that don't) +When I was studying Hypnosis, and when I finally accomplished it, they were nothing alike. My way was very calming, like normal, but it didn't involve the focus of anything like a red dot, a watch, or anything of that kind. When I have phone sex with my friends it yields overpowering results, but it is MY way of doing it and nobody else's. +When I touch my girlfriends arm I am light and gentle at times, but rough at others. She is mostly into Rough but she enjoys gentle the most because she has never had a boyfriend that was gentle. When I held her and whispered in her ear sweet things, she smiled and laughed at my jokes because it was something that she hadn't had before. So hearing things on this site about ""How to make your woman feel appreciated"" does not work at all if your wife/girlfriend is constantly being treated gentle, and gets even more gentle... I've never met a woman would wants ONLY gentle. +Or, ""How to fuck like a horse."" True, a woman can often have her brains fucked out and enjoy every second of it, and be treated worse every time (using needles and blades for BDSM purposes) but I once had a girlfriend that loved to be choked during sex, loved cutting and scrapping herself with her nails. Then one day, I fucked her slowly, gently rocking my hips and she said that it was the most sensual moment of her life and she passed out after the sex (even though it was so slow she wasn't use to it and it was overwhelming.) +So, these ""How to"" folders truly aren't that helpful to a lot of people because they are trying to increase what their lady is already used to. +In truth, this is in the ""How to"" section because of my How To. +If you truly want to have the most sensual and sexual experience of your life, don't base what you do off of just ONE thing. If your girlfriend/wife loves it wild and hard then try going slow or Vice-Versa. +But in truth, don't take anyone's advice. Allow yourself to do what YOU think is right, not what everyone says is right. +When I say this I really am not trying to say that everybody is a perfect lover when they first start. In truth I am still a virgin and I have only had phone sex with a couple of good friends and a few girlfriends. I truly don't know if I am going to be a GREAT lover, but according to what my friends have said I will be. The way I was able to make these girls have orgasms is because I am a perverted person and I read up on positions and other types of things that I could possibly have these girls do. +I have sacrificed my own sexual need in order to make these girls so happy but I don't mind. I have a feeling I am just one of the few men that don't gain pleasure from masturbation. But instead I give girls advice and edge them on to do things that they wouldn't normally do. I have one friend in particular that has had sex with quite a few men and they have all left her sore, but she says that her strongest orgasm had come from when me and her had had phone sex a long time ago. +I am saying that instead of trying to take something and use it because it is convenient you should instead take something and look at it and look at your lover and try to find a way to use it and whatever you lover might like and make the best way to have your lover scream. So these ""How to"" files can help you, but they shouldn't give specific directions on what you should do. +For instance, if your girlfriend or wife enjoys to be tied up and you read something that makes you smirk in an evil way so you decide to try it, but when you do she doesn't like it as much. Try to implement whatever you wanted to do with her being tied up. Such as the feel of coldness against ones nipples. Of course if you feel cold you are going to shiver and try to warm yourself up but if she is tied up she will not have that opportunity and instead will have to deal with it while you bite and nibble on her neck, maybe afterwards applying some sort of heat source against her nipple, or vice- versa. +As I have said quite a few times.

There is nothing more uncomfortable (and painful) than a dry finger roughly rubbed across a woman's clitoris or pushed inside. In most cases, proper foreplay stimulating a woman's erogenous zones will usually avoid the problem of dryness. Nevertheless, it never hurts to keep a ""tube of lube"" sitting nearby. +Most women masturbate by rubbing a finger or two over their clitoris, sometimes ""through"" the skin of their inner or outer lips, in a circular or back-and-forth motion. +Labial Massage +Place a well lubricated hand over her labia, fingers pointing towards her anus. Pull up toward the navel and alternate hands. Explore the inner and outer lips with your fingers. Pull gently on one lip and then the other.

This trick will make them take longer to reach their orgasm, but they will likely have a much stronger, more powerful orgasm when they finally do. +Push Here to Start +Gently insert one finger deeply into her vagina and, when she's ready, insert a second. Then take your thumb and place it against her anus (Don't insert it). Press against her anus while you move your fingers inside her vagina. +Tap Dancing +Place the palm of your hand on her mons (the mound where her pubic hair is), and rest your fingers lightly on her vaginal lips. Rest your thumb on her thigh. Lightly but firmly press your palm onto her mons and begin to move your hand in a tiny circular motion. Your palm should not slide too much over her skin during this process. Rather, her skin should move underneath it. Repeat this process until you have done ten circles. You then raise your fingers and lightly tap her vaginal lips about once a second until you have given her ten taps. After giving the taps, rest your hand for five to ten seconds. Then repeat the whole routine over and over. +Cervix Clock +A woman's cervix can usually be found in the upper rear part of her vagina. The cervix feels like a little dome of tissue, and may also have a small cleft in the middle, like your chin. Carefully stimulate the area surrounding the cervix.

Experiment by applying different kinds of pressure with the top hand while fingers from your other hand are inside her vagina. +Imitations +An excellent way to learn more about pleasing your partner is to rest your fingers over hers while she is masturbating herself. Then do the reverse, with her fingers acting as guides for your own. +Off the Edge +Another form of genital massage can be done by holding a lubricated vaginal lip between your thumb and forefinger. While squeezing just a little, pull your fingers straight away from the woman's body. Your fingers will end up in the air an inch or two above her body.

Place the lip between your thumb and forefinger, clasping it at the base where it attaches to the main part of the woman's body.

Thank you for reading, and enjoy!_ +There are many people who have never heard of fisting, or have no idea what is really involved. There are two types of fisting, vaginal and anal, this article is focused on vaginal fisting. First off, I would like to bust the biggest myth about fisting. It is NOT true that your partner must be ""well used"", or ""worn out"" in order to insert your fist. +The human vagina is incredibly resilient, and muscle tone allows women to give birth, but also to tighten down enough to grasp a finger. A word of caution, the skin of the vaginal lips, as well as the interior skin is very sensitive, and prone to small tears, unless caution (and patience) is used, infection can occur with these tears. Things will go smoothly if both partners are patient, and some simple precautions are observed. First, it is important for the fister to thoroughly wash his or her hands. It is also helpful if the fistee is shaved, or at least trimmed of pubic hair. The fister must also make sure that the fingernails are trimmed, and have no ragged edges. +Another important factor is lubrication. I recommend a water soluble lubricant like KY jelly, or the generic equivalent. Astroglide may work for you, but for my taste it is not as kind to the skin while it is being stretched. How much lube do you use? Well, when you think you have enough, use more. I have at times, used half a tube. It can get messy, so use plenty of towels. Messy sex can be the best kind anyway, so use the lube liberally. The application of the lube can be integrated into the foreplay. I sometimes find that giving my girlfriend one or more orgasms before fisting really helps things along. Of course, before you can get your hand in there, you've got to get your fingers in there first. After the third finger, you begin to get to that ""stretch zone"". +Ladies, at this point, the stretching can feel like a slight burning, or stinging sensation, but plenty of lube eases that. During the insertion of finger number four, you have to pay close attention to your partners reactions, she will let you know when something is uncomfortable. If that happens, don't get discouraged, your first time may take a while, and patience is the key. Remember, this is an extremely intimate act and can be amazing when done between two people who care about each other, and rushing things can result in more than physical injury, it can damage the relationship. Once you have reached the stage where you have four well lubricated fingers inside, you may want to take a break and let her adjust to that new feeling of fullness. During the entire process, words of encouragement can do wonders to help her relax. After all, if she is not enjoying herself, what's the point? +Once she is comfortable with four fingers, you may press on till your palm is inside. Another pause to let her adjust, and keep up the words of encouragement! Remember, even if your partner has had children, she is not used to something that big going IN. Once she has adjusted to your palm, begin to move your hand, SLOWLY AND GENTLY to help stretch the skin for what comes next. I have found that the vagina tends to have more room to give at the bottom, near the perineum. +Now comes the real challenge! Tuck your thumb into the palm of your hand, and begin to SLOWLY, but firmly push. As you progress, begin to fold your fingers into the shape of a fist. When you reach the widest part of your hand, near your knuckles, you will find that things are getting somewhat tight. This is the point where she may REALLY tense up, and the risk of tearing the skin increases dramatically. It may be the point where she decides not to go through with it after all, or it may be time for a rest break. Remember, even though you are the one working to get your hand inside, she is having to work just as hard to relax and adjust, so she will be just as tired, if not more so than you. +Again, PATIENCE! If you are ready to proceed at this point, keep in mind that she still needs those encouraging words, now more than ever. After you have passed the widest point, you may be tempted by enthusiasm to just slam it home. BAD IDEA! Just allow your hand to slide naturally into place. Her vagina will tend to lock down on your wrist and sometimes actually draw your hand the rest of the way in. Once you have reached the wrist, it is time for another pause. She will sometimes have a extreme reaction. Some women may actually have an orgasm at this point, others just may be paralyzed in a state of awe that you got that huge hand of yours in there to begin with. Again, PATIENCE! Be sure that you are still well lubed, hand and wrist. KY type lube will gunk up when exposed to air for long periods, so make sure that a fresh layer is applied every now and then. +Ladies, once your partners' hand is all the way inside you, you'll find that you have the urge to urinate, so it is usually a good idea to empty your bladder before you start, unless you are both really into watersports. And do not worry about telling your partner when enough is enough, give them directions, how to move their hand, how fast, how slow, how much, etc. Guys, no matter how much she likes your sense of humor, crude remarks or jokes are definitely NOT a good idea. Remember, the vagina is more muscle than anything else, and one good squeeze could injure your hand. A little movement can go a long way, there is no need for you to get carried away at first and just start ramming your arm in and out. +If you are patient and take the time to let her build up, (usually after several orgasms) she may lose control and tell you just to fuck the shit out of her with your hand. Guys, you HAVE to LISTEN to your woman, you may be getting a charge out of this, but this is ultimately for HER pleasure! Another big no-no is the sudden removal of your hand. It wasn't easy to get in there, and therefore should be removed with care, again, pay attention to her reactions, know when to slow down, or take a break. And talk to her, let her know you're there. In summary, if done with care, consideration, and yes, PATIENCE, fisting can be a wonderful sexual outlet for you both. Please remember that this activity may not be for everyone, this is one of those things that can really turn ugly, if the issue is forced. +Good Luck and Happy Fisting, Ya'll +I would like to thank my ""research assistant"" (wink wink,nudge nudge) Jasmine1969" +881,Valentine's Day English Lady's Way,English Lady,How To,2004-02-04,2004-02-04,2022-01-04 08:41:24,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/valentines-day-english-ladys-way,Valentine's Day gift ideas for your sweetie.,"['Enhance Experience', 'Erotic Story', 'Give Lover', 'Love Letter', 'Make Leave', 'Small Fortune', 'Spell Checker', 'Word Spell', 'Wrapping Paper', 'Write Love']",4.12,"Are you completely sick of forking out a small fortune every Valentines Day buying over priced flowers, cards and chocolates?

That way you can write out your card and send it there and then meaning there's no last minute panic to find, write and send an Ecard on Valentine's Day itself. Lets face it there's so many better things to be doing and your dearly beloved is not going to be impressed with you sitting on the net and swearing at the computer for hours on the sexiest day of the year! +And I guarantee you'll find the card your looking for on one of those three sites or your money back! (waits for people to realise they're free) +Record a Special CD or tape. +This is a classic! Everyone loves music and every couple has at least a handful of songs that remind them of each other. Copy these from your existing CD's or tapes onto a new one, maybe adding a little voice message if you can manage that and voila! A thoughtful and meaningful collection of music that cost you the price of a blank cassette or CD. Much better than some commercial collection that you have to shell out a small fortune for right? +To make this even more special decorate the cover. It doesn't have to be a masterpiece, just a few different colours to write your lovers name and you've added that little extra touch that shows how much time and care you've put into pleasing them. +Please note! Make sure the songs you record will be enjoyed by your lover! If their taste is different to yours make sure you cater for that. Don't add something you know they will hate as this could possibly ruin the whole collection! If you really want to add a song that you're not 100% sure would normally be your lover's cup of tea well the put it right near the end so they can skip it easier, especially if you're recording a cassette tape. +Write a love letter. +For this you might need to purchase some nice looking writing paper or a blank card but if you shop around you can buy good looking paper/greeting cards very reasonably! My top tip is to check in markets as they often have the best prices and a large selection. Don't wander into a large chain store type shop unless you can afford to pay that bit more as you will just get frustrated when you look through all the lovely cards and you realise you can't afford them. +When choosing a pen to write your love letter with make sure it is full of ink and isn't going to run out on you at any moment! Writing in colour is always sweet but bear in mind that poison pen letters are often written in red and it can be seen as quite an angry and harsh colour. Make sure it is comfortable for you to write with and don't try using a cartridge pen if you're used to a ballpoint. It might sound romantic in theory but a letter covered in ink blots is not that sexy. Try scribbling on a spare piece of paper to check your pen is OK then you're ready to write! +When you sit down to write your letter be in a relaxed state of mind. It might help to have a photo of your lover or some other memento to look at for inspiration. Don't force it just write how you feel. It doesn't need to be Shakespearian in its grandness; the whole idea of a love letter is that it comes from the heart. If all you want to write is ""I love you with all my heart"" then that's all you need to write. If you are more inclined to go on for a few pages then do so. Write as much or as little as feels right. +Content wise try to keep to your own words. If you quote someone else, give them credit for it. It is not going to impress your dearly beloved if they find the heartfelt letter they received was actually composed by some dead guy to his wife several centuries before! Again I stress the most important point; a love letter is from the heart. Be sincere and true to your feelings and give your lover something they can keep to remind them of you. +Ladies, if you fancy adding a little squirt of perfume to your letter then feel free but please spray the letter from arms length as you do not want to knock your lover out with potent perfume fumes as he opens his letter! +Create a picture frame. +There are several ways you can interpret this. You can either make a collage of pictures and images to put in a shop bought frame for your lover, creating a personal love collage for them or you can take one picture you really like of you and your lover together and create a frame to put round it. Really I guess it's a case of what you can afford to do! +A frame is pretty simple to put together, 2 pieces of cardboard around an inch bigger than your picture, cover them both in wrapping paper, securing the paper with lots of glue. +Then cut out a hole in one piece of card just slightly smaller than your picture. Please make sure you can see the photo properly and that it is fairly well centred. I leave it to you as to how precise you want to be! +Stick your photo in place(the easiest way to do this is to stick your photo to the back piece, check it is in the right position several times before you secure it though!) then stick the frame together and there you have it! Simply attach a piece of sting or wire to the top of your picture in a hoop so it can be hung on the wall and it's done. +Some artistic inclination is needed for this option; if it sounds too complex to you then I suggest you opt for a less arty option to show your love this year! +Make a scrap book! +All you need is an exercise book OR several pieces of paper hole punched and strung together. Once you have your book decorate the front and back cover in anyway you like! Collage images form newspapers and magazines over it, use stickers or wrapping paper or just draw. This is your present to your lover; you decide what you want to do with it. +The contents can be whatever you want too. Photos, love letters, famous (and relevant) love quotes, pictures you've drawn, a page of graffiti all based around the ""I luv u"" variety you used to cover your books in at school, poetry... the list goes on. +I made one for my husband when we were first together. In mine I added a few pages of love quotes form various Terry Pratchett books because we are both big Discworld fans, I put in a few quotes from songs that reminded me off him and some pictures, a graffiti page and I wrote an introduction page. It took me a long time but I was well pleased with it when I finished and my husband still has it now. +Fill your book with what you know your lover will love and you just can't go wrong! +WARNING! +This option can be time consuming, especially if you decide to do a lot of drawing and writing yourself. Make sure you start it a while before you need to present it as a gift, you don't want to have to rush it to be able to present it in time do you? +Ok hold onto your hats folks now we're getting into the sexy adult suggestions...give your lover something sextra special this year! +Vouchers +No, I'm not talking gift vouchers for your local department store I am talking sexy love vouchers. Hundreds of Ecard sites have these online, you can even find them to print out online too or you can simply type or write your own. +All it has to be is a slip of paper which gives details of a treat your lover can claim from you. They can range from the cute and practical to the seriously sexy and can be redeemed whenever your partner feels like it. +Voucher suggestions: +*An hour long all over body massage. +*Butterfly kisses to be placed wherever your lover wants them! +*A meal cooked by you and the washing up done by you too. +*A night of passion! +*Acting out a kinky fantasy of their choosing. +You can be as saucy as you like and you can give as many different vouchers as you like! A cute little extra to slip inside the valentine card you send to your love. +Sexy Lotto. +This idea is a step up from the last. It involves the same kind of vouchers but this time you write lots of them, suitable for both you and your partner to carry out. You place some of these vouchers in a hat or a pot or a bowl (fold them up especially if they're going in a see through container) and then take it in turns to draw out a piece of paper then carry out that action on/to or for your lover! +Similar suggestions as before apply but you can get a bit more explicit this time! +*perform oral sex on partner for 10 minutes. +*Give your partner 10 spanks to the bare bottom. +*kiss your partner for 5 minutes anywhere but on the lips. +*Do a slow sexy strip to the music of your choice. +*Tell your lover a fantasy of yours in explicit detail. +See I told you! This suggestion can be as sexual as you like. Add things you and your partner will feel comfortable doing, you do not want to embarrass them after all, you want to get them horny baby yeah! (Oops dropped into Austin Power Mode there!) +Make sure you have some time to yourself for this. You don't want children/flatmates walking in on you whilst playing this game! Also you want to feel totally relaxed and comfortable; worrying about keeping the noise down in case mother hears will not enhance the experience! +Sexy Photos! +This will work best if your love is at work on Valentines Day or somewhere other than in the house with you. Take some sexy photographs of yourself with a digital camera. They can be as graphic as you like. Please remember though if you're sending them to your partner whilst he/she is at work that he/she could get into trouble for looking at very explicit photos in the workplace! All they need to do is titillate. A picture of you in some seriously sexy lingerie (hey I'm talking to you too boys!) or just a picture of your lips or a shot of your cleavage or your ""bulge"" inside your jeans. Get creative and take a shot you know will get your lover erm, ""interested"". +Then send your picture via email to your loved one. This is fairly easy to do! If you have outlook express when you create a new mail you will see two little arrows at the top right of your message. Click this and you'll see ""attach"" in the drop down menu again click this and you will be able to select your picture from your hard-drive. Once you have done this click ""attach"" and voila! Your sexy pic is attached to the Email. +If you have a web based account like hotmail, when you create a new message you should see an ""attach"" link somewhere above the email message itself. Click this and it will show a long box with a button saying ""browse"" next to it. Click ""Browse"" to find your picture on your hard-drive then click ""attach"" or ""ok"" and this attachment will then be added onto your email. +If you're not sure about this try sending an attachment to yourself first to check it works! +Now you have your picture ready to send you need to think of a suitable titillating subject line and message text. +A simple ""Happy Valentines Day"" will suffice, I am sure the picture will then speak for itself BUT be as creative as you like! Or if you really want to mess with their minds just send a typical chatty email and have your sexy picture attached, cheeky and fun and who knows? You might get spanked for it later! +Write him/her an erotic story. +This is another time consuming option. Even the shortest of sexual fantasy stories is going to take you a few hours to write and edit. Make sure you leave yourself plenty of time for completion before Valentines Day! +You do not need to be the best at fiction writing for this option. You can write a full on erotic story with created characters and scenes if you like but what is probably going to be more touching is writing out a personal fantasy involving yourself and your partner. +You can simply write it as if you're telling them what you will do to them later. +""When you get in from work you see me disappearing up the stairs in nothing but my black lacy French knickers....."" +Or as if you're telling a fantasy that really happened. +""I let my hand crack down upon your bottom and saw the cheek begin to pinken."" +Or you could write it as if you are the narrator telling a story. +""Tommy and Susie we're in love. They met in the park to feed the ducks but ended up naked in the bushes together."" +The best advice I can give you though is just write. Take your inspiration and run with it. Write and write and write till you stop. THEN you can go back and edit your work. I definitely recommend typing your story as apposed to writing it. Writing is very time consuming especially with the editing process added in. Typing onto a computer however makes this process much easier. +Top tips for typing out your story! +*If you have Word use it! The spell check facility is fantastic. If not use word pad and find an online spell checker to check it with. (http://www.spellcheck.net/ is a good one and it's free!) +*SAVE SAVE SAVE! Save your work after every paragraph or so just in case your computer crashes or gets switched off. It could happen and you don't want your whole story disappearing in one go! +*Write your story then leave it. The longer the better really. Editing is much easier to do when you come to your story fresh as you are more likely to pick up on mistakes. +*Don't rely on your spell checker to pick up everything! If you have made a typo that just happens to be a real word then the spell checker won't pick up on it! So check through your work yourself. +When your story is complete it is often helpful to read it out loud to check it reads well! Once it is done email it to your lover or print it out. I am sure they will be more than pleased with their own personalised sexy story. I have written several for my husband and I can verify he was very impressed! +Give your lover a massage. +This has got to be one of the nicest things anyone can receive. A full body massage. You do not necessarily need an expensive massage oil to do this there are several cheaper options that work just as well. Baby oil or baby moisturising lotion works well as it stays wet for a long time whilst you rub it into your lover's skin. +If you don't have a baby or baby products get yourself some cheap moisturising body cream. In this case the cheaper the better! Expensive products absorb into the skin quickly, you don't want this as you'll be forever applying more cream. Cheaper ones tend to be oilier and stay on top of the skin longer. Check the smell though before purchasing as you don't want to be massaging with a lotion you don't like the smell of! I would say go for something with cocoa butter in it as these smell like vanilla mostly and this is a pleasant and mild scent. +To enhance the experience massage in a candle lit room, especially if your lover is a bit self conscious about his or her body. The bedroom is a good place to carry out a massage as the bed is comfy to lie on. Make sure your partner is comfortable before you begin your massage! If you are using oil you may want to lie down towels over your bed clothes but that is up to you. +Mood making music playing softly in the background will help; make sure you choose something sexy if you're expecting things to get raunchy after the massage! Playing something soft and relaxing my end up in your lover falling asleep. +My husband has a problem when he massages me; he gets distracted by my bottom. Oh yes it is nice for my bottom to receive some attention but if I am promised a massage I'd like the rest of me massaged please too! To stop this distraction you can drape a towel over the distracting area whilst you work on your lover's neck, shoulders and back. Then start off from the feet and up the legs and you will end up at the distracting bit when both of you are warmed up enough to well, be distracted! +Lover Buffet! +This is an idea which will take some preparation and time but I assure you will be well worth it! +You will be the plate for your lover to eat his/her buffet from. All you need to do is be naked, reclining on the sofa or the bed with plates of food lying around you. I suggest you use an old sheet or some old towel to lie on so that the food does not stain whatever it is you are lying on. +A typical sweet buffet could consist of: +Strawberries, bananas, chocolate bars (to insert inside places as well as lie on top of your flesh) peaches, whipped cream, ice cream, jam, yoghurt (to smother all over your body) honey, syrup, chocolate sauce, raspberry sauce (to dribble all over), sprinkles, chocolate chips, dried fruit (to sprinkle over to give a change in texture to the food all over you) and whatever else you can think of that your lover would like to lick off your body! +If your lover hasn't got such a sweet tooth you could try a more savoury approach: +Soft cheese, peanut butter, pate (to spread on your body!) sausages, whole cucumber (insertion!),tomato ketchup, Mayonnaise (in squeezy bottles for drizzling all over) and nuts, croutons and bacon bits for that added crunch! +Whatever you chose do not put a lot out, you do not want to make your lover feel sick! Cater to his or her tastes, if you think they would prefer just one thing or say a simple variety of fruit (maybe your partner is on a diet!) then just put those out. The experience should be enjoyable for both parties so if you don't think you'd enjoy having a cucumber inserted anywhere don't put it in your food selection! +Showering/ bathing afterwards will be an integral part of this experience too I think! +Oh a special note for fella's...pineapple rings... need I say more? +This would work best if your lover can let themselves in and find you all ready and raring to go. Do not plan to do this when you know the postman might arrive or your mother might pop over! If you place yourself up in the bedroom make sure you leave a note instructing your lover to where you are. Nothing would be worse than lying in wait for your partner and for them not to come searching for you but to settle down in front of the television instead! +I really hope this list has inspired you to do something special for your loved one this year. I would love to hear of any experiences people have using my ideas so send me a comment or put a note in my guestbook! Also if you think up a different idea inspired by this list let me know, I want idea's to surprise my husband with this year!" +882,Valuing Books,oggbashan,How To,2015-02-21,2015-02-21,2022-01-04 08:41:25,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/valuing-books,Does your book have a value?,"['Edition', 'First Edition', 'Incunabla', 'Old Book', 'Printing']",4.62,"**Oggbashan's Advice: Is this book valuable?** +This was written for charity shops selling books in the UK but can have some application elsewhere. +A secondhand book has NO value unless somebody wants to buy it. +1\. Books that have NO value +Readers' Digest Condensed Books and Mills and Boon paperbacks can soon swamp the largest shop. There are buyers for pristine Mills and Boon at but they can take up space better used for other books. +A book may be a pristine first edition signed by the author but if the book is unreadable or just plain bad no one will want it even at 10p. +Obsolete reference books are the worst. Last year's law books however impressive looking do not have a market except as furniture. A ready reckoner for pre-decimal currency is just waste paper. +Text books lose value as soon as they are superseded and don't regain any value until they are old enough to be quaint. +Battered children's books are useless. +Out-of-date factual children's books, unless old enough to be of historic interest, should be rejected. +2\. Books that have a standard value +Clean paperbacks and modern dust-wrappered hardbacks can be priced at a basic rate of currently 50p each or three for £1. +3\. Books that might be worth more +Some books are obviously valuable, for example large detailed Art books about a specific artist, profusely illustrated and academic. Even so, the condition is important. If the book has lost its dustwrapper, or is stained or internally damaged, it will have lost some of its value. The most expensive books can still be valuable even when damaged. +3.1 Valuable paperbacks. +There are very few valuable paperbacks. The early Ian Fleming's James Bond books, such as Casino Royale, are very expensive in hardback, so the paperback firsts are valuable. That is partly because of the artwork on the cover but mainly because the James Bond franchise still produces films. While Bond films continue to be made, Bond books will be valuable. A good condition paperback first of Casino Royale should sell for £25 to £50. +Early Penguin paperbacks, the ones with three equal size bands, have a value IF they are first edition Penguins and it are in good or sound condition. Depending on their rarity/desirability early Penguin Firsts in good condition could be £3-£5 each. However Penguin has produced modern replicas of their first books and they have no real value. +Collectors' paperbacks are spin-offs from films or TV series e.g. Dr Who. They have value, not as books, but as collectable items that fit the theme. Some rare ones can have considerable value BUT fashions change quickly. What was collectable a couple of years ago can be valueless now e.g. Teenage Ninja Turtles. +Science Fiction paperbacks by popular authors, particularly US printings, can be valuable. +1950s/60s paperbacks such as Pan, Panther, can have a value because of the cover artwork. Again the condition is important. Value can be £2-£25. +Earlier paperbacks, Hodder and Stoughton Yellowbacks, Victorian ""shockers"", garishly covered novels etc. do have a value as curiosities. In excellent condition could be £30. Sound condition? £10. +The only paperbacks that have a significant value are the 19th Century partworks that were the genuine First Editions of Dickens' novels. A complete set of the loose parts of one of Dickens' novels could be worth hundreds of pounds -- but beware -- The University of Kent at Canterbury produced a reprint of the six parts of Edwin Drood in the 1970s. That reprint is worth £8-£10. +3.2 Old Books +Any book older than 1800 has a greater value than a standard book. +Any book older than 1700 should have a value of at least £25. +Any book older than 1600 should have a value of at least £100. +Any book older than 1500, or even a single page of such a book, is classed as an ""Incunabule"", plural ""Incunabula"" and should be on an international register of such books/pages. Any found should have been recorded with details of the previous owner(s) and the source because unknown incunabula need to have a provenance. +19th Century books, that is ones printed between 1800 and 1899 can be valuable but many from the later part of the century are just reprints of earlier works. For example Defoe's Robinson Crusoe in a late 19th Century edition could be valuable if it was originally an expensive book perhaps with many illustrations or worthless if a cheap reprint that is difficult to read. +4\. Dating books. +The date of a book is usually shown on the title page or on the back of the title page. In very old books or many Reader's Digest Books it is shown on the back page. +Some dates are shown in Roman numerals. +M = 1000; D = 500; C= 100; L= 50; XL = 40; LXXXX = 90 +X = 10; IX = 9; VIII = 8; VII = 7; VI = 6; V = 5; IV = 4 +III = 3 ; II = 2 ; I = 1 +But 9 may be shown as VIIII ; 40 as XXXX ; 90 as XC. +Some examples: +MDCCCLVIII = 1858 +MMV = 2005 +MDCCCXCXLV = 1895 +Accurately dating a book can be difficult and can require knowledge. +A book may state ""First published 1897"" but could be a 1950s reprint. +A book may state ""First edition thus 1950"" but could just be a cheap edition of a much earlier book. +A book may state ""First published in the UK 1960"" but the original first edition was published in the US in 1955. +5\. First Editions +Some books never have more than a first edition and may never be valuable because the author is incompetent or unreadable. +Some first editions are produced in such quantities that they are no more valuable than another edition e.g. second and subsequent Harry Potter books. +A few first editions by otherwise collectable authors can have little value e.g Lawrence Durell's TUNC and Ernest Hemingway's second book. Both books were unlike their other books and were, and are, unpopular. +Some first editions by authors you have heard of aren't as valuable as you might think. Rudyard Kipling is one. He is sometimes in favour, sometimes out of favour. A Kipling first edition printed in the UK is probably worth no more than £8 to £10. Many first editions are worth less than the modern paperback reprint. Buying books as an investment requires very careful judgement. +Modern publishers, and some older publishers, have made the task of finding out whether a book is a first edition very complicated. +Modern Firsts +For example: Many books say ""First published 1987"" but underneath, or on the back of the title page is a list of numbers like these: +135798642 or 123456789 or even 31 33 35 37 39 38 36 34 32 30 or 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 +As the book is reprinted a number will be dropped from the sequence so a book with the numbers +57986 is actually the FIFTH edition or FIFTH printing. +With 3456789 is the THIRD edition or THIRD printing. +The books with numbers in the 30s are from the THIRTIETH edition. +Older Firsts +Anything that says 10th thousand; 30th thousand -- is NOT a first edition. +Even apparently identical books can be true first editions, or later states of the first edition. One of Charles Dickens' Christmas Stories ""The Haunted Man"" has four states of the First edition. They can be told apart by the address of the publishers, which changed, and by a misprint on one page of the REAL first. The value of each is different. +The usual order of priority of book states is: +Any edition dedicated by the author to someone related to the book's origin e.g. Ian Fleming's Thunderball dedicated to the Golf Professional at Royal St George's golf course thanking him for help with the golf scenes. That is valuable even in battered condition. +\- 1st Edition in dustwrapper signed by author +\- 1st Edition in dustwrapper +\- 1st Edition without dustwrapper +\- 1st Illustrated Edition +\- Any edition signed by author +\- Other publishers edition after 1st in dustwrapper +\- Paperback +\- Any edition without dustwrapper. +\- Book Club Edition in dustwrapper +\- Book Club edition without dustwrapper +BUT condition is important - a battered 1st may be unsaleable while a clean Book Club Edition could be acceptable. +6\. Book Buyers +6.1 Most people who buy books buy them to read. +Seems a statement of the obvious? It is true for most of the people who will come into a book shop. If they are not buying books to read themselves they might be buying for a friend or relation to read. Probably 90% of those coming into a bookshop are buying books to be read. +6.2 People who buy First Editions don't always read them +A First Edition has value because it is a First Edition and its value depends on its condition. An ideal First Edition has a perfect dustwrapper around a perfect book and has never been read. Reading a First Edition would devalue it by opening the pages and loosening the spine. A First Edition is an object to be appreciated, NOT a book to be read. If the First Edition owner wants to read that book, they would probably already own a later edition or a cheap paperback reprint. +6.3 People buy books as status symbols +Coffee table books and expensive Art Books are often bought to display, not to read. They are items of furniture to give the impression that the owner is cultured and up-market. +Old leather-bound books can be bought as decoration, to furnish a room. There is a picture of the Duke of Windsor in his Paris apartment after the Abdication, posed against a wall of books. The photograph is so clear that the book titles can be read. The books are obviously arranged by size, not subject, and have expensive bindings but are titles such as ""The Transactions of the Society of Accountants 1927-8"" next to four volumes of the Bible in French and bound copies of The National Geographic. The size and bindings match but there is no other logic to the arrangement of books. +The same thing can often been seen when people are interviewed on television. Behind them is a wall of books to show how erudite they are. Some of those interviewed are in front of their own collection so the books are sorted by class and type. Others just have a random selection of books just for their looks as wall decoration. +7\. Book Condition +There are several ways of describing a book's condition. They don't matter unless you are selling over the internet. A buyer walking into your shop can be expected to judge the book's condition themselves. +However if there are faults in the book that might not be visible to someone picking the book up it is a good idea to write (with a 2B pencil) some comment such as ""Page 23 torn""; ""scribbling on page 42"" or at worst ""As Is"" which means with all its faults. +Here is a list of normal conventions for book condition. The book is described first then, after a /, the dustwrapper if present. +Mint/Mint -- As delivered by the publisher and not handled. This state is very unusual +Fine/Fine -- As it would appear when new on the new bookseller's shelf +Very Good/Very Good -- shows slight signs of being opened and read +Good/Good -- Most secondhand booksellers won't stock anything worse than this unless the book is rare. The book and dustwrapper show signs of wear and the book has obviously been read many times. +Fair/Fair or Reading Copy -- A sound edition of the book, complete without loss or major damage. +Hospital Copy -- a book only suitable for rebinding or to combine with another copy to make one sound complete copy for example by using the plates. However some hospital copies can be MORE valuable than a better copy if the plates are worth framing. There is a book about Walmer and Deal that has 14 pictures/plates in it. As a complete book it is worth about £100. If it is a hospital copy that no one would mind pulling apart, 12 of the 14 plates can be sold at £30 to £40 each unmounted! +The older the book, the more latitude is allowed on the condition description. Any book more than 50 years old that looks nearly new could be valuable because few books survive like that. +8\. What you should look out for +8.1 Hardbacks with good dustwrappers +Any hardback before 1975 that has a good dustwrapper needs a second look. Any before 1960 should be put aside to check with your local expert or on-line. Any 1st edition with dustwrapper before 1975 probably has a value. +8.2 Expensive books +Any book that was obviously expensive when new should be examined. The quality of the binding, printing and/or illustration might make it valuable. +8.3 The ""different"" book clubs +Crime Club was often the first edition for detective novelists such as Agatha Christie. Her early Crime Club novels can be VERY valuable. +Folio Society: The average Folio Society book in good condition ,particularly in its slipcase, is worth at least £8. Some early ones are worth far more. IF you ever see their printed book collection which comes in a case containing loose sheets from old books you have made a reasonable win on the lottery at £500 plus. +8.4 Specialist Transport/Maritime Books +A picture book about steam trains in general isn't worth much. The more obscure the railway subject, the more valuable the book tends to be so ""Private Owner Wagons on the Barry Railway in the 1920s"" could be worth checking. Maritime/Shipping are similar. The history of the Royal Navy isn't valuable unless early. A book about Battle-class destroyers could be. Edward Heath's Sailing isn't valuable. It is said that an unsigned copy is rarer than one signed by him. +8.5 Art Books +Art books work like transport. Scholarly illustrated books on a single artist, particularly if produced for a major retrospective of the artist's work, can be from 10 to 100 pounds. Coffee table books with smallish pictures are just normal stock. Catalogues for Sales of a single artist's work can be valuable -- or not -- it depends on the illustrations and the competence of the text. +8.6 Older books +Any book printed (not originally published but printed) before 1900 deserves a second look. A cheap reprint of a classic in poor condition might be worth less than a modern paperback but any book that is typical of its age, or a product of its age, could have value. +Anything printed before 1850 is likely to have a value simply because of its age, apart from the author's name or title. +8.7 Foreign language +It can be very difficult to value a book printed in a foreign language particularly if you can't understand a word of it. Remember that some languages such as Japanese, Chinese, Hebrew and Arabic start at the back, not what we think is the front. There might be a few English words on the title page. +9\.

The person who just _screams_ vanilla. +You talk about Sex, they say, ""I've done that."" +You talk about anal sex, and they say, ""That's an exit hole only. If anyone puts anything in there I'll cut it off."" +You ask why, and they just say: "" _Because_."" +""Gays and Lesbians should be shot, Bisexuals are worse because they can't even pick a side."" +""Water sports are water-polo, swimming, or waterskiing. Anything else isn't healthy."" +If you even think about being with someone else other than your spouse you are a ""male chauvinistic pig"" or a ""slut"". If you are actually with someone else, then you ""obviously don't really love your partner"". +Questions about any variation of sex other than their ideal scenario of a man and woman copulating in the missionary position only receives you scorn, and you become treated like some lesser deviant creature. +These are the thought patterns and stereotypes of a closed minded individual. +It may happen that you fall in love with someone like this. +They say that Love is blind, but it can also be deaf and dumb, and a little bit sick in the head too. +So you get bored, of the ""same old, same old"" routine in the bedroom. +You've read various things on Lit, and you know that there is a bigger world out there, and you're curious... but the love of your life isn't. +So what do you do? Dump them and move on? +Not if you really love them. It may not be possible, or at least not yet. +This is what I propose: +Don't try to change them. It never works anyways. +It really is true that people can only change if they want to. +But you _can_ open their eyes to other possibilities, and then let them choose for themselves. + **Step #1: Lose the mental conditioning.** +People are taught from a very early age, about what is right and wrong. +How to behave and what the rules are. +This is done quite simply because you are too young to be able to reason for yourself. Your experience is too limited. +This is a good thing. +It helps prevent children from burning their faces off on a hot stove top burner. Because, ""Wow, it looks really bright when you get close to it ... OWWWWW!!!!!"" immediately followed by a trip to the hospital, and years of plastic surgery is never a good thing. +However, there comes a time when people become adults, and they have to think for themselves. +""When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: But when I became a man, I put away childish things."" +Step one is to help your loved ones realize that they get to decide what _they_ want to do. +This can be really tricky, and means that you have to know your partner really well. +If the person is rational, a philosophical debate can do wonders. +If they aren't you're going to have to prove them wrong about at least one of their hard and fast beliefs. This can introduce doubt, and will hopefully force a person to re-inspect some of their other beliefs. +Be very careful here though. Move slowly and cautiously. +It's not nice to rip away someone's view of reality, and not be there to hold their hand while they try and figure out what they are supposed to believe in again. +Causing someone to question their beliefs will be an incredibly personal thing, and if you don't know your partner well enough there's no point in doing it. It'd be much better to have your partner help you ""Question your own beliefs"". Self discovery can be contagious if shared. + **Step #2: Analyze your partner carefully.** +Take a good hard look at fetishes, and see what it is about them that gets the person off. (Lit has BILLIONS of examples) +Then take a look at your partner for similar qualities. +Are they hard on themselves and seek to punish themselves? +(Masochists in their most basic form) +In times of stress are they comforted by cuddling? +(Bondage anyone?) +Are they whores for praise? +(Exhibitionism?) +Are they a giving, nurturing person? or are they demanding? +(Dominance / Submissive roles -often the opposite of what is most commonly demanded of them on a daily basis) +Once you can see the beginnings in your partner, you will have some idea as to what new experiences will best net some results. +And the **Better** your partner gets off on the first attempts, the better any subsequent new things will be received. + **Step #3: Once you think you know what you're going after, become an expert on it.** +It's true that you can only learn so much from reading, and eventually you have to try it ""hands on"", but you can avoid most of the major pitfalls through some preparation, and you can find out about safe and unsafe behavior first. +PLAYING SAFE IS MOST IMPORTANT. +If someone gets hurt playtime is over, and they'll almost certainly never want to even attempt to do it again. + **Step #4: Start Small and Innocent.** +Rome wasn't built in a day, nor was a kink-filled relationship. +So start small, and start innocent, then work your way up to your goal. +Case #1 +The goal: ""I want to spank my G/F, and to have her enjoy it, as much as I enjoy spanking her"". +Set the stage, and prepare. +Make sure that your partner is in a receptive mood to try something new. The day they have been yelled at all day at work, and have nearly lost their job is not the time for this. +However, after having a good evening out, maybe a drink to loosen them up, and when good times have been had by all is ideal. Sexual tension is definitely going to make things easier. + _Ensure that your lover is turned on_. +Next, make sure that you ""work it into the moment"". Sudden things out of context, will instantly snap a person out of whatever fun they may have been having, and put them on guard. +So, jokingly (and flirtingly) point out some little thing that they have done wrong. Maybe they forgot to pick something trivial up from the store. Maybe they knocked something over. It really doesn't matter so long as your lover knows that it was trivial, and that you're not really serious. +Now is your big chance to ""punish them"". Go lightly, even if they are enjoying it. +Especially go lightly if they _are_ enjoying it, to be more of a tease. +Mix it up with something else at the same time that you know turns them on; maybe some fondling or the likes. +Push the boundaries when your partner is distracted. The key to this step is to teach your lover that they can feel good while doing it, that it is fun, and also that you're playing. +Again, take baby steps. If you rush this stage you can cause emotional scarring, and may forever lose one of the ways that you had learned to satisfy your partner. + _ALWAYS_ make sure that the new fetish you're introducing is but a ""little side thing"" you're doing, and not the main thing your partner's focusing on. That can come later, if they decide that they enjoy it, but now is definitely not the time. +Try to give your partner a way out. +This is more then just a safety word. Give your partner a way to hide their emotion, or any shame that they may feel at the pleasure they're receiving. They may feel that what is happening is wrong on some mental level, even though their pleasure may be intense, and feel really bad about sharing their reactions to this new found pleasure until they get their attitudes straightened out again. +Give your partner the chance to be shy about their reactions. Also if possible, help them to feel less self conscious. +Blindfolds can be wonderful, so long as you use them in the early beginning steps. Often if someone doesn't see what's happening and they're already caught up in something very stimulating, they may not be able to recognize the new source of stimulation. +Showering in the dark with your partner can also be a wonderful example of this. You can ""help"" them get clean, in much more intimate ways then they might otherwise allow. Once your partner is comfortable with this, and the lights are still out, you can always check to see if they're clean. +Once you have your partner open to one ""deviant behavior"" the rest becomes easy. Start showing them how some other people can enjoy ""deviant behavior"" too. +One of my favorite methods is to show the person soft-core fetish stories; those which just barely dabble in the desired fetish, but where the person thoroughly enjoys themselves without any guilt or remorse. It helps to reinforce to your partner that this sort of behavior can be ok. +You just add it to the mix very slowly as you go. +Want to try anal sex? Try playing with your partner's ass while you are +""doing more then your part"" in a 69 position. Again start small, and ensure that there are positive reactions from your administrations. +Play on the outside of her anus gently. Stroke it. +MAKE SURE SHE GETS OFF. +Don't stick a finger up her ass thinking she won't notice. +She will; and given where her mouth is, you'd likely find out as SOON AS SHE DID! + **Step #5: Know when to stop.** +You can teach an old dog new tricks. +But you can't teach it _all_ the tricks. +Your partner may become open to learning some new things. +They may be completely against learning some others. +Often there may be trauma of some sort behind these ones that they get stuck on. +Delve into that in a gentle way if you wish, but it may be difficult. +Counseling may help as well, or not as the case may be. +The trick is to not push the issue too far, or it WILL cost you the relationship. And if you're not ready for that, then it's best to not poke that sleeping dog any harder, but maybe dangle the piece of string over the resting cat next to it. +Move on and try another fetish carefully. +There's plenty more to choose from. +Remember, this will be a growing and learning experience for both you and your partner(s) and will take a lot of work and effort. It may take you 6 months before your partner comes to understand that they are getting pleasure from the most miniscule ""deviant"" play and that it's ok. +This is still tremendous progress. +Remember you're fighting against a lifetime of conditioning, and that won't happen over night, but can happen over time. +Keep your stick on the ice, play safe, and never toy with people." +884,Very Well Done: A Guide to Offering Constructive Criticism,Cinner,How To,2012-12-22,2012-12-22,2022-01-04 08:41:29,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/very-well-done-a-guide-to-offering- constructive-criticism,How to give good literary critique.,"['Constructive Criticism', 'Criticism', 'Feedback', 'Jamaica', 'Literary Critique', 'Non-Erotic', 'Self-Development']",4.91,"The Toastmasters have a way of offering constructive criticism that I endorse fully. They call it their sandwich approach, and in it, they let their developing speech-maker know about something that (s)he did well, then they speak about the areas needing improvement, and then they close their remarks with another word of praise about an area of strength upon which the budding speech-maker can build as (s)he moves onward to new heights. Not surprisingly, this method of helping colleagues to improve is highly effective, and so I want to recommend to everyone that we all try to adopt this means of communicating with each other; not just when we leave ""constructive"" feedback about the stories that we read here on Literotica, but also in life generally since I think that there are benefits to be derived from this way of operating. +Can you imagine something as radical as this in your communication with your spouse or significant other; with your boss or your peer or your assistant; with your child? Wouldn't you enjoy it if your clients did this with you? Can't you imagine how your service providers would feel if you tried to be polite to them, even if you were making a return, or a lodging a protest about some disappointment in your dealings with them? This is not the stuff of fantasy, but it would be fantastic, wouldn't it? +So, you might ask, what if there is really nothing to praise in the piece that I have just read? How do I find something positive to say about that? What do I do if something really needs to be said about the shoddy way in which the piece has been slapped together, without any attempt at editing or developing characterisation or plot, without any regard for grammar or spelling? Are you suggesting that I be a hypocrite and say something nice? Saying nothing is not an option for me, Cinner... +Alright, I grant you that sometimes, you may feel that the work is truly poorly presented, and you cannot do as I do, and just move on to the next story or essay. You might do what I have done where I see some potential though; and you might send a private feedback message to the author with your comments; beginning with the good that is there, even if that is only a line about their bravery in putting their work into the public domain for general scrutiny. That is something positive. There are many more persons here, talented people who visit Literotica daily, but who are afraid to allow their voices to be heard, than there are people who have taken the risk of airing their deepest thoughts and darkest secret yearnings in their stories and poems; and so even if this is the only positive thing that you can find to say about their work, then you might want to start, and perhaps, if necessary, end with that as well. +Of course, after telling the person what (s)he has done well, one does need to deliver the bad news, but even here there might be some ground rules that would help the person. The first thing that I would recommend is that you be specific about what you want to see from the person to whom you are directing your remarks. I know that for me, the person who told me that I shifted point of view in my stories did more for me than the one who told me that my stories were rubbish. The man who praised the standard of my editing of my own work has caused me to re-read my stories just that one extra time before sending them off, since I don't want to disappoint him in the future. To be sure, I still get it wrong sometimes, but, again, because of this generous-minded person I have become a better writer. +The second thing that I would recommend is that you try to give a little of yourself in your comments. Again, the person who told me that my poem Birthday was ""gripping and disturbing but profound"" conveyed much in these few words, as did the person who told me that the ""cheating and blackmail was a real turn off. please (sic) keep the garbage out of the incest area"" for Soren and his Sisters. In truth, because of that second, more negative comment, I have tried to be more sensitive and respectful of the feelings of others in my writing, not only for incest stories that I write myself, but also for those that I have been asked to read and critique, and for all of the other areas of human sexuality to which I do not subscribe personally, and so do not have an intimate understanding of the emotions attached to these situations. As harsh as that was to hear, I have learned from it, and hopefully, if this person bothers to read my third ""incest and taboo"" entry in this year's Survivor Contest (s)he will be more satisfied. +Finally, it has been a suspicion of mine for some time, that some of the anonymous comments that I read are really from fellow authors here on Lit who feel that they don't want to say something to me lest I, or the other author to whom they have directed their remarks, take them in the wrong way. I can't speak for everyone, but one thing that I can say is that usually the more profound the comment, the more that I would like to get further clarification, or to discuss the technique change being recommended, with the commentator. Leaving no return Lit ID name or e-mail address on a comment in my contact box or leaving a vague, anonymous comment is frustrating if I really need just five minutes more of your time. So, I'd like to urge those of you who really are not members of Literotica to consider becoming members so that we can all have more access to each other's ideas. You have access to mine; I've written them down for you, but I need more access to you since there may be times when I need to know what you meant when you said whatever it is that you did. Certainly, for me it would be helpful, and so even if you don't do it for anyone else, if you're not sure how they will react, please let me understand what you want of me. Let me decide if I can lift my game to wherever it is that you want me to be. I'm not promising that I will be able to do so, but at least you will have given me a chance to become one of the greatest Jamaican writers of all times. ;) +In closing, I would like to remind us all that it takes little effort to sweeten the bitterest medicine with a spoon of sugar; and the effort is worth it since you are likely to be given a better reception if your aim in offering your comments is to help the person involved to do a better job next time. Of course, if your agenda is something else, like crushing that person's spirit, then you could probably continue doing what you're doing now; but don't be surprised if you continue to be ignored." +885,Viagra Falls,Badlands1,How To,2020-10-10,2020-10-10,2022-01-04 08:41:30,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/viagra-falls,Sex: the ultimate aphrodisiac.,"['Hugh Mungus', 'Humor', 'Satire', 'Swing Club', 'Swinger', 'Swingers']",1.77,"Fuck Viagra! You don't need it. Nobody does. You'd be better off taking a placebo, garnering some confidence, and heading into a sexual skirmish. +We're talkin' a drug here with numerous side effects, and only one benefit. With or without Vegas odds, that's a terrible return. Still, this shit must be sellin', since the corporation that produces it has the cash to run television commercials that play on credulous minds. +Viagra is more easy to figure out than a two piece puzzle. +Watch, or read, an advertisement for this little blue implement from Hell. Make note of which demographic is targeted. Males obviously, but which males in particular? +Married men. Specifically, betrothed, middle-aged men. One might conclude this equates to erectile dysfunction for this age group, but that's what the makers of Viagra want you to think. It means money in their pockets, when some 50 year old can't get it up once, fears he has a problem, and runs to Dr. Kevorkian for pharmaceutical salvation. +Look at this logically, though. Due to fucked-up societal pressure, most men 40, 50, and 60 are either married, or have been. Consequently, they're having sex with the same partner over, and over, and over. Hence, tedium. Hence, boredom. +I love certain books, but I can only read 'em so many times, before the anticipation is all but stripped from their plots. +It's the same with marriage. Hump one woman hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of times, and you're gonna lose interest. This is simple rationale most people don't stop to consider, when binding themselves by law, in a monogamous commitment. +Makers of Viagra, and analogous drugs, are aware married, middle-aged men — resultant of protracted periods of matrimony — will become bored. As such, these snake oil salesmen play on the weaknesses of this demographic, informing them they have an actual affliction. +Married? Been so for a while? Having a hard time obtaining an erection? +Go out, and have an affair. You'll be carvin' granite with your salacious sword, in the company of your supplemental sex slave. It's simple logic, but the last thing the fuckheads at Big Pharma want you to figure out. If men realized they didn't need this useless crap, Viagra wouldn't be in business. +I've watched countless guys pop the little-blue-pill-that-couldn't, only to still have difficulty getting it up. As a result, these bastards dive deeper into despair, over a dilemma that doesn't exist. +Consider this, as well. One of the side effects that accompanies consumption of Viagra is the potential for heart attacks. Ask yourself this question: ""Are you willing to risk having a coronary, in order to obtain a hard-on?"" If you replied, ""Yes,"" your problems are mental, not physical. +Society is headed down a path in which the majority of males will be dead — via heart failure — but their penises will be rock solid. +Dump Viagra. You don't need it. In addition, you'll seriously lessen your chance of having a coronary. +What follows are tips to assist in your quest for tumescence. +A) This isn't America's Got Talent, and you're not onstage. Trash terms like ""sexual performance."" You're forced to take tests, and constantly adhere to standards that cause undue torment. Fuck that! +These unnecessary evils suck the fun right out of existence. Don't allow them to permeate your last bastion of a good time: group sex. Be thrilled you're grabbin' bare tit! You've already won. Most folks are watching porn, while you're living it! +B) Partake of a myriad of women. By regularly rotating your inventory, it remains fresh and delicious. Doesn't that chocolate pie look scrumptious? It is, but now that you've tasted it, realize there's a bad-ass butterscotch pastry in the oven, and an amazing apple strudel cooling on the rack. Try 'em all! +C) Last time I had sex, I was alone and frightened. +Don't exhaust your ammo during solo sessions. Some of the best coitus I've experienced was when nobody was around. Even so, I can't remember one solitary showdown I've engaged in, but still recall the worst sex I've had with a woman in attendance. +Fingering your flute is pleasurable, but don't do it constantly. You'll end up with nothing left for adventures in the swinging arena. +D) This being said, there's no way you'll stop boppin' the bishop. Nobody does. Clergy do it — probably incessantly. Unless it's collecting pictures of Fred Savage's asshole, why stop doing something you enjoy? Should you find yourself whittling the wiener, use that experience as a training tool. +If you must whack it, do so for a long time. I never get in touch with myself, unless I plan on being there at least two hours. You can apply your own specifications, but this discipline not only enhances your orgasms, it also teaches your body it's fine to hump for extended interludes. +Hence, you'll be able to hook-up with more women. Don't be shocked, when you're bestowed the colloquialism ""Energizer Bunny,"" amongst repeat customers. +E) When fluffing Mr. Peepers, try not shooting your load. This insane society indoctrinates us to believe that — as a male — you're obligated to fire off your cannon, in order to be sexually satisfied. +Rather, stroke for hours, and simply store up that resultant energy. I do it all the time, and can literally go about my day, on 120 minutes of sleep. +Blue balls is an erroneous term, obviously conjured up by some dude attempting to coerce some chick into getting him off. +F) Da More I Drink, Demeanor I Get. Upon entrance to a libidinous location, some guys make it their life's goal to become Bud Light's best customer. The moniker ""Super Sexual Soldier"" isn't often found alongside the term alcohol abuse.

Pull up a seat and take notes, because there _will_ be a test later, and it won't be me administering it. The virtual bouncers, the models, and the other chatters in the room are the ones who will stamp you with a pass or fail, and they're a tough crowd to please. +I'm going to assume that you have an interest in watching beautiful women (or gorgeous guys, as most of this applies for the opposite side of the coin as well) doing their best to drive you out of your mind with lust from across miles of internet wiring. I'm also hoping that I don't make an ass out of _U_ and _Me_ by assuming that you're looking for more than visual stimulation. If all you wanted was virtual nakedness or sex, you could get that from any pic or video site. +There are more business models for nudie chat than there are sexual positions, but I'm going to stick with the most common in this course — free teaser chats with more behind the curtain if you _pay to play_. There are variations on this theme as well, but the basics here should allow you to easily adjust. +Who the hell am I to be instructing you? I'm someone who's been there, from a lot of different angles. I started out as a chatter, hanging out in the room just like anyone else. After a while, I was tapped by the site management for a position as an admin — a virtual bouncer to remove problem chatters. That gave me the opportunity to talk to the models 'offstage' where they could relax, and the management of the chat site. I talked to one of those models a lot more than the others, and we ended up moving in together. I know first hand what those models are saying about you once they turn the cam off. +It doesn't necessarily make me an expert, but I do have insight from almost every perspective, so I believe I have something to offer. I'm the old man rocking on the porch. I may be a bit crotchety at times, but if you can get past my tales of walking ten miles through the snow to get to chat, there's some hard-won wisdom in the stories I have to tell you whippersnappers. + **(I.) Recon** +There are two things you'll want to do when you first step into the nudie chat world, and you can fortunately do them both at the same time. Just as there are umpteen business models for chats, there are just as many types of models. Your first quest is to find a model that you want to hang around with. +My first lesson is to keep your fingers away from the keyboard during this reconnaissance mission. Pay attention to who the models are talking to. Naturally, they'll be talking to known paying customers and people they think might become such, but that's not all. You'll learn who the regulars in the room are, and these are people you don't want to cross verbal swords with. If you take a stab at a regular, you'll find a dozen blades in your back before you can say, ""Oops!"" This is the quickest way to find your name blackballed across the site. +You should also pay attention to who these regulars and the model are shunning or telling to go away. Odds are that you'll discover why in short order, and those behaviors are the things you want to avoid. +I'm sure you'll find hotties within a couple of minutes of logging on to chat. Concentrating on eye candy is going to leave you bored and moving on in short order, though. Imagine a mad scientist crossing a telemarketer with a Barbie Doll and you have a perfect picture of these girls. Don't waste time in these rooms, because there are much greener pastures. Find a girl that's actually engaging in _conversation_ with the room. +You'll find every type of personality under the sun posing in front of the camera for your viewing pleasure. The key is finding one that has more going for her than a nice rack and a smoking caboose. The chatters in the room are a good indicator of whether you're going to click with the model or not. If you take a liking to someone else chatting in the room, then odds are that you share some interests with that person, as well as the model. +Once you've found a room or three where the conversation stimulates your brain and the model stimulates other, more interesting places, it's time to take off the camouflage and start chatting. + **(II.) My Name Is:** +Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. +Sorry, couldn't resist. +You need a chat handle if you want anyone to notice you. Trying to respond to guest432 is a pain for everyone, and they're liable to ignore you rather than bother. +You need to come up with something that you'll be happy with for a long time to come, so give this decision some careful consideration. Naturally, you'll want to avoid any version of your real name that could possibly lead anyone to the real you. Beyond that, you want something that stands out and is original. It's helpful to come up with a name that can be shortened, because chat moves fast, and everyone wants to use the minimum amount of keystrokes necessary to get a message out. +If you don't want every chatter in the room and the model to snicker behind your back — or to you face — here are some things to avoid: 10in4U, HugeJohnson, MobyDick, TungMaster, BigDick, etc. I'm sure you get the picture. Touting your lovemaking skills or the size of Mr. Happy in your chat handle isn't going to impress anyone. Everyone knows that the internet adds inches and cup sizes to every measurement, and they're just as likely to call you _Inchworm_ if you choose _MonsterDong_ as your chat handle. +You also want to make sure that you don't encroach on a regular chatter's name. If someone named Darken is chatting on your chosen site regularly, avoid anything that begins with _Dark_. This goes back to the nickname for your nickname. When there are two Darks in the room, everyone gets confused. Just like _Highlander_ , there can be only one, and you're liable to spark a verbal battle to the death by filching someone else's handle. +First impressions are as important in chat as in real life, and your chat handle is one of your first impressions in nudie chat. Think long and hard before you put on that name tag and walk in the room. + **(III.) You're In My House** +In free chat, the model is the one in control of the room. She's there to drum up business for her private shows, and thus to entertain the room, but what she says goes. The model is working under several sets of rules, from the federal level on down to personal likes and dislikes. If you get into a battle of wills with the model, you _will_ lose. +Don't get wrapped up in conversations with other chatters and leave the model out of it. Everything going on in the room should be about her, in one way or another. Your job in free chat is to keep her awake and smiling. Your reward is the same. +Don't start chatting up some other woman in the room and having cyber-sex with her. First off, it's probably a guy. +(Pause for cringing) +Second, that's extremely rude to the model. It's her house, so don't be sneaking off into the corner to shag somebody else at the party. + **(IV.) Buyers Never Beg, And Beggars Never Buy** +One of the first things you'll probably see in chat is someone typing something like, ""shw me ur tits bb!"" +Don't do this. +Imagine you've just won the lottery and that you're trapped in a small room with every deadbeat relative, friend, or neighbor you waved at once in passing. That's how the model feels when dealing with a room full of people acting like this. +Let the model work the room at her own pace. If she's not showing off, she's probably not going to be around long. If you're patient and join in the chat, you'll probably see whatever you're tempted to beg for soon enough. The more people there are in the room screaming for T&A, the less likely she is to want to give those peeks. +The only time you should make a request is when the model is asking for requests. One single beg can offset hours of pleasant chatting in a model's mind. +Keep in mind that she has to save something for the private shows. If she's fully naked and close-up finger-banging in free chat, why would anyone bother to purchase private minutes? + **(V.) No Polishing The Sword In Free Chat** +Spanking the monkey, wrestling with cyclops — whatever you want to call it — is a no-no in free chat. No matter what other motivations the model has to be on cam, the money is certainly a factor. Most models aren't making any money unless they get a private show, so rubbing one out in free chat is more or less shoplifting — not to mention rude. +If you must, don't announce it to the chat. The rest of the room certainly doesn't want that image in their head, and the model isn't likely to be overjoyed about it, at best. + **(VI.) Tell Her About It** +It should go without saying, but compliment the model. What sort of compliments she likes may vary, but every model wants to know that you think they're beautiful/hot/sexy. There's a reason you're staring at that video and tingling in critical locations, so let her know. You don't want to go overboard with it, but you don't want to go without mentioning it either. +Some models will swoon when you wax poetic, while others are just as happy with, ""You have awesome tits!"" It's up to you to find out what makes her purr, and then stroke her. (Not _IT_ — see number five) + **(VII.) Charge!** +No, this has nothing to do with your credit card. If some rude person comes into chat and gets on the model's nerves, it's time for you to take to horse, grab your lance, and ride into battle. Don't wait for the rest of the room to suit up, get on that steed and skewer the miscreant as soon as possible. +Sometimes the villain may not realize that they're annoying the model. In this case, politely pointing it out may be enough to do the trick. Don't use a broadsword when a smack on the knuckles with a ruler will suffice. Unfortunately, this is the exception, rather than the rule. +When someone is purposely insulting the model or doggedly begging in an extremely rude manner, your job is to redirect their attention to you. Once they've forgotten about the model to hurl badly spelled insults at you, you've already won the battle. If you can't think of anything better, just tell them to go away. It's better to be creative and funny, if you have it in you. +""Did your mother feed you a steady diet of lead paint chips as a child?"" +""Help control the drooling moron population. Have your (Rude Person's Name) spayed or neutered."" +This is your opportunity to channel all those frustrations with idiots you encounter in the real world into something positive. Not only do you get to verbally smack around some stain on the underpants of society, but a beautiful half-naked woman just might swoon for you in the process. +As with everything else, gauge your response by what the model is comfortable with. She might end up laughing so hard that she has to run off cam to tinkle when you're verbally cutting someone to ribbons. Others would prefer you not go so far. Some may even want to rely on silent justice in the form of kicking the user from chat. +They all want to know that you think enough of them to feel annoyed by someone when they are. + **(VIII.) Rescue Rangers** +If you happen to have some spare cash lying around, the ultimate way to rescue a model from a hostile chatter or a hostile room is to take her private. Keep in mind that private minutes are expensive, and you can't let your chivalry get in the way of paying your bills. +Taking a model into a private show, even for as little as five minutes or less, has multiple advantages. First, whatever miscreants were in the room will almost all find somewhere else to go immediately. Second, the model is getting a paid break from the zoo that is free chat. Finally, the model is there to serve you in a private show. If you've been itching for a close-up or something special, now is the time to ask for it. +If you're only going to do a short _rescue show_ , let her know that from the beginning. Not only will she appreciate the break, but she also won't be surprised or disappointed by the short private show. + **(IX.) A Little Private Time** +If you decide to take the model into a private show, here are a few pointers to get the most out of those expensive minutes. +First and foremost, never let any variation of these words pass your lips. ""Show me (whatever) and I'll get a show."" Even if you're serious, no model is going to believe you. They hear that more times a day than you can count, and 99.9% of the people saying it are lying through their teeth. +You should be paying attention while you're chatting, and you'll learn a lot about what the model can/can't or will/won't do in a private show. People are constantly asking questions of that nature, and you can compile a list in your head within a short period of time. Every chat site has its own rules. Individual studios within those sites will have other rules. The model may have personal things she doesn't like to do. Laws and ordinances put other restrictions on what a model can do, even in a private connection. +If you have a special request and nobody else has asked the question, you should before you go private. Don't go crazy with this, because that will get on the model's nerves. Too many people sound as if they are interviewing the model for an unauthorized biography. +You can count on her being completely naked in a private show. You can count on close-ups, masturbation, etc. You may need to ask if you want to see anal, pantyhose, baby oil, or something of that nature. Make sure that they have what you want, and that they're willing. +Don't ask for outfit changes before the show starts. People do this all the time, and most don't ever go private. The model ends up changing out of what _she_ wanted to wear, and then the show never materializes. Unless you have a history of coming through with the private show, just don't request it. +Tell the model that you're about to take her private. She may take it with a grain of salt the first time, because she hears that all day, but if she's about to go on break or something, that gives her the opportunity to tell you. +Once you're in the show, be polite. Ask — don't demand. If your kink is power- play, then let her know that as soon as the show starts. If you just storm into a private show saying, ""Get those panties off and bend over, bitch,"" then she's not likely to react well. If you tell her in advance that you like that, she's probably going to play along. +The human body only bends in so many directions, so be reasonable with your requests. She's not Gumby, so using a vibrator in her pussy and ass in doggy- style position while licking her nipples where you can see it at the same time just isn't possible. The model also isn't a mind reader, so you may have to explain what it is you want to see if she doesn't get it right from the beginning. +Master one-handed typing, if necessary. If the site has some way for her to hear your voice, that's far better. You'll warm her up and get a better show by complimenting her and telling her how much you're enjoying the show than by giving a series of commands. If you turn the model on with your words, you'll get far more from the experience than if she's having to summon up motivation on her own. If she shares a kink with you, take advantage of it. +If you can, give her a few minutes to relax before your private minutes run out. Hopefully, she's languid from coming hard, and she'll appreciate the time to regain her composure. Give her a chance to get dressed again, or have a drink. Even a minute or so will earn you brownie points in both free chat and any follow-up shows. Just like in the real world, you should think of your cyber-partner before, during, and after the fun time. +Come back into free chat and talk about how good the show was once it's over. It's free advertising for the model. + **(X.) In Conclusion** +You don't have to be a big spender to be a welcome addition to the chat room. You don't ever have to spend a single thin dime. If you can crack a joke to make the model smile, or chase off annoying beggars, then you're contributing to the bottom line of the model and the site. A model that's not having a good time and smiling isn't going to attract private shows. Those long hours of posing half-naked on your bed can quickly grow boring without something interesting going on in chat. +You'll get the most out of your nudie chat time if you're part comedian, part Casanova, and part Knight in Shining Armor. Once you're into the model's inner circle, you all should feed off each other to have a good time. There's something special about a sexy half-dressed woman laughing at your jokes that you just can't get anywhere else. I've made lifelong friends in chat, the kind of people who will give you the shirt off their back when times get rough. +Be warned, it can be addicting. You do still need to show up at work, eat, shower, and all those other little things in the real world too. +Walk into chat with only one expectation — having a good time and seeing a sexy model on screen. If you're realistic, then your time in nudie chat can fill in those gaps of boredom that everyone experiences when the guys are trapped at home with Honey-Do lists and there's nothing on the tube. +Here endeth the lesson. Turn to page 69 in your hymnals and head for chat." +888,Visiting a Gloryhole,BuckyDuckman,How To,2014-07-29,2014-07-29,2022-01-04 08:41:43,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/visiting-a-gloryhole,Firsthand experience on what to expect visiting a gloryhole.,"['Blowjob', 'Firsthand Experience', 'Gloryhole', 'Guide', 'Sex Store', 'Video Preview Booth']",4.39,"Gloryholes. Are they real? How do I find one? What's it like to visit one? Is there an etiquette to follow? Are they safe? + **Are they real?** Yes! I've visited several of them. How many? I didn't keep count. Ten? Fifteen? I don't know. I've visited them from Philly to St. Louis to Florida and lots of places in between. Deploy the power of the internet to search around for one near you. There are several sites that will help. Or, look for sex shops that advertise ""Video Preview Booths"" and check for yourself. +Let's get the controversial part out of the way: **Are they safe?** Gloryholes are as safe (and unsafe) as any one-night-stand or most other anonymous hook- ups. Look, we all know the safest sex is either abstinence, masturbation or limiting yourself to one, well-tested, completely faithful partner. Setting that aside, oral sex among healthy adults is (relatively) very safe. It's even safer if you don't have any open cuts or sores in your mouth. Even safer if you take a look at the big dick you're about to put into your mouth and inspect it for sores or cuts. Safer still if you consider the typical clientele of most gloryholes: married, middled-aged white guys. Still, sex is never without risk and if you're a hypochondriac, have too much OCD or just a worry wart - then stay the fuck away, okay? +What about the dangers of sticking your dick into a hole in the wall? Dude (and you're definitely mostly a dude if you have a dick), if the other guy didn't want your dick, he wouldn't have ASKED for it, you know? We're not talking about sticking your dick inside a random hole out in the world. We're talking about sticking your dick inside the adjoining walls of two booths showing sex movies. + **Where do you find the booths?** The ones I've visited are about the same. Booths are typically found inside sex shops that sell X-rated DVDs and adult toys. Look for sex shops that advertise ""Video Preview Booths"" or ""Peep Shows."" Many require a purchase of tokens before you visit the booth area. There will be a sign. A few have an admission fee for heading in the booth area and you're expected to have a pocket of singles for the video machines. The clerk behind the counter ain't gonna judge you. Mumble that you want some tokens, hand them some money and you're on your way! Not all sex shops with preview booths have gloryholes! Some only have a few gloryholes tucked at one end or other of the row of booths. Do your research, it's why Google exists! + **What's it like in the booth area?** With few exceptions, most of the booth areas I've encountered are dark hallways with very poor lighting. There are usually several guys milling around in the booth area (more about that in a minute). I have visited a few where the booth area is as well lit as the store, but that's definitely the exception. + **What's with the guys hanging out in the hallway?** Who knows?! I don't ever get why some places seem to have lots of guys hanging out in the hallway. Some of these same places will have ""No loitering"" signs posted and STILL have guys hanging out in the hallway. Maybe they're waiting for a chick to visit a booth. Maybe they're hoping Prince Charming will visit. In general, though, most are waiting to see who goes into a booth with a gloryhole. Hey, if you have a chance to check out the person sucking your dick, wouldn't you take it? Maybe they're waiting for a black guy to go into a booth or a white guy or a pirate. +There's another way to visit the booth area that doesn't involve gloryholes. It's waiting for someone to invite you into their booth. You make a bit of eye contact with one of the guys, enter the booth near them, leave your door ajar and hope they follow you. If they don't, they aren't interested. If they do, well, start sucking! + **What are the booths like?** Most of them are small, very small. Think about it, it's a retail space and the more booths they can fit into a small space, the better the owner's chances at making some money! So, how small? I've been inside some that were no more than three or four feet wide and nearly as deep. Meaning, you have enough room to step inside the booth, turn around and close the door. Some have a bench built into the wall. Some will include a chair. Sometimes the chair inside looks like something the thrift store would reject. I've seen some with wastebaskets and towels available, too. Depending on the place, the booths might be exceptionally clean or really nasty and dirty. Peek inside a few booths. Take a look! If you don't like what you see, head somewhere else. +Otherwise, the booths will have a TV, typically behind a piece of glass or Plexiglass and a machine for your dollars or tokens. The doors typically have a lock and, unless you want unexpected company, lock your door. Above the door will be a light that signifies if the person inside is spending money or not. Maybe the light changes from green to red or just lights up. Remember, the owner of your local sex shop is there to make money. FEED THE MACHINE! Some places require their help to check for occupied booths where no one is spending money. + **How big are the gloryholes?** Usually, there's nothing more between the booths than a piece of plywood. I've seen gloryholes big enough for someone to climb through them (though only once in a real dive of a place). I've seen some that feature a door or panel, where you can decide if you want the gloryhole open or closed. Some holes are crude, as if other people spent hours digging away at the wall with their pen knife. Some have been professionally cut between the booths. I've seen them vary in size from about as big around as a fist to being the size of a dinner plate. A few have been too low for me (I'm rather tall). I've read complaints about some places where guys thought the holes were too tall for short guys. + **Okay, inside, the door is locked, a movie is playing, now what?** If you're a guy hoping to suck some dick, whip it out! I know, that seems counterintuitive. If you're there to suck dick, why do you need to pull out YOUR dick? Simple answer. The guy getting into the booth next to you will probably take a peek to see what you're doing. If they see you with your dick out, then they know you mean business. +Mostly, you get inside your booth, pay your money, find a channel you like (most booths have a channel selector) and wait for someone to get into the booth next to you. Remember those guys standing in the hallway? Most of them saw you go into a booth. If they're interested, they'll get into the booth next to you. If they're not interested, then fuck'em. Wait until someone else shows up. Maybe you'll spend twenty minutes sitting in there; ready, willing and able. Maybe you'll do nothing more than close the door and you'll have a buddy next door. + **How do I let the other guy know I want to suck his dick?** Stick a couple fingers into the hole and wiggling them around. Sometimes, a guy might try shoving his tongue through a hole, but seriously, just a couple fingers will do. If the other guy is interested, he'll get the point. + **What if I want to do more?** Dude, that's on you. I go to suck and be sucked. If you want it up the ass, then I hope you brought condoms and lube. + **He wants to suck me, too!** Maybe. Some guys do, some guys don't. Up to you, champ. Some guys enjoy getting half a blowjob and leaving. Don't ask me why. I've been told (multiple times) that I'm very accomplished sucking dick, but maybe my style doesn't please everyone, I don't know. + **I'm a chick, can I visit one?** Hell yes! Have I seen it? Yes, but not very often. However, it DOES happen. Expect the most of the guys to be shocked seeing a woman in the hallway. They'll be curious and I'm willing to bet, very nice to you, too. + **Who goes to gloryholes?** Mostly, middled aged guys and mostly white guys (though that can vary depending on where you are). + **When is the best time to go?** I've found that lunch time is a great time to go. Mid-afternoons can be good. Right after work is alright, too. Think about it, most of the guys are married and sneaking away for a bit of a thrill that no one is ever going to know about. Most of the day Saturday can be good, too. + **Anything else?** Yes, buck up and go! Check one out. See what's happening. Maybe you'll just look around and not do anything and that's okay. Maybe you'll find a new hobby and that's okay, too. Mostly, though, use your common sense and have fun!" +889,Want To Get Laid On Your Travels?,Munachi,How To,2006-06-02,2006-06-02,2022-01-04 08:41:44,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/want-to-get-laid-on-your-travels,A few tips for adventurous vacations.,"['Beach', 'Dorm', 'Exotic', 'Exotic Location', 'Exotic People', 'Hostel', 'Hotel', 'International', 'Travel']",4.4,"If you frequent popular travel message boards on the internet, you will notice questions like: ""Which country in South America has the most beautiful women?"" ""What do you think of Italian men?"" or ""How can I best meet local girls in Poland?"" From this fact, one could assume that for quite a few people the prospect of sex in a foreign country is part of their motivation to travel. +It might be the hope, that finding someone, is somehow easier far away from home, the prospect of sex in particularly romantic locations, the idea of exotic beauties that are waiting just for you... or just the idea of combining two things a lot of people enjoy: sex and travel. +Be careful! The rules for social interaction are different in different places, and you should be aware of how to behave in order not to offend anyone. And, on the other hand, just because you are far away from home, things don't magically happen without any effort. If at home, you have trouble getting to know guys or girls, it might be even more difficult abroad. I have met people who seemed to be travelling for the sole reason of getting laid – and they all ended up disappointed. Travel for the travel experience, and view anything else as a bonus. +The following are a few tips on how to help things along a bit, and what to keep in mind if you have sexual encounters on your travels. They are, of course, from my limited experience and from what other people have told me; thus, they are by no means complete, and I take no responsibilities if they should not work out for you. Also, since I am a student, my travel experiences have taken place in budget traveller and backpacking surroundings, so my text is directed mainly to other backpackers. +There are different people you could have sex with abroad. The first one would be: + **Option 1: Your Travel Partner** +This of course works best, if your travel partner is your significant other, or at least someone you already have sex with on a regular basis. If not your significant other, please keep in mind that you will most likely still keep travelling with them for a while. A night of passion between ""just friends"" can lead to some very awkward feelings afterwards. Now imagine this awkwardness with someone you still plan to share hotel rooms with for the next three days or five weeks or seven months. +A few weeks of backpacking together even without sex has destroyed quite a few friendships – in the case of me and a the girl who used to be one of my best friends, three days in Vienna with her mother were enough. Sometimes you don't know how annoying someone is, until you are in a place where you can't escape them. And on the other hand sex even without the background of having to sit next to each other on a ten hour bus ride right after can be quite destructive for a friendship at times. So, imagine a combination of these two aspects. +If, on the other hand, your travel partner is your partner also at home, chances are good that you will really get laid on your travels – I don't think I need to advice you on any special seducing techniques because it is quite likely, that you know your partner better than I do. +But where to have sex with your partner? +You probably can see it in front of your inner eye: A beautiful beach, the sound of the waves, the sun setting behind palm trees, no one there except for you and your lover, you can taste the salt from your swim in the ocean still on each other's lips as you melt into a kiss that makes you one with nature... +My one and only try of having sex at a beach was very different to this: The beach was quite near to the center of Barcelona and everything but lonely, despite it being the middle of the night. We had a few drinks, a swim (please don't copy this, swimming when you are drunk can be quite dangerous, even more so at night when you can't be seen), and then got comfortable on the sand. Or in the sand. Or the sand on us. And in us. In the end, the sand stuck everywhere, and we gave up, as people walked by about ten meters from us. If I ever try this again, I will not only look for a beach that is truely lonely, but I will also at least bring a blanket. +Should your travel destination lie in the mountains at an altitude of more than 3000 meters, please remember the Bolivian saying _camine lentito, come poquito... y duerme solito_ (walk slowly, eat little... and sleep by yourself). Physically exhausting activities on your first days at high altitude can lead to altitude sickness, and that can be the case for long sex sessions too. Altitude sickness is no fun. Fortunately, the body usually adapts quickly, and after two or three days you can do all the hiking and have all the sex you want. +If you can't even wait until arrival at your destination, you could try to become a member of the Mile High Club during the journey (that is, if you travel by airplane). The most common place, I am told, would be the airplane's toilet. I can't imagine them to be too comfortable or have a very erotic atmosphere. Also, the people queuing outside might not be very happy with your blocking of the hygienic facilities, but I heard there is a certain thrill to doing it in the air. +Otherwise, the more conventional option is in your hotel, pension or hostel. A lot of hostels have a few double rooms, otherwise a cheap hotel might be a good idea: people who have sex in dorms generally aren't popular with fellow travelers. Apart from that, I enjoy sex a lot more if I can be as loud as I want. Then again, some people _are_ as loud as I want to – in one hostel I once stayed at, another guest told me how she couldn't close an eye the past night, because an Italian couple in the dorm next to hers (not her own!) had such a loud and long sex session. Just think of how loud it must have been for the people in the same dorm! Interestingly, I had had sex with my boyfriend in our dorm the very same night, but the friend we were travelling with slept through it (or never complained to us, but he isn't the type not to say anything.) If you really can't afford more than two dorm beds (though in a lot of places double rooms in a run down hotel catering to locals are cheaper than hostels, whose guests are mainly foreigners), waiting until everyone left the rooms to do some sightseeing might be the nice thing to do. +One thing that might be good to know about, is your destination's attitude to public displays of affection. They might be less accepted than at home, and it is a good idea to not offend the locals by openly kissing and feeling each other up in the middle of the street. After all, travelling is also about cultural experience, not about imposing your own customs everywhere. Sex in public places gets you into trouble almost everywhere in the world when you get caught – and the definition of where sex or offensive behavior starts might vary. +In a few places, unmarried couples might have difficulties getting a room together, but in most of the world it should not be a problem. + **Advantages:** +If you absolutely must have sex on your travels to call it a successful vacation, then travelling with your partner might be the safest bet. If you have sex on a regular basis at home, why wouldn't you do so abroad as well? And travelling together could spice up your sex life. It could be a new motivation for those that are starting to lose interest, a time to focus on each other, and a way to escape the everyday stress of your lives. +Also, travelling in Two can turn out cheaper per person than travelling by yourself: You can get double rooms instead of singles, and the taxi or private guide you would pay full price for even when you are alone usually doesn't get more expensive when there are two of you. + **Disadvantages** +While this option means you will have sex in new locations, your sex partner will still be the same one as always. Which might not be what you meant by new experiences... Especially if you don't have a partner, travelling with one might not be possible. +Travelling together, especially when you are still a new couple and don't yet even live together, can be a strain on the relationship – I mentioned the difficulties of travelling with friends above, and the same can apply to couples that aren't used to seeing so much of each other yet. +On a backpacking journey you are very close to each other, very often and for a long time. You share rooms, sit next to each other on busses, go sightseeing together, etc. You just might realize that the person you believed to love so very much, has some very annoying habits. Chose well whom you travel with. This is also true for travelling with people you aren't sexually involved with – but in that case at least, you could decide to split ways and meet again at the end of the journey. If a couple does this, it might feel like a defeat that is difficult to cope with later on, and could be the end of your relationship. + **Option 2: Other Travelers** +As I said above, I am referring mainly to backpackers and budget travelers, thus I will speak about people who go to hostels or cheap hotels. For those that prefer more expensive accommodation, things might be different; I wouldn't know though, as I can't afford expensive hotels. +Of course you probably won't meet someone every night and in every hostel. And chances vary also according to where you are. I would suggest hostels rather than cheap hotels, and preferably dorm rooms, especially mixed dorms. You might not even have to venture very far to meet nice people then. Should you want the privacy of a single room (which admittedly has a lot of advantages if you succeed in meeting someone to have sex with) I would suggest a hostel or hotel with a good common area. +Smaller hostels seem best to me, not only for the sake of meeting guys/girls. One of my favorite hostels was a tiny place somewhere in Australia, not more than 20 people were staying there, and after about a day I knew everyone by name. Another one, in Seville in Spain, was not much bigger, and while it had no real dorms (four beds was the maximum) it had a beautiful, typically Andalusian patio full of plants and armchairs. Every day after sightseeing I would sit there for a while to relax and chat with the other guests as they returned from their own trips into the city centre. In the evening, we would sit there for a while, one of us playing guitar, and then part into little groups in which we went into various pubs and flamenco bars. Or one in Southern Chile that had a living room with an open fire place around which we would all gather to warm up from the hiking we had done during the day... you get the idea. You should have a chance to meet people. +This isn't to say no one ever made friends or had a one night stand or met the love of their life in a big, anonymous hostel. It's just a bit more difficult. Of course the hostel isn't the only place to meet fellow travelers. Cities that are popular with backpackers often have bars that cater mainly to foreign guests, and maybe you meet the right person on a guided tour or while you are sightseeing by yourself, or even while you are hiking. +The good thing about meeting people on your travels is that it is easier to start a conversation than it might be in a bar back home. There is always something to talk about: ""How long have you been here?"" ""Where are you going to next?"" ""Did you like this or that place, is it worth going there?"" and before you know it you are in the middle of a conversation. A few questions about the life back home can help you find out, if the person of your interest has a boyfriend/girlfriend back home. +The hostels, bars, tours on offer in different places aren't always ideal though. Obviously, in a popular travel destination there will be more travelers, more hostels, and more parties. In regions that only see a handful of tourists at a time hostels might be a scarcity. The thing about party places and tourist hot spots is, though, that everyone goes there. They often aren't exactly adventurous. If sex and parties are the main purpose of your travels they are great, but else they could get old quite quickly. For me variety works best. After a few weeks far away from everyone and everything I enjoy the party places. After a few days there, though, I want to flee them again. +Mostly, things work like they would at home – that also means keeping in mind that abroad a no is still a no, and that you should be sensitive about reading signs. Not every single traveler is just waiting for you to chat him/her up, but according to my experience, people are less shy and somewhat more open to no-strings sex while travelling. This might be due to the relaxed atmosphere in a hostel, the fact that most people want to have fun on their vacation, or maybe the knowledge of that you will all travel on into different directions the next day, and thus all actions seem to be without consequence. +In fact, though, there are consequences that exist abroad as well. So please be safe. If you are a girl, you probably don't want a baby from someone of whom you don't know much more than their first name and the fact that they are on a round the world tour. And if you are a guy, you don't want to have to wonder for the rest of your life whenever you see a child looking strangely like you. +Once I had an argument that lasted about 20 minutes with an Australian in a hotel room in Madrid, because I insisted on a condom, while he ""promised to have no STDs."" I should have left right away. Just because someone is a backpacker like you, doesn't mean they are safe from having STDs. It is likely that you are not the only person they have had sex with on their travels, and if they don't want to use a condom with you, it is very likely they have had sex without a condom with other strangers they met on their travels before. If you want to have sex while traveling, or see even the slightest possibility you might, then a pack of condoms belongs to your basic travel survival kit. Don't expect the other one to have them, unless you want to spend hours late at night in a strange town looking for an open pharmacy or a vending machine. If you buy them in the country, I would suggest to try to buy a well known brand – condoms are the wrong things to save money on. I could tell you several stories about the trouble I had with cheap no brand condoms from vending machines in Prague. Of course for the condoms in your backpack the usual precautions ascribe: Don't have them near any sharp objects, and if you travel in extreme climates avoid exposing them to heat or cold. + **Advantages** +Some of the advantages of getting it on with other travelers (versus locals, which I will talk about next) are obvious: In most cases you will have a language in common (usually English) and you will be from a somewhat similar cultural background, which helps in avoiding misunderstandings or very different ideas about morals. +Also, you both know you will take trains, busses or airplanes into different directions soon, and thus you know not to expect something beyond the moment. If you have been traveling for a while already, you probably have even gotten over exchanging email addresses with everyone you meet along the way. That helps not only avoiding complications with one person ending up to want more, but also in some cases makes the shock milder whenever the alcohol wears off and you realize who you are lying in bed next to. And you don't need to worry to run into them again each time you enter your local bar. Though I wouldn't be too sure, if they travel a similar route to yours they just might have the dorm bed next to yours in the next town. +On the other hand, I know people who have found the love of their life this way, and adapted their travel route in order to be able to spend more time together. + **Disadvantages** +As said above, I know people who have found the love of their life this way. However, this love of their life often did not live in the same country as them. And often did not have the same travel plans as them either. So after a few days they had to say good bye. And either that was it, or what followed was a long distance relationship – which in some cases lead to one of them finally moving to the other's country, but in other cases did not work out. +One of the most difficult problems is where to have sex. If both of you travel by themselves, you are very likely to both be staying in dorms – and I have already written about the difficulties of having sex in dorms. You could book a private room, but a lot of backpackers I met are chronically low on money. So, in the end, you might have to resort to the dorm or other places in the hostel after all. The hostels own policy to people having sex in their dorms can vary, btw. In a hostel I stayed at in Spain, they had separate dorms for men and women, and when they found me late at night in the boys' dorm (Where I wasn't doing anything but talking to one of the guys), I was told I had to leave the hostel the next day. In a hostel in Bucharest, on the other hand, I found signs on the walls, saying that they find it quite okay and normal if people have sex during their stay, but they ask them to please keep the noise down. Interestingly, I had sex in the first hostel – in the women's shower with the water running, which we hoped would keep the male night guard out – but not in the second one. +Also, of course, a fellow traveler might not be as exotic to you as the locals, if it's exoticness you are after. And you aren't that exotic to them, either. + **Locals** +To some, this might be the most interesting thing about sex abroad: The idea of people exotically beautiful men or women, who are all you miss at home, and who are waiting just for you to come visit their country. +Reality can be different, though. There you are, abroad, but somehow the only locals you get to talk to are your tourist guides and the guy at the hostel reception. Or you do meet more locals, but no one seems to speak English (I have met people that seemed honestly surprised at the fact that not everyone in the world does.) +Now, the easiest way to meet locals that are willing to have sex with you, would probably be professionals. That, however, might not what you are after – after all it takes the whole aspect of having conquered a foreign girl/guy out of it, and you could have saved the money for the flight and invested it back home. Also, I am somewhat torn on that issue: On one hand I am not by principle, against prostitution, on the other hand I see problems, when it comes to poor countries, especially countries with a reputation for sex tourism. Often the prostitutes are very young, and not voluntary in the situation they are in. Even if they are old enough the question remains whether they are working in that area only because they didn't have any other chance (and in that case I would prefer to do things that help the local economy and give more people the chance to do different kinds of work). If you anyway want to go to prostitutes on your travels, I can't advice you a lot because you very likely have more experience with them than me. +If you plan to hit on locals, it is a good idea to know a lot about the country's culture. In some places openly flirting with local women can be seen as very offensive and could get you in trouble. Or a woman, who indicates sexual interest in local men, could be seen as something she doesn't want to be called. And it isn't the local's job to adapt to the tourist's culture – it's the other way around. So please, know where you are and behave accordingly. +Misunderstandings can't always be avoided in a place, whose language you don't speak. I met a guy in a hostel in Bangkok, who told me that a few nights ago he had found a nice bar, full of beautiful Thai girls and visited mainly by foreign men. He had a fun evening there, though nothing further than a kiss with a girl happened. The next day he returned, this time with a friend. He ended up talking to one of the girls, who after a while stood close enough to him for him to feel something that made him realize she wasn't really a she. A bit surprised, he asked her, whether she was a ""lady boy"", as he put it. ""Of course,"" was the answer. ""We are all lady boys here. This is what this bar is about. Didn't you know?"" He hadn't known, and now turned around to his friend to tell him – but he saw him in a very deep kiss with another Thai beauty, and decided to just not tell him... +In some towns a lot of locals seem to hang out at popular tourist bars. When I lived in Prague there were some Czech girls that could always be found at the places most English-speaking ex-pats and tourists went to. The locals that visit mainly tourist bars are usually quite interested in meeting foreigners, so it is easy to get to know them. Their motives vary. Some are interested in getting to know people from a different country, since they might not have the opportunity to travel themselves, they might want to learn about different cultures this way. Or they might have been abroad and now want to keep in touch with the culture of the country they have been to by specifically seeking out people from there. Maybe they also want to practice their English. +In some cases it might be specifically about sex. In countries where they are seen as ""exotic"" due to their looks, some women might complain that it becomes annoying to be hit on constantly. Of course not everything we might interpret as a come-on in our country really is the same in another country. A friend of mine complained about how sleazy the men in Romania were. I was confused: While I had been whistled after and hit on there a few times, not always by someone I was interested in myself, I hadn't noticed anything that I would see as annoying. It is possible that she met different men than I did; or maybe I don't seem as interesting as her – though I don't want to think so. On my next travels to Romania I gave some attention to the issue, and realized that I did get a lot of compliments that could be seen as flirty, especially from older men – but I had just put it down to being a different behaviour due to a different culture. In Germany, where I am from, people tend to be quite distant, and it can be rude to say certain things to someone you barely know – these same things elsewhere can be part of normal social interaction. It works both ways of course, so once again, you should know at least some things about local customs when abroad in order to not appear too forward or too reserved. +Still, I must admit there are places, where the constant whistles a woman travelling by herself can get, start to be annoying. For such cases, a few phrases in the local language might help to get rid of unwanted attention, though sometimes it is preferable to not say anything, but rather just ignore them. Of course, the usual precautions apply not only for women, and not only for those that look like obvious foreigners: Don't be too trusting of people you just met, and don't walk around alone at night in lonely or dodgy areas. +Unfortunately, sometimes the motives of locals hanging out in the typical tourist bars might not be what you want, though: In Peru these people are often referred to as ""Bridgeros"" from the English word ""bridge"" – they are trying to build themselves a bridge into your wallet or into your country. This doesn't mean you should be suspicious of everyone. You should just be aware of this fact and have an eye on your belongings (and on your drink!) when with people you don't know well – this is true in fact also for when you are with fellow travelers. +In general, I find the topic of ""Bridgeros"" to be quite a mine field. There are people, who will pretend to be in love, in order to get married abroad. Is that bad? A friend of my family brought home a girl from his travels, he was happy to finally have found love, and half a year later she was gone: with a different guy she met here. However, this happens all the time, also when someone didn't follow someone else to their country. Often there are true feelings, though the passport you carry might help them. In such a case, is it bad? And of course, far from everybody dreams to move to your country. Suspecting these motives whenever a vacation flirt becomes more serious would do a lot of people injustice. If, however, a vacation flirt is all you are after, it is good to make it clear. +Typical tourist hang-outs aren't the only places to meet locals, though. Just be aware that the more you move out of the zone where there are more foreigners than inhabitants of the country you are in, the more you are on their ground and should behave according to their rules. That can be part of the cultural experience. Some of the greatest events of my travels where when local friends took me along to parties – I had a chance to see the local culture from up close, and on some occasions met a lot of people who had never spoken to a foreigner before, and thus had genuine interest in speaking to me. + **Advantages** +Having a one night stand, a holiday flirt, or a long term relationship with someone from a different culture can be an interesting experience that could help you see your own culture in a different light as well. It is, somehow, something special, at least to me. I must admit I am a bit of a rare case in that I have been with more people that were _not_ from my country than with those that were – though I met not all of them while travelling. Somehow, there is a special kick to having sex with someone ""exotic"" (though one should be careful with that term, maybe, after all exotic is a very vague concept). +You, in turn, can also be ""exotic"" to the people you meet on your travels – and that could make them more interested in you. At home you might look like everyone else (of course everyone looks different, but you know what I mean), but just what makes you so normal at home could be seen as different and sexy abroad. Of course this doesn't mean going abroad will make everyone drool over you, but being a foreigner can give you some extra points, though this varies a lot depending on the country you are in and on whom you talk to. +If you are at your travel destination for a longer time, chances are the girl or guy you met there will be there during that time too – unlike another tourist, who might leave a lot earlier than you to go home or travel on. + **Disadvantages** +Even so, there will come a time when you have to say good bye. If all you wanted was a one night stand, this will be no problem. If, however, your adventure became something deeper, this might be very painful. Having stayed in various countries for extended amounts of time, I had to go through this process more than once, and more than once I was tempted to let everything be and just stay. I never did, though instead I cried the whole flight and then some more on the lonely evenings in Germany, where it always seems to be cold and rainy anyway... +The danger of misunderstandings due to different cultural background is of course higher. And maybe you don't even speak the same language. So maybe you are very sure you made it clear you don't want more than a fling – but has the other one really understood? The rules around dating and sex-etiquette can vary even within the same country depending on your circle of friends, or from city to countryside, or from more to less conservative background. That's even truer when it comes to other countries. + **Conclusions** +Combining sex and travel is fun. You are on vacation, you want to have a great time, so why not. However, don't set your mind onto that you must have sex on your vacation. Don't plan your travels around it – if it doesn't work out you might be quite disappointed. Instead, just have fun. +Now, you might ask, but where are the most beautiful women? And where are the best looking men? +You can probably already guess my answer – nowhere and everywhere. I am not a big fan of this question, because it is bound to stir feelings of national pride (yes, quite a few countries pride themselves with having the ""most beautiful women""), jealousy, and rejection... +In the end, beauty is a matter of taste, and if you are into blondes you might prefer Swedish women or men to those from Brazil, but someone else might be of a completely different opinion. And in the end each of them might find the most beautiful person in the world in the country they least expected them in." +890,Want to PM That Litster Lady?,RedHairedandFriendly,How To,2012-02-04,2012-02-04,2022-01-04 08:41:46,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/want-to-pm-that-litster-lady,Suggestions on how to get a more positive response from a PM.,"['Cyber', 'Cybering', 'Dating', 'Forums', 'Messaging', 'Private', 'Texting']",4.52,"Please read the following disclaimer: +This is only my opinion. +This is not a 100% sure thing and I cannot, nor do I guarantee success. +This is not going to cover every type of woman. +This is meant to be helpful, but it may not help at all. +This is advice that could work for both genders. +Once you are able to accept this, feel free to continue reading. If you can't and you think you're about to read the magic carpet book of how to fuck a Lady Litster, you are so wrong. +I've posted on the bulletin boards of Lit., since around May 2005, a month after joining the site. The bulletin boards, for those that aren't familiar with them, are similar to a mega-store or even a mega mall. You walk in and you are bombarded with various sites and tantalizing treats that make your heart race and your breath catch. +The beginning of this How To can be seen as a course for newbies; if you already know how to navigate the forums, you don't need the first few paragraphs and you can feel superior while reading them. +First, let's point something out. If you are not a registered member, you don't need this How To, because it will only work if you have an account with the site. It's free, so hop to it! The second thing, a PM is a Private Message between you and whomever you are communicating with. +The bulletin boards, upon first entry may blow your mind, so before posting take a minute to peruse the forums. There are several tabs at the top of the screen. If you aren't already there, click the ""HOME"" tab and you'll see a list entitled ""Main Literotica Forums"". Under that you'll find several forum titles, choose one that interests you and click on it. +For this submission, we'll click on ""Literotica Personals"". This link will slide you into one of the more popular places that women frequent. There are three sub-forums: The Playground, GLBT Personals, and the BDSM Personals. There will also be a list of thread titles available in the Literotica Personals forum. +Since, I am more familiar and comfortable in the forum titled ""The Playground,"" we'll be using that one for this little read. After clicking the sub-forum of said title, you'll be shown a new heading: Threads in Forum: The Playground. +This is where you can usually find me, if you're looking for me. But this isn't about me. It's about you and helping YOU become more comfortable about PMing women you don't know. +Pick a title that draws your interest and slip into it. Today I've chosen: Word Association for the Dirty Mind. I click it and see that the rules (found in the first post) explain that the poster is to read the last post and reply with the first dirty/naughty word that they can think of in response to the last one given. It sounds simple enough, so I post. +Eventually the post is answered, and I post again, over and over the game is played. In time, though I decide to go to another thread that has a catchy title. When I have done this enough times, someone may find themselves drawn to my posts, and they decide to send me a Private Message. +You would think that my heart would do a somersault and I would be excited and nervous about receiving a message from someone I don't know. Is it a friend? An admirer? Another author? Who is it? The mystery however is short lived, since the PM message you get telling you about the PM has the sender's name on it. +Let's pretend I don't know the Lister and the name is unfamiliar to me. +Do I get excited? Aroused? Curious? +No. +I cringe. +I cringe because I receive many messages from various women and men on Lit.'s bulletin boards who are seeking only an opportunity to get into my cyber panties. These messages often come from individuals who have not posted on the boards, and show no desire to. They are also poorly constructed and often lack depth. +Some of the worst are the ones that make my eyes hurt from the strain of trying to read what exactly they are trying to say. Other messages come with links, or images of the senders' genitalia. I, like many posters on Lit., find these types of messages to be the most rude and crass of all messages. So before you hit that send button, make sure that you know the person you're sending it to wants to see those types of things. If you don't, you're likely going to leave empty-handed. +You should take the time to either post in a particular thread with the person you're interested in or you should lurk on the threads and find something they post that honestly draws your interest. Lurking on the thread is when you just sit at your computer and read various posts; you rarely if ever make a contribution to the forum at all. Lurking is not a smart way to get a PM answered. +With that said, you need to avoid post stalking -- another form of harassing a Litster. Post stalking involves posting after the particular lady of interest in every thread, all the time. It makes the Litster uncomfortable and you need to avoid following them. +When you PM someone, form complete and coherent sentences that make the woman feel she's more valuable to you than just a cyber fuck. You have to imagine Lit., as a high class bar and go in knowing that there is a woman in there that will take notice of you, if you show her respect. Don't assume because she's on an adult web site, that encourages writing and amateur pictures, that she's looking for a cyber lover. +Also, I don't care if you are PMing from your phone. I don't care if you don't have a full size, slide out keypad on your cell -- DO NOT send women a PM with text talk as your come on line! ""R U Hot 4 Me?"" Really, is that sexy? I don't think so. +If you know how to read this, you probably know how to form a complete sentence and/or thought. If not, you're going to do really poorly in the PMing Red and her friends department. +You've got the lady's interest by sharing with her what drew you to her. She's responded and has done so in a manner that doesn't read: ""Oh thank-you. Now fuck me, baby."" Instead she's simply thanked you for your kind words. +The simple thank-you response is a hard line to walk. Did she respond in a way that closes the conversation? Or did she respond in a way that leads you to send her another PM? +You don't know! That is the mystery of the PM game! +With trepidation you send her a message saying she's welcomed, and that you had also seen she had posted on xxx thread and you found her comment interesting. She may message you back, sharing why she wrote what she did, she may not. If you don't hear from her -- LEAVE HER ALONE! This is the virtual scene where the woman grabs her drink off the bar and walks away. You've not been invited to follow her, so don't. +This also means that you do not go back to the thread she was in and begin to bad mouth her or harass her, just because she didn't show you the interest you thought you were entitled to. Accept that she doesn't want to engage in friendly banter or sexual innuendo. Just be her friend on the board, and nothing else. A cyber fuck is a dime a dozen, a friend is a rare find. +If you're lucky, you refresh your page and she's answered you back! Your pulse is racing and your palms begin to sweat. The interest just may be mutual. So once again you must craft your words wisely. +Share with her something about yourself, don't lie. I know it's tempting, this is the internet and there is a sense of security that comes with it. You shouldn't lie in a high class bar, so why lie at Lit.? +The PM is sent and answered again! You're on cloud nine! +Take a moment to step away from the bar and look at the lady. Don't quickly PM her back and give her a list of your sexual fantasies or demand that she be subservient to your Dominate nature. Don't tell her to call you Daddy and DO NOT assign her a pet name without her permission! I advise you against sharing that you want her to spank you and make you call her Mistress. Rein the boys in and act like an adult, not like a virgin in a sex shop. +After conversing with the lady and discovering that you both have a lot in common, you may find yourself jealous over her posting with other men. You need to accept that this is going to happen. A woman loves attention and flirting online is a way to get it 24/7 and yes, some women are 24 hour flirts. It's who they are, and honestly what probably attracted you to her in the first place. So before you start thinking you've marked your territory with your PM pal, you need to find out if you are her only PM buddy. +Don't be surprised if she says no. There are no rules in PMing one person and one person only. +That is called exclusivity and that is something that must be discussed and agreed upon by both Litsters. If you don't clarify that is what you're looking for, then you have no rights what-so-ever in expecting her to give it to you. +So don't pound your chest and proclaim to all that she's your woman unless she gives you permission to do so. Another good thing to keep in mind is that she may ask the same of you. She may want you to be her one-and-only. Being a cyberslut can be a turn off to both genders. +Some of you may be thinking this is a lot of bullshit. The women of Literotica are only here for fast fucks and quick cums. They don't have substance, style or class. They just want to get off, as quickly as a man does. You'd be wrong. Most all the ladies that post on the boards are there for one reason and one reason only -- to talk to people. +The women you'll meet on the forums come from all walks of life, and all different backgrounds. Some are married, dating, or single. Others are looking for love, while others are just looking to pass the time. They are all educated women whether their education comes from the highest colleges in the land, or the school of hard knocks. Don't underestimate the intelligence level of these ladies. +A quick list of what was covered above and few things I may have not put into detail, but is good advice: + 1. Post or lurk and learn about the woman you're interested in (note I said woman -- not women) -- including reviewing her profile. + 2. Do not send out a mass PM to dozens of Lit. ladies (make the one feel special). + 3. Write in complete sentences, even if it means taking the time to form them on your phone. + 4. If she doesn't answer, do not bother her again. If she does, tread carefully. + 5. Engage in a friendly conversation and don't try to play inside her cyber panties without her ok. + 6. If things become intimate and you want exclusivity, you both must agree to it. + 7. Do not underestimate the intelligence of a Lady Litster. +For further help in how NOT to pick up women on Lit., please visit this thread: Your Best or Worst PM/IM Opening Lines... +Good luck! +~ Red +_Thanks to BradBigBrain for helping me with editing, suggestions on content, and formatting.Also, a big thank-you to the Ladies of Literotica, who read through my initial idea and offered insight from their own experiences with random PMs._" +891,We Finally Did IT!!,Johnsexlife,How To,2011-07-03,2011-07-03,2022-01-04 08:41:47,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/we-finally-did-it,First Swing and More.,"['Oral Sex', 'Pussy Eating', 'Swinging', 'Tripple Penetration']",3.73,"My wife of 7 years and I do a lot of fantasying during and before sex and we both get really turned on by Literotica stories especially if she thinks they are real. +A typical lovemaking session starts off with her reading Literotica stories to me while she strokes my erection with KY jelly. As she gets into the story she slips a vibrator into her pussy and as the story gets hotter she will climax several times. As the story ends she sucks my penis while inserting the vibrator into her pussy. She says if she lies on her stomach while sucking me the vibrator moves in and out of her until she has a mega orgasm which makes me immediately fill her mouth with tons of cum. +I have had a sheltered sex life but Chrissie has had a wild sex life since she was very young. I have convinced to tell me about all of the encounters she has had including 3 rapes, foursomes, threesomes, etc with well over 100 different men over the years. Needless to say I become very excited and tell her how I would love to see her getting screwed by several men. She keeps saying maybe someday but we both chicken out. +Chrissie often tells me the things she has done sexually are child's play compared to what her best friend Pam has done. When I ask her she says she can't get into the details but hints Pam and her husband Ryan may do a little discreet swinging. +The thought of us swinging with them really turns me on and knowing them I would bet that is all it would be sex for sex sake with no emotional repercussions after. +Finally after thinking about this for years I worked out a plan to make it happen and knew one is started rolling Chrissie would soon get into it with a passion. +One day I finally got the nerve to bring the subject up with Pam. I knew she had some unfulfilled sexual feeling about Chrissie and she might agree. +When I told Pam about the plan she seemed a little hesitant but soon got excited about the idea. +Because Chrissie was once into drugs and alcohol many, many years ago and often could not recall all the details of her younger sexual exploits because she was high we figured getting her high would do the trick. +The plan went well as we arrived at Pam's for the evening and she took out so strong pot. Chrissie wanted me to try it as I had never done it before. I said I would if she joined me, Pam, Ryan and Ryan's brother. Well we smoke up a storm and Chrissie was obviously high but maybe not high enough. Ryan's brother had some coke with him and Chrissie snorted a few lines. Wow she was flying. +She was seated on the couch between Ryan and his brother and in no time at all the three of them were kissing and groping each other as Pam and I watched. +Soon Ryan's hand was up Chrissie's shirt and he was massaging her clit as Ryan's brother had his hand in her blouse rubbing her large breasts. After about 15 minutes Chrissie had lost her panties, blouse and bra and was stroking Ryan's and his brothers' dicks as they rubbed her breasts and figure fucked her to her first orgasm of the evening. +Not to be left out I too had Pam naked and was sucking her cunt as she blew me in the classic 69 position. I quickly came in her mouth and she then went to eat Chrissie's cunt as Chrissie had Brian's cock in her mouth and his brother's cock in her hand. +I could never make Chrissie come orally and she said no man had ever made her come but Pam had her coming over and over again gently licking her clit while slowly fucking her with a realistic dildo that was at least 9 inches long. Meanwhile Brian offered his cock to Chrissie and she gladly started sucking & stoking it. You see sucking cock is her favorite thing to do and she secretly always wanted to suck Brian off. Chrissie was soon massaging Brian's ball and shaft until he just exploded into her mouth. Chrissie loved it and sucked him for another 5 minutes to get it all. As soon as Brian pulled out of her mouth his brother replaced him and he too soon pulled out and came all over her beautiful breasts. Within seconds Brian and Pam were liking the cum from Chrissie's breast as Brian's brother finger fucked her to another orgasm. +God I never had been so hard in my life. I quickly buried my cock into Pam and fucked her until we both came. Meanwhile Chrissie was being fucked by Brian from behind as she blew his brother for a second time. Chrissie was loving it and kept telling Brian to fuck her deeper and faster. You could see Chrissie's cunt juice pouring down her thighs. Like the grand finale at the Fourth of July fireworks display all five of us seemed to orgasm at the same time. +The party was not over yet as the four of us would take Chrissie on at the same time. Ryan's brother had Chrissie lower herself on his erection as Brian slid his cock into Chrissie ass. I got down between Chrissie and Ryan's brother to lick both her cunt and Ryan's brother's balls as Pam straddled Chrissie face to let her eat my come out of Pam's cunt. +We stayed the night and she sex was nonstop. +At breakfast the next morning Pam & Brian told us they were regular swingers belonging to a group of 12 professional couples whom are tested for STDS weekly and would like us to join them as regulars that evening. I got an immediate erection hoping that Chrissie would agree even though the pot and coke had worn off. She glanced over at my erection smiled and said absolutely YES. +That night the four of us drove to a large home on a nearby lake to meet the group. As advertised they were all professionals and pillars of the community. +Mary the hostess explained the rules to us and we agreed. She said they had a tradition that the female member of the new couple would have sex with all of the men there as the others cheered on but this was strictly voluntary and not mandatory. +Chrissies eyes light up as she quickly glanced at the twelve men ranging in age from late 20's to late 50's whom were all sporting obvious erections. She quickly disrobed and said "" What are you waiting for take me"" I almost came in my pants. +The group led Chrissie to ""the playroom"" which was covered my 8 king-size mattresses. The host a famous local attorney was the first to enter Chrissies pussy and slowly entered her with the largest cock I had ever seen at least 12 inches as a local surgeon entered her mouth. Chrissie was really into it and she soon not only had a cock in her mouth & cunt but also her ass and one in each hand. In less than 45 minutes she had fucked, sucked or jerked off all 12 men. Cum was oozing from her ass, mouth & cunt. Her breasts, face and stomach were drenched in sticky cum. +As the men finished with Chrissie the women now all naked joined Chrissie on the mattress licking every drop of cum off her entire body. As they kissed her, licked her cunt, breast, face and stomach. Chrissie then had a shattering orgasm which lasted all of ten minutes. +Needless to say we are now regular club members." +892,Weapons of Mass Seduction,herecomestherain,How To,2003-11-19,2003-11-19,2022-01-04 08:41:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/weapons-of-mass-seduction,Wear something sexy and encourage your lover to undress you.,"['Beautiful Desirable', 'Dress Makes', 'Erotic Tension', 'Love', 'Lover Feel', 'Sexy Lingerie', 'Taking Time', 'Undressed Slowly']",4.58,"""The prettiest dresses are worn to be taken off"" Jean Cocteau +There's no doubt about it. Playfulness and a sense of adventure in the bedroom are very attractive traits. Dressing up in sexy lingerie and bedroom wear is an opportunity for a woman to be playful, to feel very beautiful, to explore the power of desire and of being desired. It's a chance to play dress ups, to become the boudoir mistress, the siren or the virginal bride. +Wearing something glamorous and sexy everyday boosts your self esteem and helps you to get in the mood for a hot evening ahead. It doesn't need to be big budget. In the right hands a garment as simple and innocent as a white slip can be transformed into a weapon of mass seduction. Think Elizabeth Taylor in her sizzling performance as Maggie in the 1958 film Cat On A Hot Tin Roof. +Go out to dinner or to the movies wearing gorgeous stockings, no panties, and you'll be reminded of your near nakedness every time you sit down…This secret knowledge is a powerful aphrodisiac. It's great for building anticipation, awareness of your body, driving your lover wild and just plain turning yourself on. +Experiment with the kinds of fabrics you wear. In talking with women friends, I'm surprised how specific and varied preferences and tastes are when it comes to sexy bedroom wear. Some folks love soft, slippery, shiny satin. Lots of men love the wispy see through effect of sheer fabrics. Anything in tight, clingy fabric does it for others, and a combination of all of the above seems pretty popular too. +Sexy garments are not only a treat for the viewer. Wearing sensuous fabrics is a real pleasure for the wearer. Soft plush velvet feels so beautiful and lace with its tantalising glimpses of what lies below can make a woman feel and look just gorgeous. Slinky micro fibre garments tease the bare skin, like being caressed by soft hands. Silk has a luxurious skin like quality and the wonderful ability to capture a woman's special scent like no other cloth. +The gorgeous thing about sexy lingerie and bedroom wear is that you don’t need to be model thin to look sensational. You do need to enjoy what you're wearing and feel comfortable. Nothing surpasses the sexiness of a self confident woman who is literally comfortable in her own skin. Feeling beautiful, desirable and sexy in your own head actually makes you beautiful, desirable and sexy. +If you are on the curvy side like me there is a great opportunity to play it up. One of my favourite outfits is a very simple A- line lacy short chemise style slip that works like a dream every time! Check out some of the websites of lingerie suppliers who cater for larger sizes. These women look amazing, all rounded and curvy, making the most of their great assets. Cleavage can be hard to resist! Maybe you love your legs, your shoulders or breasts, find ways to show off, emphasise and enjoy your best bits. +Taking the time to dress up makes your lover feel great because you've made an effort especially for them. Gentlemen remember to compliment your lover when she's gone to the effort to dress up. Be specific about what you love about her. Compliment her, not just the clothing. ""You look so hot in that…"" +A quick word on practicalities. I absolutely love gorgeous stay up stockings. Girls if you can, buy the ones at about 20 denier as they'll withstand a little rough and tumble, last longer and look and feel just as fabulous as the super sheer 10 denier that won't survive the touch of one calloused hand. Gentlemen we love the big strong hands but they can be lethal on fine hosiery, please keep your nails trimmed. +And finally to the fun bit…the undressing part… +Dr Jack Morin in his wonderful book, The Erotic Mind says ""Clothing acts as a concealment, cloaking the treasures underneath…Passions sometimes demand that clothes be unceremoniously ripped out of the way. For many people, however, the transition from fully clothed to completely naked (or semi naked) is much more exciting when it is slow and deliberate."" Listen up ladies and gentlemen because Dr Jack knows what he's talking about. +Many people, especially women like to be undressed slowly. Very, very slowly. It is both very erotic and tantalizing. It also sort of suggests that you are valued and worth taking time over. Savour and enjoy each moment. +Slowness and restraint can be incredibly erotic. One of the sexiest and most memorable film scenes I've ever seen is in Jane Campion's 1993 film, The Piano. Campion builds scenes where the erotic tension is excruciating. Who can forget the spellbinding moment when Harvey Keitel puts just his one of his fingers on the leg flesh showing through the small hole in Holly Hunter's thick black stocking? Or when he kisses her neck above the very modest collar of her dress as she plays the piano for him? +In other movies in historical settings, heavily dressed woman are sent into a swoon when their amorous admirers peel back a glove to kiss the soft silky skin on the inside of their wrist, very intimate and deliberate. In glove wearing times a simple ""naked"" handshake was a risqué thrill. Remember that sometimes little, subtle gestures can be very moving and erotic. +Just to restate important information for lovers of women…most women love to be slowly undressed or partially undressed, slowly being the key here. The key points; + ***** Great seduction is about building anticipation and erotic tension. + ***** Women enjoy being kissed through fabric, flesh being revealed by degrees, kissed as it is revealed. + ***** Touch over fabric then under, kiss and touch along the lines of where clothing meets flesh instead of diving right in. + ***** Don't be in a hurry to take it all off, leave something on for that delicious semi dressed, more naked than naked feeling… + ***** Lift a hem line slowly to reveal a smooth thigh just waiting to be stroked. + ***** Play with shoulder straps, is there anything more gorgeous than having a lover shift a shoulder strap to one side just to place a little kiss on the flesh under? +The next time you're with your lady love, spend a little more time in this highly sensitive but sometimes neglected area. + ***** Kiss along the tops of a shoulder, along collar bones, around the nape of the neck. + ***** Gently nip at that spot where shoulder meets neck, this is heavenly seduction at its best. + ***** Slowly peel away a sleeve to reveal a smooth rounded shoulder, lavish some love here. +This is a very beautiful and erotic way to make your lover feel cherished and desired. Trust me you will be repaid, your efforts will be rewarded! +As the seduction proceeds…""Soon she won't object to fingers that stray under her skirt-hem and linger at her lightly knotted waistband; when her eyes are dreamy and her breathing's harsh send the servants away"" Mallyana Vatsyayana (2nd century) The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana; 2nd century) +Don't let the world tell you that's its just men who are the ""visual"" sex, one of the sexiest sights in our bedroom is the view I get kneeling up facing my lover, looking down to see his hand disappearing between my knees, under my slip... there is something very forbidden and downright naughty about having a hand up your dress. It makes me feel very womanly, wanton and desirable. I love it! +Taking license with one of my favourite quotes…remember that ""women take longer to undress because they need to slow down for the curves."" Slow down and have fun negotiating those dangerous curves! + _Please leave feedback, I'd love to hear about your experiences and what you think of this article._" +893,The Weekend,AnnHara,How To,2015-10-25,2015-10-25,2022-01-04 08:40:36,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-weekend-35,Ann enjoys a wild weekend of solo sex.,"['Creative', 'Masturbation', 'Vibrators']",3.74,"Ann smiled coyly and responded with a warm, ""Wonderful thanks. And how was your weekend?"" when her coworkers asked how her weekend was. She yearned to share the details but knew that would blow the minds of her staid coworkers. They would never be able to imagine what a literally wonderful ""fucking"" weekend it had been. Ann had taken the entire weekend and spent it on herself. From the moment, she got home Friday until she left for work on Monday, She focused on solely on herself and her pleasure. +First thing Ann did was pull all the curtains and strip off her clothes. She had made a sexual to do list that she perused for the most tempting options. She turned on the play list that she had made with songs specifically for masturbation. Then, she got down to business. +Her list had activities for every room. Ann chose to start in the bedroom. She had read earlier about bondage and masturbation. The thought intrigued her. She had fantasized about being bound and at the mercy of a lover, but had never tried it. Carefully, she bound one leg to right bedpost and the other to the left bedpost making sure the knots were tight. She felt exposed, but in a good way. Forced into a spread eagle position, she began to have fun. She started with her fingers paying special attention to her clitoris, rubbing it to and fro. She began to feel the blood rush to her organs. Quickly, She switched to the massager She had purchased earlier in the day. Starting with the low setting, Ann moved the massager slowly up and down and across her vulva. She began to grow increasingly warm and her pelvis began to tighten. She switched the massager to high and held it directly over her clitoris. Bam! It hit. She felt her thighs try to tighten against the massager, but they were held open. Her body began to jerk. Her ankles hurt as she tried to close in to no avail. She felt herself shaking as she came. Ann moaned in intense pleasure. This was going to be a very, very good weekend. +Next, Ann moved to the living room, where she began to engage in more traditional pursuits. Laying a towel out to protect the couch. She laid down and began to play with her massager. First, She turned it on low and moved it slowly up and down over her clitoris. Carefully paced she paced herself. When she could feel the tension rising, she turned off the massager for a minute. She laid their exposed and shaking gently. She wanted it so bad, but she held off knowing the pleasure would be stronger the more she waited. Her hands kept moving down and she would hold them back. Finally, when she could stand it no longer, she turned the massager back on. She increased the speed to high. She continued to move it slowly up and down, up and down her clit, until she could barely stand it. Again, she turned it off and waited. When the moment was unbearable, she turned it on and held it directly over her clit applying pressure as she did, until she began to shake all over. Her whole body and mind where fused into one mighty convulsion. Then it was over, she lay there spent and content. +After a quiet interlude, Ann was at it again. This time she am on the rocking chair. Ann had set up a mirror before the rocking chair, so she could watch the show. It was like your own free porn. She had to laugh at some of the faces she made. The rocking of the chair and the rhythm of the massager complemented each other beautifully. She took breaks and fingered herself to make the experience last longer. Watching her fingers glide over her womanhood was weird at first, but then she really got into it. It was beautiful to watch and the look of bliss on her face. Much better than chocolate. +Saturday was a day of exploration. The guest bedroom is where she keep her art supplies, so she decided to get creative in there. Once, again Ann stripped. She grabbed a paintbrush and chose a bright yellow paint and brown. She proceeded to paint her large and pendulous breasts. The brush tickled as she gently began to paint. While painting the brown around her nipples, she began to swell in other regions. Still she focused on her art. The result was two enormous beautiful sunflowers. Then she laid back ignoring the mess she was making. Laying among the paint, she took the largest paint brush she could find and began to explore her womanhood. The brush tickled at first and then felt luscious as she swirled it around. Sufficiently aroused, she turned the brush around and thrust it into her vagina. It was too little, so she grabbed a handful of brushes and stuck them all in. That was better. The different brushes hitting in different places at the same time, again and again, felt stunning. The paint on her back was cool to the touch, but the liquid dripping down her legs was hot. She was a beautiful, hot, mess. Nothing to do, but to clean up +The bathroom had always been one of her favorite places. There is nothing like a long hot shower to relax you after a hard day. Already naked, she stepped in and unscrewed the shower head. The stream of warm water gushed out. Quickly, she repositioned the spray up toward her vulva. The warm, wet sensation made her weak in the knees. Ann leaned back against the shower wall. With one hand, she held the shower hose. With the other hand, she gently pulled back her labia and directed the water directly at her clitoris. In no time, she began to tingle and quiver. In the heat of the moment, Ann cried out, ""Oh my goodness!"" over and over. The wave subsided but she kept the water shooting toward her clit. Ann waited and then it happened again. She came again. Just as strong as the first time. She shook all over and screamed in ecstasy. Thank heavens the neighbors were not home. Finally, she leaned back against the shower wall exhausted, yet proud. What a truly glorious experience! +This is by no means the sum of her weekend, but it gives you a taste. Even as she writes this, she felt the blood rushing downward. An early lunch may be in order. She is on the menu." +894,Welcome Back to Hell,Noira,How To,2012-01-17,2012-01-17,2022-01-04 08:41:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/welcome-back-to-hell,How to write draft two of a novel.,"['Editing', 'Novel', 'Story', 'Writing']",4.83,"_Writing the second draft of your novel._ +Finally finished? Blissful freedom? That's not a light at the end of a tunnel, that's an oncoming train. +If you have just finished writing your novel, set it down, take a step away, and lock that sucker in a cupboard. Seal it up with chains. Light it on fire. Destroy it. You thought you had to tear your soul out the last round? Welcome to round two, where your novel comes back from the dead with a vengeance and stomps upon the heart analogy gifted to you by a wonderful wizard (who, might I note, will not edit your novel for you. He isn't that wonderful). + **Step one: A novel is like a fine wine. (It might also make you whine.)** +Give your novel a bit of time to sit and stew. Like a good wine, like a good soup, like a good _many_ things, a novel needs a little bit of time. It'll let the characters mingle like the oh so magnificent flavors of a good chowder and the fermentation process will do one other thing: it'll let you forget. You need a little bit of time to forget how much it hurt to tear your heart into pieces and mash it onto the page. You need a bit of time to forget how much you hate that scene. Right now, you're emotionally attached to your novel and you need to cut the strings and drown your sorrows in a pot of tea. +Come back when you're sober. Didn't know you could get drunk on tea? Try writing a novel. You can get drunk on anything as long as the words are flowing. +The time you need to take depends on just how involved you were with the novel. Trust me when I say you need the time to forget that you hate this scene and this character, or the red pen will come on too strong. Trust me when I say you need time to forget how much you loved this character and this scene. +The second draft is cruel. There is no exact length of time. A week, a month, a half a year. Come back when you can read your novel with fresh eyes, and be excited to read a sentence you'd entirely forgotten. + **1.5:** +Don't take too long to pick up your novel again, though. While it's exciting to read it as though it were someone else's story, you need to keep a little bit of the enthusiastic attitude from completing a work of art as well. Editing is a tough job. I would not personally wait more than a year, for fear of new and exciting sirens calling from the swamp. +Who wants to do the chore of editing when you have a new universe to unfold? + **Step Two: Meet your new best friend.** +No matter how you wrote your novel in round one, you're about to be acquainted to someone you might not like very much: Mr. Outline. Our friendly neighborhood synopsis will help you control your story in draft two. Where draft one might have been a wild explosion of character diarrhea onto a page, creating an outline is going to help you tame that stomach bug into something a little more controllable. +So write out a play by play outline of your first draft if you didn't write one to begin with and take a look at the cards. Novels follow a few standard patterns and that cohesive plot foundation is going to be what you're building draft two on: the beginning, the middle, the climax, and the end. +You might have fifty-seven subplots, but you need to be able to find a controlled thread through the story, which follows the protagonist. This is what you're going to build draft two on: this is the foundation of your novel. +Chop your novel up into little tiny scene sized pieces and then remove all of the unnecessary bits until you're left with just the plot sized piece. The plot sized piece should finish this statement: ""my main character wants this, but..."" +Understand there is a difference between a plot and a premise. Imagine that there is a doorway. Yes, it can be a fancy Victorian archway covered in vines. Or perhaps just an ordinary screen door. Maybe it's hooked up to a vast digital system, and maybe the door was handed down from generations past. But it's still just a door. The premise is the door. The plot is what slams the door shut in the main character's face, and how they get it open again. Your premise might very well be ""nanobots are causing men to become infertile"" but that's not a plot until your main character discovers that he's the only one left on the planet with fertile sperm and must single-handedly save the human race, but in the process destroy his marriage with his very traditional, monogamous wife. +The plot is what happens. If you can't bring your novel down to a sentence about what happens, maybe you need to rethink the action in the novel. What does your main character want, and what's keeping that character from getting it? +Step two might seem fiddly, but it'll save you a lot of pain if you discover the fault in your foundation before you try redecorating. + **Step three: The size of a salable novel.** +The average novel ranges between 70,000 to 100,000 words. Unless you're writing grand epic fantasy, you'll have a hard time selling a novel with more words and a hard time selling a novel with less words (the market for novellas isn't all that great). If you're not aiming for traditional publishing, don't panic and write whatever you will. But if you are, now is the time to consider the length of your novel. As a firm believer in ""it takes as many words as it takes to tell the story"", I cringe to give this advice. Yet, as a firm believer in ""tell the story that needs to be told, not all of the bullshit around it"", I know it needs to be said. +In step two, I told you to become aware of the foundation of your novel. You know what the story you're telling is made out of. Now you're going to look at the walls. With your puzzle piece structure in hand, cut away the unnecessary pieces. +Everything in your novel should relate to the most basic, most rudimentary version of a plot it claims to have. Every scene must have a purpose. And nothing needs to be shown more than once. The subplot about his mother-in-law? Does it show character development? Keep it. But do you need to tell us about his strained relationship with his mother-in-law five times when the story is about how he blasts into space from Winnipeg? +Make the painful choices here. If it doesn't boost the plot, let it go. +If your story is too simple, you may need to take the opposite approach. Try adding a subplot. Add a new character. The amazing thing is how it's so much easier to add than take away. If you're finding it difficult, just be confident in your short story or novella—they have their places. +Make a new outline from your foundation. +And don't skimp. Make it a detailed outline. You're crafting your improved novel from this, you can't write from the seat of your pants this time. + **Step four: Extrapolate.** +Well? You already figured out how to write a novel. Do it again, but better, and with more dynamics and other buzzwords. Fall in love and break your heart over and over again. This time's the chore, where you follow your brand new, careful outline, trying to make the best out of your concrete foundation. +You've already got your scissors, your cleaver, your robe and wizard hat. Use them. +You'll make it out just fine, and enthusiastically sign the final two words so long as you have the gumption to do it. +You're d— +Oh yeah. I forgot to tell you earlier: _you have to break something to fix it._ + **Step five: Fuck, not again.** +Your second draft won't be perfect. In fact, your second draft probably fucked everything up and you find yourself looking at a misshapen child nothing like the beauty you remember giving birth to. Don't let the hate take over, though—your first draft sucked. And now you get to do it all over again. Examine the novel. Examine the structure. Find out where it went wrong, curse yourself and your computer and your novel into a thousand different damnations. You have all the time in the world, but this time, don't let your novel stew. Write it again. +And again. And again. +There's no secret, only patience and a lot of coffee, tea, and rum. +Run it through the refiner's fire again. Only then, once you're satisfied, can you sit back and hand your novel to an editor... +What, you thought this was over? +Have a drink, it's on me." +895,What a Girl Wants,babydoll4you,How To,2011-09-09,2011-09-09,2022-01-04 08:41:50,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/what-a-girl-wants-4,It is THE question to ask when you decide to enter the frenzy.,"['Dating', 'Dating Advice', 'Romance', 'Sex Advice']",3.9,"For many of us that phrase is more than just a movie title or a song lyric. It is THE question to ask when you decide to enter the frenzied world of dating. URNA is not your average dating and social site either. It is the best for finding special girls like me. With so many options and ways to meet people your interested in, finding the woman of you dreams can be a whole lot easier for you. Whatever kind of woman your interested in can be found here. In order to get her you need to know how so I'm going to try very hard to be your personal matchmaker. +Why you decided to explore dating is different for each of us. How you date and who you date is also quite unique. Each of us looks for different things in a partner weather it's just a one nite escapade or a life long commitment. In sales they call it market research so that is the theme you need to think about. If you live in Alaska it would be really hard to show up there with a truckload of ice and sell it for top dollar. It can be done and there are people that can do it but it's a really tough sell. +Dating is a lot like sales, you have to know your market. You have to compete with a lot of other people to close the deal. You also have to know how and when to close the deal. Think about it. we have all bought a car. We had an idea of what we could afford. We knew what color we wanted, and we knew what make and model would be the best for our lifestyle. +If your completely broke and on the run from the landlord, a Bentley is probably not in your budget. So why go in there and haggle with the dealer all day and then walk away at the last minute angry and frustrated because he wont give you the keys. He checked you out while you talked and did his market research he discovered that you are not in his target market. Dating is the very same way. If you cant afford to get in the country club and dress like the jet set crowd you probably are note going to find a date there. So why struggle with it and argue with them, just accept that for TODAY or RIGHT NOW you don't fit in. Go home and get busy and come back later when you are READY. Believe me timing is everything when it comes to closing the deal. +So, what is it that you need to know to date those special girls that have more than most? You have to know your market, you need to know what the girls like and what they don't. Honey this is not a suggestion it is a fact. If you have no idea what the object of you affection likes or dislikes you will never get her to go out on a date with you. +The only way to discover that and more is to ask questions, don't be afraid to do it either. Even if it's a silly question like how long her hair is. Trust me she will tell you that and more, so take a lot of notes. We love to talk about our hair and everything that goes with it. Women love to talk, so if you can get us to talk just sit there and nod your head while you write down all the clues we give you. +When you buy a car, do you just walk in point and say that one? Of course not. Well nobody else does either. So ask her what she is interested in and why. Trust me on this fella's, We will tell you. The beauty of it is you don't need to say much you just need to pay attention. A woman will tell you everything you need to know to get in her knickers. All you have to do is listen to her and know when to close the deal. Be patient though some of are like Alaska, in fact most of us are. So patience is key when you are trying to date us. Just because we say no today coes not mean we will say no tomorrow. +There are some very important things you need to know about us. We are like every other woman you see on the street. There is NO DIFFENCE. We love to be seduced, romanced and seen as beautiful. Many guys think that because we used to be like them that we will be easier or more open to crude behavior. This is utterly and completely wrong. We are females now and the things that work on a genetic woman will work on us too. In addition the things that don't work on genetic women wont work on us either. +the following is a simple and easy to follow guide for you fella's that want to date the girls of your dreams. Keep in mind that each girl is different and some of these tips will work and some wont. If they don't produce instant results just relax, don't get flustered or mad. Just try something else. Nothing says desperate like harassment and badgering. If she says no just deal with it an walk away she may change her mind and say yes later. +First and foremost, be polite and sincere : +If you open with ""hey baby, sexy, hot stuff"", you are not going to get very far. We know it's a come on. Most of us get turned off the moment we hear it. It shows your not really interested in us but in an adventure or just a fling. The vast majority of us really want to have a steady boyfriend or even a husband. Moves like that exclude you almost immediately unless you already know us really well. The best move is to be interested in us. Ask us how our day is, or if we are having a good day and then WAIT for us to answer. Patience is the key. Slow and steady will win every time over fast and frenzied. We know what your ultimately after and pressuring us will not get you there faster. If you play your cards right we will give you that and so much more. +Second, be engaged in the conversation : +If you really want to talk to the girl then talk to her. Don't just stand there looking around the place. have something to say. She may not agree with it but, it will defiantly keep her interest in YOU going. Always be respectful though even if you disagree with her. Don't decide to dump her just because she is in favor of something you don't like or disagree with. Pay attention and follow along. If you are distracted then say so, don't be afraid to walk away and talk later. She will think more highly of you if you are honest with her than if you try to deceive her. +Third, be honest with her : +Nobody likes a liar and she wont either. We get lied to a lot so for us it's a HUGE deal if you lie. If your a bank teller fine. Don't tell her some story about how you are the bank president because she WILL figure it out. Once that happens it's over for you. If you are uncomfortable with the truth or not being upfront with us how can we be sure your going to show up for that first date. We need to feel safe and secure so if we cant trust you then why would we want to put our safety in your hands. We talk to each other constantly so the last thing you want is to get on our blacklist as somebody who is dishonest. +Fourth, don't be a cheapskate : +I understand that we all have bills and expenses but don't low ball the date. We are not looking for somebody to take care of us, but we do want somebody who can take care of themselves. You don't need to be Donald Trump but you should be able to afford a cover charge and a few drinks. So many guys blow this one. We spend an incredible amount of money to look as good as we do. So why would you expect us to give it up for free. Genetic women don't and we wont either. as the old saying goes ""you have to pay to play"". Never ever ask us for money! That will blow any chance you ever had of being with us. Permanently! +Fifth, dress the part : +A pair of sneakers and jeans is fine for working on your car. For a date it's not. Dress well, put on a nice shirt and a pair of slacks. Think about how well we dress and ask yourself do we want to be seen on the arm of dilitant? Our apearance is one of the most important things to us. So you need to know it's going to be someting we look at closely. If your too lazy to iron your shirt we are not going to want to be seen with you. I can't stress this enough fella's you need to clean up a little. We spend hours making sure we look as feminine and womanly as possible. You have to do that also if you want to succeed with us. +Sixth, have a good profile : +This one is so incredibaly important. If you want us to be interested, you need to give us something to look at. I cant tell you the number of times I visit a guys profile before I agree to go out with him. Trust me on this guys we will look at your page here constantly. You have a fantasy about us and we have a fantasy about you too. Give us someting to read and to look at. Put up a few pictures so we can see what kind of life we will have with you. Tell us what your looking for so we can figure out how to dress for you. Tell us what you like and we will get interested in it for you. A well written profile on URNA is the biggest selling tool you have don't waste it.

There was even a movie recently, with Mel Gibson, about our secret feminine thoughts and desires, men spend hours trying to figure us out and what we need, but do we try to figure them out? You don’t see many about what men need and want, and they can be as mysterious to us, as we are to them. All women think they need to do is, rope ‘em, hog tie ‘em and throw ‘em in the barn…well men ain’t cattle girls, they know how to open that barn door even if we get them in there. +Usually all you read is bitter accounts by angry cold women, about why men aren’t worth much, and how to avoid the ones who may not be easy to catch, complete with titles and types and assessments of why you don’t want one like THAT… Well, ladies, I catch them…and if you want a good one, well, you better start figuring out what he wants or you aren’t going to get him, let alone keep him. My men are trying to figure out how to keep me, not escape me. +Every woman knows men are into chemistry, although what it is, is a bit unclear. What it is is sex appeal, it is, they want to appeal to us sexually, and for us to appeal to them sexually, is really all that is, it’s not looks or weight, or height or make up, it’s how we look at them and how we make them feel, if we make them feel like males, deep inside, they’re attracted to us. They’ll admit to that readily enough, but to get inside the mind of a man, to learn what it is that makes him choose to stay and commit? That’s the secret ladies, they have to want to commit to us. Most of us can all do enough to get them to stay for breakfast at any time. It’s keeping hold of them that’s tough. And to us, we want that commitment and they know it, but many of us want it because their paycheck comes with it. They want their money’s worth, and that is fair, girls, it is. They aren’t about to tell us this though, because they know we can be determined and devious. The line the bride sings walking down the aisle, of “Phew, I”ll never have to do THAT again!” Is a little too often true. They want truth and beauty, not to be a victim of some woman with a need for income. They believe in love more than we do at times. +Men hit about 35 and begin to wake up to a silent urging to procreate and nest, they reassess their life in the wild, and begin to consider settling down, they get as broody as any woman does. Or if they have procreated and nested, they begin to feel the urge to stretch their wings and fly, to seek out more, and feel the wonder again. Men aren’t one dimensional, is part of that, they need both, passion and comfort, home and freedom and sensuality, they’re really somewhat simple, they’ll give us everything if they can just be a star in their own lives. That’s really all it takes. That and they want an interesting life. Give them that, and they’ll line up to commit to who ever gives it to them. +You’ll hear wives lament and whine that he’s cheating on her, but what you don’t hear is why he is, and it’s not just some younger body, it’s… she’s interesting and the wife isn’t. The wife has become dull and boring, and to her, all life is about is vacuuming the house now, and she yells at him and whines at him, just like she does after he flies the coop! and he’s tired of sleeping with the maid whose got attitude, who’d want to sleep with a bad tempered tyrant! +Half of that is she berates him, it’s never enough, take out the garbage, fix the car, when are you going to mow the yard, she becomes this chore monger, another boss, so he has two jobs, not a home and a career. And she only lives to do chores, herself, he earns, he works, he takes second place in his own life, he is the gadget man, the vacuum cleaner with a mind, the guy who keeps life orderly for us, and not much else. The kids matter more, and Little League does, hey, girls, if they did that to US, we’d leave, in a second! And do. We’d never put up with working all day and handing over our check only to come home and get yelled at? And she wonders why he left?! Someone was nicer to him is why, and she wasn’t…You can’t keep cows in the barn if you leave the door open, ladies! Get a clue wifey, you weren’t what he needed, you were too busy making cupcakes to notice him, you said no fourteen times a week? And you didn’t keep your buns firm or your underwear sexy. You bored him into leaving and you berated him for not liking you that way. And you follow it up with insulting him after the fact that he’s shallow, and he has the problems! So were the cupcakes for the bake sale really THAT important? Cause you sure act like they are! +Men want fantasy, they want entertainment, they want the princess we are, they want the fairy sprite, the little girl in us who dreams, they want eternal youth from our INSIDES, but they also want the slut lurking within us all, they want excitement and to fly, and then land safely, they want to be our wings, our angels of destiny and if we deny them that part of us, if we refuse to go with them or let them take us on their flights of fancy, they lose, but so do we, all we are is housekeepers then, neither queen or whore, and not their partner in life either, we become grounded as the world moves on without us. We just exist to make dinner, when we could be going on exotic trips and living a life of dreams. We choose to be dull and boring, and then whine they don’t. +Classic sex symbols, from Mae West to Madonna, from Liz Taylor to Brittney Spears, are women men dream of, women of passion and fire, women who are playful and adventurous and have a natural sexuality. Men, dream of a nymphomaniac in their lives, or at least one who can be one at times? They want to be cherished, and adored and worshipped, and they should be! They want to be teased and pleased and played with. They want a playmate, a friend and a confidant. They want a woman who makes them proud, who their friends go WOW, where’d you find THAT one, you must be a stud huh? To keep HER! It’s a man thing, it’s pride, its competitiveness, it’s what makes them happy…its what makes them manly, ladies, if you want him to be more of a man, be more of a woman! +They want a princess to provide for, they want a woman who sparkles at them when they do things for her, and sighs and coos. They want her to be pleased, and surprised by their efforts to win her and appease her. They want to chase her and feel her give in to them. Ladies the guys want romance, not pink lace, real romance, the kind with feeling, the kind that has candlelight and soft music, and sighs, they want the longing glances and the deep involvement. And we sort of end up handing them Chef Boyardee and saying What’s your problem? Well, gosh, dinner from a can, might be some of it, the Dog eats dinner from a can, and we pet the darned dog at least? Or I pet mine, but maybe my dog lives better than your man does too? Consider that. That’s sort of sad isn’t it, for him. +They want her to be glamorous at times, slinky and sexy. They want her to be natural at times, and able to get ready in less than an hour, they want her in baseball caps and jeans, as they sit and fantasize about how hot she was last night, and watch her looking like a tomboy now. They want her to like their bodies, and revel in them, as males, to act like a greedy sexual creature who can’t get enough, at times, as well as listen to their thoughts, and try to make their dreams come true. +They want her to be all the women in the world at once, pure and innocent, devilish and dangerous, squirmy and high spirited, needy and soft, nurturing and comforting, and sexually awake and aware of sensual pleasures. They want the mother in us, the sister, and the slut, they want us to be as multi- dimensional as they are. They want the lady in the living room, the whore in the bedroom, and always have. Be that, and able to carry on a conversation about something other than yourself and your interests, and they will all eat from your hand, with pleasure. +And if we give them that, they really don’t care if we make dinner, or vacuum, they’ll do it, they’ll hire a maid, or they’ll take us out to dinner! Trust me on this, ladies, I don’t do housework! I do keep my passport handy just in case. It takes so long to go back for it, is why, we may miss the flight! I go places, I do things, I get taken out, and away, and I love that I do, they carry my bags, they open doors, and they buy me things to please me! And they call later! I love men, and it shows, and they love me right back! +They don’t want to hear, oooh, yuck, and no way, and you’re kidding, I’m not doing that! They want her to blush and go really? You want me to do that, for real, and try it…they want us to tell them that things feel good, and why, and how to touch us. They want to please us so we do go out of our minds with pleasure. They want to know what we think, but not about the sale at the grocery store, to them it doesn’t matter! It doesn’t! Who cares if lettuce is twenty cents less, like change matters? Now if you could do something sexual with that lettuce they’d want to know about that. They want to be pleased, surprised, seduced, coveted, treated with awe, and worshipped, that’s all! They want to be on a pedestal, just like they put us on one! And for that, they will give us everything they have, can find, can earn and look for more if it pleases us. We become their goddess, but only if we make them our gods… +I’m sexual, very…I like sex, I like a lot of it’s aspects, I enjoy exploring it, and adventuring in it. And there are men, who don’t like it as much as I do, that prefer quieter realms and softer ones, there are compatitble types, there are. But they still crave the sex, the affection and the bonding, and they have to have it ladies, it isn’t about they physically need, it’s how they express themselves to us, if we would only learn to listen! It’s their language, it’s primal, it’s instinctive and it holds them totally in its’ thrall, when we deny them that, they have to go looking, it’s male. They cannot survive without it, and neither can I. +I like a lot of different flavors in life, from the spicy to the sweet, to the hot and ice cold, salt and vinergar to sublimely mild. I like tastes, I like feelings, I like emotional intercourse, which by definition is communication. When we bond together in physical unity we can’t hide from each other, we allow each other inside us, and to me, life without that is pretty boring. +Changing our approach is so easy, it really is. When we join that exercise class at the gym, instead of whining about the effort and expecting to be praised, all we have to do is strip down and show them our behinds daily and say, “What do you think, is it getting smaller, is it getting tighter?” And they love it, and smile, and go hmmm, some, come over here, let me check closer. Then it becomes, for him, we work out, and then they’re more than happy to share it…they’ll check our progress with glee…and insist we take more classes, if they get to be part of it like THAT? +If we make dinner, add candles, dress for him, cook in just an apron for heavens sake? Want him to take out the trash more? Stand there naked. Wear a thong…and say, Like this? Well, as soon as I take out the trash? If I’m still in this mood…the trash is gone, girls, never to be mentioned again…if he forgets? Wear that same outfit…he will learn fast…see thong, take out garbage, get some, it’s like electricity to men. They’ll move so fast and while they’re out there, they’ll put your car away and close the garage door, they do not want more interruptions! As in phew, got her mind on me finally…I got to keep remembering that trash, or yikes she’s gonna find someone who will! Men learn so much quicker than we do. It is just about motivation, use that, there is no You forgot the trash again, oh no, he won’t forget…every day for six years, he’ll remember the naked woman saying I’m gonna take out the trash now…like his own private pin up girl. +And kids? Oh right those anti-romance creatures, uh, feed them early, put them to bed, they’ve had you all day? Daddy’s turn. Get a sitter, trade with a neighbor down the street, you keep mine tonight, I”ll keep yours tomorrow night…just give that man, some of what he needs, he’ll be happy! He had the kids, he loves them, just once in a while, he wants to play with the grownups too. And it doesn’t hurt the kids to be told, Mommy and Daddy are going to play together tonight, it’s our turn. You guys are going to bed early so we can. Give you Dad kiss now, night night. +And if I hear one more woman tell me she’s tired, in this day of electric appliances and television, here’s my answer…you will be more tired if you work all day and come home and then take care of the kids and have no one to help. Take a nap, plan it, don’t wear your self out dusting once in awhile, schedule your man like he matters! Quit whining, once women made the soap, spun the cloth, plowed fields, baked bread, ground flour, knit the socks, and still had the energy to kiss him hello and wrap her arms around him when he walked in, so what is your excuse? The dishwasher door was so heavy to close you’re tired now? He worked all day, he’s tired too! And all he wants is a cuddle and a squeeze and a big smile to see him and to cop a feel, like that’s hard to give him? Uh, give it to him ladies, or know, someone else will. +Men need several things, acceptance of their masculinity, pride in their existence, self esteem, love, affection, sensual pleasures, credit for their contributions, titillation and warm welcome, and to be important in their own lives and for that, they will give you everything they can gather to honor you and please you, they’ll lay anything at your feet, if you just treat them with respect and admiration. +It’s our call girls, it is…and it’s ok with me, if you don’t want to wake up to it! Cause your husband takes me to Mexico while you’re busy at the PTA meeting, and I like going on trips to exotic destinations…and being treated like I’m important and wined and dined and catered to. You can do the PTA if you want? It’s ok with me! +Doubt me?

Anyway, these are some things that I wish that I had known when I started out. The existence of this ""how-to"" should in no way lead anyone to infer that I think that I am a top tier Literotica writer. I don't. What I do believe is that I'm better now than I was when I started._ + **Advice For New Writers** + **Deal With It** +You're going to receive critical comments. Some will be valuable and without malice. Learn from them. Some will be baffling. Use these to remind yourself that the readership of Literotica is both wide and deep. You're going to run into people who aren't the best at expressing themselves. Some will be pure bile. It's inevitable. Go into the experience with that knowledge. +I'm sure that over the years I've posted comments that covered all three of those categories. I've tried to be helpful. I've certainly failed to get my point across. There have been times when I've been a dick. +Develop a thick skin. You're going to need it. + **How Long?** +A Literotica page is roughly 3500 words. If you are trying to figure out how long your story is going to be, that's a good rule of thumb. Dialogue heavy stories will have fewer words per page. +How long should your story be? There is no set length. Some people will swear by a three page optimal and a four-page allowable. On the other hand, many stories in the Hall of Fame exceed that dramatically. +What about posting chapters separately? One page chapters will frustrate readers. Don't do it. Also, you may want to consider having the entirety of your story written before posting any chapters. + **Getting Help** +In my opinion, beta-readers and basic grammar editors are of equal importance. If you happen to luck into an editor who can also offer feedback on characterization, story architecture, and plotting, you've struck gold. +Anyone can be a beta-reader. If you respect their opinions, see if they would be willing. Keep in mind that friends and family will often be overly positive. Critique Corner (Google it) is an excellent resource for finding beta-readers. You may want to ask people who Favorited your first story to beta-read your next. They also have a forum for beta-readers on GoodReads. The people that reach out to you through the Literotica email system and insightful commenters may be your best resource. +Finding an editor is difficult. Finding an excellent editor is exponentially more difficult. I can't self-edit. I'm atrocious and abysmally lacking in the editing skillset. Because of that, I'm tremendously grateful to the people that have been kind enough to edit my writing. +Use the editor's forum on the Literotica Bulletin Board. It's not going to be easy to get someone to respond to you. Be persistent. Ask for recommendations from writers on Lit that you admire. If worse comes to worst, you can pay someone to edit your work. Fiverr has reasonable rates. +If you do decide to go the self-edit route, consider using a free automated service like Grammarly (Google it) or the Spelling and Grammar function of Word. They are both far from perfect, but it might help as a last resort. + **Pulling in Readers** +There are a few things to consider here. The first is the genre you are writing in and where you are placing your story. I'm not kink-shaming, but if you are writing cuck or humiliation stories, put them in Fetish, not Loving Wives. The readership in one will be welcoming, the readership in the other will be hostile. [Editor's Note: stories of swinging and partner sharing DO belong in Loving Wives, as that is the purpose of the category per the category description.] +Establish a conflict and dialogue as early as possible. Conflict hooks the reader and dialogue helps with immediacy. Don't time hop. No one is interested in going from a guy cheating on his wife in paragraph A to the subsequent ten paragraphs being about his childhood, teenage years, college, first years on the job, and his wedding day. +If it's not necessary for the plot, excise it. +Answer emails. Update your bio information. Both actions will help you develop a dedicated readership. + **Getting Better** +To reiterate what I said earlier, learn from your critiques. Even if they are couched in negativity, some comments offer sound advice. +Try to learn from the authors you admire. What do they do that you enjoy? +Work on dialogue. It should 'sound' the same as a conversation you might overhear at Starbucks. Read it aloud to yourself. + **Formatting** +If you are using multiple Point of View characters, find a way to display when perspectives shift. Five asterisks might do the trick (*****). Putting the name of the new POV character in bold at the start of that section might work. Find your own style, just make sure that the reader knows who is telling the story at all times. +This section is going to be tricky. I literally can't use a symbol that I'm referring to as it is reserved in Lit's system for HTML. So, when I try to discuss HTML tagging, I can't use the actual symbol that is needed. I'll describe it instead. +You remember when you were a kid and the teacher told you about the greater than and lesser than symbol? How the hungry alligator always at the most and all of that stuff? Well, the symbol looks like a V turned on its side to the right. On a PC keyboard, it's often above the comma. We're going to call that (Greater Than). If it's turned to its left, we'll call that (Lesser Than). When I use either reference, just imagine the actual symbol. +Literotica allows HTML tagging. That means that you can use _italics_ , **boldface** or other effects. You have to start and end the text that you want to be modified with an HTML tag. The starting is easy. You use this Greater Than and then inside you put I for italics or B for bold or CENTER if you want the text centered and then you follow that with Lesser Than. At the end of the area of text you want to modify, you do almost the exact same thing, but you put a backslash before the letter. For example: /i or /b or /center. +Lame example: (Greater Than)b(Lesser Than)Here is the text I want to be in bold.(Greater Than)/b(Lesser Than) +There should be no spaces. It should be (Greater Than) followed directly by the letter, followed directly by the (Lesser Than). I can't demonstrate that for you as the Lit system will think I'm trying to modify the text and you will see the effect, not my example, but that's how I italicized and bolded the words in this article. +I'll try to give a better example in the comments as I don't believe there's an issue with HTML there. +If there's any confusion, shoot me an email. + **What to Use** +Use whatever writing program you're most comfortable with. I prefer Word and Google Docs. There are programs specifically designed for writing fiction (google Scrivener). If you have the money to invest, go for it. Google Docs is free and it also allows for easy collaboration with editors and beta-readers. + **Best Resource** +Other writers. Ask questions. When I started out, I asked a ton of questions and not one author was rude or dismissive. Use the Literotica email system and if you have a question, reach out. +Keep in mind that some authors aren't active, others choose not to answer emails and some may be extremely busy. In general, though, the people who have successfully done what you want to do are the best people to ask questions of. + **Why Are You Writing?** +Know what your goal is going in and try to balance your goals and your expectations. If you have a compulsion to write and just want to get your work out there, cool. There's no need for further reflection. If you want to use Literotica to get better as a writer, try to challenge yourself. Write something out of your comfort zone. Like writing action-packedaction packed Westerns? Write a romance. Are your POV characters well-educatedwell educated women? Write a story where the POV character is a down on his luck ex-boxer. Do you tend to be loquacious? Write a 750 word story. +Most importantly, enjoy the process. None of this is mandatory. If writing and posting is causing you angst, modify your expectations or stop posting on Lit. Life is too short to put yourself through needless hassle. +Here are some thoughts by one of my favorite authors, MsCherylTerra. ""The advice I'd add if it were me, and it's not so don't feel obligated to add this, would be ""know why you're writing."" Are you writing for yourself? Are you writing for enjoyment? Are you writing to be the very best like no one ever was? Figure out why you're doing it so you can remind yourself of it when you hit a block, get a critical comment, or something you write doesn't take off the way you think it should."" +Readers have expectations and those expectations are often reasonable. It's fairly easy to figure out what those expectations are. Look at what scores well and what doesn't. Try to match category and story. If you choose not to, expect pushback and negative results. The time and attention of a reader is a resource. Don't squander it. +Good luck! As a reader, I sincerely hope that you find success. It's always great to find a new talented writer. As an author, please reach out if I can offer any help. +***** + _With thanks to the friends that were kind enough to offer feedback and editing._" +898,What is Haiku?,jthserra,How To,2020-12-26,2020-12-26,2022-01-04 08:41:53,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/what-is-haiku-1,A brief discussion about haiku.,"['Haiku', 'Poet', 'Poetry', 'Writing Guide', 'Writing Poetry']",4.33,"What is Haiku? +That is an excellent question. Haiku is a highly misunderstood art form. Misinformation abounds, so much that it is hard to decipher just exactly what a haiku is. My dictionary, Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary, defines haiku as an unrhymed Japanese verse form of three lines containing 5,7,5 syllables respectively; also: a poem in this form. Okay, with this information I am going to give you instructions on how to get a better understanding of haiku: +Step 1.) Get out your own personal English Language dictionary and open it to the page on haiku. +Step 2.) Firmly grasp the edge of the page and look at it. +Step 3.) Before you can read the definition of haiku in your dictionary tear out the page. +Step 4.) At this point, you might want to read over the other definitions on the page you just tore out and jot down any you think might be worth keeping. +Step 5.) Burn that page and flush the ashes down the toilet. +Step 6.) Completely forget the definition I gave you in the second paragraph above. Yes, completely. +Assuming you haven't set off any smoke alarms, or set your house on fire, hopefully you are ready to learn a bit about haiku. Now that we have befouled the dictionary, we need a new definition for haiku. I offer what I think is the best definition I have seen: +""A haiku is a short poem recording the essence of a moment keenly perceived in which Nature is linked to human nature."" +Cor van den Heuvel, The Haiku Anthology W.W. Norton & Company, New York, London +Okay... for the time being, forget about syllables, lines, and Japanese Geishas, well not the geishas. I will discuss form in subsequent articles. In my opinion, the form of haiku is secondary to the concepts outlined in the above definition. My opinion is supported by a number of highly recognized haiku experts; however this viewpoint is also opposed by a number of highly recognized experts. +When reading or writing haiku, I think you need to consider several key words in the quote above. Like haiku, a lot is said in those few words. The key words I would like you to consider are: +recording moment perceived Nature +Think about these words in the context of the quote. I would like to discuss each one. +Recording -- Basically, in haiku you should observe and record an event or image, nothing more, nothing less. Well, yes there is something more... you should observe, recognize a unique aspect of what you observe and record. What this means is that when you write of the image or event you should not embellish or interpret. In your haiku, you should present what you saw, allowing the reader to interpret your words. +summer day the sun shines like an orange lollypop +Unfortunately, in this haiku, I have done the interpreting. I tell the reader what to think: that the sun shines like an orange lollypop. +summer day sunlight on my orange lollypop +While it still needs some work, in this second haiku, I don't tell the reader what to think, I merely present the image to him/her. Now the fact that the lollypop is orange may help project the image, but I am not forcing this upon the reader. +As a poet who also writes haiku, this was one of the most difficult things to adapt to. I had to suppress my desire to paint a grandiose picture with flowing metaphor, insightful similes, and other poetic devices. I basically had to swallow some ego and merely present the image or event. It is tough to do, but ah... when you do it well, you realize you never needed those devices to begin with. The simple and plain language allows the reader to experience the event or image and explore it in their own mind. +The old pond -- a frog jumps in, the sound of water +Basho +There you go. This poem merely describes some frog jumping into the pond and you hear the splash. There is no metaphor, no simile, the frog jumps in the water. But if you read it, you are freed to see the pond... not just any pond, an old pond. Perhaps there are some old trees around, with mist rising off the water. You walk past and see movement and hear a splash. A frog, yes a frog has leaped into this old pond. Now you see the ripples, perhaps see the frog swim off. Are there more frogs? If not, why was this one alone and why here? The few words can spin you off as far as you want to go. +That haiku, by Matsuo Basho is probably the most famous and widely quoted haiku ever written. Basho lived from 1644 to 1694. He is basically considered the father of haiku. While some had been written before him, he ""...gave them a power and seriousness they had rarely had before.""* +The crane's legs have gotten shorter in the spring rain. +Ponder the possibilities in this poem also by Basho. Again, he has just reported the event, but in reading these few words, you are transported there. +Moment -- The haiku is by definition a short poem. As I mention above, your job as haikuist is to record an image or event. Another word for image or event is moment. The haiku artist searches out the haiku moment, which is merely something he/she sees that is interesting, surprising or beautiful. But it is not the evening sunset where the sky fades from bright red, to a shadowy magenta. The haiku moment is the instant a bird makes a silhouette against the sky, or the instant a specific ray of sunlight touches a cloud and it explodes in color, or the moment the sun disappears. +In Basho's poem about the crane above, the moment is when he notices that the water around the crane has gotten deeper (making its legs appear shorter). Again, it is not the 20 minutes of downpour that made the water rise, but just the moment he connects the rising water to the image of the crane. It is your job as haiku artist to capture this moment. +Perceived -- The means you use to find the proper haiku moment to write about is your perception. You have the wonderful capability and the overbearing responsibility to filter out the ordinary in your life to find the few moments that are really special. You perceive the beauty of a dragonfly hovering above a pond, then momentarily touching the surface of the water, sending out ripples. You perceive the image as something special and you record it. +on the pond the ripples have wings dragonfly +You perceived the essence of the moment and wrote the haiku. Well actually I did all that, but you can do it too. It is not difficult once you know the general goals in haiku. +I also cheated a bit; I slipped in another important word from the definition, essence. The true beauty of haiku is how it can touch upon the beauty of a moment in such a minimal way. You take your record of the moment and take away all but the bare essence of this moment. The haiku above creates the same image as my long sentence in the paragraph above it, yet the haiku presents you the essence of the moment allowing you to see the rest. It is truly wonderful viewing nature through haiku. +Nature -- You will notice the fourth keyword is capitalized in the description. We are talking about nature around us... Mother Nature, if you will. Historically, haiku has been written about Nature or man's interaction with Nature. Although this is changing some in modern times, the vast majority of haiku features nature. One distinguishing factor in comparing haiku to a similar form of Japanese Poetry, the senryu is that haiku deals with Nature with a capital N, while the senryu typically deals with the foibles of human nature. +Now that we have at least some basic feel for what haiku is, and what we as haiku artists are supposed to do, we can look at a few of the other things we need to think about with haiku. Look for future articles regarding the form and function of haiku. In the meantime, I leave you with one of my favorite haiku.

Reading some recently posted poems and the comments to those poems and considering several past discussions I have had on the subject, I found there is a good deal of confusion about the differences between haiku and senryu. My earlier article titled _What is Haiku_ discussed haiku in some detail. In this article, I will provide some explanation of senryu. +Much like I did for my haiku article, I pulled out my ""Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary"" and looked up the definition of senryu, but I found nothing there. Unlike haiku, where Mr. Webster misled us with a poor definition, he is silent on senryu. That's a good sign, at least I won't have to fight Mr. Webster on this one and you won't have to set any small fires in your house as you burn the pages with the misleading definitions. +_from my book not another page a small fire_ +I remember an email conversation from some time ago when someone asked me: ""What is the ""exact"" difference between haiku and senryu? I had to think a while on this, because while I had read and written both haiku and senryu, I had not spent much time considering the precise difference between the two. My most succinct answer to the question took two emails and quotes from three highly qualified sources. The quotes offered three very different definitions. +In 1970, the Haiku Society of America's Definitions Committee quoted in The Haiku Handbook by William J. Higgenson, defined senryu as: _""Loosely, a poem similar to haiku which does not meet the criteria for haiku.""_ Ouch! Higgenson, who chose to include the above definition in his book, went on to say: _""Although I was a member of that committee, I do not like suggesting that a senryu is a failed haiku.""_ Higgenson realized that, while some senryu result from failed haiku, often the poet will set out to write a senryu. He explains: _""...a senryu relies on a point of wit instead of provocation by contrast, as does the haiku.""_ +_While the guests order the table cloth hides his hands -- counting his money_ (Clement Hoyt - from ""The Haiku Handbook"") +In his book, Higgenson offered a description for senryu that was very different from the Haiku Society of America's: _""A humorous or satiric poem dealing with human affairs, usually written in the same form as haiku.""_ While this definition more closely matches my understanding of senryu, I think Cor Van den Heuvel in his The haiku Anthology provided the best definition of senryu. He described the difference between haiku and senryu as: _""Senryu is the same as haiku except, instead of dealing with Nature, it is specifically about human nature and human relationships and is often humorous.""_ +_Library closing -- the sleeping wino wakes up holding a shut book_ (Sydell Rosenberg - from ""The Haiku Handbook"") +As I mentioned above, I lean more to van den Heuvel's definition, basically calling a poem about or involving human nature a senryu, while calling a poem about or involving nature a haiku. With respect to the senryu's structure, I basically follow the same precepts as I do in haiku. You may want to refer to my article titled: _More on Haiku: Not Seventeen_. +I have seen people question whether haiku was too short a form to express eroticism. While a short form will limit the extent of the image you can present, I think that if you concentrate upon a specific erotic moment, it can be compressed into something less than 17 syllables. Once it has been compressed, the real question will become: ""Is it haiku or senryu?"" The nice thing about senryu is that you can emphasize some wonderful aspects of human nature: +_naked her gown on the floor_ +While some may argue that this poem is not hot enough, or explicit enough to be considered erotica, I find the image very erotic. The poem, based upon van den Heuvel's definition, should be considered a senryu, in my opinion an _erotic_ senryu. There are some examples of erotic haiku, where nature is portrayed in an erotic fashion: + _beyond the dark where I disrobe an iris in bloom_ (Katsura Nobuko -- from Far Beyond the Field) +Let's keep reading and writing haiku and senryu. +- + **Bibliography** +1\.

Unfortunately, in this mass of poetry, there resides an enormous amount of misconception regarding haiku and other similar Japanese forms: _""Among both poets and the general public, there is a broad mass of people whose only understanding of haiku is that it has seventeen syllables and that anything that is put in the seventeen syllable, three-line form they remember from elementary school is automatically haiku.""_ (1) +For the longest time, I was one of those poets, ignorantly writing what I called haiku. Because I was able to seemingly say a lot in just a few syllables, I soon gained the title of ""that haiku expert"" from friends and acquaintances. That was a title I humbly embraced as I wrote short little pseudo-haiku, hundreds of them. It was not until I began to submit my work to some of the respected haiku publications and websites that I shockingly discovered that my haiku, were not very good. In fact, some intimated that what I submitted perhaps were not haiku at all. At that point I realized there was a lot more to haiku. +For the next several years, as I studied, wrote and discussed haiku, I began developing a number of articles about the art. The articles began as lengthy emails, which I later compiled and more recently developed into some of the articles I have posted here at Literotica. For a better understanding of Zappai, we will need to consider the questions I asked in two of my articles: 1.) What is Haiku? and 2.) What is Senryu? In both those articles I outlined a, hopefully, simple and basic set of tenants to define English language haiku and senryu. These tenants help identify a number of short, usually three line poems as either haiku or senryu. The tenants also identify a much larger number of short, usually three line poems that don't seem to fit those definitions. What do we call these, now, unidentified poems? Some might still argue they are haiku, others would brand them pseudo-haiku, and others may simply ignore them. +Rather than ignore the poems, or simply brand them as failed haiku, perhaps we should consider finding an appropriate identification for them. A possible solution has been offered by Lee Gurga, now editor of Modern Haiku, one of the premier English language haiku publications in circulation. He indicates that: _""In Japanese poetry, zappai includes all types of seventeen syllable poems that do not have the proper formal or technical characteristics of haiku...""_. (1) +Gurga explains: _"" If we look at all of what is presented today as ""haiku,"" a large number of so-called haiku are, like zappai, imaginative or imaginary, wit-based poems that are written or shared for the entertainment of the reader and writer. Unlike haiku, these poems often have no relation to nature. Unlike senryu, these poems make no attempt to distinguish between the imaginative and the imaginary. This includes things like spam haiku, sci-fi haiku and their ilk.""_ (1) +Much like senryu, where William J. Higgensen cautioned _""...I do not like suggesting that a senryu is a failed haiku...""_ (2 -- pg.232) because often poets started out trying to write senryu, some poets set out to write zappai. To characterize all zappai as failed haiku or senryu would be unfair to those poets. Japanese zappai is part of their poetry aesthetic. Gurga does add: _""While zappai were recognized as a form of poetic entertainment, they were not recognized as being as high an art as either haiku or senryu.""_ (1) +Understanding that all short, three line poems using 17 (or less -- see my article titled ""Not Seventeen: More on Haiku"") syllables are not haiku, or even senryu; we can now identify the poems that do not meet haiku's or senryu's basic tenants. To follow the Japanese form, we can call these English language zappai. +In considering many of the short poetry submitted here at Literotica, from the small samplings I have taken as a poetry reviewer on the poetry discussion board, the majority of the haiku that I have seen, based upon the definition above and in my other articles, would be classified as zappai. The remainder of the submitted haiku, would then either fall into the haiku or senryu category. As examples of each I offer the following: +haiku: _**Bass**_ +picking bugs +off the moon +Nicholas A. Virgilio (2) +senryu: **_While the guests order,_** +the table cloth hides his hands -- +counting his money. +Clement Hoyt (2) +zappai: **_Cook it in the can_** +SPAM, block of cheese, brown sugar +I can't get it out +\--Phil and Amy Timberlake (3) +Bibliography: +1.)Gurga, Lee ""Toward an Aesthetic for English Language Haiku Modern Haiku Vol. XXXI, No. 3 (Fall, 2000). +2.)Higginson, William J., The Haiku Handbook Kodansha International Ltd., Tokyo, Japan 1985. +3.)""The Spam-ku Archive"" at Spamhaiku.com." +901,What It's All About,J.J.,How To,2000-12-11,2000-12-11,2022-01-04 08:41:56,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/what-its-all-about,He talks about sex and gives examples.,"['Bit Horny', 'Bob Back', 'Dan Good', 'Dance Love', 'Gena', 'Kiss Fondle', 'Lovers Dance', 'Phyl', 'Sexual Act', 'Show Signs']",4.19,"Every man, woman, child and anyone else over the of eight has heard the word ""sex"" and wondered about it. Children hear it described as something awesome and wonderful from their parents, the media, their friends, and a host of other places. Advertisements on billboards show virile men and exotic women hawking a product or idea. So, ""What is it really?"" +In it's highest and simplest form it might be described as follows. ""A harmonious coupling of a healthy man and a healthy woman in spirit, mind, and body."" It has been described by some as as the ultimate human endeavour. In it's highest form, it should provide pleasure more intense than than any other human sensation, equally to the man and to the woman. +As adults, with at least some experience in the matter of sex, one must wonder why we aren't all going around with a smile on our face - all the time. The answer is simple. We have simply not experienced sex in it's ultimate form; rather, in a lesser form, without appropriate portions of emotion [spirit], intellect [mind], and physical [biological] input into the activity. The fact is we are, none of us, perfect lovers. . .we have our hangups, we're not socially unblemished. We are not perfetly attuned to our lover. That does not mean that we who have risen to a 9.9 on a scale of 10 can not improve. . . . +The sexual act without emotion, is devoid of any feelings other than sensation and can only be classed as recreational sex. Of course, if one is willing to settle for 2/3ds of the equation it can still be fun - but can never be enjoyed to it's ultimate extent. +The sex act without intellectual stimulation leaves only the coupling of the body, i.e., sexual congress and is more simply called prostitution. It can never be more than a higher form of external masturbation. Of course, some are willing to settle for the sensation that it provides. It should be noted that a professional prostitute knows that they must try to induce some intellectual stimuli into their act if they are to be successful. +So; then, we have a man and a woman, who are bonded socially, either by marriage or other commitment, who might wonder, ""Is this all there is?"" Most of us probably have. Men!, ""Remember when you rushed your partner into premature coitus with a severe case of 'hot pants'?"" In so doing you deprived your partner of the their ultimate pleasure. In so doing, you also deprived yourself. ""Remember when you. . . . .?"" +Women! ""Remember when you wanted to punish your man by not participating fully in the sexual act that you entered into willingly?"" You deprived yourself; thence, your partner. ""Remember when you ...?"" +So, there we have addressed the harmonious aspect of the relationship in the act. Neither the man or the woman can do much about their health but, let's face it, sexual intercourse and the events leading up to it involves strenuous physical activity coupled with a keen mind and unfettered spirit. In addition, obesity, poor hygiene, and feelings encumbered by mental aberrations will probably be distasteful to a partner. +Now, ""How do we we prepare for our sexual liaison?"" Well, the obvious first thing is to make our body as presentable as possible, good hygiene and grooming as well as bathing are a must. Then, we must prepare our minds... think about all the matters relative to the act before you commit to it! If their are unresolved intellectual matters, resolve them before committing further. Preparing the spirit is much harder. . . .Are we really in contact with our spiritual side? Do your emotions, [including but not limited to lust] impel you towards further commitment? Once one has started down the path towards sexual intercourse the intellectual and spiritual matters will be distorted by lust. Latent and unresolved intellectual and spiritual values will manifest itself as guilt and detract from the ultimate enjoyment. +Part II - ---------------------------------------------------------- +So, ""How does it all work?"" Let's take Jack and Jill, two hypothetical people, married, couple of kids, financial worries and encumbered with busy, full lives. They are healthy and deeply committed to each other. It's Friday and Jill has had an easy day with the children at school and the household chores completed earlier in the week. +By mid afternoon, she begins to think about Jack and fanticise about his body. She begins to feel a bit cosy and her groin and nipples are a bit sensitive. . . .an all together pleasant feeling. She considers masturbation briefly but rejects the idea, preferring to save herself for the evening with her husband. +Then, she plans, simple meal on time, kids prepared for bed early, and the master bedroom decorated with flowers and a nice scent. She showers, prepares herself for the evening she anticipates and dresses in her sexiest dress. Her lust is now more evident and she revels in anticipation. In quiet moments she succumbs to the lusty feelings. +At 6:30 p.m. Jack arrives home, a half hour late, dinner has been on hold for half an hour and Jack has had an emotionally draining day. The kids, who have been waiting for dinner have become unruly and Jill's evening is starting poorly. She serves the dinner and minds the kids as +Jack eats in silence. After dinner, Jill does the dishes and cleans the kitchen; then, gets the kids tucked in. Jack has gone to be, sunbathed, and exhausted. By 9:00 p.m. Jill undresses, dons a heavy night gown, and goes to bed beside her husband who is sleeping soundly. +In bed, Jill smells the stale body odor of her husband as she lies, frustrated, in bed. In an hour or so sleep comes. . . . +At 5:30 a.m. Jack arises at his usual hour and jogs his usual two miles before returning to shower and shave. At 7:20 he puts the kids on the school bus and returns to check on Jill who sleeps peacefully in their bed. After making coffee and breakfast of scones and Irish Creme Jack removes his clothing and returns to bed where he cuddles up to spoon with his wife. As he lies next to Jill's warm figure he clears his mind of his business problems and lusts after his wife. The lust comes easy for him as he smells the sweet scent of her body powders and shampoo. +Half an hour later, Jill stirs and wakes to find it well past her usual time for arising. ""The Kids!"" she says. ""All taken care of,"" he says. ""Breakfast in bed,"" she notes and suddenly relaxes into the arms of her lover. +As the two lovers lay in their bed they do not immediately institute the sex act; rather, they begin to align themselves to each other. He looks into her eyes and she returns the look. They talk about controversial matters of the day and discount them, one by one. Now, attuned in mind and spirit, Jill goes to her morning shower and returns a few minutes later, totally nude. Jack admires her body with his lustful gaze. She turns and does a pirouette to show her nicely shaped features. +In bed their bodies meet, him on his right side, her on her left, her breasts and thighs pressed against his. They kiss. The foreplay continues with greater urgency as they seek to attune themselves to each other. The caresses, the fondling, the sucking, the feeling all directed towards a perfect alignment of their bodies, minds and souls for the action they are about to undertake. Each new caress provides the partner with a new latent pleasure. Each suckle, or laving adds to their partners store of latent pleasure. After a particularly ardent kissing, licking and fingering of Jill's pussy Jack feels her breathing deepen and her body tensing. . . .it is time. +As Jack raises himself over Jill on the bed he moves upwards, between her thighs and positions himself for the uniting of his cock and her pussy. A single, slow shove and Jacks tool slides home to the hilt. Her well lubricated channel accepts his tool with a loving tenderness and the lovers become one. They dance the ancient dance of coitus and revel in the pleasure it brings. Soon, as if by some hidden signal, they roll and Jill is on top, her vagina still full of Jacks penis and the action continues. Now it is Jill who leads in the dance of love...Jack responds with vigour. +Another move and Jill is seated in Jacks lap, facing him and their sex still joined. . . .they fondle and caress and take their time. The pleasure builds. Then, after a few minutes pause, Jack is pistoning into his lover from the missionary position and Jill's feet are drumming a beat on his back. The action intensifies as the lovers move towards a culmination. +When Jill begins to tense for an orgasm he prepares himself and drives into her harder. . . . As the spasms of Jill's orgasm flood through her body, Jack must also climax. . .a hundred locomotives could not hold back the raging flood of semen into Jill's belly. They cling to each other as each new spasm races through their bodies . . . .and then it's over. +Slowly the lovers return to the world around them. They kiss and fondle and assure each other of their love. Jack would have to hurry if he was to be back at his office by 1:00 p.m. +That afternoon, Jill sat making her shopping list and waiting for the kids to arrive home from school. As she sat she felt the tenderness on her pubes from the morning's event and smiled. . . .Her breasts were also sensitized. . . .the feelings of the morning lingered. ""fresh fucked female"", she thought. . . . .and revelled in it! +That might have been a solid nine on a one to ten scale. +\------------------------------####---------------------------- +Dick and Jane did not fair so well. Both had been through bitter divorces and had been emotionally drained and crippled by their failures. Their confidence had been shattered and their self-esteem was non-existent. Both were successful in their sales careers and they held similar positions with competing companies. +Perhaps it was ironic that they should meet as adversaries as they attempted to sell their product. Using all the sales techniques at their disposal against each other, it was probably doubly ironic that they became friends of a sort. Being emotionally unable to support one another, they based their relationship on a need for what the other had to offer. They shared an apartment. They shared a bed. They respected each other. They took their meals together. They helped each other to the limit of their ability. Bonding was minimal. +At 7:25 p.m., Dick came home to find Jane asleep in a chair. She looked exhausted. Dinner was still not a consideration. ""Damn!"" he thought. It was supposed to be her turn tonight. Then, after re-consideration, he finds that he's a bit horny so he changes his tact. ""Hey Babe? Let's order in Chinese tonight,"" he says. She does not respond to his question and he orders anyway for a nine o'clock delivery. +At 9:00 p.m. the food arrives and they are awakened from their sleep to rise from their chairs and go to the door where they pay for the food and trudge to the table to eat their meal. As they eat they become more awake. . . .Jane finds herself feeling a bit horny and the couple make overtures towards each other. . . .a look, a lascivious smile, a suggestion! Each works at enticing he other. +Twenty minutes later they undress and climb in bed. They move together and touch each other as they kiss and fondle. They are both experienced and know what turns on their partner and they both proceed through the motions. As Dick puts his lips to Jane's breast he tastes the slight taste of stale sweat. He continues his ministrations and moves down Jane's belly until he gets the distinct odour of poor feminine hygiene. Here he stops and retreats back to concentrate on the breasts. Jane, on the other hand, gets better perceptions of Dick. . . .she quickly responds and here lust builds steadily. Then, she senses that Dick has hesitated and seems untuned to their act. +They slowly come together as their minds resolve the immediate problems with their encounter. When Dick's tool enters Jane's lubricated pussy they are as prepared as they probably can be. Both are incapable of deep emotion and both are more interested in themselves than in their partner. After the point of insertion, the act becomes more familiar. The experienced lovers dance the ancient ritual of love with skill and they take certain pleasure from each other. +The culmination is slow in coming; yet, most enjoyable. Jane exaggerates her reaction to the feelings to impress Dick. Dick stays for the afterglow to please Jane. Then, it's over. +Let's give it a 6.5 on the 1 to 10 scale. +\---------------------------- ####--------------------------------- +Gena was the Chief Operating officer of a large corporation before she was thirty five. She had earned the position with hard work and diligence and the company she took over had moved from near bankruptcy to a financial success. She had been interviewed by several national magazines and was at the top of her career field. +Privately her social life, or lack of it, was in a shambles. She had no close friends, having lost contact with those she'd made as kids long ago. Her sexual encounters had been limited to a couple of high school trysts in the back seat of a family sedan and a fellow in college who had sweet-talked her into it a few times before they parted. Now, she had only masturbation which provided little relief for her sexual tensions. +At one of the more intense times of need, when masturbation simply didn't help, Gena decided it was time for some professional help. She searched the yellow pages and found a listing for, ""Discreet Escort Services, men and women for your pleasure."" She checked her schedule and found that the following Tuesday night was clear. Wednesday morning had only a minimal work schedule. She picked up the telephone and dialled the number. . . . +At 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, a tall, dark, formally dressed, handsome man appeared at Gena's door. ""He'll do nicely,"" she thought as she opened the door. +Dinner was scheduled for 6:45 at 'Amadaeus', the chic place to go in the city. Gena would be seen there, in the company of a handsome man and the fact duly reported in social circles. Should someone recognize the man she was with, it was unlikely they'd talk much about it. Dinner was pleasant and the conversation was easy. +Dan provided a service, the best service in the city, for the highest price in the city. Dan was good at what he did. . . He was a professional too! Tonight he was especially pleased to note that the woman he was with was to be with was beautiful! His business acumen told him that he would. +Gena, on the other hand, was nervous. She felt tense and somewhat frightened by what she was doing. Then it happened. . . .! Tess, from her marketing department, came by their table and it was evident that she knew Dan rather well. ""Damn, she knows!,"" she thought. Later, as they danced, Dan seemed to know a good many of the people around them even though he pretended to have eyes only for her. ""Let's get out of here,"" she said. +As they drove about the city, Gena began to relax. Dan tried to mend the damage that had been done by their chance meeting with Tess. Tess wouldn't talk. He was sure of that. Dan knew Tess well and he had services a number of clients at Tess's request. Right now though, it was his responsibility to save the evening and his reputation. They talked on an intellectual level about a mirad of things. Gradually, Gena was prepared for the evening ahead. As they departed the care Gena was relaxed and even enjoying the evening. . . .until they passed the doorman at her apartment. ""He'll know I'm having a man in my room,"" she thought and she was tense again. +In her apartment, Dan was solicitous but it was to little avail. He had experienced failure before but it was usually with women who had emotional hangups or mental problems and Gena didn't show any signs of either. He tried to be pleasant and played to her ego. +Had Gena been of lesser intellect she might have been won but she quickly saw through Dan's ploys. ""What the hell,"" she thought, ""I hired him to fuck me and that's what he's here for."" ""Let's fuck,"" she said. +Dan was again on safe ground. He was an expert at fucking. . . . and that's what she wants! He slowly undressed the woman beside him as she lay on the bed. She could have been dead as far as he could tell. He undressed himself before her and she showed no interest. Kissing her was like putting his lips to a cold fish. Perhaps. . . . .As he climbed between her thighs and applied his lips to her labes did he get a reaction. . . . only a slight one but it encouraged Dan to continue his ministrations. He had eaten and fingered many pussies before but this one got his best effort as he continued to encourage the woman beneath him. Then, he felt hands on his head directing him upwards. ""I want it now,"" she said. +As Dan donned his condom and climbed over his clients body he hoped that he could still save his reputation. After all he was surely one of the best cocksmen in the city. As he entered her Gena resisted due to poor lubrication and felt the pain as they became accustomed to each other. The action was slow to start; then, then brisk. +Gena lay as if she were dead, under her lover's body. Then, somewhere deep in her bowels she felt a spark of lust. It was just an instant but Gena recognized it at once. She waited until she felt the spark again and then again. The man on top of her was beginning to inspire her lusty nature. She let herself go as she began to respond to Dan's ministrations. It felt good! Then it felt real good!! +Then, it was over. Dan had withheld his ejaculation as long as he could before spilling his wad into the condom. +Frustrated with the whole affair, Gena ordered, ""Get out!"" ""Just take your clothed and go. This was a mistake."" After Dan was gone, history, a ""to-be- forgotten"" event. Gena wept. . . . . +Let's rate this at about 1.2 on a scale of 1 to 10. +\----------------------------####---------------------------------- +Bob is working on a project 5,000 miles from home. He works 65 hours a week at a demanding job and has little time for a life. He is there, a hemisphere from home, to forget a woman in whom he had invested his very soul only to find that she didn't feel the same way. He is lonely. . . .so lonely that it's affecting his sleep, his mind and his forgetting the woman he came to forget. +Phyllis is a woman who was born into poverty, had worked hard to improve her lot, failed and lost hope. When the project came to her village, she saw men with money, men with power, men who would never know poverty! It was then that she decided to sell herself. +Some months later, Bob went to the local bar. He had reasoned that a whore could appease his loneliness and his sexual appetites at the same time. Besides, he had heard that the women in the bar were beautiful. As he entered the establishment he saw that the rumours he had heard were true - the women were indeed beautiful! +He approached the bar, ordered beer and addressed Phyllis, ""Hi! I'm bob,"" he said. ""You may call me Phyl,"" she said and the bargaining began. They had soon agreed on a price, a place and what was expected of the encounter. +As they left he bar Bob began to feel the long forgotten sensation of lust. It felt good. He felt the beginnings of an erection and enjoyed the pleasure it evoked. As they walked, Phyl tried to engage Bob in conversation that would result in some bonding. ""After all,"" she reasoned, ""If she could please this man he might return often."" They talked of personal things and things that would draw out Bob's feelings. She tried to develop the conversation along intellectual lines as well. Bob, was certainly ready for any form bonding, especially female bonding. He was soon captivated by the woman who he had hired to please him. . . +At Bob's room, they entered in silence as Phyl waited for Bob to set the mood. When he didn't act immediately she took control and set Bob in a chair at the table. She moved slowly and sensuously to a seat across from him. They continued to talk as Bob's appetites became more urgent. +When Phyl moved from her chair and went to the bathroom, Bob arose and stood wondering what was about to transpire. Soon Phyl returned with her former clothing gone and dressed in a black teddy. Bob was ""fucking hot"" in an instant. Phyl came forward into his waiting arms and pressed her body against him waiting for hm to yield. When she had his shirt buttons open she lifted his shirt and undershirt over his head and dropped his trousers with a single downward movement. As Bob yielded he lifted the teddy over Phyl's head and they stood bared before each other. +Phyl quickly went to the bathroom and returned with a warm, wet towel with which she washed his genital area; then, gently pushed Bob back on to the bed. Slowly, for effect, she climbed between his legs and placed her mouth over the erect cock before her. She did to his tool what he had never even imagined before. She deep-throated him, she massaged his massive tool with her lips. she sucked his balls. Two minutes later Bob spilled his first load of semen . . .it was sensational! +But the evening was far from over. The couple bathed together and played as they washed each other's genitalia. For the first time in months Bob felt that a great burden had been lifted and he forgot the woman back home. As Phyl played with Bob's flaccid tool in the warm bath water, it soon began to show signs of stiffening; then, it was again ready for action. +Immediately, they left the bath, dried and Phyl gently directed Bob back to the bed, whence he came. She lingered in the bathroom only long enough to apply lubrication to her vagina and to take a condom from her store before joining Bob on the bed. There she tore open the covering on the condom and placed it on Bob's hard manmeat. They talked some giddy nonsense as Phyl climbed over Bob's torso and positioned herself over his erect cock. +The insertion was slow as they adjusted to the connection; then, a steady mechanical rhythm as Phyl worked to please Bob. As the rhythm of the dance of love continued, a bond formed between the lovers and there was pleasure. Bob's ejaculation was slower in coming this time and it brought a pleasant sensation as he exploded his second load of the evening into the condom. +Phyl knew that good sex included the afterglow and she stayed with her man as he slowly withdrew from his high point. Her job was manifold; she must support and encourage his ego; she must satisfy his sexual appetite; she must sell herself! She is doing it well. Phyl is, indeed, a good whore. +The rest of the night included another sexual encounter and hours of subtle flattery, intimacy, and bonding. +As good sex goes, Phyl had bought the best she could from Bob. We'd give that one about a 4.2 on the 1 to 10 scale." +902,What Men Want Ch. 03,almost,How To,2003-04-23,2003-04-23,2022-01-04 08:41:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/what-men-want-ch-03,Why cheaters cheat.,"['Cheater', 'Cheaters Cheat', 'Credit Cards', 'Frying Pan', 'Fuck People', 'Learn Love', 'Love Affection', 'People Fuck', 'Thing Person']",4.14,"**What Men Want Chapt 3-Why someone cheats, another chapter in the Almost series.** + _Foreword: I titled this, They vs He or She because the causes of cheating are somewhat bipartisan. They don’t vary by gender, so, if she’s doing it to you, or he is, it’s for somewhat the same reason, and although those reasons can vary, some are listed below, or the one’s I’ve figured out are, reasons are specific to the person, or the situation, and I’m sure some don’t fit these offerings. I have never cheated on anyone, I have been cheated on by many, and I understand it more than I once did, is all this is. Again, keep those cards and letters coming folks, you fuel my idea banks. And, this is dedicated to Kelly, a lovely young thing who took my place, for a time and gave what I couldn’t give. Thank you my dear._ +Cheaters. It’s a nasty word, it bespeaks of betrayal of trust, of sneakery and thievery, of dishonesty in the core of a being, they not only steal from others, they do it secretly and through being devious and deceptive, they worm their ways into the hearts of a lover only to then twist like a knife to hurt them thoughtlessly for superficial selfishness. It tells of a naughty thing bad people do, it’s a label that says evil, that says unworthy, even unethical and unkind. But WHY do they do it? +You’ll read theories by angry spouses that explain it’s because they’re cheating, low life, lying, no good, lousy, stinking, shallow and flawed, and insecure, and mean, and totally unsuitable to be allowed in the human race spouse is just a dog, a slug, a slime and an ingrate. They’ll tell you of the damage it did to their own trust (oh poor babies!) what a surprise it was to them and how these horrible thoughtless destroyers of beauty and good are in fact cads, and witches and evil beyond measure. It’ll talk about their upbringing, their parents, their friends and their work, and slyly suggest none of it was even THEIR fault or had anything to do with them. It paints them like victims, and what it doesn’t tell you is the truth. Or, I guess my question is, if it is the truth, then why’d you marry them to begin with? Did you expect them to change from being shallow, flawed, insecure, inadequate and mean and totally unsuitable, or did they fool you totally with nary a hint or a suggestion? If you did marry them knowing they had many problems and flaws, did you not realize the risk that they in fact might not be perfect or conform to your standards of excellence? Cause I’d think it might be smart to know someone a bit before marrying them, but what do I know…and of course, my goal isn’t just to get their paycheck and not have to work…so? Different strokes I guess…but the free lunch doesn’t happen often in life, so you get what you deserve at times. If you set forth choosing to be blind without seeing, don’t complain about the view. +Rule number one, cheaters cheat to get something they aren’t getting. Period. End report. Now what it is may vary, and indeed they may have some flaws, but no happy person goes looking for trouble just to see if it exists. This is almost a constant, except in the case of a psychopath, who then cheats just for the joy of so doing. For one, it’s a lot of work to cheat. You have to find someone else who wants to cheat with you, and even single men can tell you that’s not always easy! A lot of the girls out there won’t have a man who cheats, and actually are wise enough to ask if they’re married, and will not play with men who they even SUSPECT are! And for another, a person who is getting all they need, really doesn’t bother looking for something they don’t. No motive, no action! +People cheat to find fulfillment, and what that fulfillment is, varies by what it is they don’t have or don’t want to give up. They do it often as a form of compromise. A way to stay within that marriage or relationship, to raise those children, to honor their commitments and have the life they have invested in, and still have “me” time, and things they so desperately need, and don’t get elsewhere. It’s an oasis of me, in a sea of them, to many. It’s like going bowling, it’s like going fishing, it’s a hobby, a distraction and even a relief from the daily grind. To many it has very little emotional attachment, it is just physical, one dimensional and a solution to cope with a life they can’t seem to get everything from. It is often egocentric, in a world they are allowed no ego in. And sometimes it’s addictive as well, because it is naughty and it is totally egocentric. And there’s a high to that. It becomes a conquest and a getting over on someone that in time, can in fact flaw the individual who may have started for different reasons altogether. +No I don’t agree with it, nor is it a healthy way to live one’s life, but to solve it, you have to identify why they do it! And they aren’t all wrong! They aren’t! I will defend some of them. It is a case of situational ethics, of solutions to problems and compromise. So if you don’t want them to cheat, I”d suggest you consider not putting them in that situation, or if you don’t care if they do, well then quit WHINING! +Example: The man who marries the woman who just doesn’t want sex with him. He works, he pays the bills, he mows the lawn, he provides for her. He gives her a roof over her head, he may raise her children, he escorts her places, he takes her on vacation, he builds her a secure future and keeps her from a life of hardship. He buys her gifts, brings her champagne, he plans romantic escapes, he pleases her anyway he can, he takes her to dinner and the movies. All he wants is love and affection and warmth and intimacy in return. +OR…the woman whose man ignores her, comes home, never talks, never listens, goes to his shop, won’t interact, won’t do things with her, often won’t have sex with her, and often acts more like a vegetable with legs than a man or a lover, and all she wants is his love, affection and warmth and intimacy. +So when she or he refuses to give him or her that, says she/he doesn’t like it, or it’s not convenient, who’s doing the cheating???? And after months and years of this, he swallows hard and accepts that she isn’t going to give him that one little thing he so desperately needs, he sometimes decides, he loves her so much or the life they’ve built, that he’ll just solve it all but getting a little on the side. Or she will, cause it does happen the other way around too! +And I again ask you, whose the cheater in that. The man who earned, did, worked for, provided and got nothing in return, not even the consideration to want to meet him part way, or…the man who after providing all these things, and thinking of everything he possibly could to get this housekeeper gone mad to put out a little and like being with him intimately, he decides he won’t bother her for THAT any more and just get it somewhere else? +Is there anger in it? Of course there is! Lol…poor GUY! He had this vision of happily ever after when he walked down that aisle, with visions of sugar plums dancing in his head, he worked and he slaved, and he gave and he gave, and now he’s off begging some woman to please be his friend, because the one at home, has a headache, oh yet again. And according to the stories, HE’s the BAD GUY in it all for liking and needing sex, love and affection and intimacy! OH RIGHT! +There are different libido levels, and unfortunately sometimes they do end up in a relationship, but the bottom line is there are also lazy, thoughtless, inconsiderate uncaring, unfeeling, self involved people in marriages, and THEIR SPOUSES often CHEAT! And they then go boo hoo hoo! Because they couldn’t manipulate the last sense of spirit and passion out of that spouse. +There are also sexual preferences and inadequacies, which often get the press for these problems. The she left me cause my dick wasn’t big enough thing, or she left me for a woman, or he left me for a younger woman. Well? A dick that never wants them is about worthless regardless of it’s size, if they are indeed a latent homosexual, well somewhere in there, you were either deceived badly or refused to see, and if he left you for someone younger, it’s probably because she looks at him like a god, and idolizes him and actually takes care of her body, and goes places with him and laughs, so? It isn’t just an age thing or a size thing, it’s about not being what they need or caring enough to figure out what they need. If you have decided to turn into an old woman and he’s bored half to death, you’re right, he may decide he wants some one more alive and fun, and while he’s shopping maybe firm and luscious might as well go into it too, besides, if she’s younger, by the time she turns old and grey like you are now, well, he’ll be ready for one a bit slower by then…right fellas? +Hey, folks, you’re the ones boring them out the door, don’t mind me if I at least explain to you what you’re doing! They want fun, so do I! There’s nothing wrong with being alive, and you really don’t have to sit down to wait for your funeral, I promise, no one will hold it without you being there! You can’t be late to your own funeral, so go play! It’s ok! It’ll wait til you’re ready! +Is cheating right? Well compared to allowing someone to destroy your soul, it may be, but in actuality I don’t think so, I think it’s a case of two wrongs don’t make a right. Although they will defend it, as being better for the kids…I dunno! Some will even say “it’s not the money” OH PULLLEASE, it is SO! Lol! They don’t want to give up the big screen! It’s all of it…the house, the frying pan, the 401k, the kids, the dog, all of it…ok…maybe they’d give up the frying pan willingly. +I was a child in that, I’m not so sure it’s a good thing! +I also know a man who cheated for years, and his wife had learned to just look the other way, She knew, she didn’t admit she did, he hid it somewhat discreetly and they managed. But he said he wouldn’t leave her, because she would get half of everything, which? I guess, it’s what you value, your chance at happiness or half a double wide trailer, it’s all relative to what’s important to you I guess. +I know another couple, he’s in a position of power, he loves his power, and this is his second marriage. He brings his current mistress of the moment to social functions at his house, with his wife as hostess, and she swears he would NEVER cheat on her, and you’re standing there at this cocktail party with him being smug, the latest mistress (they’re a constant stream, young, over educated, stupid, sigh, whatever!) glaring at the wife, and the wife myopically serving pu-pus trying to convince everyone she hasn’t a clue! It’s all in what you like I guess…sigh…and EVERYone knows, he makes sure they do! And does he have a big one? They don’t come that big, in my book, folks…I don’t want any of him. And it is all about money, he has, they want, he trades. All it is. She won’t leave him! So she pretends she doesn’t know! She likes his credit cards! They’re BIG credit cards! +How do kids do in that? Well for one, they learn that love is nonsexual. They see this platonic relationship of some sort, perhaps with hidden issues, and they come to view that as normal. They don’t see the intimacy and affections between their parents that teach them it’s ok to develop those and respect their values. Often they are either totally ignored by the parents who are so busy focusing on their own needs ever so selfishly, or they are so totally inundated with parental affection with no healthy outlet they are all but smothered by it. So, yeah, it’s great for the kids, if you want to raise kids as screwed up as you are. And the sins of the parents shall manifest duofold in the kids…you reap what you sow. And I wish them luck at judgment day as they explain they didn’t realize. +And no, I am not softening this with kind words, it’s real! So, if it bothers someone to read this, perhaps they should open their eyes to what all of it does to their own families, wives, husbands, children and all, as they espouse they’re doing the right thing for everyone. And no I don’t just mean the person who is driven to seek comfort outside the boundaries of that relationship, I also mean the one who drives that person to that as a solution. It’s bad stuff, folks! It is not what love is supposed to do to people. So the cheater may in fact be the cheatee in many cases too. +There are other reasons cheaters cheat. There are. There is a group of people who cheat to keep a sense of themselves they refuse to give to a relationship. Fidelity is a gift we give, and some people can not bear to give it, they fear the loss of themselves in so doing, or that they’ll not have their own safety around them, so they cheat. They keep part of themselves intact and separate from a relationship. And the first group, who started cheating for reason can evolve into this group, but this group can evolve on their own too…and it is a form of addiction I think. Where the high becomes the conquest and they seek it as a form of satisfaction outside of sexual bliss. +These folks, like a former politician who made the news for months and months with some little tramp who kept the dress ever so handily, often will explain it isn’t SEX. Or it isn’t lovemaking more accurately, because to them it isn’t. It is often contained to them being recipients of pleasures, or they are somewhat non participatory during these escapades and therefore they rationalize that this isn’t the same thing as what they do with that person they care for, this is just an outlet they need. And those people are usually habitual cheaters, and they will often tell you they are long before you ever catch them. People do tell on themselves, if you listen. And Grand Jury’s listen and have microphones and TV cameras too…but it’s symptomatic of a much widely spread disease in society. One built on lack of acceptance of sex and it’s power and it’s rightful place in our lives as a joy we are given. +I am going to share a very good story someone told me the other day. The government doesn’t want people to fuck. Because people who fuck think, and if you don’t let people fuck, they won’t think, because if they do think, they’ll think about fucking, so the solution is, it’s patriotic and American to fuck. Support our country, fuck tonight! +And if you don’t want your spouse to seek it elsewhere, then I suggest you give it up, boys and girls! And do it very damned well. It doesn’t have to get boring, it’s a creative element in and of itself. It has lots of ways to stay fresh and exciting. If you’re on this website, you’re probably very aware of some of those. +And if that spouse is cheating, it may take YOU time to earn THEIR trust and belief in YOU Again should you wish to keep your relationship intact. Many cheaters do eventually leave that relationship, often because they can’t live a dual life, and one day they choose. But of course, the spouse who didn’t cheat always claims she threw them out…yeah RIGHT! +Not til they were already half packed and headed out the door anyway. Begging to please please, just meet them half way…and they answered by yelling get out. So yeah, they threw them out, I suppose, if you want to look at it that way, but of course, first they tortured them for a few years. OH right, they skip that part, don’t they! Silly me! +I don’t agree with cheating, but I understand it. And if you force a person to do it, you’re no less guilty than they are, in fact, you’re probably more guilty. Sex is important, and so is affection, understanding, intimacy and trust. They trusted you to care about them and you didn’t, so don’t yell at them if they then learned to not care about you, or tried to anyway, and took that one element somewhere else, because you didn’t like it anyway. +And for all you cheaters out there, sigh…what you do to that third person in that isn’t fair. It isn’t. You make him or her, pay the dues your lazy thoughtless spouse won’t pay, and then in return you expect to give nothing to get that. It’s a nasty mess for people, and for those contemplating cheating with someone, or fall into that trap, I suggest you get clear of that whirlpool if you can. Cheaters don’t love, they only use. They already gave at the office is why. +For the third persons in it, hey, make him take you someplace nice, cause you aren’t getting much else out of it! Although yes, sometimes they do learn to love too. It does happen. But it’s often a mess before it does. Good luck to you. +And to those potential cheaters contemplating or considering, you may want to look at other options too. It is not a simple thing you consider. For anyone. And you become like the one who does it to you." +903,What We Like,KnPinTN,How To,2004-06-24,2004-06-24,2022-01-04 08:41:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/what-we-like,He describes his pussy-eating technique.,"['Rear Wall', 'Start Make', 'Tongue Tip', 'Wall Vagina']",4.51,"P likes it when I kiss and nibble her neck and shoulders. I'm not sure but when I do it very slowly she seems to enjoy it more. P has very pretty, delicate inner labia as the pics on line show. I like to suck one or both in between my lips and move my head around just enough to stretch them slightly. This usually elicits little mewls of pleasure from her and starts to light that fuse I talk about in our profile. I like to tease her in the beginning with very light licks and sucks of the inner thighs, pudenda (pubic mound) and labia. Once she escalates to a preorgasmic stage I like to slide one finger inside her vagina and lightly caress her G-spot and surrounding area. She also responds well to massaging of the rear wall of her vagina. I'll alternate between those two areas (about 20 or 30 seconds +each) while tickling her clit with my tongue. She's usually thrusting her hips skyward by now trying to increase the pressure of the caresses. She may say she doesn't like it but I try to delay her first climax until she can't stand it any more, holding her just below her orgasmic threshold. When you +think she's ready take a second finger and insert- it with the first. Just inside the front wall of her vagina there's an arch of bone or cartilage right in front of her G-spot. I use the ends of these two fingers to squeeze the tissue between that bone and my fingers. This almost always puts her over the top and into orgasmic bliss. And hold on...it's a real roller coaster ride from now on! Alternate tongue strokes on her clit up and down to side to side. Sucking it in between your lips and flicking it with your tonguetip rapidly. Once she seems to be coming down from her cum, move your fingers to the rear wall of her vagina and she'll start all over again. To make her squirt pull your fingers out, quit licking and rapidly move your +four fingertips up and down over her entire labial area. It should be very wet and slippery and when you start stroking she usually bears down and squirts all over your hand and fingers. First and foremost K loves pussy, preferably shaved like the day you were born. It's so much more sensuous when my tongue can glide over the mons veneris giving goose bumps to the woman as I start to make love to her. The heady aroma of her vaginal folds start to waft upwards to my nostrils creating the most wonderful aphrodisiac in the world. I can feel my cock harden as her labia start to flower open to my view. The first dewdrops of excitement appear on the petals of her rose. I dip my tongue tip delicately into her blossom and get my first taste of her ambrosia. The nectar of the Gods never tasted this good! I tap dance my tongue down her cuntal furrow and push just inside her vaginal opening. Her walls contract around my lingual member in appreciation for the exquisite stimulation to come. Her clitoris peeks out from under its protective hood hoping to attract some of the attention. And who am I to refuse, right? With my two thumbs I peel open her swollen outer labia even wider. The picture in front of my eyes is better than any Rembrandt or Monet. An intricate arrangement of pinks and reds designed to tantalize my senses of sight, smell, taste and feel. +I bend close to this work of art and breath in her wonderful perfume. I push my nose against her clit and dip my tongue into her sweet honeypot. I feel her hips and thighs spasm as the sensations become almost too much to bear. I push deeper into her coralline cavern and run my tongue tip all around the moistening walls, brushing my nose back and forth over her erect nub. Suddenly I hear a gasp escape her throat and I know it's time!!! I move my mouth up and suck her entire clitoral area between my lips, thrusting and parrying my tongue directly against her most sensitive part. I like using the underside of my tongue on her clit because it's so much smoother and slipperier. It causes cold chills to run up and down her spine as her orgasm overloads her brain with pleasure. +Unintelligible sounds emanate from her throat as she slips into a consciousness known only by the few who have experienced the ultimate sexual bliss. My tongue tip flicks back and forth over her spasming spike. Her lower pelvic muscles seize up and contract violently. Finally I get my reward as a thin stream of girly cum shoots into my mouth. I hear her grunting out her ultimate release just before her body collapses on the bed, totally spent. Her eyelids flutter as she floats in a world of post-orgasmic bliss. More juices seep out from between her labia as the muscles start to relax. I hungrily lap them up, savoring the delicious delicacy. +Slowly her brain returns to this world. She manages a weak smile that I recognize as a well earned ""thank you"". You're very welcome, I kind of enjoyed it myself too you know!!" +904,What Women Want From Men,almost,How To,2003-02-26,2003-04-29,2022-01-04 08:42:00,3,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/what-women-want-from-men,1. The other side of the story from a woman about female needs. 2. How to take the chill out your bed. 3. Awakening dormant female sexuality.,"['Feminine Side', 'Girl Thing', 'Good Girls', 'Good Thing', 'Guys Talk', 'Love Sexual', 'Men', 'Radio Station', 'Rest Pretty', 'Time Men']",4.34,"Having seen the recent (and EVERY) Mel Gibson movie, about what a woman wants, I’m no closer to knowing what women really want than he was and I am one. I, however, will admit, that what I want varies some, and I wouldn’t mind sharing it if I could figure it out. And I think perhaps the reason we’re so hard to understand is we even hide knowing what we want from ourselves. We call that changing our minds, it’s just semantics though, for I forget or, I’m not sure I know, or what I want today may, in fact, be different tomorrow. I think its sort of one of those, if NO one knows the secret, it can’t get out things, so we don’t even tell ourselves. You know it’s kind of a good thing we’re cute at times, isn’t it? +Searching through the twisted halls of the Inner Sanctums of Feminine Logic, even when one speaks the language, isn’t easy. We want LOTS of things, and we keep losing the dang list! We want to be blonde, no brunette, no maybe a redhead or wait can you just put some highlights in for me? We want to be smarter, no dumber, well, maybe only sort of smart. We want to be taller, or shorter, or maybe, more medium and we ALL want our butts to look smaller, except the one woman who reads this and says, I don’t! Not me, my butt is fine the way it is, she’s wrong! So okay then, the rest of us want our butts to look smaller and you just don’t care what yours looks like! +And I think the key to it is, as long as we can get out of any conversation with anyone, by saying, you’re wrong, we’re almost happy. And that seems to be a pretty consistent trait with women, we like to be right. We can be argumentative, we can be deliberately confusing, but we do confusing almost by confusing ourselves, and then try to explain it from the standpoint of reason, like we’re serious, and sometimes we are the only ones we really convince we are serious, let alone making sense. That also confuses us into believing we aren’t confused, and further confuses whom ever we are out to confuse, did I make that clear enough? It’s a case of. insert part ‘a’ into slot ‘b’, only remark it slot ‘a’ so there are now two slot ‘a’s and then put part ‘c’ into any slot it will fit in and call a plumber. Got it? Every husband and male in a relationship just agreed, didn’t ya guys? It’s not you ‘got it’, it’s you won’t even try to go there, and we sort of know that…see you guys are kind of predictable that way. That would be score… home team two, visitors zip. And we don’t need mirrors to do it either, we come by it naturally. +And the reason they don’t let women play football is, we’d get out there and change the rules, we would! It’s a dumb game anyway, so it needs remodeling, so maybe a pale lavender for the other guys pants, and a sprig of lily of the valley for the brunettes and? See? It’s sort of instinct with us females to change things. And without us, you men would all live in bachelor hell. Consider that. For every good thing there is a counter part in an alternate universe. And sour cream may even go “good” when it’s left out all night in some of them. +Ah, and the world then had this sexual revolution and now we don’t have to cook as often, and then they have women’s rights so we get paid more, and then there’s chivalry although slowly it is becoming out of style, so we still get our seats on the bus from some of you, life should be good for us ladies about now, but I think the truth is we’re at least as confused by all of this stuff as men are. And I’m not sure we’re always happy with how the world is. And in that may be a key to what makes us tick I think… +Once upon a time, men did battle, they slew dragons, they wore shining armor and rode great white horses. They dashed, and we called them dashing, and women swooned and you guys caught us before we tumbled to the ground, if there was a puddle in life’s sidewalk a man threw his coat over it, which still makes no sense to me, now my feet get wet, his coat is dripping and we’re supposed to find that helpful and courteous? Sounds like some dry cleaning company put that idea together if you ask me! But you were our heroes, you solved the world’s problems, you provided comfort and gentility, you took us dancing, you fought for our honor and our hand, and you took care of us, and all we had to do was wear dresses and look cute. Or so the stories say? +There were bad guys and good guys, and they wore the appropriate colored hats, so we could tell who was who, the music played to signal danger or dastardly deeds about to unfold, we had little princess phones that lit up and we all dreamed of some guy showing up with a glass slipper and it only fit us. And away we all flew in the arms of a dark stranger with deep mysterious eyes and a smile that promised delights we had never considered. We twirled in our dreams, we pranced, we wore silk and satin and lace. We were Joan of Arc at times, yielding the sword of the righteous, we were Jackie O foxhunting in a her pill box hat, we were Tinkerbell flitting to and fro to warn Peter of danger, and we had a fairy godmother to rescue us from a cruel life of drudgery and we ended up comparing Maytag and Frigidaire and trying to budget enough for pizza on Fridays.. I seriously suspect I’m not the only one wondering what the hell went wrong. I keep waiting for the old broad with the magic wand to show up to clean house for me, sigh. +So when it comes down to what we want, well we’d like life to be simple again I think, or more glamorous, or less exhausting or more exciting, we wish some of the fairy tales were true, we want illusions sometimes and delusions of grandeur, even if they only last until the kids wake up, and I almost doubt I’ll get a lot of argument on that, other than that one girl who still is cranky about the comment about her butt size, we women also bear grudges you see, we’re like elephants, we don’t forget! +We want flowers in the spring, and maybe on special occasions, we want thoughtfulness, which is maybe the biggest key to it all, we want to know we’re in your thoughts, and whether its flowers or candy or just a cute note, that’s what we’re after, constant reassurance you love us, and we’re you’re little princess, even if we aren’t so little or anyone else’s. +We like to think you think about us, and we think about you? It’s a girl thing to think about you boys, and it amazes us you men don’t seem to ever think about us like we do, because you guys don’t talk, probably cause I used up more than my share of words, but? The point is we do…we just gush out our feelings, we say, we whine, we carry on, we vent, we wheedle, we rage and we storm, and sometimes we just chat for fun too! that you think about us enough to see through all the mystique and confusion, we want to be your puzzles. We want you to solve us, put us together. We want to be understood, is part of it, and that may to some extent be, because we can’t figure ourselves out either! So we’re hoping you can, cause you did put that silly “requires some assembly” thing together, and I think, most of us require some assembly. Or if we don’t, we will! We like it when you assemble us, but? Careful now, don’t tell us we need to be different then we are or we’ll assume you don’t love us. We’re fragile, we’re tough, we’re evilly wonderful for moments and sometimes we’re just boring as hell. +We like attention, we like to be the focus of yours, and to us, it equivalates carrying, we want to be cared for, and not just tangibly. We want to come home to candles and wine, we want to have our backs rubbed at times and asked how our day was, and maybe even listened to intently! Not this mumbled, unhuh, or that frozen deer caught in the headlights look you men get when you’re sure any answer will invoke a fight. The reaction to does my butt look big in these pants, and the correct answer IS! Honey, you’re butt, no matter how it changes over the years makes me just grin, you know I love your butt, and I will always love your butt, and yes I like how you look in those pants…or if the pants look terrible, say, and yes, those pants aren’t your most flattering…I like the GREEN ones better, that’s all it takes…women are like guns? If you aim us we’re fine, but don’t just pull the trigger and don’t look where we’re pointed or we could hurt some one, and it may end up being YOU! +There are studies, and I’ve read a few, and I’ll probably misquote them some in this,but in one, I read that women use some 20,000 more words daily on average then men do, which just boggled me as I started to count the words I used, going I don’t use 20,000 words a day do I? Let alone 20,000 MORE words, good heavens! And most of the men who know me are hiding the laughter behind their hands, thinking oh she uses more than her share, oh boy does she! And in that same article it said, men’s thumbs were twenty times as strong as a woman’s from generations of pulling triggers and bows and arrows and things, and that I’ll buy into, and now I know why you get the jars open, when I can’t, it’s heredity! And ya know, I think it wasn’t just triggers you strengthened those thumbs on guys… +Now in all that somewhere are some statements about evolution and our less civilized backgrounds that sociologists could probably explain at length in great detail. The hunter and the gatherer thing, being part of that, where men evolved as a hunting creature, who had to forget and move on if he missed the mastodon, or it was not an option to call for pizza, so he must move forward, he couldn’t dwell on things or seek solace for a bad day, and he couldn’t be chatting or the mastodon’s would here him sneaking up on them and if he didn’t get meat? the woman was gonna leave him for a guy who could hunt, and women had to stay by the cave and protect the young, and remember where that patch of blackberries was each year so they could go gather them, and worried about predators attacking, and what time Martha Stewart came on, and whether to do the cave in a faux wash of mint greens to match the moss or to leave it sort of natural and just accent it, so the learning skills and thinking processes evolved differently for each gender is I think what happened. +And then civilization added it’s madness to it all with clothes and morality and rules and neighbors, and then churches got in on it with the thou shalts and thou shalt not’s…and about them they came up with this good girls do, and nice girls don’t, or do I have that backwards, and so every little princess out there isn’t really sure what it’s about. And without meaning to sound sacri-religious, even Mary didn’t have sex? +So in all that is how we came about, the modern day woman, we need to be androgenous at work, we need to think like men, we need to grow the bacon, catch it, butcher it, cure it, slice it, and cook it, and about then any one who expects it served too, is gonna get hurt! +We need to be mothers and self reliant, smart and less concerned with being female, we get bombarded with marketing showing us as intelligent and capable, and I think what we are losing touch with is OUR feminine side. It’s not men who need to get in touch with theirs, it’s women who need to refind theirs. Things like pleasures and relaxing and enjoyment of sensuality and feminity don’t fit well with being super Mom and upper management execs. +So what we want from men, hasn’t really changed that much, we just almost forget what we want, and in that, maybe what we need is to be reminded we are women, and ladies, and lovers and friends and sexual creatures. +Once upon a time, men so feared women’s sexuality, and that it would lead to promiscuity and disloyalty that they, you guys, took it away from women. You did, you taught us not to want it, that it was bad to want it, and that only THOSE kind of women did want it, and it’s message comes through early and consistently. Ladies sit like this, ladies don’t swear, ladies do this…and blondes have more fun! +So we want masculine men, period, we all do, we love your maleness, it appeals to our femaleness on a primal level. But with that, we have to have the time and the inclination to shift from our daily living as mothers and car pool drivers and business people, and for that we need romance or gentleness. We need to be understood, that actually we do love being sexual, we just can’t remember that at times. So we need to be reminded gently. +We need to be believed in, we desperately need to be loved, and held and stroked and petted. Just like men do. We need to be included in your lives, as something important. We need to matter more than going fishing on Saturdays or to the gym or even to work. We need to be able to talk to you, to tell you things without being afraid you’ll be hurt or won’t listen too. Things like our fantasies and our hopes and dreams, even our feelings. +It’s not that hard to do even, dedicate a song to us on a radio station, agree to listen to the same radio station together at certain times of the day. Bring a flower home for no specific reason, even pick one and bring it in, small things touch us, things that say I think about you, or even I had this spontaneous thought of you, and you matter. Send a post card on a business trip from the airport, that says If something should ever happen to me, I want you to know how much I love you. Things like that, are what we want and need. +Do the dishes once, and say, Let me, your tired. Arrange to send the kids away one evening and surprise me with a dinner out, or a dinner in, or just pizza and you! Take time to reach our feminine side, and make us want to reach out to you, is about all it takes. +Sexual technique is great it is, and women do take more to warm up then men do. Men externalize sex and internalize feelings, and women internalize sex and externalize feelings, so when you guys don’t talk and don’t say and don’t argue, we take it to be indifference and lack of caring. Because to us, we’d say something! +But in seventh grade, I looked up, intercourse in the dictionary, in that curious stage of what is this stuff, ooh, and was terribly disappointed to learn the definition was a conversation, well, in someways, that is about all one really needs to know about sex. It is communication, physical, emotional, intellectual, primal and basic, communication between people who so love and so care for each other that they need to unite as one. And if you keep that in mind, the rest is pretty easy. Without communication, physical, verbal, or written, we are separate entities. And it has to start somewhere, before it can reach all. +Most women’s fantasies do revolve around being ravished and taken, swept off their feet, made to be sexually uninhibited, and they are away to get past those societal bonds we’ve all had placed on us, and they feel very very wrong to have. But they’re real. They are. And they are a way to deal with things like inhibitions. But to get to those, we have to trust you really do want to know, it’s not going to be misunderstood, or lead to places we really don’t want to go, and that you actually love us for being sexual. That good girl thing again. We have been taught, good girls get, and bad girls oooh, get left behind. +We’ve learned about each other on TV, and movies, and through marketing hype? Through articles written by people who don’t know and don’t even like, the other sex, and through negativity. We’ve learned sexuality is overrated and unnecessary and can be evil, that men are bad, men need to be tamed and civilized, men are too primnal, they’re tough and mean, and you men aren’t! And we women aren’t all witches either…and I guess what we all need is a little private time, to explore each other, be attentive, listen with our hearts and eyes, and hear with our souls. Take the time to enjoy our trip together, and each other, and the differences, and when an orgasm is the only goal, well, we miss a lot of the joy of the trip, and we often don’t get where we want to go that way. +What we want is to be part of you and your lives. We want appreciation shown and verbalized, we want regular reminders that you care, and we want to know that to you, sex is about showing feelings, and the rest should pretty much fall into place. Or it did at my house. +Hope this helps! + +" +905,What Women Want,oldr_betr,How To,2012-12-11,2012-12-11,2022-01-04 08:41:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/what-women-want-2,Essay on how to please your partner.,"['Advice On Women', 'Pleasing You Partner', 'Relationship Advice', 'Sex Advice']",4.06,"In my experience, the kind of guy who writes an essay entitled ""What Women Want"" has been to bed with lots of women -- maybe a hundred or more. I haven't. I've petted and played with a few in high school and college, but I've actually fucked exactly three; the number between 2 and 4, and I was married to two of those. +How presumptuous of me to write this essay when I have so little experience. It's not necessarily my experience I base this on, but the experience of the women I've known. My ex-wife screwed around on me. (Hence, the term ""ex-wife"") Before I acknowledged this and did something about it, she began to tell me what a great lover I was. She told me I had a gorgeous dick, but she was a nurse and got to see some dicks. She had an orgasm every time we screwed and sometimes two. I appreciated the complements, but since we were both virgins when we met, I wondered how she was able to make the comparison. +I mentioned she was a nurse so she felt the need to fuck a couple of doctors (at least two, maybe more) and I was better than they were -- not much surprise there. I find most doctors to be personality and socially challenged. I'm big on loyalty, so when she betrayed me, I split. In the process, I took up with a woman who had some real experience. I was number 25 or 26 or 27(she couldn't remember) and she was 10 years younger. She had fucked her two husbands, a guy in a wife swap, a guy she went to the Caribbean with and knew for a total of a week, a guy she worked with who slept on her couch and smoked pot every night, a guy she worked with who was married, a telephone repairman who was married and whose wife left him because of the affair, her brother-in- law, her ex husband after he remarried, and several others. This girl liked to fuck and didn't spend many nights alone. As with the ex, she told me time and again, that I was the best. You are likely thinking, ""so?"" Of course she told you that, she told everyone that. Maybe she did tell all the guys, but she told her girlfriends, several of whom were also into recreational sex. This lead to some problems because a couple of them made moves on me and it got pretty tense at times. +Finally, I married wife number 2 and for her I was number 7 in terms of actually fucking and number 9 in terms of blowjobs. She's still with me and tells me I have the best looking dick she has ever seen and that I am the best lover she has ever had, by far. Since we are both in our 60's and have been married for over 20 years, I tend to believe she's telling me the truth. +Therefore, what do women want? Well, women like to fuck. It's in their DNA. How will humans procreate the race if men and women don't fuck each other? It's simple science. Accepting that women like to fuck, it's important to make the experience one they enjoy because, and here is a key point, the more they enjoy the experience, the better you will enjoy it. If you want to get a really good piece of pussy -- make sure she has a good time. +Let me explain a little further. Women like to fuck; they do not like to be fucked with. Treat them with respect and affection and it will be returned. One way to let them know how important they are is to show them your hard-on. When I'm ready to screw, I let my wife know I'm erect. I may just put her hand the front of my jeans so she can feel it, or walk around in my bikini underwear with my dick straining to get out, or just walk up on her naked and say, ""Look what you're doing to me."" She (and most women) get hot when they know they have to power to get your blood from your brain to your dick. +Keep your dick looking nice. I shave mine -- the shaft, my balls, and an area of pubic hair around my dick. When she gives you a blowjob, she wants your dick her mouth -- not a bunch of hair. +Find out what she wants out of sex. It may be different every time. Sometimes women just want to cuddle. You can fuck them and you can cum, but they just want to be held. If that's the case, go along with it. Don't insist they have an orgasm. +Maybe, on a different occasion, she wants it a little rough. Possibly she wants to be spanked and fucked hard. No matter how tired you are, oblige. +There are a number of toys out there that do a great job of bringing a woman to an orgasm. For example, the popular ""rabbit"" has a short dick that rotates in her pussy while a vibrator stimulates her clit at a range of speeds. She will explode with this thing. If that's what she wants, do it. The machine will enhance her experience and she will be so turned on, you will have your brains fucked out. +If she wants you to eat her pussy or pinch her nipples or suck her toes -- do it. You'll enjoy it and she will make sure you have a good time. I've covered her pussy with chocolate syrup and eaten it; I've put a plastic sheet on the bed and greased us both down with warm baby oil and we slid all over each other as we fucked. +If she's into games or a little light bondage, go with it. Don't be impatient. Let her get hot they way she wants to. If she wants you to watch her masturbate, watch. I've blind folded her and tied her hands to the bed. Then I nibble on her tits, kiss her stomach and lick her pussy while I also give her drinks of champagne. Then I stick my dick in the champagne and she licks it off -- still blindfolded and bound. When we finally fucked, she had an orgasm that shook the house. +Many women I have not fucked but have talked with about sex like to show off. I believe (and I could be wrong) that a large percentage of women are at least closet exhibitionists. If yours likes to show off, don't get jealous -- get hard. It can be a real turn on to have other people notice the one you're going to take home and fuck. If that's what she wants, let her have her fun. Maybe she wants to do it outdoors with a chance of getting caught. And what if you are caught? Big deal. Most people will love it and go home and fuck like bunnies themselves. +Let her pick the porn. If she wants to watch or read a little something to get going, let her decide. What guys like may not be what she likes. Remember your goal -- to get her so hot and so wet all she can think about is fucking you so let her decide how she gets there. +Lot's of women like to give blowjobs. They like the oral gratification and the idea that they control when you cum. If your partner swallows your cum and then wants to kiss you -- do it. She just took your dick in her mouth and then let you cum all over her mouth, tongue, and throat -- and you won't kiss her? It's just cum. If it doesn't hurt her, it won't hurt you and she will remember you were willing to kiss her with your cum in her mouth -- it is some kind of a turn on. +To reiterate, women like to fuck but don't like to be fucked with. Treat her with respect and affection, let her have what she wants in bed and you will have pussy for life." +906,When It's Over,bewindsor,How To,2006-06-15,2006-06-15,2022-01-04 08:42:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/when-its-over,The 5 Stages of Grieving the Loss of a Relationship.,"['Being Dumped', 'Break Up', 'End Of Relationship', 'Grieving']",4.66,"**When It's Over: The 5 Stages of Grieving the Loss of a Relationship** +Sometimes, no matter how hard we try, the time comes when we realize that the relationship is over. Sometimes this is a mutual decision and others the choice of only one. Rest assured though, if you have been in this relationship for any length of time, both people are experiencing a form of loss to varying degrees. Typically, we view this time as an ending. The chapter has concluded and now it is time to turn the page. +Turning the page on a particularly deep relationship, especially if you were not ready for it to end, is often hard. We, the one left behind, ask ourselves many questions laden with self-doubt. Our ego has taken quite a hit and now we are left with a swirl of questions, and often, few immediate answers. Friends or family will tell us the old, worn-out saying, ""There are plenty of fish in the sea"", but at this point in our lives we don't want ""other fish"". We want ""the fish"" that we may well have believed was the ""big catch"" we had been fishing for and finally caught. Though our friends mean well, they are pushing us to move too quickly past what can be a time of healing and self-discovery. +Modern psychology tells us the second most intense life stress (after death) is divorce or loss of a love relationship. The feelings of excruciating pain, loss, and depression are real emotions not to be ignored, buried, or minimized. We must allow our emotions to run their course if we are ever going to regain our ability to get on with our lives. +Though you may not realize it, you are grieving and that grief is perfectly healthy and normal. +Everyone deals with grief differently. Some people cry. Some people bond with their anger and scream until their throat is sore. Some of us crawl into bed and try to sleep the pain away. Some withdraw from social settings and others over eat. What we are all clearly in search of is to experience some form of comfort during a time when it seems like nothing will ever makes us feel safe and secure again. A great love has left us and we don't expect to get over it; ever. +David Kessler and Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross in their book, On Death and Dying, provided the modern psychological world with a widely accepted model of the five stages of grief. Below is my personal adaptation of these stages as it pertains to the loss of a relationship: +1\. Denial +The body's natural defense system works to protect us from threatening situations during the initial stages. You may find yourself operating on ""cruise control"". You are going through the normal, everyday activities of your life, but you are only vaguely aware of what is happening. You are, in all actuality, only ""going through the motions"". It is common to expect him or her to call or show up at any time and this whole situation will be explained as a simple misunderstanding. +2\. Anger +This is the beginning of the heartache. You will allow your anger to rage. You might rehash details of the relationship over and over again questioning everything that was said or done. You might beat yourself up over ever allowing yourself to get involved with ""any one like that"" in the first place. +3\. Bargaining +It is common in this stage to rehash the past, but not in the way you did before. Now you are reliving the good times and often with rose-colored glasses. You remember the good times and you begin to view the bad times as not that bad after all. Here you may find yourself plotting ways to get your lover back, but often by sacrificing your needs. You might think, ""If I could just get him to take me back, I will never be jealous about his affairs again."" +4\. Depression +Your anger and scheming has finally subsided and now you have hit bottom. This is, with out a doubt, the most painful stage. Here you will question if you can ever be happy again. The finality of the situation has set in to your mind. It is over and now you know it. Often, this stage is where the feelings of loss and hopelessness are strongest. +5\. Acceptance +Time can heal all wounds, but time alone will not be enough. During this stage, we come to grips with the raging tide of emotions. We have ended the internal struggle and have completed the healing process of grief. +If you have recently ended an intensely emotional relationship, you should see yourself within one of these five stages right now. It is important to remember that the emotions you are feeling are natural. You are emotionally healing. Embrace this time and allow yourself to move steadily through each stage. +You should be aware that continuing to struggle with your grief may cause you to remain within one stage for an extended period of time and even cause you to fall back into an earlier stage. As is always the case with human beings, everyone is different. You may progress quickly or you may linger in each stage far longer than you would like. Whatever the case, it is important not to put a time limit on yourself. Your mind and body will know when it is time to move on and forcing yourself to move on before they are ready can lead to further complications. +Facing the end of a love relationship is difficult to say the least. But, it is my sincere hope that you will find comfort in knowing that the overwhelming range of emotions you are experiencing are completely normal, healthy and most importantly temporary. +And so the chapter has finished. It's ok to pause and collect your thoughts. It is not the end of the book. Ahead of you lie many more pages of joy, fulfillment, and adventure. When you are ready, you will turn the page and whole new chapter will begin." +907,When You Share Your Wife,Tabbisfull,How To,2015-07-06,2015-07-06,2022-01-04 08:42:05,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/when-you-share-your-wife,What you should know about your wife with others.,"['Cum In My Wife', 'Fuck My Wife', 'Hot Wife', 'Shared Wife', 'Slut Wife', 'Swinging', 'Wife Cheats', 'Wife Fucks', 'Wife Sharing']",4.3,"In continuation of our series about How to Share your Wife, we would like to share a few more experiences that lad us to this erotic lifestyle. My wife has decided to share her personal thoughts as well. In our prior ""How To"" I shared a few of the games we played that eventually resulted in my wife sleeping with a friend. I'm going to get right in to a few more. +Be prepared: +Once you let it be known that you are turned on about sharing your wife, the men will tell you some things some things you may not have thought about. They feel the liberty to say anything they wish about your wife. It may shock at first a little, but it should become a turn on quickly. That is if you are truly in to them having sex with your wife. +My friend has become bold and frank about what he likes and wants with my wife. He has asked me to shave her pussy smooth for him. He has also sent her home shaved once when she had let a little grow. Rick also likes talking about his meaty dick and Tabi's tight little pussy. He has asked out right if he could come over to fuck Tabi. It's a turn on when he calls and sends texts about his plans with my wife. +Tabi is submissive with Rick. That's part of what she likes about being shared. He can make her be naughty in ways that I could never. He made her let a guy in a coffee house see her panties by pulling her dress up high on her lap. Another time he made her pull her panties down in front of another friend. He pushes the limits sometimes. He tells me what he would like to make her do. Rick gets off on showing her off even though she is my wife. He once told me that he was going to make her let another friend fuck her in front of him. She said she isn't going to do that, but I think she has already done something similar. I know when he made her pull her panties down in front of our friend he also made her let him touch her. Rick got off on that. Rick watched a little then took her to the patio and fucked her where the guy could see my wife being fucked. That was kind of a quickie. After Rick finished in her, he brought her right back in to hang out with him and his friend. +Rick is the one who tells me most of these things. Tabi usually doesn't volunteer much unless I ask. She answers with more detail when she is in the mood. They are short answers when she isn't horny. For example, Rick has texted me saying that he just was with Tabi I get home and ask, ""Hey Baby, How was your day?"" When he has worn her out and she had good orgasms, she says something like, ""Oh, it was pretty good."" And she tries to leave it at that. On the other hand, I have asked the same question and her answer is, ""Well, Rick had your little wife today."" Or ""Well, your friend had me today."" When she talks like this, I know she is in a naughty mood. She has recently discovered the husband after thing. She will get with me while she is still messy. She is very talky when she does this. +If you are serious about your wife dating your friends and or other men, be prepared. Most wives will enjoy this promiscuity even if you have to lead her there. My wife had no idea. She was even afraid at first. Once she allowed herself in the position to be romanced and seduced, she gave in to her desires. I had to provide assistance by setting up times for it to be convenient for her to cheat if she wanted. +Although my wife is now open about her cheating, she still prefers the cheating alone style over me being there. I wasn't prepared this first time I saw my wife getting it. I was somewhat shocked, but not completely. My friend had told me what he did with her, but it was a few months before I actually saw my wife getting laid. What I saw didn't fit the description of what I had been told. The first time it happened in our house with me here, I looked in from outside the room. She was aware I was there and was kind of tame. It truly appeared as if she was more or less allowing my fried to do it to her. I actually wondered if she was in to it at all, or was she just doing it. Later I was able to watch without her being aware. She was completely different than what I had seen the first time. Without her knowing I was there, she was all in to it even asking for it. Even begging. +I figured it out. She didn't mind me knowing that she was sleeping with my friend, but she was shy about me knowing how much she loved it and what she really enjoyed doing. The next time I saw her being fucked, I arranged again so that she didn't know I was watching. This was a completely different experience. It was much more intense than I had anticipated. It was crazy erotic and gut wrenching at the same time. I now understand why she prefers the privacy. +If you want to watch your wife, especially without her knowing, be prepared. I had to watch my wife as the passion began. I watched her initiate passionate kissing. She was actually the one starting the play. I watched my wife as she undid his pants while she was kissing him. I saw her giggly as she asked him, ""How do you want me today?"" It was terribly obvious that she was in the mood and wanted to be fucked. It's awakening to see your wife wanting it so much. +Some things she said drove a nail in my stomach until my dick took over the thinking. I had to hear her say things like, ""Take my clothes off!"" Some of the things I will never forget: +""Please lick me; then take my shoes off."" +""What do you want to do to me?"" +""Please put it in me."" +""Hold my feet open."" +And eventually, ""Do what you want to do to me; I want it; I want to be your toy."" +My wife generally does not curse, but she even let out a few, ""FUCK ME!"" +Her verbal and her actions painted a different picture. I learned that cheating was her opportunity to have completely uninhibited raw animalistic sex. I had to watch him enter her from behind with her screaming from extasy. He laid her face down across our bed with her legs together. He then straddled her and entered her pussy from behind. She curled her toes as she kicked her little feet while he pounded in to her. I listened to her beg and encourage him as it appeared that he was punishing her with sex. It even sounded like a little crying laced in with the screaming and begging as he drove his manhood into my wife. I had never seen her like this and had no idea she had this in her. +When she felt that he was about to come, she begged, ""Don't come out; Don't pull it out of me. Come inside me. I want it in me. Come in me please. I want to keep it in me."" +Of course he did. He came inside my wife's little pussy like she was his to come in. When he finished inseminating my wife didn't pull out instantly. After catching her breath, she hopped up to the side of the bed and took him in her mouth. She has never done anything remotely close like this with me. I could see cum on his dick, and she was licking it and swallowing it. +She kissed him down there and told him that he didn't have to leave yet. She clearly wanted more, because she hadn't come yet. She still had a begging tone. I saw cum drip when she pulled up her panties. She pulled over a shirt, but that was all she wore for him as she admitted to wanting more after a short rest. They talked about when they could get together again and about him spending the night with her. She added, ""You can take me away overnight if you want."" +Soon the talk had reached them both, and he was back in her. She was clearly determined to come this time. She touched herself as he fucked her. Then she got on top of him and did most of the fucking. She lap rode him several minutes. Then she when she was about to cum, she leaned forward on him. She went for a kiss, but she was so out of control of her body that she dripped slobber in his face. Her little body started twitching as it sounded like she was starving for breath. Her toes curled and her feet kicked as she had her orgasm on his dick. He was releasing his sperm in her as she finished her convulsing. They kissed when she caught her breath. +They talked a little. Shortly they were getting dressed. Again, I saw cum drip in to her panties as she pulled them up. She got dressed all except for her shoes, and he dressed to leave. +She looked so hot with her I just got fucked look. I let him get out the door, before I came in. She was a little nervous probably because it was obvious that she had just been fucked. I didn't bring it up as I let her rest maybe fifteen or twenty minutes. That was truly hot. She didn't know that I had watched, but knew that I knew she had just been laid. She didn't resist when I started loving on her. She pulled her panties to the side when she got on me to ride my face. Some cum had dripped in her panties, and some was on her just fucked messy pussy. She wanted her pussy eaten. Cum came out of her as I licked her clit and tongued her pussy. I could smell the sex she had enjoyed with my friend. I tried not to swallow any cum, but some of it got past my tongue. I then pinned her down face down like he had her and fucked her hard as I could. It was like punishment sex and makeup sex all in one. I made her tell me naughty things like how she wanted me to let others fuck her. I reached under her and touched her as I pounded to let her cum. She didn't put on quite the show that I witnessed with her and Rick, but I could feel her pussy contract and flood even more.

Writing them is what we are here for. To practice the trade and art of putting pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard. Drawing from out of our back brains ideas that other will find worth the time it takes to read. +But where do they come from? What's a good source? +Well life of course. Don't try to draw them from a vacuum. Pull them instead from the dark corners of you mind. The place where you hid that jelly sandwich when you were a kid. +Some people will say 'well that's easy to say'. +Okay. I'll give an example. In 1975 my mother was dating a guy and broke up with him when she met someone she liked better. A man that became my stepfather till I was 12. +The man she broke up with took exception to this, got some of his friends together, and decided to run my mom's new boyfriend off the road and beat him up. The problem was that the night they tried this on my Mom's car wasn't running right. Something with the brakes if I remember. +So my Mom and me were in his car and he was in hers. The old boyfriend ran my Mom and me off the road into a ditch. I still remember getting thrown into the dashboard when he rammed the back of the car I was in with his car! It was before the days of baby seat. I was only four years old at the time. +My step dad, to be, skidded to a stop jumped out the car and ran back to check on us. That's when Mom's old boy friend jumped him. +My mom grabbed me up, ran to her car, and drove back home like mad. She ran inside told my grand father what was happening and off he and my two uncles went then to stop the fight. +The story that came back to me was that my grandfather stepped out his truck and unloaded a 357 into the trunk of their car! +So what does this have to do with stories? I've just given you one of the main scenes from my story ""It's complicated part 2"" I need a confrontation between the main character and her old boy friend and it was right there in my memories just perfect for the story. +Then you have the man that she married and latter divorced when I was 12. He has a younger sister that I fell in love with but never did anything about. Well what if I had? That what I wrote about in the first part of that story series. +Two little moments of my own past and boom, Two of my very highest scored stories. +So your own memories are a good source. +What's another? +Look inside yourself and find the things that you are passionate about. They make for great plot bunnies if you feed them enough carrots and lettuce. +I feel very strongly about the homeless, I love the sound of a cello and I think chubby women are sexy as hell. That almost the whole plot for the story ""Heart strings."" That and a coffee commercial was the inspiration. +I love the tall sailing ships of the past and the modern ones as well. The women of the south pacific have an exotic dark beauty and innocence to them that I find sexy. The story I wrote called 'Aurora.' is nothing more or less than those two things put into a story with a very simple main character. +Okay well let's say you have lived under a rock for your whole life, don't have a lot of memories, and don't feel passionate about anything. I won't believe it for a moment but lets just suppose you that person. +Talk to others around you. I promise someone's done something that worth writing a story about that you know. You might, given that we write erotica, not tell them the character is them...maybe you might not want then to read it at all. +A guy I work with got thrown out his house by his girl friend. Yea I wrote that right. His girlfriend threw him out his own house! He ended up sleeping by a 55 gallon drum with a fire burning in it that night to keep warm. The people in the neighborhood gather there to play dominoes and cards, drink and swap bullshit stories all night long so he was safe enough. +Now I haven't made a story from that yet but I can hear it screaming Write me! +Also it may be a bit of a strange conversation but talk to someone of the older generations about their sex life when they were your age, or younger. They can give you an earful that will fill pages of Lit story space. Theirs was the sexual revolution generation, the pre-hippie days of leather coats and making out in the back of cars. The, I'm home from the war with something soap and water wont wash off what do I do now type stories. +The best things you can write about are also the worst things. Don't go looking for sunshine and flowers. How about a story set in the Jewish ghetto of Warsaw Poland in the time of the German occupation. Maybe brother/sister incest story? Wow talk about a powerful story you could write there. Beats the hell out of trapped in a snowed in cabin with your sister. Yet it's almost the same story. Family not there, scared, dangerous outside, needing comfort. +Same story different setting, much more powerful read. +We have a tendency to repeat as writers what got us acclaim before. There is nothing wrong with that. Even the big named writers do the same kind of thing. They write what sells. Well we're not getting paid here but we write what gets us votes. +You can't be fired! +Try something new. Maybe not every story you write has to be off the wall different from what you do as your norms but give it a try. Find a topic that you know noting about. Do a bit of research; dig up a moment from your own past or someone elses. Add a bit of passion about what ever gets your heart pumping. Throw all this together with a hot sex scene, or two or four and who knows. You might just have a story that's interesting to the person that doesn't have their dick in their hand when they're reading. +If your favorite category is incest and you write mother son stories mostly...well it's not that much of a stretch to write a mature story. If you can do a mature with some feeling in it above the waistline that's a romance. Maybe instead of son/ mom try mother/ daughter. Then older woman, younger woman mature. Then your drop a few years and your writing lesbian lovers. +Now was that such a stretch? Sure your not wring about a cross-dressing gay black guy getting used without his consent while his wife watches and it's being filmed by a famous movie star but it's a start. +Lord if that wouldn't be a story there. Lol. +You're a self-employed writer and not making a dime here with your stories. You're giving them away for free. That's fine. Some of the best writer didn't get rich. You just have to remember something. There is no Complaints Department except to yourself +I can't find my Muse? +Did you leave it in your other pants? +I've got writer's block! +Try prune juice. Maybe the time on the toilet thinking will help you get some ideas. If nothing else the lessening of pressure on your brain might help! +Get angry! Get mad as hell about something. Write about it. The Westwood Baptist church pisses me off! I want to write a non-consent style celebrity story where Fred Phelps gets gang banged by a gay motorcycle club while protesting a military funeral. +Find what gets you hot under the collar and write about it. You will never have a better source of story fodder than that. Yea you may make some people not like you but are you being paid to be liked? Hell you're not even being paid! +Well if your not being paid why are you doing it? To write better? To entertain? To please your fans? To have fun? +Well of course it's all of those and many more. So right now the only person that can tell you what to write is you, (and an Anon that doesn't like what your doing anyway) Change it up. Push your comfort zone to the edge then jump. What's the worst you can have happen? You have a story in your list that has a bad score? You never know it could turn out to be your biggest hit! +And don't just look for stories ideas in what you like. +In you normal day to day life your, lets say, a Lesbian. The idea of writing a story with a guy girl scene turns your stomach a bit. Okay. +How about a Loving Wives story where the wife is cheating on her husband with another woman? You would see the flames from that one in space! +Gay man writing a straight story? Do it from the girl's point of view. You have an inside track on what it's like to give a man oral sex. I have to wrap my head around a lamp post to try to figure that one out and you know what it's like from your own sex life. You know what attracts you to a man, a woman probably feel very similar feelings. Use that knowledge to make you stories better. You also know probably more about anal sex than most straight writers can imagine. +There will always be those story ideas that someone wont like. There will be the ones that get you commented out of one category and into another. Well okay, that's fine. You're not running for election. They can't stop you from writing a single word let alone a hundred stories. Have a good time. Piss someone off if that's your thrill. +Hone your skills as a writer. Keep an idea's book in your pocket with a little pencil stub. Jot down the ideas when they come. Anything at all. See a TV commercial use that. A bill board on the side of the road.(don't do it while driving) A plot from a bit of someone elses conversation that made you think, what if. +Still no ideas? Okay well lets look into the past. +History is a million stories that you can take bit and pieces from to your hearts content. Hell maybe not even a bad source for a celebrities story. A little bit of fact some of the greatest painters used prostitutes as models for nude paintings. I can smell more than oil paints there. +The only, if you want to call it that, obstacle to that type of story is the amount of research you have to do to make it accurate. +Or do you? Take the idea and make it modern. A struggling painter hires a hooker for the night to model for him. He's a virgin who's never seen a woman naked. She offers to help relieve some of his nervous tension. Why not he's already paid her. +You can find some good ideas even by looking through the story log here on Lit. Just taking an idea from a writer isn't plagiarism. Hell a famous writer once said there are no new stories just retelling of old ones. Need an idea for cross-dressing? Read you about ten or twenty of the stories on here. A strange way of spending an afternoon admittedly but you couldn't help but find your story idea in there somewhere. +Finally the closest source for ideas you would find would be the sites own Story Ideas forum. There are people on there begging someone to write this or that type of story. +Using the same idea again and again may give you more of a following. They will know that they can read just the type of story they like in everyone of your works. You will have a large group singing your praises. But will you be improving your ability as a write? A little maybe. But not to the extent that you could be. +So chase that white rabbit down the rabbit hole. See just how far down it goes.

As well as a healthy dose of plot, setting, and premise, the entire story almost always hinges upon the actions of the characters. Unfortunately for many budding authors, characters are not always the most cooperative beings in existence, as we all very well know. We're not mad, it's just those characters being the stubborn little bitches that they are! But for your sake, here is an article on how to get your characters and keep them in line. +Step one: Write a story! Sure, you might have characters wandering around in your head, but what good is keeping them in line if you don't have any reason to be controlling them and their urges. If they're just lounging around in the depths of your mind and drinking beer while you're doing absolutely nothing, there's no point in getting them to cooperate. They're just extensions of your imagination, as much as you may sometimes feel otherwise. Once you've gotten started on the story, that's where the real trouble begins, anyway. There's this thing called a plot and often times, the cast doesn't want to cooperate with the devious wiles of a world gone mad... at least, not the way you want them to. +So get writing. Whether or not you're an outliner, you're going to find that you require at least some notion of the direction of the plot, or your story will epically crash and burn. Generally once you're a few chapters in and the story's hinging on a critical moment, then you're going to find the problems begin. Joe doesn't want to fuck Cindy, because he's decided he's gay and damned if he's going anywhere near that women. And also, he crossdresses. And his father is trying to fuck Cindy as well, but since his father traveled forward in time he is younger and hotter than Joe. +Cindy isn't interested, and she's decided to take up a career in knitting, never mind that it's never going to support her and her illegitimate daughter. And that daughter of hers? She's a whore... who's trying to... take over... the universe? What? Really? And Deva was supposed to be evil! +Now that your story is in a nice, neat tangle, nowhere near the outline you'd initially created... now you need to get them back on track. +Step two: Find out the weaknesses of your characters. What makes them tick? Addictions? Love? Family? If you didn't start your story knowing these things, get busy. Make a list of all of the myriad of things you can use to get into their minds in revenge. If they're going to kick around in your head while trying to do things you really don't want them doing, you need blackmail, and that requires a decent amount of knowledge of the character you're trying to control. +Find out what their motives are, who they love, and what they want most in life. Find out who they hate, find out who their nemesis is, find out whether their grandmother is dying of cancer. +Then destroy them. +Step three: Pile up a soul-crushing load of misery upon your character. If they're not going to cooperate with the plot, the least you can do is make their lives absolute and utter hell. Kill their loved ones. Have the mafia show up and take their children hostage. Inflict them with erectile dysfunction and an uncontrollable aura of sexiness when they are absolutely unable to do a damn thing about it. Drop them naked in the snow on a cliff and inform them that they're not getting their smokes unless they hook up with Cindy and they do it now. +Disregard the voice in your head suggesting that at this point you may possibly be unhealthily obsessed with your characters. It's not your fault they came to life in your mind. It's your job as the writer to keep them constrained. You are the master and they're your bitches. +Make their lives absolute misery. +Step four: Once you've managed to successfully make your character's lives miserable, offer them a chance to get out of the soul-crushing pile of horrible, soul-crushing misery... if only they cooperate with you. +If this works, congratulations! Your story is now on track. +Chances are by this point, though, your characters absolutely hate you. That's okay. You have tons of creativity left. Simply shove them off of a cliff and make new ones. No one will notice if you find and replace Joe with Bob. No one but their loved ones. +Step five: But you like your characters and you don't want to destroy them. Well, whoop-de-doo. Fine, then. It's up to you to gain a love of character torment. If they're not going to cooperate but you can't make yourself end the torrid affair with figments just too real for their own damn good, the only option is to make their lives hell, and get off on it. +If you can't get back to the original story, the character torment is likely to be interesting in its own right. +Step six: Alternatively, you can simply write an outline before you start and, when your characters start coming to life on their own, you can ignore them and just keep writing. This is the best way to keep a story on the initial train track, but it does prevent interesting evolution as your characters bring themselves to life and introduce you to their history, present, and future. +A little bit of indulgence in un-outlined writing may introduce new lines to your story you never imagined, and your imagination itself will carry you past writer's block... at the cost of a few mentally traumatized characters and the ever-present wonder: am I really still sane?" +910,White Wives with Black Men,PolySwingerWife,How To,2021-05-25,2021-05-25,2022-01-04 08:42:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/white-wives-with-black-men,"Why, How, and What To Do.","['Husband', 'Interracial', 'Men', 'White Wives', 'Wife']",3.49,"Do many white husbands want their wives to have sex with black men? The answer to that questions is often an overwhelming Yes. Not all couples get into interracial, but many do. I personally do not care if the men I have sex with are black or white, Mexican or any other race. Many cuckold husbands prefer their wives to only have sex with black men. My husband has that preference as well, but he also likes seeing me have sex with well-hung white men. +My husband says that the reason he likes to see me have sex with black men is that he grew up in a predominantly black area and grew up watching black men having sex with white women. A cuckold husband that we know told me the reason he prefers his wife to have sex with black men is that black men are usually bigger cocked and can last longer than many white men. +Every husband is going to have his own reason for wanting his wife to have sex with black men. In our case, we have found that more often black men do not mind having sex with a white woman in groups. Because I enjoy being gang banged, this works for us. +Many husbands want their wives to have sex for their own sexual pleasure, but the opposite is true. Many men love their wives so much that they want their wives to have the best sex possible. Many cuckold husbands see black men as being superior, sexually, because more often than not black men are in better physical condition and often have very large cocks. Not all black men are extremely well endowed, but from my experience, I have found that many are. +If you are like most women, you see a very large cock as scary. And with good reason. That is not to say that there aren't women out there who prefer larger cocks. Many women do. That is something that is going to be as unique as you are. And the longer you are a HotWife, the more you will want larger cocked men. Many cuckold men see a larger cock as being able to sexually please a woman more. And sometimes that is true, as long as the man who owns this larger cock knows how to use it. +I have had sex with innumerable black men. Some of them have left me sore for days afterward. Because many black men do have amazing stamina, their size, if you are not used to it, can leave you sore, but it is a good soreness because it pleased your husband to see you have sex with a man who had such a big cock. +The good thing about being a Hotwife is that your husband is going to want you to have sex with others, often, and you are going to meet men who are very well sized. I can tell you that the more often you have sex with larger cocked men, the more your body will become accustomed to the larger size. This can take some time, though. +I am not saying that all white men want their wives to have sex with black men, but a good number of them do. Interracial porn is one of the most popular porn types on the Internet. Few men want to watch porn where the women are having sex with small cocked men. Porn stars have large cocks because men like to see women have sex with men who have large cocks. +Some men want their wives to experience the best sex possible. They want the other men to please their wives in ways that they never can. Look at it this way, if your husband is 5"" long and 3"" around when he is erect, a man who is 9"" long and 7"" around is going to go places in you that your husband never will. And your husband wants you and the men you have sex with to experience that. +Many men want to see their wife's vagina stretched as far as it will stretch and filled as full as it can be. I admit that feeling filled is a good feeling, but it does take time to be able to accommodate a much larger cock. You have to be worked up and well lubricated. +A lot of men get too excited and want to get right to the action as soon as they have their cock out of their pants. That is why having lubrication is important. Many times you will want a man to work you up and really get you in the mood, but that is not always going to happen. You need to understand men. They have a chance to get laid and they want to get to it as soon as they can. You may not always have the opportunity to get naturally lubed up. So, always have lube on hand, just in case." +911,Who Wants To Be A Slave?,panthers babe,How To,2004-10-15,2004-10-15,2022-01-04 08:42:08,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/who-wants-to-be-a-slave,What a sub NEEDS to be.,"['Bitch Dog', 'Kitten Slut', 'Make Sense', 'Master Asked', 'Master Slave', 'Master Tells', 'Power Influence', 'Safe Word', 'Slave Master', 'Stop Point']",3.98,"As with all this sluts submissions while she checked the box acknowledging that story belonged to her she readily accepts the fact that she owns nothing and the story, her mind, and her body are owned by Master Panther. +Recently this slut has seen a lot of articles that appear to her and her Master to inappropriately be classified as a Master/slave relationship. This has caused this slave personal sadness when she has been requested to help someone become something she is not. While this slut has never been happier than this cunt is in her current relationship, this slut realizes this lifestyle is not very everyone. +The chances of being hurt or hurting someone else are lessened tremendously if both members of the pair are on the same page. Also it is much easier on a third party being brought into the mix when H/she knows where the people are coming from. Because this slut knows she is a true slave when Master Panther brought in Sir P to help with the training we all were aware of our positions and the relationship has worked out. When Kitten's ""Master"" asked Panther's slut to help train his ""slave"" neither of them were actually at that point in their relationship and therefore both Kitten and this slut were hurt by the misunderstandings that ensued. In order to help keep this from happening to others, Master has asked that this slut share the letter she wrote to kitten asking her to clarify where she was. Maybe this letter can help others decide if they or their partners are role players, subs, or slaves. Knowledge is the most important tool towards acceptance. +Dearest Kitten, Please do not take what this slut is going to say as an insult. It is not meant that way at all. This cunt is speaking totally as both an educator and a slave. this slut feels that you are at a point where you need to make some very important and difficult decisions. Up to this point you have played at being submissive or in you words you have had scenes. This is fine and good and many couples decide they do not want to go any farther than that. +If that works for them this slut says go for it. No one, Master, slave Dom, sub should feel forced into a situation where they are not comfortable. You and your Dom need to make that decision yourselves with no interference. If you decide to stop at this point this slut doesn't know how this cunt can be of help to you, because she doesn't understand the concept of playing at submission it comes so naturally to me but this slut is willing to help in any way she can . This is the point your relationship is at now and if that's as far as you both want to go that is fine but if you want to go further, no want is not the right word, most of us did not WANT to become subs we needed to be in spite of ourselves. If you need to be a sub then you must obey and follow the rules the two of you have decided on. Is this part time or full time? Is anything off limits? what is the safe word? The important difference in a sub and a slave is that a sub does participate in deciding the direction her submission will take. At this point you start to learn that unless an order is in direct violation of one of the rules or you use your safe word immediately you must submit. the only way you can now say I can't is if you use your safe word. +The majority of people who are into D/s relationships stop at this point but there are a few of us who go one step farther and enter a Master/slave relationship this cunt looked up the definition of slavery in the dictionary and it read A person who is held in bondage to another; one who is wholly subject to the will of another; one who is held as a chattel; one who has no freedom of action, but whose person and services are wholly under the control of another. +I went a step further and looked up bondage and chattel, they read +Definition of bondage . A state of subjection to a force, power, or influence +Definition of chattel 1. Any tangible movable property (furniture or domestic animals or a car, etc.); +If you put that all together you get a very clear idea of what you are committing yourself to when you accept your collar +A person who is held in . A state of subjection by force, power, or influence to another, wholly subject to the will of another; one who is held as a tangible movable property (furniture or domestic animals or a car, etc.); one who has no freedom of action, but whose person and services are wholly under the control of another +This slut thinks this is a very clear definition of what exactly you are getting yourself into. Lets look at it from the point of view of a piece of chattel, say a domestic animal or more simply a bitch dog. Would it make any sense for a dog to say I can't come when you call me? of course not a dog can or can not do only what her Master tells her. Likewise a slave can do or not do only what her Master tells her. As for the use of a safe word would it make any sense for a dog to be told if you scratch your nose you will not have to do as I command? of course not the Master knows better than the dog what is good for it. It also makes no sense for a slave to use a safe word the Master knows better then the cunt what is better for her. +Is this whore saying you will lose all your spirit? Absolutely not! When a Master comes home after a day at work the dog is eager to see him and excited about being able to please him and you will be the same. Should you hide your feelings from your Master? No he needs to know exactly what you are feeling so he can better train and use you. Sometimes Master will do something like take the dog for a walk simply because Master needs exercise and it has nothing to do with the dog. Likewise sometimes Master will take and use you just to serve his needs. Many times however Master is trying to do what is right for his bitches. If his bitch dog needs discipline and Master tosses her out in the back yard for punishment only to find she likes being outside what has he accomplished accept for rewarding negative behavior. If he feels the dog deserves a reward and gives her a piece of cheese only to find out she doesn't like cheese has she really been rewarded. +With his human bitch if she is not totally honest with her feelings Master will not know what to use for punishment and what to use for rewards and training will be much more difficult. In both cases the canine bitch and the human one, when she is well trained Master and her can live together happily. This is what it means to me to be a slave. +* * * * * + _Please for your sake, your Master's sake and the sake of any other Masters, Doms, subs, or slaves you come in contact with figure out where you want to be in this pecking order,_ +Write me back with your feelings about what I've written immediately after you've read it AND ALSO after you have talked to your Dom I am very interested in what both of you have to say about this +Panther's slave" +912,Why I Won't Read Your Story,Sailor_Witch,How To,2016-08-05,2016-08-05,2022-01-04 08:42:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/why-i-wont-read-your-story,How to get me to not read your story. A letter to authors.,"['Advice', 'Author', 'Better Writing', 'Guide', 'How Not To', 'How To']",,"Dear Literotica authors, +Thank you for writing and sharing your hard work. I think too few people realize what it takes to develop a story and bring it to a point that it is ready for the reading audience. I have read many, many fine stories here on Literotica and I am amazed that there are so many talented people out there who are willing to share their hard work with us for free. +I am writing to tell you how to get me to not read your story. I hope you'll read my words in the spirit that they are offered. That is the spirit of helpfulness. It is not my intention to be critical or unkind. +(Now, after writing this, I have looked back over this letter and found its tone to be somewhat negative sounding. Please believe me when I say that that was not my intention.) +I am not a writer and I do not carry a degree in English journalism or any other such credential that might increase the credibility of what I am going to say. I am simply going to give you my perspective as a reader. If you don't agree with my words, please simply ignore them. Better yet, do what I would do and just stop reading this. That having been said, I hope you will read this and that you find at least some part of it helpful. +I'd like to discuss the categorization of your story, the title and description, the length of the story and the believability of what you write. As I compose this I will add other thoughts as they occur to me. Some of the numbers I will use in talking to you are purposely exaggerated in order to better illustrate the point +Categorization. As a reader, when I go looking for a story to read I first select the category. If your story is a hot story of group sex, I may not find it if it's in the incest category due to having a brother-sister scene during the drunken college party. I realize that some stories span several categories and that probably presents the author a dilemma regarding which category to select when submitting the story. Perhaps Literotica will consider a special category for these stories that ""bleed"" across several categories. +The length of your story. This is a hard one. Each reader has their own taste and each author has their own style. Some like the short stroker stories while others prefer the slower buildup of a long story. Then there is the middle ground where it isn't really a stroker, but it isn't really long either. I like to think that most stories fit this model. Maybe that is because those are the type of stories that I like. (3-7 pages is optimal for my taste) Personally, I never look at the novels and novellas category. I don't want to read a 700 page story even if it has plenty of hot sex interspersed throughout it. On the opposite side of that coin are the one page stories. They usually leave me feeling cheated and left hanging. It's almost like when your DVD movie has an error in the middle and won't continue playing. Now I'm not saying that your story (either short or long) doesn't have merit. If I don't read them, I'm sure that others will. +Speaking of length, (and this is a pet peeve of mine) many authors break their stories into parts and submit them as separate stories. I have no problem with this. I would like to remind you though to think of it like a series of movies. (Sequels and prequels) Nobody is interested in watching the movie ""Rocky 71, the great, great grandson of Rocky has a fight in the schoolyard."" Likewise, if you are writing chapter 54 of your story, give it a rest already! +Television series are another good example. You know the ones I'm talking about. I'm thinking of the shows like ""House of Cards"" where each episode builds on the previous ones. These show series' usually do fairly well for the first two seasons and marginally well the third season. By the fourth season, the script writers are stretching a bit and the whole story/series suffers. It's the same with your chapter stories on Literotica. Let one story end and then start a new one. Don't try to milk twenty chapters out of a five chapter story. That just gets too far from the origins of the story and frankly, it's boring. +If you really feel a need to write that many chapters, please put them in the novels and novellas category. When I look at the list of stories and see a chapter number greater than six, it's pretty unlikely that I'll give it a first glance and nearly impossible that I'm going to give it a second. Remember the movies thing? How anxious would you be to go see the sixth movie in a series? I'm betting it would have to be an exceptionally well written, acted and directed movie along with the five that came before it. Few movies measure up to that standard. Does your story? Yes, I'll admit that I have read some seriously long sets of chapter stories, but that is the exception rather than the rule. +Now let me talk a bit about the title and description of your story. I see on the site that Literotica staff may sometimes change the title of your submission. I have no idea how often this actually happens. But for the purpose of this letter, let's assume that you have the control. Your title is the first hook. If I see an interesting title, I look closer to see if I want to read the story. I would remind you that a title starting with certain words causes them to be one of many in the list that all start the same. +For example, a story title that starts with ""A' or ""The"" or ""One"" will be one of several dozen on the page listing stories that one can read. I'm sure that you can find other words that would be good to avoid having as the first word of your title as well. When I get to these sections in the list, (three pages of titles starting with the word ""The"") I just skip right over them. Surely I must miss some good stories that way, but it is what I do and I suspect that I'm not alone in doing that. +Your description (or sub-title if you prefer) is the real hook though. This is what usually sways my decision to read or not to read a given story. Think hard about what you write for the description. As a special note for authors of multi-chapter stories, if your description is the exact same for each and every chapter of the story, it's likely that I'll skip the series entirely. +Believability. If you are going to make your characters be endowed with gigantic proportions and equipment, please let us know in the introduction. Of course that isn't necessary in categories such as sci-fi and non human, but for less abstract categories, please at least try to make it somewhat believable. Your story about the guy who has sex with his 80 year old granny may be packed with hot action, but if you introduce granny as having 54HH tits and the grandson as having a 36 inch cock, I'm going to stop reading right there. I am not asking you to not give your characters enticing and exciting equipment, just exercise a bit of good common sense, please. +In addition, please try to make your story line somewhat believable too. (Except in certain categories, of course) If the premise of your story is that an 18 year old guy falls off his bicycle and gets rewarded by getting to screw the First Lady of the United States in front of the President and both houses of congress with national TV coverage as well...Well, I certainly hope you write that as a dream sequence. If not, I won't be reading your story. +PLEASE, don't bore me to death on the first page of your story. If you do, I'll quit reading it. Introducing your characters is a necessary thing for any story. Please though, do not write eight paragraphs describing each character unless it is ABSOLUTELY critical to your story. A short paragraph on each will suffice. If there are more that three or four characters, you should introduce the additional ones at the point where they first enter the story. +How many times have you heard someone say that they tried to read a book but couldn't get past the first chapter or two? Get the story moving so that you get and keep your readers interested. The reader's imagination will fill in most of the blanks anyway. +I like it when the author places a short to medium length note at the top of the story introducing the story. It makes me feel that I have a certain connection with the author as silly as that may sound. I am more likely to read through and accept some of the things that I have talked about if the author has done this. For example, you can be a bit wordy in introducing your characters and I'll likely keep reading. +Thank you for taking time to read this and consider my opinion. That is what these things are, after all. They are simply my opinion. Nonetheless, I hope that you found something helpful and received it in the pleasant helping spirit that it was offered. +Above all, thank you for writing. I hope you enjoy the writing as much as I enjoy the reading!" +913,Why Men Cheat,SteelAndSilk,How To,2011-04-26,2011-04-26,2022-01-04 08:42:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/why-men-cheat,This particular article is from the perspective of a man.,['Cheating Men'],4.53,"This particular article is from the perspective of a man. Unless otherwise specified, when I refer to men, I mean men who have a wife or girlfriend. This article also refers to the MAJORITY of men. There are, of course, exceptions. If there is a woman who would like to write a companion article, I would gladly welcome that. To make myself perfectly clear, I am not condoning cheating. Make no bones about it, it is wrong. Whether you come from a moral perspective or not, you know it's wrong. The most hardcore atheist gets pissed when he finds his wife or girlfriend in bed with another man, so we all know it's wrong. +That being said, there are actual, real reasons why a man cheats, and it might not be because he's a narcissistic douchebag. Granted, there are those men who go out and fuck a lot of women while being in a relationship because they feel they deserve it, but I believe you'd find the percentages shockingly low. Contrarily, you might find a man that would never cheat no matter how much he is hurting. He may be seen as more noble, but he lives in misery. +Now, many women have been cheated on, and most of them feel that there is no reasonable cause for a man to cheat, that cheating is the paramount of wrong, and the blame for cheating is solely on the man. Now, is the man to blame for the action of going and having sex with another woman? Without doubt. But, I believe you would rarely find a case of a man just going out and picking up a woman to fuck. Affairs start long before actual sex takes place. +It starts in the home, in the bed, and in the heart. Let's get something out of the way right now, shall we? A man needs sex, period. Women need sex too, naturally, but men are more wired to want and in fact need it. It is not an ""extra"" to relationships, it is a burning, aching need. To him, being denied sex is being disrespected in the deepest sense, in fact, the only thing worse would be catching his wife in his own bed with another man. Get that straight. +Suppose a man is not getting his needs met at home. His wife is not necessarily being cruel or mean spirited about it, nor is she seeing someone else but all the same, it's not happening. Now, he goes to the office. Maybe the secretary or a co-worker is an attractive young woman. She looks up to him, respects him, and admires him, initially strictly from a professional viewpoint. He goes to work, maybe after a few weeks or a month of a dry spell, maybe longer. The young lady asks him how he is doing, how the family is. Sure, initially he lies like most people do. ""Everthing is fine, doing great."" But how long can that last? Something will eventually betray him, a look, the tone of his voice, something. She will pick up on it. She, being a caring friend, puts her hand on his hand, or shoulder. Maybe even gives him a hug or a friendly kiss on the cheek. It will be ok, she comforts him, things will get better. But it doesn't. She sees this. Her compassion turns to a caring affection. She asks him out to a drink, or coffee, or lunch. This might happen a few times. Or not, but either way, the affair is well under way. It is only a matter of time before his armor cracks and he pours out his heart to her. Filled with sympathy, and a lack of understanding on how a wife could treat her husband this way, she tenderly kisses him. At this point, passion takes over, they find a room in a hotel, and the affair is in full swing. +Take note here. Where did the affair start? Did he walk into the office, look the woman up and down, and say, ""Sure, my married life is great, but fuck it all, strip down and let's go at it."" No, not even close. It started at home, where his needs were not being met. A man isn't going to have an affair because he wants to find a woman who will suck his cock when his own wife won't, not if she's meeting his needs. It doesn't even have as much to do with a release. Jacking off would take care of that. Find me a halfway normal guy who wants to jack off instead of having sex. You won't. Taking care of your man's needs is exactly that: taking care of him. Your respect for him by taking care of him will keep him from straying. Again, this may not be a hard and fast, but you will find this to be a typical rule. +As a final note to the ladies, please understand something. Your man needs you physically as you need him emotionally. It is not a lesser or different need. It is exactly the same as you needing him to talk to you or tell you he loves you. Would you like him to go several days without speaking to you? You would be incredibly hurt and likely furious. What if he's not in the mood, or doesn't feel like it, or has a headache? You would never accept that. Maybe for a day, but no more, if that even. Again, I reiterate this because it is so important to understand, what emotional needs are to you, physical needs are to him. +Hopefully, this was of some use to someone. I sincerely hope this might help someone before the affair is underway. Take care of each other needs, and you will live a happy life." +914,Why Not Wax?,pierced_gurl,How To,2005-02-04,2005-02-04,2022-01-04 08:42:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/why-not-wax,"A ""not-as-painful-as-it-sounds"" alternative to shaving.","['Bare Pussy', 'Bikini Wax', 'Hair', 'Made Mistake', 'Pussy Lips', 'Stray Hairs', 'Strip Hair', 'Wax', 'Women Hair']",4.49,"For those ladies (and guys) who have tried shaving some or all of the hair from their hot spots and were less than satisfied with the results, I may just have the answer! For many of us, there is nothing more erotic than the look and feel of a soft, bare pussy...and some girls enjoy when their men are completely hair-free as well. Personally, I like a man to have some hair down there, but not an unruly mass of tangles...trim it up, guys! As for me, I love the way my pussy looks when it is completely bare, but I have had absolutely disastrous experiences with shaving. I tried all of the tips for shaving...using brand new razors, soaking in the tub, using thick creme conditioner, etc. No matter what I did, I still ended up with painfully swollen follicles/pores, itchy red bumps, and downright uncomfortable pain for days. No thank you! Then I decided to try what most salons call a ""full-off"" bikini wax (not to be confused with a ""Brazilian,"" which I will discuss briefly later on). Yes, I know, most of you are cringing at the mere thought of some stranger applying hot wax to your most sensitive spots and then yanking all of your hair out at the roots...but I promise, it's not that bad! And trust me, you will be SO GLAD when you see the results. +First of all, being self-conscious is an obstacle you will just have to get over, because it's pretty damn hard to do it yourself. And I wouldn't let anyone other than a professional do it, either...no matter how confident your partner may be, you just can't risk it. A trained professional can get the whole job done in about 15-20 minutes, and the results will look much nicer (and you won't feel the urge to punch them in the face when they are done, which cannot necessarily be said for a partner who botches your at-home wax job!). +A couple of distinctions should be made between the types of waxes that you can have done. First, a run-of-the-mill bikini wax leaves some hair behind, the most common being the ""landing strip"" (a strip of hair about an inch long, starting at your natural hair line and extending down toward your pussy lips). Some professionals can even shape the hair that is left into shapes or patterns (triangles, hearts, downward-pointing arrows, etc.) +A ""Brazilian"" bikini wax is when all of the hair comes off...and I do mean ALL. Once the front is bare, you flip over and the crack of your ass is waxed too. Most women don't have much hair in that area anyway, but they feel more comfortable knowing there aren't any strays. Personally, I don't want the wax going anywhere near my ass...and if my guy doesn't like that, then maybe he should leave his hipocracy at the door and go with me to have HIS ass waxed! +What I have my waxer do is considered a ""full-off"" bikini wax. That means all of the hair is waxed from the pubic area and the lips, all the way down to where the lips end. No flipping over for the backside with this one. +So, once you decide what type of wax you want and you find a reputable salon to do the job, be sure that your hair is no longer than about a quarter of an inch. If it is longer, you'll want to trim it a little so that it does not get tangled when the wax is applied. And be condsiderate of your waxer...make sure you shower a couple of hours before you go. But don't use any lotion in the area, or the wax won't adhere properly. You may also want to take a couple of Tylenol or other pain reliever about an hour beforehand. This will help dull the sensation when the hair is pulled from the roots. Another very important point for the ladies: DO NOT make a waxing appointment just before or during your period. You are much more sensitive at that time, and it hurts like HELL. (Trust me, I made that mistake only once!) +Wear comfortable clothes to your appointment; nothing that will chafe the area afterwards. I normally wear a skirt or loose shorts and no panties...this way my skin is not irritated by any clothing rubbing in the area when I am done. When you arrive, you might want to use the restroom quickly, to make sure you are nice and refreshed. When you meet your waxer, don't feel weird about it. Your pussy is not the first, nor the last, that she will see in her lifetime. If you feel uncomfortable or have any questions, don't hold back. You need to let her know this is your first time, and she can help you ease into it. +Once you have stripped from the waist down, your waxer will most likely have you lay on your back with one leg straight and one bent with your knee resting on the table. She will then apply the wax with a wooden applicator. The wax should be comfortably warm, NOT hot. If it feels too hot to you, speak up! I have a pretty high threshold for pain in that area (just look at my username and guess where my piercing is...), and I once made the mistake of not saying anything when the wax was warmer than usual. I received three very nasty burns on my pussy lips...NOT a good time. +After the wax is applied, a cloth strip is placed on top and pressure is applied for a couple of seconds to adhere the strip to the wax. Here's where most people tense up and get ready for the pain...which is the worst thing you could do. Yes, she is going to yank the strip and all of the hair is going to come out at the roots, but if you tense up, it is going to hurt much worse than it will if you relax. I recommend concentrating on taking slow, deep, controlled breaths so that you are not thinking about when the strip is going to be ripped off. Do NOT hold your breath! I'll be honest...it does hurt a bit, but not nearly as much as I thought it would the first time. It's like when you pull a band-aid off your arm...very quick and over with. On a scale of 1-10, I would put it at a 4 or 5. Your waxer will continue this process until all of the hair is removed on one side (or as much as you ask for) and then she'll have you switch legs so she can do the other side. She will then use tweezers to pluck out any stray hairs that the wax may have missed. +When you are all done, the waxer may apply talcum powder, lotion, or some other ointment to soothe and calm the skin. I have also had my waxer use a product called ""Tend Skin,"" which helps keep the hair follicles clear so that you do not get ingrown hairs. Beware, this stuff BURNS and it hurts worse than the waxing does. However, it works wonders in keeping away red bumps and ingrown hairs, so I think it's worth it. You can buy the stuff and apply it every day for about a week to keep the follicles clear for the hair that is going to start coming back in. +One thing you might want to consider also: don't plan on having sex or playing in that area at all for the rest of the day. It's just too sensitive, and you can actually cause red bumps and irritation if you mess with it too much. Just relax, you and your partner will have plenty of time to enjoy your bare little pussy! +Now, here's the best part about getting waxed. It's amazingly soft and smooth, and it stays that way for two or three weeks...even longer if you use a hair- inhibiting lotion like Jergens! Keep in mind, though, that your hair grows at all different rates, so you may see some stubble coming in after a few days. These are hairs that were below the surface when you got waxed, and you can just use tweezers to pluck them out. Your hair will eventually all get on the same schedule, and you won't have that issue. +Another bonus: with continued waxing, your hair starts growing in much softer and thinner, making each waxing less painful. In addition, fewer hairs will grow back in, and that's always a plus. My waxer has told me stories of women whose hair has stopped growing back altogether, and they only come in every few MONTHS to have touch-ups done. The theory is that your hair follicles will eventually get ""tired"" of having the hair ripped out all the time, and they will simply stop producing more hair. Whatever you do, DO NOT shave in between waxings! Your hair will go back to that thick, coarse texture and it will hurt every time you get waxed. +So, that's about it. The result is a sexy-as-hell look that you and your partner will love. You'll both love to touch, stroke, and maybe even lightly slap it until you're ready for some more steamy action. Not only that, but who wouldn't want to go down for hours on a pussy with no stray hairs getting in the way. In terms of cleanliness and taste, you just can't beat it.

She is lying there now, face down on a fully extended lawn chair, with her stringy top removed, sun tan lotion glistening on her bare back. The bottom piece of her swimming suit -- made up of fabric that is no larger than the size of her palm - does little to conceal her round and sexy ass. The ass crack is inviting. Back home from college for her summer vacation, Brittney is enjoying her time away from studying and the crazy dorm life. +She lay there yesterday too, while her middle-aged neighbor Tom peeped through the gap between the slats of the wooden fence that separates their backyards. He couldn't control the arousal in his shorts. Standing in his own backyard, by the fence, with one eye looking through the inch-wide hole, he rubbed his hard-on and imagined how it would feel to hump her from behind, to guide his cock down her ass cleavage, to explore her tight vaginal opening, also to penetrate her anally. +Brittney knew Tom was watching. From the corner of her eye, she saw movement behind the bushes, which partially cover the opening in the fence. She smiled to herself mischievously. +She is somewhat an exhibitionist and takes pride in being the object of her neighbor's adoration. Today, she is again enjoying the soothing rays on her semi naked body. She has lain there for half an hour already. She turns over, with her heavy boobs facing the sky. They jiggle from side to side when she moves. She looks down, and proudly admires her own tits. Careful to protect herself from sunburn, she is applying a generous amount of sun tan lotion on her silky smooth skin. Having a private back porch affords her the opportunity to get a full body tan. +One of her kinky diversions is masturbating naked, under the sun. She squeezes the lotion bottle and squirts the milky white liquid into her left palm. She tilts her hand sideways, letting the lotion roll from one side to another. This looks so erotic to her, for no reason. Then she lays down the bottle to the right of her lawn chair. Yesterday, she absentmindedly laid the bottle on her left, and she had a hard time finding it. How silly she was. +Cupping her right hand, she lets some of the lotion drips from her left palm into it. Then she brings both hands to the spot just above her tummy, right under her breasts. She starts caressing the base of her roundness, fingers coming close to her areola, making small circles with her fingertips. +Looking down, seeing the thick white liquid lying messily on her tits, she is turned on. The sight naturally reminds her of how her boyfriend shoots his load on her breasts. Bobby loves to tit fuck her, to lay his thick shaft between her massive boobs. +She crosses her legs, squeezing her thighs together. Yet, there is an emptiness that the squeezing cannot satisfy. The heat from the sun has warmed her up in more ways than one. She needs something, a tool, an instrument of some kind. Should she go inside to her bedroom to retrieve her vibrator? No, she doesn't want to be distracted by getting up. +Brittney has very strange rituals about masturbation. She always likes to start with some inanimate objects, like a toy, or something that innocently lies around the house. After a few minutes, she will use her hands to continue with the rubbing and touching of her own private area. Maybe around the pussy lips, maybe right on top of her clitoris, maybe deep inside her vagina. Electricity seems to be able to travel from her finger tips to her genitals, or is it the other way round? +Today, she is too lazy to get up. What can she use? +Ah! The sun tan lotion bottle, which she has laid on the tiled surface of the ground. The round bottom corners of the bottle will do the trick. +Tom, on the other side of the fence, is doing yard work, or at least he is pretending to. He enjoys taking care of his plants and the flower bed. He remembers the nice view he had yesterday -- of his sexy neighbor Brittney. He is eager to find out if she is there again today. Yesterday did she know he was watching? Was she putting on a show for him? +He has laid two inches of mulch around the rose bushes. Rose buds --- anal openings. Damn. Why do erotica writers always use that analogy? Now he is horny looking at the pink roses. +Walking up to the fence, he quietly lays down the garden shears by his feet, bends his knees and positions his head to look through the hole in the fence. The opening in the rotten wood fence, resulting from natural weather decay, is about three feet off the ground. The inch-wide peephole is usually hidden behind the bushes on his side. So he has to squeeze himself behind the vegetation to access the hole. +The plants in his neighbor's yard do little to block the excellent view of Brittney in the lawn chair for him yesterday. And he has a clear view of the lovely girl again today. She is lying there with her feet pointing towards him, her scantily covered pussy facing his direction. He imagines if she takes off the lower piece of her bikini, he will have a clear view of her pussy. Her chair is only about 20 feet away from the fence. He swears he can smell the coconut scent of the sun tan lotion. +She grabs the lotion bottle, which she has laid on the ground, and places it between her legs. In slow, circular motions, she is using it as a toy to please herself. Tom is elated. He cannot believe his good fortune. His beautiful young neighbor is masturbating and he is going to witness it. She sits up. Still with the bottle in one hand, she touches her nipples with the other, and her lips part slightly, as if she is moaning. With her sunglasses on, it is hard for Tom to tell whether Brittney is looking in his direction. Suddenly she stands up, and starts walking towards him, towards the peephole in the fence. +He is startled. Straightening himself, he stands behind the fence, next to the peephole, heart pounding. Has she seen him? Why is she walking over in this direction? +In a matter of seconds, shockingly, a finger pokes through the opening. Tom has been to many adult book stores before and he has participated in the glory hole experience as well. Why is Brittney doing this? Is she inviting him to stick his dick through that hole? Yes, ""stick his dick"" there. He likes the rhyme. +Mesmerized, driven solely by lust, he turns to the hole, unbelts his shorts and drops everything to his heels. The hole is too high for him -- he stands only five feet tall and the hole is about three feet above ground. +He gently steps on the brick edgings that he laid down last year, to give himself additional height to reach that peephole. Still not enough. Looking around, he moves some of the extra bricks that are lying around and stacks them to form a platform for him to stand on. Though the bricks form a wobbly and unsteady foothold, he doesn't care. His foot-long penis is throbbing and bobbling. Many a times he has wished to the All Mighty that he would sacrifice a few inches of his manhood to compensate for his height. Maybe six inches -- will he be happy to stand 5'6"" and have a 6"" dick? Or give up three inches? Be 5'3"" and have a 9"" dick? +The blood has travelled to his groin area. He doesn't have enough blood in his brain to do mental math. He stands on the stacked bricks, guides his salami shape thingy through the hole. Instantly he feels a soothing, licking, wet sensation along the underside of his shaft. Oh god, she must be licking his cock. Brittney the college co-ed is licking his cock. Then her tongue touches his mushroom shape crown, and then back to the underside, and she licks the upper side of his cock as well. This girl is wild. This is his wildest dream come true. No, he never imagines this to be possible. Her feathery licking motions are amazing. +""Tom! What the hell are you doing?"" shouts Mary, his wife, who comes out of the kitchen into the backyard, meat cleaver in hand, apron around her waist. +""No, nothing. I am ... ur ... just that ..."" Tom is out of ideas to make excuses. He has to come up with something fast. ""I thought, I thought Brittney's plants can use some natural ammonia so I am just peeing into her bushes."" +Damn it. ""Peeing into her bushes?"" Wrong choice of words. +""You are a habitual liar! Last year you lied about the affair with Jenna. Now you are lying about peeping and peeing into Brittney's backyard. You always lie. I will never trust a single word you say anymore. You have lied to me all these years we are married!"" she howls and breaks down in tears. +""No, for real. I am just helping her fertilize her plants naturally."" The more he lies, the more confused he is. As if it is possible, he feels that his penis is growing, both in girth and in length. And it is stuck inside the hole. He cannot withdraw it! +""Oh, Tom. Don't you have the basic decency to pull your dick back and pull up your pants while I talk to you?"" Mary is crying, wielding the cleaver above her head. +""Can you put the beaver, no, the cleaver down? You are scaring me."" +Tom feels that with his wife yelling at him, sharp knife in hand, he should be losing his erection. But no, he is going strong. And Brittney is still licking. +""You are such a disgrace, Tom! Terrible."" Mary cannot control his sobs. +And then he ejaculates. He shoots his load into Brittney's backyard through the glory hole. Oh, he cums. (Erotica writers will debate whether it is cum or come, but that is another matter.) +He still cannot withdraw his manhood from the hole. Normally he will be proud of his staying power after finishing but not today. He desperately wants to pull up his shorts to hide his dick. But Brittney seems to be continuing with her licking after he has finished. +Mary walks up to him, pointing the cleaver at his dick. ""Get back in here. Or I am going to chop it off."" +Finally after almost a minute, his dick has returned to its 12-inch pre-erect state. It is narrow enough to pull through the opening. He stands away from the glory hole, bends down to pull up his boxers and shorts, only to find the semi-flaccid penis covered in green paint. +Brittney must have been playing games on him. She hasn't licked him. She has used a brush, maybe a paint brush, to coat his penis green. +As a punishment, Mary ties Tom down on a bed of garden stones, face up, with his arms and legs stretched out, as if he were stranded on the Island of Lilliput. He lies there for he forgets how long, embarrassed, ashamed and angry. After many slow and unsuccessful attempts, he is able to move his hand to the garden shears that he has dropped earlier. They are lying inches away from him. He is glad that Mary has left them laying there. They are his life line now. +Finally, he gets a hold of them. With much twisting and flipping of his left wrist, he is able to cut the rope to free himself. +Standing up, infuriated, fuming, he walks over to the glory hole and nails a piece of two by four over it. He swears that he is never going to look over to Brittney's yard again. Definitely not this year. +////////// +Now to recap the grammar points -- +Lie (as a verb, meaning to rest in a horizontal position): +Tom lies there next to his wife. They are lying there in their bed. They lay there last night. Now they have lain there for several hours. +****** +Lay (as a verb, meaning someone puts something down on the ground): +Brittney lays a towel on the grass. +By letting her neighbor peek at her yesterday, Brittney is laying the foundation to play the paint job on him today. +Tom made a big mistake. He laid an egg. +Brittney has laid her buttocks on the edge of the pool. +Lie (as a verb, meaning to not tell the truth): +Tom lies about the reason for him to poke his penis through the hole. +He is lying as he is shooting his load. +He lied last year about other affairs. +He has always lied about illicit sex. Who hasn't? +///////// +There is another expression, the origin of which is more obscure -- GET LAID. There is good reason to believe that this usage is related to the second set of examples mentioned above. +Hope you enjoy this grammar lesson and dirty tale.

This article is designed to show my fellow writers how to reduce the stress and effort it takes to win the challenge. +There is nothing in the survivor rules that state you have to write about multiple subjects. One of the biggest challenges for survivor contestants is developing the multitude of plots required to write hundreds of stories. You can fix this by writing a series of stories with a single plotline, instead of many separate stories. Okay you can stop laughing now, I'm serious. +Here are some simple suggestions that can help you win survivor using the single story concept: +1\. Keep each story short- The minimum submission guideline for the contest and the site in general is 750 words. I know you are thinking what kind of a story can you develop in just that many words. That might be a problem if you were only writing one such story. With this concept, you will be writing hundreds of chapters. Therefore, you can develop the plot gradually over the course of those many chapters. +Besides, 750 words is not that short. There is an article written by Oggbashan about creating 50 word stories. If you can write an effective story in 50 words, just imagine the creative freedom you get from 750 words. The secret is to keep the story as close to the minimum number of words as possible without going under. +2\. Write at least one chapter in every category- There are critical bonuses for filling every category that add 60 points to your total if you fill them all. This is a necessary part of accumulating that winning score. There are 31 story categories that cover a wide range of topics. Getting chapters to flow into each other will be the biggest challenge. It's highly unlikely you will be able to flow a first time story into a BDSM or anal category. +Some of the categories are going to require some creativity, but you can't expect me to do all the work for you. The categories that might be the hardest to incorporate are How-to, Reviews & Essays, Humor & Satire and Celebrities. You can cover some of these categories by writing about the process of writing a complex series of stories. Not to mention the contest has immunities available that can help rid you of a few pesky categories. +The only exception to the 750 word rule is the Novels category. It requires a minimum story length of 7500 words. With those word limits in mind, it will take a minimum of 30,000 words to create an entry in each category. Instead of getting credit for a few short stories, all those words can gain you 156 points, a very good start on your way to victory. +3\. Keep your characters limited- With fewer characters to worry about, you spend less time developing them. My ideal plan is to have only four total characters. This may seem ridiculous as you wonder how you could possibly write hundreds of stories with only four characters. This allows you to make your characters more fluid in the way they develop. They will have to be due to the requirement to fill all the categories. Your characters will have to take on multiple roles and experience a wide variety of activities. +4\. Keep the setting basic- Having only a short amount of words to work with, you do not have time to write extensively about the stories setting. Writing as many of the chapters in the same setting can help alleviate this problem. It may not be overly interesting for the reader, but we are really going for quantity not quality. Being the sole survivor is not about making friends or getting people to read what you write, it's about getting as many points as possible. There are several contests through the year that reward good writing. Survivor is not the place for this. +5\. Writing Poetry- Having one story with only a few characters should also help you fulfill your poetry requirements. There are four poetry categories to complete. With four characters, you could choose to write one about each character. There are no minimum lengths required for poetry entries so keep them short. +If you follow these four simple suggestions, you can be on your way to survivor glory and bringing home the cold hard cash. After using the same four characters, in the same settings and writing short burst entries you may be very tired of your characters and take great joy in killing them off at the end. If you have a lot of free time and a good imagination, this How-To can make you a survivor." +919,A Woman's Guide to Getting Married,Bakeboss,How To,2009-03-19,2009-03-19,2022-01-04 08:25:30,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/a-womans-guide-to-getting-married,A lesson in getting your man to commit.,['Marriage'],3.84,"Let me start with saying I do not believe that all women should get married or that all women want to marry, this is meant to be a guide for those females that have a desire to have a husband. With that said let me also point out that I am not a female so the only perspective I have is from the man's point of view. +I started dating my future wife more as a fluke than by design. I had tickets to a show and at the last minute my date canceled out, in fact it was so last minute I couldn't find anyone who was free to go with me. I had just started a new job and I hardly new anyone there. During a coffee break, I happened to sit next to a girl I had spoken to before but I couldn't even remember her name. She turned out to be a lot of fun and we talked and laughed so much our ten minute break turned into a half hour, when she noticed the time she jumped up worried about getting into trouble for being late so on impulse I blurted out a invite to a last second show explaining about my date canceling. As she ran back to work, she shouted an OK over her shoulder. I immediately starting having second thoughts about my rash decision and began to worry about the consequences of dating someone at work. +I really enjoyed our first date, although I think she was rather nervous she didn't object to coming to my place for drinks after the show. We ended up spending the night together more from falling asleep after making love than from making love all night. In the morning I took her home and that is when I found out she lived with her parents, of course that meant they hated me right from the first date. We started dating pretty steady after that, going out after work two or three times after work, at first we weren't exclusive as I was still dating some other girls I knew but I just found I had more fun with her and we evolved into a relationship. +The only snag being I lived in Hollywood while my work was in West LA and my girl lived in Santa Monica. Commuting became a real problem; if we stayed in West LA after work, we ended up in bars and then maybe parked on some quite street. If we went back to my place, we usually ended up falling asleep after making love and then a long drive back and forth to take her home. Finally, I had enough and looked to rent on the West side. Within a month of living in my new apartment, my girl was living with me much to her mother's dismay. +I was not happy about her moving in yet it was so gradual that she was in before I noticed. I had recently divorced and was not looking for any kind of commitment and now here I was living with a girl. I say I wasn't happy yet I have to admit I enjoyed having a girl around who helped with the cooking and cleaning and then of course there was the sex, which was great. +It looked to me that our relationship was headed for problems as we each had a different opinion of what we wanted. My girl was committed to love and a long lasting relationship, I was committed to lust, and as much sex as I could get. My girl decided to not to pressure me into anything and instead made a plan to fuck my brains out until I surrendered. We fucked night and day not even leaving the apartment some weekends barely stopping long enough to eat. I would be tired and so sore that I would swear I'd never fuck again, and then she would start to tease me, pulling up her dress to show off her panties having me watch her rub her pussy while telling me how wet she was getting. All of a sudden, I would feel my cock start to grow and before you know it, we would be at it again. +After about five months of this she told me she was pregnant, I told her, I wanted to do the right thing and that we should get married even going so far as to buy a ring. She called me at work to tell me she started her period so she either wasn't pregnant or maybe had a miscarriage, much to both of our relief. I felt like I had dodged a bullet and it made me wonder if this relationship was something I wanted to commit to for the rest of my life. +Like the heel that most men are, I bolted. I left her a note saying something like; I didn't want to do this anymore and moved out. I went to stay with a friend back in Hollywood, he was glad to see me and told me he already had a wild weekend planned and we would have a ball. This is what I needed, some wild sex with girls whose names I didn't know, I planned to go crazy and just let it all hang out. There was just this little snag, I kept thinking about my girlfriend, or should I say my ex girlfriend. What a louse I was, too chicken shit to face her and I was worried about how she was feeling. I tried to party her out of my mind, the whole weekend was nothing but sex, booze and drugs and yet it didn't help, I couldn't keep the thought of her sitting home crying out of my head. Finally, I called her Sunday night, just to apologize, maybe if I was lucky I would just get the answer machine. She answered on the first ring, her sad voice broke my heart, and the only thing she asked was, are you coming back. I knew right then, there was nothing I wanted more and I moved back that night. +To her it was as if I had never left yet to me all I felt was guilt. How could I do that to her, how could I leave without talking face to face and even more how could I leave the day she had maybe miscarried? All she would say about the whole incident was that it was over and I was back. I already knew she loved me but that was when I knew I loved her and wanted to be with her forever. We went to Vegas on her twenty-first birthday and while we were there I said let's get married. She turned me down at first, saying she knew I didn't want marriage but in the end she accepted. We might have started out shaky but we have been married for almost thirty-nine years now and I love her as much now as I did then. +So then my advice for the women out there who want to get their men to commit to their relationship, is don't cajole, don't demand, just fuck their brains out and in the end they will beg you to be their partner for life." +920,Woman's Guide to Male Panty Fetish,ProfessorPanty,How To,2008-10-01,2008-10-01,2022-01-04 08:42:15,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/womans-guide-to-male-panty-fetish,Required reading for all females.,"['Lingerie', 'Masturbation', 'Panties', 'Panty']",4.59,"My friend Randy and I have 50 years of combined first hand experience with the ever popular fetish for panties. Randy and I have had numerous discussions about women's underwear and the thread that connect this simple, yet complicated, garment to male sexual arousal. We came to the undeniable understanding that most women don't realize the power they possess simply by virtue of their panties. Let me explain..... +Those women that think there's nothing special about their underwear are either naïve, or deeply mis-informed. Our society has taken definite steps to elevate the female panty to a level where no other piece of clothing has ever been, and the proof of that fact is right in front of us every day. Whether you refer to it as underwear, foundation, lingerie, under pants or panties, you can't walk into a mall without seeing one of those specialty stores with numerous pairs of sexy panties on the mannequins in the store windows. Department stores have lingerie displays that are eye-appealing and spacious, all touting panties of different types, colors and fabrics – literally hundreds of pairs all out in the open for everyone to see and touch. While, on the other hand, male underwear is usually on one rack in the men's section, probably hidden against the wall. +In magazines, you can see eye-popping ads of women in their panties. On TV, we are treated to the yearly V.S. lingerie show, and on the internet – a woman in her panties is considered tame and even acceptable. You can go to any beach or swimming pool and you'll notice that swimsuits are emulating lingerie very closely. +So even though underwear, in the strict sense of the word, is meant to be worn under our outer clothes (ie, covered by our outer clothes), the reality of the situation is that women's underwear is most definitely meant to be seen..... and enjoyed. If that wasn't the case, then why aren't women's panties thick, plain, white cotton like men's briefs? If panties weren't meant to be seen, then why are they colorful, soft and sexy, with intricate designs and fabrics? What would be the reason for sheer and transparent panties if no one was ever going to see them? And what would be the use for crotch-less panties? +My point is this: women's panties have transgressed the boundaries of simply being underwear. They are a statement of sensuality, femininity and sexuality, and they are clearly meant to be seen and enjoyed by both women and men. Once one can accept the fact that panties are more than just underwear, then we can get into the real meat of the subject at hand – the male panty fetish. +Now, ladies – you can't blame us men for being attracted to your panties. The truth here is two fold. First, we (men) have been trained to accept the fact that your underwear is special. Second, if you didn't want us to be interested in your panties, you would be wearing those ""Sensible"" cotton things your mom bought you years ago and we (men) would hardly ever see them. The fact that you have a drawer full of soft, silky and sexy delicates is proof that you bought them for just one reason – to get us to look at them and to turn us on. +I could spend days defending an argument supporting the thesis that panties went from being undergarments no one ever saw to sexual apparel, but for the sake of discussion, let's just accept the fact that women's panties are intended to excite. So, that being said, the question really becomes: ""How will women use the sensual power of their panties in their relationship with men?"" +There's one thing I want to throw out there – even before we get into this any deeper, and it's directed to those women whose boyfriends, lovers, husbands, or significant others have already hinted, or maybe even told you, they have an interest in your panties. And that is – don't ignore it. I promise you that when a man has told you they have an interest in your panties, they thought about it considerably before they told you. They agonized over it, considered your reaction and even weighed the chances of you being totally disgusted with their panty interest, but they took the chance you would understand and be willing to at least discuss and consider it. +No man ever approaches a woman to tell her that he would like to have access to her panties without considering the consequences. I'm sure when first approached you might think it's gross, unsanitary, kinky or even perverted. If you feel that way because you don't think you smell fresh, sensual or sexy down there, perhaps you should reconsider. While I don't think the majority of men have an interest in skid mark panties, your natural scent, secretions and juices are the very essence that turns us on. Believe me, we wouldn't ask if we weren't serious about it. So, ladies – if your man has approached you with a request regarding your panties, I urge you to be open minded about it. You'll be glad you did when you see the happiness in his eyes and experience the attention he will give you. +Now, for those women whose man hasn't verbally indicated an interest in your panties, take note of the following points to see if he has a potential panty fetish and how to make it easy for him to broach the subject with you, or how you can easily bring it up to him. +1)""How can I tell if my man has an interest in panties?"" There are many indications that a man might have a panty fetish. Here are some classic signs you can look for: +\- Do you see him looking in the display windows when you walk by the lingerie store? +-Is he agreeable or excited to go lingerie shopping with you? +-Has your man ever used the word ""panty"" or ""panties"" in regular, daily conversation more than you have? +-Does he make mention of the fact that he's had a peek up your skirt and seen your panties? Maybe someone else's skirt? +-Does your man ask you to keep your panties on when you go to bed, or when you have sexual relations? +-Does he watch you dress or undress? +-Does your man like to kiss, sniff, lick or eat you with your panties on? +-Have you ever seen him examine your panties after you've washed and dried them (either discretely or overtly)? +-Have you ever found your panties to be missing (either clean or worn), but then they suddenly reappear later? +-Have you ever felt that the laundry hamper seems to have been rummaged through? +-Have you noticed that your lingerie drawer isn't exactly how you left it? +-Have you ever discovered that your man has unexpectedly washed a load of your delicates? +-Has your man ever taken pictures of you in your panties? +-Have you ever caught him red-handed with your panties? +-Have any of your friends or relatives ever told you they lost a pair of panties while they were at your house/apt? +-Have any of your friends or relatives ever told you they lost a pair of panties after an instance where your man was at their house/apt? +-And of course..... has your man ever said anything that would lead you to believe he's got an interest in your panties? +2)""What kind of behaviors could I expect to see if my man does have a panty fetish?"" Some behaviors could be subtle, and some could be obvious. Some behaviors could be completely secret, especially if he thinks you would chastise him for them. Here's some fairly common panty fetish behaviors: +-Fondling, stroking or handling panties +-Masturbating with, or stroking off into panties +-Sniffing, licking or sucking panties +-Stealing, borrowing or collecting panties from you, friends or relatives +-Collecting pictures of females in panties +-Shopping for panties +-Peeking up skirts +-And of course - wearing panties (Don't be shocked at this. It's not that uncommon and there are well documented, historical accounts of men wearing female undergarments as far back as the eighteenth century. As a side note here, you might be interested to search the internet for ""Pinaforing"" and ""Petticoating""). +3)""What can I do proactively to broach the subject of panties with my man?"" There are many things you can do to create a safe and open environment to bring up or encourage a discussion of your man's potential interest in panties. Here's a few ideas: +-Leave a stack of your clean panties out for a day or so – as if you've simply forgotten to put them away after you washed and dried them – and see if he notices or comments about them. +-Ask your man if he wants to go lingerie shopping with you. Then, while you're shopping, ask his opinion to find out which colors, styles and fabrics he likes. Involve him and see how interested he is. Offer to model them for him. +-Leave a select pair of your worn panties on the floor in your bedroom, or a place where you know he'll find them. Pay special attention to see if they are disturbed, moved, or if they disappear. +-Ask your man to pick out which panties he wants you to wear, then praise his choice and let him see you in them. +-Ask your man to help you clean out your lingerie drawer. Then, ask him to show you which ones are his favorites – and then ask him why. +-Ask your man which type of panties he likes to see you wear – bikini, briefs, hipsters, boyshorts, full cut, thongs, etc. Then, show him you honor his preferences by wearing what he likes. +-Find a reason to walk around in front of him for an extended amount of time with nothing but your panties on below your waist. +-Surprise him by letting him see you touch yourself with just your panties on. +-Outright ask him if panties turn him on. If he replies with anything other than an immediate ""No"" you can ask clarifying questions to gently open the subject with him. +-Playfully, ask your man to wear a pair of your panties. Say it's just for fun and it will be a secret just between the two of you. See how fast or slow he either agrees or disagrees. If he agrees, praise him for his courage. +Okay, let's say after reading, considering and trying some of the ideas and suggestions above you find out your man might have some level of a panty fetish. What do you do then? Well, that's when you have to use your feminine intuition and wisdom. Let's face it, if your man does have a panty fetish – or even an above average interest in panties – you would be smart to at least understand it, learn how to allow it and how to use it in your relationship. +Understanding your man's sexual desires and needs is a key factor in keeping him interested and your relationship sexually healthy. Believe me, if you are sympathetic and understanding about his panty interest, he'll love you for it and he'll pay you back ten-fold for your kindness. +I feel obligated to tell you a brief personal story now – not because I think it's something you have to know, but, because I hope you can gleam something from the story that will give you some insight. Here goes: +I'm on my second marriage. My first marriage failed miserably. Not only did our relationship as friends fail, but our relationship as sexual partners failed, too. In fact, our sexual relationship failed almost from the very beginning, primarily (I think) because I've had a life long interest in panties. I made the mistake of telling her about it on our honeymoon. Unfortunately, she thought it was terrible, horrible and unforgivable that I wanted to covet her panties. It meant so much to me and I was courageous in telling her, but she ripped my heart out when she told me she would never allow such a perversion and if she would have known about it before our wedding – she would have never married me. +Yeah, okay – my bad. I should have told her before I proposed, or, at least before we were married. But, I didn't. We were eventually divorced and it was a messy, vindictive affair that drained me emotionally. +A few years later, I met a woman and we started dating. After a month or two, we started being intimate and I gathered up the courage to tell her about my panty fetish. She completely understood and was excited that I shared it with her. In fact, it became a foundation of our sex life and the openness it created allowed both of us to confidently discuss our desires and fantasies with each other. Now, years later, I have complete access to her panties any time I want it, and she even includes panties in our sex play without me having to ask. +I always go lingerie shopping with her, even though I hate going shopping. All she has to do to get me to go with her is tell me she might pick up a few pairs of panties – and I'm ready to spend all day with her. On top of that, she's allowed my panty fetish to flourish so that I'm free to wear them when I desire to, and she'll even take the initiative to dress me in them from time to time. +The point of my story is that her acceptance of my panty fetish has allowed our love to grow and set the tone of our sexual relationship to be accepting and considerate of each other's needs. Would I have kept dating her if I'd learned she couldn't accept my panty fetish? Not on your life. +Ladies, please don't slam the door shut on your man if he's got a panty fetish. You're only going to push him away and force him into behaviors behind your back. That's not going to do anything constructive for your relationship or your marriage, and it's only going to create an intimacy gap between you and your man. +I'm going to leave you with one last thought..... my wife told me once she was proud I had a fetish for her panties. She felt her femininity was confirmed and ratified, and she got off on the fact that I was so attracted to HER panties. ""Most of all,"" she said, ""I know this is something you desperately want, and I'm happy I can be the one to give you as much of it as you want."" +Comments, suggestions, thoughts and questions are welcome." +921,Women's Guide To No-Strings,Softly,How To,2000-10-10,2000-10-10,2022-01-04 08:42:16,3,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/womens-guide-to-no-strings-ch-1,1. Seduce and enjoy married men. 2. She gives the specifics. 3. A How-To for the ladies only.,"['Fifteen Minutes', 'Food Drinks', 'Group Men', 'Legs Open']",4.20,"It was quite by accident that I discovered how a woman can have exciting sexual encounters with men, of her choice, and be able to go home that night without any worry of entanglements. +My husband and I went to a private party given by the friend of a friend. There were twenty-three couples there. A vodka punch was server that was very effective in getting everyone tipsy. My husband, well gunned, was chatting with a group of other men in the den. I made myself useful by serving food and drinks. My wine bottle was half consumed, so I was tipsy too. Seeing an attractive man away from his wife, I asked him to dance. I like to watch a man's reaction when he discovers that I have C cup breasts, so I pressed them to his chest and my leg against his. During one dip, my pelvic area pressed against his leg. He held me tightly while rubbing my back. The song ended. He stayed right there and we talked. He was pleasantly drunk, and I could tell that he wanted to be with me. +At the end of a second dance, I excused myself to got to a bathroom. He followed me into the bathroom, locked the door, and backed me up to the sink. In one move, he reached under my dress, lowered my pantyhose and begin to press his mouth to my clitoris. Bemused by this, I reached for his head. As I shifted my weight the pressure of the sink edge behind me made my legs open so that he could get his tongue into me. Oh, but it felt good! Mind you, we are in a bathroom. He lowered me to the floor, dropped his pants and slid his penis into me. Because of the punch, it took him ten minutes to cum. I had two orgasms. We cleaned up and left to return to the dance area. He walked right up to his wife and danced with her like nothing had happened. +I found my husband with the same group of men. From the slurring of his words, I figured he was planted there for the night. I went to look around the home. It was a three level. The master bed room was huge. The host entered it while I was there. He was six foot five and two hundred thirty pounds. Good looking. ""Love this room,"" I said. He replied that he especially liked the mirrors that made up one wall. ""So you can observe yourself in action,"" I blurted out. ""Yes,"" He kissed me and lay me onto the bed. He too removed my pantyhose with one sweep. +I could not believe this. I was naked from the waist down, since my dress was above my waist. I was in a strange bed with my legs open about to receive the service of a handsome man who I did not know the mane of, and I knew that he did not know me. +I was forty years old, at the time, weight one hundred, thirty-nine pounds, and stood five foot, four. He removed his pants giving me a look at his privates. Nice! About seven thick inches. I was wet, as he could tell when he put his hand there. He mounted me. No hurry: just steady long thrusts. The drinks kept him from cuming for fifteen minutes. Add two more orgasms to my total for the night. I closed my eyes, and just enjoyed the action for all it was worth. +We cleaned up and returned to the party area. No one noticed us. Both men resumed their rolls in the scheme of thing, which did not include being with me. My husband and I left an hour later with the good wishes of the hostess, who thanked me for helping serve the food and drinks. +I thought a lot about what had happened and why it went so well. I wanted more of this sex with good looking men, without any follow up on their part to sully my reputation. +I joined the welcome wagon clubs in the near by cities. I also joined two country clubs as non playing member, which is cheap. I make myself very useful to any woman having a party either at home or at the clubs. My husband works the evening shift, three months on and three months off, so I have a lot of time to go places on my own. It is over two years since the ""discovery"" party. To date, I have had sex with ninety-six (96) men at parties. Not one has tried to call me at home. I am getting very good at going around the building that the party is in, when I get there, to find places that a couple can be alone, and undisturbed for fifteen minutes. Its a game. I am the hunter. And, yes, the sex is very very exciting. +Love Y'all, I'm Softly, UB2... + +" +922,Word Choice,evelyn_carroll,How To,2004-10-20,2004-10-20,2022-01-04 08:42:19,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/word-choice-1,A response to wyo_girl's article.,"['Choice Words', 'Darling Master', 'Make Scream', 'Master Spoke', 'Rain Check', 'Spoke Quietly', 'Suck Monster', 'Sweet Thing', 'Time Rain', 'Word Choice']",3.95,"Wyo_girl has written a fine and very useful article on the choice of words in erotic description. It was so good that I felt moved to reply and add a few thoughts. Also, she misses a couple of important points and I wanted to suggest a few more ""thesaurus"" entries from my own repertoire – for the use and convenience of the young, as Oscar Wilde might have put it. +***** +The points on word choice are +1\. The choice of words (""cock"" versus ""hardness"", say) needs to reflect the normal speech patterns, motivation and mood of the character who is speaking or whose viewpoint currently dominates the narrative. +Examples +A dominatrix talking down a slave will refer to the slave's cunt, not her sex or pussy, and certainly not her genitalia. +The same slave will think of her ""sex"" until she submits, when it becomes her ""cunt"", thus showing the progress of her mentation from paragraph to paragraph. +A chauvinistic guy with a limited imagination might say ""love tunnel"" or ""honeypot"" but I can't imagine a woman or an educated or sensitive man ever using such dreadful clichés. +A character with even a mild sense of humour may refer to the lingam as his ""pork sword"" or use a phrase such as ""pointing Peter at the prickpleaser"" (note the use of alliteration. Alliteration, incidentally, is not the same thing as writing: fuck me, fuck me, fuck me!) +A young, innocent girl might use ""spear"" and ""sword"" or even ""thing""; words from her everyday vocabulary that are similes or euphemisms for the fearful tumescence she is gazing upon for the first time. She would not use a word like ""hardness"". +Women will usually only use ""cunt"" once they are in a very intimate relationship with the person they are talking to or if they wish to shock the listener/reader or emphasize their own readiness to face their sexuality head on. +Men tend to know a lot of word for the penis. Women more often stick to one or two, such as prick and dick. +Use of latinate anatomical terms (penis, labia minori) suggests that the speaker/viewpoint owner is educated/cultured. +2\. It is important to vary the words to avoid a sense of repetition. This applies equally to words that do not concern anatomy or coitus. Fowler, in ""Modern English Usage"", calls this ""elegant variation"". +Example +Rather than ‘She was too scared not to suck the monster at her lips; she was dog tired too,' (two too's) try something like ‘Fear prevented her from not sucking the monster at her lips; she was dog tired too,' or ‘She was too scared not to suck the monster at her lips; she was dog tired as well'. +On the other hand, sometimes you want to set a mood with repetition. E.g. ""She came and came and came; and then, just when she thought she had no coming left in her, she came again – gloriously."" +Finally, I rather dislike the use of words that appear nowhere other than in, for want of a better word, porn. This sentence is from one of wyo_girl's stories but she's by no means the only offender. +""Make me cum. Suck me til [sic] I cum, please... aahhhhh, fuck me,"" she begged. +I hate ""cum"" used like this, common as it is on this site and although it is in the dictionary these days. IMHO, that spelling should be reserved for expressions like ""their guestroom-cum-dungeon"". There is nothing wrong with shooting a long jet of COME over her tits. Otherwise, how can you write this: +‘Did he COME, Inspector?' ‘Yes, he CAME all over her breasts'? +""Came"", past tense of ""to come""; get it? If you go for the ""cum"" option then I think the past participle should be ""cummed"". You really wanna write ""he cummed all over her breasts""? +***** +Curiously, although there are several books on punctuation, there is no book available that deals specifically with punctuation for writers of fiction. In experimental fiction there are no rules, but some publishers have standards (which they usually don't publish). Here are some rules I've had to learn the hard way. +1\. Comma before named addressee +‘Make me scream, Kylie.' – An order or request addressed to Kylie asking her to give pleasure (or pain) to the speaker. +‘Make me scream Kylie.' – An order or request addressed to somebody asking them to force the speaker to shout out Kylie's name. +Lots of people get this wrong, the most common examples being ‘Yes Sir', Yes Mistress', etc. +2\. Capitalize proper names and titles +Bad:- +‘Yes, sir.' ‘Yes, darling.' Yes, my Darling.' The Master spoke quietly. ‘No, master.' +Good:- +‘Yes, Sir.' ‘Yes, Darling.' Yes, my darling.' The master spoke quietly. ‘No, Master.' +There will be some borderline cases, where you must use judgment; e.g. should it be ‘Of course, Sweet Thing,' or ‘Of course, sweet thing'. It depends on whether she's just being a sweet thing or whether he's giving her the nickname Sweet Thing. +3.Comma after introductory phrase/clause +""So, you're going to help me?"" is sometimes (usually) better than ""So you're going to help me?"". It provides a nice pause; the speaker can almost be SEEN cocking her head or smiling between phrases. But don't overdo it. Here's a sentence where I would leave it as it is. ‘This time I'll take a rain check.' Whereas a purist (such as an editor at The Newyorker!) would want ‘This time, I'll take a rain check'. It all depends on the speech rhythm you are trying to convey. +Grammar checkers are good at picking up on this kind of thing. But it must be YOU that decides. +4\. Hyphenate adjectives not nouns +Good:- +Her still-wet sex. His oh-so-obsequious manner. Those cunt-wrenchingly beautiful breasts of hers. Her badly applied makeup. His modest jock strap (jockstrap is OK too). Her tight tee shirt and miniscule G string. (Teeshirt is OK. G-string is usual but not really kosher. It will probably survive because the correct form makes it sound like she's playing a miniature violin.) +Bad:- +Her still wet sex. (Unless you mean it isn't moving; a wet, stationary target for his thrust!) Her badly-applied make-up. His modest jock-strap. Her tight tee-shirt and miniscule G-string. +5\. Mandatory punctuation before closing quote +‘Did he?' she asked. +‘Wow!' breathed the boy. +Those two make sense of course but what about this? +‘I'm finished' he said. +The speaker's sentence ended with a full stop but the convention is to use a comma, because your sentence hasn't yet finished; like this +‘I'm finished,' he said. +The comma here performs no function. It's crazy, but the convention has been fixed at least since Samuel Richardson used it in ""Pamela"". +On the other hand, the logically and grammatically correct +He said: ‘I am not the ""man"" you are looking for'. +is usually written without the colon as +He said ‘I am not the ""man"" you are looking for'. +BTW, in American the final full stop can't be where I've placed it (correctly in English). US style rules would render the above as +He said ""I am not the ‘man' you are looking for."" +For me, I still use the colon, but sparingly. It is also correct to use a comma (viz. e.g. Richardson again) +***** +Finally, a couple of additions to wyo_girl's mini thesaurus (just for fun). +Breasts, areolae and nipples +Baby feeders, boobs, cleavage curtains, knockers, secondary sex(ual) organs, squeezables, tits, two little boys fighting in a sack. Fried eggs, moon craters. +Adjectives: bud-like, burgeoning, incipient, touch-tempting, Partonesque (my own coinage), pendulous, pneumatic, scrawny, hag-like. +The backside +Arse/ass, behind, bum/butt, buttocks, derrière, fanny (US), fundament, globes, gluteus maximus, hindquarters, nates, posterior, rear, rear end, rump, seat. Anus, rectum, rosebud, the cacky chute, where the sun never shines. +My favourite adjective here is ""calipygous"" (= fair buttocked). One is less likely to get one's face slapped if overheard, compared to ‘Nice arse!' +The (primary) female organs +Centre of _____, fanny (GB), girls' bits, honeypot, sex, Lady Jane, Lulu, that thing you're sitting on, yoni. Labia (majori/minori), (sex) lips, those other lips, vulva. Clit(oris). Vagina. Cervix. Womb. +The male organs/genitalia +Family jewels, the future of Britain (America, Canada, the world – as appropriate). Ballbag (that's what Rabelais calls it!), bollocks, scrotum, sperm factories, the wrinkled old family retainer. Dong, erection, John Thomas, knob, lingam, member, phallus, priapus, prick, old codger, old man, one-eyed trouser snake, shrew tamer, shaft, spear, stiffy, todger, tumescence. Glans, head, helmet, tip. +Sperm(atozoa), orgasm +Come/cum, gift, jism, load, mess, semen, spunk, white stuff. Apotheosis, climax, peak of pleasure, le petit mort, completion. +I'm sure there are lots more; but I hope these start you thinking and inventing.

Let's face it - your story represents you. Do you want the impression you give to be one of an incredibly sexy individual who knows what to say and when to say it or could your word choice be giving the impression that you spend too much time in the gynecologist's office? +Words fuel our imaginations. They can be strung together to create pictures in our minds of activities, exotic places, foreign locales, or for those of us on Literotica, erotic situations. That is why word choice is so important. Some words just sound sexier than others. When I was a kid, using the word ""peter"" to refer to the male penis was the norm. Now it conjures up images of pimply- faced kids giggling over their first glimpse of a risqué magazine. For that reason, I tend to avoid using it in my stories. +There are many elements that make an erotic story hot. In addition to choosing sexy sounding terms for genitalia, the use of good descriptions is important. You can't expect your reader to understand how excited the characters are unless you tell him how they feel. The words need to bring a picture to life in the reader's mind. Continuing those descriptions is also important. You may be describing the same action in two different paragraphs but if you use different words to tell the story, the reader sees it differently. More importantly, what turns one reader on won't necessarily turn on every reader. By using different words to describe the same action you get two chances to grab the reader. Take these lines for example: + **""The head was an angry reddish color and she could feel the vein underneath swelling. The hole at the tip seemed to expand and a huge gush of milky, white cum shot out and landed on her hip and lower stomach.""** +I used two different words for the head of the penis in these two sentences. I chose words I liked when I wrote those lines. If a reader doesn't like the word head, the next sentence uses tip. My hope is that the reader who doesn't like my use of the word head will continue to read and get to the word tip and like it better. Hooking a reader by making the story enjoyable is the point after all. +Word choice is also important for the moment you are trying to create. Words like penis and vagina are a bit too clinical for me but others might like them just fine. Some words sound softer than others, more romantic. Those who've read a few bodice-ripping romances know they never use words like cock but prefer ""his maleness"" or ""member"" or ""hardness."" We all know what they mean but these terms are more romantic than just flinging the word ""cock"" in their faces. When I was a teen-ager, those words thrilled me and cock seemed dirty. Now, cock seems a lot sexier but those bodice-rippers fly off the shelves so there must be someone reading them! +Choosing your words carefully is only half the battle though. Making sure you absolutely know the meaning of the word you choose before you use it is also important. I read a story not long ago that made me laugh and that wasn't the reaction the author was going for when he described his hero's flaccid, steely shaft. The entire story appeared to be written with the idea of using a different adjective every time he described the body parts of his characters. He had even used the word maw for vagina. Maybe that word excited him but it left me thinking of a hole the size of the Grand Canyon and wondering how on earth sex with that could be any good! While the story had lots of action, the author obviously didn't know that flaccid and steely are opposites. +When I started writing, I looked at stories I enjoyed reading and made a list of the words those writers used to name body parts. I also made a list of the descriptive words they used to describe the actions of their characters. I continue to add adjectives and adverbs as I run across ""keepers."" The words in my lists are not necessarily interchangeable as they contain positive and negative terms as well as adjectives and adverbs. Some words can be both. For example in the breast category, milky could refer to the color of the breasts or it could refer to their condition after milk was expressed from the nipples. I've included my lists in this article in the hopes others might find them as useful as I have. +Good editing is the subject of a number of ""how to"" articles and it is important. I certainly don't want to give anyone the impression that it isn't but all the editing in the world won't save a story that uses the word cock over and over again if that word offends the reader. We all look for some variety in other areas of our lives so why not give your readers a little variety with your word choice?

'Working With Her G-Spot & His Prostate']",4.26,"**Spend A Passionate Evening Finding Each Other's G-Spots** +The G-spot may not be a surprise to some women who have already discovered the ultimate orgasm using this quarter-sized button of spongy tissue of the front vaginal wall. These women may have gone looking for it themselves or perhaps discovered it accidentally during intercourse. If you don't experiment with positions, you may never find it, or, if you do, the penis may glide right over it. So now you need to find it, either solo or duo. + **Solo -- Hers** +A squatting position is best if you don't have your guy's longer fingers for help. From the outside, place your non-dominant hand on the top of your pubic hairline in the middle. With the other hand, insert your lubricated index and middle fingers deep inside the vagina, as far up as you can. Feel for differences in the front wall; when you find it, it will feel spongy and be about the size of a quarter. As you continue to massage the area, it will swell and become harder, just as a penis does. You may have to try different pressures and strokes to obtain an orgasm, or you can buy a special vibrator with a G-spot finder curve on the end of it. When you finally do achieve an orgasm this way, it will feel quite different from a clitoral orgasm; you will feel waves of intense pleasure and aftershocks that you cannot get with a clitoral 'tickle' orgasm. Note: when you first find the G-spot you may have an over whelming feeling of needing to urinate. This will pass. However, you may find that you have 'ejaculated' a thin, white milky substance. Or not. The fluid does not lessen nor intensify the feelings. + **Duo -- Hers** +Of course it is a lot more fun to experiment with your partner. Those longer fingers really do come in handy. The positions for intercourse to use so that his penis can find the G-spot and you can both climax in an earth-shattering cloud are: woman on top, sitting, facing away from the male. The angle of the penis will rub against the front wall of the vagina. You can also be seated and face him if you lean back but push your pelvis forward. Doggy style will work and so will his lying on your back and penetrating deeply because all of these positions cause the penis to rub that special place. Later, after you've practiced a number of times, you will be able to have both kinds of orgasms and you'll see why it is definitely worth all the time you need to find and 'work' with it. Now, on to him. + **His Prostate** +Okay, so he really doesn't have a 'G-spot' per se, not like the spot Dr. Grafenberg named in women. But his prostate, properly stimulated, will give him the same kind of orgasmic pleasure your G gives you. The area right behind the scrotum and up to the anus is the perineum. You know the place, that hairless area. If you stimulate by pushing gently (until you find the right amount of pressure and motions) on the outside, this will squeeze the prostate and give him an orgasm he's never had before. It's the same as rubbing your G-spot on the outside to cause pressure on the inside. You can start by stroking it gently and build up as he's closer to orgasm. In an interview with men whose girlfriends had turned them on this way, all agreed it was the best sex they ever had. Also suggested was having the woman gently suck and lick the testicles while gently stroking the perineum. +So, light some candles, bathe each other or yourself and relax. Your favourite music or nature sounds,satin sheets, 300-count Egyptian cotton sheets, fluffy pillows...whatever soothes and carries you off to happiness and pure pleasure! +Experiment, experience and appreciate each other's bodies.

Personally I just cannot imagine anything nicer than the experience of sucking a beautiful hard...or soft cock and knowing that my efforts are being enjoyed. I believe it is an honor and a privilege to be allowed to pleasure a man in this way. I have always wanted to explain why I love it so much and how I feel when I do it and what the experience gives me. That is what I will attempt to do now. I hope that someone out there enjoys reading about how wonderful cock sucking is from one woman's perspective....and hopefully somehow...a few of those women out there who see it as a ""chore"" can be converted into developing a new attitude to pleasuring their man. +My first time that I went down on a man was after a late...or rather, early night of partying hard on the dance floor of a local nightclub when I was just eighteen. He was thirty-seven and we had been getting hot and close all night and into the morning. Others on the dance floor were telling us to ""get a room""...and we finally listened to them. So off we went to his place for the rest of the 'night'. +We both had a shower and went to bed but sleep was the last thing on our minds. So we kissed and I finally got close enough to see what I had been brushing up against all night. His cock was long and hard and I ached to touch it. I didn't ask, just reached out and felt it...running my hand up and down the shaft.... Soon I was masturbating him with both hands and getting more and more excited by his groans of pleasure. I don't know why, but I just sort of took control of the situation because he was enjoying himself so much and seemed happy by what I was doing. So I kissed a trail down his strong lean stomach till my mouth found it's target. +He was so surprised when my mouth engulfed his cock. He couldn't seem to believe that I had just gone straight down on him without a word of encouragement from him. He seemed almost alarmed that I had wanted to suck his cock. For me it was the most natural thing in the world. I had never done it before and I had never even seen porn at that stage in my life. I just knew I wanted to taste...to use all the senses that I possessed. But then, that is just how I am...I believe in getting the most out of a beautiful experience...making meaningful memories that last long after the act. That is what I am all about. +So that was my first experience of sucking a cock and when I think about it now...what I loved most of all about it...was the way he enjoyed what I did. He encouraged me every step of the way with moans and groans...saying ""YES"" when I sucked his balls or gently stroked them with my hands while sucking his cock. Then afterwards, he had looked at me in amazement and awe...admitting that he had never been so masterfully handled before and wondering where I had learned to do it so well.... +He also told me that no woman had seemed to really enjoy sucking his cock before and that it usually seemed as if a woman did it as a ""favor"" or saw it as a ""chore"".....needing to be asked to do it. He said he couldn't believe I had done it voluntarily. What he said had made me wonder why anyone faced with such a lovely cock would need to be asked to suck it...I just couldn't understand it. From that first experience I learned so much about men and what they like and I also learned about myself and what I like too. +For me there is no greater compliment than having a man's erect cock pointing straight at me...I see it like a child sees candy...it just begs to be tasted and sucked. It is my reward for being a good girl...I get to have the lollipop. When we are young our parents teach us that there is more joy in giving...than receiving and as we grow older, many of us stop thinking that way and start to want more and more and give less and less. That is such a shame because life should be more about giving and enjoying the shared pleasures that creates. +It is not a nice feeling when we give someone a present and then realize that it is not actually something that they need or want. But most women quickly recognize that sucking their man's cock is one of the greatest presents you can give him....and sadly, many women use this as a blackmailing tool...manipulating their men into giving them something or doing something for them or forgiving them after a fight. This really makes me angry and my heart goes out to those men who are being used in such ways. +What do I love about sucking a juicy cock? Well, this is something that cannot be said in a sentence or two...I need to write a whole fucking story about it! For me it is an honor, as mentioned before. Here is a man...a beautiful man with a nice juicy cock all ready to be used by you. Just the thought that someone WANTS me to pleasure him...that is the first thing that excites me beyond belief! Without that WANT....I might as well be sitting back watching television. +I love the visual aspect of a cock disappearing into a willing mouth...and sometimes I envy the man because he gets to look down at his cock moving in and out between loving lips of a wanting woman. So, because I cannot see it from where I am...up close to all the action...I imagine how it must look to the man I am sucking...seeing it from his point of view. That turns me on BIGTIME!! I love when a man tells his woman to ""look up"" at him while she sucks him...and I imagine that sight from his perspective. +Eye contact is so important for me during sex. Eyes are windows to the soul...so to look into them means to see more than just a cock...or a man...or a woman...but instead to see right through to what makes them who they are. That is something I find incredibly attractive when I am in love. I want to see inside the man, which allows me access to even his deepest, darkest secrets and desires. When I look up into a man's eyes as I suck his cock, my heart beats even faster and harder, making me hornier and wetter. To see a man's eyes reflecting the emotions he is feeling...the amazing sight he is seeing...the sensations he is experiencing...THAT stays with me and affects my every thought of him from that moment on. +I also love seeing a cock all shiny and wet with my saliva from sucking him and spitting on him. It is a turn-on for both my man and me when my mouth pulls back from sucking and there is a long rope of drool connecting my mouth with his cock. It is all part of getting 'down and dirty' during an intense sexual experience. The visual aspect itself is fantastic...but that is expanded even more when you add the mental stimulation. The fact that a woman will play for hours with a man's cock and drool all over it and enjoy seeing all that wetness and get turned on by it...that is what pleases a man and when he is pleased...that in turn pleases me too. +I have often made reference to my sense of smell when engaging in close contact with another. How a man smells all over and especially when you get close to his cock, can mean the difference between a woman feeling like she is in heaven...or in bed with the toilet brush. That may sound cruel but I can understand why some women are turned off by a man who is not clean or healthy. An unhealthy man who does not eat the right foods or drink plenty of water can smell less than nice and this affects the mood and the taste of his cock and also the taste and smell of his cum. +I love the clean, fresh smell of a healthy man who takes great pride in his body. This also makes me want to worship his body as I would like mine worshiped. I even love the smell of a healthy man's sweat. This kind of sweat is even a turn-on for me after he has been exercising and while he works out with me. +My mouth waters when I kiss the head of a man's cock. I feel the anticipation of what he will taste like and slowly I let my tongue lick over his head and gently into the eye...marveling at the fact that this is the source of so much...most importantly, the giver of human life. Right there at the tip of his manhood is the place where such important bodily fluids are excreted. My knees go weak when I think about this place I am licking...allowing myself to love all that this sacred tool is used for. +I love using my tongue to trace a line of saliva around the rim of his mushroom head and allow it to pop in and out of my mouth. This gets me really worked up as it is very sexual. I love to look up right then and see him close his eyes in pleasure at the friction that is created with this movement. I love to hear the sounds of his rapid breathing and the deep rumbling timbre of his lustful groans. I love the excited thrusting motions as he tilts his hips to meet my hungry mouth. Allowing the rhythm to take a hold of me and escalate...is something so exciting... +Hands are so important during all forms of sex as they are what 'speaks' when there are no words. My favorite is kissing him while working my saliva covered hands up and down his slick shaft, being sure to stimulate the sensitive parts around the rim of his head. I enjoy pulling my head back a little so I can just look into his eyes while masturbating him and telling him how much I love him and what I am doing to him. There is so much you can do with your hands during a blow-job...an endless list of techniques which stimulate him in different ways...like rotating two hands around him or stroking his balls at the same time...or just using two fingers, thumb and second finger in the shape of an O...just rapidly over his head.... +I love the sense of power that I have when I hold my man's cock in my mouth or hands. At that moment and for the next hour or two...I am in control of what happens...and I am responsible for him having the most sensational, meaningful experience possible. I want it to be mind-blowing for him and not over and done with in an instant. I want to take him to the edge as many times as possible, stopping every time he is about to cum. I want him to experience orgasms of the mind and body...sometimes cuming only a little bit (if he is capable of that...not all men can do it) and then at the end, allowing him to shoot hot ribbons of cum as far as he can...or all over me. +The first time I tried to swallow a man's cum I was only eighteen years old and I did not like the taste. It was like horrible warm soup to me and I had to spit it out, almost vomiting in the process. For some women it is like that every time and they never get used to the taste and smell. But for me, the greater my love for the man, the greater my fascination with his cum. Now I love to smell it and lick the little droplets of pre-cum off the tip of his cock. I love the feeling of accepting his 'offering' to me like a reward for my efforts when he finally cums. +I have learned that a man is very proud of his cock and what cums out of it. For him to see a woman enjoying his cock and his cum, makes him feel emotions that are almost too hard to put into words. When I saw my fist porno I watched in horror as the man came all over the woman's face and tits as well as into her mouth. I couldn't believe she was actually enjoying that! Now I beg for cum. I love the fact that it is such a turn-on for a man to see his cum all over a woman as she smiles and licks it off. Once again, I put the shoe on the other foot and see it from his point of view. How AMAZING must it be to look down on a woman on her knees as long ribbons of cum spurt out of your cock and land all over her lovely face? +There are so many things you can do when you have a man's cock in your mouth. When I first watched porn, I would skip over the part where the woman was sucking him because I had no real concept of what went on during that time...the cameral didn't go into her mouth. But now I know how much actually goes on in there. You can tell from the sounds a man is making what is happening to his cock. I like to flick the tip of my tongue over the eye of a man's cock and especially work up a rhythm around the sensitive dent where the rim meets on the underside of his cock....all the while still sucking him and moving his cock in and out of my mouth. This can only be felt by my man and me but not seen by anyone watching. +Another discovery which was so exciting for me was the concept of 'deep throating'. I never realized that it was possible to take a man's cock down deep into my throat. I thought that when it slid into my mouth and stopped...that was it...that was as far as it could go. When I found out that a cock can actually move past that stopping point and slide down my throat I was so amazed. It is hard work, especially with a thick cock but the look on his face...pure joy...and the sounds of raw ecstasy in his voice as he realizes what you are doing for him...that is worth any discomfort. I have enjoyed this form of giving and have made it a point to 'practice' as often as I can so I get used to relaxing my throat to ward off my 'gagging reflex'. This is where I like to use my various different sized dildos. +There are still two more senses I have not gone into in any great depth. Those are the sounds and the feel or more importantly, the feelings. I find the sounds that sucking on a cock makes, exciting and dirty in an animal-like way. The squelching sounds of hands covered in saliva, rubbing over a dripping cock....fucking awesome! It all adds to the experience in a positive way...heightening sexual pleasure for both the man and the woman. +I always say to men that if they want to know how the head of a cock feels in your mouth...then take a boiled egg and peel it. Pop it into your mouth and lick it...and that is what it feels like. It is so smooth and velvety and delicate...so sweet and succulent. I love textures...materials that are smooth or ribbed...silky or course. The feel of a man's hairy strong arm against my smooth bald pussy...this all adds to the excitement and sensation so that feeling of touching his cock and balls to me is like an 'all you can eat buffet' is to a starving man. +I know that I have only touched the surface of what can be done...and what can be felt when going down on a man or 'giving head'...but I am not a very technical type of person so I can only try to describe how it feels to me. My greatest fantasy is to have a naked man on my bed and to have the next few hours or days or weeks to just do everything I have always dreamed of doing to and for him. For me it all begins and ends with the mind. First you must have the thought and then you put it into action. But at the end you must be able to reflect on what you did and communicate with your partner. This way you learn from each experience and find ways of improving each time. +There is an endless world of different sexual experiences to be had so there are no excuses for doing the same thing, the same way...every time. +So women who just suck their man's cock for a few minutes as foreplay should re-examine what they are giving. You don't cook the same dish, the same way, every day...so why not shake things up a bit? I believe that women who have a sexy male in their life...should worship his cock." +927,Write a Successful Romance,starrkers,How To,2008-05-06,2008-05-06,2022-01-04 08:42:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/write-a-successful-romance,Tongue-in-cheek tips to the toplists.,"['Satire', 'Writing How-To']",4.47,"So, you want to be a successful Literotica Romance writer? +Writing for Literotica is not very different for writing any other style of Romance. There are a couple of differences, though. +For one, you can write in instalments, building the tension by making your readers wait for the next chapter, instead of just turning the page. +Also, you can get more raunchy in the description of sex scenes than you would normally see in, say, a Harlequin novel. You don't _have_ to go for explicit, in-depth sex scenes though. That is the joy of the Romance category -- just about any level of sexual description goes, from a kiss and cuddle and a shutting of a bedroom door right through to full-frontal, wild, hot and wet sex. +But we're getting a little ahead of ourselves. Before we can have sex, we need people. In Romance, it's best that you have two main characters -- one male and one female -- to fall in love. There will also be a cast of lesser characters: friends and family of the main characters. And there needs to be a villain or two. +The female lead character must be feisty. She will know exactly what she wants, and she doesn't want a man. She's been burned in the past by a louse and has decided she doesn't need the heartache ever again. Or she's too busy with her studies or career to bother with all the foolery of love. She is, of course, ravishingly beautiful, but doesn't know it. +The male lead will also be dashingly good looking. He probably does know it. He will know immediately upon meeting the female lead that he wants to marry her. He will be outrageously rich (this may or may not be common knowledge). +She will not like him at The First Meeting. In fact she may well despise his cocksure attitude. But she will fall in love with him almost immediately, denying that she has. +Here's where the friends and/or family come in. Her friends will either be all for her hooking up with this wonderful chap, or they will be seriously warning her against him because of his known womanising. +He will be using his friends/family to help him get to know her better. +At this point we have The Revelation. She will realise she has fallen desperately in love with him. He will be ecstatic that he has won her over. +If you are so inclined, this is a good spot to put the First Sex Scene, to consummate their love. Violins play and weddings are planned. They are all set for the Happy Ever After. +And now you need to drop in the Evil Plot Twist. +Just as everything seems peachy between our two lovebirds, she has to see him in a compromising position with another woman, preferably a former girlfriend. He is totally innocent of any wrong doing. The evil ex-girlfriend has schemed her way to this action, so she can get him back. +Our heroine will leave in a flood of self recrimination and tears. How could she have been so foolish as to believe he loved her? Oh woe -- you know the drill. She leaves the fabulously expensive gift he has just given her in a prominent place for him to find when he comes looking for her when she doesn't turn up when expected. +She will cut off all contact with him, refusing to speak to him, the cad. She will be righteous and heartbroken. +He will be bemused and heartbroken, unable to understand why she has shut him out totally. He will move heaven and earth to get her back. +Now we need the Convenient Plot Device. This can be any number of disasters -- a car accident; getting lost outdoors in bad weather; an evil ex-boyfriend who threatens bodily harm. I'm sure you can think of others. It doesn't really matter what it is. What does matter is that one of our couple is effectively incapacitated. +If it is the heroine, it gives the hero a chance to explain what _really_ happened when she saw him with the evil ex. +If the hero is taken out, temporarily of course, it gives the heroine a chance to realise that she really does love him and she's being a fool (because, of course someone else -- the hero's family/friend -- has told her the truth but she refused to believe it). +Now we can have the Glorious Reunion, fanfares, angels singing (and here's the chance for a Second Sex Scene, if you so desire) and they can fade off into the blissful sunset, together forever. +The really good thing about Literotica is you can add extra little twists in here and there, leading up to the Big Romantic Events and have these turn up just at the end of each chapter, so that the reader is positively chomping at the bit to get to the next chapter and find out what happens. +Oh, and a quick word of warning -- try to at least make the time scale believable. +We don't want our feisty heroine falling head over heels, getting engaged, discovering the man of her dreams is a louse, bravely soldiering on with broken heart only to have major catastrophe and finally realise he is the man of her dreams and marrying him on the spot all in the space of a two week holiday. Even the most starry eyed of readers may find that a touch hard to swallow. +But, I hear you say, I've only given you the plot for one successful Literotica Romance. +No, I haven't. I've given you the plot outline for nearly every chaptered Literotica Romance (and most of Harlequin's as well) and the odd Novel. It is up to you to provide the fluffy detail that sets each one apart. +The other really good thing about Literotica is you can always write a sequel about how the happy ever after goes sour and he takes a mistress and she takes on the mailman, and put it in Loving Wives... +Or not." +928,Write Incest like a Mother Fucker,lovecraft68,How To,2014-12-19,2014-12-19,2022-01-04 08:42:48,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/write-incest-like-a-mother-fucker,How to rock Lit's most popular category the LC way.,"['Essay', 'How To', 'Incest', 'Incest Manual', 'Taboo Erotica', 'Writing Incest']",4.76,"_Author's Note; Welcome to my 100th submission to Literotica and my first in the How To category. Fair warning, this piece does not conform to the format of a 'true' how to, but is more like me conversing with you, the reader. Unconventional for this category, but I've always done things the way I want to, rather than the way I'm 'supposed to'. So this essay is simply some thoughts, observations and pointers to help write a successful story in the incest genre. One more note, this essay is dedicated to a fellow author and Author's hangout member. I don't have to name them, they know who they are. Enjoy, Lovecraft68_ +***** +Incest; a category that despite its controversial subject matter and legions of dedicated trolls is still far and away the most popular category on Literotica. If you are motivated by votes, comments, and moving up the favorite author list, Incest is the category that will ensure a huge response. If done properly. +What do I mean by properly? Because of its 'squicky' nature and association with jokes about rural south trailer parks there are many who denigrate the category saying the readership and authors are unintelligent and...trash. +It should be noted that many of these same people enjoy rape stories and tales of mythical creatures having sex with humans. A strange code of ethics some people have. Take a deep breath and say it with me. ""Your kink is okay, my kink is okay, her kink..."" +That stereotype is also unfounded. The reason many incest reader's comments seem semi literate to the eternally snarky is incest is a worldwide fetish and many readers are English as a second language. +Yet these individuals make the effort to reach out and comment to the best of their ability. So truth be told it's easy to see the ignorance lies on the other side, not 'our side' +Many of the readers I have corresponded with are well educated and professional and because of that there is an even bigger thrill from something they are not ""supposed"" to read which is why so many readers are anonymous in incest. Dirty little secrets are more fun when they're secret. +But due to that 'lowbrow' reputation many authors seem to think that simply replacing ""Gina's tits"" with ""Mommy's tits"" has now created a quality incest story. After all, just give the people their 'family fucking' and you have yourself a hit, right? Wrong. +Make no mistake, even a mediocre incest tale will get more attention than stories in many other categories, but there is a far cry from the two hundred or so votes and a dozen comments a stroke incest tale can receive- to go along with a score in the high three's to low 4 range- and a story that can go well over a thousand votes with dozens of comments and a much higher score. +Literotica is a free site. We authors are paid in votes, comments, favs and feedback, don't you want to get the biggest paycheck possible? Well if you do, then the trick is to realize incest is more than sis blowing you instead of Gina doing it. In my time here I have garnered a large following of readers and have enjoyed many successful stories in the incest genre. +But that's now. Like everyone else I started from scratch here with no fan base and writing what I hoped were stories people would like. As I have continued to write and experiment I have learned many do's and do not's of Incest. +A lot of the insight I have gained has come from corresponding with the readers and paying attention to what they say. So the first pointer I'd like to give is one that extends to every category; listen to your readers. +Not the trolls who tell you you're sick (because they are mad they just jacked off to your story) or to the ""Oh, my God, you're just the best ever"" because that is equally bogus and not useful at all. Trust me, you only wrote the best story ever until the next story they read. But in between there is good constructive feedback we can learn from. +Having said that; I have stated many times my stories are my babies and done my way. I hope for people to enjoy, but if they don't...it is not the end of my world. I care about sharing my vision and at times it is a popular one at times its not, but it's always mine. I mention this because there is a difference between hitting some sweet spots and selling out. +One of the great things about lit is you can either write to appeal to the masses or create your own style and they will find you. The latter is the case for me as I have written the same type of story from day one and as time has passed more and more readers have been drawn to it. +To date I have obtained a nice balance of writing what I want, but appealing to a large readership and so can you. +The tips I am about to give appeal, like everything else, to a certain faction of incest, not the entire genre. That faction, if not the biggest, is the most active when it comes to rewarding you, the author. +Why? Because you made the effort to tell a 'real' story and create characters they grow attached to and become passionate about. So passionate they are compelled to comment. +A well developed tale inspires people to think and tell you what they think. But a stroke story? Those are one handed reads and as soon as the reader Jacks or Jills off, they are done. Sometimes they get off before the end and will click off without voting. +So the things I am going to touch on are based on getting the reader to react to more than the sex and want to tell you about it. These little tricks and devices have given me great results and if you follow them you will have a much better chance of getting what we strive for here the; vaunted Red H and a full 'recent activity' page. +Before I go further-and since I am 'talking to the readers'- I am going to take a moment to answer the three questions I have been asked most in my four years of writing taboo tales here. Okay, they are questions two through four. Question number one still remains ""When are you going to fuck off and die, you sick prick?"" +The answer to that is only the good die young, so please, mister anonymous, don't get your hopes up. This writer of sinfully salacious sexy sister seductions and marvelous mommies mounting mischievous mama's...boys. (Yeah, I know, I ran out of M words. What do you want for free?) isn't going anywhere. +First question: Do I write my stories from experience? +No. I know the sexy response is to wax nostalgic on all the adventures I shared with my mom, but in reality, unless 'what the hell is the matter with you?' was mom speak for ""Hey baby, hop on."" There was no interest on her part. For me? I do admit to wanting to touch my mother inappropriately, but realized matricide is a crime. +I was however, many years ago, involved in what could best be described as a 'pseudo incestuous' relationship and hence my love of taboo erotica. +Second question and most frequently asked, okay sometimes asked. Alright, one reader who later admitted they were drunk and requested to have their e-mail retracted asked ""Why do you enjoy writing incest stories?"" +The answer to that question is the challenge. +Literotica has many categories, but if you remove Sci-fi/fantasy, Nonhuman and Erotic Horror-categories that by nature suspend reality- all other categories are fetishes and situations that can happen. +But incest? Incest, as we all know, is in reality, a disturbing situation and I believe both the authors here as well as the readers are aware of that and it's not what we are looking for. What are we looking for? We want incest Literotica style; Eighteen plus, fun, consensual sexy and romantic pairings between family members. +Now, how to justify it? First let me point out there are two types of stories here in any category. Stroke, which are stories designed to be one handed reads and others that make an effort to have some substance with their stroke. +There is an audience for both here, but stroke has it easy. When reading for masturbation, do you really care why mom decided to give her son a blow job, or why a formerly prudish sister bends over and begs her brother to fuck her? Nope, just go for the ride. +Now a story that is meant to be more than that? It's not an easy task to take such an implausible scenario and make the reader say, ""I could see that happening."" For me, that's the fun of writing these stories; to take something not only farfetched, but about the only thing our society still frowns upon, and have it seem real. +In every erotic story there is a moment where reality does take a back seat to porn absurdity, but it doesn't have to start that way and if an author can lay the ground work of believable characters in a unique situation that absurdity can blend in with the story itself and become rational. So I find writing these stories a difficult, yet rewarding, writing exercise. +The last question is one I have been asked by both experienced authors as well as newcomers is why do I feel my incest stories do well and how could they get theirs to be well received. Those e-mails are what inspired me to write this piece. +There's more than one answer to that question, one of which being to simply keep at it. The more stories you have the larger your readership becomes and the more positive votes you get. But you still have to gain those readers and the key is to write a certain way and be consistent with it to find more readers who share your vision of the genre. +I have built a reputation for writing long, detailed stories that focus on far more than just fucking, but the things that lead to that crossing of the line between siblings or parents and their adult offspring. On that note, it's time to get to the real point of this essay and that's the keys to writing a successful incest story on literotica. +I am going to preface the rest of this by repeating that on lit there is an audience for everything and there is no flat out right and wrong style of story to write. But what I have seen from both my own stories and others in the category leads me to believe that when trying to achieve the best possible score and get that recent activity page lit up like a Christmas tree, there are things that work far better than others. +Let's go back for moment to my comment about the misconception that incest readers are less intelligent or discerning than those of other categories. Unlike most genre's, authors do not write incest through experience, but more from fantasy. Yes, there are those that will go on and on about what they did with their family growing up and perhaps they did, but for the most part incest is a fantasy rather than 'deed' kink. +Because of that it adds to the challenge to write a convincing story as there is not a lot to base it on. If you've had group sex, you can write it, bi- sexual, BDSM...all things people can write from real events, but incest...not so much. The risk in those categories is obvious; if you've never done it and can't ""fake it"" you get caught with your pants down. +So there are authors here who feel they can easily put it past the 'less than' incest crowd and make a token effort and expect accolades for it. Sorry, but, no. Like any other genre the incest readership knows what it wants. +Taking a simple everyday porn premise and sticking in the buzz words of mom, sis, or daddy is not enough to create a truly memorable incest tale. Like all categories the incest readers know when the author is sincere or being disingenuous and simply posting copy paste efforts; throwing as much 'family' wordage in as possible because they are looking for some quick strike attention and votes. +What do I mean by that? Quite simply put those stories have no heart and believe it or not what drives a successful incest story is emotion. A son just fucking his mother is okay for some, but what the readers really crave is a four letter word. No not fuck, not even lust, but...love. +Despite the bad reputation the category has and its inherently disturbing nature, the incest crowd is a soft fun loving bunch. They are romantics at heart; it's just a strange kind of romance. But that doesn't mean a story where little sister says ""I love you"" after her four brothers gang bang her, achieves that, again...you need to mean it and make them feel you mean it. +So let's walk through the steps to accomplishing your incestuous masterpiece and then we will address the all important detail of ""Incest romance"" Now the following can apply to any incest 'pairing', but as it progresses my examples are going to lean more towards mother son as it's the biggest sub category within incest, but again it's all plug and play with any story, you want to write. +First, your title. This will sound like a no brainer, but sometimes obvious things are what we miss. Whatever the 'pairing' is, make use of it in your title and your tag line. Mother/son stories should have mom in the title. +Mother works, mommy works, but I feel Mom is the best term to use, but that's subjective, the use of it should not be. The readers are browsing a list of stories and you need to tell them, ""Hey, here is what you want."" +I learned this right off the bat. My first mother/son story here was called ""Weekends with Laura"" the score on it is fairly good, but the votes and comments way below the norm. Why? Because who the hell is Laura? Why is Laura in incest? The reader would assume if it's in the category that she would have to be a mom or sis, but why make them think and chance them wandering away? +Now fortunately for me, it was not a total loss as my tag line read ""Kevin loves older women, especially his mother"" so if they got past the title they saw what I was writing about. So putting your buzz word in a title is big if you want to get your story clicked on. +As for your tag line; like any other story, a description, but also the ""other half"" of your taboo coupling. I missed that in my example ""Kevin"" who is good old Kev? The son...but again, call it out! People don't search by names they search by ""mom, son, dad"" +Also important in the tag line is a nice hook, a tease, a little flair. +Title ""Mom will do anything."" Tag line ""Desperate mother agrees to a porn shoot...with her son!"" read that out loud with the pause and in a shocked tone, ""With her son!"" Yes, cheesy, but this is the thrill they are looking for, so don't roll your eyes, just go for it. +Another thing to keep in mind is if your story is not straight up mother/son and you are going to introduce another kink, make sure your title and tag calls it out. +The reason is twofold. You want to draw people who also like that kink and may give your story a look because of it, but more importantly if that kink turns someone off you would rather them be forewarned and not read it than give you a bomb. +Title ""Mom is bound to Please"" Tag line ""Anna's bondage fantasies are fulfilled, by her son."" Note that bondage is called out in title and description and ""By her son"", again the shocking taboo disclaimer. +Titles can be ""stroky"" or ""serious"" and I don' think either will affect a reader clicking. However there is a fine line. ""Mom loves to Suck"" is pretty ""porno"" but in a fun way and it could still be a ""story"" now ""Gangbanging my mother's ass"" is going cause people who enjoy the aforementioned ""Love"" to give an eye roll and wander off. +Now that we have our catchy and to the point title and tag, let's get to some of the things incest readers enjoy or do not enjoy. +The number one no-no in incest is non consent. No added element to an incest story will get you flamed as much as non consent will. Why? My personal theory is we all know real life incest is molestation, abuse and rape because it's generally done to under age children and by older relatives. Incest readers know that and they are defensive of the category because that's what the ""real world"" associates their kink with. +So when it shows up here, they get upset. Incest readers want their family encounters to be a consensual, fluffy, clean dirty fun; a good time had by all and of course...romantic. Happily Ever After rules in incest as much as romance. +Rough sex is something that's frowned upon, even consensually. This was taught to me by how small the readership was for my Siblings with Benefits series which featured rough sex and hardcore BDSM. +The series did well score wise, but while stories like ""Oh, sis fuck me"" were getting 300 votes, SWB was getting 75. This was driven home by a comment that to this day makes me laugh ""Good sir that is no way for a loving brother to treat his beautiful big sister!"" +Now that comment is funny, but informative. Look at his wording ""loving brother, beautiful sister"" that's what the readership wants! +They want happy sweet couplings, they can be raunchy and dirty, mom/sis can act and talk like porn stars, but there has to be that emotion behind it to give them the best of both worlds and it also adds that ""consent"" and safe feeling that these stories are not the abuse of true incest. +Depressing storylines are also not as well received (see author LaRascasse for well written but depressing examples) All of my mother son stories range from the high 4.6's into the 4.8's except for one which lingers around 4.5. +That story ""Mama's Boy"" was lower voted because the storyline features an abusive alcoholic who mistreats his wife and son. So although I stress write what you wish, be aware these stories will not see top numbers. +The next 'dislikes' I am going to give are subjective, because again, there is something for everyone. So these ideas are not ones that will necessarily get you flamed, but are only for a certain faction and the point of this is taking the sweet spots over the some like it some don't. +Family orgy incest. Not everyone is into this and it takes the already implausible and throws it into absurdity. Having the entire family hopping on comes across as pure stroke. Although an entire family can love each other they are not going to 'fall in love' with each other. +So the romance ticket is out the door with your plausibility, the taboo is gone because if the whole family is doing it, who cares? And that means there is no conflict and no threat of being caught and punished. Will some love it, of course, but a lot of readers will pass it by. +Involving others: Another 'faction' aspect. The people who are into the type of story I am discussing are protective of the taboo love affair going on between the family members. +This is a lot stronger instinct in brother/sister. They don't want sis having any cock but their brothers and the other way around. It ruins the fantasy 'loving relationship' come on people, we all know it's wrong to cheat on your sister! +It is worth noting that in mom/son many are fine with dad still being in the mix with mom to add an element of sneaking around and conflict and guilt that mom is sleeping with both(note, not talking about the strokers; they want both doing her at once, I know cause...well I wrote one. +Hangs head in shame) But seeing dad is dad and he was there first its okay...now have mom have a boyfriend she is tagging when not with her son...prepare to be bombed. +When it comes to daddy/daughter the rule of thumb is stories where the daughter is the aggressor are better received than the father seducing the daughter. The reasoning for this is a dubious double standard. +Mom seducing son? Just fine, just a hot cougar who happens to be related to her cub. But dad after the daughter comes with some rape connotations even if the author is writing full consent. It may not get you trolled, but it will score a bit lower than daughter being hot for daddy. +Now for the ""Do's"" First and foremost dialogue. What are we reading for in this category? It's not to hear, ""Oh, Susan, please..."" its ""Oh, mom, please..."" make use of your buzz words in your dialogue and your narrative. +Work the incest angle, use mom, sis, daddy, little brother, big brother and use them as often as you can, but do not beat them like a dead horse. If you have three mom's in a sentence odds are you're abusing the angle. +I know this sounds contradictory to my point of 'you can't just paste in the word sis and have a good story' but if you write the rest of your story in the manner we are discussing it will be fine, because there will be much more involved than just those words. +What will be involved to add heat to just another cookie cutter story of hey, look sis is sucking her brother's dick? The answer is the second most important key ingredient to a popular incest story; conflict. +Incest is a taboo, it is a line we are told we should never cross. When two members of a family commit incest, they are tasting the forbidden fruit. That angle is one never focused on in many stories. If siblings are fucking one thousand words into a story you're doing it wrong because we are not talking stroke here. +The crossing of that line should not be jumped into; the reader should be led into it through the eyes of the character. Let's use the example of a son desiring his mother. How did he come about desiring her? What event led him from seeing his mom as the woman who raised him to a sexual woman he now lusts after? +That event could be the finding of some racy pictures or videos of his mother, somehow seeing her perform a sexual act, her becoming drunk and perhaps saying or doing some slightly inappropriate things, something just off color enough to get the son thinking in ways he shouldn't. +A popular device in these stories is dad out of the picture and the son becoming the man of the house. Mom is lonely, sad, the son thinks she should be happy, somewhere the wires cross and he decides he should be the man to take care of his mom in every way, after all, who could love a woman more than her son? +Now that last line? That is a score. That is the type of thought, or dialogue from a son that grabs the reader, that makes them nod and say, ""Oh, yes!"" +Flip it around? Who better to take care of a young man than his loving mother? What other woman could be so good to him? +Once you have decided upon the event that gets the ball rolling we are now ready for some realism in the form of guilt. When you write about Tommy watching mom bending over and he's checking out her ass, don't just leave it at him thinking ""nice ass"" or getting a hard on. Put some turmoil in there, this is his mom! Tommy should be thinking, ""Nice ass? What's wrong with me, this is my mother!"" +There should be some resistance to the attraction, a hesitation and concern over his feelings. Have him jerk off to his mother then lay there ashamed of himself for seeing his mother in such a dirty way. +Have him make an effort to stop seeing her that way. He tries, but he can't! When Tommy sees mom, he's like a dieter looking at a double cheeseburger. You know it's not right, know you can't have it, but oh, how you want to taste it! +This builds the heat; each conflicted thought whets the reader's appetite for what's to come. They know he is going to get mom because this is incest, but they don't need to know when or how. So tease them along and have them hot and horny long before the main event occurs. +Now we're ready for Tommy to take a bite of that cheeseburger...but wait! There's more! We can't have Tommy just say, ""Mom, I want you and ""Oh, Tommy I've been waiting!"" we have to do some more teasing in the form of some...conversation. +It's confession time. Whether mom catches Tommy with some mother son porn, checking her out, talking in his sleep, copping a feel... get them to be looking eye to eye and Tommy owning up to his feelings. Have him admit it-and again, conflict- he is embarrassed and ashamed of his feelings, so some blushing, stuttering, a good old, ""Mom, I'm so sorry"" +Mom says, ""What the hell is wrong with you?"" Oh, wait, sorry, that was my mom again. +So mom...from here it's your call. Has mom known all along and has been waiting for him to make the first move? Is she appalled at first? If she is that's when Tommy starts laying it on thick, ""Mom, you're so beautiful and I love you and...and I know I shouldn't be thinking like this, but I want to see you happy and I know I can make you happy in every way."" +As an aside the above would make a good hallmark card for Mother's day...just saying. +So now mom...okay, look, at some point in even the most well done realistic tale we need to admit we are writing erotica and some good old fashioned Bum chika wa wa seventies porn music kicks in and we delve into porn absurdity because of course mom is going to give in. +She could give in because she's wanted it, she can try the ""I'll let him start and when he sees it wrong he'll quit and realize...oh, I like this or anything you want. But again, build it, let them talk it out, let them experience Tommy's emotions. +He's scared at first, ashamed, then hopeful. Mom hasn't kicked him in the balls or dialed 911 and threatened to take him to a shrink, she's listening, she's...talking, she's...does she want it to? +Of course she does or there wouldn't be a story so there should be no suspense, but there is because you have done such a masterful job the reader is hanging on every word and squirming the entire time because they know they are so close to our hero breaking the ice with mommy dearest. +Now when we start, we start slow...kissing. Kissing is so important here. Whether , it's Tommy and mommy or daddy and his little girl, that first kiss, a lover's kiss to a family member needs to be focused on. +Tentative at first, nervous, this isn't right, but...oh, her lips and that tongue, a soft whimper and the slow awkward kiss that you work into a deep passionate filled make out session. Take your time with this; it gets the reader ready to blow before you've even gotten anyone naked. +Touching. During this kiss the hands need to wander, through their hair, down their backs, maybe a grope...but again slowly. We want a slow burn before we turn it into an all out wildfire. Keep playing the nerves, trembling fingers, pounding hearts, conflicting emotions, ""I can't, we can't, oh, the hell we can't!"" +The reader is getting ready to pop, but you're not letting them just yet, but this is a good tease because they, like your characters, are so close! Why? Because you my friend, have got them worked into a frenzy of anticipation. +Undressing...No ripping off of clothing, slow and sensual. During your deep kiss and slow touching, that touching leads to pants being unsnapped, hands slid into them, skirts being lifted, blouses unbuttoned. +Now when mom steps back and starts stripping, or Tommy removes her bra (pop quiz, how does he do it? If you answered with trembling fingers you were correct, if you answered he couldn't get it undone because guys suck at that, you answered honestly!) +But when mom's breasts are exposed, this is a big moment so make use of it. Tommy is seeing his mother's breasts for first time and you need to describe his amazement and his lust. +All the above this is where your buzzwords come back into play as well as reminding the reader that all this is a big no-no! When mom takes her bra off, let Tommy be ""transfixed by the sight of my mother's breasts"" ""A feeling of the surreal came over me, was my mother really here in front of me, on her knees and ready to give her son a blow job?"" +Most of all, and it is worth repeating, let Tommy be overwhelmed at how sexy his mother really is, the reader will be doing it right along with him because you have turned that reader into Tommy. For the duration of the story this is what he has desired, struggled over, and is finally about to receive...his mother! +When the sexual acts have begun-and I am not going to give a blow by blow -yup, meant to say that-of those acts. We all know how to write sex scenes so the only thing I will stress is keeping that dream like feeling to the scene, the ""I can't believe this is happening"" sense of wonder. +As for 'who rides who at the end of the race' In sibling stories I feel it works just as well either way to have one sibling be the more experienced lover, or the less nervous more enthusiastic one. +For father/daughter pairings, as discussed the little princess should initiate, but once she does dad taking over or daughter remaining the surprising little sex kitten can go either way, because of the nature of that pairing. +For mother son, which is what I have focused on in my story example, the mom should be in control. Why is that? Because what this becomes in a sense is a milf acting as a cougar with her cub. Mom is an older sexually experienced woman, who many times in these tales is alone and pent up. A son is not going to overwhelm his mother sexually, nor would he try. +Remember this little realistic detail mixed with our fantasy porn: He is her son. As much as he has lusted for her, this is mom and he is conditioned to obey-and most importantly-respect mom. +For me, it works best that mom takes the lead and her son happily defers to the fact she is not just mom, but a more experienced lover. Also in our romantic angle, what does he want? To make mom happy, so he is simply pleased to please her. +A parent would be inclined to guide their child. Mom knows he is nervous and wants him to enjoy and be pleased with and by her and will know that better time-for the first time-will come from her experience as a lover as well as the tenderness of a mother (another Hallmark moment in the works there) +Now when I say control I am not speaking of anything dominant and submissive, but simply along the lines of, ""Okay, baby, now you just sit back and let your mother enjoy her son's beautiful cock"" +This is where you can either have mom be a somewhat sweet lover and a nice slow sensual encounter or now that she is in a no turning back situation turn into a candidate for the milf hunter web site. For me, I go with mom getting down and dirty. +We have teased the reader long enough and it's time to turn this thing up to eleven. Dirty talk combined with your buzzwords are a powerful combination, ""How's mommy look sucking your cock?"" ""Oh, look at you, licking your mother's pussy."" Remember, mom is now in the heat of the moment and has needed a good hard fucking for a long time. +Even if mom has been portrayed as prudish or sweet, she has succumbed to the biggest taboo there is, lusting for her son, so turning 'slutty' is not far stretch compared to that fact, in a sense she is caught up in a dirty act that brings out that bad girl side, simply put, mom is sex drunk (is that real term...I don't know, but I have been there and the hangover can be even better) if you still struggle with that, refer to ""Ba chika wa wa"" and know we are giving the reader what they want. +Why? Oh I will tell you...because even the people who eat up the romance want the dirty fucking. Best of both worlds, a hot as hell fuck with the most loving woman a son could find! +Not to mention that slow burn you have put them through now being taken into a hardcore scene causes one hell of a release for the reader, makes it worth the wait. +As they move around the world (use a lot of positions, Tommy should see his mother from every angle) continue with the taboo wording, ""I inhaled and moaned softly at the forbidden scent of my mother's pussy."" +Or ""Mom spread her legs and I licked my lips at the sight of mom's...pussy, I was staring at my mother's pussy!"" Lust, disbelief and a reminder 'this shit ain't right!' +Like dialogue, these thoughts and feelings should be exploited as much as you feel you can get away with it while not getting redundant. Another plot device that has worked well for me is tossing in some humor. Not just some of the bad one liners I use during the story in dialogue, but something during the sex, that's funny, but family oriented. +""Hmm, this looks good,"" Mom paused, her lips parted, her breath hot on my straining cock. ""This all for me?"" she flicked her tongue lightly over my purple head and I whimpered, +""Please, don't tease, mom, please!"" +""Please? Wow, someone raised you right!"" +Or +Mom looked down at the cum dripping down my cock and sighed, ""Even now, I still have to clean up after you"" +One more. +Her tongue sliding along the length of my cock, mom gathered her hair and handed it to me to keep it out of her face. ""You can hold it, but don't pull on it. I am your mother after all"" +Little things like that add a fun dimension to the encounter because end of the day sex should be about fun and it shows how comfortable our new incestuous couple is. Mom is not just having sex with her son, but it's playful! +I am going to briefly mention the end to the scene, the ""money shot"". Now mom can continue her porn star audition and take a load to the face, her tits, all over her back. Or it could be inside, but you don't want to do that yet and we will soon get to why. +Now that mom and son have consummated their forbidden desire and established they are most likely going to hell, but are going to enjoy the ride. Seriously, because it's time for a little...""Oh, my God did we really just do that! No real regret, but a moment of holy shit! +But from holy shit it's time to mix in that all important main ingredient for our oedipal (or other coupling) cocktail; Love, baby, nothing but love for ya! +Tommy was not only lusting after mom, but also wanting to love her and during the build up and sex we did not include just fucking and sucking, but kissing and touching and that, ""She felt so good in his arms"" description. +Tommy now knows what it's like to have her as a woman sexually, but now the smoke has cleared and our shocked, but satisfied, couple is going to go to sleep, but not before they profess their love and desire to build that love, to not let this be a onetime thing, but to enjoy each other and take care of each other in every way! Pardon me while I wipe my eyes. +So the end? Not if you're smart my taboo Jedi, because...well mom and son, bro/sis dad/daughter have not made love yet! The ultimate conclusion to our HEA fantasy is a nice sweet lovemaking scene-better to leave this one fairly short compared to a long detailed fuck scene. Nice and easy and romantic, does the trick here. +Tommy awakes and his initial thought is, 'was that a dream?' Hell no, because his face smells like mom's pussy and...Mom is right there in his/her bed with him! This is where you focus on just how good mom feels in that oft mentioned ""every way"" +Let him focus on his mother lying in his embrace, her face on his chest, breasts pressed against his side, her long soft leg draped over his. His hand is on her back, and he can feel her slow deep breaths, her hair is in his face and she looks so peaceful, so satisfied, Tommy pulled her closer to him and feels a wave of emotion come over him as he holds his mother as a lover, not a son... +Okay, hold on, have to adjust something...okay, the fonts are changed. What did you perverts think I was doing? +But that example is what the readership craves, they eat it up. Mom and son, Brother and sister, daddy and his little girl, not just in lust, but falling into a taboo love, breaking the rules of God and man and loving the one person in the world they are told they shouldn't love in that way. +Stories that end with our sinful couple covered in sweat, still breathing hard from their passion, professing their love and how even though it was wrong nothing has ever felt so right. +Back to the star of our show, Tommy is getting a little misty, but something else is waking up too, because he starts thinking of mom's moist pussy pressing into his leg and those hard nipples against him. Mom stirs and looks up at him. They share a long deep kiss and Mom's hand strays between his legs. Tommy's ready (because no one in porn ever has to pee or can't get it up) +From here, I enjoy mom rolling over on top of him, but moving slowly and sensually not riding like a cowboy like she did previously. Her arms slip beneath his and they kiss as she remains on top. +Tommy rolls them over and they make slow sweet love. But not so sweet that we are not using ""Mom sighed contentedly as she wrapped her legs around me, pulling me deeper into her taboo embrace"" +This is where Tommy, who is feeling his mother's heart as much as her body, continues to make love to his mother until he comes deep inside of her. This is why the 'dirty scene' ends in a nice cumshot somewhere, because we saved the best for last. +Yes facials are fun and dirty, but the ultimate thrill, the best way to finish a story is with Son/brother/Dad filling his partner with his cum(I will die before I use essence... you know who you are...:)) And do make sure that mom/sis/daughter moan and whimper at how good it feels to have that forbidden fluid filling them. +End with them still wrapped in each other's embrace and promising the reader this is how they will remain and...you have yourself the makings of successful incest story. +I hope you found this essay informative and if you want some proof as to the success of these stories look at the works of Alwayswwantedtoo, TX Tall tales and although he is not prolific, no author has ever penned better sibling romance than Paco Fear and his iconic stories Words on Skin, Stolen kisses and Macallan Promises. +A look at my own page here will also show you the style I have developed in this category has gained proven results. More so, although this essay focused on incest all the points I made-except the buzzwords-can be used in any genre. +My stories in other categories are mostly written along the same lines of conflict, emotion and a nice slow burn before the characters reach the climactic encounter we ultimately read erotica for. +Many readers across the board enjoy a good story and 'real' characters and if you give them that, they will reward you where it counts; votes, comments and most importantly selecting you as a ""favorite author"". +I want to take a moment to thank the readership of Litertoica. When I came here four years ago I was unsure if people would enjoy my style. +Even during the dark and somewhat infamous Siblings with Benefits series, people seemed drawn to my different concepts and visions and once I finished SWB and began experimenting in other categories and getting deeper into the incest genre, more and more people e-mailed me, encouraging my work and asking for more. +That encouragement has kept me writing and recently helped see me through some dark times in life. Last month I reached 4000 favorites, a number I would have never thought possible back in May 2010 when I released ""Almost Perfect"" (which was far from perfect). +So to close this out I want to say thank you to my longtime readers and new fans alike, as well as the authors who encouraged and advised me. Your support has kept me writing. So thank you my friends; your past and continued support is deeply appreciated. ***** + _Author's note: The holidays are quickly approaching so just a quick note to wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season.

What if music caused you to see auras around people? +The phenomenon that is synaesthesia comes in so many forms that some experts in the field believe that we all experience a level of it. Misophonia - the disorder that causes sounds to cause feelings of stress, agitation, fear, and anger - is becoming more prominent with the rise in depressive and anxiety disorders. This disorder, although not yet classed as a form of Synaesthesia, is still suspected of being so. +But although we each experience instances similar to these examples, by the power of association and familiarity we react voluntarily. Sometimes we have difficulty controlling our voluntary reactions, and unless the colour red is going to turn you into a raging bull, I don't think we need to worry about becoming incontrollable beasts because of the sensory input that we're bombarded with on a daily basis. +It's a highly fascinating subject to get involved in, and it was the basis behind a series of creative exercises that I designed over the past half a year, to help people to unlock memory and creative potential, but also to seek a different way of thinking. I probably should have expected that it would also lead to new styles of writing for some of those who took part; myself included. +The human senses are a wonderful thing, aren't they? Where would we be without the ability to see dog shit before we can smell it underfoot? +Okay I'll look for a more pleasant approach... +The human senses are a wonderful thing, aren't they? They really allow us to enjoy the simpler things in life, like the smell of fresh air and burnt ozone after a thunderstorm, or fresh cut grass on a sunny day. The way smell rises with heat, and you wake up to the smell of bacon suspended in the still air of your bedroom on a Saturday morning; it sort of rouses you with a hunger for the day itself. +The sound of birds chirping, music playing, fire crackling, water running along a peaceful stream, it makes this savage world beautiful. Just one sense alone can turn a life of shit into a divine work of art. +And of course we have our eyesight, with which we can see colours, textures, light and illusions. We have the power of touch, and I don't think I need to tell you the things that touch can do to us - not here of all places. And let's not forget both the immense pleasure and disgust that taste can cause. +Without our senses, I doubt we'd be here. They're as preservational as they are pleasurable. But it's easy to take them for granted, especially in the modern day metropolis where all of our senses are constantly bombarded with experiences that vary in distinction and quality. More often than not, we're now experiencing quantity over quality. +We often switch off to avoid confusion, with so much info bouncing around (and little of it useful at all) - an undeniable contributing factor for the continual rise of social anxiety - and we go from living in a perpetual echo chamber of sensory input, into a state of self-imposed sensory deprivation. +The result: our sentinel intelligence becomes mute. Other senses may even suffer for the lack of their observational partners. Still, we don't try harder to compensate for the senses we dull, because we don't want to be bombarded by so many experiences at once. +If only we could concentrate on one sense at a time. You'll be surprised how everything comes alive, what the arousal of a single sense can do for the human mind. And this is the basis for my exercise. +So when, dear reader, was it last that you consciously exercised your individual senses? +2 +SMELL THERAPY +Aromatherapy traditionally involves the use of aromatic plant extracts and essential oils for healing practices and cosmetic improvements. It isn't restricted to flowers and oils. Incense is a commonly enjoyed form of aromatherapy the world over, and not just to hide the stink of weed in teenagers' bedrooms. And beyond aromatherapy, everybody has a favourite smell and a reason behind it! +Of course maybe the very use of the word Aromatherapy for this exercise is not totally definitive. The only use of aromas here is to trigger memory, emotion, and imagination. If the use of a certain aroma triggers the need to arouse another sense, then I would suggest you go with it, so long as it doesn't run the risk of arrest and imprisonment... +Don't know why I felt the need to add that, but there you go. Just in case, I suppose. +The object of the following writing exercise, if you choose to give it a go, is to try to associate as much as you can with a single aroma. If you have a friend or a significant other who would like to join you in this exercise, that'd be even better. When people feel the need to explain in depth what they associate with a smell and maybe why, it ups the ante for more provocative thought. +It could be that any one thing you choose for its aroma evokes thoughts of something that seems completely unrelated, but isn't that where your creativity finds greater challenge? +3 +AN EXAMPLE +The last time I partook in this writing exercise I had at my side a cotton wool pad laced with pine oil. A particularly pungent scent, pine oil at first bears the scent of the tree it's derived from, but when your sense of smell becomes accustomed to it, and all the while roused by it, you begin to smell undertones of other things. +I found myself associating also with the strong odour of dirt, heat and sweat, making me think of saw mills and soldiers climbing mountains in the heat of late springtime. I smelled decay which made me think of abandonment and nature's savage and deadly cycle. +In the end I wrote a poem about the end of wartime, when violence and industry recedes and nature consumes all once again. It was pretty dramatic but with an air of acceptance and peace. It not only related to what I could smell and the feelings that sense evoked, but also the shapes and textures of the human machine versus immortal nature's silent and stealthy explosions of life where there seemed none left. +Even if I wasn't anywhere specifically in memory, the aid of that one sense alone carried me. I wrote with little trouble, but with a great hunger for adventure. +4 +EXERCISE +Take yourself a pen and a piece of paper so that you can write down whatever springs to mind. Maybe it'll be a small list of single words, or maybe a list of descriptions. It doesn't matter how you do it. The first part is essentially just morse code! +I highly recommend getting yourself a bottle of aromatic oil. There are so many to choose from and they're relatively inexpensive for what they are. But of course you don't have to, because anything with a strong smell that you can have to hand, you can use. +Maybe you have some spices in the kitchen that you could sniff at all day long and never get tired of. I feel the same way about cinnamon. Tea and coffee also have a special place in my heart, as does petrol for some strange reason. +Orange peel, dried lavender, leather, fresh cut wood chips, a clean ironed item of clothing - the ball is in your court as to what you choose to smell for this exercise. Take it to your table and study its smell. Close your eyes and let come what will come. What does your sense of smell evoke? Write it down... +How does it make you feel? What does it make you want to do? Where does it take you? Does it evoke a person you once knew, or a character? +It could be that you come up with a multitude of things, triggering more than just memories, or feelings, but a whole world up there in your head that you hadn't considered. Or maybe there's a seemingly simple memory that brings its own emotional baggage. +Keep sniffing whatever it is that you're sniffing. But please don't get too high. You need to be sharp for this, and I think you'll find that as your senses and your sensibilities come alive with the experience, so will you. +Next you're going to take fifteen minutes to half an hour to write whatever comes. You should find it easy to just go with the flow and to let whatever is being written write itself. These things do take over. They just need a little help along the way. +If you stall, take another dose and keep at it. No matter if you don't finish by the end of your writing session, pay attention to what you have written and see what's different about it to what you might normally have done. +This compulsive approach to creative writing is a great little exercise, plenty of fun, and lets your inner creator put the perfectionist ego on the back shelf for a while. I certainly benefited from that, as I'm very conscious of what I write for the sake of entertainment, to the point where I often spend too long, in vain, trying to cater for some projected audience that doesn't necessarily exist; or if it does, one that judges more than the audience that I have acquired so far. +Good luck, have fun, and don't try too hard. Follow your intuition and your instincts, or in this case, simply follow your nose and see where it leads you! +5 +CONCLUSION +What does the sense of smell have to do with creativity, do you suppose? I'd like to hear your thoughts after you've tried this exercise. Personally, as a man for whom environment and atmosphere are important, my sense of smell stands for many things. +I'm grounded by my sense of smell. It has emotional weight as well as the ability to be tantalised and aroused. When I smell something bad, I show not only distaste but sometimes even wonder if I smell danger or uncleanliness. Smell provides identity to people and places. +As far as fantasy goes, any fictional world you create is not just a moving picture with sound. It has dimensions and one of those dimensions is smell, which allows your readers to relate and to bring the story to life via their own personal connotations. +And as you may well have discovered here, you can write a whole story based on a single sense, without it having anything to do with the context; in fact without having done anything other than providing an open door into your own mind. +I know, we forget so easily what's up there sometimes! + +" +930,Writing a lot: Helpful Strategies,Ormond1799,How To,2020-10-24,2020-10-24,2022-01-04 08:42:52,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/writing-a-lot-helpful-strategies,Here you'll find various useful tips for writing a lot.,"['Authors', 'Editing', 'Revision', 'Writing', 'Writing Help', 'Writing Tips']",4.69,"Introduction +Authors frequently confront the challenge of generating written material. The challenge of generating hundreds or thousands of words represents one of the most exasperating aspects of the entire writing process. Writers of all levels, no matter if they're novices or experienced writers, must find ways to work through the difficulties of writing. In the essay that follows, I offer advice on writing a lot. The advice readers find below falls into in one of two categories. The first category represents small changes in approach that may aid writers in generating written content. The second category represents larger changes, often reflecting an alteration in how we think, write, and approach the writing process. These strategies, whether big or small, may require a change in the philosophy of your writing work. The advice below reflects my many years of personal and professional writing, teaching writing, and thinking about the scholarship of writing pedagogy. Hopefully, readers will find useful advice below. However, remember that writing represents a complex manifestation of the writer's approach, experience, and thinking; there can be no one-size fits all guide. In short, feel free to adapt or ignore any of the ideas below. +Ignore the myth of the author as artistic figure +Many writers, especially new writers, often find themselves embracing the idea that they can only write during moments of spontaneous inspiration. The focus on spontaneous inspiration largely derives from our modern understanding of the writer as a creative figure. The inspiration phenomenon derives largely from Romanticism, a literary movement where many writers fashioned themselves as sensitive creatives inspired by the world around them. The poets Wordsworth and Coleridge can write something like ""poetry is the spontaneous overflow of emotion,"" but at the end of the day, both of them needed to eat. Writing, whether done for a living or a hobby, is labor. +Writing is thinking +Writing and thinking are inseparable. When we write, whether at a keyboard or on a notepad, we're demanding our brains engage in parsing ideas and drawing on words in an attempt to put nascent ideas on paper. We can't isolate writing from thinking, and that is why the process of writing can be a difficult one. Again, writing (and the associated thinking) represents work. Sure, it isn't like doing landscape work or spending eight hours in a hot kitchen; writing is a different kind of work, but it is still taxing, and in the process we ask a lot of ourselves. If you're experiencing writer's block, then consider that maybe you're asking too much of yourself. Sometimes the brain just can't do words; in no way is writer's block a creative failing. Go do something else for a while. Maybe consider coming back to your writing the next day. +Writing is a process +If we allow ourselves to understand that writing exists as a process consisting of distinct concrete steps, then we can remove pressures inhibiting our writing. We all want to write a lot. However, many writers face difficulties getting words on the page. Writing struggles often lack any connection to a writer's skill or creativity. Are you some one that must create a perfect sentence? Maybe go back and edit a sentence repeatedly before moving on to the next sentence? Perhaps you can't stop yourself from hitting delete repeatedly. We can minimize many of these issues by embracing the idea of writing as a process. +What goes into writing as a process? Generally, the writing process includes three distinct areas. First, is pre-writing. Think of pre-writing as anything coming before the actual process of sitting down to write. Writers in the pre- writing stage might think about their ideas, approaches, or establishing new concepts. Pre-writing might include drafting an outline, a storyboard, a story map, or creating character dossiers. Pre-writing can occur anywhere or any time. Talking yourself through an idea while lathering your hair in the shower? That's pre-writing. Anything that you do to establish ideas or prepare yourself to write falls under pre-writing, including any reading or additional research that you might do ahead of writing. +The actual act of writing represents the second stage of the writing process. I'll say more about writing later. Revision marks the last part of the writing process. Writers in the revision stage focus on considering their text as a whole, making significant changes focusing on what are called higher order concerns. High order concerns consist of the larger aspects of our writing: organization, story structure, plot development, character development, and so on. Think of higher order concerns as the kind of changes that would make significant alterations to a piece of writing. Lower order concerns consists of everything else, generally all those things we associate with editing: word choice, grammar, fixing typos, and other small details. These details are lower order because they largely don't matter when revising and making major changes. A disorganized mess of writing is still a disorganized mess of writing, even if the grammar is perfect. +What is the takeaway here? If we recognize our writing as consisting of a process, then we free ourselves to throw words down on the page. It doesn't matter if they're good words or strings of bad sentences. It doesn't matter if things are far from perfect. We're throwing things down on the page because we know that we can come back to this writing and make meaningful changes to our work. Writing as a process might be a difficult sell for those of us married to the idea of creativity and the creation of some seemingly divinely-inspired piece of writing. Again, remember to kill off the idea of the writer as infallible artist figure. Don't get trapped in a myth. Even Jack Kerouac revised On the Road for publication; a reader only needs to compare the scroll version of the novel versus the published version. +Actually writing a lot +Below you'll find various tips and approaches to help you write a lot. Some of the advice represents small things you can do, while others represent, perhaps, significant changes to how you might approach the act of writing. +Productive writers don't always write a lot, but they write consistently +Writing consistently is the hallmark of a productive writer. By writing consistently, maybe every day or every other day, we get into a habit as writers. When we write consistently we move our word count along, regardless of the number of words written. Writing consistently not only develops pages of writing, it may help in alleviating writer's block, tamp down our writing dread, or address many of our other writing hang-ups. One useful aspect of writing consistently is that doing so removes feelings of ""what the hell am I doing here?"" that might come along with long absences from our writing sessions. +Set aside time to write and use a timer +Giving yourself dedicate writing time during the day can help you generate pages. The time you set aside doesn't have to be hours and hours of writing time. Committing ourselves to many hours of writing represents a one-way ticket to burnout. Plus, setting unreachable goals turns writing into an even larger chore. We want to remove anxiety from our writing process, not make it worse. Making time to write also helps remove much of the pressure that comes from the act of writing, too. Consider setting a timer for 15 to 20 minutes. Commit yourself to writing actively during those 15 to 20 minutes. Stick to this time frame- whether the words flow easily or you find that your writing is like pulling glitter from molasses- stick to the timer. If you find yourself in a writing groove, then consider adding another 15 minutes of writing. By using this timed approach we're looking to consistently fill our writing time, but not overdo it. Remember: writing is work. The act of writing taxes our body and mind. Take a break. Do something else. Work in a few of these 15-20 minute writing sessions each day, if you want. Remember, though, one session is enough to reach our goal of writing consistently and generating a lot of words. +I'm a fan of the 15 to 20 minute timeframe because it is a practical, realistic, and manageable goal. Many of us can consistently find 15 to 20 minutes each day. It is a luxury when writers find themselves with one-hour writing blocks, let alone blocks of two or three hours. We're more likely to encounter serval gaps of 15 to 20 minutes in our day, as opposed to larger time frames. And that is okay. We're aiming to maximize our time and write consistently, not prove that we are writing machines. +Keep writing +Aim to keep writing during the time you dedicate to your writing. A significant body of research and scholarship suggests a strong connection between the physical act of writing and the mental process of writing. Get words down on the page; it doesn't matter if they're good or bad. Just get the words on paper. If you're at a keyboard, then keep your fingers moving. Consider moving into free-writing if you get stuck; throw whatever your brain produces on to the page. If you're writing by hand and get stuck, then try drawing loops across the page. Keep that physical act of moving your fingers and hands going, even though you might not generate any actual words on the page. Consider switching to writing with pen and paper if you're someone that usual writes on a keyboard. The pen and paper approach is useful if you're also prone to smashing the backspace key. +Let go of bad writing advice +We all have aspects of our writing we find frustrating. These frustrations often find their root in something someone told us about our writing. Many of these writing struggles are also tied to bad prescriptive guides and rules about writing. Most of these rules exist because someone thought their ideas were right and worth writing down. +Have you been told you're wordy? Have too many run on sentences? Poor grammar? Repetitive word use? Many of us likely experienced such criticisms during our writing lives. Ignore those hang-ups, especially as you write. +Here are two major reasons why you should ignore these criticisms as you write. First, in most cases, these hang-ups about our writing are often just wrong. Ignore these concerns and focus on writing. Second, many of these hang- ups are rooted in lower order concerns. Remember, lower order concerns are the small aspects of our writing, like grammar. You likely noticed that many of these common hang-ups listed above fall in the realm of fixes that occur while editing. Offering small-scale editing advice is easy; it's often the kind of writing advice that people that aren't quality writers offer. Are you haunted by the teacher that would fail a paper for missing three commas? That's just a trash approach disconnected from good teaching, let alone good writing practice. Try to tune out these writing hang-ups and just write. Remember the last key part of the writing process: Revision. If these problems exist in your writing, then revision is the time to address them, especially if reader feedback suggests addressing such issues. +Read +We can fuel our writing by reading. Productive writers are prodigious readers. Aim to read widely. Read things you enjoy. Let words and ideas wash over you. Enjoy the process of reading. Through reading we fuel our own imagination. Through reading we accumulate new words and ways of thinking about the language we use. Writing occupies an important part of our world; writing isn't something rarefied and disconnected from other creative works we consume. Writing is part of a larger conversation with our world. Revel in the creativity of others to help with your own writing. +Closing thoughts +Helpful advice is great. However, helpful advice often speaks to unreal expectations and circumstances. Things happen and life gets in the way for all of us. We often ignore a lot of the advice we receive. I ignored much of my own advice in writing down many of the tips you just read. In my defense, I'd argue that I've spent a lot of time in the pre-writing process. I've also shared this advice countless times with students and experienced writers, whether in lecture, written comments, or in-person discussions. +Advice tends to fail when we use it as a one size fits all approach. Or implementing advice fails when we try to follow all of the advice, especially when it comes to writing. Writing is tricky because it is the subject of so many pieces of advice, so many supposed rules regarding good writing, and so on. Pick and choose from the writing advice I provided. The same goes for other sources of writing advice. Don't think you need to do it all. Also, keep in mind the aspects of your writing process that you know work for you. +What works for your own writing process, in the end, matters the most to your success." +931,Writing Erotica for Fun & Profit,BrettJ,How To,2015-01-06,2015-01-06,2022-01-04 08:42:53,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/writing-erotica-for-fun-and-profit,I explain my ongoing process for writing & selling erotica.,"['Advice', 'Essay', 'Humor', 'Instruction', 'Writing Erotica For Fun & Profit']",4.7,"To begin my little essay, let me say that you will be much more successful and contented as an author if you concentrate more on the former than on the latter. +Good day. My name is BrettJ, as you can see from the header. If any of you are new to my work, I am a prolific writer of erotica. On this site alone, I have accomplished the authorship of nearly 500 pieces. Elsewhere, under a different name, there are nearly 200 more. To date, I have written and sold nearly 1600 pieces of erotica fiction. I would say that does qualify me to give advice to fledgling erotic authors or even those whose ""batteries"" might need recharging. Sadly, it does indeed happen to the best of us. +I hope that his essay can offer advice, a bit of humor and some insight. I'm going to try and be thoughtful and offer some perspective on what it is like to be an author of erotic fiction and how to keep going at it after years of work. +An acquaintance of mine is a very successful author. His name is Mark Evanier and if that name is familiar to some of you, there is good reason. Mark has worked on such TV series as _Roseanne_ and was Story Editor / Producer on both _Garfield and Friends_ and the current _Garfield Show_. He has written books on such luminaries as Jack Kirby and voice actress June Foray and contributed several articles to magazines on animation and comics. He has been a prolific author for over 40 years. +Mark and I share one viewpoint -- writers must _write_. Don't make writing for pay a goal and not write a word until you are paid to do so -- write. Write as much as you can as often as you can. Have fun with the process, share your work and write, write, write until your words flow freely. +I think sites like LITEROTICA are a great thing, although some may disagree. I was ""discovered"" here after a few months of writing. I am now going to contradict some of my own advice as well as some of Mark's. +DO NOT let yourself be conned by publishers offering to get you work if you send them ""samples"". Don't work for free. Send A sample, sure -- or even just a few pages of something you consider a worthy example of your work. That is a reasonable request. If you are worth publishing, someone will want to pay you. That is the bottom line, except in my case. You may feel free to laugh, but the company for which I've worked this past 8 years asked to ""borrow"" some of my writing with the promise of future employment if they liked what they saw. In those days, I never would have believed I would ever be a professional author, I thought it was a pipe dream. They were offering free magazines in exchange for stories, I thought I'd end up with some free reading material. I said sure and thought nothing more of it. +Except that I lucked out. My company turned out to be wholly legit, even if the woman I originally dealt with was not. I sent them some material and heard nothing. Six months later, I got an E-Mail from the company asking why I had not sent them any new material. I responded that I had not been paid for the new material I had sent. Not Dime One. Within minutes, I had another E-Mail with an apology attached. They told me in no uncertain terms that they had no intention of cheating me and were apologetic and were going to make immediate restitution. I was to invoice them and a check would be sent out that day. I didn't have a full accounting to the original material I had sent, but did manage to cobble something together. I think it was for 15 stories, if memory serves. I got another mail and was told the check had been sent that day. To their credit, it arrived the following week. I later learned that there were some shenanigans going on behind the scenes and I was dealing with a new person as opposed to the initial contact. The second person left after another year passed and I now deal with either my ""liaison"" or the publisher himself. +Moving on we come to more business. In the early days, I was a freelance author, as most of you will likely be in the beginning or for the duration of your careers. Nothing wrong with that, but there are a few pitfalls. In my freelance career, I learned a hard lesson. Don't count on the cash until it is in your hands. My company had a ""pay upon publication"" policy at that time. At one point, they had about 50 of my stories and I had not seen a penny. I was very nearly broke and needed the money. Luckily, I hit a streak where they needed material and not only did I get paid, they needed more ASAP. +Be willing to walk away if the money isn't good. Erotic novels don't necessarily pay well. I earn more writing short stories than I would for two full novels per month. It isn't a high-paying field, rather, it is based on volume. If you are prolific like myself, you can earn a nice secondary income. You have to decide what makes you comfortable. +One good thing began to happen and that was, I established a reputation. I delivered the material as asked, to the themes they wanted and I delivered _on time_. Until two years ago, due to family circumstances and a serious, unexpected illness, I had _never missed a deadline_. That led them to offering me a contract. I was their first contracted employee. +Here is another business point -- you do need to know when to stand up for yourself and be willing to walk away. They were stalling on signing the contract, so I gave them an ultimatum -- sign before two more weeks were up or there would be no further material from me. I had nothing to lose -- they did. What they were asking from me was 300 new pieces a year -- nearly a million words. +Yes, you read that right -- but I believed I could do it. In fact, I knew that I could. I was prolific and to this day, I have more stories in my head than I have time to write. +So they signed -- and then, they made a mistake I urge all of you to avoid. They _did not read_ the very contract they had signed. I you wonder how that could happen, it was because they had never had a contracted employee before, remember? They had nothing to go on, so I, with the aid of a (very cute ~ sigh) friend wrote the contract myself. It spelled out what they got and what I got and I was beyond fair. When an issue arose six months in, I could stand my ground. ""It's not in the contract,"" was my simple answer. In fact, it was not. I didn't have to do as they asked, which was an unreasonable demand at the time. We have amended the contract a few times since then, once with a demand they held firm, once on a term I refused to budge on -- direct deposit pay. +I cannot stress this enough -- understand the terms of your payment and employment. In plain English -- what am I giving you and what are you giving me? +Other important things to remember -- keep a copy of everything you write and make sure you can prove it's yours. I use many pseudonyms because I write a lot of material. Everything on LIT and elsewhere holds my copyright. My publishers once found someone on the Internet ripping us off, as did LIT. We put a stop to it (it turned out not to be the website, but someone claiming he had my permission to use my material -- he did not). +Other tips now, including this one -- a lesson I had to learn the hard way -- twice, in fact. _Know your limitations_. If a company is offering you a thousand dollars for 40 stories a month, that might sound great -- but if you can only write 20, be realistic. Don't overdo. Your reputation will suffer if you can't deliver. A few years ago, my company and I came into dispute over my quota. They wanted a change which would have cost me a fair chunk of money. I wasn't thrilled. My liaison stood her ground and I had some years with the company, so I did something I didn't want to do -- I went over her head. With the assistance of an outside mediator and my publisher himself, we reached an agreement that ended up netting me $10 more a month for 3 less stories -- ten thousand words, in fact. It ended up making life easier until life kicked me in the unmentionables two years back. +Here is where my reputation and honesty saved my ass, for those of you still with me. They knew I'd deliver. Even last year, when it became apparent something was wrong, they trusted me. I was not fired for being so behind, I was ""suspended"". I intend to deliver everything I was paid for and work towards rebuilding my career. Wish me luck, all right? +Now comes the fun and intriguing part. I said it before, but it truly bears restating. Writers need to _write_. Erotica is as valid a genre as anything else and I believe I write erotica, not merely ""porn"". I don't try to crank it out, I do try to put thought into each and every piece. I've earned myself a nice following on LIT and at one point, was in their Top 100 most-read authors. I try to have fun when I am writing and I do think it shows in the work. +My first story was just a one-off and it took me a few days to write. A little science-fiction erotic piece (entitled ""Programmed For Love"" if anyone wants to search for it). It was based on a story I'd read years earlier and I did my own take on it. To my surprise, it earned me my first ""H"" (for Hot) on LITEROTICA. I have several hundred now. I believe that's because I try to have fun and think of the readers while writing each piece, while not letting them limit me. I don't ever pander to them, although I do to myself. I try to be funny, erotic and romantic or raunchy, depending on the style of the story. +In the early days, I was just thrilled to be writing again. I'd had a few medical issues that took away my creativity. 100% gone. When I got it back, it was with a zeal I had not enjoyed since my 20's. I loved writing erotica and I dearly loved getting fan mail (I still do) especially from women who liked my work. I've got several female fans who tell me one of the reasons they like my work is my dialog and I never write weak women characters. +Dialog is essential to good erotica, in my opinion. Don't write just a string of epithets and ""fuck me"" wordage. Have your characters talk like real people. Hear the conversations in your head. Be witty and funny. Use slang when appropriate but do NOT use Smartphone short forms unless pertinent to the story. +Lord, oh dear Lord of all that is kinky, please use some kind of spell check and watch your grammar. Your ""grammer"" is your mother's mom. Learn the difference between ""you're"" and ""your"". Add to that list ""two / to / too"" and ""they're / there / their"". There are several others that creep in. Learn when to end a paragraph. Check for run-on sentences. +I generally avoid the stories that read like a Phone Sex scenario and so do most publishers. By those, I mean as in ""You entered the room wearing your shortest skirt and high heels. I had chosen to wear my navy blazer and gray slacks."" Give your characters names (first and laugh) and back stories. If you know who they are as people, it will come across to the readers. I've even found myself revisiting characters because I thought of new ideas for them. It has happened several times. I have also thought of an idea for a supporting character that might only have appeared in a paragraph or two. Ideas come from everywhere. +So, when those ideas DO arrive -- write them down. Or, if you're at the computer as I am now, create an ""idea file"" and write as much into that as comes to you at that moment. I have several stories in inventory that I will get around to. I know from experience that if I don't put them somewhere, they will sometimes fade. At times, even the title will jog my memory. Other times, I need more. I have had an ""idea"" spew out of me that turned into 3 or 4 pages of material before I stopped typing. I fleshed it out later and those stories are often my best because I took the time to jot it all down while it was still fresh and naughty in my fevered imagination. +There is no easy answer to the question ""where do you get all of your ideas?"" because there is no hard answer. It just -- is. The answer is -- everywhere. On the bus, in conversations, from another story, from reading _Playboy_ to the silliest of things. One fan challenged me to write a story about pinball. Look for it. Another wanted me to write a story involving Peanut Butter. Wrote that one too. + _Don't forget to have fun._ Good erotica is, in my opinion, fun erotica. Whether it's romantic, raunchy or perverted, it should be fun for the author and for the reader. +I don't believe you have to have more than the germ of an idea to start writing. I've even started a story with just a title or the name of the female lead. I look upon it as a journey, I've started out and I know where the end is when I get there. At other times, I have the beginning and ending in mind. The sex is the middle, like the filling in an Oreo. +Other ideas from me, once again -- fun. Believe it or not, nice Catholic girls and boys can write erotica. It isn't usually real, so go a little hog wild. I entered the LITEROTICA Survivor Contest last year to expand my horizons. I wrote in a few categories I hadn't before. I won one of the prizes. I entered again this year, much for the same reason. This very essay is part of that. I regret that LIT is ending them as of this year because I do believe the challenge made me a better author. Writers, challenge yourself. If you can write hardcore porn, write something with romance. If you tend to be a bit on the flowery side, go for the nasty stuff. Think like a gentleman or lady in the day to day world, be a bit of a whore on the printed page. +As I said, I get inspiration from a lot of places and one of those is photos. Almost all of my characters have a real-life visual counterpart. In my ""Heather and Bryan"" series, there are two real-life Heathers I use as templates, both from _Playboy_. So I know how their bodies look in certain positions, the color of their eyes, all of it. I even hear some of their voices based on videos. I don't advise using their real names, although real first names are usually okay. In a few situations, I got permission from actual women (Linn Thomas, Erin Fox and adult film actress Angela Sommers) to use them as characters in my story. All of those ladies approved. +Set the scene. What does the room look like? How is each character dressed and in the case of the women, made up? High heels, bare feet or slippers? Shaved, trimmed or _au naturel?_ You might not think it matters to the readers -- but it does. +Now that you have some of the basics down, get writing. If you have a talent for writing, it shouldn't be like pulling teeth. That does happen, even to someone like me. With my illness, I had the ideas, the process was just excruciating for a time. A friend offered me good advice. He had no idea how much I'd written and when I told him, he was astonished. "" _That_ much?"" He gasped when I answered. When I told him how much per month, his eyes went wild. ""No wonder you're tired,"" he admonished me. ""Stop beating yourself up, you need a break."" He was right. It is okay to take a break, although sometimes, you can't afford to. In my case, my health won out over commerce. +You're writing now -- having fun? Good, is it a short story or a novella or a full-on novel? Sometimes it can start out as one and move into the second and eventually, the third. Or a series of stories. Some publishers don't want series, so know who buys what in advance if you can. +I can say that the current erotic fiction market is in a state of flux. Novels sell, but usually by established writers like Opal Carew. Short story markets are still fairly good, although the E-Book / Kindle market is opening up. Even Amazon offers self-publishing, well worth exploring. Of course, you don't have to choose one over the other, you can market yourself as many ways as you would like, providing you remember the time factor. +I also suggest writing to your comfort level. Don't write something that you know would make you very uncomfortable. I don't like rape / non-consent material or anything degrading. I know I could write Gay erotica, but it isn't my genre. I write good lesbian fiction and a few other odd categories that some might find off-putting. I have fun, remember it is all a fantasy and that bills must get paid. Commerce does matter. Again, I stress -- do NOT let a publisher con you into writing for ""free"". Yes, get your work out there -- LIT and other sites can do that for you, or you can create your own site. Sometimes, a fledgling company will offer to publish a story of yours in an anthology, with a copy of the book as your recompense unless the sales go over a certain number. I've done that once, as I thought it fair enough for a novice writer. The book was fun, although badly edited. Spelling, grammatical and layout errors were abundant. It wasn't too difficult to see why the book didn't sell huge numbers. +Here's one thought as I wrap up -- decide for yourself if you want to tell friends and family what you do. It was about 4 years before I told my family and they weren't thrilled. They still aren't, although now that they see what I earned, it's a bit more acceptable. Most of my friends know. Some still don't. The stigma remains. I'm proud of my accomplishments and the volume of work I have achieved. Still, I don't want everyone knowing I'm a ""pornographer"". I certainly am not Larry Flynt. +Write. If you have computer skills, you've got another tool to use in furthering your career. Before you find a publisher, have something to show them. Have a few somethings because lots of publishers (mine included) publish several genres. +The work is out there if you pursue it, it's fun and it's challenging. +If anyone wishes to ask me further questions, I'm usually on my thread in the Forums or PM me. I'm willing to help out anyone. +In summation, I stick by this -- write because it's something you love to do. +BrettJ +December 31, 2014" +932,Writing FETISH Fiction,MorganHawke,How To,2009-07-22,2009-07-22,2022-01-04 08:42:56,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/writing-fetish-fiction,Fetish fiction ISN'T Kink fiction.,"['Erotic Writing', 'Fetish', 'Tutorial', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing How-To']",4.49,"\-----Original Message----- "" _Could you do a guide on how to make a decent PWP revolving around Fetishes with things like 'Add detail,' and 'Don't make it choppy_?' -- Furry Fan +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + **What makes Fetish fiction unique from any other kind of Erotic fiction?** +What makes ANY genre of fiction unique from any other?

That key element must not only be there and detailed, it must be what makes your story HAPPEN. +Why? +To forward any story's plot you need Dramatic Tension. If all the dramatic tension in your Fetish story comes from somewhere OTHER than the Fetish scenes, then the Fetish scenes aren't necessary to tell the story. If the Fetish scenes aren't necessary to tell the story then you're NOT writing FETISH fiction, you're writing whatever _else_ is turning your plot. +In fact, if the Fetish scenes aren't necessary to tell the story then they ** _don't belong_** in the story.

Are you writing Fetish fiction or Kink fiction? + **Fetish ISN'T Kink.** +A Kink is something that makes sex exciting, also known as Slap & Tickle. No matter how many whips and chains are used, no matter how much blood is spilled carving your name into someone's ass, Kink is a form of sexual Play, pure and simple. +A Fetish ISN'T Play. It's a very personal, very individual, and a very private APPETITE. Fetishes, whether they're a specific object, a specific person or type of person, a costume, or a ritualistic behavior are something the Fetishist NEEDS like food, water, or air to breathe -- to get off. Additionally, that ' _getting off'_ ISN'T always Sexual. In fact, according to several Fetishists that I know personally, fulfillment grants a euphoria they swear is _better_ than orgasm. +What makes it so good? +When a Fetishist has access to what gratifies their need, they can reach fulfillment **_without orgasm_** because their need is _more_ than merelysexual. Often it's a deep rooted _emotional_ need and that need is what's being gratified, not merely their body. +A sexual sadist with a **_Fetish_** for screams that plays Slap & Tickle with a lover isn't doing it because they want to fuck their lover. They're playing Slap & Tickle to feed their _true hunger_. Once they get the screams they're after, they may not even want sex at all because they HAD their gratification already -- the screams. +A sexual sadist with a **_Kink_** for screams DOES want to fuck the screamer, preferably WHILE they're screaming. +Someone with a **_Fetish_** for women's feet, or boots, or uniforms, or bondage gear _doesn't_ need to have sex with those in such garb. Observing the wearer, touching the objects, smelling the material, hearing the sounds associated with them, and sometimes even tasting them is more than enough to completely satisfy a Fetishist. • _THIS is why detail is so vitally important in Fetish Fiction_. +On the other hand, someone with a **_Kink_** for women's feet, or boots, or uniforms, or leather bondage gear DOES want to fuck those in such garb. + **Just to make things even more complicated,** **It is not unusual for a Fetish to trigger a Kink.** +Case in point, the urge to Dominate can trigger the urge to Strike or the urge to Rape, which in turn could trigger a sexual kink. However, the point of either reaction is still Domination. In the case of a Fetish, the overwhelming need to make contact with the object of their Fetish or get a certain response from someone to fulfill their Fetish could also trigger a Domination response, which could also trigger a sexual Kink. However, the point of their reaction isn't Domination -- it's fulfillment of their Fetish. If this happens often enough: **_Fetish > Domination Response > Kink_**, eventually the Fetish alone will be enough to trigger the Kink. +In short: +~ A Kink is when you use a feather to cum. +~ A Fetish is when Touching the feather will make you cum. +Whether you are writing Fetish, or Kink, make sure you Label your story properly!

Your story is there to feed a NEED, so ALL the senses must come into play: Sight, Scent, Sound, Sensation, and Flavor. +Your story can be so simple that the characters don't even have names. However, where the Fetish comes into play, every thought, feeling, and sensation that focuses on that Fetish MUST be written in loving detail. +What it looks like, what it sounds like, what it smells like, what it feels like, what it tastes like... What does it do? How does it affect your characters? How does it make them feel physically, emotionally, and possibly spiritually? Do they like the Fetish? Hate it? Wish it would go away? Try to fight it? Revel in it? Try to convert others into liking it too? +All-righty then, here's the hardest part of writing Fetish Fiction: + **How do you plan to END your Fetish story?** +Where will this Fetish take your main character? What will become of them because of this Fetish? Will it make their lives better -- or worse? Will they find a safe outlet to satisfy their Fetish, or make a terrible error in judgment that destroys them? Do you want a happy ending, or a tragic one? + ** _REALITY CHECK! ~_ There is NO CURE for a Fetish.** +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +A Fetish isn't something that goes away. A Fetish is NOT an addiction -- though a Kink can be! Fetishes are rooted deep in the psyche and while a shrink might be able to find the cause, there is No Cure. The only treatment is to find a safe outlet that feeds the need. The only other options are becoming a Victim or a Predator. +Make sure you understand this BEFORE you write your ending. Those of us that have Fetishes really appreciate it when someone actually tells the Truth. + ** _In Conclusion:_** +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +Whether you're writing serious Fetish Fiction or merely Kink Fiction, the key to writing either one is Detail and Focus.

On a dark, stormy night, a mad scientist is playing God, trying to create new life out of a blasphemous mixture of alchemy and science. And somewhere in the void of deep space, an alien horror that should not exist waits and watches with a thousand eyes. +These are the standard tropes of the horror genre. +Not that many people on this site actually know it, but I originally started out writing short horror stories. Some of them have seen print, others were published online in digital format, and still others linger on my computer, waiting to be re-written in some form or another. And while I may try my hand at other styles of writing, I always find myself returning to my beloved horror stories when the inspiration moves me. +But what is horror? How can you write truly scary works? I'm not going to lie to you. Just reading this brief essay probably won't make you into a horror writer, so don't get any delusions that you are the next Stephen King or Clive Barker. Instead, what I hope to do is inspire you to write your own ideas - what comes from within. That is far more terrifying than any ghost, ghoul or long-legged beastie that I could imagine. So if you would like to write horror, then please, read onward. +First, let's start out by defining what horror is in the first place. It's a genre of literature aimed at scaring, frightening and entertaining an audience. It's a very broad category, including everything from urban legends and ghost stories you used to tell around Halloween, all the way up to the classics of Gothic horror like Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' and Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein.' Horror goes well beyond storytelling and literature, though. It also includes countless movies about serial killers, vampires, and other monsters. +As any good, self-proclaimed nerd could tell you, horror is closely related to science fiction and fantasy. In fact, the genres can (and do) overlap to a certain extent. 'Frankenstein,' for instance, was a science fiction story by the very definition of the word! Mary Shelley had Victor Frankenstein using a mixture of alchemy and pseudo-science to resurrect the dead. In a similar vein, the film 'Alien' takes place in space and involves an extraterrestrial life form. Lovecraft used similar ideas in his writings. +One can also find plenty of examples of 'dark fantasy' and 'Gothic fantasy' in literature, film, television, comics and gaming. The Dungeons & Dragons setting of Ravenloft would be a good example of this, being replete with vampires, necromancers, witches and the like. +A bit further afield, horror is also related to suspense and mystery. Although nobody would say that police procedurals like 'Law & Order' or 'CSI' are ""horror"" in any sense of the word, there are plenty of examples of horror that do rely on serial killers. 'Silence of the Lambs' springs to mind immediately. Not all monsters are literal. Serial killers like John Wayne Gacy, David Berkowitz, Ed Gein and Jeffrey Dahmer were far worse than any fictional vampire or werewolf. +But none of that really tells us what horror is, does it? Horror can have monsters, yes, but nobody in their right mind would say Count Chocula or 'Casper the Friendly Ghost' count as ""horror."" Nor does horror need a monster to be scary, as we've established that human killers can be perfectly within genre. The same applies to wild animals (like, say, being hunted down by a grizzly bear), natural situations (being lost in uncaring wilderness), or just strange phenomena with no intellect or being driving them whatsoever (a man walking out into a field and just disappearing). And yes, all of those examples have been done in one way or another. +So what is horror? True horror is fear... Fear of the unknown, fear of death, fear of being harmed, fear of being alone, etc. That is what horror boils down to. Horror fascinates us and moves us because it provides a safe outlet for our most primal fears. +And that is the secret to writing great horror. +First, start with what scares _you_. It doesn't matter if you're afraid of clowns, spiders, water, the number thirteen, darkness or something more exotic. Ask yourself what you are afraid and then think about it for a while. Don't over analyze things, just think about why you feel that way and try and capture it in such a fashion that other people can relate to. Even if we can't understand your fear, at least we will be entertained by it. +I know, that sounds rather paradoxical, but it's a good first step. Scare yourself, then try to scare other people. Exaggerate and distort that fear. Make it into something that is _just_ close enough to reality that it can spook us. +Now, while you ponder over what I've written, allow me to expand upon some further points of interest. + **Here Be Dragons** +In olden days, when knowledge of geography beyond the major population centers was sketchy at best, mapmakers would mark the unknown corners of the world with the ominous phrase 'Here be Dragons.' Even before that, primitive tribes huddled around their campfires at night, trying to stave off the depredations of nocturnal carnivores. And even today, mothers tell their children not to wander too far when they play. +The unknown is scary, and that fear extends to our very perceptions of geography. Keep this in mind when you write. If your protagonist is dropped off in a hostile and unfamiliar territory, everything becomes much scarier for him. For example, for many of us city-dwellers, rural settings like those in 'Deliverance,' 'Wrong Turn' and 'The Hills Have Eyes' embody our fears about breaking down on the interstate, miles from any trace of civilization. +Play up on those fears. Exaggerate the dangers of the terrain and make it scary, whether we are talking about swamps filled with quicksand and tropical diseases, unforgiving Arctic wastes, or even the most crime-ridden parts of inner city ghettoes. If you can make it scary, then write about it. And it's even better if you've been to those areas and know something about them. + **Traditional Monsters** +Despite what I wrote earlier, monsters are still a big part of horror. Everyone knows Dracula, Frankenstein, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde, the Phantom of the Opera, King Kong, and so forth. These are undeniable icons of horror, and have been used and re-used in countless adaptations. There are countless movies and books written about vampires, zombies, werewolves, ghosts, sea monsters, and other mainstays of horror. +The trick with using these monsters, though, is to make them unique and original. Everyone knows what a vampire is. It's an undead being who drinks blood, can turn into a bat, and is repulsed by garlic. Right? And werewolves are vulnerable to silver, and zombies need to eat brains, and so forth. The thing is, the lore is so vast that authors can pick and choose which elements to use when writing these more familiar creatures. Everyone has seen Gothed out vampires bedecked in Victorian finery. But vampires in cowboy boots and western wear, or urban vampires with gangsta style are a little more unique. +This extends beyond the superficial. The vampires, werewolves, zombies and so forth that appear in popular culture bear little resemblance to their origins in folklore. In some stories vampires can come out during the day. In others they loose all their powers in sunlight, but are otherwise just fine. And, of course, in many stories they die in sunlight. With that in mind, you can easily change around 'traditional' monsters and make them interesting and different. + **Non-Traditional Monsters** +Then there's the rest of the world beyond Europe and North America. Other cultures have their own folklore and mythology that is just as rich and can provide aspiring authors with new sources of inspiration. Arabian lore has flesh-eating _ghuls_ and malicious _jinn_. The Filipinos have the _aswang,_ which preys on children and pregnant women. In Mexico there are stories of witches called _civatateo_. The Algonquin Indians spoke of the cannibalistic _windigo_ , and Russians have tales of _rusalka_ that pull men to their deaths in the river. +Any or all of these creatures can serve as an excellent source of ideas for writers, especially if you were raised with those stories in your background. But, we need not go half-way across the world in search of horror, because there are plenty of homegrown ideas right here. Urban legends are a form of folklore that has saturated into popular culture. Think about it... the serial killer with the hooked hand, gang members killing people who flash their brights as an initiation, albino alligators living in the sewer. All of these familiar cautionary tales can be used by creative writers. +Once again, these stories should be updated, changed or re-invented to better suit the modern world. Even if a western audience has no awareness of Japanese _gaki_ , Inuit _tupilaq_ , or Balinese _leyak_ , just a few small changes can make it into an entirely different creature. After all, you are (hopefully) interested in crafting your own tales instead of just repeating someone else's. + **What Was That Thing** +Not all monsters fall into these convenient (albeit admittedly artificial) categories. Some truly bizarre creatures are one-of-a-kind horrors that have no mythology behind them. Think of the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man from 'Ghostbusters' or the giant monster from 'Cloverfield.' That sort of unique, one-shot monster is the sort of thing really creative writers can come up with on a good night. While all of your creations should be unique, creating an entirely new (and fictitious) creature is an especially challenging exercise. +Still, the basic concept is the same. Come up with a creature, write in the details and run with it. What does your monster do? Does it tear people apart at night? Does it take control of their bodies and make them do things against their will? Something else entirely? The only real trick is that you don't have any folklore, mythology or previous stories to inspire you. But then, that's part of what makes it so fun in the fir + **Consistency** +When telling a story, the most basic rule is to always be consistent. This is even more true when you are writing fiction. You don't need to spell out what sort of things are going on in your story, but you (as the writer) should have a clear idea of what is happening when you write it. You don't need to tell it to your audience, and in fact, it's far scary if you keep us in the dark. But leaving some mysterious element that serves no other purpose than to get our attention is just annoying. You need to be consistent in your horror. +This applies to all other aspects of writing as well. Keep a consistently dark and ominous mood when you are writing horror. Surprise endings can be fun if they are executed properly, but far too often it just annoys your readers. If I am reading a story about a zombie apocalypse, I don't want some sort of deus ex machina at the end that involves an alien invasion. You can mix monsters, elements, and genres, but do so in a way that doesn't break the mood. Otherwise things just get kind of silly, and you don't want that. + **Scream Queens and Token Victims** +Another subject that I feel I should touch upon, however briefly, is character development. One thing that sets apart horror from other genres is the potential for relatively high casualty rates. In fact, its so common that the phenomena has become something of a trope or in-joke, with many movies using stereotypical 'stock characters' who are slowly picked off, one by one, until only the main protagonists are left. Examples of this are so numerous that it barely merits any mention. +Like any stereotypes, there is some grain of truth in this, but it's also a very dangerous trap to fall into. Especially for writers, who have to ply the fertile depths of the imagination instead of relying upon bloody visuals like film-makers do. If you want a death to be meaningful - to shock and disturb your audience - then you have to either make it really gory, or make the character someone interesting enough that the audience cares about them. Or, better yet, both. +On the other hand, you also have your stereotypical stock characters... Big breasted scream queens, brooding Goths, grizzled survivors of the zombie apocalypse, token minorities, nerds without 'street smarts,' dumb jocks or frat boys, and so forth. These are characters who are practically made to be thrown away, aside from the stereotypical grizzled monster hunter/survivor/loner type. They usually wind up going out in a blaze of glory, taking the monster with them in the process. +Just to surprise your audience, I say switch things around a little. Write standard 'stock character' types with interesting backgrounds to set them apart. A frat boy who enjoys chess and can quote ancient Greek poetry, or a big breasted scientist, or a token minority character from a comfortable suburban background. Those are different enough that your audience might actually care about those characters. In fact, they very well could become protagonists in their own right, and the (supposed) 'hero' becomes monster fodder. + **Do Your Homework** +Let's face it, there have been a lot of horror writers before you. Do yourself a favor and read some of their works. Steven King, Clive Barker, H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allen Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Robert Bloch, Chuck Palahniuk, Anne Rice, Poppy Z. Brite, Bram Stoker, and a dozen others. All of them wrote things which you should be reading, and enjoying. Don't try to copy their style. After all, you want to find your own voice. Instead, try and figure out what about their writing moves and inspires you. Appreciate their work for what it is and you will be good. +Don't limit yourself to books either. Even as much as I may decry the decline in literary interests here, I am not going to act like some sort of elitist snob either. There are plenty of comics, movies, video games, television shows and other media that convey horror just as well as any writer. In fact, many of them are adaptations of books or stories written by the authors above. Universal and Hammer influenced how entire generations saw classic movie monsters, not to mention the way that Japanese films have re-interpreted monsters. And then there are great shows like 'Twilight Zone,' 'Outer Limits,' 'One Step Beyond,' and 'The X-Files.' +Do yourself a favor and reacquaint yourselves with classic slashers like Jason, Freddie Krueger, Michael Myers, Norman Bates, Pinhead and (for the more recent generation) Jigsaw. They won't hurt you... much. + **The Unknown IS Scary** +One final thing to bear in mind, which I've repeated many times throughout here, is that the unknown is scary. Use that to your advantage. Simply saying that a vampire kills someone, or that a man is really a killer. But keeping your audience guessing is much more fun, both for you and the reader. In fact, a really creative author can be so ambiguous as to have nothing really happen in his story, while still making the reader question it. So by all means, keep us in the dark. Use descriptions to set the mood, but not to reveal what is really happening, right up until the end. +After all has been said and done, you should be able to use these simple pieces of advice to inspire your own horror writing. Hopefully you've learned something about the fine art of scaring people. I look forward to seeing your stories, so please let me know if you found this (all too brief) essay helpful. +Mwahahaha." +934,Writing in Love,Frogsoup,How To,2009-01-06,2009-01-06,2022-01-04 08:42:58,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/writing-in-love,Keeping love real for the reader.,"['Love', 'Reader', 'Writing', 'Writing How-To']",4.63,"Love is silly. +This is not to say that love is laughable, or funny; it's neither.

We do things out of character for us, we say things we normally wouldn't say and almost immediately the changes begin. The playboy doesn't go out anymore, he only wants one person. The strong woman is weak for her love and cannot stand against it, doesn't want to. When they are apart, each feels the void of the other's absence, and when they are together, they are completed. +Those of us lucky enough to be in love, or that have ever been in love, know the changes it brings to us. When writing about love between characters, the contrast between who they are and who they were can be explored in detail, and can resonate with the reader in a way that mere sex cannot. Sex as a whole is enhanced by love and if a character should have sex with someone else the contrast should be felt. It feels empty, meaningless. It's a form of masturbation. +But get with your lover...the one you truly love...and the sparks fly. Sex transcends physicality and moves into the realm of the spiritual, a connection with another, a synergy. It's become 'making love' and has the power to shift the world. +Real people are usually surprised and may be shocked by the contrast. When writing of a character falling in love, the reader may want to see that difference and remember it. A good way to do this is the way a reader would do it: compare the two experiences and explore them. +Suppose Jack parties a lot with his buddies, goes to bars, picks up a bunch of superficial 'chicks' that he takes home and 'bangs out'. These liaisons mean nothing to Jack. He gains the respect of his friends with his ability to get the women he finds attractive into bed, and demonstrates his power over them by his ability to forget they ever exist. In his way, Jack is a happy man. +And then he meets Jill and falls in love, and his world is changed. He doesn't go out with his friends anymore. They call him 'pussy-whipped' and he doesn't care; his life has become Jill, being with Jill, and after making love to Jill he realizes that he's been a fool. He recognizes that all the women he's loved and left may have hurt like he hurts when Jill leaves him for Bill. He regrets; he will never see his life and his world the same way again. +Or suppose Jill is a successful businesswoman, on her way up; she has no time for sex, or love. She avoids situations that may complicate her life and focuses on her career. She has the occasional lover as a distraction, but afterward he goes home and she goes to bed and the sun will dawn on the same day tomorrow. +And then she meets her new client Jack and she feels a click with him, a connection she has never felt before. He distracts her. She thinks of him all the time. Her work falls off. She feels most alive when he is near her and when he is gone she feels his absence, she hears the ticking of the clock and feels her own mortality. She realizes her life is empty and broken. And when Jack and Jill finally make love...she is whole. +By exploring the changes within our characters, we can demonstrate the vast power this emotion has over us to make us different than we were--maybe better, maybe not, but not the same. Love transcends everything. Racial and social boundaries are meaningless; mores become laughable. Love permeates life and lives beyond death. It transcends education, station, and gender. It makes people run gladly from safety into chaos. The characters we create will stop at nothing to be with the people they love. They will tear through everybody in their way, breach any wall. We who have been in love know this feeling and recognize it, those who have never been may be confused by how different one becomes and catch a glimpse of what they've missed thus far. +Interactions between characters are not always about love. It could be about sex, desire, fantasy, lifestyle, etc. But love--real love--is an all-consuming flame and a new person is born from the ashes. +Older love is different, a flame between two people that warms them and makes finding someone else out of the question. That's not who they are anymore. They may have affairs, but they cannot see living apart from the one they have been with. Jill might like to be caned before sex, and Jack just won't. Jack might secretly want sex with men and Jill just won't do for that. But they know they are in love and cannot live without their partner. +Unless they fall in love with their lover. +They may share the experience with their spouse or significant other, seeking threesomes or exhibition; but love cleaves them together. This type of experience might lead to insecurity on the part of one or the other, for what if the person they adore likes the third person more? Then one character will see it as an invasion of something that is sacred to them. +Exploring the differences in who characters were and who they are now is the surest yardstick for the depth of their love. Some will agree to stop wearing corduroy pants because their partner can't stand the swishing sound when they walk. Some might throw their whole life away and travel halfway across the globe to be with someone they have never seen. The depth, the differences are dependent on the love, the character, and of course the author's view of who that character is and what they need. +In the end, love is the most powerful emotion we can feel, and so it should transform a character, make them see the world differently, think differently and act differently. And stories are about the story, and if the story is about love, it should be realistic and demonstrate the power of this killing and saving emotion in order to make the reader more fully aware of a character's depth of feeling. +If you've never been in love, there's plenty here to give you an idea of its strength. If you have been or you are, draw on your own experience--what was it like for you, and how deeply did you feel it? And would your characters, if they should somehow become real, act on the emotion as portrayed, in the way they are portrayed as acting? Would you act on a one-dimensional emotion?" +935,Writing Porn From The Heart,Histarter,How To,2006-06-13,2006-06-13,2022-01-04 08:42:59,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/writing-porn-from-the-heart,Confessions about writing.,"['Author', 'Writer', 'Writing', 'Writing Advice']",4.17,"I have noticed the 'idealistic trend' of making women a passive aggressive, instead of recognizing them for their ""power that radiates from within them"" that truly appears to be the most frequent reason for them opening up to a male in need. We have too much bias for a horny lady permitting an aroused male the right to give them a good fucking, instead of - yielding to the maiden's equal member status for seeking sexual relief! Then to scorn sexual participants with morality codes of a sick society's attitude regarding unrealistic limitations on an adult's sexual needs, is stupidity to me! Mother kissing daughter while her (adult) son is emptying himself into his (adult) sister's cunt is acceptable to me – as long as they are all comfortable and contented afterward. In fact mama and daughter can switch places, as long as brother is still capable! +Porn doesn't have to be ""nasty"", and can instead be an explicit method to illustrate the affection between humans, regardless of orientation. Close friends enjoying an orgy, or a dedicated couple inviting another into their bed is truly normality, and is something that frequently occurs – but the secret is kept, and it used as life's enhancement rather than a stored tool to control someone. This is reality rather than idealistic bullshit that is popularly spread! +Now I am not saying that my view is the only view, but instead I am hoping to solicit more excitement for me by reading about fearless but affectionate fucking, from the innovative writers out there - without any weak couplings. I truly enjoy where the intensity of the rut is mutual, normal, and beautiful! Sex is a loving sleeping pill at night, with couples excitingly neutering each other to comfortably enjoy their bodies recharge, after the day's distentions. Solving curiosities, reducing barriers, and raising ego's confidence levels through successful seduction - along with sexual relief are the more natural reasons to copulate. Hero worship, career fucking, marrying just for sex or for status, is all classified as competitive sex, and I would prefer not to embellish this forte', unless I want to put a novel twist into it – like the nasty lady that marries the wealthy actor, while enjoying an ongoing sexual relationship with his gardener, only to realize she really loves her husband, and then applies her practiced skills accordingly (for both)! +Yes, there is a place for getting nasty, and that is interesting reading also; however, the school teacher or professor that shares genitals with students for the purpose of exposing them to life's normality (while getting off themselves) should not be censored more than daddy fucking daughter. Double penetration is almost a comedy of a woman 'forcing' two guys to enjoy her, and is quite theatrical, though overkill as a stunt, instead of the delicious serial intimacy, like a party girl 'sniper' taking each 'target', one at a time into secluded intimacy for a chain of thrills. This is just my point of view! +I write with honesty, and try to identify normal human lust without any judgment, meaning I will enter into contract openly, without prejudice. I love my wife, and we are mated for life – even though she is free to go at any time. If she were totally free from societies bondage, and had boyfriends that would fuck her occasionally, I would proud and happy for her enjoying personal freedom. I would also feel affection for the males that gave the one I love so much pleasure. And if the day ever comes when she can present me with a cream pie, she will find me lustfully adding a bit more cream into the mixture, while making emotional love to her at the same time. When I portray this attitude in my writing, many think of me as a wimp instead of a realist. To me nature dictates over the transgressions of mankind who creates illogical rules, which frequently abridge normality creating unrealistic legal structure that is totally unneeded. +Incest obviously is a tool for evolution, since it was performed for ages prior civilization without any thought of protection. Unfortunately modern society, with a zero tolerance attitude, tends to eliminate affection from sexual activities while coldly promoting contracts (shallow marriages i.e. mistress and or gigolo of the week, rent a wife, rent a slave, etc.). ""We only did it (fucking) because we were both aroused,"" and any thought of enjoying the activity while intensely comforting a loved one seems to be on the back burner, just showing up occasionally from the writers that make their donations from the general public. This attitude is promoted by frustration that always seems to amplify jealousy – something the aging process tends to subdue. +The physical act of intercourse is something boys and girls do because they have the tools, and the programming that make it an absolutely necessity, biologically. Cumming into a pussy carries the tranquilizers a girl needs, and the shear pleasure and relief the male experiences after discharge into an eager receptacle is also lowering his testosterone; totally demonstrating the normal comforting and necessity of this beautiful act of sharing life's gifts. Porn stars have it right with proper attitudes toward the sex act itself as simple demonstrations of human lust, and they display it accordingly without complications (even though they are somewhat financially motivated). The multitude of 18 to 25 year old freelance hookers that our economy supports, tend to enjoy plying the art of seduction, the excitement of the rut, disobedience and defiance more than the financial rewards – while believing they are just having fun while getting paid for it. +Exaggerating is something I try my best to avoid. The majority of us are just average, but still have normal lust and needs. I try to target them, rather than idealistic models of beauty. I would rather hump a torrid plump affectionate partner, than a shallow cold but permissive beauty. Normal cunts expand with relaxation, so a loose hot pussy to me is demonstrating my partners comfort and trust with me. Also, the most sensitive contact areas for boy girl intercourse is the opening entranceway of the pussy, and the base of a cock - meaning excitement for the girl would occur with the male's restraint to concentrate on rapid short thrusting, ideally with a short plump cock, mixed with lots of aural stimulation to keep her juices flowing. When the magic moment occurs, it is most pleasurable with the cock fully embedded, tip seeking cervix and squirting to add hot male fluids into the feminine goo, while her pussy muscles spasm and choke cock base. G spot? That is a source of extreme pleasure for winning a maiden over, and convincing her that you're the man she has to fuck, much like playing and licking the clitoris. I treat it as another appetizer (""fooling around"") for the more serious and passionate rut. +Anal sex for me is unnatural, even though I am not a homophobe. I love menage a trios and believe I am actually making love to my male partner through the medium of the woman that is enjoying the both of us. In fact I met my first wife this way (loving my best friend more then her at the time). He wanted to share his girlfriend with me as an act of camaraderie. [He never did marry, while enjoying my wife, her girlfriends, and his other girlfriends – All of which he shared with me] Although I can write about anal, I just cannot get passionate to the point I feel competitive. My first wife enjoyed it so I was there for her and only one other girl who experienced me that way, in all of 50 years. I am quite happy to go to the grave with my ass a virgin!! +I do enjoy thinking about the passion and excitement of kissing my wife, while cumming into her girlfriends cunt, then slipping off her panting body to have my wife now straddle me and look into my eyes endearingly while she is steering my slippery cock into her pussy, that is twitching to re-energize me while we make love - without any jealousy or modesty. This is true love when one is seeking contentment for their partner, unconditionally! +I would have loved to gratify my daughters and cousins needs, if they would have come to me as an adult; however, I was a bit sanctimonious at that time, and would have been very guilty of breaking societies extremely tight taboos - where I felt adultery was a game for adults, but incest a crime against humanity. Boy, was I a dumb asshole back then! In my middle years is where my sexuality awakened. I had fun with my neighbors wife (3 nights a week for 5 months), then an Israeli Sargent (that was a wonderful feminine aggressor – no bondage just intense seduction). I was making out with my first wife in a dark corner at a party when her girlfriend caught us; she quickly removed her panties, laid down on the couch and invited me into a torrid fuck, to my wife's glee. After going all the way, she got up and wiped our juices off her pussy with her panties stating she didn't want to drip, checked my cock and said ""your wife is right about your staying power, now finish what I interrupted,"" she then took off for the ladies room to freshen up. My wife then gave me the hottest fuck of our marriage (and it was then open season on her girlfriends as a team). This to me is natural and normal, and is the cornerstone for all my later adventures, and for the fiction that I write; hopefully with demonstrative compassion because I wish my lovers to be contented, proud, and happy rather then guilty or embarrassed. +My hope with this writing is to help authors stimulate their audience to unconditionally accept their roles in life without concern of any extra embellishments, that are unnecessary to enjoy life's greatest gift – FUCKING! Trivia concern on bust size for example is truly unnecessary, since the sexiest thing about partners is their personality, desire, intelligence, sincerity and ability to enjoy - and keep secrets. Basically bust size should truly not be a handicap as long as the nipples are sensitive and responsive, and the titties themselves just don't interfere with the action, that is so much more important! I just don't keep a mental trophy of my conquests by the size of their mammary. Cleavage is a turn-on, however my goal is to have her bent double, with her ankles close to my ears, while I am cumming deeply into her churning cunt, while she is moaning happily into my mouth as we tongue wrestle. Having her panties dangle from an ankle I find very sexy when I am removing her legs from my shoulders, forcing me to kiss and lick her pussy again to encourage a more naked intimacy. +My last comment is about my outlook on the result of lots of fucking, and why adults should be prepared for the consequences. I wish I was more mature in my earlier lifetime, so as to realize that babies should not be a barrier or a problem, but a happy result when a good basic family unit is ready for their existence. Don't want babies? Use protection, but with the responsibility that if an accident happens you do the best you can to raise the tyke without punishing oneself or the baby. I know if I were young again and after establishing a good home, that I would enjoy sex parties with my wife, and if it ended up with her getting knocked up, the child is ours regardless of ethnic origin. We would raise it with family love while making sure it would have additional siblings to enjoy sharing life's experiences with. This to me is the definition of love, and what life is about! +Enjoy writing what you feel without being forced into dishonesty, or be pressured by competitive exaggerations.

Sex is such a transcendent experience that it almost defies words. So how are you supposed to write about it then? Fear not, for I have scoured the forums to bring you the wisdom of the ages! +And by that I mean I read what Weird Harold said on the subject. + **Do you really want to do this?** +The biggest thing wrong with a lot of the stories on Lit is that there doesn't seem to be a reason for the character to be having sex. A brother walks in on his sister undressing and suddenly they're both fucking like rabbits. We don't get why, we don't get what either of them are thinking, they're just straight in there. +A lot of people complain about difficulties getting characters to fall into bed. They write the background easily, but their characters don't seem to want to play and in fact resist getting together. Think about _why_ your characters are supposed to be shagging. Do they love each other, is she drunk, are they the last two people alive and it's a way to pass the time? If your characters don't have a good enough reason, then they may resist the sex scene and you'll end up with stilted or non-existent writing. + **Oh my God! No! Not the egg beaters!** +Never be afraid to be different. You may think that the inside of your mind is not fit to see the light of day, but trust me, there is much worse out here on the internet. Everyone has their own sick little fantasy and a lot of the readers on Lit are probably waiting for someone to write their own personal one. Never be afraid to write exactly what you're thinking about – there's probably someone out there who'll worship you for writing the story that he/she's been waiting for. I'm still waiting for someone to write the one with the credit-cards, the instant drying superglue and the small Panamanian dwarf named Tuscaloosa… +But I digress. + **And here we are at the Sex World Championships. The British team is looking very good this year, don't you think Bob?** +One of the more frequent mistakes that can be seen in Lit stories is the play- by-play. AFAIK, this is a Yank football term, but it fits quite well here. This is where the writer tells us exactly what the characters are doing, like he's a sports commentator giving radio coverage of the sex. + _He ran his hands over the upper hemisphere of her breast and used his fingers to tease her nipple. Then he kissed her neck, his lips slowly sliding down towards her chest, licking and sucking his way down her body. She groaned and put her hands on his back. He moved his other hand onto her hips, his fingers sliding inside her knickers._ +Well it's a good start for the young lad from Britain, don't you agree Bob? For those of you just coming in from work, we've just seen a beautiful bit of play to get her bra off and now, I think he's going to try and get his lips on her nipple. He's moving down her breast, beautiful mouth work there and he's found the nipple! What a good effort from Smith! Oh and you can see the crowd's excitement at that. +Play-by-plays can be identified by lots of sentences starting with he did this, she did that. Beware of this and try to spice up your work by telling us something apart from what their hands are doing. + **Mmm, that feels sooo good.** +The most important thing to describe is how things feel. The biggest organ in the human body is the skin and talking to your reader about how his touch sent sparks of electricity racing up your nerves as a warm flush radiated through your skin is always going to get a good reaction. People don't want to hear what your character is doing, they want to hear what it feels like. +Eg. Which would you rather read? + _He ran his hand over her breast, squeezing it gently_ or _She shuddered as his hand ran over her breast. Waves of excitement flooded through her body as he squeezed gently. She bit her lip and moaned in ecstasy._ + **What are you thinking about?** +Make sure you tell the reader what your characters are thinking. Sometimes that's half the fun. It is a bit of a difficult skill to get inside the heads of your characters, but well worth the effort of learning. People react better to realistic characters and the best way of making your characters real is by telling us what they're thinking. Another bonus is if you can make the sex seem dirty and forbidden to your characters, then it adds to the thrill of the reader. + **Where did that third hand come from?** +If you're struggling with a sex scene, then it may be because you have too many hands wandering around the place. Right, so his hand is on her breast, while her hand is on his dick and his other hand is squeezing her arse while simultaneously rubbing her clit. It can be very hard to keep up with what all of your characters are doing and you may end up putting your characters into an anatomically impossible situation or writing a play-by-play to ensure that everyone knows where the hands are. +A helpful hint for getting out of this predicament is to get rid of one of the sets of hands until you get in the mood. It's easier to work with if only one of your characters is actually doing anything. Start off by having him eat her out, or by her giving him a blowjob and you'll find it a hell of a lot easier. You don't have to worry about where the hands are going until you're nicely warmed up. Other variants include having her masturbate for him or using the perennial favourite sex-toy: handcuffs. + **Whose breast am I holding?** +Avoid lesbian threesomes. I'm not being discriminatory here, but you will thank me for this bit of advice. If you write in third person (he, she, it) then a lesbian threesome will result in a large number of 'she's, 'her's and name repetitions. +Regard: [i]""Tessa ran her hand over Bethany's breast, stroking her nipple. Jenna watched, as Tessa's hand ran over her body. She could feel herself getting wetter as she watched the two girls caress. +""You two look so hot,"" she said.[/i] +I struggled to make even that small paragraph comprehensible and I still ended up with 3 her's and 3 she's. Not to be tried at home. + **Hey, where did your bra go?** +Never forget to undress your characters. This sounds like a stupid thing to have to remind you of, but it is very useful. Some writers just strip their characters down in one sentence, something like 'They ripped off each other's clothes,' but I find it so much more fun to undress them slowly. Think about how much fun you get from undressing someone. Now put that into your writing. +This is also a superb opportunity to add in a little description. Mention things like: _'Her lacy white bra was a sharp contrast to the dusky skin of her breasts. Harry marvelled at how such a small piece of clothing could make her look so sexy. 'I wonder what she'd look like without the bra,' he wondered. Time to find out.'_ + **The attack of the killer adverbs.** +Slowly. Gently. Softly. Roughly. Adverbs are the tool of the devil. They look pretty to start off with, decorating your sentences so nicely, clarifying exactly what you mean. But then, they start taking over until every sentence has your character doing things softly and gently and slowly. Be very careful with adverbs or they'll eat you alive. + **Get on a roll.** +Don't stop in the middle of a sex scene. This may sound like a bit of an impossible request for those who type one-handed, but if you can last until the end of the scene, then it'll flow a lot better… I think I'll rephrase that. Whenever you stop in the middle of a sex scene, then you'll probably come back to it in a completely different mood to when you left. This is where sudden tone jumps and stilted writing come in. + **I shoved my turgid gearstick of joy into her throbbing tunnel of love.** +Try not to be creative with euphemisms. This kind of sentence will elicit nothing more than a snigger from a reader and you'll cringe when you re-read it in the cold hard light of day, when your hard-on/wet patch has disappeared. Stick to the main words for dick and pussy. +Which brings us on to: + **Choose your words carefully. They could be your last.** +Think about the pace of your sex scene. Are you writing a hard and fast rape scene? Or a slow and sensuous seduction. Choosing the right words can make a scene flow just that little bit better. There are so many synonyms for dick and pussy that it can be difficult to choose which ones to use. Choose two or three which you think fit the pace and characters of your scene and then stick to them. If you're writing about an innocent virgin who's decided to experiment for the first time, then she'd use the words vagina, penis and breasts. If you're writing about a sadistic rapist, then he'd probably use the words cunt, dick and rack. Tailor your vocabulary to your characters. +Whatever you do, don't switch without a very good reason. If you start off with vagina and penis, don't switch to cunt and cock halfway through. It's disconcerting. Having said that, switching can create a good effect if used well. I recently wrote a story about a very undersexed woman who ate an aphrodisiac ice-cream, growing gradually hornier and hornier throughout the story as she lost her inhibitions. She started off the story with vagina and then moved onto pussy. +And lastly: + **Be individual.** +To paraphrase an infamous Author's Hangout saying: it's all just Tab A into Slot B in the end. Make yours different. Add something that'll make your story stand out in the crowd. Don't just have 'they meet, they shag, they fall asleep in each other's arms.' Make it that they meet and he's a criminal and she's a bounty hunter (Sorry, just been reading Janet Evanovitch). She slaps the cuffs on him and tells him she's taking him in, unless… +I've written stories about the consequences of sex with a Satyr, with an insane witch, with a girl who's been given into slavery by her husband and about masturbation with a complete stranger on an airplane. It's all just Tab A into Slot B. The skill is all in the disguise. +I hope this helps. If you want to scream abuse/thank me/propose, then as always I can be reached at the address in my profile.

""Hell if I know!"" +I'm an intuitive writer. I sit down and I write. I'm not entirely sure how I do what I do, and when someone asks me to try to break it down, I'm often at a loss. For me, it's like telling someone how to breathe. You just...do it. +But if I'm forced to try to explain how it is I get from point A to point B (I'm having scary ninth grade ""show your work"" math flashbacks now) I can do it. Eventually. So this is how I do it. It may not be how you do it, or how anyone else should do it. It's just how I do it, and maybe that will help you, or someone else, get there too. +\--------------------------- +THEY'RE ALIVE! Your characters are alive and they are not the sum of their parts. They aren't measurements or hair color or penis size. I've done sex scenes without mentioning any of the above. Don't ask, ""What would my character do in this situation?"" Let them act. Let them decide. Let them speak. Let them feel. Especially let them feel. +GET TURNED ON If you're bored writing a sex scene, your readers will be bored. If you're turned on, your reader will be turned on. The emotion you are feeling will be conveyed on paper. It's a natural law of the writer universe. (This applies to any scene, not just sex ones, by the way. If it moves you to tears, it will move the reader as well). +DON'T STOP If you're turned on during a sex scene, really getting into it, your fingers flying over the keyboard, unless the house is on fire or we're under nuclear attack, DON'T STOP. Never, ever stop in the middle of a sex scene. (This rule also applies well to actual sex). You will lose your momentum, and it won't be the same when you come back to it. Your mood will have shifted, and the reader will feel it. +LUST Human beings want. Our entire culture and economy is based on desire. We lust after the things we want. We dream about them. We fantasize about them. We want. And we want. And we want some more. Our bodies and our brains are hardwired for desire. We don't just eat once and then we're done. We don't just have one orgasm and then it's all over. We continue to crave what we want. Our emotions rule us, especially when it comes to sex. They're naturally going to rule your sex scene, too. We don't insert tab A into slot B because we're following a blueprint manual. There's a reason behind our physical responses, and that reason is always, always tied to emotion. Remember that. Use it. +Desire is what makes the sex hot. Make your readers wait for it. Foreplay begins with seduction, not with sex acts. It begins with eye contact. Flirting. Innuendo. It progresses, but slowly. Tease your readers. Tease yourself. Draw it out. Make it a long, slow burn. The best orgasms are the ones we wait a long time for. It's no different when writing sex than it is doing it, really. +DON'T BE AFRAID Don't be afraid of the sex. Don't be afraid of the fluids, the flesh, the human expression of our bodies. It is what it is. Some writers will tell you not to ever speak of bodily fluids. They're above all that messy stuff. Thankfully, erotica and erotic romance have come a long way, baby. We can use the words cock and pussy now, and I would encourage you to do so. I wouldn't suggest using the medical terms, however (i.e. penis and vagina) or euphemisms like ""member"" or ""sheath."" Cock and Pussy are good. Think of them like peas and carrots. They go together. A few (and I mean a FEW) other words can work for a little variety. Prick or dick for example. Or cunt. No, don't be afraid of the words we use during sex. It's okay to talk dirty. ""Please,"" or ""Now,"" or ""Suck me,"" or ""Lick me,"" or ""Harder. There. More."" These are words we've all spoken (I hope!) They naturally arouse. That's a good thing. I'm not afraid of cum -- I'm not even afraid of spelling it ""wrong."" You shouldn't be either. +THE GRAND FINALE Once you reach the point of no return, you've built up to the sex, you've teased your readers (and your poor characters) enough, now it's time to give them what they want. This is not the time to skimp. You can't gloss over the orgasm. (Or orgasmS). We all (hopefully!) know what an orgasm feels like. Description doesn't have to be technical here. There are spasms and contractions, there is throbbing and trembling, gasps, moans—the combinations are endless. You can and should include those, but don't be afraid to move into the realm of metaphor. Sex can be like flying. It can be like falling. It can be like dying. This is the culmination of everything, the point you've been waiting for, working toward. Let your imagination go as wild as you would during an actual orgasm. Let yourself free. +DEFYING THE LAWS OF PHYSICS AND OTHER MISHAPS On a practical note -- your characters shouldn't defy the laws of physics. Women cannot take twelve inches of hot man meat down their throats. An average vagina is only four inches deep. 44DD breasts cannot defy gravity. And if you're using any of the above descriptions in your sex scenes, you need a basic writing course, not a primer on sex scenes. Also, don't let your character's clothes go missing. She can't be wearing pantyhose one second and be taking it from behind the next. The clothes have to come off and be accounted for somehow. Trust me, your readers will notice if they aren't. +\--------------------------- +So that's it. It's not rocket science (or ninth grade math). That's how I get from point A to point B—from a blank page to hot, sweaty sex scenes. Really, it's no different from any other type of writing. I don't write sex scenes any differently than I do scary ones or sad ones or violent ones. It comes from a place within me that is beyond me, beyond all of us, and I think as writers, we all know when we have tapped into that place. It feels a little like flying. Like falling. Like sex. Trust yourself. Breathe. And write. If your characters are alive, if you live and feel the sex scenes in the story yourself, I promise you that they will also come to life for your readers." +938,Writing Realistic Female Dominance,stlgoddessfreya,How To,2015-01-20,2015-01-20,2022-01-04 08:43:02,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/writing-realistic-female-dominance,The Three R's to give your femdom scene the detail it needs.,"['Bdsm', 'Cfnm', 'Domestic Discipline', 'Female Dominance', 'Femdom', 'Lifestyle', 'Male Submission', 'Relationship']",4.78,"**Scene 1** +I couldn't believe I was doing it, even as I followed the tall blonde in the black PVC catsuit to the door with ""Private"" written over the door in tilting red script. I just went to the sex club to watch, at least that was my plan, but as soon as I saw her demonstrating the proper way to flog a man in a kneeling position, I knew I would be on my knees for her by the end of the night. I couldn't see anything inside the private room after she disappeared into the shadows. +""Close the door behind you, then turn around and press you palms and forehead to the wood,"" she commanded from the dark. I didn't hesitate to obey. Her catsuit creaked as she stepped up close behind me and ran her hands over the backs of my arms and shoulders to measure my compliance. She pushed even closer, using her chest and hip to pin me hard against the door. Her breath tickled my ear. +""Spread your legs. I want to inspect what you're offering. See if it's worth my time."" I moved my feet apart, the fabric of my pants stretching tightly across my erection. She reached between my legs from behind me with one hand and cupped her palm roughly against my balls before squeezing my stiff cock through my pants. I groaned. Without a word, she unbuckled my belt, unzipped my pants, then pumped my burning cock in her fist. I was too turned on to resist her squeezing, stroking fingers and soon I was shuddering against her while thick spurts of my cum painted the door. She stepped away from me and pushed me to my knees. My eyes had adjusted well enough to the darkness of the room to look back over my shoulder to see her sit down in a chair. She crossed one glossy leg over the other and watched me. +""Lick that mess up so we can get started. At least now you won't come first thing."" +I stared at my come, sliding slowly down the door. Was I really going to do this? I didn't even know her name. + **Scene 2** +Everything was in place for my anniversary surprise. My parents picked the kids up from school and were under strict orders not to call until Sunday night unless someone lost a limb. Takeout from the restaurant where we went on our first date fifteen years ago waited on plates in the oven. Champagne was chilling in the refrigerator. All I needed now was my husband. +""I'm home,"" he called, as he came in the door. I sat on the couch in the living room and listened to him stomp slush off his boots before leaving them in the mudroom. ""Gina?"" +""In here,"" I replied, smiling. He still had no idea. +""Where are the kids?"" +""With my folks for the weekend. I have you all to myself."" I set my face into an expression of imperious serenity as he popped out of the hallway. He stopped dead when he saw me in my white silk robe, the golden threads of the embroidered pattern catching the afternoon light. My curly black hair was pinned on my head with golden combs, a few ringlets framing my face. My makeup was light, except for my shocking red lips. He was so surprised to see me in my special clothes somewhere other than the bedroom that his mouth was literally hanging open. ""Your awe is noted,"" I purred, fixing him with a heavy-lidded gaze, ""but your supplication is lacking."" +He was on his hands and knees at once, crawling across the floor to me. He kept his eyes on my feet. +""Please forgive me, my Goddess. Please forgive your worthless servant. I was so taken with your beauty that I forgot to pay proper respect."" +""Is forgetfulness an excuse for disrespect?"" +""No, my Light, it is not."" His voice squeaked a little coming out. He was ashamed and apprehensive. +""With no excuse, the just thing for me to do would be to punish you, would it not?"" +""You are always just, my Goddess. I deserve punishment. But I beg you to have mercy on me. Please, allow me to show you my love and devotion. If you will allow me to touch and kiss your feet, I promise I will show the proper respect this time."" +I stroked his cheek with my bare toes. ""I will allow it. Go retrieve your footbath basin from the bathroom. Change into the clothes I have laid out for you on the bed."" +He sighed and rubbed his cheek against the top of my foot, still careful to avert his eyes. ""Yes, my Goddess. Thank you for your sweet mercy to this poor supplicant."" +**** +These two very different scenes represent just two possible facets of the hundreds of scenarios that fall under the blanket definition of female domination. Femdom scenes are far more common as fantasy than reality. In a 2014 survey that's forthcoming in The Journal of Sexual Medicine, 53.3% of the men surveyed had fantasies of being dominated sexually. In a 2009 survey published in The Journal of Sex Research using a similar sample size and makeup of participants, women rated fantasy scenarios of female sexual dominance much lower than fantasies of female sexual submission and further indicated that they were far less willing than the male participants to want to make their fantasies a reality. With such a wide gap between the number of men who fantasize about femdom and the number of women who are willing to be sexually dominant, it's a fantasy many have but few realize. +Writing for Literotica is one way to explore that fantasy and bring it to others. Why aim to write realistically when fantasy is the ultimate goal? Your audience falls into one of two categories: people who haven't had an experience like the one you're describing in your story or those who have. For those who have, details of your story that are too fantastic read the same way as stories that refer to 38D breasts being bigger that 32D breasts - it marks you as someone who probably doesn't have any experience with the real thing. The majority of your readers are going to be in the first group. Some readers love the outsized fantasy; they want every Domme to be a six-foot redhead with impossible proportions wearing shoes with heels higher than a human foot can arch. The majority, though, fantasize about having a real-life experience that's likely to be out of reach. Writing more realistic erotica makes it easier for them to identify with your characters. For authors concerned with painting a realistic picture of femdom encounter, it can be difficult to know where to start. +Realistic, resonant female domination writing is far more than accurately describing the feel of a flogger or the sheen of a pair of boots. The action, regardless of what it is, can always be broken down into the Three Rs that must be considered and addressed: Relationship, Ritual, and Release. + **Relationship** +The Relationship between the people in a femdom scene isn't just a question of whether they're strangers or established play partners, although that makes a difference for how comfortable they are with indicating consent non-verbally. There are also issues of actual power imbalances as the background for a scene, and exploring them makes the story not only more interesting but more realistic. +In Scene 1 above, the two characters are strangers who met in the sexually- charged atmosphere of a club. While it can be tempting to have a character so overwhelmed with desire that he throws caution to the wind, it's not realistic - a reader won't connect to a character who does something so far outside what he himself would do in the same scenario. The male character submits without actually voicing doubts to the Domme, but that doesn't mean he's not experiencing them. He's excited, but also hesitant. Showing his uncertainty about totally submitting shows how strong his desire is rather than taking away from it. +The fact that the two in Scene 1 don't know each other also means their play starts out with low-stakes testing of consent and boundaries. She goes into the room, but he has to follow her to continue. She tells him what to do, but he shows he accepts her dominance by doing it. It ends with her most extreme request, but she's not holding his hair and pushing his face into the door, she's giving him the choice to continue. It's not because she doesn't think she can do it. If anything, she's got greater power making him do it by calm request from across the room instead of using physical force. Because they have never played together before, she uses the most extreme instruction to test how sure he is before they move into the flogging he saw her give someone else earlier. +In Scene 2, the two characters are long married and obviously have played domination games with each other before. There's still an interesting element of novelty, though, since it's clear they have previously confined that kind of play to the bedroom and the husband is not expecting his wife to initiate the scene when she does. Because they trust each other and know their limits, they can realistically move directly into their scene as a surprise. There's no need for negotiation or either of them having trepidation about what they're doing, because the existing relationship makes it believable. +In Scene 1, there's not only a physical power imbalance but a social one, too. She's tall and strong enough to pin him against the door; he's already seen her flog another man. He's also a visitor to the sex club, there for the first time. She obviously has more experience than he does with the club and with femdom in general. These are small details, but they make the imbalance between them clear without either of them saying anything about it. +Other types of natural power imbalances that fit this model: boss and employee; strict governess/teacher and student; superior officer and subordinate; policewoman and prisoner/suspect; mother and son; nurse and patient; queen/lady and servant. +Don't just stop with natural power imbalances, though. Interesting stories can also come from inverting what would normally be a power imbalance in favor of the sub outside of the femdom scene. Inversions: employee who catches the boss doing something he shouldn't or discovers his submissive sexual tendencies; a student who masters her teacher; a suspect in for questioning who uses her dominance to bend a policeman to her will; a daughter who runs the roost over her doting father; a chambermaid who makes the randy lord her sex slave. +In Scene 2, there's no apparent power imbalance in the relationship itself at all. If anything, seeing the amount of preparation the Domme has put into making sure they will both have a pleasant anniversary highlights the lengths she goes to satisfy him as well as herself. This isn't the only way to write a long-term femdom relationship. What about the family where stay-at-home-dad is wearing a chastity device and panties under his jeans and polo? The boss who always lets his employees go early on Friday afternoons because he's got a standing date with the cleaning lady and her strap-on? Maybe the couple that switches off who's dominant based on which of their apartments they are staying in that night? Femdom fits into all kinds of existing relationships, with any kind of external power dynamic imaginable, so long as the details are consistent. +Another question of relationship is whether or not the people involved are being themselves (or a close version) or whether they're playing roles. In Scene 1, the narrator and Domme seem to be themselves; In Scene 2, the couple is playing the roles of Goddess and supplicant. Clear roleplay offers another opportunity to explore the difference between who your characters are outside the bedroom and who they are inside the scene. As in Scene 2, it doesn't take extensive backstory to set up the difference between the two. +The thing to remember for realistic femdom writing is that your characters are people before, during, and after the scene. They have relationships, fears, comfort levels, and reactions. The more you explore them, the more they become relatable characters instead of just bodies going through a shadow play. + **Ritual** +The core of femdom erotica is the ritual itself. ""Ritual"" doesn't mean doing exactly the same every time/ Even if it was your heart's exact desire, it would get old after a while. Instead, ritual means the kind of dominance, how roles are established, how it begins and ends. The ritual is what sets a femdom scene apart from the rest of your characters' lives. This is what your readers, whether they love pure fantasy or like their erotica grounded in reality, are seeking and the details make all the difference. +Setting \- Where your characters are in space and time is important to establish before you think about other details. Are they in public or in private? Are they in a place where sex play is unacceptable and they could be caught? Are they both taking a risk? Is the place familiar and comfortable? +Time is also important. A governess giving the young adult lord a birching is based in reality if your story is set in the Victorian Era, but it's a woman playing a role at any later time. When the Domme in your story calls a man her slave, is she being literal? History, alternative history, and science fiction can be great outlets for settings where inherent power dynamics are different from modern times. +In Scene 1, the setting is sexually-charged from the beginning and sets up a power imbalance: she is comfortable there and finds it familiar, he's there for the first time. Though the scene starts with them playing in a private room, there's a public space just on the other side that could be used if she wanted a crowd. In Scene 2, the play is confirmed to be very private in a time and place where the Domme has had time to prepare for a specific ritual. It seems unlikely that the couple will leave the house all weekend +. +Wardrobe \- What your characters are wearing (or not wearing) goes a long way to establishing dominance and submission. Scene 1 has a Domme in very common clothing in erotica. But how many PVC catsuits and five-inch heels have you seen in real life? How many have your readers seen? Does it seem like comfortable clothing a woman in charge would choose, or something she'd only wear for a male fantasy? +It's not that fetish wear and lingerie aren't appropriate or sexy for Dommes to wear. A woman owning, even flaunting her sexuality is a kind of power in itself, and nothing establishes that a scene is sexual and signifies that a role is being assumed or that a ritual is starting faster than describing the Domme wearing clothes she would never wear in regular life. Power is important, though, and for a realistic Domme, her sex appeal comes from her authority, not the other way around. The clothing details that make stories unrealistic and less relatable to me as a reader are the ones that indicate a woman has less power, not more. The domineering boss in the corner office doesn't show a lot of cleavage or wear a miniskirt to work unless her sexuality is how she got where she is. Who has more authority, a woman wearing a latex ""naughty nurse"" outfit or a woman in a crisp cotton nurse's uniform snapping on a latex glove? +In Scene 1, the Domme's outfit makes sense for where she is and what she's doing. It sends the right message because she's in a place reserved for the kind of sex she wants to have. In that setting, her clothes mark her as belonging, his street clothes mark him as an outsider. It also serves as a kind of armor, which emphasizes her physical dominance. Her skin only touches his in the ways she chooses, while his skin is available to her. In Scene 2, the Domme wears an opulent, comfortable robe and has bare feet, which fits not only her Goddess role but the type of rituals that they're going to engage in, foot and body worship. Both women are wearing costumes that show their dominance, but both would be out of place wearing the other's outfit. +What about the subs? What clothing enhances their role in the ritual? After reading Scene 1, do you have any doubt he's going to be taking off some or all of his clothes after he accepts her challenge? In Scene 2, even though the clothes she's laid out on the bed for him are not described yet, do you think he's going to come out wearing more or less than he went into the bedroom wearing? For male subs, nudity is the visual shorthand for submission. It's so powerful that there's a whole genre of stories based around just that aspect: clothed female(s), naked male. Other than nudity or partial nudity, feminizing clothing is the biggest category of ritual clothing. Anything from a pair of panties to a full sissymaid outfit with petticoats, stockings, and high heels show clear male submissive roles. +Clothing for the sub, just like clothing for the Domme, has to fit the ritual. An elaborate outfit or a collar in Scene 1 doesn't make any sense for the setting, the amount of time the Domme has had to plan, or the relationship between the two. In Scene 2, though, an elaborate outfit makes sense for all the reasons it doesn't make sense in the first scene. The husband could come out of the bedroom wearing a simple loincloth or a complex leather harness, sandals, and collar. +Avoid just listing the clothing people are wearing. In Scene 1, the sight and sound of the Domme's clothing add to the sensory description of the scene. As that story progressed, there would be more descriptions of how the PVC felt against the sub's mouth and tongue, how it tasted, what it looked and like when he was in different positions. +Script \- How much do your characters speak to each other and how do they talk when they do? The script is where roleplay comes in more than any other part of the ritual: the script is what makes a modern Domme with a cane in her hand a nun punishing a pupil, the lady of the house disciplining her servant, or an amazon delivering the stinging punishment he so richly deserves. +In Scene 1, the sub doesn't speak at all. Part of the way the Domme takes control of the scene is by knowing what to say, because the sub doesn't know what he's doing or what comes next. The two of them have not moved into any roles that we see in the scene other than sexually adventurous versions of themselves. +In Scene 2, the script is the biggest part of the ritual. The two characters speak in a completely different, way when they're in the scene versus their casual conversation when he first comes into the house. Their roles are established immediately through the language that they use: she's a Goddess and he's a supplicant, trying to worship her. She uses the script, not physical force, to dominate him. Her questions demand his response, but the way she asks them doesn't leave anything open to his interpretation or input. It's clear from the formal way of speaking and the vocabulary that includes multiple ways of referring to each other that they have developed these roles and rituals over time. +One of the most important things to parse when making a realistic femdom script is what the characters call each other. ""Mistress"" would work well for either Scene 1 or Scene 2, but doesn't work for a medical, caretaking, or education scene. ""Miss"" works for a strict teacher or strong-arming nurse, but not for the goddess in Scene 2 or the dominatrix in Scene 1 (unless she made him use it ironically). Don't be afraid to get creative or use the same terms from languages other than English. ""Domina"" is perfect for a Roman slave scene or a goddess; ""Madame"" works for a woman with a penchant for tall boots and short whips; ""Signora"" is ideal for a demanding inspector of domestic servitude. All of them just mean ""lady"" in Latin, French, and Italian, respectively, but their connotation brings different, richer meanings. +Humiliation \- Not every femdom scene requires humiliation, and too much humiliation turns some readers off. The thing to remember about the level of humiliation involved is that it's purely contextual; there is no inherently humiliating act. +In Scene 1, for example, the sub licking his own cum off the door is humiliating but only because he hesitates. If he had dropped to his knees and lapped it up without being told and showed no conflict or shame, it would carry a totally different emotional weight than it does in the actual scene. Similarly, if the Domme was crouched over him with her fist bunched up around a handful of his hair and he was begging to do anything but lick his gross spunk off the nasty sex club door, the exact same act is extremely humiliating. +In Scene 2, the sub crawling on his hands and knees then rubbing his face against the Domme's foot is sweet, even romantic. Their script doesn't emphasize that position or act as one of humiliation, but as natural. Now, imagine the exact same thing happening in Scene 1 at the Domme's command. Not nearly so sweet, is it? +What about more extreme examples, like pegging or enemas? Aren't those inherently humiliating? It's certainly easier to make those acts express humiliation, so not much else needs to be included in the script to get that point across. What if the act is hot but its humiliation aspect is not, or doesn't fit the relationship? Have your characters talk about and react to the act like it isn't humiliating or shameful and you rob it of other connotations. A Domme putting on her strap-on and emphasizing in her script that fucking the sub with it is a coveted reward for his obedience, or even having her use the strap-on in a face-to-face position, takes the humiliation out of the act. An enema for a grateful sub as part of a bathing ritual, treated as a purification of the body instead of a test of endurance isn't humiliating. If an act fits your story but usually carries an air of humiliation that doesn't fit, don't give up on it. +Acts \- The most important part, right? Maybe not. The complete act of a femdom scene might be the sub masturbating while the Domme instructs him in what to do on the phone. What makes that a true ritual instead of just phone sex is everything else around it. Any sex act can be made into a hot, realistic femdom scene if the details are right, no bondage or whips necessary. +Some sex acts are going to take more work than others to come off as showing female authority. Think about the effect of feminine clothing on a male sub to show his status - the same thing doesn't happen when a female sub wears masculine clothes. If anything, a woman wearing traditionally masculine clothes, it marks her as having more authority. The same thing is true for sex acts that have a presumption of penetrating/masculine/dominant and penetrated/feminine/submissive that can be overcome by the right script. Dommes giving subs oral sex, rimming them, or letting a sub penetrate them vaginally can all be acts of dominance. +I had a discussion with a friend recently about whether or not receiving anal sex could be an act of dominance. This is the script I wrote, a variation on Scene 2, to show him how it might work: +""Initiate, are you worthy of tasting me?"" +""No, my Goddess."" +""But I allow you to provide me oral servitude?"" +""Yes, my Goddess."" +""Why is that?"" +""Your mercy, my Goddess."" +""My mercy and my pleasure. Do you long to please me, Initiate?"" +""More than anything, my Goddess."" +""Good. It pleases me now to have a cock inside me. Initiate, are you worthy of putting your cock inside me?"" +""No, my Goddess."" +""That is correct. But you are mine to do with as I please."" +""Always, my Goddess."" +""It pleases me to use you in this way."" +""Thank you, my Goddess."" +""But you are in no way worthy of putting your cock inside my most holy place. That is meant for my own fingers and blessed instruments."" +""How can I please you then, Goddess?"" +""Lay down. I will use you to fill me in other ways."" +There, the foundation is laid for the Domme to have what she wants on her terms, for her pleasure. Maintain it with the position, something that gives her control over depth and speed of thrusts, and even taking it in the ass can emphasize her authority. +Worried about writing realistic femdom scenes because you've never personally experienced rope bondage, flogging, chastity devices, or any of the other things that are ""supposed to be"" in femdom? Don't worry about it. Write about the acts that turn you on or turn on the readers you want to reach. Writing about acts you have experienced first-hand will always give you a deeper well of realistic details to draw, and those are the real power behind getting your reader to relate to the scene. + **Release** +If the Relationship is the beginning and the Ritual is the middle, Release is the end of a realistic femdom scene. Only pure fantasy involves the Domme getting everything and the sub getting nothing, since no one would consent to a completely one-sided sexual experience. Release is where the sub is rewarded in the way the sub values, but it's always the Domme's decision to end the scene in a controlled way. +Release is not always orgasm and orgasm is not always Release. In Scene 1, the Domme brings the sub to orgasm as a preliminary matter. What he really wants may be an orgasm, but it won't be until he experiences a much greater intensity of submission and sensation. She might not let him come for the rest of the night then order him not to come until he sees her at the club the next week. The story doesn't have to follow him until the next week for the scene to be complete, so long as her controlling his orgasm and continuing their relationship is what he wants. If not, he has no reason to listen to her and her authority is broken because she's not doing what she's supposed to do in fulfilling his desires as well as her own. +In Scene 2, the sub may come many times over the course of the weekend, just once at the end, or not at all, depending on what he finds most pleasurable. It makes a big difference if what she has laid out for him on the bed includes a chastity device. What's clear from her prior preparation, though is that they are going to share a meal and champagne at some point that night, so there's going to be a controlled end to the scene and return to their normal roles. +You bring your reader through the same arc as your characters: building excitement, fulfilling excitement, and allowing excitement to have a satisfying end before returning to the baseline state. A clear release is particularly important for femdom scenes where the characters are roleplaying, so they can return to their usual personalities and relationship. Even in stories about couples who live a femdom lifestyle 24/7, they have to stop to fold the laundry and attend parent-teacher conferences. Pay attention to Relationship, Ritual, and Release and you'll give your readers a more realistic, satisfying way of living their fantasies." +939,Writing Sci-Fi,al_Ussa,How To,2010-07-31,2010-07-31,2022-01-04 08:43:03,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/writing-sci-fi,A brief guide for aspiring authors.,"['Alien Sex', 'Cyberpunk', 'Faq', 'How To', 'Sci-Fi', 'Science Fiction', 'Space Opera', 'Time Travel']",4.29,"Sci-fi... science fiction. The very word conjures to mind spaceships, intergalactic civilization, laserbeams and robots. Or, maybe it just conjues up images of slightly overweight nerds in glasses who are obsessed with TV shows and live in their parents basement. Which is unfortunate, even if there is some grain of truth in it. +I'll admit it. I'm a little nerdy at times. I got good grades in school, I read science fiction novels, played D&D, and watched Star Trek. I still have a Star Trek t-shirt in my closet. Hell, I even wear glasses. +But you know what? I'm proud to be a nerd. And if you are reading this little 'how-to' guide that I've put together, then you probably are too. Go on. Admit it. There's no shame in that. We nerds have got plenty to be proud of. We practically invented the internet! We put out thousands of novels, comics, movies, TV shows and (let's admit it) fan fictions every year! We even have a whole channel dedicated to us! So be proud; you're in good company. +And now that we've got that out of the way, let's get onto the real meat: actually writing science fiction. +As the name might suggest, in the most basic form, science fiction is a particular genre of fiction which deals with science. Just how accurate said 'science' is varies from story to story. Certain tropes and even styles have come to focus on particular issues like time travel, alien life, parallel universes and the like, but really none of these things are necessary. A great many science fiction stories are set in the future, or at least the near future, but even this is not required. +Really, the first thing you need to do is find some spark or inspiration. This is no different from any other story, of course, but a science fiction story should always be centered around some scientific development or breakthrough. This need not even be the central theme of the story. In a world where cybernetic implants or extraterrestrial visitation are commonplace, one can still explore all the complexities of daily human life and passion. The only real difference is that now you have some fantastic element to use as a plot device. +And even then, this need not be too outlandish. Perhaps you envision a post- apocalyptic world where radiation-scarred mutants dominate society, or life amongst settlers on a recently terrformed Mars. But, maybe you want to do something a little more low key. A story exploring the ramifications of current events such as cloning, genetic engineering or antimatter need not take place in a world dramatically different from our own. +The best advice I can give for inspiration is to look at current scientific developments. For example, Michael Crichton's 'Jurassic Park' deals with cloning and modern interpretations of dinosaurs, and it was an absolutely brilliant book (and a good movie too). If you look through newspapers, as well as magazines like National Geographic, Scientific American, Smithsonian and the like, you can find any number of news items and articles to take inspiration from. A trip to your local library might uncover a few gems, and the internet is a gold mine. When it comes to science, most of the important things come from journals as books tend to be outdated or disproven pretty quickly. Fortunately most of these journals are online these days. +But you need to be burdened down by accuracy. Yes, if you are going to be writing about the subject it couldn't hurt to get some basic understanding of astronomy, chemistry, geology, biology, mathematics and the like. But you shouldn't feel like you need an advanced degree in quantum physics either. That's why we are talking about science FICTION here guys, not peer-reviewed scientific journals. Having your terminology and basic facts makes a story more believable but you will presumably be playing with some our basic assumptions. +Case in point, Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein,' which is a classic and has been adapted (and spoofed) in film, television and popular culture. You probably know the basic plot: Dr. Victor Frankenstein sews together a patchwork man out of cadavers and brings him to life. What you may not know is that Mary Shelley wasn't quite sure about how she could explain it through 'science'. Rather than being daunted by this, she simply glossed over the process, describing it as a perverse blend of 'science' and 'alchemy'. And it didn't take anything away from the story. +Be somewhat consistent with the 'science' in your fictional universe and at least have a grasp of the basic terminology and you will be fine. If you are going to post it on the internet, be aware that many self-styled critics and 'experts' will probably point out every little mistake that you made. You have a couple choices on how to react to this, but my best advice is to develop thick skin. Don't let their comments get to you. Besides, as I said before, you aren't dealing with actual 'science'. You are writing fiction and shouldn't be afraid to toy with the basic laws of the universe. +Far, far more important is developing an interesting story with three dimensional characters, each with their own personality, voice and (dare I say it) character. The 'science' elements of your story should never overshadow the fact that you are writing a story about people... or mutants, aliens, robots, cosmic entities from a parallel dimension, etc. Its far better to use the fantastic 'science' elements as a plot device to move the story forward, to add to the dilemmas the characters face, and to create situations which they must react to. +Does your story take place in space? Then how have the characters adapted their daily routines to zero gravity? Or is your story set in a post- apocalyptic world? If so, maybe you should plan out the events that led to this apocalypse, even if your readers won't be aware of this. It helps to add depth to the fictional universe, and to keep it fairly consistent. Don't be afraid of paradoxes either. It's completely acceptable to limit characters by saying that certain actions would have disastrous consequences, up to and including destroying reality itself. +Perhaps you remember the 'Back to the Future' franchise? That would actually be a prime example of this. When Marty McFly went back in time to 1955, he accidentally tampered with the past, which almost caused him to cease existing. This is a more contemporary take on an old mainstay of science fiction. Ray Bradbury wrote a similar story in 'A Sound of Thunder,' which detailed a group of big game hunters going back in time to hunt dinosaurs. Despite precautions meant to ensure that they wouldn't change the past, one of the hunters accidentally steps on a butterfly, ultimately changing the future. +So let your imagination run wild. As long as you have a good idea, you're great. But before you get started, I'd like to introduce a few of the more well known 'sub-genres' of science fiction. Some of them may be familiar – like old friends from the sci-fi section of your book store or the video rental shop – while others may be new to you. Hopefully it will provide you with some new ideas that you might not have otherwise considered. + **Hard Sci-Fi** +""Hard"" sci-fi refers to a sub-genre based around the physical sciences, such as physics, chemistry, astronomy, geology, mathematics and the like. It is based very much on the actual science, and as such requires a little more research and dedication than other genres of science fiction. Still, it is fiction and can (and does) have the fantastic elements common to other sci-fi stories. The key difference is that it tends to be much more grounded in reality, so no laserbeams, psychic powers or intergalactic battles. The best examples of this would be Arthur C. Clarke's 'A Fall of Moondust,' Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars Trilogy and the short story 'The Cold Equations' by Tom Goodwin. + **Space Opera** +If hard sci-fi can be understated and grounded in reality, then space opera would be the complete opposite. Such stories are generally set in the distant future, when intergalactic travel is not only achieved, but has become common place. Such stories often involve numerous world or galaxy spanning civilizations, alien races and larger-than-life characters. Often set in space, the plots to these stories can be long, complicated and span worlds or even galaxies. Think of popular TV shows like Star Trek, Firefly and Babylon 5, as well as E. E. ""Doc"" Smith's Lensman series and Frank Herbert's Dune. + **Science Fantasy** +Perhaps related to space opera, science fantasy is a particular sub-genre which involves more fantasy and less science. Such a setting might be characterized by advanced technology, space travel and alien races, but has decidedly un-scientific elements like 'magic' as a heavy plot device. Like space opera, such stories tend to be over-the-top with epic characters and world shaking events. But they tend to draw as much from Joseph Campbell and world mythology as from hard science. In case you haven't guessed, the best example would be the Star Wars, but literary examples also exist, like Edgar Rice Burrough's John Carter adventures and Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern series. + **Cyberpunk** +Grounded more towards the hard science end of the spectrum, cyberpunk is an old and very popular type of science fiction based around dystopian futures in which robots and/or cybernetic technology has become common place. Obviously the abuse of technology and the human body is a major theme in this sub-genre, and it is very much characterized by a certain gritty, depressing mood reflecting the social disparity of the setting. William Gibson's Sprawl trilogy, Max Headroom, Blade Runner, animes like Akira and Ghost-in-the -Shell, and the RPGs Cyberpunk and Shadowrun are prime examples. Indeed, cyberpunk has spawned its own subculture, and if you plan to write it, you would do well to research their particular aesthetic. + **Time Travel/Alternative Histories** +Almost two separate fields, both relate to the question of what would happen if you changed this or that. Time travel involves taking a person from one time period (past, present or future) and putting them in another. Often, it involves some sort of machine but I've seen a few creative alternatives. Our time-traveler then has to face various problems (possibly monsters like the Morlocks) and find their way home without changing the timeline. Examples of this would include Ray Bradbury's 'A Sound of Thunder,' H.G. Well's 'The Time Machine,' Michael Crichton's 'Timeline' and (to a degree) Doctor Who. +Alternative histories are similar to this in many ways, except that they extrapolate outward from changing one (or more) important historic event. What if the South won the American Civil War and ceded from the Union? What if Alexander didn't die and finished his conquest upon returning from the East? What if the Soviet Union was still around? We'd live in a vastly different world, and while it may not involve robots or aliens, it's still sci-fi. Philip K. Dick's 'The Man in the High Castle' explores one such world in which the Axis powers won the Second World War. + **Pulp** +Again, 'pulp' is a pretty broad term which almost demands its own genre. There are consistent tropes and themes that reoccur in pulp adventures, and many common stock characters. But until, let's treat it as a kind of science fiction. Modern pulp stories try and capture the feel of adventure and detective stories popular in the early twentieth century. Serialized in magazines and dime novels, these lurid, two-fisted adventures tend to focus on heroes who are larger than life and often involve elements of the fantastic. Psychic powers, exotic locations, martial arts, pseudo-science and dangerous dames are all common elements. If you are familiar with Doc Savage, The Shadow, Flash Gordon or pretty much anything published in 'Weird Tales' then you know what I am talking about. As with certain other sub-genres, you really need to capture a certain aesthetic in order to do these stories justice. + **Superheroes** +The natural legacy of the earlier pulp adventures, superheroes such as those found in the pages of Marvel and DC comics have become a mainstay of modern pop culture. While you can still find the stereotypical muscle-bound men in spandex and capes, the classical superhero has been forever changed by Alan Moore's gritty 'Watchmen.' Now you've got a darker, more cynical take on the genre which you can explore as well. If you are going to write a superhero, it's pretty much the same as other forms of sci-fi, but the story will be shaped by the hero and his superpowers (or lack thereof; Batman, one of the most familiar superheroes, has no innate powers and yet still manages to be interesting, fighting crimes with high-tech devices). + **Steampunk** +As the name implies, steampunk is a flavor of sci-fi based around clockwork and steam technology, usually set in a Victorian or pseudo-Victorian setting. Sometimes they involve alterative histories, but this is not always the case. While the level of technological development is important in these stories, the aesthetics and 19th century dress and etiquette matter just as much. Examples of this can be found in the works of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, Alan Moore's 'League of Extraordinary Gentlemen,' the Deadlands RPG and the excellent (if short-lived) 'Adventures of Brisco County Jr.' TV series. Again, if you want to write steampunk, it is essential to research the subculture first. + **Alien Conspiracies/Cover-Ups** +Since the X-Files came out, there has been a boom of sci-fi stories involving alien contact and the government cover-up. This is obviously connected with the popularity of such stories, starting with the alleged abduction of Betty and Barny Hill in 1961. Such stories take place in the present-era, and have a sinister tone with a shadowy military-industrial complex covering up the existence of aliens. Or perhaps even working in collaboration with them! If you intend to write on this, I would suggest reading up on alleged alien abductions, men-in-black, cattle mutilations and other elements of the UFO hunting subculture. The most obvious example of this in popular culture comes from the X-Files, as mentioned above, but there is no shortage. + **Experimental** +Perhaps the most difficult sub-genre to define, or write for that matter, experimental sci-fi has as much to do with the style of writing as the story itself. It often involves toying with some of the assumptions common to speculative fiction, and attempts to push the boundaries even further. I would suggest that you get a couple of stories under your belt before you try writing this sort of story, but whatever you feel most comfortable with is good. Examples would include writing a story from the point-of-view of a non- human entity or shifting time within the story itself. Difficult concepts to get your head around but still fun to think about. Just make sure that your audience can follow you. + **But What About Monsters?** +Horror and sci-fi are close; almost like siblings or lovers. It shouldn't be surprising, then, that it can be hard to separate the two. One thing I've often told people is that 'horror' involves monsters, be they real, physical monsters (Dracula, the wolfman, Freddy Kreuger, Pinhead) or figurative ""monsters"" that display all the worst traits of humanity (serial killers like Michael Meyers, Jigsaw or Norman Bates). The truth is that it's never so simple. +Science fiction frequently involves the question of alien races, or at least intelligent species other than humanity. Now, usually there is a pretty clear cut line. Nobody is going to claim that Vulcans, Ewoks or even Daleks are 'horror'. On the other hand, something like the movie 'Alien' has very clear elements of both horror and science fiction. Which one is it? Is it both? I would be inclined to say yes. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with crossing genres if you feel like it. Just be aware when you do so and you'll be fine, because a science fiction story is (at its core) simply a fiction story which features some element of fantastic science. It could be horror, but it could just as easily be romance, comedy or mystery. Take your pick. +The main difference between horror and sci-fi, in my opinion, has to do with how much you explore these elements. Perhaps by its very nature, science fiction is speculative and is concerned with the question of what is out there, or what is possible. Horror tends to be scary specifically because it is unknown. That is where these two categories begin to overlap, and when they do, you can get some fantastic results, such as 'Aliens,' 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' or the works of H.P. Lovecraft. Who said that aliens can't be 'scary'? +Of course, that said, there are just as many awful combinations of horror and sci-fi. Witness the travesties that were 'Jason X' and 'Leprechaun in Space'. Part of what made these so bad was the fact that they essentially just took the popular slasher character and dropped them in space with little to no real explanation. Sure, it might be fun for the camp value, but they aren't really memorable either. These should be textbook examples of how NOT to combine horror and sci-fi. + **Making Love in Space** +Since this is lit, I feel I would be remiss if I didn't at least mention this. If science fiction explores how people's daily lives might be affected by technological or scientific developments, then we absolutely must consider the question of sex (and sensuality). When we make first contact with aliens, someone will decide to have inter-species sex. Awesome, right? Well assuming all the parts are even compatible, what would be the ramifications of this? What if said species has completely different physical sexes beyond merely 'male' or 'female'? What if they are asexual and reproduce by budding off? Or what if they are parasitic? Hell, what about cross-species STDs? +Hopefully that got your mind running. Because science fiction is limited only by your imagination, there are infinite possibilities for describing and elaborating upon sex acts which would not be physically possible. The softcore porn spoof 'Flesh Gordon' is a good example of this, albeit rather light hearted and taken to the comedic extreme. Relationships between humans an aliens, or humans and robots, are but one of many, many possibilities. +Would humanity mass produce robots specifically for sex? How about clones bred exclusively to be concubines? In a world where cybernetic or even biological augmentations are common, what sort of fetishes might exist? What would sex in zero gravity be like? What would happen if you went back in time and became your own father? What would it be like to experience psychic sex? The list just goes on and on. And I'm sure that some of these have already appeared on literotica in some form or another, but there is still plenty of original material for you to come up with yourself. +In closing, I hope that this brief essay has given you some basic pointers and perhaps even some inspiration to start writing your own sci-fi, and maybe you would even be kind enough to share it with us here on lit. I in no way wish to limit your imagination, so go ahead. Be creative. There's an infinite number of possible alternate universes to explore..." +940,Writing Sex Scenes,WFEATHER,How To,2010-12-11,2010-12-11,2022-01-04 08:43:04,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/writing-sex-scenes,Elements to consider when writing sex scenes.,"['Author Advice', 'Author How-To', 'Sex Scene', 'Writing Advice', 'Writing Erotica', 'Writing How To']",4.58,"This is Literotica, meaning that virtually all of the stories here will include at least one sex scene. However, there are probably quite a few people who wish to submit a tale or two to Literotica, but feel that writing a sex scene is a daunting task. +To be honest, it is, even for those of us with a large number of submissions on Literotica. Sex is not a cookie-cutter activity, and writing a convincing sex scene is far from being a formulaic task. Further, those who participate in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) and its many unofficial spin-off contests may want to add a few sex scenes to their novels if for no other reason than to add precious word count, but even then, a sex scene still needs to be somewhat convincing in order to make sense within the larger work. +Although I have been writing erotica for more than seven years, I certainly cannot say that I am perfect in writing sex scenes, but I believe I have gained some insight which may be of benefit for those who want to make their first attempt at writing erotica. Specifically, there are seven elements which I have internalized and consider as I write a sex scene. +Discovery +First, sex is an activity in which people can discover a lot about each other. Taking that into consideration, there are a number of questions to ask oneself about the characters involved in the scene: +Is this the first time the characters have had sex together? If yes, then there is almost certainly a lot of discovery taking place, at least on a subconscious level, even if all the participants are very sexually experienced. For example, does a woman in the scene prefer penetration or clitoral stimulation, or perhaps both, to achieve orgasm? Does a man have a particular erogenous zone which will instantly put him in the mood (and perhaps work as a catalyst for the scene)? +How do the characters know each other? If they just met and are simply enjoying a one-night stand, that will probably guide the sex scene in a particular direction. If they are longtime lovers, they probably know seemingly everything about each other, in which case the sex scene may really be a way for them to focus on their intimate bond. If the characters are related by blood or are of vastly different ages or are at different levels of a hierarchy, that can absolutely cast a shadow over their intimate activities, which in its own way can lead to various discoveries. +Are the characters trying something new or different? If the scene marks the first sexual experience for one of the participants, that will be the predominant factor determining the progression of the scene. If a roleplay scenario is being explored, that can put some interesting twists on things, even if the participants are longtime sexual partners. The addition of new toys or implements, such as a wider-than-average dildo or a homemade sex machine or the use of a blindfold or the testing of a whip, can potentially add a lot of variety to their sexual interactions and thus provide some spice for the sex scene itself. +To borrow a BDSM term, what are the characters' limits, both soft limits and hard limits? In other words, what do they not like to do sexually and what will they absolutely not do sexually? If a scene involved approaching or especially transgressing one or more limits, there are a number of discoveries which can be made, especially on the psychological level. +Location +Equally important is location. Any particular grouping of characters can be placed in different locations for their sexual activities, and they will likely behave differently. For example, a foursome might take place in the living room of a frat house during a major party, surrounded by dozens (or more) students cheering them on, commenting to each other, and recording the spectacle (perhaps to be uploaded to a Web site later, either for blackmail or to legitimately make some extra money). The same foursome snowed in during a blizzard may have other issues at hand, such as more intimate lighting (with the scene taking place in front of a glowing fireplace), availability of scented massage oils, or the possibility of couples watching each other more closely. +In addition to behavior, each location has its own inherent characteristics which could be exploited in a sex scene. These characteristics could be physical objects, or they may be simply how the characters behave in each location. A professor and a student having sex at the professor's second home far away from the university will almost certainly feel more ""free"" to truly take their time and indulge in each other, whereas the same couple having sex in the professor's small campus office may be forced to have just a quickie while strategically positioned so that no one can look in the window and see them. Objects in each location may play a role in the sex scene: hiding behind large trees along a hiking trail, sharper-than-usual blades of grass pricking the skin when having sex in a field, accidentally knocking a book off a shelf while having sex in a library... and, of course, sex on a spacecraft could be nicely complicated by a lack of gravity. +Location can also impact whether and how the ""outside world"" intrudes on the characters. For an incest tale in which a brother and sister are in the basement engaging in foreplay, they might hear their parents walking around upstairs in preparation for a dinner party, for example. A sex scene in a hotel might include a siren from passing emergency vehicles. A scene focusing on joining The Mile High Club could include the pilot making an announcement about upcoming turbulence. +Mechanics +The relationship of the characters involved in a sex scene can be critical. If it is a duo, are they of the same or opposite sex? If there are multiple people involved, are they all of one sex or are both sexes represented? +Beyond the physical mechanics of sex between/amongst the characters involved, the overall situation can dictate mechanics of how sexual activity will occur. Is one character restrained, and how is that character restrained? +There may be other mechanics to consider beyond merely ""insert Anatomy A into Orifice B."" If a character is being whipped, for example, the type of whip and the type of restraint used (if any) can impact how the whipping itself occurs. For example, a man tied face-down to a bed or a table may be relatively easier to whip than a woman strung between two thick pillars. Certain whips have different types of pain, such as ""sting"" versus ""bite,"" and those types of pain will likely affect the reactions of the person being whipped. The weight and length of the tail(s) may also require varying mechanical tactics, both to prevent wearing out the arm of the person conducting the whipping and to ensure adequate space if long tail(s) are being used (such as with the stereotypical bullwhip). +Mechanics are also a consideration when there are multiple characters involved in the sex scene. For a male-female-male scene, for example, double penetration might be employed. For a female-male-female scene, however, the man may be thrusting into one of the women, but what is the second woman doing? +Where mechanics can really become quite interesting, both for the reader and the writer, is when non-humans are involved. Perhaps the most obvious example is the tentacle sex scenario common in a number of Japanese animated and live- action videos. An alien's form of mating is encumbered only by the writher's imagination, so pairing one or more aliens with one or more humans can provide some interesting challenges (ideally with inventive solutions!) for sexual mechanics. A shape-shifter can present other interesting mechanical issues, as potentially could a powerful mage or a playful deity. +Mood +The mood of a sex scene can be impacted by a number of factors. The first is the overall story itself, especially if it is a long tale such as a NaNoWriMo project. The second is the grouping of characters and their location and their level/amount of discovery - again, a foursome having sex at a frat party will likely experience a different mood than a foursome trapped in a cabin by a blizzard. +There is no reason why the mood of a sex scene must remain the same from beginning to end. If the tale is from the point of view of a woman is having sex for the first time, for example, the scene may begin with a nervous or even fearful mood, but then become happier and more romantic after her blood has been spilled; the moods in this scenario could be heightened by the characters' culture(s). In a tale featuring a rapist, the sex scene may begin with consensual sex, but then become violent and fearful when the rapist decides ""it is time."" A playboy might be having good, fun sex with his latest partner, and the mood may suddenly change because he inadvertently calls her ""Jenni"" instead of ""Tabitha."" +Mood need not be solely dependent upon the characters. Their surroundings can also set or enhance the mood: a small campfire, soft jazz music playing on the radio, the sound of a pounding bass line piercing the wall of a dorm room... Their location might also set the mood: a candlelight dinner, a themed room at a bondage club, an elevator in an office building... The relationship between the characters can also impact the mood: a professor's natural instinct to teach might impact how he shows his student his preferred masturbation technique, sisterly love may add an extra element of calm and peacefulness as two young women have sex, a corrupt police officer may purposely abuse her position to ""enjoy"" the body of a frightened suspect... +Dialogue & Writings +One mistake which many new erotica writers make is not using enough dialogue, or perhaps not using any dialogue. Whether during a sex scene or during a breakfast scene, dialogue can provide great insight into a character's mindset at that moment. Over the course of an entire scene or certainly an entire story, a character's vocabulary can also give the reader a better understanding of that character, and often, this is revealed through dialogue. A gang member may act tough and talk trash a lot when with other gang members, but during sex with the one person who matters most, the same character may instead talk calmly and sweetly, helping to underscore the shift of personality between those two situations. If nothing else, having the characters use ""sweet nothings"" during their sexual interlude provides some variety, some short visual breaks, from block after block of multi-sentence paragraphs. Similarly, onomatopoeic utterances, such as ""Nnngh!"" when attempting to hold back an orgasm or pleas of ""Harder!"" during sex, can help to highlight that character's reactions to the sexual experience. +Another way to reveal a character's mindset is to make use of the character's writings. These could be in the form of a love letter, or perhaps a note hidden where another character will find it. Making use of modern technology, other sources of writings include text messages, e-mails, status updates on Facebook and MySpace, and blog posts. The most important thing, of course, is to use forms of writing appropriate to the story's time period - unless part of the point of the story is a mixing of time periods. +Thoughts & Emotions +Especially important when the story is told in first-person viewpoint from the position of one of the characters, the use of characters' thoughts and emotions can add significant impact to a sex scene, and to a story in general. How this manifests itself may depend on the relationship between the characters, the events leading up to or potentially following the sex scene, and countless other factors. +By making use of thoughts and emotions, the writer can really help the reader to identify with the character (when told in first-person viewpoint) or characters (when writing from an omnipotent narrator viewpoint). A stereotypical scientist character, for example, will typically think of things logically and be rather analytical; in a sex scene, such a character may be constantly analyzing what is happening and almost literally be calculating what should happen when and how it should occur. +Emotions and thoughts can also be quite impactful for a scene. Even if the characters have been sexual partners for a long time, their emotions are quite likely to be happy and loving on their wedding night. Thoughts and emotions can help highlight the trauma of the victim in a rape scene, or the weirdness of a character being ensnared and penetrated by a semi-sentient vine. Yet emotions and thoughts can also show counterpoints, such as a Master's calmness and enjoyment as he hurts his willing submissive and revels in her physical torment; similarly, if written from the submissive's point of view, emotions and thoughts can be used to demonstrate that while her body is being tortured, she craves the pain and/or the attention administered by her Master. +First-person Knowledge +Whether in a sex scene or a ""mundane"" scene, one pitfall many writing newcomers make when writing in first-person viewpoint is to have that character somehow ""know"" what another character is thinking or feeling when there has been no logical means to obtain that knowledge. The best real-world example I can give comes from personal experience having run multiple traditional (pencil-and-paper) role-playing games. As the Game Master, I can set the overall scene of a battle from an omnipotent point of view, and the players' characters may scatter, taking cover behind various objects which prevent them from seeing each other. If Player A's character makes a particular move, Players B and C may erroneously react to that move, and as the Game Master, it is my job to challenge them (""Is that you reacting or your character reacting?""). +The same situation applies in writing from the first-person viewpoint. Character A can see and hear what Character B is doing, but unless Character B says something or makes a significant gesture or facial expression, Character A cannot know what is actually going through the mind of Character B. If that is difficult to follow, try this: +> _Example 1_ > > I stood behind her, my hands on her shoulders as we both looked up at the > third-floor window with the open curtains, watching as an exhibitionist > couple made love in plain view of anyone at the intersection who happened to > be looking up at them. Amanda was shocked, having never seen such a thing > before, and I smiled to myself, making a mental note that she and I should > do the exact same thing once we returned to the hotel. > > _Example 2_ > > I stood behind her, my hands on her shoulders as we both looked up at the > third-floor window with the open curtains, watching as an exhibitionist > couple made love in plain view of anyone at the intersection who happened to > be looking up at them. Amanda gasped aloud, then muttered something which > was just barely audible over the noise of the traffic whizzing past us; I > heard her say, ""How can they...!"" and ""I've never seen...!"" I smiled to > myself, making a mental note that she and I should do the exact same thing > once we returned to the hotel. +In the first example, the main character is clearly assuming to know what Amanda thinks when she sees the exhibitionists, but in the second example, the main character at least has her gasp and her mutterings as guides to what she is thinking upon seeing the exhibitionists. +This potential first-person pitfall is critical to keep in mind when creating a convincing sex scene, and a convincing story overall. For the reader who simply wants a short wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am tale, a first-person ""assumption"" such as in Example 1 is not likely to be an issue, but for many readers, even if they do not immediately recognize exactly what is amiss, they will simply feel that Example 1 is somehow flawed, and that may be enough to turn off those readers. +...and ultimately, a reader should not be turned off by erotica, right? +Hopefully these concepts can provide the beginning erotica writer with things to consider when crafting a sex scene. Of course, there is no ""right"" way to write a sex scene, and not all of the topics addressed here will be valid in every such scene. Still, after more than seven years of writing erotica, these are the issues I consider as I write, and I believe that over time, they have helped me in creating better sex scenes... and better erotica overall.

Authors for ePublishing Houses like New Concepts Publishing, Amber Quill, ExtasyBooks and Ellora's Cave are making rather tidy - and regular - royalties on their erotica novels, but not a fortune. +The Sex-story or Porn Letter on the other hand, is much faster and far easier to crank out at volume. It's also steadier work than erotica and it pays better per word count. ($25.00 to $150.00 per letter at 15,000 words max.) +What? Did you think adult magazine Letters were written by Amateurs? Hell no! Those are professional writers. Trust me, A magazine editor will accept and pay more for a letter written by a professional writer than anything written by an amateur. In addition: the more expensive the magazine, the more they'll (probably) pay their writers. +Note: The writing standards for Erotica Markets are higher than those asking for: Sex Stories. Translation: To write erotica, you have to use basic grammar, characterizations and a PLOT. +Does all this full-time writing sounds like too much work? Ask yourself a very important question: + **~ What is more crucial to your personal writing happiness? ~** +Your Artistic Endeavors? +\- Then you are a ""Recreational writer""; someone who writes for the sheer pleasure of doing something creative.

You have all the traits of a professional Ghostwriter. Most ghostwriters make better money than most authors - because their books sell off the shelves every time. They're writing under someone else's already established and popular name. +What? Did you really think those big-time authors that wrote 3-5 books a year, wrote them All By Themselves??? HELL NO! They have a staff and / or ghostwriters to support them - and that staff gets paid - and paid well. +Making Money - under Your Own Name? +\- That makes you an ""aspiring Author"". Then you certainly have your work cut out for you. This is what Anne Rice writing Adult fiction under the name: AN Roquelaure, and horror author Steven King have done. They worked their butts off writing for their publishers pumping out work after work, after work - all by themselves with no support, until they made a name big enough to dictate their demands to their publishers.

Send the editors `exactly' what they are looking for. `Close' is not good enough. If they are looking for `Romantica' then your story had better be sexually explicit and involve a couple falling in love. You have to have both the sex and the Romance to interest a `Romantica' publisher. +Be willing to work with the editors on requested changes. Many editors try to be gentle with their comments to new authors and have been known to understate what they mean. That does not make their comment random or invalid! If an editor goes to the trouble of noting something about your story, take it very seriously.

I must admit, I found the range of subjects fascinating, and the range of quality astounding. +Some of the authors who post here are excellent writers with vivid imaginations and superior skills. Others are not quite as good, but who, with a little patience and a great deal of editing, could become much better. +There is good information and advice about writing already available on this site, and I would like, hopefully, to add to that body of work. +Before I go any further let me refer you to the 'Writer's Resources' section of the site and recommend that you familiarize yourself with this valuable resource. +If you are truly desirous of improving your skills, I seriously recommend a good book on basic grammar. Your bookseller can direct you. Buy one, read it cover to cover, and refer to it often. The advice regarding English grammar available on this site is conflicting, and sometimes incorrect. Therefore, you would be well served to research this subject independently. +You can use incorrect grammar in your dialogue because your characters may be poor grammarians, with good plot related reasons. Your narrative sections, however, are written as your voice. Poor grammar shouts 'poor writer.' Good writing demands good grammar. +******** +What follows now are my personal thoughts about writing erotica and how I approach the subject when I write a story. +Writing erotica is a little different than writing for other genres. An erotic story focuses on intimate, personal interactions between people. I believe that what makes a story erotic is not the descriptions of characters having sex, but the reader's ability to relate to the characters, as if s/he were part of the story and therefore part of the action. +For me, the best way to accomplish this is to develop realistic, interesting characters. I try to do this through description and dialogue, mostly dialogue. I also go to great lengths to make my writing readable. By readable I mean a natural flow with short paragraphs and easily identified dialogue from my characters. +Realistic characters are easy to create. They are all around you. They may even be you. The trick is to give enough information about your characters so your readers can form a mental picture of the person you are writing about without overloading your story with excessive details. +A brief description is better than a detailed one. Your readers will automatically fill in the details from their own experiences. Just give them the basics and they will create a mental picture of the person they want to 'see.' +For example, here is the description I wrote for the title character of the 'Amanda' series: +""She was wearing a white T-shirt, baby blue shorts, and white sneakers with those short quarter socks. Hers had a blue trim that matched her shorts. From behind, she looked very athletic. Her long blond hair was tied in a ponytail that hung to the middle of her back. She had a slender waist, narrow, almost boyish hips, and a world class tush. Her legs were long and well muscled."" +If you remove the description of the clothing, all that is left is: +""…she looked very athletic. Her long blond hair was tied in a ponytail that hung to the middle of her back. She had a slender waist, narrow, almost boyish hips, and a world class tush. Her legs were long and well muscled."" +A bit later in the story I add: +""She was cute, with a kind of perky look. Maybe it was the blonde bangs, maybe it was the warm, friendly smile, or her clear, healthy complexion."" +The actual description adds to only five lines, but every reader has a mental picture of a cute, athletic girl with bangs, and that image becomes the character for them. Now when they think of Amanda, they are thinking of someone they know, or may want to know, and they relate more closely to both the character and the story. +If you read my stories you will notice I hardly ever describe the male character, the storyteller. I do this so the reader can substitute any male image they want. If a man is reading the story, he can cast himself as the main character. If a woman is the reader, she can choose her own special guy to play the role. Either way, the reader can more easily identify with the characters. +Dialogue is the most important part of character development, at least in my opinion. What your characters say can provide a great deal of information about them. +An example from 'Amanda:' +""At a break in the discussion I said, ""I get the feeling you're not a high- school drop-out."" +""Not high-school, not college, not medical school, not three years of internship, not two years of additional training in internal medicine."" +Just like that, you know she is a physician specializing in internal medicine, and she is not afraid to let you know it. In fact, you can tell she is proud of her accomplishments, and of herself. +Now, I want to discuss 'realistic.' (I know that Wm_Sexspear © recommends against starting a sentence with 'now,' but sometimes I think it is appropriate.) +If you want your readers to identify with your characters, your characters must be realistic, everyday people. Resist the urge to create supermen and superwomen, unless it is really necessary for the plot line of your story. Guys with fifteen-inch cocks are few and far between, and ejaculating women do not exist. Try to stay within the bounds of reason. For that matter, what difference does it make to know the size of a guy's penis? Size is not nearly as important as what he does with it. +Sure you can embellish a little, we all do it. Just try to stay on this side of the realism line. Again, your readers want to be able to identify with your characters, so create realistic characters. +What about the tense you use for your story? I use the past tense, with an occasional aside in the present tense, like when I described the Signature Room in 'Amanda.' +I recommend you use the past tense. You are telling a story about something that happened, not dictating events as you are experiencing them. The past tense is more common for story telling and your readers are more accustomed to it. Why break with literary tradition? +When you have multiple characters in your story, remember that the last mentioned character is doing the present action. An example from 'Thank You Sis' may help explain this. +""With that Liz and Jill jumped up and there were more hug all around and then Pam and Joie left. They said they understood when I didn't offer to walk them to their cars."" +Liz, Jill, Pam, and Joie are all mentioned, but it is Pam and Joie who are the subject of 'They' in the second sentence. Pam and Joie were the last names mentioned. +This is very important to remember when you are writing a scene with more than two characters. If you do not make the proper references, your readers will become confused and will have to stop and reread your words. This creates a break in the flow, and frustrates your audience. You may have to rewrite sections like these a few times to be sure you will be understood. +When to use contractions is another touchy area. Personally, I think contractions are never allowed in good writing, except in quoted dialogue. People use contractions when they speak, so it makes sense to use contractions when quoting them. However, virtually all good writers avoid contractions in the narrative parts of their work. +Finally, about paragraphs. A paragraph should contain only one subject, and for stories intended to be read for entertainment, they should be short! +Also, dialogue starts a paragraph. Every time! When a character talks, start a new paragraph. When another character answers, start a new paragraph. Please. +If a character is giving a long monologue, start a new paragraph every time there is a change of subject. For example: +""I want to tell you about John. He's the biggest guy I ever saw. +""Oh yeah. What do you think about those articles in the paper yesterday?"" +One speaker, two subjects, two paragraphs. Also notice the quotation mark is missing from the end of the first paragraph. If it is the same person speaking, just use quotation marks at the beginning of each paragraph until their dialogue ends. That way, your readers will know it is the same speaker. +Always remember that writing for someone is not the same as speaking with them. When we are face to face, or even on the telephone, we have voice tone, and/or facial expressions, plus the chance to ask for more information, or even explanations. When we write, our readers have only our words on the paper or the screen. If those words do not accurately convey our thoughts, there is no way for our readers to ask for clarification, and our message is lost. +Writing is the art of converting to print what is in our minds, such that a reader will be able to recreate our mental images. This is not easy to do. To do it well takes careful thinking, careful editing, and careful proof reading. +I wish you good writing, high votes, and positive feedback. +Regards, Chicago Bob" +943,The Year of the Rabbit,sophia jane,How To,2006-01-19,2006-01-19,2022-01-04 08:40:38,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/the-year-of-the-rabbit,Getting creative with your rabbit vibe.,"['Clothespin', 'Masturbation', 'Rabbit', 'Toys']",4.25,"Shortly after I separated from my husband, I decided to invest in a Rabbit. After all, I had heard amazing things about them, stories about women having the best orgasms of their life within minutes of pulling their rabbit from its box. Sex and the City even did a show about a rabbit. +I shopped around on the internet and finally settled on a model I could afford. Needless to say, I was anxious to try it out. I've been masturbating for years, but my experience with toys had been limited by budget and an ex who just wasn't all that into toy play. So while it only took a few days for my package to arrive, I had already been waiting for years to try it out! When it arrived, I greedily opened the box, put the batteries in the remote control, stripped off my clothes, and set to work. I wasn't too impressed with the spinning action of the base, so I left that off and focused instead on varying the speed of the rabbit ears, while I slowly pushed the rabbit in and out of my pussy. And I waited. And I waited. And eventually I had an orgasm, but it wasn't all that impressive. In fact, I was completely disappointed in it. What had happened to the mind-blowing orgasm that I was supposed to have? Several times I tried again, always with the same results- a small orgasm, but nothing to write home about. In fact, my hand gave me better orgasms, and I began to wonder if spending the money on a toy had been a total waste. I stopped using it altogether for a few weeks, until I decided I better find out which of us was defective- me or the toy. +After some online research, which included a thread I started on the literotica forum where I got a lot of great advice and encouragement, and a little bit of fantasizing, I decided to give the rabbit another try. This time I got creative, varying the speeds on both controls and changing the angle and pressure against my clitoris. Finally I rolled onto my stomach and very carefully (it's hard to push a vibe in and out when you're laying on your arm, not to mention that laying on top of a toy doesn't give it a lot of room to move) continued to fuck myself with my rabbit. I had a huge orgasm (it took several minutes to recover!), and I finally felt like my investment was worth it. +I've since gotten even more creative with my rabbit. I'm a nipple clamps kind of girl, and have discovered that I also like a little clamp action on my labia. The slight pain is more than worth the orgasm. One day I decided to use my rabbit while my labia were clamped together with a clothespin, and WOW, let me tell you, I haven't been the same since. The feeling of those little rabbit ears vibrating against the clothespin was so incredibly intense that I couldn't orgasm, and I honestly didn't want to- I didn't want it to stop. I had never thought I could get so much pleasure that orgasm would be impossible, and it was a discovery I was very glad to make! Once I removed the clothespin, the rush of blood back into my labia, combined with the vibrations of the ears, sent me into a huge climax. My body literally bucked off the bed several times, something that had never happened to me during masturbation. I've used the rabbit this way several times since, and it is now one of my favorite toys. +I'm still not a big fan of the spinning action of the dildo part of the rabbit. In fact, I can't really figure out what the point of it is. A cock doesn't spin, so it seems kind of silly for a dildo to. But regardless, I enjoy those little rabbit ears immensely, and I still occasionally turn on the spin, just to see if maybe this time I'll enjoy it. +So my advice to toy users, something I wish I had been told before I first started playing: don't expect miracles the first time you play with a toy. It takes time to get used to a toy, just like it takes time to get used to a new partner. Another piece of advice: don't get in the mindset that there's only one right way to play. We're all different and no one toy is going to satisfy every person in the same way. Instead, get creative. Get kinky. Use your imagination, and your toys, in new ways. Eventually you'll find one (or more) that rocks your world." +944,You CAN Teach Old Dogs New Tricks,Hikergirl,How To,2007-05-05,2007-05-05,2022-01-04 08:43:07,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/you-can-teach-old-dogs-new-tricks,How to keep (or increase) spice in a long-term relationship.,"['Communication', 'Marriage Advice', 'Relationship Advice', 'Relationship Help', 'Self-Help', 'Sex Advice']",4.47,"**How to Keep (or Increase) the Spice in a Long-term Relationship** +""What part of another male's anatomy do you find most sexually attractive, and why?"" I innocently ask my husband as we drive own the country road. +""WWHHAAAAT?"" he responds, instantly flustered. ""What kind of question is that?

Either answer the question or use your PASS."" I encourage him further. ""Come on; don't tell me you've never looked at another guy's body."" +""Hmmppff. Not fair."" He thinks a moment. ""OK, I guess I'd have to say well- defined legs; you know - strong calves and thighs."" +""Why?"" I prompt for more. +""Because I respect someone who takes the time to keep fit and a guy with legs like that obviously does"" he says defensively. +""Hmmm. Pretty lame answer, but I guess it will do"" I say grudgingly, realizing I'm not likely to get any more out of him on this one. +""OK, your turn.

I'd love to be able to reach out and stroke one...to feel the weight in my palm. Or to kiss one and feel the nipple harden under my lips."" I squirm a bit in my seat at the image I've painted myself, and I feel the seatbelt press between my breasts. ""You guys get all the fun that way."" +""Well they ARE fun to play with, I'll admit"" my husband responds. ""But the fun isn't just restricted to us guys, you know."" +""What do you mean?"" I ask, knowing full well what he means but wanting to hear him say it. +""Come on. Haven't you ever thought of being with another woman?"" he grins. ""I know I've thought about you with another woman...that would be so hot to watch."" +""Oh no you don't! That's another question...and it's not on the card."" I refuse to answer, but squirm a bit more as I imagine what he's thinking about. +My husband lets out a deep fake sigh of exasperation; while I consult the map, and point out that we have to turn right at the next gravel road. +I pull another card from the deck. ""OK. Describe an actual experience or fantasy about outdoor sex."" +* * * * * +And so goes our game of learning more about each other, what turns each other on, and how to please each other. But first, a bit of background. +My husband and I have been together for 26 years this month, since I was eighteen years old. I'd had no previous sexual experience when we met at university, and his was very limited, so pretty much everything we learned about sex, we learned together over the years. We have both always had healthy sex drives and were eager to please each other, but like most other couples, our sex lives would wax and wane with the realities of adult life: jobs, shift work (ugggh!), mortgages, kids, house maintenance, volunteer work...you get the picture. +After 23 years, our sex life was still better than most of the people that we knew; we could still turn each other on and have long enthusiastic romps in bed, but it was also fairly predictable. Shift work schedules, school schedules, and teenagers who never seemed to sleep when we wanted privacy, meant that even sex sort of became scheduled' it was definitely less spontaneous and imaginative. +When the kids were finally old enough to be left alone, we decided it was time for an ""us"" weekend. Looking back, we probably should have started these earlier in our marriage, but it always seemed too difficult or too expensive. Now we realize how valuable these weekends are -- they are truly an investment in our relationship. But I digress. +I did some research and found a secluded cabin in the middle of rolling farmland, far away from anything or anybody. In the weeks leading up to this getaway, we both did some scheming and planning, intending to make the most of our private time away. I was perusing our favorite online sex shop for ideas, when I saw a deck of cards meant to provoke erotic discussions, and on impulse, I ordered it. +When the cards first arrived, I was kind of disappointed, thinking I didn't get much for my $22. The cards were obviously homemade, printed on an inkjet printer on beige card stock, with a tacky pair of red lips on one side and a question printed on the other. The questions ranged from fairly innocent to graphically explicit. There were about 60 cards in the deck, and the rules were simple. Draw a card from the deck, and both of you have to answer the same question. If you are worried that one of you might get too uncomfortable, you can issue one or more free ""PASSES"" per game. +Feeling a bit ripped off, I thought ""what the heck"" and threw them in my purse, intending to tell my husband about my foolish purchase on our drive to the cabin. Well, as you may have guessed by now, they were well worth the money. They prompted open, honest communication that has turned up the heat on an already great sex life. +* * * * * +And that is the point of this ""How To"" article....TALK to your partner about your sex life! +Cards like the ones I bought are a great way to get the discussion going. I'd love to be able to point you to the set I bought, but the shop that I bought them from no longer seems to carry them. But you could always make up your own. If you do so, both of you should come up with questions, and remember, you BOTH have to answer each question. Better yet, get some friends to contribute questions (maybe even anonymously), because they may think of things you wouldn't have thought of, or are too shy to bring up with your partner. +Ideally, the questions should push your boundaries a bit, but remember there is no right or wrong answers, and you should never pressure your partner into accepting your view. Feel free to disagree, but do so in a way that is not judgmental. +Here are some of the questions that I remember: +• Describe your earliest sexual thought. +• What do you think about when you masturbate? +• Describe your wildest sexual experience or fantasy. +• What is one thing that a person can do that really flips your switch, that turns you on instantly? +• Do you enjoy watching porn, and if so, what types and why? +• Describe a sexual situation where you felt you were giving up control. What did you enjoy or dislike about it? +• Describe an experience or fantasy involving someone of the same sex. +• Have you ever had, or wanted to have, sex in your workplace (or airplane, or park, etc.) +• What do you think is your sexiest asset, and why? +• Does it excite you to watch your partner masturbate, or to have your partner watch you? Why or why not? +• Describe an experience or fantasy involving more than one other person. +• Which part of your body is most easily aroused? How do you like to be touched? +• Describe what feels best when you receive oral sex. +If you or your partner aren't used to discussing such things so openly, set up a non-threatening environment. Maybe have a glass of wine to relax, or take the cards out while you are walking in the woods. We find the car on the way to our getaway place ideal because we are already in the right frame of mind, and we aren't looking eye-to-eye. Somehow, that makes things easier when questions stray into new territory, but you can also miss the arousal in your partner's eyes this way. +Not only will these discussions help you learn about your partner, I'm willing to bet that the discussions themselves will be highly arousing. I know by the time we reach our destination, we're both ready to bolt from the car and into the bedroom...or the kitchen...or the barn...you get the picture. +And once you become more accustomed to sharing these thoughts, you'll find them easier to share on a more spontaneous basis. Wouldn't you love it if your partner came up behind you while you're making dinner and whispered in your ear ""I was thinking about bending you over my desk and taking you from behind while I was at work today""? I know it would make me shiver! +* * * * * + _Hmmm...six weeks until our next trip to the cabin.

Ozzy was still perceived as some dove- devouring, Satanic psychopath, as opposed to the pablum-eating shell of a marketing ploy he's become. +Even in those prehistoric times, it behooved a single, swingin' dude to possess what would be the equivalent of a head shot for an actor. +Polaroids, man! In the early '90s, they were imperative. Back then, you got 10 shots for 10 bucks. Hence, takin' a decent picture of your huevos and all-beef sausage was an expensive endeavor, financially magnified when heroically attempted alone. +Slick, glossy-paged copies of Hustler in your left hand, a one-shot camera — coated in baby oil — in your right, it was damned near impossible to capture your special purpose in frame.

I'm certain you can see how costly this endeavor was for somebody like myself, who is the antithesis of Ansel Adams. +Combine all this with the fact you were responding via snail mail, and things became even more complex. When you consider the time it took for those who placed the ad to answer your reply, you may be looking at weeks in the waiting. +Of course, one also ran the risk of flakes, and no shows. There were instances in which I shelled out 40 bucks in Polaroids, six greenbacks in lubricant, and a few dollars in mailing fees, only to discover the couple in question were filing for divorce. +Thankfully, most of this is behind the single swinger.

Would you believe me? You should because it’s true. Let me tell you about the joys of a simple device, the Cock Ring. +My adventures with this wonderful toy started with a simple gesture by my girlfriend. She wears about 12 industrial rubber belts around her wrist as bracelets. She gave me one of them as a kind of remember-me-by item for when we were apart. One day I was thinking about her, and the last time we were together, and the amazing sex we had, and I began to masturbate. I had the bracelet on and my mind recollected an article I had read about cock rings and how they worked. I took the bracelet from my wrist and stretched it over the top of my erect penis, and under my testicles. It felt interesting to have my balls lifted forward like that, but it was not tight enough to restrict the flow of blood back into the body, as a cock ring should. I put one finger under the band at the side of my balls and twisted it around once to tighten it. I felt my cock grow harder, the head swelled, and the veins on the sides stood out and became really sensitive. It felt amazing! I used a lubricant and masturbated. Usually using a lube I don’t last long by myself, normally coming in about 3 to 5 minutes. This lasted for 15 minutes and it was intense. When I did finally come it was a bed shaking, moaning, shoot-the-wall-behind-me orgasm. It was the first masturbatory orgasm I have ever had that I had to recover from before being able to just get up and do the next thing. +I went out and bought a commercial cock ring the same day, a simple ½” wide 12” long piece of surgical tubing with a plastic tension bead keeping it in an adjustable loop. I tried it again by myself and it worked even better since I did not have to keep my free hand there to keep the tension up. I loved it and was able to keep it tighter longer than with the bracelet. +The next time I saw my lovely girlfriend I had the smile of a man with a devious plot on my face. She was giddy with excitement when I sat her on the bed and put a blindfold on her (another toy I highly recommend). I put on the ring and waited a few seconds for it to take full effect, and then I put the head of my cock to her lips. She usually likes to suck my dick with a certain enthusiasm, but this time she felt the head swollen and the veins popping and she was overcome with lust. She sucked me like a starving woman devours a doughnut. She took off the blindfold, looked at my throbbing member and without a word put a condom on me, lies back, and spread her legs wide. We are usually sensitive and caring lovers, but that night the sex was animalistic. She was able to come from penetration, which is unusual for her, and it lasted a good long time before I came. When I did come it exploded out of me. She said she could feel every contour of my penis and when I came she felt me pulse and swell more than usual. That last feeling of me swelling is what made her come. +The way the cock ring works is by restricting the flow of blood from the penis back into the body. Blood flows into the penis through the center of the shaft, but flows back through the outer veins. By tightly restricting the outside you let blood in but not out, and your cock gets really hard and textured. It also makes the nerves more sensitive. +There are a few varieties of rings to consider. I recommend the basic one loop adjustable type as they work well, are easily adjusted and removed, and are practically impossible to get stuck in. Some are still rubbery but are a one- piece loop that is not adjustable. These can work if the size is right, but may not fit correctly. There are also some varieties that are made of hard plastic or metal and are not adjustable. I do not recommend these as it is very easy to get them stuck and not be able to remove them. Metal ones that get stuck routinely end up getting cut off in emergency rooms accompanied by much laughter by the staff and humiliation by the patient. Stay with adjustable ones for your safety and sanity. Lastly there are varieties which have multiple loops to secure your cock, spread or stretch your scrotum downward, constrict the base of the penis and around the cock and balls together. I have yet to try them, but experiment and see what you like. +Sex is wonderful and should be good even without all the bells and whistles, but if you’d like to try something fun and inexpensive to spice things up, give a cock ring a try." +947,You Want Oral? Here's How,BBWmomma,How To,2011-05-16,2011-05-16,2022-01-04 08:43:09,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/you-want-oral-heres-how,One woman's guide on eating pussy to get a BJ,"['Cunnilingus', 'Licking', 'Munching', 'Oral Sex', 'Pussy']",4.42,"The best oral sex I've ever had went something like this: +1\. Set the mood. Candles, music, clean bedding, fluffy pillows, maybe some restraints (if you're into that kind of stuff), and make sure you're both clean and ready for fun. +2\. Start out slow. There should be no rush. Take your time touching each other, running your hands up and down bodies (torsos, arms, legs, face, through the hair, avoid errogenous zones for now and build the tension elsewhere). Make good use of your mouths- wet open kisses, caressing tongues, soft lips. Kiss your partner's mouth, her cheeks, eyelids, neck, shoulder blades, collar bones, down her throat, etc. +3\. Listen for cues- moans and panting, breathy whispers are all good. No noise, throat grumbing, sharp intake of breath... those are bad. Move on and try something else +4\. Slowly increase the pleasure. start skimming your hands over her breasts, put more pressure on spots you know she likes, work to get her turned on. At this point, if you skim your hand between her legs, you should be able to feel heat, and depending on what she's wearing, wetness. +5\. Unwrap the prize. Maybe she's wearing lingerie for you, maybe she's still dressed. What ever it is, as you slide off her clothes, trace the path with your hands and mouth. Keep touching, make her moan and squirm (trust me, its a good thing). +6\. Zero in on the target. When you're both so turned on you can't wait anymore, use your hands to let her know you're starving for the taste of her. Rub gently over her belly, glide your fingers across her thighs, slowly part them. Dip a finger into her slit and GENTLY brush her clit..... I'm sure you get the picture. The key is to go slow and gentle, it will torment her more and its just more fun. +7\. GET COMFORTABLE! Girls take longer than men, you should know this by now. I recommend splurging for a Liberator Esse, it is a big girls best friend, and its FANTASTIC for oral.... Anyway. Get comfortable. If you're laying between her knees, make sure you have support for yourself, maybe put a pillow under her butt to tilt her up for you. You want your hands free, so don't restrict those to your braces. +8\. Tease your girl. Lick up the insides of her thighs, skim across her pussy WITHOUT touching it to do the other leg. Gently flick your tongue against her skin. Slowly slide a finger into her (She'll most likely LOVE that). By now she should be panting, maybe scratching at your shoulders or grabbing your hair, maybe even begging you to taste her. Smile, (she'll feel it if you do it against her) and nuzzle her cleft with your nose or cheeks, and drive her just a little bit more wild. +9\. Taste test. You know neither of you can wait anymore, so go ahead. Take a little taste. Keep your tongue soft, and use the flat part of it to skim between her lips. Short, shallow strokes the entire length her her cleft. Suck those plump lips into your mouth, nibble at them, if you've got a big mouth, try to close it over both at once. Increase the pressure with your tongue, lapping up and down, licking up the juices. Flick it GENTLY over her clit depending on how sensitive she is. +10\. USE BOTH HANDS! It's like little league- coaches are always telling you to use both hands, so USE THEM. My personal favorite is when the giver takes both hands, and spreads the lips far apart with their thumbs, opening the delicate flower to their own pleasure. If makes me feel wide open and extremely submissive. Do that, and you can do what ever the hell you want to. It also makes the clit a very easy target. Lick it, flick it with your tongue, suck it into the mouth, whatever you can to make your girl scream. +11\. Don't for get the Gspot. When you're girl is getting close, and your tongue starts to fail you (we know it gets exhausted....), don't forget about the inside. Slide a finger (or 2 or 3) inside, hook it in a come her fashion (like when your mom was mad at you when you were a kid in trouble) and find the spongy, odd feeling clump in the roof of your girls vagina. Stroke your fingers against it, put a good amount of pressure behind it, and suck on her clit at the same time. You'll be lucky to get your fingers back when she comes, because she's going to clamp down on those and not let go till she's all tuckered out. +12\. Post Game. Whatever you do, don't just pull away when you're done. keep working her till she tells you to stop, and when she lets you go, kiss the OUTSIDE of her mound (the inside is going to be extremely sensitive), up her thighs, belly, chest, and give your girl a kiss. Don't push for yours right away, because she's gonna need some recovery, but don't worry. She'll be more than willing to return the favor...." +948,Your New Male Slave,CoupleInExile,How To,2013-09-08,2013-09-08,2022-01-04 08:43:10,1,literotica.com,https://www.literotica.com/s/your-new-male-slave,How to train your slave - the first week.,"['Bdsm', 'Chastity', 'Enslavement', 'Femdom', 'Mistress', 'Owner', 'Pain', 'Slavery', 'Submission', 'Training']",3.98,"So you've taken a slave. Congratulations! Chances are, you really haven't given much thought to 'What now?' It's all been fun play for a few hours. But. If you really want a *real* slave, you'll need to invest some time and effort in consummating your new property arrangement. Your new possession may be naturally submissive (or not! even more fun!), but you need to take him much deeper and much further into total obedience to get your greatest reward. And trust me -- there's much pleasure and discovery for you as well in this task. +It's so worth it. To see a man's tears as he suffers for you purely because you've driven him into total submission will make your soul and pussy vibrate. And, he will be a real slave if you train him properly. And you will be free to enjoy all the pleasures of a mistress/owner -- his complete devotion to your sexual pleasure, if you are a sadist, his true and frequent pain and suffering, and the freedom to have sex with whomever you choose. +But how to get there without spending your every moment in the dungeon? I mean,*really*, who's the slave here?? It's really quite simple. Yes, you do need to make him regularly submit to domination and pain in a formal setting. But you shouldn't need more than a few hours a week so focused. The rest of the time, you need to set out a structure of slave training tasks to train your former lover's mind into that of a true slave. And you do need your slave focused exclusively on your training -- 24x7 -- he'll need to take off work if needed -- this will be a real special 'vacation' for him. A no-return trip! +Let's talk a few basics. First and foremost -- chastity. Any man losing control of his cock to you is automatically putty in your hands. Let's face it -- that's where half his brain is normally. Some, more. With the keys in your hand, and no chance of release, his chastity will be a constant 24x7 reminder of his new status. Every time he moves, it will feel like you are pulling him around by his cock. Better, his erections as he performs his other slave tasks for you will be inevitable -- and quite uncomfortable. Don't relent to his whining -- a male slave needs to be completely sexually controlled. And no safety keys -- he must know he's committed. +But he will need encouragement. Constantly remind him how he's given himself to you and how you cherish the sacrifice -- but he needs this training to really become yours. And doesn't he really want your satisfaction in his servitude? Trust me -- he will be constantly aroused. And, frankly, associating arousal with pain and frustration is very much what you want to achieve. We want to train his mind more than his body. +Ok. Chastity. Check. Probably one of the most compelling things you can do to his head is to have him sign a slavery contract. There are hundreds of online samples. Pick the verbiage you like best. If you're serious, make sure it's explicit. No safewords or any way for the slave to terminate. Better, get him to read it while you record him before he signs it. But once he's uttered the words ""I am your owned slave, mistress"", he will remember them always... +Both of these can be sorted in your first session as owner and slave. Not your first session -- you really should be starting this from an already established domme/sub, and, hopefully, intimate relationship. The Mistress / slave relationship can and should be highly intimate. If you don't really love your slave, you're really missing the best part of their surrender -- their demonstration of their total devotion to you, and allowing you to make it formal and permanent. +For the first week, you really need to make sure your slave actually *feels* as though he's your slave, even as you carry on normal parts of your life. But to transform him, he needs to be in as close to 24x7 submission as possible. After signing and the contract and accepting the chastity, he's in a fragile state that you want to exploit but having him constantly feel ing submission. +The first task is pretty obvious -- he must change his bathroom habits so he's always sitting. His chastity will enforce that. Like a woman, he will need to have tissue to hand to dab himself. And you'll never have to deal with a raised seat again! But, a slave needs humiliation. And there's the practical matter of making him ready to accept your own piss, should you choose to use him in that fashion. My recommendation is that you also assign to him as the final part of his bathroom ritual, before he flushes, cleaning of the seat so it will be pristine for you. And, of course, that means with his tongue -- top and bottom. Yes, maybe allow him to clean it once properly with cleansers and such before the first time  - you will be amazed how spotless it's kept from now on! And there's nothing hotter than your former lover, now slave, on his knees making your commode brilliant Just think how clean *you* will feel each time you use it! Maybe extend the task to include after your own use of it! I personally make my slave also clean both my toilet and my privates with his tongue whenever possible after I've used it. It will also force him to keep much better mouth hygiene. +But that's perhaps an hour of his waking day ... so much more time you need him to stay focused on his new status during this initial period. If you are a sadist, even just domme, I'd suggest rituals that will build his tolerance. My slave has very sensitive nipples, and I generally *love* to torture them in dungeon sessions. To keep them ultra-sensitive, when my slaves are in training, I have them perform a ritual of attaching clover clamps to them. Because they go numb, I do ask my slaves to put them on and remove them 5 times -- 2 minutes on, one minute off. If one slips early ... oh, well. Doesn't count ;). I then make them repeat the process at specific hours of the day so I can call and check. With modern video tools, a mistress doesn't need to be present to supervise. And, the threat of extending the chastity period for slacking is usually quite persuasive. Just to add to the effect, I make my slaves-in-training (or punishment) perform this ritual five times per day, including and especially at least once in the middle of the night. As I said, our goal is to get our slave in training to mentally associate his desires with submission to pain for our pleasure. Getting up at all hours to do this for you will emphasize your ownership and his obedience to it. +So ... we've filled up lots of free time! But, we can't allow idle thoughts. I think it best to always emphasize a slave's vulnerability by ordering him to remain naked throughout as much of the day and night as possible. Similarly, other signs of his status are important. A locked slave collar is very compelling at all hours. He can wear a high necked shirt if he needs to be in public. At night, I like him to add cuffs or other restraints so that whenever he stirs in his sleep, he's brought back to his new status immediately. Not uncomfortably -- this is training, not punishment. And we want him rested and ready to serve us. Just some cuffs and short chains or links will do fine. +I like to order my slave to find me videos and stories of male slavery. There are thousands to scan. And the act of reading and viewing, while in chastity will be a constant torment. And you will profit from a constant stream of delicious new ideas. And you'll also be getting your slave to both cultivate and expose his darkest submissive desires by his curation. Delicious. Hours of pleasure for me, hours of torment for him. +I also like to add more active ritual for my slave. In addition to the self- inflicted nipple torture, I expect my slave to do a half hour per day of anal training and a half hour of oral training. By the end of the first week, he should be well ready to deep throat, and his backside will be much looser and easier for your enjoyment. Plugs or any dildo is fine. Obviously, start small for a new slave. +In all these activities, we want to discourage slacking. So we want to include copious photos and videos of your new possession meeting your requests. In addition, some photos with your name marked on him prominently is always a good idea. Your contract should include your right to expose these if your slave ever tries to leave you. If you register your slave, you may want his number painted on a few places so you can decide how you ultimately want him marked. Another contract item -- be sure to include your right to mark his body as your property, however you choose. You have that right anyway if he's a proper slave, but making him say those terms and sign to them... he'll be so much more manageable. +We also want to include a few tasks a bit more humiliating. He is your slave, so he should feel your right to enjoy his fears and humiliations. I'd suggest some small things. A little feminization, perhaps. I usually make my new slaves polish their nails several times during their first week. A bright color, of course, fingers and toes. And it will train him how to do the task for you. Also, if you can find footwear that will fit him, making him walk a half hour per day in heels will teach him a lesson in the comfort of such things! I also make my slave visit the local pool daily and circle it a prescribed number of times wearing the thinnest of suits. His metal chastity is clearly outlined. And some women I know that understand his status are always about to tease him. My final coup de grace is usually to have him put on feminine underclothes, full makeup and lipstick and make a video of a walk through the local mall. Oh the surprised looks he records! Trust he's begging to do anything to avoid that task again! +Finally, the most prosaic of tasks should also be made into a slave ritual. What little time is left in the day s usually for preparing meals -- naked -- and eating. My new slaves are only allowed to eat from bowls on the ground. I also make them eat dog food the first week. It sounds horrible, but it isn't all that bad tasting (so I'm told!) and it's nutritious enough. And it is so reinforcing of his new status. He's your pet and possession. And any time for preparing meals can be spent on you! It's also great to feed him from your hand, if you have the time. As a special initiation, I also make it a point to feed my slave the 'gravy' style of dog food. I expect I will regularly acquaint him with drinking my piss, but in this tender new stage, I frequently command him to use his own. The shock and humiliation are priceless. After the first session, I really felt his soul was now utterly mine. +So many tasks! But that's the idea. Simple, time-consuming, and very slavish and humiliating tasks. We're training your man's head. If he's not responded to the training in a week ... oh, well. On we go! Sooner or later, total slavery will take over his thoughts and your life together will go on to new and more special chapters. Cherish his devotion. Love him madly and encourage him. Punishments will be yours to enjoy later. If he's faltering, just be patient and enjoy his efforts.

You know that , don't you? +I just wanted to show her...to let her know. +Oh, God, John. +I kissed her. +I couldn't help it. +It was just a little kiss. +It was just like: affectionate to let her know she was so nice. +She drew away a little. +I was so embarrassed I did that! +But Kim was so understanding, John. +She didn't get upset. +She explained she knew I was by myself and maybe I was lonely and she told me she understood. +She made me feel OK about it....and that was so cool. +I don't know.....it was so spontaneous, John. +She even held my hand to reassure me. +She made me feel...... at ease with what I did. +Then Kim started to compliment me; telling me how pretty I was and that any man...or woman...would naturally be attracted to me. +She explained how she had been watching me moving behind the bar. +And the way I looked ...anyone would think I was sexy. +Then John, she told me... +If I wanted to kiss her again it would be OK! +Oh, God, it was all I wanted to do! +I wanted to kiss her so bad! +And I did. +Kimberly didn't pull away. +She let me. +I felt her squeeze my hand. +Her lips were soft. +John, I heard her sigh and knew she liked it. +Our lips were on each others. +She smelled so wonderful and so feminine. +I tested her kiss, then. +She let my tongue on hers. +Soon our tongues were all over one anothers. +John.... +John, there in the front seat of my car our arms were around each other. +It was dark in the parking lot. +I felt her touch me. +I felt her hold me. Oh God it was so good! +She opened her mouth to mine. +Kimberly's open mouth kisses were so....wonderful +all I wanted was more and more. +I couldn't get enough. +As soon as we'd break away, Kim could hear me gasp. +She let me kiss her neck, her throat. +I had my hands in her hair. +She moaned like it was what she had been waiting for all night! +I couldn't help myself. +your wife is so lovely John. +Her soft skin, the taste of her, her gorgeous hair and the nape of her neck just begged to be kissed. +There in the darkness of my car she let me hold her. +She let me kiss her. +Her kisses back.... were exciting me like I couldn't believe. +They thrilled me. +Her tongue was all over mine. +We kissed so long and so deep. +John, Kimberly is wonderful. +Her body seemed voluptuous underneath those clothes. +The way your wife's breasts were so full with their own weight +Made me want to discover them +So obvious under her pretty dress; +it was so certain she had intentionally spent a lot of time looking nice for her night out with the girls. +She had let me single her out and separate her from that little flock of girlfriends +made it all the more exciting. +The way she kisses, tastes and smells...even how she was dressed that night... +I was intoxicated. +Everything about this older woman was new and exciting. +Yes, I'm Bi. +But I'm not a lesbian if you know what I mean +I do have a true lesbian friend who is a real ""player"" +She told me something about married women that I never understood. +She said that 60% of all straight women have lesbian fantasies. +That it was proven in case studies and surveys. +At least half of those actually act on their desires. +That's like....every one in three straight women act on their curiousity. +And there are more out there than actually admit it. +Society is so ...open today +Then she said what excited her most were the few liaisons she had with heterosexual women. +Married women. +Married with jobs, a house and families. +Women who thought they would never have a lesbian relationship. +She also told me straight women require so much work: so much attention. +But the one's who submitted were the most sensual. +None of those straight women ever expected the arousal which came from a female lover, she said. +She would describe how they would resist. +Then describe the strange ways in which they submitted. +How willing they were in the end. +How responsive. +Their first time with her. +That's when I suddenly realized what my friend meant. +Kimberly had been so coy. +And it wasn't like I was trying to coerce your wife, really I wasn't John. +But I sensed Kim was playing out fantasies all night with me in particular! +Her attention to me at the bar was more than friendliness. +She was watching me the whole time she was talking to her friends. +She was making eye contact. +She was getting my attention whenever she could. +John. +Your wife is so beautiful and so sexy. +Her breasts, John... +Kim's are so full. So voluptuous. +They...... invited me, there is no other way to put it. +You haven't asked me about my breast size, John. +I'm surprised. +Or my measurements either haved you? +I thought you'd like to know +I'm a 34B-26-38 +I'm so bi-sexual. I know it. I accept it. +My girl partners, and honestly there are not many, have always been girls my age or younger. +They were always tight athletic and honestly...small breasted. +But your wife, John? +She is so much more mature. +Your wife, OMG! +So sexy with so much more that makes you want to explore every curve. +I reached and touched them. +She let me. +She looked down at my hand doing it. +She whispered my name. +""Heather is there someplace we can go?"" she asked. +My apartment was nearby, I explained +She said: ""yes."" +I started my car and drove us to my place. +Sitting next to me, Kim was so vibrant and mature. +Her dress was up her legs more than necessary. +Those hoop earrings peeking from under her pretty hair all done so nicely. +, that classy jewelry she wore. +The smell of her so inviting. +I'm just in my work slacks and blouse. +I'm driving to my apartment +And your wife is sitting there next to me like a treasure. +I reached over and touched her leg John. +She was so smooth in her pantyhose. +She didn't resist. +Kim opened her legs to my hand John. +I slid it up her thigh. +She took her hand and rested it on my arm gently. +She let me do whatever I wanted. +There on Kim's finger was your engagement ring and her wedding band. +It was so impossible shimmering there in the faint light of my car! +That this beautiful married woman would ignore those rings and be tempted by me... +It was a special thrilling kind of excitement! +Your pretty wife opened those legs...... +My fingers were on the crotch of her pantyhose. +She was letting me touch. +I could feel the mound of her pussy. +I could sense her wetness on my fingers. +Somewhere during the evening your wife had removed her panties. +Or maybe she never put them on to start with? +She let me. +Kim wanted me there, John. +I caressed her shielded pussy until her dress rode up her waist +And her hips wriggled to the edge of the passenger seat. +I caressed that hungry pussy through those pantyhose our whole drive to my apartment. +Even at every stoplight. +Her head found my shoulder. +She touched me in ways no married woman would touch another female. +My nipples were hard under my bra. +She whispered things to me that no heterosexual woman would ever say to a 22 year old young mother. +I was so fucking hot for your wife, John. +At my apartment +I paid the babysitter and sent her home. +Kimberly sat on my sofa. +I got us a glass of wine. +Suddenly Kim seemed hesitant. +And I sensed her reverting. +Your wife became confused and restless. +unsure of what was going to happen in my apartment. +And you know what? +My lesbian friends words came back to haunt me. +""Heather, married women need so much attention. They are so much work."" +I never knew or cared what was in that statement before. +But now I knew for sure what my lesbian friend had meant. +This was my first time with someone as wonderful as your wife, John. +I didn't want to Kim to change her mind. +She was more than some prize...I truly needed to be with her +Desperately +I thought to myself, ""Not now, please!"" +Your wife had led me along this far I just couldn't let her go. +I just couldn't. +I would beg her if I had to! +The wine helped some. +She hadn't asked to leave, which was good. +I tried to think of something quickly that would relax her. +And take Kim's mind off her apprehension. +I was desperate. +I started talking about the way I felt about her. +I explained how wonderful the evening had been for me: meeting her, talking with her and now...being alone with her. +I told her I knew in my heart she was interested in me. +I didn't know what to do. +I only knew your wife was probably thinking about her life, her family...and John...probably her unfaithfulness to her husband. +I was desperate to come up with something to distract her. +I told her I wanted to show her something. +I opened my laptop on the coffee table. +John....has your wife ever watched porn? +We all have from time to time but I was curious if Kim ever had? +She was non-committal. She wouldn't admit if she ever had. +But you know what I think? +She has. +Maybe it was softcore like the L Word or different girl-girl stuff on TV that she thought about later... privately. +I asked Kim about certain fantasies she might have had....we're they like mine? +Those things that made us curious ...made both of us search out more ....uh, information... +So I rushed into opening the screen right there on the coffee table in front of us. +I quickly said +that maybe it would be fun to watch something erotic for a minute or two. +.......two attractive women together. +It had taken only a minute to open, +But there it was in front of us. +Kim wasn't uncomfortable with the images at all, John. +At first she giggled some. +But then she got quiet. +She began watching so carefully. +With all her attention. +And I knew what was going through her mind. +Other women were doing what she was about to do. +classy women. +These weren't sluts on the screen before her. +They were beautiful lesbian actresses. +Their joy was obvious. +Real. +Unscripted. +And erotic in the most feminine of situations leaving no doubt in Kim's mind I am sure, that +So many other women had thoughts like hers +So many more acted on those impulses. +She wasn't alone. +On the contrary. +I used that moment, John. +We sat together +I began to touch your wife +The way I wanted to....since almost the first moment she caught my eye in the bar. +I was finally holding those wonderful breasts, +Squeezing them through Kim's thin dress and bra: +making your wife want to kiss me. +John.... +Do you feel like masturbating? +Are you holding your cock now? +because +I want you to. +I want you to hold you cock. +please go slow for me. +please don't come yet. +I have so much more to say. +I want to describe what your wife and I were doing fully +I want you to hear from me everything the two of us did in my apartment. +There.. +we could only hear the actresses passion. +Our eyes had closed. +We held each other, embracing side by side, knees together, hip to hip our bodies together kissing while I fondled her sitting together on the sofa. +I stroked her, I squeezed her. +And then John, my hand went up her thigh again, just like in my car. +she opened those warm thighs again for me. +My fingers were caressing hot pussy underneath the crotch panel of her pantyhose. +She opened the belt of her dress for me John. +So I could get my hand underneath those pantyhose. +We were kissing so long and so deep. +Girls can kiss the whole night. +Your wife knows how to kiss, omg! +Her lips, her mouth and her tongue were all over mine. +John she had become so wet for me. +Kim doesn't shave . I felt those soft curls... +So soft and damp. +I had my fingers against your wife's pussy. +John. +I rubbed her. +I did it for so long, John...touching and opening her cunt gaping wide +I had my fingers inside her. +Deep up inside her warm wet pussy. +Kim fucked them, John... there is no other explanation. +She was becoming more an more uninhibited. +I found her G-spot and massaged it, entering and withdrawing my fingers from her wet vagina. +Your wife moaned and kissed me harder. +I felt her hands on my breast! +Her touch was tentative at first. +But then she wanted my blouse opento get at them. +She pulled my bra down over the top of my breasts. +She was playing with my nipples. +Squeezing my breasts. +I told her John... +I told her I wanted them sucked. +I get fingering her pussy. +Then Kim started kissing them. +Then John....she was sucking them...sucking on them so good. +Oh, God... +Your wife's lips were like heaven. +She was sucking my nipples so fucking good. +They were all wet with her spit. +The more I fingered her +The more passionate she got with them. +I found her clitoris. +It was this beautiful wet bud: hungry to come. +I scissored it. I rolled three fingers about its circumference. +I dipped them up inside her again, then came back to rub her clitoris some more. +I whispered, ""Kim I want you to come for me."" +That was all it took. +Your wife started to come for me. +It was so fucking hot. +She broke away from my titties and crushed her mouth to mine. +My wrist was trapped by the elastic band of her pantyhose. +And I put those fingers way up inside her . I could feel the bump of her g-spot on my fingertips. +I stiffened them and massaged it. +Those full hips came up off the sofa. +She was crying and groaning so loud I thought she'd wake the baby. +I didn't stop. +I finger-fucked that pussy hard and fast +She squirmed and fucked at my fingers! +It was so intense for her....she stopped kissing me and threw back her head. +Oh how I watched your wife's face then. +Her tightly knit brows, her open mouth gasping, the tightening of her body. +She held on to me , gripping and holding wherever she could. +She was so excited. +She ended by fucking my fingers so hard! +she came for me, John +I felt her vagina seize both fingers. Your beautiful wife's pussyhole grasped them, held my fingers tight +I felt the walls of her vagina grasp..... and hold ......and pulse while she had her orgasm! +Oh, god.... the way Kim came for me. +She couldn't have had an orgasm in a long time. +Although it was hiked up around her waist, she was still in her dress. +It had happened so quickly. +My wrist was still held snugly by the waistband of her pantyhose. +And I waited until my fingers felt the last faint, small pulse +Up inside her babyhole. +I was watching her until she opened her eyes and looked at me.. +I was so fucking hot for her , John. +I started getting her out of that dress. +And She didn't stop me. +I was kissing her like crazy while I took off her clothes. +I took off her shoes and stripped those pantyhose off her beautiful legs. +I wanted to see those breasts. +I wanted them in my face. +I wanted to taste them...to suck them. +Kim was pulling my blouse off. +She was trying to get my slacks off. +I helped her. +Oh, God, your wife's breasts were so fucking awesome. +So full....her swollen nipples all erect. +Oh fuck I wanted them so bad. +They were in my mouth. +I was sucking them ....so good \\! +Her areolas were puffy and swollen +Your wife's nipples got so hard, John. +They were in my mouth. +She held my face as I moved my lips from one to the other. +She was trying to kiss me in between. +Go ahead John. +I want you to... +Let your fingers be soft and gentle on that aching cock of yours. +Tease it for her John. +Tease it for your obsessed little wife. +Your cock is waiting isn't it? +Make that stiff erection yearn for her lesbian submission.. +She couldn't help herself John.... +Why should you resist? +Kim couldn't stop just as you cannot help yourself now. +Tease your aching cock for her. +Don't resist the urge....not now.... +Show me you want your wife's desire fulfilled by another woman....and that it excites you.... +You know...that your wife loves to be kissed, John, oh my God. +Her mouth is so soft +The way she tongued me. +Her full soft lips on mine, OMG. +Everything slowed down then. +I wanted to be between her legs. +I told her so. +She stared at me. +I told her I wanted to taste her this way. +I even put my pussyfingers in my mouth to prove it. +My lips were soon covered with the aroma of her mature pussy. +She stared at me. +I reached my mouth to her lips and kissed them with mine. +Kim's tongue was in my mouth in an instant! +John.... +I started going down between your wife's legs. +I pushed the coffee table back. +I knelt on the carpeting between her open legs. +She was staring into my eyes. +She let me pull her hips to the sofa's edge. +She opened her legs wide for me. +I reached up to hold those voluptuous hips of hers. +I knew she would be extra sensitive. +So I covered the mound of her pussy with gentle kisses first. +She moaned, John....waiting for me. +Then I started licking that beautiful mature pussy she was lifting towards my mouth. +Your wife tastes so fucking good, John. +So feminine.
